Timeline   SD8: 08:50hrs
Gabriel reviewed the PADD that possessed the information he had requested from Starfleet Operations for the sector. The pirate situation had remained consistent for the past several days. Fortunately, the Captain's vessel was not going through any of the troubled areas. The last thing he needed was for a major Starfleet transport to be attacked and possibly destroyed on his watch.

However, he also recognized that something had to be done with the Cardassian's Bar on the promenade. He knew that nothing would turn up inside the bar, at least anything that would be worth the effort and resources expended to shut down the establishment. However, he knew that the owner still had some significance remaining.

*COMM* Gabriel to Wallace, we are going to have a brief conference with Ms. Kerren. I also want you to contact Ms. Kaia and have her join us with Mr. Darson in the Marine Complex, Gabriel out." he said as he closed his comm unit and stood to grab his jacket as he proceeded out of the door.

Jarred Just rolled his eyes when he got the message, he'd already gotten three other angry messages from other command staff when he'd been summoned by the commander of the marine forces. Jarred was distracted enough with some personal news that this was the last thing on his mind.

Gabriel exited the turbo lift and walked forward towards the Marine that was standing guard. "I'm here to speak to Darson." He said directly.

Jarred had caught up with the marines escorting Kaia, the news he'd gotten earlier weighed on his mind so this wasn't exactly permitting him to think about anything else, and he'd gotten more news his services might be needed away from the station so this was even more of a waste for him, one of the marines said they found schematics for the drive in Kaia's computer, but no hardware, ~Damn she must have already installed the drive into her ship. ~ Jarred was furious.

"Tell him Lieutenant Gabriel is here to speak to him and a particular person that his department is holding for me." He said as he noticed Mr. Wallace and Ms. Kaia walking down the hall towards their location. "Additionally, tell him that I wish to have a conference with him and several individuals concerning the next phase in my investigation." He added as he turned to greet the two.

"Thank you for joining us, today." He said to the woman as he noticed the Marine escort. He groaned inwardly, he knew that he would have to catch a lot of flak from Darson from using his department for transporting a civilian that wasn't in custody.

"I apologize, Ms. Kaia, for the escort-service. I'm sure we all can have a civilized conversation without the presence of security." He said as he signaled for the Marines to dispatch or go train or do whatever it was that Marines did during the day.

Here was finally a face she remembered, if perhaps not fondly. "Civility? In Federation space? I think you're aware that my personal business is in xeno-archaeology. And that hasn't been great, seeing as how slow it's been. If you'll recall I've been reduced to running errands for you feds since before the Boaoran attack. Errands for which now I'm apparently being arrested. Guess I've learned what happens when you try to help the federation." she said ruefully.

A hulking Klingon wearing the unmistakable rank insignia of Sergeant Major, exited the complex, and glowered down at Lt. Gabriel, “Lieutenant,” He growled, “I am First Sergeant Rajuc. Major Darson is expecting you, and is waiting for you in the MTAC…I am to escort you and your...cohorts...there immediately. Please follow me.”
