::At the CONN Station looking at the navigational data.::

MO_O`Questra says:
::continues scans of the CSO::

TO_Peter says:
::stands up and heads for the CEO and OPS::

OPS_Corillo says:
::lets go off the CEO and turns to the XO::

CSO_Gomes says:
::starts to open her eyes::

MO_O`Questra says:
::looks at the fight and the blood that has dripped on the floor::  self: oh no

SO_Rosenberg says:
::still with the CSO on the bridge while the MO is scanning the CSO::

CEO_Atrides says:
::is standing still, his eyes full of hatred for the OPS, his throat slightly red.::

CTO_Timrok says:
::looks over & sees the confrontation between ops & CEO::

OPS_Corillo says:
XO: Ma'am, I request permission to go to sickbay.

MO_O`Questra says:
CSO: are you well enough to stand? I have another problem

CSO_Gomes says:
::sees the MO and SO::MO/SO: I collapsed again?

SO_Rosenberg says:
MO: Is she gonna be fine..?

SO_Rosenberg says:
CSO: I'm afraid so Ma'am, again your dreams...?

TO_Peter says:
::watches the CEO, just in case::

CSO_Gomes says:
MO: Yes...I'll be all right ::looks around the bridge:: MO: yes you do

MO_O`Questra says:
SO: I can't find anything weird.. electrolyte count went down.. nothing else

FCO_Talac_Zal says:
::looks over the helm diagnostics report coming in.::

OPS_Corillo says:
::ignoring the CEO walks to the XO holding his jaw::

SO_Rosenberg says:
::nods::  MO: Good...

OPS_Corillo says:
XO: Ma'am, request permission to go to sickbay.

CSO_Gomes says:
MO/SO: I'm all right...this will have to wait

CEO_Atrides says:
::still has the two knives at his belt, but makes no move to use them or even acknowledge their prescreen. He smirks slightly as he watches the OPS walk away::

Host XO_Fey says:
OPS: Permission granted.

MO_O`Questra says:
::helps the CSO to her feet:: CSO: easy up Gomes

OPS_Corillo says:
::goes to the TL::

MO_O`Questra says:
OPS: hang on Sal..

CSO_Gomes says:
MO: Thank you ::smiles and stands up::

SO_Rosenberg says:
::helps also::

OPS_Corillo says:
::stops and waits for MO::

TO_Peter says:
::moves back to his seat::

MO_O`Questra says:
::heads for the TL:: CSO: you know where I am If you need me again..

OPS_Corillo says:
::enters the TL and waits for MO::

CSO_Gomes says:
MO: Don't worry

CSO_Gomes says:
SO: What happened here?

CEO_Atrides says:
::walks over to the XO:: XO: Permission to return to Engineering ma'am.

MO_O`Questra says:
::enters the TL and begins a scan of OPS as the door shut::

SO_Rosenberg says:
CSO: Just give a yell when you feel it coming again… ok..?  ::smiles::

OPS_Corillo says:
TL: Sickbay

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
::Lying on a bio-bed in sickbay::

OPS_Corillo says:
MO: Is it bad?

TO_Peter says:
::sits in chair and starts to monitor the tac systems:::

MO_O`Questra says:
OPS: it's broke but good Sal.. ::continues the scan:: nothing I can't fix

OPS_Corillo says:
self: Great.

CSO_Gomes says:
::smiles:: SO: I'll try...it looks like I missed a lot of action...where is Reiley...did he have anything to do with this?

OPS_Corillo says:
::TL doors open::

MO_O`Questra says:
::TL doors open to deck 12::  OPS: come on..

TO_Peter says:
::hears the CSO and brings up the sickbay display on the chair arm::

OPS_Corillo says:
::follows MO::

SO_Rosenberg says:
CSO: Good....yes he was the "brain" behind the operation, but he was critically injured and taken to sickbay...

MO_O`Questra says:
::enters sickbay and points to a bio-bed:: OPS: I need to check on our guest.. be right there

CSO_Gomes says:
SO: Was he responsible for OPS being injured?

OPS_Corillo says:
MO: Otay. ::hops on the biobed and lies down::

CEO_Atrides says:
::repeats himself.:: XO: Permission to return to Engineering ma'am.

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
::Sits up on bio-bed, feeling nauseous and in pain following the injury:: MO: Where is Commander... Fey?

SO_Rosenberg says:
CSO: Not that I know of....

Host XO_Fey says:
CEO: Permission granted.

MO_O`Questra says:
::walks into the next room where Reiley is::  Reiley: she is on the bridge.. now lay back down

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
MO: No... I will not lay back down. I need to speak to her... are you... freeing the Gionans?

CEO_Atrides says:
::nods and goes to the TL, not saying a word to anyone about his actions. Entering the TL, he takes it to Engineering.::

OPS_Corillo says:
::looks at Reiley:: Reiley:: This is your fault you know.

