CSO_Lt_York says:
::sits in his chair.....worrying about being....well all killed::
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
All:Ok people. You all know what you have to do. We are only going to get one shot at this.
AFCO_Lt_M_Rochelle says:
::sitting at her helm station monitoring her helm::
CIV_Lt_Davis says:
::on the edge of his chair, unable to really relax at all::
CSO_Lt_York says:
::looks over at Bill...giving him a worried look::
XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
::takes a deep breath and looks around at the other crew::
Host Rich says:
Action: The shuttle is placed in orbit around the planet.
CSO_Lt_York says:
::nods to the XO::
CIV_Lt_Davis says:
::doesn't notice York's look as he stares at the console in front of him, expecting some sort of trouble to manifest itself very soon::
AFCO_Lt_M_Rochelle says:
::Miranda has to shake her head to get the emotions that she is sensing to the side to concentrate on what she needs to do::
Host Rich says:
Action: The shuttle is being hailed from the planet.
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
All:Even if we don't make it out. This base must be stopped. Understood?
CSO_Lt_York says:
CO: Yes Captain..
CIV_Lt_Davis says:
::nods, glad he passed up on the extra dish of 'grim' at the last meal seeing as though the captain seems to be serving it in mass quantity now::
AFCO_Lt_M_Rochelle says:
::begins to enter her escape vectors and her unusual rolling and diving antics for the ship not to ge hit::
CIV_Lt_Davis says:
::hears the console chirp and looks intently:: CO: Incoming message from the planet, sir.
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
CIV:Lets hear it.
CIV_Lt_Davis says:
::routes the message through to video and speakers::
CSO_Lt_York says:
::relaxes a bit...::
Host Deiter says:
COM: CO: Alright just who are you and why are you impersonating Bollo?
CIV_Lt_Davis says:
::tries not to pay attention to the screen with Deiter on it; he's sitting at one of the side consoles now, having relenquished his chair at the helm to the more experienced pilot in Rochelle::
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
COM:Dieter: My name is Ky. I have a business proposal for Mr. Likkan. Bollo was a fool, and didnt have the lobes to do business. I am taking his place.
Host Deiter says:
COM: CO: Ky and why should I believe you
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
COM:Dieter: Because you are holding all the cards. Since I know that my life is forfiet if you do not believe me.
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
COM:Dieter: Bollo decided not to make this meeting because he was scared. I was an associate of his.
CIV_Lt_Davis says:
::continues fiddling with his console::
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
COM:Dieter:He dropped the ball. All I want to do is complete the transaction
Host Deiter says:
COM: CO: So do you have the cargo that he was suppose to deliver?
CIV_Lt_Davis says:
::considers that a great question - what cargo do they have?::
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
COM:Dieter:No...but I believe I have something better right now. If given a couple of days. I can get what you need.
XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
::looks questioningly at the Captain::
Host Deiter says:
COM: So what do you have to offer that is better?
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
COM:Dieter:It is for Mr. Likkan's ears only.
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
COM:Dieter:I believe its more than worth the wait.
CIV_Lt_Davis says:
::attempts to lean back in chair, for fear of falling off the front of it and hitting the console since he is on the edge::
CSO_Lt_York says:
::looks down at his uniform.....probably a good idea to switch to civilian clothing before continuing::
Host Deiter says:
COM:CO: You had better hope so. Wait where you are till I contact you again.
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
::sitting quietly by the Captain's side, taking it all in:: 
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
COM:Dieter: Acknowledged.
Host Deiter says:
::closes the COMs::
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
::motions for the CIV to cut the channel::
CIV_Lt_Davis says:
::immediately cuts the channel as per the captain's request::
CIV_Lt_Davis says:
CO: Begging your pardon, sir, but what exactly do we have to offer them?
Host Rich says:
Action: The shuttle is surrounded by 5 of Likkan's ships.
CSO_Lt_York says:
CO: Captain, five ships approaching.
XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
::gulps::
CIV_Lt_Davis says:
::readies tactical controls - just in case::
CSO_Lt_York says:
CO: So far none of the ships have armed their weapons...that's a good sign.
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
CO: They're always prepared, aren't they?
CIV_Lt_Davis says:
CO/CSO: For now....we don't have much to fight them with if they decide to turn on us.
CSO_Lt_York says:
CIV: Anyone ver told you, you have a really positive attitude?
CIV_Lt_Davis says:
::shrugs, without turning around:: CSO: If you expect the worst, you're never disappointed!
CSO_Lt_York says:
CIV: Yeah....that's true.
CIV_Lt_Davis says:
::scans the ships, trying to discern what kind of armament they are equipped with::
CSO_Lt_York says:
::looks down at his console, watching the scans Bill is running::
CSO_Lt_York says:
CIV: Most likely the same weapons we encoutered last time we met them.
CIV_Lt_Davis says:
::frowns:: CSO: These ships are more heavily armed. Additional disruptor banks and torpedoes..
CSO_Lt_York says:
CIV: Just great. Anyone else want to run?
CIV_Lt_Davis says:
::turns:: CSO: The Borg. I think this is a good time for them to pop up somehow.
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
CSO/CIV: All I'm sensing from them is extreme confidence. They really want us gone and are certain they can get rid of us. 
CSO_Lt_York says:
CIV: Don't joke about that. ::grins::
CIV_Lt_Davis says:
CNS/CSO: Can we use that to our advantage? I mean, over-confidence versus extreme confidence...?
CSO_Lt_York says:
::looks over at the Counselor:: CNS: They're forgetting one thing....I'm more confident. ::grins::
CIV_Lt_Davis says:
::turns towards the counselor, hoping she can shed some light on the situation for them; as it is, they seem to know nothing::
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
CSO: That goes without a Betazoid saying... ::rolls eyes::
CSO_Lt_York says:
::laughs::
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
CIV: I just told you all I know, Mr. Davis. They're cocky.
AFCO_Lt_M_Rochelle says:
::maintains the pitch and adjusts the heading slightly::
CIV_Lt_Davis says:
::nods, noting that there is a difference between the two - petty differences in words aside, it gives him something to think about as they deal with this opposition more::
Host Rich says:
Action : A larger ship approches the shuttle.
CSO_Lt_York says:
CO: Captain, we have a sixth ship approaching, marginally larger than the others.
CIV_Lt_Davis says:
::proximity alert again flashes, and he notices the approaching ship and scans it immediately::
Host Rich says:
Action: The shuttle is being hailed by the ship.
CIV_Lt_Davis says:
CO: Incoming message, Captain.
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
CIV:Well it looks like we are getting our answer. Lets hear it Mr. Davis
CIV_Lt_Davis says:
::prepares to route message to speakers::
CIV_Lt_Davis says:
::does so::
Host Capt_Grog says:
COM:CO: Ky I am Captain Grog I will be towing your shuttle to the next meeting point where you will meet with Likkan. Do not do any thing to hinder this as we have orders to blow you out of space if you try.
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
COM:Grog:Acknowledged Captain. We are turning over helm to you.
CSO_Lt_York says:
::turns to the Captain:: CO: Captain, there is a possibility that a tractor beam might interfere with our holoimaging system..
Host Capt_Grog says:
Action: A tractor beam locks onto the shuttle.
CSO_Lt_York says:
CO: But then again.....no manual, never done this before.
CIV_Lt_Davis says:
::adjusts power output to the holoimaging system and attempts to filter out any electromagnetic interference from the tractor beam::
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
CSO:We will find out. Boost power to the emitters. Hopefully it will compensate.
CIV_Lt_Davis says:
CO, CSO: Already on it..
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
CIV:Good
CSO_Lt_York says:
::nods to Bill::
CSO_Lt_York says:
Self: This is going to be fun....as in the bad meaning of the word.
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
CSO: Don't think so negatively, Lieutenant. 
XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
::has her paws crosses::
Host CO_Capt_Storal says:
All:It looks like they bought it.
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
CNS: It's very loud.
CIV_Lt_Davis says:
::attempts to filter a low level beam through the ship's navigational deflectors into the tractor beam to quietly disperse its energy away from the imaging system; he's not trying to interfere with the beam, but instead how the beam pulls the runabout:: 
CSO_Lt_York says:
CNS: You haven't known me long enough Counselor....fun in my dictionary is the predule to ...good fun. ::grins at her::
CNS_Ens_Niventra says:
::rolls eyes::
CSO_Lt_York says:
CIV: Nice job Bill. ::studies the scans::
CIV_Lt_Davis says:
::nods discreetly - as long as it works, they should be fine for now::
