Sera'Zarda slipped her tall, slender form on board the ship in docking bay E94, named <em>Thrall</em>. It was a bit late, she knew. She had expected to be on board 20 minutes ago. Unfortunately, she had been delayed. Resting against a wall, she pressed a hand to her black environment suit's chest, catching her breath. She had made it in one piece and uninjured...barely. Looking at her omni-tool, she straightened up, walking to the comm room, where the group always met when parting with sensitive information. And the information she had was quite sensitive indeed.<br><br>Pressing a button, she closed her eyes, waiting for her breath to steady. Marathon runner, she was not. She was the ship's engineer, after all. No need to run in the engine room. Once her breath was calm, she spoke in her surprisingly deep voice. "Anyone else on the ship? I've got some sensitive information, and discussing it is a matter of some urgency. You know the place to get the information." Depressing the button, she crossed her arms under her breasts and waited. She was nervous. Not a usual feeling for her, but this time, there was a reason for it. Not the least of which were credit issues. Well, more like lack of credit issues. It had been two Earth months since their last mission, and the credits from that mission, while generous, were starting to get thin. They needed a new job more than anything. But this...this was more than just a new job.

				In the far end of the ship the sounds of footsteps grew higher. It was Kelneera T'Nassi who came running towards the comm room. "Sera's back, Sera's back" she yelled all she could. The asari entered the room to find the quarian alone. "So? Whats the new?" she asked with huge expectations. But the asari did not stop there. "Wait wait wait, Let me guess. You got me an Earth dog. Where is he? No that's not it". Kelneera took a deep breath before continuing in a higher tone. "You met someone. Is he cute?". She then stopped to look at Sera'Zarda with big eyes.

				"Oh yes of course. How silly of me". The asari looked around and found a chair to sit in. "Well im here so its just a matter of time before the others show up". She then looked back at Sera'Zarda with a slight smirk on her face. "But if you did meet someone,you can tell me".

				"via secur channel or is this intrapersonel briefing", Locke asked over his comm. some protocols weree necessary for Spectres to follow. It was odd that there were so many together. He'd worked with another Spectre once...but usually they kept him from knowing too much about the other ones.

				"roger that....heading in now", the human responded. Making sure to double check his armor and weapons before heading to the briefing. As a spectre he traveled fairly light.

				Sera looked up as Henry walked into the comm room. "Glad you are here. You are in charge, after all, at least for now. You need to hear this. I know we have been stretched thin on credits, so I planned to hack into the Blue Suns' weapon shipments and...relocate some of their credits. But I messed up. I got the wrong channel. Instead of weapon shipments, I got something more ominous." Looking at Henry, it was obvious that she was shaken, something that was not very common for her. "And what's worse, I think they caught me."

				"No need to panick", Locke told the quairian,"that'll only lead to more trouble. Follow protocol. Be smart about mistakes and potential mistakes. Scan the data on a closed system....separate your functions from the mainstay of the extranet, and set the VI to moniter the suns local and System chatter. Keep your eyes open, and your trigger finger loose." <br><br>the human was a veteran of clandestine operation and was intimately knowledgable with most organized forms of warfare.

				"Right." Sera nodded, starting to calm down. "I have the data encrypted on my omnitool, if you wish it sent to your quarters rather than inform you now of what I uncovered." She looked at him. "And my eyes are always open. It's the only way to survive, as I have learned." Pressing another button, she brought up the VI. "Vera, status Orange, monitor group Azul Star and System." With her words, the alert was automatically sent through the ship, reaching anywhere crew might be. At the same time, any Blue Suns and Systems chatter within range would filter through their systems, decrypting as it reached Henry's quarters.<br><br>Leaning back against the wall, she turned on her omni-tool. "Should I give you the information now in person, or send it to your quarters?"

				"Let's hear it now", Locke said as he stood at the bridge. "I was called out to listen to the intel, no sense in going back to hide in my quarters."<br><br>The spectre liked getting everything out in the open before deciding whether or not to use subterfuge or other tactics.

				"The information isn't just about the Blue Suns. It involves Eclipse and several other minor groups as well. Their goal is to bomb the Citadel Presidium. Each group is to move one part of the bomb to the Citadel within the next Earth week. After that is done, the bomb will be assembled and set off when the Council is meeting." Sera displayed the information on the console, which showed the names of seven groups: Blue Suns, Eclipse, Restan Reksha, Nilara, Terra Firma, Lorelei, Clan Nerona. "The troubling fact is what this represents. Blue Suns, turians. Eclipse, asari. Restan Reksha, quarians. Nilara, more asari, Terra Firma, humanity. Lorelei, salarians, Clan Nerona, krogan. Every major race is participating in this scheme...which makes trying to figure out who the main group responsible is."

				Sera sat in the engine room, thinking about the data she had recovered, the data that could have easily cost her her life. It was important for the Council, as well as for her commander. For that reason, she was willing to do this mission. However, if she hadn't been under his command, and been with herself, would she have taken the task? She didn't think so. And for Sera, that was troubling. She wanted to be helpful, to others as well as herself. But her own biases kept getting in the way. The Council wasn't C-Sec, nor did they have control over the higher-ups's actions behind closed doors. So why should they suffer because of her own dislikes?

				As the ship drew closer to illium from beyond the Mass Relay Locke donned his armor and weapons. They'd be taking a shuttle planet side. He wanted to make sure the ship wasn't detained and so a shuttle landing was best suited for the task.<br><br>"ground team assemble at the shuttle 10 minutes till we hit Illium's space, we'll go in and conduct our investigation planet side. The rest of the crew we are running on high alert, the only ship permitted will be the shuttle. If contact is lost, we'll run normal evasion procedure. Do not open the contact file till we've been out of contact for 48 hours. Keep me posted", the human said. <br><br>Locke had been doing this long enough to plan for the worst...which made him sort of pessimistic for a Spectre, though he had a high survival rate.<br>&nbsp;

				Lock approched the shuttle. unlike other officers, he made a point to do his fair share of work, aside from leadership. though that was what happened when you busted you hindside from enlistment to officer. The spectre checked the boxes of supplies and the caches of thermal clips, heavy ammo, and additional weapons.<br><br>"Remember Illium is pretty, but it's just as dangerous as Omega, be mindful of who you talk to and how you buy things", Locke advised the excited girl. He looked at the quarian, yeah she'd stick out, but at the same time if they operated like professionals, then everything should go smoothe. The Suns tried really hard to avoid bad PR in the major settlements. Illium was stock full of their clients, and they wouldn't want to lose busness.
