Host CO_Ayidee says:
Captain's Log, Stardate 10611.05, Captain Ayidee recording.  We are arriving at the newly created Fort Kirk to join in a task force assigned with stopping a suspected Synod invasion of Federation Space.  We expect further orders soon, but for the moment, we will just join the fleet and prepare for what comes next.

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Begin Mission >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
ACTION:  A message comes to the Cherokee that a ship will come along side and reload supplies and weapons along with other personnel.

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
CO:  Sir, I haven't seen this much wreckage since the Dominion Wars.  It is like dodging a minefield.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::On Bridge, looking over the fleet as it gathers.::  *Ship-wide*: All hands, we are arriving at Fort Kirk.  Status report and situational update ASAP.

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
CO:  Helm green and evading space debris Sir.

SO_Ens_Duke says:
::stares disbelievingly at the science station's screens:: CO: I don't know what to make of it sir. We're reading massive background chronoton radiation.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
aFCO: Yes, things appear to have gone badly here.  I had hoped not to see this again.  Let's hope it doesn't get worse.

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
::brings up the latest reports on security readiness and weapon status.:: CO: Tactical reports all hands at their stations and weapons are ready to go hot at your word, sir.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
SO: Chronoton?  As in temporal disturbances?

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
CO: Confirmed Sir ::turns and grins at the SO::

SO_Ens_Duke says:
::nods:: CO:  Yes sir. The point of origin seems to be that White Hole. The dispersal pattern of most of the wreckage seems to have the same origin.

Kandi_Chase says:
::On bridge with Cameraman, Kyle:: KYLE: Get some shots of the debris field.

OPS_Nash says:
::monitoring communications when she notices an urgent message comes to her attention, she reads the contents::    CO:  Captain, I just got word that a ship will come along the side of us, to drop off supplies and more personnel.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
SO: Take the opportunity to study it some.  Does it appear to be a natural phenomena, or a weapon?

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
:: sighs and wipes his hand over his face. :: SO: You mean to tell me Fort Kirk is situated beside a White Hole?  Wow, at least they listened to the first rule of real estate.  Location, location, location.

Kandi_Chase says:
CO: Captain, would it be all right if my camera-man took some shots from the Observation Lounge window?

SO_Ens_Duke says:
::shakes head:: CO: Inconclusive, sir. Andromeda says standby for the records. They're compiling now.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
OPS: Understood, reply confirmation and find room for the new crew coming aboard.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Kandi: Certainly, live shots will likely make for a better show.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
SO: It's intriguing.  Never had a chance to study a White Hole before.

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
:: can't help but grin at the reporter's request. :: Chase: What’s the matter Ms. Chase?  Aren't we more interesting then some intergalactic phenomenon?

CNS_Wells says:
::Hears new crew coming aboard and wonders if one of them will be a new CMO::

SO_Ens_Duke says:
::turns around and smiles:: CO: It should be interesting indeed sir. With your permission, I'll go down to the science labs and await the dispatch from Andromeda.

OPS_Nash says:
CO:  Aye, Sir.  ::she replies the confirmation of receiving the message and tells her assistant to begin assigning new crew their quarter assignments::

Kandi_Chase says:
CO: Thank you, Captain. ::Motions for Kyle to head for the OL::

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
<USS Burns> %COM: Cherokee:  This is the USS Burns, and we are ready to transfer supplies and a Starfleet Rep as well.

Kandi_Chase says:
<KYLE>::Exits bridge for OL::

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
:: turns his attention back to the broadcast. :: CO: A rep?

Host CO_Ayidee says:
SO: Of course, I look forward to the report.  At least let us pretend we're still doing the role we signed up for.
CTO: First I heard of it.

OPS_Nash says:
COM:  USS Burns:  Message received, one request before the transfer begins, please send your ID code for confirmation.

Kandi_Chase says:
CTO: You certainly are of interest too, Commander, but hardly news worthy.

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
<USS Burns> %COM: Cherokee:  Sending now for confirmation, Cherokee.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
OPS: Also request identity of the Starfleet Rep, and inquire whether VIP status is called for.

SO_Ens_Duke says:
::exits the bridge and orders the Turbolift down to the science labs::

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
:: smirks at the lady reporter. :: Chase:  That’s because you haven't given me time to show you my headline.

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
::tries not to laugh at the statement from the CTO::

Kandi_Chase says:
::Blushes a bit at the CTO's crude but amusing comeback::

OPS_Nash says:
::checks the code twice with those on record and confirms identity::  COM:  USS Burns:  Ship Identity confirmed.  One more request, please confirm the Identity of the Starfleet Representative and let us know if the individual or individuals are of VIP status.

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
:: chuckles and returns to his board. :: Chase: Sorry, just be glad I didn't use some cheesy cliché about you having to go undercover to get to know me.

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
<USS Burns> %COM: Cherokee:  It is Captain L`el.  No quarters are required or special treatment.  It will be a briefing for your ship.  Burns out.

OPS_Nash says:
COM:  USS Burns:  Understood.  Cherokee out.

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
CO: Why is it every time someone from Starfleet briefs us they have to make it sound like we are being called to the Principal's office for something we did?

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
::coughs to cover his laughter::

Kandi_Chase says:
CTO: Be careful Commander, someone may mistake you for a cheesy cliche.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
CTO: Guilty conscience.

OPS_Nash says:
CO:  The Starfleet Rep is Captain L'el.  The captain will be on board just for briefing purposes.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
CTO: Have an escort meet the Burns and escort the representative to the Observation Lounge. 

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
Chase: Never said I wasn't.  But sometimes we all need a little cheese in our life.  Now if you'll excuse me, I have a captain to greet.
CO: Sir, I'll go with you to greet our visitor if you don't mind.

CNS_Wells says:
CTO: It's called a power play. It let's them believe we have been shown our place. Starfleet knows all the psyche tricks.

Burns_Capt_L`el says:
@ ::walks across the umbilical gantry on to Cherokee and gets out of the way of the loading teams bringing supplies aboard::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
*Senior Staff*: All Department heads report to the Observation Lounge for a briefing immediately.

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
CO: I'll go personally sir.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
CTO: We'll save a seat for you.

Kandi_Chase says:
::Moves over to OPS station but watches CTO exit:: OPS: Is that guy for real?

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
::calls his replacement and leaves for the OL::

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
:: nods to one of his subordinates to take over his station as he heads to the TL to meet the visitor. ::

OPS_Nash says:
:: motioning her relief to take her post, she gets up to go to the Observation Lounge::  Kandi:  Sweetie, he is as real as one gets.  Just count your blessings that there isn't two of him.

CNS_Wells says:
::Gets up to go into OL, taking the long way around to avoid Chase::

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
::can't help but hear OPS and the Newswoman's conversation::

Burns_Capt_L`el says:
::rubs the medial ridge on his blue face and looks down the corridor::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Watch Officer: Keep us in far orbit around the station, and let me know if anything happens.  ::Moves for the Observation Lounge, grabbing a PADD along the way.::

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
:: brings the TL to a halt on the loading deck and steps out.  Moving briskly over to the loading area the Visitor came onboard, grinning as he finds him in between two of his security team members, already checking him for anything suspicious.::

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
SEC Team: At ease you two.  I'll take it from here.

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
::stands next to the OL door waiting on the CO to enter::

Kandi_Chase says:
::Smiles knowingly as the OPS leaves the bridge::

OPS_Nash says:
::she enters the Observation Lounge and sits down::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Enters the Observation Lounge.::

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
Burns_Capt_L`el:  Welcome aboard the Cherokee, Captain.  I'm Commander Mark Hazzard, Chief of Security on board.  If you'll follow me to the Observation Lounge?

Kandi_Chase says:
<KYLE>::In OL, sees everybody enter::

Burns_Capt_L`el says:
::looks up at the three-pipper in gold that arrives:: CTO: Of course, Commander. ::prepares to follow:: Is Paranoia a commodity on this ship?

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Kyle: My apologies, but once you get your pictures of the White Hole, we need the room back.

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
Burns_Capt_L’el : No sir, but I take security very seriously on board sir.  Everybody gets checked when they arrive.  Nothing personal, sir. Now if you would follow me?

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
Sec Team: Guido, Nunzio, get back to your posts till further notice.

Kandi_Chase says:
<KYLE>: CO: Oh, umm, yes Sir. ::Packs it up and joins Kandi on the bridge::

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
:: chuckles as he leads the guest to the TL. ::

Burns_Capt_L`el says:
::walks beside Hazzard:: CTO: Well I suppose in a time of war, there can never be enough caution.

CNS_Wells says:
OPS/CO: Ahh, a chance to take a breath without it being recorded or reported. How nice. ::Takes a seat in OL::

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
:: ushers the Captain into the TL and takes it to the OL. :: Burns_Capt_L’el:  Exactly.  Besides, the safety of this ship and her crew are pretty much priority one as far as I'm concerned.  As I said before, nothing personal. :: smiles as they reach the OL. ::

Burns_Capt_L`el says:
::follows the human into the lounge without comment, looking around it briefly::

CNS_Wells says:
::Sees the CTO arrive with a guest::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Takes a few seconds to look at the White Hole, wishing there was time for a full study.::  Self: The joys of study.  ::Sighs, then turns back to the room.::
Burns_Capt_L’el: Captain, welcome to the Cherokee, I'm Captain Ayidee.

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
:: walks into the OL and takes a seat at the table, crossing his arms over his chest and making himself a bit more comfortable. ::

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
::leans over to whisper to the CTO:  CTO: Nice comebacks Sir.  :grinning::

Burns_Capt_L`el says:
::nods at his feline counterpart:: CO: Captain L'el. I have orders to bring you up to speed, materially as well as informationally. You have the time now?

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
aFCO: Trick with dealing with reporters is keeping them off their guard.  I'm good at that.

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
:: puts his attention back to the visitor. ::

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
::nods::  CTO;  You will have to teach me a few.

Host CO_Ayidee says: 
Burns_Capt_L’el: Now's as good a time as any.  Waiting won't get us much.

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
:: whispers without losing eye contact with Captain Burns. :: aFCO: Patience, my apprentice, patience.

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
::waits for the update from Captain L`el::

CNS_Wells says:
::Listens to the SF rep hoping for good news.:: 

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Burns_Capt_L’el: I have my senior staff gathered here.  I assumed this was a crew briefing, but if not I can send them back to their stations.

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
ACTION:  More Federation ships are arriving.  The task force is beginning to fill out nicely.

Burns_Capt_L`el says:
CO: Not necessary. ::unfolds his arms and produces a small PADD, which he slides across the table to Ayidee:: With receipt of this order, Captain, the Cherokee is now officially part of the Andromeda Task Group and under temporary command of Commodore Sketek.

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
:: frowns slightly as he considers the ramifications of being under someone else's command. ::

CNS_Wells says:
::Doesn't like the sound of that::

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
<Admiral Alexander> ::this just gets better and better as she watches the meeting in the OL::

OPS_Nash says:
::waits for the other shoe to drop::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
L'el: Understood and accepted.  ::Takes the PADD and acknowledges the order.::  Do we have a specific assignment yet, or are we waiting on the rest of the fleet?

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
::wonders how tangled this "command" structure is going to become::

Burns_Capt_L`el says:
CO: As we speak, my ship is re-supplying yours. You're being given additional medical supplies, fuel for your auxiliary craft and anti-personnel weapons to use if you're boarded. I'm sorry, but you're only allotted ten quantum torpedoes from my stores, but I've brought along twenty additional engineers and medics.

Host Burns_Capt_L`el says:
CO: I've been ordered to inform you that you're to take 'extraordinary measures' now to participate in major fleet action. Command recommends you evacuate all unnecessary areas and weld them shut and shut down environmental services to those areas to save power from environmental and structural integrity systems.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
L'el: We'll make do and find a way to make things stretch.

Host Burns_Capt_L`el says:
CO: If you like, we have a few tons of Tritanium ingot that you can use to cover your portholes in residential areas as well. Do you want them? ::prepared to make a note of it::

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
CO: I can have that done within a few hours, sir.  It was something I added to the precaution list before we started our patrols.

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
::this just keep getting worse, what next?::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
L'el: That will make things go quicker, we'll take them.
CTO: Start getting non essentials offloaded as soon as we finish here.

CNS_Wells says:
::Hates thinking about loosing the window in his quarters::

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
CO: Yes sir.  Consider it done yesterday.

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
ACTION:  One of the Cherokee security teams spots what appears to be body bags being brought onboard.

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
<Sec Team> *CTO*: Commander, the Burns is transferring body bags on board.  Thought you should know.

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
:: looks a little alarmed at this and looks to the Burns's CO:  CO_Burns: Captain, may I ask why we are taking body bags on board?

Host Burns_Capt_L`el says:
CO: Commodore Sketek will send out additional orders on this. But certain key ships are being broken down into tactical squadrons for this action. I don't know if you'll be assigned to one or leading one, but I've also been given this for you as well. ::makes a point of walking around and handing a small iso-linear chip to the captain::  The encryption codes for this mission only.

CNS_Wells says:
CTO: Body bags? I hope they're empty.

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
:: The Security Teams swarm over the body bags, checking each one methodically before allowing it to be stored in the Cherokee's hold. ::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
L'el: Is this our first task, then?

CNS_Wells says:
::Hates knowing it will be him filling those body bags::

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
::sees the expression on the CNS's face and thinks he knows what is on his mind::

Kandi_Chase says:
::On bridge dying to know what is going on behind closed doors::

Host Burns_Capt_L`el says:
::looks at the crew and then refocuses on Cherokee's captain:: CO: My job is to get your ship ready for this mission. I don't know much beyond that. I've been given a schedule. Based on it, I can tell you that I believe you'll be leaving in the morning. That's when I'm supposed to be done by. ::gestures out the window at the incoming ships::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
L'el: Understood, we'll be ready.

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
*Sec Team*: I want every piece of cargo they bring over Triple checked and stored properly, people.  I want NO surprises.  Hazzard out.

Kandi_Chase says:
KYLE: Take that footage down to Milo for editing. I'll meet you guys later.

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
CO: Captain, if this is all, permission to take my station at the bridge so I can oversee the cargo transfer?

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
ACTION:  As the Captain looks out the window, the USS Burro drops to impulse and as it does, it misses its mark due to the subspace distortions.  It slams into one of the USS Virgo’s, dead in space crushed by the white hole, the Burro explodes.

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
:: looks in shock as the Burro collides with the Virgo. :: *Bridge*: Sound Collision alert and Stand by for possible Impact!

Host CO_Ayidee says:
CTO: Granted...what in the blazes?

Host Burns_Capt_L`el says:
::winces at the bright flash of light:: Self: Star Mother...

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
Self:  Wow, what was that light?

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
:: stands up and heads for the bridge immediately ::

CNS_Wells says:
*MO_MONROE*: Janet, there's some new supplies coming on board. Have them processed for me after the Tactical guys are done with it.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
L'el: Let's get to the bridge and see what we can do.  ::Rises and quickly returns to the Bridge.::

CNS_Wells says:
<MO_MONROE>: *CNS*: Yes, Doctor, I'll get Amarie on it.

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
:: takes his station at Tactical and immediately scans the immediate area of the Burro to see what the blazes is going on. ::

Host Burns_Capt_L`el says:
::lingers in the doorway, looking out at the fading light:: Self: Captain Borek...

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
CO: Raising Shields incase of debris!

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
:: taps the controls to engage the shields. ::

CNS_Wells says:
::Catches the explosion from the corner of his eye::

CNS_Wells says:
::Returns to bridge::

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
ACTION:  The CTO detects chronoton radiation from the Virgo's wreckage expanding and covering all ships in the area.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
CTO: Acknowledged.  Start scanning for survivors immediately.

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
All: I've got increasing intensity on chronotron radiation coming from the area of the Virgo wreckage...

Kandi_Chase says:
::Sees everyone returning:: 

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
ACTION:  Small pieces of debris hit the Cherokee with no damage.

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
CO: Nothing dangerous, but I still think shields are necessary.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
aFCO: Take your station and bring us in closer.  We have to see if there are still survivors.

Host Burns_Capt_L`el says:
::steps up behind Ayidee's chair and leans down to whisper:: CO: This situation is getting out of control. It's getting out of control and people are dying.

Kandi_Chase says:
CO: Captain? What has happened?

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
CO:  Aye Sir ::leaves his chair and trots to the bridge::

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
*Sickbay*: Standby to receive possible survivors.

CNS_Wells says:
OPS: Is it possible there were survivors?

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Kandi: Some kind of accident, I don't know anything else.

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
::taking his seat, he taps his console, moving the Cherokee closer to the explosion::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
L'el: What's getting out of control?  The war?

OPS_Nash says:
CNS:  I doubt it.

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
Chase: Ms. Chase, We'll answer your questions as soon as we can. But for right now, could you let us do our jobs?  :: tries to keep the edge of his voice so she doesn't feel like he's snapping at her. ::

Host Burns_Capt_L`el says:
::meets Ayidee's eyes with purple eyes of his own and imperceptibly nods:: CO: If you'll excuse me, Captain. I have other ships to supply.

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
aSO:  Pull sensor logs from the last few minutes.  Let us know what the heck caused the Burro to go kablooey like that.

Kandi_Chase says:
CTO: I understand your tolerance for stress, Commander but, I am not keeping anyone from their jobs.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
L'el: I understand.  May the fates smile on you and keep you safe.

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
Chase:  Ma’am, you may be doing your job, but we have just had a disaster.  We need to find out if anyone survived, so let us do ours!

Host Burns_Capt_L`el says:
::nods to Ayidee and heads for the lift, heading down to the loading gantry::

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
::clamps his jaws down so tight, it hurts his teeth::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
All: Focus.  Any signs of survivors?  A ship that big, can't have lost everyone.

Kandi_Chase says:
aFCO: Do it. Who's stopping you. I'm just standing here.

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
:: uses the ships sensors to pick up any life signs among the still burning wreckage. :: CO: On it sir!

OPS_Nash says:
<Ensign Tanda>  OPS:  Commander, I just thought I should inform you that I have received word that no survivors came from that disaster.

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
CO:  I am detecting none on my sensors, maybe the CTO or OPS has something.

OPS_Nash says:
Ensign Tanda:  Understood.

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
Chase: Sorry ma'am.  We just had a ship collision and well...no survivors.  Its not that we don't want you here.  Never said that.

SO_Ens_Duke says:
::arrives on the bridge via the other lift and smiles with a datacard in hand:: CO: Captain, I got the download from Andromeda here. I can... ::notices the expressions on everyone's faces:: What's happened?

OPS_Nash says:
ALL:  Sorry, confirmed, no survivors.

CNS_Wells says:
*MO_MONROE*: Stand down, code Orange. There were no survivors.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
SO: Accident, we're trying to figure out what happened, but it appears we had a ship collision.

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
SO:  The USS Burro came in out of warp, and just collided with the USS Virgo.  There are no survivors it appears.

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
:: shakes his head. :: Chase: Sometimes it doesn't take a war to have a tragedy. 

Kandi_Chase says:
CTO: I too feel for those who lost their lives Commander. Sometimes I may just be asking a question as a concerned individual. I'm a human being first, reporter second.

SO_Ens_Duke says:
::gasps and silently walks the rest of the way to his station::

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
CO: Captain, we might want to have the Squadron Commander issue a warning about warping into this space.  That White Hole is just frakking with navigation systems way to much for this to be safe.

Kandi_Chase says:
::Taking notes trying to understand what has happened from dialogue on the bridge::

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
Chase: Sorry if I made you feel like I thought otherwise.  I am not known for my stunning grasp for human character.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
CTO: Noted, and it will be done.

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
CO: Captain, maybe we should launch a nav buoy here so that other ships can avoid this particular area?

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
::whispers to OPS::  OPS:  I am going to strangle her if she doesn't show a little sympathy.

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
aFCO: Hey, eyes forward!  Debris marker at 034 mark 8!

CNS_Wells says:
CO: Captain, with your permission, I should head for Sickbay and oversee those in coming supplies.

OPS_Nash says:
aFCO:  People show sympathy in different ways.

Kandi_Chase says:
CTO: Just what are you known for, Commander?

Host CO_Ayidee says:
CNS: Agreed.  We seem to have a schedule to keep.

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
::snorts but says nothing::

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
Chase: My good looks, my sense of humor, and the best chili this side of the Bajoran Wormhole.  Not necessarily in that order.
Host CO_Ayidee says:
CTO: Contact Fort Kirk and let them know what you're doing, then do it.

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
:: continues to work at his station, not even realizing he's flirting now. ::

CNS_Wells says:
CO: Thank you, Sir ::Gets up and heads for TL::

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
CO: Yes sir.

Kandi_Chase says:
CNS: Wait for me Counselor, I'd like to talk to you. ::Rushes into TL after him::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
All: And get everything settled tonight.  We appear to be getting ready to depart in the morning.  I want all non essential crew off loaded within a few hours.

CNS_Wells says:
::Gives a look like he is about to be forced fed Klingon food::

OPS_Nash says:
::she already said her goodbyes before, she prays that this will end soon so she could have her family back::

CTO_LtCmdr_Hazzard says:
:: turns around and notices the reporter has left to be with the CNS. :: OPS: I'd ask if it was something I said.  But considering whom I'm asking...I'll save myself the ridicule the question would bring me.

CNS_Wells says:
::TL Doors close::

OPS_Nash says:
::just looks at the CTO and not responding to that he said::

Host aFCO-Candoit says:
ACTION:  The Cherokee receives a transmission from the Andromeda with a mission clock counting down from 8 hrs and a set of coordinates.
