Host Brett says:
Summary: The Delphyne has caught up with the missing freighter, and its
abductors.  Now, after convincing the Pakleds of the danger inherant in their
prize, the question remains: What to do to save their away team?

Host Brett says:
<<<<Resume Mission: "The Corialis Incident - Part 8">>>>

CO_Mash`ev says:
COM: Pakled: CO: We want to help you. We'd like to beam your away team here, first, to make
sure that they're going to be alright.

CSO_Rhykmal says:
::having heard the FCO's report, thinks about the Pakled problem:: *CO*: May I suggest we set
up containment areas for the two types of pakleds... the infected and the non infected?

Host Brett says:
<PakledCO> COM: Delphyne: CO: O.k.  You will help them.

Ens_Everyman says:
<FCO> CO: Maintaining course and distance on the freighter.

CO_Mash`ev says:
*CSO*: I'll do everything I can. We could beam the non-infected Pakled in with you in the Cargo
Bay? If you'd like some company, that is?

CSO_Rhykmal says:
*CO*: I'd like to make sure he does not get infected if he isn't already... can we sent up a
containment area and beam him in it?

CO_Mash`ev says:
TO: Lock onto the Pakled away team. Use the scanner reports from the FCO and beam the
infected Pakleds into one holding cell of the brig and the non-infected Pakled into a separate
holding cell.

Ens_Everyman says:
<TO> CO: Aye sir. ::Begins the transport process::   Preparing a security team to send to the
brig.

Ens_Everyman says:
<TO> *CSO*: The Pakled are being transported and seperated now, sir.

Host Brett says:
Action: The Pakleds are captured by the transporter beam, and through its
scanners those infected are identified.  It is then that the Transporter chief
makes a call to the bridge.

Host Brett says:
<TRChief> *CO*: Captain, I have the infected Pakleds in the beam...I can isolate
these parasites...

CSO_Rhykmal says:
*TO*: Alright... ::waits:: are they being beamed here?

CO_Mash`ev says:
*TRChief*: Hold on. Let me run this past the Away Team.

CO_Mash`ev says:
*CSO*: The transporter cheif says he has the infected Pakled's pattern in the buffer and can
isolate the parasite.

CSO_Rhykmal says:
::blinks surprised:: *CO*: Do it.

CO_Mash`ev says:
*CSO*: Do you want to oversee that?

CSO_Rhykmal says:
*CO*: Transporter chief has more experience than I in such things... it would be fascinating,
however...

CO_Mash`ev says:
*CSO*: I'll meet you in transporter room one.

CO_Mash`ev says:
FCO: You have the conn. Contact me if the Pakleds try to call us.

Ens_Everyman says:
<TO>: Request permission to send a team to meet with the CSO, just in the event that the
process fails.

CSO_Rhykmal says:
::nods though he cannot see her, turns to the MO still here, Dr. Freeze:: MO: Watch over the
parasite in containment here... *CO*: On my way.

Ens_Everyman says:
<FCO> CO: Aye sir.

CSO_Rhykmal says:
::exits the cargo bay for transporer room 1::

CO_Mash`ev says:
TO: Granted. We'll have a containment field in place, just in case.

CO_Mash`ev says:
:: Goes to TL, calls for Transporter Room One. ::

CSO_Rhykmal says:
::gets in the lift and goes to the transporter room::

Ens_Everyman says:
<TO>*SEC*: Send a team to meet with the CSO in transorter room one.

CO_Mash`ev says:
*TRChief*: I'm on my way. Put a containment field up but hold on materialization until I get there.

Host Brett says:
<PakledCO> COM: Delphyne: CO: Are we safe now?

Ens_Everyman says:
<OPS> FCO: The pakled are contacting us, asking if they are safe.

CO_Mash`ev says:
:: Arrives at Transporter Room One. ::

CSO_Rhykmal says:
::arrives in the transporter room:: CO: It is agreeable to see you again. ::nods politely::

Ens_Everyman says:
<FCO> OPS: Open a channel.

CO_Mash`ev says:
CSO: You're looking well.

CSO_Rhykmal says:
::raises an eyebrow:: CO: Did I look any different a few hours ago?

CO_Mash`ev says:
CSO: A few hours ago you were being quaranteened in a Cargo Bay.  ::smiles::

CO_Mash`ev says:
TRChief:  Anytime you're ready.

Ens_Everyman says:
<FCO>*CO*: Sir, the Pakled have contacted us, they are asking if they are safe.

CO_Mash`ev says:
*FCO*: Thank you, ensign.

CO_Mash`ev says:
COM: Pakled: CO: We're checking your away team now. We'll let you know in just a few
minutes.

Host Brett says:
<TRChief> ::Manipulates the Transporter and after a few moments the Pakleds appear on the transporter pads.  Several of them collapse.

