CEO_Tomiaz says:
::making her way down the hallway in a brisk pace, slowing as she crosses the threshold into the meeting room, though lacking a standard uniform::

Jalan_Sator says:
::Enters his room again and wonders how long this lock down will last.::

CTO_Webster says:
::looks around the conference room, waiting for the rest of the senior staff to arrive::

Jenar_Ratal says:
::still skulking around waiting to catch another shuttle::

CSO_Jala-Sanders says:
::pats Root Beer's head, sitting next to her husband and waiting::

Host CMO_Fielding says:
::trying not to slouch in the conference room chair::

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::places hand on the room's door frame, then looks around the table for a good seat::

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
CTO:  Those two are really getting along well.   Surprising, considering they're almost the animal equivalent to Klingons and Romulans...  ::grins::

Jalan_Sator says:
::Goes to his soft bed and curls up, wrapping his long bushy, furry tail around him and takes a nap.::

Host Captain_Grift says:
::waiting for everyone to take a seat::

CTO_Webster says:
::smiles and nods:: XO: Yes, I'm surprised, too.  Maybe where Gumby's from he doesn't realize they are supposed to not like dogs.

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::slides into an empty seat, placing her PADD on the table and readjusting her out-of-place combadge::

Jenar_Ratal says:
::sneaks out of the shuttle bay and looks for a place to hang out and not look suspicious::

CMO_Fielding says:
::tries to look normal, fails, then brightens, realizing she NEVER looks normal::

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::catches herself starring at Dr. Fielding... shakes it off and goes back to playing with combadge::

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
CTO:  Do you think they could play together when we're on duty during the day?  I'm sure they'd like that better than sitting around their respective quarters all day long.

CSO_Jala-Sanders says:
::smiles at Steff and waves a bit::

Jalan_Sator says:
::"Meow's" in his sleep.::

CTO_Webster says:
XO: I think that's a great idea.  Gumby gets a bit lonesome and I definitely hear about it ::looks at Gumby, smiling::

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::allows a smirk to cross her face and does a half-wave at Tas with the hand that's resting on the table's surface::

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
CTO:  Great!  I'll drop off Root Beer before duty shift tomorrow morning.

CTO_Webster says:
XO: I just hope Gumby doesn't give him any bad habits.

Jalan_Sator says:
::Has a relaxing and restful sleep.::

Host Captain_Grift says:
::turns to Commander Sanders:: Do we know the whereabouts of Lt Grayson?

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
CTO:  Nah, she's a good dog..

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::has two finger puppets walk across the table's surface towards the imaginary shuttle bay::

Jenar_Ratal says:
@<Lola>FCO: Derek, this has been a lovely tour.

Jalan_Sator says:
::His tail starts to twitch and moves closer to his cold little nose as he continues to sleep.::

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
CO:  I'm sorry, sir.  I haven't seen him.

FCO_Grayson says:
@Lola: Yeah, I've really enjoyed this.  Unfortunately I think we have to get back to the Starbase...

Host Captain_Grift says:
::sighs:: XO: Well, we'll have to start without him, we have a lot of work to do.

FCO_Grayson says:
@::glances at the time::

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::coughs::  CO:  Captain, I last saw Mr. Grayson with the bartender that served us earlier... her name escapes me at the moment.  I don't know where they were heading, however.

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
CO:  Yes, sir.

Jenar_Ratal says:
@<Lola>FCO: Already? I thought we still had some time?

Host Captain_Grift says:
::Stands up and raises his voice to his senior staff:: All: If I could have your attention.

CTO_Webster says:
::turns in her chair to face the CO::

CSO_Jala-Sanders says:
::turns from Root Beer to look at Grift::

FCO_Grayson says:
@Lola: Not much.  By the time we get back our time would be up, so I guess we might as well get going now...

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::stops playing with fingers on table's surface and interlocks her fingertips together as she tilts her chair towards the Captain::

Host Captain_Grift says:
All: As you all know we have some new orders, but first there is a bit of ship's business I have to take care of.

Jenar_Ratal says:
::finds an empty room and goes inside locking the door behind her::

CMO_Fielding says:
::looks toward the CO::

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
::sits at attention::

Host Captain_Grift says:
CTO: LtCmdr. Webster please stand and be recognized.

CTO_Webster says:
::frowns a bit, wondering what's going on, and stands::

CMO_Fielding says:
::looks blearily toward her friend::

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::moves eyes from Grift to Webster, all without moving her head::

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
::turns his attention to Caryn::

Jalan_Sator says:
::Starts to wake up as the tip of his long, bushy tail tickles his little nose.  Then sits up and stretches. ::Looks at his tall and shakes his head.:: Tail: I was having a good sleep!  Why did you have to wake me? ::Looks at the chronometer.:: Oh...  ::Smiles and purrs.:: Dinner time!

Host Captain_Grift says:
CTO: Due to your exceptional performance onboard the Don Johnson, it is my distinct honor to offer you the position of 2nd officer.

FCO_Grayson says:
@::turns the shuttle around and heads back for the Starbase::

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
::applauds::

CMO_Fielding says:
::hopes Dr. W. accepts, and smiles::

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::unlocks fingertips and applauds for a few moments before returning to her original stance::

CTO_Webster says:
::stands a bit straighter:: CO: Thank you, sir, I accept.

Jalan_Sator says:
::Grooms himself and then heads out of his room, heading towards the Promenade.  Says while purring.:: Self:  Fisssssssshhhhh!

CMO_Fielding says:
::smiles a bit more, even though she's still feeling like yesterday's newspaper in the rain::

Host Captain_Grift says:
::walks over towards the CTO and extends hand:: CTO: Congratulations. You've earned this.

Jenar_Ratal says:
@<Lola>::frowns a bit then reaches over and touches Derek's arm:: FCO: I hope I'll see you again Derek. I've enjoyed our time together.

CTO_Webster says:
::puts her hand in the CO's:: CO: Thank you, sir.  ::smiles::

CSO_Jala-Sanders says:
::smiles and claps::

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
::approaches Caryn::  CTO:  Congratulations... Number 2.  ::grins::

CMO_Fielding says:
::doesn't say anything, but smiles, and makes a mental note to send her a promotion present::

CTO_Webster says:
::laughs at the XO:: XO: Thank you, sir.

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::scratches her bare kneecap under the table::

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
::offers his hand::  CTO: You deserve the position, Commander.

CMO_Fielding says:
::silently agrees with Torghie::

CTO_Webster says:
::shakes the XO's hand:: XO: Thank you.

FCO_Grayson says:
@::looks over at her and smiles:: Lola: So have I.  Who knows, maybe my ship will stop by this Starbase again soon...

Host Captain_Grift says:
::Turns and heads back towards the front of the table:: All: I'm sure we'll have time for a reception later, but right now, as you all know, we have a new set of orders.

Jalan_Sator says:
::Smiles greatly with his fangs showing as he sees a seafood restaurant.:: Self: Yes!!!!  Good fishkies! ::Walks in and quickly sits at the sushi bar.::

FCO_Grayson says:
@::turns his attention back on the controls, hoping he hasn't missed anything important::

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
::turns his attention back to Grift::

CTO_Webster says:
::sits back down, a bit stunned, but turns to listen to the CO::

Jenar_Ratal says:
@<Lola>FCO: I hope so. Oh and remember, your drinks are on the house from now on Lt. ::smiles::

CMO_Fielding says:
::closes her eyes, but listens to the CO::

Host Captain_Grift says:
All: As you all know, Starfleet Ambassador John Woo was found, apparently murdered, earlier today. The Starbase is currently shorthanded so we have been put in charge of the investigation.

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::sinks into seat somewhat::

Jalan_Sator says:
::Makes an unusual order of a large raw fish.:: Waiter: No, that'll be it. ::Can't help but to purr.:: For now at least. ::Looks around as others are looking at him.  Then slightly snarls and turns back to the bar.::

CMO_Fielding says:
::tries to nod, gives up, and just listens::

CTO_Webster says:
::frowns as the Captain speaks::

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::rises up in chair somewhat, looking at an image of Ambassador Woo on her PADD::  CO:  Does the Ambassador have any known enemies in the region?

Host Captain_Grift says:
All: You all have received written orders with your specific duties listed. Please adhere to those orders and report back to me all findings. Any questions?

CTO_Webster says:
::raises her hand:: CO: Sir?

CMO_Fielding says:
::raises her hand a little bit, seeing as Dr. W. has a Question::

Jalan_Sator says:
::Starts to drool a bit as he sees the waiter bring the big platter of fish. Looks down at it and reaches with his paw-hands.  Then reluctantly stops himself from wildly devouring the fish and grabs the fork and knife.  Grumbles to himself as he eats.::

Host Captain_Grift says:
CEO: That's Lt. Sanders job to find out.

Jenar_Ratal says:
::notices a nameplate on the desk and reads it:: Self: Commander James Bond? Why does that name sound so familiar?

Host Captain_Grift says:
CSO: Get his logs and go through them to see if there is anything suspicious.

CSO_Jala-Sanders says:
CO:  Yes sir

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::looks across the table at Torgh with one of those "its up to him" looks, then rolls eyes::

Host Captain_Grift says:
CTO: Yes?

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
CEO:  Problem, Lieutenant?

FCO_Grayson says:
@::just smiles again as the shuttle approaches the Starbase:: COM: SB_OPS: This is Lieutenant Grayson of the Don Johnson, requesting docking clearance...

CTO_Webster says:
CO: According to the schedule, there are several ships scheduled to arrive.  Shall I keep them on hold until the investigation is over?

Jenar_Ratal says:
::shrugs her shoulders and notices a replicator and decides to grab a bite to eat::

Jalan_Sator says:
::Finishes his platter of raw fish and then stops himself from grooming and cleaning himself.  Shakes his head and leaves a generous tip for the waiter and walks to the restroom.::

CEO_Tomiaz says:
XO:  Sir?  Peak efficiency over here.

CTO_Webster says:
<SB_OPS> COM: Grayson: Just one, moment, Lt.  I need to get authorization first.

Host Captain_Grift says:
CTO: Yes, no ship is permitted to dock or leave without my personal permission.

FCO_Grayson says:
@::frowns:: COM: SB_OPS: Acknowledged...

Jenar_Ratal says:
@<Lola>FCO: My the Starbase looks pretty from out here.

CTO_Webster says:
::nods:: CO: Understood, sir.

CMO_Fielding says:
::decides she could probably find the morgue on her own and lowers her hand::

CTO_Webster says:
::types onto her PADD, quickly sending a message to SB OPS to hold on incoming and outgoing ships::

Host Captain_Grift says:
All: Any other questions? ::looks around the room::

Jenar_Ratal says:
@<Lola>FCO: Is there a problem Lt?

FCO_Grayson says:
@Lola: I don't know.  It isn't supposed to take this long...

CTO_Webster says:
::shakes head, thinking about her orders::

Host Captain_Grift says:
All: Very well. Dismissed.

CMO_Fielding says:
::nods a congratulatory nod toward Dr. W., then traces the wall to the nearest Station Map::

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
CEO:  Lieutenant, you're with me.

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::rises from table::  XO:  Aye Commander, lead the way... ::extends hand towards door::

Jalan_Sator says:
::Walks around the promenade and smiles as he looks around at all the shops and everything else.::

Jenar_Ratal says:
::orders a glass of jumba juice and a chicken salad::

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
::leaves the conference room to head for the crime scene::

CMO_Fielding says:
::downloads the Map onto her PADD and locates the morgue::

CSO_Jala-Sanders says:
::thinks for a moment then stands and approaches the CO::  CO:  Actually, I do have a question.

CTO_Webster says:
<SB_OPS> *CTO*: Commander, we have a Lt Grayson requesting authorization to dock his shuttle.

Host Captain_Grift says:
CSO: Yes, what is it?

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::lightly tugs on Sander's arm as they pass a weapons locker near Ops::  XO:  I don't know about you... but maybe we should be armed.

Jenar_Ratal says:
@<Lola>FCO: I hope you're not in trouble for taking me on a Federation shuttle Derek. ::looks a bit worried::

CSO_Jala-Sanders says:
CO:  Where and when did he die?  I actually did not hear about this before now.

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
::nods::  CEO:  Not a bad idea.  Let's go.

CMO_Fielding says:
::stumbles into the nearest turbolift and enters the orders by hand::

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::removes two phasers, passing one to the Commander.  Then grabs a nearby tricorder and follows after Sanders::

FCO_Grayson says:
@Lola: Don't worry.  I had all the proper authorization, and I told them I'd be bringing another person.

CTO_Webster says:
*SB_OPS*: One moment, Lieutenant.

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::follows him into a turbolift::  XO:  Argh...  ::looks down::

Jenar_Ratal says:
::thinks that these Starfleet types have good chow in their replicators and munches her food::

CTO_Webster says:
::moves over to the CSO and CO, waiting to speak to the CO::

CMO_Fielding says:
::after about sixteen hours (but which was actually only a minute at most), emerges on the brightly lit deck::

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
CEO:  What's wrong?

Jenar_Ratal says:
@<Lola>FCO: So why is it taking so long to get back?

CEO_Tomiaz says:
XO:  Lacking a uniform, it's hard to clip these things on... ::lifts tricorder and phaser, then stuff the phaser into the pocket of her shorts::

FCO_Grayson says:
@Lola: I don't know.  Maybe they're running some routine security check or something.

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
CEO:  We could go to the replimat and make you a uniform...

CTO_Webster says:
*Rolen*: Ensign, assign a security detail for the Don Johnson.  All other security personnel are to report to me.

CMO_Fielding says:
::no one's around, seeing as how people hate dead people and everything... walks up to The Door, enters her authorization code and manages to stand without moving for a retinal scan::

Host Captain_Grift says:
CSO: He was found a few hours ago in a corridor behind a shop on the promenade.

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::flicks wrist as she personalizes her tricorder settings::  XO:  No biggie...  Aside from a body in the morgue, do we know anything about what happened to the Ambassador?

FCO_Grayson says:
@Lola: Sorry about this.  I didn't expect to take so long just to dock...

CMO_Fielding says:
::enters the morgue, which is, of course, very cold.  Which is, of course, ideal for people waking up from botched suicide attempts.  Or not.::

Jalan_Sator says:
::Walks around and then stops at a few shops, looking at the stuff they're selling.::

CTO_Webster says:
::taps her fingers on the table, waiting for a response from Rolen::

CSO_Jala-Sanders says:
CO:  All right, I'll look into it.  ::nods to everyone then leaves the meeting room to find a computer to use::

CMO_Fielding says:
::sees that the good Ambassador is the only current Occupant::

Jenar_Ratal says:
@<Lola>FCO: It's ok Derek, I don't mind spending some extra time with you. ::smiles sweetly::

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
CEO:  I know just as much as you do, Steph.

CTO_Webster says:
CO: Sir, you requested that all arrivals have your personal authorization.  Lieutenant Grayson is requesting clearance to dock. .

Host Captain_Grift says:
CTO: Lt Grayson? Is he alone?

CSO_Jala-Sanders says:
::goes to science and takes over a console, pulls up his logs to read them through::

CTO_Webster says:
::frowns:: CTO: I'm not sure, sir.  Just one moment.

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::avoids looking at the XO, and is unusually distant... but just barely noticeable::

Jenar_Ratal says:
::finishes her meal then moves to the door and peeks outside::

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::steps out of lift and walks down the hall towards a blocked off area where the body was found::

CMO_Fielding says:
::slides out the Appropriate Drawer::

CTO_Webster says:
*SB_OPS*: Lieutenant, please question Lt. Grayson.  Ask him if he is alone or has passengers, please.

Jalan_Sator says:
::Looks around and then walks over to the shuttle area.  Looks to see when the next shuttle is scheduled to depart.  Then frowns and heads off again.::

CTO_Webster says:
<SB_OPS> *CTO*: Understood.

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
::walks down the corridor along side Steph::

CMO_Fielding says:
::finds the handy-dandy All-Purpose ExoBiological Autopsy Kit in the bottom drawer of the stack::

CTO_Webster says:
<SB_OPS> COM: Grayson: Lieutenant, do have any passengers with you?

Jenar_Ratal says:
::slips down the corridor and heads for the promenade::

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::flips open tricorder and begins scanning the ground where the Ambassador was found, then the surrounding walls::

CTO_Webster says:
<Rolen> *CTO*: Ma'am, I've contacted all security personnel.  They will be at your position in 3 minutes.

Jenar_Ratal says:
@<Lolo>FCO: I think they mean me Derek.

CTO_Webster says:
*Rolen*: Understood.  Thank you, Ensign.

CMO_Fielding says:
::runs a preliminary check on him for organ system damage, wounds, whatever she could find::

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
::keeps a lookout for any suspicious activity while the CEO takes her readings::

Jalan_Sator says:
::Pauses next to a few civilians who are gossiping about the murder of the Admiral.  Listens and becomes nervous again.::

CMO_Fielding says:
::well, the mangled heart is kinda obvious, but wants to make things thorough::

CTO_Webster says:
::now taps her fingers, waiting for a response from SB_OPS::

FCO_Grayson says:
@::nods at her:: COM: SB_OPS: Yes, one passenger, a resident of the Starbase.  Why are you asking?  This was all mentioned when I requested the use of this shuttle...

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
CEO:  Anything unusual?

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::allows a variety of faces to wash across as she reads her tricorder::

CMO_Fielding says:
::notes most systems normal, severe trauma to the circulatory system (duh), and some bruising around the neck::

CTO_Webster says:
<SB_OPS> COM: Grayson: Thank you, Lieutenant.  You will be advised of the situation should you be granted permission to dock.  One moment.

CTO_Webster says:
<SB_OPS> *CTO*: Commander, he has one passenger. A resident of the Starbase.

Jenar_Ratal says:
::makes her way past several shops trying to blend in to the crowd::

FCO_Grayson says:
@::sighs and sits back:: Lola: I'll be old enough to retire by the time we dock.

CSO_Jala-Sanders says:
*CO*:  Jala here.  I've been reading his logs and found nothing about any enemies or anything suspicious.  Seems he was just in the wrong place at the wrong time, perhaps.

Jenar_Ratal says:
@<Lola>:;giggles:: FCO: Well I guess I'll just have to grow old along with you Lt.

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
::waits for an answer::  CEO:  Steph?

Host Captain_Grift says:
*CSO*: See what systems he's been in recently and see if you can determine what he has been up to.

CMO_Fielding says:
::does a biochemical analysis of the body.  Ah, the wonders of modern medicine::

CTO_Webster says:
*SB_OPS*: Thank you.  ::turns back to the CO:: Sir, he has a Starbase resident with him.

CSO_Jala-Sanders says:
*CO*:  Yessir.  Jala out*

Jalan_Sator says:
::Sees Jenar before she can see him and ducks around a corner and heads into the nearest shop.  Then pretends to look at the shopkeepers stuff while keeping an eye and ear out for Jenar.::

CEO_Tomiaz says:
XO:  Nothing conclusive...  A little blood from the good Mr. Woo.  ::points to some shoe marks on the floor::  ...signs of a scuffle.  And bingo, some hair that's probably from our attackers.  We should have Dr. Fielding check the clothing of the victim to see if it matches, then run a search for the person or persons involved.

FCO_Grayson says:
@::laughs:: Lola: That would be nice.

CSO_Jala-Sanders says:
::checks into the systems and his daily activities::

CMO_Fielding says:
::no poisons... some decrease in oxygen level...::

CTO_Webster says:
::watches as her security teams arrive; holds a hand up, indicating she is talking with the Captain::

Host Captain_Grift says:
CTO: Very well, let him dock and take his passenger into custody until she can be questioned to see if she is involved in any way.

Jenar_Ratal says:
::moves along the promenade keeping an eye out for any signs of security::

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
CEO:  Good.  Collect a sample and we'll bring it to the doctor.

CMO_Fielding says:
::does some more scans of the cardiac area::

CTO_Webster says:
::nods:: CO: Understood, sir.  ::turns to her security teams:: Security: I want a two-person team at each docking hatch.  No ships are to depart or arrive without my authorization.  Understood?

CMO_Fielding says:
::the strangling didn't seem too professional, but the disrupter did it for sure::

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::lets out a small laugh::  XO:  Some of the DNA matches that of a Catian... unless they're having a convention, this one shouldn't be hard to find.  The other is apparently Orion, and the third sample is human... probably the Ambassador.

CTO_Webster says:
::watches heads bob up and down:: Rolen: You are with me.  We will meet Lt. Grayson's shuttle.

FCO_Grayson says:
@Lola: I've got a bad feeling about this.

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::motions for a security guard nearby to scoop up some samples and run it down to sickbay for analysis::

CTO_Webster says:
*SB_OPS*: Lieutenant, the shuttle is authorized to dock, a port 3.  Hold them for 5 mins, until I can get a security team there.

CMO_Fielding says:
::now that cause of death is determined, starts the time-of-death sequence of scans::

Jalan_Sator says:
::Talks with the shopkeeper and then heads out to look around again.  Growing more and more nervous as time passes.::

CTO_Webster says:
<SB_OPS> *CTO*: Understood.

Jenar_Ratal says:
@<Lola>FCO: Bad feeling? I'm sorry if I got you in trouble with your Captain Derek.

CMO_Fielding says:
::at the same time, begins the forensic scans, a.k.a. trace evidence and tissue sample scans::

CSO_Jala-Sanders says:
*CO*:  He was here for a simple layover.  He was on his way to SB169 to be their ADM.

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::tosses tricorder from hand to hand::  XO:  Let's see what the good Doctor has found... ::begins to walk towards the Promenade, stopping for a moment to allow the XO to catch up::

CTO_Webster says:
<SB_OPS>: COM: Grayson: You are authorized to dock at port 3.  Please hold for 5 mins.  We need to remove some equipment in front of the hatch.

FCO_Grayson says:
@Lola: I don't think I'm in trouble with him.  But something must be wrong...

FCO_Grayson says:
@COM: SB_OPS: Uh, acknowledged, docking port 3.  Will hold for five minutes...and thank you.

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
::follows the CEO::

Jalan_Sator says:
::Becomes tired and heads back to his room.::

CTO_Webster says:
<SB_OPS> COM: Grayson: Thank you for your patience, Lieutenant.

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
CEO:  Nice to see you taking charge... lieutenant.  ::grins wryly::

CTO_Webster says:
::heads off to port 3, with Rolen in tow::

Host Captain_Grift says:
*CSO*: Try to contact the USS Penguin and see what information they can give you on the Ambassador.

Jenar_Ratal says:
::makes her way back to the shuttle bay to see if she can catch a ride on another shuttle leaving the SB::

CSO_Jala-Sanders says:
*CO*:  Yessir.

CSO_Jala-Sanders says:
::rolls eyes and calls up the penguin::

CEO_Tomiaz says:
XO:  Well Commander, I've got a ship being toyed around with without my watchful eye, not to mention some time off being abruptly cancelled when somebody decided to ship Ambassador Woo off the mortal coil.  ::sighs, not even seeing his smile::

CTO_Webster says:
<Ferengi> COM: SB_OPS: When are we going to get clearance to leave?  We have merchandise to offload...errr, sell.

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
CEO:  Steph, I was only kidding...  Are you okay?

CTO_Webster says:
::arrives at port 3:: Rolen: Ensign, we are taking Mr. Grayson and his passenger to the brig.  Mr. Grayson is not, of course, in custody, but we have questions for his passenger.

CMO_Fielding says:
::::looks at the results of the scan.  Some Caitian fur, Orion hair, a bit roughed up (well, um.  He WAS killed and all...)::

Jalan_Sator says:
::Arrives in his room and curls up to go to sleep.  Gets back up and sets the alarm clock.  Then goes back to his soft comfy bed and goes to sleep again.::

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::does one of those smiles that ends up looking like a frown, and looks at the XO sidelong as she keeps heading for the morgue::  XO:  I'll live...

FCO_Grayson says:
@Lola: Okay, it's been five minutes.  Here we go.  ::brings the shuttle into port 3 and docks::  I'm glad you enjoyed the trip.

CTO_Webster says:
<SB_OPS>: COM : Ferengi vessel: We are having a problem with our external sensors.  Please be patient a little longer.

Jenar_Ratal says:
@<Lola>FCO: I did Derek. Thank you.

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::makes a dead stop in the hallway::

CTO_Webster says:
::watches through a view port as the shuttle docks; moves over to the hatch::

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
CEO:  Stephanie... As first officer, I am partly responsible for this crew and its well being.  If something is bothering you, I want to know about it.

CSO_Jala-Sanders says:
*CO*:  They had nothing of import to tell me.  I'm going to get in touch with April and look at some security sensor logs.

FCO_Grayson says:
@::powers down the shuttle and opens the hatch:: Lola: Anytime.  After you.  ::gestures to the hatch::

CTO_Webster says:
<Rolen> ::moves over to the hatch, behind the CTO::

CMO_Fielding says:
*CO*: Scans complete, sir.  Time of death approximately an hour ago, some Caitian fur and Orion hair found on the victim.  Strangulation appeared to be attempted, but he was killed by a disrupter straight to the heart, sir.

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::looks down at her feet for a moment, then meets Torgh's eyes::  XO:  Did you happen to know your wife before she was joined?

Jenar_Ratal says:
::moves to the hatch::

CTO_Webster says:
<Rolen> ::moves his hand to the butt of his phaser, but keeps it in his belt::

XO_Torgh_Sanders says:
::taken aback by the abrupt change of subject::  CEO:  Yes, I did.  Why?

Host Captain_Grift says:
*CMO*: Not very clean then...

FCO_Grayson says:
::stands and follows Lola to the hatch::

CMO_Fielding says:
*CO*: No, sir.  Done in a hurry, I'd say.

CEO_Tomiaz says:
::crosses arms defensively, though not really noticing it::  XO:  In the past year, I don't know how many times I've looked in the mirror at that same face, those same spots and the same hair... but saw a different person.  I feel very... alien.  Distance... different...

Jenar_Ratal says:
::waits for Derek to exit first::
