"Respectfully Admiral, your joking aren't you?", said a collected Meve to the figure on the screen across from him. The Andorian Captain had spent the last hour talking about the finer points of how Sky Harbor Aegis was to be abandoned within the next several weeks. Even as only two of the twenty-seven Federation personnel carriers were full, Starfleet was already worried about where to relocate it's base of operations in the sector.

 

On the computer screen, and several hundred light-years away, as Fleet Admiral Peter McDonnell. The Caitian had been in the fleet for quite some time and had held control of the sector since the end of the Dominion War. McDonnell had also been one of the lead administrators in deciding which ships and stations were to be downsized once the conflict ended.

 

"No Captain, I am not. Given your current location, and the worst case scenario, we've decided to relocate you to Starbase 405," the Admiral said calmly. Meve could only shake his head "Sir, I've read all of the reports about this station before I got here. So I am totally understanding this...your relocating operational control for Aegis back to the Canar system?"

 

The cat like figure on the screen smiled, "In some irony...we're moving Sky Harbor Aegis back to what used to be Starbase Aegis...yes. Even though operation has been shared between the Federation and the Canarian Government, the station is still the best place to move your people. Every other base in the area is going to be filled to the gills with refugees. And besides...you probably won't be spending too much time on the station anyway. You'll have seniority over Commander Uei, but it is still his station."

 

Fred nodded slightly, "Very well sir. I'll get you the report regarding our scheduled shutdown as soon as it's complete. Aegis out." As soon as the screen had gone dark, the Andorian stood and continued to shake his head. It had been over two years since Starbase Aegis had been decommissioned....changed into a standard trading port known as Starbase 405. Meve himself had never been to the base, but knew quite a few of his crew had previously served aboard it.

 

Oh how interesting the next several weeks were going to be.
