Ktarle sees pretty quickly that Vyrkris has been sedated - she's okay, but she'll be out for a while longer yet, unless she's given some sort of stimulant. Otherwise she'll need to be carried. The captain seems to be reading Ktarle's face, and says, with relief, "They didn't get to her, right? Okay. I'm going back to the others - bring her there as soon as you can. Oh - and Doctor? I'm sorry, your things were moved upstairs to the new room - we'won't be able to get to them before we leave. If there's anything in here, or if you know if there's anything Vyrkris would want with her, bring it along." When Trlene speaks up, the captain says, "Great idea - you'll have better luck from the crew lounge, though - one less layer of security to hack through. Let them know I'll be back as soon as we take care of this guy [she gestures to Zaedhrarrg and the still defiant Turk]." She takes one last whack at the guy with her stun rod, but gives up, as now the guy just seems to be looking for more. "Dammit. Alright Mr. Zadherg, as soon as the doctor gets her out, cuff im to the bed in there - if you can shut the door, great ('should have thought of that before I sent Trelene off. Oh well, " she says under he breath'). Oh, and you can have this for all the good it's done me." She gives him her stunrod.
*******************
A few seconds later, Trelene arrives at the crew lounge to see the others conferring about hatches and emergency shafts, etc. There are a two workstations on one side of the lounge, and she gets to work at one of them. At this point, the captain comes back, and takes in what's going on, and says, "All right. Let's get to it. Now, I gott be honest. Things are working out a bit differently than I had originally conceived of them in my perfectly thought-out plan [the sarcasm is quite obvious in her tone]. By my thoughts, the HiranuCops wouldn't have had time to get involved before Trlene and I just carried Vyrkris down to one of the waiting boats and it would be hours before anyone on board discovered than anyone but me was missing from the ship.
"I admit...I had only hoped that you all [nodding to those who'd been at the dinner] would see Vyrkris's tape and make sure it got out in time for my trial [she chuckles just a bit]. I thank you for doing more than that. And now, If I'm remembering your resume's right, we should have more than enough skilled people among us to get both boats off for a rescue. That said, I'm taking sugestions on strategy. The doctor, Zadherg, and Vyrkris will be here as soon as they can. I can get the lift here up and running pretty quickly, but that leaves us in the cargo hold, not the lifeboat bay. The emergency shaft get us into the bay, but only one at a time. Either way, I think we want to be in motion by the time the ship's systems come back online. There were at least two hiranuCops down in the bay when they removed Trelene from the boat eairlier on. We have two more on this deck, subdued. That leaves two unaccounted for. There are six of my security officers, and I don't know where they are either. So. There we are."
*******************
In the time that's available (true hacking takes at least a day), the most that Trelene can manage is a brief survey of the conditions on the ship's network. The first thing Trelene notices after the initial look is that several systems are down: the lifts, PA, and security camerals are all inoperative and inaccessible via their normal controls. The following (relevant) channels are open on the ship's internal comm network:
HiranuCorp VP of Operations Waled Nells-Corzin <---> HCSecOp Alenu Henuri
Security Chief Eofarlehaefa os Khosari <--- HCSecOp Wyrni Mokari
Security Officer Lurim Benruli<--- HCSecOp Wyrni Mokari

If she can find any medical supplies in the room, she will wake up Vyrkris. If she can't, she will motion to Zaed to lift the girl. "I can't do it, though I could help you if you need it." She will then scrounge around the room, picking up anything that looks useful and stuffing it into a bag or pack. If she can find something that looks like Vyrkris's things, she will get that. After a few minutes (no more than 4), she nods once and walks out. "Do you know the way?" she asks Zaed in Galanglic distractedly. "I missed the grand tour."

Saanath shrugs.
"I'm not armed.
"What if we sent some down in the lift, the armed ones down the shaft. The approaching lift should distract the Hiranu Security a bit. I'll do it. I can just run around a bit and keep them busy."
ooc: How close is the hold to the lifeboat bay, and what lies between them, door wise.

The captain smiles wryly. "You got reflec on under that suit, have you? Just kidding, Saanath. It's a good idea, but I should go with you or instead of you - they're not likely to budge if I don't come out of that lift - five minutes ago, they thought (correctly, I might add) that I was hiding in there."doghead said:
"The lift comes out along the forward wall of the main cargo hold. is on that same wall, about fifteen meters to starboard - it's clearly marked. It's not normally locked, but...."
"As for weapons, that shouldn't be a problem, though I don't want any of my crew killed. Gani? Ishugi? You've just been disarmed - and knocked out, by the way - Lie down, and look...injured. [she collects and redistributes their weapons to any who want them.] Three laser pistols, two stunrods, and one laser rifle. Zadherg and the doctor got another pistol and rifle when they tok out the HiranuCop down the hall. Some of the HiranuCops carry tasers, but neither of the boys on this deck seem to be. The lockers for passengers' weapons are in the cargo hold, but that doesn't do us much good until we don't need the weapons any more."

OOC: There isn't much in the way of Ktarle's regular medical equipment, though each stateroom is equipped with a basic first aid kit in the bathroom. The blood sample in the fridge is all that remains here of Ktarle's possessions. The only thigs here that Vyrkris might want are a change of clothes and her diploma, resume, and job hunting materials - her portocomp looks to have been removed earlier.Seonaid said:

"I'm coming" Tomas moves forward after getting back from his room and reaching the back of the group. He takes a pistol and makes it ready just in case.
"I use to be an Navy engineer, so if we need to do anything technical down there I can help, and I've got the combat experience covered too."
He goes follows looking into the Vargrs face and then to the big man leading the way...

For a moment Saanath considers a stunrod. Then he realises that an unarmed dufus is more useful that another soldier. He turn to the Captain.
"I'll go down the lift. Just some dumb farmboy looking for a mechanic ta fix the electrics 'cos they be on tha fritz 'n all. You'd be surprised where some of the our passengers managed to get themselves ... well, maybe not.
"They aren't likely to shoot first, and even if they do get a little rough, it will keep em occupied like.
"You're welcome to come too but that might kinda spoil the effect.
"No objections?
"Right, lets sort the timing.
