CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
@::Walking back in the direction of the caves to report what he has found out with the CEO in tow.::

Etna_Morex says:
::Approaches the CSO and CMO.::

CEO_LtCmdr_Mo`Bri says:
::Walking with the CTO wondering if he will eventually smile or not.::

Etna_Morex says:
CSO/CMO: Found everything you needed?

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
::In the cave continuing to run scans of the pools.::

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
::In the caves running scans.::

XO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@::Walking towards HQ to find the CTO and CEO.::

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
Morex: Actually, I found a lot of stuff that wasn't needed. ::Frowns.:: These pools are flooded with DNA traces for all kinds of visitors. Do you let anyone put their hands in here?

CO_Capt_Youngblood says:
::Leaning against a cave wall, quietly.::

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
::Begins to look around to see that the cave is still secured.::

Etna_Morex says:
CSO: Usually know. But The Powers That Be wanted to impress other UFP people... ::Sighs.::

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
@CTO: YOu sure that piece of metal was Ferengi?  I swore it looked Vulcan in nature.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CO: Captain, I would like to have security of this cave increased. It will do little to narrow down the existing DNA, but at least we can prevent any further contamination. Should I contact the ship to get them to beam down more security?

CO_Capt_Youngblood says:
CSO: Proceed Lieutenant. I definitely agree.

XO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@::Looks around as she strolls along...nice planet maybe she should take some time to visit here one day.::

CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
@CEO: Your talent for observation needs to improve, Commander, that was not Vulcan.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
Morex: I can understand that. I am just wondering if the Powers That Be anticipated the security breaches.

CO:  Aye, Captain.  ::Taps her comm badge.::

Etna_Morex says:
CSO: It seems that they were blinded by the glamour the event would bring.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
*PG Security*: This is Lieutenant Piddles, CSO. Please send additional security teams to the surface to secure the cave and the entrance.

CO_Capt_Youngblood says:
::Walks over to the CMO to see what she is doing.:: CMO: Anything I can do to help, Doctor?

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CO: Just keep this place secure, sir.

Etna_Morex says:
::Walks to a pool and put a little object in it and gets it back after a few seconds.::

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
Morex: Perhaps it would be best to install video surveillance in the caves. Do you have a security office that can handle the video feed?

CO_Capt_Youngblood says:
::Raises his eyebrows and walks away, feeling dismissed.::

PG Security says:
#*CTO* Sir, the CSO just commed us asking for more security personnel to beam down what should I do?

Etna_Morex says:
CSO: They are at the HQ. Your CTO was going there. Maybe he can tell them while he's at it? It would probably have more power if another Tac guy asked.

XO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@::Looks up ahead and sees the CTO and CEO heading towards her. Calls out to them:: CTO/CEO: Hey you guys! ::Waves at them.::

CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
*PG Secrity* Belay the order Ensign. I'll check on the situation. ::Notices the XO.::

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
Morex: Perhaps, but Captain did ok the order. Doesn't the Captain outrank our tactical?

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
@::Sees the XO.:: XO: I was just telling the CTO that the piece of metal we found looked an awful lot like Vulcan and not Ferengi.

Etna_Morex says:
CSO: A Captain may have ordered it but it'll just be put on the "to do" pile. If someone speaking the language goes there, it usually goes faster.

CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
@XO: Are you aware of any situation that the CSO would request more security personnel to beam down from the ship without my permission?

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
Morex: Understood. ::Sighs.::

XO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@::Looks at the CEO and the CTO.:: CEO: What metal? ::Thinks that maybe she should have paid attention more when scanning the caves.::

CO_Capt_Youngblood says:
::Watches what the CMO is doing from across a pool.::

Etna_Morex says:
CSO: I need to go back to work. Good luck and thank you.

PG Security says:
#*CSO* I'm sorry but I cannot acknowledge without the permission of Lieutenant Sergon.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
::Nods to Morex and eyes her suspiciously.::

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
@XO: The CSO found a piece of metal that had markings on it and she said that they were Ferengi but I looked and told the CTO that it looked more like Vulcan than Ferengi. ::Glares at the CTO.::

XO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@CTO: I have no idea, except to secure the caves.

