h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

All I know is someone on this base has been in my office and, surprise surprise, the CCTV tape as been wiped clean, I have had a quick look at other tapes and so far I know this, Major AkronU was with me, Anthea is in her office, Scandrea was alseep in the Map room, Major Khamsin Left his reports here and went back to his barracks, I still have plenty more CCTV to go through, I just thought to save things getting nasty and official, I wondered if anyone knew anything, I will post a 24 hour amnesty anyone with any information can email me, I want to know why 1) one of my trusted crew would go through my desk and 2) if we have a spy on the base

*smiles and Scandrea*

I wasn't on base ma'am.

<oops, didn't read to the end of the thread, sorry

*looks ever so slightly shifty but recovers when she remembers she had gloves on and that if the accused is Major Fretts then he also wiped the video that she may have been on.*

Not me ma'am, although then again I HAVE been slightly preoccupied with what my superior officer has done to my family. If you'll excuse me I have things to be doing.

*snaps off a salute and leaves*

I will be along to with my side of the story later Kat

*looks straight at the Colonel*

Ma'am. Just a sugestion. But if you feel there's been any possible security breach, shouldn't it be made official.

Apologies if that seems out of turn Ma'am. I'll breif my team regarding the mission.

*salutes*

With your permission ma'am I'll go with Major Fretts and get myself squared away at the armory before our mission.

*salutes*

Don't go yet AkronU, I want you to do something for me

*Gives him a 'Privatly' look and hopes the others can't see*

Major Fretts I'll wait a little longer before making this official, give whoever decided to look through my office time to come forward

Thank you

Ma'am.

*turns to Major AkronU*

I'll be in armoury. That is when the Colonels finished with you, of course.

*salutes and exits*

Thanks Major.

*stands waiting patiently*

*takes a couple of steps down the corridor, then stops and walks back*

Permission to speak freely Ma'am?



I really do feel you should make this official.

*winks and turns around, leaving again*

*Sighs*

Sit down AkronU, this calls for a proper drink I think

*Pulls out a bottle of Malt Whisky and pours 2 large glasses*

This is a thank you for letting me forget my problems for a few hours

*Smiles sadly*

But I had no idea this was going on

*Coughs lightly, and salutes.*

I'll get right on that, ma'am.

*Rushes out.*

*sits heavily taking the glass of proffered whiskey*

Glad I could help ma'am

*sips*

What is it you plan to do about this?

Major Fretts is up to something, why is he so insistant that I report this officially, while you're on the mission see if you can get close to him, find out if he knows anything

*Sighs and takes a slug of whisky*

I know I sound paranoid, but I have somekind of sixth sence about these kind of things and I haven't been wrong yet

*Smiles*

So why on earth did the son of 2 therapists decide to join the airforce

*sips*

Where else can I get paid to do what we just did? I went up in a Cessna for the first time when I was fourteen and I just knew. The parents were NOT thrilled but they've come to accept it. We got into it again when I was shot down on an SOC mission. But I think they;re proud of me.

*drinks*

It's called validating your child.

*Drains the glass and refils it*

What would your parents have made, professionaly speaking, of a woman who was blackmailed into marrage by her grandmother, took her first foreign posting 2 months after her honeymoon and filed for divorce 2 days after the old bag's funeral

*Raises her glass*

As you can tell mine was not a marrage made in heaven, in fact I think Satan had a hand in it

*toasts*

I think they'd look at the guts it took to take a foreign posting and see someone who wasn't willing to be pushed around.

*finishes the glass*

You made the best of a bad situation. Give yourself some credit.

*sets the glass on the desk*

They'd probably say something about Freud too, he's pretty big in that field.

*Laughs*

Freud would have blamed my mother, I learned at an early age that no one was going to push me around, I had to be tough because darling Richard was a wimp

*A thought strikes*

I wonder if Richard had anything to do with my office being searched, he's a diplomat and a friend of Senator Kinsey, if Kinsey knows about us

Can you gently ask Bubba if it's anything to do with my ex, I know it's him who searched my office, don't ask me how because I can't tell you

*eyebrows arch*

I'll make sure I get all the info out of fretts I can ma'am. I was the squadron intelligence officer when I was at hurlburt. They trained us on how to elicit information.

*looks at his empty glass*

When does our mission depart?
