ACTION:  THE MEN IN THE YELLOW SCRUBS MOVE IN AND GRAB RILLIAN, LIFTING HER UP AND PLACING HER ON A GURNEE - STRAPPING HER DOWN AS THEY DO SO

Civ_Neoma_Jazz says:
::Sees the situation:: *CEO*: Chief I think you better get down tot he shuttle bay. Your  creation is about ready to kill the Doc ....

CO_Torbin says:
CEO: Based on information from the Doctor, we apparently had a Q running loose on my ship for a short period of time, directly after which the XO and myself discovered a Ensign that neither of us recognized..  since the Doctor mentioned that Thumbelina was last seen with what I believe was a Q, he probably caused her to become human.

Steve_AGM1 says:
ACTION:  HALL AND HUNTER ARE ORDERED OFF THE TRUCK

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
*Jazz*:  I didn't build Thumbelina.. We retrieved her from the Q'orphod vessel.  She's human.  Deal.

@CTO:  ::Whispers::  I am aware of this.  Stay alert.

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:

ACTION:  AS THE DOCTOR WORKS, HIS HAND BRUSHES AGAINST HER NOW BARE ARM - IMMEDIATELY ALL OF THE HAIRS ON HER LEFT ARM LEAP ON END LIKE HIT WITH A JOLT OF STATIC ELECTRICITY

SO-Lt-Mark-Anthony says:
CO_Torbin: Since sensors and COMsignals are unreliable, suggest the shuttle craft?

Civ_Neoma_Jazz says:
::Gives the Doc the look of shut up and butt out::

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
Self:  Electromagnetic field for a planet this size... inconsistent with the readings we are getting.  How is that possible.... no technological signatures.. just energy.. lots of it.

CO_Torbin says:
::Hears the SO and doesn't answer...... for the moment::  CEO: Can you think of any other option besides a shuttle-craft?

CSO_Rillian says:
@::Cringes at his touch.......noting what she felt::

EO_Thumbelina says:
::Exits the TL back to deck 24 and walks to the maintenance bay in silence.. Walking inside and looking over the mess::

TO_Booker says:
::Start to walks to shuttlebay 2 and get in a shuttle::

Steve_AGM1 says:
ACTION:  THE DOOR TO THE XO AND CTO'S JAIL CELL SLIDES OPEN, AND TWO TECHS, EACH WITH A BATON, STEP INSIDE

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
CO: I don't think its a jamming signal... jamming fields we can detect.. this is something completely different.

Civ_Neoma_Jazz says:
Aloud:  What happened in here?  The Doc not pick up his toys?

CO_Torbin says:
CEO: If it's not a jamming signal, then what is it and how do we bypass it?

Steve_AGM1 says:
ACTION: THE DOCTOR CUTS OFF ALL OF THE CSO'S CLOTHING WITH THE SKILL OF A SURGEON - AS HE FINISHES, HE ADJUSTS THE TENSION ON THE RESTRAINTS, MAKING SURE THEY ARE TIGHT

CTO_Lt_Hunter says:
~~~~CSO: You still ok?~~~~

TO_Booker says:
Computer: Delete all beam outs from this shuttle!

CSO_Rillian says:
@::Is terribly cold.........extremely frightened........and very embarrassed::

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
Torbin: Standby.. I'm going to look at these energy signatures again.. ::Goes back to scanning::

CMO_Endo says:
TL: Deck 24

EO_Thumbelina says:
::Looks at the CIV rather annoyed and then turns:: Computer: begin bio-sweep level 4.. remove bath fluid.. ::begins to pick up things from the floor and put them away::

CO_Torbin says:
::Nods and waits for the CEO to elaborate::

Steve_AGM1 says:
ACTION:  THE TECH LOOKS AT THE CTO, POINTS TO HIM, AND MOTIONS HIM OUT OF THE ROOM

CSO_Rillian says:
~~~~CTO: That depends on your definition of okay.~~~~

CTO_Lt_Hunter says:
@::Does as ordered::

CTO_Lt_Hunter says:
@~~~CSO: They are separating me from the XO....~~~~

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
Torbin:  This isn't a blanket energy field on the planet surface.. its thousands of separate localized energy fields, all side by side, some in dense clumps.. some spread out, and in the buildings and what not.

CTO_Lt_Hunter says:
@Tech:  What is going on?

Steve_AGM1 says:
ACTION:  THE DOCTOR BEGINS PUSHING THE GURNEE OUT OF THE ROOM, WHILE THE TECH CLEANS UP THE REMAINS OF THE CSO'S CLOTHING

CO_Torbin says:
CEO: So how does that help us?

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
Anthony: I'm not up on xenology.. Is there such a thing as energy life forms taking corporeal form?

CMO_Endo says:
::Arrives on deck 24, walks into the maintenance bay::

CSO_Rillian says:
@~~~~CTO: There bringing you in here........but they are taking me out.......~~~~

Civ_Neoma_Jazz says:
::Shrugs and find a place to sit:: Aloud:  Reminds me of my room righy before laundry day. I tend  to just drop my laundry where ever there is a clean place on the floor::

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
All:  That's all I can come up with... I see the people.. but when scanned.. its just energy.

Steve_AGM1 says:
ACTION:  THE CTO IS LED INTO A STERILE, YELLOW ROOM.  A TECH TOSSES SOME BITS OF CLOTHING INTO WHAT APPEARS TO BE AN INCINERATOR

CO_Torbin says:
::Comes to the same conclusion just as the CEO verbalizes it to the SO::

SO-Lt-Mark-Anthony says:
::Begins to look up any histrocal facts on the CEO's comment::  CEO: Just one moment

CTO_Lt_Hunter says:
@~~~CSO:  Hmm.. .. ..Perhaps it time to get away.~~~

CMO_Endo says:
::Stays back by the door after hearing Jazz speak::

CTO_Lt_Hunter says:
@::Rush the tech attempting to tackle him::

CSO_Rillian says:
@::Continues to struggle against the restraints:: Doc: Let me go!

EO_Thumbelina says:
::Finishes putting things away and looks at the clean room.. frowns and picks up a padd.. making notes for engineering to alter the facility:: CIV: I require the use of humanoid facilities

Steve_AGM1 says:
@ <DOC> CSO:  Let an Alien go....it says...::Makes a note that aliens have a sense of humor::

CSO_Rillian says:
@Doc: Don't make fun of me........I am serious and I am NOT alien!

Civ_Neoma_Jazz says:
EO:  As in the use of the waste excrement facilities or other facilities?

EO_Thumbelina says:
::Stares coldly at the CIV:: CIV: Your statement is illogical.. 

SO-Lt-Mark-Anthony says:
CEO_Lt_Tyfair: There is only entry in the data base. Captain James T. Kirk encounter with these type of beings.

Steve_AGM1 says:
ACTION:  THE TECH IS SOLID, AND EASILY OUTWEIGHS THE CTO (IN MASS) OF ABOUT 20 LBS - HE STAGGERS BACK, BUT SWINGS THE BATON UP INTO THE CTO'S TORSO.  AN ELECTRIC JOLT SEARING THROUGH THE BETAZOID

CTO_Lt_Hunter says:
@::Lets out a vocal and mental scream:::

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
Anthony:  I don't care who met them... is it possible?

Civ_Neoma_Jazz says:
EO:  You stated you need a facility.  I asked do you need one for habitation, removal of excrement,  or another kind of facility?

SO-Lt-Mark-Anthony says:
CEO_Lt_Tyfair: Yes it is possible.

EO_Thumbelina says:
CIV: I require temp quarters.

SO-Lt-Mark-Anthony says:
CEO_Lt_Tyfair: Depending on your race.

Steve_AGM1 says:
ACTION:  RILLIAN IS WHEELED INTO A LARGE CIRCULAR ROOM.  THE MURMUR OF DISCUSSION RUMBLES THROUGH THE AIR AS RILLIAN IS ROLLED BEFORE AN AUDIENCE OF AT LEAST 100 SCIENTISTS AND DOCTORS....

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
Torbin:  I think we have a hypothesis.. we aren't dealing with a jamming field.. but a race of energetic beings

CTO_Lt_Hunter says:
@::Shrugs to regain his bearings::

CO_Torbin says:
CEO: Alright..  so how do we go about dealing with this and getting my away team back in one piece?

XO_Hall says:
@~~~~CSO:  They have taken Hunter.  I am here by myself.  I am continuing my search to get out...  Stay in contact.  Can you speak to Hunter.  If so, you will need to keep me apprised of his situation as well.~~~~

CSO_Rillian says:
@::Cheeks burn red with embarrassment::

Steve_AGM1 says:
ACTION:  THE TECH STRIKES THE CTO IN THE SMALL OF HIS BACK, KNOCKING HIM UPRIGHT

SO-Lt-Mark-Anthony says:
CEO_Lt_Tyfair: Suggest we try a damping field on our Com channel so to shield it?

CMO_Endo says:
::Still in the back, watching::

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
Torbin:  Transport enhancers and another team.

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
Anthony:  We can't disrupt their energy patterns... That would be murder.

CTO_Lt_Hunter says:
@All: OOCCHHH ~~~~All: OOCCHHH~~~~

Steve_AGM1 says:
@<Doctor>  All:  thank you.....thank you!  as you know, our suspicions of.....Carbon Based lifeforms had always been that...suspicions....now...we have proof....

XO_Hall says:
@::Hall looks at the door he and the CTO entered earlier::

CSO_Rillian says:
@::Hears Will.........but is too embarrassed and frightened and overwhelmed to respond::

CTO_Lt_Hunter says:
@::Pulls out his Type I phaser and points it at the tech::

Civ_Neoma_Jazz says:
EO:  One moment and I will see to it that they are provided. IN the mean time ::Reaches in bag pulls out a silver jumpsuit::  The articles you are wearing have been soiled.  So that they may be cleaned could you put this on?

SO-Lt-Mark-Anthony says:
CEO_Lt_Tyfair: No. I mean filter out the energy readings for our Com-signals.

CO_Torbin says:
CEO: Alright..  but tell me this, can we hide ourselves from these energy beings?

EO_Thumbelina says:
::Stands up straight:: CIV: fulfill my request.. ::goes back tot he padd::

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
Anthony:  I don’t know how.. these energy patterns are dynamic.. They are never at set frequency of modulation.  They always change.

XO_Hall says:
@Self:  Mind over matter.  Maybe I can knock the door down.  ::Moves to the back of the room directly in front of the door and readies himself to run.::

Steve_AGM1 says:
ACTION:  THE TECH SLAMS THE BATON UP INTO THE CTO'S ELBOW, SENDING THE WEAPON FLYING, A SECOND SHOT TO THE BACK OF HIS KNEE, BUCKLING IT

CSO_Rillian says:
@~~~~XO: Will......they got my combadge........It was taken from me.........I'm in a room with.......at least a hundred people.........they are talking about carbon based life forms.........and us being only suspected before........~~~~

Civ_Neoma_Jazz says:
EO : Give me  second.  And to as they say 'humor me'  try on the jumpsuit.  It might not be very fashionable but it is functional.

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
Torbin:  Clothing.. and fake energy signal generators.. Take a energy signature from another area of the planet.. and set our comm-badges to emit that exact same signal.  It should mask our life-signs.

Steve_AGM1 says:
ACTION:  THE AUDIENCE APPLAUDS AT THE DOCTORS REVELATION

CTO_Lt_Hunter says:
@::Is pissed.....sums his strength again and attack using a karate kick:::

EO_Thumbelina says:
CIV: Your attempts at altering my appearance are unwelcome

CSO_Rillian says:
@::Clasps her chattering jaw tightly..........very cold........but her cheeks burn hot::

XO_Hall says:
@~~~~CSO: Listen to see if you can find out how they breathe or what they breathe.~~~~

XO_Hall says:
@::Runs at the door and..............::

Steve_AGM1 says:
@ <Doctor>  As you can see.....it exists in a solid, non-excited state.  And, as we hypothesized....is not powered by energy.

Civ_Neoma_Jazz says:
EO:  Ok with me.  ::Shrugs: Just to be kid.  ::Aside::  For once ..  I  offered this don't have to I'm not ordering you to.

CO_Torbin says:
CEO: Make preparations then..  What size away team would you suggest to be safe?

Steve_AGM1 says:
ACTION:  HALL SLAMS INTO A VERY SOLID DOOR - THOSE WATCHING IN THE CAMERA TAKE NOTE.

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
Torbin: I don't know.. I'm just an Engineer.

TO_Booker says:
Computer: Open Shuttlebay 2 door!

CSO_Rillian says:
@~~~~XO: Will, I am strapped to a table.......I can't move.......and the Doctor won't listen to me.......or answer any of my questions.~~~~

CSO_Rillian says:
@::Struggles as hard as she can against the restraints::

Civ_Neoma_Jazz says:
*CO*: Captain  request permission to place Thumbelina in the temporary quarters.

CSO_Rillian says:
@::Taking particular note of what the Doc is saying all the while::

EO_Thumbelina says:
CIV: Your orders are illogical.. Prime user has been nullified

SO-Lt-Mark-Anthony says:
CO_Torbin: Suggest 4 members. Me and the CEO with 2 security guards.

XO_Hall says:
@Self: ::Falls to ground and gets back up rubbing his arm::   My mind is not getting over that matter.

Steve_AGM1 says:
@  <Doctor>  ::Produces the energy scalpel and grabs Rillian's hand::

Steve_AGM1 says:
ACTION:  RILLIAN'S ARM SUDDENLY IS OVERCOME WITH THE SENSATION OF "PINS AND NEEDLES"

Civ_Neoma_Jazz says:
EO:  Define perimeter that they are illogical.

CO_Torbin says:
::Helpful response..  Stands up::  CEO: Alright..  make preparations for an away team of 5..  you, Mr. Anthony, two security officer's...  and myself..

XO_Hall says:
@~~~~CSO:  Listen to him.  If you here anything that is important, I need to know.~~~~

Steve_AGM1 says:
ACTION:  THE TECH DODGES THE CLUMSY KICK AND DRIVES THE BUTT OF THE BATON INTO THE CTO;S MIDSECTION, KNOCKING THE WIND FROM HIM

CSO_Rillian says:
@::Tries to knock the scalpel out of his hand.......feels the unusual sensation and cringes at it::

EO_Thumbelina says:
CIV: I am not one of your units.. your orders are irrelevant

TO_Booker says:
::Start to fly the shuttle out for the Claymore and gets into warp to get out of the Claymore sensors::

SO-Lt-Mark-Anthony says:
CO_Torbin: Aye sir.

CTO_Lt_Hunter says:
@::Tries to scream but is unable::

CSO_Rillian says:
@~~~~XO: They seem to be energy, Will.....not solid like us.......at least not solid as we know it.~~~~

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
Torbin:  Yessir.. ::Sends order to the replicator to replicate outfits based on the images from visual scans::

SO-Lt-Mark-Anthony says:
CEO_Lt_Tyfair: Lets get to work on those power generators you had an idea on.

Steve_AGM1 says:
@  <Doc>  ::Activates the scalpel::  Feisty......this wont hurt a bit......::grabs a tight hold on Rillian's left thumb::

CO_Torbin says:
*CIV*: Granted..

TO_Booker says:
Computer : Look for DNA of the CTO, CSO and XO!

Civ_Neoma_Jazz says:
EO: Ahh... I see... you are not a component of this crew?

CSO_Rillian says:
@::Pulls against his grip::

CSO_Rillian says:
@::Through clenched teeth:: Doc: You ain't seen feisty yet.

Civ_Neoma_Jazz says:
::Hears the CO:: EO:  You wish was granted. I know the perfect one for you.

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
Anthony:  Sure, let me grab some male signals from the planet.. and programs the computer to replicate some combadges with signal emitters.

XO_Hall says:
@::thinks: :~~~~CSO:  When he touches you do you feel any different sensations?~~~~

Steve_AGM1 says:
ACTION:  IN A FLASH, THE TIP OF THE ENERGY SCALPEL PRICKS THE END OF RILLIAN'S THUMB.  A DROP OF BLOOD FALLS INTO A GLASS BOWL - AND THE ASSEMBLED CROWD GASPS

EO_Thumbelina says:
CIV: location..

CO_Torbin says:
::Glad that the crew had the common sense not to argue with him about his leading the away team::  *Ryan* Lieutenant Commander Ryan, report to the bridge immediately.

CSO_Rillian says:
@~~~~XO: It feels like static energy.~~~~

Steve_AGM1 says:
ACTION: THE NOW INCAPCITATED CTO IS HOISTED ONTO A GURNEE AND STRAPPED DOWN

Civ_Neoma_Jazz says:
EO:  Junior officer quarters

CTO_Lt_Hunter says:
@~~~~CSO: They got me.~~~~~

Steve_AGM1 says:
<Computer>  TO:  Unable to comply

CTO_Lt_Hunter says:
@::Attempts to regain motor control::

EO_Thumbelina says:
CIV: Proceed.. ::Puts the padd down::

CSO_Rillian says:
@~~~~CTO: What are they doing with  you?~~~~

SO-Lt-Mark-Anthony says:
CEO_Lt_Tyfair: How are we going to know if its male or female?

CSO_Rillian says:
@::Attempts to pull her hand away with a yank::

TO_Booker says:
Computer: override it!

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
Torbin: Our disguises, plus new combadges are waiting for us in our quarters.  See you guys in a few minutes after we all change.

Steve_AGM1 says:
ACTION:  THE DOC DEACTIVATES THE SCAPEL AND HOISTS THE BOWL OVER HIS HEAD INTO THE LIGHT, THE BRIGHT RED BLOOD STANDING OUT IN THE BOWL

CTO_Lt_Hunter says:
@~~~~CSO:  I am strapped to some table.~~~

Civ_Neoma_Jazz says:
::Leads her out the door past the Doc, smug smile on her face:: EO:  This way ...

CO_Torbin says:
::Nods to the CEO::  CEO/CSO: Report to TR 1 once you get changed

CSO_Rillian says:
@~~~~CTO: Have they done anything else yet?~~~~

Steve_AGM1 says:
@  <DOC>  All:  Proof of life beyond Energy!

CMO_Endo says:
::Nods and steps aside::

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
Anthony:  ::Points to the visual scans::  The ones with breasts are female.. the ones without are male.  I just wrote an algorithm for the computer to compare energy location scans with visual location scans.

EO_Thumbelina says:
::Follows the CIV::

XO_Hall says:
@::Gets down on floor and crawls around the walls of the rooms, looking for any weak spot.  Then he gets up and starts to feel the wall::

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
::Nods and steps off the bridge to go get changed::

CO_Torbin says:
::Exits the bridge for his quarters preparing to change::

CSO_Rillian says:
@All: We are not rats to be put in some laboratory.......we are living breathing, beings!

CTO_Lt_Hunter says:
