Isaac's POV.
Sweat dripping down my neck as I jog around the Axel Circle. Just then Colonel Memo Stravinsky speaks from the system.
'All EMDM present in area 47, gather in the main station. The meeting about the Salyut-5 2.0 mission will begin after 10 minutes'
After a few reminders, I go back to my dorm, the LIS-22, and it looks like a capsule and have a unique architecture. I heard that it was designed by the former chief warrant officer 5, I must thank her for designing good stuffs.
I shower and wear the Earth Ministry of Defense uniform. It is a white long coat with black and blue linings partnered with leather pants and black boots.
I was a halfway done with my shoelace when I remember I have to call Zone.
'Sorry the number you're calling is unattended'
Unattended? It's the first time he didn't answer my call, maybe his phone is lowbat.
I finish up with a cherry lipstick and go to the main station.
Four years have past and it was like a blur to me. It's like everything happened very fast. I woke up in the hospital, left the house, enrolled to the EMDA, promoted to be the Lieutenant Colonel of the Earth Ministry of Defense.
And now, we are in a big mission and according to the International Space Station (ISS), the Clavian Moon Station (CMS) is plotting some evil doings.
They're planning to make their own Ether System using the energy from the earth's exploded crust by the means of nuclear bomb. They want to hack the data base of every country that have a nuclear bomb so that they can control it.
I opened the door of the meeting room and the other officals greet me.
"Lieutenant Colonel Isaac Clavian," they salute me and I did the same.
But the one thing that scares me is that I don't image fighting my own father.
"Is everyone here? Let's start!" General of the EMD, Lucaz Arizala said.
We all sat and face the big monitor, it displays the live video of the Salyut-5 2.0 space station rocket launching to the orbit of the moon.
"Well, as you can see and we all know that the Salyut-5 2.0 is ready to launch but we need one from the Earth Ministry of Defense to operate it. But the question is who? Who is capable? Anyone? Let's start with our second lieutenant."
"I must say experience is the best way to learn new things and be able to understand something, that's all General"
After we clap, a long silence happened.
"First lieutenant? Are you there?" I look at him and he's spacing out.
"First lieutenant Hellios Narag!" We are startle, because General Arizala never shout. "Why are you spacing out in the middle of an important matter?"
"I-i'm sorry General, well I'm not capable. I'm sorry General," well, we're expecting it.
"You never change Hellios, Major Juner Holgado?"
"General, I must say that I am the most capable here, I'm strong, I'm intelligent, I'm one of the best cadets-" I cut him off.
"But we don't need an arrogant cadet."
"Do you think we need a woman like you? You're arrogant too."
"I'm not arrogant, I'm just honest and true to myself."
"Stop now, Lieu-"
General Arizala was cut off by a warning signal.
"What's happening?!" General Hiro Arizala, said in the intercom.
"General Hiro, someone opened the deck and the rocket is launching in 5, 4, " Second Lieutenant Marie Reyes reported.
"What the hell! Who?" I asked, but we all just stand and watch the Salyut-5 2.0 launch in our face without knowing who is the operator.
No one dare to speak, we're all shock but all our attention shift to my phone when it start ringing.
Zone?
"Isa-"
I cut him off.
"Where the hell are you? Are you ditching the meeting or what? The S5 was robbed and now you're nowhere to be seen?" I freak out. What if-
"Isa, let's break up." I was stunned for a moment, not expecting him to say it.
"W-what d-do you mean. You want a break up? Why? Did I do something wrong?... Please say something!" I was in a verge of crying when I heard his reason.
"I'm the one who rob the S5. So let's break up. Goodbye Babe!"
"W-what? What do you mean?"
*toot toot*
"Hello? hello? Zone?!"
"What happened Lieutenant? Is that Zone? Why he isn't here?" Brigadier General Liz Ravel asked but I wasn't able to answer.
I was still taken aback by his words. Zone has been a great boyfriend to me, he always treat me like a queen, buy me gifts and even tell the moon and sun that he really loves me. But why? Why did you have to do this? You traitor.
I remember what Doctor Miya Ataashi said when she was betray by her own bestfriend in order to snatch his boyfriend.
'Some people tend to do what they like to do in order to gain some information then betray you and hide'
Now I understand the humiliation she felt by being betrayed by our love ones. It f*cking hurts. Damn it!
I should've never talk to someone like him, who acts like a pristine and virtuous man then stab you in your back.
"Lieutenant Colonel Isaac Clavian? What happened?" General Hiro Arizala asked.
I balled my hands into a fist then slam it into the table, at the same time my tears flow endlessly.
"No! No! Nooo! It can't be happening! It must be a dream, I have to wake up."
I slap my face as hard as I can but nothing happened. I fell on my knees not minding the officials staring at me.
Ohh! I just remember I'm a Lieutenant Colonel, I must face this even I look like a crap. I stand, wipes my tears away and face the other officials.
"I-i'm sorry, I lowered my guard. The one who rob the S5 2.0 is Captain Zone Lincoln my boyfriend, actually my ex- boyfriend he just broke up with me awhile ago, so in short he's the traitor, General."
