USS Cherokee 10411.14 Getting to Know You Part 8

Host Adm-Alexander says:
The prisoner Diggs has been interrogated with little new information.  It seems he has been just a dupe in all of this, but the questioning continues until everyone is satisfied.

CEO_Ilianor says:
::Leans against the bulkhead, his arms crossed over his chest, his head casually turned to the side as he watches Diggs intently.::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Outside of Brig cell.::  Diggs:  So you do know her.  That makes your willingness to take the fall a bit more understandable.

CEO_Ilianor says:
::Smiles.::  Diggs:  So who is she, Steven?

CSO_Nash says:
::In the Security Office watching as the computer virus leaves the main computer.::

CNS_T`Lin says:
::Standing outside the brig cell, making eye contact with Diggs, observing his body motions.::

Diggs says:
::Stands behind the force field, avoiding the CNS's eyes.::  CO:  Just because I recognize her, what makes you so intent on believing I know her?

Host CO_Ayidee says:
CEO:  She's Diana Smith.  She was a Commander in Starfleet Intelligence before her apparent death a few months ago.

CEO_Ilianor says:
::Walks over to where T'Lin is standing, not dropping his gaze.::  CNS:  I'm sure he knows more than he's letting on, but he's putting up a hell of a fight.

OPS_Nash says:
::Is getting tired of the games that is being played, and the instigator is the only one who has the rules if any actually exist in said being's twisted little warped void that is their brain.::

CMO_Ferdinant says:
::Sits in one of the medical offices on the starbase, studying some reports.::

CNS_T`Lin says:
CEO:  Well I am sure the Captain will pull it out of him one way or another.  He looks a little stressed, do you not think?

Host Adm-Alexander says:
Commander Montegue:  Have we found out yet how Diana got off the starbase?  ::Watches as Samatha Montegue frowns.::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Diggs:  Simple deductive reasoning.  We know she was behind it, even to the point of placing the blame on Commander Worthington quite convincingly.  If you know her by sight and worked with her, it's not much of a stretch to figure you know her.

CEO_Ilianor says:
::Looks over at the CNS, a small smile on his face.::  CNS:  Really!

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Diggs:  Especially combined with the fear you show about revealing your source.  I'd be afraid to cross an Intel agent gone bad, and I'm a fighter.

CNS_T`Lin says:
CEO:  Yes.  I wonder why?

CSO_Nash says:
Commander Montegue:  I believe this may aid the explanation.  ::Shows her the computer record of the virus.::

Host Commander Montegue says:
Adm:  Admiral, I swear, no one transported off the starbase.  Not using our transporters.  But remember there was a device I heard about years ago that was dangerous to use.  I wonder if she has one of those?

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Diggs:  But we can play it your way.  Where did you come to recognize her from?

CEO_Ilianor says:
::Opens his mind again, watching Diggs, listening to Diggs, observing the flow of his thought processes, as he tries to think of some answer .. any answer..::

Diggs says:
::Starts to idly pace in his cell.::  CO:  If you already know what she's up to, then why am I here?  Your first officer is the one you should be asking.

Host Commander Montegue says:
::Looks at the padd CSO Nash has handed her.::

CNS_T`Lin says:
~~~CEO:  Careful with your thoughts, Adahn.  I can feel you, and it is not my mind that you are in.~~~

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Diggs:  My first Officer wasn't the one caught with the abducted children in his hands.

Host Commander Montegue says:
CSO:  So that is how she did it!  CSO, can we find out anything at all, meaning a time frame or is all of it gone?

CEO_Ilianor says:
~~~Diggs:  Answer the question, Steven.  I know how your mind works.  I know what's in there.~~~  ::He looks over at the CNS.::  ~~~CNS:  Quiet, T'Lin, I know what I'm doing.~~~

Diggs says:
::Tries to keep the CEO out of his head.::  CO:  He's the one who arranged it!

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Diggs:  Arranged what exactly?

CNS_T`Lin says:
::Elbows the CEO.::  ~~~CEO:  If the Admiral hears about this, you will be in hot water.  Now stop it, and let the Captain do his job.~~~

CEO_Ilianor says:
::Mumbles.::  Self:  Stupid human.  ::Smiles, and pushes even harder, bringing up images of Diana Smith, forcing them upon him.  He does not notice the CNS elbowing him, nor her thoughts.::

CSO_Nash says:
Commander Montague:  Sorry, Sam, but it is gone.  But I may be able to pull a time index stamp on it.  ::Begins to see what magic he can work with the computer.::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
~~~CEO:  You are pushing too hard Adahn.  If you cannot just observe, then stop this at once.  Do you understand me?~~~

CNS_T`Lin says:
::Breaks into the CEO's thoughts and gives him a headache.::  ~~~CEO:  I may be a half-breed, Adahn, but I assure you, you will walk away with quite the headache if you do not knock it off.~~~

Diggs says:
CO:  Still trying to keep the CEO out of his head.::  The transfer.  He arranged the whole thing.

CEO_Ilianor says:
::Breaks the connection after hearing the admiral's thoughts, and the CNS.  He glares at the CNS and hisses, almost shouting.::  CNS:  Would you get off my back, T'Lin!

CMO_Ferdinant says:
::Puts the padd down and gets up, seeing it's time to go to the lab and see what the technicians have come up with so far.::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Diggs:  Arranged it to where.  Where is it you were supposed to deliver them, and when?

OPS_Nash says:
::Her mind drifts off to thoughts of her babies.::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Glances over at CEO, wondering what prompted the outburst.::

CNS_T`Lin says:
CEO:  Adahn, what is up with you!  ::Gives him an annoyed look.::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
::Decides to visit the brig, as the interrogation needs her help.::

CSO_Nash says:
::Begins running a time index stamp from the computer to see if he can find where any alterations to normal program protocol were tampered with.::  Commander Montague:  It appears that I have some interference at about 30 hours ago, well before the abduction happened.

Diggs says:
::Sighs, and seats himself on the bed in the cell.::  CO:  There wasn't anything specific.  I was just .. given the package .. and told I was to make the transfer.  No names .. descriptions.

Host Commander Montegue says:
::Nods at the CSO.::  CSO:  Anything else?

Diggs says:
CO:  I didn't even .. know what was in it.

CSO_Nash says:
Commander Montague:  Nothing concrete, but it appears that this was well orchestrated.

CNS_T`Lin says:
CEO:  Are you okay?

Host Adm-Alexander says:
::Nods at Sam as she passes her office going towards the brig.::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Diggs:  That may be, but you had to be told where to take it and when to deliver it.  We'll ignore the fact that you kept them after you knew what was in it, for now.

CMO_Ferdinant says:
::Enters the starbase medical laboratory and heads to the counter.::  Technician:  Hi, I'm here for the lab results from the Nash twins?

Host Adm-Alexander says:
::Stops around the corner to listen to the CO's interrogation.::

Diggs says:
CO:  I was told nothing.  There .. there was a code word . nothing more.  I had to do what I did.  It was already too late to turn back.  By the time I knew ..  ::Trails off.::

CEO_Ilianor says:
::Crosses his arms, as he looks away, leaning back against the bulkhead.::

Lab Technician says:
::Looks through his filing system for the name Nash.::  CMO:  And who submitted the samples for testing?

CNS_T`Lin says:
CEO:  Fine.  Ignore me then.  ::Turns her attention back to the interrogation.::

CEO_Ilianor says:
~~~CNS: And you wanted me here to do what, exactly?~~~

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Diggs:  Code word?  How would that help anything?  Or was the code word to unlock something inside?

Host Adm-Alexander says:
::Stepping quietly into the brig.::  CO:  May I speak with you for a moment?

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CNS:  Could you continue for a few minutes please?

Diggs says:
::Looks about to speak, but stops as the Admiral enters.::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
::Looks very sternly at the CEO.::

CNS_T`Lin says:
~~~CEO:  You did what I asked you to do.  You read his mind.  You verified he was telling the truth.~~~

CMO_Ferdinant says:
::Shrugs.::  Technician:  I don't know.  Doctor Starr perhaps?  Or maybe one of the nurses.  Or maybe I did myself, at least, sign for them.

CNS_T`Lin says:
Adm:  Sure, Admiral.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Adm:  Aye, ma'am.  Diggs:  I'll return momentarily.  ::Turns and steps outside for a minute.::

CEO_Ilianor says:
~~~CNS: Oh, no.  I don't think so.  You did not seem to object when you first noticed what I was doing.  And now?~~~

CNS_T`Lin says:
::Enters the brig cell.::  Diggs:  I know you did not mean to harm the babies, but you have to be upfront here, or we are not going to be able to help you.  Where were you supposed to take them?  Was someone supposed to contact you?

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CO:  Tio, I have searched his mind.  He is telling us the truth.  The facts are he is deathly afraid of Smith and didn't realize it was she until she changed disguises.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Adm:  Yes, ma'am, but there are still facts we need to learn.  Who was he supposed to deliver them to?  How long was he supposed to hold them?

CNS_T`Lin says:
~~~CEO:  Adahn, we are Starfleet officers.  We can not re-arrange people's minds because we do not like the answers they are giving us.  You saw for yourself.  He was telling the truth.~~~

Diggs says:
::Avoids looking at the CNS.::  CNS:  I .. I can't.  I . don't know.

CEO_Ilianor says:
~~~CNS:  I did no such thing!  The fact is you have no idea what I was doing.~~~

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Adm:  Something he said though made me think, "code word."  Hypnotic suggestion?

CNS_T`Lin says:
Diggs:  You can not tell us, or you will not tell us because you are afraid.

CNS_T`Lin says:
~~~CEO:  What I saw was you entering his mind, and it did not appear he was enjoying it too much.~~~

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CO:  At this point Tio, that is a very good possibiity.  You know criminals have to be very careful.  I don't believe he knew their were babies.  I think it is just another distraction for the Cherokee.

Lab Technician says:
::Sees the name pop up in the list.::  CMO:  Ah, there it is.  Looks like they just finished it.  ::Presses a few buttons copying the results to a padd.::  I just need your thumb print here.

Diggs says:
::Sighs.::  CNS:  I can't tell you what I don't know.  All I know was .. someone was supposed to contact me.  Nothing else.  Not when .. or who .. or where ..  ::Just shakes his head.::  I had no clue.

CEO_Ilianor says:
::Sighs, as he returns his attention to Diggs.  He's so close.::  ~~~CNS:  Whatever you say, T'Lin.  I'll stay out of his mind from now on, if you so desire.~~~

Diggs says:
::Turns away.::

CNS_T`Lin says:
~~~CEO:  He gave you permission to scan his thoughts, not to re-arrange them.  All I am asking is that you be nice .. for now.~~~

CMO_Ferdinant says:
::Takes the two padds the Technician handed over him, pressing his thumb on one of them while putting the other one away, so he can review it later.::  Technician: Thanks a lot!  ::Turns and leaves again.::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Adm:  I agree, which is why I need to know the when.  It would give us a time frame for the next attack.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
::Doesn't want to say aggravation, but she believes taunting would be a better word for all that has transpired with her crew.::

CNS_T`Lin says:
Diggs:  You did not answer my question.

CEO_Ilianor says:
~~~CNS:  For now?  I don't think so.  You can't have it both ways, T'Lin.~~~

Diggs says:
::Doesn't turn back toward the CNS.::  CNS:  I answered as best I could.  I don't know!

Host Commander Montegue says:
CSO:  How is it going Kevin?

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Adm:  Is there a way to look past such hypnotic suggestion?  I mean with, you know, telepathy?

CEO_Ilianor says:
CNS:  He's obviously not going to tell us anything else.  I say we go, and leave him here to rot.

OPS_Nash says:
::She sneaks away to go check on Liam and Kiandra.::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CO:  Yes, there is Tio, but I need him relaxed and willing to let me look.  If I force him, it could be very dangerous.

CNS_T`Lin says:
Diggs:  Well what were you going to do with the babies then?  CEO:  Wait a minute, please.  Give him a chance.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Adm:  Of course, I understand that.

CMO_Ferdinant says:
::Heads back to the medical offices, taking out the padd again and reading while walking.::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CO:  Well, all I can do is ask?  Shall we?  ::Pointing to the door to the brig area.::

Diggs says:
::Turns back to the CNS, trying to remain calm.::  CNS:  I had no idea what was in the box.  I swear!  I was .. just .. told to hand off the box to someone else .. who was going to contact me.

CSO_Nash says:
Commander Montague:  It's getting frustrating.  I hate the self-erasing worm viruses.  They make the work I do take about three times longer.  ::Vents some frustration.:: Sam, I'm sorry to vent, but it's just so aggravating.

CNS_T`Lin says:
Diggs:  How were they going to contact you?

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Adm:  Let's do it.  ::Turns and heads back in.::  CNS:  He may truly not know, yet.  Something he said makes me wonder.

Host Commander Montegue says:
CSO:  I know, remember all the times we have had this happen before?  Makes you wonder if you are losing your mind sometimes, doesn't it?  ::Grinning at him::

Diggs says:
CNS:  I asked .. she .. they .. told me I'd know by the code word used .. that's all.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Diggs:  Do you know the code word?

CNS_T`Lin says:
CO:  Captain, if we can find out who was supposed to contact him and when, and if they do not know he has been captured, perhaps we can use this to our advantage.  Diggs:  What was the code word?

CSO_Nash says:
Commander Montague:  That it does, Commander. That it does.  ::Gives her a rueful smile.::

Diggs says:
::Turns his attention back to the CO.::  CO:  It was ..  ::Tries to think.::  Warbird.

OPS_Nash says:
::Knowing that the Admiral's Quarters are the safest place, Kyleigh reaches the door and rings the chimes, all she wants to do is see her babies.::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
CNS:  I think he has the knowledge locked up, perhaps hypnotically, which is why he needs the code word.

CNS_T`Lin says:
CO:  But what's the code word?

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Adm:  Perhaps it'll be easier then we thought.  Diggs:  Warbird.

CSO_Nash says:
::Takes out his padds and connects them to the base computer hoping for the magic he had on the Cherokee.::

CNS_T`Lin says:
Self:  Warbird?

CMO_Ferdinant says:
::Enters the office again and gets himself an orange juice, before sitting down.::

Diggs says:
::Steps back from the force field, his eyes seeming to slip shut slightly.::

CNS_T`Lin says:
CO:  I think he is tired, Captain.  Maybe a little rest would do him some good.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Diggs:  Who is it you were supposed to deliver them to?

Host CO_Ayidee says:
CNS:  Not sure, this isn't my area of expertise by any means, but I think he's been hypnotized.

CEO_Ilianor says:
All:  I highly doubt it's a common word like that.  ::Glances at the admiral.::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
::Watches as Diggs does indeed go into a hypnotic state.::

CEO_Ilianor says:
CNS:  No .. no rest for him until we're done.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CEO:  Hush Adahn, perhaps he trusts the Captain, and he is in some kind of trance.

Diggs says:
::Eyes still on the CO .. barely.::  I .. don't know.  Someone was to contact me.  ::Eyes take on a more glazed look.::

CNS_T`Lin says:
CEO:  Do you think he is okay?

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Diggs:  What is the Stardate?

Diggs says:
CO:  10411.14

CEO_Ilianor says:
::Smiles and whispers.::  CNS:  Oh, my God, the fool's going to spill everything.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
All:  Any ideas?  If the contact was to come to him, I'm not sure how to proceed.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
ACTION:  Diggs has lost all inflection in his voice.  It is totally monotone.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
Diggs:  I would like to talk with you for a moment.  Perhaps I can clear up this mystery.  Would you mind me looking into your mind?  I will be gentle I promise.

Diggs says:
::His eyes completely close.::  ADM:  You may do as you wish.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
Diggs:  Warbird, now tell me if you know the identity of the person who was to make the pickup from you.  Warbird.

Diggs says:
::Just shakes his head.::  ADM:  I do not.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
Diggs:  Warbird .. did you know what was in the package you were to pick up?

Diggs says:
::Seems to have trouble standing, but only temporarily.::  ADM:  No, not .. until I opened it.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Adm:  Try where was he supposed to wait for the contact?

Host Adm-Alexander says:
Diggs:  Sit down.

Diggs says:
::Moves to seat himself on the bed again, his eyes still closed.::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
Diggs:  Warbird, do you know where you were supposed to wait for the contact?

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Adm:  If it was on the Starbase, he was meant to keep attention here, meaning there's a threat elsewhere in the region.

CMO_Ferdinant says:
::Reads from the padd, trying to make sense out of the data scribbled into the file.::

Diggs says:
::Tries to keep himself upright.::  ADM:  The .. promenade.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
Diggs:  Warbird, and you do NOT know who was to contact you or when?

Diggs says:
ADM:  No.

CNS_T`Lin says:
::Watches diligently as the Admiral continues to ask Diggs questions.::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
Diggs:  Warbird, how is it you know Diana Smith?

Diggs says:
::Tenses, his expression quickly changing to a mix of panic and fear, but he doesn't answer.::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
::Decides to bring Adahn in with her into Diggs mind.::  ~~~CEO:  This is how it is done, Adahn.  Gently.  Never wear the person down.~~~

Host Adm-Alexander says:
Diggs:  Warbird, you must answer me.  How do you know Diana Smith.  I will protect you.

OPS_Nash says:
::She had a good visit with her twins, who were being watched by someone in the Admiral's Quarters.  Several minutes passed and Kyleigh knew it was time she returned to duty before she was missed.  She kissed the twins good bye, and told them that she will return soon to take them "home".::

CSO_Nash says:
::Runs the programs intended on catching any traces of tampering on a computer system.::

Host Commander Montegue says:
CSO:  Are we there yet, Kevin?  ::Smiling at him, knowing he would kill to get any information for the twins.::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
All:  So is the diversion to keep attention on the Starbase, or to keep it on a specific part of the Starbase?

CNS_T`Lin says:
::Observes the panicked look on Diggs' face, knowing whoever is behind this must be truly evil.::  Self:  Why would he be so afraid?

CEO_Ilianor says:
~~~ADM:  You have him in a hypnotic state, Admiral.  It is no longer the person answering the questions.~~~  CO:  Diversion from what, Sir?

Diggs says:
::Diana's image fills his mind, and her voice can be heard.::  If Starfleet .. or anyone .. catches wind of our little exchange .. you and I will have a very .. personal .. conversation.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
CEO:  This was never meant to succeed.  If it was, they'd have simply beamed the children off before we knew they were missing.  Someone who set up such an operation wouldn't screw up the simplest part.

CSO_Nash says:
::Looks at her mildly annoyed by the phrasing of the question, but simply gives her a chuckle.::  Commander Montague:  Patience, grasshopper.  This is my Kung Fu. And it is strong.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
::Can feel the malignancy in her tone to Diggs.::

OPS_Nash says:
::She re-enters the Security area and returns to the room where she was doing research in hopes of helping the CSO find out who is doing this to everyone.::

CEO_Ilianor says:
::He quick glances at Diggs, then at the Admiral, as he's still within the passageway that the Admiral's constructed for him . and an image of Smith is seen.::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CO:  She has frightened this man beyond belief Tio.  I think we should stop for now.  He needs to rest.

Diggs says:
::The voice continues.::  ... Just so we're on the same page, Mister Diggs.  It'll be rather one-sided.  And you won't survive.

CNS_T`Lin says:
CO:  I agree, Captain.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Adm:  Agreed.  Besides, we need to learn what Smith and her master are after.

Host Commander Montegue says:
CSO:  About time you smiled, Kevin!

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CO:  Tio, this is what she told him:  If Starfleet .. or anyone .. catches wind of our little exchange .. you and I will have a very .. personal .. conversation.  Just so we're on the same page, Mister Diggs .. it'll be rather one-sided.  And you won't survive.

CSO_Nash says:
Commander Montague:  I've been so intent on helping with this investigation, I forgot how to do that for a short time.  Thank you for the help.

Diggs says:
::Can be seen, very faintly, shaking in his cell.::

CNS_T`Lin says:
CO:  Captain, I suggest we post around the clock security guards around this cell.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Adm:  Let's move it outside first.  ::Steps outside.::  All:  I'm not surprised.  Perhaps it's a good thing I didn't take my original idea and let it out in the open we got her name from him to "shake him loose."

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CNS:  I agree, and a suicide watch as well T'Lin.  Do you agree?

CNS_T`Lin says:
Adm:  I agree.  24-hour surveillance.

CMO_Ferdinant says:
::Takes a sip from his orange juice, then replaces it on the desk and rubs his eyes.  All this reading was starting to take its toll on him.::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
All:  Question is still why?  What does LoDuca and his lackey, Smith, have to gain from us concentrating our efforts inside the Starbase?

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CO:  Does there have to be a "why" other than to aggravate the crew?

Diggs says:
::Turns away from the cell as people begin to discuss the situation, tears covering his face.::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Adm:  Yes, LoDuca may be an aggravation, but he's got a goal.  He wants to bring down the Romulan Star Empire, and hopefully take down Commander Worthington and his friends at the same time.

CEO_Ilianor says:
ADM/CO:  Agreed.  What is the point of aggravation?  He's in it for the hurt.  There must be something else.

CNS_T`Lin says:
::Sees the tears coming down Diggs' face and feels sorry for him.  Returns to the cell.::  Diggs:  Are you going to be all right?

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CO:  Tio, he is evil and twisted, I do not believe he can accomplish that.  Not with the friends we have looking for him.  ::Her mind thinks of Raal.::

Diggs says:
::Doesn't even bother turning back to the CNS.::  CNS:  I just handed my life over to Starfleet .. and for what?  I was lied to . and wasn't even payed for this.  No .. I'm not all right.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Adm:  Let's see what Commanders Montegue and Nash have found.  I think this discussion isn't intended to be held here.  CNS:  Let me know if you need anything else.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
::Nods her agreement with the Captain.::

OPS_Nash says:
::She goes to the brig area to see the person who last had the twins, she just wanted to see him one more time.  She just stands in the background area.::

CNS_T`Lin says:
Diggs:  Well, I do not know about you, but if someone did this to me, I would want them to share in the grief.  ::Turns to the Captain and nods.::  CO: Aye, Captain.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Exits brig.::  CSO:  Sorry it took so long, Commander, what have you found?

Host Adm-Alexander says:
::Follows the Captain to the security office.::

Diggs says:
::Sighs.::  CNS:  I don't even know who else would.  I just .. you don't understand.  I didn't know!  I .. didn't ..  ::Trails off, and just lays there.::

CEO_Ilianor says:
::Pushes himself off, and walks closer to T'Lin.  It is disconcerting to see another person cry like this.::  Diggs:  Pull yourself together, Steven.

CSO_Nash says:
::Sees the CO enter with the Admiral.::  CO:  Sir, there was a computer introduced into the system about 30 hours ago and it was one of the favored self-destructing worm variety.  I'm trying to see if I can get some of the bits out of the computer.

CNS_T`Lin says:
Diggs:  No one is going to hurt you.  We will be posting guards around the room so no one is going to hurt you.  Do you need something to help you get some sleep?

Host CO_Ayidee says:
CSO:  Understood, and not surprised.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
ADM:  Any high profile Romulan targets passing through the area?

