Guest stars:

Sam (Multiple Personalities) Hung as SFI_Winters, SFI_Martin, & SFI_Letuik 
Gabe (I can only stay for a minute) De Paolo as OPS_Ididitagain
Jan (the truth is out there) Woody as Ens_Scully

Host ADM_Harlan says:
Synopsis:  The Pendragon continues to you orbit just outside of transporter range from the frozen world.  They have rescued the SFI who had been left on the planet before.  The medical staff is working hard to save his extremities.

On the planet, deep underground, the AT continues to dog the steps of the super soldiers.  They have entered another tunnel, this one older then the rest.  They have found a carving on the wall that reminds her of a Starfleet symbol.  One of the AT has died with his neck broken in his over exuberance.

Host ADM_Harlan says:
#<Red>ADM:  SFI sent out another officer.  They are determined to keep one there.  How did the hearing go?

FCO_Rofax says:
::nods and moves forward, hugging the wall::

EO_Pettigrove says:
::follows the team::

Host ADM_Harlan says:
#Red:  It is still going.  It could go either way.  I guess I should contact the Pendragon and see how things are going on there.

Host CO_Zax says:
CSO: Any luck in contacting the ship?

CMO_Daetalus says:
:: is moving with the group::

Host ADM_Harlan says:

XO_Bafii says:
@ SFI_Martin: Ah good, I was just about to call you :: motions to Ops to mute the comm ::

SFI_Winters says:
&::Sends his authentication codes::

TO_Ens_McCloud says:
@::arrives on bridge and heads to Tactical:: CTO: I'm here.

OPS_Ididitagain says:
@::mutes the channel::

OPS_Ididitagain says:
@XO: Orders received... and authenticated sir.

SFI_Winters says:
&XO: Thank you.

Host ADM_Harlan says:
COMM:  Pendragon:  This is Admiral Harlan.

XO_Bafii says:
@ OPS: Thank you.    SFI_Martin: Looks like they are here to take Letuik and replace him.

Host CO_Zax says:
CSO: When you get through, inform them of our whereabouts and Mulder's death.

CTO_Kyrron says:
@TO:  Monitor this probe's data. ::points to the console::  and notify the XO if you see any signs of the AT.

CMO_Daetalus says:
:: keeps on scanning the tunnels ahead::

CSO_Gunther says:
::nods, tiredly trying again:: COM: Pendragon: Pendragon, this is Gunther, come in....

TO_Ens_McCloud says:
@CTO: Aye aye. ::watches it::

SFI_Martin says:
@XO: Really, That is fast they must have a ship close by.

Host ADM_Harlan says:
ACTION:  The Pendragon picks up the CSO's voice... but it is barely distinct.

OPS_Ididitagain says:
@COMM: CSO: Go ahead Lieutenant.  This is OPS.

XO_Bafii says:
@SFI_Martin:  See to the transfers.  Ops has cleared the orders, just check with medical on your injured agent.

CSO_Gunther says:
::hears the static:: COM: Pendragon: I'm sending our current coordinates with heavy error correction. And we lost Mulder a bit ago.

OPS_Ididitagain says:
@::tries to clear up the channel::

Host CO_Zax says:
CSO: Inform them of the tunnel collapse as well. They cannot attempt to follow us in, we'll have to find another way out.

CTO_Kyrron says:
@::overhears the comm from the planet and grins::

SFI_Martin says:
@XO: Thank you.  ::Makes a face at the CTO and hops on the Turbolift out::

CTO_Kyrron says:
@::follows Martin::

XO_Bafii says:
@ :: looks behind him :: CTO: Is that what I think it is?  :: excited ::

CSO_Gunther says:
::passes that message along also::

Host ADM_Harlan says:
::Looks over at Red::  Red:  Let me guess... no one is home?  ::Sighs::

OPS_Ididitagain says:
@::frowns:: COMM: CSO: Copied.  Do you need retrieval?

Ens_Scully says:
::shudders at hearing "We lost Mulder."  Wonders where the real Mulder is::

CSO_Gunther says:
::looks at the CO::

SFI_Martin says:
@::Hand near his Type I Phaser::

CTO_Kyrron says:
@::hears Bafii say something as she gets on the TL, but isn't sure what::

XO_Bafii says:
@ :: sees the light blinking on his console...  answers it quickly ::  COMM: Adm Harlan:  This is Commander Bafii.  What can I do for you Admiral?

FCO_Rofax says:
::continues scanning and walking and crouching and hiding, ready to empty his weapon::

Host CO_Zax says:
::shakes her head:: CSO: Would they be able to transport us out safely to regroup?

SFI_Martin says:
@CTO: Can I help you? ::Coldly::

CMO_Daetalus says:
:: moves towards the CO:: CO: Captain, I’m detecting an energy source which I don’t recognize.  It appears to be deep inside the planet.

Host ADM_Harlan says:
COMM:  XO:  Commander, nice to know someone is home.  I am calling to get an update on things and inform you of others.

CSO_Gunther says:
::wonders why the CO doesn't talk to the ship herself:: COM: Pendragon: Can you transport us out safely to regroup?

Ens_Scully says:
::goes back to the markings on the wall, analyzing them::

Host CO_Zax says:
::nods tightly:: EO: Scan and identify source, please.

CTO_Kyrron says:
@SFI:  Just keeping you company.  ::grins at him::

XO_Bafii says:
@ COMM:Adm Harlan: I'm sorry Admiral, you happened to call at the same time as our first contact with the Away Team.  We are getting an update now.

OPS_Ididitagain says:
@COMM:CSO: One moment.  Let me check.

EO_Pettigrove says:
CO:  Aye, Ma'am.  ::pulls out her tricorder and scans the area::

Host ADM_Harlan says:
ACTION:  The markings tell a story... if it could be read.

OPS_Ididitagain says:
@CTO: Sir.  The Away team is asking if we are able to transport them.

Host ADM_Harlan says:
COMM:  XO:  Then I will wait for you to have your update completed.  Contact me soon.  Harlan out.

Ens_Scully says:
::thinks the markings may mean something significant::

Host CO_Zax says:
::calls for Rofax to return::

TO2_Trget says:
::hasn't a clue what the markings mean and just wants to go home::

XO_Bafii says:
@ :: closes the channel with the Admiral, eager to hear of the away team  - heads over to OPS ::

OPS_Ididitagain says:
@*CTO* Sir.  The Away team is asking if we are able to transport them.

Host CO_Zax says:
CSO: Please examine the markings as well. Run them through all known language families.............

TO_Ens_McCloud says:
OPS: The CTO isn't here.

XO_Bafii says:
@ OPS: What is the Away Team's status?

OPS_Ididitagain says:
@XO: I am still talking with them.  Do you wish to speak with them?

CTO_Kyrron says:
@*TO*:  See if you can use the probe to boost the transporters.

FCO_Rofax says:
::turns on his heel and retraces his steps in the footprints already there::

CSO_Gunther says:
CO: I won't be able to do that properly until we have proper ship-ground communications. I've already recorded them, though.

XO_Bafii says:
@ OPS: Yes, put them on speakers

SFI_Winters says:
&COMM: Pendragon: We are beside you Commander and is ready for transport.

Host CO_Zax says:
::sighs and nods::

TO_Ens_McCloud says:
@*CTO*: Yes, Ma'am.

CTO_Kyrron says:
@::still following the SFI agent around::

Ens_Scully says:
CO: These markings, Captain, seem to indicate something about how the original creators came to be on this planet

Host CO_Zax says:
EO: The Founders?

TO_Ens_McCloud says:
@::works on transporters with the probe::

OPS_Ididitagain says:
@COMM: CSO: Lieutenant, the Commander will speak with you now.  ::puts them on main speakers::  You are on with him now.

SFI_Martin says:
@::Walks into Sickbay:: CTO: You like me or something? Following me?

XO_Bafii says:
@ :: nods to OPS ::  COMM:CSO: This is Bafii... what's your status?

Ens_Scully says:
CO: If I am interpreting this correctly, they came here over 10,000 years ago.

CSO_Gunther says:
::repeats what he told OPS to the XO::

Host CO_Zax says:
COMM: XO: Bafii, it is good to hear your voice. ::motions the CSO that she'll take it from here::

Host ADM_Harlan says:
ACTION:  The super solders, deep into the planet, fight the extreme heat of an underground lava river.

CSO_Gunther says:
::relinquishes comm control gladly::

EO_Pettigrove says:
CO:  Sir I can't identify the source or type of energy I'm reading here.  I'll keep trying to find out though.

XO_Bafii says:
@ COMM: CO: Likewise Captain.  I was starting to wonder if you were avoiding me.  :: smiles ::

Host CO_Zax says:
COMM:XO: You should be so lucky. Any chance of clearing up the COMM? We need to run some things past Lt. Kyrron..........

Ens_Scully says:
CSO: These markings may indicate a solution to our problem.

SFI_Martin says:
@::Goes over to Letuik and looks at him:: Letuik: You're leaving my friend.

CSO_Gunther says:
::doubts it, but moves over to investigate the claim::

Host ADM_Harlan says:
<Soldier> All:  I wonder how anything could survive down here let alone someone bring it to this depth.  Are we sure we have the right directions?

Ens_Scully says:
CSO: See?  They indicate how the original creators got here over 10,000 years ago.

XO_Bafii says:
@ COMM: CO: We are working on it - we sent a probe to the surface to act as a go between.  I'm having Tactical work on it.  :: motions to McCloud to call Kyrron to the bridge, immediately ::

CTO_Kyrron says:
@::watches the two SFI agents::

TO_Ens_McCloud says:
@*CTO* Ma'am, You're needed on the bridge.

Host CO_Zax says:
COMM:XO: We could certainly use her expertise.

CTO_Kyrron says:
@::sighs::  *TO*:  On my way.  ::heads to TL::

SFI_Martin says:
@COMM: Gravel: Start transport of Agent Letuik

XO_Bafii says:
@ COMM: CO:  What's the situation Captain?  Are you in need of reinforcement?

Host CO_Zax says:
COMM: We need to transport Q'On up to the ship. He's been injured twice. We could use more supplies as well.

Ens_Scully says:
<Soldier> Soldier1: I don't know.  I'll confirm.

TO_Ens_McCloud says:
@::looks at the XO:: XO:She's coming.

CSO_Gunther says:
::nods:: ENS: Isotope dating comes up with roughly that age.

CMO_Daetalus says:
:: is watching what is going on::

CTO_Kyrron says:
@::arrives on bridge::

XO_Bafii says:
@ COMM: CO: We'll start working on it.  Here's Kyrron now Captain.

SFI_Martin says:
@::Sees Letuik De-Materialize::

Host CO_Zax says:
COMM: CTO: You have been brought up to date?

Host ADM_Harlan says:
ACTION:  The transport is completed and the personal switched.

EO_Pettigrove says:
::is still unable to identify the source of the energy source::

CSO_Gunther says:
::studies the glyphs....somatic? Symbolic structure? Alpha-based?::

CTO_Kyrron says:
@::looks at Bafii::  COMM:  CO:  Sort of, Sir.  What can I do to help?

SFI_Winters says:
@Martin: Agent Martin: We got 2 Minutes

Host CO_Zax says:
COMM:CTO: I am having Scully send you the data we have so far.

XO_Bafii says:
@:: moves up to Tactical and McCloud ::  TO: Use the probe as a booster to transport supplies to the AT... also send a set of transport enhancers with it.  Work quickly!

XO_Bafii says:
@ :: gives Tria the "you know as much as I do so far " look ::

Ens_Scully says:
::sends data to Pen for analysis::

Host CO_Zax says:
COMM:CTO: As soon as you can safely do so, we'll need you down here to lead the Tac force. With Mulder dead, T'Arget is in charge.

CTO_Kyrron says:
@::goes to a console and watches the data upload::

SFI_Martin says:
@::Runs to the Blackbox::

SFI_Winters says:
@::Follows Martin to the Blackbox::

CTO_Kyrron says:
@COMM:  CO:  T'rget is in charge?  God, no!

XO_Bafii says:
@ FCO_NoOne: Move us to within transporter range

Host CO_Zax says:
COMM: Pen: He is lead TAC officer. He's all we've got.

FCO_Rofax says:
@ <FCO_NoOne> XO: Aye sir.

CTO_Kyrron says:
@COMM:  CO:  Has he accidentally shot himself yet?

EO_Pettigrove says:
::looks at the CO:: CO:  Ma'am, I was a tactical officer on my last assignment.  Can I be of assistance?

Host ADM_Harlan says:
ACTION:  Across the river of fire, the soldiers see a platform hovering off the ground.  Upon it something gleams.

SFI_Winters says:
@::Walks into Chamberlains Quarters::

FCO_Rofax says:
@ <FCO_NoOne> ::hits keystrokes and quickly lays in retreat course as well::

Ens_Scully says:
<Soldier2>: Soldier1: See that platform.  I wonder what that thing on it is?

Host CO_Zax says:
::lowers her voice:: COMM:CTO: Not yet. Although he has been vomiting again......

SFI_Martin says:
@Blackbox: Recognize Agent Sam Martin, Tactical Specialist

CTO_Kyrron says:
@::rolls eyes::  COMM:  CO:  I'll be there as soon as I can, Sir.

Host ADM_Harlan says:
<Soldier> All:  Probably what we have been looking for.  The question is, how to get to it.  ::Looks around at his 'brothers'.::

Host CO_Zax says:
CSO: Analysis?

FCO_Rofax says:
@ <FCO_NoOne> ::moves the Pen into position:  XO: Ready sir.

CSO_Gunther says:
::shrugs:: CO: Just that it's about 10,000 years old.

CTO_Kyrron says:
@XO:  With your permission, I'm heading down to the transporter room.

Host CO_Zax says:
::nods::

Host CO_Zax says:
All: Let's go.

CSO_Gunther says:
CO: Not a "normal" language style, either.

Ens_Scully says:
<Soldier2>: Soldier1: Let's go take a look.  Anything is better than staying here.  Let's look for something to make into a bridge or something that can float across that river.

SFI_Winters says:
@Blackbox: Recognize Admiral Graham Miller Override, Authorization Gamma-Gamma-Gamma-2-Break

CMO_Daetalus says:
:: gets ready to follow in the group::

Host CO_Zax says:
CSO: Continue to work on it as we travel. Send data to the ship if possible.

TO2_Trget says:
::trembles::

XO_Bafii says:
@ <OPS_NoBody> :: Takes over for the TO and beams supplies and transport enhancers to the away team ::

EO_Pettigrove says:
::is ready to follow the team::

CSO_Gunther says:
CO: Whoaaa! Something else!

Host CO_Zax says:
::stops::

Host ADM_Harlan says:
ACTION:  The soldiers see nothing but rocks.

Host CO_Zax says:
CSO: Yes?

EO_Pettigrove says:
::turns as she hears the CSO::

CMO_Daetalus says:
:: packs his remaining things into the kit::

SFI_Winters says:
@<Blackbox>: Override Recognized, Team Reset, Please Designate Team Leader.

Host CO_Zax says:
::turns around and looks at Gunther::

CSO_Gunther says:
::steps up to the SF symbol:: CO: A very faint energy reading around this symbol. Barely picked it up.

Ens_Scully says:
<Soldier1>:Soldier2: Can you jump from rock to rock to get there?

CTO_Kyrron says:
@::not getting a response, heads off anyways.  Enters TL::

Host CO_Zax says:
::walks over::

XO_Bafii says:
@ CTO: Take what you need and prepare to head down.  I don't know if we can transport you to their coordinates however.

Host CO_Zax says:
::looks at the readings::

EO_Pettigrove says:
::gets out her tricorder and joins the CSO in scanning the symbol::

FCO_Rofax says:
Self: Those science types... always waiting until the last second before euphoria hits....

Ens_Scully says:
::looks where CSO is pointing:: Yes, I see it.

Host ADM_Harlan says:
<Soldier> ::Looks across at the 10 meter wide river of fire and back at his 'brother' with a raised eyebrow.::

SFI_Winters says:
@Blackbox: Agent Sam Martin, Team Leader. Agent John Winters, Tactical Specialist.

CTO_Kyrron says:
@::arrives in Transporter room loaded down with weapons and munchies::

Ens_Scully says:
<Soldier2>: Soldier1: I'm not that superhuman.

SFI_Winters says:
@<Blackbox>: Acknowledged.

Host ADM_Harlan says:
ACTION:  Supplies make it to the AT in various conditions.  One barely recognizable.

SFI_Winters says:
@::Walks out towards the bridge.::

Host CO_Zax says:
CSO: Is it safe to touch?

SFI_Martin says:
@::Follows Winters::

Ens_Scully says:
<Soldier1>Soldier 2: Where can we get a plank to serve as a bridge?  How about from that old ship?

Host CO_Zax says:
CSO: Perhaps it’s an access button of some sort?

XO_Bafii says:
@ <OPS_NoOne> XO: Some of the supplies made it through - but not everything.

CSO_Gunther says:
CO: The energy signature isn't particularly hazardous, but I wouldn't.

Host CO_Zax says:
CSO: A key pad?

CSO_Gunther says:
::shakes head::

FCO_Rofax says:
Self: Let's get T'rget to touch it....

Host ADM_Harlan says:
<Soldier>  With the Pendragon crew following?  Not likely.  Besides the ship was striped clean.  Maybe one of the old buildings, but the same problem.  Also, whatever we use will have to be able to withstand the heat and make it across.

XO_Bafii says:
@ *CTO* Kyrron - you are going to have to beam down away from the team and make your way in.  We can't even get supplies to them safely.

SFI_Martin says:
@::Arrives on the Bridge:: XO: Is there anything we can do?

SFI_Winters says:
@::Arrives on the bridge::

XO_Bafii says:
@ SFI: We have a probe on the surface working as a comm and transport relay - do what you can too boost it.

Host CO_Zax says:
::looks at the panel more closely::

CTO_Kyrron says:
@*XO*:  Understood.  Ready when you are.  ::steps onto transporter pad::

TO2_Trget says:
::wonders what everyone is looking at::

XO_Bafii says:
@ *CTO* Bring em all back Commander - is that understood?

Host CO_Zax says:
SO: Let the ship know that one of the supply packages was torn up in transport!

CSO_Gunther says:
CO: I mean, considering all the times anybody's ever found an energized carving in an old cave...has there ever been a GOOD result of touching it?

Host CO_Zax says:
::leans in even closer::

CTO_Kyrron says:
@::bites back the urge to say "no, I was planning on letting them all die::  *XO*:  Understood, Sir

Host CO_Zax says:
CSO: What are these tiny stones?

SFI_Winters says:
@Martin: A low intensity Phaser shot?

CMO_Daetalus says:
:: is looking around aimlessly::

Ens_Scully says:
::scans the stones::

EO_Pettigrove says:
CO:  I agree.  We don't know what this is or what affect it could have.

TO2_Trget says:
::squints and looks closer::

TO2_Trget says:
::touches one of the stones::

Host CO_Zax says:
::points to the very tiny stones embedded in the rock that have faint symbols around them::

XO_Bafii says:
@ *CTO* Then get going.  Bafii out.

Host ADM_Harlan says:
<Soldier>  What if we shoot it down?

Ens_Scully says:
CSO: Maybe the carvings can guide us in a less dangerous pursuit of touching the stones.

CMO_Daetalus says:
:: also begins scanning::

CSO_Gunther says:
::figures he needs to have his optic nerves examined if he gets back up to the ship, and scans the new, sudden appearance::

CTO_Kyrron says:
@::nods to the transporter chief indicating readiness::

Host ADM_Harlan says:
ACTION:  The energy source increases.

SFI_Martin says:
@Winters: Maybe?

Ens_Scully says:
CSO: reading a buildup of energy

EO_Pettigrove says:
CMO/CSO:  I'm reading an increase in energy levels.

CSO_Gunther says:
SELF: Oh, great. ::steps back, scanning from an ever-increasing distance::

CTO_Kyrron says:
@<Transporter chief>:: initiates transport::

FCO_Rofax says:
@ <FCO_NoOne> ::sees the transport is complete::  XO: Shall I resume our previous position, Cmdr?

XO_Bafii says:
@ COMM:CO: Commander Kyrron is on her way.

CMO_Daetalus says:
:: slowly begins to back away after continuing scans::

TO2_Trget says:
::sticks out his hand to poke at another one::

Host CO_Zax says:
CSO: Could it be a key pad? Can you program the tricorder to run random sequences on the stones?

SFI_Martin says:
@XO: Can we try a low intensity phaser shot? Or a deflector shot?

Ens_Scully says:
::grabs Trgt's hand away:  Watch it, Ensign!

EO_Pettigrove says:
::backs off too ... but continues to scan::

XO_Bafii says:
@FCO: Affirmative.  :: quietly::  More sitting and waiting... just what I love.

TO2_Trget says:
::looks startled::

FCO_Rofax says:
@ <FCO_NoOne> XO: Aye sir.  ::quickly moves the Pen out of transporter range::

Host CO_Zax says:
::grabs T'Argets ear:: TO: Hold on a minute!

CSO_Gunther says:
CO: Do you think that's wise? And we don't know what would activate them, if anything does.

TO2_Trget says:
CO:  Ouch!

XO_Bafii says:
@ SFI: I want a consistent boost - not a one-time bump.  What has the better odds of working?

Host ADM_Harlan says:
::Taps her fingers on her desk wondering if she was as much of a headache to her admiral as the Pendragon could be to her.::

SFI_Martin says:
@XO: Deflector Boost...

FCO_Rofax says:
@ <FCO_NoOne> ::find an old padd stuck under his console, hits a few keys, and the word "PONG" scrawls across it::

XO_Bafii says:
@ :: settles in his chair ::   SFI: Proceed

XO_Bafii says:
@ OPS: Open a channel to Admiral Harlan

Ens_Scully says:
Tr'gt: Maybe you should consider guarding us from any intruders?

XO_Bafii says:
@ <OPS_NoBody> XO: Aye, channel open

CSO_Gunther says:
::looks at her unflinching face and sighs, setting up all sorts of dangerous random emission patterns::

XO_Bafii says:
@ COMM:Admiral Harlan:  Bafii to Admiral Harlan

SFI_Winters says:
@::Walks over to the FCO:I'll take that. ::Takes the PONG Padd::

TO2_Trget says:
::glares at Scully before stepping back and shouldering his phaser rifle::

Host ADM_Harlan says:
COMM:  This is Admiral Harlan.  How are things going there Commander? Where is your captain?

Ens_Scully says:
::smiles pleasantly at T'rgt::  I just don't want any more of us to die.

FCO_Rofax says:
@ <FCO_NoOne> ::shrugs, not quite sure what it was::

Host ADM_Harlan says:
ACTION:  Nothing the tricorder does alters the increased power.

SFI_Martin says:
@::Boosts the signal of the transporter with the Deflector beam::

Host CO_Zax says:
Scully: Find out where Kyrron is!

Host ADM_Harlan says:
<Soldier> All:  If we don't get our tails in gear, this will all be for nothing.

CSO_Gunther says:
CO: No effect.

XO_Bafii says:
@ COMM: Adm Harlan: Captain Zax is on the surface leading the away team.  They are still in pursuit of the soldiers.  Lieutenant Commander Kyrron has just beamed down to join them.

Host CO_Zax says:
::eyes the stones again::

Host ADM_Harlan says:
COMM:  XO:  They are still in pursuit?  Do you have an estimated time to when they MIGHT be back?

Ens_Scully says:
CO: Aye, Captain.

XO_Bafii says:
@ COMM: Adm Harlan: No Admiral, I do not.

Host ADM_Harlan says:
ACTION:  The transporter beams the CTO down at the entrance to the Pendragon.

Ens_Scully says:
::scans vicinity for CTO::

EO_Pettigrove says:
::looks at the stones trying to see if there's a pattern here::

Ens_Scully says:
CO: Picking up some signs of her near the entrance to the Pen.

TO2_Trget says:
::overcome with curiosity, runs up and pushes all the buttons::

Host ADM_Harlan says:
COMM: XO:  And their status?

CTO_Kyrron says:
::looks around and shivering goes in, following the trail of the AT::

XO_Bafii says:
@ COMM: Adm Harlan: One AT member dead, one injured, the rest are doing fine.  They are currently in ancient tunnels deep within the planet

Ens_Scully says:
CTO: Commander Kyrron, respond please :: slaps comm badge::

Host ADM_Harlan says:
ACTION:  Another surge of power is read.

CSO_Gunther says:
CO: Another power surge... ::frowns::

EO_Pettigrove says:
CSO/CMO/CO:  Energy levels increasing.  It's surging again

CMO_Daetalus says:
CO: Captain, another power surge

Host CO_Zax says:
::gives T'Arget an evil look::

Host ADM_Harlan says:
COMM:  XO:  What tunnels?  That planet has surveyed as an ice world.

CTO_Kyrron says:
*Scully*:  I'm just in the entrance of the ship.

FCO_Rofax says:
Self: Time to move... time to move... time to move...

TO2_Trget says:
::wonders why the CO is giving him an evil look::

XO_Bafii says:
@ COMM: AdmHarlan: The surveys were wrong.  There is an ancient tunnel system apparently.

Ens_Scully says:
*CTO* Glad you transported safely, Ma'am. :: gives directions to get to the AT::

Host ADM_Harlan says:
ACTION:  One of the soldiers jumps back as he sees the platform begin to move.

CTO_Kyrron says:
::trudges on through the ship following the track and noticing a few disarmed booby traps::

XO_Bafii says:
@COMM: AdmHarlan: I'll have the data transmitted to you.

Host CO_Zax says:
::spoken through gritted teeth:: TO: Should you as much as breath on that panel again, I will personal take out my phaser and cut off your lobes. Do I make myself clear, Ensign?

Host ADM_Harlan says:
COMM:  XO:  Very well.  I will get a federation team over there.  In the meantime, tell your captain to be safe.  Have her contact me as soon as she gets aboard.

XO_Bafii says:
@ COMM:AdmHarlan: Aye Admiral.  Pendragon out.

TO2_Trget says:
::looks sheepish::

XO_Bafii says:
@ SFI: Any luck?

Host CO_Zax says:
ALL: Ideas?

Host ADM_Harlan says:
::Turns to look at Red and sees him setting up to receive the data.  Nods and turns to look out her window towards the direction the Pendragon is at.::

CMO_Daetalus says:
:: continues scanning::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::still trudging along comes across a collapsed tunnel.  Scans it::

XO_Bafii says:
@ <OPS_NoBody> :: sends the data to the Admiral ::

CSO_Gunther says:
CO: I suggest we send a full science team down here after we complete our actual mission.

SFI_Martin says:
@XO: Possibly

Host ADM_Harlan says:
<Soldier> All:  Now what?

Host CO_Zax says:
::nods::

XO_Bafii says:
@ SFI: Excellent, a completely gray answer.  Care to be a bit more verbose.

Host CO_Zax says:
ALL: Move out.

Ens_Scully says:
::moves::

Host ADM_Harlan says:
<Soldier> ::Watches as the platform slowly moves across the lava river::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::stands way back and fires a phaser at the collapsed thingie::

TO_Ens_McCloud says:
@::isn't really awake::

Host CO_Zax says:
Scully: Keep the CTO appraised of our coordinates.

SFI_Martin says:
@XO: I am slowly boosting the power if I boost the power too fast it'll blow up the probe

EO_Pettigrove says:
::speaks as she moves out::  CO:  Captain, this power source obviously controls something.   It could be what the soldiers are looking for.  If we can find that we may get some answers.

FCO_Rofax says:
CO: Aye Captain.  ::moves out with a spring in his step, ready to get away from the surge::

Host Soldier says:
All:  As it passes, try to jump aboard.

Ens_Scully says:
*CTO* We are moving out.  ::gives directions::

Host CO_Zax says:
EO: Be that it may, Ensign. We need to find them now.

CSO_Gunther says:
EO: If they're looking for this, we'll meet them on the way, won't we?

XO_Bafii says:
@ :: the irritation at being ship bound starting to show a bit :: SFI: Excellent... more than one word.  I'm proud.  Keep working at it.

Host Soldier says:
ACTION:  The CTO's phaser slowly opens a hole, but it is unstable and more rubble keeps falling into it.

CTO_Kyrron says:
*Scully*:  Acknowledged.  I'm stuck behind a collapse at the moment.

CTO_Kyrron says:
::groans::

Host CO_Zax says:
::follows Rofax as he jogs briskly, but carefully down the tunnel::

XO_Bafii says:
@ TO: Report on the AT status.

Ens_Scully says:
<Soldier1> Soldier2: I wonder if there is any instrumentation here that is making it move?

Host Soldier says:
ACTION:  The platform passes close to the soldiers.  They all jump onto it.

CMO_Daetalus says:
::keeps a scan lock on the FCO's lifesigns::

SFI_Martin says:
@::Wonders if the XO is joking or if he's serious::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::keeps blasting away at the rubble, quite sure she is never going to get through no matter what she does::

EO_Pettigrove says:
CSO:  Can we determine where this power is going?  I mean it has to be going somewhere?

Ens_Scully says:
::soldier1 begins slipping off the platform::

TO_Ens_McCloud says:
@::wakes up:: XO: Uh... Same area...

CSO_Gunther says:
EO: Without at least minimal excavation, I doubt it.

Host Soldier says:
ACTION:  The dust build up slowly evaporates before the phaser and a small opening near the top can be seen.

Ens_Scully says:
::soldier2 grabs him and pulls him back::

Ens_Scully says:
*CTO* Do you need assistance?

CTO_Kyrron says:
::sighs and climbs up to the hole::

FCO_Rofax says:
::activates wrist and weapon lights, illuminating the tunnel ahead::

Host Soldier says:
::Smiles at his brothers.::  All:  This is it.  ::Picks it up and remembering the pattern on the wall begins to tap a sequence of buttons.::  Ready?

XO_Bafii says:
@ TO: Apparently you have been taking communication lessons from our SFI friends here.  Great.  :: settles back into his chair looking through the data from the AT ::

CTO_Kyrron says:
*Scully*:  I think I've got it, thanks.

TO_Ens_McCloud says:
@XO: Sorry...

Host Soldier says:
ACTION:  The further down the tunnel the AT goes, the hotter it gets.

EO_Pettigrove says:
Self:  It's getting hotter ....

CTO_Kyrron says:
::climbs through the opening grateful for once that she is tiny::

Host CO_Zax says:
::unzips her jacket::

FCO_Rofax says:
::begins sweating at the increase in temperature::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::climbs down and continues on her way::

Ens_Scully says:
::takes off her jacket and ties it around her waste::

SFI_Martin says:
@::Taps in the right frequency::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::checks to see how far ahead the AT is::

EO_Pettigrove says:
::wipes the sweat out of her eyes::

Host Soldier says:
ACTION:  A slow build up of energy is felt by the soldiers.  The AT can hear a gut deep hum.
Host CO_Zax says:
::pushes her hair back from her face and secures it more tightly::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::feels a slight vibration and picks up the pace::

CSO_Gunther says:
::almost wishes he had less hair::

CMO_Daetalus says:
:: the heat reminds him of Vulcan::

EO_Pettigrove says:
::pulls out her tricorder and scans the area::

SFI_Martin says:
@::Looks at the readings::

CTO_Kyrron says:
*Scully*:  What's happening?

Host CO_Zax says:
::shrugs off her jacket as well::

Host Soldier says:
::Looks at the others, hoping he is keying in the correct sequence.::

SFI_Winters says:
@::Checks the rotation::

TO_Ens_McCloud says:
@::notes the very few people here::

Host CO_Zax says:
::considers offering Gunther something to tie up his hair with::

Ens_Scully says:
*CTO* We are experiencing an increase in temperature.

Host Soldier says:
::His hand hovers over the last one.::

Host CO_Zax says:
FCO: Report?

FCO_Rofax says:
::removes his jacket and tosses it aside:: Self: Don't need that anymore....

CTO_Kyrron says:
::emerges in what seems to be a city.  Looks around in amazement before continuing on::

SFI_Martin says:
@::Misses the CTO and her funny face contest::

CMO_Daetalus says:
:: continues to wipe sweat from his brow::

FCO_Rofax says:
CO: Visuals are limited Captain....  unsure what is on scans... I dropped my tricorder some time ago....

Host CO_Zax says:
::hands him hers::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::following the AT's tracks at a fast run::

Host Soldier says:
ACTION:  As the last key is tapped, an energy wave envelops the super soldiers and they vanish, leaving behind the hovering platform and device.

TO_Ens_McCloud says:
@::by some unknown reason, hears the SFIs thought and glares at him::

XO_Bafii says:
@ :: suddenly something starts to click as he looks at the glyphs sent up by the away team - he moves to one of the vacant SCI stations ::

Host CO_Zax says:
::grimaces as the sweat begins to run down her back::

XO_Bafii says:
@ Computer: Display all glyphs recorded by the away team, in order of discovery

SFI_Martin says:
@::Looks at the TO:: TO: Yes?

FCO_Rofax says:
::begins scanning ahead, looking for anything::

Host Soldier says:
ACTION:  The AT steps out into a large cavern, lit by the blood red glow of a lava stream.  Sweat drips from their bodies.

TO_Ens_McCloud says:
@::shakes his head and continues to watch AT::

CMO_Daetalus says:
ALL: Hey is it hot in here or is it me?? :: grins::

Ens_Scully says:
::scans the lava stream::

FCO_Rofax says:
::does not see the soldiers::

Host Soldier says:
<COMPUTER> XO:  Acknowledged.

CSO_Gunther says:
::resists the urge to shove the CMO into the lava::

XO_Bafii says:
@ No_One_In_Particular:  It’s a story... I can see it now.

Host Soldier says:
ACTION:  The platform slowly returns across the river of fire and hovers there, a vague trace of alien energy all that can be detected.

SFI_Martin says:
@::Looks around::

FCO_Rofax says:
:: moves closer to the stream and eyes the platform::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::running as fast as she can hoping she gets there soon::

Host CO_Zax says:
::resist the urge to take off her shirt as well....and to smack the CMO::

CMO_Daetalus says:
:: is watching the Platform move::

Ens_Scully says:
All: There's a vague trace of energy.  Perhaps the soldiers transported out?

CSO_Gunther says:
CO: Captain, you're not thinking.....

XO_Bafii says:
@ <N.O.I.P>  :: just goes about his janitorial duties ::

FCO_Rofax says:
ALL: But to where?  and when?  ::already knows the answer::

Host CO_Zax says:
::grins:: CSO: Scan it please.

Host Soldier says:
ACTION ::Out in the city, the CTO feels a gentle 'breeze' pass her by.::

XO_Bafii says:
@ Computer: Display a sample of Fribrini glyphs next to these

CSO_Gunther says:
::scans with a foreboding sense of doom::

Host CO_Zax says:
SO: Contact Tria. Get her here fast.

FCO_Rofax says:
::begins plotting a way to get onto the platform::

Host Soldier says:
<COMPUTER> XO:  Acknowledged.  ::A set of glyphs appears and matches some of those recorded by the AT::

SFI_Martin says:
@::Transceiver starts up:: *Blackbox*:Martin: Agent Martin, report from Starfleet Intelligence, Please return to receive intel report.

Ens_Scully says:
*CTO* Here are our coordinates.  Please move here with all possible speed.

CMO_Daetalus says:
:: slowly moves towards the platform scanning it::

EO_Pettigrove says:
::thinks::  CSO:  Do you think those stones we passed operate this platform?

Host Soldier says:
ACTION:  The ship sensors (should anyone be watching) picks up an alien energy flow passing around the planet.

CTO_Kyrron says:
*Scully*:  I'm trying.  I just don't seem to be getting anywhere.

XO_Bafii says:
@ Computer: Search database for any similar glyph systems.

CTO_Kyrron says:
::keeps running::

SFI_Martin says:
@::Looks at Winters and heads for the Blackbox::

TO_Ens_McCloud says:
@XO: Alien Energy flow! Passing around the planet!

SFI_Winters says:
@::Takes Martin's Station::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::arrives at the lava flow and sees the AT::

XO_Bafii says:
@ COMM:CO: Captain what's happening - we are reading an energy enveloping the planet

CTO_Kyrron says:
::waves madly::   ALL:  Hi!

XO_Bafii says:
@FCO_NoOne: Keep us at a safe distance, but be prepared to go in and pick up the AT

Host CO_Zax says:
::looks up as Kyrron arrives::

Host Soldier says:
ACTION:  The ship sensors read abundant life on the planet along with power sources.

Ens_Scully says:
::relieved to see CTO, waves::

FCO_Rofax says:
Self:  Thank goodness, she's safe....

CTO_Kyrron says:
::takes a long, meaningful look at Rofax::

TO_Ens_McCloud says:
@::forwards the info to the XO::

FCO_Rofax says:
::quietly::  CTO: Are you okay?

SFI_Winters says:
@::Takes a look::

CTO_Kyrron says:
FCO:  Yes.  I'm so relieved to see you.

CMO_Daetalus says:
:: moves towards the CTO:: CTO: Welcome

XO_Bafii says:
@ COMM: CO: Captain, we are reading....  abundant life on the planet surface... power signals... my goodness

CTO_Kyrron says:
CMO:  Hey, Doc!

Ens_Scully says:
::briefs CTO on the situation::

EO_Pettigrove says:
::overhears:: Self:  What??

Host CO_Zax says:
::sighs and rolls up her shirt slightly as well as her pants legs::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::listens carefully to Scully::

Host CO_Zax says:
COMM:Pen: Clarify, please.

FCO_Rofax says:
CTO: They're gone.... ::waves arm dismissingly at the platform::

TO_Ens_McCloud says:
@XO: There's an entire civilization down there!

CTO_Kyrron says:
Thinks to self:  All that for nothing?

SFI_Martin says:
@::Reads the Intel report on the PADD:: Self: geez, and its gone...

XO_Bafii says:
@ COMM:CO: After the energy enveloped the planet, things changed... now there is an entire society on the planet Captain.

Host CO_Zax says:
COMM: Pen: Beam us up now!

CTO_Kyrron says:
::looks at Rofax some more::

FCO_Rofax says:
::ears perk up at the transmission::

XO_Bafii says:
@TO: You heard them - lock on

CMO_Daetalus says:
::looks up in wonder::

XO_Bafii says:
@ FCO_NoOne: Take us in

Host CO_Zax says:
::really, really needs to get into a cool shower::

FCO_Rofax says:
@ <FCO_NoOne> XO: Aye sir!

XO_Bafii says:
@COMM:CO: we're coming Captain.  Captain, also the duplicate Pendragon no longer exists

Host CO_Zax says:
CSO: Explanation?

CTO_Kyrron says:
::wonders if Rofax would like to get into a cool shower with her::

Ens_Scully says:
::wonders who Breedion will be::

FCO_Rofax says:
@ <FCO_NoOne> ::moves into orbit::

Host Breedion says:
COMM: Pendragon:  This is Breedion of the planet I'azia.  May we be of assistance?

Host CO_Zax says:
::wants to see if he agrees with her::

CSO_Gunther says:
::shrugs:: CO: I have no idea. I'll probably be spending weeks figuring out what happened.

XO_Bafii says:
@ TO: Beam up the away team

Host CO_Zax says:
::grins::

TO_Ens_McCloud says:
@XO: Aye.. ::taps a few buttons:: Trying!

FCO_Rofax says:
~~~ ::hears something and is not sure if it was real or imagined:: ~~~

SFI_Winters says:
@::Records everything in his transceiver::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::suddenly remembers how telepathic Rofax is and blushes::

TO_Ens_McCloud says:
@XO: ::gulps:: The probe..... is gone.

FCO_Rofax says:
::odd looks crawl across his face as he looks at Tria, then he begins to grin::

XO_Bafii says:
@ COMM: Breedion:  Breedion, I am Commander Bafii of the USS Pendragon.    It is a long story, but we are trying to retrieve members of our crew from your planet.

XO_Bafii says:
@TO: Then launch another - post haste

Host CO_Zax says:
::orders the team back the way they came::

CSO_Gunther says:
::prepares for another long hike::

TO_Ens_McCloud says:
@XO: OK OK! I'm trying! ::works on getting another probe out...::

EO_Pettigrove says:
::turns around and heads back the way they came::

Host CO_Zax says:
::will be truly glad to get home::

CMO_Daetalus says:
:: moves back towards the underground tunnels::

Host Breedion says:
COMM: Pendragon:  Crew on our planet?  ::sounds confused::  We were not aware that you had any people down here.  We just now picked you up on our sensors.  We are still trying to figure that one out.

FCO_Rofax says:
::turns around and begins huffing it double-time::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::follows along::

CTO_Kyrron says:
Thinks to self:  Nice buns...

SFI_Winters says:
@::Prepares another probe::

XO_Bafii says:
@ COMM: Breedion: It is a shock on all sides.  If you give me a few moments, I will be glad to contact you again and fill in the blanks.

CMO_Daetalus says:
:: will be glad to get back to the ship::

XO_Bafii says:
@ :: has OPS mute the connection  and contact SFC for guidance on dealing with this ::

TO_Ens_McCloud says:
@::launches another probe::

Host Breedion says:
COMM:  Pendragon:  You and your crew are welcome to join us.  We have always enjoyed a good tale.

Host CO_Zax says:
::smiles as she and the crew begin the long trip home, secure that their future has been forever changed::

Host Breedion says:
