Sweet Child o' Time #1&2 - "The Search"

(OOC: No, your eyes are not decieving you, we are switching mission in what appears to be Mid-Mission. However this new mission is actually the wrap up of the former. Basically meaning us being left with the Carnage. So New Mission Title!!! Be Aware!)

-={On}=- [Main Ops, Starbase Ronin]

Caelen stepped out of the turbolift again, he had told Ryylar what he had to say and now it was all up to him. He looked around main operations and spotted Kristiana "Commander Petrova..." he tried to get her attention "...it's time"

"Time, Sir ?" she was half preoccupied with all sorts of PADDs and reports of critical situations, damage reports and casualty reports after the Sickbay explosion.

"I don't like to leave you in these kind of situations, Commander..." Caelen added, feeling really sorry that he had to leave them. But this was something he had to do and Kris had understood earlier "...I'm going to look for my girl"

This caused her to pause a moment, glancing at him. ".. Alright. I'll keep the base in one piece, Sir. You just concentrate on finding her."

"You better..." Caelen was able to bring up a grin, but he didn't mean it. He walked closer to his second in command "...there is just one more thing..." he looked in her eyes, contemplating what he had to tell her about Ryylar "...I've just checked up on the Chief of Security... so you don't need to..." he looked intently in her eyes "...understood?"

"Understood, Sir." was her ready response, and her only regret was that she couldn't be there, to ... 'assist' Ryylar in his ... 'interrogation'. But she had enough work ahead of her in maintaining the Starbase and working to solve the current crisis.

"You have my utmost confidence Commander..." Caelen then stated loud enough for everyone in Ops to hear it "...I'll be back in time for the ceremony..." he then spoke seriously, audibly hurt by the notion that there would be a ceremony. "...You have the Base Commander" with a strong nod he turned and walked back into the Turbolift.

"... Take care, Sir." She sighed softly, looking after Caelen. What could she say at a moment like this? What would be appropriate? 'Take care' was the only thing that came to mind, and it sounded pathetically weak, to her.

The doors closed in front of Caelen and he sighed a bit "Transporter room one" he ordered the lift before pressing his combadge =/\= Ensign Bradbury, please report to Transporter room one, I'm going to need your expertise =/\=
