The USS Pharaoh is investigating the transporter accident involving Tehn-Karra the Tzenkethi Ambassador. All investigations by the crew have found nothing wrong with the Pharaoh's transporter system. The Tzenkethi's transporter system seems to be the cause.

There are not indications from the sensor logs that the Cardassian warship caused in any way interference to the transporter beam. Gul_Darhe`el remains confined to quarters.

The Commanding Officer of the Tzenkethi ship, Arat Kern, is demanding to inspect the Pharaoh's transporter systems and is growing impatient.

SO_Raja says:
::in transporter room collating the data collected on the transporter system::
CMO_Stidd says:
::On the bridge awaiting new orders::
CSO_McGrady says:
::at science, closely monitoring sensors for signs of Tztheneki or Cardassian armament::
XO_Chalen says:
::The XO sits in the command chair looking at the ever looming chronometer::
FCO_Khrex says:
ALL: ...and then the vicar says, "No, my child. I said border!". Hahaha... get it? Border?
OPS_Verdi says:
::in the transporter room::
CEO_Irvin says:
::enters the bridge with Captain Fletcher with a PADD in hand::
OPS_Verdi says:
SO:  I can't find anything.  How about you?
CEO_Irvin says:
XO: It wasn't us Chalen.....
Gul_Darheel says:
::is in his quarters sitting down looking at the security officer::
Capt_Fletcher says:
::stands with his grandson::
SO_Raja says:
OPS: Nothing her-r-re. Ever-r-rything checks out
FCO_Khrex says:
ALL: Hmm... tough crowd. ::turns his attention back to the helm::
XO_Chalen says:
CEO:  Tell me you've got proof.
CEO_Irvin says:
::hands the XO the PADD::
OPS_Verdi says:
::nods at the SO::
Capt_Fletcher says:
XO: I doubt that the Tzenkethi will admit to it though...
Capt_Fletcher says:
XO: But I've got to try to talk to them.
MO_Jorae says:
::Walks into Sickbay a little late....but better late than never.::
XO_Chalen says:
::takes the PADD::
SO_Raja says:
OPS: Better-r-r tell the XO that all is not r-r-right in Sweden, as the saying goes
OPS_Verdi says:
*XO*:  We can't find anything unusual in the transporter room.  We'll be returning to the bridge momentarily.
XO_Chalen says:
*OPS*:  Acknowledged.
CMO_Stidd says:
XO: There is still the possibility that this was no accident, sir.
OPS_Verdi says:
SO:  I can't think of anything else to check, can you?
XO_Chalen says:
CEO:  The Tzenkethi's transporter malfunctioned?   Any way we can verify this?
SO_Raja says:
OPS: No. We have gone over-r-r ever-r-rything
XO_Chalen says:
CMO:  Very possible, Doctor.
MO_Jorae says:
::Looks around for the CMO.....Not finding her, she heads for the bridge.....Perhaps she can torment the XO.::
CSO_McGrady says:
XO: We should not discount the possibility, however strange it would seem, that the Tztheneki may have caused the accident themselves.
CEO_Irvin says:
XO: Not from here....   Not unless our resourceful OPS officer can tap into their computer system....
OPS_Verdi says:
::nods::  SO:  Let's head back then.  ::leaves the transporter room::
SO_Raja says:
::Follows OPS::
Gul_Darheel says:
::sits on the bed staring at the door::

XO_Chalen says:
CEO:  She's on her way up.   Come up with a plan.   You've got fifteen minutes.   Shock me.
Capt_Fletcher says:
XO: Which reminds me...  *OPS*: Commander, have Gul Darhe'el escorted to the bridge please....
XO_Chalen says:
CSO:   The last thing I want right now is MORE suspects.  
SO_Raja says:
OPS: I am guessing that the "accident" was ther-r-re par-r-rt. But why?
MO_Jorae says:
::Heads to the TL:: TL: Bridge.
OPS_Verdi says:
*Fletcher*:  Understood.
OPS_Verdi says:
SO:  Perhaps it was simply an accident?  Let's pick up the Gul and take him to the bridge on our way.
CEO_Irvin says:
XO: Yes sir....   
CEO_Irvin says:
::walks out back towards Engineering::
FCO_Khrex says:
::monitors the helm::
Capt_Fletcher says:
::sighs::  XO: I think that we could try the diplomatic channels first Commander.
SO_Raja says:
OPS: Great. Never-r-r met a Cardassian befor-r-e
MO_Jorae says:
::Exits the TL onto the bridge.....and sees the CMO and the XO.::
XO_Chalen says:
Fletcher:   You know the Tzenkethi, how likely are they to accept that this could have been their fault?   Are they likely to blame us or the Cardassians?
OPS_Verdi says:
::walking down a corridor towards the Cardies quarters::
OPS_Verdi says:
SO:  They have an interesting sense of humour.  ::pauses and nods at the security team outside the Cardassian's quarters::
SO_Raja says:
::Keeps following OPS::
XO_Chalen says:
MO:  Julia.   Good to see you.  ::rubs temples::

OPS: Just happy to lear-r-rn new things. that is all
MO_Jorae says:
XO: Thanks.....Stressed, Ridges?
OPS_Verdi says:
::smiles at the SO::
Capt_Fletcher says:
::looks to the XO:: XO: Put me on ship to ship....
Gul_Darheel says:
::hears the chimes and wonders why they are ringing to come in:: OPS: Enter.
SO_Raja says:
OPS: What fun is life if you can't enjoy the little things?
XO_Chalen says:
::gestures to the screen transmission as if to say:  YOU THINK?::
FCO_Khrex says:
ALL: It seems everyone wants to board our vessel. Romulans, Cardassians and Tzenkethi... oh my!
XO_Chalen says:
::presses a button::  FLETCHER:   You're on.
OPS_Verdi says:
::steps into the Cardassian's quarters::  Gul:  Captain Fletcher would like to met with you on the bridge.
SO_Raja says:
::Looks at the guest with wide eyes::
Capt_Fletcher says:
COM: TCO_Arat_Kern: Arat....   We have determined the cause of the transporter malfunction....
MO_Jorae says:
::Chuckles.....If they make it out of this one free and alive.....he'll need a good back rub.::
SO_Raja says:
::Once steps closer, tries to smell him::
OPS_Verdi says:
::watches the SO curiously::
Gul_Darheel says:
OPS: I see. ::gets up off of the uncomfortable bed and notices the SO staring at him and then smelling him:: SO: Can I help you!
TCO_Arat_Kern says:
#COM:Pharaoh:Fletcher: Federation technology is no doubt needs to be improved
XO_Chalen says:
::hopes Fletcher can pull this off::
SO_Raja says:
Gul: No Sir-r-r. never-r-r met someone like you befor-r-e. That is all
OPS_Verdi says:
Gul:  He's never met a Cardassian before.  ::smiles::  If you'll follow me?  ::steps out back into the corridor::
MO_Jorae says:
::Slides into a seat at an empty station watching what's going on.::
SO_Raja says:
Gul: May I ask you a question?
Capt_Fletcher says:
COM: Arat_Kern: Perhaps I should come over....  
Gul_Darheel says:
SO: I would appreciate it if you would not smell me.  OPS: Of coarse. ::follows the OPS::
Capt_Fletcher says:
COM: Arat_Kern: I believe that this information is best delivered in person....
Gul_Darheel says:
SO: Yes?
TCO_Arat_Kern says:
#COM:Pharaoh:Fletcher: Agreed.

ACTION: Fletcher is transported of the Pharaoh and appears on the bridge of the Tzenkethi ship.

XO_Chalen says:
::shakes his head 'NO' violently at Capt. Fletcher::
SO_Raja says:
Gul: Why do people dislike Car-r-rdiassins?
OPS_Verdi says:
*Fletcher*:  We are on our way to the bridge with Gul Darheel.  ::steps into a TL and notices the security team following behind::
CSO_McGrady says:
::immediately tries to establish a transporter lock on Fletcher::
CEO_Irvin says:

XO_Chalen says:
::Groans loudly::
FCO_Khrex says:
XO: Our captain is gone.
XO_Chalen says:
FCO:  Both of them.
Gul_Darheel says:
::looks over at the SO and looks very offended:: SO: What did you just ask?
Capt_Fletcher says:
::looks over to the XO with a look of 'Trust me... "
OPS_Verdi says:
*Fletcher*:  Are you there, Sir?
SO_Raja says:
::stops sniffing the air around the Cardassian::
XO_Chalen says:
CSO:   Have you got him, Mr. McGrady?
XO_Chalen says:
*OPS*:  Capt. Fletcher is no longer on board.  Get up here with the Gul.

ACTION: The Tzenkethi have raised their shields.

SO_Raja says:
Gul: Did I say something bad?
OPS_Verdi says:
::wonders what is going on now::
FCO_Khrex says:
XO: I never knew flatulence could render a man unconscious.... on second thought...
XO_Chalen says:
::sees the enemy shields snap on::
TCO_Arat_Kern says:
#::turns to Fletcher:: Capt: What do you want?
XO_Chalen says:
ALL:   RED ALERT!   SHEILDS UP!
OPS_Verdi says:
::as the TL doors open onto the bridge, gestures for the Gul to step out::
FCO_Khrex says:
::sniffs the air::
Gul_Darheel says:
::ignores the SO and keeps walking:: OPS: Has your officer not had proper training? ::points to the SO as he steps out::
XO_Chalen says:

FCO_Khrex says:
::smells lavender and rosehips, and looks at the Gul::
SO_Raja says:
::whispers to OPS:: Ops: Did say something wr-r-rong?
Capt_Fletcher says:
#TCO_Arat_Kern: I think we should contact the Pharaoh first to let them know I am OK.  The Commander Riggs is not accustom to this type of 'invitation'  He could react.
MO_Jorae says:
XO: Permission to stay and man Tactical?
OPS_Verdi says:

XO_Chalen says:

XO_Chalen says:
MO:  And Julia.......   ::points at the Gul::    Keep an eye on this one.
Capt_Fletcher says:
::turns around::  *XO* Commander... You there?
Gul_Darheel says:
::sits down wondering why everyone on this ship is so undisciplined::
FCO_Khrex says:
GUL: Please excuse him... he's sitting in the old captain's 'duty'.
OPS_Verdi says:
::looks up at the screen and starts to figure out what has happened::
XO_Chalen says:
COM: Fletcher:   We're here sir.    What's your situation?
MO_Jorae says:
XO: Now that could be VERY fun. ::Grins evilly at the Gul.::
Capt_Fletcher says:
*XO* I'm fine...   Stand down Red Alert......   
MO_Jorae says:
::Brings weapons up and locks them onto the other ship.::
XO_Chalen says:
Fletcher:   With all due respect sir........  They have you on board with their shields up.

::Begins scanning the area and sees that the ships have gone on the defensive::
Gul_Darheel says:
::looks over at the MO who is grinning at him since he was ease dropping:: MO: Problem?
OPS_Verdi says:
::watches the exchange::
Capt_Fletcher says:
#*XO* I know that things aren't as they should be, but I assure that this though it's not acceptable, it is....   'Par for the course...'
FCO_Khrex says:
XO: Maybe they're protecting him from the Cardassians.
MO_Jorae says:
Gul: I don't have any; however you may if you try anything......ask the XO.  I'm known for inflicting pain.
FCO_Khrex says:
::looks at the Gul::
FCO_Khrex says:
GUL: Uh... no offense.
OPS_Verdi says:
MO:  Gul Darheel is our guest.
TCO_Arat_Kern says:
#::turns to Fletcher:: Capt: Now... you wish to talk.... talk...leans back in chair
Gul_Darheel says:
MO: If you are threatening me I will make sure I have a talk to your Starfleet superiors.
XO_Chalen says:
COM: Fletcher:  Understood sir.
Capt_Fletcher says:
#*XO* Have Lieutenant's Irvin's analysis transmitted over at once.
MO_Jorae says:
OPS: Yes.....and I'm just explaining to him he needs to behave.....
SO_Raja says:
::Steals quick glances at the Gul in between scans::
XO_Chalen says:
MO:  Julia, bring us back to Yellow alert, keep the shields up and be ready to drop them for transport should the CSO get the chance.
MO_Jorae says:
Gul: I'm not in any way threatening you....I'm just letting you know you need to cooperate with us.
XO_Chalen says:
COM: Fletcher:   Aye sir.  Sending over the CEO's report now.   ::sends transmission from his panel::
Capt_Fletcher says:
#::turns and faces TCO_Arat_Kern::  TCO_Arat_Kern: There is an analysis being transmitted over as we speak....
MO_Jorae says:
XO: Aye..... ::Stands down to yellow.::
TCO_Arat_Kern says:
# <T_CTO> ::paces back and forth nervously::
CMO_Stidd says:
::Overhears the Gul's Comment and steps over to him:: Gul: I am her superior here, how may I assist you?
Capt_Fletcher says:
TCO_Arat_Kern: We have well documented proof that the malfunction occurred here, on this ship.
XO_Chalen says:
OPS:  Open a separate channel to the Cardassian ship.  Let them know their Gul is all right.
Gul_Darheel says:
MO: And I would like you to use proper etiquette. I have dealt with your kind before and they act proper, which you do not.
OPS_Verdi says:
XO:  Will do.
Capt_Fletcher says:
TCO_Arat_Kern: Or at least originated here.
SO_Raja says:
::eyes the interaction between Gul and the CMO::
MO_Jorae says:
Gul: It's properly.....And I am capable of it.
OPS_Verdi says:
::opens an audio channel to the Cardassian ship and explains that the investigation is ongoing while Gul Darheel remains their honoured guest::
FCO_Khrex says:
GUL: Please excuse my crew mates. It seems she just had a physical and the doc forgot to remove something...
Gul_Darheel says:
MO: You are not showing it. ::looks over at the CMO:: CMO: I would like it if you teach your officer some respect.
TCO_Arat_Kern says:
# ::smiles:: Capt: I am to believe this?
Gul_Darheel says:
::looks over at the FCO:: FCO: I see.
XO_Chalen says:
FCO:  Missed your calling as a diplomat, Ensign.
MO_Jorae says:
Gul: Many have tried......None have succeeded.
OPS_Verdi says:
::thinks they should all lighten up on the Cardassian until they have some proof of their involvement::
TCO_Arat_Kern says:
# <T_CTO> ::eyes widen in shock::
Gul_Darheel says:
MO: Then I suggest you keep your mouth shut.
XO_Chalen says:
::silently appreciates having Julia on the bridge.   It's a tough love session for their Cardassian Guest::
FCO_Khrex says:
XO: Well I'd prefer to remain in one piece... if that's what you mean sir.
MO_Jorae says:
Gul: Unfortunately that's an impossibility as well.
CMO_Stidd says:
Gul: I believe she is merely following orders at this point...however, MO: By the book if you please Miss. Jorae.
SO_Raja says:
::whispers:: CSO: Ar-r-e all Car-r-rdassians this mean?
Capt_Fletcher says:
#Kern: As a close and old friend of your late senior officer, I have no reason to lie or manufacture data.  Have your people analyze the data coming over.  You will see it to be authentic and unaltered.  Our sensor and transporter logs are accompanying the transmission.
FCO_Khrex says:
::wonders if the Gul will file a formal complaint to Starfleet regarding his treatment::
CSO_McGrady says:
SO: I suppose I wouldn't know, Mr. Raja.
CNS-Starlight says:
::walks out of office and heads to the bridge::
XO_Chalen says:
SO:  Mr. Raja, ask me that question some time later when you're in the mood for a story.
Capt_Fletcher says:
#Kern: Is there some place more private we can talk?  There is more to this than meets the eye...
Gul_Darheel says:
::is making notes to remember to inform Starfleet command how their officers treat a guest::
TCO_Arat_Kern says:

CNS-Starlight says:
::walks towards the CSO::
Capt_Fletcher says:
::looks over to the T_CTO::  
XO_Chalen says:
Gul:  If you feel that you're not being treated very well here, remember that you are still the primary murder suspect on MY SHIP.  I think our hospitality is more than by the book.   ::turns his chair back to the screen::
Capt_Fletcher says:
#Kern: We REALLY need to speak in private..... 
OPS_Verdi says:

Gul_Darheel says:
XO: Your ship? I though this was Captain Fletcher's. And I DID NOT commit a Murder!
CSO_McGrady says:

CNS-Starlight says:
CSO: alr-r-right Sir-r-r..
FCO_Khrex says:
XO: Captain, perhaps it wasn't such a good idea to accuse the Gul of murder.
Capt_Fletcher says:
#T_CTO: I Know they don't!  So what does that leave?
XO_Chalen says:
Gul:  Right now I'm in command.  ::narrows his eyes:: And until we prove what you did or did not do............ deal with it.
OPS_Verdi says:
::thinks the FCO has it, but probably shouldn't have said it out loud::
