Ship's Log, Stardate 11103.20, Captain Ayidee recording.  The Away Team has discovered a working gateway and has passed through.  As we still are not really sure where the gateway takes them, we do not expect them to be back in contact until they return.  We are working on ideas around that, but so far, nothing seems promising.

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Begin Mission >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::With Away Team, wondering how they're going to deal with the course of events in the forseeable future.::

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::beginning to come to after fainting::

CEO_Cmdr_Damien says:
::looking at his double, and wonders what would happen is he kills him::

BOT_Zetopentalite says:
::Sitting next to OPS, and with the SO's help stands.::

Host XO_Wells says:
All: Let's gather around and listen, we need a course of action and of course I have my opinions.

Host TO-Weller says:
#::keeping a close watch on Dr. Neal as he paces up and down, glancing at the gateway occasionally::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Still casting glares at her double, she starts to take a look at the environment around the team::

XO_Wells2 says:
All: And I have opinions too.

CEO_Cmdr_Damien says:
<CEO2>::looking at his double, and wonders what would happen is he kills him::

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::stands up, as she helps her double up as well::

BOT_Zetopentalite says:
XO:  Are you here to take Jekyl away?

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
<2OPS>  ::is helped up by her double::

Host XO_Wells says:
Bot: I'm not sure now.  That was the plan, but now you say he'll die.

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
XO/ Wells: He'll die eventually, he can spend a few weeks at most in your world.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::~~~listening for Jekyl~~~::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
<2CNS>::looking at one of the CEO's curiously::

XO_Wells2 says:
Ec'Thel'Ion: Could you explain what would happen if my crew went through the gateway back to Alpha Kulpa?

Host XO_Wells says:
Ec’Thel’Ion: Or at least one of each of the crew.

BOT_Zetopentalite says:
XO:  He is ::pausing a bit:: becoming more ill either way.  His regeneration chamber is in our castle.

Jekyl says:
::Relaxing in his chamber dreaming of a time when he was whole.::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Sighs quietly:: Ec’Thel’Ion: Did you mention a "we" earlier? as in...more of you?

CEO_Cmdr_Damien says:
Bot Zero: Regeneration chamber? Elaborate please.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::sighs::

Host XO_Wells says:
Bot: It isn't much of a life for him.  But since he is ill, perhaps there is something we can do?  There are three highly skilled doctors here now.

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::listening to what was being said::

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
All: One part will make it through, the other will stay behind.  And yes, there are a few others left from the original.

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
<2OPS> ::listening to what was being said::

CEO_Cmdr_Damien says:
<CEO2> Bot Zeto: Regeneration chamber? Elaborate please.

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
ALL:  I've got a question.  Is there anyway to tell who is the "real" person as opposed to the "double"?

Host XO_Wells says:
Ec’Thel’Ion: So, every time you go through the gateway a copy is made?  Why aren't there dozens of Jekyls?

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
XO: Sir, might it be best if we regrouped with the Huron "Leftovers" as you called them?  We can pool together all we have before putting forth a plan.

CEO_Cmdr_Damien says:
::feels odd about the echo::

BOT_Zetopentalite says:
CEO:  When Jekyl's other half died, and he went through the gateway, the gateway substituted another half of him with our technology.  Unfortunately, that also included some Borg technology as well.  In essence, Jekyl is an individual that consists of Betazoid, Borg, and Bot technology.  The bot technology can not survive in your world, so he needs to come here to regenerate himself.  Since he is one of a kind, we are not sure how to treat him.  We tried to relate what we knew about the Borg, and created a chamber that he can use to regenerate, but something went wrong.  Each time he passes through the gateway, it effects him .. mentally and physically.

XO_Wells2 says:
OPS: As far as I understand, both are as real as the other.

CEO_Cmdr_Damien says:
XO: Commander, for the safety of the crew, and of the universe, you must realize that we must kill Jekyl.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
~~~2CNS:  He dreams.~~~

XO_Wells2 says:
CMO: Yes, I think we should all band together.  We are stronger in numbers.  We need to think of away to all escape here.

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
XO's: We think it's something about the hybrid nature, the gateway "recognizes" he's not natural and doesn't compound the problem.

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<CMO Copy> Self: We're wasting our time...

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::nods at Cmdr_Wells::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
<2CNS>~~~CNS: Yes, I know.~~~

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Whips around:: CMO Copy: Get stuffed.

Host XO_Wells says:
Ec’Thel’Ion: Where are we exactly?  Was this place… created by the gateway or did it exist before?

BOT_Zetopentalite says:
Ec:  If I may ::referring to the XO's comment.::

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
Zeto: Go ahead, I'm a relative newcomer here myself anyway.

Host XO_Wells says:
CEO: Kill him?

CEO_Cmdr_Damien says:
XO: Yes. He is Borg. There's no telling what it will do if we allow it to survive.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
All:  It would be a mercy killing.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
<2CNS>:  ~~~CNS:  Advocating murder now, I see.~~~

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CMO: The others are not far.  Probably resting.
CEO/ CNS: If you were in his situation, wouldn't you want to live?  Even as his life is, it's still known.

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
CNS: You're in favor of this? There've been people brought back from full Borg before, and this is not even full. You know that he's a sentient being, and not part of any collective.

BOT_Zetopentalite says:
XO:  This world was built by our Creators, who resembled Ec's kind.  They were white-skinned individuals.  Our world was once very peaceful until the Borg came.  Our Creators were able to use the essence of this world to add to our substance, which made us immune to the Borg.  Our Creators were not able to duplicate the essence for themselves, and they were taken by the Borg, killed.  The Borg left our world, and although we no longer had the Creators direction, our world became peaceful again, until Jekyl and Ec's people came to our world.  Something activated the drones that were here, originally killed or left here and inactivated themselves.  When Ec's people came, the Borg came back.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
All:  He's gone mad.  I don't know if there is anyway to cure that.

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<CMO Copy> All: If the CNS says he can't be cured, I'm for off-ing him.

Host XO_Wells says:
CEO: Let's figure out what to do.  Its not just Jekyl, its who leaves, who stays, and what are the alternatives?

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Glares at her copy again::

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
XO: Not really a choice.   I thought I was the real one when "I" left.  Very good copy.

CEO_Cmdr_Damien says:
::looks at his copy:: XO: I know what I would want done to my copy...

XO_Wells2 says:
CMO/CNS: Couldn't the Borg tech be removed, even partially?

CEO_Cmdr_Damien says:
<CEO2>::looks at his copy:: XO: I know what I would want done to my copy...

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
Cmdr Wells: Of course. I'd need sickbay equipment here though. Restraining Jekyl would be hard enough.

BOT_Zetopentalite says:
ALL:  Now that Jekyl exists, every time he enters our world, and mostly because he has to, the Borg sense his presence and come back.

XO_Wells2 says:
CEO/CEO: You mean you'd see each other die and the survivor go insane?

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
XO_Wells2: The downside is that I know nothing of Bot tech. I'd have to remove that too and I know little to nothing about it.

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CEO: It's easy to say what you'd want done when you think you're the original.

XO_Wells2 says:
Bot: What kinda medical facility you got here?

BOT_Zetopentalite says:
XO:  The Borg can not be removed from Jekyl.  It is what keeps him alive.

CEO_Cmdr_Damien says:
XO: Who's to say one would go insane? You know, we need to go back through the gateway and put an end to this. We'll bring Jekyl with us, then figure out how to deal with it.

Host XO_Wells says:
CEO: I think we should capture Jekyl and restrain him until we know what we are going to do.

BOT_Zetopentalite says:
Cmdr Wells:  Medical facility?

CEO_Cmdr_Damien says:
<CEO2>XO: Who's to say one would go insane? You know, we need to go back through the gateway and put an end to this. We'll bring Jekyl with us, then figure out how to deal with it.

XO_Wells2 says:
Bot: Workshop?

BOT_Zetopentalite says:
Cmdr. Wells:  What is a workshop?

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
Bot: Where our doctor works.  
CMO: We have limited facilities.

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
Ec’Thel’Ion: Then, maybe the help of another doctor? I assume you had one on your away team.

XO_Wells2 says:
Self: I give up.

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::she looks to her "twin", seeing that they are both thinking of the same thing, getting back to see Kevin and the children, Kyleigh gives a reassuring glance that the right solution will turn up soon.::

XO_Wells2 says:
CEO: And leave our counterparts at the mercy of the Borg?  You don’t like yourself much, do you?

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
<2OPS> ::she gives her "twin" an 'I know' glance in return::

CEO_Cmdr_Damien says:
XO: You're the one who want a nice and tidy solution. We may have to kill them.

CEO_Cmdr_Damien says:
<CEO2>XO: You're the one who want a nice and tidy solution. We may have to kill them.

Host XO_Wells says:
CNS/CMO: I want you two to figure out options to treat Jekyl.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::sighs::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<CMO Copy> Talora: You know next to nothing on this. How are YOU supposed to help?

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CEO: That's only tidy for the one who is "chosen".  How do you make that choice?

XO_Wells2 says:
CEO/CEO2/OPS/OPS2: I want you two to work with Commander Ec’Thel’Ion on how to rework the gateway to reverse what happened or give me options.

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Glares back:: CMO Copy: Alright, knock it off. I'm gonna do what I can. Shut it.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
<2CNS>::sighs::

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
Cmdr_Wells:  Understood.

CEO_Cmdr_Damien says:
::crosses his arms:: Ec: How am I supposed to know?

CEO_Cmdr_Damien says:
<CEO2>::crosses his arms:: Ec: How am I supposed to know?

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
<2OPS>Cmdr_Wells:  Understood as well.  We'll come up with something to get back to some sense of normalcy.

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<CMO Copy> ::Shuffles over to CNS2:: CNS2: So Mikal...what cha think about this all?

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CEO: That's the point, Commander.  You don't know, so just offing one isn't the solution.  If it was, you wouldn't have come here as Jekyl would be...complete.

XO_Wells2 says:
XO_Wells: How are we going to get everybody safe?  I don't want anyone left here.

BOT_Zetopentalite says:
ALL:  The point is, we should probably get to the castle.  It's the only safe place here, and Borg may come any minute, now that Jekyl is here.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
<2CNS>CMO copy: I think one of each of us is going to have to die.  I'm hoping it’s not going to be me.

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
All: We could move to our camp.  Let you all see what we have to work with.

Host XO_Wells says:
Cmdr_Wells: Neither do I.  I sure would like to let the Captain know what trouble he's gotten us into by telling us to go after the screwball.

CEO_Cmdr_Damien says:
::rubs his chin:: Ec: If only we knew more about the creation process the gateway uses. But it is impenetrable to scans.

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<CMO Copy> CNS2: That can't be right. I refuse to believe that. You're not gonna be the one to die, trust me. ::Smiles at him::

CEO_Cmdr_Damien says:
<CEO2>::rubs his chin:: Ec: If only we knew more about the creation process the gateway uses. But it is impenetrable to scans.

Jekyl says:
::Can hear the Borg as he dreams, calling him, telling him to come to them.::

CEO_Cmdr_Damien says:
CEO: I am tired of the echo.

XO_Wells2 says:
XO: It's up to the tech guys here to figure the gateway out.

CEO_Cmdr_Damien says:
<CEO2>CEO: I am tired of the echo.

Host XO_Wells says:
Cmdr_Wells: And let the Doctors figure out the best thing to do with Jekyl.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
<2CNS>  ::sidles over closer to the CMO copy::  CMO copy:  Are you going to protect me? ::seductive::

BOT_Zetopentalite says:
XO:  There is no way to separate him.  He will die.  This is his only chance at survival, and our Bot community is willing to put up with the Borg to allow him to live.  It is .. what it is.

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<CMO Copy> CNS2: You know it. ::Winks at him::

CEO_Cmdr_Damien says:
XO: There's only one thing I can think of to do. But it's not a great option. We go back through, taking everyone with us. Then we dismantle the gateway, forever. Who survives is not up to us then.

CEO_Cmdr_Damien says:
<CEO2>XO: There's only one thing I can think of to do. But it's not a great option. We go back through, taking everyone with us. Then we dismantle the gateway, forever. Who survives is not up to us then.

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
All: Then let's get to our camp, let you meet the crew of the self named "USS Remnant".

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
<2CNS>CMO copy:  You know, you and I should slip away the first chance we get.  No one will notice us missing in this crowd.  ::smiles::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Nods and follows along with the crowd::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<CMO Copy> CNS2: Behave here, Mikal. We still gotta get to camp first. ::smiles lightly::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::sighs and follows along::

Host XO_Wells says:
Cmdr_Wells: I'm thinking it should be each crewman's individual decision on what should be done about there individual situation; one go through, one stays behind both die whatever...

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
<2CNS>::leans forward and whispers in her ear::  CMO copy:  I can hardly wait to get my tent up.

XO_Wells2 says:
XO_Wells: We're staying, no matter what, aren't we?

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
XO's: Both go through, but one is rejected so to speak.

BOT_Zetopentalite says:
XO:  There is hope for your kind .. We now have found that if one of your kind (referring to each double) does die, as long as you carry your dead double through the gateway, the original will be returned through the gateway.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::is glad one of him is having a good time::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<CMO Copy> CNS2: If I didn't know any better, it's already pitched. ::Follows the group leaving CNS2 behind::

Host XO_Wells says:
Cmdr_Wells: I'd think we'd have to.  We are leader of this team, we brought them here.  We have to stay behind.

XO_Wells2 says:
XO_Wells: I'm thinking about ZG just now.

Host XO_Wells says:
Cmdr_Wells: As am I.

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Rolls her eyes at the spectacle behind her and continues to follow along with the group::

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
XO's: There's a difference for you.  When your team goes back, Starfleet will be told.  Won't be covered up by a pair of selfish, greedy, academics.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::stops suddenly::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
<2CNS>  All:  The Borg.  We can sense them.  They are coming.

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Whips around:: CNS: What is it, Mikal?

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
All:  They are coming.  We must hide!

CEO_Cmdr_Damien says:
CNS: You know, that’s just freaking' great. Why do you always have bad news?

ACTION:  The Borg are 3 miles away, but have not sensed the presence of the AT.

Jekyl says:
::Exits the regeneration chamber, knowing the Borg will soon arrive.::

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CNS: You can read them?  That could have been a good early warning system.  Come, what weapons we have are just over the rise.

CEO_Cmdr_Damien says:
<CEO2>CNS: You know, that’s just freaking' great. Why do you always have bad news?

Host XO_Wells says:
Ec’Thel’Ion: Only one of us has to get back, to warn Starfleet.

Jekyl says:
::Heads for the camp.::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
<2CNS>  CEO/CEO2:  I don't know.  My mother just made me this way.

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
XO: Only one has to make it.  Both have to try.

BOT_Zetopentalite says:
::Follows along with the others, in case they need assistance, ready to call the other Bots to action for defending his new friends.::

Host XO_Wells says:
Ec’Thel’Ion: You're double is already out of here.  What would happen if you went through?

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
All:  Hurry.  They aren't yet aware of us.

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
Ec: Or any of the rest of your crew.

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
XO: At least as I understand it both have to try.  Gateway rejects me, it knows I am "of here" or some mumbo jumbo.

Jekyl says:
::Knows the Borg are close.  Picks up a few rocks and sticks, not really sure who he can trust at this point.::

Host XO_Wells says:
CNS: Don't start a panic, if they're coming we can't stop it.  Let's keep our heads and resolve the current problem.

BOT_Zetopentalite says:
Ec:  It knows you already exist on the other side.

CEO_Cmdr_Damien says:
::raises a fist and hits his double, sick of the echo:: CEO2: Get your own ideas!

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<CMO Copy> Cmdr Wells: Sir...we might want to move quickly and quietly.

BOT_Zetopentalite says:
CEO:  Your kind are very interesting.  Why do you hate each other?

Host XO_Wells says:
Ec’Thel’Ion: It takes a telepath to work the gate.  We have a telepath with us if that helps.

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Passes the rise and enters the camp, moving for the "armory".::  All: Sticks, spears, bows, a few failed attempts at fire arms.

CEO_Cmdr_Damien says:
<CEO2> Alright already!

Host XO_Wells says:
CNS: Go where?  Where won't the Borg find us here?

CEO_Cmdr_Damien says:
Bot: It's one of those love-hate things.

Jekyl says:
::Arrives at the camp just before the others, and climbs a tree so he can watch and observe.::

Host XO_Wells says:
Ec’Thel’Ion: How many life forms are on this planet?  Borg usually go after large groups, not just a handful.

BOT_Zetopentalite says:
CEO:  Your kind have so much potential, but you waste it on things that are not necessary.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::grabs a bow and some arrows::

William_Stradiot says:
:: Walks into the Armory:: Ec: Ec, where've you been? We've got incoming...again.

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Grabs bracers and straps them on, then grabs a sling.::  XO: Depends if you count the Bots.  It's mostly Jekyl they want, if the Bots are right.

Host XO_Wells says:
Ec’Thel’Ion: So, you think we should sacrifice Jekyl?

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
<2CNS>::uneasy, looking around::

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CMO William: Ran into "Cavalry", although us being here was a surprise to them.  Meet the crew of the USS...
All: Sorry, never asked your ship?

Jekyl says:
::Listens, not really liking this XO Wells guy.::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Grins as she sees a nearby fluret:: Self: Mine. ::Picks up the sword and twirls it around expertly::

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
Ec: Cherokee.

Jekyl says:
::Senses the CNS, getting a bit nervous now that there is someone that may know he's here.::

William_Stradiot says:
::nods and turns to see the Rag-tag group from Starfleet:: Ec: Got it. They our backup?

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CMO William: The crew of the USS Cherokee.  Cherokee, meet Doctor William Stradiot.

Host XO_Wells says:
Ec’Thel’Ion: I'm not a killer.  I want other options.  How do we rework the gateway to allow us all passage.  It’s a mechanical thing,  It should be adaptable.

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CMO William: Not by plan or choice.

Host XO_Wells says:
::Sees a new face:: William: Doctor.

William_Stradiot says:
Cherokee Crew: Pleasure to meet you all...::Sees a familiar face:: T-...Talora?

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
~~~2CNS:  It's her husband.~~~

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
<2CNS>::sighs::

ACTION:  The AT arrive at a walled off camp, with trenches and dirt walls to slow invaders, with lots of tunnels and trenches as shelter.

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
XO/ All: There's not much quick choice.  They are coming whether you want it or not.  We fight well, we live.  The camp is built best we could low tech.  Lots of trenches and dirt walls, try to bottle them up and reduce their number advantage.  I normally take the front line and push, the rest provide firepower backup.  It's tiring, but has worked.

BOT_Zetopentalite says:
ALL:  I don't mean to break up the family reunion, but we are not safe.

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Looks over at the Doctor:: William: Will...It's good to see you again.

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
All: On the bright side, the Borg seem to be less adept at adaptation, so it may still work.

Jekyl says:
::Tries to get a better position to hear the people down below and repositions himself, dropping a few leaves from the tree.::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::looks up::

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<CMO William> ::Comes closer:: Talora: No...you aren't Talora. You're a fake. You're not real. Prove it. ::Hears the Bot:: Bot: of course. ::Picks up his normal weapon of choice::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
~~~Jekyl:  There you are.~~~

ACTION:  The CNS has a surprise visitor, literally at his feet.

Jekyl says:
::Falls down to the ground at the CNS's feet, after he loses his balance.::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
XO:  Found him.  ::holds onto Jekyl::

Host XO_Wells says:
Ec’Thel’Ion: So, with all our education and experience the best course of action we can come up with is physical combat like a bunch of barbarians?  I'm really disappointed in this bunch.  Think people.  We are better than this.

Jekyl says:
~~~CNS: They will kill me!  Let me go!~~~  ::Struggles to free himself.::

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
Jekyl: Welcome back.  Your friends are here for you.  Both camps it seems.

Jekyl says:
Ec:  They want to kill me.  I heard him!  ::Points to Cmdr. Wells.::  He wants me dead!

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
~~~Jekyl:  Relax.  We're here to protect you.~~~

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
::Steps back:: Self: He doesn't know me...he doesn't recognize me...

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
Jekyl: They don't know what they're talking about yet.  They are Starfleet, relax.

ACTION:  The Borg turn as one and move in another direction.

Jekyl says:
CNS:  Then let me go!  ::Struggles to still free himself.::

CEO_Cmdr_Damien says:
XO: I know at least 10 different ways to kill a man bare handed. They taught me that in the Academy.

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
All: Well, not relax, they'll be here soon.  Did you bring anything that might help?  Starfleet must at least have had word that our tech doesn't work here.

Jekyl says:
ALL:  They are coming!  They know I am here.  We are not safe!  The Borg!  We must get out of here!

William_Stradiot says:
Talora: Because you aren't from here, remember? The one he knew is a whole universe away. You haven't picked up on that yet? Jeez, get with the program. We've got work to do. ::Picks her own weapon::

Host XO_Wells says:
Jekyl: You idiot, I'm the only one here that doesn't want you dead.

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
Jekyl: You know a safer place?  Stay here or odds are, they'll catch you.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
All:  They've adjusted their course, so to speak.  I believe Jekyl is right.

BOT_Zetopentalite says:
XO:  Jekyl can sense the Borg, and the Borg can sense him.  If he says they are coming, they will be here shortly!

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
Bot: They always know, and it's always leading them to the same place.

William_Stradiot says:
CNS: How long do we have?

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::lets go of Jekyl::

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::steps towards the nearest ladder to look out.::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::hostile:: CMO William:  How should I know.

Jekyl says:
Ec: You have been a good friend.  ::Stands to his feet, but does not run.::  
CNS:  Thank you.  I can sense you are a good person.  I am hoping my sanity is still there at least a little.

William_Stradiot says:
::Steps closer:: CNS: Careful. I don't know who you are, or what your problem is, but I hope you're on our side for this.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
<2CNS> Jekyl:  Do us a favor and run away from here.

BOT_Zetopentalite says:
ALL:  If Jekyl is taken by the Borg, they will find a way to assimilate our world.  It is very important they do not take him.

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
2CNS: Don't tell him that!

Jekyl says:
CNS2:  You... are mean!

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
CMO William:  Back off, mister.  ::scowls::

Jekyl says:
CNS2:  If I have it my way, I will tell the Borg to take you first!

CEO_Cmdr_Damien says:
<CEO2> ::coughs, and speaks up:: All: I am still willing to kill Jekyl.

Host XO_Wells says:
All: We need to keep moving.  Let's go, keep Jekyl close and don't hurt the miserable little toad.

CMO_LtJg_Talora says:
<CMO Copy> ::Steps between the CNS and William:: CNS/William: Alright you two. Put it away. We don't have time for this.

Jekyl says:
CEO2:  And you will be next!  ::Picks a stone from his pocket and throws it at the CEO2.::

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
XO: You want to fight the Borg in the open?  There is shelter here and...
Jekyl: Stop that!

Host XO_Wells says:
All: If Jekyl is captured by the Borg, we'll have a war on our hands.  I'm trying to avoid bloodshed.

Jekyl says:
Ec:  He means to hurt me!  ::Referring to the CEO2.::

CEO_Cmdr_Damien says:
XO: This is stupid. It's obvious we need to kill Jekyl. For the greater good!

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
XO: All right, then let's try it your way.  Fight on the run.  
Jekyl: And you threw a rock at him, that's gotta help.  Come on, let's try a new tactic, let the toasters adapt.

Host XO_Wells says:
Cmdr_Wells: Ever get the feeling your crew is working against you?

XO_Wells2 says:
XO-Wells: Yup.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
<2CNS> :: agrees with whichever Jose that was::

Jekyl says:
::Says nothing more, but still listens to Ec.::

Host Ec`Thel`Ion says:
All: You want to debate who gets to live and die?  We'll do that after the walking junkyards go home with their tubules between their legs.  For now, we need to work together...fight together.  Whatever.
