Callum was stood in front of Admiral Malloway he was thinking and then his eyes widened with a though the Admiral then reached out and snatched a PADD from an officer that was walking by he then wiped its contents and began putting in data while speaking to Callum the Admiral said "Lieutenant Commander Jackson, you are hereby permitted TEMPORARY flight with the Majesty during this crisis. I am assigning crewmen to your vital areas but you WILL be on a skeleton crew. Get your ship out there." The Admiral then thrust the PADD into Callum's hands with the orders on it for docking control to receive.  The Admiral then said "And take these Cadets with you, they could be useful." The Admiral then turned to the cadets that were there watching him and said "cadets, you are with Lieutenant Commander Jackson, get to you stations on the USS Majesty, Galaxy Class and for the time being until this is over he is your direct Commanding Officer" The Admiral then looked at Callum and said "your primary objective is to act as defence to the Starbase, the majority of our resources went to the gateway so both Thrinacia and Majesty will need each other; us with limited resources, you with limited crew Dismissed!" He barked the Admiral then turned back to the front of the deck as an officer approached him.

Just as Callum was about to speak to the Cadets he got a message through the COMM system =/\= Ensign Jackson to Lieutenant Commander Jackson I am heading to the ship now sir I will prep sick bay in case of an emergency is there anything else you want me to do=/\= he then tapped is own COMM badge and said =/\= yes bring the ship to red alert and keep the shields and weapons offline and beam me and the cadets aboard now but beam me directly to the bridge we are heading out=/\=  Callum then turned to the cadets and said "when we get aboard the ship get to your stations immediately as I would like to head out straight away" they then all disappeared in the normal transporter fashion.

Callum re-materialised on the bridge he then looked at the centre chair walked up to it and stood there for a minute. The turbo lift doors then opened which made Callum jump he looked up and saw the cadets stood there, he then said "Welcome aboard please take your stations" The cadets then nodded an approval and took their stations.  Callum then said to them all "I am Lieutenant Commander Callum Jackson hopefully at some point in this mission we will all get to know each other" He then looked over at the helm station and said "open a channel with docking control" The cadet on the helm station then responded with "yes sir channel open" Callum then went on to say "docking control this is Lieutenant Commander Callum Jackson, Commanding Officer USS Majesty we have been temporarily given clearance to take the ship out. We are heading out now" Docking Control then responded with "understood Majesty you are cleared to head out Docking Control out" Callum then said "We are heading out now Jackson out" he then signalled that he wanted the COMM channel closed the Cadet then responded "Channel closed sir".

The helm then reported "we have cleared the outer section of the Starbase" Callum ordered "Raise shields, charge weapons, load torpedo bays" The Cadet on the Tactical station then responded "aye sir shields up weapons are charging now forward and aft torpedo bays loaded sir" Callum then responded with "brilliant. Now open a COMM channel with all ships and the Starbase and Helm hold a defensive posture in front of the Starbase facing the Cardassian ships that are approaching" Callum then asked "Please open a ship wide channel again" The cadet again responded "Channel open sir" Callum then sat down in his chair and said =/\= Jackson to all hands all decks prepare your stations for battle we have Cardassian war ships approaching our main priority is to protect the Starbase.
