USS Don Johnson NCC-61701

Host Toros says:
The USS Don Johnson is slowly on its return to SB320 after a miscommunication between Starbase Operations, the USS Fairfaucet and the USS Don Johnson.
Host Toros says:
The bridge staff is gathered but still at their duty stations on the bridge to determine their next course of action.
Host Toros says:
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Resume Mission >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
::on the bridge at the conn::
OPS_Ens_Donovan says:
:On the bridge, monitoring::
CEO_LtJG_Lane says:
::in engineering continuing with routine diagnostics::
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
*TO*: Security Report please.
TO_Ltjg_Ki says:
*CTO*: Security teams are standing down.
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
*TO*: Please report to the bridge to tactical when you are done.
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
OPS: Ensign Donovan, ETA to the Starbase?
TO_Ltjg_Ki says:
*CTO*:  I'm on my way
OPS_Ens_Donovan says:
CTO: About five minutes
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
OPS: Ensign, prepare ship for docking procedures. Prepare all moorings.
OPS_Ens_Donovan says:
CTO: Assuming we go to warp
TO_Ltjg_Ki says:
::heads towards a turbo lift::
OPS_Ens_Donovan says:
CTO: We're about a light year away if that helps
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
OPS: Ensign thank you. Make course to Starbase 320, Warp One and Engage. Slow down to 1/4 impulse when we are approaching the station and go into automatic docking pattern.
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
*CEO*: How are we doing down their Chief?
OPS_Ens_Donovan says:
CTO: Understood. ::relays the information to the helm::
CEO_LtJG_Lane says:
::mutters to herself as she watches the readings:: *CTO*: All set Lieutenant.
TO_Ltjg_Ki says:
::arrives on the bridge::
Host Toros says:
ACTION: The Don Johnson jumps to warp and is a few minutes out from the Starbase.
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
*CEO*: Please make ready for system shutdown when we dock and make requisitions for anything we may need.
TO_Ltjg_Ki says:
::running standard scans of the Starbase::
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
OPS: Ensign, I need you to do the same and submit any supplies or work you need done. Might as well take advantage of Starbase time.
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
COMM: SB320: Starbase 320, This is Lieutenant Telarus. Requesting clearance for docking and instructions.
CEO_LtJG_Lane says:
*CTO*: Understood, Lieutenant
OPS_Ens_Donovan says:
CTO: Permission to begin standard shore leave rotations when we arrive?
Host Cmdr_Meaterpad says:
@COMM: USS Don Johnson: This is Starbase Three-Two-Zero, Request denied.  As I tried to explain to your Captain a few minutes ago Lieutenant, we need the space in the dock for the USS Fairfaucet.
OPS_Ens_Donovan says:
::wonders why the captain is never actually here::
TO_Ltjg_Ki says:
::not at all surprised by the conflicting orders::
CEO_LtJG_Lane says:
::prepares the supply list for Operations to submit with other requests, notes that the list is short considering how recent they were at Starbase::
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
COMM: Commander Meaterpad: Sir with respect, we still need to complete repair and replenishment operations. There are no other docking slots?
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
OPS: Hold distributing the order for shore leave.
Host Cmdr_Meaterpad says:
@::checks his PADD while looking out at the stars in the direction of the Don Johnson:: COMM: Telarus: I would check with your Engineering Department Lieutenant, unless you've engaged in battle during your 'long' trip back, we read all repairs complete and your ship is not due to receive any new supplies.
TO_Ltjg_Ki says:
::reviews the scans of the station he took a few minutes ago::
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
OPS: Ensign also run diagnostics make sure we don't need any repairs or maintenance. Coordinate with the Chief of Engineering.
Host Cmdr_Meaterpad says:
ACTION: The USS Don Johnson drops out of warp near the Starbase and slows to sub-light speeds in a slow orbit near the Starbase.
TO_Ltjg_Ki says:
::doesn't notice anything too unusual::
TO_Ltjg_Ki says:
::runs more scans now that they are closer::
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
COMM: Commander Meaterpad: Sir we still have minor work orders to fulfill, these need to be completed before we can resume patrol.
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
TO: Prepare all security teams for rotation on and off the station for patrol duty of the ship and leave.
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
OPS: Inform all department heads to submit shore leave requests and submit reports.
TO_Ltjg_Ki says:
CTO:  Is there some reason we don't trust station security to do their job?
Host Cmdr_Meaterpad says:
@::speaks frankly:: COMM: Telarus: Your request is denied Lieutenant.  We have assessed your need and based on the needs of Starfleet and all the other ships you see entering and leaving the dock, your priority for entry is extremely low.  I believe your ship's staff is capable of completing these repairs I'm reading here.
OPS_Ens_Donovan says:
CTO: Will do
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
COMM: Commander Meaterpad: Sir if we cannot dock, request to allow our crew to beam aboard for shore leave until we can dock.
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
::ponders even with his low priority why the Commander is being resistant. Standard things that can be completed by a Starbase would take a bit longer by ship personnel::
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
*CEO*: Looks like we won't be docking for a bit. Please make your way to the bridge when you are done so we can review department reports and requests. Also please submit to Ensign Donovan, including shore leave requests.
Host Cmdr_Meaterpad says:
@::sighs:: COMM: Telarus: Captain Neepad has extended the utmost courtesy to your Captain and crew and has only received insolence and intolerance in return.  Your request for personnel transfer while ship is on station awaiting orders is denied.  
Host Cmdr_Meaterpad says:
@COMM: Telarus: Please proceed to these coordinates and hold station.  ::transmits coordinates a few thousand kilometers away from the main traffic of the Starbase's main entry point but adjacent to its position.
CEO_LtJG_Lane says:
*CTO*: Understood, supply lists and reports have been submitted.  I'm on my way up.  
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
COMM: Commander Meaterpad: We have had issues with your commanding officer true, but professionally sir, we are Starfleet Personnel requesting permission to come aboard a Federation station. Why are we being denied sir?
TO_Ltjg_Ki says:
::finds nothing unusual in the latest scans of the station::
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
::sends message to TO:: TO: Scan station with Vroa adaptation on sensors.
Host Cmdr_Meaterpad says:
@COMM: Telarus: Unless your crew has a specific need, we are quite busy over here.  I would like to speak to your Captain once he is available, and if there's nothing else?  Starbase 320 out.
TO_Ltjg_Ki says:
::makes the adjustments as ordered and reinitiates scans of the station::
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
::begins to ponder, crosses his leg over the other, and becomes pensive:: Self: What is going on over there?
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
OPS: Comply with the instructions the Commander gave for holding pattern and increase power to the sensors.
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
OPS / TO: Opinions on the Commander's demeanor towards us?
TO_Ltjg_Ki says:
CTO:  Sensors don't detect any Vroa beings or technology aboard the station.
OPS_Ens_Donovan says:
CTO: You know, I'm showing four free docking bays on the station. I wonder why they need so many free.
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
*CEO*: To the bridge please. Need all available senior staff.
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
OPS: Exactly.
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
TO: Scan also the Fairfaucet and any escorting ship along with the station.
TO_Ltjg_Ki says:
::is going to be standing here and running scans for hours::  CTO: Will do.
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
OPS: Check comm traffic for the last 72 hours incoming and outgoing from the station. Look for any abnormal signals, something like if someone wanted to hide a transmission like piggy backing on a carrier wave of another transmission.
CEO_LtJG_Lane says:
::leaves engineering and takes the lift up to the bridge::
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
OPS: Ensign also recall all personnel back to their stations until further notice. Send word to the Captain as well please.
CEO_LtJG_Lane says:
::walks in and takes her place at engineering:: CTO: Reporting as ordered Lieutenant.  
Host Cmdr_Meaterpad says:
ACTION: The USS Don Johnson comes to an all stop at the coordinates indicated by Starbase 320 holding station.
OPS_Ens_Donovan says:
CTO: I'm just going to break into their mainframe and find out what's going on. I'm sick of this.
TO_Ltjg_Ki says:
::starts scanning the ships docked with the station one by one::
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
TO: Anything result wise on the scans?
CEO_LtJG_Lane says:
OPS: Ensign Donavan, did you received the Engineering reports and supply lists?
OPS_Ens_Donovan says:
::begins breeching about 3 dozen Starfleet Security protocols and hacks their computer core:
OPS_Ens_Donovan says:
CEO: I did. What's up with the five *cases* of Saurian Brandy? Does anyone really need that much?
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
OPS: Hide it, make it standard LCARS transmission and log updates to Starfleet.
CEO_LtJG_Lane says:
OPS: Was it only 5?  Someone forgot the 0, it should have been 50
OPS_Ens_Donovan says:
CTO: If there's one thing I can do, it's cover my tracks.
TO_Ltjg_Ki says:
CTO: I hope he covers his tracks, because if he doesn't you're the one who will be busted down to ensign.  Just saying
OPS_Ens_Donovan says:
CEO: You are getting One. And you must share.
OPS_Ens_Donovan says:
CTO: Okay. I hacked their computer there, and aside from a distraught ensign...Cherry having her cat die, absolutely nothing of any interest has happened on this station. Poor kitty.
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
CEO: Opinions on what is going on? The first officer is denying beaming over and docking, despite room.
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
TO: Anything yet on the scans?
CEO_LtJG_Lane says:
OPS: Of course, first poker party of the tour
Host Cmdr_Meaterpad says:
ACTION: An encrypted message is received from the on duty Starbase 320 Communications Officer offering her assistance to the Don Johnson in their search of their database.
TO_Ltjg_Ki says:
CTO:  Nothing unusual
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
OPS: Send to Captain's ready room. ::gets up straightens uniform and heads to ready room::
OPS_Ens_Donovan says:
:;sends an encrypted message back saying he's sorry about Cherry's cat::
OPS_Ens_Donovan says:
CTO: We have a captain? ::surprised::
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
::turns on display in Captain's ready room:: COMM: SB320 <encrypted>: Channel Open.
CEO_LtJG_Lane says:
*CTO*: I have no idea, Lieutenant.  Unless they figure some kind of snafu and we'll be shipped out soon.
TO_Ltjg_Ki says:
::continues scanning everything he can get a fix on::

Host Ens_Cherry says:
@COMM: CTO: Starbase 320 here, how can we help?
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
COMM: Ensign Cherry: My condolences about your cat, is there anything we can do to help you with your loss?
Host Ens_Cherry says:
@COMM: CTO: Uhm... No, though I don't know why you are scanning my personal communique's.  Care to offer an explanation before I report this incident to my CO?
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
COMM: Ensign Cherry: I see you are down and to the point. I wanted to ask you what is going on over on your station. Is there anything out of the ordinary? We are getting static on this end and can't tell why? I am being covert with that comment as not to alarm suspicion, but if you insist then to the point.
Host Ens_Cherry says:
@::raises an eyebrow:: COMM: Telarus: Uhm... I'm just an Ensign, and it's near the end of my shift.  Is this a prank call?
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
COMM: Ensign Cherry: This is no joke Ensign. I wish it were. I think you inadvertently notice our attempt to discover what is going on over there. Your command staff have been for the lack of the better term, weird. Also they have been abrasive to our actions, even operating covertly. We just requested to dock and or beam over and were denied despite no orders to the contrary.
CTO_Lt_Telarus says:
COMM: Ensign Cherry: There are available ports, we were diverted from a distress signal, we even had a Vroa ship that tired to enter the Starbase operating area. A shuttle which some technology can not be explained or even seen as assigned to your station. We need your help.
Host Ens_Cherry says:
@::sighs:: COMM: Telarus: Stand by, Captain Neepad has been alerted to your request and has asked to speak to your Captain.  ::feels wierd saying this:: I'm sorry... But normal Starfleet Operations are not strange Lieutenant. ::close the comm and forwards the call to Captain Neepad::
