"Lieutenant...please, have a seat."

"Thanks Sir", said Charles trying to break the ice.

"Can I get you anything from the replicator?" said Hunter cordially.

"Yes Sir, a manzanilla honey herbal tea double sweet would be nice", said Charles

Hunter ordered the replicator to produce the manzanilla tea and a chia tea. "...Please, proceed with the debriefing" said Hunter handling the cup to Charles.

"Well Sir, the mission was going very well I hope you have heard this from Samantha... We begun our search for information in Rex Tul's planet and he told us about a Ferengi named Ramock who lived in Pentara V, so we departed to that planet... there we stayed in a house there but we commited a mistake we didn't take any Latinum with us so we had to bargain with the things we had. Suddenly Ramock asked if I could sell him Sam and We decided to take him by force and bring him back to the shuttle and interrogate him...",

Charles made a pause "What we didn't notice was a trapdoor which one of the Ferengi's security personal activated and I was Injured as you know... My Conclussions are that Capt. Jenkins has a working prototype of a Cloaked Cardassian Vessel, my analysis is that the Cardassian High counsil doesn't know nothing about this and he is using the crew of that ship to perform his revenge against you and the Maquis Command".

"Interesting assessment," said Hunter picking up Sam Carter's report, he wasn't entirely pleased with certain events which Carter reported. "But, I can't understand something, I hope you will enlighten me...Now, Ramok may be scum and he may be a slave trader, but the maquis have no jurisdiction on that planet... nor was he an enemy combatant, what right did you have to hold the man at phaser-point?

"Well sir there where two things to consider, Sam was hurt from a fight she had with some locals so I did wanted to retrive the Intell as fast as I could and the second is that our cover was nearly blown on our faces because of that event... As for having rights at the moment seemed the logical thing to do sir", said Charles

"Never the less, this was inappropriate. In the future, please take actions that are more like a Maquis officer rather than Federaion scum. Consider this a formal reprimand."

" Yes Sir, I'll be more Carefull next time... There has been a change in the matter Ramock has been seen in Qul Tuq. "I like permission to go after him." Said Charles plainly.

Hunter thought about Ramok's treatment of Ensign Forrester, he clenched his fist in anger. More than anything he'd like to see Ramok brought to justice.

Hunter took a deep breath, "I wish that were possible." He paused. "If you or Sam were to make the arrest the charges wouldn't hold up in court because you attempted to abduct him at phaser-point already." Hunter shook his head, "It wouldn't look legitimate. Besides, He's probably already out of Alliance space. Security is searching for him."

Hunter leaned back and took a sip of tea. "I came to see you when you got back," he said with a nod, "...and discovered you were with Sam Carter, in her quarters. Is there something I should know about?"

"Well sir I'm afraid Sam and I are together now... As a Couple I mean", said Charles

Hunter's brow furrowed, "I presume this relationship developed while you were on your mission?"

"Yes Sir I couldn't help it more than she could", said Charles

"No doubt you are aware of command protocols which restrict intimate relationships with subordinates in?"

"Yes Sir of course...", said Charles Silently

"I'm not going to dictate what you can or can't do in your personal life, Charles." said Hunter sternly, "...but when it comes to duty, I have to uphold regulations. I doubt choosing to discontinue your relationship with Carter is an option." Hunter paused. "You or I should talk to her about transferring to a different department which she is qualified." Hunter.

"Yes Sir I'll see to that", Said Charles a little more relieved.

"One more matter, Atwood," said Hunter gently pushing a small black box across the desk. "Your conduct has given me a little reservation but you have this coming."

Charles opened the box and found a golden full rank pip... "I'm being promoted to Full Lt.", he thought

"You are hear-by being promoted to the full rank of Lieutenant with all the responsibilities and privileges accordingly. It is duly entered into the ship's log on this stardate."

He waited untill the Captain took the pip and replaced it for the one he had on his collar

"Well, Lieutenant, congratulations. I know you feel hard about Carter, but we have to keep going. We have a number of POWs left to process." Hunter handed him a PADD. "You also have a new member on your team, Warrant Officer Northrop. She's ready for work. Have her help out with the processing of the prisoners.....Anything else Lieutenant?"

"No Sir... Thanks on the promotion. Permission to return to my duties?", Asked Charles

"Very good Lieutenant, Dismissed."

=Uss Zion, Outside Captain's Readyroom=

Charles Walked out the captain's office so he decided to ask Major Madriani if he had a spot for Sam in his Department

Atwood To Madriani

Madriani here. What can I do for you Mr. Atwood?

Sir I just had a meeting with Capt Hunter can we meet I need to ask you a question

“ Sure mister Atwood, I’m in my office, can you meet me here?”

Yes sir on my way... See you in 5 Minutes... Atwood Out Charles took the turbolift and said "Marine deck", After the Lift stopped he exited and pressed the chime of Madriani’s Office

Ryan heard the bell. “Enter mister Atwood” The man entered. “please have a seat. Can I get you anything?”

"No sir... I'm fine thanks", Said Charles while he took a seat Ryan was offering him

Ryan nodded. “Very well. So mister Atwood what can I help you with?” he was curious.

"Sir, Lt Jg Sam Carter and Myself got involved in the ladt mission and as you know he is in my line of command so I couldn't have anything serious with her until she has transferred from Intelligence to other Department and according to Sam's Training there only two Depts where she could transfer to... Security and Marines. I do not recommend Security My Ex Fiancee Melisa Jarvis is there and I do not think Sam wants to have any work related problems with her... ", said Charles Waiting for the Major to Speak

Ryan smiled. “Ex wives can be quite troublesome.” He got serious. “Well mister Atwood, there a enough positions in the marine department, a lot of transfers have been made and I have a lot of new recruits and trainees that need good guides so I can always use someone with enough experience.” Ryan paused a moment weighing his words “But why are you coming here and not her?”

"Well Sir I just Wanted to check it with you before I tell Sam... You know that we have to be Cautious with our women", Said Charles with a smile

Ryan laughed. “Very well mister Atwood, you send her to me and I’ll discuss the details with her. What posting did you think would be right for her?” he asked out of curiosity so that he could prepare for the meeting.

"Well I was thinking in MXO or Squad Leader ... What do You think?", said Charles

“For that I’d need to talk with her. But my MXO just got his posting as MCO on the USS Dallx, so I can sure use MXO,” Ryan paused. “But I could promote a squad leader if she wants to be a Squad leader” He mumbled to himself a bit. “you are her superior you think she can handle 215 marines that report to her?”

"Yes Sir I'm Sure she can", said Charles with a strange glow in his eyes

“Thinking of that, I don’t know taking advice from you on her is such a wise decision.” He smiled. “Fools in love” he thought. “Where is she now?”

"She might be on her office I think", said Charles

“Well I’ll be here for a couple of more hours. Why don’t you go talk to her and send her to me. With a bit of luck she can transfer to the marines today.” Ryan wanted these kind of things to be done fast.

"Aye Aye Sir... Permission to Return to my duties?", said charles while he stayed at attention

“Permission granted.” Ryan saluted.

Charles Arrived to the Captain's Readyroom and pressed the chime and waited until the captain make him come in, he entered and after saluting he took the seat the Captain was offering him and said:

"Sir, I need to talk to you about Sam's Department Transfer", he waited for an answer.

Hunter leaned back in his chair, "So soon?"

"Well Sir She had decided that she will like to continue her career in the Security Department", said Charles waiting for the bomb to reach it's target.

"Okay," said Hunter with a slow nod, "..Okay, this is her choice right?"

"Yes Sir, That's her Choice", Answered Charles

Hunter swiveled for a moment in his chair, contemplating the ramifications which might occur, after weighing the options he replied, "That is acceptable. She can report to Melissa Jarvis after she submits her transfer to the XO."

"Thanks Sir I'll make sure that she does that"

"Is there anything else Lieutenant?" asked Hunter.

