Thank you again for the great comments. It makes writing this worthwhile.
Chapter 11 – Battle Plans
The deck of the Osiris was bustling with activity and excitement.
Orillion, Sinclair, and Quintaine were on the deck to welcome Trent, Juni, King Hakkera, Herr von Claussen and the Dom Kavash envoy.
Juni and Trent made their way over to Orillion.
“So how did you know I was alive?” asked Trent.
“My heart told me” replied Juni softly.
Trent looked into her eyes and smiled.
“How did you find me?” Trent asked.
“Lord Hakkera and I came looking for you but couldn’t pick you up on our scans. Orillion ordered us back here as the Osiris scanners picked up energy surges throughout the system. We arrived on the Osiris shortly before the Dom Kavash made contact with us. The energy surges were Dom Kavash ships de-cloaking. They explained to Orillion that our help was needed. When they told us they had rescued you and you were on board a cloaked dreadnaught in this system, Orillion ordered us to come and ensure your safety.”
“Well.” Said Trent. “You came just in time”
Orillion was waiting for them.
“Colonel Trent, its good to see you alive” said Orillion.
“Thanks to Juni. I understand you’ve been filed in on the current situation?”
The Dom Kavash representative came over from his ship. Quintaine and Sinclair could hardly hide their excitement.
“Welcome to the Osiris Halap’onmelep” said Orillion
“Thank you. We are looking forward to our relationship with your species”
“Shall we proceed to the briefing room? There we can discuss the threat of the Nomads in this system”
Everyone followed Orillion to the briefing room. King, Hakkera, Von Claussen, Cobo and Kress were already waiting.
Everyone took their seats.
Orillion began the briefing. “Ok, straight to business. As you are all aware, the Nomad threat in this system is very real. The Nomads are more aggressive than our last get together. With the help of our new found friends, we must devise a way to contain and hopefully eradicate the Nomad threat to our people and to the Dom Kavash. We will send through scouting missions through each jump hole to assess the Nomad threat.
“Will this lead to an all out assault with everything we have” asked King.
“Yes King” replied Orillion. “Unfortunately, our lack of knowledge on how far the Nomads have stretched themselves within this and the neighbouring systems prevents us from launching an all out assault on the Nomads straight away.”
“How far did liberty get with the construction and research of cloaking devices?” asked Trent.
“The Osiris was the first” replied Orillion. “Why?”
“When the Nomads first attacked, the Osiris was safe as they couldn’t see it. But they could somehow see the cloaked Dom Kavash ship. If Liberty was able to make more of their cloaking system for smaller ships, we could have the element of surprise on our side. We could scout the systems safely and then strike strategic targets with the new found intelligence”
Orillion looked pleased at Trent’s idea. He turned to face Halap'onmelep.
“How did the Nomads see your ships?”
“We gave the Nomads our cloaking technology when we first created them. With it, we gave them the cloaking frequency to enable them to spot themselves. Unfortunately, that means they can see us.”
“Very well. Sounds good. I will try to make the necessary arrangements. In the meantime, you all deserve a rest. Find something relaxing to occupy your time while we await word from Liberty. Dismissed”
King, Hakkera, Kress, Cobo and Herr Von Claussen left to go to the Osiris bar.
Trent and Juni started making their way back to their quarters.
“Hey Trent!” shouted King. “Not joining us for some Liberty ale?”
“No thanks King.” Replied Trent. “Its been a long few days. I’m going to try and get some sleep”
“No problems. I’ll drink five for ya!”
Trent and Juni walked down to their quarters. They were not far from the briefing room.
Trent walked Juni to her quarters.
“Did you want to come in? I’ve got a bottle of very old Kusari Saki?” Said Juni with a smile.
Trent was hesitant.
“I really shouldn’t. I should get some sleep”
“Come on. After all, your only going to be lounging around in your room anyway”
“Ok. Not for long though. I really need to catch up on my sleep.”
Trent entered Juni’s room, sat down on the end of Juni’s bed, and she opened up the bottle of Saki.
“What happened between us Trent?” asked Juni.
Trent looked surprised by Juni’s question and almost choked on his saki.
“What do you mean?” replied Trent.
“Why did we never get together?”
“I wanted too. You were just too busy when you got your promotion. We hardly saw each other”
“I can see you now” said Juni with cheeky smile.
Trents heart started to race.
Juni leaned over and kissed Trent gently on the lips.
Trent looked deep in to Juni’s eyes, placed his hand on her cheek, embraced her and kissed her for what seemed like a lifetime.
