Chapter 83

THE MTECH LAB looked untouched since Leon had last seen it three days

prior, with the exception of the Mysaran landing craft no longer occupying

the employee parking lot. The Guard landing shuttle set down at the end of

the lot closest to the lab.

“It’s so weird. I feel like I was just here,” Ari jested.

“Yeah, yeah, I know.” Leon hopped out of the landing shuttle and

stretched.

It’d been a long day of travel on the Raven and it felt great to be on solid

land again. Only three days and I’m already missing being planetside. Not a

great start for his new Guard career in space.

The soldiers opened up the back of the shuttle to prep it for their mission.

Though the craft wasn’t a cargo vessel, the equipment Leon was after should

fit in the rear cargo area that was typically reserved for mission-specific tech

and armaments. Each team member wore standard body armor and carried a

multi-handgun, but with any luck, even those wouldn’t come into play.
