U.S.S. Vesuvius – March 14, 2000

Host CO_Alar says:
The Vesuvius has been sent into the Penthil system to investigate celestial phenomena.

Host CO_Alar says:
However, the crew found something they had not been expecting- an organic vessel similar in appearance to the fabled Tin Man.

Host CO_Alar says:
The vessel scanned the Vesuvius, and then transported Doole, Royce, Kelson and Von Kruger.

Host CO_Alar says:
to their vessel. Von Kruger was then absorbed into the vessel and killed.

Host CO_Alar says:
Three lives remain to hang in the balance while the crew on the Vesuvius fights to bring them home.

Host CO_Alar says:

::listening to Doole's response::

CSO_Lorenzo says:
::At SCI station 1, working on the specifications for the shuttle::

FCO_Doole says:
~~~~@Jalara: Ensign Von Kruger has just been killed by this thing. See if you can find another energy source and hurry.~~~~

CEO_Davis says:
::ducks into TurboLift::

FCO_Doole says:
MO: not that I know of...yet

CEO_Davis says:
TL: Bridge.

TO_Wakefield says:
::at tactical::  *CEO*:  Chief, I need you help and I need it fast.

TO_Wakefield says:
<your>

CNS_Jalara says:
CO:  Ensign Doole says that Von Kruger has been killed.  He suggests we find another energy source for the alien vessel.

CEO_Davis says:
*TO*: I'm enroute to the Bridge. Where are you?

FCO_Doole says:
~~~~Alien: Is there another energy source that would be able to help you survive better?~~~~

TO_Wakefield says:
*CEO*:  I'm at tactical, can you change course and head for shuttlebay three?  I want to outfit the Caldera with a microtorpedo launcher.

CSO_Lorenzo says:
CO:Captain, may I suggest an energy pulse, it should hurt the vessel with out destroying it, or our people.

Host CO_Alar says:
Jalara: I've read about this species. They have no other energy source.

CEO_Davis says:
*TO*: I'm on my way.  Davis out.

CEO_Davis says:
TL: Computer, change destination to Shuttle Bay III.

TO_Wakefield says:
*CEO*:  Thanks Cheif.  Wakefield out.

Host CO_Alar says:
Lorenzo: Last time we tried that one of our crew was sent as a repair team.

Host CO_Alar says:
I think it would be better if you explored the radiation option.

MO-LtJg-Xenobia says:
:: looks at tricorder, being to get some readings, though still garbled::

Host CO_Alar says:
<lorenzo>

CSO_Lorenzo says:
CO:Aye Captain.

CEO_Davis says:
::feels the subtle shift as the TurboLift changes directions::

CSO_Lorenzo says:
::Continues her studies of the radiation samples::

Host CO_Alar says:
ACTION: A scurrying is heard along the floor of the organic ship, scuttling towards the remaining hostages.

TO_Wakefield says:
CO:  The CEO is one his way to shuttlebay three to begin fixing a microtorpedo launcher onto the Caldera.

MO-LtJg-Xenobia says:
Doole:  is there another scource of food for this vessel?

MO-LtJg-Xenobia says:
:: hears and looks quickly at the floor::

CTO_Kelson says:
All: What's that coming at us?

FCO_Doole says:
MO: No.

Sovok (Travona1@user.acalltoduty.net-31363.tnt3.redmond2.wa.da.uu) has joined the conversation.

CEO_Davis says:
::bolts out of TurboLift, walks around one corner, then directly into th shuttlebay::

CTO_Kelson says:
::backs away::

Host CO_Alar says:
Wakefield: Are you fitting the torpedos with transport enhancers?::furrows brow::

MO-LtJg-Xenobia says:
:: stands defiantly ::

FCO_Doole says:
Kelson: Don't move.

CTO_Kelson says:
::stops moving::

Host CO_Alar says:
<*Wakefield*>

FCO_Doole says:
::looks at floor::

CTO_Kelson says:
All: can anyone get a reading?

Host CO_Alar says:
ACTION: The scuttling stops, but as the hostages wait, something crawls up from under the floor and into the boots of all three.

CEO_Davis says:
::finds the shuttlecraft Caldera and looks towards the front of it, attempting to find an expansion bay to install the torpedo launcher into::

TO_Wakefield says:
CO:  Negative Captain.  There for the unfortunate circumstance that the ship closes the hole the shuttle enters through.

MO-LtJg-Xenobia says:
:: trying to get any kind of tricorder reading:: All: nothing here

FCO_Doole says:
~~~Alien: What are these things?~~~~

MO-LtJg-Xenobia says:
:: feels something in her boot::

TO_Wakefield says:
<They're>

CTO_Kelson says:
::tries to stay still::

Host CO_Alar says:
ACTION: The parasites burrow into the leg, and then travel quickly to the top of the spinal cord, where they take up residence.

FCO_Doole says:
~~~~@Jalara: Have you found anything, yet?~~~~

CEO_Davis says:
::see's a slot off-left of th center window; he places both hands on the top and bottom, respectively, and rips the plate off, revealing a small opening::

CNS_Jalara says:
CO:  Captain!!  The parasites we read about, I think that they've attacked.

CTO_Kelson says:
::falls to ground, convulcing::

CEO_Davis says:
::see's an engineering officer moving a launcher on a hover-cart towards him::

Host CO_Alar says:
ACTION: Kelson and Doole have been possessed, and possesion is nine-tenths of the law.

MO-LtJg-Xenobia says:
:: kneels to try to help Kelson ::

Host CO_Alar says:
Jalara: Can you still contact Doole?

MO-LtJg-Xenobia says:
:: tricorder readings indicate some kind of parasite in his system::

CNS_Jalara says:
::Turns a very pale color::  Alar:  It's like he's been possessed by something.  Kelson too.

MO-LtJg-Xenobia says:
:: looks at Doole, scans him also ::

MO-LtJg-Xenobia says:
Doole:  you have the parasite in you also

TO_Wakefield says:
CO:  Request permission to lead a rescue mission.

CTO_Kelson says:
::convulsions start to slow::

Host CO_Alar says:
ACTION: Royce's parasite can't take hold, and pokes a hole through the back of her neck and then crawls out.

CEO_Davis says:
::nods to the engineer, not bothering to include any other message of thanks; he figures the woman has the point::

CSO_Lorenzo says:
CO:Must be the mind control reported ont he Avalon.

MO-LtJg-Xenobia says:
::scans herself, finds no indication of the parasite in her system::

FCO_Doole says:
~~~~@Jalara: Some sort of parasite has entered our bodies and are possesing Ensign Kelson and myself~~~~

CEO_Davis says:
::moves hover-cart towards the exposed bay and picks up the microlauncher, gently sliding it in to the bay::

CSO_Lorenzo says:
<on the>

MO-LtJg-Xenobia says:
:: feels the parasite leave through back of neck::  All:  ick!

CNS_Jalara says:
CO:  Dr. Royce seems to be okay.

TO_Wakefield says:
::feels tingling in the brain::

Host CO_Alar says:
ACTION: The parasites suppress the thoughts of Kelson and Doole and take control of their motor functions.

CEO_Davis says:
::after sliding the launcher in three-fourths of the way, he has trouble getting it in for some reason::

CTO_Kelson says:
MO:  Hello.  Are you here to join paradise?

CNS_Jalara says:
CO:  I can't seem to get through to Doole anymore.  I'm afriad the parasite has taken complete control of him.

MO-LtJg-Xenobia says:
Kelson:  Paradise?  what do you mean?

CTO_Kelson says:
MO: It's wonderful here.

CEO_Davis says:
::shrugs, and takes heel of hand and smacks it into the front of the bay::

MO-LtJg-Xenobia says:
Kelson:  please explain, paradise.

FCO_Doole says:
MO: You will join us. We will become one.

CEO_Davis says:
::holds hand in pain, realizing that his effort didn't really work out::

CTO_Kelson says:
MO:  This ship is full of wonderful experiences if you just let yourself go!  ::smiles::

CSO_Lorenzo says:
TO:I may have something for your shuttle.

TO_Wakefield says:
CSO:  I'm listening Julia.

CEO_Davis says:
::holds hand on craft to gain balance so he can measure up to the pain for a moment; unknowlingly, he places his hand on the launcher, and it slides in::

FCO_Doole says:
MO: Yes, must let go of self

MO-LtJg-Xenobia says:
Kelson:  are you the parasite that has just entered my crewmates?

CEO_Davis says:
::smiles, and accesses the control panel on the side of the launcher and activates it manuallly::

CTO_Kelson says:
MO:  Parasite?  We are just helping your crewmate fulfill his destiny...

CSO_Lorenzo says:
TO:There may be a way to package samples of the radiation into gel pack and line your shuttle with, it will mask your  ship from the vessel.

Host CO_Alar says:
*Wakefield* Assemble a small away team- no more than four members, and disembark as soon as possible.

CEO_Davis says:
::pushes on the launcher one last time, and finally hears the click he has been waiting for::

MO-LtJg-Xenobia says:
All:  I have a parasite living in me.  Is that why the parasite left me?

CNS_Jalara says:
Wakefield:  I would like to volunteer.

FCO_Doole says:
MO: Yes. Full potential

MO-LtJg-Xenobia says:
All:  then help me to see my destiny.  My parasite is different from you.

TO_Wakefield says:
CO:  Aye Captain.  Julia, glad to have you.  Let's go.

FCO_Doole says:
MO: Parasite no like you. Danger to us

CEO_Davis says:
Computer: Initialize microlauncher in Shuttlecraft Caldera and activate.

TO_Wakefield says:
::walks towards turbolift::

FCO_Doole says:
MO: Danger. Harmful

Host CO_Alar says:
ACTION: The walls holding the three open, and they are granted access to a hallway.

CEO_Davis says:
EO Burns: CEO: We've loaded several torpedoes into the area under the floor level.  You should be good to go..

MO-LtJg-Xenobia says:
All:  how is my parasite dangerous to you?

CTO_Kelson says:
MO: We must move on now...

CEO_Davis says:
Burns: Thanks.

FCO_Doole says:
MO: Follow.

CTO_Kelson says:
::starts down the hallway::

MO-LtJg-Xenobia says:

FCO_Doole says:
MO: talk to Master, he listen.

Host CO_Alar says:
ACTION: An approximation of a mouth appears on the being, and it speaks.

CEO_Davis says:
::looks at Wakefield::

CEO_Davis says:
TO: Awful lot of metal, don't you think?

Host CO_Alar says:
<Master> Why do you resist us? Our unity makes us powerful.

CEO_Davis says:
::activates engines and awaits for the doors to open::

FCO_Doole says:
MO: No die. Become one with us

CSO_Lorenzo says:
TO:My studies of the radiation show it does effect metal, but our phasers have no effect in their environment either, I suggest knives.

CSO_Lorenzo says:
::Readies thrusters and takes her out::

CTO_Kelson says:
MO: Yes...all in one.

MO-LtJg-Xenobia says:
