Just a Desk Job

Lieutenant Commander Fenel Riwoko sat at his desk within the Galaxy Police headquarters. He had graduated the top of his class and had risen very quickly in the GP ranks. He had green hair and red eyes which was very odd for people who had never met him. He finished the last of his work and was preparing to leave when someone walked in the room.
"Hey, Fenel. The Marshall wants someone to check on his granddaughter. Might be a chance for a promotion," the beastman who had entered the room told him. "You want the assignment."
"Is it a field assignment?" he asked curiously.
"Yeah," the beastman nodded. "What's your answer?"
"No thanks," Fenel told him. He walked out of the room and down to his room. He sorted through a few things and went down to the mess. No thoughts wandered to the assignment he had turned down.
A week later the officer sent returned with nothing to report. Mainly because she got lost, but that is another story entirely.

That's it, great story. Huh? Well maybe not, but it was short and too the point.
