Chapter 10
Once abroad the shuttle craft. Savin and Lt. Roberts made ready, with having to switch on the cloaking device to to reach out into orbit and planet Romulus itself. They would be heading for the neutral zone, along with the Romulan bird of prey.
The Vulcan Savin seemed lost in thought of his stapled fingers touching with the controls, while Roberts would be monitoring the communications bans.
Savin nodded at Roberts. As he straightened his Romulan tunic and made a gesture towards a compartment taking out rations to keep up their strength. He ventured slowly in that direction.
"Lt. Roberts." He handed the rations to him, He takes it, with his left hand to be monitoring for the most part.
"Thanks." A few moments went by. Given the current tension. "Savin, I am only getting silence, nothing at all from the border patrols."
"Most curious." He replied, while finishing up the rations. As Savin raised an eyebrow.
"I don't like this Savin, it's too quiet for my taste, it's just been too easy, unless the Romulans just don't care at this point, since Galen did say that many are against the Praetor, along with the civil war."
"No doubt Lt., but for now we need to get back to the Dear Born to advise Star Fleet Command of the situation."
They stayed like that for some time, looking into each others eyes.

The bird of prey was cloaked just above the planet of Romulus. Eveiss and William were able to take off without trouble, while the Farragut crew members including Captain Robert Walker and Jariel.
"Tell me Eviess, why do you think this mission was easier then I thought ?" William asked with a conflicting tone.
Logically Captain, it should of been, however with the Praetor, many of the population on Romulus don't wish to see a another long war to destroy the planet." While voicing her opinion.
William was still running with his adrenaline, making him think other wise. But it did however made him faster, stronger, fiercer. It makes you fill painfully alive. Like now.
Eviess presses some buttons on the panels in front of her. "We are clear of the planet's orbit, we will be heading for the neutral zone and your vessel."
"Good, how long until we reach the neutral zone?" He asked looking at the panels in front of him.
"Two hours and 21 minutes Captain, we are not out of the woods as yet." William thinking she's acting just so calm having left everything behind.
At that moment. Captain Walker walks in slowly taking in the view in front of him with the view port. While Eviess looks over with a grin, she doesn't bother herself sitting up or asking him to sit down, there's no need of it.
He takes a seat in the back of them, making himself comfortable. He waits till she starts first, but she doesn't.
"Here we go Eviess, patrols are in the area, since the cloaking device is working, we poise no problem in getting past them."
