the door opened and a rather short and "round" man stepped inside. He had dark, long hair, dimmed glasses and a leather coat which matched perfectly with his shiny boots.
He started to walk toward the desk, and his boots started to make a rather loud noise.
The man at the desk raised his eyes, looked at the man and said - "You know what? Guards, check him for any weapons or hidden devices"
As the man was checked, he mumbled to himself, it looked like he was angry.
"If I look so suspicious, why dont you just kick me out right now?"
"Well, I could, but you seem interesting, so I`ll hear what you have to say!"
As the man continued his walk across the room, he threw his coat at one of the guards.
''So, what is your name?"
''You can call me Pete!''
''Pete? Thats a Liberty name.... GUA....''
''No need to call the guards''
"Why is that so? A Libertonian is not quite welcome in here"
"....thats good, but I'm not from Liberty you see. My full name is Peter Elensburg"
"For your own good, let it be true..... So, where do you come from Mister Elensburg?"
"I'm from around here, Hamburg. I'm a common Rheinland man, I love to work, I'm honest, I'm loyal, I'm everything you could want in an employee."
"Have you had any previous employment in this line of business?"
"Actually, a lot. I ran a small shipping company, which mainly based itself on the routes heading to Liberty, but when the war started, my business opportunities faded away and I was left without a job. Also, I got my nickname "Pete" doing some diplomatic work at Liberty!"
"Could you please tell what do you strive to achieve while working for Republican-shipping? Make it short and snappy!"
"As all of the modern society, my main goal is wealth, credits, the gold, the silver, everything that is shiny, you know the drill...."
"Could you call yourself greedy?"
"Definitely, and I am not ashamed of it, I am who I am!"
"Alright" said the man at the desk "We will contact you as soon as we make up our minds"
Pete turned around, took his coat from the guard and left.
//To make it short, I already have a ship, I already have the ID & IFF, I just want to fly with you guys.
