Zaracal was having none of this as he said, “Lieutenant Commander Xitt.... Show me your official transfer orders and promotion paperwork and if they are in order I’ll be on my way. However of you try to pull a stunt with me like you did on the Andros, I’ll have you locked up.” Zarcal had been captain of the USS Andros when Xitt was a recent graduate of the academy. The Andros wasn’t a fancy or shiny new ship by any means, it was a stalwart little machine that was cramped, stuffy, old, and temperamental. But it was Zarcal’s first command and Xitt’s first post after graduation. Onboard he thought he had heard that he was going to get promoted so he replicated himself some pips and started prancing around. When called out by Zarcal, who as a young Captain was a but more brash than he was now, Xitt was incensed at the slight and yelled at the Captain who had promptly thrown the new ensign in the brig. Suffice to say Xitt and Zarcal aren’t the most friendly pair towards eachother.

With a flick of her wrist, Geri rolled over a couple times, as if scratching his back, but was now directly behind Xitt and came to his feet, eye focused as he crouched back, ready to lunge. “You have a history with Cpt. Zarcal, not only that you have a very disappointing habit of blaming him for your failings. Not uncommon for those unworthy to blame those to protect the rest of us from individuals such as yourself. Beyond a coincidence that you choose Cpt. Zarcal’s ship to commander.” She held out a two PaDDs, one to Zarcal and one to Xitt. “Your transfer orders and promotion records. Would you care to explain to us what is wrong with these, or should I state the obvious?”

Xitt looked over them furiously. He wanted so badly for the promotion to be real, he had made up what he thought were great fakes! Imperceptible and untraceable! At least that’s what was promised with Discount Dave’s Spycraft Warehouse. He made some little utterances of protest, some little waves of his arms and a lot of glares at both individuals who were ‘robbing’ him of this promotion.

She waited and let the silence extend to the uncomfortable level, “They are poor frauds. First and foremost you forgot to physically sign them. Second, there is no Admiral Immaduche. And your little command course, the site says in big bold letters of every page, it’s a joke course, for fun. It does not entitle you to any command position or promotion. There are,” she turned to Zarcal, “Several of these sites are available, made for enjoyment. The more studious find the more reputable ones and use them as a study aid, but Xitt here, knows it was fake.” She turned back to him and tapped her head at the temple knowingly. “Don’t you Xitt?”

Xitt was fuming now, if it were a cartoon there would be smoke rising from his ears as he started to yell. “Stop the steal! This is my command and I refuse to acknowledge any command except my own!”

OOC: OMG I see what you did there....

“Lt. Cmdr Onnyabum you are under arrest for treason, mutiny, forgery, and behavior unbecoming an officer, by order of Star Fleet Command and the Federation Council.”
Brenna reached behind her back producing a set of cuffs. Suddenly, Geri and Freki and Fenris all began a very low, more felt than heard, rumbling growl. Brenna made no move to quiet them. “Whatever you are thinking, stop.

Xitt glared at the COP, having never found out her original role onboard as he turned to run around her, hearing the dogs and allowing the stress to take hold, panic running through him mixed with rage.

Brenna sighed, “Why do they always run?” She pointed at City and issued two commands, “Bring Pass auf.” Or Fetch and guard. Geri and Freki and Fenris all lunged at that moment on City, tackling him, grabbing hold of his uniform by the shoulders and abdomen and drug him despite any effort to get free. They dropped City and Brenna’s feet, but stood over him growling softly. She offered the cuffs to Zarcol, “Would you like the honors?”

Zarcal smiled as he accepted the handcuffs. “You know Lieutenant Commander I have to say that in the sciences I never did get the opportunity to make arrests, I usually stayed away from such things. This though? This will be very rewarding.” He leaned forward and clasped the cuffs around Xitt’s hands and stood. “Lieutenant Commander Atoded as Chief Intelligence Officer and the seniormost security officer present I release Lieutenant Commander Onnyabum to your custody. Lieutenant Commander Onnyabum I hereby strip you of your rank and suspend any orders given. You are a disgrace to Starfleet.”

Brenna picked up another PaDD and took her time going through something on it. “Please place your thumb print here, Cpt.” After he did so she transferred the arrest notice right into the security logs, using her her intel clearances and then walked over to Xitt and rolled him to his back taking away his combadge and his pips. “You don’t deserve these.” She stepped back and with a small hand signal the dogs backed off. “Computer initiate site-to-site transport.” Suddenly, Luna was standing by her banging her hind legs on her feet and ankle to get Brenna’s attention. “Computer hold that order.” She bent down and picked Luna up, the tiny Mini Rex had something in her mouth. “Oh good girl, Luna.” While everyone had been busy watching the dogs and Xitt, Luna had wiggled her way into Xitt’s pocket and pulled out a very small device. Brenna took it from her, and then set her down after giving her a piece of Papaya fruit. She handed it to Zarcal. “Xitt has been carrying around this recording device. It will be interesting to see what’s on it. Computer lock on to bio signs of Lt Cmdr Onnyabum to brig cell 3. Once transport is complete initiate cell lock down.” The computer trilled and Onnyabum disappeared in a swirl of blue light. In the Brig the arrest orders from Star Fleet command with Zarcal’s signature and thumb print registered in the computer and orders that no one was to speak to him without Zarcal’s approval appeared on the screen. “I suggest Captain you input your command codes. The senior staff is going to want to know why the ‘CO’ is in the brig. And I’m sure the COS isn’t going to be too happy with either of us right now, since he wasn’t in the loop.” Then she tapped her combadge, =^=Atoded to Bellini. Could you come to my office please. It’s concerning that problem we discussed earlier.=^= Bellini was the only other person on board who knew who and why Brenna was there.
