They Everyone,
Hey I have a review :P
rjdevelbiss- Thank you for the review, Oh STO, how i remember how excited i was when it first came out, actually i was in the middle of writing the original scripts to these stories back then lol. What a let down that game turned out to be "sigh" If only they didn't use an engine built for "super heroes" Maybe it wouldn't have felt weird flying your ship, and maybe the Starbase and ship interiors wouldn't feel so huge, I swear the interior of my defiant wouldn't be able to physically fit inside of my ship! This is Star Trek Cryptic! NOT DR WHO :P lol sorry about that rant, Thank you so much for your review, I am happy that my story is peeking your interest in Star Trek again and I hope you enjoy the new chapter :)
So I am back already, so soon after my last chapter. Well since this was a rather small chapter it took almost no time to re-write, I also really didn't have a lot of opportunity to add new scenes to lengthen the story, every time I tried it just looked like I was trying to add stuff for the sake of making it longer and it didn't look good, so rather then screw around with it I figured I would just release it now :P
Anyway I know its a short one "just under 2K" But I hope you all enjoy the new chapter
Book 3 - Star Trek Predator: For Freedom - Chapter 4, Unknown Intelligence
Sasuke Athrun and Cagalli were walking through the base
"They just moved him into this area last night" Cagalli explained as she led the group
"Do you think that there is anyway we could get him out of here without raising any alarms?" Sasuke asked as he looked around
Athrun gave both Sasuke and Cagalli a Nudge "Cagalli, what are you doing tonight? I was thinking me you and Sasuke could all go out and see a movie" He suddenly started saying
"Oh I know, have any of you seen the new sci fi? Kira went to see it the other day and said its a must see" Athrun suggested
"Oh? What is it about?" Cagalli asked
"Its an alternate reality of what would have happened had the colonies broken away into their own and genetically modified themselves to be smarter and stronger. This causes relations with the planet to deteriorate as they are divided over genetic engineering, with the people on the planet known as Naturals and the ones from the colonies known as Coordinators, they fight using these suits called Gundam as well as ships both in space and on the planet, its really interesting" Athrun answered
"Sure, sounds like fun" Cagalli answered
"Awesome! We should go see it together tonight, we can drop by and eat dinner first, what do you think Sasuke?" Athrun asked him
"Huh? Oh yeah sounds like a good plan" Sasuke quickly answered
Athrun watched as the Cardassian walked down the corridor and left the area "Alright he's gone, that was a close one" he said with a sigh of relief
"Do you think that we have been detected?" Sasuke asked
"No I think he was just passing by, we should be fine" Athrun answered
"Its a good thing you noticed, and to answer your question Sasuke, during the day there is too much security to get away with taking him, during the night would be the best time" Cagalli explained
"That's great, then we can do it tonight" Sasuke suggested
"Well the only problem is that they don't allow Zaft to stay over during the night" She explained
"Well there is one other option, I can hide in the base" Sasuke told them
"That would be impossible, they do a full scan of the base every night to make sure no one other then Cardassians are inside. Anyone caught without authorization is executed after a lengthy interrogation session" Cagalli stated
Sasuke grinned "That wouldn't be a problem for me, all I need to know is when the scan starts, using my powers I can make my life signs disappear for a limit of time"
"Really? You have powers?" Cagalli asked "What kind of powers?" She added
"We can talk about that later, do you know the exact time that they do the scan?" Sasuke asked
"Every night at exactly twenty two hundred hours" She told him
"Perfect, Athrun, I need you to go tell Naruto about the plan, no wait, telling Naruto about the plan will only make him want to join me and do something stupid. Just tell him that I am out in the city gathering information"
"I will stay with Sasuke until I have to go. You should get ready to leave by the same door you exited in exactly ten minutes" Cagalli told him
"Understood, good luck Sasuke" As he walked past Cagalli he stopped for a second "And you don't do anything stupid that would get you in trouble, you know what they would to do you if they found out"
"I know, don't worry I will be careful" She answered back as Athrun walked away
He was able to exit from the base undetected , meanwhile Naruto had laid out the uniforms on the bed
"Why would they have Starfleet uniforms?" Suzu asked as she examined them
"One of them is a Lieutenant and the other a Lieutenant Commander, whats with the black collars" Naruto said
"What should we do?" She asked him
Naruto took out a tricorder and connected it to the Flyers computer "Computer, how many colored departments are there in Starfleet" Naruto asked
"there are four standard colored department and three Special Ops departments, The standards are red for command officers, yellow for security and engineering blue for science and teal for medical. Special ops are white for fighter pilots, green for marine corp" The computer explained
"Wait, computer you said that there are three special ops, what is the third department color?" Naruto asked
"That information is classified" The computer answered
"Classified?" He said surprised
"Let me try, Computer, what department does the black collared uniforms belong to" Suzu asked
"That information is classified" the computer just repeated
"Nice try Suzu, unfortunately we are right back where we started" Naruto stated with a sigh as he closed the tricorder
They suddenly hear the doors to the main quarters slid open
"Hello? Naruto? Suzu?" They heard Athrun call out
"Oh crap, what should we do?" Suzu asked
Naruto quickly put the uniforms back into the closet the way he found them and shoved his tricorder into his pocket and casually walked out of the room followed by Suzu
"Hey Athrun, where is Sasuke?" Naruto casually asked
"He is scouting the city looking for information and a way of getting your officer out of here" Athrun answered
"Oh did you find him? The officer that is" Suzu asked
"Yes, but it's too heavily guarded right now to do anything, so he is trying to gather information and formulate a plan to rescue him" Athrun told him
"I see, well that's good I guess" Naruto said trying to act normal
"What were you doing in my room?" Athrun asked
"oh nothing we were just looking around, we didn't touch anything I swear" Suzu quickly answered nervously
"I see , please keep out of my room in the future, its my, personal space" Athrun told them as he took a peek inside his room
"Ah sorry we didn't even know it was your room, Kira did mention it but he had to leave in a hurry and I guess he forgot to actually tell us which room was actually yours" Naruto explained, it was actually the truth
"Its alright I'm going to rest for a bit if you don't mind" Athrun said as he removed the top of his uniform
"Sure make yourself at home" Naruto said with a grin
"How nice of you, considering it is my home" Athrun said with a smile as the doors closed behind him
"What do we do now?" Suzu whispered
"For now we wait, I want to try and gather a bit more information if possible" Naruto whispered back
The rest of the day was uneventful and it was getting close to twenty one hundred thirty hours.
"I will be forced to leave soon" Cagalli told Sasuke
"Don't worry I can take care of myself" He said with a grin
"Look, if you need any help press this button, it will signal me that your in trouble" Cagalli said as she handed him a small device "I will be waiting for you near the second street, please be careful" She added
"Thanks for all your help, Starfleet will appreciate this I am sure" Sasuke answered back
She walked away to sign off for the day as Sasuke went to find a room where he could hide in and got ready to mask his presence from the sensors. The clock was ticking and twenty two hundred hours was fast approaching
"Its almost twenty two hundred, are all those worthless Zaft people gone yet?" One of the Cardassians asked
"One of them is just sighing out now" Another answered
"She sure is cutting it close, last time someone was late, they learned their lesson" The first one said with a grin
The second one observed Cagalli on the monitor "I wouldn't mind if she would have been late, she's kind of cute, I would of enjoyed giving her a lesson" The second one said as he watched her leave
"Enough of that, its twenty two hundred now, lets start the scan" The first stated
Sasuke was in a dark room alone, concentrating on hiding his Chakra and life force from the sensors
"Scan is complete, its all clear" The second one reported
"I wonder how long it takes for the scan to complete, just to be on the safe side I will stay like this for five more minutes" Sasuke thought to himself, unaware that the scan had already been completed.
After five minutes Sasuke got back up and stood by the door
"Neji , I really could use your help right now, your Byakugan would have came in handy, but oh well my Sharingan will have to do" Sasuke though to himself
At the same time far away from Orb the Defiant and a full Federation task force was just outside of Deep Space Nine
"Nothing yet on sensors yet sir" Neji said with a sigh
"Keep looking" Sisko told him
"Sir if this turns out to be a false alarm, you may hold me responsible captain" Neji told him
"Ensign, we can never be too careful, I would rather we prepare and nothing happens, then being caught off guard" Sisko answered back
Suddenly Neji's console began go chime "Wait a second sir, long range, detecting seventy three Cardassian ships and twenty five Breen ships" He reported
"Well then, I guess it wasn't a false alarm, what is our fleet status" Sisko asked
"Thanks to the advance warning, our fleet will be more then ready to meet them sir, Deep Space Nine should be able to handle that many ships" Kira answered from the comm
"Good, all hands red alert I'm taking command of the fleet" Sicko stated as the lights on the bridge dimmed down
Back on Orb Naruto and Suzu were with Kira and Athrun waiting for word from Sasuke
"Maybe he was found out, why didn't you stay with him Athrun?" Naruto asked worried about Sasuke
"Don't worry, a friend of mine is showing him the way around town" Athrun answered "Plus its just a bit over twenty two hundred" He added
"Cagalli?" Kira asked
"Yeah" Athrun answered "By the way, did you guys happen to go through my closet out of curiosity?" He asked
Kira was a bit surprised and raised an eyebrow at Athrun and then looked for Naruto and Suzu's response
"Um no of course not, we didn't touch anything" Suzu said nervously
"Hurm, you sure about that?" Athrun asked once more
"We I may have taken a peek, Suzu wanted to know what Orb people wore, I mean you couldn't be dressed in Zaft uniforms all the time" Naruto answered, both of them got up causing both Suzu and Naruto do to the same "Then again perhaps you two are the ones hiding something from us aren't you" He said as he reached for a kunai in one of his pockets
Athrun let out a sigh "They know too much"
"It would appear to be the case, how unfortunate" Kira added
End chapter 4
Well, it looks like Suzu and Naruto are in more trouble then Sasuke is at the moment, what are they hiding? Find out in chapter 5 :)
Anyway, Review or don't, either way the Bethesda Creation Club is a joke, don't pay for mods!
