OOC: Jim did some fantastic work on the layout and contents of the lab when he was here, so please have a look at the following threads if you want to get a sense of what the lab looked like:

IC: The corridor held only two doors. Both reinforced. Both impenetrable without the requisite, elevated clearance. The left-hand door was as familiar to Nakuto as her own quarters. Perhaps even more considering the long hours she was dedicating to her work. But of the right-hand door, the half-Klingon had been battling to ignore it, to deny its existence and resist the pull of secrets buried within. To avoid facing the truth that, once again, she had been party to the disappearance of a dear friend.

Her last conversation with John McHarrie had been unsettling, the Welshman forcing her to accept a terrifying truth - that a creature once relegated to legend was not only real, but here, as a specimen, on this ship. Inevitable, John had told her, that Section 31 and James McHarrie would come in pursuit. All he had wanted was to complete his experiment before they arrived to claim it back. Had his quest for answers been rewarded with success?

At the threshold, Kara paused and glanced at Reira. No requirement to speak aloud her warning of the dangers held within. Akaba knew John’s history better than even she. Still, she offered him a final “Ready?” before pressing her fingertips to the scanner and then with a final glance over her shoulder, taking Reira’s arm and leading them both inside…

In the shadows, a lone man sat quietly. No one knew he had entered this area, that was more like the tunnels on his homeworld of Turkan IV than Harel wanted to admit, before he had even seen his quarters. After all, he was likely going to be spending more time in here than at home. He didn’t say anything or make any movements. Just stared at a read-out on his PaDD taking in every word. Yes, this job was going to do nicely. Maybe eventually it would lead him to his ultimate goal. Of course that was secondary. First was duty to this ship and duty to the research.

She sensed the presence of the other before she saw him, tiny hairs bristling along the length of her spine at the realisation that they were not alone. With subconscious instinct, her hand moved to her left hip and the hilt of the concealed d’k tahg, although for the moment she made no attempt to draw.
As always, for one formed from dual, and often conflicting, cultures, it took a moment for Nakuto to settle on her path. To retreat from the room as silently as she had attempted to enter? Or to follow, instead, the instinct of her mother, a true daughter of Qo’nos…

“This is a restricted area!” voice echoing like rolling thunder as she advanced upon Harel. “Do you possess the appropriate clearance to be in here?”

The danger lay just in reach… But the answers were there too, John was clearly playing with fire and Section 31 were the Gods of Olympus about to punish Prometheus for giving it to humans. He needed to know for so many reasons, where his partner could have gone and what precisely were these Reman Imps? He knew of them back on the Viking, when he was fresh and thought he could escape the shadow of his father without slaying the monster.

Nodding at her final ready, he snuck inside and began examination, something made the hairs of his neck stand up on the back of his neck. Programming himself as an authorized user very quickly in case of alarms and moreso to access all systems, Kara’s voice cracking like thunder would have made him jump if his life running from his childhood nightmare of a father hadn’t made his nerves harder than deuterium.

“Lieutenant Harel, I do not believe you have the appropriate clearance to be here. State your business.” Reira commanded, his tone going from warm and kind towards an old friend to harsh and demanding and rather similar to the Collective, inflexible and intolerant. Even if he didn’t move or make a sound, he could hear his heart beating, the thermal variance caused by his breath. His own hand subconsciously reached for one of the several knives he kept on him at all times, hidden in boots and sleeves as well as at least 2 modified phasers on him. Reira never went anywhere unarmed unless he could help it, he knew to be ready to fight at any time. He felt the cold metal of the hilt on his fingers, ready to strike like a viper.
