It was a Wild World, Pt 4

Host Chris_N says:
U.S.S. Tal-War mission, It Was a Wild World, Part Four.  Stardate 10405.01.

Host Chris_N says:
SYNOPSIS:  The Sekloth Order has transported the Senior Staff of the Tal-War, minus the OPS Officer, to Llewsor on one of their clandestine Chameleon class ships.

Host Chris_N says:
On the planet the XO's team is confronted with the task of convincing the Leader of the nearly dead world that the Duranni are using the veil of assistance in order to remove a substance from the atmosphere that can generate massive power.

Host Chris_N says:
Several meters away, a second team commanded by the CO is in hiding as a tactical defense considering past history between the Llewsorians and a Federation vessel.

Host Chris_N says:
Unfortunately, due to residual radiation, the CTO CSO, FCO and XO have all been transported back to the Sekloth vessel for treatment.

Host Chris_N says:
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< RESUME >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Host CO_Kyrron says:
@::hiding in the trees watching the meeting::

TO_MacAllister says:
::speaking to Xof::

Host Chris_N says:
<XOF> ::standing waiting to hear this explanation as to why he shouldn't listen to the Duranni::

Host CO_Kyrron says:
@::checks the EO's position::

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#standing at the secondary station just behind the command pit on the bridge, watching the incoming sensor data::

TO_MacAllister says:
Xof: My apologies for my colleagues seems they can't handle the residual radiation.

EO_LtJG_Tomari says:
@::watching the area and remaining hidden::

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#::wondering how the landing party is making out since there hasn't been a report in a while::

CMO_Uax says:
@:: looking around at the CO and EO ::

CEO_LtCmdr_Hunter says:
::hopes Shania is ok::

Host Chris_N says:
<XOF> ::nods solemnly::  TO: My apologies FOR that radiation.  Now why should we not listen to the Duranni?  They have been helping us.

TO_MacAllister says:
Xof: They may seem to have been helping you but we fear they may have a hidden agenda as it were. ::looks to the CEO:: CEO: Do you have the PADD?

Host Chris_N says:
<XOF> ::eyes the TO oddly then looks to the CEO::

CEO_LtCmdr_Hunter says:
::holds out the padd, feeling the a golf caddie::

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#::moves back around and looks over the flight controller’s shoulder::  FCO_Driver: Do we still appear to be out of site Mr. Driver?

CMO_Uax says:
@:: reaches down and scratches a lil part on her back where the bush is brushing up against her ::

Host Chris_N says:
#<FCO> ::nods::  OPS: Aye sir.  The Duranni appear to still be in orbit of Llewsor

TO_MacAllister says:
Xof: If you'd just take a look at the statistics on this PADD then you'll see what I'm talking about.

Host CO_Kyrron says:
@::watches Xof from the distance::

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#FCO: Very well....   Maintain Impulse at standby and look sharp.  ::swings around and sits in the COs chair::  God only knows what's going on from here on out....

CMO_Uax says:
@CO: I'm getting rather Itchy here.

Host Chris_N says:
<XOF> ::takes the device and looks at the information stored::  TO/CEO: Well all though I did not agree with my people's treatment of your people the last time, why should I show mistrust in the Duranni when they haven't shown us any signs otherwise.  Just as the Luna didn't in her last visit.

Host CO_Kyrron says:
@::nods at the CMO::

Host Chris_N says:
ACTION: The CMO notices a large red welt on her forearm

Host CO_Kyrron says:
@::motions for the CMO and EO to follow her at a distance::

Host CO_Kyrron says:
@::begins walking from the trees toward the group::

EO_LtJG_Tomari says:
@::follows the CO, maintaining a steady distance::

CEO_LtCmdr_Hunter says:
XOF: Well I am not sure what happen with the Luna, but let me ask you a question

Host Chris_N says:
<XOF> TO: At any rate, perhaps we can ask the Duranni.  They are due to arrive here soon.  I have a meeting with them in this field.

CMO_Uax says:
@ :: Looks down sees the welt and follows the CO and EO at a distance

Host Chris_N says:
<XOF> ::looks to the CEO::  CEO: Yes...

CEO_LtCmdr_Hunter says:
XOF: Can you afford to complete ignore what we telling you?  Surely there is no harm in listen and at least begin on guard

Host CO_Kyrron says:
@::overhears Xof::  EO:  See if you can get a warning out to the ship.

CMO_Uax says:
@:: stops keeping herself concealed as much as possible and treats the welt ::

Host Chris_N says:
<XOF> ::notices others approaching from the bushes and eyes them warily::  CEO: No I suppose I cannot afford that

Host CO_Kyrron says:
::stops a good distance away from Xof and nods in greeting::

TO_MacAllister says:
::turns to see who’s coming::

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#::gets up and walks over to the duty tactical officer:: TO_Winchester: Can we initiate a low bandwidth tactical scan of the location of the landing party so we can see what's going on without anyone detecting us?

Host Chris_N says:
<XOF> ::nods briefly at the CO::  CO: And you are?  ::looking at the Llewsorian clothing::

EO_LtJG_Tomari says:
@::nods to the CO and contacts the ship:: *COM*Tal-War:Tomari to Tal-War.

Host CO_Kyrron says:
Xof:  Captain Tria Kyrron of the USS Tal-War.  Forgive the disguise, but our last visit here didn't go well.

CMO_Uax says:
walks up beside the CO ::

Host Chris_N says:
#<TO> OPS: Hmm Sir...  That might be a tricky one.  I believe if I direct the scan finely enough with only using just sufficient enough power...  ::nods:: Yes sir, I believe it is possible.

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#::hearing the com, moves back to the COs chair::  *COM* Tomari: Tal-War.  Go ahead Tomari.

CEO_LtCmdr_Hunter says:
::wish some one had given him a playbook, and feels like he has been out touch, but then working in the bowels of the ship can do that to someone::

Host Chris_N says:
ACTION: Several Duranni beam to the surface weapons drawn at the various SF Personnel.

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#TO: Go for it.

CMO_Uax says:
:: spins around looking at the Duranni squarely in the eye.

Host CO_Kyrron says:
::pulls out her phaser and aims at a Duranni::

TO_MacAllister says:
::spins round drawing his weapon::

Host Chris_N says:
<Duranni CO> ::appears to be suffering from some form of Leprosy:: ALL: We picked up your communications to the ship.  What are you doing here?

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
*COM* Tomari: Lieutenant....  This is the Tal-War.....  Respond.

TO_MacAllister says:
::aims at one Duranni and draws his standby on a second::

Host CO_Kyrron says:
Duranni CO:  We're negotiating same as you.  How about we all lower our weapons?

EO_LtJG_Tomari says:
*COM*Tal-War: The Duranni are about to give the away team a surprise visit.

Host CO_Kyrron says:
::taps behind her ear activating the Sekloth communication device::

Host Chris_N says:
<Duranni CO>  ::eyes the CO warily and motions for the other four Duranni to do as the CO asked::

CMO_Uax says:
:: looks around and lowers her weapon ::

Host CO_Kyrron says:
::lowers her phaser::

Host Chris_N says:
<Duranni CO> CO: I am Commander Duvor of the Duranni ship Edlah.

TO_MacAllister says:
::keeps his phasers aimed and ready to fire until all the Duranni have lowered theirs then slowly lowers his::

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#::stands in front of the chair::  *COM* Tomari: Acknowledged.  We're standing by on transporters for emergency beam out....   Signal when ready.

CEO_LtCmdr_Hunter says:
::eyes Duranni::

Host CO_Kyrron says:
Duranni CO:  Captain Kyrron of the USS Tal-War.  We came to teach the Llewsorians how to harvest their Sleihren particles for energy.

Host Chris_N says:
@<Thisah>  ::overhearing the exchange on the planet through the CO's Sekloth Communicator::

Host CO_Kyrron says:
::briefly glances over at Xof::

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#FCO: Mr. Driver....   adjust geosyncronous orbit to focus on the landing party.

EO_LtJG_Tomari says:
*COM* Tal-War: Acknowledge, standby ::nods to the CO that the Tal-War is standing by::

Host Chris_N says:
<Cmdr Duvor> ::tenses as the CO mentions the Particle's by name::  CO: What are you talking about?  Those particles are VERY dangerous as we told Mr. Redlum here.  ::motioning to Xof::  We are removing them for the planet's safety

Host CO_Kyrron says:
Duvor:  We are not fools.  You want that Sleihren for weapons production.

Host Chris_N says:
<Xof> ::is a little confused at everything but steps back and watches quietly::

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#<FCO_Driver> OPS: Aye....  Adjusting orbit...  Coming to 184° Z minus 2000 kilometers....   Thrusters at station keeping.

TO_MacAllister says:
::keeps an eye on Xof::

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#::sits and opens intraship com::  *TR2* Bridge to Transporter Room 2.  Lock on to the away team and stand by.

CEO_LtCmdr_Hunter says:
::Listens to the exchange between the captains, and decides this argument is above his pay scale::

EO_LtJG_Tomari says:
::watches the captain closely for any signal to transport::

Host Chris_N says:
<Cmdr Duvor> ::steps up to the CO determined staring her right in the face::  CO: That is absurd.  ::talking to the CO but turning his attention to Xof:: You just want harm to come to these people, just as you do the Finotans.

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#<TR2> *Bridge* We have a lock...  Standing by....

Host CO_Kyrron says:
::stares straight back::  Duvor:  Those particles aren't dangerous.

