Timeline: 1400Hrs - July 11 2391

Gunther was a bit annoyed, over the past several days he has dealt with nothing but dead ends. Their mysterious drug dealer had so far remained elusive, and now he found himself with John McDougal and Gary Smithson sifting through the security recordings trying to find something. So far nothing. All the drives checked out, even the one that Gyce had. However gunther then remembered, " wait, there is another drive, one installed by a previous security officer who was a bit paranoid." Gunther then turned to McDougal, "Check that extra drive, see if something is different with it."

McDougal nodded. "Sounds good Gunther. We'll handle it." he responded as Smithson sat down at one of the stations before the three men went to work.

Ten minutes later. "Gents... I got something...Gunter, you need to see this." Smithson paused as he swallowed. "Isn't that... Aryssa Sullivan?" he said quietly.

Gunther frowned then went back on the primary drive, looking up the same camera and the same timestamp, and found that Ayrissa was not on that video. He then looked back at the other, frowning, "What the hell, the primary drive doesn't have that video." The realization then dawned on him, "Shit, someone has been tampering with our security system."

Gunther then finally noticed what was going on in the video, prompting him to comment, "wait, what the hell, that other one is one of ours, Jewel BeDratt."

MacDougal growled. "What the fuck!" he growled as he continued to watch. "Guys... this is a homegrown porn movie.."

Smithson noticed something on his own panel. "I got one over here too... same victim... but ... who is that guy.?" he growled.. "That's a Marine..."

Gunther immediately recognized the Guy, "Hurd," he muttered under his breath. He then stood up so fast that his chair fell over and then growled. "Gary, find all the tampered recordings, and bring Gyce and John Sherdian down here to help investigate. John, you are coming with me, we are going to relocate BeDratt."

Smithson nodded. "Consider it done Senior Chief." before he tapped his combadge. "Smithson to Sheridan and Gyce. I need you two at my location RFN." he responded.

"Sheridan here. On my way Ensign."

"Benice here as well.. I'll be there soon," Gyce promised.

MacDougal looked at Gunther. "I have your back Senior Chief."

Minutes later, Gyce entered the security office and looked at the computer feeds, where some of her staff were located. "What do we have?"

Smithson regarded the handsome Bajoran woman he was developing a liking for. "Over here sir... someone tried deleting their home made porn movies... Its... grim watching." he handed her the PADD. "This one is Private Hurd doing a drug deal with Aryssa Sullivan.." he indicated the other work station. "That one is a security guard... Jewel BeDratt."

"Inform the command staff and Colonel Sullivan," Gyce sighed irritably. "And issue an arrest for these two clowns. Full tac teams, incase they're stupid enough to go down fighting."

Smithson nodded as he picked up a PADD as he proceeded to do as requested before he tapped his combadge, calling in Commander Yamaguchi and Captain Tane.

Gunther then walked back into the security office dragging BeDratt by the foot. He looked at Gyce and Sheridan saying," You want to interrogate this piece of shit first."

BeDratt screamed. "Lemme go!"

Sheridan growled. "Silence!" he growled. "Bring her over here.. " he commented. "I have a few questions."

"As do I," Gyce added as she started to fold her arms in front of her with a barely contained rage on her face. "What's the penalty for exploiting and molesting a minor?"

Smithson saw this going on before he began deactivating the security systems in the security annex.

"I don't know what-"

"Shut it Asshole!" Sheridan roared at this clearly terrified woman, he was now well and truly enraged. "So... Either you will tell me what I want to know... or I'm going to do this the old fashioned way... you harmed children, you exploited them... and I got your name. I GOT YOUR ASS!!!!!" and with that, he hauled off and belted her once across the face. "I'm going to start with your fingers... then your hand, then your arm... then I'm going to rip out your teeth... one... by one..." as he turned. "Pliers please."

Gunther picked up the gardening shears and almost handed it to Sheridan, the said, "Oh, wait, pliers, right." He then grabbed the pliers and gave them to Sheridan.

"Thank you Senior Chief." as he gently grasped BeDratt's hand. "How many people have you abused?" and with that he crushed her pinkie.

BeDratt screamed at the top of her lungs

"Answer me!" Sheridan demanded before he hauled off and belted her.

"This isn't a prison, Miss BeDratt. So you may want to cooperate before I let these men crush more of your bones," Gyce spoke, then yawned as if unphased.

BeDratt's eyes widened in terror. "But... you can't do this to me... I'm an officer... I have rights."

Sheridan regarded her. "Do you know the difference between a detainee and a prisoner.?"

BeDratt only shook her head as he picked up a hammer. "Mmm..." and with that he smashed it into her left hand, breaking a dozen or so bones, she screamed in agony as Sheridan added. "You are a detainee... you HAVE NO rights..."

Meanwhile the door opened and Chalan walked in, with Hurd and Jewel Katana both in cuffs, escorted by an Armed Yuri Grisson, Nightstar and William Ramirez. Chalan tossed several large bags over Gunther, saying," Found their stash, it was right where you said it would be."

Gunther nodded, opened the bags and found a huge amount of drugs, then looked at Sheridan and Gyce. "There is a huge amount of drugs in here, must be worth millions."

Ramirez glared at Katana and Hurd. Rifle in hand as he felt at ease in her armor. "You... offend me.." he growled. "you disgrace the Corps with your presence."

Yuri just gave Hurd the death glare, and Hurd tried his best to not meet his gaze, while Chalan commented to Sheridan, "Is this all you need, or is there someone else you need us to retrieve."

McDougal came around the corner. "Senior Chief.," he growled. "I found someone we lost.." he hauled Nat Weber around the corner. "Get over there with the others." before he suddenly hauled off and kicked Nat Weber once. "Move it..."

Weber whimpered. "What... whats going on?"

Gunther looked down at the whimpering Weber saying, "Your lucky you are the least involved, and that your not getting her treatment, at least as long as we stay in a good mood." Gunther pointed at the whimpering BeDratt.

Sheridan nodded. "Would you mind tossing them in a cell apiece... don't go near cell five through... that one is under heavy guard. I swiped one guy from the air wing for it."

Nightstar then mentioned," Well if you need some of my marines for a rotating guard, I"ll have my most reliable guys do it, myself included if needed."

Ramirez regarded Nightstar, a soft smile on his face. "I'll be on the schedule myself too." he commented

Sheridan smiled. "Excellent. Tienn will be very well behaved." he responded. " he paused. "four guys per shift should be fine. I'll leave it to you how you wanna work this out."

Gyce walked out of the room for only a few moments. Then she came back in with a rolled-up cloth satchel. She unrolled it on the table in front of BeDratt.

"So you either confess your suppliers, or I force it from you in an even more painful manner," Gyce threatened coolly as she began to load a hypo with a green-colored liquid cartridge.

Sheridan smiled as he regarded her mashed up left hand as he held the hammer in his hand. "Wait.." she begged. "Okay... I'll tell."

"See how easy that was..." Sheridan placed the hammer down before he picked up a PADD as the broken woman before them confessed, Sheridan typed quickly to keep up.

"Let's start simple... Who brings the drugs to the ship?" Gyce began.

BeDratt paused as she explained, her strength was truly broken at this point as the information flowed from her. "Children... they are using the children of the ship... childrens toys... using the children themselves.." she whimpered in pain. "stuff from the planet... when we put into dock on Starbase 12... contact is a guy named... James Hendrickson." she responded.

Gyce signaled Sheridan to inform the command staff with just one look or alarm and earnest, then went on to asked, "And is he a supplier, or does he run the whole ring?"

Sheridan nodded as he was still taking notes. BeDratt nodded. "He is the main supplier... you'll find him on Starbase 12." she sighed. "kill me now... if you don't then they will... me and my family.."

"You should of thought about that before entering into this chaos, Miss BeDratt," Gyce noted heartlessly.

"Fuck you.."

"Now thats not a nice thing to say..." Sheridan responded.

"Fuck yo-" was as far as she got before Sheridan bitchslapped her. "I've heard enough out of you.... did you leave anything out..?"

"No..."

"Think hard.."

"Drugs it is," Gyce agreed and made the press the hypo into BeDratt's neck.

BeDratt's eyes went wide as she screamed in agony
