Happy Homecoming

"Hmm, I suppose you might be looking foward to seeing some of your family again? after all you didn't even sign up to be taken a hundred years into the future." Lo'Tel said, taking a small sip of his soup.

Startled, she hesitated for a moment, then shook her head. "No, no, there's no one. My only family is here." She shrugged, her tone lowering as she looked idly around the room. "Everyone I ever had was killed by..." Her heart skipped as she looked back at Lo'Tel. Cardies...all killed by Cardies, after they were tortured and raped...

"I'm sorry..." She stood, shoving her hands into her pockets. "I have to...this was a bad idea..." Not that she held him responsible, she knew better now. She had new friends, a new family that didn't fit with her life here. And there was no one to talk to about it...

Lo'Tel watched Riley stutter. He then realized that that might now have been the best question to ask.

"Everyone I ever had was killed by..."

Lo'Tel thought for a moment. He was pretty sure how that sentence would have ended, judging by how she had treated him the first while that she had been on bored.

"I'm sorry..." She stood, shoving her hands into her pockets. "I have to...this was a bad idea..."

Lo'Tet stood up as well. He was never good with awkward situations.
"Umm," He stuttered for a moment, "Perhaps we could go down to earth, to one of those "fishing boats". I hear that it is good diving in some of the southern areas." Lo'Tel suggested. He had no idea what to say, and didn't want to just send her out in a state of what seamed to be depression.

Hesitating, Riley looked back at him, then shrugged and nodded. What harm could it do? Besides, it would distract her. "Um, sure, all right. I've never been fishing before. Heard about it, but never had a chance..." To do anything that was fun or leisurely or beyond the limits of survival. And that reminded her of her goals...goals that conflicted with her life.

"Can't much swim, either," she added, shaking her head. "So, I hope we don't fall in...besides, sharks would probably eat us..." She laughed. "Lead on."

Lo'Tel was surprised when she actualy accepted. That didn't seam likely, but he was glad to do it.
"Okay, from what I've heard I think there are some big things called "Fish cats" or something like that in areas of the Americas." Lo'Tel said. He was mainly aware of fishing through his childhood and so wasn't aware of Terran species.
Lo'Tel led the way to the transporter room.
"Hello again." Lo'Tel said to the same woman who had been controlling the transporter, "We are heading down to.." He thought for a moment, "The nearest boat rental shop on the Mississipi river." he finally said. That just sounded about right to him.
The woman shrugged and typed in the cowardinance.
They tranported and formed right next to the river on a rocky area. A little ways ahead there was a road and a small building that looked made out of wood. There were several boats tied to it.
"I guess this is a boat rental place." Lo'Tel said, smiling, "Would you like to enter?"

[Alex Ream]

Alex walked up to the bookshelf he had left John's house in order to get settled down. His bookshelf was his favourite piece; it contains hundreds of books each read. Alex loved reading and as he grabbed his first novel and sat down with a tea he reliazed how much he loved being at home.
He settled down to a good book and a cup of tea wondering how things were going on the Diamond

On:

<Karl Mjolnir, Lieutenant?>

Karl knelt in the dirt, his training rifle in his hands. Nearby, his team was scattered around, but not too far away he knew was a popular beam-in point, and it was towards there that he was headed when he heard the familiar noise and saw the flash of light that accompanies a beam-down. As he stood out of the brush, he spotted two other Starfleet personnel, so naturally he walked over and raised his rifle so it was muzzle up... only to collapse around a training round from the back.

They tranported and formed right next to the river on a rocky area. A little ways ahead there was a road and a small building that looked made out of wood. There were several boats tied to it.
"I guess this is a boat rental place." Lo'Tel said, smiling, "Would you like to enter?"

"Sure." Riley nodding, thinking that Hubbard would have her head if he had any idea what she was doing. But she didn't have the option of contacting Corsair, so this was better than sitting around, brooding. But as she was about to enter, she heard someone coming up from behind them. Turning, she was startled to see a man walking toward them...

"They're training," she said, shaking her head. Kind of close to civilization, but then, good place to learn to avoid collateral damage. But as she nodded to the man, he collapsed and she looked up at Lo'Tel. "Shot in the back...poor sucker! I sure don't miss training." She figured that someone would be coming over to tend to him, even in training, the low-level shots hurt.

Karl lay where he fell, his back hurting, his face was buried in the mud, his rifle digging into his stomach. As he raised his head, he stared blankly at the two of them, and said in a monotone. "Ow."

Earth

Portsmouth

Alex finished his book and the night was well settling in and as he came into his lounge he saw his computer glisten and moved over to access the messages.
He had two messages which was uncommon as Alex often kept himself to himself:

Message 1: School Re union
There we be a school re-union held at Portsmouth College on 18th October at 6:00 PM to ex-students you are more then welcome to attend

Alex laughed it had been a long time a go since college
"That might be interesting" He said seeing the date was the 17th he thought he might go however seeing the next message wasn't so warming

Message 2: Starfleet Command
Alex Ream, please bring all logs on USS Diamond past month and report to Starfleet Command Headquaters San Fransisco Tommorow.
Admiral Dunton

Alex shook his head and knew he had some paper work to do

[Alex Ream]

It had been 7 months since Alex had seen Starfleet HQ and it felt good to be back seeing familiar faces wondering the halls; Alex found himself at a familiar room and entered walking over to a desk and staring at the man.
"senior Captain Ream reporting as ordered sir" Alex said smiling. The man stood and shoke Alex's hand
"Well back Alex please sit" Alex sat smiling handing him the Diamonds latest reports
"That's everything Admiral, 6 months of temporal expoloration" The Admiral put it down.
"Yes well. Sadly you are here now and we have a task for you Captain" Alex seemed shocked.
"A task sir? The Diamond's still in repairs and we've only just got back" Alex said but the Admiral raised his hand
"Alex I understand the Diamond's status however these orders are from the Director of Special Operations" Alex wiped his face
"The Diamond's repairs?" Alex asked getting cross
"All major repairs will be completed. Your mission Captain it quite interesting" Alex sat up a little as the Admiral passed him the mission PADD
"Meet Dr. Lockdurn with your new XO tommorow the Academy." Alex stood still reading and left. He just finished reading it and then thought he hadn't done anything like this. Heading to reception he turned to the on duty officer
"Could you send a message to the USS Diamond as follows: To Commander Jon and Anderson to report Academy reception tommorow 10:00 hours. Message ends."
Alex knew there was no point going back to England and decided to stay in his office for the night good time to finish some paper work

[Jon Tenjin]

On:

Jon paced over the bridge, his impatience obvious. He wasn't a man who enjoyed sitting, or pacing around aimlessly, but with the Cap'n gone, his place was on the bridge. He almost, ALMOST cheered when the orders for him to meet the Captain tomorrow at the academy, before he realized that they were probably just going to be sitting around listening to a bunch of people talk.

Off:

[Alex Ream]

Alex woke up early and meet Norah and Jon at reception
"Morning Commander" Alex said smiling "I'm glad to report this isn't some lectuer. This is business and we have orders" before Norah and Jon could go in outrage Alex simply said
"I know. We are meeting a Starfleet Archaeologist Dr Lockdurn. No idea what about though." Alex lead them to the confrence room
"Enjoying some leave I hope? Been up to much?"
