USS Vesuvius, NCC-71985
Stardate 10411.09
Episode 2

Home

The Vesuvius orbits Earth as her crew enjoys some rest and relaxation time.  Admiral Royce made a brief appearance in order to transfer command to the new Captain, Commander Doane McGrady.  Once the transfer was complete, she spent a bit of time with some old friends before rushing off to meeting at Starfleet Headquarters.

It was like old home week, when another old face, and former Vesuvius crew member, now a Captain himself came to visit the Vesuvius.  Captain Trelan Drukkar spent some time among those friends left with whom he served when he was assigned to the Galaxy-class vessel.

A transporter accident resulted in the death of two new crew members as they transported up from Earth.  Unfortunately this accident also halted all movement of personnel and supplies between Earth and the Vesuvius.

At this time Captain McGrady, who was called away for an emergency training session on Earth, has left the Vesuvius in charge with Commander Darvo while the crew still enjoys shore leave on Earth.

CMO_Bannister says:
@OPS:  Back in the twenty-first century it was difficult to imagine that humans would be living here on the moon, but anti grav generators make this possible.

CEO_Jokeg says:
*XO*: I have found the problem and should have them back online within the hour Commander.

CMO_Bannister says:
@::Waits for Trial to enter the house.::

CMO_Bannister says:
@<Cassie> ::A young girl, about 15 years young, comes around from the corner and lights up with joy.::  CMO:  Jay!  I didn't know you were coming home!

@Cass:  Well, I wanted to surprise you all. ::Hugs his sister and nods towards Trial.::

CSO_Lane says:

@<Cassie>  CMO:  I see you've brought your girlfriend home.  ::Winks at his brother.::  I always knew you had good choice.  ::Runs out of the main entrance in search for her parents.::

XO_Darvo says:
CTO: You have the bridge, I'll be in the Captain's ready room going over the refit reports.

CEO_Jokeg says:
::Comes out from under the panel:: EO: Thank you Ensign. ::Looks them over and goes to installing them::

OPS_Martin says:
@::Turns slightly red:: CMO: Girlfriend?...I don't recall that ever happening...

CMO_Bannister says:

CEO_Jokeg says:
<Dylan> CEO: You know sir, you have been really hard on the staff. You have no idea what we have been through.

CMO_Bannister says:
@Henry, Jane:  Mom, Dad, it's nice to see you again.  ::He hugs them.::

CTO_Ens_Liu says:
TO: If you want, you are free to go and enjoy yourself Erik. Unless you'd would like to stay and help.

CMO_Bannister says:
@Henry/Jane:  I'd like you to meet a fellow officer that serves with me on the U.S.S. Vesuvius.  This is Commander Trial Martin.

OPS_Martin says:
@::Smiles wryly at Jay, and turns to see Jays parents, nodding at them::

CEO_Jokeg says:
::Doesn't even come out from where he is working:: EO: You think I am hard, try serving on board a IKS ship, if you do not perform there you are shot out the airlock.

TO_Thursson says:
CTO: I've had enough free time waiting for the Vesuvius to get home after I graduated from the academy. Just tell me what you'd like me to do, sir. ::Grins::

CMO_Bannister says:
@<Henry> OPS:  Ah, we've heard a little bit about you.  You're an engineer aren't you?

XO_Darvo says:
::Nods as the Vesuvius is nearing the last stages of the refit and should be space worthy soon::

CEO_Jokeg says:
<Dylan> CEO: With all due respect sir, this is not a IKS ship.

OPS_Martin says:
@::Nods:: Henry: Yes sir, and I was the counselor for the Vesuvius until today as well...I was reassigned though, I'm Operations now.

CEO_Jokeg says:
::Finishes and comes out of the service section:: EO: You are right about that Ensign. Ok let's give it a try, run a diagnostic.

XO_Darvo says:
::Brings up the personnel records and goes over the new crewmember files::

CSO_Lane says:

Host Admiral-Royce says:
COM: Ves: Vesuvius, this is Admiral Royce.  Please come in
