Host Hebert says:
Summary:  The crew is now preparing to complete their mission.  At this time, a prison is about 10 kilometers to the east, and a burned up, on fire shuttle has crashed 20 kilometers to the south.
Host Hebert says:
We continue, "Back to Basics"

<<<<<< RESUME MISSION >>>>>
Host Hebert says:
ACTION:  As the crew looks around, they notice the CO is missing.  And the CTO is materializing in their midst.
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
::sitting on a fallen tree, eating an MRE, looks up after chowing down on some grub as the CTO materializes::  
XO_Horn says:
::Raises his phaser rifle at the form unexpectedly materializing in front of him::
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
CTO:  Hey, welcome to the party.
XO_Horn says:
CTO: Where did you come from?
XO_Horn says:
::Lowers his rifle::
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
::looks to where the CO was, then looks around the immediate area::  ALL:  Hey, anyone see where the Captain got off too?
CTO_Telgar says:
XO:  Do I have to explain to you where babies come from Commander?
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
::stands::
CTO_Telgar says:
:: grins ::
XO_Horn says:
CTO: Do I have to explain how easy it is to get shot when you appear out of nowhere?
XO_Horn says:
CSO: She was just right there.
CTO_Telgar says:
XO:  Not really Commander, it's my job to know these things and you should have been warned by the ship.  They said they sent a message.
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
::moves closer to the XO and CTO::  XO:  Yeah, and now she's not.
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
CO:  Captain!
XO_Horn says:
CTO: By the way, I have three children, I believe I have figured that part out.
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
::takes out tricorder and scans area::
CTO_Telgar says:
:: chuckles :: CSO:  What do you mean the Captain is missing?
CTO_Telgar says:
CSO:  How do you lose a whole person?
XO_Horn says:
CSO: Any readings on the captain?
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
::looks at the CTO then back at the tricorder::  CTO:  She is M I S S I N G.  ::smiles::
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
XO:  Nothing within range sir.
XO_Horn says:
CTO: Contact the ship and let them know that the captain is missing. Make it short and sweet, I don't want any transmissions being picked up.
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
XO:  Maybe they already know where we are?
XO_Horn says:
CSO: Doubtful.
XO_Horn says:
CSO: However we do need to get a move on.
CTO_Telgar says:
:: nods :: *Pearl*  This is the away team, the Captain is missing.
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
XO:  I'm not picking up any residual transporter traces.  Agreed sir.  We should push on.  Do we make for the remains of the shuttle or the prison?
CTO_Telgar says:
:: tries again ::
CTO_Telgar says:
*Pearl*  This is the away team, the Captain is missing.
CTO_Telgar says:
XO:  Sir, I am getting no response from the Pearl.
XO_Horn says:
All: Damn, This just keeps getting better!!!
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
XO:  sir?  ::reads tricorder contact::
XO_Horn says:
CSO: What?
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
XO:  I am picking up a faint human life sign.  Could be the Captain.
XO_Horn says:
CSO: Which way and how far?
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
XO:  30 meters, northeast of us.
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
::gathers up his gear into his pack and slings it on over his shoulder::
CTO_Telgar says:
CSO:  The Captain isn't fully human.
XO_Horn says:
All: Let's check out the life sign.
CTO_Telgar says:
XO:  Aye Commander.
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
CTO:  I know, she's part Betazoid.  Perhaps I should have said humanoid.
XO_Horn says:
All: Lets move!
XO_Horn says:
CSO: Lead the way.
CTO_Telgar says:
CSO:  Perhaps.  :: grins and sets off towards the life sign reading ::
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
::follows the XO, rolls his eyes at the CTO::
XO_Horn says:
CSO: What is that saying?
XO_Horn says:
::Trips and stumbles::
XO_Horn says:
Self: What the.......
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
XO:  Sir, aye sir.  ::takes the lead, moving over the rough terrain::
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
XO:  All-right back there Commander?
XO_Horn says:
::Pulls away some foliage and finds the captain::
XO_Horn says:
All: Hurry over here.
CTO_Telgar says:
::  rushes over to where the XO is ::
XO_Horn says:
CTO: Hand me the first aide kit out of my pack.
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
::stops and turns to the XO, checks his tricorder:: Self: Hmmm, calibration must be all messed up
XO_Horn says:
CSO: Ya Think!
XO_Horn says:
CTO: It's in the top right pocket.
CTO_Telgar says:
:: gets the first aide kit and hands it to the XO ::
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
XO:  Well sir, It's not like I expected to be jumping out of shuttles ::smiles::
XO_Horn says:
CSO: Get that thing calibrated.
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
XO:  aye sir.
XO_Horn says:
::Starts working on the captain's leg.::
CTO_Telgar says:
CSO:  Took the long way down did you?  :: smiles ::
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
CTO:  Yeah, you missed all the fun
XO_Horn says:
::Gets the bleeding stopped and the injury wrapped::
CTO_Telgar says:
CSO:  Sounds like it.
XO_Horn says:
CSO: We need to get her to the ship!!
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
::checks his tricorder spatial orientation sub-routine, finds it to be in perfect working order::  Self: Mmm, there's something about this place.  It's mucking up the works.
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
::checks for localized disturbances, using a full spectrum scan::
CTO_Telgar says:
:: taps her COM badge :: *Pearl* This is the away team, we need to beam the Captain to sickbay.
XO_Horn says:
CTO: That wound looked like a bite of some sort.
CTO_Telgar says:
XO:  I didn't bring any medical supplies outside of first aide materials.
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
XO:  Some of the snakes in this jungle are quite poisonous.  
XO_Horn says:
All: Damn it, If they don't answer somebody's backside is gonna be in it really deep.
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
XO:  I don't think we're going to be able to contact the ship.  If they were under attack they might have left orbit
XO_Horn says:
CSO: What are our chances of finding the planets control station. They have a sickbay there.
CTO_Telgar says:
XO:  I know they are monitoring us.  Perhaps we should try to contact them.
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
CSO:  One would think they would be monitoring communications.  They should already be aware that there is a problem
XO_Horn says:
CSO: Try it
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
::taps comm. badge::  *wide*:  This is Lieutenant Cooper Hawkes to anyone within range of my signal...  We are declaring a medical emergency and require immediate assistance.  Can anyone respond?
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
::shakes head::  XO:  Nothing sir.
XO_Horn says:
CTO/CSO: Let's make a sled.
XO_Horn says:
CTO/CSO: The captain is going with us
CTO_Telgar says:
:: nods ::
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
::nods, and looks for something to use, moves off::
XO_Horn says:
::Pulls out a phaser and starts cutting a couple of large branches off a tree::
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
::finds some hanging vines and begins to gather it up::
CTO_Telgar says:
:: digs out rope from her pack ::
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
::brings back some vine, but sees the CTO has brought some robe.  Rolls his eyes and throws the vine down to the ground::  CTO:  Rope...  I should have remembered to pack rope.
CTO_Telgar says:
CTO:  That's my job.  :: grins and winks ::
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
::shakes head::  Self:  Tactical officers.
XO_Horn says:
CSO: We tactical officers think of everything. We are never over prepared.
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
XO:  yeah yeah yeah.  ::laughs::
CTO_Telgar says:
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
:: chuckles ::
XO_Horn says:
CTO: We about ready?
CTO_Telgar says:
:: nods :: XO:  I think so Commander.
XO_Horn says:
CSO: Let's get the captain on this rig.
CTO_Telgar says:
:: finishes tying the branches to together. ::
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
XO:  All-right.  ::gets down on knees and helps relocate the Captain::
CTO_Telgar says:
XO/CSO:  We could use those vines the CSO tore down to cover her with.
XO_Horn says:
CTO: Good thinking.
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
CTO:  Bondage eh?  Nice.
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
CTO:  Oh, you mean to secure her to the thing.
CTO_Telgar says:
CSO:  You never know.  :: winks and grins ::
XO_Horn says:
CTO/CSO: Ok, Options?
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
XO:  I say we make for the training operations center.  
CTO_Telgar says:
:: nods :: XO:  I'd have to agree with Lt Hawkes here.
XO_Horn says:
CTO/CSO: Ok you two get the captain to safety, I will head for the prison.
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
::scans with tricorder, widest possible range, full spectrum::
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
XO:  Sir, You can't complete this mission alone
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
XO:  Its over.
XO_Horn says:
CSO: Yes I can. I just need the explosives you are carrying.
XO_Horn says:
CSO: I have played this scenario before in real life.
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
::hands them over to the XO::  XO:  I still say it's going to go badly for you.  You don't have a complete picture of the situation, none of us do.
CTO_Telgar says:
XO:  I can't let you go alone Sir.
XO_Horn says:
::Takes the explosives:: CSO: That is why I have a tricorder, and carrying an arsenal.
XO_Horn says:
CSO/CTO: When you see a cloud rising from the planet and hear the boom you will know that I accomplished the goal.
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
XO:  or you've been blown to hell
XO_Horn says:
CSO: Risk is part of the job.
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
XO:  Suicide isn't, sir.
XO_Horn says:
CSO: I know that. That is why you and Telgar are going to make sure that somebody pays a heavy price for this whole situation if I don't return.
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
XO:  Of course sir.  In as so far as this is just a training exercise.
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
::looks to the CTO::  CTO:  Shall we?
XO_Horn says:
::Picks up his phaser rifle and heads off towards the prison::
CTO_Telgar says:
CSO:  I can't.  I can't let him go alone.
CTO_Telgar says:
CSO:  It's my job.
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
CTO:  I can stay here with the Captain.  She's light enough, I can drag her out.  Give Commander Horn some backup, weather he wants it or not
CTO_Telgar says:
:: nods :: CSO:  Good luck.
CTO_Telgar says:
:: takes off after the XO ::
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
CTO:  Yeah, you too
XO_Horn says:
::Is making good progress through the jungle::
CSO_LT_Hawkes says:
::starts to drag the CO through the jungle, making not so good progress::
CTO_Telgar says:
:: comes up behind the XO :: XO:  I couldn't let you go alone.
CTO_Telgar says:
XO:  Besides, you need the weapons I brought.  :: smiles ::
XO_Horn says:
CTO: I knew you would follow me.
CTO_Telgar says:
:: nods ::
XO_Horn says:
CTO: After this is over we will talk about following orders.
XO_Horn says:
::Grins at the CTO::
