=/\= U.S.S. Elara Stardate 10411.21 - "Shooting Stars, part II "=/\=
Host SM_Lilia says:
The USS Elara is near the Antradi's system asteroid belt. All seems peaceful except Commander Mesme is nowhere to be seen
Host SM_Lilia says:
The crew has apparently been instructed to prepare a defense. What are they accused of?
Host SM_Lilia says:
Murder?

Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
:: on the bridge ::
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
::looks confused:: Computer: What do you mean he is no longer aboard the ship?!
CEO_LtJg_McKnight says:
::walks over to the engineering console on the bridge still looking at the pod readouts::
Host SM_Lilia says:
<Computer>CMO: Unable to comply, please restate question
Host SM_Lilia says:
@ACTION: The XO is still apparently in the middle of nowhere. He feels a strong sting in his arm
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
::sighs:: Computer: I asked, where is Commander Mesme, and you told me he is no longer aboard the ship.
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
Computer: So where the hell is he?
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
OPS: Try to get a lock on Mesme's comm signal
Host SM_Lilia says:
<Computer>CMO: Unable to comply, please restate question
XO_Cmdr_Mesme says:
@::in the nothingness, grabs his arm and spins to face the direction of the "sting":: World in General: Is someone there?
Host SM_Lilia says:
ACTION: A red blip is seen in the CEO's console
CEO_LtJg_McKnight says:
::the blip draws his attention:: Self: What the?
OPS_Ens_Conners says:
CO: Will try sir. ::Works hastily to locate the XO's comm signal::
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
::takes a deep breath:: Computer: WHERE .. IS .. COMMANDER .. MESME?
CNS_Ens_Starbuck says:
::watches the commotion on the bridge::
CEO_LtJg_McKnight says:
CO: Captain, the pod seems to be draining our main power, even when we are not using it.
Host SM_Lilia says:
<Computer>CMO: Unknown
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
CNS: See what you can find in the records about any race inhabiting this asteroid field or any encounters in this area
OPS_Ens_Conners says:
::Looks up from the bleeps on his console:: CO: Sir, I've got a com signal incoming.
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
::wants to hurt the computer something rotten::
CNS_Ens_Starbuck says:
CO: Will do sir....
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
CEO: Try to isolate it from the main power, shut it down
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
OPS: put it up
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
::walks back into his office, very perturbed::
CEO_LtJg_McKnight says:
CO: Aye sir, cutting all pod power transfer systems ::takes the action into his hands::
XO_Cmdr_Mesme says:
@::rubs his arm until it feels a little better and sits down again:: Self: They could at least have the decency of showing themselves.
OPS_Ens_Conners says:
::Puts the com signal on speaker:: CO: It's on speaker captain.
Host SM_Lilia says:
ACTION: Through the bridge, a female voice can be heard. Your time is up. We are begining the trial at once
Host SM_Lilia says:
ACTION: CO and CNS are beamed away
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
:: was about to speak as he disappears ::
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
*CO*: Rillix to the Captain, Sir where is the XO?
CEO_LtJg_McKnight says:
::turns to the "big chair":: CO: CAPTAIN ! ::sees the CO and CNS disappear::
OPS_Ens_Conners says:
::Looks surprise as the CO and CNS vanish from the bridge::
Host SM_Lilia says:
@ACTION: The CO and CNS are beamed to a room which looks very much like a 24th century human court. Mesme is with them in the defense seats
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
*CO*: Captain, please respond.
Host SM_Lilia says:
@ACTION: There is no jury, only what appears to be a human female judge
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
:: gets his bearings :: @ XO: are you ok?
Host SM_Lilia says:
ACTION: CMO has no response
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
Computer: Computer, what is the location of the Captain?
CNS_Ens_Starbuck says:
@:: tries to figure the situation out::
XO_Cmdr_Mesme says:
@::blinks slightly at the shift in his surroundings, notices the CO and CNS next to him:: CO: Yes sir, I have... been treated... well. I have no idea where we are though
Host SM_Lilia says:
<Computer>CMO: Captain Timrok is no longer aboard the Elara
CEO_LtJg_McKnight says:
::walks over to the captains chair:: OPS: Mr. Conners, we need to find them, pronto!
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
@ Judge: what is going on here?
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
::exasperated:: Self: WHERE THE HECK IS EVERYONE?!
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
::bangs his head on his desk::
OPS_Ens_Conners says:
CEO: Aye sir, I'll give it another try. ::Gets back to working at his console::
CEO_LtJg_McKnight says:
OPS: Mr. Conners, can you trace the beam out signature?
Host Judge says:
@All: You are here accused of destroying one of our stations and murdering 50 of our people. Mr. Mesme is taking the blame and thus being trialed for all of you
Host Judge says:
@All: You will argue your defense with Mr. Alryane and me. The winner of arguments wins the trial. You have 2 of your hours till the poison in Mr. Mesme kills him
CEO_LtJg_McKnight says:
Helm: Helm, what is our position?!
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
@ Judge: Taking the blame? That’s preposterous, Commander Mesme had nothing to do with it
OPS_Ens_Conners says:
::Tapping commands into the console to get a trace on the signature:: CEO: I was attempting that as we speak.
XO_Cmdr_Mesme says:
@::looks at the Judge:: Judge: Poison?
Host Judge says:
<FCO Lost>CEO: we are currently stopped 500 meters from the nearest asteroid
CNS_Ens_Starbuck says:
@XO: If this is what you call treating you well..... ::stares::
OPS_Ens_Conners says:
::Looks up at the CEO:: CEO: Sir, I believe I have detected their badges in one of the asteroids.
Host Judge says:
@CO: Would you prefer all of you to be killed? And I must warn you, you may leave when you want. But that will be assuming guilt as there is no cure for the poison
CEO_LtJg_McKnight says:
OPS: Good work Mr. Conners, transfer the co-ordinates to the helm station.
XO_Cmdr_Mesme says:
@CNS: Well it didn't seem to be that bad a few minutes ago...
CEO_LtJg_McKnight says:
FCO: Take us in Mr. Lost
Host Judge says:
@CO/CNS/XO: the word is yours
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
@Judge: Firstly, this court is unjust, how can you judge impartially if you are arguing for the prosecution?
Host Judge says:
<FCO Lost>CEO: In sir? To the Asteroid belt?
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
::leaves sickbay and makes his way to the TL::
OPS_Ens_Conners says:
CEO: Aye sir. ::Transfers the co-ordinates to the helm station::
XO_Cmdr_Mesme says:
@Judge: Um, excuse me, so whatever happens, I am going to die in 2 hours?
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
Computer: Deck 1, Bridge.
Host Judge says:
@CO: I read of your courts and this is not like it. I will not make the decision, the decision will come out of our arguments. I read from your records that you abide with the laws of the peoples you encounter. Something about a prime directive?
CNS_Ens_Starbuck says:
@Judge: Well you say that we killed 50 people and destroyed one... what proof do you have?
CEO_LtJg_McKnight says:
::sits on the CO chair and takes a look at the sensor read-outs of the asteroid field::
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
@: Judge: You are exacting revenge not justice, you simply chose someone at random - if you wanted justice you would try the person responsible
Host Judge says:
@CNS: If you wish to risk death by being phased into our reality that’s your choice. But I warn you, accusing us of lying will not save your friend's life
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
@ Judge: are we not even to be assigned local council? We have no prior knowledge of your system of law - the trial is not a fair one
Host Judge says:
@CO: How else will we make sure you know not to do this again?
CNS_Ens_Starbuck says:
@Judge: I am not accusing of laying... just misinterpretation...
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
@ Judge: how could we know not to do this in the first place :: postures angrilly ::
CEO_LtJg_McKnight says:
FCO: Helm, put us in orbit around that asteroid, in scanning range ::still looking at the asteroid field scan::
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
::enters the bridge:: Anyone who will listen: Right.... what the heck is going on, where is everyone, and can someone give the computer a kick up the backside!!?
Host Judge says:
@CO: Ah you claim ignorance? You can not. Your Federation has technology to detect us. Why have you not brought it its beyond my understanding
OPS_Ens_Conners says:
::Looks startled at the doc:: CMO: People are being beamed of the ship and onto or inside one of those asteroids.
CEO_LtJg_McKnight says:
CMO: calm down doctor, our command crew got kidnapped as well as the CNS, we're in the process of returning them.
Host Judge says:
@::sits back:: CO: Ignorance will not help you. We exist in a different quantum phase, thus you can not interact with us normally. But your quantum torpedoes can. Mr. Alryane will take your accusation from here on, talk to him
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
::takes a long sigh:: CEO: Another normal day at the office then?
Host Judge says:
<FCO Lost>CEO: Sir .... we don’t fit in the asteroid belt
CNS_Ens_Starbuck says:
@Arlyane: So you are suggesting that our quantum torpedoes, somehow, killed 50 people and destroyed one Starbase?
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
CEO: We don't fit eh?! ::gets a sly grin:: I have a suggestion...
CEO_LtJg_McKnight says:
CMO: Lets hear it doctor
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
CEO: Well when I returned from assignment Starfleet Intelligence gave me one of their runabouts, The Six Feet Under.
Alryane says:
@::Suddenly appears out of thin air and takes a look around:: All: Ah, there you are.. ::Takes a seat at a big, uncomfortable chair::
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
@Alryane: If we are going to do this we should at least try the correct person, I gave the order to fire the ships weapons it should be me on trial, Commander Mesme was not to blame, I request to take his place.
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
CEO: They took most of their gadgets out, but if memory serves it does have an enhanced sensor pallet.
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
CEO: I've been dying to use it more, so why don't I take her out and scan the belt?
Host Judge says:
@::goes quiet for a moment, listening::
CEO_LtJg_McKnight says:
CMO: I see your point Mr. Ordo, take your runabout out and get in scanning range, give us as much data as you can and then return. We need to know as much as we can about this "things" before we engage in any kind of further encounter.
Alryane says:
@CO: I'm afraid it is too late for that now.. You see, our department of justice, as you would call it... We actually call it the disciplinary agency.. Well, they already accepted your commander Mesme to take the blame..
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
@Alryane: On what grounds?!
XO_Cmdr_Mesme says:
@CO: Sir, I am prepared to accept their decision so far, I am sure we can clear up this tragic mistake in time
Host Judge says:
@ ::leans back after a few seconds:: CNS: As for your question. That is exactly what happened
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
CMO: Righto, but I'll need your help adjusting the sensor pallet. And I'm sure Ens Conners will be able to pilot extremely well.
Alryane says:
@CO: On grounds that he himself stepped up to take the blame... ::Rolls his eyes:: I do hope our honorable judge has informed you of that...
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
@XO: You did what?!
CEO_LtJg_McKnight says:
OPS: Can we get a transporter lock inside the asteroid field?
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
@:: paces angrily ::
CNS_Ens_Starbuck says:
@Judge: You say that you live in a different quantum phase.... and again you say the Federation has methods of detecting these "phases"... Well in fact the Federation doesn’t have those means
XO_Cmdr_Mesme says:
@CO: I don't recall accepting anything sir, but I don’t think that is the most important thing to consider now.
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
CEO & OPS: I'll be in shuttle bay 2 prepping the runabout for launch if you fellows want to lend a hand.
Host Judge says:
@CNS: Yes you do, you have 3 capable detectors scattered through what you call research facilities
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
@ Alryane: what evidence have you? What motive? What proof?
CEO_LtJg_McKnight says:
CMO: Call Lt Yellow to assist you from engineering, he can accompany you on the mission.
Alryane says:
@CO: Captain.. Relax, our people... Well, we have the ability to probe other people's minds.. All of our officials that probed commander Mesme came to the conclusion that he feels he represents the average of the crew... As such, he was set to take the blame...
CNS_Ens_Starbuck says:
@Judge: So... they are in research facilities.... are any of those devices onboard of the USS Elara?
OPS_Ens_Conners says:
::Looking up from his console:: CEO: Sir, I might be able to get a lock on them, but perhaps we should try to contact them first?
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
::walks to TL:: Computer: Shuttle bay 2. *Yellow*: Lieutenant Yellow please report to shuttle bay 2.
Host Judge says:
@CNS: That surprised me as well. You go about shooting what you don't know or care to know ::shrugs::
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
*OPS*: Can you please assign a sensor specialist to meet me at the runabout please?
CEO_LtJg_McKnight says:
OPS: Mr. Conners, hail the asteroid. ::stops to think of what he said wondering if he is still sane::
Host Judge says:
<Lt Yellow>*CMO*: I am on my way
CNS_Ens_Starbuck says:
@Judge: If you are so omnipresent ..how many devices are there in existence and in possession of Starfleet?
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
*Yellow*: ::laughs:: My apologies Lieutenant, see you there.
OPS_Ens_Conners says:
*CMO*: Sure, I can send Lt Goodman to help you.
OPS_Ens_Conners says:
::Hails the asteroids:: CEO: Hailing the asteroid sir.
XO_Cmdr_Mesme says:
@Alryane: If you can read our minds then surely you must be able to tell that we are telling the truth and that this has all been a tragic accident
Host Judge says:
<Yellow>::arrives at the shuttle bay::
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
@ Alryane: as would any member of our crew
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
*OPS*: Acknowledged, tell him to bring his toolkit, we have modifications to do.
CNS_Ens_Starbuck says:
@Judge: So 3 devices if I’m not mistaken you said... how many quantum torpedo armed ships are in Starfleet?
CEO_LtJg_McKnight says:
::impatiently stares at the viewscreen expecting to see a rocky figure::
Host Judge says:
@::curious as to where the CNS is going with this:: CNS: Many of them. I do not know your fleets, I know of the detectors because they interfere with us
OPS_Ens_Conners says:
*Lt Goodman*: Please report to shuttle bay 2 for sensor modifications.
Alryane says:
@CO: You are missing the point here, captain.. Your commander Mesme, he not only feels he represents his crew.. Both the average person on it, as well as the entire crew, as their first officer...
CNS_Ens_Starbuck says:
@Judge: But over 3..right? So each ship when it fires a quantum torpedo it can attack your Empire... so we don’t have enough detectors to assign to every ship... thus proving our inability to detect your "phase"
Host Judge says:
@CNS: Yes, your mathematical deductions are correct. It is however your fault to arm your vessels with such destructive weapons, without knowing what you are shooting
Alryane says:
@XO: You claim this to be an accident... But every accident has a cause... And it's that cause that we are punishing you for...
OPS_Ens_Conners says:
<Goodman> OPS: Yes Mr. Conners. ::Pick up his gear and makes his way to the shuttle bay::
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
@ Alryane: that does not change the facts, he will be tried on the facts yes? and the facts are that however you wish to twist them, Mesme is not the individual responsible for firing, this was not an act of aggression, and your presumptions that we should be aware of your presence here is unfounded
CNS_Ens_Starbuck says:
@Judge: Considering this is our first contact between 2 races it is logical to assume we didn’t have any knowledge of your existence or vulnerabilities..
Host Judge says:
<Yellow>::in the shuttle bay waiting::
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
::enters shuttle bay 2,walks over to the sleek runabout, the Six Feet Under::
CEO_LtJg_McKnight says:
OPS: Any luck with those hails? ::walks over to the OPS console::
Host Judge says:
@CNS: You are a menace to this galaxy because of that dangerous ignorance. So you are assuming your guilt
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
@ Alryane: In fact if you want to find the root cause of these unfortunate events then maybe you should ask yourselves why we didn’t know of your presence?
Alryane says:
@::Frowns, raising his voice considerably:: CO: Tell me! How can firing your weapons not be an act of aggression??
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
@ Alryane: Because there was no intent
CNS_Ens_Starbuck says:
@Judge: ::yelling:: If we didn’t know you existed HOW CHOULD WE AVOIDED THIS?
XO_Cmdr_Mesme says:
@Alryane: The cause is that we are unaware of your existence, and probably of the damage our torpedoes do to your space.  Given time the Federation will roll out these "quantum detectors" to all their ships, then we will have a better idea of your locations, but until such a time we will have to work together to prevent any more accidents.
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
@ Alryane: there was no motive
OPS_Ens_Conners says:
CEO: I already tried to hail them sir, still waiting for a response. ::Tapping in the command to hail again::
Host Judge says:
@::ignores the yelling and maintains always the same tone:: CNS: By learning what you were shooting at
XO_Cmdr_Mesme says:
@::turns to the CNS:: CNS: Ensign, calm down, you will only aggravate the situation.
Alryane says:
@CO: The intent is not what matters here, captain! It's the FACT that all this happened, and the FACT that you fired at us... Whether or not it was hostile, is completely beside the point!
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
Yellow: thanks for getting here so quickly. Here's the deal. There are aliens somewhere in the asteroid belt. We can’t go in as the Elara is too big. We need to take the 'Six' in to use it's improved sensor pallet and scan for life forms.. including those of the command staff.
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
@ CNS: calm down
CNS_Ens_Starbuck says:
@CO: I'll try.. but I’m part Klingon ..remember?
OPS_Ens_Conners says:
<Goodman> ::Arriving at the shuttle bay::
Host Judge says:
<Yellow>CMO: The runabout is functional
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
@ Alryane: How can it be beside the point?! - that IS the point, you claim this was an act of aggression but none of the evidence supports it
CNS_Ens_Starbuck says:
@Judge: We are truly sorry for the casualties... but how can we learn something we do not know it exists? it's like wanting to learn how to be a divine being...
Host Judge says:
@ACTION: The CO's badge blips as OPS' com reaches him
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
@ Alryane: what are we on trial for here? Firing on the asteroid or having quantum weapons without truly understanding there effects?
Host Judge says:
@CNS: Next time you will do better, you will have learnt something. But Mr. Mesme will pay for what you did. And I am glad you are making this short and admitting your guilt
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
Yellow: Great, I need you to work with Ens Goodman to adjust the sensor pallet. We need it to be equal to the Elara's sensor labs.
XO_Cmdr_Mesme says:
@::puts his head in his hands and tries to compose himself::
Alryane says:
@CO: Captain! Not only are you ignorant to what I am saying, you are also ignorant to the rules of this very court! I would be VERY careful if I were you... Now, shall we get back to our point? What do you have to say to plead against punishment of commander Mesme?
CNS_Ens_Starbuck says:
@CO: ::whispering:: This is not good....
CEO_LtJg_McKnight says:
*CO* Captain, this is McKnight, please respond. ::jumps::
OPS_Ens_Conners says:
*CO*: Captain, Ensign Conners here. Sir, can you read me?
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
@ ::surprised :: *OPS* go ahead
Host Judge says:
<Yellow>::looks at Goodman, wishing he were allowed to work alone:;:
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
::sees Goodman:: Goodman: Glad you could get here so quickly, I need you to get to work with the Lieutenant to adjust the sensor pallet, it needs to be as good as the elaras.
OPS_Ens_Conners says:
*CO*: Sir, we have a transporter lock on you, would it be safe to beam you out?
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
Yellow/Goodman: I'll pilot the runabout in then get to work with you two by configuring the sensors.
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
@ Alryane: Ignorant of the rules of this court? of course I am - as we have already stated we had no prior knowledge of your existence, no knowledge of your legal system, no local council - the very point I made when you started this charade!
OPS_Ens_Conners says:
<Goodman> CMO/Yellow: Let's have a look at it then. ::Takes out his gear::
Host Judge says:
ACTION: The XO starts to get visibly dizzy
CEO_LtJg_McKnight says:
*CMO*: Doctor what is your status? ::turns to another comm line::
Host Judge says:
<Yellow>CMO: Yes Doctor
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
Yellow & Goodman: all aboard!!
OPS_Ens_Conners says:
<Goodman> ::Enters the runabout:: CMO: I'm all set doc.
CNS_Ens_Starbuck says:
@Judge: We developed technology... we did what every civilization does... it evolves... sometimes errors like this occur... but from errors we learn to avoid them in the future
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
@*OPS*: Negative, ensign, we are involved in a ::pauses:: trial and you must not interfere do i make myself clear?
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
::climbs aboard:: *CEO*: Just about to leave. I'll update you on our progress.
XO_Cmdr_Mesme says:
@::leans back in his chair to prevent himself falling off it::
Alryane says:
@CO: And how would your court act if we would come to you, not aware of your methods? What would they do? Would they just say 'hey, look, I'm sorry, I didn't know, here, go free'? Would they? No, of course they wouldn't! Someone has taken blame for an aggressive and criminal act against us... That's final...
OPS_Ens_Conners says:
*CO*: Yes sir, perfectly clear. I'll advise the CEO of your situation.
Host Judge says:
@CNS: I am so glad you agree with me! CO: Listen to your ... sentimental advisor .. counselor you call them. He admits to your guilt
Host Judge says:
@XO: Do not worry, the death is painless
CNS_Ens_Starbuck says:
@Judge: I only admitted to evolving.. not murdering in cold blood 50 persons
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
::enables maneuvering thrusters, pilots the 'Six' out of the shuttle bay::
OPS_Ens_Conners says:
CEO: Sir, I've got word from our captain. He says they're in some sort of trial, he does not want us to interfere.
Host Judge says:
@CNS: But that is just what you did
XO_Cmdr_Mesme says:
@Judge: You will forgive me if I don’t find that too comforting.
CEO_LtJg_McKnight says:
::turns his attention to Conners:: OPS: very well then, keep scanning the asteroid belt.
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
@Alryane: they would provide legal council, they would have an impartial jury, they would try the person who was legitimately thought to be responsible, they would have evidence which supported the accusations instead of contradicting them
CNS_Ens_Starbuck says:
@Judge: So if we were remained at fighting with sticks and stones  this would have not happened?
Host Judge says:
ACTION: The runabout swiftly leaves the Elara's shuttle bay
CEO_LtJg_McKnight says:
FCO: Helm, take us back 5.000 km ::sits down at the chair::
OPS_Ens_Conners says:
CEO: Aye sir. ::Gets back to his duty with scanning the asteroids::
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
*OPS* have the CEO download the ships records up to the point of firing the weapon and beam it down to me
Host Judge says:
<FCO Lost>::nods and does so::
CNS_Ens_Starbuck says:
@Judge: Let me ask a question.... in your whole civilization’s history... did it do ANY damage to ANY being by mistake?
OPS_Ens_Conners says:
::Hears the message from the captain:: *CO*: Aye sir.
Alryane says:
@CO: That's because your system of... Justice... ::Laughs at this word:: Works.. Ours is different... And as our dear judge must have told you already, you will have to abide by them, as we would have to abide by yours were we on your home world... As for the definition of the person legitimately responsible... I believe I discussed that at the beginning of this session...
Host Judge says:
@CNS: If you had bothered to investigate where you were throwing your sophisticated stones at this would not have happened
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
#*CEO*: Do we have a specific asteroid to target?
XO_Cmdr_Mesme says:
@::through the spinning world he takes a look at the CNS, it was a good question::
CNS_Ens_Starbuck says:
@Judge: I said once and I say again.... we didn’t have the resources to do that...
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
@ Alryane: Yes your right your system is very different to justice
CEO_LtJg_McKnight says:
*CMO* Yes, we are transmitting co-ordinates from the Elara’s helm station to you, stand by
CEO_LtJg_McKnight says:
::gets up and walks straight to the engineering console:: OPS: Understood ::starts downloading sensor logs to a pad::
Host Judge says:
@CNS: You deny the existence of the detectors I found in your database?
OPS_Ens_Conners says:
::Looking at the CEO:: CEO: Sir, the captain requested that you download the ships records up until we fired to a padd and beam it to him.
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
#::coordinates appear at the helm console, adjusts the runabout's heading accordingly::
CNS_Ens_Starbuck says:
@Judge: I explained that once.... if we had one of those this would have never happened ..but it might have happened with another ship without one of those detectors...
Host Judge says:
@ACTION: the XO starts feeling sleepy
Alryane says:
@CO: Could you define in clear, unveiling terms what justice is? Maybe if we can clear that up, we could get a step further towards solving this...?
Host Judge says:
@ACTION ... almost falling off his chair
CEO_LtJg_McKnight says:
OPS: I head him ensign, and I'm on it, prepare a narrow transporter beam and target the area around the captain ::puts the padd on the floor::
Host Judge says:
@CNS: Yes exactly and this will teach you to use the detectors with the weapons
CNS_Ens_Starbuck says:
@Judge: For once you assume our high-evolution put us into this situation... and second you blame our low-evolution for not being able to equip all our ships with it... you are confused...
OPS_Ens_Conners says:
::Working on the co-ordinates for the padd to be beamed down on:: CEO: Sir, ready when you are.
XO_Cmdr_Mesme says:
@::mumbles something to himself and nods his head:: *OPS*: Mesme to Conners, contact Federation Research and Development, get any information you can about 3 quantum detectors that are somewhere in the federation, and get it quickly ::catches the table for support::
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
#::looks back through the runabout:: Yellow & Goodman: How are the modifications coming, we will be ready to scan soon.
CEO_LtJg_McKnight says:
OPS: Energize ::looks at the padd one more time::
Host Judge says:
#<Yellow>CMO: We are almost done
OPS_Ens_Conners says:
::Taps the console to beam the padd to the captain::
CNS_Ens_Starbuck says:
@Judge: Why are you avoiding my question.... did your civilization EVER harm another one by mistake?
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
#::starts getting to work on the sensors configuration, inputting extra parameters to encompass other energy signatures:: Yellow: great, here's the sensor parameters. ::passes small padd with information:: Goodman: Goodman, I need you to work your wonders once this has been installed. I need to know if ANY life forms are out there, energetic or solid.
Host Judge says:
ACTION: The CEO's padd beams off the Elara and to the floor near the CO
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
#Goodman: Tell me when you're ready Ensign and I'll start scanning.
OPS_Ens_Conners says:
#<Goodman> ::Looking up from the open panel:: CMO: Ready sir, give it a go.
Host Judge says:
@CNS: Of course we did, and paid for it
CNS_Ens_Starbuck says:
@Judge: By who?
Host CO_Cpt_Timrok says:
@ Alryane: Justice is taking the appropriate action against the individual guilty of wrong doing :: bends down & picks up the PADD :: what we have here is only a case of misfortune with no ill intent & this trial - if you want to call it that is completely inappropriate & unjust
CNS_Ens_Starbuck says:
@Judge: The other species?
CEO_LtJg_McKnight says:
OPS: Now, we can only wait and hope for the best. ::sits on the captains chair for the 3rd time this day and checks the sensor data::
Host Judge says:
@CNS: Among others, by you
OPS_Ens_Conners says:
::Nods at the CEO and gets back to scanning the asteroids::
CMO_LtJG_Ordo says:
#Self: Here we go... ::initiates the broadband multi spectrum scan from the experimental sensor pallet. He sits and waits patiently for the results, hoping to locate not only the command staff, but also whoever has abducted them::
CNS_Ens_Starbuck says:
@Judge: So you apply your "trial" to every species... even if it were your fault. Maybe the other species had a more severe trial.... why did u not comply by its standards?
