Ship's Log, Stardate 11301.20, Captain Ayidee recording.  The Cherokee is approaching Starbase 33 for our scheduled system refit on schedule.  The last of the system tests are under way and I am confident we will be ready once we reach dock.

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Begin Mission >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::In her quarters, getting dressed, making sure all three of her blades are in place and hidden.::

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::after making sure her family was fed, Kyleigh got ready for duty and she heads for the Bridge to start her day.::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::In quarters, reviewing crew rotation schedules while cleaning up the breakfast dishes.::  Computer: Accept report and forward to required parties as is.

Host aFCO-McIntyre says:
::taking one last look in the mirror to make sure her uniform was spotless and straight.::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Finished shining his shoes, Wally is now just putting them on.  He is listening to Klingon Klassic Rock, as played by the computer::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
::Sets down a bowl of Feline Nutritional supplement for chopwI' along with a bowl of fresh water::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Keeping one blade underneath her shirt, one hanging on a string down her back and a third on her leg, she straightens and heads out the door on her way to the bridge.::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
chopwI': Behave yourself today.  No shredded bedding when I come in!

Host aFCO-McIntyre says:
::walking to the door of her quarters, she opens it and walks out into the corridor, turning right for the Turbolift.::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Brings empty glass and breakfast plate to Replicator's recycler and quickly steps into the loo to sonic blast his teeth::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Grabs PADD and heads for the door.::  *Pat*: For your nosey information, I am now leaving my quarters for the Bridge.  No more "transfer of residence requests" better pass my eyes again.

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
<chopwI'>: :: Wraps herself around Q'ten's legs trying her best to trip him up::

Host aFCO-McIntyre says:
::stops at the Turbolift waiting for it to open::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::After one last look in the mirror, he rushes out of his quarter's door and to the Turbolift::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Reaches the Turbolift on her own level and waits patiently.::

Host aFCO-McIntyre says:
::the Turbolift doors open.  She enters and orders the bridge::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
<Pat> *CO*: Sir, I have no idea what you are ::Breaks up into laughter.::  Er, what you are talking about, Captain.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::When the Turbolift arrives, Wally steps in::  TL Computer: Bridge, please.

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::the Turbolift stops at the Bridge and she walks over to her post::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Steps onto the Turbolift:: Computer: Bridge.

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
::Picks up the ocelot and places her on the bed:: chopwI':  I'm serious chopwI'.  Behave yourself or I will have you shipped back to father.  Now I have work to do.  When we get to the Starbase I promise, we'll go hunt birds or something in the station arboretum.

Host aFCO-McIntyre says:
::the TL doors open and she walks across the bridge to her seat at the helm::

Host aFCO-McIntyre says:
OPS:  Good morning!  That was a nice get together last night.

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
::Grabs his sash from the closet and places it over his shoulder::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Arrives on bridge, exits Turbolift half expecting to see a hung over Vulcan.  Goes to chair, left of CO’s::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
::Heads for the door and into the corridor::

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
aFCO:  It was, wasn't it?

Host aFCO-McIntyre says:
OPS:  It is nice to know my fellow bridge members.  That Counselor has a great sense of humor!

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Sits and logs onto console.  Checks Sickbay reports to see if the Vulcan died of alcohol poisoning or something.  Sees no mention of CEO::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Steps off the Turbolift onto the bridge and walks over to the Science station and relieves the officer there::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
::Steps into the TL:: TL: Bridge.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Walks down corridor.::  *Pat*: I'm sure.  Don't forget, I have final say over "synchronized leave schedules" for this, and any other, layover.  ::Climbs into Jeffries Tube access and starts the 5 deck climb.::

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
aFCO:  I guess I missed it, I had a lot on my mind last night.

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
::Steps out of the Turbolift onto the bridge:: ALL: Please , no one get up on my account!  ::Takes the Tactical station::

Host aFCO-McIntyre says:
:;turns to look at the Klingon::  CTO:  Ok, if you insist!  ::laughing::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Smiles faintly::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Rushes past deck 2, almost hitting a hole where a crewman is examining part of the IDF.::  Crewman: Sorry, keep up the good work!

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Hears OPS talking to FCO and surmises she's not a fan::  OPS: Everything alright, Commander?  You said you had things on your mind.  I don't suppose you wanted to talk to a counselor or something, would you?  ::Sounds hopeful, but realistic::

Host aFCO-McIntyre says:
::checks her console for her report when the CO makes his appearance on the bridge::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Gets to deck 1 and drops into Ready Room.  Takes a second to straighten tunic and then steps out onto the Bridge.::  All: Good day, anything of note to report?

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
ALL: Captain on the bridge!!!

Host aFCO-McIntyre says:
ALL:  Captain on the bridge.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Doesn't hear a response::  OPS: No, I didn't think so.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
All: As you were.  If I had a credit for every time I've heard that I'd be able to clear the tab from last night's shin dig immediately.

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::thinks about how irritating that phrase was on her ship that she banned it.::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
CTO: You didn't see a staggering Vulcan on your way to the bridge, did you?

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::mumbles something about gross stupidity in proclaiming the obvious::

Host aFCO-McIntyre says:
CO:  Sir, we are two days out from Starbase 33.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
CO: Good morning, Sir.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
CNS: Good morning.
aFCO: Good to know we're still on schedule.

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
CNS:  I've already taken care of the situation that had me concerned.  And nothing personal, I have had my fair share of counselors in my lifetime.  I know what my problems are so let leave it at that, okay?

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
CO: Medical is all set now. The small outbreak I informed you about a few days ago is taken care of. It's all cleared up.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
All: And for the record, should a nosey Tellarite ask, I didn't sleep in the Ready Room, I just exited the Jeffries Tubes in there because the ones on the Bridge are locked.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
OPS: I know about your history with counselors.  I've read your file.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
CMO: The Starbase will be relieved to know it's contained, or cleared up.

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Looks over at the CNS:: CNS: Perhaps not something to discuss on the bridge?

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
CMO: I'd never discuss contents, Sir.

ACTION:  The Cherokee is at the outer markers, having received permission from Starbase 33 to dock, berthing deck 4, slip 28.

Host aFCO-McIntyre says:
CO:  Entering space dock, deck 4. :;taps her console using breaking thrusters to enter slip 28::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Sighs:: Self: I hate overnight sickbay shift and pulling doubles.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
aFCO: Acknowledged.  
OPS: Confirm all departments have turned in their Diagnostic reports for the refit crews and then transmit to Starbase Engineering.

ACTION:  Starbase 33 takes over after the Cherokee has docked.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Will be glad to get off the ship and onto the station.  Seeing some other people will be a welcomed change::

Host aFCO-McIntyre says:
CO:  Sir, the Starbase is taking over and we are now on station power.  
:;taps her console and begins shutting down her systems::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
CO: Powering down tactical systems.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
aFCO: Acknowledged.
CTO: Post a security team at all access points, including working Transporter pads for the duration.  Station is taking over, but let's not break our good habits.

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::preparing the refit repairs and requests to forward to the Starbase.::  CO:  All departments have submitted the requests, I just organized in a single cohesive document.  All I need to do is to press send.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Signs off of computer system::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
CO: Teams are already assigned sir.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
OPS: Then press away.  The sooner they get in the sooner they get done.  At least that's what I heard.

Host aFCO-McIntyre says:
::waiting to be told who will be going first to the Starbase::

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::sends off the request orders::  CO:  Done.

Host aFCO-McIntyre says:
CO:  Helm on station power.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
All: Ensure "skeletal" crew levels for the duration, and see that all shifts have sufficient time off during the down time.

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
:: Waiting to be dismissed and dreading whatever "redecorations" chopwI' may have come up with this time::

Host aFCO-McIntyre says:
CO:  Aye Sir!

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Nods, knowing that sickbay already knows what to do by heart.::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
All: Then dismissed.  Enjoy the time off.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
CO: I'll be on the station, preparing to interview for the counseling department, Sir.  Should you need me for anything...

Host aFCO-McIntyre says:
CO:  Yes Sir!  You don't have to tell me twice!

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
::Heads for the Turbolift::

Host aFCO-McIntyre says:
:;gets up from her station and moves to the TL::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
CNS: Understood, let me know if you need my input or have any issues I can help with.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Exits bridge::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
::Exits the TL and jogs down the corridor to his quarters::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Raises an eyebrow, curious as to no orders for a meeting with the Admiral for a debriefing.:: Self: Oh well. Let's see...::looks at her PADD and opens up one of her own restricted files and checks the data:: They're on this Starbase now? Hmm...I must have that conversation with them, then. ::Closes the file and walks to the TL to leave the ship.::

Host aFCO-McIntyre says:
:;exits at her floor and goes to her quarters to change clothes::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
::Enters his quarters and breaths a sigh of relief as he looks around and sees no apparent damage::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Leaves the Cherokee to find Starfleet's Personnel Department on Starbase 33::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
::Hears a low rumble of a growl and thud as chopwI' jumps down from whatever he was perched on and comes running::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
OOD: You have the Bridge.  I am available if there are any issues requiring my attention.  ::Turns and exits through the Ready Room, grabbing travel bag before entering the Jeffries tubes for the trip to quarters.::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Steps off the Cherokee, walking right off to find the obscure bar on the other end of the Starbase.::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
::Picks up the ocelot and holds him close:: chopwI':: There's my guy!  Are you ready to go get some exercise?

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Enters Quarters, then reaches into closet to grab travel bag.::  Barney: Come on, we've got to vacate the premises for a while until the work is done.  Don't make me sedate you for the blasted trip.

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
::chopwI' starts to purr as he rubs his head against Q'ten's chest::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
chopwI' I know, you've been cooped up in here for a long time.  Now I'm gonna make it up to you.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Grabs the vole and puts him into the bag, then exits and heads for the station.::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
::Sets the ocelot down on the bed and pulls off his tunic::

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::heads to her quarters and changes into her favorite off duty outfit, she packs a bag to meet her family on the Starbase.::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
chopwI': But first I have to change clothes.
::pulls a long sleeve leather shirt from the wardrobe and puts it on, followed by a traditional Klingon vest.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Is used to traveling light.  He hadn't much to pack, and seeing as how he just unpacked thought it a shame to put it all back into luggage.  One of the best things about being rich is you can always by what you need on the fly::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<MO Rhapsody> *CMO*: Ma'am. You left your bag just outside your office. I tried to catch you before you left. You might need whatever's in there.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Arrives at the Personnel Offices and approaches the receptionist::  Receptionist: Hello, I'm Wally Dan...  I mean, Ensign Daniels, from the Cherokee.  I was supposed to...

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
<Receptionist>:  CNS: Yes, Ensign Daniels, I've been expecting you.  I have something for you.  ::Hands CNS a PADD::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Slows down to a stop and puts her hand up to her forehead.:: *MO*: Thank you, Rhaps. Could you just have someone send it to my temp quarters on the station? I'd appreciate it. You on first rotation for shore leave?

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Gets in Turbolift, requesting level 19, section 33, where the crew has been set up a block of temporary quarters for the refit.  Feels the familiar "bump" as the car passes into the Station network.::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
Receptionist: What's this?

Host Alexandra says:
::walking through the promenade, ducking into a shop to see if anyone is following her::

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::she makes her way to meet up with her family when something caught her eye, she changed course to investigate.::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<MO Rhapsody> *CMO*: I am, you want to meet up for a coffee? We never have time to chat on our shifts in the bay.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Exits Turbolift and walks to temp quarters, keys in access code and enters.  Puts Barney's bag down, let's him out, then takes a walk about the quarters to check them out.::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
<Receptionist>: CNS:  Everything you requested of our department has been taken care of.  Everything you need; appointment schedules, applications from the potential position candidates, locations of meeting places.  I've taken the liberty of upgrading your accommodations while on the station.  The department has a few suites for VIPs.

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
*MO Rhapsody*: I know...Sure. you can pick the place, I just have a quick errand to run before I get there. ::Starts walking again.::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
Receptionist: Am I a VIP?

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
<Receptionist>: CNS: No.  But, they were all empty and seeing as how you'll be using our facilities so much, we figured “why not”?  It says in your personnel file you just started like, last week.  How's it going?

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Satisfied with what is there, exits and heads for the merchants section of the station.::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Starts to cross the promenade on her way to her destination::

Host Alexandra says:
::seeing no one, she steps out of the shop and continues on her way::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
Receptionist: Well, you know, it’s hard to fit in right away for some, I guess.  I try too hard with some, not hard enough with others.  I don't know.  Maybe I'm no good at this job.  I think they all hate me.

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Accidentally bumps into someone, her mind somewhere totally different. She spins around:: Stranger: Oh, I'm sorry, didn't see you there.

Host Alexandra says:
::turning, absolute terror on her face, she sees the CMO:  CMO:  No problem.  ::does her best not to run::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
<Receptionist>::Laughs, politely::  CNS: I'm sure it isn't all that bad.  I can't believe they let someone as young as you fill the position you're in but we see you're highly qualified.  Experience is all you need and confidence.  We have literature on this.  ::Hands him a pamphlet from a stack.  It reads: “So, it’s your first week on a new Starship.”::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Frowns, seeing that something is clearly wrong with this woman. Looking straight into her green eyes,:: Alexandra: Are you alright?

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::she approaches the area where she thought she saw something unusual and, to her surprise, there was nothing there.::  Self:  How odd, I could have sworn I saw something here.

Host Alexandra says:
::seeing a TL she goes to it and enters::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
::Finds himself on the base , chopwI' still held to his chest and looking for a directory to the arboretum::

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::she was about to got meet up with her family when a strange noise got her attention so she continued on her investigation.::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Watches her leave in a hurry and simply shrugs the incident off and continues on her merry way.::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
Receptionist: Thanks.  And thanks for the upgrade.  I'd ask you to dinner but, I'm sure a nice girl like you is taken and thinks I'm too young to be seen in public with, so I won't ask.

Host Alexandra says:
::her heart feels like it is beating out of her chest::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
<Receptionist>: CNS: Thanks, it’s not your age, I'm married, is all.  You need to relax.  You must have one friend on that new ship of yours.

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
::Heads off to find the arboretum::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
Receptionist: Well, there is this Klingon guy who doesn't seem to be annoyed by me.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Enters the merchant’s section, then moves to an overhang to do some alien watching.::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Finally reaches the bar and looks around for her contact, wondering where they are, knowing that they were supposed to be here.::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
<Receptionist>: CNS: Then, I suggest you find this Klingon right away and ask him to show you how to relax, Klingon style.  I think you could use it.

Host Alexandra says:
::steps off the TL on level 19::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
Receptionist: That's good.  I might just do that.  Thanks, and your husband;-‘s a lucky guy.  ::Takes PADD and exits Personnel Offices::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
::Steps into the arboretum and looks around, impressed by all the greenery, and sets chopwI' down in the grass::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
<chopwI'> ::lets out a loud meow and starts rolling around and stretching in the grass::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
chopwI':  See?  I told you I'd make it up to you.  Now go run, climb, be free!

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Frowns that her contact didn't show up where they were supposed to be and fully planned on reprimanding them when she got a hold of them::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Finds a place to sit down to review the material given him.  After a minute, *CTO*: Mr. Q'ten, Sir? I hope I'm not interrupting, but if you had nothing else better to do...

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Wonders how many beings pass through these passageways every month.  Guessing there will be opportunity to find out soon enough.  Turns and moves towards the closest shop, thinking it's time to replace some of the throw rugs when we get back to quarters.::

CTO_CDT_Q`ten says:
*CNS*: I'm in the arboretum with chopwI' if you'd care to join us.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
*CTO*: I’m on my way.  :Is happy to be wanted::
