XO_Cmdr_Ramsey says:
::sees the CO leave in a hurry and stands::

OPS_Lt_Cmdr_Naegle says:
CMO/Armen: Yes it was.  I've not only regained that rank but gained another since then.

Host RAdm_Raidon says:
ACTION: A whiskered old man falls the ground with a thud saying, " Ya got me sheriff".

CMO_Lt_Powers says:
Barman: What? Just get the drinks.

Barkeep says:
CIV: The Teal shirts are the geeks, they can't hold their drinks and I clean it up.

CEO_Cmndr_Jarek says:
::Nods and leaves her quarters::

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
Ajax: Do you think that there still is a chance for us to renew them again????

CIV_Ltjg_Telgar says:
Barman: You heard the man. Just get the drinks.

XO_Cmdr_Ramsey says:
::leads Armen back to his quarters::

CTO_Cmdr_Yeung says:

::walks up the entryway to the Apache and heads to his quarters to unpack::

CIV_Ltjg_Telgar says:
:: laughs :: CMO: I understand that. I've had to learn to control my temper. Or at least try to.

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
::is so rapped up in her own emotions, she doesn't sense the CO's pain and anguish::

Host RAdm_Raidon says:
OPS: Well since she won't be doing this, I guess I can. You are hereby promoted to the rank Commander with all it's duties and priviledges....

Host CO_Cpt_Linard says:
CTO: I knew it..... last night.... I could feel it..... something was wrong.....

CTO_Cmdr_Yeung says:
::with a hoarse voice:: CO: What....what are the details...?

OPS_Lt_Cmdr_Naegle says:
::is in shock:: Raidon: I.. I... I... I don't know what to say, sir. Thank you, sir.

CIV_Ltjg_Telgar says:
CMO: My last visit on Avalon Station, I almost ended up in the brig.

Host RAdm_Raidon says:

Raidon: Thank you, again, sir. I don't know what else to say.

CMO_Lt_Powers says:
::takes a swig of his guinness::

CIV_Ltjg_Telgar says:
:: laughs :: CMO: I guess we will have to keep an eye on each other.

Host CO_Cpt_Linard says:
::shakes her head:: CTO: Not too many..... ::coughs slightly:: The Cardassians have said that they didn't detect any survivors...

Host RAdm_Raidon says:
*Telgar*: Please report to my office.

OPS_Lt_Cmdr_Naegle says:
::stands up:: Raidon: Yes, sir.

CTO_Cmdr_Yeung says:
::shakes his head in disbelief:: CO: No, this can't be right...we-we need to the Apache and go look for ourselves...I'll postpone my transfer...

OPS_Lt_Cmdr_Naegle says:

*Raidon*: On my way, Admiral.

CTO_Cmdr_Yeung says:
::fights back his own tears and looks up at the Captain:: CO: Still, someone has to go out there. We can't just take the word of the Cardassians...

CMO_Lt_Powers says:
CIV: Sure.

Host CO_Cpt_Linard says:
::squeezes his arm:: CTO: I knew that something wasn't right.... last night.... I felt the boys.... then....his voice.... he spoke to me....::looks away::... then he was gone.

CIV_Ltjg_Telgar says:
:: walks down the corridor to the Admiral's office ::

OPS_Lt_Cmdr_Naegle says:
::runs into her quarters where the nanny and Armen have gone:: Connie/Armen: Guess what, guys! I've been promoted to Commander!!

CTO_Cmdr_Yeung says:
::lays his hand on hers, then freezes:: CO: Wait a minute... boys?

XO_Cmdr_Ramsey says:
::finishes unpacking and sighs::Self: I know I shouldn't report now. But, I need to...

Host CO_Cpt_Linard says:
::nods:: CTO: The twins.....

CMO_Lt_Powers says:
::finnishes his drink and leaves the bar:: *OPS*: I've lost my drinking partner. You want one?

CIV_Ltjg_Telgar says:

Host RAdm_Raidon says:
CIV: Enter

XO_Cmdr_Ramsey says:
Computer: Locate Captain Linard...

CTO_Cmdr_Yeung says:

CIV_Ltjg_Telgar says:
::walks in:: Raidon: Ltjg Sharra Telgar, reporting as ordered Sir.

OPS_Lt_Cmdr_Naegle says:
*CMO*: Come to my quarters, John.  I've got some great news!!!

Computer says:
Ramsey: Captain Linard is in her quarters.

Host CO_Cpt_Linard says:
::forces a small smile:: CTO: So, I guess he's not really gone, is he?

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
*CO*: Ma'am?? Are you ok?? I sense that you are in pain. Has something happened??

Host RAdm_Raidon says:
::does a double take at the CIV::  CIV:  please, have a seat.

XO_Cmdr_Ramsey says:
::straightens his uniform and heads to the CO's quarters::

CMO_Lt_Powers says:
*OPS*: Umm... Ok... people might talk though. ::heads for Janet's quarters::

CIV_Ltjg_Telgar says:
:: sits :: Raidon:  Aye Sir.

Host CO_Cpt_Linard says:
*FCO*: Yes, but I'll be fine.... Thank you Lieutenant.

Host RAdm_Raidon says:
CIV: You can relax Lieutenant.

CTO_Cmdr_Yeung says:
::looks down:: CO: I guess so...

CIV_Ltjg_Telgar says:
:: relaxes and waits ::

Host RAdm_Raidon says:
CIV: Guess you are wondering why you are here?

CTO_Cmdr_Yeung says:
::suddenly strengthens his resolve and stands up::

XO_Cmdr_Ramsey says:
::rings the chime to the CO's quarters::

CIV_Ltjg_Telgar says:
Raidon: It had crossed my mind Sir.

CTO_Cmdr_Yeung says:
::puts his hands on the captain's shoulders and looks directly in her eyes::

Host CO_Cpt_Linard says:
::stands and hugs the CTO::

CMO_Lt_Powers says:
::rings the chime at Janet's quarters::

CTO_Cmdr_Yeung says:
CO: Then this nails it.You need to go out and find the truth for yourself.

CEO_Cmndr_Jarek says:
::Begins working on his new shield theories::

Host RAdm_Raidon says:
CIV: I've reviewed your record, and want you to consider taking the CTO slot, I have an interest in the Apache, and you fit the bill

Host CO_Cpt_Linard says:
::nods:: CTO: I know Jon.... I know.... I will

Host CO_Cpt_Linard says:

Host RAdm_Raidon says:
CIV: Yes, would be great

CTO_Cmdr_Yeung says:
::looks at the door:: CO: He always intterupts, doesn't he?

XO_Cmdr_Ramsey says:
::thinks about leaving and leaving her alone:: Self: This can wait...

Host CO_Cpt_Linard says:
::nods:: CTO: This is getting to be a habit. ::heads for the door and opens it::

CIV_Ltjg_Telgar says:
:: smiles :: Raidon: Yes Sir. If that's where I'm needed.

Host RAdm_Raidon says:
CIV: Excellent, care for a drink to celebrate?

XO_Cmdr_Ramsey says:
::stops mid turn and smiles feebly:: CO: I'm sorry to bother you, Sir.

CIV_Ltjg_Telgar says:
Raidon: Certainly Sir.

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
*CO*: Are you sure?? I can feel your pain and I know that something is very wrong.

Host CO_Cpt_Linard says:
*FCO*: Yes, you are right, but I assure you that I will be fine. Linard out.

CTO_Cmdr_Yeung says:
::walks up behind Kathleen, and lays a hand on her shoulder, giving her a warm smile:: CO: I'd better go. Stay strong, Captain. Let me know what you find.

Host CO_Cpt_Linard says:

CTO_Cmdr_Yeung says:
::as he walks away, he waves back:: CO: And send me pictures! ::grins::

Host CO_Cpt_Linard says:
::turns back to the XO:: XO: It's okay.... does the Admiral want to see me again? You can tell him I'm not in the mood for company right now.

Host RAdm_Raidon says:
CIV: You can call me Kyle, as we are now off duty.

XO_Cmdr_Ramsey says:
::extends his hand with a PADD:: CO: Cmdr. Tyler Ramsey reporting for duty Sir..

CIV_Ltjg_Telgar says:
Raidon: Alright.......Kyle. Just one question. Why me?

Host RAdm_Raidon says:
CIV: Like I've said, I've reviewed your record, and you fit the bill.

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
*CO*: Ma'am if you need anything just call me.  Bishara out.
