USS Apache - 10603.24 - "Interference"
Host Tailjn says:
The senior staff of the Apache are about to disembark for their mission to the Betreka nebula in two runabouts - the Neosho and the Cumberland. While the Neosho is carrying the CSO, CNS, CIV, CO and Tailjn, the Cumberland brings the XO, OPS, CTO and SO. 
Host Tailjn says:
Several... enhancements have been made to the runabouts, to facilitate the successful completion of the mission.... is Likaan in the Betreka Nebula? 
Host Tailjn says:
<<<<<<<<<<<Begin>>>>>>>>>>
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
::leaning against the Neosho, checking her nails::
SO_LtJG_York says:
::stands in the shuttlebay, watching the crew preparing...then brings up the nerve to talk to the CNS and walks over::
XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
::straightens her uniform as she enters the Shuttlebay::
Host Tailjn says:
ACTION: The crew slowly make their way to the shuttlebay 2, at Starbase 366, next to the two prepped shuttles...
OPS_Lt_Ryushi says:
::standing on the deck of the shuttlebay outside the Cumberland, awaiting the arrival of the XO::
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
::looks up as the SO walks over:: SO: Can I help you, Lieutenant?
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
::enters the shuttle bay and begins to walk around the Neosho::
SO_LtJG_York says:
CNS: Uhm, Counselor....I just wanted to say thank you, for your assistance after the incident and...I apologise for any...remarks I may have made while disoriented. ::looks ashamed::
OPS_Lt_Ryushi says:
::walks over to the XO and gestures:: XO: This is the Cumberland, Commander.
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
SO: Oh, I don't even remember anything you said.
XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
::nods and smiles:: OPS: Thank you, Mrrr. Rrryushi.
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
SO: So your... apology... is for naught. But it was sincere and I accept it.
SO_LtJG_York says:
CNS: Alright then. Thank you anyway. ::looks at her, then walks away::
Host Tailjn says:
::she walks into the shuttlebay, escorted by two security guards:: CO: Are we ready to disembark, captain?
Host Tailjn says:
ACTION: Adm. Iverson enters the shuttlebay and heads for the CO and XO.
SO_LtJG_York says:
::looks at the Metron woman and feels the anger getting the best of him again::
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
XO:We should be ready to go once everyone gets here.
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
::looks as the purple-haired woman comes in and thinks, "We are not going to get along well..."::
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
Tailjn:Are you ready to go?
XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
::nods:: CO: I hope this goes well, Captain. Godspeed and good luck.
Host Tailjn says:
CO: I've been ready for quite some time. 
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
::looks over and sees the Admiral:: XO:Agreed.. Good luck as well.
SO_LtJG_York says:
::gives the Metron a once look over, then reports to the XO::
Host Tailjn says:
<Adm. Iverson> CO/XO: Captain. Commander.
CIV_LtJG_Davis says:
::pops into the shuttle bay shortly after the brass::
OPS_Lt_Ryushi says:
CO/XO: Sirs... ::nods in the direction of the approaching Admiral::
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
Admiral:We are just about ready to depart Sir. They are loading the last of our equipment.
Host Tailjn says:
<Adm. Iverson> CO: Excellent. I came to wish you good luck. We cannot have weapons runners operating in Federation space... but don't take unnecessary risks. Captain. ::she nods, and exits::
CIV_LtJG_Davis says:
::wanders around a bit, not really sure what to do with himself::
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
Admiral:Aye...
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
::goes back to checking her nails, and thinks, This'll be a piece of cake... I'll try not to poison her...::
XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
::salutes the Admiral, then stands at ease next to the CO::
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
All:Alright people. You have your runabout assignments. Lets mount up!
SO_LtJG_York says:
::nods to the Captain and moves closer to the runabout::
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
::walks over to the Neosho::
CIV_LtJG_Davis says:
::follows Storal into the Neosho::
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
::straightens up as the CO comes around and smiles:: CO: Captain.
