((McKinley Station - Earth Orbit))

::Brell gazed out the window and took another bite of his doughnut
an odd earth food that one of his fellow engineering officers had
described as the prefect breakfast. The Bolian had taken a liking to
the sugary pastries though he was sure Dr Hilzarie will put him on a
diet the moment he got back to the constitution. Put for now he was
here and the doctor was no doubt with her husband the captain. It
seemed like so long ago that they were all together. He had in fact
only been on McKinley station for five weeks and the refit of the
USS Galaxy was nearing completion. When Brell sought out extra
training in engineering from the federation they assigned him to
join the SCE and help oversee the project. Working on the first of
her class he found himself getting more familiar with galaxy class
ships than any other even the halls of the Embassy seemed distant
now.::

Brell: =/\= Brell here go ahead. =/\=

Asky: =/\= Sir there is something in today's reports you may want to
see. =/\=

Brell: =/\= Send it to my terminal. =/\=

::He moved across his small office and finished his doughnut in one
bite and activated the screen. Before him the orders stood for the
immediate withdraw of all federation citizens from Duronis II,
cutting of all diplomatic ties in order to join the Romulan Star
Empire. The news sank in slowly it was all for nothing everything
they did there and the Laudean made the wrong choice.::

Brell: Computer Open a channel to The Duronis system, USS
Resolution, Commander Taboo.

Computer: Working … Unable to establish connection due to Romulan
interference.

Brell: Damn, Computer Then encode a message to be delivered once
Taboo is in range for him to contact me.

Computer: Request Completed.

Martin: =/\= Martin to Brell, we are getting ready to start up the

Brell: =/\= On my way. =/\=
