Terry: What I do know is that the planet is in need right now more than ever and I will be damned if I leave them to the Elibisi... especially to what ever attacked them..
O'Connor I want you and Rissa to study these readings and cross check them with reports from both the Federation and any other government. Work with Medical to find out what happens with these readings.
Wade call in some help.. Right now they can't really attack us with their power grid down.. and we need to help them..
O'Connor: Aye, sir.
*His console chimes.*
Sir, there's an unauthorised access on Deck 10, Gymnasium.
Colas: You don't have to be a genius to guess who that is...
*Meanwhile, Sasha's Quarters. Tara A is waiting outside, eyes closed and controlling her breathing.
Terry: Wade... take the team down there.. Xi.. You have the comm. I have a family thing to take care of and an appointment to keep..
*When they get to the gym, they find Tara furiously punching a punching bag, finishing of with a middle kick before seeing them. She backs off from the bag and wipes some sweat from her forehead.*

Terry: I figured this is where you would be.. plus I also hear that you met Persi..
Terry: He is a good kid.. Lost his adopted father not to long ago. Why is that? If you don't mind me asking.
*Tara stops hitting the bag, looking sullen as she goes over to her bag on the bench and takes out her PADD. She turns it on, tapping the screen a few times, before passing it to Terry. It's a photo from school of her and Mara.*

Sasha: I'm not going to.. Its not going to fix anything..
*Tara A looks at her, before dropping her arms to her side.*
Tara A: So when I don't want a fight, you try to break my jaw, but when I do want a fight, you just stand there and take it? See, this is why I hate you; you're nuts!

Sasha: Which is why I am apologizing.. I was wrong to do that.
Sasha: Which is why I am apologizing.. I was wrong to do that.
Tara A: You really think that you punching me is what this is about?! In sickbay, I was ready to take your head off for that! If that was what this was about, you wouldn't have had a chance to apologise for it!

Tara: Terry, you don't understand! I killed her! ME!
Terry: You didn't..though.. You did not plunge the knife in did you? I had to kill someone... and I did not want too.. nor did I have much choice. The army that I trained to go to war with the Elibisi and the Indoctrinated.. Even now I am starting to feel weighed down..
I am going to show you something... something I fear to tell your sister..
*He places a finger on her head and she is viewing the memories of his from his time among Persi's people.. His first real kill... the war with the Elibisi on that world... his father getting knifed infront of him and being unable to save him.. or stop him from being there.. *

Sasha: What is it..
*Terry sighs and rubs his head.. *
Terry: Wade... take the team down there.. Xi.. You have the comm. I have a family thing to take care of and an appointment to keep..
Tara A: Your brother is in critical condition. Not that I care, since apparently I don't give a **** about him!
*She shoves Sasha back inside and walks in.*
You think I don't care about your brother, b****?! I LOVE HIM! You think it doesn't hurt to think that this MIGHT be MY FAULT?!
*She lets out a rageful grunt before slapping Sasha hard around the face.*
I am DONE with YOU! You wanna punch my lights out like a psychopathic Vulcan?! FINE! TRY IT!

Terry: I figured this is where you would be.. plus I also hear that you met Persi..
*he steps around avoiding the punching bag..*
Tara A: I'm not going to hit someone who won't fight back, Sash...
*She's still glaring at her, but a little less hatefully.*
