Last time on the Scimitar:

The Scimitar is currently docked at SB123 and has been experiencing some blackouts, the CEO has not found the cause of these yet. During one of these blackouts, the CSO went missing. Meanwhile on the station, Ensign Yor'KiE's court martial was performed with him receiving a reprimand and community service. Upon leaving the room he attempted to attack the CTO – a new court martial will be scheduled to deal with the new changes.

And the crew needs a new tailor to fix their trousers, or a new cook to get them to eat more...

Captain's Log, Stardate 10902.16, After an initial failed court martial... in which the OPS officer attempted to assault the CTO, we tried to arrange a time to try again.

CTO Ens Amuz says:
::on the station, sitting in the security room doing 'work' ::
CO Capt MacAllister says:
::in one of the station's lounges sitting at a table with a hot coffee and a PADD::
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::Walking into one of the stations lounges and by coincidence notices the captain sitting there, all alone... at a table... with a PADD.::
Admiral Shinra says:
::walks into the lounge:: CO: Ah, Captain, the computer told me you'd be here. We need to talk.
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::Suddenly sees the Admiral rushing by and overhears what he says to the captain and before going for the captain's table he decides to head for the bar instead.::
CTO Ens Amuz says:
:: sighs and types 'Lack of control, he attempted to strike' on the report:: Self: There has to be better wording than this
CO Capt MacAllister says:
::looks up at the Admiral:: Shinra: Take a seat Admiral... I've just been looking over the transcript from the court room the other day.
Admiral Shinra says:
::sits down:: CO: What are you planning to do with your Operations Officer. I know he's your crew member, but given the current court martial situation, I wanted to be kept in the loop.
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::Sits down close enough to still be able to hear what the Admiral and Captain are talking about.:: Self: Wh... what happened? Where was I all this time.... hmm, where is Lenny?
CTO Ens Amuz says:
:: pockets the PADD and gets up to leave for a meal::
CTO Ens Amuz says:
::walks to the nearest lounge/bar/drinking hole ::
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::As he tries hard to think about the past couple of weeks, he is suddenly startled by the bartender, offering him a soda on the house.:: Bartender: Oh... thanks ::Tries to smile as he is clearly confused::
CO Capt MacAllister says:
Shinra: I have to wonder if another attempt at a court martial would be as futile as the first... personally I think that a restriction of liberties and confinement to his quarters when off duty for a period yet to be determined would be a start.
CTO Ens Amuz says:
::walks up to the bar:: CMO: Sorry, is this seat taken...um...sir?
Admiral Shinra says:
CO: The Court Martial was not a failure. His penalty was decided. Confinement to the Ship in his next shore leave, 24 hours community service and an official reprimand on his record.
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::Looks over his shoulder.:: CTO: Oh err... no, please... sit down.
CTO Ens Amuz says:
CMO: Thank you ::sits down:: Your face looks familiar but I cannot place it. ::nods:: Ensign Khethiwe Amuz, the Scimitar's new CTO
CO Capt MacAllister says:
Shinra: Maybe not a failure but it was cut short... and if I remember correctly it was you who suggested trying again at another time, therefore I assumed that a decision hadn't been made.
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
CTO: Oh that's right. I recall seeing something about your assignment. I am the Chief Medical Officer on the Scimitar. I don't believe we have personally met yet. Zoran Abmeraz is the name and it is my pleasure to meet you. ::Bows slightly::
CNS Lt Solaa says:
::enters the Crew Lounge looking very dishevelled, stressed, and generally not well at all for a pregnant woman as she walks over to the CMO and notices the new CTO:: CMO: Doctor... I was looking for you...
CTO Ens Amuz says:
::glances backwards and notices the CNS:: CNS: Please, take my seat, ma'am
Admiral Shinra says:
CO: To be honest... ::pours herself some water:: I was considering a second court martial for his violent behaviour towards Ensign Amuz. I happen to have seen Amuz in action while she waited on board this station for your return. She could have wiped his face on the floor and then some... He's lucky she was more professional than he seems to be.
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::Blinks for a moment:: CNS: Hello lieutenant... you were... looking for me? To what do I owe the occasion?
CNS Lt Solaa says:
CMO: Yes. About some prescriptions that need filling... ::doesn't really want to reveal that those prescriptions are for her while the new CTO is sitting right there and mumbles something vague::
CO Capt MacAllister says:
Shinra: Having seen the way she handled herself at the hearing I think she's going to be an asset to the Scimitar. ::smiles::
Admiral Shinra says:
CO: That I agree with. ::Sighs:: How is your Counsellor holding up?
CTO Ens Amuz says:
::looks at the CNS, then at the CMO:: Both: I understand. ::moves away so they can talk::
Admiral Shinra says:
::sees the CTO stand up and motions for her to come over::
CO Capt MacAllister says:
Shinra: About as well as I would expect a woman in her condition... she can be rather highly strung at times but I have to admit she's a good judge of character.
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::Frowns:: CNS: Prescriptions err... okay. Do you have them listed somewhere, so I can see if we have them in our inventory or that I need to stop by the Station's Sickbay to restock?
CTO Ens Amuz says:
::approaches the CO and Admiral and comes to a perfect attention, eyes forward, back straight:: Shinra: Yes, Admiral?
Admiral Shinra says:
CTO: Please, have a seat. ::nods to the CO:: CO: Well I think it's high time I gave you an idea of what your next mission is about.
CO Capt MacAllister says:
::doesn't remember seeing even a cadet stand so straight::
CNS Lt Solaa says:
CMO: I just need something! I can't sleep, I'm overly stressed out, I can't find Will anywhere on this damn ship and I just  need something... I don't care what! ::is on the verge of tears and her voice is strained::
CTO Ens Amuz says:
::nods and takes a seat::
Admiral Shinra says:
CO/CTO: Ensign Amuz has been working for me recently on this project, so I am including her in this briefing.
CNS Lt Solaa says:
CMO: And there's just not much I can take with the baby and all, and...and...
CO Capt MacAllister says:
::nods and listens to what the Admiral has to say::
CTO Ens Amuz says:
::sits and listens attentively::
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::Looks around for a bit as he finally realizes the counsellor's reaction.:: CNS: My dear, is everything alright. Is there something you wish to talk about? ::Reaches for his carry-on medkit.::
Admiral Shinra says:
CO/CTO: Well, I won't go into details here, but we picked up a message from the Biruani sector. Or I should say, Intercepted.
CNS Lt Solaa says:
::is a bit frustrated:: CMO: I just told you! Will has disappeared! You know, the CSO? Last time he was heard from he was in Engineering and now he's gone! I've looked everywhere and asked everyone and no one has seen him and not even the computer knows where he is!
CO Capt MacAllister says:
Shinra: When you say intercepted... I assume the signal was not intended for Starfleet's ears?
Admiral Shinra says:
::takes an ill-timed sip of water:: CO: Precisely. Thanks to Ensign Amuz here and the other members of my team, we think it's from the Romulan New Order. I believe you to be one of the leading experts on them.
CNS Lt Solaa says:
CMO: This has happened to me before, you know, but last time my ex got kidnapped by Romulans and it was just a horrible experience to try and get him back but I don't know who could have taken Will or if he just died or ran off or... ::wipes back tears starting to form:: And I need something to calm me down and help me sleep.
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::tries to calm the Counsellor a bit as he searches through the medkit for a hypospray with a sedative.:: CNS: Now now deary, I am pretty sure that there is a good explanation for this. Please... sit down for a moment. ::Holds the hypospray to the CNS' neck and releases a small dosage of the sedative, hoping to calm her enough to relax a bit.::
CO Capt MacAllister says:
Shinra: Oh those..... yes, we've had a few run-ins with them in the past... Almost as annoying as the Airilians.
Admiral Shinra says:
CO/CTO: I also believe they may have had something to do with the disappearance of Lieutenant York.
CO Capt MacAllister says:
Shinra: If they're trying to get to the Scimitar through one of her crew, why take a Lieutenant that hasn't been on the ship very long?
Admiral Shinra says:
CO/CTO: Here's where you come in. As soon as the Scimitar is up and ready, you're going to find out what is in the Biruani sector. We want to put an end to this rebel group interfering in Federation territory. ::turns to the CO as he asks his question:: CO: Good question. Maybe they thought he'd be easier to replace being as most of the crew don't know him well enough to have seen any difference.
CNS Lt Solaa says:
CMO: I can't see any explanation of how he could have just... disappeared... without a trace. It's like he wasn't ever here... not a word, no way of locating him...
Admiral Shinra says:
CO/CTO: But there is more... and this is where it gets interesting for you... ::pauses to raise the expectation::
CO Capt MacAllister says:
Shinra: Solaa knows him better than anyone, but I guess they don't know that... either way, what are we supposed to do with anything we find in Biruani?
CTO Ens Amuz says:
::whispers:: CO: Sir, I will need as much intel you have on this group already to add to my research
Admiral Shinra says:
::slowly takes a sip of water, then refills her glass until she is happy with its level::
CO Capt MacAllister says:
::whispers:: CTO: I'll make sure you get access to all the records when we're under way.
Admiral Shinra says:
::reaches down to take her cup again, then decides against it::
Admiral Shinra says:
CO/CTO: We believe the New Romulan Order might just be ::coughs:: Excuse me... ::picks up her water and drinks to calm a cough::
CTO Ens Amuz says:
::tries her best not to show any impatience::
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::nods:: CNS: I understand... and I realise it is hard for you at the moment. I would help if I could, honestly. I am certain that soon the Captain will get us all together and search for him. In the meantime I would like to see you on a daily basis, just to see how you are doing, okay? We don't want anything to happen to your little one, do you?
Admiral Shinra says:
::raises a finger in a 'just a second' gesture as she downs the whole cup in one go::
Admiral Shinra says:
CO/CTO: We believe they may be using the sector as their main HQ. So the Scimitar goes in on a strictly reconnaissance mission to see if it is true.
Admiral Shinra says:
CO/CTO: But the best bit is we have a 5 person Romulan Shuttle at the ready for possible infiltration purposes and it's being loaded into the fighter wing bay of the Scimitar as we speak.
CO Capt MacAllister says:
Shinra: Well we can go in as a recon mission but I can't guarantee it stays that way... if they have our CSO I will use any means at my disposal to get him back.
CTO Ens Amuz says:
Self: A Romulan Shuttle, now that should be interesting... ::avoids showing any external emotion::
CNS Lt Solaa says:
CMO: ...No... but I don't know what else to do... without Will here its just... unbearable...
Admiral Shinra says:
CO/CTO: Hence why we have given you the shuttle and why Starfleet deemed it necessary to send an Akira class starship out there. As for your rescue plan, there are bigger things at stake that I can't go into detail here. Any rescue plan must be cleared by me first, is that clear?
CTO Ens Amuz says:
::looks at her CO for a response ::
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::sighs softly.:: CNS: We will find him deary, you'll see. I know the Scimitar and most of its crew for quite some time now... And the captain will not loose any of his crew if he can help it. So keep your chin up. ::Tries his utmost best to create a comforting smile.::
CO Capt MacAllister says:
Shinra: With respect Admiral, my first responsibility is the safety of my crew. I will not sacrifice any one of them for the sake of a mission.
Admiral Shinra says:
CO: Then maybe you are not the right crew to send. We are talking about taking out the entire Romulan New Order here.
CTO Ens Amuz says:
Shinra: Admiral, with all due respect the Captain does need to respect the General Orders
CNS Lt Solaa says:
::shakes her head hopelessly:: 
CO Capt MacAllister says:
Shinra: Need I remind you that we have faced the Romulan New Order on 2 separate occasions and sent them running each time. they crossed the line with me the first time and nothing would give me greater pleasure than seeing the lot of them burn.
Admiral Shinra says:
CTO: If you are referring to General Order 17, I am in full agreement. All I ordered was that your rescue plans be run by me.
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
CNS: Come now, I've seen situations worse than these, more hopeless than this and .... ::realizes those are not his best words and stops.:: Would you perhaps care for a soda? ::Waves for the bartender.:: Bartender, please bring the lady something to drink... invigorating, relaxing but with no alcohol.
CTO Ens Amuz says:
Shinra: Understood, Admiral. I was voicing my opinion that the Captain should not choose the success of the mission over the sacrifice of a crew member. ::bows her head:: And I will not speak out of turn again, sir.
Admiral Shinra says:
CO: We're not talking 2 ships here, we are talking their HQ, their most heavily fortified position. Now, before you argue further let me re-emphasise that getting back the CSO is obviously one of your main priorities. I also emphasise that due to the critical situation, Starfleet needs to keep updated on more regular occasions during this operation.
