Chapter 94: Return
That wasn’t good, Derek decided. Any “force majeure” capable of making Isaac postpone his wedding was liable to be a massive problem for everyone in the crosshairs.
He took a couple of minutes to type up an email to Isaac, a general “sorry to hear that, do you need anything,” not expecting anything beyond that.
But a second before he could send it, he received another email, this one sent only to him.
Hi Derek,
Something might be coming. You’ll probably want to cut your holiday short and get your shakedown cruise finished as quickly as possible. And get your Dragonfly stocked up for anything and everything. Especially repairing combat damage.
Beyond that … this is probably something that needs to be dealt with at a high Level. I know you’re going to involve yourself in anything that looks even remotely survivable anyway, so I’m not going to talk you out of it, but please, be careful.
Yours sincerely,
Isaac Thoma
Derek snorted at the sign-off. Drama queen.
