Mission 1 Aid
Fresh out of dry dock the newly commissioned USS Pacifica is sent out on its first mission to deliver medical supplies to a growing Federation colony. What began as a simple delivery mission got turned upside down when Section 31 made a appearance.
Summary
!!Warning Spoilers!!
Starfleet’s newest Starship the Sovereign Class, USS Pacifica is docked at Starbase 33 where it is undergoing it’s final fitting before shakedown. One by one the members of ship’s first crew start to arrive onboard led by it’s commanding officer Captain Daniel Butterworth and First Officer Commander Luke Evans, who arrive beforehand to take a personal look at the new ship. With the crew arrivals proceeding on schedule both Butterworth and Evans took the opportunity to meet with the rest of the Pacifica’s handpicked senior officers, including Chief Operations Officer, Lt. Commander Evan Ottaway and the ship’s Chief Medical Officer, Doctor Connie Morgan.
The crew quickly began to settle in to their roles on the Pacifica as final preparations continued for the Pacifica’s shakedown cruise. All of that quickly changed after Butterworth received surprise orders from Star Fleet Command. The ship’s shakedown mission was placed on hold as the Pacifica was ordered to deliver much needed medical supplies to a Federation Colony in the Titan System. After attending a hastily organised senior staff briefing, the crew made final preparations and then the Pacifica quickly got underway to the Titan System.
On route to the Titan System the Pacifica made a quick rendezvous with the USS Star to take on additional mission supplies and more crew members. During the exchange of supplies and crew the Pacifica’s sensors detected an unusual trace of Gamma radiation in the local vicinity. Still without the services of a dedicated Chief Science Officer, [[Butterworth assigned Lieutenant Commander Data who had been aboard the Pacifica to observe and assist with the ship’s postponed shakedown to investigate the strange appearance, while the Pacifica resumed course to Titan.
