Reverse Fantasy

After explaining the mess of a group of powerful Psionically capable nobles wanting to take care of me this week, on top of a Praetorian wanting to follow me around. Sophia was not angry like I thought she might be, but she was stressed. She would have to do a lot of things tonight that would mask some of her more obvious criminal and alien activities. 

She kindly asked me to go spend time with Orchid upstairs as she had a lot to do, which was just a polite way of telling me I would be a hindrance, and she was probably right so I made my way upstairs.

The door to the apartment had not even dinged open before Orchid was standing before me in her armoured form with both her weapons in hand. She had a frenzied look in her eye as she checked inside of the elevator and the surroundings for the being that had put me in the state I was in.