CO_Mash`ev says:
TRChief: Are they... infected?

Host Brett says:
<TRChief> CO: I don't think so sir.

CSO_Rhykmal says:
::scans the materialized bodies just to be sure::

Host Brett says:
<Pakled> ::Looks around, confused::

CO_Mash`ev says:
CSO: Analysis.

CSO_Rhykmal says:
::tricorder sounding its scanning noise:: CO: These Pakleds no longer have the parasites...
but they have suffered brain damage and must have medical care.

Ens_Everyman says:
<SEC> CSO: Reporting as ordered by TO sir. ::Assumes a defensive position near the
transporter::

CSO_Rhykmal says:
Sec: Take these Pakleds to sickbay... they will need help.

Host Brett says:
<Pakled> All: Hello.  Why are you on my ship?  ::Still looks puzzled::

Ens_Everyman says:
<SEC> CSO: Aye sir> ::Assists a Pakled and takes his arm::

CSO_Rhykmal says:
Pakled: You are in need of assistance... follow this man and he will take you to some doctors
who will... help... help you go...

Host Brett says:
<Pakled> CSO: I am?  Oh, alright.  ::Follows the Security men placidly::

CSO_Rhykmal says:
::nods as the Pakleds depart, then plans to go back to the cargo bay, pauses to wait on the CO::

Host Brett says:
<Pakled> ::Looks back at the CO, now more confused than ever before the doors
close and he is ushered away.

CSO_Rhykmal says:
CO: Sir... should I go back to the cargo bay to further study the specimin?

CO_Mash`ev says:
CSO: Yes, please. I'm going to go to sick bay and let the Pakled... leader see his men are
being looked at.

CO_Mash`ev says:
Sec: You're with me.

CSO_Rhykmal says:
::nods:: CO: Understood sir. ::departs for the cargo bay::

CO_Mash`ev says:
CSO: See if there's a chance we can save the colonists. ::as the lieutenant departs::

Ens_Everyman says:
<SEC> CO: Aye sir. ::Hand the Pakled to another team member::

CSO_Rhykmal says:
::stops:: CO: Regrettably, Commander Llewellyn informs me that we cannot... as you saw with
the Pakleds, the parasites have surely eaten their brains.

CO_Mash`ev says:
CSO: I'm just holding out hope that, by some miracle, we can reverse the damage done.

CSO_Rhykmal says:
CO: Alright... I will... work towards hope.

CSO_Rhykmal says:
CO: But understand... it may be C'thia that we cannot save them.

CO_Mash`ev says:
CSO: I know. I understand that I'm asking for a lot but.. I would hope someone would make the
same effort for me.

CSO_Rhykmal says:
::understanding, a warmth appears behind her eyes:: CO: Understood. ::turns and departs::

CO_Mash`ev says:
:: Motions to the security officer and heads towards Sick Bay. ::

Ens_Everyman says:
<SEC> ::Follows the CO::

CSO_Rhykmal says:
::arrives in the cargo bay and looks at the readings of the parasite::

Ens_Everyman says:
<OPS> ::Monitoring ships systems::

Ens_Everyman says:
<FCO> ::Watches the Pakled freighter on teh screen::

CO_Mash`ev says:
:: Confers with the Pakled leader and lets him see that his crew are being cared for. ::

Host Brett says:
<PakledCO> COM: Delphyne: CO: Thank you.  You are smart.  You take the ship,
we do not want it.  It is dangerous.  We like our ship.

Ens_Everyman says:
<CNS> ::Sitting on the bridge wondering if any amount of counseling will help the Pakled::

CSO_Rhykmal says:
::tries the first attempt at poisoning the parasite with gluten::

CO_Mash`ev says:
COM: Pakled: CO: I thank you for your generosity.

CO_Mash`ev says:
:: back on the bridge ::

CO_Mash`ev says:
TO: Send a report to Star Fleet, recommend towing the ship to a nearby star base so no other
ship will 'find' it. But warn them that there's still a zombie life-form on board.

Ens_Everyman says:
<TO> CO: Aye sir. ::Begins to prepare the report::

Host Brett says:
Action: After a day of treatment, the Pakleds are returned to their ship and they
depart.  The Delphyne tows the infected freighter back to Starbase and then
takes a team of scientists to Corialis where more facts are uncovered.

Host Brett says:
INFO: The colonists uncovered an underground complex which belonged to an
older civilization.  The parasites were apparently dormant within structures
underground, and infected the colony members who found them.  These
parasites likely destroyed the old civilization and might even have been a
bio-weapon.

Host Brett says:
INFO: Corialis is deemed a quarantined planet and the Delphyne places
appropriate marker buoys in orbit before departing on their next assignment.
