USS Artemis - NCC 83093
Mission Transcript
Stardate 10003.10

Host CO_Bryant says:
The Artemis still lost, god knows where is orbiting a tectonically unstable planet that they are attempting to assist with their "more advanced" technology.  But somehow the aliens have "Talents" which allow them to do things that aren't possible.  Right now one of them is meeting with the Captain XO and CEO in the captains ready room.
Meanwhile the CSO is targeting a second barrage of phaser fire to help stabilize the planet.

Host Kiithra says:
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Start Artemis 10003.10>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
CSO_McMer says:
::In the command chair on the bridge:: SO: How is the phaser pattern shaping up?
FCO_Teasley says:
::finally fixes the nav. computer::
CMO_Parker says:
:: scanning a specific area of the bridge for DNA, under CSO orders ::
SO_Donovan says:
CSO: good sir we should be ready anytime now
MO_Zell says:
::sits in sickbay, bored out of his mind::
Host Redara says:
::stands, looking across the room at the XO and CO::
XO_Senn says:
::standing in front of the Captain's desk, beside Redara::
CSO_McMer says:
SO: When the pattern is plugged in pass it to the TO station.
Host CO_Bryant says:
Redara: and Exactly what do you mean by talents?
CMO_Parker says:
CSO: Scans complete...
SO_Donovan says:
CSO: yes sir
MO_Zell says:
::whistles::
Host Redara says:
::looks at the captain, confused by the question::
XO_Senn says:
::sees Redara's confusion:: Redara: You said your people have these talents... could you describe them to us?
CSO_McMer says:
CMO: Good.  What have you found?
CNS_Sodak says:
::walks down corridor to his office....still recovering from his recent performance of the Vulcan Mind Meld::
CMO_Parker says:
CSO: These are definitely alien life forms...
Host Redara says:
XO:  Everyone's talent is different as are yours.... are they not?  Each is person to the individual, though they are on records in the archives.
CSO_McMer says:
CMO: Did you get enough data for a tentative classification?
Mensk says:
::stirring around in Redara's pocket, listening::
XO_Senn says:
Redara: That we are. But it is the first time we find people with talents such as yours... like what you did when you brought us here... or like the crystal ball Kiithra has.
Host EnsZhass says:
::walks into sickbay:: All: Hello?
CMO_Parker says:
CSO: Aye sir... I can add these to the ships logs and medical logs
Host Redara says:
::feels something moving and slips her hand into her pocket, realizing her husband had slipped in before the transfer::
Host CO_Bryant says:
Redara: Exactly what are these Talents?  How do they work?
XO_Senn says:
::glances at Cody, hoping he won't miss a word::
Host CO_Bryant says:
:::Looks incredulous:::  XO: Crystal Ball?
CSO_McMer says:
CMO: Also run the data against the ship's database and see if anyone has ever come across them before.
Mensk says:
::looks up at Redara, squeaks::
Host CO_Bryant says:
:::falls in to his chair not  knowing whether to laugh or call the counselor for the XO::::
CMO_Parker says:
CSO: Aye sir... :: leaves for TL ::
CSO_McMer says:
CMO: You can probably do that from here.
CMO_Parker says:
CSO: I heard some people arrived in Medical bay... i think i need to check it out...
Host Redara says:
::waves her hand negligently::  CO:  The same as yours I would assume.  As for the ball, well, it helps if you have one of the ancient ones.  Mine is recently made and basically useless beyond practice.  No Kitthras ::smiles::
Host EnsZhass says:
::looks around:: All : hello?
FCO_Teasley says:
CSO: I finally got the nav. computer fixed
CSO_McMer says:
CMO: OK, but did you find anything with the prior DNA scan of the explosion sites?
XO_Senn says:
CO: I'll tell you later ::glares at him daring him to laugh... finds the corners of her mouth lifting and tries not to laugh herself::
Host Redara says:
~~~~Mensk:  Husband, are you comfortable?~~~~
CNS_Sodak says:
::Enters office and sits at desk::
Host CO_Bryant says:
Redara: Excuse me..... you're saying that you stare into crystal balls to do these things you do?
Mensk says:
~~~~Redara: Ummmm yes, I couldn't just let you go by yourself.....~~~~
Host Redara says:
::looks indignant::  CO:  Of course not.  The ball is for farseeing.  That is not too unusual a talent.
MO_Zell says:
::sighs::
XO_Senn says:
::walks over to Cody:: CO: I don't know... the crystal ball is how they found out there's life outside their planet.
Host Redara says:
~~~~Mensk:  Thank you my husband, I feel much more secure knowing you are here.  What do you make of these people and there odd questions?~~~~
Host CO_Bryant says:
Redara: So you found us with this crystal ball?
Host EnsZhass says:
::walks up to Zell:: MO : Hello? Could you help me please?
XO_Senn says:
:;turns to Redara:: Redara: Can others use the ball? ::suddenly thinking about certain files in SFM::
CSO_McMer says:
::As the CMO checks his notes:: FCO: Very good, try to figure out where we are.  Attempt an astrological fix.
Host Redara says:
CO:  I did not find you, Kiithra did... I believe.  Kiithra is not very forthcoming on information.
Mensk says:
~~~~Redara: I don't know...apparently they do not have.....talents like we do~~~~
OPS_Hewitt says:
::heads for his good old OPS console::
FCO_Teasley says:
CSO: Yes commander
MO_Zell says:
Zhass:  ::startled:: Um, yes?
XO_Senn says:
::that she had already gathered about Kiithra::
Host Redara says:
XO:  Well, yes... kind of... depends on what?
MO_Zell says:
Zhass: What can I do for you?
XO_Senn says:
Redara: Never mind... it was just curiosity.
CMO_Parker says:
CSO: Only some crew residue... nothing unexpected.
Host Redara says:
::shock crosses her face::  ~~~~Mensk:  Are you sure?~~~~
FCO_Teasley says:
Computer: Locate the nearest Federation starship
Host EnsZhass says:
Zell : Well.. I have been having this pounding head-ache for days.. It just won't go away.. Then with all that business with the explosion, it only got worse..
XO_Senn says:
Redara: We are curious about how you brought us here, and why you didn't come to us to ask for our help instead.
MO_Zell says:
Zhass: Hmm, let me think here..
Mensk says:
~~~~Redara: From their ignorance of what you have been explaining...I would say so.~~~~
Host CO_Bryant says:
Redara: I'm sorry, I know that you don't understand, but these talents that you are describing are an enigma to us.
XO_Senn says:
::looks at Cody hoping she worded the sentence right... if they could find anything to say they won't be breaking the PD by helping them::
CSO_McMer says:
CMO: Run the results against the crew roster and see who all matches.  There may be a clue as to who all was involved.
Host Redara says:
XO:  I did not bring you here.  It was foretold that someone would come and help us... at least that is what I believe that old tale was referring too.  Some people like you came.  I don't know how.  Then they left without helping us at all.  Something about their rules.
MO_Zell says:
::looks around:: Zhass: Lemme see if I have any..
Host Redara says:
~~~~Mensk:  Should I say no more then?~~~~
MO_Zell says:
Self: Aha!
Mensk says:
~~~~Redara: I think it is ok to tell them....~~~~
MO_Zell says:
::grabs some Nirolon-L::
FCO_Teasley says:
::continues the scan::
MO_Zell says:
Zhass: This might make you a little groggy for a while
Host Redara says:
CO:  each talent is according to each individual and their inborn gifts, as well as training.
XO_Senn says:
::whispers:: CO: May I tell her about the rules?
OPS_Hewitt says:
CSO: ::looking around seeing the CTO is not at his post:: Have you seen Mr. Gore?
MO_Zell says:
Zhass: but that's it. Take 2
CMO_Parker says:
CSO: Aye sir. :: walks to the bridge panel and begins working with tricorder ::
Host EnsZhass says:
MO : But.. Aren't you going to scan me or anything?
XO_Senn says:
::whispers:: CO: If we don't tell them... they will not answer our questions and doom themselves ::too concerned::
Host CO_Bryant says:
::::Looks at the XO and shakes his head:::: Redara: so you are saying what you do can be taught?
MO_Zell says:
Zhass: Well, um, that's a good idea. Sorry, I'm a tad nervous
CSO_McMer says:
SO: If the pattern set up is complete, I believe the CO wanted us to continue as needed.  Fire the pattern.
Mensk says:
::looks at Redara::
MO_Zell says:
::scans Zhass::
Host Redara says:
CO:  If you have the potential there, yes....  ::sighs wishing Kiithra was here::
Host EnsZhass says:
::smiles:: MO : First day in alpha shift, huh?
XO_Senn says:
::looks down... closes her eyes, takes a deep breath, and raises her head::
SO_Donovan says:
CSO: yes sir
MO_Zell says:
Zhass: I just saw the readings and the Nirolon should do it. Its stress related, most likely.
MO_Zell says:
Zhasss: Considering what's been happening I don't blame you
Host Redara says:
::looks at the XO wondering what she is missing::
MO_Zell says:
::hands Zhass the Nirolon::
SO_Donovan says:
::targets the area on the planet and fires phasers::
Host CO_Bryant says:
Redara: Well hopefully what we are planning will help your planet and your people.
CNS_Sodak says:
::To self:: That Vulcan professor at the Academy always did say the first meld was always the hardest
XO_Senn says:
::looks pleadingly at Redara, so she will open up and talk to them about their talents::
Host EnsZhass says:
::looks at the pills:: MO : You sure? I mean.. I had been having them before the explosion...
MO_Zell says:
Zhass: Take two a day for two days. Within 6 hours o the other
CSO_McMer says:
SO: Keep a close eye on the tectonic activity, and the results of the salvo.  Also see if you can find a cause for the activity.
MO_Zell says:
Zhass: Well life isn't exactly easy on a starship
FCO_Teasley says:
Computer: Are there any Federation starships on sensors?
SO_Donovan says:
CSO: Yes sir
MO_Zell says:
Zhass: And stress is the only thing I can think of
Host EnsZhass says:
::shrugs:: MO : OK.. Thank you...
MO_Zell says:
Zhass: No signs of anything else
Host Redara says:
::looks from one to the other, not knowing what they want from her::  CO:  It appears we are fated to needing your help.  I just...  I do not know what you want, but I do know, you are not to hurt my people.  You are ones with many secrets.
Mensk says:
::looks back at the CO and XO::
Host EnsZhass says:
::gets up from the bio-bed and walks out of sickbay::
XO_Senn says:
Redara: We have no wish to harm you, rest assured of that.
MO_Zell says:
Zhass: If the headaches persist, talk to Parker
Host Redara says:
::nods::  XO:  I did not pick up any malicious intent from the younger one of you... the one who's mind I touched.  Why did you block me out?
Host CO_Bryant says:
Redara: I don't think that we are the only ones with secrets, and I can tell you this.  The secrets that I am keeping are not ones that can hurt you.... Unless I tell you about them.  What I am keeping from you I am doing for your own good.
XO_Senn says:
::decides to ask the Captain to allow her to visit Kiithra later::
SO_Donovan says:
::scans the planet for the phasers affects::
XO_Senn says:
Redara: I am not a telepath ::states simply:: I cannot talk with my mind... like you and A'Larra can do.
CNS_Sodak says:
::Leaves office::
Host Redara says:
CO:  You do not know me nor my people.  You are not in a position to know that as true.  As for secrets, I have answered your questions.  It is you that hides answers from me.
Host Redara says:
::looks at the XO::  Many are not telepaths, that is one of the talents.  But I can talk to you, if you would allow it.
XO_Senn says:
Redara: There are many differences between your people and ours... and we are trying to find out if we wouldn't be harming you at disclosing our secrets, as you call them.
Host CO_Bryant says:
Redara: I'm hiding nothing from you.  You still haven't told me just how we ended up here.
MO_Zell says:
::notices OPS::
Host CO_Bryant says:
XO: Nayla!
XO_Senn says:
::looks at Redara wonderingly... remembers that murmur in her head not long ago::
FCO_Teasley says:
CSO: Commander, I can't tell where we are
MO_Zell says:
OPS: Hello, Mr. Hewitt
CMO_Parker says:
CSO: Scans complete. The DNA from the blast matches a tech on board.
Host CO_Bryant says:
XO: that's enough... your skating around the edge.
Host Redara says:
CO:  As I told you before, I do not know that answer.  Only Kiithra does.  If it is that important, I can ask him.
Host CO_Bryant says:
Redara: I really wish that you would.
XO_Senn says:
::turns sharply at Bryant, looking at him questioningly... then nods:: CO: Aye, sir.
MO_Zell says:
OPS: Its Hewitt, right?
CSO_McMer says:
::Seeing everything well in hand, I head over to the empty OPS console, and tap out an interrogation of the 'comm badge' we had been communicating with:: FCO: Thanks for trying.
CSO_McMer says:
CMO: OK, check his background history and see if you can locate him.
Mensk says:
~~~~Redara: Why did he yell at her?~~~~
XO_Senn says:
::takes a couple of steps and wonders if Cody is realizing that the same way they keep secrets from them, they are keeping secrets from us::
Host Redara says:
::nods her head and concentrates, her hand resting lightly on her husbands furry body::  ~~~~Kiithra: Are you watching ancient one?~~~~
Host Redara says:
~~~~Mensk: I have no idea, unless there is something more here that we are not seeing.~~~~
Mensk says:
::is comforted by her touch::
Host Kiithra says:
@~~~Redara : I am, my child.. They do not seem hostile...~~~~
CMO_Parker says:
CSO: OK :: pushes a few buttons and gets an almost instantaneous response :: This crewman works in engineering, but he is in his quarters
CSO_McMer says:
CMO: Pass the information on to security, have them take him in for questioning.
Host Redara says:
~~~~Kiithra:  They ask questions for answers I do not know why they must have, but they want.  Can you answer them?  They want to know how they came to be here.  I do know it is not the same way as the others, but nothing more.~~~~
SO_Donovan says:
CSO: there is still tectonic activity on the planet, but the phasers did decrease the intensity some
FCO_Teasley says:
::starts scanning around the area to see if there's anything familiar::
CSO_McMer says:
SO: Can you isolate out a center, something or someplace which is causing this activity?
XO_Senn says:
::everything so silent...::
SO_Donovan says:
CSO: I'm scanning now sir
CMO_Parker says:
CSO: Aye sir
Host Kiithra says:
~~~Kiithra : Ask them if they will accept my invitation to come down.. The tremors have subsided much...~~~~
Host Redara says:
::nods::  CO:  would you accept Kiithra's invitation to visit with him?  He can answer what I can not.
CSO_McMer says:
FCO: As scanning assets come available, help the TO section keep an eye out on the immediate neighborhood.  We don't need any more surprises right now.
