Timeline: MD03 - 0135

The room was dirty, a broken table on the right with a body in the middle of it, covered in planks and glass. Another body laying on the ground motionless. The whole room was dimmed and filled with bodies as a man tried to crawl his way towards the exit. Extensive head injury as he was afraid of something, very afraid "Help....help me..." He suddenly gets kicked to his back with his face now upwards "No...no please spare me, I did what was asked me" A dark figure appeared into the light as Sarah blond her had disappeared and changed back to her original color, pitch black. In her black uniform, she kneels next to him and puts a device against the side of his neck as sparks go through his body. The man was in agony of pain as Sarah stopped.

"Ripping people off, beating them up and you people don't even care if its a child or elder" Sarah spoke in a different voice then from the market, her original voice "I expected something more from you people. But hey this boring, plus useless" He tried his best to resist her, but Sarah simply activated the device and finished the job. The body became motionless as Sarah's eyes went up "Come out rookie, I can sense you"

Lieutenant jaygee Akoni Kapulé walked out of the shadows. Dressed in a black leather jacket and tee, with dark slacks, he asked her, slightly glaring. "Did you just kill him? " needing to know if what he had just been a witness too was what it appeared to be.

Picking up the hand of the lifeless body and letting it drop to the floor "It seems that way..." Sarah said with a smirk as she stood up and looked at him "Look we are not here to charity work. Starfleet officers are missing, we are operating in enemy territory and asking them for some sugar does not seem to work" She ending with a sinister joke

"So they are not Faltan, but enemies of the Federation?" he asked, walking around the room as he started taking a good look at them.

Pushing another body over "No, they are definitely Faltan" Sarah spoke in disgust "But they are also just puppets, damn it..." Sarah said with frustration as she shrugs and noticed a sound. She draws her knife and walks towards the sound of seeing a man trying to crawl away. She quickly placed the knife before his face in the wood "Hello mister..." The man wanted to turn around but Sarah stopped him "Naha you don't" She noticed blood from his ears and checked the other side "He is deaf...I must have overkilled with that sound grenade"

Akoni stepped over there, concerned she was going to finish the injured man off as she had the others. He leaned in towards her, careful to not let the man see him. "Shouldn't we leave him for Faltan Security to deal with?" he asked.

Taking a deep breath as she stands up and pulls him up to his feet "No no I don't know anything, I don't want to die!" She kept his head pointed to the floor as she pushed him toward the door direction as she throws him onto the street. With a side tap on her leg, the lights in the street burst and it became darker. The man looked confused and scared on the street, but took the chance given to run for his life. She rose her arm to stop the Lieutenant "Why take him to security when they might be in it as well?" Looking at him "This is way quicker to make me known, a dark figure attacking groups. This means tension and that means easier spotted groups. I get information way quicker."

He looked down at her arm, before locking his green-hazel eyes on to hers, "Most likely Faltan security will hear of you too. I don't mean any disrespect, I'm just trying to understand. This isn't how I was trained for the past year."

Walking back inside and looking back at him "The things you learn at the Academy are but a fraction of what you do in the field. I have done operations in Romulan, C’hakilian, Klingon, and other empires. I want them to know I am here, but I have received various nicknames out there. I wonder what I get this time" She looked at the door as she tapped her leg again as her clothing changed, her hair became blond and her eyes changed to from green to blue "But don't worry, my traders cover will be save" A different voice came from her as she tapped her side again changing back to her Starfleet uniform "Kapulé was it right? Yea you have not told me your name, but I do my research."

Akoni had taken in a deep breath as he soaked in what she had to say, and continued to watch her. "Lieutenant junior grade Akoni Kapulé," he replied, figuring she had to know he'd had more than academy training, been through Intel field training for the past year.

Nodding towards him "Basic skills in encryption I believe...or was it languages?" Sarah thought for a second as she kneels towards a body "Anyway, these groups are thugs first class, also known as vast cells. They operate on their own standards, get support, but that support is unknown. They take the orders and do what is required of them" Looking at Akoni "Puppets"

"And your trying to find out who that support is?" he questioned, uncertained how he felt about her methods, "And one of my specialties is languages, much more than the basic skills"

He was catching on, Sarah smiled a bit and stood up as she throws a notebook to him "Its mostly dialect, crack that and we get to know more about this group" Sarah gave the order and looked at the window "Use Faltan station information to get it, I will appear as soon as I can. I still got work to do here" Sarah said walking towards the window and looks carefully outside, it was still quiet.

Akoni had caught the notebook and slipped it inside the hidden pocket of his jacket. "I'll get right on it," he said, staring at her profile. Everything about her demeanor made him wonder how long she'd been doing this. He started to turn away, feeling the need to as well as that he should, but found himsel fturning back to her instead, "Anything else I can do for you?"

No one was standing at the window, Sarah had already made her move to continue her path towards creating a new intelligence network at Faltan. There were forces active and it was her job to get it.
