Star Trek: Apache - Episode #14
Week # 5
Mission: "Independence"

Host Jafo says:
Omin Rego has awakened in sickbay appearing to be fully recovered from the transporter effects. The abnormality discovered by Dr. Naegle, however, is still present.   Captain Turnbull is meeting with Judge Hershey who is in a very relaxed state and has already shown to be enjoying Apache's luxuries, namely the replicator.

Host Jafo says:
The power transfer that occurred on the Apache once the fugitives arrived was discovered to originate from a terminal in Fort Apache. After a brief investigation, Commander Yeung and Lieutenant Hammond narrowed the fluctuation to come from a replicator heavily utilized in Fort Apache. The codes used to access the transporter belonged to Science Officer Stillman, a Stellar Cartographer.

Host Jafo says:
While looking for migraine medication for Omin Rego, Oreh Dash appeared to wander into sickbay without escort. Thinking he had startled the CMO, he contacted Cha`Dak asking him to bring the medication. Upon further questioning, it was learned that Dash merely visited the CMO's mind when Rego needed the medication.

SO_Hammond says:
::exits the turbolift and heads over to the CTO’s office::

CNS_Vekh says:
::exits his office and heads for the XO's office via the nearest turbolift::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
Stillman: Starfleet regulations require that your superior officer be present during questioning, so we must wait for Lieutenant Hammond before speaking on the matter.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::walks to the center seat, nods to John as he gives the ships status::  OPS: Thank you Mister Edgemoor.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
V'Taran:  What is our ETA to Jovian 3?

XO_Linard says:
::begins to quickly clean the PADD's off her desk and clear a chair from her office for the CNS::

Host SC_Stillman says:

Host FCO_V`Taran says:
CO: Captain, at our current speed we will arrive at Jovian 3 in two days, thirteen hours, forty-three minutes, and seven seconds.

XO_Linard says:
CNS: Enter…

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
SO: Ah, greetings Lieutenant. ::stands from his chair::

EO_Powers says:
*SO*: Have you found out anything new about the transfer?

Host SC_Stillman says:
::gets really uncomfortable with the CTO staring at him and is glad to see Hammond arrive::

CNS_Vekh says:
::enters and stops with hands clasped behind his back:: XO: You wanted to see me, sir?

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
Stillman: Very well, let us begin. ::moves around to the back of his chair, placing his hands upon the backrest:: 

Host SC_Stillman says:
::stands up and grips the front of the SO's uniform:: SO: You got to believe me, I didn't do it! Don't leave me to this crazy Klingon! I'm innocent I say!

SO_Hammond says:
*EO*: I'll contact you in a minute about that.  I'm busy at the moment.

XO_Linard says:
::looks up and grins as the CNS comes in:: CNS: Yes Commander, please have a seat. ::motions to an empty chair::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::glowers at Stillman::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::can't hide the smile as she hears V'Taran's answer:: V'Taran:  Thank you Lieutenant.

Host FCO_V`Taran says:
::nods:: CO: Of course, Captain...

SO_Hammond says:
::smiles:: Stillman: Innocent about what?  We haven't even asked you anything yet.

CNS_Vekh says:
::sits down, making himself at ease:: XO: What do you have in mind, if I may ask Commander.

Host SC_Stillman says:
::straightens:: SO: Oh yeah ... well, whatever it is, I'm sure I am innocent of it.

EO_Powers says:
*SO*: Yes sir.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::frowns at the SO::

OPS_Edgemoor says:
CO: Captain, furthermore there have been no communications from the Risealan homeworld or any trouble from our guests.

SO_Hammond says:
Stillman: Sit and face Commander Cha`Dak, so he may proceed.  ::nods at the CTO::

XO_Linard says:
::puts down her PADD and leans back in her own chair:: CNS: Well, since we got back from the surface we've hardly had time to discuss further what you learned of Omin Rego and the "reservations" he was on.

Host SC_Stillman says:
::nods and looks a little nervous again:: SO: Okay Joseph ... err ... Lieutenant Hammond.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
Stillman: Mister Stillman, would you say you were using more than your usual amount of replicator rations in the last two weeks?

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
OPS:  Excellent, Mister Edgemoor.  Have you made any progress in decrypting the replicator logs?

CNS_Vekh says:
::just what he was expecting:: XO: Yes sir, that is correct. During my quick conversation with Mister Rego, back on Riseal, he casually told me of these 'reservations'.

Host SC_Stillman says:
::looks at the CTO blankly:: CTO: Replicator rations? This is about replicator rations? ::looks at the SO:: SO: He's kidding, right?

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
*EO*:  Report to the bridge immediately, Mister Powers.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
Stillman: Do I look like I am kidding, Mister Stillman!

XO_Linard says:
::smiles:: CNS: Did he tell you how long he was in them and why?

CNS_Vekh says:
XO: I went on a little research about it since we left the planet.

SO_Hammond says:
::points at the CTO:: CTO: Face him.

EO_Powers says:
*CO*: Aye sir.

Host SC_Stillman says:
::jumps as his chair moves back slightly:: CTO: No sir!

EO_Powers says:
::heads for turbolift::

OPS_Edgemoor says:
CO: Tactical and science have been dealing with the replicator problems. I've turned over all information I have from the database to those departments. However if they need a hand I’d be more than happy to help.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
SC: You will answer me with a yes or no, Mister Stillman. Have you been using more than your usual quota of replicator rations in the last two weeks?

EO_Powers says:
::enters the turbolift:: TL: Bridge…

Host SC_Stillman says:
::remembers stories about the CTO preferring his meals live:: CTO: I mean, no sir, I do not think I have been using more replicator rations this week.

CNS_Vekh says:
XO: Actually no, sir. But from his way of saying it, I'd guess it has been more than just a couple of times.

SO_Hammond says:
::crosses his arms and leans against the wall::

XO_Linard says:
CNS: I kind of figured that.

XO_Linard says:
CNS: So what did you find out?

Host SC_Stillman says:
::glances at Hammond, looking for help, but sees none will be forthcoming::

CNS_Vekh says:
XO: And of course, his opposition to the government's position would provide plenty of reasons for people like our beloved Judge Hershey.

EO_Powers says:
::enters the bridge::

XO_Linard says:
CNS: Yes of course, my sentiments exactly.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::nods:: Stillman: It has come to light that a replicator you use quite frequently has suddenly come under suspicion. Is there anything you might want to tell me about that replicator in particular...

SO_Hammond says:
::nods in the CTO's direction:: SC: I'm next.  ::smiles::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
OPS:  While Mister Hammond and Commander Cha`Dak are interviewing those in Fort Apache, I want you and Mister Powers to take over that phase of the investigation, as well as to continue going through the sensor logs from Fort Apache.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
Stillman: ...anything at all?

CNS_Vekh says:
XO: First fact, and the obvious one, is that I found no 'official' mention of anything like such a reservation on either our records or the Risealans files.

Host SC_Stillman says:
::looks at the CTO ... then lets his face fall into his hands:: CTO: Okay ... okay ... I admit it.

CNS_Vekh says:
XO: It simply looks like they do not exist.

EO_Powers says:
::reports to the CO:

XO_Linard says:
::makes a few notes on a PADD:: CNS: Really?  Sounds like a cover-up...

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::pauses, taken aback::

Host SC_Stillman says:
::through his hands:: CTO: I've been using the replicator in my quarters to make moonshine. I know it's against the regulations ... but ... there is quite a market on a ship run as strictly as this one.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::hears Powers enter:: EO:  Mister Powers, do you have any new information on the power transfer?

CNS_Vekh says:
XO: However ... I did gain access to the governments land registry files. ::makes a dramatic pause::

SO_Hammond says:
::begins to chuckles, then bites his lip:: CTO: Sir, if I may.

XO_Linard says:
::looks intently at the CNS:: CNS: Any speculations?

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::nods:: SO: Of course, Lieutenant.

OPS_Edgemoor says:
CO: Yes Ma'am. ::motions to the EO to come over to the OPS stations :: EO: Mister Powers...

Host SC_Stillman says:
::sobs into his hands::

CNS_Vekh says:
XO: And I found that the Government has been buying numerous large pieces of land on the Southern hemisphere, Omin Rego's birthplace.

SO_Hammond says:
::hands over a PADD to Stillman:: SC: Where were you between those hours in question?

EO_Powers says:
CO: I’m waiting on new information from the SO. The CMO and I determined that there was only a small chance that the transfer had anything to do with Rego's collapse though, sir.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::glares at the SC, thinking 'Moonshine! Outrageous!'::

CEO_Yeung says:
::enter CTO's office:: CTO\SO: Sorry I'm late gentlemen.

SO_Hammond says:
SC: And quit sobbing, it's rather annoying.

XO_Linard says:
::brings a hand to her chin thoughtfully as the CNS speaks::

Host SC_Stillman says:
::tries to compose himself but has trouble, looks at the PADD confused:: SO: Why ... that ... that's my duty shift. I would have been in Stellar Cartography.

CNS_Vekh says:
XO: I then thought of checking on another apparently innocuous piece of data ... namely the Ministry of Transports.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
CEO: We had only just begun, sir. 

XO_Linard says:
CNS: ...and?

CEO_Yeung says:
::nods::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::leans on the back of his chair, glowering::

CEO_Yeung says:
::leans in close to the CTO and whispers:: CTO: What's your progress?

EO_Powers says:
OPS: Yes sir?

Host SC_Stillman says:
::points a finger accusingly at the CTO:: SO: It's his fault! He's just so mean!

SO_Hammond says:
SC: Can you account for that.  Was there anyone else with you.

CNS_Vekh says:
XO: I also found that several of what the government calls ‘suspected dissidents’ have recently moved to these government-acquired lands. In some cases, far more individuals have moved to the land than the land could normally sufficiently support.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::nods:: EO:  Thank you, Mister Powers.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::in a similarly lowered voice:: CEO: It seems Stillman here had a still of his own, using the replicator to make moonshine on a Starfleet ship.

CNS_Vekh says:
XO: If those aren't our reservations, then I'm a Klingon ... sir.

Host SC_Stillman says:
::tries to calm down and thinks:: SO: Well, as you know, we usually stand watches of two in Stellar Cartography. Ensign Cervantes was in and out most of the shift.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::sits back and thinks about the little progress that has been made thus far::

OPS_Edgemoor says:
EO: Mister Powers, we have been tasked with investigating this replicator issue. I appreciate your help, for starters. Do you have any information to add at this time?

CEO_Yeung says:
::raises an eyebrow:: CTO: Moonshine? What is this ship coming to?

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::nods at Jon’s comment:: Stillman: Will Cervantes back up your story?

Host SC_Stillman says:
SO: Umm ... I suppose so. ::not sure why she would not::

EO_Powers says:
OPS: What information have you got so far?

XO_Linard says:
::nods to the CNS::

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The computer registers an unusual power drain and sends a low level alert to the Operations Console.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
Stillman: So how do you account for the power fluctuation, Mister Stillman? Any theories?

XO_Linard says:
CNS: Our reservations?

Host SC_Stillman says:
::glances at the CTO wiping his nose with the back of his hand:: CTO: Power fluctuation?

OPS_Edgemoor says:
EO: In honesty, Mister Powers, I've been tied up with other affairs and my knowledge of the situation is somewhat limited.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
Stillman: There was a power fluctuation recorded by ships sensors, which was traced back to the replicator you use often.

EO_Powers says:
OPS: What is that? ::points to the alert at the operations console::

CNS_Vekh says:
XO: Actually, I meant ... the Risealan government's reservations, concentration camps.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
Stillman: The one you're using to make moonshine.

Host SC_Stillman says:
::looks confused:: CTO/SO: The replicator in my quarters caused a power drain? I had no idea!

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::overhears the EO:: OPS/EO:  What's going on, gentlemen?

SO_Hammond says:
CTO: Correction sir, he was making that in his room.

OPS_Edgemoor says:
All: There has been another substantial power drain. EO: Good eyes, Mister Powers.

XO_Linard says:
CNS: Of course. It seems that the Risealan are a little harder on these people than imagined.

EO_Powers says:
OPS: Thank you, sir.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
OPS:  See if you can trace it back.

CNS_Vekh says:
XO: I think the only way to find it out would be to talk to Omin again. But I'm uncertain if I may have such an opportunity with the watchdogs around.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::nods:: SO: I stand corrected.  SC: My apologies. It was more than a drain, on closer inspection.

OPS_Edgemoor says:
CO: Captain, trying … I’ll need a moment.

CEO_Yeung says:
::frowns:: Stillman: Have you used one of the replicators in Fort Apache, recently?

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
EO/OPS:  Once you have identified the source, check sensor logs to see if you can identify who initiated it.

