Chapter 1 - Planet S610

Dora the Senior Master put her pen down yet again, she was tasked with writing Mia’s progress report for the year to send it off to a destination she will never see, to a person she had no idea about. This would be her 19th report, of which she was unsure if her reports contained the required information or if they were of any use to the person on the other end receiving them. Like clockwork every year, she received a request for the update on Mia and a generous number of coins to cover her keep for another year.Mia wasn’t like the other children brought to be trained in the balance of Planet S610. She was much younger that the others, brought here when she was only 5 months old baby. The other children delivered here are much older, aged 8 to 13 normally, orphans with no family to care for them. Most starving and glad to be here with regular meals and clean clothes and Masters to teach and care for them.Mia was also different in the fact that,

Chapter 2 - Captain Jay

Then Rota head a voice. “Wait, Princess”She turned to find two of the guards running after her.“Sorry for the intrusion” said the first male guard, coming to stop in front of them with a bow of his head. He was obviously the leader of this detachment.She acknowledged him with a smile“You shouldn’t be unprotected, have you had a guard assigned to you?” he saidRota shocked by this suggestion replied “no, but I am inside the palace. Surely I don’t need . . . “Her voice drifted off as earlier events surfaced“Normally, no it wouldn’t be necessary. We will protect you until a guard is assigned. We would normally be with your father . . .” he paused re- thinking his words “but he doesn’t require our services . . . at the moment” He finished“Were you on his detail when . . . it happened” Rota’s voice waivered a bit.

“I’ll need to call in my finding to my superior, Kat can you”Kat’s reply came even before he had finished “Yep”Jay headed up the hall out of earshot pulling his com screen from his pocket, he clicked on his superior’s secured line and was greeted with “Jay report!”“Did corporal Gus, report to you? Have you seen our preliminary?”“Negative”Confused Jay continued “I sent Corporal Gus back to you almost 20mins ago, he should have that document in your hand by now,”“You fill me in, I need something to go on now! and your explanation will be better than any report”Jay quickly brought him up to speed, filling him in on his gut feeling about the assignation attempt, the princess’s safety and the listening devices discovered in her private apartments. He also requested to have his team be delegated to the princess’s protecti

Chapter 4 - The truth

The princesses eye widened as they shot to his “Con con cea ling” she stammered“Yes” Jay’s voice was gentle but firm “Will you trust me?” and he gestured to her sleeve.The princess remained quiet for a little bit then gave the women quick glances, they all seemed to come to the same conclusion without words.Rota’s voice came out clear and resolved “I know, who you are Captain Jay, at least what your service record says, you impressed my father, you know. You are to date, the only guard the King himself requested to be on his protection. It was him who transferred you from the military to the guard and at his request you be made captain straight away. You got the highest scores in all your practical exams and still hold most of the shooting records. You alone have complete 2/3 of all the electives available to you in the Military and are probably more qualified than most Generals. Your team under you are co

Chapter 5 - Mia

Mia woke, stretching as smile played on her lips even before she open her eyes, she secretly loved this time of morning, waking up a few minutes before the day bell. She would snuggle down in her warm bed, wrap her covers around her tighter and enjoy the feel of it.She let her mind prepare for today’s activities. This morning she was rostered on the gorge run, her favourite run. Then the supply ship was due just after lunch, she had ordered some cargo pants like what they use in the military and new boots for herself, she had waited a full month already and was desperate to know if they fit right. From her only experience of living her whole life on this remote planet, she figured that waiting for her shopping orders was the worst.Her feet hit the ground and yep, the bell sounded. She dressed in a long sleeve t-shirt, and tights, tossed her shoulder length dark brown wavy hair up in a messy bun. She then slipped her comm into her back pocket and wrapped her ele

Chapter 6 - The Gorge

She entered the run’s changeroom and went to her locker to pull out her orange outside suit, and checked it over for damage or weak spots. They had to wear them whenever they went out, it protected them from the elements, the harsh cold and unforgiving rays of light that reflected into the solar system. You could survive outside without a suit but it wasn’t pleasant. It was freezing and if you got hit by a ray of light it felt like an ice cold knife being dragged across your skin, it left a red mark too.Jenny and Mac entered the room too. They were the other runners for this morning.“Hey Mia” Jenny said“Hey guys” Mia replied“Going to set a new record this morning” Mac teased“Nah” Said Mia “I don’t think you will be catching my old record anytime soon; I don’t want to make it even harder for you guys”“Ha!” said Mac “don’t worry, I

He pulled our his comm screen and send a group message to his core team to meet him at Princess Rota’s apartments. His core team were the people he had trained from the start. He had other guards beneath him but they were transfers from other squads or new recruits that he hadn’t had time to asse yet. No he would only use the people he knew for now because there was the possibility of it being an inside job.Beeves & Boris were the first to show up, they were already on their way before they got Jay’s message.

Chapter 8 - Bunny

Captain Jay’s call to his superior went off without a hitch, Kat was authorised to watch the princess and they had permission to follow up on the lead but he would need a spaceship, and a crew who he could trust. He thought for a minute and then he smiled, Bunny, she owes me a big favour and she would make this mission fun. He found her on his comm screen, and clicked on her line.“Hey bunny”A loud cheery female voice was on the other end “Oh hey Jay, you remember how to get in touch with me now”“Nope, I remembered you own me a favour, a big fat favour and I’m calling it in”“Oh gosh” There was scoffing laugh on the other end of the line “I forgot you really are the most direct person I ever knew. What . . .  could you possibly ever want from me?“A spaceship that I can borrow for 1 week, without anyone asking questions, and maybe a couple of trusted crew members”

Chapter 9 – Planet Guizer

Mia had a Planet History class after her morning run & shower with Master Alex. It would be in room 2a. She was a little early so decided to go via the mess hall and help herself to a choc custard. She only allowed herself to have a little a week because she loved them so much and unchecked this addiction could ruin her figure. She had a classic hourglass figure, or she had been told by one of the girls that read all the rich people gossip news, that she had absolutely no interest in. She had left her thick wavy hair out because it was still drying from the shower but now it was starting to annoy her so she chucked it up in a piggy tail and headed for class.Master Alex was in the room waiting, so was Mac and the other trainees, just Jenny was missing.“Trainee’s get your comm’s out and open the document Planet Guizer History and start reading until you get to chapter 5.”There was a collective groan, Mia didn’t actually know mu

Chapter 10 – Sleep over

At the unloading dock the younger trainees where already starting to carry the smaller parcels inside to put in the mess hall, the older trainees would use the trolleys and move the bigger supplies, that were in metal shipping crates. There were about 20 crates to unload and then empty crates that were delivered last month were loaded abord. The whole process took about two hours.Most of the trainees then wondered back in via the mess hall to check for their parcels they ordered. This was the most exciting time on Planet S610.There wouldn’t be any other classes for the rest of the day so Mia found her parcels and went to her room to try them on. She tried on the cargo pants, they fit her alright although they clung to her legs and were a lot tighter than she imagined they should be, but they felt nice on, the material was stretchy and they moved with her. She then tried her new boots on. Perfect fit. Just as well, normally in the past she would have traded with
