*Transmission*
"USS Odessy. Your shakedown assignment is to travel to the Van'Gu Cluster. Be on the watch, it is a low explored area of space, but I think it'll give you something to try out the ships new crew with. Harden Out."
*Doug , Alex and Seven all enter the bridge and assume their stations. Doug looks over to Ensign Williams and gives him the order.*
"Proceed with the launch Mr . Williams."
*The ship clears all moorings and leaves the station. *
"Mr Williams set a course for the Van'Gu Cluster, Warp 5... Engage"
OFF: Ok guys full crew or not lets get going, if a position is not taken give it to a npc and we will use them untill the positions are filled.
sir premision to go to my quaters
sir captain brodie on screen
*captain brodie apears on the viewscreen*
Off: There is a real one but for now make it up as a side story to buy time for Captain Brodie to post.
"Understood seven but whatever attacked the Envoy may be cloaked . We need to be ready for anything."
Off: Yes all positions and ranks will roll over to the Endurance. Unless anyone vacates their positions, there yours.
=A="Yes i believe so. But my tactical chief says they have a new technology. I still don't know what"=A=
"Seven do not destroy the lead ship only disable it, the station wants it for questioning. The other ships however are non essiental. We will give them the option of surrendering. Coordinate your attack patterns with Mr.Scott."
sir what can i do
As the blue haze of the transporter glowed around him then faded Captain O'Neal walked onboard his new starship, the USS Odessy. He had never been on a nova calss starship but was looking forward to his own Command. He walked to his quarters and unpacked as he settled in. He then went to the turbolift.
"Bridge" he said as the turbolift moved to his destination.
Doug then walked onto the bridge and after examining it walked into his ready room , replicated a cup of tea and awaited the arrival of his crew.
No sir, but i cant do more than my best.
*looks at chair in front*
So this is my chair? nice thing
*Laughs*
sir all weapons are fully functionol
"Captain , all stations reporting in all systems are performing well within set peremiters. Sir we are 6 hours out of spacedock and 12 hours at our current speed till we reach the cluster."
*Doug stands as he greets Captain Brodie via the Viewscreen*
"Captain Brody this is Captain O'Neal of the Odessy. We are on diplomatic guard of the Yzakian Homeworld , Denali prime. We were wondering if you would mind staying in this sector to assist us should a situation arise. The Federation's envoy on the USS Sovergin is not scheduled to arrive for another week, so it would be beneficial to us and the Yzakian people to have a Galaxy CLass nearby.Will you assist us Captain?"
Off: Captain is there a real one that I might need to transfere over for a time or is it something I make up as I go along?

? I would beam over to give helping hand anyway Captain just asking what I do after that.
OFF: dont listen to my message (sorry that i posted here)
(Edited by Woork at 4:02 pm on June 19, 2004)
no not that you say so i havnt thought about it.
=/\=captain i think i can modify the deflector to fire a polaron burst wich will pass right trough their shields=/\=
(Edited by 7 of 3 at 5:48 pm on June 22, 2004)
yes sir *touches a few controls*lead ship shields are down to 75%
=/\=Mr.Scott the station would like to keep a ship out on patrol in case the ferengi made a distress call. As soon as you have docked have all remaining crew beam directly over to the Endurance untill we're sure of the situation.=/\=
After the captain came aboard, soon followed Harden, taking a visit of the newly come ship.
"Captain! Splendid to see you, care for some tea in your ready room? We can discuss the Odyssey"
*The Captain hearing the commotion walks out of his ready room and onto the bridge where he sees Mr. Warp standing looking for any crew. *
"Ah Mr. Warp welcome aboard , we are in the midst of crew assignments and relocation. Welcome aboard the Odessy.Have you ever served on a nova class ship before?"
*Walks out the bridge and goes to pub*
off:yes i know i have a few characters there to their having server problems
*5 hours have passed since the Uss Venture joined up with the Uss Oddessy. Captain Brodie was briefed and enjoied a small tour of the ship while the ships engineers traded war stories. Ensign Warp notified the Captain that the Federation Envoy carrying the Federation special ambassador to the Yzakian people . The envoy consisted of the Uss Sovergin as well as a Nebula and Excelsior class ship as escorts. It was then that Ensign Williams recieved the message from the Soverign.
"Sir we are getting an incomming message from the Sovergin." Williams said rather excitedly
"Open a Channel"Doug said as he wondered if something was wrong.
*Indeed it was the Sovergin had been attacked along with the rest of the Envoy by a fleet of alien ships. The Uss Southworth the Excelsior class ship was almost destroyed and defenseless. They requested all help to protect the ambassador.*
"Red Alert , all hands to battle stations" Doug said as the ship quickly came alive with officers reporting to their desginated positions. "Ensign Warp set an intercept course maximum warp. " Doug then adressed the crew. "I know we are not exactly a warship but we must do all we can , I trust all of you to give me your best."
*The Oddessy and the Venture headed to intercept the Sovergin*
off:sorry
=/\=station to oddyessy now would be the best time to do it!...we will give you 10 seconds to beam in...just tell us when...=/\=
"Ok you all heard them. Seven, Velena your with me. Mr He has the bridge , Mr.Scott I am counting on you , good luck."
*The three of them head to transporter room 3 where Mr.Scott beams them directly onto the Endurance bridge.*
=/\= Yes Captain I will. =/\=
=/\= USS Odessy to Station we are on final approach, we request premission to dock and Power down.=/\=
"ahhh..the ship of science, it will make great missions!"
Alex walks up to the bridge when he beamed down to the ship, looks around.
*wow, what a ship*
*Yells: Captain?? anyone here?*
*After the Admiral gave the order to head to the Van'Gu Cluster the Captain and a few of the bridge crew members headed to the lounge for a drink and to get to know one another better.*
=/\= Williams to O'neal, Sir 4 hours is up I am making final preparations to leave dock now.=/\=
The Captain replies =/\= Very well Ensign I am on my way begin launch sequence O'Neal out=/\=
*Ensign Williams begins the sequence as he awaits the bridge officers return.*
off: Nova's fine for me.
=A="This is Captain Brodie of the Starship Venture, What do you need?"=A=
the venetures chief engineer is sam norton
it Says Probabtion. Probably been here before and wasn't very active so thay put him on a probation to see that he posts more regularly
*takes the tactical counsel *
=/\= Negative Mr.Scott dock the Odyessy with the station , after the Endurance docks I will beam over to make a final walk through and log. Please have the crew prepare for transfer to the Endurance.=/\=
*The Captain saw The Admiral enter the bridge and greet him.*
"Thank you Admiral it is a pleasure to have you aboard. By all means lets enter the ready room."
*The Admiral enters the ready room and sits down, Doug walks over to the replicator and programs a drink*
"How do you like you tea Admiral?"
"Welcome aboard please assume your station as soon as your settled in. Ensign Williams begin pre launch checklist."
rumor has it that we will be getting a new mission but there are only about 5 of us left
" Ahh it say here that the Avalon has visited there. There mission was a sucess"
OFF: the website is http://www.expansionfleet.net/cgi-bin....topic=5
"Permission granted Seven."
Slowly being pulled into place the Shuttle bay doors close and I exit the craft. Moving to my quarters I get dressed and make for the Captains ready room.
Aye captain.
Computer *It Bleeps* run level 10 diagnostic on all computer function.
The computer begins its patern of checks
*looks at shawn*
its a galaxy refit
Glad to be aboard Captain, you are looking well. It is a Pleasure to serve with you Captain O'neal. I did some reading on the Ship it is some more Ship. I'll head to Sickbay and Check in with you later.
(Edited by Irene Jamsen at 3:05 pm on June 11, 2004)
yes sir goint to red allert
=/\=this is liuetenanr 7 to all crewmembers report to batle stations=/\=
sir sir whit some deflector modifications a might be able to let it fire a palaron burst wich penetrates the enemy shields
off: I was away for a few days. But i see all was done anyway. I had one of my officers transmit a message but it appears not to have came. Though it was about our leaving. It appears we havn't missed to much. So we will stay. This is a good story.
Brodie stood on the Odessy's bridge.
"I will return to the Venture then. Purphaps we can find out whom these alien ships are. Or patrol for them."
(Edited by Marcus Brodie at 11:10 pm on June 17, 2004)
off:he cliff what does your rank title say
Getting up from engineering station on the bridge Captai I will boost power by as much as I can to make us a more helpful to the station sir. I will also try to intergate some of the new idea I have to make the computer run as much as possible of this ship so as few people can run it as possible so most of you could transfere straight to the Endurance and get her into the fray as we return.
Following 7 out into the turbolift. Excuse me sir but I was wondering weather or not you have though of a name to call yourself now that your not part of the Borg anymore....
*The Odyessy is within transporter range of Ds 18. The station is being attacked by Ferengi marauders. Doug hails the station*
=/\= Odyessy to Epsilion Station we have entered the system and are preparing to engage the ferengi. To even the odds we will be sending a small team to the Endurance to get it underway. If possible a distraction would be appreciated to allow us time to beam in. What is your current status?=/\=
"With ice, no lemon, never got the grasp of hot tea. So, this is a Nova class ship is it not? Fine fit for combat, can fit where larger ships can't. It'd be a wonder if your first mission away from tests has to do with a sort of infiltration"
*runs in and takes a breath*
sir your new chief tactical is reportin in sir
OFF: Well we will do the best we can with what we got we can go ahead with the Van'Gu Cluster mission and use Npc's for the rest of the crew untill filled. I guess the loss of members is due to college being out , but I am not sure. However lets get this going as good as we can for now.
ON: *The Captain looks over the bridge and sees all is in order . He decides to have a drink with Mr. Warp . Before he leaves the bridge he looks to Shawn. *
"Commander would you care to join us?"
we have a standard complement of 50 probes going from class 1 till 16.
i cant recall the Van'Gu Cluster in my borg database but that might be bacause the borg had almost no intrest in that part of space
*walks out adn goes to his quaters*
Exiting the Captains Ready room I make my may to the engineering station on the Bridge.
Taking a quick exam of the Station Captain Engeering is working Perfectly. That Can't be right. Perfectly nothing ever works perfectly.
"Thorough and excellent work Mr.Scott. See that the computers are as reliable as possible , we won't always have the luxury or time to fix them . Commander He set us in orbit of the Yzakian homeworld and hail them."
"Certainly Captain , feel free to beam aboard at your convience. "
*Doug leaves the bridge and awaits the transport of his new chief medical officer from the Hector a federation runabout sent ahead of the Envoy. He sees Jamsen materialize in front of him.*
"Welcome Aboard the Odessy Commander."
OFF: this is our new CMO beaming in Captain Brodie hasn't transported yet.
=/\= Engineer Scott to USS Venture I will be beaming over to help you with the Re-modulation of your shields to be able to move in this area of space. =/\=
"Understood Captain , and thank you again for the assistance."
*Watches Captain Brodie leave the bridge and the Venture signals he has transported successfuly.*
OFF: Sorry captain we never recieved your message. Ok guys here is the deal. We need to wrap up this story and be back at the station by this time next week. We are all being retransfered to the Endurance. The "Offical story is the ship was undergoing repairs and a slight refit . So this crew will take her over. With that said lets do some great posting and make this ending a good one.
"Very good ensign , hail them and give them our eta."
aye sir
sir do i need to go on the team
*Hands the Admiral his tea and sits down across from him*
"With what we just experienced on the Endurance with the Kazon and their entrance to this sector , which is hopefully closed permantly . I have a feeling your right sir."
Aye captain, BTW do you mind having a drink in the messhall for about an half an hour with me?
Thank you 7 of 3 .Welcome aboard Mr. He glad to serve with you again , do you know the status of the remaning personel?
"Thank you Seven, Mr. Warp how do things look at your station.?"
"Very good Commander I shall pull up their logs as we continue our journey there. Williams, Warp what is our current stauts?"
OFF: I'll post more latre tonight the link shawn sent has 35 pages so it will take me some time to review it. Awesome smiley seven.
*The Captain looks through the logs of the other ship to enter the Van Gu Cluster and sharres his findings with Commander He and the rest of the crew.*
"It says in the logs that the USS Skytoucher entered the Van Gu Cluster and made first contact with a race called the Yzakian Empire. Their leader is named Pax ,and their Ambassador to the Federation is named Kyzox. The initial mission went well despite a incident that is classified to only flag Officers . However the main thing listed in the reports tells that there was a substance floating in space, very rare in origin and almost unable to trace with scanners. This substance sends out subspace waves, invisible to the eye, not harming to any living being, almost unable to trace with refined sensors even, but when it comes in contact with computer systems that have an artificial intelligence, it interferes with the computer's normal functions. In other words, it drove the computer insane and irrational. And so the computer fired without any orders. Therefore we must calibrate the ships computer to detect this substance and make the needed adjustments. So that we can enter the cluster without incident. I see our eta to the system is 3 hours."
Well Captain if you believe a Computer but as my Grandfather is well known for saying if a computer says it ain't broke something is always wrong. Sir I will be in Engineering doing a diagnostic on the engines.
Five hours after leaving the bridge I call up to the Captain.
=/\= Captain I have found a little fault and it should take about 20 minutes to fix. Warp Engines will be offline while I fix it. =/\=
Then 25 minutes later I return to the bridge and return power to the warp engines.
Looks at the console and says much better it is telling me that everything is working optimally.
(Edited by Thomas Scott at 3:50 pm on June 7, 2004)
Off: It may be a while Nova is having some problems at the moment.
"We will. This is our first run ad the Venture-B. I will admit its alot more exciting than our mission exploring the Van'Gu Cluster. We'll come up near you and patrol around. I wouldn't mind coming aboard the Odessy or you to the Venture to get more a detailed idea of the mission your on."
"Mr Scott check with the Venture's Chief Engineer and be sure he is aware of the field in this quardant. If not give them the proper adjustment procedure. We wouldn't want any malfunctions ."
*The Captain then heads to his ready room.*
=/\= Aye Captain I will be finished with the Venture very soon and I will return as soon as it is done.=/\=
Off: I was unable to get into Nova between now and my last post so it didn't get done but let us "Tendlike", thanks Mr Eddings, it happened.
(Edited by Thomas Scott at 4:55 pm on June 18, 2004)
"Captain our ETA is 15 minutes till we intercept the envoy."
*transmission to the endurance from the station...hold fire they wish to answer questioning*
sry guys i forgot to tell that i resign
=/\= Well Captain if I stop and think about it and rerout helm through the engineering station on the bridge and make a few changes I think the best hopes are about five if we can transport injuries to the station or the endurance. I am working the computer simulations down in Engineering now that should beef our defences by taking power from non essencial places like stellar cartography and unused offices and stations I can get an extra 35% shields and make a 20 % higher powered deflector dish. I will be ready to get it up in 30 minutes. =/\=
=/\= Understood Major Riker , keep us informed should you discover what this new technology is =/\=
"Mr.Scott you and Seven make you preparations and have them ready we will be there is 45 minutes so we dont have alot of time to test it. Also prepare for an emergency transport for my team so we can board the Endurance. Mr. Scott can you set up the transporter buffer to match the shield modulation so we can beam out without lowering shields.?"
Ensign Williams entered the bridge and walked to his station, he noticed the Captain was in his ready room with the Admiral. Not wanting to bother them he assumed his station and began routine systems checks before launch.
"Thank you Mr.Warp your best is what i expect. "
*The Admiral's communication comes in*
Doug hails the Admiral in response.
"Understood sir we will head there. O'Neal out "
*Turns to Warp*
Mr. Warp assume your station we launch in 4 hours that should give the crew time to report.
last crew i talked to was Amanda silver stone but that was may 10...other thatn that no one
Captain, all systems are funtionnaly normal, all secure
off: hey check out my borg smilie in my signature below
(Edited by 7 of 3 at 6:38 pm on June 1, 2004)
sir shall i begin adjusting the weapons systems
*Mr.Scott walks out of the ready room and shortly after is followed by the captain. He sees that all is well and moves to his seat.*
"Mr . Warp take us into the system. Set a course for the Yzakian Empire homeworld. Full Impulse power."
*Turns to face Mr.Scott*
"Is everything in order Mr. Scott?"
"Very well , hail the Venture . "
Captian, what class is the venture?
Welcome aboard Doctor may your time be useful.
off:sir do we ceep oure same positions
sir making long range scans no strange vessels detected so far
hmmm thats strange keep on scanning
"Very well Mr. Scott that is an excellent suggestion. I'll set up an away team to be prepared to transfer to the Endurance. Since I am the one with the most experience on the Endurance I will lead the team with Shawn , seven you will control the Odyessy. Mr . Scott how many people do you need here?"
*Doug hails DS18 apriving them of the situation.*
=/\= Epsilon Station this is Uss Odessy , we have been aprived of your situation and are en route maximum warp . Our eta is 1 hour . Can you hold out? =/\=
(Edited by Doug Oneal at 1:16 am on June 22, 2004)
=/\= Yes Captain. Once the away team is off Captain I will start a random modulation of the shields sir so Once you are away the only way the Odessy team will get to you will be by our own beam out Captain. Captain I have completed the diagnostic and the test simulation on the Changes down here now I have activated them. Command will be routed to Tactical and most other stations will run through Science station and Helm and ops are able to be the one person. Captain I have it all set to take place on the Endurance away team beam out. I got the numbers needed down as far as I could and for a little ship to have a crew of five will be astounding. I will keep a transporter lock on all crew members here sir and in the first sign of trouble I will set self and get us out to the Endurance so please Captain don't Change her shield modulation without letting me know. =/\=
Returning to the Engineering station on the bridge with 7 returning to Tactical.
Computer Shield up red Alert.
Captain we are are the station. =/\= All hands this is the chief engineer please be prepared for emergency beamout to the USS Endurance. =/\= or your order Captain.
=/\= Odessy to station, Commander we are awaiting orders. =/\=
=/\=Odessy to Endurance Captain If the frenegi have stood down do you want the rest of the crew over the now. =/\=
*Doug beams over from the Enduracne*
"Seven , please help prepare the crew for transfer to the Endurance. Afterwards I will be heading to the station bridge to help with the investigation into the ferengi incident . You are welcome to join me."
*Doug then tours the ship for one last time as the crew prepares to move to the Enduracne. He finally ends up in the Ready room packing his final belongings . Doug then walks onto the vacated bridge and makes one final log entry before locking out computer command to Admiral Harden.*
Off: From now on all crew please post on the Endurance or the station. We will hopefully begin our new mission on the Endurance by mid week. If it is to be longer I will see that you all are involved in the stations mission. If you have any questions message me.
Commander Shawn he is on bridge duty and yells at an ensign, "hail the Odessy"
"mr. Oneal.... i dont mean to be rude but THE SHIP HAS DIRLECT IN OVER A WEEK ALMOST A TWO!!!. "
"Good to hear , we are enroute to the Van'Gu Cluster. There is not much known about this area of space as it has hardly been explored. At least by federation vessels. Since we have no idea what to expect I look to each of you to be at your best , we have no idea what may be waiting for us. Commander have you heard of our destination before?"
" Ship drops out of warp"
Commander He: Full stop, any signs of the anomoly?
yes sir*starts scan and pick up something*
sir im detecting a federation warp signature its the USS Veneture from nova division
*I come onto the bridge and look around. I approach 7*
Reporting for duty M'am.
Off: Ah. I see. Fair enough.
On: Picking up nothing on long range scans yet Captain.
sir are we going to help them
I see now we should have not split up the ships from this point on the the Uss. Endurance has been disbanded all of the Endurance's crew are to report to the Uss Odessy and await Captain Doug Oneal for assmighnts Commander Shawn He is the Xo of the Oddessy from this point forward. And Sirius kos'ur has retired from simming as well
"I'm ready for our next mission, captain"
The Shuttle was approaching the Uss Odessy.
It showed up on the Odessy's Sensors and I hailed the Odessy.
USS Odessy this is lt Commander Scott. Your new Chief Engineer.
Permission to come aboard Captain and get settled and start work on the next shift rotation.
(Edited by Thomas Scott at 4:05 pm on June 4, 2004)
Ten Hours after starting the Level 10 Diagnostic the compter *Bleep* All ships systems are running with in normal Parametres
off: im a sir not a ma'm
yes helm me configuire the deflector
"What is our eta to the envoy? Lt. are you picking up anyhting on scanners?"
Off: The Endurance was the flagship of this division. We orginally had to add the odessy because we had enough crew to do both but we lost members. So we had to shut down the endurance and were running the oddessy but since it is a better class ship and for sentimental reasons were going to re activate it and shut down the oddessy . If we get alot of solid posters there may be two ships again but I dont see it for a while.
*distress call* *this is the federation deep space 18 we are under attack by 8 ferengi marauders we need help as soon as posible!*
*gets to his station*
sir all weapons systems are fully funtionol
"See what you can pull up from the federation database .I know it will be vague but I would like to know as much about it as possible. Also commander what is our compliment of probes onboard."
=^=welcome on board opening shuttle bay doors odessy out=^=
"Yes seven when the Skytoucher was helping the Yzakian people find a new source of power , federation warp cores there was an attack of some sort . Since the Federation believes there may be another attack I want you to keep a constant scan around this system. We aren't the most heavily armed ship in the fleet but we are to maintain this position and extend the Yzakian people the utmost diplomatic courtesy. SO we mainly need to keep guard."
Dr Jamsen, reading about the Odessy. Set the pad,on
the table. That is some ship,The Doctor replies.
Takes a sip of Coffee and continue's reading.
In the meantime, "This is the Captain we will
be arriving along side the Odessy. Dr. Jamsen
prepair yourself for transport. Captain Harris out."
^ Odessy this, is Captain Harris, Commanding Ofiicer
Of The Hector. Captain O'neal you are very lucky A
good Medical Officer is Like Goldpressed Latium.
Dr. Jamsen and her staff are aboard, we will be along
side in twenty minutes. Request Premission to beam
over you are the first humans we seen since we left
Deep Space 11. Personnal Carriers are lonely duty.
Awating your response.
Off: DOH! Sorry. Won't happen again.
On: Yes Sir.
*Takes up position at her station.*
Yes Sir.
Off: How come we're being transfered to the Endurance?
*Turns back to he console and begins scans.*
"Aye sir, Course plotted and set. We are on our way home maximum warp. Our Eta is 4 hours."
First officer reporting for duty.....
" i think i have read something about it before but my memory is vague"
"As soon as Mr. Scott's shuttle has finished docking. If there are no signs of the anomoly. Take us in Mr. Warp."
sir is there anything you need me to do
"access granted, you may beam him over"
off: i am a bit confused wats happening?
off:doesnt matter thats the funny thing of having a borg name
sir weapons are standing by
aye sir *turns to velena*could you scan for hi levels of neutrino's that should indicate if ther e are cloaked ships
*The Oddessy recieves a distress call from DS18 , they decide since the Venture is a Galaxy Class ship it will escort the Federation Envoy to the Yzakian Homeworld. The Oddessy heads for DS18 and the Uss Southworth while being damaged from the attack on the Envoy follows them to lend a hand.*
"Ensign Williams set a course for DS18 maximum warp. Maintain red alert and battle stations. Seven I want you and Mr.Scott to do everything you can to the weapons here were a small ship but we will make the ferengi remeber we were there.Also check with the engineer on the southworth and see if they need any assistance."
