As Ning and Parima were talking, they heard footsteps and turned around to see a large man with a beefy body walk in.
On his chest was the small badge that told the two that he was in fact a Lieutenant.
Ning and Parima immediately saluted the man who entered.
"At your seats, Cadet!"
As Ning and Parima sat down, two more people walked in behind the lieutenant, each one a Chief Officer.
The man arrived at the front and looked at both Ning and Parima. "Which one of you is the Connector?" the man asked.
"I am, Sir!" Parima spoke, standing up immediately.
The lieutenant nodded, and one of the Chief Officers behind him moved toward Parima, sitting down beside her.
"Then you must be the Converter," the man said, talking to Ning.
"Yes, Sir!" Ning answered.
The other Chief Officer went over to Ning and sat down beside him. Ning looked at the woman who sat beside him and saluted her as well.