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
CNS:You look a bit unnerved Ensign. Is everything ok?
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
::laughs:: CO: Me? I'm hardly ever "unnerved," sir.
Host Tailjn says:
@::she climbs into the Neosho...::
OPS_Lt_Ryushi says:
::nods toward the admiral and confidently boards the Cumberland, taking a seat at the Flight Control console at the front of the runabout::
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
@::steps in the Neosho::
Host Tailjn says:
@CNS: Counselor. ::she nods...::
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
@::chuckles::CNS:Ill believe that if you do? ::enters the runabout::
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
@Self: Fine, don't believe... I was telling the truth...
SO_LtJG_York says:
$::walks into the Cumberland, and takes his station at the Science console::
XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
::Heads into the Cumberland::
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
@::walks over to the flight console and begins to prep for flight::
CIV_LtJG_Davis says:
@::has a seat in the Neosho and folds hands in lap::
Host Tailjn says:
ACTION: The shuttlebay gets ready for launch of the two shuttles...
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
@::looks at the CIV and smiles, sitting down next to him::
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
@COM:OPS:Are you ready Lieutenant?
OPS_Lt_Ryushi says:
$XO: I'll be covering flight control, operations, and communications, sir. In the absence of our CTO for the beginning of the mission, it would be advisable for someone to cover tactical, sir.
CIV_LtJG_Davis says:
@::offers a nod to Niventra, not really recognizing her face right away::
Host Tailjn says:
ACTION: As the shuttles are powered up, the crew become acquainted with the modifications made to the shuttles....
OPS_Lt_Ryushi says:
$COM: CO: Aye, sir, we are ready.
Host Tailjn says:
ACTION: The shuttles have been equipped with ablative armour... holoemitter technology installed across the hull... holofilter communications system... sensor masks... and enhanced weapons rollbars.
XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
$OPS: I can handle that forrr now, Lt. ::takes a seat and makes herself comfy::
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
@COM:SBOPS:This is the Neosho. Requesting clearance for departure...
SO_LtJG_York says:
$::goes over the new additions to his console and makes himself familiar with the new sensory equipment::
OPS_Lt_Ryushi says:
$COM: SBOPS: Cumberland to Starbase Operations, requesting clearance for parallel departure with the Neosho.
Host Tailjn says:
<SBOPS>COM: Neosho, Cumberland: Clearance granted. Good luck.
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
@COM:SBOPS:Roger that..See you soon. Neosho out.
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
@::Increases power and slowly eases the runabout out the shuttlebay::
Host Tailjn says:
ACTION: The shuttlebay doors fully open, allowing the runabouts to exit...
SO_LtJG_York says:
$::brings the LRS and SRS online::
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
@CIV: I'm Bellatrix.
OPS_Lt_Ryushi says:
$COM: SBOPS: Clearance confirmed. Cumberland out. ::powers the thrusters and slides out of the bay, parallel with the Neosho::
CIV_LtJG_Davis says:
::extends hand to her along with a small smile, realizing she must be the new counselor - and reasonably telepathic...::
Host Tailjn says:
ACTION: The shuttlebay empties, allowing for the shuttles to depart.... and depart they must, for who knows what Likaan will do next in Betreka...
SO_LtJG_York says:
$::turns around:: XO: Sir?
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
::thinks, I'm more than "reasonably telepathic", honey...::
CIV_LtJG_Davis says:
@CNS: Lieutenant Davis.
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
::takes his hand and smiles::
CIV_LtJG_Davis says:
@CNS: I have no official role here. 
OPS_Lt_Ryushi says:
$COM: CO: Course heading, Captain?
XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
$SO: Yes, Lt Yorrk?
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
@CIV: Well, don't say that! You were obviously put here for a reason. Besides, you're wearing yellow.
Host Tailjn says:
ACTION: It will take four hours to get to the edge of the Betreka nebula...
SO_LtJG_York says:
$XO: It was just us for that run from the Metron's the last time around...do you believe this story?
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
@COM:OPS:Lay in the course to the Betreka Nebula. Best speed...
CIV_LtJG_Davis says:
@CNS: Yea, I wanted red, but they said down in supply that I didn't rate it. Then they told me to go away.
CIV_LtJG_Davis says:
@::shrugs::
CIV_LtJG_Davis says:
@CNS: I figured yellow was better than nothing.
Host Tailjn says:
@CNS: If you don't mind, I really would appreciate if you would keep the chatter until after we've fully departed and are on our way.
XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
$SO: I'm not surre quite what to believe, actually. I'll have to see what we find out herre.
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
@Tailjn: Would you rather us be silent?
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
@OPS:Engage on my mark...3...2..1..Mark. ::engages course and speed::
CSO_LtCmdr_Robertson says:
@:: looks around ::
CIV_LtJG_Davis says:
@::wonders if Tailjn sat on a nail or something::
SO_LtJG_York says:
$::nods, quite annoyed still:: XO: Aye.
OPS_Lt_Ryushi says:
$COM: CO: Aye. Course laid in, warp 9.5. Engaging... ::powers the runabouts impulse engines, takes the ship in a grand arc around the pylon of the station, and engages the warp engines, jumping into warp directly behind the Neosho::
Host Tailjn says:
@CNS: How thoughtful, thanks.
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
@Tailjn: You may join in on our conversation.
Host Tailjn says:
ACTION: The runabouts go to warp, heading for the Betreka nebula...
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
@Tailjn: Hi, I'm Bellatrix. ::sticks out her hand:: I think your hair is beautiful.
SO_LtJG_York says:
$::brings up the data on the Betreka nebula and tries to tweak the sensors to operate better inside the harmful environment::
XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
$SO: I think the phrrase.. "something's rrotten in Denmarrk" fits, though.
Host Tailjn says:
@::her eyes widen, as she leans back against her chair slightly, then smiles and tugs at her hair:: CNS: Really? Thanks! ... 
SO_LtJG_York says:
$XO: Actually sir...believing a word she says is a big mistake, things are way beyond rotten.
CIV_LtJG_Davis says:
@::crosses arms::
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
@COM:OPS:As we enter the sector..come out of warp and engage countermeasures. I want this to go smooth and by the numbers...
CIV_LtJG_Davis says:
@CNS: A pleasure, isn't she?
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
@::looks to the Captain:: CO: I think your hair is quite becoming on you as well, sir. ::grins::
OPS_Lt_Ryushi says:
$COM: CO: Aye, sir. Which holofilter should we use?
CSO_LtCmdr_Robertson says:
@::checks sensors for contact::
Host Tailjn says:
@CNS: Rather than focus on hair, we should review our procedures for once we enter the nebula.
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
@::looks at the CSO and realizes something about him... and smiles::
CIV_LtJG_Davis says:
@::clears his throat, then folds hands again::
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
@::does a double take towards the CNS and is at a loss for words momentarily:: COM:OPS:Im sorry I havent had the chance to familiarize myself with the modifications. I figured it would be better to learn on the fly. What do you suggest? 
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
@Tailjn: Alright, but we do have four hours until we get there...
Host Tailjn says:
@CNS: Do not take this mission lightly, counselor. 
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
@Tailjn: Oh, I am not in the least.
CSO_LtCmdr_Robertson says:
@::pans his passive sensors forward, looking at the space the runabout is approaching::
CIV_LtJG_Davis says:
@::has half a mind to open his mouth again, but figures that decision to be unwise given the captain's presence::
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
@All: Well... ::leans back and folds her hands across her chest::
SO_LtJG_York says:
$::takes his coffee cup and manages a smile as he thinks back to the time Tom scolded him for drinking coffee while working..::
SO_LtJG_York says:
$::sits down at the science station and checks the surrounding space again for any contacts::
SO_LtJG_York says:
$Self: I'm sure I'll find a lot of them when we spring the trap...::shakes his head::
XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
$::smells the coffee, and thinks about having a cup of tea::
CIV_LtJG_Davis says:
@::closes eyes and tries to sleep a little, not feeling in the most social mood since the good Tailjn stepped on the initial conversation::
Host Tailjn says:
ACTION: The route to Betreka is an uneventful one.... and quickly, silence descends on the runabouts...
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
@~~~CSO: You seem to be intent on your work.~~~
OPS_Lt_Ryushi says:
$COM: CO: Standby...
SO_LtJG_York says:
$::takes a sip of his coffee, while leaning back and watching the LRS::
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
@Tailjn:I dont suppose you know exactly where within the nebula Mr. Likaan would be hiding?
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
CSO:Anything on sensors Mr. Robertson?
Host Tailjn says:
@CO: Up until a few weeks ago, we didn't even know where Likaan might have been hiding at all. The answer, therefore, is no, captain. But to be fair, the Betreka nebula isn't that expansive anyways. It should not be difficult locating the base. 
CSO_LtCmdr_Robertson says:
@::glances up from his console, and smiles briefly before returning his attention to the console:: ~~~CNS: Not really. ~~~
CSO_LtCmdr_Robertson says:
CO: Just normal space traffic, Sir.
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
@~~~CSO: Coulda fooled me.~~~
CSO_LtCmdr_Robertson says:
@::looks up and winks at the CNS, then looks back down:: ~~~CNS: Was there anything better to do?~~~
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
@~~~CSO: No... nobody on this boat is very talkative.~~~
OPS_Lt_Ryushi says:
$::pulls up a diagram of the Betreka region on his console, and overlays a map of Small-scale Non-Federation shipping lanes::
SO_LtJG_York says:
$::looks up from his work and places the cup on the table top next to him::
CSO_LtCmdr_Robertson says:
@~~~CNS: I owe you thanks... haven't been able to talk this way in quite some time... it's rather.. pleasing.~~~
SO_LtJG_York says:
$::wishes his coffee had a little more....flavour to it::
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
@~~~CSO: I know. I talk different through heads than I do with my mouth.~~~
CSO_LtCmdr_Robertson says:
@::smiles::
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
@All: Sooo...
XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
$::gets up and replicates a cup of tea and sits back down::
CSO_LtCmdr_Robertson says:
@~~~CNS: You don't come off as the talkative type.~~~
SO_LtJG_York says:
$Self: Walking into this trap is going to be sooo much fun I think....I should do this more often..
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
@CNS:What is on your mind Ensign? ::chuckles:: You need someone to always be on the proverbial couch...spilling thier feelings?
SO_LtJG_York says:
$::checks the LRS again::
OPS_Lt_Ryushi says:
$COM: CO: I believe I have a holofilter setting for you, Captain.
CIV_LtJG_Davis says:
@::wakes up at the captain's voice, but realizes he is just speaking casually::
CSO_LtCmdr_Robertson says:
@::smirks:: CO/CNS: Well, if that's the case, I'll say right now that I hate runabouts.
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
@CO: I don't intend to be silent for three hours. Nebulas are well... boring.
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
@COM:OPS:Send it over to Mr. Robertson so that he can make the necessary changes.
XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
$::sips her tea and sighs::
SO_LtJG_York says:
$::leans back and places his arms behind his head::
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
@CSO:Why? I think they are rather nifty.. CNS:Well I will tell you what. I am sure that you have psych evals that need to be done. Why not start there.
OPS_Lt_Ryushi says:
$COM: Neosho: The Betreka region is fairly close to the planet Bajor. Many small-scale Bajoran shipping lanes run through the area. I believe a disguise as twin small Bajoran freighters will be sufficient.
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
@CO: I'd rather not.
CSO_LtCmdr_Robertson says:
@CO: Claustrophobia.
