=/= Cadet TJCT to Bridge. Medical and Science believe shocking one of the infected will stop what they are calling the parasite. I do not believe it is a parasite. Could you please update them on whether contact has been made with whatever has control of the other vessel. =/=

OOC: Fantastic job cross-posting this!

Emmy’s pacing stopped mid-pace, leaving her weight precariously balanced between her two lower limbs. It took a conscious effort to shift her weight fully to her left leg so that she could bring her right leg up to meet it and find her complete balance. A torrent of responses cascaded through her mind, mostly surrounding the absurdity of a cadet reaching out to the bridge directly while assisting in a delicate operation with two experienced senior staff members. That said, though, while her demand for information was unconventional to say the least, she had to do her due diligence to see if any further information had been obtained.

=/\= Davis to Tanner. One moment. =/\=

=/\= Challenger to Harkness. Do you have any updates with what we are dealing with here? =/\=

Davis, CO

=^= Harkness here Captain. It seems like the Potterfield’s crew abducted this entity from their home planet. Everything that has happened so far has been in retaliation for that, and as the entity has tried to survive. I’m hoping that we can come to some sort of agreement that both sides can be happy with. =^=

Cmdr. Harkness - XO

Emmy remained silent for several seconds, not at all sure how to respond to this news. One take on it could be that the Potterfield intended to abduct it, but it could have been an accident. Well, the exact intent didn’t matter at this moment.

=/\= Offer to provide transport back to the home planet. =/\= came her instruction, finally.

Davis, CO

=^= Already have Captain. They are asking for some further reparations. =^=

=/\= Cadet TJCT to Captain, is it possible to find out the name of the home planet that the creature has come from I can explain but not over an open com.=/\=

Emmy blinked again as she processed Tanner’s words. That was a… remarkably good question.

=/\= Wait a moment. =/\=

She turned to the variety of cadets staring at their pacing CO on the bridge. “Where was the Potterfield conducting its mission before it was disabled?”

Davis, CO

=^= Harkness to Davis. I am being taken to meet I believe their leader, and hopefully come to some sort of resolution. I’ll keep you updated as I can. =^=

Cmdr. Harkness - XO

=/\= Understood. I’m going to send another group of cadets over to help with the efforts while you negotiate with the beings. =/\=

Cadet Nosy typed away on the consul before an error noise came back. He paused and typed a few other commands, brow furrowing before the same error sound came back. “Well, Ma’am,” the cadet started, “you aren’t going to like this.”

He took a deep breath and continued, “It seems the Potterfield is just the delivery service. According to official records the cargo was picked up at one of the star bases near by and was to be delivered to a research station. The origin of the samples, however, is code word locked and I am pretty sure I just sent a couple of red flags to Intelligence.”

GM Wombat

“Would my authorization codes work?” Emmy demanded, stopping her pacing to turn and glare at the cadet. This seemed like an essential piece of information for them to resolve this issue as quickly as possible.

As she waited for his response, she followed up on the information she had given Harkness. It turned out that she had the perfect cadet in mind for assisting with freeing the Potterfield.

=/\= Davis to Tanner. Report to the transporter room in appropriate gear to assist with the recovery of the Potterfield. Interface with Lieutenant Vras when you arrive. =/\=

Davis, CO

=/\= Preparing to head to the transporter Sir. TJCT out. =/\= This wasn’t what she wanted and wasn’t what she expected, but she certainly wasn’t going to argue, besides it got her out of medbay and away from the beast who looked more like an animal to be skinned and roasted over an open flame, then anything else, and as for the woman, well, she’d leave that unthought.

Lieutenant Vras’s voice came over the bridge’s com at that point.

=^= Vras to Challenger. I’m ready to re-calibrate Potterfield’s environmental controls. It is going to get cold and dry around here - much like a summer heatwave back home on Andoria. I’ll do my best to keep the effect away from Sickbay and the cargo bay. Ready to start on your orders. =^=
