OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
::Sitting at operations, monitoring the communications from her console.::  *XO*:  Ma'am, I just wanted to remind you that communications are only good for 3 km's.  Once you're outside that range, I'm afraid we won't be able to hear you.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
Away Team: Everyone...strap on your respective packs and let's head out.  ::turns to Cerdan::  CO: Captain...with your permission we'll be off.   And we'll keep in contact with runners spaced out.

*OPS*:  Warning duly noted.

CMO_Ens_Danara says:

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
::looks at the Captain seriously and says quietly::  CO:  I promise we will be careful.  You do the same and hopefully we can find a way to get back home.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
*OPS*:  Thank you.  Much appreciated.  Take care of the Captain while I'm gone, okay?  ::smiles at Cerdan::

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
*XO*:  Yes, Ma'am.  Will do.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Starts to remind her of things like a mother hen.:: XO: Now don't try to make to many kilometers in a day, and............::Grins widely.::

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
::walks to the XO and tries one last time:: XO: Ma'am walking it may take us three days to arrive day. Wouldn't be worth losing 3 hours trying the shuttles before leaving and arrive there in 10 minutes?

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
::Begins to look over the reserve power allocations, making note of which departments are pulling resources.::

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
::looks fondly at Quon and nods, regarding how heavily loaded he is::  CNS:  Thank you so much.   The extra supplies will make a big difference.  ::turns back to the Captain, sensing his worry:: CO:  Captain...yes, we'll be very very careful.

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
*FCO*:  Gael, bring me back something good to eat, would you?

CMO_Ens_Danara says:

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
*OPS*: Sure, but you have never been much into roots I remember. CMO: Unfortunately yes, but I think it is a waste of time.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
::nods at the FCO::  *CEO*: Hembrook, will or will not the shuttles work?  I thought someone tried those?

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
*FCO*:  No roots .. just something nice and juicy please.  ::Giggles.::

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
FCO: Ensign, What little power they still have is being saved for another purpose.

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
::Begins to monitor comm. relay frequencies.::

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
::Stops work and activates her combadge, echoing in the suit:: *XO*: The sublight drives on the shuttles are fusion drives, like the ship's. They should work, maybe with a slight power loss. As long as there is no tractor effect, they should work fine. I'd be careful and test them first though sir.

CTO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
::Adjusts backpack.::

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
::blushes:: *OPS*: I will try....::seems embarrassed:: CO: I think they will work just fine sir. But if we have to walk we will.

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
*FCO*:  Gael, you may want to get some scans of the plant life to find out if there's any edible plants.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@*CEO*:  Sorry...was speaking to the Captain.  He has decided feet will conserve energy.

CTO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
@::moves ahead with Gael, looking around intently, keeping a steady but not too fast pace.::

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
::Begins preparations to monitor the away team's tricorder telemetry.::

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
*XO*: Not a problem Sir. The shuttles should work if there's an emergency though. ::crunches numbers in her head quickly:: The range will be limited to about 500 KM total, less if you use any systems that take power, but it should be an option.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@CNS:  A penny for your thoughts?  ::watches curiously the interactions ahead of them::

CTO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
@FCO: Of Course Ensign, this is like security training. ::She quips backward, still keeping an eye out.::

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
*CMO*:  Ensign. Danara, if it's not too much trouble, can you keep an eye on Gael for me?  You know... watch his back?

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
@XO: My thoughts are always yours. Thought I must admit, I feel...old, Tessa. As odd as that may sound.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Steps onto the bridge and sees Cadet Daniels.::

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@*OPS*: You got it Tayla. I'll watch his back...::whispers to herself :: and a few other things.

@FCO: Must admit its been awhile since I've been camping...

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@::hears most of the engineer's words, but then her combadge goes staticky and then silent.  Finds that silence most unnerving::  CNS: Old?  As in physically?  Have you been ailing and you have not mentioned it?

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
*CMO*:  Thanks Ma'am.  I knew I could count on you.

