<USS Avalon> Defense Council

Defense Council
By Ambassador Dawson Praz
 
Dawson stood in the Embassy looking out upon the gardens.  One of his aides 
came in, and stopped.  Pausing for a second, then finally clearing his throat.
 
Dawson turned, âFinally, what is the word on the Klingons?â
 
âThis isnât about the Klingons sir, this is about Captain Ketchum.â
 
Dawson looked at him, and cocked his head, âWhat about him?â
 
âIt appears that he is going to be court-martialed at Starbase 12.  He has 
also requested you to represent him.â
 
âCourt-martialâ, he shook his head.  âWhen is the time-frame that we can 
leave?â
 
âI can have a shuttle waiting for you to leave after the next Council Meeting.
â
 
âThat will suffice.  Make Tess aware that we are going to Starbase 12, for a 
few days, she will want to see her father, I am sure.â
 
âUnderstood, Sirâ, turning he walked away, preparing the staff to pack and 
other preparations.
 
Dawson walked over to a console, and prepared a message to Ambassador Jaâ
Reth, âShy, I regret that due to other unforeseen issues, I will not be able 
to 
come visit your Embassy.  Hopefully, when I return, we can get together and 
discuss politics.  Dawson.â
 
As soon as he finished the message and sent it, one came in encrypted from 
JAG with the information about the trial, and all pertinent information, 
including interviews and display files.  
 
He unencrypted them and read through them, âWhat have you done, Keith, what 
have you done.â
