Ghosts of the Past...

Aurelia's eyes narrowed, and she walked towards the hologram of Elexis. "If you have business that concerns him, than it concerns me as well. And as I said. He is busy with other matters. One of which includes conversation with the first man to find these ships. And the piece of equipment they got. A piece that resulted in the complete destruction of the ship, and its crew. A piece of equipment they got, straight off one of those ships. And you obviously didn't know I'm more than his bodyguard. I also lead the Theta Defense Fleet, founded and funded by the Asgard Warriors. As well as the Royal Guard. The fleet your ship is currently sitting in the middle of, if you'd care to look outside your window." Her voice turned suddenly cold. "So if you care for the life of your men and ship you will do well to watch your tongue. I will not tolerate threats."

"And do not compare losses here. We are the ones fighting a three way war while you flit around in your little ships."

"I can speak for the Lord Captain, and the Asgard Warriors. As well as the Zoner military. And I am willing to hear your terms for the continued temporary alliance. If your ship is yet again destroyed we will replace it with a much better constructed ship, as payment for the sacrifice."

"But you will do well to watch your step Miss Sinclare. The risks here are more than you know. And the forces involved could sweep through you without so much as a twitch."

"We will contact you shortly. Consider yourself at home at Freeport 9, you might be there awhile." Aurelia slapped her hand on the end switch, cutting the transmission.

Aurelia turned and headed back to Luciaden's room.
