Host CO_Farrel says:
Captain's log stardate 10312.12.  Our second away team is continuing its investigation of the alien device on Jinatara IV in hopes that we can use it to bring back our first away team and the original survey team that went missing.  Meanwhile aboard the Artemis we continue to monitor for pirate activity.

CTO_Peters says:
@::A half day from camp she continues to creep along the jungle.  The small group just finished a short break and have refreshed.::

CMO_Russel says:
::In sickbay, preparing for the unexpected... which they usually were any ways.::

Jogab says:
@::in the camp working on finishing the windmill::

OPS_Regnum says:
$::puzzling over the statement on the console::

Host CO_Farrel says:
::Sitting on the bridge feeling refreshed after last night's dinner and a good night of sleep.  Her mind turns back to their "guest".  Taps armpad::  *CMO* Farrel to Russel, what's the status of Mr. Quill?  Is it safe to transfer him to the brig yet?

CMO_Russel says:
::Glances over at the man who seems too happy.::  *CO*:  At your pleasure.

Jogab says:
@::Hammers a piece in place::

CTO_Peters says:
@::Sees several animals move in front of her and she stops a moment just to watch.  Turning she motions for Jacobs to move ahead.:: Smithers:  Anything yet?  We are going to need a defensible position for the night.

Glitch says:
$Regnum: This doesn't make any sense.

CTO_Peters says:
<Smithers>  CTO: Aye Ma'am, I've found something...we are looking at another 3 hrs though.

CSO_KTor says:
@::Walking along in the jungle a few metres from Zoe, scanning for useful items every ten minutes::

Jogab says:
@::Drags the windmill towards the device to set it up there::

OPS_Regnum says:
$Glitch: No, no it doesn't "TO FLEE . . . LOOKING . . STARS . OPENED GATES . . PRESS FARTHER . . FLEE . . JONTAL"

CMO_Russel says:
::Puts her work down and gets up to walk over to the pirate.::

Host CO_Farrel says:
*CMO* Excellent, Mr. Rice will be down to carry out the transfer.

CTO_Peters says:
@::Grumbles under her breath.::  Smithers:  Ok, start heading there.  ::Checks her tricorder.:: Jacobs:  Jacobs head to your left 34.5 degrees north.

Jogab says:
@::Sets up the windmill near the device::

Jogab says:
@::Finishes setting it up and connects the power line to the device::

CMO_Russel says:
::Opens a drawer and tosses him his clothes.  Quietly, yet intensely. ::  Quill:  Time to prepare for your new home.  ::Leans down::  Mr. Quill, do not cause my captain any further grief.

Host CO_Farrel says:
TO: Mr. Rice, I want you to personally oversee the transfer of Quill to the brig.  Take every precaution.

CTO_Peters says:
@::Pulls out her water bottle for a drink of water.::

Host CO_Farrel says:
<Security> ::Two guards stand over Quill, waiting for the arrival of Rice::

CMO_Russel says:
::Steps back and nods to the security officer to keep his weapon trained on the man::  Security:  Phaser to kill...

Jogab says:
@::pulls the piece blocking the windmill from working and sees what happens::

Host CO_Farrel says:
<TO_Rice> ::Grins:: CO: Yes sir!  ::Gives his station to a relief and enter the TL:: Computer: Deck 4

CMO_Russel says:
::Feeling slightly guilty, she pushes it aside.  Hali came before this cretin.  Reaches over and activates the straps holding the pirate down.::

OPS_Regnum says:
$Glitch: Well we know what most of it means, and we can be reasonably sure this is some sort of transporter, the question is, why can't they get back?

CTO_Peters says:
@::Leans up against a tree for a moment and taps her combadge.::  *CSO*:  K'Tor, how are things going?  Any progress?  We are heading for a clearing for the night so we have another 3 hrs of walking to do.  Nothing significant to report yet.

Host CO_Farrel says:
<Security> ::The guards nod at the doctor’s order, and both glance down setting phaser to kill, then look up again::

CSO_KTor says:
*CTO*: I haven't found anything useful either sir.

Glitch says:
$Regnum: Perhaps there isn't another console on the other side?

CMO_Russel says:
::Looks intently at the man, daring him to do something stupid.::

Jogab says:
*CSO/CTO*:Status report.

OPS_Regnum says:
$Glitch: No I don't think so, that doesn't make sense, why would someone build a transporter without a way back, it stands to reason that there has to be another transporter on the other side

CTO_Peters says:
*CSO*:  Keep at it.  I'll contact you when we camp for the night.

Jogab says:
@::notices his windmill starts to work::

CSO_KTor says:
@::Stops walking and scans 360 with his tricorder and, finding nothing of interest, keeps on walking::

CTO_Peters says:
*Jogab*:  Nothing significant to report we are heading for our camp sight now.  ::Sees that Jacobs is getting too far ahead of her::  Jacobs:  Hey hold up..wait till we are all together!

Host CO_Farrel says:
<TO_Rice>  ::Enters sickbay:: Alright...  Quill: We are going to beam you to the brig, security is in place there as well.  ::Gets up close to his face::  So don't try anything. ::Glares and steps back::

Quill says:
TO: Yeah right.

OPS_Regnum says:
$::looks at the Starfleet issue portable generator next to the console:: Self: I wonder....

Quill says:
TO: You would fail.

Glitch says:
$Regnum: What?

CMO_Russel says:
:: Is so tempted to plant the thought in Quill's head to try to escape.  But to do that, would be to take a step she could never retrieve, just as she had warned the captain.  Taking a deep breath, she turns back to her work.::

Host CO_Farrel says:
<TO_Rice>  CMO: Doctor if you'll step back.... ::He draws his phaser and takes aim at Quill::  Team: Aim weapons, standby.  ::The other two guards take aim at Quill::

OPS_Regnum says:
$Glitch: There has to be a reason why this generator is hooked up here ::walks over to the console and unplugs the generator::

Quill says:
ALL:I will escape this ship and return to my comrades. I will destroy this ship.

CSO_KTor says:
@<Jacobs> ::Slows down:: CTO: Sorry Lt. ::Shifts his pack to balance out the weight::

Host CO_Farrel says:
<TO_Rice> Quill: Fail?  Just try it and we'll find out who will end up destroyed.

CMO_Russel says:
::Listening to Quills blathering, shakes her head and composes herself to write some letters to the families of the dead.::

Quill says:
CMO: If it helps I don't like to kill. But I have to in my profession.

Host SM_Sergio says:
ACTION : As Regnum unplugs the generator, the lights on the device go out.

CTO_Peters says:
@Smithers:  Ok Smithers take point and lead us to our beds for the night.

OPS_Regnum says:
$Self: Well that answers that question.

Host CO_Farrel says:
<TO_Rice>  ::Rolls eyes as the man, clearly a psychopath, tries to mimic some kind of remorse::

OPS_Regnum says:
$COMM: Artemis: Regnum to Artemis, do we have an equipment manifest that the research team had with them?

Quill says:
::glares at the TO::

CTO_Peters says:
@<Smithers> CTO:  Aye... ::Moves in front of Jacobs.  She pulls out some apples and tosses them back to Jacobs, K'Tor and Peters.::

Quill says:
TO: Lets fight hand to hand and get this settled.

Host SM_Sergio says:
<Artemis OPS> *OPS* : Certainly, why?

OPS_Regnum says:
$*Artemis OPS* How many portable generators did they have, and how many are left at their base camp?

CTO_Peters says:
@::Catches the apple and takes a bite.::

CSO_KTor says:
@::Catches the tossed apple:: Smithers: Thanks.

Quill says:
TO: If you have honor.

CMO_Russel says:
::Continues to ignore the pirate, not willing to bait him into a conversation best served by the counselor.::

CTO_Peters says:
@<Smithers> CSO:  Your welcome there Lt.

Host SM_Sergio says:
<Artemis OPS> *OPS* : I'm reading... 2 power sources back at the camp, and they had 3 listed in the cargo manifest, so one's missing...

OPS_Regnum says:
$*Artemis OPS* And that one is here, so wherever this team is, they don't have one with them.

Quill says:
TO: You are afraid.

Host SM_Sergio says:
<Artemis OPS> *OPS* : What do you mean wherever they are?

Host CO_Farrel says:
<TO_Rice> What did you say? ::Holster his phaser and glares at the man:: Quill: I'll show you what honor is all about buddy...I accept your challenge

Glitch says:
$::mutters:: Boneheads...

Quill says:
TO: Would you like to make it interesting?

OPS_Regnum says:
$Glitch: shh!

CMO_Russel says:
::Turns around at Rice's words, not quite sure what to expect.::

CTO_Peters says:
@::Trips over a branch and falls onto her face.::  Self: @(#*@... ::All under her breath.::

Host CO_Farrel says:
<TO_Rice> Quill: What did you have in mind?

CSO_KTor says:
@::Stops and helps Peters up:: CTO: You OK?

Quill says:
TO:A fight to the Death on the hull of this Ship.

OPS_Regnum says:
$*Artemis OPS* Assuming that both teams are still alive, this console is some sort of transporter.  Also it does not work without a power source, one of the research team's portable generators is here hooked to the console.  The away team was examining this console when they vanished.

CTO_Peters says:
@::Lets K'Tor help her up.  She brushes off the dirt.:: CSO: Yeah I'm just ducky... stupid branches.

Quill says:
TO: With nothing but daggers for weapons.

Quill says:
TO: In EVAC suits.

CMO_Russel says:
::Shakes her head::  TO:  Ensign... until he leaves sickbay, he is under my protection...

CSO_KTor says:
@::Nods, then scans around with the tricorder:: CTO: Nothing.

Host SM_Sergio says:
<Artemis OPS> *OPS* : Oh.. Alright... But.. Have you figured out how to activate the device?

Quill says:
TO: Bring me to the brig so we can get ready for the fight.

CTO_Peters says:
@CSO:  What a useless planet...  Great vacation spot though.. it could almost be another Risa.

CMO_Russel says:
::Walks over to the security officer and takes him to the side so no one can here her talk to him.::

Host CO_Farrel says:
<TO_Rice>  Quill: Not to the death, and no weapons.  I want this to be a man's fight, bare fists, first one to get KO'd looses

CSO_KTor says:
@CTO: I'm sure the crew will get us off.

Host CO_Farrel says:
<TO_Rice> CMO: Sorry doctor....I don't know what I was thinking....I'll move him to the brig now

CTO_Peters says:
@CSO: Yeah if they find us.  If not...luxury condos here we come.  We could be ready.

CMO_Russel says:
::Quietly::  TO:  I know you can take the man, but consider, if he is in the brig, he is under the khitamer protection.

CMO_Russel says:
TO:  The CTO will have your ears if you get into trouble.

CMO_Russel says:
TO:  Also... what you do, reflects on the captain.

Quill says:
TO:Very well your funeral. But we need space to fight.

OPS_Regnum says:
$*Artemis OPS* Well we don't have the full translation yet, but I believe we probably have about as much as the away team did, and there is only one thing on the translation that looks like it might be instructions, the rest are informative or narrative

Host CO_Farrel says:
<TO_Rice> ::Whispers aside:: CMO: He called me a coward...How can I just walk away from that?

CMO_Russel says:
::Looks contemptuously at the pirate::  TO:  Are you telling me that what he says is more important then what we think?

CTO_Peters says:
@CSO:  Anything that can be construed as a power source?

Quill says:
TO: You gonna do it?

Host CO_Farrel says:
<TO_Rice> CMO: IF I walk away from a guy insulting me like that, my peers will have no respect for me, word will spread around the ship.  I will not be spoken of like a coward!

CSO_KTor says:
@CTO: There are some basic chemicals, but nothing of the magnitude we need.

CSO_KTor says:
@CTO: The only possibility is a lightning strike, and we haven't seen any storms.

CMO_Russel says:
TO:  If you do, what everyone else wants to do, you will not be allowed to walk the halls of this ship.  ::Sighs::  You will not even be on this ship.

CTO_Peters says:
@CSO:  Nothing we can use to experiment with?

CSO_KTor says:
@CTO: Not really. All we could build is a crude electrical battery. It might heat and light us for a few hours, but it won't run a transporter.

Quill says:
TO: If you don't you are a coward.

OPS_Regnum says:
$*Artemis OPS* The translation currently says "TO FLEE . . . LOOKING . . STARS . OPENED GATES . . PRESS FARTHER . . FLEE . . JONTAL"  only one thing on there can be considered some sort of instructions without further translation from the extra characters, and that's "PRESS FARTHER"

CTO_Peters says:
@CSO:  Actually that is better then nothing.  If we are stuck here we want light, power source to cook etc.

Host CO_Farrel says:
<TO_Rice>  CMO: I understand....my apologies for causing any disturbance in your sickbay....  ::Glares at Quill as he turns back::  *TR* Transporter room, beam Mr. Quill directly to Brig  cell A1

CSO_KTor says:
@CTO: Good point.

Quill says:
TO:COWARD!

Host SM_Sergio says:
<Artemis OPS> OPS : Well, you're the one standing there, you know better... So I’m guessing you will need a power supply? I can beam one to the entrance of the caves you're on.

CMO_Russel says:
TO:  I owe you a drink.

CTO_Peters says:
@CSO:  How about water?

CMO_Russel says:
::Glad the TO will not get into trouble for the cretin, but sorry that Hali may yet have to deal with him.::

CSO_KTor says:
@CTO: I'm picking up a small river... ::points:: about 6km that way.

OPS_Regnum says:
$*Artemis OPS* A Good plan, beam it down, while I'm walking to the entrance. I'll COMM the captain and ask for permission.

CTO_Peters says:
@::Debates....:: CSO:  Ok lets detour... I'd rather camp by a river anyway..  Have Smithers change course.

Host CO_Farrel says:
<Transporter Chief> ::Beams Quill directly to the brig cell::  <Security> ::There are two guards standing with phasers drawn at the brig, once quill materializes they activate the forcefield::

Host SM_Sergio says:
<Artemis OPS> OPS : Alright... It'll be waiting for you when you get there.

OPS_Regnum says:
$::begins walking toward the cave entrance:: *CO* Regnum to Captain Farrel.

CSO_KTor says:
@*Smithers*: I just found a river, we've decided to camp by it. Bearing 27 range 6km.

CTO_Peters says:
@<Smithers> CSO:  Gotcha boss... adjusting course....  ::Swerves.::

Host CO_Farrel says:
<TO_Rice>  ::Exits Sickbay, the two remaining guards follow:: <TO_Jax>  Rice: Sir, your not going to let him get away with that are you?  <TO_Rice> ::Gives Jax a look as they step into the TL:: Main brig.

Host CO_Farrel says:
COM:OPS: Farrel here.

CMO_Russel says:
~~~~CO:  Hali... I like Rice.  The CTO is fond of him.  That fool of a pirate taunted him about his courage and honor...~~~~  ::Doesn't think she needs to say anything more.::

Host CO_Farrel says:
<TO_Rice> ::Enters the brig with Jax, there are now four guards in the brig.  Rice hands his phaser to Jax, and removes the top half of his uniform, now wearing just an undershirt::  Quill:  You want a fight, I’ll give you a fight

OPS_Regnum says:
$*CO* I believe I know why the away team has not been able to return from wherever they are.

Host CO_Farrel says:
::Her head jerks up at that comment::  ~~~CMO: Thanks for the heads up~~~  ::She checks Rice's location on the computer.  Then, she stands and enters the TL:: Main brig!

CMO_Russel says:
::Puts her head into her hands hoping she did not make matters worse.::

CTO_Peters says:
@CSO:  So is this an extensive river?  Possibility for settlement?

Host CO_Farrel says:
::Riding the TL hands on her hips::  COM:OPS: What's your theory Mr. Regnum? ::Manages a smile, even though she is worried about what is about to face:: 

CSO_KTor says:
@::Looks at his tricorder:: CTO: It's fairly small, but it could support a human village.

OPS_Regnum says:
$*CO* The console is being powered by one of the research team's portable generators.  All of the generators in their manifest is accounted for, which indicates that wherever the team is, they are without a generator.

CMO_Russel says:
@::Wanting some form of comfort, she touches her bond with her husband and relaxes, glad someone is happy.::

CTO_Peters says:
@CSO:  Worth scouting out then... it doesn't hurt to plan ahead.. I noticed in that clearing no for seeable water source and such..

Host CO_Farrel says:
COM:OPS: Ahhh...so you believe they haven't returned because they have no power?

OPS_Regnum says:
$*CO* It stands to reason if this console needs a portable generator, then a generator is probably needed on the other side to return.

Quill says:
TO: Sure.

CSO_KTor says:
@CTO: We may want to move our camp there.

Quill says:
::takes off his shirt::

Host CO_Farrel says:
COM: OPS: Do you know enough about the device to attempt to send a power generator to them?

CTO_Peters says:
@CSO:  Ok then. ::Nods  Lets see if there are any dangers there... any life forms in the vicinity?

Host CO_Farrel says:
<TO_Rice> ::Deactivates the forcefield, steps in, and the field is reactivated once he is inside.  He puts his fist up, and circles his opponent slowly, sizing him up::

CSO_KTor says:
@CTO: Nothing beyond small animals.

CTO_Peters says:
@CSO:  Even better.

OPS_Regnum says:
$*CO* There was nothing in the room except the generator which was physically connected to the console, I know the away team had equipment with them, so it seems that activating the console will send everything that is in the room to the other side.  I believe I can activate the console and bring a generator to them.

Quill says:
::puts his fists up and enters his Klingon martial arts stance::

OPS_Regnum says:
$::has arrived at the mouth of the cave and has started walking back with the generator that had been beamed down to him::

Quill says:
::Sizes up his opponent::

Quill says:
::swings at the TO::

Host CO_Farrel says:
*OPS* Very well, have glitch send all the data you've translated on how to operate the device to the ship, just incase we have to come looking for you.  Then make your attempt

Quill says:
::hits him in the mouth::

Quill says:
::punches him where the sun don't shine::

Host CO_Farrel says:
<TO_Rice>  ::As Quill connect to his mouth, Rice returns with a punch to Quill's stomach::

Quill says:
::kicks his face in::

Quill says:
::Does a spin kick and block::

Quill says:
::continues to rotates his different attacks::

Host CO_Farrel says:
<TO_Rice> ::Side steps the first kick, and blocks the second kick with his forearms, grunting from a twinge of pain.::

Quill says:
::punches him in the face::

OPS_Regnum says:
$::arrives back in the chamber and hooks the original generator back to the console and watches it light up:: *CO* I have already uploaded all my findings, ready to go.  With any luck, I'll be back with a half dozen friends in no time.

Quill says:
::grabs him and throws him::

CMO_Russel says:
::Completes her report on the death of the child and the mother’s reactions and sends it to the councilor.::

Host CO_Farrel says:
*OPS* Good luck Mr. Regnum, Farrel out.  ::Sighs and steps out of the turbo, walking down the corridor, not sure what she will find up ahead....::

Host CO_Farrel says:
<TO_Rice> ARRRRG! ::lands across the cell.  get up and charges at quill, pushing him into the wall with all the force directed on quill's stomach::

Quill says:
::waits for him to get up and fight::

OPS_Regnum says:
$::Holds Glitch and the generator under his left arm, and then hovers his finger over the farther symbol and winces quickly before breathing in a deep breath, opening his eyes back up and pressing the "FARTHER" symbol::

CTO_Peters says:
@CSO:  Ok, how much further now?  ::Grins and winks::  Meaning... Are we there yet?  ::Uses a whiney voice.::

Host SM_Sergio says:
ACTION : Regnum is transported to the other planet.

Host CO_Farrel says:
<TO_Rice> ::As they slam against the wall, Rice head-butts Quill::

CSO_KTor says:
@CTO: Only another 2.5km.

Quill says:
::groans at the head butt::

CTO_Peters says:
@::Sighs::  CSO:  You need to get a sense of humour my friend.

Glitch says:
@Glitch: What a rush, did it work?

Quill says:
TO:AHHH!

Host CO_Farrel says:
<Security> ::The room begins to fill with several members of the security force, they all standback and begin loudly cheering, egging both men on::

CMO_Russel says:
::Glances around the quiet room::  MO: Sarah... prepare a med kit and go down to the brig.  I don't want that man back here unless he is critical.

Quill says:
::grabs him and wrestles with him::

CSO_KTor says:
@CTO: Perhaps.

Glitch says:
@Regnum: Well this place looks the same as the room we just left, but there is now only one generator, the one under your arm

CMO_Russel says:
<MO Paris> ::Looks oddly at the doctor and puts aside her work.::  CMO:  Yes ma'am.

Quill says:
::tries to regain the upper hand::

CTO_Peters says:
@::Sticks her tongue out at K'Tor.::

Glitch says:
@Regnum: Speaking of which, can you get me out from under your arm man, my sensors are picking up quite a stench

Host CO_Farrel says:
::Sees several TO's dart in the doors up ahead, she frowns and enters, she looks through the cheering crowd with a horrified expression as she see's Rice and Quill locked in combat::

Quill says:

OPS_Regnum says:
@Glitch: Oh.. Sorry ::takes out Glitch from under his arm and then taps his comm badge:: *CTO,CSO* Regnum to Artemis away team, can you hear me?

Quill says:
::trips over the TO's foot::

Host CO_Farrel says:
ALL: What the hell is going on? ::But her yells are unnoticed, drowned out by the cheering crowd, as the two men continue to fight::

Quill says:
::falls to the ground swinging::

CSO_KTor says:
@::Jumps at hearing Regnum's voice:: *OPS*: Lt. K'Tor here, we read you.

CTO_Peters says:
@::Grabs K'Tor's arm::  OPS:  Is the Regnum?

CSO_KTor says:
@CTO: I told you they’d get here.

Quill says:
::hits his head on the bed::

OPS_Regnum says:
@*CSO* Good to hear you Lieutenant, I've brought you a generator, anybody looking for a ticket home?

Quill says:
:: quits::

CSO_KTor says:
@*OPS*: Sure. Many people.

Quill says:
TO: We are evenly matched almost.

Quill says:
TO:I quit.

Host CO_Farrel says:
::Scowls and grabs the phaser out of the holster from the man in front of her.  She fires it at the ceiling sending sparks everywhere.  The whole room comes to a standstill and everyone looks over to see the captain in shock:: ALL: I said, what the hell is going on? ::Slowly strides to the center of the room as the crowd steps back, and she looks around with a look of anger::

CTO_Peters says:
@*OP*: You didn't bring a transporter here with you did you?  ::Laughs::  We are about a day out from your position and we will have to camp for the night.. Would tomorrow suffice for you?

Quill says:
TO: We both are even now.

Quill says:
::lies down on the bed::

OPS_Regnum says:
@*CSO* I can wait for ya here, meet me back at the point we entered this world, I'm going to hook up the generator and make sure this console works the same as the other

CMO_Russel says:
<MO Paris>  ::Arriving, feels dwarfed in the room with all the security officers.  Wonders if this was why her petite CMO did not want to come.::

CTO_Peters says:
