We find the U.S.S. Ganymede on her way to a little rarity amongst planets; one that does not spin about any axis. One side always faces its sun, the other, always in darkness. The reason for the trip: civil war has broken out under strange circumstances, and the Ganymede has been sent to investigate the cause, and hopefully put a stop to it.
<<<<<<<Begin Mission>>>>>>
CNS_Lt_Smith says:
::Is on the Bridge tapping buttons on his console looking up information::
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
::On the bridge of the Ganymede, sitting at Science I. He reviews sensors data from long range scans, and also skims the minimal data he can find in the database about Eta Serpenstis::
OPS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
::in TL, heading to the Bridge::
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
::Walking around her office, reading over a report::
CNS_Lt_Smith says:
::He taps his Combadge:: *CO*: Smith to Matisse. I have the information you have requested.
CTO_Lt_Ashworth says:
:: In the TL with OPS. Hopes he wasn't too stern on Trevin.::
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
::on the bridge in the center seat::  FCO: ETA Mr. Weav?
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
*CNS*: Join me in my ready room then please. :: goes and gets a drink::
CNS_Lt_Smith says:
*CO*: I will be there in two seconds. ::He leaves his chair and moves to the CO's Ready Room. He rings the chime::
OPS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
CTO:  Don't worry about Trevin, he'll be all right.  He needs to know that he can't talk to me like he did.
FCO_Ens_Weav says:
XO: 19 minutes at current speed Cmdr.
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
::On his way to the bridge with the final reports on repairs/upgrades completed at Star base. ::
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
CNS: yes yeees come in already ::smiles and takes her seat on the couch::
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
::He looks at the database and sighs, reviewing the reports on the system. It appears that Starfleet has had minimal contact with both the races of Eta Serpentis III - unfortunate for them, seeing as it will make negotiations more difficult, as trust has not been built::
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
FCO: Thank you Ens.  Bring us into standard orbit upon arrival.
CNS_Lt_Smith says:
::Enters and moves over to a chair. He sits down:: CO: Hey I had to ring the chime. ::smiles::
CTO_Lt_Ashworth says:
OPS: Yes, that was very uncharacteristic of him. But he is young and much like me at his age.
FCO_Ens_Weav says:
XO: That was my next question Cmdr. You want synchronies orbit, and if so over which side?
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
::Takes a drink of her juice:: CNS: what do you have for me Chris?
OPS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
CTO:  I just wonder if he is starting to act up because we  both have careers.
CNS_Lt_Smith says:
CO: Well first off lets start with their customs. Pretty much to narrow it down you need to take advantage of their hospitality. If you don't they may take it as an insult.
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
::He control console beeps as sensor information is routed to his console. A diagram of the system comes up and he looks over it, he can clearly see the planet Chozat, it's three lunar satellites, and a nearby asteroid belt...nothing too much out of the ordinary::
CTO_Lt_Ashworth says:
:: Puts the incident behind him and prepares to get to work.::
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
:: Exits TL, crosses to XO. ::  XO: Here's the final report on repairs and upgrades that were completed at Star base. We just finished our last inspection. Everything's up to Starfleet spec -- I'll get them higher as I'm able, sir.
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
CNS: in other words, if they feed me a gross worm as a meal, I have to eat it?
CNS_Lt_Smith says:
CO: Exactly you win the prize. ::Smiles::
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
::Bringing up some of the lateral sensor pallets, he begins to run long range scans on Chozat, doing his best to complete an analysis of the planet from this range::
CTO_Lt_Ashworth says:
OPS: That may be the case. I just hope he gets this rebelliousness out of his system fairly quickly.
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
FCO: Let's set up an orbit to circumnavigate, allow science to scan both sides, when we need to take on the passengers, alter to a synchronous orbit above their location.
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
::Cringes:: CNS: next...or other possible no disgusting examples
CNS_Lt_Smith says:
CO: Now for details on the Ambassadors and some background information...
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
<EO_Plotski>: *CEO* We have a slight perturbation in some of the systems, sir.
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
CEO: Thanks Chief, keep up the good work.  Any progress on the problem at hand?
OPS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
CTO:  I hope so too.  ::exits the TL and goes to her post, good thing she remembers what her assignment is and begins to do some research of the different species of Eta Serpentis III in hopes of possibly finding out if someone is supplying weapons to the local inhabitants::
FCO_Ens_Weav says:
XO: Aye, sir. I may have to bring her into the system at impulse, there's a couple moons I'd like to avoid
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
FCO: At your discression Ens.
CTO_Lt_Ashworth says:
:: Prepares to take over his station as soon as the lift stops.:: Enters the bridge and looks into his sensor readings.::
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
*EO_Plotski* Route those systems and a time snapshot to Eng_1 on the bridge, ensign.
CNS_Lt_Smith says:
CO: The Luxotian are the species found in the light. These are lizard like people who have no eyes. Their scales are heat sensitive , which is used instead of eyes. Also they have two fingers per hand and fangs. Their type of government is monarchy.
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
::He reaches around to another section of the L-console to check on the proximity sensors - they haven't detected any other starship activity - yet::
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
XO: Not much to go on, sir. There's a team working on it, now.
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
:: takes another sip of her drink:: CNS: I think a worm is the less of my worries..
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
CEO: Understood Chief.
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
SO: Anything on sensors Mr. Alezka?
Host AMB_L`Zongoth says:
<EO_Lt_Lai> ::Asleep on a bio-bed, a virus making him very ill and unfit for duty::
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
:: Crosses to Eng_1 ::  Computer: Outline and highlight perturbations in systems, scoring a common timeframe.
CTO_Lt_Ashworth says:
:: Double checks the readings and reports.:: CO/XO: We are now close enough that small areas of weapons fire are evident on the surface. Apparently they couldn't wait. I'll get more detailed readings as soon as the data comes in.
CNS_Lt_Smith says:
CO: You may be correct. Now the Ateron, who are found in the dark are rather large and covered in pale blue fur. They have large black or yellow eyes and are a monarchy as well.
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
XO: Nothing unusual sir...I do have the Eta Serpentis system on sensors however...::He taps several controls, and a diagram of the system comes up on the view screen, detailing the system and the planetary bodies within it::
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
XO: Sir, perhaps you should see this?
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
:: Indicating the readouts on Eng_1::
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
::stands and crosses over to the CEO::  CTO: Thank you, keep me posted.
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
CEO: What's the problem?
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
CNS: what would be a suitable place where both would be comfortable to meet?
CTO_Lt_Ashworth says:
XO: Yes, Commander.
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
::He motions to the display:: XO: Here are the eleven planets of the system, the main asteroid belt...and our destination, Choazt. ::He highlights the planet on the view screen, and zooms in the display to show the two contrasting sides on the surface::
FCO_Ens_Weav says:
XO: Slowing to impulse , standard orbit in 6 minutes Cmdr.
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
XO: It may be nothing but..  Well, the IDF and the warp field had a slight fluctuation.. right ... there.  It's back to normal but something happened?
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
::nods to the SO and turns his attention back to the Chief::  FCO: Acknowledged Ens.
CTO_Lt_Ashworth says:
:: Begins to run cross reference scans of the energy output of the weapons used on the surface.::
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
CEO: Do you think it was a problem with our systems, or an external disturbance?
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
::He nods back to the Executive Officer and gives a slight sigh - it appears as if his research has been fruitless, and is not very key at the time. Alezka goes back to his sensors, and runs an analysis of the system::
OPS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
::notices some random power fluctuations appear in some systems then all went back to normal::  XO:  Cmdr,  I just detected some power fluctuations starting to appear in some systems, they appear to be random and they appear for an instant then all goes back to normal.
CNS_Lt_Smith says:
::Thinks for a moment:: CO: Anywhere would be acceptable but I would suggest somewhere where we have some sort of control. Meaning defiantly not on their planet, just in case.
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
OPS: Sounds like the same glitch the Chief just found.
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
XO: Well, sir, we just left a Star base with full repairs. We should not be having any internal problems.
OPS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
XO:  Acknowledged.
CMO_Lt_Aria says:
::Completes her analysis report on the planet.::
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
::He speaks up quickly:: XO/CEO: Could it possibly be a result of the region of space we're in? There may be spatial anomalies present we aren't aware of...
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
CNS: On the ship sounds ok, the observation room should be good.  Now, I will be attending for sure, can you recommend anyone else?
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
CEO: Then I suggest you find the source of the problem Chief.  ::smiles::  Coordinate with Ops and Science as needed, see if you can correlate any of our other sensor readings with the fluctuations.
FCO_Ens_Weav says:
XO: Cmdr. Sensor contacts, 2 ships leaving the moons....checking
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
SO: Excellent thought Lt.  CEO: Start there.
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
XO: Aye, sir.
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
::He taps several controls and orders members of the Stellar Cartography department to begin scanning for local spatial phenomenon::
CNS_Lt_Smith says:
CO: You read my mind.. I was going to request to be in attendance just in case. I am trained in diplomacy, but of course I would allow you to do all of the talking unless specified otherwise.
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
SO/OPS: Lets cross our records and see if we see a common point where this occurred. Perhaps launch a probe into that region?
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
CTO: Analysis on the ships, Lt.
CMO_Lt_Aria says:
*CO*: Captain, I have completed my analysis report on the planet we are en route to.  It has been forwarded to you.  Is there anything you wish to know right away?
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
FCO: Can you determine a destination?
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
CNS: was hoping you would join ::smiles::
FCO_Ens_Weav says:
XO: Two different configurations, Luxotian and,Ateron I believe Cmdr
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
::He nods:: CEO: I have my staff working on the Science end of things. I should be able to configure a probe with minimal difficulties...
CNS_Lt_Smith says:
::Smiles and notices the CMO's voice on Joey's Combadge::
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
*CMO*: just a short brief if possible
CTO_Lt_Ashworth says:
XO: At once Commander. :: Brings tac  sensors to bear on the ships.::
OPS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
CEO/SO:  Good plan, here is what I have.  ::gives the CEO what readings she has::
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
CNS: anyone else you would suggest, or just you an me.  Maybe a security member?
FCO_Ens_Weav says:
CTO: Can you confirm my readings?
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
::Tapping several more keys, he begins to program a probe through the main computer, ordering it to follow their flight plan, and return to the point of their systems fluxuations::
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
OPS/SO: I'm aligning the time occurrences. I'm guessing that they'll all line up.
CMO_Lt_Aria says:
*CO*: An Away Team going to the "light" side of the planet will need to take solar and gamma precautions and bring more than the customary fluids.  An Away Team going to the "dark" side will need to take semi-cold weather precautions and additional energy and heat resources.
CNS_Lt_Smith says:
CO: I was going to suggest Lieutenant Ashworth but he may be needed on the Bridge. Of course if he did attend he would have to pretend he was not a security officer, just an observer.
CMO_Lt_Aria says:
*CO*: That is it in a "nutshell".
OPS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
CEO/SO:  That would be my guess as well.
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
*CMO*: thank you Lt, pass that along to the XO as well please
CTO_Lt_Ashworth says:
XO: Weapon fire data makes them appear to be generic in basis. Simple weaponry. Computer is having trouble identifying them with all the multiphasic discharges.
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
CEO/OPS: They may not line up...spatial phenomenon could distort anything, from space-time to random distances...
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
CTO: Are you saying they're firing on each other?
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
CNS: I do not see why?
OPS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
CEO/SO:  I wouldn't be surprised if that would be the case.
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
SO/OPS: They do not line up. We'll need to pay attention to a range of times along our flight path.
CMO_Lt_Aria says:
*XO*: Cmdr, did you get that synopsis of my planet analysis?
CTO_Lt_Ashworth says:
XO: Aye, sir. It appears the war has begun already.
CNS_Lt_Smith says:
CO: This is a diplomatic situation. It would not look "good" on our part to have a Security Officer. It may make them feel like we do not trust them.
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
::He nods slowly and makes an adjustment to his probes programming, to scan at multiple points along the flight plan:: CEO: Probe ready for launch, sir...
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
*CMO*: It's on a PADD somewhere in my office, I'm sorry Lt, I just didn't have time to read it.  How about the executive summary?
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
CNS: ok, have someone standing out side then
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
CTO: Oh, that's wonderful.  So much for the cease fire.  Be ready to go to Yellow Alert, don't just yet, but we might get caught in the middle of this.
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
*CO*: Captain to the bridge.
CNS_Lt_Smith says:
CO: Understood.
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
XO: Lt Alezka has configured a probe to backtrack our flight path and see what we can find. Permission to launch?
OPS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
CEO/SO:  Understood.
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
CEO: Permission granted.
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
::Stands quick, and carefully so not spill her drink:: CNS: that’s are queue Chris, we better get out there
FCO_Ens_Weav says:
XO: The two ships are on an intercept course for our location Cmdr. Shall I continue with standard orbit?
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
SO: Launch probe.  :: Crosses over to stand behind Lt Alezka ::
Host AMB_L`Zongoth says:
ACTION: The two alien vessels approach the Ganymede from either side, and stop. One is a brilliant gold/bronze, while the other is a sleek black.
CNS_Lt_Smith says:
::Stands up:: CO: After you of course.
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
::Winks and heads out:: XO: report
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
FCO: All stop Ens.
CNS_Lt_Smith says:
::Follows Joey out and looks around::
CMO_Lt_Aria says:
*XO*: It is really quite logical Commander.  A Team to the "light" side needs to take heat precautions to protect against solar and gamma desiccation in addition to the obvious of extra fluids.  A team to the "dark" side will need to be prepared to work in a DARK and COLD environment.  So additional light and heat resources are needed.
FCO_Ens_Weav says:
XO: Aye sir helm answering all stop
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
::He nods and presses several controls. As he does, a light on his control board blinks several times, and then goes green:: CEO: Probe launched sir...we should receive telemetry momentarily...
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
CO: We've arrived, but it seems to be too late.  There are two vessels flanking us, one of each of the races, and up until just now, they were firing on each other.  There is also weapons discharge registering on the planet
CTO_Lt_Ashworth says:
XO: Understood Commander. :: Preps to go to yellow alert.:: XO: One more thing. The weapons fire seems to be decreasing in one faction. It appears that one side is about to achieve their end.
CMO_Lt_Aria says:
*XO*: Oh need I mention one more tid bit of information.  Nights are short on either side with very long days.
CNS_Lt_Smith says:
::Hears the XO's report and sighs::
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
XO: hail them, and found out what happened immediately
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
CO: We've had minor system fluctuations ourselves, the Chief is on that.
FCO_Ens_Weav says:
::Looks up at the view screen::
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
OPS: Open a channel to both vessels, split screen.
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
XO: we just had the rust bucket fixed, what now?
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
*CMO*: Thank you Lt, I'll try to be better prepared next time.
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
::After several moments, sensor data begins to pour onto his control panel:: CEO: This is...odd...
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
CO: Unknown, we’ve launched a probe to track down the source of the disturbances.
CTO_Lt_Ashworth says:
XO: The ships in question show no threat. No weapons, their shields are down. But they are communicating with each other.
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
::Takes her seat::
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
CTO: Maybe things aren't as bad as we thought.
CNS_Lt_Smith says:
::Takes his seat as well. He then moves his console in front of him::
OPS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
XO:  Aye.  ::goes to do what is asked but they are being hailed::  XO:  Cmdr.  We are being hailed from the of the ships, they call themselves, the Luxotian's.
CMO_Lt_Aria says:
::Sees the Yellow alert.:: *Med Team Yellow*:  Guess what time it is?  ::In a very unusual tone for her.::
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
OPS: On screen.
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
:: Watches data coming in from probe. ::   SO: What is it?
CTO_Lt_Ashworth says:
XO: Any war on a planetary scale is bad, sir.
OPS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
::puts the hail on screen::  XO:  On screen.
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
::He rechecks the sensor results, and then orders the probe to run a self diagnostic:: CEO: I'm not picking up anything...just...empty space.
CMO_Lt_Aria says:
*Med Team Red*: Stand-by and hop to if and when you see it all go RED!  ::Smirks and chuckles to self.::
CNS_Lt_Smith says:
XO: It's like the World Wars in Earth's History. There either has to be a treaty or one will destroy another.. or the planet.
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
COM: Luxotian Ship: This is Commander Mordane, of the USS Ganymede.  What is it you wish of us?
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
SO: Nothing? Keep the probe on its trajectory, in case it does come across something.
Host AMB_L`Zongoth says:
::An image of an eyeless lizard, covered in dark green scales shows up on the view screen. It is the Luxotian ambassador:: COMM: Ganymede: Greetings. I am Ambassador L'Zongoth. Myself and the Ateron Ambassador have agreed that I will speak with you first.
CMO_Lt_Aria says:
::Walks out of her office and over to the bio-beds and picks up a laser scalpel.::  Self:  Hmm,  What shall I do with this?  ::Goes over it in her hand.::
CNS_Lt_Smith says:
::He looks up at the screen seeing what he senses::
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
CEO: Aye sir...::He moves the data onto a second display and runs more scans of the region, taking in as much data about the planet surface and the two ships as possible - keeping an eye on the probe::
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
COMM: Zongoth: Understood Ambassador.  If I may inquire before we begin however...  I was under the impression there was a cease fire, yet we have registered weapons exchanges both on the planet and between your two vessels.  Can you please update us on the situation?
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
::He watches as the probes telemetry ends suddenly, and his screen goes black. Moments later it returns, and the self diagnostic shows a failure in the propulsion system:: CEO: Ummm...sir? I'm having trouble maintaining control of the probe...
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
SO/OPS: Did we get any sense of direction when we saw the fluctuations? Did we pass through something or was something directed at us?
CNS_Lt_Smith says:
::He whispers to the XO:: XO: He is very calm and controlled. I do not believe he is one to lie or anything at this point.
CMO_Lt_Aria says:
::Slips the laser scalpel in her smock pocket, grabs a med kit and exits sickbay and wanders the halls.::
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
SO: Be ready to destruct the probe if need be, Lt.
OPS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
CEO/SO:  My readings shows that we passed through them.
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
CEO: Unknown...but whatever it is - it's effecting our probe...
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
::nods slightly to the CNS::
Host AMB_L`Zongoth says:
::Grins, his fangs showing:: COMM: XO: The ceasefire is merely....tenuous. There are factions that seem to fight in select areas no matter what. They are more than likely being taken care of by authorities.
CMO_Lt_Aria says:
<Dr Zeek>:  ::Sees the CMO leave confuzzled that she is acting strange.::
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
SO: But the probe's malfunctions occurred in a different place than what we experienced, correct?
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
COMM: L'Zongoth: Understood Ambassador.  We are at your disposal.  ::indicating the Captain and himself::

CTO_Lt_Ashworth says:
:: Whispers to the XO.:: XO; That would show the rapid ceasation  of hostilities.
CMO_Lt_Aria says:
<Dr Zeek>:  ::Takes another scan of the SO and compares it with the other ones.::
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
CEO: Within the same region...however not the 'exact' same location, no sir...but very close. Odd...::He pauses as his sensors pick up new data on the planet::...CEO/XO: Sirs...I'm detecting an unidentified magnetic field on the planet of Chozat.
CMO_Lt_Aria says:
<Change all references to the SO to references of the EO.::
CTO_Lt_Ashworth says:
:: Whispers to the XO.:: XO: That would explain the rapid cessation of hostilities on the planet, sir.
Host AMB_L`Zongoth says:
COMM: XO/CO: Excellent. We wish for your representatives to be ready in moments to come aboard our vessels. Would two minutes be enough time for that to happen?
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
COMM: L'Zongoth: I was hopping you would be willing to come here
CNS_Lt_Smith says:
::Looks over at the CO after he hears what the Ambassador suggested::

OPS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
CEO/SO: This is getting old, fast.
CMO_Lt_Aria says:
::Looks at each person scrupulously in Engineering.::
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
CNS: Finally the bi part of bipartisan discourse, things were getting a bit one-sided.  ::whispered::
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
::Waits and thinks of the possibilities:: XO: I’m hoping for at less 3 of use to go over..
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
::He gives a soft sigh and looks over towards the Bolian Chief Engineer:: CEO: What systems were effected this time?
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
::nods::  CO: I wouldn't recommend any less Captain.
CNS_Lt_Smith says:
::Whispers:: XO: Yes I was thinking that as well.
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
SO: Bussard collectors. They're back online now but... We need to find out why this is happening and shield ourselves!
CMO_Lt_Aria says:
<Dr Zeek>: EO: Ok time to do some chart checking to see what exactly Dr Aria gave you and how much.  Your just out like a light.
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
::He nods slowly and gives a heavy sigh:: CEO: I'm on it sir...without much luck, I apologize...
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
::Tapes her fingers waiting for an answer:: CNS: what do you think of all this?
OPS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
::as she waits for the results of her scans, she gets a hail from the other ship::  XO/CO:  We are being hailed from the other ship, the Ateron.
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
OPS: I'm not very happy about this either, commander. I hope we can pinpoint what's happening, fast!
CNS_Lt_Smith says:
CO: So far I do not like the idea of going to their ship. Also it seems interesting to me that the two seem to be working semi together.
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
OPS: put it thought
OPS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
::puts the hail on screen::
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
SO: You're doing fine. Let me know what you need to get this done.
CMO_Lt_Aria says:
<Dr Zeek>: ::Reviews the chart and meds list dosages,  makes a startling discovery then runs a scan to confirm.::
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
CEO: A miracle? ::He gives a half smile and then goes back to his sensor data, hoping to come across some revelation::
OPS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
CEO:  I concur with that sentiment.
Host AMB_Anataga says:
::A large, thin blue furred creature with large eyes appears:: COMM: CO/XO: You are the Captain. Good. I am Anataga. You request to know how many you can bring with you?
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
:: chuckles ::  SO: I'll try to get one miracle, stat.
CMO_Lt_Aria says:
<Dr Zeek>:  EO: No wonder your sleeping beauty, Dr Aria's got you out for the count.  ::Thinks and a look of concern washes over him.::
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
::Eyes go wide:: COM: yes.. I was curious.
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
::His eyes light up as a revelation comes to him:: CEO: I've got it! ::He almost cries out and then looks embarrassed for his slight outburst:: ALL; Sorry...
Host AMB_Anataga says:
::Looks the Captain up and down with his yellow eyes:: COMM: CO/XO: So that both sides are given equitable treatment, we request one officer each to stay with us for the rejuvenation period.
CMO_Lt_Aria says:
<Dr Zeek>: Nurse: Start an old fashioned IV of 1 liter of saline on the EO to get him on the road to wakefulness, I've got a call to make.::
CNS_Lt_Smith says:
::Ignores the SO's slight outburst as he listens::
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
SO: What is it, Lt?
CMO_Lt_Aria says:
::Walks up to the CEO and SO and looks at them quizzically.::
CNS_Lt_Smith says:
::He looks over at the CO and then back at the screen::
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
COM: I'm sorry, One officer each?
OPS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
::is beginning to wonder what Starfleet has gotten them into this time::
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
CEO: Chozat doesn't spin in a conventional sense...but like all planets, it's core is constantly in motion...it's generating a fluctuation magnetic field, which is causing disruptions in our own EM field...
Host AMB_Anataga says:
::Nods slowly:: COMM: CO: Uneven numbers would suggest favoritism to one side. We also have another request of your vessel while your delegates are with us.
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
::nudges the Captain::  CO: May I...just one question.  ::whispered::
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
:: groans ::   SO: So it's sending out EM waves? Any chance of figuring out a pattern, something that we can avoid?
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
CEO: We just need to find a way to modulate our shields, it should help protect us against the random nature of the planet's field...
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
CEO: I'll get on it sir...
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
COM: so I will be going over alone? What would that be?
CMO_Lt_Aria says:
::Looks around the bridge.:: Self: Hmm how did I get here?
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
::Whispers:: XO: yes?
OPS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
::whispers::  CMO:  You okay, Doctor?
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
CMO: Doctor?
CMO_Lt_Aria says:
<Dr Zeek>:  *Bridge*:  Um Bridge, this is Dr Zeek down in Sickbay, I think that Dr. Aria is not feeling well.
OPS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
*Dr. Zeek*:  How so?
CMO_Lt_Aria says:
::Shoots a toothy smile at the CEO.:: CEO: Need a doctor?  What is the problem?  Where does it hurt?  Let me fix it?
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
::turns to the Ambassador::  COMM: Antaga: Ambassador, I understand your reasoning, however I am concerned about security.  The current situation both on the planet, and in the space around it has been shown to be hostile.  What guarantees do we have about the safety of our diplomatic parties if we are not allowed a security escort?
CTO_Lt_Ashworth says:
:: Sees the Doctor with a blank look on her face and prepares for anything.::
Host AMB_Anataga says:
::rubs his chin:: COMM: CO: We would allow two officers each. However, the secondary mission of your vessel is to seek out the suppliers of the weaponry being siphoned to the warring factions.
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
CMO: Uhm, no, I'm fine. Are you ok?
CMO_Lt_Aria says:
::Turns to the OPS.:: OPS: So Cmdr, need anything mended?  ::Pulls out the scalpel and holds it in her hand.::
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
:: A little nervous at seeing a toothy grin from the doctor. ::
CTO_Lt_Ashworth says:
:: Moves to shadow the CMO and stay out of the visual feed.::
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
XO: I will be taking the CNS, he can use a phaser cmdr ::stands::
OPS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
::looks at the scalpel::  CMO: No, I am fine.
CMO_Lt_Aria says:
<Dr Zeek>: *OPS*:  Um Ma'am, I'm not sure exactly, her behavior is rather erratic and she has made a medical error with the EO.
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
::whispered::  CO: How about asking for a few minutes to decide on members...we need to talk.
CTO_Lt_Ashworth says:
::  Draws his phaser and sets it for stun should the Doctor carry out the implied threat.::
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
::He does his best to track the magnetic field of the planet, and find a way to defend the Ganymede against it's effects::
OPS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
*Dr. Zeek*:  Understood.  I'll see what I can do to get her to return to Sickbay.
CMO_Lt_Aria says:
::Spins around and faces the CTO, placing the scalpel back in her pocket.:: CTO:  What, what is this.  You gonna shoot the good Doctor?
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
SO: Perhaps we can synchronize our shields with sensors so that as soon as we detect a EM pulse we can boost our shields?
CNS_Lt_Smith says:
::He looks over at the CO and XO::
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
:: Watching the CMO/CTO/OPS while talking to the SO over his shoulder. ::
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
XO: CTO and maybe SO on the other?
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
CEO: That might just work...we'd need the assistance of Lieutenant Ashworth, to tie the sensors into shield control...
CTO_Lt_Ashworth says:
CMO: Not at all Doctor. Provided you behave yourself.
CMO_Lt_Aria says:
::Moves right past the CTO without batting an eye and goes toward the CO.::
OPS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
*Security*:  Security to the Bridge immediately, the Chief Medical Officer is ill and needs to return to Sickbay.
CNS_Lt_Smith says:
CO/XO: If those to additional I would suggest Lieutenant Ashworth accompany you because you need a "security" escort.
SO_LtJG_Alezka says:
::He gets to work programming the sensors pod to lock onto the planet's core, and monitor all EM activity - hopefully feeding the data directly to the shield emitters::
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
SO: Start working on it while I get the necessary permissions.
CMO_Lt_Aria says:
::Hugs the CO tight then releases her and plops down in the middle of the floor.::
Host CO_Captain_Matisse says:
Self: what the! CMO: what is your problem Lt!
CEO_Lt_Mash`ev says:
XO/CO: We need to tie in sensors with shields to protect the Ganymede from EM waves from the planet.
Host XO_Cmdr_Mordane says:
::looks incredibly astonished at the behavior of the Doctor::  CTO: I'd call the Doctor to put her under medical constraints...but well...how about security constraints for the time being?
CMO_Lt_Aria says:
CO: I don't have a problem ma'am.  ::Sitting on the floor smiling really wide.::
