[Turkana IV]

Following his conversation with Madam Onasi he headed into the town. He took a seat at a local caf on the main street and ordered some coffee. He leaned back in the seat and began examining the information on the PADD. When she had left her office briefly he had used that time to extract information from her computer.

"Tovan to Captain York..." Delon said as he pressed his communication badge.

"York here. What can I do for you, Lieutenant?"

"I have some information concerning the complex that we raided earlier." Delon responded. He grabbed his cup of coffee and took a sip. He wanted to have the go-ahead from the Captain before he continued on.

"Do you need to meet in person?" she asked.

"I am still on the planet at the moment, you could join me for a coffee." Delon responded.

"Give me the coordinates and I'll be down momentarily," she said, heading for the transporter room.

Delon transmitted the coordinates to his location directly to the transporter room. "Coordinates transmitted to the transporter room Captain."

"Thank you. York out."

Ten minutes later, Sam materialized outside the pub.

She found the Lieutenant easily and sat down at the table. "Hi. What did you learn?"


"Alliance Security Force discovered a body in a nearby river. After they had run an autopsy they were able to identify the body. It had belonged to a man by the name of Saytin Eros, the chairman of Eros Industries. The complex where we found you Captain belongs to him or at least it did."

"His body was discovered about a week ago. Alliance Security Force believed that the Coalition was responsible for the murder of Mr. Eros so they began to stake out the complex. It was their belief that Coalition could be using the complex as a base of operation however soon they discovered that it wasn't the Coalition who was responsible for the murder but instead a group of mercenaries."

"The problem was that they couldn't do anything about it as it was out of their jurisdiction. So they continued to watch the complex. They were there when we moved in on the complex. They watched our every move. But that's not the important part."

"The Coalition was busy dealing with their own political uprising that they weren't paying any attention to what was going on in this area. The Alliance Security Force agents used this opportunity to move into the complex and retrieve at minimum three bodies after we left."

"Three bodies? The three civilians?" Sam asked.

"The intelligence files refer to them as the mercenaries. There was also map in the files that showed from which location each body was retrieved. After examining the map two bodies are the guards that were guarding the outside perimeter of the complex and a third body was picked up from the road leading up to the complex." Delon explained.

That information went a long way towards clearing Corporal Guntold. "What else did you learn?"

"It seems that they will be moving the bodies this evening to a more secure location in the mountain somewhere. If we are to get our hands on a body to run an autopsy this would be our only chance because once they get the bodies into the facility it would be impossible for us to do so. There is a natural shielding surrounding the facility from the soil around it and they have also placed shields in place. We can't even scan inside of it."

"This means that they won't be able to beam in the bodies either so they will be transporter to this facility via vehicles which will be guarded heavily but we don't really have to even get close to them we can simply beam the body away. They won't even know what happened and even if they figure out it was us who took the body they won't launch a protest. This is all Black Ops. They don't want Coalition to know what they have done so if they come after us it would become public and they won't risk that."

"Go ahead. We need one of the bodies -- both if we can get them. I wish we could get a look inside that facility, but it's not worth the risk at this time," Sam sighed.

Tovan nodded. "I will gather a team and brief them on what needs to be done as soon as I return to the Calypso."

"Excellent," Sam said, standing. "I'll leave you to enjoy your drink. Thank you, Lieutenant."

"Thank you, Captain. Have a good day."
