Mission Prologue:  

Last time on the Qa'rol …

The two Cardassians taken from the shipyards, Mekor and Broka, were found to be impersonating Ligate Timar's sons who were killed in a shuttle accident when they were bound for the shipyards.  The imposters were believed to have ties with the Obsidian Order.

XO Mo'rak was also confronted by the Captain about why his DNA was found all over the tracking devices planted on the Qa'rol and tar.  Someone is trying to frame Mo'rak in a plot against the Captain, and it is believed that Gowron himself may be attempting to place spies on board Q'tor's ships.

The veS has rendezvoused with the Qa'rol, and her Captain will be meeting with Q'tor shortly.  In the meantime, two slaves stand before Q'tor; one of them covered in Klingon blood.  He claims it was an accident; he claims he was standing in the wrong place at the wrong time; in fact, he claims he didn't kill anyone.

But isn't that what they always say?

On the tar … 

Samantha says:
::Sees the incoming message from Toir, and wonders why he's sending her love notes.  Begins to read, and then turns around and nods to him letting him know she understands.::

Gorlin says: 
::Receives a message and nods to Toir.::

Samantha says:
::Pushes the delete button to erase the file, making sure there are no back doors to retrieve the message that was sent to her.::

Cmdr_Toir says:
FCO: Maintain course and try not to bump against the veS.

FCO William_Stradiot says:
::Grins and turns to Toir.:: Toir: You needn't worry about me, Sir.

Samantha says:
Toir:  The veS is still along side of us, Sir.  I have not detected anyone beaming over to the Qa'rol.  Thought you might want to know that.

Cmdr_Toir says:
Sam: Thank you.  Continue to monitor.  ::Grinning.::

FCO William_Stradiot says:
::Smiles over at Sam, giving her a knowing smile and a slight wink.::

Samantha says:
::Looks at William, wanting to speak with him, but not knowing who else is around that may overhear her.  Decides to wait.::

On the veS …

CO_Mo`BriHoD says:
FCO: Stay even with the Qa'rol.

CO_Mo`BriHoD says:
::The veS is maintaining a parallel course to the Qa'rol.::

On the Qa’rol in Captain’s Ready Room …

XO Cmdr Mo’rak says:
::Looking at Ben wondering about the blood.::

Ec`Tur`Am`Bar says:
::Standing at the door of the Ready Room, watching how the slaves act.::

Ben says:
::In the Ready Room of Q'tor, along with Talora and an angry looking mob.::

Host Q`torHoD says:
Ben/Talora: Explain 'cheeseburger and root beer'.

Talora says:
::Quietly standing next to Ben, her eyes lowered.::

Ben says:
Q'tor: It's a Terran food, Sir.

Ec`Tur`Am`Bar says:
Ben: Thought your kind only ate plants.

Ben says:
Q'tor: A sandwich made from ground cow flesh, and root beer is a tasty carbonated beverage.

XO Cmdr Mo’rak says:
Self: I prefer to eat my meat off the bone.  ::Making a disgusting face.::

Host Q`torHoD says:
Ben:  And how did you get the replicator to produce Terran food?

Ben says:
Q'tor: I didn't. I was able to teach it a few things, I thought it was okay because there seemed to be no restrictions placed on it, Sir.

Talora says:
::Still standing there, silent.::

Ben says:
Q'tor: Do you think someone on your crew made an error by not putting restrictions on it?

XO Cmdr Mo’rak says:
Ben:  Hold your tongue slave.

Host Q`torHoD says:
Ben:  Hmmph.  I can't have unrestricted replicators at the disposal of slaves.  And do not question the actions of my crew.

Ben says:
::Looking at floor and picturing his own dead corpse lying on it.::

Ben says:
Q'tor: Sorry, Sir.

Talora says:
Q'tor: Umm... Sir?  May I say something?

Host Q`torHoD says:
Talora:  What is it?

Ben says:
::Hopes Talora is careful in choosing her words.::

Talora says:
Q'tor: The first day we were here, the Klingon...um...I can't remember his name for the life of me...he hit Ben, that’s all I remember...ANYWAYS, he said that the replicator was only restricted to food. And medical/weaponry would immediately set off an alarm. He never said that food was an unrestricted access. I believed it to be a privilege, Sir.

Ben says: 
::Nods in agreement to Talora's statement then, continues making sure the floor don't go no place.::

Host Q`torHoD says:
Ben/Talora:  It is of no consequence.  When I first brought you aboard I told you if you did as you were told and caused no problems, you would be rewarded.

Talora says:
::Bows:: Q'tor: Thank you, Sir.

Ben says:
::Thinks him having a cheeseburger has ruined his chance of advancement.::

Ec`Tur`Am`Bar says:
Q'Tor: Eating Earth food, that's a bit of a punishment in itself.  So much plant in their diet, can't enjoy a bit of it.

Host Q`torHoD says:
Ben/Talora:  You performed your tasks at the shipyard very well.  As a reward I will allow you to program the replicator for Terran foods.  I will also let you have a few more responsibilities on board the ship.

Ben says:
::Doesn't look up but, smiles a little.::

Talora says:
::Smiles in response.::

Host Q`torHoD says:
Ben:  What sort of talent do you possess?

Ben says:
Q'tor: Well, Sir, I've had some experience in communications and ship operations, and I've helped my Mom before tending to injured folk.

XO Cmdr Mo’rak says:
CO:  If I may, Sir, I need a question answered.  Then I'll be on my way.

Host Q`torHoD says:
Mo'rak: Yes?

XO Cmdr Mo’rak says:
Ben: I don't care what you did, but I want to know who spilt this blood on you, or better yet who caused it.

Ben says:
Q'tor: Well, Sir, I can't say I seen anything.  I was cleaning the floor in engineering.  Alls I know is a dead Klingon fell down right in front of me on the floor and some of him musta gots on me by no fault of my own, Sir.

XO Cmdr Mo’rak says:
Ben: Who did it?  You are not in trouble.  Whoever did .. is.

On the Qa’rol in Sickbay …

CEO_Lt_K`EKtar says:
::Watching the doctor fix his wounds.::

Barak/Medic says:
CEO:  You are just about fixed up.  You know, I can give you a few more scars if you want more for your collection.  ::Grins at him.::  It's easy to do.

CEO_Lt_K`EKtar says:
Barak: Are you finished yet?  I have to report this to the Captain?

Barak/Medic says:
CEO:  I suppose those extra scars can wait then.  You can go, Sir.

CEO_Lt_K`EKtar says:
Barak: Never mind the extra ones.  There will be more soon enough.

CEO_Lt_K`EKtar says:
::Heads for the bridge.::

Barak/Medic says:
::Calls out to him.::  CEO:  Uh, Sir?  You might want to put these on.  ::Holds up his pants.::

CEO_Lt_K`EKtar says:
Out loud: Qu'Valth!!

CEO_Lt_K`EKtar says:
::Grabs his pants and hastily puts them on.::

Barak/Medic says:
CEO:  You want everyone to see what the Klingon stork brought?

CEO_Lt_K`EKtar says:
::Growls.:: Barak: Watch your words, Cardassian.

Barak/Medic says:
::Grins at him.:: CEO:  Just merely trying to point out the obvious, .. Sir.

CEO_Lt_K`EKtar says:
::Goes stomping towards the bridge.::

Barak/Medic says:
::Calls out.::  CEO:  May want to tuck in that shirt!

CEO_Lt_K`EKtar says:
::Tucks his shirt in his pants.::

CEO_Lt_K`EKtar says:
::Stops on the way to pick up a few pieces of clean clothing for the slaves being as they were stained from his blood and that of the p'taks as well.::

On the bridge of the Qa’rol and veS…

veS CO_Mo`BriHoD says: 
$COM: Qa'rol: This is veS, Captain Mo'BriHoD.  Where is Captain Q'tor?

Qa’rol CEO_Lt_K`EKtar says:
::Makes it to the bridge with the clothing and goes looking for the Captain and the slaves.::

Qa’rol OPS Keth, House of Toragh says:
COM: veS CO Mo'BriHoD:  This is Keth.  Captain is in a meeting with some slaves.  He asked to not be disturbed unless it is very important.

Qa’rol OPS Keth, House of Toragh says:
CEO:  He's in there. ::Points to the Ready Room.::

veS CO_Mo`BriHoD says:
$COM: Qa'rol: This is veS.  Tell Captain Q'tor that when he is ready, I will meet with him.

Qa’rol OPS Keth, House of Toragh says:
COM: veS CO Mo'BriHoD:  Will do, Captain Mo'Bri.  I'll let him know the minute he comes out.

veS CO_Mo`BriHoD says:
$::Cuts the com.::

veS CO_Mo`BriHoD says:
$FCO: Maintain heading.

On the Qa’rol in Captain’s Ready Room …

Ben says:
Q'tor: Well, Sir, there were only two Klingons in the area. They was yellin' at each other. One died and the other was Sla...umm... the boss engineer.

Ben says:
::Doesn't have a problem ratting on a Klingon.::

Talora says:
::Softly pipes up:: Mo'rak: The Chief Engineering Officer, Sir. I saw the whole thing. Twas a mess it was...

Ec`Tur`Am`Bar says:
Q'Tor: Want me to look into it?  Can't have people killing off your crew before we get to whatever it is we're going to do.

XO Cmdr Mo’rak says:
Ec:  I can handle this.

XO Cmdr Mo’rak says:
CO:  If I may?

Ec`Tur`Am`Bar says:
::Nods.::

Host Q`torHoD says:
Mo'rak: K'EKtar.  I'll look into it, Mo'rak.  Right now I want you to have the helm set a course for the Draylax system.

Ben says:
::Looks at the mean one, Mo'rak, to see if he's going for a weapon to kill him with.::

XO Cmdr Mo’rak says:
CO: Yes, Sir.  I'll inform the tar and veS also.  ::Turns and leaves the Ready Room.::

Host Q`torHoD says:
Ben:  You will be assigned to the Operations Officer.
Talora:  Skills?

Ben says:
::Glad he left.::

Ben says:
Q'tor: Thank you, Sir. Most generous.

On the Qa’rol on the bridge …

CEO_Lt_K`EKtar says:
*CO*: Permission to enter, my Lord?

XO Cmdr Mo’rak says:
FCO:  Set course for the Draylax system.      
OPS:  Inform the tar and the veS of the change.

FCO says: 
XO: Aye, Sir.  Changing course.

On the Qa’rol back in Captain’s Ready Room …

Host Q`torHoD says:
::See's the Chief Engineering Officer standing outside as Mo'rak leaves.:: CEO: Come in, K'EKtar.

Talora says:
::Raises her head.:: Q'tor: Leadership. Combat. Organization. Almost anything one would need.

Ben says:
::Thinks - great, finally, I'm in business, just where I wanted to be.::

CEO_Lt_K`EKtar says:
::Nods.:: Q'tor: My Lord, I apologize for my lateness.  I have brought fresh clothes for the slaves.

ACTION:  A D'deridex class warship has changed course and has plotted an intercept course for the Qa'rol, tar, and veS.

Host Q`torHoD says:
::Raises an eyebrow.:: Talora:  Leadership is it? Is it my job you want?

Ben says:
::Looks at Talora hoping she won’t tell him yes.::

Talora says:
::Smiles brightly.:: Q'tor: Not at all, Sir.

Ec`Tur`Am`Bar says:
Talora:  What does a slave know of combat?

Host Q`torHoD says:
::Smiling.::  Ec:  Feisty, isn't she?

CEO_Lt_K`EKtar says:
::Hands the clothes to Talora and Ben.::

Host Q`torHoD says:
Talora:  Very well.  You are assigned to Ec here.

Ben says:
::Takes the new clean, blood free outfit from Slappy.::

Talora says:
::Looks at the Captain.:: Q'tor: It’s not a threat, Sir.  The ship isn't here to cause harm.

CEO_Lt_K`EKtar says:
::Hears the news.::

CEO_Lt_K`EKtar says:
Q'tor:  My Lord, we need to speak alone.

Ben says:
::Slips out of the old one, and into the new.::

Talora says:
::Smiles to Ec.::  Ec:  I'm sure you'll see soon enough.  Don't worry.  I like you too much ta hurt cha.

Ec`Tur`Am`Bar says:
Talora: That's not what I asked.  

Ben says:
::Balls up the messy one and holds it behind his back.::

On the bridge of the tar …

Samantha says:
Toir:  Whoa!  D'deridex warship headed our way.

Cmdr_Toir says:
::Stands up.::  Sam: What?     
FCO:  How long till intercept?

Samantha says:
::Checks.::  Toir:  ETA .. 15 minutes, Sir.

Cmdr_Toir says:
Sam: Contact the Qa'rol and ask for an advice.

FCO William_Stradiot says:
::Stands up quickly, almost falling down.:: Self: Oh dear...

Samantha says:
Toir:  Aye, Sir.  
COM: Qa'rol: This is the tar.  There is an incoming D'deridex class vessel on approach.  You expecting company?

On the bridge of the veS …

Tactical says: 
Mo’BriHoD:  My Lord, we have a D'deridex ship headed our way.

FCO says:
CO_Mo’BriHoD: Captain, the ships have been given new coordinates. Shall I follow?

CO_Mo`BriHoD says:
FCO: Make the necessary adjustments.

CO_Mo`BriHoD says: 
TAC:  Watch that D'deridex.  I don't like the look of this.

CO_Mo`BriHoD says:
TAC: Get a scan of that warbird when in range.  I want to know its intentions.  Raise shields and weapons to standby.

CO_Mo`BriHoD says:
COM: tar:  This is veS, Captain Mo'BriHoD.  No, I am not expecting any company.  I have shields up and weapons on standby.

On the Qa’rol … 

Tactical says: 
Mo'rak: Romulan vessel, D'deridex class, approaching.

XO Cmdr Mo’rak says:
Tac:  Shields up!  Inform the others to do the same.   
*CO*:  You are needed on the bridge, Sir.

Host Q`torHoD says:
ALL: I'm afraid the rest will have to wait.  ::Gets up and heads to the bridge.::

Host Q`torHoD says:
::Once on the bridge.::  XO:  Report.

XO Cmdr Mo’rak says:
CO:  Sir, we have an inbound D'deridex class vessel.

Ec`Tur`Am`Bar says:
::Steps back onto the Bridge, standing near the Tactical Console.::

Host Q`torHoD says:
Mo'rak:  romuluSgnan?  Battle stations!

CEO_Lt_K`EKtar says:
::Heads out onto the bridge and to his station for engineering.::

Ben says:
Talora:  I don't know where to go.::

XO Cmdr Mo’rak says:
ALL:  Battle stations!

Ec`Tur`Am`Bar says:
Talora: What kind of combat experience do you claim to have?  Terran military hasn't existed in dozens of years.  Openly.

Ec`Tur`Am`Bar says:
CO: I think we need an answer to my question.  Although knowing how it knows the incoming isn't a threat is a good question as well.

Ben says:
Talora: They all left the Ready Room.  We could just hide out a while.

Talora says:
Ben: Stay with me. You'll be fine. Nothing is going to go wrong here. They'll be hailing within a few minutes.

On the Bridge of the tar and veS … 

tar Cmdr_Toir says:
@Gorlin:  Raise shields, weapons to standby.

tar Cmdr_Toir says:
@Sam/OPS:  Alert the veS and tar to ready battle formations.

veS CO_Mo`BriHoD says:
$COM: Qa'rol: Capt Q'tor, I am not expecting any company.  We are at full battle alert status.  Your orders?

tar Cmdr_Toir says:
@COM: veS:  I am ready, good hunting.

tar OPS Krell, House of Vok says:  
@Toir:  Yes, Sir!  
@COM: Qa'rol and veS:  Going into battle formation per Commander Toir.

On the Bridge of the Qa’rol …

Host Q`torHoD says:
::Glares at Talora.::  Talora: How can you possibly know that that ship is not a threat?

