The dream was always the end goal for everyone was it not? To live their life to the fullest with the end goal in mind. There were dreamers who wished they could do what they wanted and then they were doers that were out there trying to achieve the end. A new high end well established yacht bar/casino had opened up just recently. This wonderful little number brought the attraction for all days that saw it as a new setting rather than the traditional building parties, this one was on a boat! For those who wanted entry a small fee would be asked for, for those who had much higher authority and known throughout the galaxy didn't need to pay a fee. Since Surge was new to this part of the galaxy and his empire wasn't known as of yet, he paid the former way. Now having entered and heaving towards a different section of the party and away from the crowd, he headed straight towards the pool region where people were placing bets on who would win. Surge would calmly be standing in a corner watching the game unfold between two different parties that he had no idea who they were and simply drinking some good ale and enjoying the sportsman ship of it all. Tech, his red brenchian recruit had stood beside him. A slender, square glasses, and crisp and elegant uniform that a recruit would wear with the insignia of the Galactic Storm Fleet on his upper left chest region. The brenchian had briefly fixed his glasses in place as he took a sip of his rum beverage in one of the most expensive glasses that money could buy. He looked to his superior commander who was the leader of the entire fleet and was a bit curious. He clearly spoke in whispers and away from the crowd as he looked up to see Surge.
"Sir if I may ask, why haven't we conquered this planet yet?"
Surge eyed the idle crowd for a brief moment and shifted his eyes down to the rookie.
"Yes this is a voyage we are doing, this isn't a luxury vacation. However unlike the other planets that we have "aided", this particular planet hasn't asked us or needed our help. We don't even know who the leader is. Unlike the vast that have villages, this planet has massive cities. We have to thread lightly during our times of secrecy and learn more about the planet we have entered. A normal voyage takes around three to five years of completion, one that done in secret takes more time. Though all of that depends on one thing. Allies who meet the same goal and aspect as you do in order to accomplish the same desire. Which could be meet quicker than simple years. Now go off and mingle with the other guest and tell me what else you can discover about this planet."
"I will sir, thank you for the advice."
Soldiers never know what the General is thinking and doing behind the scenes. Which is how Surge operated and as the rookie left the room and started his own investigation, Surge on the other hand kept idle to himself as he drank his nice cold ale in the process. As one of the parties won their victory for their first game, Surge had cheered for the victor.
"Nicely done you guys!"
He raised his arm in high support and in spirit, the ones who won looked over his way and did the same, one of them even spoke up.
"Would you care to join us?"
"No no, don't let me ruin your winning streak, I am here to just enjoy the show."
They went about their business once again and Surge went about his, leaving the area and heading to the quiet indoor Jacuzzi area where it had little to no people in it. One part of the area had a couple who was enjoying their company together, the next was a middle age man, and lastly it was Surge who kept to himself and leaned against the edge of the yacht, looking out of the horizon and enjoying the view before him. Taking a sip of his ale that was slowly becoming more empty than he had realized.
