"Aproaching the planet now, captain. ETA to dropship launch....forty minutes." The voice called over the comm; male, brusk and professional. Just the way Gail Revas liked it in her crew. The Dark Athena was closing in now, like a predator inching towards its victim in the inky blackness of space. Gail had to smile at the irony as she eyed the planet from the bridge control room. The Athena starting her hunt on Olympus, the birthplace of her namesake. Poetic almost.
"Good. I want Alpha, Beta and Charlie teams ready to move as soon as they touch down. Our client's promising us plenty for these little fuckers' heads on a silver platter. You know how much I hate to disapoint a client. And on second thought, I want three drones down there, too. One per squad. No sense taking chances." She spoke calmly, cooly, the way she spoke when she wanted to make it very clear just how important a matter was. There was a short pause, but soon the bridge officer gave her an acknowledgement of the order. He knew his job, and that was to follow orders, plain and simple.
If her contact on Olympus was to be believed, then the Keyblade wielders were already on the surface, down in the Underworld. A minor complication, but nothing that could be worked around. There was always more than one way to skin a cat. It was time to pay Phil a visit....
