The crew of the Seleya are in the midst of many mysteries at the moment.

On the world of Andreik, a team is investigating why the future-seeing Augurs are unable to predict anything anymore. So far, the investigation has turned up nothing ... so now they may try different routes to get an answer.

Back on the ship, the rest of the crew are looking into a peculiar drop in ODN efficiency throughout the ship. The capable engineering and operations staff is looking into the situation.

Governor Arcasia says: 
::Stands up, and takes the CO's hand, shaking it:: CO: A pleasure to meet you Commander. This is my close friend, Liv Enam - Director of the Church of Recurrent Tragedy.

Andreikan says: 
@ MO: I'm not sure, miss. I was only told to bring you to your crew.

Augur #1 says: 
@ CTO: There are thousands of possibilities, Ensign. We can't see everyone.

MO Dr Knight-Sky says: 
@ Andreikan: Understood.  Please, lead the way.

SEC 1 says: 
@::approaches the MO and Andreikan:: MO: Miss, I've been asked to escort you also.

OPS Lt Pandora says: 
::Notices an imbalance in the navigational deflector array, wondering what is causing it:: *CEO*: Pandora to Hume.. We're showing an imbalance in the Navigational Deflector.. Any idea what might be causing that?

MO Dr Knight-Sky says: 
@ :: Looks from one to the other:: SEC/Andreikan: I am to go with... which of you or...?

CTO Ens Redwood says: 
@ Augur 1: I can understand that, but this was a HUGE event. I can understand not seeing next week’s lottery numbers, but something so important... Do you think that something or someone had a way of blocking this particular future from being seen?

Tech says: 
::looks up at Tana:: EO: Nothing yet, sir. We're not finding any explanation for the throughput problems.

CIV Yn1 Ivanova says: 
::Watches the Captain for a moment, narrowing her eyes in thought. Sighing, she takes a last look at the arranges table before dismissing the crewman::

Governor Arcasia says: 
::Both Arcasia and Enam sit down::

SEC 1 says: 
@MO: I will simply accompany you

CEO Ens Hume says: 
*EO*: How you getting on up there Mr Tana?

Governor Arcasia says: 
CO: I understand, Commander. That's why we've come to speak to you...

EO Ens Tana says: 
::frowns at the conundrum:: Tech: Well, let’s finish up and then we'll move on to Nine.

CO Cmdr Gomes says: 
::nods:: Governor: I must say I am curious. Your visit is unexpected; else I would have been better prepared

MO Dr Knight-Sky says: 
@ Sec !: Understood.  :: Turns toward Andreikan to follow him.  It never hurt on a strange world in a strange situation to clarify things.::

CEO Ens Hume says: 
*EO*: Have you done something up there? I'm reading that ODN efficiency has just returned to normal.

Andreikan says: 
@ ::Walks with the security officer and the MO, and guides them to the room where the CTO and the Augurs are::

EO Ens Tana says: 
::started to get up, when he hears the equipment beep, glancing quickly at the testing device::

CO Cmdr Gomes says: 
::looks around for the TO and the CIV, making sure they are keeping up appearances, then back at the two guests::

Augur #1 says: 
@ CTO: It's a possibility.

EO Ens Tana says: 
*CEO*: No sir. We've just been continuing our tests. What happened?

CIV Yn1 Ivanova says: 
::Assumes her usual place behind the Captain, observing the conversation with idle interest while waiting for the perfect moment to interject to the conversation::

MO Dr Knight-Sky says: 
@ :: Nods her head in greeting to the CTO::

TO Ens Goran says: 
::Studies the Governor and Enam for weapons of any kind::

Governor Arcasia says: 
CO: I represent a large portion of the populace of Andreik, Commander. They who are understandably concerned with the recent developments with the Augurs. Their lack of ... cooperation has been most distressing. Now suddenly a Sovereign class Starfleet vessel has arrived, and its crew is working at the Magii Center.

Governor Arcasia says: 
CO: I'm here to determine if our fears are warranted.

CTO Ens Redwood says: 
@ ::acknowledges the MO:: Augur_1: Is there any records of the possible futures?

CEO Ens Hume says: 
*OPS*: Sorry Lieutenant I've got a team running sweeps on deck 15. That could be causing the problem; we'll be done in a few minutes.

Augur #1 says: 
@ CTO: Our computer systems document what we see ... yes.

MO Dr Knight-Sky says: 
@ :: Listening, not wanting to interrupt, she looks around while she waits.::

CEO Ens Hume says: 
*EO*: I don't know yet, I'll look into it. In the mean time continue with the sweeps, this may not last.

CTO Ens Redwood says: 
@ Augur_1: So, the Augurs...they don't sift through them all personally, they record them and someone else does that part?

Augur #1 says: 
@ CTO: The computers document and sort them accordingly.

OPS Lt Pandora says: 
::Frowns, wondering why he did not pick it up earlier:: *CEO*:That... That's not so good chief; I gave specific order to keep it to a single deck at a time... I want you to stop immediately before things start to break even more...

EO Ens Tana says: 
::waits for the answer and asks the tech if there's been any change in the submolecular readings, finding none:: *CEO*: Yes sir. But we haven't found the problem yet. Either the problem fixed itself, or one of the other teams found it.

MO Dr Knight-Sky says: 
@ :: Wonders according to what?::

CTO Ens Redwood says: 
@ Augur_1: And who has access to the computer files?

CO Cmdr Gomes says: 
Governor: I understand your people's concerns. I saw them myself when I was at the Magii center. However, our visit here is not to interfere in your personal affairs, that’s not Starfleet's job. We are here simply because we’re close and needed the opportunity to rest and at the same time pay our respects to the Federation's commercial hub in the area. If we can help, we certainly will. We can also bring any message you would like to transmit back to Starfleet Command

Augur #1 says: 
@ CTO: Appropriate personnel here at the Magii Center.

SEC 1 says: 
@::returns to his post::

CTO Ens Redwood says: 
@ Augur_1: And they would be?

Augur #1 says: 
@ CTO: Us. Master Vicey. Computer maintenance personnel. Counselors.

CIV Yn1 Ivanova says: 
::Lowers her head closer to the Captain's ear, lowering her voice to one of a whisper:: CO: May I offer our guests refreshments, Captain?

EO Ens. Y'dren says: 
*CEO*: Sir?

EO Ens Tana says: 
::frowns:: Beta Team: There's nothing here. Lets close this up and move on. Emma? Put that back when they're clear.

Liv Enam says: 
::The Kaelon friend leans forward:: CO: Commander ...

CTO Ens Redwood says: 
@ Augur_1: I trust there is a list of such people available for further study? It's one possibility that someone buried this possibility so no one would be ready for it

CEO Ens Hume says: 
*EO*: Ydren's team hasn't found anything yet, and whilst it may have fixed itself I want to be sure that it isn't going to drop back again. Continue the sweeps Mr Tana.

CO Cmdr Gomes says: 
::takes a cup of tea from one of Ivanova's selections, she has a feeling she will need it. How to extract information from these people without blowing the cover?::

EMMA says: 
::adjusts the grip on the access panel and moves into a position to replace it::

TO Ens Goran says: 
::Tenses when Liv Enam leans forward::

Augur #1 says: 
@ CTO: Well, yes. But you would have to speak to Master Vicey about releasing that information.

CO Cmdr Gomes says: 
Enam: Yes Mr Enam?

TO Ens Goran says: 
Enam: Sir, could you please remain seated

Liv Enam says: 
CO: We at the Church of Recurrent Tragedy feel that great events strike worlds and people's often ... intentionally caused by a greater power. Adversity breeds change. There are signs and portents that such great change awaits Andreik. If the Augurs know something, it would be in everyone's best interest for them to tell the truth.

CEO Ens Hume says: 
*OPS*: Alright, I'll tell the second team to finish up. Hume out.

CTO Ens Redwood says: 
@ Augur_1: So, Master Vicey has the final authority on all of this information? A bit dangerous giving so much power to one man in my opinion. Any chance I could speak to him immediately?

EO Ens Tana says: 
::helps remove the submolecular scanner and haul it out of the access bay while the robot replaces the heavy deck plate:;

MO Dr Knight-Sky says: 
@ Augur/CTO: Excuse me gentlemen, as this part has little to do with me, could you take me to whom I should be address or working with?

Augur #1 says: 
@ CTO: Well I'm sure he's around here somewhere.

CTO Ens Redwood says: 
@ ::quietly:: MO: I wish I knew Doctor...I wish I did

Liv Enam says: 
::Leans back as per the tense TO's request::

EO Ens Tana says: 
::checks to make sure everything is back working, and then walks back over to the intercom:: *Deck 8*: This is Engineering Beta Team. The test is completed. ODN service should be back online. Thank you for your patience. ::closes the com and taps his badge::

MO Dr Knight-Sky says: 
@ :: Lifts a brow at the CTO::

EO Ens Tana says: 
*CEO*: Tana to Hume. Sir, we're done on Deck 8.

CO Cmdr Gomes says: 
::nods:: Enam: you are quiet correct, often changes cause revolutions who's ultimate conclusion we cannot foreseen. You are very lucky to have the Augurs to guide you, most civilizations don't. Can you be more precise as to why do you think such a great catastrophe is upon you?

CIV Yn1 Ivanova says: 
::Moves the tray with the various refreshments towards the two visitors, not making any sound::

CTO Ens Redwood says: 
@ ::moves over to a console in the room and hits a few buttons:: Augur_1: Which of you has prepared for the mind-meld?

CEO Ens Hume says: 
*EO Ydren*: Yes Ensign?

CTO Ens Redwood says: 
@ *Vicey*: Ensign Redwood to Master Vicey

EO Ens. Y'dren says: 
*CEO*: We may have found something. There seems to be an increase in ODN access usage in a personal quarters on Deck 15. It was only noticed now when access was fully cut off to the deck. It was somehow hidden from us ... I'm not sure how though...

Master Vicey says: 
@ *CTO* This is Vicey.

CEO Ens Hume says: 
*EO*: Good work Tana, proceed to deck 9.

EO Ens Tana says: 
Beta Team: Let’s move on. ::walks with them down to the turbolift and enters first, standing at the back. Emma positioning herself protectively in front of him:: TL: Deck 9.

OPS Lt Pandora says: 
::Pulls up the communications data as a red light suddenly pops up in that field, and looks at what may be our problem::

CTO Ens Redwood says: 
@ *Vicey*: Master Vicey, I would like to speak with you, if you would be so kind as to spare a few moments of your time.

CEO Ens Hume says: 
*EO Y'dren*: Good work Ensign, can you tell me who the quarters belong to?

CTO Ens Redwood says: 
@::looks to the Augur:: MO: I guess it's just take your pick... One word though. If you go ahead with the mind-meld I need you to be able to break it at a moment’s notice

CEO Ens Hume says: 
*EO*: Belay my last order Mr Tana, Ydren has found something. Just sit tight for a moment.

MO Dr Knight-Sky says: 
@ CTO: That is not always the wisest course.  However, I will keep it in mind.

MO Dr Knight-Sky says: 
@ :: At touch of humour dances in her eyes.::  CTO: No pun intended.

Augur #1 says: 
@ CTO: I am willing.

EO Ens Tana says: 
*CEO*: We're already on 9 but we haven't begun yet. What's she found?

EO Ens. Y'dren says: 
*CEO* The Farsons, sir.

CTO Ens Redwood says: 
@ MO: I understand, but the safety of the away team is my highest priority. If the demonstration turns violent, I am not taking any chances

EO Ens. Y'dren says: 
*CEO* Lieutenant Junior Grade David Farson, one of our engineers, assigned to core maintenance. He lives there with his son, Gabe.

MO Dr Knight-Sky says: 
@ CTO: I should be in a quiet room, undisturbed.  I would offer to have one of my medical staff come down, but we seem to be short of nurses at this moment due to their needing time off.

OPS Lt Pandora says: 
*CEO*: Pandora to Hume.. Chief, I found some odd readings in our subspace communications array... Some sort of unexplainable background noise... It's not natural from what I can tell..

CTO Ens Redwood says: 
@ MO: Take your pick of rooms, but do not move anywhere without a security officer close by

CEO Ens Hume says: 
*EO*: She says that Dave Farson's quarters on deck 15 are responsible for the drop in ODN efficiency.

Liv Enam says: 
::Looks to the Governor, then back:: CO: Rumour has it the Augurs experienced something two years ago. They've been put into even more seclusion than usual. It only stands to chance that they saw something horrific. In addition, there have been subtle changes to this world...

Master Vicey says: 
@ *CTO* Certainly, Ensign, I was just seeing the Chancellor out. I will be with you momentarily.

MO Dr Knight-Sky says: 
@ :: Looks to the Augur for a decision, as this is his place, not hers.::

CTO Ens Redwood says: 
@ *Vicey*: You're too kind. Thank you. ::hates diplomacy::

CEO Ens Hume says: 
*Ydren*: Good work Ensign, finish up where you are, Ensign Tana will continue with the sweeps and I'll pay Mr Farson a visit. Return to Main Engineering when you're ready.

Augur #1 says: 
@ MO: My personal quarters are nearby. ::Gestures::

EO Ens. Y'dren says: 
*CEO* Aye, sir. I actually think Lieutenant Farson is on duty right now ...

EO Ens Tana says: 
*CEO*: Do you want me to continue here?

CTO Ens Redwood says: 
@ ::gestures to the SEC officer to always accompany the MO, not wanting to take a risk::

CO Cmdr Gomes says: 
Enam: I will be honest with you. I do not understand how the Augurs' prescience works but I do understand how important it is to Andreik. The Augurs know how important they are to you and I am sure if they had seen something so bad, they would have done everything to prevent it. Nonetheless, what subtle changes are these? Perhaps we can help interpret them.

CEO Ens Hume says: 
*Tana*: Yes please Kavli, I'll find Farson and you finish the sweeps.

MO Dr Knight-Sky says: 
@ Augur 1: That would actually be best.  Please... I shall follow.

CTO Ens Redwood says: 
@ ::patiently waits for Master Vicey, and sends an update on mission progress to the Seleya::

CEO Ens Hume says: 
*OPS*: Understood, could it be a message? Hidden in the background noise?

SEC 2 says: 
@ ::accompanies the MO and Augur::

EO Ens Tana says: 
*CEO*: Yes sir. Tana out.

Augur #1 says: 
@ ::Nods to his fellows, and proceeds on to his quarters with the MO. Miraculously managing to navigate with a cloth bound over his eyes::

EO Ens Tana says: 
::waves the team on::

MO Dr Knight-Sky says: 
@ :: As they leave the room::  Augur 1:  I understand that your abilities have either been blocked or suddenly stopped.  But you have no idea of which it is.  And this all came about because...

OPS Lt Pandora says: 
*CEO*: It appears there has been a continuous stream of personal data from the ship.. Right now, it is directed at G-Beta-Gamma 29 beacon... Data patterns suggest some sort of continuous update stream, though data quantities do not match with this...

Augur #1 says: 
@ MO: Of whatever occurred two years ago.

CIV Yn1 Ivanova says: 
::Slowly edges her way towards the TO, while still keeping the Captain in her line of sight::

CEO Ens Hume says: 
*OPS*: Is it possible to trace the source of the transmissions on board?

OPS Lt Pandora says: 
*CEO*: Stand by... ::Taps his console to start a trace on the transmission::

MO Dr Knight-Sky says: 
@ :: Follows him into the room along with the security officer.  She motions the officer to stand by the door and to remain silent.:: Augur 1: What can you tell me of two years ago?

TO Ens Goran says: 
::Looks at CIV Ivanova curiously::

Liv Enam says: 
::Narrows eyes:: CO: Commander, why do I get the distinct feeling that you're trying to keep us busy?

Governor Arcasia says: 
::Raises her hand:: Enam: Now, now, Liv. Let's not insult the Captain. She was kind enough to see us. And if this is a Starfleet matter, then it's a Starfleet matter.

TO Ens Goran says: 
:: Stands ready for action::

CEO Ens Hume says: 
*OPS*: Ensign Ydren found that ODN efficiency dropped because a member of my engineering team has been placing too high a demand on the system from his quarters on deck 15.

