"I know you are are eager to communicate, but the aliens seem more interested in examining the module as soon as possible, and seemed to be making sense of what the Universal Translator can do for now."
"Lieutenant Jukish, getting engineering involved is the best idea. What was that engineer's name who helped us earlier? Raven something, the ensign?" Amila said searching for her name. "Singer! Let's get singer on comms, have her loop into the Midshipman's streaming device from Engineering, we can get our master saving to a drive through them while she makes sure everything is locked down. We'll stall on hand-delivery, for as long as possible, but when he asks for it, or if he asks to come here, we may not have a choice."
"Keti, get Raven on the line and tell her what we need her to do," Amila ordered. "Pedro and Leah, go ahead and prepare a local computer here in the Lab and make sure it's disconnected from the main core, and start copying while we wait for Raven to secure the interface. When the interface is ready, we'll need to patch her in, and get A'kilees' terminal in Sickbay looped in ASAP. They are going to be wondering where we are."
