Chapter 4:
"Look I don't care about the goddamn details" Lake Major said pounding his fist onto the desk "just tell me what in the hell it is!"
Lake looked upon the picture with Professor Smith across from his desk and his headset settled on his ear. The picture lay directly in the middle of the two as they glazed into the picture. The room fell silent, as both were speechless.
Lake raised his hand and pointed his finger "just find out what it is!" he yelled as he threw the headset off of this head. With a grin on his face the Major looked up to Smith "God this people, can't do a damn thing on their own"
Smith smirked thinking about the Major's remark 'if he could hear himself' he hung his head and closed his eyes 'he can't do a damn thing on his own and he wont stop complaining' He opened his eyes and looked back to the Major.
"Have you told command yet?" Smith asked looking past the Major.
"No…" Lake looked up to the professor as he got quite "no… it's better not to start a frenzy especially before the summit" The major placed his head on the desk "do you have any idea on what it is"
"Well, it's certainly not alive" he said with a smirk.
"Quite" lake began to laugh through his lips.
A faint ring came over the room. Lake picked his head up and looked into the screen "Ahh hell" He said rubbing his forehead.
"What is it?" Smith asked already knowing the answer.
"It's command" Lake said as he relaxed back into his chair "and they want to know how the operation went"
"Are you going to tell him?" Smith leaned over and picked the headset up "you better pick it up nonetheless" He held his hand out and placed the headset on the desk near Lake.
"Yes" Lake picked the headset up and placed in on his head "I suppose your right"
The Major touched the monitor screen in font of him "Sir, Major Lake of the Meridian here"
Smith laid back in his chair, put his hands behind his neck and slowly closed his eyes.
Not wanted to tell the complete truth Major spoke into the head set "Yes sir the mission went along good and no there weren't any signs of life" A sharp quick pain exploded in his neck, he snaked his arm around his body and slowly rubbed his neck "From what we could see the ship had been abandoned" Lake fell into silence as he listened to the Sky Marshall. "But sir-" lake was interrupted and he sat there with his mouth wide open.
"Yes sir will do" Lake rolled his eyes "ok, thank you sir" he paused again "and a good day to you"
"Let me guess" Smith replied looking on the Major.
"He wants us to board" Lake said with a sigh. "And to recover anything we find"
Smith stood "Why in the hell doesn't he just call a search team in?" Smith said knowing he'd have to lead the group onto the unknown craft.
Lake threw his hands up in annoyance " The hell if I know, he said he He wants it done as quickly as possible" he looked up to the professor "and since we have a-"
Smith pointed to the Major "No, I'm not-"
"Look it's already been decided," Lake interrupted "The Major told me that you-"
Smith held his hand out letting him know that he already knew. Lake nodded and looked to his desk. Smith stood up and quickly left the room.
Lake stood up and said to himself "damnit". He slowly extended his arm out to grab his coat. He slowly slid the coat over his head and begun to walk.

"Ok sir he have visuals from Dr. Smiths headset". Private Perkins said over the com-channels.
Lake looked down to Perkins post "Good job private."
