@::In the command center on the planet surface awaiting further orders and monitoring the security check points on a large PADD::

FCO_O`Rourke says: 
::sitting at the flight controls console ::

CMO_Biishe says:
::In the Transporter waiting for the captain and CSO to show up.::

CNS_Richardson says:
@:;sitting in the command center, fidgeting a little in her seat::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The Paula Greene is in "orbit" of the Algernon Device.

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
::enters the Transporter Room and steps up to the pad::

CMO_Biishe says:
::nods to the CSO::  CSO: How do you like your new position?

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Shinar> @ ::Wanders into the command center, spots the CNS::

CTO_Ryan says:
@::Looks to the CNS:: CNS: Counselor, there are some rations in the locker over there if you're hungry.  ::Nods towards a locker::

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
CMO: The official answer?  I'm looking forward to the many challenges my new position will provide me.

CNS_Richardson says:
@::fidgets a little more:: CTO: Thanks, but I'll pass on the rations. ::sees Shinar, and inwardly grimaces::

Host CO_Vakol says:
::hurries into the transporter room a few minutes late:: CMO/CSO: Doctor ... Mister van den Broek ... my apologies for my tardiness. ::buckles his duty jacket::

FCO_O`Rourke says:
::hopes the data he got from the CSO is right about what constitutes a safe distance::

CMO_Biishe says:
CSO: And the unofficial?  ::Steps up beside her::

CNS_Richardson says:
@CTO: Is it safe, do you think, to go back outside?

CTO_Ryan says:
@::Looks as Shinar enters::  Shinar: Find a seat, sit down and shut up.

CMO_Biishe says:
::Nods to the captain::

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
CMO: Can I come back?  ::quickly nods to the Captain::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Transporter Chief> CO: Captain, I can only transport you into a single area near the center of the structure. In order to beam out, you'll have to return to that area. I've been informed that communications are set throughout the structure, so you should not have any trouble comming us.

Host CO_Vakol says:
::steps up onto the transport pad, smoothes his slicked back black hair::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Shinar> @ ::Blinks at the CTO:: CTO: Aren't you in a jolly mood ...

CMO_Biishe says:
CSO: You are always welcome, we miss you down below ::Smiles::

Host CO_Vakol says:
::nods at the transporter chief:: TRChief: Of course ... energize.

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
CMO: Thank you, sir.

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Transporter Chief> ::Nods, and presses a button::

CTO_Ryan says:
@::Glares at Shinar::  Shinar: I WAS in a good mood until you showed up, now sit down and shut up or get out.  Take your pick.

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::materializes aboard the Algernon Device and flips on the palm beacon in his hand, casting its light around the room::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The AT beams over to the Algernon Device ... and to their horror find themselves hovering in space. However, everything is not as it seems ... they are able to breath, and there is gravity. They begin to fall.

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Looks around as they beam onto the ship::

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
#::looks around, and screams::

FCO_O`Rourke says:
::Uses a laser  to determine  the distance from the device ::

CMO_Biishe says:
#::To no one::  OK... this is interesting...

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::realizes they are not in a room ... and their is no floor underneath them:: CSO: Quiet, woman!

CMO_Biishe says:
#CSO:   Are you all right?

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Shinar> @ CTO: Y'know, no wonder the Federation gets assaulted by one vicious evil after another ... what with people like you "making" friends around the galaxy. ::Turns around and exits::

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
#::looks at the Captain in horror::  CO: What did you just say?

TO_Eldad says:
::Sighs in front of the TAC console, he's tired from all the work he did last night:: Self: Finally I'm finished, now all I have to do is fix the vertion capacitor systems and I will have time to rearrange the 4th phaser grid

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: They finally land on seemingly invisible ground some feet below. No injuries.

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
#::lands and rolls on the floor::

CTO_Ryan says:
@::Watches as Shinar exits the command center and shakes her head::

FCO_O`Rourke says:
::monitors the vitals of the AT ::

CNS_Richardson says:
@::stands up, and paces a little, making her way over to the rations locker, rummaging::

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::feels the ground underneath his feet and stands, adjusts his duty jacket, and looks around some more:: All: Everyone all right?

TO_Eldad says:
::Grabs a PADD from the right of the TAC console and begins studying the procedures::

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Feels the floor before her::  CSO:  I wonder what caused that...  CO:  Yes.

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: They are surrounded by countless stars, and nebulae. Small planetoids can be seen ... the area seems to be some sort of stellar cartography.

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::puts the palm beacon away and pulls out a tricorder:: CSO/CMO: We should try to find the command center of this vessel.

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
#CO: Apart from being on the receiving end of conduct unbecoming a Starfleet Officer, let alone a Captain, I am fine.

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Reaches over to Audrina::  CSO:  You alright?

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
#CMO: Yes.  ::shakes Biishe away from her::

CMO_Biishe says:
#::nods and pulls out her tricorder, scanning.::

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::frowns at van den Broek:: CSO: And your screaming was conduct becoming an officer?

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Looks at the CSO with a bit of confusion::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The Paula Greene slightly shakes for a moment, then returns to normal.

TO_Eldad says:
::Changes a few screens in the PADD and then turns to look at the console:: Self: Hmm, this will be harder then I thought

CNS_Richardson says:
@:;accidentally knocks some rations onto the floor, and bends down to pick them up, stuffing them all back into the locker:: CTO: Is it safe, do you think, to go out? I'd like to check on the colonists.

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::hears a beeping from his tricorder and returns to it:: CMO/CSO: There is a door ... this way. Twelve feet. ::begins walking::

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Looks around the room thinking how lovely it is, then looks back down to her readings.  Hearing the captain looks up and follows::

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
#CO: For an officer falling through space, yes.  Either way, I hardly think it deserved a comment like "quiet, woman".  ::folds her arms and stands firmly put::

CTO_Ryan says:
@CNS: It is inadvisable, however if you stay close to the command center, I think you will be okay.  Take a couple of the security men with you, just in case.

TO_Eldad says:
::Looks around confused:: All: What just happened?

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Whispers::  CSO:  Audrina, not now.  Come.

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Macquire> @ ::A Bajoran civilian steps into the Command Center:: CTO: Lieutenant Ryan?

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::glances at van den Broek, sees she is not going to move:: CSO: I don't have time for this. ::taps his commbadge:: COM: Paula Greene: Please transporter Chief Science Officer van den Broek back to the Paula Greene.

CNS_Richardson says:
@::nods:: CTO: I'm just going to the colonists' quarters; I should be as safe as they are ::grins:: But I'll be glad to have a couple of security officers tag along.

CTO_Ryan says:
@::Taps COM badge::  Security: Ryerson, Jackson, escort the Counselor on her rounds.

TO_Eldad says:
::Turns to the console and begins scanning the area::

FCO_O`Rourke says:
::studies the effects of the device's appearance on the sub space in the area ::

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
#CMO: No!  It's time this bigot got what was coming to hi- hey!  ::fizzles out back to the Paula Greene::

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Sighs and shakes her head::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Transporter Chief> COM: CO: Aye, sir. ::Beams her back::

CTO_Ryan says:
@<Ryerson/Jackson> *CTO* Aye, Sir.

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Goes over to the captain and moves toward the door::

TO_Eldad says:
FCO: Any idea what was that?

CNS_Richardson says:
@::exits the command center, pausing a moment outside the doorway::

FCO_O`Rourke says:
:: maneuvers the ship to take advantage of some of the small  "rills" in the fabric of subspace ::

CMO_Biishe says:
::Scans for any life beyond the door::

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::mutters something unintelligible under his breath and continues towards the door::

CTO_Ryan says:
@<Ryerson/Jackson> ::Meet the Counselor outside the command center:: CNS: We are with you, Counselor.

TO_Eldad says:
::Frowns and returns to look at his console::

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Hears the captain and shakes her head in the darkness::  CO:  I am detecting no life forms behind this door.

CNS_Richardson says:
@::nods to them, and sets off towards the colonist area::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: A door opens up before the CO & CMO without a sound. A seemingly endless bronze colored corridor is before them.

Host CO_Vakol says:
#CMO: Very well... ::moves to open the door::

CTO_Ryan says:
@::Turns to the Bajoran:: Bajoran: What can I assist you with?

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Looks back at him as the door opens and then at the corridor.::

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::mutters:: CMO: Follow the yellow-bricked road, I suppose...

FCO_O`Rourke says:
TO: Evidently the passage of the craft into this region has caused some oddities in the subspace in this region, can you help me collect data on it ?

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
::storms out of the transporter room and into a Turbolift::  TL: Deck 3

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Macquire> @ CTO: We've been informed that the Paula Greene has left orbit ... is something wrong?

TO_Eldad says:
FCO: Already on it

CMO_Biishe says:
#CO:  I believe that is an old Earth phrase... ::Follows behind, scanning, her senses open::

CTO_Ryan says:
@Macquire:  Negative, they have left orbit to check on another matter.  They will return shortly.

TO_Eldad says:
::Changes a few settings on the console and begins to work::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The Paula Greene slightly shakes again, enough for the entirety of the crew to notice.

CNS_Richardson says:
@:;after a short walk, arrives at the colonist area, and enters, the two security officers trailing behind her::

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::nods in the darkness, as he walks down the bronze corridor::

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
::shakes in the turbolift::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Macquire> @ CTO: Ah, I understand ... I suppose. It's just that the freighters are concerned because they're essentially defenseless up there.

CMO_Biishe says:
# ::Reaches a hand over and lightly touches the walls.::

TO_Eldad says:
Self: This is really getting annoying

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The corridors in the device have quite high ceilings, suggesting that those who used them were at least seven feet tall.

CTO_Ryan says:
@Macquire: No need for concern, I assure you.

FCO_O`Rourke says:
COM: CO:  We have begun analyzing data on the distortion of subspace this things passage has caused, it seems benign enough for now, but we have just had a major shake

Host CO_Vakol says:
#CMO: Look how low the floors are... ::scans them:: ...the people who used such low floors must have been very tall.

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Stops a moment to take a sample::

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
TL: Bridge.

CNS_Richardson says:
@::begins making rounds, stopping to chat with the colonists, getting a feel for how they're adjusting to their new home::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: They are as well bare of any carpeting and markings on the wall.

CMO_Biishe says:
#CO: It looks to be that way.

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::thinks:: COM: FCO: Have Commander Amendoeira contact the colony leaders and advise them of the possibility of tectonic activity.

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Moves to join him::

FCO_O`Rourke says:
COMM: CO: Aye , Sir

TO_Eldad says:
::Turns to look at the FCO:: FCO: The device's arrival has made the damage to subspace in the area worse, that's all I could find. ::Sighs::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The Counselor comes across Shinar leaning against a wall smoking one of his jum jah sticks.

Host CO_Vakol says:
#CMO: I could go for a jum jah stick right about now...::continues down the corridor::

FCO_O`Rourke says:
TO: It has, but if we can document it well enough, it may tell us something of the craft itself

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Shinar> @ ::Takes a puff and looks at the CNS:: CNS: Ah, you got tired of Ms. In Your Face as well?

CNS_Richardson says:
@::looks a little surprised:: Shinar: You seem to be everywhere, my friend.

CMO_Biishe says:
#CO:  I have a thought that just popped into my mind.  ::Following along::  Are you familiar with the Nicodemians?

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Shinar> @ CNS: I'm a man of many abilities ... walking fast is one of them.

TO_Eldad says:
FCO: I'll try, but I'm not promising any thing

Host CO_Vakol says:
#CMO: No...::keeps walking::

FCO_O`Rourke says:
TO: That is all any of us can do is to try ::smiles::

CNS_Richardson says:
@:;grins:: Shinar: Be nice. I just can't stand being cooped up in a place like that. ::whispers:: Don't tell anyone, but I suffer from claustrophobia.

TO_Eldad says:
::Turns to look at his console again, he begins to input commands as fast as he can::

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
::storms onto the bridge and starts stabbing her console when she gets there::

CMO_Biishe says:
#CO:  It is a leap in thought mind you.  I have done a lot of medical research with a doctor Jadis... collection of old ways of treatment.  The Nicodemians are an ancient race that lived over 1,000 years ago.  They were thought to be wiped out... slaughtered by the Bellicose.

FCO_O`Rourke says:
::watches the violent behavior of the CSO as she arrives::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Shinar> @ ::Quirks his mouth:: CNS: Why is that?

TO_Eldad says:
::Turns to look at the CSO for a moment and looks back::

FCO_O`Rourke says:
CSO: Welcome back

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The CO & CMO finally come to an intersection in the corridor ... there seems to be some sort of turbolift on their right.

