"Vale, are we almost there dear? I think I can hear the others cheering my arrival already." The Governor half moaned at Vale knowing that it would provoke a response from his Colonel. He found that sometimes over exaggerated actions or sugar coated orders were a good way to help lighten up his usually stressed officers, it was something he always thought himself good at. It didn't help that they were cutting it close to when he would like to have been there. His peers generally disliked waiting as much as he did and he respected them for that. "We will be arriving shortly.... [i]sir[/i]." The word stuck to Vale's tongue like poison. This sad sack of useless meat was perhaps the most offensive thing she had ever served under. Constantly she questioned how this garbage was actually promoted to his position, though she was generally reminded that her own investigation turned up favors being pulled. This usually gave her nothing but a disappointment in some of the moffs, she found that this was best stowed away as there was little she could change about the situation. Luckily, the ISB agent should be arriving soon enough. Even if they weren't here for Sarrus explicitly it would maybe atleast cause him to fear repercussions for his actions atleast once in his life. For that reason she thought it best to not allow him to get his meaty hands on Vale's only link to the rest of the Empire. While her withholding of such information could be seen as insubordination it was easy enough for her to claim ignorance in this case. After all, this wouldn't be the first time that the good governor had simply [i]forgot[/i] something she told him. The pilot signaled the Colonel that they were near landing and she quickly checked over her wrist pad to insure that all of her orders were checked off on before her arrival. As she made her way back to the hold and the ramp beginning to open she found Sarrus "flirting" with the two human girls that were doing his makeup. She hesitated to call it flirting considering that this was their job more or less. While she personally found the job repugnant she respected the two for having the willpower to get close enough to the mass of flesh to make him look acceptable to the people. He took his time standing up as the ramp finished opening and Vale took her place to the back-right of him. Her escort then did the same and flanked her on both sides while his guard lined up shoulder to shoulder with two in front of the Governor and two behind him. The group made their way off the shuttle and were greeted as per regulation by a mixture of her people and the Governor's personal guard. She was greeted by one of her several captains Keer Tucker. While he seemed to loath being lorded over by Vale simply because she was female she still found him useful. Useful enough in fact to give him command more or less over the forces protecting the palace. She then turned her gaze to the rest of the hanger at large. She was petrified for a moment when she saw a lone officer approaching the large group. It was very apparent from her uniform to the way she was holding herself who she was. While not expecting the ISB agent so soon she very quickly peeling off of the main troupe at the bottom of the ramp with her two Kuati stormtroopers. She gave Tucker a stern look as she began walking away to greet the officer and said "Stay with the governor, make sure he has what he needs. I will be watching." The governor heard this and displayed his elation as he was continuing on towards the hanger's exit into the palace. "Splendid! My boy I have much to show you. Have you ever been inside my palace? I assume someone like yourself will appreciate the culture it brings to this dreary place." the governor's long floppy arms around the two women who he had decided to bring into the palace aswell. Vale masked her disgust well as she saluted the approaching ISB officer. Both of her stormtroopers did the same holding their weapons to their sides. "Welcome to Boonta sir. I'm colonel Vale the commanding officer of Imperial forces on Boonta. Our good governor is running late to his engagement I was also in charge on constructing your facility. So if you wish to attend his [i]party[/i] you can, if not however I can show you to the facility and bring you up to speed on some of the finer details in it's construction." Vale had dealt with ISB officers before but it was usually not in an actual command position. While her initial reaction was fear she quickly overcame it with a feeling of relief at the idea that the Dewback of a man might be gone soon.