FCO_Talac_Zal says:
XO:  We are currently still hiding behind Alterax II.  What are your orders ma'am?

TO_Peter says:
::watches the action in sickbay closely::

MO_O`Questra says:
Reiley: I don't know .. that’s not my job.. My job is to fix you up.. now lay down!

OPS_Corillo says:
MO: Give him a sedative Doc.

MO_O`Questra says:
::grabs a hypo full of sedative:: OPS: my thought the same Sal ::walks to Reiley::

CTO_Timrok says:
::turns & looks at Fey::

CSO_Gomes says:
SO: Do we have console control?

SO_Rosenberg says:
CSO: But I'm not sure what Cmdr Fey wants to do next....we'll hear in a sec I think..

OPS_Corillo says:
::grabs his jaw and tries to pop it into place and grimaces at the pain::

MO_O`Questra says:
::looks at the ceiling as Sal pops his jaw:: self: men..

Slave says:
@:: is a hard done by slave totally oblivious of whatever is driving these nasty people who keep whipping her::

CSO_Gomes says:
SO: All right...but lets see what information we can get...we are orbiting a planet?

Host XO_Fey says:
FCO: Have we gained...hold steady for now. I think we need to get together and discuss the possibilities.

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
::Stands up:: MO: I honestly do not give... about my health.

CEO_Atrides says:
::enters the empty Engineering, silent except for the hum of machines. He begins to work, checking power and such, his thoughts focused on the power. Driving the thoughts of the people on the surface of the planet, he does his task like a robot… without emotion.::

SO_Rosenberg says:
CSO: No, we're still on our way...

FCO_Talac_Zal says:
XO:  Aye Ma'am.

TO_Peter says:
::decides that he should take a trip to sickbay:: CTO: Sir, permission to keep an eye on Reiley

Slave says:
@::flinches as the whip cuts into her back::

SO_Rosenberg says:
CSO: Hiding to be exactly...

CTO_Timrok says:
TO: granted - keep an eye on Ops also!

MO_O`Questra says:
::gets annoyed:: Reiley: Sit!

FCO_Talac_Zal says:
::Looks back at CSO::  CSO: We are currently hiding behind Alterax II.  The Colonists are on Alterax III.

OPS_Corillo says:
Reiley: That is obvious. Why did you have to take the Elara?

Slave says:
@::grunts with the pain::

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
::Gets even more annoyed::

TO_Peter says:
CTO: Aye sir, ::gets into TL:: Computer: SB

MO_O`Questra says:
::grabs a bone regenerator and fixes the OPS's face::

Slave says:
::has visions of getting  back at the slave-drivers ... but knows pain will follow ... so just tries to bear it::

MO_O`Questra says:
::seals the cuts while talking to Reiley::  Reiley: I said sit down..

Host XO_Fey says:
*ALL SHIP* Able bodied staff with any information on our current situation, please report to the bridge.

Slave says:
::grits teeth::

CSO_Gomes says:
SO: Hiding?? ::looks at their location on Science one:: SO: From the Cardassians I assume...I thought the war was over...

FCO_Talac_Zal says:
::Turns to the XO.::

TO_Peter says:
::exits the TL and heads for SB::

MO_O`Questra says:
OPS: there .. all fixed..

OPS_Corillo says:
MO: Gotta go doc.

OPS_Corillo says:
MO: Thanks. ::smiles at MO::

OPS_Corillo says:
::rubs chin as he heads for TL::

CEO_Atrides says:
::sighs and takes the TL back to the bridge, his face devoid of all emotion.::

Slave says:
::hits the rock as instructed .... and grunts with pain again::

MO_O`Questra says:
::grabs a hypo containing a vaccine and grabs Reiley's arm..:: Reiley: fine.. ::gives him the injection::

FCO_Talac_Zal says:
CSO:  I have us hidden only to assure that the Cardassians don't spot us.

SO_Rosenberg says:
::initiates full scans of Alterax III:: CSO: Yes, I thought that too, but it seems that those Cardassians don't know it or just don't take in seriously...

TO_Peter says:
::gets back into the TL:: Computer: Bridge ::mumbles::

OPS_Corillo says:
::enters TL::TL: Bridge.

FCO_Talac_Zal says:
CSO:  Its just a safety precaution.

CEO_Atrides says:
::enters another TL:: TL: Bridge

Host XO_Fey says:
FCO Keep us hidden if possible. No point in taking chances.

MO_O`Questra says:
Reiley: a McCoy specialty.. it will repair the damage.. slowly.. 

TO_Peter says:
::nods to OPS::

CTO_Timrok says:
XO: if you are considering an assault on the prison then Mr. Reiley’s input would be advisable ma'am

OPS_Corillo says:
::nods in return::

FCO_Talac_Zal says:
XO:  Aye Ma'am.

