"Very well. Though these, um, pals will have to remain in a secondary cargo bay, and I'll be counting on some of your people to watch over them with the assistance of some of my security officers. We have just landed nearby, as you can likely see from the colony. Let us know if you need shuttles or for materials and equipment to be beamed aboard", he explained. "Captain Howlet out", he said, ending the communication unless his interlocutor had something to add?
After which he looked at Luna. "Very interesting. I will make note of it in my log, but we will not have time to investigate them just yet. We get those people and their pals, bring them over to Fae'Rhal space at their destination and we head over to our intended starbase as soon as possible to report as planned. We can discuss the possibility of returning afterwards with the Federation, or inform the Federation and my brother if we are unable to do so, for them to do it themselves."
He got up. "In the meantime... let's assist these people in getting on board as soon as possible. Use cargo bay 3 for their pals.

They all nod as you load up hundreds of creatures of various shapes and sizes.

James himself went to see those 'Pals' up close, mostly out of curiosity, but also to see how well things were going.

You observe the Pals with interest. They are animals of various shapes and sizes almost like the Pokemon species of the Fae'Rhal empire, but with slightly less vocal range.
"Captain! We have unknown creatures trying to force their way into the ship!" Kagura declared. "They seem to be pink lizards of some kind."
The lead Piplup's eyes widened. "GET US OUT OF HERE!!!" He yelled. "We need to get away from those foul creatures!"

James tapped his commbadge to respond. "Everyone is onboard. Close the hangar door, get us off the ground. Target any of them still on the ship and beam them down to the surface", he commanded.

You lift off into the air as one by one the Lovander as beamed off of the ship before they can sink their claws into anyone.

The captain tapped his commbadge. "Howlet to cargo bay 3. Please escort whoever is in charge among our rescued guests to the bridge. I would like a word with them", he requested.

You arrive at the Bridge where an Empoleon has arrived to greet you.

"Greetings. I'm Captain James Howlett. It's good to meet you in person", he said, getting up to meet the creature. "I would like to discuss the location you wish for us to bring you to", he explained.

"Of course. Do you have any such ideas in mind?"

He raised his eyebrow.
"...Ideas? What do you mean, did you not have an intended destination before you crashed? Or if it isn't necessary for you to head there anymore, do you not have a base, or home to return to?" he asked.

"We were headng to Ferenginar to discuss some business details, however with the crash wasting most of our resources it'd be easier for us to cut our losses and return to the nearest Fae'Rhal owned world."

"Back out of the portal, correct? If I may ask, how did you end up here? What caused you to crash in the first place?" he asked, not only out of curiosity, but also as he would have to provide that information in his log.

"We were attacked by Orion Pirates." The Empoleon explained making Nami grimace.

James"I see. That is quite unfortunate", he said, giving a knowing and compassionate glance at the Lieutenant Commander, well aware of how she felt about her people's piracy tendencies.* "Very well. Mr. Hyoudou, get us back out of the portal. Ms. Nami, please set a course to the nearest Fae'Rhal world, preferably towards the starbase we're supposed to report at. Perhaps we can still make it back in time despite our little detour."
OOC: *Amusingly enough, if Nami was in a world/society that wasn't tyrannical and evil like the World Government, I don't see her becoming a pirate at all, lol. Maybe more a businesswoman. But in a world like Star Trek where money isn't really a think in the Federation and its more advanced allies, I totally see her be a Starship officer if only for the sake of exploration and adventure. )
