Captain Tergin and his lover Or'nonya prepare the dinner for the senior staff, as a last gift to the departing CNS Trinity Layne-Malaar and FCO/2O Jarek Malaar. Among the people attending are Dr. T'Salek (after being convinced to go by Dr. Nin Vestra), good old Millie Munroe, and relief conn Sasha Kali (who couldn't talk FO Leyson Ayden to go). Patton gives his best wishes to the Malaar couple. He is surprised to see Sasha Kali at the party, and they talk about their FO. CSciO Melody Cuen still has a hart time coping with her feelings and emotions, and decides not to attend the dinner. Instead, she goes to the bridge, where she has a confrontation with the FO about Mandella. At the party, Jarek experiences how difficult it can be to leave so many friends, but he knows it's for the best. More friends arrived in the form of OPS Blaze Starsinger and his lover No'urdan, and specOPS Arkanis. Tired from the recent events, CSO James Mauler prefers a good night sleep over the party. After the party, Patton takes a detour past sickbay before heading to bed. Nin tells him Melody is waiting for him in his office, after coming to sickbay for him a few hours earlier. It is obvious to Bill that Melody is having some problem, and she asks him to accompany her to the brig, where Mandella is being held. In the brig, they find the guard death on the floor and Mandella unconscious in front of her cell. Despite what Mandella had tried to do to Melody, Bill starts to treat her. Melody finally overcomes her feelings and kneels down to help. Upon touching Mandella, she drifts away into some kind of dream reality. There, she sees Bill, as a manifestation of a program that was embedded into her before her birth. She hears she was completely programmed to be the perfect human, and that Mandella was a previous version who lacked a kind personality. She is also told she cannot kill Mandella, because that would disrupt the balance of life. Back to real life, Bill tries to convince her it doesn't matter how she was created, because she is as real a person as anyone else by now. Mandella seems to have healed her injuries by herself. After an interrogation of sorts, Mandella catches the security officer off guard and disables Melody and Bill by throwing a med cart at them. She ducks into a ventilation duct, where, to her surprise, she finds a little girl who had been hiding there. She takes the child hostage. Getting an idea to resolve the situation, Melody starts acting just like Mandella used to. This confuses Mandella, and she eventually loose herself to her feelings. She attacks Melody, who has little trouble restraining her. Mandella starts drifting off, and Melody knows she is being recalled by the program implanted in both of them, where she will stay until she has bettered her life. The next morning, Patton is called by his old Marine friend. The 'General' informs him about a ceratin Dr. Izac Lueken, who performed experiments like the Mandella/Melody one. He arranges for Mandella to be picked up by Starfleet and brought to a secure place. On the bridge, Ayden confronts Tergin about his feeling for the new FO. The captain can give no other explanation than the feeling that something isn't right about the man. The Horizon arrives back at SB Omega, and is welcomed back by new the new Fleet CO. Tergin is a bit nervous about explaining the death of his previous FO to a board of Admirals. As is the tradition after Horizon missions, a large part of the crew gathers for a trip to the Mystery Bar. Despite feeling reluctant to go at first, Melody joins them as well. Sasha Kali finally gets Leyson so far as to accompany her for an evening on Omega. They start at an Ethiopian restaurant, and Ayden actually seems to relax a bit for a change. He accidentally talks about being from the future, and he orders Sasha to completely forget he ever said that. **************** USS ATHENE Commander Krwn GM Kathy Ruether **************** Rrrgth, the Melkot that Ian and Tyler saw in their window before, returns back to where Ian and Tyler are being held. They learn that the humans can not be saved from Talos IV due to the fact that they would die and interesting enough, the humans the away team met may not have even been real since the humans bodies only survive a few years after coming to the planet, but they will die between the age of 700 to 900. Not that bad of an age to live to. With the help of the humans, the Talosians will be able to return to the surface from their underground environment. Ian then learns that he has been alone in his cage and Tyler was just an illusion to him. Both Rrrgth and Ian will escape to the surface and contact the Athene. Meanwhile on the ship, Krwn takes a look at the probe after being called to Engineering. It seems that it has caught a causality loop and if it isn't sent in three days, time as they know it could be altered and some things left nonexistent. Krwn also brings up the possibility that those onboard at the moment may not even exist. He is then called to the Bridge to observe something interesting that is happening on the planet. **************************** USS HERMES Commander Michael J. Halifax Currently no GM **************************** NO REPORT SUBMITTED ************************** Condor Squadron Commander ************************** Branch Admiral Aleksi Kara ************************** ************** DS 101 Captain Alyza GM Don Ratliff ************** The Plisho freighter attempts to repair damage suffered during an attack. Their anonymous passenger had saved the ship, but was taken to their limited SickBay. Roberts admits Kersh to his quarters. Roberts has remembered the missing years. Roberts had been abducted from the year 1992 and placed in cyro-suspension until he had been revived sixty years ago and secretly replaced the Captain of the USS GALAXY. That much was know from Star Fleet records. Roberts now remembers being awaken during the 20th/21st Century. During that time he had met Kris Olson. Roberts had been release from cyro-suspension by a group of aliens who were studying Humans of that time. He spent many years traveling over Earth engaged in these studies. The aliens had made it clear, that Roberts' cooperation would prevent them from doing something 'drastic' to the Earth. Roberts tried to prevent a spaceship disaster which obliterated the town of Prescott, but failed. Afterwards, the aliens released Roberts only after taking his brother, Michael, with them. Security is informed of a missing eleven-year-old Deyhui girl. A search is begun. Soflaw Mudd, a distant relative of Harry Mudd, shows up on DS 101 and attempts to steal Star Fleet's patrol order schedule. The Caitian Ambassador, Warlord Avern, arrives at DS 101. Fischer's Command Grade Training is completed. He is promoted to full Lieutenant and takes over the position of First Officer. ********************** USS JOHN GLENN Captain Richard Murphy Currently no GM ********************** NO REPORT SUBMITTED **************** USS NIGHTINGALE LtCmdr Pol Canon GM Mistie Smith **************** With the discovery that Kelen is being blackmailed by Commander Vask, who implies that his (half Romulan) daughter will be killed unless he finds CO Canon guilty. Nathial sends CMO Paly'n and Search and Rescue specialist Ma'kauran on a mission to the Romulan vessel, to find her (a possible holding for her). Disguised as Romulans, Ma'kauran and Paly'n begin to search the vessel. While there Paly'n sees one of the Romulans 'Selnan' that supposedly Canon killed. To make sure that it is her they follow her to a ship common room. Nathial heads to the bridge to check on Lt Stuart during a break, back in court, the hearing is dragging on, to the fault of Ambassador Grayson, who seems to be talking forever (and it's only his opening speech). During all this, CSO Lt Qoensal has recieved orders for transfer to the Uss Hermes. ********************************************************************* Cocoon Fleet Situation Intelligence Report (by Adm. Elisabeth Davies) ********************************************************************* UPDATED SD 13.0313 The Federation/Na'Chem Ceasefire is still in effect. The USS SELEYA's peace talks have reached an impasse, although efforts continue. The USS ZEUS and USS XERXES continue patrols and have managed to disable one hostile cell's activities. The SELEYA is currently attempting contact with another influential Na'Stiu cell. Diplomatic relations with the Juun are still considered to be in 'a tense period.' Talks have resulted in an effort to disclose many possible sentient rights transgressions by past Juun governments, although very little has been turned up to date. Actions to relegitimize SFIntel continue. Administration needs which have stalled much of the progress are being handled, allowing for a resurgence in these efforts. *************************************** Amgine Sector Report (by Lt. Alac Nond) *************************************** OP108 has completed installation of its orbital docking platform and commercial and Fleet activity continues to grow in the area. The USS HORIZON has been assigned to continue the COCHRANE's aborted mission and investigate disappearances near the wormhole. As a direct result of the Noo'Ach Peace and Trade Conference, the Aldemiian race has been accepted as a probationary protectorate of the Federation, establishing an embassy on Earth. Two other races from that conference are still being considered for Federation membership. On a related note, the Federation might possibly become an intergalactic organization soon, as the Trasien race from the Andromeda galaxy has applied for Federation membership. Negotiations for evaluation will proceed soon. ***************************************** Beyond the Portal (by LtCmdr. Eli Meyman) ***************************************** The Klingon/Federation Officer Exchange Program has shown some success and plans are in the works to expand the program. The Klingon Empire and the Federation have established a non-aggression pact that many consider the prelude to a new treaty between the two. Still no official comments from the Cardassian Union. Recent investigations into Tholian border activity have confirmed that there is no military objective. Fourteen new colonies have been established within two sector's distance from the neutral zone, and military presence on these colonies is considered very light. An official assurance of peaceful intentions has been received from the Tholians. Romulan Ambassador Tultia and Vulcan Ambassador Skarov continue talks of Unification. Talks are expected to last several more weeks, despite projections of failure. ********************************************************
