Host Mike says:
Last time on Arcadia, Vice Admiral Quintaine, and his Personal Engineer arrived on Risa, and went down to make preparations.
Host Mike says:
Since then the food was prepared and all the Delegates (about 46) have sat down to lunch and begun to eat their hearty meals.
Host Mike says:
<<<<<<<< Begin: Scare Tactic Part II >>>>>>>>>>>
CMO Burton says:
::Sitting at a table eating his meal::
AMB Jinxx says:
::Places her napkin neatly in her lap and then waits for the gong her aide is about to ring ::
Host Mike says:
ACTION: Vice Admiral Quintaine steps up to the Podium.
AMB Jinxx says:
::Lowers her head in silent meditation ::
CNS Rose says:
::Eats her meal while watching the delegates::
VEO Preston says:
::Sits down to listen::
CMO Burton says:
::Watches the Admiral at the podium::
AMB Jinxx says:
::Motions to her aide to wait on the gong and looks up at the Admiral ::
CNS Rose says:
::Moves her attention to the Admiral::
Host ADM Quintaine says:
::Takes out his PADD and places it on the podium and taps it to pull up his speech:: All: I am here today to speak with you all about the security of the Federation. In the light of the recent victories over the Dominion, Borg, and Remans, many in Starfleet are becoming too soft.
VEO Preston says:
::Activates devices::
Host ADM Quintaine says:
All: They have come to the conclusion that all the threats to the Federation have been thwarted and that there is no need to continue increased security any longer. I tell you this is not the case.

Host ADM Quintaine says:
All: This is no time to become soft, we much keep a sharp eye on the enemy. We must exercise constant vigilance at all times.
CMO Burton says:
::Leans over to the CNS::  CNS: Are you hearing what I am hearing?
Host ADM Quintaine says:
All: The enemies are all around us, and we must increase our security, not become lax in it. I move today that we should have ground troops on all colony worlds within the Federation, to maintain security.
VEO Preston says:
::Looks at the CNS & CMO:: Self: wonder what they are doing?
AMB Jinxx says:
:: Raises her hand :: All: I agree that the Federation has become very complacent since our enemies have been neutralized....for the most part. ::Smiles at the Admiral briefly ::
CNS Rose says:
::Nods:: CMO: Yes it does seem strange.
CMO Burton says:
CNS: Are you getting any sense of his feelings?
Host ADM Quintaine says:
Amb: Thank you Ambassador.
Host ADM Quintaine says:
All: I would suggest that all federation citizens on all Federation worlds be submitted to constant blood tests, in case the Dominion should decide to return.
Host ADM Quintaine says:
All: We must always exercise constant vigilance, stamping out all who would threaten the Federation, so that all Federation members can be safe.
AMB Jinxx says:
ADM: I agree with your proposal to increase security on all member worlds. Well-said Admiral. Better safe than sorry as the Terrans say, correct?
CMO Burton says:
CNS/VEO: This can't be. It goes against everything the Federation stands for.
CNS Rose says:
CMO: There are too many minds to focus on his alone but there is something strange that I am sensing.
VEO Preston says:
CMO: I know it does.
Host B AMB Cox says:
::The Bolian speaks up:: Adm: HEAR HEAR!
CMO Burton says:
::Raising his hand:: Admiral, are you suggesting we enforce some type of martial law on all federation citizens? Isn't that against the core of what the Federation stands for?
AMB Jinxx says:
:: nods in agreement with Ambassador Cox ::
CMO Burton says:
CNS: Strange? as in?
Host ADM Quintaine says:
CMO: I am not suggesting anything Doctor... I'm saying it. We must protect the Federation at all costs. I recommend harsher punishments for anyone who violates the law. We must reinstate the death penalty for those who deserve it.
CNS Rose says:
CMO: I'm not sure but the Admiral's EO seems very stressed and nervous.
VEO Preston says:
::Looks around at everyone:: All: What I a-am nnnot dddoing anything.
CMO Burton says:
Admiral: And what has the Federation council said of these "safeguards"?
CMO Burton says:
VEO: You all right?
CNS Rose says:
CMO: Something’s not right all I’m sensing is agreement no one is against this.
AMB Jinxx says:
::Looks down at her plate and drops her fork :: Self: I didn't order gagh did I? ::Sees the worms crawling over the plate and backs away from the table slightly ::
VEO Preston says:
CMO: Yeah I am all right. ::Shies away::
CMO Burton says:
CNS: No one?
CMO Burton says:
CNS: How do you feel?
AMB Jinxx says:
All: Take it away! :: stands and backs away ::
CMO Burton says:
::Looks at Ambassador Jinxx::
Host B AMB Cox says:
ACTION: Voices get louder and louder in Jinxx's head every small sound seems loud and annoying.

AMB Jinxx says:
All: Since when do you treat an ambassador this way? If someone is playing a joke, then it is a very bad one.
VEO Preston says:
::Looks at the ambassador::
CNS Rose says:
::Stands:: AMB: what is wrong Ambassador Jinxx?
Host ADM Quintaine says:
All: The Security of the Federation is at stake, nothing, and nobody will stop us from saving it.
AMB Jinxx says:
::Points to the table :: CNS: Don't you see that? Take it away! ::Grabs her head and turns around ::
VEO Preston says:
Adm: I say the security is fine. ::Shaking while saying that::
Host B AMB Cox says:
ACTION: The EO is not eating anything.
CNS Rose says:
CMO: Something is wrong she thinks her food is gagh.
AMB Jinxx says:
CNS: You serve snake to someone as delicate as I? Take it away I say! :: Moves over closer to the doctor ::
Host B AMB Cox says:
ACTION: Jinxx sees a worm like creature jump out of her dish and wrap itself around her throat. No one else can see this happen.
CMO Burton says:
::Looks over to see what the Ambassador is eating::
CMO Burton says:
AMB: We will remove it right away. Please relax.
AMB Jinxx says:
::Clutches her throat :: All: Help me! Someone help me! It's attacking me!
CNS Rose says:
CMO: It's not just Amb Jinxx others are having hallucinations something is going on here.
AMB Jinxx says:
All: Kill it, kill it! ::Grabs at the doctor's arm :: Kill it please!
Host B AMB Cox says:
ACTION: Jinxx Falls to the Floor Struggling., the Admiral looks nerved by this.
AMB Jinxx says:
::Crumples to the floor still clutching her throat and moaning now ::
Host ADM Quintaine says:
All: What is the meaning of this outrage.
CMO Burton says:
::Hurries to check on Amb Jinxx::
CMO Burton says:
::Checking Jinxx's vitals::
VEO Preston says:
::Walks toward devices to check them::
CMO Burton says:
::Jumps back repulsed as he sees his mother laying there...dead::
CNS Rose says:
::Quickly goes over to the doctor:: CMO: She thinks something is around her neck ::Looks at the doctor:: CMO: Are you alright? 
Host B AMB Cox says:
ACTION: The Hallucination Passes for a moment, The Ambassador has a chance to catch her Breath
AMB Jinxx says:
:;Looks up, her eyes with a strange look as she sees the doctor :: CMO: Doctor! What are you doing to me? ::Pulls away ::
CMO Burton says:
Jinxx: No, You can't be dead!
Host B AMB Cox says:
ACTION: the VEO Disappears out of the Conference Area. He has run off somewhere.
CMO Burton says:
Self: Why... WHY!?!
AMB Jinxx says:
::Sits up and looks at the CNS :: CNS: Is he crazy? Who is dead?
VEO Preston says:
Self: Thank the fates I am out of there.
CMO Burton says:
CNS: She's dead, how could this happen.
CNS Rose says:
::Looks around and doesn’t sees the VEO:: Self: now where is he gone to
Host B AMB Cox says:
::Continues eating his food sort of blissfully::
CMO Burton says:
::Shakes his head a bit:: AMB: I am sorry I appear to have seen something a bit strange, but I feel better know, please let me examine you.
CMO Burton says:
::Starts to examine Jinxx::
CNS Rose says:
Amb: what exactly did you see amb Jinxx?
AMB Jinxx says:
::Moves back and stands up again :: All: Something strange is happening here. CMO: Are the snakes gone? Wait, there were snakes on the plate right?
CMO Burton says:
AMB: I believe that many of us have been having hallucinations. There were no snakes.
Host B AMB Cox says:
ACTION: the CNS Sees a Rat run across a nearby Table. And is a bit light headed.
AMB Jinxx says:
CNS: I thought I saw Klingon gagh on my plate and then they turned into snakes and one leapt at me and was trying to kill me!
AMB Jinxx says:
::Turns to the doctor :: CMO: Are we all going mad?
CMO Burton says:
AMB: I would suggest we evacuate from this area as soon as possible.
CNS Rose says:
::Jumps onto a chair:: All: ah get it get it before it touches me
Host ADM Quintaine says:
::Looks around for his Engineer::
CMO Burton says:
CNS: What? What is it?
CNS Rose says:
::Focuses but then vomits on the floor::
AMB Jinxx says:
::Jumps as the counselor jumps onto the chair :: CMO: I'll be right behind you doctor. ::Stares at the counselor for a moment ::
Host ADM Quintaine says:
All: I recommend we take a recess while the Doctor and Counselor sort this little snag out.
CNS Rose says:
::Holds her Stomach:: CMO: Something is in the food
AMB Jinxx says:
::Makes a face as she sees the counselor deposit her dinner on the floor ::
CMO Burton says:
CNS: Come with us, you will be alright. I'll take care of you.

Host B AMB Cox says:
::Giggles and continues to eat gleefully::
CMO Burton says:
CNS/AMB: Follow me.
AMB Jinxx says:
::Nods at Admiral Quintaine :: Adm: Oh I agree fully with that idea.
CNS Rose says:
::Looks at the doctor seriously:: I’m fine now there is something in the food that is causing all this.
CMO Burton says:
ALL: Hurry let's get away from here.
AMB Jinxx says:
::Reaches for the doctor's arm :: CMO: Quickly doctor.
CMO Burton says:
CNS: Are you sure about the food?
Host ADM Quintaine says:
CMO: Perhaps I should return to my ship while we are waiting for your investigation
CMO Burton says:
::Yelling:: ALL: Everyone, Stop eating the food immediately!
CNS Rose says:
CMO: The admiral's EO wasn't eating any of the food ::Looks up at the admiral:: CMO: No we must keep everyone here until we get this figured out.
AMB Jinxx says:
::Listens as she pulls the doctor to the door :: CNS: You take care of it counselor.
CMO Burton says:
CNS: Take a sample of that food and get it to a lab right away. We should also scan everyone for any blood toxins.
AMB Jinxx says:
All: Wait! CNS: Are you saying that someone is trying to poison us?
CMO Burton says:
AMB: Perhaps we should seal off the room and examine everyone here. 
Host ADM Quintaine says:
Amb: Poison, why would anyone want to poison us?
Burton says:
ADM: We need to have security seal this room and also find your VEO, he seems to have disappeared.

AMB Jinxx says:
::Shakes her head :: ADM: We are all very important ambassadors here. There are those that would see this conference fail.
Host B AMB Cox says:
::Is still eating::
Host ADM Quintaine says:
All: But if we have been poisoned then this is a perfect example of what I have been talking about, we need tighter security. This so-called pleasure planet has become a pit of horror because security was lax.
CMO Burton says:
::Walks over to Cox:: Cox: I am sorry about this sir.:: Takes the utensils from the Ambassador::
AMB Jinxx says:
::Looks at Cox :: AMB Cox: Ambassador, you appear unaffected.
CNS Rose says:
CMO: Yes sir. ::Takes a sample of the food and does a quick scan before sending it to a quarantined chamber for testing at the station::
AMB Jinxx says:
::Nudges the doctor:: CMO: I don't trust him.
Host ADM Quintaine says:
All: If it is the food, then I am unaffected because I didn't eat any, I wasn't hungry.
CMO Burton says:
CNS: Let's take airborne scans as well.
