"To Soothe the Savage Beast"

Episode 8 
Previously on Deep Space 102:

Previously at DS102:

After a little downtime and some light activities, business is getting back to normal (whatever that is) at DS102.

Plans need to be made to come up with more effective means of closing artificial wormholes, contingencies, escape plans...

A species known by intelligence as The Avatars are possibly on their way to Federation space via artificial wormhole bent on Galactic domination like they once knew.

The only thing that may stop them...an ancient alien that looks like the Devil in most cultures, though he's less help than bystander at this point.

What plans will they be making?  Let's find out...

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Resume Mission>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
::in Mission OPS going over what they know, which isn't much::

CTO_Horn says:
@::In a Run-a-bout approaching the station::

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
::updates roster to make sure the waste management systems gets routine maintenance::

CMO_Garta says:
::in her office finishing a report on her last patient::

CNS_Rand says:
::shifts slightly while feeding her newborn son::

CTO_Horn says:
@COM:DS102: Run-a-bout Klamath to DS 102

CNS_Rand says:
::studies his face noting which feature he shares with his father and with her::

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
<OPS_Makit> COM: Kalmath:  Kalmath this is DS102.  We are reading your approach.

CTO_Horn says:
@COM:DS102: Greetings DS 102. Requesting permission to dock.

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
<OPS_Makit> COM: Kalmath: Stand by.

CMO_Garta says:
::closes the report and heads into sickbay::

CNS_Rand says:
::smiles as the baby opens his eyes:: 

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
CO: Captain, your husband's returning to the station.  I have docking bay three cleared for him.

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
<OPS_Makit> CO:  Captain, we have a runabout on approach, requesting permission to dock.

CNS_Rand says:
Baby: What should I name you, little one.  ::caresses his cheek::

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
::nods to the OPS Officer:: CO:  Permission granted.  Have Cmdr Horn report directly to OPS once he's docked.

CMO_Garta says:
::taps on the wall next to the maternity room and peeks inside:: CNS: Kalla?  How are you feeling?

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
CO: Permission to head to DB3 to supervise his arrival?

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
<OPS_Makit> CO:  Aye Sir.  COM: Klamath: Permission granted to dock.  Docking bay three.

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
CEO:  Why?  He knows how to get to OPS I'm sure.

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
CO: I meant to make sure his ship... oh, never mind.

CNS_Rand says:
::sits up:: CMO: Please come in.  I'm feeling fine, just a little tired.

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
CEO:  Besides, greeting new arrivals is my job.  ::turns towards the TL:: CEO:  You have OPS Commander.  Don't break anything while I'm gone.  ::grins to herself as she enters the turbolift::

CTO_Horn says:
@COM:DS102: Copy that DS 102, docking bay 3.

CNS_Rand says:
::nods slightly as a thought comes to mind for a name:: CMO: How are you doing?  

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
CO: Yes, ma'am.

CMO_Garta says:
CNS: That's to be expected.  Trust me, you'll be a little tired for the next few months.  It's all part of the job. ::glances over her head at the bioreadings::

Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  smells are leaking through the ventilation system from waste management...

CTO_Horn says:
@::Cuts the engines down the 1/4 impulse::

CNS_Rand says:
CMO: I don't doubt that, especially getting used to the baby's schedule.

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
*EO_Johnson*: Get a crew to report to the waste management station on the double!

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
<Johnson> *CEO*: Yes, sir!

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
::exits the Turbolift and makes her way to Docking Port 3 ...::

CTO_Horn says:
@::Brings the runabout into the stations outer doors::

CMO_Garta says:
CNS: And then that schedule will change with every growth spurt or tummy ache.  Dee Dee did that often.  The twins were just starting to go through it...::takes a deep breath:: when they moved to Q'Onos.

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
<Johnson> ::grabs three engineering crewmen and rushes to the waste management station::

CNS_Rand says:
CMO: It must be difficult for you to be apart from them.  Do you get to see them or speak with them often?

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
::arrives at the port just in time to see the shuttle begin to dock::

CTO_Horn says:
@::Cuts engines off and glides into docking bay three::

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
<Johnson> *CEO*: Sir, everything's working in here.  We just need to vent the system out of the station.

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
::notices a rather unpleasant odor:: *CEO*:  Cmdr Masters, what is going on?  I thought I told you not to break anything!

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
*Johnson*: Get it done, then.

CMO_Garta says:
CNS: I write every day and Dee Dee sends me something at least once a week.  ::forces herself to change the subject:: So, how's our little one?

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
*CO*: I didn't do anything until I smelled that odor myself.  Johnson and a crew are going to vent off the waste extraction system into space.

CTO_Horn says:
::Sets the Run-a-about down and goes through the power down process::

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
*CEO*:  Very well.  Get it done quickly, will you?

CTO_Horn says:
::Grabs his gear and debarks from the Klamath::

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
*CO*: Happening as we speak, ma'am.

CNS_Rand says:
::senses and understands the Doctors emotions and nods:: CMO: He seems quite healthy and strong for one so small...and very hungry.

CNS_Rand says:
CMO: I've finally decided on a name, he will be called Y'try'gyn

CMO_Garta says:
CNS: What does that mean? ::smiles at the baby::

CTO_Horn says:
::Steps into the docking bay and notices a foul odor::

CNS_Rand says:
CMO: Literally it means "form of man", but I think it makes a fitting name for him.

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
::waits patiently::

CTO_Horn says:
::Notices the CO waiting for him and approaches her::

CTO_Horn says:
CO: Permission to come aboard?

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
*Johnson*: Send a shot of air deodorizer through the ventilation systems.  Venting the system isn't working enough.

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
::face completely serious:: CTO:  Welcome aboard, Commander.

CMO_Garta says:
CNS: That's nice.  I'll let you two get back to some bonding time.

CTO_Horn says:
CO: Permission to kiss the captain? ::Smiles at her::

CNS_Rand says:
CMO: Are you alright, Doctor?  Jenise?

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
CTO:  Isn't that a little presumptuous of you?  ::relents and lets him kiss her::

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
<Johnson> *CEO*: Sending lysolium gas through the vents at 5 parts per million now.

CTO_Horn says:
::Reaches out to her:: CO: Not that I need permission. ::Kisses AQilla::

CMO_Garta says:
CNS: Nothing a little sleep can't cure. ::smiles and pats Kalla's arm::  See you later.

CTO_Horn says:
CO: So how have things been?

CNS_Rand says:
::nods and returns her smile:: CMO: I understand...if you ever need to talk, please don't hesitate...

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
*Johnson*: Make it 15.  We need some potent scent reduction.  And make sure that it's pine scented this time!

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
CTO:  Interesting.  Welcome home.  ::indicates for him to walk with her::

Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  The station quickly begins to smell like air freshener covering the smell of used outdoor toilets.

CTO_Horn says:
::Walks with the CO:: CO: Thanks, although it will never be quite the same.

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
CTO:  Oh?

CTO_Horn says:
CO: Don’t you miss just being out there?

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
<Johnson> *CEO*: I'm also going to add a bit of ionization to the air.  That'll aid the lysolium in the air purification.

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
CTO:  In a way, yes.  But I also am beginning to like Station life too ... much more secure for the children.

CMO_Garta says:
::nods and leaves sickbay::

CTO_Horn says:
CO: Light years away on the backside of the quadrant. Saving the Federation from this threat or that.

CNS_Rand says:
::wrinkles her nose slightly as she gets a whiff of the air freshener and shakes her head wondering what in the stars is happening::

CTO_Horn says:
CO: Those were the days.

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
CTO:  Speaking of saving the Federation ... we need to catch up.  I'd like to call all senior staff to a briefing session, and I want Dy'ybylys there was well.

CTO_Horn says:
CO: Business as usual huh?

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
CTO:  That part never changes, Russ.  ::indicates for him to enter the TL::

CTO_Horn says:
CO: How’s the baby?

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
::grins:: CTO:  Growing!

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
CTO:  She's starting to look like her father ...

Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  The odor in the air grows steadily worse in the main areas of the station

CTO_Horn says:
::Smiles:: CO: I missed you all terribly

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
*Johnson*: It's not working.  The stench is getting worse.  Flush the waste extraction into space, NOW!

CTO_Horn says:
CO: I must say I did enjoy my time on Earth.

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
<Johnson> *CEO*: Flushing.  ::presses the flush button::

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
::sniffs:: CTO:  Is it my imagination or is that smell getting worse?

CTO_Horn says:
CO: SFI is a madhouse these days.

CTO_Horn says:
CO: Yes it is. What is that?

Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  The Flush does nothing...

CNS_Rand says:
::rubs Y'try'gyn's back until he burps, then moves over to the table to change his diaper::  Y'try'gyn: I believe you are going to have your father's eyes.

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
CTO:  Apparently some glitch in the waste disposal system.

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
*Johnson*: Activate the air purification network!

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
::arrives at Main OPS to find the stench worse than on the Promenade:: CEO:  What is going on?

CTO_Horn says:
CO: I suggest we have that meeting on the Scorp.

CMO_Garta says:
*CEO*: Commander, do I need to get something available for nausea?  I assume your people are working on the smell problem.

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
CO: We're trying to rid the stench, but whatever we try either doesn't work or makes it worse.  We're going to activate the air purification network.  Maybe the negative ions and carbon filtration will get rid of the smell.

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
CTO:  Agreed.  Have all senior staff report there as soon as possible, except Commander Masters ... he's going to fix our odor problem personally!

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
*CMO*: Only for those with weak stomachs.

CTO_Horn says:
CO: Maybe we should open some windows.

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
::glares at the CTO's comment to the CO:: CTO: Very funny, sir!

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
::chuckles:: CTO:  Nice idea ...

CMO_Garta says:
::heads up to Operations::

Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  the air purifiers keep the smell from getting worse but do not completely eliminate it

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
*Dy*:  Captain Horn to Dy'ybylys.

CNS_Rand says:
::disposes of the soiled diaper and replaces it with a clean one then returns to bed:: Y'try'gyn: You are already back to sleep, I think your mommy is going to nap with you.

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
All: Smell has stabilized.  *Johnson*: Turn the exterior vent fans on high.

CNS_Rand says:
::gets comfortable with the baby cuddled close::

CTO_Horn says:
::Activates a COM panel:: All: Attention all hands, Senior staff please report to the Observation lounge on the USS Scorpius immediately. All senior staff to the observation lounge of the Scorpius.

CTO_Horn says:
::Shuts off the COM panel::

CTO_Horn says:
CO: Shall I walk you to the meeting?

CMO_Garta says:
::steps off the lift to station ops as she gets the announcement::

CMO_Garta says:
CTO: Now you tell me. ::shakes her head and smiles::

CTO_Horn says:
::Turns and sees Garta::

Host Gerry says:
<Dy> *CO*: Yes, Captain, you paged?

CTO_Horn says:
CMO: I tell you what.

CMO_Garta says:
::turns back to the lift:: CTO: Yes?

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
*EO_Larson*: Engineering, make sure the oxygen generators are at full speed.  We're venting the stench with the exterior vent fans on high.

CTO_Horn says:
CMO: I just told ya.

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
<Larson> *CEO*: Aye, sir.

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
*Dy*:  I did.  Can you meet myself and my senior staff on the Scorpius as soon as possible?  I want to go over what we can do to stop the Avatars, and I am going to hold you to your promise to help.

Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  The smell does not get better but gets no worse

CMO_Garta says:
::grins:: CTO: Let me guess, you spent time in Texas on your leave...

CTO_Horn says:
CMO: I always get home when I am on earth.

Host Gerry says:
<Dy> *CO*: I will endeavor to join you as soon as possible, Captain.

CNS_Rand says:
::hears the announcement and smiles, then gets up to change.::

CMO_Garta says:
CTO: Good, home is important. ::steps back onto the lift::

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
*Dy*:  Thank you.  Horn out.  ::turns:: All: Let's go people.

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
*CO*: Captain, it seems the smell and my staff are at a stalemate, emphasis on the stale.

CTO_Horn says:
CO: Are you ready?

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
*CEO*:  Then break it, Commander.  ::getting frustrated::

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
CTO:  Ready as I'll ever be.  Let's go.

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
*Johnson*: Ensign, there must be something we have on the station that can rid the stench!

CNS_Rand says:
::places the baby in a sling and secures him to her before leaving her room in sickbay::

CMO_Garta says:
::holds the lift for the CO and CTO::

CTO_Horn says:
CO: My trip from earth to here is the longest time I have had with out being in meetings and briefings and lectures.

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
::enters the lift::

CTO_Horn says:
::Joins the CO on the lift::

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
<Johnson> ::finds a book of matches in his uniform and lights one::

CMO_Garta says:
::orders the lift to the docking ring:: CTO: And you loved every minute of it, I'm sure. ::laughs::

CTO_Horn says:
CO: Well I did enjoy giving lectures at the Academy.

CNS_Rand says:
::makes her way to the lift::

CTO_Horn says:
CO: I must tell you that the President is very worried over the current situation.

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
CTO:  That's one thing I don't ever want to do ... I prefer being out here

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
<Johnson> *CEO*: Nope, matches don't work.

CTO_Horn says:
CO: That is the main reason I was sent back here when I was.

CTO_Horn says:
CO: Its great as just a every now and then thing.

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
CTO:  Which is why we have to come up with some sort of plan ... and I believe Dy will help us.

CTO_Horn says:
CO: I still don’t trust him.

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
CTO:  Neither do I.  But I do believe he is sincere in his wish to help us.

CMO_Garta says:
::stands quietly behind the CO and CTO::

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
CMO:  And what do you think, Doctor?

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
Self: And burning the contents will make the smell worse.  I wish I would have paid attention more to Prof. T'Karth's lecture on waste management.

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
<Johnson> *CEO*: Sir, don't we have some enzymes on the station that can eat through this mess?

CMO_Garta says:
CO: I think a plan would be wise. ::tries to focus past her thoughts::

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
*Johnson*: You know, that might work. *CMO*: Masters to Garta, does sickbay have a supply of enzymes?

CNS_Rand says:
::makes her way to the Scorpius::

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
::exits the TL and makes her way to where the Scorpius is docked::

CMO_Garta says:
*CEO*: What type of enzymes are you needing, Commander? ::raises an eyebrow::

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
*CMO*: The kind that can eat waste matter.

CTO_Horn says:
::Follows his wife::

CTO_Horn says:
CO: By the way?

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
::looks at him:: CTO:  By the way, what?

Host Gerry says:
<Dy> ::appears in a flash of bright light in the meeting room on the Scorpius and looks around::

CTO_Horn says:
CO: We have a dinner date tonight.

CMO_Garta says:
*CEO*: I don't normally keep much in stock but you can cultivate from what I have.  See Nurse Higgins and she'll give you something to start.

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
CTO:  Do we?  I don't recall scheduling in a dinner date ... ::grins::

CMO_Garta says:
::follows far behind the CO and CTO::

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
*CMO*: Thank you, doctor.  OPS: You have Ops.  ::heads to the TL:: Computer: Infirmary.

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
::boards the Scorpius and heads for the conference lounge::

CTO_Horn says:
CO: You better double check. I scheduled that before I left.

CTO_Horn says:
CO: Not my problem if you forgot.

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
CTO:  Don't worry, I will ...

CMO_Garta says:
::arrives at the lounge and takes a seat::

CTO_Horn says:
CO: Besides, you have to come to bed sometime.

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
::grins:: CTO:  Yes I do ... but as Captain I can sleep wherever I wish ... ::grinning broadly::

CTO_Horn says:
CO: You are just trying today aren’t you?

CEO_LtCmdr_Masters says:
::thinks of a configuration to deploy the enzymes once produced::

CO_Capt_A_Horn says:
::laughing:: CTO:  Yes I am ...

CTO_Horn says:
::Laughs::

Host Gerry says:
<Dy'ybylys>  ALL:  ::reveals himself and grins mischievously::  I suppose you're all wondering why I called this meeting...

Host Gerry says:
