USS GENEVA MISSION TRANSCRIPT – 10502.04

Hansre_Olpinfa says:
Last time, on the USS Geneva...
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
The Away Team was met by the proprietor of the corporation they had been dealing with, a Mr. Hansre Olpinfa. Clearly showing different beliefs and values than his younger subordinate, the Away Team begins to see disagreements and conflict, both inside the company, and outside.
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
Meanwhile, the Geneva crew continues to struggle with their decisions to what degree to help the ailing medical transport ship, now that Captain Shras has given them clearance to assist.
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
And now, the continuation...

$::piloting the shuttle::
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# ::shuffling down the corridors, holding onto the handrails on the side for support:: All: Really, don't get the wrong idea. My fellow citizens are extremely advanced in many ways. We've simply found the corporate structure to be the most efficient...
OPS_L`yaian says:
::sitting at OPS, possibly thinking too much for her own good... seems to happen when she stays still for so long..::
XO_Taal says:
$CMO: What is our estimated time to intercept?
CTO_Kizlev says:
OPS: I need a 'sitrep', Ensign. Did Ensign Keach's shuttle arrive safely?
CIV_Azanna says:
::perks her ears and tilts her head towards Kizlev::
CSO_Jakiel says:
#Hansre: Most efficient perhaps, but doesn't the pursuit of wealth open up problems of a moralistic nature?
CNS_Bauer says:
#::On a kind of make-shift tour which, feels more like an evasion on our host’s part. Being hidden and not in view of the proceedings going on outside, proceeds with caution::
TO_Keach says:
%::Picks up on the Captain’s signature and heads in that direction::
CMO_Kimura says:
$XO: Five minutes to intercept.
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# ::stops for a moment to look back at the CSO:: CSO: The art of compromise, I'm afraid. We struggled with those ideas for many multi-cycles in the government halls. But we compromised. We were so engrossed in the task of building the technology behind the light-ship.
XO_Taal says:
$CMO: Prepare to get within range of the tractor beam.
CNS_Bauer says:
#HANSRE: This may be a bad time for your planet to begin an association with the Federation. You seem to have a multitude of problems to contend with already.
CMO_Kimura says:
$::nods:: XO: We gonna pull them in?
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# CSO: Ideology... "got in the way.” ::gets a ghastly, incredulous look:: You can't tell me you haven't experienced situations where morality and ideology had to give way to pragmatism.
XO_Taal says:
$CMO: We will tractor them. As for the destination, I am uncertain where.
CTO_Kizlev says:
::gazes at the viewscreen awaiting the OPS' report, wondering if Rhianna is alright and is now worried about the Sinjin kid since sickbay reported in a few minutes ago::
CIV_Azanna says:
CTO: You alrright Kizzie?
CNS_Bauer says:
#HANSRE: It takes a lot of cooperation to make it in the universe. One needs to know about compromise and the art of communication. Your people are in so much turmoil solely amongst themselves.
CNS_Bauer says:
#HANSRE: It may not be the right time for Briengogh.
FCO_Williams says:
::check sensors:: CTO: The TO has reached the surface.
CSO_Jakiel says:
#Olpinfa: I am very familiar with compromise, sir. Our technology has now allowed us to follow ideology more closely. And to which side of the balance did you lean... ideology or pragmatism?
CMO_Kimura says:
$XO: Alrighty... will do. ::smiles::
OPS_L`yaian says:
CTO: Keach's shuttle made it to the planet safely, sir.
XO_Taal says:
$CMO: We will tractor to transport into orbit of the second planet where we will decide the most logical course of action.
FCO_Williams says:
::wonders what is distracting OPS::
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# CNS: I fear you are passing judgment too quickly, simply because you've seen one minor skirmish. It looks impressive, but really, this is by no means a majority of our people. JelonTek and Aquoton are but two companies in The Consortium. Each of us only has about 30 million employees. The planet's populace is over 14 *BILLION*.
CTO_Kizlev says:
OPS/TO: Good. That's one less thing on my mind.... ::goes over to tactical:: CIV: I just heard from sickbay that Sinjin is suffering from an unusual skin infection and has fallen into some kind of sleep trance. They cannot revive him.
CNS_Bauer says:
#HANSRE: I have not passed anything yet. I'm still taking it all in. Believe me; I am on your side. But, these things are complicated.
CMO_Kimura says:
$XO: What's the story on this transport?
