"Tarmbeq!" mBarlneh insulted her first officer, Executive Commander Ylaerr. The commander looked down in shame, she knew her mistake, but that didn't soften the impact of mBarlneh's rage.
"How much information did they get?" mBarlneh screeched.
"Undeterminable, Mistress." Ylaerr admitted.
If this had been a male Fen Domar, mBarlneh would've killed him with her own claws and fangs by now. "What can you tell me that's positive?" mBarlneh wanted to know.
"We destroyed several fighters and captured their pilots." Ylaerr told her superior.
"Officers of the Federation Starfighter Corps, I look forward to…seeing how much use they can be." mBarlneh's thoughts excited her. "Dismissed."
"Yes Mistress." Ylaerr bowed, as she was nearly out of the commodore's office she was stopped in her tracks.
"Ylaerr." mBarlneh called.
Ylaerr turned and took up a low subdued posture. "Mistress?"
"You are demoted to Commander First Class. You may continue serving as my uthrain, until further notice."
"Understood." Ylaerr bowed lowly again. "Thank you Mistress." Ylaerr was then allowed to leave Commodore mBarlneh's office to resume her duties.
"What's going to happen to us Sir?" The terrified Senior Airman Walter Jones asked his superior officer.
"I don't know, but the Starfighter Corps, Starfleet and the Marines they'll save us." Master Sergeant Louis Hendrix replied. He wanted to keep his nervous colleague calm. He looked to his left, to see Senior Airman Dakar, a Cardassian officer, recently attached to his squadron meditating, or praying, this helped Louis feel that he too could be calm, and that it was his duty as superior officer to ensure the calm between the only two surviving members of his squadron there with him.
The jail cell, was small, barely qualifying as a room, there were no facilities and traces of decomposing bodies left there by their captors. Strangely the arrival of mBarlneh and her guards was a relief for Louis, who just needed something to take his mind off the cell's previous resident.
"I am Commodore mBarlneh of the Fen Domar Theocracy."
Then, Senior Airman Dakar sprung into action, leaping at mBarlneh.
The guard to her right stepped in front of her and punched his arm through the Cardassian's chest. His body crumpled to the ground like a rag doll.
"I'm Master Sergeant Hendrix…" Louis started.
"I don't care." mBarlneh snarled. "All I care about, is what use your going to be to me." Using her forked tongue mBarlneh stroked the side of Louis's face, and grinned sadistically.
