AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
:: wandering the ship her hands folded behind her back, deep in contemplation ::
EO_Ensign_Duke says:
::wipes sweat from his brow as he carefully replaces all the power conduits in Engineering::
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::In her quarters cleaning up the mess left from the battles.  Kneels down and picks up a Klingon bat'leth, holds it up to the light to check for damage to the edge::
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
:: Enters engineering with a list of repairs in order of priority.::
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
:: nods to a couple of passing Chicago techs  as they come to atttention as she passes ::
EO_Ensign_Duke says:
::aligns the last conduit and twists it in to position, smiling to himself as it glows and the panel reads all green::
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
:: Reaching up, pushes her bangs off her face streaked with dirt and looks around for anyone to pass this on to.::
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Seeing no damage, wipes it with the sleeve of her uniform, hangs it back on it's mounting bracket on the wall then stands back to admire the shine::
EO_Ensign_Duke says:
::gets off his aching knees and stands, stretching his back with a groan and noticing the figure approaching through the corner of his eye:: CSO: Lieutenant Senn?
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
:: the ship feels cold with all these strangers aboard ::
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Straightens out the various swords and bladed weapons on their wall mounts until the display is perfectly aligned::
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
:: Smiles wearily::  EO:  I have a list of repairs in order of priority once you guys have the most critical things up and running.  I could give it to the Chicago crew if you would rather.  But there are some things I would only trust with our engineers, medical and science being them.
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Walks to the opposite wall then turns and admires the display of weapons, both recent and antique.  Smiles proudly::
EO_Ensign_Duke says:
::takes the padd and returns the smile, not quite meeting her eyes:: CSO: Yes ma'am. They'll be the next priority after the drive system is on its feet. We've already gotten the tactical and navigational sensors back up. They were shielded.
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Sighs as she looks around the room at the rest of the mess::
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
:: Nods a bit absently.::  EO:  That is good... I just wish... ::Sighs, unable to forget that 12 were dead do to her idea.::
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Walks over to a small end table at the side of the sofa and begins picking up the remains of a broken glass planter and the half-dead plant::
EO_Ensign_Duke says:
::kind of understands what's flashing behind her eyes:: CSO: We did the best we could, ma'am. It could've been worse. ::reaches out and places a comforting hand on hers:: And all the memories weren't bad, were they?
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
:: keeps walking slowly taking note of various repairs, notices a Chicago Officer staring at her ::
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
:: Thinks of all that had occured, not really noting his touch and cannot think of anything... at least not related to her.::  EO:  True I guess.  After all, we still have a ship and universe to return to.
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
:: give him a very stern look attempting to look imposing, but all she sees is a mocking look of amusement in his eyes ::
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Inspects the plant carefully as she talks to it:: Plant: You don't look too far gone...I think I can revive you.  ::Takes the plant and sets it gently on the table::
SMDave is now known as Adm_Konerko.
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
Plant: Maybe Lieutenant Eris has something in the lab to help you.  ::Dumps the broken glass pot into the recycle receptical::
EO_Ensign_Duke says:
::smiles tiredly:: CSO: Good way of looking at it. ::lets her hand go:: I'll get on these right away. ::hesitates:: And maybe if you're not doing anything after this is all sorted out, maybe we can pick up where we left off?
Adm_Konerko says:
@::in his quarters aboard the Chicago going over reports from his repair teams.  Sees a 3D image of the Claymore's most damaged areas and just shakes his head::
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Taps her COM badge:: *CSO*: Ryan to Lieutenant Eris.
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
:: Takes a moment trying to work that out... then a smile slips over her face.::  EO:  Let off?  That would be nice....
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
EO:  One moment please...
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
:: Moves far enough away he cannot hear; hoping he did not catch that slip.::  *CTO*:  Yes ma'am?
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
*CSO*: Do you have anything in the lab to help revive a half-dead houseplant?
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
:: tosses her mane over her shoulder and turns her back hating the looks  she gets from strangers ::
EO_Ensign_Duke says:
::fiddles with the edge of the padd, trying to work up his nerve::
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
*CTO*:  That depends on why it is half dead, but I am sure I can do something.
Adm_Konerko says:
@::gets an incoming message from Starfleet Command.::
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
*CSO*: Damaged during the recent battles, I'm afraid...I am going to repot it but I thought maybe you had something I could add to the soil to help it along.
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
*CTO*: If you will drop it off at hydroponics, I believe we might find something.  I will bring it to you later.
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
*CSO*: Will do.  Thank you very much, Lieutenant.  Ryan, out.
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
:: Nods and heads back to the engineer.::
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
:: keeps walking with her PADD in her hand, checking on teams repairing the Claymore she wants it done right ::
EO_Ensign_Duke says:
::steps away from Senn to confer with one of the engineers from the Chicago, getting an update to the nacelle coil testing system repair before giving him the next job in line to get the ship moving::
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
:: Waits patiently for the Engineer to finish, wondering how she was going to get around not knowing his name.::
Adm_Konerko says:
@::after receiving and reading the messgage, he decides to contact Claymore directly::
EO_Ensign_Duke says:
::nods fianlly to the Chicago engineer before dispatching him and turning back to Senn, bumping in to her when he doesnt' expect her to be right behind him:: CSO: Oooh, sorry. ::laughs::
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Walks to the replicator:: Computer: Computer, one eight inch clear glass pot filled with sterile potting soil augmented with point o five percent vermiculite.
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
:: Puts her hands up to catch herself.::  EO:  My apologize for being so close.
EO_Ensign_Duke says:
::grins like a schoolboy:: CSO: That's ok. I don't mind.
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
EO:  You were saying earlier?
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
:: enters the auxillary bridge looking around for any faces she knows ::
Adm_Konerko says:
COM:Claymore, this is Admiral Konerko of the Chicago.  Please respond.
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
COM: ADM: Claymor-re, her-re, Sir-r.
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Watches as the glass planter appears on the receiving tray, filled with the soil as ordered.  Picks up the pot and places it atop the table::
EO_Ensign_Duke says:
CSO: Well... ::feels nervous again:: Well after this is all done with, I was thinking I could try to get the holodecks back online. I mean it's going to be a long trip back to base, and we'll probably be on reduced duty, and... you know?
Adm_Konerko says:
COM:Claymore: To whom am I speaking?
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
COM:ADM: This is Commander-r Chaser-r, acting Executive officer-r of the Claymor-re, SIR-R.
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
:: Smiles::  EO:  Yes... but saddly, the holodecks are not a priority at the moment.  But maybe we could meet later for a drink?  :: Thinks how she can get her twin to be there or if she should meet him herself.::
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Digs her hand into the soil, making a nice hole for the plant then picks up the plant and gently places it into the pot, being careful not to damage what is left of the roots::
Adm_Konerko says:
COM:AXO: I see.  Where is your CO?
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
COM: ADM: Sir-r, wounded in the battle and in sickbay.
EO_Ensign_Duke says:
::nods enthusiastically:: CSO: Sure, that's a good idea. I'm pretty sure we didn't break all the glasses.
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Gently tamps the soil around the base of the plant::
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
EO:  I will meet you later alright?  I need to get back to sickbay.
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Walks back to the replicator:: Computer: Computer, four ounces of room temperature water.
EO_Ensign_Duke says:
CSO: Sure thing. ::smiles again:: Uh, see you later. ::turns away to continue repairs, sparing one quick look back::
Adm_Konerko says:
COM:AXO: I see.  Please gather your senior staff in the best suited area.  I'll be beaming over shortly.
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Watches as the glass of water appears on the receiving tray.  Grips the glass and takes it over to the table, begins adding water to the soil while turning the pot with her other hand::
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
:: gulps and ties to keep her voice calm :: COM:ADM: Aye, Sir-r, Claymor-re out.
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
:: With a wink, immitating her sister, she turns and leaves with a slight sashé, heading of sickbay.  Her thoughts lighter, she decides how best she would like to handle this.  For a moment the recent events are forgotten in favor of times in her youth before the twins had been parted by Him.::
EO_Ensign_Duke says:
::avoids the non-working elevator and climbs up the ladder to the upper levels of Engineering to check the plasma junctions::
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Puts the glass down and picks up the potted plant:: Plant: Well, off we go to the hydroponics lab.  ::Walks out of her quarters holding the plant headed for the turbolift::
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
*SHIPWIDE*:  All senior-r staff to the Auxillar-ry b-rridge on the double, Admir-ral Koner-rko is inbound.
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
:: Looks up with a frown.::  *aXO*:  Commander, this is Lieutenant Eris.  I am on my way, but Lieutant Eos is in the middle of surgery.
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Steps into the turbolift:: TL: Hyrdropon.... ::Hears the COM from the AXO::...uh... auxilliary bridge.
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
*CSO*: Acknowledged, Chaser-r out.
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
:: Steps onto the nearest turbolift.::  Computer, auxilary bridge.
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
Self: Admiral Konerko...hmm...never heard of him.  What does he want with the Claymore?  ::Steps out of the turbolift onto the auxilliary bridge, still holding her potted plant:: AXO: What's going on?
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
:: sits center chair knowing this was all her command that ended the fledgling universe ::
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
:: As the lift deposits her near the auxilary bridge, she enters the room with a quick glance around.::

ACTION: The Admiral beams over to the Claymore, materializing in the middle of transporter room three.

EO_Ensign_Duke says:
::crawls out on a catwalk to help a pair of techs reconnect the replacement couplings;:
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
*CTO*: The admir-ral ask r-requested a staff meeting, repor-rt on the double.
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
aXO:  Did he give a reason?
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
:: shakes her head :: CSO: No.  :: wrings her hands nervously ::
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
AXO: What does he want?  ::Cradles her potted plant in her left arm::
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
CTO: I have no idea.
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Mumbles:: I have a sick plant here... ::walks over to the tactical station and sets the plant on the console::
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
:: Nods and makes her eay to a seat to curiosly await his arrival.::
Adm_Konerko says:
::sees all the junk and debris in the otherwise unoccupied transporter room.  Decides to head for the door.::
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
CTO: Have a secur-rity team meet the Admir-ral.
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
AXO: Aye, Commander.  ::Taps the console ordering a security team to escort the Admiral::
EO_Ensign_Duke says:
::with a final grunt, locks the couplings in place and pats the engineers on the back before serpentining his way back off the catwalk::
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
:: Seeing the plant, stands back up and walks over to Ryan.::  CTO:  Is this the plant in question?
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Pinches off a dead leaf from the plant.  Tosses the dead leaf under the tactical console then turns to the CSO while shoving the leaf further under the console with her foot:: CSO: Yes, Lieutenant.  As you can see it's not in very good shape.
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
:: drums her finger on the armrests of the command chair waiting in dread ::
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
:: Nods::  CTO:  I will take it now and give it a once over while we are waiting.  It could probably use some TLC down in hdyroponics though.
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Nods to the CSO:: CSO: Anything you can do will be appreciated, Lieutenant.  ::Smiles yet is worried::
Adm_Konerko says:
::moving through the corridors observing his fine crew::
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
:: Gives a simple smile and taking the plant, heads back to her station to wait, at the same time giving the plant a once over.::
Host Adm_Konerko says:
::makes his way onto deck three figuring the TIC would be the most logical place for the senior staff to be::
EO_Ensign_Duke says:
::gathers up a small makeshift repair team made up of Claymore and Chicago personnel, heading out of engineering to tackle the next problem::
Security Team Leader says:
Admiral Konerko: Sir, you must have been on an Akira before.  You know exactly where to go.  ::Smiles::
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
:: Lightly touches the various leaves, looking the plant over, getting a general feel for it.::
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
:: feels sick to her stomach ::
Adm_Konerko says:
STL: I have.  ::Sees the TIC just down the corridor:: Thanks for the escort, though.
Security Team Leader says:
 ::Nods:: Admiral Konerko: Our pleasure, Sir.  ::Walks with the Admiral until he reaches the doors to the TIC::
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
:: Notes it is mostly 'bruised' and a little bit of extra care should be fine for it.  Perhaps some extra vitamins.::
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
:: stands nervously to her feet ::
Adm_Konerko says:
::walks through the TIC doors, which actually work::
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
ALL: ADMIR-RAL ON DECK!
