Chapter Eight: Genocide

Author's Note: I fixed last chapter. I hope you're still reading. New chapter now! I own nothing but Zorek.

The ship shook with the ferocity of an earthquake.

"Captain, we are being attacked!" Laurel shouted over the intercom.

"By who?" Rivers asked.

"Romulans." Marq said looking suspiciously at Zorek.

Zorek looked surprised. Maybe they came to kill him. He had to remain calm. It might not have anything to do with him. Who knows?

He stepped up calmly and confidently. Now was his chance to prove himself.

"Message the vessel. Ask them why they are attacking." Zorek ordered.

"No answer."

"Give them a warning shot maybe they might go away."

"They're not backing off, commander." Marq reported.

Before Zorek could give another order, Marq said, "Captain, they are hailing us!"

On screen a romulan male with brown hair and blue eyes appeared and Zorek went pale. He recognized this romulan.

"Savant?" Zorek asked.

"Zorek? I thought you were dead."

"I thought the same about you. Captain, I know this man. He's extremely dangerous. He and his crew committed the crime of genocide."

"Genocide?" Rivers asked. She could not have heard him right.

"That's what the man said and I won't deny it." Savant said smirking evilly.

Zorek silently ordered Savant offscreen and looked at the captain.

"I know romulan technology. We need to disable his ship and arrest the leader. I'll let you decide the punishment for the rest."

"Agreed, take the tactical and you and Marq can go ahead and disable the ship if you can."

Zorek and Marq worked together and disabled the ship. Marq looked at Zorek surprised when the romulan warbird's systems went down.

"Like I said I know romulan technology." Zorek said proudly.

"Good job you two! Have Savant beamed to the brig and leave a message for the romulans to pick up the rest. They're not going anywhere anytime soon."

Marq smiled at Zorek, "Let's go celebrate before our next assignment!"

"Yes, lieutenant. Celebrate." Zorek said smiling back.
