“What are you smirking at?” Jane asked suddenly. “Did I say something funny?”

“Why? No. You didn’t.” I rolled my eyes even though I wanted to laugh out loud about the group she’d gathered around her. In fact, I was amazed that she’d held the secret for so long. But then again I didn’t need to imagine as I knew that revelation had most probably sparked up a fight inside the Tank. And that was exactly the reason why I said: “It’s about Alison. That made me smirk,” as I imagined Harry and Addison going mental for her being among one of our people and we didn’t know anything about.

“Yeah,” she said. “I wondered when you would bring her up.”

“Well…” I put the pen down to stop the records. “How did you end up with her?”

“As…”

“As a friend and also, I believe, as a roommate.”

Jane glanced at Sergeant Red and then leaned forward to whisper: “It’s a long story. I don’t know if you want to hear about it, really.”

“Well,” I said. “I like long stories. And this one, it’s off the books.”

“Seriously?” She frowned at me.

I nodded and then waved my hand at Red. “Why don’t you take a break?”

“Sir.” Sergeant Red stood to attention and then turned around, just as Jane put a hand over mine and said, “I don’t mind if he stays, but you have to promise that this is completely off the records. Will you?”

I reached down at the end of the table and tabbed in a code sequence to turn off all the recording devices other than the one that connected me to the holo-drone. And then I relaxed to listen how she had met one who had strolled down the halls of power, while I could still see the remains of Harry’s objections fading before my eyes, as I said: “Tell me Alison’s story.”
