U.S.S. Pendragon
10308.23

Guest Starring:

Jules as FCO_W`rngway.
  kate as EO_Mixup.
  Gilles as Something.
Jan as MO_Tribble.
Joseph as SO_Guill.

Host Coot_ says:
The Pendragon has been ordered to the Scientific Outpost, ST-687, to investigate the lack of contact with SF Command over the past 10 days.  The Staff was working on an experimental drug that was claimed to grant temporary telepathic abilities to individuals injected with the serum.

Host Coot_ says:
The importance of this research cannot be overstated and it is dire that this information not falls into enemy hands.  Make all due haste to investigate and uncover the reasons for our lack of contact.  The trip will take approximately 96 hours, and the next nearest vessel in the cargo transport, Icabod,  some 3 weeks away.

Host Coot_ says:
Communication itself has always been a struggle with this region of space and communications are typically received no longer than 72 hours after transmission.  Please bear this in mind, should you need assistance.

CNS_Luchena says:
::sighs::  *CEO*:  Turbolift down.

CNS_Luchena says:
::tries to exit the TL but the doors don't open::

FCO_W`rngway says:
CO:  Well, Sir, I entered the commands to slow to impulse and they didn't respond right away as they usually do.  We are slowing, just not at the rate we should be.

CEO_Stockburn says:
:: is crawling around a TL looking for a crossed wire::

Host Coot_ says:
ACTION: The CEO finds nothing wrong.

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::raises an eyebrow:: FCO: You'd best mention that to Stockburn. Coordinate with him, if needed.

EO_Mixup says:
::Hums to herself and reads over the engineering console::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CO: What do we know about this region of space, Sir.  I mean, could something here be interfering with ships systems?

CMO_Shiar says:
<Dr. Nick> :: walks up to replicator :: Comp: bucket of cold water

FCO_W`rngway says:
CO:  Aye Sir.

CNS_Luchena says:
*CO*:  I'm stuck in a malfunctioning turbolift, Captain.  I'll be delayed.

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
*CNS*: Like hell you will. OPS: Beam him directly to the bridge and get that lift fixed.

FCO_W`rngway says:
*CEO* :  Chief, I seem to be getting a delay in response from the engines.  Would you take a look at it?

CSO_Toms says:
CO: Sir, I can only find 7 life forms... I have no sign of an 8th. I’m running a diagnostic of the sensors now to see if anything is wrong..

CNS_Luchena says:
::senses a presence nearby.  Looks around but sees nothing in the lift::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::locks onto the Counselor and beams him to the bridge::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CSO:  That's strange ... I definitely read 8 life forms ...

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
CSO: Good idea, but somehow I suspect they're functioning properly.

SO_Guill says:
::finishes cleaning up the lab::

CMO_Shiar says:
<Dr. Nick> :: takes the bucket and tests the temp before pouring it on Shiar's head::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
OPS/CSO: Which is it, 7 or 8?

OPS_Pettigrove says:
*CEO*:  Bridge to Engineering.  We have a malfunctioning turbolift that needs your attention.

Host Coot_ says:
ACTION: The CNS appears on the bridge... his hair is rather mussed.

CNS_Luchena says:
::shakes the water out of his hair::

SO_Guill says:
::gets a data pad, checking for anything else that needed to be done::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
CNS: The crew seems to be a bit confused as to the outpost personnel...what can you sense?

CSO_Toms says:
CO: As you say, they are functioning properly, though there’s a minor glitch in the EPS relay near OPS, maybe that had something to do with the faulty reading??

CMO_Shiar says:
:: sits up with a start:: Dr. Nick: what? I wasn't sleeping, I was resting my eyes.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CO:  That's the strange part.  My first scans showed 7 life forms ... but secondary scans clearly showed 8 life forms ...

CSO_Toms says:
CO: And I’m definitely not reading the 8th

CNS_Luchena says:
CO:  I sensed something in the turbolift.  ::focuses on the outpost::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
CSO/OPS: I suppose yet another call to engineering is in order.

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
CNS: The turbolift?

CEO_Stockburn says:
:: finding the wire miraculously fixed he hears the com:: *OPS*: Understood, I’m on my way.  Stockburn out.

FCO_W`rngway says:
CO:  Aye Sir.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CSO:  Negative.  All diagnostics show no malfunctions ... and I am positive I read 8 life forms.

EO_Mixup says:
::Wonders where the CEO disappeared too::

CTO_Hull says:
CO:  Captain, there is only one way to actually find out...

CEO_Stockburn says:
:: he begins his trek back to ME for his kit::

CNS_Luchena says:
::looks at Kerina::  CO:  A presence.  I might have been wrong though.  ::makes a twirly motion around his head with a finger::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CO:  Agreed.  We need to go over there.

FCO_W`rngway says:
:: nods at the COM : CO:  Captain, the CEO is on his way.

MO_Tribble says:
CMO: Orders, Sir?

CSO_Toms says:
OPS: I’m not going to argue with you ma'am, but I don't read the 8th, and diagnostics are reading fine here to...

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
CNS: You tend to have pretty good instincts.

SO_Guill says:
*CSO*: Ens Guill here sir, anything you need done down here in the lab?

CNS_Luchena says:
CO:  I sense seven humanoids, all known species on the outpost.

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
FCO: Take us to within 10k of the station and put hold us there.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CSO:  See if you can scan for outside influences ... something that could fool our sensors ...

FCO_W`rngway says:
:: nods :: CO:  Aye Sir, 10k.

CMO_Shiar says:
MO: I need you to do a complex triple bypass on Mr. Smith in the operating room. it going to take steady hands and I know you're the one for the job.

CEO_Stockburn says:
:: as he emerges from the TL tube, he grabs his kit then heads towards the damaged TL Tube::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::stares at the view screen, seemingly off in another world all of the sudden::

CNS_Luchena says:
::watches Kerina::

EO_Mixup says:
CEO: where you off to sir?

MO_Tribble says:
CMO: A triple bypass?   ::gulps:: Yes, sir!

CNS_Luchena says:
::looks puzzled::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::isn't even blinking::

CSO_Toms says:
*SO*: Actually yes, Ens, I would like you to do a very detailed analysis of the data from the sensors, in particular SCI 1 and OPS.. I want you to check for any possible interference or sources not from the outpost

CNS_Luchena says:
::concentrates on Kerina more closely::

MO_Tribble says:
::goes to operating room and looks for Mr. Smith::

CNS_Luchena says:
CO:  Captain?

Host Coot_ says:
ACTION: The Pendragon slows to a stop at 10k, right on the mark.  The station is dimly lit, but appear to be normal.

CEO_Stockburn says:
EO:  I’m going to look and see what is making the TL malfunction.

SO_Guill says:
::excited::*CSO*: Yes sir! I'll....I'll get started right away!

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::blinks and shakes her head lightly, looking at Mikal with some alarm::

FCO_W`rngway says:
CO:  Holding at 10k Sir.

EO_Mixup says:
CEO: Can I help with anything

CMO_Shiar says:
:: laughs:: MO: I’m only messing with ya. I need you to help nurse Portman with the gash to Ens Jones' hand.

SO_Guill says:
::flops down in a chair, pulling up all sensor logs from OPS and SCI 1::

CNS_Luchena says:
::leans over and speaks softly::  CO:  Are you all right Captain?

CSO_Toms says:
OPS: I’ve got the lab staff working on a comparison of our to different data streams, see if they cant find the source of the discrepancy...

MO_Tribble says:
::doesn't go to the operating room::

Something says:
::looks in the air and feels them arrive::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::stares at Mikal for a moment:: ALL: Luchena, Hull, you're with me. Pettigrove, you have the bridge.

CEO_Stockburn says:
:: he waves for the EO to follow:: EO:  Of course, this way.

Something says:
::begins to float up::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CSO:  Good.  CO:  Aye, Sir.

CTO_Hull says:
CO;  Aye Captain

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
OPS: Is the lift working yet?

SO_Guill says:
::narrows it down to scans in the last 30 minutes, starts siphoning through the data::

MO_Tribble says:
CMO: Thanks.  ::goes to find Nurse Portman and Ens. Jones::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
*CMO*: Doctor, join us in the transporter room.

CNS_Luchena says:
::looks at Kerina with concern::

Something says:
::stretches out himself::

CTO_Hull says:
::follows his brave Captain::

EO_Mixup says:
Out loud: Sweet! :: jumps up and grabs an engineering kit and races to follow the CEO::

MO_Tribble says:
Jones: How did you do that to yourself?

Host Coot_ says:
ACTION: The Outpost appears to flicker as if a curtain flashed in front of it... but only those looking at the view screen saw it.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
*CEO*:  Bridge to Engineering.   you got that turbolift working yet?

CMO_Shiar says:
MO: you got sickbay

CMO_Shiar says:
:: exits and heads to a TL::  *CO*: on my way sir

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::heads for the lift, hoping it will open::

MO_Tribble says:
<Jones>::points at Nurse Portman:: SHE gave it to me!

CNS_Luchena says:
::follows Kerina still looking puzzled::

Host Andrew says:
::is getting bored playing with stupid ol' Poppins::

EO_Mixup says:
::Grumbles:: CEO: never a moments piece eh?

MO_Tribble says:
Jones: Oh? And what caused her to do that?

CEO_Stockburn says:
*OPS*: Heading there now, hope to have it fixed soon.

CNS_Luchena says:
::feels as if he is losing something profoundly important to him::

Host Coot_ says:
ACTION: The TL opens and music is heard coming from the overhead speaker.... something akin to London Bridge.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
*CEO*:  We need it now!

SO_Guill says:
::looks very closely at the data, looking for any discrepancies::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::raises the other eyebrow and steps into the lift with a little trepidation::

CMO_Shiar says:
Self: right...  TL: TR1

CTO_Hull says:
::Grabs his phaser and tricorder from the TL chief, heads for the TL platform::

Something says:
::floats up to the Pendragon::

Host Coot_ says:
ACTION: Andrew hears the music as well and has gotten very curious.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::looks over at the CO:: CO:  Sir, Engineering reports the lift isn't working yet ...

MO_Tribble says:
<Portman> He was trying to take me away from Dr. Shiar, my true love.

CNS_Luchena says:
::follows the CO::  Computer:  Stop music.

Host Andrew says:
:sneaks out of the room while Poppins is in the ladies' room::

Host Coot_ says:
<CPU> CNS: Please restate your command.

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
OPS: Maintain yellow alert and get the systems fixed...and transport us to the transporter room.

MO_Tribble says:
Portman: OK, well, let's just get his hand fixed up.

CEO_Stockburn says:
:: he begins to climb the latter to the lift::  EO: Never

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CO:  But, sir, according to my board the lift is fine ... ::shakes her head::

CNS_Luchena says:
::looks up at the speaker::  Computer:  turn off the music in the turbolift.

MO_Tribble says:
::takes out dermal regenerator and applies it to Jones::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
OPS: I certainly don't trust it right now.

Host Coot_ says:
ACTION: The TL doors close and it moves to Deck 2.... just outside Andrew's quarters.

EO_Mixup says:
::Follows behind the CEO, and gets a "very" good view, she continues to hum happily to herself::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CO:  Aye, Sir.  ::locks onto the CO and CNS and prepares to transport them to TR2::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::sighs lightly::

CNS_Luchena says:
::waits to see if the door is going to open::

MO_Tribble says:
Jones: I'd watch out.  Trying to steal Shiar's girlfriend.

Host Andrew says:
::looks at the lift doors and they open::

Host Coot_ says:
ACTION: The TL doors open and Andrew immediate begins to hum along.

CEO_Stockburn says:
:: he arrives near the lift and pulls a panel out and begins looking for a cause for its malfunction::  *OPS*:  I’m at the lift now and trying to ascertain its malfunction.

CNS_Luchena says:
::feels very uneasy::  Andrew:  Are you making the music happen?

Host Andrew says:
::shakes his head::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::watches and listens::

Something says:
::enters the lower decks of the Pendragon and looks around::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::and also listens::

Host Andrew says:
::sings along with a grin::

CNS_Luchena says:
*Poppins*:  Please collect Andrew from the turbolift.

EO_Mixup says:
::Sees that the CEO stops, and waits for some orders of some sort::

CNS_Luchena says:
Andrew:  You like this song?

Host Coot_ says:
ACTION: All power fails on the Pendragon.  However, the music continues on.

CMO_Shiar says:
:: exits TL and heads into TR1::

Host Andrew says:
::Andrew frowns::

CSO_Toms says:
::looks up at the loss of power::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::remarkably, doesn't frown::

Host Andrew says:
::looks at the pretty red haired lady::

FCO_W`rngway says:
Self:  What the...............

CEO_Stockburn says:
Self: What tha?? :: taps his Comm:: *Eng*:   What’s going on down there??

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::sees power fail:: ALL:  What the ... *CEO*:  What is going on down there!

CMO_Shiar says:
Self: hmmm

Host Coot_ says:
ACTION: The power returns and everything whirs back to life.

CNS_Luchena says:
::breathes a sigh of relief::

EO_Mixup says:
CEO: maybe I should have stayed in ME

MO_Tribble says:
::sees the power fail in sick bay:: ::sees it come back on::   Jones: OK, you're done, and just in time, too.

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
*OPS*: What now?

CNS_Luchena says:
Andrew:  You go back to Poppins, okay?

Host Coot_ says:
ACTION: The music is not so much as heard overhead, but more ~~~heard~~~ overhead.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CSO:  Full sensor scans.  I want to know everything about this region.

CTO_Hull says:
::looks over at the Captain, taps his own comm badge::  Wonderful!  what now?

CNS_Luchena says:
::looks up::

Host Andrew says:
::shakes his head solemnly and points at Kerina::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
*CO*:  Trying to find out, Sir.  We had a momentary power loss.  I'm still waiting to hear from Engineering.

FCO_W`rngway says:
All:  Would someone mind turning off that music?

CNS_Luchena says:
CO:  Is there something above the ship?

CSO_Toms says:
OPS: Aye ma'am. ::returns sensors to a detailed scan of the region::

CEO_Stockburn says:
:: shrugs:: EO: Maybe lets head back :: begins to climb down to the next deck, and then heads back to ME::

Host Coot_ says:
ACTION: Three life signs disappear from Deck 36.

MO_Tribble says:
<Nurse Portman> C'mere.  You're cute.

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
CNS: Open space, as far as the sensors know.

Something says:
::floats up a few decks::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
CNS: Why?

CNS_Luchena says:
Andrew:  What about the Captain?

EO_Mixup says:
::Climbs down:: CEO: hey , slow down, you are going to run me over

CNS_Luchena says:
::shakes his head::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
CNS: Either way, I find it suspect that these strange events have started as we've closed with the station.

Host Andrew says:
::sees Poppins coming and with a sigh walks back to her::

CNS_Luchena says:
::nods::  CO:  There is something here Captain.  Something our sensors can't detect.

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::feels the hair on the nape of her neck stand straight up and...hears?...feels?...something...::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
*CEO*:  Acknowledged.  Let me know as soon as possible.

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::turns slowly as if trying to see something through the walls::

CNS_Luchena says:
Andrew:  Stay safe little buddy.  See you soon.  ::waves at Andrew::

Host Coot_ says:
ACTION: A shadow engulfs Poppins and she is now gone.

EO_Mixup says:
::Moves towards ME::

Host Andrew says:
::stops dead and pops his thumb in his mouth::

CEO_Stockburn says:
*OPS*: Understood :: as he exits he heads towards ME::

Host Coot_ says:
ACTION: Poppins reappears three meters closer to Andrew as if nothing happened.

Host Andrew says:
::starts backing up to the turbolift as he eyes Poppins::

CSO_Toms says:
::notices strange readings on the in ship sensors:: OPS: Ma'am... were missing some people

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::Turns suddenly:: CSO:  How many! And from where?

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::looks at Poppins:: Poppins: Can you explain what just happened?

MO_Tribble says:
CMO: Anything else, Boss?

CMO_Shiar says:
:: assumes there is only the transporter chief in TR1::  chief: so, how's the family?

Something says:
::floats up more looking for more::

CNS_Luchena says:
Andrew:  Come here.  ::gets down on his knees and opens his arms to Andrew::

Host Coot_ says:
<Poppins> CO: Captain?

CEO_Stockburn says:
:: he enters ME and looks to the nearest EO:: EO:  What happened to my ship??

Host Andrew says:
::raises a chubby hand and sends Poppins hurtling away from him::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
Poppins: You just appeared out of thin air...you remember nothing?

CNS_Luchena says:
*CTO*:  Security to deck 2

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::eyes widen::

CSO_Toms says:
OPS: I have a count of three, and I believe from deck 36.. but I don’t know

Host Andrew says:
<Poppins> ::screams::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::looks at Andrew sternly:: Andrew: I don't know how you did that, but that is unacceptable!

Host Andrew says:
::turns and runs into Mikal's arms::

Something says:
::enters the bridge and looks around::

CNS_Luchena says:
CO:  He wouldn't have done it if it really was Poppins.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
*CO*:  Captain ... we've just lost 3 people from Deck 36!

Host CO_O`Dunn says:

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
*FCO*: Do what you can.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
~~~ Something:  Who are you?  Get out of me! ~~~

Something says:
<OPS> ::smiles as he/she locks the console and encrypts the lockout::

FCO_W`rngway says:
*CO*  I'll try.

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::looks at the CNS with a "follow me" look:: CNS/CTO: The doctor will have to do without us when he gets here. ::trots off toward a tube::

Something says:
~~~OPS: I am.... fear ~~~ ::laughs::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::can see inside the outpost ... ::

FCO_W`rngway says:
:: grabs OPS and tries to push her away ::

CNS_Luchena says:
CO:  Permission to wait behind until he gets here?  I don't want to leave Andrew with that.  ::points at Poppins::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
~~~ Something:  What have you done to them? ~~~

Something says:
::leaves OPS' body and enters the FCO's::

CTO_Hull says:
CO:  Captain, I'm locked out of my tactical console

Host Coot_ says:
ACTION: The FCO pushes, but she is one who goes flying.... directly into a bulkhead....

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::collapses to the floor as something leaves her body::

Something says:
<FCO> ::falls on the bulkhead::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::nods at the CNS as she ducks into a crawlspace and heads for engineering through a non-automated path::

FCO_W`rngway says:
:: hits the bulkhead and collapses ::

CMO_Shiar says:
:: exits TL to find the CO gone::  SELF: oh great! what is this, drag CMO round the ship day?

Something says:
<FCO> ::rises from the floor::

Something says:
<FCO> ::picks up the OPS officer and drags her to the turbolift::

CNS_Luchena says:
CMO:  Shiar, am I glad to see you.

CMO_Shiar says:
CNS: how can I be of assistance?

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::struggles against her captor:: All:  HELP!!!!!!!!

Host Coot_ says:
ACTION: The TL whizzes to the Bridge and opens to a Shadowy figure holding Pettigrove by the arm.

CSO_Toms says:
::stands looking at Pettigrove....::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::still struggling against the shadow::

CNS_Luchena says:
::points at Lt. Poppins::  CMO:  She disappeared, then reappeared slightly out of place.

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::still crawling through the ship::

CMO_Shiar says:
CNS: hmm, I’d expect to be more shocked if I wasn't on this ship so long.  :: scans Poppins::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::taps her comm badge with her free hand:: *CTO*:  Intruder Alert.  Security to the Bridge!!!!!!!

Something says:
<FCO> ::punches the OPS officer in the head::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::slumps to the floor::

CTO_Hull says:
*OPS*  Acknowledged

CNS_Luchena says:
CMO:  Andrew seemed to be frightened of her when she reappeared.  The kid is highly telepathic.  ::hugs Andrew proudly::

CTO_Hull says:
*<security>* :  Respond to the bridge, intruder alert

Host Coot_ says:
ACTION: Paths that didn't seem to exist before are now opening up in front of the CO.

CMO_Shiar says:
Self: telepaths...

CNS_Luchena says:
::smiles and winks at Andrew::

CTO_Hull says:
<Security> CTO:  Responding

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::finds this highly suspicious::

CMO_Shiar says:
CNS: according to my scans, she's turned into dust

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::closes her eyes and concentrates, remembering the path she KNOWS is right, then opens her eyes to follow it::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::comes too ... ::

CNS_Luchena says:
CMO:  Was it even really her?

Host Coot_ says:
Action: The CEO finds nothing wrong with the system, but notices the EPS relays are still quirky somewhere between Decks 22 and 25.

Something says:
<FCO> ::bangs the OPS' officer's head on the bulkhead::

CMO_Shiar says:
CNS: well, judging from the dust... I have no idea.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::unconscious again ...::

CTO_Hull says:
<Security> ::enters the bridge through the emergency escape::

Something says:
<FCO> Security: I saw the intruder leave in the Observation lounge

CNS_Luchena says:
::looks puzzled::  CMO:  Doc, can I leave Andrew with you?  Poppins was his nanny, and I think I need to get to the bridge.

Host Coot_ says:
ACTION: The CO finds a hatch labeled Main Engineering.... will she open it?

CMO_Shiar says:
CNS: well, I was about to head to the bridge myself...

CNS_Luchena says:
Andrew:  Want to come to the bridge?

Host Andrew says:
::nods::

CMO_Shiar says:
:: heads for the deck 2 entrance to the bridge::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::knows the tube hatch to ME isn't labeled from this side and thus ignores it::

CNS_Luchena says:
Andrew:  Come on then.  ::steps into the TL::

Host Andrew says:
::follows silently::

CEO_Stockburn says:
Self: I just fixed those.  EO:  Watch the MP diagnostic while I take care of a EPS Relay.  :: He types into the computer to locate and send him the location of the eps problem::

CTO_Hull says:
<security>::heads towards the observation room::

CNS_Luchena says:
Andrew:  Naw... let's follow the Doc.  ::steers Andrew after Shiar::

Host Coot_ says:
ACTION: The lights on the bridge have begun changing to a slow pulse of mixed colors....

CMO_Shiar says:
:: enters the bridge through deck 2 entrance::

Something says:
::leaves the FCO's body::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::is still unconscious on the floor::

FCO_W`rngway says:
:; falls to the deck ::

CNS_Luchena says:
::follows Dr. Shiar with Andrew in tow::

CMO_Shiar says:
:: sees Jordan and rushes over to her::

CTO_Hull says:
::arrives at the observation room himself through the secondary entryway, points to the other security to standby::

Something says:
::enters the body of the CNS::

CNS_Luchena says:
::stiffens::

Host Andrew says:
::goes rigid::

CSO_Toms says:
::notices that the FCO seems to be free of the thing... heads over to see if he can help either of the injured::

Host Andrew says:
::pulls away from Mikal::

CNS_Luchena says:
Thinks to self:  Not again...

CEO_Stockburn says:
:: he wonders how he got to Deck 23::

Host Andrew says:
::is staring at him terrified::

CNS_Luchena says:
::tries to repel the evil invader::

CEO_Stockburn says:
Self:  Hummm

CMO_Shiar says:
:: scans Jordan then gives her a hypo::

CTO_Hull says:
::opens his tricorder and begins scanning:: 

Host Coot_ says:
ACTION: Mikal's face is extremely placid and a black flash is expelled from him......

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::still crawling through the Jeffrey’s tubes, hoping she is remembering the right way::

CTO_Hull says:
Something: My name is Lt. Hull, we wish you no harm

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::moans::

Host Andrew says:
::backs up against a wall::

Host Coot_ says:
ACTION: There is no answer to the CTO.

FCO_W`rngway says:
:: begins to come around and moans ::

Something says:
::floats around the bridge::

CNS_Luchena says:
::sees Andrew's reaction and is horrified::

CMO_Shiar says:
CNS: get over here will ya

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::puts a hand to her head:: CMO:  Oh my head .... ::tries to sit up but the room begins spinning::

CMO_Shiar says:
OPS: you ok?

Something says:
::smiles::

Something says:
::floats over and enters Andrew::

CNS_Luchena says:
::looks up then around::

CEO_Stockburn says:
:: is staring at the replicator like he has been hypnotized, then sharply returns :: Self:  Whoa

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CMO:  Do I look OK?  ::tries to stand but falls back down::

CNS_Luchena says:
Something:  Whatever you are, show yourself.

Host Andrew says:
::screams::

FCO_W`rngway says:
:: looks up and tries to sit and groans :; All:  Anyone get the number of that Bird of Prey that hit me?

MO_Tribble says:
::happily crawling around sickbay, thinking what a joyous, wonderful, peaceful ship Pendragon is::

CTO_Hull says:
Something: We are explorers, have you seen those on the planet like us?

CSO_Toms says:
::Steps back to SCI 1 feeling like a coward, guilty and stuff::

CMO_Shiar says:
:: helps Jordan into a chair and scans her again::  OPS: what happened?

Something says:
<Andrew> ::feels the power in his body::

CNS_Luchena says:
Something:  Leave him alone!

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CMO:  I don't know ... something entered my body ... then it left ... then the FCO tried to kidnap me!  I hit my head a couple of times ... ::is having a hard time staying upright::

CTO_Hull says:
::fires his phaser at Something on stun::

Host Coot_ says:
ACTION: Andrew disappears.... just as the Pendragon docks with the Outpost.
