Keith nodded. "Well I guess we will find out shortly."

The elevator stopped at the highest level of the tower and the doors opened.

As Keith was standing by the door he was the first to get out. He walked through the large Council chamber and noted that oddly there was no entourage off in the corners. Usually other politicians participated in Council meetings, though I suppose that was a rare thing to happen when the meetings were with Spectres. Still it made him realize that this was indeed a very secretive assignment.

He walked up to the four Councilors at the end of the chamber and saluted them. "Councilors. Captain Keith Anderson reporting for assignment." "At ease soldier." Said the Human Councilor.

Keith knew him well. Ever since the Battle of Earth 25 years ago, the man had become the most prominent figure in the Alliance Military. "Yes, Councilor Hackett." He changed to a more casual stance. Keith was wearing his black and silver uniform, his usual casual wear.

Councilor Steven Hackett nodded. After the war with the Reapers he had been the highest ranking member of the Alliance Navy remaining, as the acting Fleet Admiral. He subsequently became the de-facto Prime Minister for the Systems Alliance as the entire high command had been killed during the destruction of Arcturus Station. When things began to calm and the UN was reconveened once more they reestablished the System Alliance Parlament and Hackett stepped down from his position as acting Prime Minister. Though the new Parlament soon voted for him to take up the empty Human Council position on the Citadel. He reluctantly agreed. Though he missed being out in space as Admiral of a Fleet, he was now a 77 year old man so he recognized that his time in the military was over.
