Host Admiral_Poli says:
ACTION: Maor notices a shadow move out of the corner of his eye, but when he turns to see it, there will be nothing there. No one else notices this.

ACTION: Maor notices another shadow move out of the corner of his eye again.

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
:: takes her station::

OPS_Seppela says:
::walks over to OPS, looking down at Maor:: CIV: Umm, commander, if you don't mind?

EO_Farewell says:
::sees the Admiral and Lieutenant Nayiza beam away and nods at the Captain's comment::

CMO_Zaris says:
CO: sir.. looks like Medical Officer Striker was reassigned..

CIV_Maor says:
::Raises from his seat, he turns back:: Self: What is going on?

CNS_Pazoski says:
Self: Same crew yet not the same. ::walks over to Peter::

Host CO_David says:
::as he begins to walk away:: CNS: Welcome back, Lieutenant.

SO_Ruskinara says:
::watches Maor wondering what's causing his distress::

OPS_Seppela says:
::sits down as Maor walks away mumbling::

CNS_Pazoski says:
::turning back, smiles:: CO: Thank you.

Host CO_David says:
CMO: Oh?

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: He finally sees what is moving out of the corner of his eye, three robed & hooded figures, shrouded in darkness are hovering at the back of the bridge. No one but Maor can see them. None of the telepaths can even sense them.

CMO_Zaris says:
::hands the CO the Padd::

CSO_Gomes says:
::follows Maor:: CIV: For better or for worse I have begun to read your behavior. is something wrong?

CIV_Maor says:
All: What is that?! ::Steps back::

TO_Pazoski says:
::sees Kezia approach, battles for words:: CNS: Kezia...

SO_Ruskinara says:
::looks over to Maor:: CIV: What is it?

CTO_Timrok says:
::goes to TAC, turning to the XO on the way:: XO: Sir, you wanted to speak to me about something?

CNS_Pazoski says:
::smiles:: TO: Peter, I am sorry that once again you have had no warning of my movements.

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The hovering beings slowly make their way toward Maor.

OPS_Seppela says:
::spins around as Maor shouts out, but sees nothing::

CIV_Maor says:
::Gets out his phaser, he points at the creature:: Creature: Stay back!

CSO_Gomes says:
CIV: What is what?

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: All the rest of the crew see is Maor waving a phaser crazily.

CMO_Zaris says:
CO: looks like I will be requesting new staff at the next stop.. eh.. what’s going on?

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The hovering triodo not halt their movements.

CSO_Gomes says:
CIV: What are you pointing that thing at?

CNS_Pazoski says:
::turns and blinks at the CIV:: Self: Nice to know some people never change.

OPS_Seppela says:
::frowns at Maor, crazy guy he is::

SO_Ruskinara says:
CIV: Maor put that down...

TO_Pazoski says:
::shrugs:: CNS: I’m getting used to it, I mean after all I’m only your husband ::turns to see what Maor is going on about::

CIV_Maor says:
CSO: Don't you see them?

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The apparent lead figure speaks, it is a voice he recognizes ... "Maor, put the weapon away." No one else hears the voice.

EO_Farewell says:
::turns to Maor as he hears him shouting and waving with his phaser::

Host CO_David says:
::looks over at Maor:: CIV: Commander is there something wrong?

CSO_Gomes says:
CIV: See who?

CTO_Timrok says:
::turns to see Maor::

CMO_Zaris says:
::rubs her head.. and leans back in the XO's chair::

CIV_Maor says:
::Puts down his phaser:: Self: No.. not again, this can't be happening to me

SO_Ruskinara says:
::watches Maor with worry:: CIV: Please put that phaser down!

CSO_Gomes says:
CMO: Do you have your tricorder? Maor seams to be hallucinating

CNS_Pazoski says:
::whispers:: TO: Unfortunately duty calls us both once again, I think we have a lot of catching up to do later.

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The remaining junior crew on the bridge looks blankly at the Starfleet Intelligence officer.

Host CO_David says:
::looks over to Timrok, suggesting that he should be ready to jump Maor::

CIV_Maor says:
::Falls to his knees:: Self: I can't handle this again..

CSO_Gomes says:
::gets her station and scans the bridge for life forms other than the crew::

CMO_Zaris says:
CSO: no.. but you can use the internal bridge sensors..

CTO_Timrok says:
:::moves over behind Maor::

CNS_Pazoski says:
::head to the CIV::

Host XO_Wall says:
CTO: ay yes, I would like to add additional security measure, to assure myself or other do not get kidnapped like I was

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
Civ: Put the phaser down...Maor ::get up ready to jump Maor for the phaser::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The hovering trio come to Maor's side, the lead one puts his hand down on Maor's shoulder. "We are not here to harm you ..."

EO_Farewell says:
::moves closer to the CIV, cautiously::

CSO_Gomes says:
CMO: I'm on it .. I was just wondering about Mr. Maor's medical condition

CMO_Zaris says:
*Med Team*: have 2 medical personnel report to the bridge.. and bring the sedatives

TO_Pazoski says:
::nods:: CNS: Later then ::looks puzzled at Maor, ready to go for his phaser::

OPS_Seppela says:
::watches everyone inch towards Maor...subtle guys::

CSO_Gomes says:
All: internal sensors don't report anything unusual

CMO_Zaris says:
CSO: i have someone coming

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The two others look side to side at the gathering crew. The lead person does not notice.

SO_Ruskinara says:
::senses Maor's increasing distress and puts a hand on his shoulder::

CSO_Gomes says:
::nods to the CMO::

Host XO_Wall says:
::stops and wonders what is going on::

CIV_Maor says:
Old one: You said I still have time..

CMO_Zaris says:
<Med Tech> ::enter the bridge and wait::

SO_Ruskinara says:
Self: What now?

Host CO_David says:
CSO: Are you sure?  Run a neurological scan on Maor.

CSO_Gomes says:
::watches Maor as he talks into ... the air::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The lead one responds, "Time grows short for everyone. We must have a discussion with you and one other ..."

CSO_Gomes says:
CO: Dr Zaris has already sent for a medical team to do that

CNS_Pazoski says:
::bends down next to Maor:: CIV: Maor?

CMO_Zaris says:
::gets up with some labor in her movements and takes the medical kit from one of them.. runs a scan on Maor::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The lead one stands, the nods to the other two and then ... all three seemingly waver into existence before the rest of the crew, they can see and hear them now.

CIV_Maor says:
Old One: I was expecting that much ::Ignores the crew::

SO_Ruskinara says:
::blinks and takes a step back::

Host CO_David says:
::nods:: CIV: Commander Maor, can you hear me?

CMO_Zaris says:
::looks up as the tricorder sudden adds three life forms::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The Leader of the Old Ones addresses the crew, "Do not be afraid. We are not here to harm you."

TO_Pazoski says:
::has to stop himself from drawing his phaser, he waits::

CSO_Gomes says:
::looks at the strange appearances and blinks::

CIV_Maor says:
CO: I'm here, Sir.

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
::Oh great::

CSO_Gomes says:
::checks internal sensors::

CNS_Pazoski says:
::looks at the visitors confused::

Host CO_David says:
::eyes almost pop out of his head:: CTO: Intruder alert.

CIV_Maor says:
::Gets up from the floor, he turns around to face the crew::

SO_Ruskinara says:
::hopes nothing bad is going to happen now::

CNS_Pazoski says:
::gets up and moves back towards the CO::

EO_Farewell says:
::suddenly sees 3 beings appear on the bridge and steps back::

CMO_Zaris says:
CSO: well that answers that question

Host CO_David says:
Leader: Who are you and what are you doing on my ship?

SO_Ruskinara says:
::frowns as the she realizes the voice of the Leader sounds like Aran.. but she can't see his face::

CTO_Timrok says:
::hears the voice:: *Security* Intruder alert, send a security team to the bridge at the double

CSO_Gomes says:
CMO: Indeed

CMO_Zaris says:
::runs a medical scan on the aliens on the bridge::

CIV_Maor says:
CO,CTO: There is no need to sound the intruder alert, they mean us no harm ::Sighs::

OPS_Seppela says:
::turns to his console and sets up a program, ready to erect a forcefield around the three of them if need be::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The Leader responds, "We are here to speak to two of your senior officers, Captain. I apologize for the intrusion."

SO_Ruskinara says:
Self: Aran.. no..

CSO_Gomes says:
CO/CTO: Sensors can not get a clear reading from them .. it seams they are using a sort of cloaking device

CTO_Timrok says:
::pulls his phaser in one hand::

Host CO_David says:
::eyes dart between the CIV, CTO, and the creature:: Leader: You still haven’t told me who you are.

CMO_Zaris says:
CSO: or they might be occupying 2 phases of space at once.. do a multi-phasic scan

Host XO_Wall says:
::motions to the crew to at ease::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The Leader and the two others pull back their hoods to reveal that they are humanoid, however their skin is transparent, showing an elaborate network of glowing neural lesions. There seem to be no internal organs at all. Their eyes and mouth are normal, and their bones cannot be seen.

CTO_Timrok says:
::moves over to TAC ::

SO_Ruskinara says:
::watches speechless and confused::

CSO_Gomes says:
::nods to the CMO and does a multiphasic scan of the aliens::

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
::stands easy and waits::

CIV_Maor says:
CO: Sir, meet the Old Ones

Host Aran says:
CO: I am Aran, and we are the Aegis. Commander Maor knows us as the "Old Ones."

CNS_Pazoski says:
::quietly stands listening and also taking her time to figure out the changes in the crew since she was last onboard::

CMO_Zaris says:
::takes her seat back in the XO's chair and listens::

SO_Ruskinara says:
Aran: Aran.. what.. ::blinks too shocked to say anymore::

CSO_Gomes says:
CMO: No results from the multiphasic scan

Host XO_Wall says:
::looks at Maor briefly then back to the "leader"::

CIV_Maor says:
::Looks surprised at the SO:: SO: You know him?!

SO_Ruskinara says:
CIV: He looks different...so different.. ::gasps::

Host Aran says:
CO: Captain, I request a conference with Commander Maor and Doctor Zaris ... please.

CSO_Gomes says:
::looks at the SO:: SO: Who is he?

CMO_Zaris says:
::looks at the SO.. she is feeling lost, and is that affection?::

SO_Ruskinara says:
CSO: A...::pauses:: friend.

EO_Farewell says:
::looks at the CIV and SO as they seem to recognize them::  CSO: Any clue on what's going on Ma'am...?

Host CO_David says:
::relaxes slightly:: Aran:  I see they both seem to know you.  You can't seriously expect me to allow you to be alone on the ship with two people.

CMO_Zaris says:
::blinks at her being brought into this::

CSO_Gomes says:
EO: Apparently they have a cloaking device so sensors can not scan them

Host Aran says:
CO: Your Doctor does not, but Lieutenant Ruskinara knows me ... from a long time ago.

CMO_Zaris says:
::stands:: Aran: what do I have to do with this?

CSO_Gomes says:
SO: I suppose that’s a good thing ... can we trust them?

CTO_Timrok says:
CO: we can have a security team with them sir

SO_Ruskinara says:
Aran: You look different.

Host Aran says:
CMO: I will explain all in due time. CO: Security may follow us, although it is highly unnecessary. The Doctor means much to us, as does Maor. We would not harm them.

SO_Ruskinara says:
CSO: Well I trust Aran with my life.. but I don't know about his organization.

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
CO; Sir I have a feeling that it will be OK.... I don't think they want to harm them

EO_Farewell says:
::nods and glances at the three men again::  CSO: That would be my first guess.... although they may have been altered or so to look like....uhm... this... whatever it is...

CMO_Zaris says:
::tilts head and then goes pale:: Aran: this is about that thing in me isn't it

CIV_Maor says:
CO: Sir, trust me. We can be left alone with them ::Turns to look at the SO::

CSO_Gomes says:
EO:I suppose

Host Aran says:
CMO: You have a child in you Doctor, one might take offense that you refer to it as a "thing."

SO_Ruskinara says:
::feels slightly lost, slightly worried::

SO_Ruskinara says:
::wonders just how much Aran knows.. about everything::

Host CO_David says:
::turns to the SO:: Aran: Alright, you may meet with them.  But you are to remain in one area of the ship and an armed escort will be with you at all times.  If you try to over power them, I will decompress the room.

Host Aran says:
::Nods:: CMO & CIV: To the Conference Room? ::Hovers with the two others in that direction::

CMO_Zaris says:
::rubs head:: Aran: definitions regardless.. 

CSO_Gomes says:
CO: That will kill the crew too ...

CMO_Zaris says:
::walks to the CR and waits at the door::

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
::smiles:: CMO: I know what you mean sometimes it does feel like you got a thing inside you...I got three remember...

CIV_Maor says:
::Begins following them with a blank stare::

Host Aran says:
::Floats into the Conference Room::

EO_Farewell says:
::frowns at the Captain's comment::  Self: That is a bit drastic...decompressing...?

Host CO_David says:
CSO: I know....but a few people is better then seven hundred.

SO_Ruskinara says:
::watches them trying to fight her inner worry::

Host Aran says:
<Lt. Cmdr. Friedman> *CMO* Doctor Zaris?

Host CO_David says:
::motions for security to follow them::

CMO_Zaris says:
FCO: I didn't want this.. ::sighs and goes in the room.. feeling a bit ill from the CO's words::

CSO_Gomes says:
::nods to the CO not really agreeing with such extreme measures::

CIV_Maor says:
::Turns back and stares at the SO before he enters:: Self: Some thing is wrong

Host Aran says:
::Hovers with the other two at the beginning of the table::

CMO_Zaris says:
*Friedman*: yes what is it..

CSO_Gomes says:
SO: Do you have any idea of what this person may want with them?

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
CMO:  I know and I understand I am the only one that does... OK... go find out all you can...

Host Aran says:
ACTION: The CIV's eye contact with the SO is cut off as the doors swish shut.

SO_Ruskinara says:
::averts her gaze from Maor.. hoping he doesn't find anything out::

CIV_Maor says:
::Turns to look at Aran:: Aran: Well?

Host Aran says:
<Lt. Cmdr. Friedman> *CMO* Doctor, I know you might be busy as you're on the bridge, but something abnormal is occurring with Courtney Harison down here in Sickbay.

SO_Ruskinara says:
CSO: I'm afraid I don't ::sigh:: He is very quiet about his work.

CMO_Zaris says:
*Friedman* abnormal? explain..

Host Aran says:
::Listens to the Doctor's comm.::

CSO_Gomes says:
::nods:: SO:I hope they are safe

CIV_Maor says:
Aran: You made a promise that I still have time..

CTO_Timrok says:
:turns to the SO:: SO: what do you know about these beings?

SO_Ruskinara says:
CSO: He wouldn't harm them.

Host Aran says:
CIV: I made that promise when you did still have time.

SO_Ruskinara says:
::wishes she knew what was going on::

CNS_Pazoski says:
::conversations with Maor are repeating themselves in her mind::

Host Aran says:
<Lt. Cmdr. Friedman> *CMO* I'm not sure, she seems to be emitting another set of brain waves ... and her eyes ...

Host CO_David says:
::frowns, grinding his teeth for a moment::  CTO: Stand down from intruder alert.  Keep security posted at all critical junctions.

CMO_Zaris says:
::looks at Aran:: Aran: friend of yours?

CSO_Gomes says:
SO: Keep an active scan on the room they are in

CTO_Timrok says:
::nods to the CO & deactivates the alert::

Host Aran says:
<Lt. Cmdr. Friedman> *CMO* We're going to call down her mother, she's a Doctor, yes, but she might be too emotionally involved to help out, ma'am ...

OPS_Seppela says:
::sitting at OPS, looking busy::

SO_Ruskinara says:
CSO: Aye Ma'am. ::goes over to her console and sets up a scan::

Host Aran says:
CMO: We have nothing to do with the Harison child.

CIV_Maor says:
::Still standing there, he's unsure of what to say::

CMO_Zaris says:
*Friedman*: I'm coming.. call Jo if you need to.. 

CSO_Gomes says:
::stares at the closed door::

EO_Farewell says:
::moves back to his console as he wonders what those three men are doing on the Elara and what their business is with the CMO and CIV::

Host Aran says:
CMO: Johanna Ross can handle this on her own. We wish to speak to you now.

CMO_Zaris says:
*Friedman*: call Jo.. I can't leave this meeting..

Host Aran says:
<Lt. Cmdr. Friedman> *FCO* Commander Ross?

CIV_Maor says:
Aran: Well, go on then

SO_Ruskinara says:
CTO: I know nothing about them sir. I know Aran but not the Aegis

Host Aran says:
CMO: You were correct in assuming that this is because of your child ...

CMO_Zaris says:
::sits back down and looks at the table::

CNS_Pazoski says:
::walks over to her seat and sits down her mind waiting for any shift in the CIV's emotions which would concern her::

CTO_Timrok says:
SO: who is Aran?

CMO_Zaris says:
Aran: nothing else about me is important.. 

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
*Friedman* Ross here....Go a head...

SO_Ruskinara says:
CTO: He was my instructor at the academy.

Host CO_David says:
CNS: Anything?

CMO_Zaris says:
::looks at Maor and holds her arms::

CSO_Gomes says:
::walks up to the CNS:: CNS: It seams you picked an interesting time to come aboard ::smiles but then her smile fades as she looks at the closed door:: 

Host Aran says:
<Lt. Cmdr. Friedman> *FCO* Ma'am, your daughter has been brought to Sickbay due to the fact she seems to have been rendered into a coma-like state. We've scanned her and found a new brain-wave imprint, her body seems to be undergoing some sort of metamorphosis as well ...

CTO_Timrok says:
SO: he's Starfleet?

CIV_Maor says:
::Looks at the CMO, unsure of what to do::

CSO_Gomes says:
::notices the SO speaking:: SO: He is a Starfleet officer?

SO_Ruskinara says:
CTO: It's complicated sir.. he held the rank of Admiral at one time.. ::looks at the floor uncomfortably::

CNS_Pazoski says:
CO: Nothing to worry about yet sir, well not from Maor, but there is something else here.

Host CO_David says:
::ears perk up as he hears Friedman talk::

EO_Farewell says:
::hears the SO's comment and wonders about this Aran person::

Host Aran says:
Both of them: Maor, when we took you some time ago, we initially sent you back with the intent for you to subconsciously monitor your vessel, and the events it would be drawn into.

CNS_Pazoski says:
CSO: As I recall times were often interesting on this ship ::smiles::

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
::turns a white at what Friedman says:: *Friedman* On my way

SO_Ruskinara says:
::feels the attention of the crew on her::

CTO_Timrok says:
SO: this is no time to be holding anything back Lt

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
CO: Permission to go to sickbay...

CIV_Maor says:
::Sighs:: Aran: Syn Tech..

Host Aran says:
Both of them: We did this because of what we believe ... what we know is going to happen ... we had to know the details ... we had to know the facts ...

CMO_Zaris says:
::puts a hand on her stomach and sighs.. closing her eyes and listening to Aran.. but also the panic and emotions of confusion on the bridge::

CSO_Gomes says:
CNS: Indeed they are. You missed a  lot and we missed you. I'm only sorry counselor Nayiza left like that

Host Aran says:
Both of them: Syn Tech is irrelevant, it has nothing to do with what I am speaking about.

SO_Ruskinara says:
All: He helped me when I was sick. .he came to me in my state and helped me stay alive.. ::frown:: I don't know much...he said they thought he was dead

CNS_Pazoski says:
CSO: Do your scans show anything other than these strangers on board, I mean anything which does not fit into place here?

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
::stands up and heads to the TL not even waiting for the Captain reply::

Host XO_Wall says:
::receives PADDs from a couple of junior officers, standard ship matters::

Host CO_David says:
::turns to her:: FCO: Granted.  Find out what’s going on.

CSO_Gomes says:
CNS: I didn't see anything but then again I wasn't looking

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
CO: David I will you need to be there too....

CMO_Zaris says:
Aran: then what is this related too?

CSO_Gomes says:
::goes back to her station and runs a ship wide scan::

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
::enters the TL and heads to sickbay::

CTO_Timrok says:
::enters the ships database & begins looking up the record for  Aran::

Host XO_Wall says:
CTO: what type of lifeforms are these? can you tell?

CNS_Pazoski says:
::chuckles and follows the CSO to her station:: CSO: Don't be sorry she seemed happy with the change of staff. I have missed our talks.

OPS_Seppela says:
::looks down at his console, he doesn't really have anything to do, having got all his paperwork done before being summoned by the Captain, and there isn't that much an Operations officer can do while a ship is sitting in dry-dock::

Host CO_David says:
::turns to the FCO, doesn't want to leave the bridge, but doesn't want to stay::

Host Aran says:
Both of them: Eventually, we determined that our futures were very bleak ... many, many worlds are going to be shunted into a dark age. We wish to bring them out of that. Which brings us to your child ... we used your genetic material, with some modifications, to impregnate Doctor Zaris ...

CSO_Gomes says:
::shakes her head:: CNS: Sensors don't show anything unusual

SO_Ruskinara says:
::sighs and monitors her console::

Host CO_David says:
XO: You have the bridge Commander.  I'll be in sickbay.  Inform me of any change immediately.  ::heads for the TL::

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
Self: Please don't let anything happen to my baby

Host XO_Wall says:
CO: aye sir

CIV_Maor says:
Aran: What did you say?

CMO_Zaris says:
::raises an eyebrow and stands:: Aran: uh hu.. and why did you pick me?

SO_Ruskinara says:
::mentally tries to sense Aran, feeling pretty useless right now::

Host Aran says:
CMO: Your genetic material had no flaws.

Host CO_David says:
::enters the TL:: TL: Sickbay.

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
:;arrives in sickbay:: Friedman: What happened?

CNS_Pazoski says:
::every so often she checks on Maor’s emotions but still something bothers her::

CTO_Timrok says:
XO: negative sir ::frowns::

CMO_Zaris says:
Aran: that’s a surprise considering..

CNS_Pazoski says:
CSO: Are you sure.. ::pauses:: I am sorry of course you are sure. I just sense something else. ::shakes her head looking puzzled::

Host Aran says:
ACTION: Upon arriving in Sickbay, the CO & FCO find their daughter, Courtney sitting and staring blankly from a bio-bed. She is deathly pale ... however, her eyes have turned a golden hue ... both instantly recognize the look.

CIV_Maor says:
Aran: Does that make me.. the father? ::Seems shocked::

CSO_Gomes says:
CNS: Do you know exactly what you sense?

Host Aran says:
CIV: In a way, yes.

Host XO_Wall says:
CTO: well there seems to be no threat, but keep tactical monitoring

Host CO_David says:
::walks into sickbay, his jaw drops half open::

CMO_Zaris says:
::looks at Maor then back at the Alien looking humanoid::\

CNS_Pazoski says:
::shakes her head:: CSO: Nothing I know of but something that does not fit on this ship. It is not the old ones, I can't even notice them or feel them onboard.

CIV_Maor says:
::Falls down at a chair:: Self: Yet another failure in my life ::Sighs::

CMO_Zaris says:
CIV: oh thanks..

CTO_Timrok says:
XO: call me paranoid sir but when three strangers get on board undetected & our sensors cant even pick them up - i feel threatened

CIV_Maor says:
CMO: It's not that..

CIV_Maor says:
::Sighs:: CMO: It goes deeper then that

EO_Farewell says:
::logs into his console and begins looking over some recent repair reports::

SO_Ruskinara says:
::frowns as she works sensing Maor's sudden low mood::

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
:;walks over to where her daughter is:: Friedman: tricorder....

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
::feels drawn to her daughter::

CMO_Zaris says:
CIV: you shouldn't be concerned.. this wasn't consensual.. I'm sure Mir will understand..

CNS_Pazoski says:
::feels Maor's depression, but is not overly concerned, it is panic or fear which would make her react::

Host Aran says:
<Lt. Cmdr. Friedman> ::Looks at the FCO, and hands her a tricorder::

CTO_Timrok says:
XO: they say they dont mean any harm to the CMO & CIV, but what if they change there minds?

CSO_Gomes says:
::nods to the CNS and then looks at her console:: CNS:I  know the feeling

CMO_Zaris says:
Aran: so now what

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
::sets the tricorder to the setting that picks up the entity::

Host CO_David says:
Friedman: How long has she been like this?

Host Aran says:
Both of them: We originally planned to wait until the baby's birth to make our appearance, but our calculations indicate that time grows short ... that the baby will be in danger. You must come with us Jan Zaris.

Host Aran says:
<Lt. Cmdr. Friedman> CO: According to the babysitter, sir, for about fifteen minutes.

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
::scans herself first then her Daughter::

Host Aran says:
::Blinks slightly at the mention of Mireille ... but says nothing of it::

Host XO_Wall says:
CTO: i understand, but we do not act on impulse, you can take some security procedures, but lets not make them feel threatened by us.

CMO_Zaris says:
Aran: what! ::stands:: 

CNS_Pazoski says:
::Maor has been safe for long enough she nods to the CSO and returns to her seat, focusing on this thing::

Host Aran says:
::The other two Aegis look a bit frightened at her movements ... more so about the baby's safety than her own::

Host CO_David says:
Friedman: Where are my other children?

CTO_Timrok says:
XO: Impulsiveness is not in my nature ::looks offended::

Host Aran says:
<Lt. Cmdr. Friedman> CO: They're being watched after sir, none of them have these symptoms.

CIV_Maor says:
::Notices some thing is really wrong now:: Self: They seem to know each other? ::Turns to look at the door::

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
self: Now there his children....

CSO_Gomes says:
SO: What is the condition of the life signs of the CMO and CIV?

CMO_Zaris says:
::thinks about what’s happening in sickbay::

SO_Ruskinara says:
::scans over the life sign:: CSO: Normal at present, Ma'am.

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
:;walks closer to Courtney:: Courtney: Sweetheart is Ok his not going to hurt you.....

CSO_Gomes says:
::nods to the SO;::

CIV_Maor says:
::Waits::

CMO_Zaris says:
::watches the aliens and feels like a pawn yet again::

Host XO_Wall says:
CTO: Timrok, understood no mean for offense I seen it on your expression.

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
CO: David read the tricorder readings will you...

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
::hand it back to David::

EO_Farewell says:
::taps his commbadge:: *Daniels*: Farewell to Daniels, please respond...

Host Aran says:
CMO: If you remain here, you will surely die ... and the baby will die with you. We cannot allow that.

Host CO_David says:
::nods slightly, and takes the tricorder, begins taking readings::

SO_Ruskinara says:
::sighs getting a sick feeling in her stomach::

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
Friedman: Open my medical records and you find what is wrong with my daughter...

CMO_Zaris says:
Aran: so I becomes your pawn like I was for the Tidnary.. 

EO_Farewell says:
<Daniels>  *EO*: Daniels here, Sir...

CSO_Gomes says:
::notices the SO face changing a bit:: SO: Is something wrong?

CTO_Timrok says:
XO: I assure you i...... ::stops himself then turns to his station & pushes a few keys::

Host XO_Wall says:
CTO: keep me posted

SO_Ruskinara says:
CSO: I just feel something is wrong.. :;frowns::.. nothing too serious.  There's a lot of worry coming from that room.

Host Aran says:
::A brief look of surprise comes across his face:: CMO: The Tidnary ... how ironic ... the fact that they're related to the problem coming is quite ironic.

CMO_Zaris says:
::looks at the table and thinks about the Alliance, captain Evans:: Aran: what? what does this have to do with them?

Host Aran says:
CMO: That they were victims much like you will be eventually.

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
CO: David do you know what those readings are yet... Our baby is very special....just like her mother....

Host XO_Wall says:
OPS: try to adjust the sensors, I want to be able to detect the "old ones" just as a precaution.

CMO_Zaris says:
::looks up at him:: Aran: no.. they didn't follow them here.. it's been 500  years!

SO_Ruskinara says:
CTO: Did you find Aran's record, sir?

Host Aran says:
<Lt. Cmdr. Friedman> ::Goes and looks at the records. A brief look of surprise comes onto her face, and she goes back to the FCO & CO:: FCO: Are you saying that your daughter may be possessed by one of these beings?

OPS_Seppela says:
XO: Aye sir. ::glad to finally be doing something, he gets right on it::

EO_Farewell says:
*Daniels*: I seem to be missing one of the repair reports on the EPS Conduits on Deck 30... are you sure that all of them were done...?

CTO_Timrok says:
SO: yes Lt, he's KIA, transporter accident of all things

Host Aran says:
::If he had an eyebrow, he would quirk it:: CMO: Who is they?

Host CO_David says:
FCO: There are completely different set of bio-readings coming from her.  Similar to the one's coming from you

SO_Ruskinara says:
::bites her lip::

CSO_Gomes says:
CTO/SO: Transporters sometimes have ways to change the body of the transported. Perhaps something like this happened.

CMO_Zaris says:
Aran: the Wyke

CTO_Timrok says:
SO: what reason do you have to believe that the person on our bridge was you old instructor?!

SO_Ruskinara says:
CSO/CTO: Or perhaps there was no accident. .the Aegis simply took him

Host Aran says:
::Chuckles:: CMO: The Wyke ... one of many names applied to them. You have no true idea.

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
Friedman:  If you can get that tricorder out of the Captain hand you will see that yes and she will be fine.  I just  never known them to pick a host so young....

Host XO_Wall says:
::walks over by the viewscreen meets up with a junior officer::

CNS_Pazoski says:
::Sensing Maor is still alright, gets up:: XO: There is little I can do here at the minute and I have a lot of catching up to do. I shall be in my office if you need me.

