USS Don Johnson
Stardate 10601.19
Mission #173

Host Susan says:
Mission Summary:
The away team has been received from the surface of Danau and finally awakened after 48 hours.  During their convalescence, it was discovered that they had been infected by a heretofore-unknown pathogen that causes the victim to fall into a deep un-wake able sleep.  No cure was found, but the illness appeared to run its course and the victims have now developed anti-bodies against the pathogen.  All that remains is the Captain's decision.

A decision that would not come but be replaced by a surprise.  Shall we join our intrepid crew and see what the surprise is?

::walks into Sickbay
FCO_Kolchak says:
CTO: Course and speed plotted and laid in sir.

::exits the TL and steps onto the bridge::
CTO_Mahl says:
FCO: Very good.  Engage at maximum warp.
CO_Shemara_Arca says:

Nurse Hathoway: I am not feeling right. I think something is wrong.

::moves over to the CTO and Captain:: Turnbull: Captain welcome on aboard
Host Cpt_Turnbull says:
::notices the scratches and looks worried:: CO: What seems out of sorts?  ::begins scanning the captain with one hand and healing the scratches with the other.

Nurse Hathoway: I think I am pregnant and I need you to verify.
Host Cpt_Turnbull says:
XO: Thank you, Commander.  ::smiles:: It feels good to be back again on a New Orleans’s class vessel.  
XO_Arca says:
Turnbull: Why have we been reassigned?
Host Cpt_Turnbull says:
XO: I'll be briefing you and the Captain on your new orders as we head to Earth.  Hopefully nothing will happen before we are able to get in to the system.
CTO_Mahl says:
FCO: Current speed and ETA to Earth?
Host Cpt_Turnbull says:
<Hathoway> ::looks at the scans and gives a crooked smile:: CO: I didn't realize you were...well, yes, you are pregnant, but extremely early, barely detectable...
CO_Shemara_Arca says:
::smiles::
Host Cpt_Turnbull says:
XO: That will be discussed at the briefing.  Short story, there are members of the crew needed for their specialties and we are to get them there post haste.
CO_Shemara_Arca says:
*XO*: Guess what you are going to be a daddy.
CO_Shemara_Arca says:
Nurse Hathoway: How long to delivery???
XO_Arca says:
Turnbull: What kind of....
XO_Arca says:
::stops and stand still not sure how to react
CTO_Mahl says:

*XO*: Mark?
CTO_Mahl says:
XO: Congratulations, Commander.

CTO_Mahl says:
XO: I guess you don't believe in wasting time.
Host Cpt_Turnbull says:
XO/*CO*: Congratulations on your news.  
XO_Arca says:
Turnbull: Thank you sir
FCO_Kolchak says:
CTO: ETA to Earth is four days at warp eight point eight nine, sir.
Host Cpt_Turnbull says:
<Hathoway> CO: That I'm not sure of, typical gestation for a Vulcan and that for a Klingon are different.  It could be as long as 10 months, which would be the norm for a full Vulcan.
XO_Arca says:
Turnbull: Lets what for the CO in her ready room sir
CTO_Mahl says:
FCO: Very good.  Turnbull: So, we have four days till we arrive at Earth.  That should give us all enough time to be briefed on what is going on.
Host Cpt_Turnbull says:
XO: Everything is under control here, and we have 4 days to discuss the upcoming mission.  Why don't you take some time and spend with your wife.
CO_Shemara_Arca says:
Nurse Hathoway: Ten months sounds about right.  Oh god.  Wonder what Starfleet will say.
XO_Arca says:
Turnbull: Aye sir thank you sir
Host Cpt_Turnbull says:
<Hathoway> CO: On the other hand, it could be as brief as 8 months.
CO_Shemara_Arca says:
Nurse Hathoway: Yes that is true as well.  It could be as short as 8 months.
XO_Arca says:
CTO: You have the bridge and make sure all systems are up and running since I think we are going to need them
CTO_Mahl says:
XO: Of course Commander.  Please give my regards to the mother to be. ::smiles again::
XO_Arca says:
CTO: Will do
XO_Arca says:
::steps back onto the TL:: TL: Sickbay
CTO_Mahl says:
::Turns back to Turnbull:: Turnbull: Well, that will certainly change things around here.
FCO_Kolchak says:
::Checks the course for any possible shortcuts to shorten the trip back home::
Host Cpt_Turnbull says:
CTO: In more ways than one.  Especially if she goes into labor on the bridge.
CTO_Mahl says:
Turnbull: No need to worry, I am still a registered doctor.