"No sir That Would be All... Permission to return to my duties?", Asked Charles

Hunter nodded, "Dismissed Lieutenant."

"Aye Aye Sir", Said Charles as he turned, saluted and exit the Captain's Office.

Teilani Dane, Chief Medical Officer, [PC]

Stardate: 58204.18 1500

After her tour on the Zion together with Dr Northrop, Teilani headed back to sickbay. She needed to see how her patient Ensign Forrester was doing.

As she entered sickbay she noticed that one of the alarms was bleeping. She rushed over grabbing a hypospray and her tricorder on the way. As she reached the biobed on which Forrester lie, and ran the tricorder over Forresters body she noticed that the Ensign was gaining consciousness. Teilani took a damp cloth and brushed the ensigns face.

"Ensign, Teilani said, there was no response. Ensign, open your eyes", Teilani said a little louder.

Screaming and sobbing she sat up in a panic and began to try and get away.

"No, no stay down, your alright. You are on the Zion, Teilani said softly. Is there anything I can get you?"

"Z-Zion? H-How?" she laid back down on the biobed in exhaustion. "W-What happened?"

"Well our lounge manager Miranda and a friend of her from the Atlanta happened to recognize a certain Ferengi. They got into a fight and at the same time they discovered you. They managed to incapacitate your abductors and brought you back here."

Forrester closed her eyes, "It was horrible."

"Can you tell me what happened to you, before you were brought to the station?", Teilani asked, while adjusting some of the readings.

Then she felt a cold shiver run across her spine. She turned around, looking back, there was nothing there. It seemed that the temperature had dropped a few degrees. Another point for the engineering department.

"Computer, raise room temperature by 5 degrees. My apologies ensign, we have some technical difficulties of late. Please continue."

"I'd rather not talk about it yet." said Forrester. "Do they have them in custody?"

"Station security is looking for them, they will let us know once they have them", Teilani responded.

"W-What day is it?"

"It is Monday stardate 58204.18", Teilani replied.

"Those ten days seemed like a month, I was violated around the clock and beaten."

Teilani smiled as she put her arms around the ensign. "Your safe now, she said with a reassuring voice.

"I-I don't want to talk any more, I-I'm sorry." she said.

"That's o.k. Teilani said, I will give you something to sleep. Lie back down, nobody will harm you here I will make sure of it". Teilani reached for a hypospray with sedation and pressed it to Ensign Forresters neck.

Forrester sighed as the effect took over, she closed her eyes and drifted off.

"computer lights at 1/3". The lights in around the biobeds lowered and Teilani walked back to her office.She would not leave, even if she had to pull a double shift again, until she was sure that the Ensign was fit to leave.

As she said down at her desk she decided to sent a small memo to the Captain and to engineering.

"Computer record the following memo"

To: Captain Hunter From: Dr Teilani Dane

Re: Ensign K. Forrester

Sir,

Please be advised that ensign Forrester has regained consciousness. However, she is not ready to be questioned about her whereabouts. Once fully recovered I will let you as well as security know about it.

"computer save memo and sent it to captain Hunter."

"Memo saved and sent, the computer responded.

Computer record new message:

To : Guiseppe Silvio - Chief engineering From: Teilani Dane Chief medical

Chief,

If you ever have the time would either yourself or one of your crew come down to sickbay and fix the following equipement.

- replicator - climate controle - biobed 4

Several times the commands do not seem to kick in. Chief I need my coffee!!

Teilani Dane out.

Computer save memo and sent

"Memo saved and sent," came the reply.

Now there was nothing more to do than just wait. Teilani sat back in her chair, her eyes resting upon the sunflower painting.

Departmental Transfer "
By: Samantha Carter, Security Officer, [RNPC]
Charles Atwood, Chief Intelligence Officer, [PST]

Stardate: 58204.18 1800

Charles had just finished the conversation with major Madriani when he decided to tell Sam the bad news. He tapped his combadge.

"Atwood to Carter"

"Carter here" "What can i do for you Sir", Sam asked.

