Host ACTD_John_Sea says:
Continue USS Andromeda " The Gaia Agenda" Part 2 10107.29.

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Sits in her ready room.:: *XO*, *CSO*: Would you join me, please.

XO_Miller says:
::Gets up and heads to the Captain's ready room.::  CTO:  Senek, you have the bridge.

CSO_Sketek says:
*CO*: On my way.

XO_Miller says:
*CO*:  On my way.

CIV_Deimon says:
::Stepping out of cargo bay 2, Deimon rubs his eyes, after finishing his last run over the vehicles and looks down at the padd, all the files for each of the vehicles are still running.::

CEO_Rogers says:
::Sitting in Engineering rubbing her head waiting for that Little Marine Engineer to show up...::

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Gets up and goes to the replicator.:: Computer: One liter of water, five degrees  and three glasses.

XO_Miller says:
::Stands outside the ready room door and chimes the bell.::

Host ACTD_John_Sea says:
Action: The Marines are instructed in conservation and allocating resources, and the Main Engineering Circuit Boards begin to relax from their tantrum.

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Calls out.:: Enter!

CTO_Senek says:
::Nods to XO and continues analyzing the satellite orbits.::

XO_Miller says:
::Enters the Ready Room.::

CSO_Sketek says:
::Arrives in front of the ready room and enter after the XO.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Gets the tray and puts it on the table, sits down.:: XO, CSO: Sit down, gentlemen.

XO_Miller says:
::Takes a seat.::

CIV_Deimon says:
::Walking through the corridor a security officer who had checked the inventories handed him a report, all the equipment was loaded and packed for the crew, he signs it and hands it back the ensign, though noting to himself he'll go over it himself later.::

CSO_Sketek says:
::Sits down.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
CSO: So what have you found out about the planet?

CSO_Sketek says:
CO: Class-M planet, large oceans and land masses, magnetic storms that prevent beaming.

CEO_Rogers says:
::Checks through the power reports.::

XO_Miller says:
::Listens as Sketek gives his report.::

FCO_Durron says:
CTO: The flight plan has been logged and harmonized with the Liberator's.

CIV_Deimon says:
<Col Brackman>::Lies back in his cot, looking over the final reports and noting things are beginning to get settled.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Pours three glasses of water while she listens.::

CSO_Sketek says:
CO: The colony itself is near the equator. The best way to advance is to drop to sea level and advance above oceans since they can't be trapped with mines.

CTO_Senek says:
FCO: Good.

CSO_Sketek says:
CO: The climate is tropical and there are weather anomalies like heavy winds.

CIV_Deimon says:
::Steps onto the turbolift.:: TL: Deck 1.

XO_Miller says:
CSO:  Have you pinpointed the best place for a landing zone?

CSO_Sketek says:
CO: That's about relevant information I could find from the CSO of USS Curious.

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Pushes the glasses to CSO and XO.::

CEO_Rogers says:
::Remembers the junction Circuit Board near CB2, and grabs an engineering kit, and heads back down there to fix/replace it.::

XO_Miller says:
::Takes the water and drinks.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
CSO: So our best approach would be to destroy the planetary defenses, go down and swim ::Shivers.:: ashore?

CSO_Sketek says:
XO: That is more a question of strategy which is not my specialty but I can provide maps of the planet.

FCO_Durron says:
::Begins looking over a PADD of all the vessels aboard.::

CEO_Rogers says:
::Enters the TL, and orders it to CB2.::

XO_Miller says:
CSO:  Understood.

Lt_More says:
::Stands at a view port and watches the Scimitar's two escort peregrines regroup with the Kuroc.::

CSO_Sketek says:
CO: Well, we can't advance by swimming. Some kind of a low flying craft or a small boat would be preferred.

CIV_Deimon says:
::Steps out onto the bridge and takes a survey of what's going on, he steps over to an empty science station and takes a seat, checking the inventory by looking that everything had been replicated in the right numbers.::

Lt_More says:
::Doesn’t like leaving his ship behind, but can't wait to see his wife again.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
CSO: So the dinghies Lt. Deimon has obtained will be useful?

CSO_Sketek says:
CO: Most likely.

XO_Miller says:
CO:  Captain, you look a little relieved to hear that.  ::Smiles.::

CEO_Rogers says:
::Steps out of the turbolift near cargo bay 2 and goes to the Circuit Board that is shut.::

Lt_More says:
::Begins the brisk walk down to the station’s transporter room.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Glances at XO but makes no comment as she is suddenly busy drinking her water.:: CSO, XO: We have just learned from SFI that we need to go down very quickly as the surface-to-air defenses may still be active.

Lt_More says:
::Nods to the Ensign there and tells him to begin preparations to beam him over to the USS Andromeda.::

Lt_More says:
::Taps his badge.::

XO_Miller says:
::Nods.::  CO:  Understood.

CIV_Deimon says:
::Having approved the numbers, he leans back in his chair and turns to look over the bridge, in the back his mind, though of wonderment about what he'd be doing if he hadn't gone to Earth and was still CTO here.::

CSO_Sketek says:
::Drinking the glass of water.::

Host ACTD_John_Sea says:
Action: The Circuit Board near Cargo Bay 2 is cracked in half, smells of sulfur and fused wires, and is scorched with soot, as is the connections it plugs into.

Host CO_Kalla says:
CSO, XO: Suggestions for a rapid descent. Will a shuttle craft do?

Lt_More says:
*Andy Bridge*: USS Andromeda, this is observer Lieutenant Adam More, on special service to from the Scimitar, permission to come aboard?

CTO_Senek says:
*CO*: A certain Lt. More is asking for a permission to come aboard.

CSO_Sketek says:
CO: The biggest problem is that we aren't transporting just an away team of a couple of officers. We need to transport the 1000 marines as well.

CEO_Rogers says:
::Her nose wrinkles up as she smells the putrid stench, and gets to work removing the parts from the board.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Hears CTO.:: *CTO*: Lieutenant Adam More of the Scimitar?

XO_Miller says:
CSO:  What can we use with a lot of capacity?

CTO_Senek says:
*CO*: Yes sir.

CIV_Deimon says:
::Hearing the communication recalls something from Captain Kalla's personal file, which he'd looked over as well as for the rest of the crew, but can't quite remember what it is.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
CSO: One thing at a time. I think we should get a skeleton crew down as paratroopers first. They can set up a base to transport everyone else down. Maybe we can even beam some of them down, once we have a camp.

CSO_Sketek says:
XO: Of course the shuttle personnel recommendations are very conservative. It's a possibility to pack them really full of people and make a rapid descent in a few minutes.

Host ACTD_John_Sea says:
Action: The Circuit Board is stubborn and refuses to come out, it is literally fused with the wall behind it due to melting from the overload.

Host CO_Kalla says:
*CTO*: Grant him permission. I will see him shortly.

CTO_Senek says:
*CO*: Aye sir.

CTO_Senek says:
*Lt. More* You have permission to come aboard.

XO_Miller says:
CSO:  I'm sure we'll have to make some modifications to the shuttles.

Lt_More says:
::Gets up on the transporter pad, anticipating the response.::

CIV_Deimon says:
::Looks over to the ready room and wonders what's going on in there, deciding his skills could be better used elsewhere, and that the equipment has been checked enough times, stands and steps toward the turbolift.::

Lt_More says:
*CTO*: Thank you.

Lt_More says:
::Nods to the Ensign:: Ensign: Energize.

CSO_Sketek says:
CO: The beaming option would give us nearly unlimited transport options.

CTO_Senek says:
FCO: I've been thinking about a certain battle plan, but if it is going to work I need to coordinate it closely with you. I need you to plan our flight sequence in the assault in advance. Preferably it would consist of several passes of the planet in slow warp speed. Is that possible?

Lt_More says:
::Arrives on the Andromeda.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
CSO: Please check if that would be possible. XO: Have the shuttles altered to take us down as quickly as possible.

Lt_More says:
::Looks around.::

XO_Miller says:
CSO:  I thought you stated the magnetic storms prevented beaming.

Lt_More says:
::Nods to the Chief at the transporter control.::

CTO_Senek says:
*Lt. More*: Captain Kalla will be coming to meet you soon.

CEO_Rogers says:
::Pulls out a small laser torch from the kit and uses it to cut away at the board.::

FCO_Durron says:
CTO: Warp in a solar system is highly dangerous.

CSO_Sketek says:
XO: Yes, that's the present assumption. I was just speculating if science or engineering could find a way around it. We can't count on that, though.

Host ACTD_John_Sea says:
<Starfleet JAG> *Captain Kalla*: This is Starfleet JAG, we are asserting jurisdiction over your prisoner and wish him transferred to the Station.

XO_Miller says:
CO:  Aye, Captain.

Lt_More says:
*CTO*: Acknowledged, I'll wait in the transporter room for her. More out.

XO_Miller says:
CSO:  Understood.  So we'll just assume that the shuttles are our best bet.

CSO_Sketek says:
XO: Yep.

FCO_Durron says:
CTO: Remember what happened when the CSO tried that in the Wraith system?

Host CO_Kalla says:
XO. CSO: I was thinking of asking Mr Deimon to organize the actual paratroop part of the mission. But know I don't know if we need it.

