<Lieutenant Straylar, basement of Vadalican HQ>

Lectron: But--he rolled over, breathing hard, and said, "I need help, get me to sickbay."   

Straylar replies. "Okay one moment."  He stands up and taps his communicator but nothing happens.  It must be the building shielding the communications.  

"We have to get you upstairs to beam you out of here."  

With that Straylar guides the Lectron up the stairs.  On the way up he says to Lectron.  

"That was a pretty good kick there.  My phaser was low on energy because I had to use one of the energy cells for something else earlier.  I figured I would have just got his attention away from you.  But when he fell I knew it wasn't my phaser, it had to be your kick.  You must be working out quite a bit there.....when your not stuck up in the science lab for sixteen hours a day."

Lectron manages a grunt of pain as they cover the last steps into the upstairs hallway.  When they get upstairs they both lean up against the wall while they are recovering.  Lectron from his beatings and Straylar from the plague.  After a few minutes Straylar and Lectron manage to get up again and start walking towards the turbo lift.  As they are heading to the turbolift Lectron asks Straylar.

"Why can't we just beam up here?"

Then Straylar replies.  "The shields are up right now, we need to get upstairs where I left my tricorder holding the prisoners in stasis.  I have a device that will allow us to beam through the shielding."

Soon the two men are upstairs in the offices of the leader of the Vidalican HQ.  Straylar retrieves two more small discs from the back of the tricorder and places them on Lectron and himself.  Straylar explains a little as he is doing this.

"These will allow us to beam through the shielding."

Then Lectron asks.  "What about them?"  He points to the Romulan and the Slider.  

"The devices that hold them in stasis also have these discs inside of them."

Lectron nods as his keen scientific mind examines the small discs that will beam him back up to the ship and he thinks.  "Interesting.  I wonder if I can make one of these myself?"

Straylar stands back and taps his communicator.

"Straylar to the Constable"

"Yes Straylar?"  Straylar receives the thoughts from the constable within his mind.

"Constable I have uncovered the Romulan connection to with the Vidalican party and I would like to bring them back up to the ship for questioning.  The second minister pledged total cooperation from everyone so I don't suppose their will be any trouble with what I'm doing, right?"  Straylar thought.

"Affirmative Lieutenant Straylar.  I am with the Second Minister now and he gives his go ahead.  Besides we don't have any prisons here on Slater's Planet that can hold a shape changer of the Vidalican leader's ability and strength.  Make sure word of this does not get out amongst the local inhabitants.  It's against out laws to extradite our own citizens.  But per our private agreement earlier we will concede to your authority.

"Thank you for your cooperation.  It is much appreciated.  Expect Lieutenant Allirog in about three weeks."

"Very well."

"Straylar out."

Straylar turned to Lectron and asked if he was ready.  Lectron gave him the affirmative and Straylar pressed the button to beam the four beings aboard the Lafayette.
