USS  Don Johnson  NCC-61701
Mission 10404.22

.
Host Loren says:
SUMMARY:  Our gallant band of Starfleet officers, guised as a rag tag company of merchant spacemen, has moved on to the next phase.  They have been afforded a measure of trust by Vole, which in turn gives them some confidence in the eyes of the leaders of the Dragons.  They have been dispatched back into the Epsilon Hydra System, with another one of these mysterious cargo's.  

Host Loren says:
Since it has become evident that the Dragons are using the EH system as a base of operations.  It is reasonably safe to assume that this cargo doesn't contain a bomb.  

Host Loren says:
The Roxanne is less than a day away from the EH system, cruising at a comfortable warp 5.  Between where they are and where they are going, there is nothing but empty space.  It looks like clear sailing

Host Loren says:

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
::On the flight deck wiping off loose fur from his pants::

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Walks onto the bridge from cleaning up the medical bay::

XO_Jezabell says:
::Arrives at the flight deck::

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
Jade: Morning good looking

CNS_Brandash says:
::Is on flight deck just watching everyone and thinking about everything::

CMO_JadeStone says:
John: How's it ....::thinks better of the statement and closes her mouth::

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
::Snickers:: Jade: Wouldn't you like to know

XO_Jezabell says:
CNS: How are you holding up?

CTO_Tom_Jax says:
:: Sitting at a console, kicking his feet::

CMO_JadeStone says:
John: Actually, I do know ::smiles::

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Smacks him on the behind::

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
::Snickers and smacks her on the caboose:: Jade: Good animal woman

XO_Jezabell says:
CTO: Can you give me the ETA Tom?

CTO_Tom_Jax says:
XO: To what?

CNS_Brandash says:
XO: I am holding up. Just tired I guess.

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Purrs and brandishes her claws::

XO_Jezabell says:
CTO: D'huh! To Epsilon Hydra maybe? :: sticks out her tongue ::

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
Jade: Feisty

Host Loren says:
ACTION:  LRS pick up a faint contact.  A vessel, on an intercept course.  ETA, 10 minutes

CTO_Tom_Jax says:
::Shruges and turns away::

XO_Jezabell says:
CNS: Not an easy trip, eh?

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
CNS: Contact on intercept course on LRS

CMO_JadeStone says:
John: You should know..........::walks over to a nearby console and takes a seat::

CNS_Brandash says:
XO: Not really.  Just  doing a lot of thinking and hoping....

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
Jade: I always do, keep the gears inline and maintained

CNS_Brandash says:
CSO:  Alright.

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Rolls her eyes and smiles to herself::

XO_Jezabell says:
CNS: Well, you'll make it. Now, listen to what John has to say here.... it seems we have a 
vessel on our LRS...

CNS_Brandash says:
XO:  I will....

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
CNS: Suggest we hail and raise shields, we are on a collision course

CTO_Tom_Jax says:
::Reads over the console and rubs his hands together to warm them:: XO: that ship coming looks like a scout ship, wouldn't you know its a class used by the Orion syndicate.

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Brings up the scanners on her console, waiting on getting a lifesign reading::

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
Aloud: Switching to SRS, ETA 10 minutes

Host Loren says:
ACTION:  The scout ship charges its weapons and raises its shields.

XO_Jezabell says:
ALL: looks like we'll have company.

CNS_Brandash says:
CSO:  Yeah that would be a good thing.   go for it

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
CTO: Raise shields

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Continues to try and get lifesign readings on the approaching ship::

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
CNS: Hostile intent, target is charging weapons, suggest we run for it

XO_Jezabell says:
CNS: Good idea ::as she sits at a console:: you can do it and if you need help...

CTO_Tom_Jax says:
::Raises shields:: CSO: Don't I get orders from the CNS or XO?

CNS_Brandash says:
CSO:  I do not want no one hurt so let’s get going out of the way...

CMO_JadeStone says:
CNS: I'm reading lifesigns. Orion, seven in all.

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
CTO You do what I tell you to do in a combat situation, or we will have problems

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
::Puffing his cover ego;:

CNS_Brandash says:
CMO:  Alright....   ::just turns and looks at everyone::

XO_Jezabell says:
CSO: John is right Tom. :: notes down on a PADD the info coming in ::

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
CMO: Hard to starboard increase to emergency warp

CTO_Tom_Jax says:
Whispers: same problems...different ship. ::Continues to walk the console::

Vodjot says:
@COMM: Roxanne: Vodjot to unidentified vessel. Please respond.

XO_Jezabell says:
::Whispers:: CNS: Be strong and remember UNDERCOVER, we have a delivery to make at Epsilon Hydra on Vole's behalf....

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
CNS: Do you wish to respond?

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Jumps over to the flight control and moves the ship hard to starboard and plots an escape::

Host Loren says:
ACTION:  The Roxie creeks and groans, but increases warp speed.  She breaks warp 6....  warp 7....

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
::Analyzing force vectors and flight paths::

CNS_Brandash says:
CSO: Sure would you like to or .....

Vodjot says:
@ COMM: Roxanne: I repeat, I am Vodjot to unidentified vessel. Respond please.

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Holds on tight as the ship seems to have a life of her own::

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
CNS: You are in command, I have faith in you

XO_Jezabell says:
ALL: Let's try not to go over 8.2 because beyond that it's uncharted territory for the Roxie

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Laughs to herself as she is tempted to com back that the line is busy and to leave a message::

CMO_JadeStone says:
XO: Holding steady at warp 7.5

CNS_Brandash says:
COMM: Vodjot: This is the ship Roxie, And I am CNS. Brandash how may we help you?

Host Loren says:
ACTION:  The whole ship begins to vibrate, as the ship strains to hold speed.  In engineering a warning alarm sounds, as an over amount of antimatter is injected into the warp core.

XO_Jezabell says:
:: Nods at the CMO ::

CTO_Tom_Jax says:
::Holds on to the console:: Self: our old ship wouldn't shake this back

Host Loren says:
ACTION:  With a maximum speed of warp 7, the light attack scout begins to fall behind.

CMO_JadeStone says:
XO: she's bucking like a bronco, we need to bring her back down to a more moderate speed

Vodjot says:
@ COMM: Brandash: Ah, I was wondering if anyone was going to respond. Why are you fleeing? I only wished to learn of conditions along your route? Had any trouble? Over.

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
CMO: Suggest you throttle back to 7.9

XO_Jezabell says:
ALL: Gee, that about a shaky metallic box we have here.    CMO: Keep warp 7 for a few more seconds so we go a bit further than drop down to 6 and let's see how things shake there

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
CNS: Obvious lie, they are weapons hot, let’s leave them behind

CMO_JadeStone says:
CSO: She's only doing 7.5 ::grins::

CMO_JadeStone says:
XO: Aye aye Mistress

XO_Jezabell says:
::Wonders what the CNS will respond to that to not make the Orion suspicious::

XO_Jezabell says:
CMO: Slave :: grins ::

CNS_Brandash says:
COM: Vodjot:: Well, I have my reasons.  And I have to get somewhere in a short time

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
::Belly laugh::

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Reduces the Roxie's speed to warp 6 and feels the ships vibrations smooth out::

CNS_Brandash says:
CSO: I agree on that.

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Looks at the XO and raises her eye brow:: XO: I am no one's slave! ::shouts::

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Gives John "the look"::

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
Jade: You'd fetch a high price on the market ::snickers::

CTO_Tom_Jax says:
::Hears the CMOs comment, then looks over at the CSO::

Host Loren says:
ACTION:  The light attack scout continues to fall behind, she is soon well outside of weapons range

Vodjot says:
@ COM: Brandash: Aren't you going the wrong way then? You're going back along your original course. How odd. You wouldn't be carrying anything illegal would you? Something that could be reported?

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
CNS: Orions are falling behind, suggest you not even respond to them and let’s keep going

CMO_JadeStone says:
John: Yes, I am a prized item on the slave market, but I fear that no one could afford me........not like you do, at least.

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Maintaining warp 6::

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
Jade: I could use some extra pocket money, maybe I sell you at the next port

XO_Jezabell says:
CNS/CSO: Maybe make it sound like we've lost com?

CNS_Brandash says:
CSO:  Let’s just get out of here... XO:  Yeah that would be best i think John.....

CMO_JadeStone says:
John: I don't think so human.  I'll see to it that you'll not even live to regret it.

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
CNS: Besides a bunch of Orions are definitely up to no good, they probably wanted to loot us

XO_Jezabell says:
::Nods at the CSO::

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
Jade: In your dreams

XO_Jezabell says:
CTO: You are awfully quiet

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Smiles slyly:: John: No dear, in your wildest dreams

CTO_Tom_Jax says:
XO: Sometimes its for the better :: motions to the CSO:: just keeping my mouth shut

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
Jade: Maybe......

XO_Jezabell says:
CTO: Remember our talk from before we came here... anyway... not time to deal with this now... let's keep an eye on our mission

Host Loren says:
ACTION:  After getting her second wind, the Roxie pushes on, for the next 4 or 5 hours, and is now closing rapidly on the Epsilon Hydra system.  She has kept the light attack scout well behind in her wake the whole time

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
::Lounging in his flight chair::

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Reaches for a sandwich and takes a large bite and decreases to warp one::

XO_Jezabell says:
::Stretches:: ALL: Can’t wait to arrive at destination...

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
CNS: Suggest we secure from warp now approaching Epsilon Hydra

CTO_Tom_Jax says:
XO: Me being quiet was trying to keep on mission...

CMO_JadeStone says:
CNS: We're coming into range of EH, I'm ready to go sublight.

CNS_Brandash says:
CSO:   Yeah and lets do the scans for Winters and the others as well...

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
::Takes an inhuman bite of the CMO's sandwich, wipes crumbs on his sleeve::

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
::Scanning for Seamus and the CO::

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Narrows eyes as her sandwich disappears::

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
Aloud: Beeelch

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Thinks:: Pig

CMO_JadeStone says:
XO/CNS: Dropping out of warp....

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
Jade: You know you love me greenie

Host Loren says:
ACTION:  The Roxie slows to impulse, her overheated warp drive venting plasma like there's no tomorrow.  The Roxie enters the system perimeter

CMO_JadeStone says:
:;Smoothes out her flight path towards the system::

CNS_Brandash says:
CMO: Thank you .

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
Jade: Oink

CMO_JadeStone says:
John: Pink skin.

Vodjot says:
@ COM: Roxanne: Very well, Roxanne. Go ahead and run away. But know this. One day you will pay for destroying Boros 5. I only hope that it's I who collect the bounty on your worthless hides. Adieu!

XO_Jezabell says:
CSO: Any sign of our men?

CTO_Tom_Jax says:
::Watches over his sensors::

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Looks around:: ALL: we destroyed Boros 5?

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
XO: No sign from sensors, something about Boros 5

Host Loren says:
ACTION:  A transmission comes through the interference.

Host Loren says:
<Tore> @COMM.  Roxie:  Freighter Roxanne!  Come to course heading 051 by 105, enter orbit Epsilon Seven and hold for instructions.

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Plots course:: COM: this is the Roxie, course plotted and engaging.

XO_Jezabell says:
::Shurgs:: ALL: Maybe that was our test? We can't deal with it now anyway...

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
::Finishes off Jade's sandwich::

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
::Picks teeth::

Host Loren says:
<Tore> @COMM.  Roxie:  Don't need to respond, just follow my order

CMO_JadeStone says:
XO/CNS: coming up on the coordinates.  COM: Whatever.

XO_Jezabell says:
ALL: Someone is touchy...

Host Loren says:
ACTION:  A piece of food flies out of the CSO's mouth and lands on the CMO's neck

CNS_Brandash says:
CMO: Alright..

CTO_Tom_Jax says:
Self: Ewww ::Looks over at the CMO::

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Rubs the back of her neck where something struck it and pulls her hand away:: John: You gross fool.

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
::Looks surly at the CMO::

Host Loren says:
ACTION:  The Roxie moves through the choppy space of the star system and approaches Epsilon 7.

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
::Moves over to Flight Control, opens up a Sci Display and sits next to Jade::

CMO_JadeStone says:
XO/CNS: We've arrived, holding position.

XO_Jezabell says:
:: Nods::

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
::Nudges Jade::

Host Loren says:
ACTION:  A shuttle of unknown configuration climbs out of the atmosphere, and approaches the Roxanne.

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
CNS: Incoming shuttle

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Ignores the CSO::

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
::Fluffs her hair::

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Remains focused::

CTO_Tom_Jax says:
CNS: What the CSO said....::he likes to beat me to it::

CO_Winters says:
@COM:Roxane: Good ta see ya guys! Ya miss me? Nevermind, don't answer that. Prepare to receive my shuttle.

CNS_Brandash says:
CSO?CTO: Watch the shuttle.     and make sure it is him

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Looks up:: XO: that's Winters voice!

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
::Using SRS::

CO_Winters says:
@::Brings the shuttle in on a smooth parabolic arc to line up with the Roxie::

XO_Jezabell says:
CMO: Yeah... well, sounds like it.... not to sound suspicious but make sure it's REALLY him when he comes aboard

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
Com: Winters: Maybe we shouldn’t let you in

CTO_Tom_Jax says:
CNS: Did you need me to watch, seems the CSOs got it covered, I’ll just watch shields.

CMO_JadeStone says:
CTO: Get down there and make sure its him, prepare the shuttle bay for visitors

CNS_Brandash says:
CTO:  That is a good choice.   Just be ready for anything

CO_Winters says:
@ COM:CSO: That is one option open to you....but....I wouldn't recommend taking it.

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
CMO: Such bossy greenie

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
Com: Winters: Listen to the wind blow

XO_Jezabell says:
ALL: Let's make sure it's him first... Scans and all.

XO_Jezabell says:
COM: CO: We want to make sure it's really you Winters

CTO_Tom_Jax says:
::Gets up and heads to the Shuttle bay:: Self: one is the loneliness number...

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Taps the comm and checks his biosigns;:

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
XO: <subcutaneous> Sensors detect his transmitter

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
::Nudges the CMO::

CMO_JadeStone says:
XO: It's Winters biosigns alright.

XO_Jezabell says:
ALL: Then, let's bring him in!

CO_Winters says:
@ COM: XO: Funny... I was just thinking the 'xact same thing 'bout y'all.

CMO_JadeStone says:
XO: One biosign only, he's alone.

CTO_Tom_Jax says:
::Gets to the shuttle bay, and prepares it for the shuttle::

CO_Winters says:
@ ::Aims the shuttle for the Roxie's shuttle bay.::

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
::Puts his feet up on the console::

CMO_JadeStone says:
*CTO*: vacate the shuttlebay, he's coming in.

XO_Jezabell says:
:: Sighs :: CMO: Well, we should have expected that this wouldn't have been easy and that both of them wouldn't have been handed to us on a silver platter

CTO_Tom_Jax says:
*CMO*: All ready I think

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
::Yawns::

CMO_JadeStone says:
COM: Shuttle, you are cleared, enter when ready

CO_Winters says:
@ COM: Roxanne: Roger. Landing in 15....14..

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Holds the Roxie steady::

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
::Pokes Jade::

CO_Winters says:
@ ::Pilots the shuttle in for a pretty smooth landing all things considered.::

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Nods to the XO::

Host Loren says:
ACITON:  The shuttle enters the bay, manual docking, minimal fuss

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Ignore the husband::

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
::Snickers to himself::

CMO_JadeStone says:
XO: He's onboard, closing shuttle bay doors

CO_Winters says:
@ ::Powers down the shuttle and exits::

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Pressurizes the shuttle bay::

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
::Brushes off dog fur from his pants::

XO_Jezabell says:
ALL: We need to check out that shuttle ::gets up and heads for shuttle bay::

CTO_Tom_Jax says:
::Enters the shuttle bay again, and waits for the CO::

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
XO: Knock yourself out

CO_Winters says:
::Looks around the bay and sees the CTO::

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
::Stretches::

CO_Winters says:
CTO: Heya Tom! How's things?

CMO_JadeStone says:
XO: You want me to place the Roxie on autopilot just to see if it's Winter?

CTO_Tom_Jax says:
CO: Welcome back mate, good good, just need some prove you are who you are suppose to be.

CO_Winters says:
CTO: ::Rolls eyes, but winks:: Well, that just figures don't it. Well, make it quick. I have to pilot this rustbucket down. ::Grins::

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
::Lights up a cigarette::

XO_Jezabell says:
CSO: Have Brandash or John take the helm and answer calls.

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
XO: Someone's got to mind the store ::puff::

CNS_Brandash says:
CMO:  I will take it for now. til you get back

CTO_Tom_Jax says:
CO: Just tell me something about yourself...:: hides a tricorder and runs a quick scan::

XO_Jezabell says:
::Continues her way to shuttle bay::

CMO_JadeStone says:
:Stands and stretches:: CNS: Have a ball

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
::Takes a sip of some good whiskey::

CNS_Brandash says:
CMO:  thanks

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Bumps into the CSO by accident and watches the drink spill down his shirt:: Whoops! Sorry!

XO_Jezabell says:
::Arrives in shuttle bay and stops next to Tom and Winters::

CTO_Tom_Jax says:
CO: Looking good mate

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
Jade: Feisty aren’t you ? ::smelling of vintage whiskey now::

CTO_Tom_Jax says:
XO: Better late then never, he looks like he checks out

CMO_JadeStone says:
:;Walks past the CSO and joins the XO::

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
Aloud: Women

XO_Jezabell says:
CO: Welcome back... so what we have here? ::looks at the shuttle::

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Chuckles as she can hear his comment in her head::

CNS_Brandash says:
::Looks at the CSO::

OPS_Marica_Skenal says:
::Wanders onto the flight deck sleepy eyed after a power nap.::  All: What's happening?

CO_Winters says:
CTO: Well, lets see. Middle names Obadiah...tell no one! I was orphaned on New Berlin and first served aboard the rust bucket. That good enough for you?

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Enters the shuttle bay:: CO: welcome back

CTO_Tom_Jax says:
::Rolls eyes at the lack of response from the XO::

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
::Puffs on his cigarette and puts the whiskey away::

CO_Winters says:
XO: Oh that. Just a means to an end. Getting me back here mostly.

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Looks at the XO:: XO: it's him, I can read him.

CO_Winters says:
CMO: ::Nods:: Jade.

CTO_Tom_Jax says:
::Laughs:: CO: you must have had a tough child hood, your ok.

XO_Jezabell says:
CMO/CTO: Good to know he's the real thing.

CMO_JadeStone says:
CO: ::Nods:: Winters.

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
*CNS* Is that blowhard back on board yet?

XO_Jezabell says:
CO: So what happened to you? ::motions at the CTO to check out the shuttle::

OPS_Marica_Skenal says:
CO: Oh look who just decided to join us, Welcome back Mate.

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Chuckles as she'd never get away with calling the CO by his last name only on the DJ::

CTO_Tom_Jax says:
XO: would you like it washed, maybe a good wax too? :: shakes head and moves over to the shuttle::

CNS_Brandash says:
*CSO* yes I believe so

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
*CNS* Too bad

XO_Jezabell says:
CTO: Nah, just the specs.

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Grins at the CTO's comment::

OPS_Marica_Skenal says:
::Walks past the CSO, still smelling the smoke and whiskey smell.:: CSO: Whew, take it easy on that stuff will ya?

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
OPS: I gotta be me, smoke? ::hold out a pack::

CTO_Tom_Jax says:
XO: you know you can get your hands dirty love, heaven forbid you break a nail.

CO_Winters says:
XO: Well, the Dragons thought they'd found something in my past. A discrepancy. Can you imagine such a thing of such a pillar of the community as myself. So they pulled me off for some questioning. But it was no big deal. So I got some secrets....who don't? Anyway, they were satisfied, and wanted to see how you all would do without me anyway.

CTO_Tom_Jax says:
::Takes a look inside the shuttle::

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Holds back the laughter and decides she needs to exit before she really loses it::

OPS_Marica_Skenal says:
CSO: Never touch them.  Mint?  ::Holds a spearmint wrapped out to him.::

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Exits the shuttle bay quickly::

CO_Winters says:
All: Well, I'd love to stay and catch up, but somebody's gotta fly this ship down there, and I'm the one who knows the drill. ::grins::

XO_Jezabell says:
CO: Discrepancies... gee... they are touchy. Well, to bring you up to speed, we have a delivery to make still...

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
OPS: Never touch em ::grins and switches to a fresh grown Cuban cigar::

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Heads back to the bridge::

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
::Thoroughly enjoying his Cuban Cigar::

CMO_JadeStone says:
::Walks by John and grabs the pack of smokes AND the cigar and breaks then into small pieces::

CNS_Brandash says:
::Smiles::

OPS_Marica_Skenal says:
CSO: I suppose the scent is what makes it so enjoyable, huh?

CO_Winters says:
XO: Yup, so let's head back to the bridge and I'll pilot us down. It's a bit tricky. They chose their spot well. If you don't know the flight path, you'll become nothing but a grease smear.

CSO_John_Typhoon says:
::Pulls one out of his shirt and lights another in stride:: Jade: Expected that ::puff::

OPS_Marica_Skenal says:
CMO: High five Jade.
