@::envelops the newcomers. This way they will not attempt to leave again::

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
Engineering: You heard the man! Brace for impact! ::holds on tightly to the "Pool Table" systems display she is next to::

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
CO:  Captain, we've been locked in.

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
:: hangs on tightly to the Counselor and the biobed ::

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
CO: Landing now.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
Aloud: All stations report.

CTO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
CO: I agree Captain, we're closed in. Checking tactical systems. Security reports normal.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
FCO: Pick a spot and set it down. ::Looks curious.::

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
::lands the ship on the cave floor and then whips sweat from his forehead::

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
::gazes down at Danara's hand on his, more than a little displeased with her choice:: CMO: Respectfully, I meant something ::emphasis on 'thing':: not someone, doctor.

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
<Laris> XO: All done Commander.

CTO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
CO: No change in my systems Sir.

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
*CO*: Engineering status unchanged Sir.

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
OPS: This planet really must love us dearly and now it's hugging us.

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
CO:  No change with operations, Captain.  ::sighs:  
All:  Well .. we're back .. on the planet again.

CTO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
::checks outside atmosphere..::

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
:: pulls her hand away :: CNS: Oh really Quon, relax please. Your hand was just handy for the moment.

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
FCO:  Yes, but only this time we're inside it.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
OPS: Acknowledge engineering and have them keep impulse power at standby.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
::hears the Captain and stops her 'search'::  *CTO*: I'm sorry, Paige.  Please tell the Captain I tried.  And...what just happened?

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
*CEO*:  Acknowledged Ensign Hembrook.  Captain says to keep impulse power at standby.

Evissam says:
@::decides to make himself heard:: ~~~Why do you want to leave?~~~

Host Tim says:
ACTION: ALL DUBLIN CREW FEEL A PRESSURE IN THEIR MINDS

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
CTO: Throw every scanner we have at it.

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
*OPS*: It'll be ready... all systems standing by.

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
CMO: Yesss, I noticed. ::this hiss being intentional::

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
::Holds her head.::  ALL:  My head!  What is that!

CTO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
*XO*Thanks anyway Tessa...I.. ::feels a slight pain in her head, grabs it...::

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Holds a hand to his head and shakes it slightly.::

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
::holds her tongue again as she sees Danara's action::  CNS: Something must have gone wrong...can you sense it?

CTO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
::Shakes head, puzzled.:: Any: What was that...

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
::feels pain in  his head:: all: did you feel that?

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
Self:  Get it out of my head.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
Aloud: Tell me all of you heard that.

Evissam says:
@~~~ I can make you all very comfortable.. With me.~~~

CTO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
::Slightly disorientated...::CO: Yes Sir. Something about why do we want to leave..

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
:: moves to the bottom of Quon's bed :: Dvari: Did you hear something?

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
::Looks around nervously, then gets annoyed, wondering why she is feeling pressure in her head, she isn't empathic, quite the opposite, she has always been hard to read::

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
Self: Who is speaking?

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
OPS: You reading anything on communications channels?

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
XO: I do...a voice unlike any... ::tries to focus through Tessa's own mind in an attempt to get a clearer understanding of this newly encountered intelligence::

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
<Laris> CMO: Someone spoke to me, you too?

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
::Checks communications.::  CO:  Nothing, Sir.  But .. I think someone's trying to talk telepathically to me.  I hear voices.

Evissam says:
@::makes the cavern walls glow brighter, and shifts his nutrients concentrations allowing his rapid growth vegetables to grow freely inside the cave::

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
out loud: Grandpa is that you?

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
Dvari: Yes, a voice, familiar, yet not.

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
XO/CNS: Did either of you hear a voice?

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
::the pressure is not unfamiliar::  ~~~Evissam: Whom are you?  We are in trouble~~~

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
out loud: Who are you? What are you doing to us?

Evissam says:
@~~~ You are all safe. ~~~

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Taps his badge instinctively.:: *Bridge to sickbay*: Doctor get Cmdr Jakiel and the CNS up here. I think we may need them

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
Evissam:  What do you want from us?  Why have you brought us here?

CTO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
::puzzled and out of sorts, all she can think right now is she wants to go home, to her own galaxy..::

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
::silently nods to Danara with his eyes closed, finding he can 'touch' the new presence even without much of Tessa's aid::

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
::looks at Quon::  CNS:  You can use a hover chair for now.

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
*CO*: Captain, I can send Commander Jakiel up but the counselor is still under care.

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
CO:  I'm picking up increased vegetation inside the cavern on scanners, Captain.

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
::Starts tinkering with the field coils and shields seeing if she can block out the invading voice::

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
::looks with wonder at the vegetation growing inside::

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
Aloud: All of you do not speak to it. ::Steps to the OPS console.::

Evissam says:
@~~~ You will be happy. You will make me complete. You will live~~~

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
*CMO*: Understood.

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
XO: That is precisely what I was thinking of, Tessa. ::opens his eyes and looks to Danara with a blank stare::

CTO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
CO: Aye Sir...::Cuts off what she was going to say to the entity.::

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
::Looks at the Captain at her console and wonders what he's planning to do.::

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
XO: Commander, the Captain needs you on the bridge if you're up to it.

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
::finds himself doing the exact same thing as Cadet Daniels::

CTO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
::Cuts off the thought that 'but I don't want to be an eve..'::

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
Evissam: Who are you and why are you keeping us here?

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
CMO: If the Counselor is willing.  He should be fine.

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
XO: Commander?

Evissam says:
~~~ I am me. And you will live on me. Forever. ~~~

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
CMO: Doctor, please lend me the use of a hover chair.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Moves to the tactical console and gesture for her to try and track the source of the communication.::

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
:: shakes her head as the voice continues talking ::

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
CMO:  The hover chair.  He should be fine in that.

CTO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
*XO*: Commander we need you on the bridge...::just after the planets last words.::..*XO*:NOW please...

CTO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
::Nods at the CO and does as instructed, trying to track the source.::

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
CO:  Communications are coming in from all over the ship, Captain, reporting this voice we are hearing.  What are your orders?  What do you want me to tell them?

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
XO: Sorry Commander, but it's been disassembled. It will take some time to repair it.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Nods to cadet Daniels::

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
Evissam: Are you this planet?

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
Self:  I'm really a lot of work, Evissam.  You won't like me.

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
*CO*: I'm on my way, Sir.  ::feels dizzy as she stands, one hand on the biobed::

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
XO: Tessa, go. This is not a time to argue with our esteemed colleague. I will try to assist you from here.

CEO_Ens_Hembrook says:
::Continues to monitor the Engineering systems and adjust the shields and fields to try and stop the voices::

Evissam says:
~~~ I am me. Others call me Evissam ~~~

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
CMO: It will not take long for engineering to replicate one . I'll have them send one.

CMO_Ens_Danara says:
<Laris>XO: Commander, are you sure you are alright?

FCO_Ens_Delgado says:
Evissam: Why do you want us here?

CTO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
::Can't help but wonder "Why us?".::

CTO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
CO: Sir it’s a mind to mind link I can't track that...

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Thinks about stopping Delgado but thinks better of it.::

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
::shakes her lowered head::  Laris: I'll be fine for a little while.  The Captain needs me.

Evissam says:
~~~ You will flourish. You will complete me. You will keep me company~~~

Evissam says:
~~~ I am your home ~~~

CNS_LtCmdr_So`Quon says:
XO: Tessa, the captain needs you. We can write our objections on this later. This Evissam is the real danger now. Please hurry.

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Whispers hoping it won't hear.:: CTO: Keep trying anything you can think of.

CTO_Lt_Commander_Harker says:
CO: Aye Sir. ::Thinks to self, "CTO fight a planet-Aye Sir.."::

XO_Cmdr_Jakiel says:
::starts walking towards the sickbay doors::

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
Evissam: Can we meet you face to face. We are not used to such communication.

Evissam says:
~~~ I am all around you. Wherever you look, you will see me~~~

OPS_Cadet_Daniels says:
::Looks at the Captain.::

Evissam says:
@::makes the tiny glowing crystals in the walls glow stronger::

Host Tim says:
ACTION: THE CAVERN BECOMES ALMOST BLINDLY BRIGHTER

Host CO_Capt_Cerdan says:
::Takes a deep breath and rubs his chin.::

Host Tim says:
