Host Frank_SM says:
<<<<<<<<<<Resume Mission>>>>>>>>>>>
CEO_Vernius says:
::in the turbolift, waiting to arrive on the bridge, resisting the temptation to check on his friend under his tunic::
CEO_Vernius says:
::Wearily:: XO: I think that does it, sir.
XO_Odan says:
::in the TL with the CEO:: CEO: I think we have a good list.
CTO_Lt_L`Koreck says:
::Manning her tactical station and  making sure her department is 100% in shape::
CNS_Chitwa says:
::turns in her chair and looks around at the CO::
CO_Durron says:
::tucks a small case under his chair:: CNS: You will be accompanying me onto the station.
CNS_Chitwa says:
::nods nervously:: CO: Yes sirr.
Host Frank_SM says:
Action: The Europa Crew receives permission to board the station.
CO_Durron says:
::turns to the CTO in a tone that brooks no argument:: CTO: You will accompany the XO and CEO.
CTO_Lt_L`Koreck says:
::Stands and cross chest salutes:: CO: Understood sirl
XO_Odan says:
::the TL comes to a stop:: CEO: After you.
CEO_Vernius says:
::looks at the XO strangely:: XO: I insist, after you, sir.
XO_Odan says:
::passes in front::
CEO_Vernius says:
::follows the XO::
XO_Odan says:
CO: Captain. ::nods:: We have come up with a list. The CEO will give you a copy for revision.
CEO_Vernius says:
::hands the CO a PADD:: CO: Sir, our biggest problem is going to be the fact that the technology is likely to not be interchangeable with ours. We don't even know if it will be on the same level. However, we should be able to get basic supplies, food, water, dueterium and antimatter fuels without much trouble.
CO_Durron says:
::turns to the XO:: XO: Commander, I trust your, and Lieutenant Vernius' judgment.  I would like you to take the CEO and CTO, board the station and attempt to find the supplies we need.  The CNS and myself will also be aboard the station on other business.
XO_Odan says:
CO: We may be able to gather parts and materials similar to ours that are needed to create missing components for sensors and phasers, etc.
XO_Odan says:
CO: Aye, sir. Want us to depart at once?
CTO_Lt_L`Koreck says:
CO: Sir Permission to get my batleth and phaser rifle?
CEO_Vernius says:
CO: Sir, you just said that all senior staff will be leaving the Europa, are you leaving Sarah in full command?
CO_Durron says:
XO: Yes. CTO: Permission denied.  You may take any weaponry concealable on your person, as well as a type two handphaser.
CTO_Lt_L`Koreck says:
CO: Understood sir.
CO_Durron says:
CEO: No, one of the Junior officers will be in command.  XO: All other personel are to remain confined to the ship until further notice.
CTO_Lt_L`Koreck says:
::makes sure her kut'luch and smaller blade is well hidden and the phaser she has is hidden as well not likening the idea of going into a situation un armed::
CEO_Vernius says:
CO: Sir, I highly recommend that either you or the XO stays aboard.
CTO_Lt_L`Koreck says:
CEO: Sir I may be a woman but I am Klingon and will protect the lives of the XO and CO.
CO_Durron says:
::pauses after he answers the CEO's question and thinks about SARAH in command than shakes his head:: CEO: Your recommendation is noted, Lieutenant.  We are at a station after all, what could go wrong?
CEO_Vernius says:
::looks up in slight annoyance:: CTO: I have no doubt of your combat prowess, Lieutenant.
CTO_Lt_L`Koreck says:
::her eyes glare at the CEO in anger::
XO_Odan says:
CO: Maybe let Doctor Hayes on bridge duty, sir?
CO_Durron says:
XO: Assemble your team, and you may notify Doctor Hayes if you like.
CEO_Vernius says:
::winces:: CO: Every time I hear that, sir... ::pauses:: Sir, I realize you are dead set on boarding the station, but perhaps the XO could keep watch here, I'm supremely uncomfortable with this station.
CEO_Vernius says:
::ignores the anger in the CTO's eyes::
CO_Durron says:
::gives the CEO a look that suggest that the conversation is at an end:: CEO: Thank you, Lieutenant.
CEO_Vernius says:
::closes his mouth with a snap:: XO: Whenever you're ready, Commander.
CO_Durron says:
::Turns to the CNS:: CNS: Counselor, are you ready?
XO_Odan says:
*Hayes*: Cmdr, I want you to report to the bridge. You'll be on bridge duty until my team or the CO's return to the ship.
XO_Odan says:
<Hayes>:*XO*: Aye, Cmdr.
CTO_Lt_L`Koreck says:
::says something in Klingon:  CO/XO: Ha'  (lets go)
XO_Odan says:
CO: Hayes is coming on the bridge.
CNS_Chitwa says:
::gulps nervously and nods, standing up:: CO: Yes sirr.
XO_Odan says:
CEO/CTO: If you are ready. Then let's get going to the station.
CO_Durron says:
XO: Very good, Commander.
CEO_Vernius says:
XO: Portside docking port seven, Commander.
CTO_Lt_L`Koreck says:
XO: Ready sir.
XO_Odan says:
CEO: Thank you.
CEO_Vernius says:
::follows the XO::
CO_Durron says:
::pulls a handphaser out of the weapons locker and hands it to the Catian:: CNS: I don't expect you to need to use this, however...
CNS_Chitwa says:
::takes the phaser and tucks it into a hidden pocket on her clothes:: CO: Of courrse sirr.
XO_Odan says:
::picks up a phaser from the locker and hides it:: CTO/CEO: Let's get going then.
XO_Odan says:
::enters the TL and waits::
CEO_Vernius says:
::enters the TL::
CTO_Lt_L`Koreck says:
::moves into the TL::
CO_Durron says:
::waits for the others to enter the Turbolift his own Handphaser very oubvious on his belt, the various other weaponry hidden on his person::
CEO_Vernius says:
::notices that the Captain's phaser is set on level 16 and wonders why::
CTO_Lt_L`Koreck says:
::understands why the captain
CO_Durron says:
::watches the CTO enter the Turobolift with the XO and CEO and nods as it departs, to be replaced a moment later by one with Doctor Hayes aboard it.::
CEO_Vernius says:
TL: Deck 13, portside docking port seven
XO_Odan says:
<Hayes>CO: Captain, reporting for bridge duty. Any special orders?
CNS_Chitwa says:
::takes a breath and squeezes into the TL, grateful she had a light breakfast::
CEO_Vernius says:
XO: Sir, I have concerns about ... nevermind ::resumes watching the decks go by::
CO_Durron says:
::nods to the Doctor and picks up the small case from under the big chair:: Hayes: You have the bridge.  Special orders? Don't blow up the ship, and if you think something might blow up the ship call me.  ::enters the Turbolift the doctor just vacated, than types the destination manually into the computer console.::
XO_Odan says:
CEO: What concerns?
CEO_Vernius says:
XO: Forget it, sir. I forgot my place.
CTO_Lt_L`Koreck says:
::glances at the CEO::
XO_Odan says:
<Hayes>::nods and heads to the Big Chair (tm)::
XO_Odan says:
::As she exits the TL and waits for the two of them::
CO_Durron says:
::smiles at the CNS as the Turbolift speeds off:: CNS: I want you to observe the people on the station, see what type of people they are.  See if they are the type of people we can trust.
CTO_Lt_L`Koreck says:
XO: I think the good CEO was going to say something about that he does not like the idea that I am going.
CEO_Vernius says:
::follows the XO:: XO: Did you withdraw the gold-pressed latinum from the ship's safe, sir? Somehow I don't think this will be like the Federation.
CTO_Lt_L`Koreck says:
::smiles at the CEO::
CNS_Chitwa says:
::nods:: CO: Of courrse sirrr. I can't help but feel a little nerrvous about this.
XO_Odan says:
CEO: Actually, I only have a few currencies that they named. I'm not sure it'll be the exact same thing either. We may need to find a way to trade stuff for their real currency...
XO_Odan says:
CTO: I'm sure the CEO doesn't mind you being with us at all. CEO/CTO: Anyone have questions before we step in the unknown?
CTO_Lt_L`Koreck says:
XO: Only this sir, be wary of your surroundings. Keep your ears open especially.
CEO_Vernius says:
CTO: If I had a problem with you ::emphasis the next word:: Lieutenant. You'd be on the bridge with chopsticks instead of that Phaser. Do I make myself perfectly clear?
CTO_Lt_L`Koreck says:
::growls:: CEO: Yes sir I think I do sir.
CEO_Vernius says:
CTO: Good. ::turns back to the XO, pointedly turning his back on the CTO:: XO: No question's, sir. Let's do this.
CO_Durron says:
::pats the case as he steps off the turbolift, almost running into the XO.  He steps past them and into the portside access way.  On his way past he says.::  CTO: Could you post a guard at the access way here.  No one other than us in or out.
XO_Odan says:
CEO/CTO: Let's get going then! We need to find their promenade or at least equivalent of it.
CTO_Lt_L`Koreck says:
CO: Understood sir.  ::points to one of her most trusted security guards::
CEO_Vernius says:
::nods and leads the way through the docking port::
CTO_Lt_L`Koreck says:
Sec. Lormain: You sat here and guard this with you life understand no one it no one out.
CNS_Chitwa says:
::twitches her ears and looks warily around at the station::
CO_Durron says:
::stops and looks around:: *FCO* Report to portside Docking port seven.  Double time.
CO_Durron says:
::looks at the CTO:: CTO: Except us.
CEO_Vernius says:
::stops and asks for directions from a passerby::
CTO_Lt_L`Koreck says:
<SecLormain> CTO: Understood sir Q'apla
XO_Odan says:
::comes behind the CEO and listens to the passerby::
CTO_Lt_L`Koreck says:
::moves over to the XO and the CEO and listens::
CO_Durron says:
::taps his commbadge again:: *FCO* Lieutenant?
CEO_Vernius says:
::thanks the passerby and fellow's his instructions::
Host Frank_SM says:
Action: The Station the crew just boarded is laid out in a very simple manner.  There are several docking rings set up around a main section.  While the layout is similar to Starfleet, the occupants are not.
CTO_Lt_L`Koreck says:
::being as she is the head of her house she wears her crest around her neck and proudly walks beside the XO and CEO::
CO_Durron says:
::taps his foot adding a sternness to his voice that he hopes will carry over the comm:: *FCO* Lieutenant. Report.
CNS_Chitwa says:
::looks around at all the strange looking aliens and scoots a little closer to the CO::
CEO_Vernius says:
XO: Sir, try not to walk to close to me. Maintain a tactical distance. ::in a low voice::
Host Frank_SM says:
Action: The people milling about the station are of various races, none of which are known to the crew of the Europa, and their demeanor is, at best, suspicious.  Very rugged looking.
CEO_Vernius says:
::notices that the CTO is doing so without being told and nods in approval::
CTO_Lt_L`Koreck says:
::takes a few steps behind the XO and the CEO to her usual tactical position as she has her eyes roving the upper tiers and her ears open::
XO_Odan says:
::moves a few steps back and looks around at the people on the station::
CTO_Lt_L`Koreck says:
::her hand is instinctively on her smaller klingon dagger::
CNS_Chitwa says:
::whines nervously under her breath::
CO_Durron says:
::smiles as the pilot responds:: *FCO* Report to Portside Docking Port Seven, and secure the hatch after us.  Stand guard with Sec Lormain.
XO_Odan says:
::whispers:: CTO: Keep your guards but don't look too threatening... we don't want these people to become enemies at this point.
CO_Durron says:
::nods to the CNS and steps onto the station, he sniffs the air slightly and nods heading with the flow of people towards the middle of the station, making sure the CNS stays close::
CTO_Lt_L`Koreck says:
::nods::
XO_Odan says:
::takes a few notes on what she sees on her padd::
CNS_Chitwa says:
::keeps close to the CO, resisting the temptation to hold his hand::
CEO_Vernius says:
XO: I believe you should conduct the negotiations, sir. They may underestimate you because you're a woman. The Lieutenant and I will back you up
XO_Odan says:
CEO: Maybe we should find a shop of some sort first. Any info from that person you were talking to?
CO_Durron says:
::steps onto the central ring of the station and nods, following his nose and ears towards the most prosperous looking of food vending places.::
CEO_Vernius says:
XO: Just a location for their central merchant area
XO_Odan says:
CEO: Then, we should head there and try to find a shop that offers things we are looking for. From that we can start negotiations and see their currency and ways of selling before we move on to the more special items of our list.
CNS_Chitwa says:
::sniffs the air and knows immediately what the CO is after:: CO: Careful sirr...what's good herre may be poisonous to us.
CTO_Lt_L`Koreck says:
::watching and listening to the sounds around them::
CEO_Vernius says:
XO: Aye aye, sir.
XO_Odan says:
CEO: Where is that central merchant area?
CO_Durron says:
::pats the case:: CNS: I am aware of that. ::starts towards a bar that looks to be prosperous::
CNS_Chitwa says:
::still looking around nervously at all the rough people::
CO_Durron says:
::walks up to the bar and motions to the bartender assuming a slightly disgruntled look, and a tone of voice that brooks no argument:: Bartender: I'd like to speak to your manager.
CEO_Vernius says:
XO: We follow this corridor for another twenty meters, then there should be a turbolift of some kind that will take us there.
XO_Odan says:
::nods and leads the way in the corridor::
CTO_Lt_L`Koreck says:
::follows the CEO and XO::
CEO_Vernius says:
::follows looking apparently relaxed::
CNS_Chitwa says:
::looks over at the bartender and tried her hardest to look mean....but how can a cute ruddy ball of fluff look mean?
CO_Durron says:
::nods again as the Bartender points him towards a humanoid who appears to be directing three things at once:: Bar Owner: Excuse me sir, but I have a business proposition for you.
