====== Conference room 21, Diplomatic area,
SB234: UNITY ======
 
Just after the meetings with LaGrand, PontBrillant and
Chisulo, Shane asked his aide Lt. Pakosii to ask the
Erassian embassy to schedule a meeting with Ambassador
Ayanami. He did not know what tricks Pakosii used on the
Erassians … or if Ayanami was already expecting such a
request, but Pakosii reported that the Ambassador agreed on
a meeting within 2 hours.
 
Shane located the meeting in one of the smaller conference
rooms in the diplomatic area. It was his intention not to
use his office in the fleet level area, since he did not
want to speak with the Ambassador from a position of power.
He hated to be the official diplomatic representative of the
Federation (in addition to his military position), but since
the Federation council still did not send anyone else on
that position, it was Shane's "honor" to deal with
Ambassadors. He could very well pretend someone other
enjoying the position {like my brother Martin}, but for a
soldier … used on hierarchy and chain of command, dealing
with diplomats wasn't a pleasure.
 
"Commodore Guzman how rare to receive an invite from you
these days.  I would have thought you would be too busy with
the progress of the war and the return of your wife and
child to Unity to bear much thought for the only allies you
have actively in this war."  Alecto said as she marched in
through the doors with a pale looking man tailing behind
her.  At the sight of Commodore Guzman's face she pointed to
the man on her tail. "Don't mind him he's cleared to talk
about the first order of business which is I'm guessing
Narendra right?"
 
Shane nodded and beamed a cold smile at the Ambassador:
"If I would ever doubt that you and Ivanov are of the same
kin, it's always enough to hear two or three sentences and
all my doubts disappear." He pointed at the seats at a
round table where some light food and drink was served.
"Please take a seat and serve yourself if you like, but I
know that Erassians are not very fond of receptions and
served food."
 
The comment the Commodore made regarding Ivanov (Presumably
Viktor as Alecto doubted he had met Boris or Susan before)
was no doubt intended as an insult but in thinking about it
she could quite readily accept it as a compliment.  That
being said thought Alecto still had to wrack her brain to
think where the Commodore had gotten the idea that somehow
Erassians didn't like pomp and circumstance where
appropriate.  Granted the three main examples the Commodore
had any significant experience with was herself and Viktor
(oddly both bred, raised and trained within the borders of
the Federation) and of course Anya Xerxes who was a pilot
first anything else second.  She would have to have one
of her aides in the Embassy forward on some information
to the Commodore's Aide.  Gods forbid Premier Josef
Lephren the current Head of The Erassian Alliance arrived
and was greeted with a handshake and some finger food.
 
"And yes" Shane said looking at Alecto's tail and went
on: "I must express deep concern from the Federation
council and Starfleet Command about the Narendra
accident". This was a phrase he had to learn … quite
long … then shook his head and added: "To hell with the
diplomatic talk  ... WHAT THE HELL did you do with the
Klingons on Narendra ?!" Shane finished with a raised
voice.
 
Alecto kept her tone amused "Me personally, provided a
quick and honorable death for 35 traitors to the
Klingon Empire.  Me as a symbol of the Erassian Alliance
burned every last traitorous bastard aboard that station which
was creating weapons for mass genocide.  Perhaps the
better question to ask would be WHY?  Of course if you
ignore the obvious preventing a devastating strike
against the Alliance causing a death toll in the millions."
 
Shane scowled at the Ambassador for the obvious arrogance
and the asked: "SO, WHY THE HELL did you killed all the
Klingons and destroyed the whole base?"
 
When the question was asked the aide finally spoke
"Because I asked."  Anya brought out a miniaturized
jammer and upon activating it set it upon the table.  
The air around and skin of the aide appeared to waver
and then disappear leaving Commodore Guzman in a room
with Alecto and not a lanky, pale Erassian aide but
instead a tall powerful Klingon warrior.  He spoke
again but this time in the deep baritone of a Klingon
warrior "Greetings Commodore Guzman, I am Quon'ragh
head of Klingon Intelligence within the Erassian
Alliance and I believe we have a few things to talk
about."
