Stardate 10208.24  Captain's Log:: While we have briefly searched the surface I am troubled by the fact that we have found very little evidence of the whereabouts of the planets inhabitants.  I have requested additional gravity belts so that we may be on the surface longer and find out what has happened so we may leave this place as soon as possible...

@OPS: No, nothing to striking, except for a very dense field in front of us. We should be able to get through however.
CTO_Ens_Ferdinant says:
<should>
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
CO: It seems that the Bra’ken were digging an unknown alloy...I also found some strange language written on the walls.  The tricorder can't seem to translate it, I believe the Nighthawk's computer would be better

FCO_Ens_Keown says:
CSO:  No, nothing interesting, just lost track of time and my belt ran out of power.
CEO_Lt_Monroe says:
XO: But I am alright.
Host CO_West says:
XO: Have you sent that data to the Nighthawk yet?
CSO_LtCmdr_Matisse says:

CSO_LtCmdr_Matisse says:
CEO: good good.., thanks for watching ..,
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@COM: CO: Captain, we are approaching your location, we should be there in about five minutes.
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
CO: Well Captain...I'd like to find out what kind of alloy they were digging as well as translate this alien language.  It might be the reason the settlers left

XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
CO: I'd like to take Lieutenant Monroe back to the mines and get his input about the alloy
CEO_Lt_Monroe says:
CSO: Of course it is
Host CO_West says:
XO: as soon as our supplies arrive, have the CMO look at Mr. Monroe’s nose and check Mrs. Monroe out for her motion sickness and then get the crew assigned, we will head back to the mines.
CSO_LtCmdr_Matisse says:
CEO: are you ok....your acting a bit...odd ::Not really sure what to say to him::
CTO_Ens_Ferdinant says:
@OPS: Scans indicate the landing site is clear. Only vegetation and animal life to be expected.
Host CO_West says:
::Turning her chair toward a computer console, she begins to input data  for later::
CEO_Lt_Monroe says:
CSO: No I perfectly fine thanks for asking.
CSO_LtCmdr_Matisse says:
CO: the doctor doesn't need to look at me, I’m fine now
CTO_Ens_Ferdinant says:
@All: We should find the other shuttle near a two-story building.
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@ CTO: I believe I see the building they told us about its coming into view now.
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
::can feel the tension in the room:: CSO: Cmdr...may I see you a second? ::motions outside the shuttle::
CSO_LtCmdr_Matisse says:

FCO_Ens_Keown says:
::Walks back to the group.::

FCO_Ens_Keown says:

::Wrinkles his nose:: CMO: Good.  XO: I am ready, sir. When are we off to see the sights again?

Host CO_West says:
FCO: Continue to keep the comm links open and OPS, monitor the area for incoming.

Host CO_West says:
::Notices CSO Standing next to her, Smiles::  CSO: are you feeling better?
Host Biishe says:
Scenery:  The mines are not far from main town.  Between them is basically grasslands, the grasses gently blowing in the breeze.  The sun is low in the sky.  The sounds of birds are heard singing their various songs.
CEO_Lt_Monroe says:
::Walks out the shuttle:: XO: Right behind you.
CMO_Ens_Bluestine says:
::glances at the CSO::   CO: She should be fine, Ma'am.... I will know more once we get back to a place with better medical facilities..

Self: damn you.... ::Walks beside the CO::
CEO_Lt_Monroe says:
XO: Yeah.  ::Continues walking::
Host CO_West says:

CTO_Ens_Ferdinant says:
::Starts moving with the group, watching around carefully, not knowing what to expect::
CMO_Ens_Bluestine says:
::moving along he observes the surroundings and keeping his medical tricorder on full scans::
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
CO: I have Captain...just another sign that they disappeared without struggle
CEO_Lt_Monroe says:
::Takes a glance at Joey, then stares up ahead::
Host CO_West says:
XO: This means that whenever cause the people to leave it was not environmental, of course because the atmosphere is still breathable, but perhaps they were afraid to stay here any longer?
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
::with a sigh, starts monitoring the AT's progress and the COMM with the 'hawk.::
Host Biishe says:
Scenery: As they approach the mining area, they head for one of the larger mines from which the XO had picked up week energy signals.  It is dark inside.
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
:: Continues scanning ::
CSO_LtCmdr_Matisse says:
::Turns on her flash light, and gets out her tricorder, and starts scanning::
Host CO_West says:
::Stepping toward mine opening::
CTO_Ens_Ferdinant says:
::As he approaches the large mining facility, and notices it's dark inside, he turns on his wrist mounted flashlights::
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
::turns on his flashlight::  CO: Afraid of what though....
CMO_Ens_Bluestine says:
::glancing at the XO he replies while nodding at the sensor readings::  XO: No abnormal medical readings so far, Commander...
Host CO_West says:
::Turns on wrist light::
Host CO_West says:
CEO: Have you scanned the mine entrance for any signs of tremors or previous quakes?
CSO_LtCmdr_Matisse says:
CO: so what exactly am i looking for ma'am ::Looks at the scans::
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
::nods at the CMO:: CMO: Let me know if you do find anything...
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
::programs the computer to warn him of any change in the COMM with the 'hawk or if anything happens to the AT.  Sits back in his chair and puts his feet up on the OPS station's seat.::

CMO_Ens_Bluestine says:
XO: Understood, Commander...  ::observes the senior staff members, one at a time, making some mental notes to add to his first report to Starfleet::
Host CO_West says:
XO: Where did you find the language symbols?
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
::Looks oddly at CSO as his tricorder picks up an extra life sign in her vicinity, says nothing::
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
::points further into the mine::  CO: Just a little further, it was right next to the alloy
Host CO_West says:
::Walks further into the mine shaft, looking at the walls carefully::
CSO_LtCmdr_Matisse says:
CO: the only thing I’m getting is some faint energy traces, somewhere deep in the planet
Host Biishe says:
SCENERY:  As they enter into the mine, the light from the various torches glance off a metal arch embedded into the walls of the mine.  The alloy is made up of the minerals of this planet, but in a unique combination never used before.  It is highly decorated with words of some unknown language flowing along it.
CTO_Ens_Ferdinant says:
::Moves his flashlight around a little to see what's coming next::
CEO_Lt_Monroe says:
CO: Stable ground, Captain.
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
All: Here it is.... ::points to the walls::
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
::Directs scan downward, into the mine::  All: Interesting, if faint energy readings Captain.
Host CO_West says:
CEO: Acknowledged!
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
::from time to time, checks the scans.::
CTO_Ens_Ferdinant says:
::Sees the metal arch in the wall, and looks at it as if it was a ghost::
Host CO_West says:
::Looks at walls::
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
OPS: I detected them earlier, but they were too deep for me to explore.  If you have any ideas on what it is?
Host CO_West says:
::Shinning lights at language symbols staring ::
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
XO: None at this time, Sir
Host Biishe says:
ACTION:  A creature pokes his nose into the shuttle, wiggling it from side to side as its long ears twitch.::
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
::nods his head at OPS::
FCO_Ens_Keown says:

Host CO_West says:

CMO_Ens_Bluestine says:
::quietly moves along, wondering what this mine will bring to them::  Self: Great, first assignment and already in some unsecured mine with a pregnant CSO that doesn't want to know it....why me ?
Host Biishe says:
Scenery:  From the Arch, a path can be seen leading down into the earth.  It is relatively steep.  Near the path are the signs of old mining tracks.
CEO_Lt_Monroe says:
::Bumps into Joey:: CSO: Excuse me.
