(Walker was sitting at his desk bored out of his mind. He hated not having anything to do. As he waited for the next mission assignment he fiddled with some of the decor on his desk)
Computer: Incoming Message.
Walker: On Screen Computer.
(Admiral Magellan appears on screen)
Magellan: Greetings Commodore Walker.
Walker: Admiral Magellan, do you have our next assignment?
Magellan: I do. Some of our science ships recently did some scans on Yevella. We got some very strange readings. The science ships unfortunately did not have the time to investigate. The reason the ships did do some scans is because the last ship that investigated the situation on the planet disappeared. We found the ship.. unfortunately the crew was not in as good shape as the ship itself. I want you to go over there and check it out. But be cautious. You'll probably need to go down to the planet to take conclusive scans.
Walker: Understood Admiral.
(As the screen faded off Walker was glad to finally be leaving the base with a mission but at the same time it was a very strange situation. Walker dropped his padd onto his desk and returned to the bridge. The newly named acting xo of the victory Samantha Parker moved over to the first officer chair in her new red uniform)
Walker: Spedmo, please set course for Yevella.
(As usual Walker handed out a padd to his senior staff members detailing them on the mission. Some COs didn't do that but Walker felt its best that his senior staff know the details to prepare themselves)

Samantha had just exited the sonic shower and moved over to the table to get dressed into her uniform. She hesitated a second looking down at her newly replicated red tunic that lay on the table, she was so use to wearing yellow tops. She dressed quickly into her uniform and stood in front of the mirror, seeing how the new uniform looked on her. She felt strange wearing the red uniform, but she knew she would get use to it. As she straightened her uniform she noticed there was something missing, her rank pips. They were still on her old yellow tunic, she transfer the pips and again stared back into mirror. That looks better she though. She headed out of her quarters towards the bridge, she was slight nervous about the position and began to think back to first day as chief engineer. She had also been nervous about the new position, but had adapted and excelled in the position and now she was a first officer. She entered the bridge, walked over to the centre of the bridge and sat in the centre chair. As she sat down she felt a rush of excitement that seemed to mask her uneasiness and nerves about her new position for a second. The chair seemed more comfortable than when she had been left in charge of the bridge before, maybe because she felt like she belonged in this chair rather than in engineering. The ready room doors slid open and Captain Walker came onto the bridge. Samantha moved over into the first officerβs chair. Walker: Spedmo, please set course for Yevella. βCourse set,β Speedo responded. βEngage,β Walker ordered. Walker handed a PAD to her and one to all the other senior officers on the bridge. Sam read though the report that had been given to her. She stood up and strolled over to Speedo who was currently sat in the helmβs position. βEstimated time to arrival?β she asked. β7 hours, 12 minutes, 7 seconds,β Speedo answered. Samantha tapped her commbadge. =/\= Cmdr Parker to all senior officers, report for a briefing at 15:00 about the current mission =/\= She announced over the comm. Captain Walker handed over the remaining PADs to an ensign to deliver to rest of the senior staff who weren't currently on the bridge and returned to his ready room. Samantha again took her seat at the centre of the bridge.

Jones had been in sickbay for the last few hours talking to Majeski whilst they checked all the equipment for any wear and tear. Overall sickbay was in a good state of affairs they had a good patient turnover and his staffs were experienced and ready for most eventualities.
Jones had even had time to sort out himself after his time in prison on the last mission it hadnβt taken long but it was difficult to find the time to get it done. A flustered ensign walked in and headed for Jones.
"Captains compliments doctor but he has sent details of our new assignment."
"Thank you ensign."
Jones looked at the padd and quickly read the details.
"Here you go Majeski take a look, Looks like a milk run but I am sure that we will find some danger."
"I should think so; letβs hope we donβt end up like the other ship." Majeski replied returning the padd.
Jones entered his office and placed the padd on his desk Jones checked the time and noticed it was nearly time for the briefing. He straightened his uniform and set off for the briefing room. Jones wondered who would be the new CEO people had said Nal would be filling in but Jones but no faith in that and Nal had not mentioned it since his last check-up on his head.
What Jones did know is that they now had an excellent XO and hoped she wouldnβt be too much of a hardass.
Out.
Off: Congrats Sam you deserve it.
Also from the 16th to the 22nd I will be away sailing.
and then on the 25th I will be moving to uni so it might take a couple of days to get set up but i should be posting by the 27. I will endevour to post between the 22nd and 25th to a good standard but i wil be doing a lot of packing.

Steve sat in his quarters sipping a nice cup of tea. Steve spent alot of time in his quarters, since returning to the Victory he had found it hard to settle in, but he wasn't surprised at that as most of his friends had moved on since he was there. =^= Cmdr Parker to all senior officers, report for a briefing at 15:00 about the current mission =^= It took him a moment to remember that there was a new first officer but was glad it was someone he knew and someone that knew the ship and its crew. The buzzer of his door went off and Steve looked up. "Enter" "Sir, I have a pad from the Commodore with details on our upcoming mission" "Thanks" Steve said as the young man left the room
After reading the pad Steve was happy with the new mission, for once Steve didn't know anything or had heard anything from his time in Starfleet Intel. This was going to be a real adventure, this is what he joined Starfleet to do all of them years ago, to explore unknown space.

Samantha had spent the entire shift on the bridge monitoring the crew and deal with minor problems that had occurred. Sam sat in the command chair nervously counting down the minutes until the briefing. Sheβd read though all the status reports from the different department and had also checked though the duty roaster. This would be her first briefing in her new position.
She stood up about 10 minutes before the briefing was about to start and signalled to one of the Lieutenants around the bridge to take command. Sam entered the briefing room and took one of the chairs at the top of the table leaving the end chair for the captain. She wanted to re-review the data before the rest of the senior staff arrived.
She scanned though the data, but entered up staring out of the window at the star as they fly by at such speeds and her mind wandered back to when she was a child. Her and her brother where sat around listening to their grandmotherβs story of her first experiences of being a first officer. At the time she was more interested in the action and the mission. But now she though back she could identify with the feelings she had described.
Her thoughts were interrupted as the door to the briefing room slid open and she turned to see who it was.

OFF: I owe you guys about a million apologies right now for my lack of posting. Things have been very stressful lately and I'll try my best to get a post up soon. Until I can be as active as I'd like I ask Commander Parker to take charge of this mission until my return. Sorry again for this everyone, I really need to devote more time to the Victory and I'm going to try to from here on out.

As Samantha turned around all of the senior officers walked through the door, they all took there seats and waited for Walker to enter. "So what's this mission about?" Dr Jones asked. "I think we should wait for the Commodore before we start" Sam answered. Ten minutes had pasted and there was no sign of the Commodore, then fifteen. =^=Samantha to Walker=^= there was no response. Speedo then tried to raise the Commodore and again there was nothing. =^=Computer locate Commodore Walker=^= =^=Commodore Walker is in his quarters=^= Both Samantha and Steve looked puzzled, why wouldn't he respond unless.... They both looked at each other and stood up. They both walked quickly for the door. "Jimmy, with us." The three of them walked quickly to Walkers quarters and opened the door. There was no sign of the Commodore. "Steve take a look in the bedroom" Steve walked into the bedroom but didn't like what he saw, he saw walker in bed, no moving and taking short sharp breaths. "Doctor, Commander quickly" Both of them ran into the bedroom.

OFF: Sorry as good as your post was Steve it looks like we can't really take that path right now. I don't know where Samantha Parker is so I'll have to do my best to stay active right now.
[In the Briefing Room]
(Walker entered a filled briefing room with all of his senior officers sitting around the table)
Walker: I'd like to start by welcoming back Commander Gypsy. It is good to have you back on the Victory. And also to our newest crew member Chief Engineer Nephi Jacobson.
Walker: I trust you've all gotten the newest mission details?
(Walker looked around the room and everyone seemed to have read it)
Walker: We've been asked to go investigate Yevella.
(Walker pressed a button on the display screen at the end of the table. An interior picture of the science ship called the Ladef popped up on the screen. Dead bodies lay in the hallway with quite a mess around them.)
Walker: That is what happened to the last ship that had the misfortune of investigating the planet.
(Some of the senior staff looked away in disgust)
Walker: It is quite a graphic scene... But not all of the details of this mission are in that report. We have also been asked to recover Starfleet technology left on the surface from the last landing party. We can't risk leaving it there for others to just take. There will be two away teams when we arrive.
(Walker pressed another button on the display screen and a list appeared. It read:) ________________ Team A:
Walker Steve Gypsy
Team B:
Jimmy Jones Nephi Jacobson _________________
Walker: Team A will be investigating the surface, we will be taking scans of our area and also taking a peak around. Team B will be recovering the medical equiptment and taking scans of your immediate area. We will be on opposite sides of the planet. Commander Parker, Lieutenant Fredmo, and Lieutenant Majeski. You will stay here and make sure everything goes smoothly on the surface and so we have competent back-up. Whats our current time to arrival Spedmo? Is that understood everyone?

Jimmy smiled at jacobson, it was always a big step on a new ship to go on an away mission, but he was looking steady. Jones nodded as the commodore asked if eveyone was clear, it sounded easy enough and jones didnt see the need to bring any of his staff he simply sent a message asking them to sort out a small pack with bits and bobs for the mission. jones like everyone else felt wary of the dangers that cold await them in space but this crew had come through many scrapes and he felt confident enough to deal with anything. out. Off: Welcome aboard nephi Nice to be back guys

(OFF: Actually, I'm a guy. But don't worry about the mistake, as Nephi is not an easy name to determine gender on)
Nephi looked around the room as the Commodore introduced the mission. The experience of the Officers in the room made Nephi feel like a kid.
Walker brought up the image of the ship. Nephi winced as he looked at the horrific scene. When the work details were described, Nephi looked over at Dr. Jones. He looked collected and confident.
When the Briefing was over, Jones smiled at Nephi then nodded to the Commodore. Nephi nodded as well. The mission sounded simple enough.

=/\= Jones to Jacobson, we've arrived at Yevella. Report to Transporter room 2. =/\=
Nephi: =/\= On my way =/\=
Nephi left his quarters. He had gotten permission to unpack while they traversed the distance to Yevella, as he had basically walked into the Briefing upon arrival.
He packed a case with isolinear tags. They would helpful in beaming back equipment, as the transporter could just beam back activated signals. He headed to the Transporter room.
Jones was already there waiting for him. He was standing at the foot of the transporter pad.
Jones: Ready?
Nephi: Yes, sir.
They stepped onto the transporter pad.
Jones: You ready to get warm?
Nephi: Huh?
Jones: You didn't read about the planet?
Nephi: No, why?
Jones: Oh dear. Oh well, energize.
As soon as they materialized on the surface, Nephi knew what he meant. It was a desert, and it was at least 40 degrees celsius here.
Nephi: I prefer much cooler, but oh well.
Nephi pulled a tricorder and scanned for the missing equipment.
Nephi: The first piece of equipment is 200 meter East-Southeast of our present location
Jones: Lets go then.
They headed off in that direction.

Jones and Nephi had collected the first few pieces of equipment and it was getting hot.
"Next time we bring a suttle, i just love that climate control." Jones said, then took a big gulp from a water pack.
"Sounds a whole lot better, i wonder how the other team is doing."
"Well they are on the ther side ofthe planet so it ks going to be bloody cold for them. so theres an icentive for us to be done by nightfall."
Jones had done desert training but that had been a long time ago and every time he had been in an enviroment like this since he had been fully kitted out with dune buggies and all sorts of pieces of gear. But those times he hadnt had the extra security of a starship in orbit and he thanked his lucky stars come a sandstorm or other event he could be out of there is a second.
Jones saw a glint in a area of dunes to his left. He turned his back on it and faced nephi.
"Nephi do not look beyond me keep eye contact," Nephi stared at the doctor looking confused, "Tkae a scan of the dunes behind me, keep your eyes on your tricorder dont look over,i think we are being watched and i dont want to let them know we see."
"Scan complete sir"
"Call me jones and show it to me!"
Jones looked down, whoever it was,was just out of range of conclusve results, they just came up as lifesigns. Jones thought it could be survivers from the ship, or more likely the purpertrators of the attack. Jones realized that Jacobson was staring at him while he thought and felt sorry, his firstmission and he had given him a scare.
"Right we will continue, stay alert, lets complete or task at hand then when we report in that its complete we will inform the CO that we are being watched."
"Aye sir, Jones, sorry"
Jones continued walking to the next piece of equipment.

Walker: Team A, to the transporter room immediately.
(Team A began filing into Transporter Room 1 as Walker prepped himself for the mission at hand. A few minutes later everyone had arrived at the transporter room)
Walker: I trust you have all your gear together.
(The officers nodded in unison)
Walker: Alright lets go.
(Walker, Gypsy, and Steve stepped on the transporter pad)
Transporter Chief: Energizing.
(Team A arrived at the planet's surface. It was dark out and it was chilly)
Walker: Phew almost as cold as Boston back on Earth. Alright lets get these scans started, lets move out.
(The officers seperated but didn't move out of visual distance from eachother)

Nephi was already slightly nervous about this mission to begin with. The fact that they were being watched seemed to make matters worse.
They walked towards the piece of equipment they were tracking.
Nephi: So tell me Jones, what do you think of this environment? I come from a cold region of Earth so this environment doesn't suit me very well. My body stature is adapted specifically for cold weather.
Nephi saw a glint in the sand. They went up to it, and Nephi crouched and scanned it.
Nephi: A protein-sequencer, it would appear.
Nephi placed a isolinear tag and it got beamed out. He stood and looked at Jones.
Nephi: Next.

Jones felt for jacobson he remembered being an acting ensign the nervousness and need to prove your capabillities, but Jones had faith in him as he had passed through the same training procedures as everyone had and had proved himself capable, but jones was not one for small talk when he felt there was trouble brewing. Jones had his tricorder out and was keeping an eye on the lifesigns. they were professionals as they were always out of scanning range. Jones was trying to find a way to boost the range. Nephi was already slightly nervous about this mission to begin with. The fact that they were being watched seemed to make matters worse. They walked towards the piece of equipment they were tracking. Nephi: So tell me Jones, what do you think of this environment? I come from a cold region of Earth so this environment doesn't suit me very well. My body stature is adapted specifically for cold weather. Nephi saw a glint in the sand. They went up to it, and Nephi crouched and scanned it. Nephi: A protein-sequencer, it would appear. Nephi placed a isolinear tag and it got beamed out. He stood and looked at Jones. Nephi: Next. "This way" Jones said and gestured with a flick of his head. Nephi rose and followed. "I have seen many enviroments during my career in starfleet, in the various jobs i have done, i find this climate difficult, i prefer a ship in space anyday. But as i mentioned the temprateure will drop due to lack of cloud cover." Nephi nodded but looked a little amused at his statement. A large klingon who was a doctor and was explianing a weather system. "I studied metorology for a while during a mission on a planet where the weather was erratic at best. I found it wise to understand the systems." Jones added when he saw nephi's face. "We could see the old vic here at night though probabl..." Jones paused and tapped the buttons on his tricorder. "What it is doctor." "Well we are getting are grid refrences for the eqipment from the vics improved scanners and downloading it to the tricorder so we know what dierection to go." "Yes a standard practice." "Well if we use this we could get improved readings and catch the people watching us and find out just who the hell they are." "I will ask the victory now" Nephi replied "Wait they might have a bead on our comms and if we scramble them they will know we see them, and this could provoke the situation and there is only two of us, you are and engineer could you do it from here." "I could try." Nephi took jones tricorder from him and began making adjustments, to anyone it might look as if they had sand in it. But jones could see nephi deftly changeing and adjusting to improve it. "there we go this should work" Jones took the improed tricorder that had hacked into the ships sensors. "I just hope the vic dont try and stop the piggyback on the sensors." Jones stared in disbelief at the readings that faced him. "Here you go nephi take a look at the lifesigns of our friends." Nephi took the tricorder. "But why would they sir?" The formality of rank back under the circumstances. "I think we should contact the victory, and the commodore, he might not see them as easy as we can he wont have the luck of a reflection of there equipment at night." "Agreed!" Nephi replied. out.

As soon as the transporter had finished it's work and they successfully arrived on the planet Gypsy said to Walker:
<Gypsy>"I'm going to make a start over this way. {Pointing south} Looks like there are some abandoned buildings. For now I'll stay out of them and scan the exterior and surroundings.
<Walker> "OK. We'll fan out North and East. Everyone, stay in line of sight until we have some idea what we're dealing with here."
Wandering over towards the buildings Gypsy could find nothing strange on his tricorder but as he got within spitting distance he started to get radiation readings above background normal. Stopping for a look back at Walker and Steve he noticed Walker was starting to look confusedly at his tricorder as well.

*Darn* she though another trip to engineering again to get it fixed
she coudn't find the engineers mate who made the body the woman was killed on a small mishap in enineering a month ago
She peered upwards only to realize that she was alone in sickbay
"Hello" she called her voice ecoed in the empty sickbay
"Computer" she sighed "Activate the EMH program" *Better than being alone* she thought
"Please state the nature of the medical emergency" The hologram said
slamming a tricorder in it's chest she said "Here make your self usful and keep me complany"
"But this isn't part of my programming" It said
"Tough" linnis said

Jones: =/\= We are, sir =/\=
Walker: =/\= What do you make of them, Ensign Jacobson? =/\=
Nephi: =/\= I'm not sure, sir. According to my tricorder they're pretty much human, but I'm surprised to find humans out here =/\=
Walker: =/\= Do you think the tricorders are malfunctioning? =/\=
Nephi: =/\= Mine certainly isnt, from what I can tell. So I would say these lifesigns are valid =/\=

Walker: =^=Keep an eye out Mr. Jacobson, Walker out.=^=
(Walker headed towards a couple of abandoned buildings. The cement holding the building together was chipped and the building looked very old. Walker continued to approach it with his tricorder in hand. He checked out the interior of the building. Inside was what looked like a starfleet communicator lying on top of a torn piece of uniform. Walker scanned it and got a reading of blood on it. He continued looking around the dark building. As he was walking he began to sweat and got a splitting headache. Walker grasped at his head. As he continued on he found a phaser on the ground that looked like it had been lying there for a while. After he was done investigating he had also recovered a small blade on the ground covered in traces of blood. On a wall Walker was the word Zandif painted in dryed blood on the wall. When Walker left the area and met with Gypsy and Steve. Walker now felt a lot worse. He had sweat running down his face and his face was pale as a ghost)
Walker: What did you find?
Gypsy: We recovered some very strange readings of radiation.
Walker: I did as well.
Gypsy: Commodore, are you alright?
Walker: I'm fine.
(As Walker was talking to Gypsy Steve began scanning Walker)
Walker: What the hell are you doing with that tricorder.
(Gypsy and Steve looked at Walker)
Walker: I apologize Commander, nothing a little coffee won't cure.
(Walker grinned)
Walker: Alright do you have anything more to report?

Jones struggled against his bonds. It had all happened so quickly and the captain did not know what he was facing.
Thankfully Nephi and Jones were both uninjured but they were well and truly stuck. They appeared to be in some sort of underground cave. It was much cooler down there but Jones was thirsty. Jones gave another thrust against the cord holding him. Nephi was rolling back and fore trying to get out, his eyes showed a mixture of fear and anger at his imprisonment. Jones felt the same.
Jones thought back to how quickly it had happened.
*****Previously*****
"Jones, the lifesigns are moving this way."
"Letβs get the last bit of gear and get out of here."
Jones and Nephi ran to the last piece of equipment. As they approached a blinding flash engulfed them.
*******************
And that was all he could remember.
He had awoken to here them using something to imitate there voices to inform the captain they had found a few humans.
It seemed Jones and Nephi were in danger. Nobody knew they were missing and he didnβt see any reason for there captors to keep them alive.
Jones felt guilty he should have been more cautious and now Nephi was facing death. Jones had been in these places before but there was always hope of rescue. This time it didnβt seem that was possible. And now the ship itself could be in danger.
Jones rolled over and sighed. He was tied fast.

Nephi wasnt sure how, but apparently their captors knew something about Starfleet uniforms and their meanings. He had apparently been recognized as an Engineer, for he was tied more firmly. He could only move a few feet from the pole he was tied to.
He examined his bonds. They were very strong, and thus resistant to wear. He heard the Captains voice a little ways off.
Walker: =/\= Ensign, whats your status on collecting the medical equipment? =/\=
Nephi's Imitation: =/\= We're almost finished Captain. We're just about ready return to the ship =/\=
Walker: =/\= What condition is it in?
Nephi's Imitation: =/\= A little picked at by the inhabitants, but its fine. We came close to the inhabitants, but they kept their distance =/\=
They had somehow analyze their voices somehow and were using a computer to synthesize Nephi's voice.
Nephi: Don't listen to him Captain! We've been-
Nephi was cut off by a guard hitting across the jaw with the butt of a weapon.
