Summary:

Last week on the Paula Greene, we left our exciting crew investigating the theft and the disappearance of Dr. Nictor. The crew was supposed to deliver medical supplies and Doctor Nictor (Ferengi) to the colony in the Theta Cygni system.

But halfway there the Paula Greene mysteriously dropped out of warp and the entire crew passed out from unknown reasons. After waking 24 hours later, they find out they have been robbed and Dr. Nictor is missing.

That was 1 hour ago. What next?  What will they find out? And most importantly, who is responsible?

And the now the next exciting chapter of “Help is on the way.”

::Sitting at his station.::

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
::On the bridge counting the sheep she sees, blinking a few times from the sleepiness she still feels.::  Self:  One little, two little, three little sheepies ::Yawns.::

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
::On the bridge checking sensors.::

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CSO: Wake up Zip!

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
CEO: So wassup with those Borg nanonytes?

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
FCO: You know how long I have been after Zip?  Since the Academy.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
CO: Some type of nanoprobe.

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
FCO: Check and see if there is a warp trail anywhere and if there is...follow it.

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CO: There is a rapidly fading warp trail ma'am.

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
FCO: Then onward...let's see where it leads us.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
::Shakes her head a bit.::  FCO: Aye, Doctor .. er I mean Captain .. er I mean Tanon.  ::Yawns again.::

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CEO: Sorry lug wrench, I just got it like that. ::Begins following the warp trail.::

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
CMO: Zap Zip with a little something to give her pep...will ya?

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CSO: Do you need some help, Zip?  You're still pretty wiped out.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
CO: The nanites were found through out the ship and at present they are deactivated.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CO:  Yes, I concur with Lt. Sheep .. er. Lt. Salan.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CMO: Yes, please.  I can't seem to shake all this gas they gave me.  ::Chuckles feeling now like it's laughing gas.::

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
CO: They had some how reprogrammed the ship's computer but only key systems to stop at a designated location.

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CO: Aye, Captain.  There's a medikit on the bridge with just the thing for her! ::Goes and gets it and gets out a tricorder and a hypospray.::

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CMO: There's something in the system I am having trouble with.  It looks like these are nanites.  Do you see this?

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
CEO: Any chance of them reactivating again?

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
CO: We are still finding nanites in the air ducts and traces of the sleeping gas has been found in them.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CMO: Whoa!  Careful where you point that thing, Doc!

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CO: The warp trail is leading into the Neethia System, and it’s about two light years from here.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
CSO: Hey Zip, what about dinner tonight?

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
::Runs the tricorder over her to see if there's anything besides residual anesthazine in her system.::

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
CEO: Well gather them up and isolate them.  We may need them for evidence.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
FCO: I am going to get her before you.  ::Grins.::

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
FCO: Follow it at max warp and tell Starfleet what happened.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CEO: I think I need my bed.  I am really tired.  I hope I'm not coming down with something.  I don't want anyone else to catch it.  ::Sighs.::

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
::Looks over at Zip and grins.::

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
CO: They are being gathered now as we speak.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CMO: The nanites appear to be deactivated.

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
CEO/FCO: Keep your hormones in check...both of you. Otherwise I'll have the doc cook up a little extra estrogen for each of you to help cool you down.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
CSO: Zip I just said that.

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CEO: I'll take that action. Since I have already won.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
FCO: Ha.  You don't know Zip like I do.  ::Grins.::

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
::Yawns at the Captain.::  CO: Sorry, Captain.  I don't think you have to worry about giving them a shot of anything.  I'm too tired, and I've got a headache.  ::Chuckles.::

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
::Reads the sensors.:: CSO: That appears to be the case.  Here's a stimulant for you for now. ::Injects her with the hypospray.::

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
::Grins knowingly at the CEO.::

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CSO: You really shouldn't yawn at the captain, Zip.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CMO: Thanks doctor.  ::Waits for the hypo to be injected, trying not to think of the last time she was injected with a hypo.::

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CMO: I can't help it.  ::Frowns.::  Maybe your shot will help me.

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CSO: We can only hope.  Now we have to figure out how those nanites got on the ship.  Can we assume Nictor brought them with him?

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CMO: He's Ferengi isn't he?

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
FCO: ETA until our destination?

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CMO: I don't know how else they would have gotten here.  What bothers me the most is that they appear to be altered Borg nanites.

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
FCO: Yeah, he's Ferengi.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
FCO: I am going to get her from you remember that much.  ::Grins.::

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CSO: Well, then we need to watch the systems.  Even if they've been deactivated, we need to be diligent. Right?

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CEO: What is with you man? She doesn’t like you, doesn't feel that way about you. All you're going to do is embarrass yourself. You should just be happy that she's happy with me!

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CO: 2 days at warp 6, Commander.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CO:  Captain, after studying the ship's systems, I have determined that the cause of the ship's recent security issues may be related to some altered Borg nanites that I have found in the systems.  They are all deactivated, but I need to purge them from the ship's systems.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CMO: Yes, we need to purge them from the system.

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
CSO: Then do it.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
CO: The fact that they were altered Borg nanites gives me the impression that they may have been planted prior to our leaving McKinley or maybe this so called Ferengi did it.  Ya think?

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CSO: Then let's get to it!  How can I help?

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
CEO: Why don't you research that and find out?

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CO/CMO: They were programmed to stop the PG at our last known location.  I am also picking up traces of nanites in the air ducts and traces of sleeping gas as well.  
CMO: If you can work on purging the air ducts, I will work on the computer systems.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
CO: Research what I already know?  Wouldn't it be better for the Security teams to do that?

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CSO: Roger that, Zip. ::Works on purging the air ducts.::

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
CEO: If I wanted security teams to do it I would have said "Have the security teams do it".  I want you to do it.  Find out how they got here.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
::Begins to work on purging the ship's computer systems.::

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CEO: I swear just get a clue.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
CO: Yes ma'am.  ::Thinks.:: Oh by the way ma'am, you look stunning today.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
FCO: Get a clue to what? Zip?  Man, I love that girl.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
::Chuckles at the CEO.::

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
CEO: Uh huh...nice try.

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CEO: The feeling obviously isn't mutual. You're Betazoid right? Shouldn't you have a clue that you're an idiot?

Action: 2 days later and all the nanbots throughout the ship has been cleaned out and nothing else is found.

Action: As the Paula Greene approaches the Neethia system, the trail leads them to the second planet of the Pegasi star.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
::Still fuming about the FCO calling him an idiot.::

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
::Grinning at Zip, thinking about the dinner he had with her the night before.::

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
FCO: Two days ago you called me an idiot?  Let me tell you something youngster I was doing more with women when you were born and I learned more about them in the Academy so there for I am no idiot.

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
::Stretches a bit thinking that this shift seemed like it was at least 2 days long:: All: Report people.  How are we doing?

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CEO: Dense then?

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CSO: I think we got them all, Zip.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
FCO: Of course.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CMO: Confirmed, Doctor.  They are all gone.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
CO: Ma'am all the nanites have been eradicated.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CMO:Thanks for your help on all of that.  ::Smiles at her.::

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
CEO: Good.

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
Out loud: I've seen monkeys at the zoo with more brains when it comes to women.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CO:  I concur with the CEO, Sir.

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
FCO: So where are we? ::Hopes he says Risa.::

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CSO: And the air is clear now, so you should be all right.

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
CSO: Excellent work, Zip...and don't call me 'sir'.

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CO: The Neethia System, 2nd planet.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CO: Yes, Sir .. er .. I mean Ma'am.
.
CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
::Mumbles.:: Self: He is a plain fool if he hasn't figured out that she loves him already.

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
CMO: Doc...want to jump on the communications and give the planet a jingle?  Let's see who and what they are.

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
::Sends a message to the CSO.::

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
::Feels very peppy from all the rest she has been getting and the hypo the CMO gave her 2 days ago.::  CMO:  I don't know what was in that hypo, but wow, do I feel like I can run a marathon.

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
CSO: Zip...find out everything you can about this place.

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
FCO: Bring us into a high orbit around it.

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CO: Why certainly, Captain! ::Smiles and goes over to communications.::

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CO: You got it.

Information: The planet has a hot and humid climate, very thick plant life. (think rain forest). Has 4 small continents, 2 on each pole and 2 more larger continents located on the equator on opposite sides of the planet.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
CSO: Zip anything I should know about this planet like stuff that would screw around with the ships systems?

Information: There is no civilization or any signs of an intelligent race. Only life forms on scans are plant and animal.

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
::Sends another message to the CSO.::

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
COM: Pegasi 2: This is the USS Paula Greene calling the second planet in this system, come in please?

Action: There is no response.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CO: Yes, Captain.  I'm pulling the planetary information up now.  It's an M-class with plant life similar to that of a rain forest on Earth.  There are 4 continents, 2 on each pole and 2 located on the equator on opposite sides of the planet.

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CO: No response Captain.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CO:  Lots of wild life, Sir .. er Ma'am .. er Captain.

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
CMO: Guess no one is home.  Scan the place and see if you can find out where our uninvited guest went.

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
CSO: Scan for any other ships in the area.

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
Out loud: I didn't think the Commander's uniform was that unisex.

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CO: I'm picking up something on initial scans.  Some kind of low level energy reading coming form the center continent on the equator.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
::Messages back to the FCO.::  FCO: I would love to go ice climbing.  Maybe when we get a break from what we're doing, after shift?

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
::Messages back to CSO.:: CSO: I'll bring some ice wine for the summit.

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CO: And now it's gone!  There's a blank area in the location.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
CMO: Low level energy readings?  Like what type?

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CO: Short range scans do not detect any vessels in the area, Captain.

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
CMO: Hmmm...interesting.

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
FCO: Bring our orbit above that spot.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
::Messages back.:: FCO: Sounds like a plan.  I can't wait.  ::Looks his way and winks.::

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
::Eases the bucket of bolts into position.::

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CO: Interesting indeed, Captain.

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
CSO/CMO: Get ready to take a little trip.  We're going to go see what's down there.

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
::Wiggles his antennae at the CSO.::

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CSO: Ohhhh Field trip!

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
::Doesn't like the FCO much at the moment but stays silent for now.::

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CO: Aye, Captain.  I would like to take a security team with us to the surface.  Will we be transporting or taking a shuttle? 
CMO:  Don't you just love those.  Last one to the planet's a rotten egg.

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
CEO/FCO: Think you two can handle things up here?  Or do I need to provide a chaperone?

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CSO: Race you!

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CO: Sure as long as you leave me in charge.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
CO: Ma'am I don't need a chaperone unless you think so.

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
CSO: Shuttle....meet me down there in 15 minutes.  And yeah...we'll take a security team.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
::Shoots a look at the FCO.::

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CO: After all, I am a bridge officer and he's a grunt that belongs in engineering.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
CMO: Hold up there speedy.  What about our dinner date?

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
::Calls for a security team, and then races to the TL, running past the CMO.::  CMO: Gotta get up pretty early in the morning to beat me.  ::Chuckles and winks at the FCO as she passes him.::

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
FCO: And just because of that reason.... ::Turns to the CEO.::

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CEO: Huh?

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
CEO: You have the bridge. ::Gets up and walks to the turbo lift.::

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
FCO: I am not a grunt.

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
::Runs after the CSO.::

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
CO: Understood ma'am.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
CMO: We can discuss this when you come back.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
::Gets up and walks to stand in front of the "Big chair" but does not sit.::

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
::Winks at Zip.:: CSO: Now if the ship blows up, its not on me. ::Grins.::

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
FCO:  If the ship blows up, there ain't going to be much at all of you, my dear.

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CSO: I can beat him to the last escape pod.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
::Heads to the TL, and holds it for the CO and CMO.::

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
::Chuckles at the FCO.::

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
::Enters the turbo lift.:: CSO: Let's go.  I feel like I'm surrounded by a bunch of cadets.  Sheesh.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
::Rolls eyes but stays silent.::

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CO: At least I can get your gender right, commander.

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
::Enters the turbo lift.:: CO: I'm here, Captain!

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
Self: I am going to bop that guy one day.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CO: Yes, Captain.  ::Closes the door just as the FCO makes the comment, sure that the CO heard it.  Then tries not to grin.::

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CEO: Okay, what kind of idiotic orders do you have for me?

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
::Mutters something under her breath as she rides the TL down.::     CSO: In the midst of all that witty conversation...did you remember to order a security team for us?

Action: The Turbo lift whisks them away and stops at the shuttle bay.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CO: Yes I did, Captain.  They should be waiting for us in the shuttle bay.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
FCO: Just maintain geosynchronous orbit over the beam down site.  Nothing idiotic as you so generously put it.

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
::Taps his badge.:: *CSO*: Salan to Piddles. Be careful down there.

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
::Walks out and into the bay.:: CSO: Good...at least your mind wasn't completely over run with hormones.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
FCO: Oh while you are at it you can keep a transporter lock on them too if you would or is that a little....oh never mind.  I will keep a mental lock on them.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
*FCO*: Will do, Tanon.  Take care of things up here, and stay out of trouble.

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
::Looks at the CMO with a fiend pitiful expression:: CMO: Doc....isn't there a shot for all of this?

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
*CSO*: Of course I'll stay out of trouble, and just so you know, I will have a transporter lock on all of you just in case.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
*CSO*: Zip, don't worry. He will be here and in good working order when you get back.  ::Grins.::

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
CO:  Captain, with all due respect, I'm not the one with the hormone problem.  But I'm sure the doc here can give our friends something to help them out.

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
::Walks out with the CO and CSO:: CO: Alas, Captain, there is no shot.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
*FCO*: Very well!  Thanks my dear!

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
*CEO*: Stay out of trouble Joakim.  We don't need any problems while we're gone.

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
*CSO*: Just one of the little things I do to keep my angel safe.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
*CSO*: Don't worry about me just stay safe for your sake and for Tanon's sake, OK?

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
::Sighs:: *CEO/FCO*/CSO: The NEXT person who speaks with fond farewells and other nonsense will be scrubbing the nacelles with a toothbrush.  Is that UNDERSTOOD?

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
::Sighs.::  CO: Yes, Captain.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
*CO*: Understood captain.

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
*CEO/FCO*/CSO: Now all of you shut up and get back to work.  Zip...get your butt in that shuttle...now.

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
*CO*: Sure thing Commander. ::Kills his comm.:: sweetie.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
::Heads into the shuttle bay and notices the security team has arrived and the shuttle is being prepped.  Heads into the shuttle.::  CO:  I'm here Captain.

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CEO: So, you have a date with the doctor?

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
::Gets into the shuttle with the lovesick and somewhat giddy CSO and the CO.::

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
::Starts laughing.:: FCO: You know something Tanon, you kill me.  I know you and Zip are involved so you need not worry about me trying to break you two up.  I can see the love between you two.  Good luck and congratulations.

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
::Falls out of his chair.::

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
FCO: Yeah if she accepts.

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
::Sits down in the shuttle with some more muttering that sounds very much like, "Why me?":: CSO/CMO: Then let's go. Doc...you want to fly?  Give you a little extra practice.

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CO: Thank you, Captain, I'd love to.  ::Gets in the pilot's chair.::

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
::Looks over at the CMO, and then straps herself in "extra tight".::

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
FCO: She looks good and sounds like a nice woman.  I hope she accepts.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
::Takes the co-pilot seat which is on the farther side of where the crabby CO is sitting.::

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CEO: Good luck with her. Just remember if you mess up, she can give you bad things to make you loopy. Might want to monitor your estrogen levels. Too much can kill your sex life.

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
CMO: Then let's go.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
*Engineering*: Run diagnostics every 15 minutes on all systems level 3.

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
CO: Aye Captain.  Beginning prelaunch sequence.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
FCO: Thanks I am sure gonna need it.  But there is a good looking engineer in my department I have had my eye on too.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
::Watches as the CMO begins prelaunch.::

Engineering says:
*CEO*: Understood sir.

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CEO: Just be careful, too many hens in the chicken house can be dangerous.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
::Laughs.:: FCO: Tanon that is what they tell me.

@Action: A little while later the shuttle settles down on the planet surface without a scratch.

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CEO: No hard feelings?

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
FCO: Nah just tell me if they landed ok.

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
@::Turns around and looks at the CSO.:: CSO: See, that wasn't so bad, was it?

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CEO: They did.

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@::Looks around.:: CMO: Nice job, Doc....now I can fire Salon. ::Grins at the CSO and then stands up.::

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
FCO: Great.  Just keep a lock on them and everything will go fine.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
@CMO: You developing a lisp?  ::Looks at the CO and then thinks, she wouldn't .. would she?::

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CEO: I have every kind of lock imaginable on them, including skeletal lock.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
FCO: Good cause I got them on a mental lock.  ::Grins at Tanon and laughs::

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
@CO: The way Salon and Bishara were going at it? I'd say fire them both! ::Chuckles.::

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
@CSO: And no, no lisp, just extra saliva.

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@::Chuckles.:: CMO: Sounds good to me.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
@::Chuckles and then wipes the spray from her talk off her arm.  Then smiles at her.::  CMO:  Okay.

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@::Exits the shuttle.:: CSO: Better brush up on your engineering.  You'll need it.

@Information: All around is very thick growth of various plants and trees. In front of them about 50 yards is a very large single story building. But it cannot be picked up on any scans or what is inside.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
@::Looks at the CO.::  CO:  Captain, you got to be kidding me.  I'm still getting used to tactical!

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CEO: I'd so rather be down there.

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
@::gets out and looks around:: CO/CSO: Nice place.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
@::Pulls out her scanner and begins to scan the area, just as security is doing as well.::

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
FCO: Now that my boy is something I can sense from your emotions.  If I were her boyfriend I would want to be with her too.

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@::Points to the building.:: CMO/CSO: I wonder what they are hiding in there.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
@CO:  There is a large single story building, 50 yards, but scanners are not picking it up or what is inside, Sir. I mean Captain.

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CEO: Not just her I'm worried about though.

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
@CO/CSO: Maybe we should go see?

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
::Sits in the seat next to the captains seat.::

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
FCO: What makes you say that?

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@CMO: Then let's go.

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@CSO: Have one of the guards stay at the shuttle and the rest come with us. ::Starts off in the direction of the building.::

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CEO: It’s just natural to worry about your crewmates when they are on away missions. I know they are trained to handle themselves, but I still worry. A little more with Zip, but I still worry about the CMO and CO as well. Their safety concerns me.

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
@CO: Right behind you, Captain.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
@::Nods to the CO.::  CO: Aye.  :: Orders a security guard to stand watch at the shuttle, and the rest to head to the building but to take lead.::

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
@::Runs along to catch up with the Captain, CMO and Security team which is now leading the way to the building .::

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
FCO: Hate to say it but I do worry more for them than I let on.  This is an unknown planet and even though they have a security detail I would like to know more about this planet before I would let them go down.

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
@CSO: Come on, Zip, we ain't got all day!

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CEO: I may have come across as the typical cocky flyboy pilot, but, I still care. Even if It’s hard to see through all the confidence.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
@CO: Maybe we should let security go first, Captain?  
@CMO: This is one time, when I don't mind your going first, doc.  ::Grins at her.::

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
FCO: I am kinda sounding like an Executive officer that has had captain prerogative thrown in his face.

@Action: As they get within 20 yards of the building, tricorders and Comm badges go dead. Along with anything that has power they are carrying.

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
@CSO: You're all heart!  What's the matter, scared?

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CEO: I might even get a little teary-eyed if something happened to you.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
@CMO:  Who me?  I laugh in the face of danger.  ::Let's out her best Lion King laugh.::

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@CSO: What's the worst that can happen...after all I have my phaser.  ::Pulls it out and watches it go dead.::...  Self: Hmmm...well that's inconvenient.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
@CO:  Uh .. that?

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
@CO:  Would you like me to send one of the security guards back to the shuttle to relay a message to the ship?

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
FCO: Tanon I would shoot myself if I let anything happen to you.

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
@Out loud: What the heck?  CO/CSO: All power to all systems we have is dead.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
FCO: Seems like there is a little excitement down there from what I can sense.

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CEO: I wouldn't go that far, but I guess I would feel really bad.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
@CMO: Yeah, and the phasers don't work either!  ::Looks at her stupidly.::

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
FCO: Try to com them.

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@CSO: Good idea....and tell the ship to stay where they are no matter what.

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
::Taps his badge.:: *CO*: Salan to Commander McGee.

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@CSO/CMO: I think we can handle it between ourselves.  If not...then it won't be the first time I'm wrong.

Action: The FCO gets no response.

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
@CO/CSO: This reminds me of the old west.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
@CO: Aye, Captain.  ::Sends a security officer back to the ship to relay the message to the ship.::  CO: I'll go first, Captain.

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CEO: No response, and I've lost transporter lock.

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
FCO: OH hell.  Want me to try a telepathic link?

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
@CMO:  You take up the Captain's rear?

FCO_Lt_Salan says:
CEO: Do you have to ask?

CEO_Lt_J_Bishara says:
FCO: Yes, cause she is your girlfriend.

CMO_Lt_Traynor says:
@CSO: I'll watch the captain's backside if you like.

CSO_Lt_Piddles says:
@::Chuckles.::

Host CO_Cmdr_McGee says:
@::Blinks and tries to look at her behind.:: CSO: Is it sagging a bit?  I've been trying to work out.
