::looks at the screen:: OPS: Mia, screen on again please.

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
:: continues scanning the vessels :: FCO: They use a unique power source commander, it will take more time to get the results of the scans

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
Phlux:  Thank you.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
CEO: Acknowledged.

Host Phlux says:
::Turns back to CO:: CO: And the rest of your ships?  Will they join you or remain racing through our universe?

SO_PO_Sirta says:
FCO: They don't look hostile. Just conducting some thorough scans on the other wing ships. I hope nobody decides to shoot at each other out there.

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
FCO: Aye ma'am. ::hits the screen on::

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
Phlux:  Sir, we visited a facility after entering through the rift.  A medical facility.  We were most upset with its contents.  Are you familiar with it?

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
::turns to Kell:: CEO: What do you mean unique?

Host Phlux says:
::Clicks rapidly then slows down:: XO: We know of it.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
::Types message to other tactical officers letting them know the situation and instructions from the FCO.::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
:;looks back at the screen:: CTO: No Lieutenant. We will wait and see what they do.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::looks at Phlux for a few seconds before answering::  Phlux:  If you or your Queen guarantee our safe passage through your space, they will remain here.

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
FCO: It does not match anything in the database, I am cross referencing now

Host Phlux says:
CO: So you merely came to retrieve your President but have time to inspect our facilities?

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
::a nod acknowledging the FCO's comment.::

Host Phlux says:
::moves about the hall in an agitated state::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
Phlux:  Understand that we do not have the President's location.  We had to initiate a wide search, and the facility was within our sensor range.

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
Phlux:  We downloaded and deciphered some of the data.  Your species seems to be looking at a very serious problem in the future.  I am a physician and have been concerned with your dilemma.  As I am with what you say about the V'Rax.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
CEO: Maybe you can find the Vesuvius' records or better yet the Nighthawk's. They both may have something useful.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
::continues to run tactical scans and simulations.::

Host Phlux says:
::Listens to the XO and turns to CO:: CO: I see.. and that included taking data from our facility?  Did you think he was hidden inside? ::The universal translator can barely keep up::

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
FCO: Good thinking commander, but being we missed our point of entry to this universe it may take time to access the other ships databases.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
CEO: You should have the Nighthawk's reports in the database. We got them before entering this space.

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
Phlux:  We are also sent out on scientific explorations and that is one reason we were interested in the data.  The corpses were most upsetting.  We may be able to offer help.  ::pauses a second:: Would you be familiar with a species called the Airilians?

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::shakes head slightly::  Phlux:  We were behind any information that could reveal the President's location.  That includes any kind of data on the computers.  But as Commander Jakiel is saying, we are aware of your condition and perhaps we can help.

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
FCO: I will have the computer compare their latest results with our sensor readings.  It should only take a moment longer  :: typical Cardassian grin::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::is particularly interested on the next answer... Who are the Airilians?::

Host Phlux says:
::Moves toward the hall door:: CO: Enough. I will not be interrogated.  Our "condition" is ours, not for outsiders like you.  Your kind has done enough in this universe.

Host Phlux says:
CO: I wish to return to my ship.

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
:: has the computer compare the energy signatures of the vessels to the findings of the Nighthawk ::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
CEO: Very well. ::smiles:: Do your best.

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
Phlux:  Can you explain what we did to the V'Rax?  We are as in the dark about that as you are of our President's kidnapping?

Host Phlux says:
CO: I will notify those concerned of your passage. Take all your ships with you.  And I mean all... including those elsewhere in our universe.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::looks at the XO and sighs::  Phlux:  It was not our intention to interrogate you.  ::motions to Tessa to stop::

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
::follows and is very disappointed that the Nacandarian has still taken such offense::

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
FCO: Oh I try never to give anything less Commander. :: grins and bows slightly before returning to his scans ::

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
CO:  Yes sir.

Host Phlux says:
::As he move through the hall doors he pauses to look directly at McCann::

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
::realizes that he is acting as a typical patient with a grave medical problem::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
::wonders how Cardassians ever got by without the Federation before::

SO_PO_Sirta says:
::smirks at the seemingly haughty ways of the Cardassian engineer as she studies her scans::

Host Phlux says:
::moves to the turbolift and waits for the CO and XO to catch up::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
Phlux:  Very well.  I will try to reach the other groups and tell them we will meet the Queen, so they will stand in position.  ::enters TL::

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
::enters the turbolift and hopes Phlux will not resume his ship's hostilities::

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
::Thinks to himself:: Himself : It is a wonder the Federation ever achieved warp technology, They are afraid of shadows on moons

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
::leans over to Mia:: OPS: And you like this fellow? ::grins::

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
Phlux:  I apologize for my questions.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::leaves TL and walks to TR 1::

Host Phlux says:
::follows the CO ignoring the XO::

Host Phlux says:
::steps up onto the pad and clicks in annoyance::

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
::giggles and shrugs as if to say:: What can a girl do?

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::watches as Phlux steps onto a pad::  Phlux:  I will be waiting your response, so we can head to your home world.

Host Tim says:
ACTION: PHLUX IS BEAMED BACK ABOARD HIS SHIP

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
FCO: Ma’am the Enemy fleet is moving off.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
CTO: Are you sure?

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::looks at Tessa and sighs::  XO:  Hard, huh?

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
FCO: It’s regrouped and is leaving the area along our route.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
::checks her own display and smiles:: All: I think the Captain succeeded in calming down our "friends".

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
<McCann>::As soon as Phlux is off the ship he leaves the transporter room and heads for the Central Security Officer.::

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
FCO: Yes Ma’am. ::Smiles.:: I just hope we can get our President back.

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
CO:  At least we secured a meeting.

SO_PO_Sirta says:
FCO: His charms are really that good then, eh Commander? ::giggles::

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
:: slightly disappointed that he did not get a chance to try his new idea ::  Himself: Should have tried it on our guest

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
::grins at Sirta:: SO: You bet they are, he got me after all.

Host Tim says:
ACTION: AS SOON AS PHLUX RETURNED TO HIS VESSEL HE SENT THE COORDINATES OF NACANDAR AND WORD THAT THE DUBLIN HAD FREE PASSAGE

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
::Grins, sharing in the lessened tension.::

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
::Thinks to self, "one problem down, many to go..::

SO_PO_Sirta says:
::snorts her amusement at Cassie's words, almost feeling jealous:: Self: If only he were Andorian.... ::shakes her head and goes back to work::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::returns to the bridge::

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
::eyes open wide at the message she just received:: FCO: Ma'am...we have the coordinates and free passage to the Nacandarian world!

Host Phlux says:
