Host Sherydon says:
CO:This is all very interesting but we really don't have time, now if we can sit down and discuss what you need to know...

CEO_Jah`d says:
@<Sci>CEO: Sir, the Faction ship is holding position on the edge of transporter range. She shows no sign of activity sir...

Host XO_Sheridan says:

Host CO_Cerdan says:

Host Sherydon says:
CO:Fine we can do this standing... you want the long version or the short one?

CEO_Jah`d says:
@Sci: Keep a constant watch on the Faction vessel. Tac: Begin full sweeps for any transphase rifts and keep on full yellow alert.

CIV_Captain_Turner says:
All: Why don't we all just sit down and talk. Nice and calm.

Host CO_Cerdan says:
Sherydon: A quick version for now, so I can tell if you still pose a threat to this ship

OPS_Anderson says:
::continues to pace back and forth reading a padd wondering when they will be able to transfer to the Nighthawk::

Host Sherydon says:
CO:No, I have in fact eliminated the single largest threat to this ship at the moment

Host XO_Sheridan says:

@::Paces around as the junior Nighthawk staff goes about their work:: Ops: Try hailing the Faction vessel again...::Turns to the Sci officer:: Sci: ...and run full scans on that ship, I want to know how many life signs there are aboard it.

Host Sherydon says:
CO:That is what we need to discuss.

Host Sherydon says:
CO:Perhaps we could speak in your ready room?

Host CO_Cerdan says:
Sherydon : Then , will you accompany me to the Bridge?

CTO_Black says:

Host CO_Cerdan says:
CIV: Capt. I could use you too after your checked out

CEO_Jah`d says:
@<Sci>CEO: Commander, I am detecting life signs aboard the Faction vessel but I am unable to isolate any separate signatures due to interference and the distance between us and the other vessel sir.

OPS_Anderson says:
::smiles as he hears Brian's response::

Host CO_Cerdan says:
::Holsters his weapon but keeps an eye on his Guest::

Host CO_Cerdan says:
Sherydon: I'm sure you know the way. ::Gestures to the door::

CTO_Black says:
::after a minute or so the Turbo Lift reaches the bridge and he steps out as the TL doors open, looking around with a faint smile and walks to his tactical console::

Host XO_Sheridan says:
CO: Be careful sir.....I still would like security outside the ready room at least.

CIV_Captain_Turner says:
::Smiles at the XO:: CO: Aye Captain.

OPS_Anderson says:
CSO: Any thing new Lieutenant?

Host Sherydon says:
CO:Also I must apologize for the actions of my associates... we had to be sure that you were who you claimed to be and weren’t influenced by The Faction in some artificial way.

CEO_Jah`d says:
@::Stops pacing and sits down in he command chair gazing out at the image of the stars:: Self: Hmmm, what should I do Jah`d, C’mon you're a symbiont, give me some sort of advice...

CSO_Matisse says:
OPS: Nothing new here sir

Host CO_Cerdan says:
::Turns to the XO, and places hand on Phaser as he exits::

CIV_Captain_Turner says:
CO: Captain I actually feel fine. ::Follows Captain Cerdan::

OPS_Anderson says:
CSO: thank you Lieutenant....

Host XO_Sheridan says:
::gets the message loud and clear. No security team::

Host CO_Cerdan says:

Host CO_Cerdan says:
Computer: Deck one, Bridge.

Host XO_Sheridan says:

CIV_Captain_Turner says:
::Enters the TL::

OPS_Anderson says:
::steps back to let Brian answer Commander Sheridan::

CTO_Black says:
::smiles::  OPS: Indeed...you said what I was thinking.. ::grins and abruptly ends as he hears the XO's Comm::  *XO*: Black here, Ma'am..

Host XO_Sheridan says:
*CTO*: The Captain and Mr. Turner are heading for the ready room with a "guest". Please keep an eye on them from a discrete distance if you get my meaning?

CTO_Black says:
::frowns a little::  *XO*: Aye Ma'am... any other info relevant info that guest, Ma'am...?

CEO_Jah`d says:
@::Thinks to himself in the command chair:: Conn.: Ensign, would it be possible for you to close some of that distance between the Faction vessel and ourselves? Maybe on a patrol route, or something along those lines?

Host CO_Cerdan says:
::Begins to step out as doors open::

Host Sherydon says:
CO:So how is Colonel MacFarlane? I trust he was anxious to discover what was on those chips.

OPS_Anderson says:
::nods to the Captain as he steps out of the Turbo Lift::

CSO_Matisse says:
::Watches as they get out of the TL::

Host CO_Cerdan says:
Sherydon: Yes, he has deciphered them

CTO_Black says:
::turns to face the Turbo Lift as he hears the familiar sound of opening doors::

CIV_Captain_Turner says:

CIV_Captain_Turner says:
::Enters the RR::

Host XO_Sheridan says:
::finally persuades the doctor that she's fine and gets released, heading for the turbolift::

CEO_Jah`d says:
@<Conn>CEO: It is possible sir, I can activate a patrol route for the Nighthawk which will bring us 68% closer to the Faction vessel sir. I can't risk much more...

CTO_Black says:
::not completely assured by the CO's response:: CO: Aye, Captain...

Host XO_Sheridan says:
::enters the TL and calls for the bridge::

OPS_Anderson says:
CO: Same as before Captain...we are at yellow and running scans of the surrounding space.  Is there anything else you would like us to do?

Host Sherydon says:
::sits in front of the CO's desk and begins to drum her fingers:: CIV:So how long have you been part of your intelligence group?

Host CO_Cerdan says:
OPS: What’s the status on that Faction ship?

CTO_Black says:
::scans the Faction Ship again to retain an scan update::

CIV_Captain_Turner says:
Sherydon: Too long. Now I have a question for you.

CEO_Jah`d says:
@Conn.: Activate the patrol...Sci: Begin surface scans on the Faction vessel, try to identify any separate life signs::

OPS_Anderson says:
CO: It is just sitting there Captain...no change

CSO_Matisse says:
::Does a few scans:

OPS_Anderson says:
CO: Commander Jah'd will inform us of any changes I'm sure

Host XO_Sheridan says:
::enters the bridge area and moves closer to the Captain and Mr. Anderson:: CO: I've been cleared for duty. Reporting as ordered sir.

Host Sherydon says:
ACTION:The ship begins to move in an elliptical pattern, maintaining its current distance from both the Nighthawk and the Cochrane.

Doug has joined the conversation.

OPS_Anderson says:
XO: No ma'am...every thing ok...I'm hailing the Nighthawk to get a report on the Faction vessel

CO:Sub_Commander Tafar Sherydon

Host XO_Sheridan says:

CSO_Matisse says:
XO: Yes ma'am ::Walks over to the XO::

CIV_Captain_Turner says:
::Tightens grip on phaser::

CEO_Jah`d says:
COMM: Cochrane: None yet Chris. We've detected life signs aboard the vessel and are trying to identify any possible interference blocking our scans. I'll report back momentarily...

CIV_Captain_Turner says:
Sherydon: You ARE Romulan!

CIV_Captain_Turner says:
CO: Captain?

Host CO_Cerdan says:
::Tries not to look surprised::

CEO_Jah`d says:

OPS_Anderson says:
COMM: Nighthawk: Understood Korin...keep in touch

Host XO_Sheridan says:

OPS_Anderson says:
XO: No change with the faction vessel ma'am

Host Sherydon says:
CO:Yes they are my compatriots, they were last ordered to keep their distance in case things went south

Host CO_Cerdan says:
::Pauses to think::

Host XO_Sheridan says:
OPS: Acknowledged Mr. Anderson...thank you.

Host Sherydon says:
CIV:Half Romulan actually

CEO_Jah`d says:
::Turns to the Ops and Conn. officers:: Ops/Conn.: Prepare an engine burst to get us as close to the faction vessel as possible. I want Ops on full alert, prepare tractor beams and co-ordinate with engineering to prevent any possible damage done by the faction vessel, understood?

OPS_Anderson says:
::nods to the XO and turns back around::

CSO_Matisse says:
::Whispers:: XO: Sure,

CIV_Captain_Turner says:
::Listens to Sherydon::

Host CO_Cerdan says:
Sherydon: Can you communicate with them?

Host XO_Sheridan says:
CSO: Fine, let's say 1900hrs, in the mess hall?

Host Sherydon says:
CO:On a coded frequency yes

CTO_Black says:
::observes the bridge and tries to imagine what this Sheridan look-a-like is doing on the Cochrane::

CEO_Jah`d says:
@<Ops/Conn>CEO: Understood sir. ::They both go to work::

Host CO_Cerdan says:
Sherydon: Tell me about Biship?

CEO_Jah`d says:
@::Sits down in Tray's chair and sends signals to sickbay and engineering in the unfortunate event that the faction ship decides to open fire:: Sci: Prepare for full scans, I want to know what's going on over there...

CTO_Black says:
::turns to the XO::  XO: Ma'am...seeing that I have little information about our new guest...could you enlighten me on her...?

Host Sherydon says:
CO:Well as you know, his faction created the Grob, originally they were the perfect guardians,  no enemy dared confront the faction

Host XO_Sheridan says:
:;motions the CTO over to her chair::

CSO_Matisse says:
Self: I'm sure this is going to be about Lanz...::Sits down and thinks::

CEO_Jah`d says:
@Hawk Staff: Everyone ready?

CEO_Jah`d says:
@<Staff>CEO: Aye sir...::Several think that Jah`d is being foolish, but don't dare voice their opinions against him. They'd rather take their opinions to the XO upon her return::

Host CO_Cerdan says:
Sherydon: And where does your Faction fit into this

Host Sherydon says:
CO:Then, once their enemies were defeated, there was a dispute over what to do with them, some wanted to keep them around, enhance them and begin a direct assault on the other races of the quadrant, and others, mostly my group wanted them shut down, most of us opposed their creation from the start

CTO_Black says:
::taps his console lightly and heads over to the XO's chair::

Host XO_Sheridan says:
CTO: Brian, we don't know that much about her at this point,, but she appears to be the woman who killed Commodore Biship.

CEO_Jah`d says:
@::Knows that Cerdan and Jockey will kill him for this, but believes it's the only way to find out what's going on the faction right now:: Conn: Activate engines...

Host XO_Sheridan says:
CTO: As you can she, she does look a bit like me.

OPS_Anderson says:
XO: Ma'am  the Nighthawk seems to be moving at impulse power

Host CO_Cerdan says:
Sherydon: What was Biship trying to do?

Host XO_Sheridan says:
OPS: On screen

Host Sherydon says:
ACTION:The Nighthawk quickly jumps within a few hundred meters of the ship, the ship, caught off guard fires several defensive shots and tries to jump to transphase.

OPS_Anderson says:

CTO_Black says:
XO: Hhhhmmm...  ::thinks for a moment::  Yes.. she looks indeed a bit like you, I wonder what her motives where...  ::steps back as the screen flashes on and displays the Hawk::

Host Sherydon says:
CO:I must, their orders if they run are to bring back our fleet to eradicate the current threat...

CEO_Jah`d says:
COMM: Cochrane: Commander, with all due respect, after Captain Cerdan was abduct, we can't take many chances with idle ships who refuse to answer hails or identify themselves...

Host CO_Cerdan says:
CIV: Take the Helm, we may need to move fast

CTO_Black says:
