MO2_Friedman says:
*FCO*: right.. :: moves off to aide another injured green female::

Host CO_T`sela says:
<Human Female> # ::Smiles:: Ah, there he is.

CIV_Maor says:
Computer: Status of Maor-45684e44c

FCO_Ross-Harison says:
*MO2* Could you do with an extra pair of hands

SO_Carey says:
::smiles slightly, noticing the mutates life signs are stabilizing::

CIV_Maor says:
::Makes notes based on the computer response::

CSO_Gomes says:
::maintains a close check on sensor results::

EO_Farewell says:
CSO: I understand... It could be their mutated signatures are somehow connected to vegetation on the planet...

MO2_Friedman says:
*FCO*: I just sent a group to the holodeck.. who's covering sickbay?

Host CO_T`sela says:
<Elleb Male> # ::Turns and looks over at the D'vor to the side:: What's he doing, anyway ... he's been like that for an hour or two.

TO_Pazoski says:
::taps on the console of his chair and brings up the ships current status reports::

MO_Stricker says:
FCO: ::Smiles:: Thank you.. CIV: Shall we sir?

Host CO_T`sela says:
<Bolian Male> # ::Without looking at the D'vor:: He's feeding on the neural energy that he gathered with his Staff.

TO_Pazoski says:
::drives off towards the holodecks::

CSO_Gomes says:
EO: it is a possibility, some molecules are similar. Try to find out which and filter them off the scanners

FCO_Ross-Harison says:
CIV:  Sick bay is ok they ready need help in the lounge...

SO_Carey says:
*CSO* The life sign of one of the mutates is stable.  She may even be ready to talk soon.

CIV_Maor says:
FCO: Very well, i believe this is your stop then

Host CO_T`sela says:
::Sits in his Ready Room, contemplating all of this. He stares at the photo that he never removed from the desk ... that of the crew on the Pazoskis’ wedding day::

CSO_Gomes says:
*SO*Good work Ensign. Don't let him out of your site

MO_Stricker says:
FCO, CIV: May I help in sickbay...I'm told they need allot of help there.

FCO_Ross-Harison says:
Civ: I was suggest that you take the Ensign to the Lounge...

SO_Carey says:
::administers, some drugs to help the mutate::

SO_Carey says:
*CSO* I won't Ma'am.  How are things up there?

CIV_Maor says:
FCO: I see

CIV_Maor says:
MO: It seems you are coming with me ::leaves the TL::

EO_Farewell says:
CSO: Will do...  we can also check and if we can identify unique molecules within in them...that would make scanning a lot easier...

FCO_Ross-Harison says:
CIV:  As I have sickbay under control... and the sick bay is on deck 12...

Host CO_T`sela says:
<Bolian Male> # ::Lifts his weapon ... making the XO and his team realize that it's not a weapon, but his arm ... his right arm is bionic::

MO_Stricker says:
CIV: Aye sir! ::follows the CIV::

CSO_Gomes says:
*SO* Not much different but we are trying new ideas. I'm still counting on you to give us some hints

CIV_Maor says:
::Begins running to the lounge::

Host CO_T`sela says:
ACTION: More screams are heard in the distance, some of the XO's security team start to get jittery.

Host CO_T`sela says:
ACTION: The Tranquil Nebula is now filled beyond capacity.

FCO_Ross-Harison says:
CIV:  Maor if there is a problem then say something...

CSO_Gomes says:
EO: That’s what I have tried from the beginning. We have been in contact with these mutates for a while now. Their DNA is totally mapped

MO2_Friedman says:
::continues to aid injured.. tripping over bodies:: 

MO_Stricker says:
::Follows the CIV to the lounge::

CIV_Maor says:
::Sees the lounge amazed::

SO_Carey says:
Mutate2: Can you hear me?

MO2_Friedman says:
*BRIDGE* send them to the holodecks!

Host CO_T`sela says:
<Groth> ::Groans as the SO speaks to him::

Host CO_T`sela says:
ACTION: OPS Seppela acknowledges Friedman's order.

FCO_Ross-Harison says:
:: heads down to deck 12::

CIV_Maor says:
::Searches for a MO:: MO: This is Mr. Stricker, he will be helping you

SO_Carey says:
Groth: That's it.  You're safe now.  You're aboard a Starfleet vessel.  Your group was attacked.  Have you any idea who attacked you?

TO_Pazoski says:
::enters the holodeck just as mutates are arriving::

MO2_Friedman says:
::bangs head lightly against the bulkhead as the transports in stop.. grumbles::

CSO_Gomes says:
EO: Four more ...  ::sends them to tranquil nebula for triage::

Host CO_T`sela says:
<Groth> SO: Brutal ... people ... why ... we didn't do ... anything ...

CIV_Maor says:
MO: Mr. Stricker, feel free to help, i will come back shortly

FCO_Ross-Harison says:
::exits and heads back to sick bay::  <SBMO> Report...

Host CO_T`sela says:
ACTION: OPS Seppela re-routes the transport to Holodeck One where a Medical Team has been spared to help out.

SO_Carey says:
Groth: What did they do? Any idea who they were? Where they came from?

CIV_Maor says:
::begins running to the holodecks::

Host CO_T`sela says:
<Groth> ::The SO is asking questions much too fast ... he is having a hard time understanding::

SO_Carey says:
::gives him a hypo containing nutrients to increase his strength::

CSO_Gomes says:
::takes the secondary sensor arrays to find out specific D’vor life signs. Reports say they are down there::

EO_Farewell says:
CSO: Hhhhmm..  I will start on identifying those possible molecules that are interfering with our scans...

Kathryn_DeMeuteuil says:
::Notices the water getting cold so she exits the tub fumbling around in the dark for a big fluffy towel

CSO_Gomes says:
EO: Do that, inform me of results

SO_Carey says:
::realizes Groth's problem and speaks in a much slower tone:: Groth: Do you know who did this to you?

CIV_Maor says:
Computer: Wake up delta team, and give me a list of all the free security teams

FCO_Ross-Harison says:
<SBMO> FCO;  Dr. Ross we have 6 new case the CTO is stable and we are ready to go you just need to scrub up...

EO_Farewell says:
CSO: Understood, Ma’am...

CSO_Gomes says:
::shakes her head in frustration::

CIV_Maor says:
::Enters the holodeck:: TO: What is the situation?

FCO_Ross-Harison says:
SBMO:  Ok lets get going people we have lives to save....

Host CO_T`sela says:
ACTION: The XO's team doubles back, and with the data they have gathered, they move back to their point of transport origin.

Kathryn_DeMeuteuil says:
::Drops the towel to the floor as she finishes drying off before striding into her living quarters, dimly illuminated by the light off the planet below::

EO_Farewell says:
::turns to science 2 console and brings up the recent scan results with the specifications on the Mutants DNA structure::

CSO_Gomes says:
Self: Something very strange is going on down there. Last time I had no readings from life forms I knew were there was with the Vanmanoi ...... and that led to the captain loosing his chair 

TO_Pazoski says:
CIV: We have wounded everywhere, the medical staff are straining to cope, we need to get to a Starbase

CSO_Gomes says:
Self: No, it must be something else. But what?

SO_Carey says:
::tries harder:: Groth: Important...what race...were attackers?

Host CO_T`sela says:
<Groth> SO: Race ... I don't know ... some looked like you ... some did not ...

Kathryn_DeMeuteuil says:
::Sprawls naked on the couch looking at the stars.  She stretches her arms out over her head forgetting the mess in the lounge and onboard, she slowly drifts to sleep::

MO_Stricker says:
::In the lounge::

CSO_Gomes says:
::hopes the SO is making progress::

CSO_Gomes says:
::looks at the EO for a moment ... just came aboard and is already working hard .. must be a syndrome of this ship::

CIV_Maor says:
Computer: wake up *every* medical officer aboard the Elara, medical emergency

Host CO_T`sela says:
ACTION: OPS Seppela announces to the bridge that the XO's team has just beamed back to the Elara.

FCO_Ross-Harison says:
::goes and scrubs up for surgery::  *MO2* I going into surgery now, keep me updated, and Farewell you are all doing a great job

SO_Carey says:
*CSO* I have something.  He says some attackers looked like us and some did not.  I assume he means they're from different races.

Host CO_T`sela says:
<Computer> CIV: All known Medical personnel are currently conscious.

MO_Stricker says:
::tending to a patient in the lounge::

MO2_Friedman says:
*FCO*: aye sir.. 

CSO_Gomes says:
*SO*Yes, that confirms the first away team reports. Try to find out more about them. Where they came. How they attacked. Who are they

SO_Carey says:
Groth:  Weapons?

CIV_Maor says:
::looks annoyed::

EO_Farewell says:
::frowns at the scans of the surface and begins analyzing the surface more closely::

Host CO_T`sela says:
<Groth> SO: Dangerous ... powerful ...

TO_Pazoski says:
CIV: You've had medical training, why dont you help out?

FCO_Ross-Harison says:
:: starts working on the first of many::

CIV_Maor says:
Computer: Do we have any free officers that have a medical background?

SO_Carey says:
*CSO* I don't think he knows who they are.. he's having trouble understanding me.

CIV_Maor says:
TO: I'm trying to gather other people before i will do it, no one else is free to do it

CSO_Gomes says:
EO: We also need to find the attackers. Tell me if you find any non mutate animal life not indigenous to the planet in your search

SO_Carey says:
Groth: Energy weapons?

Host CO_T`sela says:
<Groth> SO: I ... I-I-I-I- ... ::Passes out::

CSO_Gomes says:
*SO*Adjust the universal translator .. maybe it'll be easier that way

MO2_Friedman says:
MO: new huh?

SO_Carey says:
::administers more drugs to Groth::

SO_Carey says:
*CSO* He's just passed out...

EO_Farewell says:
::frowns again and quickly runs a diagnostic program to be sure::

MO_Stricker says:
MO: Yes...is there anything I should know before I keep working on this patient?

FCO_Ross-Harison says:
<Computer>  Give me an open channel to the Mr. Maor.

CSO_Gomes says:
*SO*Understood. Is there any other in condition to speak?

Host CO_T`sela says:
<Computer> CIV: All personnel with medical background are currently on duty.

TO_Pazoski says:
CIV: Just help them, contact the bridge and get them to find all staff with medical training, you can do more good here

Host CO_T`sela says:
<Computer> FCO: Channel open.

SO_Carey says:
::looks over and sees another mutate moving:: *CSO* There may be one.

EO_Farewell says:
::looks up at the CSO::  CSO: Ma’am.....I may have something here....  running a diagnostic to be sure...

CSO_Gomes says:
*SO*Talk to him and let that one rest

CIV_Maor says:
TO: Let's get them to the shuttle bay then, i will lead a team of five medical officers

FCO_Ross-Harison says:
*Civ* this is Cmdr. Ross, I don't want to have to make this an order but why aren't you helping

MO2_Friedman says:
MO: his DNA has been mutated.. think Vulcan aligned medicines and you'll do fine.. for some reason they respond to copper based treatment better

CSO_Gomes says:
::nods to the EO::

CIV_Maor says:
*FCO* I'm heading to the shuttle bay to help out

SO_Carey says:
::hurries over and examines the flesh wound of the mutate:: Mutate3: Do you know about those who attacked you?  ::adjusts the universal translator::

MO_Stricker says:
MO2: I know all about Vulcan type physiology, I'm part Romulan myself...and thank you as well

FCO_Ross-Harison says:
*Civ* Its about time....

TO_Pazoski says:
CIV: Wait until we need to move them, we dont want to stretch our resources too thin too early

FCO_Ross-Harison says:
*Civ* Ross out...

CIV_Maor says:
TO: I will wait to new arrivals there

MO2_Friedman says:
::nods to teh MO:: MO: it's not always like this... it's generally calm..

EO_Farewell says:
::points at the viewscreen::  CSO: As I suspected....our sensor difficulties where intended....

CIV_Maor says:
::Walks away from the holodecks and to the TL::

CSO_Gomes says:
::continues her first scans until the new one's results are confirmed::

CSO_Gomes says:
EO: You mean someone is artificially preventing us to get to the mutates?

SO_Carey says:
::runs the med kit over the mutate's leg healing his injuries::

TO_Pazoski says:
::maneuvers his chair out of the way, having not had much medical training he is kind of useless::

CSO_Gomes says:
::checks the EO's findings::

EO_Farewell says:
CSO: It’s some sort of virus program that is doing this....

CIV_Maor says:
*Bridge* The shuttle bay is now ready to receive patients, i sent a security team there and i will be leading the medical team there

CSO_Gomes says:
EO: A virus .. on the Elara?

Host CO_T`sela says:
ACTION: The XO exits on Deck Two, making his apparent way to the TL on the opposite side of the Deck by the Living Quarters.

FCO_Ross-Harison says:
::watches as the mutate she is working on dies::

EO_Farewell says:
CSO: Indeed...a computer manufactured virus...and it seems as it programmed to disrupt our sensors whenever ordered....

CIV_Maor says:
::Enters the TL with a security team and two MOs::

Kathryn_DeMeuteuil says:
::Is roused from her near-slumber as her door chime goes off::

SO_Carey says:
::fiddles with the universal translator again:: Mutate3: How were you attacked?

CSO_Gomes says:
EO: That’s your department .. find out how it got here and how we can take it out

Host CO_T`sela says:
ACTION: The Mutate just mumbles something incoherent as the SO asks her questions.

CIV_Maor says:
TL: Shuttle bay

CSO_Gomes says:
*CIV* Understood, I'll beam the newcomers there .. as soon as I find them

Kathryn_DeMeuteuil says:
Door:  Come in..... ::Feeling the light from the corridor wash over her nude body she smiles as she observes the silhouette in her door::

MO2_Friedman says:
::moves on to aide the injured::

CSO_Gomes says:
*CO*: According to the new EO's findings, a virus was introduced on the ships computer and is interfering with sensors

EO_Farewell says:
::begins tracking the virus’ log record to identify who gave those orders::  CSO: I’m trying to track who has been using this program now...

Kathryn_DeMeuteuil says:
Man:  Well Well Well Commander..... Do come in... I've been waiting for you Lover.

FCO_Ross-Harison says:
::steps back and walk to the other OR::

CSO_Gomes says:
::detects five more injured and beams them to Maor's shuttle bay::

SO_Carey says:
::sighs and continues healing the injured::

CIV_Maor says:
Computer: Start program Maor4564

CIV_Maor says:
::Leaves the TL and spreads the security teams around::

CSO_Gomes says:
*SO*Any luck?

Kathryn_DeMeuteuil says:
::Chuckles as the Man enters her quarters and the doors shut behind him, again plunging her room into near darkness::

Host CO_T`sela says:
::Is shaken from his thought by the comm. from the CSO:: *CSO* I see. Have him investigate and deliver a full report to me later. Concentrate on helping the mutates for now.

FCO_Ross-Harison says:
::starts working on another mutate::

CSO_Gomes says:
EO: Continue ... Although I wonder how anyone could have sabotaged this ship

CIV_Maor says:
::He runs to the wall, and grabs a medical kit from there, he takes the medical tricorder out and begins scanning the new comers::

EO_Farewell says:
::digging through the virus’ logs, trying to determine the access points::

CSO_Gomes says:
*CO*Understood sir, I am already on it

SO_Carey says:
*CSO* I have not been able to find out anything useful.

TO_Pazoski says:
::sits quietly in the corner going over the ships status reports::

SO_Carey says:
*CSO* I am under the impression this attack came as a total surprise to the mutates and they know very little about it.

EO_Farewell says:
::looks up at the CSO::  CSO: It shouldn’t be too hard Ma’am....especially with all the commotion on the ship...

CIV_Maor says:
::Saves a mutant and moves to the next one::

CSO_Gomes says:
*SO*Understood, what about the injuries, did you find anything new on your scans?

FCO_Ross-Harison says:
<Computer> Open a channel to the CSO

EO_Farewell says:
::sees three different locations pop up on the screen and looks in amazement::  CSO: Ma’am....you better look at this....cause this is bad...  ::looks worried::

SO_Carey says:
*CSO* Negative, ma'am.

CIV_Maor says:
Self: this one is too much for me with no proper medical equipment

CSO_Gomes says:
EO: Perhaps, but it would have to be someone of this ship with access to computer ... only Starfleet officers can do that. Could we have a traitor?

FCO_Ross-Harison says:
*CSO* Alex get Carey to use my data base files what ever you need should be in there...

CIV_Maor says:
*FCO* I'm beaming one to the sickbay, i have no choice

Host CO_T`sela says:
ACTION: The XO finally arrives on the bridge.

CSO_Gomes says:
::looks at the EO’s findings:: EO: What is it?

Host CO_T`sela says:
ACTION: He moves around the bridge to the CSO & EO, and inquires, "Where is the Captain, I have a report on the Attackers."

CIV_Maor says:
::Beams the patient to the sickbay::

CSO_Gomes says:
*FCO* Thank you Jo, I hope it works, I am running out of ideas to find the mutates

FCO_Ross-Harison says:
*Civ* Ok I am sure that Ensign Smith will be able to take care of it.....

SO_Carey says:
Self: Thank goodness I never went down the medical track.

CSO_Gomes says:
XO: The captain is in his RR ...

Kathryn_DeMeuteuil says:
::Pulls on her robe as she rises.  Its been a few minutes since he left and she was still smiling and tingling::

Host CO_T`sela says:
ACTION: The XO notes the expression on the EO & CSO's faces, "What's wrong?" he asks.

CSO_Gomes says:
*SO*Access Commander Harison's database, she has useful information

SO_Carey says:
*CSO* Even with the adjustments to the universal translator.  They're incoherent at best.

SO_Carey says:
*CSO* Aye Ma'am.  I'll get to it.

EO_Farewell says:
::points at the screen::  CSO: It appears that virus control was accessed at three different locations... The CO’s Ready Room, CO’s quarters and the command chair on the bridge....

FCO_Ross-Harison says:
*CSO* Alex there maybe some area's that you can't get into.... I have to send you my clearance...

CSO_Gomes says:
::opens her mouth and gulps:: EO: What??

CIV_Maor says:
::Moves to the next one, he begins scanning him as well::

Host CO_T`sela says:
ACTION: The XO looks confused, and turns to the EO, "What are you talking about?"

CSO_Gomes says:
XO: You better look at this

SO_Carey says:
::leaves the mutates and wanders over to the nearest terminal and pulls up the info from Cmdr Harrison's database::

CSO_Gomes says:
*FCO*Can you work directly with the SO in sickbay?

CIV_Maor says:
*CSO* Are there any more mutants?

Host CO_T`sela says:
ACTION: The XO looks at the data stream, then looks at them both, "You're suggesting that Captain T'sela is responsible for ... this?"

EO_Farewell says:
XO/CSO: I will run a authentication program on it, but it appears our CO has been using this virus for an unknown purpose...

FCO_Ross-Harison says:
*CSO* Sure...

CSO_Gomes says:
XO: Sir ... according to this .. the captain sabotaged our computer, so that we could not use sensors properly

SO_Carey says:
*CSO* I'm on my way to sickbay Ma'am.

CSO_Gomes says:
EO: do it

CSO_Gomes says:
XO: This is serious .. very serious ...

SO_Carey says:
::wanders out of the lounge as quickly as possible and to the nearest TL::

SO_Carey says:
Computer: Sickbay

CSO_Gomes says:
::detects 5 more injured on the surface and beams to Maor’s location::

EO_Farewell says:
CSO: Aye, Ma’am...  ::loads the authentication program from the ME´s database and runs it on the virus’ log file::

FCO_Ross-Harison says:
*SO* this is going to hard but what I can do its set you up in the medical lab and I get you in to the restricted files...

CSO_Gomes says:
*CIV* They are coming in as I detect them .... But ... can you report to the bridge for a second?

SO_Carey says:
*FCO* Aye ma'am. I'm on my way.

Host CO_T`sela says:
ACTION: The XO frowns ... deeply shocked by this, his usual morals rising to the surface, "I ... we ... Commander, keep this to yourself and Mr. ..." turns to look at the EO, not sure of who he is, " ... for the time being. Try to gather more data ... I want to be absolutely sure it's the CO before confronting him on it."

SO_Carey says:
::hurries out of the TL and into sickbay::  FCO: I'm here at last.  I only hope this works.

EO_Farewell says:
::nods at the XO::  XO: Aye, Commander...

CSO_Gomes says:
::nods to the XO:: XO: we must be careful .. very careful

FCO_Ross-Harison says:
::Saves the life of this mutate:: ::walks out into main sickbay::  SO: So do I...

CMO_Zaris says:
::wakes up in a cold sweat.. looking around the room in a panic.. screams as the medical officer falls off the chair he was sitting in.. screams something in a mix of klingon and that weird language again before starting at the dark ceiling and whimpering::

CIV_Maor says:
*CSO* My team can handle this, I’m on my way

CIV_Maor says:
::Runs to the TL::

CIV_Maor says:
::Enters the TL:: TL: bridge

CIV_Maor says:
::Exits the TL and enters the bridge::

CIV_Maor says:
CSO: What is it?

Host CO_T`sela says:
ACTION: The XO still is in some shock, "Yes ..."
