Slazkith took a quick look at the [i]Challenger[/i], the ship that he had been assigned to before turning around and leaving the hanger. He couldn't help but smile, showing a set of very sharp teeth.

Although the idea of a holographic swimming pool was very tempting he figured it would be best to continue his reading for the next three hours.
