A small Spatial ship landed in one of the bays of the Gryphon as people rushed around. The rear hatch opened and a lithe woman with auburn hair stepped out. She glanced around the bay with a subtle smile on her face. She noted the man clad in powered armor walking towards her with another man in tow.
"Dr. Emery. Thank you for coming." said the man. She noted the logo emblazed on his chest alongside the SLRC logo.
"The Pathfinders, I see Sailas' dream came to fruition." she motioned to the logo. It was very subtle, but the man behind Dante flinched at hearing the name Sailas. She glanced to the man briefly before returning her attention to the man. "Mr. Flintlocke, I take it. Who is your companion?"
"This is Pathfinder Liam." It was Roses turn to flinch at the name.
"Liam, eh?" she briefly snarled at the name. The Pathfinder behind Dante remained frozen, his hands behind his back. "Nice to meet you both. I didn't come here to stand around and socialize though. Take me to see my Uncle."
Dante nodded curtly and turned to lead her to the office. As she walked by Liam, she eyed him suspiciously. He took up the escort from behind and they were off. They walked for a time before she leaned over to Liam.
"A bit on the nose with Liam, isn't it?"
The man turned his head slowly to look at her as they walked and returned his attention forward without a word.
"Figured so. Whatever you're doing here, don't screw this up."
The man remained silent as the trio reached the conference room where a myriad of individuals were pouring over plans.
"Dr. Wright, sir. I have brought a surprise guest who has offered to help with our retrieval."
Rose took one last look at Liam, who did not move a muscle, and entered the room.
"Surprise Uncle Brad! I changed my mind...you weren't seriously going in there without me, were you?" she said with a smile.
