[Thea - Grand Ballroom]
She might be masquerading as a wealthy single socialite, but that didn't stop the tsunami of anxiety from spinning around her innards. Thea knew that she had made the right call, in issuing the order for everyone to meet at the rendezvous point a little earlier than anticipated. Although until she knew that everyone was safe, it wasn't appropriate to celebrate the fact that the package had been retrieved. There had been too many unexpected obstacles and risks, that could of easily of left them trapped or worse exposed.
That could wait for the debrief and so would any expression of relief as Thea continued to listen to the teams. Even Jem had the right idea by announcing the interval before disappearing back stage with Sven. However she couldn't follow them yet for various reasons, mainly no Hunt and the several guards that were making their way out of the Ballroom.
Hoping that Hunt would emerge soon, assuming that Hezula would let him and that the guards, wouldn't find too much out of place. Thea held on for the moment and if Hunt was still a no show then she wouldn't have any choice but to extract him via the ship.

[Felicity Ellis Corona Tang - Security Suite]She was on the edge of her seat, hoping that Grossman could keep Hezula busy enough to ignore her personal messages. From the sounds he was making over the comm, it seemed like he was certainly giving it his all. As new orders came in, Corona put the finishing touches on a program Aydin had created, and loosed it into the system. When Cromer made her suggestion, Corona pursed her mouth in consideration. The effort of slagging the computer equipment wasn't really required, not when a few key strokes could do the kind of damage they needed. However, there was a lot to be said for killing storage. She could delete every one of their faces from the system, but there would always be a back up somewhere. So she pushed the chair back, stood quickly and moved toward one of the stunned techs. She relieved him of his weapon and checked the settings. "Let's do it," she said to the other woman as she tapped a flush compartment beneath the console, hoping to reveal the data crystals inside. "It'll drown out the disturbing romance." And it was certainly a distraction. She loosed a few shots, then a few more, starting to enjoy herself for the first time that evening. When Six's voice confirmed they had the prize, Corona dropped the weapon. She should not be seen with one, it would not be in character. "Time to go! We can rendezvous with everyone at the ship. Let's hope your boy Grossman can get out... intact."With a nod, she gestured for Cromer to precede her, and soon they'd be moving through the corridors and past the ballroom. [ Cwm Eliska Bremmer/Ms. Jana Cromer - Security Room -> Good Ship Medusa ]Well, it would seem that Tang did appreciate the way she was thinking, and she wasted very little time in destroying some computer components. And, for one thing, Bremmer was glad of her teammate's technical savvy; it it had been only up to her, she would have vaporized the whole console rather than the fairly surgical operation she had just witnessed. And then, it was time to go. Taking point as indicated, the woman locally known as Jana Cromer was the first out of the security room, then clear of the short corridor into the ballroom. She thought of 'Grossman', and, well, if he couldn't extract himself, well, that might be a problem all right. For one thing, going to Medusa go gun up and go get him the hard was was a less than appealing thought, given the size of the local guard force and who they were working for. However, she couldn't worry about that just now, not when she was walking point for their extraction. Getting past the ballroom had been nerve-wracking, even with the guards mostly otherwise occupied; then getting out of the building proper felt like a relief, and a whole new level of stress. Once they were out, the expression 'possession is nine tenths of the law' seemed to mean so much less as they were past doors that could be locked to keep them inside, but they were out in the open on the way to Medusa's landing pad. That was a walk that Bremmer did probably much faster than an easy stroll by a guest would entail, but she certainly hated being so exposed at this point. But finally, she reached the landing pad, and the boarding ramp, and finally past the door and had a (civilian) solid hull between herself, and the rest of the resort. And only then did she allow herself to relax and she leaned forward, undoing her jacket and opening her shirt's collar to allow for easier breathing. =A= "Watermelon's in the fridge,"=A= she found herself reporting if a little breathlessly. That had been exhilarating... and she was in no rush to repeat the experience!

[Brutus - Presidential Suite]
Once the call had come from Hezula to check the safe for any signs of tampering or damage. Brutus hadn't wasted any time in getting his team to the Presidential Suite. He knew how valuable the disk was and if someone had taken it, then he wouldn't have a problem in hunting them down. Besides Hezula would reward him greatly if he caught those responsible.
Of course it might be a false alarm but he was loyal to his Mistress and always made sure that she was safe and didn't come to any harm. Entering the suite first with his disruptor raised and issuing silent orders to the others. Brutus approached the safe, growling under his breath to see it exposed.
" Someone has definitely been in here, watch my six whilst I check inside the safe".
With him being the only one of the four guards present with access to the safe. Brutus opened the safe and sighed with obvious relief upon seeing the contents. " They didn't get anything, perhaps something scared them off. I'll tell Hezula once we've done a sweep of this floor".
He wasn't taking any chances especially if the potential thieves were still hanging around for another opportunity to take the disk.

[Ensign Enola - Security Suite -> Medusa]
Enola watched and helped where she could, even if she lacked a bit of approach. She fired a shot with the phaser-like thing, then blew over the tip and put it back. Now, as a half-Vulcan, she didn't feel uncomfortable here, but she still didn't mind leaving. Enola left the room after Cromer, but didn't miss the opportunity to take another look around. Everything seemed to be fine, but the signs that someone had entered the room were more than obvious. She pushed her way down the corridors, not looking behind her. In one place there were still her shoes, which Enola picked up and slid under the nearest closet. Just to be sure. She resumed her walk shortly after, darting past the guards, who blinked only once, probably mentally noting who was coming in and going out. Finally, she too had arrived at the Medusa, and procured sturdy footwear at the next corner. The part-Vulcan swallowed once, and only now noticed how dry her mouth had become. Of course, the smoothie had been delicious, but it didn't have the same effect as a three-liter bottle of water, which Enola would have liked to polish off now.

[VIP Area]
Hunt listened to Hezula as she agreed instead of going herself, she sent some people. This would delay them a little bit and giving the team more and more a chance to escape. Typically mob bosses tend to be dictatorial and follow the orders of their leader. So the more she is occupied, the more likely the delay could buy them precious moments.
As she gave the order, he turned around and locked the door behind. “I think it’s time for a little privacy as they investigate.” Hunt needed a way to get the comm out of her hand quickly. He approached her from behind and hugged her. He then gently kissed her neck; he would then try and remove her shirt. However, he hoped in the process he needed to get the comms out of her hand. “I think you need help,” He said in a suave tone as he would try and pick up the comm, discreetly he would try and throw the remote and then make sure that every article of clothes that was removed would place on top of that comm.
He then asked, “Maybe I need help?” Hunt asked as it was clear he wanted help to remove his clothes.

[ Lt. Commander Isaiah Quinn Six - Hotel Extravaganza --> Medusa ] Upon breaching the exit, Six knew the best way to avoid suspicion was to not act suspicious. Every movement needed to be deliberate and with purpose. It also involved knowing his role, and playing it off the stage as well. He waited for both Dala and Jurgha to exit before offering both women one of his arms. It wasn't uncommon that patrons of the hotel sampled the staff off site as well. It wasn't encouraged, but it wasn't unheard of either. It was certainly how some members of the staff earned rather hefty tips. "Ladies?"He paused to see if the ladies would accept his arm before proceeding along the route back to the ship. Again, it was all about moving as if he belonged, as if nothing was out of the ordinary. That meant deferring his attention to the pair of ladies that accompanied him. The occasional devouring eye, his unwavering attention. Yet, eventually, they escaped enough eyes to make their way towards the Medusa. Upon reaching it, he attempted to escort the ladies onboard. His eyes scanned to see whom had arrived, and more importantly, who hadn't. =A= "The package has arrived at its destination. What about all passengers?" =A=

[Felicity Ellis Corona Tang - Security Suite -> Medusa]Having no other choice but to take up the rear, as the quiet one had followed Cromer, she shrugged, and left the Security Suite. As three females in a steady line maintaining a steady pace through corridors and courtyards, out of the hotel and toward the ports would look, well, really weird, Corona kept up a steady stream of loud chatter about The Dance of the Five Deaths. She fell back with ease into the role she'd been playing for several months; the person who would see to it that all guest needs were fulfilled. "You'll hear the sound of the drums once we go through this door..."
"It goes on all night, and it won't stop until the sun rises..."
"I met my husband at The Dance of the Five Deaths..."And so on and so forth, happily, enthusiastically, all polished smiles and confident strides, until they approached the Medusa. Corona fell quiet but once she stepped onto the ship, she was no longer everyone's best friend, she became Felicity Ellis. "Quinn," she said with a nod, greeting the science officer, and then his two companions, whom she had not yet properly met. "Let's get this lady ready to fly, shall we?" She didn't really wait for a response, instead she just kept going, intent on the bridge. "I need someone ready to beam the stragglers directly here. We'll have a really, really small window."
Tag: Isaiah Quinn Softs: Eliska Bremmer , Enola , Jovireh Velal , Shavan Th'zhaar *** [Aydin Tang - Great Ballroom]As the teams began to report success and check in, Aydin found himself impatient. When he noticed Athea hanging back, hesitating, he moved up beside her and lowered his voice. "It's time to go." He nodded toward the direction that Grossman and Hezula had vanished to. "He's not getting out of her clutches at this stage, not unless he incapacitates her himself." An easy grin spread across his face, and his brows raised, expressing some amusement, "And it doesn't sound like he wants her unconscious." The simple truth was that Aydin would not wait for much longer. His wife and his mission were on that ship, and that's exactly where he was headed, post haste. "He might need a beam out."

[ Hezula - VIP Area] This one certainly wasn't afraid to show his authority or his obvious desire for her, when he turned and locked the door as opposed to sitting down like she wanted. If this was how he wanted to play then she was happy to acquiesce. " Mm I agree" she replied breathlessly as he hugged her from behind and began to kiss her neck. Hezula sighed appreciatively and allowed him to start removing her dress. She was very much enjoying everything that he was doing and in the midst of the frenzy that he was creating within, didn't realise that he had also divested her of her comm device. Not that she cared as she murmured her agreement. When he then suggested that she help him, Hezula didn't hesitate as she turned towards him. " Oh I can do that" she answered as she started to remove his jacket and shirt.

[ Jem Sparkles - Medusa] Seeing familiar people up ahead as Sven ensured that their path had remained clear, was definitely reassuring to Jem as she increased her pace. To those who might be looking, she would tell them that it was a Drag Queen emergency and hope that no one would want an autograph. Luckily the area was devoid of eager fans which made things a lot easier as Jem entered the Medusa. " The ship should be ready to leave as I had my pilot keep the engines warm just in case" she said, catching the end of Felicity's sentence as she acknowledged those present. " I know Hunt went into the VIP area with Hezula and Thea should be on her way with Aydin". Naturally she wanted to be helpful and prepared to go to the Bridge with Felicity.
Tag Isaiah Quinn Felicity Ellis Eliska Bremmer Jovireh Velal Shavan Th'zhaar Enola[ Thea - Grand Ballroom] Thea knew that her time was running out and as much as she wanted to wait for Hunt, the whispered suggestion from Aydin as he got close, made her decision for her. Following his gaze towards the room where Hunt was keeping Hezula busy, brought out a knowing grin as she then answered him. " You're right, we can't wait any longer and I'd agree with that".Getting to her feet and hearing the others through the comm, Thea took one last look towards the VIP area. " That's likely and let's go" she agreed, eager to leave this resort behind once everyone was safe. There was no looking back as she headed for the exit and towards the Medusa.

[PO1 Jovireh Velal Dala Nauras - Torus VI - Hotel Extravaganza ---> Medusa]When Six offered his arm, Dala hesitated for a brief moment. The strange effects of spending so much time in a room full of that smell still lingered enough for her to be wary of physical contact with anyone, let alone a not unattractive man who just so happened to also be a superior officer, and quite taken by a commanding officer. However, she knew how important appearances were, especially now, so she forced a smile and rested her hand on his arm. He played the part well, as he should have, and seeing his gaze occasionally take her in did nothing to ease the uncomfortable confusion. But she took a deep breath of the fresh air, and played her part also, allowing her hips to sway as she walked and remaining closer to him than she would have liked. When they were finally safe aboard the Medusa and out of sight, she immediately dropped her hand back to her side and stepped away to a more comfortable distance. Hopefully these effects wouldn't last much longer. As a woman she hadn't met yet began issuing orders and headed towards the Bridge, Jov jumped at the chance to focus on something else. "I'll get the transport. Who are we waiting on?" Yes, that felt much better. While Ops wasn't normally her thing, it wasn't anyone else's either, and it wasn't like she'd never used a transporter before. So she moved behind the console, now completely in her usual professional mode, glancing briefly over the controls and waiting for the order.

[Jurgha, daughter of Khar - Hotel Extravaganza -> Medusa]
Jurgha smiled sharply and took the offered arm. The way she watched at Six as they walked, checking him out with a hungry look, wasn’t entirely for show. For a human, he wasn't bad looking.
It was almost disappointing that they didn’t end up having to fight their way out after all. They passed no one who paid them much attention, and were soon boarding the Medusa along with the rest of the team. She nodded return to Corona, and in brief acknowledgement of the others. With that part of the operation done, she stepped away from Six and crossed her arms, waiting to take off.

[Lt. Commander Isaiah Quinn - Medusa ] Being back aboard the ship, Isaiah was more than prepared to drop the guise of Six. It certainly wasn't needed at this point. And moving through the streets as the arm candy of a women who weren't his girlfriend was anything but comfortable. As Ellis referred to him by name and began making orders, Quinn was glad to fall back into a role he was much more comfortable with. "Right away, Captain," he said in response to Felicity's orders. It was the first 'official' order she'd given him since leaving Front Ear Station. He heard what Jem said about her pilot keeping the ship warm and nodded. "Good. Have the pilot run through preflight protocols. I get the feeling we're going to making a hasty exit," he said to Jem. The latter part of what she'd said was weighing heavy on him as well, as it outlined where the rest of their people were. He moved a bit closer to Syl who had taken up a seat at Ops, preparing to transport their people if needed. "Baker, Tang and Hunt," Isaiah told her, so that she'd know what signatures to look for. "Tang and Baker are supposed to be on the way. Hunt is still in the Hotel." Isaiah was hoping there weren't any lingering security measures like a scrambling field in place. The fewer obstacles the better. The scientist was certainly curious how in the hell the doctor was still there. He had clearly played his role well this evening... perhaps too well. "Once you have them, hold for the order to transport."

Hunt smiled as Hezula helped him take his clothes off. He made sure to toss as many articles of clothing on top of the comms as he wanted to make sure she would not get any status report. As Hezula continued to remove his article of clothing. Hunt gently and playfully pushed her to the nearest sofa.
As she was pushed, there was some distance between them. It was not long after that Hunt listened that the package has arrived at the destination. The main objective got accomplished.
Thank God He though. The second part is the extraction. If he would leave the room right now, it would be fairly quickly before she realized what happened. In which case their extraction on the ship might be more dangerous.
He hoped that they would get his earlier poisoned pawn message as his extraction would be the last or possibly not possible.
As he thought about how to leave where we were the obvious solution which was running away came to mind. However, with the locks and the guards that would be impossible. Hunt approached Hezula and kissed her on the lips and looked at her blue eyes. He continued kissing her as he wondered what other options he had.

[Felicity Ellis - Medusa]As Jem joined them and they began to move toward the bridge, Felicity reached out, intent on giving Leanna's uncle's arm a squeeze in greeting. There was a silent promise there too in her quick smile of affection: they'd catch up later. First things first, they had to get everyone, along with that precious package, off this "Pleasure" Planet. Quinn was just as efficient and capable as she'd remembered. He seamlessly took control of the situation, answering one of the other undercover officer's questions without delay. She had always known he'd move upward with speed, and she was pleased to note that in this case, she'd been right in her evaluation. She moved toward a free console and began initiating the process of requesting clearance. The Medusa was not due to leave, but provided nobody in the control room realised it was Jem Sparkles' private vessel, and that Jem Sparkles was not continuing her set, they should be okay. Part of the pull of places like these was that those in positions of service were discreet, and they never openly passed comment on the eccentricities of the wealthy. They kept those kind of chats to off-duty parties. Once she'd submitted the request she glanced over toward Cromer. "What's your name, Officer?" [Aydin Tang - Medusa]Some time later, Aydin Tang boarded the ship. He'd been silent the whole way there, and remained so until he approached the bridge. Once he had visually located his wife, his shoulders relaxed somewhat, and he turned to 'Six' and the task at hand. "You have it?" He asked with zero preamble.

[ Hezula - VIP Area] As more of Tuxedo's clothes were taken off him, Hezula grinned appreciatively, enjoying the thrill it was giving her and the reaction she was getting. Years of experience and knowing what a lover liked, hadn't failed her yet and she doubted that she would disappoint with Tuxedo. This may only be a one time thing but she was going to make sure, that every second counted. Grinning wickedly as he then gently and playfully pushed her onto the nearest sofa. Her reaction was one of approval, especially as he looked into her eyes before kissing her. Moaning softly as he continued, using her hands to explore in response to how he was making her feel. " You're... good at this... now show me what else you've got" she teased between kisses, pressing herself closer, now that they were both naked.
