Chapter 25: A Visit with the High Councilor

On SS Acar in Lema Orbit –

November 21 – C Day 448

Acarma sent a message to Barana to update the approaching Antoran Fleet concerning the developments of the last few days. Barana had provided some upgrade information to enhance Acar's shields that were installed before leaving Lema orbit for Yannar. She was also able to provide the changes needed to enhance the FTL capability to 600,000 xSL. This would allow Acarma to reach any system in the Hegemony in hours. A similar trip in a conventional Yannarian warship would take more than 100 times as long. The remainder of the Antoran fleet was due to arrive late that evening.

The T-Raptor teams from the 4th and 20th Divisions were having way too much fun. The more they used the T-Rex imagery, the more adept they became in its use. Staff movement about the High Command offices was at a minimum and fear was rampant. The teams were able to systematically remove all data from the databanks they visited. The location of the Starkiller was still unknown and that was a serious concern for Acarma and the Acar rebels. The High Command was so focused on the mythological creature that they were not yet aware of the invasion of their data banks. The all too convincing evidence that the creature was real could not be ignored. The hope for identifying the location of the Starkiller weapon was a great disappointment. They could not know if the weapon had been deployed or whether its development was complete. The existence of the weapon was a danger to a great number of people and the clock was running. Acarma explained this to Kanchana and Barana. Barana suggested that one of their strongest T-Raptor teams might be able to help even though they were still some distance away. She noted that their strongest team was led by their Commander and they were well within his range. Barana explained what they could do and Acarma felt her excitement rise. She said that this could be the answer. She found it difficult to countenance such a capability but being aware of the havoc wrought by the teams from Divisions 4 and 20, readily agreed that it was time to do what they could. Barana then suggested a link with the team, the teams operating at High Command along with Acarma and Pell.

Shortly the link was established, introductions were made and Acarma and Pell explained what was needed to Barana and the team. Pell took an instant liking to Hank and vice versa. Barana indicated that she could provide a visual and audio link to the team in action through a mental link with Acarma. After the details were settled, Hank said, <Well this should be an interesting exercise. We can also have other teams prowling throughout the High Command's headquarters looking for whatever they can find. I think that High Command is going to be a bit more unsettled by the experience, I know I would be.
