Host SM_Lilia says:
The USS Elara remains in orbit of the Santiago colony. On the surface the plague continues to take its course while the solution is nearing. But will anyone else die?

Host SM_Lilia says:
<Lieutenant Yellow>*CTO*The probe is ready sir
Host CO_Capt_Wall says:
::on bridge sitting in his chair::
SO_Redjac says:
::arrives on the bridge and takes over the science::
CTO_LtCmdr_Mesme says:
*Yellow*: Excellent work Lt.
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
@::Still at the XO's side, waiting for news from the USS Mendeleiev::
Host SM_Lilia says:
@<Dr Ashrun>::in his office looking over paperwork and reports::
Host SM_Lilia says:
<OPS Solie>CTO: We are also ready to beam the piece of rock, if our science department is ready to receive it ::looks at the SO::
Host SM_Lilia says:
@<Dr Ashrun>::receives a transmission and taps a button, then leaves his office to the far side of the hospital::
Host XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
@:: sits up on his bed - feeling a little groggy ::
Host SM_Lilia says:
@ACTION: Out the XO's room a scream is heard but it quickly stops
CTO_LtCmdr_Mesme says:
OPS: Your probe is ready as well. Just need to decide where you want it sent.
Host SM_Lilia says:
<OPS Solie>::looks rather annoyed::CTO: I am an operations officer. I send where YOU want me to send it
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
@::Looks around for who screamed:: XO: I'll be right back sir. ::Heads out of the room to find the source of the scream::
Host CO_Capt_Wall says:
::gets up from his chair looking at OPS Solie::
Host XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
@:: looks at the CNS then makes his way to the doorway to see what all the noise was about ::
SO_Redjac says:
:;continues to work::
Host SM_Lilia says:
@ACTION: The CNS follows the scream she heard to a room where a now sleeping white Andorian lies in a bed. A male human nurse is at his side
CTO_LtCmdr_Mesme says:
::looks at Solie for a moment and wonders where the other OPS went...:: OPS: Thankyou for reminding me about that ensign, its been one of those days ::gives Solie a smile and goes back to his console::
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
@::still feeling clumsy in her suit she looks around to the XO:: XO: Are you alright to be up and about? ::Offers her arm for some support for him::
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
@::Looks at the Andorian, slightly puzzled but remembers how the last one suddenly sprung into action from his sleep::
Host CO_Capt_Wall says:
OPS: beam it to Science Lab 1, they conducted the first anaylsis of the first rock sample
Host SM_Lilia says:
@<Dr Ashrun>::Arrives at the XO's door::CNS/XO: The Mendeleiev has sent the antibody, I thought you would like to know before we administer it
Host SM_Lilia says:
<OPS Solie>CO: aye sir
SO_Redjac says:
CO: Orders?
Host XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
@ CNS: im not sure, i guess we will find out :: politely decling the CNS help ::
CTO_LtCmdr_Mesme says:
CO: Sir Im ready to launch the converted probe into one of the ocean trenches around the polar continents plate ::locks the final coordinates into the computer::
Host SM_Lilia says:
ACTION: From deep in the polar sea of Alera IV a 1 cubic meter piece is cut of. Quickly water takes its place
Host XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
@ :;Nods to the Dr::
Host CO_Capt_Wall says:
SO: thourough scan analysis of the upper polar region we are orbiting
SO_Redjac says:
ALL:The rock arrived safely at the lab, the team there is begining scans.
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
@::turns to the Dr:: DR: That is good news thank you ::turns to the XO with a smile:: XO: Would you like to be the test subject for this anti body?
SO_Redjac says:
::scans::
Host CO_Capt_Wall says:
SO: and be ready to receive data from science lab 1
SO_Redjac says:
CO:I detect nothing unusual from my scans.
Host XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
@CNS/Dr: right now i would happily be the test subject for anything if i thought it might make this headache stop
SO_Redjac says:
CO: Aye.
CTO_LtCmdr_Mesme says:
::decides just to go ahead and launch the probe, presses the launch button and watches it on sensors::
SO_Redjac says:
CO: The rock, It is quite different from anything else on the planet. It is filled with radiation and it seems to be producing it. Further scans are being conducted
Host SM_Lilia says:
@<Dr Ashrun>CNS/XO: I can not ask you this. I thought of experimenting on one of the Andorian patients first
SO_Redjac says:
<.>
Host CO_Capt_Wall says:
SO: could it be an artificial material
Host SM_Lilia says:
ACTION: A probe elegantly leaves the Elara towards the north pole of the planet
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
@ ::Turns back to the Dr:: XO/Dr Ashrun: What about him? ::motions to the white Andorian::
SO_Redjac says:
CO: It is made of an alloy that could never have been produced naturally on the planet but it seems to have been there for 9 million years.
Host SM_Lilia says:
@<Dr Ashrun>CNS: He is like the others of his species. Mad and colourless
Host CO_Capt_Wall says:
Self: so thats it...
Host XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
@Dr: its ok, its only right that you should try it on me
Host SM_Lilia says:
@<Dr Ashrun>::shakes his head::CNS: This is our last hope. We now have 50 terminal patients
Host CO_Capt_Wall says:
SO: could we be looking at a possible manmade planet somehow here
Host SM_Lilia says:
@<Dr Ashrun>XO: Your medicine your choice ::looks at the CNS for aproval::
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
@ XO: How about we try it on him first sir, you can have the second dose if it works? I would rather be sure we get you back to Elara safetly, otherwise the CO will have too many questions.
SO_Redjac says:
CO:There is no geological evidence that the planet is artificial.
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
@::looks at the XO for his response::
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
@XO: But if you really want the first dose...
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
@::shrugs as she watches for his reaction::
Host CO_Capt_Wall says:
SO: try to match the alloy in our computers to known species that use it or it comes from?
SO_Redjac says:
::runs a check::
Host XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
@CNS: No, the Andorian didn't sign up for this and he is in no condition to make an inform ::stops suddenly and holds his head::
CTO_LtCmdr_Mesme says:
CO: Sir I’m receiving telemetry from the probe, they seem to match what the SO is saying, this alloy is producing the radiation and the rocks on the surface are spreading it
Host XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
@ ::doubles over in pain::
SO_Redjac says:
CO:It was used before as a light condensing crystal by some species, but there is nothing that associates it with this system in particular.
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
@ Self: Stubborn as always and who is really in their right mind with this illness? ::looks at the XO with some concern:: XO: Sir are you alright? ::turns to the Dr:: Dr Ashrun: As he said lets try it he needs something more then we have been giving him 
Host SM_Lilia says:
@<Dr Ashrun>CNS: His case is evolving fast, probably because he was exposed too rapidly to the radiation.I am not certain he can handle another dose of your medicine
Host XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
@:: grabs a hold of the doorframe::
Host CO_Capt_Wall says:
CTO: agreed I am suspecting that human were never ment to be on this planet, the radiation on this planet or whatever that alloy is from a species that long left this planet. That to that species the radiation had no effect but to humanoids species it is deadly
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
@Dr Ashrun: Do you have a dose prepare of the antibodies for him?
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
@ ::support the XO and tries to guide him back to his bed:: XO: You're getting your wish, now lets try and make you a bit more comfortable are you able to walk?
Host SM_Lilia says:
@<Dr Ashrun>::prepares a hypo::CNS: I do now. The dosage is not very high but there is no telling of its effects
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
@ Dr Ashrun: Then perhaps we are best to test it a little at a time, wouldn't want to do him any more damage while he is here. ::still supporting Timrok, looking a bit concerned about him::
Host SM_Lilia says:
@<Dr Ashrun>::gets near Timrok with the hypospray up::XO: Are you sure?
Host XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
@::gasps:: CNS: Yes ::shuffles back toward his bed:: Dr: do it, please
Host CO_Capt_Wall says:
SO: see if you can find fact to what I just said
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
@ ::half of her is hoping he will say no to the Dr and they can test on the Andorian first, sighs as he agrees to it, but gets him back to his bed::
Host SM_Lilia says:
@<Dr Ashrun>::first makes sure that the XO's new suit is well protected:: XO: We don't want to reinfect you again ::administers the hypo and quickly closes the suit::
SO_Redjac says:
CO: Could you refresh my memory Sir? I  have a headache.
CTO_LtCmdr_Mesme says:
CO: If thats the case sir. How do we stop the radiation, we are going to have a massive disaster on our hands if we cant.
Host CO_Capt_Wall says:
SO: I am suspecting that human were never ment to be on this planet, the radiation on this planet or whatever that alloy is from a species that long left this planet. That to that species the radiation had no effect but to humanoids species it is deadly
SO_Redjac says:
CO:There is no evidence of an early civilization on the planet.
Host CO_Capt_Wall says:
SO: however you said the allow was there atleast 9 million years a long time, there could have been a species here before
Host XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
@:: groans in pain :: CNS: Karida i think your in command of the away team from here ::collapses back on the bed::
SO_Redjac says:
CO:Evidence does not support it.
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
@::once the XO is on the bed she turns to the Dr:: XO/Dr Ashrun: Lets hope it is quick to take effect. A positive one at that!
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
@::Looks at the XO and then to her tricorder to check his vital signs:: Self: Oh sugar big mistake, big mistake
Host SM_Lilia says:
@<Dr Ashrun>::attaches a diagnostic device at the XO's helment::
Host XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
@ ::lies very still with his eyes closed::
Host SM_Lilia says:
@<Dr Ashrun>CNS:Maybe the dose was too high .. but I couldn't know ...
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
@ ::looks at the Dr:: Dr Ashrun: Good news would have been better, ::pauses:: is he stable? Or can we remove some of the drug from his system?
Host SM_Lilia says:
<OPS Solie>CO/CTO/SO: I may be wrong here but it would not be possible to simply beam two tectonic plates away. How do we clean this planet?
Host CO_Capt_Wall says:
OPS: send data that we are getting from this rock sample of this alloy to the USS Mendeleiev and to the hospital facility were Comander Timrok is perhaps, tell them this is the source of the radiation
Host SM_Lilia says:
<OPS Solie>CO: Aye Captain
SO_Redjac says:
ALL: We use another form of radiation to conteract and bond with it, making it inert.
Host SM_Lilia says:
@<Dr Ashrun>CNS: He is anything but stable though I can't tell if the antibody is doing good or bad
Host CO_Capt_Wall says:
CTO: that might make the planet unstable and cause other problems the planet
Host XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
@:: opens his eyes slowly and stares upward at the ceiling ::
Host SM_Lilia says:
<OPS Solie>CO: The Hospital is thankfull for the information but they await our solution for the problem. They are trying a new medicine
Host SM_Lilia says:
@<Dr Ashrun>CNS: Well, he is not dead yet but he could be a vetetable
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
@ ::watches the XO closely and inhales deeply:: Dr Ashrun: How long till we know for sure? ::places her hand on the XO's arm hoping for a response from him:: 
Host SM_Lilia says:
@<Dr ashrun>::shrugs::CNS: Your guess is as good as mine
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
@ Self: Not what I want to tell the CO ::instinctively:: ~~~XO: Timrok, Come on sir I know you can come through this.~~~
Host XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
@::turns his head to the CNS and stares::
Host CO_Capt_Wall says:
OPS: tell them we all are to be working on a solution together, thats why I sent the data for them to use
Host SM_Lilia says:
<OPS Solie>::nods::
Host XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
@CNS: Lt Cmdr why are you holding my arm?
Host SM_Lilia says:
@<Dr Ashrun>::smiles::
Host CO_Capt_Wall says:
OPS: also we might not be able to find a solution, contact Starfleet and ask them if theres anyway to get additional starships here we may need to evacuate the planet
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
@ ::blinks and jumps back with fright as she had not expected him to speak:: XO: Sir how are you feeling?
CTO_LtCmdr_Mesme says:
CO: Sir I have already contacted command about the evacuation, 6 weeks is the best they can do.
Host SM_Lilia says:
@<Dr Ashrun>::uses a small device to beam out a millilitre of the XO's blood, replacing it with sterile serum::
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
@::her shocked expression quickly turns to a smile:: XO: Thought we'd lost you then sir.
Host SM_Lilia says:
@<Dr Ashrun>XO/CNS: I will take this to the lab, I will come back with the results shortly
Host XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
@CNS: awfull... what did i miss?
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
@Dr Ashrun: Thank you, you've done a really good job today. I hope the results are positive.
Host SM_Lilia says:
@<Dr Ashrun>::leaves the room with a nod::
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
@ ::looks confused:: XO: Do you remember being knocked by the Andorian, getting this illness which we came to investigate and then you mentioned the cure, anti proteins?
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
@::takes a breath as she rushes to inform him:: XO: Then the Mendeleiev found an antibody,that you wanted to test, we thought we had lost you for a moment.
Host CO_Capt_Wall says:
Self: ::mumbles:: Starfleet!
Host XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
@::raises an eyebrow:: CNS: whats an anti protein?
Host SM_Lilia says:
<OPS Solie>CO/CTO: So if they don't find a cure these people have no future bue death
Host SM_Lilia says:
@<Dr Ashrun>::comes running into the room::XO: Your blond girl knew it all. The antibody works
Host SM_Lilia says:
@<Dr Ashrun>CNS: But did she tell you how to get rid of the radiation? We have the cure but have not elliminated the risk of reinfection
Host CO_Capt_Wall says:
OPS: thats a possibility, why Starfleet just sent us alone here to try to fix this problem is beyond me giving the result the USS Mendeleiev had prior to being assigned to this mission
CTO_LtCmdr_Mesme says:
OPS: It would appear so, unless we can make this alloy stop generating the radiation, afterall something must have triggered it to start producing it
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
@ ::shrugs:: XO: That I still can't answer. The Dr's thought you were mad when you mentioned it, but apparently the girl you met who mentioned them was quite correct.
Host SM_Lilia says:
<OPS Solie>CTO: Historical Data says nothing about a possible triggering mechanism
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
@ Dr Ashrun: That is good news, the radiation I almost forgot ::turns to the XO:: XO: Perhaps its time to check in with Elara again Sir?
Host SM_Lilia says:
<OPS Solie>CO: I suppose they did not understand the gravity of the situation
Host XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
@ ::looks slightly confused for a second:: CNS: yes perhaps
Host CO_Capt_Wall says:
ALL: we have two options to try to find a way to neutralize the radiation or to find a cure to make humanoids imune to the radiation so that they can stay on this planet
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
@::hands him the Padd with her logs on it:: XO:Sir, Perhaps that will explain things to you? Would you like to catch up while I speak to the CO, though I think he would be encouraged to hear your voice.
Host SM_Lilia says:
@<Dr Ashrun>CNS: I will begin tests on the other patients. Perhaps we do have to consider leaving our homes
Host XO_Cmdr_Timrok says:
@CNS: you go ahead, I don’t feel ready yet ::browses the information on the PADD::
Host SM_Lilia says:
@<Dr Ashrun>::leaves the room::
Host CO_Capt_Wall says:
OPS: it might not do any could but contact starfleet command and inform them of our current situation and what we have found out and that the colony is running out of time, we are continueing to try to find a solution ask them advise.
Host SM_Lilia says:
<OPS Solie>CO: Aye sir
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
@::nods to the XO and steps over to the console:: COMM: CO Wall: Captain I have some good news for you the antibody arrived from the USS Mendeleiev, The XO has been treated and seems well save some memory loss, may I ask how the removal of the radiation problem is going?
CNS_LtCmdr_Janan says:
<@>
Host CO_Capt_Wall says:
SO: see if you find a way to nuetralize the radiation from this alloy
Host SM_Lilia says:
<OPS Solie>CO: Starfleet will begin evacuation procedures immediately. So the sooner we find a cure the less people may die. In any event they are putting the planet on quarantine
Host SM_Lilia says:
ACTION: The antibody works perfectly. It doesn't cure but makes the colonists temporarily immune to the disease. Evacuation begins just a few hours after the Elara leaves the system
Host SM_Lilia says:
ACTION: On one morning, after a restless sleep Timrok wakes up with a single thought in a female's voice "See Joe, it was easy"