CTO_Senek says:
FCO: Understood... high impulse is enough then, but plan an evasive pattern in advance as well.

CEO_Rogers says:
::Pulls at the board that’s now been cut away, and hopefully succeeds.::

XO_Miller says:
CO:  Well, we can have him organize it just in case.

CTO_Senek says:
FCO: Anyway, in order to have maximum accuracy with our torpedoes I need to know our flight plan in advance.

FCO_Durron says:
CTO: I am not saying it is impossible I might be able to pull it off but I would rather not risk it.

Host CO_Kalla says:
CSO, XO: I have better deal with JAG now.

CIV_Deimon says:
::Stands in the turbolift a minute, thinking about the various things going on on the ship, curious about each one, because he knows he's missing things in each event, but right now, isn't sure where he should head... and then remembers the spy, and wonders if it would be possible for him to investigate.::

Lt_More says:
::Gets off the pad and  pulls out his padd, with deck plans of the standard Ambassador class vessel.::

Host ACTD_John_Sea says:
Action: The circuit board comes away in a pile of melted metal which oozes onto the floor.

XO_Miller says:
::Stands up.::  CO:  Understood.  Anything further?

FCO_Durron says:
CTO: Aye, I have a sketchy set of evasives laid out.  I'll try to fill them out some more and then send them over to you.

CIV_Deimon says:
*CO*: Deimon to Kalla. I read in one of your reports about some kind of spy, acting as a Starfleet Security agent, I was wondering if I might be able to talk to him... ::wonders exactly what is currently being done about him.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
XO: Report to me when you know if we can actually use the shuttles to take us the whole way, and otherwise see if Mr Deimon has got all the equipment we need.

Host CO_Kalla says:
CSO, XO: Any questions?

CTO_Senek says:
FCO: Thank you.

CSO_Sketek says:
CO: No questions.

XO_Miller says:
CO:  No further questions Captain.

Host CO_Kalla says:
*CIV*: Yes we need to talk about him now. ::Gets up.:: CSO, XO: That will be all for now then.

CEO_Rogers says:
::Sticks out her tongue and ignores that for the time being, and continues to remove the smaller bits of metal that are still stuck to the hollow where the circuit board was...::

CSO_Sketek says:
::Gets up and takes a few steps to the ready room door.::

CTO_Senek says:
::Plans the torpedo trajectories as soon as the flight plan is ready.::

XO_Miller says:
::Gets up, exits the ready room and heads out onto the bridge.::

FCO_Durron says:
::Doesn't like to plan evasive maneuvers this far in advance but has decided long ago that this is something wise, so he starts filling out the evasives.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
CSO: Yes, Mr Sketek.

Host ACTD_John_Sea says:
<JAG> *Captain Kalla*: Be advised we are asserting jurisdiction immediately and have an injunction forbidding any of your crew from interrogating him.

CSO_Sketek says:
CO: Excuse me?

XO_Miller says:
FCO:  I need you to see if you can make any modifications to the shuttles for preparing for a rapid descent.

Host CO_Kalla says:
*Lt. More*: Meet me in the brig. ::Leaves the ready room.:: CSO: Nothing, I thought you wanted something more. ::Walks to the turbolift..:: XO: You have the bridge.

Host ACTD_John_Sea says:
Action: Little pieces of the circuit board clang about on the floor in random patterns, the power hasn’t been shut off here so some loose plasma wires are sparking.

CSO_Sketek says:
::Leaves the ready room and arrives at the bridge.::

Lt_More says:
::Hears his badge and raises an eyebrow.::

CTO_Senek says:
XO: I'd like to brief you on my battle plan, sir.

CIV_Deimon says:
TL: Brig ::Assumes the Captain meant her response as a yes.::

FCO_Durron says:
XO: I think that might be possible.  I am finishing up the evasives for use in system, then I'll get right on it.

Lt_More says:
Chief: which way to the brig?

Host CO_Kalla says:
::TL arrives and Kalla steps in.:: CIV: Mr Deimon, good. Computer: Brig.

XO_Miller says:
FCO:  Understood.  CTO:  Go ahead, Senek.

CIV_Deimon says:
CO: Captain. ::Nods.::

CSO_Sketek says:
::Also listening to CTO.::

CEO_Rogers says:
*EO Sikuna*: Ms Sikuna could you please shut the power off to the main junction circuit board near Cargo Bay 2?

Host JAG_Balance says:
::Waiting outside the brig.::

CTO_Senek says:
XO: I have asked FCO to lay in our flight plan and evasive patterns in the system.

FCO_Durron says:
::Types out the last few evasives adding a little spin on the end and transfers them to the CTO.::  CTO: Here are the evasives you asked for.

Host CO_Kalla says:
CIV: The problem is. We have the prisoner, but JAG forbids any of my crew to interrogate him. Are you one of my crew, technically speaking?

CEO_Rogers says:
<EO Sikuna> *CEO*: Yes, Ma'am, doing so right away - do you need any help? I can come down there if you want me too.

CTO_Senek says:
XO: And as we know the exact locations of the defensive satellites...

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Remembers something.:: *XO*: Give me an idea of when we can take off.

Lt_More says:
::Hears directions and notes them... deck 36?::

XO_Miller says:
::Takes his seat and brings up the information on his console.::

FCO_Durron says:
::Types out something on a PADD.::

Lt_More says:
::Goes out of the transporter room and makes his way to the main brig.::

CEO_Rogers says:
*EO Sikuna*: Thank you Ensign... no, I don't think I need any help right now - but I'll call you if I do.

Lt_More says:
::Steps in a turbolift.::

CTO_Senek says:
XO: I can plan in advance when I can launch a torpedo and I can even guide it to home in to its target without even using targeting sensors..

Lt_More says:
Self: Deck 36!? How big is this ship?

CIV_Deimon says:
CO: Technically speaking, I am working for Starfleet Security, I've simply volunteered to report data from here after some very interesting incidents before you came aboard.

Host CO_Kalla says:
::The turbolift doors open and they step out outside the brig.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
CIV: Excellent.

Lt_More says:
::Arrives on deck 36.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
CIV: You will interrogate the prisoner and get all information you can from him. I assume you read my report on his attempt at drugging me.

Lt_More says:
::Makes his way to the brig.::

XO_Miller says:
CTO:  Nice work.

CIV_Deimon says:
CO: Captain, what are your views of this guy. I mean, where is he from? Speculation about it anyway...

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Looks around to see if the JAG man is there.::

Lt_More says:
::Waits outside, not sure whether to go in or not.::

CIV_Deimon says:
CO: And yes, I read the report, it's had me most... concerned.

XO_Miller says:
*CEO*:  How soon before the repairs are made to the circuit board?

CTO_Senek says:
::Continues planning the torpedo trajectories.::

Lt_More says:
::Steps through the doors cautiously... and sees his wife.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
CIV: That is irrelevant. He is vague but very direct not the most intelligent spy I have ever come across. However, he works fast.

FCO_Durron says:
XO: If you will excuse me I would like to run some tests on modifications to the shuttles you mentioned in the Holodeck.

Host JAG_Balance says:
::Sees Captain Kalla.:: Captain, I am ready to take charge of my prisoner. ::Presents her with paperwork and a court order forbidding any Andromeda personnel to obstruct as well.::

XO_Miller says:
CTO:  Anything further Senek?

CIV_Deimon says:
::Looks at the man who just entered curiously and looks to Kalla.:: CO:JAG?

CTO_Senek says:
XO: No, sir.

XO_Miller says:
::Nods at Durron.::

CEO_Rogers says:
*XO* I'm still removing the damaged parts Sir, It may take a while more before I'm finished.

FCO_Durron says:
XO: Thank you, sir.

XO_Miller says:
CTO:  Thank you, Senek.  Again, nice work.

Host JAG_Balance says:
Action: Two Starfleet Marshals are standing with the JAG Officer.

CTO_Senek says:
XO: Thank you, sir.

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Raises her head and looks at the JAG man down her nose.:: JAG: Yes, well, I doubt that pertains to SF Security personnel.

Lt_More says:
::Wonders what he has walked in on, and realizing Kalla is not aware of him.::

FCO_Durron says:
::Enters the turbolift.:: TL: Deck 8.

CSO_Sketek says:
CTO: I can relay geographical data to you of the planet for you to be able to make an efficient attack route.

Lt_More says:
~~~My love....~~~

CIV_Deimon says:
::Begins pulling an identification out of his back pocket.::

XO_Miller says:
*CEO*:  Can I get an estimated timeframe?

Lt_More says:
::Waits in the background while his wife converses.::

CTO_Senek says:
CSO: Do you have the information on their defense systems as well?

Host JAG_Balance says:
Captain Kalla: This Court Order pertains to all Andromeda personnel, Mr Deimon is Andromeda personnel.

CIV_Deimon says:
::Steps forward at hearing Kalla's assumed cue and holds up the identification.:: JAG Balance: I'm Wes Deimon, Starfleet Security. I am currently reporting on the Andromeda.

CSO_Sketek says:
CTO: No, I don't have information on the ground defenses.

FCO_Durron says:
::Arrives on deck 8 and walks to holodeck 2, knowing holodeck 1 is being used for vehicle demonstrations.::

CEO_Rogers says:
::Thinks... the board's damaged sections need to be removed, messes cleaned up, and parts replicated and re-installed.:: *XO*: about an hour to two hours I would think, Sir.

CTO_Senek says:
CSO: Understood. Anyway, the geographical data will surely be helpful.

XO_Miller says:
*CEO*:  Acknowledged.

XO_Miller says:
*CO*:  Captain, estimated time of departure is about two hours.

CIV_Deimon says:
::Awaits Balance's reply.::

CSO_Sketek says:
::Forwards the map to CTO's console.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
*XO*: Good.

CTO_Senek says:
CSO: Thank you. ::Looks at the map.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
JAG: As I said, I doubt if your orders pertain to SF Security personnel.

CEO_Rogers says:
::Continues her work at a steady pace.:: *EO Sikuna* Could you replicate some replacements for this circuit board and bring them down here?

Host CO_Kalla says:
CIV: I assume you would like to interrogate the prisoner.

CIV_Deimon says:
CO: I would...

CEO_Rogers says:
<EO Sikuna> *CEO*: Will do, ma'am.

FCO_Durron says:
Computer: Access schematics for a type 6 shuttlecraft.

XO_Miller says:
::Brings up and begins reviewing places for a landing zone.::

Host JAG_Balance says:
Captain: They do indeed, if you like I can arrest anyone who attempts to interrogate him, and you can fight it out in the courts as your ship leaves on this mission.

CEO_Rogers says:
<EO Sikuna> ::Replicates all the necessary components needed to replace the circuit board.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Glares at JAG.:: JAG: How about if you are allowed to witness the interrogation?

CTO_Senek says:
::Starts to plan a route for the away team.::

Host JAG_Balance says:
Captain: You may glare all you like I am asserting jurisdiction immediately.

CTO_Senek says:
::Makes the route go through some unexpected places, where the defenses will most probably be weak but the terrain may be rough.::

CIV_Deimon says:
JAG: Look, I have authorization from Starfleet Security to perform any investigation on this ship I see fit, and I want to know what's got you so worried that Starfleet Security can't even see it.

CEO_Rogers says:
::Cleans up the melty metal that came out when she removed the board, and puts it into container so it might be salvaged for later uses.::

Lt_More says:
::Raises an eyebrow and keeps quiet, while wondering about the Andromeda's last mission.::

Host JAG_Balance says:
Deimon: I have a court order. Now, step aside.

CIV_Deimon says:
JAG: Who made the order?

XO_Miller says:
CSO/CTO:  I'm trying to get a fix on the best possible places for the landing zone.  I'm sending you both over some possibilities.  Let me know if any of them are feasible or not.

Host CO_Kalla says:
JAG: How about you interrogating the prisoner here?

CSO_Sketek says:
XO: Okay.

CTO_Senek says:
XO: Yes sir.

Host CO_Kalla says:
JAG: You see. There is also personnel on this ship which is not my personnel.

Host JAG_Balance says:
::Frustrated.:: Captain: I am asserting exclusive jurisdiction, are you denying me this ?

CIV_Deimon says:
:Looks to the captain and wishes he could talk to her, he's getting rather nervous, he knows something isn't right.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
JAG: No I am not denying you anything. I am trying to find a compromise to this situation. We are embarking on a rather dangerous mission which this man was very interested in. Surely you understand my situation, too.

FCO_Durron says:
::Begins making modifications to the holographic shuttlecraft so that it can survive a rapid descent.::

CEO_Rogers says:
<EO Sikuna> *CEO*: I'm bring the replicated components down now, ma'am.

Host JAG_Balance says:
Captain: This is a lawful warrant, now, stand aside.

CIV_Deimon says:
JAG: May I see the warrant?

Host JAG_Balance says:
Action: The Starfleet Marshal lowers the forcefield.

CEO_Rogers says:
*EO Sikuna*: Thank you, Ensign.

Host CO_Kalla says:
JAG: And if we were to verify it with SFC?

Host JAG_Balance says:
::Presents warrant to CIV.::

CIV_Deimon says:
::Begins to read it thoroughly.::

CEO_Rogers says:
<EO Sikuna> ::Steps into a turbolift with another EO who is helping bring down the new board and new components.::

Host JAG_Balance says:
Captain: You may challenge it at your leisure.

Host CO_Kalla says:
CIV: Is it in order?

XO_Miller says:
*FCO*:  How are the modifications coming, Mr. Durron?

CSO_Sketek says:
::Doing weather simulations on possible landing zones.::

CIV_Deimon says:
CO: It seems real. ::Continues to read.::

CEO_Rogers says:
<EO Sikuna> ::She and the second EO step out of the turbolift near cargo bay 2 and make their way to the CEO with the replicated items.:: CEO: Here we are Ma'am, a new board, and new components to install it with. ::Smiles.::

Lt_More says:
::Begins pacing up and down.::

Host JAG_Balance says:
Action: The Marshall makes the arrest and begins to leave.

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Turns around and blinks at More.::

Lt_More says:
::Places his duffel bag on the floor and wonders why Kalla is so adamant about questioning the prisoner.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Decides.:: JAG: I have no choice but to let you leave with the prisoner. However, be warned I will complain about this stiff-necked attitude to a superior officer.

Lt_More says:
::Guess he will find out later.::

Host JAG_Balance says:
Captain: You are at liberty to do so. ::Hands her his card.::

CIV_Deimon says:
::Hands back the warrant.:: JAG: This should be a Starfleet Security operation, why are you performing this investigation?

FCO_Durron says:
*XO*: Slowly, I think I might have an idea of what we'll need to do but it will take me a while to get it workable.

Lt_More says:
::Brings his gaze to Kalla's and smiles warmly.::

Host JAG_Balance says:
CIV: I don't answer to you, and you don't need to know.

CEO_Rogers says:
EO Sikuna: Thank you Sikuna, could you stay here and help me install it? - EO Balan: You may return to Engineering and be in charge there.

CTO_Senek says:
::Sees which of the landing zones are easily accessible; those which are least accessible are probably also the least defended.::

CEO_Rogers says:
<EO Balan> CEO: Yes ma'am. ::Walks back to the turbolift.::

CIV_Deimon says:
JAG: Starfleet bylaws say that before a prisoner may be removed a ship investigation may be presented, why is this law being bypassed?

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Raises an eyebrow.:: JAG: Get gone, I have no more time to waste on you. CIV: See them off the ship.

XO_Miller says:
*FCO*:  Understood.  I also want to make sure the Perseus is used for the senior officers of this ship.

CIV_Deimon says:
::Steps back and looks angrily at the JAG.::

CEO_Rogers says:
<EO Sikuna> CEO: Yes, of course, where shall we start?

Lt_More says:
::Shoves his pad in his multipocketed SF-starfighter corps issue pants.::

FCO_Durron says:
*XO*: Of course, sir.

XO_Miller says:
::Starts to wonder what is going on down in the Brig.::  *CO*:  Everything okay down there, Captain?

Host CO_Kalla says:
*XO*: Well, no one has got hurt, if that's what you mean, Commander.

Host JAG_Balance says:
Action: The Marshals and the JAG Officer leave.

Host JAG_Balance says:
Action: The CEO successfully repairs the panel.

FCO_Durron says:
::Thinks for a second and tries to find a way to increase the heat shielding.::

CIV_Deimon says:
::Follows behind, following his order to see them off the ship and wonders if the JAG officer is going to answer his question.::

XO_Miller says:
::Is relieved.::  *CO*:  Understood.

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Turns around to More.:: Adam: Welcome aboard.

CEO_Rogers says:
EO Sikuna: Good work, Ensign, *XO*: Repairs to the panel are finished, sir - took less time than I though it would.

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Gives him a hug now that they are alone.::

FCO_Durron says:
::Tries to increase the power to the main shield and the shield grid overloads.::

Lt_More says:
::Nods at the CO and hugs his wife then steps back, and at attention.::

XO_Miller says:
CSO/CTO:  Do any of those landing zones I sent you work for any reason?

Lt_More says:
::Pulls out a padd out of the pants.::

Lt_More says:
::Hands them to his wife.::

Lt_More says:
CO: My orders, ma'am.

CIV_Deimon says:
::As they walk out the airlock Deimon is tempted to yell a legitimate and legal threat.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Starts walking towards the TL, takes the padd.:: Adam: Give them to me in your own words.

Lt_More says:
::Smiles back at his wife, not really expecting a smile from the Vulcan, but knows the sentiment is there.::

CSO_Sketek says:
XO: I can say which are best when considering the climate, but I really can't say what's the strategically best way.

FCO_Durron says:
::Feels a bit flustered and worried about the mission.::

CIV_Deimon says:
::Mutters random curses in languages including Federation Standard as he steps onto a turbolift.::

XO_Miller says:
CSO:  Coordinate with Senek on the strategy.

CIV_Deimon says:
TL: Deck 1! ::Is feeling very tense and angry.::

Lt_More says:
CO: On behalf of the Starfleet Flight Corps squadron. ::Motions to the duty uniform of the corps, which is exactly like SF, just with more pockets, and more wear and tearable.::

FCO_Durron says:
Computer: Reset shield grid on holographic shuttlecraft.::

Lt_More says:
CO: I have been assigned to the Andromeda temporarily, as an observer.

Host JAG_Balance says:
<Starbase>Comm: USS Andromeda: Your equipment and personnel are fully loaded and you are clear to depart.

Lt_More says:
CO: I can observe, suggest things, and advise, but am unable to issue orders.

Host CO_Kalla says:
::TL arrives. they step in.:: Computer: Bridge. Adam: Observer. Hmmm, we may get a bit more out of that. 

CSO_Sketek says:
CTO: I can give you some data on the environmental simulations and estimates how long does it take to travel between points but the strategy is really up to you.

XO_Miller says:
Comm:  Starbase:  Acknowledged.

Lt_More says:
CO: I've been briefed on the mission ahead. ::Steps in::

CTO_Senek says:
CSO: We cannot take a too easy route because they are the most defended ones. I suggest that we take the hardest possible route.

XO_Miller says:
*CEO*:  Status on repairs?

Lt_More says:
CO: Big ship, and she's all yours... ::Smiles broadly.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
Adam: Have you still got experience in leading that little squadron of yours? ::TL Arrives.::

Lt_More says:
CO: Haven’t had the need for the peregrines aboard the Scimi in over five months, but yes of course.

CTO_Senek says:
CSO: It will of course be difficult traveling, but I'll rather climb mountains than get killed by a mine.

Host CO_Kalla says:
::They step out onto the bridge.:: Adam: Well, I'm working on a couple ideas. XO: Situation?

XO_Miller says:
CO:  We have been cleared to depart.  Just waiting on word from Lt. Rogers.

Lt_More says:
CO: ::Nods and looks around the bridge.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
Adam: Right now, why don't you go get your kit placed in ... our... quarters. You may find them a bit cramped, but let's see what we can do about that.

Lt_More says:
::Is surprised how much she resembles the Leningrad.::

CSO_Sketek says:
CTO: I agree with that but remember that we aren't transporting just a small away team but a big group of marines. The marines of course know how to advance in nature.

XO_Miller says:
CO:  Repairs are complete.  Ready to depart.

CIV_Deimon says:
TL: Halt... Deck 2.

Lt_More says:
CO: Understood, I'll be back before you know it.

FCO_Durron says:
*CEO*: I know you are busy with repairs and all but I am trying to modify a shuttlecraft on the holodeck if you don't mind could you spare an EO to help? I would appreciate it.

Lt_More says:
::Gets back into the turbolift.:: TL: Commanding Officer’s quarters.

CIV_Deimon says:
::The turbolift, being on deck 3 already stops at deck 2, and Deimon steps off and makes his way to his quarters.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
XO: Excellent. ::Walks over to the viewscreen.:: *Shipwide* We have been cleared for departure and will now leave starbase.

CIV_Deimon says:
::Sits down at his desk, he sighs and looks at the computer screen on his desk.::

CTO_Senek says:
CSO: I almost forgot the marines... So their vehicles must be able to come with us.

CEO_Rogers says:
*FCO* I can come myself - or I can send EO Sikuna - whichever - I've finished repairs on the circuit board.

Host CO_Kalla says:
XO: Please take helm, clear our moorings and take us out at 1/4 impulse.

Lt_More says:
::Arrives on the deck and makes his way reading door signs as he goes.::

CSO_Sketek says:
CTO: Yes. We can't take impossible routes.

XO_Miller says:
::Walks over to helm and has a seat.::  CO:  Moorings clear, 1/4 impulse.  Aye.

CTO_Senek says:
CSO: I'll take a look at the vehicle specifications and see what kind of terrain they can travel through.

CIV_Deimon says:
Computer: Open a channel to Admiral Sam Calvivici, Starfleet Security, Priority 1, Starfleet Encoded signal Trojan Horse 7, Authorization Deimon Quantum Omega 31.

Lt_More says:
::Arrives at the door to the quarters.::

FCO_Durron says:
*CEO*: Up to you.

CTO_Senek says:
::Sees how rough terrain the heaviest vehicles/equipment can travel in.::

XO_Miller says:
::Engages engines.::

Lt_More says:
Computer: Open doors to Captain Kalla's quarters, authorization, More Kalla alpha oh eight.

Host JAG_Balance says:
Action: The USS Andromeda glides out of the docking bay, its navigation lights begin to awaken and illuminate as the main impulse engines ignite.

Lt_More says:
::Enters the quarters, and dumps his small duffel bag.::

CIV_Deimon says:
::The screen pops up with a 40-year old man's face, his brown hair has the slightest hint of white on front.::

Lt_More says:
::Heads back up to the bridge in a turbolift.::

CIV_Deimon says:
<Admiral Callavici> COMM: Wes: What's wrong?

XO_Miller says:
::Brings the ship out of the docking bay and watches as the ship gets further from the Starbase.::

CTO_Senek says:
::Shows CSO the terrain types which the field artillery can travel through.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
XO: Set course for Gaia. Warp 9.

CEO_Rogers says:
*FCO* I'll come myself - EO Sikuna: you may return to Engineering and relive EO Balan of duty - I believe his shift ended about 15 minutes ago.

CIV_Deimon says:
COMM: Admiral: Sam, what's going on? We found a spy and JAG just took him, I want to know why.

CEO_Rogers says:
<EO Sikuna> CEO: Okay. ::Walks off.::

CIV_Deimon says:
<Admiral>COMM:Deimon:I don't know what your talking about... Just a moment... ::Offscreen someone hands him a padd.::

XO_Miller says:
CO:  Aye Captain. :: Sets course for Gaia, warp 9 and engages.::

CEO_Rogers says:
::Enters the turbolift and heads for the holodeck.::

Host JAG_Balance says:
Action: The Excelsior Refit Class, USS Liberator retracts its moorings, activates all weapons and shields and glides into formation with the Andromeda, its warp engines hum to life giving off a neon like color.

CSO_Sketek says:
CTO: Well, if we have to bring so heavy equipment, we really don't have a lot of choices.

FCO_Durron says:
::Looks evilly at the holographic replication of the type 6 and tries to think of something.::

CIV_Deimon says:
<Admiral>COMM:Wes, I just got the report, I don't know what's going on, this should be our operation in coordination with JAG, but they're taking everything upon themselves, I don't know, but, it's legal.

Host CO_Kalla says:
XO: I assume the Liberator is with us.

CIV_Deimon says:
COMM: Admiral: No, something isn't legal, and I want to know what it is.

XO_Miller says:
CO:  You're assumption is correct, Captain.

CTO_Senek says:
CSO: Unfortunately.

CEO_Rogers says:
::Steps out of the turbolift and walks down the hall and enters the holodeck.:: FCO: What can I help you with today?

Lt_More says:
::Arrives on the bridge and walks slowly over to the CO.::

CIV_Deimon says:
<Admiral>COMM: Look, Wes, something just came up, I'll see what I can do, but someone higher up than me has made this call, I'm sorry.

CIV_Deimon says:
COMM: Sam! You’re just going to let them do this!

CIV_Deimon says:
<Admiral>COMM: I don't have a choice...

XO_Miller says:
::Looks to see someone he doesn't recognize enter the bridge.::

CSO_Sketek says:
CTO: I think the best route is through the Southern valley, then.

Host CO_Kalla says:
XO: We will stay at warp nine for 12 hours, then go to warp 8. But I also assume that FCO Durron has programmed that into helm.

Lt_More says:
CO: Ma'am, where should I take position?

CIV_Deimon says:
::The transmission cuts off and Deimon angrily walks out of his quarters and heads for a turbolift.::

CTO_Senek says:
CSO: We can probably expect the heaviest defenses there... but it seems that we have no other choice.

XO_Miller says:
CO:  Correct Captain.

Host JAG_Balance says:
Action: Both starships enter warp space in formation, as a technicolor of light illuminates their starbows, on course for Gaia IV and adventure.

CSO_Sketek says:
CTO: That's why we bring the heaviest equipment.

Host CO_Kalla says:
Adam: Let me introduce you first. All: This is Lt. Adam More, FCO of the USS Scimitar, temporarily stationed to us as an observer. Adam also happens to be my husband.

CIV_Deimon says:
::Stepping out onto the bridge Deimon sits down at what is becoming his normal post, a normally empty science station and sighs.::

FCO_Durron says:
CEO: Oh...hi.. The XO ordered me to try and modify the shuttlecraft  for a speedy decent  and I am having trouble working around the atmospheric friction.

Lt_More says:
::Smiles. Sheepishly.:: All: Hello...

XO_Miller says:
::Stands up and walks over to Adam.::  Adam:  Nice to meet you.

CIV_Deimon says:
::Snaps his fingers and without thinking says out loud.:: Self: I knew there was something I couldn't remember...

CEO_Rogers says:
FCO: Oh, okay, let's see what we can do… ::Takes a seat at one of the holographic consoles and takes a look at what the FCO is doing.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
Adam: ::Points to XO.:: Meet our temporary FCO also known as my excellent XO Commander Jared Miller.

Lt_More says:
::Shakes his hand.:: XO: Pleased to meet you, sir.

XO_Miller says:
Adam:  FCO huh?  How about relieving me at helm.  ::Grins.::

CIV_Deimon says:
::With everything swimming in his head, and a hard adventure ahead of him, Deimon leans back in his chair:: Oh boy...

Host JAG_Balance says:
Pause Mission
