Mission:
We are sick of this.
Location: Shuttle
Timeline: Current
Xavier walked into the shuttle they had stolen from one of the derelict starfleet ships. Cosmetic damage was was done to it, to simulate being in a battle. It was an older type shuttle one the cardassians would already be familiar with. So that wasn't one they would be worrying about. The cardassian uniform was something he could manage without. It was not something he wanted to get accustomed to, but if this went crossways... it might be more... longer than intended.
Melor was getting used to the outfit. He had on occasion worn Klingon custom which also was a lot heavier than a starfleet uniform so he was adapting quickly. He had said his goodbyes to Toni and Kay in private. Especially Kay had been emotional that he was going on such a dangerous mission.
Looking back, he almost didn't know who was approaching him from behind. "Our guest should be here momentarily."
The half Klingon waited patiently. So far he did not know much about the mission, just that it involved cardassians and was highly dangerous.
Kiara had organised her medical bag, having stowed it away she sat waiting along with the others.
The doors opened, and the Gil Molek walked in, looking at his 'fellow cardassians' sitting there. "I see your doctor has quite the ability." He replied. "Once we are out of the system, set course for Sector 364."
"Thats a highly contested area, one we recently lost to the dominion." Xavier replied as he noted the location.
"Our first clue to our destination, and our first test to see if we are all who we appear to be." Molek replied as he looked to the room. "Jem Hadar will begin by ransacking this shuttle, any and everything will be searched. We will be questioned. So we need to get our story straight."
Melor really did not trust the man but there was little he could do about it, just be on his guard and protect the others on this mission. 'What is our story?" He asked.
Don't get Killed." Keern warned with a slight grin. "Autopsy will tell everything, up to that point they are whom they say." He winked. "Any complaints can be logged with me afterward."

Molek took his seat. "Our story is that while we boarded a federation starship, we got trapped in a shuttle bay and escaped. scorch marks will indicate that . Names I have provided with you on the padds you received, are some that accompanied me that didn't make it." He paused. "siblings. We all want this to happen, to rescue the people who can provide information to your starfleet."
"Way to paint Federation as the Nice Ones of the Galaxy there." Keern sarcastically noted. "Any puppies you want us to kick also?"
"Doctor, you are not helping." Melor said softly.
"Sorry." Keern said. "need to back order that brain to mouth filter."
Kiara looked at Molek. “So I guess my medical bag will be items we managed to take from Starfleet? They’re not exactly Cardassian equipment.”
"Very good doctor." Molek replied, "All shuttles are equipped with medical supplies are they not."
"OUr ship is being sent for Medical mission; if you need some more things for that bag than normal since all shuttle will have expanded medical mission field kits." Keern noted. "I mean if that helps."
“They are” she grinned. “I never thought before asking the question.”
"Dont mind me." Molek replied. "My tendancy to report the obvious... sometimes gets the best of me."
"Shuttle one, you are cleared for departure." Ensign element replied over coms.
Xavier nodded. "Very well lets get this show on the road shall we."
