Host Rich says:
Prologue: The Apache has found what seems to be a planet where you every thought can come true. Will they enjoy themselves here or will they find horrors that only they can imagine?
Host Rich says:

XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
::on the bridge analyzing the sensors data with the readings from the planet::
FCO_Ens_Odain says:
@::Continues to scan the planet using the tricorder::
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
@::on the planet staring down the XO's copy:: 
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
::exits the Ready Room and sips her tea::
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
@::imagines the XO disappearing into a puff of smoke::
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
XO: All stations report they are secure and maintaining Condition Yellow, still have a lock on the Away Team, no contacts on LRS, and SRS are showing small energy spikes Sir.
Host Rich says:
Action: There is a puff of smoke and the XO disappears from the planet
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CO: The bridge is yours captain. Now that you are here would you like me to join the Away Team on the surface? ::nods to the CTO::
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
All: Captain on the Bridge!
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
XO: No, I believe I'll be heading down myself.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
@<MCPO_Echo> Self: I wish it was that easy to make real officers disappear... ::chuckles and resumes sentry duty::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
::looks surprised:: CO: I guess that is your prerogative, but I will not protest if you bring the CTO with you. ::smiles::
FCO_Ens_Odain says:
@CNS: Are you sensing anything counselor? I'm still not picking up anything on this tricorder. Its as if there is nothing here, but we are obviously seeing something.
Host Rich says:
Action: some of the other Officers on the AT disappear.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
@<MCPO_Echo> Out loud: All right... I take it back... bring them back... NOW!
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
XO: I need the CTO on the bridge
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
@::turns around and glares at the MCPO:: 
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CO: Then ma'am have Mr. Sekhmanek coming down with you.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
@::feels the confusion of the missing crewmembers::
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
XO: I planned on it, Mr. Polo.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
@*XO*: This planet is dangerous.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
@::works hard and concentrates on the people coming back::
Host Rich says:
@<Old Man> CNS: just one thing dear lady everyone needs to be careful what they think because bad thought can just as easily become real.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
@Old Man: I have control of my thoughts, thanks.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CO: You heard the Counselor Ma'am, there is a lot of danger. Take care of yourself. I just began to know you. Good luck Captain.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
*CNS*: Report Lieutenant.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
@*XO*: Don't beam anyone else down here!
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
@<MCPO_Echo> ::concentrates on bringing the other AT member’s back::
Host Rich says:
Action: The missing people suddenly return.
FCO_Ens_Odain says:
@Old Man: Is death possible on this planet? I mean, if we are killed by what we think of will we die?
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
*CNS*: Please explain, what is happening? Do you want to be beamed back on the ship?
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
@*XO*: ANYTHING you think comes true! We need beam back aboard now, sir.
Host Rich says:
@<Old Man> CNS: Not just you your whole crew here on the planet.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
*CNS*: Understood. ::makes a sign to the CTO to start the beam up operations::
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
@Old Man: I'm not willing to find out...
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
::Activates the transporter and attempts to beam the AT back::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CO: I guess we will have to wait. If it is really so dangerous you shouldn't risk your life ma'am.
Host Rich says:
@<Old Man> FCO:  Death as you know it does not happen. While you may be killed in a battle that you think of you will not actually be dead .
FCO_Ens_Odain says:
@Self: Interesting.
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
XO: I'm there  will be plenty of risky away missions.
Host Rich says:
Action: The AT transports back to the ship.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CO: I would feel better if you could wait for a more complete report, but ultimately is your decision ma'am.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
::materializes on the Bridge::
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
XO: Away Team retrieved Sir.
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
::blinks and looks at the CNS:: CNS: Report.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
CO/XO: No one should beam down to that planet without complete and total control of their thoughts. 
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
CO/XO: One our men thought of someone from the group disappearing and they did. The Old Man said something about "do we really die on this planet" but I didn't want to test his theory. 
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
::Calls the MCPO over and debriefs her quietly as the others talk::
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
::considers an all-Vulcan away team::
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
CO: Exactly, sir.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CNS: Does the program read also unconscious thoughts or just what you are actively wishing?
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
::blinks, then remembers that the CNS is a telepath::
FCO_Ens_Odain says:
CNS: But the old man said that deaths  on the planet is not how we know it. We could die in our thought up reality but not actually die.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
XO: Actively wishing... for now... I wasn't sure we needed to stick around for our subconscious thoughts to come through.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
CO/XO: If you want us to return we really would need a team with a VERY good grasp on their thoughts...
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
CNS/XO: What I still don't understand is how they are able to scan your mind and then create it
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
::whispers to the Captain:: CO: I think we need to make another attempt down there, we need to discover how this planet really works.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
CO/XO: I would be willing to beam back down, but again I would want a trained team... possibly of Vulcans and higher-level telepaths. Not to discriminate, but its dangerous to let a thought fly down there...
FCO_Ens_Odain says:
CO/XO: I am willing to go back down with the counselor.
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
XO: I wonder if this is the planet that the Borg and Cardassians were so interested in.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CO: I think this is it. To have a whole planet transformed in a telepathic holodeck requires huge amounts of energy. Darn I would like to dissect the planet if I could.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
CO/XO: Why would the Borg be interested? They don't have wishes... they are in a collective consciousness...
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
::looks at the FCO and smiles:: FCO: Odain... I appreciate your enthusiasm but... your race has been known to be... what was the phrase? "Passionate and violent." 
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
FCO: Otherwise I would take you again.

XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CTO: Technology to assimilate I think. They crave new technology.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
XO: Well, maybe the power source and computer stuff would tempt them.
FCO_Ens_Odain says:
CNS: With all due respect, that was a long time ago back in another time. I like to think that my race as advanced a bit since then. But I see your point.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CO: Would you like to lead another away team down there ma'am?
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
XO: I would really like to get to the bottom of this.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
::nods to the CO:: CNS: You know the minds of this crew better than anyone else, can you select a few people with a very stable control over their minds?
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
::looks around::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CO: Well at least we know we can beam you up very fast should Murphy decide to pay a visit.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
XO: I would be willing to go alone if there isn't anyone else... It's only dangerous when there are unchecked thoughts.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
XO: The Captain and I will be fine. I can counterbalance her thoughts with mine if need be.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CNS: I think the TO would make a nice addition.
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
::raises an eyebrow:: CNS: I studied under a kung-fu master for years.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
XO: I don't like it, Sir. There should be some Security along.
TO_Sekhmanek says:
::Looks at the XO.::
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
::looks at the TO and then the XO:: XO: Two people will suffice. I'm sorry but I need strong minds... not that the TO does not have one...
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CTO: I agree.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
XO: Just let the Captain and I go. You don't have a problem locking on to us.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
CNS: Yet.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CNS: I am afraid I disagree. TO: Prepare to beam down on the planet with AT, and make sure you all come back alive ensign.
TO_Sekhmanek says:
::Nods to the XO.:: XO: Aye, sir.
TO_Sekhmanek says:
::Looks to the CNS for her response.::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CO: Well good luck Captain. We will cover you from space.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
::Gets a field pack of survival gear and a phaser rifle from one of the Tactical team that came back and hands them to the TO:: TO: Be prepared.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
XO: Fine. The three of us will go.
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
::nods:: XO: You have the Bridge.

FCO_Ens_Odain says:
::Takes his station at the conn::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CO: Aye ma'am. ::moves to the CONN:: FCO: did you take any readings with your tricorder?
TO_Sekhmanek says:
::Nods to the CTO.:: CTO: Thank you. ::Puts on the gear and prepares the rifle.::
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
::Dismisses the Tactical team back to the Security office::
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
TO: Stay frosty, bring them back alive.
TO_Sekhmanek says:
CTO: That's always been my intention, ma'am.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
::nods::
FCO_Ens_Odain says:
XO: I scanned from the time we beamed down to the time we beamed up, sir. Just a few small energy Spikes. Nothing dis-similar from what we picked up here.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
::Resumes her post at Tactical::
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
TO: Now, you must do exactly as we tell you. You will concentrate on keeping your mind clear and passive. Envision something immobile and non-threatening when we get to the planet. Understood? 
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
FCO: Could you discover the nature of the energy, and its strength?
TO_Sekhmanek says:
CNS: I'd like to think I've learned enough mental control over my lifetime.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
TO: Alright, good.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
CO/XO: You might want to look at this before you go Sirs.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CTO: Can you put it on the screen Lieutenant?
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
::perks ears::
TO_Sekhmanek says:
::Stands on the side of the bridge, closes his eyes and begins to sort out his mind.::
FCO_Ens_Odain says:
XO: No Sir, the spikes seem to have been localized to where the objects materialized.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
CO/XO: Got a fix on some things with the probe array, cleaned up the sensors... that planet is getting it's power from the sun... see? A beam... right along this path here ::points::
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
::puts the diagram on the viewer::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
::looks at the main viewer::
TO_Sekhmanek says:
::Concentrates his mind on suppressing his thoughts of the only thing he knows for sure he would wish for.::
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
FCO: I'd avoid flying through that course... might get a bit... intense.
FCO_Ens_Odain says:
::Looks at the main viewer:: Self: Maybe that’s why the Cardassians wanted to destroy the sun, to cut off energy to the planet. But why.
Host Rich says:
Action: The viewer comes alive with a picture of a beam of light coming from the sun to a spot on the planet
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CTO: Can you zoom on the spot of the planet where the energy touch the surface?
FCO_Ens_Odain says:
CTO: Agreed.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
::zooms in::
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
CTO: Is there some sort of collection system there.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
CO: Checking now Sir. ::scans the surface there::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
FCO: You got a point there Ensign.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
FCO: You know how fun the Spoon heads are, Ensign... must gnaw on their guts to have a party planet like this around. ::winks::
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
CO: Nothing on sensors Sir, it just reaches the planet there in the clearing and touches the ground.
FCO_Ens_Odain says:
::Turns around and looks at the CTO and smirks a bit.::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
ALL: I guess it becomes even more essential that we discover who built this place, and if they had some second goals.
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
CTO/CNS: Well I think we should beam down nearby.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
CO: Whatever you say, sir.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
CO: I have the coordinates to a safe spot nearby Sir. Small clearing about 50 meters away from the main one.
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
CNS: If we want to figure this planet out.
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
::nods to the CTO:: TO: Are you ready Ensign?
TO_Sekhmanek says:
::Opens his eyes slowly and lets them focus on the CO.:: CO: Yes, ma'am.
TO_Sekhmanek says:
::Takes a deep breath and concentrates on what's going on around him.::
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
CO: Might want to look up when you get there, Captain... that clearing is surrounded by huge trees, like Earth Redwood size.
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
::nods::
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
::resets the transporter controls:: CO: Ready when you are, Sir.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
::looks at a message on his console:: CO: Transporter room 1 is ready ma'am.
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
CNS/TO: Shall we?
TO_Sekhmanek says:
CO: I'm ready whenever you are, ma'am.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
::nods to the CO::
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
CTO: Energize.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
::activates the transporter controls, sending the AT to the smaller clearing::
Host Rich says:
Action: The CO, CNS, and TO  are transported down to the planet.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
@::has no problem keeping her mind shielded::
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
@::takes the CTO's advice and looks up at the beautiful trees::
TO_Sekhmanek says:
@::Watches his surroundings fade into the clearing, then looks around for a moment and checks out the area for hostiles.::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
FCO: While we are in orbit, I would like you to keep an eye on the planet, see if something happens somewhere else.
FCO_Ens_Odain says:
XO: Aye Sir
Host Rich says:
@Action: The AT find a 50-foot high smooth wall just before they reach  the trees surrounding the clearing.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
@CO: I'm sure we could "think" our way out of this wall...
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
@::envisions a door opening in the wall::
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
@CNS/TO: They must want to protect this.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CTO: Would there be a way to interrupt the flow of energy without destroying the sun?
Host Rich says:
@Action: Nothing happen to the wall
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
::Keeps a sensor lock on the AT, watches LRS and SRS for anything unusual, and gets a situation and security report from all stations as the ship maintains Condition Yellow::
TO_Sekhmanek says:
@::Makes a point to keep his thoughts fantasy and wish free until ordered otherwise.::
FCO_Ens_Odain says:
CTO: What would happen if we were to park the ship in front of that beam for a few moments, would that disrupt power as well as not fry our tails?
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
XO: Other than blocking the beam with a giant cloud Sir? ::grins:: You might be able to redirect or block the beam somehow.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
FCO/CTO: Good idea, and maybe we can use out metaphysic shields for that. FCO: Can you run some simulations?
FCO_Ens_Odain says:
XO: Doing so now  Sir
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
FCO: I don't think it would be much of an inconvenience to the planet, but we'd probably get fried unless we used some serious shields.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
@CO/TO: It figured...
Host Rich says:
@<Old Man> CNS: I see you have returned with some new friends
TO_Sekhmanek says:
@CO/CNS: Is there anything protecting the wall that would prevent us from beaming to the other side?
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
XO: We could put up a cloud of obscurant chemicals in the beam path Sir.
TO_Sekhmanek says:
@::Looks at the old man and raises an eyebrow.::
FCO_Ens_Odain says:
::Starts running various simulations in his console::
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
@::thinks::
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
@Old Man: Yes, we've come to explore your planet better.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CTO/FCO: Let's run simulations and let's see what is the best alternative.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
XO: The chemicals wouldn't pose any risk to the ship Sir, we'd just need to replicate alot of them.
Host Rich says:
@<Old Man> CNS: The planet is hear for your amusement and if exploring is your amusement then explore away.
TO_Sekhmanek says:
@::Wonders to himself who this old man is.::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CTO: Send your idea to Ensign Odain. He is already running simulations. Anything that works is fine for me.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
@Old Man: What is behind this wall?
Host Rich says:
@<Old Man> TO; Why good sir I am the entertainment director
TO_Sekhmanek says:
@::Looks to the old man more seriously.::
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
::Sends a data packet on torpedoes filled with hexachlorine smoke compound set to detonate in a pattern in the beam path::
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
@::glances over at the TO, then shrugs::
FCO_Ens_Odain says:
::Receives a data packet from the CTO and runs separate simulations::
Host Rich says:
@<Old Man> CNS: My dear lady behind that wall is where we get our energy from and the only place on this planet where no one is allowed.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
@Old Man: Why? What prevents us from accessing it?
Host Rich says:
@<Old Man> CNS; Because any one on the other side of that wall would be killed instantly. That is why no one is allowed there
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
@CO: Now, that's interesting.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
@Old Man: What causes death?
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
@::hears the word 'killed' and her ears perk::
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
XO: All stations report secure Sir. No contacts on LRS, SRS unchanged. AT lock still in place.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CTO: Good, hopefully they will be able to discover what created this strange place.
Host Rich says:
@<Old Man> CNS: While I am not sure exactly what it is. I do know that we draw our energy from the sun nearby and it has something to do with that.
FCO_Ens_Odain says:
XO: Simulations still running sir, I should have an out come soon.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
XO: Let's hope so, Sir. I'd hate for this to be a wild goose chase.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
@Old Man: I am interesting in knowing more about this... can I speak to someone about it?
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
@ Old Man: We would just like to see how you convert the sun's energy into all this.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
::nods to the FCO:: Go ahead Ensign. CTO: Yes, and a dangerous one as well.
Host Rich says:
@<Old Man> CNS: I wish there was some one here to tell you about it but the ones that built this planet have long since gone.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
@Old Man: Where did they go?
Host Rich says:
@<Old Man> CO: I am afraid that that is not in my programming.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
@Old Man: But you must have learned something.
Host Rich says:
@<Old Man> CNS: I am afraid that I do not have the answer to that. The just left one day.
TO_Sekhmanek says:
@Self: Why would someone leave a place where they could have anything they wanted?
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
::Does some number-crunching on the beam to get a figure on how much power it is transferring, then scans for a possible source at the sun to see what is making it into a condensed beam like it is::
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
@*XO*: Can you do some research into the history of this system?