CTO Ens Redwood says: 
@ ::trundles around the room, growing impatient:: Self: Politicians...pfft

CIV Yn1 Ivanova says: 
::Smiles sweetly at the TO's direction and lowers her voice:: TO: I haven't seen you around here. New? ::Watches his facial reaction curiously, frowning she turns at the sound of the raised voices:: Uh oh..

Liv Enam says: 
::Calms himself::

CO Cmdr Gomes says: 
::starts to look slightly offended at Enam, then talks to the two::Enam/Governor: You came here to talk to me, I am just trying to understand your concerns and see where we can help

Liv Enam says: 
CO: My apologies, the people of this world ... they just need answers. Answers my Church, and our faith, have tried to provide them. They need more.

TO Ens Goran says: 
::Stands down slightly, whispers to Ivanova:: CIV: Yes Ensign Goran

EO Ens Tana says: 
::goes through the motions on 9, not confident they'll find anything:: ::can't help thinking about 15. The initial problem was strongest on 14, at the time::

CO Cmdr Gomes says: 
Enam: And I am sure your Church could do a lot in calming the population, to give them faith. I saw some groups were getting very violent near the Magii center. The last thing Andreik needs is a civil war

OPS Lt Pandora says: 
::Looks at the displayed data:: *CEO*: That would match what I found here... Quarters are port side, number 15-12... Name of Farson... I'm going to block the transmission for now..

Augur #1 says: 
@ MO: I do not remember much of the event. It was a routine day. Fifteen of us were at work, sifting through the futures. Then suddenly, a blinding pain ... and some of us were dead, some of us were in a coma. It is not known to many, but the Augurs ... do to the unique nature of our work ... share an almost symbiotic connection each other.

CTO Ens Redwood says: 
@ ::grows tired of waiting and goes to the console again to see just how secure the information is::

OPS Lt Pandora says: 
*CEO*: That is, going to block it from being sent... But I'll let the data flow continue for now to a fake destination.. See whether we can get any more information from it..

Governor Arcasia says: 
::Frowns:: CO: That is a peaceful demonstration, Commander. No violence has occurred.

CEO Ens Hume says: 
*OPS*: Understood. Sir, there’s a very real possibility now that Farson could be connected with the device Tana found.

MO Dr Knight-Sky says: 
@ Augur 1: Has anyone tried to access those memories of that incident either through backward regression? or simple hypnosis?

CO Cmdr Gomes says: 
Governor: My apologies if I misinterpreted them, they were very loud. I know the government hasn't given all the answers they sought but you have to assure your people that their leaders are doing the best to keep their well-being

OPS Lt Pandora says: 
::Nods slowly:: *CEO*: Understood.. I'll try not to make it look suspicious just yet... Do you wish to include security, or solve this internally for now?

EO Ens Tana says: 
::closes down on nine:: *CEO* Tana to Hume. Sir, we're done on Nine. Moving on to Ten. Tana out.

CIV Yn1 Ivanova says: 
::Nods, still observing him curiously:: TO: Liking your time on the ship so far, David? ::Grins at his expression:: Don't be alarmed now, I take the time to... personally study the personal files of every new officer.. Especially when they have such an.. interesting past as you have.. ::Grins secretively::

CEO Ens Hume says: 
*OPS*: Let’s keep this to ourselves for now; I need to find out more.

OPS Lt Pandora says: 
*CEO*: We should inform the captain though... She should know, even if we are not yet involving security in this matter...

TO Ens Goran says: 
::Whispering still:: CIV: What would you define interesting as?

CTO Ens Redwood says: 
@ ::checks the security levels of the database::

Governor Arcasia says: 
CO: I see, then. Well thank you for meeting with us, Commander. It's high time we return to the surface.

CEO Ens Hume says: 
*OPS*: That would be wise Lieutenant, I agree.

EO Ens Tana says: 
::carries the submolecular scanner down to Deck 10 with Beta Team::

Master Vicey says: 
@ ::Enters the room the CTO is at:: CTO: Sorry to keep you, Ensign. How can I help you?

OPS Lt Pandora says: 
::Nods slowly:: *CEO*: Alright, good job chief, keep at it.. Report any news to me please... Pandora out..

CTO Ens Redwood says: 
@ Vicey: Ah, Master Vicey. ::stands up politely:: I have a few questions that perhaps you could help me with.

CIV Yn1 Ivanova says: 
TO: One with such an interesting academy record, David... ::Chuckles softly:: I always drawn to the rebel persona.. Quite fetching, in a pure platonic way mind you.

CO Cmdr Gomes says: 
Governor: Can I first ask you a somewhat personal question?

Augur #1 says: 
@ MO: As of yet ... no. Up to now ... most of us have been somewhat hesitant to revisit that day.

OPS Lt Pandora says: 
::Looks around for a moment, before speaking:: Computer: Computer, locate commander Gomes.

Master Vicey says: 
@ ::Smiles pleasantly:: CTO: Of course.

TO Ens Goran says: 
CIV: what did you say your name was? ::Smiles::

Governor Arcasia says: 
::As she stands:: CO: Yes?

CTO Ens Redwood says: 
@ Vicey: I was informed that you have full and final authority over the records from the Augurs?

Liv Enam says: 
::Stands as well, as they plan to leave::

MO Dr Knight-Sky says: 
@ Augur 1: It is always best to try the simplest way before the more complex.  So let us begin with simple hypnosis and work our way back to that day.

Master Vicey says: 
@ CTO: Well, yes. A lot of this information contains personal data about the Augurs, and those whose futures they see ... couldn't let that get into the wrong hands.

CIV Yn1 Ivanova says: 
TO: Rain check, David? ::Gestures towards the raising guests, she moves to stand beside the Captain::

Augur #1 says: 
@ MO: All right, but before we begin ... could I ask you a question?

CO Cmdr Gomes says: 
::stands as well:: Governor: While I was on the surface I was under the impression the governor thought you did not like him much, and in fact would go to great lengths to destroy his credibility. Did I misinterpret your political situation?

CEO Ens Hume says: 
::Stands leaning against a console deep in thought::

Computer says: 
OPS: Commander Gomes is location in Observation Lounge One.

CO Cmdr Gomes says: 
::looks into the Chancellor’s eyes knowing she might have gone too far, but she had to ask::

TO Ens Goran says: 
::Frowns, then laughs to himself, then gets ready to escort the governor and Enam to the shuttle bay::

EO Ens Tana says: 
::unlocks the access panel on 10, helping to lift it out of the way and wrestle the scanners into position::

MO Dr Knight-Sky says: 
@ Augur 1: Yes... :: motions to a comfortable setting.::

CEO Ens Hume says: 
Computer: Computer, where is Lt. Farson currently located?

OPS Lt Pandora says: 
::Nods and gets up from his chair, making his way to the corridor just behind the bridge::

Governor Arcasia says: 
::Smiles:: CO: Chancellor Gruweld is an old man who has a lot of fears, as those of that age do. His future as leader of our people will be, as it always has been, decided by the people.

CTO Ens Redwood says: 
@ Vicey: Precisely my next point. It seems that maybe someone did get their hands on it. I'd like to have a look at all the records of the Augurs, personal information included, and also all information on the staff personnel working in the department

Computer says: 
CEO: Lieutenant Junior Grade Farson is located in Main Engineering.

OPS Lt Pandora says: 
::Takes the few steps to the observation lounge and steps inside, looking around to find the captain::

Master Vicey says: 
@ ::Frowns, for what seems to be the first time ever. So much so that it looks unnatural on his face:: CTO: What leads you to believe that someone has gotten access to that information?

CO Cmdr Gomes says:

::nods to OPS as he arrives:: OPS: Yes I do, once I say my goodbyes to our guests

Governor Arcasia says: 
CO: Of course, Commander. Thank you for having us. ::Holds out her hand::

CIV Yn1 Ivanova says: 
CO: Will you be alright, Captain? ::Crosses her arms behind her back::

CTO Ens Redwood says: 
@ Vicey: Master Vicey, I can understand your concerns but I carry out thorough investigations and overlooking this information would be a major...::pauses but can't think of the word:: mistake. Right now, anything is a possibility. Without sounding accusing Master, I trust that information would include your personal information

TO Ens Goran says: 
Arcasia/Enam: If you would like to follow us this way. ::leads the way out of the observation lounge::

CO Cmdr Gomes says: 
::shakes the Governors hands and then extends her hand to Enam::

CEO Ens Hume says: 
::Ben takes a deep breath, straightens his uniform and rides the lift up to the upper floor::

OPS Lt Pandora says: 
::Waits a moment for the captain to finish up::

Liv Enam says: 
::Takes the CO's hand and steps close:: <W> CO: I am a powerful man, Commander Gomes. I have good friends in the Federation Council and Starfleet Command. Do not make mistakes here. ::There is a cold and disturbing look in his eyes, he lets go of her hand, and walks out::

CO Cmdr Gomes says: 
::smiles sweetly at Enam and watches them leave::

Governor Arcasia says: 
::Exits with Enam, following the TO::

MO Dr Knight-Sky says: 
@ :: Honestly considers the question::  Augur 1: I would never abandon my responsibilities, especially to those dealing with my family.  But responsibilities change as do perspectives.

CO Cmdr Gomes says: 
::takes a deep breath and falls onto a chair:: OPS: Please come in Lieutenant

Augur #1 says: 
@ ::Looks down:: MO: I see.

CEO Ens Hume says: 
::Ben approaches Farson and draws breath:: Farson: Mr Farson, what are you working on there?

TO Ens Goran says: 
::LEads the way Wary Of Enam after the comments made to the CO::

OPS Lt Pandora says: 
::Looks back at the door, shrugs and walks over to the captain, also taking a seat::

CO Cmdr Gomes says: 
CIV: And yes Ivanova I will be fine, extend my courtesies to the guests

EO Ens Tana says: 
::leans against the wall in the corridor while the test runs, wanting to check on the find on 15, but not wanting to bother his superior::

Lt. Jg. Farson says: 
::Looks up, startled:: CEO: Sir! ::Stands abruptly:: Just doing the daily checks on coolant to the warp in-take systems. Is there something I can help you with?

CIV Yn1 Ivanova says: 
::Nods, she quickly catches up with the TO::

CO Cmdr Gomes says: 
OPS: How is the situation?

MO Dr Knight-Sky says: 
@ Augur 1: What is troubling you?

CEO Ens Hume says: 
Farson: Uhh.... actually Lieutenant there is. Are you aware of the problems we've been experiencing in terms of the ODN efficiency?

Augur #1 says: 
@ MO: After all this time ... many of us feel that maybe what happened two years ago was a sign. Maybe we're not meant to do this for the rest of our lives. Maybe there are different paths for us. It just seems that... ::Looks out his window:: ... in this world. In this culture, it would not be accepted of us to just abandon this.

OPS Lt Pandora says: 
::Looks around to make sure they are alone, before starting:: CO: Captain, it looks like we found whoever is responsible for our.. Leak... The engineering teams have located the source of our ODN problems.. And solved it now.. We also picked up a disguised communication link... I managed to block that for now, without leaving a trace of that on the sending end..

Master Vicey says: 
@ CTO: Of course ... of course. I thought it was released with all the other information we provided to your DTI team. If you come with me to my office, I'll get that right to you.

Lt. Jg. Farson says: 
CEO: Yes, I've heard.

OPS Lt Pandora says: 
CO: We're excluding security for now so we can get further into the investigation.. We haven't got full confirmation yet, just a strong suspicion..

CTO Ens Redwood says: 
@ Vicey: Thank you. ::cautiously follows Vicey, a step behind in order to observe his body language::

MO Dr Knight-Sky says: 
@ Augur 1: I can understand that.  And if you can accept that as is, then that should be your choice.  I have to admit though, for me, I would at least want to know... and perhaps even be sure before I make my final decision.

CEO Ens Hume says: 
Farson: and have you any thoughts on what might be the cause?

CO Cmdr Gomes says: 
::shakes her head:: OPS: I was afraid this would blow on our faces. I knew we had had a spy device aboard and ordered the 7 suspects to be observed. If it had not been for this emergency I would have preferred to go back to base and interrogate everyone

Lt. Jg. Farson says: 
::Shakes head, confused at where this is going:: CEO: No, sir. What's going on?

CO Cmdr Gomes says: 
OPS: Who do you suspect?

OPS Lt Pandora says: 
CO: Lieutenant, junior grade, Farson... He's in the engineering team, with access to all systems he needed to use...

CEO Ens Hume says: 
Farson: Mr Farson, I'm going to be completely frank with you and I'd appreciate it if you were honest with me, is that understood?

Lt. Jg. Farson says: 
::A bit worried now:: CEO: Sir, yes, sir!

CTO Ens Redwood says: 
@ ::arrives at the office with Master Vicey:: Vicey: Thank you for your assistance. ::patiently waits for the information::

Governor Arcasia says: 
::The Governor and Enam say nothing more to the TO, as if they're waiting to get down to the surface to speak more on what happened up here. And soon they are gone::

CO Cmdr Gomes says: 
OPS: Do you think there are others working with his aboard?

CEO Ens Hume says: 
Farson: Ensign Ydren has found that the drop in ODN efficiency was a result of a power drain on deck 15. She then traced the source of the drain to your quarters.

CEO Ens Hume says: 
Farson: Your thoughts Mr Farson?

CIV Yn1 Ivanova says: 
TO: Heading my way?

Master Vicey says: 
@ ::Goes around his desk, and starts to access his computer:: CTO: Would you like me to have it put onto a PADD, or transmitted to your vessel?

CO Cmdr Gomes says: 
OPS: I would like him put on the brig as soon as possible. I prefer to hold an innocent for a few days than to have a spy aboard for this mission

CTO Ens Redwood says: 
@ Vicey: Both, if possible please.

OPS Lt Pandora says: 
::Shrugs:: CO: While there are no obvious signs of it at this time, it is possible.. As I said, ODN efficiency is back to normal... And we have no anomalies on our communications listings...

TO Ens Goran says: 
CIV: You still haven’t told me your name

Lt. Jg. Farson says: 
::Looks very surprised:: CEO: I'm not sure what to say, sir ... I barely use our computer. My son Gabe has been using it mostly ... he got a new game or something at Starbase Thirteen during our last stay. It's occupied most of his time.

CIV Yn1 Ivanova says: 
TO: Samantha Ivanova. ::Extends her hand:: nice to meet you, Ensign David Goran.

OPS Lt Pandora says: 
CO: Sir, we are on to him now, chief Hume is probably talking to him now.. I think that, if he is our man, it's better to let him run loose for now... Once again, we are on to him, and we have his communications blocked...

CEO Ens Hume says: 
Farson: Are you absolutely sure you haven't been putting excessive stress on the system?

CO Cmdr Gomes says: 
::nods at OPS:: OPS: Maintain a very close eye on all internal systems. In the mean time, confine Farson to quarters with no access to communications

EO Ens Tana says: 
::is pulled away from his thoughts when EMMA touches his leg:: ::looks up to see the rest of the team waiting for him:: Beta: Okay. Let’s move on to Deck 11. ::heads off with the team to continue the search::

TO Ens Goran says: 
CIV: Samantha ::smiles and shakes her hand::

Lt. Jg. Farson says: 
CEO: Absolutely, sir. What's this about? What's going on?

CEO Ens Hume says: 
Farson: Alright Mr Farson, that'll be all for now.

CO Cmdr Gomes says: 
OPS: Don't tell him why, he doesn't need to know anything yet. As far as he knows he might be put there due to incompetence

CEO Ens Hume says: 
Farson: You may continue with your duties, we will be speaking again very soon.

OPS Lt Pandora says: 
CO: Commander... I really don't think that's a good idea... If he is our man, the only thing we do now is warn him off...

CO Cmdr Gomes says: 
OPS: I do not want to take chances. My order is given

CIV Yn1 Ivanova says: 
TO: I'm sure we'll see a lot of each other in the coming weeks... ::Grins:: Toddles.. ::Waves at his direction as she goes her separate way::

Augur #1 says: 
@ ::Stares out the window:: MO: I think it's time for a change, Doctor Sky. Maybe it's time for us to stop giving people the chance to change their fates. I think we've been punished enough for what we've done.
