<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<RESUME MISSION>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

OPS_LtCmdr_Chaser says:
:: sitting solemnly in her chair waiting ::

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Standing in the foyer of Tucker's planet government building admiring the decor while waiting for the President::

SO_Love says:
:: On the bridge prepared to implement the CEO's altered sensors.::

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Tugs on the neckline of her dress uniform:: XO/CTO: Is it just me or is it hot in here?

SO_Love says:
:: Glances over at the lock on the AT, knowing Cmd Chaser has everything covered, but it didn't hurt to have an extra eye out.::

XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
@::Standing near the CIV...looking at his PADD...glances up and notices the grand buildings interior...but looks back down to his PADD::  CIV: I'm always hot.

OPS_LtCmdr_Chaser says:
:: looks like she might be a million light years away ::

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
::working on the configurations for the SO::

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Raises an eyebrow at the XO's comment::

XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
::Looks up at the CIV::  CIV: Hot...as in warm...

CO_Capt_Randolph says:
::sitting in his chair on the bridge::

SO_Love says:
CEO:  I think we are set...

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Smiles:: XO: Of course, Sir....

XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
::smiles...and looks back down to his PADD::

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Wipes brow with her jacket sleeve::

ACTION: The AT can see various government busybodies scurrying about the hall as they wait for someone to greet them.

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Looks around at the government employees as they go from office to office, their heels clicking on the marble floors::

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
SO: Well I guess we should try it?

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Taps her toe on the floor::

SO_Love says:
::nods::  CEO:  Here goes... I will be surprised if it works... but hey... :: Activates the modified sensor grid and tries to scan the Breen ship.::

XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
@CIV/CTO: So many people yet no Prez...  ::looks around::

ACTION: The sensor scan returns little information about the Breen ship.

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@XO: Apparently punctuality is not one of their strong points...Sir...

SO_Love says:
:: Looks at the telemetry and shakes her head:: CEO:  Sorry ma'am.  I did not work.

XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
@CIV: Well I'm not sure...they seem pretty punctual...but not to the guests.  ::looks around again::

ACTION: The second set of large doors open and four people stride through heading for the away team.

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
SO: Damn it.

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Sees a set of doors open and four people headed her way:: XO: Is that them, Sir?  ::Nods::

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
SO: Wait a second.  Let me add a nuation rotation and see if that does the trick.

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@:: Straightens up and tugs the bottom of her jacket::

XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
@CIV: Must be...::sees the four people coming closer::  All: Get ready...

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Moves closer to the XO's side and smiles as the people approach::

OPS_LtCmdr_Chaser says:
:: twists a wisp of her mane round her finger ::

PrezTucker says:
@::strides up to the away team purposefully:: ALL: I apologize for my tardiness.  I had to deal with a situation.  :: Sees the XO::  You must be Commander Taylor?

SO_Love says:
:: Sits back and lightly taps her lips:: CEO:  OK... they say the third time is the charm... an old Earth saying.  Sooo... what next...

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
::hands fly across the board inputting the changes::

SO_Love says:
:: Glances over at her files going through decryption shaking her head at how long it was taking.  There must be something else involved in the files.::

XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
::smoothes his jacket and puts his PADD to his side...and looks to the woman in front of him::  Prez: Yes ma’am.. I am.  Commander Alexander Taylor of the USS Claymore...at your service...and you must be President Tucker.

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
SO: Ok now the nuation rotation frequencies are done.  Give it a shot.

XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
@::extends his hand to shake::

CTO_Lt_Blade says:
@::raises eyebrow::

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
SO: They should fall in place this time.

SO_Love says:
:: Wishes she could pester Alex for his thoughts on this.::  CEO:  The what?

PrezTucker says:
@::shakes the XO's hand::  I am.  ::motions to the other three people present:: Theses are my aides and advisors.

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Smiles and nods:: PrezTucker: A pleasure, Madam President.

CO_Capt_Randolph says:
SO:  Report.

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
SO: I have made the corrections and lets give it a shot.  The frequencies should fall into place.

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan saya:
@PrezTucker: LtCmdr. Ryan.

XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
@::Smiles and raises an eyebrow...and shakes the hands of the aides::

SO_Love says:
:: Straightens and turns to look at the captain.::  CO:  What ever they are using to block us is still doing a good job.  We have tried a couple of ways of possibly getting around it without any success.  As for what we do have, we are still reading the Breen with weapons powered down.

SO_Love says:
:: Glances at the engineer to acknowledged she heard.::

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Nods to the aides and smiles...the frozen smile causing her cheeks to twitch::

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
Out Loud: Damn it.

CO_Capt_Randolph says:
SO:  You don't think they are actually here to make a good impression do you?

SO_Love says:
CO:  Sir, I don't get why they are suddenly here at all.

PrezTucker says:
@XO: I see you've been able to take in much of the great hall.  Shall we retire to the conference room.  I'm afraid I don't have a lot of time with the election coming up, but we can at least set an agenda.

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Waits for the President and her aides to lead the way::

CO_Capt_Randolph says:
SO:  I don't trust them...and it goes past the Dominion War.  ::looks around and then to OPS::  OPS:  Do you have anything?

XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
@Prez: I think we would like that.  ::awaits the President to move forward to follow::

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
CO/SO: I have been wondering as well why I could decipher the symbols. Either.

OPS_LtCmdr_Chaser says:
:: snaps back from her daydream and looks at her console ::

SO_Love says:
:: Turns back to her station to try again::  CEO:  That is odd.  I am ready to try your new modification.

PrezTucker says:
@:motions to the aides and the Prez leads the way to the conference room which is through the large doors and down the corridor::

OPS_LtCmdr_Chaser says:
CO: Nothing Captain.

XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
@::follows behind the Prez and her aides::

SO_Love says:
:: Activates the modification.::

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Waits for the XO to follow the President and her aides then falls in step in behind him::

CO_Capt_Randolph says:
OPS:  Are you alright?

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
SO: I think I will have to make the rotations of the frequencies faster.

CTO_Lt_Blade says:
@::follows the XO and everyone else::

OPS_LtCmdr_Chaser says:
:: slides down in her chair as if somehow she might hide from the Captain ::  CO: Fine, sir-r.

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
SO: Give it a try now.

PrezTucker says:
@::after a short walk, enters the conference room and motions again to her aides and they all take seats on one side of a large table::

SO_Love says:
:: Shakes her head::  CEO:  Nope... but I have an idea.

CO_Capt_Randolph says:
OPS:  Hmmm...Fair enough.  CEO:  How about you...anything to report?

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
SO: Out with it girl.

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Enters the conference room and waits for the government aides to take their seats, then takes a seat on the opposite side of the table::

SO_Love says:
CEO:  Could we... somehow create a small electrical charge that might create a 'hole', from which we might be able to get a 'peek'.  Instead of trying the big piece, just a taste?

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
::turns head towards the captain:: CO: Sir I am still trying to get the computer to do the rotations faster but every time I think I have it........whoa........Is it possible that they know what we are doing?

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Touches the shinny table and admires the deep tone of the wood grain::

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
SO/CO: That would account for the quick changes.

CO_Capt_Randolph says:
CEO:  It is always a possibility.  What can you do to work around that?

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@PrezTucker: Excuse me, Madam President, but may I ask what type of wood this is?  It is quite beautiful.

XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
@::enters in behind and moves to the table...a highly polished rectangular shaped piece of wood...the rounded edges complete the grand table...takes a seat::  Prez:  This is quite a table. ::once again looks at the table::

OPS_LtCmdr_Chaser says:
:: a wave of melancholy washes over her as she looks around the bridge ::

SO_Love says:
:: Shrugs::  CEO:  Setting up a program would not be so difficult and I would be surprised if they did not expect us to try.  Anyone would.

PrezTucker says:
@XO: Thank you.

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
CO: Well there is a program that ......::stops short cause it was his ex-wife’s program::......Well sir there is a program in the computer that was used to make this ship completely invisible to all forms of sensor activities and its signatures bio included.

PrezTucker says:
@CIV:  It is made from a native tree called the Grutu Tree.  They grow over 100 meters tall and live for centuries.  This table was one of the first things made when the colony was established.  It was the original council table.

SO_Love says:
:: Not sure how that would help them read the Breen, turns around and starts to put together her idea.::

CO_Capt_Randolph says:
::looks at the CEO and raises an eyebrow::

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
CO/SO: We might be able to fool them into thinking that we are gone.  Maybe then we might get something accomplished.

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@PrezTucker: Is the Grutu tree a major commodity on your planet?

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
CO/SO: I mean if they thought we were no longer here they might stop using the blocker.

SO_Love says:
CEO:  That would mean us leaving the system, far enough to get out of their range... whatever that is.

PrezTucker says:
@CIV:  It is one of the many commodities we offer to the galaxy.  The Ferengi find places to sell the wood in areas of the galaxy that have none.  It's one of our most expensive exports.

CTO_Lt_Blade says:
@::waiting for the conversation to begin::

CO_Capt_Randolph says:
CEO:  If they turned there viewer on, they could still see us...

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
SO: No not with the program that ........the ......... ::clears throat:: CEO who was here before J'Trel, her program is there and it would make us invisible to all sensors and visuals.

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Nods:: PrezTucker: How long does it take for the trees to replenish themselves?

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
CO/SO: In all words we would cease to exist.

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
CO/SO: But we would still be here.

SO_Love says:
:: Shakes head:: CEO:  If we suddenly vanished, they would suspect something, which would kind of defeat the purpose.  Besides, that will not let us get through their current shielding.

PrezTucker says:
@CIV: That's the surprising thing!  They live for a long time, but they grow quickly.  We have entire continents of the planet developed into Grutu farms.

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
SO: The program is tied in with the holoemitters and we can project a picture of us leaving the area.
 
OPS_LtCmdr_Chaser says:
:: nods in agreement with the SO ::

CO_Capt_Randolph says:
CEO:  If you can get the program running, I don't mind seeing if it works.

XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
@Prez: What other exports do you all have?

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
SO: Your opinion?

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@PrezTucker: That's good.  ::Smiles::  Then there is no chance of deforestation?

SO_Love says:
CEO:  I am still not sure how that will help me break through their sensors, however, I am curious if it works.

OPS_LtCmdr_Chaser says:
:: clasps her hands in her lap watching the Breen ship floating ominously in space ::

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
ALL: The program is there and now all we have to do is use it.  That is why she put it there.

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
SO: Think of it like this, if we appear to leave, they should in all likelihood let their guard down just enough for us to break through.

SO_Love says:
CEO:  Why?  I would not.

PrezTucker says:
@XO: We export any number of raw materials on a daily basis.  They are all pretty basic, for the most part.  Things like iron, nickel, wood ::rubs the table:: and gold.

PrezTucker says:
@CIV: deforestation is a possibility...in a couple millenia, maybe...depending on demand, of course.  ::smiles::

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Is surprised and thinks: Gold?::

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
OPS: You think you can handle the power flows for each of the holoemitters hidden on the hull?  I know she had them put there when the ship had her last refit under her orders?

OPS_LtCmdr_Chaser says:
:: shrugs her shoulders :: CEO: I can attempt.

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
OPS: Believe me you can ‘cause you have catlike reflexes.

SO_Love says:
:: Runs her idea through a simulation.::

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@PrezTucker: I assume your conversationalists will not allow that to happen.  ::Smiles::

XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
@Prez: Interesting assortment...So might I inquire to your local business?  As well could you possibly tell me about those to sell to?

OPS_LtCmdr_Chaser says:
:: sighs and taps in to power distribution :: CEO: Ver-ry well.

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
CO: Sir, can we try it.  If it works we can run our own sensor block through theirs.

PrezTucker says:
@CIV: Oh, we don't have conversationalists...at least not in the sense you mean.  Our Grutu farmers realize it is in their own best interests not to over-harvest.

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
All:  The timing must be precise.

CO_Capt_Randolph says:
CEO:  Understood.

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
CO: I would appreciate it if you would help as well.

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
CO: I need someone on my engineering station. 

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Nods to the President:: PrezTucker: Interesting.  I would very much like to visit one of your Grutu farms sometime

PrezTucker says:
@XO: Please clarify...local businesses?  As for who we sell to, we believe in free enterprise.  The only exception we make is the Breen.  They have tried before, even through the Ferengi, but we have always caught them.

 CEO_Ens_Deer says:
Computer: Activate Bridge engineering station. Voice ID Ens. Deer ID code 8785 Pi alpha

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
<Computer> CEO: Voice Id recognized Bridge engineering station lockout released to Ens. Deer CEO.

CO_Capt_Randolph says:
CEO:  I don't believe I am equipped to be working with the ENG station.

CTO_Lt_Blade says:
@::cannot help admiring the Tucker's efficiency::

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Waits for the opportunity to inquire about Tucker's planet local security forces::

PrezTucker says:
@::motions to one of the aides to make a note of the CIV's request:: I'm sure we can arrange that.

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
CO: Sir it has to be manned.  I need you to input certain commands when I need you to.  It is a simple task.  I can not be in three places at the same time although sometimes I wish I were.

XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
@Prez: Your businesses...like the selling of goods...and such...Just to give us an idea of the happenings on the planet.

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
::smiles::

SO_Love says:
Hmmm... :: Under her breath::  Well... it has a small chance of succeeding... one out of five is not quite so bad...

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
OPS: I need you to draw power from all non-essential systems and channel them into the new holo-matrix showing on your board.

CO_Capt_Randolph says:
::walks over to the station::  Self:  That is why we have extra engineering  officers on the ship.  

OPS_LtCmdr_Chaser says:
:: takes the ship gray :: CEO: Aye.

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
CO: I am sending you the codes and commands to your station now.  Sir, I prefer you to help me as I am still getting used to my new staff.

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
::looks at the SO:  SO:  Now for the fun part.

PrezTucker says:
@XO: Oh, I see.  Well, all transactions are handled through the commerce department.  Orders are taken, dispersed to the appropriate facilities, then filled on-site, and delivered to the commerce department.  Payment is made to that department, and shipments sent from there.

SO_Love says:
:: Nods absently to the CEO.::

CO_Capt_Randolph says:
CEO:  I see.  I have received the codes...

PrezTucker says:
@XO: It's all very fair and efficient

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
*EO Thomas*:  I need you to pull all fusion reactors online and in hot standby.  Don't let the intermix formula unbalance.

SO_Love says:
*Engineering*:  I have something in mind...  ::Describes what she wants to do.::

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Nods and listens to the President:: PrezTucker: And do you import anything from other planets?

XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
@Prez: Sounds like a very organized system.

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
<EO Thomas> *CEO*: Understood ma'am.

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
SO: Now I need you to input your program for the sensor block that you developed.

SO_Love says:
:: Listening to the engineer telling her what he could do, she rereads through the other four trials and sighs.::  Darn...

SO_Love says:
:: Looks at the engineer.::  CEO:  Which one is that?

PrezTucker says:
@CIV: Actually, we import very little.  We have so much in the way of raw materials, that there is virtually no unemployment and we can fabricate anything we need.  Our only imports are luxury items such as exotic foods, and such.

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
ALL: And I have to get the show on the road.  ::begins to do her task and finishing her computations and getting things lined up to fall in place quickly::

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
SO: You did get that program of yours working didn't you???  The one where you originally tried to pierce the block in the first place?

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Nods:: PrezTucker: I see, that must be very convenient and efficient.

SO_Love says:
CEO:  The mock Borg one?  I can do that... I just need to reconfigure.

PrezTucker says:
@CIV: One of the reasons we are so well liked in the area.  ::smiles again::

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
SO: That is the one. ::smiles::

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
Computer: Tie in with engineering for voice commands.

PrezTucker says:
@XO: What facilities and areas of our planet would your team like to visit?  My aides will make all necessary arrangements.

SO_Love says:
:: Turns and quickly pulls of the configuration, taking a moment to reinstall it.::

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
::looks around the bridge:: ALL: Lets think positive here and make this work.

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@PrezTucker: I understand you have no planetary defense forces.  May I inquire about your local security forces?

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
All: Ok by the numbers.

XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
@::looks to the CIV giving the eyes of a good question::

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
OPS: you ready?

SO_Love says:
:: Nods with some doubt.:: CEO:  Set here.

CEO_Ens_Deer says:
SO: Good.

PrezTucker says:
@CIV: That's correct.  We have no real defenses, hence our application.  For local law enforcement, we depend on the honor system.  We have a code that was set down upon the foundation of the colony and every colonist has lived by it ever since.  If a dispute arises, it is quickly settled very locally.  An organized police force is unnecessary.
