Revan was already starting to try and recall the names from the ship, even though he was pretty sure he'd not be able too. But then he snapped a bit straighter.

"Sir, while on the planet we picked up communications of what we believed were pirates. I ordered everyone to turn off their electronics and reduce our power enough so that we would not get detected on the planet. We overheard their communications regardless. There was some sort of deal they had brokered but the one who had whatever it was they wanted, wanted more money. They were arguing when the recovery ship arrived and attacked them with theirs and our fighters. I was told by the recovery ships captain they had captured the pirates and whatever it was they were trying to trade but I heard nothing more, Sir."

-"well what the hell! Im just not being told these things anymore?!"-

He was furious. He took the screen, and threw it behind him, it smashing against the wall to tiny bits and pieces.

He looked across at Revan and said loudly

"Who was it that picked you up from the planet?"-

Revan straightened up more still and kept staring ahead at nothing. He almost barked the name out.

"Sir! Captain Shane, Sir!"

Later on he would think it a strange thought, but he couldn't help thinking he preferred the woman's method better...what was her name?...Orga...he'd have to remember it.

The man shook his head

-"Im going to kill that son of a bitch, how could he not tell me something that huge?!"-

The large man sighed, before standing

-"You're dismissed"-

And walked out, obviously frustrated, ready to go after whoever had forgot to mention a shipment taken in

Sergeant Revan slowly relaxed and shook his head slowly. He was thinking how strange that debriefing had gone. Times were hard in the military. Colonies and even whole systems were slowly being taken over by the Plant every day.

Military forces tried their best to keep them back but Revan couldn't fault soldiers for giving in to the pleas of loved ones as they moaned and begged them to come to them. The upper brass had only recently started shipping soldiers away from their home systems and replacing them with others that weren't associated with those colonies, but it's hard for their society to accept something so obviously in pleasure asking for company.

He glanced down at the tray of food and wondered if that would be their downfall. Their strive to do the decent thing. He shook his head slightly and left the room. He needed sleep and after sleep he wanted to eat half a cow before reporting in to command for his next set of orders.

It took an hour for him to get to the small apartment the military had provided him. It's sole occupant greeted him enthusiastically at the door. Munchkin, the over smart feline. Most houses were equipped with automated pet feeding systems and some of them [like the apartment] even had holographic projectors that would try and keep the pets company by projecting their owners into the house.

Of course the lack of petting, smell, and general intelligence was enough for most pets to ignore the holograms altogether. Especially Munchkin who was smarter than most cats. Revan was glad to see the cat and was soon in his bedroom sitting at the computer terminal. He was exhausted but he wanted to see something first...

He started a search of Orga, and anyone that had that name in the medical fields and hoped it'd not be all classified.