Host CO_Kyrron says:
Duvor:  At least not until you make them into weapons

Host Chris_N says:
<Cmdr Duvor> CO: Then we'll let the Llewsorians decide.  ::eyeing the CO for her last comment::  Xof: What have they proven to you so far, and who has ACTUALLY been helping you with power?

CEO_LtCmdr_Hunter says:
::thinks chalk one up for the good guys::

Host CO_Kyrron says:
::looks at Xof pointedly::  Xof:  They intend to create weapons of mass destruction.  Please do the right thing.

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#FCO: Stand by on Impulse....  Once the landing party is onboard, set course 286 mark 17, Ahead warp 4.

Host Chris_N says:
<Xof> Self: Weapons of mass destruction...  ::looks over the tree range at his destroyed city and ponders::

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#<FCO_Driver> OPS: I assume that you want to do a full impulse fly by to pick up the landing party?  

Host CO_Kyrron says:
::looks at her team while Xof ponders::

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#FCO: That's right....  

CMO_Uax says:
:: looks to the CO :: CO: If I may..

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#::watches as the FCO nods and carries out his orders of preparation::

Host Chris_N says:
<Xof> ::steps up to the CMO::  CMO: You look like someone I can trust.  Tell me... truthfully.  Is what you are all saying true?

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#::sits back in the COs chair and watches the Tactical display that is now on screen::

Host CO_Kyrron says:
::looks at Stephanie in surprise::

CMO_Uax says:
CMO: Yes it so Xof, :: hands him a PADD with the information about the radiation poisoning ::

Host Chris_N says:
<Xof> ::takes the PADD:: CMO: So what?  Our planet has just been through a Nuclear War!

Host Chris_N says:
ACTION: One Duranni Officer rubs his badly deformed arm while another administers a hypo for some unknown decease.

Host CO_Kyrron says:
Xof:  If the Duranni try to take it by force, I'm not sure we can protect you, but we will try.

CMO_Uax says:
Xof: and where do you think the nuclear energy came from. those particles in your atmosphere

Host CO_Kyrron says:
::hopes someone is surreptitiously scanning these guys::

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#::re-opens the secure, low band channel::  *COM* EO: We're ready.....   There will be a 50 second delay between the retrieval order and actual transport.  We gotta allow for travel time from here to there.

CEO_LtCmdr_Hunter says:
::watches the exchange

Host Chris_N says:
<Xof> ::eyes the CMO wondering her point slightly::

Host Chris_N says:
ACTION: All Power on the Tal-War fails except for back-up life-support

EO_LtJG_Tomari says:
*COM* Tal-War: Acknowledged

CMO_Uax says:
Xof: If you scroll down in the PADD it explains how the particles in your atmosphere can be made into nuclear energy devices

TO_MacAllister says:
::looks to the CMO:: CMO: I may be able to explain.

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#<COMPUTER> All: Emergency Power Engaged..........

CMO_Uax says:
TO: Please

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#::looks around::  ALL: REPORT!

Host Chris_N says:
<Xof> ::scrolls down the PADD and reads::

Host CO_Kyrron says:
::glares at the Duranni CO::

Host Chris_N says:
<Cmdr Duvor> ::receives a communication from his ship and notes how this is proceeding::

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#::gets up and dashes over to the OPS station and runs a sensor sweep::

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#ALL: There's a beam from the polar region of the second planet being directed at us.  The jig is up. 

TO_MacAllister says:
Xof: In Luna History, we discovered a material called Plutonium, We soon discovered that we could use this material and harness it's 'power' to provide energy.

Host Chris_N says:
<Cmdr Duvor> All: If you will be excusing us, we have an emergency on our hands.  ::he and his Officers beam back to their ship::

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#::tries to re-establish communications with the landing party::

Host CO_Kyrron says:
CEO:  Update the ship.

TO_MacAllister says:
Xof: The energy was then harnessed in ways that were Safe and economical.

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#FCO: Get us to the landing party...  Best possible speed.....

TO_MacAllister says:
Xof: Until some bright spark discovered, either by accident or on purpose that it could also be used to make weapons which could cause destruction on the scale that you see here. ::motions around him::

Host Chris_N says:
<Xof> All: I think I shall take this to our Senate for further discussion.  I believe we may owe you a debt of gratitude

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#<TO_Driver> OPS: Internal sensors detect a sonic bandwidth transmission directed at the internal com system.....  

Host CO_Kyrron says:
Xof:  Will you accept some aid from us in the meantime?  Do you need medical supplies?

TO_MacAllister says:
Xof: We believe that this is exactly what is happening with the Sleihren and the Duranni.

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#::shudders::  TO Winchester: Transfer power from Emergency Life support and short out the com system.

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#<TO_Driver> OPS: Aye.

CEO_LtCmdr_Hunter says:
*bridge*: By advice the Duranni have return to there ship, they claimed some sort of emergency

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#<FCO_Driver> OPS: No power to the thrusters sir.....

Host Chris_N says:
<Xof> TO/CO: It would be most gracious of you to help us in whatever way you can.  Will you help us construct what we need to harness and convert these particles too?

TO_MacAllister says:
::looks to the CO::

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#::moves over to the engineering station:: Self: There has got to be some damn power somewhere......

Host CO_Kyrron says:
Xof:  Absolutely.  Our Chief Engineer will be at your disposal.

CMO_Uax says:
:: steps up :: CO: and I'd like to be of service with any medical supplies we can spare.

Host Chris_N says:
<Xof> ::smiles for the first time::  CO: thank you Captain.  If you'll excuse me?  ::holds up the PADD he was given::  I need to take this information to my people.

Host CO_Kyrron says:
::nods::  CMO:  Whatever we can spare.

CMO_Uax says:
CO: Understood.

Host CO_Kyrron says:
:::nods at Xof::

Host CO_Kyrron says:
::hopes Thisah is pleased::

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#::looks at the board full of dead relay readouts::

CEO_LtCmdr_Hunter says:
::waits for a response back and wonders if the captain is planning on leaving him here::

Host Chris_N says:
@<Thisah>::over the CO's Sekloth Device::  *CO* Captain.  I have something of urgency to speak to you about.

Host Chris_N says:
ACTION: Suddenly the Tal-War is engulfed in a red light, all onboard fall unconscious.

Host CO_Kyrron says:
*Thisah*:  I believe we're finished here for now.  Can you retrieve us?

CEO_LtCmdr_Hunter says:
Captain: I am not getting an answer back from the ship

Host CO_Kyrron says:
::looks at Hunter in alarm::

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#FCO: I'm going to the shuttle bay.  Prep a runabout I'm going to....   ::falls unconscious::

CMO_Uax says:
:: feels the concern in the captain :: CO: Maybe we should get back.

CEO_LtCmdr_Hunter says:
*Engineer*:status report?

Host Chris_N says:
@<Thisah> * CO* Captain, we have lost your ship on our sensors.

Host CO_Kyrron says:
::looks at Stephanie in alarm::  *Thisah*:  What?  They just disappeared?!

TO_MacAllister says:
::stays near the CO::

Host Chris_N says:
@<Thisah> *CO* We shall retrieve you as you wish.  ::initiates a transporter beam::

Host Chris_N says:
ACTION: The AT are all beamed back aboard the Chameleon class Sekloth vessel

Host CO_Kyrron says:
All:  We have to find our ship.

Host Chris_N says:
<Thisah> ::approaches the Team as they are beamed back::  AT: I am sorry we should have been keeping a closer eye on them.  ::looks sympathetic::

CMO_Uax says:
:: moves off getting herself ready for the task at hand.

TO_MacAllister says:
::holsters all his weapons and finds a seat::

Host CO_Kyrron says:
Thisah:  Is there any trace at all?  What was her last position?

Host Chris_N says:
<Thisah> ::steps over to a console::  AT: We picked up an energy signature similar to one used by Duranni for power interference on most vessels...

CEO_LtCmdr_Hunter says:
*Computer*:Status report

Host CO_Kyrron says:
::hopes her tactical and engineering people understand what Thisah is talking about, because she doesn’t::

Host Chris_N says:
<Thisah> AT: We also noted a possible tap into the internal comm systems using a high frequency output designed to put most humanoid life forms unconscious before an external hypnotic light was used to do the same.

TO_MacAllister says:
::steps over to a tactical console:: Thisha: May I?

Host CO_Kyrron says:
::looks over at the EO hoping he has a clue::

Host Chris_N says:
<Thisah> AT: Then the ship disappeared completely from sensors.  ::looks to the AT for their planned course of action::

CEO_LtCmdr_Hunter says:
::Waits for the computer to answer::

Host Chris_N says:
<Thisah> TO: May you?

OPS_Lt_DeRidder says:
#::lays on the deck and drools::

EO_LtJG_Tomari says:
Thisah: You say this has happened before?

CEO_LtCmdr_Hunter says:
CO:No answer from engineer or the bridge, I am trying the computer now

TO_MacAllister says:
Thisha: I'd like to try a few search algorithms of my own if I may.

Host CO_Kyrron says:
Thisah:  May I use your communication system to report the situation to DS21?

Host Chris_N says:
<Thisah> ::nods at the CO::  TO: You may

Host Chris_N says:
<Thisah> EO: We have knowledge of the Duranni and understand their technology yes

TO_MacAllister says:
::programs the sensors to scan for the unique residual warp signature of the Tal-War::
