"Remy," Jayna said, interrupting the silence. "Horus has detected the Night Star."
Remy looked at his console and tapped on the controls, bringing up a view of the location on a monitor to his left. "Mister Logan? Time to unleash the Cat of War." He said with a smirk and shifted his gaze to the monitor on his right. Quickly, he tapped the console under the monitor and brought up an image of Lieutenant Sirel. "Alright Lieutenant. Maintain cloak until my signal. With the encryption key given to us by Miss Manx, I believe we can disarm the cloak and disable their weapons with two precise shots. If the Horus's predictions are accurate, and I assure you they usually are, you and your team will have only moments to react before they're defenses come up and block further boarding parties. Make it count and remember our primary is Stryfe. And please don't shoot my Large Cat. Loyal ones are soo hard to find now a days."
"Intel's priority is Stryfe, but mine is our people. Lancaster and Wolfe are coming home today." Kela replied, giving him a harsh look.
"Don't get me wrong, Lieutenant. Lancaster and Wolfe are coming home, but my orders are to ensure Stryfe is brought in. Both Wolfe and Lancaster are officers and are aware of the importance of this mission. So, if you ask them, I am sure they will tell you Stryfe is a priority." Remy replied as he raised a brow slightly. "Admiral Hunter ensured me Wolfe knows what the end game is and so does Lancaster. We all wanted them home, but we also want the mass murderer brought to justice."
Sirel crossed her arms and placed her hand on the console. "I know my job, Lieutenant and that job is bringing those officers back." She tapped on the controls and ended the call.
Remy shook his head and turned his chair back to Logan and Jayna. "This is why I don't play well with others."
"Oh.. that is the reason? I thought it was because you were stubborn and-" Logan said before being interrupted.
"Moving on." Remy said quickly, turning back around. "Take your positions." He tapped the console on the right again as it switched to a tactical set up. "Horus? Transfer tactical controls to right pilot console."
"Granting tactical controls to pilot." Horus replied as the controls were activated.
Logan stood up and looked over to Jayna. "You joining me or do you want to stay behind and keep Remy from breaking something?"
"Tough call. Keep Remy from breaking something, or keep you from getting broken." She pretended to think for a moment. "I'm coming with you."
Logan laughed slightly as he stood up and walked over to the transporter pad area. "Good. At least you wont be keeping me from breaking stuff." He gave a slight smirk and stood onto the pad.
"Admiral Hunter and Burke would still prefer the Night Star back in one piece, Miser Logan. Let's try to keep it that way. Max has plans for that ship and let's ensure he doesn't have to do much work on it." Remy said as he tapped on the tactical console to his right and prepared to fire. "Remember. No casualties. If there are casualties, make sure its not on our side. Some Security have a fire now, fire later, and when you're done firing try to ask a question or two when most of the more people are dead or dying agenda so let's keep professional, please."
Logan chuckled slightly as he nodded and looked over to Jayna. "Naturally."
"People first, ship second," Jayna said, getting up to follow Logan. "Got it."
"I agree, just make sure the Engineers don't need to do much work." Remy replied quickly.
"Killjoy," she muttered, clearly joking.
"Horus? Begin Bad Night program." Remy smirked as he placed his finger over the firing button.
"Bad Night program commencing." Horus replied.
On the screen, Remy watching it like a hawk and awaiting for the Defiant class ship to appear. As he narrowed his eyes slightly, the ship slowly began to fade into view as their cloaking system dropped and forced the ship to appear. "Firing phasers." Remy yelled as tapped on the firing button and sent a strong stream of phaser fire toward the marked locations.
The Night Star took fire and rattled slightly as the crew was taken by surprise by the sudden phaser fire. Remy sent the signal over to the Calypso's Security Team before facing Jayna and Logan. "Go, go. Go now!" He turned back quickly and tapped on the console ahead of him. "And be careful!"
"Transporting." Logan yelled as he tapped on the console as they were both transported away into the Night Star appearing in a tight corridor just opposite the Security team.

"Alright. Let's go." Kela yelled as she nodded to Logan and Jayna before scattering with the team. "Phasers on stun."
Logan removed his phaser and looked to Jayna, giving her a nod. "Let's go. Lead the way to the rendezvous. I'll cover you."
That wasn't as encouraging as it should have been, but Jayna simply nodded. She pulled out her phaser, made sure it was on stun, and headed for the rendezvous. She just hoped they didn't run into anyone on the way.
