A month after the m******e Violet and Mason were sent on a mission together. She wasn’t used to being sent on missions with others. Especially not with someone so far below her in rank. Mason was just another ordinary foot soldier. Why had the Commander decided to team her up with someone so unqualified for the kind of tasks that she dealt with? It made her uneasy. Mason was now her responsibility. They were on their way to a location that one of Venator's interrogators had uncovered as an imperialist base. It was an old abandoned imperial factory of some kind that was fairly far away from anything at all resembling civilization. There weren’t even any small villages around. It had been a while since this factory had been searched and it wasn’t supposed to be operational.
