USS FEYNMAN: Gearing Up
by Andrew Catterick 2-1-1997
SD:90201.0930
MD:1.1300
Scene: Holodeck
Husnock were here, you brought back proof of that yourselves. I want you to go back in and find if they had a base or any other ships. Since they liked to build large maybe we can salvage something. See if you can bypass the pirate involvement but don't fail to defend yourself if you encounter hostile forces." He looked to Maril "The train to Dumro."
Maril nodded slowly. A strike at supply lines would distract a
force that might have an upper hand otherwise. But this kind of mission was
a going against fleet intent. The Admiral was lending aide while sticking
to the letter of the orders but he was distorting the meaning.
Zane couldn't help but smile at that. A trip back into the sack
was going to be dangerous but he found that somewhat appealing. Perhaps
having his hands tied in the encounter with the Reavers made him all the
more eager. Besides, he thought, as she proved the last time, FEYNMAN was
built for the hostile environment of the sack. And, he noted with an
almost smug satisfaction, for disrupting SLOCs.
"So it is mapping and scavenging for you right now. I know it may
seem a little boring compared to the other ships but I am sure your people
could use the rest. As a matter of fact you might want to leave some behind
for extended R&R while you do this little errand." Grey eyes met those of
Captain Zane. There was a second meaning to the suggestion.
The admiral was probably right on that. Zane's initial reaction was to order all civilian's off the ship. But before he spoke Meleah broke in. "Captain will you be ordering civilians off the ship?"
In the background Bat cleared his throat but appeared to be engrossed in clearing up the buffet. He generally did not remain during the meetings but with the admiral here his curiosity must have got the better of him. He'd need Bat aboard if only to keep 10-Forward running smoothly. But he couldn't play favorites.
"We've been through dangerous missions before but this one could be a little more so. Ironically, all the civilians aboard are relations of each of you so I will leave it up to you to decide your individual case. I would 'suggest' that civilians do not remain aboard for this trip. However I will not be ordering my relation off.
"Your damn right you won't be." Came the reply from the buffet.
Zane turned to the admiral. "Will there be anything else sir?"
"No captain you and your people have a mission to get to. And I have some pressing business as well." They all stood.
"Very well, Commander we'll get under way at 1600 hours."
"Aye sir."
As the officers filed out of the room which had changed back to the black and yellow holodeck grid Zane grabbed Meleah's arm and pulled her closer. "Do you have a complete recording of this meeting?"
"Of course sir." She replied somewhat puzzled.
"See that you don't lose it."
<<<NRPG>>>
Short and to the point!;) Lets get back out there!
Kevin: We were in the sack the mission before you arrived. If you haven't already done so you may want to read the mission summary on the web page http://homepage.interaccess.com/~sgant/feynman.htm
(I'm going from memory, is that right Kris?)
Of course feel free to post reactions to the briefing, ask questions etc. Unfortunately I'm leaving for work so I wanted to make sure we were rolling after keeping us around for so long....
Respectfully, Andy-->Wondering why he always has to go to work when things get going:(
-Captain Zane, Commanding Officer, USS FEYNMAN
-Commander Horatio Sinclair, Fleet Intelligence Officer, BLUE FLEET
