"I have the warden on a secure com channel Captain," barked the console. Hunter, who had been reading daily reports in his ready room acknowledged the call. "Patch it through to me here." he said.

A haggard looking Klingon appeared on his screen. "Welcome back to our little gulag Captain Hunter. We've been expecting you. "

"General Barlok, I had no idea you were still commandant after all these years." The klingon grinned, "How many can boast dominion over an entire planetoid?" he replied in jest.

Hunter smiled and nodded his head. "Did you get my request?" he asked.

Barlok scowled, "Things may not be as harsh as they once where, but visitors!? I have a reputation to maintain!"

"The Alien's Graveyard?" queried Hunter.

Barlok snapped his fingers. "Yes! The Alien's Graveyard!" Then, he slammed his hand on his desk, "We will still send a man to his death if he disobeys."

"I understand." said Hunter, "but will you allow it?"

The warden scowled again, "Only because it is you."

"Thank-you, Dr. Dane and I will beam down to the surface when we arrive."

A displeased look crossed Barlok's face. "I...can't allow that. You will have to come down on the transport with the prisoners. We do not drop the magnetic field for any reason."

"Understood."

Barlok continued, "The transport will commence at 0600. Your prisoners will be beamed aboard and then delivered to the surface. The transport is meeting 3 other ships. It will make several trips to and from the surface as it transports the prisoners to the surface and dilythium back up to a cargo ship."

Hunter nodded as Barlok spoke.

"The transport leaves for the last time at tomorrow at 2359. If you are not on it, you will be stranded here for 30 days until it comes back again.
