CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
::on the bridge, scanning the Orion pirate vessel::
CIV_Cmdr_Idrani says:
::in the secret hidden dark lonely room away from everyone except one dead Gopher-look-alike (poor fellow)::
FCO_Cmdr_Foster says:
::Sitting in the Captain's chair in his absence::
XO_Cmdr_Telgar says:
@ :: standing in the cargobay ::
CEO_Ens_Silek says:
::sits at the engineering console ::
CTO_LtJG_Koval says:
:: sits at the tactical console ::
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
FCO: The shields on the Orion ship has dropped, attempting to get a lock on the XO, sir
CIV_Cmdr_Idrani says:
::moves around looking for clues::
XO_Cmdr_Telgar says:
@Klingon:  So, now what?
FCO_Cmdr_Foster says:
CSO: Good, see if you can get hold of that sadistic git that was on the screen while you're at it.

ACTION: As the Orion ship's shields fall, several hundred cylindrical objects about two meters long, are launched from the Orion ship.

CIV_Cmdr_Idrani says:
::Checks peoples hands... hmm... everyone was bluffing::
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
FCO: Scanning, sir... She might be on one of those cylinders
XO_Cmdr_Telgar says:
@ :: gets stuffed in a cylindrical object ::
CIV_Cmdr_Idrani says:
::walks over to the bulkhead and leans on it:: Aloud: Hello... Can anybody hear me? A-LO-HA!!
FCO_Cmdr_Foster says:
CSO/CTO: How many of those do you think we can grab?
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
FCO: They are escape pods, those cylinders and they contain a multitude of species'

ACTION: The CIV begins to feel a bit light headed from the gases coming from the dead body.

CIV_Cmdr_Idrani says:
::sniffs:: Aloud: What the... uh.....oh....
FCO_Cmdr_Foster says:
CSO: We're only looking for one.
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
FCO: If we reconfigure the deflector dish and use the tractor beam set as a wide beam we might be able to catch some. Do we have any of the fighter wing to dispatch to aid in the collection of the cylinders?
CEO_Ens_Silek says:
All: Logic would dictate that we bring them all in.... or attempt to. I can bring all the emergency transporters as well as the change the cargo transporters to human resolution to help in the attempt.
CIV_Cmdr_Idrani says:
::bangs the wall louder:: Aloud: HELLO! HELOO-OH! I'm in here with a dead body and it reeks! Get me OUT OF HERE!
FCO_Cmdr_Foster says:
CSO: Capital idea... ::turns to Tactical:: CTO: Lock on to that ship's propulsion systems in case this is just a divertion... then launch all fighter squadrons.
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
CEO: We could do that as well, Ensign. Do we have enough power to do that?
CTO_LtJG_Koval says:
FCO: Will do. :: pushes a few buttons his console ::
FCO_Cmdr_Foster says:
CSO: Work with Engineering and bring in as many pods as you can.

ACTION: There are signs that the Orion ship's are coming back online.

CEO_Ens_Silek says:
::nods:: CSO: It is part of all emergency procedures. ::turns on all the emergency transporters and calls to have them manned::
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
::thinks:: Self: Work? With HIM?
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
FCO: Aye, Commander. ::begins configuring the tractor beam::
CIV_Cmdr_Idrani says:
::gives up, steps back and takes out his phaser. Changes the setting and fires at the bulkhead to cut a hole out::
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
FCO: Tractor beam is ready, powering up now, sir
CTO_LtJG_Koval says:
:: stares at his console for a while, before realizing to say something :: All: Oh, uhh. Their shields are coming up.
CEO_Ens_Silek says:
*EO_Mackenzie*: Get someone manning the cargobay transporters!  Change the resolution for human transport and bring anyone you can get a lock on.
FCO_Cmdr_Foster says:
Self: Dammit! ::spins round:: CTO: Fire!
CTO_LtJG_Koval says:
FCO: Aye aye, cap'n! :: launches all torpedoes ::

ACTION: The CIV's attempt at cutting his way out are minimal at best, creating a nice black dot on the bulkhead but no hole.

EO_Mackenzie says:
 *CEO*: Aye Sir....we'll get them in Eh.
CIV_Cmdr_Idrani says:
Self: Hmm.. There has to be some one who thinks that black hole is art. ::goes and takes the dart board and hangs it over the burnt area::
SEC Hunter says:
::approaches the junction where the CIV disappeared:: Aloud: Hello?

ACTION: The Orion ship goes to warp and clear of the Tal-War's  range.

CIV_Cmdr_Idrani says:
::hears a voice:: Aloud: YEAH! Hi! Over here!
FCO_Cmdr_Foster says:
::looks at the screen:: All: Where'd they go?
CTO_LtJG_Koval says:
FCO: To warp?
XO_Cmdr_Telgar says:
@ :: still in an escape pod ::
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
FCO: Sir, I have gathered as many pods as I could.

ACTION: The torpedoes miss their target.

SEC Hunter says:
CIV: Hallloooooo ::bangs the wall:: Can you hear me?
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
::starts beaming cylinders onto the ship::

ACTION: The Tal-War's transporters begin retrieving escape pods.

FCO_Cmdr_Foster says:
CSO: Did we get the XO?
CIV_Cmdr_Idrani says:
::bangs the wall:: SEC: Hello, yes, get me the hell out of here...
XO_Cmdr_Telgar says:
@ Self:  Well, this sucks.
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
FCO: We managed to collect about 350 out of the 600 cylinders. Scanning the ones now for the XO
SEC Hunter says:
CIV: How did you get in there? ::starts feeling around for a control panel::
CIV_Cmdr_Idrani says:
SEC: Get me out and I'll tell you! There's some dampening field... maybe if you beam me in some transport enhancers...
FCO_Cmdr_Foster says:
CSO: Well?
XO_Cmdr_Telgar says:
:: gets out of her pod and looks around :: Self:  This is better.  :: walks through the corridors to the nearest lift ::  Computer:  Bridge.
SEC Hunter says:
CIV: What? I can't hear you... Barf you through the fruit basket?
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
FCO: Yes, sir. She appears to be on the move...
CIV_Cmdr_Idrani says:
SEC: Huh? Tofu from a what? Just get me out of here!
FCO_Cmdr_Foster says:
CSO: Drop a beacon here. ::turns to the front:: Duty FCO: Get after that ship!
SEC Hunter says:
CIV: Don't you DARE say anything about my uncle! He was a great man... How do I get you out of here?
CIV_Cmdr_Idrani says:
SEC: What does funk music have to do with anything!?
XO_Cmdr_Telgar says:
:: limps out of the lift as it opens at the bridge ::  All:  Report.
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
FCO: Aye, Commander ::drops a beacon with the Tal-War's transponder signature on::
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
::notices:: Aloud: Commander on the Brid-ge? ::tries not to stare at her appearance::
FCO_Cmdr_Foster says:
::turns round and sees Sharra limping:: XO: Sharra... ::walks over to her:: Are you alright?
XO_Cmdr_Telgar says:
FCO:  I've been better.
CIV_Cmdr_Idrani says:
SEC: Okay.. damp-en-ingGGG Fieeeeeeld...
CEO_Ens_Silek says:
::sniffs the air:: XO: We are attempting to retrieve all life pods Commander... obviously we chose one that was yours.
CEO_Ens_Silek says:
XO: We are attempting to get all of the rest.
SEC Hunter says:
CIV: Happening tonight? What? Hold on, I am looking for a panel or something
XO_Cmdr_Telgar says:
CEO: Good, keep working on it.
FCO_Cmdr_Foster says:
XO: I want you to go to sickbay, you're in no condition to be here at the moment.

ACTION: The bridge crew wrinkle their noses as Telgar walks by them.

XO_Cmdr_Telgar says:
:: looks around ::  FCO:  Where is Thalev?
CIV_Cmdr_Idrani says:
SEC: Dont make me hit you! I am not an animal or something!
CEO_Ens_Silek says:
FCO: I would not argue with her Sir... she looks.... angry.
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
::attempts to hold her breath as the XO walks past::
FCO_Cmdr_Foster says:
XO: Judging by his last known location, probably in Gopher's poker room... but I want you to get checked out.
XO_Cmdr_Telgar says:
FCO:  I'll go in a moment.
FCO_Cmdr_Foster says:
XO: Sharra...
SEC Hunter says:
CIV: THE-RE are NO PA-NELS
CIV_Cmdr_Idrani says:
SEC: SO DO SOMETHING ELSE... SHEEEESH-AH!
XO_Cmdr_Telgar says:
FCO:  I know where that is.  :: walks to a console and taps at it ::  There is a dampening field around it.

ACTION: A blue-green haze is now filling the closed room.

SEC Hunter says:
CIV: Stand BACK ::points his phaser at the wall and fires a wide beam, low powered shot::
FCO_Cmdr_Foster says:
XO: So he told me... if you ask me he's damn lucky to still be walking.
XO_Cmdr_Telgar says:
FCO:  I'm taking the dampening field down.  :: taps at the console ::

ACTION: Hunter's phaser makes a small hole through the first wall.

CIV_Cmdr_Idrani says:
SEC: What is a hand tack?!
FCO_Cmdr_Foster says:
XO: Right, then you're going to sickbay.
CIV_Cmdr_Idrani says:
::jumps back:: Aloud: Ooh stand baaack!
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
::thinks:: Self: And why did I not think to do that?
SEC Hunter says:
::curses::

ACTION: The dampening field is lowered.

XO_Cmdr_Telgar says:
FCO:  It's down.
XO_Cmdr_Telgar says:
:: scanning the area ::  FCO:  One Andorian life sign there.  :: smiles and winces ::

ACTION: The XO suddenly has a weak turn and collapses to the deck.

XO_Cmdr_Telgar says:
:: drops to the deck ::
CIV_Cmdr_Idrani says:
::waits patiently::
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
XO: I- ::curses:: FCO: I'll beam Idrani out... you...er...deal with her?
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
::locks onto the CIV biosign and beams him out the room to just outside near the Security team::

ACTION: The CIV is beamed to safety.

FCO_Cmdr_Foster says:
::picks Sharra up:: CSO: Beam us directly to sickbay, you have the bridge.
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
FCO: Aye sir. ::presses the relevant buttons::
CIV_Cmdr_Idrani says:
::Is beamed out:: SEC: There is a body in there, treat that room as a crime scene.
SEC Hunter says:
CIV: Nice to see you, sir. We'll take over from here

ACTION: The FCO and XO are beamed to sickbay.

CTO_LtJG_Koval says:
:: stands up ::
CTO_LtJG_Koval says:
All: Ahem.
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
CTO: Where are you going, Lieutenant?
FCO_Cmdr_Foster says:
::picks Sharra up and lays her on the bio-bed:: All: Where's the CMO???
CIV_Cmdr_Idrani says:
SEC: Isn’t that what I just told you?
SEC Hunter says:
CIV: Er, yes sir... Sorry, sir... we'll get on it right now, sir
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
::motions to her replacement and moves to the centre seat::
MO_Payne
:: exits the office :: FCO:  What is that smell???
CIV_Cmdr_Idrani says:
::pats him once on the shoulder:: SEC: Thanks. ::heads to the bridge::
CTO_LtJG_Koval says:
:: sits down again ::
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
CTO: Is there something wrong?
FCO_Cmdr_Foster says:
MO: That would be the XO... she's been badly beaten... we need to deal with that first.
CTO_LtJG_Koval says:
CSO: Just stretching myself, why?
CIV_Cmdr_Idrani says:
::walks onto the bridge:: CSO/CTO: Who has the bridge?
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
CTO: It was the way you were doing it that caused for concern
CTO_LtJG_Koval says:
CSO: I'm flattered by your concern.
CTO_LtJG_Koval says:
CSO: But I'm fine, really.
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
CIV: I do, Commander ::looks at him and smiles slightly:: And I am glad to see you are alright, Commander
MO_Payne says:
FCO:  OK.  Let's get those clothes off of her.
CIV_Cmdr_Idrani says:
CSO: Thanks Khethiwe. Where are all the command staff? Captain still having that little...er.. problem with the runs?

ACTION: There is a problem in the cargo bay with several of the rescued aliens.

CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
CIV: Yes, he does I think. The XO and FCO are in Sickbay, the XO is not well.
FCO_Cmdr_Foster says:
MO: Right. ::assists the MO::

ACTION: They are demanding to see the Captain and to be returned to their homes.

CIV_Cmdr_Idrani says:
CSO: Well, in that room, I found something of interest. A dead body.
CEO_Ens_Silek says:
::nods:: All: I would be too.
MO_Payne says:
:: motions to a couple of nurses ::  Nurses:  Get her cleaned up.  :; runs a tricorder over the XO while the biobed does it's diagnostics ::

ACTION: Shoving and pushing begins and raised voices are drowning out the security staff.

CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
CIV: A dead body! ::is surprised::
CIV_Cmdr_Idrani says:
CSO: There is more... apart from the putrid smell, it had a putrid appearance too - looked so similar to Gopher. Like a brother almost.
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
CTO: There appears to be a problem with some of the rescuees. Get down to the cargo bay
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
CIV: Commander, how good are you at customer relationships?
CTO_LtJG_Koval says:
CSO: Uh, what? I'll send someone to look at it.
FCO_Cmdr_Foster says:
MO: By the way she went down on the bridge I'm thinking she's got some internal bleeding.
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
::twitches slightly:: CTO: While I am the duty officer, I shall be addressed as sir. Lieutenant.
CTO_LtJG_Koval says:
CSO: Who assigned you, anyway?
CTO_LtJG_Koval says:
CSO: I am the highest ranking officer on the bridge.
MO_Payne says:
Self:  3 broken ribs, fractured ulna, multiple contusions and abrasions, perforated colon.  :: shakes his head ::
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
CTO: Commander Foster and rank is irrelevant.
CTO_LtJG_Koval says:
CSO: .. Since when?
MO_Payne says:
FCO:  You should go, we'll let you know when she is stabilized.
CIV_Cmdr_Idrani says:
CSO: First contact specialist requires proficiency in that.. why do you ask?
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
CTO: If you do not understand the protocol associated with assigning a new duty officer, please, by all means, take it up with the command staff. Until then, I suggest you send more security to the cargo bay before the civilians destroy this ship
MO_Payne says:
Nurses: Let's take care of that colon first to avoid septicemia.
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
CIV: We appear to have some unrest with our new arrivals from the escape pods. I think they would respond better to a Commander than a Ensign
FCO_Cmdr_Foster says:
MO: She's in your hands, I'm counting on you.
CTO_LtJG_Koval says:
*Security*: Security Team Alpha, report to Cargo Bay 3.
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
CIV: Just until the Captain gets there
MO_Payne says:
FCO:  Don't worry Commander, I've seen worse, she'll be fine.
CIV_Cmdr_Idrani says:
CSO: I'll head to the Cargo Bay. I'll keep you updated.
CSO_Ens_Amuz says:
CIV: Thank you, Commander ::settles back in the chair::
FCO_Cmdr_Foster says:
MO: She had better be... I want to know the moment she comes round... I'll be on the bridge.
CIV_Cmdr_Idrani says:
::heads off the bridge::

ACTION: A riot breaks out in the cargo bay, punches thrown and tempers flaring.
