All words and simple sentences A’kilees had inputted came back through the Universal Translator without any issues on the control console. The algorithm was functioning completely as designed and continuously processing and translating the information taken from before. There would be no issues with communicating with the aliens. The saurian breathed a sigh of relief.
The deafening hiss of the cryopod depressurizing made A’kilees flinch back and stare towards the display coming from the pod. The large amber display emanating from the pod was now flashing with a new message for everyone to see:
[T-MINUS 00:00. STATSIS TERMINATED]
All crew members present in the holodeck watched as the lid slid open and a large hand grasped on the outer frame. Soon the large alien slowly pushed itself up and made it’s way out of the pod, covered in cryo vapours. It stood for a moment imposingly then wobbled slightly, attempting to get it’s balance and adjust to the foreign surroundings. There was a tense silence for a moment, everyone observing the alien now standing in the holodeck. A’kilees stood at the arch, completely motionless, his dark eyes trained firmly on the strange being. He was unsure of what to do at that very moment. His base instincts warned him of potential danger and run for the door as the alien loomed above everyone there, but his curiosity and committed sense of duty compelled him to remain.
"Midshipman Cortez," Ameen broke the stillness with a voice of authority. "Broadcast that ascending frequency through the Holodeck emitters now. Maximum volume." and he brought his hands up as a calming gesture as Gath moved forward to administer the injection. "I am Commander Morad Ameen of the United Federation of Planets. We mean you no harm. Your vessel was destroyed, but we have saved your people."
All A’kilees could do in that moment was wait…
