"Ma'am! Orders from Big Boss." I was disturbed by the Soldier's presence in the Healing Spring Sanctuary. I was caught from my meditations. "You are to meet with Jim Raynor on Planet Tanus of the Beta Asteria Galaxy."
I opened my eyes, focusing in on the light of the Spring. "Is there anything else?"
"Yes Ma'am, you are to take Captain Miles's Squad upon arrival to Tanus. The Assassins are at your dispense." The Soldier had saluted. "There is nothing else to report, Ma'am."
"Good, then you are dismissed."
"Thank you, Ma'am!" The Soldier had left.
"Never a dull moment. It's quite amazing." Zetris behind me. "Though, at least everything is with great care. Are you sure you wouldn't want to ease your mind before leaving? It might be sometime before you return."
"I will be fine, thank you Zetris."
"Then take this with you..." A strange gemstone had appeared in my hands. "That Felcon comes from this Spring and Memories. If you ever feel anxious. Hold it to your heart. It should calm you on the battlefield."
Clasping the Felcon in my hands, I nodded. "Thank you." Before leaving the Sanctuary.
Boss caught me leaving the Sanctuary as he joined me. "You are to be playing Ghost. Jim requested you, seeing you and Sarah Kerrigan-"
"Spare me the speech, Boss." I nipped at him. "My mission concerns only what needs to be done."
"We're dealing with Zerg this time around." Boss stopped me, slamming me against a nearby wall. "Look you know I had my reasons. I should have told you."
"What that you still play Jedi Keeper around me. Knowing the future and what's the result? I think I heard enough for one lifetime."
"Then focus on your Mission. I need you alive."
"Please, spare me this lecture." I pushed him aside,
"I will need you psychoanalyzed by the time you return. You're becoming unstable. I thought Zetris could help you, but it seems I misjudged my actions." If that sounded like Boss caring, it still sounded like he was allowing me to do my Mission.
Entering the Space Dock, soldiers suiting up reminded me of a Star Wars movie, though it wasn't the best analogy. It's the only one I could piece. Soldiers, Aliens and the mix saluting me as I walked passed them. I put my Hood up, hiding my face.
"General Fisher, it's nice to see you again." One of them recognized me. "There is a suit of Fiberarmor crafted for you in this Mission. This operates as a Steath Suit. Please, change into the armor. We also have a customized Mercury Bow at your dispense. It's been advised you use it with care."
Lead into a spare Locker Room, seeing there was the Fiberarmor already waiting. All right Boss, who were you kidding? I was going to look exactly like Kerrigan without the Zerg Infestation.
As for the Bow, My God. It must have been salvaged at Shadow Moses before obliteration. Examining the weapon, I saw that it was working condition. Though I didn't want to risk shooting anything here. This beast could put holes in anything with the rate of a human blink. This could give someone Mercury Poisoning if not careful. It was why it was treated as a Sniper.
Equipping myself, I saw that the case for the Trifocal Goggles had returned. Opening the case, there seemed to be a letter. Not the one the case had with it when I first saw. This was newly written.
Elena,
In our greatest moment of grief and sorrow, you know that my actions aren't without reason. I know you won't listen to me since Sam's Decision to head after his daughter. If you're reading this, this meant you knew the value of family.
Though we may not act to care at times, without us being together, who says where we could have ended up after the destruction of Astral Earth? I was not abandoning Astral Earth, but I knew that the power we were already fighting was reforming the Planet.
The death of Edward must be hard on you. We all know this... though you must always remember. The future is in our hands. As a part of Sapphire Renegade, you are not obligated to stay any longer than required. I don't want you to feel burdened with the responsibility knowing your Husband is gone.
You Fight For Your Future, No Matter The Path.
Big Boss.
I crinkled the note in my hand a bit before placing the note back into the case. Slipping the trifocal goggles onto my head, I adjusted them to fit, now meeting back with the Preparation Crew.
One of them had saluted. "Ma'am your Shuttle to Tanus is ready."
"At ease." I commanded. "All of you are dismissed."
"Thank you, Ma'am." They all coined their orders.
Entering my Shuttle. I set the frequency. "Ghost Fisher reporting in, Sir. Everything is going smooth. Requesting for dispatch."
"Dispatch Granted Ghost Fisher. Zetris Guide You."
Sitting in the small compartment, I saw that the Shuttle was set to Auto-Pilot. There was no running from this... I knew what I had to do. I glanced upon the Morning Sky before being shot into Space to the Beta Asteria Galaxy.
