ARC 18 - In The Town Where I was Born - Mission 13 - SD: 116010.04
Host SMDrew says:
Summary: The Claymore has returned to Thienya II and established a standard orbit around the planet.  The four science probes begin downloading the data they have collected during the last solar event, which shows with multiple man-made items within the system.  Down on the planet the probes have located a strong source of part of the energy signature detected within the serpent.  Three miles below the surface, what could only be described as a bunker is detected.  While scans cannot penetrate the bunker, it does show that it is over ten miles square with only one entrance.  However, there doesn't seem to be any signs of passages, lifts, or any other means of getting from the surface to the bunker.

OPS_LtJg_Kendal says:
@::finishes loading up the small pack from the transporter room's locker then looks around TR2::
CTO_Lt_Kytides says:
@::Stands in transporter room two, currently involved in the umpteenth check of his equipment, given how important it'll be if anything happens at his size::
CAG_Cptn_Hawk says:
@::In the transporter room...  frowns slightly as his phaser keeps poking into his leg now::
Host XO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@TC:  Do we have a lock on our coordinates?
Host SMDrew says:
@<TC_CPO_Butler> XO: Yes, Sir.  I have a clear target three miles under the planet’s surface.
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::leaning against the wall near the hatch of transporter room two, lost in some inane thought::
Host XO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@::Stands from his place seated on the edge of the transporter platform::  TR:  Good.  *CMO*:  Doctor, is your team ready to beam down?
Host SMDrew says:
@<TC_CPO_Butler> ::Looks over the readings.::  XO:  Looks to be an area one hundred meters by three hundred meters and a ceiling of eighty meters.
Host CMO_Cmdr_Raeyld says:
@::Her kit slung over her shoulder, tricorder in hand, she strides into transporter room two, and glances around, immediately spotting Davis...but blinks slightly as her combadge chirps::
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::consider kneeling, just to do something different--and it's his only idea aside from just sitting on the pad--but decides against it::
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::exchanges glances with Raeyld, though he looks away as quickly as the badge makes its magical sound::
Host CMO_Cmdr_Raeyld says:
@::Swallows and glances around the room, running everyone against a mental checklist:: *XO*: Yes sir, I believe we are.
Host SMDrew says:
@<TC_CPO_Butler> XO:  Sir, I'm transferring the data to transporter rooms two, three, and four.  ::Taps a few commands into the console.::
MO_Ens_Stevens says:
@ ::steps up onto a transporter pad, double checking her bag for all of her equipment::
Host XO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@TC:  All right, notify all teams that we're ready to beam out.  Once we get ready signals from all rooms, you may begin transport.  ::Steps back into his favored back left location on the pad, and holsters his tricorder before giving his hand phaser one last check::
Host XO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@*CMO*:  Acknowledged.  We'll be ready to beam down shortly.
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@<MA_1stSgt_Oley> ::enters Transporter Room 3, noting Lieutenant Walters' right away and moving towards him::
OPS_LtJg_Kendal says:
@::nods to himself, checks over Felgar's shoulder, then nods and steps onto the transporter pad::
CTO_Lt_Kytides says:
@::Given the conversation Raeyld seems to be having, finishes his latest check and slides tricorder and phaser back into position before stepping onto the pad::
CAG_Cptn_Hawk says:
@::Steps up on an empty pad::
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
@ :: As she paces, she reads the update from the probes::
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@<TL_1stLt_Walters> MA: Come to see us off?
Host SMDrew says:
@<TC_CPO_Butler> XO: Aye, Sir.  ::Taps the comms to the other transporter rooms.::  *Transporter room 2-4*:  All rooms stand-by.  Report when ready for beam in.
Host CMO_Cmdr_Raeyld says:
@::Exhales, and makes a sort of waving gesture toward those in transporter room two, sweeping toward the actual transporter pad, and steps onto it herself, shifting her weight slightly as she finds her place:: *XO*: Sir, you should know, I have some concerns about the transport enhancers. I recognize their utility in the case of an emergency...but if Doctor Stevens' results do indicate someone attempting to track and potentially transport through barriers via our DNA changes, whoever is in the bunker may specifically have set it up against transporters to avoid whoever's done this to us.
Host CMO_Cmdr_Raeyld says:
@*XO*: The transporter enhancers may "open the door" between a potentially malevolent force and whoever is inside.
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::wanders towards the pad as well, nodding to Kytides::  CTO: Lieutenant, how goes?
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@<MA_1stSgt_Oley> TL: Just making sure you're squared away, Sir.
CTO_Lt_Kytides says:
@::Blinks and nods to Davis, resisting the urge to check his equipment again given the minor delay::  CEO:  Good, Commander.
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
@ :: completes her third circuit of the room and looks up and over at Damrok::
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@<TL_1stLt_Walters>  MA: As squared away as we'll be.  ::looks at part of the detachment, waiting at a half-assed parade rest on the pad::  I don't think we'll really know until we get down there.
OPS_LtJg_Kendal says:
@<TRO_PO_Felgar> ::waits for the team to step onto the pad:: CMO: Let me know when you are ready, Ma'am.
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
@ :: Looks over at Sky::
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::notices he's a little twitchy, or is it just understandably nervous or distracted?::  CTO: That's good. Hopefully we can say the same thing in a few hours.
Host XO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@*CMO*:  I would be more worried if the marines weren't guarding them.  So far, we haven't picked up any lifesigns in the truest sense.  They have orders to abandon the site if it becomes untenable, and to take proprietary Starfleet technology with them.  ::Thinks of the Jarrow a moment, and sighs in frustration::  In short, I'm willing to take the chance for the safety of the crew.
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@<MA_1stSgt_Oley> ::nods, realizing perhaps a beat or two too late for his liking that they might be talking about different things::  TL: I'll have a good thought--and we'll be monitoring from here, of course.
CTO_Lt_Kytides says:
@::Nods at that again, the back of his mind hoping they can also say that they're no longer in children's bodies in a few hours, though he's been hoping that for a while and has yet to see it happen::
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@<TL_1stLt_Walters> ::nods::  MA: Sounds good. Thanks again for your help.
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::turns and looks at Raeyld again quickly, but is too afraid a longer glance will burn his retinas or his mind somehow::
CAG_Cptn_Hawk says:
@::Glances back to Eris and gives her a wink as if to say it was gonna be fun::
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@<MA_1stSgt_Oley>.  ::nods, awkwardly--which is to say there's somewhat of a processing delay; caught somewhat off-guard, he makes eye contact, then turns and makes his way to the bridge::
Host CMO_Cmdr_Raeyld says:
::Bites her lower lip, a gesture she can at least depend upon to be inaudible over the comm:: *XO*: Understood.  ::Sets her jaw slightly and looks across the room, her voice tinged with finality:: All: Prepare for transport.
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
@ :: just shakes her head and climbs up onto the transporter pad.  She had forgotten how restless she had been as a child. ::
OPS_LtJg_Kendal says:
@::isn't really sure that he should be leaving the ship.  Honestly given the reports from...the former ops officer about what happened on away missions... He gulps.::
Host XO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@*Away Teams*:  All away teams, this is Damrok.  Prepare for beamout.  ::Nods to Butler, thinking Raeyld is probably not very pleased with him::
Host XO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@TR:  Begin.
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::feels his heart flutter a little and tries to overcome it with a sharp breath in::
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
@CAG:  I have this very strong urge to run... just run.  Run free to run.  The wind, the sun... ::sighs::
CAG_Cptn_Hawk says:
@CSO:  Awww, Eris...  grow up!  ::grins at his own joke::
Host CMO_Cmdr_Raeyld says:
@::Hears Damrok's echo over her comm a split second before the world dematerializes around her::
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
@ :: Looks gloomily at him::  CAG:  That is the point.
Host SMDrew says:
@ACTION:  Transporter chiefs in all four rooms slide the transporter console.  Each of the four rooms vanish from the Claymore in a shimmer of blue, only to materialize a moment later deep within the planet Thienya II.  The darkness is only interrupted by the blue transporter beams and wrist lights.
OPS_LtJg_Kendal says:
::clicks on his wrist beacon on and pulls a chemical stick light from his pack, snapping it and shaking it before hanging it from his belt.:
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
:: Blinks as she looks around, her eyes adapting to the greatly reduced light.::
Host XO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
::Flicks on his wrist beacon, then takes his tricorder in his right hand and begins scanning around::
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
:: Picking up her tricorder, she begins to scan the area.::
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::out of habit, reaches for his tricorder to the left of his waist, removing it quickly from its pouch and snapping it open::
CAG_Cptn_Hawk says:
::Draws his phaser and brings it to the ready, taking a security stance from force of habit::
MO_Ens_Stevens says:
::Snaps her tricorder open and starts a scan of the area::
CTO_Lt_Kytides says:
::Gets his bearings while jabbing quickly at his wrist for light, then goes for his tricorder::
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
XO:  When you have a moment, I have an update from the probes.  :: turns slowly around.::
Host SMDrew says:
SCENE: The dark, damp and humid cavern seems to be manmade.  The solid stone walls are cut perfectly smooth.  The sediment on the ground looks to be undisturbed for many years.  To the north is a metal wall which looks to have been green at one time.  However, now it is a combination of light surface rust and paint flecks.
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::thankfully the tricorder illuminates the area; the bad news is that it's only a glow off his face, which doesn't help much for navigating in and of itself::
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
:: Taking out a small tube, bends down to gather a sample.::
Host XO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
CSO:  Now would be fine.  ::He tilts his head to indicate that he's now starting to move toward the metallic wall, then realizes she probably didn't see it in the dark::
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
:: standing, she caps it and moves toward the metal wall::  XO:  Tricorder is unable to read beyond this room.
Host XO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
::Looks around with his light and sees she's moving with him anyway::  CSO:  I figured as much.
Host CMO_Cmdr_Raeyld says:
::Snaps open her tricorder and begins a cursory scan, checking for any signs of life that may have been undetectable from orbit - including plant or microbial life - and beginning a basic map::
OPS_LtJg_Kendal says:
::plays the wrist beacon around the ceiling then over to the metal wall. He steps towards it curiously:
Host SMDrew says:
ACTION:  Light turns on from the ceiling high above if triggered by the CSOs movement.
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::studies the tricorder's readings as they flash across the screen, which is really to say he's studying nothing::
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
:: pocketing the sample she does a scan of the metal wall::  XO:  Let me see.... :: closes her eyes a moment::  I am going to repeat a few things.
Host XO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
::Squints as the lights flicker to life, covering his eyes with his hands a moment as his eyes have already adjusted::
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
CTO/CMO: I'm not able to read anything just yet...  ::moves a little to his left, albeit slowly given the visibility and his general distrust of everything external to himself::
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
XO: Sooo... near the Thienya star are two large structures.  One located at each pole within the stars gravity well.  Both are hidden by the stars magnetic fields and radiation belts.
Host CMO_Cmdr_Raeyld says:
::Closes her eyes a moment against the light, letting her other senses compensate meanwhile::
CTO_Lt_Kytides says:
::Free hand flits to his phaser at the sudden light, half-drawing it while tilting his head toward the floor and squinting::
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
:: Opens her eyes as she realizes it is not as dark::
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
Self:  Ok....
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<TL_1stLt_Walters> ::looks around, sees nothing--thinks: great::  ALL: Let's do it.
Host XO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
CSO:  Yes, I think it'd seen something to that effect, but we didn't have anything further to this point.  ::Uncovers his eyes and blinks a few times::
MO_Ens_Stevens says:
::covers her eyes for a moment before trying to re-adjust her eyes to the new light::
OPS_LtJg_Kendal says:
::blinks at the light and mutters about old power systems.  He raises his tricorder, scanning for the light's power source.::
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::blinks his eyes closed, but not in time to save his night vision; he snaps the tricorder closed::
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
:: lightly taps the wall and looks down at her tricorder::  All: The surface is rusted.  It is several meters thick, made up of titanium alloy that is covered with two meters of hardened steel.  The inner core appears to be twelve negatively charged meters of thick lead.
Host XO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
CSO:  Likely to protect against solar events, I'd expect.
Host SMDrew says:
<Intercom>  ::In an unknown voice.::  *sedrf*: Wetir, tojavna orteilea mantri, oreniwania, lor.
CTO_Lt_Kytides says:
::Keeps his hand on his phaser, though undrawn, and lets his eyes adjust while setting his tricorder to monitor life signs, even if the inability to scan outside the room makes that a wasted effort at the moment::
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
:: Turns back to him.:: XO:  There are the additional manmade objects that seem to be hidden within the systems asteroid belt located between the fifth and sixth planet.
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<COM_Sgt_Rodriguez> ::staggers a bit; he kneels, shrugging off his pack, using the time to let his eyes recover a little and to get the transport enhancer out::
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
XO: The serpent was redirected at least once within the asteroid belt.
Host CMO_Cmdr_Raeyld says:
::Tilts her head and glances toward Kendal:: OPS: Can you make anything of it?
Host XO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
CSO:  Hm...we hadn't picked that up previously.  Disguised by the asteroid belt?
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::snaps open tricorder again, setting it to auto-record and analyze recorded speech or sound::
Host XO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
::In the back of his mind, is processing the fact that they're being spoken to by some kind of recording, one assumes, but his tricorder is recording, and assumes that others are already on it, as well::  OPS:  Kendal, do we have anything in the database that's a close match to that language?
OPS_LtJg_Kendal says:
::Looks at the commander for a moment, frowns to himself and shrugs:: CMO: I'll need a bigger sample size.
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
:: considers::  XO:  Yes.  There is another manmade object detected within the outer asteroid belt and appears to have aided in the redirection of the ummm... serpent.  Shortly after the serpent dissipated, sensors picked up a faint signal tracking back to the planet.
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<COM_Sgt_Rodriguez> ::having removed the enhancer, he turns it on its side, pressing a button on its belly and causing its stand to pop out::
OPS_LtJg_Kendal says:
::looks at the tricorder's reading:: XO: Working on that now.
Host SMDrew says:
ACTION:  Three light blue blobs appear.  One in front of Commander Davis, One in front of Commander Damrok, and One in front of Ensign Stevens.
OPS_LtJg_Kendal says:
::looks up, remembering something:: XO: Sir.
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
XO:  Sensors showed the signal to be encrypted and similar to the transporter signal.  I have the computer and a team working on the decryption now.
Host XO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
::Remains tuned into Senn as he nods to Kendal, and realizes that Raeyld's probably already got a handle on it::  CSO:  Speculatively, do you think -- ::An eyebrow shoots up and he flinches as the blob appears::
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::pauses for a moment as the dim light from the tricorder reveals a blue-ish color in front of him; he pauses for a moment, then moves the tricorder towards it::
Host SMDrew says:
<Junara> ::Her face morphs from the top of the blob and looks over Commander Davis.::
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
:: turns to scan the.... blobs::
Host SMDrew says:
<Entwen> ::Her face morphs from the top of the blob and looks over Ensign Stevens.::
Host CMO_Cmdr_Raeyld says:
::Immediately takes a step toward Davis, turning her tricorder on the blob, and resting her other hand on her phaser, still at her side::
MO_Ens_Stevens says:
::stifles a shriek and jumps backwards, holding the tricorder towards it like a weapon::
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::doesn't feel particularly threatened by this thing; then again, he didn't feel particularly safe ever since they arrived::
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
:: glances over at Stevens::
CAG_Cptn_Hawk says:
::Phaser in hand, but lowered, moves toward the XO::
Host SMDrew says:
<Ulainie> ::Her face morphs from the top of the blob and looks over Commander Damrok.::
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
Junara: Hello.
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
:: looking back she blinks in surprise.   She did not see that coming.::
CTO_Lt_Kytides says:
::Blinks, grip tightening on his phaser but not drawing it yet given orders and the fact that he isn't sure it would do any good, but turns and positions himself so that he can see all three of the blobs he counts::
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
XO:  Ummm... :: frowns as she reads through the tricorder::  Hmmm...
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
XO: At a guess, you are looking at a cross between an android and a hologram. :: reaches up and scratches her head::
Host XO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
Ulainie:  Ah... ::Nudges Senn once, then a few more times::  Hello.  ::Tugs on his uniform jacket::
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::has the sense that there's some tension around him from Raeyld's step and Kytides’ higher incidence of fidgeting; he holds his hand out to the side, hoping no one is going to come in guns blazing and get -him- zapped or slimed or whatever::
Host SMDrew says:
ACTION:  All three blobs send out a green wave of energy through the room.  Then begin a smaller beam at each away team member.
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::turns to Raeyld since she has the tricorder out already::  CMO: A scan?
OPS_LtJg_Kendal says:
::looks at the tricorder and then at the lights. He shrugs slightly, and goes back to trying to get the Clay's translator to work on the limited sample size::
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
:: Looks at Damrok confused and then back at the object::  Ulainie:  Who are you?
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<COM_Sgt_Rodriguez> ::removes an anchor adapter from his pack, affixing it to the bottom of the transport enhancer's stand::
Host CMO_Cmdr_Raeyld says:
::Nods slightly:: CEO: I'd imagine. If you can get...um, it, talking, that might help progress Lieutenant Kendal's work.
Host XO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
::Settles himself a bit and looks at the being, not feeling any ill effects from the beam as yet, and as such, only concerned in that there are blob people::
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::nods, wondering if she knows who she is talking to, and if so, intends to continue trusting his peop--err, blob skills::
Host CMO_Cmdr_Raeyld says:
::Turns her tricorder somewhat, trying to determine the source of the blobs - holographic projections? Simple displays of light? Something physically materialized within the room?::
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
Ulainie:  Even more so... :: stops as she is doing the same thing and shakes her head::  XO:  The beam is harmless.  Nothing more then what I am doing only at a more... biological level.
Host XO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
CSO:  ...Good to know.
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::turns back to Junara::  Junara:  Hello. Can you communicate?
MO_Ens_Stevens says:
::checks her tricorder before deciding not to drop her weapon::
Host CMO_Cmdr_Raeyld says:
::Glances over at Stevens, whom she'd heard a, uh, peep, from, a moment ago, just to check on her "well-being."::
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
XO:  I do not know about that given what Doctor Stevens told us.
Host SMDrew says:
<Junara>  ::Moves in closer her face morphing into more human shape and appearance.::  CEO:  You are known as Human.  Davis, Commander.
Host XO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
::Glances to his tricorder, finally, and looks back up::  Ulainie:  We're here looking for people.  We don't have any harmful intentions, and if we're intruding, I can only apologize.  ::Feels that he sounds like an idiot, and even more so since he's speaking with the voice of a child::
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
:: as the blob is not conversing, she seeks its energy source.::
Host CMO_Cmdr_Raeyld says:
::Overhearing Senn, she checks her tricorder, trying to determine if any genetic change has been wrought in Davis, Kendal, or Kytides as a result of their most recent scans::
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::nods--it escaping him for the moment that this thing somehow knows his name and rank::  Junara: Yes. I'm from the Federation ship Claymore. Who are you?
Host SMDrew says:
<Entwen> MO: Female, tagged subject 4479-223356-222311932.
Host CMO_Cmdr_Raeyld says:
::Glances to Kendal:: OPS: Can you determine if the universal translator's working now...or are they speaking in Federation standard?
Host SMDrew says:
<Ulainie> XO: Welcome Initiator.  You are Thienyan.  You are damaged.
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
:: has an aversion for being given a number... comes from her childhood, but says nothing as she looks for source.::
MO_Ens_Stevens says:
::looks back at her tricorder and then back at Entwen:: Entwen: Subject? In what?
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
:: mutters under her breath as she continues scanning::  damaged... damaged how?
Host XO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
::Raises a breath to speak, but finds only stutters, at first::  Ulainie:  I-I think you're mistaken.  I'm not Thienyan.  I'm Cardassian.
OPS_LtJg_Kendal says:
::shrugs slightly:: CMO: They are translating to Fed standard, I think.
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
:: realizing they are not being projected from this room, she continues looking for an internal power source of some kind.::
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
:: Stops a moment and does a run on Thienyan::
Host SMDrew says:
<Ulainie> XO: You are a Thienyan Initiator.  We have been expecting contact.  Solar storms continue and further initiator input is required.
Host CMO_Cmdr_Raeyld says:
::Tilts her head:: Junara: How do you know Commander Davis?
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
:: Turns::  All: I do not have anything in the data base about Thienyans.
Host XO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
Ulainie:  I don't -- you don't seem to understand.  I am not -- ::As he stands trying to think of some argument other than "I'm not one of those," it occurs to him the close relation that their genetic changes have to Cardassian DNA, and he closes his mouth, looking at Ulainie in deep thought::
Host SMDrew says:
<Ulainie>  ::Turns and looks over Raeyld.::  CMO:  Female. Betazoid, tagged unit 4478-223779-221881947.
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
:: considers::  XO:  I do not suppose that the Cardassians are like the Vulcans with unknown cousins such as the Romulans?
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
CMO: I swear, I get this reaction every strange underground bunker I go to.
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
:: turns to keep walking about the room.  At least it was bigger than the transporter.::
Host XO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
CSO:  Anything is possible.  ::Shakes his head::  That must be the case.
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
XO:  It might explain your ummm... damage.
Host SMDrew says:
<Junara> CEO:  Service Unit Thienya Mark VII Arc System replicant.  Number 113A-Junara.
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
Junara: Can you show us a map of this area, for navigation?
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
:: half listening, she pauses to look at Davis confused::  Replica?
Host XO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
::Looks back to Ulainie::  Ulainie:  What sort of assistance do you require?
Host CMO_Cmdr_Raeyld says:
Ulainie: I suppose so. ::Shifts slightly, not having any direct cultural connotation associated with the numbering of people, yet disliking its detachment nonetheless:: 
Host SMDrew says:
<Junara> CEO: Unable to comply.  You are not an Initiator and have no valid access to restricted data.
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
:: realizes Davis had asked a question and it was answering.  Goes back to her scan and search with a glance at her brother who is being rather quiet.::
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
Self: Not an initiator...I think I heard that once or twice at the Academy, even.
Host CMO_Cmdr_Raeyld says:
::Can't help but smile slightly:: CEO: Perhaps Commander Damrok could promote you to Initiator. Seems like a short jump from "Named."
CTO_Lt_Kytides says:
::Glances to Damrok, given the blobs seem to want an initiator and Damrok seems to be the only one::
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::Frowns::  CMO: Is -he- an Initiator?
Host CMO_Cmdr_Raeyld says:
CEO: That one-- ::Gestures toward Ulainie with her tricorder:: --seems to keep insisting upon the "fact."
Host SMDrew says:
<Ulainie> XO: Service units require initiator command, storage, maintenance, and solar sensor data.  Arc System has been online for 2699743.83123 hours, 43 minutes and 34 seconds.
Host CMO_Cmdr_Raeyld says:
::Lets a bit of breath out between her lips:: XO: About three hundred years, give or take.
Host XO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
Ulainie:  The system is malfunctioning, then?
CTO_Lt_Kytides says:
::Blinks at that hour count, by now hand only resting on phaser as a precaution::
OPS_LtJg_Kendal says:
::runs the tricorder over one of the units curiously, but stay's back a bit::
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::nods and moves towards Damrok, gesturing for Raeyld to follow--perhaps they can share pieces::
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
:: not wanting to interrupt, she makes note that the room is 100m x 300m and about 83m high.::
Host SMDrew says:
<Ulainie> XO:  System is currently active and operating at 98%.  However, original Arc program was to be a one hundred year program.  Solar storms have not subsided and Arc Program continues to run without Initiator input.
Host CMO_Cmdr_Raeyld says:
::Nods, and follows Davis toward Damrok, gesturing for Kytides, Kendal, and Sandy to join them, perhaps with a little too much relief::
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
:: stares at the wall a moment as if she could see through the twelve kilometers of stone cut wall within a metal enclosure.::
Host SMDrew says:
ACTION:  Junara and Entwen vanish.
Host XO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
Ulainie:  I see.  ::Contemplates that for a moment...the relationship between whatever devices are in play in the system and the solar storms might be almost the opposite of their original conclusions::  What do you require from me?
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::steps beside Damrok, waiting for a time to speak without interrupting::
CTO_Lt_Kytides says:
::Moves in closer to Damrok at Raeyld's signal, waiting and continuing to listen::
Host SMDrew says:
<Ulainie> XO: We require Initiator input, solar sensor data, maintenance and storage.
Host CMO_Cmdr_Raeyld says:
Ulainie: What is the purpose of the Arc system?
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
XO: This is what the other one was saying to us.
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
XO: Who are the initiators?
Host SMDrew says:
<Ulainie> ::Turns to Raeyld.::  CMO: That information is restricted to Initiators.
Host CMO_Cmdr_Raeyld says:
::Sighs a little, and glances toward Damrok::
Host XO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
::Takes the cue::  Ulainie:  Could you tell me what the purpose of the Arc system is?
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
:: finding absolutely nothing in the room, she makes her way back to the group.::
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
:;moves away from Damrok and the rest, wondering if Junara will reappear::
Host SMDrew says:
<Ulainie> XO:  Initiator, the Arc Project was designed to house the Thienyan population for one hundred years from the solar storms detected by our science teams.  Arc Project currently holds 6,334,550,120 Thienyans and 58,912 other species.
Host SMDrew says:
<Ulainie> XO:  101,200,115 have passed away since Arc Project came online.
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
:: stops beside Damrok and looks at Ulainie::
Host CMO_Cmdr_Raeyld says:
::Despite the fact the system won't respond to her, she can't help but reflexively ask:: Ulainie: -Where-??
Host SMDrew says:
<Ulainie> CMO: Initiator restricted information only.
Host XO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
Ulainie:  This structure -- ::Gestures to the metal wall::  -- is this the Arc?
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
:: lifts a brow as she listens and then frowns::
Host CMO_Cmdr_Raeyld says:
::Breathes heavily once, and turns away from Ulainie sharply, before she risks saying something she really, really shouldn't::
CEO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::seemingly to no one:: Aloud: Junara!
Host SMDrew says:
<Ulainie> XO: Yes, Initiator, all Arc Project computers are stored within these walls.  Power systems, communications, and replicant facilities are all stored within the Arc Project bunker structure.
Host XO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
Ulainie:  When you say stored...how are these people kept?  In what state?
Host CMO_Cmdr_Raeyld says:
::Winces at the term "stored."::
CSO_Cmd_Senn says:
:: quietly::  XO:  Ask them if we...ummm... you can see them.
Host SMDrew says:
<Ulainie> XO: Embryonic stasis with brain subconscious download into virtual Thienya II Arc Project simulation.
Host CMO_Cmdr_Raeyld says:
::Whispers:: ...embryonic...?
