The Admiral paused and looked back at Derek. “You don’t know yet? I
would have thought they told you already. It’s the same man that’s
coming for us right now. It was that bastard Wyatt. He used to be a
lieutenant there by your father’s side. But I suppose USOC had a better
offer for him. He’s the worst of the worst. The dirtiest scum there is,
but he’s a dangerously strong fighter and an even better commander.
Which is why we need to hurry.” Derek stopped to catch his breath,
and then he felt a hint of anger burn inside him. Wyatt wronged him,
and his father. But it was out of his control.
Cheng’s wrist display flashed. He pressed it and started talking,
presumably with another commander. “Good. Tell your men to push
forward. Clean that base out. Okay. Godspeed, Commander.” The
Admiral turned back to face Derek. “That was Commander Arkin. She
and her one hundred ships, with the help of Chorus have destroyed
Geisen’s defences and are now boarding it. Our ships have surrounded
their precious base and it’ll soon be ours. With Geisen down, it’ll only
be their headquarters on each planet we have to worry about. None of


them come close to Geisen’s defences, except for Earths’ and perhaps
Mars’. This is a stroke of luck, Derek. For once, everything is going our
way.” Derek didn’t seem as ecstatic.
They carried on throughout the ruined carcass of the ship, floating past
kitchens, barracks and the all too familiar lounge area. NorthCo
soldiers took point ahead, eliminating any threats around them. “There
it is, Derek” commented the Admiral as he looked up at a steel sign.
