Amber walked into her chamber Jim trailing close behind her, “feeling better?” He inquired a worried look on his face.
“Yes Jim,” she sighed “I”m not a baby”
“No, but right now you need to take it easy” he replied
“Jim I am about to be crowned emperoress I can not afford to take it easy or relax we have a mess to clean up after this council bussiness is over with.” she sighed as she sunk into the plush chair at the desk.

Jim sighed also, his tall form sinking into a chair next to her “I know amber we opened a huge can of worms when we “removed” over half of the council, it’s left many questions about their dissappearances and unfortunately a lot of fingers are pointing at you,’
“We’ll answer those soon, after all they did commit treason toward the emperor and his family, trying to eliminate all of you and end the Joltaline line,” leaning close he whispered, “by the way I happen to like the Joltaline line.”

Amber smiled reaching over to caress Jim’s face and kissed him. Jim stood up and pulled a small black box from his pocket and began to scan the room. Amber looked at him questionably as he began to pull devices from lights behind furniture, in furniture behind, out of light switches even many lined in the carpet itself. “Ok so far so good” he said as an hour later he had pulled over 100 listening devices from the room. “”Now for the real exam”

Next Jim pulled an even smaller device that Amber did recognize switching it on he breathed out, “its clear enough now, I got the basic ones and a few of the advanced ones, this beauty can block and disable any left here its a sonic scrambler and em pulse generator tight beam of course, something like I used on the station.” Amber collapsed further into the seat breathing another sigh.
“Can it keep anyone listening in from outside with an electronic ear?”
“Yes, as I said it’s a scrambler” he said “I dont think we got everyone when we did the clearing house on the council members.”

“Well, now we need to plan more til I am crowned we can’t do too much, til then I’ll have to depend on you to be my protection well…… you and willow” this last whispered as she was still afraid that even with his advanced tech they might still be a way that others might hear. “I will do more than free her from all the charges that are against her”
“I’ll hold you to that” a young blonde man outside the door said, “I’d step in but I am afraid that his scrambler might screw up my holo imager his tech has always been that good, that’s why I had partnered with him back then.”
“Willow!” Amber squealed as she ran to hug her, “I didn’t think you’d be back!”

Willow stepped back not sure of quite what to do she wasn’t used to people wanting to be friendly with her but she figured what the hell as the princess threw her arms around her to hug.
“I had to come back I told you that I would complete the mission and I always keep my word.” she stated non chalantly.
Jim just rolled his eyes as Willow elbowed him in the ribs promting a grunt from him.
