USS Cherokee NCC 61333 – 10204.28 – “Rendering Aid” Part 1
SUMMARY:  After chasing down the three men who were running with the child, the crew discover that this is not the child they are looking for and the search for T'Sara continues.   After another talk with the prophets the crew is thrown into the Gamma quadrant where they have been contacted by a Jem'hadar ship by a Vorta name Lana.  A sickly looking founder can be seen.  The Jem'hadar ship is badly damaged and the Vorta is now asking for help.  Will the Cherokee crew?

Host XO_Lyon says:
::sits at the head of the conference table, waiting for the senior staff to assemble::
CNS_Siatty says:
::Returning to the Bridge to see if anything has changed before the briefing.  Noting things are the same, enters the Conference Lounge.::
Host Lana says:
@::Sadly looks back at her "God" hoping this crew will help them.::
CTO_Worthington says:
::enters the Conference Lounge, taking a seat::
CSO_Nash says:
:: Sitting on the bridge at SCI-1 running scans. Looks for any signs that the Ursa has been this way.:: Gets the data and heads for the briefing room.::
OPS_Jones says:
::enters the Conference Room and sits down leaving an empty seat next to her::
CEO_Terumo says:
::joins the others in the conference room::
Host XO_Lyon says:
::looks around:: All: Ok, I know Michaela is in surgery at the moment and Jovan is assisting.
Host XO_Lyon says:
::takes a deep breath:: All: Opinions... do we help or not?
CNS_Siatty says:
XO: We have to.  To not help would betray the Federation's ideals.
CTO_Worthington says:
XO: I believe we have to help, sir. However, I believe we should place security in all sensitive areas.
OPS_Jones says:
::looks up::   XO:  I agree with Siatty but with extreme caution, it wasn't that long ago when we were at war with these people.
Host XO_Lyon says:
::nods:: CNS/CTO: Agreed.
Host XO_Lyon says:
OPS: Trust me, I remember it vividly. CSO: Kevin?
CNS_Siatty says:
CTO: Might be easier to assign escorts to them if and when they come aboard.
Host XO_Lyon says:
CNS: If they do, it will be the shape shifter and the Vorta. I don't want Jem'Hadar on this ship.
CTO_Worthington says:
CNS: Can't be too safe.
Host XO_Lyon says:
CTO: Pick your most trusted people for this. Assign them in pairs. And none lets the other out of sight. Is that understood?
CTO_Worthington says:
XO: Understood, sir.
Host XO_Lyon says:
::sighs:: All: Looks like I made up my mind anyway.
CSO_Nash says:
XO: I also agree sir, but I urge caution. We need to find out if our adversaries are responsible. I have tracked them this far, but the trail is weak, and the damage to the other ship is consistent with an attack by our adversary. Our help may be beneficial to us both.
CEO_Terumo says:
XO: Maybe we should even board their ship and take a close look at their damages. We could take the opportunity to see if we find anything strange.
Host XO_Lyon says:
::nods:: CSO: Understood. I'll try and get the information from them.
Host XO_Lyon says:
CEO: Good idea, I'll make that suggestion to them.
CSO_Nash says:
XO: I also have some evidence that our adversary may not have been alone in the attack upon these people.
CNS_Siatty says:
CEO: Problem is, will they trust us enough to let us aboard?  It's our nature to help, it's not theirs to trust.
CTO_Worthington says:
XO: If they try anything, their ship won't be much of a challenge. However, this may be a ploy to attempt a takeover.
Host XO_Lyon says:
::looks at the assembled officers:: All: Well then, we have a plan of action. Shall we get to it? ::looks at Tach:: CNS: I can make the offer, its up to them to accept or decline. CSO: Analyze the information.
CEO_Terumo says:
CNS: But one could be the result of the other.
CNS_Siatty says:
CEO: I'd love to be wrong, maybe we'll be lucky.
Host XO_Lyon says:
::gets up:: All: Adjourned. You have your instructions.
CSO_Nash says:
XO: Aye sir.
CTO_Worthington says:
XO: Aye.
Host XO_Lyon says:
::walks through the doors to the bridge and goes to the center seat::
CEO_Terumo says:
::exits the conference room and heads to the TL::
CTO_Worthington says:
::walks to tactical and begins assigning security teams::
CNS_Siatty says:
::Stands and heads back to the Bridge.::
OPS_Jones says:
::leaves the Conference Room and heads for her station on the Bridge::
CSO_Nash says:
:: Gets up and heads back to the bridge, as he is about exit the room he notices that Kyleigh is looking his way. As she looks at him he notices that her eyes have a more Violet tint to them. Kyleigh: What's got you so stressed out?
Host XO_Lyon says:
OPS: Open a channel to the Jem'Hadar.
OPS_Jones says:
Kevin:  Long story.
CTO_Worthington says:
::after assigning security details, begins a long range scan of the area::
CSO_Nash says:
:: Crosses to his station as he is talking to Kyleigh. After he hears her answer he begins his scan.
CTO_Worthington says:
XO: Captain, I believe I may have something on long range scans. It may be the Ursa.
Host XO_Lyon says:
CTO: Make sure and let me know. ::waits for the channel to the stricken ship::
OPS_Jones says:
::begins to monitor the area for any form of transmissions, and for safety sakes, she begin to plot the fastest way back to the wormhole just in case of any emergencies that may pop up unexpectedly::
CSO_Nash says:
:: As he finishes the scan he gets the reading of our old friend back.:: XO: I am also getting a reading on the same signature as the Ursa sir.
Host Lana says:
@::Walks around her bridge wondering what is taking so long.::
Host XO_Lyon says:
CSO: Check with Trent.
CTO_Worthington says:
XO: Confirmed, sir. It is the Ursa.
CEO_Terumo says:
:: enters Main Engineering and approaches an officer::
Host XO_Lyon says:
COM: Lana: Lana... I've decided to help you, but this will have to happen while in transit. Can your ship maintain a suitable warp speed?
Host Lana says:
@::Face appears on the screen.:: COM:XO:  I can't believe that you take your time in discussing whether or not the help people and no we can't even go to warp.  We barely have impulse power and it’s all because of your kind.  The founders were right.  You solids needed their guidance.
Host XO_Lyon says:
::blinks:: COM: Lana: Our kind? What do you mean?
CSO_Nash says:
:: As the CTO confirms his readings, he begins scanning for any anomalous readings.::
OPS_Jones says:
::cringes  at the word "solids" and what it means to the "founders"::
Host Lana says:
@COM:XO: As if you didn't know, I suspect you even set this up.  You are in cahoots with the Narmanons.  You would like nothing better then to wipe out the Founders.  I can't believe I took the chance and contacted you.
Host XO_Lyon says:
COM: Lana: If these people who attacked you are who I think they are, you and I have a mutual cause. I promise you we did not set up an ambush.
Host Lana says:
ACTION:  The Jem'hadar ship slowly starts to move away...  The left nacelle falls off.
Host Lana says:
@COM:XO:  Why should I trust you ?
Host XO_Lyon says:
COM: Lana: Because if I set this up, I would have finished the job already. And you are in danger of breaking up. We'll beam you aboard.
CNS_Siatty says:
COM: Lana: Because we have offered to help you, and you don't appear to be in a position to choose.
Host Lana says:
@::Looks at him uncertain.::
Host Lana says:
@COM:XO:  I hate it when you Alpha types are right.
Host XO_Lyon says:
COM: Lana: Are you willing to die? If so, I'll rescue you against your wishes.
CEO_Terumo says:
*XO*: Sir, we're getting an energy build up on the fighter's engine room. I suggest caution.
Host XO_Lyon says:
*CEO*: Can you determine the cause?
Host XO_Lyon says:
COM: Lana: I do have one condition.
Host Lana says:
@COM:XO:  And that is ?
CEO_Terumo says:
*XO*:Working on it, Sir.
Host XO_Lyon says:
COM: Lana: That your warriors remain in one area. I cannot have them roam the ship, it will disrupt the efficient working of my crew.
Host Lana says:
@COM:XO:  You will have no worries about the Jem'hadar as long as you don't threaten the Founder.
Host Lana says:
ACTION:  Explosion in Engineering on the Jem'hadar ship.  Flames begin shooting through the ship.
CTO_Worthington says:
*SEC*: All teams stand by.
Host XO_Lyon says:
COM: Lana: And you have no worries about the Founder if you don't plan some subterfuge. Just so we understand each other.
CEO_Terumo says:
*XO*: We read several large force fields on the fighter's Engineering Room. I'd say their breaking apart and won't last long.
Host Lana says:
ACTION:  Bow of the ship breaks away...
CTO_Worthington says:
XO: Sir, the Jem'hadar ship is breaking up.
Host XO_Lyon says:
*CEO*: Understood. ::sees the ship breaking apart:: CSO: Beam the Jem'Hadar to Cargo Bay 2, and the Vorta and Founder to sickbay.
CEO_Terumo says:
*XO*: Correction: They didn't last long. Ship's broken into two major fragments.
Host XO_Lyon says:
*Sickbay*: Incoming Founder and Vorta. Take appropriate measures.
Host Lana says:
<Doctor> *XO*: We are standing by.
CSO_Nash says:
XO: Aye sir. ::Initiates the transport.::
CTO_Worthington says:
XO: All security teams are in place.
Host Lana says:
ACTION:  The crew of the Jem'hadar ship is transported to the Cherokee.
CNS_Siatty says:
XO: I'll meet the Jem' Hadar and tend to their injuries with the Medical teams.
Host XO_Lyon says:
OPS: As soon as they are on board, set a course after the Ursa.
Host Lana says:
::Materializes in sickbay.::
OPS_Jones says:
XO:  Yes, sir. ::sets course to find the Ursa::
Host XO_Lyon says:
CNS: Understood. Have security teams with you the whole time. CSO: I assume you beamed their weapons to a different location?
CSO_Nash says:
XO: Yes sir, I used standard hostile force transport protocol.
CNS_Siatty says:
XO: Of course.  *Med Teams*: Meet me at Cargo Bay 2.  Likely patients include Jem’ Hadar, prepare accordingly.
CTO_Worthington says:
::continues long range scans:: *SEC*: I want all teams to report in every two minutes.
CNS_Siatty says:
::Exits Bridge and heads to Cargo Bay 2.::
Host XO_Lyon says:
CSO: Good. ::gets up:: CTO: Trent, you have the bridge. I'm going to talk to our visitors.
CTO_Worthington says:
XO: Aye. ::takes the center chair::
Host Lana says:
::As the med teams fuss over the founder, she makes her way to the communication station.::  *XO*:  I will speak with you.
CSO_Nash says:
:: After the transport has completed I set scanners at maximum on the coordinates of the Ursa.::
Host Lana says:
::Turns to the med staff.:: Med Staff:  Please leave the Founder alone.  You must not touch the Gods.
Host XO_Lyon says:
::leaves the bridge and gets into the TL:: *Lana*: So will I. I'm on my way. Please don't use the comm system any further.
Host Lana says:
<Med Staff>  ::Startled, the med staff moves back.::
OPS_Jones says:
::suddenly she gets a flashback from when she was on Betazed when the Jem'Hadar first arrived to occupy her home. She tenses up a little bit, hoping no one noticed, but that wasn't meant to be sent she called out the name "Jorma"::
Host Lana says:
*XO*:  Your hospitality overwhelms me.  May I breathe?
CNS_Siatty says:
::Exits the Turbo Lift and sees the Medical Teams have arrived.::  Security: Keep your eyes open, but be cautious.  I don't want any misunderstandings with a group of genetically engineered warriors.
Host XO_Lyon says:
*OPS*: Kyleigh. Please lock all consoles in sickbay, activation on access codes only.
CNS_Siatty says:
::Enters the Cargo Bay.:: Jem’ Hadar: We are here to help.  Are you injured?
Host XO_Lyon says:
*Lana*: Standard protocol. I'm almost there. ::exits the TL and turns towards Sickbay::
CTO_Worthington says:
CSO: Any update on the Ursa?
OPS_Jones says:
::doesn't hear Lyon's words, all she can hear was the Jem'Hadar coming after her::
Host XO_Lyon says:
*OPS*: Kyleigh, did you hear me?
CTO_Worthington says:
OPS: Is there something wrong?
CSO_Nash says:
CTO: Not at present. She is still unaware of our presence for now. She is 5 light years away and maintaining warp 6.
OPS_Jones says:
::jumps up::  ALL:  Stay away from me.  ::she cowers away::
Host XO_Lyon says:
::hurries down the corridor:: *CTO*: Trent, make sure Kyleigh locks down all consoles in Sickbay, with access code activation.
CSO_Nash says:
CTO: Correction, they have just taken up standard orbit of Narmanon.
CTO_Worthington says:
*XO*: Aye. We may have a problem with Ensign Jones.
Host XO_Lyon says:
::doesn't wait for confirmation and enters sickbay:: *CTO*: What kind of problem?
CNS_Siatty says:
::Begins to Triage the Jem Hadar as the Medical Teams treat the injuries.::
CTO_Worthington says:
::moves to the OPS console and locks down sickbay:: *XO*: Recommend medical team to the bridge.
OPS_Jones says:
::she keeps saying "Stay away” under her breath::
Host XO_Lyon says:
*CTO*: Understood. MO: Doctor, get to the bridge.
Host XO_Lyon says:
::turns to Lana:: Lana: I'm Commander Lyon.
Host Lana says:
<MO> ::Looks at the XO::  XO:  Aye Sir.  ::Scurries out of sickbay and rushes to the bridge.::
Host Lana says:
XO:  Well it’s about time.  I'm Lana.
CTO_Worthington says:
::walks toward OPS:: OPS: Ensign, to your station. That is an order.
Host XO_Lyon says:
::blinks:: Lana: I see. What is wrong with the Founder?
OPS_Jones says:
::still in her flashback::  CTO:  Stay away.
CSO_Nash says:
:: Gets up as he hears Kyleigh yell out.  Moves over toward her.:: Kyleigh: Please calm down. :: Braces for an attack if she can't be reasoned with.::
CNS_Siatty says:
*XO*: Jem’ Hadar are being treated.  Medical Teams should have them all treated within a few hours.  Nothing life threatening.
Host Lana says:
XO:  That is not your concern.  I need to get the Founder back to the Gods homeworld immediately.  ::Hesitates::  Its a matter of the utmost urgency.
OPS_Jones says:
::starts to become combative as Kevin nears her::
Host XO_Lyon says:
*XO*: Understood.
Host Lana says:
<MO> ::Enters the bridges and sees the OPS  "Freaking out". Pulling out a hypospray, she rushes over and pushes it against her neck.::
Host XO_Lyon says:
Lana: Well, I'm sorry, but I'm not a courier service set by your whim. I'm not going to put this ship at risk just because you wish it. I need more information.
CSO_Nash says:
:: Backs out of reach, waiting for an opening with which he can subdue her without harming her.::
Host Lana says:
XO:  You would condemn a God.
CTO_Worthington says:
CSO: Get back to your station. MO: Can you subdue her?
Host Lana says:
XO:  I need access to your navigation systems so I can input the course.
Host XO_Lyon says:
Lana: I would condemn anything if I don't know what I'm heading for. This is not negotiable. I want a reason, other than it’s "urgent". And why isn't your "god" being treated?
Host XO_Lyon says:
Lana: you will have access to no such thing.
Host Lana says:
<MO> CTO: Aye, Sir, I have given her a Valium, she should be calming down.
OPS_Jones says:
::suddenly, she becomes more aware of her surroundings and the tears start to fall::
CTO_Worthington says:
OPS: Ensign, can you hear me?
Host Lana says:
::Lips tight she looks at the XO.  She leans in a whispers.::  XO:  This is a delicate matter, very delicate.   You see the Founder is.... ummmmm......dying.
Host XO_Lyon says:
::frowns as Lana whispers to him:: Lana: And you believe the Founder returning to its homeworld will be saved?
CSO_Nash says:
:: Heads back to  his station as he sees the crisis is over.::
Host Lana says:
XO:  Yes Cmdr.   The Great Link is life to them.
OPS_Jones says:
::focusing in on Trent but not really remembering what happened::    CTO:  I think so , what happened?
Host XO_Lyon says:
::thinks a moment:: Lana: How far is the Founder homeworld from here? How long will we travel?
Host Lana says:
XO:  I cannot tell you that.  It means death to me. That is why I have to put it in myself.  Do you know how many enemies the Founders have? All of course unfounded.
CTO_Worthington says:
OPS: You became combative for a moment. MO: Can she return to duty?
Host XO_Lyon says:
Lana: I need to know so I can make a decision. I have a girl in danger that I need to rescue, so I suggest you give me a little more.
Host Lana says:
<MO> CTO:  I'd advise against it.  If you truly need her. very light duties, then she should report to Sickbay.
OPS_Jones says:
CTO: What.....  ::then she remembers a little bit on what just occurred::
Host Lana says:
XO:  Lets just say its many light years away from here.
CTO_Worthington says:
OPS: If you can handle it, please report to your station. CSO: Where is the Ursa now? ::returning to the center chair::
Host XO_Lyon says:
Lana: I need a timeframe, or you'll have to wait until I can spare the time to help.
OPS_Jones says:
CTO:  I can try ::carefully returns to her station::
Host Lana says:
XO:  Then the death of a God will be on your hands.  The Founders will hold you personally responsible.
CMO_Starr says:
::moves to the next patient::
Host XO_Lyon says:
Lana: I want to help you, but I cannot trust you just because you say so.
CSO_Nash says:
CTO: They have taken up Standard orbit around Narmanon
Host Lana says:
XO:  What do I hold dear above anything else Cmdr ?
Host XO_Lyon says:
Lana: What I know of your race, nothing else but your gods.
CTO_Worthington says:
*XO*: The Ursa is in orbit around Narmanon.
Host XO_Lyon says:
*CTO*: Maintain course.
Host Lana says:
XO: And I've trusted you with my God.  Despite my hesitation and belief that you are behind this attack on us.
CTO_Worthington says:
*XO*: Aye.
Host XO_Lyon says:
Lana: I see. All I need is time in days.
Host Lana says:
XO:  Three at the most.  But I don't know if the Founder will last that long.
Host XO_Lyon says:
::frowns:: Lana: You are putting me in a difficult situation.
Host Lana says:
XO:  You’re in a difficult position Cmdr...I've handed you everything I hold dear and you are in a difficult position.  You Alpha people are really truly selfish.
OPS_Jones says:
::as she is continuing to monitor transmissions, her mind starts to wonder again to Jorma::
Host XO_Lyon says:
Lana: I have others to consider, not only you and your problems.
Host Lana says:
XO:  Then you should have left us to perish.
CTO_Worthington says:
OPS: Report.
CMO_Starr says:
::finishes up with the worst of the causalities and starts to work on those who are not so critical::
Host XO_Lyon says:
Lana: That I couldn't do. ::pauses:: Ok, I'll do it, but at the first sign of your lying to me, I'll space you, your god and the warriors. Is that understood?
Host Lana says:
::For the first time she smiles.:: XO:  I thank you Cmdr.
CSO_Nash says:
:: Begins a system scan on Narmanon, scanning for anything out of the ordinary.::
OPS_Jones says:
::hears the CTO and checks current status to see if any changes occurred::  CTO:  I'm starting to pick up some transmission coming from the planet, they give the impression that Namanon is a trading planet similar to Orion.
CNS_Siatty says:
CMO: I'm heading back to the Bridge.  If any of these guys start to act up, give me a call.
Host XO_Lyon says:
Lana: Give me the co-ordinates, I'll program the navigation systems.
CMO_Starr says:
CNS:  Don't worry I shall.
CTO_Worthington says:
*CEO*: What is your status?
Host Lana says:
XO:  I.......I....... can't.
Host XO_Lyon says:
Lana: Excuse me?
Host Lana says:
XO:  I have to input the coordinates...
Host XO_Lyon says:
Lana: And the reason for that would be?
Host Lana says:
XO:  Did you listen to anything I said ?
OPS_Jones says:
::then she hears something intriguing::  CTO:  Sir....there's a transmission about an auction of a child that had just arrived on the planet.
CTO_Worthington says:
OPS: Anything more specific?
CEO_Terumo says:
*CTO*: All systems are within normal working parameters. Warp 9 is putting a strain on the engines, though. I believe we can keep it together until we reach Narmanon, but we might need to reduce speed closer to our destination.
CTO_Worthington says:
*CEO*: Understood.
OPS_Jones says:
CTO:  No nothing, location is kept secretive.
CSO_Nash says:
:: Bristles at the mention of child selling.::
Host XO_Lyon says:
Lana: Yes, I did. ::goes to a console and isolates a section for her to input the co-ordinates, making it look like the input is directly to the navigation systems:: Go ahead.
CMO_Starr says:
::looks around and notices the rest have been treated by her team and don't need further treatment::
CTO_Worthington says:
*XO*: Sir, we may have another problem. Ensign Jones has detected a transmission about an auction of a child on Narmanon.
CNS_Siatty says:
::Enters Bridge and begins to review the new data.::
Host Lana says:
::Hesitates for a second.::  XO:  Thank you.  ::Inputs the coordinates.::  This will get us 20 light-years away.  I'll put the final coordinates in when we reach that point.
Host XO_Lyon says:
*CTO*: Oh, joy. I'll be there in a moment. We're making a side trip.
Host XO_Lyon says:
Lana: Understood. You can stay here with the Founder, but please don't bother my staff, and don't try to access any consoles, please.
CTO_Worthington says:
::sees the CNS:: CNS: Currently on course to intercept at warp 9. ::heads back to tactical::
CNS_Siatty says:
CTO: Auction?  That could be a break.
CMO_Starr says:
::receives the report from her staff quietly there are enough rations of ketracel on board for about 7 days, send a team to start making more in the labs::
OPS_Jones says:
CTO:   I just heard something that the Auction’s location is by face to face word of mouth only.
Host Lana says:
XO:  I will abide by your rules.
CNS_Siatty says:
*XO*: If they are holding an auction, we can use that and minimize risk to the locals.
Host XO_Lyon says:
Lana: Good. Now if you'll excuse me. ::leaves the room without waiting for her answer::
CTO_Worthington says:
CNS: Hopefully T'Sara is alright. If only we could get there faster.
Host Lana says:
::Doesn't trust him.  Pulls out a transmitter that is not picked up by the scans of the Federation.  Contacts one of her Jem'hadar.::
Host XO_Lyon says:
::sets off at a run:: *CNS*: Tach, I want you, Trent and Michaela ready to depart in the Sequoia in five minutes.
Host Lana says:
ACTION:  Two Jem'hadar start to become crazy.
CMO_Starr says:
::notices the two Jem'Hadar going crazy and her team reacting to them to control them::
CNS_Siatty says:
*XO*: Heading to Narmonan I take it?  What kind of gear, undercover or in uniform?
Host Lana says:
ACTION:  One Jem'hadar reaching for the nearest Med Officer, picks him up by the neck and throws him against the wall.
Host XO_Lyon says:
::enters the TL:: *CNS*: Both. TL: Bridge.
CMO_Starr says:
*has security zero in on the Jem'Hadar, another med officer hits him with a ketracel/tranq dart:::
CNS_Siatty says:
*XO*: Understood.  *CMO*: We're going on a Trip.  Get your gear together and meet us at the Sequoia in five minutes.  CTO: I'll meet you at the Sequoia.
Host XO_Lyon says:
::exits the bridge:: CNS: Good. I trust you with this. If it’s T'sara, bring her back.
Host Lana says:
ACTION:  The Jem'hadar calms down.   The second destroys the console in the cargo bay.
CTO_Worthington says:
CNS: Understood. ::heads for the Sequoia::
OPS_Jones says:
::just as the XO enters the bridge, she has another flashback and cries out "Jorma"  She has a look of pure terror on her face::
CNS_Siatty says:
::Is about to enter the Turbolift, but stops.::  OPS: Are you alright?
CMO_Starr says:
*CNS*:  En route.  ::speaks Dr. Paine telepathically leaving her and the mo in charge of the situation which they can control.
Host XO_Lyon says:
::sees Kyleigh's panic attack:: *Sickbay*: Medical emergency on the bridge.
OPS_Jones says:
::she starts to look for a place to hide::
CMO_Starr says:
::notices as she is leaving the second Jem’hadar is drugged as well::
CTO_Worthington says:
::arrives in the shuttle bay and grabs a few weapons and supplies before entering and starting pre-flight procedures::
Host Lana says:
<MO> ::Beams onto the bridge and sedates Kyleigh.::
OPS_Jones says:
::once sedated, she falls to the floor::
Host XO_Lyon says:
MO: Take her to her quarters and determine the cause of the panic attack. CSO: Keep gathering information on the Ursa and transmit it to the Sequoia.
CMO_Starr says:
::grabs two new medkits and her gear en route to the sequoia::
Host Lana says:
ACTION:  Two Narmanon ships decloak in front of the Cherokee.
CNS_Siatty says:
XO: I'll get one of my people up here to help with her.  ::Heads to the Shuttlebay, calling Pat on the way to send Lt. Katze up to help.::
Host XO_Lyon says:
Security: Red alert!
CSO_Nash says:
XO: Aye sir. And Rojer, be careful.
Host Lana says:
<Capt Gorge> COM:Cherokee:  You will drop your weapons and come with us.  You have a prize we want and you’re in our space.  Violators are severely punished.
CSO_Nash says:
:: Begins scanning the new threats.::
CNS_Siatty says:
::Enters Shuttle Bay and heads to Sequoia.::  CTO: How far have the preflights gotten?
Host XO_Lyon says:
COM: Gorge: I beg your pardon? Who do I have on my ship that you want?
CTO_Worthington says:
CNS: Ready to depart.
CMO_Starr says:
::straps herself in:: CNS:  I'm ready
Host XO_Lyon says:
*CNS*: Halt your departure, we have trouble.
Host Lana says:
@COM: Cherokee.::  Drop your weapons.  ::A beam locks onto the Cherokee and starts draining the shields.::
CNS_Siatty says:
*XO*: Understood, we're ready to launch if needed.
Host XO_Lyon says:
CSO: Create a feedback loop on that beam.
CEO_Terumo says:
*XO*: There's an energy drain coming from the Narmanon ship! Shields are losing power.
Host XO_Lyon says:
*CEO*: Understood, we're on the case.
CSO_Nash says:
XO: Aye sir, I will also run rotating modulations on the shields.
Host XO_Lyon says:
CSO: Good.
Host Lana says:
ACTION:  Second ship opens fire and hits the weapons array.
CEO_Terumo says:
*XO*: Redirecting power from secondary sources to shields in order to compensate drain.
Host XO_Lyon says:
::sighs:: Security: Stand down...
CSO_Nash says:
:: Begins the feedback loop and runs the remodulations on the shields.::
CTO_Worthington says:
CNS: What is going on?
Host Lana says:
@COM: Cherokee:  Follow us.  We will escort you to Narmanon.
Host XO_Lyon says:
COM: Gorge: I've dropped weapons, but until you give me an explanation, I'll keep fighting you on shields.
Host XO_Lyon says:
