" Excuse me, sir. You asked to be notified if there was news. The Chancellor is still in surgery, but we have I.D.ed the shooter. Bellamy Blake is the only person on The Ark unaccounted for. " Shumway informed as I looked at the tablet
"Who is he?" I asked
"He's no one, a janitor. We're still working up a profile, but his motive for going to Earth is clear." He said as my face hardened as Shumway swiped the screen and a girl appeared next to Blake
"Sister. I remember. Her mother kept her hidden for almost sixteen years, nearly a record. What is it, Commander Shumway. Spit it out. " I asked Shumway as I kept looking at the photos
"We could start now. As Chancellor pro tempore, you can give the order to start reducing the population." Shumway leaned in
"Not yet." I said not really in the mood to reduce population when knowing my daughter was on earth.
"Sir, we're wasting time. Removing the one hundred from the population only buys us another month. Engineering needs more than that to fix those systems, if they can fix them at all. " Shumway insisted as I took a deep breath
" You have my answer, Commander. Enough. If we're gonna kill hundreds of innocent people, we're gonna do it by the book. Is that clear?
In the meantime, I want to know who helped this janitor get on that drop ship because he sure as hell didn't do it by himself. Seems we have a traitor in our midst, Commander, and the hundred have an assassin in theirs." I said thinking of my daughter I walked away from him and back towards the Command center
" How's my daughter Jackson?" Was the first thing I asked when I got there.
"She's fine. Blood sugar is a little low, she must have not ate yet." He said as I nodded
"You're sure she fine?" I asked again as he nodded
"She's doing perfect." He said with a smile as I looked up at the board.
