.He mimed holding a pistol.“And I’m sorry for shooting at you,” she added quickly.Calvin gave a little bow.“It was my pleasure,” he said graciously.Seeing that he wasn’t mad, the little cub came over to rub against Calvin.He looked at Rrower.“Is it all right to pick her up?” he asked.“Yes,” replied Rrower.Calvin picked up the cub and gave her a hug.“What is your name?” he asked.“My name is Mimi,” she said as the largest Mrowry that Calvin had seen came bounding into the room on all fours.Nearly black in color, he was darker than any of the others that Calvin had seen, except for when he had seen the commanding officer of the ship on the Gulf’s view screen.It came up and stood on his hind legs, and Calvin saw that, at seven feet tall, he was also far larger than the other Mrowry.“Might I have my daughter?” he asked.“Certainly,” said Calvin, handing her over.“Here you go.”The two Mrowry nuzzled each other.“Thank you for saving her,” said the newcomer, saluting Calvin with a fist to his chest.“I was sure that the lizards were going to get her.”“It was my pleasure,” said Calvin.“She seems like a nice young lady.By the way, I’m Lieutenant Commander Hobbs, the leader of the forces aboard the ship.”“You are wrong,” replied the felinoid.“She is a little spitfire.” He rubbed her head.“But I love her anyway.I am Captain Yerrow, the commanding officer of the Emperor’s Paw.” The Mrowry was the one they had seen earlier.“Thank you for coming.The AI tells me that our lizard infestation is almost eradicated.In addition to the ones that your group has killed, the group of.Terrans?.in the front of the ship has been like a whirlwind.They have swept through and killed all of the lizards that they came upon.”He paused, listening to something via his implant.“It appears that the ship is ours again, but it will be a while before our ship is mobile.I would greatly like to speak face-to-face with your commanding officer.Would it be possible to get you to shuttle me across to your ship?”“Yes sir,” said Calvin, “I’m sure we can arrange that.Just a second.” He commed Night.“Night, Calvin.I’m going to shuttle the ship’s commanding officer over to the Vella Gulf.You’re in charge of the troops that are still aboard.”“Got it,” said Night.“We’ll finish the clean up.It doesn’t look like there are many remaining.We found where they were preparing a major assault and hit them with high explosives first.The ship’s a mess, but we killed a lot of lizards.”“Good job,” said Calvin, “Keep it up.” He switched to the shuttle’s WSO.“Shuttle 02, Calvin.Hey, Faith, can you come pick up several passengers for transport to the Vella Gulf? You can get us where you dropped me off.”“We’ll be right there,” replied Lieutenant Faith Ibori.“Two minutes.”“Thanks,” Calvin replied.“Be advised that one of the passengers is Captain Yerrow, the ship’s CO.Please let the Gulf know that we are coming.”“OK sir,” Calvin said to the Paw’s CO, “we have a shuttle coming to take us over to the Vella Gulf.Is there anything else you need?”“Yes, there is,” replied Captain Yerrow.“If you have any extra engineers, we could use them to help get the ship operational again.We are in a bit of a hurry.”* * * * *Chapter Thirty-NineTSS Vella Gulf, Ross 248 System, August 24, 2020Captain Griffin met the shuttle as it docked, and Calvin introduced the two commanding officers to each other.He let the two COs introduce the members of their staffs that they had each brought.He fell into trail behind them as Captain Griffin led Captain Yerrow to her conference room, where they were going to have their meeting.Steropes joined the procession as it passed an intersection, coming up to walk next to Calvin.“How’d it go?” Steropes asked Calvin.“It went as well as could be hoped,” said Calvin, “and maybe even better.They didn’t expect us and we rolled right through them.We had a few minor casualties, but nothing serious.We even saved their commanding officer’s daughter along the way, which ought to be good for some bonus points.”“You’re not kidding,” Steropes said with a chuckle.“What do you mean?” asked Calvin.“You didn’t know?” asked Steropes.“Captain Yerrow is a prince.”“No,” replied Calvin angrily, “how the hell would I have known that?”“The black stripes are bigger and much closer on royalty,” replied Steropes.“The more black their color, the higher they are in the line of succession.”“And since Yerrow is nearly all black.” said Calvin.“.he is the Crown Prince,” confirmed Steropes.“You saved the daughter of Crown Prince Yerrow, Princess Merrorritor.She is probably 4th or 5th in the line of succession for the throne [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
