The Commodore checked in with the yeoman outside the ship and as he stepped onto the ship, he heard the familiar whistle announcing his arrival on the ship. He pressed the button outside the turbolift and smiled at a crewman passing by as he waited.

The moment the Commodore was gone, Rand lifted her comm off her belt and flipped it open. [O] Rand to Bridge. Inform Cpt. Asam that Commodore Nechilla has arrived on board.[C]

[O]Aknowleged Rand. Captain Asam said to pass along her thanks. Bridge out.[C]

Asam turned to Alden who was doing a rotation of bridge duty. “Are we due an official inspection?” They had just come off some interesting missions. The crew needed a break and the K7 crews had swarmed the ship. They were far from inspection ready. Oh well, the Captain thought. Take ‘em or leave ‘em. The Sentinel had an outstanding crew.

“Yes, Captain, I would have warned you, but I lost track of it. It won’t happen again,” Alden replied crisply.

The familiar whoos sounded and he waited until a few junior officers stepped off headed for the starbase. Once in the lift he twisted the handle. “Bridge” His deep voice was deadened by the carpet in the lift.

He stepped off the lift and onto the bridge. The familiar sounds greeted him as he stepped off the lift and onto the bridge. “Captain Asam, May we talk in private for a moment?”

She stood from her chair, at attention, just like the rest of the bridge crew, as Nechilla stepped off the lift. “Of course Commodore, we can use the conference room on Deck 3.” She motioned for Alden to join them. “Lt. Ra’ti,” she addressed their tactical officer, “You have the conn.”

Cpt. Asam, CO

He moved across the bridge to join the two of them. “Commodore.” He greeted, his posture perfect, his uniform and hair neat and clean and crisp.

“Captain, Commander.” the Commodore stepped on the turbolift with them. As soon as the doors closed he clasped his hands behind his back. “I’m sorry for coming unannounced. This isn’t an inspection. We have received disturbing news from an Andorian Mining and refinery colony.”

They stepped off the lift and continued to talk toward the conference room. “We don’t have a lot of details at this time, the Andorians were’t sure what had happened. All they know is they got a general order distress call.”

As they sat down, Nechilla slid a data disk toward the Captain. “Captain, the Federation has requested that Starfleet look into this matter. Both from a Diplomatic view and to investigate the distress signal.” He sighed. “I’m sorry to send you off so quickly but, the Federation is relying on that Tritanium and the Andorians don’t have the resources to cover this at the moment.” He pause then stood up. “Captain, I’ll leave you two to over the orders. If you have any questions about the orders, please contact my office. You have 24 hours to restock and depart.”

As the commodore left the room, the data disk held the following orders:

SHIP DIRECTION ORDERS
FROM THE OFFICE OF COMMODORE NECHILLA
TO: COMMANDING OFFICER OF USS SENTINEL

The USS Sentinel is hereby ordered to Cipharus III and make contact with Prime Minister Tolian and with Scrilla, who is in charge of the Mining Colory and Refinery Efforts on Cipharus III.

Establish a diplomatic rapport with Prime Minister Tolian to investigate the general distress call.

SIGNED
