Chapter 14 Zoness
The ASF-3 roared through the atmosphere of Zoness."And thats how i ended up joining the military. Whoa hey were here. Hmm looks like we got a little rain." Vixo said. What he said was an understatement. The rain poured onto the ship reducing the visibility alot."Hey Vixo where are you taking me?" He held up a finger to signal Sez to wait.
"This is Cornerian Space Pilot Lieutenant Vixo McCloud requesting clearance to land at pad...94." Sez heard the ships comm system come to life.
"This is Zoness control tower 72B. You are cleared to land on pad 94. Enjoy your stay Lieutenent." Vixo clicked off the comm.
"Well Sez im taking you to Zoness Capital City. There you will go undercover to root out what we belive to be a mole in the Cornerian Intelligence Agency." Sez was quiet for a moment.
"And why wasn't I informed of this before I left?"
"Hmmm I don't know. May it's because of my being of a higher rank than you." Sez shrugged and looked out the window down to Zoness. He saw a platform floating out on the water. As they neared Sez could see through the rain that it wasnt just a platform but a whole floating city.
"Welcome to Zoness Capital City Sez." The ship set down in a hangar and the hatch opened. Vixo hopped out followed by Sez. A man dressed in a Green Flight suit came up to them.
"Ah you two must be with the Cornerian Military." Vixo nodded "Im Lieutenent 1st Class Vixo McCloud. This is Corporal 2nd Class Sezidan Shardeth. Do you have his housing?" The man's hands fumbled through his pockets.
"Ah yes here it is. You have an apartment in Downtown Capital City. Small 1 Bedroom apartment." Sez took the key from the man.
"Well sir thank you for your time. Come on Vixo lets go find my apartment." The two left the hangar,Sez stealing an umbrella, and walked into Capital City. They walked down the streets taking in all the crazy buildings and billboards. They finally made it to the apartment building where Sez was going to live. It was right across the street from a "Gentleman's club titled The Silver Fox. Vixo noticed Sez reading the sign as the walked into the building.
"Sez! Your here on a mission you don't have time to be doing that!" Sez quickly turned his attention back to the apartment building.
"hehe yea i know man." They found the apartment on the fifth floor and went inside. It was a run down room. Flowery wallpaper was falling from the walls. A green sofa was in the living room facing a Holo TV. The kitchen had old wooden cabinets with a rusting stove and refigerator. The bathroom was relativly clean atleast.
"Hey Vixo wanna stay for a while?" Vixo looked at Sez.
"Sorry I gotta get back to the Freedom. Maybe Ill come visit you on leave time." The two said their farewells to each other and Vixo left leaving Sez alone.
