SD 10309.09 Crystal Ball Part 3

Oh the horror of it all!

Not only does the Claymore have to find the missing scientists now they have to find one of their own.

How could this happen and how can they undo what has happened? Or can they?

<<<<<<<<<<Begin Mission>>>>>>>>>>

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@::standing on the desert planet next to the XO::

CIV_Maj_McClure says:
::Steps onto the Hanger bay:: *CO*: Captain we are ready to deploy.

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
::at tactical station monitoring the away team::

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
::standing in the doorway of the Captains RR kissing Patrick, in her dress and not realizing that she was supposed to leave that way, gets caught by the bridge crew::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::walks over and picks up the tricorder and checks the readings::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@All: Everyone keep scanning and stay clear of the formation.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::taps com badge:: *CO* Irvin to Claymore....

CSO_Lt_Taylor says:
#::Floating around, wondering how much longer he has until he is one with the crystal::

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
XO:still nothing on our CSO sir.

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@::With away team::

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
::Pulls out of the kiss and looks taps his comm badge::  *CIV*  Understood Major.  Standby

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
:: In sickbay finalizing some things for the CSOs return::

Host Krait says:
#::watching the people on the planet::

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@::still standing on the planet::

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
::stops the kiss, and turns around::  Self: This is not good.  CO: Sir, I will return to my quarters and return to the bridge.

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
::looks around::  CEO:  Understood Ms.  Mo'Bri.  *XO*  Go ahead Commander.

ACTION: Around the team on the planet they can hear a sing-song buzzing and their skin tingles.

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
Amstad: When we get him back here I want to run a full physical including a complete mental workup and scan.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
*CO* Has the Claymore received the tricorder telemetry we're sending up?

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@::looks down at his arm:: Self: Ugh . . . what’s that?

CSO_Lt_Taylor says:
#Krait: How much longer do I have until I am one with the crystal?

Host Krait says:
#CSO: Just a few more hours. ::pulses happily:: Then we can show you all the wonders of this world.

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
::walks over to the science station to check::  *XO*  Standby.

CSO_Lt_Taylor says:
#Krait: Yeah!  ::says sarcastically::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@*CO* Aye

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
<Amstad> Semaj: Understood sir and I was thinking of doing a complete blood gas workup as well.

CSO_Lt_Taylor says:
#::wonders around, slowly feeling his thoughts not being his own::

Host Krait says:
#CSO: You sound as if you are not happy about this, you will have eternal life with us.

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
::still scanning for the missing CSO hoping to get a lock on  his AT's signal::

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
::blushing she hurries to the TL:: Computer:  Deck 10 Express!!

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@XO: Sir do you hear that?  ::scratches::

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
Amstad: Agreed.  Make the preparations for that as well.

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@::Notices a sensation on his skin::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@FCO: Yes.  I did...  ::rubs arms and hands::

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
::keeps a clock on the away team just incase::

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@Self Outloud: I just want to find Alex and get outta here.  ::pulls out tricorder and starts to scan self::

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
<ADD @>

CSO_Lt_Taylor says:
#Krait: I don't want eternal life, sure I've studied and learned about things that can make you live for ever, but I don't.  I want to die and lead a happy life, as an individual being, not as a group being inside a crystal.

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
::TL stops at Deck 10 and she sprints to her quarters::

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*XO*  We are not getting any tricorder symmetry as of this time.

Host Krait says:
#CSO: I just don't understand that I would think everyone would be happy to be here.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::taps at the tricorder::

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
::come on give me something::

CIV_Maj_McClure says:
::Yells to his Marines:: Yells: Gather around.  We are on standby.

CSO_Lt_Taylor says:
#Krait: I'm not, I want to go back to my old life.

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*XO*  Correction Commander.  We are getting tricorder symmetry.

Host Krait says:
#CSO: I can not send you back.

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
::entering her quarters, she  tells Squiggy to behave, and changes into her uniform and races back to the TL::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@*CO*  What are y'all getting up there?

CSO_Lt_Taylor says:
#Krait: I know, i wish you could.

Host Krait says:
#::moves off to speak with some of the others::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::looks to OPS and the FCO::

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
::entering the TL:: Computer: Bridge Express!!

CSO_Lt_Taylor says:
#::moves over to the corner, unsure of what to do::

ACTION: Suddenly the telemetry starts pouring in.

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*XO*  I am looking over the information now.  Give me just a minute to gather it.

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
::the TL stops on the bridge and she sprints out::  CO: Sir, reporting as ordered.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@*CO* Aye sir.  OPS/FCO: Judging from the readings we have at the moment...  What is y'alls opinion?

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
:: Activates the ships internal com system for the bridge:: *CO*: Sickbay is now prepared for the CSOs return and we will be running a full workup on him when he arrives.

ACTION: The sing-song buzzing starts getting louder around the team.

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*XO*  It looks like they are energy based bio reading.  According to this, I am getting traces of human synaptic functions and what appears to be neural patterns.

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@XO: I'm totally stumped.

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
::RRR does a full spread scan of the planet::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@FCO: Kayle?

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*CMO*  Thank you doctor.  We are working on getting him back.

Host Krait says:
#CSO: We are trying to help you since you do not wish to be here. However, it seems they do not want to listen or respond.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::squints as the buzzing gets louder::

CSO_Lt_Taylor says:
#Krait: Maybe they don't understand your words.

Host Krait says:
#CSO: But you understand.

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
::Smiles at the CEO::  Welcome back.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@*CO* Captain...  I think that we could possibly use another science mind down here, and some cover.  Think you could spare Doctor Semaj and Ensign Harris?

CSO_Lt_Taylor says:
#Krait: That is because I'm in your form and can understand, is there anyway to change your sounds or frequency?

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@::stands for a moment still scratching and ringning his own ear::

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@@XO: Are these nueral patterns? They look odd?

Host Krait says:
#CSO: We communicate the only way we have ever communicated. There is nothing I can do. You are supposed to be the smart ones. ::floats off in a huff::

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
CO: Thankyou sir.  Do you have anything special in mind for me to help you with??  You did say you wanted me here to help in using my abilities??

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@OPS: Well, I'm not picking up any bio matter that would be present if he or the scientists were vaproized.....

CSO_Lt_Taylor says:
#Krait: I'm sorry.  ::moves off to the corner again::

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
CO:should i go down to the planet and give the away team some cover if they need it.

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@XO: This buzzing is driving me nuts.

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
CTO:  Head down to the transporter room.  I will be sending the coordinates to the TR. *CMO*  Report to the transporter room and meet Ensign Harris.  You will be joining the XO's AT.

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
CO:yes sir.

Host Krait says:
#::looks over seeing the CSO and floats back over to him:: CSO: Come and enjoy the place as it seems you will be staying.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::thinks to self::  Self, audible: Buzzing.......  

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@::wipes the sweat off the ridges on his nose::

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
::heads for the TL: armory::

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*XO*  I have them heading to the TR.  I have your coordinates.  ::Sends them to the TR::

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@XO: I would think there would be some kind of trace signature but I'm not reading any.

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
::exits the TL:: heads for the weapons::

CSO_Lt_Taylor says:
#::moves over to Krait and nods, getting more familiar to the surroundings::

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@XO: The louder the buzzing gets the closer we may be to an answer, if Alex was over here maybe something he did triggered something else. ::Stops and shakes head: XO: Its a place to start.

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
CEO:  Yes.  Look at what the tricorder has sent back.  ::moves over::

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
::grabs a type II phaser and a type II rifle and heads for the transporter room::

Host Krait says:
#CSO: You will see, you will come to like this place. ::moves towards a large group::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@OPS/FCO: There was this mission with the Enterprise 1701....   Where buzzing was involved....   ::tries to think above the noise::

CSO_Lt_Taylor says:
#::follows behind Krait::

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
*CO*: sir i am at the transporter sir and i am ready to go down.

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@XO:Is the buzzing a kind of vibration at a higher frequency?

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@XO: Late 23rd century history isnt my strong suit sir, you'll have to elaborate.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::smiles a halfhearted 'hopeful' smile::  OPS: Record it...   Then play it back.

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*CMO*  Doctor, report to the transporter room.

CIV_Maj_McClure says:
::Checks his gear::

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
*CO*: Aye sir.

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
::locks and loaded::

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*CTO*  Go ahead and beam down.  Tell the XO that the CMO will be on his way soon.

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
:: Heads out to the TR::

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
*CO*:yes sir.

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@::Records the buzzing sound then plays it back at several different speeds:: XO: Ok listen to this.

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
*XO*: sir the CMO will be on is way::

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
::looks at the readings::  CO: These readings look familiar.  It is almost like looking at a type of E band reading using the human brain synaps.  However, something is different some how.  I am not quite sure.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@*CO* Acknowledged

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
::beams down to the planet::

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
::continues to study it::

ACTION: All that is heard is the same sing-song buzzing.

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@XO: Any other ideas?

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@::starts to step forwards and scan the crystals ahead of them::

ACTION: A bolt of light strikes out from the crystals aimed for the FCO.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@:: rubs chin:: OPS: Slow it down more.....

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
@XO: sir nice to see you.

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@FCO: Don't get to close.

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
:: Enters the TR with the med kit and Beams to the surface::

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@::attempts to jump out of the way::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@FCO: KAYLE!!!!!!

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
::runs at the FCO and knocks him out of the way::

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
<@>

ACTION: The beam just barely misses the FCO.

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*CEO*  Do you think this is a way of locating or locking onto a person?

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@FCO: See it almost got you too.

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@::lands on the ground and rolls back over:: ALL: Damn it!  I forgot.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::takes a few steps back::  All: BACK OFF!  BACK BACK

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
::keeping her mind focused she makes another attempt to find the CSO but instead senses the FCO's surprise and anger at him self::

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
CEO:  I am going to run these through the medical database to see if they match anything we have on file.

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@::stands and brushes off then backs off:: CTO: Thank you Ensign.

Host Krait says:
#CSO: It would seem some of your friends are toying with joining you.

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
@:: Appears on the surface and looks for the XO::  XO: Dr. Semaj reporting as ordered, sir.

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
@FCO: any time sir.

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@::Steps back, but tries to get an energy reading from where the beam struck the ground::

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
@::takes out the phaser and sets to stun::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@CMO: Thank you doctor.  Judging from the readings that we have taken thus far...  ::hands him the tricorder::  Can you form an opinion of what we are dealing with here?

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@ALL: Was anyone able to scan that beam?

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
::access the medical database and begins to run the tricorder symmetry through it for matches::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::looks to the CTO::  CTO: Hold your fire Ensign....

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
:: Takes the tricorder and looks at the readings::

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
@::puts the phaser away::

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@FCO: I tried but it was fast.

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
CO: There is a problem on the planet. I am sensing heightened emotions from the CTO and the rest of the AT.

CSO_Lt_Taylor says:
#Krait: I pray they stay clear.  :: moves around examining things and places in the crystal ::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@CMO: We need answers Doctor.....   

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
::taps the comm button:: *XO*  How are things down there, Commander?

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@::paces over slowly towards Norris and whispers:: OPS: I am getting frustrated.

CSO_Lt_Taylor says:
#::begins seeing things from the past and present::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@*CO* Semaj is analizing our data now.  We have been fired on again though....   No casualties... No injuries...

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
@::slowy walks forward scanning with my eyes every were::

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@FCO: Me too. Gee I wonder what is inside this crystal.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::hears the wisper::  FCO: No one more than I Liuetenant...  No one more than I.

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
CO: Sir I do believe that these are infact Eband emissions.

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
@Aloud: Fascinating.

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@::doesn’t say anything just glancing at the XO not sure if his comment was directed towards him or the situation::

CSO_Lt_Taylor says:
#::sees his past with his wife, and begins to cry::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@CMO: What is it Semaj?  

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*XO*  I am running the tricorder symmetry through the medical database.  I am trying to see if it matches anything...

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
CEO:  Can you confirm it?

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@FCO/XO: I got some really odd communication signals when I scanned that beam.

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
@XO: Request permission to try something, sir.

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@OPS: Maybe its not a weapon.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@*CO* Anything you can come up with is cgreatly appreciated Captain.

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
CO: Attempting now sir.

ACTION: The computer sends back an inconclusive answer as there isn't enough of any to make a complete match.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@CMO: Granted....  But use EXTREME caution.

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
@::walks back to were the xo stands::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@CTO: Cover him.  

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@OPS; What have you got Ensign?

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
::runs the patterns through and is disappointed as they come back inconclusive::

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@FCO: Not sure what I am seeing. Hang on. ::Runs some tests on the signals::

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
@::covers the CMO::

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*XO*  Can you get me some more readings.  There wasn't a match.  I wonder if we have a little more information.

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@XO: Checking Sir.

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
@XO: Understood, sir.  :: Approaches the crystals and starts preparing himself for a mindmeld::

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*XO*  The CEO is working on an Eband theory.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::hears the captain::  OPS: Transmit your data to the ship.

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
@::walks with the CMO::

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
Self:  Augusfratt, this is no help.  CO: Sir, I need more to go on to make a complete match.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::notices what the CMO is doing:: CMO: Are you sure that is wise?

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@XO: Human synaptic functions?

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
@::Reaches out for the crystal structure::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::looks befuzzled::  OPS: What?!?  ::looks quickly back to the CMO::

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
CEO:  I have asked Commander Irvin to send us some more information.  I didn't get much of a match either.

ACTION: A plasma ray shoots out surrounding the CMO.

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
@::knocks the CMO out of the way::

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
@::and gets blown back haaaaa::

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@XO: I think Taylor is inside the crystal.

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
CO: Sir we are missing something important and it escapes me.

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
:: Reaches out with his mind::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::approaches the CMO:: CMO: Doctor!!!!!

ACTION:  The CMO is pulled inside the crystal.

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@::watches the scene unfold, pulls back the XO:: XO: No sir!

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@SELF There goes another one.

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
@CMO: what’s going on::

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
::hears the CMO and then silence::  CO: The CMO is gone.  I can't sense him now at all.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::chucks his tricorder against a rock face:: All: DAMNIT!

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
CEO:  I know.  I am going to cross refernce this information with the sample information I have and...::looks at the CEO:: *XO*  Report!

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@::pulls out tricorder and sees if he can get fresh readings of what just happened::

CSO_Lt_Taylor says:
#::looks over to the new member of the crystal::

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@XO: If somehow they are inside the crystal there has got to be a way to communicate with them.

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
@::walks over to were the CMO use to stand noooo::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::snaps fingers:: OPS: The buzzing!

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
#CSO: Lt. What is this place?

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
::feeling the urgent need to crack this puzzle she works twice as hard on the solution::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@*CO* What have y'all got on the E-Band scan?

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@XO: I have the same communication synapse reading as before.

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*XO*  Not much of anything.  We don't have enough information.  What do you have?

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
@::stands beside the rest of the away team::

Host Krait says:
#CSO: See I told you they wished to join you.

CSO_Lt_Taylor says:
#CMO: A place that is within the crystal.  You can see the past and present, and soon we will I'll be apart of it.

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@::rolls eyes and paces around, feeling sarcasm take over:: XO: Maybe if we get the crystals to capture pattern enhancers.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::sighs thinking about missing friends::  *CO* A missing doctor.....  

Host Krait says:
#CSO: And when you do you can see the future as well.

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
Computer:  Run these tricorder readings and cross reference with history USS Enterprise NCC 1701.  Is there a correlation to synaptic functions with any E band emissions??

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::looks to the FCO::  FCO: Say that again..... 

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
#CSO: Not if the team has anything to say about it.

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@XO: I said maybe if we can get that beam to take pattern enhancers . . . .

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
#Krait: Who are you?

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*XO*  Damn...well send what information you have now.  We will stay on the books to see what we have.

Host Krait says:
<Computer> CEO: No such correlation exists.

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
<Computer>: CEO: Working

CSO_Lt_Taylor says:
#CMO: I hope so.  I don't have much time left.

Host Krait says:
#CMO: I am Krait the leader of my people as I have been for eons.

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
#CSO: Explain?

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::looks to OPS and FCO to send tricorder data to the ship::  FCO: You know... I think you're close...  But what if they are part of the crystalline structure.....

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
#Krait: And your people are whom?  What kind of life form are you?

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@XO: I think someone is going to have to volunteer to be taken. Only this time they will be equipped with wide band communication devices designed to interpret synapse signals.

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@XO: Maybe baryon radiation then, something they can ingest that will separate their patterns from the crystals.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::rubs chin::  FCO: You might have just nailed it....   *CO* Captain...  Can you guys get a clear reading on the synaptic functions in the structure?

Host Krait says:
#CMO: At one time we were like you. ::pulses:: Our planet was dying...

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
Self: Ok... Computer: Using the medical database, cross reference the synaptic patterns for the CMO and the CSO with the E band emissions that exist from the tricorder readings.  Is there a match??

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
<Computer>: CEO: Working

CSO_Lt_Taylor says:
#CMO: Well  I have only a few hours left, until I'm fully one with the crystal.  You have around 6 hours to get out.

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@::looks at Ops and XO:: XO: I volunteer.

Host Krait says:
#CMO: We found as the rivers and streams dried up these crystals were present. Once we found out what they were and they said they could help us we entered them.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
All: Absolutely not until we have exhausted all other possibilities.....

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@FCO: I think I should be the one to go.

ACTION: The CSO now has three hours remaining.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
All: Thank you for volunteering though Kayle.  

CSO_Lt_Taylor says:
#CMO: I have three hours left.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
*CO* Claymore... Respond....

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
#Krait: The crystals talked to you when you were like us?

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
@FCO: i will not loose any more of the waya team.

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
#CSO: Understood.

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*XO*  Standby

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@CTO: And what do you think you are? Expendable.

Host Krait says:
#CMO: Yes they did. Just as we have been trying to talk to everyone out there but no one will listen.

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
~~~XO: Eli, do you hear me?~~~

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@XO: Which do u like better? Pattern enhancers or the radiation dose?

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@XO: I have the experience in communications. With some modifications to our COM badges they should be able to read, interpret and send synapse vibrations.

CSO_Lt_Taylor says:
#CMO: It's because they can't understand the sounds.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@FCO: Well...  If we have synaptic function readings and nothing else... We can assume that matter is not the same where they are.  Pattern enhancers would be moot....  

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
CO: Sir I am attempting to try to match the CMO and CSO's synaptic brain waves using the Medical Data base and the tricorders information.

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*XO*  The only synaptic functions I am reading are what you have sent me.  That is only after someone has been absorbed into the crystal.

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@XO: But the Baryon Radiation would spread througout their body, giving us a signal.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
*CO*FCO/OPS/CTO: Maybe we could lock onto those readings with the transporter......  

Host Krait says:
#CMO/CSO: For all your advancements you can't even communicate with others.

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
#CSO: The buzzing we heard?  Is that the communication?

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
CEO:  I did that.  It was not able to make a match.

CSO_Lt_Taylor says:
#CMO: Yes it is, but they can't understand it.

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
@XO:would that work.

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
@XO:about that CO said.

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
::bangs both fists on the sides of her chair:: Self: This is ludicrous and I can't sense them either.

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
Self:  There has to be a connection with the crystals and these readings from the planet.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@*CO* Captain....  Have Ensign Mo'Bri lock on to the synaptic readings with the transporter...  Full mavigain on resonator array.

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@XO: Sir whatever is going on, we might be running out of time, we have no idea whats happening to Alex and the Doctor in there.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
FCO: Agreed.

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
#CSO: Maybe if we sent them a message in mathematics first.\

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*XO*  The synaptice readings you sent me?

Host Krait says:
#CMO/CSO: Perhaps we should all go back to a simpler time. ::starts pulsing and sending out a signal to the others...all around the CSO and CMO the area shifts and they find themselves looking at something that looks like 1950's earth::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@*CO* Aye.... And the most recent ones from the CSO and CMOs disappearance

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
#::Raises an eyebrow::

CSO_Lt_Taylor says:
#CMO: Maybe, I had even thought maybe different tones or like morse code.

ACTION: As the pulsing inside the crystals starts the external color pulses then settles back to it's normal pinkish color.

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@XO: Look at the crystals . . .

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@::points::

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*XO*  According to what I have, they are nothing but fragments of what has been left after the CMO and CSO were absorbed.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::looks at crystals::  FCO: Yeah... I just saw that....

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@::Thinks-Life in a crystal I should think any kind of noise would vibrate to the point of a loud buzzing. Like a tuning fork.::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::sighs at the Captain's last response::

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
#Krait: How were you trying to communicate with the others before?  Were you just talking to them?

Host Krait says:
#CMO: Of course unless you don't communicate that way anymore.

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@XO: My minds turning to clay here . . . I mean we dont want to scramble and hurt them, but maybe the transporter would be able to sort it out and rematerialize them

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
::hearing the XO:: CO: Sir, is it possible that these same chrystals might hold within them the energy patterns of the missing members of the AT and the science team.

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
CEO:  COmply with the XO's request.

ACTION: Around the CMO and CSO some of the 'beings' take shape of families and children playing in the park.

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
#Krait: We do, but I am formulating an idea.

CSO_Lt_Taylor says:
#::feels a calm, but slowly comes back to his own thoughts::

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
CEO:  I would say yes.

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@::Checks scanner. Thinks - If all these reading arte just fragments that have been bouncing around supppose I play with the patterns abit. Like work it like a jig saw puzzle and see if a correct pattern can be found::

Host Krait says:
#CMO/CSO: As you see we have a wonderful life here. And we were saved from the destruction.

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
CO: Understood sir.  ::walks to the engineering console:: Computer: Activate Main Engineering Master console>  Voice ID  Gamma Alpha 90953 Pi

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@*CO* Captain.... It's the only thing that I can think of at this point.  We're monitoring minor changes in the face of the crystal.......

Host Krait says:
#::settles into the form of an old man and settles on a nearby porch listening to old dance music on the radio::

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@::Begins rearanging the synaptic pattern in various orders::

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
<Computer>: CEO: Voice ID recoginized as CEO Ens. J'Loni Shrilak Mo'Bri  ::the engineering console jumps to life::

CSO_Lt_Taylor says:
#CMO/Krait: A very nice life here.

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*XO*  The CEO is working on your request Commander.  What did your tricorder pick up?

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*XO*  When the crystal changed?

Host Krait says:
#CSO: That is what I have been trying to tell you. No sickness, no death, just life at its best no matter when you wish to live it.

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
::punches in the commandes and narrows the confinement beam and boosts the mavigain::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::walks over to OPS, noticing that he is tapping away on his tricorder::  *CO* It's not so much what the tricorders are reading...  But what Kayle and I are seeing....

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
#::Yells:: Commander Irvin!!  :: Pauses what seems like a minute then yells it twice::

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
@::walks beside the XO::

ACTION: The sing-song buzzing increases then slowly dies away to a low hum again.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@*CO* Color changes....   Slight, but noticeable changes....

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
*XO*: Sir I have done as you requested.  Ready to energize on your command.  ::looks at the Captain:: CO: Sir I am ready to energize.

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
CEO:  Energize.

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@XO: Im trying to solve a puzzle , Sir

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
CO: Energizing now.  ::hits the button::

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*XO*  We are energizing now.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::hears the banter on the bridge::  OPS: Keep at it.....   All: They're energizing transporters....

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@XO: I hope this works.

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
#:: Repeats the yelling only increasing it from once to twice, then 3 times then 5 then 7 then 9 times and repeats::

CSO_Lt_Taylor says:
#CMO: We need to find a way out of here, I'm getting to close to the others.

ACTION: The crystals begin turning black and a beam fires out tracing the transporter beam back to the ship blowing the sensors.

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@SELF: Whao! What was that?

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
::is thrown from her chair::  Argh!!!!

ACTION: The engineering console explodes.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::jumps back:: *CO* Captain....  Do you have them?

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
::runs over to Mo'Bri and kneels::  CEO:  Are you alright?  ::looks at her::

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
#CSO: I am hoping this will work.  I am using the Commanders name but its the number of times I am yelling it that counts.  It is the first set of prime numbers.  I hope that the buzzing is intermittent to where he will pick up the pattern.

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*XO*  Negative Commander.  We don't have them or sensors.

CIV_Maj_McClure says:
::Is rocked:: *CO*: Captain everything all right up there?

FCO_Lt_Theron says:
@::sighs in a huff and kicks the sand:: XO: This is getting old fast.

Host Krait says:
#::turns a dark red:: CMO/CSO: Why are your people attacking us?

CSO_Lt_Taylor says:
#CMO:I hope so too.

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
::looking at the Captain and slowly gets up:: CO:  Sir I am alright.  ::shakes head:: I am alright captain.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::looks back to OPS:: OPS: Any new readings?

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
#Krait: Explain?  They would not attack without provocation.

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@XO: The crystal must feel threatened.

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*CIV*  We are okay Major.  We just lost sensors.  ::helps the CEO up::

Host Krait says:
#CMO: Well obviously they did or else the crystals would not have erected the forcefield and fired their weapons.

CSO_Lt_Taylor says:
#Krait: I agree with the CMO, they wouldn't attack without cause.

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@XO: That beam was directed at our ship.

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
@::takes out the phaser and the rilfe am not taking any chances::

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@OPS: Threatened?  All we did was energize....   ::thinks::  Do you realize you are suggesting this crystal is sentient life?

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*XO*  Have you tried communicating with the crystal?

CIV_Maj_McClure says:
*CO*: Alright I'll be up shortly, Captain.  ::Nods to his Subordinate::

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
::walks with the help of the captain to Engineering 2::  * Ens. Spanner*:  What the blazes happened???

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
#Krait: I was trying to communicate when I was brought in here.  Will you help me to communicate with the crystals now?

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@XO: Yes Sir. That is exactly what I'm saying. It is alive and knowing.

ACTION: The blackness of the crystal begins to return to the pinkish shade.

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@*CO* Not in the conventional sense....

Host CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*XO*  Give it a try.  Who knows at this point.

Host Krait says:
#CMO: All you have to do is talk to them. You were brought in because you got too close and they thought you wished to join us.

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
@::stands in front of the XO and FCO::

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@XO: But can it be reasoned with?

CIV_Maj_McClure says:
::Heads to the Bridge::

CMO_Ltjg_Semaj says:
#Krait: what is the crystal called?  Does it have a name?

XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::walks up to the crystal formation to what he conciders a safe distance, walking past the CTO::  Crystal: I am Commander Eli Irvin...  We come in peace.  We mean you no harm.....

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@::Tries to find a pattern to match synapse signature.

CTO_Ens_Harris says:
@::walks behind the XO::

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
<Ens. Spanner>: CEO: Sir we had a masive power feedback in the transporter beam.  It blew out the primary transporter buffers and the primary EPS relays in the sensor gird.  I have dispached a team to the transporter room and we are in the process of going to the backup sensor grids.

Host Krait says:
#CMO: The crystal is all of us. It is you and it is I just as it is all the people who have joined us.

OPS_Ens_Norris says:
@::Thinks- I must try to learn its language::

CEO_Ens_J`Loni_Mo`Bri says:
::senses the Captains frustrations::
