USS Sharikahr NCC-81204
Stardate 10604.13

Mission #249

Over the past year, the Sharikahr has been plagued with crew changes left and right. After having successfully rescued the a majority of the Don Johnson's Senior Staff, the Sharikahr was asked to report to Satrbase 310 where they would speak with Admiral Garrison regarding their performance.

Fortunately, Rear Admiral Davis-Patterson decided to report to Starbase 310 in order to brief the Senior Staff. However, Lieutenant Rodos Falor was rather worried that he would face a reprimand due to the Sharikahr's failure to save the Saber Tooth itself. The Second Officer did need to worry, but for another reason.

The Senior Staff was ordered to report to Conference Room C on Starbase 310 once they docked, with the addition of Commander Elisha Irvin. Once they had reached the Conference Room, Admiral Patterson greeted them and had them take their seats.

Many changes then started to take place. Captain Horn had been reassigned from the Sharikahr and sent to work under Starfleet Intelligence. Because of this, the Sharikahr was in need of a new Commanding and Executive Officer, which Admiral Patterson promised to rectify.

Even though Commander Irvin did not wish to be present at this meeting, he served a major role. Irvin was promoted to the rank of Captain and Commanding Officer of the Sharikahr. His last position, Chief Engineering Officer aboard the Don Johnson, was temporary until Starfleet Command could make better use of his skills.

The Sharikahr was just the place for that.

Lieutenant Rodos Falor was promoted to Executive Officer, with the warning that he would be watched closely by the Admiral. In addition to this, Counselor Millicent Rodos was promoted to the Second Officer position.

These were not the only promotions! Lieutenant J.G. Logan Cartwright was promoted to Lieutenant for his superb performance in duties as Chief Medical Officer aboard the Sharikahr. Lieutenant Sin So'tosh was also awarded an Admiral's Letter of Commendation for her superior performance in duties as well.

With all of these promotions came the announcement of a new crew member, Ensign Brianna Rochelle, who would fill the role as a Support Officer. This meant that she would serve in whatever department needed and also use her joint Starfleet Intelligence status to help when needed.

The crew were then granted three days of Shore Leave before they were to report back to the Cardassian Border to continue their mission orders: to stop any rouge Federation vessels from entering the Cardassian system. This is where we rejoin our crew, preparing to depart from Starbase 310.

Will the Sharikahr succeed? Will Doctor Cartwright spill a milk shake on the new Commanding Officer? Will the new Command Staff serve the Sharikahr well?

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::while waiting, finishes compiling her report on the two sets of debris::

Host VADM_Illiak says:
@COM: Sharikahr: CO: Greetings, Captain. I take it the Sharikahr is preparing to disembark toward the Cardassian Border? ::the Deltan man took a sip from his glass of blue liquid::

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
::steps onto the bridge and walks over to SC2, sipping his milkshake::

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
::remaining at her station just swivels her chair around to face the rest of the bridge crew.:: All: I guess we'll be remaining at station keeping a while longer.  Please notify all departments.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
COM: VADM: Aye Sir...  However we have been denied clearance to begin de-docking procedure...  I don't guess you would know anything about this would you?

Host VADM_Illiak says:
@COM: Sharikahr: CO: Very astute, Captain. As a matter of fact, I wanted to catch you before the Sharikahr did leave. I've taken the liberty to change your orders a bit.

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::makes his way into engineering:: EO: Dag, how are things down here?

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
::smiles at the FCO::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
COM: VADM: Due respect admiral... Any change in our orders is going to have to be cleared through Admiral Patterson....   She's not likely to be very happy with this....

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
COM: VADM: Not to mention that our orders are cryptic as it is.

EO_Dag says:
::straightens up:: XO: Just fine, sir. We have everything under control.

Host VADM_Illiak says:
@COM: Sharikahr: CO: As you may have noticed, I outrank the Admiral due to my position with Starfleet Intelligence. ::watches him:: CO: Now, what I'm about to tell you is classified for the time being. Do you understand, Captain? If not, I will find a Captain who can to take on this assignment with the Sharikahr. ::speaks sternly::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
COM: VADM: Permission to speak frankly...   'sir'..... 

Host VADM_Illiak says:
@COM: Sharikahr: CO: Permission denied, Captain. You will complete the assignment I have assigned. Is that understood?

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
*sighs* COM: VADM: Clearly Sir.....   

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
EO: Good. And you'll be fine in case of emergency?

Host VADM_Illiak says:
@COM: Sharikahr: CO: The Sharikahr is to enter the Cardassian Border once you have arrived. It is believed that the Red Allegiance is working with the Cardassian Eleventh Order. It seems they are working in an attempt to re-take their proper place in their order as well as assist the Allegiance in accomplishing their goals.

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
::looks at her Husband:: CMO: Everything okay down below?

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::reconfigures the secondary tactical station to function as an emergency override console, since ensign Smith is rather ill... must of been the shrimp from last night's dinner::

ACTION: Power aboard the Sharikahr begins to fluctuate on and off.

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
FCO: Everything is squared away in sickbay and right with the universe as far as I'm concerned. ::raises his shake::

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::looks up::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::looks up as she is about to send her report::

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
EO: I thought you said everything was under control.

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
::notes the power fluctuations:: *Engineering*:  What is going on down there?

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::blinks, looking up as well::

CIV_Ens_B_Rochelle says:
*CEO*: I am getting fluctuations on the power here.  Anything I need to know about?

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::approaches the master systems display:: *FCO*: Looking at it now, Commander... give me a sec.

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
::looks at the CIV:: CIV: Ms. Rochelle.  Trace that.

Host VADM_Illiak says:
@COM: Sharikahr: CO: You are to meet the Cardassian Galor Class Warship Dekot, where you will investigate this matter in a hopes to find out what these two 'allies' are doing and stop them anyway possible.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::moves around to his chair::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::flinches as the lights dim in the ready room a bit::

CIV_Ens_B_Rochelle says:
FCO: Tracing it now sir. ::hands move swiftly over her console::

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
::chuckles.:: *XO*: You just can't get away from there can you?

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
*sigh* COM: VADM: I assume they know we're coming...   I'd hate to be the instegator of interstellar war based on your orders alone sir....   respectfuly....

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
*FCO*: Of course not.. my favourite spot on the ship. ::smiles:: I *am* picking up a virus in the computer... attempting to contain it.

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
Bridge: Ensure all your systems are backed up just in case.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::hits the send button on the report::

Host VADM_Illiak says:
@COM: Sharikahr: CO: Yes, they know you are coming, Captain. Once you arrive you are to transmit an encrypted Cardassian Code, which I'm transmitting now. That will let the Cardassians know you have been granted clearance. Is that understood?

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
::finishes his milkshake and disposes of it::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
COM: VADM: Yes Sir...   ::downloads the code to the center seat memory bank::

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
CSO: Lt So'tsoh, I thought you had already taken care of a computer virus.

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
*XO*: Acknowledged.  Anything we need to do up here?

Host VADM_Illiak says:
@COM: Sharikahr: CO: You are to stop these allies if you can and work with the Cardassians. They are in charge of this mission. Is that clear?

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
FCO: I had the virus contained and had written a program to eradicate it.  Apparently some part of it was able to remain and replicate itself.  :: Hands dancing along the console tracing the virus.::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::looks around the bridge, noting Amber in command and... hm, well, it's good enough:: FCO: Security teams are in place, Commander. Just in case, you know.

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
*FCO*: I don't think so, I should be able to contain it down here. See if Lt. So'tsoh can give me a hand from up there.

ACTION: The lights dim several more times. Suddenly, Main Engineering becomes completely black except for the lighting from the Warp Core.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
COM: VADM: Aye....  Quite...   What is our directive concerning Federation collateral Admiral....   

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::smacks the console:: Self: Damn it! ::rushes to a nearby TL and orders it back to the bridge::

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
~~~FCO: Never a dull moment here.~~~

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
::nods to the CSO:: *XO*: You got it Falor, she's here.

Host VADM_Illiak says:
@COM: Sharikahr: CO: You are to do what you have to, Captain. If the Red Allegiance and Cardassian Eleventh Order is working together, I want their alliance shattered.

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
CIV: Shut down all non-essential systems and notify the starbase we'll be staying a bit longer because of this glitch.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::taps com badge and whispers::  *Bridge*: I don't know what is, but it better be fixed in the next 15 seconds...  ::taps badge off::

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
::looks at the CMO:: CMO: Never. ::smiles::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::listening, she pulls up the ships blue prints and begins to highlight areas the virus has moved to::

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
::grins back at his wife and winks at her::

CIV_Ens_B_Rochelle says:
::hands swiftly moving across her console making attempts to contain the virus::

CIV_Ens_B_Rochelle says:
FCO: Already on it sir.

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::steps off the TL and heads for the Engineering station:: FCO: Engineering's completely blacked out, I'll work from up here.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
COM: VADM: Very Well...  If there is nothing else sir.....   ::waits::

ACTION: The CSO's console suddenly powers down. A picture of a large yellow smiley face appears with a red tongue sticking out.

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::sits at the Engineering station and begins tracing the virus::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
*CO*: Captain, the virus was a present from the Saber Tooth.  Its main purpose appears to be powering down systems. And... ::sighs at the image on her screen::

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
*CO*: Captain, we are working on it with Mr. Rodos leading the Engineering team on the glitch.

Host VADM_Illiak says:
@COM: Sharikahr: CO: Nothing, Captain. Enjoy your first mission. Illiak out. ::cuts the comm::

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
XO: Falor, the new Captain isn't happy. He says you have 15 seconds.

CIV_Ens_B_Rochelle says:
*COM*: SB 310: This is the USS Sharikahr.  We have a small glitch and will be remaining for a little while longer.

ACTION: All consoles around the Sharikahr power down and the controls are replaced with the same smiley face.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::rolls eyes and returns to the bridge::  

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::sighs::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
CO: It would appear the creator was a joker.  It's nature is relatively simple, but it has a complex restructuring code which is why it is proving hard to eradicate.  ::stands up and moves to the auxiliary console::

CIV_Ens_B_Rochelle says:
Self: Oh this is not good at all.  And it is a nasty one at that.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::notices that the bridge is mostly dark and there are lots of smileys on the consoles::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
All: Jesus...   Report....   

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
CO: Don't worry, be happy... Captain. ::smiles at his little joke::

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
CO: Sickbay is okay.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::frowns:: XO: Not funny Mr. Rodos....  

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::blinks, and... blinks again:: CO: Apparently someone has a sense of humor.

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
::quickly turns back to her console, extremely pleased that Falor is back to bear the brunt of the CO's anger::

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
CO: I'm on it. ::taps combadge:: *EO*: Dag, have an engineering team meet me in the main computer bay. Rodos out.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
CO: Sir... I will be going down to the computer core.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
XO: Hold it Mr. Rodos....   Let's fix this and go....

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CSO: Lieutenant...  Would I be correct in assuming that it is only affecting the short term memory bank....

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::pauses and looks at the CO::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::stands and waits for an answer::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::considers:: CO: Given it is going throughout all the systems, I do not believe so.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::moves to the center seat:: FCO: Clear all moorings and stand by.  

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
XO: Mr. Rodos...  As soon as the moorings and external support are offline...  Power down all systems...  Take us completely black

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
XO: Life support and the computer core too.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::curiously:: CO: You are familiar with what we are dealing with?

ACTION: Red Alert sounds throughout the ship.

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
CO: Aye sir. ::taps combadge:: *EO*: Rodos to Engineering... prepare to power down all systems. Repeat, power down ALL systems.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::sits:: CSO: I don't have the faintest idea...   CEO's rule #183...  When in doubt...   Reboot....  

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
::tries not to laugh at the situation::

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
CO: Sir you want us to drift with no power while in dock?

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::humor dances in her eyes::  CO: Interesting.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
FCO: Emergency dock tractors should hold us in place if we set off any proximity alerts....  

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
~~~CMO: I'm so glad I'm not Falor!~~~

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::takes a seat and curiously waits to see what happens::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CIV: Ms. Rochelle...  Notify the dock master of our plan

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
CO: Captain, with all main consoles offline, emergency dock tractors aren't going to be an issue... we won't be launching.

ACTION: A message appears on the FCO's console "Suckers"

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
~~~FCO: I kind of understand that right now.~~~

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
CO: Shall we begin shutting down all systems, Captain?

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::looks to the CTO::  CTO: The idea is to bring the systems back up after Lieutenant...  ::smiles curtly::  Calm yourself...

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
:uses the manual controls to release the moorings,etc.::  CO: We're free, well sort of.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
XO: Yes...   Go for it.

SB_OPS says:
#COM: Sharikahr: Sharikahr this is Starbase 310. We are reading some interesting power allocations throughout your ship. What's going on?

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
All: Oh and by the way my console says we're a bunch of "Suckers"

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
*EO*: Engineering, power down all systems.

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
::laughs out loud::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::taps combadge::  COM: SB310: Stand by...   We're rectifying the problem now...   Stand by on emergency dock tractor systems in case we start to drift into the landing...   
SB_OPS says:
#COM: Sharikahr: Understood. We'll keep you stabilized.

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
~~~CMO: Aren't you glad now that I didn't get promoted?~~~

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::shrugs, and initiates a manual restart of tactical systems::

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
~~~FCO: I guess so, since you are.~~~

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
::smiles glad that Logan is laughing, knowing it is just what he needs::

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
CMO: Doctor Cartwright, aren't you glad you're not in a turbolift right now?

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
XO: As soon as we're black...  Count to 10 and power us back up....   

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
FCO: Extremely.

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
~~~CMO~~~: Unless it was just the two of us?~~~  ::gives him a seductive kind of glance::

ACTION: The Sharikahr powers down completely. Everything is pitch black... blacker than black.

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
~~~FCO: That could be fun.~~~ ::walks over to the replicator and tries to get another Chocolate Milkshake::

CIV_Ens_B_Rochelle says:
::waits patiently::

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
All: Welcome to the dark side of the Sharikahr.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::listens to the sound of consoles powering off, and cringes at the strange kind of silence, aside from the crew's voices:: All: I do *not* want to be on a ship this quiet in space. Ever. ::smirks::

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
XO: Isn't it when the sun goes down and it gets dark outside the party starts?

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
FCO: True, but how can you party in this kind of darkness?

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
XO: Okie Lieutenant...   Bring us back up....

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
CO: Aye, sir. ::taps combadge:: *EO*: Engineering, power the ship back up, one system at a time.

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
::smacks the replicator a few times::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::thinks to himself:: First one to find the scotch in my quarters gets to know what a real party is.

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
XO: You use touch Falor, you use touch.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::smiles::  XO: We don't have time for that...   Emergency Restart...   

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
*EO*: Belay that order... power everything back up.

ACTION: Power is restored to the Sharikahr. Everything seems to be back to normal. The virus cannot be found in the ship's systems.

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
CSO: Status on the virus?

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::turns around:: CSO: As soon as the bridge subprocessor comes back up, reload all operational data from the archive....   
FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
All: Awww!  All the fun shapes are gone. ::frowns::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
CO: Aye sir...

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
XO: One moment sir...

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
::orders another milkshake and heads back to his seat::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::waits for his consoles to come back online, and reestablishes his uplink::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::turns to check for the virus::  XO: I am finding no trace of the virus in the system.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
CO: A rule to remember sir.

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::smiles:: CSO: Well, that's good news.

CIV_Ens_B_Rochelle says:
::hands fly over the console::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::smiles contently::  CSO: Noted Lieutenant..  Thank you for keeping me patient....  

SB_OPS says:
#COM: Sharikahr: Sharikahr, what is the status of your systems?

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::pulls up the ships computers archival records and begins to download operational systems::

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
::smiles seeing Logan with another milkshake:: CMO: Are you breaking the rules?  ::said very acquisitively::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::hits the com button on his chair::  COM: SB310: We're back in business...  Request permission to de-dock...   

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::takes his seat and turns to his console, working it and scanning the ships systems::

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
::shrugs:: FCO: Depends.

SB_OPS says:
#COM: Sharikahr: CO: Permission granted, Captain. Good luck.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
COM: SB310: Sharikahr Acknowledges...   

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::reruns his diagnostic routines, verifying everything finally works... perfectly::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
XO: Mr Rodos...  Status of the drive systems....

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
::moves the ship on thruster power out of the airlock once the SB releases the tractors::

CIV_Ens_B_Rochelle says:
CO: My  diagnostic of my console comes back at 100% operational sir.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::crosses legs in the chair, and pulls up the secret Cardassian code onto a hot key on the left arm rest::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
CO/XO: All systems appear to be online.

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
CO: Everything is in working order. We're ready to set out.

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
CO: What speed do you want to the Cardie's border? ::brings the ship about::

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
::sips his milkshake then begins to hum a song from the Wizard of Oz::

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::feels a bit nervous heading to Cardassian territory, knowing the history of them around Bajorans::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::feels a little nervous heading back to the cardassian border, for a whole other reason entirely::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::turns around to watch::

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
::brings up the course she previously set onto the viewer:: CO: Sir course is set we just need a speed and the order to go.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
FCO: Ahead Warp Four...   

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::could really use a coffee, but knowing his luck he'd leave the bridge and the ship would explode::

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::wonders where Millie is... and hopes she's okay::

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
::prepares to jump to warp 4:: CO: Aye sir. ::a bit confused sound in her voice.:: *Engineering*: We're going straight to warp 4 standby.

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
::continues to hum "Ding Dong the Witch is Gone"::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::leans forward:: FCO: As soon as we are clear the perimeter...  Execute.... 

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
::Manoeuvres out of range of the starbase to the warp acceptable line and engages the course for the Cardassian border at warp 4.::

ACTION: The Sharikahr clears the Starbase and is brought to Warp 4 without any problems.

CIV_Ens_B_Rochelle says:
Self: So far so good.  Hope it stays like that.

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
CO: Captain, I am not a new pilot.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::turns around after a moment and puts sensors on long range::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::chuckles::  FCO: So you're not Ms. Cartwright...   I stand admonished...   ::gets up::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::begins his long range tactical scans... Cardassians just don't do much for his comfort level--thank you, Prism::

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
~~~FCO: Lets have a baby.~~~

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
XO: Mr. Rodos you have the bridge...  

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
CO: MRS.  ::Points to her pips and her wedding ring.::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CSO: So'tsoh...   Would you join me in my ready room please?

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
::turns to the CMO:: CMO: What!?

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
CO: Aye, Captain.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::nods and stands to join the Captain::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::enters the ready room::

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::raises an eyebrow at the FCO:: FCO: Is there a problem, Amber?

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::sees Sin get up, and takes over monitoring science sensors in her absence::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::stands at attention as the door closes behind her::

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::takes a seat in the command chair::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::sits on corner of desk::  CSO: At ease Lieutenant...  

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
::smiles at the FCO and shrugs::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::moves to parade rest, watching him curiously::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
XO: Belated congratulations are in order, I believe... sir. ::winks::

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
::eyes dart back and forth between Logan and Falor:: XO: Um No.  ~~~CMO: Can we talk about this later?~~~

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CSO: I need a favor from you...  

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
CO: Captain?

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::turns and looks at the CTO:: CTO: Thanks, Lieutenant.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CSO: Ordinarily I would not ask this of someone on my first day on the bridge...  But I find myself in a difficult place...  

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
~~~FCO: Sure.~~~ ::flashes her a grin::

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
FCO: What is our ETA, Commander?

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::nods, encouraging him to continue::

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
::turns back to her console and checks the ETA::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CSO: I understand that you are a...  for lack of a better description....   a "co-worker" of Admiral Harlan's.....   

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
XO: Pass the congrats on to Millie when you see her, could you? I'm sure she feels like hell. ::smiles slightly, knowing Falor caught his meaning::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::blinks::

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
::seeming very flustered for no reason:: XO: Um, um, um 8 yeah 8 minutes. ::tries to get her composure after Logan's bombshell of a request::

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::stands up and approaches the FCO::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CSO: Don't worry....   I know her and I know about her alignment with SFI...   It's in your file too for Captain's eyes only.

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::speaks quietly:: FCO: Is everything okay?

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
CO: Harlan is not with SFI, sir... though she may let others think that.  But please, continue...

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
XO: Um yeah.  I'm fine. I'm sorry I was a bit distracted but I'm fine now. ::tries to convince him and herself that she is no longer flustered::

CIV_Ens_B_Rochelle says:
::doesn't dare let her mind lose as it would violate all the laws she swore to uphold but is curious about what is going on::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CSO: I need you to contact her on a secure channel...  Don't tell anyone about it...  I need to know who the hell Vice Admiral Illiak is and if he in fact has the authority to countermand the orders of Admiral Crenshaw and the Sector Commander...  

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::smiles:: FCO: Very well.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
CO: I can do that sir.

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::re-takes his seat::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CSO: Thank you Lieutenant...   Be very discreet about it...  

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
CTO: Prepare to do a systematic scan of the area as soon as we drop out of warp.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
CO: In that, you need not worry, sir.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
XO: Already prepared, lieutenant. Cardassians give me the creeps.

FCO_LtCmdr_Cartwright says:
XO: But I do need to talk to Millie.

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::nods:: CTO: Understood.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CSO: I am grateful Lieutenant...   Dismissed....

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::with a nod, turns to leave::

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::smiles:: FCO: Perhaps she'll join us later.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::walks out and sits in the center seat, crossing legs::
