Mission Summary
The CO and the XO are summoned to the Starbase for a briefing of some sort, leaving the CSO in command. However, shortly after, a package was beamed onto the bridge, containing two communicators. Fearing the worst, a search was initiated for the captain and the commander, and it was soon determined that these communicators belonged to them. However, the transporter beam was virtually untraceable, and the officer at the other end at the SB OPS is less than cooperative. Shortly after, however, after an away team was sent to the  Starbase, OPS determined that the crew were in the security office… where it was discovered that this was all a test designed to observe LtCmdr. Woo’s reactions.

Host CMO_Santiago says:
SUMMARY:  The USS Huron has returned to homeport of Starbase 71.  Once there commendations were given out for a job well done to the crew by both Capt Sheridan and RADM Skyler.   Also crew rotations occurred.  They received a new CTO, TO and an old face returned.  The crew are now on the ship awaiting their next assignment.

CNS-McIntyre says:
::looking over at the new TO, she wonders if they will meet before she has to ask him to her office officially::

Host XO_Knight says:
OPS:  Chris, has the resupply been completed?

CNS-McIntyre says:
XO:  Have you spoken to the CMO yet?

Host CMO_Santiago says:
<SB Ops> COM:Huron:  This is SB OPS, we need to speak to the Capt immediately.

OPS_Barnes says:
::checks his list:: XO: Almost sir, should only take a couple more minutes.

Host XO_Knight says:
CNS:  Not yet Randi.  Haven't had a chance, but it is a priority.

OPS_Barnes says:
COM: SBOPS: One moment.... *CO*: Barnes to Captain Sheridan.

Host XO_Knight says:
OPS:  Understood.  Let me know when they are complete.

CNS-McIntyre says:
XO:  Thank you... I guess I am being a little chicken about it.

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Wonders how long it will take to gel with the Security staff.::

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
*OPS*: Go ahead Chris.

Host CMO_Santiago says:
::Goes over the list of names... :: Self:  Eeeny meeny miny mo....who is first for the rubber glove treatment.

CEO_Hansen says:
::looks over her PADD of things that have to be done::

CTO_Peters says:
::Walks on to the bridge and goes over to her console::

Host XO_Knight says:
::chuckles::  CNS:  You?  Chicken?  Nah!

OPS_Barnes says:
*CO*: Captain, there is an incoming communication from the Starbase for you. Shall I send it to your ready room?

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
*OPS*: Please do Lt.

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CTO: Morning, Chief.

Host XO_Knight says:
CTO:  Has the Admiral's family been escorted off the ship?

CNS-McIntyre says:
::tries to cluck like a chicken::

OPS_Barnes says:
*CO*: Acknowledged. ::reroutes communication to RR::

Host CMO_Santiago says:
CSO:  Cmdr Woo My friend.  You are due for a physical, please report to my office.

CNS-McIntyre says:
TO:  Ensign, when you have a moment, I need to schedule you for your psych eval.

FCO_Roznine says:
::chuckles at the conversation behind him::

Host XO_Knight says:
CNS:  You'll never get a date that way Randi!

CTO_Peters says:
::Nods to the TO:: XO: I believe so sir

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
COM_SB_OPS: This is Captain Sheridan, go ahead please.

CSO_Woo says:
*CMO* A physical? Now? ::checks the chronometer on his console:: Alright... I'll be right down. ::slips padd in his pocket and makes way for the turbolift::

CNS-McIntyre says:
XO:  As if I had to worry on that score Sir! ::grinning::

Host XO_Knight says:
CTO:  I'd like a confirmation please.

Host CMO_Santiago says:
@COM:Huron:  Ma'am, you and Cmdr Knight are required on base ASAP.  Urgent meeting..  That is all I know.

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CNS: Sure, but I can save you the time.  I'm uptight, don't know when to shut up, and when I eat too much, I go  ::Pauses for effect.::  Blue.

Host CMO_Santiago says:
::Chuckles:: *CSO*:  See you when you get here my friend.

FCO_Roznine says:
::studiously stares at his console, trying not to laugh too much at Randi's words::

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
COM:SB_OPS: Understood. Sheridan out.

CSO_Woo says:
::hops into the turbolift:: Turbolift: Sickbay, please. ::grabs a hold of a bar on the sides as the turbolift starts moving::

CTO_Peters says:
::Looks over at the TO:: TO: has the admirals family been escorted off ship?

CNS-McIntyre says:
::begins to laugh::  TO:  I think you and I are going to get along just fine!  See me after your duty shift !  ::trying to stop laughing::

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
::grabs her tunic jacket and heads for the bridge and motions to Ethan::XO: A moment, Commander.
Host XO_Knight says:
CO: Of course.  ::gets up and heads over to the Captain::  What is it Captain?

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CTO: Aye, Chief.  Almost outran their escorts.

CSO_Woo says:
::steps out of the turbolift and hurries into Sickbay:: CMO: Doctor? ::looks around::

CTO_Peters says:
::Turns back to the XO:: XO: there gone sir

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
XO: Urgent message from the Starbase. Our presence is requested.

Host CMO_Santiago says:
::Hears someone come into sickbay.:: CSO:  Ahhh Eric that was quick.  ::grins and goes and gives him a hug.::

Host XO_Knight says:
CTO:  Acknowledged.  Thank you Ensign.

FCO_Roznine says:
::leans back in his chair, turning it so he can look at Randi:: CNS: So, did you enjoy the party? I noticed Shane did...

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CTO: I don't think they liked the escorts.  Next time I'll have them in dress whites and top hats I guess.

Host XO_Knight says:
CO:  Did they give you any further information?

CNS-McIntyre says:
FCO:  Yes I did, and so did Shane! ::smirking::

CSO_Woo says:
::smiles:: CMO: Haven't really seen you in a while... I suppose that's both a bad thing and a good thing ::chuckles::

FCO_Roznine says:
::grins:: CNS: Me too...

CTO_Peters says:
TO: why do you think that?

CNS-McIntyre says:
FCO:  So those tight pants worked for you?

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
XO: No, just that it was urgent. Find Commander Woo and inform him that he has the bridge until we return.

Host CMO_Santiago says:
::Chuckles:: CSO:  Well, a bad thing because I missed you and everyone on the Huron.  Hope up onto the biobed and we can get this over and done with.

FCO_Roznine says:
::frowns:: CNS: But they weren't tight Randi... your eyes need some testing.

Host XO_Knight says:
CO:  Understood.  *CSO*:  Eric, please report to the bridge.

Host CMO_Santiago says:
@COM:Huron:  Huron, what is the problem, did your Capt and XO get lost?

CNS-McIntyre says:
FCO:  Compared to what Roz? ::raising her eyebrow at him::

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CNS: I can see you now.  Why will it be different after the shift?  ::Grins.::  CTO: The way they high tailed it out of here. They couldn't seem to get off fast enough.  Unless they were just anxious to get home.  I guess that could be it.

FCO_Roznine says:
CNS: Compared to the previous pair at the previous party with the unfortunate results... this pair was positively billowing and very loose. ::grins::

Host CMO_Santiago says:
::Pulls out her tricorder and runs it over Eric.::

OPS_Barnes says:
::looks back at XO and CO:: COM: Starbase: I don't believe so.

CNS-McIntyre says:
TO:  Now is good for me... ::standing::
XO:  Sir, permission to leave the bridge and do my evaluation with the TO?

CSO_Woo says:
::jumps onto the biobed:: CMO: So... do I just sit... ::interrupted by the communication:: *XO* Er... I've actually just begun my medical examination... but I'll be there on the double. CMO: It seems they need me up there...

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
:;heads for the turbolift and waits for Ethan::

Host XO_Knight says:
TO:  Permission granted.

Host XO_Knight says:
*CSO*:  You'll have to finish at a later time.  I need you here now.

CNS-McIntyre says:
TO:  Let's go ::standing and waiting for him to follow her::

Host CMO_Santiago says:
CSO:  Just five minutes.  The ship won't fall apart from then.  Just appoint someone in charge of the bridge till then.

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Shakes head.::  CNS: It was a joke, I meant I can see you now...oh whichever.

CEO_Hansen says:
::notes the CSO's console on her list of things to do and heads to the science lab to fix it::

Host XO_Knight says:
CNS:  Before you leave Randi, can I see you for a moment?

FCO_Roznine says:
::waves over his shoulder at Randi and turns back to his console::

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CTO: Will you be all right if the Counselor hooks me up to her brain wave scanners?

CNS-McIntyre says:
XO:  Yes Sir ::walking over to him::  Sir?

CSO_Woo says:
CMO: No... no... I really should get up there... don't want to upset anyone ::laughs and hops off the  biobed::

CTO_Peters says:
TO: go for it, hurry back when you’re done, ok?

Host CMO_Santiago says:
CSO:  Chicken!  ::Laughs::  Ok, but you haven't escaped me my friend.  Muhahahah

FCO_Roznine says:
::taps in a few subroutines:: OPS: How's things with you, Chris?

CSO_Woo says:
CMO: Sorry - gotta run... ::hurries back to the turbolift hearing the ominous laugh from Sickbay...::

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CTO: You got it.  ::Walks towards the door, then hesitates when the CNS goes to the XO.::

CSO_Woo says:
::enters turbolift and sighs:: Turbolift: Bridge...

Host XO_Knight says:
::leans over and speaks so that others cannot hear him::

Host CMO_Santiago says:
::Chuckles and goes back to her list.::  *CNS*:  Randi, please report to sickbay so I can certify you fit for duty.

CNS-McIntyre says:
::listens as the XO speaks to her::

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
::taps her foot impatiently::XO: Commander, if you please.

CTO_Peters says:
::Wonders if she too will have to have a chat with the CNS::

Host CMO_Santiago says:
@COM:Huron:  Ok, everyone is impatient here, initiating transporter.

CSO_Woo says:
::steps off the turbolift as the doors open... and into the bridge:: CO: Captain?

CNS-McIntyre says:
::nods to the XO::  XO:  Aye Sir...

OPS_Barnes says:
FCO: Pretty well... wonder what our next assignment is going to be though.

Host XO_Knight says:
CO:  Yes Captain.  FCO:  You have the bridge until Commander Woo arrives.

Host CMO_Santiago says:
ACTION:  The XO and CO dematerialize from the bridge.

FCO_Roznine says:
::turns:: XO: He's... oh, never mind.

CNS-McIntyre says:
*CMO*:  Anita, I am having a session with the TO, I can come when I am finished with him.

OPS_Barnes says:
COM: Starbase: Acknowledged.... *CO*: Captain you're about to be.... beamed.

CEO_Hansen says:
::enters the science lab and heads over to the broken console::

Host CMO_Santiago says:
*CNS*:  Randi you haven't been certified for duty.  You can't see patients till then.

CSO_Woo says:
FCO: I have the bridge now, lieutenant. ::watches the XO and CO dematerialize:: OPS: Report, lieutenant.

FCO_Roznine says:
OPS: I wonder too, but not too much... most likely something dangerous and threatening to all.

CNS-McIntyre says:
TO:  My apologies, but she is right.  I will call you when she is finished with me.

CTO_Peters says:
::Begins to runs scans on weapons systems::

FCO_Roznine says:
CSO: Aye, sir.

CNS-McIntyre says:
*CMO*:  On my way Anita.

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Standing halfway between Console and Door, confused.::  CNS: Aye, Lieutenant.  Sure thing.

OPS_Barnes says:
CSO: Starbase got a little impatient and beamed the Captain and Cmdr Knight over... otherwise, everything is ship-shape, sir.

CNS-McIntyre says:
::walking to the TL she enters and says Sickbay::

CSO_Woo says:
OPS: Excellent. ::sits down in the center seat, and pulls out his padd from his pockets:: They have been summoned to the Starbase for a briefing, I gather?

CEO_Hansen says:
::puts her tool kit on the floor and pulls a panel off the side of the console::

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CTO: Looks like I've been postponed for a bit.  The good Doctor needs to see the Shrink first.

OPS_Barnes says:
CSO: I believe so, sir.

CNS-McIntyre says:
::exits the TL and walks down the corridor to sickbay and enters::  CMO:  Anita, where are you?

Host CMO_Santiago says:
ACTION:  A package materializes on the seat beside the CSO.   Addressed to him.

CTO_Peters says:
::Chuckles:: TO: hope she takes her time, I have a strange feeling I will have to see the CNS as well

CSO_Woo says:
OPS: Well... it seems to be another slow day... ::surprised as a package materializes next to him:: Good heavens... OPS: Where did the package come from?

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Nods, staring at the package, almost not noticing he's moving down towards it.::

Host CMO_Santiago says:
::Turns::  CNS:  I'm over here Randi.  I know you are busy so jump up onto the biobed and we will get this over with.

OPS_Barnes says:
::sees an alert light go off:: CSO: There's been a beam-in... ::turns around:: Ah, I see.

FCO_Roznine says:
::frowns:: CSO: Slow day? I think perhaps not.

CNS-McIntyre says:
::walks to the biobed she is indicating and jumps up on it::

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CSO: Sir, hold off a second.  Let me check it first.

CTO_Peters says:
TO: here did that package come from?

CSO_Woo says:
TO: Thank you, ensign. OPS: Where was it beamed from?

OPS_Barnes says:
CSO: I've tracked the transporter beam to the Starbase, sir

CNS-McIntyre says:
CMO:  Want me to lie down or sit up?

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Draws Tricorder.::  CTO: Unknown as of yet.  I wish I knew.

Host CMO_Santiago says:
::walks over with tricorder in hand.:; CNS:  So how have you been feeling Randi.  ::Smiles::

CEO_Hansen says:
Self:  Hmm ....  ::looks inside the console, trying to see why it doesn't work::

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Scans the package, looking for explosives or poisons.::

CSO_Woo says:
::takes a look on the surface for any labels::

Host CMO_Santiago says:
CNS:  Sit up will be fine.  ::runs the tricorder over her.::

FCO_Roznine says:
::watches the scene with interest::

CNS-McIntyre says:
CMO:  Just fine... I feel if I sleep again, I will wake up old and gray headed!  ::laughing::

CSO_Woo says:
::notices his name on the surface:: TO: Well?

Host CMO_Santiago says:
::Chuckles::  CNS:  That is a good sign, means your body has healed and doesn't need any more rest.

CTO_Peters says:
::Moves beside the TO:: TO: anything,,?

CNS-McIntyre says:
CMO:  You should know that already... Tessie has been the plague of my quarters! ::smiling at Tessie::

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Confused.::  CSO: Scans indicate a pair of comm. badges.  Strange.

Host CMO_Santiago says:
<Tessie> ::Grins at Randi::

CNS-McIntyre says:
CMO:  AND I highly suspect she "spiked" my food and water with sedatives!

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CSO: It looks safe, even if it's mysterious.

Host CMO_Santiago says:
::Snaps her tricorder shut.::  CNS:  Well everything looks good.  You healed up fine eventually.   You were very lucky.  ::smiles warmly::

CSO_Woo says:
TO: Comm. badges?? ::suddenly very worried...:: TO: Well, open the package! And identify the owners of these... ::dawns on him:: OPS: Lieutenant, hail the Starbase.

OPS_Barnes says:
CSO: Aye sir. 

FCO_Roznine says:
::frowns:: CSO: Surely you don't think...

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Opens the Package...cautiously.::

CSO_Woo says:
FCO: Just being cautious.

OPS_Barnes says:
COM: Starbase: Huron to Starbase 71, please respond.

CNS-McIntyre says:
CMO:  Great to know!  Now when is the next poker game... I believe I need to retrieve 2 bars of latinum from you!

FCO_Roznine says:
CSO: I can understand that... dare we test the theory?

Host CMO_Santiago says:
CNS:  Tomorrow night, Captains quarters.  ::Grins::

CNS-McIntyre says:
::raises her eyebrows in surprise::  CMO:  The Captain's quarters?  You finally roped her into the games?  ::laughing at the thought;:

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@::sits beside Ethan, and looks over at the table::XO: Well look at this!

Host CMO_Santiago says:
<SB Ops> COM:Huron:  Listen I've got agitated officials here, did you eject your Capt and XO.

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CSO/ FCO: You two don't think these are the Captain's and First Officer's, do you?  No, couldn't be...::Gulp.::

Host CMO_Santiago says:
::Laughs:: CNS:  She also wants to retrieve some latinum...  ::makes a notation on the chart.::  Ok, you are fit for duty my dear.

CSO_Woo says:
COM: Starbase: Good heavens... have you not received the captain and commander? OPS: Oh no... quick, trace the source of the transporter beam! I want specific coordinates!

FCO_Roznine says:
TO: I hope not... but it is a possibility

CNS-McIntyre says:
CMO:  Thanks... I will send the TO to you as soon as I am finished, ok?

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
FCO: Easy to check.  Computer: Locate Captain Sheridan.

Host XO_Knight says:
@CO:  But what are we doing here?  ::looks at the table in front of him::

CNS-McIntyre says:
::reaching for her COM badge::  *TO*:  TO, report to my office please.

Host CMO_Santiago says:
::Nods:: CNS:  No, I've done him a bit ago.  So he is your problem now.  ::Grins::

OPS_Barnes says:
::analyzes sensor readings::

FCO_Roznine says:
::closes his eyes:: ~~~XO: Ethan, where are you?~~~

CNS-McIntyre says:
CMO:  So you beat me to him huh?  ::grinning::

Host CMO_Santiago says:
<Computer> TO:  The Capt is not onboard the Huron.

FCO_Roznine says:
CSO: I'm trying more natural means, sir... well for me that is.

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@XO: Well there are four chairs and two of us. I guess that means someone else may be joining us.

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
*CNS*: Sorry Lieutenant, we have a bit of a mystery.  We'll have to postpone.

CSO_Woo says:
FCO: Then these communicators do not belong to the captain and the commander. But whom do they belong to?

Host XO_Knight says:
@CO:  Yes, but it looks like this is set up for a poker game.

CNS-McIntyre says:
*TO*:  I beg your pardon Ensign?  Would you care to explain that?

FCO_Roznine says:
::tries calling the XO again, and then the CO::

CSO_Woo says:
OPS: We're close enough that their communicators would pick us up. *CO* Woo to Captain Sheridan.

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
*CNS*: Sorry ma'am, no time right now.  Come up to the Bridge and you'll see.

OPS_Barnes says:
CSO: I can't locate the source of the beam, sir. They've been beamed several times to cover their tracks... I'll keep scanning. Recommend we raise shields to prevent further beaming.

CSO_Woo says:
COM: Starbase: We have a serious problem. I want to talk to the station commander.

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@XO: I think that's a good assumption Commander.

CNS-McIntyre says:
CMO:  Did you hear that Anita?  I wonder what is going on up there?

FCO_Roznine says:
::opens his eyes:: CSO: I'm getting no response sir, but that means several things.

Host CMO_Santiago says:
ACTION:  No action from Capt Sheridan.

CNS-McIntyre says:
~~~FCO:  Roz, what the heck is going on up there?~~~

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
*Sec*: Go to condition yellow, be ready to move.  We may have a situation here.

Host CMO_Santiago says:
CMO:   I don't know Randi.  You better get to the bridge I'll join you in a bit.

CSO_Woo says:
*CNS* Counselor, I require your presence on the bridge. I'm afraid something catastrophic may have happened.

FCO_Roznine says:
~~~CNS: Ethan and the Captain disappeared and their badges beamed back to the ship. I can't get them telepathically either.~~~

CNS-McIntyre says:
::nodding to Anita she jumps off the biobed heading for the bridge::

CEO_Hansen says:
::makes a few adjustments to the inside of the console and checks to see if it works::

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
OPS: Can the computer identify where these badges came from?

CNS-McIntyre says:
*CSO*:  On my way Sir, entering the TL now.

Host CMO_Santiago says:
@<SB OPS> COM:Huron:  What in the blazes is going on there?  You went to Yellow Alert in Space Dock!!  There is nothing happening except for you loosing your staff.

Host XO_Knight says:
@watches as a man enters the room::

CSO_Woo says:
COM: Starbase: I'm afraid something is happening indeed... we transported our captain and commander several minutes ago. Or, rather, the Starbase did.

OPS_Barnes says:
TO: The package came from the base, Ensign. 

Host XO_Knight says:
@<Gorch> CO/XO:  Well, well, look what we have here.

CNS-McIntyre says:
::exits the TL onto the Bridge::  CSO:  Sir, what is happening?  Roz said the CO and XO have disappeared?

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@::a tall man in a Starfleet uniform enters the room:: <Adm_Clark>CO/XO: Welcome! ::smiles at Gorch::

CSO_Woo says:
OPS: That's not good enough, lieutenant. Recalibrate the sensors - I don't care if it's impossible.

Host CMO_Santiago says:
@<SB OPS> COM:Huron:  We transported nobody.  YOU SPACED YOUR CAPT AND XO!!!

FCO_Roznine says:
::raises an eyebrow at SB_OPS's words::

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CTO: Chief, this is strange.  Really strange.  Can I tap the badges?  See what happens?  Maybe it's an invitation...albeit a weird one.

CSO_Woo says:
CNS: We can't contact the captain and the commander...

CNS-McIntyre says:
::looks at Roz::

CNS-McIntyre says:
CSO:  What do you mean, can't contact them?  Where did they go?

CTO_Peters says:
TO: not yet, can we find out whose they are for sure?

FCO_Roznine says:
CNS: I tried calling them, but my range isn't good... perhaps you have better luck?

CSO_Woo says:
COM: Starbase: That's utterly ridiculous! We did no such thing - the Starbase initiated the transport!

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@::smiles at Gorch::Gorch: Well long time no see. :;extends her hand::

OPS_Barnes says:
COM: SBOPS: Negative. There IS a definite trail, and I'll find where it leads. ::Stands up and walks to Sci console at the back of the bridge, and begins a more intensive scanner pattern::

CNS-McIntyre says:
CSO:  Sir, would you like me to try mentally?

Host CMO_Santiago says:
@<SB OPS> COM:Huron:  We did not!  ::Insulted::  We haven't contacted you in eons.

Host XO_Knight says:
@Adm/Gorch:  Looks like someone's in the mood for a little poker.

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@XO: Ethan, you know these fine gentlemen I take it?

CNS-McIntyre says:
::reaches her seat on the bridge and sits down, waiting for Eric's answer::

CSO_Woo says:
COM: Starbase: Then we have a serious problem. Someone else must have beamed them off the starship... CNS: Yes, please... Dylan has been trying so, but he's met with little success.

Host XO_Knight says:
@CO:  We have met a few times.  Some of my best games were played when they've been around.

OPS_Barnes says:
::looks up from console, gravely:: CSO: Commander... I've correlated the badge's registration signature... they belong to the Captain and Cmdr Knight...

CSO_Woo says:
*XO* Woo to Cmdr. Knight. Please respond!

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CTO: I think so.

CTO_Peters says:
Computer: can you identify to whom these commbadge belong too?

CNS-McIntyre says:
::closes her eyes and begins to relax::

Host CMO_Santiago says:
@<SB OPS> COM:Huron:  Don't try and blame us because you lost your command crew...  ::Whispers::  Can you send Cmdr Whitey there too wherever it is you sent them.

Host CMO_Santiago says:
<Computer> CTO:  The badges belong to Capt Sheridan and Cmdr Knight.

CSO_Woo says:
COM: Starbase: How dare you speak to me in that tone of voice! I WILL speak with the Station commander NOW!

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@All: Shall we get started? ::moves to the table and pulls her her chair::

Host CMO_Santiago says:
<SB OPS> COM:Huron:  Touchy touchy!

CNS-McIntyre says:
CSO:  Sir, I am not able to contact them mentally.

Host XO_Knight says:
@CO:  So Captain, you ready to do some serious whooping to these guys?

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Smacks console.::  Self: Never leave the investigation to others.  CTO: Sorry Chief, my fault.  I thought it was checked.

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@XO: It's going to be my pleasure Ethan.

CNS-McIntyre says:
::jumps and opens her eyes when the TO hits the console::

CSO_Woo says:
COM: Starbase: If you do not contact the Station Commander NOW... I will make you feel SO HORRIBLE you'd wish you were still in Grammar School.

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CNS:  Sorry ma'am, lost it for a touch.

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@ADM_Clark: You deal Admiral.

CSO_Woo says:
OPS: Any luck so far? I mean it, we can't sit for much longer.

Host XO_Knight says:
@Adm/Gorch:  Hope you brought a lot of latinum.....I feel real lucky!

CNS-McIntyre says:
TO:  Are you prone to fits of violence Ensign?  ::trying to relieve his stress::

Host CMO_Santiago says:
<SB OPS> CSO:  Horrible...  ::Laughs::  I’m shaking in my boots... I'm sorry the station commander is indisposed at the moment.  Unless you want me to interrupt his hourly constitutional.

CSO_Woo says:
CNS: Counselor...

FCO_Roznine says:
CNS: I suppose it will be of little use if we tried together?

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CSO: At least this means they aren't far, within 40,000 KM.

CNS-McIntyre says:
CSO:  Sir?

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@<ADM_Clark>CO: Right-o. Ok 5 card stud, jacks are wild.

CSO_Woo says:
CNS: The captain and commander! Have you made contact with them?

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CNS: No, just mad at myself for not checking myself.

CNS-McIntyre says:
CSO:  No Sir...

OPS_Barnes says:
::looks appalled at the SBOPS:: CSO: Working on it, sir... nothing so far.

Host XO_Knight says:
@<Gorch> XO:  Not going to make it that easy for you.  ::grins::

FCO_Roznine says:
CSO: we have to consider the possibility that they are either unconscious or in shielded surroundings where we can't contact them.

CSO_Woo says:
COM: Starbase: Get him now! All: Obviously we're not getting anywhere. We'll go to the Starbase ourselves and track them down.

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@::watches as the Admiral deals the cards::

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CTO: Let's make sure they stay close.  Have any ships departed in the last 20 minutes?

CNS-McIntyre says:
CSO:  Wherever they are, or whoever has them, might have placed a neural inhibitor on them Sir.

Host XO_Knight says:
@::watches as the cards are being dealt::

Host CMO_Santiago says:
@<SB OPS> COM:Huron:  If you insist SIR!  ::Changes his voice to a nasally sound.::  This is Cmdr Whosit, can I help you?

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CSO: Security is ready to assist, should we need it.  Six men on duty, six more preparing now, the rest on call.

CNS-McIntyre says:
TO:  Excellent idea...

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@<ADM_Clark>XO: Ok Ethan, can you open?

CSO_Woo says:
CNS, OPS: Are you telling me there is no way to track them??

CTO_Peters says:
TO: see if we can scan the station, or, and any ships docked for them

CNS-McIntyre says:
CSO:  Not mentally Sir.. perhaps they were taken on another ship?

Host XO_Knight says:
@Adm:  You bet.  I open with two bars.  ::tosses it onto the table::

OPS_Barnes says:
CSO: It'll take a few hours to trace this intricate transporter pattern.... Perhaps we can have the Starbase assist?

CNS-McIntyre says:
OPS:  Are there any traces of the beam that took them?

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@Gorch: Ok Gorch, you?

OPS_Barnes says:
CNS: Aye, I'm working on it counselor.

CSO_Woo says:
COM: Starbase: Okay. You listen to me, and you listen to me good. We have just LOST our command staff. We have NO IDEA where they are. You WILL cooperate. That is an order!

Host XO_Knight says:
@<Gorch> CO:  I'm in.  ::tosses in his two bars::

FCO_Roznine says:
CSO: Perhaps if Randi and I took Victoria onto the base and look there?

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@All: Ok, I'm in for two. ::tosses hers on the table::

Host CMO_Santiago says:
@<SB OPS> COM: Huron:  So you did loose your command staff.... well if you insist.  Maybe you should..... look for them?

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CTO: Yes ma'am.  ::Moves back to Tac 2 to begin scanning the Starbase, isolating any areas with a Betazoid and a Betazoid/ Human in close vicinity.::

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@::looks over at the Admiral and waits::

CSO_Woo says:
FCO: That is an excellent idea, it seems. Take the CTO with you.

CTO_Peters says:
TO: no ships have left, so they must still be here somewhere.

Host XO_Knight says:
@Adm:  Well Admiral, looks like all eyes are on you.

FCO_Roznine says:
::nods:: CNS / CTO: Ready for some pavement pounding?

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CTO: Good, then I didn't loose them completely yet.

CSO_Woo says:
CTO, FCO, CNS: Go aboard the Starbase and try to track them down from there. *CEO* Lieutenant, report to transporter room one.

CTO_Peters says:
FCO: pavement pounding?

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@<ADM_Clark> ::grins and tosses his two bars on the table::All: There!

CNS-McIntyre says:
FCO:  You bet! ::grinning::  I think we make a pretty good team Roz...

CEO_Hansen says:
::looks up from her work, slightly confused::  *CSO*:  Um ... okay ...

CNS-McIntyre says:
CTO/TO:  We will have to tell you a good tale once this is over ::walking into the TL with the others::

FCO_Roznine says:
::nods:: CNS: I suggest we split up once we get there. You and Michelle and me with Victoria.

CSO_Woo says:
COM: Starbase: We are looking for them. I assure you, we are looking. ::under his breath:: This is unreal... ::normal voice:: The search will go... MUCH EASIER... if you cooperate.

CEO_Hansen says:
::puts the panel back on the side of the console and gets to her feet::

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@All: Anyone bring food and drink?

CTO_Peters says:
::Follows the CNS:: TO: oh, may want to ask the Station to delay any ships leaving

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CNS: Can we do it around the campfire, toasting Marshmallows?

FCO_Roznine says:
::goes to the TL:: CTO: Old expression, it just means you resort to walking and looking.

CSO_Woo says:
COM: Starbase: We are transporting some officers over to conduct a search. Requesting security backup.

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CTO: Aye ma'am, although they don't sound too cooperative.

CEO_Hansen says:
::heads to the TL and directs it to transporter room one::

OPS_Barnes says:
CSO: Sir, a moment...

CTO_Peters says:
TO: make them!

CNS-McIntyre says:
FCO:  We need to check with security once we get on the base... perhaps they may have something... Miccy looks like you are with me!

Host CMO_Santiago says:
@<SB OPS> COM:Huron:  They are in the brig, I suggest you start there.

CSO_Woo says:
::walks over to the OPS' console... feeling a bombshell is about to be dropped on him:: OPS: Yes, lieutenant?

FCO_Roznine says:
::nods:: CNS: Good idea, I'll have the chief beam us to that area.

CSO_Woo says:
COM: Starbase: I BEG your pardon??

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
Com: Starbase: This is Ensign Ec'Thel'Ion of the USS Huron, while we conduct our missing persons search, we have to request a hold on any ships departing the station.

CNS-McIntyre says:
::nods to Roz::

FCO_Roznine says:
::enters the TL with the two women:: TL: Transporter room 1.

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@<ADM_Clark>All: Oh I forgot. Let me take care of that. ::taps his badge::SB_OPS: Where's that food we ordered?

Host CMO_Santiago says:
@<SB OPS> Adm Clark:  Materializing now!

OPS_Barnes says:
::mutes the channel:: CSO: Sir, are you positive that we should be using the transporter to put them on the Starbase? Considering what has happened, that is. 

CTO_Peters says:
::Nods the CNS::

Host CMO_Santiago says:
ACTION:  Hordes of Food appear in the room...

FCO_Roznine says:
CTO: By the way, I know we haven't been formally introduced. I'm Dylan Roznine... but call me Roz. ::smiles::

Host XO_Knight says:
@All:  Now that's more like it!

CNS-McIntyre says:
CTO:  Yes, and I am Randi, nice to meet you again ::smiling at her::

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@All: Oh this is great. Dig in gentlemen.

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
OPS: We know they disappeared, this time we can keep an active scan.

CSO_Woo says:
OPS: Hmm... Officer thinking, lieutenant. *FCO* Dylan, scratch the transporter. Use the airlock instead - I'm not sure we can trust the transporter.

CNS-McIntyre says:
::steps up on the transporter padd and waits::

FCO_Roznine says:
::exits the TL and leads them to the TR:: CNS/CTO: So we start with the security office and make our way from there.

CTO_Peters says:
FCO: hi, the names Miccy CNS: nice to meet you again ::Smiles::

CSO_Woo says:
*FCO* Dylan? Understood?

OPS_Barnes says:
CSO: I'll open the channel again, sir. ::unmutes the channel::

CEO_Hansen says:
::walks into the transporter room::

FCO_Roznine says:
*CSO*: Understood, sir. ::sighs:: *CEO*: Vic, meet us at the docking port.

CNS-McIntyre says:
::looks at Roz::  Well I guess we walk over ::stepping down again::

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@Gorch: Well gonna up the ante or what?

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
*Sec*: I need additional eyes for our search, Alpha Team, go to the Shuttlebay and use the Shuttle scanners to search any local vessels for a Betazoid and Betazoid/ Human in close proximity.

CSO_Woo says:
COM: Starbase: Please ensure that a security contingent will be present at the airlock.

FCO_Roznine says:
::turns:: CEO: Oh, there you are.

CEO_Hansen says:
FCO:  Um yeah ... what's going on?

Host CMO_Santiago says:
@<SB OPS> ::Panics like the 15 year old brat he is.:: COM:Huron:  Errrr they are busy.

Host CMO_Santiago says:
ACTION:  The Huron Crew enters the station.

FCO_Roznine says:
CEO: The Captain and Commander Knight have disappeared. We're going to look for them.

CSO_Woo says:
COM: Starbase: NOW... Cadet, I'm guessing?

OPS_Barnes says:
::returns to tracing the transporter beam::

CEO_Hansen says:
FCO:  Disappeared??

Host XO_Knight says:
@All:  Well, time to see who's got it.  Let's see the cards.

CNS-McIntyre says:
FCO:  Miccy and I will head to security, why don't you start in the office area?

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@Gorch: Ok let's see what you have.

CSO_Woo says:
*FCO* Dylan, report. Are you on the Starbase?

FCO_Roznine says:
@::walks the last bit towards the brig area:: CEO: Yes, just got beamed off, apparently to go to the station, but they don't know anything.

Host CMO_Santiago says:
@<SB OPS> COM:Huron:  Ummmmm Ummmmmm ::Nobody told him he was going to get yelled at.::

CTO_Peters says:
@::Leads the way to security:: CNS: you coming? ::Smiles and picks up the pace ::

FCO_Roznine says:
@*CSO*: We're just about at the security offices, sir.

CNS-McIntyre says:
@CTO:  Right beside you ::grinning::

CEO_Hansen says:
@::walks along beside Roz::  FCO:  That's odd ...

Host XO_Knight says:
@::lays his cards down::  All:  Three tens.

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
*CMO*: Doctor, Ensign Ec'Thel'Ion here, do the Captain or First Officer have any unusual Bio readings we could scan for if they were off ship and we were looking for them?  Artificial organs, that sort of thing?

FCO_Roznine says:
@CNS: Let's all start at security, then we don't have to repeat info to each other later.

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@<Gorch> ::grins:: ADM_Clark: Admiral, you're next.
CSO_Woo says:
COM: Huron: Cadet! OPS: Progress, lieutenant? ::starting to develop a HUGE headache::

FCO_Roznine says:
@CEO: Odd is not the word. Disconcerting is more like it.

CNS-McIntyre says:
@FCO:  Fine with me ::all four walk into the security office::

CTO_Peters says:
@::Gets to the security office and looks around::

CEO_Hansen says:
@FCO:  That too ...

Host CMO_Santiago says:
<SB OPS> ::Crying:: COM:Huron:  I'm not a cadet! ::Blows his nose into the com.::

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@<ADM_Clark>All: A lousy pair of eights. :;throws them down::

FCO_Roznine says:
@::looks around security:: All: Hmmm... do you hear something towards the cells?

OPS_Barnes says:
CSO: Aye sir, I've narrowed the possible locations... They are somewhere between decks 22 and 4 on the Base.

CNS-McIntyre says:
@FCO:  Yes, and the voices sound familiar.  ::puzzled::  Shall we take a look?

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@XO: Ethan looks like it's you and me. Whatcha got?

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Narrows the search teams parameters to between decks 4 and 22.::

CSO_Woo says:
*FCO* Dylan, we've new information... Barnes has traced the transporter beam to somewhere between decks 22 and 4.

CTO_Peters says:
@::Nods to the FCO and cautiously walks towards the cells::

FCO_Roznine says:
@::nods:: All: Lets. ::walks towards the holding area.::

Host XO_Knight says:
@::a big grin comes across his face as he sees what the Admiral has::

CNS-McIntyre says:
@::follows the sounds of familiar voices::

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CSO: I'm scanning the area now, having security scan with the shuttle sensors.

CEO_Hansen says:
@::walks along with them, still trying to figure out what exactly is going on::

CTO_Peters says:
@::walks into the holding area::

FCO_Roznine says:
@CNS: Could it be?

CNS-McIntyre says:
@::walks to a door and peeks in::  FCO:  Take a look for yourself ::grinning at him::

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@XO: C'mon Ethan, let's see them

OPS_Barnes says:
CSO: I've just lost contact with the away team, sir.

FCO_Roznine says:
@::peers around the corner and starts to grin:: CNS: Yes, it is.

CSO_Woo says:
*FCO* Dylan? OPS: What's happened?

CEO_Hansen says:
@All:  Someone care to enlighten me?

FCO_Roznine says:
@::turns:: CEO / CTO: Seems we found our lost sheep...

Host XO_Knight says:
@::lays his cards down::  All:  Full house.  Three aces and a pair of ladies.

OPS_Barnes says:
CSO: The signal is being blocked in the area of the security office.

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Eyes widen in shock.::  Self:  No!  Not another team!  ::Settles down.::  OPS: Where were they when we lost contact?

CSO_Woo says:
OPS: I assume that's intentional!

FCO_Roznine says:
@::walks in applauding:: XO: Well done, sir. CO: Captain. ::looks at the other two::

OPS_Barnes says:
CSO: There is virtually no way this could be an accident, sir.

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@::laughs and throws down her cards::XO: I knew it! Well done, Ethan. I only had a pair of fours.

CEO_Hansen says:
@::blinks::  FCO:  Here??

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CSO: Shall I ready security teams?

CTO_Peters says:
@::Follows the FCO::

FCO_Roznine says:
@CEO: Yes, Vic, right here.

CNS-McIntyre says:
@CO/XO:  Well you two... and just whom do we report this situation to?  ::chuckling at them::

CSO_Woo says:
COM: Starbase: Cadet... this is no time to be crying. PLEASE. Show me that you are a good officer - and please, patch us through to the security offices now.

CEO_Hansen says:
@FCO:  And they didn't tell anyone?

Host XO_Knight says:
@All:  I told you.....feeling really lucky today!

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@:;turns to see members of her crew::All: Welcome. Come and join us won't you?

Host CMO_Santiago says:
@<SB OPS> ::Crying:: COM:Huron:  I can't, they will get mad at me!  I promised!

CTO_Peters says:
@::Smiles:: CNS: would you mind leaving the security office... and tell I assume a very worried CSO what’s happened

Host XO_Knight says:
@::motions for them to join them::  All:  Pull up a seat.

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CSO: From the evidence, can we really expect to gain contact with them?  Obviously the offices have been compromised!

FCO_Roznine says:
@::grins:: CO: We'd love to Captain, but perhaps we should let the ship know... Commander Woo is ready to rip the poor guy at SB OPS a new one.

CSO_Woo says:
OPS: You know what? Beam me and the TO over to the SB OPS. Maybe then, we can get some answers.

OPS_Barnes says:
::tries to restrain going out of order and yelling at SBOPS, goes back to his scan instead::

CNS-McIntyre says:
@FCO:  He deserves it Roz... I would much rather watch Eric rip him to shreds!  ::laughing::

OPS_Barnes says:
CSO: Aye sir...

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@FCO: Roz, just take a seat and have something to eat.

CNS-McIntyre says:
@XO:  Ok Sir, move over and let me sit down... I need some new shoes!

CTO_Peters says:
::nods to the XO and sits down:: XO: so what is this all about?

OPS_Barnes says:
::adjusts some settings:: CSO: Ready for transport.

CSO_Woo says:
OPS: Energize. NOW. ::sighs::

Host XO_Knight says:
@FCO:  Yes Dylan, take the seat next to mine.

FCO_Roznine says:
@::pulls up chairs for the ladies with him and takes a seat next to Ethan:: CO: If you insist.

OPS_Barnes says:
::moves his hands up and down the triple bars::

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Smiles.:: Self: At last, clobbering' time.  ::Turns security over to Ensign Whatsyourname and grabs a Type III from the locker.::

Host XO_Knight says:
@CTO:  Just a friendly game of poker.  You play?

Host CMO_Santiago says:
ACTION:  Cmdr Woo Is transported to SB OPS in front a quivering Don Markie, the Commander's Son.

CNS-McIntyre says:
@CO:  Ok Captain, you ready to contribute to the Randi Fund?

CTO_Peters says:
@XO: That I do ::Smiles::

FCO_Roznine says:
@CNS: Not on your life, miss, I need a new pair of pants.

Host CMO_Santiago says:
ACTION:  The TO for some reason was forgotten

CSO_Woo says:
@TO: We will have a brief TALK with the cadet... and then we are going straight for the security office. Something’s happening there.

CEO_Hansen says:
@::stands off to the side and just watches::

CNS-McIntyre says:
@FCO:  How true Roz... ::rolling with laughter::

Host CMO_Santiago says:
ACTION:  2 secs later the TO appears beside Cmdr Woo.

CSO_Woo says:
@::looks around:: TO: Ensign? *OPS* Where is the TO? Don: YOU!

OPS_Barnes says:
TO: What happened? 

FCO_Roznine says:
@CEO: Vic, come on, sit down.

Host XO_Knight says:
@CTO:  Nice way to get introduced to some of your fellow crewmembers.

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@::raises an eyebrow at Randi::CNS: Now Randi, I'm sure you understand the situation here.

OPS_Barnes says:
::watches the TO dematerialize:: Self: Ugh.

Host CMO_Santiago says:
<Don> ::Screeches at the sight of Cmdr Woo.::

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
OPS: What happened?  ::Itching to do SOMETHING about...calms down a touch when the Transporter takes hold.::

CEO_Hansen says:
@FCO:  I'd rather not ...

Host XO_Knight says:
@::looks over at Dylan::  FCO:  Looks like it's your deal Dylan.

OPS_Barnes says:
::takes the command chair:: AOPS: Continue to scan for the missing officers, Maintain open communications with Commander Woo.

CTO_Peters says:
@::Nods:: XO: agree, still trying to remember every name

CNS-McIntyre says:
@CO:  Yes Ma'am... some good poker and lots of senior staff money!

Host CMO_Santiago says:
<Don>  ::Falls to his knees begging.:: CSO/TO:  Please don't hurt me!

FCO_Roznine says:
@::picks up the cards, and rather clumsily shuffles them:: All: What's the game? Five-card stud, deuces wild?

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@<ADM_Clark>All: Are we playing poker or are you people gonna yak all day?

Host XO_Knight says:
@FCO:  Dealers choice Dylan.

CNS-McIntyre says:
@FCO:  Wild cards?  You have to be kidding!

FCO_Roznine says:
@::grins:: All: Deuces wild it is. ::quickly deals the cards:: Place your ante.

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@::grins at Randi::

CSO_Woo says:
@::calms down slightly as he sees this... teenager in front of him:: Don: Calm down. Calm down. It's all right.

CNS-McIntyre says:
@::leans over to the XO::  XO:  Sir, I don't have any money with me, can you loan me some?

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
Don: It's our duty to protect you...as long as you tell us where...  ::Shuts up when he realizes the CSO should do the talking.::

CSO_Woo says:
@TO: Maybe we should back off... I hate this kid.

CEO_Hansen says:
@::watches them play, still trying to figure out why the CO and the XO pulled a disappearing act::

OPS_Barnes says:
<AOPS> OPS: Aye sir.... wait... I'm reading their signatures coming from the security office!

OPS_Barnes says:
AOPS: What? Are you sure?

FCO_Roznine says:
@CO: I wasn't expecting to play... since you have a pile, care to spot me a few bars?

Host XO_Knight says:
@CNS:  Sure, here you go.  ::hands over some latinum::  I know you're good for it.  ::smiles::

OPS_Barnes says:
<AOPS> OPS: Aye sir, fairly sure.

Host CMO_Santiago says:
<Don> CSO:  You hate me!!!  I only did what they said!   That lady and Guy they said they wanted to test someone and asked my daddy if I could play along!!

FCO_Roznine says:
@::looks at his cards::

OPS_Barnes says:
AOPS: Double-check. I want specific coordinates.

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@CSO: Sorry sir, just got a bit excited.  First crisis on the job and all.

CNS-McIntyre says:
@XO:  Let's hope so, since we are playing "sissy" poker!  ::looks at her cards that have one deuce in them::

CSO_Woo says:
@Don: Test someone...? Oh... no... ::groans::

FCO_Roznine says:
@CNS: I heard that!

CTO_Peters says:
::Looks around the room at her new shipmates and smiles::

CSO_Woo says:

@<DON> CSO/TO:  I thought it was a fun thing like for my acting class!!!  I'm a Thespian...  ::Puffs out his chest.::

CNS-McIntyre says:
@FCO:  Ok, ante up Roz... ::fingering her chips::

Host XO_Knight says:
@~~~FCO:  Don't worry Dylan, I don't think your a sissy.~~~ ::grins::

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@CSO: Sir?  Is something wrong? ::Quickly follows the CSO.::

OPS_Barnes says:
COM: CSO: Huron to Commander Woo.

CSO_Woo says:
@TO: I don't believe this... *OPS* Woo here. Go head, ensign. ::tries to calm himself down as the turbolift makes its way to the office::

FCO_Roznine says:
~~~XO: Thanks, I don't either~~~ ::pinches a bar of latinum from Ethan's pile and places it in the middle::

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@All: Ok folks, listen up. Commander Knight will explain this all to you.

Host CMO_Santiago says:
@<Don> ::Faints as the CSO and TO rush out of the operations center.::

CSO_Woo says:
@::steps out of the turbolift and quickly heads in the direction of the security office:: *OPS*: Lieutenant? 

CNS-McIntyre says:
@::tosses a bar into the pile::

OPS_Barnes says:
*CSO*: Sir, we've pinpointed the missing officers. You'll find them in the Security Office.

CEO_Hansen says:
@::glances over at the CO, just listening::

CSO_Woo says:
@*OPS* Yeah... I gathered as much. I'm approaching the security office now, lieutenant. ::walks up to the doors and watches as it slides open... and steps in::

Host XO_Knight says:
@::chuckles::  All:  Sorry if we worried anyone.  This was all just a test to see how Commander Woo would react in a crisis.  It was the only thing we could think of.

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@::Unslings Rifle.::  CSO: Are you armed...Sir!  Hold back!  Let me go first!  ::Rushes ahead.::

CNS-McIntyre says:
@::giggles as she was in on it::

FCO_Roznine says:
~~~XO: Perhaps I should brush up on my poker skills... care to give me a few lessons?~~~ ::looks at him sideways::

OPS_Barnes says:
*CSO*: Everything all right, sir? Did you find them?

CTO_Peters says:
@::Nods and wonders what other types of test they will think up next::

FCO_Roznine says:
@XO: I see... CO: I hope you don't have something like this planned for me.

CSO_Woo says:
@TO: Don't worry, ensign. I know what I'm doing. ::storms into the security office and looks around...:: CO: Captain? XO: Commander! TO: They are somewhere in here...

Host XO_Knight says:
@~~~FCO:  Sure Dylan, anytime.  Just come to my quarters whenever you want.~~~

CNS-McIntyre says:
@CO: Or for me!  I would have killed SB OPS right off the bat! ::giggling::

Host CO_Capt_Sheridan says:
@::smiles at Roz::FCO: Roz, just remember to stay on your toes from now on ok?

Host XO_Knight says:
@CNS:  You did a great job Randi.  ::smiles::

FCO_Roznine says:
~~~XO: Oh, I will. Aurora can be my accomplice.~~~ CO: I always am.

CSO_Woo says:
@::walks into the brig::

CNS-McIntyre says:
@XO:  Thank you Sir... I hated to lie to Eric.

OPS_Barnes says:
*CSO*: Commander?

CEO_Hansen says:
@::rolls her eyes::

CSO_Woo says:
*OPS* Stand by, lieutenant.

Host XO_Knight says:
@CNS:  If it's any consolation, we hated to pull this stunt, but there was no other way.

FCO_Roznine says:
@::hears Eric's shouts from the outer office:: All: I think he found us.

CNS-McIntyre says:
@XO:  Sir, I think I hear him down the hall now...

CSO_Woo says:
@::activates his tricorder and scans for lifesigns as he examines the rooms along the brig::

OPS_Barnes says:
AOPS: Prepare for immediate beam out on my mark.

Host XO_Knight says:
@CSO:  It's about time you got here Eric!  Why don't you sit down a spell.

CSO_Woo says:
*OPS* Stand by, lieutenant!

CNS-McIntyre says:
@::turns as she waits for Eric to enter the room::

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@CSO: I hear voices in that room there.  ::Points.::

CSO_Woo says:
@XO: Commander...! ::looks around at present company:: I don't believe this... ::sits down::

OPS_Barnes says:
*CSO*: Standing by, sir. We're ready to pull you out in case of an emergency.

TO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@::Follows the CSO in.::  Self: Huh?  They're playing craps?  We're going nuts over a game of craps?

CSO_Woo says:
*OPS* It's all right, lieutenant. I've found them.

FCO_Roznine says:
@::leans over to Randi:: CNS: It would have been more effective if we were all arranged in a careful tableau for him to find. ::grins::

OPS_Barnes says:
