Xena and the team rematerialized down on the planet in ear shot of Lieutenant Mishtak. Xena scanned the area first with her eyes. Just being here made her skin crawl. It was painfully cheerful looking. "Who'd ever think war would be here? Looks more like a place where lollipops and rainbows reside." She looked over her shoulder at her small team after spotting Mishtak. "Follow me."
Just then she was stopped by a man who was selling something that looked like jewelery. He held up a pink sparkling chain that had something that looked like small diamonds handing from it.
"No sale." Xena said coldly. She started to walk again when he held up a different piece. "Look, I'm not interested now step aside." Xena said this time moving the man to the side as she began to walk. He again stopped her. Xena looked deep into his eyes and smiled a fake polite smile.
"I said no and I meant no. Now I have a job to do, and if you don't let me do it you're going to find yourself with this," Xena lifted up some type of poll looking thing, and tossed it hand to hand. "shoved straight up your rear to where it comes out your mouth. And if you make me mad I just might have to make you even more uncomfortable. Now, you don't want to make me mad now do you?"
The man stepped aside after a head shake of no.
Xena patted his cheek. "Good man." She then tossed the poll like thing back to it's owner. "Come along boys."
"Lieutenant Mishtak." Xena said above the crowd as she neared him. When she caught sight of the young thing attached to his arm she had to keep herself from laughing. She cleared her throat. "Miss." She addressed the girl. "Here's the team. Fill me in."

"The security team will be joining us to help look for the Captain in order to prevent the crew on board the ship from panicking in her absence..."
Turning to see Lt. Xena calling after him, he dislodged Vidia's arm from his own and led Xena away from everyone else in order to give her orders without being overheard...
"Lt. I need your security team to continue the search for the Captain, I will be needing you to watch my back."
he turned to look at the guarded entrance of the Library...
"As I am going to be investigating in a guarded building I will be keeping an open channel with you, I am placing you in command of the away team until Commander McKnight arrives, coordinate with the Orion as best as you can. If you find the Captain inform me immediately, and keep me informed of all important correspondence. Thank you Lt."
Mishtak then returned to Vidia and allowed her to lead him into the Library, past the guards...

Xena listened and gave a nod of her head. "Aye sir." Xena replied as she lightly slapped Mishtak on the back; in doing so she had stuck on a device that would keep him on sensors, both tricorder, and if out or range the Orion would be able to track him. She sure didn't want to loose anyone else. Captain Prince missing was enough.
She gave a nod as their assistant chief returned to the young lady...if one could rightfully call her that.
"Set your tricorders on wide band, also set them to pick up traces of Norcadian residue seven minutes and older." Xena instructed Crewmen Rider, Twain, and Ensign Ja'hala. "Then let's spread out. Rider you're with me, ensign, you're with Twain. Keep an open comm-link, and ask the people here when they last saw Vhat and Captain Prince."
"Let's move." Xena went off with Rider, following the readings she was getting from her tricorder. So far it wasn't exactly much. I hope they remember to use their instincts as well...
"Xena to Mishtak, you wouldn't happen to know if Captain Prince got any item while she was on the planet?"
If he didn't know one of the keepers might. After all when she came down there was a man that tried to get her to have some jewelery.

Miss.
Not soon after other officers showed up. Vidia suspected them to be the team Mishtak talked about. Vidia simply gave a nod of her head at the woman that called his miss. She watched with her hands behind her back. Not quite sure why, Vidia decided she didn't like the tall black haired woman. Though she smiled when Mishtak came back.
"Shall we?"
Vidia led him to the library. After showing the two guards her ID -which one might wonder where she kept it- they were allowed in the building.
"Where would you like to start first?"

Mishtak looked around the library and wondered which section was historical...
"I would really like to know about your races history, and the history of your planet. After all I am an explorer like all starfleet officers."
he lied, he was not really interested in exploration, he was a warrior, but he needed to learn everything he could about the history of these people and see what he could discover about the war...
he then tapped his comm badge
"Mishtak to Lt. Xena..."
he was not sure if the communicator would work in this building, and he needed to test that before going any farther...

"History?" Vidia was compelled to bite at her lower lip, but was able to stop herself from doing so. "Um, sure. This way." Vidia said with a small smile as she took Mishtak by the hand over to a section with red colored terminals. "Here we are." She said gesturing her hand at one of the stations. "You'll first need a draftna."
Vidia watched as Mishtak tapped his bagde. "Oh what do you need her for?"

"It is starfleet protocol for all members of an away team to maintain communication."
He sat at the terminal and looked at the screen
"What is a Draftna?"
He had only contacted Xena to see if the comm badge would work from in the library, if it did then it would rule out the possibility of Capt. Prince being in the library and if it did not then there was a possibility she could be in here somewhere... Mishtak just needed to make sure he played his cards properly in order to gather as much Intel as possible before turning the city inside out...
With the Comm badge still operational he determined that the Captain was most likely not in the Library... He held his tricorder under the table, shielding it from view with his body and typing a message on it using his memory to recall where all the proper keys were... He sent a short range message from his tricorder to Lt. Xena's tricorder that said 'Capt. not in library, continue search of city.' he hoped she got it and continued the search for the captain while he continued to try and learn about this planet's history and as much about the war as possible.

Vidia opened a pouch on the wall and pulled out a white shiny small object that from first glance looked like it was made of polygons and octagons. It was actually the power supply of the city in the form of a tiny rock no larger than a twentieth century dime.
"This is a draftna." Vidia said holding it up for Mishtak to see. "Isn't it pretty? If you hold it up to the light it refracts it and a million beams dance about the room." She handed it to Mishtak after admiring it. "You stick it in the slot on the side of the terminal. They help power the computers...almost in the same way ships process dilithium. It'd be nice if the library was a bit more up to date, but at the moment that's the least of our planets worries."
"What would you like to know?"

As Xena was and the team were going about their search her tricorder beeped. She saw a message had been sent. Pushing a button she allowed it to come through, and read it silently.
'Capt. not in library, continue search of city.'
Dash it all... Xena thought. She then sent a message of her own.
'We've split up. I'm going to question some of the townspeople, after a drink.'
That transmitted Xena went off with her partner. "Let's get something to drink."
"A drink? Aren't we supposed to be looking for Captain Prince?"
Xena let out a sigh then put an arm around her partner. "You'd be surprised what you can get out of people in a bar, not to mention the ladies room. Just take a breath and put on a smile." Xena turned on her heel and walked over to a tavern. Putting her gear back to the holster she looked around the darkly lit room, and took a seat at one of the tables.
She leaned back in the chair and put her feet up on the table as she scanned the people in the room. So many suspects...

Once rematerialized on the surface he looked around and noticed a couple security officers questioning the locals outside of a tavern, he figured he'd check to see what progress they've made, but before he had to assign everyone a task.
Turning to face the away team James ordered "You two with me" pointing at Ensign Harper and Lieutenant Rei, then added while pointing at two other officers "you two question the locals and try to find out where the captain was last spotted."
Once finished James started to walk over to the two officers near the tavern.

Not soon after Sharpay was deposited upon the planet like all the others. The place certainly looked rather cheerful for a war zone. Sharpay naturally whipped out her tricorder; they were there for business after all. Commander McNight then called and pointed to her. Looked like she was on his team...not a bad place to be. Per orders Shar followed their commander, glancing every now and again at her tricorder.

After materializing Trish looked around immersing herself in her surroundings. The place was certainly different than she had expected to see it. She had expected smoke, ruines, and all sorts of other things. The security officers were about the planet that had come down earlier. She couldn't help but wonder if they found anything. She could read their minds, but that wouldn't be fair.
Commander McNight then pointed to her and Ensign Harper. Looks like they were with him. So, Trishany went along observing the people as she went.

Taking the Draftna and placing it in the slot on the terminal he put his tricorder back in it's holster...
"I would like to see the records on the war, what caused it, how long it has been going on, what tactics the enemy has used... things of that nature... I'd also like to learn about your societies customs and politics."
Mishtak gave Vidia his best smile, which at best was known to frighten small children (and some adults), as he tried to learn what he could of these people without seeming to be one tracked on the war... he was also trying to plan his next move after the library... he needed to find the captain, and he needed to find her soon because he felt something in the pit of his stomach that she was in danger... his instincts were on high alert and he had to focus himself to remain calm and collected while he investigated everything.

"Well, if that is what you wish..." Vidia said sounding a little bit nervous in the process. "I'm afraid there aren't many record about the war as I told you before, however the 'tactics the enemy has used' are no secret at all. They are quite ruthless." Vidia said as she pulled up the information about them. It said that they had captured their people, and executed mostly the men while the women were taken and used as servants. Both on occasion had been used as test subject, and the war had been going on for about five years.
"Sometimes our enemy would give us back the dead and mutilated corpses as a way to tell us not to resist. They have been after our cities power source for a while. The strange thing is that we once co-existed before. There was peace for a while, believe it or not." Vidia volunteered that information, well sort of. They were supposed to appear victimized. Of course most of the citizens were kept in the dark about the true problem.
"As to our customs I think that should b fairly obvious." Vidia said with a smile as she stood behind Mishtak, and put her hands on his shoulders, slowly letting them slide downwards. "You've seen the town square."
