@:: Walks along with PADD in hand and a carrier.  Hears a little whine ::
Host Gopher says:
@<Ironsword Ops> COM: Luna: This is the Ironsword we have a Lt Qui for transport... If I can find her again.. ::Mutters::
CSec_Lt_Powers says:
#COM: CO: Captain?  Is there a problem?
CMO_Lynch says:
::transfers the information from that PADD to his console::
Yokati`Clon says:
#::Stands patiently beside Lt. Powers.::
Host Gopher says:
COM: Ironsword: Heya Bud well give me her last location I can find her...
CNS_Anuviel says:
::gets out of the lift, starts walking down the hall, reaches out to make sure Lynch is in sickbay::
CMO_Lynch says:
::cuts and pastes information together to finalize the report to the Acting XO::
Host CO_Savar says:
COM: CSec: We appear to be unable to make a connection with the Founder.  Can you suggest a course of action that would resolve this peacefully?
CNS_Anuviel says:
::senses he is, walks into sickbay and goes over to his office, although the door is open, taps softly on the wall to get his attention::
CSec_Lt_Powers says:
#::Looks at the Jem'Hadar::  Yokati: These are your gods, what will they believe?
OPS-Qui says:
@:: Stands in the transporter room, PADD in hand, a carrier in the other.  She hears a small whimper come from it ::
CTO_Jarot says:
::on the bridge of the Luna, sitting in the center chair, reviewing his recent reports::
CMO_Lynch says:
::looks up and spots the CNS::  CNS: Counselor?  Is there something I can do for you?  ::stands::
Host Gopher says:
@<Ironsword Chief> OPS: We are ready when you are.. I have the coordinates Ma'am.
CEO_Lingn says:
::moves next to the CTO::
Yokati`Clon says:
#Lt. Powers: Every individual is different.  I can only relay the truth of the matter to them of what has occurred.
CNS_Anuviel says:
CMO: Yes, I wanted to apologize for my behavior earlier. ::smiles:: I do think you are right, my estrogen levels might well be having an adverse effect on me.
OPS-Qui says:
@:: Steps up to the transporter pad, carrier and PADD in hand awaiting to be beamed over ::
CEO_Lingn says:
CTO: How are you doing?
Host Gopher says:
@<Ironsword Transporter Chief> OPS: Energizing... ::Hand slides up the console and Qui disappears::
Host CO_Savar says:
::Looks between the CSO and the screen::  CSO/COM: Abertura: What about a wide spread transmission?  It might be the best we can do at this time.
Host Gopher says:
*CSO*: Ma'am... We have a Lt Qui transporter over...  Oh man!  I got a new boss...this sucks.
CSO_Singh says:
CO:  I should be able to set that up with OPS.
CMO_Lynch says:
::quirks a lip in thought trying to decide how to proceed then walks around the side of his desk toward the CNS:: CNS: It is all right Lieutenant.  As a Doctor I am very familiar with the varying changes in both physiology and emotional states.  I can sympathize with you and perhaps subscribe something to help keep it under control if you like?
CTO_Jarot says:
::glances as he sees the CEO appear along his side and nods::  CEO: Chief..   ::glances at the viewscreen::  doing pretty good here.... you ?
CSO_Singh says:
*Gopher*:  Understood.  Please have her report to the bridge.

ACTION:  Lt Qui materializes on the Luna.

OPS-Qui says:
:: Sees herself materialize on the Luna.  Looks around before stepping off the PADD.  Hears the whimper from her carrier again::
CEO_Lingn says:
CTO: Making it.
OPS-Qui says:
:: Smiles at Gopher ::   Gopher: I'm Ltjg Kehari Qui...your new boss.
Host CO_Savar says:
CSO: Do so, please.  COM: Abertura: Stand by, we are going to open a wide-open channel, hopefully someone will be listening in.
CSO_Singh says:
::Quietly::  CO:  I for one am quite glad we have a new OPS.  ::Louder::  I will set it up now.
CEO_Lingn says:
CTO: I can feel it in my bones we may be in battle.
Host Gopher says:
<Mason> OPS: Actually I'm mason Ma'am... glad to have you aboard... Gopher is on the bridge... ::Whispers::  I'd watch out for him, he turned the last bosses hair grey and you have such pretty hair I'd hate to see that happen.
Yokati`Clon says:
#Lt. Powers:  Is there any specific way you wish me to proceed with this?
CNS_Anuviel says:
CMO: I suppose that's best... I mean... it was wrong for me even by Betazoid standards... I mean... ::laughs a little:; its not about the sex... and, well I don't know you well enough to love you. ::smiles:; Hope you don't mind my saying so... not that you probably aren't loveable in your own right... I mean... um... well you know what I mean?
OPS-Qui says:
:: Giggles ::  Mason: Nice to meet you...and thanks for the tip.  I guess I'd better report in, huh?
CSO_Singh says:
::With a nod toward the screen and her captain, she turns to leave the RR.::
CTO_Jarot says:
::nods::  CEO: May be soon.... although we should keep diplomatic options at this moment in time...  especially with the number of ships in the taskforce...
Host Gopher says:
<Mason> ::Big grin on his face:: OPS:  Yep you better, lots happening.. apparently some Dominion guys don't think the war is over and we are heading for battle...
CMO_Lynch says:
::raises an eyebrow at the CNS quirkiness and holds up a hand::  CNS: Let's move out into the outer sickbay and get you up on a biobed.  ::stops before a bed and pats it::  Now sit here please.
CSec_Lt_Powers says:
#::Grimaces::  Yokati: Speak the truth, and tell the others that the war is over.
OPS-Qui says:
:: Nods ::   Mason: I'll catch you later!   :: Walks out into the corridor ::
Host Gopher says:
<Mason> ::Waves at the new boss.::
CEO_Lingn says:
CTO: Well my department is ready.
OPS-Qui says:
Self: Now...where is the bridge on this ship???   :: Touches a panel ::   Computer: Show me the way to the nearest turbolift so I may go to the bridge ::
CSO_Singh says:
::Exits the ready room, eyeing Gopher.::  *OPS*: Your assistance now would be valuable.  Please report to the bridge.  Lt. Mason can take care of your gear.
CNS_Anuviel says:
::gets on to the biobed he suggests:: CMO: Well, I just want to make things straight between us. ::smiles::
Yokati`Clon says:
#Lt. Powers: That is simpler then it may seem.
Host Gopher says:
::Has the look of what has he done now on his face... stares at Singh.::
OPS-Qui says:
*CSO*: I'm on my way.    :: Not sure if she should say sir, or ma'am or what...yet ::
CNS_Anuviel says:
CMO: Also it is a perfectly normal, instinctual response...
CTO_Jarot says:
::nods::  CEO: Good to hear it...  ::sees the CSO exit the ready room and stands from the center chair as he nods at the CSO::  CSO: Commander....  everything is order, Luna is still at alert status as requested...

ACTION:  The panel lights up with the appropriate arrows pointing the way for Qui.

CNS_Anuviel says:
CMO: From a psychological standpoint... ::smiles but feels like she's digging a deeper hole::
OPS-Qui says:
:: Follows the light up panels to the turbolift ::
CEO_Lingn says:
CSO: I got the status report for engineering. ::hands her a PADD::
CMO_Lynch says:
::nods lightly as he pulls out a Tricorder and sets it barely showing emotion in front of the patient::  CNS: Don't give it another thought.  ::begins scanning the CNS::  How long have you had this dark patch on the back of your neck?  ::noticing the area as he scans::
CNS_Anuviel says:
CMO: Dark patch?
OPS-Qui says:
:: Enters the turbolift ::   Turbolift: Bridge.   :: Hears the whimper again from her carrier. ::
CSO_Singh says:
::nods to Gopher and turns to Alex and walks over to him.  Quietly::  CTO:  I should be in such order.
OPS-Qui says:
Self: I know, I know, sweetie.  You just keep quiet a bit longer.
OPS-Qui says:
:: Feels the lift slow.  As the doors open, steps onto the bridge and looks around ::
CMO_Lynch says:
::hopes he can sidetrack her thoughts to at least temporarily quill her nerves::  CNS: Yes.  Right here.  ::touches a spot just under her hair line on the back of her neck::
CNS_Anuviel says:
::warms at his touch:: CMO: Mmm.... :: pauses, startles herself out of it:: Oh! Um... I had no idea I had anything back there... there was that chip thing... but I thought that was up here... ::points near the top of her skull::

Action:  The cute little puppy is scarred... sees the CTO and begins barking.

CSO_Singh says:
::Turns at the sound of the doors opening.::  OPS:  Your timing is good.
CTO_Jarot says:
::nods at the CSO::  CSO: Good... ::smiles as he gestures at the chair::  you have the bridge, Ma'am...
CMO_Lynch says:
::runs fingers along the top of her skull where she pointed::  Self: Hmmm.....  ::stops and thinks for a moment::
CEO_Lingn says:
::looks at the puppy with his eyes and antennas::
CSO_Singh says:
::Looks down at the dog::  Gopher:  Please take Lt. Qui's friend to her quarters.
OPS-Qui says:
:: Move toward the CSO, places the PADD under her arm holding the carrier and extends her hand ::   CSO: Ltjg Kehari Qui...    :: Looks at her carrier ::   Quag: Shh, Quag!
Host Gopher says:
::Locks onto the dog and transports him to sickbay. Rubs his hands.:: CSO:  All done Ma'am...
CMO_Lynch says:
::resting both hands on the side of the bed:: CNS: Well...  I'm going to take a small cellular sample of the area.  Its probably nothing Counselor but we can never be too careful.  Please wait here a moment.  ::goes to get some equipment::
OPS-Qui says:
:: Feels her carrier disappear and looks around ::   All: Where'd my dog go?!?
CSO_Singh says:
::Take the hand.::  OPS:  We need to send out a wide beam communication connecting the distant Abertura station with a group of Jem'Hadar in the system we are now approaching as a meeting of information.
Host Gopher says:
OPS:  Sickbay Ma'am... needs its shots you know.  ::Mumbles and gets up from his station.::
CSO_Singh says:
::Looks over at Gopher::  Gopher:  I meant by hand.
CNS_Anuviel says:
::nods, now more worried about this new development::
CEO_Lingn says:
::opens up the tactical station::

ACTION:  Barking can be heard in sickbay.

CMO_Lynch says:
::notices a dog materialize in sickbay::  *Bridge* Bridge?  What is this... thing doing in my sterilized Sickbay?
OPS-Qui says:
:: Raises an eyebrow... ::   Gopher: You must be Gopher...   :: Voice is a bit icy ::
CEO_Lingn says:
::takes out a tricorder and probes for faulty circuits::
CSO_Singh says:
*CMO*:  Your current patient.  Please check him out.  Gopher will be picking him up soon.
CNS_Anuviel says:
::looks at the dog:: Out loud: Oh! Animal!
Host Gopher says:
::looks at Qui::  OPS:  You must be the new Nigel... at least he was cuter.. ::Storms off the bridge.::
OPS-Qui says:
:: Nods at the CSO ::  CSO: I'll get on that right away.
CSO_Singh says:
::Looks at Alec, holding back a sigh.::
OPS-Qui says:
:: Raises an eyebrow at Gopher and makes a mental note... ::
CMO_Lynch says:
*CSO* Not in my Sickbay I won't.  Now get this animal out of here.  I can not protect my patient’s health if there is an animal here.
CTO_Jarot says:
::grins slightly and heads over to his tactical console::
CEO_Lingn says:
::closes the tactical console satisfied::
OPS-Qui says:
CSO: Oh...and should I report in to you?    :: Looks around the bridge ::
CSO_Singh says:
OPS:  If you wish, I can deal with Gopher later, however, as he is now your officer, you may prefer to do it yourself.
CNS_Anuviel says:
::reflexively brings her legs up onto the biobed, as if she's afraid of it ::
OPS-Qui says:
CSO: No, I'll handle THAT one myself...but thanks for the offer.
Host Gopher says:
::Heads off to the lounge.::
CMO_Lynch says:
::sees the dog near the CNS and her uncomfortability::  *CSO* The dog is bothering my patients Commander...
CSO_Singh says:
*CMO*:  Your whole ship is filled with animals of one species or another.  Deal with it.  You are the CMO aboard ship.
OPS-Qui says:
CSO: I take it that's where Quag was transported to...
CMO_Lynch says:
*CSO*: But they are not in a health dependant area like Sickbay is.
CNS_Anuviel says:
CMO: No, no... it’s ok... I got used to the horses... and they were all giving birth... what can one dog do? ::forces herself to relax::
CSO_Singh says:
*CMO*:  I will remember not to go to sickbay when I am sick.  Singh out.
CTO_Jarot says:
::glances at the CEO as he sees him working on the tactical console's on the bridge::  CEO: Chief... this is not a particular good to be working on tactical consoles on the bridge....::
CSO_Singh says:
OPS:  Please... I need you to get the set up done yesterday.  Your friend will be well taken care of.
OPS-Qui says:
:: Whispers ::  CSO: Where's the CO?
CSO_Singh says:
::Feeling her temper growing shorter.::
Host CO_Savar says:
::Rubs his brow and wonders what is taking so long::
CSO_Singh says:
OPS:  He is in his ready room.
CEO_Lingn says:
::extends a hand to OPS:: OPS: I am Ensign Lingn, your CEO, but you can call me Chief.
CMO_Lynch says:
::grumbles about the CSO under his breath::  CNS: Doesn't she realize that this is Sickbay?  An animal carries too many microbes that can infect a patients weakened immune system.  ::approaches the CNS with his equipment::
OPS-Qui says:
:: Nods ::   CSO: So...should I report in to you?   :: Removes the PADD from her arm and extends it to the CSO ::
CEO_Lingn says:
CTO: I did a check, I didn't perform any work.
CNS_Anuviel says:
CMO: Well maybe she did not know why the dog was transported here. ::keeps her eye on the dog:: Besides.... aren't you supposed to check on the crew's animals?
CTO_Jarot says:
::nods::  CEO: Very well...  I hope the check up was a positive one?
CSO_Singh says:
OPS:  Yes... as odd as it may seem.  We are a bit... short of staff at the moment.  ::Takes the padd.::
Host CO_Savar says:
*CSO*: Lieutenant Commander, is everything in working order out there?
CEO_Lingn says:
CTO: Yes Jarot it was, You and I still need to get that drink.
OPS-Qui says:
:: Nods ::   CSO:  Here are my orders.  You'll find everything is good...and I'll just take over OPS...  :: Nods at a console ::   ...over there?
CMO_Lynch says:
CNS: Yes.  But I will not have them here.  In their quarters when my duties allow me, but not Sickbay.  ::calls for the Nurse to take the dog back to OPS' Quarters and do a check-up on it there::: CNS: Now where were we?
CSO_Singh says:
::Takes a deep breath::  *CO*:  Yes sir.  Our new operations officer has arrived and she is getting settled in as... fast as she can.
CNS_Anuviel says:
::looks at his equipment:; CMO: My tissue sample... ?
Yokati`Clon says:
#Lt. Powers: Inefficient?
CTO_Jarot says:
CEO: Afterwards, Chief... afterwards...  ::grins::  we've got our hands full now here...  ::taps his console and checks the weapons inventory for status reports::
CSO_Singh says:
OPS:  Yes... I will correlate with you from science as soon as you are logged in.
CMO_Lynch says:
CNS: Oh yes...right.  ::places a hand on the back of her skull::  CNS: Now if you'll tilt your head forward please?
OPS-Qui says:
:: Moves to the open console in hopes that is the right one and sits down.  Logs in and sighs happily::
CSec_Lt_Powers says:
#::Doesn't really want to say anything in front of someone of higher rank::
CNS_Anuviel says:
::does as the CMO says, with a bit of a frown now worried about what's on the back of her neck::
CSO_Singh says:
::Goes to her station.::   ~~~~CTO:  I am in the CMO's doghouse, aren't I.~~~~
OPS-Qui says:
:: Fingers move over her console as she set up a wide beam communication signal connecting Abertura Station with a group of Jem'Hadar in the approaching system as requested ::
CMO_Lynch says:
::withdraws a sample on the cellular level and releases his hand from her head::  CNS: There you are.  ::places sample in a sterilized container::

ACTION:  Lt Qui successfully makes the connection.

OPS-Qui says:
CSO: The communications signal is set up.
CSO_Singh says:
::Connects it through the array.::  OPS:  Thank you.
Host CO_Savar says:
Com: Abertura: When you are ready...
CEO_Lingn says:
::takes a seat at the helm and opens it up::
CNS_Anuviel says:
CMO: What do you think it might be? When will you get results?
OPS-Qui says:
:: Monitors the power of the communications signal as well as all ship's systems ::
CEO_Lingn says:
::checks the circuits with the tricorder::
OPS-Qui says:
:: Sees all systems at green and calls up the OPS roster ::

ACTION:  Kornak, the First of the striker division appears on screen.  The picture is hazy as if it's being slightly jammed.

CTO_Jarot says:
~~~~CSO: It would appear so.... I can imagine you'd like to shout at him.... ::grins::  ~~~~   ::continues reading through the reports::
CSO_Singh says:
OPS:  Put it up on screen, one way only.
CMO_Lynch says:
::carrying the sample over to place in a sample bag::  CNS: I'll send this to the lab and we should have results for you by tomorrow.  Now how about the injection for your estrogen levels?
OPS-Qui says:
:: Sees the visual on screen and makes the necessary corrections to clear it up ::
OPS-Qui says:
CSO: Aye...trying to clear it up now
Host CO_Savar says:
::Narrowss the communications channel on their end so that the ships out there only see Yokati::
Yokati`Clon says:
#::Leans down to try and clear up the picture from her end.::
OPS-Qui says:
:: Unable to clear the signal, but keeps trying ::   CSO: I'm not able to clear the signal.  I'll keep trying
CNS_Anuviel says:
CMO: Did you check that the estrogen is the problem? Because there well could be a psychological cause as well...
Yokati`Clon says:
#Lt. Powers: It will not clear up any further.
CEO_Lingn says:
::closes the console::
CSO_Singh says:
OPS:  Understood.
CSec_Lt_Powers says:
#::Nods::  Yokati: Very well.  ::Motions towards the screen::  Your audience awaits
CEO_Lingn says:
::does a quick sweep with the navigational sensors::
OPS-Qui says:
:: Checks to see if Gopher assigned her quarters...and sees he didn't ::
CMO_Lynch says:
CNS: There could be Lieutenant.  However, from my scans ::holding up the Tricorder::  I made earlier.  The problem could only be from levels that are too high.  I suggest you have this injection.  ::holding up a hypospray in his other hand::
Yokati`Clon says:
#::Straightens to look at what she can see::    Kornak:  I am First Yokati'Clon of the Abertura Station in the alpha sector.  I believe there is a misunderstanding that needs to be cleared up.
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
::Ewan is in his quarters preparing for his black-ops mission down on the surface::
OPS-Qui says:
:: Calls up all available quarters and assigns one to herself.  Sends the information to Mason requesting her belongings be placed there::
CSO_Singh says:
::Reaches a hand up to her tempos, feeling a headache slowly coming on.::
Host Kornak says:
$COM: Yokati: I am the First of the 2nd Striker force on Youato 4.  The misunderstanding here is that the Federation seems to think that they can just attack us.  We are at war Yokati...
CNS_Anuviel says:
CMO: Oh certainly... I did not remember you saying that my estrogen was indeed the problem... and here I was thinking I was suffering from the whole mateless pregnant woman... thing... I mean that kind of explains.... well... earlier you know...
CEO_Lingn says:
::leaves the bridge heading for the CIV's quarters::
CEO_Lingn says:
::enters the turbolift::
CMO_Lynch says:
::shakes his head::  CNS: I didn't say it WAS the problem.  I'm just saying that until the results come back... it IS a possibility.  ::injects the CNS with the hypospray::
Yokati`Clon says:
#Kornak:  The Federation and the Jem'Hadar have a peace treaty between them.  They should not be attacking you, unless it was provoked.
OPS-Qui says:
*Mason*: Qui to Mason...    :: Keeps a close eye on her console ::
CTO_Jarot says:
::watches the viewscreen with interest::
OPS-Qui says:
<Mason> *OPS*: Yes ma'am!
CEO_Lingn says:
::arrives at the CIV's quarters and rings the doorbell::
Host Kornak says:
$COM: Yokati: What is this treachery.. there is no peace treaty.. Norna has not informed us of this and as you know GODS DO NOT LIE.
CNS_Anuviel says:
CMO: Oh I misunderstood... ::begins wondering about her psylosiline levels as she did not read him correctly::
CSO_Singh says:
::Quietly moves over to Alec::  CTO:  Do you think this will work?
OPS-Qui says:
*Mason*: I have sent my quarters information to you.  Please retrieve my dog from sickbay and ensure she and my belongings are sent to my quarters
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
::Ewan gets together various SFI gadgets and quickly puts them away upon hearing the chime to his door:: CEO: Enter!
OPS-Qui says:
<Mason>*OPS*: Yes, sir!  I'll see to that personally!
OPS-Qui says:
*Mason*: Thank you.  Qui out.
CTO_Jarot says:
::sighs as he shakes his head::  CSO: Probably not... not if we don't have a founder to show for...
Yokati`Clon says:
#Kornak:  I would not lie to my gods.  The peace treaty was enacted shortly after the wormhole closed, exiling us to the Alpha Quadrant.
CEO_Lingn says:
::enters the Quarters::
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
::pushes some things back under a couch quickly::
CMO_Lynch says:
::places a gentle hand on her back and places the other under her forearm helping her off the bed::  CNS: There.  That ought to do it Lieutenant.  Now, I don't want you to worry about the area on your neck.  It could very well be nothing more than a discoloration of the skin.
CEO_Lingn says:
CIV: I would like to ask you something.
OPS-Qui says:
:: Looks over her console ensure power remains constant ::
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
::quickly looks up:: CEO:: Sure, what's on your mind Chief?
Host Kornak says:
$::Is quiet for a moment.:: COM: Yokati: I do not believe you. We are bred as fighters.  We live so we can serve the founders.  Norna would not lie to us it is impossible.
CNS_Anuviel says:
::nods:: CMO: Alright... ::bites her lip::
CEO_Lingn says:
CIV: I know you are in SFI and I would to know if you have any spots available in your organization.
OPS-Qui says:
:: Sees a power loss in the communications signal... ::   CSO: I just lost communications!   :: Fingers fly over her console trying to re-establish the link ::
Yokati`Clon says:
#Kornak: Has Norna heard anything new from home?
CMO_Lynch says:
CNS: Now I want you to make sure you get plenty of rest and come and see me tomorrow morning around 1000 hours.  I should have your results by then.  OK?  ::walking her toward the door::
OPS-Qui says:
CSO: Trying to re-establish the link

ACTION:  The view screen goes blank and Kornak is lost.

CSO_Singh says:
OPS:  What happened?
Yokati`Clon says:
#::Looks at Lt. Powers::
CTO_Jarot says:
::blinks::  CSO: Good question... atmospheric disturbances ?
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
CEO: Well Chief that is kind of obvious since I am wearing the regulation SFI uniform, but why do you want to be in SFI?
OPS-Qui says:
:: Tries several different avenues in order to re-establish the link...sees... ::    CSO: The link is being jammed
CSec_Lt_Powers says:
#::Shrugs::  COM: Luna: Captain, is everything alright?
CSO_Singh says:
~~~~CTO:  I have a headache coming on.~~~~
OPS-Qui says:
:: Tries to find out where the jam is coming from ::
CSO_Singh says:
OPS:  From where?
OPS-Qui says:
CSO: Attempting to locate the source of the jam now
CNS_Anuviel says:
::walks out with him kind of stunned:: CMO: Alright... rest huh? My quarters?
CEO_Lingn says:
CIV: Because I want to serve and I am more accustom to the more dangerous assignments.
CSO_Singh says:
*CO*:  The communication is being jammed, OPS is working on trying to find out from where.
Host CO_Savar says:
COM: Abertura: I do not believe so... the signal is being jammed locally.  I appreciate your assistance.
CMO_Lynch says:
::stopping at the door::  CNS: Well, I didn't mean just this moment...  Any other questions Counselor?
OPS-Qui says:
:: Follows the trail... ::   CSO: The jam is at the source...a place called Youato 4
CSec_Lt_Powers says:
#::Nods::  COM: Luna: Our pleasure.  Good luck.
CTO_Jarot says:
~~~~CSO: Headache?  any idea how that happened... stress?~~~~
CSO_Singh says:
*CO*:  Source is Youato 4.
CNS_Anuviel says:
CMO: No. No... ::shakes her head:; I guess I'll go...
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
::thinks to himself for a moment before answering::
CSO_Singh says:
~~~~CTO:  Maybe that is it.  Being a simple science officer is much easier. ~~~~
Host CO_Savar says:
::Closes the communications channel from his end, and walks out onto the Bridge::  All: Apparently there is no peaceful resolution for this situation.  OPS: Operations, open a communications channel to the fleet, highest security and scrambling.  CTO: Ship's status?
CMO_Lynch says:
::places a gentle hand on her shoulder::  CNS: Are you sure you are all right?
CMO_Lynch says:
CNS: Anything you want to discuss?
CTO_Jarot says:
~~~~CSO: Yeah.... I can imagine... but hey, it's a great opportunity for you...~~~~
Yokati`Clon says:
#Lt. Powers: I am curious.  I hope they let us know later what has occurred.  I will return to my duties now.
OPS-Qui says:
:: Nods at the man who she assumes must be the CO and opens a channel, priority one, scrambled ::   CO: Channel is opened, sir
CNS_Anuviel says:
CMO: I suppose I'm alright... ::hears his second question, grabs him in a tight hug, starts crying:: I miss him!
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
CEO: As you can see my mission here is not one of a dangerous nature
CSO_Singh says:
~~~~CTO:  Pray tell how?  Remind me to tell the XO how much I appreciate him when he gets back.~~~~ ::Smiles and turns to her station.
CTO_Jarot says:
::nods at the CO::  CO: The Luna is at the highest alert readiness... all decks have reported combat readiness...  all tactical systems are in green and operational...
CMO_Lynch says:
::lets out a gentle sigh and directs her back into sickbay and into his office while holding her::
CEO_Lingn says:
CIV: I know there are some elements to not being dangerous but you can't lie to me and tell me it isn't all not dangerous.
CNS_Anuviel says:
::calms herself down to a sniffle or two, lets him take her into his office::
Host CO_Savar says:
COM: SF/KDF: All vessels, this is Captain Savar of the Luna.  Peaceful resolution with the Dominion forces on the planet have failed.  Two of our officers, including my Exec, are missing and assumed captured or killed.
CMO_Lynch says:
::directs her to one of two chairs in front of his desk and then takes the other himself::
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
CEO: One just doesn't "join" SFI, they're are kind of ....tapped so to speak

ACTION:  All ships watch Captain Savar intently on their viewscreens.

Host CO_Savar says:
COM: SF/KDF: I wish it did not have to come to this, but I believe an assault is the only possible course of action, unless any of you can suggest anything?
CEO_Lingn says:
CIV: I know but it is as the Vulcans say "The logical thing to do" and I want to devote myself to SFI and Starfleet.
CNS_Anuviel says:
::sniffles:: CMO: You..... I... I mean... ::wipes her tears:; I suppose you miss Nigel too... but probably not like I do...
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
CEO: There are other ways to devote yourself to Starfleet
CEO_Lingn says:
CIV: This is the only way I see.
CMO_Lynch says:
::slumps his shoulders forward slightly::  CNS: Well, I have not seen or heard from Nigel in over a year.  My grieving process started back then.  You on the other hand, have only been without him for about two months.  I can understand how you might feel.
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
CEO: It's not for me to decide who is picked and who isn't. My role in SFI is to rate command staffs for bigger and better things
CNS_Anuviel says:
::sniffles, calming:: CMO: Yeah... but he's probably dead, you know that, right? Klingons don't take prisoners!
CNS_Anuviel says:
CMO: Its not the same as just parting company
CEO_Lingn says:
CIV: I understand completely.
CMO_Lynch says:
::sighs not wanting to have heard that::  CNS: I suppose that is correct Counselor... No matter how much I'd like to think otherwise.
CEO_Lingn says:
::looks at him knowing the lie::
Host CO_Savar says:
::Hearing nothing, he continues::  COM: SF/KDF: Most of the Klingon vessels have the ability to enter the atmosphere... if they can, they will be able to draw out the bulk of the Dominion forces to space, where we can fight them with our superior numbers.  Once those vessels are dealt with, an assault of the base can begin - either from orbit, or through use of the Kaneda class fighters.
CMO_Lynch says:
CNS: We must always hold out hope.  Remember, every passing moment is another chance to turn it all around.  If anyone can do it, it is Nigel Owens.  ::placing a hand on her left arm::
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
CEO: I'm new to this role myself and it is hard to get adjusted to.
OPS-Qui says:
:: Checks her console to ensure the channel is open and all ships are receiving ::
CEO_Lingn says:
CIV: Good luck to your mission. Thank you for your time.
CNS_Anuviel says:
::almost pleads with her eyes:: CMO: I want to believe otherwise too.... in my heart I do... I want to believe... but my mind... ::feels his arm on her:: You're right... ::looks at him with a sad sort of smile::
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
CEO: Chief, but one day...don't count anything out. SFI is a funny thing
CSO_Singh says:
~~~~CTO:  Is it just me, but somehow, this just doesn't seem right.  We are in essence condemning them all.~~~~
CMO_Lynch says:
::grips the arm slightly at her smile giving it a little shake::  CNS: A wise man told me that once.  ::smiles remembering Nigel::
CTO_Jarot says:
~~~~CSO: Condemning who? ~~~~
CNS_Anuviel says:
::smiles a small smile at him, remembering Nigel also::
CSO_Singh says:
~~~~CTO:  Condemning all those on the planet.  It isn't their fault that they don't know what is going on.  And obviously, someone is keeping that information from them.  Or are you going to tell me this is all a part of war, even though we are no longer at war.~~~~
OPS-Qui says:
:: Receives information from all ships ::   CO: Sir, all ships are reporting ready
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
CEO: I was once an Engineer myself, it's a good brotherhood too.. remember that!
CNS_Anuviel says:
CMO: All I have is my memories... I want more... of course I want more...
CMO_Lynch says:
CNS: Now this is no time to fret.  I am looking into the fate of Nigel and you can be rest assured, I will find out.  For now...  Go get some rest.  ::smiling and giving her arm another gentle shake::  OK?
CEO_Lingn says:
CIV: Yes it is.
Host CO_Savar says:
OPS: Very well.  Give me an open channel, as wide of a band as you can.
CEO_Lingn says:
CIV: Good luck.
CTO_Jarot says:
~~~~CSO: Hhhmmm, now if I think about it...  we could always try and convince the Jem'Hadar on the surface that we are founders and convince them the war is over ~~~~
OPS-Qui says:
:: Opens a channel, wide beam ::   CO: Channel open, sir
CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
CEO: Thank you.......*CO*: Captain, I'm ready to go to the surface
CEO_Lingn says:
::leaves for the bridge::
CSO_Singh says:
~~~~CTO:  Set up some sort of holoprogram?  But then what about the jamming?~~~~
Host CO_Savar says:
COM: All: Dominion forces, I ask once again that you stand down so that we can resolve this situation peacefully.  Your presence here is in violation of treaty stipulations, and an act of war; however I am willing to dismiss it if you leave peacefully and return my officers.
CTO_Jarot says:
~~~~CSO: That is a problem indeed... for which I don't have a solution right now... ~~~~
CEO_Lingn says:
::arrives on the bridge::
OPS-Qui says:
:: Checks her console to make sure they are receiving the message ::
CNS_Anuviel says:
::nods and sniffles again:: CMO: Alright... I'll go to my quarters... get some sleep... I'm emotionally spent... what with that little girl looking for her mommy... ::pauses:; Doctor.... can you tell me what gender my baby is?
CEO_Lingn says:
::takes the helm::
CSO_Singh says:
::Turns around to look at her captain.  ~~~~CTO:  Nor I think does our Captain.~~~~
CMO_Lynch says:
Self: Hmm....  ::steps around his desk and pulls up the CNS' record::

ACTION:  Silence greets the Captain's statement.

CIV_MacPherson-Quest says:
::exits his quarters and heads for the transporter room while waiting for the Captain to reply::
CMO_Lynch says:
CNS: Your baby will be a boy  ::looking up at her::
CNS_Anuviel says:
::smiles:: CMO: I wonder if he'll have Nigel's eyes... ::wanders out of sickbay::
Host CO_Savar says:
*CIV*: You might want to find somewhere to sit, it's going to get bumpy for a while.  *All*: All hands, battle stations.  COM: All: All vessels, move out.
