"I was imprisoned from the start of the mission." Byron told Brody. "Goodman Eduardo saw it all."

That seemed to be the answer Zekoff wanted to here.

"Of course, we wouldn't leave you choice-less."

Jang-La objected, however, "With all due respect to Xiaojie Mizrahi, I do not think she should be the one to decide who leads this task force.  She is an outsider to this conflict.  She has no knowledge of it."

"That makes her the best descision." Zekoff said. "We get a perfectly unbiased opinion.  My choice, for commander," Zekoff continued, ignoring Jang-La's objection, "is Lieutenant Petra Voligrad." He motioned over his shoulder for the Lieutenant to step forward. "She has shown remarkable valor and no doubt has leadership skills."

"I have two,"  Howard said, deciding to go along with this. "An officer that been in leadership for quite some time, a Sergeant Major Carter."

Zekoff snorted at the drop of the name, but didn't speak out against Howard. No... Zekoff had his own idea, and it was slowly forming. ''Captain Aleksandra's innane interest in that worthless project might actually be of some use after all. ''He thought.

Howard, after sparing Zekoff a glance, listened a second name, "I also have a recent addition to my ship.  A marine from the surface who already has a mission objective to investigate the alien menace.  Commander John Brody, who also has years of combat and leadership experience beneath his belt.  I can get you both of their files, if you are interested."

"I have one." Jang-La spoke softly. "Lieutenant Colonel Shaojie Zhang.  He is a Crimson Dragoon operative of extreme skill.  He also possesses leadership skills comparable to what Admiral Howard listed."
