Liev stopped in front of a door and opened it, ushering the delegation into the private, luxurious waiting room that was reserved on the docking ring for VIPs and diplomats.
"So I hear the Empire's warriors are too busy squabbling amongst each other to have fun with a good fight. Any comment Envoy Kaj? Can't have the part time soldiers in the Federation getting all the glory now." Alecto said stepping through the door.
"I prefer not to discuss politics on an empty stomach, Ambassador," Kaj said firmly to the Erassian Ambassador. "What say you about some gagh?"
"Depends on how lively it is." Alecto answered with a grin.
Just before Lernen entered the room, Adjur stepped forward to him and said "I believe you helped our strategist for the Klingon beachhead invasion to retake Betazed during the Dominion Occupation. That was my grandfather Cho'zac. I believe human tradition is that a handshake is a show of honour, may I?" Adjur held out her hand to Lernen.
Lernen reached up "I remember Cho'zac. He was a fine warrior and a brilliant strategist. I was sorry to hear he died in the raid on Horunus."
Adjur replied "Don't be it was a glorious death with much honour. Unfortunately the same cannot be said for yours."
Lernen's eyes widened and he began to convulse violently, so violently in fact that he was jolted out of his chair and onto the floor.
Alecto didn't hesitate for a millisecond as she turned unsheathed her jet black katana and dropped into a crouching position. Using most of her enhanced strength she launched herself upwards and back out through the door into Adjur lifting her off the ground. In midair Alecto drove the katana through Adjur's torso and into the bulkhead behind leaving Adjur nailed to the wall over a foot off the ground. She caught a sharp look of distaste off Major Liev but all she said was "Non-vital area. She still lives." Before casting a warning glance at the other Klingon Envoys.
Mnemosyme grabbed her phaser from the holster at her side. Bringing up the rear her view of what was happening was no the best but the crowd parted as a Klingon and the Ambassador traveled into the corridor.
Quickly Rushing forward as Nym holstered her phaser, she dropped to her knees by Harbright and began checking his pulse. She could tell by the feel of him that things were not right and she couldn't help the glowing tingling that started at her finger tips.

Nym could hear the others around her and even knew that someone had asked her a question, but she couldn't discern what it was. {There so much damage already.... } She shut her thoughts down and quickly pulled her arm away.
After the door shut behind Major Varis and the others, Alecto turned to Mnemosyme and said "If you're going to use it then nows the time. And before you say it I won't believe you that glowing fingers are there to make it easier to read at night. Don't worry I don't care about revealing your little gift so don't hesitate because of me."
"I'm trusting your word that you will say nothing." Nym didn't say anything else as she didn't feel there was time. She placed both hands on Lernen's chest and looked at Alecto, "You mustn't let any one else know or see." The look in her eyes became distant and a small glow started that made her fingers look like they had been dipped in glitter.
"vam 'oH qab!" Kaj was shouting in outrage as Liev quickly led them and the marine guards away from the scene and into the lounge.
The door had barely slid shut behind them when Ch'tarig grabbed Liev by the throat and fumed, "ja' jIH qatlh!"
Liev had barely time to register what had happened when two of the marines grabbed and sedated Ch'tarig while the two other each placed a firm grip on the Envoy's shoulders. Kaj didn't resist, but he was clearly boiling with anger. Though whether it was at what his aide had done or what the Erassian Ambassador had done was uncertain.
"Call a medic!" Liev croaked as he rubbed his bruised larynx.
With her eyes glistening like some kind of violet jewel, Nym looked down into the man's face and suddenly pulled her hands away and sagged against the wall.

Lernen's breathing was ragged "No....save it....for someone who...needs it. You must....you must tell...Lady Tanavia. They...are moving...quicker than we expected. The...Spearhead...must be sharpened."
Alecto crouched next to him and benignly said "Any last regrets to confess old man?"
Lernen gave a sort of laugh which came out more as a cough "I'm sorry....I never...told my son how...how very proud...I was that.....he was...his own man." With that a single tear rolled down the withered face of Lernen Harbright. He gasped in pain and convulsed as little black lines looking almost like the growing of tree branches crawled up from beneath the collar of his uniform and onto his face. The tension suddenly released from his body and he slumped to the deck.
Alecto rose and said to Mnemosyme "Times up. Have the medics move the body to the morgue full quarantine procedures. Do not under any circumstances let them transport it." Alecto turned and started to walk off in the direction of the promenade.
Nym, sat propped up by the wall behind her, she nodded indicating she had heard the ambassadors orders. She closed her eyes as she heard the thunder of feet growing closer and meditated for a minute or two. {Pull it together now; rest later} she told herself as she opened her eyes and pressed her body against the wall and used it as the needed leverage to get back on her feet.
Without turning back Alecto answered simply. "I'm going for a drink."
