Re: Mission-05-A Family Affair

2 days later
Lela sat beside Gary her little brother sat in her lap. Her
dress uniform pinched her neck. She stared off in the distance
not really seeing the caskets in front of her. Jospeh sat on the
other side he sat as stony and unfeeling as she did. The three
flag drapped caskets Each holding the burned body of her mother,
Jonathan and Jenna. It was almost unbareable but Lela knew she
needed to keep it together for her siblings sake and for her
own. Danny stood behind her his hand on her shoulder offering
his support and a rock for her to cling to. His touch kept her
from losing it. He had held her these past few days as che cried
unable to stop. Four members of her family had been killed that
was including the baby that Jenna had been pregnant with at the
time of her death. Lela looked over at her brother and took his
hand giving him a reassuring squeeze. She gently stroked her
brothers hair the toddler had little idea of what was going on,
only that his mother was never coming home. She looked over at
Gary her adoptive father had been going through hell at losing
his wife but he hadn't shown it. Instead he had thrown himself
into his work and Lela had stepped in to assume the role of
mother figure for her brother. Her brother had even taken to
staying in her and Danny's quarters when Gary wasn't around. As
the ceramony began Lela shifted her attention to her biological
father. He was the commanding officer of the ship now and Danny
the executive officer.
Lela only heard parts of what her father was saying.
"Friends, family, comrades in arms it is with great sorrow and
regret that I stand before you to bid a final fairwell to Fleet
Admiral Kira Phaserman, Vice Admiral Jonathan Frost, and Lt.
Jenna Kilmore and to the daughter that she carried Isabella
Frost."
As each name was read another pang of grief and sarrow tore
through her.
"They died in the line of duty, doing what they could to serve
and protect the Federation. They knew the risks and accepted
them. I once spoke with Kira for it was assumed I was dead. She
said my ceramony was quiet and and depressing and that she
didn't want to go out like that. She wanted to go out being
celerbated for her achivements and for the impact she had on the
lives around her. Kira was loved, by her family, firends, and
those she commanded and I know this, she wouldn't want us to cry
over her she once told me to save my tears for a time they would
really be needed for her death was not one of those times. Kira,
if you can hear me, I want you to know that I love you and I
miss you that we all love and miss you. We, your family on the
Veroto will watch after your children with love and raise them
to know who their mother really was a hero." Baj said looking
around
Tears streamed down her face but a hint of a smile came to her
mouth as she realized her father couldn't have possibly written
that Lela looked around and saw Mara she mouthed "Thank you"
Mara nodded then looked back at Baj.
"Vice Admiral Jonathan Frost, I hadn't known the man long but I
had heard of him through Kira. She always told me how strong he
was and an amazing commander. I saw that in him when I met him.
He was always quick with a smile and a joke but he knew how to
get down to it and do what needed to be done. His recent
promotion to Lima Fleet Chief of Staff afforded him with lots of
authority which he did not take lightly. His position as First
Officer while sometimes boring was always met with determination
and an understanding of human value."
Lela looked over at her brother he betrayed nothing.
"Jenna Kilmore, while she had lived a very long time it seemed
like her life was just starting. Engaged to the man she loved
about to bare them a child and her life and that of her child
was tragicaly cut short." Baj looked over at Joseph. "She was a
very strong woman quick to say what was on her mind and she
didn't care if you liked it or not. Probably the only star fleet
officer I have ever met besides Kira that could get away with
telling off a higher ranking officer and get away with it. I
wish I could have gotten to know Jenna better for she like
Jonathan was family."
As Baj finished up the Marine honor guard stepped up, one by one
they folded the flags. They presented Kira's flag to Gary who
accepted it without really looking at it. Next Jenna and
Jonathan's flags were presented to Jospeh. She knew if he
betrayed no emotion now it would be worse later on she made a
mental note to hunt him down before he could hurt himself or
others.
As they concluded the funeral each body was escorted from the
room. They would not be laid to rest in space, Jonathan and
Jenna would be laid to rest on Earth but her mothers wish had
been to be laid at rest on Qronos. She was after all a warrior
madien of the house of Prime. Lela suspected that her mother had
actually wished to be laid to rest on Earth but had never had
the chance to change her will. Either way it didn't matter her
mother was dead she didn't care where they left the empty shell
of her mothers body.
As everyone filed out Lela looked to Danny, "Make sure Gary's
okay please and take John with you" she said as she watched
Jospeh leave. "I better make sure he doesn't hurt himself or
someone else"
Danny nodded and Lela took off after her brother. He had already
disappered but Lela picked up his scent and followed behind him.
She caught sight of him as he entered his quarters. When she
approched he had sealed the door. Lela frowned "Really Joe like
that's gonna stop me." Lea said to herself. she pried at the
wall panal only to find he had set up a force field. she shook
her head went down the hall a little ways opened an access panal
and shorted out the force field then walked back and opened the
door. "Joseph I know you want to be left alone but..." That's
when Lela saw it. His walls were plastered with schematics, blue
prints, ariel maps that Gary had created and much much more. He
had taken to writing on the walls. "What the hell is this?" Lela
demanded catching sight of him.

ON:
[font=times new roman]Briefing Room Ceremony | U.S.S.
Veroto[/font]
Through out the entire ceremony Joseph had stood at rigid
attention staring out the window behind Baj. He willed his
emotions away, even willing his tail to stay still as he
listened to the eulogy that Baj gave. When his father and
fiancee were mentioned and Baj looked at him, Joseph made eye
contact with him.
Finally with the speaking done, he accepted both flags and gave
a salute, even if it wasn't standard procedure he felt it
necessary. When they had broken up and begun the wake for his
family he slowly broke away from the group and left, still
holding said flags. He made his way through the ship to his
quarters and once inside he finally spoke "Computer, initiate
lockdown, Frost Uniform three seven Charlie Kilo. erect a level
seven forcefield inside the control panel for the door." The
computer acknowledged his order and he heard the snikt of the
door locking and the hum of a forcefield.
With his security measures in place he picked up a PADD and
started pouring over the evidence and intel that he and Gary had
come up with. Barely five minutes in to it the door reopened and
his sister walked in. He growled loudly in anger and hit a
control shutting the doors behind her. He then spoke "Christ I
can't have any privacy can I?"
He let his anger subside and spoke "I don't think our family
are dead Lela... I found the chain with Jenna's engagement ring
on it when we were on the surface." He picked it up off the
table "It had an empathic imprint on it Lela... I think they
were taken away before the place was leveled..."
He then walked over to one of the walls and looked at the
blueprints for the compound "Gary got these for me.. We found
mom and dad's weapons here.." pointing to one of the segmented
sections that he supposed were living quarters. He then added "I
found her necklace and ring here." pointing to a hallway that
led away from the building. He seemed almost obsessive of it as
he spoke "They are alive Lela. They have to be!" a slight manic
look in his eyes as he looked at her.

Lela sighed, "Joseph their bodies were identified! They are
laying in cold storage! They are dead. I wish I was wrong but
they are!" Lela felt tears fall down her face. "Why are you
doing this to yourself? To me? I loved them too and I don't want
them to be dead but it's a god damn fact you are going to drive
yourself mad thinking they are alive!" She walked over and
grabbed a hold of Joseph she wrapped her arms around him and
hugged him to her tightly. I love you, I am your sister and I am
going to prove it to you so you don't drive yourself to
insanity." she took his hand in hers and pulled him towards the
door. "Come on we are going to the cold storage." she led him
out of his quarters and down to where the bodies of their family
lay. She hesitated at the door all of sudden unsure of what she
was doing her resolved slipped a little but then she approached
the casket with her mothers name engraved. She flipped open the
latches and opened the casket. She knew her mothers body had
been burned but she wasn't ready for the sheer impact of it. The
chared body before made her heart ache even more. Outwardly she
showed nothing kept her mind under lock and key she turned to
look at Jospeh then removed the tricorder from her belt. Taking
a deep breath she opened it her hands trembling.

