Star Trek: Apache - Episode #10
Week # 10
Mission: "Resurrection"

Host Jafo says:
Lieutenant Commander Yeung's away team has finally been returned to the Apache. CEO Yeung and his team have given Captain Kargan, and the IKS Pagh, as much aide as possible repairing their ship's damage. Commander Klag, Kargan's first officer, has also been returned to his ship and the Pagh has left for Klingon space.

Host Jafo says:
The USS Apache has returned to orbit around Tellas IV, away teams have returned to the surface to search for survivors from the Romulan orbital bombardment. What was once a thriving colony has been largely reduced to rubble. It is hoped that some answers may yet remain in the rubble of Tellas IV.

XO_Linard says:
@COM: CSO: Understood Commander, keep us posted.

TO_Knoxville says:
@::retrieves his phaser from Xavier and continues to keep watch on the AT::

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: As the away team approaches the encampment they begin to notice large puddles of the silver blood. These puddles are different than the pools, because they lay on top of the ground rather than below the surface.

FCO_Marsland says:
::brings up the navigational display and sets course lays in a course for Starbase 366::

JAG_Vekh says:
Self: I'd better get to the bridge to follow up the events.

CSO_Storal says:
::scans the new pool::

CEO_Yeung says:
EO: Ensign, let's head off to deflector control and repair it as much as we can.

SO_Hammond says:
::receives data from the CMO and start to go over it::

CIV_Xavier says:
@::looks at the replicated phaser::

CMO_Naegle says:
*SO*: You should be receiving the data I've collected so far, Lieutenant.

EO_Powers says:
CEO: Aye sir.

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The CSO's scans reveal the same molecular makeup in this silver blood as in the other pools ... except these puddles lack the protein molecules so common among the pools below the surface.

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

JAG_Vekh says:
::enters the Bridge and briefly nods to the XO::

CEO_Yeung says:

*CMO*: I just received it now, thank you doctor.  I'll send you down what I have.

CIV_Xavier says:
@::follows the CSO::

CEO_Yeung says:
::heads off to deflector control::

FCO_Marsland says:
*CMO*: Will you be requiring my assistance in Sickbay later, Doctor?

CSO_Storal says:
@COM: Apache: I’ve found a new pool, but it’s lacking the protein molecules we’ve found elsewhere. I’m forwarding the findings to you.

Sonja_Davore says:
TO: No unusual activities has been detected... ::pause:: …yet.

JAG_Vekh says:
XO: Commander, I've just finished my report to Sector Command. I’d like to follow up the events in it with you.

JAG_Vekh says:
XO: Is there any way I can help?

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::steps out of her ready room onto the bridge:: FCO:  Lieutenant, slave OPS to your console and contact Deep Space 4 to request a transport for the Breen survivors, Reg and Ensign Xavier's clone.

TO_Cha`Dak says:
::nods in understanding::

CSO_Storal says:
@AT: Stay clear of these puddles.

CMO_Naegle says:
*SO*: Thank you.  I'll look it over.

FCO_Marsland says:
CO: Aye sir.

TO_Cha`Dak says:
CO: Sir, shall I escort Reg from the brig to his quarters? He has been there a while now.

SO_Hammond says:
::sends the doctor the data he has::

CEO_Yeung says:
::enters deflector control and lays down his kit, gets his tools out::

XO_Linard says:
COM: CSO: Acknowledged. SO: Mister Hammond, prepare to receive Commander Storal's findings.

FCO_Marsland says:
::transfers command control of OPS to the helm console::

JAG_Vekh says:
::standing in the back of the Bridge he nods to the Captain as she comes in::

CIV_Xavier says:
@::looks around::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
TO:  Yes Mister Cha`Dak, let him join his comrades.

SO_Hammond says:
XO: Aye sir. ::prepares to receive data from the CSO::

CMO_Naegle says:
*FCO*: Not at the present time, Mister Marsland.  I'll let you know if your assistance is needed.

TO_Cha`Dak says:
::nods then turns to Sonja::

Sonja_Davore says:
::feels Cha`Dak’s eyes on her and turns to look at him::

CSO_Storal says:
@::forwards tricorder data to the Apache::

Sonja_Davore says:
::for some reason she automatically stands at attention::

CSO_Storal says:
@CIV: Have you found any survivors yet?

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::returns Mister Vekh's nod:: JAG: Commander, how is your research going?

TO_Cha`Dak says:
Sonja Davore: Please go directly to the brig and release Reg from his confinement. Then show him to the guest quarters where the Breen are staying. 

EO_Powers says:
::gets to work::

FCO_Marsland says:
COMM: DS4: This is the USS Apache. We are requesting a transport to pick up a clone of one of our crew and for the Breen survivors. When is this possible?

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The away team begins to approach the center of the encampment near where the scattering field originated. Almost all the buildings in the area have been destroyed and reduced to rubble ... save a small concrete bunker nearby.

CMO_Naegle says:
::receives the data from science and compares it to her own::

TO_Cha`Dak says:
Sonja Davore: If you have any problems, contact me.

Sonja_Davore says:
::gulps:: TO: Aye sir.

FCO_Marsland says:
*CMO*: Aye sir, Marsland out.

JAG_Vekh says:
CO: It is going quite well Captain. I just filed a report on my initial findings

CIV_Xavier says:
@CSO: Sir, this place looks wiped out.

CEO_Yeung says:
::turns to EO:: EO: Most of the subspace fields coils are still functional. However, several of them have burned out and will need replacing.

XO_Linard says:
::smiles:: Vekh: If you wish you can help with the findings of our away team.

SO_Hammond says:
::begins to look over the data sent by the CSO:: Self: Interesting…

TO_Knoxville says:
@::sees the tactical advantage of the bunker and stores the information for later reference::

JAG_Vekh says:
CO: I also suggested the Apache remain in the area until the involvement of the Romulans can be clarified.

Sonja_Davore says:
::goes to the TL and steps into it:: TL: Brig.

FCO_Marsland says:
::waits for a response from Deep Space 4::

TO_Knoxville says:
@::is sickened by the devastation::

CSO_Storal says:
@CIV: Just what a few well-placed strikes can do.... ::steps over another puddle::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
JAG:  Good. If you have any further questions about what has happened please feel free to ask.

Host Deep Space Four says:
COM: Apache: The transport vessel Hawkins will rendezvous with you shortly to transport your prisoners.

EO_Powers says:
CEO: Do we have any with us?

JAG_Vekh says:
CO: Be sure that I will, Captain. In the mean time is there anyway that I can help?

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
JAG: Commander, it is refreshing that your interpretation meets with our understanding of the situation as well.

CIV_Xavier says:
@::mutters:: Self: Gone to hell in a hand basket.

FCO_Marsland says:
COMM: DS4: Thank you, Apache out.

CEO_Yeung says:
EO: Yes, there are some spares in that container. ::points at a large container::

SO_Hammond says:
::notes the missing protein molecules::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
JAG:  I believe Commander Linard has something for you.  XO:  Didn't you, Commander?

CMO_Naegle says:
::thinking:: Self: Deuterium, hydrogen sulfate, dichromate’s, and protein molecules … and Hammond said something about Romulans.  I don't get it.

Sonja_Davore says:
::arrives on the brig's deck and walks down the corridor and turns into the appropriate room::

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: Knoxville hears a mournful cry from the direction of the concrete bunker.

FCO_Marsland says:
CO/XO: The transport ship Hawkins will be rendezvousing with us shortly to provide transport, sir.

TO_Knoxville says:
@::turns towards the sound:: CSO: Sir!

JAG_Vekh says:
CO: Indeed, Captain, it seems that you’re … resistance … in leaving the area paid off. Otherwise the Romulan connection might not have been found out.

EO_Powers says:
::opens one of the containers::

CIV_Xavier says:
@::hears the cry::

Sonja_Davore says:
::walks smack into the door::

CSO_Storal says:
@TO: What is it?

CIV_Xavier says:
@::looks over at the bunker::

Sonja_Davore says:
::holds her nose as it hurts and looks at the door:: Self: Oops … wrong turn.

JAG_Vekh says:
CO: Indeed? ::turns to the XO: XO: And what would that be?

Host Ekin says:
@::waves his hand trying to get the Away Teams attention::

CEO_Yeung says:
::opens up a panel, and scans the interior::

CIV_Xavier says:
@::jumps from dry spot to dry spot reaching the bunker::

SO_Hammond says:
*CMO*: I have some more data sent from the away team.  I'm sending it down to you now.  ::sends down the data::

TO_Knoxville says:
@::points with his phaser-rifle towards the bunker::

Sonja_Davore says:
::walks down the corridor a bit more and then turns into the real brig:: Self: Ah ha!  There we are.

CSO_Storal says:
@COM: Apache: Could it be plausible that the puddles are clones?

CIV_Xavier says:
@::astonished:: Ekin: You!

CEO_Yeung says:
::locates the burnt out coils and begins to take them out::

CMO_Naegle says:
*SO*: Aye Lieutenant, I'm receiving it now.

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: As the Away Team comes upon the body of Ekin they notice that he is laying in one of the many puddles of the "silver blood". His lower extremities are completely hidden by the liquid and his cloak is torn in many locations.

TO_Knoxville says:
@::tries to catch up with Xavier::

CMO_Naegle says:
::looks at the data and takes a second look::

Sonja_Davore says:
::greets TO Verall:: Verall: Hello, we meet again.  Lieutenant Cha`Dak asked me to escort Mister Reg to the Breen quarters.

XO_Linard says:
::smiles:: JAG: Well, as you know we're still trying to find out about Romulan involvement.

TO_Knoxville says:
@::visually scans the immediate area for danger::

Host Ekin says:
@All: I - I don't know what happened...

CIV_Xavier says:
@::looks at the other puddles::

TO_Verall says:
Sonja: All by yourself?

CSO_Storal says:
@::kneels down next to Ekin:: Ekin: Romulans bombarded the planet from orbit.

TO_Cha`Dak says:
::running scans trying to locate the Romulan Warbird’s::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::starts toward the TL:: XO:  You have the bridge.

XO_Linard says:
JAG: I was thinking you could work with Mister Hammond in helping us figure this out.

JAG_Vekh says:
XO: Yes, I found their involvement the most unexplainable piece of this puzzle.

CIV_Xavier says:
@::brings out a medical tricorder from her kit and scans Ekin::

CEO_Yeung says:
::while taking out the coils:: EO: So, Powers, did you rest well after getting back to the Apache?

CMO_Naegle says:
*SO*:  I've noticed that the puddles they've encountered are missing the protein.  Have they any idea why?

Host Ekin says:
@::gasps for breath:: CSO: Why...

Sonja_Davore says:
::nods:: Verall: Well ... although I don’t' think I would mind the help... ::eyes Reg::

CSO_Storal says:
@CIV: See what you can do to help him.

FCO_Marsland says:
::reenters his transporter lock on the Away Team::

XO_Linard says:
::heads to science:: SO: What have you come up with so far?

JAG_Vekh says:
::nods in appreciation and anticipation to have something to do:: XO: That would be perfect, Commander.

CIV_Xavier says:
@CSO: Aye Commander.

SO_Hammond says:
*CMO*: Not that I know of, Doctor.

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: Xavier's scans reveal that Ekin’s body is in a state of rapid flux and appears to be liquefying on the cellular level.

TO_Verall says:
Sonja: Very well then. ::takes his phaser and sets it on stun::

CMO_Naegle says:
*SO*: Okay, keep me posted.

CSO_Storal says:
@Ekin: Try not to talk ... we don’t know yet, but we believe that it has to do with the silver liquid that is everywhere here.

TO_Verall says:
::holds the phaser at Reg and then taps the console with his other hand releasing the forcefield::

CIV_Xavier says:
@CSO: Sir, he’s literally being liquefied at the cellular level.

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: Ekin lies only a few feet from a heavy metal door that seems to lead into the bunker.

XO_Linard says:
JAG: Well their attack has been the most puzzling.  Commander Klag, of the IKS Pagh, implied they were involved as well.

SO_Hammond says:
XO: Well sir, the puddles they scanned on the planet are missing the protein molecule.  Why, I have no idea at the moment but I'm checking on it.

EO_Powers says:
CEO: When I returned I had an intense pain in my head. I fell unconscious and the next thing I knew I was back in my quarters. I've rested since then so yeah… ::smiles::

CIV_Xavier says:
@CSO: Sir, he's a duplicate.

CSO_Storal says:
@TO: Mister Knoxville, check out the bunker for more survivors.

FCO_Marsland says:
XO: Sir, I still have a solid lock on the away team and have set course for Deep Space 4.

TO_Knoxville says:
@CSO: Aye sir.

CSO_Storal says:
@CIV: Can you stabilize the deterioration?

TO_Knoxville says:
@::moves towards the metal door nearby and opens it shining the light attached to his phaser rifle inside::

Host Ekin says:
@::begins to go into convulsions gasping and clutching at his throat ... as he does, his hand liquefies and joins the liquid of the puddle he is resting in.

JAG_Vekh says:
::approaches the SO:: SO: Greetings Mister Hammond. Do you mind if I try and help out?

Sonja_Davore says:
::chews her lips nervously as the forcefield lowers:: Reg: I'm taking you to the quarters we have assigned to your Breen friends. Kindly follow me. ::looks over at Verall::

CMO_Naegle says:
::thinks she needs to be up on the bridge and heads out of the door of sickbay::

CIV_Xavier says:
@::places the replicated phaser in the liquefied section of Ekin::

XO_Linard says:
::nods:: SO: Very well, then keep on it. Mister Vekh here will be working with you as well ... perhaps between the two of you we can figure this out quicker.

TO_Verall says:
Sonja: Go on ... I got your back covered.

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: As Knoxville opens the door he's greeted by rows and rows of computer and data terminals.

SO_Hammond says:
XO: I have someone trying to get a complete breakdown of the liquid to see how it works.

CSO_Storal says:
@CIV: What are you doing?

CMO_Naegle says:
::walks into the turbolift:: TL: Bridge.

CIV_Xavier says:
@CSO: We need more of the Silver Blood with the proteins still intact.

CEO_Yeung says:
::looks with concern:: EO: Have you been to sickbay about it?

Sonja_Davore says:
::turns and marches out of the Brig keeping three paces ahead of Reg::

CMO_Naegle says:
::feels a slight tug as the turbolift starts::

JAG_Vekh says:
::turns from the science consoles:: XO: If that is so, they should have been around for far longer than we thought … much earlier than the Apache's arrival itself.

SO_Hammond says:
XO: Aye sir.

TO_Knoxville says:
@::studies the data readouts momentarily before searching further into the bunker::

XO_Linard says:
SO: Good, let me know what they come up with.

CSO_Storal says:
@:: looks for a pool::

CIV_Xavier says:
@::looks to see if Ekin has absorbed the duplicate phaser::

Host Reg says:
::follows Sonja::

TO_Verall says:
::follows Reg three paces behind::

SO_Hammond says:
XO: Will do, sir.

CMO_Naegle says:
::feels the turbolift stop and the doors open to the bridge::

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The replicated phaser passes through Ekin. It is neither absorbed nor duplicated.

XO_Linard says:
::nods to Vekh:: JAG: Of course, I agree.

CSO_Storal says:
@CIV: We need to get him to a pool.

JAG_Vekh says:
::takes a console besides the SO and starts following up the data:: Self: Hmm, almost like when I was CSO at Arcadia.

Sonja_Davore says:
::stops at the TL and taps the button::

CIV_Xavier says:
@::mutters curses, he might need unused "silver blood"::

CMO_Naegle says:
::walks out on to the bridge and sees SO Hammond and JAG Vekh::

TO_Knoxville says:
@::turns a corner in the bunker and jumps as he sees a spare uniform hanging up:: Self: Calm down, Ensign.

EO_Powers says:
CEO: I don't know, the last thing I remember before I woke in my quarters was being in a turbo lift heading for sickbay. I assume so.

JAG_Vekh says:
XO: In extension, they might have known of the Silver Blood as well. And that would be the reason they are here.

Host Ekin says:
@::gasps one last time before his body collapses back and his arms fall to his sides ... his body turns silvery and changes in appearance until no part of him can be distinguished from the puddle.

FCO_Marsland says:
::hears the swish of the doors and turns to see Janet walk onto the bridge, wonders if something happened::

CIV_Xavier says:
@::picks up Ekin and starts to sprint towards the silver ocean::

Sonja_Davore says:
::looks at Reg nervously as they wait for the TL::

CIV_Xavier says:
@CSO: I know where I might find some.

Host Reg says:
Sonja: You don't trust me... ::sly grin::

CSO_Storal says:
@COM: Apache: We have confirmation; the puddles seem to be what is left of the colonists. We have found a survivor.  Err … make that a victim.

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: Xavier's arms are quickly covered with nothing but liquid metal ... dripping down her uniform and pants.

CSO_Storal says:
@CIV: I don’t think it would matter now.

CEO_Yeung says:
EO: Hmm … you're feeling all right now?

XO_Linard says:
::nods:: JAG: They could have been trying to hide something as well.

CSO_Storal says:
@TO: Mister Knoxville, report in.

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: Knoxville comes across a humanoid slumped face down at a console.

EO_Powers says:
CEO: Fine, thank you sir.

TO_Knoxville says:
@*CSO*: Standby, sir.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::steps off the TL and walks to Fort Apache::

Sonja_Davore says:
::chews lower lip:: Reg: I never said that... ::turns to see the TL's door slide open and enters::

CMO_Naegle says:
::nods to the FCO:: SO: Lieutenant Hammond, I got frustrated down there in Sickbay. I just had to be up here where the action is.

SO_Hammond says:
Self: I'm missing something that’s right in front of me … but what?

TO_Knoxville says:
@::pulls the slumped form away from the console with one hand, very carefully::

TO_Verall says:
::nudges Reg's back with the phaser forcing him to go into the TL::

JAG_Vekh says:
::reads computer display:: SO: The puddles on the surface seem to lack the protein molecules from the 'standard' silver blood, correct?

FCO_Marsland says:
::winks at Janet trying to catch her eye, then turns back to his console::

CSO_Storal says:
@CIV: How many people were here when you arrived last?

TO_Knoxville says:
@::studies the slumped form::

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: Green blood shines on Knoxville's hand as he pulls the body away from the console.

XO_Linard says:
COM: CSO: Never mind, Commander?

CMO_Naegle says:
SO: Have you had any luck?

CEO_Yeung says:
EO: All right, but after we fix this here you go to sickbay and get checked out.

Host Reg says:
::grins:: Sonja: Uh huh ... I'm not such a bad guy. You just got to get to know me.

CIV_Xavier says:
@::tries to remember::

TO_Knoxville says:
@::looks at his hands, noting the green blood::

FCO_Marsland says:
::checks the lifesigns of the AT::

TO_Knoxville says:
@Self: Romulans.

CIV_Xavier says:
@CSO: Hold on, let me try and remember…

JAG_Vekh says:
::notices the CMO around and greets her like the others::

TO_Knoxville says:
@::taps combadge::

SO_Hammond says:
::looks up at the doctor:: CMO: I understand that doc.  JAG: I've noticed that as well, but how did it get removed?

EO_Powers says:
CEO: Yes sir, I will sir.

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: USS Hawkins appears on long-range sensors and hails the Apache.

TO_Knoxville says:
@*CSO*: Sir, you better get in here.

CMO_Naegle says:
::looks at Tom as if to say "later"::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::enters Fort Apache and walks over to a corner table near the bar::

CSO_Storal says:
@COM: Apache: We found a clone ... but his genetic make up destabilized and he returned to his natural state. ::hears the TO:: COM: Apache: Stand by Apache.

CSO_Storal says:
@*TO*: On my way.

CIV_Xavier says:
@CSO: Sir, possibly over a couple hundred.

TO_Knoxville says:
@::takes a look at the console the Romulan was accessing::

CMO_Naegle says:
SO/JAG: I assume you are talking about the missing protein, Gentlemen?

FCO_Marsland says:
::catches Janet's signal and grins before going back to work:: Self: The sooner this is over, the sooner...

CSO_Storal says:
@CIV: Can you give a rough estimate Mister Xavier?

Sonja_Davore says:
TL: Deck 14.

XO_Linard says:
::hears the CSO's comm and wonders what the away team has found::

JAG_Vekh says:
SO: Do we have sensor logs from the Romulan attack? Could their disruptors have been set to specifically destroy the proteins?

CEO_Yeung says:
::nods then ducks into the wall:: EO: All right, bring that new coil here and help me install it.

CSO_Storal says:
@::enters the bunker and looks inside:: TO: What is it?

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The body of the Romulan sits at his station. It appears to be a communications and power distribution station for the scattering field and interplanetary communications.

TO_Knoxville says:
@CSO: Over here, Commander…

CIV_Xavier says:
@CSO: I would say roughly one regiments worth.

OPS_Lowell says:
::walks onto the bridge:: XO: Sorry I am late, sir.

JAG_Vekh says:
CMO: Indeed, we were just trying to determine how it got removed from the puddles.

SO_Hammond says:
CMO: Yes we are. JAG: That I haven't checked yet sir, gives me somewhere to start.

CIV_Xavier says:
@::walks over to the consoles::

Host Reg says:
Sonja: Miss, we all have to make a living... ::shrugs and glances over at Verall next to him:: …one way or the other.

OPS_Lowell says:
COM: AT: Acknowledged Commander.

XO_Linard says:
::turns and greets Mister Lowell glancing at the chronometer:: OPS: A late night Lieutenant?

CIV_Xavier says:
@::starts reading over the console memorizing what she sees::

EO_Powers says:
::takes the coil to the CEO:: CEO: Here you go, sir.

TO_Cha`Dak says:
::runs diagnostics on shield and weapons systems::

OPS_Lowell says:
::grins:: XO: Something like that…

CSO_Storal says:
@::nods at the CIV and walks over and sees the Romulan:: TO: Is he alive?

JAG_Vekh says:
CMO/SO: This may be an indication that the protein molecules would hold the shape-shifting properties of the silver blood.

FCO_Marsland says:
::transfers control of Operations back to the OPS Console::

TO_Knoxville says:
@CSO: Afraid not, sir.

XO_Linard says:
::nods to him:: OPS: Take your post...

CMO_Naegle says:
::listens intently to the JAG::

Sonja_Davore says:
::bites her lips from saying something smart and steps off as the TL stops at Deck 14::

JAG_Vekh says:
CMO: How's Ensign Xavier's clone doing? Did you get anything out of her, Doctor?

OPS_Lowell says:
::patches the CSO through to the XO:: XO: I have a Mister Storal on the line? I think he is selling clones or some such thing.

CSO_Storal says:
@::looks around:: TO/CIV: Well it looks like this was their control center … and it confirms my theory.

CIV_Xavier says:
@CSO: This Romulan has been dead for a while sir.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::looks through the window at the planet below and stands slowly moving quickly toward the door and the nearest TL::

EO_Powers says:
::helps the CEO::

SO_Hammond says:
::pulls up data on the Romulan attack on the surface and goes through it::

CEO_Yeung says:
::gets the coil, and puts into place::

FCO_Marsland says:
::hears Lieutenant Lowell and laughs::

TO_Knoxville says:
@CSO: Which theory, Sir?

CEO_Yeung says:
::uses his tools to properly connect the coil::

CIV_Xavier says:
@CSO: Body has been decomposing for quite some time now.

Sonja_Davore says:
::looks over at Reg:: Reg: This way... ::sweeps her hands as she guides him down the endless corridors again::

XO_Linard says:
::raises her eyebrow at OPS:: OPS: Yes, I've already spoken with him on that ... thank you.

CSO_Storal says:
@TO: This was a Romulan experiment...

JAG_Vekh says:
::nods approvingly to the SO:: Computer: Analyze disruptor frequency and compare with Romulan standard type.

OPS_Lowell says:
XO: Aye sir. ::grins::

Host Computer says:
*JAG*: Disruptor frequency is within normal limits for weapons of Romulan origin.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
TL:  Bridge.  ::waits as the lift rises the few decks and the doors open, steps out::

OPS_Lowell says:
FCO: Tom, did you send the communiqués I had ready to transmit?

CSO_Storal says:
@::walks over to the console and tries to access the terminal::

TO_Verall says:
::close behind, ever watchful::

CSO_Storal says:
@CIV/TO: See if there are any more around here.

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The USS Hawkins pulls alongside the Apache and signals they are ready to receive the Breen prisoners.

FCO_Marsland says:
OPS: I sent a communiqué to DS 4 regarding transport of the survivors, but that was all.

Sonja_Davore says:
::stops in front of the quarters containing the Breen and looks at the Security officers there::  SEC: This is Reg.  He is to join his Breen friends ... by order of Lieutenant Cha`Dak.

XO_Linard says:
::sees the CO enter the bridge and nods::

CIV_Xavier says:
@::programs her tricorder to scan for Romulan DNA::

OPS_Lowell says:
FCO: Ahh, you missed the one to SFC. Thanks my friend.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
XO: Have we heard anything from the surface?

CMO_Naegle says:
JAG: Her clone is doing fine, but I might want to keep a closer eye on her.

OPS_Lowell says:
::sends the communiqué to Starfleet Command::

SEC_Kolandi says:
::looks at the TO and Sonja, taps open the door and ushers Reg in::

FCO_Marsland says:
OPS: Sorry about that. ::smiles::

Host Reg says:
::looks back:: Sonja: Till another day.

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The CSO is able to access the last few communications. They seem to suggest that this Romulan had a series of rather terse conversations with Commander Linard and Captain Turnbull. Audio only.

Host Reg says:
::enters the quarters and doesn’t look any happier to be here then he was to be in the brig::

Sonja_Davore says:
::shakes her head:: Verall: That was ... easy enough.  Phew.

OPS_Lowell says:
FCO: Not a problem, just make sure you don't forget your meetings with the good doctor. I am a bit more forgiving than the opposite sex.

CSO_Storal says:
@COM: Apache: Sir Mister Knoxville has found a dead Romulan in what appears to be the control room. I’ve found something in the computer ... stand by to receive.

JAG_Vekh says:
CMO: It would indeed be interesting to determine how one's personality is transferred to the clone.

CEO_Yeung says:
::while replacing another coil:: EO: So, Powers, what do you do in your free time?

XO_Linard says:
CO: Commander Storal reported in with a survivor, but apparently they lost him. According to their findings there are many puddles of this silver blood, but they seem to lack the protein molecules that we have found elsewhere.

CSO_Storal says:
@::transfers communication logs to the tricorder::

Sonja_Davore says:
Verall: I guess I can return to the bridge now. ::smiles over at Verall:: Thanks for your help.

FCO_Marsland says:
OPS: Hey, I never forget those! She'd kill me. ::shuts up noticing that Janet is still on the bridge::

SO_Hammond says:
JAG: Plus a person’s personality … everything about that person.

TO_Verall says:
Sonja: Not a problem.  Now, I think I'm going back to my station too.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
XO:  I see … have they determined the effects of the lack of proteins?

EO_Powers says:
CEO: I usually go to Fort Apache or the holodeck. I find myself just staying in my quarters a bit more now. What do you do, sir?

CMO_Naegle says:
::wishes for a counselor on board:: JAG: I agree.  This clone seems to have all of the characteristics of the "Real" Xavier.  But I wish we still had a counselor on board.

Sonja_Davore says:
::nods and waves goodbye to Verall and reenters the TL:: TL: Bridge ... Deck 1.

OPS_Lowell says:
::laughs heartily at the FCO:: FCO: Curious how a woman can cow a man like no phaser can?

XO_Linard says:
CO: Those puddles are the dead people ... or rather the cloned dead of Tellas IV.

Host USS Hawkins says:
COM: Apache: Apache ... we continue to stand ready to receive your prisoners.

CSO_Storal says:
@COM: Apache: I’ve gained access to the last few communications.  It seems that he had a conversation with you, Captain, and Commander Linard.

OPS_Lowell says:
COM: Hawkins: Stand by for transport.

XO_Linard says:
::looks to OPS:: OPS: Prepare the prisoners and have them transported to the Hawkins.

JAG_Vekh says:
::sighs at the results:: SO: A good point Mister Hammond, it appears that the Romulan attack is unrelated to the proteins destruction.

FCO_Marsland says:
OPS: Indeed...

OPS_Lowell says:
XO: Aye sir. ::initiates Prisoner transport::

CEO_Yeung says:
EO: I spend some time in holodeck too, training with my sparring programs. Or sometimes I pick up a good novel to read either in my quarters or Fort Apache.

Sonja_Davore says:
::returns to the bridge and steps off the TL::

CIV_Xavier says:
@CSO: Sir, seems like he's the only one on the planet, sir.

SO_Hammond says:
JAG/CMO: Well, at least we know that didn't do it.  Question is, now where do we look?

XO_Linard says:
::looks at the CO:: COM:CSO: Acknowledged.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::nods:: XO: Interesting. ::thinks about what has been happening::

Sonja_Davore says:
::returns to tactical two and salutes the TO:: TO: Mission accomplished.

XO_Linard says:
CO: He had a conversation with us?

CSO_Storal says:
@CIV: Collect any intelligence that you can here. We will return to the Apache momentarily.

JAG_Vekh says:
CMO: A Counselor could determine more accurately any discrepancies between both individuals personality.

EO_Powers says:
CEO: Are you reading anything at the moment, sir?

TO_Cha`Dak says:
Sonja: Very good, Cadet. Any problems?

Sonja_Davore says:
::shakes her head:: TO: No, sir.

TO_Knoxville says:
@::turns to see the MO enter the bunker::

JAG_Vekh says:
CMO: I'll make a note about requesting a Counselor be assigned in the next report I make to Command, Doctor.

OPS_Lowell says:
::gets an acknowledgement from the Hawkins that they have received the prisoners:: XO: Transport complete.

CSO_Storal says:
@COM: Apache: We are gathering anything useful. Should we transport the body of the Romulan?

CIV_Xavier says:
@::takes her tricorder and downloads the information from the consoles::

CMO_Naegle says:
SO/JAG: Well, what about the ground on the planet that is not made up of silver blood?  Could that have absorbed the protein?

CMO_Naegle says:
JAG: Thank you Lieutenant, I appreciate that.

OPS_Lowell says:
XO: Sir, the CSO would like to speak with you. ::patches him through to her console::

XO_Linard says:
OPS: Acknowledged Mister Lowell.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
COM: CSO:  What was the recording of that conversation, Commander?

CSO_Storal says:
@CIV: Good work Ensign, you ready?

Sonja_Davore says:
::looks around the bridge:: TO: Did I miss anything?

CIV_Xavier says:
@::still can't get used to being called an ensign::

CIV_Xavier says:
@::smirks:: CSO: Aye sir.

SO_Hammond says:
CMO: I don't think so doctor.  I saw the liquid pop up from the ground.

TO_Cha`Dak says:
Sonja: No, nothing yet.

JAG_Vekh says:
CMO: You're welcome Doctor. SO: The only thing I can think about is that the radiation from the attack caused the protein's destruction.

CSO_Storal says:
COM: Apache: We’ve downloaded the conversation into the tricorder. It was a series of rather terse conversation with you and the XO.

XO_Linard says:
COM: CSO: That might be a good idea, Commander. It may give us a better idea on what we are dealing with. I'll inform Doctor Naegle.

CIV_Xavier says:
@CSO: Sir, should we leave him for the bugs? ::looks over at the dead Romulan::

CMO_Naegle says:
SO: Just a thought.

JAG_Vekh says:
CMO/SO: …and from that the loss of its shape-shifting abilities.

XO_Linard says:
::brow furrows:: CO: Okay, now I'm really curious...

TO_Knoxville says:
@::chuckles at Xavier’s comment::

OPS_Lowell says:
::listens with interest to the communication from the surface::

CSO_Storal says:
@CIV: We’re going to bring him with us, Ensign.

JAG_Vekh says:
CMO/SO: Now a question remains; how the Romulans knew of the silver blood and most importantly why would they wish to wipe it out.

CMO_Naegle says:
JAG: Which would cause the bodies to dissolve?

TO_Knoxville says:
@::turns to the MO::

XO_Linard says:
CMO: Standby to receive transport of a Romulan body from the surface. A full autopsy will be needed immediately, Doctor.

CSO_Storal says:
@COM: Apache: We’ve concluded our investigation ... four to beam up.

TO_Knoxville says:
@MO: I thought you'd gotten lost.

CEO_Yeung says:
::fixes up another coil:: EO: Right now, I'm reading an old Earth fantasy novel. Very interesting.

JAG_Vekh says:
::continues going through reports with no success::

CIV_Xavier says:
@Self: Not my Idea of a party but … aye, aye, sir.

Sonja_Davore says:
::nods:: TO: Okay. ::returns to her duty at her station::

CMO_Naegle says:
XO: Aye sir.

JAG_Vekh says:
CMO: My thoughts exactly, Doctor.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::nods thoughtfully at the XO::  XO: Unless the Romulan was the one we were talking to about remaining in Tellanite space and transporting the away team from the surface ... I haven't a clue what this would be about.

OPS_Lowell says:
::initiates transport on the away team::

XO_Linard says:
COM: CSO: Acknowledged Commander. ::nods to OPS to energize when ready::

CIV_Xavier says:
@::wonders about her duplicate::

EO_Powers says:
::nods while working::

TO_Knoxville says:
::materializes in transporter room one::

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The Away Team is transported back to the Apache.

CMO_Naegle says:
JAG/SO: Well, I must go back to sickbay now.  I've been summoned.

CIV_Xavier says:
::looks around the transporter room::

SO_Hammond says:
JAG/CMO: It can be very useful to get information without alerting anyone.

CSO_Storal says:
TO: Bring the body to sickbay.

XO_Linard says:
CO: Yes, he could be the one that was trying to get us to stay away. I thought it was peculiar.

CSO_Storal says:
CIV: May I have the tricorder?

TO_Knoxville says:
CSO: Aye sir.

OPS_Lowell says:
CO/XO: The conversation that the away team found is the one of the Colony Representative telling Commander Linard to go away.

CMO_Naegle says:
::turns to walk back to the turbolift::

TO_Knoxville says:
MO: Could you help me with him? ::points at the Romulan body::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
XO:  I think we all did at the time.

FCO_Marsland says:
::waits to hit the little button that will send the Apache to warp::

CIV_Xavier says:
CSO: Why not. ::hands over the tricorder::

JAG_Vekh says:
::nods to the departing CMO and turns his attention back to the SO and their work::

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The Hawkins turns and heads back towards DS 4.

XO_Linard says:
CO: Of course ... they were quite adamant about it.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::nods at the OPS officer:: XO: You have the bridge, I'm going to join Commander Storal and Doctor Naegle in sickbay.

CMO_Naegle says:
::Goes into the TL:: TL: Deck Nine.

CSO_Storal says:
::takes the tricorder:: CIV: See what you can do to assist the CMO with him. She will need your sensor data.

XO_Linard says:
CO: Understood.

CSO_Storal says:
*CO*: Sir, I’m on my way to the bridge. :: exits the Transporter Room and heads to the bridge::

CEO_Yeung says:
::looks about:: EO: Looks like we've replaced all the ones that we can right now.

CMO_Naegle says:
::runs into sickbay to make it ready::

TO_Knoxville says:
::lifts the Romulan from under the arms but cannot lift the other end without the help of the MO::

OPS_Lowell says:
CO: Sir, the Hawkins has left the system.

CEO_Yeung says:
EO: Come on out and I'll run a diagnostic.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::nods:: XO:  Exactly.  ::stands to leave::  XO: Contact Starfleet Command and let them know that the away teams investigation is complete. Suggest that they send a research team from the Wynox facility to further study the planet.  ::walks to the TL:: OPS:  Thank you Lieutenant.

SO_Hammond says:
JAG: The pool under the surface still has the protein intact, so it would appear that the attack did have something to do with the missing protein.

OPS_Lowell says:
CO: Aye sir.

EO_Powers says:
CEO: Yes sir. ::walks out and stands next to CEO Yeung::

CSO_Storal says:
::exits the TL and walks over to the XO:: XO: Sir, here is the conversation. ::hands her the tricorder::

JAG_Vekh says:
::turns to the center of the bridge:: XO: Commander, our findings so far only suggest that the protein molecules on the silver blood are the factor that allows it to shape shift.

CEO_Yeung says:
::walks over to a console and begins running a diagnostic program::

XO_Linard says:
CO: Aye sir. ::prepares the communiqué to Starfleet::

JAG_Vekh says:
SO: If you think of these proteins as the silver blood's ... vital energy ... then the attack could have 'killed' it.

OPS_Lowell says:
CSO: Glad you made it back, sir.

MO_Sarel says:
::helps TO with the Romulan::

XO_Linard says:
::takes the PADD from the CSO:: CSO: Thank you ... I take it you found everything you needed to know?

TO_Cha`Dak says:
::scans long-range sensors::

TO_Knoxville says:
::helps Sarel carry the Romulan to sickbay::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::nearly bumps into the CSO as he steps off the TL::  CSO:  Thank you Commander, I was just on my way to sickbay but it looks like you saved me the trip.

CSO_Storal says:
::nods at OPS::  XO: Yes sir ... the presence of the Romulan confirms my theory of an experiment being conducted by the Romulans here, on Tellas IV.

OPS_Lowell says:
FCO: Tom, you ready to take this thing from full stop to warp 6 in less than 25 seconds?

TO_Knoxville says:
::enters sickbay carrying the Romulan:: CMO: Where do you want him?

MO_Sarel says:
TO: Sorry for not being around much, I kind of got lost among the rubble on the planet.

CEO_Yeung says:
::checks results from the diagnostic:: EO: Looks like our replacements are online and working, Ensign. Good work to us both.

XO_Linard says:
JAG/SO: Good work...

FCO_Marsland says:
::grins @ OPS:: I could take it to warp 9 in under 25 seconds!

TO_Knoxville says:
MO: No problem, you just need to remember to stay close at all times.

SO_Hammond says:
JAG: Yeah, and that would explain why it's still in the pool underground.  I'm curious how long the stuff will last without being "killed".

JAG_Vekh says:
::pays attention to the CSO's statement:: Self: It could be. It would be like the Romulans to try to cover up their experiments this way.

OPS_Lowell says:
FCO: Without plastering us on the bulkhead?

XO_Linard says:
CSO: One that they tried to destroy the evidence of...

CMO_Naegle says:
::points to nearest biobed:: Knoxville: Put him over there!

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::nods as she listens to the CSO's report:: 

FCO_Marsland says:
OPS: Well ... okay, warp 8 then!

TO_Knoxville says:
::places the Romulan on the biobed indicated::

CSO_Storal says:
XO/JAG: There is no could be about it, it was.

EO_Powers says:
CEO: Yes sir. Do you want me to report to sickbay now, sir?

OPS_Lowell says:
::laughs at the FCO::

MO_Sarel says:
TO: Yes, I thought I was ... but next thing I know I was lost.

CMO_Naegle says:
::puts diagnostic cover over the Romulan and begins working::

OPS_Lowell says:
FCO: Ever buzzed a starbase?

CSO_Storal says:
All: It also appears that everyone on the surface was a clone.

CMO_Naegle says:
MO: Sarel, would you assist me with this please?

Sonja_Davore says:
::keeps her eyes on her console but her ears are tuned to the CSO's voice::

OPS_Lowell says:
::grins wolfishly::

TO_Knoxville says:
::stands back allowing the Doctor to work::

XO_Linard says:
::sighs heavily::

CEO_Yeung says:
::nods at EO:: EO: Yeah, I’ll clean things up here. You get your head checked out by the Doc.

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: Almost immediately, the scan of the Romulan reveals the cause of death to be a quick acting poison administered orally. It’s quite prevalent in the Romulans bloodstream.

CSO_Storal says:
All: We observed puddles everywhere.

MO_Sarel says:
::helps put him on the biobed:: CMO: Certainly sir.

FCO_Marsland says:
OPS: Buzz? What do you mean?

EO_Powers says:
CEO: Thank you, sir.

OPS_Lowell says:
FCO: Here's how you do it, take a type 2 shuttle...

CSO_Storal says:
SO: Did you find anything while I was away?

EO_Powers says:
::heads towards TL::

FCO_Marsland says:
::listens intently to the OPS::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
CSO: And no indication as to what happened with the original colonists? :;shakes her head:: Of course not...

TO_Knoxville says:
CMO: If you'll not be needing me, ma'am...

MO_Sarel says:
::monitors the Romulans bio readings … what few he still has::

CMO_Naegle says:
MO: Poison?  And the same compound that used to be put in rodent killer back in the 20th century.

JAG_Vekh says:
CSO: I do not question your findings, Commander. It's just that how could the Romulans undertake a long-term experiment like this without it being noticed.

OPS_Lowell says:
FCO: Put her to manual, of course, and then try and get as close to the viewport as possible at top velocity… ::grins::

SO_Hammond says:
CSO: Still going over all of the data, sir.

XO_Linard says:
CO: For all we know they could have killed them as well.

CEO_Yeung says:
::closes the panels and gathers up the tools::

FCO_Marsland says:
::laughs:: OPS: Want to try it with me when we get back to the Starbase?

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The poison seems to be quite strong and likely killed the officer immediately. Further, it seems to have a secondary agent that is continuing to break down the officer’s body on the molecular level. First destroying his nervous system, and then moving on to larger organs. Ultimately it could mean the complete evaporation of the entire body.

CSO_Storal says:
JAG: This is a xenophobic colony … they infiltrated the colony and slowly made sure that all the colonists were cloned. Then probably killed off the originals.

EO_Powers says:
::enters TL::  TL: Sickbay.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
XO:  From what happened to the clone colony, I wouldn't doubt it, Commander.

SO_Hammond says:
CSO: As of now this is all just theories … we don’t have a whole anything substantial.

JAG_Vekh says:
CSO: If you don't object sir, I'd like to continue studying the data on the silver blood.

TO_Cha`Dak says:
::shakes his head as he listens to OPS and FCO::

CSO_Storal says:
JAG: For what purpose, Commander?

CMO_Naegle says:
*XO*: Commander, this man has been poisoned.

OPS_Lowell says:
FCO: Sure, but we have to use a tricorder to mask our life signs. If we don't they will transport us off the Shuttle and into the brig. ::grins evilly::

XO_Linard says:
*CMO*: What kind of poison, Doctor?

JAG_Vekh says:
CSO: A substance with the silver bloods properties could have serious implications in the wrong hands. The planet should be at least quarantined for the time being.

FCO_Marsland says:
OPS: Oh, of course!

MO_Sarel says:
CMO: Poison? That is extremely odd.

CSO_Storal says:
JAG: I’ve already sent my recommendations to Starfleet.

TO_Cha`Dak says:
OPS: Is this what they teach in the Academy?

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
CSO:  I want you to complete your report and forward it to me as soon as possible.  I think we have enough information here that Starfleet will want to send teams for further investigation.

CSO_Storal says:
JAG: The Planet will be quarantined!

JAG_Vekh says:
CSO: If this is indeed a new Romulan weapon then we should learn everything we can about it.

OPS_Lowell says:
FCO: We got a deal.

OPS_Lowell says:
TO: This is what they don't teach you there, care to join us?

JAG_Vekh says:
::nods::

CSO_Storal says:
JAG: That weapon, hopefully, is stopped here.

EO_Powers says:
::exits TL and heads for sickbay::

XO_Linard says:
::hands the OPS a PADD with her message to Starfleet:: OPS: Transmit this message to Starfleet on a secure channel.

CSO_Storal says:
CO: Aye sir.

OPS_Lowell says:
XO: Aye sir. ::takes the PADD and begins the encryption sequence::

CMO_Naegle says:
*XO*: A strong poison that likely killed him immediately.  Furthermore, it seems to be continuing to break his body down on the molecular level.

TO_Cha`Dak says:
OPS: I accept your invitation.

JAG_Vekh says:
::grim-faced:: CSO: I don’t think the Romulans would give up that easy sir, although I share your hopes to that end.

OPS_Lowell says:
TO: You don't have a weak stomach do you?

EO_Powers says:
::enters sick bay::

TO_Cha`Dak says:
::frowns:: OPS: I am Klingon. We do not have 'weak stomachs'.

CSO_Storal says:
JAG: I agree. But now that we know about it, I doubt they will continue the experiment.

FCO_Marsland says:
::gives up the helm to Ensign Oleson and walks back to OPS::

XO_Linard says:
::nods knowingly hearing the CMO's report:: CO: More destruction of evidence no doubt.*CMO*: Thank you, Doctor.

CSO_Storal says:
JAG: It’s in the hands of the diplomats now.

OPS_Lowell says:
TO: Then by all means...

CEO_Yeung says:
::gets all the tools and heads back to Main Engineering::

Sonja_Davore says:
::grins:: OPS: Careful sir, I still have to work under him for another 5 days.

FCO_Marsland says:
TO: Lieutenant, you coming along?

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
JAG:  With the damage that they inflicted on the colony I don't know that they are really giving up ... most likely simply moving it to another location.

CMO_Naegle says:
::looks up at Mister Powers:: EO: Can I help you, Mister Powers?

JAG_Vekh says:
CSO: Agreed sir.

TO_Cha`Dak says:
FCO: Someone needs to make sure we don’t get thrown in the brig.

OPS_Lowell says:
::finishes the encryption sequence and transmits the message to SFC::

OPS_Lowell says:
Sonja: Aye, Ma'am!

CMO_Naegle says:
*XO*: You're welcome, sickbay out.

EO_Powers says:
CMO: It can wait if you're busy.

CSO_Storal says:
SO: Report to sickbay ... you have a physical don’t you? ::grins::

JAG_Vekh says:
CO: Your statement is quite correct, Captain. Unfortunately…

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
FCO:  Do you have the course plotted to Starbase 366?

CMO_Naegle says:
EO: What is it?

OPS_Lowell says:
::overhears the CSO:: CSO: As do you, Commander...

SO_Hammond says:
Self: Diplomats ... they can screw up a glass of water.

TO_Knoxville says:
::exits sickbay, tapping his combadge:: *TO_Cha`Dak*: Sir, I have just arrived back from the away mission, and awaiting further orders.

FCO_Marsland says:
::grins:: CO: Aye sir, all ready to go.

SO_Hammond says:
CSO: Can it wait till I am done up here, sir?

CSO_Storal says:
SO: No … you should report to sickbay immediately.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::waits for Lieutenant Marsland's answer:: FCO:  Then by all means Lieutenant ... engage.