Host CO_Vakol says:
#CMO: Uh huh... ::keeps walking::

CNS_Richardson says:
@::shrugs:: Shinar: Dunno. ::changes subject:: Just thought I'd come see how the colonists are settling; so far, they seem fine.

CMO_Biishe says:
#CO:  Some of that technology, though rare, has been found. ::Nods to the walls::  The material here seems very similar.

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
::whirls round on O'Rourke:: FCO: Don't even start.  I've got my own work to do.  ::spins back to her console and continues stabbing::

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::looks up and down the turbolift and scans for the location of the nearest energy source::

FCO_O`Rourke says:
CSO: Will you come look at this data and see if it looks terribly out of place to you ?

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Pauses with the captain::

Host CO_Vakol says:
#CMO: So you think this is a Nicodemian vessel? ::doesn't look up from his tricorder::

CNS_Richardson says:
@::looks at Shinar for a moment, then moves to head on to the next group of colonists:: Shinar: Talk to you later...

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
::throws her arms up in the air::  FCO: Oh, I've HAD IT with this....::storms off the bridge and back into a Turbolift::

TO_Eldad says:
Self: Where are you.. ::Searches again::

CMO_Biishe says:
#CO:  A possibility... a leap in logic if you will.  I would not swear by it yet.

FCO_O`Rourke says:
::looks on in amazement as the CSO storms out ::

CNS_Richardson says:
@::spots the small group of children they'd seen earlier, and stoops down, to observe their game for awhile, listening to their chatter::

Host CO_Vakol says:
#CMO: Seems no direction is more likely than any other ... ::steps towards the turbolift;:

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Shinar> @ ::Takes another puff of his jum jah stick, and watches the CNS go:: CNS: Later ...

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
TL: Deck 3!

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The turbolift door swishes open. It's "car" is as bare as the corridors.

Host CO_Vakol says:
#:::gets a bad case of the shakes, and steadies himself against a wall::

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Nods and follows, only to pause::  CO:  Captain?  ::Pulls out her medical tricorder and scans him.::

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::steps into the turbolift car:: CMO: Can barely tell the lift from the corridor.

TO_Eldad says:
::Smiles as he finds some thing:: FCO: There is a buildup of energy throughout the Device

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Sec. Officer One> @ *CTO* Ma'am, we need you to come to the eastern portion of the colony. The builders have found something.

CMO_Biishe says:
#::nods her head, following and looking at her readings::

FCO_O`Rourke says:
TO: There is ?

TO_Eldad says:
::Nods::

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
::leaves the turbolift and storms down the corridor, her face like thunder::

FCO_O`Rourke says:
COMM: CO: Captain , we are getting readings of an increase of energy throughout the device

CTO_Ryan says:
@*Sec Officer* On my way.  ::Stands and exits the command center, turns right and heads to the eastern section of the colony.

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Frowns at her readings, finding nothing abnormal, but makes a note to do a more thorough examination later.::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: Officers in the corridor that the CSO is present in steer clear.

CMO_Biishe says:
#CO:  Any idea how it works?

CTO_Ryan says:
@::Taps COM badge::  *CNS* Ryan to Richardson, please meet me in the eastern sector.  The builders have found something.

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: There does not seem to be any directional input panel within the Device turbolift.

Host CO_Vakol says:
#COM: FCO: Understood, Mister O'Rourke...

TO_Eldad says:
::Resumes monitoring the power buildup::

CNS_Richardson says:
@::notices a flurry of movement over in the eastern part of the colony, and is curious; stands up, and looks in that direction::

FCO_O`Rourke says:
COMM: CO: Should I had the Transporter room stand by to beam you out ?

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Lays her hand on the wall and thinks of the command center::

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
::turns the corner and bumps into someone, pushing him back into the other wall::  Officer: Just leave me alone - you're all as bad as each other!  ::storms off, leaving the officer in a daze, having not even realized he as a Lt Cmdr::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The Paula Greene shakes again.

FCO_O`Rourke says:
::holds onto his seat::

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
::holds onto the wall for support, then continues storming::

CNS_Richardson says:
@::frowns, because she can't quite see what's going on over there, but notices more colonists moving toward that area::

Host CO_Vakol says:
#CMO: Any reason we should be going?

CTO_Ryan says:
@*CNS* Did you copy, Counselor?

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: Suddenly, a booming voice is heard in the Device turbolift ... "WHO ARE YOU."

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Looks at the captain with a frown in her eyes::  CO:  I thought we wanted to go to the command center?

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The walls seemingly glow with the voice's every word.

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Jumps::

CTO_Ryan says:
@::Rushing to the eastern sector of the colony::

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::raises an eyebrow:: Voice: Captain Vakol and Doctor Biishe of the Federation Vessel Paula Greene.

TO_Eldad says:
::Mumbles as he picks up the PADDs that fell to the floor::

CNS_Richardson says:
@*CTO* Didn't quite catch, I'm sorry; repeat please?

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
::enters her quarters and throws herself into the seat.  Suddenly she lets out a loud, long shout::

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Leaves the talking to the captain, though concerned about him.::

CTO_Ryan says:
@*CNS* Report to the eastern sector, the builders have found something.

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The voice responds, "FEDERATION." A moment later, blinding white light shines from the walls, scanning both the Captain and the Doctor.

Host CO_Vakol says:
#COM: FCO: Standby by, Mister O'Rourke ... we've made contact.

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
::burst into tears::

CNS_Richardson says:
@*CTO* I was just heading there; the colonists are all going that direction.

FCO_O`Rourke says:
COMM: CO: Captain, Aye , Sir

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The CTO has to push her way through the colonists, but eventually arrives at the area in question ...

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Holds very still::

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::feels his inner eyelid seal against the white light, and still has to hold his hand up in front of his face::

CNS_Richardson says:
@::sets off, towards the eastern sector::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: ... a group of security personnel are cordoning it off, while the Sec. Officer who commed the CTO is bent over something.

CTO_Ryan says:
@*CNS* Acknowledged, Ryan, out.  ::Approaches the eastern sector and heads over to the construction site::

CNS_Richardson says:
@::arrives, and sees the CTO arriving at the same time; moves to join her::

CTO_Ryan says:
@::Approaches the construction site and pushes her way through the crowd::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: Back on the Device, the blinding white light ends it's scan. The voice states, "CONFIRMED." Suddenly, the turbolift begins to move upward.

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::feels the lift start moving:: CMO: Either we passed the test ... or this will be the shortest turbolift ride on record.

FCO_O`Rourke says:
TO: be prepared to do an Emergency beam out of the CO and CMO, if needed

CNS_Richardson says:
@CTO: What's going on? ::follows along in the CTO's wake::

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Reaches a hand out towards the wall at the sudden movement::  CO:  I wonder what exactly it is they confirmed.

CTO_Ryan says:
@::Enters the restricted area and approaches one of the builders::  CNS: We'll soon find out.

TO_Eldad says:
FCO: They will have to return to the location they beamed at first

CTO_Ryan says:
@All: Okay, what's going on?  ::Looks around::

Host CO_Vakol says:
#CMO: Perhaps they know more about the Federation than we might expect.

FCO_O`Rourke says:
TO: Can't get a lock on them ? ::frowns ::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Sec. Officer One> @ ::Looks up at the approaching CTO & CNS:: Both: Take a look ... ::Gestures at something metallic which is sticking out of the ground, the sunlight glinting off it::

CMO_Biishe says:
<MO Angel> ::Activates the CSO's chimes::

CMO_Biishe says:
#CO:  And if I am correct, then not as extinct as was believed.

TO_Eldad says:
FCO: I'm afraid not ::Lowers his head::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The metallic object seems to be a "hand" of some sort, only it has three, claw-like fingers.

CNS_Richardson says:
@::moves a little closer to the object, studying it::

FCO_O`Rourke says:
TO: See if you can establish a lock then

Host CO_Vakol says:
#CMO: ...if it is the Nicodemians. 

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
MO: Go away!

CTO_Ryan says:
@::Looks down at the metallic object::  Sec Officer:  Move everyone out of the area.  This could be some kind of explosive device.  ::Takes out tricorder and begins scanning the device::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The Device's turbolift ends it's journey ... and the doors swish open, revealing a massive control center ... twenty times the size of "The Robot's" command center which the crew visited only months ago.

TO_Eldad says:
FCO: I cant, they will have to return to the location they beamed into. That is my only way to beam them back

CMO_Biishe says:
<MO Angel>CSO:  Not likely... open up.

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
MO: Not likely.  Go away and leave me alone!

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::tentatively steps out of the lift:: CMO: We appear to have found what we were looking for.

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Looks through the doors::  CO:  Talk about large... ::Waits for the captain to lead::

CTO_Ryan says:
@::Studies the device and the scans::  CNS: It appears this is Bellicose in origin.  It appears to be a portion of the arm of one of their inorganics.

CMO_Biishe says:
#CO:  Assuming this is what we are looking for.

CNS_Richardson says:
@::nods:: CTO: It's been here awhile, you think? ::keeps studying the object::

CTO_Ryan says:
@CNS: Just the fact I am able to scan it indicates this portion of the inorganic has been deactivated.

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The walls are covered with view screens that are dark and non-operational. Computer consoles throughout the massive area, which seems to stretch on for some length ...

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::goes to a rather oversized chair, and sits, examining the console in front of him::

CNS_Richardson says:
@::nods::

Host Algernon says:
# ::Booming voice:: STATE YOUR INTENTIONS. ::All the consoles glow for a moment, with every word it states::

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Walks over to one of the stations, scanning it.::

CTO_Ryan says:
@::Snaps the tricorder shut and places it back in her belt.  Motions for two security officers to start digging around the device::

MO_Angel says:
Computer:  Over ride codes for the CSO's quarters.

Host Algernon says:
ACTION: The two sec. officers begin to dig around the remains of the Inorganic.

Host Algernon says:
<Computer> ::Provides the MO with the said codes::

CNS_Richardson says:
@::steps back a few steps, as the officers work::

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
Computer: Unlock this door on my command only.

MO_Angel says:
::opens the doors and enters::

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::looks up at the voice:: Voice: To learn...

Host Algernon says:
<Computer> CSO: Unable to comply, medical override initiated. 

CTO_Ryan says:
@Sec Officers:  Easy does it.  Try not to damage it.

MO_Angel says:
CSO: Too late...

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
::sees Angel enter::  MO: GET OUT!!!

MO_Angel says:
CSO:  Not likely missy.

Host Algernon says:
ACTION: As the sec. officers continue their work, the remains of a Bellicose Inorganic [Class - Scrim] become more and more apparent.

CNS_Richardson says:
@CTO: I wonder if there is more around.

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
MO: What part of "leave me alone" don't you understand?

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Reading the data, tries to figure out the glow mumbling::  A science officer would be handy about now.

CTO_Ryan says:
@CNS: Could be.  Perhaps there was a battle in this area.  There may be more of these pieces buried here.

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::tries to activate the console he is sitting at, suspecting it is a flight control console::

MO_Angel says:
CSO:  The part about you throwing a tantrum.  You wish to act like a child, you will be treated as such.  I just received some very concerned messages.  About you.  ::Hands on hips stares down at the CSO::

Host Algernon says:
# I HAVE NOT GIVEN PERMISSION FOR YOU TO LEARN.

CTO_Ryan says:
@CNS: Interesting, the device is quite large.  Hopefully it is in one piece.

Host Algernon says:
ACTION: The console the CO sits at does not activate.

CMO_Biishe says:
#::quietly::  CO:  I am fairly certain that this is a Nicodemian artifact.

CNS_Richardson says:
@::nods:: CTO: Is it dangerous, do you think? ::looks at the thing dubiously::

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::removes his hands from the console:: Algernon: I am learning anyway...

Host Algernon says:
# I AM OF NICODEMIAN CONSTRUCT.

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::nods at the CMO, quiet curious about this booming voice::

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Smiles::  CO: I love confirmation.

Host Algernon says:
ACTION: The sec. personnel finish their work ... and they stand back warily, all aware of the Claymore's report on Bellicose Inorganics and how dangerous they are.

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
MO: And I've just heard some very disturbing comments from that bigot of a Captain.  Now, get out of my quarters and let me get over it!

CTO_Ryan says:
@CNS: Well, it is deactivated as I am able to scan it, however we must be cautious none the less.  Sec Officers: Hey, be careful!  I do not want any damage!

Host Algernon says:
# I AM IN REPAIR. LEAVE ME AT ONCE.

MO_Angel says:
CSO:  Let me get this straight... you have problems with the phrasing of some man, and so you confirm the general nonsense many men have about women?  Thank you so kindly.  ::sarcasm.::

CNS_Richardson says:
@CTO: I'm not much help with this; I'll make sure the colonists are moved back a safe distance, and I'll reassure them.

CTO_Ryan says:
@::Looks at the large Bellicose device and takes out her tricorder again and begins scans::

Host CO_Vakol says:
#Voice: Can we help you to repair your systems ... so you can be on your way.

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Moves around the room, wondering what they are repairing.::

Host Algernon says:
# YOU HAVE NO UNDERSTANDING OF THIS TECHNOLOGY. YOU CAN BE OF NO ASSISTANCE. LEAVE

CTO_Ryan says:
@CNS: Of course, Counselor.

Host Algernon says:
<Sec. Officer One> @ CTO: Ma'am ... you should be careful ... ::Hand on phaser::

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
MO: Oh stop it with your "superior" trash.  I'm not going to talk to you.

Host CO_Vakol says:
#Voice: We could develop an understanding...

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
::sits and folds her arms::

CMO_Biishe says:
#Algernon:  Why are you repairing here?  And where is here?

CNS_Richardson says:
@::nods again, and starts moving back towards the colonists, leaving the security teams to do their work::

CTO_Ryan says:
@Security Officer:  Agreed. :: continues scanning the device::  Move everyone back, way back.

MO_Angel says:
::Looks down at the CSO::  CSO:  You have no idea what superior trash is.  ::Shakes head::  I don't understand this tantrum at all.

Host Algernon says:
# HERE IS THE ALPHA QUADRANT, AQUILAE STAR CLUSTER. DESIGNATE UNIVERSE - SEVENTY-FOUR.

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
::sits quietly::

CMO_Biishe says:
#Algernon:  And why did you chose this place?

Host Algernon says:
# I DID NOT CHOOSE THIS PLACE ... I ARRIVED HERE BY ACCIDENT. I TIRE OF THESE QUESTIONS, NOW LEAVE.

MO_Angel says:
*FCO*:  Sir, can you patch me down to the planet?

CMO_Biishe says:
#CO:  Well that is one good think in the colonists favor, they are not here for them.

Host CO_Vakol says:
#Voice: We wish to help. We have a great propensity towards learning.

Host Algernon says:
ACTION: Suddenly, all the viewscreens and consoles throughout the massive command center come to live. The console the CO is at is beyond understanding.

FCO_O`Rourke says:
*MO* Give me a second :: punches some buttons:: Go ahead

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Jumps in surprise, annoyed at herself::  This is getting annoying.

Host Algernon says:
# IT HAS BEEN MY UNDERSTANDING THAT ONE WHO TRIES TO HELP WHILE LEARNING HOW TO HELP DOES NOT HELP AT ALL. LEAVE.

MO_Angel says:
*FCO*:  Thanks.

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::activates the mini-recorder on his palm beacon, recording the images that are playing across the console for later analysis::

MO_Angel says:
COMM:CNS:  Ma'am, I have a problem here.

Host CO_Vakol says:
#Voice: When will your repairs be complete?

Host Algernon says:
ACTION: The viewscreens show various images and records from throughout the Milky Way Galaxy ... it seems the Device is capable of monitoring events of any moment, at any time.

CNS_Richardson says:
@COMM: Angel: What's going on?

CMO_Biishe says:
#::quietly:: Algernon: Depends on the help one needs.

CTO_Ryan says:
@::Motions for security team::  Sec Team: Get an anti grav unit and transport this thing to the command center.  Secure it in a storage container outside the command center and post guards around it.

Host Algernon says:
ACTION: They can see Starfleet vessels here and there ... Borg Cubes ... Kazon vessels in battle ... Dominion ships moving toward a Gamma Quadrant colony ... and other races which defy description and recognition.

Host Algernon says:
<Sec. Officers> @ CTO: Aye, ma'am.

MO_Angel says:
COMM:CNS:  I have a spoiled brat on my hands.  Got any advice on how to handle a temper tantrum?

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The Device's booming voice no longer sounds.

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::remembers the robot and thinks of their inability to help him too::

CTO_Ryan says:
@::Turns and heads back to the command center::

CMO_Biishe says:
#CO: What is the meaning of all this?  Is it something that has occurred or something to occur?

Host CO_Vakol says:
#CMO: Well ... we can't leave until we know when this vessel will leave the area.

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: As the CTO begins to walk back, she notices the frightened looks of the colonist workers ... many of them still remember the Bellicose in their memories and nightmares.

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::glances at what the CMO is watching:: CMO: I don't know ... perhaps happening now.

CNS_Richardson says:
@::grins to herself:: COMM: Angel: Hmmm, is the person needed on duty right now?

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Looks up::  CO:  By the spirits, I hope not.

CTO_Ryan says:
@::Notices the frightened look on the colonists faces as she walks back to the command center::

MO_Angel says:
@COMM:  CNS:  Under the current situation?  Most likely.

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::tries to tell when these images are from by the types of vessels he is seeing::

MO_Angel says:
::Looks at the CSO::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: Suddenly, a massive holographic "viewscreen" appears about twenty yards from the CO & CMO ... a series of lines appears on it, with the label - "Universe Designate 74. Alternate Timeline listings" viewable below it.

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Whispers::  CO:  Captain... ::points::

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::looks at the viewscreen and wonders what it means:: Voice: What is this?

CNS_Richardson says:
@::sighs:: COMM: Angel: Just a moment...

CTO_Ryan says:
@::Enters the command center and makes notes on a PADD on the discovery of the Bellicose inorganic then downloads the information from her tricorder into the PADD::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The device seems to be examining each timeline listed ... moving from year to year shown on the dozens of temporal periods posted ...

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Looks over seeing the captain is still recording, but records as well... just in case.  Inputs a few notes as well.::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: ... the device does not respond to the CO's queries.

CMO_Biishe says:
#Algernon:  You seek something in time?

Host CO_Vakol says:
#CMO: It looks like it is looking for the right timeframe ... perhaps its origin.

CNS_Richardson says:
@::thinks a moment:: COMM: Angel: Take a firm stand; remind the person that he/she is an officer first, and to get to duty, mister. Time for this later.

CMO_Biishe says:
#CO:  I can't help but wonder if this has anything to do with what the Vulcan said.

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::glances at her:: CMO: What do you mean?

MO_Angel says:
COMM:  CNS:  I think I already relayed that.  But I will give it a try in your words.

CNS_Richardson says:
@:;grins for a moment, picturing Angel laying down the law::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The device does not respond as it continues to skim through the dozens of timelines, finally coming to a point where all of them seem to momentarily intersect, then fly out in illogical directions before repositioning themselves. Some of the timelines even fade after the intersection. The device stops scanning, and says ... "THERE."

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::is beginning to develop a headache as the device analyzes "possible outcomes"::

CMO_Biishe says:
#CO:  He said something about preventing a disaster... ::shakes head::  I will have to double check.  I was not much in the frame of mind at the time he spoke.

CNS_Richardson says:
@::goes back to reassuring the colonists, listening for more word from the ship, as she goes::

Host CO_Vakol says:
#Voice: What is there? ::getting slightly anxious at the concept of a disaster befalling them::

MO_Angel says:
::walks back over to the Audrina::  CSO:  You are an officer, not a two year old.  We are in a delicate situation ::under her breath::  as usual... ::Continues out loud::  And you ::points at her::  Are needed at your station.  If anything happens to this ship because you were in here... how do you think you would feel?

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The device remains quiet for a moment, "AN EVENT IN THE SPACE/SUBSPACE/TIME CONTINUUM ... I MOMETARILY COLLIDED WITH IT, AND WAS DAMAGED, THUS WAS MY ARRIVAL HERE."

Host CO_Vakol says:
#Voice: And you intend to return the same way?

CMO_Biishe says:
#::Not sure what that means.::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The Device responds, "MY TRAVEL CAUSES ME TO MOMENTARILY EXIST AT ALL POINTS OF TIME, IT CANNOT BE HELPED."

Host CO_Vakol says:
#::opens his tricorder and begins to determine what kind of effect a collision with a rift of that magnitude would cause on surrounding space::

FCO_O`Rourke says:
::tries to collate the data and organize it for a possible paper ::

Host CO_Vakol says:
#Voice: But you will collide with the rift again, in order to return to your proper place in existence.

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The device says nothing this time.

CSO_van_den_Broek says:
MO: Get out.

CMO_Biishe says:
#CO:  How can one collide with a rift...

MO_Angel says:
::Looks at the female, pretty sure she could pick her up..::

Host AGM_Selan says:
