Audra moved herself into a better position to study the entrance.? Once she arrived
she tried to scan the silhouetted vessel to see if she can get any sort of transponder
or ID that would confirm her suspicions of the vessel's ownership.
Not being in flight the transponder was not turned on.? However, there were a few
markings that were discernable that permitted Audra to make a positive ID.? It was in
fact Ambassador Celana D'amondra's ship.? It occured to her one of the strange
properties of Venasian ships, or at least her ship.? It was somehow tied to her
genetics.? If it she were not the pilot, then the ship could not be flown.?
Interesting that it was still here on Pacifica...
Audra was concerned for the Ambassador's safety.? She picked up her stuff and made her
way back to the team.? "Commanders, Ambassador D'amondra's ship is located at the
docks."
Dais and Sam looked at each other, realizing that it was a significant find, but not
completely realizing it's significance.
"It seems that some Venasian vessels are tied to the pilot's genetic code.? That means
the ship cannot be flown if that person is not at the controls.? It appear's that the
Ambassador's ship is one such ship."
That little bit of fill in hit it home for them.?
"That is important news.? Commander Lasiter, please report that to the Explorer.?
Commander Firehawk make one more quick around, but don't hang around.? Then get back
here.? We need to plan our next step.", Dais answered.
Lasiter took a step or two away to make his call and report.
As Lasiter stepped away, Audra nodded and headed back toward the docking facility.
She made a quick scan of the area both visually and with her tricorder.
Activity was relatively sparce for the main port of the Venasian Government. Even
though their people were scattered around the galaxy, this place should have been a
bit busier. She also noticed the number and configuration of the security forces.
They were military, and they were very well armed. That could be considered unusual.
Her scans also picked up a small number of military craft under the water. There were
hidded from view, but not from scans. They were patroling the harbour under water.
However, her activity was starting to attract attention. A two person patrol was
heading her way, and they were coming from the direction that she needed to go to meet
up with Dais and Lasiter.