Host Q`torHoD says:
Mo'rak: Standby all weapons!

Talora says:
::Shrugs.:: Q'tor: It’s my ship.

Ben says:
::Looks down at his new threads.:: Talora: I guess I can’t be surprised all their clothes are big on me.::

XO Cmdr Mo’rak says:
Tac:  Ready all weapons to fire on the Captain's orders.

ACTION:  The D'deridex hails the Qa'rol.

Tactical says:
Mo'rak:  Aye, ready on weapons.

Host Q`torHoD says:
::Clearly shocked.::  XO: All ships hold!

Host Q`torHoD says:
Talora:  Your ship?

Ben says:
::Looks at Talora a little stunned, she's asking for it.::

OPS Keth, House of Toragh says:
CO:  Sir, the D'deridex is hailing us.

Talora says:
::Smiles.:: Q'tor: Surprise.

Host Q`torHoD says:
OPS:  On screen.

OPS Keth, House of Toragh says:
::Places the comm onscreen.::  CO:  On screen, Sir.

Ec`Tur`Am`Bar says:
Talora:  If you own a ship of that caliber, how is it you are now a slave?

Ben says:
::Stays close to Talora.::

On the Bridge of the tar … 

Cmdr_Toir says:
Sam:  What’s the status of the vessel?

Samantha says:
Toir:  They are hailing the Qa'rol, Sir.

Cmdr_Toir says:
Sam:  Put it on speaker and listen in.  I want to hear this.

Cmdr_Toir says:
FCO:  Maintain battle formation and prepare for evasive.

Samantha says:
::Nods to him, and places it on speaker.::  Toir:  Do you think Captain Q'tor will mind?

Cmdr_Toir says:
Sam: I don't care if he knows.  Just do it.

Samantha says:
::Nods to him.::  Toir:  You are on.

FCO says: 
Toir: Aye, Sir.

On the Bridge of the Qa’rol and D’deridex …

Qa’rol Host Q`torHoD says:
COM: D'deridex:  romuluSgnan By what right do you dare enter Alliance space?

D’deridex CO_Grenthar says: 
%COM: Qa'rol: Greetings Captain to you too. I believe you have our Captain over on your ship. A woman by the name of Talora Stradiot. Do you recognize that name? Also, to the tar listening in, I would like to reclaim Samantha and William Stradiot also. We've come to offer our services.

Qa’rol Talora says:
::Can't hold it in anymore.:: Q'tor: I told ya so.

Qa’rol Ben says:
::Looks over to Talora, kinda sad.::

Qa’rol Host Q`torHoD says:
::Clearly stunned.::

Qa’rol Ec`Tur`Am`Bar says:
Q'Tor:  Is it too late for you to ask for a refund?  ::Reaches for blade, still uncertain of what's going on.::

Qa’rol Ben says:
::Sad because it looks like he is about to loose a potential new friend and be all alone here.::

Qa’rol XO Cmdr Mo’rak says:
Self:  What the heck is this?

Qa’rol Host Q`torHoD says:
::Signals to cut audio.::  Talora:  You are in league with the romuluSgnan?

Qa’rol OPS Keth, House of Toragh says:
::Cuts the audio.::

On the Bridge of the tar and veS … 

tar Cmdr_Toir says:
@::Not liking at all what he is hearing.::

tar Samantha says:
@Toir:  They know we're listening, Sir.  I wish to remain here on the tar.

tar FCO William_Stradiot says:
@::Literally falls to the floor.::

tar Cmdr_Toir says:
@Sam:  Do not worry.  You are not going anywhere, and that’s the same for you too, William.

veS CO_Mo`BriHoD says:
$TAC: Hold your weapons.

On the Bridge of the Qa’rol …

XO Cmdr Mo’rak says:
CO:  Shall we blow them out of space, Sir?

Ec`Tur`Am`Bar says:
Q'Tor: I think we still outgun them.  If their offer isn't good, we can take care of it.

Talora says:
::Shakes head.:: Q'tor: Listen carefully. We are not Romulans. This is an "Acquired" ship. Perhaps you've heard of a Terran legend group called the "Brotherhood"?

CEO_Lt_K`EKtar says:
::Turns around.::  Talora: What did you do when you disappeared from me?

Host Q`torHoD says:
Talora:  You are the one responsible for the secret transmission!  For the tracking devices!

Ben says:
::Sees the Beetle go for a blade and positions himself in front of Talora.::

Host Q`torHoD says:
Talora:  I have heard of no such group!

Host Q`torHoD says:
XO: Standby all weapons.  No one fires until I give the order!

Ec`Tur`Am`Bar says:
Q'Tor: That means she's part of the rebellion.

Talora says:
::Blinks.:: Q'tor: Secret transmission?  I know of no such thing. Nor of any tracking devices.

XO Cmdr Mo’rak says:
::Pulls out his blade.:: CO: Then what about this one?

Ec`Tur`Am`Bar says:
Talora: You know nothing of the tracking devices?  Weren't you on the search for them?

CEO_Lt_K`EKtar says:
Q'Tor: Captain, I would believe her.  IF she was actually not with the Rebellion, that warbird out there would have fired already.

Talora says:
::Shakes head.::  Q'tor:  If I had known about the tracking devices, then I wouldn't have been sprayed with blue dye.

CEO_Lt_K`EKtar says:
Ec: Yes, she was with me and Ben on the search for them.

Ec`Tur`Am`Bar says:
CEO: Fired on a heavy cruiser with backup?  Not likely.

Ben says:
Talora: Quick tell them you didn't do nothin'.

Ben says:
Q'tor: I think they are just kidding.

CEO_Lt_K`EKtar says:
Ec: Still we would have been fired upon.  Romulans are devious and not to be trusted as they say but now I am not so sure.

Host Q`torHoD says:
::Quickly going over all of this in his head.::

Host Q`torHoD says:
Talora:  Did Harlan put you up to this?

Talora says:
CEO:  As I said, we're not of a Romulan group. Who the bloody hell is Harlan?

Ben says:
::Feels like he walked in on the middle of a story::

CEO_Lt_K`EKtar says:
Q'tor: And Captain all the blood letting was from the one that stopped and wanted in to the cargo bay, and he also in engineering tried to destroy this ship.  It is his blood and mine that were mixed.  You told me to get proof, I did.  ::Hands him the hilt of the knife that was used.::

Host Q`torHoD says:
Talora:  Assuming that you're telling the truth, what are your intentions?

Talora says:
Q'tor: The Brotherhood's current aim is to aid you, Captain.  And I've got quite a few ships at my disposal.

Ben says:
::Still holding the bloody cleaning outfit with which he nervously fidgets with as this plot twists.::

Ec`Tur`Am`Bar says:
Talora: You said your group is Terran. Why would they want to help the Alliance?

Host Q`torHoD says:
::Takes the knife hilt from the Chief Engineering Officer and thinks over this new information.::

Talora says:
::Smiles.:: Ec: Do you even know what the goal of this mission even is?

Ec`Tur`Am`Bar says:
Talora: I didn't ask you that.  Are you claiming Q'Tor has turned on...no, he's a Klingon.

Talora says:
::Shakes head.::  Ec:  Of course not.  He is a loyal member of the Alliance. I will not dispute the legend over here.

CEO_Lt_K`EKtar says:
Q'tor:  I was in engineering as they were cleaning, and I was observing this Klingon Engineering Officer doing his work, and he deliberately crossed wires for the engines to overload.  For his treachery he died.  He also was the one that stopped and asked for access to the cargo bay while you and Ec were in there talking to the slaves.

OPS Keth, House of Toragh says:
::Overhears the Chief Engineering Officer, and wonders if the Engineering Officer was a spy.::

Host Q`torHoD says:
::Signals Operations to re-establish audio.::

OPS Keth, House of Toragh says:
::Sees the Captain and re-establishes the comm.::  CO:  On speaker, Sir.

On the Bridge of the tar and veS … 

veS CO_Mo`BriHoD says:
$::Sitting on the bridge watching the ships, and patiently waits for what will be quite possibly the biggest battle in the history of the Alliance.::

tar Cmdr_Toir says:
@FCO William Stradiot: What is this all about?  You had better speak.

tar Samantha says:
@Toir:  I don't like this.  We don't know what is going on.  They cut the comm, Toir.

tar FCO William_Stradiot says:
@::Visibly pales.::

tar Cmdr_Toir says:
@::Gets up and grabs William.::  FCO: I asked you a question, and you better make it good.

tar Samantha says:
@Toir:  Sir, violence is not going to solve anything here.  Maybe we should wait and find out what their intentions are.

tar Samantha says:
@Toir:  No disrespect meant, of course.

tar Samantha says:
@Toir:  Would you like me to comm the Qa'rol, Sir?

tar Cmdr_Toir says:
@Sam: Do it.  I want to know what Q'tor is doing.

tar Samantha says:
@Toir:  They've just opened their comm again, Sir.  It should be on speaker.

tar Cmdr_Toir says:
@::Throws William back down and listens.::

On the Bridge of the Qa’rol, D’deridex, tar and veS …

Qa’rol Host Q`torHoD says:
COM: Grenthor:  Now that I have talked with your would be Captain, I want all ships’ Captains to meet in my ready room in 5 minutes.  That is NOT a request.

D’deridex CO_Grenthar says:
%COM: Q'tor: Of course, Captain. But as I have stated previously, you have our Captain over on your ship already.

Qa’rol Ec`Tur`Am`Bar says:
Talora: Then why do you want to help him?!

Qa’rol Host Q`torHoD says:
XO: Inform Toir and Mo'bri.  5 MINUTES!

tar Samantha says:
@::Looks at Toir.::  Toir:  I guess that means you too.

Qa’rol Ben says:
Talora: You're a Captain?  Frag! I guess I'm the only real slave. ::Thinks - I knew she was no slave.::

tar Cmdr_Toir says:
@Out Loud: Great, this changes everything.

veS CO_Mo`BriHoD says:
$XO Mo'tok: Take command.  I am going to transport to the Qa'rol.  Do not fire unless you hear from me, and I mean me only, or your hide will adorn my bed room wall.

tar Samantha says:
@Toir:  Don't worry, Toir.  I'll take care of the ship while you're gone.  ::Snickers under her breath.::

Qa’rol Talora says:
Ec: Reclaim Earth, my dear bodyguard.  Earth.  Gowren's take-down will come in time, I'm sure.

Qa’rol XO Cmdr Mo’rak says:
CO:  Yes, Sir.    
OPS:  Contact both veS and tar and have the Captains here in 5 minutes.

veS XO Mo’tok says: 
$CO Mo’BriHoD:  Yljaj, my Lord.

Qa’rol Host Q`torHoD says:
XO: Maintain a weapons lock on that ship.
Talora: Silence!

Qa’rol Ec`Tur`Am`Bar says:
::Steps closer to Q'Tor, not trusting any of this.::

Qa’rol Host Q`torHoD says:
Talora:  My ready room now!

Qa’rol CEO_Lt_K`EKtar says:
Q'Tor:  Captain, your orders?

Qa’rol Host Q`torHoD says:
CEO: Standby!

D’deridex CO_Grenthar says:
%XO: Take over for a few minutes. I've got to get our Captain back... ::Sighs heavily and leaves the bridge.::

Qa’rol Host Q`torHoD says: 
Ec:  You too!

tar Cmdr_Toir says:
@Gorlin:  You have the bridge.  You know what to do.

veS CO_Mo`BriHoD says:
$::Walks to the transporter room and is ready for transport.::

tar Samantha says:
@Toir:  You mean I'm not in charge?  ::Looks seriously at him.::

Qa’rol Talora says:
::Walks with a new dignity into the ready room to wait for the others.::

Qa’rol Ben says:
::Stays on bridge, not getting an invite to the Ready Room party.::

tar FCO William_Stradiot says:
@::Stands up.:: Toir: May I go with you, Sir? Talora....

tar Cmdr_Toir says:
@::Ignores Sam and goes to the transporter room.::

Qa’rol Ec`Tur`Am`Bar says:
Q'Tor: Of course.  You wouldn't go anywhere with that one alone.  ::Follows him in.::

tar Cmdr_Toir says:
@FCO Stradiot:  NO!

Qa’rol Ben says:
::Wishes he was in the smelly ol' Cargo Bay.::

Qa’rol CEO_Lt_K`EKtar says:
::Nods.::

tar Samantha says:
@::Looks at Gorlin.::  Gorlin:  I'll take that as a no.

tar Gorlin says:
@Sam:  Don't worry about him.  He gets angry pretty fast when things don't go his way.

ACTION:  The Captains of the veS, tar and D’deridex are beamed to the transporter room on the Qa'rol.

tar Samantha says:
@Gorlin:  Trust me .. I've got the bruises to prove that one.

On the Qa’rol in the Captain’s Ready Room …

Qa’rol Host Q`torHoD says:
::In the Ready Room.:: Talora: Before the others arrive... What do you know of my plans?

Qa’rol Talora says:
Q'tor: I am of the brotherhood. We have spies in every corner, and guess who's in charge of them too? ::Points to self.:: You've gotten yourself into something much more complex, Q'tor.

Qa’rol Host Q`torHoD says:
Talora:  Just answer my question.

Qa’rol Talora says:
::Smiles brightly.:: Q'tor: I just did. Now, one of my agents spoke of your plan in its making.

Qa’rol Host Q`torHoD says:
Talora:  Then Harlan is behind this.

Qa’rol Ec`Tur`Am`Bar says:
Q'Tor: What exactly are you into?

Qa’rol Talora says:
Q'tor: First off, I still don't know any Harlan. Second, the Brotherhood is acting of their own accord. They back the Rebellion, but are their own group.

Qa’rol Host Q`torHoD says:
Ec:  It would appear you are about to find out exactly what that is.

On the Qa’rol in the Transporter Room …

tar Cmdr_Toir says:
::Looks at Captain Mo'BriHoD.::   Ves CO: I don't like this at all.

veS CO_Mo`BriHoD says:
::Looks at him.:: Toir: You don't have to like anything.  Take me to your Captain.

D’deridex CO_Grenthar says:
::Walks silently up to Q'tor's Ready Room.::

tar Cmdr_Toir says:
VeS CO Mo’BriHoD:  My Captain!  I am here, just as you are.

veS CO_Mo`BriHoD says:
Toir: Yes, your Captain, as he is my Captain as well.  Now let’s get going.

tar Cmdr_Toir says:
::Making his way to Q'tor's ready room.::

On the Qa’rol on the Bridge …

Qa’rol OPS Keth, House of Toragh says:
Ben:  Slave, come here .. I understand you have been assigned to Operations.  Are you familiar with the console?

Qa’rol Ben says:
OPS_Keth: Umm, yes, Sir.  Well, mostly ::Looking over console.:: I'm a quick learner.

Qa’rol Ben says:
::Klingon is not exactly his second language.::

Qa’rol OPS Keth, House of Toragh says:
Ben:  Have a seat, then.  I'll leave you alone to answer any comms that come in here.  ::Slaps him hard across the back and laughs.::

Qa’rol Ben says:
::Nearly falls over.:: Keth: Yes, Sir, and thank you.  ::Happily sits down and begins studying the console.::

Qa’rol XO Cmdr Mo’rak says:
::Sitting on the bridge wondering what the heck is going on.::

D’deridex CO_Grenthar says:
::Knocks on the door of the Ready Room.:: Q'tor: May I enter, Captain?

On the Qa’rol in the Captain’s Ready Room …

Qa’rol Host Q`torHoD says:
Grenthor:  Yes, yes.  All of you get in here.

D’deridex CO_Grenthar says:
::Walks in and gives a low bow to Talora.::

veS CO_Mo`BriHoD says:
::Enters the Ready Room.:: Q'tor: It is an honor, my Lord.

Qa’rol Talora says:
::Waves it off.:: Grenthor: Knock it off.
