::continues checking her readouts for more information on the cloud including composition, characteristics, etc...::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::the comm. wakes him again from another bout of head 'bobbing'::  *XO* I'm on my way Commander.  ::puts book down and enters bridge::

SO_Vortak says:
XO:  Ma'am, we are being pulled toward it.  FCO: Can you compensate?

EO_Harhn says:
CEO: Sir, I cant help but notice something doesn't seem right. Why do you keep poking panels like that?

EO_Tune says:
::waits for Harhn to return::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
XO: Any word on what sort of phenomenon it is?

CEO_Jamin says:
::gives the EO an odd look:: EO: The controls tend to work better if you actually PRESS them.

Host XO_Zax says:
CO: None, Sir. We are being pulled towards it.

CEO_Jamin says:
::pokes a fourth panel to drive the point home::

EO_Tune says:
::looks at the CEO being sarcastic with the EO.  Wonders what his problem is::

EO_Harhn says:
CEO: Yes sir,....sorry sir. I have had an idea if we need to transport some of the colonists to the ship.

SO_Vortak says:
XO:  Nothing yet, so far Ma'am, Sir ::as she nods to the Captain, noting his drowsy eyes::

Host XO_Zax says:
FCO: Pull us away from that thing!

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
FCO: Lt Stricker, try to keep our distance from that cloud.

CEO_Jamin says:
::stabs fingers at a fifth...he could never refuse a fifth...:: EO: What is it?

EO_Harhn says:
CEO: Well sir, if we need to put them in a cargo bay, I thought about setting up a bio containment field. With your permission, I would like to proceed

CMO_Varr says:
::considers the last time Luna and he had a meal together, and wonders if tonight might be a good night to ask her over::

SO_Vortak says:
::continues to work diligently on analyzing the incoming data to discover what could be pulling them in::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
*CEO* Mr. Jamin... we may need more power to the propulsion systems.  Please stand by, Vn'dor out.

Host XO_Zax says:
Action: The ship is unable to avoid the cloud, and is sucked into the funnel. It is spun around and around in a dizzying fashion.
The crew is stunned to see many objects floating by: a house, a cow, Admiral Rene Harlan on a bicycle, peddling her heart out.

CEO_Jamin says:
EO: Good idea...go ahead.

CEO_Jamin says:
*CO*: Understood. ::finally stops poking panels, and drops the stack of reports he had been checking::

EO_Tune says:
::gets an engineering kit and follows Harhn::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::turns to the SO::  SO:  See if you can beam Admiral Harlan to sickbay

SO_Vortak says:
CO:  Aye Captain.  ::attempts to beam the Admiral to sickbay::

CMO_Varr says:
::falls out of his chair, and suddenly feels a deep connection with the FCO for some unexplained reason::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::stumbles at the sudden stop::  SO: Sensor readings?

EO_Harhn says:
::Enters TL with Tune:: TL: Deck 10

SO_Vortak says:
*CMO* I am attempting to beam an injured party to the sickbay, you may want to prepare...

Host XO_Zax says:
Action: The ship has become grounded on a large planet....and the Alpha command crew find themselves outside of the ship, but they have been....changed. The Captain is wearing a pair of blue checked overalls, and can be heard muttering the phrase "Oh my!", over and over again. The XO has been transformed into a small, rather attractive little

CMO_Varr says:
::realizes he isn't hurt and the feeling fades::

Host XO_Zax says:
dog, whom the Captain is carrying in a small basket. The CMO is covered in...tin and appears a trifle rusty, while the CEO is covered in fur, has a mane...and a tail!

Host XO_Zax says:
Action: The EO is wearing a funny looking straw hat, and seems to be made of straw, as he s having trouble staying on his feet. The SO appears to be a horse, but a rather strange one at that,

Host XO_Zax says:
as she appears to have a curved bar at the ends of her hooves, and is rocking! The CNS on the other hand, seems to be a rag doll of sorts, floppy and colorful

Host XO_Zax says:
The FCO appears to be a tin soldier who is rusted and dull, it appears that one of his legs has cracked and fallen off,

CEO_Jamin says:
::stops cold, looking at his own furry paws, thinking "not again!", and screaming::

Tin_Man says:
::feels a bit stiff::

SO_Vortak says:
Neeeeeiggggggh

SO_Vortak says:
::wonders why she did that::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
CEO: You okay Mr. Lion?

Scarecrow says:
::Trying to stand but very shakily::

SO_Vortak says:
::rocks back and forth::

CNS_Luchena says:
::moves her arms and notices they are floppy::

Lion says:
::screams some more::

Host Toto says:
Action: and the MO is a ragged, worn, once velvet, rabbit

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::turns to the little dog in the basket::  Toto: Somehow, I don't think we are in the Pendragon anymore...

Host Toto says:
Action: They are in the middle of what appears to be a very bright, colorful, miniature town.

Host Toto says:
CO: ruff, ruff

Rocking_Horse says:
::looks up at those around her, wondering who they are and how she got there::

Host Toto says:
Action: The crew suddenly notice that the ship, which is now the size of a small house, seems to have landed upon a ballerina, a very beautiful ballerina with a porcelain face, which is now cracked.
Upon further inspection, they are horrified to realize the ballerina was Ensign Tune, who is now very much dead.

Tin_Man says:
::moving his arm, feeling the rust::  Toto:  Quite right.  Very rough.

EO_Tune says:
::lies dead beneath the ship::

Rocking_Horse says:
::rocks back and forth::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:

Lion says:
::starts to get tired of screaming::

CNS_Luchena says:
::her little legs poke out beneath the ship::

Host Toto says:
::bites the lion on the ankle::

Rabbit says:
:: hops around and is confused::

CNS_Luchena says:
::looks at Tina's dead body and feels sick::

Lion says:
::lets out a quick yelp before reflexively kicking the dog::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::walks toward the house and ballerina... then turns back to the bunch:: All: I think she's dead.

Host Toto says:
Action: The crew suddenly finds themselves surrounded by tiny little people, no taller than knee high.

Lion says:
::feels the sudden urge to enter a mauling frenzy::

Rocking_Horse says:
::notices that people are looking at the house that is...behind her... but she can't.... seem to turn around... just rocks back and forth::

Scarecrow says:
::Flops about::

Tin_Man says:
::eyes the little people in bright clothing VERY doubtfully::

Host Toto says:
::runs around barking::

Rabbit says:
:: sees the lions diabolical look and runs for the nearest rabbit hole::

Lion says:
::watches the rabbit, licking his lips::

Rocking_Horse says:
::sees the tiny people, hopes they don't get any bright ideas, rocking back and forth::

The_Rag_Doll says:
::looks at the little people and is glad they don't have spears::

Tin_Man says:
::notices the dead ballerina, and feels... strangely, nothing at all.  It's almost as if something is missing::

Host Toto says:
Action: The tiny people pull out tiny spears.

Rabbit says:
:: looks out of the hole and gives the lion a raspberry::

The_Rag_Doll says:
Thinks to self: Oh oh.

Lion says:
::growls at the little people bearing spears::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
Little People: Greetings... we are visitors here.

Host Toto says:
Action: The nearest little person growls at the Captain

Scarecrow says:
::Falls to the ground::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::steps back a little startled::  Oh my....

Rocking_Horse says:
::rocks back and forth::  Self: This would be good motion for a meditation later...

Host Toto says:
Action: A crystal star falls gently to the ground, and out of it appears Gisella, Fairy Queen of Main Street.

Host Gisella says:
::slowly walks through the crowd, her gossamer wings sparkling in the sun as she assess the commotion::

Rabbit says:
:: sees the CO and the little people, but he still eyes the lion::

Host Toto says:
::begins to bark madly::

Host Toto says:
::bites the lion again::

The_Rag_Doll says:
::watches the fairy queen appear::

Host Gisella says:
::Walks up to the strangers and looks at the strange vessel on the ballerina::

Lion says:
::thinks this is getting entirely too strange, and wishes he'd just wake up::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::pats Toto nervously::  Toto: It's okay Toto...  I'm sure they won't hurt us...  ::looks at the nearest Little Person::  LP: Will you...??  ::hopefully::

Rocking_Horse says:
::wonders what kind of alien that beautiful lady is::

Rabbit says:
:: dashes out of the hole and bites the lion on his tail, then runs back to the safety of the hole::

The_Rag_Doll says:
::thinks that was a pretty brave rabbit::

Host Gisella says:
CO:  No, they will not harm you if you do not harm them.  ::frowns as she looks at the dead one::

Lion says:
::roars, having had enough of these small creatures nipping at him...and starts digging into the hole with huge sweeps of his large claws::

Rocking_Horse says:
::rocks back and forth::

Tin_Man says:
::feels his head, and what feels like a funnel upon it::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
Gisella: That's very good to hear... Ms... Ms....?

The_Rag_Doll says:
::the strangeness of the whole situation starts to dawn on her::

Rabbit says:
:: goes down into the depths of the hole and gives the lion another raspberry::

Scarecrow says:
::Has not got the ability to decide to stand again, so stays on the ground::

Host Gisella says:
CO:  I am the good fairy Gisella of Main street.  What can I do for you?

Lion says:
::continues clawing at the rapidly expanding hole, knowing he will reach the rabbit eventually::

Rocking_Horse says:
Scarecrow: You can lean on me, if you need to.

Rabbit says:
:: continues to back down into the hole wondering when the lion will realize that he has another exit else were::

Scarecrow says:
Rocking horse: Why thank you. ::And without thinking, accepted the offer::

Host Toto says:
Action: The lion suddenly turns cowardly.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
Gisella:  I...I'm not quite sure...  We seem to be lost.  ::motioning to the rest::  My friends and I wish to find our way home... I'm not quite sure where that is at the 
moment...

Rabbit says:
:: as well as many other rabbit holes::

The_Rag_Doll says:
::looks very pretty and colourful::

The_Rag_Doll says:
::glad she is not an animal this time::

Lion says:
::doesn't feel especially brave, but feels extremely angry, and it's only a rabbit, anyway...continues clawing in::

Host Toto says:
Action: The rabbit suddenly realizes he's not a real rabbit but a velvet one, and is getting his velvet dirty.

Host Gisella says:
::taps her lips for a moment as she looks about at the stranger::  All:  I can not help so many of you, but I know who can.  You need to go to the Latinum city... but... ::lifts a finger warningly::  You must beware the Mad Monkey King.

Rocking_Horse says:
Gisella: We did not have the intention of harming her.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
Gisella: The mad monkey king?

Host Gisella says:
CO: Yes, in his way you do not wish to come.  But if your hearts are true, and your feet remain on the path, you should be all right... ::looks again at the ballerina::

Scarecrow says:
::Rocking back and forth as the rocking horse speaks::

The_Rag_Doll says:
::follows Gisella's glance towards Tina, and stifles a sob::

Rabbit says:
:: looks at his coat, shrugs off the dirt, while watching the lion::

Host Toto says:
Action: The ballerina's pink ballet slippers suddenly appear on the captain's feet, a little tight, but pretty all the same.

Tin_Man says:
ALL:  Well, jolly good then.  Shall we be off?

Lion says:
::takes another big swipe, within a few inches of the rabbit::

Scarecrow says:
Tin man: Off, off where?

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
Gisella: Path?  What path?  Will it take us directly to the city?

Host Gisella says:
::Reaches out with her wand and touches the Ballerina’s feet, then lightly touches the captains feet.  A glimmer of light swirls from one to the other::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::looks down at his feet seeing the slippers appear::

Tin_Man says:
Scarecrow: Why, to Latinum City, as the fair maiden suggested.

Rabbit says:
:: delivers a swift bite to the lions hand on the back swing::

Host Gisella says:
::Waves her hands to create a wave of the little people.  As they step back a Red brick road is seen, going in a spiral outwards::

Rabbit says:
:: then backs off again::

Tin_Soldier says:
::Follows the pack::

Scarecrow says:
Tin Man: Will I find a brain there?

Lion says:
::delivers a frightening roar, tearing the ground apart suddenly and exposing the rabbit to open air::

Rocking_Horse says:
::rocks back and forth::

Host Gisella says:
All:  Follow the Red brick road, and stay true to not only yourselves but to each other... and think of your home...

The_Rag_Doll says:
::jumps in and grabs the rabbit away from the lion::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::seeing the Red Brick Road::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::thinks “There's no place like home”::

Host Gisella says:
::bends down to scoop up the dust remains of the ballerina, then turns to leave::

Lion says:
::roars again, still after the rabbit, regardless of who it's actually with::

Host Toto says:
Action: A yellow taxi pulls up, Gisella hops in, and drives away.

Tin_Man says:
::eyes the Scarecrow::  Scarecrow: Perhaps, my straw friend, perhaps.

Scarecrow says:
Gisella: I can't think of home, I have no brain

Host Gisella says:
All:  Good luck...

Rabbit says:
:: looks back and forth and runs between the lions legs running towards the tin man::

The_Rag_Doll says:
::pats the rabbit and glares at the lion::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
All: well... what do you say?  Latinum City?

Rabbit says:
:: then returns to the rag doll::

Lion says:
::bites the rabbit on the leg::

The_Rag_Doll says:
::kicks the lion away from the rabbit::

Rocking_Horse says:
CO:  I can't seem to go anywhere.... See?  ::rocks back and forth::

Host Toto says:
Action: In a cloud of blue smoke, the Flying Monkey King Appears, spewing evil.

The_Rag_Doll says:
::gasps::

Scarecrow says:
::Walks behind the rocking horse and tries to push but only falls to the ground::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::turns to the Rocking Horse::  RH: Hmm... Perhaps we can ask the Mad Monkey King 
for some legs...

Lion says:
::vaguely feels a foot tap him lightly, somewhere...obviously from someone that doesn't realize just how big lions really are::

Tin_Man says:
::looks down and see a Rag Doll that strikes him as oddly familiar::  Rag_Doll: Why Hello there, little one.  Do I know you?

Rabbit says:
:: grabs the doll:: Doll: help me please ::looking pitifully::

Host Toto says:
Action: The little people with spears cheer wildly::

Mad_Monkey_King says:
::He is a huge monkey, the size of a gorilla, with the same awesome strength and magnificent nature. His face is a sneer of evil as he looks at the "toys" shouldering his huge banana. A gold fez marks him as the Mad Monkey King.::

The_Rag_Doll says:
::looks at the tin man with interest::

Tin_Man says:
::looks at the Lion causing trouble, and bops him on the nose with the flat of his axe::

The_Rag_Doll says:
::looks at the Monkey King's banana with interest::

Rocking_Horse says:
:CO:  I don't know if we want to ask for help from such an evil looking creature.

Tin_Man says:
Lion: Not very sporting I say old man.  Quiet down a bit.

Mad_Monkey_King says:
::Also, wings adorn his back, for he is able to fly with awesome skill. The banana rests on his shoulder as he looks down on the pathetic crew. He looks at the ballerina and his eyes flash with 
anger. He roars, beating his chest with one hand.::

Lion says:
::lunges at the annoying Tin Man, mauling wildly::

Mad_Monkey_King says:
::raising his banana like a gun, he launches a round and brown coconut at the Lion.::

Host Toto says:
Action: The lion is stunned.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::seeing the creature, s/he agrees with the Rocking Horse::

Tin_Man says:
::stands unmoving under the assault, and mostly unscratched::  Lion:  Not bloody smart are you?

Tin_Soldier says:
::Follows the pack::

The_Rag_Doll says:
::dawns on her again how bizarre this whole situation is::

Lion says:
::briefly feels a "thunk" to the head, before freezing solid::

Rocking_Horse says:
Scarecrow: Well, thanks for your help, anyway

Mad_Monkey_King says:
CO: Who are you people!? ::he asks with deep and magnificent power.::

Lion says:
::stiff as a board, falls over::

Rabbit says:
:: takes his chance and runs up to the lion and bites it on its butt, then retreats to the safety of the 
rag doll::

The_Rag_Doll says:
::pats the rabbit::

Lion says:
::doesn't feel a thing, and is glad of that at least::

Mad_Monkey_King says:
All: You killed my ballerina! You shall all pay dearly, for I am the Mad Monkey King. ::he beats his chest more, roaring.::

Rabbit says:
:: looks at the MMK:: Self: yea right

Tin_Man says:
::turns back to the Rag Doll:  Rag_Doll:  Sorry about that, but do we know each other?

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::thinks for a moment... "That you are... quite mad...."::

Host Toto says:
Action: The Monkey King's minions begin to fly around menacingly

Rocking_Horse says:
::thinks that would be illogical as we had no intention of killing her::

The_Rag_Doll says:
Tin Man:  Hummm....I’m not quite sure, you seem familiar to me, for some strange reason.

Mad_Monkey_King says:
::the monkeys screech and point, all holding miniature coconut guns. The King smiles broadly.:: 
CO: Give me the ballerina slippers fool! ::has noticed the slippers.::

The_Rag_Doll says:
::being menaced by minions::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::begins ducking and shrieking::

Tin_Man says:
Rag_Doll:  Hmmm... Quite... ::notice the minions menacing her::  Mind a lift?

Rocking_Horse says:
::rocks back and forth::

The_Rag_Doll says:
::wonders what's so special about those slippers, anyway::

Scarecrow says:
::Ripped to shreds::

The_Rag_Doll says:
Tin Man:  Thank you.

Mad_Monkey_King says:
All: You will all never reach the Transporter of ODD without giving me my slippers. I will be back!

Host Toto says:
Action: In a cloud of blue smoke, the Flying Monkey King Disappears.

Rocking_Horse says:
All: Did he say transporter?

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::sees the Scarecrow::  Minions: Leave him alone!!  Begins waving her/his hands in the air at them::

Rabbit says:
:: snickers at the disappeared MMK::

Tin_Man says:
::reaches down and lift the Rag Doll into his metal arms and turns to the man in the pink slippers::  MIPS:  Are we leaving yet?

The_Rag_Doll says:
All: I thinks he said transporter.

Mad_Monkey_King says:
::the monkeys follow the Monkey King.::

The_Rag_Doll says:

Scarecrow says:
ALL: Help, I have been ripped in two

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:

Scarecrow says:
CO: Thank you

Scarecrow says:
::Wobbles down the red brick road::

Host Toto says:
Action: The lion is stabbed in the tail several times.

Tin_Man says:
::notices the Rabbit's limp and, slinging his axe across his back, reaches down picking him up to carry him in his other arm::

Lion says:
::sighs, immune to the pain after being bitten, stabbed, knifed, beaned, and thrown::

The_Rag_Doll says:
::wonders why they say the Tin Man doesn't have a heart::

Rabbit says:
:: feels the tin man pick him up and licks his hand inadvertently causing it to start rusting::

Host Toto says:
Action: The crew comes upon a grove of lemon trees. Hungry and exhausted, they decide to rest.

Rocking_Horse says:
CO: Are we there yet?

Tin_Man says:
::eyes the rabbit, but tries to forestall the rusting , moving his hand as the rest::

::Sits in the shade of a lemon tree::

Rocking_Horse says:
::feels like sitting down to rest, but she can only rock back and forth::

Mad_Monkey_King says:
::He is still shouldering his Big Banana, still wearing the Gold Fez of the Monkey King. He growls and roars yet again.:: All: Get out of my lemon tree grove!

The_Rag_Doll says:
Tin Man:  Thank you.  ::looks up with gratitude::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::sees the King:: MMK: What do you want?  Scare more innocent frightened toys and girls?  You should be ashamed.

Rocking_Horse says:
::wonders if that monkey guy thinks that everything is his::

Tin_Man says:
MMK:  Not a very good sport are you?

The_Rag_Doll says:
::picks up a fallen lemon and lobs it at the Monkey King::

Mad_Monkey_King says:
CO: Arghh! I will show you fool! ::his Banana, most sacred of objects, pulsates with power and black lightning strikes the trees as he waves it around.::
