USS LUNA MISSION
Stardate 10107.15

U.S.S. Luna mission “Face Value“ Part 2.  Stardate 10107.15

Host Chris_N says:
SYNOPSIS: After detecting a space-borne life form while on their journey to Deep Space 21, they discover it is a rather playful, and much smaller version of the “Tin Man” life form discovered by the Enterprise-D.

Each “vessel” tries to learn more about the other.  The Luna scans the life form while “Tin Man jr” tries to communicate with the Luna and express it's curiosity in other forms of Galactic Life.

After a healthy period of probing each other for the answers to each other's questions, the Luna suddenly loses power in one of its rear shield generators.  Coupled with the fact that suddenly and without warning, the Port Nacelle begins to vent plasma.

When the life form notices the hole in the shield grid, it vanishes from sensors near that area.  First the engineers hear sounds moving through the ventilation system and finally a very sick CMO hears the same before a golden 'goo' drips from a vent transforming into a female changeling.

Host CO_Merced says:
::exits ready room for the bridge, relieving the officer, and sitting in his chair::

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: stares down the changeling and growls::  Who are you and why are you on MY ship?:

::in TL on way to bridge after some serious flirting in the lounge::

TO_Zantar says:
::is manning her post::

OPS_Syren says:
::steps up to his station:: Self: first day and already there's a problem

Host Female_Changeling says:
::smiling at the Klingon CMO she studies her entire body closely then transforms into an exact replica::

CSO_Brehgorn says:
::runs internal scan for signs of any foreign life forms aboard the Luna::

CEO_Jokeg says:
::in Main Engineering:: EO: There it is!! There is a plasma imbalance.

CNS_Luchena says:
::arrives on bridge::

TO_Zantar says:
::taps the console lightly::

OPS_Syren says:
::begins preparing an itinerary::

Host CO_Merced says:
Bridge:  Report.

Host A_CMO_Ravenprowler says:
CMO: Hello.  And what species are you?

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: clinches her fists and steps forward. taps her Badge :: Sir, Intruder alert my quarters.::
CEO_Jokeg says:
<EO>::nods:: CEO: Restoring normal balance now.:: taps on the display::

TO_Zantar says:
CO: There is no sign of the entity at present, Sir.

CSO_Brehgorn says:
CO:  I am running scans for evidence of the Tin Man aboard our ship.

OPS_Syren says:
::taps a few more controls:: CO: I'm just about ready to send our revised itinerary Sir

CEO_Jokeg says:
*CO*: We found the cause of the plasma venting, somehow a plasma imbalance was induced, we are correcting it now.

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: stares at the Changeling:: Changeling:  I am Klingon, Why are you on my ship?:

Host A_CMO_Ravenprowler says:
ACTION: An EO Runs up to the CEO with a PADD explaining how the warp nacelle was receiving far too much plasma into its system

CNS_Luchena says:
CO:  Reporting to the bridge as ordered, Sir.  ::stands around looking useless::

Host CO_Merced says:
OPS:  Very good.  Let me know if they reply with anything.

OPS_Syren says:
::establishes a channel with Deep Space 21:: CO: Yes sir

TO_Zantar says:
::looks briefly at the Counselor and then returns her attention to the panel in front of her::

CSO_Brehgorn says:
CO:  Internal scans come up negative for the life form.  Shall I search the ship with a tricorder, sir?

Host A_CMO_Ravenprowler says:
CMO: I am here to learn more about you.  Where is Captain Merced of the Starship Luna?

CNS_Luchena says:
::looks at the TO and thinks she's quite attractive::

Host CO_Merced says:
*CEO*  Thank you Commander.  Any ETA?

CEO_Jokeg says:
::takes the PADD from the EO::EO: Thank you, carry on.

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
::Taps her Badge again.::*CO*: Intruder alert, my quarters, acknowledged?:

OPS_Syren says:
::sends the message to Commander Krakalovich:: 

CSO_Brehgorn says:
;;hears the CMO issue the intruder alert::

Host CO_Merced says:
CSO: Actually, I was hoping you could tell me what happened to the 'Tin Man'.  Did he travel away from us?

Host A_CMO_Ravenprowler says:
<EO> ::runs up to the CEO::  CEO: Sir!  It's... it's... Crewman Jacobs sir.  He's dead!

CEO_Jokeg says:
::reads:: EO: Well work on restoring proper plasma flow into that nacelle.

CSO_Brehgorn says:
CO:  Perhaps he found a way to penetrate our ship...it seems the CMO has an uninvited visitor.

OPS_Syren says:
::fumbles with a few controls:: Self: We don't get to use baby's like these at the academy

CEO_Jokeg says:
::looks at the other EO:: Dead???

Host CO_Merced says:
TO:  ::nods toward her::  Come with me.  ::heads for the TL::

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
Changeling: My Captain? what do you want with my Captain?:

Host A_CMO_Ravenprowler says:
<Krakalovich> COMM: Luna:  U.S.S. Luna please come in.

Host CO_Merced says:
CNS:  Ensign, you too.

CNS_Luchena says:
::nods and follows the CO::

CEO_Jokeg says:
EO: Where is the he?!

Host CO_Merced says:
*CMO*  We are on our way.  What is the nature of the intruder?

OPS_Syren says:
COMM: Krakalovich: U.S.S. Luna here Commander 

CEO_Jokeg says:
EO: Work on that shield generator as well! 

Host A_CMO_Ravenprowler says:
CMO: He seems so nice.  Well, I've gotta go have a look around.  BYE!  ::transforms back into the Golden "Goo" and enters a vent::

Host CO_Merced says:
CSO: You have the bridge. ::steps on the lift::

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: closes the vent ::

CSO_Brehgorn says:
::listens to the OPS and Krakalovich::

CSO_Brehgorn says:
::takes command chair::

Host A_CMO_Ravenprowler says:
<Krakalovich> COMM: Luna: Do I understand you correctly Luna?  You’re going to be late?  We have a serious pirate problem out here.  What in god's name is going on?

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
*CO*: Sir, the Changeling is looking for you and has re-entered the vent system.:

CEO_Jokeg says:
::follows the EO to the body::

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: pulls on some clothes ::

Host CO_Merced says:
*CMO* Changeling?

CNS_Luchena says:
::overhears the CMO's comm and looks around the TL nervously::

Host A_CMO_Ravenprowler says:
<EO> ::points::  CEO: Over there in Jeffries Tube 34 Beta

OPS_Syren says:
::sighs:: COMM: Krakalovich: Yes sir. However we are having a few problems of our own. 

CEO_Jokeg says:
::comes to the Jeffries Tube, entering it with caution::

TO_Zantar says:
::continues to follow the CO::

OPS_Syren says:
::turns to CSO: CSO: anything you want to add, Sir?

Host CO_Merced says:
*Computer* Initiate Changeling Protocols.

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
*CO*: Aye Sir, A changeling, she has transformed into my exact double and then back to a golden goo, she is in the vent system, and has expressed a desire to talk to you.:

Host A_CMO_Ravenprowler says:
<Krakalovich>  COMM: Luna: I don't give a Regalian flea’s thought about your problems.  You were sent here to help us.  Now get underway now.  ::the comm. closes::

CNS_Luchena says:
CO:  Maybe we should take you to a secure area and let it find you.  Find out what it wants?

TO_Zantar says:
CO: Sir, shall I institute emergency procedures?

CSO_Brehgorn says:
OPS:  Inform Mr. Krakalovich that we are undergoing standard protocol for an intruder alert.

Host CO_Merced says:
*Computer* Halt lift and return to the bridge.

CEO_Jokeg says:
<EO>::busily works on restoring normal plasma flow to the port nacelle::

Host CO_Merced says:
TO: Immediately.

Host A_CMO_Ravenprowler says:
ACTION: A ATO arrives on the bridge handing a PADD to the TO reporting on an accidental death near one of the rear Shield Generators

OPS_Syren says:
::cringes at the reply:: CSO: He closed the channel, sir

TO_Zantar says:
::slaps her badge and advises the TAC team of the situation at hand::

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: ties her scrubs around her waist and grabs her tricorder and scans the vent and her quarters.::

CNS_Luchena says:
::checks out the TO some more::

CSO_Brehgorn says:
OPS:  Understood.

TO_Zantar says:
::advises them to apprehend the CMO on site::

CEO_Jokeg says:
::continues through the Jeffries tube, seeing a body::

Host CO_Merced says:
*CMO* Doctor, What is your status now?

OPS_Syren says:
Self: Well I think he took it well

CSO_Brehgorn says:
*CEO* Mr. Jokeg, are engines online?

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
*CO*: I am in quarters Sir, scanning now for any DNA or other information that might help us.:

Host CO_Merced says:
::listens to the TO::  TO: With a changeling aboard, there is no guarantee it will continue to look like the CMO.  We will need to do a deck by deck... Actually... I have an idea... ::exits the lift as it reaches the bridge::

CEO_Jokeg says:
::comes to the body, looking it over:: What in the world...::sees the object that has impaled Crewman Jacobs::

Host CO_Merced says:
*CMO*  Thank you. Are you able to return to duty?

CNS_Luchena says:
::follows the CO wondering what his idea is::

OPS_Syren says:
::taps into internal sensors and begins searching the vents::

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
*CO*: Aye Sir, I will supervise, I probably should not treat I still have a fever.:

TO_Zantar says:
::nods:: CO: Agreed, Sir. My team is aware of the possibilities.

Host Chris_N says:
<Computer> Acknowledged, self-destruct initiated.  T-60 minutes and counting

Host CO_Merced says:
*CMO* Thank you doctor.  Merced out.

CEO_Jokeg says:
*Bridge*: Bridge this is Jokeg, I have found Crewman Jacobs in Jeffries Tube 34 Beta, he has been impaled by a sharp object.

CSO_Brehgorn says:
*CO*  It seems someone has activated the self-destruct systems.

Host CO_Merced says:
::stares in horror at the ceiling::  *Computer* Who initiated self-destruct?

CEO_Jokeg says:
::receives report from Ensign Akers that Warp drive is back online::

OPS_Syren says:
::freezes at the sound of self-destruct::

Host Chris_N says:
<Computer> Order initiated by Captain David Merced.

CEO_Jokeg says:
*CSO*: Warp drive is restored.

CNS_Luchena says:
::senses everyone's anxiety::

CEO_Jokeg says:
::hears the auto destruct announcement:: What now?!?!?!?

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: begins to monitor the bridge.::

OPS_Syren says:
Self: wonderful, my career hasn't even lasted one day

CSO_Brehgorn says:
CO:  Sir, warp engines are online.

TO_Zantar says:
::continues to search the ship for the intruder::

CNS_Luchena says:
::senses irony from somewhere::

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: carefully braids her hair and tucks it down the back of her scrubs.   Exits quarters on her way to the bridge.::

CEO_Jokeg says:
::drags Crewman Jacobs body out of the Jeffries Tube into Main Engineering::*CMO*: Doctor I need a medical team in Main Engineering.

OPS_Syren says:
::calms down and begins scanning J Tube 34 Beta::

TO_Zantar says:
::hears the self-destruct countdown and frowns:: *CO*: Sir? Is there an additional problem?

Host CO_Merced says:
::blinks::   *Computer*  Cancel order self-destruct, authorization Merced Lambda Tau Four.

Host Chris_N says:
<Changeling>  ::Enters the bridge through a crack in the Turbo Lift Doors::

Host Chris_N says:
<Computer> Acknowledged.  Self-Destruct halted at T-57 minutes

CNS_Luchena says:
::sees some goo oozing through a door::  CO:  Sir!  ::points at it::

CEO_Jokeg says:
::hears clanging in the Tube he just came out of:: Ok that’s it. ::pulls his Dag`tagh out and goes back in::

CSO_Brehgorn says:
::looks at the changeling enter the bridge::

TO_Zantar says:
::frowns at the COs failure to reply::

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: exits the TL , pins her badge on her scrubs and enters the bridge right behind the changeling.::

Host Chris_N says:
<Changeling>  ::transforms into a typical Changeling appearance::

OPS_Syren says:
::hears the CNS shout and spins around:: ALL: Great

Host CO_Merced says:
::eyes the ceiling, then turns and sees the 'goo', backing away from it instinctively::

CNS_Luchena says:
::draws a phaser and points it at the changeling doubting it will make any difference::

CSO_Brehgorn says:
::runs and records scans on the changeling's form::

Host CO_Merced says:
*TO* The changeling is on the bridge.

Host Chris_N says:
<Changeling> Bridge: Greetings.  Where may I find Captain Merced of the Starship Luna?

CEO_Jokeg says:
::making his way through the Jeffries Tube, knife ready::

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: scans the changeling with her medical tricorder.::

OPS_Syren says:
::looks on in horror, not sure what to do::

TO_Zantar says:
*CO*: On my way, Sir!

Host CO_Merced says:
Changeling:  I am Captain Merced.  Who are you?

CEO_Jokeg says:
::a group of Engineers take Crewman Jacobs body to Sickbay::

CNS_Luchena says:
All on bridge:  Remain calm.

TO_Zantar says:
::instructs several other tactical officers to meet her on the bridge and runs to the nearest TL::

CNS_Luchena says:
::shaking like a leaf::

OPS_Syren says:
::begins scanning the intruder from his console:: Self: you heard what he said..remain calm

Host Chris_N says:
<Changeling>::smiles happily::  CO: I do not have a name.  I have been traveling by myself as long as I can remember.

CEO_Jokeg says:
::looks around, yells out:: Come out you coward!!! You won't find me an easy target!

CNS_Luchena says:
::tries to sense something from the changeling::

TO_Zantar says:
::arrives at the bridge doors and orders the others to stay put. Casually enters the room, weapon holstered.::

Host Chris_N says:
ACTION: Suddenly the clanging in the Jeffries Tube stops as if whatever it was has stopped in its tracks

Host CO_Merced says:
::cocks his head to the side, odd connections being made inside::  Changeling:  Travel.  Are you the being we were communicating with?

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: scans show exactly the same as those done of Odo on DS9::

CSO_Brehgorn says:
:::wonders if this seemingly friendly being is vicious enough impale a crewman and initiate an auto-destruct::

CEO_Jokeg says:
::grins:: Do I have your attention now?!? Come out!!

CNS_Luchena says:
::sees the TO and holsters his phaser::

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: closes her eyes and tries to recall Dr. Bashir's data.::

CEO_Jokeg says:
::reaches a section where he can stand, stops::

Host Chris_N says:
<Changeling> CO: Yes.  Who else would I be?  Can you not alter your form as well?

CNS_Luchena says:
::whispers::  CO:  The changeling seems harmless, Sir.  It has a wistful, playful feeling about it.

CSO_Brehgorn says:
::runs scans of the ship for signs of any other foreign life forms::

CEO_Jokeg says:
::the team of Engineers arrive in Sickbay, laying Jacobs body on the biobed::

Host Chris_N says:
ACTION:  Suddenly the CEO hears sounds as if something is quietly moving in his direction through the JTs

OPS_Syren says:
::looks at the intruder:: CNS: harmless?

Host CO_Merced says:
::softly:: CNS: The FCO reported much the same from his contact with it while it was appearing as a Tin Man.  Changeling: No, I cannot.  Is this what you meant by coming inside to see?

TO_Zantar says:
::watches and waits::

CNS_Luchena says:
::Whispers::  OPS:  Not intentionally harmful.

CEO_Jokeg says:
::looks in the direction of the movement, growling:: Thats right, come this way. Your lucky I don't have my Bat`leth, no matter, I will gut you with what I have!

Host Chris_N says:
<Changeling>  ::nods at the CO's question::  CO: I have been in search of something for as long as I can remember.  I do not know what yet so in the mean time I am trying to learn as much as I can

OPS_Syren says:
::whispers:: CNS: Harmless beings don't burst onto the bridge of a starship...sir

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
Sickbay Staff:: erects a level 5 containment field, the body is isolated.::

Host Chris_N says:
ACTION: A shadow quickly appears from behind the CEO

CEO_Jokeg says:
::sees the shadow, quickly wheels around::

CNS_Luchena says:
::whispers::  OPS:  Its merely curious, I think.  And unfortunately unaware of what harm it can cause us.

Host Chris_N says:
ACTION: As Jokeg turns around he sees that nothing is there

CEO_Jokeg says:
::is now really mad: So you want to play games!!!

Host CO_Merced says:
::realizes this person has no idea about his people::  Changeling:  We would like to help you if we can.  Do you wish to travel with us?

Host Chris_N says:
<Changeling>  ::looks curiously at the attitude displayed by the Ops Officer::

OPS_Syren says:
::whispers:: CNS: You would know best  ::doesn't entirely believe that theory::

TO_Zantar says:
::Waits for the Captain's signal::

CEO_Jokeg says:
*EO*: Seal Jeffries Tube 34 Beta.

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: clinches her fists and concentrates on staying upright.::

CNS_Luchena says:
::takes in the changeling’s look at OPS and wonders if its telepathic::

Host Chris_N says:
ACTION: An EPS conduit ruptures in the JT where the CEO is

CNS_Luchena says:
~~~Changeling:  Can you hear me?~~~

OPS_Syren says:
::hears an alarm from his console and rushes over::

Host Chris_N says:
<Changeling> CO: Oh yes!  ::grins gleefully::  Can I?

CSO_Brehgorn says:
::notices the conduit rupture on ship scans::  *CEO*:  Are you all right down there, Mr. Jokeg?

OPS_Syren says:
CO: Sir, an EPS conduit just ruptured

Host CO_Merced says:
::turns to the rest of the bridge crew::  ALL:  I think this will be all right.  Return to what you were doing.  CMO:  Doctor, I think you need to report to sickbay.  you're not looking well.

Host CO_Merced says:
OPS:  Where?

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: listens intently to the CSO::

OPS_Syren says:
CO: Jeffries Tube 34 Beta

CNS_Luchena says:
::notes that the changeling does not appear to be telepathic::

Host Chris_N says:
ACTION: The rupture in the EPS conduit approaches the CEO quickly

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
CO: Permission to make sure CMR Jokeg is all right .:

Host CO_Merced says:
*CEO* Commander.  Can I assume you are caring for the EPS conduit that ruptured?

OPS_Syren says:
::tries to reroute power from that conduit::

CEO_Jokeg says:
::sees the rupture:: Oh no...::quickly heads out::

CNS_Luchena says:
::waits for the latest emergency to end so he can suggest that the CO ask the changeling to not mess with any ship's systems::

CSO_Brehgorn says:
::notices the rupture nearing the CEO::  OPS:  Beam the CEO out of the Jeffries Tube.

CEO_Jokeg says:
*Bridge*: I'll get back to you!! ::crawling as fast as he can::

OPS_Syren says:
CSO: Yes sir ::initiates transport::

Host CO_Merced says:
CMO:  Doctor, heal thyself.  Get to sickbay.  One of your staff can care for injuries.

Host Chris_N says:
<Changeling>  ::looks on, interested on everything that is going on around her::

CNS_Luchena says:
::smiles in a friendly way at the changeling::

Host Chris_N says:
ACTION: The CEO materializes in TR 3

Host CO_Merced says:
::frowns at the Commander's abrupt reply, but shrugs it off::

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
CO: Aye, Sir.: :: Turns and leaves the bridge, heading for the TL.::

OPS_Syren says:
ALL: He's in transporter room Three Cir

CEO_Jokeg says:
::appears in TR 3 on his hands and knees::

CNS_Luchena says:
::whispers::  CO:  Sir, perhaps we should lay down some rules for our guest?

CSO_Brehgorn says:
*CEO*  Are you all right, Mr. Jokeg?

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: enters the TL, hanging on to the walls and a wave of dizziness grips her.::

CEO_Jokeg says:
*Bridge*: Something is on the ship, I was pursuing it in the Jeffries Tube when the EPS conduit ruptured, and I am unharmed.

OPS_Syren says:
::continues trying to contain the rupture::

CSO_Brehgorn says:
::hears the CEO's message and runs another round of internal scans for anything unusual::

TO_Zantar says:
::notices something out of the corner of her eye::

Host CO_Merced says:
::turns to the CNS:: CNS: I think you are right.  Could you and TO Zantar find him... ::looks at it for a moment then shrugs:: some quarters, and discuss guest protocols.

TO_Zantar says:
::turns and looks quickly::

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: a wave of blackness covers Tigs as she falls to the floor.::

TO_Zantar says:
::sees nothing and frowns::

CEO_Jokeg says:
*EO*: When it is safe we need to patch that EPS conduit, for now bypass it.

CNS_Luchena says:
CO:  Certainly Sir.

Host CO_Merced says:
OPS: How is that rupture coming?

OPS_Syren says:
CO: I haven't been able to bypass it Sir

CNS_Luchena says:
Changeling:  Would you like us to find you a room of your own?

OPS_Syren says:
CO: But I’m still working

Host CO_Merced says:
*CEO* Something?  You mean beyond the changeling here on the bridge?

TO_Zantar says:
::nods at the CO but is still sure she saw........something::

CSO_Brehgorn says:
CO:  Sir, I am picking up advanced Triolic wavelengths emanating from the bridge.

CEO_Jokeg says:
*Co*: Sir I wasn't able to see it? What changeling?

CEO_Jokeg says:
::making his way to ME as he talks::

Host CO_Merced says:
::turns to the CSO:: CSO: Triolic wavelengths?  You'll have to refresh my memory.  What does that indicate?

TO_Zantar says:
::waits for the CNS to precede her::

Host CO_Merced says:
*CEO* We'll discuss it later.  Can you contain the rupturing EPS conduit?

OPS_Syren says:
::notices a message:: CO: Actually an engineering team has just sealed it. 

CNS_Luchena says:
TO:  Any security matters you would like to discuss with our guest?

CSO_Brehgorn says:
CO: Accessing relevant data on triolic wavelengths sir...standby.

CEO_Jokeg says:
*CO*: I am heading back to ME now.

TO_Zantar says:
::nods slightly:: CNS: I'm sure I can think of a few, Sir.

CSO_Brehgorn says:
CO:  It seems the Enterprise D once detected Triolic wavelengths on Devidia 2.

CEO_Jokeg says:
::enters ME, an EO informing them that the EPS rupture has been contained::

CNS_Luchena says:
TO:  Well, let's try and get her attention then, shall we?

Host CO_Merced says:
::sparks a memory:: CSO: Those beings that were out of phase with ourselves, right?

TO_Zantar says:
::nods grimly::

Host Chris_N says:
<changeling> CO: What is Triolic Wavelengths?

CSO_Brehgorn says:
CO:  Right...it seems that those beings traveled back to 19th Century Earth to harness this energy from Cholera victims.

OPS_Syren says:
::suspects that the changeling is involved in the problem and glares at it for a second::

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: breathing becomes labored as her respiratory system starts to fail.::

CNS_Luchena says:
::gives OPS a stern look::

Host CO_Merced says:
Changeling:  It's a form of radiation.  Would you mind accompanying the Counselor and Ensign Zantar to your quarters?

Host Chris_N says:
<Changeling>  ::looks a little frightened under the Ops Officer's glare::

OPS_Syren says:
::notices the CNS and turns back to his console::

CNS_Luchena says:
::gestures toward the TL and approaches it::  Changeling:  Come with us.

CSO_Brehgorn says:
::tries to compensate internal sensor scans to match for slight time variations::

OPS_Syren says:
Self: I'm not even safe inside my own head

Host Chris_N says:
<Changeling>  CO: Oh... OK.  I don't feel very safe around him.  ::points and follows the CNS and TO::

CEO_Jokeg says:
::heads to Sickbay to see if they know what happened to Crewman Jacobs::

Host CO_Merced says:
CSO: Or rather drained them of life-force leaving them to be diagnosed as cholera victims by doctors who didn't know better.

CSO_Brehgorn says:
CO: Absolutely, sir.

CNS_Luchena says:
::proceeds to TL and waits for the door to open::

TO_Zantar says:
::nods and smiles at the changeling and takes the rear::

Host CO_Merced says:
CSO: Can you adjust our internal sensors to the phase variance that the Enterprise crew used on Devidia?

Host Chris_N says:
ACTION: Suddenly a scrawny being with a large orifice in its forehead appears on the bridge from the CSO's internal scan compensations

CSO_Brehgorn says:
CO: Already done, sir. ::points to the being;:

CNS_Luchena says:
::watches as the TL doors open::

OPS_Syren says:
::turns around when the intruder phases in:: Self: What is this? A vacation spot?

CNS_Luchena says:
::sees the CMO in a heap on the floor::

Host CO_Merced says:
::reaches for a phaser, then realizes he doesn't have one::  Being: Who are you?

CEO_Jokeg says:
<EO>*CEO*: Sir Jeffries Tube 34 Beta has been purged and is safe to enter.

CEO_Jokeg says:
*EO*: On my way.

CNS_Luchena says:
*Sickbay*:  Medical emergency.  Beam the CMO to sickbay!

CSO_Brehgorn says:
CO:  I'm not sure it will be able to hear you, sir...we are aware of it, but it may not be aware of us in the here and now.

Host Chris_N says:
<Devidian> CO: I am here to warn you, not to proceed on your mission.  It is dangerous where you are going.

TO_Zantar says:
::hears the commotion behind her::

CSO_Brehgorn says:
Self: Then again...

OPS_Syren says:
::doesn't feel safe anymore:: 

Host Chris_N says:
ACTION: The CMO is beamed to Main Sickbay

CEO_Jokeg says:
::stops by his quarters grabbing his bat`leth::

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: materializes on a bio bed, attended by half the Sickbay staff.::

TO_Zantar says:
::is torn between two aliens::

CNS_Luchena says:
::now that that emergency is taken care off, turns to see what is happening behind him on the bridge::

Host Chris_N says:
<Devidian> CO: I tried to disable your ship, I tried to do everything to warn you off.

Host CO_Merced says:
::wants to go into his ready room and bang his head against the wall for a few hours to make it stop hurting::  Devidian:  Perhaps we could discuss this in my ready room.

OPS_Syren says:
::divides his suspicion between the two aliens:: 

CSO_Brehgorn says:
Self:  I wonder if murdering a crewman is part of the "warning".

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: impending respiratory failure is diagnosed and Dr. Ravenprowler is place on a ventilator, at high settings, and placed in isolation.::

CEO_Jokeg says:
::walks as crewman look at him, he reenters ME and walks to the Jeffries Tube, opening it and entering, looking at the burnt walls::

Host Chris_N says:
<Devidian> ::follows the CO::

CNS_Luchena says:
::turns to the changeling beside him::  Changeling: Off we go, then.  ::steps into TL::

OPS_Syren says:
CSO: That's a new concept isn't it Sir?

OPS_Syren says:
CSO: Kill the crew to save the crew

Host Chris_N says:
<Changeling> CNS: Finally.  Where are we going?

::shrugs and follows::

Host CO_Merced says:
*CEO* Commander, I think, unless we have more than two intruders, we have found the intruder you were talking about.  Would you join me in my ready room?

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: Several of the Senior Medical staff are writing orders for IV's and antibiotics, in a rush to help the CMO.::

CNS_Luchena says:
Changeling:  We'll find you some quarters and then maybe go to the lounge and show you the games there.

Host CO_Merced says:
::Leaves the CSO in charge of the bridge and enters the ready room offering the alien the guest chair, taking a seat behind his desk::

Host Chris_N says:
<Changeling> CNS: Ooo.. games!  I played some nifty games on Desora five.

CEO_Jokeg says:
*CO*: On my way. ::directs two Engineers to arm themselves and repair the conduit, heads to the CO's ready Room::

TO_Zantar says:
::sighs::

CNS_Luchena says:
::riding along in the TL:  Changeling:  What sort of games do you like?

CSO_Brehgorn says:
OPS:  It may be appropriate to prepare a message to our deceased crewman's family.  ::assumes command chair::

OPS_Syren says:
CSO: Yes Sir

Host CO_Merced says:
Devidian:  What manner of danger are we facing, in your estimation?

Host Chris_N says:
<Devidian> ::sits at the appointed seat::  CO: I do not have a lot of time.  You must turn back now, and tell your people to evacuate that station of yours

Host Chris_N says:
<Changeling> CNS: I once played something called chess.  ::grins with glee::  Do you have that one?

OPS_Syren says:
::opens the crewman's personnel file:: 

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: ABG's show Dr. Ravenprowler is in respiratory acidosis, the staff rushes to administer some bicarb and volume.::

CEO_Jokeg says:
::enters the bridge and heads to the Ready Room, not knocking just entering, bat`leth still in hand::

Host CO_Merced says:
Devidian:  You haven't answered the most important question: Why?

CNS_Luchena says:
::exits TL on some deck or other::  Changeling:  Yes.  We have regular chess and three-dimensional chess.  ::arrives at an empty quarters and enters::

Host Chris_N says:
<Devidian> CO: Because death awaits you all.

CSO_Brehgorn says:
;:notices the CEO enter the Ready Room armed::

CNS_Luchena says:
Changeling:  This will be your room while you are here with us.  The TO has a few requests to make of you before we go and play.

Host Chris_N says:
ACTION: Suddenly the Red Alert goes off as the Triolic Energy increases in the CO's Ready Room for an instant as the Devidian disappears

OPS_Syren says:
::begins writing a standard message to the crewman's mother:: CSO: Anything special you want to add Sir

CSO_Brehgorn says:
OPS: Report.

TO_Zantar says:
::rocks back on her feet::

OPS_Syren says:
CSO: There was a surge of triolic energy in the ready room

Host CO_Merced says:
::eyes the CEO, but ignores the rudeness for a few reasons::  Devidian:  Pardon my incredulity, but your people's known record in dealing with my species in particular do not show a regard for our well-being.  So I must... ::sighs:: Self:  Wonderful.  *CSO* Report.

CNS_Luchena says:
::notices the red alert and wonders what could possibly be going wrong now::

OPS_Syren says:
CSO: I'm not reading the Devidian anymore

CEO_Jokeg says:
::sees the creature and swings his bat`leth at it, missing as it disappears::

Host Chris_N says:
<Changeling> ::enters the room::  CNS: Three-dimensional chess?? Never heard of that.  Will you teach me?

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: a central line is started right subclavian, and a  liter of saline is pumped into the Klingon Doctor.::

TO_Zantar says:
Changeling: Please refrain from assuming the form of other beings. We allow no weapons on board........

CNS_Luchena says:
Changeling:  You bet.  ::gives the Changeling a big kidlike grin::

CSO_Brehgorn says:
*CO* A burst of triolic energy came from the ready room, the Devidian is gone.

CEO_Jokeg says:
::looks around for it::

Host Chris_N says:
<Changeling> TO: But why....  ::sulks::

OPS_Syren says:
CSO: Sir, Triolic energy is fatal to humanoids

CSO_Brehgorn says:
OPS:  Perhaps you should let the CEO review the note before sending it...it was his crewman, and he may want to add something.

Host CO_Merced says:
*CSO* ::wry grin::  I noticed that he isn't here, or at least not visible.  You say there is still energy emanating from the room?

OPS_Syren says:
CSO: perhaps we should evacuate the room

OPS_Syren says:
::sends the message to the CEO's desk::

Host CO_Merced says:
::sighs heavily, then shrugs, turning to the CEO::  CEO: no matter how bad your day has been, I promise you mine has been worse.

CSO_Brehgorn says:
*CO* The energy seems to have dissipated.  There is no trace of the Devidian, but OPS has informed me that triolic energy is fatal to humans, so I recommend evacuation of the Ready Room.

TO_Zantar says:
Changeling: For your safety and ours.

CEO_Jokeg says:
::looks at the Captain, can't help but too chuckle:: CO: Try me....
