Captain's log, Stardate 10502.02 - We're about to beam down to the planet again, to attend the wedding ceremony.  What exactly to expect, we do not know.  We'll find that out soon enough.  I just hope it doesn't require any weird rituals on our part.

CIV_Turner says:
@::Yawns.::

CNS_Ens_Gail says:
::Walks  with the others towards the chapel, in her white dress uniform.::

CSO_T`Lena says:
::Heads with the others to the chapel in dress uniform.::

CIV_Turner says:
@::Slowly gets up from his bunk and removes the PADD from his chest.::

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  The chapel, from the outside, is beautifully lit by dazzling spotlights, shining on the important structure.

CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Approaching the chapel, looking around at the marvelous decorations, never having seen anything like it before.::

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  Several hundred people are around, all waiting for the grooms on the outside of the chapel.

CIV_Turner says:
@Self:  Boy, I must have been really tired.  I usually never fall asleep reading.  ::Cups his face in his hands.::

CNS_Ens_Gail says:
All:  I've seen many religious sanctuaries in my time.  All of them are inspiring in some way. This one is no exception

CSO_T`Lena says:
CNS:  I see they rolled out the red carpet.

CNS_Ens_Gail says:
::Glances around.::  CSO:  Certainly not for us.

CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Looks around the chapel, trying to find out where they are to be seated.::

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  Only a select few were awarded invitations to attend the ceremony on the inside of the chapel, the Starfleet team being one of them.

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Looks around at all the people and straightens his white uniform to make a good impression.::

CSO_T`Lena says:
CO:  Do our invitations say where we are to sit?

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  On the entrance a few security guards look through the crowd, and inspect the invitations of everyone that tries to get inside.

CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Hands the guard their invitation.::  Guard:  Here you go.  Lovely place this is.

CIV_Turner says:
@::Looks over more of the ships specs and as usual still sees room for improvement.::  Self:  Especially the warp drive and engines.

Guard:
::Only nods, as he inspects the invitation with a hand scanner.::  ALL:  You may go through.  Foreign dignitaries are seated in the high balcony.  Please turn on the first left as you enter, and head up the stairs.  ::Opens the door to allow the Away team in.::

CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Nods.::  Guard:  Thank you.  ::Taps his shoulder, remembering the gesture, hoping he wasn't using it at the wrong time.::

CNS_Ens_Gail says:
::Nods to the guard and follows his instructions entering the chapel with the others.::

CIV_Turner says:
@::Stands and reads the PADD as he puts on a jacket.::

Guard:  
::Nods, returning the gesture, then turns his attention back to the crowds and the people trying to get in.::

CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Smiles as he heads into the smaller chapel, and turns left, looking at the stairs, and walks towards them::

CSO_T`Lena says:
CTO:  Well here we go.  ::Looks up the stairs that lead to the balcony.::

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Gestures the CSO to go first and lets out a little sigh.::  CSO:  I guess so.  After you.

CSO_T`Lena says:
::Smiles.::  CTO: Well thank you.  ::Heads for the stairs and whispers to the CTO.::  CTO: I'll race you to the top.  ::Grinning.::

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  The inside of the chapel is lightly lit, and the room smells of fresh flowers.

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  They line the aisle, and the benches on the ground floor.

CSO_T`Lena says:
CNS:  Kind of smells like roses in here.

CNS_Ens_Gail says:
::Follows, looking around.::

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::A big smile covers his face as he whispers back.::  CSO:  I would, but I'm sure I'll mess up my uniform.

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  At the end of the aisle, a small raised altar dominates the Chapel's back wall.

CIV_Turner says:
@::Heads to the TL on his way to the bridge.::

CNS_Ens_Gail says:
CO:  Good thing I brought my tricorder.  Some nice cultural details here to record.

CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Climbing the stairs, he looks around and down to the hall, seeing it filling up.::

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  At the balcony there are a few seats, most of which are already taken.

CSO_T`Lena says:
::Giggles.::  CTO:  Well maybe when we get back to the ship, we can go hit the holodeck or something.

CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Nods at the CNS.::  CNS:  Indeed... keep it running throughout the ceremony.  May get us some very good data on some of their rituals.

Host Buial_Kal says:
@ACTION:  As Turner enters the bridge, the on-duty crew acknowledges his presence with courteous nods.

CNS_Ens_Gail says:
CO:  Aye, aye.

CIV_Turner says:
@::Turner nods back at the crew and heads to a tactical/flight control panel.::

CIV_Turner says:
@::Removes the panel just below the console and scans with a tricorder.::

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  As the crew find their seats, they notice that not too many seats are still vacant.   They have a good view of the aisle and the altar at the end.

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  To the side of the altar, a chair sits.  On it, Buial Kal seems a very happy man.

CNS_Ens_Gail says:
::Takes a seat.::

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Gets a warm feeling rushing through his face and imagines his head would be quite red by now.::  CSO:  Perhaps we can do that sometime.  ::And checks his seat before sitting down.::

CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Goes over to some of the empty chairs, and looks around.::  All:  All right, take a seat.  ::Sits down himself.::  CNS:  Counselor?  I'd like you to stay close, so you can tell me some things as the ceremony progresses.  You're the counselor here, so you should know more about human things.

CSO_T`Lena says:
::Sits down between the CNS and CTO in an empty chair.::

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  The lights dim, the crowd's murmur dies to almost complete silence.

CNS_Ens_Gail says:
::Moves to the seat next to the Captain.::  CO:  Yes, Captain, cultural diversity is of particular interest to me.

SO says:  
@CIV:  Sir, could I get your opinion on something?

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  A spotlight shines from the top of the chapel, over the altar onto the entrance, right beneath the AT's location.

CNS_Ens_Gail says:
CO:  I suppose we are about to begin.  Though there are plenty of empty seats still.

CIV_Turner says:
@::Finishes up a scan and turns around hearing the SO.::  SO:  Sure, what is it?  ::Quizzically.::

CNS_Ens_Gail says:
CO: I wonder if they have a meaning.  Perhaps people of importance who died?  So their seats are left vacant.  That happens in some cultures.

SO says:
CIV:  Well, there's a ship moving strangely; in and out of orbit.  I've been picking up chatter from the planet space control, and they seems to be having some kind of emergency.  Plus, the lunar generator, the one we had pegged when we arrived?  It's showing signs of increased activity.

CSO_T`Lena says:
CTO:  So, you like weddings?

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  The chapel fills with the sound of cheerful music.  

CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Nods and whispers.::  CNS:  Possibly, let's see what it is that will happen.

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  The spotlight follows a couple down the aisle, heading for the altar, slowly.

CNS_Ens_Gail says:
::Speaks more to herself.::  CO:  The happy couple.

CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Nods.::  CNS:  I'd assume so.

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  As they walk, the bride and groom collect one flower from each of the benched rows.  Each from his side.

CIV_Turner says:
@SO:  Maybe we should contact the control center on the planet and see if they know anything.

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Looks to his side.::  CSO:  Well, to be honest, I do.  This will be my first with non-Starfleet officers to be wed.

SO says:
@CIV:  Well, they seem to have everything under control.  They're sending a ship to help out.  ::Shrugs.::

CIV_Turner says:
@SO:  We should hail that ship entering and exiting orbit and see if they require assistance also.

CSO_T`Lena says:
::Whispers.::  CTO:  They look like a happy couple.  I love the music.  It's so calming.

CIV_Turner says:
@SO:  Going in and out of orbit like that can't be good for even the toughest of ships.

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  The music shows a crescendo, as the couple reach the altar.  There they turn right, each with a reasonable sized bouquet in their hands, heading for a side statue.

CNS_Ens_Gail says:
CO:  Perhaps the local God?

CIV_Turner says:
@SO:  Is the generator activity showing simple increased activity or does there seem to be signs of stress on it?

SO says:
@CIV:  I'm more worried about the generator, Sir.  The moon station is supposed to be abandoned.

CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Looks at the proceedings, intrigued.::  CNS:  Could be anything, a distant ancestor or something?

SO says:
@CIV:  No, no stress, Sir.  Yet, it's like it's warming up to something.

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Takes a little time to listen to the music and quickly finds himself lost in the beautiful 
Sounds.::  CSO:  Indeed it is.  ::Pauses.::  Indeed it is.

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  The couple reach the statue, and deposit the flowers on the ground.

CNS_Ens_Gail says:
::Nods.::  CO:  Or a deity, or both.

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  In unison, the entire church speaks "For those who will never be forgotten."

CIV_Turner says:
@SO:  We should contact the surface and let them know and ask them for advice.  They would know its systems better than anyone, and if there is some activity if any to be scheduled that maybe we aren't aware of.

CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
CNS:  My bet is on the ancestors.  ::Smiles.::

CSO_T`Lena says:
CNS:  Should we be repeating what they are saying?

CNS_Ens_Gail says:
CSO:  I am not sure, I think that if they wanted us to say the same things they would have given us some sort of guide

CSO_T`Lena says:
CNS:  Aye, that is true.

SO says:
@CIV:  I will do that, Sir.

CNS_Ens_Gail says:
CO:  Or perhaps the dead by the oppressor regime.

CNS_Ens_Gail says:
CO:  Again represented in the empty chairs
 
CIV_Turner says:
@SO:  I'm going to run some scans and see if I can find anything further from here.

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  The couple return to the altar, where Buial Kal now stands, having left his chair and taken his place on the other side of the altar.

CIV says:
@::Contacts the local authorities.  Nods at the SO.::

CNS_Ens_Gail says:
CO:  I wasn't expecting the Buial to be both political and religious leader.  That is not common in post revolution governments.

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  The couple kneels down in front of the altar,

Host Buial_Kal says:
::Clears his throat slightly.::

Host Buial_Kal says:
::He speaks with a slightly raised voice.::  All:  My friends!  We are here.

CNS_Ens_Gail says:
::Listens to the Buial.::

Host Buial_Kal says:
All:  Even after all we have been through, we are here.

CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Listens to the speech.::

Host Buial_Kal says:
::He smiles.::  All:  This is one of the greatest pleasures my office has to offer.  The presiding of the union of two souls, destined for each other.

CIV_Turner says:
@::Performing scans of the lunar base.::  SO: You can inform the surface that output from the generator is building steadily and several other systems on the lunar base are coming online.

CSO_T`Lena says:
::Turns her attention to the speech, and listens intently.::

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Sits up straight to listen to the speech and watches the couple carefully.::

SO says:
@CIV:  Sir, the local authorities have no idea what is going on at the moon base.  There was no scheduled activation of the moon base.  One of their ships is moving to investigate.

CIV_Turner says:
@SO:  Do they need any assistance from us?

Host Buial_Kal says:
All:  And even more special, as it is my own flesh and blood that today stands before you, ready to pledge herself to another.

SO says:
@::Shrugs.::  CIV:  They have thanked us for informing them.  But have not requested any assistance.  

CIV_Turner says:
@SO:  Well without a request for assistance we really can't do anything I guess.  Plus the captain would have to grant permission for us to break orbit.

SO says:
@CIV:  Sir, this is getting weird.  I'm picking up a strange energy coming from the dilithium mountains.

CSO_T`Lena says:
::Leans from her seat trying to look out of the balcony, and trying to get a good picture of what is happening.::

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  The bride and groom stand.

CIV_Turner says:
@::Frowns.::  SO:  Well I will continue to monitor their progress just in case.

Host Buial_Kal says:
All:  In the time honored traditions of our ancestors, the bride and groom will now sing their vows.

SO says:
@CIV:  Sir, you think we should inform the captain?

Host Buial_Kal says:
::The Buial sits down on the chair behind the altar, and waits.::

CIV_Turner says:
@SO:  I hate to disturb him but maybe we should.  You never know how these things can take a turn for the worst sometimes.

CNS_Ens_Gail says:
::Sits back.::  CO:  Hope they are good singers.

CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Smiles.::  CNS:  I hear you.

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  A soft music starts, as the couple turn to look at each other.  Both start singing at the same time, in unison, in old Delanan.

CIV_Turner says:
@SO:  We should inform the surface about the dilithium mountains too.

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Slides a little more to the tip of the chair as the bride and groom start to sing their vows.  He tries to listen to it intently.::

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  The moon generator's power output spikes.  The mountain energy reading spikes.  The erratic ships makes a dash for the surface, heading straight for the chapel.

CIV_Turner says:
@COMM: CO:  Turner to Jackson.

SO says:
@CIV:  Sir, we have energy spikes from both locations.

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  In the chapel, the lights go out and all is dark.

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  The couple stops singing, and the crowd starts issuing small screams of surprise.

CIV_Turner says:
@SO:  I'm informing the captain now.

CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Looks up as the combadge chirps.::   *CIV*:  Jackson here.  ::Looks around as it goes dark.::  All:  Get down.

CSO_T`Lena says:
CTO:  Okay, this is not good.

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  The Artemis picks up an explosion on the power station nearest to the Chapel.  A good part of the city around it is without light.

CNS_Ens_Gail says:
::Looks down at her tricorder as she hears the explosion.::

CSO_T`Lena says:
Self:  I knew I should have brought that phaser!

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  The ship reaches it's location right above the chapel, pursued by five different Delanan security ships.

CIV_Turner says:
@*CO*:  Sorry to disturb you captain but we have some very unusual activity coming from the lunar base that is supposed to be inactive.

CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
*CIV*:  Lock on to as many people as you can here and beam out.  We are under attack, or something else has gone wrong here.

Host Buial_Kal says:
All:  Everyone, please calm down.  I'm sure this is just a problem with the power source. We'll be back in emergency lighting in no time.

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Blinks his eyes a few times.::  CSO:  Not good?  This is bad, very bad.

CNS_Ens_Gail says:
CO:  There was a massive explosion in the city's power plant and there is a ship almost upon us.  Five others are pursuing.

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  Three transporter signals are detected by the Artemis:  One from the lunar base, one from the mountain location, and one from the ship now hovering over the chapel.

CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Turns to the little team.::  All:  All right, let's head down, show our presence.  *CIV*:  Do not lock on to our own signals.  We're staying to help.

CIV_Turner says:
@::Takes control of the transporters remotely and locks on to as many as he can but leaving the crew behind.::

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  In the dark, two blue lights shine and illuminate the chapel for a few seconds, exactly where the grooms were.  Then, the light is gone.

CIV_Turner says:
@::Initiates transport.::

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Gets up, nearly knocking over his seat.::  CO:  Aye Captain, what did you have in mind?

CSO_T`Lena says:
CO:  Captain, I would recommend beaming out the Buial and the wedding couple.::

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  The emergency lights come on.

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  The ship darts from the chapel up into space.  The Delanan ships are trying to tractor the ship in.

CO_Cmdr_Jackson says: 
::Heads for the stairs.::  CTO:  Stand by to intervene.  ::Continues to the stairs,::  All:  Everyone, please stay ..  ::Sees lights coming back, and slightly lowers his voice.:: .. calm.

CNS_Ens_Gail says:
::Scans in the direction of the lights.::

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  The bride and groom are nowhere to be seen.

Host Buial_Kal says:
::Looks around.::  All:  Where, what happened?  ::Screams.::  GUARDS!!!

CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Runs to the stairs now, and down them, skipping two stairs for every step.::

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Ducks slightly and tries to stay as calm and quiet as he can.::

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  Guards storm into the room.

CSO_T`Lena says:
CTO:  I guess we should go help out down there.

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Nods in agreement, not sure it was visible enough and replies with a little shivering voice.:: CSO:  Er, okay.  Pardon me for saying so, but you may lead the way.
CNS_Ens_Gail says:
::Follows the Captain, more slowly, scanning for anything out of where it supposed to be.::

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  The ships turns to evade its pursuers, and its trajectory seems to head straight for the Artemis.

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  The Power signatures in both the Moon station and the mountains fade.

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  Several guests disappear from the Chapel, and the rest of the guests start screaming and looking for the exits.

SO says:
@CIV:  Sir, that ship.  It's heading in our general direction.

CSO_T`Lena says:
::Heads down the steps to where the CO is.::  CO: Captain, what would you like me to do?

CIV_Turner says:
@*CO*: I have several of the guests, Captain.

CNS_Ens_Gail says:
::Moves through the crowd towards the Buial's position.::

CIV_Turner says:
@SO:  Have we hailed them?

CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Looks around.::  All:  All, please, stay calm!  ::Runs up to the Buial.::  Buial:  Buial Kal! Are you all right?

Host Buial_Kal says:
::Gets out from behind the altar, and starts speaking with the guards who are now surrounding him.

CIV_Turner says:
@*CO*:  We have a ship on an intercept course also, Captain.

SO says:
@CIV:  No, Sir, but I'm getting a broadcast from the local authorities.  They're asking for help in apprehending that ship.

CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
*CIV*:  Understood, we had another beam-out, the happy couple.  Any idea where they might be?

Host Buial_Kal says:
::Watches as the CO comes towards him.::  CO:  Captain, my daughter, her fiance .. They are gone.

CIV_Turner says:
@SO:  We have to get the captain's permission.

SO says:
@CIV:  Well then, get it.  They'll be in tractor range in about 20 seconds.

CSO_T`Lena says:
CTO:  Do you think his daughter was beamed aboard the Artemis?

CIV_Turner says:
@*CO*:  I don't know, Captain, but we, the local authorities, are requesting our assistance in apprehending the ship headed our way.  I can only guess but maybe they are on that ship.

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  The ship continues evading its small pursuers, as other Delanan capital ships approach from the far side of the planet, converging on the Artemis' location.

CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Nods.::  Buial:  Yes, we're trying to get that cleared too.  ::Stops.::  
*CIV*:  Do it, Mister Turner.  These are our friends, and we have to help them.  Scan the ship the first chance you have, and scan her deep.  Hit her with all we have, sensor wise.

CIV_Turner says:
@*CO*:  They will be within tractor range in 20 seconds.  I kind of need an answer now, Captain.

CNS_Ens_Gail says:
::Reaches the CO and Buial's location.::

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  On the Artemis Transporter pads, a lot of guests show surprise and indignation for having been beamed up without their permission.

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Looks around him.::  CSO:  I must have missed that.  Let us just hope so.

CIV_Turner says:
@SO:  Tractor beam approved on the captains orders.  Ready on your mark.

SO says:
@::Nods.::  CIV:  Locking sensors on target.

CSO_T`Lena says:
::Hopes that the Buial's daughter is safe, but from the sounds of the crowd it appears there is a lot of confusion and anger.::

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  The ship, understanding the Artemis' intentions, starts veering off, but is forced onto the same course by the other ships pursuing it.

CIV_Turner says:
@*CO*:  Sorry, Captain.  I misunderstood.  Are we approved to engage a tractor to apprehend the ship?

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  The chapel doors open, and people start running, almost stampeding out.

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Tries to make his way through the crowd, making sure he doesn't loose sight of the others of the crew.::  CSO:  Where are they headed?

CIV_Turner says:
@SO:  Belaying the tractor approval but initiating a full sensor scan.

CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
*CIV*:  You have free reign, Mister Turner.  Everything but weapon systems.  ::Turns to the Buial again.::  Buial:  We may have the people who did this, almost in custody.  We're doing our best.

CNS_Ens_Gail says:
CO/Buial:  The transporter signature that took them is Delanan.  Who might want them?

CSO_T`Lena says:
::Gets out of the way as the crowd starts to come towards her, almost knocking her over.  Grabs the CTO's shoulder and she nearly falls to the ground with the CTO.::

Host Buial_Kal says:
::Almost shouts.::  All:  Whoever did this will pay!  ,, With their lives.  ::Sounds desperate, as a few advisors reach the Buial trying to calm him down.::

CSO_T`Lena says:
ALL:  Whoa!   Who let the gate open!

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  The ship enters tractor range of the Artemis.

CIV_Turner says:
@::Engages tractor beam and locks onto the unknown ship.::

SO says:
@CIV:  Sir, our scans of that ship .. show that there are no life signs aboard.

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  The fleeing ships grounds to a halt, engines screaming with power trying to escape, but to no effect.

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Holds the CSO to prevent her from falling.::  CSO:  Careful now.  Let's get to the sides of the crowd.  ::And tries to make his way through the crowd again, holding the CSO right behind him.::

CIV_Turner says:
@SO:  Leave that tractor beam locked on.  We might need to do a visual inspection.

SO says:
@::Nods.::  CIV:  They're not going anywhere.

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  The pursuing Delana ships take up offensive positions surrounding the fleeing ship.

CSO_T`Lena says:
CTO:  Wonder where they think they're going?

CIV_Turner says:
@*CO*:  I have the unknown ship in a tractor beam but I am showing no life signs aboard.  Either they are being remotely piloted or .. well I hate to think the other option.  Permission to send over a security team as a boarding party.

CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
*CIV*:  Talk with the authorities, request permission to form a boarding party and search the ship.

CIV_Turner says:
@*CO*:  Will do, Captain.  Turner out.

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
CSO:  So do I.  But one thing I do know.  They don't stop for anything in their path.  ::Holds off another one of the screaming guests as he is still trying to make his way to the side of the crowd.::

CSO_T`Lena says:
::Moves behind the CTO as the fleeing guest makes her way past them.::

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  The guards and the advisors take the Buial away to a more safe place.

CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Sees the guards take the Buial away.::  All:  Guess we better go back to the ship.  
Prepare for transport.

CIV_Turner says:
@COM: Planet Space Control:  Control, this is the USS Artemis.  We have that ship that you requested our assistance with.  No life signs are aboard.  Requesting permission to assemble a boarding party.

CSO_T`Lena says:
CTO:  Well the good news is it's not as crowded in here anymore.

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Smiles faintly after reaching the side of the now less dense crowd.::  CSO:  That's right.  Do you see the captain or the counselor anywhere?  ::Tries to stand tall and look above the remaining guests.::

CSO_T`Lena says:
CTO:  Aye, he's standing at the head of the chapel.   ::Points.::  He wants us to prepare to head back to the ship, if I heard him correctly.

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Nods as he sees the captain now too.::  CSO:  Okay, let's get ready then, shall we?

CSO_T`Lena says:
CTO:  Aye.  ::Walks with the CTO to where the captain is.::

Delanan Control says: 
@COM: Artemis:  Negative Artemis.  You are to hold position and the lock on that rogue ship.  The Gatlehag Narval is moving in to investigate the ship, and seize it.

CIV_Turner says:
@COM: Delanan Control:  Ten-four, standing by.

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  One of the capital Delanan ships is increasing speed to reach the Artemis' position.

CSO_T`Lena says:
::Hears the CO's words and prepares for beam-up.::

CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
All:  All right, here we go.  
*CIV*:  Jackson to USS Artemis, 4 to beam out.

CIV_Turner says:
@*CO*:  Ready to engage transporters on your orders, Captain.

CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
*CIV*:  Energize.

CIV_Turner says:
@*CO*:  Locking on .. now, Captain.  ::Engages transporters.::

Host Buial_Kal says:
ACTION:  The Away Team disappears into thin air, and re-appears on the Artemis' transporter pad.

CSO_T`Lena says:
::Feels herself rematerialize on the Artemis and checks to make sure she is all in one piece.::

CIV_Turner says:
::Stands to go meet the CO and the rest of his party.::  SO:  I'm going to check on the captain and our guests.

CO_Cmdr_Jackson says:
::Appearing on the Artemis, he immediately heads out, managing to turn just inside the door opening.::  
All:  All right, return to your posts, everyone.  ::Heads for the nearest TL::
