"Good you were quick; seems you have some discipline after all despite putting a gun at my head," strictly said the officer. "Now, you better your absolute best behavior, the Admiral has little patience for antics of any kind. That includes being late, let us hurry before we both get yelled at for wasting time." With that said, they both said little else and quickly left the area to board the shuttle along with the two guards who followed them in and launched into orbit.


Few hours later, they are in the hangar waiting for an inspection officer to check them out and verify their papers. This took time, as ships come and go transferring supplies and crew, all being inspected for safety protocols and standard regulations. When an inspection officer did finally arrive, he wasted no time as he recognized the tactical officer from the bridge was present among those he was checking. After everything was checked out and verified as "green," they went to Duke's office, a private area of the ship further behind the main helm, and waited for him to answer. "Since we have to wait a little while, tell me about yourself, what is this all about? I know you wanted to see Duke, and he somehow approved your meeting, but I would like some information before we go in."
