<<<<Resume Mission: "Idol Threats">>>>

CSO_Washudoin says:
:: Watching the sensors ::

XO_Danforth says:
:listening to the CNS and his explanations::

EO_Baggins says:
:: at the OPS station on the bridge ::

CSec_Powers says:
::Sitting with the Daimon, picking up the cards... and knowing they're about even on the money::

CTO_Mrlr says:
::at tactical finally figuring things out and wondering where that cute ensign went::

CMO_D`han says:
::on the lift on her way to operations::

Host CO_Claymore says:
EO: What's the status on the damage control teams?

CNS_Cook says:
Trennar: I do have a question, if you don't mind me asking?

Host Trennar says:
::Sitting in the conference room, consulting with the two followers who have studied the ancient texts the longest::

Host Trennar says:
CNS: Yes?

CMO_D`han says:
::enters operations, and looks for the guy in the red collar with the most pips::

CSO_Washudoin says:
:: Keeping on "eye" on the situation ::

Daimon_Akon says:
::holding up a hand for five card stud.  Takes three cards and puts them down:: CIV: I'll take three.

CSec_Powers says:
::Deals the Ferengi three cards from the top of the deck, then lays down two of his own and taking an equal number for himself::

Host CO_Claymore says:
::looks back to see who just entered Operations... notices it is a blue suit and decides it's a science person for the CSO::

CNS_Cook says:
Trennar: How can you be so sure that this idol is this great "gift" (for lack of better word) that you have been describing, I mean it seems that this idol has appeared before.

CMO_D`han says:
::walks up to Claymore:: CO: Ensign D'han reporting for duty, sir.

EO_Baggins says:
:: heres the CO and checks the sensors :: CO : Sir, they look to be in position

CTO_Mrlr says:
::looks up and gives the doc a grin and then goes back to monitoring the Romulans::

Host CO_Claymore says:
CMO: Duty? Do you have a copy of your orders?

CSec_Powers says:
<AlphaTeamLeader> *CSec*: Sir, evacuation of the civilian population is proceeding nicely.  We estimate only another half an hour before we should have everyone ready to load and leave... there are some full ships that can leave, should I give them clearance, sir?

Daimon_Akon says:
CIV: It's your call.

CMO_D`han says:
::hands him a PADD with her orders on it:: CO: Yes, sir.

Host Trennar says:
CNS: I must admit that the texts do not mention Khaless' message being shown to others, but it only makes sense that all should be warned of the end of days.  We wish to go to the idol and commune with it, to hear the message of Kahless.

CSec_Powers says:
::Sighs:: *ATL*: No one's allowed to disembark yet... until I get word from the Commanding Officer.  Tell them to hold off.. if they get antsy, send their messages to the XO.

Host CO_Claymore says:
::takes the PADD and reviews it:: CMO: Wow; CO, XO, CTO, and CMO in one day. Personnel may be slow but they do things in lumps. Welcome aboard.

CSec_Powers says:
::Lays several chips on the table, glancing over his cards once more::

CNS_Cook says:
Trennar: So your book describes nothing of what I have just described?

CMO_D`han says:
::smiles:: CO: Thank you. Things are looking pretty stressful out there. What would you like me to do first? Prepare sickbay?

XO_Danforth says:
CNS/Trennar:  If that's the case, is it possible that this isn't a message from Kahless at all?  Isn't that  a possibility?

Host Trennar says:
CNS: Um.  No.  Not exactly.  However, it is very descriptive of the location and timing of his message.  Those fit perfectly.  ::Looks proud, and his followers stand a bit straighter::

Host CO_Claymore says:
::resists the urge to scratch his head:: CMO: Sickbay is a good place to start.

CSec_Powers says:
<AlphaTeamLeader> ::Gets back to assigning people to ships, and dealing with irate captains and crews::

XO_Danforth says:
Trennar: What precisely does it say about the location and timing?  Is it written in modern terms or in another way?

Host Trennar says:
XO: Commander, let us go to our idol and then all questions will be answered.

Daimon_Akon says:
::looks at what the CIV put down and matched it:: CIV: I'll raise you. ::throws another two chips into the pot::

CMO_D`han says:
::sounds a bit eager:: CO: Very good. I'll get started right away. ::nods at the Catian CTO and smiles at her as she leaves::

CSec_Powers says:
::Calls his bet:: Akon: Show 'em.

XO_Danforth says:
::thinks to himself that letting them go to the idol doesn't sound like a good idea with the Romulans right out there::

CNS_Cook says:
Trennar: Sir, the species I saw was not Klingon at all, I am not sure what they are but they definitely weren’t Klingon. I believe that the idol is here for some other purpose, and when we figure out why it is here then and only then will it go away. It has a purpose and that is why it is here

CSO_Washudoin says:
:: Sets the computer to try and discover where the idol path came from, thinking about why it might have some here from there::

CMO_D`han says:
::gets in the lift and rides it to sickbay::

EO_Baggins says:
:: checks the OPS sensors checking on the damage control teams ::

Host Trennar says:
XO: It states that  "in the last days of the Empire, a message will be given to the faithful.  Kahless will send this message into the heavens when the planet below is named for the moon above."  Arcadia  ::points to the planet::  Arcadia.  ::Motions to enclose the station.::

Host CO_Claymore says:
::thinks a moment:: *XO*: Are you getting anywhere?

Daimon_Akon says:
CIV: If I understood correctly.. you must lay down your cards first. ::looks at him accusingly:: Or are you trying to cheat me!

CMO_D`han says:
::begins introducing herself to the staff::

CSO_Washudoin says:
*CSec* Powers, this is Washudoin, I'm coming down there to have a 'talk' with our Ferengi friends.

CSec_Powers says:
*CSO*: Yes, sir.  I'll have them prepare for you.

XO_Danforth says:
Trennar: If you'll excuse me for a moment?  The Captain wishes an update on our progress.  ::gets up from his chair::

Host Trennar says:
CNS: You are not a Klingon.  Of course Kahless' message would be clouded to you.

CSec_Powers says:
Akon: Of course not, Daimon.  But you must show first, as I called the bet.

CSO_Washudoin says:
*CSec* Thanks, out.

CSO_Washudoin says:
:: Motions for a science personnel to come and take his place for a bit::

CNS_Cook says:
Trennar: If the message was only meant for Klingons then why did the idol even communicate with me anyway?

CSO_Washudoin says:
Bargle: Ensign, I want you to go through the sensor logs and try and devise where the idol came from by studying the wormhole it came through.

CSO_Washudoin says:
<Bargle> CSO: Yes Sir, I'm on it.

Daimon_Akon says:
::stares at him for a long time and then lays down his cards, smiling:: CIV: I believe you would call this a Royal Flush.

CSO_Washudoin says:
CO: Sir, I'm going down now to ask the Ferengi some questions. :: Heads for the TL::

Host Trennar says:
CNS: We have no proof that it did.  Only your account.  Did anyone else see or hear it speak to you?

CSec_Powers says:
::Throws his cards down:: Daimon: Good game, Daimon.  Too bad it took you so long to learn it.  You should be prepared for the CSO... I hope he does not try to eat you.

XO_Danforth says:
::moves to the corner of the room:: 

XO_Danforth says:
*CO*: Things are going slowly sir.  Apparently, the CNS had a vision of sorts while in the idol and the Klingons believe it to be the prophecy they have been looking for.  Now they want to go to the idol.

CSO_Washudoin says:
:: Enters TL, takes the ride down and exits on the proper deck ::

CMO_D`han says:
::after introductions, starts prepping the infirmary for casualties::

CNS_Cook says:
Trennar: Our EO was also with me, I am assuming he saw the same as me

Host CO_Claymore says:
*XO*: Fine, tell them that if they can get the idol to leave Arcadian space they can do anything they want.

Host Trennar says:
CNS: Please inform your captain that we have wasted enough time here.  We wish to see the idol.

CSO_Washudoin says:
:: Follows the hall to the conference room, enters, and looks around for the small one who looks the most in charge ::

CNS_Cook says:
Trennar: Sir, I would not recommend going over there, the Romulans are preparing to destroy the idol, and your life could be in danger if you take that trip

Daimon_Akon says:
::gathers up the chips and looks at the CIV:: CIV: I do not want to talk to the CSO...I want to speak to your CO....now.

XO_Danforth says:
*CO*: Sir?  Is that what you really want?  I think the Romulans will try and stop the Klingons from entering the idol.

CSec_Powers says:
Daimon: You can tell that to him, sir.  ::Points to the CSO::

CSO_Washudoin says:
CSec: I was going to ask you to introduce us, but I think I know who to talk to now.

CNS_Cook says:
Trennar: If only you were a telepath things would be so much easier, I could then show you exactly what I saw

Host Trennar says:
CNS: Bah!  Romulans.  They will not be able to destroy it.  Kahless would never allow it.  Now, let us speak with your Captain.  ::Growing slowly angry::

Daimon_Akon says:
::looks at the CSO:: CSO: You...I want to speak to your Captain.  I want my idol now!

Host CO_Claymore says:
*XO*: The Klingons will not be permitted to do anything but get the idol to move, and they'll have to do it from here or their ship. Once the idol is gone it isn't our concern if the Klingons and Romulans decide to have a fight over it.... ::hears something:: Is everything alright down there?

CSec_Powers says:
::Thinks the Daimon was happier making and losing money on the card table... he picks up the deck and pockets the cards, thinking he might use them again later::

CSO_Washudoin says:
:: Seeming to hover above the Daimon :: Daimon: Excuse me Sir, you will have your chance, I just need to ask you a few questions

Daimon_Akon says:
::angry:: CSO: No!  No more talking...no more questions...I demand to speak to your captain!

CMO_D`han says:
::sees all the fine medical people working together, but sees room for improvement, wonders how long it has been since the station had a CMO::

CSO_Washudoin says:
:: Shows some teeth and leans forward :: Daimon: This will not take but a minute friend.

XO_Danforth says:
::goes back to the table:: Trennar: Sorry to interrupt your Eminence, but I have a message from the Captain.

CNS_Cook says:
::senses his growing anger:: Trennar: Please stay calm, becoming angry will not help us solve this.

CSO_Washudoin says:
:: Reaches his hand forward and puts it on the Daimon’s shoulder and applies a little pressure ::

CNS_Cook says:
::sees Danforth enter, and relaxes a little::

CSec_Powers says:
::Wonders if it's a good idea to physically intimidate the Ferengi with contact...::

Daimon_Akon says:
::stares up at the CSO...the feel of the chips in his hand making him brave:: CSO: You cannot harm me...you are a Starfleet officer.  Now take me to your captain!  otherwise I will call your superiors...I will call the Grand Nagus!  I will report that you are thieves and bullies!!

CSO_Washudoin says:
Daimon: How long exactly were you in contact with this idol before it got away?

XO_Danforth says:
::waits for permission from Trennar to speak::

Host Trennar says:
CNS: You do not understand.  It is the end!  Time is the one thing we do not have.  Kahless has sent his message and we must be allowed to hear it!  The council should have informed the Captain to allow this.  Now, tell him we wish to see him.

Daimon_Akon says:
CSO: I will not answer anymore questions.  I will speak to your captain now and no one else!

XO_Danforth says:
::deciding now would be a great time to soothe things down::

CNS_Cook says:
Trennar: I believe Commander Danforth has a message from the Captain ::looks at the XO::

Host CO_Claymore says:
CTO: How are the Romulans holding up out there? Still prepared to "blow us out of the sky"?

CSO_Washudoin says:
Daimon: Sir I am not trying to bully you or rob anything from you, I just need to ask some questions NOW! Or your wait will be delayed much longer.

XO_Danforth says:
Trennar: Your Eminence, I pass along great news from our Captain.  He says if you're willing to move the idol away from Federation space that you are welcome to do so.  He asks that you do not enter the idol until after it leaves the area.

CTO_Mrlr says:
CO: Aye sir...although their weapons are locked onto the idol.  Although it wouldn't take but a second to change that.

CNS_Cook says:
::wonders how exactly they are going to do that, some Klingon magic dance::

Daimon_Akon says:
<Denaro> ::rushes in from the bathroom and sees the CSO threatening his Daimon.  Runs over and starts pounding on the CSO's back:: CSO: Let him go...!

CSO_Washudoin says:
:: Turns to the little guy tapping him from behind and motions for the CSec to come and take of his light weight ::

Host Trennar says:
XO: Bah!  None of you understands.  Who are we to "move" the idol?  We do not control it, we only heed it's message.  If we could hear it over all this mindless prattle!  ::Snarls::  Tell your Captain we will wait no longer, if we do not speak with him immediately, or are allowed to go to the idol, I shall contact his superiors.

CSec_Powers says:
<Officer_Green> ::Comes running in after the assistant:: CSec: He was in there for forever!  I don't know what he was doing... but it stank!

CSec_Powers says:
::Stands up and grabs his rifle, unlocking it quickly without looking:: Denaro: Please release him.

Host CO_Claymore says:
::mumbles about how he'd wish they'd just go ahead and start taking pot shots at it::

XO_Danforth says:
Trennar: I will inform him of your wishes.

XO_Danforth says:
::gets up:: CNS: Please come with me Mr. Cook.

XO_Danforth says:
::begins walking out the door::

Daimon_Akon says:
CIV: leave my assistant alone!  I will contact your superiors about this!

CNS_Cook says:
::stands, and follows him out::

CSec_Powers says:
Denaro: You have my word he will not harm your Daimon... ::Looks at the CSO, but does not waiver his weapon::

Host Trennar says:
XO: Wishes!?  Klingons do not wish!  I am a man of peace, as my species goes, but do not trifle with me.

XO_Danforth says:
CNS: Dr. how do you assess the situation?  Is it grave?  Will the Klingons attack?

CSO_Washudoin says:
Daimon: I will contact my superiors about this, I'm sure they'd be interested in your involvement here.

Host Trennar says:
::Stomps around the room, his followers seething quietly in one corner::

Daimon_Akon says:
<Denaro>: ::ignoring the CIV and still pounding ineffectively on the CSO:: CSO: You let him go!

Daimon_Akon says:
CSO: By all means...let's call your superiors. ::motions for Denaro to stop::

CSO_Washudoin says:
:: Nods to the CSec to lower it, reaches his hand behind and grabs the Ferengi by his forehead and holds him in a stiff arm::

CSec_Powers says:
::Sighs loudly, thinking that Washudoin shouldn't have done that::  CSO: Uh, sir, maybe you should put him down.

CNS_Cook says:
XO:  Sir, he is growing angry, he wants to leave. He truly believes that there is a promised message for his people and it awaits him on the idol, I think he may do what ever it takes to get over there.  I do not believe that this is what he seeks, but the idol is trying to tell us something and that is what we need to figure out, because only....

CSO_Washudoin says:
Daimon: First you will answer my few quick questions so I can have something to report, or we can sit here and play catch with your helper monkey here.

CNS_Cook says:
then will we be able to make it go away

Daimon_Akon says:
CSO: And we can start with your captain. :: looks at Denaro still swinging but not hitting anything as he is held at arms length by the CSO:: And let my assistant go...how dare you treat a member of the Ferengi in such a matter.

CSO_Washudoin says:
:: Nods to the CSec and drops the little guy ::

Daimon_Akon says:
<Denaro> ::drops to the ground with a grunt and scrambles up to stand protectively by the Daimon::

Host CO_Claymore says:
::thinks some more on what to do in this situation:: CTO: What is your assessment of the situation, do we have a chance against the Romulans if they decided to attack us?

CSO_Washudoin says:
Daimon: Well, maybe I can find some info on your vessel's computers, we'll just say we need to a search cause there was the threat of a bomb on there and it might threaten the station and it inhabitants. 

CNS_Cook says:
XO: We need to convince Trennar, that this isn't what he seeks so he will leave, I just don't know how to do that ::trails off::....stubborn Klingon

Daimon_Akon says:
CSO: I will not answer any of your questions...I want my idol.  By the salvage codes of the Ferenginar and the alliance with the Federation I have rights!  I want to either talk to your captain or I will return to my ship.

CSec_Powers says:
::Thinks CSO is becoming way too intimidating.. but maybe he should have been a security officer::

CTO_Mrlr says:
CO: Aye sir..I think we can take her...it's just one little warbird. ::grins::

CMO_D`han says:
::sees everything in the infirmary is ready just in case it gets nasty out there::

Host Trennar says:
::Growls loudly with rage and, motioning for his followers, storms out of the conference room and down the hall toward the docking area.::

CSO_Washudoin says:
:: Looks to the CSec :: CSec: Ensign please make a team to search the Ferengi vessel for a possible "bomb", let me know what you find. :: Motions for the CSec to play along ::

Daimon_Akon says:
::angry:: CSO: I will be taking this to the Grand Nagus and your Starfleet Headquarters. ::turns and storms out of the room towards the transporter room followed hastily by Denaro::

CSec_Powers says:
::Taps his commbadge, but stops as they leave::

CSO_Washudoin says:
CSec: Oh well can't talk to these little Ferengi's anyway, it's not like I was going to offer the latinum or anything.

EO_Baggins says:
:: over hears the CO's question to the CTO and looks at sensors at the stations position at the present time ::

Host CO_Claymore says:
CTO: Then I'll chance it. *XO*: Bring the Klingons to Operations, and have the Ferengi come up here too.

Host Trennar says:
::Arrives at his ship and stalks aboard.::

CNS_Cook says:
::sees Trennar and the rest of his follows storm down the hall:: *CO* Sir, Trennar is leaving the conference room, and he is mad. I think he is going to try and get to the idol

Daimon_Akon says:
::enters the transporter room and demands to be transported back to his ship::

CSO_Washudoin says:
:: Readies to head back to Operations :: *CO* Sir the Ferengi are not being very cooperative and I think they think they are leaving? Any suggestions?

CSec_Powers says:
::Looks at the Klingon and his understatement and shares a glance with Officer Green::

Daimon_Akon says:
TR_Chief: I demand to be sent back to my ship!

CSO_Washudoin says:
:: Motions for the CSec to come along, walks out the room and starting down the hall ::

CSec_Powers says:
::Shrugs to Green and follows him:: Green: Get down to the docking bays and help out.  Send me a report in one half hour.  ::Green nods back and he follows the CSO::

Host Trennar says:
<TRChief> *CSec*: Sir, the Ferengi wish to leave.

CSec_Powers says:
::Thinks how to deal with the situation:: *TR_Chief*: Do you have orders to not beam him back?

CSO_Washudoin says:
:: Over hears the comm and laughs ::

Host Trennar says:
<TRChief> *CSec*: No sir, none that I am aware of.

Daimon_Akon says:
::stands there with his arms crossed waiting and tapping his foot::

CSec_Powers says:
*TR_Chief*: Then maybe it's best to allow them to leave...

Host CO_Claymore says:
*CSO*: Hold on just a moment

CNS_Cook says:
*CO* Trennar has left, and went back to his ship, what do you want to do?

EO_Baggins says:
:: looks over the recent scans of the stations current position and studies them for a while ::

Host Trennar says:
<TRChief> *CSec*: Aye sir.  ::Motions for the Daimon and assistant to get on the pads.

Daimon_Akon says:
<Denaro> ::hops onto the transporter pad next to his Daimon::

CSO_Washudoin says:
CSec: Tell them we are having problems with the transporter. :: Laughs a bit shaking his head :: *CO* Acknowledged.

CNS_Cook says:
::It is times like this that he wishes he would have just stayed on Betazed::  *CO* Sir?

CSec_Powers says:
*TR_Chief*: Uh, Chief... Chief Science Officer Washudoin says there is a problem with the transporter system...

Host CO_Claymore says:
*CNS*: Best let him go, return to operations to give me a report.

CSO_Washudoin says:
:: Enters the TL :: Computer: Operations. CSec: Just to mess with them a bit, they deserve that much.

Daimon_Akon says:
::hears what the CIV said:: TR_Chief: How would the CSO know that there is a problem with the transporters?  What is going on here?  Transport me back...now!

EO_Baggins says:
:: sensors start beeping breaking the EO's concentration, he looks over to the comm panel noticing the Klingons sending a message toward Klingon space ::

CNS_Cook says:
*CO* Aye on my way

EO_Baggins says:
CO : Sir, the Klingons just sent a message toward Klingon Space.

CNS_Cook says:
::makes his way back to operations::

Host CO_Claymore says:
::rubs forehead:: EO: Romulans aren't going to like that. CTO: Open a channel to all three ships, tell them we need to have a conference meeting between all of our groups. Perhaps on the statue.

CSO_Washudoin says:
:: Enters operations :: CSec: Let them go I think they've suffered enough.

Daimon_Akon says:
<Denaro> :: looking worried:: Daimon: I think they are trying to kidnap us.  ::looks at the TR_Chief:: TR_Chief: You are.. aren't you...trying to kidnap us.

CNS_Cook says:
::arrives back in Operation and heads over to Claymore::

CSec_Powers says:
::Sighs, hoping to keep this off his own record:: *TR_Chief*: Chief, Commander Washudoin says the transporters are back in operation.

CSO_Washudoin says:
:: Pats Powers on the back :: CSec: Good work, go ahead and take your station Ensign. :: Shows him a piece of a smile ::

CTO_Mrlr says:
CO: Aye sir... ::proceeds to contact all three ships::

CNS_Cook says:
CO: Sir, I tired to explain to Trennar that he shouldn't try and go over there but he wouldn't listen

CSec_Powers says:
CSO: Sir, with all due respect, I think that maybe I should go check up on the evacuation.  But thank you.

Daimon_Akon says:
::pats Denaro on the head:: Denaro: See...I knew they wouldn't dare mess with the Ferengi.  We will be back on our ship in just a moment.  I have all of this on record :: smiles and pats his pocket as he nods to the TR_Chief to initiate transport::

CSO_Washudoin says:
CSec: Understood. On your way. :: Takes his station :: Bargle: What did you find?

Host Trennar says:
<TRChief> ::Beams the Ferengi away::

Host CO_Claymore says:
*CNS*: Yes, probably a good idea, but if he is over there now then either the Romulans don't know or don't care. Would you mind accompanying me to the idol?
