<<<<<<<<<<<<<USS Scimitar Stardate 10511.14 - Guardian of the Continuous Light>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

The USS Scimitar remains in the Bravo Epidian System where the peace talks between the Federation and the Arillian National Assembly are about to begin.  Will both parties be able to come to an agreement and settle this dispute amicably or is this just another stepping stone in the continued conflict?

Only time will tell.

::behind the XO ,waiting::
CNS_Cmdr_Enki says:
::Sitting quietly on the Bridge::
XO_Cmdr_MacAllister says:
::pauses at the door to TR1 before entering::
Host Jabba says:
@<Commander_Chen’ha’nech> COM: Scimitar: We are still waiting for the transport co-ordinates, our patience has limits.
CMO_Lt_Abmeraz says:
::Walking around in sickbay  to prepare the autopsy on the two heartless people.::
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
CSO: let them have the transporter co ordinates please
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
COM: Chen: we are sending them now
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
::nods, then transmits the coordinates to the suddenly impatient Arillians:: CO: Coordinates sent ma'am
XO_Cmdr_MacAllister says:
*CO*: MacAllister to the Bridge, we're ready down here Cap'n.
Host Jabba says:
<Ambassador_Childs> ::waiting patiently in TR1::
FCO-LtJG-Exeter says:
::checks his phaser and tricorder and then feels if he has his back up phaser on him:: 
Host Jabba says:
@<Commander_Chen’ah’nech> COM: Scimitar: Standby. ::cuts the Comm::
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
CO: What came over them? They're suddenly in a hurry. I'm not sure if that's a good sign
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
CSO/EO: Can one of you make sure you have a lock on the AT at all times please

ACTION: The AT dematerialise from the Scimitar in an Arillian transporter beam

CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
CO: We're trying, but as I said before we can't guarantee anything
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
::Checks his console to see if they still have a lock::
EO_Ens_DuPont says:
::Checks sensors to see if he can still detect the away team's transporter signal::

ACTION: They rematerialise somewhere inside the Arillian vessel, although without their weapons and tricorders.

CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
CO/EO: We lost the lock.
XO_Cmdr_MacAllister says:
@::checks his belt and finds his weapon is missing::
FCO-LtJG-Exeter says:
@:: Looks rather p-ed off around him, quickly checking if he still has his back up phaser:: XO: This is highly irregular Ethan, I don't like it.

ACTION: They are standing in a large room of a roughly circular nature, the walls and floor are completely smooth, they glisten gold

CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
::Looks at the EO:: EO: can you pick up there life signs
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
::Taps away at his console, trying frantically to regain a transporter lock, while on the other console he starts a program to scan the shields, looking for its frequency and any weak spots::
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
CNS: commander can you see how the doctor is getting on with the autopsy
XO_Cmdr_MacAllister says:
@::turns to the FCO and whispers:: FCO: I hope you're up to date with your CQBs.
EO_Ens_DuPont says:
CO/CSO: Confirmed we have lost the transporter lock , scanning for federation life forms now captain
CNS_Cmdr_Enki says:
CO: I imagine the good Doctor would inform us if he found anything, but I shall interrupt him anyway, ma'am.
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
CNS: thank you
EO_Ens_DuPont says:
CO/CSO: I cannot detect their life signs captain, I believe our sensors are being blocked
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
CO: Scanning the shield now. I'm trying to find their frequency
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
EO?CSO find away around them .. I want a lock if possible
Host Jabba says:
@<Ambassador_Childs> AT: I guess we should wait for our hosts to arrive
FCO-LtJG-Exeter says:
@<whispers>XO: used to be a security officer and had highest marks of the academy in hand to hand. Then again the real thing is more fun. ::smiles::
XO_Cmdr_MacAllister says:
@AMB: Agreed Ambassador but if I see a single weapon...
CNS_Cmdr_Enki says:
::Silently stands from her chair, deciding to visit Sickbay in person rather than sit around on the Bridge.  Entering the turbo lift, she sets it to head towards the correct deck::

ACTION: Another transporter beam flairs inside the room to reveal a single Arillian

EO_Ens_DuPont says:
CO: Captain to find a way around, I need to route auxiliary powers to the main sensor array and hopefully with the additional power we can break through their jamming?
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
CSO: Keep SRS and LRS going let me know if there are any uninvited guests
Host Jabba says:
@<Ambassador_Childs> XO: You will do nothing Commander.
CMO_Lt_Abmeraz says:
::Walks over to the bodies and begins to examine the wounds.:: Self: Hmmmm, it appears their hearts have been yanked out with great force. Poor people.
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
CO: Aye ma'am. Got one eye on the sensors and one on my console
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
CSO: excellent just the way it should be ::Smiles::
Host Jabba says:
@<Minister> AT: We have taken your weapons and scanning devices, they will be returned to you if you leave here. Now, down to business.
XO_Cmdr_MacAllister says:
@::thinks "IF?" he doesn't like the sound of that::
FCO-LtJG-Exeter says:
@:: looks at the Arillian, wondering how useful 4 arms can be::
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
Outloud: We should have had that meeting on the scimitar
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
CO: Maybe we should've thought of that before we sent the team off ma'am
Host Jabba says:
@<Minister> AT: We want two things.  First we want to two individuals you have onboard your vessel, you know the ones we mean. Second we want you to return the property that was stolen from us.
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
CSO: I did but arrangements seemed to have been made
XO_Cmdr_MacAllister says:
@::frowns::
FCO-LtJG-Exeter says:
@:: grins::<whispers>Ambassador: The two he wants are dead and the thing we stole........well, that's Hadyes's handiwork
CNS_Cmdr_Enki says:
::Arrives on the proper deck and wanders towards Sickbay and the autopsy ward::
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
::Looks at the short and long range sensors, to make sure no one is sneaking up on them, while the program on the other console keeps running and looking for weak spots in the shielding::
XO_Cmdr_MacAllister says:
@::Whispers:: FCO: Maybe we should give them Haydes too.
Host Jabba says:
@<Minister> AT: You have 20 minutes.

ACTION: The Minster beams out leaving the AT alone

EO_Ens_DuPont says:
CO: Permission to depart the bridge to head towards main engineering where I can be useful?
FCO-LtJG-Exeter says:
@<whispers>XO: I wouldn't wish that on my biggest enemy, that would be cruelty.
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
EO: granted
XO_Cmdr_MacAllister says:
@::whispers:: FCO: And what about Haydes? ::grins::
CNS_Cmdr_Enki says:
::As she enters, she looks around for the Doctor::
CMO_Lt_Abmeraz says:
::He looks around to record a few things onto a PADD, completely ignoring everything that goes on around him.::
Host Jabba says:
@<Ambassador_Childs> ::looks taken aback slightly:: XO: That did not go as I had expected
EO_Ens_DuPont says:
::Feels slightly stunned that the Captain said yes, but heads towards the nearest TL::
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
EO: Lets keep in touch ensign, I might that power you promised me ::smiles::
FCO-LtJG-Exeter says:
@::laughs Outloud:: XO: I did not go as he expected, that one is good. :: removes a tear from his eye::
EO_Ens_DuPont says:
CSO: Just give the word Lt.
XO_Cmdr_MacAllister says:
@AMB: They want the bodies and the Star... could be difficult. Do you think you can negotiate with these people?
CNS_Cmdr_Enki says:
::Quietly knocks on a wall to get the Doctor's attention::  CMO: How are things proceeding, Lieutenant?
Host Jabba says:
@<Ambassador_Childs> XO: They seem set on what they want... although to my knowledge they are unaware that our two "passengers" are deceased
CMO_Lt_Abmeraz says:
::Drops the PADD as he is startled by the knocking. Makes a squeaking sound as he quickly turns around.:: CNS: Sorry ma'am, I didn't notice you come in.
FCO-LtJG-Exeter says:
@Ambassador;: then give them the bodies and for their 'property', well fiddle around it a bit.

ACTION: The Scimitar receives a hail from the Arillian vessel

EO_Ens_DuPont says:
::Arrives in ME, where he does a brief check on the status of the Arillian vessel and continues to prepare for the worst::
CNS_Cmdr_Enki says:
::Puts on a slight smile and keeps her voice low::  CMO: So I saw.  Didn't mean to startle you.
Host Jabba says:
@<Ambassador_Childs> FCO: I do not think we should cross these people, we are here to negotiate a peace, not escalate this into a further conflict, deception is not what we need to use.
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
CO: Ma'am, they're hailing us
XO_Cmdr_MacAllister says:
@AMB: So what happens when they find out we no longer have the star.
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
CSO: On screen.
FCO-LtJG-Exeter says:
@Ambassador: yeah and they are like reasonable people and they have been completely honest to us. We are at war, so they can demand all they want and so can we, ambassador!
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
::Puts the call on the view screen::
Host Jabba says:
@<Commander_Chen’ah’nech> COM: Scimitar: The negotiations have begun, depending on their outcome your party may be returned to you.  They have 12 minutes left.
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
CO: 12 minutes for negotiations? Sounds more like they've given us an ultimatum
Host Jabba says:
@<Ambassador_Childs> XO: That Commander is something we are sure to find out very soon, if that is indeed what they are after.
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
COM: Chan: maybe returned,? Is that your way of negotiating, if so you nee to go to those classes they had me down for ::smiles::
CMO_Lt_Abmeraz says:
::Kneels down to pick up the PADD and checks to confirm the data is still on there.:: CNS: That's okay, I was getting to much indented into my work again, sorry. These are some scary bodies here. I wish I knew what happened to them and who did this.
XO_Cmdr_MacAllister says:
@AMB: I'd also like to point out that it was the Arillians who started this war, they attacked a Federation outpost during the last set of peace talks.
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
::looks to the CSO to silence Comms::
FCO-LtJG-Exeter says:
@Ambassador: we aren't dealing with Alpha quadrant races 'this is phaser on the table and I'll give you my demands' diplomacy. 
Host Jabba says:
@<Ambassador_Childs> ::shakes his head:: FCO: These are a proud people Lieutenant, this is how they choose to negotiate, however we use a different means.
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
::Sees the CO look and mutes the sound:: CO: We're off audio ma'am
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
*EO* Bolitho to Dupont
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
CSO: Are there any other ships in the vicinity and do we out gun that ship ?
Host Jabba says:
@<Ambassador_Childs> XO: I am aware of that Commander, that is why I do not wish to provoke these people into another rash act
EO_Ens_DuPont says:
*CO* Yes Captain ?
FCO-LtJG-Exeter says:
@Ambassador: Yeah, so are we ,ambassador, well not proud, just pig  headed! They don't know how to treat us, so let's g9ive them something of their own medicine. Human Stubbornness, sir!
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
*EO* I want our people of that ship if necessary I do not like the way this is turning out ... fins away Ensign and quickly
CNS_Cmdr_Enki says:
CMO: Again, it happens.  ::Looks over the bodies in their current state and thinks::  I'm sure you've looked at the physical wounds and injuries.  No residual energy signatures?
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
CO: Negative on the guns department ma'am, from what I can tell we won't last very long
EO_Ens_DuPont says:
::Thinks that was quick I was gone maybe 5 minutes:: *CO* Aye sir can I recommend a full scan with auxiliary power, we might be able to detect the away teams life signs, as well get a better idea of exactly what we are facing?
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
CSO: I didn’t want to hear that .. There are always ways .. See if you can find away to disable them if need be
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
CO: From what I can tell they are at least the same as out Galaxy class, possibly even better
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
::Turns back to his console to check on the progress of his program, still looking for weak spots in their shielding::
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
*EO* Lets put it this way ... it seems if they AT does not agree to there demands ... we won't have an AT to rescue
CMO_Lt_Abmeraz says:
::Looks over to the bodies and points out to the serrated edges of the wounds.:: CNS: Not really ma'am. It's just like something blunt stabbed into their chests and just pulled out their hearts. I've never seen anything quite like it to be honest.
Host Jabba says:
@<Ambassador_Childs> FCO: Perhaps when it is the right time, for now I suggest we see what happens when the Minister returns, he may not be pleased to hear his prize is no longer living
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
::still waiting for an answer from the Arillians::
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
::Turns the audio back on::
XO_Cmdr_MacAllister says:
@AMB: I'm betting he definitely won't be best pleased.
EO_Ens_DuPont says:
*CSO*DuPont to Pierce
CNS_Cmdr_Enki says:
CMO: What about someone's hand, sharp nails?  Cut through the skin, the fingers spread the flesh apart, and they just... grabbed it?
FCO-LtJG-Exeter says:
@ Ambassador: Aye-aye, sir. ::shakes his head:: <whispers>XO: his kind of people make the wars and end a war in a bad way for the fleet.
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
*EO*: Go ahead ensign
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
::Sits in her chair awaiting the outcome of the meeting::
Host Jabba says:
@<Commander_Chen’ah’nech> COM: Scimitar: Perhaps you will be able to attend them if you leave this system alive... perhaps not
CMO_Lt_Abmeraz says:
::Nods and looks somewhat disappointed.:: CNS: As far as I can tell, that is about it. You haven't by any chance seen the creature that caused this?
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
::Mutes the audio for a second as he speaks to the CO:: CO: Has it occurred to you ma'am, that these might not be the people we expected?
EO_Ens_DuPont says:
*CSO* Auxiliary power is online, lets turn up the 'music' and see what we can find out about our continuous light friends!'
XO_Cmdr_MacAllister says:
@AMB: I thought this was supposed to be a negotiation anyway, why exactly are we not asking for anything in return?
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
*EO*: Right, maybe it will show us some more. Let’s hope they don't see it as a hostile act
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
::raises and eyebrow:: COM Chen: then Peace is not what you want, and you would rather sacrifice many thousands of your people in this war ?

ACTION: In a flair of transporter light the Arillian returns

Host Jabba says:
@<Minister> AT: Have you reached a decision?
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
::Increases the output to the scanners, looking if the increasing power will reveal something more. He also starts alternating on the different light frequencies::
XO_Cmdr_MacAllister says:
@::looks to the Ambassador::
CNS_Cmdr_Enki says:
CMO: Um, only briefly.  I caught a glimpse of something dropping from the ceiling.  There were small children present on the Bridge at the time somehow, and I was pushing them forcefully into the Ready Room to remove them from the situation.  I believe Lieutenants Pierce or Exeter might be more helpful there.
Host Jabba says:
@<Commander_Chen’ah’nech> COM: Scimitar: ::seems to hesitate for a moment:: ...If peace is what is right for us then that is what we shall have
EO_Ens_DuPont says:
::Monitors the sensor scan of the Arillian ship::
FCO-LtJG-Exeter says:
::Whispers:: XO: I made up my mind I rather fillet the minister and have him for lunch ::grunts::
Host Jabba says:
@<Ambassador_Childs> Minister: We will return the two individuals you want, however I'm afraid they have... died.
CMO_Lt_Abmeraz says:
::Looks up quite shocked from the bodies as was about to scan the wounds for any other abnormalities.:: CNS: Children? What were they doing on the bridge anyway?
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
COM: then why not concentrate on that, instead of Escalating the war... these are supposed to be peace talks ... unfortunately both sides will have to give if peace is what we both want
XO_Cmdr_MacAllister says:
@::watches carefully for the Arillians reaction::
CNS_Cmdr_Enki says:
CMO: That's a good question.  I'm not sure how they got there, either... a teacher was with them, but they shouldn't have clearance to make it to the Bridge.  I've filed a report with the Chief Tactical Officer, so maybe they'll check over the turbo lift restrictions.
Host Jabba says:
@<Minister> Amb: Died? ::thinks for a moment:: Who was in the immediate vicinity when their life signs were extinguished?
Host Jabba says:
@<Ambassador_Childs> ::turns to the XO:: XO: Perhaps you can answer that question Commander ::gives his aid a glance::
XO_Cmdr_MacAllister says:
@::Steps forward:: Minister, if I may... The medical staff did everything they could to keep the two individuals alive.
CMO_Lt_Abmeraz says:
::Nods:: CNS: But how are the children doing? I hope they don't have any problems, witnessing such horrible sight?
Host Jabba says:
@<Commander_Chen’ah’nech> COM: Scimitar: You have taken from us, you are the ones that have maintained this war.  We only want the return of what is rightfully ours! ::looks aggravated::
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
::Frowns as his scans still come up empty::
FCO-LtJG-Exeter says:
@::raises an eyebrow::<whispers>XO: I think the CMO might have been in the neighbourhood.
CNS_Cmdr_Enki says:
CMO: The children did not witness anything, as far as I can tell.  I was in the way, and they may have only seen the briefest shadow at most.  As for explaining their teacher's death, it is never easy to explain death to a child, but they are working through as can be expected.
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
COM: Chen: And what have we taken from you ?
Host Jabba says:
@<Minister> XO: That is no longer my concern, who was with them when they died, this we have to know it is... important
XO_Cmdr_MacAllister says:
@Minister: Before I give you that information I must know what will happen to the Person or Persons in the vicinity.
Host Jabba says:
@<Commander_Chen’ah’nech> COM: Scimitar: ::almost blurts something out but manages to hold on:: Enough of this.  ::cuts the Comm again::
CMO_Lt_Abmeraz says:
::Lets out a sigh as he watches the bodies again.:: CNS: That's good to know then. I am sure they were very fortunate to have you around when it happened. As for these two people. There is little more we can learn or do for them. If you have no further interest in them, I will have them properly placed somewhere sage until we get back.
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
Self: oh well nearly got there ::leans back in her chair and sighs::
Host Jabba says:
@<Minister> XO: They will suffer the same fate as the two individuals we originally sought
CNS_Cmdr_Enki says:
::Shakes her head::  CMO: I wasn't really coming down to check on them... I was pretty sure they were dead.
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
CO: Scans turning up empty ma'am, can't find a weak spot yet, but I’m still scanning
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
CSO: there’s got to be one somewhere.. Nothing is invincible
XO_Cmdr_MacAllister says:
@Minister: I'm afraid I cannot allow that, I cannot, in good conscience condemn the life of a man who did everything he could to save the lives of your friends.
CMO_Lt_Abmeraz says:
::Finally manages to show a slight smile.:: CNS: Well why didn't you say so in the first place? It would have saved me a lot of trouble and disgusting sights. But thank you for checking up on them. If they were still with us, they would have surely appreciated it.
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
::nods and returns to his scans::
EO_Ens_DuPont says:
::Monitors the Arillian ship looking for any signs of power surges::
Host Jabba says:
@<Minister> XO: You misunderstand, if you do not give them over to us then they will die, along with the rest of your crew
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
CO: Ma'am, maybe if we sent a shuttle their way, we could scan up close, maybe even take a look what's inside those holes in their hull
FCO-LtJG-Exeter says:
@:;raises an eyebrow:: Self: them?
CNS_Cmdr_Enki says:
::Chuckles lightly::  CMO: The Captain wanted me to check on your progress.  I'll let her know you're done... although she may be busy at the moment, dealing with the negotiations.
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
CSO: It’s an option, but I have no idea who the meeting is going and if we will damage it in someway
CMO_Lt_Abmeraz says:
::Looks up again.:: CNS: Negotiations? Are we already talking with the Arillians?
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
CO: I hate to break it to you ma'am, but this is a very one sided negotiation from what I can see. They are not negotiating... they are demanding. Don't think there’s much to be broken
XO_Cmdr_MacAllister says:
@Minister: I think it is you who misunderstand. I will not put the lives of any of my crew at risk. If anyone is answerable for the deaths of your comrades then that is me.
CNS_Cmdr_Enki says:
CMO: Yes, we are.  I guess things are a little out of the loop down here in Sickbay.
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
CSO: I will be the judge of that Open communications to that ship
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
CO: aye ma'am ::Hails the Arillian vessel:: COMM: Scimitar to Arillian ship
CMO_Lt_Abmeraz says:
::Shrugs:: CNS: I suppose so and I so hoped I was able to get to talk or see one of those Arillians in person. But I am sure the captains is able to get to something with them. She's a good captain, isn't she?
EO_Ens_DuPont says:
*CO* Dupont to Bolitho. Captain what about the use of a class one probe to enhance our sensor scans of the Arillian ship?
Host Jabba says:
@<Minister> ::for the first time in an age he draws himself up onto his back legs and looks down at the entire AT:: XO: You were not there, I have no interest in your.  Give me the names of your crewmembers, if only to save their lives, I give you my word, if it is possible I will return them unharmed to you
CNS_Cmdr_Enki says:
CMO: I haven't talked with her much, but I found myself disagreeing with the way this ship is run, in some ways.  And I don't think she's actually doing any negotiating - the Ambassador beamed over with his aide, MacAllister, and Exeter.
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
*EO*: Any chance we can cloak it ::grins:: Might work, get on to it and let me know when its ready, I need to somehow talk to the Away team
Host Jabba says:
@<Commander_Chen’ah’nech> COM: Scimitar: Yes?
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
CO: Comm open ma'am
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
COM: Chen: Ahh Commander ... I would like to speak to a member of the away team
EO_Ens_DuPont says:
::Exits ME and runs to the nearest TL ::
XO_Cmdr_MacAllister says:
@Minister: You'll understand if I'm more than a little sceptical about that Minister, give me something I can work with.
Host Jabba says:
@<Commander_Chen’ah’nech> COM: Scimitar: Why? They are in the middle of delicate negotiations
CMO_Lt_Abmeraz says:
::Somewhat surprised:: CNS: Is that so? I've seen her down here once, when we still had the other mysterious pair lying on the bio beds here. I thought she was doing pretty well. But I have to trust your judgement ma'am. You have to spend more time with the captain than I ever will I think.
CNS_Cmdr_Enki says:
CMO: I'm not saying she's doing a bad job, I'm just saying I don't agree with her decisions sometimes.
FCO-LtJG-Exeter says:
@::whispers:: XO: Maybe something to eat or drink?
EO_Ens_DuPont says:
::Arrives in the main shuttle bay where he reconfigures a class 2 sensor probe::
XO_Cmdr_MacAllister says:
@::glances to the FCO:: FCO: Shhh
Host Jabba says:
@<Minister> XO: I can give you my word and nothing more, that will have to be enough ::looks slightly tired::
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
COM: Chan: okay lets be honest here, after your last communication I am a little concerned about there welfare, you have blocked all scans that allow us to read there life signs and broke the lock we have on them .. Surely being an officer of command you understand my concerns, and that I wish not to disrupt negotiations either
CMO_Lt_Abmeraz says:
::Nods:: CNS: I understand. I just had the impression that... well, on second thought, never mind. ::Begins to cover up the bodies.:: I will clean up in here and hope I will not be in here again soon. Please make sure MacAllister and Exeter come back in one piece, okay?
XO_Cmdr_MacAllister says:
@Minister: I don't want your word that you'll try, I want your word that the person involved will have his say and also be allowed proper representation and consideration for his actions.
CNS_Cmdr_Enki says:
CMO: I don't think it's up to me at this point.  Do you need a hand?
Host Jabba says:
@<Commander_Chen’ah’nech> COM: Scimitar: I will see if I can arrange it, for now know that they are unharmed.
CMO_Lt_Abmeraz says:
::Smiles:: CNS: Please, if you wouldn't mind. ::Walks over to the other side, to hold the body bag and indicates for the CNS to close it.::
CNS_Cmdr_Enki says:
::Zips up the bag::
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
::sighs as these 'negotiations' aren't going very well::
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
COM: Chan: thank you commander is there any chance you will allow us to read there life signs as well a gesture of good will,
Host Jabba says:
@<Minister> XO: Agreed, although there must be more than 1 person involved, I must know all those in the immediate vicinity.
FCO-LtJG-Exeter says:
@::Whispers:: XO: could be the CSO or the CNS. I was on the bridge 24/7, oh slave driver sir.

