XO_Vernius says:
CO: Yes, Sir.
CTO_Wolf says:
:: diverts team to sickbay::
CO_Durron says:
XO: Take Lieutenant Wolf and keep Miss Chitwa company.
CO_Durron says:

CTO_Wolf says:
CO: Aye sir :: nods to TO to take his place::
XO_Vernius says:
CO: Sir, you may want to keep the CTO around just in case something goes wrong out there. ::waves at the Cardassian destroyer on the monitor::
CO_Durron says:
::looks at the XO::
XO_Vernius says:
::motions for the CNS to precede him into the turbolift::
XO_Vernius says:
::whispers:: CO: Simply a suggestion, sir.
CTO_Wolf says:
::waits::
CNS_Chitwa says:
::nods to the XO and heads to the TL::
Host CO_Cardi says:
Action: The Cardassian vessel hails the Europa.
XO_Vernius says:
::starts moving toward the turbolift::
CO_Durron says:
CTO: I'd rather something goes wrong 'out there' than in here.  Accompany Mister Vernius.
CTO_Wolf says:
::follows the XO and CNS:: CO: Aye sir
XO_Vernius says:

CNS_Chitwa says:
::twitches tail slowly::
CO_Durron says:
::turns back to the Viewscreen:: FCO: On screen.
FCO_Kami says:
::Puts the transmission on the main viewscreen.::
XO_Vernius says:
::leads the way to sickbay when the turbolift stops:: CTO: Use your best judgment in there, Lieutenant, but I don't want any fighting if it can be avoided.
CTO_Wolf says:
XO: Aye sir
Host CO_Cardi says:
@Com: Europa: Lahore to Europa....
CO_Durron says:
Com: Lahore: Go ahead Captain.
CNS_Chitwa says:
::follows the XO::
XO_Vernius says:
::enters sickbay and sees the security team:: CTO: Two men in here, the rest in the corridor.
CTO_Wolf says:
XO: Aye sir
CTO_Wolf says:
::nods to Security officers to take there places::
Host CO_Cardi says:
@Com: Europa: CO: Captain I have just been in contact with Cardassia Prime.  I have been granted permission, per the current Treaty, to conduct a joint investigation with the Europa, if you are so inclined to do so that is....
XO_Vernius says:
::settles down to wait for the Cardassian medical officer at a rough position of parade rest::
CNS_Chitwa says:
XO: I hope we can get this mess figurrred out.
XO_Vernius says:
::shortly:: CNS: Indeed
CTO_Wolf says:
::folds arms across chest and surveys the room::
CO_Durron says:
Com: La'hore: I am waiting for word back from starfleet command, however my last orders gave me fairly broad authority, and I'm willing to see how deep this rabit hole goes.
Host CO_Cardi says:
@Com: Europa: CO: Captain, right now I would like to share all data on this virus, and what we have managed to salvage from our outposts sensor logs.  You are aware that this investigation may take us into either Federation or Cardassian Space?
CO_Durron says:
Com: La'hore: CO_Cardi: The thought had crossed my mind.  I do not have permission to escort you into federation space at this time, but I will secure it, hopefuly before it is necessary.
XO_Vernius says:
CTO/CNS: Wonder what's taking so long
CTO_Wolf says:
XO: Who knows with cardassians sir
XO_Vernius says:
CTO: True enough
CNS_Chitwa says:
::shrugs::
CTO_Wolf says:
XO: They tend to like grand entrances
Host CO_Cardi says:
@Com: Europa: CO; Based on waht I have discovered so far, it appears you might want to come into Cardassian Space first, I will have the sensor logs transmitted to you shortly.  Lahore out.
XO_Vernius says:
CTO: Also true, though as far as I'm concerned.... ::chops off that thought::
CO_Durron says:
FCO: Signal the La'hore that we are ready to receive their MO.
CTO_Wolf says:
::runs fingers over the scar running down his face::
FCO_Kami says:
::Send the La'hore a message telling them that the Europa is ready to receive their MO.::
CNS_Chitwa says:
::watches the CTO and thinks that there is a story behind the scar::
XO_Vernius says:
::seems a bit lost in his own thoughts::
CO_Durron says:
::nods, than drafts a detailed report of the Europa's present situation including all the information avaliable.::
CTO_Wolf says:
*CO*: Sir everything is ready here
CO_Durron says:
::attaches a request for the La'hore to enter Federation space with the escort of the Europa, and sends the message off to Starfleet command and Deep Space 102::
CTO_Wolf says:
::shifts uncomfortably ::
XO_Vernius says:
*CO*: Any progress report, sir? I would have expected the MO to be here by now.
Host CO_Cardi says:
Action: The Cardassian Medical Officer is successfully beamed into a quarantine field in Sickbay.
XO_Vernius says:
<delete last>
CTO_Wolf says:
::looks over at the cardassian::
XO_Vernius says:
::see's the Cardassian materialize in sickbay:: CardiMO: Greetings, my name is Commander Vernius, XO of the Europa, welcome aboard.
CNS_Chitwa says:
::stands up and greets the MO as well::
CTO_Wolf says:
::Stands behind the CNS and nods::
FCO_Kami says:
::Sees the sensor readouts of the MO appearing onboard and sighs, thinking, 'Finally.'::
CO_Durron says:
::opens up the local sensor displays on his armrest::
XO_Vernius says:
CardiMO: This is our Counselor, Lieutenant Chitwa, and our Chief Tactical Officer, Lieutenant Wolf. ::gestures to each in turn::
Host Cardi_MO says:
XO: Yes,  can we get underway.  It's rather chilly here.
XO_Vernius says:
Cardi_MO: Lieutenant Chitwa will be your primary liason. Please feel free to contact me if anything is needed.
CO_Durron says:
FCO: What is the status of our shuttlecraft?
CNS_Chitwa says:
Cardi_MO: What temperrraturrre would you prrreferrr?
FCO_Kami says:
CO: One of them is receiving maintenance, but the rest are fit for duty.
XO_Vernius says:
::walks to the CTO and whispers:: CTO: Don't let your guard down. ::walks out of sickbay, toward the bridge::
CTO_Wolf says:
::nods at the XO::
CTO_Wolf says:
::takes position near the CNS::
Host Cardi_MO says:
CNS: I would prefer to be on my own ship....
CNS_Chitwa says:
Cardi_MO: I'm sorrry about that, but we rrreally need yourrr help.
Host Cardi_MO says:
CNS: And unfortunately, my Commander feels that we need yours... tell me about this virus, and let me see what data you have on it.
XO_Vernius says:
::arrives back on the bridge:: CO: The Cardassian MO and Lieutenant Chitwa are starting their analysis, sir.
CO_Durron says:
XO: Good.  FCO: What about the two we had modified?
XO_Vernius says:
::sits back down in his chair and resumes analyzing the data about the Frieghter::
CNS_Chitwa says:
Cardi_MO: All of the data we have in on the console therrre. ::points::
XO_Vernius says:
::Takes care to cross reference the Cardassian data they just recieved to see if there are any discrepancies::
Host Cardi_MO says:
::Walsk over to the console and begins looking over the data on the virus, otherwise remaining silent unless spoken to::
XO_Vernius says:
::Thinks of something:: *CTO*: Go secure and leave sickbay
CTO_Wolf says:
*XO*:Aye sir
CNS_Chitwa says:
::takes a seat and watches the Cardassian::
CTO_Wolf says:
CNS: excuse me for a minute CNS
CNS_Chitwa says:
CTO: Surrre.
FCO_Kami says:
CO: One of the modified ones is the one in maintenance, the other is ship-shape.
CTO_Wolf says:
::walks out of sickbay::
XO_Vernius says:
*CTO*: Make sure the console the Cardassian is using is restricted access, I don't want him to be able to hack into the ship's main computer. Set it up as a stand-alone remote workstation.
CTO_Wolf says:
*XO*: Go ahead sir
CTO_Wolf says:
*XO*:Aye sir i`ll do it now
XO_Vernius says:
*CTO*: XO out.
CTO_Wolf says:
::turns and re-enters sickbay::
XO_Vernius says:
::goes back to his analysis::
CTO_Wolf says:
::walks over to the sickbay computer and begins to isolate the work console the cardassian is using::
CO_Durron says:
::stares at the viewscreen:: FCO: I would like you to run a scan of the most recent data the cardassian's sent looking for any virus type programs.
CTO_Wolf says:
::sends message to the XO`s console confirming that the cardassians console is isolated from the ships main computer::
FCO_Kami says:
CO: Aye, sir. ::Begins to scan the data, watching data flow by on a screen on his console.::
XO_Vernius says:
::notices his console beep and nods approvingly::
CTO_Wolf says:
::returns to position near the CNS::
CO_Durron says:
XO: Every time this Cardassian says that he wants us to co-operate I feel there is something he isn't telling me.
XO_Vernius says:
CO: That's because there IS something he isn't telling us, sir.
Host Cardi_MO says:
CNS: So the method of transmission is airborne?
XO_Vernius says:
CO: Look here, there are some minor discrepencies between the data we recovered an the data the good Captain sent us.
XO_Vernius says:
CO: There could be a lot of reasons for it... but still let's not turn our back to him, if you know what I mean, sir.
CNS_Chitwa says:
Cardi_MO: As farrr as we can tell, yes.
CTO_Wolf says:
::watches the cardassian closely::
CO_Durron says:
XO: What did they change?
CO_Durron says:
FCO: Give me an estamate of communications travel time from here to starfleet command?
Host Cardi_MO says:
CNS: I have to admire it's design...
CNS_Chitwa says:
Cardi_MO: Do you know of any faction that has to technology orrr motivation to crrreate a virrrus like this?
Host Cardi_MO says:
CNS: I think the Federation is quite capable and quite motivated.
CNS_Chitwa says:
::blinks and looks at the CTO::
CTO_Wolf says:
::grunts at the Cardassian MO::
XO_Vernius says:
CO: It's almost certainly things they believe should be classified, but that doesn't necessarily help us. There are a lof of random things, some of which may be because they didn't get the latest data dump from the outpost. It's not a smoking gun, but it's enough to make me wary.
FCO_Kami says:
CO: It would take about five hours to get a response, sir.
Host Cardi_MO says:
