Episode Four: The Covenant Part 1

[Lt Andrew Figueroa]

The meeting was a disaster in the Lieutenant's eyes. All it accomplished was to heighten an all ready tense situation. The Chief and Hunter seem to have a personal grudge that he could not phantom. He was not informed officially of their back-story so only knew rumors. They were already at each others neck and we have a bigger problem outside. Both Andrew and Makoto walked together towards the turbolift. "Deck Seven." As the doors closed he spoke up once again. "I don't like this... First, Faith goes wild second, we have an Alien Armada outside with unknown intentions and last but not least we have bridge officers at each others throats. This is just ridicules." He looked up to Makoto, "Are all Staff Meetings like this?"

[1st Lieutenant Kerak]

Kerak nodded as he looked down at Gordon with Faith.
:-*Understood Sir. I have just informed the Captain that Doctor Nomonor is secure. She seems....content. Kerak out.
He turned to Gordon.
"Sir. We need to get ready for possible incursion."

[Captain Valdora]

Valdora made his way into the ready room with a stern face. He did not speak as passed his bridge officers at work. He would leave preparations in the first officers hands. As the doors of the ready room closed he Lent back on them and sighed.
'This is not the command I saw myself in.'
He walked around behind his desk, sat and waited. He tried to pass the time by turning to other matters.
"Doctor Foley" he said opening a com link "please take care of Doctor Nomonor and try and find out what has done this to her please. Valdora out."
He closed the channel and sat back, ready to activate some Valen Orchestral music when his com line beeped.
"Its him sir" came Durn's voice.
Valdora sat forward and pressed the channel open. Malak appeared on the computer screen before him.
"I'm here."
"I am preparing to depart my ship for yours via shuttle. Please be ready to receive me. I will have our demands with me" Malak said and closed the channel.
"No problem" Valdora muttered through clenched teeth, complete with his fangs.
He then opened a com line to Jack Hunter.
"Mr. Hunter prepare to receive our guest in shuttle bay 2. Bring him to my ready room."

Outside the shape of the black, knife like design shuttle grew larger. Two fighters moved along side in escort, the sounds of their engines like those heard on motor tracks. The shuttle moved away from the fighters which set to a course surrounding the Enterprise.
The alien shuttle touched down on the deck of shuttle bay two. Com traffic is heard as flight crews rush around it to secure the landing. With a whirling sound the ramp drops and Rançonner Malak of the Second Order emerged with two very alien, very fierce looking guards. He descends and walked with a stride over to Hunter and his two other security officers.
"Take me to your Captain" Malak said with his deep, based voice.

[Major Randall Gordon]

"Roger that. Take your teams to the armory and add to your loadouts if you need to. My team will do the same. Tag the Ensign here for transport to sickbay, with a report of what happened and a recommendation from her Marine superior officer to not place her in confinement or stasis again."

"My team, on me." the team of four moved out to the armory.

[Doctor Faith Nomonor]

She seemed to when at the prospect of being left alone... but before she was tagged she did manage to snag her comm badge back, holding it in a mine fashion before she was made to shimmer away to sickbay, peeking curiously at her new surroundings.

[Lt. Hikari Makoto]

"They can be, but this was one of the worst I've been in." she said as they stood in the turbolift. "As far as the situation at hand is concerned, it is very ridiculous, but what can we do? The reason why those two are at each other's necks is because Jack took out someone important to the Chief, and the blood between them is very bad." she said in a serious tone.

[Lt Andrew Figueroa]

"I just hope it ends peacefully for all our sakes." He said truly hoping for the best. It was difficult to come over one's demons, he still had his own to battle. "It seems all we can do is focus on the task at hand. Our best bet is the Computer Core, hopefully we can improve our system defenses before it is to late."

[Lt. Hikari Makoto]

"Let's do that." she said, as the turbolift continued, before turning to him. "We've only known each other a short time, yet we've learned so much."

[Lt Andrew Figueroa]

He couldn't help but smile. Indeed his short time on board he began to know the ship and her crew but more specifically Hikari. Their time together has been a weird one. Their first encounter with each other was an accident. He lost his way looking for his boss; Jade and instead meet up with Makoto-san. From then on he couldn't help but be with her. The doors opened to Deck Seven they made their way out but not before Andrew made one last comment. "Yet, there still so much we can learn." They made their way to the Computer Core where Enterprise was waiting for them.

[John]

"Take whatever console you wish commander, they are all the same. This CIC is fairly advanced. Holo emitters, full tactical links, everything you could want. Our job is to cordinate everyone, from here thats easy. Enterprise helps aswell." Shepard replies to Kull.

[Lt Jack Hunter]

Jack nods and turns around Leading Malak into the turbolift. The doors close. "Bridge" He said as the turbolift began moving. Jack was cautious, he had his hand on his phaser ready to go incase anything went down. The turbolift doors open and jack steps out followed by malak. They make their way down to the captains ready room and jack chimes the door.

[Captain Valdora]

Valdora stands
"Come."
The Captains as the doors pull back and Malak enters the room. His guards stood either side of the door outside on the bridge. Valdora kept his eyes on Malak as he spoke to Hunter.
"You may go Lieutenant. Keep your eye on our guests."

[Lt Jack Hunter]

"Aye Sir" Jack said as he walked out of the captains ready room and onto the bridge.

[Commander Micheal Logan]

Logan walks onto the bridge and sits down in the command chair. "Tactical report." He said as he sat back in the chair.

[Lt Sarah Hunter]

Sarah taps her console. "Well sir Weapons and Shields are standing by and ready to go."
