Planetary Governor Kleigh sighed at the extravagant waste of resources inflicted upon him by the humans. It wasn’t enough that this world’s populace felt the need to oppose rightful Chxor rule. It wasn’t enough that they had slowed progress of total control. Now, his old opponent returned and with his suicidal attack, destroyed two dreadnoughts outright!

The time had come to end this annoyance, once and for all, “Prepare my shuttle, I will take charge of this battle.” He stood from his desk and walked briskly towards his private shuttle pad. His aides scurried along behind him. “Have Captain Klun prepare my flag bridge, I’ll join him momentarily.”

“Planetary Governor, should I make addendum to standing orders that all vessels retain shields and engines at standby?”

Kleigh looked at the aide, slightly surprised, “Why? Such suicidal attacks by the humans are unpredictable. Wear and tear on equipment on standby will cut deeply into our profit margins. No, once this threat is dealt with, there will be no further attacks such as this.” Kleigh stared at the Chxor aide, “You are an Abaner line, aren’t you?”

“Yes, Planetary Governor. I am Tactical Planning Officer Krath.”

Kleigh nodded, “Place yourself on half-rations for your ignorant assumption.”

“Yes, Planetary Governor.”

“Also, I will not need your assistance for the upcoming battle, take charge of personnel recovery and salvage operations from the damaged vessels in orbit. Priority is, of course, Chxor officers. Other crew can be retrieved during salvage operations.”
