The Manticore, under cloak, is at Statiak Prime, soon to be a member 
of the Federation.  A9 was given the mission to investigate the 
people in advance of the induction, as some in the Fed Council 
have suspicions about this society.  The ship snuck in, under cloak, 
while A9 took the Pegasus down, disguised as a Diplomatic Shuttle, 
to keep the bureacrats busy.  Meanwhile, two away teams covertly 
beamed down to integrate with the locals and collect information.  
They have now found out what Statiak has been hiding, an annual 
event called the 'Purge." This is a 12-hour period when the gov't 
sanctions (oh wait, I meant sanctions, hmm never mind) violence by 
all of the population.  The teams are now trying to stay out of the way 
(in a boarded up store and a nearby sewer drain), so they can survive 
the night and report back to the Fed Council without starting a war.
