CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::assumes his position on the pad::

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::enters the transporter room dressed in her tight fitting coal black jumper, carrying her satchel::

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: walks towards the transporter room with her pack including the emergency transmitter pack ::

CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
CIV: I think I liked your other outfit better Mrlr

CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
CTO: Ready in case we have to do crowd control?
 
CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CO: Yes, have my old trusty shotgun and a few surprises

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: enters the transporter room last and walks to the pad :: All: Sorry I'm late, but I had to get the transmitter from stores.

CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
FCO: Hope you will work with Wolf, should we need to call down support or support fire from the Apache

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::steps up on the pad as she mock growls at the CO:: CO: That one was a little chilly...despite my fur.
 
CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
CTO: Just make sure that your ammo is not as old at the weapons lieutenant

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
CO: Understood Captain. :: steps onto the pad and smiles over at Wolf ::

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::winks at Lane::

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::stands ready::

CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
:: steps onto the padd and smiles at Mrlr :: ALL: Alright folks lets see if we just unmade history :: grins at the other ::

CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
TR_Chief : Energize
 
Action:  As the Away Team materializes in the room on the planet they are met by a rather upset looking Goman.
 
CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
Lane: Looks like a sour puss doesn’t he

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
:: materializes and looks at Goman:: CO: He looks like someone just stole his mouse

CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
:: whispers to Mrlr :: CIV: I don’t think I am going to make his Christmas list this year

Goman says:
:: marches over to the group as they materializes:: CO: I thought for an advanced race you were smart.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::steps forward::

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: whispers :: CTO: You would too if your whole world just blinked into non existence.

CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
Gorman : Well smart enough not to lead ourselves on a road to oblivion or base our society on fictional books.  Now that the pleasantries are over, what seems to be the problem

Goman says:
CO: So which one of you advanced idiots came up with this last plan?

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: listens to Goman not daring to comment on that last statement ::

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::moves forward towards Goman:: Goman: Be careful of your tone human, I don’t like it and I may feed your heart to my targ

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::steps forward:: Goman: That would be me. ::flicks a claw out and examines it:: Why?  Did you have a better idea?

Goman says:
CIV: Well I would have at least considered the what might happen when you decided to bring your ship into the planet's atmosphere and took out all of our electricity?

CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
Goman: When you call for someone to clean up your mess, don’t bet that they will do it your way.  If you could have done it, you would not have called us

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
Goman: We did...or have you noticed that there is now no threat of nuclear war?  ::flicks her tail:: You can thank me later.

Goman says:
CO: Well you little stunt has all the governments now planning on building nuclear weapons in the 100 megaton range to fight you.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
Goman: Would you like some sling-shots too? I know a Ferengi that can do you a deal

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: glances at Wolf ::

Goman says:
CIV: There was never a threat of nuclear war before you decided to pull your little stunt.

CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
Goman: Well at least they are united on something.  Now you have a planet afraid of mythical aliens, united to fight for itself.  Seem better than 5 or 10 little countries looking to fight each other

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
Goman: That's what you thought.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::whispers to Lane:: Lane: think anyone would notice if i killed this annoying little insect?

Goman says:
CO: True but what happens in 6 month after you have left and no one shows up for them to fight?

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: whispers back :: CTO: Maybe not, but I don't think Starfleet would care for that kind of diplomacy. :: grins ::

CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
Goman: You had at least two factions testing and on the verge of nuclear ability when we arrived.  Ever heard of nuclear deterrence?

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::smiles::

Goman says:
CIV: That is what I know. There were no plans to build nuclear weapons till your little stunt.

Goman says:
CO: The test that you speak of were done 20 years ago and every government on this planet has the capabilities to build the weapons. That is why no one ever built them because they knew that if they did the other guy would also.

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: takes a quick look around the room ::

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::looks at Goman::

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
Goman: How about we just beam all nuclear material into space for you?

Goman says:
CTO: Are you going to be here in 3 months when they have them finished?

CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
Goman: You cant have it both ways Goman. They would never build weapons against each other but you needed our help to prevent destruction.  Cant eat your cake and have it too

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
Goman: Actually i was hoping to be on Risa sunbathing

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
CO: I say we leave and let them annihilate themselves.  This whining little weasel is beginning to bore me.

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
Goman: Excuse me Goman, but now might be the right time to get all the leaders together and stop this buildup.

Goman says:
CO: What we needed was a way to unite the planet so that we could move forward and not keep running around not trusting each other.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CIV: Like me to gut him for you?

Goman says:
FCO: I agree however I suggest you leave me do the talking.

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
Goman: Starfleet would be willing to send a delegation here to assist you.

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::holds up a razor sharp claw:: CTO: Thanks Wolf...but I have my own equipment. :;grins::

CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
Goman : Think...you have it man.  Fire a few rockets at our ship and we go.  Then you sit down together and tell each other how wonderful you are and that you really should get rid of the weapons because they are so powerful

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::sighs:: Goman: You need to frame a Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CIV: As you wish oh glorious furry one, but i got dibs on his liver

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::does a fancy bow to the CIV::

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: sighs and lets the Captain continue the discussion ::

Goman says:
FCO: I believe we can still salvage this if you are all willing to trust me.

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: nods to Goman ::

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::laughs:: Goman: I trust you as much as i do a Ferengi accountant

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::chuckles and leans over to speak quietly to the CTO:: CTO: He probably tastes like Cardassian... ::shudders::

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CIV: Definitely not a good taste then

CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
FCO: Hope are you willing to work with them on this

Goman says:
CO: And do you really think that with the threat of some alien being coming from outer space that they are going to get rid of the weapons?

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
CO: I'm no diplomat Captain, but I'll do what I can.

CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
Goman: I don’t know and neither do you.  But Commander Lane has offered to help, now if you are done flying off the handle let her.  We will do what she thinks is needed to help
 
CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CIV: Wonder if we can requisition one of those pointy eared diplomats?
 
Goman says:
CO: I believe that we should introduce you and your crew to the planet  maybe we can still do some good. Especially if we show them this ugly one. :: point to the CTO::

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::looks at Goman::

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
Goman: Watch who you are calling ugly human

CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
Goman: You are a subtle as a cockroach on a white carpet aren’t you little man

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: looks at Wolf and thinks he isn't THAT ugly ::

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CO: Are you sure that Mrlr and i cant use him for sport?

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
CTO: I told you that you should smile more...

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CIV:  I try but it hurts

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
CTO: You're a Klingon...suck it up.

CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
:: in  Klingon with a Terran accent :: CTO: pujwI' HIvlu'chugh quvbe'lu'

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CIV: I’d rather gut the cockroach

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: wonders what the heck that means in English ::

Goman says:
CO: Captain I hope that once we introduce you and your crew we can explain what just happened and convince them that you are here to help protect them from races from outer space.

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
Goman: I'm sure we can come to some agreement.

CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
Goman: Sounds reasonable, work out the details with Commander Lane.  But it would have to be a secure area, we are not going to wait for a lynch mob to hang us

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
Goman: Or tell them that if they don't play nice we'll turn them all into bubbling ooze wile they sleep.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CIV: Bubbling ooze?

Goman says:
FCO: I hope so because I am afraid that if we leave thing as they are  in a year every government may start looking at using those weapons on each other.

CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
CIV: Well not ooze, more of an ash

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
CO: Ooze sounds much more dramatic though...

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
All: I could make a throne out of there skulls

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
Goman: They would be foolish to follow that ideal and risk destroying the entire planet.

CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
CTO: Too lumpy

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::tilts her head to the side thoughtfully:: CTO: Wouldn't that chafe to sit on for any length of time?

Goman says:
CIV: Right now that is what most of the population on this planet is afraid of and that is why they are pressuring the governments to do something about it.

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
Goman: Shall we go and discuss the details?

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CIV: I’ll have it lined with fur. What can I say I’m just a bloodthirsty Klingon when you get right down to it

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
Goman: Well see ...half the battle is already won then.  That should be incentive enough to all play nice in one big sandbox.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CIV: I could always conquer this pathetic planet and make a present of it for the twins

Goman says:
FCO: It is possible we were able to convince the other governments that it would happen if they built them and that was enough to keep them from building them to start with.

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
Goman: How long would it take to get in touch with all the government leaders?

Goman says:
CIV; Fear is one thing convincing them not to kill you might be another.

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::looks at Wolf:; CTO: I can barely get them to keep their rooms clean...you expect them to keep an entire planet tidy?

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::grunts:: Goman:  Kill us? That I’d like to see

Goman says:
FCO: About an hour and if we are lucky  we should be able to get them together in about a day.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CIV: Well it’ll keep them occupied for what? Two weeks maybe?

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
CO: I believe the Apache would be willing to transport the other leaders to a safe place, if you follow me? :: half smiles ::

Goman says:
:: Looks at the CTO: CTO: You really think you could stand up to 1,000,000 people coming at you at once?

CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
FCO/Goman: The Apache could be used as a meeting place

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
Goman: Is that all? That’s just an afternoon’s diversion

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::chuckles::

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
Goman: Contact the leaders and see if they would be willing to meet.

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: whispers to Mrlr :: CIV: They have to use those telephone things right?

Goman says:
CO: That would work. However do you have the capabilities to tie into our television station?

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CO: Why don’t we transport them to the Apache and have the meeting there

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::nods to the FCO::

CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
CTO: I am sure you could make all the proper arrangements

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CO: By your command oh glorious captain

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
CIV: Then I'm sure we could "find" the leaders and assist them to the meeting?

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::chuckles:: FCO: Oh I think that can be arranged.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
Goman: And you cockroach will you be at this meeting?

CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
Goman: You would be amazed what we can do

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::leans over:: CTO: He's more like a weasel than a cockroach...

Goman says:
CO: Then in about an hour I would suggest that you transport me up to your ship and we will put you all on the network news so as to help convince the other governments.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::looks over Goman:: CIV: hmm you may be right, but weasels have redeeming qualities roaches do not

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::grins:: CO: If worse comes to worse....we can always stick them in a room with the twins for an hour.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CIV: I like those odds

CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
CIV: Nobody deserves that :: smiles at her ::
 
CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
Goman: How many guests will you be bringing

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CO: Hey the twins aren’t that bad, they are just misunderstood like there Klingon uncle

Goman says:
CO: That will be seen after the broad cast. Till then it will be just me.

CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
CTO: Misunderstood is not the word I was thinking of when you come to mind Wolf :: smirks ::

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
CO: ::shakes her head:: Something just doesn't feel right about this setup.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CO: Us Klingons just have bad PR
  
Action: The CIV transports back to the Apache to start setting things up.

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: watches as Mrlr transports back to the ship ::

CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
CTO: Worry about your PR later, I want security so tight it squeaks on this one

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::looks at Goman wondering what the little man is up to::

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CO: It will be. Might i suggest we check them during transport for any unwanted items

Goman says:
CO: Captain I will start contacting the other governments  and will be ready to transport aboard in about an hour.

CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
CTO: Hold them in the pattern buffers full scans

CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
Goman : We will transport you in one hour

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
Goman: Be careful little man, when you shake hands with the devil you end up getting burned

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::nods to the CO::

Goman says:
CO: I will be waiting Captain.

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
CO: Captain, and what do you want me to do?

Goman says:
CTO: I am afraid I already have.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::grunts::

CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
FCO: Research what we know about the factions, be ready to play to their individual idiosyncrasies.  They wont be quick to change their way

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
Goman: I don’t trust you little man. I will be watching you and at the first sign of treachery i will kill you

Goman says:
FCO: I can help you with that we have a lot of information on every government official on the planet.

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
CO: Understood sir.

Goman says:
CTO: You talk about treachery to me.

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
Goman: I would appreciate the assistance sir. :: nods politely ::

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
Goman: I do little man

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: gives Wolf the look to shush ::

CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
Goman: I expect you to treat the commander well.  If any of my crew are harmed in any way... I will turn this world into a moon

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::nods at Lane and zips it::
 
Goman says:
FCO: If you will follow me I will show you where the information is.

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
Goman: Thank you.

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
CO: Captain, I'm sure I will be safe with Goman.

Goman says:
CTO: I am not here to give you any trouble just to settle this whole mess.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::nods but remains silent standing at rest::

Goman says:
:: heads off towards another part of the building with the FCO following::
 
CO_Cmdr_Grey-feather says:
FCO: I will stand by your feelings on the matter Hope, but be careful
