Mission: Smoke and Mirrors
Location: Bridge, USS Victory

Elijah stepped out of the Ready Room and onto the Bridge of the Bridge, it had been a wild few days on the Victory with the Andrasi situation. The Captain took a glance to OPS. "Cor how have our power transfers worked out? All set?"

To be honest, the Thux almost looked out of place at the Ops panel. He would feel more at home halfway across the bridge at the Engineering panel, or maybe even just in Engineering proper... but he was told to man the Ops panel, and so he'd suck it up. Besides, it wasn't all bad here. "Power transfers complete and stable, auxiliary power cells charged and set. Without jinxing it, I'd say this is about as ready as we're going to get given our time frame."

Elijah nodded. "Mister Kilbane you're a qualified Pilot correct?"

"Yes Sir" Kevin replied "was there something you required me to do for you?"

"I might need you in the Shuttlebay for this one." Elijah nodded.

"Yes Sir, I'll get down there straight away" Kevin replied, nodding to Karadis to take his place at Tactical.

Bertrand stepped to the XO station, "Bridge to Medical. We need the Andrassi patients moved to Hangar Bay 3, and loaded into the Torrens and the Murray. If we have room, you can send one medic with each, but it will be a rough ride. We are sending them all home."

-Sickbay-

Down in sickbay, Sara was busy catching up on the events that had happened on the ship with the patients that were sent up to the ship. Most of them had shown no sign of aggressive tendencies like those on the planet, however a few had to be restrained and sedated after attacking the medical staff.

Hearing the call from the XO over the intercom, Sara sighed as she tapped her combadge, "Understood Commander, the majority of my patients are safe to move without any medical assistance, however I would like to ask for a separate shuttle craft for those patients that have presented with aggressive symptoms"

"Understood, Doctor. I will arrange a security detail for that shuttle as well."

Elijah interjected. "Doing that increases our chances of being exposed sooner rather than later, question is do we risk the shuttles safety for personal safety?"

Bertrand grimaced, "The age old balance of Tactical vs Security, sir. Up to your CTO, I'd say."

Kevin stopped just short of entering the turbolift and offered a suggestion to his CO "I can pilot the shuttlecraft for the patients who have shown aggressive tendencies if it helps Sir, and I can vouch that Karadis can handle the Security side onboard?"

"Go for it Lieutenant." Elijah commented.

Ensign Keller came onto the Bridge flanked by Warrant Officer Kilvarn and logged onto the Secondary Comsole to the Aft of Tactical. "Diplomatic Packages have been loaded onto the Shuttles with the Andrasi Sir, just in case they have a change of heart and want to go through the proper channels."

Felix nodded towards Kilbane and took over at Tactical in place of the Lieutenant. "Captain all Tactical Systems are standing by, Shield modifications are ready on your order."

Elijah nodded. "Well Number One it would appear that the ball is in our court so to speak, don't you agree?"

Bertrand just nodded, "Stand by all stations for insertion maneuvers. Helm bring us to half Impulse pass over the colony. Shields up, Shuttles stand by."
