“Um Styxx,” O’Neill looked at the Marine Lt and adjusted his hat. “You know I am all about religion,” he said in his slightly southern twang. The humor of his statement was not lost on anyone that could hear his comment. O’Neill only showed up for the holy trinity because Mrs. O’Neill had stated his presence was expected each week. Normally his presence included a few snores and jabs in the ribs during the hour service but like all husbands and fathers, he endured it. “But we got at least a team of three loose on this ship that started this whole rigmarole. We have two down on the bridge that you took out and the one in medical Peter escorted out. The standard procedure says that the team should be six so where are the other three?”

River looked at O’Neil and smirked “Way ahead of you” she said as she hit her combadge.

=^= Styxx to Qrow. Any luck finding those spies =^= she said into her com. River had figured the team working against them was a large one. As soon as she has been beamed out to face Da Mu she had ordered Qrow to start looking for primrose and the spies. She had made sure however that he cheeked on her wounded first. Qrow like River had no love for spies. Which some had thought odd as his late wife was a star fleet intelligence officer.

Adjusting his hat he turned his head slightly as if not wanting Jessa to overhear the conversation. “My guess is two are in security and one in engineering. Someone just beamed two people off the ship before Nash was able to shut down the transporters. Care to help me out in finding where these people are and then accidentally blow them out of the airlock?”

“I don’t intend to let them live long enough to get near an airlock” River said darkly

Jessa stared at Styxx with daggers in her eyes. “So was the offer to help me with the funeral just an empty platitude to get me to do what you wanted?”

Jessa Novar

River glanced at Jessa “Listen. take it form a master sass only gets you so far” she said simply “I will still help you with the funeral, but I must secure this ship first and deal with those who have plotted against us.” she said sternly pausing for a moment.

“At the risk of someone’s immortal soul. We are talking about an Elder here,” Jessa snapped. “I will not..”

However before Jessa could reply River raised her hand to shush her “Before you kick off again. Let me explain, these people will not honour your dead, they will have no moral problem with attacking the funeral and desecrating your elder body to further their own goals. I’ve seen their type do it before. I stopped them then and I intend to stop them again.” She said sternly but it was clear River was talking form the truth of experience.

Lieut Styxx (Marine OIC)

Jessa nodded feeling a welling up of emotions in her. She had no idea what she was going to do or how to do it.

“Sir,” a Marine officer came up to Styxx interrupting them. “We think we might have found the control room. Diplomatic suite 118. We have taken up a position in the hall and are waiting for your commands. Hold teams until you get their or take the room?”
