Avalon Station  10401.04  "Look who’s coming to dinner - Chapter 4"

Host Jules says:
WHen last we left, the crew had discovered what was left of a body and there are 2 crewmen missing.

Host Jules says:
The Sector Commander is still onboard and there is still the question of what happened to his shuttle.

Host Jules says:
Will the crew find out what is going on in time?  Lets find out.

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
Dr Grey: Any clues?

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
::takes out the padd from her pocket and approaches the ACO::

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
<Dr. Grey> CTO: Not at the moment, we have tests to run, and I'll keep your department informed.

::sees the CMO coming towards her.::

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
::nods and leaves::

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
ACO: This is the medical report on the Admiral, nothing out of the ordinary, but I wish we had a full time Counselor onboard to eval him.

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:

Host ACO_Cmdr_Rushing says:
CMO:  I hope Starfleet can assign a counselor soon.  I suspect that the crew would greatly benefit from one.

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
*ACO* I'd like to place a curfew on the station for non essential people including civilians for 6pm until we locate this murderer

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
ACO: I couldn't agree more.

Host ACO_Cmdr_Rushing says:
*CTO*:  That would be a prudent move.  Make the ship-wide call at your discretion.

Host VAdm_Sellig_Eiluj says:
:: prowling around in the jeffries tubes :: Out loud:  I know you're in here.  Come on out.  You aren't supposed to be here.

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
*CTO* do you still have security shadowing the Admiral?

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
::issues curfew and orders Security to post signs around the Promenade::

Host ACO_Cmdr_Rushing says:
CMO:  Anyone out without proper authorization just might be up to something.

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
*CMO* I haven't been given instructions to shadow the Admiral, what cause to I have to shadow a flag officer?

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
ACO: Aye

EO_Lt_Alexander says:
::walks up to one of the runabout and kneeling, begins to work::

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
*CTO* it was decided that the Admiral was acting in an odd manner and the XO at the time ordered him to be followed/escorted? ::looks at the ACO::

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
*ACO* I will need written authorization and cause

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
ACO: are we to check each person for their identification or just random search?

Host ACO_Cmdr_Rushing says:
*CTO*:  I will send along my authorization and cause momentarily.

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
::waits::

EO_Lt_Alexander says:

Host ACO_Cmdr_Rushing says:
::picks up a nearby unused padd and enters her reasoning as to why the Admiral should be shadowed while aboard the station.  Adds her authorization and sends it to the CTO.::

::leans back in his chair and taps fingers on the console::

EO_Lt_Alexander says:
::listens to the flight personnel complain about the runabout's poor handling:: Flight: Okay, okay!  I'll get it back in spec!

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
*ACO* When the Admiral orders me to go away am I to arrest him?

Host ACO_Cmdr_Rushing says:
CMO:  I think to be fair that we should just go ahead and check anyone who is out past curfew.

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
ACO: Aye, we'll need security on overtime then ::smiles::

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
*Security* Locate the Admiral

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
*CSO* Please scan for the Admiral

Host ACO_Cmdr_Rushing says:
*CTO*:  Please inform the Admiral that it is for his safety that he has some companionship while the "murderer" hasn't been caught yet.

*CTO*:  Lost him, sir?

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
*ACO* Acknowledged

CSO_Ens_Hawkes says:
::tasks internal sensors::

Host ACO_Cmdr_Rushing says:
CMO:  We'll post security to patrol each deck.

EO_Lt_Alexander says:
::finishes his work on the shuttle, and turns to the flight officer:: Flight: There you go, okay? I'll test drive it and we'll be done!

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
ACO: Aye, I'll see to it.

EO_Lt_Alexander says:
::mutters obscenities under his breath, then turns away from the other officers, and hits his commbadge:: *ACO*: Sir, request permission to take a runabout out around the station for a test drive. I fixed the impulse engines, but the guys over in flight don't seem to trust me.

Host ACO_Cmdr_Rushing says:
CMO:  Thank you for your help.  Being new to this position will take some getting used to.

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
::looking for the Admiral::

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
ACO: No problem, Commander.  Glad to help.

CSO_Ens_Hawkes says:
*CTO*:  I have the Admiral's com badge in jefferies tube B4-66, Level 12, sir.

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
::walks over to the CTO's station and comm's Paladine::

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
*CSO* Is the Admiral connected to the Comm badge?

