"All decks this is the Captain."
Once again everyone on board the Saratoga paused and listened.
"Both the Saratoga and the Enterprise will be working together to hopefully find away to get them
back home. The Enterprise Senior staff will spend about four hours gathering data aboard the Saratoga
before returning to the Enterprise to continue our collaboration from there. All of you are to give Captain
Kirk and his crew your full cooperation.
"As I've told my Senior staff I'm now telling you- I'm counting on each and every one of you to give
your best. The way you always have.
"Kirk out."

Alyen winced. He had done more than just hear the words of his Captain. He had heard the pain in his

She turned to Rodriguez. "Sir, can I be excused for a few minutes?"
Saratoga Corridors
Both Nlians made their way through the ship's corridors.
Their Soul Brother needed them both and he needed them now.
