Posted by Lieutenant Commander Preston Longstreet (Chief of Security) in Apollonia and Longstreet
Apollonia had debated on telling Longstreet about the intel agent. She was balancing her usual tendecy to look for profitable angles for her and her want to inform the man she most likely loved about his safety. For most this would be an easy decision. However for her that was a different thing. Call it genetic, environmental or other influences but her make up was about survival and advantage. Longstreet was savvy and smart but he was SF and that came with retrictions and codes etc…

She believed she might be able to accomplish both of her goals. She decided to spy on the spy because spys generally followed vice and money to get what they want and one she could manipulate and the other she wanted. She had already been making contact with low level crime dealers in the colony. Giving them a little money here and there just waiting for something for them to do. Well following this guy in a passive mode would be it. Where ever he went it would eventually get back to her.

At that moment Longstreet walked into the apartment she was sharing with him now.

“Hello Dear. Dinner.” She said with a beautiful intoxicating smile. She obviously meant replicator food. She had no idea how to cook old style.

Longstreet shook his head yes. He had an idea she was up to something.

Apollonia and Longstreet

“Can I ask you something and you not go into detective mode?” She said smiling.

“Probably not but go ahead.” He replied.

“Do you have someone new here in Intel. I don’t need to know a name. Just a yes or a no.” She asked still a few feet away.

Longstreet knew her about as well as anyone could. He felt she was off put asking this question.

“You know I can’t answer that. Plus Intel types are not my kind of people.” He answered.

“Got it. Thanks.” She said and came near him. “Lets relax.”

He had probably intended it but he had answered the question. Yes there was someone new and Longstreet did not care for him.