CIV_Azanna says:
CTO: What? ::concerned:: What's wrrong with him? ::twitches tail nervously::
CTO_Kizlev says:
CIV: I thought since he helped save our lives on the Zenobia, you might want to know.
XO_Taal says:
$CMO: Story? As in tale or fable? Sensors are not detecting any forms of literature along the hull.
TO_Keach says:
%::Reaches the area where the tricorder picked up the AT's signatures::
OPS_L`yaian says:
::keeps an eye on the comm signals, keeping up with the daily functions of the ship, which of course aren't going to stop, just because of one little First Contact mission::
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# ::shakes head:: CNS: You sound like my senior vice presidents. Alluding to a quick gut reaction, then attempting to shy away from it when I call your bluff.
CMO_Kimura says:
$::chuckles:: XO: It's an expression. What do we know about that transport?
XO_Taal says:
$::continues to scan the medical transport::
CTO_Kizlev says:
CIV: The medics are unsure at this time. They are conducting dermatology tests right now, but his vitals are stable for the moment.
CNS_Bauer says:
#HANSRE: I'm just pointing out my concern that if your people are so involved with their own business it can't help but cause conflict when Briengogh begins interacting with the members of the Federation.
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# ::continues walking down the corridor, leading the group down a few ramps::
CIV_Azanna says:
CTO: Someone needs to be with him... I ...  ::looks down::
CNS_Bauer says:
#::Knows an insult when he hears it::
CTO_Kizlev says:
CIV: Grey? What is it? That's a look I haven't seen on you in years.
TO_Keach says:
#CO: I heard you had a little problem down here, I brought backup ::Pulls out the rifle ::
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# CNS: The same happened when we dissolved the government. The career politicians and bureaucrats screamed for multi-cycles. Within less than a year, they gave up. I *know* the same will happen with my people now; given this is another society-unifying event.
OPS_L`yaian says:
::looks up, blinking at the CIV, curious to know what’s happening::
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# CNS: We truly are a people that are quick and welcoming to changing ourselves, if we know it ultimately is for the better, despite people who are ingrained.
CIV_Azanna says:
CTO: Can't just leave a kid alone like that, Kizzie, somebody's gotta be therre forr him.
CNS_Bauer says:
#HANSRE: You make it sound so simplistic. 
XO_Taal says:
$CMO: Fascinating...
CMO_Kimura says:
$XO: Approaching the transport.
CNS_Bauer says:
#HANSRE: My concern is for your people’s psychological preparedness for these big changes you say they are prepared to make.
XO_Taal says:
$CMO: Engaging tractor beam.
XO_Taal says:
::engages tractor beam to tow the medical transport::
CSO_Jakiel says:
#Hansre:  You may want to more closely read the ideals of the Federation, sir. It will point to areas where our two ideologies differ.
CMO_Kimura says:
$XO: So what do with do with them? Take them back to the home planet? Or where they are going?
CTO_Kizlev says:
CIV: I agree, and I would go if I could, but my place is on the bridge.
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# CNS: You make it sound like I'm compiling an annual report for my stockowners. We've made drastic changes with no major problems, we can do it again.
OPS_L`yaian says:
::raises a hand:: CTO/CIV: I'm good with kids...I can go check up on him?
CNS_Bauer says:
#HANSRE: No one wants to change your beliefs or lifestyle. Your way of governing is strictly your call. We are just looking for an easy transition for Briengogh, if their application is accepted.
OPS_L`yaian says:
::tilts head to one side, still curious::
CIV_Azanna says:
::puts her paw on Kizlev's hand:: CTO: I'm no Fed lackey, I'm going to take carre of him.
XO_Taal says:
$CMO: We are to assist the transport however we can. It would be logical to tow the ship towards the second planet as was intended by the people on Briengogh.
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# ::opens a door leading into a major underground control center:: All: This way. ::looks at the TO joining the group:: TO: I don't allow security in this room.
XO_Taal says:
$::looks down at the sensors::
CNS_Bauer says:
#HANSRE: We are here to see if this is the time for Briengogh to take their next step, that is all.
XO_Taal says:
$::presses a few buttons on his console::
CTO_Kizlev says:
::smiles at L`yaian:: OPS: Thank you, but.... ::looks at the paw on his hand, knowing it will do no good to try and change her mind now:: CIV: Very well.
CIV_Azanna says:
CTO: Hey if ya want the kitten to go too, ya can. It's yourr brridge.
OPS_L`yaian says:
::shrugs when Grey says she'll go:: CIV/CTO: Okay... hope he.. or she.. is okay ::smiles::
XO_Taal says:
$CMO: Fascinating... it appears the occupants of the transport are under some form of induced coma.
CNS_Bauer says:
#::Notices Keach has joined the group:: TO: Good to see you, Ensign.
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# CSO: That would entail me actually having prior access to your "ideals,” wouldn't it?
CTO_Kizlev says:
FCO: Mr. Williams, what's the status of the Harkening at this point?
TO_Keach says:
#::Looks over:: CNS: Counselor, good to see you too
CMO_Kimura says:
$XO: Sounds like they just dump their incurables and let them die. How nice.
CTO_Kizlev says:
CIV: You may if you wish. I need the ensign here. Besides, I think Sinjin trusts you implicitly.
CNS_Bauer says:
#HANSRE: This is Ensign Keach. Captain Shras has asked him to join us.
CO_Shras says:
#TO: Please keep that away for now :: motion to keep the rifle to his side :: I don't want anyone to panic. Be careful, a riot is going on outside and I don't want our team to be armed.
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# CSO: When my people made the first radio contact, the impression we were given was of a multi-planetary, peaceful, all-sharing scientific body. I hope you're not judging us likewise against your ideals, considering that we don't even know what they are, past what little we know, yes?
CIV_Azanna says:
::nods:: CTO: Have fun with the ship, Kizzie. ::bows with a flourish and saunters for the TL::
XO_Taal says:
$CMO: The transport appears to be void of a crew. Your conclusion may be accurate, Kazue.
CSO_Jakiel says:
#Hansre:  No, sir, that means our ideals will be here for your perusal at your leisure. We will supply that information as soon as you wish.
OPS_L`yaian says:
::sits back again, since she's not going anywhere, humming a song::
TO_Keach says:
#::Does the rookie ensign thing and puts the rifle at his side:: CO: I am sorry Captain
CNS_Bauer says:
#HANSRE: We can all agree we have much to talk about.
FCO_Williams says:
CTO: Have not heard anything, so I assume all is going well with the recovery. But I will contact them for an update and get back to you.
CTO_Kizlev says:
::sighs as she exits:: Self: Fun? Perhaps in the old days..... Not now. ::takes his seat on the command chair, hating to be stuck in one place, watching everyone else put their lives at risk::
XO_Taal says:
$CMO: Are you able to determine the cause of the passenger’s ailments from here?
CIV_Azanna says:
::rides the TL, whistling a tune::
CTO_Kizlev says:
FCO: Thank you. Could I ask you a question, lieutenant?
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# ::gives a long-faced smirk to the CSO and CNS as they enter the control room::
CSO_Jakiel says:
#Hansre:  I have my own personal observations, but I will remain objective. I find it very interesting how your culture has evolved. You governmental structure is somewhat unique.
CMO_Kimura says:
$XO: No, all I'm reading is radiation. That may be from the engine. The patients could have other diseases.
CO_Shras says:
#TO: Is this your first “first contact mission” Ensign? You will see, it is very exciting
CMO_Kimura says:
$XO: We don't know what kind of fuel those engines run on, so it very well may be some radioactive material.
FCO_Williams says:
CTO: Certainly.
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# ::old fart wry humor:: CSO/CNS: You two really do remind me of my executive staff, compared to your Captain. They do all the talking; I just stand at the podium and look good.
TO_Keach says:
#CO: Yes it is sir; I don't want to make trouble
CIV_Azanna says:
::exits TL and jogs down the hall to sickbay::
XO_Taal says:
$CMO: Attempting to compensate for the scans... ::presses a few buttons on the console:: Are the readings more precise now?
CNS_Bauer says:
#::Looks at Jakiel, then at Keach with an expression of reassurance and support. Cuz the guys a real geezer::
OPS_L`yaian says:
::taps her nails on the console lightly, in time to the tune in her head::
CSO_Jakiel says:
#Hansre:  You do that well, sir. ::smiles at the elder man::
CNS_Bauer says:
#HANSRE: Yes, Sir. Well, there just seems like we have so much to say. I apologize for our enthusiasm.
CMO_Kimura says:
$::looks at her console:: $XO: Alright, looks like they all have radiation poisoning of some type.
CIV_Azanna says:
::enters Sickbay, still whistling and looks around::
CTO_Kizlev says:
FCO: I've never held the responsibility of starship command..... Was never fully trained in it.... ::stops himself, and sighs again:: ....no, it's nothing. Never mind. Please continue with what you were doing.
XO_Taal says:
$CMO: If we board, will we be at risk?
TO_Keach says:
#::Stands straight eyeing the room::
CO_Shras says:
TO: It is ok, unless you start shooting everywhere everything will go well. I asked you here because I know you can do the task in the required manner
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
ACTION: The Away Team enters into a cavernous, massive control center, the size of a convention center showroom floor. Littered with many control desks, cubicles, offices, and others, it's filled by hundreds of people, all coordinating the operations of JelonTek, especially space control.
CNS_Bauer says:
#TO: He means he doesn't think you're trigger happy.
CNS_Bauer says:
#::Walks into the impressive Control Center::
TO_Keach says:
#CO/CNS: I'll try not to let you down ::smiles::
FCO_Williams says:
CTO: No problem, mate. But if you have any questions you think I might be able to answer, then, let me know.
CTO_Kizlev says:
<T'Pin> ::is monitoring Sinjin's vitals in sickbay and notes the Caitian's entrance, but maintains her work::
CNS_Bauer says:
#::Smiles back:: 
CIV_Azanna says:
::looks around for Sinjin::
CMO_Kimura says:
$XO: Yes, it would be a risk.
CNS_Bauer says:
#HANSRE: So, what is all going on in here? It looks quite impressive.
CSO_Jakiel says:
# ::is immediately besieged with the emotions of the industrious employees::  Hansre:  Will we be allowed access to your work here? Especially where it concerns your space travel?
CTO_Kizlev says:
FCO: If it's no distraction, I was wondering if I could ask you.... do you remember where you were when the War broke out?
TO_Keach says:
#::Follows behind the other Starfleet officers::
CO_Shras says:
#TO: Have you come by shuttle or transporter?
XO_Taal says:
$CMO: Would you be able to create an inoculation to counteract the damage done by the radiation?
CIV_Azanna says:
::sees Sinjin and runs to his side:: Sinjin: Ooooohhh...
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# CNS: This is JelonTek Central Control. Mostly space control, as you can see by the status displays. But we have coordinating representatives from every department in the company here, working together to jointly plan projects and such. The actual development and such is done at other sites, obviously.
CMO_Kimura says:
$XO: Why are we going to board anyway? There is no need. We just tow them back to wherever.
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# CNS: I imagine you have something similar... at least I hope.
TO_Keach says:
#::Remembers his shuttle flight:: CO: By shuttle, my first time outside of a Holodeck
XO_Taal says:
$CMO: Observation.
CMO_Kimura says:
$XO: But yes, I have many kinds of inoculations for radiation sickness.
CNS_Bauer says:
#HANSRE: What are you working on know. Now that your light speed trek was such a success?
CMO_Kimura says:
$XO: I just wish I had my team with me if we are going to cure them.
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# ::hesitant at first, his corporate trade secrets being divulged:: CSO: I... ::sigh:: I guess. I'll have to inform the senior management staff, which will take time.
CO_Shras says:
#TO: Just remember we need to get that shuttle back too when we leave. I am ok with these people but Starfleet Command will have my head if we leave our technology here...
CTO_Kizlev says:
<T'Pin>::puts herself in front of Sinjin's bed:: CIV: Please, there are no visitors permitted at this time unless otherwise granted by command personnel or Dr. Kimura.
XO_Taal says:
$CMO: Well, you'll be able to take medical scans of the afflicted.
CIV_Azanna says:
::growls under her breath and pushes past her:: T'pin: Have to make surre he's alrright.
CNS_Bauer says:
#HANSRE: Jakiel is a scientist. Naturally curious like, your own Mr. Mirack. Please, tell us more.
CSO_Jakiel says:
# Hansre:  I see...  ::thinks for a moment for the correct phrase::  red tape.
TO_Keach says:
#CO: Yes sir, I won't forget
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# CNS: Quite honestly, ::chuckle:: I have no idea. The steering committees haven't had a chance yet to meet and discuss the next direction. I imagine it'd be planning the production version of our ship, considering The Consortium has awarded us the primary spaceflight contracts.
CNS_Bauer says:
#HANSRE: I see. Yes, that should keep things busy.  
FCO_Williams says:
CTO: I was on Earth; I have been off the flying roster for a few years trying to sort out a few personal demons.
CTO_Kizlev says:
<T'Pin> ::does not press the issue, but stands close by making sure the haughty Caitian doesn't touch the patient::
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# ::gets a blank stare, like an old man would likely get:: CO: Transporter... Holodeck... ?!? ::more of a scared voice, like he'd heard something ominous:: Starfleet Command??? Sounds military, to me. And you say your Federation is peace and happy.
CNS_Bauer says:
#::Looks to the Captain, in case he needs bailing out::
CIV_Azanna says:
::makes a soft whining sound and looks Sinjin over, trying to make sure he's okay::
CMO_Kimura says:
$XO: That's not going to do any good. I think I have enough stuff to cure about 10 people... if you want us to help them; I'm going to need to get more supplies from the Geneva. Can we do that?
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# All: Like a frumping contract... there's always loopholes and fine print...
CTO_Kizlev says:
<Sinjin> ::is in deep sleep in spite of the drugs in his system, dreaming of strange creatures, both of flesh and of errie crystal he never saw before::
CNS_Bauer says:
#HANSRE: There will be time for all the Federation details later. You expressed a need to speak... even implying Ensign Jakiel and I were too talkative like your Senior VIP's?
XO_Taal says:
$CMO: All the more reason for observations first. To gather the appropriate scans and study them at length before deciding on a course of action.
CO_Shras says:
#TO: These people look like the Ferengi but in some way they are...  less aggressive? Maybe it is just an impression....
CNS_Bauer says:
#HANSRE: Please, tell us about your employees.
CMO_Kimura says:
$XO: Alright.
CIV_Azanna says:
::kneels down next to his bed and sings softly to comfort him, much like when Atreyu was sick::
TO_Keach says:
#::Watches the CO:: CO: That would be my guess too sir
CTO_Kizlev says:
FCO: I see. I've battled my own demons as well. As much as I want to forget, I also seem to never want to forget.... if that makes any sense. ::sits back in his chair, thinking he's rambling again::
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
! <Harkening> COM: Geneva: Geneva, this is the USS Harkening. Be advised that we are nearing completion of our rescue operations. Also, we have begun treatments of an unknown person in a small craft, slightly damaged. Our engineering crew is assisting to repair the ship.
XO_Taal says:
$CMO: Set the computer for autopilot. We are going to transport aboard the vessel.
OPS_L`yaian says:
CTO: Transmission from the Harkening, sir, putting it on screen
CMO_Kimura says:
$XO: We have permission, right? ::sets the autopilot::
FCO_Williams says:
CTO: No....it makes sense. I have reconciled most of them, but some persist. I don't think they will ever be fully controlled.
CO_Shras says:
#TO: Don't hesitate if you want to speak with them too, the counselor and ensign Jakiel had all the time to interact until now, but you can have your chances too
OPS_L`yaian says:
::puts the transmission on the screen for the CTO::
CSO_Jakiel says:
#Hansre:  I hate to change the subject, but would I be able to visit your medical facilities and speak with your physicians there? I am very interested in the biological makeup of your people.
CTO_Kizlev says:
::sits up as the message comes up to view:: COM: Harkening: This is Lieutenant Kizlev of the Geneva acknowledging your signal. Do you require our assistance?
TO_Keach says:
#::Nods to the CO::
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# CO: And another thing... ::starting to remember slight details:: For as advanced as the Federation is sounding like, you can't tell me you all are in small few-people ships like you have outside. And you called for someone to assist Diversified’s transport ship. You're worried about me covering things up...
XO_Taal says:
$CMO: Yes, we have permission to do whatever we can. We are required to contact the Captain when we decide to do something more than observe and assess the situation.
FCO_Williams says:
CTO: While on earth, I spent part of my time as a member of an Accident Investigation Team. I remember one accident where two aircraft came together, killing a number of Special Forces Personnel.
CNS_Bauer says:
#HANSRE: I wouldn't mind interacting with some of your employees.
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# ::not quite in a contract-negotiation tone:: CO/CSO/CNS: I think both of us need to be on full disclosure... You're not alone, and you don't go from system to system in just those small pods, now do you?
CTO_Kizlev says:
<Sinjin> ::his left hand involuntarily twitches and flexes, as if trying to reach out for something::
FCO_Williams says:
CTO: The initial site was very traumatic, but what got me most, was that I knew many of the guys that were killed.
CIV_Azanna says:
::softly: Sinjin: Ayah-ho ayah-ho, Tlah honseh na hoh-ah, Ayah-ho ayah-ho, Heyowe halma-drru.
CNS_Bauer says:
#:: Lets the Captain field that last question::
CO_Shras says:
#Hansre: Our ship, the USS Geneva is waiting at the fringe of the system because we don't know how a ship that size can make you react
XO_Taal says:
$::stands up::
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
! <Harkening> COM: Geneva: Not at this time. The situation was not as grave as reported. The transport ship suffered major systems damage, but its warp core and primary nets are repairable. The transport and crew should be back on their way within a day or so.
FCO_Williams says:
CTO: And having to be there amongst all the carnage was very hard.... but I had to do my job and push all personal feelings aside until the job was done.
CMO_Kimura says:
$::gets up and goes to the back of the shuttle to get her medikit and extra tricorder:: XO: Catch this, Taal. ::tosses him the tricorder::
XO_Taal says:
$::catches the tricorder being tossed to him::
CTO_Kizlev says:
<T'Pin>::monitors the vitals on Sinjin:: Self: Fascinating.... I must conduct a bio-spectral analysis ::begins scanning with her tricorder::
CO_Shras says:
#Hansre: We don't want to alarm people when making first contact, we might have more advanced technology but we don't want that to be the basis of our first meeting. We are here to make a relation beneficial to both, not intimidate.
XO_Taal says:
$::opens it briefly to check the power supply and pockets it into his belt::
FCO_Williams says:
::stops talking, looks back to the CTO::CTO: I was jibbering on, sorry.
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# ::sighs, hunches over, his back hurting him... feels drained:: CO: Captain, look around you. The hundreds of people in this room have done the near-impossible over the past few decades. They are accustomed to the impressive. We're not hiding, neither should you.
XO_Taal says:
$::picks up a phaser, sets it to stun and holsters it::
CTO_Kizlev says:
COM: Harkening: Understood. We'll monitor your progress on sensors from here.
CO_Shras says:
#Hansre: Some races have panicked just at the fact that they were no longer alone in the universe.... Imagine seeing a big ship in orbit....
CMO_Kimura says:
$::opens the medikit and puts on a white armband with red cross denoting that she is a medical officer::
CIV_Azanna says:
::continues singing, hoping he'll feel better::
XO_Taal says:
$::programs the computer to transport him and Kazue back onto the shuttle upon command::
CTO_Kizlev says:
FCO: No... Your story is much akin to my own. I thank you for sharing that with me.
CO_Shras says:
#Hansre: Tell me, those communications you have intercepted, have you disclosed to all the planet inhabitants about it? Do they know there are people out there?
XO_Taal says:
$::scans the vessel, locates appropriate coordinates, and sets the transporter to begin its sequence in ten seconds::
CSO_Jakiel says:
#CO:  Captain, would it be possible to bring a few people such as Mr. Olpinfa aboard the Geneva?
XO_Taal says:
$CMO: The transporter is set to beam us aboard in 10 seconds.
OPS_L`yaian says:
::still humming quietly, and tapping her nails on the console whenever she isn't tapping in a command or verifying some function went through::
FCO_Williams says:
CTO: Until the job is completed, you cannot afford to be distracted by things you cannot change.
CMO_Kimura says:
$XO: Okay. ::stands next to him and holds onto his arm:: Ready! ::grins::
XO_Taal says:
$::transport is initiated::
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# ::can't believe he was asked such a stupid question:: CO: Of course they know! That's what unified my generation of people into starting our radical development. We all were riveted by the idea that we weren't alone.
TO_Keach says:

XO_Taal  (Transporter.wav)
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# CO: That's what brought us to this point. We wanted to make contact... badly. Every one of us.
CO_Shras says:
#All: Since we were so kindly offered a tour of these facilities I think we can extend courtesy to making the same offer to our guests, would you like a tour of our ship?
CTO_Kizlev says:
::looks over his shoulder:: OPS: How about you, ensign? You seem as if you have a story to tell. ::tries to look friendly::
OPS_L`yaian says:
::raises her eyebrows, and thinks:: CTO: Err... I wasn't even in the Academy yet, when the war started, sir...
CNS_Bauer says:
#::Looks on as the old man ponders the offer::
CO_Shras says:
#Hansre: I asked because some races had knowledge of our existence but only at the higher governing levels and such disclosure was never made to the general population
CSO_Jakiel says:
#Hansre:  What was primary motive in contacting us, if I might ask?
OPS_L`yaian says:
CTO: I was still with my family on their freighter... certainly was... eh... interesting, making trade runs at that time...
XO_Taal says:
$::looks around the darkened corridor and takes out his tricorder to scan the area::
CIV_Azanna says:
T'Pin: You ain't just gonna let him die arre ya?
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# CO: It is a personal childhood dream to meet people other than us. I'd be... flattered.
CMO_Kimura says:
$XO: I'll inoculate us when we get back to the shuttle. Let's check it out. ::walks a little ways down the corridor and calls:: Hello?
CTO_Kizlev says:
::chuckles lightly, keeping his antennae fixed in her direction:: OPS: No, I meant something else. Anything else for that matter. I cannot lead anyone on any mission unless I have something to remember them by.
XO_Taal says:
$::nods:: CMO: I do not believe anyone will be about to respond.
CNS_Bauer says:
#HANSRE: That may be a great idea. You could come see for yourself who we are. But, remember we are only a small representation of the Federation.
CO_Shras says:
#All: We will have to get back to our shuttles, is the path safe for us?
FCO_Williams says:
CTO: The USS Harkening reports that all is going well with the recovery; however, they request that we remain ready to assist if required.
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# CSO: Our motive? What's any race's motive? To make contact for the sake of it. You're the first people out of our star cluster that we've made contact with. That's reason enough. To validate that we aren't alone, and that we are but a small part of a larger galaxy.
CNS_Bauer says:
#TO: Can you secure our way, Ensign?
OPS_L`yaian says:
::blinks a few times, thinking, then tilts her head to one side:: CTO: Hmm, well, my brother made this flying toy with some supposedly spare parts, right before we were supposed to go through a rather dangerous area, and... well... we came to a dead stop right in the middle of the territory.
CMO_Kimura says:
$::walks into an adjoining room and sees rows and rows of sealed medical beds with people in them::
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# CSO: At least... that's my generation's motive. Unfortunately, the younger generations have been raised in our current societal culture, such as Ms. Gohgitem. They... have... other reasons.
CO_Shras says:
#Hansre: That is also our motive, to seek out new life and new civilizations....
TO_Keach says:
#CNS: I can ::prepares to lead a path::
OPS_L`yaian says:
::grins a little:: CTO: This was long before the war though... um, yea, he actually made the toy out of parts from the engines... Dad wasn't too pleased with him.
CMO_Kimura says:
$XO: Yeah... looks like they are in cryostasis of some sort. ::scans the first bed::
CO_Shras says:
#Hansre: In the end we are more alike
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# CO: Then it seems we aren't as vastly different as you think.
CSO_Jakiel says:
#Hansre:  And excellent reason. And we are as curious about you. ::inclines her head politely::  I will look forward to you visiting our ship.
CSO_Jakiel says:
#CO: Captain, would it be possible for any of the crew to remain longer on the planet?
XO_Taal says:
$::scans some occupants of the chambers:: CMO: They have been placed in an induced comatose state.
CNS_Bauer says:
#HANSRE: That’s a good answer, Sir. I'm not so sure Ms. Goghitem realized that a people’s technological advancement is only a small fraction of what the Federation looks at in new potential members.
CMO_Kimura says:
$XO: That's what I just said... Ugh... they aren't the prettiest of people, are they?
CTO_Kizlev says:
::smiles at the OPS's story, remembering hearing similar tales in years gone by::
OPS_L`yaian says:
::grins even wider:: CTO: It didn't help much that I crashed the toy into the helm control...::giggles::
CNS_Bauer says:
#HANSRE: It should be about, just getting to know each other.
Hansre_Olpinfa says:
# CNS: Ms. Gohgitem is... ::rolls eyes, tries to find the crafted words of an executive:: Young and ambitious.
XO_Taal says:
$::raises an eyebrow:: CMO: Do you think I'm pretty?
CTO_Kizlev says:
FCO: Thank you. Keep the engines ready to go at a moment's notice.
TO_Keach says:
#CO: Sir, I am not sure where your shuttle is
CIV_Azanna says:
::reaches out and lightly touches Sinjin's hand::
