<<<<<<<<RESUME>>>>>>>>
CIV_Ens_Delar says:
@::looks down at the Tricorder on his belt, almost daring it to bleep and warn him of movement not related to the AT. Looking back up he surveys the dark interior of the Persephone, watching and waiting::
XO_LtCmdr_Xia says:
::She replaces her comm badge onto her duty jacket and straightens her uniform as she rides the turbolift up to the bridge. She does the best to rub the sleep from her eyes as she prepares to arrive on the bridge. The lift slows, and she steps out:: Self: Here goes nothing...
CMO_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::gets up from the command chair and turns to face the tactical officer:: TO: Mister K'Nargh.
EO_Ens_Leasha says:
::is still stuck on the bridge::
SO_Ens_DeLindt says:
CMO: Sir, I have some graphs that you might find useful.  ::relays his graphs to the CMO::
CNS_Ens_tr’Loris says:
So: try scanning outside of the ship instead of the To's vital signs.
CEO_Ens_Duclos says:
::Overseeing level three diagnostics being conducted::
CSO_Lt_Enki says:
::Comes onto the Bridge, and walks to Science holding a PADD with her working rosters on it::
FCO_Lt_Exeter says:
@:: Looking around into darkness:: CO: What we looking for again?
OPS_Lt_Taylor says:
CMO: Aye Transport locked on.
TO_Ens_K’Nargh says:
::just sitting there not scanning, until the rest of the bridge crew leave him alone::
EO_Ens_Leasha says:
TO: So K'nargh how a bout that drink or does you ignoring me mean No
CMO_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
TO: Mister K'Nargh... I'm speaking to you.
CO_Capt_Black says:
@::carefully makes his way into the Persephone's corridor::  AT: We need that information, we'll move to the bridge first....
CTO_Lt_Mesme says:
@::thinks that this is not a good place to be and admires the view... although not the pretty one::
TO_Ens_K’Nargh says:
EO: If you have any blood wine ill take it
XO_LtCmdr_Xia says:
::She stands at the exit of the turbolift and quickly does a scan of the bridge crew. She notes the presence of several of the senior officers, however almost immediately notices that Lt. Commander Varesh is in command. Without a pause she heads to the command circle and looks out towards the viewscreen:: CMO: Commander, report please...
SO_Ens_DeLindt says:
::Switches to his other display::  CNS: Already doing that, Sir
TO_Ens_K’Nargh says:
::looks up at the CMO and gives him the impression he can speak::
CNS_Ens_tr’Loris says:
::thinks this is not going to look good on K"Nargh's evaluation report.
CIV_Ens_Delar says:
@::nods to the CO and follows carefully, keeping his eyes and ears peeled for anything his Tricorder wont detect::
CMO_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::glares at K'Nargh:: TO: Mister K'Nargh, if you cannot fulfill your duties I'll be happy to assign the job to someone else. Unfortunately I cannot do that without the Captain and your department head's permission... so do your job and ignore those "distractions" if you are capable of such an action.
FCO_Lt_Exeter says:
@:CO: you do remember I'm night blind don't ya?
EO_Ens_Leasha says:
TO: I’m not sure I’ve got a stash of that our have to let me check ::grins::
CMO_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
TO: You have been charged with the safety of this ship, so scan the area for Jem'Hadar.
CSO_Lt_Enki says:
::Comes up behind the SO:: SO: Hello, Ensign.  Can you fill me in?
TO_Ens_K’Nargh says:
::gives him an evil look:: CMO: I am fully capable of doing my work why don’t you start doing your work instead of telling me things that I know I have to do, I think there is more important things to do then stand and lecture me
CO_Capt_Black says:
@::glancing at his tricorder he studies the Persephone's Interior::  AT: This way...  ::points to the corridor on their left::  FCO: Well, that's why we have flashlights, Lieutenant... ::grins::
SO_Ens_DeLindt says:
CSO: Certainly Ma'am.  We have an away team on board the Persephone.  Not much else of interest.  ::Shows scans::
CNS_Ens_tr’Loris says:
::closes his eyes and tries to figure out where the Jem Hadar are::
CMO_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
TO: Well, you could have fooled me. While you are acting like a petulant child, there are Jem'Hadar out there, and you seem to not want to do anything about it.
CTO_Lt_Mesme says:
@::takes the rear of the away team, his hairs standing slightly on end and his tail fighting on the inside of his EVA suit, shining his wrist light behind him as they go::
TO_Ens_K’Nargh says:
CMO: If you leave, I’ll do something about it ::smiles::
XO_LtCmdr_Xia says:
::She glances between Ensign K'Nargh and Commander Varesh. Her expression is a cold one, and her disapproval of the situation is quite obvious:: CMO/TO: Gentlemen, please...
EO_Ens_Leasha says:
::Looks back at her consol:; *CEO* leasha to Duclos
TO_Ens_K’Nargh says:
XO: Sorry, Ma`am
FCO_Lt_Exeter says:
@::Follows Black, keeping his flashlight trained on the person in front of him::
CNS_Ens_tr’Loris says:
TO: The Captain left him in charge. ::notices the XO: Until the commander returned.
CSO_Lt_Enki says:
::Nods to the SO, then passes him the PADD:: SO: This is the current duty rosters.  Petty Officer Gerry still hasn't been able to deal with his... issues and work night shift.  Can you fill in either of these days?  ::points to days on the PADD::
CEO_Ens_Duclos says:
*EO* Pierre here, go ahead...
OPS_Lt_Taylor says:
::Glances up::
CIV_Ens_Delar says:
@::continues to follow the CO, checking every shadow twice::
EO_Ens_Leasha says:
*CEO* hey Chief anything you want me to do or stand and try and look busy and then tell you the gossip from the bridge when I eventually find my way back to ME
XO_LtCmdr_Xia says:
::She turns to Varesh, her expression warming up only slightly:: CMO: Now Commander, please. Status report? ::She stands in the command circle, glancing at several of the bridge officers - obviously unimpressed with their lack of professionalism.
CMO_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::raises an eyebrow at K'Nargh, then faces Xia:: XO: Commander... if my orders as pro-tem commanding officer cannot be followed without question, I think there is something wrong with this crew. You have the bridge, ma'am. ::turns to leave:: Ask Mister K'Nargh for your update.
CO_Capt_Black says:
@::glances at his CTO::  CTO: Lieutenant...anything on your sensors...?
SO_Ens_DeLindt says:
CSO: The Wednesday and the Sunday morning would be best for me Ma’am.

@::gives the CO a glance and checks his tri-corder:: CO: Nothing sir...
XO_LtCmdr_Xia says:
::She watches as Varesh head off to leave and gives off a slight sigh as she sits into the command chair. With a loud commanding voice, she speaks up and access her control:: ALL: All departments, full report - now.
CO_Capt_Black says:
@::stops at what appears to be the Persephone's primary JT Access, kneeling down he carefully scans the interior behind the door to be sure::
CMO_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::leans down and transfers the graphs to his office:: XO: Unless you have something for me.. I'll be in my office.
CSO_Lt_Enki says:
::Smiles at the SO:: SO: You make this so easy.  If you have problems with those shifts, or any of your others, please tell me... since I owe you for taking these.
CIV_Ens_Delar says:
@::stops and looks around:: AT: Does the absence of bodies disturb anyone else...?
CO_Capt_Black says:
@::nods back at the CTO::  CTO: Very well...
TO_Ens_K’Nargh says:
XO: Well, I have nothing at the moment, with those distractions I got nothing done ::starts to scan::
XO_LtCmdr_Xia says:
CMO: I will be in contact Commander, thank you. ::She turns back to her display and waits for the reports to come in::
CNS_Ens_tr’Loris says:
::eyes still closed:: XO: Earlier I sensed Jem Hadar minds. I don't know where they are.
CMO_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::gets into the turbolift:: Self: In all my life!
EO_Ens_Leasha says:
::turns a round and watches the event unfold on the bridge waiting for the chief to get back to her ::
SO_Ens_DeLindt says:
CSO: Thank you Ma'am.  Its no trouble, I don't sleep that much anyway.
CEO_Ens_Duclos says:
::Smiles:: *EO* If there's nothing to do up there, I could use some help with checking the JT access locks down here.
CO_Capt_Black says:
@::looks at the green scan and opens the hatch::  AT: From this JT access we need to climb another 4 deck before arriving at the bridge... fellow me but be on your guard....
CIV_Ens_Delar says:
@::adjusts the engineering kit and his back:: CO: Permission to take point, Captain
EO_Ens_Leasha says:
::Eyes Light up and nearly screams with joy:: *CEO* on my way Sir
CTO_Lt_Mesme says:
@::watches some dust drift across the beam from wrist light:: Self: I hate dead ships...
XO_LtCmdr_Xia says:
::She turns towards Lieutenant Enki and Ensign DeLindt, her expression almost demands their full attention and she clears her throat:: CSO/SO: Lieutenant, Ensign, status report...please...
EO_Ens_Leasha says:
XO: permission to leave the bridge ma'am
CNS_Ens_tr’Loris says:
EO: have fun.
CMO_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
~~~CNS: Doran, if you need help to strengthen the search, feel free to call on me.~~~ ::a slight smile in his mental tone::
FCO_Lt_Exeter says:
@::follows Brian and softly hums:: self: I wanna get out of this place, if it's the last thing I'll ever do!
CO_Capt_Black says:
@::nods at the CIV::  CIV: Permission granted, but keep a high pace...we don't want to be here too long...
TO_Ens_K’Nargh says:
EO: Did you have any blood wine? ::still waiting for his blood wine::
EO_Ens_Leasha says:
::grins at the CNS:: CNS: JT Home from home Sir
CIV_Ens_Delar says:
@::nods and ducks into the JT quickly, heading for the ladder upwards::
SO_Ens_DeLindt says:
::Looks at the CSO, with an "after you" expression::
CO_Capt_Black says:
@CTO: Lieutenant...you'll go last and cover our rear....  ::gives him a confident nod::
CEO_Ens_Duclos says:
::Walks over towards the core and stops to look at its glow::
EO_Ens_Leasha says:
TO; Hey I said I would check ... :smiles:: Ill get back to you on that
XO_LtCmdr_Xia says:
EO: Granted, Ensign. ::She turns to the counselor and hands him a PADD on recent Jem'hadar movements noted in the region:: CNS: This may not help, but do your best to try to extrapolate the course and location of any nearby ships...it may help narrow your search...
CSO_Lt_Enki says:
::Sees the SO's glance:: XO: Nothing much yet.  Sensors have been pretty clear.
CNS_Ens_tr’Loris says:
~~~CMO: Thanks, I'll keep your offer strong in my mind~~~
CO_Capt_Black says:
@::quickly follows the CIV up to the bridge::
CIV_Ens_Delar says:
@::opens the access door and steps out into the ladder room, looking up he begins to ascend to the Bridge::
CMO_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::gets off the turbolift as it stops:: ~~~CNS: Good.~~~
FCO_Lt_Exeter says:
@::Quickly arrives on the bridge following the rest::
EO_Ens_Leasha says:
::Walks quickly and happily off the bridge like she was a Criminal just given parole and enters the TL:; TL: Main engineering

@CO: Yes sir ::waits and follows after the away team::
CNS_Ens_tr’Loris says:
::opens his eyes to look at the PADD quickly::
XO_LtCmdr_Xia says:
OPS: Lieutenant Taylor, do you have an open communications link with the away team? ::She gets comfortable in the chair, never before realizing how large the seat in fact is:: CNS: Yes, but please, do your best...it may give us an advantage knowing their possible return path through this region...
CIV_Ens_Delar says:
@::opens the last access door and heads up to the JT access for the Bridge::

EO_Ens_Leasha says:
::exits the TL and walks to ME looking for the Chief::
CSO_Lt_Enki says:
SO: Hmm... Jem'Hadar?  We should pick up their ships' warp signatures if they were here... I don't think their shrouding leaves signatures.
CO_Capt_Black says:
@::steps aside and enters a set of codes to access the door::
CMO_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::enters his office and goes to his office, pulling up the data on the Persephone::
CEO_Ens_Duclos says:
::Studies the core's blue glow::
CIV_Ens_Delar says:
@::ducks to the side as the hatch opens, waiting for a second before peeking his head around and slipping through onto the bridge::
OPS_Lt_Taylor says:
XO: Not an active commlink a passive commlink.
XO_LtCmdr_Xia says:
OPS: Thank you, Lieutenant..., open an active channel please. ::She stands slowly and moves up towards the centre of the command circle:: *CO*: Xia to Away Team. Captain Black, please respond. What is your status?

@::yells back through the hatch:: AT: All clear...::moves over to the Engineering console, opening his kit on top of it::
CO_Capt_Black says:
@::follows the CIV onto the bridge, scanning around to look for any unauthorized guests::
CMO_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::scans the crew files again:: Self: There should be something in here... some kind of clue.
CEO_Ens_Duclos says:
::Turns around:: EO: It almost got me already ::smiles:: How was it in the nerve center up there, or should I say nervous center?
CIV_Ens_Delar says:
@::pulls out some tools and wires and stuff and gets to work powering up this console and accessing the computer files::
CTO_Lt_Mesme says:
@::cautiously backs out onto the bridge and closes the hatch behind him:: All: So far so good.
CO_Capt_Black says:
@::taps his commbadge::  *XO*: Black here... status is green so far...we've reached the bridge and are now in the process of retrieving the information...

@::glances at the CIV::  CIV: Ensign, hook up your equipment and locate the data, then download it...  FCO: Lieutenant...assist the CIV please...
XO_LtCmdr_Xia says:
*CO*: Understood, Captain...thank you. ::She sighs and cracks a slight smile, rubbing the bridge of her nose:: You have 15 minutes to get back to the Runabout...either that or I'm coming in after you...::She smiles and lets out a soft chuckle::
TO_Ens_K’Nargh says:
*EO* Uhh, that was unnecessary, I’m still waiting ::laughs::
FCO_Lt_Exeter says:
@CIV: You need any Help?

OPS: Lieutenant, do you have a stable transporter lock on the away team? ::She turns back to the Operations console, her smile turning into a more serious expression::
SO_Ens_DeLindt says:
::Notices the CMO trying not laugh::
TO_Ens_K’Nargh says:
*EO* Get back to me on that incoming vessel
CEO_Ens_Duclos says:
::Nods:: EO: The emergency locking system on the main engineering JT access hatches need checking. Not just regular checkups, the techs took care of that. I want a physical check to see whether they can still be opened from inside the JT's manually when they're locked.
CNS_Ens_tr’Loris says:
Self: Gotcha again. :;grins:: XO: Okay I'm sensing the  Vorta this time along with the Jem Hadar.
FCO_Lt_Exeter says:
@::Sits back and grins:: CIV: Okay, just had to offer assistance and Grudgingly I accept you don't need it.
