On

The Pakled ship reached the perimeter of the area where two Raptor class fighters met them.

[ No advance. This are is restricted.]
" This is 2nd Lieutenant John Dallas. I hitched a ride here to come home. What has happened on the station?"

[ Sir until you are confirmed I have to ask you to wait. No civilian ships are being allowed into M-69 space. ]

The Pakleds frowned.

" What about my pay?" asked the Captain.

" You'll get what's coming to you. Can you at least contact my wife? She is the station counselor Lt Isabella Veran-Dallas?"

[ I can do that sir.]

< On the Station >

Receiving the call from the outbound Pakled vessel Ltjg Nic Covenant summoned Counselor Isabella Veran-Dallas.

[ Counselor you have a message from a Pakled vessel.

Isabelle was at home feet up resting while reading through patient records, and updating files when the call came through. She hadn’t been expecting any calls least of all from a Pakled ship. “This is Lieutenant Veran-Dallas.”

" Isabella? It's me John....I'm home Imzadi."

Isabelle sat speechless for a few moments, she’d tried hard to believe that John was alive. “John!? Is it...really you!?” She wiped away the tears that were starting to run down her cheeks.

John cried as well as he heard his wife's voice.
" All I need is permission to come aboard and I'll show you."

“If permission is all you need you’ve got it!” Isabelle practically hit the internal comms. “Veran-Dallas to Ops, the Pakled ship needs permission to dock, see to it right away. I’ll be in the docking bay!”

[ We are on alert Lieutenant. No vessels are permitted to enter our air space.]

“Dammit! My husband is out there!” Isabelle wasn’t going to take that for an answer. “Hang on John! I’m get you home.”
Heading for the shuttle bay she didn’t even bother to request to permission before she boarded a shuttle to leave the station.

Amidst an approaching Ion storm John saw the small craft approaching.

[ Shuttle...is that you Isabella? Some how I know it is you.] John said as his inner voice reached out.

[ It’s me, I’ll be there soon] Isabelle responded concentrating hard on their bond. As her shuttle reached the Pakled ship she was quick to request permission to board, if the storm reached the ship at least she’d be safe onboard with John.

Meeting Isabella in the back of their ship they embraced just as the ship over taken by the Ion Storm.

" We have lost power." cried out the Pakled Captain but then it was restored as seemingly a tractor beam pulled the ship out of harms way.
