Last time on the Scimitar:

The Scimitar has arrived in the Biruani Sector, the SO has decrypted a message reading “Phase 2 Confirmation Not Received. Proof of receipt required.”

The CSO was interrogated about the CO, his captors using his love for the CNS as leverage. A Romulan warbird appears on sensors, which the crew is now monitoring while hiding in the shadow of one of the moons.

The CMO, meanwhile, seems to be dealing with either a faulty chair or some extra weight issues

Captain's Log, Stardate 10903.02, As per Starfleet's instructions to keep a low profile here, we are currently hiding behind a handy little moon from a Romulan warbird after picking up a rather cryptic communication from a relay station. 

<<<<Begin Mission - “Metamorphosis” Part 2 – When the Winds of Will are Stirred>>>>

ACTION: The Romulan Warbird seems to be headed towards the relay buoy in the asteroid field.

CO Capt MacAllister says:
::sitting in his seat on the bridge::
OPS_Ens_Yor`KiE says:
::At OPS::
XO Lt Rokar says:
::steps off the turbolift to the Bridge and takes in the surroundings::
CNS Lt Solaa says:
::sitting in her seat on the bridge::
 SO Andrews says:
CO: Sir, the warbird just set a course for the buoy.
CO Capt MacAllister says:
SO: Any signs that we've been spotted?
XO Lt Rokar says:
::moves down to stand next to the CO and waits::

@ ACTION: The lights flash on in the cell, forcing the CSO to squint. A sillouette of a man can be seen at a distance.

 SO Andrews says:
CO: None at all. We should be hidden as long as we stay here.
CSO Lt York says:
@::holds a hand over his eyes and tries to stand up:: Outloud: Hello...
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::suddenly remembering the CO wanted him on the bridge for some reason, so he excuses himself to the Chief and heads out of his office and finds the closest turbolift.::
 EO Jim says:
::walks into Sickbay::
XO Lt Rokar says:
CO: Excuse me, Captain. ::comes to attention next to the CO::
CO Capt MacAllister says:
SO: Keep an eye on it and let me know if it does anything of interest.
CEO Strauss says:
EO: Yes? ::puts his tools down::
CO Capt MacAllister says:
::looks up at the new XO:: XO: You must be the elusive Doctor Rokar.
 EO Jim says:
Aloud: Anyone here? Heard a chair needs fixing... Jim'll fix it.
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::As the doors to the turbolift open, he steps in.:: TL; Bridge please.
Figure says:
@CSO: One-Zero-Three did not cooperate.
XO Lt Rokar says:
CO: Yes sir ::hands him a PADD:: Although I should get used to being addressed by my rank again. So Lieutenant Ren Ro'kar, reporting for duty, sir
 CEO Strauss says:
EO: I'm right here Jim. I told you to take over the team at manifold control.
 EO Jim says:
::shrugs and works on fitting the CMOs spanking new chair::
CSO Lt York says:
@Figure: One-zero-three? ::his head throbbing from the lack of sleep and dehydration:: hello ? Can I go now ?
CO Capt MacAllister says:
XO: I see this is your first command posting... take a seat... this should be interesting.

ACTION: The warbird arrives at the relay buoy and seem to be modifying it, or performing routine maintainence.

XO Lt Rokar says:
CO: Aye sir. ::nods to the CNS and takes a seat on the other side of the CO::
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::waits for the turbolift to come to a stop. The doors open and he steps on the bridge. For some reason, he feels a cold chill run up his spine. It's been a while since he was last on this bridge and even as a different officer. Yet self confident he steps on.:: CO: Ahem... You called for me?
Figure says:
@CSO: One-Zero-Three underwent a procedure in order to ascertain required information.
CSO Lt York says:
@::tries to remember what he means by One-zero....wait:: Figure: Rynia? YOU LEAVE HER ALONE! ::makes a run for the figure::
CO Capt MacAllister says:
CMO: Oh yes, so I did... in my office please. ::stands up and heads for the ready room:: XO: You have the bridge. ::grins and enters his ready room::
XO Lt Rokar says:
::looks up at the CO and nods:: CO: Ye-es, Captain
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::nods and looks a bit worried as he spots the grinn on the captains face, as he walks to his ready room. He sighs one time and follows him, taking another quick look around the bridge.::

@ACTION: The CSO is knocked back easily, and hard.