HANGAR BAY | USS VEROTO-A
The Fighters were lined up in neat rows, by squadron. All had
been painted in shades of reds and oranges, to resemble the
Phoenix that was the symbol of Lima Fleet. Now, all had black
bands painted on their wings, and across the Squadron Insignia
on their noses.
Gary entered the hangar, carrying the folded up flag that had
draped Kira's body. The pilots and support teams assembled
around him to support him. He raised the flag over his head.
"This is why we fight, for our families!" He said, climbing the
ladder to his fighter and placing the flag on the front of the
console, the Federation seal facing out through the forward
canopy. "They killed our family. From here on out, it's
personal, people." everyone snapped to and saluted. Gary
returned their salutes. "We will fight to the last man, to the
last ship. Until our phasers burn out and the last ounces of
fuel are burned. We don't stop, we don't quit, and we give no
quarter."

ON:
[font=times new roman]U.S.S. Veroto | Morgue[/font]
Joseph followed behind his sister as she led him to the morgue.
He was quite skeptical of what she was trying to prove. Once
finally inside the morgue he could see Lela hesitating as she
opened up the coffin and started to pull out her tricorder. He
gently reached over and placed his hands on hers. He then spoke
"Lela. Stop. Just stop. I know what I am talking about. They
aren't dead. If you don't believe me just check for yourself."
opening his mind to her.
Lela turned to look at her brother determination set in. She
scanned the body before her and tilted her head to the side.
"There is something wrong with this body" Lela tried tuning her
tricorder and frowned. "Did Abby review the findings of
Starfleet medical?" Lela asked keeping herself closed off.
He furrowed his brow some and brought up the records on the
body on his PADD. He then shook his head and spoke "No. She
didn't review or confirm the findings..." sounding a little
pissed off about it. He looked back at her and spoke "I am
telling you. Mom, Dad.... Jenna... They are alive Lela..."
Lela shook her head, this is so confusing. My tricorder says
its her but then there is something else underlying it." Lela
looked back at Joseph. She took hold of his hand and put her
hand on to the body. The feel of the chard skin made her stomach
twist into a knot but she held firm and opened her mind. At
first there were flashes, but the images were disjointed the
impression messed with. She closed her eyes and focused letting
the information flow through her to her brother as well. Her
mothers face came in to view she was talking. Then there was
another flash, her mother running away. A ship as her mother,
jon, and Jenan boarded then an explosion.
He had tensed up when he touched the body with her. He closed
his eyes and watched the images flow before his eyes. He growled
slightly as his hand stiffened some. He opened his eyes and
looked over at Lela. Joseph wanted so badly to just yell at her
that he was telling her the truth, but he wanted her to see for
her self.
Lela sighed. "Alright, I beileve you. However how are we going
to convince my dads, danny, and Star Fleet command for that
matter?"
Joseph looked at her as she spoke. He grinned slightly "Gary is
already with me on this. How do you think I got the blueprints
and aerial shots of the compound. Danny should be easy to bring
around. As for Star Fleet? Fuck them. I will resign my
commission and steal the Veroto if I need to. But I know they
are alive."
Lela sighed, "I don't think that will be necessary, I will talk
to my dad, show him what I have seen, maybe that will change his
mind." Lela closed the casket then turned to leave. "If they are
alive where are they though? We weren't able to see where they
were going if only I had seen the helm controls I could have
seen the course they had set." Frustration edged in her voice as
she walked with him back to his quarters. "Anything you have
found so far give us any leads?"
Once back in his quarters where he knew that they would not be
over heard Joseph spoke up “I don't have much to go on. I
mean...” He waved around rather dismissively at the walls “This
is all Gary and I have found so far. I know its not enough... I
swear though we find this bastard and I will cut every inch of
his body. He tried to steal my family from me.... My father, our
mother, my fiancee and my child!” He was breathing rather
heavily as he stood there. His face flushed, eyes brighter than
usual.
Lela had learned long ago how to project a calming feeling over
someone she did this now she knew it would need to be with a lot
of energy to calm him down. "Easy Joseph, I am on your side
here. Sit down lets talk this out. What do we know so far about
the leader?"
He slowly sat down, the anger subsiding for the moment. He
sighed softly and spoke “From what I've read his name is
Kernada. He is from first and he despises all non humans. He
hates the offspring of humans and aliens even more.” He stood up
and headed to the portable fridge that he had in the room
grabbing two packs of blood and offering her one.
Lela took the blood gratefully and sunk her fang into it to
drink. "It has to be more then that." she sat there for a moment
drinking. "Have you hacked moms computer? Wait what am I saying,
I'm the only one that can do that." Lela got up and walked over
to Josephs desk. "She would have to send reports back right, I
mean when she could. So there must be something in Starfleet
intelligence files." Lela sat down and pulled up the computer
she set to work by passing the security systems.
He sunk his own fangs in to his pack, draining it dry in
seconds. He sat down on the chair and watched her as she went to
work. He then spoke “There isn't anything on the Veroto's
mainframe I can say that much.. I hacked mom's access codes a
while ago.” He stood up walking over to her and looking over her
shoulder.
"Well I am not looking for moms access right now" she said
having discovered as much herself. "a few more seconds" Lela was
concentrating hard she was good with computers but Starfleets
security was tighter then any she had worked with before the
intelligence department even more so. "Here we go, Krenanda,
leader of the disciples of Achbarri. Mission is to wipe out
Starfleet. Something about having a beef with the way Starfleet
run things. Rumored to be responsible for a multitude of crazy
shit and about 1500 starfleet personnel deaths. Rumored to have
substandered weapons and ship capabilities that he and his thugs
have stolen."
He glared as he looked at the computer screen. He hated the
look of the man as he fist clenched, ripping the fabric of the
seat. He then spoke “He can hate all he wants. Hate won't
protect him from my wrath I will tell you that much.” He stood
up straight and then spoke “Does he have any relatives?
Anything?”
Lela was sifting through more information when it happened.
The screen went blank then an image appeared the face was that
of the man from
the file she was just looking at. “Citizens of the Federation,
allow me to introduce myself…”
he started. “Running a trace on the signal” Lela said working
quickly.
“My name is Prophet Krenada” he smiled warmly; Lela could
feel the charisma exuding off of him. “It seems a few months ago
the Federation
decided to infiltrate my group. This cannot be tolerated. The
Federation is
falling. Everyone knows it, they have failed in their attempts
to stop me.” Krenada
reached behind him and grabbed a woman from behind him. Lela
could see she was
naked and then her mother’s face came in to the screen. Her
mother was naked
her tail and ears had been restored. “This is Fleet Admiral Kira
Phaserman from
the Federation, she and her companions…” he pulled Kira out of
view by her hair
so they could see Jonathan and Jenna. Lela could see Jenna was
in a lot of
pain. She looked to be biting her lip hard and fighting not to
scream. Jonathan
was pushed closed to her speaking softly in her ear they too
were naked. “My
demands are simple, Starfleet will released the people from my
organization and
give them a galaxy class star ship in return I will return my
three prisoners.”
Krenada yanked Kira by the hair again his lips pressed against
Kiras next. “If
not then I shall kill them one by one for all to see. Starting
with this pretty
little thing, now I am not unreasonable I understand it takes
time to arrange these
things you have 3 days. If I haven’t received word from my
people that they
have been released with a ship then she will die and another
will die the next
day then I will wait till this one’s child is born and kill her.
Don’t worry
the child will be loved and cared for by me.” He grinned
wickedly and cut the
transmission.
"Oh god Joseph mom did you see her she is hurt and Jenna I
think shes in labor" Lela burried her face in Joe's chest.
Joseph held his sister close to him for a moment. It was all he
could do to keep from destroying his room. After a few moments
he slowly pulled away from her and spoke, his voice dangerously
low “Follow me..” Heading right out of his door and pushing past
some ensigns, one of whom flew pretty well from the force of him
pushing past. There was nothing more that he wanted right now
than to wreak havoc in the corridor's of the ship. Instead with
Lela in tow he started for the closest turbolift.
Lela followed, she tried to exert her calming influence on him.
She could sense that he was barely holding it together. "Where
are we going?"
He could feel her trying to calm him again but there was too
much for her to try and cover. He then spoke “We are going to
the bridge.” his fists clenched so hard he was starting to draw
blood. He stepped on to the turbolift and waited for her to get
on before ordering for the bridge.
Lela followed when the turbolift opened to the bridge there was
a buzz Lela realized that everyone must have seen what they had.
Krenada had shown on every viewer on the ship. "Dad!" Lela said
as she hurried past Joseph. "She's alive they all are we have
to... we have to save them. I.. I traced the signal at least
partly."
Joseph followed behind his sister and waited for her to finish.
The look in his eye was unmistakable, he wanted blood, he wanted
Krenada. He then spoke when he finished, his voice bordering on
insubordination and ordering him “We need to get him Baj. We
need to get him NOW!” he bellowed out the last word almost by
mistake, the majority of the bridge crew stopping in their
tracks and watching him.

Danny saw the video in his office. He was pissed and ready for a
fight, but part of him knew 1-Delta needed help. Without really
thinking about it, he placed a secure call to Camp Gieger,
Starbase Leatherneck.
"Yes, General?" Said the voice of Lt. Colonel Ben Pierce.
"You see that video?"
"Just caught it.are we moving?"
"Yes. Get your asses out here on the double." Danny ordered.
"Yes sir. One SMU will be there shortly."
As the line was terminated, Danny stood and left for the bridge.
On the way he found Praxis. You call in the hitsquad yet?"
Praxis asked.
"Yeah. They are on their way. I suppose I should tell Baj?"
Danny said, entering the turbolift. "Bridge."
"Probably. I'm sure he'd appreciate knowing you invited 24 type
A killers aboard his ship."
"As MARSOC CG, One SMU's deployments are at my discretion."
Danny said.
Entering the bridge, Danny looked around. "Commodore, as Marine
Special Ops Commander, I've taken the liberty of mobilizing my
special missions unit. I presume of course, we are going to be
kicking in doors and punching people in the face?"

Baj looked between Lela and Joseph, and Danny, taking in the
three distinct and different ways he was just spoken to. He
blinked and took a moment to look at the three of them.
Finally he looked at Danny, "Perfect, alert me as soon they
arrive."
He turned to Lela, "Excellent, give us a heading." He pointed to
the Helm.
Baj turned back to Joseph and looked him in the eye, his voice
hard, "And don't worry, Commander, we will get him."

It took just seven hours for the Atlantis to catch the Veroto.
Atlantis beamed the Special Missions unit aboard, along with
their gear before veering sharply away, headed to cause all
manner of hate and discontent with the Banor.
Danny met the team. "Permission to come aboard?" Colonel Pierce
asked.
"Granted." Danny said, returning Ben's salute. Ben then
introduced his team: Executive Officer First Matriarch K'Shani
Marlow; Operations Officer Captain Nathaniel Thames; Chief
Medical Officer CWO2 David Masters, Master Sergeant Kate
McMillian, Master Sergeant Kalos Algar, Petty Officer 1st Class
Ashlie Adams and Staff Sergeant John Roberts were the key
players.
Danny inspected the troops, then headed to the bridge. Ben
circled his troops. "We know why we're here. This one's for
family." He said, locking eyes with John Roberts for a moment,
"When we go in, we're expected to punch some people in the face.
Let's make sure we break noses and crack teeth."
Danny reported to the bridge to announce the arrival of 1SMU. He
felt better having the Operators here. This kind of op was their
bread and butter.
