Setting: NEW ALEXANDRIA, Section I-1, A dark room
Stardate: 30152.1250

Perfect absolute darkness. That was the one and only way to describe the inside of this location, a single room hidden deep inside the NEW ALEXANDRIA complex, and one which only a select few knew the existence of as well as its content.

Stardate: 30152.1215

He could have been anywhere on the cruise ship, but after what had happened by the pool, the OPS officer had thought it best to lay low and take it easy for a little while.  The Doctor of the MASQUERADE DREAMS had prescribed rest after having given him a clean bill of health, no concussion having been found despite the force of the blow and how difficult it had been f...

Stardate: 30152.1200

The chairs in this section of the MASQUERADE DREAMS had been laid out in neat little rows to provide passengers with the best possible view of the stars which hung in the emptiness of space ahead of the Risian Cruise Liner.  The sight had been a remarkable one, but to the acting ExO / ILO it had been nothing that she had not ...

"Ya'Han, is everything alright?" Eve Dalziel asked as the Native American looked upon her, his head ever so slightly tilted to one side.  As much as Erik might have been concerned for the well being of the woman, it had not been in him to ask so openly.  Luckily ...

Stardate: 30152.0900

It had roughly been twenty minutes since the MASQUERADE DREAMS' Doctor had started his journey back to the Infirmary with a passenger who had suffered a 'nasty' bump on the head.  Thanks to the efforts of Ensign Stark to slow the Doctor down combined with the delay tactics used by Ensign T'Leia, the simple trip had so far tak...

Stardate: 30152.0850

The Shillian Scientist stood outside of the infirmary, her arms loosely crossed over her chest while a pensive expression quietly danced on her features.  How absolutely wonderful would it have been to have the renowned Doctor Professor Kor-Kova give a lecture on her theories about parallel universes and their shared quantum signatures?  To be...

Stardate: 30152.0845

With the recital over an hour away, the acting ExO / ILO knew that she had ample time to check on Ensign Stark and his improvised diversionary tactic.  Shar'El had not been surprised that the Operations Officer had stepped forward when the call for help was made, especially given that it directly dealt with the ANUBIS' Chief of Security.

As much as Ensign S...

He could see so many wonderful stars twinkling all around him.  As a Starfleet officer this should not have been such an oddity, even if he had been undercover. The problem was that the OPS officer had not been looking up into the night's sky but rather at the faces of people staring down at him as he laid flat on his back.

"Do not try to get up."

Jayson had no idea who had said this...

With each passing minute more and more people emerged from their rooms to embrace the new day on board the luxury cruise liner, and the raven haired woman had decided to be amongst them.  With Ensign Mizore and Ensign Ya'Han heading to the ship's infirmary, thanks to whatever trick Lt. Commander Maya had come up with, the Acti...

Blue. Red. Green. Black. White. Gold. Silver. So many colors and those had only been the ladies' hair.  When adding the range of skin tones, the combination had been nearly infinite.  Of course there had been the bikinis which added a whole different level with their suggestive cuts and colored designs.

Jayson had found a seat near the pool that gave him an unobstructed view o...

"ANI," the acting ExO / ILO said as she stood in front of the mirror located in her room.

The steaming cup of pureed gree-worm sat on the table held tightly in his small greedy hands as his shifty tired eyes wandered about the room without any actual purpose.  Rule of Acquisition number 22 clearly stated that 'A wise man can hear profit in the wind,' which had been the reason that had led him to book a three week Risian cruise getaway, his...

Setting: MASQUERADE DREAMS, Outer walkway
Stardate: 30152.0725

He had been casually walking along the outer walkways of the ship since he had waken from his dream.  The images and sensations had been real enough to make sure that he would not be able to get back to sleep anytime soon.  So in the hopes of clearing in mind, the OPS officer went for a walk about the luxury cruise liner.

The reason for his stroll about the ship might have been troubl...

Although she had been an Engineer, Sonja moved with the speed and skill of a trained Intel Operative as she ducked behind one of the vertical conduits to better observe whoever or whatever had emerged from the hidden crawlspace.  The redhead had made a point to memorize the schematics of the MASQUERADE DREAMS, so it was with a great deal of surpr...

He studied her through the night without making a sound, scared that his simple breathing would wake her.  She appeared so peaceful there on top of the bed.

On the Skydome deck Jayson had thought that this woman had been Ya'Han.  The mistake had been an easy one to understand given just how much the two of them looked alike.  The unknown woman had returned to his room ...

She had told him her name several times by now but Jayson could not remember it.  His mind had been in a place further than the stars that could be seen through the large clear dome over their heads.  It was true that he had not truly known Ya'Han, but to suddenly discover that she was a member of some royal family had been a difficult reality for him to grasp.

At first he could not und...

The crew had been tasked with gathering general Intel while onboard the MASQUERADE DREAMS, but Shar'El suspected that Admiral Koniki had wanted to take this opportunity to give the crew a break while performing some remote character evaluations and reviews.  At least that had been the ILO's thoughts as she shed off the ball dress that she had w...
