Star Trek: Apache Episode #4
Week # 24
Mission: "Crime and Punishment"

Host Jafo says:
The USS Apache has recovered the Away Team from Cyasta Core, and accepted the surrender of the USS An Lu-Shan. The An Lu-Shan, and her crew, has been turned over to the USS Hood and USS Intrepid.

Host Jafo says:
The Hood and Intrepid will assume the Apache's role in the Cyastan System due to the possible conflict of interests caused by the death of Admiral Poradin at the hands of Captain Tyler-Turnbull.

Host Jafo says:
The Apache has been authorized to perform the funerals of Admiral Poradin, and his family. In the meantime, Captain Tyler-Turnbull is to report to Starfleet Command to testify in the investigation of Admiral Poradin's death. Commander Valrek will take command of the Apache in her absence.

ST`OPS_Sevastas says:
XO: I suspect we will be dealing mostly low tech ... but that does not mean that they cannot hurt us.

CSO_Storal says:
SO: When you’re done I need you for a moment.

Host XO_Valrek says:
*OPS* Send it to the RR

OPS_Tekaro says:
XO: Aye sir. ::sends it to RR::

TO_Drathlai says:
::finds nothing wrong with power relays::

CTO_Lu says:
TO: Lets run a long range scan for anything unusual.

Host XO_Valrek says:
ST OPS: Much like the Cyastans tried to do, I assume?

SO_Yeung says:
CSO: Yes, sir. ::nods as diagnostic just finishes::

ST`OPS_Sevastas says:
XO: Actually, sir ... not quite THAT low tech.  Most of these groups are fully warp and phaser capable.

CMO_Quest-Mac says:
ALL: And clean up this mess... :: growls :: I'm in no mood for your "humor" understand?

ST`OPS_Sevastas says:
XO: Most of the recent uprisings have been related to the grain shortage in the Thorcet Sector ... but there are rumblings coming out of at least 6 Cardassian border worlds.

CEO_Toros says:
:: looks to the TO :: TO: Please show me a weapons inventory on this display, and your results from the last weapons diagnostic performed.

SO_Yeung says:
::walks over to the CSO:: CSO: Yes, sir?

TO_Drathlai says:
CSO: Of course, sir...  ::sends info to display::  That should be it, Lt.

CSO_Storal says:
SO: I have a few questions that I need to ask you so I can prepare the duty roster.

CNS_Naegle says:
::in Office, but doesn't know how she got there::

CTO_Lu says:
::relays the info to the CEO::

Host XO_Valrek says:
::looks over the data:: ST OPS: And what of the border worlds?

SO_Yeung says:
::nods:: CSO: Sure. Ask away.

CEO_Toros says:
:: nods to the CTO and TO :: CTO/TO: Thank You. :: transfers the information to his PADD and continues on into the TL :: TL: Sickbay.

CMO_Quest-Mac says:
:: shakes her head and wonders if the counselor have time for a cup of tea ::

Host XO_Valrek says:
::sees the message finally come through:: ST OPS: One moment please

ST`OPS_Sevastas says:
XO: Well most of the pirates are claiming one or another as their own ... kind of like the warlords of early Vulcan.

CSO_Storal says:
SO: First, what was your field at the academy?

Host XO_Valrek says:
::views the message from SFC::

OPS_Tekaro says:
::brings up program "Lets Learn OPS!!" and sees the amusing animations as the program begins::

CNS_Naegle says:
Torres: Lt. Torres, bring me the latest diagnostics on the systems in the main counseling room, please?

Host XO_Valrek says:
::nods to ST OPS as he closes out the message::

CNS_Naegle says:
<Jeff Torres> CNS: Aye. Lt.

ST`OPS_Sevastas says:
XO: Unfortunately a lot of the existing Cardassian military is still loyal to these warlords and is supporting them for the most part.  It's lead to widespread problems in their military … dereliction of duty and so forth.

CTO_Lu says:
::gets comfortable in the captains chair::

CEO_Toros says:
:: gets off the TL and enters Sickbay :: Anyone: Anybody home?

SO_Yeung says:
CSO: Well, first it was tactical, but I later switched to sciences midway.

CMO_Quest-Mac says:
CEO: Greetings, Lt. Asadourian...

CSO_Storal says:
SO: Any particular field of science?

TO_Drathlai says:
CTO:  Sir, I'm reading a minor fault in power relay, alpha six, should I request engineering maintenance crew?

Host XO_Valrek says:
ST OPS: We now have orders to investigate this.

CMO_Quest-Mac says:
:: goes greet him ::

CTO_Lu says:
TO: Go ahead.

CNS_Naegle says:
<Jeff Torres>::brings the diagnostics to the counselor:: CNS:  Everything is running smoothly, ma'am.

CMO_Quest-Mac says:
:: frowns at the mess that the others are still trying to clean up ::

CEO_Toros says:
:: nods :: CMO: Heya Doc, Do you have your latest diagnostic of your Medical systems?

CTO_Lu says:
TO: Contact the CEO.

ST`OPS_Sevastas says:
XO: Aye sir, I'm aware of that.  ::stands:: That is all I have for you now ... my team is compiling some further data.  I should have the names of the local warlords by the time we get there.

CMO_Quest-Mac says:
CEO: Excuse the mess... but apparently someone… :: glares at them :: …decided to have a party while the boss is away. :: grumbles ::

CNS_Naegle says:
Torres: Thanks Jeff.  How are your counseling sessions with Ensign Jamison coming?

Host XO_Valrek says:
ST OPS: Very good. I am sure that you will keep me informed.

CMO_Quest-Mac says:
CEO: I had one last week, just before the beginning of last mission... :: pauses :: That was a confusing sentence.  But I'm sure it can use another diagnostics about now...

Host XO_Valrek says:
::stands to re-enter the bridge::

TO_Drathlai says:
*CEO*:  Bridge to engineering, I'm reading a minor fault in power relay alpha six, could you please send a maintenance team?

OPS_Tekaro says:
::learns what many buttons do on the console...becomes more familiar with the whole operation::

ST`OPS_Sevastas says:
::nods and turns to go anxious to get out of his dress whites::

EO_Ven says:
::finishes working on impulse engines, running diagnostics::

SO_Yeung says:
CSO: I didn't find it very interesting, unlike science, which gave me a good challenge.

CMO_Quest-Mac says:
::hears the TO Com:: CEO: When your department have time, that is.

Host XO_Valrek says:
::enters the bridge:: CTO: Report

CEO_Toros says:
:: chuckles and leaves a broad smile on his face :: CMO: It's quite all right, may I see it? :: excuses himself from the doctor :: *Bridge* Acknowledged, team is on their way. Asadourian out.

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The panel the EO is working on suddenly sparks briefly and sputters out.

CNS_Naegle says:
<Jeff Torres> CNS:  It's coming along well.  I think there might be some family problems that she's having.  I'll try to get her to talk about them.

CTO_Lu says:
XO: Nothing new, except a minor power fluctuation.

CSO_Storal says:
SO: Ok, Well if it is a challenge you are looking for you have found it. I can be demanding, but I am fair.

Host XO_Valrek says:
::nods to CTO:: CTO: you can return to your post.

CTO_Lu says:
XO: Which is being dealt with as we speak.

CEO_Toros says:
*EO* Ensign Ven, there is a minor fluctuation in power relay Alpha Six, that's in Jefferies Tube Alpha 14.  Get on it.

EO_Ven says:
::pushes up sleeves and starts getting into warp engine mechanics::

Host XO_Valrek says:
OPS: What is the cause of the power fluctuations

CTO_Lu says:
::nods and walks back to tactical::

CNS_Naegle says:
Torres: Okay Mr. Torres, thanks. ::Thinks, now we might have to start from square one with her::

OPS_Tekaro says:
XO: Sir, for now your guess is as good as mine ... hold on...

TO_Drathlai says:
::moves back to subordinate tact::  CTO:  Here it is, sir, enjoyed it while I had it.  ::smiles::

SO_Yeung says:
::nods and smiles:: CSO: That's fine. Sounds like one of my instructors back at the academy.

CEO_Toros says:
CMO: Let's do it now shall we?

Host XO_Valrek says:
::frowns at the OPS's answer::

CTO_Lu says:
::grins at the TO::

EO_Ven says:
::realizes the console isn't responding::

CMO_Quest-Mac says:
CEO: Whenever you're ready... :: sweeps her arm ::

CSO_Storal says:
SO: The only thing that I ask is that you be straightforward and honest with me.

OPS_Tekaro says:
XO: I'm getting no clear readings because of the fluctuations...

CTO_Lu says:
TO: Ensign, what made you take tactical??

CEO_Toros says:
CMO: Can I see the diagnostic results from last week first please? :: smiles as he moves to a bio bed while seeing the CMO for that report ::

SO_Yeung says:
::nods:: CSO: I wouldn't have it any other way, sir.

Host XO_Valrek says:
FCO: Lay a course for Cardassian space at standard cruising speed.

CMO_Quest-Mac says:
CEO: Sure... no problem ... hang on a sec... :: goes off to her office to look for it ::

CSO_Storal says:
SO: Good glad to hear it, do you have any questions for me?

CTO_Lu says:
::hears the words Cardassian, and shivers::

CEO_Toros says:
:: reaches under a bio bed for a tool kit and detaches it removing a tricorder from it :: CMO: Okay.

CMO_Quest-Mac says:
:: sort through her piles of PADD’s :: CEO: Here it is... :: goes over to him, and hands it to him ::

TO_Drathlai says:
CTO: Sir, you took command a second ago ... and I am next in line...  ::looks baffled::

CNS_Naegle says:
::walks over to where the ensign is working:: Jamison:  Ensign Jamison, may I have a word with you?

FCO_V`taran says:
XO: Course laid in, sir.

Host XO_Valrek says:
FCO: Engage…

Host XO_Valrek says:
::takes his seat::

Host XO_Valrek says:
OPS: I hope you can sort things out soon.

EO_Ven says:
::looks at the screen instead to study the warp coils and warp cell currents::

FCO_V`taran says:
XO: Aye sir… ::engages the warp engines::

CSO_Storal says:
*XO*: Science department reporting sir. All sensors are fully operational

SO_Yeung says:
CSO: What duties will we perform in the future?

OPS_Tekaro says:
XO: Aye sir. From my readings though, there is no logical reason... ::frowns::

CTO_Lu says:
::smiles:: TO: Oh no.. What was your field back in the academy?

CMO_Quest-Mac says:
CEO: I'll leave you be... :: nods ::

Host XO_Valrek says:
*CSO*: Very good

CNS_Naegle says:
<Jamison> CNS:  Sure, Lt, what is it?

CEO_Toros says:
:: begins his diagnostic with the tricorder :: CMO: Acknowledged.

CMO_Quest-Mac says:
:: pulls out another PADD :: CEO: I think I'll do the inventory and supply check now ... while I have time.

Host XO_Valrek says:
OPS: Try checking your console, it may be out of calibration.

CMO_Quest-Mac says:
:: goes to the far corner of sickbay and opens the cupboard ::

OPS_Tekaro says:
XO: This is possible sir. I will check.

CEO_Toros says:
:: nods again and continues to work hitting the diagnostic buttons on all the medical equipment and transferring the results to his PADD :: CMO: All Done.

CMO_Quest-Mac says:
:: drops her jaw in surprise ::

CSO_Storal says:
SO: It depends on our mission. It can be anywhere from the typical scan and log info on star systems to a variety of away team missions.

TO_Drathlai says:
CTO: Sir, sorry… ::whispers:: …just a little jumpy.  Well, my father was a tactical officer, my grandfather and his six brothers were in tactical...

CNS_Naegle says:
Jamison:  Kaylee, is there something you're not telling us?

CMO_Quest-Mac says:
Hayley: Hayley?  What are you doing in the cupboard?

CMO_Quest-Mac says:
CEO: Merci, mon amie.

CEO_Toros says:
:: smiles warmly :: CMO: Well, not really done, The results will be transferred to my PADD and to your office there :: points ::

CTO_Lu says:
TO: Runs in the family...

OPS_Tekaro says:
::runs diagnostic on OPS, waits for results::

SO_Yeung says:
::nods:: CSO: What will we be doing now?

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: As the EO works to fix her panel it explodes showering little panel bits throughout Main Engineering.  Perhaps she zigged when she should have zagged.

CMO_Quest-Mac says:
:: laughs :: CEO: Thank you.  :: turns back to Hayley :: Hayley: What are you doing in there?

TO_Drathlai says:
CTO:  Yah, just following in my families footsteps...

Host XO_Valrek says:
::hopes that the Captain will be able to meet up with them soon::

CNS_Naegle says:
<Jamison> CNS: Well Lt,  I don't know what you mean.

CEO_Toros says:
:: nods as he leaves Sickbay entering a TL :: TL: Main Engineering.

CSO_Storal says:
SO: Well we had to make sure that all Science systems are up to speed, we suffered minor damage with the battle with the AN Lu-Shan.

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The Apache slips out of Cyastan space leaving the Hood and Intrepid behind, bound for Cardassian space.

TO_Drathlai says:
::smiles::  CTO:  And hopefully I'll reach as far as my father did...he was just promoted to Rear Admiral at Star Fleet Intelligence...

SEC_Abbott says:
::sees her chronometer beeping and realizes she is off duty now ... heads for her quarters::

SO_Yeung says:
::nods:: CSO: All right then.

CEO_Toros says:
:: feels the ship moving into warp as he steps off the TL into Main Engineering to find the mess ::

CNS_Naegle says:
Jamison:  I've been talking to Jeff Torres about you and I've been worried.

CTO_Lu says:
TO: Hmm ... Your father is in SFI.  Perhaps he might know Capt. C. Tigran Lu.

CSO_Storal says:
SO: You are going to be my second here in science bay.

OPS_Tekaro says:
::frowns as the console takes quite a while to calibrate:: XO: Sir, I'd like an engineer to investigate this panel, as I believe it is malfunctioning.

SEC_Abbott says:
::wonders how many hearts she will tear out in the holodeck program she is heading to::

CEO_Toros says:
:: looks around for an explanation :: EO: Ensign Ven!

Jaxlt_Burta says:
::done cleaning up Fort Apache Jax moves behind the bar and pours himself a Ferengi Stone Sour to enjoy::

CMO_Quest-Mac says:
:: lowers herself to the 10 year old girl's height :: Hayley: What's wrong?  What are you doing here?  Hmm...?  Where's your mom?  Do your parents know you're here?

TO_Drathlai says:
CTO:  Hmm, Tigran Lu, it sounds very familiar...

Host XO_Valrek says:
OPS: Slave over to another console and have an EO check yours out.

EO_Ven says:
CEO: Yes, sir?

CNS_Naegle says:
<Jamison> ::frightened a bit at what Janet might have found out:: CNS: I don't know what you mean, Sir!
