SD 10305.06 Season Four Episode Forty-five (Mission #135) A Bright Star...Part 1

In the vast quiet and darkness of the world there is a glimmer...

A glimmer of hope for the weary traveler...
A glimmer that meant warmth and comfort...
A glimmer that meant home was near...
A glimmer that guided the Captain's of old...

In the vast quiet and darkness of space there is a glimmer...

A glimmer of hope for those traveling far...
A glimmer that meant others were near...
A glimmer that meant home for some...
A glimmer that guided the Captain seeking security for his crew...

Like the twinkling of a thousand stars at once the lights began to flicker and grow bright. Level by level until the entire area was lit.  Home was just ahead...a bright star in the middle of the dark and quiet vastness of space...

Starbase 421A.

::sits back and watches on the viewscreen as it fills up with the interior of the docking structure::

XO_LtCmdr_Irvin says:
::looking at the viewer::  Adm: Dear God...  Are we the only ones here?

Host Adm_Brooks says:
CO: I did want to discuss one thing with you. We don't have all the crew on the base yet so I would like for your crew to assist those that are here until the rest of the crew arrives.

EO_Ens_Mo`Bri says:
::watches the view screen:: Self: Man this is big and empty.

Host Adm_Brooks says:
XO: For the most part yes Commander. The first of the marine's have arrived but that is about it.

CTO_LtCmdr_Farris says:
::Looks at the screen:: Self: Wow, a whole lot of nothing here.

EO_Ens_Mo`Bri says:
Beta Shift:  Run full diagnostics on all ships systems and have them on the CEO's desk by 09:00 Tomorrow.

Host Adm_Brooks says:
::exits the Claymore and finds a TL to take her up to the new office area::

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
XO:  I would like all DH and junior officers to head to the Starbase.  The quicker we can get things done, the quicker we can relax.

EO_Ens_Mo`Bri says:
<Beta Shift > EO: Aye ma'am.

CTO_LtCmdr_Farris says:
::Moves to the TL and waits for other folks to join::

XO_LtCmdr_Irvin says:
CO: Fair enough....   I'd like to keep a small shakedown team here from engineering with your permission.

CEO_LtJG_Gagne says:
EO:  I'm going to take a walk.

::Hears the Red Alert::  XO:  Not this time Mr. Irvin.

CTO_LtCmdr_Farris says:
::Getting slightly annoyed:: Self: I guess this is what happens when SB engineers have control of stuff for a long time.

FCO_LtJG_Theron says:
CTO: Should I get back to the Claymore and have her ready to undock?

EO_Ens_Mo`Bri says:
::entering engineering she immediately begins to trace the power problem::

CSO_LtJG_Taylor says:
:: hears the red alert and looks at the Cmdr.::

CIV_Col_K`tarn says:
::releases the meeting with Lt Theron is going to have to wait::

XO_LtCmdr_Irvin says:
*CEO* Irvin to Gagne...   I need an external scan of the station from the ship.   See if you see anything abnormal, then an area short range scan.  The station just went to Red Alert.

CTO_LtCmdr_Farris says:
FCO: I'm not sure, but this isn't looking good. ::Moves over to the auxiliary tactical screen:: Nashon: Do you need the Claymore to defend the station?

Host ADM_Brooks says:
<SO Winters> Nashon: Check again I get nothing on the sensors.

CEO_LtJG_Gagne says:
::Slides into ME:: *XO*: Working on it. ::Slides over to his panel:: EO: I need sensors up.

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:

XO_LtCmdr_Irvin says:
::follows the CO and Admiral and sighs:: *CEO* Stand down yellow alert....   False Alarm

CTO_LtCmdr_Farris says:
FCO: The sensor diagnostics should be done in a couple minutes... Maybe it'll tell us what's wrong.

CEO_LtJG_Gagne says:
*XO*: Aye, sir.  You want a team to look over the Starbase Systems, sir... It might help with the bugs..

FCO_LtJG_Theron says:
CTO: Let me know if you want me to go down to the array to check it out.

Host Adm_Brooks says:
::walks into her office and motions everyone to have a seat::

CEO_LtJG_Gagne says:
<de-bug the bugs>

CTO_LtCmdr_Farris says:
FCO: I doubt that that will be necessary, but thanks for volunteering.

XO_LtCmdr_Irvin says:
*CEO* Yes....  That would be most appreciated.  Irvin out.

FCO_LtJG_Theron says:
*CIV* : I am in Operations going over the SB's shuttle data, I can meet you now if you like.

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
::sits down::

XO_LtCmdr_Irvin says:
::sits::

CIV_Col_K`tarn says:
*FCO*: That would be fine, I am in Regimental Head quarters for the 1MMER on the station

Host Adm_Brooks says:
::sits down looking at them both:: CO/XO: It seems this was a quick job to get her ready and we have a few bugs in the systems according to the reports I have been going over.

CEO_LtJG_Gagne says:
*XO*: Yes, sir.  EO: Prep a team to head over to the Starbase for de-bugging

EO_Ens_Mo`Bri says:
CEO: Sir, I think that the stations main computer core has a few kinks in it that might be passed on to us.

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
::nods and looks at the XO and back to the admiral::

XO_LtCmdr_Irvin says:
Adm: That much is expected with any new installation Ma'am.  Lt Gagne is forming a shakedown team to come over and assist.

EO_Ens_Mo`Bri says:
CEO: The team is ready but sir we can't take chances with the gliches and bugs migrating to our ship.  I think caution is in order.

CTO_LtCmdr_Farris says:
::Continues waiting for the diagnostic to finish::

CEO_LtJG_Gagne says:
EO: Passed onto us? ::Slides his chair over to the other panel::  EO: I want a complete systems diagnostic

Host Adm_Brooks says:
XO: That is going to be most appreciated. The rest of the base crew is due here in two days time.

CIV_Col_K`tarn says:
::reviews the orders submit to bring in the next four platoons of the regiment::

EO_Ens_Mo`Bri says:
CEO: Aye sir. Do you want a level 1 diagnostic across the boards or a level 3?

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
ADM:  I will have my crew work hard to keep the Starbase in working order until then Admiral.

XO_LtCmdr_Irvin says:
Self:  Tuesday.....   ::stifles a snicker::

FCO_LtJG_Theron says:
*CIV* : On my way.  ::stands up and heads for the TL:: Estes: Sir all data and records seem complete for now, our Colonel needs to speak with me, I'll go back over the data later.

Host Adm_Brooks says:
<Estes> ::nods::

FCO_LtJG_Theron says:
CTO: I'm going to meet with Colonel K'tarn, If you need me I will be in the Regimental Head Quarters if you need me sir.

CTO_LtCmdr_Farris says:
FCO: Understood. See ya when you get back.

CEO_LtJG_Gagne says:
EO: We gotta play it safe.  Let's do a level 1 across the board.

CSO_LtJG_Taylor says:
:: digs into a panel, finding some chips misaligned::

Host Adm_Brooks says:
CO/XO: This is a whole new ballgame so to say. We are the first station to be put this far down.

CSO_LtJG_Taylor says:
De'Onna: Cmdr. I have found that this panel have misaligned chips.

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
ADM:  What do we know about this area of space ma'am?

CSO_LtJG_Taylor says:
<have=has>

EO_Ens_Mo`Bri says:
CEO: Aye sir level 1 across the boards.

CTO_LtCmdr_Farris says:
SBCTO: Diagnostics show some short in your sensors and half the chips from the sensor controls are missing.

FCO_LtJG_Theron says:
::boards the TL:: SB Computer: Regimental Headquarters.  ::lift moves::

Host Adm_Brooks says:
CO: Not a whole lot actually. We know the Gorn are off to one side and the Delta Triangle to another. That and we are within a few light years of Klingon Space.

XO_LtCmdr_Irvin says:
::listens intently as he is still in learning mode::

CIV_Col_K`tarn says:
::signs on the requisition and puts the pad down::

EO_Ens_Mo`Bri says:
::hands begin to do the level 1 diagnostic herself::  Self: I am not going to let anything happen to my lady.  Every circuit and every relay and every system will be double checked and checked again.

CSO_LtJG_Taylor says:
<De'Onna> Taylor: Interesting, let me take a closer look.

CTO_LtCmdr_Farris says:
::Moves over to the science console and pops it open, seeing the missing chips:: Self: Stupid SB engineers...

XO_LtCmdr_Irvin says:
Adm: Strange bed fellows indeed.... 

Host Adm_Brooks says:
::chuckles:: XO: That is one way of putting it. We seem to have been given a whole new area to explore and learn about.

CEO_LtJG_Gagne says:
EO: I'll be on the Starbase, I'll see if I can track down a problem there.

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
ADM:  Interesting.  Sounds like fun Admiral.

XO_LtCmdr_Irvin says:
::smiles::

CEO_LtJG_Gagne says:
::Grabs a kit, and points to two engineers, and heads for the Starbase::

CSO_LtJG_Taylor says:
:: De'Onna takes a closer look at the chips, and shakes his head::

Host Adm_Brooks says:
::chuckles:: CO: Yes I think it might be. I know they are going to be putting in a science outpost somewhere near here...it will work in tandem with our own science facilities here at the base.

EO_Ens_Mo`Bri says:
CEO: Aye sir.

CSO_LtJG_Taylor says:
<De'Onna>  Taylor: Great, just great, seems people like to play with the panel's chips.

EO_Ens_Mo`Bri says:
::continues with her diagnostic::

XO_LtCmdr_Irvin says:
Adm: A science outpost?   We aren't going to get stuck patrolling that thing are we?

CSO_LtJG_Taylor says:
De'Onna: I'd say sir.

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
ADM:  That will help with the Science aspect.  I would like to have my CSO serve as a liason between them once it is set up.

CTO_LtCmdr_Farris says:
*CEO*: When you get a chance, could you please come to SB operations? Their science console seems to have some problems... Most of the chips weren't installed.

Host Adm_Brooks says:
::pushes a button bringing up a large display map on the wall:: CO/XO: Outside of that we have this entire area to look around.

Host ADM_Brooks says:
XO: No there are ships coming that will handle the patrols.

XO_LtCmdr_Irvin says:
::nods::

XO_LtCmdr_Irvin says:
::looks at the map display::

Host Adm_Brooks says:
XO: Rather impressive wouldn't you say?

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
ADM:  That’s a lot of gray area...

FCO_LtJG_Theron says:
::arrives on the deck and looks for K'tarn::

CEO_LtJG_Gagne says:
*CTO*: On my way to the Starbase, Commander.  Please stand by.

XO_LtCmdr_Irvin says:
Adm: Yes....  Quite!  

Host Adm_Brooks says:
CO: Yes a lot of gray area that we can learn about.

CTO_LtCmdr_Farris says:
*CEO*: Understood.

CSO_LtJG_Taylor says:
:: De'Onna looks at Taylor and sighs:: De'Onna: I'll see if i can fix it.

EO_Ens_Mo`Bri says:
::thinking of poor Squiggy in his cage she continues her work::

XO_LtCmdr_Irvin says:
::trying for a little humor::  CO: Looks like black area with some white specs to me.
