::ON::

< McCook >

Shortly the Crew was aboard, including Leviiah, as the Crew was getting ready to depart for Aurelia. Looking towards their newest crew member Devroe smiled "Welcome aboard the McCook Counselor and since I don't have an XO yet you may as well take that seat" then turning to her guest "And you may as well take the other seat to my left."

Lireh nodded and gingerly sat in the XO seat to the right of Devroe. She looked around, getting a feeling of the bridge. She tried to sit in a relaxed pose in the chair, to put herself at ease and possibly project an degree of confidence, which she hoped would grow as things progressed.

Leviiah waited beside Commander Devroe looked towards Lireh and smiled.

" This one reminds me of a great princess on the planet you call Crestacia. She ruled the raptors for 5 years before her death." Leviiah stated.

Lireh looked surprised. " Who me?" Lireh asked. "The closest I've ever looked like a princess is when I dressed up as one when I was a child." She added.

Tapping her chair comm "Lieutenant Uno are we good to get underway" the Commander inquired ready to get the mission going.

[ All speeds through Slipstream are available but the planet is not that far from the station.] Uno replied.

"Understood Lieutenant, thank you" Devroe replied with grinning at Uno stating the obvious "Helm take us out one half impulse until we clear the outer markers please."

"As you with Commander....going to one half impulse" Helm responded back.

Looking towards Leviiah "So tell me Sir, what's your plans once we reach Aurelia" Devroe inquired curious as to what was going to take place.

" To make things right," Leviiah replied.

"If you can make that planet habitable for sentient beings, then that would open up a whole new avenue for those on the base that plan on making that their new home" the Commander responded, hoping he could transform that world.

Leviiath walked about the entire bridge and then returned to his position beside Angel. He had clearly alluded to a grandiose promise to again restore the dying world to life again.

" You call us Preservers, and so we are. But then I see a crew of different beings working together harmoniously. When we save cultures, we do so because we wish to keep a spirit of them alive. " Leviiath began to say.

"And if you restore that planet, you'll be saving many different cultures instead of just one as they move from the base to the planet", Devroe interjected, turning to Lireh "Wouldn't you agree, Counsellor?"

"Absolutely, Captain," Lireh replied enthusiastically.

< Thirty Minutes Later >

"Commander we're approaching the moon and Aurelia" Helm called out.

"Drop us out of warp....one half impulse and establish a mid orbit.....I don't want to slam the ship into the moon" Devroe ordered as Helm complied.

"Mid orbit established Commander."

"Thank you Helm. Ensign Chavez, start scanning Aurelia and continue to do so.....I'd like a record of what is about to take place" Devroe instructed.

"As you wish Commander" Samone replied as she initiated the scans.

Turning to her guest "Leviiah looks like it's your turn to make things right" the Commander stated with a smile.

Leviiah closed his eyes as his staff began to glow a bright light which seemed to envelope himself. As it dimmed Leviiath disappeared as well.



< Aurelia >

Leviiath appeared all alone on the planet in a dead area with no apparent active life forms until he saw a small mound looking like a miniature volcano. A home belonging to a insect species not yet discovered by scanners.

He could not mere wipe this species out as that was against his creed and religion.

< McCook Bridge >

"Lieutenant Chavez how are the scans on Aurelia coming along" Devroe inquired wondering if Leviiah had started recreating the planet yet.

"The scans don't indicate any changes so far but I'm sure it'll take some time for him to get started" Samone replied.

< Aurelia >

Leviiath watched and smiled as the insects continued their lives unphased by his arrival. Looking about the dark pinkish sky a few bright stars pertruded the sky.

Pointing the staff upwards Leviiath returned back to the McCook to inform Angel his decision.

< McCook Bridge >

Though he was only gone a while Leviiath returned with news he didn't think Angel would like.

" I can not remake this planet. There is already life still thriving on Aurelia that can not be removed. But I can help your and you Commodore refresh this planet."

Thinking for a few moments "Refreshing Aurelia is fine.....would that allow some of the folks on the Base to be able to live there without the need for a lot of technology in order to survive" Devroe inquired hoping that would be possible.

" Yes all we have to do is recharge the sun that was in this system." Leviiath replied as if that was easy enough.

Sounding a light chuckle "And you make it so easy" as she paused "Although I shouldn't be surprised given your station in life and your obvious age; what ever that may be" Devroe commented.

" I am not offended by your humor. Essentially we are the same it is just I have been doing this longer. Your Federation is not so dissimilar. Our missions are some what different though. Your Federation combines your races where as we save singular races from becoming extinct. But creating a sun in this sector would save the moon and its species as well as offer life again to your Aurelia. " Leviiath replied.

"That sounds like a reasonable course of action" Devroe replied "Please excuse me for a few minutes."

There was something Devroe wanted to make sure of so looking towards Lireh "Counselor could I speak with you in my ready room for a few moments please" then looking towards Samone "Ensign you have the Conn" came the order

"Of course, Captain " Lireh replied, following her to the ready room, and stepping inside, the doors closing behind them.

"Please have a seat Counselor" Angel commented with a smile as she sat herself "I would like to know what your take is on Leviiah....is he being truthful or is he not telling us something."

"Honestly, I believe he is being sincere in what he says but, I do get the impression that he maybe omitting things. Not necessarily lying to us but holding back something which, he might not think is a big deal, but I might be to us. I am not empathic, captain, this is just a feeling based on what he has said and how it comes across.". Lireh replied.

She had similar situations with clients who were trying to be open during their sessions but were still not sure by how much they could open up.

< McCook Bridge >

Leviiath looked about the bridge and greeted all of the bridge crew and once he had charmed them he slowly walked into the turbo lift.

Moments later the Commander and Counselor returned to command. Looking around Devroe inquired. "Ensign Chavez where did our guest disappear to."

Samone was surprised at the tone of the question hoping she wasn't in some sort of trouble "He entered the Lift......I thought that was alright" she responded sort of quietly.

Tapping her Comm "Computer locate Leviiath" came the request.

Moments later the Computer replied "Leviiath does not exist on this ship."

Sitting in the command chair "He must be blocking our scans somehow" Angel thought then tapping the chair comm to open a ship wide "Mr.Leviiah please report to the Bridge at once" then she cut the transmission and would wait.

[ I am in your reactor room Angel. Come join me.] Leviiath answered back using the ships comm box.

"On my way" Devroe answered "Lieutenant Vin you have command" she stated.

" Yes captain " Lireh replied.She sat in the command seat.

Entering the Lift "Deck 5". Minutes later Angel exited and walked to Engineering. Seeing Leviiah talking to Uno she approached "Leviiah what are you doing down here; guests aboard do require an escort....regulations and all that" but she didn't take the incident too seriously.

" Angel did you know that even a speck of matter mixing with anti matter would annihilate all of us? This being Uno gave me a full description of how this matter/antimatter reactor works." Leviiath stated.

"So is this how you plan to reenergize the sun" Angel inquired hoping he knew what he was doing.

" I was content for a while to live on the moon. Then our people started to die. We were suppose to be safe there. But eventually even death found us. Death always wins Angel. Uriah was my warden." Leviiath repliled.

"I'm sorry to hear about your people but that's why we would like Aurelia habitable so they don't go through the same thing watching their people die because of their surroundings" Devroe replied.replied.

Leviiath listened to Angel and paused but not before Lt Uno successfully applied a Vulcan nerve pinch to his neck rendering him unconscious.

" He appeared to be malfunctioning so I applied a Vulcan nerve pinch to help relax him." Uno explained to Commander Devroe.

A very surprised Devroe just stood for a moment looking down at Leviiah laying on the deck then back to Uno "Please explain this malfunction you detected" she inquired knowing Uno was a special kind of being.

" His mannerisms were threatening to my engines." Uno said using a personal pronoun.

< McCook Bridge >

Sitting in the command seat, Lireh was doing her best to give the impression that she was competent to sit in that chair. She felt somewhat nervous, but on the other hand, the mere sensation of sitting there was one hell of a buzz.

Exiting the Lift Devroe walked back to command "Lieutenant Vin report." She ordered before returning to the center seat.

Vin stood up to allow the captain to take her seat.

"All quiet captain. Nothing remotely of interest to report. Everything ok with yourself?"

"Not sure at the moment" Devroe replied before turning her attention elsewhere.

Lireh was understandably concerned, but she held back from asking further questions, as now didn't feel appropriate.

"Helm set a course for M-69, best speed" Devroe ordered. Hopefully Leviiath can explain to Commodore Sureth, when he wakes up, how to reenergize the sun to make Aurelia habitable once again.

Leviiath was taken to the ships small sickbay where he would remain until they arrived back at the station. Uno had secured his staff and gave it to security for safe keeping.
