USS HAMILTON
CO: Captain Judah Gibbons
GM: Janet Gist
***************************
With the mysterious device now outside her skull, CSO Mercedes McCarter
ponders its origin, why it malfunctioned, and its installation. After
thinking for some time over the possibilities, she realizes suddenly
that it is one of her own designs from when she worked for that villian
Jelek.
It does now have added mind-control-by-pain functionality, but the other
components and the design as a whole scream her name. As far as the
malfuncitoning, it probably wasn't designed with SFI dream-channel
communication in mind, so Anderson might have indirectly done some good
after all. The third question, about when/how it got installed, was the
easiest. Considering Jelek's vast network of nefarious cronies, it was
undoubtedly implanted while she was lying injured in a medical facility
at some point after leaving his employ. Having worked out the mystery to
her own satisfaction, Mercedes is now faced with the difficulty of
deciding how much to reveal to CO Judah Gibbons, but as she agonizes
over this new problem a glance at her chronometershows she is late for
her dinner with the captain.
In orbit of the moon on which the second COMBINANCE and the recently
visited temple rest, HAMILTON suddenly loses the downed ship from
sensors, to FO Miranda Sands' surprise. Coordinating with Engineering,
they discover that the vessel was never there; a hologram. They return
to the moon on which they located the first COMBINANCE and, under heavy
fire from the Jiev, find that this ship-in-distress was a fake too.
After losing shields and sustaining other damage, Gibbons orders the
ship 2 lightyears outside the system so they can reconsider the
situation from a distance more condusive to analytical thought. Whoever
kept the Jiev from arriving early enough to keep HAMILTON completely at
bay was quite helpful, but the SF crew isn't about to duck back in to
say their thank yous until some repair work has been done!

USS HORIZON
CO: Captain Tergin
GM: Ruud Visser
******************
In order to get rid of her bad dreams, CMO Bill Patton gives CSciO
Melody Cuen some medication to ease her tiredness. With the jippaloma
flu rapidly spreading amongst the crew, Captain Tergin and CEO Dariale
come up with the idea to use holograms to help the Malvedian vets. That
way, the animals being transported can receive proper care without the
risk of them being contaminated by flu-infected assistants.
The cyberpathic OPS Blaze Starsinger interfaces with the computer to do
some work there. Unknown to him, the flu virus develops into a
digitalform and spreads into the ship's computer. Soon, lights go out
and system failures occur all over the Horizon.
CNS Bordaq helps Ensign Brander get over the loss of his wife, now over
three years ago.
The disappearances of FCO/2O Jarek Malaar are caused by a Dr. Wednesday
and his worker, Gilbert. They live on Earth in an alternate timeline,
and have created a Reality Engine which can transport people from other
timelines and dimensions. Malaar doesn't know all of this yet, but is
slowly starting to remember his "visit" to Dr. Wednesday's laboratory.

USS HERMES
CO: Commander Michael J. Halifax
GM: Grayham Tyler
********************************
Getting settled in the new CNS, Ensign Lafayette handles her first
patient, but finds that working on a star ship means that even when
taking a short break, tends to make extra work. With her next patient
being N'borga which is over the Holo programming incident, was finally
shut down by Lt.jg Jynn Dal Narimor, but Ens. Ss the CSciO ensures that
he will get to the bottom of the situation.
Arriving at the Space Station OMEGA, Halifax, CO, meets up with the
prosecuting officer Lt. Alex Ganston, for the Qoensal case, the CO
attempts to squeeze some information out of him concerning the Court
Marshall and any relevant information about the destruction of the USS
TYNE. But Lt. Ganston doesn't give much away, and is eager to get the
trial started as soon as possible, due to other commitments the CO
wasn't able to get much information out of Ganston, but instead had to
introduce the new FO of the Hermes, LtCmdr. Joshua Ryan. Informing the
now 2O, and CMO, LtComdr. Reetaw'agah, seems to be pleased, allowing her
to continue what she loved to do. But with the Hermes currently docked,
some of the crew, decide to take a breather and relax in the ships Bar.
Qoensal flashbacks seem to be occurring more and more, and with the
trial coming up, with a keen interest his Defence Lawyer needs to know
what he actually went through and what the Jem hadar did to the Intel
officer.

blockage of subspace communication. The USS HERMES has been sent to
investigate.

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.
