Mission Summary
	The away team go deeper into the complex in search of the missing science team, while on board the crew scramble to get repairs completed. The away team, however, are shocked to find that Dr. Riley has been murdered, seemingly right before his probable capture, to prevent him from talking... and that person who killed him, may very well be one of the security guards impounded in the brig...

<<<<<RESUME Mission>>>>>

Host XO_Woo says:
::on the bridge, reading his side panel as damage reports come in from all over the vessel::

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@::In Weather control station, awaiting Transport.::

TO_Dem`Rual says:
@::Wonder what is going on.::

Host CO_Knight says:
::on the bridge reviewing the information for CNS McIntyre::

Host CO_Knight says:
*CMO*:  Doctor, please report to the bridge.

EO_Ens_Sparks says:
::looks over things at engineering hoping the repairs won't take too long::

CMO_Harek says:
*CO* Alright Sir, On my way

Host CO_Knight says:
XO:  How much damage did the Huron take?

FCO_Ens_T`Lar_Bishara says:
::sitting at her flight station praying she doesn't scratch the paint on their way out::

CMO_Harek says:
Med: You guys stay here

Host Jamie_O says:
@ACTION: the away team begins to dematerialize. they rematerialize in the mountain lair

CMO_Harek says:
::walks out of the cargobay and heads into the tl:: TL: Deck 1

TO_Dem`Rual says:
@::Scans for life-signs.::

OPS_Barnes says:
@::looks around, holding phaser and tricorder at the ready:: AT: Let's find those missing people.

Host XO_Woo says:
CO: Reports are still coming in, sir, but from the looks of it, the damage is moderate. Electrical surges reported all over, some damage reported on decks 15-17, nothing serious.

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@::Listens intently, scanning room with rifle.::  TO: Anything moving in here?

Host CO_Knight says:
XO:  That's good to hear.  I'm going to send our resident CMO down to the planet to see if he can determine what the diagnosis of the science team is.

TO_Dem`Rual says:
@CTO:Not in this room. But there is some activity two rooms down.

EO_Ens_Sparks says:
::issues orders to the repair teams and checks their ongoing reports::

CMO_Harek says:
::steps onto the bridge:: CO: Reporting as ordered, Sir.

Host Jamie_O says:
@ACTION: the Away Team sees an immaculately kept Command Center, and a map. a giant red arrow points to "YOU ARE HERE"

Host XO_Woo says:
CO: Good idea, sir.

Host XO_Woo says:
EO: How are repairs coming along, Holly?

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@OPS: Nice control center.  I wonder if that map's somebody's idea of a joke?

Host CO_Knight says:
CMO:  Ah, Doctor, thank you.  I want you to coordinate with the other ships in the area and lead an away team of medical personnel to see if you can diagnose the science teams' personnel and see how we can get them transported back up here.

OPS_Barnes says:
@CTO: Well you know those Romulans.... getting lost in their own base is probably a regular occurrence ::laughs:: AT: Can we use this to find the detention area?

EO_Ens_Sparks says:
::looks over at the XO::XO: Proceeding well sir. Deck 15 is almost complete and 16 and 17 are already completed.

CMO_Harek says:
CO: Will I be accompanied by medical personal from the other ships

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@OPS: Perhaps, if it's real.  Humor isn't a normal part of the decor in Romulan paramilitary installations.  I wonder if it's a ruse?  Only one way to find out, shall we move to the Medical Facilities?

TO_Dem`Rual says:
@::Goes over to the map and pulls it down, looking at it for more detail.::

Host CO_Knight says:
CMO:  That's up to you.  We have them at our disposal, so if you need some of the other brightest minds...by all means bring them along.

OPS_Barnes says:
@CTO: Sounds prudent. Lead on.

CMO_Harek says:
CO: Aye, Sir. I'll prepare immediately

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@TO: Take the drag with Bee, I've got point with Scoo.  Keep sharp, just because we think it's clear doesn't mean it's safe.

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@10010/ 01001: Stay here and try and access their systems from here.  Might as well start breaking down what we found.

CMO_Harek says:
CO: Sir, could you contact the other ships and have them prepare one senior medical officer to beam down

EO_Ens_Sparks says:
::gets the report on the power conduit relay repairs near the shuttle bay and smiles at the efficiency of the engineering department::

Host CO_Knight says:
XO:  Eric, inform the AT that I'm giving them another hour to collect whatever data they need to collect.  I want as few personnel down there as possible.

TO_Dem`Rual says:
@CTO: Aye sir. ::Folds the map up and puts it away, then takes out his phaser.::

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@::Moves forward in tandem with Scoo.::  Scoo: Keep your nostrils open, I'll do the same with my ears.

Host CO_Knight says:
CMO:  Doctor, you're in charge so it's up to you to request whoever you want.  If you feel up to the task by yourself, then by all means see what you can do.

Host XO_Woo says:
CO: Aye, sir.

Host XO_Woo says:
::walks over to the OPS console:: AOPS: Please open a channel to the base, ensign.

Host XO_Woo says:
<AOPS> XO: Aye, sir. Channel open.

TO_Dem`Rual says:
@::trips on a loose stone, but catches himself.::

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@::Pauses at door.  Holds up three fingers, then drops them one at a time.  When third drops, rapidly turns corner with Scoo.::

Host XO_Woo says:
*CTO* Lieutenant, the captain is giving you just one more hour to collect your data. After that, we want you back on the Huron.

OPS_Barnes says:
@::following the team, tricorder in hand::

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@*XO*: Aye Sir, so far the facility looks clear.  The Bynars are looking into their command systems now, we're looking for the Science Teams.

Host XO_Woo says:
*CTO* Good luck.

CMO_Harek says:
CO: Alright, Sir, I'll go down to sickbay gather what I need and then I'll beam down

Host CO_Knight says:
*CTO*:  Ec'Thel'lon, I'm send the Doctor down to see if he can diagnose exactly what the science team's situation is.  He should be down shortly.

EO_Ens_Sparks says:
::plays with the panel, her fingers making fine adjustments to the settings::

CMO_Harek says:
::turns around and enters turbolift:: TL:  Sickbay

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@*CO*: Yes sir, excellent sir.  OPS: Room appears clear, and I think we found our mission objective.

Host CO_Knight says:
EO:  Holly, how's the repairs coming?

Host Jamie_O says:
@ACTION: the away team moves in to find a dead Dr Riley sprawled out across the floor.

EO_Ens_Sparks says:
CO: Almost completed sir. Estimate another two hours to finish up.

TO_Dem`Rual says:
@::Looks around the room:: Self: Interesting.

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@TO: Scan the Science team, make sure they aren't trapped in some way.  I'll check this one.  ::Kneels down near Riley.::

CMO_Harek says:
::exits the turbolift and enters sickbay, grabbing a med kit, then walk over to a console::

Host CO_Knight says:
EO:  Excellent.  Nice work.  ::smiles::

OPS_Barnes says:
@CTO: Good. Now... ::notices the doctor, and moves over to scan him:: All: He's dead...

TO_Dem`Rual says:
@::checks the science team.::

EO_Ens_Sparks says:
::gives the Captain a quick smile and looks down at her console again::

CMO_Harek says:
::composes a message to the fleet of ship, to prepare on medical officer and beam them down immediately::

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
OPS: Aye sir, shot to the head.  Close range.  ::Rises, scanning room again with Phaser rifle.::

OPS_Barnes says:
@CTO:  Hmm...

Host CO_Knight says:
*CMO*:  Ready to transport Doctor?

CMO_Harek says:
::transmits message and exits sickbay:: *CO* I'm heading for the transporter room right now

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@Scoo: How long?  ::Not lowering Phaser.::

Host CO_Knight says:
*CMO*:  Understood.  Let's make it quick.

CMO_Harek says:
::enters the turbolift:: TL: TR1

Host CO_Knight says:
*CTO*:  Any updates for me Ec'Thel'lon?

CMO_Harek says:
::exits the turbo, enters the transporter room and steps od the pad:: *Bridge* Ready for transport

TO_Dem`Rual says:
@CTO: The science team is comatose, they seem to be trapped.

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@<Scoo>  ::Scans Doctor.::  CTO: Romulan Disruptor, as you can see close range shot to the temple.  I'd say about 20 minutes.

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@*CO*: Aye sir, but not good.  We found Doctor Riley, dead from a Disruptor shot.  No sign yet of the killer, although we've just started to investigate.

EO_Ens_Sparks says:
::moves over to the secondary engineering station to check on a diagnostic that's been running for some time::

Host CO_Knight says:
::frowns::  *CTO*:  Dead?  Have the transporter chief get him back to the ship.  Our medical team will be better suited to examine Dr. Riley.

Host XO_Woo says:
CO: Dr. Riley? But he's the one behind all this... who would...

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@*CO*: Aye Sir, as soon as we've completed the initial scans we'll beam him up.  Scoo: Get this all holo imaged, and get him ready to  beam up for autopsy.

Host CO_Knight says:
XO:  Your guess is as good as mine Eric.  Let's take this one step at a time and get the rest of the Science team onboard the Huron.  Send out a communique to Admiral Skyler to let him know what we've discovered.

OPS_Barnes says:
@*CO*: Signs are he's been recently killed too... I'll get on that, sir. ::taps his badge again:: *TR Chief*: Away Team to Transporter Room 1. Lock on to the corpse by my feet and beam directly to sickbay. And while you're at it, send Dr. Harek down as well.

Host XO_Woo says:
CO: Immediately, sir. ::sits down at his seat and starts typing out a message on his sidepanel for the Admiral::

TO_Dem`Rual says:
@::Looks at the tools lying around::

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@<Scoo> CTO: Done, sir.  Unless you think there's anything special to look for

Host Jamie_O says:
@ACTION: The CMO appears beside the Away team

CMO_Harek says:
@::after materializing, takes out medical tricorder::

Host Jamie_O says:
@ACTION: the body of Dr Riley is beamed to the Morgue

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@CMO: Welcome to Shadowland, Doctor.

Host XO_Woo says:
CO: The communiqué has been sent, captain.

CMO_Harek says:
::sees a body beam away:: @CTO: Thanks, but who was that?

Host CO_Knight says:
::nods::  XO:  Thank you Eric.

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@<Scoo> CTO: Sir?  You might want to put down the rifle.  If whoever did this was still here, we'd have seen him already.

OPS_Barnes says:
@CMO: That, my dear doctor, was Dr. Riley

CMO_Harek says:
@OPS: Cause of death?

Host CO_Knight says:
*CMO*:  Doctor, can we safely transport the rest of the Science team aboard without hurting them further?

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@::Relaxes slightly, finally lowering the rifle.::  CMO: Yeah, that was the leader of this merry band of miscreants.  Looks like someone didn't want him to talk to us.

EO_Ens_Sparks says:
::makes a note on the time it took to finish the diagnostic::

OPS_Barnes says:
@CMO: Disruptor hit to the head. Recently too.

CMO_Harek says:
::begins scanning the comatose bodies::

CMO_Harek says:
@OPS: Recently, watch your back the killer could be lurking in the shadows

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@*CO*: Sir, if Riley was killed by someone in the base, since we lowered the shield, the killer may be trying to escape.  Can we scan the region for shuttlecraft or Transporter activity?

Host CO_Knight says:
*CTO*:  We'll see what we can find out from here.

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@CMO: He may be, but not in this room.  I'm thinking he was trying to cover his tracks as he got away.

CMO_Harek says:
@::looking over his findings of the science team::

Host CO_Knight says:
*CMO*:  Doctor?

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@*10010*: Any luck tapping into the control system?

TO_Dem`Rual says:
@::finds a bottle of something, and release the contents into his face, which cause him to start laughing after a couple of minutes.::

Host CO_Knight says:
XO:  Eric, see if we can scan the region for any recent activity.

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@TO: Ensign?  What happened?

TO_Dem`Rual says:
@::Lifts the bottle::

Host XO_Woo says:
CO: On it, sir. ::heads for the science console:: SO: Assist me. ::brings up a display of the surrounding area and starts scanning for transporter activity or shuttle activity::

CMO_Harek says:
*CO* I think as long as we beam them into stasis they should be fine. But I don't have enough stasis fields in sickbay  to handle then entire team, I think 3 to ship, totaling 4 ships would be a safe number

TO_Dem`Rual says:
CTO:hehehe...Somekind of gas...hahaha...

CMO_Harek says:
::starts see the rest of the medical contingent from the other ships beam in::

Host CO_Knight says:
*CMO*:  Understood.  We'll contact the other ships from here.  Just let them know when you are ready for transport.

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@TO: Be careful, this isn't a game, and we don't need any more work for the good Doctor.  He already has his hands full.

TO_Dem`Rual says:
@CTO: Aye...hahaha...sir.....hahahahaha

EO_Ens_Sparks says:
::heads back to the main engineering station and looks for the status report on the engines::

CMO_Harek says:
@*CO* Have the nebula, intrepid and 1 Akira prepare for the science team.

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@<10010> *CTO*: Almost in, it's fairly encrypted but we've almost punched through.

Host Jamie_O says:
ACTION: the Horizon and Superior flank in beside the Huron

Host CO_Knight says:
*CMO*:  They've been contacted.  They've instructed to transport when you are ready.

Host XO_Woo says:
CO: Still scanning sir. Also, the task force has arrived. ::smiles::

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@<10010> *CTO*: Got it, sir.  Setting up a link up to the Huron to copy the information.

CMO_Harek says:
::does a few more scans to check over his finding, wouldn't want any mistakes::

Host CO_Knight says:
::grins::  XO:  They've never left the area.  They've been out patrolling the perimeters.

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@*10010*: I need one thing now.  Check the Security clearances for the base.  Besides Doctor Riley, who had the highest Security clearance among the bases personnel?

Host XO_Woo says:
CO: Ah. ::smiles:: I am unable to find any activity yet... but something very strange. It seems that Dr. Riley's supposed time of death, coincides exactly with the time of extraction of the base team.

CMO_Harek says:
@Med: Once we beam them up, return to your ship and keep the team members in stasis until we find a safe way to revive them

Host XO_Woo says:
CO: Perhaps the one who killed him, is in our very brig.

CMO_Harek says:
<Meds> CMO: Yes, Sir

Host Jamie_O says:
<Computer>10010:Second in command or Argenta complex is Subcommander Raan

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@TO: This room appears clear, see if you can start uploading the facilities medical files to the Huron.

Host CO_Knight says:
XO:  That is a bit odd.  Have our Tactical department start interrogating those in the brig.

CMO_Harek says:
*CO* Okay, I'm ready down here, transport now.

TO_Dem`Rual says:
@CTO: hahaha...Yes, sir. ::goes over to a console in a corner, still uncontrollably laughing, and transfers files to the Huron::

Host CO_Knight says:
*CMO*:  Acknowledged.  *TR Chief*:  Transport now.

Host CO_Knight says:
<TR Chief> *CO*:  Transport complete sir.

Host Jamie_O says:
<TR Chief> *CO* Aye sir. ::energizes::

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@<10010> *CTO*: A Subcommander Raan was second in Command, sir.  Is your PADD active?  I'll forward his image for you.

Host XO_Woo says:
*Tactical* Please begin interrogation of the security guards in the brig... make sure you grill them on their last actions.

Host CO_Knight says:
XO:  Actually, Ec'Thel'lon might be the best person suited for the interrogation.  Perhaps we should hold off until he's back onboard.

OPS_Barnes says:
@TO: Are you okay, ensign?

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@*10010*: Yes, transfer it over.  ::Pulls PADD and looks at the image.::  *CO*: Sir, it's little more than a gut feeling, but I would guess a Subcommander Raan is the one who killed Riley.  He was second in Command, so had the most to loose if Riley spilled the beans.

Host XO_Woo says:
*Tactical* Standby. Wait until Lt. Ec'Thel'Ion returns for further instructions.

TO_Dem`Rual says:
@OPS: hehehe....I think...hahaha....I'll survive...haha..sir.

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
<ValJean> *XO*: Aye sir, we're still sorting and registering the prisoners, so it'll be a bit.

Host CO_Knight says:
*CTO*:  Does someone down there think that it's funny?  I'm hearing laughter down there.

Host XO_Woo says:
*ValJean* Understood. Woo out.

Host XO_Woo says:
::looks up as he hears that quizzical remark from the captain::

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@*CO*: No sir, Ensign Dem'Rual had an accident with a cannister of Nitrous Oxide.  He apparently breathed some of it in.

EO_Ens_Sparks says:
::looks up at the Captain and smiles at the remark too::

Host CO_Knight says:
*CTO*:  Perhaps he should be transported back to the Huron.

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@*CO*: Aye sir, I'll have him report to Sickbay to be checked out.

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@TO: We can handle the wrap up.  Head back to the ship and have Sickbay make sure you're alright.

Host CO_Knight says:
*CTO*:  Fine.  And once he's cleared, I'll have him begin the interrogations for you.

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@*CO*: Aye sir.

TO_Dem`Rual says:
@CTO: hehehe, Very well sir...hehehe...however I would like to work extra later on for my impudence...hehehe...

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@::Smiles.::  TO: We have 30 prisoners, I don't think lack of work will be a problem for any of us for a few days.

TO_Dem`Rual says:
@CTO:hehehe....Aye, sir...hahaha....hehehe...ha!

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@OPS: I'm headed back to the Command center, see what I can see in the records so I know what to ask in the interrogations.

OPS_Barnes says:
@CTO: Alright. I'll oversee things here.

Host Jamie_O says:
ACTION: the TO appears in Sickbay

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@::Turns and heads to the Command center to start reviewing facility records.::

TO_Dem`Rual says:
ALL: HAHAHAHAH....hehehehe.

Host CO_Knight says:
XO:  Anything coming up on scans?

Host XO_Woo says:
::shakes head:: CO: I'm afraid not. It seems more likely that this person failed to escape, had he tried... and is probably in our brig right now, given that there don't seem to be any other life signs in the base.

CTO_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@Bynars: OK, let's start sifting through records.  First thing I need is a list of names and dates.  Who's in charge of what, and when were they assigned.  Oh, and considering the mixed origin of the base, what faction they came from.  I'll start on the supply lists to try and see what they were doing.

Host CO_Knight says:
XO:  I certainly hope you are right.

Host CO_Knight says:
EO:  You're a little too quiet back there Holly.

TO_Dem`Rual says:
::hits the floor of the sickbay, holding on to his ribs.::

EO_Ens_Sparks says:
CO: Sorry sir, just staying out of the way. ::smiles::
