*Kine*
I sighed as I stared at the television. The news showed parts of Taisho city in ruins. My sister's base had gotten destroyed along with two other locales, one being a hospital.
Kisara called me last night to brief me of what happened. It appeared that she would need to keep Saffron's squad around a little longer. Although, given the situation, I had doubts about the 'little' part.
I ran a hand through my hair and closed my eyes.
"Are you okay, sir?" asked the voice of a female officer.
I looked up to see a female soldier, who was slightly shorter than me, standing beside my desk, holding a stack of papers.
I rubbed my forehead. "Just a bit tired, that's all."
"That's understandable." Chalotte smiled, putting down the papers on my desk.
I gave her a weary look. "I assume these are for me to sign."
She smiled sheepishly and nodded. "Indeed."
