Luke silently nodded. Glad deep down inside that hsi plan had been rejected. He shuddered at the thought of ever having to go near a slave compound.
As he watched J'Leera, Tiffani and Wood leave he slowly rose from the seat he was in. He forced a smile to J'Leera as she left. She smiled back and then walked through the doors.
"Well." Felix started. "Perhaps we should amke a move. We have a lot of ship to cover in our search."
"Yes sir." Buster said.
Luke walked over to the small replicator and accessed the memory.
"Commander, the list of weapons here is extensive. I believe we should each equip ourselves with one item...just incase."
"Good idea Mr. Dowding. I will use my security code to allow us use of the weapons." Felix replied.
As Commander Savali punched in the code, Luke had a thought.
"Er...Sir" He said.
"Yes, Mr. Dowding." Savali replied.
"I believe it will be a bit suspicious if a miner is carrying a weapon. After all I am only a slave in this universe." Luke said.
"Agreed. Perhaps you could get a plasma torch or some other piece of equipment that could be used as a weapon if need be." Buster said.
"Yes. I agree." Felix changed the amount of phasers from three to two and ordered a dilithium cutter from the ships databanks.
"Although Luke, do not use this unless you have to. There is no stun setting on this." Buster said.
"Buster, there are no stun settings on any of the weapons." Felix said. "We definately have crossed over to a babaric place. He makes me shudder to even think that people could live like this."
"Do not forgot sir, that early Earth and many other pre-warp cultures were babaric once. An old Earth rifle didnt have a stun setting either." Luke said.
"Yes, you have a point there Lt. But the difference is we have evolved beyond that primitive need for blood and violence but these people are stuck like this. " Felix said.
Luke nodded whilst strapping the dilithium cutter to his belt making sure it was firmly off, he did not want any missing limbs.
As the three were just about to leave an alarm went off.
=*\/*= Security Alert. Weapons accessed on Deck .... Send security details immediately. =*\/*=
"Buster do something!" Fleix yelled. " You're the Assault Troops Leader!"
"Erm...Erm...Mathijs Buster: Assault Troops Leader 564783!" Buster yelled over the din of the sirens wailing.
=*\/*= Security Alert disabled. Security Details cancelled, Assault Troops Leader Mathijs Buster has calrified access of wepaons. =*\/*=
"That was close." Luke said.
"Too close" Buster agreed.
"Perhaps we should get going, before we set anymore alarms off." Felix said.

Buster, Luke and Savali walked through the corridors. It was as much walking as it was running. They slowed down whenever another mirror crewmember walked by, because they didn't want to raise any more suspicion than they had already raised. The people they crossed looked at the three in a very strange way.
Buster and the others all knew that they were doing something wrong, but they had no idea what. It could be that it was a strange sight to see a slave miner with the assault troops leader and an imperial supervisor...
"Assault Troops Leader" Buster thought to himself. "That doesn't sound like me at all..." He looked at himself. He was wearing some strange kind of uniform. It looked more like an armor really. It was either very light or very comfortable. When he felt the armor with his hands it seemed that he was lots and lots of stronger in this universe. Although he didn't know if that was a good thing or not. He also found it strange that nobody seemed to notice the changes at first. He remembered when he first entered the Tigershark again with J'Leera. J'Leera had looked the same, he was sure of that. And the strange crewmember had attacked him... Surely you wouldn't attack an Assault Troops Leader?
He also wondered what the mirror Buster was doing at the moment. He couldn't be up to much good, but if he looked like Buster did before in the real universe, he couldn't do much harm anyway. At least that is what Buster hoped.
"Do we have any idea where to begin our search?" Luke asked.
"The captain's quarters would be a logical place to begin" Buster anwered. "I believe that is where we are headed now".
"Indeed, although I do hope that the captain isn't in trouble. If the captain's quarters is guarded he may have been arrested". Felix said. "He doesn't hold the rank of captain anymore, that's for sure".
"We should have looked that up, who knows what rank he holds now?" Buster said. "Hmm, now that I think off it, we don't even know where the captain's quarters are... They could have been moved? Perhaps we should look it up on one of the consoles...?"
"No" Savali said. "We have triggered enough alarms for one day. I think It's the best if we move on..."
After a short while they reached the place where the captains quarters were supposed to be. They couldn't see any guards around.
"Any idea on how to do this? Just open the door and hope for the best?" Buster asked.

''Activate the antimaterialaticalvisiondevice,'' Danny ordered.
The crewman responsible for the task swiftly entered a few commands, and the lights of the navigational observatory flickered.
''Did it work?'' Lohnen asked.
''Yes sir!'' the crewman said as he stood up.
Danny looked at Thirteen with a what-a-dork-face, as the crewman took his position again.
''Put the Cardassian marauders on screen, prelieutenant,'' Thirteen ordered.
''Understood sir,'' came the reply.
The screen showed three large ships which flew next to one another, appearantly following a guarding-pattern.
''We'll observe the ships from here untill we have identified their service-pattern,'' Danny said.
Thirteen leaned over to Danny and said: ''I will make a round through the ship and see is she is still a familiar sight, I will also see if I can find mister Savali and the rest. Will you manage here?''
''I will, otherwise I'll call you,'' Danny said.
''I will be making my round through the ship now, general,'' Thirteen announced openly while standing up.
''Agreed mister McVaye,'' Danny said, playing along.
Thirteen made his way to the lift, and entered, the navigational observatory crew scattered away when he passed them, as if they feared him.
The lift doors closed after Thirteen had entered his destination, and the lift made its way down.
On his stroll through the ISS Tigershark he ran into Buster, Luke and Savali.
''Everything alright?'' Thirteen asked?
''We're just figuring out how we open this door without triggering any alarms,'' Luke notified.
''That is easy,'' Thirteen said, and smiled.
''Computer open these doors, First Commander Daniel Felix McVaye, overridecode beta-gamma-12-14-69,'' Thirteen said.
*Overridecode accepted, opening doors,* a bizar sounding computervoice said.
The doors slid open. Thirteen winked at Luke, and nodded at Buster and Savali, as he walked along the corridor.
Savali called after him: ''Don't start liking your position too much!''
Thirteen looked back and smiled, receiving an equal smiling face from Savali, before he went around a corner.
He came past a small room with a few battered chairs, and three crewmembers fighting over the controlpanel of an equally battered device.
''H hm,'' Thirteen said as he stopped and entered the room.
The crewmen looked up with annoyed faces, which grew pale when they found out it was their SCO that had just produced the sound.
''Errr, sir... Errr... Well...,'' one of them begun.
''I guess that means that the three of you will not be using the food replication services of this ship for the next two days,'' Thirteen said with a stern face.
He looked at the crewmember's ID-numbers.
''Computer restrict crewmembers 48-B, 26-J and 37-F from using any food dispensing facilities aboard this ship for exactly 48 hours,'' Thirteen said, looking down on the three crewmembers that seemed to shrink.
He smiled nicely at them when he left the three, walking out of the room, continueing his exploration of the ISS Tigershark.
=*\/*= Mister McVaye, report to the navigational observatory. =*\/*=
=*\/*= Understood sir general. =*\/*=
Thirteen followed the same way back to the navigational observatory, also passing by the room Buster, Luke and Savali had wanted to enter earlier.
Arriving at the navigational observatory Thirteen took his seat, and Danny leaned forward.
''What did you find?'' he asked.
''Not much yet,'' Thirteen said. He felt strange. Sad, somehow.
''In any case,'' Danny continued at a normal tone, ''the Cardassian ships seem to have altered their course, and are making their way to earth. Have you got any suggestions on what to do?''
''I... do not now sir,'' Thirteen said.
''Are you alright mister McVaye?'' Danny asked, ''you look a bit pale.''
''I feel a little sick sir, that is all, I will manage,'' Thirteen replied, ''I think we should just let the Cardassians go, we have got more important things on our mind.''
''Hmmm, indeed, alright,'' Danny said, ''I'll be in my office considering our next step, you have the br... observatory mister McVaye.''
''Errr sir, if you do not mind, I will go to my quarters and get some rest, I feel not very well, and pretty tired,'' Thirteen said.
''Alright, permission granted,'' Danny said, ''you, second lieutenant, you have the observatory, don't destroy anything, and alert me when the slightest thing happens. And one more thing... Do not take place in my chair.
Danny smiled, and he entered the CO's office, leaving the puzzled looking second lieutenant in charge.
Thirteen arrived at his quarters, and dropped himself on his bed, as tears began forming rivers from his eyes. What is wrong with me, he thought, what is wrong with me.

Off: Understood Mr. Lohnen
On:
After Thirteen opened the doors for them as they had not known if an alarm would go of if any of them tried using their access codes well at least Felix and Buster as Dowding probably had no access whatsoever to the ship systems in this realm.
They entered the room. It looked different from K’Vada’s room on their TS but this was probably not his cabin anyway Felix thought as they were walking through it. There was no sign of K’Vada anywhere inside.
"Mr. Buster, Dowding, do we have any tricoders in this realm? We don’t have much of a chance to find the captain if we don’t have any tricoders and asking the main computer , we don’t even know is his name is the same nor what his job is , he could be a slave , or a miner , or even a terrorist for wall we know.", he said
“Well sir they probably have some scanners here “, Dowding said as he went to a replicators
“Sir , we need your access codes”, Dowding said
“No actually we better use the ones from mr. Buster”, Felix said as he turned to Buster
Buster went over to the replicators and entered his codes, after that Dowding scanned through the replicator’s databank to find some scanners and after he was done he replicated 2.
Buster and Felix took the scanners and scanned around the room ,
“Well he definitely was here”, Buster said, “but he is not anymore.”
“Im picking up some traces of disruptor fire in this room”, Felix said
“Someone definitely fired here, who knows what happened to the captain, perhaps security would know more , mr. Buster you call hem and ask about what occurred in cabin …”, he said as he went to the door to read the number , “cabin 20”, he finished, “But be strict when talking to them “, Felix said
<Buster>
Felix saw that Dowding was scanning around while Buster was talking to security.
“Have you detected anything new, Mr. Dowding?”
Just then a group of 2 crewmen entered the quarters.

Thirteen opened his eyes, and held his hands in front of them, blocking the bright light.
He heard voices, but couldn't recognize anyone of them.
He tried to move, but he couldn't he was strapped onto some sort of table. It wasn't very comfortable.
He turned his head, which he barely managed, and saw stripes of light that had burnt into his field of vision blur whatever he should have been able to see.
All of a sudden he felt a sting in his neck, and a shadow came over his face.
A pale face stared at him. There was something strange about the sight. The face was scarred, and carried strangly coloured spots.
Also black tubes came out of the right part of his head, only to dig in at another place close by.
Where his left eye should have been was now a with sunglass-glass covered metal tube, out of which a bright red laser shoon.
The red light stung Thirteen's eye, which he closed.
His neck began hurting even worse. At a given moment Thirteen started screeming, and himself rising rapidly.
He closed his mouth and discovered that he sat upright in his bed.
He looked around and found out that he was greeted by his murky quarters.
He rubbed his neck at the place at which it had stung. Thirteen felt no pain or anything strange at that spot.
It took a while before Thirteen began realizing what had just happend. After thinking for a while he thought the human description 'nightmare' would be a suitable synonime for what he had just experienced.
He had never had any capabilities of dreaming when he was a Borg, but now he was human he could.
He remembered how he had fallen asleep last night, or whatever period of time of the day it was at the moment, he couldn't recall. He had felt sad, yet didn't know why.
He was surprised to find himself getting a cup of coffee from a replicator resembling device.
The thought of the emotion he had experienced before he went to sleep stayed on his mind while he slowly drained his cup. He mainly thought why, why had he felt that way.
He couldn't figure it out, and decided to make his way to the navigational observatory.
He greeted Danny who proudly sat in the CO's chair, and took place in his own.
''Are you alright?'' Danny asked Thirteen, leaning forward so the rest of the crew could not hear what was spoken about.
''I will manage,'' Thirteen sighed, ''I had a nightmare last night, and I started crying right before I fell asleep. I am not aquinted with emotions and dreams, and neither to sleeping. It will take quite some getting used to.''
''Let's hope that won't be neccersary,'' Danny said, ''I plan on leaving this place ASAP.''
Thirteen smiled faintly, and sat back again. He'd see how the day was to tun out.

When they arrived at the transporter room, Wood, Tiffani and J’Leera went straight up to the security guard who stood guarding the room. J’Leera put her hand in her pocket and felt something hard. She pulled it out as she walked through the door and saw that it was a data PADD with an interesting authorization code on it.
The guard looked rather annoyed at the sight of them coming in, but then calmed down when he apparently recognized Tiffani, who was now the chief engineer. His eyes narrowed suspiciously when he saw J’Leera and Wood though. “Is something wrong?” he asked, not very pleasantly.
“We need to calibrate the Heisenberg compensators,” Tiffani replied to the security guard’s question, trying to remain bold. However, she could sense that the guard meant business and would hurt her if he felt it were necessary.
“And?” the guard grumbled.
J’Leera stepped forward and glared at him. “Are you questioning the chief engineer about what should be fixed and what shouldn’t?” she snapped.
“No,” the guard answered. “You must have clearance from the proper authorities…”
“You want clearance?” she asked and pulled a PADD out of her pocket, handing it to him. “As you can see, the proper authorization is on this PADD complete with the Captain’s code.” She took it back after the guard had read over it. “I must also ask you to please exit the room, this is a Silver Code 682.”
The guard nodded and walked out the door without another word. Wood and Tiffani looked over at her in surprise.
“What was that?” Wood spoke up first.
J’Leera smiled, “I’m not exactly sure. It’s for an upcoming mission that involves the transporter room. I found this data PADD in my pocket.”
“What else is on it?” Tiffani wanted to know. “We may need to know about this upcoming mission that you mentioned.”
She looked at it again, skimming over the PADD. It didn’t give too much detail about what was going on, but it appeared to be a highly classified mission between Fern and the CO.
“Well, when we see the Commander, we’ll show him this. Until then, we’d better get started on the transporter.”
“Agreed,” J’Leera said and put the PADD away.

Danny and Thirteen were still in the Navigational Observatory. Apart from the fact that everyone had to be treated so severely, Danny kind of liked his temporary Command Position. A Starship Command was his life-long ambition, but it was still years ahead of him, since he was only a First Lieutenant. Anyway, there was no time dreaming about it because the Observatory door chimed and opened.
In came a security guard, looking angry and rejected. Danny and Thirteen turned their heads and looked at him. When the guard saw his two superiors, he immediately snapped to attention. "Sir, Security Guard 25-D reporting sir. There is some unusual activity down in Engineering that you should know of sir". Danny lifted his eyebrow and smiled sneeringly. "Really? Get over here in front of my chair, I want to look you in your eyes when I speak to you!" The Guard saluted and ran towards the vieuwscreen, snappig to attention right in front of the Captain's chair. "So Security Guard 25-D, report what you want."
The Guard looked nervously around him, not sure what to make of his General's cynical tone. "NOW!!! Security Guard! You're wasting my time standing there and if there's one thing I hate, it's people who waste my time!" The Guard looked at Thirteen, hoping he would find an ally in him, but Thirteen only snapped at him,"Do as your general Commands you Guard! If there's one thing I dispise it's a Security Guard who shows his fear and doesn't have the guts to do his duty. Now answer the General's question, because your presence is contaminating my air and spoiling my vieuw!"
The guard saluted Thirteen and then answered the General's question. "Sir I was at my post in the Transporter Room, when Chief Engineer Rylka entered sir" "Yes Guard, and what is so special about that? It is her domain remember. Get to the point." "Well sir, she had 3rd warp core engineer Wood with her and....."
Danny started to loose his patience with the guard. The man was so frightened of Thirteen and him that his brain was practically scrambeled. Still, if they would be nicer to him now just to calm him down, they would immediately raise suspicion. In cultures such as these, compassion is considered a weakness and any sign of weakness would mean mutiny. No. They would have to keep the crew in awe of them and the only way to do that was by being as hard as possible. "Get to the point Guard! The 3rd warp core engineer has a place in a Transporter Room too! Or do you think you can calibrate and/or repair a transporter?
"Sir No Sir!" Danny smiled even more malignantly than he had so far. "Good. Then why come wasting my time when my Chief Engineer and her assistant perform a routine repair on a transporter?" "Sir because Miss Fern was with them and they sent me out. I asked them why and insisted on staying sir but Chief Engineer Rylka dismissed me sir."
"WHAT!!!!??" Danny roared. The Guard looked triumphantly around, thinking he had done the right thing. The Guard was convinced that his superior was outraged by the fact that he, the Guard of the Transporter Room, had been dismissed from his post. His amazement when the General continued, "You argued with the Chief Engineer? Your superior? You mindless worm." It was hard to imagine anyone looking more scared than the Security Guard at that moment. He shrunk to nearly a quarter of his regular size and fervently wished to be swallowed by the floor. In a very small voice he asked, "But sir, what about Fern sir. Surely she has no place there?"
At that moment Thirteen added to the Guard's fear by snapping, "How do you even dare to ask? The General and I will not explain ourselves to a lowely, subordinate, Guard 3rd class. You are relatively new here, but you should know better already. Still, we shall be merciful this time and you'll get off with a warning. Next time you pull a stunt like this however, I'm sure Imperial Supervisor Savali will know how to deal with you....."
The Guard nearly started crying at this point. He had never been more afraid in his life. Danny put him out of his misery by dismissing him. Then he turned to Thirteen. Colonel MacVaye. "You will join me in my Office to discuss crew discipline". "Immediately General". Saying that, he looked threateningly around the Observatory to see if anyone else was obstinate or stupid enough to contradict him. "Secondary Lieutenant you have the observatory!"
In the Office, they fell down on the couch as soon as the doors had shut. "I need a cup of coffee" Danny said miserably. He went to the replicator and ordered two cups of hot, steaming black coffee and offered one to Thirteen, who accepted gratefully. Thirteen sighed. "One mission nearly failed, two alarms were set off, a crewman frightened out of his wits and it's not ven lunch yet. What else can we expect today?" Danny nodded in agreement. "Well, at least we have secured the Transporter mission for now. -^-Lohnen to away teams. What's your status?"

As soon as the two crew members walked through the door Luke's hand whizzed to the side of his dilithium cutter. He want going to be caught off guard.
"Assualt troops 4 and 5 reporting for duty, Sir!"
Buster looked blank, were they talking to him. Well they were assault troops and he was the Assault troops leader.
"At Ease! Do you have anything to report?" Luke could tell that Buster had no idea what he was doing.
"Sir! You ordered us to rendevouz with you this morning. Do you not remember?" One of the assualt troops said suspiciously.
"Of course I remember..." Buster faltered. "Do not be so insolent to your superior officer, you will be severely punished for this!" Buster shifted nervously when he said that. Luke could tell it was taking every ounce of Busters courage and strength to put on this act of evil.
"Why are in the prescence of slave miner Sir?" One of the troops said.
"I will do what ever I wish, it is no concern of yours!" Buster said.
This time it was Lukes turn to shift uncomfortably. He felt sure their cover was going to be blown.
"That may be Sir. But let us take him back to the lower decks where he belongs." One of the troops roughly grabbed lukes arm.
"Let him go!" Savali yelled.
"He is only a slave, maybe I'll let him go a piece at a time...." The officer laughed menacingly and Luke felt a wave of panic wash over him. In this universe, people were so unpreditable. This crazy officer could do anything.
"I order you to leave that slave alone!" Buster yelled.
"What if we don't want to take orders from you no more." The officer that wasnt holding Luke said.
"I do not care what you want. Release him immediately!" Buster said.
"Fine, you can have him. If you win him." The officer holding Luke drew a knife and pressed it against hsi neck. The other officer drew a phaser.
"What will it be, Sir." The officer holding the knife said in a mocking tone.
Faster than anyone could see Savali had drawn his weapon and shot the officer holding Luke in the foot. The offcier screamed and release Luke but not before a hefty cut was inflicted upon his neck. Without thinking twice about it, Luke ran towards a chair picked it up and rammed it over his previous captives head. The officer lost consciousness immediately.
Now they only had one of them to deal with...

An alarm sounded.
=*\/*= Observatory, report! =*\/*= Danny said sitting upright in the couch.
=*\/*= Weapon fire on deck 6 sir. =*\/*=
''I will check it out,'' Thirteen said. Danny nodded.
Thirteen jumped up and sprinted out of the CO's office. The elevator ride to deck 6 seemed to take an eternity before it finally arrived, where Thirteen ran out.
He flung himself around a corner and came to a stop. He saw a strange occurance.
An unidentified officer had a primitive looking phaser pointed at Savali's head. He spoke: ''Drop that weapon, I'm not in this squad for nothing. You may have shot fast, but I'll shoot faster.''
The officer smiled menacingly at Savali. In the mean while Buster had taken a look at the cut in Luke's neck, also keeping an eye on the officer.
The officer suddenly produced a strange gurgling sound. His eyes became big, and almost seemed to pop out of their sockets. A red looking, thick fluid came streaming out of the corners of his mouth.
He sank on his knees, and fell face-down to the floor. Savali, Buster and Luke stared at the body that lay on the floor, which had a big red spot cut in his back.
Thirteen put the knife back in his boot, where he had drawn it from. He had a strange look in his eyes.
Noone said anything in the minutes that were to follow. They only stared at Thirteen and at the body.
Thirteen came to senses, and shook his head rapidly.
=*\/*= Security officers to deck 6, now! =*\/*= he ordered.
A minute later four security officers came running around the corner.
''Clean up this mess,'' Thirteen commanded, ''and throw the other one in the brick, make he sure he is not fed for the next two days.''
The officers silently followed their orders, while Savali, Buster, Luke and Thirteen whatched them doing so.
Thirteen looked at Savali, whom stared it back. ''I will be going back to the navigational observatory,'' Thirteen said in a strange monotone voice.
Savali only nodded, and Thirteen walked away.
''Did... did Thir... eh mister McVaye just... kill someone?'' Buster asked in a way you'd ask someone if a dream you just has was real.
''I... I guess so,'' Luke said. Savali nodded again.
Thirteen let himself fall back on the couch again in Danny's office. ''Well?'' Danny asked, ''report. My god you look pale.''
''I... I think I killed him,'' Thirteen mumbled. ''You killed someone?'' Danny asked with unbelief sounding in his voice. ''Yeah...'' Thirteen sighed, ''I stabbed him... I never knew how horrible it would be to kill someone when experiencing emotions. I have assimilated multiple people, yet while doing so I was never capable of experiencing emotions. But now I was... I feel like a wreck.''
''And furthermore,'' Danny said, ''you're a Starfleet officer. How come you just killed him like that?''
''I do not know,'' Thirteen answered, ''perhaps seeing a weapon being pointed at my friends, and a combination of knowing that I had the power drove me to simply stabbing the offender. Friendship is also an emotion, and appearantly a very strong one.''
Danny and Thirteen fell silent.

Danny looked at Thirteen for a long time. Thirteen was deadly pale and feeling miserable. "Well," Danny said at last, "personally I think you did the right thing". Thirteen looked at him unbelievingly. "You're serious?" he asked. "Yes, quite. If you hadn't intervened, Savali and the others might have been seriously injured or worse. You can't just disable everybody. Sometimes you just have to use deadly force. It comes with the job of being a Security Officer."
Thirteen still could not believe it, so Danny continued. "Thirteen, listen to me. This was your first time killing someone while you had emotions. It can be rough, I admit that immediately, but sometimes there's no other way. It was him or your friends. You had no choice because had you tried to disable him, he probably would have found a way to shoot at least one of them. Were I in your place, I would have done exactly the same thing. You just remember that you had no choice but to kill him and no amount of Starfleet training prepares you for that particular moment. You did what you had to and, being a Security officer, you will probably have to do that again someday in the future. No Starfleet officer likes to kill, but if it's unavoidable, even Starfleet officers have to kill sometimes. Remember that."
This smal lecture seemed to calm Thirteen down a bit, but still he was miserable. He would get over it in time, but right now, it was still too fresh. Dany thought it over again. Things being as they were, they would probably have to kill more people in this mirror universe. Violence seemd to be the only language these people understood. Mentally he hardened himself, resolving to show the mirrors that even Starfleet officers could be merciless if necessary.
Off: Why can't we access the separate pages of this thread from the Main TS Board anymore? Things being as they are now, only the first page can be accessed and from there we have to go to page 3. It's slower that way.

After the security officers cleaned the room and removed the body , they took the other guy to the brig and Buster turned to Felix.
"He’s going to be ok, it’s only a superficial wound", Buster said after he checked Dowding's wound
"Good, but i am worried about Thirteen he never killed a person while being able to experience emotions", Felix said
"He is going to be fine , i am sure , it may take him a while to realizes that that he will see that it was the only thing to do, since there are no stun settings in this universe on any weapons", Buster said
"I certainly hope you are right doctor, but its time to get more serious about things here." , Felix said as he went to the replicator.
He entered his codes and replicated some new weapons. After which he disabled the replicator.
"Here", he said giving a phasor type 2 like weapon to Dowding and Buster.
"If someone causes trouble and doesn’t move away when told, shoot him", Felix said
"Unfortunately, that is the only thing people in this realm understand. ", he added
"Now, id like to hear ideas where should we go and look for the captain now?", he asked

*Tiffani and her teamed made her way to the transporter room as the stood in the turbolift waiting for it to come to a halt Tiffani kinda drifted off thinking about stuff, she wondered what her mirror self was like and only hoped that her mirror self was nothing like her or the crew would be identified right away, suddenly she heard a voice and snapped out of it* Cmdr where here *came J'leera's Voice* Oh right *Said Tiffani as the left the turbolift and made their way to the transporter room* ((OOC: if anyone on my team wants to go ahead and start work on fixxing the transporter. Just whenever a response is needed from me just put <Tag Tiffani> and i'll responde when i can Hopefully in a few days i'll have my new computer and able to sim more ))

