Mwezi looked back at Sideman. “You might as well head back to bed. Get some sleep and let me finish the Night shift,” he commented with a small smile.

“What’s our current speed Helsman” he asked.

Lt. Commander Michael Sideman, XO

“Warp 5.5, sir. It’s a bit faster than our regular cruising speed, so I’ll have to slow down soon. The Orion border is pretty far away,” NE Peters replied, glancing back at Mwezi, who nodded in approval.

There was an incoming message on the PaDD that gave them their orders.

===MISSION BREIF FOR USS CHERNOV===

The Chernov will make it’s way to planet Ordel to meet with Govenor Delain. Governor Delain will be in the capital city of Gongdu and will have an entourage waiting to escort the Captain and whomever he sees fit to come along. No weapons will be allowed and the Ordelians will not have any weapons either. The Captain and or his delegate are there to negotiate a first contact treaty. You are to secure as much resources as you can with mining rights and the like as well as establish a good report and an embassy. Starfleet will send the new Ambassador once a favorable contract has been signed. The planet is rich in Bio-mimetic gel: A volatile substance with medical applications. It is also highly sought after for use in illegal activities, such as genetic experimentation and biological weapons development. As such, its use is strictly regulated by the United Federation of Planets, and sale of the substance is prohibited.

There will be other buyers/First Contact personnel from various other planets and worlds from different systems. If you see any new species, then as a secondary mission, perform a First Contact on them as well. It is unknown what other species are going to be there but expect the Orions and Klingons. It is also unknown as to how the Ordelians contacted us as no one has ever contacted their species or planet before. Be careful.

Captain Chris Taggart, CO

Cruising at warp to Ordel would be smooth, demanding little attention until the ship ground to a halt. NE Peters rose from his seat at the helm, approached a security officer and held out his hand. Without making eye contact, NE Vulk handed over his phaser. TimothyLooming ressed a button, turning the setting to kill. He raised the weapon and ended his life. Vulk picked up and holstered his weapon.

Sideman seeing the events yelled, “What the hell is going on?”

Pressing a button on the Captain’s chair he commanded, “Security to the bridge on the double.”

Looking over at the security officer Commander Sideman continued, “You are under arrest..hand over your weapon.”

Sideman moved over to NE Vulk and continued, “Slowly, give me your phaser.”

Sideman

Vulk looked blankly at Sideman. “What happened sir?”

-Fate

“What do you mean what happened? A man just killed himself right here with your weapon and you did nothing to stop it” answered the Commander.

Looking around he continued, “Where is my security detail and get me a new helmsman” ordered the Commander.

Sideman

Security arrived on the bridge and surrounded Vulk. “Hand over your weapon ensign. Nice and slow.” Vulk offered his phaser but didn’t move. “I still don’t understand.” A new helm officer took her place. “Sir. Helm controls are not responding.” Security pulled Vulk towards the turbolift doors. “We’ll get to the bottom of this Commander.”

[O]Security to sickbay, we have casualties on the bridge.[C]

-Fate

As the lift doors opened, Bridie gasped and stepped swiftly onto the bridge to give the security detail room. “What’s going on?” She asked and looked around. She was the Engineer on duty for first shift, and there to get the morning CO briefing if there was one.

Moving to the Engineering station, she did a quick check then looked at Sideman. “Sir… is everything all right?” She was frowning in concern and wondered what was happening.

Looking over at Bridie Sideman replied, “Can you figure out why the helm will not work?”

Then he responded to security, “Take the Ensign to medical and see if they can figure out why he has a lag in his memory.”

At the same time Sideman thought to himself, ‘What the hell is going on?”
