Last time on the Seleya:

As the Federation works on cleaning up the mess the Vroa left behind, one of those tasks was to find the missing in action.  A couple of ships have gone missing.  The Seleya was sent to find the USS Nevsky which was last seen in the Seginus system.

As the Federation works on cleaning up the mess the Vroa left behind, one of those tasks was to find the missing in action.  A couple of ships have gone missing.  The Seleya was sent to find the USS Nevsky which was last seen in the Seginus system.

On the planet below, two federation shuttles were located.  The captain has ordered an away team down in the hopes of finding survivors.  Commander Hiles, leading the team consisting of only two others, Lt Cmdr Dylan and Lt. Rose, are currently in the process of beaming down...

Captain's log, Stardate 11308.11. It seems the Nevsky crashed on the planet. I sent an away team to investigate. We will do what we can to preserve the prime directive. But it is quite likely it has already been broken.

<<<<<<<<< Not to be forgotten... II>>>>>>>>>>

ACTION:  As the transporter releases the away team they feel a burning sensation along their skin followed by a sense of extreme disorientation.  Slowly it passes and they realize they are lying on cold ground.  Upon opening their eyes, they will see the stars of an alien world.  And that they are totally alone.  No one is about, not even their own.  And all is silent.

OPS LtCmdr Pandora says:
@::Takes a moment to get up after transport is complete, taking in the surround area and noting the smells around them::
CO Capt Gomes says:
::Sitting in her chair, waiting for news from the away team::
SO Lt Rose says:
@::As full consciousness becomes her, she feels... wet... and cold... and... she jumps up as something brushes against her leg.::
CNS Ens Baro says:
::Baro had been absent for a long time. Maybe the counselor himself was in counselling. Who knows. Maybe mister Newstein knows. Now he was back. Was he the same person as before or were things going to change? For now he left the turbolift and entered the bridge, just to see what was going on.::
XO Cmdr Maor says:
::On the bridge, going over a few reports::
OPS LtCmdr Pandora says:
@::Sniffs, trying to see what direction the smell might be coming from:: SO: You smell that?
CO Capt Gomes says:
XO: Keep an open channel to the away team. Something doesn't add up here and I don't want it to blow in our faces. ::hears the turbo lift door open and turns arround to the counselor::
CO Capt Gomes says:
CNS: Ah Mr. Baro, glad you finally joined us. I trust your time away was ... fruitful.
SO Lt Rose says:
@::Looks around with a frown to find she was standing in a stream with glowing creatures swimming by.  According to her mother, being part fish herself, that did not bother her.  But the glowing did given the radiation on this world.::
XO Cmdr Maor says:
::Nods at the direction of the Captain, not that she was even looking at his direction::
SO Lt Rose says:
@::Jumping out with a shudder, she looks around for the others.  And frowns.::  OPS/CTO:  Commanders?
SO Lt Rose says:
@::No shuttles either::
CNS Ens Baro says:
::Although he had been away for quite some time, his accent was still the same:: CO: My dear captain, my sincere apologies for me being away. I had things to do. Certain things. And it was, as you say, fruitful.
CO Capt Gomes says:
::Smiles at Baro's word, having forgotten how he spoke:: CNS: Excellent. Now do join us. ::Points at the counselor's chair:: CNS: Perhaps you can help us make sense of this conundrum.
CNS Ens Baro says:
::Looks at the appointed chair:: Self: Oh right, chair. I do have one here. ::Nods to the CO::
OPS LtCmdr Pandora says:
@::Looks around, noticing there is nobody else with him:: Self: Strange..
SO Lt Rose says:
@::In the silence she reaches down for her tricorder, noticing it is dripping wet.  Which should not be a problem... normally....::
OPS LtCmdr Pandora says:
@::Takes his tricorder out of his supplies pack and starts scanning the surrounding area, trying to get a fix on his current location::
CO Capt Gomes says:
XO/CNS: We are here because we lost contact with the Nevsky at about the time of the Vroa war. Unfortunately we found her debris all scattered throughout the planet's orbit. There were also 2 shuttles on the surface, which the away team are investigating.
CO Capt Gomes says:
XO/CNS: The planet is supposed to be late industrial era. But it seems they had a devastating battle some 4 decades ago and there is no signs of them. In fact there are no apparent life signs on the planet.
SO Lt Crimson says:
CO:  Captain...  The away teams readings are off.  They are not together and not in the area they were supposed to be.  I am not reading Commander Heller either.
XO Cmdr Maor says:
::Glances up as he hears the SO's comments:: *SO*: Maor to Rose.
CO Capt Gomes says:
::Turns around::SO: Do you mean they are scattered on the surface?
SO Lt Crimson says:
CO:  Yes, ma'am.  At least two of them are.  Commander Pandora and Lt. Rose are about sixty kilometers from each other.
OPS Clark says:
CO: Captain, I just received a report from the transporter room. They had a slight problem during transport and nearly lost the pattern buffers. They managed to recover, but the destination fix was lost in the process.
CNS Ens Baro says:
::Frowns at the remarks:: Self: Curious. A ship scattered in orbit, people scattered on the planet. Curious. Curious.
CO Capt Gomes says:
::Turns to Maor:: XO: Transmit that information to them. But we won't try to use the transporters again.
CO Capt Gomes says:
OPS: How could this happen. Was it interference from the planet?
XO Cmdr Maor says:
CO: I'm getting what appears to be a garbled communication from the SO. ::Opens a new channel:: *OPS, CTO*: Maor to AT, please respond.
OPS Clark says:
CO: The transporter chief is still investigating. We'll have to go over the sensor logs to reconstruct the chain of events.
XO Cmdr Maor says:
CO: Want to prepare a shuttle, Captain?
CO Capt Gomes says:
OPS: Understood. Transporters are out until further notice.
SO Lt Crimson says:
CO:  Still unable to locate Commander Heller.
OPS LtCmdr Pandora says:
@*XO*: Pandora here. ::Sees his position projected on the map, way off from his destination::
CO Capt Gomes says:
XO: Yes, as soon as possible.
CO Capt Gomes says:
SO: Try to trace his transporter signal from the ship.
SO Lt Crimson says:
CO:  Working on it...
XO Cmdr Maor says:
::Sends the order to the SB:: *OPS*: Can you confirm your status? We read you off your projected landing area and alone.
CO Capt Gomes says:
CNS: Go with Commander Maor. If you find natives, hopefully you can help minimize contact.
CNS Ens Baro says:
::Baro had been watching and listening to what was happening on the bridge. After the request from the captain he nods:: CO: I will. ::His diplomatic background could come in handy, though he knew the XO probably had way more experience with this::
OPS LtCmdr Pandora says:
@*XO*: That's correct commander. I am trying to get a better fix on where I am and where to do. I could do with some advice, if you can give any.
CO Capt Gomes says:
XO: Communications will be an issue. Be prepared to handle matters without our help.

ACTION:  While communications seems to be possible, it is inconsistent, easily broken up.

XO Cmdr Maor says:
*OPS*: I'm on my way to your location, attempt to stand your ground. ::Moves to stand:: CNS: Let's go, Lieutenant. We need to find ourselves a pair of isolation suits. ::Makes his way toward the TL::
CNS Ens Baro says:
::Rises from his chair and follows the commander::
XO Cmdr Maor says:
::Enters the TL and begins making his way toward one of the shuttlebays::
SO Lt Crimson says:
CO:  Captain, no luck with Commander Heller.  Lieutenant Rose seems to be moving.  She appears to be located in a ravine about 10 km from the shuttles.
OPS LtCmdr Pandora says:
@*XO*: Understood. ::Checks his tricorder again for nearby landmarks, wondering if the source of the smell is marked on there::
CO Capt Gomes says:
::Gets up and approaches Crimson:: SO: Can you put a radius on the possible locations of Commander Heller?
XO Cmdr Maor says:
::Exits the TL, he begins making his way toward their prepared shuttle:: CNS: Grab a portable holo emitter and three isolation suits, Lieutenant. No need to break the prime directive while we're down there.
SO Lt Crimson says:
CO:  Unfortunately, no, given that Commander Pandora is almost 100 km from the landing site and she is about ten.
XO Cmdr Maor says:
::Gets inside the shuttle, he begins the launch sequence::
CNS Ens Baro says:
::Suits up, gets the needed things and takes his seat in the shuttle::
CO Capt Gomes says:
SO: So he could be anywhere ... but hopefully on the surface and not in the atmosphere ... or in orbit.
XO Cmdr Maor says:
::Opens the shuttlebay doors remotely:: *CO*: We'll keep you posted, Captain. ::Launches the ship, he directs it toward the direction of the OPS::
SO Lt Crimson says:
::Pulls up the grid screen.::  CO:  Even though the radiation is low level, it is messing with sensors.  ::Points to the grid screen::  I am starting to pick up more life readings.  And they are all around the planet except in this area here, which seems to be a dead zone.  Not surprising given the radiation levels.
SO Lt Crimson says:
CO:  As for Commander Heller, I can pretty much guarantee he is not in orbit.
CO Capt Gomes says:
*XO*: Understood. Try not to lose this one. Godspeed.
CNS Ens Baro says:
::His time being away was well spend as Baro now knew all the buttons::
CO Capt Gomes says:
SO: Send the sensor data to Commander Maor. How far are the Federation shuttles from the closest life signs?
XO Cmdr Maor says:
CNS: She's never going to forget that.

#ACTION:  The shuttle leaves the ship smoothly and is soon hitting the planet’s atmosphere.  On the screen small flashes of light seem to go off.  But the shuttle appears to be safe.

CNS Ens Baro says:
::chuckles:: XO: You've lost more shuttles, commander?
CNS Ens Baro says:
::Monitors the screens::
XO Cmdr Maor says:
CNS: I actually crash landed quite a few, that's why I never tend to fly these things. ::Steers the shuttle closer to the OPS's direction:: Hold on.
CO Capt Gomes says:
::Taps her badge:: *XO*: The radiation seems to be reacting with your hull. How is your SIF?
SO Lt Crimson says:
::Points::  CO:  Not really surprising given they probably had a major war, there are underground life signs.  The shuttle is about 100 km from Commander Pandora's location which appears to be a small village.  And about 2 km from the underground civilization.
CNS Ens Baro says:
XO: That makes me feel comfortable here, sir. ::Holds on to the console::
CNS Ens Baro says:
XO: But then again, you're still alive. That gives me some hope. ::smiles::
XO Cmdr Maor says:
#*CO*: Holding. ::Glances at the direction of the CNS:: CNS: And they say I don't have a sense of humor. ::Hits his badge:: *OPS*: Maor to Pandora.
CO Capt Gomes says:
SO: Then perhaps Mr. Heller materialized underground.
OPS LtCmdr Pandora says:
@*XO*: Pandora here, go ahead commander.
CO Capt Gomes says:
*XO*: We have new information that much of the planet's natives are underground. Once you collected Rose and Pandora you should find out whether Heller and the crew of the Nevsky are among them.
SO Lt Crimson says:
CO:  It is possible, ma'am.
XO Cmdr Maor says:
#*OPS*: Notice a clearing big enough to hold us around you, Commander?
SO Lt Crimson says:
CO:  I have a lock on Lieutenant Rose.
CO Capt Gomes says:
SO: That is good to know but I don't want to risk using the transporters.
CNS Ens Baro says:
::Looks out of the window and sees sparks coming from the shuttle:: XO: Well, at least we're visible to anyone down there looking up.
XO Cmdr Maor says:
#*CO*: Are you starting to notice the pattern here, Captain? Most of the planets we visited lately had underground cities.
SO Lt Crimson says:
CO:  Captain, I am reading life signs not far from her.  At their current rate, they will intercept her in a few minutes.  There appear to be 4 of them.  Three appear to be humanoid.
OPS LtCmdr Pandora says:
@::Looks around to check on the XO's request:: *XO*: Hang on, I'll take another look around..

@ACTION:  The quiet sounds of laughter can be heard by OPS.

CO Capt Gomes says:
::Tap her badge::*SO*: Gomes to Rose. Can you hear me Brianna?
XO Cmdr Maor says:
# ::Kills all the shuttle lights as he engages silent running mode::
CNS Ens Baro says:
#::Taps a few buttons to adjust the shuttles steering capabilities::
SO Lt Crimson says:
CO:  Maybe sooner, ma'am.  The fourth member of the party has taken off in her direction is quite fast.  The others are following.

OPS LtCmdr Pandora says:
@*XO*: I have a... ::Looks around as he hears what seems to be laughter coming from behind some bushes:: Perhaps this isn't the best place for you to land, it would seems there are some natives nearby...
CO Capt Gomes says:
::Listens to the garbled response and shakes her head::*SO*: I can't make out what you are saying. You have life signs coming your way. Try to hide. Commander Maor is en route.
CO Capt Gomes says:
::Taps her badge again::*XO*: Lt. Rose has apparently been compromised. Head to her location as soon as possible.
OPS LtCmdr Pandora says:
@::Starts heading away from where the sounds came, trying to be as quiet as possible so as not to give away his presence any further than he already has::
XO Cmdr Maor says:
#*OPS*: Standby, I'm engaging an emergency extraction protocol. Get ready to get it, we have a situation with the SO. ::Scans for a big enough landing area and begins to land:: I sent the location to your tricorder, you have 30 seconds to reach us. ::Finally lands::
SO Lt Crimson says:
CO:  Captain, she must have heard you.  She is running back the direction she came.  However, those after her are faster.  They will catch up with her shortly... especially the one that is non-humanoid, in about two minutes.
XO Cmdr Maor says:
#CNS:: Get to the airlock with your phaser. Cover the OPS while he gets in.
CO Capt Gomes says:
SO: It's a tough decision, but the transporters cannot be trusted.
CNS Ens Baro says:
::Nods and gets to the airlock::
OPS LtCmdr Pandora says:
@::Checks his tricorder, realizing that the landing is not that near and curses Maor for his short time limit as he starts running in the direction of the shuttlecraft::
CNS Ens Baro says:
#XO: Ready commander.
XO Cmdr Maor says:
# ::Opens the shuttle doors::
CNS Ens Baro says:
#::Takes a few steps out of the shuttle, scanning with his tricorder and in the other hand holding his phaser::

@ACTION:  Silent as a shuttle can be, there is still enough sound to draw the attention of others... especially when it is not expected or normal.

OPS LtCmdr Pandora says:
@::Sees the shuttle and adjusts his direction slightly to head straight for the open hatch::
XO Cmdr Maor says:
#*OPS*: 15 seconds, Commander.  ::Prepares the shuttle for launch again::
SO Lt Crimson says:
CO:  Captain, they have over taken her.  They are all at a standstill at the moment.
CNS Ens Baro says:
#::Puts away his tricorder, watches around carefully and then sees Pandora coming over::
OPS LtCmdr Pandora says:
@::Sees Baro at the hatch and increases speed, his legs screaming for oxygen::
CO Capt Gomes says:
SO: So much for the prime directive. Are her life signs stable?
XO Cmdr Maor says:
#*CO*: Please be advised, our presence may have been compromised by the natives.

CO Capt Gomes says:
*XO*: This is now a rescue mission. They have Rose. Assess the situation. If there is no other way to get her, we will engage transporters.
SO Lt Crimson says:
CO:  From what I can tell, other than the normal stress of a hard run, she appears fine.  ::Notes movement.::  They are on the move.
CO Capt Gomes says:
*XO*: Understood. Do what you can to minimize damage.
XO Cmdr Maor says:
# CNS: Tell him to hurry!
OPS LtCmdr Pandora says:
#::Steps onto the ramp and stumbles through the hatch::
XO Cmdr Maor says:
# All: Hold on. ::Engages emergency thrusters and lifts the shuttle to the air::
XO Cmdr Maor says:
# ::As soon as they're high enough with the shuttle he begins flying the shuttle to the direction of the SO::
OPS LtCmdr Pandora says:
@::Comes to a rolling halt against one of the bulkheads and takes a moment before sitting up::
CNS Ens Baro says:
#::Heads over to Pandora and helps him::
XO Cmdr Maor says:
#OPS, CNS: Ever been in a prime directive violation committee? Fun stuff.
CNS Ens Baro says:
#::Smiles:: XO: You've got experience with that to, sir?