 CEO Strauss says:
::shakes his head:: EO: Alright, take over here. Fit the chair and have it done before the Commander returns. I'll return to Engineering.
Figure says:
@CSO: The unborn child has been removed.
CSO Lt York says:
@::falls down on his back harshly screaming:: Figure: I will kill you !!
CO Capt MacAllister says:
::sits behind his desk and waits for the door to close after Zoran::
CSO Lt York says:
@::tries to stand up and take a swing at the figure::
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::As the door closes behind him, he carefully walks to a free chair and looks at the captain for a quick moment, before sitting down.:: CO: Something on your mind Ethan?
CSO Lt York says:
@Figure: You bloody Romulan turd!
XO Lt Rokar says:
::looks over at the CNS:: CNS: You must be Counselor Solaa, I am Doc- er, Lieutenant Ro'kar, the ship's new XO ::offers his hand in the Terran greeting::
 CEO Strauss says:
::arrives back in Main Engineering and heads for his Office....hoping to have a chance to look over some of the information Starfleet sent them on the technology stranding Jonathan somewhere out there and hopefully coming up with a way to bring him back::
CO Capt MacAllister says:
CMO: Off the record, I'm concerned about Lieutenant Solaa... in particular how York's disappearance is affecting her in her... condition.
CNS Lt Solaa says:
::brushes her hair out of her face and gives the XO a sort of forced smile:: XO: Good to finally meet you, Lieutenant.
Figure says:
@CSO: Correction. I decide who lives and who dies. Kind of like a God.
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::nods as he gets where the captain is heading.:: CO: I understand what you mean. I already gave her something to calm down a bit.
CSO Lt York says:
@::tears run down his face as he lies on the ground, his legs shaking:: Figure: You....you...you are dead.
Figure says:
@CSO: You speak drivel. You should be thanking me for taking the life of your child at this stage.
XO Lt Rokar says:
::looks concerned:: CNS: I...I understand that this is a tough time for you ::clears his throat:: CNS: I also know i am the new kid here, but if you require the assistance of a former CMO, I will behappy to help
CO Capt MacAllister says:
CMO: It's bad enough that York is MIA and had she been anyone else I wouldn't be so worried but there's more than just her own health at risk here.
CSO Lt York says:
@Figure: Thanking you?? THANKING YOU?? ::leaps up from a crouching position right for the figure screaming::
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
CO: Obviously. I can have her in sickbay for some regular routine checks if you want to. That way I can try and keep an eye on her and give her a little something to calm down if needed.
Figure says:
@CSO: That is no way to treat a God. ::knocks him down again:: If you do not co-operate fully, One-Zero-Three will perish as well.
CSO Lt York says:
@::sobs as he curls into a ball::

ACTION: The Warbird makes a 180 and starts heading out of the system the way it came in.

Figure says:
@CSO: Tell us more about MacAllister.
CO Capt MacAllister says:
CMO: I think she might feel better if she felt she was contributing to the return of her baby's father.
CSO Lt York says:
@::starts mumbling something, as if he's talking to himself...arguing really::
CNS Lt Solaa says:
XO: That won't be necessary, but thank you.
XO Lt Rokar says:
::notices a blip:: SO: Science report
 EO Jim says:
::finishes installing the CMOs new chair and heads down to Engineering:: Self: Jim did a good job.
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::nods:: CO:Okay... might help. I am not a counsellor here of course, but how do I fit into this story? How would you like me to help? I doubt she is fit for any away missions of any kind.
Figure says:
@CSO: Speak.
CSO Lt York says:
@::snaps out of it and looks up:: Figure: Tom...Tom Marsland? Is that you?
CO Capt MacAllister says:
CMO: A counsellor no, but you are her doctor... I need to know if she is physically fit enough to perform her duties and that the medication you are giving her isn't going to impare her judgement in any way.
OPS_Ens_Yor`KiE says:
XO: Sir I think the probe was altered, like.
Figure says:
@CSO: Bill? No, I forgot you don't like Bill... William...

ACTION: The Warbird leaves the system.

CSO Lt York says:
@Figure: Tom..am I dead? you are dead...I remember.
 SO Andrews says:
XO: Looks like the warbird is doing an about-face and leaving.
Figure says:
@CSO: Dead... ::laughs:: No...
OPS_Ens_Yor`KiE says:
XO: And now it's running with its tail between its legs.
CSO Lt York says:
@::starts bumping his head against the wall in a steady rythm::
XO Lt Rokar says:
OPS: What do you mean modified, Ensign?
CSO Lt York says:
@Figure: Did you come back to take Rynia away from me ?
OPS_Ens_Yor`KiE says:
XO: Just modified. Until we get closer, I can't tell you nothing.
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
CO: Of that you can be certain. She is very well capable of performing her or any other duty that doesn't require firing weapons aboard the ship. If she has to make some kind of judgement regarding medicational subscriptions, I would like to be consulted as well, other than that. She'll do just fine I'm sure.
CSO Lt York says:
@Figure: She didn't love you! she loves me.....me...::starts laughing::
Figure says:
@CSO: Love you? HA! She begged them to get that...that child of yours out so she could be with me again.
XO Lt Rokar says:
OPS: Understood. ::turns to flight ops:: FCO/SO: Helm take us slightly closer to the probe, Science let me know if you detect anything strange or out of the ordinary
CO Capt MacAllister says:
CMO: That's good to hear. I'd hate to have to relieve her of duty... otherwise she may and up needing to see a counsellor herself.
CSO Lt York says:
@Figure: NO! You are lying you weak pathetic excuse of a man! You bleeding bastard! ::stands up and points a finger at him:: I will kill you for this...SHOW ME WHERE SHE IS!!!
CSO Lt York says:
@::picks up the empty canteen and throws it at him::
Figure says:
@CSO: She doesn't want to see you again. Ever. She took MacAllisters advice.
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::Smiles:: CO: Rather difficult given the current situation. But even still, I will keep an eye on her. If there is something regarding the counsellor, please let me know. I'd rather be there myself than one of my staff.
OPS_Ens_Yor`KiE says:
XO/FCO: We'll need to get pretty close. The probe has some tough shielding around it. ::Pauses.:: That'll do it. ::Throws up the messages.:: There's audio there. ::Also punches up the encryption codes it has.::
CSO Lt York says:
@Figure: What?......What do you mean MacAllister's advice?...
CO Capt MacAllister says:
::nods:: CMO:Keep an eye on the situation, I'll leave it in your hands.
 FCO Fl'er says:
XO: Aye aye, Lieutenant ::starts moving closer to the probe::
 SO Andrews says:
XO: Sir.
OPS_Ens_Yor`KiE says:
XO/FCO: That'll do it. ::Throws up the messages.:: There's audio there. ::Also punches up the encryption codes it has.::
Figure says:
@CSO: Oh come on, Bill, what do you think Ethan said to her... what she needed to be told. That she can do better than you; that she doesn't need someone she needs to carry around. She needs someone who can love her and support her; someone like me!
SO Andrews says:
XO: My team managed to retrieve more data from the buoy.
XO Lt Rokar says:
OPS: Can you decrypt the messages?
OPS_Ens_Yor`KiE says:
XO: Already on it, Sirrr. ::Is rapidly tapping away.::
XO Lt Rokar says:
SO: What do you have so far?
CSO Lt York says:
<SO_Andrews>XO: We found the location of the message origin, a system further out into unexplored space - the Jurani sector.
CO Capt MacAllister says:
CMO: Can you send her in on your way back to sickbay?
OPS_Ens_Yor`KiE says:
XO: I have a base pairing sequence.
XO Lt Rokar says:
OPS: Base pairing sequence? So it is DNA?
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
CO: Alright, will do. I take it I am dismissed then? ::Rises slightly from his chair.::
OPS_Ens_Yor`KiE says:
XO: This is highly advanced encryption codeing. I'm going to need more time.
CSO Lt York says:
@Figure: That twit......I knew it. He hates me....how does he know you? Are you two working together to take Rynia away from me? ::his mind slipping deeper and deeper into the darkness, losing grip of what is real::
OPS_Ens_Yor`KiE says:
XO: It could be DNA, RNA, even a language sequence for the UT, or all or none of the above.
XO Lt Rokar says:
SO: Can you pinpoint where in the Jurani sector?
CO Capt MacAllister says:
::nods:: CMO: Yeah off you go. ::grins::

ACTION: The message is cleared up and is played over the comm. "Relay Buoy malfunction; Confirm One-Eight-Delta, Phase 2. Commence with Phase 2."

 SO Andrews says:
XO: No ma'am. Sorry, this is all we can get off the data.
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::Smiles.:: CO; Oh by the way... and off the records. When this mission is over, we need to catch up on some old times. ::Doesn't wait for an answer and walks straight out onto the bridge.::
XO Lt Rokar says:
Self: So we would need to follow the breadcrumbs further...
CSO Lt York says:
@Figure: I will kill him....I will kill you! AND HIM!
CO Capt MacAllister says:
::watches the CMO leave and smiles shaking his head before going to the replicator for a coffee::
XO Lt Rokar says:
::listens to the message:: Aloud: Does Phase 2 mean anything to anyone?
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::As he walks onto the bridge, he spots the counsellor and walks over to her.:: CNS: Lieutenant? The captain has requested your pressence in the ready room.
Figure says:
@CSO: Working together? Well it was MacAllisters idea, but I have to hand it to the man... Rynia... wow... her smooth skin, her soft hair...
OPS_Ens_Yor`KiE says:
XO: Perhaps a weaponary test? 
CSO Lt York says:
@::screams:: Figure: LEAVE HER ALONE! YOU DON'T DESERVER HER! YOU GAVE UP...YOU KILLED YOURSELF! ::starts laughing:: YOU ARE DEAD.......dead....wait. Tom why are you not dead? You were dead...I know it....I saw it...::looks confused::
XO Lt Rokar says:
OPS: A weaponry test? What carrier data is associated with the message, Ensign? Any clues there?
CNS Lt Solaa says:
CMO: Thank you, Doctor. ::gets out of her chair and walks to the Ready Room and rings the chime::
OPS_Ens_Yor`KiE says:
XO: It has a Starfleet Intelligence signitory line.
Figure says:
@CSO: You confused, poor man. I suppose anyone would be after losing Rynia, such a fine woman. And the baby too... wow.
CO Capt MacAllister says:
::sits back down with his hot coffee and looks toward the door:: Door: Come.
XO Lt Rokar says:
OPS: Starfleet Intelligence? Any idea why the Romulans were modifying it then?
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::Sighs, pulls up his pants and wonders if he had gained some weight over the last couple of weeks and then looks over the bridge once more.::
CNS Lt Solaa says:
::enters the Ready Room, her face as blank as a canvas:: CO: Yes, Captain?
OPS_Ens_Yor`KiE says:
XO: I would guess they want to spy back on us?
CO Capt MacAllister says:
CNS: Take a seat Lieutenant.
CSO Lt York says:
@::starts crying again:: Figure: Why? Why did MacAllister.....and you? We are in love! Why? I will kill you both....I will bloody well murder you!
CNS Lt Solaa says:
::sits down::
OPS_Ens_Yor`KiE says:
XO: From the sensory data I have, they were checking to see if it sent anything out, as if they missed a reply.
Figure says:
@::seems different now, a different person:: CSO: Lieutenant! Stand to attention!
CSO Lt York says:
@::snaps out of it:: Figure: What? ::tries to stand up straight::
Figure says:
@CSO: Come on, they don't call me Captain for nothing now. Get up on your wee feet there.
CO Capt MacAllister says:
CNS: Did you have a chance to look through Yor`KiE's psych profile?
XO Lt Rokar says:
OPS: Are there any Romulan trace marks on the message? I remember a smart Operations officer telling me that every message contained almost a unique identity
CSO Lt York says:
@Figure: Where's Tom? ::looks very confused:: Captain? Captain? Can I get some water?
CNS Lt Solaa says:
CO: Yes.
OPS_Ens_Yor`KiE says:
XO: Checking... Stand by.
OPS_Ens_Yor`KiE says:
XO: You are correct. ::Raises a brow.::
CO Capt MacAllister says:
CNS: Did you find any possible reason for his behaviour on the station?
Figure says:
 @CSO: Water? No. I am simply here to inform you that Solaa's transfer has been approved. Ah I need to correct myself there; not Solaa anymore. Rynia Marsland.
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::While on the bridge, he walks around a bit, trying not to disturb anyone, looking at the different consoles and tries not to think back to his time as executive officer.::
XO Lt Rokar says:
OPS: And are there any other previous message fragments?
CSO Lt York says:
@Figure: What? No...where? Where is she going? ::puts a hand against the wall to steady himself...his body too weak to stand much longer::
OPS_Ens_Yor`KiE says:
XO: I am not detecting any at this time. But the probe does seem to have had some data deleted.
Figure says:
@CSO: Something about a long romantic honeymoon on Risa... After that, I am not too sure.
XO Lt Rokar says:
::notices the CMO:: CMO: Commander, would you like to take a seat? ::gestures at the vacant CNS' chair::
CNS Lt Solaa says:
CO: From what I can see, he's desperate for attention. Any kind of attention, both positive and negative. That coupled with an extreme lack of self-control set him off. Also, it seems that he does not understand how alcohol affects his system.
CSO Lt York says:
@Captain: Captain you have to help me....the Romulans...and MacAllister and....Marsland. They are all working together..
OPS_Ens_Yor`KiE says:
XO: All I can tell you is confirmation of the SO's. It originated from Jurani.
Figure says:
@CSO: Working with the Romulans? No man with the name MacAllister is a traitor! If Rynia left you it is because you weren't enough.
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::Looks at the XO, then the counsellor's chair and back at the XO as he shakes his head.:: XO: Thank... er... Sir. I'd rather stand. It's just a little... strange being back up here. Been a while you know. ::tries to smile::
CSO Lt York says:
@Figure: That's not true....she loves me. ::turns around and throws up::
CO Capt MacAllister says:
CNS: Any suggestions about how we can deal with his... attention seeking? I'd rather not have to confine him to quarters or the brig for the rest of his tour on the Scimitar.
Figure says:
@::suddenly different again:: CSO: It's not true, my love... dont listen to them!
XO Lt Rokar says:
CMO: I see ::nods in recognition:: I know what it is like being down in Sickbay ::smiles slightly back::
CSO Lt York says:
@::falls down, his back against the wall....too weak to move anymore:: Figure: Ryn....pet? Where are you, I can't.....can't see you.
OPS_Ens_Yor`KiE says:
XO: At this time, I believe my advice would be to go there, Sir.
Figure says:
@CSO: Do you remember the Apache... the day of the accident. You woke up and looked up at me.
CNS Lt Solaa says:
CO: I would say that he needs constant monitoring especially during shore leave and possible sessions educating him on the effects of alcohol on his system. Apparently, he has not been taught the fundamentals. 
CSO Lt York says:
@::smiles:: Figure: You were there to help me....
CO Capt MacAllister says:
CNS: Could you arrange that?
CSO Lt York says:
@Figure: Is our daughter alright?
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::Sighs and looks up for a moment:: XO: You know... I have started my carreer on this ship, down in sickbay. And even though it was nice to be here in the bridge, I somehow feel more at home down in sickbay.
XO Lt Rokar says:
*CO*: Doct- ::pauses and winces:: Lieutenant Ro'kar to Captain MacAllister
Figure says:
@CSO: Now I need you to help me... I love you... don't listen... but MacAllister... it hurts... ::desperation in the voice::
CO Capt MacAllister says:
::holds his hand up to stop the CNS before she answers:: *XO*: Go ahead Lieutenant.
CSO Lt York says:
@Figure: What did he do to you??
Figure says:
@CSO: He hurts me... tells me lies... says he needs me, wants me... he makes me do things I don't want to do... I... ::sobbing:: I need you to save me...
XO Lt Rokar says:
*CO*: Captain, we have traced the signal of a message found on the probe to the Jurani sector, I require your permission as CO to warp out of the system to pursue it
CSO Lt York says:
@::tries to stand up but can't:: Figure: I will kill him....he won't touch you I promise! Rynia...love...I'm so sorry.::cries:: Tom is helping him....I will kill them both.
Figure says:
@::kneels down, holds the CSOs head to the chest and strokes his hair:: CSO: I know you'll come... you won't listen to the lies they feed you... I love you...
OPS_Ens_Yor`KiE says:
XO: At this time, I believe my advice would be to go there, Sir.
CO Capt MacAllister says:
*XO*: is it the source or destination of the message?
CSO Lt York says:
@Figure: I love you too.

@ACTION: The Figure fades away with whispers of "I love You, William."

CSO Lt York says:
@Figure: I will take care of MacAllister...don't worry my pet.....he won't live to touch you again!
XO Lt Rokar says:
*CO*: Source sir
CO Capt MacAllister says:
*XO*: That's a start... let's go check it out.
CSO Lt York says:
@::goes crawling looking for that canteen....hoping there's more water whilst he goes through possible scenarios in his mind on how to kill MacAllister and Marsland..::
CO Capt MacAllister says:
::looks back up at the CNS as if to signal her to continue::
CNS Lt Solaa says:
CO: If you would like me to do it, sir, then I will.
CO Capt MacAllister says:
CNS: Thank you Lieutenant. Dismissed.
CSO Lt York says:
@::starts talking to himself, then looks up:: Bill: Bill...I knew you would come to help me? Of all the men in the galaxy Bill Davis. ::laughs:: Thank you my friend......yes....yes...I know. Marsland is behind it....yes...Rynia told you? ::laughs:: We will kill him together
XO Lt Rokar says:
FCO: Set a course for the Jurani sector, bearing the location of that message
CSO Lt York says:
@Bill: Can you get me out?......no? Ok, not yet.....alright we will come up with a plan...I'm sorry they got you too....yes it's just like the time on shoreleave in San Fransisco.
XO Lt Rokar says:
OPS: I want you to continue running background diagnostics on that message, just in case we find something while enroute
CO Capt MacAllister says:
::Stops the CNS before she leaves:: CNS: Lieutenant...
CMO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::Sees that everyone is very busy on the bridge and decides to leave. He heads towards the turbolift and takes one quick peek before he steps into it and orders it down to sickbay.::
 FCO Fl'er says:
XO: Aye, Lieutenant, setting a course now
CSO_Lt_York_ says:
@Bill: Do you have any water?
XO Lt Rokar says:
::sits back in his chair and watches his readouts on his console::
CNS Lt Solaa says:
::turns to the CO:: CO: Yes?
CO Capt MacAllister says:
CNS: We will get him back... I promise.
