@::sits at a science station on the bridge of the Darnell trying to configure the tricorders to detect the anomalies::

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@<Crewman Smyth>::Continues to keep watch, wishes the CEO didn't look quite so comfy as the guard shifts from foot to foot a few times.::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@OPS: Anything Mia?

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@::Stops pacing long enough to listen to Mia's reply.::

@::holds up a finger for Cassie to wait while she listens to a section of the video:: FCO: I hear a faint hissing.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
<Rien>CO: No change sir. ::looks down::

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
<Ensign McCann>::Is still running tactical scans, he catches the Captain’s eye when he looks over and shakes his head and returns to maintaining the alert.::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@OPS: That's it? A faint hissing?

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
FCO_Rien:  Very well...  keep working.  ::slowly heads to the lower deck::

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
#::the butterfly's wings open out and close slowly, then it flies off in a leisurely pattern::

Host Tim says:
ACTION: A FAINT HISS IS HEAR BY KELL

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
@::irritably wonders what the FCO wanted her to hear....a complete list of instructions on how to get them back?:: FCO: I've only started analyzing the audio.  Let me see if I can isolate it.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
*Engineering*:  Bridge to Engineering... how long until transporters are back online?

Host Tim says:
<Engineering Chief>*CO*: About ten minutes sir.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
*Engineering*:  Report as soon as it is done.

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
@*CTO*: Lieutenant.  Although not my forte I have analyzed the data you requested.  I have learned that all readings concerning this vessel are normal.

Host Tim says:
ACTION: KELL DISAPPEARS FROM THE DARNELL

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
#::reluctantly decides to get up and starts walking toward what she thinks may be a brook::  To the air:  I know you know I'm here.  This is much better than the dark...but I still want to know where I am and where my crew is...  ::continues to walk through the long grass::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@::pats Mia's shoulder:: OPS: Sorry Mia, it's just this place is making me a bit antsy.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@*CEO*: Not the best of news but thank you Engineering.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::drums his fingers on the console again::

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@All on bridge: The CEO couldn't find a thing wrong with this vessel, not a one.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@OPS: You're doing great Mia, can you tell if the hissing is biological in nature or sentient made?

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
@::shrugs at Cassie and shakes her head at the CTO:: CTO: Not right now.

Host Tim says:
<Engineering Chief>*CO*: Aye sir. Self: Did he think I'd keep it a secret?

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@::looks over at Paige:: CTO: Have you been able to come up with any ideas what happened to Tessa?

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@::Sends info to the Dublin in the hopes that they can figure out the hissing.::

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
#:: the engineering section disappears.  The Cardassian engineer is standing in an all white are, nothing to see and no sound:: Himself: Perhaps my analysis was a bit premature.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::twists his mouth as he awaits for the Away Team's report::

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
#::looks up and stops, putting her hands on her hips::  To the air:  And what did you do with that little girl?  You may think I like it here, but I want to go back to my ship.  ::sighs and then continues walking::

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@FCO: She was taken somewhere by this alien like energy wave. Beyond that...

Host Tim says:
#ACTION: AS THOUGH IN RESPONSE TO THE XO THE SKY DIMS

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@CTO: Any theories forming yet then?

CMO_Ens_Rez says:
@FCO: My tricorder just picked up a anomaly in the engineering section.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::raises an eyebrow::  OPS_Moondoggie:  Is there any report of missing person onboard?

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
#::stops suddenly as the scenery blinked in and out.  Surveys the area again::

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@<Crewman Smyth>::There was an odd noise and the guard leapt into action, his fingers closed around empty air as he felt an energy in the air.::

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
@::her brow furrows as she mutters to herself:: Self: I know this sound...where do I know it from......::snaps her fingers:: that's it...::boosts the gain to amplify it and separate any background ambient noises::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@:;moves closer to Mia:: OPS: May I listen a moment?

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
#:: begins walking around his new environment :: Aloud : Nice area someone will probably conquer a colony here one day  :: continues walking ::

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@<Crewman Smyth>*CTO*: Ma’am the engineer just disappeared, I nearly got him could almost feel his jacket but then he was gone and there was an after energy in the air. ::He sounded a bit panicked.::

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
<Moondoggie> ::shakes his head emphatically:: CO: No way, sir.  I've been running scans continuously.  Doesn't look good when people disappear on your watch.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::releases his breath at the Duty OPS's answer::  OPS_Moondoggie:  Very well...  any reports from the Away Team, yet?

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
#:: starts to feel a little worried about what she said and speaks in less of an aggravated tone::  To the air:  Why don't you talk to me?  Quit playing these head games?  If I knew what you wanted...

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@::Curses long and hard in an unknown language:: *Smyth*: Scan the area and get your butt to the bridge, immediately.

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
@FCO: Hold on...I've almost got it.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@::hears Paige:: CTO: What's happening?

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@FCO: We just lost Kell, anyone of us might be next...but here's the odd bit, the guard was left alone.

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
<Moondoggie> CO: Just what you've got so far.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@FCO: He's scanning the area and will report back here flank.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@CTO: Contact the Dublin and inform the Captain immediately!

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@::She doesn't bother to reply instead hits her commbadge.::

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
@::absorbed in listening and not paying attention to anything else happening on the bridge::

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
#To the air:  If you can do this...then I'm sure you can communicate with ....  ::lets her sentence drop as she barely senses...another::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::looks at the Darnell on the view screen::

Host Tim says:
#ACTION: THE SCENE CHANGES FOR ENSIGN KELL; A DISTORTED REPLICATION FROM HIS YOUTH

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@*CO*: Sir, we lost Kell, the guard grabbing fabric then he was gone, he's scanned the area and is reporting to the bridge.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@<Crewman Smyth>::scans the energy in the area and runs to the bridge, very worried he may be next.::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@CTO: Paige, when the guard gets here, find out if anything unusual happened just before Kell disappeared.

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
# Another:  ~~~Then speak to me this way if you have to.  Please at least tell me you have not harmed my friends?~~~

CMO_Ens_Rez says:
@::keeps at the tricorder hoping with the anomaly he just picked up he can make some head way::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::listens to the report and slightly punches the console::  Self:  I can't believe that...

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@FCO: Yes Ma’am. ::Her jaw clenched, she is furious at the situation.::

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
#:: with a flash the scene changes for the CEO.  Becoming a distorted representation of his early days at the military academy on Koll II::  Aloud : Very thoughtful of you to take me back to my youth, I would have preferred it be during leave.  :: walks around the academy watching the cadets ::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@::walks around the Darnell's bridge looking over the various consoles::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
*FCO*:  Cassie, gather the Away Team and prepare to return to the Dublin... I can't afford to lose more valuable officers like this.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@<Crewman Smyth>::skids to a halt, he stops in front of the CTO and the FCO::CTO/FCO: There was an odd noise, like hissing, I tried to grab the CEO and brushed fabric then he was gone, there was an energy in the air...::He thought for a moment,:: like static electric.

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
#:: Notices that the representation is not completely correct.  Like it was assembled out of order :: Himself:  A lot of trouble to build such an elaborate scene and not use the instructions.

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
#::concentrates psionically on this other, and is surprised to feel as if they are someone familiar::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@::taps her badge::*CO*: Understood sir. We're on our way back.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@<crewman Smyth>FCO/CTO: I'm sorry.. ::Hands the CTO his tricorder, with the scans.::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::shakes his head negatively, thinking of Tessa and Ensign Kell, then sighs::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@::looks at the others:: All: Ok folks, the Captain wants up back on the Dublin now. Let's move out.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@FCO: We can't just leave them....

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@CTO: We'll find another way Lieutenant. Let's move back to the shuttle.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
*FCO *: Before you return, have you found anything that can indicate what the hell happened to Tessa, Ensign Kell and the Darnell's crew?

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@<Crewman Smyth>::Currently feels like an abject failure.::

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@::Sees the determination in the FCO's eyes.:: FCO: Aye.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@OPS: Let's go Mia.

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
# ::looks around the scene again, half expecting someone to show up.  Swallows before she speaks again::  The other:  ~~~The Darnell crew...you didn't...harm them, did you? ~~~

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
@::still absorbed in her analysis.  Has the audio turned up as far as her ears can take it. Notices a flashing on the external sensor console and looks at it, her brow furrowed.  Starts to bring up the data::

Host Tim says:
#ACTION: THE SCENERY FOR BOTH CEO AND XO RETURNS TO WHITE; THERE IS NO "GROUND" OR SOUNDS

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@::turns to the security guard. ::Smyth: You take rear I'll take point. ::He nods.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@::shakes Mia's shoulder:: OPS: Mia, let's go......orders.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::isn't sure about his next step but knows he needs to take the others from immediate danger::

CMO_Ens_Rez says:
@CTO: May I see the tricorder readings when we get back?

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@::the security crewman takes a position by the door as Harker stands at Mia's other shoulder.

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
@::looks up startled:: FCO; What? ::takes the ear piece out:: Commander...look at this....::points to the data:: There was another surge in that ripple.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@CMO: Sure. ::hands the CMO the guard’s tricorder.::

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
#::seems to be floating in a sea of white, no sound :: Himself :  Perhaps they cannot stand constructive criticism.  :: just floats ::

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
#::catches her breath at the disappearance of the beautiful scene and closes her eyes, trying to steady her emotions::  The other:  ~~~I hate that...please just talk to me...~~~

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@::Her attention is on the screen Mia is pointing to.::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@*CO*: Still looking sir. Mia has something but she's still analyzing it.

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
@::looks around at the expressions on their faces:: FCO: Did something just happen?

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::ponders for a moment about the FCO's reply::

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@Ops: The CEO just disappeared from engineering.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@::Thinks to self wow she must of been deep in thought not to hear about that..::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@:;looks at Mia's data:: OPS: Yes, Ensign Kell has disappearing from engineering and the Captain wants us back on the Dublin now.

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
@::her eyes widen:: CTO: What?! ::scrambles to the video board and pulls up the video in engineering:: When?  How long ago?

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@<crewman Smyth>::keeps a watch as best he can, taking the loss of the CEO as personal.::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
*FCO*:  How long until she has it analyzed?

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
#::opens her eyes again and takes a deep breath.  Stands in one spot, wishing for the scene of Ireland, or even her home on Betazed::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@OPS: The Captain wants to know how much more time you need.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@::Gives OPS the information the guard reported, ending with.:: OPS: We gave the guard’s tricorder to the CMO.

Host Tim says:
ACTION: SHIP'S COMPUTER BEEPS AT CMO

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@*CO*: Stand by sir.

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
#:: moves around hoping to find someone or something :: Himself: This isolation becomes tiresome very quickly.

CMO_Ens_Rez says:
@ALL: This is weird. The computer just finished running a DNA scan on the little girl and her DNA matches the Darnell's CO (McGuire) and Darnell Engineer (Gault)

Host Tim says:
#ACTION: THE SCENE CHANGES FOR BOTH CEO AND XO; THEY ARE BOTH IN WHAT LOOKS LIKE THE DUBLIN'S LOUNGE... ALONE

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
@::shaking head:: FCO: I don't know...I need some time. ::runs back the video and sees Kell sitting in engineering then not.  Runs it back to right before he disappeared:: I have to run this through...and correlate the timing of the surge and his disappearance...this is the first time we've had everything running.

CMO_Ens_Rez says:
@All: But the DNA is not scientifically correct; as though it was just put together.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@OPS: Ok Mia, just do what you have to.

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
# The other:  ~~~Okay, look...I like it a lot better when I can see something. ~~~  ::tries to peer through the white fog, then the scene changes again and Tessa finds herself in the Dublin's lounge::

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@::turns to the CMO: Is there any record of them having children?

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@::Wonders for the first time what they were doing out here...::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@*CO*: Captain, it's going to take some time to figure this all out. Do you still want everyone back on the Dublin sir?

CMO_Ens_Rez says:
@CTO: Checking.

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
#:: in a flash finds himself in the Dublin's lounge with the XO :: XO:  Ah Commander nice of you to join me.

CMO_Ens_Rez says:
@CTO: No record of children.

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
#  ::sees the CEO and is ever so glad, but then realizes he's in the same predicament.  Walks over to him with all haste:: CEO:  Pirak...you have a strange sense of humour.  When did you disappear?  And what scene have you been in?

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@::looks puzzled.:: CMO: Then they or something is playing fiddler with DNA...

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
*FCO*:  Bring all non essential personnel back to the Dublin, Mia and Paige will remain.

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
@::nods absentmindedly at Cassie and actually pushes people away from the console.  Mutters as she sees the one blank frame and hears the hissing again:: Self: When did this happen...before or after...it's the same thing all over again.

CMO_Ens_Rez says:
@CTO: It looks like some spliced there DNA together and did a bad job at it.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@*CO*: You don't want me to stay sir?

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@CMO: Could they have done it themselves? I mean the crew on this vessel? We need to eliminate suspects.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::hopes he is taking the right decision... the Darnell indeed has a way better scientific equipment than the Dublin::

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
#XO: Nice to see you too commander.  I was in engineering on the Darnell when I disappeared.  As for how long...it is a little difficult to estimate time when you are bouncing thru scenes from your youth and white clouds.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@::The headache threatening to overtake her earlier came with a vengeance and she rubbed her forehead as she tried to bring this situation into something she could understand.::

CMO_Ens_Rez says:
@CTO: By the looks of it this was done by someone not very familiar with are DNA.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
*FCO*:  If you feel you can assist Mia somehow, then help her.  Send the others back home.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@CMO: So most likely an alien presence, tinkering where they shouldn't....

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@CMO: Any clues as to who?

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
#::takes a seat, feeling very wearied of this 'bouncing around':: CEO:  This I know.   I meant how long after I disappeared did you do the vanishing act?  And did you hear those clicking sounds?

CMO_Ens_Rez says:
@CTO: That would be my guess a first year med student could do a better job then this.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@*CO*: I just thought a senior officer....::pauses:: I will return with the others Captain. Cassie out.

CMO_Ens_Rez says:
@CTO: I will have to do further scans on it with the lab on the Dublin.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@CMO: A first year med student couldn't get access, how does someone who doesn't know enough to fill an essay do this sort of thing, there's got to be technology backing them up.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@CMO: Understood.

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
#XO: Long enough for me to prepare the Darnell for flight and have a mug of Raktijino.  Clicking sounds?  Nothing clicking Commander.  But I must say this is the most pleasant scene I have encountered.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@:moves over to Mia and Paige:: OPS/CTO: Ok the Captain wants the away team to return, but your two are to remain here and work on this data. Is that understood?

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
# ::gets up and takes a few steps back, eyeing Pirak more closely::  CEO:  Wait a minute...how do I know you're the real Pirak?

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@FCO: Yes Ma’am. ::relieved there would be fewer personnel to worry about.::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::listens to Cassie's words::  *FCO*:  Acknowledge.  ::does not like to speak to her wife this way but as the ship's Commanding Officer, he can't afford to treat anyone in a different way while on duty::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@CTO: He's to come as well Lieutenant.

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
# ::looks out toward the window::  The other: ~~~Where are the other crewmembers?  Have you taken them all?  Why is only one here?~~~  ::gives up and looks back at Pirak, waiting::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@::heads for the lift:: OPS/CTO: Good luck ladies.

CMO_Ens_Rez says:
@::heads for the lift::

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
#XO: Well because I know how ravishing you looked in the dresses on Urlath.  :: smiles ::

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@FCO: Thanks ma’am, if anything happens...just be careful...::Gives a smile of support to the FCO.::

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
@::runs the timeline again and again, not even noticing that the others had left:: Self: Okay.....first the surge and then the hissing...no...no...the hissing is very faint....it started before the surge....when did they disappear....hmmm.....

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@::smiles at Doc:: CMO: Sorry Doc, but orders are orders.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
FCO_Rien:  Prepare Shuttle bay one to receive the Gryphon back.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@::Plugs into the computer the exact circumstances of each disappearance.::

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:

CMO_Ens_Rez says:
@FCO: That’s ok; I need to get this data back to my lab to figure out how been playing match maker.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@:;arrives at the docking port and opens the airlock:: CMO/Guard: Please have a seat.

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
@::outloud:: Okay...got the sequence...first there is a faint hissing...then the surge and then they disappear. So what is this damn hissing?

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
Rien:  Good.  ::crosses his legs and supports his chin on his left hand, still looking at the Darnell, then mumbles::  Darnell:  What are you doing?  What secrets are you holding?

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@<Crewman Smyth>::Secretly glad to be leaving but is worried for his chief and the other officer, he allows the CMO to sit first, then takes his seat.::

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
#XO: It would seem the you and I are the only ones here as yet.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
@:;begins undocking sequence:: All: Ready to go home?

CMO_Ens_Rez says:
@::sits down:: FCO: You bet.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
#XO: You have been speaking to them commander?  These beings must have enjoyed what you said.  ::  smiles a slimy Cardassian smile ::  Yes I noticed that, the have the memories but not the details.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
<Yeoman Smith>::brings the Captain some coffee::  CO:  Sir?

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@::wants to get up and pace but doesn't want to be far from Clooney just in case...thinks to self, that they've got to have been taken somewhere, to believe otherwise is too much. Regardless, she will not rest until the mystery is solved and leans again over the readouts.::

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:

CMO_Ens_Rez says:
@FCO: Any thoughts on were are crew has gone or who is doing this?

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::nods to Smith, picks up the cup of coffee:: OPS_Moondoggie: Is that so?  ::is amused by Moondoggie's sense of humour but can't help being concerned about the two missing officers::

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
#  ::has an idea::  CEO:  Okay, let's try something...think of the dance that one night at Urlath...but picture that we're dancing together, okay?  On the count of three?  I want to see if they are understanding our speech or only our imaginings.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@OPS: There's got to be some clue, there's always a fingerprint, some hint of who is behind this or where the energy goes, Newton’s law, nothing just disappears it just changes shape.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
*Gryphon*:  Understood, Gryphon.  Shuttle bay One is ready and awaiting.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:

Grabs her tricorder and rifle:: CTO:  ::shrugs at the CTO's apology::  CTO: Stay here and watch the console....I need to take a walk and scan the ship manually.  there has got to be more here than that stupid hissing and that damn ripple. ::walks off the bridge, needing a little solitude::

*FCO*:  Commander Adams-MacLeod, this is the Captain.  Head to Main Engineering and get me transporters back online at once!  They have promised me in 10 minutes and their time is up!

#::smoothes her pale blue dress and then her blond hair::

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@::Steps into the turbolift.:: OPS much as I'd like to Mia, I couldn't stand if another officer disappeared on my watch, there's nothing more I can learn from those readouts anyway.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
*CO*: I'm a pilot not an engineer Captain! ::sighs::

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@::holds up the tricorder.:: OPS: If anything changes the computer will download to this.

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
@::slings her rifle over her shoulder and looks at her:: CTO: Like you being anywhere near me will stop anyone of us disappearing?  If I remember correctly you were this far from the XO when she disappeared.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::sighs at his wife's reply::  *FCO*:  Get there and twist some necks to get it working!  You know how to do it.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
*CO*: Aye sir, but just remember who's going home with you tonight, Captain! ::sighs again and heads to engineering::

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
@::stops dead in her tracks, Mia's words hitting her with the force of a phaser blast.::

*CMO*:  Doctor Rez, I'll be waiting for your report.

CMO_Ens_Rez says:
*CO*: I am on my way to the med lab now and I well send you what I’ve got so far.

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
#  ::smiles slightly at Pirak:: CEO:  Thank you, but I think we're being manipulated.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::shakes head at her last reply and rolls eyes on orbits::

Host Little_girl says:
#::Cocks her head as though listening:: XO: You dance nicely.

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
#:: Hears the voice of the little girl and turns quickly standing between the girl and the XO::  XO: This must be our host Commander.
