Before Alyssa even made it fully into her office, she was addressing the computer. "Computer...pull up all reports on Maquis starship USS Wolverine. Also, display the ship's manifest. Wall screen."

The wall screen itself was more of a holographic projection than an actual screen....but it helped the former professor think. She always worked best when things were spread out in front of her....so she'd made it a point to pick up the projector from the Zion's stores.

As the computer worked, report after report appeared in front of her, as if hung on a giant sheet of glass. Stepping up, the raven haired woman began to scan the documents one by one...moving them around by pointing with her index finger.

Once she came to the Wolverine's crew roster, she blanched a little when she saw both the face and name of the ship's CSO: Garrett Birkoff.

"No....It's not possible....."

The man was the identical twin to the man that had taken over the Zion. Calling up the man's service record, she read through it quickly and found that Garrett did indeed have a twin brother....one Gordon Birkoff. This was going to make the identification process that much harder. Identical twins were the only people in the universe that DID NOT have unique DNA. "Computer...copy Garrett Birkoff's personnel file and medical records and send to Doctor Dane for comparison."

The computer beeped in acknowlegdment. "Files sent."

Alyssa dropped into her chair....and stared at the remaining data that was up there. If this man was indeed the Wolverine's CSO....then where did the Klingon's find him?

"Computer....begin message."

The computer beeped...and she addressed the transmission to the Klingon ship that had left the prisoner with them. "This is Chief Warrant Officer Alyssa Northrop of the USS Zion. In my capacity as Chief Intelligence Officer I am hereby requesting all data relating to the capture of Prisoner Birkoff. Thank you."

The computer ended the message and sent it on it's way. Alyssa wondered if the Klingons would grant her request. Something felt off here.
