Last week on the Tal-War:
 
The Tal-War crew started the mission separated. Three crewmembers are forced to show the hostile aliens who took over the ship how various systems work. Having just effected an understanding between himself and an alien, Lynam tries to get a peaceful settlement to no avail.  After having taken back their ship by force, the three crew search for the rest of their compatriots.
 
Meanwhile, the rest of the crew is being held in cells against their will by this heretofore unknown, but seemingly hostile race. The CO plans an escape attempt that is successful. OPS manages to raise the ship and the crew gets beamed back to the Tal-War.  Some of the crew are injured, the XO most severely.

Host Quchant says:
ACTION: The reports of repaired systems continue to flood into the Operations Console on the bridge

CTO_Kyrron says:
::on the bridge at a tactical console::

ATO_Bost`k says:
:: at the tactical console inputting firing sequences::

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
::Sitting in his chair on the bridge:: All: Status

FCO_Shania says:
::on the bridge::

XO_Llewellyn says:
::on the biobed hearing the bioregeneration collar finish::

AMO_Kedi says:
::looks up and sees B'lee:: OPS: Are you okay?

CTO_Kyrron says:
::checks the status of repairs on the weapons systems and shields::

CMO_Brock says:
::watching over his patient in sickbay::

OPS_B`lee says:
::looks up in surprise as Kedi approaches:: MO: ...oh, I thought Doctor Brock would be down here today.

CIV_Lynam says:
::In TIC::

AMO_Kedi says:
OPS: He is, he's working on the XO. You look awful. Come over here and sit down.

CTO_Kyrron says:
CO:  Weapons systems are fully operational.  Shields are at 15%.

OPS_B`lee says:
::reluctantly follows the kitty-kat's wagging tail over to a biobed::

XO_Llewellyn says:
CMO: Well... ::smiles:: can I go get a new uniform?

Host Quchant says:
ACTION: The status displays on the operations console are checked by the stand-in ops manager

AMO_Kedi says:
::waits for him to sit down and gives him a hug:: OPS: It'll be okay. ::pats him on the back lightly::

CTO_Kyrron says:
ATO:  Check the status of targeting systems.

FCO_Shania says:
::checks navigational systems::

CMO_Brock says:
::looks up to see the OPS being led to a bio-bed then to the XO:: XO: I have taken the opportunity to replicate a new one for you. We are a full service medical center. ::smiles::

CIV_Lynam says:
Deck Officer: Ready all fighters for anti-ship combat.  Rearm the Diamondbacks with torpedoes.  Put the Marauders up first for launch.  Also, finish the pod change out on the runabouts and load torpedoes.

OPS_B`lee says:
::is surprised by the hug and hops up on the biobed and shows her his arm:: MO: One of those friggin' aliens got a pretty good swipe at my arm.

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
CTO: We're going to need more than 15 percent I'm afraid... Thank you.

ATO_Bost`k says:
:: checks targeting systems::

CTO_Kyrron says:
CO:  As soon as some resources are freed up we should be able to improve that Captain.

AMO_Kedi says:
OPS: Awww... ::looks over his arm:: That looks pretty bad.

CMO_Brock says:
XO: You can change in the room over there. ::points to a small room off to the side as he deactivates the regenerator::

FCO_Shania says:
CO: Navigational systems are online. External sensors are coming online.

OPS_B`lee says:
::nods:: MO: Yeah.... ::gently:: ...umm, are you like ... qualified ... for this kind of thing? ::tries to say it gently::

ATO_Bost`k says:
CTO: targeting systems aren't too good sir

AMO_Kedi says:
::looks up at Brock:: CMO: Do I use the dermal regenerator on scratches?

XO_Llewellyn says:
:nods:: CMO: Thank you... I should be getting back to the bridge. ::looks down at her blood soaked and strategically ripped shirt:: and this will just not do well up there.

CTO_Kyrron says:
ATO:  Adjust them as best you can.  Never know when we might have to shoot somebody.  ::grins::

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
::Nods:: CTO: Very well. ::turns to Shania:: FCO: Excellent. Can you get details on what's in the surrounding area?

