USS GENEVA MISSION TRANSCRIPT – 10404.16

Host Jon_ASM says:
10404.16 - The Geneva has been docked at Starbase 245 for the past couple of weeks receiving repairs and waiting for new personel to arrive.
Host Jon_ASM says:
The ship's Executive Officer is still on Vulcan receiving treatment for his 'condition'.
Host Jon_ASM says:
Repairs to the hull are complete and the ship only needs to restart its warp core engine.

CEO_McDowell says:
::in Engineering, shooing all the pestering Starbase loonies out of the room::
CTO_Kizlev says:
::has concluded his Kenjutsu class for the day and is finishing up a solo combat routine that looks more akin to a dance with a sword::
CNS_Wells says:
::Arrives on bridge and gives the chair left of the Captain's a curious look::
CEO_McDowell says:
::sits down in his small chair at the console::
CO_Shras says:
:: walks out of his office to the command chair ::
EO_Valentine says:
::hangs her head down from the upper level of ME:: CEO: Hey Boss! I'm done! ::sing-song voice::
CTO_Kizlev says:
::brings his sword to a fierce overhead chop, then eases it back into its scabbard and heads for the showers to get ready for duty::
CEO_McDowell says:
::looks up... thinking "done with what?":: EO: Good. Prime the injectors and bring the core to cold standby.
EO_Valentine says:
::makes a face:: CEO: Already done, Boss.
CNS_Wells says:
::Sees the Captain arrive from his office:: CO: Is it ok if I sit here? I mean....it's like he should have taken his chair with him, don't you agree, Sir?
CO_Shras says:
*CEO*: Chief how is the Geneva?
CTO_Kizlev says:
::taking a fast sonic shower thinking of the events of his recent "trip" then sets all that aside and decides its best to forget all about it and move on::
CIV_Pierce says:
::Walks onto the Geneva from SB245 and glances around the corridors::
CEO_McDowell says:
::inwardly horrified for a moment... glad no one was switching over the EPS converters at that time:: EO: Uhhh... okay. Check the intermix ratios and standby.
EO_Valentine says:
::nods:: CEO: Okie-dokie! ::trots over to a console::
CTO_Kizlev says:
::swiftly slips into his uniform feeling satisfied that his department is finally organized and ready for anything, then leaves and goes to his office to lock his sword away::
CNS_Wells says:
::Finds it awkward, being on the bridge but, is excited and inspired by it::
Host Jon_ASM says:
ACTION: The Geneva is receiving a subspace hail from Starfleet Command.
CEO_McDowell says:
::hesitantly taps the comm button:: *CO*: Typical Starfleet repair, sir. Rushed, looks good on the outside, but probably hidden bugs. We're preparing for an engine restart. Should be up and ready in about 5 minutes, sir.
CIV_Pierce says:
::starts in one direction and wanders aimlessly while looking for a ship layout::
EO_Valentine says:
::taps quickly on her console:: CEO: Okie-dokie!
CIV_Pierce says:
::looks much like a tourist with her "carry-on" bag::
CTO_Kizlev says:
::is heading down the corridors, his sword wrapped in cloth slung over a gym bag, and spots an officer he's never seen before, studying her trying to remember if he's seen her face from before::
CNS_Wells says:
::Stands watching the Captain speaking with Engineering::
CTO_Kizlev says:
CIV: Excuse me...::looks at her rank collar, then straightens::...sir, can I help you?
CO_Shras says:
*CEO*: Make her ready for travel chief, Shras out
CIV_Pierce says:
::Scratches her head and turns to the CTO:: CTO: Oh hello Lieutenant.  I'm new here.  Would you kindly tell me where I am?  ::Smiles::
CEO_McDowell says:
::looks around, checking output graphs... punches the comm button off:: EO: Okay... Start feeding the core. Increase intermix as the pressure builds. You know the drill...
EO_Valentine says:
::nods:: CEO: Yes Boss. ::types on her console::
Host ADM_Crenshaw says:
ACTION: A console on the bridge seems to beep louder signalling a hail from Starfleet Command.
CO_Shras says:
:: growls something and answer the call ::
Host ADM_Crenshaw says:
ACTION: An image of Admiral Crenshaw appears on the viewscreen.
CO_Shras says:
COM: Captain Shras of the Geneva, how can I serve you?
Host ADM_Crenshaw says:
@COM: CO: Finally, is something wrong with your communication systems, Captain?
FCO_Mikan says:
::arrives on the bridge and takes his place at helm and begins a level 3 diagnostic::
CTO_Kizlev says:
::perks his antennae in her direction, refreshed to see a new face onboard:: CIV: Of course. You seem to have found yourself on deck 8. I was just on my way to deck 14. Do you need to find somewhere in particular?
CEO_McDowell says:
::the core begins to throb and swirl with the trademark blue clouds::
CO_Shras says:
COM: ADM: Sorry Admiral, the bridge is currently understaffed and we are still making preparations for departure
CNS_Wells says:
::Is understanding that we will soon be getting underway. Thinks - How symbolic. Newly repaired ship, new crewman, to replace all we lost and it's my first time on the bridge in my new position and an ensign, at that::
CIV_Pierce says:
CTO: I should probably report to the Captain and XO.  I was actually looking for a turbolift.
CNS_Wells says:
::Views viewscreen::
CEO_McDowell says:
::core goes overboard for a moment... swirling too quickly, and whining fast:: EO: Mai!!! Back off for a moment! An antimatter injector is frozen!
CTO_Kizlev says:
CIV: Follow me, it's this way going left at that intersection just ahead.
EO_Valentine says:
::taps quickly:: CEO: Got it Boss!
CIV_Pierce says:
CTO: All right, lead the way Lieutenant.
Host ADM_Crenshaw says:
@COM: CO: Very good, Captain. Captain Shras, as you know you are to proceed to the Mberayal System. I have ordered the artifact recovered to be sent to your science department. Do not depart from Starbase 245 until you have the artifact on board. It may become useful to you as you investigate its appearance in the Mberayal System.
CTO_Kizlev says:
::smiles at the CIV and gestures her to follow him for a short stroll over to the TL, and stops in front of it:: CIV: After you, sir.
EO_Valentine says:
CEO: Better? ::eats a Twinkie::
CIV_Pierce says:
::Steps into the turbolift:: CTO: Thank you.  By the way, ::Extends her hand:: I'm Lieutenant Evelyn Pierce.
CEO_McDowell says:
::core stabilizes:: EO: Getting there... Wait a few more seconds, and then try the injector again.
CO_Shras says:
COM: ADM: Understood
Host ADM_Crenshaw says:
@COM: CO: Godspeed and good luck. Crenshaw out.
EO_Valentine says:
::looks over her shoulder:: CEO: Boss needs to breathe. Maybe have a Twinkie. ::grins and taps on her console::
Host ADM_Crenshaw says:
ACTION: The image of Admiral Crenshaw disappears and is replaced with the infamous 'End Transmission' logo.
CTO_Kizlev says:
::looks at the hand remember shaking a paw at Utopia Planetia not too long ago:: CIV: Ah, you are indeed the new lieutenant I was briefly informed about. I am Kizlev, the chief tactical officer here. ::calmly shakes her hand saying this::
CEO_McDowell says:
*FCO*: Ronik, take it easy on the upper warp speeds for a while once we're out and about. We've got touchy injectors down here.
FCO_Mikan says:
*CEO*: Understood, Chief. I don't want to hurt this baby any more than you do. ::feral grin::
CIV_Pierce says:
CTO: A pleasure to meet you Lieutenant.  Are you heading to the bridge too?  ::Mentally connects the blue guy with CTO, remembering her assignment as the Claymore's TO so long ago...::
EO_Valentine says:
::grins as Kandeldandel lands on her shoulder and she scratches her feathers absent mindly::
CNS_Wells says:
::Thinks a thought, smiles and takes his proper place.  "The Chair" feels....good::
CTO_Kizlev says:
::enters the TL with Pierce:: CIV: I...um, was heading to deck 14 ::looks at his bag and cloth-bound sword:: , but I should go to the bridge right away as well.
CNS_Wells says:
::Note: The Captain is not a talkative sort::
EO_Valentine says:
<Kandeldandel> ::hoots softly and pecks at Mai's uniform::
CEO_McDowell says:
EO: Breathing... heh. ::looks at the Twinkie on the console next to him... shrugs, hasn't had lunch yet... or breakfast for that matter. Takes a bite, chews... cringes at the overly sweet taste of the cream... stuffs the rest in his mouth::
CNS_Wells says:
::Thought there would be more talk on the bridge....maybe it's me?::
EO_Valentine says:
CEO: Geneva is doing just fine Boss. ::digs in her pockets and pulls out a packet of sour candies::
CO_Shras says:
CNS: Can you see that the artifact is promptly delivered to science lab one?
CIV_Pierce says:
::Nods:: TL: Bridge.  ::Folds her arms behind her back::
CNS_Wells says:
CO: Aye, Sir. And where shall I pick it up?
CO_Shras says:
CNS: That is what you must find....
CEO_McDowell says:
::rolls eyes:: EO: I personally believe that these ships survive the lackluster repair crews on Starbase solely because of how well they're designed when they're built.
EO_Valentine says:
::hands the sour candies to the owl:: Kandeldandel: Take these to Kizlev. Kizlev. Blue-person, not Captain. ::the owl nods and flies off::
CTO_Kizlev says:
::still holding his antennae in her direction, then pulls them back trying to clear his thoughts:: CIV: Might I ask of which department you will be serving in on this ship?
CNS_Wells says:
::Uses console and monitors incoming transports:: CO: Ok I can do that.
EO_Valentine says:
::Grins:: CEO: Too bad Mai didn't get to design this ship much.
CEO_McDowell says:
::outwardly sighs:: EO: Alright... Take the injectors to full capacity. See if we're ready for it...
EO_Valentine says:
::nods:: CEO: Okay! ::types quickly::
CNS_Wells says:
CO: Permission to leave the bridge, Sir.
CO_Shras says:
CNS: Granted
CIV_Pierce says:
::Stares straight ahead:: CTO: I have experience in Science and Tactical but for the most part, I'll be a mission specialist and spread myself around. I got the impression that this would be a... temporary assignment. That's the way it usually is with me.
CNS_Wells says:
::Goes to Turbolift and enters::
CNS_Wells says:
COMPUTER: Computer, Deck 4.
CTO_Kizlev says:
::feels both his ears and antennae twitch at the sound of tactical:: CIV: Temporary? You seem to be quite knowledgeable. Why not apply for a permanent position?
CEO_McDowell says:
::satisfied finally as the core output graphs level off... the blue swirls finally stabilize at their usual mesmerizing pattern::
EO_Valentine says:
::looks up at the CEO:: CEO: Boss is happy?
CNS_Wells says:
::Exits and heads to Cargo bay 1. Arranges to take artifact::
CEO_McDowell says:
::chuckles::
CTO_Kizlev says:
::thinks he may be asking a bit much, then notices the TL start slowing down, almost at the bridge::
CIV_Pierce says:
::Turns to the CTO and offers a small smile:: CTO: Several events and incidents have intervened throughout my career.  We'll see how this assignment goes.
CTO_Kizlev says:
::nods seeing the doors swing open revealing the bridge, and waits for Pierce to exit first::
CO_Shras says:
*CEO*: Status report
CEO_McDowell says:
EO: Alrightee... bring the main EPS net up.
CIV_Pierce says:
::Walks onto the bridge as the TL doors hiss open:: CTO: Thanks again for showing me the way, Lieutenant.
EO_Valentine says:
::types:: CEO
EO_Valentine says:
::types:: CEO: Okay Boss
CEO_McDowell says:
*CO*: Just finishing up, sir. By the time you find your ignition keys, we'll be ready for you to flip the switch.
CTO_Kizlev says:
CIV: It was no trouble at all. ::exits onto the bridge heading over to his station and then tucks his bag and sword away under his console::
CIV_Pierce says:
::Makes her way to the Captain:: CO: Sir, Lieutenant Pierce reporting as ordered.
CNS_Wells says:
::Walks into Cargo bay 1 and...::
Host Jon_ASM says:
ACTION: As the Counselor enters the Cargo Bay he spots the artifact quickly. The vase is a light green in colour and measures 24 inches high and the opening is 12 inches in diameter. The vase has Chinese calligraphy and images of dragons on the side. There also appear to be a series of symbols arranged 3 x 3 on the bottom of the vase.
EO_Valentine says:
<Kandeldandel> ::flies out of an open JT hatch and lands on the CTO's shoulder::
CO_Shras says:
CIV: Ah! Lieutenant! I was told you were joining us
CO_Shras says:
CIV: Welcome aboard
CNS_Wells says:
SELF: Well, not my taste but,....
CTO_Kizlev says:
::taps a few keys on his console checking for ship wide status reports, seeing that is apparently well and ready for transit, save for perhaps engineering, then sees Kandeldandel and pets her:: Owl: Ah, how are you?
CNS_Wells says:
SELF: Sure is creating a stir.
CIV_Pierce says:
CO: Thank you sir.  If it's all right with you sir, I'd like to begin my duties as soon as possible.
EO_Valentine says:
<Kandeldandel> ::hoots softly and pecks at the packet in her talons::
CNS_Wells says:
::Picks up the object.....carefully..... and looks it over::
CO_Shras says:
CIV: Please, remind me of your occupation
CTO_Kizlev says:
::gestures to the owl to perch itself on his forearm, wondering at the same time about what Mai may be up to down in ME::
CNS_Wells says:
::Picks up the vase and begins making his way to Science Lab 1::
EO_Valentine says:
<Kandeldandel> ::walks from his shoulder down to his arm::
CIV_Pierce says:
CO: This is my first assignment back in the fleet since... well it's been nearly a year sir.  I've been assigned as a mission specialist.  The duration of my assignment here is currently in the air.
CNS_Wells says:
::Once on the Turbolift:: COMPUTER: Deck 7.
EO_Valentine says:
<Kandeldandel> ::stands on one foot to pick up the packet with her beak and drops it on his console::
CTO_Kizlev says:
::fascinated how intelligent this avian is, then gently lowers his forearm to the edge of his console so that Kandeldandel can free up his arm so he can work::
CO_Shras says:
CIV: and what is your specialty?
CTO_Kizlev says:
::gazes down at the packet and examines it::
CIV_Pierce says:
CO: Tactical, Strategic Operations, and Science sir.
EO_Valentine says:
<Kandeldandel> ::hops down and appears to look over his console::
CEO_McDowell says:
*FCO*: We're at hot standby. We're ready to pull out of the parking lot when you're ready.
CNS_Wells says:
::Exits TL, carrying vase and enters Science Lab 1::
FCO_Mikan says:
*CEO*: Acknowledged Chief. ::turns to the CO:: CO: Captain, engineering reports ready for departure.
CO_Shras says:
CIV: Good....we will need you in the science lab with the artifact
CO_Shras says:
FCO: Contact the CNS and see if he found the artifact
CNS_Wells says:
::Looks around but sees no one::
CO_Shras says:
CIV: You are dismissed, unless you have more...
CIV_Pierce says:
::Can't help but notice the owl hopping from console to console::
FCO_Mikan says:
CO: Aye sir. *CNS*: Counselor, have you located the artifact?
CIV_Pierce says:
::slightly distracted:: CO: Ah... yes sir.  I'll head to the science lab immediately.
CTO_Kizlev says:
::his antennae pick up a strong, yet familiar scent of those sour candies he got from Mai before, and smiles:: Kandeldandel: Thank you. Self: I must give Mai my thanks for this when time permits. Ah, I know. ::writes a quick thank-you text note to Mai on his console and sends it off to her, slipping in a high priority rating on it just for fun::
CNS_Wells says:
::Doesn't feel it would be responsible to leave it here unwatched.  Wonders where Mr. Tunik is? No security? Certainly the Captain has issued orders::
CNS_Wells says:
*FCO*: Yes, Sir. We are here in the Science Lab.
EO_Valentine says:
<Kandeldandel> ::tilts her head up at Kizlev and nods::
FCO_Mikan says:
*CNS*: Acknowledged. ::turns to the CO:: CO: Sir, the Counselor has the artifact in the science lab.
CIV_Pierce says:
::Turns on her heel and makes her way back to the Turbolift::  TL: Um... Science Lab... please.
CNS_Wells says:
::Thinks - They know it's here and where I am::
EO_Valentine says:
<Kandeldandel> ::watches the CIV and lands on her shoulder as the TL doors close::
CO_Shras says:
FCO: Initiate startup sequence and undocking procedures
CNS_Wells says:
::I'll stay here with it...sure is a odd looking thing....wonder what the Chinese writing says::
CTO_Kizlev says:
CO: Lieutenant Kizlev reporting in, sir. Security states they are ready and that the ship is fully rigged for departure.
CNS_Wells says:
::Would like to use the science stuff to scan the vase and tell what it says::
FCO_Mikan says:
CO: Aye sir. ::runs final pre-departure sequences:: COM: SB245: This is the Geneva, requesting permission to depart.
CO_Shras says:
CTO: Good
CIV_Pierce says:
::Freezes as the bird lands on her shoulder:: Self: I've dealt with Romulans, possessed ambassadors, and demons before... what do I do now?
CTO_Kizlev says:
::was able to get one last look at Pierce before she left, thinking that she might be happier in a gold shirt rather than a blue one::
EO_Valentine says:
<Kandeldandel> ::hoots softly and tilts her head::
Host SB_OPS says:
@COM: Geneva: FCO: Permission granted.
CIV_Pierce says:
::Looks at the owl and tilts her head too:: Kandeldandel: Hello there little buddy.
FCO_Mikan says:
COM: *SB_OPS*: Acknowledged. Now detaching umbilicals. ::touches his console the "pop" of the umbilical can be heard through the ship's hull::
EO_Valentine says:
<Kandeldandel> ::nods and walks around in a circle::
FCO_Mikan says:
*CEO*: Chief, we are now on ship's power and ready to leave.
CTO_Kizlev says:
::glances at his console, reading the torpedo compliments, and is very upset that his request for a Q-2 quantum warhead load out was denied by Starbase Ops::
CNS_Wells says:
::Thinks - How did this vase get way out here?::
FCO_Mikan says:
::eases the Geneva from the SB using thrusters::
CTO_Kizlev says:
::sighs, thinking that photons will simply have to do for now and wonders if he should take this issue to the captain himself next time::
FCO_Mikan says:
::turns to the CO:: CO: Now leaving the docking bay sir. We are underway. ::turns back to his console::
CIV_Pierce says:
::Steps out as the TL arrives, owl and all::  Kandeldandel:  I hope you're potty trained.
EO_Valentine says:
<Kandeldandel> ::nods and hoots softly::
CO_Shras says:
FCO: Set course for the Mberayal System and engage at warp 6
FCO_Mikan says:
CO: We are crossing the outer markers sir. Course laid in. ::taps his console and engages the warp engines:: *CEO*: Chief, we will be traveling at warp 6.
CIV_Pierce says:
::Smiles and touches the panel to open the Science Lab:: Kandeldandel: Glad to hear it.
CNS_Wells says:
VASE: Guess you got a story to tell.  
Host SB_OPS says:
ACTION: The Geneva goes into warp 6 without a hitch.
CTO_Kizlev says:
Self: It's good to be back to work again. ::shaking his head trying to put out any further thoughts of Omicron or his friend Jakuharrr::
