LORD SUMMERS’ SECRET MISSION part 2 BOSF
LORD SUMMERS’ SECRET MISSION part 2
🚨 Nornavio War Room
The war room buzzed with tactical chatter and glowing holo‑maps until Lord Summers stepped forward. His presence alone seemed to make the air stand straighter.
Lord Summers
Baron Staples, contact Lord Sark aboard the Silent Runner. I require a meeting. And a shuttle. I’ll return to the Barony afterward.
Wyatt blinked. Summers rarely requested anything. Usually things just… happened around him.
But Wyatt knew better than to ask why. Survival instincts were a powerful teacher.
He tapped into the internal network.
Wyatt
Lieutenant Galt, set up a meeting with the Silent Runner. Prep a shuttle. Leopold’s flying.
Moments later, Galt’s voice crackled through.
Lieutenant Galt
Meeting confirmed. Shuttle ready in fifteen minutes.
Wyatt turned.
Wyatt
Lord Summers, everything’s arranged. Shuttle’s being prepped now. Leopold will pilot.
Summers bowed respectfully to Princess Clara, then pivoted sharply and strode out of the war room like a man who already knew the next ten steps of the mission.
Wyatt watched him go.
Wyatt
Your Majesty… Summers is heading to the Silent Runner to talk to Lord Sark. I have no idea why.
Princess Clara folded her arms.
Princess Clara
I find no need to inquire. Lord Summers is highly capable. If he wants Sark, he has a reason.
Wyatt leaned toward Cynthia.
Wyatt
Who is Lord Summers? Even the Royal Marines got excited. They don’t get excited about anything. Not even payday.
Cynthia smirked.
Cynthia
He was head of the Royal Marines Academy. And my personal instructor.
She paused.
Cynthia
That’s all I can tell you. Anything more, and I’d have to kill you.
The three exchanged a nervous laugh — mostly because they weren’t sure she was joking.
🚀 Nornavio Shuttle Bay
The shuttle bay was a hive of activity — until Lord Summers walked in.
Everything stopped.
A loader drone froze mid‑lift. A tech paused with a wrench halfway raised. Even the ambient hum seemed to hold its breath.
Leopold jogged up, slightly out of breath.
Leopold
Lord Summers, Baron Staples assigned me to fly you to the Silent Runner and then back to the Barony.
A crew chief sprinted over.
Crew Chief
Sir! Shuttle NV‑02 is ready for immediate departure!
Leopold saluted, then gestured.
Leopold
Right this way, Lord. You can ride up front.
Summers nodded and boarded. The hatch hissed shut.
They strapped in.
Leopold
Nornavio Launch Command, shuttle NV‑02 requesting permission to depart. Destination: Silent Runner, then Barony of the Screaming Forest.
Lieutenant Galt
Permission granted. And check in with BOSF Ground Control on descent.
Leopold
Understood.
The shuttle blasted through the shield, engines flaring blue.
🛰️ Approach to the Silent Runner
Leopold
Silent Runner, this is NV‑02 requesting landing clearance. Lord Summers aboard for meeting with Lord Sark.
A giggly AI answered.
Amara (over comms)
NV‑02, permission to come aboard!
Summers and Leopold exchanged a look.
Summers
That… was different.
The shuttle slipped through the bay’s energy shield and touched down smoothly.
Summers stood.
Lord Summers
Wait here. I won’t be long.
He strode out of the shuttle like he owned the ship. His “final boss energy” hit the deck crew like a shockwave.
Lord Stark approached, bowing his head.
Lord Sark
Welcome aboard the Silent Runner. *, Lord Summers. How may I serve?
Lord Summers
A secure room. We need to talk.
Lord Sark
Of course. Follow me.
🔒 Private Conference Room
Summers didn’t sit. He stood like a man delivering orders to the universe.
Lord Summers
The Princess has assigned me to a special project. I understand you have high‑tech assembly drones. I need them sent to Bay One of the Orbital Shipyard.
Nikko’s eyes lit up.
Lord Sark
Ah. The special fighter project.
Summers nodded.
Lord Summers
I’ll replicate the parts at my base in the Barony, then transport them to the shipyard for final assembly.
Nikko leaned back.
Lord Sark
I can help. But I need a small favor.
Summers raised an eyebrow.
Lord Summers
Go on.
Lord Sark
I’m building a resort complex in the Barony. I want ten residents trained for security.
Summers actually smiled — which was somehow more intimidating.
Lord Summers
I can fold them into the training I’m already planning. Baron Staples wants an independent police force. Your guards will train alongside them. They’ll know each other. They’ll coordinate. Efficient.
Lord Sark
Then we have a deal. The drones will be dropped off before I leave orbit. Amara will upload programming instructions.
Stark escorted Summers back to the shuttle.
As NV‑02 lifted off, Amara’s hologram flickered into existence.
Amara
Lord Summers is scary. My sensors flagged him as extremely dangerous. More dangerous than your girlfriend.
She giggled.
Nikko sighed.
🌍 Descent to the Screaming Forest
Leopold
BOSF Ground Control, NV‑02 requesting landing pad access.
Ground Control
Permission granted — as long as you land within 45 minutes.
Leopold
Understood. Touchdown in twenty.
The shuttle plunged through atmosphere, plasma sheathing the hull. Leopold landed as gently as possible — because his life absolutely depended on it.
Summers disembarked, greeted by Sergeant Bauer.
Leopold wasted no time blasting off again.
Mid‑flight, he connected to Wyatt.
Leopold
Wyatt… what mission did you send me on? Lord Summers is terrifying. He barely spoke to me and I almost lost bladder discipline.
Wyatt burst out laughing.
Wyatt
Yeah, he’s scary. Jincho calls him “Scary Eyes.”
They both laughed.
🏛️ BOSF Town Hall
Summers and Sergeant Bauer entered. The soldiers at the front desk snapped to attention so fast one nearly pulled a muscle.
Lord Summers
Inform the Administrator and the Sergeant Major that I require them in the Administrator’s office immediately.
A guard grabbed the comm unit with the urgency of someone who did not want to disappoint Lord Summers.
Administrator (over comms)
Of course. Send them up immediately.
Summers strode into the office. Administrator Anio and the Sergeant Major were already standing at attention, waiting.
Summers placed the written orders — sealed by Princess Clara and Baron Staples — onto the desk.
To be continued…
