The viscous liquid travelled up his throat and bubbled and drooled out of his mouth some being propelled with force while the bulk ran down his chin or fell to his chest, stomach, legs or feet . as it did so it joined the same liquid that already blanketing his skin. Taking another few uneven steps forward Richard felt the strength start to make its way painfully into his muscles. He had been in the capsule for easily 48hours and the time now weighed on his body every inch hurt, the water was like a good right hook to the temple and some of the drowsiness left him as his senses started to return.
Ten minutes
later he was fully clothed are walking out to meet his fellows.
“Namas Sri
Masseri.”
“Namas.” Richard responded appraising the man with a glance
The man was thin heavily tattooed with a drawn face and no noticeable hair, he was wearing a sharp black suit with ruby red lapels.
“I trust
everything is to your liking Sri.”
The room was fairly spacious and in addition to Richard and the unnamed man there were nine others in military garb all whose faces were covered wearing the standard protective face gear of marines or bodyguards.
Richard smiled “That really does depend doesn’t it, but you have definitely done your best and that I am grateful for that.”
The man smiled bowed low and left the room one of the other men followed him out.
Another of the men then came over and passed a neocom to the capsuleer and Richard took it tapped in his passcode, immediately his interest was elsewhere looking at production facilities and market data with a flick of his fingers one of the walls showed a much enlarged image of his industrial facilities on Intaki I through to VII and with rapid vigour he set to work.
Many hours
later Richard entered another room at its centre was a bed the cream sheets
felt soft to the touch and Richard laid his body down onto them, the lights in
the roam continued to pour there glare upon the room but eventually Richards
eyes closed and he began to slumber.
Outside of the
mobile structure a cruiser sat cloaked awaiting the return of its pilot work
teams and drones milled around and took guard duty shifts some even visited the
structure taking there own time to rest up the atmosphere was hushed and
complacent if something was changing none there openly admitted it.
