Intelligence Information Center

[barada]

This thread is for operations within the Intelligence Information Center. The IIC duplicates the "black room" of the Starfleet IIC at Starfleet Headquarters.

The IIC is a space-black room and filled with numerous action stations. It is tied into the Overt and Covert Communications Networks and any and all information and/or data within the known galaxy is routed through this facility which is manned around the clock by intelligence officers and specialists.

Data is collected, cataloged, deciphered and distributed along the OCN and CCN through the IIC.

::A compilation of the Intelligence collected on the Impostor Threat scrolled up on the Big Screen. The various specialists took note, as they worked at their action stations.::


-Over 6,000 thousand ships have invaded Federation, Romulan, Klingon and Ferengi Space. These ships appeared and continue to appear.
-Ships are Impostors, appearing outwardly to be Federation, Romulan, Klingon and Ferengi ships.
-The Federation, Romulan, Klingon, and the Ferengi have agreed to work together on this threat.
-Impostor ships have engaged ships from the various powers in combat. Impostor ships are attempting to disrupt scans of their vessels. And will self-destruct if defeated in combat or their shields are brought down. Boarding actions are prohibited.
-3000 Impostor ships are headed into Breen Space. They appeared seemingly from nowhere. We have been attempting to contact the Breen.
-All ships have been ordered not to enter Breen Space or the Orion Territory unless specifically ordered to.
-All Starfleet vessels have been ordered to name one of their officers as intelligence officer.
-Impostor ships it has been noted all give of a high-pitched carrier wave signal. All Impostor ships give off this signal.
-Impostor ships internal configurations are slightly different than the ships they are masquerading as.
-Impostor ship personnel read as humanoid on sensor scans.
-Impostor ships are capable of high warp speed.
-Impostor ships appear to be able to appear and disappear at will.
-Impostor beam weaponry mimicks known species technology (beam weapons), but has a distinct phase variance.

::Colonel Barada entered the Intelligence Information Center with Lieutenant Dalton hot on his heels. There was an area at the center of the room. It was referred to quite simply as the "Perch." It was very similar to the bridge/walkway/workstation area of starship stellar cartography. It was quite simply, the sum of all knowledge. All intelligence information in the know universe could be called up and manipulated from that perch. It was the station that was normally manned by the officer in charge of the IIC.::

"Colonel in the Hole." ::One of the officers called out.::

::Barada nodded. It was a tradition that Intelligence Information Centers were referred to as "Holes." It was derived from the fact that IICs were generally buried deep below, in a hole in the ground. Optimus was mobile, much like the various mobile intelligence vessels, but much more than any previously.::

::Barada led the lieutenant up to the "Perch."::

"Station, Mr. Dalton. Confirm the transmission from Section 31. I want to prepare a response immediately." ::Barada ordered..::

::Intelligence operations were a delicate thing. He was a marine, and not just a marine but the elite, a Space Marine. So Barada was used to commanding personnel in life and death situations. But his work in Intelligence had taught him a more subtle and more deadly form or warfare. The galaxy was a chessboard. And every piece was constantly in play.::

::As the lieutenant worked, the Colonel took the lift down to the main, lower level of the IIC. He walked and checked out the activities of the specialists. The constant streams of data were amazing.::

::Walking over to one of the action stations, he called up the CCN, the Covert Communications Network. Most individuals had no idea it existed, even Starfleet officers. There were various satellites, derelicts, asteroid and so on that had been outfitted with the most sophisticated communications equipment devised. Some still experimental.::

::Waving his hand over the console, Barada flipped through real time holofeeds of Romulus, Earth, Qonos, Ferenginar, and a number of other locations around known space.::

[barada]

::Barada opened an encrypted channel to Section 31::

"To Director, Section 31. This is Starfleet Command. Have received your transmission. While we enjoy a tenuous relationship, we agree to share information. However, we are curious as to why you waited 19 months to contact us over the Intelligence Network."

"Surely you must have much more information than we currently possess. We look forward to any light you can shine on this situation, since it is of mutual detriment to both our objectives. Information we have collected is being quartered to you. We await your reply."

"Starfleet Command, out."

::Colonel Barada closed the channel and sent out a slightly edited version of the Intel they had collected so far. He deliberately left out tactical information from Starfleet vessel encounters.::

~ He had gotten to work on what he was asked to do.. He would look over all info about how Section 31 passes along info. He would look to his commanding officer.~ Sir all records show that the messige did come from Section 31..

***Incoming intelligence from USS Chimera NCC 70707. Encrypted Intelligence channel. Priority level 1.***

USS Chimera has come across 3 imposter ships shortly after meeting up with the 5th fleet and making contact with a Romulan fleet across the Neutral Zone. We informed the Romulans, and gave them the option of crossing the neutral zone to assist us with the investigation.

We intercepted the lead imposter ship, but the lead Romulan ship followed us and were about to fire on the imposters, causing them to vanish, before we could get more detailed scans.

Relevant information:
1. The ship we scanned had the same configuration as a Valdore class bird of prey.
2. Internal scans were inconclusive beyond the ship's power signature.
3. When they disappeared, a slight subspace instability was detected in the area where the ship had been.
4. The other two ships that did not disappear retreated.
5. The Romulan ships accompanying us detected about the same things we did.

Redundant information:
1. The high pitched noises and other frequencies were characterisitc of what other ships have detected from the imposters.

The Chimera is returning to the rest of the fleet for more investigations.

"Very good, Lieutenant. Reply sent. Monitor for a response. It should prove fascinating. I do not believe they will answer my question. But I am curious why they have waited this long to contact us."

[dalton]

A nod of the head was given " Aye Sir." He would look down and would see transmission comming in." Sir we have a transmission comming in from the USS Chimera"

He would then look over all info. " It seems they have come across 3 invader ships. It seems it happen shortly they had there meeting with the 5th fleet."

He would scroll down further. " All there scanes came back that it is an invader ship sir"

[SF Command]

"Colonel Barada to the ready-room immediately."

[barada]

::Colonel Barada returned to the IIC. His long legs striding as quickly as possivble and that was pretty quick indeed. Mane of hair flowing behind him.::

"All right people listen up!" ::He almost roared.::

"We have a Priority One situation. Everything else is secondary. The President's ship has been attacked and we are sure that it is Impostor ships. The President and the First Lady were aboard and now their ship and these two key leaders have gone missing without a trace."

"This is unacceptable! As far as I am concerned everyone in this room is FIRED! I have a bunch of reports and no correlations. Where are my ANALYSTS!?! Get me analysis. Get me something the beings in the field can USE to combat this threat----and you can have your JOBS back! I expect you to earn your keep starting now!"

"Let's work the intel! Let's work the PROBLEM people. We will NOT remain behind the curve on this. I will not have it. Now SNAP to it! Double shifts!"

::Barada stated and then strode off to the "Perch". He was a leader by example and would never order a man to do anything he was not willing to do himself.::

::No one ws fired of course. But the Colonel wanted to get the point across that if they were providing correlations---providing options---they might as well not be there at all.::

[dalton]

~ He had been working and would here what his commanding officer said Colonel K. Barada.. He would look down when he seen the incomming messige from Section.. ~

Sir we have a messinge from Section 31. I think you may want to look at it.. It has some odd things in it that I am not sure if I can belive or not Sir.

[barada]

::Colonel Barada gave a hand signal and the transmission came up on the Big Board.::


* The Screen will come to life in the Intelligence area.. The Directore was sitting there his hand tapping on the desck infrount of him.. He would softly start to talk.. He had hered many things and had got some more to give to th fleet*

Hello again.. I have more info to give you.. The invaders have some nice things going for them that they have been using. I have been watching them and they seem to not have seen me.

This Tec they have been using is cloning technology in their war with the Dominion..... The technology apparently makes the Clone look like a humanoid they wish to mimic in wich will meen they can do that with any one..

It seems thought it only works with in appearance only...But it is not actual cloning...More of a "molding" technology you can say.. * He would move his own hand into the darkness that seem to always be about him.. His vocie would only be hered now*

The outward appearances, voice, and mannerisms are all identical...But biologically they are not the same as the mimicked humanoid.

My Agents have been watching them and have seen them us it.. They seem to "grow" the mimic's in a pod..

* The Screen would then go dark*

[barada]

::Barada looked at the screen and then to Lieutenant Dalton.::

"Mr. Dalton get that together in a communique and get it out to the Fleet. And make it a priority message for the Rear Admiral Danrea. She is Head of Starfleet Medical. We are going to need a baseline on these---things."

[dalton]

~ He would do what he was asked to do and would look to Colonel K. Barada ~

Sir what do you think of it?

~A nod of his head was given~

Aye Sir I am on it.. I will be sending it out to her right now..
