Star Trek: Apache - Episode #13
Week # 5
Mission: "Questions of Loyalty"

Host Jafo says:
The Apache has managed to limp back to port. There, the escape pod and Tzenkethi Shuttle were turned over to Federation authorities for examination. Starbase Security is questioning Glinn Suppec along with the Tzenkethi operator of the shuttle.

Host Jafo says:
Meanwhile, Savannah Xavier remains in the Apache's brig as the chief suspect in the murder investigation of Doctor Mruil. Work has begun to replace the Apache's damaged sickbay module but has been stalled while waiting for Lieutenant Cha`Dak’s okay to remove the old one.

Host Jafo says:

CSO_Storal says:
::In Main Science going over sensor logs::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::on his way to the Apache’s Brig, to interview CIV Xavier::

CNS_Vekh says:
::is on a back workstation on the bridge, reviewing sensor logs::

SO_Hammond says:
::looking around his quarters for the PADD's with the Silver Blood info::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::walking down the corridor toward main science::

CSO_Storal says:
*CTO*: Storal to Cha`Dak. Have you completed your investigation into the e explosion?

CMO_Naegle says:
::going to the Apache's brig::

Host Lt_Soria says:
::hurries to catch up with Captain Tyler:: CO: Captain Tyler ... Captain Tyler...

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*CSO*: Aye Commander, for the moment.

SO_Hammond says:
Self: I hope they didn't get those too.

CIV_Xavier says:
@::lands the shuttle in one of the Starbases' shuttlebay and powers down::

CSO_Storal says:
*CTO*: Then notify the Starbase … so that they can commence with the repairs to the deck.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*CSO*: Aye sir.

CMO_Naegle says:
::instructs the turbolift to take her to deck 17::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::turns to see Lt. Soria running toward her::  Soria:  Hello, Lieutenant, how is your investigation going?

CSO_Storal says:
*SO*: When  you are ready I need you in Main Science Mr. Hammond

CMO_Naegle says:
::exits the turbolift at deck 17 and heads toward the brig, medkit in hand::

SO_Hammond says:
::finds his stack of PADD's::  self:  YES!!

CIV_Xavier says:
@::gathers her gear and exits the shuttle nonchalantly heads for the exit::

CNS_Vekh says:
::calls up some more files on the Silver Blood chemistry and keeps researching on the subject::

Host Lt_Soria says:
::cradles his arm in his sling:: CO: Tough case ... this is a very tough case. Particularly with all the blood sample evidence being destroyed in the sickbay.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*Lt. Cmdr. Anderson*: This is Lt. Cha`Dak to Lt. Cmdr. Anderson.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::enters a TL:: TL: Brig.

LtCmdr_Anderson says:
@*CTO*: Go ahead, Lt.

XO_Linard says:
::is walking with the CO ... listens carefully to Lt Soria::

SO_Hammond says:
*CSO*: Heading down now sir.  I found the PADD's with my info on the Silver Blood.  They didn't get those.

CSO_Storal says:
*SO*:  Acknowledged

SO_Hammond says:
::Heads out for main science::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::nods:: Soria:  I was hoping that some of it could be salvaged.  However, I'm not surprised that the explosion is preventing that.  How is your arm?

CNS_Vekh says:
::observes the simulation of the interactions of the dichromate’s and proteins molecules in the silver blood::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*Lt. Cmdr. Anderson*: I have finished my investigation into the explosion in the Apaches sickbay. You may install the new module at your earliest convenience.

CSO_Storal says:
::Sees a damaged experiment out of the corner of his eye:: Aloud: By the Emissary! ::walks over and begins to see the extent of  the damage::

CIV_Xavier says:
@::walks down the corridors of the Starbase and heads for the bar for a quick pick me up::

CMO_Naegle says:
::enters the brig area and goes over to the cell where Ensign Xavier is::

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: Doctor Naegle enters the Brig followed closely by Lieutenant Cha`Dak. Xavier is sitting in her cell, cradling a bruised cheekbone in her hand.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::exits the turbolift and walks down the corridor to the brig. As he enters he sees Lieutenant Commander Naegle::

CIV_Xavier says:
@::glances around and heads straight for the bar::

SO_Hammond says:
::exits the TL and heads over to Cmdr Storal::

CSO_Storal says:
Self: The explosion must have knocked it over ... there’s several weeks gone down the waste disposal.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
CMO: Greetings Doctor, how is she? ::gestures, indicating the CIV::

SO_Hammond says:
CSO: You just can't catch a break, can you sir.

Host Lt_Soria says:
::looks at his arm:: CO: Oh, it's fine Captain. I'll be playing the kazoo again in no time.

CMO_Naegle says:
CTO: Greetings, Lieutenant.  I just got here myself.

CSO_Storal says:
::Glares  at the SO:: SO: That better not be a pun  Mr. Hammond.

SO_Hammond says:
::Smiles:: CSO: They didn't get all my information.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::nods:: CMO: I need to question her as soon as possible, doctor.

CIV_Xavier says:
@::orders a drink and takes a hypo from her bag and administers the hypo to her neck::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
XO:  Commander Storal is in Main Science and should have those reports ready for us, would you check with him to make sure?

SO_Hammond says:
::Chuckles:: CSO: But of course...sir

CMO_Naegle says:
CTO: Okay, just let me do a quick medical scan of her.

Host Lt_Soria says:
::follows along down the corridor with Captain Tyler and Commander Linard::

CSO_Storal says:
SO: Not in the mood, I’m afraid. What do you have for me, Lieutenant?

CIV_Xavier says:
@::palms the glass a little and then downs the contents::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::folds his arms in front of his broad chest, frowning slightly at Ens. Xavier::

CIV_Xavier says:
@Barkeep: Thanks. ::smiles::

CMO_Naegle says:
::motions to the guard to let her into the cell with the Ensign.::

XO_Linard says:
CO: Yes of course Captain....::nods to Soria in farewells::....Lieutenant....::heads off for Main Science::

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The forcefield to Xavier's cell snaps off allowing the Doctor in.

SO_Hammond says:
CSO: Like any normal scientist, I do a lot of work in my quarters.  Here is most of what was removed from the computer.

CSO_Storal says:
SO: Come into my office. ::walks into his office and sits down::

XO_Linard says:
::quickens her pace and heads off for the lab::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
Soria:  I'm glad to hear that.  This incident with the Ensign Xavier is quite a disturbing development.  Doctor Naegle is checking on her and is to take another blood sample.  We're still waiting on the report from Lieutenant Hammond on the stability of the silver blood, though.

SO_Hammond says:
::follows the CSO::

CMO_Naegle says:
::walks into the cell with medical tricorder and hypospray for drawing blood::

XO_Linard says:
::enters Main Science and looks around briefly for the CSO::

Host Lt_Soria says:
CO: I suspect, Captain, that regardless of the Silver Blood's stability ... this clone we are dealing with has come across some method for increasing its longevity.

CIV_Xavier says:
@::strolls towards the Apache gangway::

CSO_Storal says:
SO: What have you found out, Joseph?

CMO_Naegle says:
ENS: How are you today, Ensign?  I'm just going to do a quick scan of you and then draw some blood for a test.

Ens_Xavier says:
::winces:: CMO: Geez, Doc ... not so rough with that thing, please.

CNS_Vekh says:
::saves his simulation of the silver blood chemistry and gets up:: Self: I'd better check on what's going on in the Brig ::enters a Turbolift::

XO_Linard says:
::sees the CSO at his desk, smiles slightly and heads over.... taking a little caution not to disturb him and the SO::

SO_Hammond says:
CSO: Not much yet sir, I just found them.  I'm going to plug the info in now and see what I can come up with.

CMO_Naegle says:
::runs her medical scanner over the Ensign and looks at her in confusion:: ENS: I haven't even touched you yet.  Relax!

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
Soria:  Most likely, not to mention the ability to change forms.  That is a feature that we didn't encounter with our first experience with the silver blood clones.

CIV_Xavier says:
@::walks up to the security checkpoint::

CSO_Storal says:
SO: We need that data yesterday ... every moment the clone gets farther and farther.

Ens_Xavier says:
::feeling extremely jumpy, tries to relax ... looks at the tricorder pensively::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*CNS*: Commander, your presence is required in the brig.

CIV_Xavier says:
@::goes through the retina scan and palm print::

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: At the Gangway, two Security officers look up at Xavier in confusion ... hesitate ... and then grab her roughly by the arms.

XO_Linard says:
::looks from the SO to the CSO:: CSO/SO: So I guess that answers my question on how the reports are coming....::grins::

CMO_Naegle says:
::notes the results of the scans on her tricorder and gets out her hypospray to draw the blood::

CNS_Vekh says:
::midway to there already:: *CTO*: I'm already on my way, Lieutenant

SO_Hammond says:
CSO: Aye sir, I’m on it. ::turns and almost bumps into the XO:: XO: Oh, excuse me sir.

CSO_Storal says:
::Sees the XO and smiles:: XO: Sir we are compiling the report.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
It will be quite a challenge to discover who the original creator of the clone was, considering this ability to change form.

CIV_Xavier says:
@Sec: What on earth are you two doing! Get your greasy paws off me.

SO_Hammond says:
::sits at the nearest console and begins to go over his info::

CSO_Storal says:
::Stands up and moves around his desk and stands next  to the XO::

Host Lt_Soria says:
CO: I wonder if the Starbase Security is having any luck with Glinn Suppec. When I spoke to him briefly, he seemed to have a lot of information.

XO_Linard says:
::smiles and nods at the SO:: CSO: Good to hear. The Captain is looking for it..... she's a little anxious to get this one...

TO_Verall says:
@*CTO*: Sir, we've just detained Ensign Xavier. Thought you should know, sir.

CNS_Vekh says:
::exits the Turbolift and makes his way to the brig, noticing a commotion from the direction of the gangway airlock::

CMO_Naegle says:
::draws the blood from Ensign Xavier::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*Verall*: You must be mistaken. Ens. Xavier is here in the brig with us.

CSO_Storal says:
XO: I haven’t heard anything from Captain Madred on  the shuttle crew that the escape pod was headed for.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
Soria: I haven't seen the latest reports from Starbase Security, I'm sure however, that Glinn Suppec has a lot of useful information to share.

TO_Verall says:
::looks closely at Xavier:: *CTO*: Nope, definitely her sir.

CMO_Naegle says:
ENS: Now that didn't hurt a bit, did it?

CNS_Vekh says:
::decides that taking a look won't hurt the CTO's feeling and walks back to see what's going on::

Ens_Xavier says:
::grimaces and mutters at the CMO under her breath::

TO_Verall says:
*CTO*: Should we bring her to the brig, sir?

CIV_Xavier says:
@Verall: Another one of me? Where? ::looks disturbed.

CIV_Xavier says:
::

Ens_Xavier says:
::starts rocking back and forth and muttering softly::

CNS_Vekh says:
::turns around the corner and almost stomps at the SEC officers:: Self: By the Rings of Tauntee… ::sees they are holding Ensign Xavier!::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*Verall*: Yes, I think you'd better.

CMO_Naegle says:
::watches the CTO as she finishes up her work:: ENS: Thank you, Ensign.  ::turns to walk out::

CNS_Vekh says:
Security: But what is going on here?

XO_Linard says:
CSO: Nor have I. I would assume he would let us know if it was of importance.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
Soria:  Perhaps we should check in with Captain Madred or Commander Anderson.

TO_Verall says:
::turns to Vekh:: CNS: Sir, we've detained the ensign for questioning. Lieutenant Cha`Dak has asked that we escort her to the brig.

SO_Hammond says:
Self: This is nothing like what we are encountering.  Something has changed, but what?

CSO_Storal says:
XO: I suppose I could give the Captain what we know … what I have so far. But it’s nothing more than speculation at this point.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
CMO: Thank you, doctor.

Host Lt_Soria says:
::looks up in confusion:: CO: Commander Anderson?

CIV_Xavier says:
CNS: Commander, we seem to have a little situation here.

XO_Linard says:
::grins:: CSO: Well it's better than nothing Commander. I'm sure she trusts your judgment.

CNS_Vekh says:
::thinks that Ensign Xavier should be already in the brig, but does not say a thing:: Verall: I think that'd be for the better. I'll join you. ::indicates for Verall to proceed::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
Ens. Xavier: Are you up to answering a few questions, ensign?

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
Soria:  I believe he is one of the officers in charge of Starbase Security.  However, I may be mixed up on the name.

CSO_Storal says:
::Motions to the door:: XO: Shall we? ::winks::

XO_Linard says:
::smirks:: CSO: After you....

CNS_Vekh says:
CIV: Indeed that seems to be the case, Mr. Xavier. Where have you been if you don’t mind me asking?

Ens_Xavier says:
::cradles her extremely sore jaw and mumbles as she rocks back and forth:: CTO: Okay... ::weakly::

TO_Verall says:
::starts moving CIV Xavier towards the brig area::

CIV_Xavier says:
CNS: Medical Board Review, sir!

CMO_Naegle says:
CTO: You are quite welcome. I'm glad to be of help

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
Ens_Xavier: Well, let's begin with what you remember. What happened on the shuttle?

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::watches as the doors to Main Science swish open in front of Lieutenant Soria and herself::

Host Lt_Soria says:
::nods:: CO: Oh, of course... ::looks right, then looks left:: ... Captain, are we lost?

CSO_Storal says:
::heads out of his office:: SO: I’ll be giving the Captain what we have at this  point . Contact me as soon as you get anything new.

CSO_Storal says:
CO: Sir, I was just on my way to see you.

CNS_Vekh says:
CIV: Yes Ensign? Then what if I tell you that we just picked ... you ... from a stolen pod headed for a Tzenkethi shuttle?

SO_Hammond says:
CSO: Aye sir … so far nothing new.

CMO_Naegle says:
::walks out of the brig area with the tricorder readings and vial of blood in her medkit::

Ens_Xavier says:
::her pupils begin to contact and expand oddly as she tries to lift her head to look at the CTO::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::is still stood outside of the cell, his arms folded across his chest::

TO_Verall says:
::watching the CIV very closely, phasers at the ready just in case::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
Soria:  No, not at all. CSO: Excellent timing then, Commander. What new information do you have for us?  ::nods toward Lieutenant Soria::

CIV_Xavier says:
::glances at the two-security personnel::

Host Lt_Soria says:
::listens closely to what Storal has to say::

XO_Linard says:
:;stops in front of the CO and Soria::

CNS_Vekh says:
::enters the Brig area:: All: We seem to have a new guest here. CTO: You'll be delighted about this one. ::indicates CIV Xavier::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
Ens_Xavier: Well Savannah?

Ens_Xavier says:
::winces and looks down, huddling her head down between her knees and starts crying softly::

CSO_Storal says:
::nods at Lieutenant Soria:: CO: We have nothing more than speculation at this point. I believe that the silver blood has either mutated or evolved … or was in contact with a changeling.

CIV_Xavier says:
::gets hustled into the brig::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::turns as the CNS enters, his frown deepening:: CNS: Into that cell there, please Counselor.

CSO_Storal says:
CO: But we have nothing solid on that.

