The main screen switched to an image of a starship bridge packed with sleek, high-tech consoles and crewed by personnel of many species. A Tellarite and an Andorian manned the forward stations. Bolians, Vulcans, Caitians, and Benzites worked at the aft consoles, and a woman with Vulcan ancestry stood at a panel not far from the center chair. But it was the middle-aged human man in that center chair who commanded their full attention. Lean and bald, he had a weathered, worldly look that his black-and-gray uniform couldn’t hide. His face was etched with the lines of a lifetime of sorrow, but in his dark brown eyes burned the light of a powerful intellect. He stood and with a small tug smoothed the front of his uniform jacket before stepping forward. Everything about him—his stride, his carriage, his expression—conveyed an unmistakable air of dignity and gravitas.

=/\= Captain Luc Picard commanding the free starship Enterprise, we have been sent to assist you in cleaning up the mess below =/\=

Ghubari stepped away from tactical with another officer slipping in immediately. Approaching the middle of the bridge, she tilted her head slightly and bowed her head to him. =/\=Captain Picard, I am Captain Ghubari Koraia. I’m glad you’re on our side here. We have people on Rura Penthe who are trying to get free and we have crew going down to help them. But most urgently we have a shuttle with an abducted baby we to rescue. Any and all help is appreciated.=/\= Her voice sounded calm and collected and if she paused for a moment she even felt that way. Later, she knew, there would be a whole hell of a lot to work through, and it was going to be messy.

From behind steepled hands, the man was about to reply when the statuesque Vulcan woman bent and whispered in his ear. He nodded and then replied. =/\=We’ve been tracking your shuttle Captain Koraia, it’s out of range. We’re preparing away teams of our own to go down. There are a few things down there we would appreciate your help in cleaning up. We intercepted a small Cardassian/Klingon war group on our way here that had been dispatched to end you=/\= He smiled briefly but his eyes were agate hard, =/\= They won’t be troubling you anymore, as for your kidnapped child, our away teams will be briefed to contact you if at any point they come across her =/\=

When the man said “her”, the Vulcan visibly flinched.

=/\= A description of the child and kidnapper would aid us in this =/\= He finished completely unaware of his slip.

=/\= Lemann to Bridge. The shuttle is en route to Rura Penthe’s auxiliary shuttle bay. =/\=

Dr. Lemann (crosspost)

=/\=Acknowledged, Sickbay. Bridge out.=/\=

Barclay’s face came up out of the console like a tsunami. “That’s where the Cyrano is Captain… they’re heading right to Orvos”.

Thought information was coming in at her rather quickly, Ghubari’s face remained impassive as she gazed upon the mirror version of the famous captain. She acknowledged Barcaly with a simple nod, but she really didn’t care if anyone knew that or not. =/\=Koraia to Orvos. Incoming shuttle your way. T’Pon’s baby is aboard. You must stop them,=/\= she said, all the while not breaking gaze with Picard.

The Enterprise captain had made an error and those around him had enunciated it with their reaction. “I never said anything about the baby being a she,” she said flatly. “Give me one good reason I shouldn’t lock phasers and fire on your ship, Captain.
