Summary: With Sannia’s death falsified, Doctor Brae and Agent Romae returned to the Agency vessel Anra. The Heath vessels set course back for the Heath homeworld, while the Cataria awaited recovery by the USS Challenger, and Lieutenant Ivara launched a probe to investigate a set of coordinates approximately 2 light years away.

The USS Challenger arrived, and has taken the Cataria into tow toward Starbase 121, as well as sending over additional engineering crew and equipment to begin repairs on the Cataria’s decimated Main Engineering. 

Twelve hours have passed. McQuade has been released from sickbay on light duty. All crew members have had an opportunity to rest. Now, all senior staff are called to the Conference Room to report, as well as review the probe results about to come forth.

CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::frowns down at a PADD in his hand has he makes his way to the bridge from his office::
OPS_Cdt_Inaji says:
::walks into the conference room::
CMO_Cmd_Knight-Sky says:
:: Sitting at her usual place in the conference room, going over some reports, including McQuade's::
CEO_LtJG_McQuade says:
::Moves into the Conference Room behind Inaji.::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::steps off the turbolift, looks around for a moment and heads for the conference room::
CMO_Cmd_Knight-Sky says:
:: Looks up with a nod as Inaji entered.:: OPS: Morning.
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
::steps into the conference room with PADD in one hand and a coffee mug in the other::
CMO_Cmd_Knight-Sky says:
:: Adds a nod to the engineer who followed her in.::
OPS_Cdt_Inaji says:
CMO: Morning Doctor. ::smiles and looks around unsure of where she's supposed to sit::
Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO: Well Conor... this meeting is yours. ::takes his seat at the head of the table::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::enters the room, walks over to the replicator and gets a mug of coffee before turning to the table, settling himself in his usual spot next to the Captain::
CMO_Cmd_Knight-Sky says:
:: seeing the uncertainty, points to a seat opposite from her.::
OPS_Cdt_Inaji says:
::smiles with relief and accepts her suggestion::
CMO_Cmd_Knight-Sky says:
: looks quietly over at Varesh for a moment before turning to look at the first officer.::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
CO: Delegation eh?
Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::looks over at Conor and grins::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::gives Sky a brief smile and turns his attention to Conor::
CEO_LtJG_McQuade says:
::Takes his normal seat around the table. Still trying to take it slow.::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
All: Right for those of you who have been otherwise occupied here is a brief summary of recent events.
OPS_Cdt_Inaji says:
::listens as the briefing starts::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
All: We've detected several Heath ships have been attacked by unknown pirates over the last few days. Our first encounter resulted in us bringing the child Sannia aboard.
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
All: After making contact with the Heath home world, Agent Romae and co showed up to claim the victims of the attack
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::is reminded that he owes Ethan a new pair of boots and makes a note on his PADD::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
All: We then detected encoded Cardassian signals between Romae's ship and the ship we found Sannia on about how the child can't be discovered
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::glances over at the Captain and then Sky before looking at Conor again::
CMO_Cmd_Knight-Sky says:
:: Out of the corner or her eye she catches Varesh's look toward them but says nothing.::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
All: Somehow Sannia has some sort of disease which could potentially infect the rest of the people on the Heath home world, according to Romae's doctor, Dr. Brae, they would kill Sannia to prevent it spreading further. A ruse coordinated by Dr Sky and Dr Brae resulted in convincing Romae that Sannia had died while she took back the remaining bodies. At this point diplomatic relations have broken down with the Heath people and we have seen them return.
CMO_Cmd_Knight-Sky says:
:: Did not acknowledge the statement about the ruse.::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
All: The CSO has launched a probe to the alleged coordinates of Immarii however according to Dr Brae it doesn't exist and it just to keep the status quo on their home world. The transcript of that conversation is in the computer if anyone is interested. The data from the probe should be due shortly.
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
All: Right now we're under tow by the USS Challenger towards SB121. Given they aren't cleared another signal has gone out to DS17 to come pick us up. In the meantime the Challengers engineers are assisting in the repairs to main engineering.
CMO_Cmd_Knight-Sky says:
:: Having heard that conversation, disagrees with it being on record, but that was not her call. And again, it walked that fine line of truth.::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
All: We don't know much more about the pirates but given the Heath don't want us looking around, we'll just file it as a intel report to ships operating in this sector
OPS_Cdt_Inaji says:
::takes a sip of water::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
All: I think that is a decent summary of recent events, did I miss anything or does anyone have questions?
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::clears his throat::
CMO_Cmd_Knight-Sky says:
:: Looks over at Varesh::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
XO: Sir. What are we going to do about Sannia? My understanding is she can't go back to her homeworld and Immarii doesn't exist.
OPS_Cdt_Inaji says:
XO: The computer issue is also unresolved, Sir.
Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CNS: I will be speaking to you about that privately Varesh.
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::nods:: CO: Aye, sir.
CMO_Cmd_Knight-Sky says:
:: withholds a sigh as she remains quiet in all ways::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
OPS: We can have the Challenger engineers throw a fresh set of eyes on the unexplained incidents while we have them.
OPS_Cdt_Inaji says:
::nods::
CEO_LtJG_McQuade says:
::Looks over his engineering PADD assigning engineering repair crews to critical locations.::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
CEO: Status report on repairs then?
CEO_LtJG_McQuade says:
XO: Repairs are underway. We are stripping gel pack and replacing key stations in main engineering.  Until those are in place we only have a few auxiliary consoles working to monitor key systems.
CEO_LtJG_McQuade says:
XO: We have round the clock teams spread over six decks. Most of the work right now is removal of damaged systems. I expect that to be done over the next two to three hours. After that we will bring in new systems being assembled in Cargo 1.
CEO_LtJG_McQuade says:
XO: I'm pushing for warp core power down and restart in about four to six hours. We should have at least normal cruise after that.
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
CEO: Very good, make good use of the Challenger while we have them.
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
OPS: Any more about the pirate attackers or something to bring up?
CEO_LtJG_McQuade says:
::Nods then goes back to the padd.::
OPS_Cdt_Inaji says:
::checks her padd:: XO: Sir, the Valiant reports they will arrive in two hours from Deep Space 17. They are a Defiant class vessel.
CMO_Cmd_Knight-Sky says:
:: Having watched and listened to the engineer, she writes down a few things on her padd and closes his file.::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::glances down at the PADD in his hand for a moment, then turns his attention back to the meeting::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
OPS: Very good.
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
CMO: Other then the obvious which we'll discuss later, anything else from Medical?
CMO_Cmd_Knight-Sky says:
XO: All things related to the Heath have been completed. Medical stands quiet beyond normal routine.
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
CNS: And other then everyone being mentally beat up by Sannia, everyone in good shape?
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
XO: We're all in good shape, sir. No-one any crazier than usual.
OPS_Cdt_Inaji says:
::grins at the CNSs comment::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
CO: And that should be it. We'll be back under the Admiral's thumb in no time.

ACTION:
The display behind the CO flashes, indicating that the probe data has arrived.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO: Nicely done Conor. ::turns to look behind him:: Well, looks like we have some information coming in.
Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO: Work with OPS and see what information you can disseminate from the probe.
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
::nods at the CO::
Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
All: Anyone else have anything for the Commander?
OPS_Cdt_Inaji says:
::shakes her head::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
CO: None from me.
Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
All: You're dismissed. Let's see what repairs can get done before the Valiant arrives.
CMO_Cmd_Knight-Sky says:
:: Remains in her seat as others leave.::
CEO_LtJG_McQuade says:
::Raises his hand.:: CO: Are we not going to look at the data coming in?
OPS_Cdt_Inaji says:
::stands and pauses as the CEO adds his question::
Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CEO: Once the XO and OPS get the specific information, yes.
Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO/OPS: Think you'd be able to go over the information while we're all here?
OPS_Cdt_Inaji says:
::looks to the XO, and taps her padd to bring the info up on the conference viewer::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
::starts reading over the data::

ACTION:
The probe's data is displayed on the overhead screen in various way. A diagram displays a Sol-like sun, with three orbiting planets.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
OPS: Cadet, what can you tell us about this?
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
::starts bringing up a summary on each planet::

ACTION:
Another screen displays data on the contents of the system. No ships, but numerous ion trails indicate small vessel have been active within the system. Trajectory indicates vessels from and to the Heathercrist system. Another screen flashes to life with the data the XO requests on each planet. Each planet contains only bacterial life, with average temperatures under 200 K. A fourth screen displays information on background radiation through the system.

OPS_Cdt_Inaji says:
::starts slowly:: CO: Well... it looks like a diagram... erm... a Sun with three orbiting planets. Over here, looks like there are several ion trails linked to the Heathercrist system.
OPS_Cdt_Inaji says:
CO: Each planet has only bacterial life, no more.
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
All: The ion trails match previous honour bearer ships we've run into before. Ion trails show they seem to do a lap around the sun before taking off again. The planets look cold and don't contain much more then bacterial life.
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
All: Although they all seem to have a similar path when you dig into it. It looks like they follow a certain orbit around the sun which has no planet on it.
