<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Resume>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

CO Cmdr Westland says:
::sit back in the big chair.::
CSO Lt Malor says:
::heading to the transporter room::
CMO Lt Tales says:
::waiting in the transporter room for the away team officers to arrive::
CSO Lt Malor says:
::arrives at the transporter room and nods to the CMO he is ready:: CMO: I'll take point?
CMO Lt Tales says:
CSO: Yes Lt... That would help... Any ideas what we might find over there?
CO Cmdr Westland says:
::tabs his COM badge.:: *CMO*: You guys ready yet?
CSO Lt Malor says:
CMO: Hopefully deck 6. Which deck are we beaming over to?

ACTION: The external lights on the Venturer keep flashing on and off at regular intervals, kinda like the four way flashers on a car.

CMO Lt Tales says:
::hands the CSO a Breather Mask::  CSO: I've asked everyone to wear these just in case of infection or such like...
CSO Lt Malor says:
CMO: Not an EVA suit?
CO Cmdr Westland says:
::Wonders who left the trouble lights blinking. There is enough room around the vessel to avoid it.::

ACTION: A small team of medics and engineers turn up in the transporter room in EVA suits.

CSO Lt Malor says:
CMO: Ah here come the cavalry.
CMO Lt Tales says:
CSO: Yep, I'll take that suggestion ::heads to get an EVA from the locker::
CMO Lt Tales says:
*CO*:  We're nearly ready now Sir
CSO Lt Malor says:
::takes an EVA suit:: CMO: Aye Sir.
CSO Lt Malor says:
::finishes getting into an EVA suit and pushes the air freshener button::

ACTION: The CSO's suit fills with the fresh scent of a pine forest.

CMO Lt Tales says:
::with his EVA suit on heads up to the transporter PADD::
CSO Lt Malor says:
::takes a deep breath::
CMO Lt Tales says:
CSO: You going to be able to see anything with that magic tree dangling in your helmet
CSO Lt Malor says:
::takes the tree out:: CMO: Must have been Westland using the suit last.
Transporter Chief says:
::taps his fingers on the console::
CSO Lt Malor says:
::stands ready for transport::
Transporter Chief says:
All: Ready to go now sirs?
CMO Lt Tales says:
::looks around at the away team::  Chief:  Yep ready as we'll ever be.... Energise.
Transporter Chief says:
::sends the away team to the Venturer::

ACTION: The team materialise on the bridge of the USS Venturer

CSO Lt Malor says:
@::arrives on the Venturer and takes a tricorder out::
VXO Cmdr McGee says:
@CSO: It's about time you got here.
CMO Lt Tales says:
@::looks around the bridge of the Venturer, making an immediate medical assessment before pulling out his tricorder::
CSO Lt Malor says:
@::looks around:: VXO: Yes we had a little dinner first, enjoyed the scenery, went and got a few souvenirs... we came as fast as we could!!
CMO Lt Tales says:
@::walks over to the VXO:: VXO:  I'm Dr. Tales and this is Lt. Malor, we tried to Hail you!
CMO Lt Tales says:
@VXO: In the end we had to get your transponder code from Starfleet so that we could drop your shields and beam over.
VXO Cmdr McGee says:
@CMO: I had expected your commanding officer to be here.
CSO Lt Malor says:
@VXO: He's.... weird.
VXO Cmdr McGee says:
@CMO: In case you hadn't noticed, we're on minimum power here and our communications are down.
CMO Lt Tales says:
@VXO: Why? Its not usual protocol for the CO to lead an away team and unfortunately we are in transition of our XO
CSO Lt Malor says:
@VXO: So what's on deck six? Top secret prisoners? Scary beast? Ooh ooh maybe a casino!?
VXO Cmdr McGee says:
@CSO: That's not any of your business Lieutenant... I need to speak to your CO.
CMO Lt Tales says:
@::looks at his tricorder and scans for airborne viral infectious molecules::
CSO Lt Malor says:
@::venting his frustrations due to the fact he’s so close to the damned Cardassian space::
VXO Cmdr McGee says:
@CMO: Furthermore, your team are not to try and access deck 6 in any way, shape or form.
CMO Lt Tales says:
@VXO:  And why do you need to speak to our CO?
CSO Lt Malor says:
@Self: Greeee-aaaa-t!
CMO Lt Tales says:
@::waits for his tricorder to perform its scan::
VXO Cmdr McGee says:
@CMO: Do I need a reason?
CSO Lt Malor says:
@Aloud: Does that include scans?
VXO Cmdr McGee says:
@CSO: Yes that includes scans.
CMO Lt Tales says:
@VXO: Okay, your communications are down then?   ::removes his EVA suit helmet::  CSO: There’s nothing dangerous in the atmosphere
CMO Lt Tales says:
@VXO: I'll get our CO on the line, but first were exactly is your CO?
VXO Cmdr McGee says:
@CMO: I could have told you that... now I need to speak to your CO on a matter of the utmost importance.
CMO Lt Tales says:
@::taps his Comm. badge:: *CO*:  Cmdr.  the Venturer's first officer is requesting an audience with you Sir.
CMO Lt Tales says:
@::gets rather annoyed with the situation::  VXO: Did you hear me Cmdr.?  Where is your CO?
VXO Cmdr McGee says:
@CMO: He's busy.
CMO Lt Tales says:
@VXO:  Busy doing what exactly?  I am sure that our CO will want to meet with him..
CMO Lt Tales says:
@::taps his badge again::  *CO*: Commander...
CO Cmdr Westland says:
::taps his fingers on the armrest.:: *CMO*: Doc. Status. What did you find out there?
CSO Lt Malor says:
@::listens to the conversation::
VXO Cmdr McGee says:
@CMO: You don't need to know.
CSO Lt Malor says:
@::belches silently::

@ACTION: One of the engineers who hasn't noticed the CMO without his EVA helmet on farts in his suit.

CMO Lt Tales says:
@*CO*:  Sir, the crew here seems in good health.  They have power problems some systems such as communications are down.  There First Officer wants to speak to you, I have yet to meet their CO
CO Cmdr Westland says:
::frowns:: *CMO*: Why can't he deal with you? Ask for the CO and tell the XO that I will only talk with the CO if the matter is so important.
CSO Lt Malor says:
@::thinks this is a boring first away mission::
CMO Lt Tales says:
@*CO*:  Aye Sir, there definitely something fishy going on over here... I smell Intelligence in all this

@ACTION: A console near the CSO bites him through his EVA with a spark of electricity.

CSO Lt Malor says:
@::convulses and his nose goes even more wrinkly::
CMO Lt Tales says:
@VXO: Our CO, says that you will deal with me and if he speaks to anyone it will be your CO.... We're here under order from Starfleet to aid you so you will let us help.... Understood?
CSO Lt Malor says:
@VXO: What...happened...to...your...consoles...
VXO Cmdr McGee says:
@CMO: We are also here under orders from Starfleet and my CO is not to be disturbed, now are you going to start co-operating?
VXO Cmdr McGee says:
@CSO: They've been doing that for a while now.
CMO Lt Tales says:
@::looks to the security officers, nodding indicatively::
CSO Lt Malor says:
@AXO: And you...didn’t get....around....to fixing....them?
VXO Cmdr McGee says:
@CSO: The engineers have been busy enough with repairs without having to deal with sparking consoles.
CMO Lt Tales says:
@VXO:  As I see it Commander we are here answering your distress call under orders from Starfleet, we are in charge here so I think it is you that needs to co-operate with US!  ::walks right up to the VXO::
CSO Lt Malor says:
@::walks around the bridge::
VXO Cmdr McGee says:
@::gets right in the CMO's face:: CMO: first, you are not responding to our distress call, you are following orders from Admiral Crenshaw... Second, while you are on our ship you will adhere to our chain of command... is that understood Lieutenant?
CSO Lt Malor says:
@::sits at Science console 1 and starts accessing sensor records::
CSO Lt Malor says:
@::looks around::

@ACTION: The science console denies the CSO access and spits sparks at him.

CSO Lt Malor says:
@::spits back at the console but stops himself remembering he has a helmet on::
CMO Lt Tales says:
@::moves right into McGee's personal space:: VXO: We have been told that you were in distress adrift in space.... And how would you know who contacted us if you have no communications?
CSO Lt Malor says:
@::tries again::
CMO Lt Tales says:
@VXO: If you don't want to co-operate COMMANDER, we can leave if you want us to.... I answer to my CO and him alone
CSO Lt Malor says:
@::uses the transponder codes from earlier to gain access to the main computer and start transferring data back to the Ganymede::
VXO Cmdr McGee says:
@::calmly:: CMO: Because Admiral Crenshaw is following protocol, we report to Starfleet every 2 hours, Crenshaw knows that if we miss a single report he first sends a scout to find us and then a rescue ship to come get us.
CMO Lt Tales says:
@::calms a little:: VXO:  Well that makes sense, but my CO wants to speak to your CO.... And you have no command over his actions so I think you should go get your CO
CSO Lt Malor says:
@::carries on transferring data getting to the deck 6 information::

@ACTION: The science console starts to beep loudly, the beeping getting gradually quicker.

CSO Lt Malor says:
@::closes the console, pleased with the amount of info he got::
CMO Lt Tales says:
@::turns a looks towards the science console::
CMO Lt Tales says:
@::the security team has now spread itself at strategic intervals around the bridge::
CSO Lt Malor says:
@::steps away from the console calmly and nods to the CMO::
CMO Lt Tales says:
::taps his Comm. Badge:: *CO*:  Seems the Venturer’s XO here doesn't want to co-operate, he refuses to get there CO, I don't know what happening here but I'm not happy....
VXO Cmdr McGee says:
@CSO: I trust you managed to gain access... ::nods to the security officer by the door:: and now I hope you will enjoy your stay in our brig.

@ACTION: A large security team bursts through the door and take the CSO custody.

CMO Lt Tales says:
@::nods to each of the security officers and then to the CSO::
CSO Lt Malor says:
@::punches at the guards:: CMO: Hey!
CMO Lt Tales says:
@::The Away Team Security Team take point from there strategic positions around the bridge::
CO Cmdr Westland says:
::Thinks on what to do.:: *CMO*: Alright... try to... ::hears something over the COM in the background.:: What is going on down there?
CSO Lt Malor says:
@CMO: How about an emergency beam out?!

@ACTION: More officers with weapons flood onto the bridge and cover each member of the away team.

VXO Cmdr McGee says:
@::walks around retrieving Com badges from the Away team::
CO Cmdr Westland says:
*CMO*: Lieutenant! ANSWER ME! ::Looks at the duty CTO and indicates him to assemble an assault team.::
CMO Lt Tales says:
@:: with his Comm. still open::  *CO*: Sir, we've been taken prisoner....
CMO Lt Tales says:
*CO*: Request assistance.....
VXO Cmdr McGee says:
@All: Gentlemen, due to your actions I am authorised by Starfleet Intelligence to detain you in our brig, I'm sorry but this is your own doing.
CO Cmdr Westland says:
::Nods at the CTO again.:: CTO: Officer, raise shields, put us at yellow alert!
CSO Lt Malor says:
@VXO: So SFI doesn’t deny its presence here?
CTO Hammer says:
::Nods:: CO: Aye sir. ::starts pushing some buttons.::
CMO Lt Tales says:
@::as the VXO takes his Comm. badge::  VXO: You ba***rd....  ::gives him an Andorian Kiss::
VXO Cmdr McGee says:
@::staggers back a step and looks to the CMO:: CMO/CSO: You'll do well to remember the situation you find yourselves in. ::turns to a subordinate and shouts:: EO: Power it up!!
CSO Lt Malor says:
@::gulps::

@ACTION: The ship suddenly comes to life, every console now powered and working fine.

CMO_Lt_Tales2 says:
@::looks around the bridge shocked::

ACTION: From the Ganymede... the USS Venturer can be seen clearly one moment and then it is obscured by a large "Shell" that has appeared around it.
