Last time on ACTD: Paula Greene...
Host ScottB says:
The crew continued to investigate the increased decay rate in the Jantami star, with a shuttle expedition sent to take readings
Host ScottB says:
They returned with some liquidy material, and more questions than answers... while the Away Team on the surface prepared the general populace for the worst.
Host ScottB says:
And now... the continuation...

XO_Amendoeira says:
@CTO : Either way.. Let us hope things are going well..
CEO_Hull says:
::Enters the TL, and heads for the Observation Lounge on Deck 1::
FCO_O`Rourke says:

@::clears his throat:: Officer In Charge: Ahem...
CTO_Ryan says:
@XO: Aye, Sir.  ::Follows the XO into the control room and stands nearby while he conducts official business::
Ili_Throki says:
@*Promdi*: So far so good.  It doesn't seem like there's any riot break out yet... not major ones anyways.  Some of the young people want to take their older folks along too.... ::pauses:: And they were willing to stay and give the elders a seat in the shuttles.
Host Rotaji_Wilokad says:
@ ::has retired to a communications lab, to "transmit data to his design team"::
CSO_Tsalea says:
::Walks over to the CMO::
FCO_O`Rourke says:
COMM: All: The CSO is requesting all senior department heads to meet in the Observation lounge in 8 Minutes.
Ili_Throki says:
@*Promdi*: Our culture, as you know, respects the elders to the death... and I guess... that's what happening now.
CMO_Cameron says:
::notices Tsalea approach::  CSO: Sir?
CSO_Tsalea says:
CMO:  Doctor, what has been your observations of the people on the Jantami I?
Nichura_Promdi says:
@ *Throki* Sadly, we have to move beyond that. Our people have been instructed in how to deal with the young people's actions?
OPS_Baley says:
::motions for Ty`Vec to return to the OPS console::
CEO_Hull says:
::Hears the COMM and reroutes the TL to deck 7 to his quarters:: 
CMO_Cameron says:
CSO: They're very sick, sir.  Actually, they're dying.  Commander Amendoeira doesn't think that there's anything we can do for them.
CTO_Ryan says:
@XO: Sir, I am receiving a COM from the Paula Greene requesting all senior officers to report to the observation lounge.
XO_Amendoeira says:
@::hears the COMM:: COMM CSO : Commander.. What's going on up there?
Ili_Throki says:
@*Promdi*: Yeah... The Paula Greene had offered their assistance, in case a major riot takes place.
CSO_Tsalea says:
COMM:XO:  We have new information over the current situation that needs discussing.
FCO_O`Rourke says:
::leaves the shuttlebay and  goes to the turbolift ::
XO_Amendoeira says:
@COMM CSO : Very well.. Shall i take Forecounsilman Promdi with me?
FCO_O`Rourke says:
::enters Turbolift :: turbolift: Bridge
Host Rotaji_Wilokad says:
@ ::walks over to the subspace transceiver complex... hits a few coordinates and frequency settings:: COMM: <Unknown Location>: Angel of Mercy, this is The Disciple. Come in.
CSO_Tsalea says:
CMO:  And what is your opinion?
CSO_Tsalea says:
::Motions for the doctor to follow her.::
FCO_O`Rourke says:
*OPS* The call is made, thanks
CSO_Tsalea says:
COMM:  XO:  That might be a good idea.
XO_Amendoeira says:
@COMM CSO : And will the doctor have no objections to us beaming directly to the bridge?
Nichura_Promdi says:
@ *Throki*: I believe that we should handle such events ourselves, so that those that oppose our new alliance cannot say we brought in the Federation to solve our domestic problems.
CMO_Cameron says:
CSO: Well, we can administer Hyronalin to the population.  ::follows Tsalea::  It should at least alleviate their symptoms.
CEO_Hull says:
::exits off the TL, and heads for his quarters, 2nd on the right, and enters,  grabs a macchiato from the replicator and peers outside the transparent aluminum window while drinking::
CSO_Tsalea says:
CMO:  Is the damage to their cellular system irreparable in the long run?
XO_Amendoeira says:
@::starts walking back from where he came, trying to find Promdi:: CTO : Let’s go... If you want, you can leave the security complement behind.
CSO_Tsalea says:
CMO:  Is there any problem to the Commanders request?
