"Approaching target, ETA 20 minutes, jumping out of hyperspace in 5 minutes," an ensign said,
"Sir?" the Captain looked at Rico for any inputs, Rico said into his private commlink. They couldn't hear him, or see him talking, hell, they didn't even know his real face and voice. He was wearing full combat armor and have the external voice changer on the entire time. He gave orders to his men and women...although some would argue they were boys and girls.
Rico said,
"All stations check in with a click,"
On his HUD, he could see who the click was from, everyone checked in, good.They all have bead-sized commlinks in their ears, with sensors that picked up sub-vocalization and converted it to sound.
"Good, ETA 20, keep your eyes open and stay concealed, the Triple-R and the BHG is coming aboard, stay sharp, I don't want them spotting us and keep your eyes peeled for any disguised friendlies, don't ruin the Royal Executioner's reputation and show them how its done,"
"Yes sir!"
"Rico, out!"
He turned off his commlink and the captain said,
"Sir? Any orders?"
Rico said,
"I want two extra platoons of marines to escort the incoming food and cargo from the station,"
"Yes sir," the captain already gave in to arguing with Rico, because he never gave a straight answer. He really felt sorry for the captain, to have to swallow pride and eat such humble pie, but he didn't have time to feel sorry for anyone, including for his own and his sore body.
"Carry on, captain,"
"Aye, aye,"
"I will be with the cargo escort," Rico said, standing up and checking his weapons for the nth time, more out of boredom then nessecity.
"Suit yourself sir," the captain said.
He exited the bridge and used a military personnel-only corridor to the marines unit.
At the designated time, the ship docked in the station and he deployed with 4 platoons of marines to the cargo bay of the space station, he, of course stayed in the marines shuttle.