Host SC_Stillman says:
CEO: Well ... gee, everyone uses those replicators from time to time. ::thinks:: CEO: But I don't think I have been to the Fort in ... oh, a month or two. I accompanied Soria there the last time I went.

XO_Linard says:
CNS: Would you like for me to speak with Captain Turnbull? Perhaps we may be able to think of a reason for you to see him.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::is beginning to relax ever so slightly::

EO_Powers says:
::checks the power distribution records for the last few minutes::

SO_Hammond says:
::walks over to the CTO and whispers:: CTO: Sir, this is going nowhere fast.

Host SC_Stillman says:
CEO: You see, there was this poker game and... ::looks at Cha`Dak:: ...err, never mind.

CNS_Vekh says:
XO: I'd be willing to do it, sir. However, I have certain reservations on this issue that I'd like to bring up.

OPS_Edgemoor says:
EO: It looks like another power transfer … certainly has the signs of it.  Hmm, I don’t recall authorizing this type of power usage. ::runs a level 2 scan of all power resource tables::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::in a whisper:: SO: Mr. Hammond, do we know where the power was transferred to?

XO_Linard says:
::nods for him to tell her:: CNS: Go ahead....

CEO_Yeung says:
::takes a deep breath:: Stillman: So, how do you explain that we found your user codes were used to access that replicator just a few hours ago?

EO_Powers says:
*CEO*:There has been a power drain, sir.

SO_Hammond says:
::shakes his head:: CTO: Yes sir, the transporters, and only a few minutes before they beamed people up.

CNS_Vekh says:
XO: Going on this path, we may step on Prime Directive toes, sir. Riseal is a protectorate and we are bound to respect their internal affairs no matter our personal views and opinions.

CEO_Yeung says:
*EO*: A second one? Where does it originate?

Host SC_Stillman says:
::shocked:: SO: Oh my gosh! My user codes! I have to change them right away!

EO_Powers says:
OPS: There seems to be more power being used by the transporters than normal.

OPS_Edgemoor says:
::waits for results::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::nods thoughtfully:: SO: There is a connection here... ::turns his attention back to Stillman::

CNS_Vekh says:
XO: Though I'm inclined to go after it anyway. If the government is covering up inhumane treatment given to the opposing political movement ... that surely is something that the Federation Council should be aware off.

EO_Powers says:
*CEO*: All I know so far is that it was to the transporters.

OPS_Edgemoor says:
EO: Aww, good call again.  I am showing a power drain from the Arboretum environmental controls to the ships transporter systems.

SO_Hammond says:
SC: We'll get to that later.  ::listens to the EO and looks over at the CTO::

OPS_Edgemoor says:
EO: Cross checking with transporter logs… ::runs cross check ::

CEO_Yeung says:
*EO*: Trace the source, then get to that location on the double.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::looks from the SO to the CEO:: CEO/SO: I can no longer hold Mister Stillman for questioning. He has satisfied his duty to answer.

XO_Linard says:
::smiles:: CNS: It's nice to see an officer so dedicated to the rules, especially when it means bending them a little.

EO_Powers says:
*CEO*: From the arboretum environmental controls to the transporters.

Host SC_Stillman says:
::perks up:: CTO: I have? Err ... I mean, of course I have. Yes.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
EO/OPS:  To the transporters?  Which transporter was affected.  OPS:  Check the transporter logs to see what happened.

CEO_Yeung says:
::whispers to CTO and SO:: CTO\SO: There's been another power transfer to the transporters, from the arboretum environmental controls...

CNS_Vekh says:
XO: Well sir ... you can always blame me for being an Orion after all!

SO_Hammond says:
SC: You are confined to quarters for the time being Stillman … and I'll talk to you about the moonshine later.

OPS_Edgemoor says:
CO: Already on it.

CEO_Yeung says:
CTO\SO: Stillman doesn't seem to be our culprit.

SO_Hammond says:
CEO/CTO: Some how that doesn't surprise me.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::turns as the CEO speaks:: Computer: Computer, who is in the arboretum?

XO_Linard says:
::chuckles:: CNS: Always...

Host Computer says:
CTO: There are twelve officers and crewmembers in the Arboretum.

OPS_Edgemoor says:
CO: I’d like to transfer transporter controls to the bridge until we can resolve this situation.

EO_Powers says:
*CEO*: Do you want me to run a diagnostic on the transporters?

XO_Linard says:
::gets up from her chair:: CNS: Shall we go see the Captain then?

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: A turbolift car stalls in one of the tubes and the computer immediately reports it as out of use and sends a work order to Main Engineering.

CEO_Yeung says:
*EO*: Do so. And see who accessed the environmental controls.

CNS_Vekh says:
::smiles just a bit:: XO: Anyway sir, despite any concerns, I'd advise that we should get everything straight on this subject. Federation support to Riseal could be badly affected by it.

OPS_Edgemoor says:
CO: Aye Captain, there was unauthorized transport.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
Stillman: You are dismissed, Stillman.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
OPS:  Permission granted, Lieutenant.

Host SC_Stillman says:
::stands somewhat weakly:: CTO: Aye sir... ::makes his way out::

CNS_Vekh says:
XO: At your discretion, sir. ::rises from his chair and assumes an at attention stance::

EO_Powers says:
::heads for turbolift::

CEO_Yeung says:
CTO\SO: Let's go to the arboretum.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
OPS:  Where did the transport originate and what was the destination?

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::nods to the CEO, following him out of the office::

OPS_Edgemoor says:
Computer: Lock out all further power allocations from any station other than here on the bridge. ::works his console to finalize the lock out::

XO_Linard says:
::waves her hand:: CNS: Oh, at ease... ::heads out her door and to the nearest turbolift::

Host EO_Caillau says:
*CEO*: Sir, we've got a stalled turbolift. I'm sending a team to check it out.

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: 32 complaints about an inability to access the power they need flood in from different departments aboard the ship.

EO_Powers says:
TL: Transporter room one…

CNS_Vekh says:
::satisfied he teased the XO, assumes and at ease stance and follows her::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
Computer: Computer, seal the arboretum!

OPS_Edgemoor says:
CO: Destination appears to be the arboretum for one.

CEO_Yeung says:
::heads towards to arboretum:: *Caillau*: Understood, Ensign. Report at once when you have an update.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*Sonja Davore*: Cadet Davore, please respond.

OPS_Edgemoor says:
EO: Departments aren’t happy about the lock out … lets work fast.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::still following Lieutenant Commander Yeung::

SO_Hammond says:
::looks over at the CTO:: CTO: I'll bet that's not where the transfer was ordered, sir.  Sealing it won’t do a thing.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
OPS:  Have you given that information to Commander Cha`Dak?

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::stops, turning to Joseph:: SO: But isn't that were the transfer originated?

SO_Hammond says:
CEO: Where did the transfer originate, sir?

CEO_Yeung says:
::arrives at arboretum and enters::

EO_Powers says:
::exits the turbolift:: *OPS*: Which transporter was it, sir?

SO_Hammond says:
CTO: That's where the power came from.

OPS_Edgemoor says:
CO: Only power that was used was from the Arboretum … and from nowhere else.

XO_Linard says:
::gives the CNS a sidelong grin:: CNS: I'm very impressed with your research on this matter.

CEO_Yeung says:
SO: The arboretum environmental controls, to be specific.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
OPS:  Limit the lockout to the transporters.

CNS_Vekh says:
XO: Why ... thank you, sir. That's just my duty anyway.

CEO_Yeung says:
::looks around the arboretum::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::arrives with the CEO::

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: As Jon Yeung enters the Arboretum; he gets a hand in his chest and a menacing glare as Judge Anderson stops him in his tracks.

OPS_Edgemoor says:
*CTO*: Check the Arboretum, please ... send a security team.

CEO_Yeung says:
Self: Ooof!

SO_Hammond says:
CEO/CTO: I'm going to head down to main engineering and do some investigating.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
OPS:  Have internal sensors detected anyone or anything in the transporter rooms?

Host Judge_Anderson says:
CEO: Don't approach any closer … Judge Hershey is relaxing here.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::attempts to tackle Anderson::

CEO_Yeung says:
::steps back and recovers::

EO_Powers says:
::starts work on the transporters::

OPS_Edgemoor says:
::checks sensor logs and current scans as well::

Host EO_Caillau says:
*CEO*: Commander, this turbolift panel is totally burned out. It must have overloaded.

CEO_Yeung says:
CTO: Stand down, Lieutenant!

XO_Linard says:
::smiles at the CNS::

Host Judge_Anderson says:
::is tackled by Cha`Dak and wrestles around on the ground with him::

CEO_Yeung says:
::glares at Anderson:: Anderson: An attack wasn't necessary.

XO_Linard says:
::feels the turbolift come to a halt:: CNS: After you... ::motions to the door as it opens::

SO_Hammond says:
::tries to separate the CTO and Judge Anderson::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::pushes himself away from Anderson moving back to stand beside Jon, his breathing labored::

OPS_Edgemoor says:
*CTO*: What’s the situation down there?

CNS_Vekh says:
::steps onto the bridge as the XO indicates and walks to a position behind the Captains chair in the upper deck. Waits for the orders there::

OPS_Edgemoor says:
::runs a level 3 sensor sweep now ::

Host Judge_Anderson says:
CEO: Attack? What attack? Your Klingon just attacked me!

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*OPS*: Stand by, Lieutenant.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
Anderson: You attacked Lieutenant Commander Yeung first!

EO_Powers says:
::finishes the diagnostic::

XO_Linard says:
::heads to the command deck and nods to the CO in greeting:: CO: Captain.

CEO_Yeung says:
Anderson: You provoked him. Now stand aside, we're on an investigation.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
OPS:  Have you found anything, Lieutenant?

Host Judge_Anderson says:
CTO: I stopped him from approaching any further you ignorant mass of cells.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::snarls at Anderson, his anger barely in check at this stage of the situation::

OPS_Edgemoor says:
::makes sure any and all transporter usage must go through his console until this is resolved:: CO: Waiting on the scan results.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::nods to Kathleen:: XO: Greetings Commander.  How has your research going?

SO_Hammond says:
CEO: I'm heading to engineering, sir.  I'll keep you informed.

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The internal scan of all transporter rooms shows that only one Personnel Transporter is current manned by Chief Owen.

CEO_Yeung says:
::narrows his eyes:: Anderson: If you know what's good for you, you'll step aside and let us continue our investigation.

CEO_Yeung says:
::nods at SO::

SO_Hammond says:
::heads out for main engineering::

Host Judge_Anderson says:
CEO: Fine! CTO: If this were my planet, you'd be put to death by now!

XO_Linard says:
CO: Very well. ::nods in the CNS direction::  CO: Mister Vekh has given us something to think about. Would you like to discuss it in your ready room?

OPS_Edgemoor says:
CO: Scans indicated Chief Owen was manning one Personnel Transporter; I have it all locked out.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
Anderson: Where is your escort? Are you not supposed to be escorted around the ship at all times? I gave strict orders...

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
OPS:  Which transporter, Mister Edgemoor?

CEO_Yeung says:
::walks past Anderson towards the controls and mutters to himself:: Self: If he was on your Quo’noS, he’d be dead by now.

Host Judge_Anderson says:
::snarls:: CTO: Conduct your investigation and stay out of my way!

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::tries to kill the Judge by glaring at him intensely, but after a few moments of it not working, he moves to stand next  to the CEO::

OPS_Edgemoor says:
CO: I've got it Transporter room 1! Seal it off?

EO_Powers says:
Self: Damn…  CEO: All the diagnostics I have run show that the transporters are operating normally.

CEO_Yeung says:
::examines the controls for the people who have used it recently::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
CEO: Sir, my apologies. I lost my temper.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::nods:: OPS:  Contact Lieutenant Powers, have him report to  Transporter Room 1 to speak to Chief Owen.

SO_Hammond says:
::exits into main engineering and goes to the nearest console::  self: Lets see what I can find.

Host TRChief_Owen says:
*CTO*: There seems to be some problem here in transporter room one, Chief.

CEO_Yeung says:
::nods to CTO:: CTO: A bit excessive, but not your fault. It was he who provoked us.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
OPS: You have the Bridge.  XO: After you, Commander.  ::stands to follow the XO to her ready room::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*CPO Owen*: Go ahead, chief.

XO_Linard says:
::nods to the CNS to follow them and heads to the ready room with the CO::

Host TRChief_Owen says:
::confused, trying to get the doors to the transporter room open:: *CTO*: I seem to have been locked in the transporter room.

OPS_Edgemoor says:
::locks the transporter room down:: *EO*: The captain wants you to speak with Transporter Chief Owen. He was manning the transporters in transporter room one. It’s locked off; use your clearance to get in.

CNS_Vekh says:
::follows the senior officers, waiting to enter the ready room after them::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*CPO Owen*: Try authorization K`hora Gamma 7.

SO_Hammond says:
::begins to look for any pattern in the power transfers::

EO_Powers says:
::heads to transporter room one::  OPS: Aye sir.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::enters her ready room and sits down behind her desk.  Motions to the two chairs in front of it...:: XO/CNS:  Please be seated.

XO_Linard says:
::sits in a chair::

OPS_Edgemoor says:
*CTO*: TR Chief Owen was manning  the used transporter room. I suggest you get a detail down there the EO is on his way there as ordered as well

EO_Powers says:
::arrives at the transporter room, surprised to find the sealed doors already opened::

CNS_Vekh says:
::takes the empty chair::

Host TRChief_Owen says:
::uses the access code to open the doors and then gets a hyper-spanner to shove into the door to keep it from closing ... looking at them oddly::

OPS_Edgemoor says:
*EO* Security should be on its way Mr. Powers

Host TRChief_Owen says:
::looks up as Powers walks up:: EO: Oh, hello sir. What can I do for you?

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*CPO*: Chief?

XO_Linard says:
CO: It seems we have reason to believe that the Riseal have set up concentration camps on the southern hemisphere...

Host TRChief_Owen says:
::holds up his hand for Powers to wait one:: *CTO*: Yes Chief?

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::smile quickly fades at that thought:: XO:  What makes you think this?

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*CPO*: Are you still trapped, Chief?

OPS_Edgemoor says:
::fallows procedures and suspends Owns access to the computer ::

Host TRChief_Owen says:
*CTO*: No sir, got it all taken care of now. Mister Powers just showed up, I suppose to take a look at my doors. ::close the channel::

Host TRChief_Owen says:
EO: Now then sir, don't know what's wrong with them. One second the doors were working fine ... next thing I knew I was sealed in.

EO_Powers says:
CPO Owen: I’m not here about them. could you tell me who used the transporters chief?

CEO_Yeung says:
::checks the environmental control logs::

XO_Linard says:
::nods to the CNS:: CO; Commander Vekh has spoken with Omin Rego and he has told him of these "reservations" as the judges call it.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
CEO: Sir, with your permission I’d like to go check out TR1. These power fluctuations seem to be coinciding with the transports.

SO_Hammond says:
::goes through the list of personnel around the point of transfer and tries to narrow down the list of people::

Host TRChief_Owen says:
::surprised:: EO: Oh ... used the transporters? Well ... no one has used the transporters since we left Riseal, sir. No place to go, you see.

CEO_Yeung says:
CTO: All right, I think I can handle myself here.

CNS_Vekh says:
CO: And I've further researched on the subject and found evidence of land buying by the government and people transfer to those areas, sir

EO_Powers says:
CPO: an internal transport?

Host EO_Caillau says:
*CEO*: Commander, I'm going to go ahead and replace this turbolift panel. It's been totally fried, no chance at salvaging it.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::looks at the CNS:: CNS:  What did he tell you Commander?

OPS_Edgemoor says:
*CTO*: Owen is a suspect you might want to detain him. I’ve already suspended his transporter access.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::nods, turning and making his way to the turbolift on his way to transporter room one::

CNS_Vekh says:
CO: Omin told me he would not mind the death penalty, after spending so much time in the 'camps'.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*OPS*: Acknowledged. I had my suspicions.

CEO_Yeung says:
*EO_Caillau*: All right, Ensign.

Host TRChief_Owen says:
::shakes his head:: EO: No sir ... Chief Yeung doesn't like the crew to do that. Drains too much power.

EO_Powers says:
::takes a mental note of the last statement.::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::nods:: CNS:  I see ... it does sound suspiciously like a concentration camp.

OPS_Edgemoor says:
::gathers all the data he has collected from the  incident with chief Owen and puts it on a PADD and has an Ops crewmen run  it to the CTO::

EO_Powers says:
CPO: The transporter logs show that the transporters have been used in the past thirty minutes. Do you know anything about that?

CEO_Yeung says:
::looks around suspiciously at the judges, and resumes his work at the controls::

OPS_Edgemoor says:
::restores power as it was in the Arboretum ::

Host TRChief_Owen says:
This mission is dedicated the men and women who lost their lives in the recent events in New York City and Arlington, Virginia. Our hopes and prayers go out to the rescue workers, that they will be given the strength for the task at hand. God bless freedom everywhere.
