Fleet Sitrep for SD 15.0202 Cocoon Fleet News Service www.holoworld-startrek.org ********************************************************* Fleet Commanding Officer ~ Fleet Admiral Erin M. O'Connor ********************************************************* acting Fleet Executive Officer ~ Admiral S'Telk ********************************************************* *************************** Antelope Squadron Commander *************************** (currently vacant) *************************** *************************** USS HAMILTON CO: Captain Judah Gibbons GM: Janet Gist *************************** After perusing CEO Tyvek's file for a few moments, muttering the occasional thought snippet, CSO Mercedes McCarter decides she has enough of an idea of her new colleague to drop in on him. Surprised by the fact that the computer reported the Chief Engineer's location as being Main Engineering, she pops in on him and asks for his assistance preparing a little surprise in case their erstewhile ambushers should come nosing around again. Tyvek is momentarily worried that the bomb could just as easily be hot-potatoed back to them, but Mercedes explains that it would be a programmable bomb; smart enough to not take out its makers. He then promises to do what he can and Mercedes heads out to find the next person on her list, OPS Mara Thull. Mara, she finds, is in the middle of an interesting situation involving several small ships in such bad condition that they are first mistaken for debris. When the 'debris' changes course to intercept them, then fires on them, it becomes obvious they are not yet debris but are working on the problem. The HAMILTON isn't at significant risk from the relatively weak weapon's fire, but aCO Miranda Sands and the others heading planetside for a preliminary mining survey are quite vulnerable. CSciO Jur Lehron, her lover-not-a-fighter fiance whom she nevertheless left in charge, is most worried about the shuttle when Mercedes asks if she should return fire. Is the shuttle exposed? Is it in danger? Has it been their attackers' actual target? ********* **************************** Beaver Squadron Commander **************************** (currently vacant) **************************** ****************** USS HORIZON CO: LtCmdr James Burke GM: Ruud Visser ****************** CMO Electra Threin is making some progress in finding a way to restore SOXO Cady's rapid ageing, but she isn't there yet. In the meantime, she doesn't let anyone near Cady. Admiral Tergin, commander of the Emerald Fleet and former captain of the Horizon, sends an urgent message to CO James Burke, requesting that Burke doesn't let the Holy die. If the Holy does die, it will likely lead to civil war on Tammon, as well as war between the Tammon people and the Federation. OPS D'Art Storm and CSciO Abi Seldon have set up a way to 'feed' the being, but the problem is to get the food inside the forcefield. In the end, Storm decides to bring it inside himself, using an EVA suit and a portable field generator to keep the forcefield intact. The feeding is a success, but before Storm can leave the forcefield, the being strikes at him. Immediately, it starts integrating itself into his body. Ensign Oqqre, a Chalna recently assigned to the Horizon, is suffering from a case of aichmophobia: fear of pointy objects. He has a talk with CNS Stan the Man. ************************ USS ATHENE CO: Cpt Demetrius Simms GM: Currently Vacant SITREP by: Clark Goble *********************** NO REPORT SUBMITTED/CURRENTLY DRY-DOCKED ******************************** USS HERMES CO: Commander Michael J.

Draat organizes his engineering teams and they swing into action. Ya-Nar's OPS team soon find the CEO additional work in the shape of a malfunctioning backup generator. The Elven CsciO briefs the Captain on the genetically altered seeds. The work would have to be carried out without the department heads as Fischer announces a formal dinner for 1900 hours followed by a staff meeting which would end less than an hour before departure! Shapel seems more and more perturbed by the less regimented approach of a starfleet crew will it be only a matter of time before he himself needs the services of a 'disorganized unprofessional socialite' CNS? With the arrival of some of the Cocoons top brass and accompanying reporters, the meal gets under way. security best be on the ball as reporters can be worse than Ferrets for getting into areas they are not supposed to! **************************************** ********************************************************** Don Ratliff, Fleet GM **********************************************************
