<<ooc: ok crew, the base will be the first place to be effected by the pollen. All who want to particapate should log your character to the station and have fun exploring.>> ===USS Chimera, Captain Quarters == Keylor was sitting at his desk pouring over the many sensor a logs and internal recordings of the exercises that had only ceased 8 hours ago. He had returned to the ship and had 1lt Acheson guide the somewhat defeated ship back in to high orbit around Kinsi. Once they ship had returned to its circle, waiting for orders of their next mission, Keylor had opened up shore leave to all that wanted it. Even on the Chimera, most ships of the day were highly automated and only needed a skeleton crew to keep her from falling out of the sky or crashing in to a star base. Now, with the base as his backdrop, Keylor started his process of evaluating his crew and seeing how good, or bad they did. He picked up the next padd and started reading. {Ok so they disabled the shields with a tachyon pulse and then sent a boarding crew.} he tapped on the padd. {Now here is a transpport to main engineering.who?} he tapped on the pad again. The text scrolled down . {here it is. Blackburn?} Keylor frowned. He picked up a padd he had previously looked at. {Here he is on the bridge at the ceo station.} he then set the padd down and returned to the other one.{ and here he is in main engineering.} Keylor sat the pad down and scratched his head. Keylor stood up and stretched. He was all for creative thinking and action. But sometimes the actions of his officers seemed to puzzle him. Pushing the two pads to one side, Keylor picked up a different pad. Walking slowly over to the replicator in his quarters, he read the sensor logs form the station. {Ok here the chimera and the Simpson dance back and forth. The Simpson appears to have exploded. Chimera drops her shields and starts scanning the area, and pop! The Simpson is actually over here.} HE shook his head. {Well you cant blame him too much for that. The Simpson did a good job of trying to fool Acheson. But knowing that these were games, I would have waited for a full sensor sweep before lowering shields.} Keylor lowered the pad as he stood in front of the replicator. He then tapped on the console and replicated a hot cup of coffee. He picked it up and returned to his desk. Sitting the pad down on the desk, Keylor set that pad aside and picked up another. Keyor sipped his coffee and then sat back down at his desk. He started reviewing the logs on the oda's reaction to the intruders. As he read he was a little please with what he saw. The oda seemed to move quickly about the ship, react to the intruders, and they only had a loss ration of 1 chimera crew to 1.5 intruder crew. {Not bad. You cant expect everyone to come out un-touched.} Keylor slumped down in to his chair and continued reading the internal recordings. He focused on every recording where the new ODA co was. He was most interested in Jack Walsh's reactions. Keylor was on the impression that if you knew how a man fought, you could know the man better. As he scanned through the hundreds of recordings he was about to put the pad down and take a break when one recording caught his eye. Keylor stop and started the recording, rewinding the data and replaying several times. {What the.?} he thought to him self. {How could he have mistaken him for an intruder?} HE put the pad down and thought about the information he just reviewed. {Is he a loose cannon? I mean he had a full 3 seconds to decided if blackburn was friend or foe? But Walsh shot him any way.} He faced soured. HE stood up form his desk and called out to the computer. "Computer. Location of Jack Walsh. " The computer responded. "Jack Walsh is in shuttle bay 1." Keylor reached down to his desk and tapped the console. "Walsh, report to my quarters immediately!" Keylor waited a minute before the response came back, "Aye sir." Keylor now was pensive. He paced back and forth in front of his desk waiting for Walsh to arrive. "I can understand personalities getting in the way of things, but shooting some one, even in traingin is not necessary." He muttered to him self. ===End log=== Col Bretam Keylor Captain USS Chimera
