Kent Arrived on Tarsonis merely three hours after his last confrontation. He headed directly to the military HQ to ask about the strange happenings and to upload the ghost info. He was greeted nonchalantly by the guards who allowed his entrance.
"Kent? You're alive? Great to see you buddy!" General Ottruscus said delighted, "we thought that the zerg killed you!"
"Nope. Got away at the last minute," he explained giving his old friend a big hug, "and if I had died it would have been for a different reason." Ottruscus looked at him somewhat confused.
Eric Ottruscus was old but tactful after many a battle against rebels. He was tall and stout with short white hair that was covered under his hat. He was almost always seen in uniform unless he was sick or in a suit. He had a tendency to act completely happy, then start shouting in frustration.
"What happened? I'm dying to hear," he smiled slightly.
"It was really odd. First I'm attacked by the zerg after finishing my research, and then my escape vessel was destroyed."
"Scourges. They've become a hug problem in some sectors I'll have it looked into."
"Actually sir it was a confederate battleship," I said solemnly.
"WHAT! Such betrayal is unacceptable! The entire personnel will be destroyed to quell any rebellion. Do you know the numbers?" His voice was laden with importance.
"Yes I do. 009-006," Kent replied. Eric turned and started screaming at the fleet administration asking why the ship left its sector. The shy administrator replied quietly that it was petitioned to be switched with the vessel nearby the Jacobs installation.
The General started screaming again about how the vessel needs a new crew and how the old crew needed to be destroyed. Knowing how long Ottruscus' arguments could be he decided to go for a walk. A couple blocks away were a park that was famous for its beautiful trees and flowers, so he went there.
It was well worth the walk. The park was beautiful, as if it were out of a fairytale. He stood at a tree looking at an inscription that had almost been covered by bark when the sound of a rocket launch filled his ears. He quickly jumped but was burned from the explosion. He crawled behind a bush were his assailant was still visible. Realizing he was still carrying the pistol from Jacobs he shot several rounds, hitting the unarmored man.
In pain from the burns he walked up to the man, breathing heavily and slowly. Fear came to his eyes as Kent brought his pistol to the assailants face. Kent shot. He walked away to avoid hurting his back.
By now it was very obvious he was wanted dead but he needed to know why. He went straight to the armory and slashed his entry card to the scanner. It beeped and the door slid open.
Out of the entire arsenal in the room he knew how to use one. He checked out a modded Ghost which could cloak without psionic ability. He took a sniper rifle and walked out.
As soon as he was out he knew he had to check the man's ID. Running back to the park, he quickly rummaged through his clothes to find nothing. All he found was a barcode on his arm. He tore off the flesh and walked to every bar-coded building on his map.
After a long day of no success he came across a zerg research installation. He scanned the flesh on the barcode and cloaked himself. He snuck behind a guard and thrust his knife up his spine. He made a squelched grunt and crumbled noiselessly. He tossed him in a corner and went to a nearby access panel. Using the same code as the Jacobs he looked through the options. He decided to open the doors. He pressed the button and a secret door to the panel's right opened. Determined he walked down.
