       Josh stood up from his command chair.  "Let's proceed
       commander." Josh tapped his communicator. =^=Shepard all senior
       officers please report to the observation lounge.=^= Josh closed
       the channel.  He looked over at ensign Oskin. "Ensign you'll sit
       in on the meeting.  I'm going to keep you on as our primary ops
       officer for the remainder of the mission." Josh then walked
       towards the back of the bridge and turned the corner and entered
       the observation lounge. He walked up to the table and pulled his
       chair out and sat down waiting for the others to arrive.

       Main Engineering
       Ryan was sat at staring at the computer console, which faced the
       warp core. The blue sequence of lights was somewhat distracting
       him, the job he'd been assigned was to monitor the fuel
       consumption and prepare a report for the Chief. But it was a
       boring task and no doubt it was punishment, cruel and unusual
       punishment. Losing his black pip was bad enough, but did they
       have to keep rubbing his nose in it? Well it seemed so.
       The analysis was taking its time to complete and as such it made
       look like time had slowed down, or was it going backwards? Ryan
       couldn't tell anymore. Recently he'd been looking into getting
       out of Starfleet and joining the merchant service or possibly
       signing up on a freighter. Then as if fate had it in for him
       too, the console chimed and told him the analysis was lost and
       could not be recovered.
       "GOD DAMMIT." He yelled without thinking and drawing attention
       to himself.

       Bridge
       "Yes Captain" Brooke replied looking over at the young Ops
       officer as she rose from her seat, Ensign Oskin had proved so
       far to be a great asset to the Ops department and couldn't agree
       more with the Captain's decision to include him in the meeting.
       She then handed over control to Lieutenant Rogers before walking
       across the Bridge a little more slowly than usual until her
       joints decided to co operate and reached the Observation Lounge.
       Observation Lounge
       Feeling slightly better once the doors opened, Brooke returned
       to her usual cheery demeanour as she walked into the room as the
       last thing she wanted was any concern not with it being a
       momentary glitch. She then headed towards the top of the table
       and took her seat beside the Captain.

       Oskin Alexander blinked, once, twice, thrice, before he nodded
       and rose from his seat. He had not attended a senior staff
       meeting since cadet cruise training at Starfleet Academy. "Aye,
       Captain," he spoke and vacated his station for Lieutenant junior
       grade Jenaren-Benyu to take over the Operations station.
       "I guess they're not calling Murray in for this," Alexander
       remarked in a whisper as he quickly pointed out some pending
       tasks on the console.
       The Grazerite shrugged in return, "You can brief him next time
       you see him, perhaps he's caught something."
       "What? Like Lieutenant Shepard?" querried Alexander.
       "Surely not?" Jenaren-Benyu suddenly considered the matter. It
       was not what he had in mind, but now that Alexander connected
       those dots, he was unsure, "I don't know..." the Grazerite then
       nodded for the doorway towards the Observation Lounge, "Best get
       going, Ensign. You don't want to keep all those pips waiting."
       Observation Lounge
       By the sole merit that he had been on the bridge already, was
       Ensign Oskin Alexander the next officer to arrive. He nodded
       politely at the Captain and his first officer and stood at the
       distant end of the conference table, unsure as where to take a
       seat. He briefly tried to deduce how many officers would be
       attending, but soon gave up the attempt and decided to claim one
       of the chairs on the Captain's left-hand side, somewhere in the
       middle of the table.

       Mess Hall
       It was good to be back on a Starship once more Natalya had spent
       too long ferrying Diplomats around in Runabouts and even though
       she had managed to keep her temper the commander of the Runabout
       fleet had recommended she transfer before her fiery temper got
       the better of her.
       She walked slowly up to the food counter and smiled at the man
       behind the counter "I vould like zhe Bajoran Shrimp zalad and
       zome coffee" Her confidence was slowly returning after the
       incident with the Cardassian Soldier who had left her close to
       death once he had no further use for her, she knew full well she
       owed her life to John Anderson and had sworn one day to repay
       that debt.
       She made her way to the table with her coffee and sat silently
       sipping it asa she waited for her meal to arrive. She knew she
       had to report to medical at some point but that could wait for
       now as she started to learn her way around the Galaxy Class ship
       she was going to call home.
       There was never any doubt she could fly the ship and she knew
       exactly how the class responded to the helm.

       [Main Science Lab]
       A marvel of ingenuity was in front of him, as a reaction of
       dilithium and an unknown substance gave off a bright light,
       leaving a pristine crystal.  Well... it made the entire dish
       part of the crystal, but not the table, and that was a plus in
       his book.  One of the younger officers moved in with a device,
       checking its energetic properties.
       "Looks like it worked.  I'm seeing an increase in efficiency by
       24%. We need to try this in the reaction chamber!"
       Nevir chuckled.  "Now hold on, let's not rush into this.  Ever
       heard the USS Winslow?  They were doing similar types of
       experiments, and it nearly destroyed the ship in warp.  I'm not
       going to be the one who has to apologize to the Captain and
       Engineering when we're dead in the water.  Keep monitoring the
       crystal.  Make sure its not still in process."
       Nevir finally got the call from the Captain, and tapped his
       badge.  =/\="Acknowledged."=/\=
       "You guys need to hold down the fort.  Make sure Bilsby's
       crystal doesn't blow a hole in the ship." he said, turning and
       walking out of the lab.
       He made it to the observation room within moments, and walked
       in, taking an old but familiar seat across from the Captain and
       first officer.  He was a bit surprised at the other Bajoran
       looking person in the room, but it was good to know that he was
       only part of a growing number.

       John heard the hail and stood up grabbed a PADD and made his way
       to the door. "I would like for you to return to the Bridge while
       I am in the briefing." he said making his way to the lift and
       stepping in. "Bridge" he said as the lift started and then
       stopped not long after.
       [Bridge]
       John stepped onto the Bridge just long enough to walk across the
       back and in to the Observation Lounge.

       John walked in to see the CO, XO, Tekin and a young ensign from
       either OPS or engineering. He walked up to a chair next to Tekin
       and pulled it out and looked to the man and spoke. "Hello
       commander it is great to see you." he said.

       Bridge
       Jackson had been doing nothing but monitoring the flight path
       for hours when the captain stood and called the young Ensign but
       asking the senior staff meeting. Then shocked the young Ensign
       but asking Oskin to join them. This shocked Jackson even more by
       the pang of jealousy that flashed through him but the feeling
       was quickly replaced with a feeling of pride. He was happy to
       see Oskin getting the opportunity so to hell with his jealousy
       maybe one day he will get the chance as well.

       Nevir smiled and looked up.  "They got you too, hmm?  The
       Atlantis is fortunate.  They have a good Security Chief." he
       said, not wanting to take away from the Captain.  They should be
       starting any moment.

       Craig shortly arrived after him. "Permission Come aboard the
       bridge and resume duties." Craig said as he stood at attention.
