The Dublin had just crossed into Cormanii space when special orders from Starfleet Headquarters required it to meet the U.S.S. Argonaut to receive two officers on temporary assignment, Lieutenants Rou and Tek.  The Dublin is now 7 light years on the federation side of Cormanii space.

CTO: What was the time?

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::notices an Andorian at the CTO console:: CTO:  Ensign... ::tries to remember his name::

CTO_Ens_Kizlev says:
XO: Or the Pittsburg for that matter.

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
CTO:  Ensign Kizlev.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
CO: I return the bridge to you sir.

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
*CMO*:  Granted, but try to not bother them too much.  ::grins::

CTO_Ens_Kizlev says:
XO: 1 min, 27 seconds. Disappointing.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
::moves down and relieves Rien::

CTO_Ens_Kizlev says:
::stands to attention:: CO: Captain, sir!

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::nods at his wife::  FCO:  Thank you Commander.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
::checks the readings and raises an eyebrow:: CO: Captain, you might want to look at this.

CMO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
TL:  Deck 13.  ::leans against the TL wall and looks again at her hand, smiling like a schoolgirl.  Wipes the tears away::

XO_Cmdr_Jakuharrr says:
CTO: Yeah. ::Frowns:: Ship record is 48.8 seconds, lets see if we can beat that, if a paranoid Klingon can do that I am sure you can manage 47 seconds ::grins::

CMO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
*CO*:  Thank you sir.  And I wouldn't dream of 'bothering them'.  ::sounds a little irritated, but then happy::  sir!

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
FCO:  What's wrong?

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
::sends a message to the CEO since she couldn't finish her request when she was standing at his station:: Message, CEO: Request that we meet at Deck 13 as soon as possible to verify that all systems and interfaces are functioning properly.

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::leans over helm's console and takes a look at it::

CTO_Ens_Kizlev says:
::slowly regards his new CO with his antennae, locked in nervousness::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
CO: Somehow navigation has been fine tuned as it were and our course has been altered slightly through Cormanii space. At warp 9.5 it will now take us 7.51 days to cross Cormanii space.

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::turns to the CTO::  CTO:  At ease, Ensign... I'll speak with you in a moment.  ::looks at FCO's console again::

CTO_Ens_Kizlev says:
XO: Aye, I heard of a Klingon officer who served aboard the Dublin's predecessor ship.....the Gryphon I believe.

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
FCO:  Looks like our new friends are already doing their jobs.

XO_Cmdr_Jakuharrr says:
CTO: He also served as this ship Chief Tactical Officer, before his death, well I have some other items to care, of remember dinner at 8. ::walks away::

CMO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
::pushes off the wall as the doors open and heads swiftly to the area of the new members and enters.  Moves slowly to the side of the pool, trying to emanate happy feelings towards the occupants::

CEO_Ltjg_Cerdan says:
::Almost laughs out loud as the message is displayed. Sends a reply. ::As soon as alert drill is officially ended, I'll have some time.::

XO_Cmdr_Jakuharrr says:
::Heads over to the CEO and taps him on the shoulder::

CTO_Ens_Kizlev says:
::calms down and returns his focus to the security reports:: XO: I will be there, sir.

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
::grins as she sees the message and wiggles a little happily in her seat::

Host Tim says:
ACTION: BOTH DOLPHINS TURN TO FACE THE DOOR AS THE CMO APPROACHES

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
::smiles:: CO: Indeed sir.

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::whispers::  FCO:  I really have bad feelings about invading the Cormanii space.  ::sighs::

CEO_Ltjg_Cerdan says:
::Turns and looks at the XO:: XO: Sir?

XO_Cmdr_Jakuharrr says:
CEO: Do you have a moment Lieutenant?

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
CO: Sir, we can go around it, but it's going to add time to our trip.

CEO_Ltjg_Cerdan says:
XO: Yes sir, I'm just awaiting word that the alert drill has concluded

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
CTO:  Ensign Kizlev, as soon as we enter the Cormanii space, take us to yellow alert.

CTO_Ens_Kizlev says:
CO: Yes, Captain.

XO_Cmdr_Jakuharrr says:
CEO: It’s over, as far as I am aware.

CMO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
::Tessa smiles even wider, if that's possible, as she feels happiness and a welcome from the guests::  ~~~Lt Rou:  I know you can't understand, but you should at least feel the sentiments. Glad to have you aboard!~~~ ::leans over the tank to get a better look::

CEO_Ltjg_Cerdan says:
XO: My department has received no word to stand down.

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
FCO:  Aye... Keep me posted of the course alterations.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
::nods:: CO: Of course Captain.

XO_Cmdr_Jakuharrr says:
::grins: :XO: You do now.

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::walks towards the CTO::

Host Tim says:
ACTION: BOTH TAILS SLAP THE WATER AND THE MAMMALS ROLL OVER

CTO_Ens_Kizlev says:
Self: Over a minute's time. Unbelievable. The ship would already be taken over by the Jem'Hadar by now.

CMO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
::suddenly remembers Taurek:: *Taurek*:  So sorry, doctor!  I'm on Deck 13 with our new guests.

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::notices the red klaxons::  CTO:  Why are we still in red alert status?

CMO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
::reaches over the water and tries to gently itch their stomach as one passes close::

CTO_Ens_Kizlev says:
CO: My mistake, sir. Canceling red alert.

Host Tim says:
ACTION: TEK QUICKLY PULLS AWAY FROM THE CMO SPASHING HER.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
CO: Captain 32.4 hours to Cormanii space.

Host Tim says:
ACTION: ALL DEPARTMENTS HAVING REPORTED IN THE RED ALERT DRILL IS CONCLUDED.

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::raises an eyebrow at the CTO::  CTO:  Do it.  Don't forget to bring us to yellow alert as soon as we enter Cormanii space.  ::smiles a bit::

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::nods to the FCO::

CMO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
::pulls her hand back fast, feeling a little badly:: ~~~Lt Tek: I'm so sorry!  Didn't mean anything offensive.~~~ ::shakes the water out of her hair::

Host Lt_Rou says:
