       " Actually there is Captain I'm slightly concerned about the Ops
       department, I'm hoping that today was just a blip with me having
       to bring in Ensign Oskin early perhaps its something we may need
       to keep a close eye on " She replied voicing her concern
       quietly. It wasn't something she took lightly but it was better
       said out loud rather than keep quiet especially when it
       concerned the welfare of the crew. On the whole all departments
       were running well but with the nature of their mission didn't
       want anything jeopardising it.

       Josh thought for a moment.  "If our officers are unable to take
       their posts then they will be disciplined with dereliction of
       duty,  failure to report for duty.  If it becomes a serious
       problem then we could ask commander Edwards to see if they have
       an officer they can spare. We can then keep him or her on loan
       until we can find a stable replacement."

       "Agreed Captain, perhaps after the staff meeting we can make
       Commander Edwards aware of the situation and I'm sure he will
       have no issue loaning us one of his team should the need arise
       but in the meantime I will keep a tight reign on the rosters "
       she replied. Brooke didn't want to discipline anyone but this
       was a serious matter and if it continued then she would speak to
       those who may be causing the issue to find out why.

       Josh smiled and nodded at her.  "I know you'll do what you need
       to to make sure the ship runs smoothly." Josh tapped a button on
       his chair and brought up a display screen that shows all the
       departments. Everyone is in the green and the ship is fully
       functional.  He then pulled out his PADD and began reading the
       information they have about what has happened. It's not much to
       go on but from what is in the report they grew "unhappy" with
       the Federation.  Josh thought for a moment.  "Could this be a
       dominion attempt to rebuild their forces?  There's no evidence
       to point to that but he didn't want to rule it out.

       "Thank you Captain" Brooke replied returning the smile before he
       went back to the PADD, with everything running smoothly and the
       impending staff meeting Brooke returned to her own control panel
       on the arm of her chair. She brought up the rosters again this
       time highlighting what she had brought up with the Captain and
       moved it into her personal files where she could keep a record
       of what had been happening.

       Bridge
       Ensign Oskin Alexander was considering some simultaneous
       requests for sensor access from various Science labs when his
       train of thought was interrupter by loose words that floated
       around the bridge and caught his attention.

       At first, the half-Bajoran, half-Human officer figured that his
       acknowledgement was sought after and he had half turned sideways
       to look in the direction of where the words at come from. He was
       about to ask out loud whether he had missed something but he was
       unsure; no one seemed to meet his inquiring glance. The Captain
       and the First Officer were speaking amongst themselves. He
       picked up something about the Dominion. The Security officer at
       Tactical was clearly mind his own business, as were the two
       officers -Lieutenant junior grade Jenaren-Benyu being one of
       them- working on the consoles in the back. Ensign McQueen surely
       had not addressed him, that would have been evident.
       Alexander shook it off and turned back to his console. Was
       caffeine hallucinogenic? He did not rightly know. Besides... he
       had drunk only two cups of strong raktajino. Surely he had
       consumed vast multitudes of such a dose during studying binges
       at Starfleet Academy.
       A few counts longer he considered the matter, until he finally
       shrugged and returned his focus to the allocation of sensor
       access.

       Craig entered and then looking at the SCO he poped to attention
       and stated his name and rank "LTJG Craig McGrory reporting for
       duty. I have been transfered to the Atlantis as per the Admirals
       request." Craig finished by placing his hand out with the orders
       on his PADD and waited for his new superior to look them over.

       John nodded to the man and took the PADD and looked it over be
       for he sat back down. He motioned to the chairs before him and
       spoke.
       "Nice to meet you McGrory, looks like we will learn the ship and
       crew together. I am making you acting assistant chief of
       security and tactical until Lieutenant Shepard is fit for duty.
       I prefer to be on the Bridge but there was a medical mishap when
       I came onboard that rendered me restricted for a bit but, I am
       up to par and ready to return to full duty. That said for now
       you will always be incharge of the shift after me until Shepard
       is well. We will have personal training once a week more of you
       like, we will pratice with all Starfleet weapons and all other
       Federation and non-federation weapons. We will also fence from
       time to time and I like to run a simulation from time to time to
       keep us sharp. I may be the DH but I am also your crewmate so do
       not feel bound by rank when we are off duty the only way we can
       work well as a team is to be friends out of uniform and in." he
       said as he looked at the younger man.

       [quote=Joshua Shepard]Josh walked completely out of the door
       way. He started to walk to his chair. He quickly turned to the
       doctor before the doors on the turbolift closed.  "Doctor please
       be available, I'll be calling a senior briefing before we arrive
       at Andoria." But before she could respond the doors closed. Josh
       then walked towards his chair and sat down. He looked over
       towards Brooke.  He knew that was at warp bit not much time has
       passed maybe thirty minutes. They still had 32 hours before they
       arrived. "Commander i want a staff meeting in two hours." Josh
       looked over at ops. He noticed Ensign Oskin at the station.
       "What happened to Ensign Murray?"[/quote]
       Turbolift
       Reava heard the Captain but due to the turbolift closing she was
       unable to respond, in fact she didn't even have a moment to open
       her mouth and considering that the Captain was human she
       couldn't speak telepathically to him either. The turbolift doors
       reopened and stepping out the ginger haired female made her way
       back to sickbay when she heard an announcement.
       [quote=Brooke Edwards]"Understood I'll make the announcement
       Captain " Brooke replied looking back at the Captain however
       before she could open the comm he asked about Ensign Murray. "
       His duty shift was about to end and there was no one to relieve
       him so I called Ensign Oskin to start his shift early ". She
       would need to speak to the Captain about the rosters at some
       point but there was plenty of time to do that before they
       arrived at Andoria. Thumbing the panel beside her she opened a
       channel =/\= Commander Edwards to all Senior Staff there will be
       a meeting in the Conference Room in two hours,
       Edwards out =/\= She then closed the channel and returned her
       attention to the Captain.[/quote]
       Hallway
       Two hours wasn't a lot of time but it would be enough for Reava
       to focus her mind on the Lieutenant. Given all that had gone on
       even before the Atlantis and her crew ventured off into space to
       Andoria Reava hadn't had the chance to venture any further than
       the fact that the Lieutenant didn't have a parasite.
       Sickbay to Doctor's Office
       Entering into the sickbay she entered into her office and looked
       through the PADD that she had left on her desk. This particular
       one was used for medical purposes only so as to keep track
       better than if she placed everything on it. She varied between
       the PADD and the computer screen and sighed. Setting the PADD
       down Reava closed her eyes and focused her mind on the
       Lieutenant's health, his species, his background.

       Five Minutes Before Senior Staff Briefing
       The last couple of hours have been uneventful for the crew of
       the Atlantis but now it is time for the Senior Staff to be
       briefed about the ship's mission to Andoria and what their plan
       of action will be.
