FCO_Baptiste says:
::Checking in with the guards at the Federation Science Commission building::

CSO_Raal says:
::Looking around the lobby of the Federation Science Commission building::

::Following the rest of the crew at the Federation Science Commission building::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: A month has passed since the Gothraic cataclysm.  The crew of the Paula Greene have returned to Earth for some well deserved down time, which has been slightly interrupted by the Federation Science Commission.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Standing in the lobby of Federation Science Commission building::

FCO_Baptiste says:
CSO: They said room 2212.

CSO_Raal says:
FCO: 2212?  I thought it was 2122.

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: Just beyond Earth orbit the Paula Greene is undergoing it's baryon sweep, while various starships are in the system having just completed a very special mission only days prior.

FCO_Baptiste says:
CSO: Dunno, that is what they have down.

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Arrives at the apartment of an acquaintance in San Francisco and makes himself at home, bedding down for the night::

Host Shinar says:
%::Sitting at a table in a garden area outside of Starfleet Headquarters, with three guards nearby, grateful to at least be out of the Brig::

CSO_Raal says:
FCO: Lemme see that.

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
::Walks into the designated room to await the arrival of the Paula Greene Crew::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Stops waiting for someone to lead the way to the meeting room::

CNS_Richardson says:
%::Arrives at the room, and reports to the security guards there, giving them her credentials, such as they are::

MO_van_den_Broek says:
#::Walking along the beach in Schaveningen, arm in arm with Marco::

FCO_Baptiste says:
::Hands the CTO the PADD::

Host Shinar says:
%<Guard One> ::Takes credentials, being from the Paula Greene himself, looks them over and nods at the Counselor:: CNS: Right over here, Ma'am.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Looks around:: All: Everyone's here?  Right, let's go.  ::Moves to one of the corridors::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Takes the PADD and looks at the display::

CSO_Raal says:
::Takes the PADD from Ryan::  FCO: Yup, it's 2212.  All: Let's get this over with.

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
::Greets the other reps from the commission that are already there::

FCO_Baptiste says:
::Heads to the turbolift::

Host Shinar says:
<Doctor Oxly> ::Walks in behind Admiral Cromwell, some aides who have PADDs following behind him::

CNS_Richardson says:
%::Nods, and follows along:: Guard: I trust Shinar has been behaving?

CTO_Ryan says:
::Glares at the CSO::  CSO: No need to get grabby, Lieutenant!

Host Shinar says:
%<Guard One> ::Shrug:: CNS: As much as expected.

FCO_Baptiste says:
::Enters turbolift and holds doors::

CSO_Raal says:
CTO: He was giving it to me, Sarina.

CTO_Ryan says:
::Enters turbolift::  CSO: Well, he handed it to me and I did not give you permission to address me by my first name!  You can call me Ryan or Lieutenant. Ryan.

MO_van_den_Broek says:
#<Marco> ::Looks down at Audrina:: MO: I wish this didn't have to end.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Enters turbolift::

CSO_Raal says:
::Wants to do something, but refrains, shakes head::

CNS_Richardson says:
%::Shrugs also:: Guard: All right, I'm ready. Might as well get this interview over with. He's in there? ::Nods at the doorway::

FCO_Baptiste says:
::Let’s the doors close:: Level 22.

Host Shinar says:
%::Notes the CNS' arrival, rolls his eyes and mumbles:: Oh perfect ...

MO_van_den_Broek says:
#Marco: Well, it doesn't have to, yet.  What's on your mind?

Host Shinar says:
%<Guard One> ::Gestures at the doorway which leads out into the main gardens:: Yes, at a nearby table.

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
::Takes a seat at the head of the conference table, not entirely comfortable with tables and desks yet::

FCO_Baptiste says:
::Watches the numbered floors scroll on the turbolift display::

Host Shinar says:
<Doctor Oxly> ::Sits down beside the Admiral:: Cromwell: I trust you are all right with this?

CNS_Richardson says:
%::Enters through the designated doorway, and stops just inside, pausing to study Shinar from that distance::

FCO_Baptiste says:
::When the turbolift stops, holds door open::

Host Shinar says:
%::Stares at the CNS from a distance::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Exits turbolift::

CSO_Raal says:
::Follows everyone out of the turbolift::

MO_van_den_Broek says:
#<Marco> MO: Well, I've found somewhere in Groningen, someplace nice.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Heads the Paula Greene crew through the halls to get to the designated room::

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
Oxly: Of course.  I'm surprised we didn't investigate this much sooner.  Now, where's my phaser?

MO_van_den_Broek says:
#Marco: Groningen, as in North?

CTO_Ryan says:
::Follows the XO::

FCO_Baptiste says:
::Follows the rest of the crew::

CNS_Richardson says:
%::Sighs and goes over to the table, taking a seat opposite Shinar:: Shinar: So, nice to see you again.

Host Shinar says:
<Doctor Oxly> ::Blinks at the Admiral:: Cromwell: Phaser?

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
Oxly: Oh, Nevermind, old habit.

MO_van_den_Broek says:
#<Marco>MO: I knew you would say this.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Finally reaches the doors and opens them then waits for all the crew to enter before entering himself::

Host Shinar says:
%CNS: Uh huh, and what would you want?

CSO_Raal says:
::Enters meeting room::

FCO_Baptiste says:
::Enters and stops at attention::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Enters the room, sees the Admiral and comes to attention::  Admiral: Sir.

CSO_Raal says:
::Comes to attention at sight of the Admiral::

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
::Stands up as he sees the crew begin to file in.  Thinks they look like they just came from a monastery::

Host Shinar says:
@<Vakol's Acquaintance> ::Knocks on the side of the wall as the door swishes open and he enters the room:: CO: Pardon me, Vakol, but I believe there's a need of a Starfleet Officer outside.

MO_van_den_Broek says:
#Marco: Marco, I thought we discussed this.  I don't want to live in the North.  I'd sooner live in Belgium.

Host Shinar says:
<Doctor Oxly> ::Nods at the new arrivals::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Smiles as he sees the Admiral and stands at attention as well:: Cromwell: Paula Greene senior crew reporting as ordered, Sir.

CNS_Richardson says:
%::Shrugs with a slight smile:: Shinar: It seems I'm supposed to interview you. See how things are going?  ::One eyebrow raises slightly:: So, Shinar, how have you found your stay with the Federation?

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Opens his eyes and stares up at his friend:: Bryles: I was sleeping.

MO_van_den_Broek says:
#<Marco>: MO: Honey, you haven't even seen the place.  It really is….

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
Paula Greene Crew: At ease, everyone.  ::Gestures to chairs in the room::  Sit down.  This shouldn't take long.

Host Shinar says:
%CNS: I've been kept in the Brig for a month, bruised when the ship, helmed by incompetent crew fell under attack and so forth.  How would you think? ::Coldly::

CSO_Raal says:
::Sits down in a chair at the table::

MO_van_den_Broek says:
#Marco: I don't care!  You know I have a promise to keep.  I'm sorry, but we stay in Tilburg.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Nods and takes one of the seats::

FCO_Baptiste says:
::Looks about for the proper seat and sits down::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Walks to the table and sits down in chair::

Host Shinar says:
@<Bryles> ::Half smile:: CO: I apologize once again but there is someone causing quite a commotion outside.

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
Paula Greene Crew: It's nice to see you all again.  How's the ship, Commander?  ::Knows full well what the answer to that question is::

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Gets up and goes to see what this nonsense is about:: Bryles: If there were need for a Starfleet Officer, I would think you could have handled it, Captain.

Host Shinar says:
<Doctor Oxly> ::Letting them speak and gathering his notes::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Nods to the Admiral::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
Cromwell: Better than it's crew, Sir.  We just came from a very strenuous and difficult mission.

FCO_Baptiste says:
::Adjusts his trousers::

Host Shinar says:
@<Bryles> CO: I haven't been on duty for months now.  You just got back.  ::Smiles::

MO_van_den_Broek says:
#<Marco> MO: You're making this very difficult for me, Rina.

CSO_Raal says:
::Thinks the former CO looks regal in his Admiral's uniform with the single pip inside a black square pin::

CNS_Richardson says:
%::Nods:: Shinar: So, it occurs to me that we haven't had much of a chance to talk.

Host CO_Vakol says:
@Bryles: Mmm…hmm... ::Looks about::

CNS_Richardson says:
%::Tilts her head to one side:: Shinar: So, where was it you came from again?

Host Shinar says:
%CNS: Vulcan.

MO_van_den_Broek says:
#Marco: Well, I'm sorry.  I can't believe you did that.  ::Lets go of him and walks away::

Host Shinar says:
%::Wonders what the CNS is trying to pull::

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
XO: So I've heard, so I've heard.  ::Misses being out there just a little bit.  His new flagship is good but not the same::

MO_van_den_Broek says:
#<Marco> MO: Wait Rina!  Audrina!  ::Starts to walk after her::

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
XO: Anything you want to relate to us about that trip?  ::Sits back down::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Sits quietly, adjusts the position of the phaser and tricorder on her belt::

Host Shinar says:
@<Bryles> ::Leads the CO out into the main living room, gestures out a bay window to the street below where a few people are gathered near a human male who is shouting and holding his head::

CSO_Raal says:
::Sees the CTO fidget with her equipment::

FCO_Baptiste says:
::Adjusts the position of a throwing dagger and its neck sheath::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
Cromwell: Just that I think we've seen enough destruction to last us a lifetime, Sir.

CNS_Richardson says:
%::Nods:: Shinar: Ah yes, I knew that ::Looks at the PADD she brought in with her:: And you were in Starfleet for a while, why don't you tell me about that?

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Looks down into the street oddly wondering what this is all about::

Host Shinar says:
<Doctor Oxly> ::Sweats slightly at all the weaponry they're holstering::

Host Shinar says:
%::Blinks:: CNS: I've never been in yer bleedin' fleet!

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
::Notices all the fidgeting and readjusting going on and grins a bit.  Ah, yes, the same old crew::

Host Shinar says:
<Doctor Oxly> ::Coughs slightly as he gets up:: Well, I suppose I should begin.

CSO_Raal says:
::Senses the tension in the room::

CNS_Richardson says:
%::Looks a little surprised and back at her PADD:: Shinar: Really? It says here.... ::Pauses, as the change of tone sinks in::

Host Shinar says:
@<Bryles> ::Looks down at the man:: CO: Might be a bit insane, I would assume.

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
::Turns to Oxly:: By all means, go right ahead, don't wait for me or anything.

FCO_Baptiste says:
::Looks the Doctor as he rises idly ::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Suppresses a chuckle::

CSO_Raal says:
::Shifts attention to Dr. Oxly::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Watches as the Doctor stands::

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
::Leans back in the chair::

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Frowns at Bryles and this nonsense:: *Starfleet Security* Captain Vakol to Starfleet Security, please send a team to the wharf district to disperse a crowd.

CNS_Richardson says:
%Shinar: Interesting terminology you're using. Spent some time on Earth, England, perchance? ::Tries to keep the sound of surprise out of her voice::

Host Shinar says:
<Doctor Oxly> ::Looks at the Admiral, then at the crew:: ALL: Some months ago, your ship, the U.S.S. Paula Greene was shunted to a different subspace layer or “plane” if you will, during a mission to find the missing Vulcan vessel, the S'Trek.

Host Shinar says:
@<Starfleet Security> *CO* Aye, Captain.

CTO_Ryan says:
::Nods::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
Dr. Oxly: Correct.

FCO_Baptiste says:
:Rolls eyes::

CSO_Raal says:
::Nods::

Host Shinar says:
@ACTION: The man below the building the CO is in lifts his head up and screams, "NOISE! PAIN! ANGUISH! ALL IN HEAD! KILL THEM ALL! DIE STARFLEET! NO! CAN'T DO IT!"

Host Shinar says:
@<Bryles> ::Blinks::

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Thinks it’s a good thing he called security and goes back to bed::

Host Shinar says:
<Doctor Oxly> ::Taps a PADD and the viewscreen behind him shows an image taken from a "camera" on the Paula Greene's Bridge during that mission, showing the Vulcan at the center of the Bridge, smirking::

Host Shinar says:
%::Shakes his head:: CNS: No, I've never been there, why do you ask?

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Shifts in his seat::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Looks up at the viewscreen::

CNS_Richardson says:
%::Shakes her head slightly:: Shinar: Your tone of voice, the accent, distinctly British.

Host Shinar says:
<Doctor Oxly> ALL: It was here you encountered an unknown Vulcan male who was equipped with extreme psionic abilities.  He suggested that you all were gifted with the same abilities due to your presence near the Galactic Barrier.

Host Shinar says:
%::Blinks:: CNS: Uhm...nope.

CNS_Richardson says:
%::Raises an eyebrow again and makes a note in the PADD::

Host Shinar says:
@<Bryles> ::Watches the CO return to his room and shrugs.  Hears the typical transporter whine and sees three Security personnel arrive on the scene::

CNS_Richardson says:
%::Speaking to herself:: Very interesting.... hmm…  ::Enters another comment into the PADD::

CSO_Raal says:
::Listens to the Doctor intensely::

Host Shinar says:
%::Reaches toward the PADD:: CNS: What do you got on there?

CNS_Richardson says:
%Shinar: Now, Shinar, where were we? ::Pulls the PADD away::

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
::Still thinks S'Trek was a weird name, even for a Vulcan ship::

Host Shinar says:
<Doctor Oxly> ALL: The Vulcan later reappeared, according to reports, and harassed your Counselor, suggesting that she was responsible for mass hallucination onboard the Paula Greene due to her "gifts," last year as well.

CSO_Raal says:
::Doesn't remember that::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Thinks back, remembering the strange episode::

Host Shinar says:
<Doctor Oxly> ALL: So far, from the reports and physicals we've received on you, we've seen a steady decrease in your abilities and the lack of reappearances of the Vulcan may suggest that he is losing his abilities as well. We would like to hear first hand your accounts or uses of your abilities.

Host Shinar says:
%::Frowns::

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
Oxly: Speed it up, please, Doctor.  We are all aware of the events.

Host Shinar says:
@ACTION: Suddenly, a Security Officer crashes through the second story window of the room the CO is in.  He is unconscious.

CTO_Ryan says:
::Thinks: Abilities?  I was not affected::

CNS_Richardson says:
%Shinar: So, why don't you tell me a little about yourself, your past?

Host Shinar says:
<Doctor Oxly> ::Throws a look at the Admiral and takes his seat:: Cromwell: I am done.

Host Shinar says:
%CNS: Why do you want to know?

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Looks back at all his fellow officers:: All: So, who wants to go first?

CTO_Ryan says:
::Raises hand::

Host Shinar says:
@<Bryles> ::Comes rushing into the room:: CO: Are you all right?

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
Dr. Oxly: May I ask why the CTO is here?  She was never affected by the Vulcan and why is the CNS not here as she was most affected.

Host Shinar says:
<Doctor Oxly> Cromwell: I was told by Starfleet Command the Counselor had other matters to attend to.  The CTO is here because she was present during the events in question and it has not been disproved that she was not affected in every fashion.

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Gets up and frowns at the Security Officer and then at Bryles:: Bryles: Thank you for your hospitality but I think it would be best if I seek my rest and relaxation in a better area of San Francisco.

CNS_Richardson says:
%Shinar: Well, because neither of us is going anywhere until the questions surrounding your past are answered, so we might as well get them answered, don't you think?

Host Shinar says:
@ACTION: The CO can hear shouting and weapons fire from the street below.

Host Shinar says:
@<Bryles> ::Nods at the CO, leans down beside the unconscious Security officer and takes his pulse::

Host Shinar says:
%CNS: Well, YOU sure have a lot of information, why don't you tell me?

CTO_Ryan says:
Dr. Oxly: Doctor, I was unaffected by the Vulcan's tactics and the effects of the sub space layer.

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
Dr. Oxly: I see.

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Helps the security officer up and dusts him off::

Host Shinar says:
@ACTION: The Security Officer is unconscious and remains limp in the CO's arms.

FCO_Baptiste says:
::Thinks the CSO should start perhaps or the XO::

Host Shinar says:
<Doctor Oxly> CTO: That remains to be seen.

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
CTO: Ryan, please try to use your mind to move that empty chair over there.  ::Points::

CTO_Ryan says:
Admiral: Aye, Sir.  ::Tries to concentrate on the chair and tries to move it::

Host Shinar says:
@<Bryles> ::Goes to another room and brings back two Type-2 phasers:: CO: Want one in case we're in danger?

Host Shinar says:
ACTION: The chair does not move.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Shakes his head, thinking this is a waste of time::

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Drops the security officer on the bed, takes the phaser from Bryles and leaves him there.  Goes to the door to the apartment and heads down into the street:: *Starfleet Security* I believe your officers, responding to an uprising in the wharf district, need backup.

CNS_Richardson says:
%Shinar: I'm sort of a skeptical sort of girl, you know? This…  ::Tosses the PADD on the table:: is all words.  I don't know how much of it is true or isn't.  I find I learn a lot more from talking to someone face to face.  ::Sits back and studies Shinar from across the table::

Host Shinar says:
@<Starfleet Security> *CO* Acknowledged.

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
Dr. Oxly: There's proof for you.

CTO_Ryan says:
Dr. Oxly: I am unable to move the chair, Doctor.  I assure you I am unaffected.

Host Shinar says:
@ACTION: The CO finds the two other Security personnel unconscious in the street.  People are hiding behind hover vehicles and in buildings, the man from earlier is clutching his head, screaming, and stumbling around.

CSO_Raal says:
::Raises hand::

Host Shinar says:
%CNS: Right.

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Wonders how something like this could possibly be going on at the very heart of the Federation in San Francisco::

Host Shinar says:
<Doctor Oxly> CTO: It has not been determined what the effects are.  For all we know, these abilities could be one of many side effects.

CNS_Richardson says:
%::Stares at Shinar, not speaking, obviously waiting::

Host Shinar says:
@<Man> ::Screaming:: No!  I won't do it!  You can't make me!  No!  No! No!  No!  No!

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Appraises the situation and sees the man clutching his head is likely the cause of all this.  Ensures his phaser is on heavy stun and shoots the man::

Host Shinar says:
@<Man> ::Is slammed by the phaser blast and sent to the ground::

Host Shinar says:
%::Sighs and thinks::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
Dr. Oxly: So what do you suppose we do, sit here and try to do things we know we cannot do?

CTO_Ryan says:
::Nods in agreement with the XO::

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Approaches the man slowly and cautiously and wonders what Mister van den Broek is doing right now, as he could use a medical officer::

Host Shinar says:
%CNS: Well, uh... I was born on Vulcan.  Grew up on a ... uh ... farm.  Had a pet, big furry thing, big fangs.

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
XO: I think everyone should relate their experiences with the powers from their own perspective.

CNS_Richardson says:
%::Very attentively listening:: Shinar: Really?  Pets are wonderful.  And a farm?

Host Shinar says:
@ACTION: The man is unknown to the Captain.  He has brown hair, is human and wears slightly dirty civilian clothing.

Host Shinar says:
%CNS: Yeah, big farm. There were... llamas.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
Admiral: Will all due respect, Sir, I haven't seen any changes in me that would make me believe I have "Super powers."

CNS_Richardson says:
%Shinar: Go on; what was the pet’s name? ::Can't hide a reaction of surprise:: Llamas?

Host Shinar says:
@<Man> ::Still barely conscious, mumbling to himself:: No, no I have control, please no I don't want to kill them.

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
XO: Then we should hear from those that were affected first.

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Stands over the barely conscious man:: Man: I was trying to sleep. ::Waits for more security to show up::

Host Shinar says:
@ACTION: Seven more Security Personnel beam into the CO's area.

CNS_Richardson says:
%Shinar: Now really, Llamas on Vulcan?

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Nods:: Admiral: As far as I can tell, the only persons affected where the CNS, and my wife, Lieutenant. Biishe

CTO_Ryan says:
::Sighs thinking she could be on shoreleave right now but is instead stuck in this room with Dr. Kreskin::

Host Shinar says:
%CNS: What, you don't think we can have Llamas on Vulcan? ::Sees she is obviously buying this and it's so easy to fool Starfleet officers::

CNS_Richardson says:
%::Picks up the PADD again and makes another note::

Host CO_Vakol says:
@Starfleet Security: Here is the cause of all this commotion.  ::Points at the barely conscious man:: And your officers are over there. ::Points at the knocked out security officers::

CSO_Raal says:
::Raises hand::

Host Shinar says:
@<Man> ::Suddenly sits up, in full consciousness, clutching his head:: No, no, NO!  I have control!  I HAVE CONTROL!

CNS_Richardson says:
%::Leans back, still holding onto the PADD:: Shinar: Go on, this is most.... interesting. I'm learning a lot.

Host Shinar says:
<Doctor Oxly> ::Nods at the CSO::

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Phasers the man again::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Sees the CSO raise his hand and thinks: Oh, please don't say anything so we can get out of here::

Host Shinar says:
@<Man> ::Is slammed by the phaser blast but does not go unconscious::

CSO_Raal says:
XO: Commander, I was affected as well, even though I already had some of those powers you talk about.

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Increases the phaser setting and hurries away from the man::

Host Shinar says:
@<Guard One> ::Scans the Man as he sees the phaser blast doesn't affect him:: What the...can you guys pick him up on sensors?

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CSO: Then, Lieutenant, you have the floor.  I'm sure Dr. Oxly is eager to learn about your….powers.

Host Shinar says:
@<Other Guards> ::Shake their heads “No”::

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Mutters:: Self: Oh just kill him, already!

Host Shinar says:
@<Man> ::Screams for a moment then falls to the ground, seemingly unconscious::

CSO_Raal says:
Dr. Oxly: Some of my natural Betazoid abilities were intensified, including an increase in my telekinesis.  I also helped Richardson and Biishe summon the Vulcan a few times.

CTO_Ryan says:
Dr. Oxly: There you go, Doctor, keep him for your tests and let the rest of us go.  ::Waits for the glare from the Admiral and XO::

Host Shinar says:
%CNS: Well, the pet's name was Snappy.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Smiles::

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
::Raises eyebrow at Ryan, but only grins::

Host Shinar says:
<Dr. Oxly> CSO: I see.

FCO_Baptiste says:
::Wants to get a few new knives for his collection, he needs some replacements::

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Rolls eyes, tosses his personal duffel over his shoulder and moves off down the street towards the Presidio::

CSO_Raal says:
Dr. Oxly: I also used those powers to the crew's benefit in a later mission.

Host Shinar says:
@<Man> ::Suddenly gets up.  He no longer looks normal.  He has large bags under his eyes, he is paler and spots the CO leaving:: CO: Captain Vakol of the U.S.S. Paula Greene, I presume? ::Grins::

CNS_Richardson says:
%::Nods:: Shinar: Snappy.  I see.  Snappy was one of the llamas I take it? ::A tone of disbelief apparent in her voice:: You possibly mean S'Nappy, Shinar?

Host Shinar says:
<Dr. Oxly> ::Takes notes:: CSO: Could you go into description?

CTO_Ryan says:
::Suppresses the urge to get up and stun the CSO so he will shut up::

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Ignores the man:: Man: My ship's the...Lollipop.  It's a good ship.

Host Shinar says:
%CNS: No, no, no, Snappy was my pet, y'know.  The one who's name you asked for?

Host Shinar says:
@<Man> CO: Right. <Guards> ::Take aim with phasers cautiously::

CSO_Raal says:
Dr. Oxly: The crew was captured by a benevolent species.  We attempted an escape and I used my mental abilities to crush a few robotic enforcement droids.

Host Shinar says:
@<Man> CO: So, where is Lieutenant Ryan and the others?

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Turns frowns and glares at the man:: Starfleet Security: Hang on.

Host Shinar says:
<Dr. Oxly> ::Thinks: "Interesting":: CSO: Please continue.

CNS_Richardson says:
%Shinar: Oh, okay, it's an unusual name for a Vulcan pet.

CTO_Ryan says:
::Thinks back: Hmm….I don't remember that::

Host Shinar says:
@<Guards> ::Look at the Captain for a moment then turn back to the Man::

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Approaches, keeping some distance between himself and the man::  Man: Who are you and what are you talking about?

CSO_Raal says:
Dr. Oxly: I tried to do it a few other times but I wasn't able to do it, especially during our last mission.  It seems my mind is either exhausted or the abilities went away.

CNS_Richardson says:
%Shinar: So, go on.  You grew up on this farm on Vulcan with Snappy the Llama.  Were you an only child?

FCO_Baptiste says:
::Sits back in his chair and is tempted to take a knife out to clean under his nails::

Host Shinar says:
@<Man> ::Brushing himself off he grins sadistically:: CO: Name's Skyler. Your crew will tell you I'm dead.  I am, just back to get vengeance, y'know, typical stuff.

Host Shinar says:
@<Guard One> ::Prepares to stun him heavily and transfer him to the psychiatric ward at Starfleet Medical::

Host Shinar says:
%CNS: Snappy wasn't a llama.  And ... uh ... yeah, I was an only child.

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Waves hand:: Starfleet Security: Okay, take him out. ::Turns and heads off::

CNS_Richardson says:
%Shinar: Really? Not a llama?  Let's see... ::Thinks back:: Big, furry thing but not a llama?  Snappy was a “what” again?

Host Shinar says:
@<Skyler> ::Is already moving when the Security personnel fire, drives one leg through an entire security officer's mid-section, grabs his phaser and kills two other guards, taking each blast painfully::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Looks over at the FCO then at the XO and Admiral, hoping someone will put an end to this::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Taps fingers on the table::

Host Shinar says:
%CNS: Uhh ...a...dog.

FCO_Baptiste says:
::Sees that the CTO is restless::

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Sets his phaser to a level capable of melting titanium and fires on Skyler::

Host Shinar says:
@<Skyler> ::Dives out of the way of the CO's blast and returns fire.  Starts running and diving behind hover vehicles::

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
Dr. Oxly: There you go, I think we are finished here.

CSO_Raal says:
::Feels a twinge::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Stands from the chair, relieved this farce is over::

Host Shinar says:
<Dr. Oxly> Cromwell: Hardly, Admiral.

CSO_Raal says:
::Doubles over::

CNS_Richardson says:
%Shinar: Ah, I should have guessed, a dog on the llama farm.  Well, Shinar, let's skip ahead a few years; I think I have a clear picture of your childhood. What have you been up to the past... oh... three years?  I mean where have you been, what have you done?

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Continues to fire on Skyler:: *Starfleet Security* This is Captain Vakol in the wharf district, send me everybody!

Host Shinar says:
@<Starfleet Security> *CO* We're picking up weapons fire.  What is going on?!

CTO_Ryan says:
::Watches the CSO double over::

Host Shinar says:
@<Skyler> ::Uses up his entire phaser energy and mumbles::

FCO_Baptiste says:
::Wonders what is wrong with the CSO::

Host Shinar says:
@ACTION: None of Skyler's blasts hit the CO.  One of the CO's blasts blows off a chunk of Skyler's arm.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Gets up and approaches the CSO:: CSO : Raal, are you all right?

CSO_Raal says:
::Straightens up:: All: There's trouble in San Francisco.

Host CO_Vakol says:
@Skyler: Stand down, Mister Skyler!

Host Shinar says:
@<Skyler> ::Curses under his breath:: CO: You think you've won...eh?  I won't stop.  I can't stop.  Not until they're all dead for what they've done!

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
::Stands:: CTO: Scan him.

Host Shinar says:
@<Skyler> CO: NO!

Host Shinar says:
<Dr. Oxly> ::Quirks eyebrow:: CSO: What are you talking about?

CTO_Ryan says:
Admiral: Aye, Sir.  ::Takes tricorder from her belt and flips it open, scanning the CSO::

Host CO_Vakol says:
@Skyler: Yes, or I'll be forced to kill you!

Host Shinar says:
@<Skyler> CO: You don't get it! I'm already dead!

CSO_Raal says:
Dr. Oxly: I'm not 100 percent certain but I think the Captain is in trouble.

Host CO_Vakol says:
@Skyler: Then I'll kill you again or as many times as it takes.  I'm on shoreleave!

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CSO: How?

Host Shinar says:
@<Skyler> ::Dives over the car and rushes the CO, tossing his own phaser aside and tackling the Vulcan.  Skyler is actually crying:: CO: I'm dead and now they must pay for it!

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
CSO: Do you know where?

CTO_Ryan says:
::Looks at the CSO:: CSO: Yes, Lieutenant, please elaborate.  ::Flips tricorder shut and replaces it in her belt, standing::

FCO_Baptiste says:
::Is glad he got dressed to come down::

CSO_Raal says:
XO/Admiral: Near the Captain, I think.  ::Pauses:: He's in the wharf district of San Francisco.

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Kicks and struggles under Skyler trying to get him off of him as Skyler's drip on his face::

Host Shinar says:
@<Skyler> ::Incoherent:: CO: I have to kill them for leaving me behind! That's what he told me!  I have to make them pay!  I have to get revenge! ::Shakes the CO with his arms::  I have to MAKE THEM PAY!  ::His bags start to vanish, and his skin goes from pale to normal::

CSO_Raal says:
All: Someone from our past.

Host CO_Vakol says:
@Skyler: Who?

Host Shinar says:
@ACTION: Starfleet Shuttles start to arrive on the scene of the fight. Various Security personnel are beaming in, locking down the area.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Shakes head:: CSO: How do you know this, Lieutenant?

Host Shinar says:
@<Skyler> CO: The one who brought me back!  ::He is normal again:: Please, Captain, end this now before I kill someone.

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
::Punches his COM badge:: Transporter: Beam all of us in this room to the wharf district in San Francisco, on the double!

Host Shinar says:
@<Skyler> ::Crying, falls to his knees::

CSO_Raal says:
XO: I'm not certain.  I think I picked something up from the Captain.

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Gets out from under Skyler:: Starfleet Security: Take this man into custody and secure him immediately!

Host Shinar says:
@<Guard Four> CO: Aye, Sir.  ::Moves in to arrest Skyler::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Blinks::

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Wipes street grime off his uniform:: Self: Why do all the psychos follow my ship?

Host Shinar says:
@ACTION: Before Doctor Oxly can do anything, the Paula Greene group are beamed to the Wharf and see Skyler kneeled before the CO.

FCO_Baptiste says:
::Feels that peculiar tingling ::

CTO_Ryan says:
@::Dematerializes and rematerializes in the Wharf district.  Sees the commotion and draws phaser and rushes off towards the CO::

Host Shinar says:
%CNS: I've been around.

FCO_Baptiste says:
@::Materializes in the wharf district and runs along with the CTO::

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
@Vakol: Are you all right, Captain?

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
@CO: Captain?

Host Shinar says:
@<Skyler> ::Crying, looks up at the familiar faces of the approaching Paula Greene crew::

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Glances at his crew as they materialize:: All: If anyone has an explanation for this... ::Waves at Skyler:: ...I'd love to hear it.

CSO_Raal says:
@::Aloud:: Skyler!

Host Shinar says:
@<Skyler> ::Shakes his head:: No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

FCO_Baptiste says:
@All: Skyler?

CNS_Richardson says:
%Shinar: Really, maybe you could be just a tad more specific, Shinar. ::Smiles::

CTO_Ryan says:
@::Sees the CO with Lieutenant. Skyler on his knees and approaches::  CO: Sir?  Skyler: Lieutenant. Skyler!  ::Aims phaser at Skyler::  What are you doing here?

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
@Skyler: Lieutenant. Skyler?

CSO_Raal says:
@::Searches for his phaser but finds he doesn't have one::

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Sees they all know him:: All: I think I need to be briefed!

Host Shinar says:
%CNS: Well, there was Betazed then Earth then, uh, Trill and uh ... I'm a big traveler, I had an artifact collection.

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Watches the Starfleet Security teams secure the prisoner::

Host Shinar says:
@<Skyler> ::Suddenly feels a tug:: No, please don't let him take me!  He's going to redo the damage!  Redo the damage!  Stop him!  Stop me!

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
@::Notices the multitude of Starfleet Security and then notices the news com holo-cameras floating around::

CTO_Ryan says:
@Skyler: What?  Who?  ::Puzzled::

FCO_Baptiste says:
@Admiral: I suggest he be placed for psych evaluation.

CNS_Richardson says:
%::Looks at the PADD in her hand:: Shinar: For example, what about around Stardate….? ::Quotes a date off of her PADD, one of the incidents where Shinar was involved::  Where about the universe were you about that time?

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
@CO: Captain, this is our former CTO, but he died.  We saw him die. 

Host Shinar says:
@ACTION: The Security personnel grab Skyler and then are suddenly throw backward by some sort of unknown force.  A blinding vortex opens under Skyler and he is sucked in.

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
@::Thinks:  Great, this will be on the evening news::

CSO_Raal says:
@::Looks at Skyler, concentrates to see what Skyler wants::

CTO_Ryan says:
@::Squints at the blinding light, phaser still aimed at Skyler::

Host Shinar says:
@::Tries to remain calm, thinks they're trying to prove something here:: CNS: Uhm...I was on.. a cruise?

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Sees Skyler disappear and holsters his phaser:: XO: How long until the Baryon Sweep of the Paula Green is completed?

FCO_Baptiste says:
@::Thinks: Ut oh, Alice in Wonderland time::

Host Shinar says:
@ACTION: The vortex closes soon after.

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
@::Sees the vortex swallow Skyler, but isn't surprised:: All: We haven't seen the last of him, have we?

CTO_Ryan says:
@::Looks puzzled then turns to the CO:: CO: Are you all right, Captain?

CNS_Richardson says:
%::An eyebrow raises:: Shinar: A cruise? Really?  I love cruises.  Go any place good?

FCO_Baptiste says:
@Admiral: I suppose not, Sir.

CTO_Ryan says:
@Admiral: I do not believe so, Sir.

Host Shinar says:
@::Smiles slightly:: CNS: Wouldn't you like to know?

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
@CO: 3-days, Sir.

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Glances at Cromwell:: Admiral: I'd like to thank you for all the ghosts you've allowed me to inherit aboard the Paula Greene, Admiral.

Host Shinar says:
%CNS: So, since we're chatting so much, I'm famished.  Can we get something to eat?

CNS_Richardson says:
%Shinar: Certainly.  What would you like?

Host CO_Vakol says:
@XO: Excellent, Commander.  Right now I'd like to get some sleep.  See to it that I am not disturbed.  Then report to my ready room in three days to brief me on this Skyler situation.

CSO_Raal says:
@CTO: He's the one who attacked you a while back, right?

Host Shinar says:
%::Thinks:: CNS: Steak?

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
@Vakol:  You are certainly welcome, Captain.  ::Gracious in the face of his sarcasm::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
@CO: Err..sure, Sir.

CTO_Ryan says:
@::Glares at the CSO:: CSO: Noooo.....::Rolls eyes::

CSO_Raal says:
@CTO: Don't lie to a Betazoid.

Host Shinar says:
%::Hopes he can get steak::

CNS_Richardson says:
%::Stands up, and waits for his response:: Shinar: Steak it is. ::Thinks: That's a somewhat odd food request for a Vulcan, but will play along:: How would you like it?

Host Shinar says:
%CNS: Rare.

Host CO_Vakol says:
@Cromwell: Are you done with my crew, Admiral?

CTO_Ryan says:
@CSO: Leave me alone!  Don't even talk to me, Lieutenant.  ::Turns and waits for the CO::

CSO_Raal says:
@CTO: Fine.

CNS_Richardson says:
%::Nods, and goes over to the Guard, and instructs him to arrange for a rare steak to be brought, cut into pieces before being brought in::

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
@::Notices the extra emphasis on the words "my crew"::  Vakol: I am, yes but I can't guarantee that Doctor Oxly isn't.

CTO_Ryan says:
@CO: Shall I accompany you to your destination, Sir?

Host Shinar says:
%ACTION: The guard nods to the Counselor and goes to have the steak replicated.

CNS_Richardson says:
%::Looks to see that the other guards are still on duty and alert.  Goes back to her seat::  Shinar: It will be here in a bit, I think.  Now, we were talking about your cruise.  Where was it you said you went to again?

Host Shinar says:
%CNS: I didn't. ::Grins::

Host CO_Vakol says:
@Cromwell: Then I suggest, Admiral that you get back to it.  CTO: No, Mister Ryan, get back to your meeting with Doctor Oxly.  I'm heading for the Presidio, if I'm safe anyway it's there.

Host CO_Vakol says:
@XO: Commander, get these people back to their meeting.

Host Shinar says:
@ACTION: Starfleet Security begins clearing up the Wharf street. Clearing civilians out of the area and gathering reports.

FCO_Baptiste says:
@Admiral I suggest a break for lunch?

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
@*Dr. Oxly* We are done, correct?

CTO_Ryan says:
@CO: Aye, Sir.  ::Disappointment in her voice as she doesn't want to go back to the meeting::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
@::Nods:: Admiral: I don't think you can beam us back to the lounge?

CSO_Raal says:
@::Wonders what Dr. Oxly wants to do next::

CNS_Richardson says:
%Shinar: Ah, that's right, you didn't.  So, where was it you went on this cruise? I'm looking for a place to go on my next shore leave.

Host Shinar says:
<Dr. Oxly> *Cromwell* No, not yet.  I have yet to gather all needed information.  Now if your Starfleet officers would just not go gallivanting off here and there!

Host CO_Vakol says:
@::Slings his personal duffel over his shoulder and tucks Bryles phaser into his waistband.  Waits for his crew to head back to their meeting::

CSO_Raal says:
@::Prepares to be beamed back::

CTO_Ryan says:
@CO: Sir, are you SURE I can't escort you to your destination?  ::Hope in her voice::

Host Shinar says:
%::Thinks really hard.  Somewhere from the memories of those he's possessed in the past, Selan, Decrino, Abigail, O'Kor.  Hmm...:: CNS: Pandorais III.

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
@*Dr. Oxly* I believe that we are not exactly through "gallivanting", Doctor.  We will reschedule our meeting.  The Paula Greene will be here for three days, after all.  Cromwell, out.

Host CO_Vakol says:
@CTO: I'll be fine, Mister Ryan, right now you have a duty to perform.

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
@All: Now that that is settled, I believe it is lunchtime.

Host Shinar says:
<Dr. Oxly> ::Sighs, rolls eyes:: *Cromwell* You had better hope they get here, Admiral. ::Best attempt at a threat::

CNS_Richardson says:
%::Studies Shinar's face a moment, and nods, making another note: Pandorais III::

CTO_Ryan says:
@CO: My duty is to provide protection for the Captain, Sir.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
@::Smiles appreciatively at the Admiral::

Host CO_Vakol says:
@CTO: And you're on leave, Mister Ryan.

CTO_Ryan says:
@CO: Aye, Sir.

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
@All: You are dismissed for leave, provided that you check in with Doctor Oxly sometime during the next three days.

CNS_Richardson says:
%::Stands up, abruptly:: Shinar: Well, I think we've talked enough.  I have other things to do than to listen to fabrications.  Your steak should be here shortly, I hope it's done to your liking.

CTO_Ryan says:
@Admiral: I have a suggestion, Sir.

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
@CTO: Yes?

CTO_Ryan says:
@Admiral: We could beam Lieutenant Raal back to Doctor Oxly and the rest of us can gallivant.  ::Grins::

Host Shinar says:
%::Smiles:: CNS: Thank you, Counselor. ::Notes her use of the word "fabrications"::

CSO_Raal says:
@::Glares at Ryan::

CNS_Richardson says:
%::Moves to the doorway without speaking further and exits::

Host Admiral_Cromwell says:
@::Grins back:: CTO: No, I think I like the CSO too much.  How about we take a tour of my ship then have lunch?

Host Shinar says:
@::Watches the Counselor leave, wondering::

CTO_Ryan says:
@Admiral: Well, there’s no accounting for taste, Sir.  Lead the way.

CSO_Raal says:
@::Follows the group to the Admiral's new ship::

CNS_Richardson says:
%::Heads back to her temporary quarters and sits down to fill out her report on her interview with Shinar::
