USS HAMILTON
CO: Commander Judah Gibbons
GM: Janet Gist
***************************
HAMILTON's new OPS officer, SFI Lt Tom Anderson, makes a jaunty,
unannounced visit to the captain's ready room to report in and promptly
finds himself incapacitated. On regaining consciousness, he finds
himself in Sickbay being interrogated by a gorgeous, SFI-hating CSO.
Mercedes, of course, thoroughly enjoys having one of the loathsome
Intelligence toadies under her thumb. CO Judah Gibbons heads for the
bridge afterward, but is sidetracked to the cargo bay where FO Miranda
Sands and FCO Tom Slater are dissecting the mine they nearly ran smack
into. Once Gibbons makes it back to his ready room, he is alarmed,
angered, and disgusted to find SFI Anderson back in the chair
he had occupied a short time ago. They swap vague and not so vague
threats without either coming particularly out on top before apparently
agreeing that neither of them particularly likes or trusts the other.
Resolving the other explosive encounter, FO Sands and FCO Slater
discover a transmitter anomolously installed in the discharged mine. The
transmitter's memory shows two messages, the second warning CEO William
Johnson received about the mine itself and the COMBINANCE CO's distress
call. The plot thickens when both messages (the first of which was
transmitted as text) are found to have been recorded with the same
voiceprint. The possible explanation CWO3 Johnson offers is that the
iteration of the COMBINANCE CO back on OMEGA is the
marooned version's future self. This would explain his detailed
knowledge of where HAMILTON would be when.
After a run-in with Mercedes over the attachment he sensed in her to CO
Gibbons, Yossarian feels betrayed as her twin brother that she feels
that way about someone who gave him so much grief. His wife, ex-CEO and
current assistant CSO Chandler T'krn-McCarter, manages to cheer him up,
though, and he takes her to his bachelor quarters for a special surprise
he put together for her.

USS HORIZON
CO: Captain Tergin
GM: Ruud Visser
******************
As the Horizon is about to return to their own timeline, Cmdr. Canon
calls from the Nightingale. He's just heard that in his timeline, the
universe is about to be destroyed. Captain Tergin explains the
situation, and Canon realizes he can't blame him for returning to his
own timeline. After saying farewell, the Horizon enters the wormhole
and safely returns to their own time. Back at OP108, it is time for
repairs and R&R. Everyone, including FO Leyson Ayden, welcomes some time
off with open arms. OPS Blaze Starsinger celebrates his unexpected
return with his lover No'urdan before announcing his coming back home to
the rest of the crew. Shortly later, an incoming message from SB Omega
informs him he has been awarded the Golden Nebula Award for his
disabling of the Romulans' computer systems during the recent mission.
In the aftermath of the events, FCO Phryn discovers the true identity of
junior officer Drell. The latter, knowing he's death anyway because he
failed his Romulan superiors, fires his disruptor twice, killing Phryn
and himself. Tergin doesn't take the news of the Cheron's death easy.
Apparently unrelated to this, the crew discovers a male human who seems
to be from an alternate timeline or reality. So far, they haven't been
able to communicate with him.
Meanwhile, back on Earth, Jarek and Trinity Malaar (former FCO and CNS)
are looking forward to their returning to the Horizon. During their
extended LOA, their daughter Zadie has been born.

USS HERMES
CO: Commander Michael J. Halifax
GM: Grayham Tyler
********************************
Walking through the corridors of the JUGGERNAUGHT, trying to return to
there ship, the crew of the HERMES started to dodge phaser fire,
while they couldn't see the attackers, they returned fire. With the only
casualty being Jynn, who receive a blast in his shoulder. Minutes later
they started to see, who was firing at them, as one of the small
creatures surrendered, coming to realize that the Star Fleet Officers
were not the enemy. The small creature were in fact slaves, and they
were finally free, they then assisted the HERMES crew back to there
ship.
After being locked up in the Brig of the USS HERMES since the first
explosion, Col. McKendrick, meet up with the CO of the USS HERMES
Cmdr. Halifax on the bridge, they then inquired about the rest of the
crew, only to discover that the SF Intel. Officer, Lt. Qoensal, stole a
runabout and headed to the battle contingent, with Blue-Cobalt and
Trilitiu. But that wasn't the worst of it, Jynn announced that four
ships, that were in fact similar to the JUGGERNAUGHT were coming from
the direction of the contingent, which was were Lt.Qoensal was headed.
Making sure that the CO doesn't lose any of his crew he sets a course
to the contingent.

escape.
First Officer Fischer, now possessed by the 'Instrument', gathers all
the prisoners. He communicates with Captain Alyza on the HIKARU and
makes the demand that Alyza surrender the HIKARU within one hour or the
prisoners will be killed.

Amgine Sector and Andromeda Report (by Lt. Alac Nond)
*****************************************************
OP 108 activity has begun increasing with the completion of the orbital
docking platform. Construction has begun on several new ships at the
newly contstructed shipyards there. In addition, the Andromeda wormhole
has shown no signs of unusual behavior in recent months, causing a
return of commerce to the area.
Peaceful cooperation with races in the Amgine Sector continue to
increase in the aftermath of the Noo'Ach Peace and Trade Conference.
Terrorist attacks continue to plague Starfleet ships in the Andromeda
Galaxy. Purist terrorist cells, devoted to ridding Andromeda of all
Federation presence, have jeopardized the entrance of Trasior into the
Federation. Negotiators on Trasior report that the Trasien council is
considering withdrawing their application for membership, while various
attacks and disappearances are being investigated both by Trasien
Security and by Starfleet.

Beyond the Portal (by LtCmdr. Eli Meyman)
*****************************************
Recent troop movements along Cardassia's border with Breen space has
sparked some interest in the Union's possible plans. With relations
still cold from the war, no official inquiries have been made, and no
investigation is planned.
Betazoid Council chairman Beyard Mali and Alpha Centauran Council
chairwoman Vhesha P'Nehbuddar have announced plans to begin a massive
cultural exchange between their two peoples, including cultural centers
on each of the two race's home planets. The cultural centers will be
primarily devoted to exploration of similarities between the two
cultures and will include expositions on the theoretical genetic links
between Alpha Centaurans and Betazoids.
Three suspected members of the Orion Syndicate were indicted today at a
Federation Council hearing. Although the Orion Syndicate has been
careful in the past to remain outside of Federation jurisdiction, the
recent acceptance of Vermanda III into the UFP has expanded StarFleet
presence into a previously unmoderated area, heavily used by Syndicate
trafficking. StarFleet expects no retaliation, but also no more
arrests, as the Syndicate has most likely changed their operations
routes.
