Excellent, this should save us some time. And what about the cargo ship you intercepted?

One of your colleagues will be running this route and intercept your distress signal then. In the meantime, I must insist on your silence regarding these events.

What, you think I want you coming back and finishing the job if I talk? Just get out of here, Independent. We’ve spent more than enough time together. Over and out.

You have no idea what you’re doing! We conduct supply runs for a civilian facility on Wuqenat.

It’s a terraforming colony consisting of nothing but Andorian scientists, engineers and their families. This isn’t sanctioned or supported by the Federation, they’re out there on their own!

I am afraid we are acting under circumstances larger than ourselves. We must insist that you relinquish the coordinates of your supply source.

I’m sending the damn coordinates to you now. When I agreed to help the Andorians, I never said I’d put my own life on the line for them.

Commander, I have detected one of the cargo vessels that Jakkon described. They do not appear to regard us as a threat. Attempting to hail them now.

Independent, why are you hailing this vessel? As far as I’m aware, we do not have any business together.

I must insist on your cooperation. We understand that you are a designated cargo transport vessel. You will relinquish the source of your supply to us at once.

Good work, Dahno. Return to the retrieval effort in Imgra. There was a lot of valuable cargo and technology on those ships. Salvage what you can.

Now, onto our guest here. Would you care to tell me why you’ve openly provoked the Orion Syndicate today? Do you perhaps harbor a death wish?

We had reason to believe that the slave colony on Dejugei contained known associates of ours. We were compelled to act.

Underboss Jakkon

Well now you’re compelled to pay back the debt you’ve just incurred. I’m not a petty person, Commander. I have no personal attachment to our stock aside from monetary value.

I understand what you did, but if you aren’t willing to pay for what you’ve taken from me, then you’re going to work it off. You’re going to do a few little jobs for us.

Your first job is in the Rigel system. We’ve been tracking a cargo fleet whose routes run through nearby systems.

As soon as they get a whiff of an Orion signature, they’re gone in a flash. Those ships are equipped with some impressive hardware, which makes me think they hold valuable cargo.

You’re going to intercept and ambush one of these cargo ships along this route and identify the source of that supply chain. I don’t care how you do it, just get it done.

Commander, I am afraid that I owe you an apology. It is not within character for me to act in such an impulsive manner.

It’s just… all of the signs were there. I wouldn’t have been able to live with myself if I hadn’t acted on my instinct.

This is understandable, Saru. However, this operation has not been a waste of time or resources. We were able to liberate an entire colony from the Orion Syndicate.

Don’t play coy with me, you wretch. The coordinates of your Station have been transmitted back to the Syndicate. You will comply or we will reduce you to dust.

Commander, we never counted on the Syndicate finding our Station. It would be wise to cooperate.

That’s right, listen to your digital friend here. Get back on that ship and come with me to Orion Prime. Now. Don’t keep me waiting.

And don’t think you can just take off in that Station of yours. The boss has eyes everywhere. We’ll know where you are.
