"Good morning Clora," said Siltar in a snarky voice.

"What is good about the morning?" Asked Clora, feeling tired, in pain and defeated.

"The fact your still alive." Suggested Siltar.

"Right, only reason for that, is because you want more information about the Federation." Clora said, knowing that was the only reason, she was still alive, once they got the information they needed, they would kill her. She had been suffering for three days.

Most of the attacks have been mind attacks. The physic abilities of the Crescent were impressive. Clora was learning it first hand. She was laying on the floor. Not wanting to get up. And he had yet to ask her to get up. Instead he leaned over and slid a plate to her.

"Eat, you have a big day, it will help." He said, as he took a seat at the single table that was brought into the room with two chairs.

Clora knew her best chance was to resist, but she also knew she needed to keep her strength up as well. She reached for the plate and while still laying down, and she started to eat. It was not very tasty, but it quenched her hunger pains.

"Good. Would you care to join me?" He asked. Motioning with his hands for her to sit in the chair.

She wolfed down her plate, after she completed eating the food, she looked to Siltar and said, "I prefer the floor."

"As you wish." He said, he did not need her to sit at the table to probe her mind. A glass of water was brought into the room. "The water is at the table, so if you want some, you will have to sit down, in order to get the water. The breakfast was a little salty, I imagine your thirsty?" Asked Siltar, knowing she was.

Clora sat up and slowly walked over to the table and sat in the chair. Siltar passed the water to her. She grabbed the water and gulfed it down as well. She sat in the chair, waiting to see what was going to happen next.

Tera was sitting on the chair in her cell, like Clora she was fed, but the guards forced her to sit in the chair, but she was given water as well. She was not sure what to expect today, the mind probes of her attacker, were intense. For three days she had been probed, and it was not a pleasant feeling.

Tera knew she needed to fight, she wanted to see Kerja again. She would endure any amount of pain, in order to get back to her baby girl. Her determination, only seemed to upset her torturer.

Amilla kept grinning about Tera's attempts to keep her out of her mind. "You know, lieutenant, you fighting this will only making it harder on you. Try as you might to distract me, you will always come back to your daughter. Even though I never asked about information about your daughter. I am only interested in the Federation. And yet all you do is trying to protect her. Why not give me what I need to know?"

Amilla narrowed her eyes again. She smiled. "Lieutenant, as representative of Star fleet, you aren't making a good impression on me. This is a first contact try a little harder, I have given you information about my people, it's only fair you give me something about your people." She leaned forward to Tera. "Alright, let's start easier, maybe you can talk about Bajor, about..." She searched trough her mind again. She could feel Tera fight back. "Come on that passion...yes...your 'Gods', the prophets." She said Prophets very slow as to emphesize the word. "Tell me about the Prophets? I love to hear all about them."

"You want to talk about Starfleet protocols for first contact, return me to Starfleet, and we will reach out to your people and establish first contact, abducting personal is an act of aggression. Not a first contact protocol for Starfleet or the Federation." Simply retorted Tera with a grin on her face.

Amilla shrugged, "I am not in Star fleet, and as far as I can tell, they aren't native to the area, so why don't you point me in the right direction and I will gladly bring you home. How did Star fleet ended up here? Do you have a portal? Special starship drive? Or maybe a stable wormhole?"

Tera noticed what she was trying to do. And she decided to play along. "Well you can stop off at the next planet, and and we can open a channel to the federation. I can signal my fleet to meet up with us, on that planet, and we can have a picnic together, and welcome you with open arms into our happy loving federation." Sarcastically said Tera, with a grin on her face.

Amilla shook her head. "You must take me for a fool. Just tell me how you got here and I will let you go. I may even spare Bajor for last."

Tera, noticed her tone hit a nerve with Amilla. "Aren't you the one who is fooling youself, did you think twisting federation ideology would really make me talk, are you new at this, perhaps you should bring back, that other fool ,maybe he can show you, what to do." She knew she was going to punished for her insubordination, but since she was going to be punished, might as well go all in.

Amilla was defenately annoyed. She hit her index finger on Tera's forhead. "Listen, Lieutenant, I am just trying to make you feel comfortable, but I see you want to go back to the hard way again."She gringed her teeth. "So be it."

"Torture is nothing new for my people, your just another race, trying to seek knowledge through torture, clearly by now you can see the error of your ways, but surely your own ego will not allow you to admit. Now that we have established your a weak and pathetic and new at this, bring the man back in, let him show you how to do this properly." Angrily stated Tera, she tried to struggle but the mind control Amilla had was strong.

"I'll show you how to do it." Amilla turned around. "Bring the other prisoner, now!"

Siltar heard the order from his leader. He turned to Clora. "On your feat Minster." Demanded Siltar.

Clora did as she was asked.

"We are being summoned," he suggested as the doors to the room opened.

Clora had no idea, where they were going. But cleary someone wanted to see them.

Siltar was very quite, he motioned for her to follow.

Clora did as she was told, she barely had the strength to walk.

Siltar lead her into a room, and sitting on a chair was, Tera.

"Are you okay?" Asked Clora.

"Yes," simply said Tera.

Siltar slapped Clora, "Silence, you will only speak when we direct you to speak."

Clora was motioned to sit a chair directly across from Tera.

Siltar stood near Amilla, he was curious why he was summoned.

Amilla walked around the two Bajorans. "You two have not been very coöperetive. I gave you both a chance to freely give what I wanted from you, information about the Federation, starfleet, Bajor, the Prophets." She slowly took a knife from her clothes. "One of you will not see Sephira's glory but feel her wrath." She tightened the grip around the knife as she held the knife between the two Bajorans. She looked to Tera. "This is on you." She turned around thrusted the knife in Clora's neck and pushed her dead body on the floor. "I have what I need from her, clean up this mess." She leaned forward to Tera. She put her mouth close to her ear and whispered in it, "I know about the temple of the Gods. And I will make sure your daughter will honors Sephira and her brothers and sisters there." She pulled herself back and started laughing evily as her guards grabbed Tera before she could get to Amilla.
