Summary
	In order to collect the other two necklaces quickly, the captain sent an away team lead by the XO to the Ferengi pleasure ship and he took the Nighthawk to Andoria.  The XO’s team arrived and met up with the Ferengi believed to have the necklace, while the Captain and his group found a museum locked up for the night.
	The CSO disappears with the Ferengi into the depths of the ship while the gentlemen find themselves defending themselves against a couple of very determined and gorgeous ladies.  Light years away, the captain and his group suddenly find themselves under fire.

The Story…
Long ago, the Hamorians lived peacefully on their harsh world planet  They had expended their energy to dealing with illnesses do to their environment until eventually they had the medical technology to prolong their life to great extent; virtually immortal.  Enter the picture an unknown invading group who sought the Latinum and other precious minerals of the Hamorian’s world.  They captured, and enslaved the people.  Then upon discovering this immortality, they tried to claim it for them selves.  To all appearances, it did not work.  In rage they murdered most of the people.
	In revenge, the few remaining Hamorians launched a plague upon their world, killing the aliens and themselves, making the planet uninhabitable.  A few survivors left the planet with three necklaces.  Combined, the necklaces provide the location of their planet and a map to the ‘Soul of Hamor’.  Only those pure of heart will be able to find it…

Captain's Log Stardate 10605.20:  I have split the crew up to two teams, to retrieve a necklaces.  Commander Jackson has taken the Chameleon and going to retrive it from the Ferengi.  Meanwhile I will be taking the remainder of the crew to Andoria to retrieve another necklace.

First Officer's Log, Stardate 10605.20 - Commander Gomes, Commander Varesh, Ensign Holax and myself are on our way to the location of one of the medallions we are looking for. Located in a Ferengi ship, the plan is to bluff our way towards obtaining the item.

<<<<<<<<<< Small Packages... >>>>>>>>>>

CNS Cmdr Varesh says:
@:: Wonders how effective he will be in reading the people around the team if the majority will be Ferengi... one of the few races he can't read.::
CSO Cmdr Gomes says:
@:: Smoothly docks the Chameleon in the Ferengi's pleasure ship shuttlebay::
CMO LtJG Trigger says:
:: In sickbay making sure everything's properly squared away::
 CO Capt Monroe says:
:: Sits in the command chair reading some items about Andoria::
XO Cmdr Jackson says:
@:: Sitting in the back of the Chameleon's bridge area as they dock::
SO Rose says:
:: Quietly on the bridge, monitoring the surroundings, not really expecting anything out of the ordinary.::
CSO Cmdr Gomes says:
@XO/CNS: Alright, we are here and dressed to kill. What follows?
 CO Capt Monroe says:
:: Looks up from his report:: SO: Can you scan the surface and check where the necklace is located?
CMO LtJG Trigger says:
:: Steps out of sickbay and heads for the nearest TL::

Scenery: Below the Nighthawk, the planet of Andoria slowly rotates.  It is a fairly busy world with many ships coming and going.  It is a planet that has been at general peace now for a couple of decades.

CNS Cmdr Varesh says:
@CSO: We gamble on a hunch?
XO Cmdr Jackson says:
@CSO: Now, we go try and make a fortune... hopefully leading to getting that medallion in our possession. :: Gets up:: Will we be getting any guide or something?
SO Rose says:
CO: Ummm... I don't have any data on the necklace, unless Commander Gomes left it behind.  Didn't Admiral Harlan tell her who had it?
CSO Cmdr Gomes says:
@XO: I think we can hire a guide. CNS/XO: But what sort of gambling will get us to speak to the leader of this thing. I doubt he sits at every dabo table
 CO Capt Monroe says:
SO: It was suppose to be in a museum.  Check with the local people and see if they have any idea where it is.
EO Ens Nescheriakova says:
::Walking around in engineering, sighing a lot... his mind continuously occupied with other things that... engineering.::
SO Rose says:
CO: Sir, ask them what exactly?  Do we want it advertised that we are looking for this necklace?
CMO LtJG Trigger says:
:: After a short ride he steps out onto the bridge:: CO: You called for me Cap'n?
 CO Capt Monroe says:
SO: Good point.
XO Cmdr Jackson says:
@:: Shakes head:: CSO: No, that is why we have to be noticed by him fairly soon.. Not by appearance, but by performance in the games... He might consider us for a... Private bet...
CNS Cmdr Varesh says:
@CSO: High stakes stuff... throw around the latinum like we don't care; Ferengi like latinum.
 CO Capt Monroe says:
CMO:  Yes, let me ask you is it better to ask for the necklace or just take it
 CO Capt Monroe says:
SO: Suggestions?
CSO Cmdr Gomes says:
@XO/CNS: I'll trust your gambling instincts and just follow you ::presses a few buttons to open the door to the outside::
CMO LtJG Trigger says:
CO: From the Andorians?
 CO Capt Monroe says:
CMO: Yes.
 
@ Scenery: The Ferengi's 'pleasure ship' is a polite way to say gambling that is not quite illegal, but neither is it really legal.  One enters at ones own risk.  The place is brightly lit with the sounds of laughter and gambling machines.  Groan and curses in many languages as well as the casual shout of joy at winning.

XO Cmdr Jackson says:
@:: Nods and smiles:: CSO: And also, look pretty... Ferengi like that too.
SO Rose says:
:: Points with a smile at the CMO:: CO: I suggest him.
CMO LtJG Trigger says:
CO: I'd say ask first, they've only been at peace for a couple of decades now, I don't think they'll react too well to having it taken from them
CSO Cmdr Gomes says:
@::glances sideways at Jackson:: XO: I will look as pretty as I am ... if they dislike its their problem ::picks up her dress and heads out::
 CO Capt Monroe says:
CMO: Good point.  
SO: Is there any scientific uses for the necklace other than we are here for?
EO Ens Nescheriakova says:
:: Grabs a PADD and instead of writing reports he draws hearts, arrows and cupids.::
XO Cmdr Jackson says:
@::Looks away before rolling his eyes:: Self: I'll stay quiet next time.. ::Gets up and follows Gomes out::
SO Rose says:
CO: Not that is known.  And I just had a thought... not really a pleasant one really.  What if it is not even here anymore?  What if those goons have collected the other two necklaces by now?  I mean... if Harlan could find out... why couldn't they?
CMO LtJG Trigger says:
CO: If you would like, I could take a team down to get it.
CNS Cmdr Varesh says:
@:: Gets up and follows them too:: XO: Never did have much luck with the ladies, did you? :: Grins::
CSO Cmdr Gomes says:
@:: Arrives in the main gambling room and is amazed with all the glittering furniture and walls. Combined with flashy clothing and lots of money::
 CO Capt Monroe says:
::Rubs his chin:: SO: Did Commander Gomes leave the location of the museum?
XO Cmdr Jackson says:
@:: Glares at Varesh for a moment, then a smile breaks through:: CNS: I suppose not...
SO Rose says:
CO: I believe I have that information.  Are we going to go visiting?  :: turns to pull up the location of the museum which is supposed to have the necklace.::
CNS Cmdr Varesh says:
@:: Chuckles:: XO: But then again, Rose isn't just anybody. :: Wonders if the clothing will help fill their parts::
 CO Capt Monroe says:
SO: Yes.  CMO: Meet me in the transporter room in ten minutes
 CO Capt Monroe says:
*EO*: Ensign, Report to Transporter room 2.
CMO LtJG Trigger says:
:: Sidles up to the SO:: CO: Aye sir! :: turns back to Rose:: SO: how are you doing?
CSO Cmdr Gomes says:
@:: Smiles at the environment, obviously fashioned to make anyone feel comfortable:: XO/CNS: I could just sit here all night with a drink in my hand but I guess we have to show ourselves.. But where to begin?
EO Ens Nescheriakova says:
:: Still drawing hearts and cupids...:
 CO Capt Monroe says:
SO: You too report to transporter room 2
SO Rose says:
:: Smiles:: CMO: Very well thank you.  You probably thought I drew danger... in getting hurt all the time.  But I have been whole lately... thanks to you.
XO Cmdr Jackson says:
@:: Nods slowly at the CNS as he too enters the gambling area, taking a good look around::
SO Rose says:
CO: Me too?
CMO LtJG Trigger says:
:: Smiles:: SO: Well I hope you don't mind if I keep an eye on you down there.
 CO Capt Monroe says:
:: Gets up:: SO: I think the fresh air would do you good.
SO Rose says:
CMO: If it will keep me out of your domain, I won't argue with that.  :: stands with the information downloaded on a padd::
CNS Cmdr Varesh says:
@CSO: Well, we could gamble loudly and get their attention, but for that to happen we will have to win consistently to attract the big boss's attention.
SO Rose says:
CO: Museums are not known for fresh.  :: smiling lightly, moves to join him.::
CMO LtJG Trigger says:
:: Smiles and waits for the SO to enter the TL::
CSO Cmdr Gomes says:
@CNS: Win consistently in a game of luck .... I can only think of one way to do that and its not the kind of thing they teach us at the academy :: Smiles::
 CO Capt Monroe says:
SO: Well.  :: Walks into the TL:: It is better than staying here for a bit.
SO Rose says:
CO: Given the last few times I have stepped off the ship, can I withhold judgment just yet?
CNS Cmdr Varesh says:
@:: Smiles back at her:: CSO: I do believe you are referring to cheating. If we get caught, we could also get the big boss's attention...
EO Ens Nescheriakova says:
:: The lines of the arrows become somewhat bend as he walks along the corridors towards the TR2.::
CNS Cmdr Varesh says:
@CSO/XO: Or they could just push us out of an airlock.
 CO Capt Monroe says:
SO: Well this will be... painless.
XO Cmdr Jackson says:
@:: Looks over at the CNS, then to the CSO:: CNS/CSO: Indeed.... We need to... ::Steps closer to them and whispers:: Manipulate these things a bit...
 CO Capt Monroe says:
SO: Well unless someone decides to attack the planet.  We should be ok.
SO Rose says:
:: Eyes open wide:: CO: Sir, you do realize you are putting a jinx on this?  :: As the lift stops, waits for the captain to exit the turbolift first.::
CSO Cmdr Gomes says:
@CNS/CSO: Believe it or not I have a small tricorder concealed in the fabric of this dress. It’s limited and I intended to use it only to find the necklace. But I am not sure we can do much with it.
 CO Capt Monroe says:
:: Walks out:: SO: Well I should knock on wood, then.  This place is peaceful.
 Talkt says:
@:: Jovially roams the room, talking with the various customers, keeping an eye out for potential mark::
CMO LtJG Trigger says:
CO: We still have wood on the ship sir? 
 CO Capt Monroe says:
::Walks to the Tranporter room:: CMO: No. This ship is all metal composites.
SO Rose says:
:: Rolls her eyes as she steps through the transporter room doors and over to the transporter chief to give him the beaming coordinates.::
CSO Cmdr Gomes says:
@:: Notices the important-looking ferengi in the room and gets a piece of GPL from her purse and starts fiddling with it and whispers:: CNS/XO: Luck may be on our side after all
EO Ens Nescheriakova says:
:: Turns a corner and enters the transporter rooms and instantly drops his PADD as the sees the SO there.::
 CO Capt Monroe says:
:: Walks to the weapons locker and takes a personal phaser, and a tricorder::
CMO LtJG Trigger says:
:: Turns as he hears the PADD drop:: EO: Still having problems with that hand Gustav?
XO Cmdr Jackson says:
@:: Looks up at Gomes, then looks in the direction she is looking:: CSO: He sure looks important...
 CO Capt Monroe says:
:: Walks back to the transporter padd, and steps on it::
SO Rose says:
:: Turns at the noise and seeing the engineer thinks the captain may truely have jinxed the mission.  Gives the EO a smile then turns to step onto the transporter padd::
CMO LtJG Trigger says:
:: Takes a medkit and hand phaser from the locker::
CNS Cmdr Varesh says:
@CSO: And what do you have in mind?
 Talkt says:
@ :: Leans over a lovely lady with more skin then clothes and engages her in an interesting topic for the both of them.::
EO Ens Nescheriakova says:
:: Nervously picks up the PADD and walks over to the captain, keeping an eye on the SO.:: CO: You asked for me sir?
 CO Capt Monroe says:
EO: Get on the transporter padd.
 CO Capt Monroe says:
EO: You are on the away team.
SO Rose says:
:: Whispers quietly:: CMO: Is he safe?
CMO LtJG Trigger says:
:: Steps up on the Pad::
CSO Cmdr Gomes says:
@CNS: I am not sure ::adjusts her dress  and walks over to Talkt:: Talkt: I think I may have a more interesting topic for you ... ::smiles::
EO Ens Nescheriakova says:
:: Looks surprised:: CO: Aw... awa.... aw... awaaa.... away team? Gustav on away team?
CMO LtJG Trigger says:
:: Whispers:: SO: Gustav? Oh he's a little clumsy but at least he's competent.
CNS Cmdr Varesh says:
@:: Whispers:: XO: I can at least find her if I have to, these Ferengi are like blank walls to me.
 Talkt says:
@ :: Looks with a frown, which quickly turns to a grin as he eyes the woman from head to toe::  CSO: I am all ears...
 CO Capt Monroe says:
EO: Yes.  Get on the padd. Transporter Chief: Energize, when the ensign is on the padd.
SO Rose says:
:: Gives the CMO a doubtful look and turns to wait for transport.::
EO Ens Nescheriakova says:
:: Nods, jiggles a bit with his PADD then steps on the transporter padd.::
XO Cmdr Jackson says:
@:: Looks from Gomes to Varesh and back again, and notices too late that Gomes had taken off towards Talkt, too late to stop her:: Self: Great... ::Looks at Varesh again:: CNS: One day we will understand them.. But not today...
 CO Capt Monroe says:
Transporter Chief: Energize.
CNS Cmdr Varesh says:
@XO: Yeah, I know... Can't live with them, can't live with them.

ACTION: The captain's away team beams onto a public landing padd not far from a museum.  It is evening.  The city is brightly lit by artificial lighting.
 
CO Capt Monroe says:
SO: Led the way Lieutenant.
 Rose says:
:: self::  Uh-oh...
CSO Cmdr Gomes says:
@:: Giggles and gently runs her fingers through his right lobe:: Talkt: Indeed you are. Me and my associates have recently acquired a large sum of ... ::fiddles with the bar of latinum again:: Talkt: And we are looking to invest it on something ..interesting. Could you perhaps help us ... Help me?
 CO Capt Monroe says:
:: Pulls his tricorder out, and takes readings::
SO Rose says:
:: Looks at the captain and stepping from the area, heads down the street toward what appears to be an very old building with a worn sign engraved across the front of the building.::
EO Ens Nescheriakova says:
:: Looks around, somewhat shaken, still holding the PADD with the hearts, cupids and arrows.::
CMO LtJG Trigger says:
:: Takes out the medical tricorder and starts scanning as he follows Rose::
 CO Capt Monroe says:
:: Walks to the doors:: SO: Let's see, what we have here.  :: Walks into the building::
 Talkt says:
@ :: Smiles as he leers in pleasure::  CSO: That depends... where do you fit into this?
CMO LtJG Trigger says:
:: Cautiously enters behind the captain::
SO Rose says:
CO: We have a building that is not open after hours.  :: Points to the hours the museum is open.::
CSO Cmdr Gomes says:
@:: Hesitates for a moment but then smiles again:: Talkt: wherever I am needed ::touches his ear lobe again::
 CO Capt Monroe says:
:: Pulls on the door:: SO: It seems so.  How long till it opens.
 Talkt says:
@ :: Almost purring in pleasure::  CSO: Did you have anything specific in mind for your investment?
EO Ens Nescheriakova says:
:: Quickly moves in after the CMO::
CMO LtJG Trigger says:
:: Turns round and bumps into the EO:: EO: Not so close comrade.
CNS Cmdr Varesh says:
@XO: She's good...
EO Ens Nescheriakova says:
:: Raises his hands after dropping the PADD again:: CMO: Solly.. .err.. sorry comrade. Gustav just not used to be on away missions.
CSO Cmdr Gomes says:
@Talkt: Not really, but you seemed like the man for investments ::lowers her voice:: To be honest I love to wear my investments. Anything I can show in public and make me glow is perfect
SO Rose says:
CO: Well.. we could come back in about 8 hours or... :: frowns:: or we could do it the not so nice way... :: Points to the engineer:: and he could ummm... break us in?
CMO LtJG Trigger says:
::whispers:: EO: I don't think you'll impress her much if you keep dropping that think, loosen up a bit.
 Talkt says:
@ CSO: Hmmm... I might have something in mind for you... but you alone.  :: Looks negligently at the others with her.::
 CO Capt Monroe says:
:: Looks up:: SO: 8 hours?  Hm... 
EO: You have your tools with you?
XO Cmdr Jackson says:
@:: Walks over to Gomes, slowly, shooting a look at Talkt:: CSO: I take it you introduced us already? ::Indicates himself and Varesh::
 
@ACTION: Two very gorgeous employees come up to the counselor and first officer and literally drape themselves over them.

EO Ens Nescheriakova says:
:: Looks down at the PADD:: CMO: Err... ::blushes and quickly picks it up, clears it and puts it in his kit.:: CO: Yes... yes comrade sir.
 Talkt says:
@ :: Looks from one man to another and shrugs::
CNS Cmdr Varesh says:
@:: Goes to stand next to Gary:: Talkt: Our associate sometimes forget we're here too... she gets carried away. :: Smiles sweetly at Gomes::
 CO Capt Monroe says:
SO: Keep a look out and tap into their security grid. EO: Let's go around the back.
CNS Cmdr Varesh says:
@:: Glances at the girl hanging onto him, but says nothing... not quite his thing, but for the moment he'll play along::
CSO Cmdr Gomes says:
@:: Again hesitates but then smiles again:: Talkt: As much as I would like to be with you alone, they have a big part of the latinum to be invested. But after the ..negotiations I can certainly send them on their way
SO Rose says:
CO: Tap into their security grid?  :: looks at the CMO::
EO Ens Nescheriakova says:
:: Looks at the CMO and lastly the SO, then moves along with the captain.::
 CO Capt Monroe says:
SO: We might be breaking in.  Unless you have another idea.

@ ACTION: Gently the two girls try to pull the XO and CNS away.

CMO LtJG Trigger says:
:: Looks between the SO and CO:: CO: Let me see if I can get access to their security systems.
SO Rose says:
CO: Captain sir... anything after 8 hours is breaking in.  How about we do some sight seeting? :: looks a bit hopeful::
XO Cmdr Jackson says:
@:: Takes the girl's hand and shakes his head, indicating she might as well stop::
 Talkt says:
@ :: Shakes his head::  CSO: It is only you babe or nothing.
 CO Capt Monroe says:
:: Holds his hand up:: CMO: Hold up.  SO: You might be right; I think jail is one thing I want to avoid.
CSO Cmdr Gomes says:
@:: Looks at the other two for a few seconds, looking for a sign::
XO Cmdr Jackson says:
@:: Looks at Varesh::
 Gigi says:
@ :: Pouts at the XO and continues trying to encourage him away.
CNS Cmdr Varesh says:
@XO: I'm sure we can trust her. ::tries to implant an image in Alex's mind with him watching her from above::
EO Ens Nescheriakova says:
:: Bumps into the CO as he is checking his tool kit.:: CO: Sorry comrade sir.
CMO LtJG Trigger says:
CO: A good point, I must admit the last time was far from comfortable.
CSO Cmdr Gomes says:
@::adjusts her dress again and smiles:: Talkt: I am certain they won't mind my using their money ... men never do. Lead the way
 CO Capt Monroe says:
::Looks at him:: EO: It is ok.  
SO: You have anything you want to see?
 Talkt says:
@ :: Stands, straightening his clothes and leads her toward a hallway.::
XO Cmdr Jackson says:
@:: Looks as the two of them walk away:: CNS: You are able to keep an eye on her, in a way of saying... Right?
SO Rose says:
CO: Ummm... I have never been to Andoria, so anything is fine with me.
CSO Cmdr Gomes says:
@:: Walks proudly away, keeping a hand on her purse, hoping latinum is all she will have to give this ferengi::
CMO LtJG Trigger says:
CO: Might be a good idea to look around sir
EO Ens Nescheriakova says:
:: Walks around slightly, looking at buildings, ending up close to the SO.::
 CO Capt Monroe says:
SO: Ok then lets walk that way, and see what there is :: Starts walking in a northerly direction.::
CNS Cmdr Varesh says:
@XO: I can keep a light mental touch on anybody I have associated with for a long time. I can at least tell if she is being threatened or not, and a general direction if we need to start looking. :: Talking quietly after asking the two ladies to fetch them something to drink::

ACTION: Phaser fire lances out of the dark at the officers... at the officers, a shot glancing off the SO arms.

SO Rose says:
:: Yelps then sighs as she moves behind a column:: Jinxed...
 
@ ACTION: The Ferengi leads the counselor further down into the ship, away from the 'excitement', passing various guards on his way to his apartments, while the XO and CNS continue to deal with the two ladies.
