Ship Manager 
Karriaunna Scotti

Last time on the Seleya:

The crew and their guests work on getting ready to go down the Edan, a dead world with nothing known about it other then its continuing storms and the fact it was here the Magna Romans found the ship and weapons.  Putting their time into getting ready, they have yet to examine the unknown crates, sealed with items removed from the Magna Roman's planet for which only the captain has the code to open.

Added to that, as they passed through an asteroid belt just within the system, they located the remains of ship that appears to have crashed into one of the large asteroids over two thousand years ago… a ship made of the same material as that the Magna Romans found.  Now the Seleya approaches the planet itself.  On the viewscreen is a desolate world that orbits a red giant; a star that long ago began its death throws apparently taking with it, at least one living world…

Captain's log, Stardate 10909.05. We arrived at Edan. I called a meeting to organize the first planetary incursion. Meanwhile I visited the cargo bay to see what exactly was sent to the Seleya for my eyes only.

OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
::walks into the observation room with a scientist in tow::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
::for the past 20 minutes she has been locked in the cargo bay with only one trusted officer looking over the crates that were beamed aboard. The first task is clear, catalogue them::
CEO Lt Trigger says:
::Finishes briefing the security team in the shuttle bay and heads up to the observation lounge::
SO Lt Rose says:
:: Puts down one of the artifacts, frowning as she stands::  CO:  I have no idea what this one is either...  but I can say it is a least similar to one of the parts taken from the crash.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
SO: I am hoping we will find more on the planet. Better yet, we may find a database that will tell us what this was all supposed to be. I am just not sure why Starfleet wants to make such a secret of all of this. It doesn't seem that ... advanced
Suzie Bennet says:
OPS:  Can I say I am a bit nervous?  I have never been to a briefing with the command staff of a starship.
FCO Ens MacArthur says:
::Tapping commands into the helm to establish standard orbit:: *CO*: MacArthur to Captain Gomes, we're establishing standard orbit around Edan
SO Lt Rose says:
CO:  I cannot tell if it is advanced or not.  If we go by that ship we found it is; speaking of which, I wish we had it.  It might answer some of these questions.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
::taps her badge:: *FCO*: Thank you Mr MacArthur. Run a quick sensor sweep of the surface and take the report to the staff meeting
 
Scenery:  As the ship slips into orbit, swirls of storms cross the globe with an occasional flash of lightening highlighting it to those above.

OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
Bennet: Don't worry, it's just an official way to have a coffee.
CEO Lt Trigger says:
::steps out of the turbolift and heads for the observation lounge::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
SO: I bet its being torn apart by some Starfleet lab. ::puts down another piece:: SO: I think we are done here. All the pieces are catalogued for comparison. Let's wrap up and go to the meeting
SO Lt Rose says:
:: Looks sad::  CO:  I so hope ye are wrong... that would be a crime.
SO Lt Rose says:
:: sighs as she dusts off her hands.::  CO: If ye have no objection, I will have some of my people take it down to the labs and start checking it over.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
::smiles:: SO: I understand what you mean but part of the beauty of any object is in how it works. How are we supposed to figure that out without touching it?
Suzie Bennet says:
 OPS:  I like my coffee with lots of cream and sugar, but nothing else.  :: smiles as she looks around.::
FCO Ens MacArthur says:
*CO*: Aye sir. ::Thinking to himself that's a pretty powerful weather system:: Computer: Initiate surface scan on the planet below and download the results to a PADD
 CO Capt Gomes says:
SO: No objections, except that they only share whatever information they gather with me and you. I don't understand Starfleet's secrecy but I will follow it
SO Lt Rose says:
CO:  True... as long as they have the ability to put it back together... but still... :: shrugs::
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
::orders the drink from the replicator and hands it over:: Bennet: Have a seat.
CEO Lt Trigger says:
::enters the lounge and heads for the replicator to get a coffee::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
SO: There's no point in thinking about it too much. Lets head to the observation lounge ::goes to the exit::
SO Lt Rose says:
:: nods:: CO:  Probably it is more along the lines of they don't know and until they do, they are being extra cautious to keep others not so nice from getting their hands on it.
SO Lt Rose says:
:: As she follows, she contacts two of her team and gives them orders to begin taking a few items to the lab to study them.::
 
ACTION:  The FCO's padd blinks as the download is completed.
 
CO Capt Gomes says:
SO: That sounds like bureaucratic thinking alright ::enters the lift, waits for Rose and orders the computer to take them to the observation lounge::
Suzie Bennet says:
:: takes a seat and the coffee::  OPS:  Thanks.  So... tell me, how long have you been aboard the Seleya?
FCO Ens MacArthur says:
::Lifts padd and heads for the observation lounge::
CEO Lt Trigger says:
::takes his coffee to the table and takes a seat::
FCO Ens MacArthur says:
::Doors slide open:: All: Hi all.
CEO Lt Trigger says:
::looks up as the doors slide open:: FCO: Hey Frank.
Suzie Bennet says:
:: turns around and smiles at the newcomer::  FCO:  Hi.
FCO Ens MacArthur says:
Suzie Bennet: Hi I'm Ensign MacArthur, the ship's helmsman.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
::once she arrives at the right level she heads for the lounge:: SO: By the way, I never got to see any of your honeymoon pictures
FCO Ens MacArthur says:
Suzie Bennet: Frank will do though.
Suzie Bennet says:
 FCO:  Frank it is.  Don't mind me.  I think I was the defacto today.
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
::nods to all who entered:: Bennet: Not too long. Less than a year.
SO Lt Rose says:
:: Blushes::  CO:  Ummm... As soon as I go through them, I will put them online.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
SO: Online? I would say its worth a dinner party to watch them ::smiles as she enters the observation lounge::
SO Lt Rose says:
CO:  You're on.  Calean is a good cook.
SO Lt Rose says:
:: Moves to take the seat beside the volunteered cook.::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
SO: Perfect ::heads for the head of the table and looks around:: All: I think we are all here
FCO Ens MacArthur says:
::Smiles:: Replicator: Coffee, Milk and Sugar, hot ::replicates and MacArthur takes his seat::
CEO Lt Trigger says:
::turns to Brianna and smiles, then notices the grin on her face:: SO: What have you volunteered me for now? ::grins::
Suzie Bennet says:
:: Sits a little bit straighter as she smiles at the captain.::
FCO Ens MacArthur says:
CEO: Something that requires you to come back with a rather dirty uniform.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
::sits down:: All: I would like to start with our current situation. FCO: Mr MacArthur, what did the preliminary scans of the planet detect?
SO Lt Rose says:
:: quietly, his ears alone::  CEO:  You know those pictures ye should not have taken?  Well, I am going to have to go through and take them out so we can show the captain our 'proper' wedding pictures.  You get to cook dinner while I do that.
CEO Lt Trigger says:
FCO: Looking at the weather systems down on the surface I'd say Maor already volunteered me for that.
CEO Lt Trigger says:
SO: I'd rather be doing that than heading in to those storms down there on Edan. ::smiles::
FCO Ens MacArthur says:
::smiles at CEO:: CO: Captain, the scans show its not pleasant down there. Storms are rampant, and very frequent and likely to continue. But there is good news.....
 CO Capt Gomes says:
::listens::
SO Lt Rose says:
:: Leans forward to see around Caelan::
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
::listening::
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
::notices the new wedding bands on the CEOs and SOs hands and smiles::
FCO Ens MacArthur says:
CO: It's breathable. But there is a lot of dust which could cloud our vision if there is wind
 CO Capt Gomes says:
FCO: Thank you Mr MacArthur
 CO Capt Gomes says:
Suzie Bennet: Ms Bennet. What is your team's plan?
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
::turns to Bennet::
FCO Ens MacArthur says:
::looks at Bennet::
Suzie Bennet says:
 CO:  Basic recon at the moment.  We know no more then you do... perhaps less as you have at least some of the technology brought from this world.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
::nods:: OPS: Ms Ecchumati, I need your expertise to find us a landing spot. We are looking for signs of technology, preferably as far from any storm as possible. Also, I need to know if these storms may interfere with transporters
 CO Capt Gomes says:
OPS: I am sure Ms Bennet's team will help you on that task
SO Lt Rose says:
CO:  I am thinking... at least at home this was true, that where there are high mountains and deep valleys, the winds are often not as strong.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
SO: But then there is the peril of avalanche. But you are right
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
CO: Aye ma’am. The transporters are going to be affected by interference, yes.
Suzie Bennet says:
:: Not sure how they could help... maybe Tveken... quietly considers::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
OPS: Then we will need a safe landing spot for the shuttle
CEO Lt Trigger says:
::sits back watching and listening::
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
CO: I shall attempt to locate one. May I request I join the away team?
 CO Capt Gomes says:
OPS: You are certainly on my list ::smiles::
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
::smiles back::
FCO Ens MacArthur says:
CO: Do you wish me to pilot the shuttle?
 CO Capt Gomes says:
FCO: Yes Mr MacArthur, I will. One thing at a time ::turns to the CEO::
CEO Lt Trigger says:
::thinks 'uh oh'::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
CEO: Mr Trigger you will also be a key element in this team. One of our major goals is to figure out what kind of technology these people had. Thats where you come in
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
::sees the CEO gulp and narrows her eyes::
FCO Ens MacArthur says:
::see Triggers face and wishes he had a camera::
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
::turns to FCO to see if he noticed the CEOs face::
CEO Lt Trigger says:
::nods:: CO: Not to mention the fact that having an engineer on the runabout would be an advantage if we get hit by one of those storms.
FCO Ens MacArthur says:
::looks at OPS and smiles::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
CEO: Lets not think that way just yet. You can bring one of two assistants but keep it at a minimum
CEO Lt Trigger says:
::looks at OPS and the FCO wondering why they’re looking at him strangely::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
CIV: Prepare two shuttles for immediate departure
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
::looks to the CIV who she hadn’t noticed was there at all, like a ninja in camouflage::
 
ACTION:  With a nod to the captain, the stoic Maor pushes himself away from the wall where he had been quietly watching and heads down to the shuttle bay.

CO Capt Gomes says:
FCO: Once Ms Ecchumatti finds us a landing spot, start plotting a course through those storms
 CO Capt Gomes says:
All: Are there any questions?
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
Bennet: Sound okay with you?
Suzie Bennet says:
 OPS:  Sure...
FCO Ens MacArthur says:
::sees Maor:: CO: Yes sir. No questions. Suzie Bennet: I'll take you down to the shuttlebay
 CO Capt Gomes says:
SO: I need you to hold the fort up here. Continue the investigations on those artifacts and keep an eye on us
SO Lt Rose says:
:: Nods, a bit disappointed, but not by too much... yet::  CO: Aye, captain.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
All: As soon as we have a landing spot we are leaving. So, be ready. Dismissed
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
::quietly:: FCO: Take care of her. ::smiles and heads to the bridge::
SO Lt Rose says:
:: Stands::  CEO:  Sooo... when I get too bored, I get to take the ship out for a spin?
FCO Ens MacArthur says:
OPS: No worries. ::Escorts Suzie to the turbolift::
Suzie Bennet says:
FCO:  I guess we should also round up the rest of the group.  Everyone has been ready and waiting almost since we came aboard.
CEO Lt Trigger says:
SO: I heard about the Captain of an Akira class doing that once... but I think he got in a whole heap of trouble for it. ::grins::
FCO Ens MacArthur says:
::overhearing Lt Rose:: SO: Eh i've locked those controls. ::smiles
 CO Capt Gomes says:
::after everybody leaves she also heads for the bridge, wondering if they realized she was personally leading the away team::
SO Lt Rose says:
Hmph... CEO:  If he was the captain, he couldn't get into trouble.
FCO Ens MacArthur says:
Suzie Bennet: okay where are they just now?
SO Lt Rose says:
:: looks over at Frank, teasingly::  FCO:  I hope not... what if I need to get you out of danger or take the ship out of danger... then what?
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
CO: Captain... Why would Rose need to hold the fort?
FCO Ens MacArthur says:
::knowing she's only playing:: SO: The ship and I have a bond, she'll know what to do. ::smiles::
CEO Lt Trigger says:
::smiles and kisses Brianna on the cheek:: SO: I've got to get down to the shuttle bay, make sure everything's ready.
Suzie Bennet says:
FCO:  Down in the lounge, most likely.
SO Lt Rose says:
:: chuckles and shakes her head at the FCO as she heads out the door and stops with her husband.::
SO Lt Rose says:
CEO: I am not worried about the getting ready part... but... :: shakes her head::  You be safe... and I be expecting lots of data back from ye.
FCO Ens MacArthur says:
Suzie Bennet: okay we'll head there first. CEO: Sir are you..... ::noticing he's with his wife::
FCO Ens MacArthur says:
Suzie Bennet
FCO Ens MacArthur says:
Suzie Bennet: He'll get the next turbolift:: Turbolift: Main lounge
CEO Lt Trigger says:
SO: I'll keep an open COM link. ::smiles and gently brushes her cheek with his thumb:: We'll be fine.
Suzie Bennet says:
:: Walking to the lift, going over in her mind the gear they are taking.::
SO Lt Rose says:
CEO:  See that you do... :: Leans upward for a kiss, then steps away.::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
OPS: I need someone with science expertise to track us. And Brianna is just the person to do it
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
CO: Us.. ::coughs:: Us?
FCO Ens MacArthur says:
Suzie Bennet: You look like your in deep thought ::turbolift arrives::
Suzie Bennet says:
FCO:  I keep going over in my mind the things we will need, especially given it will not be a simple matter of things being beamed down as we need them.  :: steps out of the lift towards the lounge.::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
OPS: Yes, us, the away team
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
CO: I take it you are going against all Starfleet protocol and guidelines and going to a hazardous planet, leaving the ship without a proper command staff member?
CEO Lt Trigger says:
::smiles and heads for the turbolift::
SO Lt Rose says:
:: Watches her husband walk away before stepping over toward the command center.::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
OPS: They are called guidelines because they are meant to guide our choices, not restrict them. I feel I am more useful on the ground for this one.
FCO Ens MacArthur says:
Suzie Bennet: No matter how much we think we end up forgetting something. I once forgot the unlocking code of a shuttle and I was transporting a captain to his first command. ::walks into the lounge::
FCO Ens MacArthur says:
Suzie Bennet: He wasn't pleased.
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
CO: Hm. Noted. ::nods:: I'll find us a nice picnic spot then, shall I? ::moves to the console and starts scanning the surface::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
::answers the COM from Maor. Everything is ready to go::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
OPS: Please do. The shuttles are ready to depart when we are ready
Suzie Bennet says:
:: chuckles::  FCO:  I can imagine.  :: walks over to her group.::  Let me introduce you to my team...  ::proceeds with the introductions as each person acknowledges their name with a nod of greeting.::
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
::finds a location:: CO: Okay, here will do. Looks like picnic tables and everything!
CEO Lt Trigger says:
::arrives in the shuttle bay and checks on the supplies that he had requested for the mission::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
OPS: That was quick. Send the location to MacArthur so he can find us a course. Every member of the crew should be equipped with a tricorder, a phaser and other standard exploration equipment
SO Lt Rose says:
OPS:  If it eases ye any, this will not be the first time I have been left in charge... and hopefully our first officer will be better shortly.
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
SO: It's not you I worry about. It's ours if we don't bring the Captain back in one piece. CO: Noted Captain.
FCO Ens MacArthur says:
All: Nice to meet you all. Okay do we head to the shuttlebay and transport any materials you need to there.
SO Lt Rose says:
:: smiles and drops her voice so only she can hear::  OPS:  Then I guess ye had all best return safe and sound.
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
SO: That's the plan. ::transmits coordinates to FCO::
Tveken says:
FCO:  Shjal will be remaining behind to monotor and gather data.  As for the rest of us, we are ready.  What gear we will have need of, has already been taken down to the shuttle bay.
FCO Ens MacArthur says:
Tveken: Okay no problem. Great then lets go.#
 
ACTION:  The FCO's padd flashes as a message comes through.

ACTION:  The team brought aboard all stands to follow the FCO out and down to the shuttle.

FCO Ens MacArthur says:
All: That's us got our coordinates. ::Leaves with team to the shuttlebay::
