"I can't accept that.", Vincent looked at T'Ros.
"Those are my conditions.", the Romulan Praetor looked at the King's Fleet Commander in Chief.
T'Ros snarled, "The Romulan Suran needs the experience that will come with working with you incompetents. T'Sir is the offspring of a famous Romulan leader. Serving aboard the Talon is not giving her the leadership experience we had hoped. Running a colony in the hot zone will force her to grow as a Leader."
Vincent bit his bottom lip trying to find the words, "So let me understand this, the Romulan consulate will not interfere in a starship attack on the Klingon rebels in the mountains of Reykja Penthe nor will the office of Praetor T'Ros file a protest with Chancellor Kabarann or President Madison supporting the rebels."
"Yes.", the ever arrogant T'Ros interrupted.
"And in exchange, the King's Fleet will remove Mayor Carleton Porter, a true Antican gentleman and Governor Nicole Branson, our civilian conscience and install the Romulan T'Sir Suran as Governor and Mayor of Reykja Penthe.", Vincent sarcastically outlined Praetor T'Ros' plot.
He had truly missed her. This woman had caused the genocide at Cheron VI, the first Camelot and the invasion of Medara. This woman had been a thorn in his side for the last 6 years. Vincent wanted to slap her when she responded with a simple yes.
T'Ros looked at Vincent and snidely announced, "This is another example as to why the Star Empire will always remain superior. We have spayed the bitch Branson and I have placed a political rival in a shark cage where she may or may not survive. We Romulans are able to make the very tough decisions."
The beautiful Romulan winked at Admiral Viceroy, "These are the conditions."
Commander Marrus informed the Romulan Home Office that the King's Fleet has begun to manoeuvre the smaller vessels into the attack run.
T'Ros was not pleased, "Who ordered this?"
"This was supposed to be a Marine Operation, General Tanus could hardly organize a unit let alone a mountain assault.", T'Ros snapped.
Saehir turned on her viewer so she could see the Praetor, "Your honor, the attack is being coordinated by Lieutenant General Deveniss."
"Don't you mean the Admiral?", T'Ros was getting more and more angry.
"The Fleet has reorganized after the summit. Colonel Tanus has been demoted and the marine corps are now under the command of the Selayan.", the Eagle's Talon Commanding Officer informed T'Ros.
"He was the damn Chief of Staff. Who the hell is coordinating the crews?", T'Ros was steaming.
"Rear Admiral Nicole Branson. She knows the staff well. She taught or at least coordinated their class schedules. She is now the Chief of Staff.", Saehir explained.
T'Ros shouted, "Viceroy, you son of a bitch."
"What the hell else are you not telling me?", T'Ros snapped.
"Admiral Tan is back in charge of the wej'veQ. Monica Montgomery is looking after the cha'paj.", Saehir observed.
"Get me Suran. How dare these people try to make me look foolish?", T'Ros snapped.
"It has been my experience, your honor, that the office of the Governor is little more than a figurehead position. Nicole Branson and Admiral Viceroy were friends and he sought to protect her almost as a daughter. He never really listened to her on tactical matters.", Saehir responded.
"I am gonna kill that fool!", T'Ros snapped.
