Miz’uki had been about to come up to the bridge when the call went out instead she went straight to the briefing room walking in “Hello Captain How arrre you today?” she purred politely walking over to the replicator she ordered herself a glass of warm milk and then turned to sit down at the table however as she did she thought she saw something move in the corner of her eye and she jumped spilling a small slosh of milk on the floor she growled under her breath as she sat down taking deep breaths and trying to calm herself down

”..I am well, Everything ok Lieutenant?” Drudoc asked.

Simon was just behind the captain as he made sure every member of the senior staff had PaDDs to have data transferred as it was required and took a water from the replicator, before taking a seat next to the captain. He looked on his PaDD while waiting for the rest of the senior staff to get up the specifications of the USS Brown Town, and it’s last known mission, to see if there were any logs accessible from the computer.

Lieutenant Simon Starr, XO

Information on the USS Brown Town was something along the lines of an old ghost story among the more superstitious like crew in Starfleet and the Federation. The ship had been adjusted to test a new series of warp formulas which was hoped to increase speed output and efficiency on ships with it by 25%. But as the tale and records went the ship no sooner had left space dock around Earth and cleared the Sol system and gone to warp then the ship had vanished from sensors no trace of it ever found......till now. The Anton class cruiser was in many forms a precursor to the later Miranda class, however, its short comings were in fuel, cargo storage, and weapons capacity, so it was mainly produced in low numbers up till 2255 when it was officially retired from productions. Those ships built served in mainly internal patrol and supply matters and were often seen as a bit of a punishment posting for the time.

Trax entered the meeting apparently late as the captain was already talking. He quietly took a seat as he listed to what he had heard and will get a transcript from the computer later for the missing information. As he waited for the meeting to continue.

Arthur walked in, and took a Raktajino from the replicator. He’d gotten used to drinking the beverage during his academy days when he was barred from drinking Bloodwine, and it was his on-duty drink of choice. He took a sip after slipping into his seat.

Arthur Jones, Son of Ruk

”..Greetings Lieutenants, please take a seat or drink if you wish we’ll be getting started shortly..” Drudoc said.

Lt. JG Philips showed up for the staff meeting. He sat down at an open chair. He wondered what the meeting would be about.

Lt. JG Philips Ops officer

Drudoc looked at Philips as he entered. “..Did Commander Trainor send you in his steed Lieutenant?” She asked. While such wouldn’t be unheard of to have a non-department head officer present was unusual for a senior staff briefing.

Drudoc Andone CO

“Yes sir, he was too busy to attend and he asked me to be here. I thought he told you.”

Lt. JG Philips Ops Officer

”..He had not, Lieutenant..” She replied frowning a bit. “..Very well take a seat, though if he does turn up you’ll have to excuse yourself from the senior staff meeting..” she stated.

Trax was a bit confused now he had thought the meeting started but in actuality, it had not. He must have been more distracted than he thought he was as he shook his head.

Lt Jg Trax Suder - CMO

“I understand, sir. I will tell him everything from this meeting.” Philips was thinking, I hope I’m not causing any trouble by being here. He made sure his PADD would be recording everything from the meeting.

Lt. JG Philips Ops Officer

”..You are not causing an issue by being here Lieutenant, only that your presence was not expected. It is no matter though.” She replied.

Simon nodded towards Phillip as he explained to the captain the situation, but stayed quiet, making a note on his PaDD as Phillip took a seat at the briefing table. He made note of the departments represented and noticed the chief science officer hadn’t arrived yet. “Shall I contact Lieutenant Frogue again, Captain? Science is the only department we’re waiting on now,” he asked, making sure the captain also believed a second call was due.

Lieutenant Simon Starr, XO

Drudoc nodded, “..Please do, Lieutenant Starr. We’ll wait another moment or so then I’ll begin..” She answered.

Drudoc Andone CO

=/\=Lieutenant Starr to Lieutenant Frogue, will you be joining us for the senior staff meeting?=/\= Simon asked as he tapped his commbadge. “And it’s better to have a department represented, than not have anybody, Lieutenant,” Simon added to the comment Phillips made and let out a small smile.

Lieutenant Simon Starr, XO

At the same time Lt. Frogue walked into the briefing room and took a chair; before he sat down Frogue said, “Sorry it took me so long to get here.”

Lt. Frogue

”..Try to be more prompt next time Lieutenant, take your seat.” She said.

Once everyone was settled she began. “..Alright seems we have picked up an automated distress beacon from the USS Browns Town, a mid-23rd century Anton class light cruiser lost with all hands in 2251 while field testing an at the time experimental warp field and plasma mixture outside the Sol system.” She said pressing a button showing the beacon was being picked up from the 3rd planet from the system they were currently entering. “..scans show the beacon is on the 3rd planet, so we can anticipate the ship or survivors are planet side. Due to weather in the region we can’t yet get a clear scan of the site until we reach orbit.” She explained.

”..Till then department orders are as follows, Medical shall prep all sickbays for potential injured or survivors, Operations and Engineering I want prepped for possible recovery efforts of the ship’s remains. Science I want a full scan of the system, ensure there are no surprises lying in wait for us, and finally Security will prep to secure a landing site and the system once we hit orbit. Once there we’ll reassess the situation and proceed carefully. But for now this is a rescue operation. Questions?” She asked.

Drudoc Andone CO

“Ops will be ready for the recovery phase. Everything will be prepared by the time we arrive.”

Lt. JG Philips
Ops Officer

“Run landing zone securing drills.” Arthur thought out loud, before taking a sip from his coffee. “I’ll have us run both standard and defensive drills, on the off chance this changes from a rescue operation.”

Miz’uki had been paying attention initally and knew what the situation was however her eyes soon went vacant as she just was not really there she could feel the tickle of that roach crawling up her tail even though it was long since dead and she was using every bit of her concentration to keep herself from freaking out at a phantom
