Host CO_Kalla says:
::At airlock 40.::

OPS_Rogers says:
::Whistling that "Whistle while you work" tune from Snow White::

ACTION: The interior of the IKS Ghost hums to life as the crew enters; symbols of the Imperial Klingon Empire are everywhere

CEO_Rogers says:
EO: I just realized, now I can say I've done something my mum hasn’t.... up until now everything I've done in Starfleet can reflect back on at least some small thing my mother did in her early years in Starfleet...

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Walks in.::

CEO_Rogers says:
::Laughs at the EO’s little joke::

XO_Miller says:

::Walks up behind XO:: XO: You asked me anything else I knew about the Orions earlier?

Host CO_Kalla says:
::TL arrives, Kalla enters.:: TL: Bridge.

EO_Briaire says:
::Smiles::  CEO: I'm sure you will have quite a story to tell her when we get back from this mission... ::Catches up with the CEO::

CSO_Sketek says:
::In TL::

OPS_Rogers says:
XO: Yes, sir. Just a little nervous with all this Klingon stuff here. I'll get used to it.

Host Jade_Stone says:
<Sec> ::Watches as the last of the crew entered the Ghost.  Enters an area and hits him COMM button::

XO_Miller says:
CIV:  Yes.  Have you found anything new?

Host CO_Kalla says:
CIV: I appreciate your earlier statement about the limited access to information. You have done well, I believe.

FCO_Durron says:
::Gets in the TL with the CO::

XO_Miller says:
::Chuckles::  OPS:  Don't worry, unlike Klingons the ship won't bite.

CTO_Senek says:
::Waits for the TL to arrive to the bridge::

Host Jade_Stone says:
<Sec> ::His duty done, he leaves the docking ring for some coffee and donuts::

OPS_Rogers says:
::Laughs a little:: XO: That's comforting, sir.

Host ACTD_John_Sea says:
ACTION: The Bridge is designed for combat efficiency over living space concerns and is equipped with an elevated chair for the CO and a periscope

CSO_Sketek says:
CTO: I hope that the replicators can also produce tea instead of just blood wine.

CIV_Deimon says:
XO: Well, I can tell you what you already know without looking in the computer. The males are dominant in Orion culture and normally Orions are fairlysavage, but there a few, eh, nice ones. The females are said to be irresistible to the males of any culture, and as far as personality, it goes for them as for males. The Syndicate itself is a...

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Walks out onto the bridge and looks around.::

OPS_Rogers says:
::Finds his way to his station and accesses it::

CTO_Senek- says:
CSO: That would be preferable.

FCO_Durron says:
Walks on to bridge. Looks at the pack in his hand and gets back on the TL::

XO_Miller says:
CIV: A what, Wes?

CEO_Rogers says:
::Walks through the dank corridors of the BoP with the EO, making her way to engineering::

CIV_Deimon says:
XO: Criminal organization that actually didn't start with the Orions, well, a few were in there, but that's because the base was began here, and then the syndicate spread and has become large and factioned out, so that makes pinning down the leader etc a real neat trick, sometimes the factions fight. But always there is crime.

XO_Miller says:
CIV: Understood Wes. Excellent work.

FCO_Durron says:
TL: Deck 5

EO_Briaire says:
::Looks around at the corridor walls::  CEO: My god.. This place is a real dump..

CIV_Deimon says:
XO: As far as our faction, you already know why we're after them. They're a faction made of mostly Orions and Gorn and are called the Red Gemini. Like I said, all the factions and the wide spread of the Syndicate makes finding anything else out about them hard, So, that's all I've got for you.

EO_Briaire says:
CEO: I don't even want to imagine what Main Engineering looks like...

CIV_Deimon says:
XO: Thank you, Sir.

Host CO_Kalla says:
*FCO* Get back to the bridge ASAP.

CTO_Senek says:

TL: Bridge

XO_Miller says:
CIV:  Very well.  Just keep me apprised if you find anything else out.

OPS_Rogers says:
::Looks at the dagger at his console:: All: Anyone know what these daggers are for?

TO_AlThor says:
::Joins the CTO:: CTO: Do you know how to use this equipment?

Host CO_Kalla says:
All: Well, this is our ship now and for some time to come. You will all have to get to know your station as well as on the Andy. We are to pose as belonging on this vessel.

FCO_Durron says:
::Exits TL with pack and heads for his station::

CTO_Senek says:
TO: Basic information only.

CSO_Sketek says:
::Starts examining the science console::

CTO_Senek says:
TO: I've never used one of these before in real situations.

OPS_Rogers says:
::Sits down::

Host CO_Kalla says:
All: This mission will require all our skill and teamwork. I suggest you have a clear idea of your role and function on the Ghost.

TO_AlThor says:
CTO: Ah

XO_Miller says:
All:  I think it would be a good idea if you just took some time and got used to your surroundings and consoles.

FCO_Durron says:
::Sits down at the helm and puts his pack down next to him::

CTO_Senek says:
::Takes a look at the indicators and finds displays for internal sensors, short range sensors, shield grid, weapon systems etc.::

CIV_Deimon says:

Host CO_Kalla says:
XO: But I admit, it will take some getting used to.

CSO_Sketek says:
CO: Science department is ready for duty.

XO_Miller says:
::Grins::  CO:  No disagreement from me on that statement.

OPS_Rogers says:
::Getting personalized settings setup on his console::

Host CO_Kalla says:
CIV: I believe it would be a good idea if you acquainted yourself with the interior design of this vessel. If anyone has a question he/she can go to you.

Host ACTD_John_Sea says:
ACTION: The crew changes into their privateer clothes

EO_Briaire says:
::Still walking down some corridor and then climbing down a ladder before entering Main Engineering::

CIV_Deimon says:
CO: Ah, engineering, now you've got a job I can do.

FCO_Durron says:
XO: I am ready here.

OPS_Rogers says:
::Tugs at his clothes to get the seams on him correctly::

XO_Miller says:
::Nods to Ray::  FCO:  Understood.

CEO_Rogers says:
::Looks around Main Engineering.:: EO: Dark and dreary, just like the rest of the ship I suppose.

CIV_Deimon says:
::The first thing Deimon does is walk over to the replicator:: Self: I wonder if they changed the food packs, Klingon food makes me sick.

XO_Miller says:
CO:  Well, it's not my taste in clothing, but it works.

Host CO_Kalla says:
All: Anybody here with special skills in Klingon can assist those who do not understand it well.

Host ACTD_John_Sea says:
ACTION: The crew sees the Andromeda leaving the Starbase; it has been pressed into border patrol until the Ghost returns.

CTO_Senek says:
::Looks very out-of-place without his uniform::

EO_Briaire says:
CEO: Indeed...not much of a working place...

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Cannot really believe her own eyes as she sees the silver streak leaving the base.:: XO: No but taste is irrelevant.

CIV_Deimon says:
All/CO: Makes you wish Tigs was still here. ::Looking up from replicator::

FCO_Durron says:
::Stares at the Andy::

OPS_Rogers says:
::Watches the Andy pull away from the SB and hopes it isn't damaged::

EO_Briaire says:
::Walks to one of the engineering console and tries to activate the lighting of Main Engineering::

OPS_Rogers says:
::Looks at the CIV and wonders what's going on in his mind::

Host CO_Kalla says:
CIV: Certainly she would have not had problems with the language.

XO_Miller says:
OPS:  Will, how are things at your station?

Host Jade_Stone says:
ACTION: Dim lights activate in the bowels of engineering

CEO_Rogers says:
::Wanders around to get herself acquainted with the main functions, and notices what the EO is doing:: EO: I think the lights are already on...

CEO_Rogers says:
EO: Or maybe not...

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Walks up to the CO seat.:: OPS: Get us clearance to leave SB.

Host CO_Kalla says:
FCO: Lay in a course for Orion.

CIV_Deimon says:
Computer: Replicate... eh, whatever's good...

CEO_Rogers says:
EO: Not much better if you ask me...oh well, might as well live with it the best we can...

OPS_Rogers says:
XO: They're ok so far, sir. ::Wondering when he started on a first name basis with the XO:: CO: Aye, captain.

FCO_Durron says:
CO: Course laid in captain.

CIV_Deimon says:
<COMPUTER> Deimon: Specify.

OPS_Rogers says:

Host ACTD_John_Sea says:
<SB 50> Comm: IKS Ghost: You are cleared for departure

CEO_Rogers says:
::Pulls 2 small lamps from her bag:: EO: these should give off at least a bit more light than what’s in here

XO: Was the airlock securely closed?

CIV_Deimon says:
::Sees the computer displays a menu overhead... it reads Klingon food::

OPS_Rogers says:
COMM: SB50: Thank you, and have a nice day. CO: We're cleared for departure, captain.

CIV: Excellent idea.

EO_Briaire says:
CEO: Aaahhh...that should make a big difference..  ::Takes 1 of the lamps from the CEO and places it on one of the consoles and attaches it a power coupling and turns it on::

CTO_Senek says:
TO: I suggest that you familiarize yourself with the ship's targeting, weapon control and shield systems, just in case something goes wrong in the mission.

XO_Miller says:
CTO:  Understood.

Host CO_Kalla says:
FCO: Engage course to Orion. Warp 6.

CEO_Rogers says:

CO: I have to remind you that no cloaking device is untraceable.

Host Capt_Jade_Stone says:
@::Sits back in her command chair and smiles::

Host CO_Kalla says:
OPS: I assume our communicators are all functioning.,

CIV_Deimon says:

EO_Briaire says:
::Moves to one of the warp core control panels and checks the readings and nods at the CEO::  CEO: They do Ma'am....everything checks out...

CEO_Rogers says:
EO: Right...okay, lets get to work.

OPS_Rogers says:
CO: I believe so, captain, but the only way to know is test them when the computer is online.

Host CO_Kalla says:
CSO: Yes, I know. But orders call for us to go in cloaked.

Host ACTD_John_Sea says:
ACTION: With a technicolor of star lights, the Ghost enters warp space and crosses into Orion space.... leaving behind the Federation sentry ships at the border

EO_Briaire says:
CEO: Ma'am.... with your permission I would like to run a detailed diagnostic on the power distribution system, just to be on the safe side...

OPS_Rogers says:
CO: We could do it, but I'd have to go to the cargo bay to activate it, captain.

CEO_Rogers says:
::Nods:: EO: Yes, probably a good idea, go right ahead ensign

CSO_Sketek says:
CO: Sir, I'm detecting a fight in LRS. It's a Federation freighter convoy under attack.

CO: Aye, captain.

EO_Briaire says:
::Nods::  CEO: Aye, Ma'am..  ::Brings up the power distribution system and begins dividing it into several separate sectors::

CSO_Sketek says:
CO: They are not doing well.

XO_Miller says:
OPS: See if you can hail them.

OPS_Rogers says:
XO: Aye, sir. ::Hails the federation ships::

Host ACTD_John_Sea says:
<SS Runner> *This is the SS Runner to any ships, mayday, mayday*

CEO_Rogers says:
::Works on verifying that all engineering systems are at top working efficiency::

Host CO_Kalla says:
OPS: Belay that order.

CTO_Senek says:
::Scans for the attacking ships::

CIV_Deimon says:
XO: What if we're detected? We've got to get them help, but if we de-cloak and help them, they could pass word to the syndicate and we're dead.

OPS_Rogers says:
CO: Aye, captain. We are receiving a distress call from the SS Runner.

CTO_Senek says:
TO: Try to get more information on the attackers.

XO_Miller says:
CIV:  I said nothing about de-cloaking.

Host Capt_Jade_Stone says:
@::Adjusts course and speed to match the Ghost's and wonders if they will investigate::

CSO_Sketek says:
CO: There are total five Federation freighters there each carrying about 1000 people.

FCO_Durron says:
::Glances at the CO::

TO_AlThor says:
::Scans the attacking ships::

CIV_Deimon says:
XO: But... sending out a signal... we could keep from being detected, but then again, it's likely they'd detect our signal...

Host CO_Kalla says:
XO: It is hardly advisable for us to show too much sympathy in this matter. OPS: Is there a way to signal Starbase without being heard by others?

EO_Briaire says:
::Begins analyzing the first sector of the power distribution system::

OPS_Rogers says:
CO: I could encrypt a message, but other than that I don't think so.

CEO_Rogers says:
::Works first on the warp core::

OPS_Rogers says:
CO: Would you like for me to encrypt a message?

Host CO_Kalla says:
OPS; No wait can we hail the attackers?

CIV_Deimon says:
::Nearly chokes at hearing the CO say that::

OPS_Rogers says:
CO: We could hail the attackers, but I don't believe that is advisable unless you want to break our cover, Captain.

CEO_Rogers says:
::Wants to make sure this lug of a ship can handle the highest warp possible::

XO_Miller says:
OPS:  And how would that be breaking our cover?  We could let them believe we are doing what's in their best interests.

TO_AlThor says:
XO: The attackers are 3 birds of prey, sir

Host CO_Kalla says:
OPS: We could - in a friendly pirate-to-pirate manner - warn them that a Federation starship is headed their way. ::Tries to look innocent.::

CIV_Deimon says:
Self: Oh boy...

OPS_Rogers says:
CO/XO: Perhaps that could work. Would you like for me to relay the message?
