Mission Summary 11002.25

The Don Johnson crew has returned to their ship and the ship has launched from DS102 in a patrol pattern as they await their new orders.

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

EO_Ens_Garlingus says:
::walks around main engineering with a padd examining the ship's operation with a satisfied look::

CEO_Lt_MacLeod says:
::in main engineering, standing at master control console::

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
::still sipping on his first coffee:: OPS: Any word from command yet?

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
::comes out of her ready room and goes to her chair::

OPS_Truus says:
::on the bridge, anxiously eyeing his console:: XO: Nope. Still waiting.

EO_Ens_Garlingus says:
::walks over to the CEO:: CEO: Overall looks good sir, How did it go with Davis? ::hands the padd to the CEO::

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
OPS: Very Well... ::stands up:: ALL: CAPTAIN ON THE BRIDGE

OPS_Truus says:
::quickly stands at attention::

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
XO: Geez, I wish you wouldn't do that!  All: As you were, everyone!

CEO_Lt_MacLeod says:
EO:  Don't ask.  ::takes PADD and looks it over, nods:: Nice.  I am impressed. 

OPS_Truus says:
::considers staying at attention to embarrass the CO, but doesn't:: CO: Still awaiting orders, Captain.

EO_Ens_Garlingus says:
::nods:: CEO: Understood.  Where do you think we'll be off to next?

CMO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::is puttering around sickbay, treating some of the crew for hangovers::

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
*CEO*: Seamus, What’s our status?

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
OPS: Very well, let's just go on a normal patrol route then.

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
XO: Do you have your report ready, Commander?

CEO_Lt_MacLeod says:
EO:  Far far away from DS 102 I hope.

ACTION:  The operations console beeps with an incoming message.

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
::points to her chair:: CO: Right there for you captain.

CEO_Lt_MacLeod says:
*XO*:  We are five by five, Commander.

OPS_Truus says:
CO: Yes sir. I'll set a-- ::looks down:: CO: Incoming message. Sending it to your console

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
::looks down at her chair:: XO: So it is.

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
*CEO*:I saw Davis report Seamus

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
::takes the PADD off her chair and sits down, beginning to read

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
OPS: Thank you, Ensign.

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::exits the lift, heads to her station, nods at both McPhee and Lemmick::

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
CTO: Hello, Commander.

CEO_Lt_MacLeod says:
*XO*:  Did you?  So did I.

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CTO: Little too much to drink Commander? 

EO_Ens_Garlingus says:
::nods and walks away as the CEO talks to the XO over the comm system:: Self: I wonder how far?

ACTION:  Message reads...  TO:  Captain Newell-McPhee, Commanding Officer - USS Don Johnson  CC and other information follows.

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: Captain.  

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
XO: Commander, I've yet to drink too much ::grins and winks::

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
*CEO*: Yes I did...it didn't sound to pleasing to hear what he had to say.

CEO_Lt_MacLeod says:
*XO*:  Hope you didn't take too much of it to heart, sir.

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
*CEO*: We'll meet later Seamus.

CEO_Lt_MacLeod says:
*XO*:  Any time, Commander.

EO_Ens_Garlingus says:
::calls in a few crewmen and hands each of them a kit to inspect some EPS relays on the lower decks::

ACTION:  Captain, it is with misgivings that I send these orders.  After studying the reports concerning the past mission a review board was considered.  However, with the current situation, those proceedings will be postponed, possibly canceled pending the results of this mission.

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
::finishes reading the report:: XO: Commander, I believe you did what you could under the circumstances.  Any punishment I MAY have been considering will be forgotten.

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
::frowns a bit reading the first part of the orders::

EO_Ens_Garlingus says:
::takes out a tricorder and begins fiddling with it walking back to the CEO:: CEO: What was that about?

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CO: Appreciate that Captain...I don’t like the looks of that.

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::tries to hide a grin as she thinks about Norris and his toothbrush::

ACTION:  You are to report to Betazed to assist in the search and rescue of four adolescents that have disappeared from the capital city.  It is believed that the youths have wandered into the rainforest, however due to the density of the life forms there, no success has been achieved.

CEO_Lt_MacLeod says:
EO:  I don't know.   Yet.  Maybe the XO is going to demote me.

ACTION:  Captain, it is imperative that these youths be found. Information files are attached concerning each of the four. End of Message

CEO_Lt_MacLeod says:
::smiles at the EO::

EO_Ens_Garlingus says:
::chuckles:: CEO: The worst thing the command could do is demoralize the Chief Engineer.  Toilets would be exploding at random everywhere!

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
All: We have been ordered to Betazed to assist in a search and rescue of four young people who have disappeared from the capital city

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
OPS: Plot a course, best speed.

EO Reese says:
 ::steps up to the CEO and EO::  Don't worry chief, if old Spots tries anything, we got your back.  ::grins::

OPS_Truus says:
CO: I hope they're not Betazoids themselves. That would be like finding a needle in a haystack... ::sets a course::

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: Do we have their information, Ma'am? 

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
::downloads a copy of the files to a PADD:: CO: With your permission I am going to give a copy of these to the Doctor.

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
::forwards the files to the CTO:: CTO: I'm forwarding it to you now, Commander.

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
OPS: Engage, Ensign.

OPS_Truus says:
All: Going to warp. ::engages warp drive::

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
XO: Good idea, Commander.  ::whispers:: You just want to see your date again, don't you? ::smiles::

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::glances at the readout on her board:: CO: Aye, it's coming in now

EO_Ens_Garlingus says:
::nods to Reese and chuckles louder:: Reese: You said it.  ::hears the warp drive increase its output and goes to the main engineering console to ensure a proper mixture rate:: CEO: Looks like we're at warp.

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CO: I am going to stop by Engineering as well and have a conversation with Seamus about this report as well.

CEO_Lt_MacLeod says:
::looks at the warp core::  EO:  Well, we didn't go boom, all is right with the universe.

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
XO: Don't be too hard on him.

OPS_Truus says:
CO: What do we know about the people we're looking for?

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
::chuckles as the doors close:: TL: Sick Bay

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
OPS: They are four adolescents that Command says it is imperative that they be found.  I'll forward you the files on them.

EO_Ens_Garlingus says:
::shakes his head and smiles as he watches the outputs:: CEO: That's one way of putting it. ::looks up at the core with an impressed look:: CEO: Amazing we're able to stand so close to such an intense reaction chamber.  In the early 21st century they could not come within 50 feet of an operating reactor because of their primitive shielding.

CMO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::seats herself at her desk now that sickbay is practically empty and proceeds to catch up on some paperwork::

OPS_Truus says:
CO: Thanks. ETA 6 hours.

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
::finds him self walking faster towards sick bay and enters::

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::reads the information, then alerts her people to ready two search teams as she forwards the information to them::

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
OPS: Thank you ::forwards him the files::

CEO_Lt_MacLeod says:
EO:  The old days would have been fun.  Do me a favor and keep an eye on our warp field geometry, new warp coils take a little while to break in.

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
CTO: We escaped a big one, Commander.

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: Seems that way, Captain 

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: Ma'am.  I've got two teams that will be ready by the time we get there.  I'd like to have a third team standing by, though

CMO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::gets up to get herself a mint tea with just a hint of sugar. sits down reading a data padd and sipping her tea::

EO_Ens_Garlingus says:
::nods and pulls up the warp field operational diagram and eyes the field intensity in correlation to the power output:: CEO: Aye sir.

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
CTO: Go ahead, Commander, I trust your judgment.

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
::stand in the door way to her office and doesn't say a word and just smiles::

EO_Ens_Garlingus says:
::points out minor variances in some coupling alignments causing inefficiencies in the field generation:: CEO: Not too shabby, I'll keep an eye on it throughout my shift.  I wonder if the senior staff will be called in for a briefing before we get to wherever we're going.

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
CTO: I would not want to face board of review for this last mission.

CMO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::feels someone watching her and looks up. She gives him a tiny smile:: XO: You look like the cat that ate the canary.

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: I wouldn't want to either.  But we did save the ship

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
CTO: That we did.

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CMO: What...I look that guilty?

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::Grins:: CO: Not that that would save us if the desk jockeys wanted to nit-pick

CEO_Lt_MacLeod says:
EO: Heh, since when do they include us knuckle draggers in briefings, other than to say, keep things running.

OPS_Truus says:
::goes over to the replicator and gets a drink::

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
CTO: And there's always afterward.  I hate to say it, but it's true.

CMO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::shakes her head:: XO: No. You just have a Cheshire cat kind of grin... that can never mean anything good... ::frowns slightly:: I didn't do anything bad did I?

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::Nods::

EO_Ens_Garlingus says:
::makes a face and nods:: CEO: So true.  I've heard that the only reason they include us in any operational meetings is to assert their complaints onto the department.  ::in a mocking voice:: 'My replicator make my coffee too hot', 'My sonic shower makes a humming noise'... ::sighs::

CEO_Lt_MacLeod says:
EO:  My favorite is "My Captain's chair squeaks when I do this".  ::grins::

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
::laughs:: CMO: No Chase no...I brought you a copy of these for personal files...were en-route to Betazed to find four kids lost in a dense forest of some sort. Basically it's getting us out of hot water with Command Review Board which I am more then glad to avoid.

CMO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::nearly drops her mug of tea:: XO: Betazed?

EO_Ens_Garlingus says:
::laughs heartily:: CEO: That night shift man... The stuff they come up with to keep awake.  I did two months on the night shift, it was like a game of trying to get the work done as fast as possible.

OPS_Truus says:
::returns to his console and reads the files the CO sent him::

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CMO: Yeah...that a problem Lieutenant? ::gives his command tone::

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: I have to wonder just who these kids really are to have us go help search for them?

CEO_Lt_MacLeod says:
EO:  Ever play, who can swap out the plasma relay the fastest?  I did it once in 6 minutes.

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
CTO: Must be dignitary's kids or something.

OPS_Truus says:
CTO: They're important. Or their parents are, anyway. They're all the kids of diplomats.

CMO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::raises an eyebrow at his sudden change in tone:: XO: Not at all. Orders are orders

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
CTO: There's your answer!

EO_Ens_Garlingus says:
CEO: No way!  That's not even possible, you have to bypass the flow before the safety interlocks will even allow you to get the access panel off, and those can be on two different decks sometimes!

OPS_Truus says:
Self: An Orion, a human, a Vulcan, and a Klingon.

CSO_LtCmdr_Stidd says:
::Enters the bridge and moves to Sci-1:: CO: Sorry ma'am,  I was in meditation and went too deep.  I lost track of the time.

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
OPS: Oh, fun.  Diplomats.  ::sighs softly:: 

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CMO: Sorry...force of habit. Thanks for dinner last night by the way. Again sometime?

CEO_Lt_MacLeod says:
::smiles::  EO:  Safety interlocks?  

OPS_Truus says:
CTO: At least they won't be hard to find.

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
OPS: It could still be a hard search.  The jungles on Betazed can get pretty thick in places

CMO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::nods looking a little saddened:: XO: Yes, of course.

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
CSO: That's not like you, Commander.  You're usually better at coming out of your trances. I'll forward you the files as well.  We're on our way to Betazed to search for four adolescents who have gone missing from the city.

EO_Ens_Garlingus says:
::laughs:: CEO: You're crazy.  My best is 32 minutes, and that was WITH an assist by an engineering team that was working in the deck above me. ::pulls up a ship's diagram and points:: There, on deck 8 section 4.

OPS_Truus says:
CTO: I wouldn't know. I've never been there.

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CMO: Chase...what is it?

CMO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::shakes her head and forces a smile:: XO: Nothing. Dinner. Sure.

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
OPS: For as rainy as your homeworld can get that's how thick some areas of those jungles can get

CSO_LtCmdr_Stidd says:
CO: Really?  Seems rather odd to use us on such a simple search mission.  Can't the Betazed satellites pick up the kids locations?

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
CTO/OPS: It could be challenging.  But we're up to it, right?

CEO_Lt_MacLeod says:
EO:  If I didn't know better, I'd say that sounds like a challenge.

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CMO: Chase...don’t do that, tell me. ::sits on the edge of the desk:: What's wrong?

OPS_Truus says:
CO: Sure. I like a good challenge.

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
CSO: Planetary authorities aren't having much luck, and it's not looking good.  We were called in to keep it a bit hushed.

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: Of course Ma'am.  Our best people will see to that

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
CTO: I'm sure of that, Commander.

Reese says:
EO: Don't challenge the CEO, cost me three night duty shifts in a row one time

CSO_LtCmdr_Stidd says:
All: Do we know the races of these juveniles?

OPS_Truus says:
CSO: An Orion, a human, a Vulcan, and a Klingon.

CMO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::takes a deep breath:: XO: Let's just say when I left my homeworld many years ago, I didn't look back. I hate... don't like... being around Betazoids...

EO_Ens_Garlingus says:
::smiles widely:: CEO: Well, only if you feel that you can stay alive long enough for the Chief Engineer to not notice the replicators on deck 4 have all gone out. ::looks over at Reese:: Reese: I think... it'd be worth seeing it done, if nothing just to see it.

CSO_LtCmdr_Stidd says:
Self: Most fascinating.

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CSO: Children of diplomats

CSO_LtCmdr_Stidd says:
::Has a puzzled look on his face::

CEO_Lt_MacLeod says:
::smiles::

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CMO: Chase I wouldn't put you in a situation that you didn't want to. I wont let anyone hurt you.

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
CSO: Why so puzzled, Commander?

EO_Ens_Garlingus says:
::puts the tricorder he was fiddling with away and pulls up duty section rosters:: CEO: I think we can move Reese here to cover me on this shift, and I'll take his night shift.  Reese: What do you think?

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CMO: We'll talk more later okay? Right now I have to go pretend to yell at Seamus okay?

CSO_LtCmdr_Stidd says:
::Looks at the captain:: CO: This mission is not going to be as easy as you might think, especially if the Betazed authorities are having problems.

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
CSO: We're not in this for "easy", Commander.

EO Reese says:
EO:  I'd be fine with it except for one thing.  I'm not on the night shift anymore.  But if you want to take a night shift...  Didn't you come over from the night shift?

CSO_LtCmdr_Stidd says:
All: None of those races are as problematic to the telepaths of Betazed as Ferengi are.  ::Looks at OPS:: OPS: No offence but stating fact.

OPS_Truus says:
CSO: You think maybe the Betazoids themselves are involved in this?

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
OPS: Why would they ask for help if they were in on it, Ensign?

EO_Ens_Garlingus says:
Reese: I did, Humm... ::studies the roster a bit closer:: CEO/Reese: I guess we could go down one section supervisor and keep another on call.  We're pretty light on maintenance coming out of dry-dock.

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
::smiles at Chase as he turns around to leave::

CSO_LtCmdr_Stidd says:
OPS: Not likely given their current status in the Federation, however, we cannot rule out the possibility of foul play in this matter.

CMO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::chuckles:: XO: Okay.

OPS_Truus says:
CO: I mean a splinter group. Rebels. Something like that. ::shrugs::

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO/CSO: Sounds like I had better have a fourth team on stand-by then and send three teams down.  Permission to lead one of the teams, Ma'am

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
::chuckles a bit:: OPS: Rebel Betazoids?  I'm sorry, but that doesn't make sense to me.

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
::heads for main engineering next::

CMO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::drinks the last of her tea and gets up from her desk:: Nurse: If you need me I'll be on the bridge...

OPS_Truus says:
CO: Neither does "unselfish Ferengi", I bet.

Nurse says:
CMO: Yes Doctor.

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
OPS: True.

CSO_LtCmdr_Stidd says:
OPS: Because of the Betazed telepathic capabilities you will not find a more honest race.  They are not capable of hiding such things within their society.

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CSO: But there have been a few in Betazed history that have done just that, Commander

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CSO: Not many, mind you, but they can show up

CSO_LtCmdr_Stidd says:
CTO: Yes, but they have been very few indeed.

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
::enters Engineering and looks for Seamus::

OPS_Truus says:
CSO: Sorry, just throwing ideas around. ::sighs:: CO: Anyway, I'd like to go with one of the away teams. I'm pretty handy with a phaser.

EO Reese says:
CEO:  Spot alert.

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CSO: I agree, but we can't totally rule that out, either.  Better to be safe than sorry

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
OPS: We're not trying to shoot them, Ensign.  But we'll see about putting you on an away team.

CSO_LtCmdr_Stidd says:
OPS: That is fine.  Your ideas are welcome.  There is no need to apologize for that which is expected of you.

EO_Ens_Garlingus says:
::hears Reese and hears the Main Engineering bay doors open:: XO: Commander, what are you doing way down here?

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
Reese: I heard that CREWMAN!

CEO_Lt_MacLeod says:
::looks over and sees the XO::

CMO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::enters the bridge and takes a seat next to the Captain:: 

EO Reese says:
 ::Smiles at the XO::

OPS_Truus says:
CO: I know violence is our last resort, but if these kids have been kidnapped or something, I doubt their captors will just give them up without a fight.

EO_Ens_Garlingus says:
::chuckles at Reese's comment and the XO's reaction::

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CEO/EO: Surprise inspection maybe? I want to talk about this report

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
OPS: True enough. ::turns to the Doctor:: CMO: Hello, Dr. Hogan. How may I be of assistance?

CEO_Lt_MacLeod says:
XO:  Of course, sir.

CMO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::shakes her head with a smirk:: CO: I've never met a Captain who was willing to serve her crew... I thought it was the other way around...

EO_Ens_Garlingus says:
::raises an eyebrow and hands the CEO a padd while moving to the other side of the main engineering display table::

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CEO: Well?

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
::stands with arms crossed::

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
CMO: Well, you don't come up here often, unless you have information or need help.  So what's up?

CMO_LtJg_Hogan says:
CO: Just looking for the mission report. I heard we're heading to Betazed...

CSO_LtCmdr_Stidd says:
::slips over by the CTO acting like he is examining the scanner system and whispers:: CTO: Did you learn anything yet on that special project?

CEO_Lt_MacLeod says:
::half laughs::  XO: Well to honest sir, I didn't read the whole report, just the part giving the DJ the green light.

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
OPS: With the captain’s okay, I'd take you on one of the teams

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
CMO: That we are.  We're aiding in search and rescue of the children of four diplomats who may be lost in the forest.

EO_Ens_Garlingus says:
::pretends to work while pulling up an engineering monitoring camera and zooming in on the XO's left nostril:: 

OPS_Truus says:
CTO: Sure, I'll come with you.

EO Reese says:
 ::whispers::  EO:  Do you have a can of spot remover?

EO_Ens_Garlingus says:
::stifles a laugh and whispers to Reese:: Reese: Knock it off! Less than ten feet!!

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::low voice:: CSO: Some interesting things so far.  ::raises voice:: OPS: Would you make sure the med kits are ready for the Betazed jungle life.  And route them to SEC/TAC

CO_Capt_Newell_McPhee says:
::hears the CTO: CTO/OPS: Yes, Truus, you can go on an away team if it's necessary.

OPS_Truus says:
CTO: I'll get right on it. ::starts tapping away at his console::

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
::glares at Reese:: Reese: You want to spend the rest of your time on the Don Johnson working in waste reclamation? Keep it up and you'll be removing everyone’s SPOTS!!!

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::lowers voice again:: CSO: Highlights, got three hits.  And it looks like your 'friend' is moving towards DS 102
