The office of admiral Montrell

[FredLurado]

He took a seat. "I'll have water for now, I am saving my thirst for a nice scotch from the pub here".
He began to go into the highlights of thier missions.
"As you know, I was assigned to the Skytoucher in the middle of the Dantor mission. But a basic war took place on that planet between starfleet, marines, and some sort of spider species. Long story short, the excellent work of my science officer, Lieutenant Malia, ended the spiders' rampage. The Lieutenant came up with an explosive which released an acid, which destroyed the spiders in a mass way."
He paused.
"Also on Dantor I encountered problems with one of my own crew. If you have not been told already, Lieutenant Commander Balkazar was relieved of duty while on Dantor due to his insubordination. I was last aware that he was being transferred, at my request of course. Mr. Balkazar felt he was to command the entire situation, ignoring me on more than one occasion. As you can surmise, I did not tolerate such acts, and have no desire to experience them again".
He then broke from that subject into thier most recent assignment.
"Deep Space Twelve...That I assume you know more about. The borg came, and we seemed to be gaining the upper hand when the lifeform Na'jigat appeared, it destroyed the Borg Cube, probally a lifesaver for many of the fleet, since it had that much larger source of energy to devour. However, Deep Space Twelve was not safe from such a lifeform, and was destroyed in a swift manner.....From there, we were ordered by Admiral Karelia to return to our home bases, and here we are".

[Vorak]

OFF: I currently don't have any idea yet for a next mission for the Skytoucher. If you have anything in mind, feel free to propose it. http://www.expansionfleet.com/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

[Frank Gordon]

Ambassador Gordon entered the office.

"My apoligies for the abrupt entrance however I was not aware you had guests, and i very much think it appropriate to discuss in person what i sent you a few days ago."

[Balkazar]

*Balkazar returns to the station and goes to Montrell's office to drop off a PADD detailing his interesting field trip to Dantor, The Black Trojan, the rescue of Patrick brown, the progress of scotty and how well he handled the situation, and how he handled my surprise tests about the fake bomb, and the fake intruder alert.  The rest of the PADD trails off with lil tid bit information that was picked up and how well Dantor bases security was keeping up, and how well the base was being ran, along with other boring stuff*

*Balkazar then drops the PADD off at Montrell's office and heads for the DSA to catch up on everything that happened over there*

[Will Karelia]

Will hangs his head for a moment. "You're right. But how can I expect to just move on? Did you know that I knew every one of those people? I made sure of it. I have spoken to every one of those people, and they're all dead. Even some of the officers that I worked with daily are dead. Captain Freeman, he was one of my best friends. I saw him on Ops everyday. And Tom, my brother. My BROTHER, for God's sake! He died on the Tiberon. And all the bridge crew on the Righteous, I watched them die in front of my eyes. I beamed away from that hulk looking at their bloody corpses on the floor. And when I got to the Evolution, I saw that little ship shatter into a million pieces, and I watched as the station fell to the surface of Envidia II. I just... I just stared. Stared from my safe vantage point on that bridge."

Will slammed his hand on the admiral's desk. "I should have died there. Deep Space Twelve should have been my grave."

[Montrell]

*Montrell nods and salutes back*

*Montrell then grabs one of the padds laying on the table and goes to work*

"You are dismissed http://www.expansionfleet.com/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'>"

[Montrell]

*Montrell was standing in front of the replicator and saw a cup of Irish coffee and a cup of tea being replicated. He took them both and placed the Irish coffee in front of captain Sanchez and then sat down*

"I must say that I didn't expect such a report on Vontak Nor. You say that they have built their own "culture" and even the remaining Cardassians are working with them?"

*At that moment Hermes spoke*

"Ehrm...Yes Hermes, this wasn't the best moment to contact me. Let's ehrm..*Montrell thinks*..tell him that he will need to wait for the next transport. If I remember correctly there will be a ship heading that way next week or perhaps we can sent a shuttle but I will decide that later. Let me finish this debriefing first."

[Vorak]

=^= All senior officers, report to my office. =^=

[Taurik]

Taurik sees the Admiral is not there, and leaves the report on the desk, and walks out.

[Montrell]

"Well I can assure you that your findings at the end will satisfy your members back home. This project is still a succes and will become one of the best in Starfleet, I am sure. We have found new life and civilazations, we have made new discoveries on the scientific and engineering level. All these things have improved the status of Starfleet and the Federation, I can't see why someone in the Alpha Quadrant wouldn't be happy with these results."

*Montrell walks to one of the windows in his office*

"But I will cooperate in your investigation. You asked for a meeting with the senior officers on this station? I will arrange it. You ask for a detailed report on Admiral Vorak? I will arrange it. You ask for my resignation? I will arrange it. But you keep in mind that I will fight against any bureaucratic decision made and based on this investigation, which ofcourse had a negative effect on this project!"

[Montrell]

*Montrell was listening to the Captain's story, in the mean time he placed a glass of water in front of him. Montrell sat down in his chair and took little sips from his tea.*

"So you can confirm that Dantor is ready to be rebuild again? We have old reports that say otherwise, but it would be a great benefit for Starfleet if that planet is safe again."

*Montrell stops a moment and takes a padd*

"Captain, do you consider the incident with Lt. Commander Balkazar a case for the JAG department?"

[FredLurado]

He Stands.
"If that is all Admiral, or if a briefing for the Skytouchers next mission is in store for me..I am eager to find that pub". He finished off with a smile.

[Montrell]

"Ambassador, it's good to see you! Please enter"

*Montrell sees Ambassador Gordon entering and Montrell motions him to take a seat*

"I've not yet had the time to completely read your report, but it seems that you and Admiral Higgings don't agree on what has happend at Frontier. I have now heared the story from Admiral Higgins, but I'd like to hear your version"

[Montrell]

*Montrell walks behind Commander Rasmain, and as he sits down, Montrell walks to the other side of his desk*

"Very well Commander, it's good to see you. I've read your report on the battle of Avalon and I regret the loss of all those officers. They have given their lives for our survival and I made sure that their names a properly named in all our reports, they may not be forgotten! Including those from the other ships."

*Montrell stands up and walks over to a large window in his office*

"I can still see debris, flying around the station."

[Will Karelia]

The newly reinstated Admiral Karelia salutes his superior. "I won't, sir. Thank you, again!"
