Saek's First Day

[Saek tr'Vosh 0]

After taking the precursory tour with t'Ditsy, Vosh was called to Dheno. The general tone of the voice over the intercom let him know in NA uncertain terms this would NA be a pleasant meeting.

 

In hind sight, he should have studied the specs on the Talon in advance. He had studied all the classes at school. But that had been so long ago, now. All he had done lately was try to avoid any contact with his family. Which, as an only child, had proven a difficult task.

 

So, not knowing where he was going, he was forced to ask for Ditsy's help...an event he did na plan to duplicate. She told/showed him the way with her trademark flair. He didnt bother with parting pleasantries. He chose, instead to march directly into the mouth of the beast...for that is exactly what lay ahead.

 

The only indication he was facing a female officer was the voice he had heard over the PA. She was na attractive. As tall as Vosh and almost as muscular, she was an imposing character...then she opened her mouth and went from imposing to full blown intimidation.

 

After a brief verbal beating, Vosh assertained that the best way to deal with t'Vixen was to yy'a her with kindness(or possibly, later, just yy'a her). A skilled diplomat, for his age, Vosh knew the best way to handle Vixen was to use her strength against her. It was as good a strategy as any.

 

His assignment was simple...feed, water, guard the prisoners in the br'tehh. One of which was apparently the Daise Dheno, NDak. In a chance encounter with the KhreRiov...Vosh learned that not only did Vixen not like this NDak...but that the KhreRiov didn't necessarily care for Vixen. This was intriguing in that it increased the potential for promotion drastically. If he could stay out of the spotlight long enough, these two could destroy one another leaving him the spoils. He wondered if tr'Lahir was finding this kind of "loyalty" in maenek.

 

With both parents as maeneks, Vosh had been constantly exposed to various maenek terminologies as well as general maenek knowledge. With a little research and help from tr'Lahir..he could come up with something to take care of Vixen as well as keep him out of suspicion...just in case his superiors didnt wipe one another out.

 

Vosh smiled...a cruel smile...he enjoyed being prepared. He re-entered Dheno after retrieving his Kaleh and disruptor from the Armory. Vixen took great pleasure in pointing to his ridiculously small desk in the rear of the room. For his part, Vosh was fine with it. Small, poorly lit, and out of the way; here he could fade into the shadows when necessary. He sat at his desk and began studying the layout of the RES TALON. He would na be caught na knowing another location.
