Patrolling the Frontier - Mission 26 - 11003.09
Host SMDrew says:
Summary:  Stardate 11003.09 1530 hours.  The Claymore drifts quietly high above the Lothian world, while the inside of her hull is alive with activity as crews make ready for departure.  The senior officers have one final trip down to the Lothian surface before the Claymore returns to her patrol route.

*CSO*:  Eris, this is Isaac, how is your leg healing?...I'd like to beam down with you when you're ready, if you don't mind that is
Host Admiral_Cosgrave says:
ACTION:  The USS Overton drops from warp just inside the Thro Tal System.  Claymore sensors pick up the Galaxy-class flagship.
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::In her quarters in front of the mirror, as she straightens her dress uniform.  Turns as she hears the incoming comm.::  *OPS_Ens_Kendle*: Put it through Ensign.  ::walks over to the console on her desk.::

MO_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::In her quarters, adjusting the collar of her dress uniform...gotten a little loose again. She'll need to run it by a tailor at her next chance...but it will work for now.  She glances out the window just in time to see the Overton as it drops into view. She smiles softly at the sight::
CAG_FO_Williams says:

Host Admiral_Cosgrave says:
COM: USS Claymore:  Captain T'Shara, I see all is well once again here in the Thro Tal System.  I've come to oversee a few matters here in the system now that the Claymore is set to return to her patrol.
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
::Isaac stops in mid-stride::  *CSO*:  Yes?

Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
COM: USS Overton:  Indeed, Admiral.  It is good to see you sir.  There is a matter I would like to discuss with you as well while you are here if you have the time.
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
*CEO*:  How mandatory was this, chief?
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
*CSO*:  Hmmm, about as mandatory as things come, I would think, Captain's orders
Host Admiral_Cosgrave says:
COM:  USS Claymore:  Of course, Captain, we can discuss it planetside.  We should be in orbit in a few moments.  Overton out.
CAG_FO_Williams says:
::raises an eyebrow idly, giving the PADD another airwards toss, catching it, and shrugging:: Kell: In some way or another, I imagine I've... pissed several people off. It happens. ::another, indifferent shrug:: And before I die, it will likely happen again.
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
*CEO*:  How long is a brig stay for ignoring such order?
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
*CSO*: ::chuckles:: probably 30 days, bread and water rations 
Host Admiral_Cosgrave says:
ACTION:  The USS Overton moves into standard orbit around Lothian Prime.
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::With a nod and before she can reply the comm is cut and the screen goes black.  Straightening up she looks out the window of her quarters to see the Overton come into view.  With a smile she turns and exits the room and heads for the transporter room.  Behind her the lights go dark::

@Cosgrave:  By all means.  ::Moves back around and has a seat in his chair::  Please, have a seat.

O'Reily:  Hey I'm late, got to get to the Transporter, keep that thought ::turns and hurriedly exits the Hangar Bay and heads for TR 2::
Host Admiral_Cosgrave says:
@PM:  While it would be easy to pass along the leadership role back to the Lothian's...  ::Pauses and takes a seat across from Welland.::  I'm asking as a favor to not only the Lothians, but to the Federation, that you remain Prime Minister until our fundamental principles are well imbedded into the Lothian Legacy inside your head.
Host Admiral_Cosgrave says:
@PM:  I know it's asking a great deal.  ::Passes along a PADD across the desk.::
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
@::Sits back in his chair::  Cosgrave:  That is...not quite what I was expecting you to say.  ::Accepts the PADD::
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
@::Notices Raeyld's fists.::  MO: Are you all right?  You seem to be a little... what is the word ...tense...
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
::Arrives at TR 2::  CSO:  Eris!  ::grabs her arm and escorts her to the transportrer pad::  are you ready?
Host Admiral_Cosgrave says:
@PM:  But you have the Federation's full support on the matter.  ::Looks at the PADD.::  It's all there on the PADD.  It means leaving the Claymore until such time you think the Government can be passed on to a successor.
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
:: chuckles as he hustles her onto the pad::  CEO:  Hey, chief.  I promise I won't escape... at least not for the first ten minutes.  After that, I make no promise.
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
CSO:  ::grins::  Fair enough
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
Transporter Chief:  Two to beam down Chief
MO_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
@CO: There's been...a lot at stake lately.     And you're right, a lot has--is changing.  ::Tilts her head:: But...we always adapt.

Host Admiral_Cosgrave says:
@::Stands.::  PM:  I will be ordering the Claymore back to its patrol after the ceremony.  ::Moves to the door.::  I know it's not a lot of time to think about it.
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
:: As the TC nods and activates the console, she takes a deep breath, tensing::
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
@MO: Aye, but that doesn't mean it is always easy to adapt.
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
@::Stands also::
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
@::Simply::  Cosgrave:  I accept.
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
<TS_PO2_Fellgar> ::gulps slightly, double checks the beam down site, than presses the button:: CSO/CEO: Energizing.

@::materializes and steps naturally away from the beam down site::
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
@::Notices Fong::  OPS: Ensign.
Host Admiral_Cosgrave says:
@::Opens the door.::  PM:  Shall we join the party?  ::Smiles and nods.::  I hope that rubs off to the next Prime Minister.
MO_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
@::Turns slightly, taking in the view of Fong, and nods a bit in acknowledgement:: CO: Aye, Captain...It's not.      OPS: Ensign.
Host Admiral_Cosgrave says:
ACTION:  As the last of the Marines and Claymore Senior Officers materialize the @ sign vanishes.
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
@::snaps a salute to the captain than catches the sight of the MO and pales slightly::
Host Admiral_Cosgrave says:
::Waits for Welland at the door.::
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
::Smiles::  Cosgrave:  Hm, well.  I had planned for both contingencies -- but fortunately, I didn't have to fall back on the "trying to convince the admiral to let me stay" plan.  ::Moves toward the door and holds it::  After you.
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
:: As the beam releases them, she looks around.  It did not look much different from when she had left.::
MO_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::Her color fluctuates as well, but she nods once more then looks back to T'Shara:: CO: Where to, Captain?
Host Admiral_Cosgrave says:
PM:  Maybe later we can hear that one over drinks.  ::Smiles and walks out into the corridor.::
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Watches as Senn and Hull materializes near the others::  CEO/CSO: Commander, Lieutenant.
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
::Follows Cosgrave, chuckling::  Cosgrave:  I think I'll save it.  Never know when it might come in handy.
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
::takes another step back, maneuvering the CSO and CEO between himself and the Captain::

Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
CMO: Prime Minister.  ::Bows at Welland as he enters::
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
Admiral:  Admiral Cosgrave, good to see you Sir!  How is the Overton?  Sorry about the state we left her in last we had her!
Host Admiral_Cosgrave says:
ACTION:  The Lothian Senators begin to fill the upper level of the room.
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
::Returns the bow to T'Shara::  CO:  Captain.
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Her glance turns to the upper level as she hears movement above.  Then she looks back at the others::
Host Admiral_Cosgrave says:
CEO:  Commander Hull.  The Overton is quite well.  In fact, she managed to make it this far.  ::Smiles.::  We only had to call a tow once.  ::Extends a hand.::  CO:  Captain T'Shara.  Always a pleasure.
MO_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::Allows herself to drift toward the back of the group as more join the group::
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
:: A glance at Marcus' face had hers remaining still along with the rest of her body language.  She simply stood quietly wondering how long before she could escape.::
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Extends her hand and shakes Admiral Cosgrave's hand::  Admiral: Admiral.  Indeed always good to see you sir.
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
@Admiral:  ::Shakes the Admiral's hand::  Aye Sir, an honor
Host Admiral_Cosgrave says:
::Smiles again.::  All:  Now that formalities are done lets get this started.  ::Moves to the center of the room and begins to turn the Lothian stone.::
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Stands a little to the side::
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
::Folds his hands behind his back, at a relaxed parade rest::
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Folds her hands behind her back and listens for the time being.::
Host Admiral_Cosgrave says:
Outloud:  Starfleet Officers, Marine Detachment A, Watchdog Company.  Attention!  ::Waits for everyone to snap too.::
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
::decides that parade rest would probably be best, than changes his mind, and snaps to attention at the admiral's orders::
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Stands at attention::
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
::Drops his hold on Eris' arm, stands to attention::
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
:: Stands straight, her eyes unseeing as she simply listens::
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
::Conspicuously not at attention, still facing the group from the other side of the room::
Host Admiral_Cosgrave says:
::Keeps the stone moving while he speaks to the room.::  All:  We stand in this grand building today by the sheer spirit and determination of a crew of Starfleet Officers and Marines.  If it were not for their efforts, this planet and her people would be no more.
Host Admiral_Cosgrave says:
All:  On the request by Prime Minister Welland and the Lothian Senate, and by order of Starfleet Command, I hereby present each one of you the Legion of Honor for restoring the Lothian Government under extreme combat conditions.
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Still at attention she looks around at her crew.::
Host Admiral_Cosgrave says:

Host Admiral_Cosgrave says:
::Begins to clap for the crew.::
Host Admiral_Cosgrave says:
ACTION:  The entire Lothian Senate stands and begins to clap.
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
::looks down at the silver box, takes it gingerly, and looks completely confused wondering what it was that he did to deserve...well anything::
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
:: takes the box unquestioningly and slips it into her bag::
MO_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::Blinks back a little, only now become truly aware of the massive audience they're subject to, as she holds the box within her hands::
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Nods to Hull.  Takes the silver box and holds it in her hand::
Host Admiral_Cosgrave says:
All:  I now pass the floor to Captain T'Shara.  ::Stops the stone and moves to the side.::
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Nods to the Admiral as she walks up to the stone::  Admiral: Thank you, Admiral.  ::turns the Lothian stone as she begins to speak::  All: Would Lieutenant Senn and Ensign Fong please come forward.

Host Admiral_Cosgrave says:
ACTION:  The Lothian Senate take their seats as T'Shara speaks.
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
::looks at Senn then looks around, his heart beating quite a bit faster than normal as he steps forward still showing obvious confusion::
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
:: She simply looked at Isaac, her eyes blank before looking away::
MO_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::Finally smiles softly::

CSO_Lt_Senn says:
:: Understanding, she simply stands near Fong::
MO_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::Shifts slightly, to fill in any gaps in the line behind Fong::
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
::wide eyed manages to get a hold of a pip, not really sure if it is the whole one or the hollow one he hands it back as his brain begins to work:: CO: With all due respect I...I ...I can't accept a promotion ma'am....
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
OPS:  At ease Mr. Fong!
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Turns the stone once more::  CSO: Lieutenant Senn, for your excellent performance and devotion to one's duties, I hereby promote you to Lieutenant Commander.  ::turns again to the aid and takes another black box, opening it adding the pip to Senn's collar.

Host Admiral_Cosgrave says:
::Moves back to the stone and turns it.::  All:  Now if we all will move into the reception area, there is a traditional Lothian feast and a few added Federation specialties.
MO_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::Begins to clap as well, although keeping an eye on Fong's status::
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Quietly::  OPS: At ease Lieutenant.  This is not the time or place.
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:

OPS_Ens_Fong says:
::is still shaking his head his eyes wide as he looks for an out, the CMO's words very tempting, he takes a step or two in that direction, then slides his hand into his pocket with the pip still tightly gripped.  He feels a sharp pain in his hand and that helps him keep rooted in this reality::
Host Admiral_Cosgrave says:
::Nods to his aides as they open the reception area doors.::  All:  Enjoy the party.  ::Stops the stone and moves down towards the reception area.::
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
