Mara's briefing was as efficient as she always was when on the clock. Robin was going to be on Team 2 under Aeryn's command. That was fine; she'd worked with her friend before on the Utopia Planitia mission. the two of them had tracked down a Breen spy.
And I remember how that mission ended. I pray I don't have to kill anyone.
But Robin wasn't naive about it. These were Klingons, and they often made it necessary. She was well aware how the first away team on the freighter had gone. This time she wouldn't hesitate; she'd just feel terrible about it later.
“Everyone needs to be equipped with full tactical armour and a weapon. If you’ve got your phaser certifications, you get a type II. If you don’t, you get a type I. The armour is equipped with experimental tech to mask our lifesigns from casual scans, but we don’t know how effective it will be so time is of the essence. We need to be in, out and gone as fast as possible. If we get in a fight, follow the orders from the Security team and get out of the way. We will bring you all back. Help us do that by not trying to be the hero. I’m authorising kill shots because the priority is the mission and a swift evac back to the shuttle. Keep open comms between the two teams and if either finds the answer to our questions, we leave immediately.”
Mara asked for questions and Robin raised her hand. "Do you have a set of that armor sized for a pixie? This suit isn't equipped with that tech."
I wonder if we could replicate one on short notice.
