[b]Korax, First Officer[/b] The meeting broke up, each group headed off to their own assignments. Korax met with the rest of Beta Team at the shuttle, after sharing a few words with the Captain in private to make sure mission parameters were clear and that he wouldn't do anything reckless while his first officer was gone. Even if he was back on the ship, it was still a legitimate concern. Soon they arrived aboard the disabled ship.The trip was silent, all beings present focused on the mission at hand. Gue'rach led the way once they had arrived, making sure the immediate area did not have any hidden dangers that their scanners had not picked up before the rest of them entered the ship. It was a sensible decision, though comparatively unnecessary as they found nothing for the moment. "Perhaps," Korax replied as he checked his scanning equipment, confirming what they had already suspected thus far. "This one has never understood the concept of claiming possession of another being. Studies indicate it is not a very effective economic model." This had been one of the nastier elements of culture shock, for such societal aspects did not exist among its people before they had met the ISA> With that observation made, it was back to the mission at hand. He moved towards the compartment door, calm and ready for any potential surprises that might emerge. "Let us proceed to the bridge," he informed his companions as he did so. It was the next step in the plan, after all.
