Michael listened closely. And when Morin finished, Michael immediately noticed how bad this could be. “And you thought it would be wise to bring it to Oed?” he asked, rhetorically. He sighed as he moved to look outside. As much as he didn’t particularly like Morin Tal, Michael Halloway was not one to refuse someone aide.
“No, I just didn’t know where else to go. When I realized what some of the items were I knew Ylana would be the best person to help me figure it out,” Morin said.
After a minute, the governor turned back to Tal. “We’ll do what we can. What was in the delivery? And where is it now?” he inquired.

“A case of data rods. Some of it is technical plans, the other is a ton of scientific data. I couldn’t make full sense of it, but I think, or rather I feel confident that it’s info for a weapon. There were references to impact and casualty predictions or something.”
Ylana had already heard this much but it still horrified her. “Who is to say that these data rods are the only copies?”
“No one,” Morin replied. “But they are obviously of high importance if they were threatening to kill me over them.”

Michael sighed. Of course something like this would be dumped into his lap. He needed to think though. Starfleet could likely want to know what was going on, and it could be up to Ylana to notify them.
He turned to his wife. “Go ahead and find out what is on these data rods. If it is some sort of weapon, we need to know.”
Ylana nodded. There would be more to say to Michael, but later- now was not the time.
The governor then turned to Morin Tal. “I’m going to have to notify some of my staff. Being prepared is our best option. Is there anything else I need to know, Morin?” He already had in mind to let the Lt. Governor know as well as the Police Chief and starfleet CoS. Science was already informed as of now. Whatever else Morin had to share would dictate the possibility of more needing to know.

Tal looked rather weary at this point. “That’s pretty much it. Do what you have to, but discreetly. If the Syndicate finds out I’m here, then there will be trouble.”
“For us too,” Ylana said, and both men would know there was anger under the polite surface. Ylana glanced briefly at Ensign Anderson. “We’ll have to talk to Longstreet, but it might be good if Elaine provided protection.” Not just for Morin but for anyone else around that might get caught in the cross-fire. “I’ll stay here and investigate the rods, and I don’t mind if Morin stays here since it’s secure, unless you want him elsewhere,” she said to Michael.

Deep down, he wanted to put him isolation. Even his own office was pretty secure. Then again, he did not want to have to deal with any funny business he might conjure up. “Very well,” he stated, though she would know he was not fond of the idea of him being here. “Ensign, keep a very close eye on him. And if you must use force within reason, then by all means do so.”
He then turned to Ylana. “Let me know if you need anything. I’ll be meeting with the Lt. Governor, the police Commissioner, and SF Security. Let me know when you have a lead.”
He then turned to leave, clearly not pleased with the situation at hand.

In his mind, Ylana’s voice sounded. Do what you have to, just remember to trust me and my instincts. We’ve got this. It was more optimistic than perhaps the situation required, but Ylana felt that Michael needed the reminder and nudge. Whatever mess Morin had just landed on their doorstep, she was not stupid or reckless. She was also a damned good scientist. They would figure this all out. She hoped for all their sakes.
