::on Deck 8, scanning the corridor with a tricorder::
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
<Chief Matthews> ::is with Davis, scanning at the other end of the corridor::
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
::sitting on the Bridge::
Host XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
::sitting in her chair on the bridge, sipping a cup of hot tea::
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
XO: I believe our assassin cannot be read by a Betazoid.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
<Chief Matthews> ::looks up:: OPS: I think it's here, sir...there are very slight traces of blood here.
Host XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
CNS: Then that only leaves a few species.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::wanders over and scans himself, picking up the same thing:: Matthews: This is awfully close to the transporter room. Perhaps they distracted the Transporter Chief or officer on duty and then used the transporter to beam the body to the Jefferies Tube. 
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
<Chief Matthews> ::nods:: OPS: The pool and gym are both here - it might be an area where a lot of people were going through, including the ambassadors and delegates…good place to 'run into them'
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
<Chief Matthews> ::scratches head:: OPS: Were you able to figure out where the Transport originated from?
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
::hears a beep on her console::
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
::reads the message:: XO: The DNA results are in, sir. They seem to be Cardassian genes.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::snaps tricorder shut:: Matthews: For whatever reason, there was a lot of activity from the console in the Conference Lounge on Deck 2 - several computer cycles cannot be explained. If I had to guess, that's where it was used. 
Host XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
CNS: Carrdassian? That's interresting.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
<Chief Matthews> ::closes his tricorder as well:: OPS: We'll tear that console apart right now then.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
XO: Indeed. What should we do now? If we blatantly accuse the Cardassian delegation, it could be disastrous. Besides, the cells could have been planted.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
XO: Like I said, I'm not reading any murderous thoughts.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::nods, and watches Matthews speed off with a renewed sense of urgency::
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
*Sick Bay*: Davis to Sick Bay, please send someone up to the Conference Lounge, Deck 2.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
<MO_Chesnik> *OPS*: On our way. Sick Bay out.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::heads for Deck 2 as well::
Host XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
CNS: We need some airrtight evidence beforre we go accusing anyone.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
<MO_Chesnik> ::grabs her medical kit and departs, figuring she alone will be enough for whatever Davis needs::
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::enters the Turbolift with Matthews, who saw him approach and held the door::
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
<Chief Matthews> Turbolift: Deck 2!
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::walks somewhat methodically out of the turbolift, a great deal on his mind; Matthews follows him::
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::arrives in the Conference Lounge and immediately finds the wall console and begins scanning::
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
<Chief Matthews> ::scans the entire room quickly::
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
<MO_Chesnik> ::walks into the Conference Lounge as well, seeing an officer and an enlisted man::
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
XO: At any rate, I'll be glad to get to Carryoon, that's for sure.
Host XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
CNS: Oh yes...but then therre is the rride back as well.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
XO: We have to ferry them back?
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::his tricorder begins to beep at him, and it takes only a second to release why - the trace amount of blood on the console's keypad is of identical origin to the sample on Deck 8::
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::turns and sees Chesnik:: MO: Take a sample of this and see if Starfleet Medical has anyone who matches; in fact, let's go up to the Bridge and do this.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
<Chief Matthews> ::turns around, his look alone asking what the discovery was::
Host XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
CNS: It was in the Brriefing.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::sees Matthews and looks at the console:: Matthews: Tear that thing to pieces and find out how it was used to access the Transporter systems.
Host XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
CNS: Interrgalactic taxi serrvice.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
<Chief Matthews> OPS: Aye sir... ::wastes no time, ripping the access panel to the console right off::
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::departs the Conference Lounge with Chesnik and heads for the turbolift::
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
<MO_Chesnik> ::runs her hand through her hair; she's been on duty for 12 hours now and is beginning to feel it::
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
::sighs:: XO: Diplomatic missions never go as planned...
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::enters the lift and waits for Chesnik:: Turbolift: ::as Chesnik enters:: Bridge.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::the lift stops at the Bridge, and he waits for Chesnik to exit; she does so, heading for one of the aft consoles and immediately accessing the Starfleet Medical Library::
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::he walks up behind her and waits, wanting to know the answer immediately::
Host XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
CNS: Of courrse. ::sips her tea:: OPS: What's the good worrd, Mrr. Davis? 
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::folds his hands behind his back:: XO: When I have one for you I'll be sure to let you know, ma'am... ::his eyes are tracing everything Chesnik is doing at the console::
Host Rich says:
<Amb_Solet. *XO*: Cmdr I hate to be a pest but I would like to know if you have found anything out about the murders yet and if it would be possible for us to move about the ship.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
<MO_Chesnik> OPS: Here.. ::the console chirps and she points at the file currently on the screen:: Both samples positively match with an Orion named Jek'Mal.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::reads the brief bio Starfleet has on him; there is no picture::
Host XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
::nods:: *Amb Solet*: At the moment I cannot disclose any inforrmation, Ambassadorr. Howeverr you still need to rremain safely in yourr quarrters forr now.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
MO, Self: "the noted Orion assassin..." Didn't see that one coming.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
<MO_Chesnik> ::frowns, not sure if Davis is being sarcastic or not::
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
MO: See what your department can find in the Conference Lounge and on Deck 8, alpha section.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
<MO_Chesnik> ::gets up from the chair:: OPS: Aye, sir. ::departs with medical kit in the Turbolift:: 
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::sits down in the seat and finishes reading the bio::
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
XO: Security still has a tight lock on the delegations, right?
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
XO: Commander, I think we've got something. ::doesn't mean to interrupt Niventra::
Host Rich says:
<Amb_Solet> *XO*: Well I hope that you can do something soon as the others seem to be getting irritated around here.
Host XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
CNS: They'rre all confined to quarrterrs with guarrds on the doorrs.
Host XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
*Amb Solet*: I assurre you Ambassadorr, we'rre worrking to solve this as quickly as we can.
Host XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
OPS: Yes Mrr. Davis?
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::waits for the comm link to Solet to be broken, as he doesn't want to involve the pain in the rear ambassadors any more than he has to::
Host Rich says:
<Amb_Solet> *XO*: Then let’s hope that it is soon Solet out.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
XO: Apparently, one of the murders was on Deck 8. There were very minute traces of blood there, with matching traces on the wall console in the Conference Lounge on Deck 2.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
XO: Starfleet Medical has a matching record to the blood - an Orion assassin named Jek'Mal.
Host XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
OPS: Good job. Can we locate him on boarrd?
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::turns:: XO: Not just by recognizing him. Starfleet has little on him - and no pictures. He's noted for using a personal holo emitter to disguise himself, though.
Host XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
OPS: But we have a blood sample...can we scan forr his DNA on boarrd?
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::shrugs:: XO: In theory, yes.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
XO: I have no idea what this holo device is capable of, though.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::turns back to the console and accesses LCARS::
Host XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
OPS: But if we locate him by DNA we should be able to beam him to the Brrig.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
XO: Yes ma'am.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
XO: If we were to send a low level EM pulse across the ship, it might be enough to disable or disrupt his holo emitter long enough for the internal sensors to scan the DNA of the ambassadors and their delegates. 
Host XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
::ponders and takes another sip of her tea:: OPS: I don't mean to be shorrt, Mrr. Davis, I just don't like having a murrderrerr loose on boarrd.
Host XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
::points:: OPS: Yes....that would do nicely.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
::is thinking about all that has been said::
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
*Brig*: Davis to Brig, prepare to receive a transport.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
<Crewman_Tevez> *OPS*: Standing by.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::adjusts the environmental controls to emit a low level electromagnetic pulse throughout the entire ship, which he initiates; immediately after, he begins a concentrated scan for Jek'Mal's DNA and has the scan repeat until it is found:: 
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::prepares transporters to transport the assassin straight to the Brig::
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
<Crewman_Tevez> ::prepares forcefields on all holding cells::
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::hears the console immediately begin beeping a blue alert, as it has found the matching DNA; immediately, he locks on to the individual and initiates the transport to the Brig::
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
XO: Got him.
OPS_Lt_Davis says: 
XO: Transporting now..
Host XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
OPS: Good job Mrr. Davis.
Host Rich says:
Action: A young Ferengi is transported to the Brig.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
<Crewman_Tevez> *OPS*: Tevez to Bridge, we've got one person who just materialized in - looks Ferengi to me.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
*Tevez*: Acknowledged. Keep an eye on him.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
::looks at the XO:: XO: I knew it was a Ferengi.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
::taps her head and smiles::
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::stands and approaches the center of the Bridge a little::
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
XO, CNS: I'm going to head down and see what we've got.
Host XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
CNS: Yourr drrink's on me then, Miss Niventrra.
Host XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
OPS: Carry on Mrr. Davis. Good job.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::nods and heads for the Turbolift:: Turbolift: Deck 17.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::turns and faces the doors, waiting for the lift to arrive; he's hoping they are close to the end here:: 
Host Rich says:
<Amb_Broil> *XO* : Cmdr I want to know why one of my people was just transported out of the room?
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::arrives on Deck 17 and walks out of the turbolift, nodding to a few passing crewmen::
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
XO: I'd tell them the truth. ::smirks::
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::see's the Brig, and walks in; Tevez and three other security personnel are watching the Ferengi quite carefully::
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
<Crewman_Tevez> OPS: Is this the little scum right here, sir? He doesn't look so tough..
Host XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
*Amb Broil*: Oh, we werre rrunning a test on ourr trransporrterr systems...it appearrs they arre malfunctioning.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::shakes head:: Tevez: Don't underestimate your adversaries, crewman.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::recognizes the Ferengi; he almost powerbombed him several days ago on the Bridge::
Host Rich says:
<Amb_Broil> * XO* : Then I want him returned immediately!
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::gestures for Tevez to move out from behind the console, where he goes himself; he adjusts the computer to flood the holding cell with alternating wavelengths from the EM spectrum, hoping to overload the holoemitter since it is only meant to adjust his appearance in a very limited type of environmental condition:: 
Host XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
*Amb Broil*: He will be rreturrned as soon as possible, Ambassadorr.
Host Rich says:
Action: The Ferengi in the brig suddenly appears as a large mean looking Orion.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::feels surprised that the EM burst actually worked::
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
<Crewman_Tevez> ::looks a little worried now looking at Jek'Mal::
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
*XO*: Davis to Rr`Vellan, we've got him - I've disabled the holoemitter.
Host Rich says:
<Amb_Broil> *XO*; If he isn't returned with in 5 minutes I will file a protest with Starfleet in 6 minutes.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
*XO*: I suggest we grab up the rest of the Ferengi delegation as well for questioning.
Host XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
*OPS*: Go ahead Mrr. Davis....
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::accesses the Transporter systems and transports all of the Ferengi delegates into the remaining holding cells, breaking them up as best as possible so they all have an individual cell::
Host XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
*Amb Broil*: All we be explained, Ambassadorr.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
::decides to take over the comm:: *Amb_Broil*: Ambassador, this is Counselor Niventra. You and your delegation will be questioned shortly. Please stand by. 
Host XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
::looks over at the Counselor::
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
*Amb_Broil*: A member of your delegation has been found to be the assassin. Niventra, out.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
::stands up:: XO: I'm going down to start questioning them, sir. ::sighs::
Host Rich says:
<Amb_Broil> ::looks around at the surrounding:: *XO*: Cmdr. Why have I and my staff been placed in the Brig?
Host XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
CNS: Carry on.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
Tevez: Read these men whatever their rights are and stand by. If any of them so much as twitch, shoot them on maximum stun and disable them.
Host XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
*Amb Broil*: We'd like to question you rregarrding the rrecent murrderrs on boarrd.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
<Crewman_Tevez> OPS: You needn't ask twice, sir! ::readjusts phaser, and his colleagues do the same::
Host Rich says:
<Amb_Broil> *XO*; I would more than glad to talk to you about those murders however you don't have to put us in the brig to do it.
Host XO_Cmdr_Rr`Vellan says:
*Amb Broil*: It's just a prrecaution sirr....forr yourr safety.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says: 
::leaves the Bridge and heads down to the VIP quarters to pick up the delegations::
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
Broil: We don't care too much for murderers, Ambassador. I'm sure you understand. ::smirks a little::
Host Rich says:
<Amb_Broil> *XO*; I can assure you Cmdr that Starfleet will hear about the way you have treated us.
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
::disables the comm from the Ambassador's holding cell::
OPS_Lt_Davis says:
All: Enough already, I'm sick of hearing this gasbag.