CMO_Brock says:
::moves over to the OPS:: OPS: And what is your major malfunction? ::begins to put on his rubber gloves snapping them for effect::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::notices some power has been freed up and begins reinforcing shields::

CMO_Brock says:
MO: No. I think I can handle this one. ::smiles at the MO::

AMO_Kedi says:
::Yelps at the snap of the gloves and scoots away::

OPS_B`lee says:
::sighs as he sees Brock's going to be the prickly pear he normally is:: CMO: My arm hurts... ::facetiously::

ATO_Bost`k says:
CTO: that's my favorite part of the job  :: smiles then tries to adjust the targeting systems::

FCO_Shania says:
CO: Scanning now

XO_Llewellyn says:
::sees the CMO is finished with her, goes with a new uniform to change in the room the CMO mentioned::

CIV_Lynam says:
Deck Officer: Coordinate with Flight Control, have them prepare four shuttlecraft for anti-tractor beam duty.  They will interpose their shields between us and any of those energy draining tractor beams.  Not very healthy duty, but...

CTO_Kyrron says:
::chuckles while she works::

CMO_Brock says:
::touches the OPS::

AMO_Kedi says:
CMO: Brock are you sure? ::looks at the expression on the OPS' face::

CIV_Lynam says:
<Deck Officer> ::Nods and is doubly glad she did poorly in flight training::

XO_Llewellyn says:
::enters the room closes the door and then starts changing::

OPS_B`lee says:
::wonders why the CMO is feeling him up::

CMO_Brock says:
::touches the OPS’ arm:: OPS: Does this hurt?

FCO_Shania says:
CO: It appears that about half a dozen SF ships are coming in, weapon systems powered up.

CTO_Kyrron says:
::is happy to hear that::

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
::Arches a brow:: FCO: Range and ETA?

CIV_Lynam says:
<Deck Officer> *FCO*: Flight control, this is TIC.  Please prepare four shuttles for anti-tractor beam duty.  They are to use their shields to block any of the alien tractor beams aimed at the ship.

OPS_B`lee says:
CMO: When you jab your finger into one of the cuts? Yeah, it hurts. ::grimaces::

XO_Llewellyn says:
::finishes changing, sighs as she really needs a good bath after this is over... maybe Donnie will join her... smiles at that thought::

FCO_Shania says:
*TIC* Will do

CTO_Kyrron says:
::overhears the comm and is reminded that she hoped to reconstruct their sensor data on the aliens’ tractor beams::

CMO_Brock says:
::scans his arm:: OPS: Good. Just want to make sure there is no nerve damage. ::grins::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::remains concentrated on improving shield strength::

FCO_Shania says:
CO: ETA 12 minutes at high warp

OPS_B`lee says:
::wonders if there is someone around here between the kitty-kat and the pit bull::

AMO_Kedi says:
CMO: Brock, I can do it ::twitches her tail and sighs::

XO_Llewellyn says:
::exits the room, in her new uniform:: CMO/MO/OPS: I'll be returning to the bridge.

OPS_B`lee says:
::smiles at Kedi:: MO: He's doing fine, Kiz ... don't worry.

CTO_Kyrron says:
ATO:  Any luck with the targeting systems?  Could we at least hit the broad side of a barn?

CMO_Brock says:
MO: Sure. Here you go. ::hands her the dermal regenerator and nods to the XO::

OPS_B`lee says:
::glances at Llewellyn and notes she's wearing a different uniform then the one she entered the room in ... wonders how he missed her changing::

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
FCO: Strange... they must have somehow tracked our journey. Any signs of alien installations or vessels?

FCO_Shania says:
CO: External comms are up if you wanna talk to the ships.

AMO_Kedi says:
OPS: But it looks like he's hurting you. CMO: Brock be nice. ::looks down at the regenerator:: O goodie! This is my first time with a live patient.

XO_Llewellyn says:
::smiles sweetly at B'lee, having just registered the mixture of confusion and general lust:: OPS: Maybe next time...

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
FCO: Aye, hail the lead ship...

OPS_B`lee says:
::groans slightly and glares at Brock as he hands Kedi the dermal regenerator::

XO_Llewellyn says:
OPS: Get well. ::leaves sickbay::

Host Quchant says:
ACTION: Just as the FCO goes to open Comms the Tal-War itself is hailed by the lead ship

OPS_B`lee says:
XO: Yeah, umm.... ::voice trails off as the doors to sickbay close behind the XO::

ATO_Bost`k says:
CTO: targeting systems are back up and we're ready to shoot stuff. :: smiles::

CMO_Brock says:
::notices the glare from OPS and smiles to himself:: OPS: Training is part of Starfleet life.

XO_Llewellyn says:
::walks down the corridor to the lift, a small swish in her step... likes teasing B'lee... a lot::

CTO_Kyrron says:
CO:  We should be able to start increasing shield strength now.

CIV_Lynam says:
<Deck Officer> CIV: VF-82 is armed and ready for launch.  VF-102 is midway through rearming, eta ten minutes.  All EW birds are prepped for launch.  I have two runabouts ready with torpedoes, two more will be up in 30 minutes.

AMO_Kedi says:
::looks over the regenerator, trying to remember how to turn it on. Locates the "On" switch:: Self: Oh! ::walks over to B'lee and begins to repair his arm::

XO_Llewellyn says:
::presses the button for the lift::

FCO_Shania says:
CO: We are being hailed by the lead ship.

Host Quchant says:
<USS Missouri> COM: USS Tal-War: This is the USS Missouri...hailing Captain Jordaïn

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
CTO/FCO: Thank you both... ::stands up::

OPS_B`lee says:
::watches apprehensively as the MO goes to work on his arm::

XO_Llewellyn says:
::enters the lift:: TL: Bridge.

CMO_Brock says:
::watches the MO work on the OPS ensuring that it is done correctly::

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
COM: Missouri: This is Captain Jordaïn of the USS Tal-War. I must say it is a pleasant surprise to hear from you...

CMO_Brock says:
OPS: How did you manage to get your arm scratched?

Host Quchant says:
<USS Missouri> COM: USS Tal-War: Captain...good...you're ok.....can you maneuver away from the asteroid?

AMO_Kedi says:
::hums under her breath as she fixes his scratches::

OPS_B`lee says:
CMO: One of the aliens attacked us while we were trying to get out of the cell. In the ensuing brawl, I got scratched.

CTO_Kyrron says:
::working on increasing shield strength::

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
FCO: Do we have engines online?

FCO_Shania says:
CO: Thrusters and impulse are up.

CMO_Brock says:
MO: A little closer to his arm. ::gently moves her arm closer to B'lee's::

XO_Llewellyn says:
::arrives on the bridge:: CO: I have returned. What would you like me to do?

CIV_Lynam says:
::Watches the Starfleet task force arriving in the area.::

AMO_Kedi says:
::blushes:: CMO: Okay Brock. OPS: Sorry, I'm a little nervous.

CMO_Brock says:
OPS: Hmmmm..... ::scans his arm again for possible infection::

CMO_Brock says:
MO: That's okay. You are doing fine.

OPS_B`lee says:
::came in here cause he thought this would be a quick trip::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::notices the XO looks much better than when she was last seen::

AMO_Kedi says:
::finishes:: OPS: Okay. CMO: IS that good Brock?

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
::nods at Shania:: COM: USS Missouri: We have maneuvering power. ::turns to see Llewellyn:: XO: Commander! Glad to see you patched up again. We have company. ::points at the screen::

CMO_Brock says:
OPS: When Miss Kedi is done you can return to duty. MO: Well done.

XO_Llewellyn says:
::looks at the screen::

OPS_B`lee says:
::nods at Brock:: CMO: Okay...

Host Quchant says:
<USS Missouri> COM: USS Tal-War: Good... proceed away from the asteroid at full power....the rest of this fleet will take it from here....

CMO_Brock says:
::moves back to his office to update the medical history records for the XO and the OPS officers::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::looks a bit disappointed::

Host Quchant says:
<USS Missouri> COM: USS Tal-War: please....hail when you are at least 10,000km away

AMO_Kedi says:
::grins:: OPS: Okay, you're back to normal again

OPS_B`lee says:
::watches Brock walk away and gets off the biobed:: MO: Thanks Kiz... ::gives her a hug like she gave him when he came in::

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
::Looks somewhat confused:: COM: USS Missouri: Understood, we're on our way. ::turns attention to the crew:: All: Okay folks, we're getting out of here...

XO_Llewellyn says:
::furrows her brow:: CO: If there's anyone to be kicking these aliens' collective rears it should be us!

Host Quchant says:
ACTION: Channel to the Missouri closes

XO_Llewellyn says:
::growls in a bit of frustration, then sighs as orders are orders::

CTO_Kyrron says:
CO/XO:  Respectfully Sirs... Commander Lynam has gathered some useful intelligence about their motives.  A diplomatic solution might be possible.

XO_Llewellyn says:
:: hears the CTO, is surprised::

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
XO: Indeed... although we are not in perfect shape ourselves... FCO: If you get any signs of those aliens out there, I want you to hail them instantly... CTO: I very much agree, commander...

AMO_Kedi says:
::blushes:: OPS: Take care of yourself B'lee

OPS_B`lee says:
::before letting her out of the hug, smacks her on the rear playfully and heads out the door:: MO: See yah next time...

FCO_Shania says:
CO: Aye sir

ATO_Bost`k says:
:: keeps an eye on tactical sensors::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::raises an eyebrow and goes back to working on the shields::

AMO_Kedi says:
::yelps and narrows her eyes, growling under her breath::

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
FCO: And initiate takeoff sequence...

FCO_Shania says:
CO: Understood

CMO_Brock says:
MO: Kiz, let me show you how to update the medical records.

OPS_B`lee says:
::strolls down a corridor of the Tal-War, his uniform looking immaculate except for this left sleeve which is torn to shreds::

AMO_Kedi says:
CMO: Okay. ::trots into the office::

CTO_Kyrron says:
CO/XO:  Shield strength is up to 50%.

CTO_Kyrron says:
::continues working::

ATO_Bost`k says:
:: checks up on the sec teams::

CMO_Brock says:
MO: First, access the records for the patient.....::continues to show her how to update and record the medical treatment provided::

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
FCO: You may fire those thrusters, commander. Steady course towards the Starfleet group...

OPS_B`lee says:
::stops at a uniform vending machine and strips off his duty tunic, shoving it into the machine and watching a replacement pop out at the bottom ... takes the replacement tunic and slips it over his head ... good as new::

AMO_Kedi says:
::sits down in his lap:: CMO: Oh neato.

XO_Llewellyn says:
CTO: Good.... when we are done with this mission I'd like to speak with either you or Commander Lynam about how a diplomatic solution is possible... for on the asteroid it was a very different story.

FCO_Shania says:
CO: Aye sir, going to blue alert. ::initiates thrusters::

CTO_Kyrron says:
XO:  Commander Lynam made the contact.  He'd be your best source.

XO_Llewellyn says:
::nods:: CTO: Thank you.

CMO_Brock says:
::puts his arm around her waist:: MO: You did well for your first patient. ::smiles::

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
::sits down again::

OPS_B`lee says:
::sees the blue lights flash as he pulls his duty tunic on:: Self: Oh cripes, my liquors hidden in one of the landing struts!

CTO_Kyrron says:
CO/XO:  Shields at 65%.

AMO_Kedi says:
::blushes:: CMO: You think? I was a little nervous.

XO_Llewellyn says:
::is still extremely dissatisfied with the results of this mission, sighs as she sits down::

CMO_Brock says:
MO: You did fine. You showed concern for the patient and wanted to make sure he was comfortable. Good job.

OPS_B`lee says:
::hurries down the corridor wondering if he can get to his liquor stash in time::

AMO_Kedi says:
::giggles and kisses him on the cheek:: CMO: Thanks Brock.

CIV_Lynam says:
<Deck Officer> CIV: VF-82 is armed and ready.

XO_Llewellyn says:
CO: So where are we off to now?

CMO_Brock says:
MO: Let's clean up and put sickbay back in order. ::tickles her then kisses her soft lips::

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
::Takes a long deep breath:: XO: Heading towards the incoming vessels... the Missouri captain asked to hail again once we're at 10,000km above the asteroid.

CIV_Lynam says:
*CTO*: TIC to bridge, we have two squadrons ready for launch.  Unless we're planning to warp out of here right now, I suggest we get them in the air.

AMO_Kedi says:
::blushes:: CMO: Can't we clean up later?

ATO_Bost`k says:
CTO: do you think that Starfleet is going to destroy the asteroid?

CTO_Kyrron says:
*CIV*:  We are rendezvousing with the Starfleet ships.  Use your judgment, but it doesn't look like we're meant to be part of the battle.

CTO_Kyrron says:
ATO:  Actually.... I hope not, but fear so.

Host Quchant says:
ACTION: the USS Tal-War reaches the 10K mark

CIV_Lynam says:
*CTO*: Then we are going to launch.

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
FCO: Hail the Missouri again.

FCO_Shania says:
CO. Aye sir ::hails the ship::

CTO_Kyrron says:
CO/XO:  TIC is launching two escort squadrons.

OPS_B`lee says:
::arrives on the bridge, having given up on reclaiming his liquor, and heads for his station realizing the Petty Officer there::

CMO_Brock says:
::looks into brown eyes:: MO: You know, I think we can. Computer: Secure sickbay, authorization Alpha 2-9-Gamma.

Host Quchant says:
<USS Missouri> COM: USS Tal-War: Captain... ::points at two men in dark suits:: ....these men are here to see you

AMO_Kedi says:
::blushes:: CMO: Brock, you silly boy.

CTO_Kyrron says:
Thinks to self:  Men in black?

Host Quchant says:
<DM1> COM: USS Tal-War: Captain Jordaïn?

CIV_Lynam says:
Deck Officer: Launch.

OPS_B`lee says:
::glances at the two men on the view screen:: Self: Well now they've seen us ... see yah.

ATO_Bost`k says:
CTO: why would men in black want to talk to the CO?

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
::Looks up at the screen again:: COM: USS Missouri DM1: That would be me.

CTO_Kyrron says:
CO/XO:  Shields are at 80%

XO_Llewellyn says:
::wonders who these people are::

Host Quchant says:
<DM2> COM: USS Tal-War: Captain Cix Jordaïn?

CTO_Kyrron says:
ATO:  I have no idea.  Who are they, do you know?

XO_Llewellyn says:
CTO: Excellent! ::smiles::

CIV_Lynam says:
::Watches as the eager pilots roar out  of the bay and begin forming up::

OPS_B`lee says:
All: Hey, they know his full name. CO: I always wondered what the C was for...

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
COM: USS Missouri DM2: Cix Naul Jordaïn, yes...

Host Quchant says:
<DM2> COM: USS Tal-War: Good....this is Brack...and I'm Dreck.......is your executive officer around?

OPS_B`lee says:
::spends several moments admiring Commander Llewellyn's backside in her new uniform .... imagines why kind of under garments she might be wearing and gets quite creative with his imagination::

ATO_Bost`k says:
CTO: I’m not sure but I know that it's never a good thing to see them

CIV_Lynam says:
Strike: Inform the flight leaders that, if the aliens appear and battle is joined, to attack using a dispersion pattern.  Minimize the number of fighters they can target with those beams.  Order all pilots to concentrate fore on the tractor beam emitters.

XO_Llewellyn says:
::stands and senses B'lee's eyes all over her backside, hides a smile::

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
::smiles:: COM: USS Missouri DM2: Standing right next to me. ::turns head gestures at Llewellyn::

OPS_B`lee says:
::shakes his head and goes back to paying attention to Brack and Dreck:: Self: Sounds like a really awful band...

XO_Llewellyn says:
::nods and smiles at the "nice" men on the screen, standing close to the CO::

OPS_B`lee says:
::after years of being in trouble with authority, grows quite uncomfortable at the fact that these two men know the Captain and Commander on a first name basis::

Host Quchant says:
<DM1> COM: USS Tal-War: Commander Llewellyn....by order of the Department of Temporal Affairs you are ordered to place Captain Jordaïn into custody immediately for violations against the Temporal Prime Directive.

CIV_Lynam says:
Deck Officer: After the squadrons are deployed, launch the EW birds.  They are to concentrate on jamming alien targeting scanners.

CTO_Kyrron says:
::eyes widen::

XO_Llewellyn says:
::is surprised, looks at Jordaïn a moment:: CO: Um....

OPS_B`lee says:
::raises an eyebrow at that::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::looks toward the XO::

Host Quchant says:
<DM2> COM: USS Tal-War: Now Commander

CIV_Lynam says:
::Gets called over by a communication tech who is listening intently to something.::

AMO_Kedi says:
::giggles:: CMO: Brock, what if someone gets hurt?

XO_Llewellyn says:
CTO: Take Captain Jordaïn into custody.... ::looks like she really doesn't want to do this::

ATO_Bost`k says:
Self: what the...

CTO_Kyrron says:
XO:  Brig or confined to quarters?

OPS_B`lee says:
::looks at the Chief of Security:: CTO: Well? What are you waiting for?

CMO_Brock says:
MO: We help them. ::grins::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::glares at OPS::

OPS_B`lee says:
::glares right back at her::

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
::Blinks:: XO: Hmm, interesting. COM: USS Missouri DM's: Also pleased to meet you there... ::turns back:: XO: Keep my people safe, commander. Whatever the cost... ::very serious look:: I don't trust this at all...

CIV_Lynam says:
<Com Tech> CIV: The Missouri just ordered the Captain placed under arrest, by order of the temporal corps.  ::said quietly and with concern::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::steps us beside the CO::  CO:  Sorry about this Captain.

XO_Llewellyn says:
CTO: Quarters.... unless I have missed my guess... ::looks at the CO:: CO: You are not going to struggle... ::hears him:: I will of course do my best.

AMO_Kedi says:
::looks over at Slimer's cage:: CMO: And what about B'lee?

OPS_B`lee says:
::contact a Junior OPS officer in the bowels of the ship and orders him to deliver B'lee's personal collection of holo-vids and holo-"novels" to Captain Jordaïn's quarters immediately::

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
CTO/XO: I don't struggle against the people I trust, commanders...

CIV_Lynam says:
::Frowns::  Self: Temporal corps?  What the *&%$%^ do they want with the CO?

ATO_Bost`k says:
CTO: do you want me to post guards on his quarters?

CTO_Kyrron says:
ATO:  Station two tactical officers outside the CO's quarters.  CO:  Ready to go?

OPS_B`lee says:
::thinks its a good thing he's not the one taking the CO into custody then, since the CO would no doubt be struggling::

XO_Llewellyn says:
::looks sad and concerned:: CO: We will do what we can to get you out of this bind.

OPS_B`lee says:
XO: Think of it as a much needed vacation. ::shrugs::

XO_Llewellyn says:
COM: Missouri: MIB: When will we be getting the details of this... situation?

CMO_Brock says:
MO: We are doctors. We will do all that we can to assist the injured. ::notices Kiz looking at Slimer:: You have that devilish look. What are you thinking?

CIV_Lynam says:
::Hears a report that the Electronic Warfare Kanedas are airborne now and forming a perimeter around the Tal-War.::

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
::Nods:: CTO: Sore... XO: I know you will. Just don't let them take over the ship or so... it's yours for now, make sure to keep it that way. ::turns to face the TL::

Host Quchant says:
<DM2> COM: USS Tal-War: That's classified Commander

ATO_Bost`k says:
:: sends the orders for 2 sec personnel to be posted at the door::

CTO_Kyrron says:
CO:  After you Sir.  ::gestures toward the TL::

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
::Slowly steps into the TL::

Host Quchant says:
<DM1> COM: USS Tal-War: When the Captain is in his quarters, patch through this communication to the terminal there

XO_Llewellyn says:
::feels almost lost without him as Commanding Officer, but has to put that aside to assume command and do her best for the Captain and the crew::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::follows the CO into the TL::

CTO_Kyrron says:
CO:  What is this all about, or can you not say?

AMO_Kedi says:
::grins and hops to her feet and pulls Slimer out of his cage, and plops him down on Brock's head with a grin::

CIV_Lynam says:
Deck Officer: Prep VF-86 for launch.

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
::Sighs:: CTO: I haven't the faintest... for all I know this could be a setup or a hoax by the aliens. I am following protocol now, to ensure the safety of my people.

XO_Llewellyn says:
COM: Missouri: DM1&2: Of course it is classified! ::a little sharp:: I am sorry...  *CTO*: Let me know when the captain is safe in his quarters.

CTO_Kyrron says:
::riding along in the TL::  CO:  Understood.  Let me know if you need anything.

CTO_Kyrron says:
*XO*:  Will do.

CMO_Brock says:
::looks at Kiz as Slimer's secretions ooze down his head:: MO: Thanks a lot. ::tickles Kiz::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::watches as the TL doors open on the correct deck, whatever it may be::

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
CTO: Thank you commander. ::exits the TL and enters the next door into his quarters::

AMO_Kedi says:
::giggles:: CMO: What? I know you like to play with him, and he misses riding around on your head.

XO_Llewellyn says:
*CTO*: Also... take every precaution you deem necessary to protect him.

CTO_Kyrron says:
*XO*:  He is in his quarters.  Protect him from what?

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
::Walks over to his desk and activated his console as he sits down::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::gives instructions to the guards posted outside the CO's quarters::

XO_Llewellyn says:
*CTO*: From any who might wish to do him harm.... ::doesn't trust these guys either::

Host Quchant says:
<DM1> COM: USS Tal-War: Commander...are you implying you knew this was going to happen

CTO_Kyrron says:
*ATO*:  Monitor the location of the CO at all times.  If he disappears from his quarters, or is joined there by anyone or anything, I want to know about it.

Host Quchant says:
<DM2> COM: USS Tal-War: a prediction of a pre-destination paradox?

CTO_Kyrron says:
::enters the TL::

XO_Llewellyn says:
::goes  over to the OPS station:: OPS: Patch through the communication to the station as they requested.

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
::Drums fingers on his desk::

ATO_Bost`k says:
*CTO*: yes sir. do you want me to place men inside his quarters?

OPS_B`lee says:
XO: Aye Commander.... ::patches through the com:: XO: Permission to close the channel to the Missouri?

XO_Llewellyn says:
COM: Missouri: DMs: No... I have no idea what you are talking about.

CTO_Kyrron says:
*ATO*:  Not unless the XO orders it done.

ATO_Bost`k says:
:: monitors CO's position::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::riding along in the TL::

CMO_Brock says:
::takes Slimer off his head and sets him down on the floor:: MO: Now you are gonna get it. ::laughs and rubs his head against Kiz::

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
::Momentarily looks up at his swords collection, then hears a bleep::

ATO_Bost`k says:
*CTO*: ok

CIV_Lynam says:
*CTO*: Tactical, please get me the tactical data on the ships in that fleet?  Captains, First Officers, etc.  Also, the schematics for their command consoles.  Just in case.

CTO_Kyrron says:
::arrives on the bridge::

AMO_Kedi says:
::dodges:: CMO: Brock! Now I have to go get another outfit on! This one has slime on it!

XO_Llewellyn says:
CTO: I told you to take care of the Captain's security, if you feel it necessary to place men in his quarters, you have my permission to do so.

Host Quchant says:
<DM2> COM: USS Tal-War: ::sees the Captain in his quarters::....Good.....We apologies for having to have you arrest him and confine him...but it was the quickest way to do this....::beckons off to the side::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::thinks about that for a minute::  CIV:  I'll start immediately.

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
::twiddles thumbs::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::nods at the XO and approaches the ATO::

XO_Llewellyn says:
::furrows her brow, watching what they are doing::

CTO_Kyrron says:
ATO:  Do you have him?

ATO_Bost`k says:
CTO: yes

CIV_Lynam says:
Deck: Launch the "Screwtops", send them on an orbital track 1 million Km around this fleet and us.  I want as much warning as possible about an alien approach.

Host Quchant says:
ACTION: The viewscreens show a very very very old man walk slowly into view.....looks strangely familiar

CMO_Brock says:
::looks at Kiz:: MO: And I'm not stopping you from changing.

ATO_Bost`k says:
CTO: I’ve also linked his position in with the red alert system so if he leaves it will go off

OPS_B`lee says:
::watches the viewscreen, his elbow propped up on a console ... wonders who the old guy is::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::wonders about posting guards in his room but decides against it.  Their shield strength is almost at 100% which should prevent his being transported off::

XO_Llewellyn says:
::looks at the old man:: COM: Missouri: Old Man: Captain.... is that you?

AMO_Kedi says:
CMO: But Brock, I don't have any other clothes in here, I'll have to go back to my quarters.

CTO_Kyrron says:
ATO:  Identify the other Starfleet ships and direct their records to Commander Lynam.

CIV_Lynam says:
::Hears a gasp from the com tech and walks over to look at her small screen::

Host Quchant says:
<OM> COM: USS Tal-War: Hello Heather.......good to see you again......it's been ...so long

ATO_Bost`k says:
CTO: aye sir  :: gets to work::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::looks up at the viewscreen::

XO_Llewellyn says:
:;is very confused:: Self: I hate time stuff....

CTO_Kyrron says:
::looks at the old man closely::

CMO_Brock says:
MO: You can replicate new clothes here.

OPS_B`lee says:
Self: The future is the past, the past is the future, it's all enough to give me a headache.

CTO_Kyrron says:
::runs a voice pattern comparison of the old man and the CO::

ATO_Bost`k says:
CTO: is that our captain?

CIV_Lynam says:
::Looks closely at the screen::  Self: Well, I guess the time cops DO have a point.

XO_Llewellyn says:
COM: Missouri: OM: What happened?

AMO_Kedi says:
::trots over to the replicator:: CMO: What should I wear, Brock?

CTO_Kyrron says:
XO/ATO:  That is our Captain.

XO_Llewellyn says:
::nods, in recognition of what the CTO said::

OPS_B`lee says:
::sharply:: CTO: That is not our Captain. Our Captain is locked away in his quarters on deck 2. That's just some old guy that looks a lot like him.

CMO_Brock says:
MO: Something flattering.

Host Quchant says:
<OM> COM: USS Tal-War: I don't know....I ....can't remember.......::looks at the image of the CO::....Hello....heh...me

CTO_Kyrron says:
OPS:  The voice pattern is his.  Short of getting a DNA sample it's fairly strong evidence.

AMO_Kedi says:
::blushes:: CMO: Oh....help me pick.

ATO_Bost`k says:
:: checks on the CO::

OPS_B`lee says:
CTO: I don't care what kind of evidence you have. ::points at viewscreen:: CTO: That is not our Captain.

CIV_Lynam says:
::Hears from another tech that most of their systems are functional again and that some data on the Starfleet ships is coming in.::

CTO_Kyrron says:
ATO:  I think maybe we should send a couple of security people to keep the CO company in his quarters.

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
::Notices his console is still blinking and hits the main button::

XO_Llewellyn says:
::nods in agreement with the CTO::

OPS_B`lee says:
CTO: He may be the same person ... but he's not the same man. ::grumbles::

ATO_Bost`k says:
CTO: aye sir. :: sends some men then sends the info to the CIV::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::gives OPS a curiously understanding look::

OPS_B`lee says:
::sees the XO take the Captain's chair, steps down onto the Command Deck and slides into the XO's chair:: XO: So what's our plan to get the Captain out of this mess?

XO_Llewellyn says:
COM: Missouri: OM/DMs: I want to know everything you can tell me.

CIV_Lynam says:
Deck: CIV: The early warning ships are out the door and proceeding to their patrol locations, eta is eight minutes.

CTO_Kyrron says:
::has an overwhelming urge to order OPS back to his station, but refrains::

XO_Llewellyn says:
OPS: I want information... as much as you can get me.

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
::Arches brows as the patched-through image appears:: Self: What the... ::looks closer::

ATO_Bost`k says:
CTO: shouldn't the old man be arrested then?

OPS_B`lee says:
XO: We should have the old man examined by our own Doctors...

CTO_Kyrron says:
ATO:  It’s a temporal matter apparently.  Who knows what the right thing to do would be.

CMO_Brock says:
MO: How about this one. ::points to a selection on the replicator::

XO_Llewellyn says:
OPS: Agreed... ::notices he is in her chair:: I need you back at your station.

Host CO_Jordaïn says:
::Touches his screen:: Self: It can't be...

CIV_Lynam says:
::Looks at the tactical display and sighs, knowing there is little more to be done to protct the ship against another alien attack.::

OPS_B`lee says:
::in surprise:: XO: What? I am at my station? If you're the Captain now, you're going to need a right hand B'lee! 

ATO_Bost`k says:
:: sec men enter the CO's quarters::

Tal-War Mission Summary:

The crew of the USS Tal-War having just escaped the alien prison and killed the aliens that held them captive on the ship, made some repairs to ship and personnel. A task force made up of 6 ships arrives, lead by the Missouri. They are contacted by the USS Missouri and are told to arrest Captain Jordaïn for temporal violations. Lieutenant Commander Llewellyn hesitantly takes over command of the Tal-War, not fully trusting the men who identify themselves as temporal investigators. She orders the CTO to take the Captain into protective custody in his quarters. The crew is surprised to see a very much older Cix Jordain on their viewscreen. Still in hostile alien space, the crew is in quite a predicament.