Lt I need to see you in my office... How about 10 Minutes?

"I'm just on my way to Miranda's can we meet there?" Sam replied.

"Ok, I'm on my way meet me there in 10 minutes."

Ten minutes later Charles appeared at Miranda's and took a quiet table hoping he didn't bump into Melissa... He was thinking in the best way to tell Sam the bad news when she appeared and as he waved to her he said with a smile, "Hello Sam... over here!"

Sam's face broke out in a big smile as she saw her boyfriend waving to her. "Hi honey', she whispered as she sat down. "What's up?”

Charles gave her a kiss and then pointed for her to sit next to him, giving bad news wasn't his thing but he loved her and this had to be done... "Honey I've been talking with Captain Hunter and he has ordered me that you have to transfer yourself from Intelligence Department to another department", Charles made a pause waiting for Sam's answer.

"What do you mean", Sam said with an outburst. "You mean to say that I'm no longer an Intelligence officer anymore!”

"I'm afraid you are not... You are to report with Major Madriani for an interview for his department... …………Calm down honey", said Charles.

"No I won't calm down", Sam continued. "Now that we are a couple it does not mean that you could make a decision on my behalf. I would have appreciated it if you had asked me about it!!!"

"Well, you are right... but keep it down people are watching us!", said Charles.

"I don't care if people are watching", Sam said with a angry voice as she was getting up. "You did not have the right Charles!. Sam had to pull al her strength together not to slap Charles across the face.

"Listen Lieutenant... This is exactly why couples cannot be in the same line of command, I am sorry that this has to happen but as Chief of the Department I am forced to do this", said Charles a little worried but stern.

"Yes Sir", Sam sat back down again. She lowered her voice, "Look Charles, I am flattered by your offer but I am not cut out for a marine. I studied all my life to become a security officer. That is where I would like to continue my career", she said.

"I am aware of that Sam, I just thought you wouldn't want to work under LtJG Jarvis... so I talked to Maj Mandriani but you where able to choose at all times... After all It's still your career on the line", said Charles.

"I'm going to see Captain Hunter myself and ask him if he allows me to transfer back to security. And as for Melissa.... Sam paused. "We are adults and Maqui officers we simply have to put our differences aside and work together".

"Listen Sam I'll talk to him personally, but if you want Security...Security it is", said Charles and reached for her hand.

Sam started to relax as Charles reached for her hand. "O.K. so you will talk to Captain Hunter then?" Sam wanted to know that for sure. Then she noticed the extra pip on his collar. "My god you have been promoted," she said with a surprised look on her face. "When did that happen?"

"About 15 minutes ago in the Captain's readyroom after the debriefing", Charles responded.

"You silly, you did not even tell me about it". Sam was so happy for Charles that she almost forgot that she was still a little angry at him.

"Well Honey you are more important to me than this", said Charles as he kissed her hand.

Sam blushed he was so romantic sometimes. "Let's celebrate then", she said.

"Very Well..." He pointed to the waiter and ordered champagne for both of them... "There's one more thing I need to ask you", he said reaching for the little black box inside his pocket.

The waiter brought 2 glasses of champagne and Sam took a sip of her bubbly. She sneezed as the bubbles reached her noise. "No more bad news I hope" she said.

"No Honey, on the contrary it's just that I think we should ask permission to the Capt. to move in together... What do you think, and we are practically living together anyway", said Charles waiting for an answer.

"Hm”, Sam nodded, that is a good idea now we only get in the way of each other. We do have to move to bigger quarters then. Maybe ensign Riaan can help us with it.

"And there's another thing... …..Samantha Carter would you make me the happiest man in the whole universe by marrying me?", he said at the same time that he stood up and put one knee into the ground and opened a little black box he had hidden behind his back, revealing a diamond ring.

Sam nearly choked on her champagne. "Will you get up, she hissed at Charles, you are making a spectacle of your self. Charles you know I love you, but you are moving too fast. We hardly know each other and then asking me to marry you, that is not the way it works."

"Call me old fashioned but what happened to the courtship thing, getting engaged first. Tell me about that Charles."

Sam got the jitters, he was moving too fast. She did not like to be pressed, that would only turn her off, what if it did not work out. What if he would find some one else. Would he discard her just as easily as he had done with Melissa. She could not marry him, not now, not before they knew more of eachother.

Charles sensed her feelings and said "I know you are a little worried of me getting engaged to another girl as I did to Melissa but it won't happen... It would be as you want it to be. We'll wed whenever you are ready", said Charles as he put the ring on her finger.

Sam looked at the sparkling ring. Not knowing what to say. she took another sip of her champagne. She still was in doubt, but quickly dismissed the thought not wanting Charles to know. Sam kissed Charles on the cheek and whispered in his ear. "I got to go my shift starts in 10 minutes, I will thank you more thoroughly tonight. A sly mile curled around her lips. “Don't forget got sent your request and my transfer form to the Captain, Sam said as she stood up.

"I wont and have a nice shift", Charles responded as he prepared to speak to the CO about it.

Cake and Coffee "
By: Teilani Dane, Chief Medical Officer, [PC]
Giuseppe Silvio, Chief Engineer, [RNPC]

Stardate: 58204.18 1800

==USS Zion - Engineering, Miranda's and Sickbay== Silvio sat in his office reviewing his messages. He was amused to see the message from the Doctor. She needed her coffee. Silvio smiled, grabbed his tool kit and headed for sick bay. As he entered the turbolift he decided the make a quick detour to Miranda's.

As he entered Miranda's she greeted him with a smile. "Hello Silvio. What can I do for you?"

"You wouldn't know the Doctor's preference in coffee would you," asked Silvio.

"It is my job to know these things Silvio. Currently she has been drinking Jamaican blend double strong double sweet."

Silvio shuddered. That did not sound good to him. "Great, I will take one of those to go. The largest size you have too please."

Miranda got his order for him and he headed to sickbay. When he arrived the Doctor was not there. He placed the coffee on her desk and began a diagnostic on the food replicator. While that was running he took out his tricorder and began scanning biobed 4.

Removing the access panel he began probing the connections of the bed looking for the problem. He was not able to find any reason that this bed was not working so he decided to do standard maintenance on it. Carefully he checked the unit's power connections and refitted a few isolinnear chips.

After having taking a shower and putted on a clean uniform Teilani headed back to sickbay, she could not leave ensign Forrester alone for too long.

To her surprise she noticed Silvio walking around biobed 4. Teilani smiled as she softly walked up to him. "Well, well, well, if it isn't my favorite

chief of engineering", she said with a big smile.

"Catching up on some backlogs Chief? Did you have any idea how long I had to

go without my coffee?, Teilani said amused.

"What," asked Silvio. "I just got your message this morning. I came right away." He gave her his best "service with a smile" look and glanced at her office. "I have brought you some coffee. It is on your desk."

"You did?" Teilani said surprised, while walking back to her office.

As the doctor went into her office Silvio replaced the access cover on bio bed 4 and then laid down on it. The bed sprang to life as his vital signs began showing on the bed's monitors. Satisfied that it was working correctly Silvio jumped off the bed and smiled. "Another patient saved."

Teilani came back in to the main room, holding the cup of coffee in her hands, closing her eyes as she inhaled the fragrance."Chief, she said, I could just kiss you for this. How did you know that I liked this so much?"

"I asked Miranda. She is one smart woman." Silvio smiled. "I bet she knows what everyone normally drinks."

So everything is now fixed, she asked while sipping her hot coffee. "How about the climate control, chief?. Any idea what caused the malfunctions?

Silvio looked at the results from the replicator diagnostic. They were completely normal. So far Silvio had not found anything wrong. Putting the replicator back online he ordered, "Cake double chocolate with ice cream." The replicator created it just as he ordered it. "Looks to be working." He handed the cake to the doctor.

Silvio again took out his tricorder and took the room temperature reading. "I will take a closer look at the environmental controls from main engineering." He paused. "There have been a ton of malfunctions lately. Seems like every is having problems. When we go to look we cannot find anything wrong." Silvio shrugged. "Very strange."

Teilani nodded she knew what he meant. By the way Silvio, how are YOU doing?, she asked with interest.

Silvio placed his tools back in the kit and snapped it shut. "I am doing just fine. Eager to get away from Qul Tuq though. We have spent too much time here."

"I could not agree more Mr. Silvio, Teilani responded. "The quicker we are on our way the better. Anyway thanks chief for the coffee and the cake, if you

ever want to talk, just drop by, I don't get many visitors here."

"Sure thing doctor. The cake is based on a recipe from my Grandmother. I hope you enjoy it." Silvio waves and left sickbay.

Poltergeist #23"

Charles Atwood, Chief Intelligence Officer, [PST]

Stardate: 58204.18 1950

Charles decided to talk with Maj. Madriani about the New Black Ops team he needed to form, he had just filed a report to the XO on the matter and wanted to discuss it with the major to see if it was possible

Atwood to Madriani

Ryan has just put his daughter to bed when he heard Atwood’s Call. “ Yes mister Atwood?” he asked tapping his combadge and slowly closed the door to Alice her bedroom.

Sir I need to talk to you about a Black ops team I want to create is this a good time?

Hm, very well mister Atwood come to my office, This shouldn’t be discussed over the comm. Meet me there in 5 minutes.” Ryan walked to the quarter control panel and activated his combadge to serve as Baby phone.

Yes Sir I'll meet you there

Charles took a turbolift to Madriani’s Office and waited until he arrived a couple of minutes later. they both went in and Charles waited until the major spoke.

“Sit down Lieutenant.” Ryan said sitting down himself. “Now what is this about a Black Ops team. I thought they where created only when the situation demanded it?”

"Yes Sir that's Exactly My position but I would like the files of your candidates so I could have a pre defined team if the situation comes", Said Charles

Ryan nodded. “Very well, for what positions would like me to give you candidates?” Ryan asked. He knew there where many positions.

"Well Sir I think I would take the Engineer from Engineering crew and Medical Too. But for the rest I'm pretty opened I would Like first to start with the more trained people that aren't essential to your line of command I'm thinking in 3 people", Said Charles

“Well” Ryan thought for a moment. He called up a list of names from his computer. “ I take it I’ll need to fill out; Master-at-arms, Gunners mate and weapon specialist?”

"Yes Sir That's Exactly The positions I had in mind", said Charles while he waited for the Major to show him the profiles he had in mind

“Very well.” Ryan took a Padd and copied the data of his screen to the padd and handed it to Charles. “I would recommend Sergeant Major of Starfleet Ramsey Jones, as you master at arms. He’s on my personal shortlist to become warrant officer soon he’s well disciplined and has a great fondness for intelligence. Though he is one of the older ones with 41 years, He’s also Chief of the masters of arms” Ryan looked at Atwood to see if he liked Ryan’s choice.

"Perfect I concur with you in this sir", said Charles waiting for the next position candidate

“Ok scroll down on your padd. 2nd Lieutenant Peter Sellers, Chief Of Function: Specialist, 32 years of age, specialized in material arts, stealth operation, and heavy weaponry.” Ryan didn’t look this time. “And as for gunners mate: I’d say Lance Corporal Ramirez, very reliable, steady shot.” Ryan looked to see if Charles was satisfied.

"Sir I think This is the Correct group, after I Cleared With the XO I would like to Interview them... If that's ok with you?", Asked Charles

“Certainly” Ryan said. “I think you will find them a great asset to your team.” Ryan stood up. “Now if there is nothing else?”

No Sir Sorry to disturb you"; Said Charles and saluted, he stayed in attention waiting for Madriani to dismissed him.

"No problem, dismissed.” Ryan saluted. Charles and Ryan walked out of the office, Ryan locked the door. “until later Mister Atwood.” He nodded and they went separate ways.
