Welcome back Commander
-
Welcome to the fleet
-
Thanx y'all
-
All four of you were posted to the same ship?! WOW! Congrats to you all and have fun
-
I just wanna see the original Constitution in a movie. If they're going to make this movie, they could do it with Captain Robert April, a character that was only seen in the animated show. This way you could have cameos from a young Kirk or Spock without any continuity issues.
Basically I just wanna see this ship in a movie:

Congrats to the new Ensigns
-
Sylvie's on the Embasy. A place she will enjoy due to her "starship" anxiety. Hope everything goes well on SB 118 ops. I SIMmed there a few years ago with my old character. It's a fun place to SIM.
-
Have you all been posted yet? If so, which ship?
-
I voted for the most recent unis, but I also liked the movie (II-VI) version as well.
-
::Sylvie stands at attention and salutes the new Ensigns::
Congrats y'all. Or should I say Sirs and Ma'ams.
-
Whadya think??
-
Congratulations to all of you. I had the opportunity to read all the entries, (which kept me busy for quite some time, seeing as how many there were) and I found them all good. I don't envy the judges. Must have been hard to choose.

Here is the arrow.

A sim I wrote about my character going home a long time ago.
Enjoy
((USS Hammond))
::Sector 001 was moments away. The Hammond and Ranger dropped out of
warp at the outskirts of the Sol system and headed through the system
on impulse drive. Eventually, a little blue planet, the third planet
of this system, came into view on the main viewscreen. The planet
that Tracey called home.::
::The Hammond`s arrival at Earth left a sickly feeling in the pit of
Tracey`s stomach. As most of the crew rejoiced in the Hammond`s
homecoming, Tracey felt an awful feeling of lonliness. A couple of
weeks ago Tracey felt just as anxious as the rest of the crew to get
home and tell her parents about the mission. Tell them what life in
Starfleet was like. Tell them about the first of her hopefully many
adventures. But that would not happen. Her parents were lost,
presumed dead, and listed as such by the powers that be. But the
facts did not add up. No bodies were recovered and no debris was
found. So what the h—l happened to that transport between Earth
and Vulcan, a corridor of space that has been traversed by tons of
vessels for so many years?::
::The last two weeks were hard for Tracey. She didn`t put an awful
lot of effort into her daily tasks and spent most of her free time
searching for clues into the disappearance of her family. This was
probably affecting both her physical and mental health since Tracey
was eating little and was refraining from her regular exercise
routine. She considered seeing Counselor Stewart but never got around
to it. She was too busy searching through data banks and files. Time
was the problem, and Tracey didn`t have enough of it. Tracey only had
two weeks to get as much information as she could before going home.::
::Information was hard to come by however. Tracey compiled a list of
all Federation vessels that were in sensor range of the transport on
that day. She tried to get access to their sensor logs and crewmember
ships logs for clues but she was hitting roadblocks. Their sensor and
ships` logs were inaccessible. Tracey found this odd. Ship`s sensor
and general logs are usually public domain but in this case they
weren`t.::
<What`s going on?>
::Tracey then tried to compile a list of all non-Federation vessels
that were in the transport`s sensor range that day, but according to
Federation records, there were none. Again a weird phenomenon. The
corridor of space between Earth and Vulcan is usually very busy. All
kinds of different vessels make that journey. Private couriers,
Klingons, Ferengi, the list goes on. But there were none that day?
All this began to lead Tracey to believe that perhaps there was some
sort of coverup going on here.::
::If this problem happened to someone else, Tracey would probably
advise that person to let it go. Allow their parents to rest in
peace. If the Federation is covering something up, it`s probably for
a good reason. But this hit home. This problem was her`s and she
would not be able to go on until she had exhausted every possible
means of finding out what exactly happened. Then and only then would
Tracey allow her parents to rest in peace, and she herself, rest
peacefully.::
::When the Hammond attained a standard orbit, Tracey went to her
quarters, packed her data PADDS and headed for the transporter room.
Tracey was not alone in wanting to go the surface. There were many
other crewmembers who also wanted to transport down. Tracey had to
wait her turn.::
WELLESLEY: "Tracey!"
::The ensign stopped and turned around immediately looking a bit
surprised. Brynn walked quickly to catch up with her.::
TOWNSON: "Sir."
::Shaking her head, Brynn accompanied Townson to the airlock, who
looked forlorn.::
WELLESLEY: "We're on shore leave, so just ignore the uniform for
now." ::She smiled but her face turned somber right away.:: "I'm
sorry to hear about your parents, I know by experience it's not
easy…" ::Her voice trailed off.:: "If there's anything I can do,
let
me know, ok?"
TOWNSON: Yes Commander, Thank you.
::Brynn simply nodded and walked silently beside her. After a while,
she reached in her pocket and pulled out a tiny box.::
WELLESLEY: "I was going to wait until we returned from our shore
leave to give you this," ::She handed the box to Townson, who looked
all the more surprised. Brynn waited for her to open the box, which
contained a half pip before continuing.:: "I wish I could given it to
you under better circumstances. Congratulations, lieutenant."
::Tracey looked into the box. She wished that she had something to
say. Some way to portray her gratitude, but all that came out
was…::
TOWNSON: Umm, uhh thank you Commander. I really appreciate this. I
will continue to do my best to serve you and this ship to the best of
my ability.
::Instead of transporting each individual to a specific location on
the planet, the transporter chief transported everyone to Starfleet
Headquarters in San Francisco. From there it was up to each officer
to secure their own transportation to their various destinations.::
::Tracey materialized on a transporter pad in Starfleet Headquarters
and proceeded to a shuttle docking bay in order for her to get to her
home in Canada. There was a long lineup as crewmembers from both the
Hammond and Ranger were there. As Tracey waited in line, her patience
began to wear thin and she began to mutter under her breath `let`s
go, let`s go`. She shifted her weight from leg to leg as if she had
to go to the bathroom. Tracey wanted to get to her home quickly and
meet up with her Uncle Sorel. She believed that that was where he`d
be.::
::Around a corner, came a robed figure. The robe was black and it had
writing down the front of it. The hood was covering the head of the
figure. The robed individual headed towards Tracey. She did not
notice this person until he spoke.::
FIGURE: Ensign.
::Tracey turned to look. She was not able to see who it was through
the shadows of the hood. At that moment, the individual uncovered his
head to reveal the figure`s facial features. The pointed ears, the
upswept eyebrows, and the short-cropped black hair. Now Tracey had no
problem identifying who this individual was. She dropped her bag and
ran directly towards the man. When she got to him, she gave him a
long hug and began to cry.::
TOWNSON: Uncle Sorel!
((Earth-Starfleet Headquarters))
::Tracey`s uniform consisted of all the normal aspects with the
exception of her uniform tunic. That was replaced by her pastel
colored yellow and green ski jacket. She was wearing it with the
collar up, covering her new rank pip on her red turtleneck
underneath.::
::Tracey backed up from Sorel to leave a short distance between the
two of them. She lowered her ski jacket`s right side collar to reveal
her new rank to her uncle.::
SOREL: Pardon me , Lieutenant. Congratulations.
TOWNSON: Thank you.
::Tracey wiped her eyes dry with the sleeve of her jacket.::
SOREL: You don`t look too well. Perhaps you should see a physician.
TOWNSON: No, no. I`m fine.
::Tracey felt much more comfortable now that she was in the presence
of Sorel. Comfortable to the point where she felt like eating again.::
SOREL: Very well. I have secured us a shuttle. Are you ready to
depart?
TOWNSON: Hold on.
::Tracey ran back to the line to retrieve her bag of data PADDS and
then came running back.::
TOWNSON: OK. Let`s go.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
-
::The furthest the shuttle was able to go was New York City before
Tracey had to stop and get something to eat. There wasn`t a lack of
choice restaurants in this neighborhood, but Tracey needed something
fast, so the two of them chose a little fast food restaurant called
the Replideli. Tracey knew the food here was made through a
replicator, but she didn`t care. She was starving and replicated food
was fast.::
TOWNSON: How`s your salad?
::Sorel took time to finish chewing and swallowing before answering.::
SOREL: Agreeable. How was your sandwich?
::Tracey had just finished her pastrami sandwich, a staple in this
city for centuries, and was now sipping from her cup of coffee when
Sorel asked her his question.::
TOWNSON: Excellent. Hit the spot. ::She patted her stomach.::
So….What do you think?
