"Captain, I have a valid TAU encrypted messge from Fleet Command."  
  Peiper adjusts his headset and replys "pipe it in to me on secure freq 2, 
Comm."  Switching to the appropriate channel, his view screens blank out for 
a moment, running through the secure protocols.
  The Captain is not surprised to see the grizzled mug of the silver haired 
Yazarian, Fleet Admiral (operations), Admiral Navar appear on the screen.  
What he says however, does come as a surprise.
  "Captain Peiper, we have discovered a problem in the area you are now in.  
An unknown entity is interfering with communications satellites between 
Gruna-Garu, Araks, and Rhianna.  Message security and even content are now 
in question.  I don't need to tell you how important the maintenance and 
credibility of the interstellar communication net is to the security of 
the Federation.  Of special interest to us is the possible communication 
isolation of both DOVE Station and CENTURY 
Station on the edge of Outland in Sector 2."
  "I have already given you detailed locations of all the sector 2 satellites 
to be re-Qed and timed with the latest encryption technology.  I am moving 
up your schedule though.  You are no longer on training maneuvers and are 
to commence reprograming and repair operations immediately.  Locate the 
source of this interference and apparent tampering.  Install the new  
encryption equipment, and return to Araks for reassignment upon mission 
completion.  You have three months to complete the assignment.  Refer to 
the Fleet intellignece report I have encoded and transmitted at the conclusion 
of this message."
  "This should be a simple one, Janz.  Find them and bring them in.  Use 
whatever means are required within reason.  StellarCom is paying your fees 
for this one."
  A toothy grin breaks out on his broad face.
  "Good luck."
  A pleasant human female voice, now very familiar, intones "Message complete.  
Fleet command, out."  The fleet Nova symbol remains on the VDU.
  Peiper taps his headset.  "Comm, get me a hard copy of the 'rider' on the 
secure  com that just came through.  
  "Aye Captain"
