Host ^SM_Pam  (Actd.mid)

Host ^SM_Pam says:
Lambda Hydrae, deep inside the Romulan Neutral Zone hides much more than the crew of the Triton knows. Captain Knight has disobeyed a direct order from Starfleet Command and taken his ship across the border in pursuit of an ion trail they believe will lead them to discover the missing Vice Admiral Sheridan and perhaps the missing crew of the cadet

Host ^SM_Pam says:
training ship USS Kenjit.

Host ^SM_Pam says:
Is the good Captain just going on his gut instinct in this matter or is he on some personal agenda? Why did he not allow the Romulan government to pursue the matter inside their own territory instead of risking his ship and his crew?

Host ^SM_Pam says:
Sensors have picked up an energy reading on the fifth planet of the system and by disrupting what appears to be a force field on the surface briefly, animal biosigns similar to Earth wolves, have been found around the entrance to an underground cavern system. (And you thought all the wolves were on the Triton)

Host ^SM_Pam says:
Also detected were some form of lights surrounding the entrance and now the Captain and his staff suspect a trap. (Of course they do, paranoia reigns here)

Host ^SM_Pam says:
The CEO is working on a way to make the Triton appear invisible to sensors to protect from possible Romulan attack like the one the T’Pual made on the Captain’s shuttle. Hopefully that won’t be needed this time.

Host ^SM_Pam says:
Another effort is being made to disrupt the force field before an away team is sent down to investigate. I hope they remember to take some fresh meat for the creatures. ::looks for an npc::

Powers: Thanks for taking over for me.  Please man secondary OPS

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
XO: I have given the Tactical officers modified phasers and compression rifles set to minimum setting

Host ^SM_Pam says:
ACTION: The second beam fires and disrupts the field again but it's still not strong enough to take it down.

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
XO/CTO: Lets hope that we will find some answers down there.

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:

<Powers> OPS: The away team is in position for beam down on the Captain's orders, Ma’am.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
FCO: Keep us above the cavern

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
CO:  The beam has disrupted the field once again, Sir... nevertheless, it is still holding.

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
CO: Aye, Sir.  Transport coordinates are at the ready

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
CO:  Perhaps if we increase the frequency on the Beta Band we can have better results, Captain.

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
~~~OPS:  I'll be back before you know it~~~

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CSO: Work on that Kalek, but for now we can't take the time

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
OPS: I know E'Laina  ::smiles sadly:: I know

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@*CO*:  Just making sure we're still in contact, Sir

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
::listens to the XO's voice, but not before raising an eyebrow to the FCO::  FCO:  What do gallinaceous have to do with it?

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@CTO: The same as what we scanned on the Triton Commander; lower animal species.

FCO_McTiernan says:
Self: Vulcans....

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
OPS: Yes?

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
CMO: The Kenjit is destroyed...however, I do not feel the crew is lost

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@::She looks around the area:: Self: Come on now... caverns.

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@XO: I have the caverns on the tricorder Sir. Shall I lead the way?

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@::begins walking::

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
:: Nods turning to the CO ::   CO: Yes Sir...I am very sure.  I re-examined the cadet uniform.  I do not understand why there was a Romulan symbol with it, though

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@CMO:  Very well

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::sees something:: CSO: Kalek do you see that?

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
OPS: May be a calling card from an old friend Cmdr

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
CO:  Sir...  ::re-checks::  The force field is shrinking...  in a very slow cadency.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
*XO*: Cmdr the force field is slowly disappearing, be ready for trouble

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
OPS: Maybe, it would be just like him

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@*CO*:  Acknowledged

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
@XO: aye Sir

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
CO: Who would that be, Sir?

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@All:  Be ready for possible incoming

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@CMO:  How far is it?
CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
CO:  I may be wrong, but if they are aware that we know they are here, the cloaking is useless.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
OPS: His name, is Sulek, late of the Tal'Shiar but I gave him a name that stuck  "Cloaky”; He’s made making my life miserable a habit 

Host ^SM_Pam says:
<TAC_Monroe>:: stands at his station monitoring the situation below::

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
:: Checks for any communication signal that may be disguised as background noise ::

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@XO: About another 2.5 km Commander. ::Continues to walk...ready for anything::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CSO: Exactly why I think it's time for us all to be prepared for trouble.

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
CO: Sulek, Sir?  Cloaky?  You'll have to update me on that one, Sir.   :: Grins as she checks her console ::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
Monroe: Report

FCO_McTiernan says:
CO: Trouble finds those who seek it. Anything I can do?

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@::keeps moving, still ready::

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
::scans for any other energy spike, since the energy of the field is probably being rerouted to other systems::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
OPS:  A name that he hates to be sure...I will...maybe while we're walking Shane and Jake on the holodeck

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@::She continues to walk hoping that they are almost there as well as hoping everything near the entrances will be safe::

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
:: Smiles ::   CO: I look forward to that explanation, Sir.

Host ^SM_Pam says:
<TAC_Monroe>CO: All normal Sir except that the cloaking field is shrinking.

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
*CSO*: can you give us a reading on where the shield generator may be?

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
FCO: Be ready to engage in evasive maneuvers immediately but keep us above the caverns no matter what

FCO_McTiernan says:
::does as he is told::

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
*CTO*:  I am attempting to pinpoint the coordinates for a generator's possible location, but so far I haven't being successful.  However, the best position would be inside the cavern.

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@XO: Can you… "smell" anything strange? ::Knows about Vince's powerful sense of smell::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::sighs, it's time to let the rest of the bridge know why he's staying still:: ALL: I want you all to know that we're staying stationary for one reason; we are going to buy the AT time to get the job done

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@::sniffs, thinking::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:

::Shane jumps down and heads for Jake::

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
CO:  Aye Captain.  ::is bothered by the dog's smell::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::watches them and smiles:: ALL: We are going to draw any fire, if we can

FCO_McTiernan says:
CO: But if we are buying them time, and we have to retreat or worse, how will they make their escape?

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
FCO: We will not leave without them.  We're here to stay

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@All: One km left. ::Continues to walk, following the tricorder's direction::

FCO_McTiernan says:
CO: Aye.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CSO: Kalek I just gave him a bath

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
FCO: I've got the away team in a solid lock...I'll worry about them...you worry about the safety of the ship

FCO_McTiernan says:
OPS: Will do.

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
XO: It is only another Km to the opening Sir

Host ^SM_Pam says:
ACTION: The sounds of howling wolves can be heard in the distance as the AT approaches the cavern entrance

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
::looks up at his CO::  CO:  I apologize.  As you should know, Vulcan sense of smell is much more refined than human.

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
CO:  Do not worry, Sir.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CSO: I do know Kalek, and I apologize.... I hope you can get used to it

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
:: Smiles at the FCO and whispers ::   FCO: Besides...my boyfriend is down there, and I want him back

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@::Raises an eyebrow as she hears Commander Ray repeat what she just said. Her ears perk a bit when she hears the howls::

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@::looks up at the noise, smiles a bit::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
OPS: We will get them back, that's a promise...you two have been apart enough lately

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
*XO*: How's it going Cmdr?

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
:: Senses Vince and the others on the away team ::   CO: Sir, I believe they are approaching the cavern...  :: Checks her lock on them. ::

Host ^SM_Pam says:
<TAC_Monroe>CO: Captain the away team is nearing the cavern.

@*CO*:  So far so good.  We're almost there.

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
@Tac: ready weapons

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@::She holds the tricorder tightly as she continues to walk closer::

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
FCO:  The female’s senses are more refined than males, like the humans.  That is true.

Host ^SM_Pam says:
<TAC_Monroe> ::nods:: CO: Aye Sir.

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@CMO:  Once we're in visual range, or 100 yards, whatever’s first, drop back

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CEO: Ready for our disappearing act?

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
:: Senses Jake's happiness as he is with Shane and she smiles to herself ::

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:

Host ^SM_Pam says:
<TAC_Monroe>*CTO*: Ready Sir.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CEO: Not until I give the word and only, I repeat, only as a last resort

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
:: Hears the CO and wonders how much power that will take... ::

Host ^SM_Pam says:
ACTION: The howling now turns to growls as the wolves pick up the Away Team's scents.

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@::She stops in her tracks when she hears the growls::

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
::finishes the tests::  CO:  Sir, I have increased the resonance beam's efficiency by increasing the Beta Band frequency to a level closer to the field's frequency, according to our estimations.  I believe it will work well.

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:

@CTO:  On the entrance?  Sure

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
CO: Wolves transports to the island, Sir

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
OPS: Excellent work.  The transporter locks still strong?

FCO_McTiernan says:
CSO: Can we knock it out?

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CSO: Can we disrupt it from here Kalek?

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
:: Checks her lock on the Away Team ::   CO: Aye Sir...I still have them

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
CO:  Unfortunately it is impossible, Sir.

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@XO: Commander I would suggest not running into the lights.

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
CO: Oh sure, Sir...any Federation ship does, that has the knowledge

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
FCO:  We could do it, however it is not advisable.  We do not know if the structure will hold nor who is inside of it.

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@::stops, almost stumbling::

:: Senses the CO and giggles quietly to herself as she feels his excitement ::

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@::Her feet catch in the explosion and she flies to the ground::

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
::watches as the information is gathered on his console::  OPS:  I did see that once, however I have never had the experience of implementing such plan.  This will be very didactic.  ::begins working on the deflector dish's realignment and reconfiguration::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
Monroe:: What happened down there?

Host ^SM_Pam says:
ACTION: The CTO's leg is gashed by flying rock

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
@AT: everyone OK?

Host ^SM_Pam says:
<TAC_Monroe>CO: An explosion Sir right near the away team.

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
CSO: It was very useful when I was assigned to the Scorpius.  Got us out of many a tight situation.   :: Grins ::

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
@:: looks at leg::

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@::Pushes herself up after a moment:: All: Is anyone injured?

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@::knocked out at the moment::

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
:: Is unable to sense Vince and becomes concerned ::

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
FCO:  We could try firing a tachyon burst against the force field.  We would not have to spend too much energy plus we would be able to collect the data on how the field reacts to it.

FCO_McTiernan says:
CSO: How about using some kind of particles to make the shield grid unstable. Would anything we can generate to do that?

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@<Lt. Servek>::Runs over to Commander Vince and tries to get him up::

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
@CMO: next time I give a better warning

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
FCO:  Talk to the Captain, I am sure he will be willing to listen to you.

FCO_McTiernan says:
CSO: How far do we need to be to fire one into the shield?

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
:: Brow furrows together ::   CO: Sir...I'm not sure...something is wrong with the Away team.   :: Checks her lock on them ::

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@::Jogs over to Commander Ray:: CTO: Commander! This is why you give proper time and warning in situations like this! Sit. ::Points to the ground:: CTO: I need to mend that gash.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
OPS: Understood.  Be ready to yank them immediately

FCO_McTiernan says:
CO: I believe we can take down the new shield using a tachyon burst.

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
CO/OPS/FCO:  I have the deflector dish's new configuration and am ready to implement it right away...  ::looks at the CO::  CO:  With your approval, Sir.  It will take a few minutes.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
FCO: Won't know until we try.  Do it

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@<Lt. Servek>::She takes out a hypospray and injects it in the XO, hopefully it will wake him up and he will not feel much pain::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CSO: Do it Kalek

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
@CMO: make it fast. The Romulans will come running

FCO_McTiernan says:
::Fires a tachyon burst at the cavern's shields::

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
:: Nods at the CSO ::   CSO: I have extra power for you to utilize, Sir.   ~~~ XO: Vince? ~~~

Host ^SM_Pam says:
ACTION: The explosions brought down debris almost burying the opening. The lights flicker.

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@::comes to, slightly dizzy and disoriented::

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@::She opens her medkit and takes out a hypospray and injects Commander Ray. She then takes out a portable dermal regenerator and scans it over the wound as Barns cleans up the blood::

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
::nods and sends the information to his teams so they can begin working on the deflector dish::  CO:  Three minutes until the completion.

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
:: Tries not to show how concerned she is... ::   ~~~ XO: Vince? ~~~

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::pieces together what happened down there and is not too happy::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CSO: Understood but don't implement it until we need it Kalek

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@<Lt. Servek>XO: How are you feeling Commander? ::She steadies him::

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@~~~OPS:  I hear you sweetheart~~~

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
OPS:  Understood.  I'll let you know.

Host ^SM_Pam says:
ACTION: The tachyon burst hits the forcefield and the lights dim

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
:: Sighs a bit ::   ~~~ XO: Are you all right?  I lost you for a moment. ~~~

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
CO:  Aye Sir.  ::watches at the dish being reconfigured::

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@CMO:  Anyone get the number of that truck?

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
:: Nods at the CSO ::

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@::After regenerating the gash the best she can she wraps it up:: CTO: There.. now you better be careful next time Commander.

FCO_McTiernan says:
*AT*: I opened the door for you.

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
::checks the field's readings::

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
@XO: Sir we need to move and fast. That will get their attention.

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@~~~OPS:  I was knocked out a moment, but I'll be okay~~~

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@XO/CTO: Well it looks like that little explosion has covered up the entrance.

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
:: Smiles as she hears the XO ::   ~~~ XO: Please be careful, my love ~~~

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
CO/OPS/FCO:  The field's integrity has diminished.

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
FCO:  Nice job.

FCO_McTiernan says:
CSO: Thank you.

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@::tries to stand::  CMO/CTO:  Is the forcefield still up?

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@<Lt. Servek>::Closes her medkit and stands there waiting for their orders::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::nods at the FCO and smiles::

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
@CMO: On the contrary, open it up

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@<Lt. Servek> ::Tries to help the XO by steadying him::

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@CMO/CTO:  Are the caverns underneath still intact?

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
:: Senses Jake pause in his playtime with Shane as he senses E'Laina's concern ::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
OPS: E'Laina, can you let Vince know that they've got a chance if they take it now please?  ::whispers:: Through your link

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
@XO: negative.

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@::She takes out her Tricorder:: XO: Checking Vince.

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
FCO:  Now do not use the tachyon scanners until the emitters are recharged.  Releasing a tachyon burst does not spend too much energy but most of the circuits become overloaded.

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
@XO: the caverns are still intact

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
:: Nods at the CO ::   ~~~ XO: My love, the CO says that you've got a chance if you take it now. ~~~

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::feels Shane move closer to his legs and reaches down to pat his head::

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
::receives a green light from Science Teams::

FCO_McTiernan says:
CSO: Will do.

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@::tries to enter the cave::

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@XO: The forcefield is weakened Commander. Also as Commander Ray stated, the caverns are fine.

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
CO/OPS/FCO:  The deflector dish is realigned and reconfigured.

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
:: Nods at the CSO ::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
OPS: They may get a tingle or so but they should be able to get through

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@XO: Commander I said weakened, not down! ::She grabs him before he runs into it::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CSO:  Let's hope we don't have to use it but I'm glad

Host ^SM_Pam says:
ACTION: As Vince tries to enter the cavern, he feels all tingly.

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
~~~ XO: The CO states you may feel a slight tingle, but you all should be able to get through ~~~

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@::Misses Vince and watches him walk through::

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
OPS:  I need more 1.2 GW to the telescope's system, so the virtual ship becomes closer to real.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::can feel the time slipping away:: ALL: They need to hurry

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
CO:  Aye Captain.  Nevertheless, I would like to see it working.

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@Servek/Barns: I guess that means it is safe. Lets go. ::She enters through the entrance as well::

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@::walks through, turns to the CTO and CMO::  CTO/CMO:  It just tingles a bit.  Our passing through will probably disable it altogether

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
CSO: I'm on it...    :: Fingers fly over her console as she finds the extra power the CSO needs ::   CSO: How's that?

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CSO: So would I Kalek...if we get out of this and don't use it we will on the other side of the Zone ::winks::

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@*CO*:  I'm inside the cave

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
*XO*: Good.  Everyone down there all right so far?

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@::She looks over the Tricorder readings, wondering where they should go::

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
:: Sees the lock on the XO slightly drop in strength ::

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
@AT: Ready weapons and prepare to take out any Romulans

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
::checks the telescope energy levels::   OPS:  I have 1.21 GW.  It is more than the required.  Please reallocate the 0.01 GW to any other system, Commander.

Host ^SM_Pam says:
ACTION: A few meters into the cavern, the away team sees three tunnels branching off in different directions

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@*CO*:  Mostly

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@CTO:  Can you walk?

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@CTO: You better be careful Commander. You will be limping on that leg for a bit, you may want one your Tactical Officers to take the front.

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
:: Hears the CSO and re-distributes the power to the lock on the Away Team ::   CSO: Got it...and thanks

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
::nods::  CO:  That would be pleasant, Sir.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
*XO*: Understood...find her for me Vince; please

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@XO: Vince… the tricorder shows undetermined lifesigns throughout the tunnels.

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
@XO:  good enough to get this over with.

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
:: Hears the CO and senses his deep emotion for the Admiral.  Looks at him quickly then goes back to her console ::

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@XO: They seem to be further inside…much further.

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@All:  Let's go

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@::holding his aching head, starts moving::

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@::She begins to walk with the order:: XO: Would you like something for your head?

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::something still feels out of kilter; something he's missing::

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@CMO:  No time to stop.  I'll deal with it

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
:: Senses the CO ::  CO: Sir...what is it?

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@CTO/CMO:  Let me know if tricorder readings pick up anything more

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
@::takes tunnel 1 with Thesia, and a Medic::

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@XO: We will not need to stop. ::Continues to walk:: Servek: Lieutenant as we are walking give him something for his head.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
OPS: This is all going too easily.  They're waiting to spring the trap and I can't tell when

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
::listens to the conversation but keeps his eyes on the console::

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@<Lt. Servek>::Takes a Hypospray from her kit as she walks. She moves towards the XO and without saying anything injects him with it::

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
:: Nods ::   CO: Sir...I'm not so sure about a trap as of yet. I'm not sensing anything of the sort...at least at the moment

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@All:  Let's split up into two groups

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
OPS/CSO: The first thing that seems even slightly out of place you let me know...I understand E'Laina and that's what worries me

FCO_McTiernan says:
CO: It is truly as they say, too quiet.

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@CMO:  You, one medic, and one security are with me

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
FCO: Exactly Mr. McTiernan

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@::Pauses:: XO: Understood Commander.

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
:: Her brow comes together again as she looks at the CO ::   CO: I do understand Sir...it's all been too easy to this point

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
OPS: I know, it's not logical, not anything tangible, but something is not right... Call it gut instinct

CSO_LtJG_Kalek says:
CO:  Aye Sir.  ::scans the area::

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@Servek: Lieutenant accompany Commander Ray. Your skills will be needed with him.

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@<Lt. Servek>CMO: Aye Sir. ::She moves over to Commander Ray::

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
:: Smiles ::   CO: Well, at this time, your empath isn't sensing anything...and that could be a good thing

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
:: Tries to reassure the CO with her smile ::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::Self: Have I wasted all this time while Serena is taken farther and farther away?:: OPS: Good Cmdr

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
#::takes tunnel 1 with Thesia, and a Medic::

Host XO_Cmdr_Vince says:
@::starts moving along::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
OPS: That's good enough for now ::Smiles::

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
@::Follows Commander Vince:: XO: Lets hope for the best.

OPS_LtCmdr_Anari says:
:: Smiles back at the CO ::

CMO_LtCmdr_Yates says:
#<Lt. Servek>CTO: Commander please be advised that your wound will not allow you to move very quickly. If you feel any pain inform me and I will administer a painkiller.

Host ^SM_Pam says:
ACTION: Scans on the Triton pickup something on long-range sensors.
