The Briefing - Part Three

Posted on Sun Feb 23rd, 2020 @ 9:17pm by Fleet Captain Torilla Yamaguchi

Mission: Mission 5: Skyfall
Location: Various Locations - Starbase 400
Timeline: 0920Hrs - January 1st, 2389

She wasn't sure of what upset her more, the fact she had no idea of what was going on or the fact that her husband was almost certain to be assigned to this assignment alongside her and also this was not how she saw her first command turning out, with an assignment of such significance.

Then it hit her, that she would be going alongside Admiral Bremer and not someone with more senior of a rank, she was a rookie and yet, she felt she had to prove something, that she was worthy and able to handle the big chair. 'This is what you wanted, wasn't it?' her inner voice said. 'Well, guess what!, you're in the middle of it so suck it up!' as she sighed softly.

Mike remained sitting, looking at each person one at a time before speaking. “I realize some of you have been left out of the loop on this and other recent …events.” He looked at Pike and Yamaguchi, his Intel Chief and Strategic Operations Chief respectively, then added, “This mission will require the upmost professionalism from each of you and everyone within the fleet. It will only take one vessel, one Captain making a wrong decision to escalate this to a Galactic War between the Federation Alliance and the Typhon Pact. We don’t want that to happen.”

Mike paused one more time, looking at everyone again, then added, “Yamaguchi, you’ll have your Command Staff for the Venator within the hour. General Jones, while you’re on a diplomatic mission, I am sending a small Marine Squad with you for VIP and meeting security. Admiral T’Lar, station and sector defense is yours. I don’t expect any incursions, but I want to play it safe. Assist Admiral Sevlek as needed.”

Deela nodded, "Understood." She wasn't crazy about who she would be assisting but orders were orders.

“Any other questions?”

Lee sat there and shook his head. He didn't know General G'Tar but hope he would be a good officer.

"No questions, sir." Anandra responded as she processed the scope of the operation that lay in store. There would be an awful lot of ships out there in a volatile situation. She knew it would take some delicate diplomacy to avoid certain catastrophe, and she wondered if the parties filling those diplomatic roles felt the palpable tension that she did.

Yamaguchi felt her questions had been answered but she was apprehensive about the upcoming mission due to her lack of command experience, however she had been assured she would have a good senior staff among her crew which was fine with her. Last thing she wanted was an Exec who would get in her face about everything.

She was sure she would have more questions however once she read her orders and other various pieces of information once she got them.

Andy looked at T'Lar, Slevek and Bremer... They all knew what his position meant in the negotiations, as chief diplomat officer and Starfleet Representative on the negotiations... and if the Typhoon Pact decide to fight its way through the Sutherland and other vessels would stand to the test

Mike waited a moment, then dismissed the group. As everyone left, he picked up a PADD and leaned back in his chair as he started making a ship/crew assignment. A few minutes later, he sent the information out to everyone.
