At exactly 8.28 a beep reminded Lise she had to attend a staff meeting and that she had to hurry if she wanted to make it in time. On the way to the meetingroom she met Isildur. "Any idea what this is about?", he asked. "No, not really. I hear rumours about a politcial mission which concers Romulans and Klingons and trade..But they are only rumours, cause I heard also stories that there is a new alliance forming to oppose the Federation." Lise replied..
"Yeah, all kinds of stories are going around. It would be best if everyone gets to know as soon as possible what is going to happen. People don't like the uncertainty about what the mission will be, how dangerous it is, etc.." Isildur said.
With that, they arrived at the meetingroom, where almost everyone was already present. Both took their seats and waited for the things to happen.

Alex entered the bridge from the turbolift and took a quick look around. They were still at Bellicose, so there was only a skeleton crew manning the stations right now. He walked over to Science 1 and checked it's status. The upgrades were complete and it seemed to be in excellent working condition.
Satisfied, Alex went to the conference room and walked in the door. Many of the senior staff were already there. Alex sat down beside Lise and Isildur and waited for everyone to arrive.

All the senior staff were sitting in the conference room when Captain Weill and Admiral Clark walked in, Commander Majeski was talking to the XO of the Admiral, they were sitting either side of the Captains position, the Admiral gestured to the Captain that he was going to start, Weill sat down and started
Weill: " Thankyou for meeting so punctually, this is Admiral Clark our distinguished guest, he has an important set of information to lay before us, Admiral"
Clark: "Well thankyou Captain, i must emphasise than none of this go any further, as it is top secret, though you may suprised as to why. Firstly we have strange signals from a planet in a system i cant name even now, and it appears that a pre warp civilisation are using an old probe as a power source but unfortuantley it is causing severe damage, that is all i can say at present but please ask some questions if you need to?"
Majeski: " So is there a diplomatic element to this?"
Clark: "yes Commander. it appears that a certain empire might take an interest in the situation, as the probe does have some interesting features, i can say that the empire in question is the Romulan Star Empire, which has taken interest as they want a certain piece of techonology"
Dixon: "But sir this probe is quite old, surly it is obsolete"
Clark: " Yes this is true but some of the technology was later used to build many of the things of today"
The people around the tabel looked around and they realised the severity of the situation, espcially with its strong connection to the Prime directive.
Weill: " I can guess, please correct me if i am wrong sir, but wont an away team have to go down and remove the dangerous part of the rpobe"
Clark: " Thats right Captain but the problem is the probe is in the centre of the settlement"
Weill: " The organisation of the mission is as follows the Admiral is in overall command of the mission but i am reposnible of course for the vessel and you will take your orders from us as usual"

After the briefing, Gus Weill had heard about the recpetion for the Admiral and the Doctor has set everything out. He had changed into his dress uniform like everyone else and when he walked in there was some Shostokovich playing and a Ensign said Captain on Deck, he asked that everybody relax. The Admira a few minutes later came in and Weill walked forward
Weill: "Welcome Admiral, welcome again i mean, as most of you know this is Admiral Jack W Clark and officer of many years standing and espcially in the section in which we serve........... This ship though has a very strong connection to the Admiral, the Admiral commanded her long before i arrived on the scene, i have the honour to be a new Captain and to follow on and continue the great name Raven on here i ask you to raise you glasses to Admiral Clark"
ALL: " Clark"
Clark: " Thankyou Captain, yes i must thankyou all, the Raven has been special to me and it still is, a ship of great honour and a kind heart, if any ship can have a heart, i thankyou for your address and please enjoy yourselves"
The party went well, the Captain and Admiral talked, he moved around with others and spoke to them but the Admiral was far more inqusitive, a talkertive man who was intrigued by every part of the fleet and espcially the crew.

One Team commanded by Cmdr Christina Moraken the other bye Lt cmdr fox the to do some on planet research on the planet history and what the level of there civilianzation Cmdr for the chief science officer write in his report the planet name was Croons and the planet was operating at a Post warp level and was not ready at that point in time to be contacted bye the federation so captain Clark invoke a security one quarantine of the Planet and a class #5 Federation probe was left in orbit of the planet “
Everything was going great the probe was sending back detail information of the planet until a month ago the probe stop sending a signal at this this time Starfleet sent in a service ship to check into the reason why the probe was off line after arriving on station the uss cordon report the probe was no longer in orbit of the planet at that time Starfleet ordered the Cordon out of the area.

After all was said and done all the staff walked back onto the bridge, they took their places, Admiral Clar walked about the bridge and Weill just sat back into his chair.
Clark: " CONN set course for Coons, warp 7"
CONN: " Engageing sir"
Clark: " Would you like to have a drink Captain?"
Weill: " Yes that would be very nice Admiral"
They walked into the turbolkift and stopped at the Admirals quarters, he had set them up differently put a desk and all his things in, looked like a command centre of sorts.
Clark: "What'll you have?"
Weill: " A brandy please"
They sat down
Clark: "Well we are on our way, and last time i was on a mission like this i didnt think i would be an Admiral next time"
Weill: " I can guess Admiral, thoses operational questions are simple, i am curious as to weather there is anything i dont know, and also who is this Captain Dunsil"
Clark: " Well on the latter i cant comment, as i dont know that information on the former well, basically i want you to command the ship, but i the overall mission"
Weill: " understood, i take t you wont be leading away teams, as i would recommend against that"
Clark: " Well i might have to as i am one of the only people that knows anything about it, of course i will have t use some cloak suits but this is not a military mission yet"
Weill: " Of course, i guess we need to stop the Romulans beaming the probe away?"
Clark: "Yes thats a major priority becuase if they get any info, we could be in deep trouble"
Weill: " If this was so important i dont know why they didnt send more than 1 vessel"
Clark: "Well we have to keep a low profile, but also have enough mussel to back ourselves up"
Weill: " Yes sir, thats all, for the moment, i hear you were with Commodore Soank on the last mission, how is she?"
Clark: " Very well i think"
The meal continued and everything finished quite in time.

After his dinner with captain Weil ended Admiral Clark made his way to a late meeting with his Negotiation team in Conference room #1 Lt, Stephens stands outside her new boss office and takes deep breath then ring the doorbell Admiral Clark looks up from the PADD he was reading "Come in."
Lt Stephens straiten her uniform and walks in “ Lt Jessica Stephens reports for duty, sir", she says kind of nervous”
Jack nods and smiles "Ah, Lt, Stephens we've been anticipating your arrival... I trust your journey from your Quarters to here was without incident?" Jessica smiles "well, it was totally boring, but so I could take the chance and read some the coon senior Government officials"
Jack chuckles "I understand." He quickly downloads some files for Lt, Cmdr Burgess into an empty PADD, and then hands it over to her.
Lt, Cmdr Burgess takes the PADD and looks to it Jack nods "Good. That PADD has some basic information you'll need... Location of all the colony's medical facilities, areas for Starfleet housing as well as some above ground residences if that's what you would prefer... also..." nods "I’d like living on firm ground"
Admiral " Doctor Lise and her Medical staff said they will be ready bye the time the Raven Arrive at it destination” Admiral Clark "Good old Lise" Jack nods "That's the officer she was a outstanding ship Navigator when she was aboard the Raven back in the old days.
Admiral Clark “ stand and walk over to the window then turn around people we must be ready when we arrive there will be no room for any mistake the last thing the federation need is for the carddassian Or Romulan to make a deal with the Coons government before we do.

As Admiral Clark handed Cmdr. Burgess the PADD with the details of the colony's buildings his comms badge chirped.
O'Connor >+Tapes+ O'Connor to Lt. Cmdr Burgess
Cmdr. Burgess > Go ahead O'connor
O'Connor > Sir you have incomming sub space message
Cmdr. Burgess > patch it through to this offices
O'Connor > yea sir
at that moment Dantrek faces appeared on the screen of the admiral offices computer.
Cmdr. Burgess > can i help you sir
Dantrek > yes you make cmdr. sinces your my ast. and your onboard the ship a Medal of Honor winner i would like you to inform him.
Cmdr. Burgess > i will sir just send me the details to this PADD ID 5879458.65 and i'll inform them
Dantrek > Data Transfer in progress
Cmdr. Burgess Got it sir openning file now
As Cmdr. Burgess openned the File he saw it was for Admiral Clark he didn't think it would take so long for him to get it.
Cmdr. Burgess > I'll give them the Medal ASAP
Dantrek > thank you Cmdr.
Cmdr. Burgess > Admiral Clark would you please stand as Admiral Clark stood up and walked over to Cmdr. Burgess and said Yes Cmdr.

The Sovereign class vessel was bounding through space and Weill sat in his chair watching the view screen, Commander Majeski was next to him and he and Majeski wondered what this whole thing was about they still felt something was being kept back.
CONN: 2 Sir we are closin on the planet"
Weill: " Admiral Clark to the bridge, All hands YELLOW ALERT"
Majeski: " Yellow alert sir?"
Weill: " We cant be to careful, from what he has said the Romulans would probably be prowling about"
The Admiral walked onto the bridge, he walked round the screen
Clark: "I havnt seen this in a long time, now where to start, scan the planet Mr Dixon"
Dixon: "Aye sir.................... the planet has a stable suface area, mostly arable in the area where the probe, is and the prbe is there, fully operational, but letting out harmful radiation"
Clark: " Ok thankyou, can you scan the planet and take a map so we can prepare an away team, i think we will need to go undercover or at least have 2 undercover, than figure out we can swop something in the middle of a town square for something else, without anyone noticeing"
Weill: " Dixon can you work with Mr Chappell and make a power source that is the same in appearnace as the probe and does everything that does except the radiation and take out all important technology"
Dixon: " Yes sir"
Chappelll: "That should be quite easy, we will need to wear it as if it has been in space a long time"
Weill: " Ok lets get on with it"
Clark: " May i borrow your conference room, i need to study theses drawings, may i take your First Officer to be on the away team"
Weill: " Of course, but i would rather you didnt go"
Clark: "I have to, i am the only one that knows the planet and its customs"
Weill: "ok, i understand but officially note that the decision was reached over my my objections and since you will go will you take your own XO for extra security"

Alex sat at Science 1. Lt. Collaan, the head of the Planetary Science section was manning Science 2 as the Raven approached Coons.
Admiral Clark turned from the viewer and said "I havnt seen this in a long time, now where to start, scan the planet Mr Dixon"
"Aye sir," Dixon replied. "The planet has a stable suface area, mostly arable in the area where the probe, is and the probe is there, fully operational, but letting out harmful radiation. I am sending exact coordinates to Tactical."
"Received" reported the tactical officer.
Alex received his orders to map the location of the probe and start building an exact copy with Lt. Chappell. After receiving his orders, Alex only listened to the conversations on the bridge with half an ear, but what he was hearing caused him to pay more attention. There was obviously some tension between the Admiral and Captain over the way the mission was being handled. It was clear to Alex that the crew of the Raven had not been given all of the available information. Oh, well, he could only work with what he was given, and his first priority was to assemble a probe similar to the one the planet had. Which meant he needed some pictures.
Alex walked over to the helmsman. "Ensign, I am going to have to take some very precise imagery of the surface. Could you do some precision station keeping over the probe coordinates for a few minutes?" The Ensign responded with a crisp "Yes sir."
A few minutes later, Alex had his images and their first two problems. He walked over to report to the Admiral and Captain.
"Yes, Lieutenant?" inquired the Admiral.
"Sir, we have some problems. The inhabitants have placed the probe inside of a large structure. Chappell and I won't be able to make an exact copy of the probe as we don't know what they have done to it. Also, the probes radiation field is strong enough that it will interfere with the transporter if we try to beam it up. In fact, we won't be able to beam anything to within 50 meters of the probe."
Weill looked over at the Clark as the Admiral thought. "That does seem to be a bit of a problem. Do you have any recommendations, Lieutenant?"
Alex thought quickly. He wished his superior officers would stop dropping that question on him all the time. He had better get used to it though. Providing recommendations was part of his job. "Well Admiral. We would only need one good scan with a tricorder would give us all the information we need. One person with a cloak suit could do that. In the meantime, we could just work on a replacement probe. We really only need the scan for the exterior. As for the transporter problem, I think that Josh and I could rig up some pattern enhancers strong enough to overcome the interference."
"Interesting. All right. We'll see how that goes" the Admiral replied. "See to it, Lieutenant."
"Aye sir" Alex said, and returned to his station.
OOC Sorry that I haven't posted much for the past few days. I am back now...

Weill had got the recommendation from the young Lt and he was wondering who to send, or at least who to advise the Admiral to send.
Weill: " Admiral i would suggest sending Alex Dixon to the suface, as he would know what information he needs"
Clark: " Sounds ok, but i dont think one person is a good idea"
Weill: " Agreed, what about sending Mr Burgess to lead the away team"
Clark: " I would have thought you would have wanted your FO to lead the away team"
Weill: " I am sure he understands, i want him to coordinate evrything up here, so he is really ready for the big away team............. Mr Dixon the Admiral and i want you and Commander Burgess to go to get the data"
Dixon: " Yes sir"
Clark: "Mr Burgess, over here please"
Weill: "Ah Mr Burgess, we want you to go to the planet and assist, Mr Dixon with his scans"
Burgess: " Aye sir"

Alex had just sat down at Science 1 when he was summoned back to Captain Weill and the Admiral.
"Mr Dixon the Admiral and i want you and Commander Burgess to go to get the data" Weill ordered. Alex was very surprised to be asked, but responded with what he hoped was a confident "Yes sir."
Then Captain then turned to talk to Commander Burgess and Alex zipped over to talk to Lt. Collaan. Alex placed her in charge of the Science departments in his absence and ordered her to assist Lt. Chappell in his efforts to get a probe capable of doing what was needed on Coons working. The Bajoran woman nodded and whispered "Good luck" as Alex walked over to Commander Burgess.
"Lieutenant" Burgess began "we had best get moving." The two of them boarded a turbolift . "Have you ever used a cloak suit, Lieutenant?"
"Yes sir" Alex replied "I was trained with their use in the Academy, but haven't used one on an actual mission yet."
"Well then, this should be a new experience for you. The only thing that you have to remember is not to break the suit's integrity, or you will be visible. Other than that, just act naturally. What sort of information are you going to need?" Burgess went on.
"I am going to need a tricorder scan of all sides of the probe, along with a scan of the interior to see what modifications the natives might have made, if any. Umm, would it be alright if I went to my quarters? There are some things that I would like to bring along" Alex asked.
"Alright, Lieutenant. Meet me in transporter room 1 in 10 minutes" Burgess ordered.
Alex stepped off of the turbolift and went to his quarters. He quickly grabbed his tricorder and attached the hand phaser and it's hidden holster to his left wrist. Then he picked up a data pad, downloaded all of the available information about the probe he had to examine into it and left for transporter room 1.
Once there, he rapidly donned his cloak suit and waited for Commander Burgess to arrive.

As Lt. Dixon entered transporter room one he walked up to the transporter pad.
Cmdr. Burgess > Ready lt.
Lt. Dixon > yes sir
Cmdr. Burgess > Dixon don't ripe your suit if you do your be visible to the population of the planet.
Lt. Dixon > yes sir
Cdmr. Burgess > lets finish putting on our suits at that moment they disappeared from view of the transporter chief. Cmdr. Burgess then reached up and taped his badge Cmdr. Burgess to Admiral Clark
Admiral Clark > Go ahead Cmdr.
Cmdr. Burgess > Sir where ready to beam down to the surfaces.
Admiral Clark > Good don't get seen Cmdr.
Cmdr. Burgess > Aye Sir, Transporter Chief Transport us 50 meters from the probe.
At that moment they appearred on the surfaces of the planet. and began to walk to the probe which was located in the middle of the town with 2 guards located at the enterances of the building.
Cmdr. Burgess > Alex where going to need to figure out away into the building with out the guards knowing where there.
Lt. Dixon > sir why don't we wait for someone to enter and follow them in.

