Ensign Valharra after walking out of the Captain’s office, had entered Lt. Mwezi’s old office. He sat in the chair behind the desk and put the case with the Sheriff stars and gun down on the desk and teared up. “I will miss you, Lt. Mwezi. Thank you for everything you taught me.” He said to the empty room. Then the announcement came over the intercom.
(copied from https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf5/chernov/posts/143793/) “[O]Doctor Symar. We are twelve hours out from your destination. Please have all of your personnel ready and assembled in Shuttlebay 1 by that time.[O]

[O] Security. Arm yourselves and meet in Shuttlebay 2 in twelve hours for your assignments as well. All other security officers will arm themselves and patrol the ship and set up posts in key areas.[O]

Taking a deep breath before Toggling again. [O] Bridge to the Chernov crew! We will be entering the Neutral Zone territory in one hour. I want everyone to arm themselves that is qualified to do so. We will be running quiet so no outside transmissions are allowed. We’ll be on yellow alert from this moment on. Be safe and be careful. Taggart out.[O]”

He got up and walked out to the brig and the security team working at their sections. “Well, as you all know, Lt. Mwezi is not coming back, and I was just in the Captain’s office, effective immediately, as you’ve probably noticed by my new pips, I have been promoted to Lieutenant, and am the new Weapon’s Officer/Chief of Security. But, as the Captain has also stated, we are almost to our next mission destination, and we need to get ready, so grab your weapons, and kits and get to the shuttle bay, I will meet you there.” He told the staff. He went back into Lt. Mwezi’s old office, now his, and grabbed the small sheriff badge and attached it to his uniform.
Lt. Valharra, Weapons Officer

This was Umbri’s first encounter with Lt. Valharra. Being the CoS seemed to suit him very well. She may not have known Lt. Mwezi (who she figured was Lt. Valharra’s predecessor), but she could tell that Lt. Valharra thought very highly of him. Umbri even saw some tears in his eyes, which she was a little surprised by considering he was Vulcan and all. They’re not exactly known for getting emotional.

As for the mission at hand, the message from Captain Taggart (who she imagined would meet very soon) was the first Umbri had heard about it. Clearly, a lot happened prior to her boarding the USS Chernov, especially considering they were about to enter the Neutral Zone. She was honestly kind of worried about being unprepared for the mission. She quickly shook herself out of her thoughts and went to the Armory to grab her weapons as well as her mission kit. ‘Lt. Valharra probably knows that I’m new, so I’m sure he’ll be happy to help me with anything I need. I just have to ask for help,’ she thought. Umbri made sure no one was looking before she pulled her lucky necklace out from under her uniform, pressed a kiss to it, and quickly hid it once again. After taking a deep breath, she nodded. “Okay. Let’s do this,” she whispered to herself, making her way to Shuttlebay 2.

Ensign Umbri Zayne, Security

When Lt. Valharra arrived at Shuttlebay 2, he saw Ensign Zayne standing off to the corner, waiting for instructions on what to do next. He wasn’t sure what their mission was going to be either, since he just got the promotion and was told to tell certain security staff the Captain wanted to meet in the bay for further instruction. He walked up to Ensign Zayne. “Hello again, I remember you just joined the ship. Glad to see you are finding your way around it fairly well.” He started the conversation. “I’m sure you have lots of questions, and as the new CoS, I should have the answers, if I don’t, I’ll find them for you, just don’t be afraid to ask.” He stated.
LT. Valharra, Weapons Officer

Umbri looked up at Lt. Valharra. “Honestly, I feel a little unprepared. I’ve barely gotten settled in and we’re already heading into the Neutral Zone, which is the last thing I expected out of my first mission with this crew. But the biggest reason why I’m nervous is because I can tell a lot happened on this ship before I arrived. I figured that out when there was no CoS at the time I docked and I had my department check-in with Lt. Commander T’Aria. Plus I’m detecting a very somber atmosphere among the crew. You’ve obviously been here longer than I have, so would you mind getting me up to speed?” she asked.

Ensign Umbri Zayne, Security

“Well, our last mission, something medical happened to Lt. Mwezi, the last CoS, or weapon’s officer. When we got to his home planet, as our CMO couldn’t figure out how to treat him, we learned there was an incident on the planet, and his wife was involved. When he got better, he went to see what happened, and he ended up dying as well, I don’t know all the details, as I was on the planet with the XO, and was not there where he was. Lt. Mwezi had been on the ship for a long time, so losing him has affected a lot of the crew. As far as this mission, I have no more information on it than you do. I didn’t learn about it till he made the announcement.” Lt. Valharra explained.
Lt. Valharra, Weapon’s Officer

Hearing the full story of Lt. Mwezi helped Umbri understand what Lt. Valharra – along with the rest of the crew – was going through. “I’m truly sorry for your loss. I bet he was a good man. And thanks for being open about your knowledge of this mission. It’s good to know I’m not alone,” she said.

Ensign Umbri Zayne, Security

“We all are truly sorry Ensign.” The Captain said as he walked into the bay and stood staring at the Ensign with his one good eye for a moment before waking up and down the line. “It was a great blow but thankfully the ship has redundancies. We”.... he said pointing to all the staff and himself.....”are one of those. That is why it is imperative that you all learn from the next highest being all their duties, because you just might yourself there in a blink of an eye. The same goes in reverse. Higher-ups need to show their crew how to do their jobs as well, in order to maintain this cycle. That way no one person is a detriment to the ship when they die or leave, including myself.”

“Now Lieutenant Valharra. Report.”

Captain Chris Taggart CO

Umbri was admittedly a little intimidated when she locked eyes with the Captain. She had a feeling he’d be watching her very closely during this mission. ‘Let’s make sure his first impression of me is a good one. From this point on, I’m giving one-hundred percent,’ Umbri thought.

William entered the shuttlebay and stood still as a statue behind the Captain’s left shoulder a proper distance away if necessary, he wasn’t sure if he was needed as of yet but he would be there in case.

bumping so we don’t lose this thread

Bumping to stay out of AWOL

OOC:
Sorry, had some life issues happening (had to be Tom catching Jerry) and schedule changes (it did give a pay raise, so that was nice), it was a mess, but I’m back.
Rusty

IC:
“Yes sir.” Lt. Valharra said as the Vulcan moved to stand in front of the captain, in the position of attention. “Lt. Valharra reporting as ordered, sir.” He responded when he was right in front of Captain Taggart.
Lt. Valharra, Weapons officer.

“That will do Lieutenant. I want to let you all know how proud I am of you all and the seriousness of this mission. You will be going down to help assist the colony in security and defenses. You will report to a man named Captain Charles Longfellow. He is a former Marine and in charge of the militia down there. We will be heading off to another spot after you depart so if you call for us, it will take some time before we can arrive. Is that understood?”

Commander Grey will be going down as the Officer in Charge or OIC of the landing party between you all and the medical team. Commander Grey is here now. Commander. Do you have anything to say before you all leave in 30 minutes?”

Captain Chris Taggart CO

OOC: Along with this post, I decided to go through and do some spell-checking on everyone else’s posts. Just my way of helping out!

IC:
It was definitely a lot of information for Umbri to take in, but it was nothing she couldn’t handle. Not seeing any reason to say anything, she simply nodded in response.

Ensign Umbri Zayne, Security

William cocked his head slightly at being chosen to lead the away team, it wouldn’t be his first time leading a team but technically this was the first time being assigned the duty in advance “Will the team consist of only myself, Valharra and Zayne?” HE asked the Captain.

CSO, 2O

OOC: Bumping so I don’t risk going into AWOL. Sorry for being quiet the last few days. Busy with band camp and there honestly hasn’t been much for me to do on here lately.

Alison Hanna

“Yes Commander. Plus 12 NE security officers and a medical team of equal size. Two shuttles will depart very soon. I suggest you get kitted up and bring a phaser.”

Captain Chris Taggart CO

William didn’t respond, he simply stared at the Captain expressionlessly which for him was as good as gaping openly. He gave himself a visible shake, blinking twice before nodding “Understood sir” He turned to the Weapons Officer “Valharra, gather your team and have them prepared posthaste, I want them situated into teams of four, two Medical and two Security staff to begin with until you can assess the status on the ground” He spoke with the same cold arrogance as he always did, even if shaken he quickly regained his confidence “I’ll be assigning Kostas to the Bridge sir” He said to the Captain as he walked away slowly “He’s the least useless of my staff” That was almost a joke, perhaps he was a little more shaken than he let on.

CSO

“Understood, Ensign Zayne, you’re with me, and you two ensigns go on that ship.” He responded to the CSO and issued his orders. “Captain, I’ll have Ensign Thorne at the tactical on the bridge while we are on this mission.” Lt. Valharra stated and then lead his teams to the ships for takeoff.
Lt. Valharra, Weapon’s officer.

Chris smiled. “That shuttle is now known as USS Mwezi and the medical shuttle as Kane. I’ll put in the proper paperwork later but from now on, that’s what I’m calling them. We owe at least this much to them. You all leave in 10 minutes. I’ll be on the bridge. Good luck and may the force be with you all.” He smiled at that then turned to leave.

Captain Chris Taggart CO

Umbri nodded in response to Lieutenant Valharra’s words. “Aye, sir,” she said, following him into the shuttle.

Ensign Umbri Zayne, Security

After a quick stop in his Science lab to grab his Tricorder and give his final orders and a stop at the armory for a Phaser William returned to the Shuttlebay. The tricorder was slung over his shoulder hanging on his left side. On his right side, his phaser was sitting in its holster attached to the belt around his waist. It almost looked like it belonged on the thin man, he’d gotten more used to carrying a weapon over the past few years than he’d have thought.
