Last time on the Seleya:

The majority of the crew met with the captain and first officer to fill them in on the current situation.  Once done, the crew continued with their various tasks.  A week passed with things going smoothly.  No military appeared to be following up on the CTO and SO as they play out the role of a couple in the evening and after a few days, began to take care of the arrival site of the Udundians.

The CEO, TO & SO worked out a plan that would cause the distraction Ta'hal wanted that would not harm anyone, with the CEO and SO using their position to get into the palace before the event to set up.

The CO and CIV continue to make themselves comfortable and accepted in the religious community with the ambassador making even more progress within the tight circle of the royal family. OPS and FCO continue to help out with the various groups as the XO digs himself deeper into the more interesting aspects of the T'naehmshaile.

With a week left before the event, it is now early morning; the time folks begin to rise to start their day...

Captain's log, Stardate 11102.27. We are 1 week away from our deadline. Plans are proceeding smoothly but there are still a few important details to put in place ...

<<<<<<<<<< The Last Ones:  Fates Rising >>>>>>>>>>

SO Lt Rose says:
::In bed, the covers over her head as she sleeps.::
TO_LtJG_Truus says:
::In the kitchen, making breakfast::
CO Capt Gomes says:
::Enters the kitchen:: TO: Good morning Lt.
XO Cmdr Maor says:
::In the kitchen, waiting for his breakfast::
TO LtJG Truus says:
CO: Morning Captain. 
CO Capt Gomes says:
::Turns as she notices Maor:: XO: Commander
XO Cmdr Maor says:
::Nods at the direction of the Captain:: CO: Waiting for your breakfast too, I imagine? 
CO Capt Gomes says:
::Goes to the pseudo coffee maker and makes herself some, then glances at the TO, smiling:: XO: I am sure it will be on the table shortly
XO Cmdr Maor says:
CO: It better. ::Mutters inaudibly::
TO LtJG Truus says:
::Nods:: XO: It's almost ready.
CO Capt Gomes says:
::Takes her cup and sits next to the XO:: XO: Have you seen the Envoy?
CO Capt Gomes says:
::Sips the pseudo coffee from the pseudo coffee maker. It is still terrible, but getting better. Or is that just her taste buds adapting?::
Amb Envoy Savar says:
::Outside in a secluded part of their yard, meditating in the early morning ::
XO Cmdr Maor says:
::Glances around:: CO: Can't say that I have since our little staring contest. Frankly, the guy scares me to hell. And I've seen things you'd never imagine. 
CO Capt Gomes says:
XO: He is ... private. I want to get an update from him. Would you like to be there as well?
TO LtJG Truus says:
::Smiles and brings plates to the XO and CO - eggs from a native bird, bread, fruit juice, and meat from the local market::
CO Capt Gomes says:
TO: Thank you Lt. Truus. It looks good.
SO Lt Rose says:
::As the smell of breakfast makes its way into her small but hers only bedroom, she sticks her nose outside of the blanket, noting the colder weather and groans, pulling the blanket back over her head.::
TO LtJG Truus says:
CO/XO: Hope you enjoy. ::goes to see who else is awake::
CEO Ens McKnight says:
::Enters the kitchen::
XO Cmdr Maor says:
::Eyes his eggs suspiciously:: TO: We're not talking about the birds that look like Earth's version of the Dodo, are we?
Amb Envoy Savar says:
::Opens his eyes as the sun begins to warm on his side.  He takes a final deep breath and stands, collecting himself, and walks back to the house ::
CO Capt Gomes says:
::Nods at the CEO:: CEO: Good Morning Ensign
XO Cmdr Maor says:
TO: Because I'm pretty sure I saw one of them eating their own.. ::Thinks of a proper word to use:: Filth. 
CEO Ens McKnight says:
::Looks around the kitchen and mumbles:: CO: Morning....::exits the kitchen mumbling something about being late::
CO Capt Gomes says:
::Glances at the XO, then goes back to her food::
TO LtJG Truus says:
::Smirks a little:: XO: No. Just try it, will you?
XO Cmdr Maor says:
::Watches the CEO leave:: CO: What's his problem?
TO LtJG Truus says:
::Follows McKnight:: CEO: What are you late for?
Amb Envoy Savar says:
::Passing through the house, he follows the sounds of conversation to the kitchen, finding it living up to its status as social center during feeding times ::
CEO Ens McKnight says:
::Makes his way upstairs:: TO: Not late yet, but looking like we'll be late for work.
TO LtJG Truus says:
::Checks the time:: CEO: Gah, you're right. ::Runs back to have a quick meal::
CEO Ens McKnight says:
::Reaches Brianna's room and knocks on the door::
CO Capt Gomes says:
::Shrugs:: XO: Each sentient being is unique. As long as he gets the job done, I don't care about his quirks. ::Glances up at the approaching CIV::
XO Cmdr Maor says:
::Notices the newest arrival to the room:: CIV: I was wondering where you were hiding, Ambassador Envoy.
SO Lt Rose says:
::Hearing the knock, grabs the pillow and pulls it over her head, grumbling.::  CEO: Go away, no one's home.
Amb Envoy Savar says:
XO: I had not hidden myself anywhere, except for beyond the view of the public.
CO Capt Gomes says:
CIV: Good Morning Ambassadorial Envoy
TO LtJG Truus says:
::Takes a plate and eats:: XO: See? It's not bad.
CEO Ens McKnight says:
::Knocks again:: SO: We'll be late for work.
Amb Envoy Savar says:
CO: Captain.
CO Capt Gomes says:
::Finishes her food:: CIV: Will you be eating now? I would like to talk with you.
TO LtJG Truus says:
::offers a plate to Savar:: CIV: Breakfast?
XO Cmdr Maor says:
::Coughs:: TO: At least now I know what to do with you when we'll come back, cooking detail instead of waste management. ::Considers:: Or maybe a little of both.
SO Lt Rose says:
::Pulling her head out she looks blearily at the chronometer and groans again.::  CEO:  I will be right there... :: under her breath:: maybe.
TO LtJG Truus says:
XO: Do your worst. I can take it. ::Smiles and stands::
Amb Envoy Savar says:
:: Glances at the plate - animal proteins... :: TO: No, thank you.
CEO Ens McKnight says:
::Waits by the door to make sure she didn't just say that to get rid of him::
SO Lt Rose says:
:: Simply stares up at the ceiling::
TO LtJG Truus says:
::Shrugs at Savar and goes to get dressed::
CO Capt Gomes says:
::Gets up to leave her plate wherever the dirty dishes go and stands drinking her coffee and waiting for the CIV's response::
CEO Ens McKnight says:
::Listens and frowns:: SO: Do I have to come in there?
SO Lt Rose says:
::Turns to glare at the door.::  CEO:  And if I said yes?
Amb Envoy Savar says:
::Gets a fresh plate and places a sampling of breads and fruits on it ::  CO: What is it you wish to talk about with me?
SO Lt Rose says:
::With a sigh, tosses the covers back and shivers as the heat escapes.  She begins to climb out of the bed.::
CEO Ens McKnight says:
::Pauses:: SO: Only one way to find out.
SO Lt Rose says:
CEO:  I'm comin...
CO Capt Gomes says:
CIV: I would like an update on your progress. We also need to sketch a plan for the gala night.
CEO Ens McKnight says:
::Hears the sound of movement and wipes his brow:: Self: Whew that was close.
SO L Rose says:
::Goes to the closet and quickly grabs some clothes to pull on in the chilly room.::
SO Lt Rose says:
::Shoes next, she is out the door and heading for the bathing room.::
Amb Envoy Savar says:
CO: Of course.  Would you prefer to talk elsewhere, or here?
CO Capt Gomes says:
::Looks around seeing only the XO remaining and takes a seat in front of the CIV:: CIV: We can talk here. But if you prefer I can wait for you to finish your meal.
TO LtJG Truus says:
::Returns from his room in his work clothes:: All: I'm off to see Ta'hal. 
CO Capt Gomes says:
TO: Godspeed Lt.
TO LtJG Truus says:
::Nods and saunters outside::
SO Lt Rose says:
::Quickly finishing her ambulation, she glares at her bloodshot eyes in the mirror just before her stomach growls.::
Amb Envoy Savar says:
CO: This shall be sufficient.  ::Begins to cut up the food on his plate with his utensils ::  Did you have any specific questions first?
CO Capt Gomes says:
CIV: Yes but I would prefer if you first delivered a general report of your movements and what you have learned.
Amb Envoy Savar says:
CO: I believe the most important piece of information is that I have determined the source of our incredibly coincidental standing with the rulers of this place.
TO LtJG Truus says:
@::Walks out to a bus stop and begins his commute to the temple::
SO Lt Rose says:
::Coming out of the bathing room she sees Jake::  CEO:  Humans were not meant to live off of two hours of sleep.  This triple life is going to kill me.  ::Hearing her stomach growl again she sighs.::
CEO Ens McKnight says:
::Shrugs:: SO: Well let’s hope we won’t be here much longer and things are back to normal
CO Cap Gomes says:
::Frowns slightly at the ambassador:: CIV: Go on.
SO Lt Rose says:
::Smiles::  CEO:  Life was normal on a ship?  ::Heads down the stairs.::  How much time do we have?  And have you had breakfast yet?
Amb Envoy Savar says:
CO: The Emperor's grandniece, E'tum, is well liked and respected amongst the rulers of this world.  I have encountered her on several occasions, and have found her to be worthy of her reputation.  She also, apparently, has developed a romantic attraction to me.
CEO Ens McKnight says:
::Follows the SO:: SO: More normal to me anyway. ::Shakes his head:: I haven't eaten yet.
SO Lt Rose says:
CEO:  Do we have time to eat like civilized people or is this a grab and run?
CEO Ens McKnight says:
::Checks the time:: SO: I'd say grab and run.
TO LtJG Truus says:
@::Arrives at the temple and goes to meet Ta'hal::
CO Capt Gomes says:
::Fights off a smile:: CIV: I see. That is a most fortunate coincidence which we may be able to use to our advantage.
Ta`hal says:
@::Standing outside the steps, breathing in the cold air.  It looked like spring would be late coming this year.::
TO LtJG Truus says:
@::Greets the priest with a small smile:: Ta'hal: How are you today?
CO Capt Gomes says:
CIV/XO: That will give us more liberty of movement once we get close to the assassination. We still don't know how it will happen but I still expect we can stop it.
Amb Envoy Savar says:
CO: It already has been to our advantage.  I confirmed that the invitations to the royal gala came on her behest.
CO Capt Gomes says:
::Nods::
SO Lt Rose says:
::Entering the kitchen she heads for the pantry to grab some bread.::  CEO:  I am making sandwiches, what do you want on yours?
CEO Ens McKnight says:
SO: I'm not sure....I trust your judgment on what makes a good sandwich ::Grins::
Ta`hal says:
@::Smiles::  TO:  Fine my friend.  It is a chilly day, but the air is clear.  Come, have you had breakfast already?
CO Capt Gomes says:
XO: Any thoughts on the matter?
SO Lt Rose says:
CEO:  Well, that makes it easier to make.  I am just tossing whatever was made for breakfast onto them then.  We will have to get lunch later.
TO LtJG Truus says:
@Ta'hal: I have, but thanks for asking. What's our business today?
XO Cmdr Maor says:
CO: We do have the advantage of knowing what will happen, I'm just afraid some of us were compromised and would draw unneeded attention to ourselves. We need to watch out for any signs we're being led somehow.
SO Lt Rose says:
::Finished tossing whatever was in sight that might go on a sandwich, she then quickly wraps them.::  CEO:  If you will grab something to drink, we are ready to go.  Bus or our vehicle?
CO Capt Gomes says:
XO:  Me and the Ambassadorial Envoy should still be clean, unless this house is compromised as well. I believe the 2 of us should be the only ones showing our faces at the party. Anyone else going, like the CEO and TO, should go undercover...meaning...without an invitation.
CO Capt Gomes says:
XO/CIV:  My major concern is how we coordinate the party teams with Mr. Heller's team. We need to be in contact but we can't draw attention to ourselves on either side.
XO Cmdr Maor says:
::Nods in agreement:: CO, CIV: I believe I'll try my luck with a few of the politicians I was able to befriend. I can't be sure but I'm pretty sure the amount of money I spent here will assure my anonymity.
Ta`hal says:
@TO:  Beyond the usual?  ::He lowers his voice::  There is a meeting later with Lah'so to discuss our plans.
CEO Ens McKnight says:
::Takes what appears to be a thermal beaker from the cupboard and fills it with tea:: SO: Bus, don't think the CTO would be happy with us taking the car.
TO LtJG Truus says:
@::Nods:: Ta'hal: I would be honored to attend.
Amb Envoy Savar says:
CO/XO: I am inclined to agree with the Captain at this moment.  The government has had the opportunity to detain us at any point up until now, and I have not detected any hindrance or undue observation of myself.
SO Lt Rose says:
::Sighs as she finishes securing their sandwiches with a napkin and heads for the entry way and her coat.::  CEO:  Grab my padd will you?  It has the palace lay out.
CO Capt Gomes says:
XO:  And what do you expect to gain from these politicians?
CEO Ens McKnight says:
::Looks around:: SO: Where is your padd?
CO Capt Gomes says:
::Nods at the CIV::
XO Cmdr Maor says:
CO: To know if any of them are in on it, perhaps it was an inside job.
Ta`hal says:
@::Sighs::  TO:  You were not exactly given a choice.  But come, let us take care of those who need us and wait for her.
TO LtJG Truus says:
@Ta'hal: I'll follow your lead.
SO Lt Rose says:
::Putting down the sandwiches to slip her arms through the coat sleeves::  CEO:  It should be by your computer.
Ta`hal says:
@::Smiles and heads toward the kitchen area were the less fortunate wait to be served a meal.::
CO Cap Gomes says:
XO: Do you have any evidence to support that? If the CEO's contact in the government?
CEO Ens McKnight says:
::Nods and quickly makes his way into the basement::
TO LtJG Truus says:
@Ta'hal: Is the soup already prepared?
SO Lt Rose says:
::Buttoning the coat, she pulls the gloves out of her pocket and slips them on.  Then taking the sandwiches, she patiently waits for the CEO to return.::
XO Cmdr Maor says:
::Shakes his head:: CO: Nothing I can voice out loud yet but I am working on it.
CEO Ens McKnight says:
::Exits the basement and makes his way to Brianna::
CO Capt Gomes says:
XO: Good. Coordinate with the CEO and TO to get more names from the expansionists.
XO Cmdr Maor says:
::Nods in understanding::
CEO Ens McKnight says:
SO: Here you go ::Hands Brianna her Padd::
SO Lt Rose says:
::With a nod of thanks, she puts it in her pocket and heads out the door.::
TO LtJG Truus says:
@::Prepares the soup and begins serving bowls to the people gathered there::
CEO Ens McKnight says:
::Quickly throws on his coat and gloves and follows Brianna::
CO Capt Gomes says:
CIV: From what you have learned, do you also have reasons to think the expansionists have infiltrated the government or the royal family?
SO Lt Rose says:
::Moving quickly to keep warm, she follows the path they usually do on leaving.  And just ahead she sees their transport.::  Ahhh... shoot...  ::Hurries.::
CEO Ens McKnight says:
::Spots the transport and starts to run::
CO Capt Gomes says:
::Finishes her coffee, which is pretty cold by now::
Amb Envoy Savar says:
CO: I do not have anything that would conclusively make me consider that option.  However, in a more passive role such as a religious adviser, those who wish not to be discovered may not seek out my company.
SO Lt Rose says:
::Slightly out of breath, she grabs the door frame and swings aboard.::
CEO Ens McKnight says:
::Climbs on board the transport and takes a deep breath:: SO: Nothing like a brisk morning jog...I'm feeling oddly active this morning.
CO Capt Gomes says:
::Nods at the CIV, then turns to the XO:: XO: Do what you can. And you have to decide where you will be more useful at the Assassination Day...let us call it A-Day.
TO LtJG Truus says:
@::Looks at Ta'hal while distributing food:: Ta'hal: I remember when I was one of these people. Thank you again for taking me in.
CO Capt Gomes says:
XO: I want you to coordinate the three parties but I am not sure from where you can do it most efficiently
XO Cmdr Maor says:
CO: Original. Again, it's just a hunch. ::Waits for the Captain's second order:: No problem, Captain. I'm sure I'll manage.
SO Lt Rose says:
::Slumps down into the chair and hands him his sandwich::  CEO:  Maybe... but... :: says nothing more as they are among the public,  She takes a big bite of her sandwich.::
CO Capt Gomes says:
XO: I don't want you to just manage. I want you to tell me. Tomorrow. ::Gets up:: CIV/XO: Thank you gentleman. I am expected at Temple in half an hour. I will see you later today. ::nods and leaves::
XO Cmdr Maor says:
::Watches the CO leave:: CIV: And I thought you were scary.
Ta`hal says:
@TO:  The honor was all mine, my friend.  You have been a blessing as you well know.  ::Hands out a plate to one of the less unfortunate.::
CEO Ens McKnight says:
::Accepts the sandwich and sits beside Brianna:: SO: I picked tea over coffee ::motions to the beaker::
