@::Glances over at Zin:: Zin: How far from those caves do you think we are?
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
::on the bridge she glances at the viewscreen thoughtfully::
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
CO: Cap'n we've lost one of the fighters.
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
*TIC*: Launch Blade squad. Blade CO will take the lead.
Host CJ-Tala says:
ACTION - Blade Squadron launches from the fighter bays and joins the fray. A few stray shots from the Airilians graze against the Scimitar's hull.
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
::rocks with the hits and fires again::
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
::nods:: CTO: Understood.  And the status of their fighters?
Host CJ-Tala says:
ACTION - The Scimitar's main weapons turn on the lead Airilian fighter and fire - the small craft is immediately disabled, and spirals out of control before exploding...
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
::shakes her head as she grasps the seat::
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
@Zin: I asked you something....  
CMO_Ens_Abmeraz says:
@::Sees the CEO still working on the fried consoles as he turns around to investigate the leak at the side of the craft::
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
CTO: Like shooting ducks in a barrel :;grins:: *Bat'leth*: If AT arrives give them cover.
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
::turns his fire on the next fighter while launching torpedoes on the others::
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
::grins:: FCO: I always thought it was fish in a barrel.
CSO_Lt_Delar says:
::slowly sits up and swings his legs over the edge of the Biobed, wrinkling his nose at the pins and needles forming while feeling returns to his legs:: Self: I feel like I’ve slept for a month...
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
::fires again::
Host CJ-Tala says:
ACTION - A golden sun crests over the hills and fills the valleys with a yellow light. The red plants around Brenna seem to pull back into the shadows, and she is left covered in scratches and feeling drained.
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
CTO: I'm English, what do I know :: grins::
CIV_Capt_Black says:
::on the bridge of the Scimitar, monitoring things from there::
CMO_Ens_Abmeraz says:
@::Sees a bright light coming into the shuttles opening and heads outside to see where it comes from::
Host Lt_Alina_Zin says:
@::She glances down at her tricorder and then up into the golden light, shielding her eyes:: XO: It'd say five minutes...the team could easily move between here and the rock formations...
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
*Blade*: get those Airilians out of the sky faster, Exeter out.
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
::grins a bit wider:: FCO: Let's not bring up past cultural feuds Mr. Exeter.
SO_Ens_Pierce says:
@::Takes some more readings from the tricorder, scanning local plant life he encounters::
OPS_Lt_Delar says:
@::lays back on the grass moaning quietly :: Self: I hate plants...when I get home that ficus is getting it
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
::turns to the CIV:: CIV: There has still been no reports regarding Dr Weston's team. Brenna Delar is also on the surface.
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
@Zin: Let's notify them.  
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
::watches the power relays to main weapons as he continues to fire on the Airlian Fighters::
CMO_Ens_Abmeraz says:
@::He has to shield his eyes from the bright light as he steps outside. He looks around at the local plant life to see what kind of an effect it has on the flowers.::
SO_Ens_Pierce says:
@::Looking at his tricorder he sees that all plants in the vicinity are also in the database he recovered.. at least they did a decent job scanning the area::
Host Lt_Alina_Zin says:
@::She continues scanning and nods to Lessing in acknowledgement, but makes no move to actually contact the rest of the team, instead waiting for the Executive Officer to carry out his own recommendation::
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
@*AT*: Lessing to away team.  Lieutenant Zin and I have discovered a cave system, which could be used for shelter.  If necessary, head in our direction.  I am uploading the co-ordinates too your tricorders now.  
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
@Zin: Something about this planet bothers me.  It's too... perfect.
Host Lt_Alina_Zin says:
ACTION - Seven Airilian fighters go down in a blaze. A wing of three ships make a run for the ship, firing volleys against the dorsal shields, as members of Bat'leth Squadron follow close behind...
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
CTO: Well, if we had john here we really would have a nice place to have a feud. He's Irish :;grins::
Host Lt_Alina_Zin says:
@XO: Have you considered the option that perhaps it is because society has not corrupted it yet?
CSO_Lt_Delar says:
::stands up and mumbles as the ship rocks under his feet, but feeling glad that at least he can remain upright and stable:: Self: Have to find Brenna.
CSO_Lt_Delar says:
::heading over to a replicator he materializes a uniform and pulls it on before walking out, headed for the bridge::
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
::looks at OPS from her seat, checks the console again and then sighs, turning her attention once more to the CTO and FCO::
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
@Zin: I have yes.  But it's more than that.
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
FCO: Irish huh? ::thinks back to British history ::As I recall they sided with the Scots.
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
@*:OPS*: Lieutenant Delar, report.
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
CTO: And Eventually we all fought under the same flag :: grins::
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
FCO: Amen to that. ::grins and fires again::
SO_Ens_Pierce says:
@*XO*: Need some assistance sir? I reckon Lt. Zin covered all other buildings, so I could go your way or scan the area around here.
CMO_Ens_Abmeraz says:
@::Receives the message along with the coordinates from the XO as he checks his tricorder. He goes inside to check on the CEO again as he wants to head to those caves too::::
Host Lt_Alina_Zin says:
ACTION - In the golden light, the away team members see streaks of burning fire in the late afternoon sky as the debris from the Airilian fighters begins to burn up in the upper ionisphere...
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
::gets no response from Brenna, so sets his tricorder to scan for her life signs::
CSO_Lt_Delar says:
::walks into a turbolift and attaches his commbadge, tapping it before calling out for Brenna...hearing only a pip of non-connection::
OPS_Lt_Delar says:
@::looks around eyeing the bushes and things around her shining in the beautiful sun of the odd planet no wanting to move again for fear the planet tries to eat her again and having a divine understanding for what omit must feel like after new years::
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
CTO: Aye to that ::chuckles, ordering Blade to start the mop of those fighters::
Host Lt_Alina_Zin says:
ACTION - The Scimitar weapons fire takes out two more Airilian fighters, but at the same time three ships from Blade Squadron are disabled and left adrift. The Scimitar rocks to port.
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
@::Sees the burning debris in the sky:: Zin: Look at that!  I think the Scimitar is having fun without us.
CSO_Lt_Delar says:
::steps out of the TL and looks around the bridge for a moment, frowning slightly as a fuzzy memory returns to him:: Self: So we didn't die....
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
::locks on to the pilots of Blade squad and waits till he can beam them aboard.::
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
::gets a lock on the three disabled pilots and beams them to sickbay::
CNS_Pepys says:
@::Wanders up to the SO and looks around::
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
CTO: Status of our shields? ::checks how many Airilians are left::
CMO_Ens_Abmeraz says:
@SO: Ensign Pierce, have you also received the coordinates from the XO? Please advice of your situation.
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
*Duty MO*: Doc, I have three pilots inbound for sickbay, check them over before they go anywhere.
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
@*CO*: Need any help Captain?
Host Lt_Alina_Zin says:
ACTION - Zin moves down a clearing in the trees and deeper into the valley. The leaves around her and Lessing seems to shimmer in the golden light as they get closer to the rocky caves.
CSO_Lt_Delar says:
::clears his throat and walks over to his console::.
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
@*SO*: I think you should head our way.  The Scimitar is probably in the middle of a firefight, and I'd like the away team together.
SO_Ens_Pierce says:
@CMO: Affirmative, I’m behind Zin and the XO, at a few hundred feet
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
CO: Shields at 79% and holding Cap'n.
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
@*AT: All away team personnel converge on the caves.
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
::checks sensors:: CO: We got 3 Capital Ships inbound 4,5 Ly away
CMO_Ens_Abmeraz says:
@SO: Good, just remember to keep an eye on Zin for me. I'll be clearing things up around here and be heading your way soon.
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
*XO*: We should be fine, however you may have guessed the Airilians know of our presence, if you have anyway of speeding up the return of Brenna and the science team please do so.
SO_Ens_Pierce says:
@XO: Aye sir, looks like we have uninvited guests up there
OPS_Lt_Delar says:
@::Gets a brilliant idea and at the top of her lungs shouts the only logical thing in her battered mind:: Anyone: Marco!
CMO_Ens_Abmeraz says:
<Duty MO> *CTO*: Aye aye sir. Sickbay will be ready.
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
::nods:: FCO: Noted. Thank you.
Host Lt_Alina_Zin says:
ACTION - The serene environment around Brenna seems to be calming, no other sounds besides herself can be heard...all is peaceful...
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
*Duty MO*: Acknowledged.
CSO_Lt_Delar says:
::accesses the ships sensors and runs a sweep of the planet for Brenna's life signs::
CMO_Ens_Abmeraz says:
<Duty MO> ::Runs around preparing sickbay the best he can, appearing a little nervous:: Self: Don't panic, you can do this. Just don't panic.
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
CIV: Well Captain it seems we have a few hours grace to search this planet.
Host Lt_Alina_Zin says:
ACTION - An Airilian fighter tears through part of the dorsal shields, but the back-up generators kick in and the shields reform before the next strike can do any damage. Five Airilian fighters remain...
OPS_Lt_Delar says:
@::sighs deeply closing her eyes and trying in a vain attempt reaching out with her mind beyond herself and praying hard, reaching for Rowan, high above in the Scimitar putting everything she can into it and praying for a miracle::
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
::opens fire one the remaining 5 fighters with all weapons::
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
*Blade, Bat'leth* Form on the Scimitar and blast those fighters!!!!
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
::gets up and heads to Rowan:: CSO: Lt, Good to see you back ::is stunned by his presence::
SO_Ens_Pierce says:
@::Since he now as legitimate reasons to be near her, he steps up the pace and moves towards Zin::
CSO_Lt_Delar says:
CO: I'd love to stop, Commander, but I’ve not been cleared for duty yet. I'm just looking for Brenna.
Host Lt_Alina_Zin says:
ACTION - As the Away Team moves through the golden leaves, they see in the distance a rocky opening to a cave, in the side of the nearby hill...
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
CSO: Have you been cleared to leave sickbay?
CMO_Ens_Abmeraz says:
@::Walks over to the CEO and tabs him on the shoulder:: CEO: Okay Lieutenant, I think there's nothing more for us to do here. The other have grouped up and headed into some caves. I have the coordinates right here, let's go and join them.
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
:: checks his phaser and setting then looks at Delar's direction:: self: I just hope he makes a move.
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
::fires again, targeting the lead vessel one again::
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
CSO: I know where Brenna is ::adding silently in her mind, 'roughly'::
CSO_Lt_Delar says:
CO: Sickbay was empty, Commander. I didn't stop to chat...::looks up from his console:: Whe4re?
CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
@CMO: cant right now i must try and see if i can cleat these plants off the shuttle and bring full power back.
Host Lt_Alina_Zin says:
ACTION - As the Kaneda fighters move around to disable the remaining five craft, MacAllister destroys one more...the final four begin break formation and begin to move away...
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
@Zin: Did you look at the geological reports for the planet?
SO_Ens_Pierce says:
@::Moving towards the coordinates indicated by his tricorder he sees the cave entrance approaching::
CIV_Capt_Black says:
::moves to the back of the bridge as he taps his commbadge::  *Zin*: Black to Zin...
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
::sends a single volley of torpedoes after the retreating craft and ceases fire::
OPS_Lt_Delar says:
@::trying desperately to reach out to Rowan and getting little response she moans screaming again:: Anyone: MARCO!
Host Lt_Alina_Zin says:
@::She nods and glances over at him as they move closer to the cave formations:: XO: Yes Commander, I studied the known data carefully...there is nothing significant about the cave formations...
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
*Blade*: Disable those fighters and return home. ::looks around:: *Bat'leth*: secure the perimeter and form up on the scimitar.
CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
::begins to lean the plants off and attempts to bring full power back to the shuttle::
CMO_Ens_Abmeraz says:
@::Shakes his head:: CEO: I understand that you wish to find out what happened to them, but I think you have done all you can here. I have to insist that you come along. I am not leaving you here behind. ::Gestures him to come along::
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
@Zin: I was thinking more about the lack of meteorite craters.
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
CSO: She is not onboard at this time. But I need your help with the reports on this planet, I am no scientist however what I have seen is odd.
CSO_Lt_Delar says:
::frowns slightly:: CO: Odd?
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
CTO/FCO: Nice shooting. Now lets see how the away team is getting along.
Host Lt_Alina_Zin says:
@::She nods:: XO: There are fourteen planets in this system...it is likely that the larger gas giant formations have protected this planet from larger impacts...
OPS_Lt_Delar says:
@::looks around feeling like something else is there with her, she moves her eyes about and cautiously makes moves to sit up::
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
CO: Just mopping up now, ma'am. We got 10 hours to get the AT off the planet, ma'am.
Host Lt_Alina_Zin says:
ACTION - As Brenna sits up, the color begins to bleed back into her sight. The colors are vibrant and almost overwhelming in the golden sunlight...
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
::nods:: CSO: Yes take a look, taps the console next to him and displays the information from the scans on this perfect planet. Nothing has as much as scratched the surface of this planet ever from what I can tell.
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
@Zin: In the billions of years this planet has been around, at least one or two meteors would have gotten through.  But there's no sign of ANY craters.  :: sighs :: another mystery...
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
*XO: Commander Report please.
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
*CO*: Yes Captain?
CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
@CMO: look i need a few more hours and i can get full power back in this shuttle and we may fly over to the rest of the crew.
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
::scans the surface of the planet for life signs and movement::
Host Lt_Alina_Zin says:
XO; While low, the probability remains...SO: ...isn't that so, Ensign?
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
::nods to the FCO:: *XO*: There is a ten hour window, how is the search progressing?
CSO_Lt_Delar says:
CO: I'm unsure. It would need more analysis and far more active scanning.
SO_Ens_Pierce says:
@::Greets Zin and the XO:: Zin: I didn't hear the original question ma'am
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
*CO*: There is no sign of Lieutenant Delar, and I have not yet had a report form the rest of the away team, Captain.
OPS_Lt_Delar says:
@::she looks around holding her hand in front o her face and marveling at the million brilliant colours reflected by the diamond on her engagement ring::
CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
@Self: come on you peas of crap get working i need power know.
CMO_Ens_Abmeraz says:
@::Points to the leak:: CEO: I don't think you will manage in a few hours. Besides, we don't have a few hours. ::Kind of towing the CEO along he heads out of the shuttle and starts hiking towards the coordinates he received from the XO::
CIV_Capt_Black says:
::moves to the back of the bridge as he taps his commbadge::  *Zin*: Black to Zin...
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
*XO*: thank you, report back when you have something, we'll notify you when your time is growing short down there.
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
CO: We could send down a runabout, ma'am to pick the team up. We can start a search for OPS on the ship, ma'am.
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
*CMO*: How soon before the repairs are completed to the shuttle?
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
*CO*: Thank you captain.  If i do not respond, beam us all out immediately.  I have the strangest feeling....
Host Lt_Alina_Zin says:
@::Zin pauses near the cave entrance and taps her Starfleet issue comm badge, the silver acting as a strong contrast to the black Starfleet Intelligence uniform:: *CIV*: Lieutenant Zin here...
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
FCO: I am hoping the CSO will be able to help with this now he is back.
CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
@CMO: come on i am close to getting full power.
CSO_Lt_Delar says:
::begins trawling through the transporter logs, looking for Brenna's bio signature in the destinations list::
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
CSO: How well can you work your magic with those scans to locate life signs of a science team and your wife on this planet?
CIV_Capt_Black says:
*Zin*: How are you coming along, Lieutenant...?
CSO_Lt_Delar says:
::frowns as he finds only a single possible match, noting the large irregularities he cross-references his findings with the last medical scans of Brenna while she was in Sickbay::
CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
@:: that’s it starts to walk towards the shuttle draggin the CMO::
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
FCO: How close can you get us to the planet?
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
CSO: Here you are ::passes a Padd with the coordinates, etc::
OPS_Lt_Delar says:
@::Slowly tries to stand, whimpering at all her little aches and grumbling over her half shredded uniform::
CMO_Ens_Abmeraz says:
@*CO*: I was just about to give up on her ma'am. According to the CEO it can still take a few hours, ma'am.
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
CTO: Ships needs to stay completely intact I could push the ship through the atmosphere
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
CSO: You can help from here. ::her eyes fix on him::
Host Lt_Alina_Zin says:
@*CIV*: We are currently at the mouth of a cave, which we believe may be sheltering Doctor Weston and her team...it could be used as an acceptable shelter in a combat situation, sir...
SO_Ens_Pierce says:
@::Scans the cave entrance while waiting for Zin to finish her conversation, stealing glances at her::
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
FCO: Seems to me that whatever happened to the missing team, took out their runabout so we'd probably be as well taking the Tal-War in ::grins::
CSO_Lt_Delar says:
CO: Already done, Commander. I've found a match for Brenna, 45 minutes from the away team. ::locking onto himself he sets the destination coordinates for Brenna and initiates a transport::
Host Lt_Alina_Zin says:
ACTION - With the ship away from the planet, the transporters do not engage, they will need to move closer...
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
CTO: You mean the Scimitar, lt. But I think I can push her through. Would need a lot of power to get her out.
CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
@CMO: ok you can let go of me i just wait than.
CSO_Lt_Delar says:
::frowns:: CO: we're out of range for a transport. I want to be down on the planet, Commander.
CIV_Capt_Black says:
::nods while assessing the situation::  *Zin*: Very well, keep an eye out then... there might be a backup module for data in that place as well....
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
::notes from his console that someone is accessing transporter controls from the bridge and looks to the CSO::
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
::immediately reacts, pausing noting nothing happened and breathes a sigh of relief:: CSO: Need I ensure that the transporters may not be utilized without my authorization for the duration of this mission? Or will you assist us from here?
Host Lt_Alina_Zin says:
*CIV*: Understood. ::She glances towards Lessing and Pierce::
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
<Whispers> CTO: Would be better if we just shoot him and we are rid of him.
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
::discreetly locks the CSO out from transporter control::
OPS_Lt_Delar says:
@::pats herself up and down checking for any particularly broken bits then tries to assess her location checking for her equipment and finding nothing of help on her person:: Self: Dammit those fricken geraniums mugged me!
CSO_Lt_Delar says:
::sighs and shakes his head:: CO: I have no choice
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
CSO: Thank you. Please transmit Brenna's coordinates to the Away team. They can return her.
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
@SO: What do you think of the Lieutenant over there? :: quietly ::
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
::turns and gets out  his phaser:: self: here we go again!
CSO_Lt_Delar says:
::nods sullenly and opens a comm channel with the XO:: *XO*: Incoming coordinates. Bring my wife home safely. ::transmits::
CMO_Ens_Abmeraz says:
@::Looks back at the shuttle and to the CEO again, then sighs:: CEO: Okay, just go ahead and see what you can do with her. I'll try to help where ever I can, just tell me what I need to do.
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
@*CSO*: Will do, Lieutenant.  She means a lot to us as well.
OPS_Lt_Delar says:
@::looks around seeing no one near here but still feeling that odd sense of presence:: Epidia: Hello.. you still there?
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
CSO: We'll ensure she returns safely Lieutenant. ::smiles to him sympathetically then returns to her seat::
CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
@CMO: well help clear the plants for me i see if i can get the engines working.
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
::Puts his phaser away:: self: oh, he's co-operating for once :: goes back to his duty::
Host Lt_Alina_Zin says:
ACTION - The coordinates show up on Lessing’s tricorder, two valleys over, back towards the Weston camp.
SO_Ens_Pierce says:
@::Whispers back:: XO: Honestly? I think she's.. tough.. maybe even ruthless. .but i wonder how much of that is in her character and how much is in her duties
CMO_Ens_Abmeraz says:
@::Nods and starts clearing the plants from the shuttles engines::
SO_Ens_Pierce says:
@XO: But i would like to find out ::Blushes as he says something so openly to the XO::
Host Lt_Alina_Zin says:
@::Without even asking permission or checking with Lessing, Alina Zin pulls out her tricorder once more and marches directly into the cave::
CSO_Lt_Delar says:
::nods slowly and resumes to his sensor sweeps of the surrounding solar system::
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
::sends a text to the FCO's console:: FCO: He can't exactly go anywhere, I locked him out of transporter control.
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
CO: Should I  put the ship into orbit, ma'am. We can beam the AT over from the spot they are to the OPS area, ma'am.
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
@SO: Agreed.  ::Glances down at the tricorder, frowning at the co-ordinates::  Self: That's about 45 minutes away.
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
::nods:: FCO: Please do so. ::taps the console again adding instructions::
SO_Ens_Pierce says:
@XO: Can't the Scimitar beam us closer? Not that i mind a walk, but maybe she needs help pronto..
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
@::Shouts:: Zin: Did they not teach you away team safety measures at the academy?  ::Follows her in, grabbing her arm. ::
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
::sends a message back:: CTO: He's a crafty <censored> i heard from the commander.
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
::takes the Scimitar to a close orbit of the planet:: CO: done, ma'am.
Host Lt_Alina_Zin says:
ACTION - Zin lets out a yelp as Lessing grabs her, but not because of the unexpected grab, but because he just saved her from tumbling over a cliff. Her tricorder slips from her hand and down twenty stories into the darkness...
CMO_Ens_Abmeraz says:
@::Stops for a second to check up on the others:: *SO*: Mr. Pierce, the CEO and I have decided to try and get the shuttle back on-line and operational again. Please keep us informed of your situation. As soon as the shuttle works we will head to the encampment.
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
::replies to Exeter’s message:: FCO: I learned a few things about transporter control on my last ship, Believe me I can be just as crafty.
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
@::Gently pulls Zin back from the edge of the precipice::  Zin: That's why you ever go anywhere alone, Lieutenant.  You might learn how to fly, however briefly.
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
::replies to the CTO:: CTO: I rather have we shoot him now and be done with it, lt.
CSO_Lt_Delar says:
::frowns as his deep penetration scan turns up and almost shield-like entity within the planet:: Self: Curious...::targets his scan on the origin of those readings::
SO_Ens_Pierce says:
@::His heart pounding he sees the XO save Zin from falling down a ravine::
Host Lt_Alina_Zin says:
@::She gives him a glare and looks down the cliff into the abyss:: XO: It's quite unlikely they went down that way...unless there's another way down...
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
@Zin: I would tend to agree with you.  ::Irritated::
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
::texts the FCO again:: FCO: Just stay cool Mr. Exeter, If there's any shooting to be done, I'll do it.
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
::gives the CIV a very curious glance, unable to sit still much longer she returns to the CSO::
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
::replies to the CTO:: CTO: It's Jim.
SO_Ens_Pierce says:
@CMO: i will. ::Scans the cave entrance to see if there are ways to get over the cliff.. especially the ground gets his attention, to see if there are any marks that suggest a bridge of some kind::
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
@*CEO/CMO*: Gentlemen, I am uploading co-ordinates to your tricorders, of the current position of Lt. Delar.  Proceed there, rescue her, and then return here.
CMO_Ens_Abmeraz says:
@::Checks his tricorder:: *XO*: We have received it sir. We will head towards her right away.
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
@Zin: Are you all right, Lieutenant?
CSO_Lt_Delar says:
CO: Commander. I've found what appears to be a sort of.... well, shield is the wrong word....but the only one I can use to describe it. It's covering the entire planet and everything on it.
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
::replies to FCO:: FCO: Well Jim, I don't want you risking your career, however necessary you feel it is.
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
@::Walks back out of the caves, escorting Zin::
Host Lt_Alina_Zin says:
ACTION - The U.S.S. Scimitar moves into a high orbit around Zakratus VIII...and as they do, Rowan's sensor readings become more pronounced...
SO_Ens_Pierce says:
@::Seeing nothing that resembles scratch marks from a removable crossing device, he scans the dimensions:: XO: 100 meters wide and 200 meters deep sir. We could scan down there, who knows...
CMO_Ens_Abmeraz says:
@::Looks over to the CEO:: CEO: Well lieutenant, I guess we will have to leave the shuttle for what it is right now. Let's head towards the OPS. ::Points to the hills::
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
::replies to the CTO:: CTO: I don't give  a flying hoot about my career....I like shooting people.
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
::raises an eyebrow curiously:: CSO: Interesting...  Is there anything you can find generating this shield?
CSO_Lt_Delar says:
CO: The 'shield' is becoming more....well, powerful. But that's not the word either. ::frowns and wonders why his vocabulary won't explain this::
CSO_Lt_Delar says:
CO: it's coming from the centre of the planet...from the planet itself, as far as I can tell.
OPS_Lt_Delar says:
@::groans at being left alone again and follows her training of staying in one spot and not getting lost again, not entirely sure if she’s being found yet anyway::
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
CO: We are in orbit of the planet you want me to lock onto the AT and beam them closer to OPS-Delar, ma'am?
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
::Replies to FCO:: FCO: Then maybe you should have joined the Tactical Team. ::puts a smiley face on the text::
Host Lt_Alina_Zin says:
ACTION - As Brenna looks around the golden clearing, she recognizes the presence around her...her son...
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
::replies to the CTO:: CTO: I'm a Tactical man by training ::adds tongue sticking out at end::
CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
@*XO*: understood sir Harris out.
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
::nods to him:: CSO: So the planet is generating a force, are we able to interfere with it at all or effect it in any way?
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
@SO: Scan away.  Just don't fall.
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
@*CEO*: Thank you, Lieutenant Harris.
CSO_Lt_Delar says:
CO: I don't think so....but I would stake my life that the same doesn't apply to the field and us.
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
::nods:: FCO: If you could let them know and beam whichever people they wish to Delar's location. It could speed up this process.
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
@Zin: You up to joining us, back inside?
CMO_Ens_Abmeraz says:
@::Does not wait for the CEO's response and heads towards the location indicated on his tricorder::
CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
@::still working hard on that engine::
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
::replies to FCO:: FCO: Why did you join Flight corp. then?
OPS_Lt_Delar says:
@::closes her eyes and smiles feeling Bryn high above her and knowing he's safe:: Self: don't worry little one, mommy's coming home...I just don't know how yet. ::Stands up draws in full breath and starts singing the only thing she can think of, a very dirty limerick at the top of her lungs::
Host Lt_Alina_Zin says:
@::She nods and moves back into the cave, stepping more carefully this time:: Zin: Perhaps they climbed down?
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
*XO*: Delivery Service Scimitar here. You want an airlift to Brenna's location, sir?
SO_Ens_Pierce says:
@::smiles:: XO: I won't. ::Looks at Zin for a brief moment, then sits at the edge and scans downwards, trying to find other openings and such:: XO: Maybe it's an idea to get a rope here or something, so we can lower the tricorder. We could get better search data that way
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
CSO: Can you speculate what affect the field will have one the ship and our away teams?
CSO_Lt_Delar says:
CO: The field seems more.... concentrated...around Brenna. It's masking her signature, which is why I couldn't find her on my first sweep.
CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
@::gets up and runs behind the CMO and scares the day lights out of him::
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
CTO: Is everything still quite out there?
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
@Zin: Somehow, I don't think so.  See, no signs of any grappling equipment.  SO: Go ahead.
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
CO: there is a shuttle down there, ma'am, you want it to be taken onboard. I think if we boost power to the cargo transporters we can beam her onboard, ma'am.
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
CO: Scanning now Cap'n :: runs LRS and SRS scans::
CMO_Ens_Abmeraz says:
@::Nearly dropping his tricorder he looks back:: CEO: Yikes, don't ever do that again. Especially not on some alien planet. Now let's go find the OPS, shall we?
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
CSO: That would suggest some sort of intelligence is involved in programming or controlling the field, if it can pick out one person.
CSO_Lt_Delar says:
CSO: Or clever programming...Commander, I’d like to beam down to my wife's Coordinates.
CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
@CMO: come on Ens got to have fun once in a while.
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
CSO: What do you know of your wife's condition? Why would she wish to go to this planet? ::motions towards the Padd:: As noted her transportation down there was unauthorized and her awakening as surprising as yours.
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
::nods to the CTO with a smile::
CMO_Ens_Abmeraz says:
@::Nods:: CEO: Yes, but unfortunately my idea of fun is a little different from yours.
CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
@CMO: Okay lets do what you wanna… do lead on.
SO_Ens_Pierce says:
@XO: I don't seem to have 200 meters of rope on me sir ::smiles::
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
CSO: I will grant that permission if there is something you are able to do down there that is not possible for the team on the surface to accomplish, otherwise unfortunately without knowing your medical condition at this time, the most you can do is stay here, for which I am sure the Doctors will have words about later with both of us.
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
@SO: Do you have any rope on you?
Host Lt_Alina_Zin says:
@::Zin looks around at the rock face and sighs. She pauses briefly and looks over at the two officers::
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
CO: I have the Capital ships on an intercept course but they won't be here for another 13 hours.
CMO_Ens_Abmeraz says:
@::Turns his tricorder to face the right side up again and starts heading towards the OPS' location:: Self: That's more like it. I have to remind myself to give him a thorough examination when we get back to the Scimitar.
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
CSO: Do you recall anything of your comma? It was similar to Brenna's.
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
*XO*: Exeter Here, we got transporters online and ready to be used, sir!
CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
@CMO: watch it doctor I heard that.
CSO_Lt_Delar says:
::looks down and sighs:: CO: Nothing yet, Commander.
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
*FCO*: Can you transport Lt. Delar aboard?
CO_Cmdr_Janan says:
::nods:: CTO: Thank you, how many are on en-route to us?
SO_Ens_Pierce says:
@XO: I have some, but that would be maybe..10 meters.. Don't ask why i have it ::smiles, takes out his rope, ties the tricorder to it and lowers the tricorder down::
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
XO: Lemme check, sir :: tries to get a lock on the OPS::
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
CO: Three ships Cap'n.
CMO_Ens_Abmeraz says:
@::Continues walking in the OPS' direction as he increases his pace and elegantly evades the obstacles as he walks up the hill::
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
*XO*: Some Energy field is making it impossible, sir. But I think I can get a team close to her.
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
@*FCO*: Transport the CMO and CEO as close to her as you can.  Then beam up the rest of the way team, excluding the SO and myself.  And beam down climbing equipment for a 250-metre abseil, Ensign.
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
*XO*: Aye, Locking on to them and beaming them over in a few minutes, sir.
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
CTO: we got Climbing equipment???
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
FCO: Of course, It's in the storage locker in Transporter Room one.
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
*CMO/CEO*: Stand by for transport.  I'm having you beamed to Lt. Delar's location.
CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
@::stops and waits::
CMO_Ens_Abmeraz says:
@*XO*: Affirmative sir, we are standing by.
FCO_Ens_Exeter says:
::makes everything ready for the XO's orders:: *XO*: Thank you for shopping at the Scimitar and hope you enjoyed it, sir. ::and pushes the right buttons on his console::
XO_LtCmdr_Lessing says:
@::Smiles broadly::  *FCO*: Always a pleasure doing business with you.
Host Lt_Alina_Zin says:
ACTION - In a shimmer of blue light Blake Harris and Zoran Abmeraz appear at the edge of the valley that Brenna is in. They can see the clearing that she is in... but not the young Terran girl. The fiery lights in the sky continues as debris burns up in the atmosphere...the rain of fire is over, but the mystery still remains...
