Another Military Branch

Chapter 20: Observatory

Louis prefers to retire to see if his research is going well, Bhaal accompanies him. The rest of the team is trying to find out what they are doing there.

(William): do you have something to tell us ?
(3): we want to make this base our market benchmark.
(Curtis): forgive me but...are you kidding ?
(2): not in the least. This place is perfect.
(Biakhov): Do you want to use our base as a warehouse ?
(1): exactly my little lady.
(William): please come out of my house. I'm not in the mood to take care of you.
(2): we can manage on our own you know ?
(Bhaal): William ? Louis has something to tell you.
(Cutris): About..?
(Bhaal): I don't know he was totally panicked.

the small team accompanied by the triplets go to the base observatory. Eurus was the only one who had never been there and she made it clear.

(Eurus): it's extraordinary !
(Biakhov): welcome to Louis's office.
(1): what do you want to tell us my chick ?
(Louis): firstly you are not concerned and secondly I forbid you to call me like that. William, look at this. Perfect alignment, finally.
(William): good. We will have to take advantage of it.
(Curtis): should we warn the others ?
(Bhaal): especially not. Putting two shadows together is very dangerous.
(Eurus): what are you talking about ?
(Louis): have you never had an alignment ?
(Eurus): no never, I don't even know what it is.
(William): you still have a lot to learn.
(Eurus): I would like to have explanations rather than this kind of... thoughts.
(1): I like this girl.
(2): you will surely need some material, right ?
(3): an alignment like this is very special. We are here for that you know ?

an interminable silence followed the words of the triplets, this one was broken by Biakhov who awaits as many explanations as his comrade.