Alex took a careful look around. He could see the large wooden building that the probe had been placed in. It was about 15 meters high and there were no windows or other ways to gain access besides the guarded doors.
Burgess indicated with hand signals that he wanted to move into an alley way between two stone buildings, and Alex followed him over as quietly as he could. There was nothing but a little refuse in the lane. Alex quickly pulled out his tricorder and took a fast scan of his surroundings, in case some training on the holodeck was necessary. Then he scanned the building. There were 3 Coonians inside. Alex got the Commanders attention and showed him the tricorder. He nodded and gestured at Alex to continue scanning. Alex looked down at the instrument and noted that there were beings in the buildings around him, but nothing that he thought out of the ordinary. Burgess continued to watch the building.
Alex suddenly noted that one of the beings on the tricorder seemed to be heading in their direction, but in a indirect fashion. It seemed to come at them, then would head away. However, it always seemed to get closer. When it was within 30 meters, Alex alerted Burgess. He indicated that Alex should turn off his tricorder and be ready.
Looking behind him, Alex could see slow movement further down the alley. Burgess turned to watch as well. The indistinct figure continued to approach slowly, and finally dropped to its stomach and pulled itself to the end of the alley. Alex and Burgess moved out of the alley and Alex got his first look at a native of Coons.
The being was about 5 and a half feet tall, human shaped and dressed in a black uniform like outfit. It had no hair on it's head and large ears which were about half the size of a Ferengi's. It also had a series of ridges radiating out from the middle of it's face. Not the most beautiful thing that Alex had ever seen. Alex could also see the unmistakeable outline of a weapon in a holster on it's right hip.
The being cautiously stuck it's head out around the wall and observed the building with the probe for a minute or so, then pulled an instrument off it's belt and pointed it at the building. Alex carefully leaned over to look at the readout. He couldn't understand the language, but he understood the symbology. It was monitoring the interior of the probe building as well.
After several minutes, the being appeared to be satisfied with whatever it was doing. It crawled back down the alley, put it's device away and disappeared into the darkness. Alex and Burgess returned to where they were and shared a look. Neither of them knew what to make of what had just happened.
Alex opened his tricorder back up and focussed on the building again. The figures inside had moved since the last time that he had taken a look and one appeared to be moving towards door closest to them.
Alex got Burgess' attention and indicated that one of the doors might be opening. Burgess motioned Alex to get moving and started to head towards the door as Alex followed.
The two of them stealthily made their way to the door, avoided the guard and stood with their backs to the wall next to the door, waiting for it to open.

"Computer, start recording personal log. It is quiet around now, since it is three o'clock in the mornig, but the mission keeps bothering me, and the best thing to do seems like talking to myself, since I really don't know what else to do. I hope I never hear this again, I would feel like an idiot. But I really miss Tom, I haven't seen him in two months now and this no way of keeping a relation working. I know I can trust him.. but I do feel lonely here. But I could work myself into a depression more effectively. I wonder how far the telepatic gifts of Isildur reaches. If he just has to listen, does he hear emotions, of images and words. " Computer, stop recording and delete the latest entry. "To be short, I miss Tom very much, and I feel a bit lonely. Nothing I cant handle anyway. The proplem is the following: there is a probe on a prewarp planet. We need the probe back, as it causes severe damage to the atmosphere and eventually to the health of the people there. And second, the Romulans are after it. If it was just a question of replacing it by something that looks the same, and emits the energy, otherwise they would notice a change. But no, we cant beam it up or down, because of a distortionfield caused by the damned thing. I am going to try and have some sleep, ill feel better in the morning." But she didnt, and decided she might have a talk with Isildur, if she couldn't get the rainy clouds out of her head myself.. Off: What a lot of posting! I have encountered a lot different..and really, the story is just cool

~~ Raven Bridge 01232 Hours ~~
After the Admiral had left the Bridge, Ensign mark Garrett let out a little sigh of relief. He was not use to having flag Admiral looking over his shoulder at every move he made.
Although he had worked with several higher ranking officers while aboard the Star base Avenges Before when he was a young cadet Back then it was very different being on a Star ship. The base was so large, it made working on the Sovereign-class vessel seem like being on a shuttle. The only person he'd gotten to know, at least professionally, was Lt. Skirl... and with her switching to Gamma shift for the foreseeable future, he was going to have to work harder at getting to know the other people he was working with for the next while.
With S'kura gone, Mark was effectively the new Assistant Operations officer and was assign to the Alpha shift. The responsibilities that were now his was something that he didn't take lightly. He planned to do his very best in this position and hoped that his superiors would notice.
He glanced at his master board and watched the Sensor reading of the Croon atmosphere and then he began scanning Areas of the planet for wooded area and Lakes. He tap into the City ' computers system so he could analyze their data in real time, instead of waiting for the download after the mission was completed.
Mark raised an eyebrow as he noticed a fluctuation in One of the Raven cargo bay He initiated a diagnostic, Not surprisingly, the diagnostic didn't turn up anything so he sent a message to the Engineering team to Check out the Cargo bay.
Taking a look at the sensor net, he watched the always-changing scenery of ships in orbit. There was no Space traffic in orbit, of the Planet coming and going. And except for the Raven Mark hope it would stay that way.
Lt, Mark Garrett Asst operations officer USS Raven

As Cmdr. Burgess and Lt. Dixon was awaiting for the door to open on the building to go in the figure they seen earlier was approching them from the south on the tricorders.
Lt. Dixon > Cmdr. the creature is approching us from the south.
Cmdr. Burgess > at that moment the door openned and a guard exitted the building and Cmdr. Burgess and Lt. Dixon quitly entered the Building to see the probe was wired up in the middle of the building with wires running to computers and to consoles around the room. Lt. start scanning the probe before they get back
Lt. Dixon > aye sir what have they done to this thing the reports are saying that they tried to remove some of the parts for other things in the room.
Cmdr. Burgess > Lt. you scan the extior of the probe and i will start on the interior of the probe that way where be done sooner and back to the ship.

Weill walked onto the bridge, he felt quite tired as he had spent a long time doing paperwork and he was due to go off duty but with and away team on the suface. He wanted to get them to report in, so he said to conn
Weill: "whats their location, are they out of the public sight"
O'Connor: " Yes sir"
Weill: "Can you put me through to Commander Burgess"
O'Connor: " No sir, we have lost our link, come to that we have lost all links, i cant see where they are"
Clark: "Thats suspicious, find out what has happened"
Weill: " Yellow alert, beam them off the planet"
Transporters Chief: " Can't get a lock sir"
Weill: " Keep trying"
O'Connor: "Sir, Romulan warbird decloaking"
Majeski: " ALL HANDS RED ALERT"
Clark: "Keep trying to beam them off the suface, but i am guessing they will continue with their job"
Weill: " Hail the Romualn vessel"
O'Connor: "Channel open"
Weill: " This is Captain Gus Weill of the Federation Starship, USS Raven, can we help you?"
There was a gap, nothing happened the bridge went quiet than suddeneley a face appeared on the bridge, a slightly green Romula., a wormen, looking very domineering, very stern
Rhian: " I am Commander Rian of the Imperia Romulan vessel, Telex, the Romulan star empire are taking interest in this system for historcal research, and to increase the size of the empire"
Weill: " Oh the Empire wants to expand, militarily, well i am sure we can all work well here, but i need not remind you that this is Federation territory and the terms of the treaty mean that you must go through a Federation checkpoint to enter this"
Rhian: "Of course not, we want to help smaller civilisations, and we missed the checkpoint, we... couldnt find it"
Weill: "We will be happy to help you later on and accomodate you in the system but would you mind returning to a checkpoint and than you can come back"
Rhian: " We would be happe to"
The screen closed and the bridge breathed out, the Romulan vessel turned and warped out
Clark: " Wont be long before they are back"
Weill: "Indeed, good move sir staying out of the way, a senior Admiral on the bridge would create interest"
Clark: " Yes indeed, can we communicate with thoses on th suface"
O'Connor: "They are hailing"
Clark: "Good put them through"
Burgess: " We have got the data, what been happening up there................"
O'Connor: "lost it again, the Romulans must have a relay somewhere"
Weill: " yes would guess they have been here a long while, just been waiting for us to sweep in"
Clark: "We have no idea what is happening on the planet and we cant contact them, and up ehree we have a military situation on our hands"
Weill: " what about setting up and out post under cover, in the mountains on the planet"
Clark: "you mean all the things we would need so we can at least be getting ready while the romulans are messing about"
Weill: " Yes you could take a senior engineer, i would want Majeksi to head this team and than a few engineers and security, as long as they are some distance from the colony, they culd get on with their work without hinderence"
Clark: " I would want to go, i know the planet and its work"
Weill: "Sir i would not be happy, we would have you, my FO, your XO, my CScO and a couple of engineers, i would ask you take some security to keep you safe if you must go"
Clark: "I would Mr Chappell, we will need to block the signals so that the romulans dont know we are there and Mr O'Connor, you must stay here to run be at tactical but can you get me some good security people"
O'Connor: " Yes sir i will and some weapons, shall i get the engineering department to get all the tools put on the planet?"
Clark: "Yes please, i will need things for all possible contingencys, we will not have a cloaked operation so make it far enough away from the settlement and than we could use a site to site to get closer"
Weill: " Mr Majeksi, can you get the details for the mission ready, i will need to chat with you in my ready room in a mnute"
Majeski: "yes sir"
The Admiral walked out with O'Connor and they went down int he turbolift and Weill and Majeski went into the ready room, Weill turned on his heals to stop and talk
Weill: " Chris, this is your job now, dont let the Admiral go over the line, i give you my full support to stop him going into danger, that is what the security people and you are there for"
Majeski: "I understand sir, hope all goes well up here, thoses Romulans wont back down easily"

Weill has spoken to the Commander and got the teams ready, he than walked down to the transporter roo and there was the Admiral dresed in a ump suit instead of his normal unifom, it was like the normal gret but with Admirals patches and a god stripe along the divide along the chest where the grey was divided from black.
Clark: "Been a while since i went on something like this, and got into one of theses uniforms, i had forgotten how comfotable they were"
Weill: " Bridge, can we transport down now"
Bridge: "should be able to, we just need to go during the right period"
Clark: "Ok i am ready, i wont get into mischief Captain"
The stpped onto the padds with their wepons at the ready and everything at hand and the cargo bay was going to transport the necessary thing inlduing a mini cloak for the suverlince base. Weill nodded at Majeksi and he nodde back, Weill didnt want an Admirals death on his hands, especially Clarks.
He saw the officers dissapear and he than breathed out and and walked out of the transorter room, he now had the reponsibility of the Romulans, something he was worried about as they would be very cunning.
He walkeda round to the CMOs office, he walked in to find Doctor Lise sitting at her desk
Lise: " Ah Captain, what can i do for you"
Weill: "Well i might have to swop offices this one is nice"
The Doctor smiled and sat back a bit and Weill sat down
Weill: "I know that your primary job is as a Docotr, but we have limited experinced officers and i need an FO to get us ready from combat, i was wondering if you might be able to take the temp position of FO while Majeski is on the planet, obvioueley you can decline, "
Lise: "I will be up soon, sir but if the casualties mount i will need to help my other Doctors"
Weill: "of course, Commander"
Weill than walked up to the bridge and was faced by Mr O'Connor

Alex looked up as he heard Commander Burgess' voice coming over the comm. "Lieutenant, can you contact the Raven?"
"I don't know sir, I'll check" Alex tried to contact the Raven with no success. "Sorry sir, I can't get through either. Perhaps there is some interference from the probe."
"Perhaps. Continue with the exterior scans while I access the probe" Burgess ordered.
Nodding, Alex activated his tricorder and panned it around the room, and immediately received a warning. "Commander, don't move!" Alex barked.
Burgess froze and looked over at Dixon. "Sorry sir, but there is an active security system in front of you, consisting of an active beam of light. If you cross it, it might sound an alarm." Burgess pulled out his tricorder and scanned the area before him. "Hmm. Interesting. There are a few in the room too, not just this one. I should just be able to avoid it though." Burgess bent over and moved underneath the beam and was close enough to access the probe. Alex turned back to his work and carefully scanned the exterior of the probe. The Coonians had attached a series of cables to the probe and it's power source, probably to transmit the energy to the surrounding town.
Alex was done and looked over at Burgess. He had removed a hatch and was examining the interior of the probe. "No wonder the thing is leaking radiation. When they hooked up the transmission lines, they must have ruptured the power plant casing. I'm surprised it didn't explode." Burgess scanned the interior of the probe and then resealed the hatch. The two of them turned and carefully left the room the probe was in and made their way to the door that they had come in by.
"Sir, why do you think they have security around the probe?" Alex asked.
"No idea, Lieutenant. Judging by the fact that this building is under surveillance, I would say that someone feels that the probe is under threat" Burgess replied.
Alex thought about that as they made their to the door. "So, how are we going to get through this time? Wait again?"
"Not this time, Lieutenant. Stand up against the wall." Alex complied and Burgess moved a few steps down the hall and cautiously scraped his hand against it, making a soft scratching noise. After about a minute, Alex heard the door rattle and Burgess stopped. The door opened and the Coonsian guarding it cautiously entered and walked down the corridor, weapon drawn. Burgess gestured for Alex to leave, and then followed as soon as the guard passed.
Once they were back into the alleyway, Burgess said "The most common trait among sentient species is curiousity, Lieutenant." Alex shook his head a little. He would have to remember that one.
Alex then pulled out his tricorder. "We're still inside the radiation field of the probe. We have to go another 30 meters or so. Uhh, sir. You might want to take a look at this." Burgess leaned over to glance over Alex's shoulder and inhaled sharply. There were over 30 armed Coonsians surrounding the probe building, including several that were moving up the alley they were standing in. There wouldn't be enough room for everyone in the alley, and the best cloak in the world wouldn't protect Alex and Burgess if one of the Coonsians bumped into them.
The two Federation officers moved out of the alley. Burgess had pulled out his tricorder as well. "We have to find a way to get out of here."
"Every exit from the area is filled with them, sir. There doesn't seem to be a way out right now." Just then, the two guards who had been standing quickly moved inside the building and closed the doors. Alarms started to sound and lights came on in the city. Far away, the sound of some kind of airborne vehicle approached and the group of Coonians surrounding the probe building started to move away.
Alex and Burgess took the opportunity and moved to a safe distance from the probe. Once out of it's distortion field, the two were immediately beamed to the Raven.
Alex sighed with relief as the materialized on the pad and stepped out of the chamber. Dr. Lise was standing there with a hypospray. "Arms, please" she ordered. Burgess and Alex extended the requested appendages and each received a shot. "It's hironolyn. You will need another shot in about 4 hours to counteract the radiation that you've been exposed to."
"Thank you doctor" the two of them said simultaneously as they removed their cloak suits.
Burgess turned to Alex and said "We should report to the Admiral right now. Things are unstable on the planet and he should know immediately."
The two of them left Transporter Room 1 and made their way to the bridge.
