Captain's log, Stardate 10501.12
We're on our way to Delana IV and I've called for a briefing, to take place in five minutes.  I'm heading down to the briefing room right now to meet my senior staff and inform them of the necessary details of our mission on Delana IV.

Host CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Walking the corridor outside the briefing room, a few padds in his hands.::

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Makes his way through a corridor and heads towards the briefing room.::  Self:  Let's not try to be late.  Maybe I can impress the new captain by being there first.

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::Heads to the Briefing room from bridge wondering what are their orders.::

CSO_T`Lena says:
::Takes the TL to the floor where the meeting room is being held, ordering it to the proper level.  Exits the TL and heads to the meeting room.::

Host CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Enters the briefing room, after all have arrived and taken a seat.::

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::Takes a look around to see who is on briefing.::

CSO_T`Lena says:
::Walks through the corridor to the briefing room, enters and notices the Captain standing by the door.::  CO:  Ens. T'Lena, Sir, reporting for duty.

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Straightens out his uniform the best he can while sitting as the captain enters.::

Host CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Looks up from the door, to T´Lena.::  CSO:  Excellent, after you, ensign.  ::Smiles at her, then steps through the door behind her.::

CSO_T`Lena says:
CO:  Thank you, Sir.  ::Enters the room, and takes a seat at the table.::

Host CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Walks up to a little lecture chair in the front of the briefing room and sets his padds down on it.::

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::Still looking with his eye's wide open what is going on waiting for the briefing to start.::

CSO_T`Lena says:
::Waits patiently for her CO to address the crew.::

Host CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Waits a moment or two, looking at the senior staff.::  All:  All right, lady, gentlemen, welcome.  As you all know, yesterday was our launch for the new mission.  I´ll be telling a bit more about our mission this morning.

Host CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Scans the crew with his eyes while talking.::  All:  Starfleet has ordered us to the Denara system, to attend a wedding ceremony.  The Federation was invited as guests, and since we´re the nearest available starship, we got this egg from the basket.

CSO_T`Lena says:
::Fidgets in her seat, wondering if she's going to have to get dressed up for this occasion.::

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::Feel's like he is been scanned.::  Self:  Huh?

CSO_T`Lena says:
CO:  It sounds like .. fun.

Host CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
All:  Now, relations with the Denarans haven't been all that good lately, even though they are part of the Federation, be it under probation.

Host CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
All:  Therefore, we need to be cautious in the area. I want each and every one of you to read this carefully.  ::Points at the padds.::  Get yourself familiar with the species and their culture.

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Nods at every end of the Captains sentences as he still tries to sit up as straight as possible.::

CSO_T`Lena says:
::Pulls up the padd to look at the long detailed summary of the species.::  CO:  What is our destination time, Captain?

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::Takes the padd looking at it and wondering about their wedding customs.::

CSO_T`Lena says:
::Thinks about Betazoid weddings and gets a scared look on her face.::  CO:  They do .. wear clothes to these ceremonies, do they not?

Host CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Sighs.::  All:  I'm afraid it's not much, but it's the best we have.  Any questions?  ::Looks at the CSO.::  CSO:  Arrival time should be in two days from now, a day before the wedding.

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::While looking over the padd a question comes to mind.::  CO:  Sir, do we have a gift to present to the newlyweds on behalf of the federation?

Host CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
CSO:  I´m not sure,we know little to nothing about their wedding ceremonies.  But I think they do wear clothes.

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
Self:  I hope so.

CSO_T`Lena says:
::Breathes a little more easily.::

Host CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Tilts his head slightly.::  CTO:  I haven´t been informed about any special cargo to be delivered as a present.

CSO_T`Lena says:
CO:  This padd indicates that there is a rebel faction threatening the current governmental structure.  Are we anticipating any threats during the wedding?

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Nods.::  CO:  Perhaps we have some time to ask the locals.  We do arrive on a day before the wedding.

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
All:  That is job right for me.  I know my way with people.

Host CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Shakes head.::  CSO:  I do not believe so.  These rebel factions haven´t been seen anymore lately. 

CSO_T`Lena says:
CO: I would rather err on the side of caution, Sir.  My theory is if they are going to show their faces, a royal wedding would be time to make their presence known.  But that is just my opinion, Sir.

Host CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
CTO:  Perhaps I was not informed yet and we did have some gift for them.  We´ll have to find that out.

CSO_T`Lena says:
CO:  And are we going to be armed during this wedding, Captain, or are we going to trust them?

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Nods again.::

Host CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
CSO:  We have no reason not to trust them, we´ll go unarmed.

CSO_T`Lena says:
CO:  Then I'm assuming the ship will keep a constant transporter lock on us?

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::Whispering to self.::  Self:  Don't blame me if those rebels suddenly appear.

Host CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Nods.::  CSO: As is standard with all away missions.  This one will not be different in that aspect.

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
Self:  And caught us without weapons, easy targets.

CSO_T`Lena says:
CO:  Aye, Captain.  ::Nods her acknowledgement.::

Host CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Looks around the room.::  All:  Anyone else, now is the time.  ::Smiles.::

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Looks up from the padd again.::  CO: No further questions from me for now, Captain.

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
CO:  How long are we staying down there?

Host CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Shrugs.::  FCO: For as long as we have to, in order to fulfill what is being asked from us.

CSO_T`Lena says:
::Continues to scan her padd for any other pertinent details.::

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
CO:  Well, as we don't have lot of information about their wedding customs, the wedding may take couple of days.

Host CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Nods.::  FCO:  Indeed it may, and we´ll trust them to have made appropriate preparations for us, so we would be comfortable.  And where needed, we will learn to be comfortable, every single one of us.

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
:: Nods.::

CSO_T`Lena says:
CO:  Will we be beaming down to the planet or are we taking a shuttle?  And I am assuming this is a breathable atmosphere, Sir?

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
CO:  Sir, planet is rich with Dilithium.  That means we will have dificulties with sensors in mountain range.  If concentration of Dilithium affects sensors, it is chance that  will affect our comm and teleporters!

Host CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
CSO:  Yes, it is.  I would say you as chief science officer should know that is true for an M-class planet.  ::Smiles.::

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
CO:  You said that there is rebel faction that may be the hiding place ....as I see deep underground is a perfect place to make a headquarters of a rebel faction if they don't want to be discovered!

CSO_T`Lena says:
::Grins..::  CO:  Just doing my job, Captain.

Host CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
FCO:  Very true, but I answered that question.  Last scan of the planet, no rebel bases nor groups were found.

CSO_T`Lena says:
CO:  Could the dilithium be blocking sensor readings?

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
CO:  Yes, but as I said ...in that area ..especially where there are veins of Dilithium, sensors aren't working.

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Rubs his chin a little:: Self: They could have a point there.

Host CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Nods.::  CSO:  Yes, it could.  ::Turns to the FCO.::  FCO:  I am aware of that.  It doesn´t state whether these were merely sensor scans.  For all we know there are also surveys on foot, especially in the mountains.

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
CO:  Noticed, but I still recommend to be on guard and monitor those areas constantly when we arrive there!

Host CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Nods.::  FCO:  Noted, thank you.  All:  Anyone else with questions and or remarks?

CSO_T`Lena says:
::Shakes her head no.::

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Shakes his head slightly.::  CO:  No more questions for now, Sir.

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
CO:  Not from me!  ::Takes another look at padd.::

CSO_T`Lena says:
::Places the padd back on the table and pushes it slightly away from her, facing the Captain, and wondering if anyone else is going to ask any more questions.::

Host CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Nods.::  All:  Excellent.  Then you're all dismissed, and may report back to your posts.  ::Nods, while he rearranges his padds.::

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Nods at the captain, gets up from his chair and straightens out his uniform again, before heading out of the briefing room.::

CSO_T`Lena says:
::Rises and pushes her chair in, walks over to the CO.::  CO:  Sir, can I have a word with you in private, Sir?

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::Stands up.::  CO:  Aye, Sir!  ::Turns around heading back toward bridge.::

Host CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Looks up from his padds.::  CSO:  Certainly, ensign.  ::Smiles, looking at the door, seeing the last of the crew has left.::  CSO:  What's on your mind?

CSO_T`Lena says:
CO:  I understand you want to .. trust these people .. but I have to be honest with you, Sir.  I have a hard time trusting a species that is this new to the federation.  I am suggesting that we conceal weapons somehow, just in case.

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::As soon he enters the bridge he takes a seat at the helm wondering about the rebels and the wedding he is about to attend.::

Host CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
CSO:  I understand your concern, ensign, but carrying a weapon, even if it´s hidden, may give them the wrong signal.  We have to be very careful not to do anything they would consider strange or wrong.  We're not going to carry weapons, and risk to provoke some action from their side.

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Arrives at the bridge and walks over to his console to check on the latest readings.::

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::Checks speed and engine status and then checks direction  and coordinates.::

CSO_T`Lena says:
CO:  Aye, Sir.  Understood.  Thank you for listening, Captain.  Just wanted to speak my mind, Sir.

Host SM_Sergio says:
ACTION:  The heading is off by 0.001 degrees.

Host CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Smiles.::  CSO: Nothing wrong with that.  Now, off you go.  ::Nods.::

CIV_Turner says:
::Arrives on the bridge right after the CTO and walks over to him.::

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
Self:  What is this?  Who played with my console?  ::Types some buttons and makes the modification to heading returning on old direction and coordinates.::

CIV_Turner says:
CTO:  Hey there, Tanner.

CSO_T`Lena says:
::Nods to the Captain, exiting the conference room, heading to the TL, entering TL, and ordering it to the bridge.::

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Looks at the CIV.::  CIV:  Oh, hi.  Haven't seen you in during the briefing, is everything alright?

CSO_T`Lena says:
Self:  Well .. hmm?  That was interesting?  I do hope they are friendly.

Host CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Makes a neat stack of his padds and heads out too, carrying them in his hands again.::

Host CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Enters the nearest TL::  TL:  Deck 1.

CSO_T`Lena says:
::Exits the TL, walks onto the bridge and heads to her station running a Level 5 Diagnostic to assure system performance is at peak.::

CIV_Turner says:
CTO:  Yeah everythings fine I just had some things to tie up.  What did I miss?

Host CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Exits the TL on Deck 1 and heads directly to his ready room, by-passing the bridge.  He enters and puts the padds on the desk.  He then walks around the desk to the little replicator.::

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::Checks again and as soon he see's that everything is in order he leans in his chair.::

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
CIV:  As you know we're going to Denara IV.  The Federation has asked us to attend a royal wedding there.  Think you're up for that?

CIV_Turner says:
::Rolls his eyes.::  CTO:  Not really.  I hate weddings.

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Pads him on the shoulder with a smile.::  CIV:  Well, we're going to be there, like it or not.
