@<SB Ops>COM: CO: Starbase 492 to Scimitar CO...

Host CO_Winters says:
COM: 492: Go ahead.

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
::is operating on the CTO::

Host CO_Winters says:
:: walks to the console on his desk ::

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
::walks along the corridor that joins his quarters to the turbolift, sighing slightly at their delayed departure::

Host Kevin says:
@<SB Ops>Com: CO: Captain, I’m afraid your break is over, the scimitar is to leave ASAP on a pick up

CSO_Ens_Ahkileez says:
::sends out another notice to the station security and locks down the consoles::

Host XO_LtCmdr_Black says:
::pushes the door chime::

Host CO_Winters says:
Com: 492: One moment, my XO is at the door.

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
::gets into the Turbolift, smiling at the crew already in there, he notices for once in four weeks none of the are Starbase crew::

Host CO_Winters says:
*XO* Enter.

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
TL: Bridge.

Host Kevin says:
@<SB Ops>:: waits::

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
::feels the Turbolift accelerate and straightens out his uniform::

Host XO_LtCmdr_Black says:
::hears the CO's comment and enters the readyroom::  CO: The latest status reports, Sir..  ::sees the active console on the CO's Desk::  Am I interrupting anything, Sir...?

Host CO_Winters says:
XO: New orders from the Starbase. :: motions him over ::

Host CO_Winters says:
COM: 492: Go ahead.

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
::steps out of the TL as the Turbolift stops, and looks at the Tactical console with a raised eyebrow:: Self: No Lt.Cmdr Rogers...

Host XO_LtCmdr_Black says:
::nods at the CO and moves to the CO's desk::

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
::makes a mental note to check in the Starbase infirmary::

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
::Continues along to his station::

CSO_Ens_Ahkileez says:
::takes a left at the end of the corridor and waits on the lift before stepping in:: TL: Bridge.

CNS_tr`Loris says:
::waits while the MO checks him over::

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
::finds out that the chemical that dissolved the surrounding of the chills is pure poison and try's to find something to stop it::

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
MO1: Get me that tricorder

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
::looks around the bridge and sees no one else... 4 minutes until Alpha watch starts::

Host Kevin says:
@<SB Ops> Com: CO/XO: you are to rendezvous with a galarian class short cruiser where you will take aboard a passenger, after doing so you are to go to rigel 7 at best possible speed

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
::gets up and walks tot he replicator, and then orders a tea with milk and sugar::

CNS_tr`Loris says:
<MO> CNS: Looks like you're pretty much over the Romulan flu.

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
<MO1> CMO: Yes sir ::runs to the desk to get the tricoder::

Host CO_Winters says:
COM: 492: What is the nature of this passenger?

CSO_Ens_Ahkileez says:
::looks up as the lift beeps softly and then steps out onto the bridge, making his way around to Science-I::

Host XO_LtCmdr_Black says:
::patiently listens to SB 492's updated directives::

CNS_tr`Loris says:
MO: that's good to hear. So am I excused to go to duty?

Host Kevin says:
@<SB Ops>Com: CO/XO:I don't have that information Captain

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
::gets the tricoder from the MO and starts scanning::

Host CO_Winters says:
:: looks at the XO :: COM: 492: And I suppose that is all the useful information that you have?

Host XO_LtCmdr_Black says:
::gives the CO a doubtful look::  Self: Great....I do hope this isn't another ghost chase or something...

Host Kevin says:
@<SB Ops>Com: CO/XO: That’s an affirmative captain, all I know is the station CO just finished a priority one comm. with SFC.. and then gave this order

CSO_Ens_Ahkileez says:
::activates the console and begins prelim diagnostics::

CNS_tr`Loris says:
<MO> CNS: Yes. just check back at the end of your shift for a flue shot. ::mumbles:; as useless as that may be.

Host CO_Winters says:
COMM: 492: If that is all...

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
Self: The CTO heart rate is dropping, brain function decreased by 19% and respiratory function down 16%. Not good, not good

Host Kevin says:
@<SB Ops>Com: CO/XO: It is Captain. sorry. good luck.  492 out

Host CO_Winters says:
COMM: 492: Scimitar Out.

Host CO_Winters says:
XO: Have the Counsellor find some information on the Galarians. Have him make himself an expert and have the FCO plot a course to the rendezvous coordinates.

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
MO2: Contact the CO of the scimitar let him know the status of the CTO

Host XO_LtCmdr_Black says:
::smile faintly::  Self: Nice...  CO: Aye, Captain...

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
<MO2>CMO: Aye Sir ::tabs his commbadge:: *CO*: MO2 To CO_winters.

CSO_Ens_Ahkileez says:
::brings sensors online to test their attenuation::

Host XO_LtCmdr_Black says:
::lays the PADD with the status report on the CO's Desk, then heads out of the readyroom::

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
::walks back to his station past the SO::

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
::Tries to save the CTO and the Child::

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
CSO: Morning Ensign.

Host CO_Winters says:
*MO2* Go ahead.

CNS_tr`Loris says:
::gets off the biobed and heads for his quarters to change into his uniform quickly before showing up for duty::

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
::takes his seat at the front of the bridge and sighs, wondering when the Scimitar's delay will be removed::

Host CO_Winters says:
XO: Have security details posted and have some quarters arranged for our mystery guest.

CSO_Ens_Ahkileez says:
::looks up, but doesn't answer, returning to his diagnostics so he can get them over with::

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
<MO2>*CO*: Sir, I have to tell you that the CTO is not doing well, he is critical but we will do our best

Host CO_Winters says:
*CMO* Very well keep me informed. We are about to leave Starbase. If there is anything you need make sure you have it now.

Host XO_LtCmdr_Black says:
::pauses for moment::  CO: Will do, Sir...  Let's hope this one is worth picking up..  ::grins then enters the bridge::  FCO: Mr More, we got new mission orders

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
XO: And they are, Sir?

CNS_tr`Loris says:
::changes into his uniform, after a quick shower and heads for the turbolift::

Host CO_Winters says:
:: sits down and begins getting more information on the Galarians ::

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
MO1: Get me that hypospray

Host XO_LtCmdr_Black says:
::moves to the FCO's console::  FCO: Our shore leave has been revoked and we are to set course for a Galarian Cruiser where we need to pickup a passenger and escort him to Rigel 7....  You should receive the coordinates from SB 492 in a few minutes...

CNS_tr`Loris says:
::steps off the turbolift onto the bridge::

Host CO_Winters says:
COMM: Scimitar Crew: All Scimitar crew are to report for duty stations. All shore leave has been cancelled as of now. We will be leaving port in five minutes.

CSO_Ens_Ahkileez says:
::looks up at the conversation:: Self: Galarians?

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
XO: Understood. ::nods:: Activating Ops and tactical; Bringing them under the helm's control. Transferring Engineering control to the Science station.

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
ALL: Beginning preliminary engine checks and diagnostics

Host Kevin says:
<SB492> ::transmitting rendezvous coordinates to scimitar secure channel, level 8 clearance required::

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
::injects the contents of the hypospray into the CTO and his functions are returning to 50% of normal::

Host XO_LtCmdr_Black says:
::nods at the FCO and walks to the CSO::  CSO: Status of the science systems, Ensign...?

CSO_Ens_Ahkileez says:
::brings up the initial reports:: XO: Everything seems to be working, so far. Field tests are always the only tests, in my opinion of course.

CNS_tr`Loris says:
::walks around and sits down in his chair::

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
*Engineering* Commander More to ACEO, please begin warp engine start-up routines, and keep me informed on their progress.

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
<MO1>CMO: Sir the poison is nothing we know but it shows some signs of being similar to 4 industrial poisons that I know

Host XO_LtCmdr_Black says:
CSO: Understood...  as soon as we clear the Starbase I want regular sensor sweeps.... just to be on the safe side...

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
*Starbase ops*: Commander More to Ops, please transmit an updated copy of the Scimitar Crew manifest and senior officer roster for the CO's approval.

CSO_Ens_Ahkileez says:
::nods:: XO: I can do that. Anything else, Commander?

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
MO1: Use your know how the find something that will stop the poison.

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
<MO1>CMO: Aye Sir

Host XO_LtCmdr_Black says:
CSO: Mr. More has transferred engineering monitoring control to your station as well...until our CEO is back on duty again....

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
::starts preparing to get the child out of the CTO now that everything is stable::

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
::looks at the computer logs and registers the scimitar crewmembers entering the ship::

CNS_tr`Loris says:
::closes his eyes checking on things mentally::

CSO_Ens_Ahkileez says:
XO: I'll take care of that as well, Commander. ::looks slightly impatient, like he wants to get back to work::

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
*CO* CMO_ Akhran to CO_Winters

Host CO_Winters says:
*CMO* Go ahead.

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
*CO*: We are trying to get the child out of the CTO, at this moment they are both stable

Host Kevin says:
<SB492> Com: Scimitar: Preparing to disconnect umbilicals

CNS_tr`Loris says:
::smiles and makes a mental note about the effects of giving someone jobs outside of their department::

Host CO_Winters says:
*CMO* Very well, I leave it your capable hands. Keep me informed.

Host XO_LtCmdr_Black says:
CSO: Good..  ::smiles at the CSO, then heads to the CNS::  CNS: Counsellor, I want you too look up everything you can on the Galarians, where they come from, what tech level they have, etc..

Host CO_Winters says:
:: walks onto the bridge ::

Host CO_Winters says:
::hears the XO's comments::  CNS: and any reason why we might be transporting them to Rigel.

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
::at the same time takes his laser scalpel and makes a incision in the CTO's abdomen:: *CO* Will do Captain

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
CO: Incoming Comm from SB492. They are about to cut the umbilicals at their end.

CSO_Ens_Ahkileez says:
::prepares to bring the ship back up completely on its own power::

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
::hears a beep and receives co-ordinates from the Starbase for the rendezvous::

Host CO_Winters says:
XO: You have the bridge. Take us out. :: sits in the Captain's chair ::

Host XO_LtCmdr_Black says:
::smiles at the CNS::  CNS: You heard the Captain...   CO: Aye, Captain....

CNS_tr`Loris says:
::opens his eyes:: XO: Galarians and Rigel, yes, sir. ::goes over to one of the stations in the back of the bridge::

CSO_Ens_Ahkileez says:
::looks out at the viewscreen and begins SRS scans with the tactical and science sensors:: XO: Sensors reading well so far, Commander.

Host XO_LtCmdr_Black says:
::moves a bit closer to the viewscreen, taking position behind the FCO::  FCO: Let's get this show on the road...  release the umbilicals and activate Starbase thrusters...

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
CO/XO: Umbilicals released. Activating thrusters.

CNS_tr`Loris says:
::reads over some of the data:: self: Hmm interesting. I wonder what happened.

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
::sees the poison in the CTO bloodstream, looks like a black substance::

Host XO_LtCmdr_Black says:
::nods at the CSO in acknowledgement::

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
*SBops* This is the Scimitar, requesting permission to open the space doors.

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
::feels the familiar thump of umbilicals releasing::

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
<MO2>CMO: Sir the heart beat of the child is rising and it seems to be emitting another chemical

CSO_Ens_Ahkileez says:
::quickly brings the ships EPS systems fully online before even a single light can flicker aboard the Scimitar::

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
MO2: Find out what that chemical is? MO1: How is that research coming?

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
*SBOps* Ops? This is the Scimitar. Refiling request, we're in a hurry.

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
::frowns at the comm::

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
<MO1>CMO: Nothing yet sir but I’ll do my best.

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
Self: Well, I can always *make* them open the doors.

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
All: Ahead on three quarter thrusters.

Host XO_LtCmdr_Black says:
::listens to the FCO's renewed request::  Self: They are taking their time...

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
<MO2>CMO: Sir, the other chemical seems to be neutralizing the poison in the CTO's blood!

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
::activates the viewscreen as the Scimitar glides out from it0s docking space towards the space doors::

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
MO2: Let me see that data ::looks at the data coming in from the scanners and sees that the MO is right::

CSO_Ens_Ahkileez says:
Outloud: ::mutters:: We could always saw a big hole in the side so we can get out.

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
CSO: Are you sure our communications array is online?

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
MO1: Hold that research and help MO2 to collect as much data as you can about the poison and the neutralizer.

Host Kevin says:
ACTION: the Station doors open with plenty of room to spare..

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
::hits it to full thrusters as the space doors open::

Host XO_LtCmdr_Black says:
::grins softly::  CSO: That's a possibility...  ::sees the space doors open::  or not...

CSO_Ens_Ahkileez says:
::watches space appear as a slit and then an opening ahead of them:: XO: Pity.

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
::continues with the operation getting the child out::

Host XO_LtCmdr_Black says:
FCO: Take us out Mr More...nice and gently...   once we have cleared the Starbase set course for the received coordinates...

CNS_tr`Loris says:
::transfers the data to a padd in case he needs it::

Host CO_Winters says:
:: shakes head :: All: No fun today I guess.

Host XO_LtCmdr_Black says:
FCO: Warp factor 8..  ::moves back to his seat, still standing::

CSO_Ens_Ahkileez says:
::looks surprised at the captain's comment but doesn't mention it, returning instead to monitor engineering and sensors;:

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
CO/XO: Course set, and speed set.

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
::sees that the child is in some sort of sac. and that reminds him of a kitten giving birth::

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
CO/XO: Permission to engage?

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
::the sac seems to be connected to the CTO at 3 points; blood in, blood out and the other seems to have no purpose::

Host CO_Winters says:
FCO: Engage.

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
::pushes the Scimitar past the warp barrier once they've cleared the Station::

Host Kevin says:
ACTION: the Scimitar jumps into warp and aside from a minor vibration as it passes warp 6.8 there are no problems

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
::takes the scalpel and cuts out the connection that is no use::

Host XO_LtCmdr_Black says:
::sits down in his seat::

CSO_Ens_Ahkileez says:
::sees the flicker as they pass the Einstein boundary:: FCO: Engines are holding steady so far.

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
CSO: Excellent.

CNS_tr`Loris says:
::gulps for no reason as he feels the minor vibration::

Host CO_Winters says:
CNS: What have you found on the Galarians?

Host XO_LtCmdr_Black says:
::accesses his console and sends Operations a request to prepare some quarters for their "guest"::

CSO_Ens_Ahkileez says:
::keeps one eye on the engineering readouts as he sets up the computer to start running rotating LRS and SRS scans::

CNS_tr`Loris says:
CO: Federation level technology. They are somewhat the isolationists. and 48 years ago they closed their borders to any space travel due to an epidemic on one of their colonies.

FCO_LtCmdr_More says:
CO: ETA to rendezvous is 83 minutes.

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
::the CTO brain functions drop to 18%:: MO1: Get me that Cortical stimulator

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
::sees to it that the other two connection are tied of very good and starts cutting the to::

Host CO_Winters says:
CNS: What sort of epidemic?

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
::takes the sac out of the CTO and the child begins to struggle::

CNS_tr`Loris says:
CO: Doesn't really say. though there is a note that it's rumoured to have affected all the Galarians.

Host XO_LtCmdr_Black says:
::listens to the CNS's update on the Galarians, memorising it::

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
<MO1>::gets the cortical stimulator in place

Host CO_Winters says:
CNS: Very well.

CNS_tr`Loris says:
CO: As for the Rigelian connection they have their embassy to the Federation there.

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
::cuts open the sac and a oozy whitish sticky substance comes out::

Host CO_Winters says:
XO: Have the Chief Medical Officer isolate the Galarians quarters from the rest of this ship. I want him beamed into there with no contact with the Scimitar at all. Just in case this epidemic is still on going.

Host CO_Winters says:
CNS: Hopefully this means we can look forward to re-opening communications with them.

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
<MO1>CMO: Sir CTO's brain functions stabilising at 12.453%

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
::gets the ooze of him and puts the child on a biobed::

Host XO_LtCmdr_Black says:
CO: Understood, Captain... seems like a wise precaution...  might be good to ask them for some background information about this epidemic as well...

CNS_tr`Loris says:
CO: Yeah or they could be closing it down indefinitely which could be a bad sign.

Host CO_Winters says:
XO: Yes, was going to speak to our guest before he is beamed aboard.

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
::the child is that of normal Human size but it has leathery skin:: MO1: Thank you Ensign, keep an eye on him.

Host XO_LtCmdr_Black says:
::nods at the CO, then moves to the back of the bridge, accessing the environmental controls of the VIP Quarters::

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
MO2: Close the CTO up and check if there is anything in his body that should not be there.

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
::the child shows a series of small, bony, spikes at each of his elbows, shoulders, cranial ridge and spine::

Host XO_LtCmdr_Black says:
*CMO*: Black to Akhran, Doctor, we will be taking on a passenger once we reach the rendezvous coordinates....  considering the background of our passenger I would like you to isolate the assigned quarters from the rest of the ship, putting it in quarantine...
CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
Self: the closed to this child is a dragon

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
*XO* Yes sir, by the way tell the Captain that the CTO is stable and the child has been removed

Host XO_LtCmdr_Black says:
*CMO*: Understood, good to hear that....  further, when we transport our passenger directly to his quarters I want you to monitor the transporter's biofilters and see if you can get additional information on this epidemic....

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
<MO1>CMO: The CTO's functions are returning to normal sir

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
MO1: Thank you ::looks at his uniform finding it covert with ....... ::

CMO_LtJG_Akhran says:
Self: everything seems to be getting back to normal, lets hope it stays that way
