How is the project, the Corporal asked. I didn't dare answer. The Corporal could not have known of this. He has become too.. curious. He is a threat to us. The PELICAN ships out parts each day. Even with the Corporal on it he should not have known. If he is lying he will pay for it. If he is not he will as well. We are a secret; we are the final link between humanity and salvation.

Still. Johann has finally finished his work on the thrusters. We will be able to fly out three- no, four light years. The Ganymede is fast. I respect Johann and his team- he does not even know what he is doing this for. It is of the utmost secrecy. Only my team- and the pilots- and maybe, the Corporal knows about it. The Ganymede can, and will, carry two hundred people at most. Even our Prime Minister does not know about it. The Senate is oblivious. Our only contact inside the Government is the Vice Minister. He- Robin- started the project, after all. He supplies us with what we need. Money is nothing now. What we need is material.. is knowledge.. is time. We need time. Aron and his crew are not even ready yet. The PELICAN itself will follow Ganymede until..

Until it cannot. The Corporal will undoubtedly ask for his place in the Ganymede, not the PELICAN. He is a problem, even more as I think about him. We cannot take any chances. OP_Chastity must succeed. It must.
