Last week on the Seleya:

On the dimly lit world of Atra IV, the now dead planet has come to life, but not as it once was long ago and not in any way one may want.

Maor, Pandora and their team have overtaken Jarod and shorted out the entire area of electrical power using an EMP charge.  The have requested to be re-supplied and are about to open the unknown door to the room below the warehouse.

Heller's group arrived at their destination but not quite as planned.  As Heller safely made it across the compound two of his team, Mariluah and Derfel were captured and taken into the elegant house, led to a highly secured room full of electronic equipment.  Heller has made his way into the dark house and to the area he believes they are being held. The two officers are being questioned while T'Rae waits by the buggy with a few security personnel.  The surrounding area has a dampening field making standard Starfleet equipment unusable.

On the ship, the Captain Gomes has been enduring the waiting game as her people do their job.  Rose picked up a g image earlier and now on long range sensors is an incoming ship... their arrival time approximately an hour.

Captain's log, Stardate 11006.13. The away teams are proceeding their investigations. One is has started open confrontations and we lost contact with the other. I trust they will do all they can to complete the mission

Commander Maor's Log, SD: 11006.13: We've about to uncover the great mystery hidden behind the trap doors we've uncovered, hopefully whatever is in there will tell us more about the reason why we've arrived on the planet in the first place.

Lt. Cmdr Heller Duty log Stardate 11006.13.  Lt. Mariluah and Security Officer Derfel have been taken captive by a as of yet unidentified party although it's a safe bet it's the slavers they have been looking for.  I don't want to run the risk of loosing track of where they have our people so I've found a way into the building they were taking to and will look for an opportunity to free them.  He was hoping the CMO and his other security guard would follow protocol when they didn't report back on time.

<<<<<<<<<< Reunion of a Past X>>>>>>>>>>

 CO Capt Gomes says:
@::sits in her chair again:: CSO: Can you tell us anything more about the ship?
OPS Lt Pandora says:
::At the trap door, the gear installed, ready to remove the hatch::
SO Lt Mariluah says:
#::facing her captor. wondering exactly what he expects to get from them::
CSO Lt Rose says:
@ :: Looking for the 'g', she looks up::  CO:  Not yet captain, it is not cloaked, but sensors are having a problem identifying it.
CO Capt Gomes says:
@::nods:: CSO: Keep an eye on them. I doubt they are a match for us but they may jeopardize the away teams and the mission
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
::Nods at the direction of the OPS as he raises his phaser to signal his readiness:: OPS: Do it.
CTO LtCmdr Heller says:
#::In the house at the end of the hallway that seems to lead to where his people are being held.::
 Orale says:
% SO:  No profit?  On a world full of antiquity and surrounded in mystery?
CMO Ltjg TRae says:
#::Scans the house, through a pair of high powered optical glasses, the sensor enhancers on them no being much use through the dampening field::
OPS Lt Pandora says:
::Activates the pulley system, starting the hoisting operation:: CIV: Here we go... ::Takes a small handphaser from his belt as well, just to be sure::
 
ACTION:  As the hatch is pulled upon, a strong whiff of cleaning fluids almost overwhelms those standing nearby.

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
::Covers his face with a breathing mask:: OPS: Safe to breath?
SO Lt Mariluah says:
%::shrugs:: Orale: I suppose there are enough collectors in the Galaxy. Is that why you... ::looks at the weapons:: Orale: Is that why you invited us here? To trade?
OPS Lt Pandora says:
::Puts his phaser away again, and instead pulls out his tri-corder to take an air sample:: CIV: I'll know in a moment...
 
# Senery:  All around the compound, the CMO sees nothing but the remains of a past home of grandeur.

CMO Ltjg TRae says:
#:Taps her com badge: *OPS*: T'Rae to Seleya
CTO LtCmdr Heller says:
#::Doesn't want to move down hallway where he will be exposed and in the open so working through the floor plan in his head he believe he can work his way into that part of the house via the formal dining room and kitchen so moves to the first  door past the hallway and enters the dining room.::
 Orale says:
# :: His eyes cold::  SO:  You are trespassing.
OPS says:
CMO*: Seleya here, go ahead.
 Orale says:
# :: looks at the tactical officer slyly:: TO:  How many of you are there?
SO Lt Mariluah says:
#Orale: This planet is not claimed by anyone. So I really can't see how you can talk about trespassing. We had unusual readings and we were investigating. That is all
OPS Lt Pandora says:
::Looks at the tricorder as it takes its fair time to process, pressing his air mask against his face a bit firmer as some of the fumes are making it in through the cracks::
CMO Ltjg TRae says:
#*OPS* We have lost contact with Heller and his team on the other side of the dampening field, no visual contact at this point either.  Requesting permission to move into the dampening field and try and get a fix on him from the other side.
TO Derfel says:
# Orale:  Just the two of us but that's more than enough to take care of you if needed.
OPS Lt Pandora says:
CIV: I knew I recognized the smell... Looks like what we're smelling is ammonia, and quite a bit of it too... Better keep using these masks unless you want to damage your lungs...
SO Lt Mariluah says:
#::jumps in right after the TO:: Orale: Two of us here. Once the rest of the group discovers we are gone, they will come for us
 Orale says:
# SO:  First rights... consider it salvage rights.  We were here first.   If you picked up unusual readings you knew that someone was here.  :: his eyes narrow.::
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
::Nods:: OPS: Safe to go inside?
CTO LtCmdr Heller says:
#::Moves across the dining room and approaches the door on the other side, slowly easing the door open just a crack to see what is on the other side.::
OPS Lt Pandora says:
::Takes a step towards the hatch and scans it:: CIV: With a mask it's fine.. Let me just see if there's anyone or anything else down there that we should be careful with...
 Orale says:
# TO:  Just the two of you?  :: Points to a screen where the buggy can just be seen and one security officer roaming the general area.::
 Orale says:
#SO:  Rest of your group?  They will be joining us?
SO Lt Mariluah says:
#SO: If you want to claim this planet, there is procedure to follow. If you are in the process of issuing your application, we will respect that. The readings could have come from a number of sources. We were investigating them.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
::Nods and activates his phaser flashlight:: OPS: Think they were trying to cover up any blood evidence? ::Points his phaser at the direction of the darkness::
OPS says:
@::Turns to look at the captain:: CO: Captain, lieutenant TRae is requesting permission to move into the area Heller and Mariluah are in. She reports having lost contact with them both in communication and visually.

# Scenery:  On the other side of the dining room is what appears to be a large kitchen.

OPS Lt Pandora says:
CIV: It's a possibility... All clear, I don't read any lifesigns down there...
SO Lt Mariluah says:
#SO: As I said, they will look for us when we fail to report. Or you think Starfleet abandons its officers?
 Orale says:
# :: does not respond to the science officers question, but looks at the security officer.::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@aOPS: Put me through to her.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
::Checks something on his phaser:: OPS: Understood, let's go inside. ::Motions the two security officers to accompany them::
OPS says:
@::Nods and presses a few buttons:: *CMO*: Lieutenant, I am patching you through to the captain... ::Taps one more button, completing the transfer of communications::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@*CMO*: This is Captain Gomes. Do you have reason to believe mr Heller is in trouble?

ACTION:  The beam reveals a large underground compound, given they cannot see the side walls.  There is a ladder leading down.  There are also devices along the sides of the ladder for the unwary.

CTO LtCmdr Heller says:
#::Seeing the kitchen that he suspected would be through the door, that appears to be empty he moves quietly into the kitchen and scan around looking for another door that might lead to where his people are being held.::
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
OPS: How far deep is this passageway? ::Looks down::
Orale says:
# SO:  I think this is a very large planet.  :: leans back::  But why do you think I would want to do you any harm?  This is after all a simple operation.
CMO Ltjg TRae says:
@*CO*: I lost visual contact with Mariluah and Derfel first, then Heller as he entered the main building in the compound, no signs of life at all from this vantage point.
OPS Lt Pandora says:
::Nods, taking the tricorder in his left hand and taking out the phaser again:: CIV: I'm not sure... Tricorder reading is about 6 meters, so either that's the end, or that's where a dampening field kicks in again...
SO Lt Mariluah says:
#Orale: I hope you will forgive me for assuming you meant harm. That is the way my people interpret being pushed into a room by a fire weapon. But now that we are here, we can talk. What do you mean by simple operation?
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@*CMO*: Vey well. Proceed to find them. But if there is any sign of trouble, return and contact us. I will have a team standing by to beam down to your location.
 Orale says:
#SO:  You were lurking and this type of work is high competition.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
OPS: Another dampening field? The EMP charge we use was quite large for its size, I doubt it be done. Plus, I'd think you'd be able to detect another one. Anyway, no point arguing on it, let's proceed.  ::Arranges his gear:: I'll take point, wait for five seconds then follow and so on with the two of you. ::Glances at the direction of the security officers::: Here we go. ::Descends the ladder::
SO Lt Mariluah says:
#SO: All we want is information. All you want seems to be artifacts. I do not believe we are competing. We may even be able to trade.
CTO LtCmdr Heller says:
#::Checks the doors leading from the kitchen but doesn't find any sign of his people in the rooms directly from there.::
 
ACTION:  Maor feels a sharp pain as he grasps the ladder.

OPS Lt Pandora says:
::Waits a few seconds before moving down the ladder, only holding his tricorder now::
 Orale says:
# SO: Proceed... what do you think I have that you would want and vise-versa?
CMO Ltjg TRae says:
#*CO*: Understood, I will notify you the second before we enter the dampening field, if you have not heard back from me in 30 minutes that means there is trouble.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
::Quickly removes his hand, cursing loudly:: OPS: What the hell happened? ::Glances down at his hands::
 
ACTION:  Blood trickles down Maors hand and he gets a sudden feeling of light headedness.

OPS Lt Pandora says:
::Looks at Maor, then scans the ladder::
SO Lt Mariluah says:
#Orale: We are investigating the Atrians. Who they were and what became of them and their descendants. We would be interested in buying information about them
 CO Capt Gomes says:
#*CMO*: Acknowledged. and good luck. Seleya out
CMO Ltjg TRae says:
#TO: Stephens, I want you behind me, the minute you loose electronic lock on me notify the ship, and mark that spot, should you loose visual contact with me return to that spot and call for reinforcements.
 Orale says:
# SO:  And what would we know that you cannot learn?
TO Stephens says:
#CMO: Understood doctor.
OPS Lt Pandora says:
::Upon closer look, he sees the ladder isn't quite even:: CIV: Looks like there are some blades worked into this ladder.. Perhaps a safety precaution, preventing anyone who doesn't know about them from entering... They seem to be drenched in some sort of drug as well, possibly a sedative..
CTO LtCmdr Heller says:
#::Moves into one of the rooms off the kitchen that he believes will lead him to where his people are being held, figuring that if he can't find his way to them from there he will head back to the hallway and work his way down that.::
SO Lt Mariluah says:
#Orale: You have been here for longer than us collecting artifacts. Have you learned nothing about the Atrains?
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
::Moves to grab one of the walls:: OPS: I think something is wrong, Lieutenant. ::Nods at the OPS's explanation:: Where's the medical scanner?
OPS Lt Pandora says:
CIV: Uhm.. I think it's in the buggy, sir...
 Orale says:
# :: shrugs::  SO:  Beyond the basic, what do we care about who they are?
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
::Motions for one of the security officers to bring it over along with the med kit:: OPS: Can you figure a way to bypass this?
CMO Ltjg TRae says:
#::focuses her tricorder forward and to full power, checks to make sure the knife in her boot is free in its scabbard, and pulls the phaser from her belt, nodding to the TO, she begins to make her way as concealed as she can toward the dampening field::
OPS Lt Pandora says:
Outloud: Yeah.. Padded gloves should do the trick, and proper boots, which we already wear...
SO Lt Mariluah says:
#Orale: I thought you wanted to make a profit. To us information is precious. Perhaps if you let us take a look at the artifacts you have gathered so far, we can tell you if there is anything we can trade
TO Stephens says:
::crouches, keeping the doctor in visual contact and begins his decent, a few feet behind her::
OPS Lt Pandora says:
::Looks as the tricorder suddenly beeps:: CIV: Interesting....
CTO LtCmdr Heller says:
#::Moves to the next door and holds position listening carefully for any sounds or voices from the other side.::
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
::Nods:: OPS: It's starting to get worse. ::Shakes his head:: Feeling feels almost familiar.
Orale says:
# SO:  We do not keep the artifacts here... there is a warehouse better build for that.
TO Stephens says:
@ ::His tricorder beeps at him as the life signs of the doctor wink out as she enters the dampening field.  He taps his com badge and alerts the Seleya they are entering the field::
SO Lt Mariluah says:
#Orale: Oh, I see you are very organized. So ... what is this house for then? It looks well kept
TO Stephens says:
 ::Fires his phaser to scorch a big X in the surrounding rock, to mark the point of no return.::
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
::Nods his gratitude as the security officers brings over the med-kit:: OPS: Feeling feels almost like the drug they use on Orion to control their slaves. ::Removes a hypo from the kit and begins to configure it::
 
# ACTION:  The CMO and Stephens see nothing as they approach.  On the video screens near the SO and TO they can be seen approaching the house.  The three men with them say nothing.

OPS Lt Pandora says:
CIV: My tricorder seems to agree...
SO Lt Mariluah says:
#::gulps glancing at the screen::
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
::Injects the hypo to his own neck:: OPS: Let's see if my body agrees as well.
 Orale says:
# :: his face turned slightly toward the screen::  SO:  Luxury... I always wanted such a home... and this one comes free.
CMO Ltjg TRae says:
#Stops behind a larger boulder on the approach and checks the surrounding are with her field glasses, trying the sensor enhancements for good measure::
OPS Lt Pandora says:
CIV: If this is an orion drug though, that would make this entire operation something being run by the Orion Syndicate...
SO Lt Mariluah says:
#Orale: Free? This house is thousands of years old in a desolate planet. I can only imagine the maintenance it needs. You must have many people working for you. I am sure those are not free
 
ACTION:  The antidote badly stings, but after a few moments, Maor feels control return to him.

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
OPS: Not necessarily, Orions are known to be valuable mercenaries too.
CTO LtCmdr Heller says:
#::Finding nothing through that door gives up trying to find a way from this area and moves back to the hallway to decide where to go from there.::
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
OPS: I think it's over, can you confirm? 
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@CSO: Anything more on the approaching ship?
OPS Lt Pandora says:
CIV: Perhaps, but would a mercenary go through the trouble of securing a warehouse's secret basement against intruders? That seems rather far fetched to me. Besides, mercenaries would probably have many more suitable hideouts on this planet than this basement...
OPS Lt Pandora says:
::Takes the medical tricorder from the security officer and scans Maor:: CIV: Let's hope so..
CSO Lt Rose says:
@CO:  Yes and no.  Sensors suggest it is Klingon bird of Prey, but I cannot pick up anything specific beyond that.  I am not reading its registry.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
OPS: Maybe they build this warehouse after they found the entrance to this carven. ::Hands the OPS a pair of gloves:: 
CMO Ltjg TRae says:
#::Utters a little known klingon curse, as the sensor enhancements on her field glasses fail::
CMO Ltjg TRae says:
#::Signals for the TO to test fire his weapon, now that he is inside the field::
OPS Lt Pandora says:
::Figures it better not to point out the apparent age of the building, but instead just takes the gloves and puts them on::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@CSO: It might be a stolen and modified bird of prey.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
OPS: Before we go down there, can you detect any other nasty surprises I should know about?
CTO LtCmdr Heller says:
#::Arrives at end of the main hallway and stops to listen and decide where to go from there::
TO Stephens says:
#::Takes aim at a large boulder a few yards off, and fires his phaser::
CSO Lt Rose says:
@ CO:  That would make sense and explain my odd sensor readings.  Nor have I found that g energy surge.
TO Stephens says:
#::Shakes his head to the doctor and stows his phaser, pulling instead a rather large bowie knife from his belt::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@CSO: Would it help to send a probe?
CSO Lt Rose says:
@ CO:  They would pick it up.
OPS Lt Pandora says:
CIV: I can check, but I can't guarantee anything...
CMO Ltjg TRae says:
#::Stows her own phaser, and pulls the Kilingon blade from her boot, while not as large as Stephens she knows it is equally as deadly::
 Orale says:
# :: shrugs his shoulders::  SO:  It is actually remarkably preserved.  Shall we invite your friends to join us?
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@CSO: Do you think they are not yet aware of our presence?
SO Lt Mariluah says:
#Orale: I am not sure what that would accomplish. What do you want from us?
OPS Lt Pandora says:
::Scans the tunnel below to see if there are any other hazards::
CSO Lt Rose says:
@ :: grimaces::  CO:  Given the Orion ship and I doubt this is coincidence... probably.
CMO Ltjg TRae says:
#Begins to debate sending the TO back to contact the ship, and wonders if even her enhanced subspace transmitter would break through this interference::
 
Scenery:  There is a short corridor that has three main doors with coded locking mechanisms that are dark.

CTO LtCmdr Heller says:
#::Decides once again to forgo going down the hallways and decides to see if he can find another around via the upstairs, and moves to the stairs and very carefully tests the first couple stairs to see if they creak under his weight.::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@CSO: Well, then I don't see any problem in them finding our probe. If you think that will allow us to decipher this g reading, then send it.
CSO Lt Rose says:
@ :: nods and turns around to contact engineering to prepare a probe::
CTO LtCmdr Heller says:
#::The stairs appear to be in good condition so Max quickly and quietly works his way to the top of the stairs and holds there to see if anyone heard him.::
