"Did you hear the news, Dad?"

Seven year old Andreas Vondiranach walked into his fathers office on the underground floor of the castle. Military officers usually found their offices there as the castle was heavily protected. Kamon looked up at his son and shook his head to signify that he had not. Whatever the news was, he hadn't heard it.

"What is it?"

"Abregado-Rae has fallen to the ORS."

Kamon looked a bit surprised at the news. He hadn't been expecting to hear that. He thought his son was going to tell him about how his daughter Amarie had run off to the plains again.

"Really now? That's interesting. Who was in charge?"

"Well, it would seem a General MeVere..."

"General MeVere? The General MeVere that helped us defeat the Wraith forces back before the fleet was built?"

"Ummm..."

"Come on. This is in your history book."

"Oh, yeah him. He seems to have been the mastermind behind the whole thing. Anyways, it would seem they need assistance in the way of food and supplies. They also need help rebuilding."

"All services we can provide. Go on."

"That's it."

"Hmmm. Go find your sister and then meet me back here."

"K."

Andreas ran off out the door and Kamon smiled behind him. The boy was already showing leadership qualioties not to mention the intelligence of someone his age. Probably more. Both Andreas and Amarie, while smaller than most kids, are smarter than most of them. And they already exhibit minor control over the Force. Kamon lifted his comm.

"Jane, get me Admiral Delrain."

"Yes, sir."

It wasn't long after he had given the order that there came a knock on his office door. He looked up from his paperwork and called for the person to enter. Admiral Delrain, a highly decorated Admiral of the Fleet, stepped into the room and saluted. Kamon waved the salute away and motioned for her to sit.

"We're going to Abregado-Rae. I need a task force prepared and loaded with food stuffs."

"Easily done. I see you saw the news."

"Actually no. My son told me."

"Smart boy. I'll get on it."

"Good. Alert me when you're ready."

"Yes, sir."

"Come on, Amarie. Dad wants us to go to his office."

"Oh but I like watching the flight sims. It's fun."

"I know but dad wants us."

"Oh alright."

She climbed down out of the chair and walked with her brother out of the sim control booth. Following her brother down the hall and past a few security checkpoints, they walked into their fathers office to see him on the comm talking.

"Alright, thank you Admiral. We'll be up shortly."

"Yes, sir."

Kamon clipped the comm on his belt and looked at his two children as they walked in. He stood up and walked over to give them a hug. They hugged him back and he smiled at them.

"We need to go get our prepacked luggage. We're going to Abreagod-Rae to help out ORS."

"We are?" Amarie asked.

"Yes. Your brother so kindly pointed out to me that ORS has taken the planet and they need supplies and assistance. We're going to provide both."

"Cool!"

"Let's go."

He took them both by the hand and led them out of the room and down the hall towards the turbolift. Upon entering, Kamon keyed it to take them up to the palace section and they walked over to a closet just inside the entrance. Pulling out three bags, an aide took them and headed off for the ship.

"If you need anything else you best get it now."

"Ohh, I need dolly!"

Amarie ran off up the stairs to go get her doll and Kamon and Andreas stood waiting for her. Kamon had given his son a training saber for his last birthday and Andreas carried it everywhere. Which meant he already had it. Amarie came back down the stairs with her doll in hand and the three of them went down the turbolift and down the long hall to the hangar. Their shuttle was waiting and they climbed aboard.

"Take her away, Captain."

"Yes, sir."
