Kami barreled down the hall, picking up speed as she went. She saw, down the hall, three people and one man on the floor. The man on the floor was her captain. And Kami was mad. With a quick movement, she pulled the dagger that was holstered at her side, bit it between her teeth, and continued barreling down the hallway.

She moved quickly but quietly for the speed she was going. The rustle of fabric was about the only sound heard as she continued her stealthy approach down the hall. But it was enough. The assailants heard her coming, the two MACOs turning to look at her as she approached. They drew weapons but Kami continued on.

The assailants watched Kami as she approached, obviously underestimating the sheer force that the young woman carried with her, knife held between her teeth as she ran. The MACOs quickly learned that she was not to be underestimated. With one quick kick off the floor, Kami's muscular legs sent her flying, landing a startling kick to the side of the Maco male's head. She heard a sickening snap as the man's head turned in a direction it shouldn't ever turn.

Kami grabbed the knife out from between her teeth and landed, crouched and armed, her knife held out towards the other two assailants. She now stood between the last two assailants and her captain, who was still on the floor. She didn't even turn to look at Julian but growled, in a deep tone that resonated through her chest:

"Hello. What have we here?"

The MACO female, who had no injuries stood in her spot, she may as well have been a stone, or a statue. The Orion female with the torn uniform top wimpered slightly realizing she had made the biggest mistake, of her soon to end life.

Ayida came down the corridor with a burst of speed, her knife in hand. She knelt down to Julian who simply bared his teeth and stood. The Captain looked to the two opposing women, and took in the fact that Ayida, and a strange woman had come to his...'rescue' no doubt, she'd want something in return.

"Deal with them."

Julian steped back as Ayida steped forward with a sadistic smile on her lips, her eyes as bright as a child with a brand new toy.

"You're mine, cutie pie" Ayida said to the injured Orion woman.

The MACO female made a flick of her wrist and had a baton ready for use. With a snarl, she lunged for Kami.

The orion wanted to give up, but knew she was now forced to fight. She gripped the dagger in her hand, and stabbed at Ayida.

Kami dodged quickly to the side, avoiding the baton by about a half an inch. She heard it whisper past her ear as she bent down and pulled back around, delivering a rather harsh tiger-claw-punch to the woman's stomach. The MACO female grunted and swung at Kami again, this time catching Kami hard on the shoulder with the baton. Kami dropped to one knee and quickly reacted, jamming her knife hard into the MACO female's upper thigh.

A scream of agony was heard down the hall as Kami rose back to her feet and readjusted the knife in her hand. With a swift kick, Kami kicked the feet of the MACO woman out from under her, sending the MACO female hard to the floor. With a purposeful kick, Kami dealt a hard blow to the female's left temple, sending her rolling down the hall about a foot.

The MACO female remained on the ground, trying to decided whether to nurse the wound to her thigh or the headache she had just sustained. With a quick movement, the MACO woman grabbed the knife she was carrying and hurled it towards Kami. The knife grazed past Kami's side, slicing slightly through her uniform and leaving a trench of red across Kami's left ribcage. Kami grunted in some pain but mostly in annoyance.

"Come here!"

Kami yelled at the MACO female and went barreling down the hall, picking up the baton that the MACO female had dropped as she had been stabbed. The knife in Kami's hand slashed quickly at the woman as she tried to get up, catching her across the chest, leaving a deep wound in her upper breastbone. With another kick, Kami sent the woman reeling again, the wind knocked out of her. With a decisive stomp, Kami brought her foot down hard on the MACO female's ribcage, a resounding snap echoing through the corridor as she did so.

"AHHHH!" The MACO female screamed in pain.

With another swift movement, Kami brought her dagger down quickly across the woman's throat, silencing the MACO female for good. To end the job, Kami quickly raised the baton over her head, bringing it down with brute force onto the MACO woman's face. A sickening crack was heard followed by a wet umph as the woman died a rather grossly death.

