[QUOTE="Tun Kai Poh, post: 8514875, member: 6761960"] [B][SIZE=5]The Straggler, Part 5[/SIZE][/B] [SIZE=4] "Stay here, Lowell," Tabitha says quietly, laying a gentle but firm hand on him. She taps her comms. "Vera, get me a private line with Bannon. Let her know that Captain Petrie has requested and been granted asylum with Union and I have extended this offer to those of his men who are similarly inclined if she is agreeable. Unfortunately, it also seems that he no longer has contact with his ship. I'd like to inquire if this is on her authority or if things have gotten out of hand on the James I." Strike Captain Bannon returns to the doorway, her face grim. She sighs at the look on Lowell's face. "What did you think was going to happen? You couldn't do your job." "Why can't I talk to my people?" "They're not your people anymore. Several of your senior officers came to me. They were of the mind that you should be jailed or shot." "Wh-what?" Lowell sputters, unable to compose himself. "They're in charge now, and the last thing they need is you messing things up for them. They have to clean up the ship without you." "They'll purge the junior officers!" Lowell is red with outrage. Bannon looks over to Tabitha, shaking her head, then turns back to Lowell. "This wasn't entirely my idea. Believe it or not, you still have friends among the captains, and you have...well, their pity. It's not like we've been trusting you with our secrets for the past year, you know. This is the best way." Next: Cry for help[/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
