USS HAMILTON
CO: Captain Judah Gibbons
GM: Janet Gist
***************************
After her talk with Karen, CNS Logaan Woods' ex-fiance, CEO Chandler
T'krn-McCarter makes an impromptu appointment with the counsellor about
his would-be visitor. She discusses with him the possibility that he may
be called back to the planet's surface or that someone of higher rank
may assume command and decide to remove her from the ship or even that
she herself may decide to send Karen away if she obstructs the mission
in any way. He accepts these potential outcomes. Chandler then asks
after his sister, Sarah, who lapsed into a coma during the battle
against Nengie and only momentarily regained consciousness at the
battle's climax. Logaan admits that there has been no positive change
and that the doctors are not hopeful. Chandler then offers the use of
her sympathetic ear anytime he needs to pour out his troubles. By the
time CSO Mercedes McCarter arrives in Sickbay to retrieve her
troublesome duckling, Logaan has returned to his sister's bedside and
she experiencesa moment of discomfort having found him there. To cover
it, she chides Quackers while the young fowl uses his powers of duck
persuasion to avoid immediate removal. She leaves saying she will send
Hawkeye, her holographic friend, to bring Quackers back to her quarters.
Logaan rushes after her; first apologizing for the way he talked to her,
then inviting her to dinner when the mission is over. Mercedes doesn't
say in so many words that she will come, but it's plain she will. When
the urge to kiss her nearly overwhelms him, he hurriedly says goodbye
and returns to his vigil at his sister's bedside.
Planetside, the Away Team passes the night in relative safety. No one
disturbs them in the city courtyard waystation they occupied shortly
after their skratla ride. In fact, the night passes with their own watch
change and the passing of a drunk as the only occurances of note. CSciO
Jur Lehron even manages to whip up a breakfast of green tea and sweet
rolls over which they discuss where they will begin their search for
Planetary Arbitrator Minuar Calvert's daughter, Malaka.

USS HORIZON
CO: LtCmdr James Burke
GM: Ruud Visser
******************
The weakened alien ship is no match for the Horizon. Heavily damaged, it
ejects a dozen lifeboats and sets course for the jump-gate to get back
to their own universe. They never reach home, though, as the jump-gate
is too instable to allow passage. Eleven of the lifeboats warp away, the
twelfth one stays behind and is captured by the Meade. Later, Captain
Burke learns Lavender/Green's mate is aboard, as well as. They have no
hostile intentions and Burke allows them the freedom L/G asks.
CEO Kuaar takes an engineering team over to the Meade to help with
repairs. SpecOps XO Cady is also on the team, undercover, to execute the
orders Burke received at the start of the mission: to retrieve Professor
Haptfield's orders. Cady manages to do so without being discovered by
the Meade's crew, bringing yet another Horizon mission to a successful
end.

The CURIE returns to DS 101. Everyone takes advantage of the change to
re-connect with loved ones and friends. Kersh gets a surprise birthday
party. A double wedding is in the planning stages.
On approach, Fischer and Stryker reminisce about their first Star Fleet
postings. Ens Fitzpatrick (NPC), CURIE's CNS, returns to her office
aboard the ship to find Kersh's boxes have taken over the compartment.
The boxes are beamed to storage.
Roberts checks with Dr Poynton about Alex. She continues in her coma.
Fischer spends some time sitting with Alex. Touching her hand, Fischer
experiences a vision, or perhaps a memory from Alex, of the future.
Alyza, Roberts, and himself are aboard DS 101. But a drastically
damaged DS 101. The station is under hostile fire from ships exiting a
dimensional rift. He sees Alyza and Roberts, bodies burnt, slumped
over a console. "Traitor", he hears... then awakens.
Stryker discovers a mini-blackhole in the vicinity. Fischer receives
orders from Admiral Deric to the effect that Lt Mike is arriving to test
a new engine prototype. Fischer is specifically ordered to give Lt Mike
whatever he asks and to keep Roberts from participating in the testing.
At the Hetarot Embassy Ri'eta meets with Naemah. Initial conversation
hints at a future time travel. Ri'eta is accompanied by a Human,
Phillip Granger of Mariposa. He had been summoned four months ago,
during the as yet to happen time-travel mission. Ri'eta has created a
device that would allow any vessel to go back in time. Her plan is to
go back in time 2500 years, and collect DNA samples from those of her
race, thus hoping to re-populate her endangered species. Their mission
arrives in the past safely and preparations begin.
On Cardassia IX, Alyza and Canon continue their search for the Bajoran
artifact. The find an Orb Case, which when opened releases a Dal'Rok, a
malevolent telepathic energy being. The Dal'Rok feeds upon and
intensifies feelings of conflict, aggression,... just down-right evil
thoughts. Acting upon their knowledge of Bajoran history, Alyza and
Canon begins to tell 'happy' stories. This seems to diminish the
Dal'Rok's effects upon those present. The Away Team comes under attack
from Cardassian security guards. Using the Storyteller's Stick and the
Orb
Case, they are able to confine the Dal'Rok back in the case. They
quickly are beamed back to the shuttle and set course for home.
NIGHTINGALE's prisoners from TASMANIA are transferred to the USS
YORKTOWN and the NIGHTINGALE sets course for DS 101 to re-supply. Much
to Stuart's chagrin he learns that Kathryn Collins, an old love, has
been assigned to NIGHTINGALE as the liaison with the Federation Red
Cross.
Ens Liam MacKinnley, after being suspended in a temporal anomaly for two
years, reports aboard as Chief Security Officer. Upon arrival he meets
Mrell and Stuart. MacKinnley is not exactly pleased to be assigned to a
medical ship... he was hoping for more 'action'. Stuart promises that
he will see all the action he wants, perhaps more than he desires.
MacKinnley keeps his thoughts to himself and settles into his duties.
On Cardassia IX, Alyza and Canon continue their search for the Bajoran
artifact. The find an Orb Case, which when opened releases a Dal'Rok, a
malevolent telepathic energy being. The Dal'Rok feeds upon and
intensifies feelings of conflict, aggression,... just down-right evil
thoughts. Acting upon their knowledge of Bajoran history, Alyza and
Canon begins to tell 'happy' stories. This seems to diminish the Dal'
Rok's effects upon those present. The Away Team comes under attack from
Cardassian security guards. Using the Storyteller's Stick and the Orb
Case, they are able to confine the Dal'Rok back in the case. They
quickly are beamed back to the shuttle and set course for home.
The USS LACROSS arrives at DS 101 for engineering testing of a new
propulsion system. The tests will be supervised by Lt Mike, Roberts'
brother. Mike wastes no time and meets with Roberts shortly after
arrival. Mike tells his brother that Starfleet has devised a way for
Mike to regain his memory of past events during his life on Twentieth
Century Earth. However, after learning that Roberts was the one who help
the aliens plot his kidnapping, Mike tells his brother that he has
decided not to undergo the procedure. Additional he tells his brother
that he wishes to have nothing further to do with him.
Captain Alyza and Commander Canon return from their mission on Cardassia
IX. After stopping at Starbase Omega to leave the Orb Case, Dal'Rok, and
the Storyteller's Staff with the Admiral, they set course for DS 101.
Along the way they receive a distress call from a merchant vessel under
attack by three Raptor-Class Juun fighters. They warn the fighters to
break off, but the attack continues. After sending a message
to DS 101, relayed to the NIGHTINGALE, Alyza and Canon rush to the
freighter's rescue. The HIKARU departs DS 101 to lend assistance.
The NIGHTINGALE responds as quickly as possible. Newly arrived CSO Ens
MacKinnley takes advantage of the travel time to plan a tactical
response. Once upon arrival at the site of battle, MacKinnley leads a
nine-ship flight of NIGHTINGALE's armed shuttles to the rescue. In
themidst of battle, Lt Zaxx (NIGHTINGALE's newly assigned FCO), arrives
on the scene aboard a runabout. He, too, enters the fray. By now the
Juun fighters have been reinforced by twelve more Raptor-Class fighters.
Fifteen enemy fighters against nine armed runabouts/shuttles from the
NIGHTINGALE, Zaxx's runabout, and Alyza and Canon in Mrell's shuttle.
The situation is not looking good for our heros.
