Watson had been waiting for a message, and he was not dissapointed.
While monitoring the situation from the task force operations center, a
message indicator chimed on Watson's terminal. He had a message.
To: Mr. Watson
From: Selaan-nop, Special Assistant Foreign Ministry
You will be granted special permission to cross the border, as it seems you
have aleady done so. You will refrain from sending landing parties to the
surface of the planet Xendo. Doing so will constitute a most serious breach
of our security, and a serious diplomatic incident. A detachment of ships
will rendez vous with you hear or about the planet Xendo. You will wait with
them until the crusier Hyperos arrives. A diplomatic officer will be aboard to
resolve your breach of our soverign territory.
