NOTE 1: Major General William "Bill" Samuels (looks like the rapper and actor Ice-T), is the Commander of the expedition that'll be going through the supergate. His Flagship is the Dakara, which is 3,000 meters in length (see chapter 6 for specs).
NOTE 2: The Colonel of the Daniel Jackson , the AGF's Number One Science Vessel, is Colonel Aiya Merrick, a Calis Female. The 150 scientists and all medical personnel on-board all AGF science vessels are civilians. The Daniel Jackson is nothing but an AGF Heavy Battle Cruiser with a complete science suite with the same crew compliment (see chapter 6 for specs).
NOTE 3: Federation Captain Terri Sanders looks like Halle Berry, except with shoulder length hair.
Admiral's Rean and Tevan expressions remained passive – when the woman who came late – entered the room. They know who she is.
General Gabriel knew his gut was right about Admiral William Ross. He'd been informed about the conspiracy within the Federation and Starfleet a week prior and he's still reading the material and watching the recordings that were given to him, which is considerable. To say he was shocked is an understatement. He didn't realized how naive the Federation and Starfleet were, until now.
"He doesn't like Andorian's, Admiral Tevan," General Wolfe said to him after the recording finished.
"No he doesn't," he replied with a calmness that belied what he's really feeling.
"I wonder why?" Brennan asked.
"We buffoons at Starfleet are going to find out," Rean answered with a straight face.
The General's smiled and felt sorry for the man.
"They seemed awfully interested in learning about us," Chow said with a stoic expression.
"You're an unknown to them and they hate not knowing, as we've just learned," Tevan replied.
"The Admiral is right – we're not fools," General Argo said.
"What is Section 31?" Secretary Cannon asked.
"Section 31 refers to Chapter 14, Section 31 of the Federation Charter; which allows for bending the rules in times of extraordinary threats," Rean answered.
"It's vague and needs to be modified," Wolfe said.
"The founding members of Section 31 were retired Starfleet Security Officers who were obsessed with the safety and security of the Federation and recruited others onboard our vessels to be their eyes and ears for any external threats to the Federation,." Rean told them, who did his own homework.
"Now they have tentacles everywhere and answer to no one; and do as they damn well please, including killing anyone who gets in their way. You have Federation citizens running a rogue organization and spying on all of you. They have all your codes and much of your highly sensitive and classified intelligence. They, in effect, are running the Federation and they're buried deep within the Federation and Starfleet. Your biggest threat has always been internal Admirals," General Argo told them. Argo was aghast when he read the intelligence coming the those probes.
"It was Starfleet who gave them that power when your Officers agreed to work for them in the beginning," Chow said.
"You have the floor Admiral Rean," Wolfe said.
Admiral Rean told them his plan and what he needs from the AGF.

"You're not going to catch all of them and they're going to run," Secretary Cannon said to Rean, after dinner.
"And I'm going to make sure they keep running," he replied.
"This is going to be a nightmare when this comes out," Chow said knowing the ramifications were going to be beyond what even he can image.
"The President wants everything laid bare for everyone to see and I agree with her," Rean replied.
They didn't asked what will happened to the Starfleet Officer's or enlisted personnel who unknowingly, or, under duress, worked for Section 31. Everyone in the room knew that a few of those Officers will be sent to backwaters for the rest of their careers, with no chance of promotion; while others will quietly resign and Starfleet will always keep them within sensor range. A few will get on with their careers, if their stories check out, but not many; and the enlisted personnel will be forced to resign. They know what will happened to the Starfleet Officers and enlisted personnel who knowingly betrayed their oaths. As for the civilians involved, they'll only get what they deserve.
"When you do this Admiral, you're going to stand in the ashes of the institution you love above all others – Starfleet," Wolfe told them.
"Starfleet was in ashes when I accepted this position General. The President and many of the Federation Council Members want changes made within Starfleet," Rean said.
The Dominion, the Generals thought.
Secretary Cannon asked Admiral Tevan about the Andorian's and their history.

General Wolfe's Office - The Next Morning
"You were right about Admiral Ross, Dan," Wolfe said after they saw everyone off through the stargate earlier that morning.
"The Admiral is a traitor," Gabriel replied.
"They own him Dan, and they have since the Dominion War," she said.
"The Admiral, along with many others, think Section 31 are the only ones who can really protect them, and they can do what Starfleet can't. I've come to realize that the Federation doesn't like dealing with unpleasant matters," Argo told them.
"Section 31 does all the dirty work while everyone else looks away," Gabriel said getting to the heart of the matter.
"They want clean hands Dan and don't want to appear like the rest of us," Argo replied, knowing better after reading the files.
"That war shook the Federation to its very core and in many cases, their principles went right out the window," Gabriel told them.
"Desperate men do desperate things, and they were very, very desperate," Wolfe said.
"They had to get their hands dirty and they did," Argo replied. "That proves they're no better than the rest of us, and they never were."
"They have a real mess on their hands Deborah and I don't pity anyone who's involved," Gabriel said.
"I'm glad I'm not in their shoes," she replied.

Federation Space - Avalon System - Terra - One Day Later
Admiral Tevan ordered Rear Admiral Savin to report to his office, and told him he'll be in an important conference for a week.
When Admiral Savin arrived at the Starbase he stowed his belongings in his temporary quarters and headed to Admiral Tevan's office.
"Come in," Tevan said when he heard the bell.
"Admiral Savin reporting sirs," he said standing at attention when he saw Admiral Rean sitting across from Admiral Tevan.
"At ease Admiral and have a seat," Tevan said pointing to the chair next to Admiral Rean.
"Aye sir," Savin replied. "Sir," he said to Rean.
"Admiral," he replied.
"Here are the schematics to your new ship, which is currently being constructed at a secret hanger at Alpha Planitia," Tevan told Savin, and slid a padd across his desk.
Savin picked up the padd. "She's a beautiful ship sir," he said after reading the schematics of his new Falcon Class star ship.
"I thought you'd like it," Rean said, and handed him another padd.
Savin watched the recording of the conversation between Admiral Ross and the bald headed man. His antennas twitched and he became angry.
"Who is he?" Savin asked still angry.
Tevan then told the tale of a great conspiracy within the Federation and Starfleet.
"This is want I want you to do Admiral...," Rean ordered, and handed Savin a few more padds.
"You're only to read those padds in my private conference room," Tevan told him. "Dismissed."
"Aye sir," Savin said.
Tevan got up from his chair and showed Savin to his private conference room and sealed the room.
"Show we go to the hanger," Rean said.
"Aye sir," Tevan replied.

When 3 people beamed into the transporter room near the hanger, Vice Admiral Narg was surprised to see Admiral Rean and stood at attention.
"At ease Admiral," Rean said. "Is everyone ready to go?"
"Aye sir," Narg answered, and showed Rean and Tevan to a special room.
Admiral's Narg and Tala then walked into the hanger.
Rean and Tevan watched as Tala spoke to Captain's Jarat Reitan and Porta Rez and heard her wish them good luck. The Safari is Captain Porta's ship and the Azores is Captain Reitan's ship, which the Nova Corporation named. The Safari will haul freight in the Tory System and the Azores will haul freight in the Vega system. The Nova Corporation gave each crew member money and taught them how to use and count it, and they'll also receive wages every month. The Nova Corporation also trained them in certain procedures, which shall remain classified. Rosie will be Captain's Reitan's guide in the Vega System and Max will be Captain's Porta's guide in the Tory System.
Both ships have a cloak and the technology to scan for cloaks.

"Cloak the ship Lieutenant," Porta said to his Chief Engineer when he sat in his seat.
"Aye sir," Hara replied, and the Safari cloaked.
"Take us out helm," he ordered.
"Aye sir," Lt. jg Marta Quinn replied, and engaged the thrusters. Marta Quinn is Captain Quinn's cousin.
Captain Reitan gave the same orders to his Chief Engineer and helm.
No one saw the Safari or the Azores leave the hanger.
Admiral's Narg and Tala walked back to the transporter room.
"Admiral Tevan will have new orders for you in a few weeks, which will be classified," Rean told Narg.
"Aye sir," he replied, and transported the Admiral's back to Admiral Tevan's private transporter room near his office.

SSC Center - Colorado
Only Admiral's Toddman and Grax were in the gate room when Admiral Rean walked through the stargate from Terra; and Admiral Toddman beamed Admiral Rean back to his private transporter room across from his office.
Later that evening Colonel Kavel and his Marines returned to Earth from Terra.

Everyone onboard the Andor stayed out of Admiral Savin's way when he returned, after seeing the enraged look on his race.
The Andorian lover is at war, and they don't stand a change against him, Savin thought. He barricaded himself in his ready room and went over the schematics of his new ship – which he already loves.

Starfleet Command - Admiral Rean's Private Conference Room - Two Days Later
Present: Admiral's Rean, Chin, Stokes and Jamison
"That son-of-a-bitch," Stokes said after seeing the recordings.
"Admiral Ross gave classified AGF and Starfleet intelligence to a Federation civilian, which is a treasonable offense," Jamison told them with an unreadable expression on his face.
"He's going to pay," Chin said, and had the expression of 'Take No Prisoner's Dorothy' on her face.
"Do we know who they are?" Rean asked.
"Yes," Jamison answered and handed Rean and Chin a padd with the names, dates and places of birth, and any and all information Starfleet and the Federation has on the traitors. Admiral Stokes already had a padd in front of him.
After reading his padd Admiral Rean now knows who the bald headed man is, and why everyone deferred to him.
Each Federation citizen has their DNA forwarded to the Federation when they're born, and a copy of their DNA is also inserted in their birth records. Very few people in the Federation know that only a few people in the Federation, Starfleet Intelligence and Security had access to certain information regarding all Federation citizens; which shall remain classified. When Admiral's Jamison and Stokes methodically cross-checked that information, they found the answers they were seeking. These traitors also didn't know that Admiral Jamison is a tenacious bulldog, and he's going to get them – no matter the cost.

Admiral Rean's Office - One Month Later
"How was Admiral Narg's trip?" Rean asked Tevan when he walked into his office with his monthly report.
"His report is with the others," Tevan answered, and handed Rean a padd..
"Let's go over the list of candidates for the positions of Captain and First Officers for the ships going through the Supergate. These officers and crew members will be permanently stationed on Terra and they will be chosen from ever part of the Federation, including the Avalon system. I was thinking about a Rear Admiral lower-half commanding the Starfleet ships going through the supergate; however, after talking to General Chow, I changed my mind and I'm going to promote Captain Gianni to Fleet Captain." Rean told Tevan. Admiral Rean liked that the Captain is an excellent strategist, like himself.
"Good choice, but he's not going to like it," Tevan said reading the padd Jaz handed him.
"He goes where Starfleet sends him," Rean replied.
"Yes we do," Tevan said with a smile. "I think Commander Mazar (El-Aurian) should be promoted to Captain and given command one of the ships going to through the Supergate."
Rean read Mazar's service record and agreed with his friend."Commander Terri Sanders should also be promoted to Captain and be given command of the other ship," Rean told him.
Admiral Tevan read about her tactics during the war, and even he was impressed.
"Lieutenant Commander Zi-Yalix (Efrosian Male) should be promoted to Commander," Rean said.
"Lieutenant Commander Sari Indira (from India) should also be promoted to Commander," Tevan told Rean after studying her service record.
Rean did the same and read how she'd proven herself over and over again during the war and he agreed. She's also an excellent tactician.
Lt. Commander Sabin Ral (Betazoid Male) should also be promoted to Commander," Tevan said.
Rean scrolled down his padd and read Commander Ral's service record and is impressed with his strategic ability and again agreed with Tevan. "The Captains will pick the rest of their staffs and I want a Lieutenant Commander as Chief Engineer on the lead vessel and one of the engineers who worked on the Transwarp Project as Second-in-Command of Engineering on that vessel. I also want one of the Lieutenant's who worked on the Project as Chief Engineer on the other two vessels; and Captain Estahahn's Flagship will be one of the new Defiant's," Rean Told him.
"Aye sir," Tevan said.
"Major General William Samuels will lead the expedition through the Supergate and he'll be in command of the entire expedition. His Flagship is the Dakara and his First Officer is Brigadier General Hannah Moss and his Second Officer is Colonel Ista (Jaffa female). The Commander of the AGF science vessel, the Daniel Jackson, is Colonel Aiya Merrick, a Calis female. They'll be a total of 28 ships going through the Supergate, including the three Starfleet vessels. Three of those vessels will be their large freighters, which will carry extra food and supplies and the AGF suggested that Starfleet do the same, and I agreed. They're provide the 4th freighter and Starfleet Security will guard our food and supplies on that freighter. The Daniel Jackson will have 150 civilian scientists on-board and General Chow suggested that their counterparts meet ours before they leave, and the President and I agreed," Rean told him.
"That's a good idea," Tevan said.

Captain Dante Gianni has been teaching at Starfleet Academy since the end of the Dominion War. He was injured when his ship was severely damaged at the Battle at Getha and he spent almost a month at Starbase 371 healing; both physically and mentally. His ex-wife died when the Breen attacked Earth, but his 14 year old twins, a son (Marco) and daughter (Pina) survived the attack and live with him and his parents. Captain Gianni was born and grew up in Rome and is 6'0 tall; has black hair with streaks of gray, brown eyes, medium to heavy build, and he's 46 years old.
When Captain Dante Gianni walked out of Starfleet Command Headquarters, he had an extra pip on his collar. He sat on one of the bench's outside Headquarters and read his orders. He's being transferred to the Avalon System and will be stationed on Terra. His new ship is currently being constructed at Alpha Planitia and will travel through the Supergate and explore the other end of the universe with the AGF. This is why I joined Starfleet, he thought, and went home and told his family.

Lieutenant Henry Xavier cursed his luck. He and his team of Starfleet engineers have been from one installation to another helping with repairs for the past few years. Lieutenant Xavier is 5'9¼" tall, 30 years old, has platinum blond hair, hard blue eyes and a slender to medium build. Some would call him arrogant, but he doesn't care. He was a ship engineer at the beginning of the war and kept his ship, as he thought of it, running on nothing but his imagination and hands. After the war his Commander recommended him for the assignment and he was promoted to full Lieutenant. He and his team are in the Kalandra Sector to see if anything can be savaged from the destroyed Starfleet vessels; and Starfleet sent a ship to recover the dead bodies before he and his team arrived. After it was determined nothing could be savaged from the wreckage, they were off to the next assignment.
A few weeks later Lieutenant Xavier received new orders.

Admiral Janeway's Lab - Three Weeks Later
"Lieutenant Commander Xavier reporting as ordered sir," he said when he entered the lab and walked up to Admiral Janeway.
"At ease Commander. I want to be called either Admiral or ma'am," she said.
"Aye Admiral," he replied
"This is Admiral DeSoto," Janeway said.
"Admiral," he said.
"Commander," he replied.
"Here are your new orders Commander," Janeway said, and handed him a padd.
"I'm the Chief Engineer of the USS Atlas?" he asked with a surprised look on his face after reading the padd.
"Yes Commander, and it's my Flagship," DeSoto answered. "Lieutenant Golwat is Second-in-Command of Engineering and Lieutenant Commander Lyssa Campbell is my Chief of Operation's. You have a lot of catching up to do and they'll help you."
"Here they come now," Janeway said when she saw the two of them walking up to them and made the introductions.
"Dismissed," DeSoto said, and the three of them walked out of the lab.
Admiral DeSoto spends most of his time on his new ship overseeing construction and reading daily reports. When he's not there, he's in his office near Admiral Janeway's office. Admiral DeSoto promoted Lieutenant Lyssa Campbell to Lieutenant Commander when he chose her as he's Operation's Officer after he saw how she performed at the Operations Station on the Pegasus-C.
Admiral Janeway received orders from Admiral Rean to oversee construction of the new Arcadian Class ship that's now being constructed at the San Francisco ship yards. She now spends half her time on-board that vessel overseeing construction and reading daily reports and the other half in her lab or office.
A Fleet of Defiant's are being constructed at Utopia Planitia and a few other Federation shipyards. Two Falcon Class ships are also being constructed at Utopia Planitia, and one will be Admiral Rean's Flagship.
