<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Resume Mission >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Host CO_Capt_MacAllister says:
@::In his ready room trying to contact the Station Commander::
AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
::walks in to the interrogation area:: Canis: So Dog faced boy... Fido is it...Can I ask a few questions?
FCO_Ens_Sumner says:
@::sighs and dons her pips, not quite ready to go back to work yet::

<Canis>  AXO:  You can ask, but, don't expect an answer.

FCO_Ens_Sumner says:
@::yawns lightly as she rides a turbolift::
AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
Canis: Knife throwing is a difficult thing to do for some, yes? I remember my training on that, and I'm no where near as competent as you must be.

<Station Commander> COM: CO:  What can I do for you Captain?

<Canis> AXO:  It is a natural talent I seem to have.  I grew up in the streets, it was a necessity.

AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
Canis: Well not necessarily knife throwing itself, but any talent, yes. So just how proficient are you?
Host CO_Capt_MacAllister says:
@COM: SC: I have information that your internal sensor records have been tampered with, I need the names of all crew who had access to the appropriate systems from the time of the murder to now.

<Canis>  AXO:  I can put a knife beside your antenna without so much as nicking you from 3 yards.

FCO_Ens_Sumner says:
@::ends up on the bridge, moving to her console and settling in for a boring shift::

<Canis>  ::smiles:: AXO: Would you like a demonstration?

AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
Self: Oh dear, my antennae! The thought! Canis: I understand you were questioned before but in the light of new evidence, I'd like to ask a few more questions. That is why I have called you back here.

<Canis>  AXO: I have nothing to hide.

AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
Canis: How close are you to Felidae?

<Canis>  AXO: She is a part of the act.

AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
Canis: I mean outside of the professional circle.

<Station Commander> COM: CO:  Certainly Captain.  I will have my own people check as well.

Host CO_Capt_MacAllister says:
@COM: SC: With all due respect, if your records have been tampered with then there's a high chance that one or maybe more of your crew are responsible. I'll keep you informed of our findings.

<Canis>  AXO: We are family.

AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
Canis: Literally?

<Station Commander>  COM: CO:  Very well Captain, and thank you.

Host CO_Capt_MacAllister says:
@Lorianna: I know you're there. ::smiles::

<Canis>  AXO: We are freaks who were down on our luck.  When Gordy and Jade took us in, they made us feel....loved and a sense of belonging.

AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
Canis: I read that you were both hired by different people. You, by Gordy, yes?

<Canis>  AXO: In that sense we are family.  And yes Gordy hired me.

<Lorianna>  @ CO:  Yes Captain?

AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
Canis: Were there any hard feelings that Jade only wanted to hire the one of you and Gordy the other or was it just more convenient like that?

Host CO_Capt_MacAllister says:
@Lorianna: I'm having some additional data sent over from the station... I'd like you to look through it and see if any of the people on the list have any reason or motive to kill the Hermat.

<Canis>  AXO:  It was coincidence Commander.  When interviewing, I got Gordy and she got Jade, that's it.

AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
Canis: Well that's all for now. Thank you.

<Lorianna>  @CO:  One moment while I process Captain.

AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
::nods politely and leaves::
AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
*CO*: Idrani to MacAllister

<Canis>  AXO:  Your welcome.  Oh and if I were you, I'd look at Ying and Yang.

Host CO_Capt_MacAllister says:
@::taps his badge:: *AXO*: Go ahead.

AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
Canis: Why do you say that?

<Canis>  AXO:  It's just that...I think they were....involved with Gordy.

AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
*CO*: Sir, It's hard to jump into the middle of an investigation without covering some of the same ground. Can you give me any details of your findings as of yet?
AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
Canis: Involved? All... three of them?

<Canis>  ::nods::

<Canis>  AXO:  Gordy is.....was a Hermat you know.  Well suited for that kind of relationship if you know what I mean.

AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
::covers a shudder, at least Andorian groups are natural:: Canis: Thank you. *Ying/Yang*: Please report for further questioning.

<Canis>  ::leaves::

Host CO_Capt_MacAllister says:
@*AXO*: Well it would seem that sensor records for the time of the murder were erased so we were unable to get an ID of the suspect that way... we're just going through the list of people who had access to them now.

<Ying>  ::looks at Yang:: Yang:  What could they want now?

<Yang>  Ying:  I don't know, but, let's not keep them waiting.

AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
*CO*: Please keep me informed, and run the first test against Ying and Yang

<Ying>  *AXO*  We will be right there.

Host CO_Capt_MacAllister says:
@::looks at the list of possible suspects::
AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
*FCO*: Ensign Sumner, please report to interrogation room 4 on the station.
FCO_Ens_Sumner says:
@::quirks an eyebrow, wondering what this was about and heading for the turbolift::

<Lorianna> @CO:  There are 2 who had opportunity and ability.  They were both in Operations at the time.

AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
::Waits for Sumner and the Ying and Yang duo::
FCO_Ens_Sumner says:
::arrives on the station, heading for the interrogation room::

<Lorianna> @CO:  Also, of the carnival employees, there are 4 who have the ability to manipulate the sensor data.

Host CO_Capt_MacAllister says:
@Lorianna: Send their names to station security and have them apprehended and brought to the interrogation rooms, make sure they are separated and kept that way.
CMO_LtJG_Balena says:
::steps into the infirmary::
FCO_Ens_Sumner says:
::enters interrogation:: AXO: Sir?
CMO_LtJG_Balena says:
::looks around for the station CMO::
AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
FCO: Ensign... ::doesn't like calling her that but needs to remain in an official capacity:: I could use your assistance questioning Ying and Yang.

<Lorianna> @CO:  The small man, Ms. Bartles and the Siamese twins all have the ability.

FCO_Ens_Sumner says:
AXO: In what capacity?
Host CO_Capt_MacAllister says:
@Lorianna: I need to know the exact time that the sensor records were modified.

<Jonah Little>  ::staggers down the hall and runs into the CMO:: CMO:  Excuse me.  ::falls to the floor leaving a bloody hand print on the CMO::

AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
FCO: I'm not so good at the questioning... a sarcastic comment maybe... you have your counselling background that could come in useful. Apparently Ying and Yang were involved with the victim.
FCO_Ens_Sumner says:
AXO: Romantically?
AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
FCO: Either something went wrong, or even Ms Bartles is the murderer and is trying to get the twins out of the circus. She never did seem to like them. And yes, romantically.

<Ying/Yang>::enters the room::   AXO/FCO: Good day.

CMO_LtJG_Balena says:
::looks down at Jonah:: Jonah: Where are you wounded?
AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
Ying/Yang: Please take a seat.
Host CO_Capt_MacAllister says:
@::stands and walks to the door:: Lorianna: I'm going to question these suspects, contact me when you have something. ::smiles and heads for the lift::
FCO_Ens_Sumner says:
::smiles politely at the twins::
AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
Self: Or two...

<Jonah Little>  ::moans::

AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
Ying/Yang: I heard that you were involved romantically with Gordy.
FCO_Ens_Sumner says:
::winces slightly:: AXO: A word, commander?
AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
Ying/Yang: Excuse me. ::steps aside:: FCO: Yeeees?

<Ying> :: narrows her eyes :: AXO: Our personal life isn't a concern of yours.

Host CO_Capt_MacAllister says:
::steps off the ship and looks around::
FCO_Ens_Sumner says:
::keeps her voice low:: AXO: I think you should let me ask the questions... stepping outside might be helpful as well.
CMO_LtJG_Balena says:
::Kneels next to the patient and starts to check for the wound::

<Jonah Little>  ::passes out::

AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
Ying: Well actually it is when it concerns a murder. FCO: Not just yet, Ensign.
FCO_Ens_Sumner says:
::sighs softly and nods, turning back to the twins::
Host CO_Capt_MacAllister says:
::walks down a corridor and spots the CMO... kneeling:: Self: Aw fer... ::starts to move faster:: CMO: What's up doc?
AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
Ying: I am sorry if this is a personal question again, but I assume that each of you, being male and female... How to phrase this? Is it possible that one of you could become pregnant? ::looks at the female half::

<Yang>  AXO:  We know our rights and we have cooperated fully!

FCO_Ens_Sumner says:
::resists the strong urge to groan::

<Ying>  AXO:  Yes, I could, but, I have nothing more to say to you!

AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
Ying: I am sorry, is there a reason for your sudden lack of cooperation?
FCO_Ens_Sumner says:
::sighs in exasperation:: AXO: Permission to return to duty, sir? It's obvious you don't desire my help in questioning.
Host Jules says:
<Yang>  AXO:  You have upset my sister!  Leave us alone.
AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
::pulls the FCO aside:: FCO: Problem Sara?
FCO_Ens_Sumner says:
::whispers in harsh tones:: AXO: You have all the grace of a mad cow... if you want anything from them, you'll leave and let me question them.
AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
FCO: I am not as... inefficient as you think. I am trying to rile them up. Anger could cause them to say something they may regret. Good cop bad cop scenario I think humans call it. ::gives a genuine smile:: I don't like it but I have good reason for it.
FCO_Ens_Sumner says:
AXO: This is the part where the bad cop leaves...
AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
FCO: Right on cue ::smiles:: Whatever you do, we need a Doctor to scan them... something isn't right and I want to know what it is.
FCO_Ens_Sumner says:
AXO: Then go find Balena and leave me to it.

<Yang>  ::glares at the AXO and comforts his sister::

AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
::smiles again softly out of sight of Ying and Yang before giving them a look to show what he thinks of their sexual preferences as he leaves::
AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
::outside the interrogation room:: *CMO*: Idrani to Balena

<Yang>  ::watches as the AXO leaves::  Ying:  It's alright, he left.

FCO_Ens_Sumner says:
::runs her fingers through her hair and turns back to the twins, smiling apologetically:: Twins: I'm very sorry. He's not a very graceful person, or original. He wants to play this routine with you, but I highly doubt you'd fall for it.

<Ying> FCO:  Fall for it?

AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
::checks the CMOs log:: *CO*: Idrani to MacAllister!
Host CO_Capt_MacAllister says:
*AXO*: Damn it to hell Idrani, don't shout!
FCO_Ens_Sumner says:
::smirks softly:: Ying: He expects that by angering you and then letting me calm you down will make you comfortable with me, so you might tell me something. I'm not all that interested in that, though...
AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
*CO*: Sir, have you seen the Doctors report? It shows Romulan contact...
Host Jules says:
<Yang> FCO:  You're not? :; blinks a couple of times ::  I mean, of course you're not.
Host CO_Capt_MacAllister says:
*AXO*: Any Romulans in the circus troop?
AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
*CO*: Well as far as I know the only people to have had sexual relations with Gordy was Jade, and there are signs of Kressari DNA and... Ying and Yang... who aren't Romulan... are they?
Host CO_Capt_MacAllister says:
*AXO*: Aren't they? Does anyone actually know what they are?
AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
*CO*: Well... er... I suppose THEY do... Computer: Locate the nearest Romulan to my location.

ACTION:  The CMO gets Jonah to the infirmary.

<COMPUTER> AXO:  The nearest Romulan what Commander?
AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
Computer: Romulan... Romulan... being...person... Romulan
Host CO_Capt_MacAllister says:
::rounds the corner to see Idrani getting rather impatient with the computer::
Host CO_Capt_MacAllister says:
AXO: What did it do this time?
AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
CO: It's what it didn’t do. Ah wait, I know. Computer: Please...

<COMPUTER> AXO: One moment, scanning for nearest, living Romulan person.

AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
::hums Walla Walla Bing Bang as he waits::
Host CO_Capt_MacAllister says:
AXO: Gonnae no dae tha'.
AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
CO: Wheest yes..what?
CMO_LtJG_Balena says:
::grabs the midget and moves him over to a biobed:: ALL: NEED SOME HELP IN HERE!
AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
CO: AH! Spotland accent, right?

<COMPUTER> AXO: The nearest living Romulan person is on this station in interrogation room 4.

Host CO_Capt_MacAllister says:
::glares at the AXO::

ACTION:  2 Nurses and a Doctor rush to help the CMO.

AXO_LtCmdr_Idrani says:
CO: Bingo! Unless my girlfriend is Romulan, and trust me she isn’t, we have some people in the wrong skin!
CMO_LtJG_Balena says:
ALL: We have a head trauma get me inpedrazine, cortical stimulator and have analeptic standing by.
Host CO_Capt_MacAllister says:
AXO: I think we finally have a viable suspect.
