Brett:
 Summary: The crew has been imprisoned by the Legion rebels who appear to be in league with the Romulans, in a bid to bring the planet of Psellus III back under Romulan control.  With time dwindling, the crew needs to find a way to stop the Romulan fleet before it arrives, in order to prevent possible war with the Federation.

 <<<<Resume Mission "Armistice - Part 12">>>>

CTO_Marshall:
 ::looks around the room and turns his head up at the XO::

CTO_Marshall:
 XO: What do we do now sir?

CMO_P`Trell:
 ::in the cell, looks to the XO, then the Taigu and west::

XO_Mash`ev:
 XO: :: standing, looking out the little window on the door. ::

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 #::checks to make sure the distruptor and phaser is set to stun::

Brett:
 <West> All: We need to think of something quick.  Could we fake an illness and get the guards over here?

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 #::checks his tricorder one more time then makes sure it secured::

XO_Mash`ev:
 CTO: We plot a way to get out of here without getting killed. Ideas?

CTO_Marshall:
 West: I don't know if they would believe that.

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 #::consults his tricoder and thinks of the best way to act as he strains his hearing to see if he can pick up any additional clues::

OPS_Knight:
 ::slouched against a distant wall:: XO: Anyone have some bubblegun wrapping and a toothpick?

XO_Mash`ev:
 West: As I see it, we're lucky to be alive. I doubt that such a tactic would fool them.

CMO_P`Trell:
 West: I am not sure that will do the trick.. Romuans are notorious for their non-caring

Brett:
 <West> XO/CMO: Well, I am open to suggestion...

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 #::judges that the Psellians are close to the door and that seem very happy, jake decided he have to take them down::

CMO_P`Trell:
 Guards: Hey, how long are we to be kept here?

XO_Mash`ev:
 All: Let's make sure we're ready to move. We may only get one chance to do anything.

CTO_Marshall:
 ::Stands off to the side::

Brett:
 <Psellian> CMO: Until we're liberated!  ::Laughes and clinks mugs with his buddy::  Then we'll give you to the Romulans, I am sure you'll enjoy life in the Empire

CTO_Marshall:
 Psellian: Rather be a prisoner than a slave.

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 #::decides that the time is right, he forces his fur to stand up making him self look like a beserk cat, and takes a deep breath::

XO_Mash`ev:
 CMO: ::whispers:: You do know the life expectancy of a Romulan prisoner, don't you?

OPS_Knight:
 ::gets to his feet and staggers over near the exit:: Gaurds: Liberated.  Don't they make a anolgesic cream for that?

CMO_P`Trell:
 ::nods at the XO's whisper::

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 ::charges into the room roaring like an angery beast as he scans for his tragets, seeing the first two he opens fire one shoot with the phaser and one with the distruptor::

CMO_P`Trell:
 Guards: Have you experienced life in the empire? ::asks sincerely::

Brett:
 <Psellian> CMO/CTO: No, but we... Argh!

Brett:
 Action: The CEO's attack catches the guards by surprise, both fall as he charges into the corridor.

Brett:
 Action: The Romulans jump to their feet and bring their weapons to bear

XO_Mash`ev:
 :: Pulls crew away from the door. ::

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 ::those not wait to see if his tragets fall he stays in moition and moves for the second set of tragets, diving towards the floor as he fires::

CMO_P`Trell:
 ::hears the weapons fire, whispers:: Self: Jakuharrr? ::looks hopeful::

Brett:
 Action: The CEO downs one gaurd, his other shot missing.  The Romulan's counter fire passes above his head as he dives tot he floor, sliding toward them.

Brett:
 <Romulan> ::Adjusts his aim at the cat and grins as he aims between the CEO's eyes::

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 ::points both wepaons at the last traget and fires again::

Brett:
 Action: The Romulan is blasted back into the door, his weapon discharging into the floor behind the CEO.  The guard slumps to the ground.

XO_Mash`ev:
 All: Everyone get ready.

CMO_P`Trell:
 ::get ready to do whatever is called for::

OPS_Knight:
 ::watches all the action, growing more alert by the minute and less cynical::

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 ::scans to room for any other tragets, as he stands up, wearing only a fur, and a strap across his waist and emergency back strung over his back...basicly a nake Caitain::

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 ::spots the CTO and hands him the romulan distruptor, then he searchs the bodies for keys to the cells::

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 ::finds a set of keys on one of the Psellians, he grabs the keys and also any weapons he finds then goes to try the keys on the nearst cells::All: Caitianvilry has arrived.

Brett:
 <West> ::Looks astonished::

CMO_P`Trell:
 ::watches the black furred man enter the room, for a moment her eyes grow wide with fear then realizes this is not a prodigal and says:: CEO: Commander!

XO_Mash`ev:
 CEO: You're a sight for... ::notices a lack of clothing, not sure how to react::

OPS_Knight:
 CEO: Couldn't go a single mission without stripping?  ::he jokes::

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 ::growls at the ops officer::

CTO_Marshall:
 CEO: While your out maybe you can find some pants ::coughs::

Brett:
 Action: The sound of running feet is heard from outside the opposite door from the CEO's entry.  It sounds like four or more people approaching.  The sound of keys in the lock, is ominous in the cell corridor.

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 All: We do not have time to trade barbs, we got company coming, we need to get out her yesterday!

XO_Mash`ev:
 CEO: ::recovers:: We're really glad to see you.

CMO_P`Trell:
 ::looks around:: Which way?

Brett:
 <West> All: This is some rescue.  ::Smirks::

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 ::continues to open cells doors leaving west for last::XO: I manage to send out a distress call before the grant was hit, at least i think i was able to

CMO_P`Trell:
 ::gets out of the cell at the very least::

Brett:
 Action: The door swings open, revealing a female Psellian, flanked by several others.

XO_Mash`ev:
 :: steps into hallway, looking at the open door ::

OPS_Knight:
 ::looks to the rest of the crew and nods appreciatively when his cell opens.:: CEO: Glad you could join us.

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 ::is about to hand out the weapon he had picked up from the guards when he spots the inturders::

CMO_P`Trell:
 Selesia: Will you help us?

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 ::aims his phaser at the intruders and has his fingure right above the fire button::

CMO_P`Trell:
 CEO: Wait!

OPS_Knight:
 ::recognizes the woman from the clinic.::

Selesia_Ssree:
 ::Slips around the corner with remarkable agility, then pauses, taking in the absense of "awake" guards and the freedom of the Federation people::

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 ::hand hovers over the fire button, but he those not pull the trigger::

CMO_P`Trell:
 CEO: This is one of the people from the clinic in the lowlands...

Selesia_Ssree:
 ::Identifies the CMO, OPS, and XO:: CMO: Apparently,  ::lowers her own weapon:: you are skilled fighters as well as skilled diplomats.

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 ::Wonders if these people have ties to the ones that help him::

XO_Mash`ev:
 Selesia: Only when we must be.

Selesia_Ssree:
 ::Keeps a wary eye on the CEO, the naked guy still pointing a weapon at her:: XO/CMO: I don't know everything, but you people are good, and I sure don't want the Romulans back here.

CMO_P`Trell:
 Selesia: We have got to stop the Romulan fleet from coming here... the Taigu sent out a message against his will

OPS_Knight:
 ::searches the gaurd for any romulan DataPADDs.::

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 ::lowers his weapons and pass out the weapons he "apporiated from the guards to other crew members, keeping the phaser to him self::

CMO_P`Trell:
 CEO: Please... lower your weapon... they are here to help

Brett:
 <Taigu> Selesia: I know you....from the lowlands villages, you work in the clinic there.  Why are you here?

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 All: if you excuse me i get dress ::ducks around the corner and digs out what left of his uniform and dress::

XO_Mash`ev:
 :: Accepts a disruptor, all too familiar with how to use one. ::

Selesia_Ssree:
 Taigu:  I don't know whether joining the Federation is what we Psellians must do - but the Romulans have shown  us their true colors.

Selesia_Ssree:
 Taigu/XO/CMO: I and my best people, ::Gestures to four other people at the entrance to the corridor:: are at your disposal. How can we stop the Romulans?

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 ::returns dress with tricoder out::all: We got one emergecy kit, starfleet may or may not know that the grant was fired on, and we got at least one large Romulan Warbird in orbit

Brett:
 <Taigu> Selesia: ::Nods::  It is good to see you.  Thank you for helping me, you will not regret it.

Selesia_Ssree:
 ::Looks somewhat unconvinced at the Taigu, but pushes it away::  XO: The Romulans and the Legion are staked out in the palace this way.

XO_Mash`ev:
 CEO: Did you see any of their operations here? Could we get in and get a message out?

CMO_P`Trell:
 ::looks at the Taigu:: Taigu: Can you send another message retracting your statement and setting things to rights?

CMO_P`Trell:
 XO: Do you think that would do it? Would that be enough?

XO_Mash`ev:
 Selesia: Do you know how many there are?

CMO_P`Trell:
 ::happly accepts the disruptor::

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 XO: Sir i am not sure, i know the grant is useless, what was not damaged in the romulan attack or my crash landing, I destoryed myself before leaving.  the core is totally fried.  I do have an emergency beacon but I am not sure if it has the range, ops might know.

Brett:
 <Taigu> ::Looks concerned::  CMO: I fear it will not work.  But perhaps Tovik can.  If you could persuade him to send a recall order...

XO_Mash`ev:
 CMO: I don't know. I don't know what StarFleet knows about what's going on. I suspect that they thought this would be a simple, diplomatic matter. ::glances at West::

CMO_P`Trell:
 CEO: If the Taigu sent out a general distress... ::pauses:: Taigu: Tovik? That's the Romulan/Psellan?

Brett:
 <Taigu> CMO: Yes.

CMO_P`Trell:
 ::looks at him incrediously:: Taigu: What makes you think we can convince him? You said yourself he seemed like a mad man

Ruissi_Bwevoss:
 XO: Our intelligence reports at least six Romulans, maybe more....and the who knows how many of the half of the Psellian population now supporting the new rule.

XO_Mash`ev:
 Selesia: Please get your people ready to lead the way. I don't want to see any of you injured, though.

Brett:
 <Taigu> CMO: ::Shrugs and looks somewhat helpless::  I...I was only thinking...

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 CMO: yes but I also send a message stating a romulan warbird was in orbit, but i am not sure if they recive the message as the grant was attack a few seconds later

CMO_P`Trell:
 ::thinks a moment on Ruissi and wonders if she could be or would be willing to help::

OPS_Knight:
 ::looks to the CEO at the mention of his name and shrugs:: CEO: Unless we can find a high altitude free of the electro magnetism generated by the planet's atmosphere.  I doubt it.

Selesia_Ssree:
 XO: This battle is for our world - it is our responsibility.  You are the ones who should be careful.

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 ops: that what i thought, what vessel those starfleet have in this area?

CMO_P`Trell:
 Taigu/Selesia: Do you think Ruissi would help us? Try to convince him, I mean?

XO_Mash`ev:
 Selesia: I just want you to have the chance to see what life is like as a Federation member.

OPS_Knight:
 CEO: We're all there is, last I heard.    This Treaty wasn't supposed to require much of a Federation Presince.

Brett:
 <Taigu> CMO: I do not know, she seems to love him.

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 OPS: I am not talking about in orbit or in the system. what vessel or any are within in a days travel to the system?

CMO_P`Trell:
 Taigu: Where would we find her?

Selesia_Ssree:
 CMO: ...Perhaps, if we could reach her. She may love him, but I believe her love for her people is greater. If she could see the destructiveness and deception of the Romulans...

Selesia_Ssree:
 ::Shrugs:: CMO: There might be a chance.

CMO_P`Trell:
 Selesia: You yourself said the Romulans have shown their true colors... perhaps there is

Brett:
 <Taigu> CMO: She is with Tovik, in my palace.  ::Said with some venom::

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 all: I Hate to be a wet blanket but i strongly suggest we move this discussion else were, before any one release there a jail break.  Other wise you be recapture and i be captured

XO_Mash`ev:
 Taigu: Is there a secret way into the palace that the Romulans might not know about?

XO_Mash`ev:
 CEO: Let's move the guards into the cells, at least, while we discuss our next move.

Brett:
 <Taigu> XO: Possibly...

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 ::nods::CTO, OPS: give me hand

OPS_Knight:
 CEO: The USS Himori would probably be the closest. But I'd say she's afew hours away only if she uses Maximum Warp.   The Gladius was heading to Gorn space, though I don't know how far she is now.

CMO_P`Trell:
 ::nods and starts moving guards::

XO_Mash`ev:
 Taigu: Can you find it from the outside? Is it far?

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 ::holsters his phaser and drags a guard into a cell using the restrians he found on one of the guards to secure his hands::

Selesia_Ssree:
 XO: Commander...

OPS_Knight:
 ::assists the CEO with the gaurds::

XO_Mash`ev:
 Selesia: Yes?

Brett:
 <Taigu> XO: ::Thinks hard, then nods::  Yes, yes I think I could.

CMO_P`Trell:
 XO/Taigu: Great let's go! ::drags another unconscious guard into the cell::

Brett:
 INFO: During the moving of the guards, it is found that the last Romulan was killed by the double stun blast delivered at close range by the CEO.

Selesia_Ssree:
 XO: My group can lead in, take out any initial sentries, and distract the guards...It is the least we can do. You, your people have demonstrated to me the true desire and purpose of the Federation - helping others. If we are to ever join the Federation, we must be worthy of that position.

CMO_P`Trell:
 ::blue face pales upon discovery:: All: Oh no... ::looks up:: XO: He's dead, Mash'ev.

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 ::discover the last guy he shot was dead as he searchs the dead body of intel::

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 CTO: Check the other romulan for intel

CEO_Jakuharrr:
 XO:sir, bad news, this romulan is dead

XO_Mash`ev:
 Selesia: Thank you. I appreciate that. We'll do our best to get the message out.

XO_Mash`ev:
 CMO/CEO: That's too bad. Put him in a separate cell.

Brett:
 <<<<Pause>>>>

Brett:
 O.k.  Here's what happens, Selesia and her people lead you out of the prison, it seesm they took care of the light guard force in the outer area.

Brett:
 The streets are very quiet late at night, as it appears the Legion have enforced a kind of martial law.

Brett:
 Selesia takes you to the rear of the palace, where the Taigu directs you all to a small drain pipe through the outer wall, hidden by ivy and a hedge.

Brett:
 Selessia and her people plan to start a ruckus inthe street in front of the palace to direct the guard's attention away from you all.

Brett:
 And that is where we will begin, next week.