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
::Sees the Captain entering the bridge.::  CO:  Captain!  ::Stands at attention.::

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@*OPS*: I will try to Tayla, but I being the son of an exobiologist I developed an allergy for exotic plants. 

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
OPS: At ease, How we coming with food for this bunch?

@ :: tucks another sample of the grasses into her pack ::

CTO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
::Tactical officer stands, until relieved by CO then returns to station.::

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
::At ease.::  CO:  Sir, I'm afraid replicators are going to cost valuable resource power.  I suggest using them only in emergency.  In other words, unless you like ration bars, we need to find some food.

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
@::shakes his head with a light smile:: XO: I would say...the physical has something to do with it. But... ::ponders how to put it into words:: ...my experiences and memories have given me great pause in this last day.

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
*FCO*:  I'm sure you'll find a way, Gael.  You're a resourceful kind of guy.  You'll figure it out.  ::Grins, and then turns her attention back to the Captain.::

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@CTO: Oh I think it may be fun after all. Reminds me of summer camps in County Kerry. :: keeps on walking at a good pace:: CTO: do we have a march schedule?

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@ :: watches ahead for any signs of activity ::

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
CO:  I am monitoring comm badge frequencies and tricorder telemetry, Sir.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@::lowers her voice and moves closer to Quon as they walk together, Tessa having to take quicker steps::  CNS:  You mean...Thoth's memories?

CTO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
@FCO: Not really. Let me check. XO: Ma'am do we have a marching schedule?

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
@::quietly nods::

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
OPS: Record what you can, Communications will only be stabile for about an hour.

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@*OPS*: If I get poisoned, remember my collection of music belongs to you...::chuckles::

@::looks out ahead at the others on the team, then gazes around the landscape seeking those grazing animals again::

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
CO:  Communications range will cease about 3 kilometers, Sir.

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
*FCO*:  Then don't get poisoned.  ::Grins.::

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@::keeps looking around her, the serene landscape very calming, but still it is an unknown.  Raises her voice to Paige::  CTO: Good question.  You can keep us on schedule too.  I would like to make it there in 3.5 days if we can.  We should all be in shape for that.  Extra time may present extra dangers.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Taps his badge.:: *Bridge to Engineering*:  Status report.

CMO_Ens_Danara says:

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@::repeats her question privately for Quon::  ~~~CNS:  The memories you have from Thoth?  They make you feel...aged?  You said you were writing...how is that going?~~~

CTO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
@XO: Yes Ma'am. FCO: Well then I figure 2 hours between breaks, 2 15 minutes and one lunch for at least 8 hours.

CTO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
@FCO: You betcha. ::she pats her full but not insanely heavy backpack.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@CMO:  All these years on the academy and now you will have to treat blisters  ::smiles:: CTO: Aye Ma'am. 

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@FCO: At least that will be something.

CTO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
@::This to self at last comment, 'yes mom'.mental grin.::

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@All:  Doctor Danara does not need us keeling over from dehydration.  ::looks wryly at everyone::

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
@::lightly chuckles at Delgado's words to the team:: ~~~XO: The book has seen little attention lately, for I seem to be unable to tap into the information Thoth had given me.~~~

CTO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
@::continues to chat with FCO while keeping her senses open.::

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@All: I suggest we begin with finding a water source. We may be here a while.

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
*CO*: We're still working Captain. Even with my people on double shifts it's going to take us almost 3 days to get everything sorted out Sir.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@::turns to look up at Quon and squints, shading her eyes:: ~~~CNS:  No?  That would be such a loss!  When did that happen?~~~

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@CMO: Nonetheless I don't envy your task ahead. These boots are not exactly roses after a 20 km march. ::looks sympathetic::

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
*CO*: If everything goes well I might have this first generator up by suppertime, and you'll start getting some real power. I'm sure OPS will be happier.

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@All: Water usually means life, and that means food.

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
::Hears the comm, thinking she is getting hungry just by hearing the mention of food.::

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
*CEO*: Understood. ::Shakes his head before closing the comm.::

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@FCO: Don't worry about my feet Gael. They've been places you've never even thought of going. :: grins and moves on ::

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
::Continues to decontaminate the reactor core so they can start the repairs::

@::looks perplexed because he was thinking about his feet then keep on marching::

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@::takes out her sketch book and carefully tears out a page.  Looks at Quon, troubled now::  CNS:  Wait...let me give this to Paige.  CTO:  Paige?  I meant to give this to you.  I had scans done of the landscape and tried to sketch them out for us.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::With a mouth full he tries to speak.:: OPS: No.....t baaaaad!

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
::Pulls another one out for herself, opens the wrapper and takes a bite, chuckling at the Captain's response.::  CO:  So .. I guess it's .. just you and me up here huh?

CTO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
@::well glances at it while walking.::

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@CTO: Just like at boy scouts, uhm girl scouts, Commander.  ::smiles::

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
CO:  I believe we can sacrifice power for a scan of the environment.  I wouldn't leave it running too long though, Captain.  Who knows how long we'll be down here.

@FCO: Something like that though I was never neither.::

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
CO:  Captain, comm signal from the Away Team is weakening, but still functional at this point.

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
*CO*: Yes Sir, they will work with a reduced power output. However, I think I can spare one of the backup generators we are using for repairs to give OPS some power to work with. Also, I need to let you know our instruments down here say the EM field on the ground is different from the one in orbit.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
*OPS*:  Thank you.  I'll make sure to space runners to check back in with you.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
CO: If you really need them Sir, right now.

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
@CMO: No...I would say I am as I should be. Is there something you found that gives you this feeling of concern?

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@CNS: Counselor, I believe that you are experiencing something unusual.

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@CTO: No ma'am, I would have waited to bring some samples on the ship and analyze them there, maybe we can do this on our way back.

@FCO: We'll have to stick with what we brought then, too dangerous other wise.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
CEO: What do you think about trying to triangulate the source of this EM field? Perhaps find a weak spot if nothing else.

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:

::Walks over to the Engineering station and transfers power from one generator from Engineering to the EPS grid:: OPS: You have power, Cadet. I hope it's worth it.

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
@XO: Yes we better keep the CMO busy with blisters and nothing else ma'am.

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@CNS: I grow concerned Commander. You must not allow yourself to become ill. At the present time my resources are limited and since you are so averse to my touching your body.....well you can see my point I hope?

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@ ::smiles at Paige::  CTO:  Actually...I think I won't be doing any more experimenting for a bit.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Nods to acknowledge Daniels.;: CEO: Lets do it, I'll get a couple of the shuttles to lets say 50 kilometers and we'll give it a try.

CTO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
@::nods satisfied with XO's answer.: :XO: Unknown planets can have unknown dangers.

CTO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
@::checks location on map with compass.::

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@ :: stares into his red eyes looking for any sign of illness ::

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@::glances back at Quon and 'steadies' the thoughts in her mind::  CTO: That...is very true!  ::looks off towards the mountains::

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
::Nods to the Captain and begins to recalibrate the sensors to look for a weak spot in the EM field.::

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
CO: Like I told the XO Captain, the shuttles will have a range of about 500 KM before you start doing anything that uses power. The more you use, the shorter the range. I'd also plan some cushion, in case of system loss due to the EM field.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Nods to the Chief and hopes his idea shows some results.::

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
OPS: Get a couple pilots into those class nine shuttles and ready for take off.

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
CO:  Aye, Captain.

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
@::holds back a laugh and only allows a grunt:: CMO: It is no illness. Of that I am certain, doctor. ::picks up his pace and tries to move ahead of her::

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
@ :: stands there surprised that Quon just ran away from her :: Self: This is not going to work.

Host Tim says:
ACTION: AS THE AWAY TEAM TREKS ON TO THE WEST ANOTHER LOUD ROAR IS HEARED FROM THEIR RIGHT

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
@::jumps as she was just thinking about the creature, and a shiver runs down her spine::  CTO/FCO:  That was a little bit too much on cue!

CTO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
@AT: I wish I knew what did that...::listens to the roar...::or maybe not. ::she jokes.::

Host Tim says:
