After leaving the transporter room, Shara beelined for home. She stepped into their space and immediately knocked on his officer door. But rather than go in, she moved over to their living room sofa and sat down, stretching her legs out and crossing them at the ankle. Because she didn’t request to come in, this was their sign they needed to talk. As she sat there, her mind was buzzing.

The door stayed closed for a moment after she sat and then slid open. Micah was dressed in dark blue tactical pants and a black t-shirt that seemed to make his muscular build look all the more solid. On the t-shirt were red letters that said ‘I Have 2 Beautiful Daughters. I Also Have A Gun, A Shovel, And An Alibi.’ He walked towards Shara and took a seat in the chair next to the couch and leaned back, eyes locked on her. “What’s up?” he asked plainly, but there was a tell-tale glint in his eye that she knew spoke of mischief on some level.

A tiny smirk tugged at her mouth as she drank him in. “Well, as much as I’d like to just have a little quick fun before I get back to work, my work actually involves you.” That made her grin outright. “We have a new assignment. An ‘all-resources-you-need-assignment’, which I personally love because it sure as hell beat scrounging on some back water world trying to survive at the same time as doing the impossible. “Fed Sec is being tight-lipped about a situation the Asimov is now tasked with investigating by Admiral Oleg herself. Dead Fed Sec agent dressed as a clown crashes into a Federation Ambassador’s residence on Seferian Seven with a Fabergé egg in his hand. Ring a bell?”

Micah took a breath. “Yeah… Agent Patrick Coleson. I actually trained him.” he said flatly. His jaw clenched and he exhaled slowly before forcing himself to relax. “Faberge egg, Intel snagged it, no more information forthcoming between them and us. That about sum it up?” he asked sarcastically.

Pikelsimer, FedSec

“Initially, yes. But…” She studied him for a moment wondering how personal this would get for him. Micah didn’t take people under his wing lightly. “We have the egg. And there was something inside that is the subject of our investigation.” Shara blew out a breath. “Do you know what Coleson’s assignment was or how he came across the egg?”

~Shara Calloway, CIO

Micah shook his head. “Nope. FedSec compartmentalizes operations even more than Intel. I do know who the case officer was for his assignment, though. As far as the egg goes, I can tell you that is is linked to a whole history of crimes stretching back a few hundred years. If that is the actual egg, that is.”

“You think it’s a fake?” Shara said, leaning back into the couch as she appraised her spouse. Surely Oleg would have verified its authenticity, right? But in this case, with so many unknowns, Shara wasn’t leaving anything to chance.

~Shara Calloway, CIO

Micah shrugged. “No idea. But I don’t think the egg is really all that important. It’s been a focal point for theft, murder, adultery, blackmail, assassination, confidence schemes, fraud, divorce, marriage, kidnappings, extortion, and pretty much any other crime you can think of. And there are like a hundred known forgeries of it. But you said there was something in this one. That’s new. So someone knew the egg was highly visible, and they hid something in it? To me, that means they wanted whatever was in it to be found.”

Pikelsimer, FedSec

Shara drew in a slow and measured breath, focusing her attention fully on him. “We’re investigating a covered up massacre from the Dominion War years. Have you heard of a settlement called Shiang-Gui?”

~Shara Calloway, CIO

Micah’s brow furrowed as he thought. “Hmmm… not that I can recall. Where is it? And what do you know so far?”

Pikelsimer, FedSec

“I haven’t checked into the physical location, though that’s my next step once I delve into what I can get access to, but the settlement was in a small area affected by the war but the Maquis, Dominion and Cardassians had no presence whatsoever. So they were pretty much minding their own business when satellite footage noted a starship entering the orbit and then opening fire. Destroyed everything. Here’s the kicker… the ship’s class was easy to peg but it was unmarked: a Sovereign-class ship. It was one of ours. I have people looking into the registries and seeing if we can determine if there are any unaccounted for vessel in the class, but suffice to say our orders are to find out who is responsible for the massacre so they can be brought to justice. And someone is out killing whomever had possession of the egg because they don’t want the information to be made public.” This all played a little too weird in her mind. She remembered being a colonist just minding her own business, but at least her and the others could fight back. The people at Shiang-Gui never even had a chance.
