<center>''"Science and engineering have come up with reason to believe the goods the Lament was carrying were used to form an explosive combination; and it looks like it was sabotage." -Sal Taybrim''</center>

Lt Commander Falcon decides to head to the brig where Counselor [[Ashley Yael]], Dr [[Pon Pon]] and Ensign [[Lucien Landau]] are questioning Zel Rohan to little avail when an unexpected power surge rips through the security section and all power fails.  Zel immediately mobilizes, but instead of trying to flee he dives for cover as several deadly disruptor shots tear through the darkness and the security guards try to locate the assassin.  They are hampered by panic in the civilian section outside of security where an entire zoo full of animals have gotten out of their cages at the exact same time the power surge went off.  Finding themselves dealing with an experienced - and well planned - assassin, security forces connect with Lt Commander Falcon and try for a pincer attack.  It works, and the assassin - a human named Seth Ralston - is seriously injured and taken to sickbay.

Power is quickly restored and security moves out to do animal containment while Falcon tries to press information out of the shaken Zel Rohan.  The two have a history together - before Falcon joined Starfleet both were 'suicide runners' - pilots that specialized in making dangerous runs to deliver profitable cargo, frequently through restricted airspace.  After a bit of bantering and gentle threats Zel reveals that Drin Jerol, the first officer of the Annabelle's Lament is not only alive (Zel saw him on the MIranda VII Spaceport several days after the destruction of the Lament) but Zel firmly believes Jerol is actually Nacien Rixx, an ex-Orion Syndicate crimelord, and head of the criminal Jenatris Confederation.  It seems Rixx has been putting out assassin's contracts on anyone who had information about the Annabelle's Lament and Zel was the only one to make it off Miranda VII alive.

Falcon leaves after giving Zel concessions to help him recuperate in a far more comfortable arrangement than his former cell before making a beeline for the Ops hub.  If Nacien Rixx is involved, the weapons deals need to be stopped quickly.

<center>''::With each bomb that he found and dislodged, the task became easier. While the first one had taken the better part of a minute to pry lose, he found that by the time he got to this latest bomb, he could do get it off in under 20 seconds. He had made it a bit of contest with himself to keep getting faster. Not sloppier, just faster. He could take apart a phaser in the same time. One of the best in the unit. Marines took pride in their abilities.:: -Quintius Raisilius''</center>
