Host CO_K`Beth says:
Summary: The USS Arondight is back on course on routine patrol.  All of the zools have been captured and the mess finally cleaned up...except there is a certain scent in the air about the CSO and CTO wherever they walk.  Just a hint of zool doo.
Host CO_K`Beth says:
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Resume Mission >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
CTO_Williams says:
::Walks down a corridor.  People seem to be looking at him still.:: Self: Argh.... I'm not standing for this.  ::He heads back to his quarters::
CSO_Taliza says:
::walks onto the bridge in a fresh, clean uniform just out of the sonic shower, which scrubbed his body down 10 times to get rid of every bit of zool doo odor, and then sprayed liberally with deodorant body spray::
XO_McDuggle says:
:: on the Bridge watching reports coming in::
Host CO_K`Beth says:
::in her ready room going over the reports about the zool and trying to figure out a way to explain the CTO setting off another explosion with more damage:: Growls out loud: I should start taking the cost or repairs out of his pocket.
CTO_Williams says:
::Strips clothing and enters the sonic shower again.:: Computer : Maximum scrub!!!
CSO_Taliza says:
::takes the science console and monitors sensors::
CSO_Taliza says:
<Johnson> ::sniffs:: CSO: Sir...?
CSO_Taliza says:
Johnson: What is it, Mike?
XO_McDuggle says:
::turns his head as he hears a sound but see nothing there::
CSO_Taliza says:
<Johnson> CSO: Sir, I think you might have overdone it.  Instead of zool doo, you now smell too much like a mink.
CNS_DiDomnia says:
::looks up from her chair in her office, almost sure that she's heard something - looks around the room to see if anyone is there but she is alone::
CSO_Taliza says:
::tunes out Johnson for a second:: Johnson: What was it?  ::turns behind him::
CSO_Taliza says:
<Johnson> CSO: Something wrong sir?

Host CO_K`Beth says:
::looks up as she hears something and looks around.  Rubs her eyes tiredly and shakes her head:: Self: I need to get more sleep. ::gets up, refreshes her coffee and steps out onto the bridge::
CTO_Williams says:
::Just before the shower engages, he hears a noise behind him.  But it dies just before the showers engage.  He sees nothing::
CSO_Taliza says:
Johnson: I thought I heard someone whispering behind me.  Was there anything there?
XO_McDuggle says:
::smell the CSO's deodorant:: CSO: Did we take a bath in your deodorant today?
CSO_Taliza says:
<Johnson> CSO: No, sir.  Maybe after this zool thing, you might be, with all due respect, paranoid about it.
CNS_DiDomnia says:
::shrugs her shoulders, hoping that it isn't anymore of those creatures, and goes back to reading reports on the flight deck incident::
CSO_Taliza says:
Johnson: Your assessment is noted, ensign.  XO: Just whatever it takes to... All: What was that?
CSO_Taliza says:
<Johnson> CSO: What is what, sir?
CNS_DiDomnia says:
::feels something brush past her shoulder and stands up, now a little more curious::  Is anyone there?
CSO_Taliza says:
Johnson: I just felt something brush by me.
Host CO_K`Beth says:
::walks over to her chair and sits down...sniffing slightly as she looks at the CSO:: CSO: What is that?
CTO_Williams says:
::The shower is engaging, but he feels another brushing by him.  It's not the shower.  It feels softer.  He wheels around and nearly slips, but sees nothing::
XO_McDuggle says:
::gets up suddenly as he feels some thing brush pass him::
XO_McDuggle says:
CSO: Did you feel something also?
Host CO_K`Beth says:
::looks at the XO:: XO: Are you all right , Commander?
CNS_DiDomnia says:
::hears a voice laughing:: OK, you can come out now...
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: So I'm not crazy.  Yeah, it was feather soft.
XO_McDuggle says:
CO: Captain I could have sworn that something just brushed pass me.
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: Did you hear a whisper as well?
CTO_Williams says:
::The shower disengages with a click:: Computer : Computer, do I smell?
CSO_Taliza says:
All: What's so funny?
Host CO_K`Beth says:
::looks around:: CSO: Scan for intruders.
XO_McDuggle says:
CSO: Yes I did and now I just heard a giggle that sounded a long way off.
CSO_Taliza says:
CO: Aye, ma'am.  ::engages internal sensors::
CNS_DiDomnia says:
::hears the voice again, further away this time - goes to the door and opens it, looking for whoever is laughing at her::
CTO_Williams says:
::The CTO's hears a slight "giggling" in the distance.  He walks out of the shower, naked, but buff.  He sees nothing still.  He quickly puts his uniform back on::
CNS_DiDomnia says:
::sees no one in the hallway:: Computer: Computer, list personnel in this section of this deck.
Host CO_K`Beth says:
::watches as Dog suddenly yips and takes off into her ready room.  Stands up and looks around her chair ad under it...seeing nothing::
XO_McDuggle says:
CSO: Run a check on the computer.
Host CO_K`Beth says:
ACTION: The computer lists out only normal on duty personnel for that deck.
CTO_Williams says:
::The CTO straps his knife to his boot, and a phaser and tricorder to his belt.  The computer has informed him he doesn't smell, to the best of its knowledge.  He heads to the TL::
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: Yes sir.  ::does so::
CNS_DiDomnia says:
::sighs:: Very funny...  ::shakes her head::
Host CO_K`Beth says:
XO: Are there any ships in the area?
XO_McDuggle says:
*CNS*: Counselor Report please.
CSO_Taliza says:
CO: Nothing unusual on the sensors.
CNS_DiDomnia says:
*XO*: Maybe my patients are getting contagious, but are you all hearing voices up there?
XO_McDuggle says:
::Check the tactical console:: CO: Nothing on sensors Captain.
XO_McDuggle says:
*CNS*: Yes we are Counselor.
CTO_Williams says:
::Enters the TL and heads up to the bridge::
Host CO_K`Beth says:
::looking towards her ready room:: All: Something spooked Dog....find out what it could be.  I'm going to check on her. ::walks off back into her ready room::
XO_McDuggle says:
CO: Captain what ever this is It is ship wide.
CSO_Taliza says:
CO: The only thing I can think of is a ghost.
CNS_DiDomnia says:
::decides to go up there herself, seeing as how the voices are making it impossible to get any work done.  *XO*: Well at least I know I'm not crazy...
CNS_DiDomnia says:
::heads to the TL to go to the Bridge::
XO_McDuggle says:
CSO: Lets start checking the electrical grid for possible shorts.
Host CO_K`Beth says:
::stops and looks over her shoulder at him before entering:: XO:  Even a ghost has to come from somewhere.  Run a full diagnostic on the systems...make certain this isn't something left over form the zool. ::the door shuts behind her::
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: Yes, sir.  ::checks the power grid::

CTO_Williams says:
::Exits the TL, and enters the bridge.  He takes his post at Tactical::
XO_McDuggle says:
ALL: You heard the Captain. Full diagnostics.
Host CO_K`Beth says:
ACTION: Suddenly a strong wind blows through the corridors and up the turbo lift shaft onto the bridge. As another giggle is heard...louder this time and heard throughout the ship::
XO_McDuggle says:
::sits down and starts the diagnostic::
CNS_DiDomnia says:
::feels the wind as she exits the TL onto the bridge, so strong this time that she visibly shivers::
CTO_Williams says:
::Draws his phaser and tricorder and starts scanning.  He sets the ships internal scanners to find any enemy signatures::
CSO_Taliza says:
::feels the breeze:: XO: Sir, this is starting to get ridiculous.  ::begins a diagnostic of his own::
XO_McDuggle says:
CSO: Is there any way that we could find out if Loki is back on the ship?
CTO_Williams says:
CO: I don't seem to be detecting anything sir.
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: Not him!  Nothing's wrong with the systems.
CNS_DiDomnia says:
::looks curious, not sure if she knows who Loki is::
Host CO_K`Beth says:
ACTION: In the ready room, Dog is heard barking furiously as the Captain shouts then Dog yelps and suddenly silence.
XO_McDuggle says:
CSO: Then if it is him hopefully he will show himself soon.
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: I doubt it's him.  At least I hope it's not him.
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: I had enough Norse mythology for one lifetime.
CTO_Williams says:
CSO: Are you picking anything up on your scanners, sir?
CSO_Taliza says:
CTO: I'm getting nothing.
XO_McDuggle says:
CSO: Lets run a sensor sweep for the Zools again just to make sure we haven't missed one.
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: Checking... ::scans for Zool::
Host CO_K`Beth says:
ACTION: Suddenly the CSO is floating in the air as more giggling can be heard.  This time a small bundle of light is dancing around the floating CSO.
XO_McDuggle says:
::finishes the diagnostic and finds nothing:: All: Report on your diagnostics?
CSO_Taliza says:
All: Help!  Something's got me!
CNS_DiDomnia says:
::eyes go wide as the CSO floats up into the air::
XO_McDuggle says:
Entity: Please identify yourself.
CSO_Taliza says:
Giggler: Let me go!
CTO_Williams says:
CSO: Permission to fire sir!! ::Waves the phaser around::

Whisp says:
::more giggling:: CSO: Play with me
CSO_Taliza says:
CTO: No!  You'll hit me!
XO_McDuggle says:
CTO: Put that up Lt.
CSO_Taliza says:
Whisp: Play?  You want me to play!
CTO_Williams says:
CSO: It's alright!  I think I can hit it! ::Waits::  XO: Put what up?
CNS_DiDomnia says:
CTO: Don't antagonize it - I don't think it means any harm.
XO_McDuggle says:
CTO: Your phaser.
Whisp says:
:: moves over and brushes past the XO:: XO: Identify, big words...
XO_McDuggle says:
Whisp: I would like to know what to call you.
CTO_Williams says:
::Sighs, and puts his phaser onto his console:: XO: I could wide beam the phaser and hit it!
XO_McDuggle says:
CTO: And I said no.
Whisp says:
::grasp the CTO's phaser.  The weapons points around the room.  At one target then another:: All: OOOOOoooo shiny
CSO_Taliza says:
::still floating:: CTO: Likely the beam would have passed through this thing and you'd get me instead!
XO_McDuggle says:
Whisp: Careful with that you could hurt someone.
CSO_Taliza says:
::reaches for the floating phaser:: Whisp: Put that down!  It's dangerous!
CNS_DiDomnia says:
Whisp:  That isn't a toy... why don't you put it down?  ::speaking like she would to a child::
CSO_Taliza says:
::tries to do the breaststroke in the air toward the phaser::
Whisp says:
All: Mine....no mine :: the CSO and phaser pull away from each other::
XO_McDuggle says:
*CO*: Captain. We seem to have an entity on the bridge.
CSO_Taliza says:
::changes stroke to the American crawl and gains on the phaser::
Host CO_K`Beth says:
INFO: There is no answer to the XO's call to the CO.
Whisp says:
:: the phaser fires at different things on the bridge, the XO's PADD is vaporized :: All: Pretty lights
CSO_Taliza says:
CTO: Can you deactivate that phaser?
CTO_Williams says:
::Heads to an ordinance cabinet:: All: I could fire off a stun grenade.  It would hit us all, but take out the wisp too!  It wouldn't hurt that much!
CNS_DiDomnia says:
Whisp:  You need to put that down, or else no one will play with you.
XO_McDuggle says:
Whisp: Please give that to me before you hurt someone.

CTO_Williams says:
CSO: I could try.  ::Heads back to his console and attempts to disable the phaser remotely::
Whisp says:
:: the phaser fires back at the light :: All: Oweeeee
CSO_Taliza says:
Whisp: See?  That thing is dangerous!
CTO_Williams says:
::Presses the final button of the phaser deactivation button::
Whisp says:
:: all the stun grenades float out of the cabinet and away from the CTO,  the begin twirling like being juggled :: All: This is fun
CSO_Taliza says:
Whisp: Hey, kid, what's your name?
CNS_DiDomnia says:
Whisp:  Those will hurt you, just like the shiny thing hurt you... do you want to get hurt again?  ::is starting to realize why she never had children - this wasn't easy::
Host CO_K`Beth says:
ACTION: The CSO drops to the floor suddenly.
CTO_Williams says:
::Sighs:: All: can someone please give me an order, or else I'll have to try something to protect ourselves.
XO_McDuggle says:
Whisp: That is enough those aren't toys and you are not allow to play with them.
CSO_Taliza says:
::lands on his butt in the command deck::
XO_McDuggle says:
CTO: Just stand by for now.
Whisp says:
ALL: That mean fuzzy thing and lady with bumps on her head try to hurt Whisp, make her and fuzzy thing go away...all better now
CSO_Taliza says:
Whisp: You killed Dog?
Whisp says:
XO: You are not the mommy
CSO_Taliza says:
::goes to the captain's ready room::
CNS_DiDomnia says:
::eyes widened:: Computer: Location of Captain K'Beth.
Whisp says:
CSO: No kill, just send away...far away
XO_McDuggle says:
Whisp: Maybe not but I am in charge here.
CNS_DiDomnia says:
Whisp:  Where is the mommy, then?
CSO_Taliza says:
::presses the RR door open button::
Host CO_K`Beth says:
<Computer> CNS: Captain K'Beth is not on board.
Whisp says:
:: the XO floats out of his chair:: XO: If you in charge you can play with me and give me more toys that make pretty lights
CTO_Williams says:
Whisp: Show yourself, stop playing stupid games!  ::Attempts to scan for energy signatures with his tricorder, scanning for weaknesses::
CNS_DiDomnia says:
::sighs:: Computer: That's what I thought.

CSO_Taliza says:
XO: Commander!  The ready room's been ransacked!
XO_McDuggle says:
::hears the computer's report:: Whisp: I will not play with you and you will return the Captain to this ship.
Whisp says:
:: the CTO is pushed to the floor:: All: I am not stupid, you mean man.  Make you go with bumpy lady and fuzzy thing
CSO_Taliza says:
Whisp: ...And when you bring back the bumpy lady and fuzzy thing, clean up your mess in that room.
Whisp says:
:: drops the XO back into his seat:: All: No, not my room I don’t have to clean it...::giggling:: But I take you to my room
XO_McDuggle says:
Whisp: No you will return them and leave this ship.
CSO_Taliza says:
Whisp: On this ship, visitors have to clean their own messes.
XO_McDuggle says:
::nods to the CTO to erect a force field around Whisp::
Host CO_K`Beth says:
ACTION: The entire ship shakes  as the view screen blurs and whirls and suddenly the view changes to a brightly colored nebula.  Floating in there can be the small figures of the captain and Dog held in her arms.
CSO_Taliza says:
::looks at the screen:: Whisp: You turned our captain and her dog into toys?
XO_McDuggle says:
CSO: See if you can transport the Captain and Dog back aboard the ship.
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: I'll try.  ::attempts to lock onto the captain and Dog::
Whisp says:
CSO: Uh huh, toys...bad toys
CSO_Taliza says:
Whisp: They're NOT toys!  They're flesh and blood beings.
Whisp says:
XO: No take my toys
Host CO_K`Beth says:
ACTION: The figures could be seen starting to materialize but then the transporter fails and they are left floating out there again.
XO_McDuggle says:
Whisp: They are not toys and you can't have them.
Whisp says:
CSO: I can fix that my daddy taught me how
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: Our visitor has blocked the transporter.
CSO_Taliza says:
Whisp: Where are your parents?
CTO_Williams says:
::Dazed.  Gets up and hits forcefield button::
XO_McDuggle says:
Whisp: Then maybe we should talk to your Daddy.
CTO_Williams says:
::Also hits the red alert button, and begins setting up force fields around the ship::
XO_McDuggle says:
:: Nods to the CSO::

Whisp says:
:: swooshes in and out through the forcefield, in a voice that sounds like it shaking:: All:OOOooooo tickles
CTO_Williams says:
::Notices something odd to the side of the panel:: XO: Sir, we are 1000 light years from our previous coordinates.
CSO_Taliza says:
::takes a look at sensor data from when the Whisp passes through the force field, changes frequency of field to contain it the next time it passes through::
Whisp says:
XO: NO.  No talk to daddy,
XO_McDuggle says:
Whisp: Yes I will talk to you Father.
Whisp says:
:: swooshes the forcefield ::  All: OOOOooo tickles and pretty color now
CTO_Williams says:
::Juices up the forcefield to above standard levels::
CSO_Taliza says:
Whisp: You've been a bad spirit.
XO_McDuggle says:
CSO: Open Comms
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: Comms open.
Whisp says:
:: the XO’s chair spins around with him in it:: XO: No talk to daddy ::cries::
CNS_DiDomnia says:
::suddenly feels as if another being has joined the fray... not human, just a presence on the ship::
XO_McDuggle says:
Whisp: Then put every thing back as it should be and maybe I won’t talk to your Dad.
CTO_Williams says:
Self:  Grrr.... tickle this... ::Juices up the force fields even more, and extends the frequency to even higher levels, in theory blocking all energy matter::
CNS_DiDomnia says:
Whisp:  Why shouldn't we talk to your daddy?  Is he not here?
CSO_Taliza says:
::sees the XO spinning:: 
CSO_Taliza says:
COMM: Whisp's parents: This is the USS Arondight.  Your son has disrupted our ship and turned our captain and her dog into action figures.  We need some help in disciplining him.
CNS_DiDomnia says:
::wonders if this new presence is Whisp's "daddy"::
Whisp says:
CSO: You call mommy and daddy on communicator,  you funny
CSO_Taliza says:
Whisp: I'm very serious.
CNS_DiDomnia says:
Whisp:  How should we call them, then?
XO_McDuggle says:
Whisp: Are you going to put everything right?
Host CO_K`Beth says:
ACTION: A large low rumbling can be heard as the XO's chair stops spinning and the little light that is Whisp starts to quiver.  Whisp moves easily through the force field as if it isn't there and hovers in the CNS's lap, shaking.
CNS_DiDomnia says:
::looks down at him, concerned:: Whisp:  What's the matter?

Whisp says:
CNS: Oh oooo.
CSO_Taliza says:
All: Sounds like daddy's here.
XO_McDuggle says:
::hears the rumbling:: Entity: Are you Whisp's Father?
CNS_DiDomnia says:
Whisp: Who's this new person here?
CTO_Williams says:
::Lowers the forcefield energy levels.  The emitters are getting hot::
CSO_Taliza says:
Self: Someone's gonna get a spankin'.
Whisp says:
CSO:  I don't want that
XO_McDuggle says:
CTO: Drop the force fields.
Host CO_K`Beth says:
<Entity> ::in a low rumbling voice:: XO: My son has been very bad and I am sorry for any trouble he has caused.  Has he caused any malfunction to any of your beings?
CTO_Williams says:
::Sighs.  Some days he wishes he could do it his way. Lowers the force fields::
CSO_Taliza says:
Entity: What are you folks, anyway?
Whisp says:
Entity:  No mommy I didn't break nothing this time, honest
XO_McDuggle says:
Entity: The only serious thing that he has done is to place our Captain and her dog in the nebula.
Host CO_K`Beth says:
<Entity> XO: I shall return them to you. ::suddenly the Captain and Dog appear on the bridge of the floor frozen solid:: You are not the first of your kind that he has brought here.
CSO_Taliza says:
Entity: And he made a mess in our captain's ready room.
Whisp says:
CNS: That’s the mean bumpy lady and her fuzzy, see they are back now.  Tell mommy it’s alright
CNS_DiDomnia says:
Whisp: Why aren't they moving?
CSO_Taliza says:
::moves to the captain and Dog, scanning with tricorder::
XO_McDuggle says:
Entity: If you could return them to their former living selves it would be helpful Thank you.
Whisp says:
CNS: Better to play with when they don’t run away
CNS_DiDomnia says:
Whisp: Well, in order to make everything all right again, they have to be able to move... see, right now my people think they're broken.
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: They're just frozen solid.  It's as if they're in suspended animation.
CNS_DiDomnia says:
Whisp:  So you need to fix them, please...
Whisp says:
::excitedly:: CNS: This way they stay like this forever, toys never break

Host CO_K`Beth says:
<Entity> CSO: For which he will be punished.  ::the low rumbling sound can be heard again and Whisps light is very dim and droopy now:: It is hard for him to understand that you are not of our kind.  But he shall be made aware.  It is difficult for me to translate our beings and thoughts into what you understand.  But I give you apologies
CTO_Williams says:
::Attempts to scan the CO to see what state she is in::
XO_McDuggle says:
Whisp: Then you can return them back to the way they were
CNS_DiDomnia says:
Whisp: But, we don't want them to be toys, we need them to be people again.
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: The Whisp is right.  It seems the captain and Dog are made of plastic.
Whisp says:
CNS: I have to go with mommy now, sorry I cannot play longer :: in a soft innocent voice ::  Bye
Whisp says:
:: disappears::
CSO_Taliza says:
Whisp: Wait!  You have to reanimate the captain!
Host CO_K`Beth says:
<Entity> XO: You will be returned to your place and time.
CNS_DiDomnia says:
::opens her mouth to ask Whisp to put the CO back to normal, but he disappears::
XO_McDuggle says:
Entity: Thank you and if you could reanimate the captain and her dog  we would like it very much.
Host CO_K`Beth says:
ACTION: Suddenly everything goes black and then the ship is back exactly where they started.  The Captain and Dog have disappeared from the deck.  Just as everyone gets reoriented the ready room door opens and the CO steps out with Dog.  A coffee cup in her hand.
XO_McDuggle says:
CO: Good to see you Captain.
CSO_Taliza says:
::notices the CO and Dog return from the RR:: CO: What the... I thought... you and... and you have... what about...?
CTO_Williams says:
::sighs:: Self: I hate all this foolish omnipotent being garbage...
Host CO_K`Beth says:
::walks onto the bridge shaking her head and rubbing her temple:: All:  Must have fallen asleep on the couch, I just had the strangest dream. ::looks at the staring at her:: What?  What happened?
Host CO_K`Beth says:
