Kevin finished his so called breakfast and proceeded, still under guard, to his office. When he walked in, he immediately realized that he hadn't done as much work as he thought he did. Sometime today Sgt. Berg was supposed to drop off some supplies, but most of them can wait another day. Kevin decided that now was the best time to do something about the sorry state his stuff was in. There were still piles and piles of boxes…
Kevin stared at the boxes for as long as he could before actually telling himself to start working on the stuff. It really wasn't that much fun to do…boxes of stuff to unpack. It's almost about the same as watching paint dry or watching grass grow…
'Well this day is starting out very dull. I mean, this isn't exactly what I planned to be doing today, or for as long as I'm here for that matter…but at least I'm paid and they need my work. Boring…boring…bori……..'
His very complex thoughts were interrupted by that ear-shattering noise…"OFF-WORLD ACTIVATION!"
(A/N: I was debating just ending this there…but then the chapter would be too short, so off I go!)
'Well…I guess that's going to be very repetitive for as long as I'm going to be here…'
"Back-up needed in the gate room! Repeat…Backup needed NOW!!!"
'Uh oh… that does NOT sound good…well….I hope that they deal with whatever's going wrong down there…'
Kevin got curious and walked to his door. As he suspected…no SF's or Marines. Obviously whatever they were dealing was far more important than a computer geek. He wandered around the halls for a few minutes before seeing a scientist walking down the hall. That was the only person he had seen in a while, so he decided to ask her a question.
"Excuse me, can you tell me what's going on in the Gate room?"
"There's a huge firefight going on in the gate room. They never call for backup unless there's something very wrong…"
"Thanks…"
