=/\==/\==/\=RESUME MISSION=/\==/\==/\=
Host Bob_FM says:
ACTION: THE USS CHARLOTTETOWN IS PREFLIGHTING FOR THE JOURNEY FROM ANDORIA TO THE SOL SYSTEM, HOME OF THE HEADQUARTERS FOR THE UNITED FEDERATION OF PLANETS
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: finishes up the check of the sensor logs, not sure if the sensors are acting up since there was a blip earlier ::
CEO_Turnbull says:
::in her office, studying ships specifications::
CEO_Turnbull says:
::shakes her head and rubs her eyes::
Host Bob_FM says:
ACTION: THE ANDORIAN AMBASSADOR AND HIS PARTY ARE CURRENTLY IN THEIR VARIOUS QUARTERS, RESTING AND PERFORMING THEIR ROUTINE DUTIES
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
*CEO*: Tyria, did you get any malfunctions reported about the sensors?
CEO_Turnbull says:
*FCO*: I've not seen anything come through, from this end everything seems to be operating normally.
CMO_Kimura says:
*FCO*: You know, Commander, I think the Charlottetown has a small craft ship we can take the delegates on. ::walking down the corridors::
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
*CEO*: I guess it was just glitch then.
CEO_Turnbull says:
*FCO*: Either that or something is out there on the fringe of sensors and showing up every so often.
CMO_Kimura says:
::gets comm static and waits for the previous message to reach the FCO; walks into the Shuttlebay:: 
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: hears the doctor and replies :: *CMO*: I doubt that the Captain would approve of us taking our guests on a jaunt, but perhaps we could do a manual inspection of the hull.
CEO_Turnbull says:
*FCO*: Could we alter course briefly toward the source of the blip to check it out?
CMO_Kimura says:
*FCO*: But that's not any fun.
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
*CEO*: I don't have coordinates up and would have to run a search.
CEO_Turnbull says:
*FCO*: I'll do a run through the sensor readings to get a heading, then we can go from there.
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
*CEO*: I will ask the Captain if we can use one of the shuttlecraft to check on the exterior of the Charlottetown and then maybe we can play detective.
CEO_Turnbull says:
::pulls up the readings from the navigational sensors and begins backtracking through them for the blip::
CEO_Turnbull says:
*FCO*: We could use a shuttlecraft to check out this mysterious blip. It may be less obvious than a course change, provided something is really out there.
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: turns to the Captain :: CO: Sir, are they any objections to my taking one of the shuttles out to inspect the ship and run a few flight tests?
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: whispers into her combadge :: *CEO*: Grab the doctor and meet me in the shuttlebay.
CEO_Turnbull says:
::downloads the data concerning the heading of the blip onto a PADD and picks up a tool kit on the way out of her office:: *FCO*: I'm on my way.
CEO_Turnbull says:
*CMO*: Turnbull to Kimura, what is your current location?
Host CO_Shas says:
FCO: Permission granted Commander… it seems we have a bit of time before getting underway…
CMO_Kimura says:
*CEO*: Shuttlebay 1.
CEO_Turnbull says:
*CMO*: You're a step ahead of us. I'll join you there shortly.
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
CO: Sir, it won't take long. We wouldn't want to miss the Ambassador's dinner. :: grins ::
CEO_Turnbull says:
::makes her way to the shuttlebay::
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: stands and motions for another officer to cover the helm as she heads for the lift ::
Host CO_Shas says:
ACTION: WHILE THE CREW MAKES THEIR PLANS FOR LOGGING SOME FLIGHT-TIME, THE SHADOW OF A SENSOR GLITCH RESONATES EVER SO SLIGHTLY ON THE LONG-RANGE SENSORS
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
Computer: Deck three.
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: arrives at deck three and enters the shuttlebay looking for the others ::
CEO_Turnbull says:
::walks into the shuttlebay behind the FCO:: FCO/CMO: Sorry to keep you waiting.
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: smiles as she sees Tyria and the doctor :: CEO/CMO: Ladies!
CEO_Turnbull says:
::hands the PADD to the FCO:: FCO: This is the information on that sensor glitch or ghost. We'll see if there is anything to it while we're out there.
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: takes the PADD and smiles :: CEO: Thanks. All set?
CEO_Turnbull says:
::nods:: FCO: Should be. CMO: You ready?
CMO_Kimura says:
FCO: Let's take the Captain's Yacht. ::grins:: He really won't mind. He hardly uses it anyways.
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
CMO: Doctor, care to get some hours logged?
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
CMO: I don't think he'd like that.
CMO_Kimura says:
FCO: The whole time I've been with Shras, he has only taken the Yacht ONCE. I don't think he cares for flying.
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
CMO: I wonder why that is?
CMO_Kimura says:
FCO: And I've been with him a long time. If you want, we can take a delegate for further leverage. He can't say no to taking a delegate along.
CMO_Kimura says:
::smirks::
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
CMO: This is an inspection tour so we better stick to one of the smaller shuttles. :: looks around the bay ::
CEO_Turnbull says:
FCO: Your choice, we have a nice selection here.
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
CMO: Besides, I don't feel like heading down to deck sixteen just to get the yacht. :: smiles ::
CMO_Kimura says:
FCO: How about you take one shuttle, and I'll take another. ::smiles::
CEO_Turnbull says:
CMO: Since my teams have to inspect them after the flight, I'll say one is enough for now. ::chuckles::
CMO_Kimura says:
CEO: Yes, but we have two pilots. I'm sure our FCO won't take to kindly being flown around by me. ::smiles:: 
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
CEO/CMO: Let's go with the type nine, nice and small and fast.
CEO_Turnbull says:
FCO: Perhaps we should take one of the type 9s. For what we have in mind, all we need is a short range craft.
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: walks over and pats the side :: Self: Nice little ship. :: walks up the ramp :: CEO: Just my thoughts.
CMO_Kimura says:
FCO/CEO: So who's driving? 
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
CMO: Care to take us out? :: winks at Tyria ::
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: takes the co-pilot's seat ::
CEO_Turnbull says:
::puts her hands up:: CMO: Not me. ::smiles and nods slightly to the FCO::
CMO_Kimura says:
FCO: Certainly. ::hops into the pilot seat:: 
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: watches the hatch close ::
CEO_Turnbull says:
::sits behind the pilots seat and activates the console in front of her to monitor long range sensors::
CMO_Kimura says:
::starts preflight procedures:: 
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: inputs the PADD data into the shuttle's computer :: CMO: Ready when you are.
CMO_Kimura says:
FCO: I'm always ready. 
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
CMO: By the way, I'm Hope.
CMO_Kimura says:
FCO: I'm Kazue. ::winks:: 
CMO_Kimura says:
::takes the shuttle out:: 
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: nods :: CMO: Glad we got that settled finally.
CEO_Turnbull says:
::runs a comparison to the data that the FCO just entered::
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: turns slightly to Tyria :: CEO: You all buckled in back there?
CEO_Turnbull says:
FCO: Ready when you are.
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
CMO: I'll get clearance.
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
*Bridge*: This is the shuttle Yellowknife requesting permission for departure.
Host C_OPS says:
FCO: Yellowknife, you are cleared for departure from Main Shuttlebay
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
*C_OPS*: Acknowledged. Yellowknife out.
CEO_Turnbull says:
::monitors sensors as they depart the Charlottetown::
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
CMO: Metal to the pedal Kazue.
CMO_Kimura says:
FCO: Pedal to the metal, you mean? ::takes the ship out of the bay::
Host C_OPS says:
ACTION: AS THE SHUTTLE YELLOWKNIFE CLEARS THE SHUTTLEBAY,
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: taps the console controls :: CMO: I see you do pay attention. :: giggles ::
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
CMO: Take a long, slow pass around the Charlottetown.
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
CEO: Tyria, you ready for a visual?
Host C_OPS says:
ACTION: THERE IS A DEFINITE SENSOR READING THAT SOMETHING IS AMISS ON THE FRINGE OF THE LONG-RANGE SCANNER
CMO_Kimura says:
FCO: Aye, sir. 
CEO_Turnbull says:
::chuckles:: ALL: This should be good
CEO_Turnbull says:
::sees something on the fringe of sensors:: FCO/CMO Ladies, we have something on sensors, it's not just a glitch.
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: begins recording the pass ::
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
CEO: Can you identify?
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
CMO: Kazue, anything on navigational sensors that we might have missed?
CEO_Turnbull says:
FCO: I'm trying, but it's just on the fringe of long range sensors, so it isn't going to be easy.
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: leans over and brings the science console to life ::
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
CMO/CEO: Well ladies, I think we need to check things out. Agreed?
CEO_Turnbull says:
FCO: Agreed
CMO_Kimura says:
FCO: Sure.
CMO_Kimura says:
FCO: And I'm not finding anything on sensors. We might be too far away.
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: grins :: CMO: Kazue, that-away! :: points ::
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
CMO/CEO: I'll let the Captain know what we're up to.
CMO_Kimura says:
::laughs:: FCO: That rhymes! ::speeds up the shuttle::
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
*CO*: Yellowknife to Captain Shras. We are heading out to investigate something on the long range scanners. Will send a report as soon as we can identify it. Yellowknife out.
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
CMO/CEO: Let's hope it's not trouble ladies.
Host CO_Shas says:
*FCO*: Acknowledged Yellowknife. Report your findings and use caution out there.
CEO_Turnbull says:
::chuckles:: FCO: That should intrigue the Captain.
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
CEO: I think the Captain needs a little intrigue. :: laughs out loud ::
CEO_Turnbull says:
::laughs:: FCO: I just hope we don't give him more than he wants.
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
CMO: Let's find something to give him, shall we?
CMO_Kimura says:
::nods and smiles, speeding up the craft a little more::
