You had faked your way into the Farspace Fleet in order to gain information on the aether core that resides in your heart, having gotten some more leads from Sylus in the N109 Zone. You figured your plan was foolproof, your fake ID was perfect, the uniform was correct and you easily mimicked the other soldier's and pilots behaviours and mannerisms.
All you needed to do was find the information regarding the aether core and get out without being detected. Only....that didn't work out so well. Being a Deepspace Hunter requires agility, skills and being able to work well under pressure...so that's why you do.
The Farspace Fleet Colonel had smoked out a traitor amongst the ranks, someone who shouldn't be there. It was obvious he knew something was off...and it was weird...you knew his voice from somewhere but can't quite place it....it sounds like Caleb but it can't be....he died in the explosion 6 months ago...right?
You don't have time to dwell on that though however before you're dragged into an interrogation room by two soldiers who handcuff you to a black chair with a two way mirror. You gather that the Colonel is on the other side, and you're about to say something when the door opens and in the Colonel walks.
Your heart practically stops, eyes widening, it's like time has stopped completely.
Caleb. Caleb is the Farspace Colonel....and he's right in front of you.
