David wasn't convinced he was done with Justinian yet, "Colonel due to the same issues you had with identifying me it might be useful if I could help identify some of the other mistaken prisoners you may currently have held.""We have that situation in hand, Captain," he replied curtly. "Your transport will leave in two hours. Until that time, I think it would be safest if you remained here. Good day, Captain." He turned and left, and the field went back up and immediately to black.

Two hours later, the doorway opened again, and a guard nodded to him. "Time to go," he said simply.

He was led down the same corridor he'd gone down the day before, but instead of going left afterward, they went right. It ended in a ground transportation bay, where he was ushered into a hovercar with blacked out windows; he noticed the doors were locked from the outside. The ride was short, and when he was let out, he was at a spaceport. The car was parked next to a small transport ship of local design, and, with yet still another guard watching, was escorted onboard. It was no luxury liner, but it was the way home, which had its own sweetness to it. The guards were finally gone, and he was free at last.
(Rsp)
The ship took off and soon the blackness of space surrounded them. As announced by the captain, the ride was going to take about five hours. Their destination was the nearest starbase, and David recognized it as the one Van Der Loo was in charge of.