Host Aran says:
<Lt. Cmdr. Friedman> ::Takes the tricorder from the Captain::

Host XO_Wall says:
CNS: very well, good to have you back ::smiles::

CTO_Timrok says:
SO: what you are describing is abduction

Host Aran says:
CIV & CMO: You are both in danger. Would you like to see what you are facing?

EO_Farewell says:
<Daniels>  ::moves to one of the engineering command consoles and access the repair lists of the past couple of days::  *EO*: I'm checking Sir....one minute...

SO_Ruskinara says:
CTO: I don't know...it sounds like him, but I can't sense anything from him.

CSO_Gomes says:
CTO/SO: It is not so difficult to believe

CNS_Pazoski says:
::smiles:: XO: Thank you it is good to be back sir.

Host CO_David says:
::continues staring at his daughter, not even noticing Friedman::

CMO_Zaris says:
::plops in her chair:: Aran: fine.. who ever they are.. yes.. enlighten me

Host Aran says:
CMO & CIV: It would require that you accompany me on a trip ...

CTO_Timrok says:
CNS: one moment before you go, did you sense anything from Aran when he was on the bridge?

CIV_Maor says:
::Is really not in the mood to talk::

Host XO_Wall says:
::resume instructing junior officer, he turns around then leaves exiting the bridge::

CMO_Zaris says:
::waves her hand giving up.. her mind locked on the possibility of a Wyke invasion:: Aran: so be it

Host Aran says:
CIV: Will you accompany us, Maor?

CNS_Pazoski says:
CTO: No not from him. But there is something else onboard. ::adds emphasis on the 'is'::

CIV_Maor says:
Aran: If it is the wish of the Old Ones

Host Aran says:
CIV & CMO: Then inform your Captain of our departure.

Host XO_Wall says:
::he walks back over near tactical and Timrok::

CTO_Timrok says:
::raises an eyebrow:

CSO_Gomes says:
CNS: What sort of thing?

CMO_Zaris says:
~~~SO; Mir. I need you to contact Commander Townsend on the Alliance.. tell him.. it's from Jan~~~

CTO_Timrok says:
::rechecks internal sensors::

EO_Farewell says:
<Daniels> ::grumbles a bit as he sees the specific report missing::  *EO*: Uhm...according to the repair list, there is indeed one report missing..  ::sighs::  I will get right on it, Sir...

SO_Ruskinara says:
::blinks as she gets the CMO's message, gets to work at her console right away deciding not to tell anyone for the present::

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
:;pick Courtney up and holds her close::

CMO_Zaris says:
*CO*: sir.. the aliens have requested that Maor and I leave the ship..

CNS_Pazoski says:
::looks to the CSO:: CSO: I don't know just something not here though on one of the decks.

Host Aran says:
ACTION: Courtney feels so still in her mother's arms, but she is alive none-the-less. Just non-responsive.

CSO_Gomes says:
CNS: Maybe you should take a security team .. and me...do you know in which deck it is?

CSO_Gomes says:
::grabs her tricorder and walks towards Kezia::

Host CO_David says:
::eyes still stare at Courtney, his vision does not shift::

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
Friedman:  You said she has been like this for about 20mins now right...

CMO_Zaris says:
*CO*: we have agreed to go.. sir?

Host Aran says:
<Lt. Cmdr. Friedman> FCO: Yes, ma'am.

Host Aran says:
::Patiently waits for the Captain's response::

SO_Ruskinara says:
::discretely sends a call to Commander Townsend::

CNS_Pazoski says:
::nods:: CSO: Alex, Yes okay you caught me I was going to try and locate it, perhaps a security team would be useful, if the CTO would consider it? ::turns to the CTO as she asks::

Host CO_David says:
::shakes his head seemingly coming back to consciousness:: *CMO* Stand by, I'm returning to the bridge.  ::exits sickbay and runs for the TL::TL: Deck 1

CSO_Gomes says:
::turns to the CTO as well::

CTO_Timrok says:
CNS: of course :: take ensign white ::motions for the ensign to accompany the CNS & CSO::

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
Courtney:  Sweetheart its ok Mummy here....::please don't hurt my daughter she is only a baby::

CMO_Zaris says:
::stands and paces a bit around the room:: Aran: ok so you only care about my baby.. so what happens to me in all this?

CSO_Gomes says:
SO: Keep thinks together till I get back

CNS_Pazoski says:
::blinks and looks towards the SO:: Self: why is it I always pick up on it when someone is hiding something.

SO_Ruskinara says:
CSO: Aye Ma'am.

Host Aran says:
CMO: You will survive if you come with us. If you remain here, you and the child will perish.

CNS_Pazoski says:
CTO: Thank you.

CSO_Gomes says:
::moves towards the TL:: CNS: Where do we begin?

CMO_Zaris says:
Aran: you are talking in circles.. 

Host CO_David says:
::enters the bridge and quickly enters the Conference lounge::

SO_Ruskinara says:
::glances at the CNS trying to keep a straight face::

Host Aran says:
CMO: I am actually answering your questions directly and fully.

CMO_Zaris says:
::turns as the CO comes in the room..::

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
::starts walking around sickbay:: 

CIV_Maor says:
::Looks up:: Aran: Before we go, I have to know one thing

CNS_Pazoski says:
::shrugs:: CSO: I was just going to begin well by heading down the decks until I can sense it more clearly, if indeed I will be able to.

CMO_Zaris says:
Aran: the Tidnary used me.. I was nothing in the end.. they would have killed me in an instant.. are you the same?

Host Aran says:
::Nods at the Captain:: CO: Captain Harison, we wish to further explain our reasoning to your senior personnel ... in order to do that, they must come with us somewhere. You have our utmost promise that they will not be harmed, and will be returned intact ... unless of course, Doctor Zaris intends to take us up on our offer.

Host XO_Wall says:
::wonders why the Captain swiftly entered:: *CO*  is everything alright?

CSO_Gomes says:
CNS: Do you think you’ll be able to do that from the TL?

Host Aran says:
CMO: The Tidnary are no longer relevant.

EO_Farewell says:
*Daniels*: All right, Mr. Daniels...make it so... notify me if any problems arise..

CIV_Maor says:
::Stands up:: Aran: I have to know

Host CO_David says:
CMO:  Do you wish to go?

CMO_Zaris says:
CO: aye sir..

Host Aran says:
CIV: You have to know what?

Host CO_David says:
*XO* Fine Commander....just a few problems...

CIV_Maor says:
Aran: How do you and Mi.. the SO know each other?

Host Aran says:
CIV: That is not relevant to this matter.

CIV_Maor says:
::Hits his fist on the table:: Aran: It is to me

Host CO_David says:
CMO: Alright, I cannot stop you.

CNS_Pazoski says:
::smiles:: CSO: Probably, but I may just be on a wild goose chase and never find it.

Host CO_David says:
Aran:  She is to be returned, unharmed.

Host Aran says:
CO: Agreed. ::Removes a triangular device from his pocket:: CIV: Are you coming?

CSO_Gomes says:
CNS:I suggest we try from the TL and then deck by deck. what do you think?

CTO_Timrok says:
XO: its a sad day when we have to rely on the feelings of the crew over the ships own sensors ::slaps TAC angrily::

CIV_Maor says:
Aran: Do you rather I'll ask her? ::Turns to leave::

Host Aran says:
CIV: If you must.

CMO_Zaris says:
CO: I'm tired of being the pawn sir.. I just want this over with.. I'm being used to grow someone else's baby

CNS_Pazoski says:
::steps into the TL:: CSO: Okay name a deck, we'll start there.

Host Aran says:
CIV: But if you take the time to ask her, you will not be coming with us.

CIV_Maor says:
::Frowns at that comment:: Aran: You are hiding some thing from me

CSO_Gomes says:
::enters the TL::

Host Aran says:
CIV: What I may be "hiding" is of no concern to you.

Host Aran says:
::Activates the device::

CSO_Gomes says:
Computer: deck 36 stopping 30 seconds in each deck

CSO_Gomes says:
::looks at the CNS:: CNS: Is that enough?

Host Aran says:
ACTION: The Elara begins to rumble as a person sized vortex appears in the Conference Room.

CMO_Zaris says:
::looks at the floor and folds her arms::

Host CO_David says:
CMO: Take care of yourself.

EO_Farewell says:
<Daniels> *EO*: Aye, Sir....  ::gets his engineering equipment and heads for Deck 30::

Host Aran says:
::The two other Aegis walk into the vortex and vanish::

Host XO_Wall says:
CTO: what’s happening, what’s causing that?

Host Aran says:
CMO: Coming, Doctor?

CMO_Zaris says:
::swallows hard and follows them::

CTO_Timrok says:
::feels a rumbling:: self: what’s going on now?

CIV_Maor says:
::Tosses the PADD he was writing before to the end of the CR and enters the vortex::

Host Aran says:
ACTION: The CMO vanishes into the vortex.

CSO_Gomes says:
::grabs the TL doors as the ship rocks:: Self: What is going on?

Host Aran says:
ACTION: The PADD shatters, the message lost, and the CIV vanishes into the vortex.

Host XO_Wall says:
*CO*: Captain! you alright, what’s going on!

CNS_Pazoski says:
::blinks:: Computer: What was that?

Host Aran says:
::Looks at the PADD Maor carelessly tossed, then walks into the vortex::

CTO_Timrok says:
::checks sensors:: XO: the source of the vibration is the CR ::picks up his phaser & goes to the door of the CR:: 

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: Once Aran vanishes, the vortex dissipates, and the rumbling ends. The Captain and Sec. Team are left alone in the CR.

CNS_Pazoski says:
CSO: Maor?

FCO_Ross_Harison says:
Friedman:  I not sure how long she will be like this for but I hope its not long... Who knows what entity will do you poor Courtney

Host XO_Wall says:
::joins Timrok standing next to him::

Host CO_David says:
::turns and exits the CR::XO: Just fine.  Ms. Zaris has gone with Aran.
