Host Bishop says:
The USS Nighthawk is en route to the Lefal system to collect more intel on these creatures. You  will be accompanied by a pair of Defiant Class escorts, the USS Sun Tzu and USS Khufu.

Host Bishop says:
Starfleet R&D wants you to collect a few of the creatures, alive if possible. Cargo bay 2 is now retrofitted as a containment area.

Host Bishop says:
If the Nighthawk or either escort is disabled during the mission, no prisoners or equipment is to be left behind intact. Rescue the crew if possible but make sure that the enemy does not get a hold of the unfortunate crew, dead or alive.

CO: Aye Sir ::transmits on the secure channel to the defiants to keep the Warbird busy until otherwise told::

CMO_Dalton says:
<Doc>: CMO: Understood

TO_Knight says:
CTO: Sir...warbird is approaching armed and shields up

CMO_Dalton says:
::Exits sickbay and enters the TL:: TL: Bridge

CTO_Black says:
:nodds to TO:: XO: Commander...the Warbird is concentrating on us...

OPS_Anderson says:
XO: Could you be more specific Commander

MO_Kyst says:
CO: These creatures obviously think, and on a level far above ours.  They are similar to the borg in the way that every member of their society is working toward a common goal, but they exist individually.

XO_Toorain says:
OPS:Why were we reading them one moment, and not the next?

CMO_Dalton says:
::Exits the TL and enters the bridge::

XO_Toorain says:
CTO:Understood.  Get Khufu and Sun tzu to try and draw their fire.

CTO_Black says:
::locks all weapons again on the Warbird's weapons aray::

MO_Kyst says:
CO: My suggestion is that we get the hell out of here.  A little way, anyway.

OPS_Anderson says:
XO: The computer could find no explanation for it Cmdr. We are still looking into it

MO_Kyst says:
CMO: Anything new?

TO_Knight says:
::watches the Warbird approach and wonders if there are any life signs on it::

Host CO_Cerdan says:
MO: That doesn't help our mission

XO_Toorain says:
OPS:Anything special in this region of space that could be interfering with our sensors?

CMO_Dalton says:
MO: Nothing other than what I am feeling is not logical

Host CO_Cerdan says:
FCO: Plot a course for the planet

MO_Kyst says:
CO: I don't mean permenantly, but our ship and the defiants are theirs if we don't withdraw.

XO_Toorain says:
MO:What makes you say that?

FCO-Exeter says:
::is wondering if he could evade the Warbird::CO:course plotted,sir

MO_Kyst says:
CMO: What do you mean?

CTO_Black says:
OPS: Can you message the Khufu and Sun tzu to concentrate their weapon fire on the Warbirds weapon system...? I'll transfer them the coordinates...

Host CO_Cerdan says:
FCO: Around that Warbird

Host CO_Cerdan says:
FCO: Make a run for the planet and see if they follow us

FCO-Exeter says:
CO:Over that Warbird you mean

Host CO_Cerdan says:
FCO: ENgage

CTO_Black says:
::transfers coordinates to the two defiants::

CMO_Dalton says:
MO: Seems like the borg, like you said with a common goal but not working a collective

OPS_Anderson says:
XO: None dectected, I'll run sensors again

FCO-Exeter says:
::flys the Nighthawk over the warbird and heads for the planet::

TO_Knight says:
::gets ready to transfer power to shields or weapons if need be::

OPS_Anderson says:
CTO: Already have, just transmit the coordinates

Host CO_Cerdan says:
XO: Keep scanning for a lock on one of the creatures

MO_Kyst says:
::suddenly his eyes get wide and he drops to the floor clutching his head::

CMO_Dalton says:
CO: I suggest that if the BoP is being ran by these creatures, we beam over with plenty of weapons and capture the two we need, sir

CTO_Black says:
OPS: Transmitting complete...

XO_Toorain says:
OPS:Thank you.

CMO_Dalton says:
CO: I will be able to study them and give SF a complete report

OPS_Anderson says:
CTO: Noted

XO_Toorain says:
CO:Aye sir.

Host CO_Cerdan says:
MO: Are you all right?

Host CO_Cerdan says:
CMO: We can't transport through their shields

FCO-Exeter says:
::breaks hard to right::All:sorry wrong button

Host Bishop says:
ACTION:As the Three ships glide over the Warbird several disruptor shots are fired in their direction, but none of them make contact

CTO_Black says:
::keeps an eye on the Warbirds fight with the defiants::

TO_Knight says:
::shields still at full strength sir

Host CO_Cerdan says:
CTO: IS the Warbird following or engageing the others?

CMO_Dalton says:
CO: Understood but we can see if their system can be over taken just long enough to beam on and then off

OPS_Anderson says:
XO: Sorry Cmdr, scans again show negative

Host CO_Cerdan says:
MO: Calm down

TO_Knight says:
CTO: She's following us sir

XO_Toorain says:
OPS:Understood.

MO_Kyst says:
XO: They can follow us anywhere.  We need to eradicate them, they most likely already have creatures on this very ship, I know they do on the defiants.

FCO-Exeter says:
::tapps a few buttons and smiles::

CTO_Black says:
TO: Understood... CO: She is following us Captain..

Host CO_Cerdan says:
XO: Any ideas on why there following us?

Host Bishop says:
ACTION:The Fed group aproaches the Planet, the romulan warbird turns and begins pursuit

XO_Toorain says:
CO:Sir, I am totally clueless.  My only thought is that they may want our ships.

Host CO_Cerdan says:
XO: Protecting their Queen maybe?

TO_Knight says:
CTO: She's matching our course sir

Host CO_Cerdan says:
XO: They seem to be insect like

XO_Toorain says:
CO:Trying to run us out of town?  Possible.

MO_Kyst says:
CO: No, no Queen.  That is the weird part, I hear no definative voice.

XO_Toorain says:
CO:Working as a hive could be logical.

CTO_Black says:
TO: Acknowledged....what readings do you get from the planet...what is so important....?

MO_Kyst says:
CO/XO: There is no supreme creature, I don't think.  They are all just connected to one another.

XO_Toorain says:
OPS:Scan the planet.

TO_Knight says:
CTO: The only thing down there is the...Fort, with all of our Starfleet training techniques...oh no!

OPS_Anderson says:
XO: Aye Aye Sir

FCO-Exeter says:
::yawns::Self: can't we just dropp a torpedo or two.

CTO_Black says:
TO: Mr Knight...?

Host CO_Cerdan says:
OPS: Can you read any lifeforms at all?

TO_Knight says:
CTO: Sir?

OPS_Anderson says:
::runs a scan on the planet::

XO_Toorain says:
::scowls at FCO's back...again::

MO_Kyst says:
CO: We need a way around their sheilds, I want one of these bugs in a jar in my quarters.

CMO_Dalton says:
CO: I have an idea sir, If they are linked by some form of telepathy, we might be able to over take them, sir,

Host CO_Cerdan says:
MO: That is our mission

Host CO_Cerdan says:
CMO: Explain

TO_Knight says:
CTO: They would know how to beat our standard training...they would know as much as we do..and if it is a hive type mind...

OPS_Anderson says:
CO: Not on the surface other than the facility, but there is a huge energy signature under the surface of the planet

CTO_Black says:
TO: Any sign of other anomalies on the planet...?

XO_Toorain says:
MO:That would be stupid.  It would break out, and likely kill you.

MO_Kyst says:
XO: No, sir, I want it dead.

CTO_Black says:
TO: The MO said that they weren't connected to each other....

MO_Kyst says:
CTO: No, I didn't.  They are connected.

Host CO_Cerdan says:
XO: We have to take care of that Warbird so we can get to the surface

MO_Kyst says:
CTO: They are just individuals.

OPS_Anderson says:
CO: Not on the surface other than the facility, but there is a huge  energy signature under the surface of the planet

CMO_Dalton says:
CO: Telepathy is using brain waves to talk to one another, therefore if i can figure out the frequincy they are using we might be able to tapp in and gain control of a ship

FCO-Exeter says:
::ignores his surrounding and looks at the approaching Warbird::

CTO_Black says:
MO: By what sort of "connection"..?

XO_Toorain says:
::turns head to console::CO:Agreed.  What if we set the Defiants after the warbird, and we go to the planet?

Host CO_Cerdan says:
OPS: Acknowledged

TO_Knight says:
CTO: Sorry sir...just remembering our orders...

MO_Kyst says:
CMO: Not even both of us working together have nearly the power to fight an entire hive.

Host CO_Cerdan says:
XO: It will take all 3 to stop that warbird

OPS_Anderson says:
CO: Aye Sir

TO_Knight says:
CTO: Warbird pursuing us again sir

Host CO_Cerdan says:
FCO: Turn and Engage

CMO_Dalton says:
MO: We dont have to over come the hive but just the ones on the warbird

XO_Toorain says:
CO:Then I suggest we all three attack it sir.

MO_Kyst says:
CMO: They are all together mentally.  Once they detect us, the lot of them will be on us like greed on a Ferengi.

FCO-Exeter says:
CO:I advise against it,sir::turns and engages the ship::

CTO_Black says:
TO: Understood....we need to get rid of that Warbird...

MO_Kyst says:
XO: No offense.

XO_Toorain says:
MO:Objection.

Host CO_Cerdan says:
CTO Target their weapons

OPS_Anderson says:
:: transmits to the Defiants to engage::

TO_Knight says:
CTO:Targets coordinates now sir

CTO_Black says:
::locks on to the Warbirds weapons aray:: CO: Aye Captain...locking on...

Host CO_Cerdan says:
CTO: Fire at will

CTO_Black says:
TO: Ok... ::transfers the coordinates to the defiants as well::

CTO_Black says:
::nodds to the CO and fires all weapons at the Warbird::

Host Bishop says:
ACTION:There is a massive nerergy surge coming from the location of the ground facility on the planet

CTO_Black  (All Weapons FIRE!.wav)

TO_Knight says:
ALL: We have a major energy surge coming from Fort Benning sirs

XO_Toorain says:
::reading his console::CO:Sir, I'm reading an energ-sir, recomment immediate break off

OPS_Anderson says:
CO: Captain, there was a massive energy surge coming from under the ground of the planet

CTO_Black says:
TO: Cause...?

MO_Kyst says:
CTO: That's the hive!

Host CO_Cerdan says:
OPS: Backup power to shields.

XO_Toorain says:
CO:Sir, I think we're being herded here, recommend break off

TO_Knight says:
CTO: Unknown sir...it started the moment we targeted and fired at the Warbird

Host CO_Cerdan says:
XO: Agreed, FCO: Evasives

CTO_Black says:
CO: Sir....if we bombard the hive...the other may fall....

MO_Kyst says:
CTO: I'll bet that the hive is under the fort.  That is where the energy is coming from.

Host CO_Cerdan says:
CTO: Noted

OPS_Anderson says:
::reroutes power to shields:: CO: Aye Aye

Host Bishop says:
ACTION:The Khufu is struck amidships by a massive cannon blast,  when the fire dies, all that is left is a shattered hulk

FCO-Exeter says:
CO:Aye,sir evasive maneuvers ::;starts first cyclus of evasive maneuvers::

XO_Toorain says:
