CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
::scanning the debris field on the bridge::
Host SM_Lilia says:
ACTION: The Elara enters orbit around Frelia V
CNS_Lt_Janan says:
::enters the bridge and takes her seat, tugging at the collar of her uniform slightly::
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
::adjusts the sensors while scanning::
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
::in observation lounge::
XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
::enters the bridge having left his quarters a few minutes ago::
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
::he gets up and enters the bridge::
CMO_Ens_Larix says:
::Is sitting in his chair on the bridge as the CNS comes to join him. Thinks he needs to have a word with the XO.::
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
::adjusts the pulse phasic emitters on the sensors to get better readings::
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
CMO: Wasn't a previous host on a ship that I owned?
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
::he looks up at the viewscreen and sees Frelia V::
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
::notices plasma weapons::
EO_Ens_Tpucnamushi says:
::zipping around engineering in my hoverchair, adjusting controls and fine tuning the ship::
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
XO: The debris field is frelian in origin and notices the use of plasma weapons.
CMO_Ens_Larix says:
::Perks a brow and turns to the CSO.:: CSO: Perhaps, on what do you base your assumption ?
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
CMO: I had a freighter engineer that died in an explosion.
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
::he takes a seat in his chair on the bridge::
XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
CSO: I see, do we have any information on the weapon types used by the Frelian Navy?
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
CSO: I will begin some scans.
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
::scans the frelian ships in the area::
EO_Ens_Tpucnamushi says:
::puts the finishing wreckage on the ship and is watching the monitors registering everything in tip-top shape::
Host Slun says:
<OPS_Endl>XO: The Frelians are hailing from the planet
CMO_Ens_Larix says:
::Seems to be pondering then continues.:: CSO: Yes, I was a freighter engineer but that was over two hundred and fifty years ago. ::Smiles a little.::
EO_Ens_Tpucnamushi says:
::taps commbadge:: *CO*: Tpuc to Captain Wall
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
CMO: The luxon was a pretty good ship for its day.
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
*EO*: yes Tpuc
XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
::turns to the Captain:: CO: and so it begins
EO_Ens_Tpucnamushi says:
*CO*: The ship is fully restored to normal operational status.
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
::scans the planet to look for plasma weapons.::
CMO_Ens_Larix says:
::Runs through his memories and finds what he's looking for - he knew the CSO looks familiar.:: CSO: So'ta ?
XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
OPS: on screen
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
CMO: Yes.
CMO_Ens_Larix says:
::Smirks and wishes to continue but ceases as the hail is asked to be put on screen.::
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
XO: ::leans to whisper:: yep our era, lets try not to screw this up ::chuckles joking::
Host Slun says:
ACTION: On the screen appears the same Frelian as before. Again the ridges on his cheeks and ears are quite obvious
CNS_Lt_Janan says:
::watches the screen::
XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
::raises an eyebrow - noting a somewhat lighter attitude in Wall than he has been used to::
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
::focus on duty::
Host Slun says:
COM:; USS Elara: Greetings Captain Wall, I see that your ship is fully restored. You must have indeed great technological capabilities
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
*EO*: very good, stand by
EO_Ens_Tpucnamushi says:
::lowers hoverchair, and get out of it, "to stand by"::
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
COM: Slun: yes Starfleet crews are trained and discipline well
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
::::notices the weapons::
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
::decides to wait till the captain is done talking::
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
COM: Slun: yes also we have advanced in technology as well
Host Slun says:
CO;: USS Elara: We would be very proud to be a part of your Federation so our race could be taken to the far reaches of the galaxy
EO_Ens_Tpucnamushi says:
::sits back in hoverchair, as my little legs are tired from all that standing::
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
COM: Slun: I am pleased in your interest in a Federation Membership, you do realize there is a heavy thorough process, in afterward a review by us a report is sent to the Federation for final approval
CIV_Cmdr_Maor says:
::Glances up as the TL doors open, he makes his way towards the gamma shift OPS and relives him. With a quick glance at the view screen and the situation of the bridge he returns his attention to the console in front of him::
CNS_Lt_Janan says:
::silently keeps watching and listening to the conversation::
Host Slun says:
COM: USS Elara: I understand. You are of course welcome to visit our planet
CMO_Ens_Larix says:
::Looks to CNS a little.:: ~~~CNS: Pardon my intrusion but do you still get nothing.~~~
XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
::notes the arrival of Mr. Maor::
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
COM: Slun, very well, thank you, when would be a great time to start
CNS_Lt_Janan says:
~~~CMO: Not a thing from them at all.~~~
Host Slun says:
COM: USS Elara: We are ready, and eager to show you our world when you wish
CMO_Ens_Larix says:
~~~CNS: Is it the same nothing you get from me or an absence of anything, like I'm getting ?~~~
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
COM: Slun: very well we can beam down in a Half an hour from now, send us the coordinates then we can see you then
CNS_Lt_Janan says:
~~~CMO: Absence of anything is quite correct, though its odd, I guess it could be a normal thing around this race of people.~~~
Host Slun says:
COM: USS Elara: I shall transmit the coordinates for our main square. I will be there waiting for you.
CNS_Lt_Janan says:
~~~CMO: I guess we have to pray body language and common sense help us out here.~~~
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
COM: Slun, very good Captain Wall out
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
CO: Captain, I noticed that the frelians use a rudimentary plasma weapon.
CIV_Cmdr_Maor says:
CO: Captain, we just received the coordinates from them. Displaying on screen.
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
CO: The ballistic tests on the debris field were plasma weapons.
Host Slun says:
ACTION: The image of an apparently very happy Frelian disappears from the screen as he gives one final bow to the Great Federation
CMO_Ens_Larix says:
~~~CNS: Times like this make me wish I'd take psychology and not psychiatry.~~~ ::Smiles and looks back to screen as it clears.::
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
CSO: so they are not a very good threat if they should try something
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
CO:  true but the debris field still worries me sir.
XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
::thinks - if only everyone was so happy to see us::
CNS_Lt_Janan says:
::smiles towards the CMO then turns back towards the CO::
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
CSO: yes it is odd?
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
CNS: your impression?
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
::turns around to face the captain:: CO: I just have a bad feeling about this sir.
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
CNS: of Slun?
CNS_Lt_Janan says:
CO: I can read nothing from them, however they appeared happy and far to keen to be helpful to us, I guess we have to go with caution, but couldn't we just ask them about the debris field, they understand we would want to be careful with our judgment to let them join the federation.
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
CO: I think that we should keep that debris field as our ace captain.
EO_Ens_Tpucnamushi says:
COM: Computer, locate Chief Science Officer La`tan
Host Slun says:
<Computer>EO: CSO La'Tan is on the bridge
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
CNS: yes I will ask about the debris field, you will be going with me
CNS_Lt_Janan says:
CO: With you?
EO_Ens_Tpucnamushi says:
::grabs tool belt and heads for the bridge::
CNS_Lt_Janan says:
Self: What is it with CO's jumping off the ship into unknown situations.
EO_Ens_Tpucnamushi says:
::enters nearest TL:: COM: Bridge.
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
Self: Why do Starfleet captains rush into danger all the time.
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
CNS: when I go down after the initial once the talks begin
CNS_Lt_Janan says:
::Nods:: CO: Of course. ::smiles with some relief::
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
::turns away and continues work at the science station::
CMO_Ens_Larix says:
::Is pondering whether to mention his point.::
EO_Ens_Tpucnamushi says:
::steps off TL and onto bridge::
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
XO: prepare an away team to meet up with Slun, I want to know what you think, you will make the initial scope of there people
CMO_Ens_Larix says:
XO: Sir, may I speak with you for a few moments?
EO_Ens_Tpucnamushi says:
::walks up to the CSO: CSO: Do we have that debris yet?
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
EO: Its a plasma weapon Ensign.
XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
CO: Acknowledged, Cmdr Maor / CNS your with me - I will meet you in the TR in a few moments ::turns to the CMO: go ahead
CNS_Lt_Janan says:
::blinks then gives a nod to the XO as she gets up::
CMO_Ens_Larix says:
XO: I'd like to join you on this away mission. I'm intrigued by the lack of empathic readings I got from Slun and I've been a diplomatic liaison to Earth for sixty-five years. I could also begin my medical report on this species. ::Thinks back to his diplomatic training as Elena -Larix-.::
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
EO: To be more specific its something that’s been hit b plasma weapons.
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
XO: we will wait to receive the coordinates, when we do a thorough scan will be conducted of that area, if it checks out then your an the away team will beam down
CIV_Cmdr_Maor says:
::Glances for a moment at the mention of his name, he raises a subtle eyebrow and returns his attention to the OPS console. With a quick modifications, he moves away from the console and walks towards the TL::
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
CO: whose going to be in charge of the ship with all the senior beaming down to the planet sir.
XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
CMO: Very well Doctor, make preparation to disembark
CNS_Lt_Janan says:
::joins Maor in the TL::
XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
::nods to the CO::
CMO_Ens_Larix says:
::Smiles to XO.:: XO: Thank you, Sir.
XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
CO: we will be ready to beam down on your orders ::turns & joins the others in the TL:
CIV_Cmdr_Maor says:
CNS: Counselor. ::Waits patently for the XO and the CMO::
CNS_Lt_Janan says:
::gives a smile and a polite nod of her head towards Maor::
CMO_Ens_Larix` says:
::Stands and adjusts his lab coat whilst heading for the TL.::
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
XO: go ahead
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
::starts doing some sensors  sweeps::
XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
::Turns to Maor:: Cmdr: when we get the chance i would like to have a word with you ::wits for the TL to arrive at its location::
CNS_Lt_Janan says:
::tugs her collar again::
CMO_Ens_Larix says:
*Nurse Lockheart*: Can you meet me in the transporter room with a full medi-kit please.
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
::scans the planet for plasma weapons::
CIV_Cmdr_Maor says:
XO: If you deem it necessary, Commander.
CMO_Ens_Larix says:
<Nurse Lockheart> *CMO*: Aye, sir. 
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
CSO: keep a transporter lock on the away team, any sign of trouble you are to beam them out of there immediately
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
CO: aye sir.
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
::Starts an AI program to help keep sensor locks::
XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
::heads to the transporter room - allowing the others to enter first::
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
CO:  I noticed that the planets defense cannons are mostly inoperative for a long time.
CNS_Lt_Janan says:
::steps out of the TL and walks towards the transporter room::
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
OPS: I want an open comm to the away team the entire time there are down there
CMO_Ens_Larix says:
::Is met by Nurse Lockheart and receives his medi-kit.:: Nurse Lockheart: Thank you, alert me if anything occurs and I'm required. Sickbay is yours for now.
Host Slun says:
<OPS_Endl>CO: Aye sir
CIV_Cmdr_Maor says:
::Walks along the other members of the away team:: XO: Do I to understand that we will not be carrying any non-standard weaponry, Commander?
CMO_Ens_Larix says:
::Proceeds to transporter.::
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
OPS: open a channel to Slun
Host Slun says:
<OPS Endl>CO: Channel opened sir
CNS_Lt_Janan says:
::checks for a tricorder::
XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
::holds Maor back & lets the others go in :: Maor:: This is of the record, but the thing is the Elara needs a good CTO - an experienced officer and frankly I cant think of anyone better suited to the post than you, if you were to apply for the post then I would support your application & I think the Captain would agree, and to answer your question - no
Host Slun says:
ACTION: Again the star field on the viewscreen is replaced by Slun, this time on the outside
Host Slun says:
ACTION: ... in what looks to be a garden of some sort
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
COM: Slun, we are just about to beam down, it is standard procedure that the First Officer meets with the first meeting of the party of the planet requesting membership
CIV_Cmdr_Maor says:
XO: That's kind of you Commander, but to be honest I'm not sure I have what it takes. However, I'll keep your suggestion under advisement. ::Steps on one of the transporters::
CMO_Ens_Larix says:
::Brushes a little bit of fluff from the shoulder of his lab coat which is surprisingly comfortable.::
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
::scans the area that Slun is in::
XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
CIV: I’m certain you do Commander ::enters the TR and stands on the PADD:: *CO* we are ready to depart sir
XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
::gives a look to the rest of the AT to see that they are ready::
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
COM: Slun, he will be with some off our senior staff to greet you
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
*XO*: stand by
XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
::tries not to look nervous::
Host Slun says:
COM: USS Elara: Certainly Captain, that is not a problem, we just want to meet with representatives of the Federation. Any of your fine crew will sufice
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
COM: Slun, ok they are beaming down now
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
::whispers to the EO:: EO: He just seems to friendly to me.
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
*XO*: you are cleared to beam down
Host Slun says:
COM: USS Elara: Acknowledged
XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
::gives the Transporter chief the nod to energize::
Host CO_Captain_Wall says:
CSO: anything out of the ordinary on the scans of that area of the coordinates given
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
::scans the coordinates in that area::
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
CO: I am checking right now sir.
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
CO: Its just a garden sir.
Host Slun says:
<Transporter_Chief>::beams the away team to the planet::
XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
::watches as the Elara disappears in a fireworks show of sparkly lights to be replaced with the meeting place on Frelia::
Host Slun says:
@ACTION: The AT is transported to a marvelous garden, filled with exotic plans of blue and yellow leaves, with even more exquisite flowers 
CNS_Lt_Janan says:
@::glances around::
CMO_Ens_Larix says:
@::Really doesn't know why some Trill get themselves all upset about using transporters. Looks around and automatically beings empathic scans for life.::
XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
@::looks aroound and takes in the impressive surrounding before fixing his gaze on there hosts::
Host Slun says:
@ACTION: They are in a square delimited by four small rocks on the ground, in the center of the square is a large sphere. Slun is there
CMO_Ens_Larix says:
@::Finds the old botanist in him, Ilin -Larix-, inspired by the garden around him.::
CNS_Lt_Janan says:
@::notices Slun and looks over towards the XO::
CIV_Cmdr_Maor says:
@::Quickly shifts his glance all over the surrounding area, he remains silent as he waits::
CNS_Lt_Janan says:
@~~~CMO: Still nothing from them?~~~
XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
@Slun: greetings i am commander Timrok of the United Federation Starship Elara ::holds out his hand  before he proceeds to introduce the AT::
Host Slun says:
@XO: Welcome to our World Commander. I hope you and your great crew enjoys the stay
CMO_Ens_Larix says:
@::Doesn't look to CNS as to keep the conversation on the quiet.:: ~~~CNS: Absolutely nothing at all - I don't like it. I'll try my tricorder.~~~
Host Slun says:
@::looks at the XO's hand and tilts his head. Then he holds out his hand as well but does nothing with it::
CSO_ENS_La`tan says:
::uses long range scanners on some of the neighboring systems::
XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
@Slun: thank you, we look forward to it ::gently takes Slun’s hand and shakes it::
CMO_Ens_Larix says:
@ ::Activates an active scan on his medical tricorder and slips into his lab coat pocket for now.::
Host Slun says:
@::shakes the XO's hand as well, thinking this must be a greetings. Then he put more emphasis on it, shaking the XO's hand hard::
XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
@Slun: with your permission our ships doctor would like to conduct some medical scans, his appetite for knowledge on new species is insatiable, The UFP is made up of many species - as is the crew of the Elara ::takes back his hand:: 
CMO_Ens_Larix says:
@ ::Looks to Slun.:: Slun: I'm Doctor Larix, pleased to meet you.
Host Slun says:
@::takes a moment to answer the XO, his face becomes expressionless as he speaks:: XO: Certainly, I will arrange that
XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
@Slun: thank you, we hope to learn much in our time here
Host Slun says:
