The guard fell with a small thud, and the smell of fried flesh filled the਍ഀ
cell.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
~Hmm, lovely~਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Not having enough time to reflect on the sight, David pulled the covert਍ഀ
phaser up and shot the second guard in the chest.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
The cell was open, the prisoners free.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
James grinned to himself and a feeling of relief filled his body,਍ഀ
਍ഀ
~ Well the plan worked. Hmm. Almost too easy.~਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Dave grinned widely at the rest of the bridge members.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Let's go!"਍ഀ
਍ഀ
John threw a weapon to David "Few more shots in that one"਍ഀ
਍ഀ
James pulled the pistol up to his shoulder, placing the weapon's safety to਍ഀ
off.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Nice gun"਍ഀ
਍ഀ
John passed out the rest of the weapons.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
John called to his small commando team;਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Right, Lt James, Ensign Johnson and Major T'Vanek shall we retrieve the਍ഀ
commander?"਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"I think we can, although I do believe that he will be the least guarded of਍ഀ
all of our objectives, even if he does have some information that they are਍ഀ
trying to extract, no alarms have been set off. Who expects that we are਍ഀ
free? We have some element of surprise."਍ഀ
਍ഀ
The four officers moved down the corridor, rows and rows of doors; all with਍ഀ
different numbers but otherwise seeming completely akin.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
After a while the First Officer held his hand up, calling the group to a਍ഀ
stop and turned towards a certain door.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Wilson quietly turned around and asked quietly;਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"David, I do not suppose you can still pick locks?"਍ഀ
਍ഀ
~You think I could ever forget something as useful as that? Can you still਍ഀ
pick locks, what would 'Fingers' say about that? Having a commanding officer਍ഀ
draw upon the skills that you had taught me. To save a world no less. I'll਍ഀ
show him. ~਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"This will be not a problem, how long you can give me? Might I suggest I਍ഀ
open up only after the others have disabled the devices?"਍ഀ
਍ഀ
(Reply Wilson)਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Dave knelt down to the control panel and started working on the wiring on਍ഀ
the inside of the door structure.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
~I thought I had left door hacking and breaking and entry back on Earth. Ah਍ഀ
well at least I am really good at it, and enjoy it. ~਍ഀ

Ryan saw a guard come to the cell and saw what Lt. Wilson had done. Ryan਍ഀ
stood up from the floor and walked over to Lt. Wilson. Lt. Wilson was਍ഀ
handing out weapons to a few of the crew members. Lt. Wilson walked towards਍ഀ
Ryan with a few weapons.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Can you work one of them Ensign?" Lt. Wilson asked਍ഀ
਍ഀ
With a grin and taking the weapn. "Yes sir I can." Lt. Wilson walked over਍ഀ
to another of the crew member handing out a weapon.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Lt James, Ensign Johnson and Major T'Vanek shall we retrieve the਍ഀ
commander?"਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Ryan with a smile. "Just tell me what to do sir."਍ഀ

Kaitlyn had not been sitting long, before a guard showed up at their਍ഀ
cell. ~Great...~ Slowly standing and crowding in with the crew, the plan਍ഀ
suddenly went into action. And believe it or not, it actually worked!਍ഀ
਍ഀ
~I'll have to remember to thank David for this.......and tell him਍ഀ
that if he ever does this again I'll kill him myself....~਍ഀ
਍ഀ
As she turned to face John, she noticed he was handing out weapons.਍ഀ
Turning to her, he said, "Kaitlyn, hang back with the bulk of people and਍ഀ
hold your ground here."਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"But what about you? I don't want you to be taking any more chances਍ഀ
out there than you have to." She said giving him puppy eyess.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Hey its me I'll be fine," John stated smiling.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Fine....we'll see about that when I'm the one who ends up fixing਍ഀ
you." She said and smiled at him. She then turned to join up with the crew਍ഀ
towards the back.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Going along, they didn't have to make many stops. Most of the stuff਍ഀ
wasn't even a challenge for some of the members. David picked a lock or਍ഀ
two, then they were off to get Morty and Tagon. Unfortunatly for Morty, he਍ഀ
looked a little out of it.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
~Well, guess I'll sit back and watch the action for awhile.....~਍ഀ

Ryan and the rest of the group walked down the corridor. Ryan saw Lt.਍ഀ
Wilson keep looking behind them. A little ways down the corridor the crew਍ഀ
heard a voice.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"James and Major, hold here," Lt. Wilson stated.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
(Reply James, Major)਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"David I do not suppose you can still picks locks?" John asked him.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
(Reply James)਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Good get to work," John Said in a low voice.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
At whick time Ryan was standing just a few feet ahead of them making sure no਍ഀ
one came down the corridor and surprised them.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Johnson," John whispered attempting to remain as quite as possible. Ryan਍ഀ
looked at him. "Can you and the Major Scout ahead, find a control room so਍ഀ
we can prevent the implants on our crew,"਍ഀ
਍ഀ
With out saying a word Ryan nodded his head and started off down the਍ഀ
corridor with T'Vanek beside him.਍ഀ

Dru had started to regain his strengnth. Slowly he continued to work at the਍ഀ
chains, binding him to the wall. The sonic weapons used to subdue him਍ഀ
packed quite a punch, and drained his strength. He was actuallly surprised਍ഀ
that he survived.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
After listened to Morty snore for a while Dru decided to meditate and try to਍ഀ
regain his strenth. His only companion were the sounds of screams coming਍ഀ
down the corridor. Dru tried to locate where they may have been coming਍ഀ
from. The voice sounded oddly familiar.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Being in the dark dungeon reminded him of a time in his childhood. He had਍ഀ
been wandering around the estate that he lived on. His wanderings took him਍ഀ
to a part of the main building that he had never been to before.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
There wee steps leading to what Dru assumed was a storage area. It turned਍ഀ
out that it was a storage area for the "Unwanted." The unwanted were਍ഀ
prisoners that nobody cared about any more. They had no family or friends਍ഀ
who cared if they lived or died, and then they had the misfortune to break਍ഀ
the law.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Dru unwittingly found himself in this dark, and dank place. The smell was਍ഀ
the most awful thing he had experienced. But it didn't curb his curiosity.਍ഀ
Finally he found a cell with a single occupant. He appeared to be the only਍ഀ
living thing in the whole place. Dru remembered the fright he got as the਍ഀ
creature ran for the door when he heard the boy.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
The hollowed face and dark eyes. The smell of his breath. At first he਍ഀ
didn't think that the door would hold, since it looked as if it were਍ഀ
suffering from wood rot...਍ഀ
਍ഀ
A sound brought Dru back to the real world. It was the sound of the door਍ഀ
being opened. Dru took a deep breath and began to strain against the chains਍ഀ
again. He could feel the wall ready to give. He wuld wait for the right਍ഀ
moment before breaking his bonds.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Someone came into the darkness. Actually there were several someones. A਍ഀ
smile came across the Bikar's face. The more the merrier. It was odd that਍ഀ
they did not have a light, but that just helped Tagon's situation.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
He could hear the sounds of them unchaining Morty. He lifted his arm as਍ഀ
someone approached. Then there was a voice. It Tagon a moment but he਍ഀ
recognized it. It was lt. Wilson.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Ensign Tagon long time no see, ready to go?" Wilson said.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Tagon relaxed his muscles and attempted to be nonchalant about his਍ഀ
situation.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Ah Lt., I was just about to be on my way to see you. I am indeed ready to਍ഀ
go, but I seem to be held back from that for the moment. If you could lend਍ഀ
a hand."਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Let's get out of here then," the Lt. replied.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
He showed the manacles around his wrists. Wilson produced a weapon. Tagon਍ഀ
was impressed, since he was certain that it was no small feet to obtain it.਍ഀ
The weapon went of and Tagon was free from his bonds.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Dru rubbed his wrists, feeling that they were free. He stretched his਍ഀ
massive arms feeling the strength return. Then he realized something else,਍ഀ
he was completely naked.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Um, Lt, do you think we might find something for me to wear?" Tagon asked,਍ഀ
with uncharacteristic modesty.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Ensign I understand your position but do you have any ideas about where to਍ഀ
go from here, a direction or area that they might be holding the Commander."਍ഀ
਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Suddenly the screams made sense. It was the Commander. Tagon cursed਍ഀ
himself.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Not exactly sir," he said. "But I have an idea where he may be. And I਍ഀ
think he may be in trouble."਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Suddenly, uncaring of his state of undress he headed for the door. "I਍ഀ
believe that I may have made a general mental map of where the Commander may਍ഀ
be."਍ഀ

With Ensign Tagon released John smiled the chances of surviving this had਍ഀ
doubled already but still it was not 100% positive. John tried not to look਍ഀ
at the naked Brikar as he stood up and seemed quite agitated.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"I believe that I may have made a general mental map of where the Commander਍ഀ
may਍ഀ
be." John smiled and nodded to Tagon.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Well lead the way Ensign," John stated keeping his pistol un-holstered, as਍ഀ
they began to move out of the room John herd footsteps. With out saying a਍ഀ
word he indicated to David to make ready and take aim. As they stood on਍ഀ
opposite sides of the corridor a familiar voice spoke softly.਍ഀ

Ryan started off down the corridor a with T'Vanek by his side. Ryan stopped਍ഀ
and looked at T'Vanek. "Your the higher ranking officer here. How do you਍ഀ
want to want to proceed with finding the control room?"਍ഀ
਍ഀ
(Reply T'Vanek)਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Ryan nodded his head up and down and started to walk down the corridor਍ഀ
slowly. As the two walked both of them came to a T-section in the hallway.਍ഀ
Ryan heard what sounded like a person giving people orders to someone.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"I want you two to stand out here and make sure no one get's inside. Do I਍ഀ
make myself clean?" The voice coming from around a corner said. Ryan਍ഀ
looked at T'Vanek and both raised there phaser's up to firing postions.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Yes Sir." Two voices said at the sametime. Ryan leaned up against the਍ഀ
wall as close as he could. T"Vanek stood next to Ryan and both of them਍ഀ
stood still. Ryan heard foot steps but they were sounding fanter by the਍ഀ
step. The foot steps were hard to hear until finally there were no more਍ഀ
sounds of foot steps.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
(Reply T'Vanek)਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Ryan nodded his head up and down. Ryan slid to the floor and was on his਍ഀ
hands and knees. Ryan peaked around the corner of the wall and saw two਍ഀ
armed guards standing on either side a door. Ryan looked up at T'Vanek and਍ഀ
made a peace sign with his left hand. Then Ryan mouthed to T'Vanek that he਍ഀ
would take the closest guard. T'Vanek nodded and held up his phaser. Ryan਍ഀ
still on his knees lifted up his phaser and was ready to fire.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Ryan and T'Vanek at the sametime came around the wall at the T-shape hallway਍ഀ
and fired at both the guards. Both guards went down and Ryan stood up.਍ഀ
Ryan and T'Vanek went to where both the guards were laying on the floor.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Ryan knelt down to the first gurad. "This one is still alive. How about਍ഀ
yours?"਍ഀ
਍ഀ
(Reply T'Vanek)਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Ryan stood up and saw that the door had what looked like a pale reader to਍ഀ
open the door. "T'Vanek that look's like a palm reader to open up the door.਍ഀ
What do you think about helping me hold on of the guards up and using his਍ഀ
hand?"਍ഀ
਍ഀ
(Reply T'Vanek)਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Both of them grabbed one of the guards. Ryan placed the right hand of the਍ഀ
guard on the hand padd. The door chiper and opened up. Ryan and T'Vanek਍ഀ
both dropped the guard at the sametime and reached for there phaser's.਍ഀ

___________________________਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Crais walked around the commander once more he still had not broke and no਍ഀ
answers had been given. The Romulan was incredibly resilient to the torture਍ഀ
and he was on a time limit.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Right Commander Last chance," Crais stated becoming quite agitated since he਍ഀ
was on a time constraint.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"You will get nothing out of me," Vladek responded channelling all his pain਍ഀ
into anger and defiance.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"I am fed up of these games," Crais stated activating the electric shock਍ഀ
once more, as the commander arched his back again and screamed in pain Crais਍ഀ
made a realisation.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
~Im not going to break him by simple torture a new tactic must be employed,਍ഀ
~ Crais thought to himself. Crais pressed his door chime and a guard moved਍ഀ
in with a female Ensign. Crais had already attached an implant to her and he਍ഀ
knew he could kill her in a heartbeat. This was a dangerous tactic to਍ഀ
employ, if he threatened to kill the woman and he did not he would display਍ഀ
weakness and thus enforce the Commanders resilience. If he did kill her he਍ഀ
could strengthen his resolve it was a matter of a suttile line between the਍ഀ
two.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Commander Vladek Rofellian from this point you are responsible for the life਍ഀ
of Ensign," Crais paused waiting for her to state her name on her refusal he਍ഀ
nodded to the guard who hit her across the head.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Im Ensign Heather Longfellow," The woman responded, Crais smiled and then਍ഀ
activated the electric shock on her. As she sprawled around on the floor he਍ഀ
saw the emotion in Vladek's eyes and the anger.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"TELL ME THE CODE COMMANDER SHE HAS 30 SECONDS!" Crais yelled at the਍ഀ
Commander, as the woman screamed out in pain Crais watched in pleasure as਍ഀ
Vladek yelled out.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"OK! SirtakOmega13405974," Crais nodded to the officer who had recorded the਍ഀ
entire conversation. Crais released the button and the electrocution ceased.਍ഀ
Crais turned and began to leave the room as he moved he felt the woman moved਍ഀ
to sit on her knees. As eh covertly unholstered his pistol he set it to kill਍ഀ
and then span around and with the pistol behind his back he moved behind the਍ഀ
woman and then placed the pistol to her head and fired. The woman's dead਍ഀ
body fell to the ground lifeless, Vladek's face turned into pure rage and he਍ഀ
began to scream at Crais. Crais did not respond but he holstered his pistol਍ഀ
and then shouted.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Exicute the senior officers, all of them," Crais ordered leaving the room,਍ഀ
on his way out the guard looked at him. Crais stopped as the guard spoke.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Sir, all of them even the women?" The guard asked.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"YES ALL OF THEM WIPE THEM OUT," Crais paused and looked at the commander.਍ഀ
"Keep him alive he may still be needed plus let him realise what he has਍ഀ
done," Crais stated leaving the room followed by the guards dragging the਍ഀ
woman's body out of the room.਍ഀ

It hadn't taken long before the group was actually doing well on਍ഀ
their journey out of the hidious place they were in. With T'Vanek and਍ഀ
Johnson being sent up to the control room, that only left a few members of਍ഀ
the team. ~If we could just find Rofellian....~਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Kaitlyn already knew where that room was, and she really didn't want਍ഀ
to return to it that badly, but she knew they had to rescue Rofellian.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Jogging up to John for a moment, she whispered, "I know where they're਍ഀ
keeping Rofellian. They had us in the same room. If you want I can lead਍ഀ
you the cell .....as long as Johnson and T'Vanek get to the control room and਍ഀ
shut these...things, " she felt her forehead where the implant was, "down."਍ഀ
਍ഀ
<<Reply Wilson>>਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Alright. Would it be easier for us to split into groups or stay as਍ഀ
a whole?" Just as she finished asking that question, she heard a voice over਍ഀ
the COM.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"ALL HANDS THIS IS COLONEL LEMSSINX, THE PRISONERS HAVE ESCAPED ALL਍ഀ
HANDS REPORT TO DEFENCE STATIONS."਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Turning back to look at the group, they all exchanged looks.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Nevermind, " she mumbled to herself, although she knew someone heard਍ഀ
her. "Well at any rate they know now......might as well go out with a਍ഀ
bang."਍ഀ

Moving stealthily down a hall was not one of Tagon's specialties. His body਍ഀ
took up most of the hallway. Dr. Mackenzie had managed to squeeze by him਍ഀ
and take the lead. He could see her glance back once or twice at his਍ഀ
undressed form.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
~I have got to find some clothes.~਍ഀ
਍ഀ
When the announcement came through the halls of their escaped Dru began to਍ഀ
prepare himself for battle.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Well at any rate they know now," Wilson said, "......might as well go out਍ഀ
with a bang."਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Tagon looked back at him with an evil look in his eyes.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Well I feel sorry," Wilson said, " for them that is."਍ഀ
਍ഀ
As they came to a corner Dru could sense something. There was a smell in਍ഀ
the air. A smell of fear and weapons.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Time to die," he whispered to himself. A hand reached out and pulled the਍ഀ
doctor back just as enrgy weapon fire started.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Right people time to get our hands dirty," Wilson ordered. "Lt James and਍ഀ
Ensign Tagon can you head to that room once we deal with these and get our਍ഀ
equipment mainly com badges."਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Aye sir," Tagon replied. "And maybe some pants?"਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Well is everyone ready?" he asked. They all nodded.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Wilson led the assault as he had the only real weapon. Tagon moved slowly਍ഀ
across the hallway, using his body to protect the others. Several of the਍ഀ
sonic blaster shots hit him. He felt them, but was able to keep going.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
One shot caught him close to the groin. That was it. In a fit of rage਍ഀ
Tagon headed down the hall. He grabbed the guards by the door and slammed਍ഀ
them together. He dropped their unconscious bodies to the floor. After਍ഀ
that, the fight in the other Crytonians seemed to have left them, as they਍ഀ
were leaving the area.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"James, Tagon get our equipment!" came Wilson's orders.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"On it, " Tagon said. He and Lt. James headed for the storage room.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Once they got there, the door was, of course, locked. Tagon looked at਍ഀ
James. James started to work on the lock. Dru shook his head and gently਍ഀ
moved the Lt. aside.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Excuse me Lt.," he said politely. Then a little less politely he slammed਍ഀ
his hands into the door, which quickly became unhinged.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
(reply James)਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Just trying to save some time, sir," Tagon said.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Once inside they saw their equipment. There was a clothes locker there too.਍ഀ
Dru searched through all of the clothing only to find one pair of pants,਍ഀ
that were still too small. It was better than what he had on, which was਍ഀ
nothing.਍ഀ

After clearing out the room of the guards, James heard the order to retrieve਍ഀ
the equipment from the FO.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Quickly James moved towards the only armored door in the wide expanse of the਍ഀ
room.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
David meticulously went to work on the lock; he heard a booming, deep cough਍ഀ
from behind him.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Excuse me Lt.," he said politely. Then a little less politely he slammed਍ഀ
his hands into the door, which quickly became unhinged.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Mr. Tagon, I like your style" David smiled widely at the Brikkar.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
(Reply Tagon)਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Have I ever told you that you remind me of an old friend I had back at਍ഀ
home?, we used to call him 'Tank'. Built like one and all."਍ഀ
਍ഀ
~And look where it got him, eh?~਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Suppressing the gloomy feelings, Dave examined the dark corners of the਍ഀ
store-room.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
David's mood instantly lightened when he saw four crates, each bearing the਍ഀ
Starfleet Marine Corp emblem.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Hello, Hello, Hello. What have we got here then?"਍ഀ
਍ഀ
(Reply Tagon)਍ഀ
਍ഀ
David opened the hermalogical seals of the first box and whistled loudly.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
The first box was full of Marine Phaser Rifles, all loaded and ready for਍ഀ
action.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Another couple of seals and a full crate of phaser ammo was revealed.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
A loud hissing was heard as the atmosphere in the box stabilised.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
David silently gasped as he saw a full BDU in its transportation packing.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
~It's too bad I am the only one trained to use this.~਍ഀ
਍ഀ
David's grin widened even more.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
~Stop kidding yourself, no it isn't!~਍ഀ
਍ഀ
James laughed to himself.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
The third contained plasma grenades.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
~Wow, better get these to the troops~਍ഀ
਍ഀ
David rushed back into the main room and yelled to the crew there.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Weapons in that back room. Come and get your shiny new phaser rifles and਍ഀ
commbadges"਍ഀ
਍ഀ

It took James only a few minutes to suit up in the heavy BDU but after he਍ഀ
felt, quite understandably much more powerful, with the mechanised armour਍ഀ
behind him and the phaser rifle in hand, he felt right at home.਍ഀ

Ryan followed T'Vanek into the room. Inside the room was what looked like a਍ഀ

_________________________਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Vladek wasn't very proud of him, he should have guessed that this sneaking਍ഀ
rat would have killed the Ensign anyway, he was inwardly believing that਍ഀ
there was still some humanity in that man. But it seemed that Bilar Crais਍ഀ
wasn't anymore a living creature in the literal sense, he had become਍ഀ
something cold almost like a stone, even Ensign Tagon who was a rock਍ഀ
creature had more humanity than that butcher.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
If he had continued to torture him, Vladek wouldn't have revealed the codes,਍ഀ
he was stronger enought to resist for a while and his life didn't matter but਍ഀ
Crais had found his weak point. Even if he was born Romulan, Vladek had been਍ഀ
raised amongst humans, there he had learned all the feelings that someone਍ഀ
could feel. He was Romulan outside and human inside, in seeing the pain that਍ഀ
the young Ensign was enduring, it's is human side who has yelled the command਍ഀ
codes.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
This mission was a real catastrophy, he had made lot of mistakes and he was਍ഀ
regretting that he hadn't followed his sixth sense which was telling him to਍ഀ
be more suspicious about all that. Now all his crew was sentenced to death,਍ഀ
his ship was in the hands of the Crytonian Black Order and now with the਍ഀ
command codes they were able to use her firepower. What a mess, then a voice਍ഀ
coming from the communication speakers interrupted his thoughts "ALL HANDS਍ഀ
THIS IS COLONEL LEMSSINX, THE PRISONERS HAVE ESCAPED ALL HANDS REPORT TO਍ഀ
DEFENCE STATIONS."਍ഀ
਍ഀ
~ Yeah, I knew that I could count on them, what a crew, but wait a minute I਍ഀ
know that voice and that name Lemssinx, damned, son of ..., we were pretty਍ഀ
sure he wasn't an Ambassador. So he is a Colonel and he seemed to have some਍ഀ
autorities here. I would give anything to have him handy, bloody bastaard.~਍ഀ
Vladek thought in hearing some noises in the corridor, people were running਍ഀ
then he distinctively heard fire blasts and sonic weapons.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Then the silence, another blast followed by a kick on the door which opened਍ഀ
it. Lt. Wilson followed by the CMO entered and came in his direction ~਍ഀ
finally some friendly faces~~, Vladek was still strapped on his chair਍ഀ
"Kaitlyn do something for him," John ordered moving over as well.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Ok....some of these devices I've seen and removed before. I can take some਍ഀ
of them off, but others I'm not so sure. It would be better if we could get਍ഀ
back to the ship and do it......but since that's not exactly an option at਍ഀ
the moment, we'll just have to be able to block the sensor so they can't਍ഀ
track him or anything." stated the Doctor.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Right, just make him ready to travel," John ordered then looking over਍ഀ
Vladek, he began to undo the straps that had binded him, smiling John spoke਍ഀ
softly "See what a mess you get in without me,".਍ഀ
਍ഀ
" Well John, next time..... I'll let you my place.... with pleasure." Vladek਍ഀ
replied, his ideas still confused਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Well Kaitlyn what is the prognosis?" John enquired.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"He'll be okay for now, but the sooner we can get the rest off, the better.਍ഀ
I'll also have to do a complete physical when we get back to make sure਍ഀ
everything else is fine." Kaitlyn frowned. "However, with the neurological਍ഀ
damage, that might take awhile to repair. It depends on how bad the voltage਍ഀ
was and how many times he was shocked."਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Right, for the mean time as long as he is fit to travel lets deal with the਍ഀ
other problems later. We have faith in you," John stated਍ഀ
਍ഀ
" Same for me Doctor but I can't help you more, I can't remember how many਍ഀ
times he has send me the voltage but I'm feeling like I've spend the night਍ഀ
with an electric eel but I'm not yet death" he replied in trying to stand up਍ഀ
but his legs didn't seemed to support his weight and felt back on the chair਍ഀ
" Oh, oh, I've overestimated one's strengh." then looking around " Guys, if਍ഀ
you are planning to move out here now, I think you'll have to carry me for a਍ഀ
while."਍ഀ
਍ഀ
(Reply any)਍ഀ
਍ഀ
They were about to help Vladek standing up when the viewscreen fixed on one਍ഀ
of the walls lighted up, revealing the face of the false Ambassador " Ah,਍ഀ
Commander Rofellian, glad to see that you are still alive. I didn't wanted਍ഀ
to leave before thanking you for giving me so gently the command codes of਍ഀ
your ship."਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Vladek looked up and stared him in the eyes " You should thank Mr Crais for਍ഀ
that, he has some persuasives arguments, Ambassador or should I say Colonel਍ഀ
Lemssinx from the Black Order."਍ഀ
਍ഀ
" Seeing how you look Cmdr, I can imagine the treatment he has done to you਍ഀ
and I apologize for him. And don't worry I've thanked him well, he is laying਍ഀ
on my office's carpet. A great loss for our Secret Service but sometimes਍ഀ
certain things must be done." the Colonel explained਍ഀ
਍ഀ
" You are worst than him Colonel and if I get my hands on you, I ..." but਍ഀ
the Colonel didn't let him finished " You won't have that pleasure Cmdr, I਍ഀ
prefer to have no witnesses so for your information, the Citadell will be਍ഀ
destroyed in approximativelly thirty minutes by several explosions. Another਍ഀ
terrorist attack from the CLO of course which has caused the death of all਍ഀ
the Federation people. What a shame, enjoy what's left." and the screen went਍ഀ
black.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
" Damned bastaard, let's move out of this building before we receive it on਍ഀ
our heads." Vladek stated while they were moving out of the room, in looking਍ഀ
a last time at the death body of the young Ensign on the floor.਍ഀ

"Colonel Lemssinx," Crais stated entering the room brandishing a pad. "The਍ഀ
Commander has given us the information we required," Crais did not smile but਍ഀ
the colonel beamed with a pleasurable smile.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Well done Crais, I will transmit this to the Station," As Colonel Lemssinx਍ഀ
received the pad and ran his hand over the metal an officer ran in.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Colonel my apologies, the guards on the cell deck have not replied nor have਍ഀ
the guards on the implant deck," The guard took a deep breath.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Colonel might I surgest full mobilization of all forces and the sealing of਍ഀ
the deck the marines are on. Also seal of the building and implement all਍ഀ

"ALL HANDS THIS IS COLONEL LEMSSINX, THE PRISONERS HAVE ESCAPED ALL HANDS਍ഀ

eyebrow.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"You didn't tell them we are evacuating," Crais stated, Lemssinx smiled and਍ഀ
moved closer to Crais. As Lemssinx laid his hand on Crais's shoulder he਍ഀ
then felt a sharp blow to his back in a instant reaction he attempted to਍ഀ
defend but Lemssinx pushed the blade in further pushing it up through Crais'਍ഀ
s back. As he felt to his knees Crais finally laughed for the first time in਍ഀ
years, placing his hand to his back he felt the wound and then sat on his਍ഀ
knees laughing. Lemssinx moved to Crais's side and knelt by his side.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Crais, I forgot to tell you. You executed my father and my mother, now they਍ഀ

moved out of the room. Crais fell on to his back finally being happy; the਍ഀ
end was here finally it was time to see his wife. Crais did not cry or਍ഀ
scream out in pain he just laughed finally being set free.਍ഀ

Therefore it stood to reason that none had been hit, Once the hum of the਍ഀ

looked at the man in the eyes without blinking.਍ഀ

talking. Then Rofellian tried to stand, unsuccessfully.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Oh, oh, I've overestimated one's strengh." Hen looked around. "Guys, if਍ഀ
you are planning to move out here now, I think you'll have to carry me for a਍ഀ
while."਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Tagon stepped forward. "That would be my honor."਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Before Tagon could move the viewscren behind them flickered on and showed਍ഀ
Lemssinx, smiling down at them. Wehn he told them he had killed Crais਍ഀ
himself Dru went from feeling happy to angry again. He wanted that pleasure਍ഀ
to be his alone. Ah well, at least he was dead and there was some comfort਍ഀ
in that.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Lemssinx went on to explain how the Citidel was about to blow up in 30਍ഀ
minutes.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"What a shame," Lemssinx said.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Lemssinx," Tagon growled, "I always keep my promises."਍ഀ
਍ഀ
At that the screen went blank.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
" Damned bastaard," Rofellian said, "let's move out of this building before਍ഀ
we receive it on our heads."਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Tagon deftly reached down and hoisted the commander into is arms, holding਍ഀ
him as if he were a baby.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
He looked down at the Rofellian and asked, "Comfy?"਍ഀ
਍ഀ
(reply Rofellian)਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Then he tried to speak his anguish at not performing his duties adequetly.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Commander, I..."਍ഀ
਍ഀ
(reply Rofellian)਍ഀ
਍ഀ
At that he didn't say another word as he carried Rofellian, following the਍ഀ
others.਍ഀ

The massive Brikkar hoisted Vladek into is arms, holding him as if he were a਍ഀ
baby. Vladek was a little embarrassed by the situation but it was for the਍ഀ
moment the only way for him to move, his legs were still refusing to hold਍ഀ
him਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Tagon looked down at Vladek and asked, "Comfy?"਍ഀ
਍ഀ
" Well Ensign, in those arms I would travel till the end of the world."਍ഀ
Vladek replied਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Then he noticed that the Security Officer was about to say something about਍ഀ
the current situation "Commander, I..."਍ഀ
਍ഀ
But Vladek didn't let him finished " You've nothing to blame yourself਍ഀ
Ensign, As your Commanding Officer I'm the only responsible, I should have਍ഀ
taken our suspicions more seriously."਍ഀ
਍ഀ
At that he didn't say another word as he carried Vladek, following the਍ഀ
others out of the torture room.਍ഀ

Tagon and Kaitlyn were in front, leading the rest of the team to਍ഀ
Rofellian. So far they had been successful. Thanks to them, at least the਍ഀ
whole group wouldn't be stuck there trying to find them instead.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Kaitlyn had just reached a corner and was about to turn right. Just਍ഀ
as she was about to turn, she felt someone grab her arm and pull her back.਍ഀ
She realized it was John after she hit the wall next to him. Then she heard਍ഀ
the firing of guns and knew why he did what he did. But that wasn't਍ഀ
anything they couldn't handle with the team of people they had.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Right people time to get our hands dirty," John stated. Kaitlyn਍ഀ
listened as he started giving out orders to people. "Brilliant, Kaitlyn you਍ഀ
are with me if you don't mind. Vladek may need medical attention when we get਍ഀ
to him."਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Lets just hope he isn't in too deep. I'm not sure how much਍ഀ
equipment we'll have that I can help him with at this moment." Looking down਍ഀ
in thought, she started thinking about other things she might be able to use਍ഀ
if she absolutly had to......just to be on the safe side and all.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
Soon after he handed out the assignments, they were all on their way.਍ഀ
John and Kaitlyn weren't too far away from the room where Vladek was being਍ഀ
held. Before she knew it, John was kicking in the door. Kaitlyn wasn't਍ഀ
prepared to take in the sight of Vladek though. Seeing him like this was਍ഀ
entirely different.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
He was strapped to a chair with a lot more devices on him than were਍ഀ
on her to begin with.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Kaitlyn do something for him," John ordered.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
The only thing they could both do at the moment was unstrap Vladek.਍ഀ
Stopping, she thought for a moment.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Ok....some of these devices I've seen and removed before. I can਍ഀ
take some of them off, but others I'm not so sure. It would be better if we਍ഀ
could get back to the ship and do it......but since that's not exactly an਍ഀ
option at the moment, we'll just have to be able to block the sensor so਍ഀ
they can't track him or anything."਍ഀ
਍ഀ
<<Reply Wilson>>਍ഀ
਍ഀ
It took Kaitlyn a few moments to unwire some of the devices from਍ഀ
others, but she got about 85% of them off.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Well Kaitlyn what is the prognosis?"਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"He'll be okay for now, but the sooner we can get the rest off , the਍ഀ
better. I'll also have to do a complete physical when we get back to make਍ഀ
sure everything else is fine." Kaitlyn frowned. "However, with the਍ഀ
neurological damage, that might take awhile to repair. It depends on how਍ഀ
bad the voltage was and how many times he was shocked."਍ഀ
਍ഀ
<<Reply Wilson>>਍ഀ

John looked at his friend who did not seem in a good shape, as Jon thought਍ഀ
about one goal which was revenge Kaitlyn's voice snapped him back to਍ഀ
reality.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Ok.... some of these devices I've seen and removed before. I can take some਍ഀ

him or anything."਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Right, just make him ready to travel," John ordered not being blunt but਍ഀ
there wasn't much time at all.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Well Kaitlyn what is the prognosis?" John enquired having full faith in਍ഀ
her medical abilities.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"He'll be okay for now, but the sooner we can get the rest off, the better.਍ഀ
I'll also have to do a complete physical when we get back to make sure਍ഀ

damage, that might take awhile to repair. It depends on how bad the voltage਍ഀ
was and how many times he was shocked."਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"Right, for the mean time as long as he is fit to travel lets deal with the਍ഀ
other problems later. We have faith in you," John stated speaking on his own਍ഀ
behalf and that of Vladek.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
"I'll do the best I can." Kaitlyn replied, John turned and moved out of the਍ഀ
room and spotted Tagon and James. Tagon now wore pants, which was a good਍ഀ
move however due to his size the pants were not the best of fits. John਍ഀ
paused and did not speak for a while trying to remember who he resembled but਍ഀ
then dropped the train of thought. As he received a com badge he began to਍ഀ
think.਍ഀ

With the escape of the prisoners, all the planning was modified, the attack਍ഀ
on the CLO HQ was normally scheduled for 15:00 in the afternoon but now with਍ഀ
the explosion of the Citadell in almost 25 minutes, they had to speed up਍ഀ
things.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
He was en route to the space station where the Federation ship was docked,਍ഀ
he had the command codes with him, with those in a few hours, the CLO base਍ഀ
will be completely destroyed and all the resistance movement will be਍ഀ
eradicate.਍ഀ
਍ഀ
It was a pity they couldn't keep the Defiant Class after the attack but it਍ഀ
was too risky, his plan was simple, after the destruction of the miningbase,਍ഀ
they'll crashed the ship into the ruins. So for the Federation, the ship਍ഀ
will be destroyed and all the crew will be dead in trying to rescue the਍ഀ
hostages. All the remaining federation people will spend the rest of their਍ഀ
life in the mines and no one would heard of them anymore.਍ഀ
