Ground Operationation

Posted on Sun Jul 28th, 2013 @ 2:07pm by Captain Liarra Von & Lieutenant Commander Sean O'Connell & Major Alexandria Somers

Mission: Reindeer Games
Location: Garus IV

- Orbit of Garus IV -

Sometime after her adviser position on the bridge Naomi along with her team and some Fleet Officers looked down at the facility on the planet as the prepared to beam down to the surface.

"Lets go, you coming Commander? she asked Sean.

"Aye, I will."

With that the team were transported down to the facility.

- Garus IV Facility - Beam in site -

Sean stepped off the platform and smile appeared on his face as he stepped towards the facility administrator.

"Commander Livingstone I presume, Sean O'Connell, Starfleet Security and head of this sector till the admiral takes post." Sean said.

Livingstone gave a half-hearted smile. "Welcome to the Garus outpost. I wasn't aware that we were expecting any visitors."

"Oh I am here just to check with all the stations in the admiral's sector on security details and see that everything is in working order. I am also here on orders of Captain Gunning to check with the science staff and see if they have any requests. Captain Griffiths is here to check on the marine detachment." Sean told the lied in an easy manner.

"I'm afraid that Captain Griffiths has wasted her time. This is primarily a research outpost. We don't have a marine detachment. I hope that's not the only reason you've come."

"Oh, yes we also have a parcel for a doctor..... what was his name again, Captain Griffiths?" Sean looked at the marine and smiled, this was the facade he had chosen and he was playing his role. "I have 300 security officers under my command and I am really bad with names."

Looking at him with the briefest of hesitations "Doctor Le Beau I think it was, well that is the name I was given, have no idea if there is one here, after all Fleet likes to yank the chains of the Marines" She said with a smile "but I think that's his name" She said pulling out a PADD to confirm "Yes, Le Beau" She said looking up first at the Administrator then to O'Connell and gave him a perceptible nod to continue.

"Aye, Doctor Le Beau. We need a signature from him as well. I sometimes wonder how we manage with all this red tape. I'll have a word with your Chief of security, must be an ensign or a warrant officer. Just send the marines toward Doctor Le Beau." Sean nodded to Griffiths. "Might scare the heck out of the good doctor." Sean smiled.

Livingston nodded slowly. He was clearly trying to digest the sudden appearance of the officers. "I'm sure I can arrange a meeting. This does seem a little odd, so please don't be offended if I have one of my security officers escort you, Captain."

"We fully understand Mr. Livingston" Griffiths said sharing a look with O'Connell

Sean nodded to Grifiths and looked at Livingstone, "Now your security reports, security details etc. I would like to be briefed on your current situation, doctor. Any supply request, crew transfers, disciplinary actions? in other words what can I do for you, doctor? Just wondering do you have a good cook, been eating replicated junk for a fortnight and I would love a good steak. Even a real boiled egg would be fantastic."

Livingston nodded. "Of course, Commander. If you'll come with me, I'll see to it that you are taken care of."

a few minutes later.

O'Connell smiled as the alarm klaxons went off. He was where he wanted to be. He had done the tour and was now looking over security reports having taken over the small base security operations.

"That seems to be odd, Commander, I have no drills planned it must be a glitch,sir" Ensign Parker said the Chief of security officer of the base.

"Not a glitch, something close to a training exercise, son. Just lower the base shields now and open a comm link to the Carthage. I need to speak to my CO." Sean smiled as he walked towards the nearest security console.

"Griffiths the shields are down, you can beam Le Beau to the Carthage." He said and smiled as Parker started to realize he had aided in the kidnapping.

"Lower the phaser Ensign Parker, this is an exercise." Sean had quickly moved to Parker and knocked the man out. He tapped his combadge.

=/\= O'Connell to Carthage, beam us up we got the doctor, on reminder I did have to knock out an ensign. Remind me to send him a commendation. =/\=

Copy that, O'Connell. Standby for transport. You had good timing, it looks like we might have company up here.
