CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
SO:  Thank you, ensign.  ::looks at the XO::

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
CTO: Now, I , of course, had to have it translated to see what this was all about.  Now, do you know what I discovered about you?  ::looking very serious::

FCO_Lt_Adams says:
XO: Commander, confirmed. I have the Wo`Taj's signal on the sensors.

::waits to hear what the captain has to say::

CSO: Well... just got a few things on my mind... but thanks for asking ::smiles::

MO_Ens_Krynne says:

CTO_LtCmdr_Krag says:
CO: Thank you still. ::Still slight confused:: They send that message in Klingon?

MO_Ens_Krynne says:
CMO: Very good. I had an idea about the nature of the bacteria I'd like to discuss with you.

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:

MO: And, for the record, My hovercraft is NOT full of eels.

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
::shakes hand::  CTO: No...I made it up to make it more fun for you...and me.

CEO_Lt_On says:

MO: Proceed

CTO_LtCmdr_Krag says:
::Shakes Captain hand:: CO: Ahh I see. ::still surprised humans managed to make it to space::

MO_Ens_Krynne says:
::nods:: CMO: Do you think it could be abiological marker? Something that is given to every one who goes there as a way of ... I don't know, showing that they were there? Or that they are an enemy or that they are suspect or? Well what do you think?

FCO_Lt_Adams says:
::keeps a close eye on the Wo`Taj as they approach::

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
CTO:  It’s my way of making promotions fun...now, back to duty Commander. ::smiles::

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
::takes SCI 1 and checks LRS readings::

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
FCO: The Wo'Taj is still holding their pattern?

CEO_Lt_On says:
::arrives to the bridge and turns on his the ENG station::

CTO_Cmdr_Krag says:
CO: Aye Aye Sir. ::Stands up Salutes then executes a 180 and exits the ready room still wondering about humans::

FCO_Lt_Adams says:
XO: Yes Commander, still holding the same pattern.

CMO_LT_Turok says:
MO: It is possible.  However, it is not possible to track the bacteria over any great distance.  It could be used as a marker which could be checked at close range however.

MO_Ens_Krynne says:
CMO:  My thoughts exactly.

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
FCO: Good... don't like change. ::smiles::

FCO_Lt_Adams says:
::can feel him smiling behind her back::

CNS_Ens_Mrlr says:
::looks up and sees the CEO.  Gets up and walks over to him:: CEO: You missed your appointment.  Did you not want to see me about something?

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
XO:  Sir, there is a Romulan ship about 13 light years away heading toward SB 185.  It's very old, possibly the ship from the Linath base.

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
::looks over more paperwork:: *FCO*: Lieutenant!  I need to see you right now! ::sounds a bit upset::

CMO_LT_Turok says:
MO: I do not see a purpose for that.  Unless it is to mark them for others to classify.  Such as "Spy" or "Friend".

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
CSO: Will they arrive before or after us?

FCO_Lt_Adams says:
*CO*: Yes Captain, right away as soon as I can get a relief pilot here.

CTO_Cmdr_Krag says:
::Arrives back at tactical and takes over the station::

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
::drums his fingers waiting for Adams::

CEO_Lt_On says:
CNS: I have been kind of busy. You have been eating and missing some of them, too.

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
CEO: Anything to report? How is ME doing?

MO_Ens_Krynne says:
CMO: That was my initial thought.  Anotherpossibility is that maybe they turn hostile when another bacteriological agent is also introduced into the bloodstream. ::sighs:: There is still too much that is unknown....

CMO_LT_Turok says:
::Receives a PADD from T'lau and scans it quickly::

FCO_Lt_Adams says:
::calls down to the flight deck:: *Rien* Adams to Rien, report to the bridge immediately for helm duty.

CEO_Lt_On says:
XO: I was kind of bored at ME. So I came right up.

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
XO: Their ETA is about 2 days.  We'll get first.

CTO_Cmdr_Krag says:
::Checks the tactical sensors::

FCO_Lt_Adams says:
<Rien> *FCO*: Right now Cassie? I was just going off duty.

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
::paces now waiting with less patience::

CMO_LT_Turok says:
MO: Hmmm, that is an interestingpossibility.  But, if they wanted to kill the away team, they could have simply done so.  Perhaps it would become a mind altering substance.

FCO_Lt_Adams says:
*Rien* I believe I said immediately. Move it!

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
FCO: CO sounded impatient; go I'll take care of the helm.

CTO_Cmdr_Krag says:
::wonders if Turok passed all his information on::*CMO*: Are you busy?

Host Tim says:
ACTION: LRS SHOW AN UNIDENTIFIED SHIP AT 17 LIGHT YEARS

FCO_Lt_Adams says:
::looks around anxiously for Rien to arrive:: XO: Are you sure sir?

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
FCO: Go.

CMO_LT_Turok says:
*CTO*: I am always busy.  What do you want?

MO_Ens_Krynne says:
CMO: My thought is this: If they are marked as "suspect or spy" then the secondary agent would kill them when the Linath wanted to... and in such a way that was not necessarily traceable to them. What do you think?

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
::sees a new dot on LRS screen::

FCO_Lt_Adams says:
::stands and nods at the XO then heads for the ready room and rings the chime::

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
CSO: Understood. We'll be there long before. ::smiles::

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
Door: Enter!

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
::Sits down at the helm::

CNS_Ens_Mrlr says:
::looks at him puzzled but decides not to pursue it:: CEO: Well, if you need me, just make another appointment.  ::gives a friendly smile and walks back::

CTO_Cmdr_Krag says:
*CMO*: I wanted to know if you had any additional information on the documents mission from the Empire.

FCO_Lt_Adams says:
::steps cautiously into the room:: CO: Sorry for the delay sir.

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
XO:  I have now an unidentified ship within LRS range.  Range:  17 light years.

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
::Looks at all the commands and feels like a child in a candy store... it must've been years since he had touched a starship helm::

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
FCO: Sorry don't cut it Lieutenant.  Sit down.

CMO_LT_Turok says:
MO: ::Ponders::  Interesting idea.  Do a report on these theories and prepare some experiments in that direction.

CEO_Lt_On says:
CNS: I will Counselor.

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
CSO: What is it? ::Presses a few buttons::

FCO_Lt_Adams says:
CO: Aye sir. :;sits on the edge of the chair::

MO_Ens_Krynne says:
CMO: Alright then. ::leaves::

CMO_LT_Turok says:
*CTO*: No Commander, my source is not highly placed on Q'Onos.  All I learned was the mission of the Wo'Taj.  None of the details.

CNS_Ens_Mrlr says:
::notices the new rank insignia on the CTO:: CTO: Congratulations Commander. ::grins and sits down::

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
FCO: I was reading your latest flight reports and Starfleet also read them. ::looking quite stern about it::

CMO_LT_Turok says:
::Walks back into his office and puts the PADDs down::

FCO_Lt_Adams says:
CO: Is there a problem with them sir?

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
FCO: And you know what?  They contacted me personally about you...

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
XO:  Database searching indicates that this ship has the same configuration as the ship that left the Linath base.

CTO_Cmdr_Krag says:
::nods to the CNS as he checks his board::

MO_Ens_Krynne says:
::walks into the med labs and starts looking for a bacteria that might interact with the other one::

CMO_LT_Turok says:
*XO*: Commander, I have some information on the bacteria carried by the away team.

CNS_Ens_Mrlr says:
::goes back to reading and learning how to treat dwarves with foot fetishes...just in case they should ever come across that situation::

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
CSO: Interesting... what could it be?

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
FCO: I could not believe it!  They told me there was only one thing I could do about your performance at helm and on this ship!

FCO_Lt_Adams says:
::looks worried::

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
*CMO*:  What is it?

FCO_Lt_Adams says:
CO: I can improve sir, honestly.

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
::Presses a few buttons to make the engines more efficient::

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
FCO: They told me that...well...I am not sure I should proceed....

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
XO:  Perhaps they are searching for more information.  ::sighs::  I could not tell.

CMO_LT_Turok says:
*XO*: We have found a way to destroy it.

CTO_Cmdr_Krag says:
*CMO*: I have some contacts that may give us more information, however I doubt they will talk to me.

FCO_Lt_Adams says:
CO: I can come back sir.

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
::The engines are now 0.023% more efficient::

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
<SO Duraes> CSO:  Sir, the Wo'Taj is now heading toward the rendezvous point.

CMO_LT_Turok says:
*CMO*: I doubt they would speak with me either since they do now know me.

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
*CMO* Very good. Do you want the away team people to go to sickbay?

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
::looks at her dead in the face::  FCO: I have no choice but to send you back to your post with this ::hands her a small box::

CEO_Lt_On says:
::walks slowly and stand beside the CTO::CTO: Good for you on your new rank. ::shakes his hand::

FCO_Lt_Adams says:
::reaches out and takes the small box:: CO: Sir?

CTO_Cmdr_Krag says:
ON: Thank you.

CMO_LT_Turok says:
*XO*: Perhaps.  It appears that exposure to temperatures in excess of four hundred degrees Kelvin will destroy the bacteria.

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
::smiles:: FCO: You have to return to duty as Lieutenant Commander....congratulations.

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
SO:  Understood.  Keep tab on it.

CEO_Lt_On says:
::walks back slowly to his station::

FCO_Lt_Adams says:
CO: Lieutenant Commander sir? ::stands and looks at the Captain's face::

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
XO:  The Wo'Taj is heading toward the rendezvous point.

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
*CMO*:  Wouldn't that kill the subject ad well? I'm not very good in science...

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
FCO: You have done well Commander...I was just pulling your leg. ::shakes her hand::

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
CSO: ETA?

FCO_Lt_Adams says:
::shakes the Captain's hand:: CO: Thank you Captain.

CMO_LT_Turok says:
*XO*: Oh, most certainly.  It would burn them to cinders.  Do you still wish to have the away team report to Sickbay?

CTO_Cmdr_Krag says:
*CMO*: Perhaps, but they might.

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
FCO: Keep up the good work...

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
*CMO* Well... is there another way to kill the bacteria without killing the subject?

FCO_Lt_Adams says:
CO: I will certainly try sir. Thank you again.

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
FCO: Back to work now Commander...

CMO_LT_Turok says:
*CTO*: Very well, send me the information.  I will see what I can do.

FCO_Lt_Adams says:
::turns and heads back to the bridge:: CO: Right away sir.

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
::puts the last of his reports away and heads onto the Bridge::  XO: Report.

FCO_Lt_Adams says:
::moves back to her station smiling from ear to ear::

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
CSO: ETA??

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
XO:  Eight minutes.  They will get there right along with us.

CTO_Cmdr_Krag says:
::Sends the data to the CMO::

FCO_Lt_Adams says:
::puts the box on her panel and opens it:: Self: Ooo nice.

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
::heads to his chair::

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
::Looks at the FCO who now has three pips, gets up:: FCO: Congratulations, commander. ::smiles as he extends his arm::

CTO_Cmdr_Krag says:
::notices that the FCO was also promoted::

CNS_Ens_Mrlr says:
::Wonders if every time someone goes into the ready room they come out with a new rank.  Grins:: FCO: Congratulations to you as well.

CMO_LT_Turok says:
*XO*: No sir, not yet.

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
::listens to the crew and looks at Cassie::

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
*CMO* Then please keep working on it, thanks. Taylor out.

FCO_Lt_Adams says:
XO: Thank you Mr. Taylor. ::shakes his hand:: Thank you thank you.

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
::Gets to the ready room and rings::

CMO_LT_Turok says:
::Receives the data from Krag, notes it is now Commander Krag::

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
CSO: You have the bridge.

MO_Ens_Krynne says:
::finds a bacteria that looks promising and runs an experiment::

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
::realizes she's very happy::  FCO:  Lieutenant Commander, huh? ::smiles::

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
XO:  Aye sir. ::stands::

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
CO: May I see you now?

CMO_LT_Turok says:
::Grins to himself as Taylor breaks the connection.  Wonders how anyone could not see the great Klingon sense of humor possessed by the species.::

FCO_LtCmdr_Adams says:
CSO: Can you believe it Mackie, me a Lieutenant Commander?

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
::heads back to RR::  XO: What is it Number 1?

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
::sits on the big chair::  FCO:  Yes I can.  Congratulations!

FCO_LtCmdr_Adams says:
::takes her station and checks the readings::

CEO_Lt_On says:
::walks to the FCO::FCO: Good one you deserve it ::shakes her hand::

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
CO: It is about a matter which I think needs to be addressed in private...

FCO_LtCmdr_Adams says:
CSO: Thanks Mackie, see you later?

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
::goes behind his desk again::  XO: Sit...

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
::whispers::  FCO:  You bet, sweetie.  ::smiles::

FCO_LtCmdr_Adams says:
CEO: Thanks Edward.

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
::Sits down::

CMO_LT_Turok says:
::Drafts messages for Krag's contacts and sends them out::

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
CO: It is about Krag's mission.

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
CO: I've seen how permission to pursue this mission was granted.

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
CEO:  Mister On, how are things in ME?

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
XO: I have seen the report...what troubles you with it?

CEO_Lt_On says:
::walks back to his station::

FCO_LtCmdr_Adams says:
CSO: Commander, ETA is now four minutes to the rendezvous. Switching to impulse.

MO_Ens_Krynne says:
::watches the bacteria interact::

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
::turns and sees the CTO, realizes he now has 3 full pips::

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
<SO Duraes>  CSO:  And sir, the Wo'Taj has dropped to impulse as well.

FCO_LtCmdr_Adams says:
::taps the panel and brings the Gryphon to impulse speed::

CTO_Cmdr_Krag says:
::Checks for vessel in the rendezvous area::

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
FCO/SO:  Understood.

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
CO: Now, you're the CO, I have nothing to say about that, but I think that since this involves my past and is therefore personal things, I would have hoped to have been consulted about the idea before it would be approved and made public.

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
CO: Granted, this is my life and yes it would be an asset, but this is also my life we are talking about... And my credibility...

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
*CO*:  Sir, our current ETA is 4 minutes.  The Wo'Taj has dropped to impulse, as we did.

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
CTO:  Congratulations, Commander.  I see you have been promoted.  ::smiles::

CTO_Cmdr_Krag says:
CSO: Yes sir.

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
CO: I don't like being left out of a mission, especially when it involves me and most certainly my life...

FCO_LtCmdr_Adams says:
::carefully slips the new pip on hoping no one sees::

Host Wo`Taj_CO_P`Sant says:
@COM: Gryphon: U.S.S. Gryphon... This is the Wo'Taj.  I see you're on time.

MO_Ens_Krynne says:
::sees the “benign” bacteria killed the other bacteria::

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
XO: Number 1...I am considering this idea and have yet to put it forth.  If you have apprehensions about this...let's talk about it

CTO_Cmdr_Krag says:
::checks the status of the Klingon ships weapons::

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
*CO*:  Sir?

CTO_Cmdr_Krag says:
CSO: The Wo'Taj is hailing us

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
::hits comm badge::  *CSO: Yes Commander?

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
CO: The moment it became "public knowledge" when CTO showed his plan to the senior staff, it became very real to me...

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
*CO*: Sir, the Wo'Taj is hailing us.  We are at 4 minutes from the rendezvous point.

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
CO: This might not be the best of times to talk of this. Let's get back to this conversation later.

FCO_LtCmdr_Adams says:
COM: Wo`Taj: This the Gryphon. Please hold for the duty officer.

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
FCO:  On screen.

FCO_LtCmdr_Adams says:
::looks over at Mackie:: CSO: They await you. On screen sir.

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
XO: Even though there is a plan in the pipe line...I still give the final approval and have yet to do so.  I would only consider a plan with all parties knowing and approve.  Is that understood?

Host Wo`Taj_CO_P`Sant says:
@COM: Gryphon: I will presume you have noticed the fleas you have brought with you. ::gestures away to his hull::

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
*CSO*: On my way...

FCO_LtCmdr_Adams says:
::taps the console and puts the Captain of the Wo`Taj on the view screen::

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
::enters Bridge and heads for his command chair::

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
CO: Next time, I'd like for us to talk of such a mission (involving me) before now... that is all

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
::Follows CO on the bridge::

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
CO:  On screen sir.

CNS_Ens_Mrlr says:
::looks up and puts her PADD away.  Watches the view screen closely::

FCO_LtCmdr_Adams says:
CO: Sir the Captain is Captain P`Sant.

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
::stands and approaches the TAC station, then speaks in low tone::  CTO:  I hope we have no problems with the rank/position situation.

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
::Sits next to the big chair and takes his most serious face on::

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
COM: P'Sant: This is Captain O'Mallory of the Starship Gryphon.  Nice to meet you Captain

Host Wo`Taj_CO_P`Sant says:
@COM: Gryphon: ::narrows his eyes in show of displeasure:: Captain O’Mallory.

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
::Thinks "Well that's not a good start..."::

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
::turns and whispers::  XO: This should be fun...

XO_Cmdr_Taylor says:
CO: ::Whispers:: Almost as much as I expected...

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
::listens to the comm::

CTO_Cmdr_Krag says:
CSO: Why would we sir? We are both Starfleet Officers, unless you plan to dishonor the Federation, Starfleet, or this ship.

CTO_Cmdr_Krag says:
::Retreats a bit to make sure he not on the view screen::

Host CO_Capt_OMallory says:
COM: P'Sant: I would like for us to meet face to face if you agree?

CSO_LtCmdr_MacLeod says:
<SO Duraes> ::runs an extensive sensor sweep of the area::

Host Wo`Taj_CO_P`Sant says:
@COM: Gryphon: O'Mallory: Enough with the Federation pleasantries.  Of course I agree... you want the whole sector to know our business?

CTO_Cmdr_Krag says:
