@::sitting at her console maintaining a vigilant eye on the power consumption and reserves::
FCO_Lt_Williams says:
@::at the helm of the Vigilant::
CO_Shras says:
CO: Captain Rose, great to see you. You had many people at Starfleet worried
XO_Taal says:
@::enters the bridge::
XO_Taal says:
@ALL: Any word from the Captain.
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@XO: Not since he left sir.
CNS_Bauer says:
@XO: Nothing yet, Sir.
CO_Rose says:
CO: I'm not sure what happened myself.
CEO_Lt_L`Korek says:
@XO: Nothing as of yet.
CO_Gul_Thorak says:
::enters the room with his security entourage::
CO_Cmdr_Grok says:
::follows the Cardassian, thinking about how warm it is::
CO_Shras says:
CO: Well we met some new people who would like to be at this meeting with you and the Breen and the Cardassians
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@XO: How are your eyes Commander?
XO_Taal says:
@CSO: I believe they are doing well. I will require another checkup with the Doctor to be certain
CNS_Bauer says:
@XO: The Command chair is vacant. Why don't you sit?
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@XO: Glad to have you back anyway sir.
CO_Rose says:
ALL: Gentlemen. Welcome.
CEO_Lt_L`Korek says:
::gets up and walks to the CSO:: CSO: Is your console working properly now???  I fixed it earlier.
CO_Cmdr_Grok says:
ALL: I do not see what we have to discuss.
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@::turns to the Klingon:: CEO: Perfectly.  ::smiles::
CO_Gul_Thorak says:
ALL: I agree this is obviously out space! This is a waste of time.
XO_Taal says:
@CNS: I just came for a report. Perhaps you should have a seat, Counselor.
CO_Shras says:
COs: Gentlemen, we have to discuss because there was an unexpected development
XO_Taal says:
@::Exits the bridge and heads for Medical::
CO_Cmdr_Grok says:
CO: What development do you speak of?
CNS_Bauer says:
@SELF: Not enough seats on this bridge.
CNS_Bauer says:
@::Sits in the Command chair::
CO_Shras says:
COs: Does this place around our ships look familiar to you?
CO_Gul_Thorak says:
CO: No, it is a trick by the Breen. Don't even give it a second thought.
CEO_Lt_L`Korek says:
@CSO: Good I am glad it works.
CO_Shras says:
COs: and the Breen will say it is a trick by the Cardassians, and you know what, you'll both be wrong
CO_Cmdr_Grok says:
Gul: Ha! Ridiculous! Cardassians will do anything to get the upper hand.
CO_Rose says:
CO: So Captain, where are we?
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@::playing solitaire by herself in Sickbay as Orik is on the Eridanus meeting someone...::
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@::returns to work::
CEO_Lt_L`Korek says:
@::walks back to her station and sits down and goes back to the power consumption rates::
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
*CMO*: Quinnis to Kimura.
XO_Taal says:
@::enters sickbay and sees Kazue::
CO_Shras says:
COs: You are going to meet those who made this, those who brought you to their place so they could be able to speak with you and tell you about the problems you have brought to them without knowing it.
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
::smiles at Taal and touches her commbadge:: *CSO*: Yes, Quinnis?
CNS_Bauer says:
@ALL: Why don't we try to use this time more constructively.  Let's see if we can make contact with Starfleet or, I dunno. Is this ship fully functional? CEO: Weapons, ok? CSO: Sensors check out? FCO: Communications?
CO_Shras says:
COs: This meeting is about making it right for everyone, including them
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@CNS: Everything checks out sir.
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@*CMO*: Did you happen to bring a sample of the purple goo back with you?
CEO_Lt_L`Korek says:
@CNS: Weapons check out sir.
CO_Gul_Thorak says:
CO: Don't make me laugh.
CNS_Bauer says:
@ALL: I want everything tip top. We don't want anything preventing this ship from getting us home.  Who knows maybe we can get a good trade in on it at Starbase 245?
CO_Shras says:
Gul: Why not? I might like your laughter!
FCO_Lt_Williams says:
@::runs checks on COM:: CNS: Checking now sir.
CNS_Bauer says:
@::Overhears CSO:: CSO: No but, I did.
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@CNS: Oh?  I'd like to analyze it if you don't mind, sir.
CO_Cmdr_Grok says:
CO: He probably laughs like a Goertap. ::laughs at his own joke::
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@*CSO*: There is a sample in Science Lab 1.
FCO_Lt_Williams says:
@::also runs propulsion and sensor diagnostics, just to be thorough::
CNS_Bauer says:
@CSO: I brought it home just for you Quinnis. It should be in a containment field in your lab, I should think.
CO_Gul_Thorak says:
Cmdr: I'll pretend I didn't hear that.
FCO_Lt_Williams says:
@CNS: Communications appear to be operational and within SOP parameters, sir
CEO_Lt_L`Korek says:
@CNS: Power consumption logs are fine and power allotment is ok.
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@*CMO*: Thank you.  CNS: Thank you sir.  Permission to leave the Bridge?
CNS_Bauer says:
@CSO: Share nice with the Doctor. It's her present too. ::Smiles::
CNS_Bauer says:
@CSO: Permission granted.
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@XO: What can I do for you, Taal? ::smiles and starts to put away her cards::
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@::antennae raise slightly:: CNS: Thank you sir.
CNS_Bauer says:
@CEO: Thank you, Lieutenant.
CO_Shras says:
ALL: What I mean to tell you is this. Let's meet with these people and hear what they have to say
XO_Taal says:
@CMO: I am here for you to examine my eyes.
CNS_Bauer says:
@FCO: So why can't we reach anybody?
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@::logs out of console and exits the Bridge::
CO_Rose says:
::opens the door to the corridor::
M`beow says:
::walks into the room with a couple of his colleagues::
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@::enters Turbolift:: TL: Deck 2.
CO_Gul_Thorak says:
::stands up and slams his palms onto the table:: CO: What is the meaning of this?
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@XO: Oh, right! ::stands up and walks to a cabinet to take out an instrument:: Lay down on that biobed please. ::points to the biobed Taal had previously occupied::
CNS_Bauer says:
@FCO: If the stasis situation we were in is no more than what now is preventing contact?
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@::exits TL on Deck 2 and heads for the Lab::
XO_Taal says:
@::lies back onto the biobed::
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@*SO*: Ensign Randall, please report to the Science Lab.
CO_Shras says:
Gul: Just exactly what I've been saying for the last five minutes. Our space and theirs are somewhat connected and our activities, and by "I" I mean the Breen and the Cardassians at that disputed system, has been disrupting their space big time!
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@ <SO> *CSO*: Aye sir.  On my way.
CO_Cmdr_Grok says:
CO: It's just another trick.
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@::pulls down an eyescanner she installed when she was working on his eyes and looks through it:: XO: Follow the light with your eyes only.
CO_Gul_Thorak says:
    CO: Don't be fooled captain. Never trust the Breen.
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@::enters the Lab, notices the container.::
CNS_Bauer says:
@CEO: What do you know about communications Lieutenant?
XO_Taal says:
@::follows the light with his eyes::
CEO_Lt_L`Korek says:
@CNS: What do you wish to know sir?
CO_Rose says:
ALL: Have you checked your sensors recently? We have, and we can't make any sense of it.
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@::reaches underneath table and grabs a second container.  Begins pouring half the goo in the second container.::
CNS_Bauer says:
@CEO: THe reason we can't make contact with anyone outside the area?
CO_Cmdr_Grok says:
::grumbles and shuts up::
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@::adjusts a few variables with the appropriate knobs:: XO: Now read the smallest line you can see. And tell me if you can't see at all or if you feel any pain.
CEO_Lt_L`Korek says:
@CNS: That would be probably due to the goo stopping our com signals.
XO_Taal says:
@CMO: K... R... S... P... D... O... N.
CEO_Lt_L`Korek says:
@CNS: Or there could be a possible dampening field or jamming field.
SO_Ens_Randall says:
@ ::doors open:: CSO: Randall, reporting in sir.
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@::watches the correct readings as he speaks::
XO_Taal says:
@CMO: I am able to read the letters, Kazue, however I still see slight halos.
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@XO: That will go away in a day or so. If it still persists within a week, see me again.
CO_Gul_Thorak says:
CO: The Breen are obviously jamming our sensors somehow.
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@SO: Good.  Begin analyzing this substance while I run this sample to the Doctor.
XO_Taal says:
@CMO: Very well, Kazue.
SO_Ens_Randall says:
@CSO: Aye sir.  ::begins work::
CNS_Bauer says:
@CEO: Well, maybe someone over on the Alien ship knows how we could break through and get a message through. See what you can learn.
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@::Quinnis heads out for Sickbay with the container in hand::
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@::takes away the device:: XO: You're good to go. ::smiles::
XO_Taal says:
@CMO: Thank you.
CEO_Lt_L`Korek says:
@CNS: Understood sir.  ::begins to run scans from earlier and attempts to find a common theory.::
XO_Taal says:
@::sits up and looks around::
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@::enters Sickbay.  Notices the CMO attending XO::
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@XO: Yeah, I know... pretty empty...
XO_Taal says:
@CMO: It could be worse.
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@CSO: Hello, Quinnis. ::smiles at him::
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@CMO: Greetings Doctor.  ::grins back::
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@::notices something in his hand:: CSO: A gift for me, right?
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@CMO: Commander Bauer had brought enough of this goo for both of us to analyze.  I figured you'd rather do your work here then share the cramped Lab with Randall and I.
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@CSO: Good thinking. ::takes the sample from him and pulls out a nanoscope, quickly swiping some of the substance onto the plate::
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@CMO: I'd like to collaborate with you as I'm sure we'll both have different findings.
CO_Gul_Thorak says:
ALL: I mean seriously, it's all smoke and mirrors.
CNS_Bauer says:
@FCO: There your friends Mr. Williams. I should think they'd want to help. ::Smiles, nearly laughing. Remembers - "Steve, Steve, Steve..."::
CEO_Lt_L`Korek says:
@CNS: Sir I have ship to ship communications but out side this dimension there is no way of reaching Starfleet
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@CSO: That's fine... I'm finding... well, a gelatinous substance for sure...
FCO_Lt_Williams says:
@CNS: Are you suggesting I join the CO and dance for them, sir?
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@::chuckles::
CNS_Bauer says:
@CEO: Thanks, Lieutenant.
CO_Gul_Thorak says:
ALL: If it was up to me, we'd be fighting right now instead of this pointless talk.
CO_Shras says:
Gul: You know Gul Thorak, I always thought the Andorians were the biggest paranoiacs in this universe.... until I met a Cardassian
CNS_Bauer says:
@FCO: If it would help clear the COM I'd dance with you.
CO_Gul_Thorak says:
CO: You want to make something of it? Little man?
CO_Rose says:
SELF: Uh oh... this should be interesting...
FCO_Lt_Williams says:
@::smiles at Mr Bauer's comment:: CNS: I think all the crew would join us, sir if it would help...::laughs::
M`beow says:
::tilts his head to the side and looks curiously::
CO_Shras says:
Gul: Well if that is what will make you think straight, I'll be glad to help! ::throws a direct punch to the Gul's face ::
CO_Gul_Thorak says:
::the fist lands across his jaw and he falls backwards::
CNS_Bauer says:
@FCO: I guess I'm a little restless. I'd like to get out of here. I wonder how things are going with the talks?  ::Pictures a massive food fight with the Captain in the middle::
CO_Rose says:
SELF: Saw that one coming... ::chuckles::

ACTION: THE CARDASSIAN'S GUARDS RAISES THEIR WEAPONS TO FIRE ON SHRAS, HOWEVER, AS THEY PULL THE TRIGGER, M'BEOW RAISES A FINGER AND THE GUARDS ARE FROZEN IN THEIR TRACKS.

CNS_Bauer says:
@SELF: Hmmmmm?
CO_Cmdr_Grok says:
::laughs at the Gul, then looks surprised at the events that have transpired::
M`beow says:
Gul: You are not to harm him. He is a friend.
CO_Gul_Thorak says:
::wipes the blood from his mouth::
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@::takes a closer look with the Doctor::
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@CSO: Consisting of... well, like humanoid matrix.
CNS_Bauer says:
@FCO: Between you and me, I wish the Captain had asked me to join him.  Did he go over there alone? 
CO_Shras says:
M'beow: I'll be frank, if he personally wants to fight me I'll ask you to let him, after all I did punch him. But thanks for the help
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@CSO: If you know the term... it seems to be oxygenated.
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@CMO: Humanoid matrix?
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@CMO: Ah.
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@CMO: Try running a bioscan.
M`beow says:
CO: Of course, Captain Shras.
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@CSO: Matrix... the substance that sustains life. The other elements are unknown, but...
CO_Gul_Thorak says:
CO: What did he do to my men?
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@CSO: I am running a bioscan... it's giving me these readings.
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@::glances at the readings::
FCO_Lt_Williams says:
@CNS: I suppose he thought he didn't need a team, to look les threatening perhaps....i dunno.
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@ *SO_Randall*: Ensign, try running any scans that would indicate biomolecular... anything.
FCO_Lt_Williams says:
@CNS: I 'm sure if he requires assistance he will let us know. We can transport over and assist if required.
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@<SO_Randall> *CSO*: Yes sir.
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@::takes her eyes from the machine:: CSO: That's all I can come up with. Although, it is similar to what’s called "fluid space".
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@CMO: Ah yes, I've read of it.
CO_Shras says:
Gul: Don't you think that someone who has the power to bring us here, wherever this is, has the power to do many other powerful things. So maybe you'll see the opportunities here and try to make friend instead of yet another enemy
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@CSO: Or at least from what I understand about the phenomenon... but I'm no physicist… Just a physician.
M`beow says:
Gul: Nothing that cannot be reversed… As we did earlier with all your ships.
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@CMO: What was it...::ponders::...Species 8472, right?
CNS_Bauer says:
@FCO: I don't like it. What if there is trouble. Then there's that Andorian temper....
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@CSO: Some number like that, yes.
CO_Cmdr_Grok says:
Gul: I don't know about you, but I'm not a fool. If this... race wants to be at the bargaining table, that's fine by the Breen.
CO_Rose says:
Cmdr: That's good.
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@CMO: Alright, I'll return to the lab and look up any more information I can get on "Fluid Space."
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@::takes out the sample and puts it in a container to save and gives the CSO back the other stuff:: CSO: Here.
CO_Rose says:
Gul: Gul? What about the Cardassians?
CO_Shras says:
M'Beow: And I'm glad that you have not made anything harmful to any of us, it is appreciated. I apologize for my actions, I usually have more control over myself.
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@::grabs container::
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@CMO: Contact me if you happen to find out anything more.
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@CSO: Will do.
FCO_Lt_Williams says:
@CNS: Sir, He has Capt. Rose and a security detail with him, it should be fine.
M`beow says:
CO: It is ok, sometimes violence is required to get a reaction. While I do not understand this concept completely, I am glad I was able to witness it firsthand.
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@::turns to Taal:: XO: Are you busy?
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@::exits Sickbay and heads for the Lab::
CNS_Bauer says:
@FCO:...I'm resisting contacting him. He might get sore if we interrupt. I guess if he needs anything..... but, what if he can't?
CO_Gul_Thorak says:
CO: We will allow them to join the negotiations.
CO_Rose says:
ALL: Then it's settled... We'll reconvene within the hour.
CO_Cmdr_Grok says:
CO: Agreed. ::exits the conference room::
CNS_Bauer says:
@FCO: I suppose your right. I just think we can't afford to loose anyone else.
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@::takes out her cards again::
CO_Gul_Thorak says:
::grumbles to himself and walks towards the door and remembers about his frozen men, turns to look at M'beow::
M`beow says:
::releases the Cardassians who look disoriented::
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@XO: If you aren't too busy... maybe we can play a couple rounds of Gorn Fish. ::grins and shuffles the cards expertly in her hands::
CO_Gul_Thorak says:
::walks out the door and the guards follow::
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@::enters the lab and gets right to work with Randall::
CEO_Lt_L`Korek says:
@::watching her boards and consumption rates::
XO_Taal says:
@CMO: No, I am free for a while.
CO_Rose says:
CO: Thank you Captain.
CO_Rose says:
CO: I don't think I would have been able to punch the Gul.
CO_Shras says:
Rose: Maybe, but you could have done it more diplomatically than I did....
CNS_Bauer says:
*CSO*: Bauer to Quinnis.
CO_Rose says:
CO: I'm sure I wouldn't have garnered the same results... ::smiles::
CEO_Lt_L`Korek says:
@::missing her own quarters and her pet targ::
CO_Rose says:
ALL: Now we just have to figure out how to get you home.
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@::deals out the cards:: XO: Great!
M`beow says:
ALL: I believe I can help with that...
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@*CNS*: Go ahead sir.
CO_Shras says:
Rose: Let's just ask our friend M'beow
M`beow says:
CO: Captain Shras, where would you like to go?
CNS_Bauer says:
@*CSO*: You'll let me know if you find anything interesting about the jello, huh? I'm pretty curious about it myself.
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@*CNS*: Jello, sir?
XO_Taal says:
@CMO: How do I play?
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@XO: Well, it's a bit more vicious than Go Fish...
CNS_Bauer says:
@*CSO*: The purple gooey stuff?
CO_Shras says:
M'Beow: Captain Rose will host the talks, Our mission here is over so we would like to return to Starbase 245.
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@XO: Pretty much if you get the Empress of Hearts than I steal all of your cards.
CNS_Bauer says:
@*CSO*: You didn't like my gift. Wrong colour?
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@*CNS*: Oh.  But, you said Jello?  Is there another substance I'm unaware of?
M`beow says:
CO: Consider it done, Captain Shras.
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@::really confused:: *CNS*: Color sir?
CO_Rose says:
CO: You should probably get back to your ship.
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@XO: But if I get the Empress of Hearts, then you steal mine. The trick is to not let on that you have the Empress and I have to guess randomly---oh, I shouldn't be playing this with a Vulcan! ::laughs::
CNS_Bauer says:
@*CSO*: No, Ensign. Just a word for a lack of a better one. Since we don't know what it is. Jello is a slimy earth desert made from cow hide...Yuck, huh?
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@*CNS*: You humans and your... deserts.
XO_Taal says:
@::raises an eyebrow, shows the Empress of Hearts:: CMO: Is this the Empress of Hearts?
CNS_Bauer says:
@*CSO*: I wouldn't touch the stuff.
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@::nods:: XO: Now I get to steal your cards.
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@*CNS*: Good to know sir.  Anywho, I'll keep you posted.
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@::grins and takes his stack::
XO_Taal says:
@CMO: I do not understand.
CNS_Bauer says:
@*CSO*: Thanks. Bauer out.
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@XO: Hardly anyone does. That's why they call it Gorn Fish.
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@::returns to work and hears Randall chuckling::
CO_Rose says:
::waits for the Captain to beam back to his ship::
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@SO_Randall: You have something to say?
CO_Rose says:
::smiles and nods a couple of times::
SO_Ens_Randall says:
@::startled:: CSO: Uh, no sir.
 CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@SO_Randall: Back to work.
CNS_Bauer says:
@SELF: Andorians ::Thinks - I should check my files. Find Gary's recipes.  and bake Quinnis an Andorian Tea Cake.  It will confuse the hell out of him::
CO_Rose says:
 CO: You going?
CO_Shras says:
*XO*: Commander Taal, I am ready to return to the ship
CO_Shras says:
CO/M'Beow: Good luck
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@XO: Oh, good! I hope the mediation went well.
XO_Taal says:
@*CO*: Yes, Captain.
XO_Taal says:
@*Bridge*: Beam the Captain back.
M`beow says:
CO: Captain, we thank you...
M`beow says:
CO: All Steves thank you...
FCO_Lt_Williams says:
@*XO*:Aye sir
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@ Self: Jello, the most disgusting thing I've heard yet.
CNS_Bauer says:
@FCO: Oh good. You heard him ...beam the Captain back, please.
FCO_Lt_Williams says:
@::locks on to the CO and beams him to the Bridge of the Vigilant::

@ACTION: THE CAPTAIN IS BEAMED DIRECTLY ONTO THE BRIDGE.

FCO_Lt_Williams says:
@CNS: Beaming Him aboard now sir.
CMO_LtJG_Kimura says:
@XO: So when are we getting off this hunk of phaser cannon?
CNS_Bauer says:
@FCO: Very good, Mr. Williams. Thank you.
CSO_Ens_Quinnis says:
@::returns back to work::
FCO_Lt_Williams says:
@CO: Welcome back,sir. A successful meeting?
CNS_Bauer says:
@::Sees the Captain materialize.:: CO: Yes, Sir, welcome back. How did it go?
CO_Shras says:
@CNS: I'm still wondering if I'll put everything in my report or leave some blank spaces....
FCO_Lt_Williams says:
@::returns to monitoring helm::
CNS_Bauer says:
@CO: Sir?
CO_Shras says:
@CNS: Let's just say that Cardassians really have a very hard head bone and I need to see the doctor....

@ACTION: THE VIGILANT IS THEN ENGULFED IN A BRIGHT LIGHT. AFTER A FEW MOMENTS, THE CREW READJUSTS AND THEY FIND THEMSELVES IN NORMAL SPACE AGAIN WITHIN THE VICINITY OF STARBASE 245...

@ACTION: HOWEVER, ALL IS NOT WELL. THE VIGILANT ARRIVES IN THE MIDDLE OF WHAT APPEARED TO BE A BATTLEGROUND. WRECKED FEDERATION SHIPS AND ORION SYNDICATE VESSELS ARE EVERYWHERE. THE STARBASE IS SEVERELY DAMAGED, AND THERE ARE RELIEF SHIPS IN THE AREA.
