A spark of life

Gov. Gruenwalds armoured transport,
outside of Augsberg Orbital Colony, Munich system.


"This is Rheinland Police Alpha one to Augsberg Orbital Colony, requesting permission to dock."

"Copy that, your request to dock is granted, docks 1, 2 and 3 are ready for you and your escorts."

"Thank you, Rheinland Police Alpha one out"


Augsberg Orbital Colony,
residential wing #7


Governor Gruenwald walked down the hall while her two police escorts followed closely. The halls were covered in green metal with blue lighting, customary for all Rheinland stations, a few Rheinland dignitary's could be seen meandering down the hall. Gruenwald held very little respect for them. Most were typical upper class, removed from reality.

Oh well, she thought, they do have there uses, just like everything else.

She stopped at one door, this one was not quite like the others, it held the symbol of the old Rheinland Imperial Royal line, this was the only place one could see that symbol outside of history books and some old artifacts.

He hasn't changed a bit, that should make things simpler.

She turned to the guards giving them the wait outside gesture before activating the door bell, a few moments later the door opened revealing a luxuriously furnished room, again in the fashion of the old royalty, and in front of the door there stood a young, athletic blond man, dressed in the blue and gold dress that has been used by the upper class and politicians since way back to the old empire.

He made a move to talk but Gruenwald simply walked in, brushing by him before he could react and sitting on a chair in an all to casual manner. The young man was only taken about by this intrusion for a second before a small smile crossed his lips. "Brash as always by dear, to what do I owe the pleasure of this visit too?"

Gruenwald simple smiled, for this man was Prince Alaric, the last of a dying breed in Rheinland. They've known each other for quite some time now and Alaric was clearly fond of here. Unfortunately for him, she returned the sentiment not in the slightest, not that she let him know that, he did have is uses after all.

"Now why should I need a reason to visit you?" She said with a slightly playful tone.

"We both know that you are a very busy woman and that my charm alone, however great, can not drag you away from my work."

"Oh, I assure you, I look for any excuse to come see you." At this point she was simply lying through her teeth.

Alaric chuckled, "Well then, what was your excuse this time?"

"Oh, just a little matter. You see I am collecting resources I need for a project..."

"Let me guess, its an expensive one and you want to dip into the Imperial coffers?"

"Why, yes"

"Just out of curiosity, what is this project exactly?"

"Refitting an old Bismark"

"A Bismark? Hmmm.... I don't really think I can spare the mon-"

During the conversation Gruenwald got up off here chair and closed very close to Alaric, she put her finger over his lips to quiet him. "If you do this, you will not only make me very happy, but I will see to it that your name is placed on a ship." Of course she didn't specify which ship, but she does know of an ALG toxic waste transport under construction at Alster Shipyards that still needs a name.

"Well, in that case consider it done." Alaric said on a soft tone, whist slowly moving in for a kiss, at first Gruenwald showed no sign of resistance until she dodged him at the last second, heading straight for the door.

"Excellent, A Daumann rep will will be here shortly to arrange for the credit transfer." She paused at the door for a second, looking back at him with a look of lust. "Don't disappoint me, handsome." At that, the door closed and she proceeded back to the docking bay, her two guards falling into step behind her.

After all, this was only the tip of the iceberg, much work needed to be done.
