CSO_Marsland says:
::sitting on the bridge at Science One::

TO_Hembrook says:
:: In the Secutiry office, putting on her armor and getting her gear back on, then checking the rest of the Tactical personnel to make sure they are ready to go::

MO_Turok says:
::Sitting in sickbay going over the medical data on the delegates::

CEO_LtCmdr_Cha`Dak says:
::on the bridge, standing before the captain's chair::

OPS_Ryushi says:
::sitting at Ops, preparing a message to Admiral Miller at Starfleet Command::

FCO_Ilianor says:
::shakes his head, as he is riding in the turbolift:: Self: Guess I'll have to see Ryn some other time... ::the doors slide open and he quickly moves to his console::

CSO_Marsland says:
::sees Baran enter the bridge and take his console, gives him a grin::

CEO_LtCmdr_Cha`Dak says:
FCO: How did you manage to get her after me, Lieutenant?

CNS_Solaa says:
::in her chair mindlessly reading the reports::

CMO_Powers says:
::Sitting in sickbay ruminating over the events of the function::

TO_Hembrook says:
*CTO*: Boss, I had an idea we might want to run up the flagpole to the Captain, but I thought it might sound better coming from you than me...

CEO_LtCmdr_Cha`Dak says:
FCO: I had time to sharpen my teeth since the banquet!

CSO_Marsland says:
::shakes his head, almost imperceptibly as the FCO is lightly reprimanded::

Host CO_Storal says:
::sitting in the Conference Lounge:: Looma: I have turned the ship around and we are returning to Mortaq III as per your request. But Starfleet is going to ask for an explanation. I need to know what is going on.

CTO_Ltjg_Grey-feather says:
:: at tactical. just got there.  Checking weapons and shield status ::

XO_Naegle says:
::sitting with the Captain in the conference lounge::

Host B`Rotahn_Lor says:
::sits at the table, his calm manner returning somewhat::

Looma Pyahl says:
::looks to his superior in reply to the CO::

FCO_Ilianor says:
::raises an eyebrow as he plops himself down:: CEO: And you still sharpened your teeth nevertheless after the banquet, sir? I thought we were supposed to come to the bridge as soon as possible? ::he grins to himself, as he conveniently forgets that he himself was late:: CEO: I am plotting a course back to Mortaq III, warp 7. Shall I, sir?

CNS_Solaa says:
ALL: Anyone know what's going on?

Host B`Rotahn_Lor says:
::politely folds all hands in front of him on the table:: CO: But of course Captain. I can understand that this must be a shock to you as well.

CEO_LtCmdr_Cha`Dak says:
FCO: Oh, please, I would be honoured if you would gift us with your famed piloting skills. Oh, and Lieutenant ..... ?

OPS_Ryushi says:
CEO:  Sir, shall I send an automated message to Starfleet Command, or Contact Admiral Miller personally?

CSO_Marsland says:
CNS: Not really. Except that we're supposed to be returning to Mortaq 3.

Host CO_Storal says:
::nods to B'Rotahn::

XO_Naegle says:
::looks at B'Rotahn Lor, concerned::

FCO_Ilianor says:
::he activates the warp engines, and the ship lurches forward, entering warp:: CEO: Yes, sir? ::smiles::

CEO_LtCmdr_Cha`Dak says:
OPS: Open a channel if you can. Once you have an open line, let me know.

CMO_Powers says:
::walks out of his office and sees the MO:: MO: Why are you not at the banquet?

CEO_LtCmdr_Cha`Dak says:
::leans over the back of Baran's chair:: FCO: I didn't really sharpen my teeth. That was a joke.

MO_Turok says:
::Knocks on the door of the CMO's office:: CMO: Are you alright sir?

CSO_Marsland says:
::using his many sensors available to him, Marsland taps into the subspace comm traffic, listening for any messages sent from Mortaq or involving the Mortaquians::

CEO_LtCmdr_Cha`Dak says:
::stands up straight, looking quite smug::

OPS_Ryushi says:
CEO:  Aye, sir.... Opening a channel to Starbase 366.  ::attempts to open the comm channel::

MO_Turok says:
CMO: Sir I thought I might be needed here if it were a medical emergency.

CMO_Powers says:
::looks back to his office, confused at why the MO knocked on his door when he had just walked out:: MO: I'm a little sore but I'm alright.

CTO_Ltjg_Grey-feather says:
*TO*:  Whets on your mind ensign?

Host B`Rotahn_Lor says:
CO: Let me first to apologize about this abrupt change of plans, Captain. Would you like me to help you contact Starfleet to let them know of our situation?

CMO_Powers says:
MO: If what were a medical emergency?

FCO_Ilianor says:
CEO: Ah, I see. Well, I didn't really wash my hair, slap on a fresh, clean, pressed uniform and generally beautified myself, either. Though I understand Klingons value their dental hygiene, no? Maybe you should have sharpened your teeth, after all, sir. ::smiles:: We are now at Warp 7, on a direct course for Mortaq III. Why are going back, sir?

Host CO_Storal says:
B'Rotahn:I have my officers handling that. I will need to file a report with them momentarily. But I can send any correspondence you may have with the report.

TO_Hembrook says:
*CTO*: I'd like to launch a class 8 Warp probe with tactical avionics into the system ahead of us to put some eyes and ears in there for a recon. It' be nice to see how furry the hairball we are about to jump into is.

CEO_LtCmdr_Cha`Dak says:
::turns at looks at Tom for assistance, as his wit just ain't as sharp as Baran's::

MO_Turok says:
CMO: The ambassador received a message at the reception and quickly left with the CO sir.

OPS_Ryushi says:
CEO:  Channel Open, sir.  Would you like a visual?

CNS_Solaa says:
::wonders why they are talking about teeth...::

CEO_LtCmdr_Cha`Dak says:
OPS: Aye, Ensign. On screen.

CTO_Ltjg_Grey-feather says:
*TO*:  Good thinking.  You keep this up and I will be unemployed.  I will run it past the XO and see what she has to say.

CEO_LtCmdr_Cha`Dak says:
::turns to face the viewscreen::

OPS_Ryushi says:
::puts the Admiral onscreen::

Host B`Rotahn_Lor says:
::blinks as his smile fades slightly:: CO: A report? Whatever for? Surely a simple change of plans wouldn't call for a full report would it?

CMO_Powers says:
MO: Really? I hope it wasn't because of the incident caused by Ryn. Make sure sickbay is prepared and get all medical staff on standby.

CSO_Marsland says:
::looks up at the CEO:: CEO: You know you can't beat him, don't you?

Action: Admiral Miller appears on the screen. Cute as she is, she isn't looking the part right now.

MO_Turok says:
CMO: I don't believe it was sir. I will prepare sir.

Admiral Miller says:
COM: CEO: Is there a problem Commander?

FCO_Ilianor says:
::watches as the viewscreen comes alive; while the CEO's attention is turned, he leans over to the side and whispers to the CNS:: CNS: Ryn, honey? You listening? Feeling better, I guess you must still be pretty upset after what happened between you and the doctor... ::he glances up at the viewscreen as Admiral Miller appears, then he looks back::

Host CO_Storal says:
B'Rotahn: You must understand. We were under orders to bring you to Earth for your meeting with the Federation Council. By deviating from those mission parameters. I am required to file a report.

TO_Hembrook says:
*CTO*: Aye Sir. All the Tactical teams are suited up and ready. If you didn't need me for anything else, I was going to leave Lt. Abbott in charge of Security and take Alpha team with me to deck 2 and baby-sit the delegation until we get them home. Besides, it'll put a team real close to the bridge if you need us.

Host CO_Storal says:
B'Rotahn:Nothing formal, but my superiors will want to know what is going on

Host B`Rotahn_Lor says:
::a dawning realization sweeps his face:: CO: Ahh, yes, of course Captain. Again, my apologies. I am not accustomed to your... Federation ways....

CNS_Solaa says:
FCO: I don't wish to talk about it, Baran... please... ::takes a deep breath and stares at the screen::

Host CO_Storal says:
B'Rotahn:It's understandable Mr. Lor. ::grins and nods::

CTO_Ltjg_Grey-feather says:
*TO*: Deploy a team to patrol engineering deck also.  I don't like surprises and this stinks of surprise

CEO_LtCmdr_Cha`Dak says:
COM: Miller: Admiral, we are returning to Mortaq 3, at the Ambassadors request. ::paces to the left a few steps:: The Mortaquian delegate received a communiqué, and they requested that they be returned to Mortaq 3 immediately.

TO_Hembrook says:
*CTO*: Aye Sir, I'll send Lt. Verall and Gamma team down there, Lt. Abbott will stay here with Beta team.

Host B`Rotahn_Lor says:
::rises from his seat:: CO: Well then... ::glances at Looma::... if you will excuse us Captain. I would like to return to my... room... please...

FCO_Ilianor says:
::sighs:: CNS: Well, I'll come by later, sweetie, with a special treat, if you want to talk later... in the meantime... ::he winks, and turns back to his console:: Self: Hmm... maybe if we increased speed to maximum warp...

Admiral Miller says:
COM: CEO: You're what? ::looks aghast:: What for? Did they give a reason?

TO_Hembrook says:
::Takes her team to the turbolift and steps in:: TL: Deck 2

Host CO_Storal says:
B'Rothan:Of course Ambassador, but I will need a reason.

CNS_Solaa says:
::nods to Baran:: FCO: Okay...

MO_Turok says:
CMO: We are ready for any situation sir

CTO_Ltjg_Grey-feather says:
*TO*: Good keep me updated...oh ensign if you are sending any new security men to engineering, remind them that most things down there don't take well to phaser fire

OPS_Ryushi says:
::begins to monitor all communication frequencies as the Apache draws closer to Mortaquian space::

CSO_Marsland says:
::watches the CEO and Admiral Miller converse, wondering if he'll ever get put in that position::

CEO_LtCmdr_Cha`Dak says:
COM: Miller: Captain Storal is extracting their reasons as we speak, Admiral. I had the impression there was some type of emergency back on their home world, but as of yet we do not know.

CMO_Powers says:
MO: That was quick. Good job. Now keep yourself busy till we're needed. I'll be on the bridge if you need me.

MO_Turok says:
CMO: Aye sir.
TO_Hembrook says:
*CTO*: I'll be sure to remind Lt. Verall and his people Sir. Alpha team is now on deck 2. I'll send the Security detail here back to their usual duties. Hembrook out.

Host B`Rotahn_Lor says:
::stands from his seat and heads for the door, turning slightly to smile wearily at him:: CO: I am tired Captain... is that not reason enough to rest?

CMO_Powers says:
::exits sickbay and heads for the TL::

TO_Hembrook says:
::Steps off the turbolift and deploys her team on deck 2::

XO_Naegle says:
::chuckles:: CO: I think he misunderstood.

Host CO_Storal says:
B'Rotahn: Im sorry, I meant a reason for the course change Sir...

CMO_Powers says:
::enters TL:: TL: Bridge

Host CO_Storal says:
::nods to the XO::

FCO_Ilianor says:
::he watches the viewscreen again, making slight adjustments to the heading, then he quickly turns back to the CNS:: CNS: Are you sure you're alright? I'm worried for you, Ryn...

CNS_Solaa says:
FCO: I'll be okay. Don't worry. I'll be happy when we get these people off the ship...

Admiral Miller says:
::looks highly annoyed as she leans in closer to the screen to glare at the CEO:: COM: CEO:  Well you better tell him to find out and find out quickly... I have about 20 Starfleet Admirals here waiting to meet these people and complete the treaty arrangements.

CSO_Marsland says:
::overhears the FCO and CNS, and chimes in:: CNS/FCO: As am I Ryn.. just because you're a counselor doesn't mean you can't talk to us.. ::grins::

CEO_LtCmdr_Cha`Dak says:
COM: Miller: Yes Admiral. I'll have Captain Storal report as soon as he returns from meeting with B’Rotahn Lor.  

CNS_Solaa says:
::smiles weakly at Tom:: CSO: Yeah, I know... but we're on duty now... ::points to the viewscreen:: And an admiral breathing down our necks...

FCO_Ilianor says:
::looks up:: CEO: Should I drop us out of warp while we resolve this, sir?

CEO_LtCmdr_Cha`Dak says:
FCO: Negative, Lieutenant. Maintain course and speed.

OPS_Ryushi says:
~~~FCO:  Sir, do you think it wise... to carry on a conversation while the Admiral is observing our bridge crew?~~~

Host B`Rotahn_Lor says:
::frowns:: CO: My people have become sick Captain. They need me with them right now.

CSO_Marsland says:
::smiles comfortingly at the Counselor while turning back to his console::

CMO_Powers says:
::exits the TL and walks onto the bridge. Sees the admiral on the viewscreen and takes a minute to look at her before heading over to the CSO::

Host CO_Storal says:
B'Rotahn:Sick? What kind of illness?

XO_Naegle says:
::raises an eyebrow at that revelation::

TO_Hembrook says:
::Patrols deck 2 with her Tactical team::

CTO_Ltjg_Grey-feather says:
*XO*: Commander when you have a second I would like to speak with you

CNS_Solaa says:
::sees the CMO enter the bridge and tenses::

Host CO_Storal says:
::overhears the message and nods to the XO to take it::

FCO_Ilianor says:
~~~OPS: ENSIGN, do you think it wise... to care whether or not I carry on a conversation while the admiral is observing our bridge crew? I'm just trying to help Ryn.~~~

Admiral Miller says:
::scowls:: COM: CEO: Good. I'll be waiting. Miller out ::closes the connection::

XO_Naegle says:
::nods to the CO:: Lor: Excuse me, Ambassador. ::walks to the door of the lounge and out into the corridor::

OPS_Ryushi says:
~~~FCO:  Of course.  Sorry, Sir.~~~

CSO_Marsland says:
~~~FCO: I sure hope Ryn is alright...~~~

XO_Naegle says:
*CTO*: Yes, Lieutenant, what can I help you with?

CMO_Powers says:
CSO: I see the lovely admiral is already on our backs. What's going on? ::notices Ryn and regrets what he just said about the admiral straight away::

CSO_Marsland says:
::sees the Doctor enter and approach him:: CMO: What can I do for you doctor?

FCO_Ilianor says:
CEO: Well. I was going to suggest increasing speed to maximum warp... but I guess now we've got a problem... sir?

CEO_LtCmdr_Cha`Dak says:
::turns to Ens. Ryushi:: OPS: Thank you, Ensign.

Host B`Rotahn_Lor says:
::moves out of the XO's way with a bow and a warm smile:: CO: I.... do not know exactly... Captain... my... ::looks a little uneasy::.. message was unclear... only that I was to return at once...

CEO_LtCmdr_Cha`Dak says:
:: in a loud voice :: ALL: In the future, can I not have a murmured conversation in the background whilst communicating with an Admiral?!

CSO_Marsland says:
::replies:: CMO: We are turning around and heading back to Mortaq 3, that's all I know so far. That and Admiral Miller isn't happy.

CTO_Ltjg_Grey-feather says:
*XO*: The TO has suggested to me sending a class 8 warp probe ahead of us with the tactical configuration, So we are not surprised.  She may have a point

CSO_Marsland says:
CEO: What's the big deal? I thought it made us look busy Commander? ::grins::

OPS_Ryushi says:
::closes the comm channel::  CEO:  Aye, sir.

FCO_Ilianor says:
CEO: No problem, sir! ::grinning, he looks at his console:: The speed, sir? ::smiles::

Host CO_Storal says:
::nods to the Ambassador:: B'Rotahn:Then by all means you will get there. ::stands:: You may return to your room. I will notify you when we reach your home world.

CSO_Marsland says:
::sarcastically:: CEO: From now on, I shall stand at attention whilst comms are in progress.

CEO_LtCmdr_Cha`Dak says:
CSO: It made you look like a bunch of gossiping women!

FCO_Ilianor says:
CEO: Hey, don't be sexist, sir. It's not just for women. The speed, sir?

CNS_Solaa says:
::folds her arms and re-reads the reports again, trying to look busy::

Host B`Rotahn_Lor says:
::looks immensely relieved as he bows to the CO:: CO: Thank you, Captain.... thank you very much... ::nods to Looma as they both leave the room and head back to their quarters::

CMO_Powers says:
CEO: I was getting an update from the bridge crew since nobody here had the thought or courtesy to even bother to tell me that there was a situation let alone what it was. If there is a possible medical situation I would like to hear about it from the bridge rather than from junior officers.

CEO_LtCmdr_Cha`Dak says:
FCO: Lieutenant, I repeat, hold our present course and speed. I will not ask again.

CSO_Marsland says:
::grins even wider, hoping Cha`Dak doesn't take this the wrong way, and mutters:: CEO: One of these days, Klingon... One of these days..

CSO_Marsland says:
CMO: We don't know yet Doc.

CEO_LtCmdr_Cha`Dak says:
:: snarls a toothy grin at Tom ::

Host CO_Storal says:
::he sits back down and taps his combadge:: *OPS*:Ensign, patch me thru to Admiral Miller. Forward it down here please.

CEO_LtCmdr_Cha`Dak says:
:: walks around to the back of the captain’s chair, and leans on its back::

TO_Hembrook says:
::Patrolling the corridors on deck 2 with her team::

XO_Naegle says:
*CTO*: Lieutenant, while I commend the ensign's initiative, launching a probe into unknown territory might lead to more unhappy consequences than it solves.  So, I'm sorry, but no.

OPS_Ryushi says:
*CO*: Aye, sir.  ::opens a channel to Admiral Miller, patching it through to Captain Storal's office::

Action: The TO notices a lone figure wandering about the corridors and recognizes it as one of the delegates.

CTO_Ltjg_Grey-feather says:
*XO*:  Understood commander.

XO_Naegle says:
::walks back into the Conference Lounge::

XO_Naegle says:
*CTO*: Very well, Naegle out.

Host CO_Storal says:
::taps his combadge again:: *CMO*:Doctor Powers, I would like to see the results of the Mortaquian medical scan.

TO_Hembrook says:
Delegate: Excuse me delegate... are you lost? Do you require some assistance?

CMO_Powers says:
*CO*: Aye sir. *MO*: Do we have the results from the medical scan yet?

Brolyn Poom says:
::jumps in fright at the TO's words:: TO: Oh! ::his tiny second set of hands sink beneath his cloak::

TO_Hembrook says:
Poom: Mr. Poom... aren't the delegates supposed to be in their quarters?

Host CO_Storal says:
COM:Admiral Miller: Sir, Mr. Lor claims that his people are sick and that his people requested that he returned home immediately. When I inquired about the nature of the illness, he wouldn't say.

XO_Naegle says:
::walks up to the Captain as he's talking to Admiral Miller::

CEO_LtCmdr_Cha`Dak says:
CSO: Anything on long range sensors, Mr. Marsland?

CSO_Marsland says:
::checks sensor data in the area of Mortaq III::

CSO_Marsland says:
CEO: Checking again Sir.

Admiral Miller says:
::pops up on his screen, her lovely face a horrid scowl:: COM: CO: What do you mean he wouldn't say?? What kind of a Captain are you if you can't find out the simplest of details??

XO_Naegle says:
::shakes her head at the Admiral's words::

Brolyn Poom says:
::nervously:: TO: Yes, of course... but... Umm... I would be if I knew the way.... ::smiles weakly::

TO_Hembrook says:
::Stands there with her team, watching the nervous delegate, waiting for his response::

CEO_LtCmdr_Cha`Dak says:
FCO: ETA, Mr. Ilianor?

Host CO_Storal says:
::his eyes darken:: COM:Miller: Sir...What would you have me do... put a tired and worn man on a rack and get it out of him..

TO_Hembrook says:
Poom: I'd be happy to escort you Sir, please come with us. ::team surrounds him and walks him to his door::

FCO_Ilianor says:
::he looks up from his console:: CEO: Approximately three and a half hours, sir, at current speed.

CEO_LtCmdr_Cha`Dak says:
FCO: Thank you. 

Admiral Miller says:
::looks at him disdainfully:: CO: Don't be daft, of course I wouldn't! But I'm sure he could have told you what was going on in further detail Captain. He knows how important these talks are.

XO_Naegle says:
::speaks up:: COM:Miller: Admiral, we are doing the best we can.  We know how important this is too, sir.

CTO_Ltjg_Grey-feather says:
CEO: Something about this whole mess stinks commander. Hu'tegh DaH Qo'noS wo'Daq nonlaw' vay' :: grins ::

CNS_Solaa says:
CEO: So what do we do once we get to Mortaq III?

CSO_Marsland says:
CEO: Sir, nothing out of the ordinary on long range sensors.

MO_Turok says:
*CMO*: Sir the data is still compiling sir.

Host CO_Storal says:
COM:Miller: Im sorry Sir, but if you would have seen the eyes on a man who represents a race of people that are ill and in need. I could do nothing much else at the moment. He requested that he be able to return to his quarters and rest. I will find out more upon our arrival at Mortaq III.

CEO_LtCmdr_Cha`Dak says:
::nods to the CSO in acknowledgement:: CNS: Good question, Counselor. It depends on why exactly we are returning there. It may be that the Mortaquians have decided against becoming a part of the Federation.

CMO_Powers says:
*MO*: Really? It's taking some time. *CO*: I'm afraid the medical scan results are not in yet sir.

Brolyn Poom says:
::cowers under all the scary looking officers as his hands cover his head:: TO: Okay okay... I'm sorry.... ::whimpers:: I won't wander off again....

CEO_LtCmdr_Cha`Dak says:
CNS: What do you think, Ryn?

Host CO_Storal says:
::he hears the CMO's message and taps his combadge:: *CMO*:Acknowledged Doctor, but I need that information yesterday. Storal out.

TO_Hembrook says:
Poom: We are only concerned for your safety, Delegate Poom. Please be at ease. We will take you to your room to wait until you arrive home again.

CNS_Solaa says:
CEO: I'm afraid I don't know what is happening. One minute I'm in the Lounge and the next they call us to the Bridge. Probably some rebel group going to attack the Capital or something... who knows...

Admiral  Miller says:
COM: CO: Too right you will, Captain. I expect to know exactly what's going on by the time you get to Mortaq III. ::closes the channel::

XO_Naegle says:
CO: Why does she have to treat us that way?

CMO_Powers says:
CNS: I think it's medical. The Captain keeps asking for the medical scan results on the mort... aliens.

TO_Hembrook says:
::Leads Poom to his door:: Poom: Here you are Delegate. I believe these are your quarters?

CEO_LtCmdr_Cha`Dak says:
:: looks at the CMO :: CMO: Did you notice anything unusual from the scans?

FCO_Ilianor says:
CNS: You sure have a knack for making negative suggestions, dontcha, Ryn? ::grins, as he seriously starts to question Ryn's state of mind...::

Host CO_Storal says:
::after the screen closes he sticks his tongue out at the monitor:: XO: Because she can. ::chuckles::

CTO_Ltjg_Grey-feather says:
:: scanning for tactical contacts :: CNS: Counselor take it easy, jumping to conclusions won’t help.

CMO_Powers says:
CEO: They haven't come in yet. There must be something though for the Captain to be so interested.

Brolyn Poom says:
::smiles and jumps up and down excitedly, hugging the TO, and jumping up and down with her too:: TO: Oh! How marvelous! Thank you!!!

CEO_LtCmdr_Cha`Dak says:
::nods:: OPS: Is the captain still talking to the Admiral, Ensign?

CSO_Marsland says:
::stands, addressing the CEO:: CEO: Sir, I'll be in my office or Stellar Cartography if you need me.

OPS_Ryushi says:
::checks the Ship's comm systems::  CEO:  No, sir.

Host CO_Storal says:
XO:What is your take on the Mortaquians?

CEO_LtCmdr_Cha`Dak says:
CSO: Of course, Lieutenant.

CSO_Marsland says:
::walks to the TL, entering it::

CNS_Solaa says:
CTO: I'm not jumping to conclusions... I'm just speculating. You never know...

XO_Naegle says:
CO: They seem a bit secretive, sir.  I just don't know what to think.

TO_Hembrook says:
::Stands there looking like the long-suffering evangelical in the land of heathens:: Poom: You are quite welcome Sir. Good day. ::Continues her patrol::

FCO_Ilianor says:
CNS: Ryn, maybe they just left something on their planet... and really, REALLY needed to get it. ::winks::

Host B`Rotahn_Lor says:
::walks into his quarters with Looma Pyahl at his side:: Looma: Can you please prepare my bed? I am very tired. I believe I am still in the ways of my planet.

CSO_Marsland says:
TL: Deck 9, Stellar Sciences.

CNS_Solaa says:
::smiles at Baran:: FCO: That's it exactly.

XO_Naegle says:
CO: By the way, the message from Grey-feather was that Ensign Hembrook wanted to send a Class 8 warp probe out ahead of us.  I vetoed the idea, largely because of what happened on the Romulan planet.  If you'd like to override me, it's okay.

Looma Pyahl says:
::bows:: Lor: Of course, my Yahn....

CNS_Solaa says:
FCO: They left their THIRD set of arms... and Doctor Powers has to reattach them all. ::smirks::

CSO_Marsland says:
::sighs impatiently as the TL takes him to Deck 9::

TO_Hembrook says:
*CTO*: Boss, I just saw Delegate Poom roaming the corridors. We escorted him to his quarters. I only mention it because you wanted to be updated on any events. All quiet besides that.

Host CO_Storal says:
::stands:: XO:It's ok. I probably would have done the same Janet. ::sighs:: Time to let the crew know what is going on.

CMO_Powers says:
CNS: They can attach their on third set of arms.

CTO_Ltjg_Grey-feather says:
*TO*: Thank you ensign.  Grey-feather out

XO_Naegle says:
::stands:: CO: I imagine the rumors are flying already.

CMO_Powers says:
*MO*: The captain is on me about those results. Can you see what you can do to hurry them up?

Host B`Rotahn_Lor says:
::sits in the couch and sighs:: Looma: Alas, never ends the ways of our people.

FCO_Ilianor says:
::looks to the CMO, then to the CNS:: CMO: I'm sure you are an excellent reconstructive surgeon, doctor. ::grins::

CSO_Marsland says:
::enters the Stellar Science labs::

CNS_Solaa says:
OPS: Ryushi... can you up the processing speed of the Medical Database?

CTO_Ltjg_Grey-feather says:
*XO*: Commander ensign Hembrook just found one of the delegates wandering the corridors apparently lost.  Something is funny about our guests, ma'am

Host CO_Storal says:
::enters the bridge:: All: Ok people here is what is going on...

OPS_Ryushi says:
ALL:  Captain on the bridge!

CSO_Marsland says:
::in his best angry voice:: ALL: Ensign Burrows, get over here right now!

XO_Naegle says:
::enters the bridge behind the captain::

CEO_LtCmdr_Cha`Dak says:
::stands to attention :: Captain, we are three hours away from Mortaq three. Long range sensors show no activity.

FCO_Ilianor says:
::glances over to the captain, as he steps onto the bridge with an announcement of some sort::

OPS_Ryushi says:
CNS:  The computer cores are due for a bit of an upgrade, Lieutenant.

CNS_Solaa says:
OPS: Yes. They are incredibly overdue.

Looma Pyahl says:
Lor: Isn't that always the way my Yahn? I had suspected this for sometime now...

XO_Naegle says:
::walks over to tactical:: CTO: Tell her to keep her eyes on them.  I'm not sure I trust them either, Lieutenant.

CMO_Powers says:
CO: Sir, I'm getting those results as quick as possible. Is there any particular reason you want them?

OPS_Ryushi says:
