EO_Lt_Sparks has returned.

FM-Trish is now known as CNS-McIntyre.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
A Whole New World, Part 6 - Air Date: 10405.15

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
The Huron prepares for a possible quarantine situation when it is suggested that several corpses found on the planet may have killed each other, after having become infected by some sort of unknown and undetected pathogen... the Huron has sent down equipment to the planet for further analysis.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
On the planet, the away teams work to unravel the mystery of the corpses... as they struggle with a heightened level of stress and irritability...

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
On the ship, the crew awaits a response from Vulcan pertaining to any unannounced survey teams that were sent to Brialus recently.

Host SM_Jim says:
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<RESUME MISSION>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

CNS-McIntyre says:
::wondering if the CO has lost his mind, and wants to leave to get her Decon suit::

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::On Bridge, trying to locate any signs of what happened to the bodies we've discovered.::

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@::examines the new opening::XO: Sir, I think you should be able to fit through now. ::grins and winks at Dem::

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@EO/TO: Anyhting significant back there?

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
*XO*: Commander, is there any evidence of some sort of transmission of a pathogen? There is some concern up here...

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@XO: Not to me.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
CNS: Randi, you mentioned something about something similar that happened before... do a little research, find out what happened then.

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CNS: If you need someone to look up the records you were refering to, use Angeltra.

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@XO: Just about to take a look sir.

FCO_LtCmdr_Roznine says:
::checks his console and turns his attention back to the discussion::

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@TO: Care to take a closer look?

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::taps combadge:: *CO* None that can be detected....  Lt. Sky is conducting further tests now.

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@EO: Sure.

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CO: I'm going to run a deep scan on the planet, see if there's any technology not obvious to our initial scans.  Maybe this wasn't a research team, maybe they were hiding something.

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO:  Sir, the virus was transmitted by touch, causing the same situation as on the planet.  I believe Dr. McCoy came up with a vacine of some sort.  But as long as these bodies appear to have been down there, it could become airborne.l

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@:;steps back so that Dem can pass::

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::walks close to the entrance::

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@::Looks out the entrance:: EO: Nice view. ::in a irritated voice::

CNS-McIntyre says:
<delete I>

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
CNS: Until Ms Sky completes her analysis, we won't know if this vaccine can be modified... but find out more about this vaccine.

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@TO: So what's out there?

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Initiates intense scan of the planet, looking for any artificial metal masses.::

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO:  Yes Sir, I have the computer working on it now.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
CTO: Good idea, lieutenant. Yes... very suspicious that these Vulcans just appear here...

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@::Turns head:: EO: Rock and lots of it.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::a tad bit irritable::  TO: Hurry up!  I'm ready to get out of this God forsaken place

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
*XO*: Commander, obviously I need not remind you of proper procedures to avoid infection... avoid contact, fluids, live vector transmission, etc...

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CO: It may be nothing, but to assume that the cause of demise was some kind of bio infection may be the most obvious choice, but may not be the only one.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@*CO* Yeah Yeah...  I'm not stupid ya know....

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
*XO*: I beg your pardon, commander?

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@XO: Hey! Don't yell!  :: Moves out of the way:: Here you go your majesty. :: In a rude manner::

FCO_LtCmdr_Roznine says:
::has the computer search for any recent ion and warp trails, other than the Huron's::

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Tries to hide surprise at XO's response.::

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@::looks back as the XO comments::Self: Boy is he grouchy.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@*CO* I said,, Understood sir....

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::rolls eyes and turns around::  EO/TO: THere is obviously nothing back here....  Let's move out.

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@XO: No duh Sherlock.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
::turns to the CNS:: CNS: That was unexpected. What's going on down there?

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Monitors report from Transporter Room.::  CNS: Anything else you want sent down for Lieutenant Sky?  The shuttle's ready to beam otherwise..

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@TO: Ok Dem, let's move out and keep the Commander happy.

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO:  Sir, I don't like the sound of the XO's voice.  They may be infected.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::stands for a sec::  TO: What was that mister?

CNS-McIntyre says:
::closes her eyes and focuses on the AT::

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@EO: Sure no prob.

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@XO: I said "No duf Sherlock."

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
<duh>

FCO_LtCmdr_Roznine says:
CO: Sir, I did a scan of any warp or ion trails, but other than us... nothing.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
CNS: If that's true... then why have they been unable to detect it? ... *XO*: Commander, do me a favor and run a complete scan of... Lt. Sparks, and send the results back up to the Huron immediately.

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO:  Sir, the XO and TO seem to be extremely irritated.

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@::walks back towards the Commander::XO: Shall we sir? ::points to the opening of the cave::

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO:  Holly doesn't seem to be affected... yet.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::turns around::  EO: Hold on there Lt...  ::scans Sparks::

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
CNS: I am inclined to transport them all back to the Huron and place them under quarantine... how about Lt. Sky? She needs to stay down there to figure this out...

CNS-McIntyre says:
::watches as the scan comes to her console::

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@:;stands still::XO: I'm perfectly fine sir. ::smiles::

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@EO: Just following orders....

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO:  Have Holly scan the XO and TO now please.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
CTO: Maybe after Cmdr. Irvin sends up Lt. Sparks' scan, we can compare it to a previous scan of her, to identify any foreign presence...

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::transmits scan::  *CO* Transmitting scan Captian

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CO: I suppose so, sir.  Biology isn't my strong point.

Host SM_Jim says:
ACTION:  Scans of the XO and TO will show nothing unusual.

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@::Sits on a nearby rock:: All: This is dreadfully boring.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
*XO*: Thank you. And, have Holly scan you and Dem'Rual as well.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::looks to the EO::

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@EO: Give us the once over Ms. Sparks

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@XO: Of course sir, as you wish. ::scans Dem and Eli::

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO:  Nothing unusual on Holly.  Waiting for the other scans to compare them.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
CNS: If this infection causes some sort of behaviour-alteration... should Ms Sky, being a Vulcan, be more resistant to this?

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@EO: And transmit that to the ship.....

CNS-McIntyre says:
::watches the scan come to her console and taps it to compare the three scans::

FCO_LtCmdr_Roznine says:
::tries to puzzle through what's going on, but can't quite get the idea::

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::gets huffy with the amount of time this is all taking::

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CO: Sir, as much as I'd like to have the crew aboard, bringing them here may prove too dangerous.  If we can't find signs of what infected them, how can we know if we're containing it?

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@XO: You both seem perfectly normal Commander. Aye sir, sending it to the ship. ::taps her padd::

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO:  I agree with the CTO sir... better to be safe than sorry.

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@ALL: If you don't mind, I'm going for a breather. ::Walks out off the cave and leans against the wall::

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
CTO: And yet, we cannot keep them down on the planet indefinitely...

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO:  Sir, nothing abnormal in the scans.  But, as I stated, the XO and TO are very irritated.  Perhaps something has happened to them, that did NOT happen to Holly?

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@*CO* All appears normal Captain...  Can we continue now?  

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
CNS: Were there any women amongst the four deceased?

FCO_LtCmdr_Roznine says:
All: We're assuming its something that can be detected by our tricorders... what if it isn't?

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
*XO*: Stand by, commander.

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CNS/ CO: Perhaps sir, but they've only been down what, an hour and a half or two hours?

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@Self: <Mutters some explicatives>

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO:  No Sir, all the bodies were male.

CNS-McIntyre says:
<expletives>

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
<And some of them to>

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@XO: Commander, perhaps you might like to be out in the sunshine. We can wait there for any test results.

CNS-McIntyre says:
*EO*:  Holly, this is Randi.  Has anything different occurred to the XO or TO that has not happened to you?

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
CNS: That's very interesting... and you say there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with Lt. Sparks and Lt. Sky...

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@EO: Agreed ::heads out of the cave into the sunshine::

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO:  No Sir... I am waiting for Holly to reply to my question.

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Initiates scan of the planet and the star, looking for unusual radiation coming from either.::

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@::Turns around:: XO: Oh...It's you. ::turns back::

CNS-McIntyre says:
CTO:  Is there any life, such as animals. insects, etc on the planet?

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@:;hears Randi and taps her badge::*CNS*: Randi? Anything different? I don't think so. Got a theory?

FCO_LtCmdr_Roznine says:
CTO: Ec'Thel'Ion, I just had a thought. Did you discover any bodies outside the caves?

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@TO: Well who did you think it was 'Sherlock'?

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@:;follows the Commander from the cave::

CNS-McIntyre says:
*EO*:  I am trying to pin down if anything from the planet might be a contagion Holly... the XO and TO appear to be a tad irritable.

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@XO: Somebody besides you...

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CNS: Aye, plenty of life forms.  FCO: Outside of the 4 bodies initially found, there's 10 others, but scans haven't pinned down location.  Hold a sec.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
*EO*: I suggest you keep a close eye on the two, lieutenant - and at the first sign of trouble, inform us.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@TO: Oh Are you being a smart alec now?

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@::smiles to herself::*CNS*: I see. They are a bit on the grouchy side, but I think that's just their normal demeaner.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
FCO: Any response from Vulcan yet?

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@XO: Sorry my name isn't alec.

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO:  If the thought is that the contagion is naturally occuring on the planet, then we must be suspicious of everything down there...

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
FCO: No sir, the bodies were in mixed locations.  Some in caverns, some on the surface.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::increasingly hacked off::  TO: THat;s it!  Hit the deck and gimme 50

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@XO: NO!

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::walks up and gets in the TO's face::  TO: WHAT do you mean NO?

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@::hears the TO and XO talking is raised voices::XO/TO: Gentlemen, is there a problem I can help with?

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@XO: No means no, SIR!

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@EO: There is nothing wrong at all.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::looks to the EO and pauses for a second, the turns and continues forward, tricorder open::  TO: I'll deal with you later Lt.  

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO:  Sir, I am sensing their tempers are rising.  I don't like this Sir, we need to warn Holly.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
*XO/TO*: Commander, lieutenant... calm yourselves, NOW... please.

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@XO: Hardly, there is nothing to deal with in the first place.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@*CO* Aye....  ::long pause::  'sir'

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@*CO*: Whatever.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
CTO: You say you have a team waiting in the transporter room? Isolate the men from the women and send your female officers down to separate them.

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CO: Finding some signs of minor construction on the planet, a few temporary shelters and so forth.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
TO: You're on thin ice Lt. Wyte...  I sugest you stow it.

CNS-McIntyre says:
*EO*:  Holly, be careful, I do not like the thoughts I am picking up from the XO and TO.  Stay back and watch them.

FCO_LtCmdr_Roznine says:
CO: Double checking that time delay, sir.

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@::moves a few feet closer::XO: Commander, may I suggest you have something cool to drink and try ans relax a little.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
*TO/XO*: Good. Now... if you have a problem with each other... take a breather. This is very important...

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@::Looks around:: XO: Funny I don't see any ice.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
CTO: I thought this planet was previously uninhabited.

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CO: Aye Sir, but just because so far the sample indicates it, that doesn't mean it's sexually discriminate.  Let's hope it is something in the air.

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@::covers her badge and replies to Randi;:*CNS*: Oh I'm watching them Randi, don't worry.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::walks up to the TO:: ALL: THAT'S IT!!!  ::clocks the TO with a right to the face::

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO:  Sir, I can blast them mentally, it might make them pause for a moment.

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
*Wilma*: Take charge of Team 3, in Isolation suits, female team only.  Male team members stay on standby on the ship, females prepare to beam down.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
CNS: Now... in the meantime. Our tricorders can't detect anything wrong with them... no signs of the pathogen... Holy hell, what just happened! ::turns to the side, as he hears a loud thud::

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO:  Ut oh Sir... the XO just hit the TO...

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CO: So did I, they are barely buildings, though.

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@::staggers back:: XO: WHY YOU LITTLE... ::tackles the XO::

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@::rushes forward and steps in between the XO and TO:: XO: Sir! Stop this immediately!

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
*XO/TO*: Gentlemen, you will stop this now! ::turns to the CNS and nods to her:: CNS: Go ahead.

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
<Wilma> *CTO*: Aye, beaming now.  ::Nods to Transporter Chief.::

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
*EO*: Lieutenant, have you any sedative with you?

FCO_LtCmdr_Roznine says:
::can't decide whether to be amused or horrified at what they are hearing::

CNS-McIntyre says:
~~~XO/TO:  Stop this at once, or I will blast you into unconsciousness.~~~

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::lands on the ground with the TO on top of him::  TO: Get off of me damn you!

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@::turns to Dem::TO: Back off now, and that's an order!

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
*EO*: Additional Security on the way now, you want me to beam them to seperate locations?

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@::hears the Captain::*CO*: I may have some in the med kit sir, if I can get to it.

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@XO: Next time I'll destroy you!  EO: Yes, ma'am. :: Walks off away from the cave::

CNS-McIntyre says:
::increases the strength of her mental thoughts to the XO and TO::

Host SM_Jim says:
ACTION:  The XO and TO grab their heads in pain.

FCO_LtCmdr_Roznine says:
::mutters under his breath to himself:: Self: Glad am I now I didn't go down there.

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
*CTO*: Just send them here Lieutenant and make it fast.

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Initiates link to Shuttle Transporter to keep the two isolated from ship systems, if needed.::

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
*EO*: Well, keep them sedated - they're of no use to you right now.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::gets up, then drops to knees in pain::  All: oooofff.......

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@*CO*: I'll try sir.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
::grabs ead::

FCO_LtCmdr_Roznine says:
::nearly levitates to the bridge ceiling as his console bleeps at him::

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
<Edit - @::grabs head::

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@::still standing but his head is twitching::

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@<Wilma>  ::Materializes on the planet, in isolation suits.::  All: What's going on here?!

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
::hears the beeping as well:: FCO: Commander?

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@:;reaches for the med kit and locates the sedative::XO: Commander, look over there. ::points to a group of trees::

CNS-McIntyre says:
*EO*:  Holly, do you need me to beam down a heavy sedative?

Host SM_Jim says:
ACTION:  The CNS' mental thoughts bring the XO and TO to their normal selves for the time being.

FCO_LtCmdr_Roznine says:
CO: Reply from Vulcan, sir. There is no record of any Vulcans ever coming to this planet or system.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::stands back up, the pain having passed::  

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@::injects the XO quickly:: XO: My mistake sir. ::smiles::

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@::Sighs and looks around:: ALL: What's going on.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
*XO*: I'm sorry for that, commander, but it was necessary. We have reason to believe that you and Lt. Wyte have become infected... so understand that you *must* have restraint.

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
<?>

FCO_LtCmdr_Roznine says:
::Glances at Randi:: CNS: We can always hogtie them...

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::calming down::  *CO* Aye sir....   ::sigh::

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
FCO: Thank you, commander... ::sighs:: CNS: What if they weren't Vulcans? But rather Romulans? Are they different enough so that we could tell?

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@::turns to Dem::TO:Easy does it Lieutenant. ::presses the hypo in::There, all better.

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO:  Captain, they seem to have returned to normal for the moment, perhaps my blast helped.

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
Computer: Who performed the intial survey of this planet, the one that said uninhabited?

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
CNS: Interesting... the effects of this pathogen is reactive to telepathy... have you ever heard of such a thing?

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@EO: What was that for? ::rubs neck::

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@*CNS*: Randi, hold on the sedative for now. I think we have them calm enough.....for the moment.

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO: No Sir, I have never heard of anything like that...

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@TO: Just something to help you  relax Dem. Sit down and let it take effect.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@*CNS* Too late...  I think it's a good precaution at the moment...   

FCO_LtCmdr_Roznine says:
CO: Neither have I.

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CO: Romulans have worked for hundreds of years to bioengineer themselves into something different, but they're far from completely successful...from what I've seen of them.

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@::Nods:: EO: Very well. ::Goes sit down::

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@*CO* We're going to expidite this a littleso we can get up back up there.  The longer we wait, the worse off wee'll be.  Recomend that we get astatsus on the other two teams and beam them up imedeately.

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO:  Sir, Vulcans and Romulans have a similar DNA, but there is a definite difference between the two races, and our friends down there are definitely Vulcan.

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@::moves off a few feet::*CO*Captain, is there any way to beam the Lieutenant and the Commander back to the Huron? They could use observation in sickbay.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
CNS/CTO: According to sensors, is there any physiological change that occurred after the mental blast?

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO: Sir, I stress we can NOT bring any of the teams back up until we know what is happening.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
*EO*: Until you can solidly identify this pathogen, I do not want to risk bring them back for fear of contaminating the entire ship.

FCO_LtCmdr_Roznine says:
CO: Put them in a shuttle just off the stern, and rig it to flood it with anesthezine gas if they get out of hand again.

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@*CO*: Aye sir, I'll see what Sierra has to say about it.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
CNS: If this pathogen reacts to telepathy... can you sense anything strange, on that level, at all? I wonder if a prolonged telepathic blast...or even a simulated blast from the deflector would purge the away team completely...

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@::Walks towards the EO:: EO: There is a problem with us about a pathogen correct?

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@::walks back to the XO::XO: Commander, feeling any better?

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@EO: Yeah...  For the moment...   I'm just soo thursty.

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO:  Captain, I can do that, no problem on my end, but after prolonged blasting, I can injure them permanently.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
<Thirsty>

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@::nods::TO: Apparently, you and the Commander have come in contact with something down here.

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CO/ CNS: Maybe the pathogen is telepathic?

FCO_LtCmdr_Roznine says:
::perks up at the CTO's comment:: All: That concept has merit.

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@::reaches back into her pack for her water and hands it to the XO::XO: Here sir.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@All: But what....   ::snaps fingers before taking the canteen::  The insect bit!!!!

CNS-McIntyre says:
CTO:  That is a possibility, but the others are human and not that susceptible to telepathy.  Until Sky can find out which of them contacted whatever it is first.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
<bit>

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@::lowers his head for a moment:: EO: Maybe it would be wise to think back to the beginning of this mission to find the cause.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
::turns to look at the FCO:: FCO: If that's the case... you do not seem to be experiencing any problems...?

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
<bite>

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
FCO: My word would have been terror more then merit.

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
TO/XO: Were you both biten?

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
<@>

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::points to the back of the neck where he was bitten::

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO:  I did not direct my thoughts to Roz... telepathy is specific, not general.

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CNS: Not susceptible to Betazoid telepathy.  But aren't there major differences between say Betazoid and Ulian telepathy?

FCO_LtCmdr_Roznine says:
CO: Because I have not been exposed to the conditions on the planet, sir... and I'm not volunteering.

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@::Sees the cateen:: EO: Yes, but we both drink the river water as well.

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@::examines the Commander's neck::XO: It is red and swollen sir.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::sips the canteen::

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
::hears muffled chatter on the planet:: *EO/XO*: What's going on?

CNS-McIntyre says:
CTO:  Telepathy originates in the alpha brain wave patterns.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@TO: That's true.....

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CNS: But aren't Ulians, for example, unreadable by Betazoids?  Or am I remembering that wrong?

CNS-McIntyre says:
CTO:  Most humans cannot maintain alpha brain waves except in the dozing state.

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@*CO*: Captain, we may have found a link to the strange behaviour. It seems that both the Commander and the Lieutenant drank from the stream and both were biten by a local insect.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::takes a deep breath::  EO: Ms. Sparks...   I'm about to give you a direct order....   If I show signs of agitation again, you are imedeatly to relieve me of command of this landing party.  Understood?

CNS-McIntyre says:
CTO:  Yes, there are some races that cannot be read.

FCO_LtCmdr_Roznine says:
CTO: That would be species with four brain lobes, not just two.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
*EO*: See if you can isolate this insect, and collect a sample of the water::

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@::smiles::XO: Understood sir, but I'm sure you will be just fine in no time and that won't be necessary.

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@Self: About time he said that.

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
FCO/ CNS: I'm not talking necessarily the same thing, but if we have 2 examples of telepathy, who says there isn't one that can interact with human thought patterns?

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@*CO*: Yes sir, right away.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@EO: I appreciate your confidence Ms Sparks

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@XO/TO: Now you two relax while I head back to the stream to collect a sample.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
CTO/CNS/FCO: Have you a theory?

CNS-McIntyre says:
CTO:  That question may be moot.  I sense from the XO that the contagion might be from an insect bite.

Host SM_Jim says:
ACTION:  The XO and TO start to show slight signs of irritability once again.

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@EO: I'll try..

FCO_LtCmdr_Roznine says:
CTO: I couldn't say... I'm not a full Betazoid and can only speak mentally to full telepaths.

CNS-McIntyre says:
::grins at Roz::

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
CNS: If it is found that the pathogen came from an insect, then I would be comfortable with beaming them up under quarantine.

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Almost laughs.::  FCO: Like I'm an expert?

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::smirks::  TO: You better do better than just 'try'

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@XO: I appreciate your confidence. ::In a mocking voice::

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@::hurries to the stream and collects a small sample of the water::Self: Looks fine...:;turns and heads back::

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
::listens to the commlink and looks to the CNS::

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO:  It seems to be happening again Sir... shall I blast them again?

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@<Wilma>  ::Steps between XO and TO, back to back with Wilma.::

FCO_LtCmdr_Roznine says:
::smiles at Ec'Thel'Ion::

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@XO: Oh, I'll do more than try. ::glares at the XO::

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
CNS: You said it would damage them permanently?

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
*XO/TO*: Remember what I said about restraint?

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@::sets down her sample kit::XO/TO: Gentlemen, do either of you happen to remember what the insect looked like that bite you?

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO:  Only after repeated strong blasts, yes Sir... they are in no danger right now.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
CNS: Then we shall wait a little while longer.

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@<Wilma> TO: Relax, Sir.  Don't give us extra work.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::takes a deep breath and ignores the TO:: EO: No...  I swatted it too quickly.

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@EO: It...looked...kind like a mosquito.

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@Wilma: Very well.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
*EO*: Run a scan at the specific point of infection, see if you see anything.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
CNS: This... this pathogen boggles the mind. A pathogen which we cannot identify, yet we know exists...

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@Wilma: Can you take a couple of men and check the area for any insects and try and collect a live sample please?

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO: There is strong possibility that it is affecting only one part of the brain Sir.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
CNS: Explain.

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@*CO*: I'll try sir, but this equipment is not as accurate as that on the ship.

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO:  From what we can see, this may have gone by way of the nerves and not the blood stream.

CNS-McIntyre says:
*EO*:  Holly, check their brain waves and neural pathways.  Also check the spinal nerves.

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@<Wilma> EO: Aye, Lieutenant.  I'll get the other 2 on it.  I think 2 of us are where we have to be.  ::Nods to the other 2 to start looking for insects.::

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
CNS: And yet we cannot detect this pathogen... suppose it isn't carbon based... or suppose it doesn't exist in normal space. Can you adjust your scans to account for those possibilities?

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@XO: Commander, I need to examine that bite again please.

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CO: You mean a Phased pathogen?  Frightening.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::kneels down::  EO: Go for it...  

FCO_LtCmdr_Roznine says:
::glances at Ec'Thel'Ion again:: CTO: Dunno about you, but the scientific talk lost me again.

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO:  I am hampered being up here.  I really need to be below.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
::stares at the CNS:: CNS: .. Decon suit. Go ahead.

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO:  Have Holly take them to the shuttle.  We have good equipment in it.

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
FCO: I can keep up with the basic theories, especially in the physical sciences.  It's the intense biology that looses me.

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
*CNS: Randi, I already know that this thing, is affecting their brains. They are as edgy as a long tailed cat in room full of rocking chairs.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
*EO*: Holly, take full advantage of the equipment in the shuttle, which we have beamed down outside the cave.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::looks striaght ahead:: EO: Make it fast Holly.....

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
FCO: All I know about biology is where common species keep their vital organs.

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@*CO*: I will sir.

CNS-McIntyre says:
CO:  Aye Sir... ::stands up and leaves the bridge going to sickbay to get her Decon suit::

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
*EO/XO*: Have you folks ever heard of a pathogen that exists outside of normal space?

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@::Seeing his chance, he runs up and kicks the XO in the side::

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@XO: Just hold still Commander. ::runs the tricorder over the bite site slowly::

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
FCO: I can send you some textbooks if you like.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::falls over and lands face first in the dirt::

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@XO: Take that punk!

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@<Wilma>  ::Grabs TO and tackles him as Betty stands back, Phaser raised on Stun.::

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@::grabs the TO and holds him::Security: Someone give me  hand here.

FCO_LtCmdr_Roznine says:
::nods:: CTO: I'm with you there. ::grins at the Captain:: CO: Only if you take time out to explain half the terminology to me.

Host SM_Jim says:
ACTION:  The EO's scans come up inconclusive.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::gets up and dusts self off::  TO: Okie DipWit!  Wanna try that when I'm looking you coward?

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@XO: Commander!

CNS-McIntyre says:
::runs to sickbay and begins to dress in the suit::

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@EO: No!  Let the little nimrod go!  I'm beat him until the compuet doesn't recognize him.....  

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@XO: At last I'm not the one covered in dirt. ::starts laughing::

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@<Betty> XO: No he doesn't, and neither do you, sir.  I haven't had an opportunity to shoot a Command Officer, and hope to avoid that if I can.

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@*CO*: Sir, my scans are inconclusive and things are escalating here again.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
*EO*: Damn it... *CNS*: Randi, once again.

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CO: Permission to beam them to seperate locations?

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@XO: eewwwwwww, I'm so scared. ::Mocking the XO again::

CNS-McIntyre says:
*CO*: Yes Sir, I heard them.  Can you beam from sickbay down to the planet Sir?

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
*EO*: Configure your tricorder to scan for subspace perturbations...

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@XO: Commander, you are relieved of duty. Now go and wait in the shuttle with the security team.

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@TO: Dem, you too.

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@XO: Yeah, run you little chicken.

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
*EO*: I'd suggest seperating them for now, if possible.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
::turns to the CTO for him to beam the CNS down to the planet:: CTO: But if you beam to separate locations, they'll just redirect... hey, wait... why are they only targeting each other?

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
::looks to Betty, then hearing the EO, begins to head to the shuttle....  then swings around and draws his phaser, set to kill::

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
<Add a @> 

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@*CO: Sir, for what?

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@EO: I think not!

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@<Betty> ::Leaps for Phaser.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@TO: Bring it!  ::motions to the TO with his finger::

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Gives order to Transporter Chief to initiate Transport.::

Host SM_Jim says:
ACTION:  The CNS is transported down to the planet.

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@*CTO*: Too late..::breaks off the link.....

FCO_LtCmdr_Roznine says:
::listens to what's happening on the surface with horrified fascination::

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CO: I don't know, but 2 people not in full control would be more likely to annoy each other.

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@::Pulls out his phaser:: XO: Trust me pal...I've studied so many John Wayne movies, you're head will spin.

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
*XO/TO*: If you two do not stand down, so help me God, those security officers will fire.

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@::turns and rushes over to where the XO is standing::XO: Commander, you are out of control, now stand down.

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Uses link to Shuttle Transporter to lock onto XO and beam him into the shuttle, ordering it to remove the Phaser in route.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@*CO* Shut up Eric!  THis doesn't concern you!

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
*CNS*: Commander, status?

CNS-McIntyre says:
@::sees the TO grab his phaser, pointing at the XO... running up behind him, she tackles him to the ground. then injecting him with a heavy sedative::

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@TO: Lieutenant, you will stand down as well........now!

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@::Aims his phaser at the XO's big head:

FCO_LtCmdr_Roznine says:
::blinks at the XO's words and glances at the Captain::

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::dematerializes and rematerializes in the shuttle::

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@ALL: Get off me you hag!

CTO_Lt_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CO: I'm trying to beam Commander Irvin to the shuttle, and removing his Phaser.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@::looks around:: OUtLoud: NOOOOOOOOOO!

CNS-McIntyre says:
@TO:  One more moment TO and you won't care who is on you...

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
::sighs, as he stops himself from losing his temper... 1... 2... 3... he looks over at the FCO:: FCO: It's alright. *XO*: Eli... I understand things are confusing right now...

Host SM_Jim says:
ACTION:  The TO becomes heavily sedated.

EO_Lt_Sparks says:
@::sighs and looks at Randi::CNS: Thanks for the assistance Randi.

TO_LtJg_Dem`Rual says:
@::head hits the ground:: ALL: zzz zzz

Host SM_Jim says:
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<PAUSE MISSION>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

CNS-McIntyre says:
@EO: Anytime Holly... He will be out for quite a while.

Host XO_Cmdr_Irvin says:
@*CO* Confusing won't be the word wen I get back up ther eand pound your face into the deck plating

Host CO_Capt_Woo says:
::sits down in his seat, nursing his headache::

Host SM_Jim says:
Okay folks....Pile out!
