Sean didn’t like what his systems were showing him. A routine scan of the cargo bay in which the ‘box’ had been place under a protective shield suddenly read differently than it had only a few minutes before. Previously it had registered as completely full, but now... the crate was totally empty. His frown deepened as he check the security logs for anyone in the area but came up with negative access to the area reported. There hadn’t been a transport detected either, not from the Aldrin, the Vulcans, or whoever beamed them back to the Aldrin. None of this was making any sense. Just as he was about to report his findings to command something else caught his eye.

“Oh Shit!”

That couldn’t be right. The small craft inventory was indicating that a ship was missing. And not just any ship, one of the Valkyries was not where it was supposed to be. “No, No, No, Not that!” He muttered as he got up from his station to move to a larger console and run a visual scan of the flight deck. He then pulled up the vid for the cargo bay and placed them side by side. After a few more seconds he swore again, “Son of a b.... Commodore you had better see this”
