Klord
 Prologue: Hayden is headed somewhere, that a way.  As the tableau unfolds we see the CTO gazing down at the unconscious CSO.
    
Klord
 <<<Resume Mission>>>>
   
CSO Lys
 ::unconscious::

CTO Kostandinos
 ::in the main computer core room:: Goon1:  Looks like the anesthesine did it's job.

EO Davidson
 ::sitting at the engineering station on the bridge::
  
SO La'tan
 ::studying star charts::
     
CO Cutter
 ::on the bridge::

CNS Cutter
 ::shoots evil looks at the helm::

CTO Kostandinos
 ::goes over to the main computer core and attempts to reroute the computer control back to the terminals it belongs to::
   
XO Skye
 ::Sitting in the XO's chair trying to tune into what's going on.:: CO: I believe the CTO found the CSO.

OPS Coreena
 ::Searching for Talan::

CTO Kostandinos
 ::suddenly the eyes go wide::

EO Davidson
 CNS: Need a hand Counselor?

CTO Kostandinos
 {{Go away! Not you again!}}
 
CO Cutter
 XO:  Great, did she kill him?  Scratch that.  Can we get a report?

EO Davidson
 ::smiles nicely::

CTO Kostandinos
 Self: Shut up fool! I wouldn't waste more time on you than I had to.
   
XO Skye
 *CTO*: Report!

CTO Kostandinos
 ::suddenly she slumps over::
  
SO La'tan
 *CO*: Do we have any information on Lieutenant Commander Talan's situation?

CNS Cutter
 ::scowls at the EO::  EO: You think YOU can figure out where this stupid ship is taking us?  If so I'm sure the Captain would LOVE for you to take over.

CTO Kostandinos
 <Goon1>::hearing the comm go off:: *XO*: Ma'am, she started talking to herself for a second and then passed out.

CNS Cutter
 ::narrows her eyes and pictures bad bad things::

CTO Kostandinos
 <Goon1>*XO*: Mr. Talan is still unconscious as well.
   
CSO Lys
 ::still unconscious::
  
SO La'tan
 ::taps commbage:: *CO*: Do you guys need help.
   
XO Skye
 *Goon1*: Started talking to herself how?
 
CO Cutter
 *SO*:  Not yet.  Until he can retake his station, report to the bridge.

EO Davidson
 CNS: I am not going to take over.  Just wondered if you could use some help in trying to figure out where we are going?
  
SO La'tan
 ::getting out of Astrometrics::

CTO Kostandinos
 <Goon1>*XO*: She called herself a fool, ma'am.
   
XO Skye
 ::Turns to Jason:: CO: What should we do?  Do you want them contained or can we beam them to sickbay for emergency medical treatment?

CNS Cutter
 ::jumps out of the chair and offers him the chair with a flourish:: EO: Don't let me stop you.
   
XO Skye
 CO: Because it sounds like the entity is on the move again, unfortunately.
  
SO La'tan
 ::going to turbolift:: TL: Computer, deck one.

CTO Kostandinos
 ::lifts her head shakily:: Goon1: Wait.  No, I'm okay.
 
CO Cutter
 ::sighs::  XO:  Beam them to sickbay
  
SO La'tan
 ::turbolift arrives at the bridge::
 
CO Cutter
 CNS:  Keely, quit being a brat.
   
XO Skye
 ::Nods at the replacement OPS officer to beam them to SB::

OPS Coreena
 ::Arrives at deck 11, and hurries off the TL::
  
SO La'tan
 ::walking out of turbolift:: CO: Reporting for duty sir.

EO Davidson
 ::goes over to the helm and slides under the console taking off an access panel::
   
SO La'tan
 CO: What would you want me to do sir.

CO Cutter
 SO:  Welcome aboard Mr. La'tan.  More introductions will have to wait.  Take the science station.

CNS Cutter
 ::stiffens:: CO: Right.  Sorry, sir.
  
SO La'tan
 ::takes the science station:: CO: Yes sir.

OPS Coreena
 ::Enters the Main Computer room and looks around.::

CNS Cutter
 ::pastes a sickly sweet smile on her face::
   
CSO Lys
 ::when Coreena approaches Talan stirs::
 
CO Cutter
 ::walks over and puts his hand on Keely's shoulder::  CNS:  Keely, I was teasing.   Only one of us can be grumpy at once and it's my turn.
  
SO La'tan
 ::reviewing information on the entity::

OPS Coreena
 ::Seeing Talan, moves to his side and looks at him a bit leery::  CSO:  Talan?

EO Davidson
 CNS: Could you hand me that isolinear chip reader in my kit?
    
Klord
 Action: the CTO and CSO materialize in SB

CO Cutter
 SO:  Mr. La'tan, what we really need is a way to track this entity on sensors.  So far no luck.

CNS Cutter
 CO: Ah.  Well that’s different then, isn't it? ::smiles apologetically::
  
SO La'tan
 ::scanning the CSO for information on the entity::

OPS Coreena
 ::Blinks as Talan is beamed from her sight.::
   
XO Skye
 CO: Orders?  Do you want me to talk to them once they are conscious, seal off the area in case of contamination?
 
CO Cutter
 ::winks at his wife and moves back to his chair::

CNS Cutter
 ::looks blankly at the EO:: EO: Your what?

SO La'tan
 ::trying to modulate the sensors::
 
CO Cutter
 XO:  How do you suggest we seal the area off and what area should we seal off?

CTO Kostandinos
 ::materializes in SB, looks around suddenly:: *XO*: Someone needs to go back to the computer core and finish breaking Talan's lock on the control panels.  I started to but didn't have time before I collapsed.

OPS Coreena
 *Sickbay*:  Is Lys there?
   
CSO Lys
 ::materializes in sickbay, his eyes open.  He speaks softly:: Aloud: Coreena…

EO Davidson
 CNS: The isolinear chip reader in my kit there.  It’s the third tool from the left.
   
XO Skye
 CO: I'm not even sure anymore, but if we can contain that entity, we need to try, sir.
  
SO La'tan
 ::noticing unusual sig:: CO: I have an unusual reading, sir.
   
XO Skye
 *CTO*: Understood. We'll see what we can do.

CNS Cutter
 ::so tempted to tell him to get it himself but since it wasn't her turn to be cranky she goes and gets it::
 
CO Cutter
 XO:  I agree, but if we don't know where the thing is  ::shrugs::

CTO Kostandinos
 *XO*: And now they've got me here in sickbay, and I don't need to be here. I can be more useful without a tricorder stuck in my face.

CNS Cutter
 EO: Here you go. ::hands it to him::

OPS Coreena
 ::Nods in relief as they tell her he is::
 
CO Cutter
 ::moves over to the science console::  SO:  Let's take a look.
  
SO La'tan
 CO: We could try using sound frequencies sir.
    
Klord
 Action: As the CO nears the terminal he feels an unusual tingling.

CTO Kostandinos
 ::getting really annoyed about always starting one thing, and then suddenly waking up somewhere else::

EO Davidson
 CNS: Thanks. ::takes his tricorder and scans and isolinear chip bank in the helm::
   
CSO Lys
 ::slowly sits up, his head pounding::

OPS Coreena
 ::looks around the room, wondering what they were trying to do and why Talan and the CTO were lying on the floor.::
   
CSO Lys
 CTO: What hit me?

CNS Cutter
 ::heads back to her chair and settles back into it, completely at loose ends::
 
CO Cutter
 XO:  You have the bridge.  I'll be inspecting the central computer core.

CTO Kostandinos
 CSO: The entity that we thought only infected girls....

CSO Lys
 ::sighs:: CTO: …used me to prove otherwise?
 
CO Cutter
 ::moves to the TL::

OPS Coreena
 ::moves to the console, noticing that various systems have been shut down.::

CNS Cutter
 ::he'll be what???:::
  
SO La'tan
 CO: Sir the reading is gone.

XO Skye
 CO: Aye, sir.  ::Crosses her arms:: Something doesn't feel right.

CNS Cutter
 XO: He's going to do what??  Why is he doing that?
  
SO La'tan
 ::trying to remodulate the phase variance of the sensors::
   
XO Skye
 *CTO*: Meet the CO at the computer core and keep an eye on him.  Something doesn't feel right.

CNS Cutter
 ::frowns:: *CO*: Um.  Honey?  Is there anything you need help with?  Company maybe?

OPS Coreena
 *XO*:  Ma'am, did you want the computers down?
 
CO Cutter
 ::moves off the TL and to the computer core.  Quickly raises the shields back up that Talan had built.::
  
SO La'tan
 ::by linking them up with tachyons::
   
XO Skye
 CNS: I'm not sure, Keely, but we'll figure it out as soon as possible.

EO Davidson
 ::takes out one chip moves it into another place and takes the other one and puts to where the other one he took out was::

CTO Kostandinos
 *XO*: Aye.  I'm bringing the CSO with me.
   
XO Skye
 *OPS*: No, Coreena.  We need the ship stopped if possible. Can you do that?
   
CSO Lys
 ::hears the comm from the XO:: CTO: I'm coming with you.  ::stands, grabs a tricorder and is ready to go::

CTO Kostandinos
 CSO: We're going back to the main computer core.

CTO Kostandinos
 ::runs for the TL::

OPS Coreena
 *XO*:  Stopped?  I believe so.  If that is what you want.

CNS Cutter
 XO: Ah, I'm getting a nebula on LRS.
   
CSO Lys
 CTO: Is that where I was?  What was I doing there?  ::runs after the CTO::
  
SO La'tan
 ::starting scans on the nebula::
   
XO Skye
 *OPS*: Please.  We also need control back of the computers.

CNS Cutter
 ::Frowning 'cos he wasn't responding:: *CO*: Jase?
 
CO Cutter
 ::begins laughing and keying in helm instructions to the computer::
   
XO Skye
 SO:  Make up of the nebula?

CTO Kostandinos
 CSO: The entity was using you to take over the main computer.  Now they think it's got Captain Cutter.

OPS Coreena
 ::Moves to the computer and looks it over at a deeper level, at its energy lines.::

CTO Kostandinos
 ::as they enter the TL:: TL: Main Computer CSO: And somehow, we have to stop it.
     
CSO Lys
 CTO: This just keeps getting better and better.

SO La'tan
 XO: Its made of up trilithium and trexcl particles.

CNS Cutter
 XO: I think we might have a problem.  Jason, I mean, the Captain is not responding.
   
XO Skye
 CNS: Oh, isn't this lovely.
   
XO Skye
 *OPS*: Is the Captain down there with you trying to get into the computer?

EO Davidson
 ::crawls out and sits down at the helm:: XO: Still no luck getting computer control back.
 
CO Cutter
 ::turns to Coreena::  OPS:  What are you doing down here?
   
XO Skye
 SO: Implications?

OPS Coreena
 ::Looks over at the captain::  CO:  Sir, Commander Skye wants the ship to stop.  You do not?
  
SO La'tan
 CO: Ionic particles were on my terminal.
   
CSO Lys
 CTO: Well, with it active in the Captain, maybe I can get some useful information.
   
XO Skye
 EO: None yet.  OPS is working on it.

OPS Coreena
 CO:  I was here when you came in.

CNS Cutter
 XO: And he's the only one with computer clearance still isn't he? ::doesn't want to hear the answer::

OPS Coreena
 *XO*: Yes ma'am.  He is laughing.
  
SO La'tan
 CO: I think the being is ion based.

CTO Kostandinos
 ::as the TL lets them off on the deck with the main computer:: CSO: What do you mean?
 
CO Cutter
 OPS:  Oh, no, I don't want the ship to stop.  Please go tell the XO we need to keep going.
   
XO Skye
 *OPS*: If you can lock the CO out of the computer, do it.
  
SO La'tan
 XO: The being is ion based, I think.
   
CSO Lys
 CTO: When the entity is dormant, our scanners can't see it.  I'm hoping that is different when it's active.
   
XO Skye
 All: I'm taking command of this vessel as of now until we can get the entity out of the Captain.
 
CO Cutter
 ::finishes keying in the commands to turn the ship toward the nebula::

OPS Coreena
 ::Looks at the captain and with the XO orders is very concerned.::
   
XO Skye
 CNS: Take us to yellow alert.

OPS Coreena
 *XO*:  But, he is the captain.
   
CSO Lys
 ::opens the tricorder and starts scanning::

CTO Kostandinos
 CSO: Well let's all hope so. ::gets to the doors of the main computer and keys them open:: CSO: But we'll soon find out

CNS Cutter
 ::nods and initiates yellow alert::
   
XO Skye
 *OPS*: I know, Coreena.  Is he acting as you know the Captain to act?

CTO Kostandinos
 ::sees Cutter at the computer controls:: CO: Sir, what's going on?

CNS Cutter
 XO: Done.
   
XO Skye
 CNS: Thank you.

OPS Coreena
 *XO*:  He was laughing.  Okay.  ::Returns to the computer.::
 
CO Cutter
 ::keys in computer commands to shut down in ship communications::

CNS Cutter
 XO: It looks like we're now heading into the nebula, sir.

EO Davidson
 XO: This thing is locked up tighter than Fort Knox, Commander.  I doubt even the best engineer or computer wiz could get it back. ::looks at their heading:: Commander, our heading has changed.
  
SO La'tan
 ::trying to set the sensors to look for ion particles::
   
XO Skye
 SO: I want shields at full in case that nebula has some visitors waiting for us.
   
XO Skye
 CNS: Understood.
  
SO La'tan
 XO: I think we should set the sensors to look for ion particles, sir.

OPS Coreena
 ::Bypassing the normal commands, enters a subroutine to lock out the captain::
   
XO Skye
 EO: I understand that.

XO Skye
 SO: If you think it'll help, and inform me of any anomalies in the nebula.

CTO Kostandinos
 ::goes right up to him since he didn't answer the first time:: CO: Sir, what's going on?

CTO Kostandinos
 ::looks at Talan::

EO Davidson
 XO: Commander, if we are locked out of every system then sheilds will not operate at all. Were sitting ducks so to speak.
   
CSO Lys
 ::checks the scans of the CO::  Self: Electromagnetic elevation, adrenaline typical so far.

CNS Cutter
 ::starting to get angry.  It was bad enough that the entity had taken her body, the CTO, the CMO and the CSO, but now it had Jason?  It was time to kick some entity butt::
  
SO La'tan
 ::setting sensors to look for ion particles in nebula::
 
CO Cutter
 ::glances at OPS, then keys in a counter sequence::
   
XO Skye
 EO: Very true, Lieutenant.  We'll just have to hope Coreena can get him locked out and give us control of the computer back.
   
CSO Lys
 CTO: We need to get in there.

OPS Coreena
 ::Watching the sequence, keys a counter sequence and puts in another.  It has become a game.::
  
SO La'tan
 ::setting phase [discriminators]::
    
Klord
 Action: Ops receives a mild shock from the console.

OPS Coreena
 ::Glances down with a frown and shakes her head::  CO:  That was not very nice.
 
CO Cutter
 OPS:  I'm not always a very nice person.
  
SO La'tan
 ::scans OPS consoles::

CTO Kostandinos
 CSO: Allow me. ::raises her phaser rifle and removes the panel guarding the forcefield generators::

OPS Coreena
 CO:  You yell a lot.
   
CSO Lys
 ::smiles:: CTO: The direct approach, not bad.
 
CO Cutter
  ::nods:: OPS: I can live with that.

CTO Kostandinos
 ::fires narrow beam, high intensity right at the generators, frying them::

EO Davidson
 XO: We might get control back, Commander. But if the CO is possessed then were all at his mercy. Let's just hope that thing doesn't figure out the self-destruct.

OPS Coreena
 ::Inputs various commands to shut down the entire system, with an encoded reboot to begin after 1 minute.::
  
SO La'tan
 XO: I think the creature might transfer through ionic shocks.
    
Klord
 Action: The energy bolt from the phaser ricochets off the forcefield protecting the panel.
   
XO Skye
 ::Pacing the bridge like a caged animal.:: EO: I want internal comms back.  I don't care what you have to do to get it for me, but I want it yesterday.
   
CSO Lys
 ::starts programming the tricorder to emit a EM field::

CTO Kostandinos
 CSO: GET DOWN!!
   
CSO Lys
 ::ducks::

CTO Kostandinos
 ::drops::
   
CSO Lys
 CTO: Okay, maybe that wasn't as good as I thought.

CNS Cutter
 ::annoyed:: EO: Next you are going to suggest shooting him too, aren't you?  ::[sharply]::
 
CO Cutter
 ::Inputs a new control string, bypassing the OPS input, instead shutting down all toilet facilities onboard::

CTO Kostandinos
 CSO: It worked last time!

OPS Coreena
 ::Shaking her head, goes over to one of the panels and pulls it off.  Then reaching in, begins to remove various isolinear chips to key areas.::

CTO Kostandinos
 CSO: So now what, it knows everything we know.

CO Cutter
 ::grabs Coreena's arm::  OPS:  I can't allow that.   Move away.
   
XO Skye
 CNS: We protect our own. I'm sure we'll be able to clear him on the entity without hurting him.
   
CSO Lys
 CTO: There is a service crawl-way, two junctions back, that might take us right in.

EO Davidson
 ::nods:: CNS: If it comes to that, Commander, yes. The ship is at risk, and I am sure the Captain would not hesitate either.

CTO Kostandinos
 CSO: Then what are we waiting for? :: breaks into a run::

OPS Coreena
 ::Toss the handful of chips away::
   
XO Skye
 EO: If you heard my order, I suggest you snap to it now, Mr. Davidson

CSO Lys
 ::follows the CTO and finds the crawlway::

EO Davidson
 XO: Aye Ma'am.
  
SO La'tan
 XO: I recommend we turn power of to the bridge, sir.

OPS Coreena
 ::Then moves out of the Captain’s reach and goes to another console and proceeds to remove key chips from it.::

CTO Kostandinos
 ::crawls in and follows it, hoping the CO/Entity didn't think of this::
  
SO La'tan
 XO: I believe the creature travels through electrical pulses.

CNS Cutter
 ::grinds her teeth and does her best not to kill the EO outright::
  
SO La'tan
 XO: I keep on getting ionic surges on the sensor readings sir.
   
XO Skye
 ::Hopes there's not a brawl on the bridge.  That wouldn't be good.  Looks between the CNS and EO:: SO: And you believe that why?  It's traveled from person to person without detection.
 
CO Cutter
 ::pulls his phaser, set to stun, and fires at Coreena::
  
SO La'tan
 XO: I have been picking up ionic pulses.

OPS Coreena
 ::Sensing the energy release, shifts to the side::
   
CSO Lys
 ::follows behind the CTO, the crawl space seeming smaller than last time he was here::

EO Davidson
 ::goes over to the EPS Relay on the bridge and opens the panel::
   
XO Skye
 SO: Since we entered the nebula or before?

OPS Coreena
 ::Turns and looks at the Captain in shock::

CTO Kostandinos
 ::calls back:: CSO: Still with me?
  
SO La'tan
 XO: Before we entered the nebula.
 
CO Cutter
 ::moves over to the panel and uses the phaser to weld it shut::
   
CSO Lys
 CTO: Right here.  And I think I have an idea.

OPS Coreena
 ::looks around the room, uncertain what next to do.::
   
XO Skye
 SO: Well see if you can use that to our advantage, but we can't shut down power to the bridge even if we wanted to.  We don't have control over the computer.

CTO Kostandinos
 CSO: I'm all ears. ::suddenly feels a small shock:: DAMN!  CSO: Another forcefield!
  
SO La'tan
 XO: We can cut power to the bridge manually, sir.
 
CO Cutter
 ::welds the other panel, the annoying OPS opened, shut::

EO Davidson
 XO: Commander, I could possibly take this EPS relay off-line?

CNS Cutter
 ::breathes deeply through her nose trying to contain her fury:: EO: How about this.  You even think about doing ANYTHING to my husband?  I will stop you.  Then I will hurt you.
   
CSO Lys
 CTO: The entity creates electromagnetic impressions in the brains of those that it uses.  I may be able to generate an EM field with the tricorder that can contain it.

CNS Cutter
 ::walks back to her chair and sits down carefully, attempting to regain control of her emotions::
   
XO Skye
 EO: What job did I give you, Lieutenant?

OPS Coreena
 ::Moves to the other side of the computer while he wields one of the panel shuts and activates a level one diagnostic program.::
   
XO Skye
 SO: I don't believe that shutting off power to the bridge will help.
  
SO La'tan
 XO: It might stop the creature from moving.

EO Davidson
 XO: Just giving my input. ::goes back to work, realigning the comm relays on the bridge::

CTO Kostandinos
 CSO: You mean like a reverse of the electromagnetic field it creates for itself?  That's good.  If we can actually get to it.  ::pokes the forcefeild with her finger and gets a smaller shock in return::
   
XO Skye
 SO: I'm sorry.  I don't believe it'll help.
   
CSO Lys
 CTO: Should have known.  If I knew about this passage then so does the entity now.
  
SO La'tan
 *CSO*: Do you have any idea on how to stop the entity?
 
CO Cutter
 {{Don't do this!  Release my ship!}}

CTO Kostandinos
 CSO: Well who hasn't the entity infected yet?  We should get their inputs.  They might know something we don't
    
Klord
 <Computer> ::burps::
   
CSO Lys
 CTO: We need to think outside the box.  Something we would never do.
 
CO Cutter
 {{Like I would listen to you any more than the rest of them}}
  
SO La'tan
 *CSO*: Do you think turning power off to the bridge might work?

EO Davidson
 ::applies a narrow band filter and attaches a tricorder to the relays::
 
CO Cutter
 ::keys in a sequence to lower the shields briefly, transport the OPS out, then raise the shields::

CNS Cutter
 XO: Entering the nebula now.
   
CSO Lys
 CTO: The EPS system!  I can modulate the EM field through the EPS conduits.
  
SO La'tan
 *CSO*: I think the creature moves through the consoles.

CTO Kostandinos
 CSO: Well, it's gotten the Gun Girl, the non-violent science wiz and the two doctors.
 
CO Cutter
 ::keys in the command to drop out of warp::

CTO Kostandinos
 CSO: Can you manipulate them from here?
   
XO Skye
 ::Turns abruptly to the SO:: SO: If I give you an order NOT to do something, you don't go asking others if it is okay.  Is that understood?
    
Klord
 Action: Coreena materializes in a shower in deck 4.
  
SO La'tan
 XO: Yes sir.
   
CSO Lys
 ::opens a panel:: CTO: We are going to find out.  ::starts working::

OPS Coreena
 ::Blinks as she feels the tingle of the sonic shower activating::
   
CSO Lys
 CTO: Um, you might want to move back.  This is a live conduit.

CTO Kostandinos
 ::hands him a tricorder and some wires:: CSO: The entity never protected against creating our own "computer terminals."  Hook yourself up.

OPS Coreena
 ::Steps from the shower into someone’s room and looks around.::
  
SO La'tan
 XO: Maybe we can use an electromagnetic field to stop the creature.
   
XO Skye
 SO: You figure out how we can do that, and I'm all ears.
   
CSO Lys
 ::carefully interfaces the tricorder with the conduit::
  
SO La'tan
 EO: Could we use the EPS conduits on the bridge?
    
Klord
 Action: The Hayden is suddenly engulfed in a massive ionic disturbance.

OPS Coreena
 ::Seeing the room is unoccupied, quietly leaves::
   
CSO Lys
 CTO: Okay, here we go.  ::activates the EM field::

CTO Kostandinos
 ::crosses her fingers::
  
SO La'tan
 XO: We can use the ship’s sensors.
  
SO La'tan
 XO: The sensors do use electromagnetic fields.
 
CO Cutter
 ::begins to twitch slightly::
   
XO Skye
 SO: But how will that contain him?  And how can you manage to do that without computer control?

OPS Coreena
 ::Shudders as the ship’s energy is disrupted somehow.::
  
SO La'tan
 XO: It will stop him from transferring to other people.

EO Davidson
 XO: Commander, I have tried ::hangs on:: everything I know and a few tricks that are not in the Starfleet manual.  I can't get the comm system back on-line.
  
SO La'tan
 EO: Have you thought of jury-rigging your own comm system.

CNS Cutter
 ::keeps messing with the helm on the off chance she can get something back::
  
SO La'tan
 EO: The engineering officer on a freighter that I was on did that once.
   
XO Skye
 SO: I understand that, Ensign.  But how will you be able to contain him? And you can't get to the computer.
 
CO Cutter
 ::releases the shields to go meet his friends::

CSO Lys
 ::pauses for a moment::

OPS Coreena
 ::Frustrated, makes her way to the bridge as she discovers she can not contact anyone.::

EO Davidson
 ::pauses for a moment::
   
CSO Lys
 ::starts heading out of the crawl way::
 
CO Cutter
 ::heads out of the computer core and towards the bridge::
  
SO La'tan
 XO: We could try to control the field through reverse polarity of the sensors.
 
CO Cutter
 ::exits the TL and enters the bridge.  Moves to the CNS::
   
CSO Lys
 ::exiting the crawl way, the Talan’s body starts cartwheeling down the hallway::

CNS Cutter
 ::looks around in wonder::
 
CO Cutter
 CNS:  Do you have the memories of the one you are using?

EO Davidson
 ::walks around the bridge:: CNS: Who are you?
   
CSO Lys
 {{ Hey!  I've never been able to do that.}}
  
SO La'tan
 ::walks around the bridge::

CTO Kostandinos
 ::exits the crawlway and looks around in wonder::

OPS Coreena
 ::Steps onto the bridge and goes to the XO::  XO:  I was not able to... ::Looks to see the captain there.::
   
XO Skye
 ::Sees the CO coming back onto the bridge.  Feeling the new freedom in this body she decides to take off to explore.::

CNS Cutter
 ::stands and grins:: CO: Yes.  Some.  And wow does she whine!
  
SO La'tan
 CNS: What is your race?

CNS Cutter
 {{I do not!  Oh man, here we go again}}
   
CSO Lys
 CTO: This is amazing!!!

OPS Coreena
 ::Watches her walk away::  XO:  Commander?

CTO Kostandinos
 ::starts trying to climb up a wall:: CSO: Cool huh?
   
XO Skye
 OPS: Isn't that nice. ::Gets in the TL::  TL: Deck 2
 
CO Cutter
 CNS:  What these two did with their bodies is… unusual.  Should we attempt that?  ::reaches for the hem of his tunic::

CTO Kostandinos
 {{Damn you!  Go away!}}

EO Davidson
 ::walks up to Coreena:: OPS: Who are you?

CNS Cutter
 EO: What is your problem???

OPS Coreena
 ::If possible, looks even more confused::

OPS Coreena
 EO:  I am Coreena.  What is wrong with everyone?
  
SO La'tan
 ::sets phaser to stun and shoots the Coreena::

CNS Cutter
 ::tilts her head and looks at him:: CO: Well.  We could try that I suppose.

CTO Kostandinos
 ::realizes the walls are smooth as she falls to the ground:: Self: OUCH!

EO Davidson
 ::shakes his head:: CNS: Nothing. I don’t know who or what I am.

EO Davidson
 OPS: Who?

CNS Cutter
 EO: I'll tell you who and what you are.  You're an idiot!  Still.  That you were even allowed to come and play here baffles me.
 
CO Cutter
 ::nods::  CNS: We have little to lose.  After all, these are not our bodies.  ::peels off his shirt and waits for her to do the same::

OPS Coreena
 ::Backs away, shaking her head.  Then slips back down to deck 11::
   
CSO Lys
 ::runs down the hallway and trips over the CTO::

EO Davidson
 CNS: Takes one to know one. ::sticks his tongue out at her::

CNS Cutter
 CO: Here??  ::shrugs out of one layer of clothing::

CNS Cutter
 ::rolls her eyes:: EO: You are so damn annoying.
 
CO Cutter
 ::looks around, then pulls two chairs together::  CNS:  Here?  ::pulls off his boots::

OPS Coreena
 ::Entering the computer room, moves to activate the comm system.  She needs Talan.::

CSO Lys
 ::holding up his hand:: CTO: What do you think this red stuff is?

CNS Cutter
 ::looks at the CO:: CO: Why is he here again?  And can we send him back?

EO Davidson
 CNS: Yeah, well ::laughing like a little kid:: your a poo-poo head. ::goes into the TL::

CO Cutter
 ::looks up with a boot in his hand::  CNS:  I suppose.   ::throws the boot at the EO::

CNS Cutter
 ::grins:: CO: Nice aim.  Let’s see if I can do the same. ::rips off one of her boots and flings it at the EO too::

EO Davidson
 ::ducks:: CO: Nana nana you missed m.e ::laughs:: Now you got to catch me.

EO Davidson
 ::dodges the other boot:: CNS: Haha, you missed me too.
  
SO La'tan
 ::goes into the turbolift::

CNS Cutter
 ::pegs him with her other boot, happy to see him fall to the ground:: CO: Now.  Where were we?
  
SO La'tan
 TL: Deck 11
  
SO La'tan
 ::exits the turbolift::
 
CO Cutter
 ::runs his hands up and down the CNS's body::  CNS:  This is an interesting sensation.  Strange though, this beings blood flow seems to have altered dramatically.
   
CSO Lys
 ::shrugs and wipes the red stuff of on his shirt before skipping down the hallway::

EO Davidson
 ::falls to the deck:: CO: That hurt.

EO Davidson
 ::goes into the TL:: TL: Take me somewhere, somewhere with people.

OPS Coreena
 ::Picks up the various chips she had removed.::

EO Davidson
 ::exits the TL and yells down the hall:: Hello!

OPS Coreena
 ::Reaching into one of the cabinets, pulls out a tool to remove the welded panel.::
   
CSO Lys
 ::stops at the door to the computer control room::  OPS: Hi!

CNS Cutter
 ::lets another article of clothing fall:: CO: Mmm.  What are you doing?  I think I like it though.  This one seems to react to your host.

OPS Coreena
 ::Turns around in relief::  CSO:  Talan, things are not right.

OPS Coreena
 ::Moves to him in relief::
  
SO La'tan
 ::heads off to the computer core::
   
CSO Lys
 OPS: You wanna have a race?

EO Davidson
 CTO: Hey you, wait up. ::runs towards the CTO::

OPS Coreena
 ::Stops and looks at him::  CSO:  You want to race?

SO La'tan
 ::runs into the EO:: EO: Where are you?
 
CO Cutter
 ::nods::  CNS:  This one also, but the memories of this one seem to be beyond the limits of flexibility.  Can your host actually bend that way?
    
Klord
 Action: the EO and SO collide nose to nose.
  
SO La'tan
 ::falls down::
   
CSO Lys
 OPS: Ya, see how fast we can move.  ::looks at her eyes::  There is something familiar in your eyes.

OPS Coreena
 ::Moves cautiously to him, and lays her arm on him::  ~~~CSO:  Are you alright?  Do you really want to race?~~~

EO Davidson
 ::falls to the deck:: SO: Watch where your going bub, or else.
  
SO La'tan
 ::gets up:: EO: Sorry I don’t know how I got here.
   
XO Skye
 ::Enters this being's quarters.  Looking through her possessions, letting them fall to the floor when it finishes looking them over.::
  
SO La'tan
 EO: One minute I was on the bridge then I am here.
   
CSO Lys
 ::looks down at her hand touching his arm:: OPS: That tingles.!

CNS Cutter
 CO: I think so.  I'm not sure WHY they want to do that though.  I guess that’s what we'll find out though.

EO Davidson
 SO: Who are you? ::goes to the TL again::
 
CO Cutter
 ::nods again::  CNS:  My host seems to believe this is an action performed in private.  Does yours?
  
SO La'tan
 EO: I am So’ta La'tan.

EO Davidson
 TL: Take me to ::thinks for a second and blurts out:: Engineering!
  
SO La'tan
 EO: Do you need any help with anything.
   
CSO Lys
 ~~~ ::brokenly:: OPS: Coreena!  Entity... trapped... free... ~~~

CNS Cutter
 ::nods:: CO: Oh yes.  She is very upset with me I think.  She doesn't think what we're doing is... appropriate?  That’s the word she used.

CNS Cutter
 CO: Maybe we should find a place without anyone else?

OPS Coreena
 ::Steps back from him and with her other sight, sees two different energy lines from the one body.  Takes back her hold::  ~~~CSO:  How?~~~
   
CSO Lys
 ::spins around, breaking the contact:: Aloud: Now what was that?
   
XO Skye
 ::Tries replicating different foods, tasting each of them for the first time.::
 
CO Cutter
 CNS:  That may be wise.  ::looks her up and down::  What exactly is a  ::whispers to her::

CSO Lys
 ::backs away from Coreena:: OPS: Now we can't have any of that.  No no no.

OPS Coreena
 CSO:  Are you hungry?

SO La'tan
 TL: Computer, bridge.
  
SO La'tan
 ::exits turbolift and heads to the science station.::
   
CSO Lys
 ::considers:: OPS: Hungry, yes. I think I am.

CNS Cutter
 ::grins wickedly:: CO: I can show you.  ::moves towards the RR, her long hair trailing down her naked back::

OPS Coreena
 ::Nods, trying to think what might work::  CSO:  Then I will feed you.  Come with me.  ::Leads him out of the room and to the nearest turbolift::
 
CO Cutter
 ::shrugs and follows Keely, feeling strangely like he's done this before::
   
CSO Lys
 ::follows the woman, careful to not touch her again::

OPS Coreena
 Computer: Deck 5.

OPS Coreena
 CSO:  How do you feel?
   
CSO Lys
 OPS: Wait!  Isn't the mess hall on deck 2?

EO Davidson
 TL: Wait, take me to where I live.
  
SO La'tan
 ::monitoring the station::

OPS Coreena
 CSO:  Yes, but we don't eat in the mess hall.  And I need to get something.
   
CSO Lys
 ::as he accesses more of Talan's memories:: OPS: Wait.  I think you are up to something.  Computer: Stop lift and open.  ::exits and runs down the corridor on Deck 6::

CNS Cutter
 ***Censored***

OPS Coreena
 ::Entering sickbay she looks around with a sinking feeling.  Every one she sees has the dual energy signals emanating from them.::
  
SO La'tan
 ::scanning::

OPS Coreena
 ::Watches as he runs down the hall.  Shakes her head and continues to get the items she needs.  Then with them in hand, returns to her quarters.::
   
XO Skye
 ::Finds a holo-picture of someone that the person she inhabits is fond on.  Relives some of her memories and drops it to the floor. Abruptly decides to head to this person's quarters.::

EO Davidson
 ::enters his quarters and looks around and finds a picture of him self holding a little baby:: Self: I know this little girl. ::looks confused a bit::
