“Watchmen .. watch. And defend. Not judge. Our programming is old. Those we watch for are old. And silent now for Ages. But for the Bane. There are those who would take advantage of the Gates within.” His answer was not precisely an answer, though it carried with it all they needed. Answers lay within.

Baumann’s voice came through again. [O] Shuttle to Bonaventure. Commander T’Leia has ordered us to intercept the raiders. We are requesting MACO support for potential armed conflict. Please confirm, Bonaventure. [O]

Baumann, AC

“Gates, what sort of gates?” Alison said. She had meant to say it internally, but from the looks of everyone, she realized that she had said it out loud. She was just going to look through the sensor data, but maybe the entity would provide them some answers.

((OOC… not sure why this didn’t stick the first time))

[O] They are coming, Baumann. Orders are to protect but not kill if it can be avoided. We have… permission… as it were, to assist those being attacked. But stun rather than kill where possible. And I want to see if we can get both sides to a discussion table. [O] Ari’s voice came over the comm. Her voice was struggling to remain calm, but he would recognize the worry in its lilt.

She then tapped the toggle for the shuttle bay. The comms crackled a moment then Ari’s voice came thru loud and clear. [O] Jharaas, permission to depart. We have permission to assist those being attacked. Stun when possible and kill ONLY when necessary. Let’s see if we can’t manage to get some order and perhaps a sit down with both sides. [O]

“Portals to Beyond. It is all the Watchmen know. Seek the Editor. The Editor knows. Our programming is limited in the event that our systems are compromised.”

Alison was frustrated. There wasn’t much that she could do sitting on the bridge. They needed to find out who this Editor was, and how they could get the Editor back in communication with the protectors of the sphere. But there was only so much that they could see from the ship, and the sensors were only picking up so much.

With nothing else to do, she started looking over the scans sent back from the shuttles, hoping that she would see something that they hadn’t seen before.

Ari began pacing as she awaited news from the sphere or the Marines. Biting her lip for a moment in thought, she then turned to Barr. “Alison… Can you tap into any system of the Sphere from here? If not, perhaps we can get Heiro’s help. If we can start checking the systems to see where the break is, maybe we can get the others online and able to help. The umm.... the Editors… ” It was a long shot, but if they could ‘wake up’ the system within the sphere, maybe it would help defend itself. She just hoped she wasn’t opening a Pandora’s Box in doing so. They were the intruders… it wouldn’t go well if the system turned on them.
