Deep Space 102 - Mission Transcript - 10911.20

Prologue: Time Lapse: 5 hours.

Last time on Deep Space 102:

Crew were put under test in a certainly bizarre way, in a tactical holodeck simulation drill, designed by Admiral Laroux. After almost an hour of fighting two simulated Cardassian ships, the crew is now back to normal... err... whatever can be considered normal aboard this Station. The Delegates from the Deja'Wu world are about to arrive at any minute now.

Let us see what happens.

<CTO_Cmdr_Ryan>
 *SC*: Last update I had was ETA 1 hour, Sir.  ::Pokes her index finger into the neckline of her dress uniform and tugs on the collar to loosen it::

<SC_Capt_Marek>
 *CO*: Of course, Captain, that's the idea. Please feel free to indicate any changes.

<SC_Capt_Marek>
 *CTO*: Thanks Commander.

<SC_Capt_Marek>
 ::thinks:: Ok, time to get dress then.

<CNS_LtCmdr_Rand>
 ::studies her reflection in the mirror and steps back checking for creases, shrugs slightly::

<CTO_Cmdr_Ryan>
 ::Looks at the security detail's uniforms:: Security Detail: Straighten up your uniforms, gentlemen.  You look like you just got out of your racks.

<SC_Capt_Marek>
 ::exits his office, feeling rather uncomfortable for the dress uniform::

<MO_Ens_Maren>
 Turbolift: Main Operations.

<CTO_Cmdr_Ryan>
 ::Motions for civilians to stay clear of the airlock and motions for the security detail to spread out a bit to keep people a safe distance away::

<Deja_Wu_Pilot>
 @COM: Deep Space 102: This is Pilot 1 from Deja'Wu Diplomat Vessel "Return", requesting permission to dock.

 <MO_Ens_Maren>
 ::steps off of the lift in main operations::

<CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi>
 :: sitting in his Ready Room, reading the Station Commander's report for Starfleet ::

<CSO_Ens_S`aumo>
 ::her chronometer beeps and she looks down:: Self: Oh no!

<Deja_Wu_Pilot>
 @::wonders why do no get any answer from the Station::

<MO_Ens_Maren>
 ::stands at attention and waits::

<CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi>
 *SC*: Captain Marek, I'm being told the delegation is an hour away on sensor, I suggest taking the Scorpius toward it, meeting midway and escorting them to DS-102

<CNS_LtCmdr_Rand>
 ::straightens her hem and heads out for the meeting::

<CTO_Cmdr_Ryan> <Relief OPS>

<CTO_Cmdr_Ryan> <Relief OPS>
 SC: Aye, Sir.

CTCP SOUND: TurboLift.wav  from XO_Cmdr_Mitchell 

<MO_Ens_Maren>
 ::has figured out by now that the senior staff is busy and not in Main Operations:: ::drops attention and gets back on the lift, trying to ignore a strange look from a random crewman::

<CTO_Cmdr_Ryan> <Relief OPS>
 COM: Deja'Wu: Deja'Wu vessel.  This is DS-102.  The Federation Starship, USS Scorpius will rendezvous with you and escort you the rest of the way to the station.

<SC_Capt_Marek>
 ::suddenly remembers something:: *XO*: Commander, please see that our new MO is properly welcome.

<CNS_LtCmdr_Rand>
 ::walks to the nearest lift and enters when it arrives::

<MO_Ens_Maren>
 ::has not decided where to go yet, but apparently someone else has summoned the lift, as it is moving:: Self: Well, I really know how to make a great first impression... if anyone even notices.

<XO_Cmdr_Mitchell>  *SC*: Sir, I'm on my way to meet the Deja'Wu at Docking Bay 3.

<CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi>
 @aOPS: Hail the delegation, tell them about our mission to escort them

<SC_Capt_Marek>
 *XO*: Darn, I am on my way there too.

<CTO_Cmdr_Ryan> <Relief OPS> 
*CTO*: Commander, the Deja`Wu vessel has been cleared for docking.  The Scorpius will be escorting.

<CMO_Cmdr_Turok>
 ::Exits his office::

<MO_Ens_Maren>
 ::steps off of the lift when it stops, as if it were this one's destination, so that the person getting off won't think that the new ensign is lost::

<CTO_Cmdr_Ryan>
 *Relief OPS*: Acknowledged.  ::Motions for the Security detail to get into positions::

<MO_Ens_Maren>
 ::suddenly realizes that this one is in the middle of some sort of waste reclamation processing::

<SC_Capt_Marek>
 *CTO*: Commander, the new Medical officer is on her way to Main Operations, please see to give an informal welcome and our excuses until the XO and I are back to Main Operations.

<CTO_Cmdr_Ryan>
 *SC*: Sir, I am at the airlock with the security detail.

<MO_Ens_Maren> <Waste Reclamation Crewman>
 MO: Uh...can I help you, sir?

<CTO_Cmdr_Ryan>
 *SC*: Shouldn't Commander Turok do the honors, Sir?

<CSO_Ens_S`aumo>
 ::exits the TL and runs down the hall to meet the other officers::

<SC_Capt_Marek>
 *CTO/XO*: Darn, I must be getting old, really old.  I am afraid to ask, where is Commander Turok?

<SC_Capt_Marek>
 ::arrives at the level of Docking Bay 3 and steps off the turbolift::

<MO_Ens_Maren>
 Crewman: Um...no. I'm just here to... inspect the safety of the station's waste reclamation. I'm a... medical officer, so I like to do that when I report to a new assignment.

<CTO_Cmdr_Ryan>
 ::Taps combadge:: *CMO*: Ryan to Dr. Turok.

<SC_Capt_Marek> 
ACTION: Marek suddenly receives a strange notification on his PADD. He reads it and raises an eyebrow.

<CMO_Cmdr_Turok>
  *CTO* Turok Here.

<XO_Cmdr_Mitchell>
 *SC*: Don't know off-hand Captain, but imagine in Sickbay?

<MO_Ens_Maren> <Waste Reclamation Crewman>
 MO: Is this your first assignment, sir?

<SC_Capt_Marek> ::arrives to Docking Bay 3, put his PADD aside and salute the rest of the officers there::

<CTO_Cmdr_Ryan> *CMO*: Your new Medical Officer has arrived, Doctor.  You might want to locate her and do the honors, so to speak.

<XO_Cmdr_Mitchell> :: finally arrives at Docking Bay 3 Turbolift Station::

<MO_Ens_Maren> Crewman: Yes, so I'm actually starting a new habit. But I'll look when I get to my next assignment as well. Good waste disposal is imperative to the health of the entire crew.

<MO_Ens_Maren> <Waste Reclamation Crewman>
 MO: ::laughing:: So it is, sir. As long as you're not lost.

<CMO_Cmdr_Turok>
 *CTO*: Aye.

<SC_Capt_Marek>
 XO: Yes Commander, but as I told you, I was afraid to ask, just in case the answer was "he is here in Docking Bay 3".. ::raises an eyebrow::

<CMO_Cmdr_Turok>
 Computer: Locate MO Maren.

<CTO_Cmdr_Ryan>
 ::Tugs on uniform::

<SC_Capt_Marek>
 CNS: Something we should pay attention with the protocol?

<CTO_Cmdr_Ryan> <Computer>
 CMO: Medical Officer Ensign Maren is located in Waste Reclamation.

<MO_Ens_Maren>
 Crewman: No. No. I'm not lost... I just don't exactly know where I am. ::laughs with him:: I went to Main Operations to report in and everyone was busy, so I got on the lift and it just started moving. I can find my way back once I figure out where to go, though. Maybe I should just go to Sickbay and let them know I wasn't able to report in.

<MO_Ens_Maren> <Waste Reclamation Crewman>
 MO: Maybe that would be a good idea, sir. ::They both die laughing as the MO gets back on the lift::

<XO_Cmdr_Mitchell>
 SC: Aye Sir.

<CMO_Cmdr_Turok>
 Self: Waste reclamation, lovely.

<MO_Ens_Maren>
 Turbolift: Sickbay.

<SC_Capt_Marek>
 ::his mind still a little concern for what he has just read on his PADD::

<CMO_Cmdr_Turok>
 *MO*: Ensign Maren, This is Commander Turok the Chief Medical Officer of the station, Perhaps we could meet in the infirmary.

<MO_Ens_Maren>
 *CMO* Yes, sir. Already on my way, sir.

<CSO_Ens_S`aumo>
 ::runs for the airlock::

<MO_Ens_Maren>
 ::the waste reclamation crewman heard that as the door closed and laughed again, as Maren stifled laugher as well::

<CMO_Cmdr_Turok>
 ::Turns around and heads back to his office::

<SC_Capt_Marek> 
Action: Time warp: The Medical Officer reaches Sickbay. The Deja'Wu vessel is about to dock.

<CMO_Cmdr_Turok>
 MO: Greetings I am Turok, Welcome aboard Ensign.

<SC_Capt_Marek> <Deja'Wu Pilot 1>
 #Pilot 2: Be sure you do fine this time. I do not want to give any more explanations, ok??

<MO_Ens_Maren>
 ::standing at attention:: CMO: Thank you, Commander.

<SC_Capt_Marek> <Deja'Wu Pilot 2>
 ::gives a bad look to Pilot 1 and concentrate back on the maneuvres::

<CSO_Ens_S`aumo>
 ::slips and falls as she reaches the other officers::

<MO_Ens_Maren>
 CMO: This is the first time I've done this, so is that the official "reporting in"?

<CNS_LtCmdr_Rand>
 ::joins the others in the docking bay::

<CTO_Cmdr_Ryan> ::Looks down at the CSO as she falls and bounces back up again.  Thinks: Must be nice to be a cat::

<CTO_Cmdr_Ryan>
 ::Nods to the CNS::

<CSO_Ens_S`aumo>
 ::gets up and dusts her uniform off::

<SC_Capt_Marek> <Deja'Wu Pilot 2>
 @COM: Deep Space 102: This is the "Return" once again. Initiating final approach is 10 seconds. Hope we are up to your procedures.

<CMO_Cmdr_Turok>
 MO: Technically, yes and relax I am pretty informal in here just be on your toes around the Station Commander and XO and you will be fine.

<CTO_Cmdr_Ryan> <Relief OPS> COM: Return: Trajectory is spot on.  Opening docking bay doors.  ::Taps console::

<CMO_Cmdr_Turok>
 MO: You have jump in the fire, so to speak, during an exciting time.

<CNS_LtCmdr_Rand>
 ::returns the CTO's greeting::  All: from what I understand, they proper greeting with the Deja'wu is a simple bow they prefer no physical contact

<SC_Capt_Marek> <Deja'Wu Pilot 2>
 @COM: Deep Space 102: Roger that. Final impulse engage. Thanks for the assistance. Return out.

<MO_Ens_Maren>
 CMO: Thank you, sir. ::begins looking around the bay and inspecting the equipment:: ::after being told about jumping into the fire:: Well, I'm ready. They toyed with my sensors, so I thought we were going to have casualties from the Cardassians that never were.

<CTO_Cmdr_Ryan>
 ::Nods to the CNS:: CNS: A bow huh?  Okay, I can do that.

<SC_Capt_Marek> <Deja'Wu Pilot 1>
 Pilot 2: Inform the Delegates.  I wonder what will they complaint about this time? ::mumbles something between his green teeth::

<SC_Capt_Marek>
 CNS: A bow. Ok. I have seen worst.

<CMO_Cmdr_Turok>
 MO: Never a dull moment around here.

<MO_Ens_Maren>
 CMO: Just the same, I'm glad that one wasn't real.

<CNS_LtCmdr_Rand>
 All: Agreed, there are certainly more awkward greetings

<SC_Capt_Marek>
Action: The vessel docked and the Delegates disembark. Description: Short, pallid green skin, no visible hair, big ears and colorful clothes.

<CTO_Cmdr_Ryan>
 All SF Officers at the airlock: Ten.. Hut!

<CTO_Cmdr_Ryan>
 ::Snaps to attention as the delegates approach the airlock::

<CMO_Cmdr_Turok>
 MO: True, true.

CTCP SOUND: Bosun's\@Pipe.wav  from XO_Cmdr_Mitchell 

<XO_Cmdr_Mitchell>
 ::comes to full attention::

<CSO_Ens_S`aumo>
 ::peeks out of the line and twitches her ears at the aliens::

<MO_Ens_Maren>
 ::continues looking at the equipment:: ::begins scanning through the controls of one of the biobeds::

<SC_Capt_Marek>
 ::gives an step forward, and salutes the delegates with an very formal bow, then gives the more familiar Vulcan salute::

<CTO_Cmdr_Ryan>
 ::Bows as they exit the airlock, but keeps her eyes on them at the same time::

<CMO_Cmdr_Turok>
 MO: So are you prepared to meet are VIP's?

<SC_Capt_Marek>
 Deja'Wu Delegate: Live long and prosper. Welcome aboard the Deep Station 102. It is a great pleasure to...

<MO_Ens_Maren>
 CMO: Honestly, I'd rather be taking bioscans of them, but I guess diplomacy goes with Starfleet.

<MO_Ens_Maren>
 ::hates dress uniforms:: ::they may not be gendered, but they feel that way::

<CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi>
 @aFCO: Set standard orbit around the station

<CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi>
 @aCTO: Eyes opened on long range sensors

<SC_Capt_Marek> <Bert'o>
 ::bows:: SC: Yes, yes. Let's be more expeditive, ok? Let's forget about this and please indicate the way, will you?

<CTO_Cmdr_Ryan>
 ::Motions for the Security detail to take their positions around the delegates::

<CMO_Cmdr_Turok>
 MO: Let us be on our way then. We can't keep the Ambassadors waiting.

<SC_Capt_Marek>
 ::gives a look at the rest of the officers:: Bert'o: Very well, if you insist. ::signals the Docking Bay exit::

<CTO_Cmdr_Ryan>
 ::Whispers:: SC: Where are we taking them, Sir?

<MO_Ens_Maren>
 CMO: Aye, sir.

<SC_Capt_Marek>
 ::whispers:: CTO: Let's escort them to their quarters until the meeting begin. ::taps on his PADD:: According to this, in two hours.

<CSO_Ens_S`aumo>
 ::looks confused::

<SC_Capt_Marek>
 Bert'o: We will escort you to your quarters, and..

<CTO_Cmdr_Ryan>
 ::Nods to the Station Commander then takes the lead in front of the delegates::

<XO_Cmdr_Mitchell>
 ::falls in behind the delegates thinking, "So much for protocol"::

<SC_Capt_Marek> <Bert'o>
 SC: I hope they are up to our explicit indication.

<CTO_Cmdr_Ryan>
 ::Watches as three security officers break the crowd of civilians ahead of the delegates::

<SC_Capt_Marek> <Bert'o>
 ::walks quickly and heavily towards the turbolift, having the rest of the delegation to follow him::

<MO_Ens_Maren>
 CMO: I passed the basic training requirements, but it is not my strongest interest. It will be intriguing to meet them, though.

<CTO_Cmdr_Ryan>
 ::Motions for the delegates and officers to enter the turbolift::

<SC_Capt_Marek>
 Action: They arrived at the Turbolift doors.

<SC_Capt_Marek>
 Bert'o: Commander Mitchell will escort you to your quarters. Unfortunately, I have the most urgent task that requires my attention right now. I will meet you again during the Conference.

<CMO_Cmdr_Turok>
 ::prepares to step out of the turbolift::

<SC_Capt_Marek>
 ::gives the "I'm so sorry" look to the XO, nods, and then heads towards the other TL::

<MO_Ens_Maren>
 ::steps behind the CMO::

<CSO_Ens_S`aumo>
 ::glances around at the rest of the officers, feeling a bit confused::

<SC_Capt_Marek>
 *CMO*: Commander, did Ensign Maren arrived?

<XO_Cmdr_Mitchell>
 Bert'o: If you will all follow me please. ::heads towards nearest turbolift::

<CMO_Cmdr_Turok>
 *SC*: Yes Sir, right here with me now.

<SC_Capt_Marek>
 *CMO*: Very well, I will meet him... err...  her....  it in a moment.

<CMO_Cmdr_Turok>
 ::Steps of the turbolift and bumps into the ambassadors::

<MO_Ens_Maren>
 ::hopes that the SC doesn't hear this one giggling in the background of the CMO's combadge at being called "it"::

<XO_Cmdr_Mitchell> 
Bert'o: Sir, I am not very familiar with your species. Is there anything special you need that I could arrange for?

<CTO_Cmdr_Ryan>
 ::Eyes the Doctor but doesn't say anything::

<SC_Capt_Marek> <Bert'o>
 XO: Ok. Your Turbolift are not faster, are they? ::looks really impatient::

<CMO_Cmdr_Turok>
 Bert'o: Oh I beg your pardon.

<SC_Capt_Marek> <Bert'o>
 XO: Just treat us as we deserved, and everything will be all right.

<XO_Cmdr_Mitchell>
 Bert'o: Perhaps you did not notice how big this station is Sir. It will just take a minute or so more.

<SC_Capt_Marek> <Bert'o>
 XO: If you say so...
