Ameen sat in the center chair, his eyes fixed on the main viewscreen where the tactical overlay showed the two Starfleet intercept vessels burning hard toward their position.

[Lieutenant Ra'an to Captain Ameen, Dr. O'fee, and Lieutenant Gath. If you are able, please report to the Science Lab. You'll want to see this for yourselves.]
Amila's voice cut through the quiet, disciplined hum of the Bridge. Ameen immediately noted the specific cadence of her tone—it wasn't the sound of an imminent warp core breach, but it carried the distinct, heavy weight of a major breakthrough. She had found something substantial inside that Faraday cage.
Ameen tapped his commbadge. "Acknowledged, Lieutenant. I'm on my way."
He stood up, adjusting his uniform jacket with a sharp, practiced tug, and turned toward his tactical officer.
"Lieutenant Powl, you have the conn. Keep a close eye on those interceptors and maintain our current power distribution. Alert me immediately if their ETA changes."
Knowing the Vulcan would have the Bridge perfectly locked down, Ameen strode purposefully toward the turbolift.
"Deck Two," he ordered as the doors hissed shut behind him, pulling him away from the Bridge and down toward the waiting mystery in the Science Lab.
