Mission:
Sins of Lives Past
Location: Main Bridge, USS Montreal
Shortly following the ambush at Section Forty-Two Gamma, the corridors were already full of security officers making sense of the chaos. Despite their preparations, five individuals attacked Lieutenant Deakin, three of them escaping with Deakin in a ship, and Captain Von wanted to know why. With the ship masking its warp signature, they didn't have much to go on to simply follow the ship. It had managed to elude the fighters and escape past the outer perimeter before anyone could figure out what was wrong. That meant their only rested with the two prisoners, the two members of the team that were left behind in the scuffle.
The Ferengi male and Human female were sitting up against the wall of the corridor, armed guards standing on either side of them. Security forcefields had quarantined the section to prevent the prisoners from escaping, but the field was quickly dropped for Von as she approached. She sought out Commander Gunning, who was trying to get information. "Commander, report!" Von demanded from her first officer. "Have either of them told us anything?"
Gunning had just arrived on the scene and managed to stop Darby and Bothek being floored by a heavy stun by an embarrassed security team. "The Ferengi's keeping his mouth shut, Captain. This one would only speak to you though."
Darby looked up at the captain as her first officer gestured toward her. The expression on Von's face told her that she should speak now or be thrown in the brig. She thought about standing up, but knew the security guards would have none of that. "Captain Von," she began and shot a glance at Bothek, wondering what the Ferengi would make of this. "My name is Lieutenant junior grade Amelia Darby. Starfleet service number sierra-indigo-delta-seven-zero-nine-four-six-six-zulu-five. Starfleet Intelligence Covert Operations."
Next to her on the deck, Bothek glared at her and looked like he might attack, but the security guards made it known he wouldn't get away with it.
Liarra nodded her head towards Gunning without taking her eyes off Darby. "Commander, run that service number and see if her story checks out. What was your mission?"
"My mission was to infiltrate the organisation of Oleran Telan and provide information back to Starfleet Intelligence," Darby continued. "I know where they've taken Lieutenant Deakin."
"Where did they take him and why?"
"Petty revenge, plain and simple," Darby replied without hesitation. "Telan has a grudge against Deakin and he's exacting revenge. He's taking him to a planetoid in the outer belt of the Gaven System. I know the coordinates, I can lead you there. But I don't think we have much time."
Gunning stared blankly at the Lieutenant. She had been in his custody for fifteen minutes now and instead of telling him that he might be able to save his friend, she had demanded to speak with the Captain. "Permission to launch the Montreal?"
Von nodded. "Granted. I'll alert the dockmaster that you will be leaving right away. Take Darby with you, but until we have verified her identity, keep a guard on her." She then turned to the guard standing over Bothek. "Take the Ferengi to a holding cell and see if you can get anything more out of him."
"With me, Darby." Gunning said, acknowledging the Captain's orders with a curt nod.
Von watched Darby get hauled up to her feet and shuffled down the corridor. Von paused a moment before turning back to Gunning. "Oh, and Commander, good luck." Deakin may not be her longest serving officer, but he was still one of hers. And that made it personal.
