CEO_Cmdr_Jarek says:
::Already on the shuttle going over her specs::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::finishes up gathering the last few things and cramming them into his bag:: *XO*: How's it going up there Cmdr?  Just about ready to transfer her?

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
::is in his office on deck 9 reading over reports on the diplomat he is supposed to see::

Host Adm_Wiggins says:
ACTION:  A voice comes over the loudspeakers

TO_Ens_Anderson says:
::in his quarters disassembling a Type III phaser rifle and placing the pieces into his duffle bag::

CSO_LtCmdr_Paith says:
::Is in the CNS' office as well, looking over the details of this ambassador::

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
CSO: Find anything interesting, Ma'am?

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::slips the double sword holster in the back of the shuttle with a phaser rifle, and climbs to a chair::

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::walking down a corridor, his attention on his PADD: *CO*: The ship is dry-docked and in the hands of the Starbase now, Sir.

CSO_LtCmdr_Paith says:
CNS: The usual diplomat profile, eh?

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
*XO*: Acknowledged Number One...I'll meet you in the Shuttlebay

Host Adm_Wiggins says:
<Voice> Triton will be decompressed in 1 minute for retro fitting of new Pod assembly

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::has to hurry now; he thought he had more time::

CEO_Cmdr_Jarek says:
::In the shuttle engine hold trying to increase the injector size to get a bit more power out of her::

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
CSO: Just like every other one I have read, ma'am. ::eyes focused on PADD::

TO_Ens_Anderson says:
::exits his quarters and moves down the corridors of the Starbase and into the shuttlebay, his bag thrown over his shoulders::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
*ALL*: Report in please...no one should be on the Triton

Host Adm_Wiggins says:
<Voice> ALL:  30 seconds

CEO_Cmdr_Jarek says:
*CO*: Already on the Shuttle Sir

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::Hustles down to the docking port and makes his way through::

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
::does a sight-to-sight transport with the CSO to the shuttle::

FCO_Lt_Ray says:
::at the Shuttle bay::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::waits to make sure everyone is off the ship before heading to the Shuttle Bay::

CSO_LtCmdr_Paith says:
::Is a little surprised to have been transported without warning::

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::arrives at the shuttle bay, slightly behind Lieutenant Ray:: FCO: Ever pilot one of these new Type-11s yet, Lieutenant?

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
CSO: Sorry about that Commander. But we only had 30 seconds and it wouldn't have been enough time. ::faint smile::

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::pats his lower leg to make sure his long knife is in its holster, then climbs to a chair with controls:: *CO*: Sir. I am in the shuttle. I am sitting at controls.

Host Adm_Wiggins says:
::sees Commander Paith:: CSO:  Lerina is that you?

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::makes his way to the shuttle and stands on the entry ramp::  CTO: Very good Mr. Nomad

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::sees his XO and FCO arrive:: XO/FCO: Ready for a relaxing trip?

TO_Ens_Anderson says:
::walks over to the Captain::  CO: Reporting as ordered Captain!  ::stops short of a salute::

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
::looks around the shuttle bay eyeing everything::

FCO_Lt_Ray says:
XO: The type-9 is the highest I ever got to pilot.

CSO_LtCmdr_Paith says:
CNS: You just enjoyed surprising me! ::smiles, hearing her name, albeit mispronounced, turns to the source.:: Adm: Leriana, Sir, and yes....

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
TO: Hello Brian  ::winks::

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
::smiles at the CSO's comment and then walks over near the CO and everyone else; noticing the TO almost saluted him::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
TO: Relax kiddo, don't worry about things so much

TO_Ens_Anderson says:
CO: Evening Uncle Thorne  ::smiles and boards the shuttle::

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
::nods to the CO:: CO: Hello, Captain.

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
CO: Sir. I brought two swords and a phaser rifle. Nothing too...suspicious. 

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::tries to look relaxed:: FCO: I'm sure you'll have fun with it.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CNS: Hello Lt

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::looks down at uniform:: CO: Well... not including the phaser in my holster and the long knife in my leg holster.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CTO: I'm glad you only brought two Lt  ::smiling and winking::

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::wanders off towards the exterior of the shuttle, wanting to catch a glimpse of the micro-torpedo launchers::

Host Adm_Wiggins says:
::sees Commander Paith:: CSO:  Lerina is that you?

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
CTO: At least we know you will be prepared for anything, Lt.

FCO_Lt_Ray says:
::enters shuttle and does a routine checkup::

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::grins at the CNS:: CNS: You bet I am. If a cow came flying at us at warp... I'd be more than ready to blast that son of a back to the farm.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::sees Cmdr Everitt doing a walk around and waits for him in the hatchway::

TO_Ens_Anderson says:
::walks aboard the shuttle and places his bag by his feet and warms up the tactical systems and takes a look at what he's got to work with::

CSO_LtCmdr_Paith says:
::Hearing her name, albeit mispronounced, turns to the source.:: Adm: Leriana, Sir, and yes....

Host Adm_Wiggins says:
::sees Captain Knight:: CO:  over Captain

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::begins to board the shuttle, and sees the Captain and grins:: CO: Permission to come aboard, Sir?

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO: Permission granted Cmdr

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
::slight laugh:: CTO: Good thing. ::walks over to the shuttle and enters it. Then walks to the replicator and replicates a water and takes a sip::

Host Adm_Wiggins says:
CSO:  it's been ages little one; you made Chief Medical Officer yet?

CSO_LtCmdr_Paith says:
::Eyes this Admiral, trying to recall where she knows him from:: Adm: Yes... and then I switched to chief of science recently...

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::smiles and looks around inside, the large craft nearing capacity::

Host Adm_Wiggins says:
CO:  Captain Knight, a word please....

FCO_Lt_Ray says:
CO: Everything checks out

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
CO: Sir. A quick question. The seating arrangement. Who will be using controls besides our navigations officer? I was certain I would for tactical. However, I was wondering if you or the Commander would be taking that spot.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
Adm:  Aye Sir  ::walks towards the Admiral::

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
::looks over at the XO:: XO: Roomy shuttle, isn't it Commander?

Host Adm_Wiggins says:
CSO:  such a pity to lose those delicate hands to science, you were a great student

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
Adm_Wiggins: Yes Sir?  ::waits till he's finished talking to Leriana::

Host Adm_Wiggins says:
CO:  I'll be handling your briefing since Admiral McDaniels is away

TO_Ens_Anderson says:
::satisfied with the specs on the armaments for the shuttle he picks up his bag and finds a passenger seat in the back::

CSO_LtCmdr_Paith says:
Adm: I wanted to get a bit more bridge time, Sir.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
Adm_Wiggins: Understood Sir

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::looks over, having not really spoke with the Lieutenant before:: CNS: Ah... yes, but on a long trip like this, they'll surely all want a station.

Host Adm_Wiggins says:
CSO:  was nice seeing you again little one

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
XO: You’re probably right, Commander, of course I am just use to a chair.

Host Adm_Wiggins says:
CO:  Captain Knight, let me introduce to you Vice Admiral Sara Love

CSO_LtCmdr_Paith says:
Adm: I will be on the shuttle Sir; I do believe... you're not getting rid of me that quickly...

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::salutes:: Adm_Love: Ma'am

Adm_Love says:
::stands beside Admiral Wiggins holding her small bag nervously in her left hand:: CO: Captain, a pleasure. ::smiles::

Host Adm_Wiggins says:
CO:  you are to escort her to Risa post haste

TO_Ens_Anderson says:
::puts his feet up upon a console and drifts slowly to sleep, while the shuttle is preparing to launch::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
Adm_Wiggins: Yes Sir, our pleasure

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
::walks back out of the shuttle over to the CO and the Adm and goes to attention when he sees two of them::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CTO: You've got it figured out pretty well Mr. Nomad; let's leave it this way

Adm_Love says:
CO: At ease Captain, we don't want you to break anything now do we?

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::grins:: Adm_Love: Of course not Admiral

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::Gestures to the shuttle:: Adm_Love: After you Ma'am

Adm_Love says:
::turns to Wiggins:: Adm: Admiral, I appreciate you arranging this for me.

Host Adm_Wiggins says:
CO:  Good'ay Captain

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
::enters the shuttle again and finds a seat and sits down::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
Adm_Wiggins:  Good day to you too Sir

Host Adm_Wiggins says:
Love:  see ya when you get back Sara ::gives her a peck on the cheek

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::speaks up, making sure to get everyone's attention:: ALL: Ray, you have the helm.  Nomad, tactical.  Paith, you're on sensors.  And Jarek, you monitor the craft's systems.  Everyone else, sit back and enjoy the trip.

TO_Ens_Anderson says:
::begins to dream of the field tactical training back at the academy...::

Adm_Love says:
::smiles and blushes slightly then walks past the Captain and enters the shuttle::

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::turns to the Captain:: CO: Should we get underway?

CEO_Cmdr_Jarek says:
::nods::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::enters behind the Admiral:: XO: Let's get going Cmdr

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
ALL: May I have your attention?  This is Vice Admiral Love and she's going to Risa with us.  Let's get cracking

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::adjusts himself so he's comfortable in the chair, and starts setting up his console for tactical::

CSO_LtCmdr_Paith says:
::takes sensors on shuttle::

Adm_Love says:
::finds a seat near the rear of the shuttle and stows her bag under the seat before sitting::

TO_Ens_Anderson says:
::subconsciously he hears the XO and acknowledges the order by staying where he is....his hand has never left the handle of his bag::

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
Love: Good to have you Admiral. ::smiles::

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::nods towards the Admiral::

CEO_Cmdr_Jarek says:
::Looks around and eyes the Admiral::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::walks to an empty seat and stows his bag, then sits back and relaxes for the first time in a long time::

FCO_Lt_Ray says:
*SB 16 control*: This is shuttlecraft. Permission to leave

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::steps forward:: CEO: Is the shuttle ready for departure?

Adm_Love says:
CNS: Thank you Lt.

CEO_Cmdr_Jarek says:
XO: It is Sir

CEO_Cmdr_Jarek says:
::powers up the engines::

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::coughs:: FCO: When you're ready, take us out.

Host Adm_Wiggins says:
<SB16>: Shuttlecraft Reese you are clear for departure

TO_Ens_Anderson says:
::rustles around in his seat until he finds a comfortable position and falls to sleep once more::

CEO_Cmdr_Jarek says:
FCO: All yours FCO

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::looks back:: Adm: You're looking lovely today Admiral. I like what you've done with your hair.

Adm_Love says:
::smiles but raises an eyebrow at the CTO::

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::suddenly feels a slap inside his brain... apparently his superego::

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
::takes out a PADD and starts to read it::

FCO_Lt_Ray says:
::powers up engines, and heads out of station at 1/3 impulse::

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::sits down next to the TO, hoping to catch him before he falls asleep:: TO: Ensign?

CEO_Cmdr_Jarek says:
::Looks at the Admiral and raises his left Eyebrow::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::turns around and asks the Admiral if she was comfortable enough::

Adm_Love says:
::wonders if she should buckle her seatbelt as she looks at the FCO::

FCO_Lt_Ray says:
CO: going to warp 4

TO_Ens_Anderson says:
::wakes up instantly at the sound of his name and sits up straight to see the XO in front of him::  XO: Commander...how can I help you Sir?

Adm_Love says:
CO: Yes indeed Captain, quite comfortable.

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
::walks to the replicator:: All: Anyone want anything?

Host Adm_Wiggins says:
ACTION:  the shuttle eases out of the massive Starbase then heads off at warp 4

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::hears Nomad and rolls his eyes:: Adm_Love: Good Ma'am

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CNS: I'll take a large ice tea Lt.

FCO_Lt_Ray says:
CO: approximate time is 8 hours

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
FCO: Understood Lt.  Let's make this a nice, quiet trip ok?

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::in a hushed voice:: TO: I have a special assignment for you.  You are to be the Admiral's shadow during the period of this escort.  Do not let her out of your sight.  Do you understand?

FCO_Lt_Ray says:
CNS: I could use some coffee, cream, and extra sweet

FCO_Lt_Ray says:
CO: as always

Adm_Love says:
::leans forward and taps the Captain on the shoulder:: CO: It had better be Captain. I can't afford to be late for this.

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::eyes focus on his console, keeping an eye on tactical::

TO_Ens_Anderson says:
XO: Of course Sir...consider it done!  ::notices a blinking light on one of the console across from where he is sitting:: CO: Excuse me Sir...there is a urgent message coming in from a shuttlecraft DreamCatcher

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
Adm_Love: We'll do everything we can Ma'am.  Don't worry my crew is the best

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
::looks at the replicator and tells it to make a large ice tea, a lemonade, and a coffee, with cream, and extra sweet and then hands the CO  and  FCO their drinks.::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
TO: Put it on speakers Ensign

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::takes his drink but doesn't worry about it for now:: CNS: Thanks Lt

TO_Ens_Anderson says:
::taps a button:: CO: Done Sir...it's on speakers  ::turns back to the XO:: XO: Sorry about that Sir...I'll won't let you down.  The Admiral will not leave my site

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
CO: No problem, Sir. ::sits down at a seat and listens for the message::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
TO: Good job.   ::wonders just what is so important::

Host Adm_Wiggins says:
ACTION:  Adm_McDaniels’ face appears on a small display screen

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
COMM: DreamCatcher: ::Sees McDaniels:: Adm: Sir, is there trouble?

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
::looks at the Admiral McDaniels wondering why he is there::

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::steps up to the front again:: FCO: Lieutenant, report.

Host Adm_Wiggins says:
COMM: Reese:  Knight, increase your speed to warp 6

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
COMM: DreamCatcher: Yes Sir.  ::nods to FCO:: May I ask what's going on Sir?

FCO_Lt_Ray says:
XO: we are receiving a priority message

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO: Increase our speed to Warp 6 Cmdr

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
::looks over at the XO who seems to be very up to things and then listens back to the McDaniels::

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
FCO: Warp 6 Lieutenant.  Put the comm onscreen.

FCO_Lt_Ray says:
CO: increasing to warp 6

Adm_Love says:
::smiles at the sight of Joshua on the screen::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::looks over at Admiral Love::  Adm; I'm sure everything's okay Ma'am

Host Adm_Wiggins says:
COMM: Reese:  just get her there ASAP, and no stopping for any reason

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
COMM: DreamCatcher: Aye Sir.  No stopping for anything, understood

Host Adm_Wiggins says:
COMM: Reese: consider this a Priority One mission

TO_Ens_Anderson says:
::moves back over to his original seat and manages a glimpse of Admiral Love before he looks away and pretends to fall back to sleep::

Adm_Love says:
CO: I'm sure it is Captain Knight.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
COMM: DreamCatcher: Priority One, yes Sir!  ::tries to read something else in the Admiral's eyes::

CEO_Cmdr_Jarek says:
::Walks over to the XO and whispers:: XO: I have increased the injector size Sir we can get warp 6.8 for 2 hours if needed...

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::curious when the comm will get on screen::

Host Adm_Wiggins says:
CO: DreamCatcher out

CSO_LtCmdr_Paith says:
::Keeps an eye out on the sensors::

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::slaps face... self "It's right there."::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CNS: Counselor, what did you pick up from Admiral McDaniels?

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
::looks at the CO:: CO: Apprehension, Sir.

Adm_Love says:
::sits back and tries to relax::

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::looks at the Captain:: CO: Sir... could I speak with you for a moment?

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::Self: What in the world?:: CNS: Apprehension about what?

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CTO: Of course Lt. Just one minute ok?

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::looks back Jarek, trying to hold back an amused grin:: CEO: Leave the injectors at nominal.  I'll consider it an option if needed.  Thank you, Commander.

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::nods:: CO: Sure Sir.

Adm_Love says:
::can overhear the Captain and counselor speaking and just smiles::

CEO_Cmdr_Jarek says:
XO: Agreed

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
Adm: That's a lovely fragrance you're wearing Admiral. Curious, what is it?

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CNS: Think about it for a minute Lt.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CTO: Okay Lt. I'm all ears ::smiling::

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
CO: I could not single out what it was Sir. His mind had too many thoughts going at once.

TO_Ens_Anderson says:
::puts his hands behind his head and stretches out his legs and takes another quick look at the Admiral before closes his eyes::

CEO_Cmdr_Jarek says:
::Looks at the CTO and shakes his head::

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
FCO: Lieutenant report; course, speed and ETA.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CNS: Thank you Mr. Lammel

FCO_Lt_Ray says:
XO: we are at warp 6, and will arrive in 3 hours

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::uncertain if the Admiral is going to respond, he whispers to the CO... very quietly:: CO: Sir. Considering this is a Priority One mission. Why doesn't a larger, faster ship escort the Admiral?

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
CO: My pleasure, Sir.

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::distractedly looks over at Nomad, making sure he doesn't pursue the Admiral::

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
::listens to the CO and CTO..::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CTO: ::just as quietly:: I'm assuming that whatever it is, they're thinking a smaller ship will not draw as much notice.  As of now this ship is at Red Alert...but a quiet Red Alert

CEO_Cmdr_Jarek says:
::Turns back to his console and checks the engines::

Adm_Love says:
::ignores the CTO for the moment thinking he is rather forward::

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::stating the obvious, hopefully making his point:: FCO: Ah... and our course would be Risa, Lieutenant?

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO: Cmdr, may I have a word please?

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::sets the ship to a quiet Red Alert::

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::steps closer to Nomad:: CTO: Keep your attention on your post, Lieutenant.

FCO_Lt_Ray says:
XO: that is correct

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::takes a small breath, and turns to the Captain:: CO: Yes, Captain?

FCO_Lt_Ray says:
CO: a Yellow Alert might draw less attention

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO: Cmdr, this mission is now a Priority One mission, and I'm not about to get surprised by anything while we’re in a Type 11 shuttle...do you concur??

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
FCO: I'll keep that under advisement Lt

Adm_Love says:
:;notices the sudden activity up at the front of the shuttle:: CO: Captain, is there a problem up there? ::points to the front::

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
::listens to the CO and XO::

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
CO: Agreed, a shuttle is no match in any aspect.  Why have we gone to Red Alert?

Adm_Love says:
::sits straight up at hearing the XO:: XO: Commander, did you say Red Alert?

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO: Cmdr, I am not going to get caught with weapons and shields down...I want us at Red Alert

FCO_Lt_Ray says:
CO: weapons powered would definitely

TO_Ens_Anderson says:
::listens to the ongoing conversations, especially that of the Admiral's::

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
::whispers:: XO: Please say comments quieter, I do not want the Adm stressed.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
Adm_Love: Ma'am, we've been ordered to consider this a Priority One mission and to get you there as quickly as possible.  I'm just trying to make sure we do that

CEO_Cmdr_Jarek says:
::Listens to the conversations and shakes his head::

FCO_Lt_Ray says:
CO: a docking station on Risa is transmitting coordinated for landing

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::begins to object, but stops before getting a word out:: CO: Aye, Sir.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO: Cmdr, be honest with me.  You obviously disagree

Adm_Love says:
CO: Don't you think Red Alert is a bit drastic? There are no reports of trouble in this sector. I had that checked out before these arrangements were made.

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
::watches the CO and XO and can't help it since he is sitting next to the CO::

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::remembers that the Captain came from a tactical background, and looks at him closely:: CO: Have we been given any details or indication of hostility?

FCO_Lt_Ray says:
CO: coordinates are out of the way station

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO: I hadn’t seen anything Cmdr.  Obviously I made a mistake, take us to Yellow Alert, but keep the weapons and shields on standby

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::digs into his personal sack... and takes out a donut with chocolate filling and grape jelly on it::

Host Adm_Wiggins says:
ACTION:  the Triton is on approach to Risa

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
CO/XO: Apparently how Admiral McDaniel's was acting it seems as if he is hiding something. So it seems wise to be ready for anything.
.
Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CNS: Apparently

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::takes the Captain's response as a "no", and is somewhat surprised by his submission, looking at him almost curiously:: CO: Ah.. Aye, Sir.

Host Adm_McDaniels says:
ACTION:  the jelly from the donut squirts out hitting the console, and some lands on Admiral Love

FCO_Lt_Ray says:
CO: approaching orbit, going to impulse.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
FCO: Very well Mr. Ray, notify Risa

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::puts the donut back in the sack:: 

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::steps back towards the front of the ship, just to see some sort of food land on the Admiral:: CTO: Lieutenant!

Adm_Love says:
::jumps slightly:: All: What is this! ::glares over at the source of the jelly::

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::looks at the jelly:: Self: I'm curious where that came from. ::blinks::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::sits back and decides that his definition of Priority One and the rest of the crews are vastly different::

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::looks at the Admiral nervously:: ADM: My apologies.

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
::looks over at the CTO but then decides to ignore it since it is not a big deal::

TO_Ens_Anderson says:
::hears the squirting of some kind of liquid and various screams from the XO and Admiral...he immediately opens his eyes and looks around to see what the problem is::

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
CNS: Counselor, help the Admiral with her clothing.

CSO_LtCmdr_Paith says:
::Looks back at the source of the sudden noise::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::gives the CTO a dirty look and says nothing::

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::licks the jelly off the console, leaving no evidence of his actions::

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::rubs his head:: CTO: Lieutenant, go to Yellow Alert.  Be ready with weapons at a moments notice.

Adm_Love says:
::wipes the jelly off her uniform:: XO: None necessary Commander. ::continues to stare at the CTO in disgust::

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
::eyes the XO wondering why he is ordering him to help with clothing...he thinks to himself "I am a Counselor not a maid" and walks over to the Adm:: Adm: Would you like a new change of clothes, Admiral?

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
Adm: I'm sorry Ma’am; I'll make sure he learns how to behave around an Admiral

FCO_Lt_Ray says:
COMM: Risa: this is shuttle Reese, permission to land?

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::curious what the looks are about:: XO: Sir, yes Sir! Yellow alert Sir! Aye Sir! ::goes to Yellow Alert::

TO_Ens_Anderson says:
::grins and moves back to his relaxing position that he was once in::

CSO_LtCmdr_Paith says:
::Looks back at her console as it blinks for her attention:: XO/CO: Picking up the shuttle Dreamcatcher at an out of the way landing platform...

Adm_Love says:
CNS: I'm fine Counselor. No damage done.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CSO: She's here already?  Are there any other vessels around her?

Adm_Love says:
CO: You do that Captain or I will.

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
Love: Understood, Ma'am. ::walks back to his seat and takes a seat::

CSO_LtCmdr_Paith says:
CO: Negative, Sir.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
Adm_Love: Yes Ma'am

CSO_LtCmdr_Paith says:
CO: There are, however, a few Federation ships in orbit...

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO: Let's find out what's going on down there

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
CSO: Commander, is there any stellar phenomena within 15 minutes at warp 6 that could hide a vessel our size?

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CSO: Of what type Cmdr?

FCO_Lt_Ray says:
CO: there is no answer

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
::looks around the shuttle listening now to the CSO::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
FCO: Try again Lt

CSO_LtCmdr_Paith says:
CO: They appear to be Galaxy, Akira, and Steamrunner classes, Sir.

FCO_Lt_Ray says:
CO: still no answer

Adm_Love says:
::rolls the ring on her finger around nervously:: CO: Captain, time until we land?

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::whistles:: Self: That's a lot of firepower

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
Adm_Love: We're not getting an answer from Risa Ma’am; I don't want to set down into a trap

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
CO: I have a hunch that Starfleet may be expecting some type of resistance, Sir.

CSO_LtCmdr_Paith says:
XO: And no stellar phenomena in which to hide our shuttle, either.

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::where he once admired the Admiral, now he questions her sense of humor::

Host Adm_McDaniels says:
Comm: Reese:  Land near the shuttle, Reese

Adm_Love says:
CO: What do you mean no comm?

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::more than sure Captain Thorpe would laugh if he got jelly on his uniform::

FCO_Lt_Ray says:
*CEO*: check the transmitter, see if something’s wrong

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
Adm: They weren't answering us Ma'am, until now that is

CEO_Cmdr_Jarek says:
FCO: Sure, checking

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
CO: Sir. If they're expecting resistance... then I have a feeling you'll be needing that aserphay that I oughtbray..

FCO_Lt_Ray says:
CO Sir, we are approaching the coordinates

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO: ::quietly:: Something isn't right here

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
::looks at the CO:: CO: I suggest we take precautions, Sir.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
FCO: Acknowledged, take us in slowly, but be ready to emergency boost out of here if we need to

Adm_Love says:
::is becoming visibly nervous now and squirms in her seat::

Host Adm_McDaniels says:
ACTION:  the shuttle Reese lands softly next to the Shuttle DreamCatcher

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
Love: Is everything all right Admiral?

Adm_Love says:
CNS: Just a bit nervous Lt. ::smiles::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO: Take Lt Nomad and do a Security sweep

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
CO: Of what, Sir?

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
Love: I see, anything you would like to share, Admiral?

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO: Of the surrounding area...make sure it's safe for us to let the Admiral disembark

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
CO: Of course, Sir.

Adm_Love says:
CNS: That will not be necessary. It's just a few butterflies.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO: Thank you Cmdr

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
Love: Understood, ma'am.

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::looks towards Anderson, making sure his attention is still on the Admiral::

Host Adm_McDaniels says:
ACTION:  Several armed Tactical Officers surround the Shuttle Reese

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::Self: What the?::

TO_Ens_Anderson says:
::feels the shuttle land and stands up with his bag and moves slightly closer to the Admiral as she will be departing soon::

Adm_Love says:
::reaches for her bag and waits::

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::nods to the Captain and Commander, and stands up from console:: CO: Think I might get within a meter of them? ::uncertain if he should take his swords::

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
::takes a phaser and tricorder from a storage unit and puts them on his uniform::

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
CTO: Shields.

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
FCO: Ready engines.

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
CEO: Seal the hatch.

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
TO: Ensign, could you please stay close to the Admiral for the moment.

FCO_Lt_Ray says:
XO: done already

Adm_Love says:
CO: Captain, all this is not needed. Open the hatch please...now!

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::slaps the console, and shuttle’s shields come online:: XO: Sir. Shields are online Sir.

CEO_Cmdr_Jarek says:
XO: Sealed

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
Adm: Ma'am, are you sure?

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
ADM: Are you certain you know these armed individuals?

Adm_Love says:
::stands and moves to the door:: CO: Are you questioning me Captain?

CSO_LtCmdr_Paith says:
XO: They are Starfleet, Sir...all of them...

Adm_Love says:
CO: Open the hatch NOW!

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::looks at the Captain, waiting on his decision for this one::

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::whispers:: CO: Captain, I wonder if this is personal. Her judgment could be impaired. Maybe we should ask the Counselor.

TO_Ens_Anderson says:
CNS: Sir...the Admiral is completely safe at the moment, I am under orders to protect the Admiral and she will be to the best of my abilities

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
Adm: I was told to treat this as a Priority One...::hears the Admiral:: Adm: I will when I'm sure it's safe Ma'am

Adm_Love says:
CO: Captain, I am your Priority One...now open that door! That's an order!

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
CTO: Have any of the individuals attempted to hail us?

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO: We make sure this is legitimate Cmdr.   Adm: Ma'am, you can throw me in the brig if you want but I'm not opening that door until I know what's going on

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::looks at the console:: XO: Sir. I don't believe so...Sir.

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
::closes his eyes to see what he can sense from Love:: Love: Admiral, we have to make sure it is safe first. That is protocol.

Host Adm_McDaniels says:
ACTION:  Admiral McDaniels walks out onto the platform

Adm_Love says:
All: Gentlemen open that hatch now or there will be hell to pay!

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::sees Adm McDaniels and relaxes::  Adm: Yes Ma'am  ::nods to the XO::

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
::eyes widen at Love's comment::

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::scratches head:: Self: Hell to pay? How much is hell worth in gold pressed latinuum?

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
CEO: Open the hatch, lower shields.

Host Adm_McDaniels says:
::waits back from the latch so it can open::

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
Adm: Admiral... under my known definition of hell. It is not used for economic purposes. How do you define it?

CEO_Cmdr_Jarek says:
XO: Done Sir

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::knows he's going to get raked over he coals but he did his duty:: Adm_Love: Ma'am I'm sorry but I had a job to do

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CTO: Enough Lt.

Host Adm_McDaniels says:
ACTION:  the Latch slowly lowers

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::walks up to the Admiral:: ADM: I apologize, you know we only have your safety in mind.  Is our escort duty officially over?

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
::looks at the CTO and notes he needs to have a session with him::

Adm_Love says:
::ignores the Captain and steps up and pushes out the hatch then drops her bag:: Adm: Joshua! ::runs down the ramp::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::still isn't totally sure this is totally safe and keeps an eye out for anything strange::

TO_Ens_Anderson says:
::throws his bag over his shoulders and stands behind Admiral Love and moves behind her as she exits the shuttle::

Host Adm_McDaniels says:
::holds arms out::  Love:  Sara....

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::seriously thinks all of this is quite preposterous::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::shrugs his shoulders and slowly walks down the ramp::

Adm_Love says:
::falls into Joshua's arms:: Adm: I've missed you so very much.

Host Adm_McDaniels says:
::looks at Love:  Love:  what's that on your uniform???

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::waits for the Admiral's to begin their yelling at him and doesn't really care...he did his job::

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::whispers:: CO: Captain. How could he declare this Priority One? I have walks from the transporter room to my quarters more menacing than this. ::thinks:: Mislabeling of missions is quite the offense.

TO_Ens_Anderson says:
::finds it uncomfortable to watch the two Admiral's express this much emotion in front of junior officers::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::whispers back:: CTO: I don't know Lt, but I'm sure we've been played with once again

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::wonders if he'll get an answer, and steps out of the shuttle with the Captain::

Adm_Love says:
Adm: Jelly filling. ::looks down::

Host Adm_McDaniels says:
CO:  Knight, is there something I need to be made aware of?

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
::observes everything::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::looks over at Cmdr Everitt and just shakes his head::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
Adm_McDaniels: No Sir, my officer will be taken care of promptly

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::smiles back:: CO: We'll still need an official word before our escort duty is over.

Adm_Love says:
::tugs at Joshua's arm and nods:: Adm: Let it go Joshua.

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::walks to McDaniels:: Adm: I take full responsibility Admiral. Though these replicators should be modified to have less filling in jelly filled donuts.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO: I do believe you're correct, Cmdr.  Let's see what it is shall we?

Host Adm_McDaniels says:
CO:  you see to it Captain, or I'll see to it through you

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
Adm_McDaniels: Sir, you've never once had reason to doubt my command, and I'm not about to start now.  Is our duty officially over with, Sir?

Host Adm_McDaniels says:
Love: you are right...CO:  No, Captain

Host Adm_McDaniels says:
CO:  I've arranged for the Triton crew to stay at the villa I’ve reserved

TO_Ens_Anderson says:
::hears Admiral McDaniels and straightens up a bit and continues to stand behind Admiral Love::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
Adm_McDaniels: That sounds fantastic Sir; thank you

CNS_LtJG_Lammel says:
::listens to everyone::

CTO_Lt_Nomad says:
::thinks this sucks... and refrains from taking out his swords and acting on "Id"stincts::

CSO_LtCmdr_Paith says:
::Just watching the whole thing play out...::

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::frowns at the answer of "no" from Admiral McDaniels::

Adm_Love says:
::smiles:: Adm: I need to see you Joshua...now! ::motions to the door of the shuttlebay::

Host Adm_McDaniels says:
CO:  I can't have you missing the festivities

Host Adm_McDaniels says:
