Hunter Matheson: Approaching Neutral Zone, Captain.
John Randall: ::in the CE's office, letting Michaels and Maloney supervise the crew::
Hunter Matheson: Want me to waggle the wings to the Klingons, or will they think that is a signal for war?
Hunter Matheson: Or we can do... blinking lights. ::shrug::
Cptn Ja'Lale: I don't know if that would signal war to them, thought hey might think there's something wrong with the ship
Hunter Matheson: ::sigh:: Yes, sir. I'll just leave it alone.
Cptn Ja'Lale: Could do. Let's cross over.
Hunter Matheson: Entering the NZ..
Hunter Matheson: Will enter Federation space in five.
Dvokr chim Hok: (NZ wou
Hunter Matheson: And... we're home, sir.
Cptn Ja'Lale: ACTION: We're back in Federation space.
Cptn Ja'Lale: ACTION: Challenger receives a hail from Starfleet via a secure channel
Dvokr chim Hok: Incoming hail...
Cptn Ja'Lale: Starfleet Admiral>. +Challenger+ Welcome back, Challenger. Good job on your mission. We'd like you to proceed to the Arcadian system to help chart out shipping and trading routes with the Arcadians, an associate member of the Federation. The Davenport will meet you en route to pick up Captain Sivok and his crew.
Hunter Matheson: ::look to Hok, then the cap::
Dvokr chim Hok: ;; watching the viewscreen ::
Hunter Matheson: Hm... ::plotting course to Arcadia, and waiting for the okay from Davenport::
Cptn Ja'Lale: Admiral>. Goodluck, Starfleet out
John Randall: ::leaves his office and wanders out into the department; sits down at a station at the main console::
Hunter Matheson: Course logged in, Captain. Your call.
Cptn Ja'Lale: All right, let's proceed at warp 7. ::reading a PADD with their new orders Starfleet sent::
Hunter Matheson: Engaging at warp 7, aye.
Hunter Matheson: ::checks IDS frame, then engages::
Cptn Ja'Lale: ACTION: The Davenport is still pretty far out but acknowledges that they'll be meeting them within the next 24 hours.
Dvokr chim Hok: :: a
Dvokr chim Hok: :: allocates power ::
John Randall: ::hears a whine from the warp engines, gets up from his station and goes back to the warp core station joining Lieutenant Brad Mason, who is the new chief of the warp core team::
John Randall: Mason> Hey, Chief, we just jumped to warp 7.
John Randall: ::studying the readouts, nods:: Yeah, looks like it. The captain must've gotten the orders for the new mission.
Cptn Ja'Lale: Interesting people the Arcadians.
Hunter Matheson: ::relaxing at helm, hands over his head, cracks his back:::
John Randall: ::claps Mason on the shoulder:: Keep an eye on it, Brad, I'm gonna go see if the mission e-mail has been posted.
Hunter Matheson: I've heard, Captain, but never had contact.
John Randall: Mason> Will do, Chief.
Cptn Ja'Lale: Neither have I, but they share similarities with us Chelons in that they are semi aquatic.
Hunter Matheson: Should be interesting then
John Randall: ::goes back into his office and powers up the computer; asks it for the mission statement, which it displays, and reads::
Hunter Matheson: Anything else about the species?
John Randall: Computer, display all known facts about the Arcadians. ::the computer complies, and he continues reading::
Dvokr chim Hok: I don't believe I know their language.
Hunter Matheson: Me, either.
Cptn Ja'Lale: They're an associate Federation member. I'm not sure if they are seeking full membership with the Federation, but they are interesting in establishing a trading route in their system to facilitate easy travel and trade with us. I also am unsure of their language or much of anything else about them.
Cptn Ja'Lale: I do know a representative of Arcadia was present in Captain Kirk's trial in 2286.
Hunter Matheson: Should be interesting, then.
Cptn Ja'Lale: ACTION: The Davenport contacts Challenger informing them that they will be arriving fairly soon.
Hunter Matheson: ::pretty much relaxed at helm::
John Randall: ::the information is scant concerning the Arcadians, and he finishes the reading in a short amount of time::
Hunter Matheson: Any idea when Davenport will contact, Captain?
Cptn Ja'Lale: They look interesting, almost like your porcelain dolls with their pale white faces
Cptn Ja'Lale: They should contact us when they're within range of us. Once they've contacted us we'll drop out of warp and arrange transport. I spoke with Captain Sivok and he seems to be in good spirits.. as good spirits as a Vulcan can get.
Hunter Matheson: ::still waiting for OPS to forward the message::
Dvokr chim Hok: :: forwarding a message ::
Cptn Ja'Lale: ACTION: Davenport replies that they will be in range in a few hours at their current speed.
John Randall: ::leans back in his chair, glad they're staying in Federation space for this particular mission::
Cptn Ja'Lale: PAUSE SIM
Cptn Ja'Lale: PAUSE SIM
Cptn Ja'Lale: Good job everyone... TBS will be a few hours when the Davenport will be in range with us, any questions?
