Vitor’s eyes widened as Dharan spoke. His smile was now gone as he considered all they had learned now. Zoy was taken by Bajoran fundamentalists.
By ship which meant they needed to track them as quickly as they could.

Another concern was how the Spaceport authorities neglected the Bajorans ship.
If that was due to bureaucratic incompetence or kidnaping complacency it was to be found out yet.

Silveira: That’s not good.

Munro reached out to Dharan placing her hand on his shoulder.

Munro: Listen to me. You did really good. You should be proud of yourself, your instincts were right and you followed them. If it wasn't for you we would be in the dark. Can you take us to Spaceport, we need all the information you have on that ship?

Dharan nodded. She indicated to the others to gather round.

Vitor turned to Tarsan before turning to Munro.

Silveira: One way or the other we need the Spaceport logs. And we better alert the ship.
::Vitor shook his head:: Kosst Amojan… We never get the easy ones…

Tarsan: Who are the uh... ::trying to pronounce it right:: Kosst Amojan?

Silveira: They are followers of the Pah-wraith. Who are the… ::Vitor tried to find a proper word, but couldn’t choose a better one:: Antagonists to the Prophets. You know, the beings that live in the Bajoran Wormhole. The Kosst Amojan have been flagged by Starfleet security.

Munro nodded.

Munro: Yes, the USS Ronin encountered over a year ago. Just before I joined them so I don't know the full details and much of the records were sealed by the Department of Temporal Affairs :: sighs :: Lt. Vailani was part of that operation on Bajor.

Tarsan: Oh that's definitely not good. ::pausing:: How do I spell that?

Vitor smiled at Tarsan.

Silveira: K, O, S, S, T, A, M, O, J, A, N. But don’t worry we can always spell check the report

Munro smiled at him.

Munro: We should go to the Spaceport.

Tarsan: response

Vitor turned to Munro and Dharan before speaking.

Silveira: We have to get those logs. I know it might be too much to ask Dharan…

He tipped his head to Munro, since she had made to establish a sort of rapport with Dharan.  

Munro: He's a Federation citizen, Silveira. Rylor Spaceport too :: serious :: They don't have a choice.

Munro moved to Dharan.

Munro: Can you beam us up to your command centre?

Dharan nodded.

Dharan: :: removes communication device :: Four to beam up to Central Command. Authorisation 45928sa7656. Shouldn't take too long.

Tarsan: response

Vitor nodded.

Silveira: Alternatively, how can we do that fast?

It took several moments and they were beamed up to …

((Command Centre - Rylor Spaceport))

Vitor arched an eyebrow as they materialized. His gut feeling felt like something was off.
He quietly muttered to Tarsan.

Silveira: I don’t like this.

Tarsan: response

Some of the Spaceport approached, but there were also Starfleet officers there. Particularly one Intel, denounced by the black in the uniform.

Intelligence Officer: I'm Lieutenant Commander Mura :: hands over a PADD to Munro :: I have orders from Starfleet Command.

Munro: Orders?

Munro looked at the PADD.

Munro: Lt. Vailani is a member of our crew, we have -

Vitor decided to jump in and stepped to Munro’s side.

Silveira: We won't be pushed aside on this.

Tarsan: Response

Mura: I understand :: sympathetic :: I don't have the authorisation to provide any further information than what is included in that report. But please understand that returning Lt. Vailani is a priority.

Munro: A priority! She's our crew and we won't just leave her.

Vitor tipped his head and narrowed his eyes. He wasn’t sure but he had a feeling he was fuming from his nostrils.

Silveira: You better let us in on what’s going on, because when Fleet Captain MacKenzie hears about this there’s no airlock far enough.
The Artemis isn’t a simple patrol, we are commanded by a Flag Officer.

Tarsan: Response

Mura: Commander, you aren't just leaving her. We have an entire network of analysts and intelligence operatives spread across hundreds of outposts, stations, starships in every Federation territory and beyond looking for her :: resolute :: We will get her back to the Artemis, we have reason to believe that she won't be harmed. You can trust us.

And just like that Mura hit her commbadge and transported off the Spaceport.

Munro: Ensign Tarsan, return to the Artemis. I want you to run a multiphasic scan of the area, I'd like as much information on that Bajoran transport as possible.

Tarsan: Response

Vitor opened his arms in frustration.

Silveira: And that’s it?

Munro: That's as much as we can do. The orders from Starfleet Command are clear. This is not our investigation. I'll report to the Captain, maybe she'll be able to find out more.

Vitor had to take a deep breath, deep enough he was fairly certain he had taken all the oxygen from that part of the Spaceport, not to say what he was thinking.
He nodded to Munro, but he sure wasn’t happy to leave things that way.

oO Zoy we will get you… No matter what… Oo
