USS HAMILTON
CO: Captain Judah Gibbons
GM: Janet Gist
***************************
After staving off Talrez with an innocent "Power fluctuation? What power
fluctuation?" act, CO Judah Gibbons and his team manage to get the
HAMILTON warp drive crash-started. The SF vessel shoots forward and
snatches back its albatross, SFI Tim Anderson, and heads for the downed
COMBINANCE. After their initial shock at the lamb-turned-lion
resurrection, 6 Jiev fighters pursue and thirty more set up a blockade
in front of a moon that orbits the third planet. An intense energy beam
lashes out from the second moon precisely aimed at a receiver on the
M-class moon with the crash site; apparently, a power transfer. Scanning
the COMBINANCE crew shows, contrary to report, that they are in no
imminent danger of expiring, so Gibbons decides to investigate the
origin of the beam. Immediately after their course change, the attacks
of
their escorts reintensify. On captain's orders, CSO Mercedes McCarter
limits herself to taking out the weapons of each vessel as it comes
within range. The tiny vessels' pinprick stings do little to so much as
slow down the Pioneer-class vessel in the meantime. They slip blithely
through the "blockade" and assume an orbit close to the moon of
interest. Surface scan reveals not only vast tracts of unspoiled
tropical forest, but a second USS COMBINANCE.

******************
Nathan Cady, former Horizon's OPS, has completed his Advanced Tactical
Training and will soon return to the Horizon to become part of the
special OPS team. Meanwhile, Chug, a bully from Cady's youth, has been
enslaved by the Klingon woman Garal, long-time enemy of the Horizon.
She's after Jack Haynes, one of the ship's first FOs.
After the dinner with the TI agents, CNS Bordaq talks to various of his
colleagues. Without going into detail, he tells CSciO Melody Cuen about
the death of the Horizon's former CNS, Jay McMadeth. The next morning,
TI begins interrogating the crew, and everyone is happy to see them go
by the end of the day. Shortly after their departure, the Horizon leaves
OP108 for the new mission.

USS HERMES
CO: Commander Michael J. Halifax
GM: Grayham Tyler
********************************
Still stuck in what can only be described as Goo, Commander Halifax,
feels he is going crazy with boredom, he is even starting to complain
about stains of the carpet. Sick of not being able to do anything,
Halifax requests that some of the senior staff, venture outside the
ship to get a sample of the substance.
With most of the staff volunteering, because there was nothing else to
do, as no communications of any kind could get through the thick
substance, which had the ship trapped, the volunteers suited up and
prepared to collect the samples needed so they could figure out a way
to get out of the super sticky and freezing Goo.

DS101
CO: Captain Alyza
GM: Don Ratliff
*****************
Doctor Poynton is promoted to Lieutenant. Fischer gives Kersh a
tricorder to replace the one damaged on the last mission. The HIKARU
returns to DS 101. Roberts is successful in translating the Rachet's
language into the universal translator and catches up on his brother's
activities in a message from Gallic and the time-ship Trax. Roberts
has a checkup by Dr Poynton, the only abnormality is a decrease in
neural activity of 12%. Alyza bundles her twins off to school on
Vulcan.
Kersh talks with Katie and gets invited to dinner. There Katie drops
the news that she and Kersh have a son, Bel Jackson. Introductions are
made. And Kersh promptly faints. Poynton asks Nurse Jacki Lines to
dinner.
The President of the Xilfan Planetary Council present information to the
Council regarding a threat, by parties unknown, to destroy an important
Xilfan facility unless certain demands are met. The demands included
the dissolution of the Planetary Council and cessation of contact with
all extra-planetary civilizations. The Xilan Embassy on DS 101 is
considered to be one of the targets for destruction. The Ambassador at
DS 101 opens a message and is rendered unconscious by a neurotoxic gas.
Doctor Poynton transports those affected to Sickbay and isolates them
behind a Level Four quarantine field.

Cocoon Fleet Situation Intelligence Report (by Cmdr Seth Forster)
*****************************************************************
UPDATED SD 13.0615
Na'stiu and Juun relations continue to be tense without progress from
assigned diplomatic teams.
Activity has been reported in the Holack sector, despite the Veil's
blockage of subspace communication. The USS HERMES has been sent to
investigate.
Reports of Talonid invasion into the Cocoon have been determined to be
false.
The USS JOHN GLENN has reportedly found debris from the destruction of
the USS COCHRANE. Search for survivors continues, but none have been
found at this time.

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.
