Aeryck quickly took a seat across from E.J. and explained what was happening with Event Horizon. The news was horrible which was why the CinC sent Explorer to rescue them. The Admiral felt there was no time to seek permission from FAdm Skyner and chose to act now! If this was going to result in Aeryck being demoted, then so be it. They all had friends on that ship and nobody was prepared to lose any of them, especially after the loss of so many from the Battle of Sector Epsilon.
Adm Arayuss:
Event Horizon is in serious trouble! Due to a saboteur, they ended up at the Trivas System in the C-57D Universe and are currently being pursued by sinister agents of something known as the Emerald Chain! Captain Little has been incapacitated and Commander Cypher is in command. The saboteur was Yeoman Jo’Kla, from the Mirror Universe they were originally heading to. The Ensign killed himself shortly after sabotaging the TDD, which is too damaged to bring them home. I was thinking that I should have asked Fleet Admiral Skyner if I could send Explorer in to save them, but realized I just did not have time to waste explaining it all to him and then have to wait for him to process what he was told. So I sent Explorer to rescue Event Horizon as fast as possible. What are your thoughts, E.J.? Do you think I’ll be facing a court martial on this? Will I lose command of Gamma Fleet?[/i]
The Admiral sat in the chair across from his friend and waited to hear his words of wisdom. Aeryck knew it would not take Explorer long to locate Event Horizon and come to their rescue. Maybe 10 minutes at least. Adm Arayuss hoped they could evade the Emerald Chain for at least that long. The CinC’s vessel was a formidable Starship and he felt Explorer would be a match for any ship the Emerald Chain would dare to attack Event Horizon with. _________________

The Admiral nodded in agreement, it would be better if the two of them spoke to FAdm Skyner together. That way Como Carpathia would be there to offer support if it was needed if the Fleet Admiral became belligerent over Aeryck’s decision to send Explorer to save Event Horizon from their dire circumstance.
Adm Arayuss:
I say
YES!
We just need to locate him and go to wherever he is and give him a report in a matter-of-fact manner. That way he understands that regardless of how he takes it, Explorer is on the way to Universe C-57D to save the people we care about.
Aeryck tapped his Combadge and called out to the SB34 computer so he can inquire on FAdm Skyner’s whereabouts.
Adm Arayuss:
Computer, where is Fleet Admiral Skyner?
SB34-Com:
Fleet Admiral Skyner is located in the Spacedock Officer’s Lounge.
The CinC looked over at Como Carpathia with a wry smile on his face as he spoke.
Adm Arayuss:
We are in luck, E.J. He’s in a public place, the perfect location where he would have to keep his reaction civil! Let us get to his location right away, Commodore!
Together they left the Officer of the Division 1 Commander and proceeded to the Turbolifts where it would take them down to the Spacedock area. From there they would go looking for the Officer’s Lounge and find the Fleet Admiral, hopefully enjoying a relaxing drink of some kind. From what Aeryck could remember, FAdm Skyner only drank alcohol in social settings and he never got completely intoxicated like Capt Zh’Osha did too frequently. _________________

E.J. was looking at the images sent to him by Capt Daqtorgh of so many colonists killed horribly when Cmdr Delgado entered. This was the latest update from Whitestar that only came in a few moments ago. Como Carpathia was truly mortified at what he saw on his PADD, so much so that he almost didn’t even realize the XO entered his office. Seeing the images of the tortured children was just too much for the Commodore, but he still had not received word from the Captain that assistance was needed. E.J. didn’t want to jump the gun and tell Cmdr Delgado that it was time to depart just yet.
Como Carpathia:
I’ve just received an update from Whitestar along with images that are just too hard to describe. Before Captain Daqtorgh launched, I told him Infiniti would be ready in the event he felt he needed assistance, but the Captain hasn’t called for any as of yet. If we were to just show up without being called to assist, it would give the impression we had no confidence in Daqtorgh. I appreciate you getting Infiniti ready to depart so promptly, Aléjandro. Perhaps we should head on over to the ship and wait to see if we receive another message, let me check in with Admiral Arayuss to make sure he and Vice Admiral Martinelli saw the images too.
The Division 1 Commander got up from behind his desk, grabbed his PADD and made his way for the doorway with Cmdr Delgado following behind. Together they walked down the corridor to the Office of the Commander in Chief and since the doorway was open and Lt. JG Russ was not at her desk, the Commodore peeked inside and saw both Adm Arayuss and VAdm Martinelli looking at their PADDs, with the Administrative Assistant looking on as well. Andrea looked visibly shaken by the imagery and found herself turning away because she had seen enough.
Como Carpathia:
Knock-knock. Mind if we join you, Admiral?
The CO of Infiniti stood in the doorway with his First Officer and waited to be invited into the Admiral’s office. It was good that the Admiral and Vice Admiral were both in the same place watching the updated information on the New Bajor colony together. This way they could all make an informed decision on what to do next. That was, after they received a call from Whitestar to assist them. Until then, E.J. felt their hands were tied. The Commodore didn’t even think it would be wise for Adm Arayuss to order Infiniti out to the colony before Capt Daqtorgh called for assistance. E.J. felt doing so would give the Captain of Whitestar the impression no one in Gamma Fleet’s Administration had any confidence in his command decisions at all. _________________
