USS Cherokee 10504.10  Vice Versa Part 12

Host SM-Trish says:
The Cherokee crew are now split.  The XO is looking for the CSO.  The CEO has found a new friend.  The CNS is holding down the fort at the portal.  The CO is now coordinating from the Cherokee side of the portal.

Host HeadRobot says:
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Begin Mission>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

CO_Ayidee says:
@::On Cherokee side of gateway.::  Engineers: Open that thing up again, we have an operation to coordinate here I think.

Host HeadRobot says:
$::rolls over to the strange robot he had been summoned about::  CSO:  What is your designation and plant number?

OPS_Nash says:
::on the Bridge, starting to get more equipment ready for away teams::
 
XO_Worthington says:
#::scanning the horizon, wondering how far could the CSO have gone::

CEO_Rome says:
#::continues going through the robot's inner parts, looking for a power cell::

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#::Sitting down at the portal as the CMO scans her to make sure she's doing okay.::  CMO:  Honestly, I'm okay.  Really.  You can replace that Tricorder with a ration bar if you want. ::smiles.::  I seem to have eaten mine all up.

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#SO: How are you making out with the Communication link?

CO_Ayidee says:
@*Cherokee*: I need a few dozen 4 man teams equipped and sent down, we're going to send teams through to speed up the search.  Each one should have at least one portable Comm enhancement unit, and should be well supplied.

SO_Herremans says:
#CNS; I'm trying to boost the signal some more and in a moment I'm going to contact commander Worthington and see if we can establish contact with the CSO.

CEO_Rome says:
#::Finds what he's looking for:: Self: What do we have here...looks like a power cell alright.

CSO_Nash says:
#Head Robot: I am Nash 01. Plant number United Star Ship Cherokee.

OPS_Nash says:
*CO*:  Already anticipated your requests for more teams, all I needed was the number of teams.  Also, I will make sure they will be carrying extra provisions as I am almost positive everyone is nearly out, if not already, of nourishment.

CEO_Rome says:
#::scan's the power cell::

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#::Takes a ration bar from the CMO.::  CMO: Thank you.

Host HeadRobot says:
$CSO:  I have never heard of that one, but you may be on the advanced side of the planet.  Did you get lost?

SO_Herremans says:
#*XO*: Sir this is Ensign Herremans, are you ready to make some adjustments to your Commbadge?

CO_Ayidee says:
@*OPS*: Make it a dozen four person teams.  Don't want to strip the ship completely yet.

CSO_Nash says:
$ Head Robot: Affirmative.

XO_Worthington says:
#*SO*: Standing by. What's the procedure?

OPS_Nash says:
*CO*:  Understood.  They will be planet side within 10 minutes.

OPS_Nash says:
::she gives the orders for the dozen teams of four members each::

SO_Herremans says:
#*XO*: I will send you the adjustments right away. They will allow me to use your badge as an antenna.

Host HeadRobot says:
$CSO:  Then I will have someone take you to your plant.  Standby here, I will send unit 387 for you.

CEO_Rome says:
#::activates the Tricorder’s recorder for later study:: Self: This is interesting...seems my earlier assumption was wrong. The gateway is not powering the robots at all. This power cell is still fully charged and not accepting any wireless energy transfer. 

CO_Ayidee says:
@Engineers: Open the portal, I want to send an update through.

CSO_Nash says:
$ Head Robot: I am an advanced unit that has detected some power drain readings emanating from close by. ::Hoping that that will stop the robot.::

CEO_Rome says:
#::makes sure he has all the data on the robot, then closes it up again and let's it go::

SO_Herremans says:
#::Is preparing to send the adjustments to the XO::

Host HeadRobot says:
ACTION:  Before the CSO has time to move, the head robot scurries off, and another one comes rushing up::

CO_Ayidee says:
@::Nods as the Engineers open the gateway.::  *CNS*: Counselor, can you hear me?  We're going to be sending search parties through, but first we need to know that the passage back is indeed controllable.  Can you try and send someone else through?

SO_Herremans says:
#*XO*: Are you ready, sir?

XO_Worthington says:
#*SO*: Transmit.

Host LeaderRobot says:
$CSO:  This way.  I will take you to the other side of the planet.  You may ride on my back, as I see you do not have wheels.

SO_Herremans says:
#*XO*: Transmitting now.

SO_Herremans says:
#::presses the button and sends the adjustments.::

OPS_Nash says:
::she gets word from the Transporter Room that the teams are ready to beam down completely loaded with the requested equipment, she gives the Transporter Chief the go ahead to begin beaming in 1 minute intervals::

XO_Worthington says:
#::receives the transmission and begins to make the modifications::

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#*CO*: Aye, Captain.  I will send Ensign Orpax through.  Go ahead and open the portal,  I will use the communicator you sent through to us.

SO_Herremans says:
#*XO*: Please confirm when the adjustments are ready, sir.

CSO_Nash says:
$ Leader Robot: That would be appreciated, but I am investigating a power drain close by and need to find it's exact location and implement repairs.

CEO_Rome says:
#::watches the robot disappear around the hill, then goes back to examining the data collected::

Host LeaderRobot ACTION:  The first team of 4 beam down to the planet. (Transporter.wav)

OPS_Nash says:
*CO*:  Captain, the first batch of teams should arrive momentarily, if they are not already there.
Host LeaderRobot says:
$CSO:  Power drain?  There is no power drain on this side.  We do not have the equipment or ability to drain power.  Now step on my back so we can get you where you need to go.

SO_Herremans says:
#::Waits for the XO to finish the adjustments.::

XO_Worthington says:
#::finishes the adjustments:: *SO*: I have completed the adjustments.

CO_Ayidee says:
@*OPS*: Excellent, they are arriving now.

CO_Ayidee says:
@*CNS*: Send him through, we'll "hold the door open."

CEO_Rome says:
#::continues onwards, scanning for other robots::

CSO_Nash says:
$ Leader Robot: How do you explain this? :: Shows the robot's visual receptors the Tricorder monitoring the drain and gets on it's back.::

OPS_Nash says:
*CO*:  Acknowledged.  More teams should be arriving momentarily.  They will be carrying food rations and water packs.

SO_Herremans says:
#*XO*: Okay ,sir. I'll try to contact the CSO. You will hear the conversation but you won't be able to talk with us.

CTO_Hazzard says:
@:: watches as more crewmembers start to materialize, making sure his own equipment is ready for a trip through the so called "looking glass". ::

Host LeaderRobot says:
$CSO:  As I said, that is not our power signal.  That comes from the other side of the planet.  Now either get on, or use the bipeds you were given.

CO_Ayidee says:
@CTO: Once Ensign Orpax goes through, you can start taking teams through.  First task is to locate Commander Nash, as well as try and increase comm range from a central location on the other side.

XO_Worthington says:
#*SO*: Good luck then.

CSO_Nash says:
$ Leader Robot: Yes of course. :: Gets on it's back.:: Compliance is beneficial.

CTO_Hazzard says:
@CO: Aye sir.  Knowing Commander Nash, he'll be hip deep in some scientific discovery and won't even know we've been looking for him.

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#FCO:  All right Ensign Orpax.  It's your time to see if this works.  Tell Hazzard I said hi.  ::Gives him a push through the portal.::

Host LeaderRobot says:
ACTION:  The robot feels the CSO on it's back and rolls over with great speed.

SO_Herremans says:
#*XO: Thank you, sir. Ensign Herremans out.

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#*CO*: On his way, Captain.

CSO_Nash says:
$:: Hangs on tight amazed by the speed of the robot.::

SO_Herremans says:
#*XO/CSO*: Commander Nash this is Ensign Herremans, do you read me sir?

SO_Herremans says:
#::Waiting for a response.::

Host LeaderRobot says:
ACTION:  The FCO takes the Tricorder handed to him by T'Lin.  He is zoomed through the portal to the other side.  He lands on his stomach, knocking the air out of him.

CTO_Hazzard says:
@:: turns his head as the portal crackles to life once more...rushing to the FCO's side and helping him back up. :: FCO: Ensign, are you alright? Was the Counselor with you? Is she okay?

CO_Ayidee says:
@FCO: Welcome home.
CTO: Start the teams through, and good hunting.  I'll set up a command center here, and we'll maintain contact regularly.  5 minute intervals once all the teams are through.

CTO_Hazzard says:
@:: nods to the CO's orders and looks towards the teams that have assembled. :: Teams: All right men...no pushing, no shoving and no getting lost.  Alpha team goes first, followed by Baker team.  By the numbers people....NOW!

OPS_Nash says:
::getting word from the Transporter Chief that the last two teams will beam down shortly::

SO_Herremans says:
#:: hears nothing but static.::

CTO_Hazzard says:
@:: walks over to his own team, Charlie Team, and leads them towards the portal, waiting for the last of the first two teams to walk through the portal. ::

CTO_Hazzard says:
@:: All: And whatever you do....Don't Panic!

OPS_Nash says:
*CO*:  Captain, the last two teams are beaming down together now. 
::she gives the Transporter Chief the order to beam the last two teams of four::

Host LeaderRobot says:
ACTION:  The Robot is speeding along at 100 miles an hour.  The winds is whipping the CSO and he now looks like a raw piece of meat.

CO_Ayidee says:
@*OPS*: Teams are going through now.  I expect we'll have contact established soon.

OPS_Nash says:
*CO*:  Acknowledged.  And Good Luck.

SO_Herremans says:
#*XO*: Sir it seems I'm unable to contact the CSO. Could you try to contact him. The adjustments allow a sending radius of 5 kilometers.

CSO_Nash says:
$:: Feels the wind burn, but accepts it and enjoys the brisk motorcycle ride.::

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#*CO*:  What's the status, Captain?

XO_Worthington says:
#*SO*: I will try. *CSO*: Commander Nash, this is Commander Worthington, do you read me? Acknowledge.

CO_Ayidee says:
@*CNS*: Teams will be coming through now, keep one team as base camp.  The rest will join the search for Commander Nash, operating as a communications relay.

CTO_Hazzard says:
@:: waits impatiently as first Alpha, than Baker teams step through the portal, His own team now walking up to the portal's entrance. :: CO: Sir, Alpha and Baker teams are now in transit.  Taking my team through now.

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#*CO*: Understood, Captain, T'Lin out.

Host LeaderRobot says:
ACTION:  As more of the AT arrive, the little robots seems to be going mad, trying to erase their footsteps at the portal, while staying out of the way of prying hands.

OPS_Nash says:
::now all she needs to do is wait patiently for the outcome she is praying for::

CO_Ayidee says:
@*SO*: Any guesses what would happen if we tried to send a shuttlecraft through the gateway?

CTO_Hazzard says:
@:: closes his eyes and steps through the portal with the rest of his team. ::

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#Alpha Team:  Okay, your team will set up base camp here.  
Baker Team:  You will search for Commander Nash.

XO_Worthington says:
#*CSO*: Commander Nash, please respond. ::figures it is hopeless::

CEO_Rome says:
#::continues his scans, looking for any kinds of robot activity::

CTO_Hazzard says:
#:: emerges from the portal and looks about, his eyes only looking for one person, hearing her voice as she gives orders to one of his teams. ::

SO_Herremans says:
#*CO*: My guess is that it will crash once it's through.  Normal laws of physics don't count on this side , sir.

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#::Notices her fiancé just stepping through the gate.  Runs to him, nearly knocking him over.::  CTO:  Mark!  God, I missed you!

CTO_Hazzard says:
#:: catches her in his arms and holds her tightly...just happy to see her again. :: CNS: Missed you more hon.  You have no idea. :: he whispers hoarsely, not trusting his voice much more than that. ::

XO_Worthington says:
#*SO*: No response. I will continue to try him periodically.

CEO_Rome says:
#*XO*: Sir. This is Ensign Rome. Do you read me ?

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#::Wraps her arms around him, hugging him tightly.::  CTO: I am so glad you are okay.

XO_Worthington says:
#*CEO*: Ensign, what is your status?

SO_Herremans says:
#*XO*: Okay, sir. Teams are coming through the portal they will allow us to cover more ground.

CEO_Rome says:
#*XO*: Sir. I've been able to capture one of the robots that seem to keep erasing our tracks. I downloaded it's programming and schematics.

CTO_Hazzard says:
#: gives her a tender kiss on her forehead and keeps her in his arms. :: CNS: Eh, no little virus can keep me down.  How have things been on your side of this mousetrap?

XO_Worthington says:
#*CEO*: Have you learned anything from their data?

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#CTO:  Well no luck in locating Commander Nash yet, but we have hopes with the modifications in the Tricorder that we will be able to contact him.

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#CTO: Ensign Herremans is working on the adjustments with Commander Worthington.

CEO_Rome says:
#*XO*: Well the one I captured was a basic model, it's programming was to pick up garbage and erase markings. What I did learn however is that they seem to be powered by small power cells, I'm still running diagnostics on the data.

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#CTO: They're hoping to establish communication by using Commander Worthington's position as an antennae.

CTO_Hazzard says:
#:: grins and runs his hand through her hair, just happy to see her and hold her once more. :: CNS: When we get back to the ship, I am going to....well...you're gonna be walking funny for a while. :: straightens up as his team of security members are grinning and looking away. :: Charlie Team: Spread out and get ready to head out to the XO's spot!

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#::Points to her stomach which is starting to get bigger.::  CTO: I'm already starting to walk funny, my dear.  ::Grins at him.::  And the babies are kicking up a storm.  Did you bring any water with you?  I am really thirsty.

XO_Worthington says:
#*CEO*: Good work. Please keep me informed.

SO_Herremans says:
#::Overhears the CTO's and CNS' conversation and can hardly hold his laugh.::

CEO_Rome says:
#*XO*: Thank you sir. I will, Rome out.

Host LeaderRobot says:
$CSO:  I must stop now to recharge.  Are your batteries needing replenishing?

CTO_Hazzard says:
#:: hands the CNS his canteen and nods. :: CNS: Take mine.  Soon as we recover Scotty from his little unexpected field trip we'll have you back on the Cherokee and set you up for a mud bath on the Holodeck.  :: looks to the SO and smirks. :: SO: you got something to say?

CEO_Rome says:
#::sits down for a brief rest and wishes he had some water along::

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#CTO: Thank you so much!  ::Takes the canteen drinking about half of it.::  I think he's just happy to see me happy.  I was getting quite cranky, you know.

SO_Herremans says:
#CTO: No sir nothing at all just have a hiccup. ::Blushes.::

CSO_Nash says:
$ Leader Robot: Yes I am. :: Steps off the robot to allow it to recharge and takes out a ration bar and some water and consumes it.::

CTO_Hazzard says:
# CNS: You? Cranky?  Noooo. :: walks over to the SO to clap him on the back good naturedly, and also to avoid getting swatted by the CNS. :: SO: Its alright....stick around us for a while and you'll be used to us.

CO_Ayidee says:
@*SO*: I'm going to have a few shuttle pods prepared and sent through.  One first to see if it can be done.

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#CTO: Actually, he's been great.  They all have, giving me support.  Jovan has been watching over me like a hawk making sure my pregnancy is okay, haven't you Jovan.  ::Grinning at him.::

CTO_Hazzard says:
#Charlie Team: Okay men, lets get these extra provisions out to the XO's team and go dig him out of whatever spot of trouble they're in.

SO_Herremans says:
#CTO: Okay sir. ::Smiling at the CTO.::

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#CTO: Are you heading out?  I'll hold down the fort here if you have to go.

CTO_Hazzard says:
#SO: Do we have contact with the XO?

SO_Herremans says:
#*CO*:Yes Sir, I'll clear the area.

CTO_Hazzard says:
#CNS: Which way did the XO head out, dear.  Would be a good idea for me to find out where to walk off to find him.

SO_Herremans says:
#CTO: Yes sir, I have contact with the XO.

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#CTO: He went to the north.  ::Pointing.::

CEO_Rome says:
#::stands up and stretches then continues onwards::

SO_Herremans says:
#CTO/CNS: Could you please clear this area, the Captain is going to try and send a shuttle.

CTO_Hazzard says:
#*XO*: Commander Worthington, this is Lieutenant Hazzard.  Leave your comm on so that my team can zero in on your location...we've brought extra provisions so you can restock, sir.

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#SO: Aye, Ensign.  
CTO: I think we should head over that way, away from the portal.

CO_Ayidee says:
@*OPS*: Have a Type 6 shuttle prepared and sent down, with the Inertial Dampeners and other subspace fields shut down.  We're going to try to add some speed to the search, if they can get them to fly.

CTO_Hazzard says:
#:: nods and guides the CNS away from the portal, not wanting to let her out of his grasp. ::

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#Security Teams:  Okay all, step away from the portal.

XO_Worthington says:
#*CTO*: Com is open. Good to hear from you Lieutenant.

SO_Herremans says:
#::walks away from the portal.::

OPS_Nash says:
*CO*:  Aye Captain, Shuttle will be underway shortly.

SO_Herremans says:
#*CO*: The area is clear sir. ready to receive the shuttle.

CTO_Hazzard says:
#*XO* : Glad to be heard from, sir.  Ensign Duvall should be at your location in less time then it takes for a Cardie to realize he's ugly.

Host LeaderRobot says:
$CSO:  My batteries are charged.  I will drop you at the trans-warp facility.

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#::Wraps her arm around the CTO’s waist as she walks with him.::

OPS_Nash says:
::gives the order for the preparation of the Type 6 shuttle, with the specified modifications::

CSO_Nash says:
$ Leader Robot: I am ready. :: Gets back on and prepares for the ride.::

CTO_Hazzard says:
#:: looks to her and smiles. CNS: There is one last thing I needed to do that I haven't gotten too yet.

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#::Looks at him with a twinkle in her eye.::

Host LeaderRobot says:
ACTION:  The Robot starts again on a journey the CSO has no idea where it will end up.

CTO_Hazzard says:
#:: leans down and kisses her like there is no tomorrow, actually dipping her and letting the kiss linger for a few moments before finally straightening the both of them back up and grinning. :: CNS: There....that’s better.

OPS_Nash says:
::gets word that the shuttle and crew are ready, she gives the launch orders, seconds later the shuttle is launched::

OPS_Nash says:
*CO*:  Shuttle launched, should arrive at your location shortly.

XO_Worthington says:
#::continues scanning:: *CSO*: Commander Nash, please respond. This is Commander Worthington, over.

Host LeaderRobot says:
ACTION:  The energy shot that was given to the CTO suddenly wears out... he feels like an old many of 60.  He almost drops to his knees with loss of energy.

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#::Stunned by his kiss, but hugs him tightly.  Looks around to see if anyone was watching, and giggles a bit.::  CTO:  Much better now!

CO_Ayidee says:
@*OPS: Excellent, remind them thrusters only, the power drain is still in effect I believe.

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#CTO: What's the matter honey?  You look like you did that time on the beach when I wore you out.

OPS_Nash says:
*CO*:  No problem, they know all that.  I made sure of that personally.

SO_Herremans says:
#::Walks around trying to avoid looking at the CTO and CNS.::

CTO_Hazzard says:
#:: staggers a little bit and moves to rest by one of the crates to the side of the portal...waving off any offer to help. :: CNS: I'm fine...energy shot they gave me in sickbay must be wearing out.  Just need a breather....and I do believe I was the one that was doing the wearing out.

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#CTO: Yes, you are right.  You were wearing out.  That's what I said, right?  ::Grinning.::

CTO_Hazzard says:
#:: chuckles and shakes his head. :: CNS: Heavens above if our kids get your sense of humor.

SO_Herremans says:
#CTO/CNS: Do you guys really have to talk that loud. ::Grins.::

CEO_Rome says:
#::notices a blip on his Tricorder and looks up, noticing something coming towards him::

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#::Giggles::  SO: I didn't think you understood French.  ::Grinning at him.::

CO_Ayidee says:
@*CNS: How are things progressing? Is there anything else you need from the ship?

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#*CO*:  Just a warm shower, Sir.  We're doing fine here.

Host LeaderRobot says:
ACTION:  Another robot approaches the CEO, this one definitely more sophisticated.

CTO_Hazzard says:
#*CO*: I could use a strong cup of coffee...and another shot of vitamin booster from sickbay....I think whatever it was they gave me decided to wear off.

CEO_Rome says:
#::moves aside as the robot moves right for him, this one with "limbs"::

SO_Herremans says:
#CNS: I you where talking French than I'm Klingon. ::Laughs out loud in a Klingon manner.::

CO_Ayidee says:
@::Laughs.::  
*CNS*: I'll get right on that.  Would you care for a sofa or a lounge chair?

CEO_Rome says:
#*XO*: Sir, I just encountered another robot. This one seems more sophisticated in it's design.

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#::Chuckles at the SO's sense of humor.::  SO: Any luck yet with finding Commander Nash?

XO_Worthington says:
#*CEO*: Does it appear to be an attack robot?

SO_Herremans says:
#CNS: No sir. He still seems to be out of range.

CEO_Rome says:
#*XO*: I don't think so sir. It appears to me a repair unit, or it's limbs seem to be tools of some sort. It has not showed any signs of aggression.

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#*CO*: No, that's okay.  I'm going to be all right.  There's a nice comfy rock here by the portal.

CO_Ayidee says:
@*CTO*: Coffee?  What's wrong with the MRE's that are coming through now?

Host LeaderRobot says:
ACTION:  The robot approaches a structure that is so advanced, the CSO is puzzled.  It is unlike anything he has ever seen.  It just seems to keep getting bigger beyond belief.

CSO_Nash says:
$:: As I speed on to my destination, I begin to wonder how the others are doing in their endeavors.::

CTO_Hazzard says:
#:: nods and points to some of the equipment brought with him by some of the teams. :: SO: We brought some signal amplifiers from the Cherokee's Engineering teams.  See if we can set up some kind of signal broadcast enhancers, we might be able to get in touch of Commander Nash that way.

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#::Sighs.::  SO: All right.  Keep trying.  Why don't you see if Commander Worthington can contact him with the new modifications to the communicator.

CTO_Hazzard says:
#*CO* : Sir, the only creature that EVER liked an MRE was that dolphin thing a few months ago...and we all know what fun we had there.

SO_Herremans says:
#CNS: Yes, sir.

CSO_Nash says:
$:: Looks at the structure and notices that it seems to loom beyond end.:: Leader Robot: What is this structure?

CEO_Rome says:
#::Walks over to the robot which has stopped in order to examine it closer::

CO_Ayidee says:
@*OPS*: Any luck finding a way to stop the power drain outside of the "shutdown" method?

SO_Herremans says:
#*XO*: Sir have you been able to contact the commander Nash?

XO_Worthington says:
#*SO*: Negative. I am still attempting at interval.

OPS_Nash says:
*CO*:  Not yet.

CEO_Rome says:
#::tries to capture the robot::

Host LeaderRobot says:
$CSO:  That is our smallest trans-warp facility.  They should be able to direct you to the right plant once we get there.

CO_Ayidee says:
@*CTO*: The Cream of Gagh soup is always good.

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#SO: Tell him we are sending a team to him with amplifiers to boost his signal.

CSO_Nash says:
$ :: Scans the area with his Tricorder and gets coordinates.:: Leader Robot: Understood. Thank you for your assistance.

SO_Herremans says:
#*XO*: We are sending a team to your location with amplifiers to boost your signal, sir.

CTO_Hazzard says:
#*CO*: Sir, I've seen what you prefer to eat.  Trust me...a bowl of Thermonuclear Chili and some root beer and I'll be right as rain.

XO_Worthington says:
#*SO*: Understood. I will continue my efforts in the meantime.

CEO_Rome says:
#::becomes disappointed that this robot is harder to catch and stops for a moment::

SO_Herremans says:
#CNS: Message sent sir.

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#SO: Good job, Ensign Herremans.  You're doing great.  Keep up the good work.

CO_Ayidee says:
@*CTO*: Root beer?  I never realized how disturbed you truly were.  Looks like the Counselor has her work cut out for her.

SO_Herremans says:
#::Blushes at the CNS' compliment.:: CNS: thank you sir.

CTO_Hazzard says:
#:: shakes his head and chuckles.  Self: I really have missed this bunch.

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#::Smiles at the SO.  Walks over and sits down on a rock away from the group rubbing her stomach.  The CMO walks over to her to see if she's all right..:  CMO:  It's okay, Doctor.  I think I just drank too much water too quickly.

CEO_Rome says:
#::watches the robot scurry away from him and then stop a few meters away:: Self: I'm never going to capture it this way, those wheels are too fast. 

CEO_Rome says:
#*XO*: Sir, I've been attempting to capture this robot as I did with the other one. So far it has eluded me but shown no aggressive behavior.

XO_Worthington says:
#::notices a glint on the ground, he looks down to see a MRE wrapper on the ground.:: Self: this doesn't make much sense. I though those robots cleaned all this up. Hmmm, what if, oh no! *ALL*: To whomever can hear the sound of my voice, please respond!

CTO_Hazzard says:
#*XO*:Lieutenant Hazzard here.

CO_Ayidee says:
@::Studies the gateway, wondering how long it's been here.::

OPS_Nash says:
::tries not to let her worrying interfere with her duty::

CEO_Rome says:
#*XO*: Sir, Ensign Rome here.

Host LeaderRobot says:
ACTION:  As the Captain stares at the portal, a symbol seems to appear, then just as quickly disappears.

XO_Worthington says:
#*CTO/CEO*: Those robots, I think.... I...they must have!

CNS_Lt_T`Lin says:
#*XO*:  Commander?  Everything all right?

CTO_Hazzard says:
#*XO*: Must have what sir?  What’s going on?

CEO_Rome says:
#*XO*: Sir? what's wrong?

CSO_Nash says:
