McJohn sat in the briefing room staring at a datapad, the meeting didn't start for amother 10 miniutes but since he'd nothing else to do at the moment he had arived early. He stared at the pad looking for the morning agenda, there was only one word... Clasified. McJohn pondered what this could mean for a few miniutes before the large door of the briefing room slid open and Dr Amida Wowbagger stepped through. 
"Hello there" he said nourvously as he sat down. "Am I early?". McJohn simply nodded before returning his attention back to his datapad, trying to access another file which from the looks of it was password protected. "I left my quarters early, i'm new here you see and I was worried that I wouldnt be able to find this place". McJohn  didnt take any notice, he was more concerned that his security clearence was being rejected by the pad.
It didnt take long before the other department heads started wondering in, starting with Kochanski. strolling in, and dumping himself in a chair then putting his feet up on top of the briefing table before investigating another datapad.
"Hey! this things broken" he said as he realised it wouldnt let him view the files.
"They all are." McJohn repied as he gave up and slammed his pad on the desk. A few miniutes later the others started to file in, all nursing some kind of injury from the night before the last two of them being Alotta and Jay.
"You didnt have to deck him one, I am a space ship captain I can look after myself!" She yelled at him.
"Well what else am I meant to do when a drunk tries to chat up my wife!" He yelled back trying to match her volume (not easy with alotta).   
"Oh, so this is it... MALE PRIDE!!!!" The couple both stopped as they realised that the entire senior staff were sitting their watching, and then realised that CK was taking bets (5 to 1 on Alotta by the way). The two of them straightened up and took their seats at the table.
"This morning I recieved a code 1 transmition from Space Core headquarters" began Alotta as she unlocked the datapads. "3 weeks ago the SSS Esperanto a science vessal on a long range mission detected a very large energy explosion within hymonptrain space, more precicly within system ZX-981."
"ZX-981?" asked Jay, "If I remember right thats the suspected hymie homeworld."
"Your correct commander." She replied trying to keep an air of professionalism even though they were married. "Space Core command believes that th hymies are testing a new weapon." She noticed that the new science officer had stuck his hand in the air as if he was in a classroom.
"Captain, if your right why would the hymies be testing this weapon so close to their home planet?" He asked.
"Thats what we're going to find out" she replied. Everyones attention perked at this point.
"Wait a miniute," asked Keto. "You dont mean that we're taking this ship into the centre of hymie space do you!"
"Yes I do Doctor!" she responded. "It will take at least a week for to get any otherships there but using the wormhole drive we'll be there in less than an hour. Any objections?" Of course no-one was going to object to Alotta, especially when she was in this kind of mood. She looked around the briefing table as her senior officers shrunk back into their seats.
"Phil I want all security officers on duty within 20 miniutes, Kochanski and Jay I want all fighters and pilots ready too." She looked at the others once again. "Well..... MOVE!!!"
