Host XO_Keorn says:
::adjusts in seat as he remembers the last time he was at a sector meeting, while onboard the Scimitar::

Host FAdm_Holowhed says:
ALL: Recently, the Starbase 412 Sphere of Influence came under duress, with the return of the USS Opeongo. ::looks around into the crowd... doesn't see... frowns:: Unfortunately, I have not received the final reports from Triton's Command Staff, so it is a shock, but I am going to ask their Executive Commander to come up and give a quick rundown.

Host XO_Keorn says:
::stands uncertainly and approaches the podium::

Host XO_Keorn says:
ALL: It is not a simple situation to sum up but I will try, please remember I have had no preparation time for this.

SO_Weaver says:
::Tilts his head to one side and watches the large Klingon make his way to the podium, smiling slightly::

CEO_Jarek says:
:: Does not need reminding of the Opeongo encounter::

CNS_Mrai says:
CEO: ~~~ this should be good ~~~~ ::cocks head towards the podium quickly::

CTO_Miaek says:
::thinks to himself, this should be interesting::

Host FAdm_Holowhed says:
::sighs as he steps aside from the microphone... notes to chew out VAdm Hafbekd for holding over the CO meeting::

Host XO_Keorn says:
ALL: We followed the Opeongo across the sector using a faint subspace trail as a guide.  We had only three actual encounters with it.

CIV_Knote says:
Self: Typical Fleet rear echelon pough doesn't even know what's going on.

CEO_Jarek says:
CNS:~~~ Indeed ~~~  We were a little to close to that mission ~~~

CNS_Mrai says:
CEO: ~~~~ we better watch it we may be next ~~~~  :: shudders ::

CSO_Nash says:
:: shudders at the thought of having to relive  what the Shadowman did to him mentally::

CEO_Jarek says:
CNS: ~~~ Doubtful ~~~

Host XO_Keorn says:
ALL: On the first we got better than we gave but we learned much.  What we learned we put to use on the second engagement  where we used a multi vector attack utilizing computer attacks and psychic attacks as well as conventional ones.

CNS_Mrai says:
CEO: ~~~~  Ummm who had more contact with it besides us ~~~~

CEO_Jarek says:
CNS:~~~ Physically........ Noone  ~~~

SO_Weaver says:
::Makes a mental note to check on his departmental report once they return to the ship;  looks down at his PADD::

Host XO_Keorn says:
ALL: during the second attack we were attacked by a new weapon the Opeongo showed us.  A subspace tunneling device.  Fortunately we were able to redirect it using a graviton beam and adverted a anti-matter explosion that would have torn us apart.

CIV_Knote says:
::Wonders why Keorn doesn't just send the Admiral a copy of the reports and they could all go bar hopping::

CSO_Nash says:
:: Swears that everything was properly sent:: Self: :mutters under his breath:: What happened to those confoundit reports?

CIV_Knote says:
::Glances over his shoulder to see if he recognizes any other officers::

Host XO_Keorn says:
ALL: On this encounter we were assailed by another weapon from the Opeongo, the ShadowMan had picked up a race of primitive beings that were telepathically capable.  He used their power and his own to attack our new shields our CEO had developed.

SO_Weaver says:
::Starts to mentally prepare sections of his duty log, reading the report on his PADD as the XO speaks::

Host FAdm_Holowhed says:
::listening... taking notes... especially notes the crews' unrest... wouldn't have happened if that CO meeting hadn't held over::

CIV_Knote says:
::Nods to a staff officer that looks familiar::

Host XO_Keorn says:
ALL: The Shadowman dropped off the natives and tried to disengage.  We had disabled his warp core and forced him to eject it, so he was not able to go to warp and had to rely on his subspace travel.  We followed him in and held on for a ride.

Host FAdm_Holowhed says:
<VAdm_Sourpuss> ::sees Mr. Knote look at him... gasps, takes a deep breath, then looks back to his PADD quickly::

CIV_Knote says:
::plans to ask that staff pough to go to a bar and see what he will say "off the record"::

Host XO_Keorn says:
ALL; Somehow we were forced out of the subspace corridor at the same time as the Opeongo.  So we were far behind it.  We had readings of it in two directions and headed to intercept it attacking a nearby ship.  Unfortunately this was a ruse put up by the Opeongo.  It was actually at the shipyards.

SO_Weaver says:
::Glances around and notes that only about half of the officers are actually paying attention.  Grins to himself and looks back down at his PADD::

Host FAdm_Holowhed says:
<CO_Snoozer> ::has long since dozed off... ::

Host XO_Keorn says:
ALL: We arrived in time to see the Opeongo finish off the base there and turn to face us with only one message.  "Your Next!"  We immediately took an aggressive posture and launched our attacks.  We couldn't anticipate what the next thing the Opeongo or the Shadowman would do.  They somehow took control of the ships in the shipyards and were

CEO_Jarek says:
::Looks around to make sure Triton Officers are paying attention::

CIV_Knote says:
::Turns back around with a grin at the shock on VAdm Sourpuss' face::

Host FAdm_Holowhed says:
<Adm_Wheezer> ::starts coughing loudly... ::

SO_Weaver says:
::Thought briefly that he heard someone snoring, but shrugs it off and continues reading::

CNS_Mrai says:
:: looks around sees everybody nodding off except for the triton crew who are all fidgeting around:: Self: would he just hurry up so we can all stop remembering what the ship and man did too us..

Host XO_Keorn says:
ALL: directing them at us.  We concentrated our efforts on the Opeongo and made some small holes in the shields and delivered the CMO's weapon, a biological weapon designed to attack the gel-packs on the Opeongo.

CIV_Knote says:
::Wonders what part the "package" he had helped deliver played in all this::

Host FAdm_Holowhed says:
<Adm_Wheezer> ::really is hacking loudly now... excuses himself to go outside the room::

OPS_Regin says:
::still sitting perfectly still::

Host FAdm_Holowhed says:
ACTION: A rather loud room comm beep is heard

SO_Weaver says:
::Wishes he had something to throw at that snoring Admiral, but again ignores it and continues reading, making a few notes for his log on the PADD::

CSO_Nash says:
:: Accesses his PADD and sends a copy of the report to the FAdm's computer::

CIV_Knote says:
::Jumps at the noise::

Host FAdm_Holowhed says:
::raises head... growls:: Comm: Whoever: Yes?

SO_Weaver says:
::Head perks up, looks around for the source of the COMM indication::

CEO_Jarek says:
:: Readies to listen to the COMM::

Host XO_Keorn says:
ALL: We fitted them into some probes.  We were able to launch and impact two of the weapons on the Opeongo and it appeared to have the desired effect

Host FAdm_Holowhed says:
<The_Voice> COMM: FAdm: Sorry to interrupt sir. Commander, Sector 10009 is on encrypted channel 30 for you privately.

CNS_Mrai says:
:: perks up as the Room COMM goes off ::

CTO_Miaek says:
::hopes this might be getting to an end::

Host FAdm_Holowhed says:
::mumbles... looks around and notices half the room has gone off mentally to other things... not surprised:: All: Well, as usually happens around here at HQ, this meeting is cut short. I don't expect that many of you will be crying agony. Enjoy the rest of the time on Earth before you head back to your ships. Thank you.

Host XO_Keorn says:
Adm: Uh Yes sir

OPS_Regin says:
::sighs, thinks: Just when it was getting interesting::

CTO_Miaek says:
::nudges OPS::

CIV_Knote says:
::shifts in seat; prepared to stand::

Host XO_Keorn says:
::looks confused as he hadn't finished::

SO_Weaver says:
::Sighs at the abrupt end and closes his PADD, waiting to see where the Admiral goes before standing from his chair::

OPS_Regin says:
::nudges the CTO back::

CEO_Jarek says:
:: Stands and waits for the XO::

CNS_Mrai says:
Self: Wonder what thetas about ??

CIV_Knote says:
::turns off the PADD::

Host FAdm_Holowhed says:
::tries to get up from his seat... stumbles back when he does from tired legs... walks over... mumbles in XO's ear:: XO: Sorry about that. You doing this is the fault of another Admiral here. Nice job, though, Commander.

CSO_Nash says:
Self: I wonder if I'll have time to make a side trip to see Mom?

CIV_Knote says:
::Stands and tries to make his way over to VAdm Sourpuss::

Host XO_Keorn says:
::whispers:: Adm: thank you sir.

SO_Weaver says:
::Casually stands and walks for the exit, "accidentally" nudging the sleeping Admiral Snoozer on his way by::

Host FAdm_Holowhed says:
<VAdm_Sourpuss> ::feels a presence coming... tries to grab his PADDs quickly and look like he's making a busy and important exit, but fails::

CTO_Miaek says:
::stands up stretching tired legs::

OPS_Regin says:
::stands up::  CTO: That was informative

CEO_Jarek says:
:: Walks towards the XO::

OPS_Regin says:
::stifles a yawn::

CIV_Knote says:
::Sees that VAdm Sourpuss tries to evade him and steps to his side at the door::

CNS_Mrai says:
:: stands up, looks around ::

CEO_Jarek says:
XO: Is everything ok sir

Host XO_Keorn says:
::steps down off dais and rejoins crew::

CTO_Miaek says:
OPS: to say the least

CSO_Nash says:
:: Stands to get his legs to wake up::

CIV_Knote says:
VAdm: Care to join me in a drink Admiral?  ::Gives him a significant look::

Host XO_Keorn says:
All: appears our meeting is cut short by other matters

Host FAdm_Holowhed says:
::breathes in...annoyed:: CIV: Excuse me Mr. Knote. It is good to see you again, but I *DO* have another meeting and then a transport to catch... ::lying through his teeth::

CIV_Knote says:
<VAdm Sourpuss>

SO_Weaver says:
::Walks back down the corridor and arrives in the transporter room::

CIV_Knote says:
VAdm: I see...then that subject we had discussed before has been resolved and you no longer need my help?

OPS_Regin says:
XO: What next, sir?

CIV_Knote says:
::Looks about to insure they are not being overheard::

Host XO_Keorn says:
Crew: I am heading back to the ship.  I want all departments to have readiness reports in my office by 0800 tomorrow

Host FAdm_Holowhed says:
<VAdm_Sourpuss> ::mentally growls:: CIV: It... Is almost taken care of. Thank you for... your assistance. ::mentally grimaces:: Excuse me. ::tries to push through::

OPS_Regin says:
XO: Yes, sir!

CTO_Miaek says:
XO: Aye Sir

CEO_Jarek says:
XO: May I join you sir. I have work to do on board

CIV_Knote says:
Sourpuss: ::Loud whisper:: Really now! I think we need to discuss it.

Host XO_Keorn says:
Crew: any that wish to come back aboard may accompany me any that wish to remain just remember your reports

Host XO_Keorn says:
::turns and heads to the TR::

CEO_Jarek says:
:: Follows the XO::

OPS_Regin says:
::follows the XO, having a lot to do after taking the time off::

CIV_Knote says:
::Pats his carryall with a meaningful look::

SO_Weaver says:
::Steps up to the tap::  TR Operator:  Back to the Triton. ::waits patiently::

CSO_Nash says:
Self: I believe I'll have time for that trip to Phoenix  then

CTO_Miaek says:
Self:  I guess I need to get back to the ship

SO_Weaver says:
<tap = pad>

CTO_Miaek says:
::walks to the TR::

CSO_Nash says:
XO: Permission to go home and return with my report as ordered

Host FAdm_Holowhed says:

EO_Porter says:
::Decides to go back abroad ship::

CEO_Jarek says:
:: Steps up on the T Pad::

SO_Weaver says:
::Dematerializes and appears on an unfamiliar deck::  Self:  Could've placed me somewhere a bit more convenient...

Host XO_Keorn says:
::moves to the Pad and nods to the operator to energize::

CIV_Knote says:
Sourpuss: I'll be at "the" bar at 0100.  We can talk then.

CTO_Miaek says:
::steps on the pad

CNS_Mrai says:
:: turns around and looks at the corridor’s now where is that histories office at, Mother said it was around here somewhere, wanders off::

CIV_Knote says:
::raises brow to show Sourpuss it would be in his best interest::

::passes someone who looks remarkably like himself, but then dismisses it as exhaustion::

Host FAdm_Holowhed says:
<VAdm_Sourpuss> ::sneers visibly... walks out towards a transport to his office complex::

CTO_Miaek says:
::arrives back on the Triton::  Self: Home sweet home

Host XO_Keorn says:
