Mission: Azimuth Horizon: Crusade - Chapter 3: Preparations
Location: USS Lotus

Gould and Vincent materialized aboard the Lotus within the main transporter room, Gould took little time for pleasantry's.

"Welcome aboard the Lotus Mr. Vincent, after you check in with the quartermaster meet with the security division and prepare for the screening, expect a lot of complaining. After thats in the works report to the bridge for your command transfer as chief of security, we'd do it first normally but were on a tight schedule and Lt. Commander Tomah, our acting CSO can hold the fort til you get there."

Without pausing for a breath he tapped his comm badge. "Gould to Lt. Adams"

(Response)

"I shall be arriving shortly at main engineering, I'd like to meet my chief of engineering before we start getting on our way, nothing to extreme so don't start polishing the brass but I don't want to see anyone sleeping down there either.

(Response)

"Vary good, Gould out."

The transporter operator added in. "Captain, Lieutenant JG Thomas Sainthill also checked in while you were at the meeting."

Gould nodded "Excellent, I was starting to worry we'd have to leave without a science officer. Let me know when Dr. Bindo arrives as well, and find out she wants you to transfer any recently acquired bio-filters for her tests.. I'm sorry, what was your name again?."

"Master chief petty officer Janin Olsen and we haven't met until now.. sir." she said with in a professional tone.

"Oh right, well carry on Olsen." she gave a stiff nod "aye sir" then Gould looked at Vincent. "I'm sorry lieutenant, did you have any questions for me?"

"No sir," Josh replied. "I'll see you on the bridge after I get things set for the screening."

Shortly after the two men had departed Jolie stepped off of the transporter pad where she'd been beamed aboard. Her PADD was in hand, with all the medical security procedures from Dr. Nasaro-Myth and the scientific data from her discussion with both him and Mr. Syntron. She tapped her combadge. "Computer, locate the captain."

*Captain Gould is in main Engineering,* came the pleasant female computer voice.

Olsen piped in "The captain asked me to see if you needed our most resent Bio-filter patterns doctor." Preoccupied, Bindo didn't even hear her and walked straight out of the room, Olsen rolled her eyes and went about her work. Officers.. and gave a little smile at least Tomah's not like that, he always listens to me.

Bondo jogged to a lift and took it to the Engineering section. She caught sight of the hybrid captain, wondering absently if there were conditions that affected them in particular. She filed it away to research after launch.

She caught his eye and signaled that she needed to speak with him. When he acknowledged her, she spoke in low tones for his ears and the chief engineer's only. "Captain, I have urgent scientific data for you. Mr. Syntron, Dr. Nasaro-Myth, and I came up with a theory to not only stop the anomaly, but possibly to neutralize it to the point that it can no longer enter our time-space. But we also realized what can happen if the Romulans have come up with this same technique but use it incorrectly. Dr. Nasaro-Myth also went over medical security protocols that I highly recommend you evaluate for implementation on the Lotus. We must speak on the the Romulan threat as soon as possible."

She allowed the image of an exploding cubic parsec of space to be read by the captain to punctuate the urgency of her request.

Gould still had not met with Adams and was in a slightly impatient mood when Jolie appeared, his first thought was that she was going to nag him yet again about the test and was relived that it wasn't about that.

"Lets see here.." he said as he read over her findings. "It seems well thought out enough.. I'm not sure I agree with the overall effective threat from plasma, but it is possible. I'd say its worth considering doctor. You said Mr. Syntron was part of this discussion right? well, I'm sure their captain will relay it to fleet captain Samji for review, I'm afraid I'm not the best one to suggest it." He had a manner of annoyance in his voice, with just a hint of sarcasm. He handed the PADD back her "take this information to our new CSO Sainthill and have him back you up, if Captain Kheren has decided not to pass it on then ill put my name on it."

Jolie nodded. She thought momentarily about the annoyance and sarcasm, mentally reviewing what she'd said to see what had triggered it. There was nothing that she could think of. She filed it away as a data point for the Counselor. "Aye, Sir. I'll discuss it with the CSO, then. If you approve, I can take these medical security protocols to TacSec to discuss implementation. I'll need to get baselines stored for future reference as we get underway. That'll be done in conjunction with all the Counselor assessments to minimize interruptions."

"Vary good doctor, I believe Lt. commander Tomah is on the bridge, Ill have him meet you in sick bay as soon as he's able." with a nod he went back to looking for Adams.

After being dismissed, she turned and left to find Sainthill.
