New Paths to follow
Chapter 26th
Onboard the Alliance vessel the Calico. Communications office Trelane was retrieving a message from the Seaview on its way to Iceland. It was somewhat confusing with the message even though Darien the leader will be able to understand it.
Deciding to take the message himself to his cabin with Darien in his human form currently. He's been not happy with the situation involving the race, Admiral Nelson had mentioned and now he has a feeling the dirt is being released that could cause Planet Earth to be in trouble with the Alliance.
Taking the turbo to the eight-level for where Darien's quarters were located. There was no one on the level at the moment except for Darien. Stopping in front of his quarters by ringing the bell and with the door opening.
"Come in already Trelane. What is on your mind?" he will say in his gruff voice in spite of the fact that he has regenerated into his human self.
"I have a strange message for you from the Seaview sir, I just don't understand it," he said cryptically.
"Fine, let me have it Trelane?" Darien needed to say to his communications officer. Trelane hands it to him to head back to his station.
Darien had taken a look at the coded message that he was able to understand along with his anger building inside. He wasn't too pleased that the United States Government had been lying to him in regard to another race from system 486 was being held as captives in order to perform experiments on them. This wasn't supposed to be happening for when it comes to the peace of the planet and the rest of the Alliance.
He needed to contact those in charge of this project before deciding on a course of action in order to not let billions have to suffer because of these people.
The flyer after some time had reached the same location for where his wife Syrian will be switching on the device to bring all power to full in order to wink out and wind up into the Andromeda system and beyond.
"Commander Thomas, how's the power levels?" Syrian asked the question since it will be her job to press the button on the device, while everyone was strapped in and ready for the jump.
"Power levels are at 100%," he says by checking the computer terminal.
"We are ready Harriman!" Syrian turned to face her husband in the pilot seat with all coordinates in front of him once they enter the 486 solar system.
"LET'S DO THIS !" he ordered with needing to get this over with already and back home.
Syrian pushed the button on the black device when all of a sudden they felt the pull of the Flyer and then the winking out taking a few seconds. Admiral Nelson and the rest of the crewmembers felt slightly off as always. When all of a sudden they had found themselves back into normal space and needing to check the navigational computer.
"Where are we?" Nelson needed to ask the importance of the question.
They had checked the position with the coordinates to have the Flyer in the exact spot before entering the system of 486 and the four planets.
"We are just a tad slightly off. However, I will make the change to send us back on track to head for the fourth planet Admiral Nelson." Commander Thomas needed to have said to make the navigational change.
"Is everyone alright?" Nelson needed to know by shifting in his seat with looking at the charts in front of him.
He was able to get a choir of affirmative answers without having to be fine.
Military installation ARIZONA
Hanger 18
Commander James Venison in charge of Hanger 18 didn't like the idea that the project was being closed down by orders of the President of the United States and other officials coming to see the Crystallines having been placed into quarantine after the experiments.
Commander Lee Crane with his group came up to Commander Venison issuing orders to see the Crystallins to have them released and sent to the Nelson Institute for now.
"Where do you get off Commander Crane to take our subjects from this place?" he was livid with asking him the question.
"Are you serious Commander Venison? Do you really wish to start a war with the Alliance having to take a new race and exploiting them?" Crane angered with the questions.
He didn't have an answer to both questions. "I will take you to them, Commander. I have nothing more to be said," he exclaimed with getting into the jeep to head for the area for where the Crystallines were being held.
Sometime later entering a security area with the guards standing down once the commander had given the word.
It was a rather large building where a number of science projects are worked on and including the Crystallines. However, now all work had been stopped with the aliens located in a secured region of the building.
Commander Lee Crane was amazed as to how much has been going on with this special group of scientists exploiting any alien the U.S. government is able to capture.
Moving into an environment where they had to get out to change into protective suits just in case. This had taken almost 30 minutes once Commander venison was sure everyone was ready to enter the secured biological area.
Putting the code number into the lock in order for the double doors to opened and entering into the semi-darkened quarters.
"Why are the lights down low Commander Venison?" Lee needed to ask the commander giving the reason as to why. "I will like to talk with them using the universal translator?" Crane insisted...
There were six of the crystallines hugging against each other semi looking humans on the verge of changing completely. "I am Commander Lee Crane of the Nelson Institute. I am here to save your group and take all of you back to the Institute to be given a serum in order to change you back completely to your human form." he had to say with waiting for the translator to begin...
