SRR Ra`KalenChapter Eight: Reports of the other Raiths
[RES Kalen: CO's quarters]

Raith was rather tired. He sat some what dazed on his bunk reading an ISD containing everything from his officers station reports to current intelligence data on SF, the SSS, the Tal`Shiar, The RSE, and all the known rebel factions. He had spent much of his day overseeing tests on the Kalen and getting to know her crew. Raith slaps his head recalling that he'd even sampled a delicious kiske his chief engineer had cooked on the warp core.

ACTION> A chime sounds at his desk indicating incoming communication
Atr`Raith>::gets up, walks to his desk, and activates the com channel::
NRvtr`Ronga>Jolan tru Arrain- I trust I am not disturbing au?
Atr`Raith> Na ...who needs sleep anyway.
NRvtr`Ronga> ::nods:: Menka. Just have some information au should appreciate. erei`Riov tr`Malus reported in just a few seuren-a ago...::rummages through some ISDs for a second:: He informed me that your plan was implemented flawlessly.
Atr`Raith>::straightens up:: Really!? Was Raith six planted too?
NRvtr`Ronga>::nods:: I will read au his message ::he grins and raises an ISD:: As expected the Tal`Shiar jumped when they finally heard that SF had acquired transwarp technology. An operative was hastily ordered to retrieve the data and as expected was detected after she had collected it. The operative was able to escape and steal a shuttle and make a run for the RSE/UCIP border. An SSS ship was launched to intercept her and did just across the border on the RSE side. The RES Kalen, recently launched from SB220, received the operatives distress signal and moved to assist her. The Kalen and the SS ship exchanged warnings and eventually opened fire upon each other. I [tr`Malus] had been observing had been perusing the Kalen for the past 3 days and were it not for the Ra`Khore's presence the Kalen, a K`Sejnik class destroyer, would have lost to the SS ship instantly. We decloaked and caught the SS ship off guard while the Kalen assaulted its front. Before the Kalen could finish off the SS I ordered my TAC officer to torpedo her. The Kalen took 2 quantum torpedo hits to her stern and exploded. We scanned the SS ship, located some surviving crew, and beamed five aboard. The highest ranking officer was a human named Col. Scot Bernard. Using Raith's mind copying techniques we were able to upload most of this officer's memory into tr`Raith six. Raith was then physically altered to appear like the Colonel and beamed back to the ship. I disposed of the 5 personnel we beamed aboard and left Scot / Raith with 2 other survivors on the SS ship. On other business Raith four ::tr`Ronga pauses and grins::
Atr`Raith>What is it rekkhai?
NRvtr`Ronga>::shakes his head:: nothing Malus just made a note about how difficult it is to maintain a intelligible log with multiple copies of au running around ::clears his voice and goes back to reading the ISD:: Raith should appreciate that the Kalen never once noticed the absence of her CMO... we got lucky on that one. The Ra`Khore is now en rout back to ch`Revellion and should arrive in 2 days. ::finishes and puts down the ISD::
Atr`Raith>::nods:: Menka. Very menka -this should turn out perfectly.
NRvtr`Ronga>::nods:: since the Ra`Khore, like all ships in the Kalen class, uses SF warp and power plant tech. no one will know we were involved. ::grins:: If your plans continue to work this well au are going to get that Riov promotion
Atr`Raith>::grins:: Hann`yyu rekkhai . Is there anything else?
NRvtr`Ronga>::shakes his head:: None -other than to authorize the next phase of your plan... And to inform au that another group in the Tal`Shiar have a similar one. I just received word that a team has been dispatched by the order to take advantage of t`Kethry's mental state and use her against Tomalak.
Atr`Raith>::nods:: we should be able to manage...
NRvtr`Ronga> Also a group from the SSS is getting involved: intent on letting the Tal`Shiar do the dirty work and reap the benefits for themselves
Atr`Raith> this is getting too complicated ::shakes his head::
NRvtr`Ronga> the Tal`Shiar will likely reach t`Kethry before au -I am sending their base's location to au now. Do whatever au want Arrain -this one is your show ::grins and closes the connection::
Atr`Raith>:: copies the mission info onto his ISD and starts getting dressed::
