"Very Well Lieutenant begin the preperations you need. " Logan said looking at her. "Everyone report in" Logan said as he faced forward and opened the console on the arm of the command chair.

"Aye" she nodded and turned toward her console. She quickly opened the channel to the CIC. "Commander Larkon, Lieutenant Gordon. I am sending through my plan for how to proceed with the operation."

Gordon had made his way to the CIC after finishing his part of the plan, and now he stood there with the Cardassian officer, not giving the man any eye contact as he answered the channel. =/\= "Understood Lieutenant. This seems in order."

Post by Captain Valdora on Dec 3, 2009 1:06:55 GMT -5
Valdora sat in his cells, his eyes closed and his breathing heavy. He could hear the slow pounding of his heart, the heavy breaths he was taking. His face was almost completly white, blue veins now showing and pounding underneath. He slowley opened his eyes as he heard the doors outside open. He turned his head and as his vison cleared he saw the smug face of Malak. "Hello Captain" Malak stood with his hands behind his back "are you ready to help me?" Valdora didn't answer. "Very well" Malak responded "but be aware that we are close to finding your ship and it will die before you do. I promise you that."

The turbolift doors slid back and Jo'rek walked jingerly onto the bridge. He stood behind the command chair and saluted. "Chief Of Staff Jo'rek reporting for duty sir!" He called and snapped a salute.

Jade nodded and closed the channel. She then began getting to work preparing the ship for such a dangerous mission. She also worried about the damage and lack of supplies. If this new species were so powerful why had they not helped them out further? Perhaps there resources were limited. And they had taken their second Doctor just like that. No explanation as to how she ended up in their part of the galaxy or anything. She only hoped that they would live long enough to find out. "The main deflector is on the blink again Figgs. I can't do anything without it" she called over to the ops station.

Logan looks up at the chief and smiles."At Ease Chief." He looks from the chief to jack" Jack i need you to have security teams standing by just incase we have visitors." He Looks at sarah" Sarah start looking into different ways to modify our weapons so they are more effective against the covenant fleet." He looks around the room and looks at brian" Mr. Durn when we are in range start scanning for the captain's lifesigns and coordinate with lieutenant Gordon and help them navigate around the ship."

The sound of his comm badge woke Foley barely and hour and a half into his rest.
" Dr Foley could you please come to sickbay. It's urgent."
Foley sat up and rubbed his eyes which were now red raw with sleep and tired.
"I'm on my way" he said and headed down to sickbay.
" Dr Foley , its Major Shepard.........." the nurse talking to him trailed off as Foley swept past and headed straight for where John lay in his coma. One look at the marine told Foley it was all over. His heart was still beating very faintly but his brainwaves were nothing but flatlines and figures of zero on all screens. Foley watched as the heartrate slowly dropped and flatlined. Major Shepard had died.
"Foley to Commander Logan. It is with sadness that I report the death of Major John Shepard. There was nothing I could have done. You will need to find a permanent replacement. I'll make out the death certificate now. Foley out."
He swiftly drew the sheet over Johns face and turned away. " Sometimes I feel I'm not doing enough............" he muttered to himself and returned to work in sickbay.

Jade frooze and rose her head to look up from her console. The silence of the bridge only broken by the chirps of the ship. She swallowed and felt a wave of emotion watch over her as she looked over at Commander Logan. She had only known him a short time but had spent many hours talking to him in the mess hall and now she felt his loss as deeply as anybodies. She knew she had work to do to save yet another life but she simply sat in silence and looked at the first officer.

OOC: Traditional is with full honors, the torpedo tube thing from star trek, etc. If Karl or Logan doesn't like it feel free to edit my post or let me know.
Gordon looked up at the com chatter, "He's dead?" he thought before sinking into a nearby chair, feeling hurt by this, and just sat there for a moment before slowly tapping his combadge. =/\= "CIC to bridge, as ranking Marine officer I would like to respectfully request a traditional funeral service be held for him after this mission is over, unless other plans have already been made?" he said, his voice more solemn than usual.
A notice came in on his console that the shuttle cloaking devices were installed, and he nodded at that speck of good news...and after getting his answer from the bridge, he spoke, =/\= "The shuttle cloaks are installed and my teams are ready. How long until we make contact with the nebula?"

Lieutenant Commander Larkon with his greyed hair and pale ghostly aged Cardassian skin stood beside the young marine. He looked at Fist Lieutenant Gordon "Not the way you would want a promotion kid. I am sorry for your loss, I have been in your shoes before Lieutenant, all too familliar for this old bat."

Barely hearing the the com chatter Enterprise woke up from his attentive state. "Sorry Lt. Mandelo, I took them offline as I needed to do some modifications to them. I will bring them online in a moment." but just as he reinitialized the dish the com came in informing the crew of the recent loss. The Major and him were not close but their short time together on the Holodeck gave him a deep understanding to his chracter and he knew they just lost a good man. He decided then and their to head for Main deflector controls to do the modifications manually and stop by the hangar deck to have Jade look over the sensor and tricorder modifications. Apparently the sensors were still having problems and along with the dampening field on the Covenant ships it may be impossible to search for the Captain's whereabouts. Excusing himself from the bridge an operations officer took his place at the station as he boarded the turbolift.

Jack usually not feeling any remorse for anyone took a minute and sat in silence in memory of his fellow crew member before he spoke up breaking the silence." Sir security teams are standing by."

Sarah Waits for jack to finish before she speaks" Sir Weapons are online. We have almost depleted our supply of aft torpedos but other then that we are good to go. Shields are at 87 percent and slowly rising. We are ready to depart whenever your ready sir."

"Mandelo, your going to have to continue your work on the way." Logan taps the console on the arm of the chair. "Logan to figueroa your going to have to continue your work on the way. Keep me posted." He closes the channel and opens a shipwide comm "Attention this is Commander Logan please note as of now we have lost Major Shepard. He was a good friend and a fine military leader. So it is with great honor that i say that we are dedicating this battle to him. So let us take a moment of silence for our lost crew member." Logan takes a moment of silence for Major Shepard. "With that being said Red Alert all hands battle stations. Tactical stand by weapons and shields." Logan closes the channel "Helm set course for the nebula best possible warp." He said sitting back in the chair and relaxing for a moment. "Aye sir" came the helm officer. "Engage" Logan said as the red alert came on and the ship went to warp.
