Calvin had had time to settle in and he figured he might as well visit the Governor, check in and find out the exact expectations of the Colony’s Senior civilian leader. It was an obnoxiously long ride up to the man’s office and when doors opened on the lift, Harris tugged his tunic straight and walked over to the Secretary’s desk.“Excuse me…” The Marine’s measured tenor was charming and smooth. Flashing a smile, he continued. “… I’m Colonel Calvin Harris, the incoming Commander of the Aerospace Group here at OED. Would it be possible for me to visit with the Governor for a few minutes? I just want to take a few to introduce myself and find out any immediate concerns he has.” The man’s unique south central North American accent was different than what most around OED sounded like and his uniform was immaculate… so much so, he could have fallen out of a SFMC recruitment poster.
Harris, CAG
The Receptionist, a striking Trill woman dressed in soft reds and yellows, nodded and said “One moment, Colonel.” and she pressed a few commands into the desk terminal. A few short moments later, the large ornate doors to their right swung out and open. “Governor B’tren-Hyrushi will see you, Colonel.” and she smiled at him, eyes sparkling.
Cal couldn’t help but be taken aback by the beauty at the desk. He felt his cheeks redden slightly but he simply smiled and nodded. “Thank ya Miss” His accent very clear now as he spoke. With a soft wave, Harris entered the room.
The room beyond was spacious and white. Walls of glass from the left of the doorway gave an uninterrupted view of the city as they wrapped around the far corner of the room and then continued on out of sight behind a three-quarters-high wall that extended from the far right corner of the doorway about three-quarters the length of the room. Set into the wall was a fireplace, in front of which was a large seating area with a low table surrounded by couches and chairs. In the far left corner of the glass walled room was a desk a a raised section of floor. Set at an angle with two chairs before it, the lone occupant of the room seated behind the desk looked up as the door opened.
The Marine let out a soft whistle as he entered and took in the surroundings. He had been in this very room now precisely three times and wow… did it look different from the first two visits!
The figure appeared human, save for the eyes. Terran Asian features surrounded jet black eyes. Long, black hair flowed down the back of the figure halfway to their waist. Dressed in a dark gray suit with a deep red paisley shirt under the vest, the figure stood and smiled. “Colonel… a pleasure. Please have a seat, won’t you? I am Kenzo B’tren-Hyrushi, Governor of the colony.” and he held out a hand to the officer.
Hyrushi, Gov.
Harris walked over and extended his hand. “Colonel Calvin Alexander Harris....” His grip was smooth, firm, measured and confident. “… your new CAG.” As his hand was released, the Marine motioned to the room as he sat. “I love what you’ve done with the place. It was a bit bland for my tastes the last time I was here.” With a chuckle he added. “While this ain’t really my style either, Governor, I do like it! It’s like a breath of fresh air compared to stuffy Starship quarters.”
Harris, CAG