::Sorel was looking over the data PADDS that Tracey brought with her,
while eating.::
SOREL: Your findings are inconclusive since you were unable to
retrieve any logs from the vessels listed here.
TOWNSON: They`re gone. I couldn`t get access.
SOREL: I see. When we get to your house, I shall try to access the
necessary records. While I am busy with that, you should get some
rest.
TOWNSON: Aye sir.
::Tracey smiled at Sorel, but as usual, her uncle did not reciprocate
the action, although his mouth did move into a slight smile, but only
for a fraction of a second.::
::Sorel finished his salad and washed it down with a glass of water.::
SOREL: We should depart.
::The two of them left the restaurant and headed home to Montreal. As
soon as Tracey opened the front door, she headed straight to her room
and fell asleep in a bed she had not slept upon in years. Sorel went
to work to try to access Starfleet records through the Townson family
computer.::
((Townson Home-Montreal))
::The aroma of freshly brewed coffee was circulating around the
house. The morning sun was sending rays of light through the kitchen
window. Sorel was sitting at the table still going over data PADDS
when Tracey entered.::
SOREL: Good morning.
TOWNSON: Morning Uncle.
SOREL: I thought you might like some real coffee after so long
drinking the replicated beverage.
TOWNSON: You read my mind. Thank you.
::Tracey went to fill a cup full of coffee before joining her uncle
at the table. She sat down at the table and stirred her cream and
sugar into her coffee and started sipping from her cup. Her eyes
wandered to the kitchen window. The late fall weather made the leaves
on the trees change their colors. Some were red and some were yellow.
It was a sight that captivated Tracey. She had not seen fall weather
since she left for the academy. Tracey had always looked forward to
this time of year when she was young. She used to go out everyday and
look up at the sky hoping it would snow. Fall meant winter was around
the corner, and winter meant ski season would begin. That same
learned, anxious feeling came back to her and she was caught off
guard when Sorel began to speak.::
SOREL: It seems as if my old Starfleet security codes are
ineffective. I am having the same difficulties as you have had in
gaining access to any files pertaining to the transport.
TOWNSON: Oh…oh yeah. Sorry. ::She rubbed her eyes.:: I`m still
sleepy. Were you able to tell granny what happened?
SOREL: Yes. I sent her a communiqué eight months fourteen days
ago. She never responded and since I have not had the opportunity during
that time to make my way to Earth to visit her, I can not be sure she
even received it, or for that matter, understood it.
TOWNSON: Then she`s still at Starfleet Medical?
SOREL: Yes. I believe she is still a patient there. I have not
received notice of her being moved to any other facility.
::Tracey`s paternal grandmother `granny` was diagnosed seven years
ago with a neurological disorder that affected the way she looked at
the world around her. Every now and again, she would revert and
relive various portions of her past. She would believe that the
people around her were people from the particular time she was
reliving and would reenact these portions of her life as if it was
taking place now. Sylvia Townson, formerly Admiral Sylvia Townson of
Starfleet Command, now spent her time wandering the halls of
Starfleet Medical with a rare disorder that affected one in a millon
people. Although she was normal, and quite fit for her age, her
relapses made her a danger to herself, and she was unable to make any
trips off the facility without a chaperone. Various medications given
to her reduced the effects of the disease to the point where around
70% of the time, she was normal, but there was no cure. Eventually
Tracey`s grandmother would succumb to the inevitable, permanent loss
of knowing where or when she is.::
TOWNSON: Maybe we should go tell her in person. Maybe she didn`t get
the message. ::Tracey abruptly stood up.:: Let`s get ready. We`ll
head back to San Francisco, visit granny, then go through files at
Starfleet Command. We`ll ask around. It`s obvious we`re not going to
get anywhere from here. Maybe even granny can help us out. You in
Uncle Sorel?
SOREL: It seems like the next logical course of action. Very well
Tracey, I am in.
::They both prepared themselves for the journey and their day ahead.
They both boarded the shuttlecraft and headed back to San Francisco.::
((Starfleet Medical))
::The nurse was looking at Tracey while holding a data PADD::
NURSE: Name please.
TOWNSON: Sylvia Townson.
::The nurse looked at Tracey with confusion. She was behind a desk.
Other nurses were scurrying about behind her.::
NURSE: Sylvia Townson is a patient here.
TOWNSON: Yes.
NURSE: I meant your name.
TOWNSON: Oh. I`m sorry.
::The nurse looked down at the PADD and typed Tracey`s and Sorel`s
name in it after Tracey told her.::
NURSE: Sylvia Townson. ::She said quietly to herself.:: Ah yes. Here
she is. ::She looked up from the PADD.:: She`s in the anteroom. ::She pointed
down the hallway.:: Straight ahead, three doors to your left.
TOWNSON: Thank you.
::Sorel and Tracey went to the room they were told to go to. The
doors swooshed open to reveal a large room with tables and chairs set up in a
classroom type setting. There were about 50 to 75 patients filling the seats. There
was a man spinning some sort of apparatus with balls in it, up on a platform in
front of the room. Tracey and Sorel asked the caregiver, who was standing at
the doorway to point out the location of Tracey`s Grandmother for them. He
pointed in the general vicinity of the middle of the room.::
SOREL: May I ask, what is her condition?
CAREGIVER: She seems fine so far.
SOREL: We are pleased to hear that. Thank you.
::The two of them made their way to where Granny was sitting. Tracey
noticed that all the patients had data PADDS that had grids with letters and
numbers in each grid. They also had tools to mark the squares on their PADDS.
When Sorel and Tracey arrived at Sylvia`s table, Tracey noticed that Granny also
had the same type of PADD and marking tool.::
TOWNSON: Granny?
SYLVIA: Hold on.
::The man on the stage pulled a ball out of the now stopped spinning
apparatus and looked at it.::
STAGEMAN: B-5
::Sylvia looked over her PADD then leaned back in her seat. Tracey
noticed there was no B-5 on her PADD. From the back of the room, someone
yelled `BINGO`. Sylvia sat up and threw her marking tool in front of her.::
SYLVIA: [...] it!
::Everyone, including Tracey and Sorel, turned to see who had yelled
out `BINGO`. A woman, around Sylvia`s age, was standing up in the back of
the room with a smile.::
::Sylvia leaned over to speak to a lady sitting next to her.::
SYLVIA: Can you believe it. That`s Abel`s third win this week.
LADY: Come now Sylvia. There`s no need to get all huffy puffy. It`s
only a game. Besides, ::She pointed towards Tracey and Sorel.:: I think you
have visitors.
SYLVIA: Ah yes. ::She turned to look at Tracey.:: How may
I…Tracey?
TOWNSON: Yes Granny. It`s me.
SYLVIA: What a pleasure to see you. How`s my little Cadet?
TOWNSON: Granny, I`m no longer a Cadet. I`ve graduated. I`m an
officer now.
SYLVIA: Oh yes. I forgot. You`re on the Hammond now. How come you`re
not in space?
TOWNSON: We`re on shore leave now Granny. I brought someone with me.
::Sylvia turned to look in Sorel`s direction.::
SYLVIA: Mr. Sorel.
SOREL: It is I Admiral.
SYLVIA: Well. Look at you. You look like a spring chicken. ::She
looked back at Tracey.:: Hard to imagine that he`s nine years older than me.
SOREL: Vulcan physiology is…
SYLVIA: Yes. I know. Vulcans are faster, smarter, stronger, live
longer than humans. ::She began mumbling to herself.::
TOWNSON: Granny?
SYLVIA: Hmmm? Ah yes. Sorry. So how are the two of you? How are
Scotty and Cynthia?
TOWNSON: We`re fine, but Mom and Dad, they went missing.
SYLVIA: Missing?
SOREL: Yes. I sent you a communiqué regarding their disappearance,
a few months ago.
SYLVIA: Oh yes. Now I remember. ::She turned back to her PADD to
reset her card.:: No need to worry yourselves. They`ll be back.
::Tracey looked at Sorel with astonishment. She then turned back to
address her Grandmother.:
TOWNSON: How do you know they`ll be back? Where are they Granny?
SYLVIA: It`s not a question of where they are but when they are.
TOWNSON:: What do you mean Granny? What do you know?
::Sylvia Townson looked up at both Tracey and Sorel.::
SYLVIA: I can`t tell you anything. I wish I can. The temporal Prime
Directive is in effect. Please leave this matter alone. If Lt. Munroe`s
calculations were correct, they should be back in about four to six months. When they return they will be debriefed by Starfleet Command and then hopefully, everything should be back to normal.
SOREL: Lt. Munroe? The Entente`s assistant science officer? That was
forty-two years ago, Admiral. How is this possible? How come I was not informed
at the time?
::Sylvia abruptly stood up and gave her PADD to the lady sitting next
to her.::
SYLVIA: Agnes, can you take my card? I`ll be back shortly.
AGNES: Sure dear, take all the time you need.
SYLVIA: Thank you. ::She turned to face Tracey and Sorel.:: Let`s go.
We can`t discuss this here. ::Referring to the BINGO room.::
::The three of them left the anteroom and headed for Sylvia`s room.::
((Time-warp – A few days later - A Ski Resort Chalet Somewhere In
The Canadian Rockies))
::Tracey decided to relax for the last two days of her R&R. Dwelling
upon her parents didn`t make any sense especially since circumstances were
beyond her control. Besides, how often does a Starship officer have the
opportunity to return to Earth?::
::Tracey`s Uncle Sorel headed back to Vulcan three days ago after
confirming the story that Tracey`s Grandmother told them. According to Sorel, Lt.
Monroe`s slight error in trajectory calculations, in sending Tracey`s parents` transport back to the present, from forty-two years back, had them
overshoot their time by fourteen months. So five months and twelve
days from now, the transport that disappeared a little over eight months ago,
should return, if it survives the return flight. And Tracey`s parents will
be just over five days older than they were at the time of the transport`s
disappearance, because, according to Tracey`s granny, they only spent
five days there.::
::The story that Tracey`s Grandmother told her and Sorel left
Tracey`s head spinning. Forty-two years ago, Sylvia Townson was first officer of a
Starship called Entente. The ship`s Captain and Science Officer (Lt. Commander
Sorel) were on a mission off ship. Tracey`s Grandmother, Commander Sylvia
Townson at the time, was left in charge. To make a long story short, the Entente
answered a Federation distress signal from a transport vessel that was
obviously Federation origin but of no design that they were familiar with. With
audio communications only, they informed the Entente that they were heavily
damaged after travelling through a temporal rift between Earth and Vulcan.
Commander Townson put two and two together and ordered no further contact
between the two vessels with the exception of notifying engineers as to what kind of equipment was necessary to help repair the transport. All necessary equipment
was sent back and forth using only transporters. No contact with the transport
was made otherwise. No one, including Sylvia Townson, knew who was on board the transport or when it came from, but Tracey`s Grandmother did know the
name of the vessel. It was written across its hull. The same name that was
written across the hull of the transport that Tracey`s parents boarded eight
months ago. The Terrasse.::
::What goes around comes around. What happened in the past must
reoccur in the future for the timeline to work out, was what Tracey`s Grandmother
said. That is why Starfleet allowed the Terrasse to make the journey knowing
full well what the outcome of that journey would be. The Terrasse was part of
history, and in order to make history, it had to make it`s journey eight
months ago. All records of the event were sealed so that no one could intervene, and that is why Uncle Sorel was never informed. This paradox left Tracey with a
splitting headache everytime she thought about it.::
::Still, no one knew the outcome. Not even Starfleet. Would the
Terrasse survive the return flight? Tracey would have to wait five months and
twelve days to find out.::
::Right now though, Tracey was relaxing with a cup of hot chocolate
in front of a fireplace in a ski resort chalet. She knew this mountain well from
her younger days when she competed. She almost always fared well here.
This was the last place she wanted to spend time at before heading back to the
Hammond. Before coming here, she wrote her parents a note at home to inform
them she was there, in case they returned, and paid one last visit to her
Grandmother again at Starfleet Medical. But her time was running short. When she
finished her hot chocolate, she put the cup down on the coffee table in front of her,
took one last look around, stood up, threw her bag over her shoulder, and took
her comm badge out of her pocket and pressed on the front of it.::

OK I think its time to give my two cents.
I voted for the Borg. Why?
Well, for one there just seems to be so many more of them. They are capable of moving greater distances quicker than ships using conventional warp and they can adapt to situations better than the Dominion.
However, there may be a problem with the founders. Without physical bodies per se, the Borg may have trouble assimilating them. They are after all liquid in their natural state. Also Janeway seemed to always beat the Borg all by herself.

This can be made into a summer reading type thing. However there are SO MANY Trek books on the market, it is unbelievable. Also, for those interested, here is an updated list of upcoming books:
Pocket Books editor Marco Palmieri on March 30 announced the tentative Star Trek fiction schedule for June 2005 through January 2006.
The new schedule reflects Pocket Books' recent decision to only publish one mass-market Star Trek paperback per month, rather than the two that had been the norm over the past years (story). As trade paperbacks and hardcovers are counted separately, many months will still see the publication of two physical Trek books, as well as the monthly eBook-only release in the Star Trek: S.C.E. series. The full schedule, can be found below:

In addition to the above books, Palmieri noted he is still hopeful the new hardcover Captain's Glory, written by William Shatner (James T. Kirk) with Judith and Garfield Reeves-Stevens, will be published during the last quarter of 2005.
Meanwhile, Palmieri also reminded fans that as of March 30, Pocket Books' Starship Titan Design Contest is officially open. Through this contest, Pocket is asking fans to design the U.S.S. Titan, the new starship of Captain Riker, which was mentioned but never seen in Star Trek: Nemesis. As the adventures of the Titan will now be chronicled in a new novel-only series, Pocket is looking for a design it can feature on the cover of an upcoming book in the series. Information on the contest, as well as some background information on the Luna-class of Starfleet vessels that the U.S.S. Titan is part of, can be found on the official contest page.

I think that it was done with Starfleet's knowledge. Otherwise why would Starfleet have visited Darwin station in the first place? I am also curious as to what the purpose of creating such humans would be? Wouldn't creating humans who are far more advanced than normal humans lead to the ultimate end of regular humans? Not just only in this case but in any case?
[2008: JAN-FEB] The end of the line
in 2008
Posted · Edited by Tracey
::Michelle Juneau stood in front of the class and took questions relating to the assignment handed out the previous day. However, the group of 7 and 8 year old Elementary school students would rather talk about the news they heard about their teacher the previous night. It was the news their 30 something year old female, human teacher was accused of being a double agent during the time of the Dominion war.::
JUNEAU: Please class. Lets stay on the subject at hand please.
::Michelle Juneau spent 4 years in Starfleet Intelligence, when 2 years before the end of the war, she was listed as "missing". She was being held and questioned by the Cardassians when she was found to be spying on them at the time. Starfleet Intelligence knew this due to the fact that regular reports were no longer coming into them from their agent. There was never a rescue attempt and she was left to be tortured and die at the hands of her abductors. For over 30 months, the woman endured the stresses, until a report came into Starfleet Intelligence that agent Juneau was no longer on Cardassia Prime. Whereabouts unknown. Starfleet Intelligence then listed her as "missing, presumed dead".::
::Three months later, an unkempt Michelle Juneau was found begging for money on a backwater Federation colony. When an intelligence officer recognized her one day, the woman was returned to Earth and heralded as one of the greatest survivors of the war. She was given the chance to restart her life and chose one away from the military. She chose to be a school teacher.::
::But despite the outward, public appearance of joy of the recovery of one of their own, Starfleet Intelligence was skeptical about the whole situation. It was not like the Cardassians to allow known spys to live. They were usually tortured for information, then killed. Therefore a closed door investigation began. An investigation that led to the conclusion that former agent Michelle Juneau was, and may still be, supplying information on the Federation to the Cardassians, and she agreed to this in exchange for her own life.::
::A young boy quickly rose his hand and began to speak.::
BOY: But Ma'am, we saw you on the newsnet last night. Can you tell us about your time as a spy?
::Michelle Juneau sat heavily in her chair at her desk and put her head in her hands. She knew her newfound, peaceful career was coming to an end and the inquiry of her activities after her capture had become public fodder. She looked up at the young boy with a look that revealed the lines of stress in her face and said "no" while shaking her head.::
JUNEAU: We have to concentrate on the subject at hand.
