USS Sharikahr NCC-81204 - Stardate 10702.22

The crew of the valiant USS Sharikahr has undergone great difficulties during their journey toward Betazed. After having been invaded by a series of Ninjas, the Norway Class vessel had finally reached their destination. Was it an easy journey? No. Was it ever easy for the crew of the Sharikahr? Never!  Once the Sharikahr had reached Betazed, the crew was hailed by one of Ambassador Peter Nar's Secretaries. It seems that the Ambassador was a bit on edge due to the lack of punctuality by the Federation. Of course, the Ambassador was not aware of the Sharikahr's present situation, but that did not seem to matter to him.  Acting Commanding Officer Rodos assembled an Away Team consisting of Lieutenant Commander Millicent Rodos and Lieutenant So'tsoh, leaving Commander Stidd in command of the Sharikahr. Once they Away Team arrived on the planet's surface, their eyes met the massive amount of Security Guards surrounding the embassy.  It seemed that the Federation Embassy was taking their security rather seriously since the discovery of the bomb that was luckily disarmed. The Away Team was eventually escorted into the Embassy by a team of Security Officers, where they were met by the Ambassador.  

While on the Sharikahr, Doctor Cartwright seemed to experience an odd prickling sensation within his mind, causing him to screech in pain. In an attempt to try and understand the Doctor's pain, Commander Stidd linked with the Chief Medical Officer through a Mind Meld. Though the meld was successful, it left each participant with several oddities.  Meanwhile on the surface, the Away Team learned that the Embassy believed the terrorist organization The Red Allegiance was behind the bombing. The Away Team, having met these adversaries once before, did not take kindly to this news. However, it would be their job to track down the Allegiance cell on Betazed and remove them from the planet.  And in addition to all of this… a new Captain was due to come aboard!!! Finally Starfleet Command had answered the Sharikahr's needs!  This is where we now rejoin our crew. They now have some decisions to make. Will they be the right ones? Will the crew be able to track down the Allegiance before they attack again?

<<<<<<<<<< Resume Mission >>>>>>>>>>

ACTION: Captain Adrel's Shuttle comes into the Sharikahr's sensor range.

CEO Cmdr Stidd says:
:: On the bridge awaiting the new captains arrival::

XO Cmdr Rodos says:
:: On the bridge as well, sitting in the command chair::

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
:: At her station on the bridge:: XO: Commander, I am picking a Starfleet shuttle entering our sensor range.

XO Cmdr Rodos says:
::nods... as expected:: CSO: Open a channel.

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
@Shuttle FCO: Hail the Shari to ask for my transfer please to the ship, please.

Host Sha says:
::Makes his way onto the Bridge with some sort of odd looking doll in his hand. He remains in the back and just watches those around him::

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
XO: Opening channel... they are hailing us.

XO Cmdr Rodos says:
CSO: On screen.

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
:: Her eyes catch movement and she turns to see Shá.  With a finger, she motions him to join her.::

Host Shuttle FCO says:
@CO: Channel open, you can talk to them directly, Capt.

Host Sha says:
::He makes his way over to Sin rather quickly:: CSO: I found this. ::He holds out a doll that looks almost exactly like Counselor Rodos::

ACTION: A channel is opened between the Sharikahr and the Shuttle.

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
:: Quietly:: Shá: Interesting.  It probably belongs to her daughter.  Feel free to return it to her.  However, before you do that, you know you are not to be on the bridge unless the captain or myself invites you.

Host Sha says:
CSO: But... there are more of them. ::He says in a hushed tone::

XO Cmdr Rodos says:
::waits for the Captain to come on the viewscreen::

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
:: Slowly:: Shá:  More dolls?

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
@COM: Sharikahr: This is Capt Adrel. I believe you are expecting me?

CEO Cmdr Stidd says:
:: Turns to face the viewer and sees the new CO for the first time::

XO Cmdr Rodos says:
COM: CO: Indeed we are, Captain. You may come aboard at your convenience.

Host Sha says:
CSO: Yes. More of them. ::He pulls one out of his small pack that is wearing a red Starfleet uniform with four golden pips attached to the collar. He squeezes it a bit and the Captain begins to feel a bit of pressure in her abdomen::

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
@::makes a face as she feels pain in her abdomen::

XO Cmdr Rodos says:
COM: CO: Are you alright, Captain?

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
:: Opens her hand for him to give her the doll:: Shá: Interesting... were did you find them?

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
@COM: Sharikahr: Sorry. Don't know what was that pain. I felt fine a second ago. I guess site to site transport and have my belongings be sent to my quarters be the most efficient and fast way to have me board the ship.

Host Sha says:
CSO: They appeared in our room a few minutes ago. I counted 15...

XO Cmdr Rodos says:
COM: CO: Shall we beam you to the conference room?

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
:: Stills:: Shá: In our quarters?

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
@COM: Sharikahr: Yes. That would be fine. ::as she runs her abdomen hoping it'll help have the pain dissipate::

Host Sha says:
CSO: Yes... there is one of you even. ::He takes out one that looks almost identical to Sin:: CSO: I have never seen such odd toys...

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
 :: Very confused and very concerned, looks over the doll of the stranger in her hand and turns it over, searching its body for anything unusual.::

XO Cmdr Rodos says:
COM: CO: Very well. Sharikahr out. ::taps combadge:: *TR1*: Bridge to Transporter Room 1. Lock on to Captain Adrel and beam her to the conference room, and her belongings to the Captain's quarters.

CEO Cmdr Stidd says:
:: Stidd automatically adjusts the power flow to compensate for the site to site transport.::

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
:: Looks at the doll he is now holding::

XO Cmdr Rodos says:
All: All Senior Staff report to the conference room immediately. ::without looking around, stands up and heads in the direction of the conference room::'

ACTION: The Captain is transported to the Conference Room. The pain in her abdomen seems to have left her as well.

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
XO: Commander...

XO Cmdr Rodos says:
::halts at the doorway and turns:: CSO: Yes, Lieutenant?

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
::materializes in the conference room and stretches a bit, feeling that the pain has gone::

CEO Cmdr Stidd says:
::Moves to the conference room for the briefing with the new Captain::

Host Sha says:
CSO: There is one of him too... but I left it in our room.

XO Cmdr Rodos says:
::notices Sha on the bridge:: CSO: What's going on here?

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
:: Motions her head down to Shá:: XO: Someone has transported dolls :: holds up the one of the unknown woman in her hand:: to my quarters.

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
:: Points to the other two he is still holding:: XO: These resemble the counselor and myself.  There are apparently 15 total at his last count.

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
XO: Permission to discover what is going on.

XO Cmdr Rodos says:
::raises an eyebrow:: CSO: Bring them to the conference room.  You may investigate afterward.

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
XO: Bring Shá as well?

Host Sha says:
CSO: No!

XO Cmdr Rodos says:
CSO: Perhaps it would be best if he waited in your quarters. I believe Captain Adrel would like to get acquainted with the senior staff.

CMO Lt Cartwright says:
::comes out of the unconsciousness and looks around sickbay::

Host Sha says:
::He whispers loudly:: CSO: I don't like that wrinkled nosed man.

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
XO: Commander, someone has violated my quarters and you wish Shá to return there?

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
:: Looks down confused::  Shá: What wrinkled nosed man?

Host Sha says:
CSO: Horrible, vial creatures! ::He turns and makes his way toward the Turbo Lift::

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
Shá: Wait a moment...

XO Cmdr Rodos says:
::sighs and departs the bridge, swiftly approaching the conference room::

Host Sha says:
CSO: No! I will wait in our Quarters. There is no harm there. ::He enters the Turbo Lift::

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
CEO: Hello. And you are? ::walks to the CEO::

CMO Lt Cartwright says:
::sits up and climbs out of the biobed and walks to a monitor to check his messages::

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
:: Walks to the conference door and steps part way through, her eyes narrowing on the woman there.  She starts to speak only to pause and look down at the doll in her hand.::

CEO Cmdr Stidd says:
CO: I am Stidd, your Chief Engineer.  I have some reports for you to look over at your convenience, captain.

XO Cmdr Rodos says:
::enters the conference room::

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
CEO: Nice to meet you Cmdr. ::smiles and turns as more people enter. Moves towards them::

XO Cmdr Rodos says:
CO: I apologize for the delay, Captain.

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
XO: Cmdr Rodos, I assume?

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
*Security*: Please send an officer to my quarters.

CMO Lt Cartwright says:
::looks around and sneaks out of sickbay while MO Johnson isn't looking::

CEO Cmdr Stidd says:
:: Nods, moves on and takes his seat::

XO Cmdr Rodos says:
::nods:: CO: You assume correctly. ::offers his hand::

Host SO Dunkin says:
*CSO*: Understood, sir.

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
:: Steps through the doors:: CO: Captain... :: Shows her the doll::

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
::shakes the XO's hand:: XO: Nice to meet you, Cmdr.

CMO Lt Cartwright says:
::slips into the TL and orders it to the appropriate deck::

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
::sees the doll:: CSO: A doll? It does look like me... What is it?

CMO Lt Cartwright says:
::stops into the mess hall and grabs a milkshake before heading to the conference room::

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
CO: A good question.  My... son, just brought the doll to me along with the information others suddenly appeared  in my quarters.

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
::turns to the XO with the doll:: XO: Any idea where that came from?

XO Cmdr Rodos says:
::shakes his head:: CO: None at all, ma'am.

ACTION: The doll hops out of the Chief Science Officer's hand onto the Conference Room table and smiles widely.

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
CO: With permission... :: stills::

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
ALL: How about we do that quick ,,,, What...?

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
:: Exits the conference room and quickly heads for her tricorder.::

CMO Lt Cartwright says:
::enters the conference room and stumbles, sending the milkshake flying into the CO and splattering all over her uniform::

Host Doll says:
ALL: Good day. ::She says in a squeaky little voice::

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
:: Passing the tactical officer.:: TO: We may have intruders aboard.

CEO Cmdr Stidd says:
:: Stands and looks at the doll in surprise then watches as the drink splatters all over the new CO::

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
:: Returns to the room and seeing the spilled milkshake, sighs and turns to the object on the table, beginning her scan.::

ACTION: The milkshake contents spills all over the Captain. It seems that this tradition never fails.

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
::wipes some of the milkshake from her uniform:: CMO: We'll deal with this incident later ::looks at his pips:: Lt.

Host Doll says:
::She giggles at the sight::

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
CSO: You said there were other dolls? If so, we better check that they didn't come alive like this one.

CMO Lt Cartwright says:
::pushes himself up off the floor noticing the CO's pips and lays back down face first a moment::

Host Doll says:
CO: Oh... they aren't awake yet. ::She begins to jump up and down::

CEO Cmdr Stidd says:
:: Moves to the CMO:: CMO: Dr. I do not think it is wise for you to be out of bed at this time.  You need your rest from the ordeal.

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
Doll: And you are?

Host Doll says:
CO: And you are? ::She asks mockingly with a smile::

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
:: Steps closer to the captain::  CO: I am reading some form of instability around the doll... not unlike a quantum flux.

CMO Lt Cartwright says:
CEO: Never fails Stidd. Every officer that has ever come onboard this ship has been baptized by me. ::pulls himself to his feet::

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
CSO: Quantum flux?

CEO Cmdr Stidd says:
CMO: It would not have happened if you would not have left your bed.  You need your rest.

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
ALL: It seemed it repeated what I said. Any idea what it is? Also, we should gather those other dolls and have them in some sort of field in case...

Host Doll says:
CO: Do you think I'm pretty?

CMO Lt Cartwright says:
CEO: I'm fine Stidd. ::takes a seat::

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
CO: It is the temporary change in the amount of energy in a point of space arising from Werner Heisenberg's uncertainty principle.

ACTION: The Red Alert klaxons begin to blast through the ship. The sound of weapons fire can be heard.

CEO Cmdr Stidd says:
:: Heads out onto the bridge and to his station to gather reports::

Host Doll says:
::She begins to clap her hands in excitement:: All: Ooo! Pretty red lights!

ACTION: As the CEO steps onto the Bridge, he notices that the Red Alert sirens are not sounding. Everything seems normal.

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
ALL: Trial by fire it seems.... Your hearing the red alert... let's go! ::grabs the doll with her hands and heads for the bridge::

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
:: Looking through the door the CEO exited, notes things are fine there.::

Host Doll says:
CO: Let me go! Let me go! ::She tries to wiggle free::

CMO Lt Cartwright says:
::spins out of his chair and takes a step before hitting the floor again::

CEO Cmdr Stidd says:
::Stops:: Self: Fascinating.  ::Looks around and moves back to look into the conference room again.::

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
::tightens her grip:: Doll: When I'm sure you are a friend and not a foe.

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
*Dunkin*: Within my quarters are some dolls... check with my son.  Have a forcefield placed around them.

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
All: No red alert? ::as she notices the CMO on the floor::

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
CMO: Are you alright?

ACTION: The small doll waves her hand over Captain Adrel and she finds herself miniaturized... she is now the size of the doll herself.

CEO Cmdr Stidd says:
:: Taps his combadge and speaks in Vulcan into it::

CMO Lt Cartwright says:
CO: Just not used to being on my feet again, ma'am.

Host Doll says:
CO: Now you'll know what it feels like you meanie! ::She pushes the CO to the floor::

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
::with a tiny voice as a tiny Adrel would have:: Doll: You find this funny?

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
*Security*: Security to the conference room::

CMO Lt Cartwright says:
::pushes himself up again and walks slowly to SC2::

Host Doll says:
CO: Don't blame me! I didn't want to come to this icky and smelly place!

ACTION: Security arrives a few seconds after being summoned by the Chief Science Officer.

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
::tiny voice:: Doll: Ouch! ::falls down:: Who made you come then?

Host Doll says:
CO: That evil woman! She doesn't like this ship very much...

CMO Lt Cartwright says:
Doll: Her name Murphy?

ACTION: The Doll waves her hand and the Chief Engineering Officer also finds himself the size of a doll.

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
CO: Captain, forgive me.

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
CPU: Computer, initiate a containment field around the captain, CMO and unknown entity.

ACTION: A large roach moves along the floor of the Bridge. It stops near the Captain and looks as if it is going to charge.

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
::tiny voice:: ALL: Can someone put me on a table or something, I'm getting nauseous of looking up.

CMO Lt Cartwright says:
CSO: Ummm, maybe you should pick them up, I don't want to squash them.

CEO Cmdr Stidd says:
::Tries to escape the power but finds himself miniaturized ::

Host Doll says:
CMO: Who is Murphy? ::She giggles as the CEO turns small too:: All: This is fun!

CMO Lt Cartwright says:
::steps on the roach::

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
::tiny voice:: CSO: Don't worry, Lt, the containment field is a good idea.

ACTION: As the CMO steps on the roach, the vibrations leaving his feet cause the CO and Doll to fall to the floor.

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
::tiny voice:: CEO: Welcome to tiny land.... ::as she falls down::

ACTION: The containment field shimmers into existence.

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
::tiny voice:: CMO: Please watch where you step, Lt. ::as she leaves some milkshake on the floor as she gets up::

CEO Cmdr Stidd says:
CO: Well, at least I am in good company if you are here.  May I help you up?

Host Doll says:
::She smiles and steps out through the containment field and looks back up at the Science Chief:: CSO: The mean woman remembers you.

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
CSO/CMO: Well, you'll have to find what's happening because we can't do much the CEO and I

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
:: Seeing it did not good::  CPU: Remove containment field.

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
Doll: May I ask what woman remembers me?

ACTION: The containment field shimmers out of existence.

CMO Lt Cartwright says:
CO: Well my first instinct would be to squash the doll::

Host Doll says:
CSO: The one in the place. She remembers that dark haired man and that wrinkle nosed one too.

CMO Lt Cartwright says:
::picks up Stidd and the CO and puts them on a console::

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
CMO: But the doll may have info we need... so before squashing, a bit of interrogating and research.

ACTION: As the Chief Medical Officer touches the two, he finds himself now shrunk to their size.

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
:: Sits down by the entity:: Doll: What place?

CMO Lt Cartwright says:
::looks up:: Outloud: Oy vey.

Host Doll says:
CSO: You're too big. Come down here a minute. ::She waives her hand and the CSO also becomes small::

CEO Cmdr Stidd says:
CMO: Well, Dr. maybe next time you will listen to your doctor and remain in bed rest.

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
Doll: It would have been more logical for one to grow then many to shrink.  But please, continue.  You would like to go home and we would like to return to our normal status.

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
ALL: Any ideas so we can get back our size?

Host Doll says:
CEO: How come you have pointy ears? Are you a nymph?

CMO Lt Cartwright says:
::starts to stumble a bit, looking nauseated;:

CEO Cmdr Stidd says:
Doll: No, I am a Vulcan.  We are a race of people in this part of the universe.

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
CEO: A nymph is a mythological creature of Earth.

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
Doll: A nymph?      ALL: That doll talks like it is from a children’s bedtime story....

Host Doll says:
CSO: Well... we were told we had to come and play here, but we don't really like it here. We miss our home.

Host Doll says:
CO: Are you always a Miss Meanie Pants?

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
Doll: I will do my best to help you get home.  Please, have patience with us.

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
Doll: When people are shrinking me, yes.

CEO Cmdr Stidd says:
CSO: Thank you for that information, but I was already aware of that entity.

Host Doll says:
CO: The mean lady was right. The boss people are mean here too...

CMO Lt Cartwright says:
::loses what he had drank of his milkshake::

ACTION: At that comment, the Doll disappears in a shimmer of rainbow colored lights.

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
:: Stands quietly and moves over to the captain, her voice very quiet:: CO: The entities action is more that of a child... if you could treat it as such we might get further.

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
ALL: Mmm... where did it go now?

CEO Cmdr Stidd says:
CMO: Are you alright?

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
CSO: I'm not too familiar with being around children, unless they are my patients.

CMO Lt Cartwright says:
CEO: Thinking maybe you are right. I should've stayed in bed.

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
:: Says nothing as she turns and heads for the door. Taps her comm badge:: *Dunkin*: Are the dolls secured?

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
CSO: Maybe it rejoined the other dolls? We should verify.

ACTION: The Chief Science Officer's Combadge does not seem to be functioning.

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
:: Sighs and turns to look up at the bewildered face of the security officers.  Motions one of them down to a lower level::

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
CMO: From what I'm hearing, Lt, it seems you should have stayed in sickbay. Once we are back to our shape, you'll have to go back.

Host Voice says:
ALL: You are all so very detail oriented. It seems that Starfleet has not changed a bit. Perhaps it is time for me to teach those of the USS Sharikahr a lesson... and then Starfleet!

CMO Lt Cartwright says:
::passes out::

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
:: Lifts a brow at that comment.::

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
::kneels next to the CMO and checks his vital signs "old style" like since no med tricorders fit in her hands::

CEO Cmdr Stidd says:
::Raises an eyebrow and marks the voice::

CSO Lt So`tsoh says:
:: Looks from the passed out doctor to the captain:: CO: Elizabeth Murphy...

CEO Cmdr Stidd says:
CO: He may be suffering the side effects of a mind meld and not just an illness.

Host CO Capt Adrel says:
CMO: Mind meld? He is fine... he just fainted.... ::gets up and tries to process the name the CSO just said... doesn't ring a bell::