CO_Capt_Youngblood says:
CSO: Lieutenant Piddles, where is that security team?

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CMO: Problem, Captain?

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CO: I'll check on it, Sir.

XO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@CEO: Why do you think it is Vulcan?

CO_Capt_Youngblood says:
CMO: No problem just waiting to get more security to get here per your request.

CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
@XO: I do have some information that pertains to our investigation.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
@XO: Well it just does.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
::Taps her comm badge.:: *PG Security*: Security, is there a problem with your beaming down a security team to our location? The Captain has given the order to increase security.

CO_Capt_Youngblood says:
CMO: Making any progress?

PG Security says:
# *CSO* I am sorry, but I have not gotten any order from the Captain or my Chief of security.

XO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@::Looks at both of them and then shakes her head.:: CTO/CEO?: Okay one at a time. CTO: What new information do you have?

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
*CTO* Lieutenant, I am trying to get additional security to the caves. I have requested them from the ship, and the Captain has approved it. Do you know what the hold-up is?

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CO: Somewhat, sir. But I can't figure out if the Ferengi were here or not.

CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
@XO: I have a name to go with the Ferengi, a Forg and a Slorg, they are still in the system, We need to find out whether they are on the planet surface or in orbit and detain them.

CO_Capt_Youngblood says:
CMO: No traces of Ferengi DNA?

XO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@CTO: Okay, we'll do that.

XO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@::Points to the CEO.:: CEO: Now you, why do you say Vulcan and not Ferengi?
CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
@*CSO* Lieutenant, I have not been notified of any request for more personnel. I am the chief and security on the Paula Greene, I take my orders from the Captain and the XO.

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CMO: None. Maybe I'm not scanning in the right place.

CO_Capt_Youngblood says:
CMO: Too bad it would be practically impossible to determine which pool they were taken from.

CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
@XO: I recommend contacting the Paula Greene and locating their vessel first.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
::Lets out a grumble.:: CO: Captain, it appears that security does not believe in answering a security request from her CSO. I sure hope we don't have any emergencies that incapacitates our CTO in the future; else we could be waiting a long time to get reinforcements.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
@XO: Because I have seen Vulcan symbols and their metals are just like what we found. The Ferengi symbol is different and the metal they use is not like what we found.

Etna_Morex says:
::Walks to the CO:: CO: Did you say it would be impossible to determine which pool they were taken from?

XO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@ CTO: Better send a security team down to the caves.  Maybe the Trills can't find anything better than Mr. Guard to keep them safe.

CO_Capt_Youngblood says:
::Growls and taps his badge.:: *PG Security*: Youngblood to Security!

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
@XO: Besides contrary to what the CTO says, there were a lot of Vulcans that came here as well.

CO_Capt_Youngblood says:
Morex: They can move from pool to pool right?

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CO: Yes, it would.

PG Security says:
#*CO*: Erickson here Captain.

XO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@CEO: Why would the Vulcans want symbionts?

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
::Wonders if the symbionts hop form pool to pool or how they get to the other pools.::

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CSO: Having any luck, Zip?

CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
@::Taps his commbadge.:: *Security*: Send down an extra team of personnel to the Captain’s location.
Etna_Morex says:
CO: Actually, not right now. We are doing tests and we closed the passages from pool to pool. The five symbionts were stolen from pool #2.

CO_Capt_Youngblood says:
*Erickson*: If you do not have two security teams down here within 2 minutes, you'll be personally scrubbing every inch of waste management with a toothbrush. Is that understood?!

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
@XO: They do hold a lot of knowledge and well a meld with one would yield plenty of info.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CMO: Not really. These pools are contaminated with all kinds of DNA. It appears our visitors like to put their fingers in it.

CO_Capt_Youngblood says:
Morex: Could you direct my Medical officer to that pool?

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CSO: That's what I'm finding too.

PG Security says:
#*CTO* Yes sir. *CO* They are on their way. Self: GEESH, what’s next? ::Signals a team of a guards to beam down.::

Etna_Morex says:
CO: Yes.

XO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@::Grins.:: CEO: Except then the Vulcan's might take the chance of actually smiling and laughing and that might break their face. ::Gives the CTO a wink.::

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CMO: I would like to go with you. ::Motions to the conversation the CO is having with Morex.::

Etna_Morex says:
::Walks towards the CMO wondering why they didn't ask her those questions before.::

CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
@CEO/XO: It would be illogical for any Vulcans to want Trill symbionts.

CO_Capt_Youngblood says:
::Taps his badge again.:: *CTO*: Youngblood to Sergon!

Etna_Morex says:
CMO: Follow me, Doctor. Your Captain wants me to show you pool #2 where the symbionts were taken.

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
Morex: Very well. ::Follows Morex.::

CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
@*CO* Yes Captain.

XO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@CEO: I rest my case, but run some tests anyways and CTO, call the PG and find out where that Ferengi ship is.
CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
::Follows the CMO along with Morex.:: Morex: I'll be going along as well. I would also like to run some more detailed and enhanced scans.

Etna_Morex says:
CMO: I'm pretty sure the CSO scanned that pool earlier. ::Points to it.:: If you have questions, I'll be working there. ::Points at another pool far back.::

CO_Capt_Youngblood says:
*CTO*: The next time your security staff decides to not follow an order from one of my senior officers, you'll be scrubbing waste management with a toothbrush with them, is that understood?!

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
::Begins to scan the pool pointed out by the CMO.:: CMO: I can do this if you want.

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CSO: Nah, I'll do it, but you can help me.

CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
@*Sir, I need not remind you that the security department takes their orders from myself, the Captain and the XO of the ship, not the science department, The chain of command as Star Fleet has made it important that we follow it.

CO_Capt_Youngblood says:
*CTO*: Lieutenant Sergon, if yourself and myself and the XO become incapacitated does your team sit there with their thumbs stuck up their hind quarters in that situation?! ::Cuts the comm.::

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
@CTO: Were I a Vulcan I would be curious to learn of the knowledge gathered by the symbionts.

CO_Capt_Youngblood says:
::Walks over to pool #2.::

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
::Scans the pool.:: CMO: I think I did this one already, but I may have missed something. Are you detecting anything different than the scans from the other pools?

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
::Begins scanning the pool.:: CSO: I'm checking now.

CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
@CEO: Curiousity is somthing we Vulcan’s do not act on.

XO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@::Hears the CO and looks at the CTO with her eyebrows raised:: CTO: Well, this is going to take some sorting out. *CO*: Has a security team arrived at the caves yet?

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
@CTO: So you say. But I know some that are curious and would love to get their knowledge.

CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
@XO: If the Captain wishes me to resign my commission, he needs to make his thoughts known.

XO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@CEO: Okay, valid point. But for now, let's run this Ferengi idea into the ground first.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CMO: So why do you think they took the symbionts? Any clues?

CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
@XO: Into the ground? Why would you want to do that?

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
@CTO: See I told you so. ::Smiles.::

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CSO: Why do Ferengi do anything? Fun and Profit!

XO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@CTO: And as for you, you are not to resign your commission. After this training mission is over, I need your ass in that tactical seat. Just get a team into the caves and let it ride for now.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CMO: True, but what profit is there with symbionts, unless they are holding them for ransom.

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CO/CSO: I'm finding some of their DNA as well as the DNA of about 15 other species.CSO: Don't know, ask the Ferengi.

CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
@XO: My Tactical Officer has already informed me that a team is on the way there as we speak.

XO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@CTO: It's an expression. Just go with it. ::Grins.::

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
@CTO: Well they better get their bodies here soon.

ACTION: The Security team arrives at the caves.

CO_Capt_Youngblood says:
*XO*: They just arrived.

XO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@CTO: Hadn't you better call the ship and find that Ferengi ship?

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CMO: That's what I scanned earlier. I think it's going to be like finding a needle in a haystack to find out who did this.::

XO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@*CO*: Good.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
@XO: Why do Vulcan's have to be so dang unemotional?

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CSO: Agreed.

CO_Capt_Youngblood says:
CMO/CSO: Save the DNA signatures because it will help us narrow the suspects down by DNA.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
:: Saves the DNA signatures, nods to the Captain, and walks over to where Morex is.:: Morex: Excuse me, but has anyone contacted you and made any ransom demands?

XO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@CEO: Because then they wouldn't be Vulcans.

CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
@*PG Tactical Station* Find me a Ferengi ship of any kind and contact them looking for 2 individuals by the name of Forg and Slorg.

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CO: Aye.
Etna_Morex says:
CSO: Ransom? No. No one contacted us. So my guess is they had a plan to use the symbionts.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
@XO: True but it makes them so boring to be around with all their logic. They have no humor.

TO at Tactical says:
#*CTO* Yes sir, I'll get right on it.

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CSO: Use them for what?

CO_Capt_Youngblood says:
::Glares at the Security team as they take their positions.::

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
Morex: Most likely, Morex/CMO: Or someone perhaps took them to do some genetic research or manipulation.

CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
@XO: We should see if we can find out if they are on the planet and where. CEO: Thank you Ensign.

Etna_Morex says:
CSO: Could very well be.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
@::Glares at the CTO.:: CTO: You called me a what? Ensign?

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
Morex: Has there been any interest in genetic manipulation by your visitors?

TO at Tactical says:
#*CTO* we have found them, sir, There is 2 ships, the ones you are looking for on the ship orbiting just above the Trill HQ.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
@CTO: You owe me an apology Vulcan.

Etna_Morex says:
CSO: I don't recall any mentioning it. But they asked about how symbionts were transferred in the host, how it could survive, how come new hosts could interact with the symbionts and recall past hosts memories, etc.

CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
@CEO: Hold your comments at this moment.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
@CTO: I will not. You apologize now.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
Morex: Do you recall who was asking those questions? Were they anyone in particular?

TO at Tactical says:
#*CTO* And something else, sir, Their manifest shows 3, but our scans have 4 life forms aboard.

CO_Capt_Youngblood says:
CMO: To your knowledge are there any other species compatible with the Symbionts?

CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
@*TO at Tactical*: Thank you. XO: Sir, did you get all that

XO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@CTO: Can they lock onto the life signs and transport them?

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
@CTO: Well I am waiting!

Etna_Morex says:
CSO: No one in particular. But I guess some people's questions answered others'.

XO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@::Looks at the CEO.:: CEO: Let it go, Lieutenant, otherwise it WILL be Ensign, got it?

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CO: Not to my knowledge, sir. Trill are unique.

CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
@CEO: Now is not the time.

CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
@*TO at Tactical*: Can you get a lock on the life form that is not Ferengi?

CO_Capt_Youngblood says:
CMO: So it’s safe to say if it is a black market job, they'll be delivering the symbionts to a Trill.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
@CTO/XO: Right gang up on me both of you. I don't need this abuse. I will deal with it later.

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CO: That would be a good assumption, sir.

CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
@CEO: There is no need to get emotional Lieutenant.

XO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@CEO: One more word out of you and you will be spending the rest of this mission in the brig.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
@::Pulls his scanner and goes looking for any Ferengi DNA he can find::

CO_Capt_Youngblood says:
Outloud: What is taking those three so long?

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
Morex: Was there anyone that stayed behind at a longer more than usual time than anyone else?

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
@::Mumbles:: XO: Understood sir.

TO at Tactical says:
#*CTO*: Yes sir, I have a Trill locked on.

XO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@CTO: And you, drop it. Do not address him in any manner unless it is directly related to this mission.

CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
@*TO at Tactical*: Transport to the Captain's location.

Etna_Morex says:
CSO: Not that I recall. Sorry I cannot be more helpful.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
@Self: I still say it is Vulcan.

CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
@XO: Yes sir, the Trill is being transported to the Captain’s location now.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
Morex: It's okay. I'm just trying to find a tactical reason as to why someone would want to invade the symbionts.

ACTION: The Paula Greene transports the Trill to the Caves.

CO_Capt_Youngblood says:
::Sees the new arrival and pulls his phaser.:: Trill: Freeze!

XO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@CTO/CEO: And both of you, for the last time, call me ma'am!  ::Mutters something about the males of every species and enters the caves.::

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
@XO: Yes Ma'am!

Etna_Morex says:
::Notices the Trill who just appeared in the caves.:: Jonas: Jonas?! You are not welcomed here!
