Bree and Brian were waiting in the Pond Skipper for her Friends to get here. During that time Bree gave Brian a tutorial on the 24th century and how the systems work on her ship. They'd already set down on the planet and started drawing up planes for homes.
Six Hours later on Pond Skipper.
The first few ships arrived there were three Bajoran freighters the Soul fire, the Destiny, and the Justice arrived. They brought a fusion power core (they obtained ) within two days the station was back to full power, next they put in a few replicators, water generators, waste recyclers, and even got two transporter pads operational, finally they were able to transmit on low subspace bands and short range sensors were on-line.
Two days later
Brian and Bree bid farewell to there friends some of the crew from the freighters wanted to stay they were given permission about twenty Bajorans stayed. Later that day a Civilian nova class cargo ship stopped hearing Bree's call they dropped off medical supplies and a few doctors.
Entering Jasper System
Unknown to Jasper Station unexpected guests were in the system uninvited.
Romulan Warbird To'nass
Status: Cloaked, Investigating Re-activation of star base in Jasper System
"Captain Ja'Son a science officer said" "Yes the female captain said" "What's the status of this station Lt." asked Ja'Son. "Strange the station has main power, life support, low level subspace capabilities, short range sensors, no shields or weapons, there are twenty-two Bajorans and six humans" said the Lt. "Should we destroy them" asked the weapons officer "NO de-cloak and hail request boarding let's see what they have to say" Ja'Son said.
Jasper Six Station Command deck
Brian and Bree were at command the Nova cargo ship left hours ago, an alarm beeped as a Romulan Warbird decloaked a few thousand meters away from the station. "They could destroy us" Bree said "No there hailing and requesting permission to board" Brian said "We don't have a choice they could come on or destroy us were defenseless. Bree said.
One hour later in the conference room Jasper six station
"My name is Captain Lu Ja'Son of the Romulan Warbird To'nass" said the female Romulan "and this is my advisor Ta'Jorin" said Ja'son. "I'm Brian Carter and this is my partner Kim Bree" Brian said. After an hour of Bree and Brian telling there stories to Ja'son and Ta'Jorin. "So this is a civilian star base and independent system" Ja'son said.
"Yup the federation denied our request for aide so we declared this independent space" Kim said. "I think the Romulan Empire would like to help you" Ja'son said "I must make a call excuse me" Ja'son said.
Communiqué to Romulus-Romulan High Command
"This is Lu Ja'son reporting the station and system is civilian controlled. The station is Defenseless and has only basic operations and a small crew. The federation denied there request for aide in restoring the station. This system is independent from the federation I think there're willing to open negotiations, this could be beneficial for both our and there systems.
"This is President Ja'nar to Lu Ja'son open negations maybe we could have a stable cargo supply and ally it is very important that you make this succeed Lu Ja'son Ja'nar out." Communication terminated.
Negotiations
"We'd like a high powered shield generator, disruptors, a high powered computer core, subspace transmitter, building materials, fusion generators, replicators, and some ships at least warp capable with standard matter/antimatter drives. In exchange for these things we'll offer up to two Warbirds to safe passage onto our system and escorts back to the Neutral zone (that's if we get the ships.) We will also devote the second habitable planet for Romulan colonization your people can check on them but the planet will be independent form Romulan government. Your people can also serve on this station and crew ships but they must obey the orders given by the commanding officers and us. We will also provide aide and cargo trade between our worlds. Brian and Bree said.
"These conditions are acceptable. The Romulan government agrees to these terms and is looking forward to this friendship. "We will bring the components and some engineers to help repair the station" Ja'son said "That's acceptable" Bree said. " If its alright I'd like to accompany you back to Romulus, with some engineers to pilot the ships back to Jasper System when your on your way back with supplies uncloaked" Brian said. "We're not allowed in federation space" said Ja'son "This time we'll let you get away with it and if your just simply making a supply run to your allies under escort. There's nothing they can do except scan you and let you pass as long as you pass the scan you'll be fine" Brian said (This Brian Carter thought like a Romulan Ja'son thought she liked that)
