Fleet Sitrep for SD 13.0701 Cocoon Fleet News Service www.holoworld-startrek.org ********************************************************* Fleet Commanding Officer ~ Fleet Admiral Erin M. O'Connor ********************************************************* Fleet Executive Officer ~ Admiral Anna Karsten ********************************************************* *************************** Antelope Squadron Commander *************************** (currently vacant) *************************** *********** USS ARTEMIS *********** NO REPORT SUBMITTED/CURRENTLY DRY-DOCKED *************************** USS HAMILTON CO: Commander Judah Gibbons GM: Janet Gist *************************** After his mysterious blackout on the holodeck and a 4 day stay in Sickbay, CNS Logaan Woods finds himself behind on his paperwork and unprepared for appointments made before the incident. The McCarters are each a handful, even on a good day, so Ensign Woods brings the session to a close a bit early and neither CSO Mercedes McCarter nor Yossarian, her brother, seem terribly disappointed at leaving what is really just a different kind of doctor's office early. The 'for Querts-sake' cleanup is finally finished off, CO Judah Gibbons' probe triangulation suggestion allowing the swift dispatch of all orbital debris too large to burn up before impact. So, after the parting gift of a few boat hulls made from chunks of the spaceship hulks, the HAMILTON follows GUAIAN into Cmdr Raid Dru's "snake hole," which has been mapped by CEO Chandler T'krn's pulse sensors. The bomb they dropped near the entry goes off behind them and destroys the Ralvidan 'Empiricals' only way to Quert space. Meanwhile, the conduit branch the SF crew took drops them back into real space 2 weeks from when they were and 17 lights from OMEGA. At half a day's travel from the moon base, they contact the center of Cocoon-based operations and begin making plans for some shore leave! ********* USS SAGAN ********* NO REPORT SUBMITTED/CURRENTLY DRY-DOCKED **************************** Beaver Squadron Commander **************************** Branch Admiral Cathal Aguiar **************************** ****************** USS HORIZON CO: Captain Tergin GM: Ruud Visser ****************** After running simulations of the recent events in the arboretum, COO Arkanis goes to SickBay to have his broken arm fixed. He and CMO Bill Patton discuss the finer aspects of dealing with extreme situation in which lives are at stake. On the bridge, the stress of the past few days becomes too much for OPS Blaze Starsinger, and he collapses. He is taken to sickBay, where he is tended to by Patton. After the doctor leaves, Blaze's boyfriend No'urdan pays him a visit and gives him a birthday present: a promise ring. No expresses his love for Blaze, who returns the feelings. Meanwhile, the sensors report a StarFleet shuttle heading their way. Despite FO Leyson Ayden's strong objections, Captain Tergin has the shuttle tractored in and the two occupants (a weak Andorian and an unconscious human) brought to SickBay. Ayden wants to talk to the Andorian (Captain Diak from the destroyed USS Hudson) immediately, but Patton, having a bad day, steps up to the FO and tells him in clear terms he wants to treat the patient first. During a thorough scan of the shuttle, CEO Dariale finds evidence that a Trasien was recently aboard. She quickly discovers the intruder has taken the shape of flight deck officer Millie Munroe, but she is incapacitated by her before she can make the call. In the meanwhile, Bordaq, the Horizon's former CEO, is transported from the past (specifically: from just before he reported aboard the Horizon for the first time) to the Horizon's location in time and space. He doesn't understand how both he and the Horizon ended up in the Andromeda galaxy. On his way to a special assignment, former ship's CNS Jay McMadeth ponders the meaning of his life and wonders if he's really made a difference, like many people have said he has. He hopes he has. ****************** USS ATHENE ****************** NO REPORT SUBMITTED/CURRENTLY DRY-DOCKED ******************************** USS HERMES CO: Commander Michael J. Halifax GM: Scott Bassitt ******************************** NO REPORT SUBMITTED ************************** Condor Squadron Commander ************************** Branch Admiral Aleksi Kara ************************** ***************** DS101 CO: Captain Alyza GM: Don Ratliff ***************** The party for Captain Alyza continued at Morwenna's Coffee Shop. Ensign Poynton got together with former Academy mates, Ensign Thayer and Ensign Azin from the NIGHTINGALE. Before the party Hakon and Marta were able to share some candle-lit time. Morwenna discovers that the hasperat souffle served to the gathering is contaminated with a virus. The CMO confirms this and takes a sample for further study. A Yawetag rehab ship is on its way to DS 101. Goose and JV Tel'drak investigate a series of suspicious petty thefts that occurred during the power outage. ************************** USS JOHN GLENN CO: Captain Richard Murphy GM: Adam West ************************** NO REPORT SUBMITTED ********************************** USS NIGHTINGALE CO: Lieutenant-Commander Pol Canon GM: Mistie Smith (SitRep by Scott Bradley) ********************************** Hello again, folks. What fate is unveiled by the play of the great wheel that is the universe? I am...the Watcher. Heh. I always wanted to say that. Anyways... Over on DS101, the party continues. Alyza and Pol meet and the two Cos discuss Kelen with Galia Bitzalal, the FO and CSciO of the Curie. As they speak, Kelen joins them suddenly, fresh from his journey from Omega. He tells the assembled officers a tale of his loyalties and the importance of trusting in one's self over all else. Kelen assures the skeptical Pol, in his own way, that Canon and the Nightingale have his loyalty. Later, Kelen returns to the Nightingale in his own inimitable fashion, getting into a tiff with a security guard before getting some rest. Stuart, on DS101 for the party, reflects on his earlier conversation with McCuen as he makes the rounds and wanders the station, eventually ending up in a very strange, yet familiar pet shop. Your friendly neighborhood GM suspects that this particular shop may also sell cheese, but that's another visit. Back on the Nightingale, Paly'n, while setting up the party for the new officers, meets Mrell in the Swamp, who buys him a drink as the Cardassian inquires after the doctor's opinion of Lt. Stuart. Paly'n gives Dan a favorable review and visits several familiar faces in the kitchen before meeting up with Marcol to arrange music for the party. Marcol observes that Paly'n is avoiding the station for personal reasons, and discontinues the doctor's well-intended but ineffective therapy sessions intended to cure his affliction. ***************************************************************** Cocoon Fleet Situation Intelligence Report (by Cmdr Seth Forster) ***************************************************************** UPDATED SD 13.0615 Na'stiu and Juun relations continue to be tense without progress from assigned diplomatic teams. Activity has been reported in the Holack sector, despite the Veil's blockage of subspace communication. The USS HERMES has been sent to investigate. Reports of Talonid invasion into the Cocoon have been determined to be false. The USS JOHN GLENN has reportedly found debris from the destruction of the USS COCHRANE. Search for survivors continues, but none have been found at this time. ***************************************************** Amgine Sector and Andromeda Report (by Lt. Alac Nond) ***************************************************** OP 108 activity has begun increasing with the completion of the orbital docking platform. Construction has begun on several new ships at the newly constructed shipyards there. In addition, the Andromeda wormhole has shown no signs of unusual behavior in recent months, causing a return of commerce to the area. Peaceful cooperation with races in the Amgine Sector continue to increase in the aftermath of the Noo'Ach Peace and Trade Conference. Terrorist attacks continue to plague StarFleet ships in the Andromeda Galaxy. Purist terrorist cells, devoted to ridding Andromeda of all Federation presence, have jeopardized the entrance of Trasior into the Federation. Negotiators on Trasior report that the Trasien council is considering withdrawing their application for membership, while various attacks and disappearances are being investigated both by Trasien Security and by StarFleet. ***************************************** Beyond the Portal (by LtCmdr. Eli Meyman) ***************************************** Recent troop movements along Cardassia's border with Breen space has sparked some interest in the Union's possible plans. With relations still cold from the war, no official inquiries have been made, and no investigation is planned. Betazoid Council chairman Beyard Mali and Alpha Centauran Council chairwoman Vhesha P'Nehbuddar have announced plans to begin a massive cultural exchange between their two peoples, including cultural centers on each of the two race's home planets. The cultural centers will be primarily devoted to exploration of similarities between the two cultures and will include expositions on the theoretical genetic links between Alpha Centaurans and Betazoids. Three suspected members of the Orion Syndicate were indicted today at a Federation Council hearing. Although the Orion Syndicate has been careful in the past to remain outside of Federation jurisdiction, the recent acceptance of Vermanda III into the UFP has expanded StarFleet presence into a previously unmoderated area, heavily used by Syndicate trafficking. StarFleet expects no retaliation, but also no more arrests, as the Syndicate has most likely changed their operations routes. **********************************************************
