Yeoman had their tricks of the trade. One of those was a dedicated station in their ‘office’ that allowed the to monitor the bridge. The reason for this was so that reports didn’t miss anything. All happenings on the bridge were recorded anyway, so this station allowed the yeomen to either review or listen live in order to create their reports. “Randy, you get to be captain’s yeoman for the day. Carmichael is sending me with the away team.” She got up handing him the PaDD she’d been compiling the reports on. “Don’t forget Cpt Carmichael’s mid day log. Oh and do us both a favor and bring Tea/Coffee/Water for the whole bridge crew.” Rand donned her jacket, grabbed her tricorder after loading the information from the Sigma 9 data disks and left. Minutes later she was walking through the shuttle bay doors. She knew they would be taking the shuttle because she’d also seen the reports and knew the transporters were not operational yet.

Bolurson strolled in through the shuttle bay doors. He saw the yeoman there, nodded to her and waited for the rest of the landing party to arrive, as he found the data chip he recorded a message for Helga.. He had his phaser and his tricorder ready. He had sent his last message of love and devotion to Helga the night before, not to mention how much he longed to hold her in his arms and care for her and the life she had growing inside her body. He told he he’d be seeing them on his next shore leave on Earth. He didn’t know when it would be happening, just that he would.

He handed the data chip to Rand and said, “Yeoman, you look after sending messages back home, don’t you? My latest message for Helga.”

Rand looked at the security En and sighed to herself. “Actually that would be the comms officer. However why don’t we leave this somewhere safe. We don’t want your message getting lost planet side. Come with me.” She walked over to the shuttle bay control, inserted the disk and sent the message to the comm officer currently on duty. She then sent a copy to Randy requesting that he check the comm logs to make sure it got sent.

NE Baldurdash spoke up from the pilot’s chair. “..Well folks looks like we’ll have a little of a bumpy ride through landing, local storm is moving in so longer we wait the worse it’ll get. All aboard that’s coming aboard and all that! Puke bags are under your seats!” He said with a grin.

A bumby ride? How bumby she wondered because those old rust buckets they did training in had no inertial dampeners. And luckily for Rand she’d never been one to get space sick. Rand was on her way into the shuttle when the Ford and the other security officers arrived and she paused waiting to make sure there were no other instructions.
Ford entered a moment later followed by NE Smith and NE Siruk, all three already with phasers holstered. “Good work, Bolurson,” he called, seeing the other security member there. He ordered the security crew onto the waiting shuttle and popped open the phaser case he was still carrying, removing one.

“Ensign Farquharson,” he said, extending it toward her.

COS Ford

She walked back over to Ford hearing her name. She looked at the phaser and back at him. She could shoot it of course, spending time with her father and her brother in the highlands meant that target practice was a favorite past time. But…”Lt I’m not cleared for a phaser.” Like they’d spoken before she’d barely shamed the academy instructor into a couple weekend hand to hand practices. Female officers, and female yeoman at that, didn’t rate getting weapons or combat training.

Ford was writing on a sheet of paper with the other hand. “We’ve been called to investigate a series of murders and disappearances, Ensign. This entire colony is an active crime scene. I would much rather you have it and not need it than need it and not have it.” He glanced at her. “It’s set to stun,” he added. “Don’t change that, and you won’t be able to do permanent damage.”

COS Ford

Having told him the information he needed and then his insistence Rand mentally shrugged. “Yes, Sir.” He was in charge and she’d follow orders. She wondered vaguely if his offer for hand to hand classes might extend to phaser training. She took the phaser and strapped on a holster. She shifted the tricorder around to make sure it wasn’t in the way of the phaser. She turned and boarded the shuttle taking a seat in the middle so that she neither got in the way of the shuttle control or security’s access to the rear hatch.

The Captain fidgeted in his chair, it hadn’t been long since the communication had ended and he’d sent his landing team but he was growing anxious, why hadn’t they departed yet was something wrong with the shuttles and the transporter? =C=Landig team report, is there a reason for your delay?=C= he didn’t mean to sound rude but his anxiety may have come of as such.

Rand sighed, captains were so impatient. They could take all the time in the world but thought the rest of the crew could just blink and it happen, like some kind of Genie.
Her role was to record everything and handle basic communication with the ship. So with that in mind she pulled out her communicator and flipped it open. =C=Yeoman Rand here, Captain. There appears to be a storm moving across the planet. Our pilot is adjusting our course to compensate, we will be leaving momentarily.=C= She closed the communicator and nodded toward Ford and the pilot as if to say, she’d bought them about 30 seconds.
Yeoman Rand

Satisfied with his answer there came no response but t would be clear to the away team that Elijah wanted them departed 5 minutes ago.
