Lizell was in awe of seeing space through the huge windows on the bridge. “Status, Angel,” I said, as I approached the grand marshal. “We are Status Green. All systems are responding normally. I asked you up here to inform you that the emperor authorized, no, I should actually say demanded, we use long jump protocols. We made the jump while you slept. We will be pulling into orbit around earth in about twenty minutes.” Lizell’s eyes grew wide. “You mean these ships can make a jump from rim to Earth in one step?” “Yes, ma’am,” Angel replied. “It is not an ability we like to advertise.” Then Angel looked back to me, “The emperor requests that you escort the prisoner. He has waited a long time to catch this bitch with undeniable proof. He does not want her to get away.” “I will escort her. Is she allowed to have bruises when she arrives?” “Protocol does not allow the mistreatment of prisoners. Make sure they don’t show. You should be in uniform, sir.

You also won so many other medals it is sickening, including five IMoH. What is this platinum ribbon with the black stripe?” “That is a medal that has not been seen since the early days of the empire. It is the Knight Protector’s ribbon. It is only awarded to someone who has saved the life of an unborn member of the imperial family.” “Tell me about it.” ********* “Robert, whoever has been after Asta is going to try hard in the next few days. If your child is born, it will make it that much harder for them to force your hand by killing her.” “I know, Drake. That is why I have placed her life completely in your hands.
