<Stardate 2423.08 -Six of Twelve>

We arrived at Outpost 36, which was located on one of many moons orbitting a gas giant. The system was within the vicinity of a Borg transwarp hub. While the hub had not been used in many years and the Borg held no interest in the sector, Kit still considered it a potential threat, so Four of Seven was instructed to watch it from Astrometrics while an away team was sent to retrieve the android children from the outpost. Additonally, Ohana was to enter the outpost cloaked and a pipeline dampening feild was set up between Prodigy and Ohana to decrease our chances of being immediatly detected by the Collective, should we appear, or the Outpost itself. Yel S'Hirt tracked the away teams position from logistics while Red S'Hirt pilotted Ohana onto the station. Six of Twelve, Colonel MarQ, Dr Saran, Dr Siril and RJ12 were to find and bring back the android children. Finding them was not difficult because Dr Saran detected their tracking becons shortly after we landed. It transpires that they were activated by an individual designated 'Haaj' who was also being kept prisoner by Dr Urel. We found the six android children, varying in ages 9 - 16 years old. They resisted leaving with us at first, believing we would harm them as Urel did. While we were debating this, we were attacked by mining droids. The droids were easily dispatched, but C6 said they were prone to exploding randomly (as confirmed by Damon). This spurred the children into agreeing to leave the room they were in but as we were headed towards the shuttle, more droids, armed soldiers and Urel herself intersected us. C3 deactivated Dr Urel by vaporizing a hole in her stomach with a weapon he previously stated not having. He actually has at least two weapons, both able to come out of his left arm; an energy weapon and a sword. His design is efficent and the first evidence we have seen that Urel may have had use. Regardless, she is now dead, as are the soldiers, except for a few that were bound and left. We returned to the shuttle and Prodigy went to Warp immediatly, as Kit intended on getting away from the transwarp hub as efficently as possible.

The android children have been taken to a playroom with Dr Saran to meet C7 and so Dr Saran can answer their questions. There is to be a conference at 1800 today to discuss creating a charging bay for them and to discuss the augment, Valen.
