Lucas returned to the bridge after securing the ‘guests’ in quarters then had a quick shower and change of uniform. He relieved the tactical Ensign before going through the recent ship logs and sensors reading.COS Mackenzie
Shortly after Mackenzies’ arrival both Peter and Kara arrived on the bridge to meet with the Captain. Peter spoke up first “Captain, the rescues are all set up, we can move on.” He started “The injured are in sickbay and I believe Lieutenant Mackenzie has secured the others, all in all, a successful albeit stressful rescue. They were a bit uneasy with the whole thing, you might want to meet with them after they’ve had some time to rest, when we have some news regarding their friends” he turned to the Security Chief “I got the feeling that this Code was their leader but not pleased with us being the ones to rescue them, you concur?” He asked.

Lucas nodded and replied, “His body language and how he was handling his people would definitely lead me to agree. While his authority isn’t absolute, they do rely on him for direction and to speak for the rest. They didn’t like it when I told them to hang tight in the secured quarters, but I promised to update them whenever the injured have an updated prognosis.”

Remaining silent throughout the briefing, Nakuto felt every ounce of tension accumulated during this mission now congeal in the pit of her stomach. Powerless to contain it for a moment longer, the half-Klingon advanced on the Captain.
“Ma’am, so far they have offered us no explanation for their presence on such an unstable and dangerous planet. Or why it fell to us to risk our lives to rescue them. I, for one, do not trust them. And I…”She paused and for a few moments retreated into silence. Nakuto was yet to become acquainted with Ravenfall beyond mere pleasantries and had no concept of the woman’s own experiences and beliefs regarding the Viking. Not to mention the others gathered on the bridge. Would they consider her delusional for voicing her most primal and unnatural fears?
Kara let out a deep and heavy breath and ran a hand through her hair - a habit she often enacted when battling with a particularly torturous thought. Then, moving quickly into the vacant counselor’s seat and leaning in to whisper to the captain, she concluded “…and I do not trust this ship with them either, Ma’am. If you take my meaning?”

Lucas was still at tactical busy analyzing readings and other logs. He was astutely not eavesdropping in any way. Just minding his own business.
