: : "Access codes have acchived the desired effect Lieutenant." Casira announced smoothly as the systems on board the rennegade vessel began shutting down. "Enemy ship is under our control. Attempting to locate the Captain's commbadge or biosignature." She tapped on the controls, accessing the sensor array as she started to scan the small vessel.

: : : : Dan, seeing that the craft had come to a dead stop and was now under the Athena's control, pounded a closed fist on the armrest of the chair he was in. "Outstanding! I will notify the XO of our success. Helm, bring us close but slowly. We do not want to provoke the Romulans at this time."

: : : : =/\= "Waters to Stark. The craft has come to a complete stop and is unable to engage their engines. We managed to lock them out of their own computer system and the Athena now controls that ship. What is the ETA on your rendezvous?"

: : : =/\= Roughly half an hour =/\= Stark's voice came back loud and clear =/\= You have a go to start a boarding action if you cannot locate and beam back the Captain. If you control the ship you should be able to locate him using their internal sensors =/\=

: : Casira's eyes were still scanning her console as the XO's voice came over the comm system, her brow furrowed in a frown of consternation that didn't really suit her delicate, pretty features. "Sir, the Romulans are now claiming authority over the situation and are barring our access to the stricken vessel. Their intentions are unclear, but they may take issue with or intervene in our attempt to recover the Captain."

: "Steady as she goes Helm. Bring us in closer." Dan accessed the internal sensors for the Romulan craft and attempted to locate the Captain. Dan thought to himself *How many humans can they have on board...*

"Unable to comply, sir." the shock white Caitian responded flatly. "The Romulan Warbird has blocked our aproach - to move any closer without taking evasive action would bring us dangerously close to a collision with them. Also if I may sir, judging by the message they sent us they may believe we are deliberately ignoring their warning, and may consider such action as provocative."