Host Rotaji_Wilokad says:
@ COMM: <Unknown Location>: Angel of Mercy come in... My task is complete. Request extraction and asylum, as agreed in our trade agreement. Respond!
CMO_Cameron says:
CSO: It's too early to tell.  And, yes, the Away team will need to go through the bio filter I've set up in sickbay first.
OPS_Baley says:
*FCO* Closing channel.
CTO_Ryan says:
@XO: Very well.  ::Motions for Reyes and Wang to stay behind::  Ready, Sir.
CSO_Tsalea says:
COMM:  XO:  The doctor requires you to come through the special bio filters.  We will meet you in the observation lounge.
Ili_Throki says:
@*Promdi*: A backup plan never hurts.  And sir, the transport is ready for you too.  As leader of the Joran'T'Kam, you get front row seat.
FCO_O`Rourke says:
::exits the turbolift::
XO_Amendoeira says:
@::reaches the cafe where Throki is:: Throki : We need to find Forecounsilman Promdi.. There is something in the Paula Greene we need to discuss.
XO_Amendoeira says:
@COMM CSO : Very well..
CSO_Tsalea says:
CMO:  Is there any reason, from what you saw, that would... give these people an enemy?
OPS_Baley says:
::trying to make head nor tail of the confusing warning::
Ili_Throki says:
@::nods at the XO::  *Promdi*: Commander Amendoeira requests an audience with you.  He said that something in the Paula Greene he needed to discuss.
OPS_Baley says:
*CSO* Request permission to stay on the bridge, I'm getting something through on the comm system that I think needs my attention.
CMO_Cameron says:
CSO: Not from what I saw.  Maybe Commander Amendoeira has more information on that particular issue.
CTO_Ryan says:
@::Follows the XO::
XO_Amendoeira says:
@COMM OPS : Lt.. Can you beam me and Commander Ryan, along with the Forecounsilman up?
CSO_Tsalea says:
CMO:  Perhaps.  ::Steps into the TL::  Computer:  Bridge.
Nichura_Promdi says:
@ *Throki*: Bring him then, Consul. I will see them.
CEO_Hull says:
::Looks at the chronometer and heads out the corridor to the Observation Lounge on deck 1, using the rear entrance::
Ili_Throki says:
@*Promdi*: Alright. Throki out.
OPS_Baley says:
COMM XO: Initiating beamup now, sir.
XO_Amendoeira says:
@COMM OPS : Wait.. Not yet...
Host Rotaji_Wilokad says:
<Angel of Mercy> & COMM: Wilokad: Disciple, this is Angel of Mercy. Payment received and approved. We shall arrive within a few hours.
Nichura_Promdi says:
@ ::turns off the speaker and pours himself another tall glass of water, feeling parched::
Ili_Throki says:
@XO: The forecounselmin says you can go see him in his office.
OPS_Baley says:
COMM XO: Aye sir, locking onto you and awaiting your signal.
XO_Amendoeira says:
@::nods:: Throki : Thank you.. ::turns to leave, but then stops:: Where is his office?
CSO_Tsalea says:
:Steps onto the bridge::
Ili_Throki says:
@XO: I'll take you there myself.  Follow me please.  ::starts to walk out of the cafe and turns left, and then up 2 flights of stairs, and then turns right, and then turns left.. and then left again.. and then right.. and then left again.::  XO: Here was are.
CMO_Cameron says:
::steps onto the bridge, and lingers by the Engineering console::
CSO_Tsalea says:
OPS:  I want you to check sensor logs for all traces of any residual ion trails.  Correlate them with the current known traffic in this area.
Nichura_Promdi says:
@ ::stands arthritically after downing the glass of water::
XO_Amendoeira says:
@::follows Throki, trying to get his bearings the whole way:: Throki : Ahhh.. Thanks you... ::knocks on the door::
CTO_Ryan says:
@::Follows the XO and Throki up the stairs and through what seems like a maze of corridors::
OPS_Baley says:
CSO: Aye sir. Sir, I've got something strange on the comm system that I'd like you to look at. It appears to be a signal from somewhere nearby, but I wasn't aware of any other vessels in the area.
Nichura_Promdi says:
@ ::manages a full voice, proud of himself:: Door: Come!
CSO_Tsalea says:
OPS:  Can you trace it?
Ili_Throki says:
@CTO: What is it that you need to discuss with the counsilman?
Ili_Throki says:
@::opens the door and ushers the guests in::
CEO_Hull says:
::enters the Observation Lounge and sees that he is the first one there, as usual::
OPS_Baley says:
CSO: Attempting now. ::tries to get a triangulation on the signal::
CMO_Cameron says:
::decides to wait for Tsalea to make a move before he goes in::
CSO_Tsalea says:
OPS:  Where you able to pick up any of the communication?
XO_Amendoeira says:
@::enters, and direct his attention to Promdi:: Promdi : Forecounsilman... We need to beam up to the Paula Greene. I think that they have found something... Will you come?
CTO_Ryan says:
@Throki: I do not need to discuss anything with the councilman.  I am only following along.  My place is by the XO's side.
OPS_Baley says:
CSO: I can play back what we got. Something about an angel of mercy, requesting extraction.... ::puts the signal back on speakers::
Nichura_Promdi says:
@ ::glances at Ili, then back at Ammmemmamnamnamn.... the commander:: XO: Of course, Commander. We will both come.
CSO_Tsalea says:
::Turns to take a data padd from one of her staff.:: SO:  Thank you.
CSO_Tsalea says:
OPS:  Do so.
Ili_Throki says:
@Promdi: No.. you go ahead.  Someone has to look after things down here while you're up there.
OPS_Baley says:
CSO: Err... this can't be right. The computer says it's coming from government headquarters on the planet.... their communications complex, if I got the readings correct.
CSO_Tsalea says:
OPS:  Can you pinpoint it exactly?
XO_Amendoeira says:
@::thinks of insisting, but just nods:: Promdi : Very well... COMM OPS: Lt.. Beam us up.
CSO_Tsalea says:
::Touches a console button::  COMM:  XO:  Commander, where are you?
OPS_Baley says:
CSO: Attempting to narrow it down, I've got it to within a few floors.....
CTO_Ryan says:
@::Moves closer to the XO and prepares for transport::
Nichura_Promdi says:
@ ::considers Ili's request, but nods:: XO: It seems it will just be me.
XO_Amendoeira says:
@COMM *CSO* : On my way now Tsalea..
Ili_Throki says:
@::was about to protest but gets beamed up with the rest of them::
CSO_Tsalea says:
COMM:  XO:  Leave the CTO.  Her presence is required in locating someone.
OPS_Baley says:
COMM: XO: Aye, sir. ::hits the remote to the transporter room::
Host Rotaji_Wilokad says:
@ ::closes the comm array, and goes to walk off towards the shuttle facility::
XO_Amendoeira says:
::materializes on the PG:: CSO : Too late... But i'll send her back down... ::turns to the CTO:: You heard the Commander... ::turns to Promdi and Throki : Welcome to the Paula Greene.. This way, please...
OPS_Baley says:
CSO: Problems getting an exact fix, but perhaps if I use the location of an officer on the ground, I should be able to direct them to the signal source by comparing the two readings?
Nichura_Promdi says:
::looks around inquisitively as he follows:: XO/Throki: Impressive...
CSO_Tsalea says:
*CTO*:  Someone is sending unusual information from the planet.  OPS will supply you with the coordinates.  Please see if you can discover anything.
Host Rotaji_Wilokad says:
@ ::stops in his tracks... remembers he never sent the extraction coordinates... goes back and transmits them::
Ili_Throki says:
::looks around the transporter room:: XO: Oh wow.......  ::follows behind Promdi as she looks around::
XO_Amendoeira says:
::walks into the corridor, and onto the nearest TL::
CSO_Tsalea says:
::Nods at OPS::  OPS:  Beam the CTO back down and work with her.
XO_Amendoeira says:
Promdi, Throki : Someday, this will be you.. Traveling through the stars, helping others.. ::manages a weak smile::
CTO_Ryan says:
*CSO* Aye, Sir.   ::Nods to the transporter chief:: Energize.
Nichura_Promdi says:
:;sways just a little but tries to cover it up:: XO: I have seen it in my dreams. The Joran'T'Kam have a bright future up here in the heavens...
Ili_Throki says:
XO: Someday... when we get our technology perfected.
OPS_Baley says:
CSO: Commander Ryan confirmed back on the surface, I've fed co-ordinates to the transporter chief, so she should be pretty close to the building.
Host Rotaji_Wilokad says:
ACTION: A blast of solar wind temporarily overtakes the Paula Greene, overloading two EPS junctures
OPS_Baley says:
COMM CTO: Commander, you should be in the communications complex now. I'm going to try to direct you to the source of the signal we received.
FCO_O`Rourke says:
::goes up to the observation Lounge::
CSO_Tsalea says:
OPS:  Keep an eye out for any vessels entering the area, also for any unusual energy readings.
CTO_Ryan says:
@::Rematerializes on the planet surface.....again::
CTO_Ryan says:
@ COM: PG: OPS: Acknowledged.
XO_Amendoeira says:
::Walks into the TL:: TL : Observation Lounge
Host Rotaji_Wilokad says:
@ ::turns off the communications transmitter, grabs a nearby blunt object, and smashes it to make it impossible to trace the transmission records::
Ili_Throki says:
::walks into the TL:: XO: Ah. is this the Vertical Lift?
Nichura_Promdi says:
::stands at the rear of the lift so he can rest against the walls without being observed::
OPS_Baley says:
Computer: Computer, set up a perimeter scan of the system, and sound audible alarm if any vessel is detected.
XO_Amendoeira says:
Throki : Vertical and horizontal, yes.. This is a Turbolift.. It takes us quickly to most parts of the ship.
CTO_Ryan says:
@::Waits for directions from the PG.  Stands in the middle of the communications complex, looking around her::
Ili_Throki says:
XO: Intriguing.
CSO_Tsalea says:

OPS_Baley says:
COMM: CTO: I'm getting a fix from the building.... to your north. Is it accessible to you?

Host Rotaji_Wilokad says:
@ ::walks down the hall, quickly and quietly, pensively looking at the hall chronometers every once in awhile::
XO_Amendoeira says:
Throki : We shall see in a few seconds.. ::stops before the doors, and ushers Promdi and Throki in.. :: This way..
CSO_Tsalea says:

FCO_O`Rourke says:
::watches the two strangers appear and then the XO ::
XO_Amendoeira says:
::starts the introductions:: Forecounsilman Promdi, meet the Paula Greene’s crew.. ::continues on to introduce everyone to everyone::
Ili_Throki says:
::tilts her head:: XO: Okay.  ::watches Promdi's frailed walk::
OPS_Baley says:
COMM: CTO: You're getting close, but the readings are fuzzy from here. It could be anywhere inside the building you're at now.
CSO_Tsalea says:
::nods a greeting while handing a padd of data over to Tealk.::
CTO_Ryan says:
@COM: OPS: Acknowledged.  ::Continues to follow her tricorder readings::

OPS_Baley says:
COMM: CTO: I just ran a Z-axis sweep... You can rule out the upper floors.
Nichura_Promdi says:
::nods at the pointy-eared female:: CSO: As do you.
CTO_Ryan says:
@COM: PG: OPS: Acknowledged.
CSO_Tsalea says:
All:  Gentlemen, as most have you have learned, we have discovered that the acceleration of the suns death is not natural.
XO_Amendoeira says:
::sits down, digesting the results on his PADD::
OPS_Baley says:
COMM: CTO: From the sound of the transmission, you're looking for someone trying to leave the planet.

CTO_Ryan says:
@::Recalls seeing someone quickly exiting the building when she materialized:: COM: PG: OPS: Acknowledged.  ::Turns to double back::
CSO_Tsalea says:
All:  The substance bridonite, which is not natural to this region, has been injected into the Jatami sun.   This substance is found in the use of weapons bought on the black market.
XO_Amendoeira says:
::frowns as he reaches the end of the report::
CTO_Ryan says:
@::Quickly follows the tricorder readings out the door towards the shuttle complex::
Host Rotaji_Wilokad says:
@ ::pushes the pilot out of the way, locks the airlock, and ignites the engines::
Nichura_Promdi says:
All: Our government is not heavily armed, nor do we have anything in our arsenal that uses that material.
CSO_Tsalea says:
::Looks over at their guests::  My staff is looking for away to reverse this affect, but the substance is not something we are familiar with.  Do you have any idea why someone would wish to destroy you?
CTO_Ryan says:
@::Enters the shuttle complex and notices a pilot on the ground beside a shuttle craft.  Rushes over just as the engines ignite::
OPS_Baley says:
COMM: CTO: We're picking up engine ignition on a ship near your position. ::checks his screen:: There's nothing scheduled to leave the system at the moment. It could be an atmospheric flight, but it's the best lead we have at the moment.

CTO_Ryan says:
@::Taps COM badge:: COM: PG: OPS: Unknown shuttlecraft just lifted off and is airborne.
CSO_Tsalea says:
Promdi:  To destroy not only a race but an entire systems is extremely drastic measures to be rid of ones enemies.
Nichura_Promdi says:
All: Is there a solution to this... bridonite? ::tries not to lick his lips, feeling very thirsty::
OPS_Baley says:
*XO* Sir, I'm sorry to interrupt, but we've had an unauthorized departure from the planet.
Ili_Throki says:
ALL: Anyway to reverse it?
CTO_Ryan says:
@::Helps the pilot to his feet::
XO_Amendoeira says:
*OPS* : Hold... Promdi : Forecounsilman.. it seems someone is trying to escape your world, without authorization... I'd like your permission to pursue this person..
CSO_Tsalea says:

Nichura_Promdi says:
::hardens his gaze:: XO: Granted. Guilty conscience will cause many to do crazy things. Stop this person. I want to know why they are leaving.
OPS_Baley says:
COMM: CTO: Commander, do you require beamup?
XO_Amendoeira says:
::nods:: OPS : Tell Mr. O'Rourke to follow this ship.. I want it disabled... Do what you have to achieve that goal..
FCO_O`Rourke says:
::types in initiate ::
Host Rotaji_Wilokad says:
% ::hits the throttle to max... exits the atmosphere... sees the big vessel in orbit:: Praise our Supreme Fathers, may they understand the actions of their disciples... ::steers the vessel towards the opposite direction, in the direction that he transmitted::
CTO_Ryan says:
@::Checks to see the pilot is okay and watches him leave the shuttlebay::  COM: PG: OPS: Affirmative.  One to beam up.
Ili_Throki says:
XO: We certainly want the culprit alive.
FCO_O`Rourke says:
XO: The Duty FCO has been so informed
CSO_Tsalea says:
Nichura:  The bridonite can be counter acted by nordronium, but we would require an unusually large amount of it.  Nor has it been done on a solar scale.  This would not reverse the current affects of your sun either.  Only return it back to it shorter longevity.
XO_Amendoeira says:
::chuckles, as he notices he forgot the FCO was there:: FCO : Sorry Mr. O'Rourke..
OPS_Baley says:
COMM: CTO: Beaming you directly to the bridge, I have the feeling your skills are going to be needed at tactical. ::initiates transport::
Ili_Throki says:
Promdi: That might buy us extra time to get more people off the planet!  Maybe resettle in another system...
CTO_Ryan says:
::Materializes on the Bridge of the Paula Greene and walks quickly to tactical station one::
Host Rotaji_Wilokad says:
% ::realizes he's redlining the fusion engine's coolant system... makes no difference... fumbles around in his pocket for a small caplet::
FCO_O`Rourke says:
XO: I am informed the CTO has been beamed up to her station.
XO_Amendoeira says:
::nods:: Throki : That was our plan in the long run.. To at least be able to get all your people out..
Nichura_Promdi says:
::nods at Ili:: Time must be our primary concern now, I agree. ::turns to Tsalea:: CSO: Where do we get this other material? Jantami is not a rich world.
XO_Amendoeira says:
FCO: Very well. If you want to, you may return to your station.
FCO_O`Rourke says:
::nods::
Ili_Throki says:
CSO: And how much time it'll actually buy us?
FCO_O`Rourke says:
::rises and leaves:::
OPS_Baley says:
CTO: I've been tracking the ship since launch. Currently is on a heading of 147 mark 6.
Host Rotaji_Wilokad says:
% ::quietly mumbles a prayer:: COMM: <Unknown Location>: Angel of Mercy, break off extraction. I am no longer viable.
CSO_Tsalea says:
::Looks toward the XO for that answer.::
CTO_Ryan says:
::Taps the tactical console:: OPS: Got it, thanks.  ::Watches the shuttlecraft on the monitor::
FCO_O`Rourke says:
*CTO* We may need to beam whoever off that ship, monitor the power curve and lifesigns.
CTO_Ryan says:
*FCO* Acknowledged.  Wouldn't it be better to follow him to see where he is going?
Host Rotaji_Wilokad says:
% ::makes a hard turn and starts a beeline towards the sun:: COMM: Paula Greene (audio only): Your Federation wishes to "enhance" our culture. Our culture was fine without you! The Joran'T'Kam will drown in the pool of multiethnicity that the Federation stands for. May the Disciples of Our Supreme Father live on to save our race! ::chews the caplet... feels the stinging in his blood... then slumps forward on the throttle controls::
FCO_O`Rourke says:
*CTO* The duty FCO has him on an intercept course now
XO_Amendoeira says:
Promdi, Throki : Whatever time it buys us, we will use it to get more of your people out. We can hold lotteries as more ships are available for evacuation...
CTO_Ryan says:
*FCO* Acknowledged.
FCO_O`Rourke says:
::listens and thinks ut oh ::
FCO_O`Rourke says:
::arrives on bridge::
Nichura_Promdi says:
XO: Then it seems we have no choice. ::looks exhausted again:: Please, do what you can.
Ili_Throki says:
::nods::
Ili_Throki says:
::looks over at Promdi:: Promdi: You alright?  It has been a long day... perhaps you should go rest.
XO_Amendoeira says:
::smiles:: *OPS* : Lt.. I need you to scrounge up as much as you can of nordronium, and get it to us ASAP...
Nichura_Promdi says:
::pats her hand gently:: Throki: I will be fine. I must see this through.
XO_Amendoeira says:
*OPS*: Lives depend on it, so I know you will do your best.
OPS_Baley says:
CTO: Can we lock tractors before he gets out of range?
FCO_O`Rourke says:
::takes his station :: CTO: Any luck getting a lock ?
CTO_Ryan says:
FCO: What's our present speed?
OPS_Baley says:
*XO* Aye sir. I'll get onto the emergency aid bureau immediately and see if they can get some transports here.
Ili_Throki says:
::shakes her head:: Promdi: No.  You rest... I'll see this through.  ::looks over at XO:: Is there a place where he can lie down?  He is... not well.
FCO_O`Rourke says:
CTO:  full impulse
CSO_Tsalea says:
::Looks over at the CMO, motioning him toward their guest.::
Host Rotaji_Wilokad says:
% ::engines go above redline... begin going critical as the ship races past Jantami I into the debris... It makes no difference as Rotaji is now long dead, carrying with him the legacy of his comrades' work::
XO_Amendoeira says:
::nods:: Throki : I will take you down to sickbay.. The doctor will be able to do much for you there...
FCO_O`Rourke says:
CTO: I have to break off soon, or we will be headed into the star
XO_Amendoeira says:
::nods at the Doctor, and helps Throki help Promdi off::
CSO_Tsalea says:
XO:  I would suggest that we send for more ships as well as the substance.
CTO_Ryan says:
::Taps the console:: All: Perhaps I can disable the engines.  ::Locks on target and fires a short phaser burst::
Nichura_Promdi says:
::holds on to Ili's arm:: CSO: How long? How long until we get some relief?
OPS_Baley says:
CTO: This could be risky, but I can try to transport the entire cockpit section aboard.  
CMO_Cameron says:
Throki/Promdi: Let me take you to sickbay.  You'll get some rest there.
CSO_Tsalea says:
Promdi:  We are working on it now.
CTO_Ryan says:
OPS: Can you get a transporter lock on the lifesign?
FCO_O`Rourke says:
::initiates escape maneuver :: CTO: Sorry , we have to break off
Nichura_Promdi says:
::nods at her, then follows his aide without protest::
Ili_Throki says:
::steadies Promdi:: Promdi: When there are news.. You’ll be the first one to know.
OPS_Baley says:
::hits the transport, no time for a lock, just transports anything within a five meter radius of the lifesign::
Host Rotaji_Wilokad says:
ACTION: The phaser burst hits dead on, but reacts with the weakened coolant system and causes the fusion drive's plasma to vaporize the ship.
