Mission Briefing
The Columbia is being rushed through repairs from the last mission and an accident during warp core installation and been ordered to Delorea. The Columbia's mission is to "pitch" the benefits of Federation membership. Admiral Philson, the director of First Contact at Starfleet HQ assures that this mission should seem more like shore leave for the crew as the Delorians are well known for their hospitality.
The Delorians do favor entrance into the Federation, however with their proximity to Romulan space, Federation sources have hinted that the Delorians are also considering joining the Romulan Star Empire which would give the Romulans a significant system so close to Federation space and Starbase 118. Despite the current peace the Federation enjoys with the Romulans, the Federation cannot let the Romulan acquire a stragetically important area of space should the political landscape change.
The Mission so far...
Chapter One
With the repairs and the investigation into the explosion during war core installation well under was, the USS Columbia has headed toward Dolorea, orders in hand. Along the was they have picked up three new crew members, Lieutenant Commander C'elest Moranta, who is assuming the role as of First officer, Lieutenant Jg. Marcus Dickens who is joining Lt T'Lea in the Science Department and Ensign Miller who is joining the ranks of Security.
Captain Avatar on conducting routine ship operation discovered that the Captain Command Codes had been shifted to Ensign Montgomery. After a brief meeting Avatar has had the Command Codes shifted back to him, and put Montgomery, who had been assigned to Columbia under dubious circumstances, on trial period as Operations Chief.
Meanwhile, Lt. Zubowskivich and Lt. Gear have made great strides gleaming information about the Delorian culture from the First Contact mission notes and independant investigation.
Lt Franks has made a facinating, as yet unexplained discovery in the aftermath of the explosion in Engineering, Lt. Dayna Barnes, who suffured some injury in the same explosion, has DNA consistant with being a daughter of Lt Anderson.
In Engineering, with the repairs proceeding well. Lt Barnes, after being released from the Medical Bay, has learned that on orders from the injured and unconcious Lt Anderson that she is to be acting Chief of Engineering.
Lt Alexander is being investigated by Lt Kuran Surit, a officer with the Judge Advocates Generals office for questionable conduct on a prievous mission. Lt Alexander while seemingly clam has had at least one troubling sleepwalking incident.
Lt Surit is not all that he appears, and may be on the Columbia for other reasons.
Finally, Lt. Zubowskivich after a heavy night of drinking, had a brief drunken incounter with T'Lea. T'Lea, nonplussed, felt it was her duty, to get back at the Lt, who did not remember a thing, has left Lt Zubowskivich with the notion, that far more happen than actually had happen, leaving him a bit confused as to where he and T'lea stand, and how he feels about that.
With several hours until they reach Delorea, what else could happen?
