Mission: Azimuth Horizon: Crusade - Chapter 3: Preparations
Location: SB10

Jureth could only shake his head as he listened to the plans the Alsea's Chief Engineer, Captain Kheren, and the Fleet Captain laid out for the Alsea. He didn't like, not one bit. In his mind separating the Alsea even in formation with the Artemis, was a mistake, and he had the uneasy feeling that it was one they would regret. He was sure Captain Siduri would have never gone along with such a plan, but unfortunately the captain was not here to object. He noted LtCdr. Lire's satisfaction that his recommendation was being taken over Oseno's own and shook his head again. "They're making a mistake," Jureth thought "Lire is going to rush modifications on warp cores that are already highly modified, and might just get us all killed in the process never mind the poor tactics of it." The human phrase "playing with fire" immediately entered Jureth's mind and he had visions of one of the Alsea's warp cores overloading, or going completely dead and leaving the most powerful ship in the fleet crippled.

"Prophets help us," he said quitely though not loud enough for anyone save perhaps Josh Vincent sitting next to him to hear it.

Oseno then turned his attention back to his PADD and fired off orders to his assistants Lieutenants Steele and T'Lana:

"Initiate full shipboard security sweeps for contraband weapons, explosives, and anything else out of the ordinary. Sweep all major spaces, and crew quarters and if anyone gives you trouble send them to me, or arrest them and confine them to the brig. Also, it is likely the ship will be opearting in MVAM shortly after departure, so confirm MVAM assignments and make sure all sections have appropriate security complements and weapons. Finally, set up a computer guided review of all personnel records. Search for anything that might indicate a person is not whom they say they are or could have potential ties to any fanatical organizations. These orders are to be carried out immediately.

-Lt. Oseno"

Jureth then turned his attention back to the briefing even though he was tempted to walk out and take charge of the Alsea's security preparations himself.
