USS Seleya - Stardate 9905.09

Host Cheryl_ says:
Summary:  The missing Away Team members have been recovered; Bolitho first, who then managed to lock onto and beam Counsellor Moore aboard the Seleya.  The "terrorist" Zareen, however, is still a prisoner in the Z’karin slave mines; her fate unknown.  The terrorists, based on the asteroid, are co-operating with the Seleya crew;

Host Cheryl_ says:
Two shuttlecraft from Seleya, with crew, are on the asteroid.

Cns_Moore says:
CO: Yes Sir but I must make a plea for the recovery of this movement's leader she has been captured and beaten by Z’karin authorities who caught us ::takes a seat a little weary and flustered::

Host CO_Pang says:
::nods in acknowledgement at Moore's thoughts ....turns her head towards Vn'dor::

CTO_Vn`dor says:
CO: Ma'am.  The 'Freedom Fighters' on the Asteroid have told us much of the same.   They have also given me the co-ordinates to one of the major underground slave mines.  I think we should do something for these people if it's true.

CE_Bolitho says:
EO: Dario, I think it was the last phaser blast ::smiles::

Cns_Moore says:
::feels a tug at his heart the one he feels when Angelique is crying::

EO_Susman says:
CE: Heh. --  CO: Lt. Susman, reporting, sir.

Cns_Moore says:
Pang: Kay Lee may I be excused for a little while? ::whispers::

Host CO_Pang says:
CTO: Noted ... CSO - what have you learned from your interview with Mr. Muk?

FCO_Mallory says:
CO: ma'am, if we interfere, is it not against the prime directive?

Host Muk says:
::waits quietly, listening, under guard::

CE_Bolitho says:
::stumbles over and sits in one of the chairs felling a little woozy::

Host CO_Pang says:
::notices Bolitho's arrival - says nothing::

CSO_K`daq says:
CO: Zareen was the only one who had contact with who ever helped them.... they also wished for the identity to remain secret

Host CO_Pang says:
All: And, from what Lt Moore says ...,Zareen is in captivity .... is that right?

EO_Susman says:
:: stays stood ::

OPS_Urk says:
::notes maintenance crews are now doing routine work on shuttles::

CSO_K`daq says:
CO: aye sir

CTO_Vn`dor says:
::looks to the CNS for answer to Zareen's captivity::

OPS_Urk says:

Host CO_Pang says:
*OPS*  Be prepared to open a channel to Prime Minister Jaddo ....

Cns_Moore says:
CO: That is correct she was held in the same cell as me when Bolitho beamed me out, she was in very bad shape

OPS_Urk says:
*CO* comm channel ready ma'am.

CMO-Troi says:
CO: My only comments are that both sides have presented a poor example of themselves.  At this point, I don't know who to believe or trust.  I think each side should be taken with a grain of salt, so to speak.  There appears to be atrocities on both sides.

CE_Bolitho says:
::tries to get up to speed with the interrogation, while evilly glaring at Muk::

FCO_Mallory says:
CO: are you sure that this is our place to interfere?

Host CO_Pang says:
CMO: I agree ... the truth is hard to establish here ...

CTO_Vn`dor says:
CMO: Doctor?  The fight for freedom sometimes calls for harsh methods

Host Muk says:
::stares back impassively at Bolitho::

CMO-Troi says:
CO: Perhaps there is no truth to discover.  Perhaps we are being used as pawns.

Host CO_Pang says:
Mr. Muk:  As I understand things ... you caused massive damage at several places on Z'kar ... how was that justified?

Cns_Moore says:
CMO: If I may say o Ma'am I have witnessed the horrible truth

Host Muk says:
Captain:  We damaged only the instruments of technology, that which the government is using for their purposes.

Host CO_Pang says:
CNS:  Craig ... please be calm .... it seems both sides here are suspect

CMO-Troi says:
CNS: I understand counsellor, I am not disagreeing with what you saw.  Both sides are out of control on this.

Cns_Moore says:
CO: Agreed

OPS_Urk says:
COMM:PM Jaddo: please stand by for Captain Pang.

Jaddo says:
@COM: Seleya: This is the Z’karin Governmental Answering Systems. We are sorry, but .... Prime Minister Jaddo .... is busy attending to governmental functions.  At the tone, please leave a message and .... Prime Minister Jaddo .... will get back to you just as soon as his duties to the people of Z’karin allow.  Thank you.  *BEEP*

Cns_Moore says:
::tired, just wants to get back to his pregnant wife::

Host CO_Pang says:
*OPS* Open a channel to SFC ..... and send the recording of what is currently being discussed in the OL::

OPS_Urk says:
::eyes widen at message::

OPS_Urk says:
*CO* will do

CE_Bolitho says:
::leans back in his seat, suddenly felling very tired::

OPS_Urk says:
::open Comm to SF HQ, links comm of conversation in Observation Lounge::

Host CO_Pang says:
All:  So ... what are our options ... as far as I see it .... we can interfere or persuade the Z'kar government to ease up .... give me options please!

Cns_Moore says:
CO: I think we need to hear from Zareen

CMO-Troi says:
CO: Maam, I don't like the feeling of either side.  I think this is one situation we should walk away from.  This is a no win scenario!

CTO_Vn`dor says:
CO: Maybe some pressure from SF?  These people are bound to adhere to SF protocols.

FCO_Mallory says:
CO: further investigation on both sides is needed before we can make a full judgement

CE_Bolitho says:
::sits up:: CO: Ma'am we can suspend their membership until a full investigation has taken place!

EO_Susman says:
CO: I agree. We need to know both part to establish our next action. 

Cns_Moore says:
CO: Ease up is not the word you don't "ease up" on slave mining and genetic testing

Host CO_Pang says:
CSO: Can we identify Zareen from the transporter logs when she and Moore went down planet from the asteroid base?

CSO_K`daq says:
::runs finger along edge of mek'leth:: CO: I don't see why not

Cns_Moore says:
::frustrated::

OPS_Urk says:
::looks a view screen, "answering service" my blue arse:: (editing note - Mr. Urk is Bolian and being perfectly truthful)

Host CO_Pang says:
CSO: Do it .... in the interim - you are right .... the Federation does not take kindly to slavers ....

Cns_Moore says:
CSO: You may have trouble with shielding and cloaking devices

Host CO_Pang says:
CNS:  I propose, assuming we can contact the government to threaten them with the Federation ... how do you suppose they will react?

FCO_Mallory says:
CSO, CNS: so send someone down there...

CE_Bolitho says:
::sits back again gets comfortable in the chair::

Cns_Moore says:
CO: They will probably deny it and make it worse for Zareen who is in their captivity

CSO_K`daq says:
Muk: Do you have info on what frequencies their shields modulate and anything else we could use?

Host CO_Pang says:
*OPS* Send a breakthrough we know you are there message and get Jaddo on screen NOW!!!

Jaddo says:
@::closes the channel he was talking on and notes an attempt made from the Federation ship in orbit.  Quickly opens the visual with the Seleya:: COM: Seleya: Prime Minister Jaddo here, Captain. What may I assist you with.  The kind, peace loving Z’karin people are here but to serve the Federation.

Host CO_Pang says:
::nods at those in the OL and walks back to the bridge::

Host Muk says:
K'daq:  We have that information.  However, they may have modified it.  They obviously discovered we had access through their systems, else they would not have been able to capture Zareen so easily.

Host CO_Pang says:
::stands up straight .... looks the screen straight in the eye and says:: COMM Jaddo: Prime Minister ... so nice that I can talk with you again ::smiles::

OPS_Urk says:
COMM:PM: thank you, please stand by

CE_Bolitho says:

Jaddo says:

CMO-Troi says:

Jaddo says:
@::sets a wine goblet he was sipping from down on his desk:: COM: Seleya: I am sorry Captain, what was that?  Our comm. systems are not nearly as complex as Starfleet’s.  I did not hear you right.  I thought you said slave activity.  Perhaps in the future the Federation can help us upgrade our comm. systems so these misunderstanding do not occur.

Host CO_Pang says:

Muk: I want you to observe... if you notice anything they've used against you before, shout.

Angelique says:
:: makes herself presentable them  goes to the lounge::

CMO-Troi says:
::sits down in the XO chair, notices an incoming communiqué from SFC::

Jaddo says:
@::frowns:: COM: Seleya:: Well I assure you, Captain.  I have not seen any such reports.  We have not had a slavery movement on Z’kar in nearly 200 hundred years.  ::arches his fingers in front of him:: This is likely just a convincing ploy by one of our ..... less interested ..... factions.

CE_Bolitho says:
::steps out onto the bridge looks around for Dario::

FCO_Mallory says:
::thinks how its a shame that he can see properly into the ministers room::

CMO-Troi says:
::doesn't want to disturb the CO and reads the message::

Host Muk says:
::arrives on bridge with K'daq::  We have detected patterns in their shielding frequencies; we can try to predict any changes they have made.....

OPS_Urk says:
::ensures comm is being recorded for SFH::

CMO-Troi says:
*EO*: Please report to me on the bridge.

Host CO_Pang says:
COMM: Jaddo:  Prime Minister ... it seems we have a tactical problem ...., several photon torpedoes seem to have got aimed at your security headquarters ... I cannot think how that could have happened and will endeavour to get them un-aimed ... please answer my original question

Host CO_Pang says:
CTO: Got that?

CSO_K`daq says:
Muk: Be my guest.... ::gestures toward console::

Cns_Moore says:
::sees Angelique::

EO_Susman says:
*CMO*: acknowledged, sir. :: walks out the Observations Lounge, going to the bridge ::

CTO_Vn`dor says:
::grins at the CO's last comment and sets Torpedoes::

FCO_Mallory says:
::Watches as the CO's blood pressure and pulse steadily rise::

CMO-Troi says:
::all right Kay Lee::

Host Muk says:
::smiles at K'daq::  Here, I'll enter the changes on a PADD; I'd prefer not to alter your consoles....

Host CO_Pang says:
::tries not to grin::

CTO_Vn`dor says:
CO: Aye ma'am, trying to remove lock from their HQ

Cns_Moore says:
::starts to cry out of joy and frustration::

Jaddo says:
@::frowns deeper:: COM: Seleya: Why Captain ........ are you threatening me? ::truly shocked:: That is rather .... undiplomatic of you.  I have answered your questions.  If you have any more, feel free to call on me. I am after all the Federations humble servant.  Jaddo Out. ::closes channel::

CE_Bolitho says:
::did I hear that correctly? Photon torpedo's armed::

Angelique says:
:: comes and sits across the table from Craig::

EO_Susman says:
:: enters the bridge and closes to Doctor Starr :: CMO: Did you call me, commander?

Host CO_Pang says:
COMM: Jaddo: We are having difficulty in disestablishing the lock .... we are not, of course, making any sort of threat

CSO_K`daq says:
::smiles at the captains threat:: Muk: Thank you... ::enters frequencies and commences scanning::

CTO_Vn`dor says:
::looks at the CO in surprise at the PM's response::

Cns_Moore says:
::starts to cry out of joy and frustration::

Host Muk says:
::takes a PADD and enters the modifications, handing them to K'daq::

OPS_Urk says:
::attempts to re-establish Comm:: CO: he shut down comm at his end.

Jaddo says:
@::gets up from his desk truly disappointed in Captain Pang::

Host CO_Pang says:
OPS: Watch out for a shuttle leaving the planet sharpish ...

Angelique says:
Craig why are you crying? :: takes his hand across the table::

CMO-Troi says:
EO: Yes Susman, I have an order here from SFC that you are now in charge of operations.  Would you relieve Urk and take over his duties please.

Cns_Moore says:
Angelique: I'm sorry I had to rush off like that. How far along are you?

FCO_Mallory says:
::walks back to his trusty helm console::

Cns_Moore says:
Angelique: I am exhausted but at the same time happy

OPS_Urk says:
CO: noted. ::scans for planet activity::

CE_Bolitho says:
::moves over to the Eng. station and activates it::

EO_Susman says:
CMO: Surely. Thanks for the notice, commander :: walks to the OPS panel ::

CTO_Vn`dor says:
CO: What now ma'am?

EO_Susman says:
:: stands aside the OPS panel ::

Host CO_Pang says:
::shrugs as Jaddo disappears from the screen:: CTO: We wait I think ... but slavery cannot be tolerated in a Federated Member ...

CMO-Troi says:
CO: Maam, we can have a torpedo disarmed with minimal fire power and explode it right before it hits the surface.

Jaddo says:
@::sends a quick communiqué to the Minister of Defence, by courier, that the Federation knows about the Slave Mines::

OPS_Urk says:
::turns at Susman's arrival:: EO: it's yours sir, any questions?

CMO-Troi says:
CO: that should get his attention!

EO_Susman says:
Urk: I don't think so. What was your last duty at OPS?

Host CO_Pang says:
CMO: Troi ... I prefer not to do that .... if we can avoid conflict we have to try

OPS_Urk says:
EO: scanning for any planet launches sir

CTO_Vn`dor says:
CMO: That might be going a little overboard.  SF would have our heads

CMO-Troi says:
CO: Kay Lee, you raised, now call his bluff!

Cns_Moore says:
::dries his tears:; Angelique: How about some food huh? I'm starved ::fake enthusiasm::

CE_Bolitho says:
CSO: Cmdr. I was able to beam out the Cns from under the shields want me to have a go and trying to get Zareen out?

CSO_K`daq says:
CO: I have a fuzzy lock on Zareen.... I don't know how long it will stay and I don't know if we can transport with it

Angelique says:
Craig I’m 12 weeks along I'm surprised you didn't notice before.  I guess   fate had a little surprise for us.  I didn't think we wanted this s early

Host CO_Pang says:
CMO:  I think we called it ... he is on the run maybe?

EO_Susman says:
Urk: Ok. you can continue that duty from the Mission OPS Panel, on the aft stations. Thanks for all.

CSO_K`daq says:
CE: Please

Host CO_Pang says:
OPS: Anything from SFC yet?

Ens_Urk says:
::nods:: OPS: will do sir.

CE_Bolitho says:
::nods at the CSO:: moves over to his station

OPS_Susman says:
:: sits :: CO: Nothing yet, Captain

CMO-Troi says:
CO: I don't think so Kay Lee.  An explosion just above the mines would certainly show him we mean business.

Cns_Moore says:
Angelique: I did notice a glow but I wasn't sure what it was. I am very happy the faster the better ::smiles genuinely::

Angelique says:
Craig  you order  I work here so it doesn't matter to me  ::smiles trying to get him to smile but it's not working well::

Host CO_Pang says:
::goes back to the command chair and waits::

Host Muk says:
::watches as the crew works to get Zareen back::

Ens_Urk says:
::moves to aft bridge Ops station::

Jaddo says:
@::goes over some documents from the Federation and calls in an aide.  Drafts a letter of complaint about Captain Pang's communiqués to him and amends a further prostration of there interest in serving the Federation.  Further requests the Seleya be removed from this assignment due to the Captain's bias and a new ship be sent to complete it::

Angelique says:
Craig:  now you tell me ...  but  at least we know in 6 months   we will have a bundle of our own, but  I wanted to just be with you.

Jaddo says:
@::immediately::

Cns_Moore says:
Angelique: I don't know what I want all I know is that if I don't eat I'll pass out any ideas?

Host CO_Pang says:
Muk: Mr. Muk: .... You know that we cannot intervene under our operational rules .... how can we help you without terrorism?

CTO_Vn`dor says:
::feels helpless since he's not on AT anymore doing something about this::

CE_Bolitho says:
::chats to himself ignoring the stare from the Klingon Cmdr.:: Lets see I increased power here.......::

OPS_Susman says:
:: receives a note from Starfleet Command :: CO: I have received a notification from Starfleet telling that they received the message, Captain.

Angelique says:
Craig:  the vegetarian  lasagne is good

Host CO_Pang says:
OPS: And?

Host Muk says:
::looks at the captain::  Our attacks are the only recourse we have had, the only actions they understand.........

OPS_Susman says:
CO: Nothing else.

Cns_Moore says:
Angelique: Sounds good ::smiles::

CSO_K`daq says:
::blinks blankly at Bolitho::

FCO_Mallory says:
CO: how about an infiltration team?

CE_Bolitho says:
CSO: Try now Cmdr. I have compensated for the shield technology in use by the Z'karians

Jaddo says:
@::assures that it is copied to the Federation Council, the Federation President, and the Ambassador to this Sector::

CTO_Vn`dor says:
CO: What if we led a team down to the mines to remove the slaves?

Host Muk says:
::holds hands up at sides, a gesture of helplessness::  They don't understand anything else, captain..........

CSO_K`daq says:
::attempts to beam Zareen to the Seleya::

Angelique says:
Craig:  then order it silly .  And say something..  all you have done is cry  since you sat down.

Cns_Moore says:
Angelique: All I really wanted as time to be with you but you know I have a duty to my Captain and SF and as much as I hate it sometimes they have to come first I know it will take time to get used to

CTO_Vn`dor says:
CO: have to agree with Muk on this point.  The Cardassians were the same

Host CO_Pang says:
ALL:  Well ... we were asked to help here .... the help seems to have identified something else much nastier ..... we cannot do much more without breaking all the rules .... Mr. Muk .... if it were just me I would break the rules .... but it is not just me ... this is Starfleet

Host Muk says:
ACTION:  the beam-out is successful, the badly beaten body of Zareen materialises in the transporter room

CSO_K`daq says:
CO: We have her, sir

OPS_Susman says:
CSO: Someone is in the transporter room 1.

Cns_Moore says:
::orders his food and eats it quickly::

Host CO_Pang says:
::wants to do a hippy dance ... refrains::

CE_Bolitho says:
*CMO* Medical emergency ::beams Zareen into sickbay::

Cns_Moore says:
*CO* What is the status of the attempt to beam out Zareen?

Angelique says:
Craig:  I just don't want to  be a widow at 19, and have to raise our child alone.    I don’t' think I could handle losing you like that

CSO_K`daq says:
Sickbay: Get to TR1 now!

CMO-Troi says:
CO: Have to go, permission to leave the bridge?

Host CO_Pang says:
CMO: Go!

CSO_K`daq says:
CO: Her life signs are weak

Jaddo says:
@::receives word that a prisoner was beamed out of one of the camps ..... Zareen ...... cringes and sits at his desk draining the goblet and going over his cover for this.  Orders his press secretary in to draft a news release::

Cns_Moore says:
Angelique: The only thing that kept me going was the thought of seeing you again

CMO-Troi says:
::jumps out of the chair:: Ops: site to site beam out, to sickbay please!

Angelique says:
::squeezes  his hand tightly::

OPS_Susman says:
CMO: Right now

Host CO_Pang says:
OPS:  Broadcast a message to Prime Minister Jaddo ... on all channels ... : Glad we could help ... no doubt the Federation will be in touch!

CMO-Troi says:
::disappears from the bridge and reappears in sickbay;:

OPS_Susman :: transports the CMO to Sickbay :: (beam_out.wav)

Cns_Moore says:
::returns the squeeze::

Ens_Urk says:
::realises that his short tour on the bridge is over.  Now back to the mysteries of engineering::