Luke touched his neck where the knife wound had been, it was strange. Buster had managed to fix him up alright but he doubted that the mark would ever leave his neck. Another sign to remember his enslaved childhood by.
Luke looked up. His mind was blank. He had no idea where the Captain would be.
"Are we sure he came over with the rest of us" Buster said.
"There is no reason to assume otherwise" said Savali. "I mean. He was transported at the same time as the rest of us."
Luke nodded. "I think it is safe to assume that Captain K'Vada is onboard this vessel, it is just where that is the problem."
Buster got up and read through the ships personnel database again.
"There are no K'Vada's or even Sams aboard this vessel. Nor are there any Andorians." Buster said.
Then Luke had an idea. "Computer are there any Andorian lifesigns onboard this vessel?"
=*\/*= Security code. =*\/*=
Savali guessed what Luke was thinking and told the computer his code. There was a brief pause and the sound of silence.
=*\/*= One Andorian lifesign. Location: Lower Deck 4. Area 5. Dilithium processing. =*\/*=
"Computer this is assualt troops leader Buster. Is there any information on the Andorian?"
=*\/*= Negative =*\/*=
"Looks like were going to the lower decks after all." Luke said, shuddering slightly...

In the CO's office, Danny was contemplating his next move. So far, all he had done was keep the Bridge crew busy, yelled at a Security Guard and nearly frightened him out of his wits. The most useful thing so far had been his coversation with Thirteen about the killing incident. Thirteen had gone to his quarters to be alone nearly three hours ago. Danny stayed behind, alone. He missed his books. They were still on the real Tigershark, hopefully in good order. With a little luck, they would be back soon and if the new inhabitant of his quarters had damaged his books, Danny would make him sorry he was ever conceived. Anyway, it was better to be in his office alone, feeling bored than being on the Bridge with those mindless, violent mirrors of a good crew.
Suddenly, his combadge beeped. -^-"Lohnen here." Commander Savali softly whispered into the combadge -^-"Savali here Lieutenant. We have found an Andorian lifesign on one of the slave decks. The computer doesn't have any information on the person in question, but it might be a trace of the Captain. We're going down there but I don't know to what extent they will accept my authority."-^- Danny jumped up, smiling happily. Finally something more than just waiting around on the Bridge. -^-Understood sir, I'll accompany you. We'll make it seem as a routine inspection if they start asking nasty questions. I'll get Lieutenant Thirteen to command the Bridge.....sorry, the Navigational Observatory and I'll get down as soon as possible." -^-"Understood. Savali out.-^-
About ten minutes later, the Transporter Room doors slid open and Danny entered, seeing the rest of the team waiting for him. "Okay," Savali said, "Let's move."

Felix, Mathijs and Luke after finding out where the captain was went to the transporter room to check on the progress of modifying the transporter. After they reached the transporter room they went inside and were ambushed by Fern.
"It's us", Buster yelled as fern was about to shoot them
"Oh, yes, sorry sir", she said getting red in the cheeks
"So how’s the multidimensional transporter coming up?", Felix asked Wood
<Wood>
"When will it be done?", he asked
"Within an hour and a half", Wood replied
"Good , the sooner we get out of here the better we are going to find the captain", he showed on him , Buster , Dowding "and you stay here and get this transporter working.", Felix said
"Tiffani , how are you doing", he asked her before they went
<Tiffani>
"Don't worry well be out of here soon, and then well all get some rest and holodeck time ", he said with a smile
<Tiffani, Wood, Fern>
Then he contacted Lohnen to have him go with them in the lower decks just so they wouldn’t have to kill anyone more , 2 deaths are more then enough for non war times. And so they went out of the transporter room to the lift for the lower decks. When they entered the lift the door closed shut and a message was written on the screen.
"Please enter the authorization code to access lower decks within 30 seconds or the cabin will be flooded with anestezine gas and security alerted."

"That's reassuring" Buster said in a small voice. "They inform us of the fact that we're going to die if we don't punch in the code and they even tell us how they're going to do it. How nice of them". "No-one's going to die today," Danny said with a grim voice. "At least not in this pathetic excuse for a turbolift". He punched in his code, Löhnen3993Red and the screen even said "Thank you for entering your code. Anestezine gas measure disabled". The lift started moving again. They all sighed with relief. If the code hadn't worked, it would have been the shortest elevator trip in the history of the universe. They reached the lower levels. The doors slid open...............

Thirteen had ran to the hygienic facilities the moment he had entered his quarters, and had thrown up in the toilet.
When he had freshend up he'd fallen to the floor of his quarters, crying. He fell asleep in that postition.
=*\/*= General Lohnen to McVaye, report to the navigational observatory for temporary command, =*\/*= Danny's voice sounded.
=*\/*= Understood sir, =*\/*= Thirteen said picking him self up from the ground.
After a quick minute in the bathroom he looked a little better, and went on his way to the observatory.
Arriving there he greeted the worried looking face from Danny, who stepped into the lift Thirteen had just exited.
Thirteen sank down in the general's chair.
One crewmember had the guts to say: ''Sir, you are not allowed to take place in the general's chair sir, with all dua respect.'' It was a young looking second class underofficer.
Thirteen jumped up, walked over to the underofficer and flung him on the ground yelling: ''Do not you ever, ever point me to any of the things I would be doing wrong in your eyes!'' his eyes shot fire, ''state your name, underofficer,'' Thirteen spoke threateningly.
''J-Jack O-O'Terra, s-sir,'' the underofficer said with a shivering voice.
''Wel Jack,'' Thirteen began with a voice that sounded way too friendly, ''you never ever talk to me that way again, understood?''
''Y-yes sir,'' Jack said.
''Good,'' Thirteen smiled, =*\/=* Security to the navigational observatory, we have got a subject with the intension of commiting mutiny. Please come and pick him up. Follow standard procedures for mutiny. =*\/*=
At the moment he had said that, he'd regretted saying it right away again. The standard procedures for mutiny would most certainly be extermination in this universe.
Three security officers walked into the navigational obeservatory, picking up and carrying away the now crying underofficer.
''Wait a minute,'' Thirteen said, having thought of a plan real quickly, ''instead of punishing him by extermination, punish him by putting him on slave work. That way we will even benefit from Jack his fatal mistake.''
''Understood sir colonel,'' the security officers spoke, carrying Jack O'Terra away.
With a small sigh of relief Thirteen sank back in the general's chair.
It was unbelievable that they'd only been here for two days now, yet the time of service already seemed to have lasted as long as that one on the real Tigershark.

The corridor looked horrible. Stuff was lying all over the floor and barrels were positioned against the walls. People walked back and forth and entered doors. The upper decks looked better, that was certain.
"So... Where do you think the captain could be?" Luke asked.
Nobody answered the question. They walked further along the corridor and Buster bumped into a man who wasn't paying attention.
"I'm sorry, my mistake" Buster apologised. He then realised his error and tried to look at the man in an angry way, but the man was already walking away hastily. "And watch where you are walking!" Buster shouted.
They continued searching, entering a door to the right. A strange red glow illuminated the area, it's colors reflecting on Buster's armor.
"We should be in area 5 now. Is this Dilithium processing?" Buster asked.
Luke nodded. "This is it".
People were busy working, some pressing buttons on consoles near the walls. Strange gasses came out of tubes and odd noises could be heard.
"Do they have to do this manually?" Buster asked. "Under these conditions?".
"Yes... and we have to find the captain" Savali said. "The faster the better".
Meanwhile the slaves that were working began looking at the 4 strange people that entered. Buster and Luke started to feel uncomfortable, while Savali and Danny didn't even notice the attention they suddenly received from the slaves.
"Do you think they have him working here?" Danny asked.
"Let's hope they have. I can't imagine what else the captain would be doing here, and if he is working here, we at least know he is alive". Savali replied.
Danny nodded. "But how are we going to find him?"
Buster coughed, clearly asking for attention. Savali and Danny turned towards Buster and finally noticed the slaves that had now stopped working. They were obviously expecting something... Maybe a speech or a punishment.
"Eeehr... Let's discuss that outside" Savali almost whispered, before quietly manouvering towards the exit. Buster, Luke and Danny followed. The slaves looked at eachother and continued working...
"It seems that we are raising a lot of suspicion lately. We really have to come up with a plan and stay within our roles" Savali said, once they were outside the room.
"Maybe we should split up?" Buster asked. I think we are less suspicious that way".
"Negative Mr. Buster, If one of us gets into trouble we can't help eachother out" Savali answered. "We need to stay together, or in no-time we'll have more to search for than just the captain"
"Okay... So we are just going to walk around looking for the captain?" Buster said. "Can't we ask someone where we can find him?"
"We could, but who are we going to ask for? We don't know his name. Not even his rank" Savali said. "What do you want to ask? If anyone has seen an andorian?"
Buster sighed. "Okay, let's just look for him then".

"Tiffani , how are you doing", he asked her before they went
would be better if we was back home in our quarter *she said with a weak smile*
"Don't worry well be out of here soon, and then well all get some rest and holodeck time ", he said with a smile
Rest is always good *she smiled, giving a felix a wink before the left*
((OOC: J'leera Please fill free to continue what you were doing just in future PLEASE make sure to let me know if you do anything with my character so i know where she at and what she doing also in the future when its my time to talk can you put <tag Tiffani> thanks muchly))

Danny was still feeling worried by Thirteen's sudden outburst against the underofficer. He would need to have a conversation with him soon. Maybe he could help Thirteen discover his emotions and controlling them or maybe he could persuade him to see the Counselor. But there was no time to worry about that now. They were still on the slave deck and things were becoming more difficult. On the one hand, he was the CO of the ship, so technically he could punish the slaves for looking his way or even breathing to hard. On the other hand, he pitied the slaves so much that he couldn't even get a harsh word out of his mouth.
Danny turned to Savali. "Commander. These conditions are really horrible. I'd like permission to try to set the slaves free before we leave the ship again. At least let me give them a headstart. I'm sure they'd rather die fighting for their freedom than work here for the rest of what's left of their lives. We could organise a mutiny before we leave and I'm even willing to lead it, even if that would mean never to return to ou Tigershark. I can't just leave them like this" TAG: Savali
Meanwhile, they were searching more mining rooms for the Captain. So far, they'd had no luck. Suddenly, Lieutenant Dowding came running back. "Sir, I think I might have found the Captain." They al jumped at that news. "Hurry up Lieutenant, lead the way. " Savali ordered. They hurried quickly to the place where Luke Dowding thought he had seen the Captain. It turned out that he was right.
Captain K'Vada lay on his back, his skin pale, his eyes closed and he looked exhausted. He could have been dead, and they almost presumed he was, but at the last moment his chest moved half an inch and they could see that he was breathing. Buster immediately kneeled down beside him and began to examine him thoroughly. "He's badly hurt, severely dehydrated and cruelly beaten. Here, help me turn him around" Danny and Luke helped Buster turn the Captain around. Luke Dowding nearly threw up on the spot, because what they then saw was too horrible for words. When they had turned him over, the team could see terrible wounds made by cruel whips on his back. Captain K'Vada was bleeding and he didn't even have the strength to moan.
=^=General Löhnen to Sickbay.=^= =^=Sickbay here sir. =^=Get a medical team down to the slave deck stat!=^= =^=Sir, did you just say to the slave deck?=^= =^=Don't argue with me Lieutenant, just get your behind down here now!=^=
Several minutes later, the medical team arrived. They ran to Löhnen's location and paused right before him. "Take this man up this instant and give him all the care he needs." "Sir," the Doctor said, "He is a slave sir. Why do you want him taken to sickbay?" Danny's eyes shot fire and his voice became a threatening growl. "Don't you ever contradict me again Lieutenant. This is not a slave. He is an under cover operative, working for me. His duties are classified. That should be enough for you. Now take him up and you better take the very best care of him. If he dies, you die." The Doctor looked scared, but he immediately complied. "Yes sir General, right away sir. He'll be fine in no time sir." And the medical team took the wounded Captain K'Vada to Sickbay.

I can't just leave them like this" "Mr. Lohnen , no one is going to stay behind here and certanly not you , as for starting a mutiny , last time we changed something in this mirror universe , it was while captain Kirk was in command of the Enterprise, we caused the fall of the terran empire and we will not go around changing something like starting a mutiny again as who knows what might happen then as it is in the nature of all people in this mirror universe , and i mean of all people and races to be violent , so by doing that all we do is get this slaves to become what the crew of this ship is and the crew of this ship would become what the slaves are , and we will not be doing this.", Felix finished "Also we need to get back to our universe as soon as possible or who knows what the people from here will cause."

Felix, Mathijs and Luke after finding out where the captain was went to the transporter room to check on the progress of modifying the transporter. After they reached the transporter room they went inside and were ambushed by Fern. "It's us", Buster yelled as fern was about to shoot them "Oh, yes, sorry sir", she said getting red in the cheeks. She was still not used to the idea that she had to play the part of the assassin/marine, but was willing to do it if it meant getting everyone back again. She turned to the Commander who was talking to Wood at the moment. She was a little surprised when Wood said that the transporter would be ready within an hour and a half, but did not show it. If he thought that they could do it, then she was determined to fullfill that. Besides the fact that she was also eager to get out of there. The place was starting to remind her of her training mission back at the Academy. She turned her attention back to the Savali and saw that he was talking to Tiffani. She waited until they finished, not wanting to interrupt them. "Don't worry well be out of here soon, and then well all get some rest and holodeck time ", he said with a smile “Sounds good to me,” J’Leera answered and the others nodded in agreement. They nodded and watched as the Commander left with the others. When they were gone, they turned back to the transporter and began scanning it with a tricorder. The process was very tedious since many of the components of the mirror universe were different from their own. In some instances they had to physically remove bulkheads in order to obtain a clear reading of the component that they wanted to scan. Despite this inconvenience, they worked as quickly as possible in order to convert the transporter into one capable of multi-dimensional transports. Wood remembered reading a report once about such a device by the former chief of engineer at Deep Space 9, Miles O’Brien. While Wood was doing most of the actual engineering, J’Leera and Tiffani were looking over the data scans. Suddenly J’Leera picked up something unusual that didn’t appear in the original scans. “Look at this,” she pointed at the graph. “According to this, we don’t even have enough power to get this thing online once it’s converted. We’re going to have to obtain power from somewhere else.” <Tag: Tiffani> “A ship like this should be able to have the power we need,” J’Leera said. “I don’t understand why were not getting it.” <Tag: Tiffani> J’Leera nodded, “Right. If we can do that, than we should be able to get it online. With Wood’s knowledge of the transporter that we need, it shouldn’t be too difficult.” Just as they were about to reexamine the power graphs, they heard a bang on the door. Wood looked up from his work. “Are you sure you locked that door?” he asked. “Yes, I’m sure,” J’Leera answered. She took her tricorder and scanned to see who it was. She approached the door cautiously and pointed the tricorder towards it. According to her scans, she found that it was probably just one of the under crewmen. But something about the scan aroused her suspicions. While the subject appeared to be human, there was something unusual about the DNA that was popping up. She was no expert in genetics, but even she could see that something was amiss with the person. She starred at the door and was startled to see the metal bend under the person’s fist. She jumped back in surprise and starred at the lump that suddenly appeared in the door. “What the…?” she gasped. Wood and Tiffani looked over at her and saw what she was looking at. J’Leera turned around and pulled out her weapon. “I believe that this person has been genetically engineered,” she gulped. <Tag: Wood or Tiffani> OFF: It would really be better to call me J'Leera instead of Fern, since Fern is actually back on the other Tiger Shark.