ACTION: On the Scimitar the Life signs of the Away Team suddenly start showing up on sensors, they are coming somewhere from the Arillian vessel, although they cannot be pinned down to a specific location

EO_Ens_DuPont says:
*CSO* One class 2 probe is ready for launch, I suggest we launch her manually from the shuttle bay so as to not to excite our 'friends' and using remote control move her closer to those force fields on the Arillian ship?
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
CO: We got life signs. No location though
XO_Cmdr_MacAllister says:
@Minister: For that I would need to consult with my commanding officer. Would you allow me to do this?
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
*EO*: agreed, commence launching
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
CSO: Excellent keep an eye on them and thank Commander Chen for me
CMO_Lt_Abmeraz says:
::Walks over to the other body and before holding up the bag, he looks at the face of the teacher.:: CNS: Poor fellow, he was just trying to teach something to those poor kids. ::Sighs:: Con te partiro. Time to leave.
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
*EO* Bolitho to Dupont
EO_Ens_DuPont says:
*CO* DuPont here
CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
COMM: Chan: We express our gratitude for your token of good faith ::Turns back to his console with disgust. A phone boy too now?::
CO_Capt_Bolitho says:
*EO* get the probe ready but do not launch .. Commander Chen has allowed me to see the AT life signs as a goodwill gesture, I can not do anything to threaten that at the moment ....
Host Jabba says:
@<Minister> ::grumbles:: XO: Enough stalling, I have agreed to all of your demands, now give me what I want!
FCO-LtJG-Exeter says:
@::whispers:: XO: Just give him what he wants sir!
