With formalities tended to, the group did a slow walk through of the station. "This new patrol route will be under my charge." She stated evenly as she made the appearance of examining the interior of the station. "I feel that many of these regions have been neglected by Starfleet for way too long, and that should have never been an issue." "And how do we over come this issue?" The Commander asked with concern. "Many civilian operations fail to cooperate. They depend on Starfleet interaction, but seem to have some reservations about offering any form of assistance in return." "And this returned assistance, exactly what would that entail for us? We would really like to be a willing participant in the system." "Not anything drastic." She went on. "Pretty basic. There has been a rise in pirate activities in these outer regions." She stopped and turned to face the Commander. "We understand there are certain shipments and deals that go unlogged and under the table. I am not so much concerned about that as I am with the piracy. Innocent lives are at stack and a loss of shipping vessels. That interfere with the entire network. All we would require in updated reports on sensor traffic, basic data on ships and crew rosters so as to locate potential pirates and spotters." She hesitated for a moment, lowering her voice. "And an unofficial location for shore leave for my crew." "Which would bring additional income to this station." The Commander perked up. "As well as maybe some increased commerce traffic once this region is secured." "I think," The Commanders expression brightened. "We can work together quite well, Captain." "Excellent." She smiled broadly. "What would you currently require, Captain?" The Commander asked as they resumed walking. "One of our suspect vessel. A freighter we have been monitoring. I officially can't access Privateer shipping contracts." "But we can." The Commander grinned. "We can take care of that problem, Captain. Snd what is this particular vessels name?" "A relatively new arrival in the shipping industry. A vessel with possible Pirate related connections, and seems to have emerged from within the sphere of the Klingon Empire. Though all that must be kept in secret while the investigation is ongoing. A vessel registered as the ICC Orpheus." "I'll see what our records department can pull on and add it to our watch list." "I do appreciate the assistance, Commander." She paused with a smile. "And how could we assist in your stations operations?" "The Commanders eyes brightened at the offer of assistance.