Host VAdm_Sellig_Eiluj says:
ACTION:  The CSO finds the Admirals com signal in a jeffries tube on level 12

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
::heads to Level 12::

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
::opens Comm with Victoria::

Host ACO_Cmdr_Rushing says:
*EO*:  I am sorry Lt. but all excursions off this station have been halted due to an explosion of a shuttle.  Use whatever sensors you can to survey the surrounding areas outside the station.

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
*CTO*: on the orders of the ACO, I'm ordering your security teams to man each deck until the further notice.

Host VAdm_Sellig_Eiluj says:
:: still in the jeffries tube ::  Out loud:  Come on, I'll let you go if you come clean now.  If I have to catch you, you know what the penalty is.

CSO_Ens_Hawkes says:
*CTO*:  Sensors are picking up a life sign there sir, it is Andorian

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
*CMO* We will establish checkpoints, please inform the ACO that such a task will reduce our ability to patrol

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
::ears perk up at the mention of the Andorian life sign::

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
::on his way to Level 12::

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
*CTO* Aye, will do Commander

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
::relays the message from the CTO to the ACO::

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
::issues checkpoint orders::

EO_Lt_Alexander says:
*ACO*: Why do I need to use sensors to survey around the station Sir? All I want to do is test drive a runabout.

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
::arrives at Level 12 and looks around::

EO_Lt_Alexander says:
::turns and walks to a panel, and looks on internal station sensors for the Admiral::

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
::steps over to the CSO:: CSO: the Admiral?

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
::walking at Level 12 looking for the comm badge::

Host ACO_Cmdr_Rushing says:
*EO*:  I'm sorry, I misunderstood your request.  All ships are locked down until further notice.

EO_Lt_Alexander says:
*ACO*: Aye sir. I'll let the boys in Flight know. They're not gonna be too happy over this.

CSO_Ens_Hawkes says:
::wipes a smudge off the console:: CMO:  It’s a good bet, Ma'am

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
::looking for the Admiral::

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
Admiral: Greetings, how about coming out of the JT?

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
::nods and walks over to a empty console and does a quick check on how many Adorians are onboard Avalon.........but stops and thinks that the commbadge is that of the Admirals::

EO_Lt_Alexander says:
::lets the Flight boys know that they're grounded, and takes off towards the turbolifts::

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
::shines flashlight on Admiral::

Host VAdm_Sellig_Eiluj says:
:: looks up at the CTO ::  CTO:  Oh, I was....just inspecting down here.  :: smiles ::

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
Admiral: I see, how about coming out of the tube

EO_Lt_Alexander says:
::reaches the turbolift:: Computer: Take me to Operations.

Host VAdm_Sellig_Eiluj says:
CTO:  Certainly Commander.

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
*ACO* The Admiral is in a JT and says he was "inspecting it"

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
::waits on deck for Admiral to climb out, shining his flash light down the tube::

EO_Lt_Alexander says:
::arrives and heads over to the Engineering terminal, bringing up the status of the diagnostics::

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
::hears her commbadge beep and automatically swats at it::

Host VAdm_Sellig_Eiluj says:
:: gets out of the jefferies tube ::

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
Admiral: Perhaps you would join me for dinner on the Promenade?

Host ACO_Cmdr_Rushing says:
*CTO*:  Please escort the Admiral to operations,  His presence is requested.

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
<Dr. Grey> *CMO* We've i.d.’d the body, but not the cause of death.  There is a residue on the body parts that we can't identify.

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
Adm: Err, after visiting with the ACO

EO_Lt_Alexander says:
::hears the comm, and closes out his terminal, hops in the TL, and mutters:: Computer: Deck 10 please.

Host VAdm_Sellig_Eiluj says:
CTO:  Why, I'd love to Commander.  Thank you.

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
*Dr. Grey*: Very well Alex, get what you can from the tests and send me a report as soon as possible.

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
*ACO* We are heading your way

EO_Lt_Alexander says:
::waits nervously as the TL takes him to his destination::

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
::hears the CTO and groans at the thought of seeing the Admiral smile once more::

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
::leads Adm to C and C::

Host ACO_Cmdr_Rushing says:
*CTO*:  Understood.

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
ACO: Dr. Grey has a prelim report.  We've i.d.’d the body, but the cause of death hasn't been determined.  They found a residue on the body parts that they can't identify.

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
::heading to C and C::

EO_Lt_Alexander says:
::hops out of the TL, and walks down the corridor towards the science labs::

CSO_Ens_Hawkes says:
@<Seamus_MacLeod> COMM:  Avalon:  Avalon approach, this is the Roxanne, approaching the outer marker, request vector for approach

Host ACO_Cmdr_Rushing says:
CMO:  Keep Dr. Grey running any possible test on that residue.  Even the completely unthinkable test on it.  Anything could be discovered about it.

CSO_Ens_Hawkes says:
COMM: Seamus:  Roxanne, this is Avalon, hold at outer marker until further notice

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
ACO: Aye

CSO_Ens_Hawkes says:
@<Seamus_MacLeod> COMM: Avalon:  Acknowledged Avalon...  Problem?

EO_Lt_Alexander says:
::stops at a panel in the corridor and checks on the location of the Admiral::

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
::notifies the good Doctor Grey of the ACO's orders::

CSO_Ens_Hawkes says:
COMM: Seamus:  I have no other information at this time Roxanne, please hold at the outer marker until further notice.

EO_Lt_Alexander says:
::walks into the science labs, seeing only a few personnel:: Self: This just might work.

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
::arrives at C and C::

CSO_Ens_Hawkes says:
@<Seamus_MacLeod> COMM: Avalon:  All-right then...  Holding at outer marker.

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
::turns and looks at Paladine::

Host ACO_Cmdr_Rushing says:
::sees the CTO and Admiral enter operations.::

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
ACO: May I present the Adm

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
::smiles at CMO::

CSO_Ens_Hawkes says:
@<Seamus_MacLeod> ::locks the Roxie into orbital holding pattern:::

Host VAdm_Sellig_Eiluj says:
ACO:  Captain, may I offer my congratulations.  :: smiles ::

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
::focuses on Paladine and smiles, then looks at the Admiral::

EO_Lt_Alexander says:
::walks up to the duty Science Officer who was on shift just before the CSO:: SO_Kelly: Excuse me, Lieutenant, but do you have time to look at the hardware for this sensor array with me? It's been giving me problems and I thought you might be able to shed some light on the issue.

Host VAdm_Sellig_Eiluj says:
<SO_Kelly>  EO:  Oh, Lt, certainly.  :: smiles ::

Host ACO_Cmdr_Rushing says:
Admiral:  Good to have you on the station.  I am sorry about your shuttle.  We hope to have all this resolved soon.  Please keep in mind that we wish to keep you safe and that is why we have a security officer accompanying you for now.

EO_Lt_Alexander says:
SO_Kelly: Right this way ma'am. ::leads her to a Jefferies tube entrance:: SO_Kelly: It's just through here and up one deck. I figured this would be the easiest way.

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
::reaches into her pocket for her medical tricorder and sets it to Andorian::

EO_Lt_Alexander says:
::Waits for her to crawl in, then follows, and seals the tube behind them::

Host ACO_Cmdr_Rushing says:
<Admiral>

Host VAdm_Sellig_Eiluj says:
<SO_Kelly>  EO:  Ok.  :: grabs her tricorder ::

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
::stands at the TL looking around, rifle in hand::

Host VAdm_Sellig_Eiluj says:
ACO:  Oh, I certainly understand that.

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
::steps around the Admiral and the CTO and scans the Admiral from behind::

Host ACO_Cmdr_Rushing says:
Admiral:  Please enjoy yourself as best you can but keep in mind that there is a 1800 curfew.

CSO_Ens_Hawkes says:
::notices the CTO, armed to the teeth, again.  Shrugs it off::

EO_Lt_Alexander says:
::arrives at the sensor array controls and points to a panel to distract her attention:: SO_Kelly: There's the problem.

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
::frowns at the CSO, scowling::

Host VAdm_Sellig_Eiluj says:
ACO:  Oh, that will be no problem. I don't like to stay up late anyway.

EO_Lt_Alexander says:
::steps up behind her slowly::

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
::taps her tricorder for the results::

Host VAdm_Sellig_Eiluj says:
<SO_Kelly>  :: begins to scan :: EO:  I don't see the problem Lt.

Host ACO_Cmdr_Rushing says:
Admiral:  Please got about your business.  I apologize for interrupting you by calling you to operations.

CSO_Ens_Hawkes says:
::shakes head and goes back to work, not wishing to taunt a Vulcan with a phaser rifle:::

EO_Lt_Alexander says:
::with a swift motion, slams her head into a bulkhead::

Host VAdm_Sellig_Eiluj says:
ACO:  Oh not a problem at all Captain.

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
::finishes circling the Admiral and looks at the tricorder screen::

CSO_Ens_Hawkes says:
::calls up data on the Roxanne, looks over her flight plan, cargo and crew manifest::

Host VAdm_Sellig_Eiluj says:
<SO_Kelly> EO:  Are you su.........:: drops to the deck ::

EO_Lt_Alexander says:
::slams her head into the deck grating to ensure she's dead, then begins to devour his prey::
CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
::finds the results are not that different from her medical report on the Admiral::

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
::blinks::

EO_Lt_Alexander says:
::continues to eat quickly, never knowing when someone will decide to use these lifts::

Host ACO_Cmdr_Rushing says:
Admiral:  Please contact me if you have any problems.

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
CMO: The Admiral appears to need medical attention

Host VAdm_Sellig_Eiluj says:
ACO:  Oh, to be certain I will.  Actually, I am having diner tonight with the CTO, would you care to join us?

SO_Lt_Kelly says:
::finishes eating, and picking up her tricorder, makes her way back out of the Jefferies tube::

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
::looks at Paladine::

Host ACO_Cmdr_Rushing says:
Admiral:  I would be delighted to.

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
CMO: Would you like to join us?

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
CTO: I'd be happy to.

Host VAdm_Sellig_Eiluj says:
ACO:  Wonderful!  CTO:  WHat time are we having dinner?

SO_Lt_Kelly says:
::exits the Jefferies tube back in the Science lab::

Host ACO_Cmdr_Rushing thinks:
::good chance to eye the Admiral's behavior for myself.::

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
::cringes inside::

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
CSO: Please check the lifesigns on the station to see if no one else is dead

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
Admiral: Why how about now?

CSO_Ens_Hawkes says:
CTO:  Aye sir.  ::tasks sensors::

SO_Lt_Kelly says:
::exits the labs, and decides to head up to Operations to see if the CSO needs any help::

Host VAdm_Sellig_Eiluj says:
CTO:  That would be great.

SO_Lt_Kelly says:
::enters the TL, and says:: Computer: Operations

SO_Lt_Kelly says:
::waits briefly as the TL whisks her up to Ops::

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
::thinks Chinese, Italian, McDonalds?::

CSO_Ens_Hawkes says:
CTO:  Sir, we seem to be short an engineer, Lieutenant Alexander.

SO_Lt_Kelly says:
::walks into operations and up to the CSO:: CSO: Sir, here's the report on the quasar the astrometrics lab was studying. I thought you might want to see it.

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
CSO: Short as in dead?

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
::looks up::

CSO_Ens_Hawkes says:
CTO:  not on the station according to sensors...  Com badge is not registering either.

SO_Lt_Kelly says:
::waits for the CSO's reply::

CSO_Ens_Hawkes says:
Kelly:  Sorry Kelly.  ::takes report::  Aren't you off duty?

CSO_Ens_Hawkes says:
::looks over the PADD::

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
::wishes the Admiral would take a long walk off of a short pier::

SO_Lt_Kelly says:
::stammers:: CSO: No sir, not for another hour or so. Do you need any help with anything? It's getting kind of boring down in the labs.

CSO_Ens_Hawkes says:
::sniffs::  Kelly:  You change perfume or something?

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
ACO: We appear to have lost another crewmember

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
::looks at Paladine:: CTO: who?

SO_Lt_Kelly says:
CSO: Yes sir, I'm surprised you noticed. ::blushes::

Host ACO_Cmdr_Rushing says:
CTO:  Apparently those of us in here and with you might not be the culprit.

Host VAdm_Sellig_Eiluj says:
:: senses something familiar and looks around operations to see if he can find what he is looking for ::

CSO_Ens_Hawkes says:
Kelly:  Its different...  And I have nothing, you might as well knock off early

CTO_Cmdr_PaladineSky says:
ACO: Depends on the time of death

CSO_Ens_Hawkes says:
Kelly:  You hear me?  ::touches her shoulder, it feels cool::

CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
::notifies Sickbay of another missing person::

SO_Lt_Kelly says:
CSO: Aye sir, see you later sometime. ::turns and walks past the C&C entrance towards the turbolift, glancing in at the Admiral as she does::