CSO_Nash says:
CO:  Aye, Sir.  It seems to be the favored method.  ::Smiles at him.::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
CSO:  They've changed some, though.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CO:  Tio, it is pretty quiet in our sector.  Nothing going on that I am aware of.

CSO_Nash says:
CO:  Aye, but not enough to make a difference yet.  I just hope they make that one critical mistake.

Diggs says:
CNS:  They already have!  They already took my life.  If they want me dead, it'll happen.

CNS_T`Lin says:
CEO:  It is sad to see how one wrong turn in someone's life can make such grief.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
CSO:  We just need to find out what they're after.  Why concentrate our efforts here, on the Starbase?

CEO_Ilianor says:
Diggs:  You've forgotten that you're on a -  ::Stops, and his eyes flit to the CNS, and back to Diggs.::  - Federation starbase, and you'll be protected while you're here, for what it's worth.

CSO_Nash says:
CO:  Aye, Sir.  Hopefully this new direction will help shed some light.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
ADM:  We may need more then the usual security in the brig.  Despite what we told Diggs, Intel agents are good at getting where they want to.  Checks on the guards, done by people we know we can trust.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
ACTION:  A medical person comes into the brig, stating the Admiral wishes to have the prisoner tended to.

CNS_T`Lin says:
*Adm*:  There is a medical person here requesting to treat Diggs.  Did you send someone?

Diggs says:
::Still lays on his bed, blisfully (or not) unaware of the new arrival.::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CO:  I think Sam has taken care of that Tio, but if you feel more comfortable with personnel from the Cherokee, I understand.  I think to a certain extent, we are letting this get out of hand.

CEO_Ilianor says:
::He turns around, and notices the medic.::  Medic:  This is a ..  ::Frowns, as the CNS contacts the admiral.::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
*CNS*:  Yes, T'Lin, I did.  Please assist if there is a need.

CNS_T`Lin says:
*Adm*:  Thank you, Admiral.  Medic:  May I see your ID badge, please.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Adm:  No, Ma'am, I trust your people, and your ability to cover things.

Host Medic says:
CNS:  I do not need any help.  ::Shows her the ID.::

CNS_T`Lin says:
Medic:  That is fine.  I would like to watch if you do not mind.

Host Medic says:
CNS:  That is all right with me.  But, I cannot examine him if the shield is still up.  Can you lower it for me?

CNS_T`Lin says:
Medical:  Background check, first please.

CEO_Ilianor says:
CNS: T'Lin, please.

CNS_T`Lin says:
::Passes the Medical ID to the security guard for clearance.::

CEO_Ilianor says:
::Looks behind, and beckons for the guards to approach.::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
ACTION:  The medical ID checks out.

Diggs says:
::Still remains laying on the bed, though he does appear to be listening.::

CNS_T`Lin says:
Security:  Lower the force field.  I will enter with the medic.  Medic:  If you are administering anything, I want to know what you are giving him before you do it.

CEO_Ilianor says:
CNS:  T'Lin, are you sure that is wise or necessary?

Host Medic says:
CNS:  Why the check Counselor?  What is so important about this man?  ::Staring at him.::

CNS_T`Lin says:
Medic: Because I want to make sure no one is going to harm him.

Host Medic says:
CNS:  I am going to check him with the tricorder first.  Would you care to do it yourself?  ::Smiling at the woman.::

CNS_T`Lin says:
Medic:  Not at all, proceed, please.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Self:  What's he up to?  Why pull this?

Host Medic says:
::Nods to the CNS and walks over to where Diggs is lying down, running the tricorder over his body.::

CSO_Nash says:
::Starts running a search using the new parameters.::

Diggs says:
::As the force field lowers, and the medic approaches, he reaches to her side and activates a small device.::

OPS_Nash says:
::She doesn't know what to think after seeing Diggs in that cell, presumingly like a broken man.::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
::Bending over Diggs, she places a hand on his arm, her back is to the CNS, as she and Diggs disappear.::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
ACTION:  Diggs and Diana Smith are transported off the Starbase.
