Prologue: The Crew of the Apache is still enjoying their shore leave or at least trying to as the CTO and CNS are having a little problem with the station security. Also it seems that the FCO and XO have worked out their little tiff from the hotel. Will the shore leave get better or will there be other problems?

CNS_Ens_Wharton says:
::Sits in her chair, waiting patiently for the Captain::

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
::sitting beside Hope, his hand upon hers looking out over the ocean::

 CO_Captain_Grey-feather says:
:: Laces up his other boot getting ready to go speak with this commander ::

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::fastens up her jumpsuit and notices that it is getting a bit snug.  Muttering out loud:: CO: I want the head and other body parts of whomever orchestrated this little situation.

 Cmdr_Grumpy says:
:: gets the information from the Apache on the CNS's papers::

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: watching the waves and feeling very relaxed ::

 CO_Captain_Grey-feather says:
CIV: I will hand them to you after I get done with them.

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
::looks over at Hope and smiles::
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: turns to Wolf :: XO: Nice here isn't it?

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
FCO: It is, I’ve never felt so relaxed

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::stalks over to the mirror and looks at herself sideways.  Sighs:: CO: I'm going to have to get another set of clothing to wear for a while.

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: giggles :: XO: I wonder if everyone else are having fun?

CNS_Ens_Wharton says:
::Looks around the blank and dull room::

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
FCO: The view is beautiful, but pales in comparison to the company

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
FCO: I have a feeling Mrlr has our good Captain busy

 CO_Captain_Grey-feather says:
:: walks up to her:: CIV: I think you are as beautiful as ever. :: pats her on the bottom :: Now lets go get this straightened out so we can get back to the honeymoon

 Cmdr_Grumpy says:
CNS: According to the records you got your Presidential Permission to view the peace talks from the president's aide working in that office is that right?

CNS_Ens_Wharton says:
::Nods:: Grumpy: Yes, sir.

 Cmdr_Grumpy says:
CNS: Do you recall the name of this so called Aide?

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: nudges Wolf :: XO: Oh I think Mrlr is more than capable of keeping Joshua occupied.

CNS_Ens_Wharton says:
Grumpy: I believe she said her name was Kiera.

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
::smiles at her:: FCO: She is a handful

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
XO: She's spunky alright. :: smiles ::

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::growls at him but turns and stalks out of the room, the tail twitching furiously in irritation:: CO: let's not keep them waiting...my claws need a something to sharpen on.

 Cmdr_Grumpy says:
::looks at the wall on the far end of the room:: CNS: Are you quit certain of that?

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
XO: So tell me about yourself, your family, any brothers, sisters?

 CO_Captain_Grey-feather says:
:: follows her out of the room thinking to himself 'as long as she is using someone else to sharpen her claws I am happy'::

CNS_Ens_Wharton says:
Grumpy: Pretty sure, sir.

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
FCO: My mother was a diplomat, that’s how she met my father. I have a brother on the Triton, he my half brother. And my cousin is on the Delphyne

 Cmdr_Grumpy says:
CNS: If we were to call on you to testify against this Kiera would you be willing to?

CNS_Ens_Wharton says:
::Nods:: Grumpy: Yes sir.
FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
XO: Wow, a real Starfleet family.

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
FCO: Yes, seems it is the family line of business

 Cmdr_Grumpy says:
CNS: Did you do this through a video screen of just through audio?

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
XO: Not a bad business. :: grins ::

CNS_Ens_Wharton says:
Grumpy: Video. I did this through my quarters, sir.

 CO_Captain_Grey-feather says:
:: Heads for the commander's office ::

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
:: chuckles:: FCO: I seemed the logical thing for me to do, but i didnt see my brother or cousin following me

 Cmdr_Grumpy says:
CNS: This is good as we have been trying to get a line on this Kiera as it is and if you can Identify her then we can bring charges against here which will clear you.

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
FCO: My mother sees herself as the family mother hen

CNS_Ens_Wharton says:
:: Nods:: Grumpy: Thank you, sir.

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
XO: You're lucky to have so many in your family. I didn't have any brothers or sisters.

 Cmdr_Grumpy says:
CNS: Would you still like to view the Peace talks?

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::stalks up to the door and opens it without knocking, moves to the side to allow Joshua room and goes and stands silently, irritation and anger evident through every whisker::

CNS_Ens_Wharton says:
::Nods quietly:: Grumpy: Only if nothing else conflicts with anyone.
XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:

::smiles at her:: FCO: If you like I’ll introduce you to them. But I warn you my mother wont stop mothering you

 Cmdr_Grumpy says:
:: Rises:: CIV: And just who do you think you are?

 CO_Captain_Grey-feather says:
:: Walks into the commander's office, does not look happy about having to be there ::
Grumpy : Captain Grey-feather and this is Commander Mrlr

 Cmdr_Grumpy says:
CNS: I believe we can arrange it.

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
XO: Mine is exactly the same way. She thinks I need so much protection, since I'm her only baby. Oh brother! :: rolls her eyes ::

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
::smiles:: FCO: I think it’s inbuilt

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::gives Grumpy a 'that's who we are' look and then fixes the CNS under a baleful stare::

CNS_Ens_Wharton says:
::Looks up at the CIV with an apologetic look::

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
FCO: I think mom is over protective because of my mixed heritage. My grand-father Khledas wanted me to undergo the right of accenssion. She freaked

 CO_Captain_Grey-feather says:
Grumpy : I assume you received the data from my ship?

 Cmdr_Grumpy says:
CO: Ah Captain sorry to drag you down here but regulations and all. You people have been cooperating very well and I beleive we have the matter in hand. It seem that you CNS here has been a victim of a forgery scheme that has been running for a little while now.

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::shakes her head at the ensign and turns her attention back to Grumpy::

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
XO: What did you want to do?

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
FCO: I was off two minds. One part wanted to know what it was to be Klingon

 CO_Captain_Grey-feather says:
CNS: Is that true ensign?  You did not validate the documents before presenting them?

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: leans over :: XO: Of course you need to explore that part of you. After all, life is an adventure and you get to try two worlds.

CNS_Ens_Wharton says:
CO: Captain, I got these documents from the capitol itself. They were validated by them, sir.

 Cmdr_Grumpy says:
CO: Captain don't blame your CNS as far as she knew these would have been valid documents as they actually came from the President's office

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
FCO: it was an adventure at that. I came home 2 years later and i knew the path laid before me

 CO_Captain_Grey-feather says:
Grumpy: So do you know who is passing these documents?

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
XO: So, are you happy with the way things are turning out?

 
Action: A group of young people come up to the FCO and XO and invite them to a game of volley ball.

 Cmdr_Grumpy says:
CO: We have had our suspicions but with your CNS help I beleive we have enough now to charge them.

 CO_Captain_Grey-feather says:
:: glances quickly at the CNS :: CNS: Ensign don’t think you are out of the frying pan yet, you are lucky that I don’t make a present of you to the Klingons.  Being naive is part of being an ensign, but you are abusing the privilege.

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
Out loud: Although why an ensign never questions how she could acquire papers that take a lot higher rank and clearance to get...I think I will have to educate such ensign on being a bit smarter about things.

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
::smiles at her:: FCO: Yes, and it’s looking better every day

 CO_Captain_Grey-feather says:
Grumpy : Have no doubt commander that the counsellor here will be helpful in any way she can

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: glances up at the young people and smiles :: XO: I'm not exactly dressed for volleyball, but what about you?

CNS_Ens_Wharton says:
::Just blinks at all the attacks against her::

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::looks directly at the CNS with the same look she gives the twins when they misbehave and do something stupid::

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
FCO: No neither am I. I’m actually just enjoying sitting here

CTO_LtJg_Salor says:
:: standing there watching the entertainment between everyone::

 Cmdr_Grumpy says:
CO: They have been captain and if I can get you to sign this document you and your wife can get back to your honeymoon.

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: nods to the young people :: Youngsters:: Sorry all, but we're really not up to a game just now.

 CO_Captain_Grey-feather says:
CTO: And where was that Vulcan logic of yours during all of this?  Didn’t you find an ensign being granted privilege to these talks...as you say illogical?

 Cmdr_Grumpy says:
Young Woman Says XO: I am sorry to hear that you look like you would be fun to play with. :: giggles::

 CO_Captain_Grey-feather says:
:: takes the document and begins to read it over ::

CTO_LtJg_Salor says:
CO: I had my concerns, but i had no reason to doubt him.  I forget sometimes how humans can be.

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: whispers to the young lady :: YL: I think he would be too. :: giggles ::

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
:: blushes::

 CO_Captain_Grey-feather says:
CTO: You forgot?!?!  Next time we are under attack will you forget your duties?  I am disappointed Mr. Salor

 Cmdr_Grumpy says:
Young Lady Says Giggle some more at the FCO's comment as she leaves with the others::

 CO_Captain_Grey-feather says:
Grumpy : This looks in order; aware of the charges and that they will be cooperating.  I have no trouble with that :: thumb scans the document and gives it back to the commander ::

CNS_Ens_Wharton says:
::Just looks blankly ahead. <Rhapsody> Aeris: See? No one here sees your side. Your hopeless.::

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: brushes some sand from her dress :: XO: I think she had plans for you Commander.

CTO_LtJg_Salor says:
CO: I am sorry captain. I had no intentions of failing you. I can have my resignation ready for you once i return to the ship.  ::saying in the normal manner that he always does::

 Cmdr_Grumpy says:
:: looks over to the CNS: CNS: Did you have anything to add?

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
FCO: I was afraid of that. But i`d rather be with you

 CO_Captain_Grey-feather says:
CTO: Oh no you are not getting off that easy.  You will stay on the Apache, and I expect you to work your butt off impressing me

CNS_Ens_Wharton says:
::looks up at Grumpy:: Grumpy: N-no sir....::looks downcast::

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
XO: Thanks, but perhaps we should find something to do before they come back.

 Cmdr_Grumpy says:
CTO: I asked the CNS. However I haven't had a chance to ask you if you would still like to view the peace talks?

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
FCO: So what would milady like to do now?

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
::stands and offers Hope his hand::

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
XO: Know of any good places to grab a bit to eat?. :: takes his hand and stands ::

CTO_LtJg_Salor says:
Grumpy: That was my intention Commander. I find it intriguing seeing the Klingons and Romulans talking peace. But it seems, as you humans say, it was not to be.

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
FCO: What are you in the mood for?

 Cmdr_Grumpy says:
:: sees that the CO has taken care fo the documents:: CO: Again Captain I do apologize for having to bring you down here and hope that the rest of your shore leave is a good one.

CTO_LtJg_Salor says:
CO: I will always do my duty to the best of my ability. I will not let you down again.

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: thinks for moment :: XO: I don't know. Maybe something to cool us off?

 Cmdr_Grumpy says:
CTO ,CNS: If the two of you will be willing to wait I believe I can get you in.

 CO_Captain_Grey-feather says:
Grumpy : As do I, another interruption and my wife is going to make the Dominion wars look like a minor argument :: grins ::

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
FCO: A nice ice cream sundae? Double chocolate maybe?

 CO_Captain_Grey-feather says:
:: sternly:: CTO: I will expect no less.

 Cmdr_Grumpy says:
:: looks a the CIV:: CO: I really don't doubt your word on that :: smiles::

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
Grumpy: After being more idiotic than a bunch of academy students...you are still going to let them in? ::shakes her head:: I give up...

 CO_Captain_Grey-feather says:
Grumpy : Are the CTO and CNS free to resume their shore leave?

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: smiles and licks her lips :: XO: Do you think they have those big cherries here? I love cherries on my sundaes.

CNS_Ens_Wharton says:
::Looks towards the floor in fear of looking up she'd burst into tears. <Rhapsody> CNS: You pathetic excuse for an officer.

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
::smiles at her:; FCO: For you i`m sure they will

 Cmdr_Grumpy says:
CIV: It isn't their fault Cmdr they have had the best of intentions and believe me this group of forgers are very good as we have been trying to get something on them for a long time.

CTO_LtJg_Salor says:
::looks at the CNS::  CNS: excuse me Ens.  harsh words or uncalled for.

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: grabs his hand :: XO: Then let's go. :: pulls him down the beach, breaking into a run ::

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
:: offers her his hand:: FCO: May I?

 Cmdr_Grumpy says:
CO: Yes they are and as I said if they wish to remain here for just a little bit I believe I can get them into the peace talks.

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
:: smiles very sweetly at Grumpy:: Grumpy: promise me Commander....when you catch them. you’ll leave me alone with them for just 15 minutes.  ::in a more serious voice:: That’s all I'll need.

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
::is dragged along::

CTO_LtJg_Salor says:
Grumpy: that would be acceptable Cmdr.

 Cmdr_Grumpy says:
CIV: If it is possible I will.:: smiles::

Cmdr_Grumpy says:
CTO, CNS: Then if you will just give me a few minutes I will be back :: Leaves teh room::

 CO_Captain_Grey-feather says:
CTO/CNS: You are lucky that the commander is being fair, and that Mrlr didnt get ahold of you.  You can resume shore leave

CNS_Ens_Wharton says:
::Still looking down::

CTO_LtJg_Salor says:
CO: Thank you captain. I will make sure i stay out of anymore trouble.

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: stops suddenly :: XO: Ok, which way now?

 CO_Captain_Grey-feather says:
:: offers his arm to Mrlr :: CIV: Now that duty has been satisfied...shall we my love

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
::looks around to get his bearings and spots a shack:: FCO: That way I believe

CTO_LtJg_Salor says:
::turns to the CNS::  CNS: If you don't mind,  I have noticed somthng strange about yourself.

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
XO: Lead on Commander.

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::lets her irritation fade as she turns and takes his arm:: CO: Of course...and on our way back by the fountain...I suggest we throw our comm badges in it.

 Cmdr_Grumpy says:
:: returns to the room:: CTO/CNS: Cmdr, Ensign This was simpler than I expected you crew must have made a very good impression on the Romulan Ambassador as I was able to get you 2 passes in his private booth.

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
::holding her hand leads her towards the ice cream shack::

CNS_Ens_Wharton says:
::Looks up shocked:: CTO: Umm...you have. sir?

 CO_Captain_Grey-feather says:
:: walking with her :: CIV: Can't.  If we get rid of the comm badges they will send someone in person.  You want someone beaming into our room while, well while we were doing what we were doing when the comm came in?

CTO_LtJg_Salor says:
grumpy:  That would will do fine. though I never expected that.

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
::leads Hope to the shack and dusts off a seat for her::

CTO_LtJg_Salor says:
CNS: We can talk about this later if you wish to keep it private.

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::pretends to think about it::

CNS_Ens_Wharton says:
::nods quietly:: Grumpy: Thank you sir...i apologize for the trouble....

 Cmdr_Grumpy says:
CTO: neither would I but he has actually offered passes to any of the Apache's crew that wish to view the peace talks.

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: stops and begins running back down the beach :: XO: Be right back, forgot my shoes. Order for me please. :: heads back to where they were sitting ::

 Cmdr_Grumpy says:
CNS: To tell you the truth little lady you have actually been of more help than trouble.

 CO_Captain_Grey-feather says:
:: gives her a stern look :: CIV: Its not a spectator sport you know :: then smiles ::

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
::smiles at her and walks to the counter:: Waitress: One of your biggest triple chocolate sundaes with a huge cherry on top

CNS_Ens_Wharton says:
::Looks down:: Grumpy: If only the Captain would think so.

 Cmdr_Grumpy says:
:: hands the passes to the CTO and CNS :: CTO/CNS: Now if you will excuse me I have a criminal to catch.

CNS_Ens_Wharton says:
Grumpy: Thank you, sir.

CTO_LtJg_Salor says:
Grumpy: If my department can be of any assistance.
CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::grins:: CO: You're just worried that they would be jealous.

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: searches for her shoes :: Self: Ok where are they?

 Cmdr_Grumpy says:
:: leaves the room and orders the security guards to escort the pair to the Romulan Ambassidor's booth::

CTO_LtJg_Salor says:
::walking with the guards::  CSN: how long have you been hearing the voices.

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: looks around not sure where they were sitting ::

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
::takes his seat and sips on his iced coffee::

CNS_Ens_Wharton says:
::Looks shocked:: CTO: How did you know...?

 CO_Captain_Grey-feather says:
:: strikes a manly pose for her :: CIV: Well it would be traumatic for whoever came in :: smiles and winks at his wife ::

CTO_LtJg_Salor says:
::looks at her:: CNS: I am Vulcan.  I understand the mind no matter what race.  I see the presence in your eyes.

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: finally locates them and starts back for the ice cream shack ::

CNS_Ens_Wharton says:
:: Looking down again:: CTO: I've known Rhapsody for years...

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::shakes her head and says to a passer-by who was giving the CO an odd look:: Man: Don't worry...it's not contagious.  He's always that way.

CTO_LtJg_Salor says:
CNS: Perhaps I can be of assistance in dealing with this Rhapsody.

CNS_Ens_Wharton says:
CTO: What do you mean?

Action: A very drunk well build man comes up and accuses the FCO.

 CO_Captain_Grey-feather says:
:: walks up and put his arms around her :: CIV: And you wouldnt have me any other way...now would you

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: stops and backs up :: Man: Please move, you're blocking my way.

CTO_LtJg_Salor says:
CNS: I have ways to help you deal with the voices. but only if you are willing to give it up. it is your choice.

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
:: snuggles into his arms:: CO: My mother must have dropped me on my head when I was a kitten...but no...I wouldn't.  And...::lowers her voice and starts to purr::...if we hurry back upstairs...you can have me anyway you want.

 Rich says:
Drunk Says FCO: Well pretty lady maybe I would like to be with you. :: sways::

CNS_Ens_Wharton says:
:: Nods to him:: CTO: Thank you...

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
::wonders what’s keeping Hope::

CNS_Ens_Wharton says:
::Inside her head.....<Rhapsody> Aeris: You will do nothing of the kind!::

CTO_LtJg_Salor says:
CSN: after the peace talks see me back on the ship.  I'll be in my office.

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
Drunk: Well maybe I wouldn't. Now move before I have to do something I might regret.

 CO_Captain_Grey-feather says:
:: smiles mischievously :: CIV: Now there is a race worth running :: takes her paw and hurries back towards their room ::

CNS_Ens_Wharton says:
CTO: Thank you sir...

 Rich says:
Drunk Says FCO: Like you can do something to me? Know how about a little kiss? :: puckers up like he is going to kiss the FCO::
CTO_LtJg_Salor says:
::enters the private room and wonders if he will have to more aggressive with her::

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
:: stands and begins to wonder down the beach to check on Hope::

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
Drunk: Oh so that's your game. Let's see how you like kissing my fist in your gut! :: hauls off and lands a fist in his mid-section ::

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::runs into their room laughing and turns and slams the door, locking it securely.  Turns back around and starts to stalk towards the CO as if he  were prey:: CO: Now where were we?

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
:: spots Hope hit the drunk::

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: stands with her hands on her hips :: Drunk: Another? :: grins ::

 Rich says:
Drunk Says :: gets a shocked look on his face:: FCO: Wow I didn't think a girl could hit that hard. :: turns and throws up::

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
Self: Wow

CTO_LtJg_Salor says:
:: looks around the room and takes a set pulling his pad out to start taking notes::

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
::walks up to Hope:: FCO: You ok?

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
Drunk: Now get out of here before I call the local enforcement officers.

 CO_Captain_Grey-feather says:
:: moves closer and takes her in his arms.  Grabbing the zipper on her jumpsuit:: CIV: Hmmmm I think we were in the middle of the bed or maybe just a little to the left side :: kisses her ::

CNS_Ens_Wharton says:
::Enters the private booth and sits and watches the talks as they continue.::

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
:: brushes her hands off :: XO: Just fine Wolf. Had to get rid of some of the riff raff around here.

FCO_Cmdr_Lane says:
XO: Now, where's that ice cream?

XO_LtCmndr_Wolf says:
::smiles:: FCO: remind me never to tick you off. Waiting for you with a giant cherry on top
