Mike arrived at the brig. The crime scene was untouched, the dead bodies of the Prisoner Rodney Pavlik and the Brig Officer, Petty Officer Larry Clinton. Two Security Officers were posted outside the Brig and another inside. A Medical Officer was also there, scanning the bodies with a medial tricorder. As Mike entered, the Senior Officer on the scene spoke up.
“Admiral, this is how we found the Brig. Clinton was still at the security desk when he was hit the first time. The killer then disabled the security systems…internal sensors, comms, and video feeds. He then fired the fatal shot at point blank range. He then shut down the force field on the Prisoner’s cell, made him turn around and kneel before shooting him in the back of the head.”
Mike nodded as he looked around, then he looked back at the Lieutenant, “Thank you.” Mike looked over at the Medical Officer as he stood.
“Both men were killed by a Type-One phaser set on heavy stun at close range sir.”
“We found nothing else out of place sir, nothing taken, nothing accessed.” The Lieutenant then added.
Mike looked around again, then tapped his commbadge, “Bremer to R’Nard and Brislan, status report.”
"We have located the victims, they are in critical condition," Tressa replied.
“Understood, keep me updated. Bremer out.” He started to walk out of the Brig, then paused…a thought crossed his mind.
Bremer tapped his commbadge again, “Bremer to Ops…Commander Clifford. Have any vessels arrived within the last twelve hours? Startships, freighters, transports, private craft, anything?
Andrew looked across at the Operations Officer, "Give me a list of all the ships that have docked in the last 12 hours".
He tapped his comm badge, "Clifford to Admiral Bremer, Getting the information now, Sir".
"Thank you." Mike waited, but he wasn't patient...time was of the essence.
The operations officer had the information sent to the console that Clifford was working at, "On your console, Sir".
Andrew scanned the information and tapped his com badge, "Clifford to Admiral Bremer. Two ships arrived, Sir. One of them is the frigate USS Dune and the other was a private freighter, it was getting ready to depart as the station was locked down". He scanned down the communications to and from the freighter, "The Captain is quite upset at being kept here, Sir".
“Lock that ship down, send a R’Nard and a Security Team to that ship, now!” It was just a hunch, but something James Westmoreland said was a clue.
Andrew tapped his comm badge again, "Clifford to Commander Lokran, Get a security team to the Freighter Hermes. Report back when you have control of the ship." Something in the way the Admiral spoke made him add a final bit to the message to R'Nard, "R'Nard, take Marines with you, I have a feeling you may need some heavy firepower".
“I’m on my way back to Ops. Bremer out.” Mike wanted to go too, but he needed to let R’Nard do his job without always looking over his shoulder.
