Host Leader says:
In honor of a dear friend to many of us, I ask for a few moments of silence to honor one who has gone to the stars before us - Don Johnson.

CSO_Raal says:
::Bows head::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Nods and bows his head::

PEN_CEO_Smith says:
::Bows head in a moment of silence::

Host Leader says:
Thank you.  Osiyo Don.

Host Leader says:
Slowly she wonders around, looking, calling and crying.  People turn to look at her, they want to help her but they are not her family.  Her mother told her never to talk to strangers and there are people here who are even stranger then most, though they seem very nice.

Host Leader says:
Tripping over a piece of wire, she stumbles and cries.  One of the smooth headed people who were blue picks her up.  With soft words, her tears are dried.  The doctor takes her over to others who try to help her, but she is afraid.  What if her mother gets angry with her?

Host Leader says:
She needs to find her family but the blanket is so warm and she is so cold and tired and hungry.

*MO* Ryan to Van Den Broek, are you on your way, Ensign?

OPS_Owens says:
::Turns from his console looking for the CO::

Host CO_Vakol says:
::Steps through the doors to Sickbay and glances about at the medical teams preparing to head to the surface::

Brayon says:
@::Stands and smoothes his hair, tugs at vest and goes toward CNS::

FCO_Baptiste says:
::Enters the transporter room, re-equipped and carrying a new tricorder::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Nods to Baptiste as he enters the transporter room::  FCO: Just waiting on the MO.

MO_van_den_Broek says:
*CTO* Um...um, yes, Sir.  I'm just....um.....I'm on my way.  ::Racing through Sickbay, trying to find her hypospray, throwing medical instruments in the air out of every drawer:

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Standing on the Bridge::

OPS_Owens says:
::Notices the XO and approaches him::

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Moves a little, very slowly returning to the edges of consciousness::

PEN_CEO_Smith says:
@::Checks the power output levels::

CTO_Ryan says:
*MO* Acknowledged, Ensign.  Please hurry.  We are waiting in the transporter room.

Brayon says:
@::Stands 3 meters from the CNS watches her slowly wake up::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Walks a bit forward and catches the OPS officer heading for him:: OPS: Yes, Mr. Owens?

MO_van_den_Broek says:
::Finally finds it, clutches it tightly and runs out of Sickbay::

FCO_Baptiste says:
::Nods to the CTO:: CTO: I brought a freshly charged tricorder with the Counselor's signature loaded on it and a phaser or two.

Host CO_Vakol says:
::Sees the medical officer run out of Sickbay and raises an eyebrow::

OPS_Owens says:
XO: Sir, I respectfully ask that I join the Away Team to the surface, Sir.

CSO_Raal says:
CO/XO: I can't pick up Richardson at all, neither through sensors nor can I pick up her mentally.

CTO_Ryan says:
FCO: Good.  We'll need it.  ::Grabs a phaser rifle from the weapons locker, a tricorder and phaser in her belt the slings her tactical bag over her shoulder and steps up the transporter pad::

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Turns head slightly, from side to side, trying to struggle through the fog in her mind::

FCO_Baptiste says:
::Grabs a phaser rifle out of the locker as well::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
OPS: Granted, Lieutenant.  CSO: What do you mean you can't pick her up?  She has to be down there.

FCO_Baptiste says:
::Steps onto the transporter pad::

MO_van_den_Broek says:
::Races down the corridor, checks her bag and flies into a passing crewman:: Oof!  ::Hurtles into the transporter room::

PEN_CEO_Smith says:
@::Notes the most needed areas and assigns engineering teams their area::

Brayon says:
@::Puffs chest and sucks in gut to present himself well::

OPS_Owens says:
::Nods at the XO and moves off toward the turbolift before he changes his mind::

Host Leader says:
@::Storms into the room, tired and frustrated::

CSO_Raal says:
XO: I know she has to be there, Sir.  I just can't read her.

Host CO_Vakol says:
::Sees the CMO is not present and wonders why she's not doing as ordered.  Leaves Sickbay::

Host Leader says:
@::Glances at Brayon then down at the federation officer::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CSO: Possible explanations for this?

CTO_Ryan says:
::Watches as the MO enters the transporter room abruptly and frowns:: MO: Let's go, Ensign!

Brayon says:
@CNS: I suggest you move slowly.  How do you feel?

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Struggles a little harder to wake up, opening her eyes, blinking::

MO_van_den_Broek says:
::Lands unceremoniously on the floor::  CTO: Umm....yes, Sir!  ::Picks herself up::

FCO_Baptiste says:
CTO: I take it we are to be transported to the last known position?

CSO_Raal says:
XO: Either the satellite system can even block out her mental signature from me or she's……

Host Leader says:
@CNS: Yes, Federation officer, please do wake up.

OPS_Owens says:
::Arrives at the transporter room where the rest of the Away Team are gathered::  Transporter Room Chief: Wait!  ::Holding up a hand::

CTO_Ryan says:
FCO: Affirmative.  ::Taps COM badge::  *CO* Ryan to the Bridge.  We are ready for transport, Sir.

FCO_Baptiste says:
::Offers the MO a hand up onto the pad::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Shakes his head:: CSO: Don't even think it, Lieutenant.  She's down there.  We didn't survive the greatest cataclysm on this planet to have this happen.

Host CO_Vakol says:
::Heads down the corridor towards the nearest turbolift mentally listing the members of his crew who need a serious talking to::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Looks at OPS:: OPS: Joining the team, Lieutenant?

CSO_Raal says:
XO: Aye, Sir.

MO_van_den_Broek says:
FCO: Thank you, Sir.  ::Steps up onto the transporter pad::

OPS_Owens says:
CTO: Commander Amendoeira has granted me passage to the surface with your team.

PEN_CEO_Smith says:
@::Begins working on the main power generator::

Brayon says:
@::Glances at the Leader wishing for a calmer voice::

Host Damion_Gloorg says:
%::Gives his officers new orders as he struts the Bridge of his ship::

CTO_Ryan says:
OPS: Very well.  Take your place.  We are ready to beam down.

OPS_Owens says:
::Steps up onto the empty pad::

FCO_Baptiste says:
OPS: Might grab a phaser, in case

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Hears the voice, faintly, through the humming drum sounds within her head; closes her eyes for a moment, then reopens them, trying to focus::

Brayon says:
@Self: This one is a beauty.

CTO_Ryan says:
*XO* Ryan to Bridge.  We are ready for transport, Sir.  ::Wonders what is taking so long to get clearance for transport::

OPS_Owens says:
::Nods at the FCO and moves toward a supply case to grab a phaser to match his tricorder and moves back to the pad::

Host Leader says:
@::Growls::  Brayon:  Wake her.  We are running out of time.

Host CO_Vakol says:
Turbolift: Bridge.  ::Cradles his hands behind his back and waits patiently::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
@*CO* Sir, we can't seem to locate the Counselor.  Our scans have turned up negative and mental scanning has turned negative as well.

Brayon says:
@::Eyes glaze over as he continues to stare at CNS::

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Blinks a couple of times, squinting at the figures near her::

CSO_Raal says:
XO: Sir, where was she last that you know of?

OPS_Owens says:
::Looks back at the CTO::  CTO: Ready.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
@*CO* Let's hope the Away Team has more luck.

Brayon says:
@Leader: Yes.  ::Bends over and gently shakes the CNS::

CTO_Ryan says:
OPS: Affirmative.  Just waiting for the go ahead from the Bridge.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CSO: At the Hospital.  She was helping with the wounded.

Host Leader says:
@::Snaps fingers at Brayon::  Brayon: Get a hold of yourself!  I will be back in five minutes!  ::Walks out in disgust::

Host CO_Vakol says:
*XO* Broaden your search pattern then, Commander.  Could she have been removed from the planet without our knowledge?

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Tries to pull herself into a sitting position, tries to push the hand away:: Brayon: Where am I?

OPS_Owens says:
::Fidgets slightly anxiously::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
*CTO* Permission granted. Carry on and find our missing officer, will you?

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Shakes head, trying to clear the cobwebs away::

Brayon says:
@:: Is joyous that he will be alone with her:: CNS: You are safe for now.  Just rest.

CSO_Raal says:
::Focuses the search in the vicinity of the hospital::

CTO_Ryan says:
*XO* Aye, Sir.  ::Nods to the Transporter Chief::  Chief: Energize!

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
*CO* Doubtful. The Paula Greene has not picked up any other ships near the planet, other than Federation ships.

OPS_Owens says:
::Turns to the FCO::  FCO: Are we beaming to the location of the CNS’s disappearance?

FCO_Baptiste says:
OPS: Yes, we are.

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Frowns, as things start to clear up in her head a little, trying to think:: Brayon: Who are you?

Brayon says:
@::Looks around, sees a blanket, retrieves it and hands to the CNS::

FCO_Baptiste says:
#::Materializes on the planet::

CTO_Ryan says:
#::Dematerializes and rematerializes on the planet and looks around::  FCO: Begin scans.

PEN_CEO_Smith says:
@SELF: This is going to take a while.

MO_van_den_Broek says:
#::Materializes on the planet::

Host CO_Vakol says:
::Steps out of the turbolift and onto the bridge:: XO: Commander, is their any facilities on the planet capable of blocking our methods of locating the Counselor?

Brayon says:
@CNS: I...I .... I am called Brayon.

FCO_Baptiste says:
#::Starts fanning about with the tricorder::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CSO: Keep your locks on the Away Team, Lieutenant, I don't want them disappearing the same way the Counselor did.

OPS_Owens says:
#::Materializes on the planet and for the first time notices the MO and nods at her::

MO_van_den_Broek says:
#::Starts to scan for Richardson's signature::

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Takes the blanket, staring at it for a moment, as though trying to figure out what it is:: Brayon:  Where am I and why?

Host Damion_Gloorg says:
%::Reads the incoming reports, barely able to hold his glee::  Craig:  Keep up the work.  Continue helping the Federation ships but pull more of our people back for our work.  Complain fatigue that should get their sympathy for us.

CSO_Raal says:
XO: Aye, Sir.  I'll have them locked like a safe.

CTO_Ryan says:
#FCO: Anything on scans?

OPS_Owens says:
#::Opens his tricorder as well and scans the area he knew the Counselor was last standing::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Turns back to look at the CO:: CO: Not that know of, Sir.  Telepathic communications is hard to block by.  Technological means.

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Puts the blanket absently beside her, still trying to think straight::

FCO_Baptiste says:
#::Frowns as he wills  it to give a positive sign::

Brayon says:
@::Steps back and continues to stare at the beauty before him::

OPS_Owens says:
#Away Team: Last I knew, it was this area that the voice was talking to the Counselor from.  ::Points::

FCO_Baptiste says:
#CTO: Nothing yet.  ::Sadly::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CO: And the natives have shown no telepathic abilities.

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Tries to stand up::

Host CO_Vakol says:
CO: Yes, but a building could be shielded from our sensors.  ::Glances at the OPS console::  It should be fairly easy to determine what buildings are blocked, if any.

CTO_Ryan says:
#OPS: Well, it seems like a good place to start.  All: Let's go.  ::Heads off to where OPS was pointing::

Brayon says:
@CNS: You are in our hideaway.  The Leader wanted you here.

CSO_Raal says:
XO/CO: Sirs, I just had a brainstorm.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CO: Aye, Sir.  CSO: Yes, Lieutenant?

FCO_Baptiste says:
#CTO: She could be in a null zone though and then we would have to be on top of her to read her.  I suggest we move in a spiral outwards.

Host CO_Vakol says:
::Looks up at Raal::

Brayon says:
@::Steps forward, bends over and wraps blanket around the CNS::

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Frowns again:: Brayon: What Leader and where am I?  I don't understand.

PEN_CEO_Smith says:
@*CTO* Sir, this generator has fried wires everywhere.  It will take time to repair.

OPS_Owens says:
#::Follows along and scans the walls and the area the computer once stood::

MO_van_den_Broek says:
#::Follows the rest of the team::

CTO_Ryan says:
#FCO: Agreed.

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Allows the blanket to be place around her shoulders, one hand holding it:: Brayon: I don't understand.

CSO_Raal says:
CO/XO: Maybe the reason I can't reach her telepathically or mentally is that she may be in an area that naturally inhibits telepathy.  I'll check the library for any substances that do that. ::Goes to the computer::

FCO_Baptiste says:
#::Moves left and begins a new sweep::

OPS_Owens says:
#::Begins scanning as the FCO suggested::

Brayon says:
@CNS: We are the Order of Allasios and I assure you I will let no harm come to you.

CTO_Ryan says:
#All: Stay within visual distance from each other.  We don't want to end up looking for each other too.

OPS_Owens says:
#::Stops and reconfigures his tricorder for Trill lifesigns specifically::

MO_van_den_Broek says:
#::Nods to Ryan and continues her scan::

CNS_Richardson says:
@Brayon: Order of Allasios.  ::Her mind tries to assimilate that information:: What is this Order you speak of?

Brayon says:
@::Hand brushes the CNS hair as he withdraws it and steps back::

Host CO_Vakol says:
CSO: That would explain the inability to detect her telepathically, but not the ability to detect her technologically.

FCO_Baptiste says:
#CTO: Open COM as well?

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Shakes head again, slightly, still feeling fuzzy::

Host CO_Vakol says:
XO: Are there any locations on the planet that we are not able to scan with our sensors?

CTO_Ryan says:
#FCO: Well, our COM badges should be working okay, but if we keep within visual distance of each other we won't need to use the COM.

CSO_Raal says:
::Hears the sensor alert::  CO: Something just happened.  Sensors picked up unusual transporter activity in a section of the city where such activity shouldn't be.

Host Leader says:
@::Storms back in::  CNS:  It is our order.  One ordained by God and you don't belong here.  ::Points a convicting finger at her::  Or your people.

OPS_Owens says:
#::Wanders into a nearby room scanning and looking around it::

PEN_CEO_Smith says:
<Pen CTO>*CEO* Understood. Get that generator up and running as fast as possible.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CO: Checking the database now, Sir.  ::Browses through his database on the planet below::

Brayon says:
@::Steps beside the CNS, projecting a feeling of protection::

FCO_Baptiste says:
#::Stands by the door as the OPS checks it out::

CTO_Ryan says:
#::Looks around for OPS:: OPS: Owens!  Where are you?

PEN_CEO_Smith says:
@*Pen CTO* Aye, Sir.. ::Begins working on the generator::

CSO_Raal says:
CO: A couple of those places are deep underground.  I think that's why we can't pick her up!  She's subterranean!

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Startled at the Leader's entrance and his tone:: Leader: I cannot argue with you.  I didn't ask to be brought here.  ::Gestures slightly around her:: I will gladly leave, if you will show me the way out.

OPS_Owens says:
#::Calls out::  CTO: An adjacent room over here by Mr. Baptiste.

FCO_Baptiste says:
#CTO: He went in there.  ::Nods in the doorway::

CSO_Raal says:
::Checks for the coordinates of the unusual transporter activity::

CTO_Ryan says:
#FCO: Acknowledged.  Don't let him out of your sight.

Brayon says:
@Leader: She can be taught, I will teach her.

OPS_Owens says:
#::Satisfied about his scan of the room and exists.  Nodding as he passes the FCO::

Host Leader says:
@::Waves hands::  CNS: Not here.  ::Gives her look as if dealing with one with few brains::  On MY planet.

CTO_Ryan says:
#All: Anyone picking up anything on the scans?  ::Thinks about the subway tunnels::

Brayon says:
@::Looks with adoration at the CNS::

PEN_CEO_Smith says:
@*Repair Team 1* Report.

FCO_Baptiste says:
#::Shakes his head in the negative::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CSO: Lieutenant, inform the Away Team.

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Slightly puzzled, still trying to clear the drum sounds out of her head:: Leader: Your planet?  We were invited here.

CTO_Ryan says:
#FCO: She must be underground.  Something is blocking our scans.  What about the subway tunnels?

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CO: Captain, we could try to configure a probe to navigate the sub- terrains and beam it in?

OPS_Owens says:
#::Stops in thought for a moment::  FCO: You know, for a Military Tech Building there isn't much in the way of a "Military" about.  CTO: Negative over here.

CSO_Raal says:
XO: Aye, Sri.  COM: CTO: Raal to Ryan.  We're picking up some unusual transporter activity emanating from a mile under the surface.

FCO_Baptiste says:
#CTO: Perhaps, where is the subway from here?

Host Leader says:
@::Paces in front of her::  CNS:  By fools.  Fools of a government who know nothing.  They are incompetent and fearful of their own shadows.

Brayon says:
@::Kneels beside the CNS and wraps an arm around her shoulders:: Leader: I can instruct her, she will be a good addition to the Order.

PEN_CEO_Smith says:
@<Repair Team 1> *Pen CEO* We are repairing the last bit now, Sir but power is still a little sluggish.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CSO: Can you beam the Away Team to these sub-terrains?

PEN_CEO_Smith says:
@*Repair Team 1* Understood.

OPS_Owens says:
#::Scans an area and points::  CTO: I think there is a way down over here.

CSO_Raal says:
XO: I don't have the exact coordinates.

CTO_Ryan says:
#COM: PG: CSO: Where underground, Lieutenant?  We have not found anything here at the Tech End Building.  We were contemplating checking the subway tunnels.

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Nods:: Leader: I have known many such and have my own opinions of government leaders.  But I do not understand what this means to me or why I am here, in this place.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Nods at the CSO:: CSO: Then I guess my idea about the probe is out of question?

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Looks slightly askance at Brayon's attentions, but hides her reaction::

CTO_Ryan says:
#FCO: Stand by, I am trying to get a location from the CSO.

Host Leader says:
@CNS: Why exactly are you here.  What is it that you know?  ::Looks at her suspiciously::

CSO_Raal says:
XO: No, it's not out of the question, the probe could search for it.

Host CO_Vakol says:
CSO: Give them what you have and keep working on it.  XO: I'll be in my Ready Room, Commander.

FCO_Baptiste says:
#::Nods to the CTO::

CSO_Raal says:
COM: CTO: Stand by.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CSO: Well, you need to have exact coordinates to beam it in before it starts searching, right?  ::Smiles::

Brayon says:
@::Sees the CNS's look and believes it is one of love::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Nods at the CO:: CO: Aye, Sir.

CNS_Richardson says:
@Leader: You are confusing me.  I am here because you brought me and I don't know anything.

Host CO_Vakol says:
::Enters his Ready Room off the Bridge and goes to the replicator ordering a Vulcan spiced tea::

PEN_CEO_Smith says:
@::Replaces a power coupling and notices a gel pack::

Brayon says:
@CNS: You are here because the One provided you for me.

CSO_Raal says:
COM: CTO: Sarina, I partially triangulated the location of the activity.  It's near an ore processing plant in the northern part of the city.

Host Leader says:
@CNS: You were brought here  ::Points to the chair:: by us for questioning.  You came to my world ::Points up:: on your own.  ::Steps forward ready to strike sense into here, but refrains himself::

PEN_CEO_Smith says:
@SELF: Bio neural circuitry, amazing.

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Looks at Brayon with some apprehension:: Brayon: Ummm, okay.

CSO_Raal says:
XO: Sir, we can probably beam the probe to that area.

CTO_Ryan says:
#COM: PG: CSO: Acknowledged.

OPS_Owens says:
#::Since no one else is willing, begins to wander to the area he scanned as a possible way down::

CNS_Richardson says:
@Leader: Ah, I see your confusion, you got the wrong target, I'm sorry.

CTO_Ryan says:
#::Grabs her tricorder bringing up the map of the city::  All: Let's move out!

CSO_Raal says:
COM: CTO: We'll probably beam a probe in that area, subterranean, of course.

Brayon says:
@::Moves to block the strike::

FCO_Baptiste says:
#CTO: Perhaps if they beamed us to a locale of it they knew its location of?

PEN_CEO_Smith says:
@::Checks gel packs::

Host Leader says:
@CNS:  Wrong target?

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Walks to the center chair, and sits down, thinking::

CNS_Richardson says:
@Leader: You see, it's like this... I'm just this low-level worker bee; they don't tell me anything.

OPS_Owens says:
#::Hears the CTO and heads back::

CTO_Ryan says:
#FCO: Good idea.  COM: PG: CSO: Can you transport my team to that location, Lieutenant?

FCO_Baptiste says:
#CTO: Or even close.

CSO_Raal says:
XO: Should I go ahead with that probe, Sir?

Host Leader says:
@::Glances at Brayon::  Brayon:  Have you forgotten yourself and your position in the order?  If you are having problems, I will bring in another.

CSO_Raal says:
COM: CTO: One moment.

CNS_Richardson says:
@Leader: So if it is information you want, I'm sorry, I have none to provide. You'd have been better served to kidnap one of the leaders in our group, not me.

Host CO_Vakol says:
::Walks over to his desk sipping at his tea and sits, working on a PADD on his desk::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CSO: Can you beam it in?  If so, do it.  It will need configuring first.

Host Leader says:
@::Looks at the counselor::  CNS: You are the great Federation. ::Disgust::

PEN_CEO_Smith says:
@::Checks readings:: Self: Gel packs seem to be in order.

OPS_Owens says:
#::Stands next to the MO::

Brayon says:
@Leader: No I haven't forgotten but you could consider my suggestion.

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Shrugs, trying to look inept:: Leader: I can't help it, I don't know anything to tell you.

CSO_Raal says:
XO: It's configured.  I'm attempting the beam down now.  Ryan also asked to be transported to the refinery as well.

OPS_Owens says:
#::Looks at her to see how she is taking things::

Brayon says:
@Leader: She can learn... be one with us.

Host Damion_Gloorg says:
%Craig:  Hurry it up, hurry it up but not so many beam downs in that area though, they will get suspicious.

FCO_Baptiste says:
#::Stands next to the CTO::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CSO: All right, make it so.

CTO_Ryan says:
#All: Prepare for a site-to-site transport.  ::Looks at the Away Team::

CSO_Raal says:
::Prepares the probe and beams it down, one mile underground near the coordinates of the transporter signals::  COM: Away Team: Prepare for site-to-site transport.

PEN_CEO_Smith says:
@::Repairs the damaged wiring...and rescans the generator::

FCO_Baptiste says:
#CTO: If they have hurt the CNS….

Brayon says:
@::Stands and moves between CNS and the Leader::

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Is starting to get a little worried about Brayon, but maintains her wide-eyed in genuine routine::

Host Leader says:
@::A frightening calm covers his face::  CNS: Perhaps it will not matter in the end.  You realize we have the main satellite computer?

CTO_Ryan says:
#FCO: Don't worry, Lieutenant, we'll find her.

OPS_Owens says:
#MO: How are you Ms. Van Den Broek, a lot going on for a first assignment don't you think?  :Smiles::

Host Leader says:
@Brayon: You want an infidel into our holy order?  ::Expression does not change::

CSO_Raal says:
::After probe-beaming cycle completes, recycles transporter for the Away Team and resets lock::

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Nods, as though that explained everything:: Leader: Ahh, good, I'm glad its safe in your hands, we were worried when it went missing.

PEN_CEO_Smith says:
@Self: looks good, lets see.

CTO_Ryan says:
#COM: PG: CSO: We're ready for site-to-site transport.  ::Taps foot::

CSO_Raal says:
COM: Away Team: I'm gong to beam you to just outside the ore refinery.  Await instructions there.

MO_van_den_Broek says:
#OPS: With all due respect, Sir, that's quite an understatement.

Host CO_Vakol says:
::Looks over the crew’s personnel files wondering how he ever ended up with this group::

FCO_Baptiste says:
#::Wishes he had a yo-yo::

Brayon says:
@Leader: I'm sure she can be taught.  :: Looks moon-eyed at the CNS::

CTO_Ryan says:
#COM: PG: CSO: Acknowledged.

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Backs away from Brayon and the Leader a little bit::

CSO_Raal says:
::Beams Away Team to the ore refinery::

OPS_Owens says:
#::Smiles back at her comment::  MO: Your handling it far better than my first assignment on a Communications Relay Station.

FCO_Baptiste says:
#::Thinks: It’s about time::

CTO_Ryan says:
#::Materializes outside the ore refinery and looks around::

OPS_Owens says:
#::Feels that familiar 'tickle' of energy again::

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Isn't sure she wants to be taught anything by Brayon but doesn't make a comment on that::

CTO_Ryan says:
#COM: PG: CSO: We have arrived at the ore refinery, Lieutenant, what now?

FCO_Baptiste says:
#::Takes scan readings :: CTO: There is an entrance over there.

OPS_Owens says:
#::Immediately begins scanning for the CNS again::

CTO_Ryan says:
#FCO: Acknowledged, anything on scans?

CSO_Raal says:
COM: CTO: See if you can find a transporter there.

FCO_Baptiste says:
#CTO: From what I read it has some sort of shaft that leads downwards inside of it.

MO_van_den_Broek says:
#OPS: Thank you, Sir.

CTO_Ryan says:
#FCO: Acknowledged, let's check that out.

CTO_Ryan says:
#COM: PG: CSO: Acknowledged.  ::Grabs tricorder and scans for transporter signatures::  All: Let's head over to that entrance.  ::Walks off::

PEN_CEO_Smith says:
@SELF: All right, now.  *Repair Teams* Report.

OPS_Owens says:
#::Trying to scan an area in the opposite direction just to be sure::

CSO_Raal says:
::Wonders why he transported that probe at all::

CTO_Ryan says:
#All: Stay together.

Brayon says:
@::Shifts from foot to foot in deep thought::

Host CO_Vakol says:
::Sends Starfleet Command a progress report::

MO_van_den_Broek says:
#::Continues her scans::

Host Leader says:
@::Steps close to the federation officer::  CNS:  If our God cannot have this city then the blasphemers will not either.

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Takes a moment, while the Leader and Brayon are facing off to get her bearings and looks around::

FCO_Baptiste says:
#::Enters the doorway::

PEN_CEO_Smith says:
@<Team 1> *CEO* Team one here, Sir, we are finished here and power is returning to normal.

OPS_Owens says:
#::Still scanning the opposite direction as he follows the team a short way in reverse::

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Steps back a step:: Leader: That's fine by me, no argument here. ::Smiles::

CTO_Ryan says:
#::Reaches the entrance to the refinery and opens the door to peer inside::

Brayon says:
@::Tries to catch the CNS' eye to calm her down::

CSO_Raal says:
::Tries to keep a solid lock on the Away Team::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Takes the time to look at the reports from what happened while they where down on the planet, and find out why they had not been helped sooner::

FCO_Baptiste says:
#::Stops the others with a raised hand  and then points forwards to a couple of guards that are not paying very good attention::

CTO_Ryan says:
#::Enters through the doorway, phaser rife pointed in front of her::

Brayon says:
@::Mouths "Wait"::

Host Leader says:
@CNS:  And as a small peace offering to our god, your federation ships can join the ranks of those in the city.  ::A smile lightens his face::

PEN_CEO_Smith says:
@<Team 2> *CEO* Team two here, we are almost done here, Sir.

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Sees Brayon trying to catch her eye, and tries to ignore it::

CTO_Ryan says:
#All: Quickly, people, follow me.

OPS_Owens says:
#::Trains the phaser in the guard’s direction as he stops::

CTO_Ryan says:
#OPS: Close the door behind you, quietly::

Brayon says:
@::Shivers at the mention of the fate of the city::

FCO_Baptiste says:
#::Stuns the guards with two quick pulses ::

MO_van_den_Broek says:
#::Follows Ryan::

CNS_Richardson says:
@::In a conciliatory tone of voice:: Leader: That hardly seems like a wise thing to do, now; sort of like cutting off your nose to spite your face, don't you think?

PEN_CEO_Smith says:
@<Team 3> *CEO* Team three here, repairs are taking a little longer than expected Sir.  We could use some assistance.

OPS_Owens says:
#::Nods and carefully shuts the door with all gentleness::

CTO_Ryan says:
#::Activates wrist beacon on low beam and continues into the refinery building::

FCO_Baptiste says:
#CTO: There is two taken care of.

Host Leader says:
@CNS: Our God will be happy, that is what counts.

PEN_CEO_Smith says:
@*Repair Teams* Understood. Team 1 report to Team 3's area and assist them.

CTO_Ryan says:
#FCO: Good, quietly now.  ::Steps gingerly making her way to the shaft::

CNS_Richardson says:
@Leader: I mean, it's like this, crashing the Federation ships would destroy more of your cities.  Your God would be the happy God of ruins then?

Brayon says:
@::Nods at the CNS' comment behind the Leader's back::

CSO_Raal says:
COM: Away Team: Raal to away team.  Don't go underground from the ore facility.  Find the transporter on the surface!

OPS_Owens says:
#::Hears his stomach "gurgle" and wishes he had eaten before coming along::

PEN_CEO_Smith says:
@<Team 1> *CEO* Aye, Sir.

Host Leader says:
@::Doesn’t hear the Counselor’s further statement, his mind elsewhere::  CNS:  And it is so easy, so very easy.  ::Smiles::  But I have work to do and if you are nothing among your own people  ::Waves a hand at Brayon::  we don't need you any further.

CNS_Richardson says:
@Leader: Surely your God would be better pleased if his cities were not destroyed, his people not killed.

FCO_Baptiste says:
#COM: CSO: We are in the refinery building on the surface.

CTO_Ryan says:
#COM: PG: CSO: Our assignment was to locate the CNS.  Now you want us to look for a transporter device?

Host Leader says:
@::Turns to leave the room, mumbling::  So much to do and so little time to do it in.

Brayon says:
@::Realizes he can't let harm come to this wonderful creature:: Leader: I will stay and guard her.

CSO_Raal says:
COM: CTO: Try to see if the transporter has coordinates to a subterranean location.

CTO_Ryan says:
#::Stops and holds her hand up to the others to stop::

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Watches the leader leave, her mind turning::

FCO_Baptiste says:
#::Stops ::

Brayon says:
@::Watches the Leader leave and pauses a moment::

FCO_Baptiste says:
#::Continues scanning ::

MO_van_den_Broek says:
#::Stops::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Turns back to the CSO, listening in on the conversation::

Brayon says:
@CNS: I can't let you come to harm, follow me.

OPS_Owens says:
#::Realizes all this stopping is the very reason he never went out for the Tactical Department::

CTO_Ryan says:
#COM: PG: CSO: Acknowledged.  ::Sighs::  All: I will scan for the transporter device.  Continue scans for the Counselor.  ::Begins moving forward again::

PEN_CEO_Smith says:
@*Pen CTO* Sir, primary power has been restored.  We are in the process of repairing secondary power generators.

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Turns to face Brayon still thinking:: Brayon: He's a bit... ummm... what's the word I'm looking for?  Imperial, that's it.

Brayon says:
@CNS: I know we've only just met but I know you are the one chosen for me.

CSO_Raal says:
XO: I just had another idea.  Maybe the transporter can lead to where the Counselor is.  Transporters normally have records of to where it beams people.

PEN_CEO_Smith says:
@<Pen CTO> *Pen CEO* Good work, Ensign, keep me apprised of your situation.

OPS_Owens says:
#::Tries to see why they have stopped again::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Nods::

Brayon says:
@CNS: This way.  ::Leads her to a side tunnel::

PEN_CEO_Smith says:
@*Pen CTO* Aye, Sir.

Host CO_Vakol says:
::Enjoys his tea waiting for an update from the away team::

FCO_Baptiste says:
#::Points at the signs of movements on his tricorder to the CTO::

OPS_Owens says:
#::Shrugs and carries on while scanning everything from ceiling to floor::

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Considers that Brayon appears to be her best ally at the moment and decides to play along:: Brayon: Surely your God can do better for you.  I'm really kind of a mess all around let me tell ya.

Brayon says:
@CNS: There are guards everywhere, shhh.

CTO_Ryan says:
#FCO: What is it?

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Nods:: Brayon: But I don't understand what my purpose here is other than your God bringing us together.

Brayon says:
@CNS: ::Grins:: No, you are merely a challenge, an opportunity.

FCO_Baptiste says:
#CTO: Hard to tell until we see them, but it may just be workers doing their jobs or not.

Brayon says:
@::Holds up hand to halt their progress:: CNS: Shhh.

CTO_Ryan says:
#FCO: Got it.  Keep an eye on them.  Scan for weapons.

FCO_Baptiste says:
#CTO: They seem to be making a trail though.

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Laughs a little:: Brayon: No, I'm no challenge to anyone.  Now, our Captain, he would be a challenge worthy of that leader or our executive officer, much more challenging than me.

Brayon says:
@::Nods toward the sound ahead, whispers:: CNS: Back, there is another way.

CTO_Ryan says:
#::Notices her tricorder signaling that it has found transporter signatures::  All: I am picking up transporter signatures up ahead.  Let's go.  ::Walks off further into the refinery.

FCO_Baptiste says:
#CTO: I suggest we go and see?

PEN_CEO_Smith says:
@COM: PG: CO: Sir, this is Ensign Smith from the Pendragon, the main power generator has been repaired and is online at this time.  Repair teams are now repairing the secondary power generators.

FCO_Baptiste says:
#::Walks off in the direction of the trail that he has discovered::

Host Leader says:
ACTION:  Near the transport site at the ore processing plant are a bunch of Ferengis arguing about Latinum and amounts possible.  Their voices raise and lower in their zeal.

Host CO_Vakol says:
COM: PEN CEO Smith: Understood, Ensign.

Brayon says:
@::Looks over shoulder and whispers:: CNS: I don't want another for a challenge, you were sent.  ::Walks back the way they came::

MO_van_den_Broek says:
#::Follows Ryan::

CNS_Richardson says:
@::In a whisper:: Brayon: A way to what?

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Gets up from the chair:: CSO: Lieutenant, keep an eye out for the Away Team, I need to talk with the Captain.

CTO_Ryan says:
#::Hears voices up ahead and turns to the others:: All: Quiet now.  I hear voices up ahead.

FCO_Baptiste says:
#::Points out the Ferengi to the front and right arguing::

CSO_Raal says:
XO: Aye, Sir.

Brayon says:
@::Gestures to the left and motions for the CNS to follow::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Walks off to the Ready Room and chimes::

CTO_Ryan says:
#::Watches the Ferengi, staying hidden::

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Considers a moment and starts to whisper then follows Brayon, glancing back at the door through which the Leader left::

OPS_Owens says:
#::Keeps his phaser ready::

FCO_Baptiste says:
#::Signaling the idea to phaser both groups simultaneously::

PEN_CEO_Smith says:
@::Checks power levels::

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Tries to stay very quiet::

Host Damion_Gloorg says:
%::Beams down to join the team::

CTO_Ryan says:
#COM: PG: CSO: We have found the source of the transporter signatures.  Ferengi refinery workers are beaming out ore from the processing plant.

Brayon says:
@::Keeps taking the tunnels away from the sounds of the guards::

CSO_Raal says:
COM: CTO: Ferengi?

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Chimes again::

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Follows along, hoping that Brayon is as harmless as she thinks he is::

Host Damion_Gloorg says:
%::Yells out::  All: Hurry up!  We need to get a move on before the Federation becomes suspicious.

PEN_CEO_Smith says:
@SELF: Much better.

Brayon says:
@::Whispers:: CNS: Have you never been guided by fate?

CTO_Ryan says:
#COM: PG: CSO: Is my signal breaking up?  Yes, I said Ferengi!  ::Wonders about the CSO sometimes::

FCO_Baptiste says:
#CTO: ::Whispers:: That looks like the Head Cheese.  ::Points to the Daimon::

OPS_Owens says:
#::Scans in the direction of one of the containers to determine its contents::

CSO_Raal says:
*CO/XO* Sirs, the away team have found Ferengi workers beaming ore off the planet.

Host CO_Vakol says:
::Hears the chime:: XO: Come.

CTO_Ryan says:
#FCO: Yes.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Walks in as the door opens::

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Grins:: Brayon: Fate is but the hand dealt to you. The real game is in how you play that hand.

CSO_Raal says:
COM: CTO: I heard you.  Just didn't believe it for a second.  Prepare for further orders.

Host Damion_Gloorg says:
#All:  I am gong to leave soon and I will deduct your share of the Latinum from what we did not get.  Now Move IT.

Host CO_Vakol says:
*CSO* To where, Mister Raal?

FCO_Baptiste says:
#CTO: On three, rapid fire?

CTO_Ryan says:
#FCO: Negative.  Hold on.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Frowns::

FCO_Baptiste says:
#::Prepares a second phaser::

CSO_Raal says:
*CO* Not sure, Sir.  I'm going to scan for Ferengi ships.  What should I have the Away Team do?

Host CO_Vakol says:
::Waves for the XO to have a seat::

Brayon says:
@::Stops to get his bearings; takes another tunnel to the left::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Steps up to the Ready Room chair and sits down::

Host Damion_Gloorg says:
%::Grabs some dropped ore and tosses it at an officer::  Fool, every little bit is worth more then your whole hide.

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Keeps following, staying about four paces behind Brayon, looking for an opportunity::

Brayon says:
@::The sound of the guards has faded::

Host CO_Vakol says:
*CSO* Has the away team found Counselor Richardson?

Brayon says:
@CNS: Shouldn't be long.  We’ll find a way to the top.

OPS_Owens says:
#::Scans behind them again making sure no one is approaching from the rear::

CSO_Raal says:
*CO* Not yet.  I thought the transporter could be a connection to her disappearance.  However, I'm thinking the Ferengi activity could be a connection to the ecological disaster on the planet.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Nods and waits for the CO to finish the COM::

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Nods:: Brayon: Excellent, I could use some fresh air.  Will we come out in the city?

Host Damion_Gloorg says:
%::Glares at the guards::

CTO_Ryan says:
#All: What the heck is going on up there?  ::Looks up::  We're supposed to be looking for the Counselor, and we find Ferengi?

Brayon says:
@::Takes a hard left in tunnel and comes to complete halt::

FCO_Baptiste says:
#::Prepares boot knives and other knives::

MO_van_den_Broek says:
#CTO: You think they're connected, Sir?

Host CO_Vakol says:
::Leans back in his chair:: *CSO* Finding the Counselor is the priority. Have them locate her first.  They can deal with the Ferengi later. ::Looks up::

CSO_Raal says:
*CO* Also, I have a Ferengi ship orbiting above the site.

OPS_Owens says:
#::Wonders where the FCO always gets all these nifty little gadgets from::

Host CO_Vakol says:
XO: What can I do for you, Commander?

Brayon says:
@::Turns to look at the CNS as he realizes they are back where they started::

OPS_Owens says:
#::Or more importantly where he hides it all::

CSO_Raal says:
*CO* Aye, Sir.  COM: Away Team: Leave them alone for now, continue the search for the Counselor.

Brayon says:
@CNS: I'm sorry.

CTO_Ryan says:
#MO: I don't know, but we're not making much progress here.

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Catches up and sees where they are, and sighs:: Brayon: We took a wrong turn, I think?

CTO_Ryan says:
#::Raises an eyebrow::  COM: PG: CSO: Now that you have led us far away from where we were searching?  Right!  ::Grumbles::  All: Let's go!

CNS_Richardson says:
@::Places her hand on Brayon's arm:: Brayon: It is all right; shall we try it again, maybe left instead of right?
