Episode 74 "Relics, Part 3":  The Creature is on the Rampage in the New Berlin Museum on Luna.  It has kidnapped Cmdr Dickinson and Lt Singh and has hung them up for his next meal.   The rest of the crew have congregated in the cargo area where the artifacts are being stored to plan the next route of attack.  Its been two hours since the missing crew went missing.  Will the crew be able to catch the creature since in under 12 hrs the museum will be opening up to a grand gala and it will be its feeding time again or will the crew destroy it therefore eliminating a very unique creature.

OPS_Owens says:
@::at his console on the Luna attempting to keep a lock on all the commbadges::
CSO_Singh says:
::Quietly::  *CO*:  Captain...?
Host XO_Savar says:
::Hanging upside down in the basement, he's managed to free his upper torso, and does a sit up to try to work his legs out::
TO_Rowe says:
@::stands at tac 1 monitoring the security fields and security systems of the museum::
CEO_O`Guinn says:
::stands looking around the room:: CO: Sir with all due respect I am going to have to ask you to go back to the ship.
CSO_Singh says:
::Watches the XO, her hearing strained to the max::
Host CO_Harm says:
*CSO* Harm here, report Lieutenant.
OPS_Owens says:
@TO: Any reports from the security teams on the surface?
FCO_Hanover says:
::stands nearby but turned looking over the artifacts as if trying to find a key to this puzzle::
TO_Rowe says:
@::taps a few buttons on the console:: OPS: Nothing any more strange than what has happened already, I am sending more teams down as we speak.
CSO_Singh says:
*CO*:  Sir, I am free and the XO should be soon as well.  He says that you should make sure the building is clear, and if you would be so kind as to get us?
CEO_O`Guinn says:
CTO: Mr. Jarot get Phaser rifles down here for your teams yourself and me.
Host CO_Harm says:
CTO/FCO/CEO: Alpha team, lock and load, time to go hunting.

ACTION:  The AT can hear crashing and banging as the creature moves through the museum.  It is not in a good mood.

OPS_Owens says:
@::nods:: TO: Acknowledged, but keep in mind we don't want to saturate the scene with your people.
SO_Silver says:
@::Growls at the computer::  Computer:  Nooo... that is not what I need...  let's try this again...  ::Goes back to manipulating sensors::
FCO_Hanover says:
CO: With all due respect sir since the XO has been captured I think regulations require that you not be put into danger sir.

ACTION:  Silver almost has it but is frustrated.  OPS notices the frustration..

Host XO_Savar says:
::Manages to break the pipe from around his legs... he grabs hold of the pipes still secured to the wall and drops himself to the floor::
CEO_O`Guinn says:
CO: Aye sir.... but I still feel you should go back to the ship with the XO already in harms way.
OPS_Owens says:
@::hears the SO::  SO: Problem?
CTO_Jarot says:
::hands the CEO one the modified phaser rifles::  CEO: Way ahead of you, Sir..  ::smiles::  Ensign Rowe should be distributing them as we speak...
CEO_O`Guinn says:
CTO: Good to here Lt. ::takes phaser rifle checking the charge::
TO_Rowe says:
@::suddenly feels like he is forgetting something:: Self: What did I forget, what did I forget........
SO_Silver says:
@OPS:  The computer and I are having a bit of a disagreement.  ::Sighs::  The sensors were not set up for so fine an adjustment of something so... limited and at this distance.
Host CO_Harm says:
CEO/FCO: Your concern will be noted in my report.  Now hand me a phaser rifle and lets bag this beast.
CEO_O`Guinn says:
CO: Weapons setting sir? ::said through gritted teeth::
Host CO_Harm says:
*CSO* We are on our way, can you tell where you are.
FCO_Hanover says:
::looks at the CEO and CTO:: CTO/CEO: Any extra phaser rifles?
CSO_Singh says:
*CO*:  Captain?  Are you there?  ::Looks at the XO::
OPS_Owens says:
@SO: Disagreement?  I need not remind a science officer that the computer is an inanimate machine.  You can not have a disagreement with something that is not alive.  That is completely absurd.
Host CO_Harm says:
CEO: Deadly force is authorized.
CSO_Singh says:
*CO*:  We are in the basement... assuming this place only has one.
CTO_Jarot says:
::hears the CEO and FCO's comments and agrees but decides to keep his mouth shut as it doesn't help the situation at hand, takes one of the phaser rifles and hands it to the FCO::  FCO: Here you go...
Host XO_Savar says:
CSO: You said you saw a door at the top of the stairs?  Perhaps we could find out way out of this basement so that we have a better frame of reference.
Host CO_Harm says:
::Looks on his map and finds the nearest entrance to the basement::
FCO_Hanover says:
::takes the phaser rifle and checks it over:: CTO: That will work.
CEO_O`Guinn says:
CO: Deadly force aye. ::sets rifle to max:: Ok sir lets rock and roll.
SO_Silver says:
@::Looks at OPS frustration and annoyance evident in her eyes::  OPS:  Fine, you tell the computer that.  ::Steps away, crossing her arms.::
CTO_Jarot says:
::grins::  FCO: You know how to operate it..?
OPS_Owens says:
@::makes a note in the SO's file to see the CNS about anger management::
Host CO_Harm says:
*CSO/XO* Take cover and stay put we will come to you, notify us if you have further encounter with the creature.
CSO_Singh says:
::Looks at the door which seems a long distance away from where she is at, but in reality is not.::

ACTION:  As Lt Singh concentrates on the door, all of a sudden it doesn't seem so distance for she is standing before it.   The XO raises an eyebrow.

CTO_Jarot says:
::smiles::  FCO: Just teasing ya...  ::readies is phaser and glances at the CO::  CO: We'd better get going then...  ::gives him a confident nod::
Host XO_Savar says:
::Raises an eyebrow::
CSO_Singh says:
::Blinks::
Host CO_Harm says:
CEO: The creature is the one who is in Harm's way if you catch my drift Commander
TO_Rowe says:
@::looks at the OPS:: OPS: I really feel like we should be down there.
FCO_Hanover says:
CTO: I should hope so considering I used to be the CTO of the Luna. ::sets for max and prepares to head out::
CEO_O`Guinn says:
CO: Aye sir.
CSO_Singh says:
::Looks back at the first officer, shock evident on her face.::
Host CO_Harm says:
::Grabs a phaser rifle and attaches a type two hand phaser to his belt for good measure.::
OPS_Owens says:
@ TO: I think it may be a wise decision for you to beam down and assist the CTO with the extra forces you sent.  I agree.  Permission granted.
FCO_Hanover says:
CO: Sir do you have a knife just in case?
SO_Silver says:
@::Waiting for OPS to do the job::
Host CO_Harm says:
FCO: Can you tote some of that slime wash compound that the medics brought down.
Host XO_Savar says:
CSO: Let's find out where we really are.
OPS_Owens says:
@::adds another note in the SO's file about wasting time at a precious moment waiting for another officer to do the totally absurd::
FCO_Hanover says:
CO: Aye sir. ::picks up a pack with some of the slime wash in it and secures it to her back::
Host CO_Harm says:
FCO: I wish I did, my Bat'leth would be a preferable backup.
CEO_O`Guinn says:
::moves to the door:: CTO: With captains permission you have the point. ::looks to the captain::
CSO_Singh says:
::Stares at the door::  XO:  Yes sir... as soon as you join me.
Host CO_Harm says:
ALL: Move out
Host CO_Harm says:
ALL: When we make contact I want the team to flank out, hit the reature from multiple vectors.
Host XO_Savar says:
::Walks to the stairs, and looks up at the door, then takes a tentative step up::
SO_Silver says:
@::Tilts her head::  OPS:  One should keep thoughts to themselves if they have not the answer.  ::The computer beeps, completing her last commands.  Turns back to finish the final touches.::
FCO_Hanover says:
CO: Aye sir. ::follows along trying to stay close to the CO::
CEO_O`Guinn says:
::waits for the CTO to move then follows behind him rifle at the ready:: CO: Aye sir.
TO_Rowe says:
@::Glances at the OPS, and motions for the TO at tac 2 to come over and whispers in the officers ear:: TO: While I am gone, only give access through the fields to the AT and initiate a tachyon scans of the museum, and watch for shadows on the scans; keep the CTO and I informed. ::with that said he heads for the nearest Transporter room::
CTO_Jarot says:
::nods at the CEO::  CEO/CO: Aye, Sir...  ::heads into the corridor, aiming his phaser, ready to fire at anything that moves::
CSO_Singh says:
::Looks down, hoping she doesn't have to explain what she doesn't have an answer for.  Then turns and puts her ear to the door, listening::
OPS_Owens says:
@::refrains himself from making another note at the SO's expense::
OPS_Owens says:
@::sees a pattern forming::
Host CO_Harm says:
::Waits behind the CEO, thinking this squad would look good in Marine greens::
SO_Silver says:
@::Finishes the final calibration::  Got it...  Now, computer, lets try it again this time...  ::Activates the sensors::
Host XO_Savar says:
::Walks to the top of the stairs::
TO_Rowe says:
@::stands on the transporter pad and nods at the chief::
Toni_Kristy says:
::Stays closely behind the CO::

ACTION:  All of a sudden the SO gets excited.

CEO_O`Guinn says:
::scans ahead rifle moving with eyes:: CTO: Slow and easy we don't want any surprises.

ACTION:  The replacement TO watches the tachyon scans carefully... many shadows appear and one shadow is unidentified.

SO_Silver says:
@Self: Yes... good computer.  OPS:  I have the creature on sensors.
Host XO_Savar says:
::Listens as well::
CTO_Jarot says:
::carefully moves along the corridor, glances from side to side trying to sense ahead a few meters to give him a better reaction time::  CEO: Affirmative...I'm sensing a few meters ahead...so far nothing...
OPS_Owens says:
@::opens a COM to the surface at the SO's words::  SO: Where is it?
Host SM_Arlene says:
<Replacement TO> OPS:  I got an unidentified movement... Its heading back to the basement, its behind the AT Sir!!!!!  ::Practically jumping up and down.::
CSO_Singh says:
::Reaches a hand to open the door as she hears nothing but silence::
TO_Rowe says:
::materializes on the surface, looking around:: *CO* Sir, I have beamed to the surface, I am in the artifact room I am heading your way.
OPS_Owens says:
@COM: AT: Look out.  The creature is directly behind you!
CEO_O`Guinn says:
ALL: Spread and cover now!!
SO_Silver says:
@OPS:  Confirmed...

ACTION:  The Replacement TO faints with all the excitement.

Host CO_Harm says:
*TO* Understood, watch out for the FCO don't surprise her.
SO_Silver says:
@::Looks worried::
OPS_Owens says:
@SO: Can the way you modified the sensors to scan for the creature work with the transporters?
CSO_Singh says:
::Opening the door, looks up at the XO::
FCO_Hanover says:
::looks at the CO a bit puzzled::
Toni_Kristy says:
::Shakes slightly and gives the Captain a worried look::
CEO_O`Guinn says:
::takes cover in a door way turns the sweeps rifle across the corridor::
CTO_Jarot says:
::hears the OPS's comment grumbles as he heads to the side, pushing his body to the wall as he glances to the way they came aiming his phaser::
TO_Rowe says:
::begins to head slowly toward the CO and he team and hears the CEO yell and stops a moment to set his rifle to max::
FCO_Hanover says:
::pushes the CO towards cover:: CO: You heard them the "thing" is behind us.

ACTION:  The AT gets a whiff of a strong odor...  they are brought to their knees.

Host CO_Harm says:
FCO: The TO is advancing on our position from the rear, don't shoot him by mistake ::smiles::
Host XO_Savar says:
::Watches intently as the door swings open, looking for anything... the creature, or hints as to where they are::
SO_Silver says:
@::Shakes her head::  OPS:  No... the sensors are working on the creatures scent.  Has nothing to do with the mixed DNA.  However, I can beam the AT up.
SO_Silver says:
@OPS:  Should I beam them aboard?
FCO_Hanover says:
CO: Very funny Captain... ::shakes head:: Please take cover sir I don't need both command officers missing.
Host CO_Harm says:
::Senses the odor, and hand signals the team to fan out::
OPS_Owens says:
@COM: AT: Do you wish an emergency beam-out, or perhaps be beamed behind the creature?
CSO_Singh says:
XO:  Nothing...
CEO_O`Guinn says:
*OPS*: Negative Lt.
Host CO_Harm says:
::Ducks into a doorway in the hall, carefully scanning for a visual on the creature::

ACTION:  As Ensign Thati comes up behind the AT he spots the creature.

CEO_O`Guinn says:
::moves across the hall takes cover behind a statue::
Host XO_Savar says:
::Tentatively sniffs the air...::
OPS_Owens says:
@:watches as the Med Team remove the Replacement TO while another arrives to take the post::
CTO_Jarot says:
::tries not to breath as he smells the odor and moves slowly to the way they came, aiming his phaser and putting it on wide spread::
FCO_Hanover says:
::takes cover and scans for the "thing" with phaser rifle at the ready::
Host SM_Arlene says:
<Replacement to the Replacement TO> ::has no idea what the other TO was doing so does standard scans which do not pick up the creature.::

ACTION:  The creature breaks into the clear with Ensign Thati close on its heals.

Host CO_Harm says:
::Signals for the CEO and CTO to take the opposite side of the hallway as he and the FCO::
SO_Silver says:
@::Keeps a lock on the team::  OPS:  Once that creature gets any of its essence on any one, I won't be able to beam them up.
Host CO_Harm says:
::Fires on the creature, weapon set for heavy stun::
FCO_Hanover says:
CO: There it is sir. ::tries not to breath too deep and fires on the creature::
CSO_Singh says:
XO:  Sir?  Are we waiting for anything specific?  If not... can we please get out of here?
CEO_O`Guinn says:
::nods moves across the hall stops in the door way aims and fires::

ACTION:  Cmdr Savar and Lt Singh have exited the basement moving up the stairs to the upper level they smell a strong stink, the XO sees the Capt in position to fire.

CTO_Jarot says:
::moving in opposite side of the CO towards their starting point, hoping to catch the creature that way, having his phaser aimed::
TO_Rowe says:
::runs, following the creature firing at it every chance he gets with his rifle set to max::
Toni_Kristy says:
::Not sure what to do, so begins moving away from the firing and the creature::
Host XO_Savar says:
::His Vulcan hearing picks up the phaser fire:: CSO: The creature has returned... and the away team has found us.
CSO_Singh says:
::Not realizing how fast they were actually moving, smelling the creature, flattens herself against the wall, her heart ready to escape again::  XO:  What do you want me to do?
OPS_Owens says:
@SO: Just hold off a minute.  You have your orders.

ACTION:  The creature howls every time it's hit, blue purplish ooze seeps out of it, but the creature is intent on the people before it.

Host CO_Harm says:
*OPS* We have engaged the creature, do you have a lock on us?
FCO_Hanover says:
::continues firing on the thing::
CEO_O`Guinn says:
::carefully aims at the creatures head and slowly squeezes the trigger::
SO_Silver says:
@*CO*:  Yes sir... just don't get any of it on you.
OPS_Owens says:
@*CO* Midshipman Silver has had a lock on you the entire time Captain.
Host CO_Harm says:
*OPS* Have a secondary team beamed in behind the creature to attack from the rear with the TO
FCO_Hanover says:
CO: What about this slime away stuff that was used to clean the others? Do you think it might do some damage to this thing?
OPS_Owens says:
@*CO* Acknowledged Sir.  ::motions for the Rep_Rep_TO to do so::
TO_Rowe says:
::sees all the other phaser fire and continues to give the creature a pounding with his fire:: Self: I hope this is doing for good than it seems.
CTO_Jarot says:
::getting a visual on the creature he hesitates for a second seeing it's size, then pushes through and heads in, firing his phaser at wide maximum setting::
Host CO_Harm says:
*OPS* Where is the nearest security field from our present location?
CSO_Singh says:
::Looks up a the first officer::
Host XO_Savar says:
::Realizes they are both rather unarmed:: CSO: I do not believe there is anything we can do, but wait for this to play out.  We are unarmed, and as much as I detest simply killing the creature, I doubt any of us could communicate with it, even me.

ACTION:  The creature straightens and busts through a wall, unfortunately Toni is there and is dragged by the creature screaming.

OPS_Owens says:
@::looks to the Rep_Rep_TO to tell him where the nearest security fields are::
Host XO_Savar says:
CSO: Unless we can determine intelligence other than instinct...
CEO_O`Guinn says:
CTO: After the blasted thing!
TO_Rowe says:
::runs through the hole in the wall, still firing he tries to make a diving leap to grab Toni from the creature::
Toni_Kristy says:
::Screams at the top of her lungs and tries to hit and kick it while being carried away::
Host CO_Harm says:
::Signals his team forward to where the creature went through the wall::
CTO_Jarot says:
::nods::  CEO: Aye !!  ::quickly heads into the hole that the creature left and follows the TO::
Host XO_Savar says:
::Hears the creature move off, and exits the stairwell:: CO: Captain.
CSO_Singh says:
XO:  I don't think so... so far it has relied on its stomach, that suggests instinct.  ::looks at the creature, wondering if possibly... she would never be able to explain it.... at least not truthfully.::
Host CO_Harm says:
XO: Good to see you Commander.  The creature has the curator.
CEO_O`Guinn says:
::stands up running towards the hole:: FCO: Stay close to the captain. ::runs through the hole.
FCO_Hanover says:
CEO: I plan on it sir. ::stays with the CO::
Host XO_Savar says:
CO: Captain, has there been any attempt to communicate with the creature?  It may not understand spoken language, but perhaps telepathy?
CEO_O`Guinn says:
::follows the CTO and TO keeping phaser held ready::
FCO_Hanover says:
CO: What about the idea to use the slime away stuff and try and melt that thing sir?

ACTION:  The CTO and CEO are running down the creature.... they find Toni, bleeding and bruised, but still alive and screaming on the floor.

Host CO_Harm says:
FCO: Please get the XO, and CSO some of that body wash.

ACTION:  The TO is beside her, trying to calm her down...  He is bruised but otherwise unhurt.

FCO_Hanover says:
::takes the pack off her back and hands it to the XO:: XO: It's in there sir.
CSO_Singh says:
XO:  The creature came from the box, I believe from other statues... maybe we could get it back into one?  Something in that room?
CEO_O`Guinn says:
::slides to a stop by Toni:: *Luna*: Get me a medical team down here on the double.
Toni_Kristy says:
::Hits the TO:: TO: don't touch me...get back...
FCO_Hanover says:
CSO: Harmony good to see you safe. ::pulls out her extra phaser and hands it to her::
CEO_O`Guinn says:
TO: Stay with her.
CTO_Jarot says:
::sees Toni and kneels down to her, checking her polse and vital signs::  TO: Mr. Rowe, stay with her and call medicals teams to the scene... we'll go after it.. ::glances at the CEO::  CEO: Let's go...
Host CO_Harm says:
XO/CSO: you two up to join the hunt?
TO_Rowe says:
Toni: Hey, hey I'm only trying to help; just calm down......
Host CO_Harm says:
*CEO* Report Commander?
OPS_Owens says:
@::sends a signal to Sickbay to prepare for an emergency beam do to the CEO's location::
CEO_O`Guinn says:
::nods to the CTO::
Host XO_Savar says:
CO: Captain, there may not need to be a hunt.  We need not destroy this creature if we can find a way to recapture it, if we assume it came from the missing statue.
Toni_Kristy says:
::Moves away from the CEO::  TO: don't ...it hurts...
OPS_Owens says:
@::initiates the transport::
CSO_Singh says:
::Considers::  CO:  I need to get back to the main room... ::Looks at Ana::

TO_Rowe says:
Toni: It will be fine, there is help on the way, just calm down.

Host CO_Harm says:
*CEO* Pursue but do not engage, unless you have to.

ACTION:  Med team appears beside Thati and Toni.

CEO_O`Guinn says:
::moves down the hall careful scanning with hall spots the creature:: CTO: Hold.
Host CO_Harm says:
XO: I am listening Commander
SO_Silver says:
@OPS:  The creature appears to be stopped.
FCO_Hanover says:
::looks at each of them:: Self: Fine just ignore me...at least you could reply and say it wasn't a good idea. ::slumps against the wall::
Toni_Kristy says:
::Jumps at the TO and wraps her arms around him:: TO: thank you..
CEO_O`Guinn says:
*CO*: Captain we have the creature... It is wounded and looks frighten.
CTO_Jarot says:
::nods at the CEO and takes his tricorder out and scans the creature::  CEO: It seems hurt, Sir...
Host SM_Arlene says:
<Med Team>  ::Pull Toni off Thati.::
Host CO_Harm says:
*CEO* Fall back, but keep it in sight.
Host XO_Savar says:
CO: It looks frightened... that may indicate an intelligence that can be reasoned with...
OPS_Owens says:
@SO: Stopped?  As in preparing for a trap attack?
CSO_Singh says:
::Taking the phaser::  FCO:  Ana... we should return to the main room.
TO_Rowe says:
::motions to the med team, and pries himself from the curator:: Toni: I will be back. ::he starts a slow trot toward the CTO and CEO::
Host CO_Harm says:
XO: You and the CSO are with me.
FCO_Hanover says:
::feels Harmony looking at her:: CSO: Harmony I checked over everything...I don't think anything in there is the cause of that things appearance nor of its demise.
CEO_O`Guinn says:
*CO*: Aye sir.
CEO_O`Guinn says:
::motions the CTO back::
OPS_Owens says:
@::checks the ship's locks on the AT::
Toni_Kristy says:
TO: don't go..:: Starts to get teary::
Host CO_Harm says:
*OPS* Transport the XO, FCO and CSO and myself to the CEO's location
CSO_Singh says:
::Feels like rolling her eyes at Ana and sighs as she turns back to the captain::  CO:  Aye sir.
OPS_Owens says:

FCO_Hanover says:
CSO: Don't worry he is ignoring me as well.

ACTION:  Cornered the creature gets into a crouch position.

TO_Rowe says:
::comes up to the CEO/CTO and readies he rifle wondering why they haven't finished it off::
CEO_O`Guinn says:
::motions to the TO to hold still::
CSO_Singh says:
FCO:  Ana, there is nothing more dangerous then a wounded creature put in a corner.
CTO_Jarot says:
::nods at the CEO and pulls back a bit and tries to analyze the sensor readings::  CEO: These are some interesting sensor readings, Sir...

ACTION;  The XO, CO, FCO, CSO are transported to the CEO, CTO and TO's position.

CEO_O`Guinn says:
CTO: What do you have?
Toni_Kristy says:
::Grumbles at the Med team::
TO_Rowe says:
::reluctantly, holds his ground::
FCO_Hanover says:
CSO: I know that Harmony I just don't have any ideas...I thought back over what you said though...I think it might be something like a gargoyle from ancient stories. ::waits for Harmony to bust out laughing at her for that one::
CEO_O`Guinn says:
CO: Creature is wounded sir.... What do you want to do.
Host CO_Harm says:
TO: Can you make contact, are we dealing with an intelligence or not?
CTO_Jarot says:
CEO: As we thought the creature has to eat living objects in order to get DNA... hence the mixed DNA inside it...  scans also detect no real intelligence... only an instinct behavior...
Host XO_Savar says:
TO: If you do not wish to make contact.. ::hesitantly:: I will
CSO_Singh says:
::Seeing the creature, gives it a try, nothing to really loose::
TO_Rowe says:
::looks at the CO:: CO: I tried to refrain from that ::he recalls last time he made contact:: but I will if I must.........
CSO_Singh says:
FCO:  Cover for me a moment?  I am going to try... never mind, you will know if I succeed.
CEO_O`Guinn says:
CTO: Acknowledged ::looks to the captain:: CO: Well sir?

ACTION:  A communication comes into the Luna from SFC.

FCO_Hanover says:
CSO: Try what Harmony? ::becoming alarmed::
TO_Rowe says:
::tries to make a telepathic connection with the creature::

ACTION:  The Med Team return from the surface but accidentally beam to the bridge with Toni in tow.

CEO_O`Guinn says:
CSO: Lt what are you doing?
CSO_Singh says:
::Looking at the creature, imagines him as a statue, cold, unharmed, as he should have been should she have seen it before.  Doesn't hear anyone beside her.::
Host XO_Savar says:
::Briefly glances at the Captain, pondering the radical change::
OPS_Owens says:
@::watches them arrive on the bridge::  Med_Team: Why the bloody hell didn't you take them to Sickbay?
Toni_Kristy says:
@::Looks around the bridge and waves::
Host Adm_Xavier says:
@COM: Luna:  Good Day Lt.  We haven't met, I'm Adm Xavier.  What in the blue blazes is going on!?!?!?!?!  You were to check out artifacts not go shoot up a  museum....!
SO_Silver says:
@::Looks at Toni::
SO_Silver says:
@::Then looks at the screen and smiles as OPS gets to reply to the admiral::
Toni_Kristy says:
@::Gives the SO a confused look:: SO: where am i...?
TO_Rowe says:
::looks at the CO:: CO: I am getting nothing but pure instinct sir, I tried to calm it but I don't know how much I did in that manner.
SO_Silver says:
@Toni:  Welcome aboard the USS Luna.
Host Adm_Xavier says:
<Med Team>  ::Races off the bridge forgetting the patient.::
OPS_Owens says:
@::keeps his demeanor::  COM: Adm: Aye ma'am.  Unfortunately there appears to be a reptilian based creature at the museum killing people.  The details are beyond me at this moment.
Host CO_Harm says:
CEO: We may have to kill it, but if we are dealing with a unique creature that is a choice only of a last resort.
FCO_Hanover says:
::stays close to Harmony still trying to figure out what she is doing::
CEO_O`Guinn says:
CO: I don't see as we have a choice sir.
TO_Rowe says:
CO: Sir, I must remind you, there is also much chaos with this creature.
Host Adm_Xavier says:
@COM: OPS:  Listen handsome, I've been around this quadrant too many times to believe that story... so unless you want a personal visit by me I want the truth now..
CSO_Singh says:
::Frowns...  why could she do things when she didn't want it to happen and not when she did...  Imagines the book in her hand.::

ACTION:  The creature all of a sudden lunges towards the Capt.

CTO_Jarot says:
::glances at the CO::  CO: Captain, the only solution I see is to sedate it... but the security would be very big and I would recommend against such a course of action...
SO_Silver says:
@Toni:  You don't look so good... here, have a seat... we will get things worked out soon enough.
OPS_Owens says:
@COM: Adm: Well as strangely absurd as it may seem ma'am, that is the absolute truth as I have been made aware.
CEO_O`Guinn says:
::brings phaser up aims and fires::
Host XO_Savar says:
::Sees the creature move and jumps between it and the Captain::

SO_Silver says:
@::Points to the chair at science 2::
Host Adm_Xavier says:
@COM: OPS:  Uh huh Handsome, and I've got a bridge in Brooklyn for a sale.  Would you by chance be interested.  ::Clearly the Adm doesn't believe him.::
Host XO_Savar says:
::As he jumps he puts his hands up towards it...::
TO_Rowe says:
::can't believe what just happened and he shoves the XO out of the way and fires at close range toward the creature::
CSO_Singh says:
::Blinks as the creature starts to fly instead::  Dang....
Host CO_Harm says:
::Steps backwards and to the side::
FCO_Hanover says:
::spotting the creature move levels her rifle but doesn't dare shoot since the XO is in the way::
Toni_Kristy says:
@::Drags herself to the science two chair:: SO: thanks...::sighs::

ACTION:  The creature rears up and Savar makes contact... horrid images of the creature killing enter his brain.

SO_Silver says:
@::Grins at the admiral::
OPS_Owens says:
@COM: Adm: Perhaps if it was the London bridge but you'll just have to await the reports from the crew if you question my honor.  ::pauses:: Ma'am
Host XO_Savar says:
::Fights the images and attempt to project calming images of peace::
CEO_O`Guinn says:

OPS_Owens says:
@COM: ADM: You'll have to excuse me a minute ma'am.  Minor emergency.  ::sits back at his console and beams up the CO and XO::
CTO_Jarot says:
All: Move back all of you...NOW... ::moves back, aiming his phaser rifle at the creature::

ACTION:  One of the arms of the creature blows off as Thati fires, hitting a wall then the Capt.

Host Adm_Xavier says:
@COM: OPS:  Lt, I know a push off when I see one!!  I used them for years...  Just be straight with me...  ::Sees Toni on the bridge.::
CEO_O`Guinn says:
::moves into door way using the frame as a bench takes careful aim at the creature:: CTO: If it so much as moves a centimeter fire.
SO_Silver says:
@Admiral:  I communique was sent.
Toni_Kristy says:
@::Noticed that she has bled on the console and wipes it up::
Host CO_Harm says:
ALL: Hold you fire.  TO: Attempt to assist the XO mentally now!
OPS_Owens says:
@::places the Adm on standby placing a tracing note from the ship's logs to prove his reasoning for placing an ADMIRAL of all things, on hold::

ACTION:  The creature all of a sudden lifts off the ground.  Clearly its shocked.

ACTION:  The XO breaks contact with the creature.

CSO_Singh says:
::Her eyes don't leave contact with the creature.  Not what she wanted, but better then nothing... she hoped::
CEO_O`Guinn says:
::follows the creature with rifle:: CO: Sir?
Host XO_Savar says:

Host CO_Harm says:
::Moves to his XO, and pulls him away:: XO: You ok Savar?

CTO_Jarot says:
::nods::  CEO: Aye...
Host Adm_Xavier says:
@Toni:  Its been a long time Toni, Do I have you to thank for putting my crew in danger?
Host XO_Savar says:
::Still slightly disoriented:: CO: I am... unsure.
OPS_Owens says:
@::seeing things have calmed, once again opens the com with the Admiral::  COM: ADM: My apologies ma'am.  You were saying.
TO_Rowe says:
::he falls into a trance hitting the floor, but he still has a connection with the creature::
Host Adm_Xavier says:
@COM: OPS:  The truth Owens, I just want to truth... once we get to know each other you will never go wrong with the truth with me..
CEO_O`Guinn says:
CO: Sir do we have a green light or not?
Toni_Kristy says:
@:Rachel: no...well maybe partial.
Host Adm_Xavier says:
@::Raises an eyebrow:: COM: Toni:  Partially?
Host CO_Harm says:
XO: I cannot take a chance, can we bring this thing in peacefully or do I give the order?
CEO_O`Guinn says:
TO: Get the captain and XO out of here now!!!!!
OPS_Owens says:
@COM: Adm: Ma'am.  I have served the Federation for well over 20 years.  I have fought the Cardassian Union in two separate wars and was serving on the Paula Greene when she was assimilated.  The last thing I could do right now is lie to you.
Toni_Kristy says:
@::Stands up:: Rachel: I'm not sure what is happening...something with one of my artifacts, your crew came and helped me out..
CSO_Singh says:
::Quietly::  FCO:  Now what do I do?
FCO_Hanover says:
::grabs the pack with the slime away in it and starts spraying it on the CO and XO::
TO_Rowe says:
::hears the CEO and is forced to pull away from the creatures mind::
FCO_Hanover says:
CSO: Just keep it hanging there for the moment.
Host Adm_Xavier says:
@COM: Toni:  By shooting up the Museum... The President is holding a party in less then an hour.
Host XO_Savar says:
CO: It has only a basic rudimentary intelligence.. it knows fear, but not compassion... it cannot be reasoned with.
Host CO_Harm says:
ALL: As long as its contained by whatever the CSO is doing no one fires

ACTION:  The CSO collapses.

TO_Rowe says:
::looks around confused for a moment and sees the FCO:: Self: Shouldn't they be gone by now?

::he fires once and looks at the CO and XO:: *OPS* Please get the XO and CO out of here!!!

ACTION:  Under constant fire, the creature collapses and falls to its knees, its head explodes and slime and brains is sprayed all over the AT....

CEO_O`Guinn says:
ALL: Cease fire.
OPS_Owens says:
@::hearing the Curator's final comment::  COM: Adm: Far be it for me to remind an Admiral ma'am, but this is a living creature that certainly has rights.  We cannot kill it for simply doing what comes by nature to it.
FCO_Hanover says:
::stops firing but stays close to Harmony...leans down as slime goes everywhere and tries to wake her::
Host Adm_Xavier says:
@COM: Toni:  They weren't working fast enough for you TONI!  MY CREW DID NOT WORK ON YOUR SCHEDULE!!!!

TO_Rowe says:
@::looks around and heads to the bridge::
Host Adm_Xavier says:
@COM: CO:  Actually Harm quite the opposite...  the prissy toad thinks you were negligent in your duties.

@::makes sure Security takes her off the bridge this time::
Host CO_Harm says:
@OPS: I think a second creature was emerging as we were beamed up, please send Miss Kristy to that location, if she desires.
SO_Silver says:
@::Watching in fascination the show, wondering if she could get some popcorn::
Host Adm_Xavier says:
@::Focuses on Toni:: COM: OPS:  Mr. Owen Handsome, please escort Prissy Toad here to the brig.

CEO_O`Guinn says:
CTO: Get those people out of here now!

CTO: If this place isn't clear in two minutes.
OPS_Owens says:
@::presses his lips together tightly to conceal the pain of the foot stomping::  Toni: Everyone knows when to draw the line when dealing with the law so to speak.
Host CO_Harm says:
@*ALL* Report back to the Luna, the museum crew that was so helpful with capturing the creature can handle cleanup.
FCO_Hanover says:
Self: Helpful? More like a menace if you ask me.
OPS_Owens says:
@::watches the TL doors open to the brig and waits for the TO to escort her out first while he follows::

ACTION:  Toni, Owen and Thati arrive at the brig.

CSO_Singh says:

Host CO_Harm says:
@*OPS* Would I do that?
OPS_Owens says:
@::watches as his people transport the Curator away to the surface::
TO_Rowe says:
@::looks at the OPS, and tries to hold back his anger as Toni hits him::
