CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
Self: Frack!!!!

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
::tries to wipe up the coffee::

CO_Capt_Kal says:
::looks to see what the monkey does and takes it little paw and smacks it lightly:: Monkey: bad, monkey...bad.

CO_Capt_Kal says:

 XO: You think I'll make it to being 'old'?  ::grabs her arm and starts kissing his way up it::

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
::resumes his seat and looks over the dregs in his cup::

CO_Capt_Kal says:
::moves over to sit at the table with McQueen and calls for a beer...a real one:: CTO: I hate that synthehol.  Here, let me buy you another one. ::motions for the waitress to fill up McQueen's cup::

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
::looks up at the waitress::  Waitress: Just coffee thanks

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
::A blue hand flops on the bed, followed by a tan hand that grabs the other hand, fingers entwining as they slide off the bed::

OPS_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: looks at the nurse strangely:: Church: DNA sampler I haven't even been close to one. Why would you say some thing like that?

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
::smiles at the CO:: CO: My mother sent me several bottles of good ole Bundaberg rum that I keep stashed away

CO_Capt_Kal says:
CTO: ::looks at him steadily:: Then you won't need that Romulan Ale that went missing from one of the crates.

MO_Church says:
:: picks up a metallic looking tool with what appears to have a very sharp curved needle :: OPS: Because this is what you were cut with...nothing else looks like this.  I did my internship studying genetics.  I am positive.

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
CO: Romulan ale is my associates poison, and believe me you don’t wanna know what he`ll have for dinner with it

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
::Heavy breathing along with a few thumps and kisses can be heard::

Nelis says:
XO: Whoa!! Careful there, luv.  A rug burn there isn't fun
 
OPS_Cmdr_Twelk says:
Church: Then I have a feeling someone has taken a sample of my DNA for some reason and without my permission either.

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
::takes the fresh coffee and dumps 3 sugars into it::

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
Nelis: Then we'd best be careful, hmmmm?  ::a low growl and a soft moan are heard::

CO_Capt_Kal says:
CTO: Uh huh....just make certain that anything that went missing from that crate is returned within the next few days...otherwise I'll have to make it official.
 
CO_Capt_Kal says:
::takes a sip of beer and smiles:: CTO: I have missed this.

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
::smiles :: CO: I told him he wouldn’t get away with it

MO_Church says:
:: finishes with the regenerator :: OPS: Good news commander I have sealed the wound and there is no foreign matter or chemicals I can detect.  Bad news is someone had about a thousand of your cells to play with

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
::The door chime sounds, followed by a banging::

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
CO: Some things just can’t be replicated

Nelis says:
XO: Going to answer that? ::gasping::

CO_Capt_Kal says:
::pulls the monkey away from her mug:: Monkey: You're too young for that.

OPS_Cmdr_Twelk says:
Church: I need a copy of that report to take to station security and believe me if I find them first station security won't have to worry about the matter anymore.

Bartender says:
CO: Keep that upright rat off my bar and out of the snacks.  Trying to poison everyone here.  Might as well just bring a Ferengi with a cold in here and let him lick the glasses

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
Nelis: Nope.

Nelis says:
XO: At least send them away, otherwise they'll probably keep at it

CO_Capt_Kal says:
Bartender: He's cleaner than half your patrons.

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
::smiles at the monkey:: CO: Feisty little thing.

MO_Church says:
::hands a padd with the report on it:: OPS: There you go commander, now if you will excuse me I have to tend to some other patients

CO_Capt_Kal says:
::ruefully:: CTO: now I just have to come up with a name for the little bugger.

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
CO: Why not call him jack

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
::glares at him:: Nelis: Oh, if it'll shut you up.  ::stands up and moves to the door:: Outloud: What do you want?  ::with a growl at the end::

OPS_Cmdr_Twelk says:
Church: Thank you for everything. :: takes the PADD and heads for station security::

Bartender says:
CO: Great first I have to put up with the filthy aliens now their pets.  Aint fair I tell you .:: Walks down the bar ::

CO_Capt_Kal says:
::shakes her head:: CTO: I used to date a 'Jack'...::shudders::

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
::Voice on the other side of the door:: Outloud: Are you okay in there?  Is something wrong?

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
::grins evilly:: CO: We could always call him Twelk Jr.

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
::sighs:: Outloud: I'll be much better if you would just go away.  Fast.  ::hears retreating footsteps and turns back to Nelis::

CO_Capt_Kal says:
::indicates the bartender with her chin:: CTO: Sounds like the bartender's a little xenophobic.

Nelis says:
XO: Quite a people person aren't you?

CO_Capt_Kal says:
::chuckles:: CTO; I'll be busy keeping Twelk from eating him.
 
CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
CO: Seems we haven’t finished with the bigots. Excuse me for a second Skipper

OPS_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: enters station security and looks for someone to file a complaint with::

CO_Capt_Kal says:
::holds out a hand to restrain him:: CTO: Let it go, McQueen.

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
::places his hat on the table and walks over to the barman:: CO: No skipper not this time

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
Nelis: At least they're gone.  Now as for you....  ::moves across the room, picks Nelis up and tosses him onto the bed:: Now I'll put you to better use ::Jumps on him and the bed collapses::

Bartender says:
:: grabs a Yridian sitting at the bar :: Yridian : Not enough you got fleas, but you are drooling on my bar.  Beat it.

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
::reaches out and grabs the barman by the throat::
 
Action: The drunken Yridian heads out fast looks like he has dealt with this man before.

CO_Capt_Kal says:
::looks at the little monkey:: Monkey: Well little guy...you are about to get involved with your first bar fight.  Just remember to duck. ::stands up and heads over to where McQueen went::

OPS_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: finishes filing his report and heads out to find the Captain::

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
::Nelis and Sika make their way across the quarters, breaking some more of the furniture in their 'excitement'::
  
Action: A loud click can be heard from under the bar as the CTO grabs the bartender. A distinct metallic sound

CO_Capt_Kal says:
CTO: Don't damage the help, McQueen.

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
Barman: Now that would be a very bad idea friend

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
::smiles at the CO:; CO: Ye Ma`am

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
Barman: Now neighbor your gonna apologize to the lady

Bartender says:
CTO: You had the bad idea.  Less you want your guys as the blue plate special let go of me

Security says:
::a knock on the door:: Outloud: Station security!  Is everything alright?

CO_Capt_Kal says:
::pulls her phaser and points it directly at the bartender's temple:: bartender: Why don't you hand over the weapon...slowly.

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
::tightens his grip on the Barman’s throat:: Barman: Say sorry neighbor

OPS_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: enters the bar just in time to see the CTO holding the Bartender by the throat::

Bartender says:
CTO: Back off

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
::Both Nelis and Sika:: Security: We're fine. GO AWAY! ::followed by a grunt, some soft laughing and another crash::

Bartender says:
CO: I think you are a bit more fond of this boy than that.  This scatter gun will make him look like a debris field

OPS_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: walks over to where the CTO is:: CTO: What happened he give you a bad drink?

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
::grips tightens even more as he grits his teeth:: Barman: I’ve had it up to here with you bigots now apologize neighbor.

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
::Notices the Twelk’s familiar presence:: OPS: Worse he insulted the skipper

CO_Capt_Kal says:
Bartender: And this phaser will make your scalp into a flower pot.  So just hand it over slowly and we'll all calm down.

CO_Capt_Kal says:
CTO: McQueen...drop the man...now.  That's an order.

Bartender says:
CTO: My bar I make the rules

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
::releases his grip::

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
::the noise quits. All is quiet except for a few contented sighs::

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
::lets the barman drop::

Bartender says:
CO: So I die taking out an alien or a sympathizer.  Sounds even.  But you are betting that I have to pull this trigger, you willing to bet his life?

OPS_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CTO: Really :: reaches over and grabs the bartender by the hair:: Shall we drag him out here now?

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
OPS: I say we skin him alive first then toss him into the garbage with the rest of the rash

Nelis says:
XO: That was.....::trails off::

CO_Capt_Kal says:
OPS: Back off, Twelk!  Now.

OPS_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: pulls out his knife:: CTO: I am ready any time you are.

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
::looks at the bartender:: Bartender: Mate these so called aliens put their life on the line so you can sleep at night and rip your customers of with this swill you serve

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
Nelis: 'That was' what?  ::reaches up to touch is face, sees a black eye::
 
Action: The Bartender lets go of the hammers on the shotgun and there is a loud bang followed by the CTO recoiling

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
::lands on the floor and slowly opens his eyes::

CO_Capt_Kal says:
::sees McQueen recoil back and alters her aim to shoot the bartender in the shoulder, fires::

Nelis says:
::laughs softly taking her hand and kissing it:: That was very, very nice.  ::sees one of her antennae starting to turn a purplish blue:: Seems like we've got our usual happening
 
OPS_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: lets go of the Bartender:: CO: Sorry captain I am not in  a good mood to start with

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
Self: Oh damn that’s gonna hurt in the morning

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
::grins:: Nelis: True, but at least we didn't have security blast their way in this time

CO_Capt_Kal says:
OPS: Get McQueen to sickbay.
 
Action: The Bartender screeches in pain.  He seems to be looking for something with his one good arm

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
::tries to sit up::

Nelis says:
XO: I'll grant you that.  So, have you rested up enough or do you need to get some sleep? ::amusement is seen in his eyes::

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
OPS: And who says chivalry is dead. By Odins beard I need a drink

CO_Capt_Kal says:
Bartender: Step away from the bar and put your hands up or I'll shoot off your other arm.

OPS_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CO : Aye Captain :: contacts station sick bay to have them transported there::

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
Nelis: Me? You're the old man here.  ::takes him down to the floor again, more crashing can be heard::

OPS_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CTO: Just as soon as we get that hip fixed up. :: grins::

CO_Capt_Kal says:
*Station Security*: We need security in the Roundhouse Bar, immediately.

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
::grins:: OPS: Then we go carve that bartender into steaks?

OPS_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CTO: Exactly :: Smiles::

Bartender says:
:: turns to look at the CO with a fresh shotgun shell in his teeth :: CO: I bet I can get the shell in here before you get a clear shot at that other arm  :: wedges himself in the corner ::

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
::coughs::

OPS_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: wonder what is taking so long for them to get transported to sick bay::

Action: Station security arrives weapons drawn, two med-techs with a grav litter follow them in

CO_Capt_Kal says:
::aims at his leg:: Bartender: Fine, I'll just shoot off a leg. ::fires again::

OPS_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: motions to the med-techs:: CTO: Looks like medical finely showed up.

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
::looks up at Twelk:: OPS: Why am I always the one that gets shot? 

OPS_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CTO: Just lucky I guess.:: grins::

Action: There is a loud blast.  Fortunately the bar shielded most of the patrons, the Del crew, and the security detail… all of them are knocked on their backs ears ringing from the explosion.  Even the monkey.

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
::Moves up, antennae wiggling::

OPS_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: shakes his head trying to get rid of the whining sound in his ears::

CO_Capt_Kal says:
::motions to security, while trying to get the screeching frightened monkey off of her head where it jumped after the bang:: Sec Guys: Take him to the brig. ::points with her phaser to the bartender::

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
::Nelis and Sika together:: Outloud: Did you feel that?  ::a quick grin by both::
 
Info: An arm still holding a shotgun is lying on the floor.  Through the blackened skin a tattoo can be seen...the Second Rising

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
::rubs his ears::

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
::swears loudly::

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
Nelis: That didn't sound good.  ::moves to the desk and activates the comm.::  *Station OPS*: Commander Llynisika to Station OPS

OPS_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: motions for the med-techs to get moving with the CTO::

Sec guy says:
::looks over where the bartender was:: CO: nothing left to take, ma'am..Except this. ::leans over and picks up the arm::

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
::she overhears Nelis talking with his ship::
 
Action: The med-techs grab up the CTO and head for sickbay, mumblings something about a fine time for a transporter system to fail

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
::Nelis looks at Sika and gives her a short shake of his head::

CO_Capt_Kal says:
::takes the arm from the sec guy and looks at it, sees the tattoo and swears:: Sec guy: Is the Admiral on the station?

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
::pulls a mangled Cuban cigar out of his breast pocket:: Self: this day just keeps getting better

Station OPS says:
*XO*: Yes, Commander?

OPS_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: watches as the med-techs leave and walks over to where the Captain is:: CO: Well I guess he won't insult you any more Captain. :: Grins::

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
*Station OPS*: What was that that just shook the station?

Sec guy says:
CO: Yes ma'am the admiral in on station
 
Station OPS says:
*XO*: I'm sure what you felt was just a minor glitch, Commander.

CO_Capt_Kal says:
::shows Twelk the tattoo:: OPS: he won't...but it looks like there might be others around here who will.  Guess they didn't all die with Palmer.

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
*Station OPS*: Minor glitch my......::cuts off the comm.:: Nelis: Anything from your end?

CO_Capt_Kal says:
Sec guy: Get extra security around the Admiral immediately...and tell him that Palmer's people are still on the station.

OPS_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: sees the Tattoo:: CO: Boy this day isn't going well at all. I was just hunting you down to let you know that someone has stolen some of my DNA for some reason.

CO_Capt_Kal says:
OPS: What is the status of repairs to the ship?
 
Nelis says:
::Walks over to her, wraps his arms around her waist:: XO: One of my men was walking by a bar, seems that there was something of a 'disagreement' going on and someone got hurt and someone died.  My man thinks some of your crewmates were there

OPS_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CO: Last I checked it will be ready in 3 days Captain.

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
::looks at the wound:; Medic: Damn that’s gonna leave a scar; You know the Sheilas love a scar mate
 
Action: A large Klingon in a Starfleet uniform walks into the bar
 
XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
::curses in Andorian:: Nelis: And I bet I know who was there.  ::taps a command:: *OPS*: Commander Llynisika to Commander Twelk

RADM_K`Vas says:
Outloud: Qu'vatlh

CO_Capt_Kal says:
OPS: Get on board and check every station personnel who is working on the ship.  I want everything that they have done double and tripled check.

RADM_K`Vas says:
CO: Captain report, what happened here?

OPS_Cmdr_Twelk says:
*XO*: Cmdr Twelk here Cmdr.

CTO_LtCmdr_McQueen says:
::lays back and closes his eyes::

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
*OPS*: You wouldn't happen to know about any disturbances by any chance?

OPS_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CO: Aye Captain

CO_Capt_Kal says:
::hears K'Vas and turns around, still holding the arm which is still holding the shotgun.  The monkey still sitting on the back of her neck, trying to hide:: Admiral: Good, you saved me a trip to see you, sir.

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
::Nelis stays by her side, one arm still around her waist::

OPS_Cmdr_Twelk says:
*XO*: Only the one we have created in the bar Cmdr nothing other than that.

RADM_K`Vas says:
:: smirks :: CO: I assume you have a better explanation for this than 'happy hour'

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
::sighs and both eyebrows go up:: *OPS*: Please tell me that you and McQueen aren't going to the brig

CO_Capt_Kal says:
::holds out the arm and shows him the tattoo:: Adm: This was the bartender here, sir.

OPS_Cmdr_Twelk says:
*XO* No actually McQueen is on his way to the Station Sickbay at the moment and I am on my way back to the ship. Will explain more when I arrive.

RADM_K`Vas says:
:: takes the arm looks at it then throws it to one of the security men :: SEC: See that piece of Baktag is sent to sickbay for a dna match

OPS_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: heads out the door and towards the ship::

RADM_K`Vas says:
CO: Get your CTO patched up.  I want your senior staff in my office as soon as he is

RADM_K`Vas says:
:: starts to walk out :: CO: Tell him if he thought this was a glorious battle, wait till the briefing

CO_Capt_Kal says:
Adm: Aye sir. ::chuckles:: Looks like the fun is about to begin again.

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
*OPS*: Sickbay??  You had better have a full report for me so I can update the Captain

CO_Capt_Kal says:
*XO*: Recall all personnel back to the ship and report to station sickbay.

RADM_K`Vas says:
:: looking back :: CO: It never ended we only cut one head off this beast

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
::starts to turn around and stops seeing that Nelis is holding her uniform out to her::

OPS_Cmdr_Twelk says:
*XO* Cmdr the Captain know all about it now as she was there also.

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
*CO*: Understood, Captain

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
*OPS*: She was.....::trails off:: Get back to the ship, all personnel are to return to the ship.  I'll be in contact with you shortly, Commander

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
::cuts the comm. and turns to Nelis:: Nelis: Well at least it's never boring when we get together, hmm?  ::they both get dressed and both leave her quarters, Nelis headin for his pirate ship and Sika heading to station sickbay::
 
Action: In 2 days the CTO is ready to return to duty...he will have a nice collection of projectiles to add to his collection.  The ship is well along under repair.  Now what is next remains to be revealed in the briefing.
