Location: Hindenburg Docking Station, Munich
POV: Kyle's
The Gold skulls on the convoy disembarked from their truck, grabbed their equipment and started to embark on the Hindenburg. ''Marshall! She is ready to take off at your command Sir!'' The captain who was waiting for me at the passenger entrance said. ''Sir onboard there is your badge, it has the 7 stars of our command Hierarchy, but also 5 Guns and sword crosses on it. Guns and crosses represent your martial art skill. Rudolf has implemented that yesterday when the debate at the HQ finished.'' Zero said while we were walking up the stairs to the passenger area of the Hindenburg. ''Captain, take off at optimum times, I give this decision to you. You are the captain, not me.'' I smiled at him before entering. The captain was baffled, but his respect grew deeper. 'I am A commander, not a captain, not a doctor, not an engineer. I do my job they do theirs, I am not that selfish as to disregard skill above authority.' I said to myself.
I entered my office specially designed for me, it has a desk, 3 chairs, a couch, radio equipment, secretary table, emergency exit right behind me and a door at the left leading to my cabin. A few parachutes are also located next to the emergency exit. 'Not bad, I quite like it' I said down on the head chair behind the desk. Zero stood behind me as always, the other 4 gold skull officers were standing in a row in front of my desk. ''There is a traitor in our mists gentlemen, it is one of you four, or all of you four, that I cannot yet tell. Hence why all weaponry was confiscated. from left to right, step forwards on at the time and extend your left hand.'' I ordered them. They all obeyed the command, each officer stood forward one at the time extending their left hand, I lightly touched them will waiting for the system to give a warning. 'the system can give Loyalty warnings if at extreme levels by just looking, but if it is lower I have to touch them.' I clarified this problem, yet none of them had low loyalty level, instead, they were as high as Zero's Loyalty level!
'Did the SS anticipate? Or is there a traitor in the higher levels?' Many thoughts flash through my mind, yet none can give me a satisfactory answer.
''All personnel get ready, we will be leaving for London in 15 minutes.'' the captain said through the intercom. ''You are all dismissed, I am sorry for doubting your loyalty,'' I said to the men. ''Nonono, Marshall!, one always needs to be wary, we do not take this to heart, it only motivates us to become your impregnable shield, your sharpest knife even more!'' The 4 said in unison.
The Hindenburg took off, slowly flying towards London.''Sir, it is time for Dinner, would you like to go to the Dining hall or eat it in the office?'' Zero asked. ''I will head to the dining hall, I am not shying away from my own men Zero,'' I replied.
I stood up, and together with Zero head to the dining hall, there were more people than just my personnel in the dining hall, famous figures were here as well. But when I entered they were all silent, they know who owns the place and he doesn't look like the guy you want to mess with. I sat down at the head of a long table, Zero took the seat left of me. when I say down did the other soldiers and personnel sit down as well. There was steak with potatoes and vegetables. I sat in silence, enjoying the good food which I haven't head in a while. After dinner I head towards the onboard library, feeling curious about what there is. I walk to the science section looking to find a good read, I saw a chemistry book on particles and reached for it, just when I touch it phone vibrates, I ignore it and open the book. It is named:''Particles of our universe'' I read a few pages it is all speculation on what atoms consists off and other materials, there was no concrete reasoning so even though the writer is correct it has to give proof. I open another few books, but they are all just speculation.
I sigh, 'Why is it all so backwater, where is the physics the chemistry the biology I know.' I and Zero walked back to my Office, it was 20:00, ''Zero you can leave, I will sleep early today.'' I waved him away and walked through the door on the left side of my office to my cabin, which was luxuriously decorated it also is only one of the 2 cabins with its own windows to look outside. 'I wonder if I can armour a Zeppelin, or continue the golden age of the airships...' i started to think of a very distant plan, little did I know that this plan for a zeppelin will strike fear into the world like never seen before.
The trip lasted 1 day, we arrived the next day at 13:00, ''It was an honour to have you, onboard Marshall!'' the captain said before I disembarked the Hindenburg. I gave a light salute to the captain, signalling my satisfaction with the trip. ''Sir, the Black Hands here have already created a small escort for you of converted British people who also agree with our ideals. They are all external members though, so watch our sir.'' Zero said as we entered the black Bentley, which seems to have been modified. Zero took the wheel.''You have experience driving on the left Zero?'' I asked him. ''Yes sir, we have been trained to work in every environment, driving on the left was one of the many skills we learned. Also, sir, this Bentley has been designed with many nifty features. I do hope we won't need to use them though.'' He replied.
As a convoy of 4 identical cars did we head for the inner area of London, where the intelligence gathering sector already build an outpost. We stopped in front of the building, the men of the other 3 cars exited first, all having a revolver holstered and ready to protect their marshall. I stepped out of the car and headed inside while walking inside the converted British men all saluted in English. ''In the marshall we trust!'' they said, not to loud to attract attention. I immediately spoke with perfect English to them, ''Thank you for joining our organisation, I guarantee you that you will not regret it,'' I patted 2 of them on the shoulder as i went in. The leader of the outpost was on one knee together with the other black hand men, and shouted:''IN THE MARSHALL WE TRUST!'' ''At ease men'' I replied.
They all stood up, the leader stepped forward, ''Sir, we have contacted the men you wanted, we have 3 meetings planned, one with Sydney Camm, one with the CEO of the Luftschiffbau Zeppelin who is currently residing on London for Holidays and the designer board of British Battleships. The latter was very hard to convince it was only after showing 500 million RM did they agree to meet.'' ''Thank you, I will prepare for tomorrow, lead me to my office i need to check somethings'' I replied.
I went to my office and took out my phone, I totally forgot about it since I never had anything to spend:
'Congratulations on finding the theory of relativity, Quantum mechanics, Quarks, etc. These ideas were in process of coming to life during the 1930s but had no significant proof. We grade them as rare. 100,000 TUs are designated to the Wanderer.'
'FINALLY!' I screamed in my head, I have a bit of time unit's to spend!' I was agitated but calmed down immediately. 'We must prepare for war. So blueprints, materials, equipment, etc are highest on priority!' I started to list down some priorities before going to discuss them back at HQ with the sector heads.
