Mission: https://wellington.pegasusfleet.site/index.php/sim/missions/id/4
Location: Intelligence Office
Timeline: July 3, 2399 1030

ON:


Not sure if now was the time to introduce herself, she headed for his office. Hitting the door chime, she waited.

The door opens and you notice that the room is rather empty aside from a monitor on the desk, turned toward the door and a few boxes of what appears to be various spirits. The monitor suddenly flicks on and you see a man. Salt and Pepper hair, dark brown eyes and a chin that could kill.

"Ahh Lieutenant Morgan, welcome, we uhhh... don't really use the office for much other then storage, come down to the ten forward if you want to talk"

Looking a bit stunned at the talking screen, she wasn't sure this was such a good idea at all, but she did have to report to him as he was supposed to be his superior. "Well I guess I should go to ten forward then to speak to you sir", she said. Turning on her heel, she left and headed for ten forward.

Upon arriving at the Ten Forward there was a sign posted "Closed for renovations, grand reopening tomorrow." Suddenly the doors slid open and standing there was Jack, wearing a very brightly colored Hawian shirt and behind him was Roger, putting together tables and chairs, the originals having been removed already. "Welcome, Welcome, come in, I am sure you have questions"

To say the least, she was a bit surprised to see a man dressed in a Hawaiian shirt. Nothing like she expected either. She figured he would be dressed in a uniform at least. 'What kind of outfit was this'?, she thought to herself. "Um...Lt. T'Relana Morgan reporting for...duty?", she said, a bit uncertain.

Jack laughed. "You seriously did not get the memo, come in, come in." He stepped away from the door and started working again. "Alright, i know its a bit odd, but we are not here to be official SFI. We are here too keep tabs on the Organization. We are using this ship because this is the only ship in the entire fleet we are certain is clear of their corruption as of right now. The Wellington will be a mobile center for observation and action commands. And we've been set up in the two best positions on board to weed out Organization Operatives."

"Um... ok if not official SFI then...do you honestly believe that there is a possibility that the Organization has gone as far into the Romulan Empire as I was told before being sent here?", she asked. "I was told before I left that the possibility of the Romulan Empire was beginning to make a push into the Delta Quadrant. It was also said that the Tal Shiar had a foot hold within the Organization as well. Now I don't know if you have heard anything to the contrary but I was told that I would be needed to possibly infiltrate the Organization posing once again as a Tal Shiar operative and I would need to report to a Lt. Roger Stevens", she finished. "Would that be you sir?", she added.

Jack continued to set up the new lounge "Well, I suppose it's likely they can get an agent in there. But even then it would be for subversion. I know you guys had a bit of a fight thanks to Organization forces, but the actions here where atypical and directed by a Cardassian. The organization, as ruthless as they can be, are human centrists and causing massive war with all those sides would have just hurt all humans, not just the Federation. As for the Tal Shiar having a foot hold here? Well I wouldn't be surprised if every major government has a foot hold here." He puts down the box he was carrying "Now, as for who you report too, it is not Roger over there. I don't know who gave you that order, but I am the guy in charge here. Admiral Johnathen Xavier Wade... retired... but you can call me Jack. That is Roger Stevens, honorably discharged. Your the only one here who is officially an active member of the fleet. Now that being said, if you feel an infiltration mission is warranted, draw up a plan of action and we'll take a look at it. If it looks like it will bare fruit on our fight against the Organization I will get you the resources you need to do it. Other then that we are here too look, listen and covertly pass information for more official channels. The task isn't glamorous, but we'll likely see some action as the ship gets deeper into the delta. Any questions?

"Yea the biggest one here, I am a Romulan and I look and live like one. Is that going to be a problem?", she asked. I have no intention of going through the skin grafting it took to return my face or skin color to that of a human", she said shuddering. " I like my self the way I am. Now you tell me how I would blend in on a ship this size. I mean no disrespect Admiral but changing over twenty years of my life is not going to be easy. I am by birth a full Betazoid and you will have by SFI jacket shipped to your office by Admiral Johnatnan Winters, the head if SFI Special investigations unit. If there is a need for an infiltration specialists in the near future for any type of mission you can be sure I will be your man. However until that is needed, where do you suggest I fit in? Do you have an assighment for me that would fit me on the Wellington? she asked quietly.

Jack raised an eye brow. "That is very much on you. If you want to go ahead and make your life difficult go right ahead, I am not here to stop you. Also you sound very much like you don't want to be here. If that's the case tell me right now and I will happily use my pull to get you any assignment you wish, anywhere you wish. But if you are going to be on this ship, on this assignment, get your act together. I tolerate a lot of things, but willful disrespectful stubbornness is not one of them. Understood Lieutenant?"

"Yes I do understood sir, but you need to be aware of something. As well, I asked for this posting. The delta Quadrant opens up a lot of unexplored area of space and if the Organization and other disgruntled species think they can just walk in and undermine all of what the Federation means and upholds, they are in for a fight!", she said, looking with eyes black as coal.

"Yes, they are, but let me set a something straight here. Yes, you asked for a posting in the delta, but I chose you to be here and when I made that choice I thought I was getting Betazoid who was just coming off a long op deep in hostile territory who could use something that will probably be more of an adventure then a nightmare. What I seem to have gotten is a wanna be Romulan who is so mixed up she can't think of a way to blend in on a ship full misfits. We have a Ts'usasugi, a Dalacary and whatever the fuck a Thux is and they fit in just fine." Jack, remained visible quite calm, but it didn't take a psion to tell he was getting annoyed.

"Now if you want to help this particular fight, settle in, mix in with the crew. Do your cover charge and get prepared to sort through a lot of data and paper work while we wait for the next hook. Think you can do that?"

T'Relana was already annoyed by his stubbornness and his lack of forth coming but she understood what he was saying and in that she said, "Yeah I get the point. You want me to blend in with the crew just as another misfit who is looking for an adventure out here. I am looking for an adventure out here but let me tell you something sir, I do paperwork every day of my life and I do files everyday of my life but I will not be tied to a desk on this ship. I am here to mingle with the population and whether or not you assign me to a certain area, I am free to find a department to fit in and I think I know just the place. So if you will excuse me I have to settle in to my quarters and or office and get to work. If you need me for intelligence work you just let me know. I am Betazoid through and through, don't let my outward appearance fool you" she said and headed for the door.

"You know what, no, don't go choose a department i have just the one for you." He goes over to his terminal and brings up her profile. "This ship has no set intelligence officer. A face for the information that we gather. Well now we do. You are now the highest official ranking Intelligence officer on this ship. Enjoy" he grinned.

She stopped short of the doors and spun around to face him. "After all this bull shit...now you finally decide to tell me this? Why the hell didn't you say this in the first place. All this shit could have been avoided by just telling me the truth. Instead you let me make a damned fool out of my self and THAT. Sir is something I despise. But...I do appreciate your candidness and your belief in my abilities. I will not fail in my job I hope", she added.

Jack stood there and blinked. "Yeah... well good luck in your position. It will be interesting to work with you. Dismissed."
