Part 52

T'Pau sent a message to Amanda via diplomatic pouch. She took the missive and went to out to the small garden to read it. It was not addressed to Lady Amanda the wife of Ambassador Sarek but rather to the leader of Altair 7. She took a seat and opened it with some trepidation. What could T'Pau want that required such care in the delivery method?

Amanda read the message and smiled. This she could do. She picked up a com and called Heather, Adrianna and Jamie.

"Adrianna I would like you to bring Garak along with you please."

"What is wrong Amanda?"

"Oh nothing in fact I have some potentially good news for him. So could you hurry please."

"All right. Will Sarek be there?"

"If he gets back from his meeting with Felix. Actually it might be best if he is not here for this."

"Ah, ok." Adrianna said. "Mother, Heather and I are on our way over. I texted Garak and he will join us too."

"Good, this concerns him most of all."

"Ok now you have me worried." Adrianna said.

"Don't be it is a good thing I think. That is if he is clever enough to make it work it will be a good thing."

"OH boy...what have you planned? Amanda Garak is walking a thin line now."

"I know Adrianna and this might just give him better footing. Trust me, I would not risk him nor would T'Pau. He is family now."

"T'Pau...oh hell this is big. You know Sarek will flip right?" Adrianna warned.

"Maybe but I am following T'Pau's request. She wants to break it to Sarek herself. So I think it will be ok." Amanda however crossed her fingers just on case.

Garak read the text message and cursed. "Humans are going to be the death of me yet. If you will excuse me commander my wife needs me. Something came up."

"Is there anything we can do to help?" The Klingon Commander asked.

Garak merely smiled. "No, not unless you are good at skewering rodents. It seems a rat has gotten into the house. Adrianna and Amanda are frightened and Sarek is at a meeting so I get to play exterminator."

The Klingon commander laughed at this. "I find it hard to believe so powerful ladies are sacred of a rodent?"

"Well Kavlar it is a human thing."

The Klingon laughed and slapped Garak on the back. "Interesting, well good hunting."

Garak scowled and headed off. Yes a rat by the name of T'Pau. I wonder what the old one has in mind now? Garak had to admit he did not like the Vulcan leader. She was to calm and controlled it freaked him out. He would much rather deal with T'Pol she was far more..."human". The old one had to have something up her sleeve and he had a feeling he was going to be in the middle of it...again.

The messenger came to Sarek and he sighed. He read the message and cursed under his breath.

"What is wrong Sarek?" Felix asked.

Sarek looked at him and sighed then without a thought handed him the message.

Felix read the note and said."Is she out of her mind?"

"I do not know. So do you join us in this?"

Felix mind raced and he said. "Well hell, of course. Best to know ones adversary. I guess like you I trust Garak so let's go meet your lady. She is not going to be happy with us there."

"No, likely not. But I to have orders. Let's go. Felix can you...."

"Yes Sarek no reports on this for the moment. I need more information before we act." Felix said. He grabbed his coat and followed his friend out. "I am glad we are allys."

"Yes, it has proven useful. It also will help me keep a clear prospective. Let us go see if we can begin a new era."

Felix snorted and grabbed a bottle of Ale as they headed out. They were all going to need a drink soon.

Sarek's brow rose but he had to agree they would need it.
