CTO Wakefield says:
:: At SCI II, trying to adjust sensors to penetrate the fourth planet's ionosphere ::

OPS Brehgorn says:
:: At OPS, monitoring ship systems ::

Host AGM Selan says:
ACTION: The Vesuvius is now entering orbit of the Fourth Planet as Science continues scans.

Host CO Royce says:
:: In her ready room with a gift wrapped box for Sam ::

Host CO Royce says:
:: Exits ready room with box ::

FCO Lane says:
:: At her station preparing for orbit entry ::

Host CO Royce says:
:: Sits in  her chair, placing box to the side at her feet ::

OPS Brehgorn says:
All: Captain on the bridge.

CTO Wakefield says:
CO:  I'm getting readings from the fourth planet.

CTO Wakefield says:
CO:  Looks to be M-class...

Host CO Royce says:
CTO:  What kinds of readings, Dathan?

Host CO Royce says:
CTO:  Life?

CTO Wakefield says:
CO:  There are some strange energy readings coming from a desert region, I'm having trouble scanning that area due to them.

FCO Lane says:
CO: Captain entering orbit of the fourth planet, standard orbit ma'am.

Host CO Royce says:
FCO:  Thank you, Lane

CTO Wakefield says:
CO:  There may be life forms, but the energy is skewing the sensor readings.

OPS Brehgorn says:
Self: How could this dead rock support life?

Host CO Royce says:
CTO:  Anyway to boost power so we can get a better read on the type and whereabouts of the power source?

CTO Wakefield says:
CO:  Possibly.   OPS:  Could I have all available power to the sensors arrays?

FCO Lane says:
:: Sets orbit co-ordinates ::

Host XO Kelson says:
:: Rushes out of quarters ::

Host XO Kelson says:
::enters turbolift::

OPS Brehgorn says:
CTO: One moment.  :: Transfers more power to the sensor arrays ::

Host XO Kelson says:
Computer: Bridge.

Host XO Kelson says:
:: Enters bridge ::

CTO Wakefield says:
OPS:  Thanks.  :: Rescans with higher power::

CTO Wakefield says:
CO:  Getting readings now, Captain...

Host XO Kelson says:
CO: Sorry I'm late Captain. :: Walks to chair ::

Host CO Royce says:
:: Awaiting report from CTO ::

FCO Lane says:
:: Overhears the CTO and transfers power from the secondary systems to his sensors ::

Host CO Royce says:
:: Smiles ::  XO: Glad to have you here at least, Commander.

CTO Wakefield says:
CO:  Looks like a Vulcan power signature, maybe a colony generator...

Host CO Royce says:
CTO:  Vulcan?

Host CO Royce says:
:: Hands a PADD to Sam ::

CTO Wakefield says:
CO: However... this type of energy reading is consistent with older Vulcan technology.

Host CO Royce says:
XO:  Here is what we've learned so far…

FCO Lane says:
:: Glances over at the CTO::    Self: Vulcan?

CTO Wakefield says:
CO:  And I mean older...

Host CO Royce says:
CTO:  How old?

Host XO Kelson says:
:: Takes padd ::

CTO Wakefield says:
CO:  Two hundred years, give or take...

Host XO Kelson says:
:: Scans data on system to get up to speed ::

Host CO Royce says:
CTO:  Two hundred years?

CTO Wakefield says:
CO:  Aye.

Host CO Royce says:
CTO:  Is there any record of Vulcans in this area 200 years ago?

CTO Wakefield says:
:: Accesses computer records ::

CTO Wakefield says:
CO:  The Vulcans did explore this region of space.

OPS Brehgorn says:
:: Begins scanning for any sort of communication relays from the planet ::

Host CO Royce says:
CTO:  Any records of lost vessels?

CTO Wakefield says:
CO:  However, there are no records that they attempted to colonize it.

FCO Lane says:
:: Monitors the area for any signs of other ships ::

Host CO Royce says:
XO:  Sam, what's your thought?

Host XO Kelson says:
CO: Could be a rogue Vulcan offshoot...

CTO Wakefield says:
CO:  Negative Captain.  No reported losses in this region.

OPS Brehgorn says:
:: Adds scans to discern whether the area is capable of sustaining life ::

Host CO Royce says:
:: Nods at XO's explanation ::

OPS Brehgorn says:
XO/CO: There are no discernable comm signals coming from the planet.

Host XO Kelson says:
CO: Some type of philosophical change in part of Vulcan society.

Host XO Kelson says:
CO: They then needed to find a new home.

CTO Wakefield says:
CO:  There was a great deal of unrecorded colonization of space 200 years ago by many of the federation species Captain.  It could be one of them.

Host CO Royce says:
:: Nods ::   All:  understood....   :: looks to Sam ::

Host XO Kelson says:
CO: I give reference to Commander Spock's brother's sect around 90 years ago.

Host CO Royce says:
XO:  Assemble an away team.  Find out where that power is coming from.

Host XO Kelson says:
CO: Definitely enough to go investigate.

Host XO Kelson says:
CO: Aye, Captain.

Host CO Royce says:
:: Nods at XO's explanation ::     XO:  could be...find out what you can

Host XO Kelson says:
OPS/CTO: Dathan, Hrothgar...your with me.

Host XO Kelson says:
:: Gets up and heads to turbolift ::

CTO Wakefield says:
CO:  There were quite a few colonization vessels that left Federation space and were never heard from again, however, none of them came out this way.

OPS Brehgorn says:
CO: Captain...here is a subspace beacon.  With it, you should be able to locate us if communication is impossible.

OPS Brehgorn says:
:: Follows the XO ::

Host CO Royce says:
FCO:  Keep a lock on them.  Any trouble, I want them back immediately

Host AGM Selan says:
ACTION: Junior officers arrive on the bridge to replace OPS and CTO.

CTO Wakefield says:
:: Stands and checks his phaser, heads for turbolift ::

Host CO Royce says:
OPS:  Thank you.

Host AGM Selan says:
<Ens. at OPS>:: Nods at OPS as he takes the station ::

Host CO Royce says:
:: Nods to CTO ::

FCO Lane says:
CO: Aye ma'am.

Host AGM Selan says:
<Lt. Jg. at TAC>:: Nods as she takes tactical ::

Host XO Kelson says:
:: Takes turbolift to transporter room ::

OPS Brehgorn says:
:: Takes hold of his trusty phaser and tricorder ::

Host XO Kelson says:
CTO: What's the atmosphere like down there?

CTO Wakefield says:
Away Team: Set your phasers for level two stun gentlemen.

CTO Wakefield says:
XO:  M-class.

Host XO Kelson says:
CTO: Thank you.

CTO Wakefield says:
XO: The area I scanned was a desert region.  We should bring water rations just in case.

FCO Lane says:
:: Checks her sensor lock on the Away Team ::

Host CO Royce says:
:: Stands and walks around the bridge ::

Host CO Royce says:
:: Wonders about what the Away Team could find down on the planet's surface ::

Host XO Kelson says:
CTO: Dathan, set a perimeter as soon as we beam down.

CTO Wakefield says:
XO:  Aye.

OPS Brehgorn says:
XO,/CTO: Shall we, gentlemen?

Host XO Kelson says:
OPS: Get a lock on that energy source as soon as possible when we get to the planet.

CTO Wakefield says:
:: Nods at OPS ::

OPS Brehgorn says:
XO: Understood, sir.

Host XO Kelson says:
:: Climbs onto transporter pad ::

OPS Brehgorn says:
:: Steps on transporter pad ::

CTO Wakefield says:
:: Stands on transporter pad, draws phaser ::

Host XO Kelson says:
:: Checks water canister, phaser, etc. ::

Host CO Royce says:
FCO:  Lane, scan the surrounding space at your leisure.  I don't want to be surprised if anyone is around

Host XO Kelson says:
Transporter chief:: Ready to beam down, Ensign.

FCO Lane says:
CO: On it ma'am…  :: Begins a sensor sweep of the area::

Host AGM Selan says:
<Transporter Chief> XO: Aye, sir.

Host AGM Selan says:
<Transporter Chief>:: Beams them down ::

Host AGM Selan says:
ACTION: The Away Team beams down into the middle of a burning hot desert ... the heat soon subsides as a gentle, cool, wind passes through ... some dust and sand brushes against their uniforms ... in the distance, they can see some rocky outcroppings ... and what appears to be large tents.

OPS Brehgorn says:
@:: materializes on planet surface and initiates tricorder scans for the energy source::

CTO Wakefield says:
@:: quickly scans the area visually ::

OPS Brehgorn says:
@XO: I can only assume that those tent-like structures are part of the equation.

Host XO Kelson says:
@:: Blocks blowing sand from eyes ::

CTO Wakefield says:
@:: We're out in the open here Commander.  Nowhere to hide from an ambush…nowhere to set an ambush.

Host XO Kelson says:
@OPS: Agreed, let's proceed cautiously.

OPS Brehgorn says:
@XO: Readings confirm that the power source is coming from that...dwelling.

OPS Brehgorn says:
@:: Holds tight onto phaser ::

OPS Brehgorn says:
@XO/CTO: You know...today is the Ides of March, gentlemen.

Host XO Kelson says:
@*CO* Captain, we've located the power source.  Will proceed to collection of tents.

OPS Brehgorn says:
@:: Heads toward tents::

Host CO Royce says:
@*XO* Acknowledged.  Use caution, Sam.

CTO Wakefield says:
@:: Heads towards tents ::

Host XO Kelson says:
@OPS: Well lets hope we have better luck...lets go.

Host XO Kelson says:
:: follows Dathan who has point ::

OPS Brehgorn says:
@XO: Agreed.

CTO Wakefield says:
@:: Takes lead, looking for possible ambushes, and escape routes ::

OPS Brehgorn says:
@:: Scans for life forms ::

CTO Wakefield says:
@OPS:  Your tricorder picking up any lifesigns?

OPS Brehgorn says:
@CTO: Stand bye.

FCO Lane says:
:: Sits back in her chair a bit and plays with the fuzzy dice ::

CTO Wakefield says:
@:: Continues walking at a slow pace ::

Host XO Kelson says:
@CTO: How's your vision, Dathan…sand causing a hindrance?

Host AGM Selan says:
ACTION: As they approach the encampment ... the AT begins to notice wreckage spread out around the tents ... old, rusting, wreckage. Yet, the way the wreckage is place ... it's more like whatever the metal thing was, it was dissected?

Host CO Royce says:
:: Sits back down in her chair ::

CTO Wakefield says:
@XO:  It's not too bad.

CTO Wakefield says:
@XO: This wreckage pattern is not consistent with a crash Commander.

Host XO Kelson says:
@CTO: What is it consistent with then?  Cannibalized?

Host AGM Selan says:
ACTION: There is shouting from the encampment ... that of a child, "SOMEONE'S COMING!!!"

OPS Brehgorn says:
@CTO/ XO: I'm reading at least 89 life forms...all human...some may be dwelling in a series of subterranean caverns.

FCO Lane says:
:: Leans forward and checks the Away Team's location ::

OPS Brehgorn says:
@XO: Recommend we declare a peaceful intent!

Host XO Kelson says:
@CTO/OPS:: Alright, let's get ready to meet and greet...

CTO Wakefield says:
@XO:  Aye.

CTO Wakefield says:
@Away Team:  Holster your phaser’s gentlemen.

Host CO Royce says:
:: Begins to tap her fingers, gently on the armrest ::

OPS Brehgorn says:
@XO: Perhaps a gift of water would be in order.

Host XO Kelson says:
@OPS: Just what I had in mind.  :: Smiles ::

CTO Wakefield says:
@Away Team:  Let's not appear threatening.

CTO Wakefield says:
@:: Puts phaser in holster on left hip ::

Host XO Kelson says:
@:: Follows the child into the camp ::

Host AGM Selan says:
ACTION: Several men and women, followed by children exit the tents ... most of the men are holding weapons, rocky blades, bows and arrows ... even actual rocks.

FCO Lane says:
:: Peeks over at the Captain when she hears her fingers tapping ::

OPS Brehgorn says:
@People: Hello...we come in peace!

Host Arnold says:
@:: Raises his rock blade ::     ALL: Stop right there!!!

Host XO Kelson says:
@:: Holds arms open ::      Group: We are from the Federation, we come in peace.

OPS Brehgorn says:
@:: Stops and holds up a canteen of water ::

CTO Wakefield says:
@:: imitates XO, holds arms open ::

Host CO Royce says:
FCO:  status of the Away Team?

Host Arnold says:
ACTION: Some of the men who hold bows draw back on the strings, preparing to fire.

Host XO Kelson says:
@Man: We have been interested in your camp…can we be of service?

Host Arnold says:
@ XO: Never heard of a Federation. What are you?

FCO Lane says:
CO: They are in communication with several humanoids. Everything appears normal Captain.

Host Arnold says:
@:: Prepared to attack ::

OPS Brehgorn says:
@People: Please...we mean you no harm!

Host CO Royce says:
:: Nodding ::   FCO:  thank you, Lane.

CTO Wakefield says:
@Man:  We are human.  :: Motioning to XO ::

CTO Wakefield says:
@Man: He is Acamarian.  :: Motioning to OPS ::

OPS Brehgorn says:
@:: Whispers::  CTO: Maybe phasers aren't out of order.

Host XO Kelson says:
@Man: We are travelers along a great desert, like you.  We only come to trade.

Host Arnold says:
<Jacob> @ CTO: What's an Aca - Marian?   :: Standing behind Arnold with a bow and arrow ::

CTO Wakefield says:
@OPS:  Don't touch that phaser yet.

Host Arnold says:
@ XO: Bull. It's been centuries since we've had visitors…

Host XO Kelson says:
@AT: Gentlemen...at ease.  Let me do the talking.

CTO Wakefield says:
@Jacob:  An Acamarian is very much like a human.

Host Arnold says:
ACTION: Dozens and dozens of people begin to exit the caves, some hold weapons; others watch in awe...all are human.

OPS Brehgorn says:
@People: I am from a planet called Acamar III.  I was raised by humans such as yourselves.

CTO Wakefield says:
@XO:  Aye.

Host XO Kelson says:
@Man: Have you traversed the entire planet?  Could it be possible we could be from another part of your world?

OPS Brehgorn says:
@XO: Aye, sir.

Host Arnold says:
@ XO: This isn't our world. For all we know you're for the demons...here to experiment on us further...you're just another trick to lower our defenses.

Host XO Kelson says:
@MAN: What is your name, sir?

Host Arnold says:
@:: Doesn't say anything for a moment...then turns to look at the others::

Host Arnold says:
<Jacob> @:: Shrugs at Arnold ::

Host XO Kelson says:
@Man: I am called Kelson.  We do not know about these demons.  Could you explain?

FCO Lane says:
:: Tries to clear up the distortions caused by the energy readings ::

Host CO Royce says:
:: Begins to fidget in her chair ::

Host Arnold says:
@ XO: No, we're not here to answer your questions. Go back to the demons, and tell them to stay away...we're prepared to fight.

OPS Brehgorn says:
@:: Notices people staring at his temporal tattoos ::

CTO Wakefield says:
@XO:  Perhaps something closer to the truth may be in order here.

Host XO Kelson says:
@Arnold: May I have your name so that when we meet these demons we can give them your warning?

Host Arnold says:
@ XO: No.   :: Turns to head back into the crowd of humans to tell them to go back, and prepare defensive measure if necessary ::

FCO Lane says:
CO: Sorry to interrupt Captain, I still have a lock on the Away Team but I can't seem to get a definite reading on the lifesigns on the planet.

Host XO Kelson says:
@:: Nods to CTO ::       CTO: possibly

Host XO Kelson says:
@OPS: Try the water again, Hrothgar.

Host CO Royce says:
:: Nods ::   FCO:  Thank you, Lane.  Is it the energy reading that is still blocking the life sign signatures?

OPS Brehgorn says:
@Leader:  We are prepared to offer you gifts of water.

CTO Wakefield says:
@:: Notices an interesting piece of wreckage, tries to look at it closer ::

Host XO Kelson says:
@Arnold: We have things for trade, if you are interested?  :: Motions to OPS ::

Host Arnold says:
@ OPS: Good for you. :: Whispers something into a woman's ear, and she begins to gather up the children and head back into the caves ::

FCO Lane says:
CO: Yes ma'am, they're disrupting the scanners. I'm trying to compensate.

OPS Brehgorn says:
@ XO: Perhaps we should apprise the Captain of our situation.

CTO Wakefield says:
@XO::  Sam…that piece of wreckage...there's a picture of the flag of the United States of America.  See it?  :: Points ::

Host CO Royce says:
FCO:  Thank you, Lane

Host XO Kelson says:
@OPS: Good idea.  I'm at a loss...

OPS Brehgorn says:
@:: Turns head::   Self: United States of America.

OPS Brehgorn says:
@XO: Commander...I have an idea.

Host XO Kelson says:
@*CO* Captain, we've made contact with the life forms.

CTO Wakefield says:
@XO:  As do I.

Host Arnold says:
ACTION: Women and children begin to pull back into the caves and tents, the men begin to set up defensive positions...expecting the Away Team to have reinforcements to help them attack any moment.

Host CO Royce says:
@*XO*: What's your status?

OPS Brehgorn says:
@CTO: Bill Clinton...George Bush...these were United States leaders, were they not?

Host XO Kelson says:
@Away Team:  what do you have gentlemen?

Host XO Kelson says:
@OPS: If my history is correct, yes...

OPS Brehgorn says:
@XO: Perhaps we can use American history to show that we are not enemies.

CTO Wakefield says:
@XO:  At the end of the20th century yes.

CTO Wakefield says:
@XO:  I'm not sure what year that wreckage is from though.

OPS Brehgorn says:
@XO: If we are familiar with their history, they may be more likely to...communicate.

Host XO Kelson says:
@*CO*: Very cautious, these people.  Will not give any information.

CTO Wakefield says:
@XO:  Why don't you tell them we are representatives of President Royce?

Host CO Royce says:
@*XO*: Acknowledged.  Is there anything to report about the energy readings?

Host XO Kelson says:
@OPS: Excellent idea.  Let's try it.

Host XO Kelson says:
@*CO*: We've located the energy readings but can't get close enough to identify it.

Host XO Kelson says:
@:: Walks toward defense line ::

OPS Brehgorn says:
@XO: My knowledge of American history is not, shall we say, encyclopedic.  CTO: Care to give it a shot?

FCO Lane says:
:: Continues to work on her sensors and scanners ::

Host CO Royce says:
@*XO*:  Do what you can, Sam to get those people to trust you.

OPS Brehgorn says:
@:: Notices the XO taking the initiative ::

CTO Wakefield says:
@OPS:  Hold up a sec.

Host XO Kelson says:
@Leader: We come with a message from the President.  Can you receive it?

Host Arnold says:
ACTION: Those on the defense line prepare for the attack...the "arrow-men" prepare their weapons.

OPS Brehgorn says:
@CTO: Gotcha.  :: Tries to get a better reading on the energy source ::

Host Arnold says:
@:: Behind the arrow-men, calls out::   XO: The President, eh? My father says the demons used that trick a few times, after we rebelled...

Host XO Kelson says:
@Leader: Then do you not think there is a President any longer?

Host Arnold says:
@ XO: I sure hope there is...and he's having the good ol' US nuke you and your sorry race to pieces!

Host XO Kelson says:
@Leader: Did the Demons know the names of past Presidents?

OPS Brehgorn says:
@:: Looks to CTO::   CTO: I guess it was worth a try...

Host Arnold says:
@ XO: They knew a lot...pointed eared <censored>!

CTO Wakefield says:
@XO:  Romulans.

OPS Brehgorn says:
@Self: Vulcans...or...Romulans

Host XO Kelson says:
@Leader: If I name a few or answer your questions, will you let us talk?

Host Arnold says:
<Jacob> @ :: In charge of the arrow-men::   Arnold: Should we launch an attack? Give them a warning?

Host Arnold says:
@ XO: No...go. Last warning.

CTO Wakefield says:
@XO:  Their technology is very similar.  And Romulans would have no problems attacking these people.

OPS Brehgorn says:
@XO: Perhaps we should reevaluate our strategy.

CTO Wakefield says:
@XO:  Lets back off a bit.

Host XO Kelson says:
@Leader: Very well.  We shall leave you at this time.  I regret that we could not be friends.  :: Bows and backs away ::

Host XO Kelson says:
@Away Team: Okay gentlemen.  Any suggestions?

OPS Brehgorn says:
@XO: I believe these people are being tormented by either Romulans or...Vulcans...perhaps they are responsible for the blockage of readings.

CTO Wakefield says:
@XO:  I don't believe the Vulcans would do this, unless they've gone crazy.

Host XO Kelson says:
@CTO: Okay, so why do they fear us?  We are not Vulcans or Romulans?

OPS Brehgorn says:
@XO: Either way, I recommend we try to discover these "demons" and end their experiments.

Host Arnold says:
<Jacob> @:: Sees that they're still there...tires of this, gives the order to open fire ::

Host Arnold says:
ACTION: Suddenly, twenty arrows fly at the Away Team.

CTO Wakefield says:
@Away Team:  DOWN!!!

OPS Brehgorn says:
@XO/CTO: Lets move!

Host XO Kelson says:
@AT: Hit the deck!

CTO Wakefield says:
@:: Hits ground and drags Sam down with him ::

Host Arnold says:
ACTION: One arrow strikes the CTO in the arm; the others miss as the Away Team dives for cover.

OPS Brehgorn says:
@:: Ducks as the arrows fly overhead ::

OPS Brehgorn says:
@CTO: Are you all right?!?!

CTO Wakefield says:
@Aloud:  Son of a !#$@!

CTO Wakefield says:
:: Breaks the tail off of the arrow ::

CTO Wakefield says:
@OPS  Yes!  Stay down!

Host XO Kelson says:
@*CO*: We are under attack by arrows of all things…request beam out.  Dathan's been hit.

Host Arnold says:
@:: Stands back and watches ::

Host Arnold says:
<Jacob> @:: Gestures for the next wave to fire ::

CTO Wakefield says:
@XO:  No.  Belay that Sam!!!

Host Arnold says:
ACTION: The arrow-men reload their arrows...

OPS Brehgorn says:
@Self: They want demons, eh?

Host CO Royce says:
*Transporter Chief*:  Emergency Beam-out of the Away Team...now.

CTO Wakefield says:
@XO:  Wait!

Host Arnold says:
<Transporter Chief> *CO*: Aye, ma'am.

Host XO Kelson says:
@CTO: NO!  No return fire!

CTO Wakefield says:
@XO:  That's not what I mean either!!

Host Arnold says:
<Transporter Chief>:: Locks onto their position, picks up the comm-badge frequencies, and beams them up ::

Host Arnold says:
ACTION: The Away Team disappears in a transporter beam, and appears back on the Vesuvius.

Host Arnold says:
@:: Looks surprised as the men disappear in a flash of light ::    All: Whoa.

OPS Brehgorn says:
:: Materializes on transporter pad::   *SB*: Medical team to transporter bay 1.

FCO Lane says:
CO: Captain, the Away Team is in the transporter room.

Host AGM Selan says:
<Sickbay> *OPS*: Aye, sir.

CTO Wakefield says:
:: Materializes in transporter room.

Host CO Royce says:
FCO:  You have the bridge.  I'll be headed to sickbay

Host XO Kelson says:
CTO: I know you were hit by an arrow, but "belay that order"?

CTO Wakefield says:
XO:  Sam, now that they've seen us vanish into thin air they really will think we're demons.

FCO Lane says:
CO: Acknowledged.

Host CO Royce says:
:: Heads towards sickbay ::

CTO Wakefield says:
XO:  We should have stayed and waited for them to calm down.

Host CO Royce says:
*XO*: Sam, get Dathan to sickbay.  Can he walk?

OPS Brehgorn says:
XO:  Those *$@^@$* should see what real demons are.

FCO Lane says:
:: Checks to be sure that the ship's orbit is secure and walks over to the big chair ::

Host XO Kelson says:
CTO: I'll take the heat for getting us out of there.  In the mean time, several hundred arrows pierce us.  No, safety first.

Host CO Royce says:
:: enters turbolift ::    <computer >:  Deck 12

CTO Wakefield says:
*CO*:  I'm fine Captain…just a flesh wound.

Host XO Kelson says:
OPS: Simmer down.  They were just protecting their own.

Host CO Royce says:
*CTO*:  Flesh wound or not, Dathan, report to sickbay.

OPS Brehgorn says:
XO: Yes, sir. :: Collects emotions ::

Host XO Kelson says:
*CO*: Aye Captain…on our way.

FCO Lane says:
:: Looks over at the Tactical officer::   TO: Any signs of hostiles?

Host CO Royce says:
:: Exits turbolift and heads towards sickbay ::

CTO Wakefield says:
*CO*:  Aye Captain.   XO:  Looks like I have no choice.   :: Nods to XO and OPS as he leaves transporter room for sickbay::    Self:  I hope Tymes isn't there…Han, or Aola, or anyone else...

Host XO Kelson says:
*CO*: Aye, Captain…on our way.

CTO Wakefield says:
:: Enters sickbay and sees Doctor...::

Host CO Royce says:
:: Enters sickbay ::   Brooks:  prepare for an injury.

OPS Brehgorn says:
XO: Shall I resume my station on the bridge, sir?

Host CO Royce says:
::  Sees Dathan ::   CTO: Have a seat.

CTO Wakefield says:
CO:  Oh…morning Captain.

Host XO Kelson says:
OPS:  Let's meet with the Captain first.  To sickbay...

CTO Wakefield says:
:: Sits on biobed ::  CO:  What brings you to these parts?

OPS Brehgorn says:
:: Follows XO to sickbay ::

Host XO Kelson says:
:: Enters sickbay ::

Host CO Royce says:
:: Serious ::   CTO:  You know very well what brings me here.

CTO Wakefield says:
:: Offers her is right arm for inspection::  CO:  That's the second time this arm has been hit in combat.

Host CO Royce says:
:: Sees Sam ::  XO:  Your report?

Host XO Kelson says:
CO: Captain.  I felt we needed to get out of harms way.  It was my call.

FCO Lane says:
:: waits for the tactical officer to answer ::

Host CO Royce says:
<Brooks> CTO:  I'll take a look at that, sir

Host AGM Selan says:
<Lt. Jg. at TAC> FCO: No hostiles on sensors, ma'am.

Host CO Royce says:
:: Nods ::   XO:  Understood…any chance of a peaceful settlement?

Host XO Kelson says:
CO: We tried several different angles to get them to trust us but they are so far gone that they believe nothing.

FCO Lane says:
TAC: Thank you Lt.

OPS Brehgorn says:
:: Smirks at the thought ::

Host XO Kelson says:
CO: Frankly, Ma'am...I'm out of ideas.

Host CO Royce says:
:: Nods ::  XO:  Well, other than this planet, I guess I'll have to wait for Sciences report

CTO Wakefield says:
CO/XO:  What about Uncle Sam?

Host CO Royce says:
:: Looks to CTO:   XO:  Uncle Sam?

Host XO Kelson says:
CTO: I'm no uncle...

OPS Brehgorn says:
CO/XO: Something is messing with those Terran’s...I recommend we try to find out just who is responsible.

CTO Wakefield says:
XO/CO:  Uncle Sam was the epitome of America.  If we sent someone down there dressed like him, it may work...

Host CO Royce says:
All: That's a thought.  We could try it next time.

Host XO Kelson says:
OPS: I agree with Brehgorn.  We need to locate the cause of the Terran’s problems.

FCO Lane says:
:: Settles back in the Captain's chair and sighs::   Self: Quite comfy.

Host CO Royce says:
XO:  That's what we'll do then.

CTO Wakefield says:
:: Nods ::

Host XO Kelson says:
OPS: If we could show we are on the same side then we could convince them to trust us.

Host CO Royce says:
XO:  And Sam, there is a gift for you next to my chair on the bridge.   :: whispers :: for your birthday.

Host XO Kelson says:
:: Surprised ::
