O'Connor ********************************************************* Fleet Executive Officer ~ Admiral Tando Landi ********************************************************* **************************** Beaver Squadron Commander **************************** (currently vacant) **************************** ****************** USS HORIZON CO: Captain James Burke GM: Nina ****************** LtCmdr Kallesin n'Galeda finds an Andorian engineer among the guests and wants to talk technology with the man. He is surprised to find in Akeen Ghorev one of Vymora's husbands. Akeen reacts hostile to Kallesin, but Kallesin is not affected by the insults leveled against him. Akeen tells him that he insists on keeping Vymora as his wife and will not tolerate an artificial person next to him. LtCmdr Vymora Einicrox studies the scans of the weapons concealed upon the Deserte bodyguards, and is impressed. This represents a welcome martial challenge for her as Andorian warrior and as Chief of Security. Kallesin approaches her to discuss the divorces Vymora plans and his chance meeting with Akeen. Vymora is upset about Akeen's behavior but explains her reasoning to Kallesin: she wants to state clearly with the divorces that Kallesin will be enough for her for the rest of her life. Kallesin is very happy with that reply and even accepts the fact that Akeen demands equal time with Vymora as a chance to win her back. He inquires about her parents' opinion. In the end Vymora and Kallesin agree that nothing and no one will be able to prevent their marriage. Lt Epona O'Leary takes over the helm to pilot the HORIZON out of the docking bay. Cpt Burke and especially Vymora Einicrox have faith in her abilities. Soon the ship is safely on its way to Deserte, and Cpt Burke is relieved that Epona is still in possession of her piloting skills. Kallesin is on the bridge during the departure from SB OMEGA and monitors Epona closely. He is satisfied that everything is alright. At ETA six hours a signal is picked up and Kallesin detects two warships barely within sensor range. The ships have Telmarc features and are heavily armed. His report of rumors of new Telmarc plutonium rockets worries Burke and Vymora considerably. Epona uses her break to do research on the holodeck on how to counter such new rockets. She experiments with course and speed variations until she is satisfied that she will be able to evade the rockets if fired against the HORIZON. But she asks the bridge whether the weapons would be able to attach themselves to a ship's hull. Vymora studies the ships' movements and tries to reason out their intentions. She assumes that the ships are proof that the Crown Prince's ascension to the throne is not uncontested. She decides to talk to Prince Tamal and others about Deserte and the events leading to the current situation. When Vymora sees Crown Prince Tamal Jehune he is very polite. He is aware of the two mysterious ships but claims to be unable to give Vymora more information about them. Vymora assures him that she will keep every bit of information that will help protect him confidential. Prince Tamal admits that one of his brothers is a serious contender for the throne. Vymora warns him that he cannot trust any of his relatives. Tamal is impressed with the candidness and insight of the Chief of Security. Vymora asks him to consider using a broadband antidote and a subdermal transponder. She also asks to be informed by one of his bodyguards about Deserte military tactics. Tamal agrees to the latter. Lastly she tells him in short about the Akeen situation, knowing that her actions might not conform to Deserte custom, but the success of the mission is more important to her than what the Crown Prince might think of her personally. -- ******************* ************************************************* ************************** USS HERMES CO: LtCmdr T'al GM: EJ ************************** *************************************************** ************************** Condor Squadron Commander ************************** Branch Admiral Earle Hayes. ************************** ***************** DS101 CO: Captain Alyza GM: Theresa ***************** No activity to report. ************************ ************************************ USS NIGHTINGALE CO: Captain Pol Canon GM: Marco ************************************** **************************************** **************************************** **************************************** Respectfully Submitted Don Fleet GM fleetgm-put the at symbol here -yahoogroups -put a dot here - com