Host CO_Bryant says:
:::Looks at Redara for a second::::  Redara: Yes I will but will you give me a couple of seconds to talk to my first officer?
FCO_Teasley says:
CSO: Aye commander
OPS_Hewitt says:
::Tom is sleeping in sick bay::
XO_Senn says:
::and here it comes::
FCO_Teasley says:
::starts making a map on the nav. computer::
Host Redara says:
::takes her husband out of her pocket and unobtrusively places the small cute rodent upon her shoulder, within her hair::
Host CO_Bryant says:
:::looks at Nayla and motions towards the door::::
Host Redara says:
::nods at the CO::
Host CO_Bryant says:
::::Heads out the door on to the bridge::::
Mensk says:
::sits on her shoulder, playing with her hair::
XO_Senn says:
::follows the Captain::
Host CO_Bryant says:
XO: You like them don't you?
CNS_Sodak says:
::enters TL::
CSO_McMer says:
All: Captain on the bridge.
Host CO_Bryant says:
ALL: As you were!
XO_Senn says:
CO: It's not a matter of liking them, although I do. It's a matter of... are we going to do all we can to save their civilization or not?
Host Redara says:
Mensk:  Have you learned anything more then I have?
MO_Zell says:
::walks over to Hewitt::
CSO_McMer says:
CO: Sir, the third phaser pattern has been fired and we're analyzing the results.
FCO_Teasley says:
::sits back down::
MO_Zell says:
Self: Lets see what we can do here...
Host CO_Bryant says:
XO: Given the chance and the ability to do it without violating the prime directive more than I already have, yes.
Mensk says:
Redara: Not really.....their laws must restrict them to telling us much.
MO_Zell says:
::grabs a hypospray::
Host CO_Bryant says:
CSO: Very Well Mr. MacMer.
CMO_Parker says:
Computer: Please tell this to the Tactical Officer as soon as he is ready. The CSO and I have done some scans and a certain tech in his quarters needs to be questioned.
MO_Zell says:
::sticks it to Hewitt's neck::
XO_Senn says:
CO: I have come to the conclusion we have grounds already, sir... there's one little thing we have to dig into before we can say so without doubt. May I tell you?
MO_Zell says:
::hits the button::
Host Redara says:
Mensk:  Which leads me to the question of why.  What is so important that they would rather let us perish, as did the first group, then help us?
CMO_Parker says:
:: pushes the button for the turbo lift and steps in :: TL: Medical Bay
Mensk says:
Redara: I do not know........
FCO_Teasley says:
::records some planet the 3rd area::
MO_Zell says:
::notices that OPS is not waking up::
Host Redara says:
::looks around the room curiously::
Mensk says:
Redara: It must be a law punishable by death or something.
MO_Zell says:
Self: Man. I can't believe I passed Starfleet medical and cant wake up a sleeping guy
Host CO_Bryant says:
XO: that's why I asked you out here Nayla, you usually don't strike me as the emotional type but you were flirting with the Prime Directive really hard there.
Host Redara says:
Mensk:  Hmmm... that would be rather drastic, but how does that effect us?  I do not like this my husband.
XO_Senn says:
CO: We didn't have the time to talk, and I regret that, sir.
OPS_Hewitt says:
::still sleeping very soundly::
CMO_Parker says:
:: steps out of turbo lift :: MO: Is something wrong? you don't look sick ::grabs tricorder and scans ::
CNS_Sodak says:
::Exits TL and arrives on bridge::
Mensk says:
Redara: Nor I, but our choices are limited.
MO_Zell says:
self: #)(&$
Host CO_Bryant says:
XO: I know, but we still have to play by the rules Commander, no matter if we like it or not.
Host Redara says:
::nods, turning to the window and absentmindedly running a finger along it, leaving a permanent etching::
CMO_Parker says:
MO: No, you aren't sick. You can return to duty now...
Mensk says:
::watches her::
MO_Zell says:
::sits back down::
XO_Senn says:
CO: After the old man in the planet let me find out that he brought us here, sir? Technology or not... that is FTL travel. On them, or others... I am trying to play by the rules. I am trying to allow them to acknowledge that they fit well within the PD. But if you wish for me to stay aside in this case, I will.
MO_Zell says:
CMO: hello sir
CSO_McMer says:
::Reply to the interrogation comes in, it turns out it was a comm badge from the Skitanna, an Excelsior class ship....::
Host Redara says:
::a lovely haunting landscape slowly becomes part of the window::
MO_Zell says:
CMO: No, not sick.
SO_Donovan says:
CSO: the tectonic activity is normal planetary activity it's not isolated to one specific thing. The ship just doesn't have the power to subdue the activity completely
CSO_McMer says:
::Running a record search on the Skitanna::
Mensk says:
::looks out the window:: Redara: It is beautiful isn't it?
CMO_Parker says:
MO: Well then what?
MO_Zell says:
CMO: Just kinda wondering why this guy isn't waking up.
MO_Zell says:
CMO: I tried Vitalax, Tri-Vitalax...
XO_Senn says:
CO: I apologize for my reckless ways. I thought, and still think, I was headed the right track. But you are right as well... I was being reckless. ::although I just repeated what you just had said, in other words::
CSO_McMer says:
SO: OK, keep working on what we can to do stabilize things.  See if there are any hints in any terraforming handbooks....
MO_Zell says:
CMO: I tried yelling in his face
Host CO_Bryant says:
XO: I am going to go down there and see what I can find out about these people, I want you to try to find out whatever you can with the ships sensors, and see if you can figure out where we are and how to get back home.  Under no circumstances are you or anyone else to beam down to the planet, and if they attempt to take anyone else you are to break orbit and set course for home.
CMO_Parker says:
MO: What? :: walks over to biobed and reads the screen :: He isn't asleep.
Host CO_Bryant says:
Break orbit and set course for home.
FCO_Teasley says:
CO: Captain, I've been able to make up a map of this area but still nothing yet as on where we are.
SO_Donovan says:
CSO: yes sir
Host Redara says:
Mensk:  Yes, it is... and with such an eternal backdrop... I have never been so close to the stars... kind of makes you wish...  ::lightly shrugs her shoulders::
MO_Zell says:
CMO: Then my tricorder must be broken
MO_Zell says:
::scans OPS::
MO_Zell says:
Self: What the...?
Host Kiithra says:
~~~~Redara : Well?~~~~
CSO_McMer says:
CO: I have identified the ship which had contacted them before.....
Mensk says:
::nearly falls off::
Host CO_Bryant says:
CSO: what ship was it?
MO_Zell says:
CMO: All previous reading said he was asleep
XO_Senn says:
CO: One of the rules is that no ship will leave her crew behind, sir. If you leave me in command, you know I cannot just leave anyone behind.
MO_Zell says:
CMO: here, check the log
CNS_Sodak says:
::Looks at computer monitor::
XO_Senn says:
CO: That is, if you still want to play by the rules.
Host Redara says:
~~~~Kiithra:  I do not know ancient one... I am not so sure about this captain of theirs.... not sure at all.  He is talking now to the one you brought.  There is something not right there.~~~~
CMO_Parker says:
MO: No, he is awake. Let's have some fun. I learnt this in school. How to get people to wake up. Replicate some shaving cream... :: grins ::
Host CO_Bryant says:
XO: I give you very few direct Orders Nayla...... This IS one of them, am I understood?
Host Redara says:
::puts her hand up::  ~~~~Mensk:  are you all right?~~~~
MO_Zell says:
CMO: then why isn't he moving?
CSO_McMer says:
CO: It was the Skitanna, an Excelsior class.  Their AT was on a destroyed planet and then somehow transported, yet on the same planet lush and green.
CSO_McMer says:
CO: The report is fragmentary.
CNS_Sodak says:
::leaves bridge::
Mensk says:
~~~~Redara: Yes dear, just didn't expect the shrug~~~~
Host CO_Bryant says:
CSO: keep digging Jason, see if you can find out what happened, it might be the key to getting us home.
XO_Senn says:
::coldly:: CO: I understand. My objection will be noted in my log.
Host Redara says:
::lightly chuckles::  Mensk: sorry about that
Host CO_Bryant says:
:::looks back at the XO:::
CSO_McMer says:
CO: Aye, sir.
Mensk says:
::giggles::
Host CO_Bryant says:
XO: Very well Nayla....:::looks like he's about to say something else::::
Host CO_Bryant says:
XO: you have the bridge......
CSO_McMer says:
::Attempting additional cross referencing to the Skitanna's AT's report, and any similar instances.::
Host Redara says:
Mensk:  think they will be much longer?  I don't know about you, but I am rather thirsty.
XO_Senn says:
::averts her eyes to the viewscreen:: CO: Aye, sir.
FCO_Teasley says:
::records a few star systems::
Mensk says:
Redara: I hope not too long....
Host CO_Bryant says:
:::Turns to go into the RR and then stops and turns back around and goes over to his chair reaches down into a compartment and comes back out with a type one phaser and conceals it in his uniform before striding through the door of his RR:::
MO_Zell says:
::sits down::
Host Redara says:
::turns toward the opening door, wondering where the other one is::
Host CO_Bryant says:
Redara: I'm ready whenever you are.
XO_Senn says:
::shakes her head... he's taking a weapon...::
Host Redara says:
CO:  What about the other one?
CNS_Sodak says:
::Enters Sickbay::
MO_Zell says:
CNS: Hello sir
CMO_Parker says:
CNS: Hello Sodak, welcome back
Host CO_Bryant says:
Redara: the other one will be staying on the ship, one of us has to stay and command.
XO_Senn says:
::moves to the center of the bridge:: CSO: I'd appreciate a full report on what you have found since I've been playing tennis ball between the planet and the ship, Commander....
CSO_McMer says:
XO: I didn't get a chance to add, that we've found some DNA traces at the explosion sites, and security are going to detain the individual for questioning.
Host Redara says:
::nods unhappily::  ~~~~Kiithra:  Ancient one, the captain is ready to come, but he wants to come alone.~~~~
Host CO_Bryant says:
Redara: and I have to ask you to refrain from transporting any of my crew without asking me first please.
CNS_Sodak says:
CMO/MO: Hello...I need some information
FCO_Teasley says:
XO: Commander, I've made a map of this area but still no clue as to where we are
Host Kiithra says:
@~~~Redara : Fine.. Get ready..~~~~
Host Redara says:
CO:  That is not one of my talents... that is one of my brothers special talents.  One of the few higher ones at his command.
MO_Zell says:
CNS: What information?
CSO_McMer says:
XO: Aye ma'm.  We've also taken DNA traces of your visitor and logged them into the data base.
XO_Senn says:
FCO: Please continue trying, Lt. We need to find out our location... somehow.
Host Redara says:
CO:  Kiithra is ready for you.
CSO_McMer says:
XO: We have investigated the signal from the planet, interrogated it and determined it is from the Skitanna, and Excelsior class ship.
Host Kiithra says:
@::waves his hands around::
Host CO_Bryant says:
Redara: then by all means! ::: smiles::::
XO_Senn says:
::nods at MacMer:: CSO: I didn't have a chance to ask you if you could determine the source of the tectonic activity on the planet.
SO_Donovan says:
CSO: could we use a modified torpedo to detonate on a delay? That would get deeper into the planet's crust. We would also have to recalibrate the charge.
Host Redara says:
::steps over to the captain cautiously::
CSO_McMer says:
XO: We've pulled up an AT team report from that ship, dated about 2 months ago concerning this planet.
Host Redara says:
~~~~Kiithra:  We are ready~~~~
Host Kiithra says:
ACTION ; the CO and Redara are "transported" down to the planet
CNS_Sodak says:
MO: I'm wondering if any of the medical staff knows of any unusual side effects to mind melds
XO_Senn says:
::turns to ask Hewitt to find everything about the Skitanna... but he's not there::
CSO_McMer says:
XO: The report is fragmentary.  I am passing it to your station now.
Host CO_Bryant says:
@::::Looks around:::::
Host Redara says:
@~~~~XO:  You can hear if you wish.  Only open your mind.~~~~
CSO_McMer says:
XO: The SO has checked but not found the cause of the tectonic activity.
XO_Senn says:
::nods:: CSO: You're a jewel.... ::goes to her seat and activates her console::
MO_Zell says:
CNS: Well, there are added mental problems in the short term in certain telepathic species
XO_Senn says:
CSO: Just so we're clear on this... I don't want you to find the source just to keep you and your department busy on a wild goose chase ::as scrolling the reports by::
Host Redara says:
::steps away from the captain::  CO:  Captain, this Is Kiithra.
MO_Zell says:
CNS: And it can raise the blood pressure of the meld for several weeks afterward
CSO_McMer says:
::Jewel? What brought that on??  Oh, well::  XO: We were not able to find out how they transported you down, could their 'powers' whatever they are be causing the tectonic activity?
Host Redara says:
@Kiithra:  This is the captain ~~~~Who is most unhappy about things~~~~
MO_Zell says:
CNS: Also strange dreams have been reported
Host Kiithra says:
@::looks at the small man:: CO : You are their leader, yes? Yes.. You are.. ::smiles::
XO_Senn says:
CSO: If the tectonic activity had been caused for an occurrence that could be considered "abnormal" the PD would allow us to aid the planet even if we never get proof that they have the means for FTL travel.
MO_Zell says:
CNS: But that's all I know
Host CO_Bryant says:
@:::Looks at the Old one::: Kiithra: Hello, my name is Cody, and yes I am :::smiles back::::
CNS_Sodak says:
MO: That would explain my recent.........disorientation
MO_Zell says:
CNS: Pardon?
XO_Senn says:
::just usual reports... the only abnormal thing being how they appeared on the planet, but that's it::
CSO_McMer says:
XO: Aye ma'm.
Host Kiithra says:
@CO : I have to thank you.. Our home seems to be faring much better..
Host Kiithra says:
@::gets up from his chair with an agility that surprises Redara::
CSO_McMer says:
::Turing to the so::  SO: I'm sorry, you caught me while I was briefing the XO, what was that suggestion?
FCO_Teasley says:
::continues scanning::
XO_Senn says:
CSO: I think their... talents, as they like to call them, could very well cause the activity, but... ::wonders::
MO_Zell says:
CNS: Disorientation?
Host Redara says:
::watches as things proceed::
Mensk says:
@::stays on her shoulder::
CNS_Sodak says:
MO: I performed a meld recently and have felt oddly ever since
Host CO_Bryant says:
@Kiithra: Hopefully the things that we have done will help to stabilize your planet, there may still be a little more to do but I can see that we have already had a positive impact.
MO_Zell says:
CNS: Hmm, what was the species melded with?
Host CO_Bryant says:
@Kiithra: could you please tell me more about how you brought us here?
Host Kiithra says:
@CO : I knew you would help... ::looks at the CO:: Forgive our earlier intrusion.. We were not certain of your intents..
FCO_Teasley says:
::scans for any weapon signatures besides the occasional phaser fire from the Artemis::
CNS_Sodak says:
MO: Well, it was Mister Hewitt I melded with
CMO_Parker says:
:: accessing logs on Vulcans ::
MO_Zell says:
CNS: Betazoid...and this was in response to what?
Host CO_Bryant says:
@Kiithra: I have to admit that it was most.... unsettling.
Host Kiithra says:
@CO : That is not easy to explain... I....
Host Kiithra says:
@CO : I made it happen... You were not a specific target..
MO_Zell says:
CMO: Could this have anything to do with this sleep that Hewitt is in?
Host Redara says:
@::unobtrusively brings her talents to bare, quietly prepared for anything... well as much as she could be::
Host CO_Bryant says:
@Kiithra: but you do have the power to send us back?
SO_Donovan says:
CSO: Can we use a modified torpedo to detonate on delay to get deeper into the planet's crust? We would also have to recalibrate the charge.
CSO_McMer says:
XO: Were you able to get some idea what their 'talents' consist of?
Host Kiithra says:
@::nods:: I am not as strong as to keep you here if you do not wish to stay
XO_Senn says:
@::finishes the other ship's crew report and shakes her head... nothing they can use here::
Host CO_Bryant says:
@Kiithra: and just where exactly is "here"?
CSO_McMer says:
SO: You tell me, check the Tech Orders on the torps and see if they've ever done this during terraforming procedures.
XO_Senn says:
CSO: If you promise not to lock me up... ::smiles tiredly:: I don't know how to call it... but the only word I can think of is magic ::shakes her head:: I've seen no technology to account for those talents.
Mensk says:
@::moves to the end of her shoulder, then transforms into a hawk::
Host Kiithra says:
@CO : We call our home Enkiria
CMO_Parker says:
MO: Tom just had an episode of Betazoid Stress Syndrome. I don't think that the meld had much effect on him.. But it is a possibility.
SO_Donovan says:
CSO: yes sir
Host CO_Bryant says:
@Kiithra: Could you tell me just where that is?
Host Kiithra says:
@::shrugs:: It is here.. What do you mean where it is?
CMO_Parker says:
CNS: What did you need?
Host Redara says:
@::smiles at her husband, wondering what he is up to in that form::
CNS_Sodak says:
CMO: I have felt like I'm here, but not here since the meld.....
CSO_McMer says:
XO: Magic?  I have heard stories of things, but on New Texas its spiritual things or slight of hand, not transporting people.
FCO_Teasley says:
::hopes the ship's not in the Delta quadrant::
XO_Senn says:
CSO: I guess we don't know it all, Commander. And if we don't do something, we might never have the chance to learn.
Host CO_Bryant says:
@Kiithra: a lot of my job is exploration, but even though we have been a lot of places, we cannot figure out exactly where we are.... well that's kind of an understatement, we don't even have a CLUE.
Mensk says:
@::looks back at her::
CMO_Parker says:
CNS: Explain. I don't understand.
Host Redara says:
@::tries communicating with the XO again, liking a small challenge::  ~~~~XO:  open your mind, and you can hear, all that is here and all that is within...~~~~  ::remembering the chant she had learned as a child::
XO_Senn says:
::raises her head...::
Host Kiithra says:
@::frowns: I cannot help you there.. I have seen things out there.. But have never really know how far they where..
XO_Senn says:
*CNS* Counselor, come to the bridge, please.
CNS_Sodak says:
Well, Like part of me is here, but part of me is detached....
Host Redara says:
@~~~~Mensk:  What are you up to my husband?~~~~
CSO_McMer says:
XO: Something else odd to me here, is that there are 500 hundred of them.  Planetary populations are normally more than that unless they're new colonies....
CNS_Sodak says:
::sighs:: *XO*: I'm on my way
CSO_McMer says:
XO: And if this tectonic activity had been going on for some time, then there shouldn't be even 500 left....
CMO_Parker says:
CNS: maybe you just need some meditation.
Mensk says:
@~~~~Redara: Oh nothing....just like this form~~~~
Host Redara says:
@::repeats the chant while listening to the two men::
Host CO_Bryant says:
@Kiithra: Do you know how you happened to come to be here on this planet?  Are your people from here originally?
Host Redara says:
::sighs:: ~~~~Mensk:  I would that I could join you~~~~
XO_Senn says:
CSO: The figures have troubled me as well, but I cannot find answers... they hold them all. ::staring at the viewscreen::
CNS_Sodak says:
CMO: perhaps....Now if you'll excuse me...
FCO_Teasley says:
XO: Commander, I recommend launching a probe
Host Kiithra says:
@CO : We are..
XO_Senn says:
::tries to open her mind:: ~~~~~Redara?~~~~
CNS_Sodak says:
::Leaves sickbay::
Host Kiithra says:
@CO : Though I have heard stories of our countrymen going to these far places and returning..
XO_Senn says:
FCO: What kind of probe, Lt?
Host Redara says:
@:: a smile crosses her face::  ~~~~XO:  See... you can do it... all you need to do is open your mind~~~~
CNS_Sodak says:
::Enters TL::
CSO_McMer says:
::Pulling up further data from the Skitanna's mission, I pass a set of coordinates to the FCO:: FCO: See if these coordinates help the astrogator to lock in our position.
SO_Donovan says:
CSO: No procedure is in the database like that, but my simulation confirms that it could work.
CMO_Parker says:
CNS: Ok. :: sits in chair and tries to find info on mind melding with Betazoids ::
FCO_Teasley says:
XO: A long range probe, if I'm going to point us in the right direction, I'll need a accurate picture
XO_Senn says:
::wishes to ask Redara, but cannot... she gave her word she'd stay aside... wishes she had not too strongly::
Host CO_Bryant says:
@Kiithra: were these people "talented" like you?
CSO_McMer says:
SO: Let's try a different tactic.  Check the planet for temporal disturbances.
XO_Senn says:
FCO: You have my authorization. Maybe this way we'll have better luck.
Host Kiithra says:
@::nods:: CO : Very much so.. They are all gone, now, unfortunately.. Our planet took their lives..
CNS_Sodak says:
::Exits TL and arrives on bridge::
Host Redara says:
@::sees Senn's unhappiness::  ~~~~XO:  It is alright... honest.  Things will work out~~~~
FCO_Teasley says:
::looks at the coordinates:: CSO: I give it a try
XO_Senn says:
::grabs the armrests of her seat and digs her fingers in forcefully... thinking::
SO_Donovan says:
CSO: yes sir
Host CO_Bryant says:
@Kiithra: The planet took them?
XO_Senn says:
~~~~Redara: Hopefully. I won't talk anymore... it's too much for me this way~~~~
Host Kiithra says:
@::nods:: They are no more.. ::looks down, in respect::
XO_Senn says:
::stands::
FCO_Teasley says:
XO: Permission to leave the bridge
OPS_Hewitt says:
::Tom ....still sleeping...almost can pick up strange voices in his head...he wonders if he's consciously hearing them or not::
CNS_Sodak says:
XO: You sent for me?
Host Redara says:
@~~~~XO:  Then let go... this is my talent, not yours.  Do not try to force it.~~~~
XO_Senn says:
FCO: Not granted. Please have somebody of your staff take care of it...
FCO_Teasley says:
XO: Yes ma' am
SO_Donovan says:
::scans the planet for any disturbances while looking over his simulation of his idea::
XO_Senn says:
CNS: I did. I'd like you to try to use your mental abilities to make sure everything's fine with the Captain ::cannot ask him to communicate with Redara now that she has::
Host CO_Bryant says:
@Kiithra:  Was your planet always this unstable?
FCO_Teasley says:
::plugs in the coordinates::
Host Kiithra says:
@CO : No.. We have no idea what caused this change... But enough of your questions: I have some for you as well... Will you heal our planet? Can you do it?
FCO_Teasley says:
::contacts the Beta FCO to prepare the probe::
Host Redara says:
@::opens her eyes and ears to the councilor so that she might know what is going on::
CNS_Sodak says:
XO: I'll do what I can
XO_Senn says:
CSO: Number 2... Lt Teasley will launch a probe to help him establish our location. In the meantime, I'll be in sickbay... If anything that you deem requires my attention happens, I need to be informed immediately. I know you'll be wise ::looks at him meaningfully::
XO_Senn says:
CNS: Please report everything to Commander MacMer.
OPS_Hewitt says:
~~~~Who is this... I don't like being invade like this~~~~
Host CO_Bryant says:
@Kiithra: Yes I think that we can... we have already started and we are going to try to finish the job.
CNS_Sodak says:
XO: Yes, sir
XO_Senn says:
CSO: And something else... by anything, I also mean if you find something that could help us... or them ::points at the viewscreen::
FCO_Teasley says:
CSO: Sir, I've found our location
Host Kiithra says:
@::nods, pleased with himself:: Then you must come with us.. And celebrate.. ::smiles, and leads the Captain outside the tent::
CSO_McMer says:
XO: Aye ma'm.
XO_Senn says:
::turns at Teasley from the turbolift's doors::
Host CO_Bryant says:
@:::follows:::
CMO_Parker says:
:: looks over at Tom, but notices something wrong ::
CSO_McMer says:
::Looks expectantly to FCO::
CNS_Sodak says:
::finds XO's request a bit odd, but doesn't question it::
XO_Senn says:
::stands inside the lift, holding the door... waiting for Teasley to speak::
FCO_Teasley says:
XO, CSO: We're along the Fed/Romulan border, no nav. beacons were working, that's why we couldn't pinpoint our location
OPS_Hewitt says:
::feels like many voices are entering his mind...and.....::
Host Redara says:
@:;watches the two men go, wondering if she should follow::
