USS Cherokee 10011.05

Host AGM-Trish says:
The AT has decided to split up to cover more area hunting for the mission CNS.

Host AGM-Trish says:
The Cherokee is using all scans available to try and find the CNS. The unknown cloaked ship is still in position and has not moved.

Host AGM-Trish says:
Continued COM traffic is heard about the Cherokee orbiting M399.

#XO: Aye ma'am

OPS_Lyon says:
@TO: Thanks Trent. Keep them on your scanners at all times.

@OPS: It looks like we are going to have a regular sand storm, Sir.......and it looks like it is intensifying exponentially.

TO_Trent says:
@OPS: Aye sir.

FCO_To`Mach says:
#::banks towards the desert::

Host XO-T`Kerl says:

@COM: Sequoia: Getting weather report for you now.

SO_Praught says:
@OPS: It'll hit the AT's position and........::Looks over at the Shuttles position:: And the Sequoia soon, Sir.....

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#::looking out the window...all I see is sand::

CNS_Siatty says:
Lenora: The colony in general, when they arrived from Earth, were there beings living on the planet yet?

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#COM: Cherokee: Acknowledged.

CMOStarr says:
#::looks over to where the FCO is pointing and agrees::

Lenora says:
CNS: Not that I know of......in that way, I believe we were either the first or among the first........

OPS_Lyon says:
@SO: Thanks. COM: Sequoia: You are heading right for a sandstorm. Proceed with caution.

FCO_To`Mach says:
#XO: Banking left ma'am heading farther in.

@::chuckling to herself:: Self:  Ens Ransom, what are you up to!

FCO_To`Mach says:
#::banks left heads farther in::

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#FCO: Can you get us around it?

SO_Praught says:
@OPS: Sir......this is going to be very dangerous........ they really need to ground the thing from my scans........ this could easily jeopardize the lives of everyone on the shuttle.

FCO_To`Mach says:
#XO: I can try ma'am.

CNS_Siatty says:
Lenora: The flora seems very Terran, was it brought by the colony, make the planet seem like home?

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#FCO: Take us lower if you have to.

Host AGM-Trish says:
ACTION:  The sandstorm is rapidly approaching the runabout from all directions.

SO_Praught says:
@::Fingers running across the panel calling up different scans confirming her information over and over again::

FCO_To`Mach says:
#::Banks back to the right and lowers attitude::

Lenora says:
CNS: I think much of it was here before, but I wouldn't doubt that some of it was brought as well.

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#COM: Cherokee: Can....give....infor....

OPS_Lyon says:
@SO: Understood. COM Sequoia: T'Kerl, Breigh suggests you ground the shuttle, its going to be a bad blow.

FCO_To`Mach says:
#XO: I don't think we are going to make it the winds are picking up fast ma'am.

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#FCO: Take us down.

Mira says:
::Uneasy with some of the questions, she interjects::  CNS:  Auditions for our next production are coming up next week. Les Miserable... I think you'll  make a fine Val Jean.

FCO_To`Mach says:
#XO: Aye ma'am.

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#COM: Cherokee: Can you hear me?

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: You obviously haven't heard me sing.

Host AGM-Trish says:
ACTION:  The sandstorm envelops the Sequoia, all communications are cut, and no scans can detect the runabout.

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#::hears nothing but static playing back on the channel::

OPS_Lyon says:
@::tries to clear the signal:: COM: Sequoia: Say again?

FCO_To`Mach says:
#:: Sets thrusters and start to descend::

Lenora says:
::A little surprised at her friend......wondering why.......but doesn't ask..... just smiles::

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#FCO/CMO: I can't raise the Cherokee.

FCO_To`Mach says:
#::watches altitude::

Mira says:
CNS:  I would be happy to help you. I'm a fine voice coach. I can make anyone sing. ::chuckling::  Just ask Lenora.

SO_Praught says:
@OPS: Sir......I can't find the runabout on my scans.......::Getting rather concerned::

CTO_Arconus says:
::Continues to the last known signal location for the CNS::

FCO_To`Mach says:
#XO: Great.

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: Why the discomfort with these questions? I simply want to understand where we, as a community, came from.

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#COM: Cherokee: Can you hear me?

FCO_To`Mach says:
#::touches down::

OPS_Lyon says:
@::changes settings and tries again:: COM: Sequoia: T'Kerl, come in. Can you hear me? Sequoia, please respond.

Mira says:
CNS:  The history center can answer all your questions. That is what they are there for. Lenora and I are to help you settle in.

FCO_To`Mach says:
#::gets up and start to secure for the storm::

OPS_Lyon says:
@SO: Thanks Breigh, I suspected as much when I lost them on the comm.

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#::adjusting frequencies:: COM: Cherokee: Can you hear me?

TO_Trent says:
@OPS: After searching for underground entrances I sent another reflexive scan checking for heat dissipation. Both scans turned up nothing new.

CMOStarr says:
#::secures the Sequoia from the storm::

SO_Praught says:
@OPS: just wanting to keep you apprised, Sir.

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: That is fine, you just seem...uncomfortable, is something wrong?

OPS_Lyon says:
@COM: CTO: Cherokee to Arconus, come in Irandor.

Lenora says:
::Cocks her head:: CNS: How can you tell she is uncomfortable with the questioning? She didn't display anything abnormal for her.......trust me I know.......we are almost inseparable

Mira says:
CNS:  No not really. I'm sorry if it seems that way. It was a long night last night. The post production party took a lot out of me. I'm basically working on adrenaline.

CTO_Arconus says:
COM: OPS:  Go ahead.

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#::adjusting frequencies:: COM: Cherokee: Can you hear me?

Host AGM-Trish says:
ACTION:  The AT cannot hear the Cherokee hailing them...

OPS_Lyon says:
@TO: Good work, Trent. Keep me informed. SO: Thanks. ::smiles over his shoulder::

FCO_To`Mach says:
#XO: Ma'am could you hit the key to your left?

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#FCO/CMO: I can't raise the Cherokee. ::hits the key indicated by the FCO::

Mira says:
::looks at Lenora, because she was wondering the same thing::

OPS_Lyon says:
@COM: CTO: We've lost contact with the Sequoia, when they entered a sandstorm. See if you can raise them?

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#FCO/CMO: There is nothing but static on all channels.

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: No problem. Lenora: Two reasons. First, I was raised by Merchants, learned early to read body language. Second,...I'm empathic.

FCO_To`Mach says:
#XO/CMO: I guess we sit here then.

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#::nods at the FCO::

CMOStarr says:
#XO/FCO: I guess we wait now for the storm to die down. and continue to try to hail them

Lenora says:
CNS: What do you mean by empathic......she showed absolutely no body language that would have shown her uncomfortability

Mira says:
CNS:  Empathic ? Hmmm, I don't think we have anyone here that is empathic. You will be the first.

CNS_Siatty says:
Lenora: I can read others emotions, it’s a natural ability of Betazoids.

CTO_Arconus says:
COM: OPS:  Rojer, wait one.

Lenora says:
CNS: Oh really? And what other abilities do Betazoids have naturally that we wouldn't know about?

OPS_Lyon says:
@COM: CTO: Cherokee standing by.

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#FCO: How long do you think this will last?

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#::trying to see out the window but seeing nothing::

Mira says:
CNS:  You said you were Betazoid... Is that a Human race ?

FCO_To`Mach says:
#XO: Wish I knew ma'am I wish I knew.

CNS_Siatty says:
::Breathes deep.:: Lenora: Telepathy, if I want, I can read minds, communicate over distance with my mind.

CTO_Arconus says:
COM: XO:  Come in please.

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: No, we appear largely human except for these. ::Points to eyes.::  But we are not.

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#FCO: Shut down all nonessential systems...no need in wasting power now.

OPS_Lyon says:
@::gets up and starts pacing the bridge:: SO/TO: Tell me something that will cheer me up...

Lenora says:
::Leans forward:: CNS: Really? How fascinating.......You'd better be careful what you read though.......it could be considered rude.

FCO_To`Mach says:
#XO: Aye ma'am.

TO_Trent says:
@OPS: All tactical systems are fully operational and standing by.

FCO_To`Mach says:
#::starts shutting down systems::

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#::sits back and rubs temples::

CNS_Siatty says:
Lenora: It is considered rude, that's why I don't use it.

SO_Praught says:
@OPS: Um..... You have the big chair of one of the best ships around........ and you have two wonderful people here to aid you in case of trouble?

Host AGM-Trish says:
ACTION:  The sandstorm is now a maelstrom... slowly covering the runabout, inch by inch.

CTO_Arconus says:
COM:  FCO:  Arconus to FCO acknowledge?

OPS_Lyon says:
@::smiles:: TO/SO: Thanks Trent, Breigh... I needed that.

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#FCO/CMO: Well Rojer knows where we were headed so hopefully he can find us.

FCO_To`Mach says:
#::heads to the back to back shuts down engines.

CMOStarr says:
#FCO:  The storm is getting worse. at this rate the ship will be covered in dust

Mira says:
CNS:  If you’re not from earth, where are you from ? Can you please explain your home ?

Lenora says:
::Suddenly begins to fidget......not feeling comfortable around someone who reads minds.........though she has been truthful.......::

OPS_Lyon says:
@COM: CTO: Any luck?

CTO_Arconus says:
COM:  Cherokee:  I can not raise them. What is their position?

Mira says:
::puts her hand on Lenora's shoulder, letting her know everything will be all right::

FCO_To`Mach says:
#CMO: Dust is the least we have to worry about at this rate it could bury the ship.

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#::notices fine particles of sand entering the shuttle:: FCO/CMO: We have another problem here.

Lenora says:
::Crosses her legs and drinks her coffee::

MO_Santiago says:
@::after finishing her rounds, she goes back to her desk to add to the reports. She does more daydreaming than anything::

SO_Praught says:
@::Watches the sandstorm intensify to one of the biggest storms she's ever seen::

OPS_Lyon says:
@COM: CTO: They were headed out over the desert, quite a distance from you. They entered the sandstorm and if it was downed they might be in quite a bit of danger.

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: I was born on a trading vessel, near the star Regulus. I have a home and a family on the planet Risa. My parents were born on Betazed. The Federation is hundreds of worlds.

FCO_To`Mach says:
#XO: Aye ma'am ::looking at the sand coming in the Sequoia::

Lenora says:
::Sitting listening to the conversation..... not talking much::

Mira says:
CNS:  Hundreds you say. What are they ?

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#FCO/CMO: Grab what you can find and let's see if we can block this stuff any.

TO_Trent says:
@OPS: Shall I prepare a rescue team if needed?

CTO_Arconus says:
COM:  OPS:  Once the sandstorm dies out try a focused scan. If we can't raise them then we'll have to begin another search.

SO_Praught says:
@OPS: Um.......Sir......This storm could easily last 3-4 hours unless conditions change.......we have a ridge of high pressure directly to the south of their position keeping the storm stationary, Sir.

FCO_To`Mach says:
#XO: Aye ma'am grabs the extra clothing on board and places them around the door and vents::

OPS_Lyon says:
@TO: Get them ready, but wait for me to tell you what to do.

CMOStarr says:
#::starts to place the excess cloths around the interior of the ship where the dust is creeping in::

CTO_Arconus says:
::Arrives at the CNS's last signal location and looks around, scanning with tricorder::

OPS_Lyon says:
@COM: CTO: That might be too long, the storm will last more than 3 hours.

TO_Trent says:
@OPS: Understood. ::orders security team to transporter room::

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: I could get you a list from my Tricorder, but they include Earth, Vulcan, Tellar, Andor, Betazed, Trill, many more.

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#::sets emergency beacon::

Mira says:
CNS:  This Risa, can you describe it ?

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#FCO: I have set the emergency beacon...not sure if it will do any good but it is activated for now.

OPS_Lyon says:
@COM: CTO: We can try sending a shuttle down for you to use. By remote.

FCO_To`Mach says:
#XO: Ok ma'am.

Host AGM-Trish says:
ACTION:  A brief blip appears on the TO's screen, but suddenly disappears...

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#::sees that all we can do has been done::

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: It is a paradise, different then New Utopia, more developed. It is a vacation hotspot for the Federation, Klingons, and other friendly worlds.

Mira says:
CNS:  You mean these Klingons who want to take us over ?

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#FCO/CMO: Well it looks like we might be here for a while.

Mira says:
CNS:  They try to take over worlds, but you consider them friendly. Strange......... Can you explain that ?

FCO_To`Mach says:
#XO: Unfortunately ma'am.

Lenora says:
::Gets up to get another cup of coffee::

CTO_Arconus says:
COM: OPS:  We can try but without a signal it's a needle in a haystack. Beam Keats and me back to the cave basecamp. Mr. Targe will continue the search from here.

TO_Trent says:
@OPS: Sir, I think I might have picked up the emergency beacon from the surface.

Mira says:
::sees Lenora getting up::  Lenora:  Can you get me another cup also please ?

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: They are an honorable people. If they knew you were here, they would keep away. If they came here, thinking the world unclaimed and found you, they would think you were "claim jumping", so to speak.

Lenora says:
Mira: Sure.....

OPS_Lyon says:
@TO: Tell me more.

Lenora says:
::heads to the counter and orders herself another cup.......along for another for Mira::

Mira says:
CNS:  Claim jumping, I don't understand ?

OPS_Lyon says:
@COM: CTO: Belay that idea. We still have the other cloaked ship and I'm not dropping shields. We are still at red alert. I'll beam you back. Stand by.

FCO_To`Mach says:
#SEC: See what you can do about fixing some food.

CMOStarr says:
#::gets up and goes to check the food and o2 supplies::

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#CMO: How are our supplies?

FCO_To`Mach says:
#<SEC> FCO: Aye sir.

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: They might think you were trying to slip in ahead of them, steal a world they found for yourselves.

OPS_Lyon says:
@::beams CTO and party back to the base camp::

CMOStarr says:
#XO: I'm checking now. We are good on water and food.. It the O2 that has me worried.

TO_Trent says:
@OPS: Impossible to trace due to the interference from the storm but it definitely came from the desert.

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: They have no way of knowing you were here first. Neither does the Federation.

Mira says:
::looks around her::  CNS:  Well there is not much chance of that happening. We are not easily taken.

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#::tries to get something on communications::

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#CMO: What do you mean?

Mira says:
CNS:  We want to keep it that way.

OPS_Lyon says:
@TO: Give me an approximate location, if you can.

CTO_Arconus says:
*Mr. Targe*  Try that stand of trees to the North East. Keep me informed. Out.

Lenora says:
::Returns with two cups of coffee and sets Mira's in front of her::

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: I get that impression, but I still would like to help avoid a war.

Mira says:
::looks up and smiles:: Lenora:  Thanks.

Mira says:
CNS:  There is nothing to avoid. They can't have a war with people they cannot find.

TO_Trent says:
@OPS: Not at this time, however I will continue to scan the area.

Lenora says:
::smiles:: Mira: Not a problem......CNS: How rude of me.......I should have asked if you wanted another cup.

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira/ Lenora: Is there anything else you would like to know about the Galaxy outside the shield?

OPS_Lyon says:
@TO: Understood.

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#FCO: How much damage do you think this storm is going to do to the shuttle?

Mira says:
::thinks::  CNS:  How big is your starship. Is it like our city ?

CNS_Siatty says:
Lenora: No thanks, I'm set with this one.

CTO_Arconus says:
COM:  Cherokee:  We now need extreme heat gear. Beam that down and once we're set send us to the area where you lost contact.

Lenora says:
CNS: okay then......thought I should offer. ::Sits down and takes a nice slow sip of the coffee::

Mira says:
::getting a mischievous grin::  CNS:  I have this friend who would absolutely adore you!

FCO_To`Mach says:
#XO: That I really can't tell you. Most of it is going to be cleaning the sand out of the systems though.

OPS_Lyon says:
@COM: CTO: I have confirmation that they went down over the desert. I'll send you the equipment ASAP.

SO_Praught says:
@::Puts her elbows on her terminal and rests her head on her hands sighing heavily.......rather worried.::

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: Its fairly small by today’s standards, holds around 450-500 people. We are explorers, searching out the unknown.

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#FCO: Great and we just got her back in flying condition.

CMOStarr says:
#XO:  We normally have 5 hours worth of air in emergencies

CTO_Arconus says:
COM:  OPS:  Right. Any signal from them since?

TO_Trent says:
@SO: Problem?

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#CMO: Well let's hope this storm doesn't last longer than that.

Mira says:
::not interested in the ship any longer:: CNS:  Patty will just love you! To make it even better, she is between boyfriends.

SO_Praught says:
@TO: Not that you'd understand.....

OPS_Lyon says:
@::has his staff get the equipment ready::  @COM: CTO: No, and I can only send you the equipment. I don't want to drop the shields too long.

TO_Trent says:
@SO: Is that so. Well I did not mean to pry.

CTO_Arconus says:
COM:  OPS:  Understood. It'll take me 3 hours to reach their last location.

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: Between boyfriends? Uh, I'm going to need some more time to adjust first. I still feel married, even if I can't sense her anymore.

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#::tries the COM again but only gets static::

Mira says:
CNS:  Your married ?

CMOStarr says:
#XO/FCO:  but since nothing can be ran on the runabout due to this dust we have maybe 2 pushing 3.

FCO_To`Mach says:
#::looks out window sees sand creeping up the hull::

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: Yes, to a human to be exact. Have a 3-year-old son as well.

OPS_Lyon says:
@COM: CTO: Understood. The sandstorm should have dissipated by then. Stand by for transport. ::drops shields and beams equipment, checking for piggyback signals::

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#CMO: What about in the emergency supply kits. If need be can we use those?

SO_Praught says:
@TO: You weren't prying, Trent. I just don't think you will understand my dilemma.

Host AGM-Trish says:
ACTION:  When the Cherokee lowers her shields, the unknown ship moves in closer in the system, then stops.

OPS_Lyon says:
@::raises shields again::

Mira says:
::frowns::  CNS:  IT will be a shame for them to think you are dead.... I wish we could change that, but we can't.

TO_Trent says:
@OPS: We have movement on the cloaked ship.

OPS_Lyon says:
@TO: How much closer?

CTO_Arconus says:
::grumbles to himself as he changes equipment yet again::

CMOStarr says:
#XO: That's counting the emergency supply kits T'Kerl

TO_Trent says:
@OPS: It has moved closer to our position and then stopped.

Mira says:
::thinking:: CNS:  Maybe Patty is the answer....

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: Of course. We have to deal with life as it comes. ::Looks around.:: Would you mind going for a walk? There is much of the town I need to see.

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#::nods at the CMO:: FCO/CMO: Well then I suggest we limit movement to conserve what we have.

OPS_Lyon says:
@::sets up a repeating signal to the Sequoia, stating that a rescue team is on their way.::  TO: Understood. Keep me informed.

Lenora says:
::Sets her coffee down again......looks around for her napkin and wipes her mouth.......deep in thought::

Mira says:
::shrugs:: CNS:  Sure, if that is what you want. As I said Lenora and I are here to make your transition more comfortable.

CTO_Arconus says:
Keats:  Well just don't stand there get your gear on. We have a long run ahead of us. It'll keep you warm till we clear the snow zone.

Mira says:
Lenora:  Are you going to come ?

Lenora says:
Mira: No.....if you don't mind, I'll stay here or go home.

FCO_To`Mach says:
#CMO: Doctor is it true that a person uses less O2 when they are a sleep?

TO_Trent says:
@OPS: It has moved a thousand kilometers closer to our location.

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: It’s just that planet bound I have a terrible sense of direction, need to see things several times.

Mira says:
Lenora:  Ok, as you wish. I'll see you tonight at my sisters...  ::gets up and begins to move away::

Lenora says:
::Waves to Mira and the CNS::

OPS_Lyon says:
@::sighs:: TO: Thanks. If I ask you to drop shields again, please make sure I know what I'm doing?

Mira says:
CNS:  We can look as often as you wish.

CNS_Siatty says:
Lenora: See you later.

Lenora says:
CNS: Good bye

CMOStarr says:
#FCO: Yes it is true

MO_Santiago says:
@::Pulls out some medical literature and begins to read, engrossed with what she is reading::

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#CMO: I suggest you give To'Mach something to make him sleep and a mind meld for us.

Mira says:
CNS:  Where do you want to go first.

CTO_Arconus says:
COM:  Cherokee:  We're heading out now.

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#CMO: I also suggest giving the Security folks something to make them sleep also.

CMOStarr says:
#XO:  I was already thinking that and getting the drug out. the mind meld will only help for awhile T'Kerl.

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: How about Park? I assume they exist, right?

OPS_Lyon says:
@COM: CTO: Understood. I'll keep a lock on you.

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#CMO: I know...but I want to be able to shake out of this quickly.

TO_Trent says:
@OPS: Aye. I will keep you informed. SO: Are you sure I can't be of any help?

SO_Praught says:
@::reading the new scans........ the storm at least isn't strengthening anymore::

Mira says:
CNS:  We have many fine parks. OOOoooooooooooo we have one modeled after a famous park on earth, its called Disney Land. That is where we will go!

OPS_Lyon says:
@::starts pacing the bridge again::

SO_Praught says:
@TO: No.......you find out a situation and you can take action about it......sometimes I feel all I do is bring bad news that I can do nothing about........ that's why I don't think you can quite understand my point of view.

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: Then as they say on Earth, even today, "I'm going to Disney Land!"

CTO_Arconus says:
::heads out at a jog with Keats in tow::

CMOStarr says:
#XO/FCO: I’m going to put the rest of the crew into induced coma then we can meld for a while. but when the o2 gets to low. I'll put us into sleeper state as well

Mira says:
::giggles:: CNS:  Then lets go! ::grabbing his hand she leads him to the nearest transport. Climbing aboard she finds them a seat::  So you have heard of this Disney Land ?\

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: Is New Utopia the name of the entire settlement, or just this town in particular?

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#CMO: That is fine...but I want to remain close to conscious for awhile yet.

TO_Trent says:
@SO: Perhaps you are worrying yourself over situations that are out of your control. I am sure if you do your best it will work out.

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: Still exists today, although I guess it’s a far cry from what it was when your ancestors left.

SO_Praught says:
@::Sighs and shakes her head:: TO: Like I said......I don't think you quite understand being a TO.

Mira says:
CNS:  It’s the name of our settlement. Our town is Acqua....

Mira says:
CNS:  Well you haven't seen our version. ::grins::

OPS_Lyon says:
@::stops by the replicator for a brief moment and gets some strong coffee and starts pacing again.:: SO: How long before the storm clears?

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: Not yet. ::Smiles back.::

Host AGM-Trish says:
ACTION:  The FCO and security aboard the Sequoia go to sleep and the XO and CMO begin the mind melding process.

TO_Trent says:
@SO: It's a science thing eh? ::smiling::

SO_Praught says:
@OPS: Sir..... it really looks like it's still going strong.......I'd say close to 3 hours at least.

Mira says:
CNS:  So where would you want to go first ?

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#::watches as all go to sleep and prepares for the mind meld::

SO_Praught says:
@TO: Isn't it? You can't tell me you feel that way at TAC, now do you?

OPS_Lyon says:
@SO: Thanks Breigh, I was hoping that it would clear sooner.

Host AGM-Trish says:
ACTION:  The CTO and one security person take off at double time for the coordinates of the desert.

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: I really don't know, some high G rides would be great.

SO_Praught says:
@OPS: I wish, Sir.......it's rather frustrating.

Mira says:
::grins:: CNS:  We got a space ride that will knock your socks off, literally.

TO_Trent says:
@SO: I am just doing the best I can. I don't have time to worry.

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: I don't know, my socks are pretty tight.

SO_Praught says:
@TO: That wasn't quite what I meant, Trent.

OPS_Lyon says:
@::stops pacing and wishes he can interrupt the CO, but sits in the command chair instead and glares at the viewscreen::

Mira says:
::mischievous grin::  CNS:  We shall see.... ::comes to a realization::  You know, we never asked what you like being called ?

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#~~~~CMO: How easy will it be to wake everyone?~~~~

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: Tach is what my friends call me.

Mira says:
CNS:  Ok, Tach it is then. I hope we can become friends.

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: You said before I'm the first empath. You also said before "most newcomers" are human. What other non-humans have you had join you?

CMOStarr says:
#~~~~XO: Quite easy. I'll just have to give them the reversal drug. how go the wedding plans? ~~~~

Host AGM-Trish says:
ACTION:  The Disney world of the 1990's is entirely different from the one that Tach knew in his time.

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#~~~~CMO: They are going well. It is going to be interesting mixing the Vulcan and Klingon rituals into one ceremony.~~~~

TO_Trent says:
@SO: Maybe I don't understand. Would you care to enlighten me?

Mira says:
::ignoring his question:: CNS:  Tach, there it is... Doesn't it look great! ::is excited, stands up and heads for the door of the transport::

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: I hope so, friends are important. Self: Even the ones out of contact.

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#::can still hear the storm raging outside the shuttle::

CMOStarr says:
#~~~~XO: ::giggles:: I'm quite sure it is. but I am happy for you both although I may not show it. things have been pretty hectic lately.~~~~

OPS_Lyon says:
@::checks some reports and issues some orders regarding them:: COM: CTO: How far are you from the Sequoia's last known location?

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: Incredible. Growing up on a space ship, the use of space seems incredible to me.

Host AGM-Trish says:
ACTION:  The runabout is 1/4 covered. The storm seems to have centered over the craft, not moving, still very intense.

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#~~~~CMO: Michaela they are hectic for all of us. And with the CNS missing now.~~~~

Mira says:
::Grabbing his hand she pulls him off the transport::  CNS:  Lets get going!

CTO_Arconus says:
COM:  OPS:  Still about 2 hours 40 minutes unless you can dispatch another shuttle or beam us closer.

SO_Praught says:
@TO:  Do you ever feel like you see a situation and you have to inform someone of that negative situation, but you are helpless to do anything to fix the situation?

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: After you.

Mira says:
::drags him to the gates of Disney Land::

TO_Trent says:
@SO: Yes. Especially now.

CNS_Siatty says:
::Looks at the crowds, trying to see other non-humans.::

OPS_Lyon says:
@COM: CTO: I wish I could, but that cloaked ship moved closer last time I dropped shields, I can't risk that again. I'll try and be patient.

CMOStarr says:
#~~~~XO:  T'Kerl so true. In some ways I envious of you and To’Mach. But I am still excited for you as well.~~~~

Mira says:
::heads for the space simulator::

SO_Praught says:
@TO: Well that's how I feel most of the time..... I can report bad news, but there is nothing I can do to fix it.......At least at Tactical you have means by which to handle situations....I just sit here and scan......I never knew it could feel so.........so.......futile.

CMOStarr says:
#::keeps a subconscious check on the O2 levels in the ship::

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#~~~~CMO: Thank you Michaela. He fills the place that Syrak once filled.~~~~

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: This place is incredible! How long did it take to build this thing?

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#~~~~CMO: How are the O2 levels?~~~~

OPS_Lyon says:
@::listens with half an ear at the conversation between the TO & SO::

TO_Trent says:
@SO: But, you help everyone by monitoring sensors and helping find things that are overlooked. Plus you also are better suited to interpret the data.

CTO_Arconus says:
COM: OPS:  Interesting. I think you should break orbit and move towards them and see what happens. Let them know that we know they are there.

Mira says:
::Grinning from ear to ear:: CNS:  Isn't it though. Many years it took. Do you know what it takes to keep enhanced beings amused ?

CMOStarr says:
#~~~~XO: T'Kerl.. I know.. Someday I'll find the one to replace Pauls as well. Getting lower about another 2 hours worth. At 45 minutes left I'll put us into a coma as well.~~~~

Host AGM-Trish says:
ACTION:  The FCO lets out one long snore... suddenly his eyes open, but he doesn't see anything, but begins to speak in Klingon.

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: Honestly, I never even thought about it.

OPS_Lyon says:
@COM: CTO: At the moment we have the element of surprise, that they don't know we know they are here... I don't want to lose that.

SO_Praught says:
@::Shrugs:: TO: Maybe..... but there are times I feel rather useless........ maybe I should start cross training or something.

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#~~~~CMO: Negative on the coma. We need to be somewhat alert if anyway possible.~~~~

CTO_Arconus says:
COM: OPS:  True but it does not gain us anything either. Your decision of course. I'm going to pick up the pace a bit down here.

FCO_To`Mach says:
::talking in sleep in Klingon:: Coward coming in like this they need to die.

CMOStarr says:
#~~~~XO:  very well, I'll keep us awake until the last possible minute, then no arguments. hmmm To’Mach speaking klingon?~~~~

TO_Trent says:
@SO: Perhaps, just remember to stick with what you know. If you are better suited to be a SO you should be.

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#::hears the FCO talking in his sleep::

OPS_Lyon says:
@COM: CTO: Understood. Save your breath for the little trip.

Mira says:
CNS:  I'll tell you, it takes a lot. Inactivity is something we fight. We strive year after year to keep our people interested and amused. Idle hands they say. We us that could be dangerous. Just because we gave up the ways of Khan doesn't mean we cannot revert back to them. ::arrives at the simulator.::  Shall we...

SO_Praught says:
@TO: But knowing things about other fields is good too, don't you think?

Mira says:
::indicates for him to climb aboard.::

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: What sort of games do you play here, Poker, Roulette, Kal-tow, Dom Jom?

CNS_Siatty says:
::Enters simulator.::

TO_Trent says:
@SO: Yes, very much so. I was a shuttle pilot in the academy.

Mira says:
CNS:   Hmmmm I know poker but that is it. No, we try for high excitement games or strategy games. Have you head of the game Risk ?

SO_Praught says:
@TO: Really? You wouldn't want me piloting a shuttle, but my combat skills aren't that bad......they need some brushing up on though.

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#~~~~CMO: Can you sense anyone else besides us. I am unable to.~~~~

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: Risk? No, I don't believe so. Kal-tow is a great strategy game, ever hear of it?

Host AGM-Trish says:
ACTION:  The unknown ship is trying to sneak closer... using thrusters...its movement, barely perceptible.

CMOStarr says:
#~~~~XO: outside this ship I can only sense the weather and us.~~~~

TO_Trent says:
@SO: Well, if you ever want some Tactical training, I would be willing to assist you.

OPS_Lyon says:
@::breaks out of his pre-occupation.:: TO/SO: I couldn't help overhearing, and well... Trent, if you want to, you can show Breigh some stuff...  you know, start the cross training a bit. You should know this is the third position I've held on this ship.

Mira says:
CNS:  No I haven't. Maybe you can teach us. We will teach you Risk. We have modified the game a bit.

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#~~~~CMO: That is all I sense as well.~~~~

TO_Trent says:
@OPS: Our cloaked friend is moving again. Barely however.

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: I look forward to seeing your game. I'll have to try to fabricate one of mine from memory.

SO_Praught says:
@::Grins a little:: TO: I think I might like that sometime.....

OPS_Lyon says:
@TO: Keep me posted, and think of some contingency plans, will you? Both of you. ::includes Breigh in his look::

Mira says:
::looks at him and winks:: CNS: If you need any help, I'm here. ::looks at him thoughtfully::

CNS_Siatty says:

TO_Trent says:
@OPS: Aye.

SO_Praught says:
@::Nods:: OPS: I don't know what I can do, but I can certainly try, Sir.

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: I'll do that.

Host AGM-Trish says:
ACTION:  The ship is now using 1/2 thrusters.

Mira says:
::looking away she takes his hand and braces herself for the ride::

OPS_Lyon says:
@TO: Change of plans. Bring weapons to full and we're going to challenge them after all.

TO_Trent says:
@OPS: The ship is moving at 1/2 thrusters.

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: How are your...Wheeee! ::Ride goes into its moves.::

FCO_To`Mach says:
::secret chamber hidden inside the house::

Mira says:
::screams::

OPS_Lyon says:
@O'Guinn: Bring us about, facing the cloaked ship.

TO_Trent says:
@OPS: Sir, we would not want to let them know that we know they are here do you?

OPS_Lyon says:
@TO: Just do what I say, I've decided to call their bluff.

FCO_To`Mach says:
@<O'Guinn> OPS: Aye sir. ::bring ship about::

SO_Praught says:
@::Listening to OPS wondering what's going to happen::

TO_Trent says:
@OPS: Aye, weapons at full.

Host AGM-Trish says:

OPS_Lyon says:
@O'Guinn: Thanks. TO: Their status?

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#~~~~CMO: I wonder if the Cherokee knows where we are?~~~~

FCO_To`Mach says:

SO_Praught says:
@::Monitoring the ship as well to see if she can put any input in::

TO_Trent says:
@OPS: They appear to have lost all power sir.

Mira says:

OPS_Lyon says:
@TO: Lost all power? Or just dead stop?

CTO_Arconus says:
::Runs down the slope of a hill::

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
#~~~~CMO: This sand is in everything...not sure anything will work now.~~~~

OPS_Lyon says:
@COM: CTO: Understood. Keep me up to date, please?

Host AGM-Trish says:
ACTION:  The storm begins to move slowly away from the Sequoia.

OPS_Lyon says:
@COM: CTO: Good news for you. The storm is moving again, very slowly, but moving none the less.

FCO_To`Mach says:
#::Borgha the have killed our parents::

CNS_Siatty says:
::Feels ride begin to slow again.:: Mira: That was great. What else do you have here?

OPS_Lyon says:
@TO: Have our friends moved again?

CTO_Arconus says:
COM:  OPS:  Right. let me know if your scans pick up anything.

Mira says:

#~~~~CMO: Take yourself into a self induced coma. I need to stay alert. If it gets much later I will do the same.~~~~

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: So, I didn't hear you answer, how many non-humans live in new Utopia?

CTO_Arconus says:
Keats:  I’m getting something. You very that way about 500 meters and we'll triangulate.

Mira says:
CNS: Hmmmm, that is because I didn't answer  :: Leads the way to splash mountain. Sees Mickey Mouse and waves him over::

OPS_Lyon says:
@COM: CTO: Your team has split,  is there a reason for it?

Mira says:
::smiles for the camera::

CTO_Arconus says:
COM:  OPS:  We have a signal. Looks like the storm front blew them back closer to my position than we thought . We'll be there in 16 minutes.

@COM: CTO: I'm transmitting the closest thing we have to actual coordinates of the shuttle.......I'm picking up a possible transponder reading, but it is distorted, Sir.

Host AGM-Trish says:
ACTION:  The reading on the tricorder is off the scale... they are literally standing on top of the Sequoia.

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira:  What does this ride do? ::Feels boat start to move.::

CTO_Arconus says:
Keats:  This is damn odd. It looks like....Nuts we're right on top of them. DIG man DIG.

OPS_Lyon says:
@COM: CTO: Get into the shuttle via the top hatch.

Mira says:
::Grins:: CNS:  You'll see....

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: Can't wait.

CTO_Arconus says:
::Digs frantically::

Mira says:
::giggles::

OPS_Lyon says:
@::starts feeling hopeful again::

Host AGM-Trish says:
<Keats> CTO: Sir, move towards that direction, this is the rear of the Sequoia!

TO_Trent says:
@SO: Good work!

SO_Praught says:
@::Beams at the praise:: TO: Thanks.......I do try......I get frustrated when I can't do anything, but I do try.

FCO_To`Mach says:
#::Borgha must find them::

CTO_Arconus says:
Keats:  OK. I'll try the mission pod access port first.

Host AGM-Trish says:
::Keats begins beating on the Sequoia::

OPS_Lyon says:
@::turns to Trent and Breigh:: ST/TO: Good job, both of you. And thanks for keeping me sane. ::smiles at them::

Mira says:
::feels the boat move towards the drop::

CTO_Arconus says:
COM: OPS:  We've found the shuttle it's buried. We're digging. No comms yet.

TO_Trent says:
@OPS: Thanks.

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: You mentioned the History center, after we are done here I think I need to go theeeeere! ::Feels drop.::

SO_Praught says:
@::Isn't used to so much praise and blushes just a bit:: OPS: Just doin' our jobs, Sir. ::Grins innocently:: But thank you.

OPS_Lyon says:
@COM: CTO: Understood. Let me know when you have them.

Mira says:
CNS:  Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Host AGM-Trish says:
ACTION:  The CMO hears a slight pinging sound, seeming to come from a distance.

CTO_Arconus says:
::uncovers the mission pod access hatch and tries to get it open::

CMOStarr says:
#::still slightly alive hears the beating and tries to answer them by hitting metal against metal::

OPS_Lyon says:
@SO: Hey, credit is given where due.

Host AGM-Trish says:
ACTION:  A return sound can be heard by the CTO.

CTO_Arconus says:
Keats:  You hear that?

Host AGM-Trish says:
<Keats> CTO: Sir, I heard them!

OPS_Lyon says:
@TO: That ship still dead in space?

Host AGM-Trish says:
<Keats>::begins digging as fast as he can::

CTO_Arconus says:
::Gets out phaser torch and magnetic constrictors and breaks the seal on the hatch::

TO_Trent says:
@OPS: Still no movement.

CTO_Arconus says:
Keats:  Give me a hand here. Puulllll, haarrdd.

Host AGM-Trish says:
ACTION:  As the seal is broken on the hatch, oxygen begins to enter the Sequoia.

CNS_Siatty says:
::Ride slows to a halt.::  Mira:  This place is too much.

Host AGM-Trish says:
::reaches down with the CTO and pulls on the cover::

OPS_Lyon says:
@TO: Good. Keep phasers and torps locked on them, they have to know we're still serious.

SO_Praught says:
@TO: But you are still finding them in the same spot, correct? OPS: Could they be trying to fool us at all?

Mira says:
::chuckles::  CNS:  Isn't it though...

CTO_Arconus says:
Shuttle:  HELLO!

TO_Trent says:
@OPS: Aye.

Host AGM-Trish says:
ACTION:  Suddenly the hatch pops open!

CMOStarr says:
#::Feels the O2 levels going up and starts to breathe in the air slowly::

OPS_Lyon says:
@SO: Playing devil's advocate? See if you get anything else... Scan as far as you think needed.

CTO_Arconus says:
Shuttle:  Can anyone hear me?

TO_Trent says:
@SO: What are you thinking?

SO_Praught says:
@OPS: I just don't want them to pull the wool over our eyes, Sir.

CMOStarr says:
#Whispers CTO:  here...

Mira says:
CNS:  Do you still want to go to the history center ?

CTO_Arconus says:
::wiggles in through the hatch and looks around::

OPS_Lyon says:
@SO: Neither do I. Scan for ANYTHING and everything you can think of that can hide them and have us think they are still in one spot.

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: I think I need to. I have so many questions I need answered, games will have to wait.

CTO_Arconus says:
CMO:  Well, what's up Doc?

SO_Praught says:
@TO: Well....they might want us to believe that they went dead.......maybe they only had partial cloak or something before......I don't know.......but we can't usually pick up cloaked ships, Can we? could they be deceiving us by going silent and then moving behind us or something?

CTO_Arconus says:
::Scans everyone with the tricorder::

CMOStarr says:
::starts to breath normally:: CTO: ran out of air

Mira says:
::nods::  CNS:  Ok, but there is one place I want to show you.. the spelunkers cave.

CMOStarr says:
CTO:  everyone except me in drug induced sleep

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: OK, sounds good.

CTO_Arconus says:
Keats:  Drop down the water packs and keep digging around the main hatch.

CMOStarr says:
::goes and wakes everyone up::

TO_Trent says:
@SO: The Cherokee's sensors can check the subspace spatial stress, which allows us to locate cloaked ships.

Mira says:
::brings him to the caves:: CNS:  Here we are... How about we enter ?

CTO_Arconus says:
COM:  Cherokee:  We have them. They are all alive!

CNS_Siatty says:
Mira: Certainly.

Mira says:
::waits for the CNS to enter::

SO_Praught says:
@TO: So there's no chance they've moved and we didn't know it?

OPS_Lyon says:
@COM: CTO: Thanks Irandor. And thank you for getting there in time.

CMOStarr says:
CTO: I’m glad to see you ::smiles:: and gets everyone awake, shaking those who want to sleep. 

CNS_Siatty says:
::Enters cave behind Mira.::

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
::slowly begins to wake up::

OPS_Lyon says:
@::goes to flop into the command chair, relaxing a bit, but still worried about the cloaked ship::

FCO_To`Mach says:
::Slowly wakes up and begins looking around::

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
::looks at the CMO:: CMO: Well I guess I know what you did?

TO_Trent says:
@SO: If they moved it would effect the stress levels. So, they must be waiting for something.

CMOStarr says:
::tries to look innocent:: XO: what.. I did my job

Mira says:
CNS:  Its another ride, let’s get into the boat.

CTO_Arconus says:
::Looks at the CMO's smile::  CMO:  Very nice to see you too Doc.

SO_Praught says:
@::Nods:: TO: I see..... I guess there's  a lot I have to learn about TAC then.

Host XO-T`Kerl says:
::nods:: CMO: Yes I understand.

CNS_Siatty says:
::Climbs into the boat with Mira.::
