"No, Jasmine, I promise you, I have no idea what is going on."

On the screen before Gabriel Zell, Jasmine Albright, Captain of the Divine Vision and defacto Commander of the 2nd KIDF visibly fumed. "How can they possibly not tell you about decommission? And if they're decommissioning two fleets, what the hell are they going to do with all of you?"

"I wish I knew, Jasmine, I wish I knew." Gabriel replied, furrowing his brow. He had to admit, he was a bit frustrated. He was, essentially, being kept as in the dark about what was going on as the others. "Something big must be happening, I've never heard of 50 ships being decommissioned at once. And without ships, I don't know where they plan on reassigning us. I'll let you know as soon as I find out something, if I can. In the mean time, keep your ears open. Two Raptor-class Angelan vessels got into a confrontation with an Arpean freighter. Took out a few TYCS vessels, too. Damn good people, lost for nothing. I dont want the same happening to you, too."

Jasmine gave a slightly reassuring smirk. "We'll keep our eyes peeled, Gabe. They won't catch us unready. Keep in touch. Albright out."

Zell sighed as the display faded away. He gave a wistful look towards the picture of his wife atop his desk, the last such picture taken of her before she was killed in the attack on Berserker. "May the Suns guide my path, Helen. I wish I knew what was going on."

He strode from his Cabin onto the Bridge. "Helm, set course for The Ring, best speed. Convey our course and speed to the rest of the fleet."
