CO_Kalla says: 
@::Looks at the table.:: President: You know our customs well I see.

CSO_Sketek says: 
@::Walks to the table::

FCO_Durron says: 
Civ: channel open sir.

CIV_Deimon says: 
COMM; Pericles: This Lt. Cmdr. Wes Deimon, in command of the U.S.S. Andromeda, please identify yourself

XO_Miller says: 
$::the systems come back online and sensors detect the Andromeda::

Nanite_President says: 
Captain: We have just recently begun to explore your universe and have gathered a great deal of information on your culture, please sit down

CTO_Senek says: 
@::Takes a chair and sits down::

CTO_Senek says: 
@::Listens to the president, eager to know more about the nanite culture::

FCO_Durron says: 
::looks at the scans and mutters to himself than decides to wait untill the shuttle craft thing is resolved to report it and checks up on the cattolog of anomolies::

Nanite_President says: 
Captain: Please do not reveal  to anyone , even to your superiors what we are about to discuss, it involves information regarding the principle of the Prime Directive since we are more technologically advanced then your society but this information needs to be disclosed

CO_Kalla says: 
@::Sits down and takes an apple-like thing.::

CNS_Jordain says: 
@::waits untill everyone sits down and then sits down himself::

FCO_Durron says: 
::listens than makes sure that the channel is infact open::

XO_Miller says: 
$COMM: Andromeda:  This is Cmdr. Miller, request permission to dock.

CO_Kalla says: 
@::Raises an eyebrow but keeps quiet.::

Nanite_President says: 
Captain: Please respect our wishes because it involves the safety and survival of your universe

CTO_Senek says: 
@::Glances quickly at CO, then turns to the president again::

FCO_Durron says: 
::glances at the Civ::

Nanite_President says: 
Action: The President activates the holographic projector

CIV_Deimon says: 
COMM: Cmdr Miller: Permission granted

CIV_Deimon says: 
COMM:Cmdr. Miller: And welcome back

Nanite_President says: 
All: Let us review the natural evolution of spacefaring propulsion common to all spacegoing worlds...

CNS_Jordain says: 
@::looks at the CTO and then to the Captain::

XO_Miller says: 
$COMM:  Andromeda:  Acknowledged.  And thank you.  I'll see you on the bridge when I get there.

FCO_Durron says: 
::taps in the commands to begin shuttlecraft docking procedure::

CO_Kalla says: 
@::Vulcan poker face in place, Kalla looks at the projected image.::

XO_Miller says: 
$::sees the SB doors open and he brings the Pericles in and docks::

CNS_Jordain says: 
@::takes something to drink from the table::

FCO_Durron says: 
::notes the fact that the shuttle craft is docked and closes the Shuttlebay doors::

XO_Miller says: 
::grabs his belongings and heads out of the SB toward the TL::

FCO_Durron says: 
Civ: the shuttlecraft has docked sir.

Nanite_President says: 
All: The first step common to all worlds is the development of the liquid oxygen powered rocket, allowing the achievement of planetary orbit, followed approximately after 5-10 generationa later, assuming no disasters, by the hydrogen fusion-powered main impulse engine allowing solar exploration ::pauses for questions::

CTO_Senek says: 
@::Takes a fruit of some kind from the table and keeps listening::

FCO_Durron says: 
Civ: I have compleated the scans of the areas of wildlife on the planet sir.

CNS_Jordain says: 
@::makes notes on his padd::

XO_Miller says: 
::enters the TL and requests the bridge.  Thinks to himself that it's good to be back::

CIV_Deimon says: 
::is still searching through media from the planet for anything on the Red Gemini::

CO_Kalla says: 
@::Nods at the President.::

CIV_Deimon says: 
FCO:Understood, anything especially interesting?

FCO_Durron says: 
Civ: from what I can tell it appears to consist of some organic beings quite similer to earth wildlife and some mechanical wildlife that appear to have developed along the same lines as the nanites.  all of these are nanite size. sir.

XO_Miller says: 
::The TL doors open and he takes in the view of the bridge before stepping off::

Nanite_President says: 
::continues:: As you know, the next advancement in the natural development of a society , some 5-20 generations later, is the matter antimatter warp engine allowing travel, contact and commerce with other species.  This is a major turning point for a world due to the political , philosophic and theological implications, when the planet <more>

CIV_Deimon says: 
FCO:The same size? Then I'll bet the nanites were srpung by a human like nanite size race who died out milinea ago

CTO_Senek says: 
@::Wonders what this presentation has to do with the current situation, but keeps quiet::

Nanite_President says: 
All: discovers they are not the center of the universe, it is a dangerous time, marked sometimes by political social and violent upheval

XO_Miller says: 
CIV/FCO:  Good to see you two again.  Can anyone tell me what happened to bring my shuttle here?

Nanite_President says: 
All: Some 20 generations later or even thirty, if the society survives warp drive, they discover the wormhole drive which gives access to all parts of the universe...

CIV_Deimon says: 
::turns to see the XO and stands from the captain's chair:: XO:I have a feeling it was the same thing that brought us here

CIV_Deimon says: 
XO:That's about as good an explanation as I can give

FCO_Durron says: 
::glances to the Civ than at the XO::XO: good to have you back sir.

Nanite_President says: 
Action: The schematics and picture of a wormhole drive appear on the screen

XO_Miller says: 
CIV:  So I take it, the phenomenon has not been identified?  What about the CO and the rest of the crew....where are they now?

CO_Kalla says: 
@::That's a novelty. Kalla's eyebrow shotts up again.::

XO_Miller says: 
FCO:  Thank you.  It's good to be back.

CNS_Jordain says: 
@::is still making notes of everything the President says::

Nanite_President says: 
All: The wormhole drive discovery allows a ship to create a stable wormhole, and again this discovery has very serious social implications

CIV_Deimon says: 
XO: They're about a billionth of the size they normally are, down on the planet's surface

FCO_Durron says: 
::assures himself that he is recording the meeting than continues on with what he was doing::

XO_Miller says: 
CIV:  They're not in danger, are they?

CIV_Deimon says: 
::rather distracted turn from the XO and looks at the wormhole drive schematics:: FCO:Did you get the recorded?

Nanite_President says: 
All: Finally, if a society has survived, barring major disaster, the natural evolution takes them to what we have just achieved, most of our people are unaware of its existence , I'd say 99 percent....the Interdimensional Jump Drive

FCO_Durron says: 
Civ: isn't thair something about recording all first contact situations sir? ::Grins::

CIV_Deimon says: 
FCO:Good work :;smiles and turns back to the XO::

Nanite_President says: 
Action: A schematic appears of an interdimensional jump drive

XO_Miller says: 
::walks over to the command chair, sits down and brings up all the information that has happened since arriving here::

CIV_Deimon says: 
FCO:Make sure you get these schematics as well

Nanite_President says: 
Aloud: Lights

CNS_Jordain says: 
@::stops making notes and looks at the Nanite President::

CTO_Senek says: 
@::Expects something to happen::

CIV_Deimon says: 
XO:As I was about to say, they don't seem to be in danger right now, but I believe they could be in a large amount of danger since the nanites seem to have some dealing with the Red Gemeni, who you may remember as an Orion Syndicate faction from our universe

CO_Kalla says: 
@President. Yes, your people have really developed something very advanced by our standards.

Nanite_President says: 
Captain: A criminal faction know as the Red Gemini has stolen one of our Interdimensional Drives and is attempting to form an alliance in your universe with a race known as the Borg

FCO_Durron says: 
::looks at the computer and mutters something:: Civ: no luck sir.  somehow we can't copy the schematics Sir.  the nanites probably did something about that.

CTO_Senek says: 
@Self: Uh oh.

XO_Miller says: 
CIV:  Well I see you've been keeping an excellent eye out for them.  Nice work so far.

CO_Kalla says: 
@::Looks pointedly at Senek.::

CIV_Deimon says: 
XO:Well.... there's our Red Gemini explanation...

CNS_Jordain says: 
@::looks at the captain and the CTO:: Self: Don't tell me

Nanite_President says: 
Captain: It is only the grave possiblity of universal genocide that we have stepped in

FCO_Durron says: 
::has been listining and dosn't think he likes that idea::

CO_Kalla says: 
@President: The Borg. Yes, the Federation have had their ... problems with them.

CTO_Senek says: 
@::Looks at CO with an apology in his eyes::

XO_Miller says: 
::hears the term Borg and looks up::

Nanite_President says: 
Captain: Our intelligence officers believes that the nanites will offer the drive to the Borg and will then secretly attempt to assimilate .....them

XO_Miller says: 
CIV/FCO:  That certainly doesn't sound good to me.

CO_Kalla says: 
@::Thinks.:: President: I can understand why you may want to keep this secret, but you cannot expect me to risk my ship and crew without informing my supriors.

Nanite_President says: 
Captain: If you do, we cannot help you

Nanite_President says: 
Captain: The risk of evolutionary contamination is too grate

XO_Miller says: 
CIV:  Have these people given us any useful information on the Red Gemini?

CNS_Jordain says: 
@::looks at the captain, telling with his eyes that he wants to say here something::

CO_Kalla says: 
@President: Will you allow me to confer with my officers for a minute in private?

CIV_Deimon says: 
XO:None, everything we've found has been classified, and I havn't yet been able to request all thier files on the Red Gemeni

FCO_Durron says: 
::looks at the list of anomolies and dosn't know what he is looking for and saves the catolog and sends it to the CSO's station::

Nanite_President says: 
Captain: Absolutely you will have privacy ::turns off all listening devices and leaves::

CNS_Jordain says: 
@::watches the president leave the room::

XO_Miller says: 
CIV:  And I take it the Captain hasn't had any luck either.

CO_Kalla says: 
@::Looks around and then focuses on CNS.:: CNS: What was your impression of him?

FCO_Durron says: 
::grins and wonders how the CO will respond to finding the XO aboard::

CIV_Deimon says: 
XO: She just learned of the Red Gemeni, I contacted her earlier and she told me to wait, and I've yet to inform her of the Red Gemeni problem, but now she knows anyway

XO_Miller says: 
CIV:  Understood.  Hopefully she can convince them to give us something to go by.

FCO_Durron says: 
::looks at his console and begins checks on almost everything ::

CNS_Jordain says: 
@CO: at this moment I don't know what to think, the technologie and the borg. But on the other hand he could be lying

CO_Kalla says: 
@::Nods and looks at CTO and CSO.:: CSO, CTO: Gentlemen, your opinion.

CSO_Sketek says: 
@CO: He doesn't have a good motive to lie. And the technological part sounds correct.

CTO_Senek says: 
@CO: I can't say anything about the plausibility of the breakthroughs he described, but if he is telling us the truth, we will be having hard time with the Borg in the future.

XO_Miller says: 
FCO:  Ray, you might want to download the information that was obtained on the shuttlecraft.  Perhaps there's something there that could be of use from when I was transported here.

CNS_Jordain says: 
@CO: Ma'am, if i may add something.

CO_Kalla says: 
@CNS: OF course.

CNS_Jordain says: 
@CO: We can hear him about and maybe find out more about this.

FCO_Durron says: 
XO: aye sir. ::begins download::

CO_Kalla says: 
@::Stands up and walks to a side table, where a jug of water stands, Kalla pours a glass, but remains silent for a time.::

CO_Kalla says: 
@::After a while she rasis her shoulders again, as if she has made up her mind she turns around to face the view screen in the conference room ... and pauses.::

FCO_Durron says: 
::looks at the recordings from both the Andromeda and the Pericles side by side and can not make heads nor tails of it::

XO_Miller says: 
::watches and listens to the AT, making sure he doesn't interfere or interrupt::

CO_Kalla says: 
@::On the screen she sees the bridge of the Andromeda...:: XO: Commander, you are back.

XO_Miller says: 
CO:  Yes Captain.  Still receiving briefings as to our current situation.  Are you okay down there?

FCO_Durron says: 
Civ: I can't make sence of this. would you look at it sir?

CO_Kalla says: 
@XO: How unexpected at this location. But certainly good to have you back. I assume you have been following our discussions.

CIV_Deimon says: 
FCO: Okay ::walks down to the FCO and looks at his panel::

FCO_Durron says: 
::points to the logs from the Andromeda and the Pericles::

XO_Miller says: 
CO:  Yes Captain.  Not sure I like the mention of the Borg.

CNS_Jordain says: 
@::tries to bring back the face of the president in his mind, searching for something of an emotional expression::

FCO_Durron says: 
Civ:Science isn't my field sir. ::grins::

CO_Kalla says: 
@::Looks down at the floor for a minute.:: XO: No, neither do I. I don't see we have much choice, but we are unlikely to be popular with the powers-that-be, if we get the ship destroyed. ::Looks up again with one corner of her mouth twisted slightly upwards.::

CIV_Deimon says: 
FCO: Well, it looks like a controlled wormhole device of some sort, it's almost like they sent a tractor beam through the universal barrier

XO_Miller says: 
CO:  Even you would agree we're not in this for a popularity contest.

FCO_Durron says: 
Civ: thank you sir.::looks at it and still cant figure it out but aggrees with what the Civ said::

CO_Kalla says: 
@::Nods.:: XO: You are of course right. Gentlemen, my mind is made up. Let us get the President again.

CIV_Deimon says: 
CO: If you could get him to release all the classified data we've found that they have on the Red Gemeni, that could be helpful

Nanite_President says: 
Action: The President returns to the room

FCO_Durron says: 
::looks at the viewscreen and suddenly gots one of those lightbulb moments but shuts his mouth as the president enters::

Nanite_President says: 
Captain: Have you come to a decision?

CO_Kalla says: 
@::Goes to the President.:: President: Sir, we will assist you as best we can. And you have my word as a Vulcan that I will do everything in my power to keep the knowledge from anyone in our dimension.

XO_Miller says: 
::listens to the conversation taking place on the viewscreen::

Nanite_President says: 
Captain: Excellent I knew I could trust you.  Let us get down to the military details then

CO_Kalla says: 
@::A line from an old filme suddenly flashes through her mind. - Now look what a fine mess you have gotten us into.::

CTO_Senek says: 
@::Focuses his attention on the president again::

Nanite_President says: 
Action: A larger then usual nanite enters the room in military fatigues, he appears to be specially designed for combat, with enhanced personal targeting optics and jet boots,  He is heavily decorated and appears to be an Admiral of some sort

CNS_Jordain says: 
@::makes some notes on his padd:: Self: the president seems ver concerend and he is also trying to balance his compassion for federation and Nanite Prime Directive.

FCO_Durron says: 
::sighs and puts his idea to the back of his mind and continues to run the system checks even though half of it dosn't make any sence to him but he figgures that the fact that it is green means it is good.::

Nanite_President says: 
<Admiral Starborne> All: Greetings good people, I wish we could have met under better circumstances, as you know this briefing and its contents can never be shared with your leaders or other people

CTO_Senek says: 
@::Nods at the Admiral::

XO_Miller says: 
CIV/FCO:  Well let's hope they give us some useful information here.  ::listens intently::

CNS_Jordain says: 
@::listens to what the Admiral has to say, but listens very carefully to spot some emotions::

FCO_Durron says: 
::listens but continues to do thing on his console::

Nanite_President says: 
<Admiral Starborne> As you know, the Red Gemini have stolen an Interdimensional Jump drive and our mission is to bring them to justice, recover or destroy the ID drive and prevent the tech from contaminating your society's natural evolution

CO_Kalla says: 
@::Remains standing, eating her apple.::

CTO_Senek says: 
@::Starts to wonder why the Nanites had to inform the Starfleet and not take care of thge situation themselves::

CIV_Deimon says: 
::stands on the bridge watching the going abouts, noting every word::

CSO_Sketek says: 
@::Looks at the admiral while not sure what to believe::

FCO_Durron says: 
::suddenly getw worried and begins scaning sorounding space for spacedocks or things of that sort::

CNS_Jordain says: 
@::wonders why they don't do this themselves. Makes notes an wonders what he can find out::

Nanite_President says:
