Lieutenant Anton Richards: Someone Said Exploring

[Writer Guy]

((Outside Shuttle Port of I’shal, I-Kiyo Dyson Ring))

The chase was on and Anton rushed through the crowded shuttle port trying his best not to run into anyone as he slipped through groups and families. The sleeves of his uniform were rolled up and his arms were marked with lines and symbols in what Anton hoped was just paint.

“There is no way that blob could have gotten away so quickly,” he thought to himself. He turned himself around in a circle and placed his hands on his knees panting. He noticed that his uniform was covered in grease and dirt. He was back to where he had started somehow, and he hadn’t gotten any closer to closing the deal that his father was so adamant took place. 

He straightened up and when he did the blob of a character that he had been chasing was gone and instead stood Josh Herrick and Kimonzi Lahl. Anton approached, unconscious to his unfortunate appearance. He waved.

Richards: Hello! I was wondering if I was gonna see anyone else from the crew.

Herrick: Fancy meeting you here, the ensign and I were just about to go exploring toward… ::looking to Lahl::

Anton thought about asking them if they had seen the man he had been chasing pass through, but internally Anton had already given up on his search. He wasn’t really sure why he had gone through such lengths in the first place. 

Richards: Exploring you say? Are you guys looking for some back up?

Lahl: Response

Herrick: Of course, join us!

Anton inspected his dirty uniform once more, he probably should return to the ship, but maybe he could find a change of clothes along the way.

Richards: Which way were we headed?

Lahl/Herrick: Response
