Star Trek: Apache - Episode #9
Week # 6
Mission: "Project: Overture, Part 1"

Host Jafo says:
After successfully crawling through the escape hatch, the away team made it to the bridge of the Bird of Prey in an attempt to take over the ship, Dorchel included.

Host Jafo says:
With little effort since there were only three other crew on the bridge, they managed to succeed and send yet another message to Apache and attempt to secure the bridge in case Dorchel and his men decided to return.

Host Jafo says:
Meanwhile, back on the Apache, it has now been confirmed that the suspected body of Sotovik is indeed that of Mr. Sovonal, Sotovik's aide. The away team's message has been received and contact has been made with Commander Linard and the rest of the team.

Host Jafo says:
Apache is speeding toward her position to lend aid against Dorchel, who has once again, and conveniently disappeared.

Host Jafo says:
It has now become known to the Away Team that who they thought was Mr. Sovonal, was indeed Mr. Sotovik in disguise. He had suspected the entire mission would end up in sabotage and thus switched places with his aide to protect himself and the valuable information he was carrying.

Host Jafo says:
He was right. Nereg had no interest in the future of Cardassia and had been hired by Dorchel to hand over the away team, leaving the Vulcan ambassadors to Nereg. Little did Nereg know, however, that Dorchel had already captured the Away Team and gotten Trenag out of the way.

Host Jafo says:
Once it was discovered about Nereg's plan, he wasted no time vacating the area.

Host Jafo says:
Dorchel has done the same and has once again left Apache to wonder of his whereabouts.

SO_Maura says:
::gets up from her seat and heads to the TL::

EO_Toros says:
CEO: I know her relatively well.  I served with her on the USS An Lu Shan.  She’s a very cooperative, very pleasant, young woman …  troublesome, but pleasant.

TO_Marsland says:
::walks onto the bridge, and to his console:: XO: Reporting for duty, sir.

SO_Maura says:

Host XO_Linard says:
::nods to the TO:: TO: Hello Ensign, rested and ready for duty?

MO_Cha`Dak says:
::exits TL and enters Sickbay::

TO_Marsland says:
XO: Aye, sir. How's the ship ?

MO_Cha`Dak says:
CMO: Good morning, Doctor, my apologies for my tardiness. I was ... awaiting a certain transmission. ::snarls slightly, clearly annoyed at himself::

TO_Marsland says:
::relieves the junior officer at his console::

Host XO_Linard says:
::grins at the CSO:: CSO: Of course ... would you like to escort him to the ready room for me?

CMO_Naegle says:
::continues working on Sovonal, sees the MO enter Sickbay:: MO: It's okay, I just need you to finish up with Crapic so we can get him ready for burial.

EO_Toros says:
CEO: Well ... nothing that would cross her off the suspects list.  But the idea of her being the assassin doesn't add up.  She had no motive for killing the Chief, nor did she know the chief very well.  At least, that was my understanding.  However, there's the possibility that she was lying. ::shrugs::

CEO_Yeung says:
EO: Hmm .... well, let's get on with the other questionings, who do we have left?

MO_Cha`Dak says:
CMO: Aye, sir. 

TO_Marsland says:

CSO_Storal says:
XO: Agreed ... I'll return momentarily. ::heads to the TL::

Host XO_Linard says:
*CMO*: Linard here. Go ahead Doctor

EO_Toros says:
CEO: To save time ... should one of us go talk to the doctor?

CEO_Yeung says:
::stands up and takes the PADD:: SO: Thank you, Lieutenant.

FCO_Powers says:
TO: I’ll take care of it, Ensign.

Host XO_Linard says:
TO: That won't be necessary Mister Marsland, Mister Storal will be bringing him to see me.

SO_Maura says:
::smiles and nods and begins to turn away::

CEO_Yeung says:
::nods at EO:: EO: All right, I'll let you handle that.

CMO_Naegle says:
*XO*: Commander, I have prepared Mr. Sovonal's body as best I can.  We can bury him in space or have him transported back to Vulcan.  I believe it’s your call, sir.

CEO_Yeung says:
SO: A moment, please, Lieutenant.

MO_Cha`Dak says:
::exits the TL and walks down the corridor towards the Ship’s Morgue::

SO_Maura says:

CSO_Storal says:
::enters the TL:: Computer: Deck 4

CEO_Yeung says:
SO: I'm afraid I'll have to ask you to stay for a bit, I have a few questions for you regarding our current investigation.

EO_Toros says:
::looks over at the SO:: SO: Excuse me, ma'am... ::brushes past her::

Host XO_Linard says:
*CMO*: Thank you Doctor. I think I will ask Mr. Sotovik what he wishes to do with Mr. Sovonal. I'll let you know what he says.

SO_Maura says:
::looks over at Toros and smiles:: Toros: Quite all right.

Host XO_Linard says:
::nods:: TO: Granted.

CSO_Storal says:
:: exits the TL and heads to Sotovik's quarters and rings the chime::

TO_Marsland says:
Computer: Location of the CEO?

::re-routes tactical to flight control::

MO_Cha`Dak says:
::enters Morgue and accesses a computer panel allowing Chief Crapic’s body to slide out of the wall, wrapped in a clear plastic bag::

EO_Toros says:
::enters into the TL:: TL: Sickbay ... Deck 9.

Host Sotovik says:
::looks up as his meditation is interrupted:: CSO: Come in, Commander...

SO_Maura says:
::smiles softly:: CEO: All right... ::takes a seat:: CEO: Everything should be in that report I just gave you.

CSO_Storal says:
::enters the room:: Sotovik: Sorry for interrupting your meditation, but the XO needs to debrief you, sir.

CEO_Yeung says:
SO: I know, but there are some things I need to question you about.

Host XO_Linard says:
::sits back in her chair and begins going over the reports of the investigation so far::

SO_Maura says:
CEO: All right... ::waits::

EO_Toros says:
*CMO*: Doctor Naegle ... are you in sickbay?

SO_Maura says:
::suddenly feeling claustrophobic::

TO_Marsland says:
::enters the TL:: TL: Main Engineering.

Host Sotovik says:
::nods and stands from his kneeling position:: CSO: Of course, Commander ... where shall we meet her?

CEO_Yeung says:
SO: Please sit down, this might take a while.

CMO_Naegle says:
::looks over the reports on Sovonal's and Crapic’s death, hears the Com:: *EO*: Yes Lieutenant, how can I help you?

TO_Marsland says:
TL: Stop ... Deck 6.

CSO_Storal says:
Sotovik: She'll be conducting the Debrief in her Ready Room.

MO_Cha`Dak says:
*CSO*: MO to CSO.

EO_Toros says:
*CMO*: Ah, wonderful.. ::gets off the TL on Deck 9::  I'm on my way to see you.

CSO_Storal says:
*MO*: Go ahead Lieutenant..

TO_Marsland says:
::exits the TL:: *CMO*: Is it possible for you to bring a medical monitor to the bridge, to fix on Mr. Sotovik? It would greatly help me monitor him.

SO_Maura says:
::sits:: CEO: Okay … but I don’t know how I can be of much help.  Except, of course, for what is already in those reports. ::points, indicating the PADD on his desk::

CMO_Naegle says:
*EO*: Okay Lieutenant, I'm waiting with breathless anticipation.

Host Sotovik says:
CSO: Lead on Commander... ::follows Storal::

EO_Toros says:
::walks into sickbay and looks around:: ALL: And here I am ... hello?  Dr. Naegle?

TO_Marsland says:
::heads for Mr. Sotovik's quarters, and runs into the CSO and Mr. Sotovik::

CSO_Storal says:
::leads Sotovik to the ready room::

MO_Cha`Dak says:
*CSO*: Sir, will you be requiring the body of Chief Crapic for scientific research or study? I am ready to prepare his body for burial.

Host Sotovik says:
::follows behind Storal dutifully::

EO_Toros says:
CMO: Wonderful … because here I am. I need to ask you a few questions regarding the death of Chief Crapic.

CSO_Storal says:
*MO*: Has the autopsy been completed?

CEO_Yeung says:
::glances down at his PADD:: SO: Can you tell me if you knew Chief Crapic personally?

CMO_Naegle says:
::waves the EO in as she answers the TO:: *TO*: I'm kind of busy right now Ensign, can you monitor him from the bridge using the ship's computer?

MO_Cha`Dak says:
*CMO*: Yes, sir.

Host Sotovik says:
::bows his head at the TO:: TO: It pleases me to see you again, Mister Marsland.

TO_Marsland says:
Computer: Please monitor Mr. Sotovik's location and lifesigns, and update them on this PADD.

SO_Maura says:
CEO: No sir, I don’t believe we’ve had the opportunity to meet.  You see, I’ve only been aboard a short time.

CMO_Naegle says:
EO:  Hi Toros.  What do you need to know?

Host Sotovik says:
::nods approvingly:: TO: A most logical precaution...

TO_Marsland says:
Sotovik: And you, Mister Sotovik, how are you feeling?

Host Sotovik says:
::rather stoically:: TO: My meditations have not been as peaceful as usual ... but I will be fine.

Host Computer says:
*TO*: bleep

TO_Marsland says:
Sotovik: I have been placed in charge of you. I thought it would be a satisfactory precaution.

EO_Toros says:
CMO: I need to know everything ... but let's start from the very beginning.  Where were you on the day that Crapic died?

TO_Marsland says:
::looks down at the PADD::

CEO_Yeung says:
::nods:: SO: What were your whereabouts during the time beginning from the departure of the Away Team up to the discovery of Chief Crapic's body?

TO_Marsland says:
Sotovik: Good day to you, Mr. Sotovik. I will check in on you a little later, if that is acceptable.

SO_Maura says:
::thinks a moment:: CEO: I believe I was on the bridge, sir. You could check my duty roster.

Host Sotovik says:
::walks with the CSO and the TO:: TO: Yes, of course Ensign ... any time is acceptable.

TO_Marsland says:
Sotovik: Glad to hear it.

Host XO_Linard says:
*CMO*: Do you have the autopsy report on Chief Crapic, doctor? I'd like to look at it a little further.

CMO_Naegle says:
::thinks a minute then remembers that day:: EO:  I'm embarrassed to say that I arrived two hours late for work that morning.  The computer can verify my whereabouts for the time I was sleeping.  I came into sickbay and started going over my reports and fell asleep again.

TO_Marsland says:
::leaves the CSO and Mr. Sotovik:: *CEO*: How is the investigation coming Lieutenant Yeung? Do you require any assistance?

SO_Maura says:
::watches him carefully::

CEO_Yeung says:
*TO*: None at the moment, but thanks.

TO_Marsland says:
*CEO*: Aye sir. If you require any assistance, just let me know.

CSO_Storal says:
::enters the TL and waits for Sotovik to enter:: TL: Bridge

MO_Cha`Dak says:
*CSO*: Aye, sir.

SO_Maura says:
::tries to remember where exactly she was in case he asks more, days have run together so much lately::

CMO_Naegle says:
*XO*:  I can check with Dr. Cha`Dak, he did the report.  I'll have it up to you in minutes.

TO_Marsland says:
::catches the next TL:: TL: Bridge.

Host XO_Linard says:
::wonders where the CSO and Sotovik are::

CSO_Storal says:
*MO*: No Mister Cha`Dak, I don’t need the body.

EO_Toros says:
::raises eyebrow at that statement:: CMO: Why were you so tired?  As a doctor, you must know the importance of keeping oneself healthy by getting plenty of sleep.

MO_Cha`Dak says:
*CSO*: Very well, sir.

CEO_Yeung says:
SO: Are you sure that you were on the bridge, at all times, during the period in question?

MO_Cha`Dak says:
::prepares the body for burial::

CMO_Naegle says:
*MO*: Dr. Cha`Dak, Commander Linard would like a copy of the report on Crapic's autopsy.

CSO_Storal says:
::exits the TL and walks onto the bridge escorting Sotovik to the ready room::

TO_Marsland says:
*XO*: As Mr. Yeung doesn't require any assistance, permission to stay with Mr. Sotovik at all times, at least until we find the culprits?

MO_Cha`Dak says:
*CMO*: I shall deliver it as soon as I have finished down here.

SO_Maura says:
::thinks real hard:: CEO: Well, I’m not completely sure. I’d imagine if I wasn’t on duty at the time, I was likely in my quarters. I spend most of my spare time in my quarters … I’m sure the computer could corroborate that.

CMO_Naegle says:
::sighs and shrugs:: EO: Toros, I don't know.  What with all the surgical alterations, autopsies and whatnot, I just got exhausted and didn't wake up on time that day.

CMO_Naegle says:
*MO*: Thank you, I'll inform the Commander.

TO_Marsland says:
*XO*: It's not that I don't trust you Commander, it's just that we can't afford to completely trust anyone until we solve this investigation.

Host XO_Linard says:
*TO*: I'm going to need you on the bridge, Ensign. Assign a security detail to stay with him wherever he goes on the ship.

SO_Maura says:
CEO: To be quite honest., the days seem to have run together and I'm not really sure what day I was where… 

CSO_Storal says:
*XO*: Mister Sotovik is ready, Sir.

CMO_Naegle says:
*XO*: Commander, Dr. Cha`Dak is preparing Crapic's body for burial and will have the report to you as soon as possible.

TO_Marsland says:
*XO*: Sir, I'd feel much better if I myself was with him. I'm sure a Junior Officer could handle Tactical just fine. ::steps out of the TL and looks at the XO::

Host XO_Linard says:
::nods to Mr. Sotovik:: Sotovik: Yes, I would like to see you for a few moments in the ready room, if you will. ::motions to the doors::

CEO_Yeung says:
::nods slowly and makes several notes on his PADD:: SO: Next question, do you have access to liquid chemicals of any kind?

Host Sotovik says:
::nods and follows her::

TO_Marsland says:
XO: Commander?

SO_Maura says:
CEO: Liquid chemicals, sir? ::looks baffled:: I don’t believe so. As a Science Officer I do deal with quite a few chemicals on a regular basis, but only in my official capacity.

CSO_Storal says:
::sits in the command chair::

EO_Toros says:
CMO: I see … and how about Crapic himself?  How well did you know the man?   Being his doctor, you must have the opportunity to get to know him a bit when he comes in for his checkups.

SO_Maura says:
CEO: Anything in particular ?

Host XO_Linard says:
::looks back at the TO:: TO: You're dedication is admirable, ensign, very well then. But I need to see Mr. Sotovik in my ready room now. You can wait outside.

CEO_Yeung says:
SO: I'll get to that in a moment.  Have you come into contact with medical supplies of any sort?

TO_Marsland says:
XO: Aye, sir.

SO_Maura says:
CEO: I haven’t been in the medical labs much lately … this investigation has taken top priority.

SO_Maura says:
CEO: No sir.

Host XO_Linard says:
::enters the Ready Room and takes a seat motioning for Sotovik to do the same::

Host Sotovik says:
::enters the ready room and bows deeply to the XO:: XO: You wished to see me, Commander Linard?

TO_Marsland says:
*TO_Cagney*: Please report to the bridge and take over the Tactical Station, Mister Cagney.

Host XO_Linard says:
*CMO*: Thank you Doctor … let me know when you are ready.

Host Sotovik says:
::sits in the chair indicated and places his hands upon his thighs::

TO_Cagney says:
TO: Aye sir. ::heads for a TL::

TO_Marsland says:
::takes a post outside the RR door::

CMO_Naegle says:
::thinks carefully before answering:: EO: No, I didn't know him well at all.  He was just a transporter chief.  That's not to say that Transporter chiefs aren't important, you understand.  But I didn't know him well.

CEO_Yeung says:
SO: Are you familiar with the drug called "Vasokin"?

Host XO_Linard says:
::smiles at Sotovik:: Sotovik: I take it you are rested after your ordeal?

MO_Cha`Dak says:
::after preparing the body, places Chief Crapic into a torpedo casing and, accessing the computer panel once again, slides the torpedo casing back into the wall::

CSO_Storal says:
::brings up the Bird of Prey’s sensor logs on the chair's console and begins to sift thru them::

CIV_Xavier says:
::walks out of her room looking kind of rumpled::

Host Sotovik says:
::nods his head:: XO: Why yes, Commander ... as can be expected. I appreciate your concern for my well being.

TO_Cagney says:
::enters the TL:: TL: Deck One, bridge.

CMO_Naegle says:
*XO*: Aye sir.

CIV_Xavier says:
::runs to the TL::

EO_Toros says:
::muddles that over:: CMO: Yes, I understand ... when was the last time you came into contact with the Chief?

TO_Marsland says:
::pulls out his PADD and monitors Mr. Sotovik's lifesigns::

SO_Maura says:
::thinks hard trying to recall science lectures and tests at the Academy:: CEO: I’m not sure. It’s been some time since I left the Academy. ::laughs softly::  I believe it is something used for thinning blood … but don’t quote me on it.

Host XO_Linard says:
Sotovik: Call it medical instincts ... I'm always concerned.

Host XO_Linard says:
Sotovik: I'm sure you're aware that we have an assassin loose aboard our ship.

MO_Cha`Dak says:
::retrieves a nearby PADD, and downloads the autopsy report on Chief Crapic::

CSO_Storal says:
FCO: Anything on sensors Mister Powers?

TO_Marsland says:
*CIV*: Please report to the bridge, and take over Tactical. I will be guarding Mr. Sotovik while he is aboard the Apache.

CEO_Yeung says:
::chuckles lightly:: SO: I understand, Lieutenant. ::jots down a couple more notes::

CMO_Naegle says:
EO:  He came in for his physical about two months ago.

CIV_Xavier says:
::enters TL::

Host Sotovik says:
XO: Yes, Commander ... an assassin who undoubtedly is still aiming for me.

CIV_Xavier says:
*TO*: Umm … I was on my way.

SO_Maura says:
::smiles somewhat embarrassed thinking she should know that answer::

CIV_Xavier says:
TL: Bridge.

FCO_Powers says:
CSO: No, Commander. 

MO_Cha`Dak says:
::after finishing, exits the morgue and heads to the TL::

TO_Marsland says:
*CIV*: Thank you.

Host XO_Linard says:
::relaxes and crosses her legs:: Sotovik: Yes, which is exactly why I have assigned security to be with you at all times.

EO_Toros says:
::mutters, two months::

CEO_Yeung says:
::ponders for a moment::

SO_Maura says:
::looks around and stands:: CEO: Mind if I help myself to a drink?

Host Sotovik says:
XO: A wise precaution...

MO_Cha`Dak says:
TL: Sickbay.

SO_Maura says:
::begins walking to the replicator::

CSO_Storal says:
FCO: How familiar are you with Klingon flight systems?

EO_Toros says:
::raises eyebrows slightly again:: CMO: Are you sure?

CMO_Naegle says:
::waits for the next question::

MO_Cha`Dak says:
::exits TL and enters sickbay::

CEO_Yeung says:
::looks up:: SO: No, I don't think it will be a problem.

Host XO_Linard says:
Sotovik: It seems that one of our officers, Transport Chief Crapic, was assigned to kill you. We think he may be working for someone aboard the Apache.

SO_Maura says:
::smiles warmly at him as she orders a drink and watches him turn back to his PADD::

CEO_Yeung says:
::stands up and joins the Science Officer:: SO: I think I'll have a glass of water myself.

TO_Marsland says:
Cagney:  Your services will be needed at Tactical until the CIV gets here. After that, you will be helping me with Mr. Sotovik. When the CIV gets here, please take up a position by the TL doors.

SO_Maura says:
::smiles:: CEO: Okay… ::turns to the replicator:: Replicator: Two glasses of water, please. ::regards the Chief:: CEO: any particular temperature?

Host Sotovik says:
::raises an eyebrow:: XO: Yes, I am aware of Mister Crapic's attempt to murder me. I presume he had assistance aboard your vessel?

MO_Cha`Dak says:
CMO: Sir, Chief Crapic’s body has been prepared for burial and placed into a torpedo casing. I also have the autopsy report for Commander Linard.

CEO_Yeung says:
SO: Room temperature is fine.

TO_Cagney says:
TO: Aye, sir.

SO_Maura says:
::nods and smiles at the CEO:: Replicator: Two waters, room temperature.

CIV_Xavier says:
::enters the bridge and heads for the Tactical::

CMO_Naegle says:
::pulls up records in computer terminal:: EO: Crapic, Crapic … yes, here it is. His last physical was two months ago, stardate 10009.24.

MO_Cha`Dak says:
CMO: Should I deliver it to her now?

SO_Maura says:
::takes the glasses from the replicator and hands one to the CEO, pauses a moment standing at the terminal taking a sip from her glass::

CMO_Naegle says:
MO: Please do, Doctor.

TO_Cagney says:
::sees Miss Xavier, gives her the console, and takes up a position by the TL doors::

FCO_Powers says:
::releases computer access to the tactical station back to Ensign Xavier::

CIV_Xavier says:
::begins scanning the area::

Host XO_Linard says:
Sotovik: Yes, but unfortunately we aren't much closer to finding out who is responsible just yet. Our Chief Engineer has narrowed the field down to five suspects and is in the process of questioning them.

CEO_Yeung says:
::returns to his seat and places his glass on the table::

MO_Cha`Dak says:
::nods, realizing she is in the middle of something with the EO, and exits sickbay, heading towards the TL ... again::

CIV_Xavier says:
::hmm one Bird of Prey::

SO_Maura says:
::walks over to him and stops by his desk picking up the PADD she just gave him a few minutes ago::

CEO_Yeung says:
SO: If you don't mind me saying so, Lieutenant, you have seemed quite distracted the past few days.

EO_Toros says:
CMO: According to this record… ::taps PADD:: …he developed a nasty cold and had seen you personally to get it treated. ::grins:: CMO: That was 2 days before he died.

CIV_Xavier says:
::realizes:: Self: Shoot, my supplements…

CIV_Xavier says:
::looks at the chronometer::

CEO_Yeung says:
SO: Has there been anything disturbing you lately?

TO_Marsland says:
::checks Mr. Sotovik's lifesigns with the PADD::

MO_Cha`Dak says:
TL: Bridge.

EO_Toros says:
CMO: Why wasn't that treatment reflected in your record, ma'am?   Computer glitch?

SO_Maura says:
CEO: Distracted sir? Well, I have been concentrating on preparing these reports … looking for answers, same as you.

CMO_Naegle says:
::looks at her own records again:: EO:  Yes, you're right.  I gave him a mild decongestant.

SO_Maura says:
::sets her glass down and with both hands slams the PADD across the side of the Chief’s head:: CEO: Nothing distracting me at all…

MO_Cha`Dak says:
::exits TL and enters the bridge::

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: Science Officer Maura's actions quickly render the CEO unconscious as his body slumps quietly to the floor of his office in Main Engineering.

Host Sotovik says:
::nods understandably:: XO: I'm sure I am safe in your crews capable hands until the assassin is apprehended.

CEO_Yeung says:
::falls out of his chair and onto the floor::

EO_Toros says:
CMO: Good. Now that we've got that established ... have any medical supplies gone missing?

SO_Maura says:
::composes herself before leaving the office and moving across Main Engineering. Accesses tractor controls and sets up a recursive algorithm to disable the beam::

MO_Cha`Dak says:
::approaches CSO::

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The tractor beam holding the Bird of Prey in place quickly winks out and the Bird of Prey is floating freely.

Host XO_Linard says:
::nods and smiles:: Sotovik: I'm glad you trust us Ambassador. We will make sure you are safe.

SO_Maura says:
::walks out of main engineering and heads towards the nearest turbolift::

Host Sotovik says:
XO: My faith in this crew has had little reason to waver, Commander.

Host XO_Linard says:
Sotovik: In the meantime, Mr. Sovonal’s body is ready for burial. Is there anything special you wish us to do with the body?

CSO_Storal says:
CIV: Anything on sensors Mister Xavier?

FCO_Powers says:
::notices tractor beam turn off::  CSO: Commander, we may have a problem…

CSO_Storal says:
FCO: What is it?

MO_Cha`Dak says:
CSO: Sir, I have the autopsy report for the XO, but it seems she is busy now.

TO_Marsland says:
::looks to the CSO and FCO::

FCO_Powers says:
::tries to lock tractor beam back on::

MO_Cha`Dak says:
::looks at FCO::

CMO_Naegle says:
::looks at records of supplies:: EO:  OH MY GOD!  Toros! Three vials of Vasokin are missing from stores.

CSO_Storal says:
MO: I’ll take it, thank you Lt.

Host Sotovik says:
XO: No, Commander ... when we arrive at the Starbase the body can be turned over to Vulcan authorities. They will handle his burial ... he was a good assistant.

FCO_Powers says:
CSO: The tractor beam has been disengaged.

SO_Maura says:
Computer: deck 6

CSO_Storal says:
FCO: Try and get another one on it.

MO_Cha`Dak says:
::hands the CSO the PADD, while listening to the FCO::

TO_Marsland says:
::heads for the Tactical Station, and looks at tactical sensors::

CMO_Naegle says:
*MO*: Cha`Dak! What do you know about Vasokin?

SO_Maura says:
::exits on to deck six::

FCO_Powers says:
CSO: I'm trying sir.

SO_Maura says:
::looks for Sotovik’s quarters::

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: As the FCO attempts to reestablish the tractor beam, it quickly becomes clear the tractor emitter has been disabled somehow.

Host XO_Linard says:
Sotovik: That he was, and quite devoted to this mission. ::nods sadly:: I will inform Dr. Naegle of your wishes.

FCO_Powers says:
::tries to get it back up::

TO_Marsland says:
*EO*: Could you check the status of the tractor beam emitters?

FCO_Powers says:
CSO: It's been disabled, Commander.

Host Sotovik says:
::nods:: XO: Aye sir ... now if you would excuse me, I'd like to retire to my quarters.

EO_Toros says:
CMO: Who would have access to those supplies? ::sighs:: CMO: Lieutenant, I’d like you to find out who was the last person to access the medical stores and report back to me. I have no reason, at this time, to believe you were involved in Chief Crapic’s death. ::stands up and heads to the door:: CMO: Please contact me as soon as possible with that information.

MO_Cha`Dak says:
*CMO*: Sir, I know that it is like a powerful form of adrenaline, and that, given enough, the heart will explode. It was what killed Chief Crapic.

Host XO_Linard says:
::nods:: Sotovik: Of course ambassador, I will have my Tactical Officer escort you there.

CMO_Naegle says:
EO: Thank you Toros.

CSO_Storal says:
*XO*: Sir the Tractor beam has been disabled. We’re no longer towing Glinn Dorchel’s Bird of Prey.

Host XO_Linard says:
::stands and walks with him to the bridge::

CSO_Storal says:
FCO: From where?

EO_Toros says:
CMO: Good day.  ::leaves abruptly as he arrived:: *TO*: Will do.

CMO_Naegle says:
*MO*: Yes that's right.  Would you come back to Sickbay as soon as possible?

CSO_Storal says:
TO: Tom Scan the Bird of Prey and lock down its systems.

FCO_Powers says:
CSO: I don't know sir … I'm working on it

TO_Marsland says:
::sees Mr. Sotovik and the XO appear on the bridge::

SO_Maura says:
::stops at his quarters and rings the chime, getting no answer, overrides the door and enters::

MO_Cha`Dak says:
*CMO*: Aye sir. ::heads to TL::

Host XO_Linard says:
TO: Mr. Sotovik would like to return to his quarters. Escort him there and have your teams stand guard outside his door.

EO_Toros says:
*Graph*: What's the matter with the tractor beam emitters?

Host Sotovik says:
::walks out onto the bridge with the Commander::

MO_Cha`Dak says:
TL: Sickbay.

SO_Maura says:
::looks around for him quietly::

TO_Marsland says:
CSO: Aye sir. ::looks over to Cagney who’s waiting at the TL:: Cagney:  Please escort Mr. Sotovik to his quarters, along with a security team.

Host XO_Linard says:
CSO: How? By whom?

SO_Maura says:
::waits in the shadows till he returns::

CSO_Storal says:
*CEO*: Mr. Yeung. The tractor beam has been disabled check the array immediately.

CSO_Storal says:
XO: We don’t know yet, sir.

TO_Marsland says:
Cagney:  Also, erect a level ten forcefield once he's inside safely.  On second thought I'll come with you.

TO_Marsland says:
Sotovik: Shall we?

Host XO_Linard says:
::takes the command chair::

CSO_Storal says:
TO: Tom ... what’s the status of the Bird of Prey?

TO_Marsland says:
CIV: Please check the Bird of Prey, and lock down its systems.

Host Sotovik says:
::nods at the Ensign:: TO: Please, Mister Marsland...

Host XO_Linard says:
::turns on her arm console::

FCO_Powers says:
XO: Should I go over their sir?

TO_Marsland says:
CSO: Ask the CIV, sir.

MO_Cha`Dak says:
::exits the TL and enters sickbay::

TO_Marsland says:
Cagney: Take the lead.

EO_Toros says:
::starts heading towards Main Engineering and gets into the TL:: TL: Main Engineering ... no, wait, belay that. Bridge please. ::figures that the CEO is still in Engineering and can handle things down there::

MO_Cha`Dak says:
CMO: Sir, you wished to see me?

TO_Marsland says:
::enters the TL along with Mr. Sotovik and Mr. Cagney::

Host XO_Linard says:
FCO: No, that's not necessary. We'll do what we can from here.

Host Sotovik says:
::waits as the TL begins its descent through the ship::

FCO_Powers says:
XO: Yes sir. 

CSO_Storal says:
::glares at the TO as he enters the turbolift:: CIV: Ensign Xavier, what’s the status of the Bird of Prey?

TO_Marsland says:
*Security*: Please have a team meet us on Deck 6 at Mr. Sotovik's quarters. We may have a problem.

CMO_Naegle says:
MO:  It seems we have three vials of Vasokin missing from our supplies.  I don't think you took it, by any means.  But we need to find out who did.

EO_Toros says:
::flicks his right wrist, tapping the PADD in his left palm ... waiting impatiently for the TL to arrive at destination::

MO_Cha`Dak says:
CMO: How do you suggest we do that?

CIV_Xavier says:
CSO: Just sitting their, sir.

CIV_Xavier says:
::scans the Bird of Prey::

Host XO_Linard says:
*CEO*: Mr. Yeung, have you determined the cause of the disabled tractor beam?

CMO_Naegle says:
MO:  Well, who had access to the supplies or need to get Vasokin?

CSO_Storal says:
CIV: Lock that ship down...

TO_Marsland says:
Cagney: When we exit the TL, take the lead with a strong defensive position. I will take the rear.

TO_Cagney says:
TO: Aye sir.

CIV_Xavier says:
::transmits a signal and locks down the ship::

Host Sotovik says:
::arrives on deck 6 and steps out into the hall with the security team:: TO: Mister Marsland? Is everything okay?

CSO_Storal says:
Computer: Where is CEO: Yeung?

EO_Graph says:
::finds the CEO’s body and checks his pulse:: *XO*: Sir ... Mister Yeung is unconscious!

CIV_Xavier says:
::encodes the ship with a rotating hexadecimal code::

Host Computer says:
*CSO*: Lieutenant Yeung is in Main Engineering.

Host XO_Linard says:
Ens Graph: Cause?

TO_Marsland says:
::exits the TL:: Sotovik: We may have a possible problem. One of our tractor beams has been disabled, and could mean sabotage.

EO_Toros says:
::gets stopped at deck 6 for some passengers and spots Sotovik in the corridor::

MO_Cha`Dak says:
CMO: Only the medical staff and the command crew have access to our supplies. I would have to check the medical database for patients requiring Vasokin, but it is not a drug administered regularly. How much is missing?

EO_Toros says:
::decides to see how the ambassador is doing, and heads over to him::

CMO_Naegle says:
MO:  Wait!  I've got something here.  It seems that the last person to go through the medical stores was … Science Officer Maura.

EO_Graph says:
*CMO*: Medical emergency in Main Engineering!

TO_Marsland says:
::begins to head towards Sotovik's quarters, but stops when he sees the EO coming::

MO_Cha`Dak says:
::looks at CMO::

Host Sotovik says:
::bows to the Lieutenant:: EO: I don't believe we've met ... I am Chief Negotiator Sotovik, of the V'Shar.

CIV_Xavier says:
::looks at the time::

EO_Graph says:
*XO*: I don't know, ma'am ... I found him this way when I wanted to drop off some diagnostics.

CMO_Naegle says:
::hears her combadge chirp:: *Graph*: I’m on my way!  ::turns to Cha`Dak before leaving:: MO:  Find out why Maura needed Vasokin, I'm going to Main Engineering.

CIV_Xavier says:
::begins to worry::

MO_Cha`Dak says:
CMO: Aye, sir.

MO_Cha`Dak says:
::taps combadge:: *SO*: Cha`Dak to Maura…

EO_Toros says:
::tries to imitate the bow:: Sotovik: Lieutenant Toros Asadourian at your service... ::straightens up awkwardly::

Host XO_Linard says:
*Graph*: Acknowledged, get him to sickbay right away.

CMO_Naegle says:
::runs out of Sickbay to nearest Turbolift:: TL: Engineering, Deck 13

EO_Graph says:
*XO*: Understood!

Host Sotovik says:
::nods:: EO: Join me in my quarters ... I understand you are assisting in the investigation. TO: Undoubtedly the Lieutenant has some questions for me.

TO_Marsland says:
EO: Did you determine the tractor emitter's problem?

Host XO_Linard says:
::looks at the CSO:: CSO: I don't like this. I have a bad feeling something is about to happen

CMO_Naegle says:
::waits for the turbolift to stop and then runs out with his medical kit in hand:: Graph: What happened?

CIV_Xavier says:
::only if they can scan me now … grits her teeth trying to keep some composer::

CSO_Storal says:
XO: I think, with the assassin still at large, we should lock out transporter controls as well.

MO_Cha`Dak says:
Computer: Computer, locate Science officer Deidre Maura.

TO_Marsland says:
Sotovik: Aye Ambassador. However, I should remain with you at all times, or one of my personnel.

EO_Toros says:
::grins a little:: Sotovik: Truly telepathic.  I was about to request a moment of your time.

CIV_Xavier says:
Self: Assassin onboard?

Host Sotovik says:
::walks towards his quarters followed by the TO and EO:: TO: No trouble at all ... I'm sure the EO won't mind you joining us.

MO_Cha`Dak says:
::waits for computer to respond::

EO_Toros says:
TO: I have left Ens. Graph in charge of the emitters ... he has not reported back yet. I'm sure the CEO will have the problem fixed in no time.

Host XO_Linard says:
CSO: Good idea. Take care of it right away.

CIV_Xavier says:
Self: Should I break my cover? In this state are you crazy?

TO_Marsland says:
EO: Good. ::heads toward the quarters with the others::

Host Computer says:
*MO*: Lieutenant Deidre Maura is on deck 6, Officer's Quarters.

EO_Toros says:
::raises an eyebrow:: Sotovik: Of course not... ::looks over at the TO:: …as long as Mr. Marsland stays  out of the way. This interrogation is private, after all.

Host XO_Linard says:
CSO: That still doesn’t tell me how and why the tractor beam was disabled.

CIV_Xavier says:
Self: You have at least another 30 minutes before you start convulsing, you better get those supplements into your system.

MO_Cha`Dak says:
::exits sickbay and enter TL::

CSO_Storal says:
XO: Aye sir. Computer: Lock out transporter control access to command crew only.

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: Mister Sotovik, Mister Marsland and Mister Toros enter Sotovik's quarters.

MO_Cha`Dak says:
TL: Deck six, officers’ quarters.

EO_Graph says:
CMO: Look!  ::points at the unconscious CEO:: CMO: His pulse is weak, but he’s still alive.

Host Sotovik says:
Computer: Lights to medium...

TO_Marsland says:
Cagney: Take your post outside, along with the security team.

TO_Cagney says:
Marsland: Aye, sir.

EO_Toros says:
Sotovik: I will try to make this brief...

TO_Marsland says:
::follows the EO and Sotovik into the quarters::

SO_Maura says:
::steps out of the shadows as Sotovik and the others enter the room. She grabs Sotovik by the neck and spins him around holding a phaser to his head muttering a few words into her combadge::

EO_Toros says:
::looks over at Marsland:: TO: Would you mind waiting over there?   ::nods towards the far corner of the room::

Host Sotovik says:
EO: Certainly Mister... ::looks at the SO as he gets spun around::

MO_Cha`Dak says:
::exits TL and looks left and right, then, deciding on left, begins searching for SO::

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The door to Mister Sotovik's quarters snaps shut and locks at the SO's command.

TO_Marsland says:
::draws his phaser:: SO: What are you doing? Drop that phaser immediately!

CIV_Xavier says:
XO: Sir, permission to visit the infirmary.

CMO_Naegle says:
::runs to CEO, takes out tricorder:: Graph: His pulse is weak, but I can revive him with this. ::takes out hypospray and presses it to CEO's neck::

TO_Marsland says:
::brings his hand towards his combadge, but doesn't tap it::

SO_Maura says:
TO: I suggest you put that thing away immediately, if not sooner, or the Vulcan gets it!

CEO_Yeung says:
::groans and slowly opens his eyes:: CMO: Ugh ... huh? Doctor?

EO_Toros says:
::drops everything in hand:: SO: You!

CIV_Xavier says:
XO: I feel really weak sir.

Host XO_Linard says:
CIV: Granted... ::pauses and looks at her concerned:: CIV: Ensign are you okay?

CMO_Naegle says:
CEO:  What happened, Jon?

SO_Maura says:
::looks over at Toros and smirks::

MO_Cha`Dak says:
::hears a door close up ahead, and heads for it, not realizing it was Sotovik’s door closing::

CEO_Yeung says:
CMO: What the ... no, Maura!

TO_Marsland says:
::puts his phaser away:: SO: Put away your phaser, now! What the hell do you think you're doing?

EO_Graph says:
::looks worried::

SO_Maura says:
::Looks at Marsland:: TO: Just as soon as I get what I came for!

CMO_Naegle says:
CEO: Maura?  What about Maura?

MO_Cha`Dak says:
::puts two and two together, and gets a bad feeling about who's on the other side of the door::

EO_Toros says:
TO/SO: My argument exactly...

CEO_Yeung says:
::grunts as he tries to get up:: *XO*: Commander! Lieutenant Maura just attacked me, I think she's the one who killed Crapic!

Host XO_Linard says:
::gets up from her chair and slowly paces the bridge::

CIV_Xavier says:
XO: Umm … I’m feeling a bit woozy, but I think I might just need a bite to eat.

TO_Marsland says:
SO: What do you want?

Host Sotovik says:
::breaths deeply:: SO: Lieutenant Maura, what is the meaning of this!

Host XO_Linard says:
CIV: Then go get something to eat... ::hears the CEO::

EO_Toros says:
SO: Which is...?

CIV_Xavier says:
XO: Thank you sir.

CSO_Storal says:
::hears the CEO:: All: What?

CMO_Naegle says:
::takes hold of CEO's hand, and helps him up to a chair::

SO_Maura says:
TO: You see, I need Mister Sotovik here … the information he possesses is quite valuable.

CIV_Xavier says:
::slaves tactical to the flight console again::

TO_Marsland says:
SO: Is it so important to jeopardize these relations, not to mention the lives of others and you’re own, plus your career?

SO_Maura says:
::watches Toros and Marsland closely pressing the muzzle of her phaser tight to Sotovik’s head::

CEO_Yeung says:
::sits down and rubs the side of his head:: CMO: Ow ... doctor, what's been happening?

CIV_Xavier says:
::exits to the TL:: Aloud: Deck six.

TO_Marsland says:
SO: Lieutenant, there's no way out of here. Why don't you just drop your phaser?

SO_Maura says:
::laughs loudly:: TO: You don’t seem to understand … this is my career!

Host XO_Linard says:
*CEO*: Are you Sure? Computer: Location of SO Maura... ::looks to the CSO::

CIV_Xavier says:
::looks at her chronometer:: Self: Better hurry up, Savannah… 

MO_Cha`Dak says:
::begins to deduce that it must be Maura who took the Vasokin from the medical stores without authorization, and if that is the case, then Maura must also be involved in the death of Chief Crapic. Draws a phaser and crouches just outside the door to Sotovik’s quarters::

TO_Marsland says:
SO: You won't make it out of here Lieutenant, I guarantee you that.

CIV_Xavier says:
::runs out of the TL and heads for her quarters::

SO_Maura says:
TO: Don’t count on it 

CEO_Yeung says:
*XO*: Positive. She knocked me out during our questioning on the death of Chief Crapic.

EO_Toros says:
SO: What are you going to do?   ::glances over at the Sotovik for a bit::

Host Computer says:
*XO*: Lieutenant Deidre Maura is on Deck 6, Officers Quarters.

CMO_Naegle says:
CEO:  So far?  We've just discovered that Maura was the last one that had access to the stores of Vasokin, which is what killed Crapic.

SO_Maura says:
::tries to summon the Bird of Prey::

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The Bird of Prey shifts in position and moves closer to the Apache.

EO_Toros says:
:: then shifts his gaze back to the SO, decides to go for it and reaches for his phaser::

Host XO_Linard says:
::nods to the CSO:: CSO: Find her and arrest her.

SO_Maura says:
::sees Toros’ movement out of the corner of her eye and fires on him::

CSO_Storal says:
XO: I’m on my way.  *TO*: Lt. Maura attacked the CEO. Be on guard she may be the one we’re looking for.

CEO_Yeung says:
CMO: Damn, then there's no doubt about it.

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The body of EO Toros flies back against the far wall and collapses tot he ground.

TO_Marsland says:
::looks at the SO:: SO: This won't get you anywhere Lieutenant.

TO_Marsland says:
SO: Can I answer that?

Host Sotovik says:
::hears Mister Marsland's combadge go off::

EO_Toros says:
::gets hit, and collapses to his knees against the wall::

MO_Cha`Dak says:
::hears phaser fire, and tries to open the door::

EO_Toros says:
::groans::

FCO_Powers says:
::double-checks what he thinks he saw:: XO: The Bird of Prey just moved closer, Commander.

TO_Marsland says:
::grabs his phaser, ducks behind the wall::

CMO_Naegle says:
CEO:  You're right.  I hope that they can catch her.

SO_Maura says:
::grabs the PADD from Sotovik and spins him around shoving him away and shooting him as she does::

CSO_Storal says:
::enters the TL:: TL: Deck six…

TO_Marsland says:
*CSO*: We have a problem here! Need Security now!

Host XO_Linard says:
::looks to the FCO:: FCO: Raise shields ... and place them on a rotating frequency.

CIV_Xavier says:
::thinks she hears phaser fire::

SO_Maura says:
::tries to summon the Bird of Prey::

Host XO_Linard says:
FCO: I don't want anyone transporting off this ship!

TO_Marsland says:
::sneaks around the wall, and fires at the SO::

TO_Marsland says:
::drops to the floor hiding behind furniture::

FCO_Powers says:
::does as the XO says::

SO_Maura says:
::dives to the floor as Marsland shot hits her in the shoulder::

FCO_Powers says:
XO: Yes sir.

CIV_Xavier says:
::hears a thud and joins Cha`Dak at the door to Sotovik’s quarters::

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The computer on the Bird of Prey initiates a transport and the SO and Sotovik begin to dematerialize….

CSO_Storal says:
*TO*: Acknowledged. *SEC*: Security to Deck six VIP Quarters.

TO_Marsland says:
*Bridge*: Stop that transport!!!

Host Jafo says:
ACTION ... then rematerialize in Sotovik's quarters, as the shields stop them from beaming.

FCO_Powers says:
::tries to stop transport::

TO_Marsland says:
::fires at the SO, again::

Host XO_Linard says:
FCO: Keep an eye on that Bird of Prey ... don't let it try and initiate transport either.

CSO_Storal says:
::exits the TL and runs to Sotovik's quarters::

FCO_Powers says:
XO: Yes sir.

MO_Cha`Dak says:
Computer: Computer open this door, medical override K’hora Alpha zero two.

Host Sotovik says:
::reels and collapses back on the floor gasping and grabbing at his chest::

Host Computer says:
*MO*: Unable to comply … you do not have the necessary clearance to remove the lockout on VIP Quarters.

CIV_Xavier says:
::pulls out a little knife from her left leg::

SO_Maura says:
::collapses back in pain writhing on the floor behind a couch::

FCO_Powers says:
::monitors Bird of Prey::

Host XO_Linard says:
*CSO*: Status report?

CIV_Xavier says:
*TO*: On my way…

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: Sensors indicate a self-destruct in progress on the Bird of Prey...

TO_Marsland says:

CIV_Xavier says:
::feels really weak::

TO_Marsland says:
Sotovik: Stay down.

Host Sotovik says:
::grabs onto Mister Marsland’s arm and pulls him down towards him:: TO: Tom...

FCO_Powers says:
XO: The Bird of Prey is going to self-destruct…

CSO_Storal says:
*XO*: I’ve arrived at Mr. Sotovik's quarters. ::nods to Ensign Xavier and Lieutenant Cha`Dak outside the door::

Host XO_Linard says:
FCO: Move us and take us out of here ... warp 6.

TO_Marsland says:
::bends down:: Sotovik: What is it?

EO_Toros says:
::sees the Science Officer collapse behind the couch and then lets out a slight grins before closing his eyes forever … his last thoughts are of Armen::

CSO_Storal says:
MO: What’s going on?

FCO_Powers says:
::moves the ship away at warp 6::

MO_Cha`Dak says:
::nods to CSO::

Host Sotovik says:
::gasps as the green blood from his chest gurgles up:: TO: Tom ... ::reaches up and grasps Marsland's cheek with three fingers::

MO_Cha`Dak says:
CSO: Phaser fire from inside Sotovik’s quarters, sir ... Maura is in there, along with Marsland and Asadourian.

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The door refuses to budge for Mister Cha`Dak and the others.

TO_Marsland says:
*Sickbay*: Medical emergency, Deck 6. Toros and Sotovik are hurt!

Host Sotovik says:
::gasps out:: TO: My mind to your mind.... ::gasps:: ...my thought to your thoughts...

MO_Cha`Dak says:
::nods to CIV::

CIV_Xavier says:
MO: Let me Help… ::kicks the door::

CIV_Xavier says:
::kicks it again::

CMO_Naegle says:
*MO*: Dr. Cha`Dak are you anywhere near Sotovik's quarters?

MO_Cha`Dak says:
CSO: Not even my medical overrides are working!

TO_Marsland says:
::bends down to Sotovik, and lets him initiate the meld::

Host Sotovik says:
::grasps Marsland's face tightly:: TO: Remember...

SO_Maura says:
::sits up slowly and aims her phaser carefully, fires at Marsland::

CIV_Xavier says:
::looks for the manual override::

CIV_Xavier says:
::slams her knife into the door trying to pry it open::

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The door to Sotovik's quarters finally releases and opens for the Medical Team ... at the same time, Maura's phaser blast hits both Marsland and Sotovik killing Sotovik and throwing Marsland back against the wall violently breaking their mind meld.

MO_Cha`Dak says:
::bursts into Sotovik’s quarters::

CSO_Storal says:
:: enters the room and looks around::

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The panel on the Bird of Prey sparks and sputters surging and exploding panel after panel before sputtering out.

CIV_Xavier says:
::runs in after the MO and lunges at the SO with her knife at the ready::

Host XO_Linard says:
::paces on the bridge nervously waiting to find out what's going on::

MO_Cha`Dak says:
::ducks for cover, aiming at the SO::

CMO_Naegle says:
::waits in main engineering for an answer from her MO::

FCO_Powers says:
Self: I was hoping to get a cloaking devise off that ship.

TO_Marsland says:
::feels Sotovik's thoughts entering his mind::

MO_Cha`Dak says:
::remains under cover:: *CMO*: Dr, we need you here NOW!

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: Ensign Xavier is able to restrain Science Officer Maura briefly as her chest heaves trying to take in her last breaths. She collapses back again and dies.