CSO_Gomes says:
FCO/SO: you are right...they won't like to see us here

Slave says:
@::disgruntled::

OPS_Corillo says:
::TL Doors open and exits to bridge::

TO_Peter says:
::exits the TL and heads back to his seat::

FCO_Talac_Zal says:
::Turns back to the CONN station.  Continues to run navigational scans for ships in the area.::

OPS_Corillo says:
XO: Ma'am request permission to resume duty.

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
::Feels sluggish, pushes the MO out of the way::

SO_Rosenberg says:
::smiles faintly:: CSO: No, I guess they wouldn't...would they...

CSO_Gomes says:
::turns to her station and tries to scan Alterax III through Alterax II::

Host XO_Fey says:
::turns to Corillo:: OPS: Return to duty, if you are able.

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
::Takes the MO's comm.-badge, and taps it:: *XO* Fey, I need to speak to you now!

CEO_Atrides says:
::exits the TL and onto the Bridge, silent still. He is still wearing civilian clothes, not having the chance to change.::

OPS_Corillo says:
CEO: Nice uniform.

MO_O`Questra says:
::grabs a tricorder and follows Reiley::

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
::Hands the MO back the comm.-badge::

OPS_Corillo says:
XO: Ma'am request permission to resume duty.

TO_Peter says:
::sees the CEO and chuckles::

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
::Exits sickbay, not really caring if the MO follows::

SO_Rosenberg says:
::turns back to his console and resumes his scans of the colony::

MO_O`Questra says:
Reiley: oh no you don't.. I'm coming with you mister!

Host XO_Fey says:
*Reiley*: Are you able to come to the bridge to give your information?

Slave says:
::gets to the food area and is hungry::

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
*XO* I am coming... are you... going to free the Gionans?

OPS_Corillo says:
::goes and stands near the OPS station::

CEO_Atrides says:
::his face does not redden or anything.:: OPS: Thank you. And I see your rules and regulations have kept you perfectly dressed as usual, like the loyal dog you are.

Host XO_Fey says:
OPS: Take your station.

Slave says:
@::watches as all the best food gets taken by those in charge::

MO_O`Questra says:
::follows Reiley.. with tricorder scanning::

OPS_Corillo says:
XO: Aye, aye. ::sits at OPS::

OPS_Corillo says:
::runs a level 4 diagnostic on all OPS systems::

Slave says:
@::salivates::

OPS_Corillo says:
::scans the planet surface for life signs::

G`Lena says:
@::straightens, and wipes sweat from her brow::

Host XO_Fey says:
*Reiley* : That's what we are going to discuss

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
::Enters a TL, and has the doors shut before the MO can enter:: Computer: Bridge.

Slave says:
@::so hungry ... would almost do anything for a bite of that food::

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
@ <Cardassian # 1> ::Kicks "Slave" in the back:: Get back to work!

MO_O`Questra says:
::grit teeth:: ~~~Reiley: Mister Reiley! I will not tolerate that!~~~

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
::Ignores O'Questra, mumbles something about telepaths::

MO_O`Questra says:
::waits for the next TL.. fuming::

Slave says:
@::wondering why she cannot eat ... when .... them ... those .... they eat!!!::

G`Lena says:
@::glares at the Cardassian, and starts over to intervene::  Cardassian:  You'll get more out of him, if you don't kick so hard...

CEO_Atrides says:
::stays where he is, by the TL, his eyes focused on nothing in particular::

slave2 says:
@:: looks at g'lena ::

SO_Rosenberg says:
::still looking at the scan results::

G`Lena says:
@::reaches a hand out to help the slave up, and away from the Cardassian's boot::

MO_O`Questra says:
::marches back to sickbay to check on Captain Harison::

Slave says:
@::sidles around the area .... picks up a dropped crust ... bites into it ... anything to stave off the hunger::

TO__Peter says:
::finishes the simulations::

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
@ <Cardassians 2 & 3> ::Prepare to strike G'lena and Slave2 if needed::

Host XO_Fey says:
ALL: All right. I need your input. What do we want to do with the situation? Is a rescue feasible?

CSO_Gomes says:
XO: In order to get accurate scans of the colony I'm afraid we will have to get out of our hiding

G`Lena says:
@::moves out of the way, and back to work::

OPS_Corillo says:
::sends SFC current ship status and situation vitals via subspace communications::

CEO_Atrides says:
All: You know my feelings about the situation. Some more than others.

TO__Peter says:
XO: I believe so ma'am

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
::Arrives on the bridge, breathing hard... still injured, holds onto a console...::

FCO_Talac_Zal says:
XO:  I believe we can rescue them.  But we will have to work together with such a small staff.

slave2 says:
@:: continues to work ::

G`Lena says:
@::resumes toiling for the slave-masters::

Host XO_Fey says:
OPS: Start there. Send the information.

Slave says:
@::while the bread hurts her throat as it goes down her gullet ...she thinks of those she was forced to leave behind .... would they be eating?::

CTO_Timrok says:
XO: we have to know what were up against

MO_O`Questra says:
::CO Harison vital are still stable.. grabs a med. kit and head back to the bridge::

OPS_Corillo says:
XO: Aye, aye.  FCO: Please transfer our current position to my console.

Slave says:
@<slave-driver>:Slave: Get back to work! ::raises whip::

FCO_Talac_Zal says:
::Transfers navigational data to the OPS console.::

G`Lena says:
@::attention caught by the slave-driver, but figures she's pushed it enough today; keeps working::

OPS_Corillo says:
::adds navigational data to message sent to SFC::

Slave says:
@::flinches away and hurriedly goes back to her assigned area .... losing the last bit of bread on her way::

MO_O`Questra says:
::enters the bridge and walks over to Reiley::

FCO_Talac_Zal says:
OPS:  I would make sure you encrypt that data so the Cardassians don't intercept it.

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
::Waves the MO away::

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
::Walks over to Fey::

TO__Peter says:
::runs some scans of the area::

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
XO: Well, what is the plan?

TO__Peter says:
::turns to face Reiley::

OPS_Corillo says:
FCO: Already done, thanks. ::smiles at FCO::

Host XO_Fey says:
::Turns to the Lt. Cmdr::  Reiley: Can you tell us what you know about this situation? 

Slave says:
::grieves for nourishment left on the floor ... hopes another friend may eat on it .... if she cannot::

MO_O`Questra says:
::stands .. still fuming at a very uncooperative patient::

CEO_Atrides says:
::still stands there, not being acknowledged, though he rather be this way anyway. His thoughts are blank, his mood cold, his emotions not showing.::

SO_Rosenberg says:
::looks surprised as Reiley enters the bridge and walks towards the XO::

FCO_Talac_Zal says:
::Smiling::  OPS:  You can never be to careful in Cardassian space.

Slave says:
::gets back to work .... smiling obsequiously at the local whip-person::

OPS_Corillo says:
FCO: Now that's an understatement! ::chuckles::

FCO_Talac_Zal says:
CSO:  Do we have any records in the databanks on the building layouts on Alterax III?

MO_O`Questra says:
::turns to the blank CEO:: ~~~CEO: Artides! Snap out of it!~~~

slave2 says:
@:: pulls a role out of his  pocket  and splits it  with slave :: 

G`Lena says:
@::works her way over to the others::

FCO_Talac_Zal says:
::Nods at OPS.::

CSO_Gomes says:
FCO: Good idea, I'll check ::turns to her station::

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
XO: Scans of Alterax III by passing Starships during the invasion of Cardassian space during the final days of the war showed that there was minimal Cardassians on the surface...

CEO_Atrides says:
::he ignores the MO's attempts of communication. He merely awaits the orders so he may return to Engineering.::

CTO_Timrok says:
Reiley: how well do you know the layout  of where these people are being held?

OPS_Corillo says:
XO: That data is 3 years old!

TO__Peter says:
::stays watching Reiley::

SO_Rosenberg says:
::helps the CSO with the search in the SF database::

Slave says:
@::trips over a small pebble ... curses ... hopes the slave-driver did not see ... and resumes work ... grieving for the small piece of bread::

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
::Throws a look at OPS:: OPS: Actually, it's one years old.

FCO_Talac_Zal says:
XO:  I think a quick offensive strike would be in order.  Go in quick with shuttles and get back fast.

G`Lena says:
@::reaches the area the majority of the slaves are working in, and works silently alongside for awhile, watching the guards out of the corner of her eye::

Slave says:
@::hungry::

OPS_Corillo says:
Reiley: I stand corrected.

OPS_Corillo says:
XO: In any case, the info. is outdated. We should get new Intel.

CSO_Gomes says:
XO: According to Starfleet records the information is accurate...

FCO_Talac_Zal says:
XO:  We may be able to jam there communications from the Elara to give us more time.

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
::Holds onto one of the chairs:: XO: I believe an armed force that goes in quick and takes them by surprise... well, we could get the Gionans back to their homeworld by the end of the week.

CEO_Atrides says:
Self, thinking about OPS: Yeah you do, you spineless bootlicker. ::turns to the XO:: XO: I agree with the FCO. Quick attack would do fine most likely.

slave2 says:
@::sees  g'lena and walks over to her::

Slave says:
@::realizing her work partner is not here today ... is he sick?  have they taken him away too?  ::spares a thought for his family::

Host XO_Fey says:
FCO: Can we safely get in range to let the Science officers check the information?

MO_O`Questra says:
::doesn't like this conversation::

G`Lena says:
@::sees slave2, and hisses at him::  Slave2:  Be careful!  The slave-drivers will see...

FCO_Talac_Zal says:
XO:  Hmmm.  Yes I think I could get us in undetected,  But I recommend a long range probe.

TO__Peter says:
XO: I wouldn’t use shuttles...they are sure to see us land, and we have no tactical team remember

Slave says:
@::carries on with the work .... hating all those who do this to her and her family::

CSO_Gomes says:
Reiley: Do you think we have enough people for an assault? Since you beamed most of the crew away

FCO_Talac_Zal says:
TO:  If we jam there sensors shuttles would be fast and hard to detect.

CSO_Gomes says:
XO: I agree with the FCO, I small probe would be the best

G`Lena says:
@:;bends over her work closer, watching to see if the slave-drivers are paying close attention::

slave2 says:
@::whispers:: g'lena: you ok sis

MO_O`Questra says:
XO: the CSO has a point.. we are highly out manned

Host XO_Fey says:
ALL: This will have to be quick and simple or not at all. ... CSO: Do you have such a probe ready?

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
CSO: These Cardassians have been here since the beginning of the war... Cardassia Prime was hit hard by the Jem'Hadar as you know... the outer held colonies were hardly cared for which relief efforts concentrated back home...

TO__Peter says:
FCO: but they would know we were coming wouldn't they, then we lose the element of surprise

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
CSO: They have hardly any food... are tired, and haven't seen battle in years.

Slave says:
@::feels the perspiration slide down her back ... lifting rocks was not what her parents dreamed for her::

G`Lena says:
@::whispers back::  Slave2:  Please, at least make a pretense of working.  Here....  ::hands him a large container to fill with ore::

CSO_Gomes says:
Reiley: I hope you are right

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
ALL: However... you're a highly trained crew. You've dealt with battle time and again... I have no doubt you can handle this. It is your choice.

CSO_Gomes says:
XO: I can get a probe fast with the help of the SO and CEO

FCO_Talac_Zal says:
TO:  We could not beam them up quickly enough if the Cardassians have a sheild generator.

Slave says:
@::wonders how, with this little fluid intake, she can still sweat::

slave2 says:
@:: starts   working ::

TO__Peter says:
FCO: That’s why we beam down and knock it out

SO_Rosenberg says:
::hears the CSO and nods::

CTO_Timrok says:
Lt_Cmdr_Reiley: are you fit enough to travel to the surface - as i remember this is YOUR crusade

MO_O`Questra says:
All: that’s all just peachy.. we have no crew.. what you see is it.. and I think it's a bad idea.. you need me.. I'm in sickbay.. ::walks off the bridge::

OPS_Corillo says:
CSO: Can you maximize the effectiveness of the probe by having it scan just for Gionian and Cardassian life forms?

SO_Rosenberg says:
::prepares a general probe to be prepared::

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
::Looks at the CTO:: CTO: I could be on one leg and I would still do this.

FCO_Talac_Zal says:
TO:  But we risk our selves by beaming down.  In a shuttle there is a way to abort.

CSO_Gomes says:
::wonders what will happen if they do this:: OPS: I believe so

CEO_Atrides says:
All: I'll do it… send me down with everyone else who is doing it. I still stand firm we should do it.

Slave says:
@::sees a new slave start to 'work' ... Slave2: You new here?  If so .... then this way is easier on the back ::tries to smile::

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
::Smiles at the CEO's determination::

Host XO_Fey says:
CTO: Recommendations for an AT? Do you think it's a good idea from a security perspective?

TO__Peter says:
FCO: and we risk the lives of the colonists if we use a shuttle...

slave2 says:
@g'lena: why do you think the  federation abandoned  us or  do you think  they wood  come back for us?

CSO_Gomes says:
SO: Lets do this ::starts programming the small probe::

G`Lena says:
@::frowns::  Slave2:  Federation?  Pah, they care nothing for the likes of us...

Slave says:
@::passes Slave2 a digging tool::

CTO_Timrok says:
XO: we could send Mr. Reiley & the TO down - we don’t have crew to risk

SO_Rosenberg says:
CSO: Aye  ::selects the specific components needed and lists them::

FCO_Talac_Zal says:
TO:  But I can see your point.  I think we could come up with a quick plan for the mission.  If we try a combination.  We could beam one or two member AT and knock out there sensors then bring down shuttles for support.

MO_O`Questra says:
::enters sickbay and heads for the CMO's Office.. plops down in the chair and turns on the master display relay.. ::

G`Lena says:
@::tries to repress the surge of anger slave2's question raised in her::

Slave says:
@::looks up at G'Lena's words:: G'Lena:  We dig or we die! .... so who are you and what is your agenda?

Host XO_Fey says:
CSO: We'll send the probe when you say it's ready. ... CTO: Acknowledged.

G`Lena says:
@::tackles her work with more fury, an outlet for her anger::

CSO_Gomes says:
XO: Almost done...

MO_O`Questra says:
::begins catching up on paper work and looks back into sickbay.. :: ~~~CO: I wish you would wake up sir..~~~ ::sighs and goes back to padd::

G`Lena says:
@::glares at Slave::  Slave:  I dig, as they demand!  ::points at her filled containers, and turns back to filling another::

SO_Rosenberg says:
CSO: General components ready...waiting updated programming...

FCO_Talac_Zal says:
TO:  We will know more when the probe sends back the recon. data.

TO_Peter says:
FCO: Yes we will

CTO_Timrok says:
XO: we currently have two engineering staff on board - we could get buy with one perhaps

CSO_Gomes says:
::prepares the probe with minimal programming...only enough to go near the planet and scan for Cardassians and Gionans::

Slave says:
@G'Lena:  But you are new here ....

Host XO_Fey says:
*sickbay* IS Lt. Cmdr. Reiley ok'ed for temporary duty?

CSO_Gomes says:
SO: I believe it's enough...we could do better but...

slave2 says:
@g'lena: I still believe that maybe one day they will come for us 

Slave says:
@::knows exactly who has been on her work team for ages past::

G`Lena says:
@::mumbles to herself::  Who am I.... indeed.....  ::turns with anger::  I have been here two years; I am new to this ::points around:: section of our world...

SO_Rosenberg says:
CSO: Yes, but we haven’t got the time... I know..

MO_O`Questra says:
*XO*: in my professional opinion .. no.. but under the current conditions.. yes

G`Lena says:
@::smiles sadly, her anger suddenly gone::  Slave2:  Yes, believe that, if you must.  I have work to do...  ::turns back to her digging::

Slave says:
@::tries to smile:: G'Lena ... two years?  it has been fifteen for me ... and survival is all ...

CSO_Gomes says:
::gets the probe ready and prepares to launch:: XO: The probe is ready on your word

Host XO_Fey says:
*sickbay* Thank you.

G`Lena says:
@::glances aside to Slave:: Then survive.  Dig....

Slave says:
@G'Lena: I left half a crust in the passage over there ... but before I can get back to it ... someone will have eaten ... for this I am grateful ...

G`Lena says:
@::glances over to the guards, to see if they've noticed this discussion, and sees them looking another way::

Slave says:
@::digs::

TO_Peter says:
XO: I would be happy to follow the CTO and Reiley’s plans...if it brings someone back alive

G`Lena says:
@Slave:  Then you belie your own words.... survival is not all....

G`Lena says:
@Slave:  Else you would begrudge that crust of bread...

CEO_Atrides says:
XO: I would like to go too ma'am. I don't care what the plans call for. I'll do it.

Slave says:
@::scowls:: G'Lena ... it is ... if you look beyond your own survival ...

slave2 says:
@g'lena: why  are you so concerned with your work 

CSO_Gomes says:
XO: May I launch the probe now?

OPS_Corillo says:
self: The CEO has a death wish.

G`Lena says:
@::sees a small opportunity, and dislodges a rock with her foot, so that it goes rolling down the hill, towards a guard::

Slave says:
@::growls with hunger at the thought of the bread .... tries to do the mind over matter thing her teacher taught her .... succeeds with difficulty::

OPS_Corillo says:
XO: Perhaps I should be included in the AT to work off some of my.... anxiety?

Host XO_Fey says:
Reiley: Looks like you have a small AT. If the information comes back as favorale, select two volunteers to go with you. ... CSO: Launch probe.

G`Lena says:
@::returns to her work, after seeing her rock barely miss the guard::

slave2 says:
@g'lena: i remember back  before the cardies came  we use to have  fun surely u remember the hand to hand fighting techniques father taught us  

CSO_Gomes says:
XO: Aye  ::launches the probe::

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
SURFACE ACTION: The little rock that G'lena pushed has started into a land-slide downward... the two Cardassian guards below look up, and scream...

SO_Rosenberg says:
::keeps track of the probe::

Slave says:
@::totally focused on ignoring all conversations with anyone .... dreaming of a full table ... with all the delicacies fit for her birthday ... so many years ago::

G`Lena says:
@::gloats to herself, while continuing to work::

Slave says:
@::hears a shriek and ignores it ... the  food is too enticing::

G`Lena says:
@::redoubles her work efforts, to avoid any suggestion she was responsible::

CSO_Gomes says:
SO: Now comes the worse part...waiting for the results...

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
SURFACE ACTION: The two Cardassians go SQUISH, while three other Cardassians rush over to see if they're ok, and two more rush up above to monitor the slaves.

SO_Rosenberg says:
CSO: Yes, I hope we get clear ones and accurate...

G`Lena says:
@::schools her face into stern misery, not showing her inner satisfaction::

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
ACTION: The probe is launched, rushing toward Alterax III.

Slave says:
@::a dislodged rock bounces off her shoulder ... to her head - hitting that nerve that the Vulcans like to press .... she lapses instantly into unconsciousness::

TO_Peter says:
::tracks the probe::

CSO_Gomes says:
XO: we are starting to receive telemetry from the probe now...

G`Lena says:
@:;stops her work, and pulls Slave into the shade of a large rock::

Slave says:
@::out for the count ... her rock drill hammer falls down a rock slide ... hitting:::

Slave says:
@::does not feel herself being pulled ... but is pulled::

FCO_Talac_Zal says:
:: Monitors navigational data making sure there are no vessels once again.::

Host XO_Fey says:
::waits expectantly looking from one to the other on the bridge::

CSO_Gomes says:
::waits::

G`Lena says:
@::with Slave out of sight, in the cooler shade of the rock, realizes there is nothing else she can do for her, so resumes work, nearby, putting her body between the Cardassian guards and the rock::

OPS_Corillo says:
::stands waiting tapping his foot::

CEO_Atrides says:
::keeps his eyes from reviling any emotions, as his face. He mearly centers on a console he is watching.::

SO_Rosenberg says:
::Looks at the black screen, waiting for the results to come in::

G`Lena says:
@::whispers urgently to slave2::  Slave2:  Keep working, harder; they mustn't notice her...

TO_Peter says:
::swivels in his chair::

slave2 says:
@:: pulls out a home made knife :: g'lena: I made this  with  some  scrap metal I found  I’m planning on using it when the  time is  right 

MO_O`Questra says:
::sits in sickbay watching the MCR and sighs as the probe launches::

G`Lena says:
@::hisses::  Slave2:  Put that away!  Be you daft?  In broad daylight???

CSO_Gomes says:
::starts receiving info:: XO: It appears that there are 5 Cardassian life forms just outside the colony...there is a force field...I can not detect ant Gionans

Slave says:
@::dreaming that her family escaped ... and of the reunion party that will happen ,,,, should she live::

FCO_Talac_Zal says:
ALL:  That will mean we need to destroy or shut down the force field before we can rescue anyone.

Slave says:
@::unaware of the cut to her leg that is draining her life force away slowly::

G`Lena says:
@::sees the blood trickling slowly from behind the rock, and wishes she could help::

SO_Rosenberg says:
::sees the data and starts some further analysis::

CSO_Gomes says:
XO: The field is surrounding the colony and it appears that there are eight Cardassian life forms in the colony

Host XO_Fey says:
CTO: What options do we have for getting past that forcefield?

TO_Peter says:
::turns to watch the CTO::

Slave says:
@::in more of a happy situation than she has been for the past 15 years .... dreams .... uninterrupted dreams ....::

CSO_Gomes says:
::looks at the data again… probes made at the lest minute:: XO: The field is a transporter inhibitor of some kind

CEO_Atrides says:
XO/CTO: Take this… it can disrupt the force fields. ::reaches into his pocket, taking out the crossed-wired tricorder device and hands it to the CTO::

Host XO_Fey says:
CSO; Nothing on the Gionans?

G`Lena says:
@::angrily piles ore into her container, furious at her own inabilities to change her own fate::

CTO_Timrok says:
XO: we could bombard it from orbit & wear it down - or send a team down to find out the location of the emitters & destroy them

TO_Peter says:
XO: I would go for the second option

CSO_Gomes says:
XO: Not yet ma'am

SO_Rosenberg says:
::searches in SF database for ways to go around transporter inhibitors::

Slave says:
@::wishing in her dream that she could say a real goodbye to her family ... grateful that the pain is not now::

CTO_Timrok says:
XO: destroy the inhibitors

CTO_Timrok says:
XO: beam them out

CSO_Gomes says:
CTO: How do you propose to do that from here?

slave2 says:
@g'lena: is  this what u want to  be all ure life  sis  a slave  of the  cardassian empire 

CEO_Atrides says:
::stands silent at the edge of the conversation::

G`Lena says:
@::pauses a moment, to wipe sweat from her brow, glancing upward at the hot sun::

Host XO_Fey says:
CTO: Are we in range?

FCO_Talac_Zal says:
CTO:  If we bombard it from orbit they may start killing anyone left in the colony,

CTO_Timrok says:
CSO: can u pinpoint the source of the field?

TO_Peter says:
CSO: transporter inhibitors usually work only ion a small area...we beam down outside the field and knock out the emitters

Slave says:
@::the coagulation platelets come into play ... and the wound stops bleeding:

CSO_Gomes says:
CTO: I'm afraid not

G`Lena says:
@slave2:  No, this is not what I want, but I do not wish to die like that one...  ::gestures towards the rock::  I wish to survive, and overcome, and to do that, we must live.  When the time is right...

OPS_Corillo says:
XO/CTO: That would require a larger AT.

CTO_Timrok says:
CSO: what about from the surface?

CSO_Gomes says:
TO: and if we don't know where the emitters are we can not destroy them

slave2 says:
@g'lena: father  wood be  turning in his  grave

OPS_Corillo says:
XO/CTO:  One team to hit the Cardassians and another for the inhibitors

TO_Peter says:
CSO: we scout around and find them...

G`Lena says:
@:;turns suddenly::  Slave2:  Then attack them!  You are the one with the knife!  See what it gets you!

Host XO_Fey says:
CEO: Thank you for the offer. Hold on to that, it might come in real handy sometime. ... Reiley are you ready to go down? This is a do or do not situation, and we don't have enough people to spare for too much.

FCO_Talac_Zal says:
ALL:  Once on the planet we can find the emitters with tricorders.

CTO_Timrok says:
XO: if we take out the inhibitor at its source we can beam the prisoners directly aboard & avoid a confrontation

CSO_Gomes says:
TO: Well...that would require time we might not have

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
XO: Yes... I am.

slave2 says:
@g'lena: i wood but its not the  right  time  yet 

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
XO: Shouldn't we be going to the armory?

G`Lena says:
@::turns her back, and returns to her work, hurling the rocks into her container, furious::

SO_Rosenberg says:
::hears the CSO and gives the idea some thought::

Slave says:
@::becomes aware of an argument .... is she involved:  Maybe she should be involved:::

Slave says:
@::pain starts again ...:: Groan!

Host XO_Fey says:
Reiley: Select your people. Let's get the prisoners and get out of here.

G`Lena says:
@::continues clunking the chunks of ore, one after another, into the containers::

CSO_Gomes says:
CTO: If the emitters are not hidden...we could find them on the surface...but we still have to get there

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
XO: Which of your crew are willing to go?

G`Lena says:
@::hears the groan, and realizes the other slave is not dead, after all::

OPS_Corillo says:
::steps forward:: XO/Reiley: I am.

TO_Peter says:
Reiley: I am

CSO_Gomes says:
Reiley: If you need me I'll go

CTO_Timrok says:
CSO: getting there is the easy bit

CEO_Atrides says:
Reiley: I'll go too.

G`Lena says:
@::mumbles to herself::  I hope she has the good sense to stay where she is, till she's able to work again::

Slave says:
@::tries to prevent herself from making noises ... being seen or heard is not good news::

CSO_Gomes says:
CTO: It is?

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
::Nods:: XO: I believe I have my team right here, Commander.

Host XO_Fey says:
ALL: This is purely voluntary, remember.

CTO_Timrok says:
::smiles::

MO_O`Questra says:
::senses the bridge attitude and shrugs:: self: that’s just great..

CSO_Gomes says:
XO: Yes we know

slave2 says:
@:: takes away her  tools :: G`Lena: stop for a moment and   listen  to me they can only kill u once and I’m not going to let that happen i made a promise to father  to  protect you and I intend  to keep it or  DIE   trying 

CTO_Timrok says:
::motions the TO aside::

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
TO, CSO, CEO, OPS: Come with me. XO: Move us into orbit of the planet... and beam us just outside of the colony... if you detect the field going down, or us exiting with other life forms... beam us up.

TO_Peter says:
::steps over to Timrok::

G`Lena says:
@::grabs the tools::  Slave2:  Father's dead.  If you want to join him, by all means, continue down this course.  I told you, I intend to survive.

Host XO_Fey says:
ALL: You know the situation. My last order is : /You/ come back alive . Good luck.

Slave says:
@::opens the one eye not gummed down with blood ... sees a figure chucking rocks into a bin :: G'Lena: Not that way ... easier if you heft them ::collapses with the effort of talking::

OPS_Corillo says:
Reiley: Aye, aye.

MO_O`Questra says:
::hits the internal comm.::  *XO*: sir.. I take it you need me?

CTO_Timrok says:
TO ::whispered:: make sure our crew are safe first & foremost

OPS_Corillo says:
XO: Aye ma'am

SO_Rosenberg says:
CSO: Good Luck Ma'am, and please return safely....

CEO_Atrides says:
::nods:: Reiley: Aye

G`Lena says:
@::returns to work::  Slave2:  I suggest you do the same, if you want to live to fight....  The guards will soon notice that your containers are empty....

TO_Peter says:
::whispers:: CTO: no worries sir, ::follows Reiley::

CSO_Gomes says:
Reiley: Aye SO: Take care of things and...if I don't come back...you will be the best replacement

Host Lt_Cmdr_Reiley says:
::Enters into the TL with those who chose to come with him::

G`Lena says:
@::hears Slave, and whispers::  Slave:  Take care of yourself; don't worry about me.

OPS_Corillo says:
::enters TL::

CSO_Gomes says:
::follows Reiley into the TL::

slave2 says:
@G`Lena: its  no use  trying to reason with u  you’re just as stubborn as mom was  i just regret  u didn’t know her better 

Host XO_Fey says:
*sickbay* Any help would be appreciated.

CEO_Atrides says:
::follows Reiley into the TL as well::

SO_Rosenberg says:
CSO: I know you will return....and I will keep the department in tact until you get back ::smiles::

Slave says:

G`Lena says:
@Slave2:  When the time is right, I will act, trust me... and I won't be sitting here waiting on your precious Federation to come to our aid, either!
