OFF: This thread continue's from the "Awards Ceremony" thread.

Satian turned to Veska. “Are you with us or not? Since your ship is not yet here, you can either take refuge on Crazy Horse, or come with us. Which will it be?”

Veska: ?

“It’s settled then.” Starfire said, then glanced around. The first thing they needed to do was locate K’Hare. “Well, one things for sure, we wont be able to use internal sensors. Anyone with half a brain would have restricted access to those.”

qul'yIt thought on this, and then remembered something. He walked back into the Hall of Honor for a moment, stopping at the door where the guard turned. Before he finished though, qul'yIt slammed a fist into the man's face knocking him out before grabbing the ear phone. He brought it back. "We may be able to find something using these." He threw them to Starfire.

Starfire raised a brow. “Well, good way to stay low profile.” She stuck the earpiece in her ear and listened for a moment. “It seems that some unfortunate security guards have run into K’Hare and his group.” She relayed the location to the group.

Satian turned to the other two. “Starfire take Veska and head there by the most direct means you can find, I’ll take qul'yIt and see if it is quicker to go through the maintenance hatches. Starfire keep your Comm on the Sp/ops channel to prevent us being over heard.”

“Yes sir” she said. She was already hatching a plan.

“And miss out on the adventure? There are no more fights to watch here, and who else would be willing to put up with a Qel,” Veska replied. “I will assist where I can, and how better to do that at the moment than with you. There has to be more to this than the security told us.”

As qul’yIt commandeered a security ear piece, Veska cringed a little. She seemed to have a knack for picking unsual company. She wondered what Kral and Kal’Dar would think about her action to go on this little ‘mission’ when she didn’t know what she was getting herself into. But how else was she going to find out what was going on?

“I am ready,” Veska said with a nod to Starfire. Previous to Satians last fight, she hadn’t seen much of the woman since the qualifiers, and was pleased that she was healed from her injuries. No doubt her past had helped in that regard.

In truth, Starfire was still not feeling completely herself. She still was not sure what was wrong, but the excitement of their current situation had put some color back into her cheeks. She was able to forget her other problems for the time being.

"We'll take the turbo lifts." She stated, as her and Veska split from Satian and qul’yIt. "They'll likely be locked down, but I don't think that'll hinder us." She held up her right hand, showing the Borg technology that was still visible. She gave Veska a small, humorless grin "there are perks to being and ex-drone. There's aren't many systems I can't access." As they made their way, Starfire wondered if the other woman was uncomfortable at all. After all, they didn't even know each other. But there wasn't much to be done about it now.

"I will take your word for it on the 'exdrone' part. I think I will pass on the experience," Veska answered hoping it wasn't inappropriate. She had not been close to many that been former borg drones.

"Not sure which of my lives this would fit into," Veska mused outloud as she followed Starfire. "Starfleet Marine Medic, Cleric healer, Klingon Ambassadors Aid, Klingon Qel or a whole new one. One would think that I haven't known what to do with my life, but I go where I am needed or will be of the best use. Though I think this current course of action will potentially have less consequences for me than it will for you," Veska commented as her ties with the Federation had been cut some time ago."

Starfire couldn't help a genuine laugh at that one "remind me to regale you with stories of Satian and I's previous exploits when this is all over. There's very little I fear when it comes to Starfleet." They found a turbo lift and sure enough, Starfire had to use her unique talents to open it up.

They stepped in and Starfire requested the appropriate floor. Once it started moving she turned to the other woman. "I doubt anyone who might be willing to stop us would expect an attack from a turbo lift. It's a little too direct. However, your presence will likely go over better than mine, being that you are a medical officer and I am still a drone among Klingons. I'll stay out of sight when we stop. If you act as if you are meant to be here, to assist any injured officers, you'll be able to keep them distracted long enough for me to make my move." With that, she spun her scimitars into her hands and pressed herself against the wall. “Don’t worry,” she added after a moment “I don’t expect you to stand idly by while I have all the fun. Just enough to give me a jump on them.”

qul'yIt and Satian then left threw the Maintenence hatches. Though of good height, he was leaner than Satian and moved fairly well in the tubes. They hadn't made it that far before the first sign of trouble came up. Of course qul'yIt was not aware that he was being tracked by his comm which indicated him as a member of K'Hare's group...

"Understood," Veska replied. "That I am at least part Klingon, they may think twice, but my charming personality will win them over," she said sarcastically. She returned her bat'leth to her carrying harness and pulled a few things out of her shoulder sac to give the proper medical cover. Hopefully whatever was going on, things would get straightened out before too many people were injured...or worse.

The doors opened and Veska, not giving the indication that anything should be amiss behind her, exited the lift. She barely stepped two feet out the doors and she heard what they had expected... "HALT!"

Veska put her hands in plain sight. In one she held her medical clerance, and the other Klingon medical scanner. "I am just checking for injured officers or other personnel that may need it."

The officers seemed sckeptical, but seemed to be convinced, as Veska moved to go behind them, one of them noticed whatelse she had besides medical supplies. "And what does a doc have for a bat'leth?" one asked suspiciously as the turned to look at Veska more closely....

She used the hilt of her right scimitar to knock the first one unconcious.

The remaining security officer didn’t know what to think. First a Klingon doctor looking for patients… but carrying a bat’leth, then the next thing he knows his partner is down for the count… a second member of this little deception.

The guard tapped his comm. badge quickly “Security, need back up to the Ambassadorial deck, near the main turbolifts, ASAP. I got a Klingon doc and a human…armed…” *Thunk* he sunk to the ground. He had made the mistake of turning to look at Starfire just a little too long.

“Guess he didn’t look at us too closely,” Veska said with a shrug as she brought her bat’leth back down to her side, its sharp edges still covered by the guards built in to her carrier. “He called for back up so there has to be at least two more on this deck if not more. If not they will be soon… and they are going to come in swinging,” she added.

Sure enough, they could hear shouts come from down the corridor. “Put your blades back behind you and get your hands out in front of you,” Veska said quickly, having an idea. Veska could tell Starfire was a little confused, but when Veska reached down to grab phasers from their ‘friends’ Veska imagined she would get the idea.

Veska had just gotten the phaser aimed when the other two sounded like they were with in gun shot. “She took them out before I could stop her, but I am glad you two showed up,” Veska called out loudly looking over her shoulder, but then quickly looked back at Starfire as if she was concerned she was really going to attack her.

“Are there any more?” the first to speak of the new pair asked.

“At least one,” Veska replied honestly, her face turned from them, but Starfire would see the smirk. Veska then turned quickly and stunned the officer closest to her.

Starfire was further away from the two officers than she would have liked, but as she saw Veska neatly take out the one, she decided she liked the extra challenge. "You're no fun." Starfire smirked, referring to Veska's use of the phaser. She leapt forward, the blades suddenly appearing as if from thin air. The other officer appeared stunned, but it didn't last for long. He was swift with his phaser, bringing it up to fire at Starfire. However, in his haste, he aimed poorly and Starfire simply had to side step the blast. Her second step brought her within arms reach of him and she brought her blade around, knocking the phaser from his grasp, missing his hand my a mere hairs breadth. She could have killed him right there, she certainly was in the mood for it now, but she needed information.

The officer had backed himself against the wall and Starfire held her blades in the ready. "Keep your hands at your sides. Make a move, you lose a limb. Now, tell me who's been giving you your orders."

The man didn’t even attempt to lie “Vice Admiral Jefferson.”

Starfire glanced at Veska “Do you know him at all?”

"Can't say that I do, though isn't he the lucky guy in charge of this base?" Veska replied then looked down at the phaser.

She put a purposeful pout on her face, "No fun? This is the first chance I have had to use one of these in years!" Veska laughed, and acted as if she didn't entirely know what she was doing with it, making the remaining security officer VERY nervous.

Starfire was starting to really like her partner. Her face betrayed non of that though as she turned back to the officer. "Where can I find him?"

The officer glanced around nervously, as if looking for someone else to help him. He was very unwilling to meet her gaze. "Um... I... I... I'm not sure. We haven't heard from him in some time."

Starfire was growing impatient "Alright, let me re-phrase the question. What is the last location you knew him to be at?"

The officer suddenly seemed unwilling to talk.

Starfire sighed, they were running out of time. "Well, Veska... I do believe he needs some prompting." With that, she sheathed one of her blades and back handed him across the right cheek bone. She heard the satisfying crunch of bone and the officer cried out in pain. Before he could collapse though, she grabbed him by the throat and pinned him to the wall. "Where." She hissed.

The man made a garbled sound and Starfire loosened her grip just enough to allow him to breath. "Down the hall, to the right.... fourth door on your left." He managed to gasp. Starfire smiled at the man, but it was not a pleasant sight. "Thank you." With that, she used the Vulcan nerve pinch on him and turned to Veska.

"We'd better get a move on. We don't want Satian and qul'yIt beating us to the punch."

They came around a corner to a hatch and suddenly found themselves faced with a pair of guards. They both had their phasers out but seemed startled as a man on fire came flying at them..

in the instant of hesitation Satian charged into the 2 guards, as if they had been working together for yrs Satian Spin his blade to the left well qul'yIt spun his to the left disarming both guard. before the phasers hit the floor both blades reversed in well practiced fashion so the handles rendered that guards as useless as the phasers on the floor

qul'yIt snarled and spat on the fallen guards as he grabbed their earpieces and threw one to Satian.

Satian cough the earpiece and in one motion put it in just in time to hear of a report of a downed guard 1 deck up and an attack by 5 persons on the command deck. there was also a report of a target they were tracking on the deck they were on. " get rid of your comm badge, mine cant be traced in the mode its in but yours can

qul'yIt growled and pulled his off, running back just long enough to put it on one of the unconscious guards before returning. "Let's go!"

continuing to move up to the next level they entered the small room that lead to the hallway just as the door opened to admit 1 ex drone and a Klingon rushing in with their blades at the ready fully prepared to attack the first things they saw, qul'yIt and Satian being the only things in the small space this was not looking good

qul'yIt snapped off something that sounded like a cross between a hiss and click as he raised his blade up in defense. Few would know it, but he had just cursed some vulgar in a rarely heard language.

Starfire was in full battle mod now, so when the door opened and she came face to face with qul'yIt and Satian, it took her a moment to register what had happened.

"What?!" She yelled, furious that the little pip squeek security guard had managed to pull a fast one. "That little... I'm gonna tear him limb from limb... and when I'm done with that..." the rest, which would have made the foulest-mouthed Klingon blush, trailed off as she spun around and made as if to go back the way she came.

"We don't have time." Satian said, grabbing her arm to stop her.

Starfire wrenched her arm free, but she was angry with herself, not him "I can't believe it... ugh!" She managed to regain some control of herself "and I was being nice by letting him live! I... I even said thank you!"

Satian:

Veska:

qul'yIt:

OFF: Yeah... she's a little ticked. Lead on, someone.

USS Crazyhorse

OOC Yip I want in on the action , I am not sure if this takes place before or after the bombs go off that rip out Ops

ON

It did not take long for Tucker to have the Crazyhorse ready for a quick take off, He had a duty to fulfill now that the ship was ready , whoever sat in the big chair on the bridge just had to give the work and the Crazyhorse would pull out
Tucker walks to the shuttle bay and slips into the Privateer and activates her spc ops mode, the ship cloaks and slips out of the Crazyhorse shuttle bay leaving a holographic copy of herelf in the bay, No one even knew that she had left, No transponders, Just a spec ops locater

While Tucker was in engineering he picked up chatter on the spec ops channel , The micro ear buds he wore were paying off, Now it was time to act as a back up platform and if the team on the station needed it Tucker could beam them out , He had a boosted transporter that worked on a rotating frequency and could beam through his cloaking device

If there was trouble he knew Satian would signal, Tucker would extract them and get them to Crazyhorse , For now it was sit and listen , By now Satian would have recieved the encoded signal that Privateer was ready if they needed her

Tag Satian, Starfire and thos working with them
