CEO_McLir says:
::Quickly turns to CTO and scowls::

XO_Wnters says:
COMM: Tug: We are ready to be released.

Amb_McD says:
::Enters the Bridge...rather haggard, but looking somewhat energetic::

CEO_McLir says:
::Shakes head and smiles::

Ops_Ander says:
FCO: Got that, Lehari? Impulse power at your disposal.

Host Rob-AGM says:
<Tug>Com: Scimitar: Dropping Tractor beam.

Ops_Ander says:
All: Ambassador on the bridge.

CEO_McLir says:
::Looks up as McDowell enters::

Host Rob-AGM says:

Ops: Got it.

Ops_Ander says:
XO: Confirmed...tractor beam has been released.

XO_Wnters says:
CEO: Take her in “Second Officer”. :: steps aside ::

Amb_McD says:
::Looks over at everyone:: All: I doubt you want to pay respects to a possible convict.

Ops_Ander says:
::Looks back, grins at the new second officer::

CEO_McLir says:
*EO* Recheck the IDF.

Host ADM_Sarak says:
::Enters the turbolift and heads for the bridge::

CEO_McLir says:

CTO_Bucha says:
::Glances at McDowell, and without a word waits the CEO's commands::

EO_Keorn says:
*CEO* Aye Sir. ::Begins running IDF and SIF diagnostics::

MO_Maor says:
::exiting quarters and heading to SB1::

Amb_McD says:
::Quietly walks over to his usual seat in the back of the bridge, sits down to enjoy possibly the last ride he'll have in a starship::

Host ADM_Sarak says:
::Steps onto the bridge::

CEO_McLir says:
FCO: 3/4 impulse.

Ops_Ander says:
All: Admiral on the bridge! ::Snaps to attention::

MO_Maor says:
::Enters SB1::

Host ADM_Sarak says:
All: As you where.

Ops_Ander says:
::Resumes station::

Amb_McD says:
::Looks over to the Admiral, gives a half-baked smile...hiding himself::

CTO_Bucha says:
::Stands at attention::

EO_Keorn says:
*CEO* IDF and SIF are running at 90%.

CEO_McLir says:
OPS: Contact McKinley Station for docking instructions. :: Stands taller::

XO_Wnters says:
Adm: Welcome to the bridge, our new Second Officer was just about to take us in to McKinley.

CEO_McLir says:
*EO* Noted, thank you

FCO_Jamin says:
CEO: Aye. ::Decreases Scimitar's speed to 3/4th impulse.::

CEO_McLir says:
::Scans systems::

Ops_Ander says:
CEO: Aye, sir. ::opens Comm:: *McKinley* Earth Station McKinley, this is the USS Scimitar, requesting clearance for docking.

CTO_Bucha says:
::Returns to seat behind tac::

Host ADM_Sarak says:
::Nods to the XO:: XO: I need to speak with Captain McDowell.

Host ADM_Sarak says:
<DM>COM: Scimitar: You are cleared to dock in maintenance berth A-12.

CEO_McLir says:
::Feeling just a little embarrassed at coming back beat up again::

XO_Wnters says:
Adm: I am sure the Captain wouldn't mind you using her ready room.

Host ADM_Sarak says:
::Turns towards Captain McDowel::

CEO_McLir says:
FCO: You copying docking instructions?

Ops_Ander says:
*McKinley* Maintenance berth Alpha-12, confirmed. Scimitar out. ::closes channel::

EO_Keorn says:
:: Mounts new sign on McLir’s door (sign reads "CEO McLir LtCmdr")::

Amb_McD says:
::Gives a slight glance, gets up, and walks down the stairs into the room::

FCO_Jamin says:
CEO: Yes I do. Berth A-12.

Host ADM_Sarak says:
XO: We can use the Conference Room.

Host ADM_Sarak says:
McDowell: Follow me please.

XO_Wnters says:
:: shrugs :: Adm: Very well.

CPOHansen says:
<Lt_Logan>::Watches as Scimitar begins its journey through the main doors::

CEO_McLir says:
ALL: Let's do her proud people, these are battle scars, not mistakes we're wearing.

Ops_Ander says:
*Hansen* Bridge to Hansen...thought you'd like to know that I've granted your section first shore leave. Enjoy it, Chief.

Amb_McD says:
::Enters the RR, motions to the Admiral for a seat...almost habitually goes to the seat behind the desk::

Host ADM_Sarak says:
::Leads the way::

Ops_Ander says:
CEO: Aye, aye, sir.

CPOHansen says:
*Ops* Don't worry about that, sir, we will.

Ops_Ander says:
*Hansen* Knock yourself out. Bridge out.

Amb_McD says:
::Looks behind him...shrugs...walks off to the other side of the Bridge and into the CR::

Host ADM_Sarak says:
::Waits ‘till the conference room door closes::

CEO_McLir says:
FCO: Please advise when McKinley has control.

Amb_McD says:
Adm: Thought it might be a little more private to use then the RR.

CTO_Bucha says:
::Sees yeoman enter the bridge and takes a coffee::

Host ADM_Sarak says:
McDowell: This will be quick.  I want to know why you disobeyed a direct order from the ship’s Commanding Officer.

CEO_McLir says:
::Looks at XO, head cocked, one brow raised.::

EO_Keorn says:
:: Begins to straighten up to make Main Engineering look as good as possible::

XO_Wnters says:
:: Nods to CEO :: CEO: Doing good.

CEO_McLir says:
::Nods his thanks, and turns back to screen::

Host ADM_Sarak says:
::Looks at McDowell:: McDowell: Well Captain?

CPOHansen says:
::Nods as relief for TR1 comes in, logs off and heads for CPO quarters::

Amb_McD says:
::Face suddenly "brightens" into one of his famously serious cold stares:: Adm: Scimitar Senior Staff failed to realize, and I don't blame them, that we had completely separate orders. I could not abandon my orders, and given the, yes old, knowledge that the wormhole was still open, I still had the ability to complete my mission separate from continuing harm to the Scimitar.

FCO_Jamin says:
::Watches as McKinley takes over control:: CEO: McKinley just took control, sir.

Host ADM_Sarak says:
McDowell: Well disregarding the safety of the ship.  Do you normal do as you see fit on a vessel at Red Alert?

CEO_McLir says:
FCO: Acknowledged, verify 1/4 impulse, drop to thrusters.

Ops_Ander says:
CEO: Telemetry uplink to McKinley docking control stable, sir.

CEO_McLir says:
OPS: Acknowledged.

CPOHansen says:
::Enters quarters, grabs already-packed bag off bunk and heads out door::

FCO_Jamin says:
CEO: 1/4 impulse. Down to thrusters.

Amb_McD says:
Adm: Permission to speak freely...sir?

Host ADM_Sarak says:
McDowell: Yes.

CEO_McLir says:
FCO/OPS: All control to McKinley Station.

Ops_Ander says:
CEO: Docking operations functions transferred.

XO_Wnters says:
CEO: You've done this before? :: smiles ::

Host ADM_Sarak says:
Action: The Scimitar is guided into position by the docking tractor beams and with a gentle thud, she docks.

Amb_McD says:
Adm: Frankly, the fact that the ship was at Red Alert had no bearing, in my opinion. We, the senior staff and I, had discussed this before in two separate meetings.

FCO_Jamin says:
::Hands over the last of her controls to McKinley:: CEO: Done.

MO_Maor says:
::Hears the ship docks::

CEO_McLir says:
::Gives a deep sigh:: XO: ::Grins:: Just read the book sir. ::Laughs::

Amb_McD says:
Adm: Which is bigger, sir, the safety of a ship, or the safety of a single person trying to ensure the safety of possibly a quadrant?

EO_Keorn says:
::Feels the ship dock with McKinley::

Amb_McD says:
::Doesn't even notice the thud...too enraged::

Host ADM_Sarak says:
McDowell: That is your opinion.  However based on the facts I have gathered so far, I am taking the following actions.

CEO_McLir says:
::Notes soft tap as Scimitar docks::

Ops_Ander says:
CEO: Hard-point connection confirmed.

CPOHansen says:
::Makes his way to airlock, with two or three other Ops techs waiting::

MO_Maor says:
::Checks some PADDs::

CPOHansen says:
<Lt_Logan>::Approaches airlock where Scimitar is arriving::

CEO_McLir says:
OPS: Thank you.  Ensure station power connections.

Host ADM_Sarak says:
McDowell: Captain Robert McDowell, by the authority invested in me by Starfleet Command you are hereby relieved all duties until further notice.

Ops_Ander says:
CEO: Umbilicals connected...power connections confirmed, sir.

Amb_McD says:
::Folds arms:: Adm: You do what you have to do...sir. ::said rather forcefully:: Adm: Unless you want to order otherwise, I'll prefer to defend myself, considering my orders were sealed to myself.

CEO_McLir says:
*MO* Ensure all personal still requiring medical attention are ready for departure.

Host ADM_Sarak says:
Action: The Scimitar lights flicker as she switches between her own power and the station’s.

MO_Maor says:
::Finishes reviewing last of the PADDs::

Ops_Ander says:
::Leans back in chair:: Ladies and gentlemen...we are home.

CEO_McLir says:
::Turns to XO:: Docking completed sir.

Host ADM_Sarak says:
McDowell: That is your choice. But I would recommend getting legal council.

CEO_McLir says:
::Grins at Ed's comment and nods::

MO_Maor says:
::Checks time::

XO_Wnters says:
CEO: Great job.

CEO_McLir says:
XO: Full shore leave or standard shifts?

XO_Wnters says:
Ops: I was born here Lt.

CEO_McLir says:
XO: Thank you sir.

Host ADM_Sarak says:
McDowell: You are dismissed.

Ops_Ander says:
XO: At McKinley, sir?

Amb_McD says:
::Still slightly glaring:: Adm: Noted, and probably removed from consideration. I've done defense court-martials before, thank you. ::sends an address to the Admiral's PADD:: You may find me at that address until the court-martial begins. Will that be all...sir?

Ops_Ander says:
::Grins::

CTO_Bucha says:
*Ens. Hobbs*: take all weapons off-line...   we're home.

XO_Wnters says:
CEO: Full Shore leave for everybody.

Host ADM_Sarak says:
::Turns and heads back out to the bridge::

Amb_McD says:
::tonelessly:: Adm: Thank you. ::stands up, turns around with such a sharp military stiffness that it's impressive...walks out onto the bridge::

Host ADM_Sarak says:
::Sees the XO and heads to him::

Ops_Ander says:
::Notices McDowell coming onto the bridge::

EO_Keorn says:
*CEO* Sir when you have a moment I would like to speak with you if it is all right.

Host ADM_Sarak says:
XO: A word with you Commander.

MO_Maor says:
::Checks orders::

XO_Wnters says:
Adm: Yes sir.

CEO_McLir says:
*EO* Standard Engineering status for all systems. Be with you shortly Keorn.

CPOHansen says:
::Hears airlock opening up, notices McKinley techs starting to move forward from other side::

EO_Keorn says:
*CEO* Aye Sir.

Amb_McD says:
Bridge: Good day all. Enjoy the time off. I'm sure I will. ::Enters the TL with the same sharp, stiff movements...gives a salute to everyone as the door closes::

Host ADM_Sarak says:
::Aside to XO::XO: Captain McDowell has been relieved of duties effective now.

MO_Maor says:
Self: Earth.. ::sigh::

CEO_McLir says:
::Turns to XO as Admiral makes announcement::

XO_Wnters says:
Adm: Understood.

Amb_McD says:
TL: Deck 4, Section 12.

CEO_McLir says:
::Still not comfortable around the Admiral::

Host ADM_Sarak says:
XO: Have you docked?

Lt_Logan says:
::Sees a chief petty officer, approaches him:: Hansen: Excuse me...I'm looking for Lieutenant j.g. Edward Andersen.

XO_Wnters says:
Adm: Yes sir.

CEO_McLir says:
::Checks the shut down of systems::

CEO_McLir says:
XO: Permission to take warp core offline.

XO_Wnters says:
CEO: Granted.

Host ADM_Sarak says:
XO: Very well I must be going. Have the Command Staff leave contact information with my office in case I need to contact them.

Ops_Ander says:
<Hansen>Logan: Um...Lieutenant Andersen is on the bridge, sir. I can contact him if you wish...

EO_Keorn says:
:: Sees the McKinley CEO come into Main Engineering and updates him on status::

CEO_McLir says:
::Nods to OPS and begins warp power shutdown::

XO_Wnters says:
Adm: Aye sir.

Amb_McD says:
::Gets out of the TL and goes into his office:: *OPS* Ed, can I have all of my belongings beamed to this address? ::sends up the address to an apartment outside of Columbus, Old Ohio::

Host ADM_Sarak says:
::Leaves the bridge then the Scimitar::

CEO_McLir says:
XO: Sir, going below if there is nothing more for now.

Ops_Ander says:
::nods back to CEO, receives address:: *McDowell* Address received, sir...I'll have one of my assistants transport your belongings ASAP.

Host Rob-AGM says:
Action: The Scimitar begins to empty out as her crew leaves for a much-needed shore leave.

MO_Maor says:
::Leaves the SB and locks it::

Lt_Logan says:
Hansen: That will be fine, thanks.

XO_Wnters says:
:: Sends note to all crew telling them to send contact info to the Admiral ::

CSOBandra says:
:: Wakes up and takes a quick shower. ::

Ops_Ander says:
<Hansen>*Ops* Hansen to bridge...Lieutenant, there's a Lieutenant Logan to see you...shall I have him report to the bridge?

Ops_Ander says:
*Hansen* No...I'll come down in a second. Andersen out.

CEO_McLir says:
::Leaves bridge for Main Engineering::

MO_Maor says:
::Waits::

Amb_McD says:
*OPS* Thank you Ed. Please beam me personally to those coordinates. *CEO* Niall...Watch after my baby, even if it isn't mine any more. ::Looks around, takes in a shaky breath...tries to take a picture for memory::

Ops_Ander says:
*McDowell* My pleasure, sir. Andersen out.

CTO_Bucha says:
::Walks up beside the XO::  XO: Thanks for the champagne...  ::smiles::

Ops_Ander says:
CEO: If there isn't anything else, sir...

CSOBandra says:
::Gets into uniform, changes into off duty's instead::

CEO_McLir says:
::Shocked at McDowell's voice:: *Amb* Of course sir.

CTO_Bucha says:
::Checks the time and realizes K'tarn's briefing is in 5 minutes.::

Amb_McD says:
::Looks over, grabs the bottle of champagne before he's beamed out::

FCO_Jamin says:
::Leaves bridge and gets in TL headed for her quarters first::

CTO_Bucha says:
::Enters TL::TL: TR1

Host Gen_Ktarn says:
::Heads for briefing Room one at SF HQ::

Ops_Ander says:
<Hansen>Logan: By the way, sir, Lieutenant Andersen is a full lieutenant now. He'll be here in a few.

CEO_McLir says:
::Enters Main Engineering and sees Keorn:: EO: Quickly lad, I want to make that briefing.

EO_Keorn says:
CEO: Sir I would like to stay onboard and work with the repair crews.  I know I haven't been much help with the court-martial, I was shocked, but I want to make up for it.

Cap_Laft says:
::Arrives at the appropriate co-ordinates and checks where he should be with the Duty Officer::

Ops_Ander says:
::Notices McLir's off the bridge, goes ahead and secures Ops, then heads for the TL::

Amb_McD says:
%::Is beamed into his apartment. The maid's been keeping it just as he left it four years ago::

CEO_McLir says:
::Purses lips:: Keorn: Negative, leave it to the station techs.  Why not come with me?

CTO_Bucha says:
::Enters TR1 and instructs Hansen to transport him just outside BR1 at SF HQ::

CSOBandra says:
::leaves Scimitar and heads for K’tarn’s meeting::

Cap_Laft says:
<Duty Officer> Laft: Down that corridor and third door to the right Sir.

Lt_Logan says:
Hansen: Thank you, Chief. As you were.

Cap_Laft says:
::Nods to the Duty Officer and starts walking::

Amb_McD says:
%::Looks around, watches EVERYTHING he ever brought aboard the Scimitar, including Corky, be beamed in::

Ops_Ander says:
<Hansen>Logan: Aye, sir. ::Heads off on his shore leave::

EO_Keorn says:
CEO: Aye sir, I hadn’t heard of a meeting.  Where is it to be held, here at the station?

CEO_McLir says:
EO: Let's go to the lecture, then we'll discuss your plans.

Host Gen_Ktarn says:
::Enters the briefing room and checks to see if his notes are in place::

CEO_McLir says:
::Grabs Keorn's arm and takes him to transporter padd::

EO_Keorn says:
::Follows McLir::

CSOBandra says:
@::Enters room and looks around. Nods at K’tarn::

Ops_Ander says:
<OpsPO>*McDowell* Scimitar to Captain McDowell...confirming transport of your personal belongings, sir.

CTO_Bucha says:
::Steps on transport pad and rematerializes outside of BR1::

Cap_Laft says:
::Wondering about all the stacked-up PADDs he left in his office aboard the USS Neitszche::

MO_Maor says:
::Still waits for the CMO and the FCO::

Ops_Ander says:
TL: Deck 8.

Host Gen_Ktarn says:
@::Notices the room filling up::

XO_Wnters says:
:: Walks into the transporter room :: Ens: Beam me to the outside of K’tarn’s briefing.

Lt_Logan says:
::Twiddles thumbs waiting for Andersen::

CEO_McLir says:
::Keorn and McLir transport to SFH and quickly enter briefing room::

Cap_Laft says:
::Arrives at the second door on the right ... hesitates ... remembers .. walks on::

Amb_McD says:
%::Bends down, pets Corky rather distanced...then stands up:: *PO* Everything's here Chief. Good day. ::Thinks for a moment...then walks into the closet, puts on Civilian clothes, and transports to the briefing::

FCO_Jamin says:
::Leaves her quarters and heads for the exit::

Ops_Ander says:
::Arrives on Deck 8, heads for airlock::

Host Gen_Ktarn says:
@::Looks at his watch and sees that it’s time to begin::

CTO_Bucha says:
@:: Waits for the room to fill up and then enters...   staying amongst the crowd, almost like he doesn't want to be seen::

Cap_Laft says:
*Nietzsche* Commander ... sort out my desk while I am away please. ::grins to self::

CEO_McLir says:
@::Turns to Keorn:: EO: Let's sit here.

EO_Keorn says:
@::Takes seat next to McLir::

XO_Wnters says:
@:: Materializes ::

CSOBandra says:
@:: Takes a seat::

Amb_McD says:
@ ::Beams in...sees everyone...takes a seat at the very back of the lecture hall::

Ops_Ander says:
::Sees red-collared lieutenant at the airlock waiting...hasn't seen him in six months::

Cap_Laft says:
@::Adjusts uniform and walks into the room::

CMO_McCel says:
::Rubs eyes and face as he approaches the airlock::

Lt_Logan says:
Ops: You've been promoted.

Cap_Laft says:
@::looks around::

CMO_McCel says:
::Arrives at the air lock::

MO_Maor says:
CMO: Sir.. I was waiting for you.

CTO_Bucha says:
@:: Notices McDowell in the back of the lecture hall, but keeps distance::

FCO_Jamin says:
::Sees MO and joins him::

Ops_Ander says:
Logan: So have you...where's Lieutenant Bayliss? I thought you two would arrive together.

Host Gen_Ktarn says:
@::Notices that the room is a mixture of Starfleet officers and Klingon officers....so he does not feel so out of place in his Klingon battle dress::

XO_Wnters says:
@:: Walks into the room and sits down near the front ::

CMO_McCel says:
MO: You can drop the sir, it gives me the creeps.

MO_Maor says:
CMO: I know. ::grin::

Amb_McD says:
@ ::Sees the CTO glance up at him...mumbles something to himself:: So it begins...

EO_Keorn says:
@::Keorn begins to look nervous when the Klingon officers are present::

CEO_McLir says:
@::Leans back and wonders what the subject will be?::

MO_Maor says:
FCO/CMO: Let's head out?

Cap_Laft says:
@::Is suddenly concerned .... this is not a usual situation::

CMO_McCel says:
MO: Sure.

Lt_Logan says:
Ops: He's dead...he was assigned to the USS Avenger a month after we last met. She was destroyed two months ago by a Dominion raiding party.

FCO_Jamin says:
MO/CMO: Hello Maor, Steve. Yeah let's, before we waste the time here.

Host Gen_Ktarn says:
@All: Welcome to Starfleet Headquarters.  I am General K'tarn of the Klingon Defense Force....some of you may know me as Captain K'tarn of the Pharaoh or Delphyne.

MO_Maor says:
::Exits::

CSOBandra says:
@::Listening::

Host Gen_Ktarn says:
@All: Today’s briefing is on the likely threats you will be facing now that the war is over.

CEO_McLir thinks:
@::Hearing a lot about him lately::

Ops_Ander says:
Logan: I'm sorry...

Cap_Laft says:
@::Listening .... holding lucky piece in his left pocket::

Lt_Logan says:
Ops: I'm not here to exchange condolences with you, Andersen. You know why I'm here.

Cap_Laft says:
@::at the back of the room, not sure why he was told to get here quick::

Host Gen_Ktarn says:
@All: Many of you may think that it will be easy going.  However it has often been proven that the time right after a major war is more difficult then the war itself.

CSOBandra says:
@::Pulls out tricorder and begins recording::

Ops_Ander says:
::grumbles to himself:: Logan: Yes, yes. Come with me...

Lt_Logan says:
::stops at airlock:: Guard: Permission to come aboard, sir.

CEO_McLir says:
@::Hopes he can get some more Irish whiskey for "that" Lieutenant::

Host Gen_Ktarn says:
@All: It is now time to rebuild and to ward off pirates, which Intel believes can be a major threat.

Ops_Ander says:
<Guard>Logan: Permission granted.

EO_Keorn says:
@::Listens closely::

CTO_Bucha says:
@::Listening...   eyes shifting around the room::

Ops_Ander says:
::Heads for TL, Logan in tow::

Cap_Laft says:
@::Shuffles away from the door ... trying to be inconspicuous::

Amb_McD says:
@ ::Listens in somewhat interestedly...isn't really here any longer for note-taking and idea-integrating::

Host Gen_Ktarn says:
@All: I’d like a show of hands of those that have face battles with a numerically large force of small attack ships.

Cap_Laft says:
@::which is not easy in full dress uniform::

XO_Wnters says:
@ :: Grins and raises his hand ::

CEO_McLir says:
@::Raises hand::

MO_Maor says:
::Walks away from the Scimitar::

Ops_Ander says:
TL: Deck 6.

Cap_Laft says:
@::Considers raising hand ,,,,, half raises it::

FCO_Jamin says:
::Follows the Doctors off the ship.::

Lt_Logan says:
Ops: You've been away for longer than 120 days.

CTO_Bucha says:
@::Notices a shuffling by the door and sees Cap_Laft::

Cap_Laft says:
@::Lowers hand::

MO_Maor says:
CMO/FCO: Where are you staying?

EO_Keorn says:
@::Raises hand slowly::

CSOBandra says:
@::Raises hand::

Ops_Ander says:
Logan: It wasn't by my choice, Lieutenant. In fact, this whole thing wasn't by my choice, remember?

Ops_Ander says:
::TL deposits them on Deck 6, they exit::

Host Gen_Ktarn says:
@All: I can see some of you have. ::points to the Commander in the first row...i.e. Commander Winters:: What was the out come of your battle, Commander?

Cap_Laft says:
@::Wishes he had had time to get clued up about why he was told to get here::

EO_Keorn says:
@::Lowers hand into lap and glances around, feels the hair on his neck stand on end::

Lt_Logan says:
Ops: You agreed to use the...item in your counter-invasive efforts...

XO_Wnters says:
@K’tarn: The Scimitar sustained heavy damage, she is going to be in dry-dock for a while.

XO_Wnters says:
@K’tarn: The Pharaoh was a big help sir.

Ops_Ander says:
Logan: ...which you and Starfleet Intelligence received a report on as soon as we left space dock. There was no need to leave the whole chip with us.

Ops_Ander says:
::Enters quarters with Logan::

Cap_Laft says:
@::Quickly taps into PADD to find out what is going on . The PADD says embargoed so no clue ...::

Host Gen_Ktarn says:
@Winters: Commander, I take it that the ships, in small numbers, posed no real threat to a starship, correct?

Host Gen_Ktarn says:
@::Grins at Winters’ mention of his old Command::

Lt_Logan says:
Ops: Well, we're going to rectify that now, aren't we?

Cap_Laft says:
@::Decides to just stay “stumm” and listen in case something may mean something .... and a quick exit to the wife and children given half a chance::

XO_Wnters says:
@K’tarn: Yes sir.

Ops_Ander says:
::does a slow burn:: Logan: Since Bayliss isn’t here, I'm going to have to use a different type of protocol. Fortunately, I planned ahead...computer, initiate security protocol Andersen-Alpha-One for verification of identity.

CMO_McCel says:
::The three people standing in the Airlock move out before they drive me insane about their complaining::

CSOBandra says:
@::Hands tricorder to Ensign and leaves, has shopping to do::

Ops_Ander says:
<Computer>Protocol Andersen-Alpha-One initiated. Proceed.

Host Gen_Ktarn says:
@All: This is the very threat that Command is worried about.  The first thing you should do when facing a large number of small ships is to keep yourself moving.

Ops_Ander says:
Logan: First, your Intel code...

Host Gen_Ktarn says:
@All: Secondly I would recommend launching any smaller armed craft you may be carrying to help combat the attacking ships.

Cap_Laft says:
@::thinks ... a good FCO moves you fast ....considers promotion for FCO ambi ...::

MO_Maor says:
::Goes to find a shuttle::

Lt_Logan says:
Ops: I know, I know...computer, recognize Logan, Raymond A., Lieutenant, Starfleet Intelligence, voice authorization Logan-Six-Eight-Foxtrot-Bravo.

CMO_McCel says:
::Follows MO on his TREK across the Station::

Logan: In Bayliss' absence...computer, proceed with second protocol, authorization Andersen-Three-Seven-Alpha-Echo.

Host Gen_Ktarn says:
@CTO: If they are armed yes...I am referring to any fighters you might have on board or the new modified Runabout beginning to be issued to the fleet.... and of course Klingon Assault Shuttles.

CMO_McCel says:
::Joins the hyperactive MO::

Ops_Ander says:
<Computer>Logan: Personal identification required.

@::mumbles:: They could at least give credit to McLir for the work.

Host Gen_Ktarn says:
@XO: I have no knowledge of that.

EO_Keorn says:
@::Looks toward the Klingon officers and sees a familiar face,  Keorn's face drains of color when he realizes his brother is sitting across from him staring at him::

CEO_McLir says:
@::Notes Keorn's reaction upon looking around::

Ops_Ander says:
Logan: If I may speak freely...sticking us with this, well, research put the Scimitar at risk. This should have been done in a lab, or at Intel headquarters.

@K'tarn:  Do you know anything about the Allegheny Security Co.?

Ops_Ander says:
Logan: Next time, you can find someone else to do this…work, if you can call it that. I'm out of the cloak-and-dagger business for good.

Lt_Logan says:
::Pulls out PADD:: Ops: Thumb scan here.

CEO_McLir says:
@EO: Wait one, it's about over lad.

@K'tarn: For instance....    Pirating history?

@::Listening to K'tarn's conversation with McDowell::

CSOBandra says:
@::Enters and takes tricorder from Ensign, stowing gift under his seat he begins to review what he missed::

Ops_Ander says:
::Waits a couple of seconds, then heads out the door...Logan long gone...heads to TL::

Amb_McD says:
@ ::Looks up::

MO_Maor says:
FCO: Are we there yet?

@ ::face pudges:: K’tarn: I'll take that both as a compliment and an insult. I've heard things about you, also...so we're mutual.

Ops_Ander says:
*McKinley Ops* Operations to Scimitar...incoming communication for Lieutenant E.T. Andersen.

Host Gen_Ktarn says:
@::laughs:: Captain: Care for a drink?

::Keorn Materializes in Scimitar TR and confronts the security guard::  Sec: I need to get some things from my quarters

Self: Ohhh.. Stars.

CEO_McLir says:
@::Looks around for Keorn and can't find him::
