Welcome to the USS Thunderbird!

ConferenceRoomUpdated.jpg

In 2369, with tensions rising between the Maquis, the Cardassians and the Federation, the USS Thunderbird arrives at Kelvas Junction, a neutral point close to the demilitarized zone. Ambassador Tasat, along with his aide and two heavily armed security officers, arrives to conduct negotiations with Ambassador Oryx of the Federation.

The first meeting immediately becomes contentious. Tasat accuses Federation colonists of sheltering terrorists and destroying infrastructure within Cardassian space while Oryx has evidence that Cardassian patrols have seized medical shipments and relocated civilian populations.

And while both sides argue their points, univited guests are about to express their particular point of view.

"Welcome to the USS Faraday, Sir," the young man said. Dressed in engineering blue, he bounced lightly on the balls of his feet, shifting back and forth as he spoke. "Just got her registration number, NCC-72318. We're about through our last inspections." He gaze turned hopeful as he proffered a PADD. "I can run through it all with you if you like?"

"Thank you, Ensign," Rylan said, his English accent, refined in the boarding schools he grew up in, clearly evident; he suppressed a smile though his gray eyes twinkled somewhat at the apparent display of enthusiasm. "I do want…

"Lieutenant, the Workbee tractor beam emitters are fitted. We're flight checking them now," Chief Bilz reported, joining the pair of pilots at the flight operations table. The grizzled Napean non-com folded his arms and took a look at the display that Hale and Dunne were crowded around. "Looks like a pretty routine plan."

"Mmm. Besides the risk of explosive decompression." Hale looked to Dunne. "Are you still comfortable with the plan?"

"Yes, Sir," Dunne replied. "I'm thinking Engineering can prevent the whole blasting everyone into space scenario." She cocked her head slightly to one side, the tiniest of grins on…

Air rushing into her lungs, Oryx's eyes shot open to pure darkness. Coughing up a lungful of dust, the Selay felt something pressing down upon her. Adrenaline began to fill her body, her senses sharpened. She pushed upward. Whatever pinned her was long and wide, and the slight rattle above suggested a heap of debris rested upon it. Feeling her muscles burn from the fruitless attempt to free herself, she ceased for a moment and took a breath.

She'd been here before, many years ago, when the Anticans bombed her barracks.

She was rescued then. She would be rescued now.…

[Conference Room - Deck 1]

He had spent a tense twenty minutes talking to Gul Maret who relaxed only after being able to see Ambassador Tasat appear, relatively unharmed, on the view screen. The Ambassadors and their staff were still aboard, talking things through, while the crew were preparing the Thunderbird for its trip back to Starbase 11. When the Ambassadors calld a break, Norsgaard called a brief meeting of the senior staff to get an update and issue assignments. "Before we interrogate our prisoner, I wanted to go over what we know. Lieutenant Barnes, has your team had a…

Sylar stood alone in the medical laboratory, door seals in place and Doctors Petracca and Redstone briefed to disturb him only if essential (and with careful clarification of the definition of ‘essential’). Both were qualified to support an autopsy, but he had immediately decided, upon being tasked by the Captain, to perform this duty alone. The laboratory was quiet, save for the low hum of the scanners and the almost unnoticeable sound of the laboratory’s climate control. Beyond, all around the ship, the crew continued to recover from the collision; Barnes’ engineers working tirelessly to repair the damage to the…
