Stardate 10210.05  Captains Log::  While XO Anderson has  been given a special mission by Captain red of starbase 78, I am going to check out our new home base and get our new mission orders from Admiral Harlan.
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
First Officers Log, the FCO, CMO, CTO and I are currently in route to a set of coordinates given to us by Admiral Harlan.  We are under orders to covertly rescue a Lt.Cmdr  Winter who has been taken hostage by some pirates in the sector...

@::Stands in OPS, reviewing the results of diagnostic tests::
CTO_Ens_Jackson says:
::Inside shuttle, going over the Tactical console once again::
Host CO_West says:
::Walking into Ops, sees OPS Lessing:
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
FCO: What is our ETA?
Host CO_West says:
@OPS:  So, I see you've gotten acquainted with the station...ah, where can I find Captain Red at this time?
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@::Concentrates on reports - making sure he reads them correctly::
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
::At the shuttle's helm.::  XO:  10 minutes, sir.  Shall I engage the cloaking device?
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@CO: I am not entirely sure Ma'am - I saw him heading for the Recreation facility earlier.
Host CO_West says:
@::Looking around Ops like she is in confused, but not really::
CMO_Bluestine says:
::looks around the shuttle wondering what will happen next. watching his console's readouts::
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
FCO: Yes engage the cloaking device...when we are at the coordinates perform some passive scans of the sector
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
XO:  Aye.  ::Engages the cloaking device.::
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@:: Noticing the CO's confusion:: CO: I thought you had been here before.
Host CO_West says:
@OPS:  Good, Good.  It seems a little strange not going on a mission for a change, wouldn't you say?
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
::turns around to see the CTO and CMO::  CMO/CTO: How are you doing gentlemen?
Host Adm_Harlan says:
Scenery:  Everything within range of the shuttle is quiet... very quiet...
CTO_Ens_Jackson says:
XO: Well, just awaiting what's coming. But everything seems clear so far.
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@CO: Definitely, although there is so much work to do, it is a bit of a relief to have the ship left to my tender mercies.
Host CO_West says:
@OPS:  No, I have never been inside before, I was actually on another ship in my capacity as a counselor, when we came here but I never got off the ship.
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@CO: Ah, yes I had forgotten you were a counselor once.  Tell me, do you ever lose the knack?
CTO_Ens_Jackson says:
::Notices a faint signal in front of them while scanning:: XO: Sir, I'm picking up something right ahead. It's a very faint signal, I can't really tell you what it is.
CMO_Bluestine says:
::nods at the XO::  CMO: Doing good, Sir.. in process of reviewing the medical profile from Lieutenant Commander Winters...
Host CO_West says:
@OPS:  Well,  you know,  you never really do.  I find my self looking at thing from a counselors perspective quite often.
Host Adm_Harlan says:
*CO*:  This is Admiral Harlan.  I understand you are short your staff, but if you are available in about 5 minutes, we can have a preview talk... mostly to get your opinion.
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
::nods at both the CMO and CTO::  CTO: Can you pick up any dimensions?
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@CO: I have been thinking of speaking to a counselor recently, but we don't have one onboard at the moment.
CTO_Ens_Jackson says:
XO: No sir, it's barely visible on sensors.
Host Adm_Harlan says:
Scenery:  lying in space, is a small container, 0.5 meter by .25 meters.
Host CO_West says:
@OPS: Sometimes I do get a bit analytical and try not to be to the point, but then counselors are supposed to be very objective.
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
::nods:: CTO: Ok...  ::turns around to shout at the FCO::  FCO: Plot a course around the object, we take the chance that it could detect our approach
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@CO: That's what I need, someone who can see things from a point of view that is not my own.
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
<can't take>
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
XO:  Sir, the object is exactly at the coordinates we were given.
Host CO_West says:
@OPS: I have thought of having a counselor on board, sometimes, but we usually don't need one on our missions, but feel free to talk to one while we are here...
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
::raises an eyebrow:: FCO: Exactly?  Stay on course Ensign...
Host CO_West says:
@::Hears Admiral Harlan's message::
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@CO: I may very well do that. But, you were looking for Captain Red?
CTO_Ens_Jackson says:
::Starts a scan of the object::
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
::nods at the XO.::
Host CO_West says:
@::Taps comm badge::  Admiral Harlan, Where can I meet you, Sir?
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@*CO*:  Captain Red should be joining you shortly, he will bring you.
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@CO: Shall I join you, Ma'am.
CTO_Ens_Jackson says:
::Sensor readings come in:: XO: Sir, scans indicate light shielding. And seen by how this object showed up on sensors, we would never have found it without these coordinates.
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
::Slows to impulse as they near the coordinates.::
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
::hears the CTO:: Self: hmmm...that makes me feel a little better  CTO: Can we beam it aboard?
Host CO_West says:
@*Admiral*: Sir, I am in Ops, I will meet Captain Red here.
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@*CO*: Acknowledged.
Host CO_West says:
@OPS: Yes, since you are the only one here you can join us, unless it turns out that the meeting is for my ears only, of course.
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@CO: Of course, If it turns out that way, I can always go and find something else to do.
CTO_Ens_Jackson says:
::Thinks a moment:: XO: I believe we can.
Host CO_West says:
@::drums her fingers across a console top waiting for Capt. Red to arrive::
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
XO/CTO:  Should we?  It could be a trap.
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
::nods his head and begins moving towards the back of the shuttle:: CTO: Do so then...
Host CO_West says:
@OPS:  since you have been with The Nighthawk, how have you enjoyed your assignment?
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@<Capt. Red> ::As the TL doors open, sees West and holds the doors open::  CO:  Captain, if you and your officer would join me please?
CTO_Ens_Jackson says:
XO/FCO: I don't think it's a trap. We got these coordinates from Admiral Harlan, I think the admiral intended us to come along this container of some sort.
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
FCO: I have the same feeling...but it was located at the exact coordinates we were given, but just to be on the safe side erect a force field around it
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@::Nods, smiles at captain Red and follows::
Host CO_West says:
@::Turns to see Capt. Red just as the TL doors open::
CTO_Ens_Jackson says:
XO: Aye sir, initiating force field. ::Taps console to erect force field::
Host Adm_Harlan says:
ACTION:  A force field is erected, much stronger then expected.
CTO_Ens_Jackson says:
XO: Initiating transport. ::Starts the transport::
Host CO_West says:
@Capt. Red: Right away.  ::Walks into the TL::
Host Adm_Harlan says:
ACTION:  A large black box beams into the contained area.
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@<Capt Red> CO:  Thank you.  Has your emergency been taken care of?
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
::walks around the contained area:: CMO: Doc...would you do a scan of the box for me
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@Capt. Red: I am Ens. Lessing, Sir.
CTO_Ens_Jackson says:
XO: Sir, transporter log shows the box is not armed. There's an electronic device inside, and a lot of other unidentified items.
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
::turns to everyone:: All: Any ideas on what it does?
Host CO_West says:
@Capt. Red: It is good to meet with you.  ::extending her hand::
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
::motions for the FCO to drop the force field::
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@<Capt Red> ::Accepts the hand with a small::  CO: And you.  Welcome to our ranks out in the middle of nowhere.
CTO_Ens_Jackson says:
XO: Most logical idea would be that it's some kind of masking device, to make it less visible on sensors. But I'm only guessing here.
Host CO_West says:
@Captain:  This is my OPS officer Ens. Lessing.
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@<Capt Red> ::Nods in greeting::  OPS:  Welcome to the station.
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@::Shakes Capt. Red's Hand back::
Host CO_West says:
@Captain: oh, I think the middle of nowhere can be anywhere you want it to be.
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
CTO:  I think he wants you to drop the force field.
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
XO:  Maybe it contains a ransom note...
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@<Capt Red> CO/OPS:  And find peace as well... sometimes.  ::Activates the TL::
Host CO_West says:
@Captain: I apologize for being detained.  I understand that my crew is on a special rescue mission?
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
XO:  They masked it so no one else would find it.
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
::walks over to the box and starts to open it::
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@<Capt Red> ::Frowns::  CO:  Yes, they are.  And hopefully they will be back in the next few hours.
CTO_Ens_Jackson says:
FCO: Oh, yes, I'm sorry, was thinking about the possible goal of this device. ::Switches off the force field::
Host Adm_Harlan says:
Scenery:  Inside the container, is a bunch of trash that reeks and a padd.
Host CO_West says:
@::Studying the Tall Klingon::
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@<Capt Red> ::As the TL comes to a stop, he leads them off onto a quiet deck and towards the arboretum.::
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
::opens the box and looks inside::
CTO_Ens_Jackson says:
::Walks over to the XO, and looks into the box::
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@::Remains silent, waiting for someone to take the lead::
Host CO_West says:
@::Steps off the TL and tries to keep up with the large strides of Captain Red::
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@::Follows the pair of Captains::
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@<Capt Red> CO/OPS:  The admiral never quite stops missing her native land.  So to keep her around more often, we compromise.  ::Smiles as he leads them to the back of the garden area and into a comfortable but not opulent office.::
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
::catches the trash's smell.::  Ack!  Didn't see that coming.
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
::holds his breath and pulls out the padd and activates it::
Host CO_West says:
@::Admiring the beautiful garden::  Captain: Who does these, beautiful arrangements?
CTO_Ens_Jackson says:
::Closes his nose with his fingers::
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@::Stands as her doors  open and Red leads in to officers.  Steps from her desk with an outreach of hand.::  CO:  To all who can enjoy their beauty.  Please, take a seat.  Waves them over to a table near the viewing glass.::
Host Adm_Harlan says:
ACTION: From the padd comes a voice full of disdain:  Star Jerks, come to the following coordinates if you dare.  Come alone fool.   His time is about up… and so is yours.
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
XO:  Sir, permission to beam it off?
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@::Takes a seat, looks at the assembled staff expectantly::
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
FCO: Granted!  ::steps away from the container::
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
::locks onto the box and beams it off the shuttle.::
Host CO_West says:
@::Steps into the room and walks to the table, seeing the admiral stand and extends her hand:
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@<CO Red> ::Takes his place not far behind the admirals chair, leaning against the wall, listening.::
CTO_Ens_Jackson says:
::Hears the disdained voice::
Host CO_West says:
@Admiral: A pleasure!
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
::hands the padd to the CTO:: CTO: Bring those coordinates up on the star chart let me see it!  ::lets out a deep exhale::
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@CO:  As is mine.  May I get either of you something to drink?
CTO_Ens_Jackson says:
XO: Aye sir. ::Inserts the coordinates into the star chart:: XO: Here you go, sir. ::Points to the location of the coordinates::
Host CO_West says:
@Admiral:  Iced tea, if you don't mind.  Anything for you Ens.?
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
::accesses the environmental controls and speeds up the air replacement until the smell is gone, the returns it to normal.::
Host CO_West says:
@::Taking her seat::
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@CO: Lemon Tea would be just the ticket.
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
::looks over the location of the coordinates...analyzing them and formulating a plan::
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@::Nods and gets the order herself, adding something for Red and herself.::
Host CO_West says:
@::nods::
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@CO:  The joys of replicator...  however, it looses something in the process.  ::Returns with the drinks and passes them around.::
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
::looks at the coordinates the CTO has just entered into the computer.::
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
FCO: Mister Keown...come to these coordinates!  ::points to a set of coordinates 45 degrees from the coordinates the voice gave him::
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
XO:  Looks like an old mining planet...
Host CO_West says:
@::Taking the Tea Glass and taking a quick sip::  Admiral: I agree, there is nothing like steeping a pot of tea one's self.
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@:: Feels mildly in awe of the assembled officers::
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
::Sets a course for the new coordinates.::  XO:  Aye, course set.
Host Adm_Harlan says:
::Takes her seat::  All:  Now, I would rather have all the staff here, but as that is not possible, perhaps we can get a feeling of things.
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@::Nods, pays attention::
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
FCO: Engage... ::looks at the CTO:: CTO: Come with me...let's see what else this shuttle has!  ::starts looking in the back of the shuttle anything, but especially an EVA suit::
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
::Engages at warp 5.::  XO:  ETA is 15 minutes
Host CO_West says:
@Admiral: I understand that my crew has  embarked on a bit of a rescue mission, care to elaborate in the reason Lt Cmdr Winter is being held up, so to speak?
CTO_Ens_Jackson says:
::follows the XO:: XO: What exactly are you looking for?
Host Adm_Harlan says:
ALL:  He has gone on a rescue mission that is tied to my topic.  It has been debated about the need of a small group of federation officers to use in various missions that require more... delicate hands.  I have been reviewing various ships and the Nighthawk appears to be the ideal ship for what we have in mind.  And some of her crew as well.
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
CTO: I need 2 EVA suits and a couple of phaser rifles....  ::rummages through the closets of the shuttle::
Host CO_West says:
@::Nodding, listening::
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@Adm_Harlan: This begins to sound like rescue and recovery missions, with a bit of covert ops thrown in for good measure. ::Smiles lopsidedly::
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@OPS:  Exactly.
CTO_Ens_Jackson says:
XO: Understood sir. ::Looks around to find the weapons locker::
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
::Accesses information on the planet they are heading to.::  XO:  Looks like it has only one major city...  looks pretty bad.
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@Adm_Harlan: I don't want to speak out of turn, but I think the crew would rise tot he challenge.
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@CO:  The question for you, before I continue any further, is whether or not this would be up your ally.  If you say it is not, then things are done here and I will assign you a different set of orders.  If you are interested in proceeding, then we will continue along this vein.
CTO_Ens_Jackson says:
::Finds it, and walks over to it. Opens the locker, and takes some phaser rifles:: XO: Here you go, sir.
Host CO_West says:
@Admiral:  Short, Covert Ops missions.  Any experimental equipment involved, sir?
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
::spots a pair of EVA suits and set of transport enhancers:: Out load: Perfect...  ::brings them out into the open::
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@::Chuckles::  CO:  My pride and joy, which your first officer now has.
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
::smiles:: FCO: That's good...Mr. Keown have the computer pilot the shuttle the rest of the way, I need to discuss the next stage in rescue mission with everyone
Host CO_West says:
@Admiral:  I think my crew would jump at the bit to be a part of something like this.  They have been doing some specialized training anyway, we have had a couple of rather scary moments and don't want to ever be caught short again, if you know what I mean, sir.
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
XO:  Aye.  ::Engages auto-pilot and stands.  Raises an eyebrow at the XO.::  Er...  sir, the planet has a breathable atmosphere...
Host CO_West says:
@::Turning slightly, looking at OPS and then back at the Admiral::
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
FCO: Understood...
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@CO: Yes I do.  Now, part of the problem with this project, is you will be in what is called the 'Grey area'.
Host CO_West says:
@Admiral:  Gray area?  meaning on a need to know basis?
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@::Notices the CO's Glance, decides to keep quiet for a bit::
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
::walks to the shuttle's back.::
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@CO/OPS:  More along the line, that you are not SFI, yet you could get orders from them, through me, yet you are still part of Starfleet command and can receive orders from them.  Sometimes,  you might have two sets of directives.  One thing to remember.  All orders of intelligent nature come to you from me or Red NO one else.  I must stress that.
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
ALL: Ensign Jackson ever hear of a paratrooper?  You and the Doctor will be covertly dropped outside the city about 1/2 kilometer or so away.  You will sneak into the city with the transport enhancers and retrieve Lt.Cmdr Winter.  The FCO and I will beam you both back aboard.
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@:: Nods in understanding :: Adm_Harlan: What would happen if the two directives conflicted?
Host Adm_Harlan says:
Scenery:  At the back of the shuttle is a small medical set up, as well as other equipment and buttons unknown.
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
FCO: Mister Keown...this plan is going to take some pretty fancy flying from you, I hope you are up to the challenge.  I will man the Tactical station...we will have to cause enough trouble down in the city for the CTO and CMO to get the Cmdr....Any questions?
Host CO_West says:
@::Placing hand on chin, rubbing it::  
Host CO_West says:
@ Admiral:  I see.  And when Do I expect to be given our first set of orders?
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
XO:  Sir...  are you planning on having attack the city from the shuttle?
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@OPS:  If they ever conflict, you will have to make a decision.  Usually, they will not conflict.  You will just need to handle both.  For that matter, you will probably need a special 'task' force to deal with one issue while the ship continues with its other set of orders.
CTO_Ens_Jackson says:
XO: Sir, I actually did some Para jumping back at the academy. More like a hobby. Don't think it's a problem. As for questions, there are none from my side.
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@Adm_Harlan: I understand, Sir.
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
FCO: Pretty ambitious huh?  ::smiles::
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@CO:  The orders are awaiting the arrival of your first officer bringing back one of our operatives.
Host CO_West says:
@Admiral: Do you suggest any particular area of Intel training, sir?
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
::turns to the CTO and CMO:: CTO/CMO: Suit up...we'll find the coordinates of our Commander before you jump
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
::not sure that's the word he'd use...::  XO:  I don't know sir...  most of the planet's population are ruffians, we might be putting the CMO and CTO at great risk...
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@CO:  Again, this is not SFI.  If it were, we would not require you.  However, your crew, especially your FCO, will be given extra training to better prepare yourselves.  Your FCO, will probably need to be taken off shift for awhile so that he can train in the shuttle.  And I must suggest one or two others for back up in case anything happens to your FCO.
CTO_Ens_Jackson says:
XO: What exactly do you expect us to wear, sir?
Host CO_West says:
@Admiral: I would like a chance to discuss this subject with my First Officer, however I see no reason why I cannot accept these  orders. 
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
FCO: Scan the city for the Commander Winter's bio-signature....risk is what is all about Ensign!  ::turns to the CTO:: CTO: The EVA suits...you'll be jumping out the shuttle why'll were still in space, they'd detect us if we went into the atmosphere
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
XO:  Sir, can I make a suggestion?
Host CO_West says:
@ ::Nodding::
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@CO:  Of course.  Which is why I would have liked you all to be here.  Meanwhile, while you ponder, please, enjoy your time at the station.  We offer various amenities to help our starships get the most out of so limited time.
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
FCO: Of course...
Host CO_West says:
@::gulping the rest of her Iced Tea down::
CTO_Ens_Jackson says:
XO: So, sir, what you mean is we're going to perform a High Altitude, Low Opening jump? Very High altitude in this case. ::Smiles::
Host CO_West says:
@::Standing and offering her hand to Admiral Harlan::
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
CTO: You up to it or would you rather stay onboard the shuttle?  Your call...
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@::Drinks the last of his Tea, thinking about the turn his career has taken::
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
XO:  How about we replicate civilian clothing appropriate for that place, land the shuttle away from the city and go in and have a look incognito?  We'd probably be noticed, but people in such places tend not to ask questions.
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@::Stands and returns the shake::
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@<Capt Red> ::Pushes off the wall to join the group.::
Host CO_West says:
@Admiral:: We will be ready when called, sir!::
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@::Stands, smiling and inclines his head towards the admiral, then offers his hand::
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@CO/OPS:  Thank you...
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@Admiral: We all will, I am sure.
CTO_Ens_Jackson says:
XO: I'd be glad to go, sir. I did this kind of jump once in a holodeck. Simulating some jump during World War 2, several hundred years ago. I'm up to it, I think.
Host CO_West says:
@::Looks up again at the Tall Klingon, who says hardly anything.  Offers her hand again::
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@::Shakes OPS hands::  OPS:  Enjoy your stay.
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@Admiral: Thank you Sir, I will.
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@<Capt. Red> ::Shakes the captains hand:: CO:  If you need me or the admiral, just ask operations, they usually know.
Host CO_West says:
@Captain:  ::Nods::
Host CO_West says:
@Admiral/CO: Thank you.  I will take a short tour of the station with Ens. Lessing.
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@ ::She and Red guide the two to the door::  All:  Check out the flowering reorients on your way out.  They are lovely now.
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
FCO: I see your point...but they would surely detect us on the way down, and they more than most likely have a force field around the Commander.  I will understand if you feel the need to object to this plan, but I must request that you stay at your post.  You are the best pilot I've got, and I'm going to need you
Host CO_West says:
@::Admiring the Garden as she walks to the TL with OPS behind her::
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
XO:  Sir, they wouldn't detect us if we stayed cloaked and entered the atmosphere on the other side of the planet...
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
::smiles as he can see the excitement of his Chief Tactical Officer::  CTO: Good.. now suit up you drop in 20 minutes
Host Adm_Harlan says:
::Turns to Red::  Capt:  What do you think?
Host Adm_Harlan says:
@<Capt. Red>  Adm:  It looks promising.  ::Smiles::  Though if they decide not to take this on, you may have to figure out a way to pry their FCO off the shuttle.
Host CO_West says:
@::Enters the TL::   OPS: Where is the Bar on this place?
Host Adm_Harlan says:
::Chuckling, they both return to their work.::
CTO_Ens_Jackson says:
XO: Aye sir. ::Starts suiting up:: Sir, just one question. Are we also going to get a parachute, or is there one integrated in the EVA suit?
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@CO: What on earth makes you think I would know? Take Turbolift 2, turn right.  We can't miss it.
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
FCO: If they have global sensors around the planet they could easily detect the atmospheric interference the shuttle will make...two people will hardly register
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
::smiles:: CTO: Unfortunately there aren't any on the EVA that I know of...your going to have to use the thrusters to slow you down
Host CO_West says:
@::shoots a sideways look at the way OPS answered her::
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@::Smiling Sardonically::
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@CO: But don't you know, Captain, OPS officers, never drink.
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
::rolls eyes, sighs and turns around, heading back to the helm, muttering.::
Host CO_West says:
@::Leaning over slightly and speaking in a low voice:: OPS: You might want to clean up that tone of voice a little bit...Ens.
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@CO: Who, me? I am pure as the driven snow, Captain.
CTO_Ens_Jackson says:
XO: Sir, that would cause some rather big turbulence, that can be picked up easily on sensors. I would suggest we use the old fusion parachutes. ::Smiles again::
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
::Slows the shuttle to impulse.::  ALL:  We've arrived.
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
::grins as the FCO turns around to take his post:: Self: He himself would have objected to the plan...but right now this is the only way he can think that will be the least amount of risk to everyone.  But he is glad the FCO will stay on his post::
Host CO_West says:
@::Chuckles a bit:: OPS: you drink , water don't you?
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
FCO: Find me the bio-signature of Lt.Cmdr Winter...and then put us into orbit so that the CTO and CMO will drop about 1/2 kilometer away from the city
OPS_Ens_Lessing says:
@CO: Yes.  Yes, and gin. Hydrogen and Oxygen, two hydrogen’s to one oxygen.  Amongst other things.
XO_Cmdr_Anderson says:
::sends the location of the bio signature to the CTO and CMO and they prepare to drop::  CTO/CMO: Best of Luck Gentlemen....we'll see you soon
FCO_Ens_Keown says:
::Enters the appropriate orbit.  Scans for Lt.Cmdr. Winter's bio signature.::
