Last time on the Seleya:

Time appears to be running out.  There are four power sources under the ocean.  The three smaller ones have a different energy signal.  As the Seleya sends down two away teams to deal with two potential threats, the captain sends the Pegasus, Phoenix and Seleya into geosynchronous orbit to keep a close eye on three energy signals directed at major cities.   At this point she can only hope the planet survives whatever comes next.

The captain had learned about the general whereabouts of the original transport ships the Romans had used.  For now, they are safely in the hands of the rebels and a distance away behind one of the moons until they can be of use in returning the colonists.

In the artic desert of this world the first officer continues to monitor the teams  and surrounding area for any surprise attack while Trigger had lead a team inside the structure.  There, he disarmed the various warning systems and found a small group of workers with only one security officer.  Given the danger of the compound, that is unusual.  Taking captive one of the engineers, they are about to enter the control room.

Maor's and his team took an underwater shuttle to their goal and easily docked with the massive structure.  The vessel appears capable of holding and supporting thousands; whether it was meant for underwater or space is unknown, but it appears easily able to withstand the pressures of the ocean.  While the vessels atmosphere is comparable to what most of them are used to, they have found no evidence of life signs.

As the team entered the large vessel, there were various thoughts on the experience.  For some it was an adventure, for others there was fear to be at such a depth beneath the massive weight of water and for at least Maor, his fear is realized at the size and complexity of what they had walked into.  For most it was an adventure of discovery and curiosity of what they had come into and who had built it.  The language is not familiar to Ecchumati telling her she was experiencing something new.

There are several sources of energy which would be normal given the size of the vessel.  OPS located a map within the receiving area they had stepped into marking various sections in color.  Areas in yellow corresponded with the energy readings being picked up.

There is no sign of the ship having been abandoned hastily; the area they are in is neat and clean.  The air is as fresh as being on a planet unpopulated by pollution.  Locating what appears to be the central command area, they head for that.

Captain's log, Stardate 10907.19. The teams I sent to the planet are making progress while we are monitoring the situation in the planet from orbit. The end is near, one way or another

 CO Capt Gomes says:
::at her chair on the bridge, taking a look at telemetry coming from the planet::
SO Lt Rose says:
# :: As they begin their trek through the underwater vessel, she pauses, mesmerized by the ocean outside the large windows of the outer hull.
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
@::following Bret into the control room with his phaser pointed at his back::
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# OPS: Contact the Captain, inform her we've arrived at the complex and are en route to one of the control centers to assess the situation. ::Turns his attention to the direction of the SO:: SO: Anything on the sensors to indicate we're not alone here?
 CO Capt Gomes says:
::brings up the position of both away teams and checks their status::
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
#CIV: Yes Sir. ::turns to one side and taps her badge:: *CO*: Ecchumati to Gomes
SO Lt Rose says:
# :: Pulled back to where she is, she sighs and turns around.::  CIV:  Nothing yet.  But... I did find an oddity... barely noticed.  On the map Ecchumati used, there was an odd color.  That odd color is giving off a very... I do mean very faint energy reading.  I would not have noticed it had she not pointed it out.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
::taps her badge::*OPS*: Gomes here, go ahead.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# SO: Odd color? On the legend?  ::Considers something:: How far away is it from where we're heading to?

@ ACTION:  As the CSec's team enters behind Bret, three men turn around questioningly only to pause at the look on their fellow workers face.

OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
*CO*: We've arrived at the complex and are headed to a control center to assess the situation.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
*OPS*: Acknowledged. Did you find anything of note yet?
SO Lt Rose says:
# CIV:  Well, it was odd as it was just a spec of color different from the rest.  It is in the basic direction of what OPS was thinking might be the command center... being in the center and all :: smiles::
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
@::shows his phaser to the other men pointed at Bret then motions for the rest of the team to secure them::
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
#*CO*: Only a map so far, ma’am, it seems this place is huge.
 
@ ACTION: The workers give no resistance as the security team rounds them up.

CSEC Lt Trigger says:
@Bret: Shut it down. ::nudges at him with the phaser::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
*OPS*: very well. I am glad to here you are making progress but remember, time is of the essence. Keep up the good work.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# SO: Any indications the internal sensors or whatever equivalent this place has is tracking us?
 Bret says:
@ :: Takes a deep breath::  CSec:  If I simply shut it down, it will trigger an automatic override, destroying the entire compound and everything for kilometers around... this area would be unusable for centuries.
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
# *OPS*: Acknowledged. Away team out. ::turns to the CIV:: CIV: Captain Gomes is now informed of our situation.
SO Lt Rose says:
# CIV:  While it is possible, I have not seen any evidence.  That does not mean it is not happening.  ::tugs an ear lightly::  You think we are being watched?  :: Looks around surreptitiously::
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
@Bret: Then bypass the override.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
::turns back to the view screen and asks the duty OPS to display the area directly above all 4 energy spikes::
 Bret says:
@ CSec:  I don't know how.  None of us do.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# OPS: Thank you, Lieutenant. ::Nods at the SO's question:: SO, OPS: We are working under the assumptions that we're not alone here, after all, what are the odds that a place this big can be entirely self sustainable?
SO Lt Rose says:
# :: quietly::  CIV:  It is possible, but it would be a waste of energy... unless that energy is self sustaining.
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
# CIV/SO: Water has been used to produce energy, which means potentially this complex literally sits in its element.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# OPS: Consider what we know, do we have any species in our databases that are able to mask their signal so they won't be detectable by the naked eye or by our sensors? A species that can manage a technology feat such as this one?
 CSEC Lt Trigger says:
@::Pushes Bret back towards the rest of the workers and the security team then pulls out a PADD and tricorder from the pouch on his belt:: *CO*: Trigger to the Seleya, please respond.
 
ACTION:  On the ships view screen, a map of the planet appears, marked by one large and three smaller points, located in the planets major ocean.
 
CO Capt Gomes says:
Self: What are you hiding?
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
# CIV: Well, it seems far beyond the capabilities of the Magna Romans. Romulans use cloaking devices, as do Klingons and even the JemHadar when they were here. Personal ones.
SO Lt Rose says:
#OPS:  True... I wish we had more information about where this was found.  :: turns to Maor::
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# SO: In theory would it be possible to erect forcefields around the complex and separate it from the water it so desperately needs?
SO Lt Rose says:
CIV:  There are a couple that can mask their biosigns and their mental thoughts... but I am not familiar with them other then that ability.  They are not Federation.  What about a simple signal blocker?  Do those not exist?
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
# CIV/SO: Assuming the water is indeed its source of energy.
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
@::taps his badge again:: *CO*: Seleya please respond.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
*CSec*: Gomes here
SO Lt Rose says:
# OPS: Not to say that it is not, but there is the unusual energy reading... though, the more my brain works with it, there is some familiarity to it... I just haven't quite figured out what.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# OPS: Only other alternative is a cold fusion reactor or even antimatter but how did a thing this big get here? And who supplies parts for it when something needs replacing and can't be reproduced locally?
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# SO: Can you determine how long this complex has been here?
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
# CIV/SO: Well it'd have to have been built before being placed underwater. If they cloaked it to get here undetected... ::shakes her head:: I think the only way we'll get answers will be to investigate. I don't recognize the language on the screen ::gestures to it:: so I'd say it's a new species altogether.
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
@*CO*: Captain we're in the control room now, Apparently there's some sort of failsafe that will self destruct the facility if it's shut down so I'm going to try and do it manually.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
#  OPS: Or made to appear as one.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
*CSec*: Acknowledged. Is there anything we can send you to help?
SO Lt Rose says:
# CIV/OPS:  I remember Thaddeus saying it was brought here... so it was not exactly a secret.
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
#CIV/SO: Only other thing I can think of is that it is indeed empty. Imagine it came here millenia ago from an ancient species - that would explain the unknown writing - but something went wrong and they died out. A virus or something... then Marcus or someone finds it centuries later and exploits the technology to expand their empire.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# OPS, SO: I wish to conduct an experiment. Can you determine what the walls are made from?
SO Lt Rose says:
#CIV:  As how long... I am not sure why, but the tricorder is having difficulty estimating any ages.
SO Lt Rose says:
#OPS:  That might explain how they got their hands on it.
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
@*CO*: Nothing I can think of, I'll keep you posted. Trigger out.
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
# ::nods:: CIV/SO: I suggest we set up an interface with this ship and the Seleya. They can run data through a translator faster than us and may provide the answers. Even if we get to the command center, we won't understand much.
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
@::opens the panel under the control console and starts scanning with his tricorder::
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
<this complex>
 CO Capt Gomes says:
::nods silently but is interupted by the duty SO::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
<SO Alonso>CO: The computer has figured out the source of the main energy spike ... where the away team is at.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
SO Alonso: Go on
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
# CIV/SO: What are the odds this is an organic life-form? Like Farpoint station was.
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
@::makes some notes and calculations on the PADD::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
<SO Alonso>CO: Its compatible in every respect to a singularity, or maybe multiple ones
SO Lt Rose says:
# :: Scans the walls::  CIV:  It is a mixture of various compounds and polymers... some of them I would not have thought possible to combine.  :: slowly shakes her head::  I am not finding any organic material in it.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
SO Alonso: Are they endangering the away team?
 CO Capt Gomes says:
<SO Alonso>CO: I am not sure, but I wouldn't get too close
 CO Capt Gomes says:
::nods and taps her badge:: *OPS*: Gomes to Acchumati
 CO Capt Gomes says:
<Ecchumati?
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
*CO*: Go ahead Captain.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# SO: What will happen if we strike against one of the walls and cause a leak in it? If our theory that this complex is self sustainable we might get information from what will happen next.
Bret is now known as NightWind.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
<sustainable is correct we might>
 CO Capt Gomes says:
*OPS*: There is new data from the probe's telemetry. Its likely the power source of that vessel is at least one singularity. Be very carefull
SO Lt Rose says:
# CIV: Ummm... there would probably be a breach and like any good ship... at least I hope, some form of shielding would appear to protect it until it can be repaired... just like a bulkhead on a ship.  :: Looks a bit worried.::  Ummm... remember, we are underwater...
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# ::Nods at the OPS's direction:: OPS: Once we get to the control center.
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
@::starts working on reconfiguring the circutry under the console in an attempt to bypass the overriding failsafes::
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
*CO*: Aye maam. When we get to the command center we'd like to establish a link with the Seleya's Universal translator... hopefully it'll help us get some answers.
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
<#>
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
# CIV: Seleya reports they detect a singularity that is powering this complex. There could be more.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
*OPS*: Good idea. We will be ready.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
<add "Seleya out">
SO Lt Rose says:
# :: suddenly snaps her fingers::  OPS:  That is why it was slightly familar.  They must have done something more with it.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
<SO Alonso>CO: We also have more data on the weapons
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# SO: Where's your sense of adventure, Lieutenant? Chances are the leak will be fixed quickly enough, question is how and by who. ::Nods at the OPS:: OPS: Understood. ::Raises an eyebrow at the SO's remark:: SO: They?
SO Lt Rose says:
# CIV:  Being crushed by water is not part of my idea of adventure.  I prefere my experiments a bir more controlled, thank you.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
::really dislikes this officer's inability to finish a point before being asked:: Alonso: Yes?
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
# ::turns to the SO:: SO: Huh?
SO Lt Rose says:
#CIV:  The builders... whoever they are.  I hope we get to meet them.
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
@::switches a few newer looking isolinear chips and then stands up to access the console::
SO Lt Rose says:
# OPS:  The energy signature you just mentioned.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# SO: How far are we?
 CO Capt Gomes says:
<SO Alonso>CO: They appear to be drawing energy from the planet itself, they are using it to produce large ammounts of antimatter. If released in the cities ...
 CO Capt Gomes says:
::thats one idea sentence he doesn't need to finish:: Alonso: How much damage and how long?
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
# CIV/SO: The command center is this-a-way. ::gestures with her open tricorder having downloaded the map onto it::
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
@::taps at the console and attempts to access the failsafe device controllers directly::
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# OPS, SO, Guards: Right. Let's pick up our pace. ::Begins moving faster toward the general direction the OPS pointed at::
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
# ::stops at a large door:: CIV/SO: The command center.
SO Lt Rose says:
# :: Nods and follows::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
<SO Alonso>CO: In six hours they will reach critical mass and if deployed ... ::pauses for a momet:: CO: The whole planet will be destroied
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
# ::draws her phaser, nod to them to be ready to open, and pushes the big button::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
::nods at the SO without another word::
 NightWind says:
@ ACTION:  Step by step, the CSec hears a click as things seem to go into place.  But suddenly a warning alarm goes off with a computer voice giving an evacuation countdown of 3 minutes.
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
<delete my last line>
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
@::swings round to the security team:: Team leader: Get them out... NOW! If I'm not out in 3 minutes leave without me.
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
@<Strike Team Leader>: CSec: But sir...
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# All: Standby. ::Glances back:: OPS, SO: Stand back, whatever happens if you're more crucial to the mission than I am. ::Turns his attention back to the direction of the door:: Open it. ::Draws his phaser and motions the other two guards to take stance near him::
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
<-if>
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
# ::stands back::
 CO Capt Gomes whispers to NightWind:
in 6 hours, with 3 ships seems enough. lets try then :)
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
@Team Leader: NOW Derrick! That's and order! ::swings back round to the console and taps at it furiously trying to abort the destruct sequence::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
Alonso: Are our tractor beams able to bring them to orbit?
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
@<Strike Team Leader> CSec: Aye sir. ::rounds up the strike team and the prisoners and hustles them out of the facility the way they came in::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
<SO Alonso>CO: Barely. But if we use the Pegasus and the Phoenix ...
OPS LtJG Ecchumati whispers to NightWind:
Yeah its just me. Let's leave it at that then.
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
@::routes the commands through different subroutines in the computer's system::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
::turns an annoyed face at him::
 NightWind says:
# ACTION:  As the door opens, a well structured command center is revieled, empty of any life signs.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# SO: Can you detect anything ile?
 NightWind says:
@ ACTION:  The security team and workers move quickly through the compound, a few more workers joining their group from other door ways.  A look of fear is mirrored on the workers faces.
 CO Capt Gomes whispers to NightWind:
I am not sure what to do here:
 CO Capt Gomes whispers to NightWind:
CIV Cmdr Maor whispers to CO Capt Gomes:
so can you say something or should I leave?
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
@::fingers fly across the console as he attempts to locate and disable the self destruct charges directly::
SO Lt Rose says:
# :: slowly shakes her head::  CIV:  Nothing... but everything seems to be in order... :: starts to move further into the room.::
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# OPS: After you, Lieutenant. 
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
#::steps into the room:: CIV: Thank you. I'll see if I can establish a link with the Seleya.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
<SO Alonso>CO: The structure has such a large energy build up that any disturbance will cause it to detonate. But if we use all three tractor beams we may be able to bring it up safely
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# Guard: Keep watch outside the door, try to keep the door open at all times. ::Makes his way inside the room with the other guards:: SO, OPS: Let's hope it'll be this easy.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
Alonso: Well, we have six hours to do it ::taps the side of her chair::
 NightWind says:
@ ACTION:  Suddenly the computer goes quiet.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# ::Sighs loudly:: All: I had to say it. ::Turns to the SO:: SO: What happened?
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
#::starts looking at a console, figuring out little pieces of it:: Aloud: This must be the sensors... so this... yes... ::taps her badge:: *CO*: Ecchumati to Gomes, attempting link now.
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
@::stops tapping and looks up as everything goes silent::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
::contacts the pegasus and the Phoeniox to abandon their positions and meet the Seleya at her position.::
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
<delete my line>
 CO Capt Gomes says:
*OPS*: Acknowledged. ::nods to the duty OPS to do what he can::
CIV Cmdr Idrani (~CIV Cmdr @odn-8CBE3BF4.ip.primehome.com) has joined the conversation.
CIV Cmdr Idrani (~CIV Cmdr @odn-8CBE3BF4.ip.primehome.com) has left the conversation.
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
@::looks at the console to see what happened::
 NightWind says:
@ ACTION:  The boards before the CSec, go from red to green.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
::nods again at the duty OPS:: *OPS*: The link is established
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
#::starts an upload:: *CO*: I'll upload everything we can get.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
<SO Alonso>CO: The other ships are in position
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
@*CO*: Trigger to Gomes. ::The relief clearly audible in his voice::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
*OPS*: we'll keep you informed of what the computer translates
SO Lt Rose says:
# :: Walking around the room, she pauses at a door and stands there.::  hmmm.. CIV:  I think this is where OPS found the small dot of color.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
*CSec*: Gomes here. you sounds like you have just been through a hard time. What is your status?
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# SO, OPS: The moment we get a translation I want you two to work on getting us in the system using the Seleya's computing resources. ::Turns around at the SO's words:: SO: Any signs on the door? 
 CO Capt Gomes says:
Alonso: Engage tractor beams
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
@::secures the console and deactivates it before packing up his gear and heading back to the shuttle:: *CO*: The nuclear threat on Magna Roma has been neutralised, we're on our way back now.
SO Lt Rose says:
# CIV: Nothing I can read...  :: motions to the symbols on the door and turns to look at him.::
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# SO: Can you scan through the door?
 CO Capt Gomes says:
::smiles::*CSec*: Good job Mr Trigger! That is one less problem to worry about. Return as soon as possible, I could use your expertise here
SO Lt Rose says:
# CIV:  That small bit of energy... kind of like a tiny leak.
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
@::reaches the shuttle and instructs the strike team to unload the forcefield emitter:: *CO*: We'll be back shortly, we're just erecting a forcefield to deny access to the facility.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# SO: Work on gaining access to the complex systems, we'll worry about things one step at a time.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
*CSec*: Understood. Seleya out
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
@::Ensures the emitter is in position and activates the timer before loading everyone into the shuttle and lifting off::
SO Lt Rose says:
# :: Nods and moves to join Ecchumati::  OPS:  Anything?
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# ::Grabs his own tricorder and scans the unfamiliar reading on the walll, running it through the Seleya's universal translator::
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
# SO/CIV: This'll take some time.
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
@::Flies the shuttle quickly back into orbit:: *CO*: Seleya this is Lieutenant Trigger requesting immediate docking clearance.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
*CSec: Permission granted ::nods at the duty OPS to lower shields and open bay doors::
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
@*CO*: Acknowledged Captain. ::carefully pilots the shuttle into the shuttle bay::
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# ::Attempts to find a way to get the door opened::
CIV Cmdr Maor whispers to NightWind:
a few tries on what?
OPS LtJG Ecchumati whispers to NightWind:
so I can read it in my language now?
 NightWind says:
ACTION:  The shuttle lands gently.  The first officer heads off followed by the others.
CIV Cmdr Maor whispers to NightWind:
he's trying to get the door opene
CIV Cmdr Maor whispers to NightWind:
d
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
#SO: I'll tell you as soon as I... yes! CIV/SO: Got it! I have the key.
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
::powers down the shuttle and heads for the nearest turbolift::
SO Lt Rose says:
# :: Moves closer::  OPS:  What have you found?
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
::rides the turbolift to the bridge and steps out:: CO: What do you need Cap'n? ::heads to tactical::
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
# SO/CIV: I have access to the database. ::searches for information on the complex's origins::
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# OPS: See if you can determine the complex purpose.
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
#::nods as she continues::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
CSec: Three of the energy spikes from the planet are weapons building up energy to attack. Together they could destroy the whole planet. I have the Pegasus and the Phoenix tractoring them up. But we have to be very carefull not to detonate them ... and we have to send them away from the planet
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
::taps at his console:: CO: If we position the three ships so that they're at 33.3 degrees to a central point on the weapon, not only would our pulling power be increased but once the weapons are clear of the atmosphere we should be able to gather enough momentum to slingshot them into open space.
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
::brings up a simulation on the main screen::
 NightWind says:
# ACTION:  Their is a click and the door before Maor swishes open.  The smell of food wafts out.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
CSec: That sounds right, but you will have to coordinate all three tractor beams very carefully ::observes the viewscreen:: CSec: But its our best chance. do it
OPS LtJG Ecchumati whispers to NightWind:
where's their world and why are the ships here?!?!
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
::contacts the Pegasus and Phoenix to give them new positioning coordinates::
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# SO, OPS: What the hell? ::Takes a step forward, continuing to scan::
SO Lt Rose says:
# :: Turns around at Maor's voice::
NightWind is now known as Emperor Magnus.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# SO: Is there actually food in there, Lieutenant? 
 CO Capt Gomes says:
CSec: I forgot to tell you, we have 6 hours before the weapons detonate
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
#CIV/SO: Some information... this ship is from a system close to here. Their star was expanding that they built this ship. Something went wrong. They put themselves into suspension on their world until the ship would be ready.
SO Lt Rose says:
# ::Quietly::  CIV:  I am reading a life sign.
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
CO: I just beat a three minute timer on a nuclear self destruct sequence, I don't think a six hour window to dispose of these weapons is going to phase me.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# SO: In our database?
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
#CIV/SO: But perhaps the Romans found the ships and brought them here meaning that the original builders are still in suspension, if their world is not destroyed. Whoever continued construction when they were in suspension though, I don't know.
SO Lt Rose says:
# :: Motions to the open door.::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
CSec: I hope you are right.
SO Lt Rose says:
# :: Looks at Ecchumati::
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
# SO/CIV: That's what I have so far.
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
::monitros the tractor beams and their anchor points on the first weapon::
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# OPS: You honestly think the Romans are capable off a feat such as this?
SO Lt Rose says:
# OPS:  So another mystery... I wonder if we could go find them.
SO Lt Rose says:
:# :: frowns as she ponders the question::  CIV:  Humanoid... :: Looks up::  Roman.
SO Lt Rose says:
#CIV:  They could have brought the ship back...
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
# CIV: I believe they could have stolen it.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# ::Raises an eyebrow:: SO: A Roman? In here? ::Considers:: We're going in. ::Enters the room::
 Emperor Magnus says:
ACTION:  The XO interegates the workers and guard.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
<of a feat>
 Emperor Magnus says:
Scenery:  Surrounded by controls, is an elegant table, laddened with food of all variety.  There is another door leading to another room.
 Emperor Magnus says:
<#>
 Emperor Magnus says:
# ACTION:  The security officers follow Maor.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# SO, OPS: The food appears to be fresh, how long has this life form existed here? ::Scans the second door::
SO Lt Rose says:
# CIV:  This was not long ago.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
::takes her attention from the tractor beams for a moment and turns to the telemetry comming from the away team::
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
#::follows::
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# ::Opens the door:: SO, OPS: I believe we've found our sleeping beauty. ::Gestures at the direction of the sleeping man:: Can you confirm he's only sleeping?
FCO Cmdr Jackson (~tim.schol@odn-9819A8F4.adsl.versatel.nl) has joined the conversation.
SO Lt Rose says:
# CIV: Yes...
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# ::Nods:: Guard: Wake him up.
 Emperor Magnus says:
:: At the sounds of voices, he rolls over and sits up, the sheet falling away::
 Emperor Magnus says:
<#>
 Emperor Magnus says:
# :: frowns and holds up a trigger mechanism in his hand::  All:  I would not come much closer if I were you.
SO Lt Rose says:
# :: Peeks into the room and then backs out.  Quietly::  OPS:  Think you could put something together to block that signal?
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# ::Frowns and takes a step back:: Man: We mean you no harm, we're Representatives of the United Federation of Planets. We've come to determine this complex purpose.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
<representatives>
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
# SO: Possibly. ::reconfigures her tricorder and tries to block the signal::
 Emperor Magnus says:
# :: Sits up straighter::  CIV:  I am Emperor Magnus.   And this complex as you call it, is mine.
SO Lt Rose says:
# OPS:  If that is enough... and if he is behind this all... :: lifts a brow::
SO Lt Rose says:
# :: nods toward the door::  OPS:  Your puppet behind a puppet?
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# Emperor: My name is Commander Maor,  this is Lieutenant Ecchumati and that is Lieutenant Rose. We've received reports about this complex being using the target the city using whatever offensive capabilities it may have.
OPS LtJG Ecchumati says:
#SO: Oh, not mine. ::smiles::
OPS LtJG Ecchumati whispers to Emperor Magnus:
ah yes
 Emperor Magnus says:
# CIV:  If my subjects disobey, there is a price to pay.  :: smiles::  They believe they are in charge... but not anymore.   It is as it should be.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# Emperor: That's what I suspected. ::Nods slowly:: Have you heard of us?
SO Lt Rose says:
# :: Moves slightly closer to Maor and quietly informs him that OPS has the signal blocked.::
OPS LtJG Ecchumati whispers to Emperor Magnus:
Before you close, don't forget I want a word with you and Lilia please.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# ::Nods a the SO's words::
 Emperor Magnus says:
# CIV:  But of course... you are the ones that allowed for all this to happen... :: waves his hand with the trigger mechanism around the general room.::  Wonderful, is it not?
SO Lt Rose says:
# :: Steps back with OPS, more interested in the vessel as everything else is in hand.  So strange... one man... well, many in the long run, but still..::
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# ::Nods slowly:: Emperor: If that is indeed the case, wouldn't you think it'd be a show of respect in your part to allow us to end it all ? ::Eyes the trigger::
 Emperor Magnus says:
# CIV:  End it all?  Oh, I need no help in that.  :: stares coldly::  Very easily.  If you come any closer, well... there will be nothing to worry about and I can start everything over again.
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
CO: The weapons will be in orbit in a couple of minutes.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# Emperor: Fine, we won't come any closer. Why don't you come closer to us then?
 Emperor Magnus says:
# CIV:  I am ruler here.  I do nothing I do not want to.  You, may leave.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
CSec: Good. Make sure there is enough distance between them in the planet so they won't cause any damage
SO Lt Rose says:
# :: Listens as OPS informs the captain of what is going on and they have the trigger mechanism blocked::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
::receives the report from the planet::
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# ::Considers something:: All: This is getting tying. Stun him. ::Turns around and makes his way outside the room::
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
<tiring>
 CO Capt Gomes says:
CSec: The weapons were under the control of the Roman Emperor. The away team believes they blocked him from triggering them but I prefer to keep them away, just in case
 Emperor Magnus says:
# ACTION:  As one of the security officers aims to fire, the emperor taps the trigger mechanism.  Nothing happens... other then the Emperor slumps back, stunned.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# OPS: See if he's okay, Lieutenant. ::Turns to the SO:: SO: Can we safely assume this facility is now harmless without his trigger?
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
CO: The away team will have to return en-route... with one ship to each weapon we're limited to full impulse anyway.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
CSec: They have a shuttle. It shouldn't be a problem
SO Lt Rose says:
# CIV:  If he was the only one, which appears to be so... most odd.  Then yes.  I am wondering if your friends were at work here as well as else where.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
# ::Nods:: SO: Contact the Seleya, report the facility is secured.
SO Lt Rose says:
# CIV:  Aye, sir...
CSEC Lt Trigger says:
::instructs the FCO and coordinates with the other ships to pull the weapons in 3 different directions away from the planet at full impulse::

ACTION:  Slowly and carefully the weapons are taken away from Roma Magna.  Between the two groups, their world is safe for now... at least from this problem.