Adm_Konerko says:
::nods to the Claymore's crew already there::
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
:: comes to attention ::
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Sees the Admiral walk through the door and stands quickly coming to attention::
Adm_Konerko says:
All: At ease.
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
:: stands uneasily beside her chair ::
Adm_Konerko says:
::pulls a PADD from seemingly nowhere::
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Relaxes her stance and watches the Admiral::
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
:: holds her breath ::
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
:: Having never left her chair, stays put to listen.::
Adm_Konerko says:
All: Since your CO is indisposed, and I happen to be the ranking officer on location, I have the pleasure of congratulating Claymore's crew on a job well done.
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Casually looks down to make sure that dead leaf is out of site::
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
:: Does not respond as it will be history that writes the story and it will not include the dead.::
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
:: nods to the crew ::
Adm_Konerko says:
All: Starfleet and the Federation council are very proud of the work you all of done here.
Adm_Konerko says:
All: Obviously, this was a high-profile mission.
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
:: starts to relax a little ::
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Listens quietly::
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
:: Slumps in her chair a moment, that was not good for her or Eos.::
Adm_Konerko says:
All: Now, Since you all have been out of contact for a while I have some old orders to pass out.
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Thinks: OLD orders?::
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
:: wonders what the admiral has orders wise ::
Host Adm_Konerko says:
All:  Lt Commander Ryan, please step forward.
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Hesitates before realizing he just called her name.  Steps forward:: Admiral: Sir.
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
:: looks at Ryan ::
Adm_Konerko says:
Ryan: As a representative of Starfleet, I am proud to honor you with the Starfleet Silver Lifesaving Medal.
Adm_Konerko says:
::looks at the PADD:: Ryan: This is for your efforts in rescuing at least five crewmen on your last mission.
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Eyes widen:: Admiral: Thank you, Sir!
Adm_Konerko says:
Ryan: Wait...there's more.  ::squints at the PADD::
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Thinks: More?:: Admiral: More, Sir?
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
:: Listens, smiles for Ryan.::
Adm_Konerko says:
Ryan: Furthermore, you are hereby prmoted to the rank of Commander with all the rights, privliges, and paperwork that go along with it.
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
Admiral: Thank you, again, Sir!
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
:: claps for Ryan :: CTO: Congratuations.
Host Adm_Konerko says:
Ryan: Congratulations, Commander!
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
CTO:  Congratulations Commander.
Adm_Konerko says:
::pulls a small box from the same nowhere the PADD came from and hands it to Ryan::
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Takes the pip:: Admiral/All: Thank you.
CTO_LtCmdr_Ryan is now known as CTO_Cmdr_Ryan.
Adm_Konerko says:
ALL:  ::looks around the room:: Again, Starfleet congratulates the entire Claymore crew for a job very well done.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
::Looks down to see the dead leaf stuck to her boot heel and tries to scuff it off without the Admiral seeing it::
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
ADM: Thank you, sir-r.
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
:: Simply nods.::
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
Admiral: Thank you, again, Sir.
Adm_Konerko says:
All: Now, I will be conducting random inspections all over the ship just to keep my crew on thier toes.  Don't worry about me. As soon as Claymore is able, you'll get underway.
CSO_Lt_Senn_Eris says:
:: Rolls eyes at that random inspection.::
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
ADM: Aye, Admir-ral.  Would you like company?
AXO_Cmdr_Chaser says:
:: can't believe she actually just said that to the admiral ::
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
Admiral: Your security team will escort you where ever you wish to go, Sir.  They are waiting outside the door.
Adm_Konerko says:
AXO: Possibly, Commander.  We'll see what my schedule allows for.
Adm_Konerko says:
All: That's all for now.  Dismissed!
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
::Returns to the tactical station::
Adm_Konerko says:
::nods to the CTO::
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
::Reaches down and pulls the dead leaf off her boot heel::