Kami turned back to look at Julian, some blood splashed up onto her face as she headed back over to him, touching a hand to the wound on her side. She lifted her blood-stained finger to her lips, sucking the blood of quickly before smirking quickly at Julian and then turning to see if the other woman needed assistance with the Orion...

Julian stood back and watched the whole encounter between the four women. He wanted to know who the stranger was; it was a face that he had not seen on the ship before. She must be new. He had not been able to get a good look at her rank epaulets, due to the speed of the entire moment.

Ayida looked to the Orion woman; she paid no mind to what the MACO and Kami were doing, because well, they simply did not matter. Ayida was almost giddy that Julian told the two women to deal with the traitors.

"You're mine, Cutie Pie" She said, as the Orion rushed forwards.

Tracy let out a grunt as she moved to the side, and narrowly missed the blade cutting into her flesh. The Orion woman moved swiftly, ignoring the ripped top she had, which was held by mere threads that Julian�s knife earlier had not cut. The Zipper had been cut into, earlier as well. When she moved, Ayida ducked down below the Orion woman�s arm, and punched her fist into the green skinned woman�s arm.

"Yeaaaaaaaaaoooo" The woman howled in pain.

Julian heard another noise at the door of his quarters and rushed forward, his hand on the grip of his Phase Pistol, in case it was another trap. Genevra was no where to be seen, last he saw of her, was in his quarters. The attackers had locked her in somehow. This could have all been an elaborate trap though, which could have included co operation from Genevra.

Ayida squealed loudly as she heard the Orion woman cry out in pain. It was something she enjoyed, she should try to get on Cranes good side, and get some medical training, so she understood the body better. Well, more like in the art of causing pain. Ayida smiled wickedly towards the Orion woman and noticed the woman was fumbling with her top when ever she and Ayida were not in contact.

Julian moved for his door and looked at the panel to see if he could figure out what the problem was. It may as well have been a warp equation to him, he didn't know technology that well, not recent technology it wasn't his place to know it, or make it work. His place was to order others to know it, and make it work.

Ayida moved forward to the doomed green skinned woman, and grabbed for what ever she could claw at. The woman yelped as she tried to avoid Ayia's grasp only to fall into Ayida's trap, and get slashed in the face. Blood sprayed into Ayidas face from the force of the cut. Ayida managed to suppress a giggle, and slowly slinked around the injured Orion woman.

The woman made a moan of main and tried to kick at Ayida, who had underestimated the space she needed, and caught some of the kick, despite moving out of the way. The Orion woman did another kick towards Ayida, hitting the woman in the chest. Ayida grunted from the kick and stumbled backwards. The Orion woman ran forward, despite her injuries, and almost lack of top, and kicked at Ayida again, knocking her down to the floor.

From where Lee was watching, he let out a small growl, or a snarl, depending on how you wanted to define it, and stuffed the mirror back into his pocket. Lee slid down the hall to give himself some room, to make for appearances. Lee leaned forward slightly, to give himself some momentum.

Ayida grunted as she slammed into the floor, and her knife flew out of her hand. The Orion woman came up from behind and raised her foot to slam it down on the Terran Woman�s back, but Ayida had rolled out of the way a the last second, and then shifted her body quickly and got to a kneeling position. She looked down and made an evil grin, with her eyes lighting up, as she picked up her dagger and with her other hand, picked up another dagger, that was either from the male MACO, or the Andorian.

Ayida slowly stood, and placed her arms into a formation, one over her head, and one under her it, at the waste line. Ayida started to move in a fluid motion, taunting at the Orion woman. The 'game' seemed to be dragging on for some time, but it�s what Ayida liked to do. To her, part of the suffering, the best part, was the targets anticipation of pain, and eventually, death.

Julian had looked over towards the new woman who just made her kill. He noticed how she had blood on her face, which she seemed to have no mind for. It was like...she... thrived for it. He noticed how she touched her wounded side then licked her finger while smirking. She then looked over to the fight between Ayida, and the female Orion crewmember.

Julian heard rapid, and heavy footfalls coming from a different part of a corridor, in fact, it was from a different end where Ayida and the strange female crewwoman came from. Julian looked and saw Lee run to the middle of the intersection, that did not of a third way, Lee could go back, strait, or turn to the Captain, that was it.

Lee looked down the corridor; he seemed to be panting from the sudden jog. Julian narrowed his eyes at the man, not sure of what to think of his sudden...appearance.

"Captain!"

Lee had seen the fight and ran down to the Captain. He raised his rifle at the Orion woman that Ayida was fighting, to which, Julian raised a hand, signaling to not take a shot. Julian stared at the man with contempt for a moment, but motioned to his door.

"They did something to it get it open," he ordered.

Lee nodded in affirmation with his orders and went to the door's control panel and looked it over. Julian looked away from Lee, who was placing his fingers on the controls to do something to the panel.

Ayida shifted her body, and made a few seductive angles. She hoped Julian and Kami was watching, it made the entire thing all the better. Ayida switched her arms, so the opposite ones, were in the opposite place. Ayida smirked and purred slightly.

"Sorry, Cutie Pie," she said, using the name in a taunting manner, it was not the green skinned woman�s name of course, "It's time I ended this, it's been fun"

"Got it" Lee yelled out.

Julian glanced over and saw the doors to his quarters hissed open. No doubt, Genevra would be quite upset.

Ayida let out a squeal of excitement as she moved forward with the daggers flying in various directions. The woman used her arms to try and block the attacks and failed, wailing with each strike of the daggers. She backed into the wall and her eyes widened in fear, knowing she had seconds left to live as Ayida slammed into her, placing one dagger's tip on her throat, and the other, under her jaw.

"Mmm, the fear..."

Ayida leaned in closely and touched the Orion woman�s face with her tongue and leaned back.

"So yummy, if you were Terran, it'd taste all the better."

The Orion woman gasped one last time, as Ayida shoved the blades inside the flesh she had set them against. The green woman started to gag, her arms started to flail about, trying to stop Ayida. Ayida giggled and twisted the blades so she could push one down, and one up, in a cutting motion, to which she did. The dying woman let out a choked wail of pain, and suddenly stopped with a rattle. Ayida stepped back, withdrawing the daggers, and letting the body fall to the floor.

"That was...lovely" Ayida said, in a sadistic manner.

Genevra burst out of Julian's quarters shouting a string of explisatives. The fire in her eyes matching her firey mane. She emerged in the ready-for-battle position. Her beloved dagger in one hand and pistol in the other. When she sees she is too late to joing the killing game, she released a cry of fury. She exhibited her fury on the closest fallen man by kicking the heal of her boot into his face until she was rewarded with the sound of his cracking skull.

Still not satisfied, she pulled her cominication device from her form fitting uniform. "Ward," she bellowed into it. When she didn't get a response, she again kicked the head of the man who's skull she just kicked in. "Ward," she spit again with more fury.

From around the corner she heard a scuffling and her own voice echoing her call. She tore around the corner in a rage. There she found her Ensign bound and gagged. "Pathetic," she scolded the man. The man cowered at his superiors presence. Genevra would have laughed at the site had it not been for her blind fury. She crooked her arm around the mans neck and dragged him to the others; All the while cursing the man for allowing himself to be captured.

When she returned to the exterior of Julian's quarters, she finally aknowledge the others. She threw the unfortunate Ensign at Ayida's feet. "Here," she said looking at the woman. "Play. If you don't want him, give him to Crane," she ordered.

She glances at Julian, angry that he didn't wait for her to check the hallway before stepping into it. He often accused her of being paranoid. She was... but for good reason. Not that she would dream of saying something about it in front of the others.

She turned her attention then to Kami. Genevra, of course, knew exactly who the woman was. She had done a thourough check on the new Commander the instant she was assigned to the ship. She knew right away she would like the woman. She took a step toward her. "Commander," she said with a respectful nod. "Welcome aboard."

Kami turned and looked at Genevra as she made a respectful nod and welcomed the commander.

"Finally, a woman after my own heart and someone who knows who the hell I am!" Kami half-laughed at this and extended her hand to shake Genevra's quickly. "And who might you be? You seem little a fine example of what every officer of this ship should be." A smile crawled across Kami's lips and the darkness seemed to distance itself from her eyes as she spoke to Genevra.

With a half-turn, Kami also regarded Julian. She nodded respectfully to the man and half-bowed to him.

"And if you, sir, are a bit lost after your encounter as to who I am, I am your new first officer, Katayashi Mitsumono."

Kami bowed again to Julian, this time in a deeper and more respectful way. When she rose, she locked eyes with the captain, a smile curling across her lips before turning her attention back to Genevra.

-ISS Hornet, E-Deck, Corridor -
"Corporal Genevra O'Halloran," she replied shaking the woman's hand. "The Captain's personal Guard." Genevra gave her a smile. Or rather, as much of a smile as she ever gave. Finally a woman worth her salt, she silently decided.

[Ziona]

ISS Hornet, E-Deck, Corridor

"Corporal Genevra O'Halloran." Kami repeated to herself, memorizing the name and the woman's face. "The Captain's personal guard. I see you have your hands full with such a weighty position. Such extra security measures are, indeed much needed, in times and places like this." Kami regarded the bodies in the hall. "But, you seem very capable indeed. I commend your position."

A smile crept across Kami's face again as she squared her shoulders, looking the woman up and down. With a quick turn, Kami looked back at the Captain, awaiting his response.

Julian watched the exchange between the two women. He suddenly remembered Kami, from her service record. The whole excitment of being attacked, then Ayida and his new first officer taking combat into their own... hands, made it slip his mind.

"Ah" Julian said, "Of course. Your record does you...no justice, Commander."

Julian looked the woman over, she certainly had...form.

Lee rolled his eyes and shifted, but did not leave. He had not yet been dismissed from the scene. He was furiouse that two of the MACO's tried to take matters into their own hands.

Ayida looked over to Kami and gave a wink then went over to the floor of the dead MACO and crouched next to the body.

"Hmmm....poor, dear..."

Ayida reached out with one of the daggers and cut off the belt on either side of the collaspible baton holster and then took the rest of the belt off of it.

"A nice, new toy..."

[Ziona]

ISS Hornet, E-Deck, Corridor

Kami watched Julian and bowed again as he said that her file did her no justice. Usually, files were incorrect, edited of real content or otherwise changed to augment the views of those hidden within.

"I tend to not trust those... files, sir." She glanced over at the bodies and the woman as she knelt next to one and lifted the baton off of the dead MACO. A smile crossed her lips and she turned back to look at Julian. "I have not yet been introduced to this woman. Isn't that right, woman?" Kami laughed lightly and looked at the woman as she looked at the baton.

With a shift of weight, Kami crossed her arms across her chest and flung her hair out of her eyes, waiting for a response from either the woman or Julian.

[Lord Borg]

ISS Hornet, E-Deck, Corridor

Julian looked over to Ayida, he opened his mouth to speak, but Ayida had beaten him first.

"Lynch" Ayida said, turning her head to look to the woman, "Ayida Lynch, and you are just wonderful" Ayida gave a playful wink and a kiss to the air and then turned to the MACO with the name 'ward' on his name tag.

"You and I, my dear boy, are gonna have some fun"

Julian studied the MACO for a moment, then looked back to Kami. He wondered if she was the one to call him to the bridge. No, it was a voice he had heard before, he just wasn't recalling it.

"Commander, when did you board the ship?"

[Ziona]

ISS Hornet, E-Deck, Corridor

Kami watched the woman now identified as Ayida Lynch. The woman had winked and blew her a kiss in a playful way. With a wink herself, Kami smiled and pursed her lips at Ayida.

"I boarded the ship about fifteen minutes ago." She glanced up and down the corridor. "I found the place empty. So, I ended up finding the bridge which is where you found me, Ayida." With a glance at Julian she smiled at him. "I should have known from the lack of welcoming party that something was up."

With a few strides, Kami went over to Ayida's side, her hands placed gracefully on her hips as she regarded the MACO named Ward who seemingly was beginning to realize his predicament.

"Oh, Ayida. Don't do too much to him." Kami spoke in a rather feminine voice for her display and general attitude. "You never know what sort of... use he might be." A cruel smile curled onto Kami's lips.

With a graceful turn, she walked back over to Julian and retrieved the piece of paper that verified her position as first officer from her breast pocket. She handed it to him and smiled at him.

"Still warm."

Ayida smirked as she looked up to Kami and made a noise in aknowlegement. She looked down to the young MACO male and smiled evily at the man. She simply could not wait to get started on him.

Julian looked at the paper, sure enough, everything seemed to be in...order. He looked up to Kami, who explained when she came on, and the situation surrounding her boarding. The corridors were empty? The bridge was to?

"Commander, I want you and..." Julian looked to Ayida who seemed to be planning what she was going to do with the man. Julian wondered just who else was involved in this entire situation. "Ayida, to find how how called me to the bridge. Then, find out who else is invovlved with this, and do it now"

Julian took a step back after he handed the paper back to Kami, and looked over to Ayida who had stood and waked towards Kami and Julian. He noticed how she took the baton she just stole, and placed it down her shirt, storing it at the point where her uniform top was fastened.

Lee rolled his eyes and looked to Julian.

"Sir, I'd like to take care of him myself" he siad, refering to ward "After all, they already got-"

"Stuff it, Major" Julian took a step towards the man.

"Major, if I learn you had something to do with any of this, I'll hang you myself."

Kami nodded quickly to Julian as she was given her orders. It really shouldn't be that hard a task to find out such little information, what with how things are logged and taken care of on a ship like this.

"Of course, sir." Kami nodded and bowed to Julian before turning to look at Ayida. "It looks like we're partners, woman." She smiled half-heartedly at Ayida, the term woman now becoming rather endearing and joking instead of her original intent of being malicious.

With a turn of her heel, Kami began to walk down the hall, heading towards the turbolift to get back to the bridge. There, she should be able to patch things together and figure out how everything went down before the attack on Julian.

Lieutenant Helena Ravin continued on her way to anywhere, walking aimlessly through the corridors, with a distracted, distant look on her pale face. She would occasionally go through these bouts of depression, sadness, and self-hatred, however, it had been awhile since the last time it had happened. Of all the times for her condition to rear it's ugly head, it had to be now, on the day she was assigned to her new post.

As the young Canadian woman walked the halls, contemplating her situation, she passed by Sickbay, from where she could hear the sounds of horrible, ungodly screams of which Helena had no desire to try and explain. She simply kept on walking, keeping her head high, completely forgetting about the screams. After all, she had heard the Hornet's Chief Medical Officer was a bizarre and sick person. It could be one of his...experiments.

Now, Helena was growing angry. She hated herself and everyone else in the world. She hated people. Everyone. She hated herself. The people in this universe...all of them...so...evil...vile...disturbed. What was wrong with this universe? If only this was only a bad dream. If only her entire life had been a horrible nightmare and she would wake up in her bed, with her parents at her side, in a universe of flowers and rainbows. As if that could happen...

The woman let a heavy sigh escape her lips, as she passed by a male Starfleet engineer, with a smug, superior look on his plump face. The man must have noticed the bit of mascera Helena had forgotten to wipe away, on the side of her face, from when she had...cried. At the sight of the uppity engineer, anger engulfed the normally calm Canadian woman.

"What the hell do you think you're looking at, eh, fat ass? Move it!" Helena snapped at the man, with saliva flying from her mouth, with a fire burning in her eyes. Mood swings were attributed to her condition. Fear filled the hefty engineer, as the man waddled away, down the corridor, as the man had just soiled himself. After the man was out of sight, Helena had let out a heavy sigh, happy to have gotten her anger out. However...the voice returned.

"You feel all high and mighty, now, eh? Act all strong...all powerful. Others may not see through your facade, but, I can. It is paper-thin. Enough with the act. You should just give up. You're pathetic." the voice snarled at her, from within, prompting anger to fill up within the Canadian woman, once more. She stomped her booted foot on the floor, with all of her might, letting a loud groan of anger and frustration, in the process. She needed some kind of medicine to suppress her anger. It was beginning to consume her. At length, she decided to head to Sickbay, to see if the good doctor could give her anything to stop the pain.

Helena reluctantly turned about and started off towards the Sickbay, back from the way she had come. A few moments later, she arrived outside the door to the Sickbay. The screams were silenced, for now. A good sign, in her opinion. She paused, to take a deep breath, before she opened the door, the sliding metallic doors opening with a 'swoosh', revealing the macabre Sickbay. Helena grimaced at the sight, with the smell of death filling her nostrils. She kept her eyes to the floor, as she walked forward, towards the doctor, who looked to be conducting an experiment or something, across the room.

"Doctor." Helena spoke up, pointing out her presence, after she had made her way to the doctor, past the bloody sight of the death chamber known as the Sickbay. "I need some neural suppressants." Helena stated her situation, simply, knowing the medicine she would need, beforehand. After all, her mental condition had been with her ever since she was a child.

Ayida lingered for a second, watching Kami move down the corridor towards the turbolift. Ayida spun and looked to Julian and gave a playful wink.

"See you later, darling"

Ayida took a step forward and looked down to the MACO bound and gagged on the floor. With a slight purr, Ayida spoke to him.

"I will see you later, to."

Ayida then rushed forwards, to catch up with Kami. No way was she going to let the new woman, First Officer or not, get all of the glory and finding out who attacked Julian. Ayida shifted, trying to get comfortible, her choice of a uniform smaller then her actuall size caused problems in combat sometimes, and now she had to shift her belt, her holsters, that sort of thing back into place.

"Smooth moving, girly" Ayida said as she reached the end of the corridor. She pressed the button for the turbolift. "It seems you have some skills"

Julian watched Ayida walk off, and saw how she was shifting as she walked. If it was like always, her smaller uniform made things...uncomforitble after fighting. With a sigh, Julian looked to Lee.

"You, get your men under control. There's still time to find someone else to do your job, Major."

With that, Julian moved over to Ward and pulled him up roughly. Harrison narrowed his eyes at the man and stared strait into his. Julian reached up and slowly removed the gag.

ISS Hornet, Turbolift

Kami arched an eyebrow as she got into the turbolift with the woman, now identified as Ayida. She remained silent a few moments, adjusting her black leather gloves and her weapon holster.

"I was trained." Kami answered. "Not everything I do is conventional, but it works. I guess that's what really counts." A smile crept across Kami's lips. "I guess I can thank my father for that, but that's an entire different story."

Kami clasped her hands behind her back and stood, facing the front of the turbolift. The violence that had caused her blood to curdle earlier had faded and her normal thoughts had returned. She was back to her usual cold, to-the-point, businesslike self. It always happened that way. Fighting brought a sort of heat into her blood and then, once the fighting was over, she returned to normal, standing and sitting and talking like a normal officer. It was as if violence made her become someone different. Fighting made her become something almost sinister. Kami didn't mind though... the reaction was actually... pleasant.

"You did well back there as well, Ayida. I'm surprised you're not part of the ranks." Kami glanced over at Ayida, regarding her lack of insignia. "Are you a... civilian on board? I didn't hear or read anything about there being a civilian."

Kami turned her eyes back on the front of the turbolift, squaring her shoulders and tightening her hands into fists, the leather gloves creaking as she did so. She shifted her weight a little, causing the leather in her boots to creak as well. There was silence for a few moments as Kami waited for an answer.

-ISS Hornet, Sickbay-

The doctor was pleased when the annoying officer left, leaving him to continue on his experiments. He was able to dissect a Cardassian Vole before another officer came in. Lieutenant Ravin entered sickbay and had requested neural suppressants. He looked up at her in surprise, curious as to why she wanted that.

"What for?" He barked, annoyed at the interruption.

[La Forge]

I.S.S Hornet, Sickbay

"What for?" the Chief Medical Officer of the NX-class vessel, the I.S.S. Hornet, Lieutenant Alexander Crane, had asked the young Canadian woman, in response to her request for the neural suppressants, for her mental condition.

Helena groaned in annoyance, at the doctor's words. This sort of response had been exactly what Helena had been dreading. She had no real desire to explain her...situation...to the man. However, the doctor would find out, sooner or later. She would need the medication, again, eventually. She would have to explain her situation, some time.

"Er...Because. I need them." Helena replied, with a hint of anger in her voice, neglecting to explain her reasoning for needing the medication. "I have a...condition. It is all in my medical file. My name is Lieutenant Helena Antoinette Ravin." Helena informed the mysterious doctor.

-ISS Hornet, Sickbay-

The chief medical officer nodded and in a mocking tone said, "Oh I'm sorry....there's been a mistake..."

He gently placed the medical device to the side and placed his hands together in a begging fashion.

"It seems you mixed me up with someone who cares." He said.

Crane walked over to a locked case and entered a code, opening it. He yanked out what she wanted and laid it down in the open stomach of the Cardassian Vole.

"There you go," He said, "Enjoy."

He would enjoy watching her reach into the bloody form and pull out the devices.

[La Forge]

I.S.S. Hornet, Sickbay

Helena sighed in relief, due to the fact the doctor hadn't said anything about her condition. She wouldn't want anyone else to know about the...emotional outbursts she sometimes experienced. It was downright embarassing. However, the doctor's tone was annoying the young Canadian woman. What was wrong with him? However, she quickly realized the answer. Everyone in this world were horrible people. She had only adapted to live in such a cruel world.

"There you go. Enjoy." Lieutenant Crane had stated, after giving her the neural suppressants, by placing them in the open stomach of a Cardassian Vole, which lay, apparently dead, still twitching, on a metal tray. Helena looked from the "doctor" if one could even call the man that, to the medication, which sat in wait inside of the Vole, and back, again, with a look of pure disgust on her face. Eventually, she reached in and pulled out her requested item, with a grimace on her face. After retrieving her medication, she quickly stuffed the neural suppressants into her pocket and turned about to leave. However, she turned back to look at the doctor, in the doorway, before she left.

"You're a sick bastard, you know that, Doctor?" Helena scoffed, rhetorically, with a look of disgust in her eyes, before she spun about on her heel and proceeded to exit the Sickbay, off to her quarters, to use the device, in order to suppress her wild emotions.

-I.S.S. Hornet, Turbolift-

Ayida had let Kami enter the turbolift first, as her rank...well, her rank earned it, besides that fact, Kami had earned a tiny bit of respect from Ayida. However, she would not ever lower her guard around her, she kept her eyes, and claws in everyone and everything on this ship. It helped her cement her position, but for the most part allowed her to watch out for threats againts Julian. Though, the Main reason was so Ayida could check things out from...behind.

Ayida herself then entered the turbolift, and turned fludily to face the front of the turbocar. She leaned forward slowly and pressed the button for the machine to take them to A-Deck. She leaned back and made sure to stand rigid, with her upper back curving slightly to make her chest more noticible.

Ayida listened to Kami speak about her training, and how she went on about how her father had something to dow ith her training. Ayida glanced over when Kami repositioned herself and then looked back to the front, when she realized she still had two daggers in her hands.

Earlier, when she stole the baton, she had set the dagger down, but picked it up again, when she stood. She let out a sigh and let the extra dagger down to the floor with a clatter, and then wiped the blood on her own on her pants. Ayida then placed it back into it's holster when Kami mentioned something about ranks.

Ayida's head snapped to, facing Kami. She narrowed her eyes, and got on the defensive. Just what the hell did that mean?

"What do you mean, Girly? I'm a lieuteant" Ayida said.

Ayida looked to her shoulder and noticed her rank epaulets were gone. Same with the other shoulder. Ayida let out a seething growl.

"Remind me to pay a visit to the ships stores later, Daniel needs a little speaking to about making sure the uniforms keep everything together that they are supposed to."

The door to the turbolift hissed as it slid open, and Ayida looked to Kami.

"Ranks first, Girly" she said, as she motioned for Kami to exit first.

Kami exited without a fuss and smiled to herself over Ayida's threat against the seemingly ship tailor. It was, indeed, a nuisance that rank epaulets might dislodge themselves from time to time. Kami pushed the through from her mind though as she crossed over to a console and, standing with her hands behind her back, quickly spoke up.

"Computer, I need a list and a run system of all the calls made aboard this ship for the past two hours." Kami spoke with an even voice and waited patiently as a series of lists began scrolling on the console before her.

With a look of interest, Kami began to read the lists, touching a screen here and there to organize all the information before her.

"Computer, isolate calls made from the bridge."

The computer did so quickly and a shorter list appeared before Kami. With a studied look, Kami glanced over the information and sighed heavily. With a quick movement of her fingers, Kami isolated the calls down even further.

"Computer, any video feed that we might have of the bridge will be useful."

The computer beeped in compliance and a video feed of the bridge came up on screen as well. Two men entered the bridge, showing the various guards who had been stationed on the bridge. Static took over the screen a few seconds later. Kami frowned deeply.

"Computer, was the video feed interrupted via a manual or automatic shutdown code?"

"Manual."

"Very well." Kami turned to look at Ayida. "Looks like we have some intruders, woman. And from the looks of it, they knew how this ship functions, they knew all the controls, and they aren't the three we killed back there in the hallway."

Ayida looked down to Kami, she studied the woman, it seemed she liked to state the obvious, or the possible obivious. It also had to be clear that it had to be an inside job, for some of it at least, that was the only way for people to work around the security procedures of the ship.

"Very astute" Ayda said.

Ayida looked the video back over, before the inturrption in the video log of the Bridge, to men had entered the bridge. Untill then at least, everyone was where they were supposed to be, someone at Science, someone at communications, tactical, and the Command chair. The guards were all where they were supposed to be.

"It had to be an inside job, no one that is not assigned to this ship wouldn't have some sort of idea in the security procedures of the ship."

Ayida let out a breath of air and leaned forward to the station and pressed a few buttons.

"Computer, scan the file in question. Is the voice imprint on record?"

The computer buzzed and then scanned the file. A few seconds later, the machine chirped and responded in the male voice interface.

"Records indicate, that the voice imprint is that of Crewman T'Sel"

Ayida stood up strait and made a smirk, so, they found the source of the voice.

"Computer, locate Crewman T'Sel"

"Unable to comply, Crewman T'Sel is not on the Hornet"

Ayida narrowed her eyes, she wondered what was going on, and then realizedthe name sounded farmiliar.

"Computer, bring up the personel file on Crewman T'Sel."

The screen went blank for a oment, then flashed the Empire symbol, of a dagger stabbing though the Earth. The image then changed to the file on Crewman T'Sel, a Vulcan female. Ayida leaned forward and read the first few lines.

"Damn, executed a week ago."

Kami narrowed her eyes and thought to herself for a few moments. The silence between the two was thick but Kami's head was full of noises... questions about how this could be possible. Either the file was wrong or something else was up. A frown creased Kami's face as she turned to look at Ayida.

"Computer, do we know the location and time of T'Sel's execution?"

There was a few seconds silence.

"Location unknown. Time unknown."

That wasn't like the Empire to not keep a record of something like this. The frown on Kami's face increased in depth and darkness.

"What's your opinion on this, woman?"
