Host XO_Skye says:
@Dvari:  We're heading to the nearest town.  Can you point the way?
Host CO_Cutter says:
CNS:  Uh huh....  want me to list the bruise locations?
CTO_Kordus says:
@::looks up at their visitor::
SO_Marr says:
@Self: Oh... Settle down...
CEO_Jax says:
@::pauses for a second, then smacks the horsefly, and flicks it away::  CSO: Much as I enjoy alien planets, I have never held fast with the insect population.
Dvari_Laris says:
@All: Get off those valuable animals right now, or I'll have you arrested for horse stealing.
CNS_Cutter says:

@::stares silently at the stranger::
Host XO_Skye says:
@::motions to the CTO to calm down.::
Host XO_Skye says:
@Dvari: Are these your horses?
Dvari_Laris says:
@CTO: You are on my property and those are my horses!
Dvari_Laris says:
@All: Get off them now!
SO_Marr says:
@::looks to the XO::
CEO_Jax says:
@CSO: Is something wrong?
Host XO_Skye says:
@Dvari:  Let me introduce myself.  I'm Commander Samantha Skye.....
Host CO_Cutter says:
CNS:  Well, Cowgirl Sally...  why don't you turn over the helm to Othello and take weapons?
Dvari_Laris says:
@::gets down off her horse and goes to examine the others:: Horses: There there my babies, they won't hurt you.
Host XO_Skye says:
@Dvari: Of the USS Hayden.  We've landed. ::Glances back at the CEO:: rather far from our destination.....We are here to help your planet avert the problem with the rogue planet in the system and we need to quickly get to the nearest city.
CNS_Cutter says:
CO: Fine.  You can stare at HIS hiney instead since you prefer it to mine. ::gives the helm back to the FCO::
CSO_Lys says:
@ ::stares at the CEO in disbelief::  CEO: You just.. you...  ::takes a deep breath and sighs, shaking his head slightly::  Perhaps we should get to work.  ::says the last very flatly::
Host XO_Skye says:
@Dvari: You're more than welcome to accompany us to make sure we don't injure your horses, but time is of the essence.
CNS_Cutter says:
::takes control of the weapons and smiles grimly.  Wonder what the CTO had for dealing with mean ass husbands?::
Dvari_Laris says:
@XO: So you steal my property?
Host XO_Skye says:
@ Dvari: Not at all.....We were going to borrow and return it.
FCO_Knight says:
::Finds the familiar CONN and takes his seat behind it:. Smiles at the CNS' comments and starts to tap commands::
Host Klord says:
Action: at Dvari signal a number of men rise up and cover the AT with weapons
CEO_Jax says:
@CSO: It was a carnivorous insect was it not?  Without knowing the details of animal life on this planet, it would be safer for on to assume a hazardous reaction to an insect bite, than find oneself in the infirmary with an incurable infection.
Dvari_Laris says:
@XO: These are very high quality breeding stock and you dare to "borrow" them?
Host CO_Cutter says:
FCO:  Lay in an intercept course for the rouge planet.
SO_Marr says:
@::one hand on the phaser, surely his horse will provide some cover for a moment... they'd never fire on her breeding stock::
FCO_Knight says:
CO: Course plotted and laid in.
Host XO_Skye says:
@Dvari: We're here to help you.......and if you don't let us you won't have any horses to worry about.
CTO_Kordus says:
@::draws her own weapon in response and motions her security team to do the same, just to be safe....::
Dvari_Laris says:
@XO: Now get off those animals or my men will take you off by force!
Host XO_Skye says:
@CTO: Stand down.....
Host CO_Cutter says:
FCO:  Get us there in a hurry Othello.  Engage
Host XO_Skye says:
@Dvari: Would you be willing to let us retain our position and you escort us?
Host CO_Cutter says:
CNS:  Keely... when we're in range, scan the thing and see what you can tell me.
CTO_Kordus says:
@::throws a "It's your funeral" glare at the XO and reluctantly stands her team down, not trusting this whole thing for an instant::
CNS_Cutter says:
::"accidentally" trips, sending her shoe flying towards her husband's head::
CNS_Cutter says:
CO: Of course, Sir.
CNS_Cutter says:
::waits until they get in range and starts scanning the thing::
CSO_Lys says:
@ ::now completely disgusted::  CEO: You know, Commander, many form of insects have developed quite high levels of intelligence and some even to a level comparable to our own... and you just killed that innocent life form without provocation.  It hadn't bitten you.  You could have just waved it away, but no... you had to kill it.... and then... then to be so flippant about it.  I would expect more  ::begrudgingly::  sir.
Host CO_Cutter says:
::starts as the shoe flies by his head and shoots his wife a pretend to be a professional glare::
Dvari_Laris says:
@XO: Who are you working for? Did that man send you here to spy on me?
SO_Marr says:
@::sizes up the situation, 3 v. 10, we've got animals and probably superior weapons, plus no one would ever find the bodies out here...::
FCO_Knight says:
CO: Engaged. Best possible speed. There may be some gravimetric shearing, so it's gonna be  a bit bumpy. No worries, eh?
Host Klord says:
Action: a large Swoop is imprinted in the CO's forehead as the shoe bounces off the wall and rebounds hitting him squarely
Host CO_Cutter says:
FCO:  ::rolls his eyes::  Oh... never any worries.
CNS_Cutter says:
::smiles sweetly at him::
Host XO_Skye says:
@Dvari: We are working for the United Federation of Planets......and no man sent us here to spy on you.  Your planet is going to be pulled apart by tidal forces provided by a rogue planet that is coming into the area.
CNS_Cutter says:
All: Oops?  ::Goes and retrieves her shoe before scanning again::
SO_Marr says:
@::glances a look over at the CTO, working on silent strategy and hopefully getting through::
Dvari_Laris says:
@XO: You are talking like a mad woman. I just know that fool sent you.
CTO_Kordus says:
@::glances around at the AT, and can see from the look on the SO's face that he's contemplating how to make the whole "disturbance" disappear... smirks her approval but still maintains the stand-down order until it becomes necessary to defend themselves::
Dvari_Laris says:
@::motions to her men to move in closer::
CNS_Cutter says:
CO: I don’t' know what you were planning but although its a relatively small planet?  Its still too large for us to lock onto and move with tractor beams.
FCO_Knight says:
::Smiles at the CO's reply and at the fun he's having plotting through this mess::
Host XO_Skye says:
@Dvari: Well if that sounds too outlandish to be true......then whatever man you are talking about probably couldn't think it up.  Now....who are you talking about?
CEO_Jax says:
@CSO: Were a Klingon to hold a Bat’lith to my throat, I would not assume it benign.  I know many Klingon’s, all of varying dispositions, and even some that border on friendly...however I would not like to gamble on the chance that this was one of them....though it would seem we have a more urgent matter than quality of life at the varying levels of cognizance.
Host CO_Cutter says:
CNS:  That would be two of us that don't know what I'm planning.  I assume no life signs?
Host XO_Skye says:
@::Hopes the CEO and CSO are listening......after all this is what they are here for.::
Host Klord says:
Action: a large asteroid is suddenly visible in the path of the Hayden. Collision alarms sound
SO_Marr says:
@::rests his hand on his phaser, estimates the distance between AT members, available cover...::
CNS_Cutter says:
CO: Correct.
Dvari_Laris says:
@XO: My competition of course. He thinks he can beat me in this week's race but he doesn't stand a chance. Now where did you say you were going?
Host CO_Cutter says:
FCO:  ::tensely::  Othello....
FCO_Knight says:
Self: Crap on a bloody stick! All: Hang on! ::Attempts to veer Hayden away from the obstacle::
Host XO_Skye says:
@Dvari: We're going to the nearest town.  We need to help determine the exact threat to the planet and how we can help the planet avert the crisis.
CTO_Kordus says:
@::listening intently to what the stranger is saying... racing, and owning horses?  She thought they ate them around here, not raced them...::
Dvari_Laris says:
@::glances over at the other team members::
Host CO_Cutter says:
CNS:  What kind of force or explosion would it take to change the course of this thing so it avoids any other planets?
CNS_Cutter says:
::frowning:: CO: Too many of those stupid asteroids aren't easily detected or scanned...  made of some dark material is all I've got.
CSO_Lys says:
@ ::nods that they should get to work - pulls out his tricorder and runs some scans of the nearby horses::
Host CO_Cutter says:
FCO:  All stop
Host CO_Cutter says:
CNS:  Raise shields
FCO_Knight says:
::Grips the CONN as he tries to stabilize the ship::
CNS_Cutter says:
::raises shields:: CO: Shields raised.
Host CO_Cutter says:
FCO:  You're going to have to also play OPS for me.  Dispatch repair teams to decks 8 and 9
SO_Marr says:
@::breathes deeply, flexing a few chest muscles and sizing up this stranger::
FCO_Knight says:
::Transfers OPS controls to one of his panels and slides over to it:: CO: Repair teams, aye. COMM: Repair teams to decks 8 an' 9. 
Dvari_Laris says:
@XO: Well I own the nearest town so I must be persuaded to take you there.
CSO_Lys says:
@ ::starts looking over the scans, but a lot of it doesn't make sense to him being an astrophysicist, not a biologist::
Dvari_Laris says:
@::smiles at the SO and winks::
Host CO_Cutter says:
FCO:  What is the ETA of the rogue planet to impact with an inhabited planet?
Host XO_Skye says:
@Dvari: We would much appreciate your escort......What can you tell us of the government on the planet?
Dvari_Laris says:
@::motions to her men to surround the group::
Host XO_Skye says:
@Dvari: I was under the impression you were going to escort us to the town.
CSO_Lys says:
@ ::looks up and wonders what is going on around them... are they surrounded?::
SO_Marr says:
@::his eyes narrow and his breathing heavier; Marr doesn't like this one at all::
FCO_Knight says:
::Scans the planets speed and vector::
CTO_Kordus says:
@::stiffens at their new, unfamiliar "escort"... her team reads her uncomfortable demeanor and is on higher alert::
Dvari_Laris says:
@XO: The council of twelve rule here. ::motions for the group to move out::
CNS_Cutter says:
CO: It doesn't look like any of our weapons would be enough on their own... ::frowning, still working::
Host XO_Skye says:
@::Juts her heels gently into the horses sides.:: Dvari: Tell me about this council.
Dvari_Laris says:
@XO: I said I would take you there, but my men go where I go.
Dvari_Laris says:
@::gets on her horse and prods it to move::
Host CO_Cutter says:
CNS:  I was afraid of that Keely
Host XO_Skye says:
@Dvari: A reasonable action......so about this council of twelve.
Host CO_Cutter says:
FCO:  How you coming on those calculations?
Host CO_Cutter says:
*XO*  Sam, this is Jason.  What's your status?
CNS_Cutter says:
::scowls at the consoles not giving her the readouts that she wanted... specifically the results she wanted::
Host XO_Skye says:
@*CO*: We're heading into the nearest town....I'm trying to ascertain more information on the situation at present.
CSO_Lys says:
@ ::seeing that they are moving on, Talan swings himself expertly up on one of the remaining horses, speaks softly to it, and they move off with no prodding needed::
Host CO_Cutter says:
*XO*  Make it quick Sam... we're not having any brainstorms up here.
SO_Marr says:
@::thinks to himself, "Surrounded, being led who-knows-where by an armed escort..."::
Host XO_Skye says:
@::Make it quick?  Make it quick?  We're basically being escorted at gunpoint.....and he says make it quick.:: *CO*: Of course, Sir.....
CTO_Kordus says:
@::for lack of being able to do much else, listens to the conversation surrounding the "council of 12", hoping to glean any information she can::
CSO_Lys says:
@ ::hearing the Captain's voice, he wonders why he is sent on a genetic mission when there is an astronomical one back aboard the ship that doesn't sound good::
Host CO_Cutter says:
::notes the sarcasm in Sam's tone... frowns but doesn't comment::
Dvari_Laris says:
XO: I am one of twelve members that rule here. We all own a portion of the planet and we rule it without interference. As you can see we raise the finest animals in all the galaxy and that is my main concern, not some disaster.
CEO_Jax says:
@::looks curiously at the CSO and follows suit, quite unsure of himself::
CTO_Kordus says:
@::thinks "If you have no planet to raise these animals on, would it become a concern to you then?::
SO_Marr says:
@Self, under breath: I should have a rifle. This hand phaser isn't working.
Host XO_Skye says:
@Dvari: But if you want to retain your animals, the disaster should concern you.....If the rogue planet strikes this planet.....you won't have any of these magnificent horses left or the beautiful tract of land that you now own.
Host CO_Cutter says:
FCO:  Open a channel to Starfleet Command...  send them everything we have so far and ask for suggestions.
CTO_Kordus says:
@::smirks at Sam's buttering up their "armed escort"::
CSO_Lys says:
@ :: thinking to himself  "sure, he kills the smaller life forms but something that can trample him if it wanted he is all nervous about" - indicates to the CEO how he should mount the horse::
Dvari_Laris says:
@XO: The people decide the outcome of things should the council not come to an agreement. You will have to convince the council and the people but our scientists say there is no danger that it will impact here.
Host Klord says:
Action: several large meteorites streak the sky above the AT
CEO_Jax says:
@CSO: Ah...thank you Commander...I admit I'm not used to this sort of transportation.
FCO_Knight says:
CO: I figure at least 34 hours, give or take unknown gravity variables. ::Opens a channel to SF and gives them a quick report and requests instructions::
Host XO_Skye says:
::Tries to steady her horse as the meteorites glow as they race across the sky.::
Dvari_Laris says:
@::watches the SO ride by with interest::
CTO_Kordus says:
@::looks up suddenly at the noise above them - wonders if that's enough proof for Ms. Landowner::
SO_Marr says:
@::sees the meteorites and rolls his eyes at another backwards civilization about to be obliterated::
CSO_Lys says:
@ CEO:  Treat it respectfully and it will treat you the same.  A good lesson always.  ::turns his head to the sky to see the meteorites::
Host CO_Cutter says:
FCO:  Very well
Host CO_Cutter says:
FCO/CNS:  Folks, I am way open to suggestions here.
CEO_Jax says:
@CSO: Indeed...I only hope it knows that.
Host XO_Skye says:
@Dvari: Doesn't that mean anything to you?  ::Points at the meteorites::
SO_Marr says:
@::glances down at Dvari with that "you've got me under armed guard" look but repressing any disrespect::
Dvari_Laris says:
@XO: I believe in the scientists and they say there is no danger to us.
CSO_Lys says:
@ ::noting that his SO is regressing to TO:: SO: Mr. Marr... are you getting scans on this?  ::indicates above::
FCO_Knight says:
CO: Unless we can change th' gravimetric forces 'round 'ere, I'm stumped. Got any friends in th' Q?
Host XO_Skye says:
@::Motions to the CSO to join them.:: Dvari: What if we could offer substantial proof from one of our scientists.
Host CO_Cutter says:
FCO:   ::thinks of Q'utie and shudders::  Not that desperate... yet.
CSO_Lys says:
@ ::rides up to the XO::  XO: Yes, Ma'am.
FCO_Knight says:
::Laughs and slaves the CONN looking for an answer::
Dvari_Laris says:
@XO: You will have to convince all of the council and they will not believe an outsider.
SO_Marr says:
@::wonders how he's supposed to be scanning when the entire AT has weapons drawn on them... slips open the tricorder:: CSO: Yes, sir. Recording.
Host CO_Cutter says:
CNS:  I know you're not a weapons expert, but could we build some kind of bomb and take it to the surface that would be strong enough to have any effect?
CNS_Cutter says:
::keeps working on the readouts:: CO: Um... brace yourself but I might be getting something...
Dvari_Laris says:
@CSO: Hey you there!
Host CO_Cutter says:
CNS:  I knew you had it in you!
CEO_Jax says:
@CSO: I must say...were it not for the weaponry, this would be a pleasant ride.
CSO_Lys says:
@ Dvari:  Yes?
Host XO_Skye says:
@Dvari: Why will they not believe an outsider.  Mr. Lys is one of the most knowledgeable scientists I know... ::nods to the CSO who has joined them.::
Host XO_Skye says:
@Dvari: Are you able to assemble the council of twelve for us?
FCO_Knight says:
CO: No worries, eh? ::Continues scans::
CNS_Cutter says:
CO: Planet has a molten core... which is under pressure right?  If we released the pressure it could push it out of the way, right?
Dvari_Laris says:
@CSO: Get up there with my man. The town is just over that rise. We should be there in a few minutes.
Host CO_Cutter says:
::frowns::  CNS:  You mean like a rocket engine?
CSO_Lys says:
@ ::looks over to the XO to see if he should::
CNS_Cutter says:
CO: So if we did some special math thingy and came up with some accurate calculations.... shouldn't the released pressure shove it out of the way?
Host XO_Skye says:
@:: Prods her horse alongside of Talan's.:: Dvari: We'll all go together, thank you.
Dvari_Laris says:
@XO: It will be difficult.
CNS_Cutter says:
::frowns, concentrating hard:: CO: Um... sure?
Host CO_Cutter says:
::Not sure, but hates trying nothing::
Host XO_Skye says:
@Dvari: But a woman of your capabilities and persuasion should easily be able to accomplish the task.
Host CO_Cutter says:
FCO:  Okay.... you get to work on calculating where on the planet the release point would have to be to send the planet in the right direction.
CTO_Kordus says:
@::bites the inside of her cheeks... the kissing up is being taken to new levels... looks around to see if anyone else is noticing it::
Dvari_Laris says:
@::speeds up herself::XO: Don't flatter me Commander. I don't fall for a pretty face or false flattery.
Host CO_Cutter says:
CNS:  And you, girl genius, figure out how we're going to release the molten core quickly enough that the pressure doesn't just ooze out.
CNS_Cutter says:
CO/FCO: Um... of course, it would take some planning to get it to actually work.... and some freaking awesome calculations.
CSO_Lys says:
@ ::watches the battle of wills between the two women::
FCO_Knight says:
CNS/CO: Sounds like propulsion mechanics 101 and Newton's Law of Motion t' me.
SO_Marr says:
@::wonders how well a tricorder works as improvised weaponry::
CNS_Cutter says:
CO: Well... why not drill down a certain amount and then use a controlled explosion to release it quickly?
Dvari_Laris says:
@All: There, there's my town. :;points::
Host CO_Cutter says:
FCO:  See Othello!  You're halfway there already....  you should have those calculations to me in 2 minutes flat.
CNS_Cutter says:
FCO: Glad you understand it because I don't.  ::shrugs::
Host CO_Cutter says:
CNS:  ::shrugs::  Makes sense to me.  I assume my acting weapons officer has run some simulations to figure out how deep and what kind of explosion to use?
Host XO_Skye says:
@Dvari: You are the one who stated you are on the council of twelve....You have shown us your determination.  I have every confidence you are capable of gathering the other eleven.  Isn't even the possible endangerment of your planet worth convening of the group?
CNS_Cutter says:
CO: I'm working on it.  Takes some time to be this brilliant AND beautiful you know!
Host CO_Cutter says:
::decides to just accept her statement if she comes up with an answer::
Dvari_Laris says:
@XO: If what you say can be proven then I will try to gather them together. It may provide a chance to set up another race or two as well. ::grins evilly::
FCO_Knight says:
CO: I figure a phaser hit at least 30 meters anywhere near a point on th' equator an' then a photon torpedo detonation after eight seconds of phaser drillin' would produce the desired 'effect.
Host CO_Cutter says:
FCO:  Anywhere?  I would assume there is a direction we want to release the pressure in
Host XO_Skye says:
@::Doesn't like the feel of Dvari's look.....Simply nods in acknowledgement and prods her horse along to more of a gallop than a canter.::
CNS_Cutter says:
::swears at her latest simulation....loudly::
Dvari_Laris says:
@::leans over to the SO::SO: You like horses? ::smiles::
FCO_Knight says:
CO: Hoping our phasers can drill at least 46 meters near the core in 6-10 seconds.
SO_Marr says:
@Dvari: I'm not extremely experienced with them. ::maintains a stoic face, neither smiling or frowning::
Host XO_Skye says:
@::At the moment, wishes that the CTO or the SO were telepathic.::
CNS_Cutter says:
CO/FCO: ::tersely::  Apparently the size of the hole and the angle of the drilling are fairly critical.. as is finding the center of gravity, otherwise the sucker just starts spinning like a pinwheel.
CSO_Lys says:
@ XO: Do you think they will listen?
Dvari_Laris says:
@SO: You look like you were born in the saddle. Pity...
FCO_Knight says:
CO: O' course. In the opposite direction o' the planet's movement. I meant anywhere along the equator near dead center of the other side.
Host CO_Cutter says:
CNS:  Makes sense.  Have the numbers yet?
SO_Marr says:
@Dvari: Why do you say that?
Host XO_Skye says:
@CSO: We need to make them listen, Talan....
Host Klord says:
Action: the riders enter the local metropolis
CNS_Cutter says:
CO: Shortly...
Host CO_Cutter says:
::nods and settles back to wait::
Dvari_Laris says:
@SO: I could use a good jockey. One of mine got killed in the last race. Haven't had time to find a replacement yet.
CSO_Lys says:
@ XO: No pressure...  ::sighs and wonders when they will have a normal mission... just chart a gaseous anomaly with nothing going wrong::
FCO_Knight says:
CO/CNS: I've got target coordinates. Hoping that I'm 'bout near the zone.
SO_Marr says:
@Dvari: I think I'm too big to be a jockey. And I already have extensive responsibilities.
Host XO_Skye says:
@Dvari: How long will it take you to convene the council of twelve?
Host CO_Cutter says:
FCO:  Feed those coordinates over to Keely so she can plug them into her sims
CTO_Kordus says:
@::rides up closer to the front where the XO and CSO are talking, taking in the surroundings::
CNS_Cutter says:
:;shakes head:: CO: We have to orbit the sucker, Jase, in order to get accurate enough readings.
FCO_Knight says:
CO: We'll have to fly right in fron' o' the planet t' get it. ::Sends the coordinates to the CNS::
Dvari_Laris says:
@::turns to the XO::XO: Hard to say, maybe twenty-four hours or so.
Host XO_Skye says:
@CSO: You have twenty four hours to find a way to make them believe us.
Host CO_Cutter says:
::sigh::  FCO:  Move us CAREFULLY into standard orbit around the planet.  Keep sharp, holding orbit won't be easy.
Dvari_Laris says:
@CSO: How about you? Care to ride for me?
Host XO_Skye says:
<w>@CTO: You and the SO are to find out about the genetic tampering....
Host XO_Skye says:
@Dvari: I'm an accomplished rider.....I can help you out if it's while were still here and it doesn't conflict with my duties.
FCO_Knight says:
CO: No worries. This is th' fun part.
SO_Marr says:
@::nods at the XO and starts scanning everything that's moving::
CTO_Kordus says:
@::gives an almost imperceptible nod that only the XO would be able to see, indicating her consent::
CSO_Lys says:
@ Dvari:  While I do love horses, this one specifically is quite exceptional, I'm afraid my heart is up there  ::points to the sky::
Host CO_Cutter says:
::mutters... Yeah... last time he damn near hit a big rock::
Dvari_Laris says:
@:;raises an eyebrow at the XO::XO: You? I don't think so. Never had a woman ride for me before.
FCO_Knight says:
::Moves the Hayden as he has to. Keeping a sharper eye on his flight sensors and the view screen::
Host XO_Skye says:
@Dvari: Wouldn't it quite shock the others in the race.  I'm lighter than a man and can ride a horse faster because of it
Dvari_Laris says:
@CSO: Either you ride in the race for me or I don't gather the council.
Dvari_Laris says:
@XO: You have no idea do you? This is not a race to see who is faster, it is a race of wills.
CTO_Kordus says:
@::thinks the CSO should go for it, it would give them an excuse to get deeper into the society and find out more about what's "really" going on down there::
CSO_Lys says:
@ ::looks to the XO, not sure what to do... give her a look saying, "I could do it"::
Host XO_Skye says:
@Dvari: A race of wills?
FCO_Knight says:
CO: We'll need a synchronous orbit with t' target or we'll not be accurate.
SO_Marr says:
@::is far too wrapped up in his scans to notice the recruitment of the CSO::
CNS_Cutter says:
::still scannin'::
Host CO_Cutter says:
FCO:  If I understand Keely right, first we need a full orbit or two for her to scan the planet.
Dvari_Laris says:
@XO: I need someone that can win, so who else have you got that I can look over?
CNS_Cutter says:
::nods:: CO/FCO: That’s what I'm needing..
Host XO_Skye says:
@Dvari: Actually I have a better idea.....We have a woman onboard the ship that is one of the best horsemen I've ever seen. ::Doesn't mention that she's never seen her, but Jason's raved about her abilities.:: She would be an excellent choice for you.
FCO_Knight says:
CO: I'm just pointing out the details for the execution. CNS: Apologies, ma'am.
Dvari_Laris says:
@XO: If you can't find someone then I want this Talan fellow. Well produce her.
Host CO_Cutter says:
FCO:  Understood Othello...  once we're ready, but us in the correct orbit for implementation.
Host XO_Skye says:
@Dvari: Right away.
CSO_Lys says:
@ ::shakes his head, realizing how much command is like politics and glad he isn't in either::
Host XO_Skye says:
@*CO*: Jason......I need Keely down here on the double.
SO_Marr says:
@XO: Sir. Impacts are increasing steadily. Incoming debris will begin yielding fatalities soon.
Host XO_Skye says:
@SO: How soon?
Host CO_Cutter says:
*XO*  For what?
CNS_Cutter says:
FCO: No worries.
Host XO_Skye says:
@*CO*: I need an experienced horseman.....to jockey for a race or they will not convene the local government.
SO_Marr says:
@::continues scanning:: XO: A few days at best, probably earlier.
CNS_Cutter says:
::looks up, puzzled.  What the heck..?::
Dvari_Laris says:
@::pulls up in front of a large structure:: All: Well you people getting down or what?
Host CO_Cutter says:
*XO*  Negative Sam...  we are not in orbit of your planet and I need Keely here.  You're going to have to deal with it on your own XO.
CSO_Lys says:
@ ::hearing the SO::  SO: Starting working on this... see if you can use a series of probes from the Hayden to form a defense net around the planet to reduce as many of those impacts as possible.
FCO_Knight says:
ALL: We are in range of th' planet. Achievin' standard orbit. ::Smiles at the Aussie reply of the CNS::
Host XO_Skye says:
@SO: I want to know when we get close to that point, Mr. Marr......No matter what I'm doing interrupt me.
SO_Marr says:
@::nods at the CSO and XO: CSO/XO: Yes, sirs.
Dvari_Laris says:
@XO: Guess that Captain fellow doesn't think she's so hot huh? :;smiles and gives the CSO her smoldering eyes look::
FCO_Knight says:
::Steers away from the asteroid headed in their way::
CSO_Lys says:
@ ::looks back at Dvari, the smoldering eyes look lost on him::
Host CO_Cutter says:
CNS:  Getting the scans you need Keely?
Host XO_Skye says:
@Dvari: I'll ride for you.....If nothing else you should have seen my 'will' by now.
CNS_Cutter says:
::nods vaguely, working her little hiney off... her nicer hiney then the FCO's hiney...::
Dvari_Laris says:
@XO: I want him! ::points to Talan::
SO_Marr says:
@*Bridge*: Marr to Hayden.
FCO_Knight says:
::Moves back into orbit as quickly as possible:: Self: Bloody rocks.
Host XO_Skye says:
Dvari: I know you do......But I need him to do something else.  I'm good and more expendable than he is for the next couple of days.  You get a capable rider.
Host CO_Cutter says:
CNS:  Okay....  I promise I'll always say you have a tighter butt than Othello if you just get us a good answer here Keely...  okay?
Dvari_Laris says:
@XO: Him or no council Commander.
CSO_Lys says:
@ XO: Commander, it is okay.  I can handle it.  ::gives Sam a reassuring look::
CNS_Cutter says:
CO: Don't just say it... gotta mean it.  ::still working::
Host CO_Cutter says:
CNS:  Always!
Dvari_Laris says:
@XO: Remember, I can still have you up on horse stealing charges. ::smirks wryly::
Host XO_Skye says:
@::Has no doubt in Talan's abilities....just feels he's needed more elsewhere.::
