"What is it...But, sir we already have enough with the security alert, we don't have time to...uh yes, sir." She growled and tucked some hair under her cap, and straightened her uniform as she walked to the holographic station. "Alright I'll take it. Open a line."
the malta class cruiser "Nautilisk" appeared out of hyperspace directly above the Virulent, inside the drive yards of Kuat, quickly moving to follow it. almost immediately, a message was sent to the Virulent from the nautilisk command center. "this is captain del gona, how yall doin tonight?" on the nautilisk bridge, del was grinning ear to ear, chewing on something that vaugely resembled a slim jim. "ahem, this is captain del gona, do you mind patching me through to Daran, im in a hurry."
The holo station blinked on and her image was broadcast to the Nautilisk. "Captain Del Gona, good evening, I am Lieutenant Garlii Letho, of the Virulent. I am sorry to inform you sir, that due to a Level One security alert, we cannot patch you through to Lord Sear."

At least six hundred troops should have been stationed on this Star Destroyer; however under regulatory requirements, only three hundred had been on-board- with sixty already downed by Jacen, while the other three hundred were on shore leave. With regards to that; the surrounding fleet had already surrounded the vessel and troop carriers were inbound to help contain the threat on board the support vessel.
The Virulent was a medical and scientific vessel, most of it's crew were doctors, scientists and technicians, so no surprise that as a military vessel it is only limited. It's hallways and internal shields were designed to keep people and any virus from leaving the ship and would function on their own power even if the main generators were taken offline to prevent the spread of contamination.
Two troop carriers landed in the same hanger as the freighter 'Journey'. The troopers piled out onto the debris and corpse laden deck. They immediately moved to secure the area a boarded Jacen's vessel after scans detected no life on board.
(( OOC : I kinda used the ship in the plot well before I wanted too, but expect more vessels to crop up in a later plot thread. Possibly in another RP Thread. Anyway, some background on the Virulent... it's name comes from the latin word 'Virulentus', meaning "a poisoned wound" or "full of poison." I have been working on the ship for a while and I used it before it was ready, the final concept is this;
Virulentus-class Star Destroyer
Name : Virulent
Length : about 1050 meters
Weapons : fourty turbolasers and ion canons.
Troop Count : about 600
Thats all I can give right now, but it is a medical ship.))
