Chapter Two Gems & Pearls
One parsec away from Star Base 23. There was a rebel Orion scout vessel having just raided a merchant vessel carrying Gems & Pearls heading to Earth for a special exhibition show for vendors.
The Orion captain Sirena had made sure there were no Federation vessels in the area to go after them for arrest. However this time around they were some what lucky with a boarding party surprising the ten man crew and its captain.
They had heard through there under ground sources about the fortune in Gems & Pearls. The raiding party of Orions coming abroad were able to find the special area for where all of the special jewels were being held.
And when the captains second-in-command Kiev beam back to the scout vessel with the haul. He was quite pleased overall with the entire operation.
"All right Kiev we need to head back to our original flight path with catching up with one of Star Fleet's shuttle crafts." He says to Kiev with his ordering request.
"Why a shuttle craft Captain?" He asked with looking over the manifest of the Gems & Pearls that was taken from the vaults.
"Because I have orders from my superiors to grab any one that might be in our flight plan. Understand Kiev?" He says with spitting saliva from the bowels of his mouth to make Kiev sick to his stomach.
"I understand completely with your request. Will it matter on just who or what might be on board the Shuttle craft?" He asked in serious tone of voice.
"That all depends who or what is on board. Get my drift Kiev?" He responded with moving out of Kiev's way in order to head for his quarters to rest. Later he's going to have some much needed entertainment with the Orion slave girls that are being held on the third level of the scout vessel.
"I got you Captain in every way. Now if you will excuse sir. I need to complete this manifest on the merchandise that was taken."
"Then do so Kiev. I have more important things that needs to be done later this evening." He advised with leaving the vault area for where the Gems & Pearls will be held until reaching there destination.