CIV_Xavier says:
::looks at her mirror image counterpart::

XO_Linard says:
CSO: That's an interesting speculation, Commander. It's worth looking into.

Ens_Xavier says:
::looks up and sees Ensign Xavier led into the cell next to her ... visibly reacts to her presence::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::turns back to Ens_Xavier:: Ens_Xavier: Savannah, what do you remember?

CSO_Storal says:
XO: I have Mister Hammond on it.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
CSO: If the Silver Blood came into contact with a changeling, that would present an interesting twist of events.  Continue to follow and test that theory.

CNS_Vekh says:
CIV: Mister Xavier, if you please. ::indicates the cell pointed out by the CTO::

SO_Hammond says:
::glances up at his name, then goes back to work::

Ens_Xavier says:
::rather suddenly, while K'hora is facing away from her talking to the CNS, she whips out a blade from absolutely nowhere and slices it across the Klingons throat::

CSO_Storal says:
CO: Aye sir. I have filed a report with Captain Madred ... but I haven’t heard anything from him about the shuttle crew.

CIV_Xavier says:
CNS: Sir?  ::walks to the far end of the cell::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
All: Argh!

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: Shocked by the incredibly fast movement of Savannah, K'hora gurgles trying to breath and stumbles out away from the cell.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::lifts a hand to his throat desperately::

CIV_Xavier says:
::reaches behind her back and slides out two blades::

Ens_Xavier says:
::the knife dissolves from Savannah's hand becoming her fingers again as she stands from her bench::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::stumbles against the security console, and hits the security intruder alert::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::nods:: CSO:  I haven't heard anything either.  Except that Glinn Suppec was one of the two on the shuttle.  I don't know that the identity of the second person was given.

CIV_Xavier says:
::and lunges for the other clone::

CMO_Naegle says:
::thinks she knows what the blood tests will tell her, but goes to the science lab to test it anyway::

CSO_Storal says:
CO: All I know is that the other person was a Tzenkethi.

CNS_Vekh says:
::eyes widen as he instinctively jumps at the Ensign Xavier, hitting her on the chin with full strength::

CIV_Xavier says:
::brings her right knee up to the clone’s abdomen::

Ens_Xavier says:
::the clones hand now becomes a phaser ... strangely similar to the one that Savannah once threw in a puddle of silver blood ... and she points it at the CIV as they tussle::

CMO_Naegle says:
::rides a turbolift to deck 4::

CIV_Xavier says:
::mutters a few curses as the Orion joins in::

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: Security forcefields come up; the CNS bounces against one and is thrown back into the main brig.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
CSO:  I'm not surprised, and it's quite probable that they are involved with Dr. Mruil's death in some way.

Ens_Xavier says:
::almost as if on autopilot, the Ensign seems to not even notice her attacker as she presses her hand/phaser to the CIV's temple::

CMO_Naegle says:
::exits the turbolift and goes to the main science lab::

CIV_Xavier says:
::brings her left hand to lodge the knife into the clone’s phaser hand::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::taps his combadge:: *CMO*: Doctor … medical … emergency!

CSO_Storal says:
CO: Agreed. Has anyone interviewed Mister Xavier yet?

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*CMO*: ... Brig ...

CNS_Vekh says:
::falls backward, but regains his feet quickly:: *CMO*: Medical emergency on the Brig!!!

CIV_Xavier says:
::head butts her counterpart::

Ens_Xavier says:
::the clones phaser hand is pinned to the deck by the CIV's knife ... it goes off impacting into the forcefield::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::holds a hand to his neck, stifling the flow of blood::

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: An Intruder Alert is heard throughout the Apache.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::hears the klaxon signifying intruder alert:: Computer, what is the location of the intruder alert?

SO_Hammond says:
::looks up at the klaxons:: Self: Now what?

CMO_Naegle says:
::notices the gurgling sound in Cha`Dak's voice:: *CNS/CTO*: On my way!

CNS_Vekh says:
*CO*: There's an emergency in the Brig. I need your override codes to deactivate the forcefields in here.

CMO_Naegle says:
::runs out of the science lab, and back into a turbolift for deck 17.

Ens_Xavier says:
::throwing Xavier off of herself, the clone begins to stand::

Host Computer says:
*CO*: Intruder Alert was initiated from deck 17, Ship’s Brig.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
*CNS*: We're on our way, Commander.

CSO_Storal says:
::heads to the Brig::

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: As Xavier goes flying through the air; she lands on the end of the metal cell bunk. There is a sickening crack as her vertebrae are shattered.

CIV_Xavier says:
::hits the ground and rolls to the right::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::is unable to reach either Xavier. He watches the two, as his purple blood runs down his large hand::

CIV_Xavier says:
::smacks against the bunk::

CNS_Vekh says:
::reaches the nearby console and taps at it furiously::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
XO:  Dispatch a security detail to the brig.  ::heads for the nearest TL::

CMO_Naegle says:
::exits the turbolift at the correct deck with her medkit still in hand:: ALL: what happened?

CIV_Xavier says:
::curses out loud at the hardness of the impact::

Ens_Xavier says:
::reaches with her good hand, yanks it from the deck, points the phaser at her own temple and fires::

CNS_Vekh says:
::taps the intercom:: *Main Engineering*: This is Commander Vekh, cut all power to Brig forcefields … NOW!

CMO_Naegle says:
::notices Cha`Dak on the floor and sees the clone fire the phaser at herself::

XO_Linard says:
::taps combadge:: CTO/Security: Security to the brig!

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: A Blood-curdling scream from the clone is the last words heard as the clone phaser vaporizes its head ... the silver blood begins to dissolve slowly, pooling on the floor.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
TL: Deck 17, Brig. ::waits for the Turbolift to come to a stop and the doors to slide open, follows Commander Storal into the Brig::

CNS_Vekh says:
::follows everything with awe:: Self: By the Ancient Green Demons...

CMO_Naegle says:
::as she runs to Lieutenant Cha`Dak she notices the silver blood pooling::

CIV_Xavier says:
::get on her feet but her spine is fractured in two spots so she crumples to the ground::

CSO_Storal says:
::exits the Turbolift and arrives in the Brig and quickly takes in  the situation.::

XO_Linard says:
::follows everyone and enters the brig ::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::enters the Brig in time to see a pool of silver blood developing from the Xavier clone::

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: At the Commander's command, the forcefield snaps out of existence.

SO_Hammond says:
::continues studying the information on the silver blood, looking for a weakness::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::lifts a bleeding hand towards the doctor, showing the small clean cut across the throat. Luckily, no arteries were severed::

CSO_Storal says:
::Sees the silver blood pool:: All: I need a  tricorder!

CIV_Xavier says:
::tries again to get back on her feet::

CMO_Naegle says:
Kneels down next to Cha`Dak with a dermal regenerator and medical tricorder::

CNS_Vekh says:
::knees at the CMO's side:: CMO: How's he Doctor? ::indicates the Klingon::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::can feel himself passing out::

CMO_Naegle says:
::scans the Lt.:: CNS: Well, it was a clean cut.  No arteries severed.  K'hora is one lucky Klingon!

SO_Hammond says:
self: What have we here?

CIV_Xavier says:
::mutters a few more curses:: Self: Come one get up.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::moves over to Ens. Xavier and places a hand on her shoulder:: CIV:  Don't try to get up, wait for Dr. Naegle to check you out.

SO_Hammond says:
*CSO*: Sir, I have some new information for you.

CSO_Storal says:
::Grabs a tricorder and begins to scan the silver blood:: Aloud: Your not getting away without you telling me your secrets.

MO_Karl says:
::a junior MO rushes into the brig area::

CSO_Storal says:
*SO*:Go ahead Mr. Hammond.

MO_Karl says:
::sees the CMO tending to Mr. Cha`Dak and head of to the CIV::

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: Commander Storal's scans show a slowly dwindling supply of protein molecules consistent with what they have previously found among Silver Blood clones.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::sees Dr. Naegle with Lt. Cha`Dak... then notices Dr. Pain enter:: Pain:  Doctor, we have another patient in here.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
CMO: Doctor...

Host Lt_Soria says:
::arrives at the brig standing next to the CO:: Self: Goodness ... what happened here?

CMO_Naegle says:
::uses the dermal regenerator on the CTO:: CTO: You'll be fine, K'hora.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
CMO: Do not let me die like this. It is not a Warrior’s death.

CSO_Storal says:
::looks at the results:: Aloud: No this cant be it! There has to be more!

CIV_Xavier says:
::feels her body go into deep sleep, and tries to stay awake::

SO_Hammond says:
*CSO*: The clones show signs of a lack of independence and susceptibleness to coercion; in other words ... easy to brainwash.

MO_Karl says:
CO: I'm right on her, Captain. ::begins stabilizing the CIV, waiting for the CMO to take over::

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: Doctor Karl's examination of Ensign Xavier indicates several crushed and damaged vertebrae.

CMO_Naegle says:
CTO: You aren't going to die, K'hora, You'll be fine.

CSO_Storal says:
*SO*: Acknowledged Mr. Hammond, unless there is another clone we won’t have to worry.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::looks at the pool of silver blood:: Soria:  It appears that the Xavier clone has been killed or killed itself.   CNS:  What happened down here?

CMO_Naegle says:
Karl: Doctor Karl, Take over here, I'll tend to Ensign Xavier now.

XO_Linard says:
CSO: What is it Commander?

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::feels better already, as the dermal regeneration takes effect::

CNS_Vekh says:
::stands at the Captain's call:: CO: A pretty amazing turn of event sir.

Host Lt_Soria says:
::looks at the CO and puts a hand to his forehead:: CO: It was Ensign Xavier all along?

SO_Hammond says:
*CSO*: If someone brainwashed one clone, they could make another one and do the same.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
Dr. Karl: There better be a scar when you've finished, or else.

CSO_Storal says:
XO: The scans of this clone don’t indicate any of my theories ... and according to Mister Hammond’s research, the clones are easy to brainwash and control.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::nods:: CNS:  Lt. Soria and I would be most interested in hearing all about it.

CNS_Vekh says:
CO: On my way here, I just happened to come across the Sec Officers guarding the gangway, and they had just arrested Mr. Xavier here. ::points at CIV::

CSO_Storal says:
*SO*: Not from the amount of the Blood that they got.

XO_Linard says:
CSO: Then you think someone else may be behind this?

CMO_Naegle says:
::goes over to Ensign Xavier:: Ensign, I'm going to beam you directly to sickbay::

CIV_Xavier says:
CMO: ::nods::

CSO_Storal says:
::Looks  at Soria:: XO: Definitely

XO_Linard says:
::looks to where the CSO is looking::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
Soria:  Yes, but there was a clone of Ensign Xavier when we returned from Tellas before.

SO_Hammond says:
*CSO*: We have a planet full of it.  I'm sure if they were determined, they could get some.

XO_Linard says:
::looks from Soria to the CSO::

MO_Karl says:
::grins sadistically:: CTO:" Oh, don't worry, it'll be a real ugly scar.

CNS_Vekh says:
CO: As the Security and I escorted Mr. Xavier to the brig, the clone took the momentary distraction of Mr. Cha`Dak to attempt an escape

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
Dr. Karl: Good.

CSO_Storal says:
Soria: I think its time that you tell is everything you know.

CMO_Naegle says:
Computer: Computer, lock on to Ensign Xavier and beam her to directly to the Starbases Intensive Care Unit.

Host Lt_Soria says:
::runs his hands through his curly and messy hair:: CSO: But Ensign Xavier didn't have any reason to want to kill Mruil ... no wonder I wasn't able to locate this medical review board she was supposed to be attending.

CNS_Vekh says:
ALL: This apparently answers our question as whether the clone could reshape itself or not

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: Doctor Naegle and Ensign Xavier dematerialize from the Brig and rematerialize in the Starbase Sickbay with Xavier on a biobed.

CSO_Storal says:
Soria: The clones don’t think for themselves, Lieutenant. Someone was pulling the strings.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::brushes away Dr. Karl and his dermal regenerator, and stands, approaching the CO::

SO_Hammond says:
::continues with his examination, taking his studies in a whole new direction::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
CO: Sir. ::nods in greeting::

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: As K'hora stands to greet the Captain; he reopens his neck wound, which spurts blood out across Captain Tyler's uniform front.

CNS_Vekh says:
CO: And at the end, for reasons unknown to me, the clone simply killed itself after having seriously injured Mr. Cha`Dak and the real Ensign Xavier

CSO_Storal says:
Soria: I think you know whom.

Host Lt_Soria says:
CNS: But who was behind this ... the mastermind!

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::gurgles slightly::

Host Lt_Soria says:
::looks at Storal oddly:: CSO: Me?

CNS_Vekh says:
Soria: I thought you were the investigator here, Lieutenant. ::a bit sarcasm on his voice::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::turns back to Dr. Karl:: MO: Doctor!

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::steps back as she's surprised by the sudden spurt of blood hitting her across the front:: CTO:  I believe you should lie back down.  You need to let Dr. Karl look after you and take the time to heal.

CMO_Naegle says:
@::rematerializes with the CIV:: SB Medic: I have a critically injured crewman here … possible spinal cord injury, obvious spinal breakage.

Host Lt_Soria says:
::catches a bit of blood on himself from K'hora and steps back::

CSO_Storal says:
Soria:  You haven’t told us everything.. As Chief Science Officer of this ship and supervisor of the original experiment, I do believe I have a right to know everything.

SB Medic says:
@CMO: I'm on my way, ma'am.  What happened?

Host Lt_Soria says:
::begins digging in his pockets:: CSO: Well ... uhhhh ... Commander, I really don't know what you mean.

MO_Karl says:
CTO: I knew this would happen!! Sit down!

XO_Linard says:
::overhears the CO:: CTO: She's right Lieutenant … you wouldn't want that pretty little Klingon girlfriend of yours to be getting any death notices now would you? ::grins and winks at him::

CIV_Xavier says:
@::is in a state of deep sleep, her body floods with endorphins::

CMO_Naegle says:
@Medic: A fight in the brig.  You'll have to ask her. ::indicates Ensign Xavier::

CSO_Storal says:
Soria: Ever since this investigation began, you have been keeping the command crew and myself in the dark. It ends now!

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::at the mention of D’Layna, K`hora frowns, and swipes the dermal regenerator from Dr. Karl’s hand::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
Dr. Karl: I'll do it myself.

CNS_Vekh says:
::observing Soria's erratic behavior, can just wonder what'll happen next around here:: Self: The Ancient Green Gods are surely making fun out of us ::under his breath::

Host Lt_Soria says:
::backs away from Storal and pulls a PADD form his pocket, holds up his hands:: CSO: Commander, I don't know what you're talking about. I am as much surprised as you are.

SB Medic says:
@CIV: Well, Ms. Xavier?  What happened?

CSO_Storal says:
Soria:  I want all your information on this case now!

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::keeps his mind off the pain by thinking of D'Layna, as he heals the ruptured skin on his neck::

XO_Linard says:
CTO: Lieutenant, I think you better let Dr. Karl do his work. ::gives him a look:: ...that's an order.

Host Lt_Soria says:
XO: Commander, I think you need to put a stop to this!

CMO_Naegle says:
@CIV: Yes, Savannah, what did happen in the brig?
