Mission:
Interlude - Day 1
Location: Draxx's spare runabout
Timeline: MD3 Late evening
ON:
“Captain,” Biggs sniggered. “Why are you always naked when I rescue your sorry arse?”
“I’m secretly a nudist,” Draxx informed his first mate dryly as he materialised on board an exact replica of his little runabout that “Ana”/ Rianni was now in possession of.
The bigger mans face remained impassive and he tossed him some clothes and put the cloaked vessel into a fast warp leaving the romulan’s ship far behind in its dust.
“How did you manage that?” Draxx asked.
“Ah one of the oldest tricks in the book. Sneaked up cloaked. They didn’t detect us. Managed to hack into their security feed. Took some footage of your sorry arse dozing in there for the last hour. Looped it. Beamed you out using one of our beacons,” Biggs said as if it was nothing. "Must remember romulan's tech also cannot see these. We should think about selling them you know. We have something here."
Draxx grinned and pulled down the top his first mate had given him over his shoulders. “Dare I ask about the guards in the brigg?”
“Ahhh just flooded in a little formula to knock em out. They will have some sweet dreams for a while as we peacefully slip away. By the time anyone notices we will be long gone.”
Biggs reached down and passed a bottle of something green to Draxx. Then pulled one up for himself.
“Don’t suppose you were ….”
“No Captain. I’m good but not that good. You lost your other little toy. I sent out a virus to it. I didn’t have much time. Might have been able to make it so they can’t do shit with it but getting it out. I had enough on with you,”
“Biggs,” Draxx nodded, “Not to worry. I doubt that’s the last time I see that Romulan. And when I do I am going to make her dye her hair back blond and buy me some ridiculously expensive Romulan ale to replace the one she stole off me, as well as my ship. If they work out what you did though, they ought to be giving you a job. Remember though, I pay better.”
“You don’t make me wear a stupid uniform, let me be with my own projects and I can eat what I want,” Biggs laughed. “Well when Zoe doesn’t catch me. Plus the entertainment of sticking around. Well let’s face it our life don’t get old. Interesting, not old.”
“You sentimental bastard,” Draxx clinked his drink to his.
“Who was the other broad?” He picked up another and took a drag.
“Colonel someone. Naught good to look at. Got some horrendous intel on us,” Draxx laughed. “Tried to threaten me. Wasn’t going far with that. Then she tried a proper proposition but sadly it wasn’t much payment wise. Would have helped out our favourite colour changing lady though. “
“Yolanthes not a consideration now?” Biggs asked
.
Draxx looked thoughtful for a moment. “As long as Zo is working for her, she’s a consideration. We are just not working for stiffs and miserable colonels. If we have to step in, we do it our way.”
“As long as you’re still determined to sleep with her she's a consideration you mean,”
“That too, I have a bet to win you know,” Draxx replied.
