FCO_Ens_Fa says:
CO: Aye sir.  ::taps console to hail the planet:: COM: Helax: Helax, this is the USS Sharikahr.

TO_Warrener says:
CO:  Aye sir.  ::Shifts weight from one foot to the other and taps a few buttons, beginning the preliminary scan::

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:

::Studying a proposed change to LRS pallet::

Host Lioeran_Duarr says:
@ ::Peppy alien appears on the screen:: COM: Sharikahr: Greetings!

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
CSO: Check with Lieutenant Soree. Make sure the transporters are ready to deal with the traffic.

FCO_Ens_Fa says:

CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::looks over at the MO approaching:: MO: Ah, is that the manifest list?

CSO_LtCmdr_Ikari says:
::follows the order silently, now that the view screen is activated.  Sends the query through text to the CEO's console in ME::

Host Lioeran_Duarr says:
@ ::Smiles brightly:: COM: Sharikahr: Why yes, I am the leader of that party. Chief Botanist Lioeran Duarr at your service.

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
::Sees the CSO's query appear on his console::

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
::returns the smile:: COMM Duarr: A pleasure to meet you Duarr. We're ready to receive you whenever you're ready. Do you have everything you need?

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
::Types response that transporters are at 100%::

MO_Celene says:
CMO: Yes sir.  ::Offers him the PADD::  I finished it a few moments ago.

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
::fixes a deviation in their trajectory and monitors the comm system while listening to the conversation with the planet below at the same time.::

CSO_LtCmdr_Ikari says:
::receives the response from the CEO and turns to the CO::

TO_Warrener says:
::Begins the full sweep of the surface.  Seems awfully...green, down there.::

Host Lioeran_Duarr says:
@ COM: Sharikahr: Why certainly. Here are the coordinates. ::Transmits:: We're all ready, eager and willing to come up to your ship.

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
::gets the coordinates::

CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::takes the PADD from the MO and pads down it:: MO: Good... this looks good ::moves over to a computer and clips the PADD in::

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
::waits for the captain's order before forwarding it to transporter room.::

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
::nods and signals Fa:: COMM Duarr: We'll have you aboard momentarily. Sharikahr out.

Host Lioeran_Duarr says:
@ ::Can't wait to try out their foods::

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
::Stops his studying and brings up the transporter functions to observe::

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
FCO: Beam the chief's party aboard.

MO_Celene says:
CMO: It looks like we might have a quiet time this mission.

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
::hits the button and sends the request to TR1::  CO: Stand by....    ::communicates with the transporter chief::

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
CSO: Take Doctor Maylen and go meet the party.

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
*TR-chief* Beam them up, Scotty.

TO_Warrener says:
CSO:  Nothing out of the ordinary on the surface scan, sir.  ::Resumes normal sweeps::

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
<TR-chief>*FCO* Aye.  ::taps console to begin transport::

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
*TR-chief* Let me know when you have them.

CSO_LtCmdr_Ikari says:
TO: Understood.  CO: Yes sir.  You realize, I haven't been properly briefed on the Helaxian race.

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
FCO: When everyone is aboard, signal planetary control and break orbit.

CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::looks back:: MO: I certainly do hope so.

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
::glances:: CSO: No one has. Quickly please, Commander. We don't want them milling about.

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
CO: Understood.  ::prepares to break orbit.::

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
<TR Chief>*FCO* We have the party aboard.

Host Lioeran_Duarr says:
::Is beamed onboard. Looks around with glee::

CSO_LtCmdr_Ikari says:
CO: Of course.  ::Heads to the TR::  *CMO* Doctor Maylen, Ikari here.  Please meet me in transporter room one.

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
*TR-chief* Thank you.

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
<TR Chief>Duarr: Welcome aboard sir.  Someone will be with you momentarily.

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
FCO: Take us out. Warp 8.5

Host Lioeran_Duarr says:
::A group of Helaxians and one Human Female stand on the transporter PADD::

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
::turns to the Captain:: CO: We have the boarding party.

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
::is already on it, and tells the planet they are breaking orbit:: COM: Helax: We are breaking orbit.  Sharikahr out.

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
::feels like getting up and walking about to check but that's not his job anymore::

Host Patricia_Cole says:
::Stands quietly among the chipper Helaxians::

Host Lioeran_Duarr says:
::Steps down from the pad:: TR Chief: Thank you. When will dinner be served?

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
<TR Chief> Duarr: Meals may be accessed at your pleasure sir.

CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::looks up:: *CSO* Of course, Commander. ::looks to the MO again:: MO: Looks like you're in charge... hold down the fort ::says that like an expression he just learned::

MO_Celene says:
::Smiles:: CMO: Understood, sir.

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
::brings up the course to Leprel that she had plotted earlier and heads straightway at near max warp.::

CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::heads out of sickbay, and expediently makes his way to the TR::

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
CO: We have broken orbit and now are on our way to the Leprel system, sir.

TO_Warrener says:
::Takes out a piece of lemon-flavored candy and pops it into his mouth.  Appears to be another run-of-the-mill day, today::

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
::feels the ship jump into warp and looks at the stretching stars:: FCO: Thank you Ensign Fa. View screen off for now. I've seen this show. ::smiles a bit::

CSO_LtCmdr_Ikari says:
::arrives in TR1 and stands in front of the group:: All: Welcome to the Sharikahr.

CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::enters the transporter room only to find people all ready mulling about there::

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
::nods and turns off the view screen, and flies by sensors::

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
<TR Chief> ::Wonders when he became the official "greeter"::

Host Lioeran_Duarr says:
::Steps forward and attempts the human hand shake with the CSO:: CSO: Hello hello!

Host Patricia_Cole says:
::Stands back quietly with her carryall::

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
<TR Chief> ::backs away to let the brass deal with the guests::

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
::looks over his shoulder:: TO: Anything yet?

CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::looks at Ikari, stands to the right and only slightly behind him, prepares himself for the same, and any telepathic waves that might wash over him from the delegate::

CSO_LtCmdr_Ikari says:
::fumbles a little with the handshake and nods to the CMO:: Duarr: This is the ship's medical chief, Doctor Maylen.  I am the ship's science chief, Shinji Ikari.  Good to meet you.

Host Lioeran_Duarr says:
::Does the same awkward hand shake to the CMO::

TO_Warrener says:
::Shrugs, looking at his console::  CO:  Nothing to report, Captain.

CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::nods politely to the delegate and does his best to shake his hand:: Duarr: Pleased to meet you.

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
::eases back into the chair:: FCO: ETA?

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
::calculates::  CO: Approximately a day, sir.

CSO_LtCmdr_Ikari says:
Duarr: You have a choice as to where you go next.  I can have you shown to your guest quarters and you can get settled, or you can go to our lounge for some refreshments.

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
TO: Continue scans, and sift the comm channels as well. They haven't managed to cloak comm signals as yet. If they're talking and out here, we might be able to spot that.

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
CO: It's about four light years from here.

Host Lioeran_Duarr says:
::Perks up at the mention of refreshments:: CSO: The Lounge sounds like a good idea. ::BIG smile::

TO_Warrener says:
::Nods::  CO:  Right.  ::Begins scanning subspace communications for any unusual traffic.::

CSO_LtCmdr_Ikari says:
Duarr: Very well.  If you will only follow me, we will be there shortly.  ::makes his way to the Zen Lounge::

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
::gets up from his chair and walks up to Tactical, lowering his voice:: What data were you able to get from who we brought aboard?

Host Lioeran_Duarr says:
::Follows along::

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
<TR Chief> ::Notes Duarr's preoccupation with food::

Host Patricia_Cole says:
::Follows the Helaxians remaining quiet::

CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::would almost find the person in front of him comical, if the situation were different, decides to accompany Shinji and let the science officer take the brunt of the delegate’s... mood, and answer any questions that may come up::

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
::Sees that the transport went without problems and returns to his study::

TO_Warrener says:
::Sets the program to ignore standard Starfleet signals...looks up slowly, and lowers his voice too, though hasn't any idea why::  CO:  ...Sir?

Host Lioeran_Duarr says:
CSO: I'm very interested in testing all your foods, and hopefully you've set up several of your native plants in the Lounge ... I'd be very interested in seeing those ... ::Begins to drone on annoyingly about the excellent foods on his world::

CSO_LtCmdr_Ikari says:
*TO* Our guests will be spending a little time in the lounge.  Have a team clear it of any stragglers, please.

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
::waits while Warrener responds::

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
::monitors and checks the four Helaxian life signs plus one extra human life signs on her console::

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
<TR Chief> ::is curious about the good looking Human female with the Helaxians::

CSO_LtCmdr_Ikari says:
::nods in understanding at all of Duarr's droning::  Duarr: We have a fine selection of many numerous cuisines aboard the Sharikahr.  I hope you will find some to your liking.

CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::notices someone with them in the semi-formed line, someone he wasn't introduced to, he falls back slightly:: Cole: Hello, I'm Lt.Cmdr, Maylen, Chief Medical Officer... ::lets that hang in the "introduce yourself" place::

TO_Warrener says:
::Blinks a few times::  CO:  Not much from the party, personally...though I can pull up the transport records and take a look, if you like.  If you're talking about the planet...well, I can look over the sensor logs again, too...

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
<Java> ::in Zen's lounge wiping the counter down::

Host Patricia_Cole says:
Maylen:  Patricia Cole...

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
::shakes his head:: TO: Just the party. Run their bioscans again and match them against anyone in our databases.

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
::finds it curious to see a human in the boarding party, but shrugs it off.::

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
::turns and steps down, opening a channel on the console in front of his old chair:: *CEO* Bridge to Engineering.

TO_Warrener says:
::Comm from Ikari finally registers... taps his commbadge::  *CSO*  Aye sir.  ::Sends a small detachment of security personnel to the lounge::

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
*Bridge* Engineering here.

CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::nods, falls in next to her:: Cole: A pleasure to meet you. I didn't realize that a... ::the briefest of pauses:: human would be among the delegation.

TO_Warrener says:
::Pulls up the transport logs::  CO:  Getting underway now, sir.  ::Starts running things through LCARS::  Might take awhile though, there's --  ::Narrows his eyes in disbelief, results already::

CSO_LtCmdr_Ikari says:
::runs into the security team as he arrives at the Zen Lounge:: Duarr: Here we are.  Please, after you.  Java there will take any orders you might have.

Host Lioeran_Duarr says:
::Rushes past the CSO toward the bar::

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
<Java> ::looks up as the door opens, and looks at the strangers::

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
*CEO*: Report to the bridge, Lieutenant. Bridge out. ::cuts the comm suddenly and walks back to Tac::

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
*CO* Acknowledged. ::Quickly moves to a turbolift::

Host Lioeran_Duarr says:
::Followed by the other Helaxians who move more slowly and cautiously::

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
TO: There's what?

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
<Java> ::blinks:: Duarr: Hello. How may I help you?

CSO_LtCmdr_Ikari says:
::chuckles at the Helaxian's enthusiasm::

Host Patricia_Cole says:
::Walks behind the last Helaxian::

TO_Warrener says:
Ahkileez:  A match on the human female.  Used to be Starfleet...she deserted to the Storm.

CSO_LtCmdr_Ikari says:
::raises his eyebrows at Maylen before entering:: CMO: Shall we?

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
::Takes turbolift from deck 13 to the bridge::

Host Lioeran_Duarr says:
Java: Hullo hullo ... all of your finest cuisines please!

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
TO: Brazen isn't she. Have her arrested and brought to the bridge.

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
<Java> ::drops her jaw:: Duarr: All?  ::looks at the CSO and CMO for confirmation:: ALL?

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
::Steps out of turbolift onto bridge; looks around:: CO: Reporting sir.

CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::notes the lack of an answer as odd, makes a small effort to isolate her transmitting thoughts from the jumble... nothing, he looks to Ikari, nods::

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
::turns in her seat to look at the buzzing around the bridge and tries to determine what the captain is so suspicious about.:

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
::nods at Soree:: CEO: Lieutenant, I believe Commander Ikari was working on something to detect any cloaked vessels in our area. Continue his work.

CSO_LtCmdr_Ikari says:
::smiles:: Java: Well, a sampling of some will do for now.

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
CO: Aye sir. ::moves to the science console::

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
<Java> ::nods:: CSO: Alright...   ::turns to look at Duarr::  Duarr: I will be right back.

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
<Java> ::heads off into the kitchen and digs around for a bit, and puts some treats on a tray.::

TO_Warrener says:
::Timidly::  CO:  Ah, sir?

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
::Brings up CSO's latest data::

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
::gives him a more direct look:: TO: Do you have a problem with that order? Have Security bring her to the bridge.

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
::Notes Ikari had implemented intermittent tachyon scans; looking for cloaked ships::

CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::decides to see if he can get a little more out of the odd human, something in the back of his mind not accepting the oddness, approaches her casually:: Cole: So, how long have you been with the Helaxian's?

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
<Java> ::brings out a tray full of pasta, and different types of exotic food, plus small samples of different types of dessert she had planned for that day.::  Duarr/guests: Please help yourself.   ::puts the tray down.::

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
::Frowns::

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
Self: Well... this will work... just costs us some SRS resolutions.

Host Lioeran_Duarr says:
::With precision he picks up some of the pasta with his bare hands and eats::

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
::continues their trek towards the Leprel system, and doesn't think she wants anyone else here, at the helm other than her, for the next 26 hours::

Host Patricia_Cole says:
Maylen: About Six months now.

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
::Studies the program::

TO_Warrener says:
CO:  It's just that..uhm..do you think it would be wise to do that?  She's registered with the Helaxian traveling party...she could get out of it fairly easily..

CSO_LtCmdr_Ikari says:
::keeps a grin on his face, but wonders why he's playing babysitter when he should be on the bridge::

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
::Tweaks the program but it doesn't help the SRS resolution::

CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::nods:: Cole: If you don't mind my asking, what would your impression of them be?

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
<Java> ::blinks with a little shocked:: Duarr: Perhaps you would like to use our cutlery?  ::brings out some forks and knives and spoons::  It would prevent you from...  ::looks at him up and down:: dribbling.

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
:;sighs:: TO: Fine. Have her 'escorted' to the Bridge.

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
Self: What is it with this ship and it's scanners?  Can't see beyond our nose out here.

Host Patricia_Cole says:
Maylen: Eccentric, they are the most excitable species I've ever met.

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
::walks back down to the main command area and sits::

TO_Warrener says:
::Nods::  CO:  Very well.

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
::decides against that as she would be very sore after that, and schedules Squire to take on the next shift::

Host Lioeran_Duarr says:
::Dribbles:: Java: No need. It is excellent. My compliments to your food growing person. ::Gobbles::

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
FCO: How are the engines handling the stress, and fuel consumption?

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
Self: There'd best not be any problems.

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
::alters the tachyon scan to sweep every five minutes::

TO_Warrener says:
*Security Team* ::Quietly::  Could you... as discreetly as possible.., escort the human with the Helaxians to the bridge?

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
::Heads comes up slightly at the CO's question to the FCO::

CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
Cole: I can see as much, although they do seem interesting. ::glances over at the delegates for a second, then back:: Just how did you happen to become attached to their delegation, as I believe I mentioned before, I had not heard of any significant prior Starfleet or human contact.

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
::checks reading:: CO: Looking good, captain.   Lt. Soree is an effective and efficient engineer sir.  He keeps this ship running like a well oiled engine.  ::glances over at Soree::

TO_Warrener says:
<TO_Campbell>  *Warrener*  ::Uneasily::  Will do, sir...

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
:;smiles a little:: FCO: I'm sure he appreciates the compliment.

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
::Nods to Fa at compliment::

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
<Java> Duarr: Uhhh... Okay.   ::waves to the other Helaxians:: Please... help yourselves.

CSO_LtCmdr_Ikari says:
::decides to let the Helaxians binge rather than attempt small talk::

Host Patricia_Cole says:
Maylen: I'm not Starfleet.  I'm a member of Storm.

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
::Raises left brow at the CO's comment::

TO_Warrener says:
<Campbell>  ::Approaches Cole with two other security officers::  Cole:  Excuse me, ma'am...it's been requested that we escort you to the bridge.

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
::smiles a little, relieved and glad that Soree's going to leave her neck on her shoulder:::

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
CO: Oh... it's not a compliment, sir.  It's just a stated truth.

CSO_LtCmdr_Ikari says:
::hears Cole and turns to listen more closely::

Host Lioeran_Duarr says:
<Helaxian One> ::Comes up to Cole:: Cole: Ms. Cole ... you MUST taste some of this ... what did they call it, pasta?

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
::smiles at Fa but doesn't respond::

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
CO: Commander Ikari had implemented intermittent tachyon sweeps to check for cloaked vessels...

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
<Java> ::nods to Helaxian One::  One: Here.. try some chocolate.  It's very... heavenly.

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
CO: We lose some SRS resolution with that but seems a fair trade off.

TO_Warrener says:
::Nervous...doesn't want to think about what could be transpiring in the lounge right now… continues sweeping local comm traffic::

Host Patricia_Cole says:
H-One: I know about it… thank you.

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
::calls without looking back:: CEO: I agree. And are there any results yet?

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
::Shakes head:: CO: No sir.

CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::it takes a moment for that name, and the significance of that to sink in for Des, when it does his manner changes noticeably, even through his levels of control:: Cole: Is that so? I believe you should just stay where you are then... ::gestures to Ikari::

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
CEO: Continue scans and inform me of any change in status.

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
CO: If there's any problem with the engine, I'll be sure to let Lt. Soree know.   ::keeps her eyes down on her console and bites her tongue and wonder what made her say it in the first place.::

CSO_LtCmdr_Ikari says:
::walks over to Maylen:: CMO: Yes doctor?

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
::Notes the tension that seems to be building in the CO:: Will do sir.

Host Patricia_Cole says:
Maylen: Not leaving the delegation.

Host Lioeran_Duarr says:
<Helaxian One> ::Gobbles the chocolate::

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
::Snorts at the FCO's comment:: Self: As if there'd be engine problems.

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
<Java> ::amazed at how one can gobbles it all up::   One: How do you like it?

TO_Warrener says:
<Campbell>  ::Clears his throat...has an idea::  Helaxians/Cole:  I've received a request that youall come to the Bridge...the Captain would like to see you, since you are guests on his ship...  ::Thinks it easier to get the lot of them there, than the woman alone::

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
::field strips an L-type rifle in his mind as he concentrates on staying calm::

Host Lioeran_Duarr says:
::Gobbles some more pasta:: Campbell: Can we bring the food?

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
<Java> ::thinks of the mess their "guests" would leave.::

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
::clicks some buttons on the science console with his nail::

CSO_LtCmdr_Ikari says:
Campbell: I don't know if that's the best thing to do.  Some of our guests are still enjoying their dinners.

Host Patricia_Cole says:
::Waits to see what the Helaxians do::

CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::doesn't turn to Ikari:: Cole: You had better not. I will inform you now that under Starfleet regulations and specifications, I would place you under arrest... ::glances to the Helaxians:: Although as part of a diplomatic counsel, I cannot carry that out, I nevertheless make that declaration known. ::finishes that formality, turns to Ike::

Host Lioeran_Duarr says:
::Looks confused:: CMO: Arrest?

TO_Warrener says:
<Campbell>  ::Sighs inwardly::  CSO:  Commander, their presence has been requested on the Bridge... ::Tilts his head specifically to Cole...trying to avoid an incident::

CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
CSO: Ms. Cole has informed me she is a member of Storm. ::is deathly serious::

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
:;folds his leg on his lap and holds the ankle, reading the small screen in his chair arm::

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
::Runs a quick check of matter/anti-matter efficiency just to quell his mind::

Host Lioeran_Duarr says:
::Licks off some pasta:: CMO: Yes, she is. But the Storm is jointly here on this expedition ... she is with us. ::Smile::

CSO_LtCmdr_Ikari says:
::winces at Maylen's comment::  TO: They are our guests.  We cannot force them to do anything.  ::turns to Cole::  Cole: What is your objection to going to the bridge?

Host Patricia_Cole says:
::Stands quietly knowing that Starfleet would act badly::

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
<Java> ALL: Perhaps they can freshen up in their quarters and then the captain can go see them... all of them there.

Host Patricia_Cole says:
Ikari: None.

CSO_LtCmdr_Ikari says:
Cole: Then shall we?

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
<Java> ::looks at her guests::  Helaxians: I can send food ...  and for your own safeties, of course.. we insist you have an escort to and fro on this ship.

CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:

Host Patricia_Cole says:
::Nods and Nods to Duarr before following Ikari::

Host Lioeran_Duarr says:
::Walks along licking the pasta, still slightly confused ... but then remembers how that other Federation group reacted to General Trebor::

FCO_Ens_Fa says:

TO_Warrener says:
<Campbell>  ::Looks at the other two security officers with a mix of relief and apprehension...the security team takes up the rear.  Hopes the turbolift will hold them all::

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
FCO: I've missed something here.

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
::scratches his chin and realizes he needs a shave::

CSO_LtCmdr_Ikari says:
::arrives at the bridge:: CO: Captain.

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
::Turns as Ikari enters bridge::

TO_Warrener says:
::Runs a quick check on internal sensors...doesn't want anything dangerous slipping onto the Bridge::

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
:;stands, nodding at Ikari and the party coming in::

CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::looks behind him at the voice:: Java: Oh... ::turns forward again:: No, no it wouldn't be appropriate... I've made enough of a scene for one day.

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
::nods at the CEO:: CEO: I am not sure what or who the Storm is… but apparently very "bad"… ::chews her lips, thinking...::  I don't know… I guess we don’t' want her wandering around like a lost soul.

CSO_LtCmdr_Ikari says:
::stands at the back of the bridge, letting the group file in::

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
<Java> CMO: You were just reacting, I suppose.  ::smiles a little::

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
::A quick glance at the last tachyon sweep and then looks up at the others with the CSO::

Host Lioeran_Duarr says:
::Moves forward and grabs up the CO's hand in a pasta-slithering human mockery of a handshake::

TO_Warrener says:
<Campbell>  ::Breaks off with the other two security officers to stand at the turbolift entrance, watching the female carefully::

CSO_LtCmdr_Ikari says:
::looks over to the CO:: CO: Sorry sir, we must have forgotten about the napkins.

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
::glances up and then stands in respect as their guests arrive on the bridge::

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
:;recognizes the face:: Duarr: Welcome aboard the Sharikahr. :;spots one of the yeomen coming up with a cloth and takes it from her::

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
CSO: It’s quite all right, Commander. I've seen worse.

Host FM_Little_Goo says:
ACTION: All Consoles all over the ship suddenly go black, as does the view screen.

TO_Warrener says:
::Makes a small face to himself at the rather unkempt Helaxian.  Feels sorry for the Captain, and his hand::

Host Lioeran_Duarr says:
CO: Thank you so very much for this, Captain! ::Looks around at the darkened screens:: Ooh, a show?

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
Self: Damn.

CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::chuckles/scoffs, quite loudly for him, not even attempting to hide it:: Java: That's it exactly, reacting... not thinking, reacting. I might as well have struck her down where she stood, would have created the same type of scene...

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
Bridge: Everyone remain where you are.

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
::looks down and taps control+alt+delete::  CO: Captain... our controls... !!

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
CEO: Bring auxiliary power online.

TO_Warrener says:
::Looks to his panel to check on the comms again, and finds...nothing::  Self:  Hmm.  ::Peers around the bridge::

Host FM_Little_Goo says:
ACTION: A simple Omega Symbol appears on all screens.

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
::Punches console:: CO: Trying that now.

CSO_LtCmdr_Ikari says:
::checks to see if the security team is still at the entrance::

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
::blinks:: CEO: Do you see what I see?

MO_Celene says:
::Notices her console go blank...Looks around sickbay and notes all the others are dark as well.  Counts to three before she'll decide to call Maylen::

Host Lioeran_Duarr says:
::Looks:: A Zynog Shoe? Interesting ... I do not understand, but interesting.

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
::stops as the strange symbol appears::

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
FCO: I do... but what is it?

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
::breathes in quickly::

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
<Java> ::blinks as her kitchen lights start going haywire, and the omega sign on a communication panel.::

TO_Warrener says:
::Goes over to secondary tactical...still nothing::  Self:  Computer virus..?  ::Keeps looking around at most of the stations, finding nothing new::

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
CSO: You have the bridge, Ikari. ::walks quickly for the ready room::

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
CEO: it's the last alphabet of the Greek language.... Omega.

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
::again punches the console attempting to access the engineering systems::

TO_Warrener says:
<Campbell>  ::Places his hand near his sidearm, fearing the worst::

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
CEO: Although... why is that flashing all over the place?

CSO_LtCmdr_Ikari says:
::watches the CO walk out before he can respond::

CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::senses the confusion spreading throughout the ship, turns, finds all consoles displaying something. Frowning slightly he gets up and steps closer:: Java: What is this?

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
::drops into his chair hard and reads the incoming orders::

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
::keeps tapping her controls::   CEO: Nothing.. No response from the control.

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
FCO: Again... no idea. ::Almost smashes the console with his efforts::

CSO_LtCmdr_Ikari says:
Duarr: This visit will have to be cut short, I'm afraid.  Campbell: Please escort our guests to their quarters for the time being.

MO_Celene says:
::..Three.::  *CMO* Doctor Maylen, all consoles here are on the blink, showing something of a horseshoe..

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
::Kicks the console and races to his bridge station::

Host Patricia_Cole says:
::Looks at the Console::  Self:  Omega...

TO_Warrener says:
::Goes down to the CEO, frustrated::  CEO:  It's not a virus... is it?  ::Glances at the Storm operative, then back to the blank console Soree is pounding away at::

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
<Java> ::shakes her head:: CMO: Other than it's the symbol for "omega"... a Greek alphabet... I have NO idea.

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
::Attempts to enter the bridge engineering console::

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
::breathes out slowly:: Computer: Delete all sensor records for the last ten minutes and store a copy in my directory only. Authorization, Ahkileez-Alpha-0-1

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
TO: Wouldn't think so, but then....

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
:;heads on to the bridge and turns off the omega symbol::

TO_Warrener says:
<Campbell>  CSO:  Yes sir.  ::Relaxes somewhat::  Duarr:  If you'll follow me, I'll guide you to your quarters.  ::Glances uneasily to the CSO::

CSO_LtCmdr_Ikari says:
::returns Campbell's glance with an unsure one::

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
FCO: Set course for the Madtion Nebula, Maximum warp.

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
<JAVA> ::attempts weakly at a humorous joke:: CMO: Perhaps Starfleet is organizing a horse shoe game?

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
TO: Bring the ship to Red Alert.

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
*CPO Urk* What is going on down there?

FCO_Ens_Fa says:
CO: Yes sir...but the Helaxians?

CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::looks at his commbadge:: MO: Ah... apparently it is a ::looks to Java:: Greek? A Greek symbol for omega, a letter in that alphabet... and it's here as well... ::the consoles blink:: Oh, it's gone now.

Host CO_Capt_Ahkileez says:
CSO: Take the Helaxian party below and restrict them to their quarters.

CEO_Lt_Soree says:
::Swings around as the CO calls for Red Alert::
