"Negative. Though my psychological training is dissimilar to that of Commander Wallace, it was the way he spoke which alarmed me. He said he was on a mission, but we were not in danger. When I enquired to the nature of his reasoning, he quickly avoided the subject - calling me suspicious." He swung his hands behind his back once more.
