Note: I give full credit for the format of the story to Mainevent. I liked his Terminal Danger fic so much that I modeled this prologue on it. I'm sorry if this offends anyone but I couldn't come up with a better idea.

      My condolences Doctor, for the loss of your retrieval team. However, I must say, I'm disappointed in the matter of not even one of them returning. They were well trained and not exactly the type to fall before a few Covenant fly by's. No matter, I sent you and all the others involved in this… program if that's what you call it… a copy of the files you requested. They should arrive shortly.

       Ha, shows what he knows. And you said the Colonel let his entire cabinet in on what he was up to. That assistant of his is as dull and dimwitted as a grunt with a hangover. Asimov himself though, he's not the smartest at covering up his tracks. He left a faint data trail when he accessed those files but it is a data trail never the less. And, since he tried to cover up but didn't do a very good job it shows he has something to hide. One of the senior officers over at Outer Ring might have gotten a hint at what we plan to do. We can't silence Asimov but we can drop one of his closer allies, give him a warning. And we may have to deal with the one who found the trail.
