Mission Prologue:  

Last week on the USS Huron …

The Huron was confronted with a mysterious vessel that had dropped out of warp.  The Captain of this vessel identified himself as being from the future.

It appeared there was an imposter by the name of Duros that had been using Exxo's identity and framing him to make it look like he was sabotaging the Huron and her mission, but not without a cause.

While the CTO and his security team were doing sweeps on the Catalina to secure her safety, a booby trapped canister of deadly gas, set by Duros (or was it Exxo?) was set in place.  Amazingly, Exxo had all the codes to drop the shields on the Catalina, and beamed the canister into space, saving the CTO and his team.

Was this because he was the one that sabotaged the vessel in the first place?   Or was this a good faith deed to prove his innocence?  Is the crew of the Huron being set up once more?  With Exxo now on the Huron's bridge, and with the trust of the Captain now semi-earned, will the real Exxo turn out to be friend or foe?

The crew has arrived at Saltok, and they have witnessed five Breen vessels heading into the Hugora Nebula.  Are they fleeing because the Huron has arrived?  Or is this a beginning of the war that Exxo spoke of?  Join us now in what was and will be the beginning (or the end) of the great Legend, Q'tor.

Star Trek, A Call To Duty, is proud to present the USS Huron in … “A Helping Hand”, Chapter Five, “Last Stand at Saltok - Part 1,” Stardate 10702.10

<<<<<<<<<<<< Resume Mission >>>>>>>>>>>>>

ACTION:  The colony detects the arrival of the Huron, and is hailing them.

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::On Bridge, trying to set up a way to block the codes this Duras is using.::

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::On the bridge contacting her engineering staff to deploy repair teams to all decks, just in case.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
::Exiting sickbay and entering the nearest TurboLift.::

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
::Scanning and finds a surprise.::

Duty OPS says:
CO:  We are being hailed by the colony, Sir.

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
TL: Bridge!

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
CO: Sir, I got my lost shuttle.  It is on the planet near the main colony.  I can't find Exxo or his life signs.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
DutyOPS: On screen.

Captain_Exxo says:
::Just hanging back and watching the crew and events unfold before him.::

Duty OPS says:
::Places it on screen.  Looks at Captain Exxo wondering if he's going to turn on them.::

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CO: Sir, detecting no other vessels in system, although there are the Breen like trails going into the nebula.

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
Out Loud: He had better not have damaged her or he is dead.

Kadera Prion says:
#::Sounds like she has a head cold.:: COM: Huron: Welcome, Captain.  My name is Kadera, leader of the federation colony here on Saltok.  ::Coughs and sniffles.:: I'm a little confused.  Your messenger said you would not be arriving for another day or two.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
CTO: Scan that shuttle.  See if you can detect any sort of weapon.

Captain_Exxo says:
::Just looks at the duty OPS and stares at her.::

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
COM: Kadera: My messenger?

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CO: Aye, Captain.  ::Scans the shuttle looking for any signs of any non-standard systems or weapons.::

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
Self: Messenger?  Why that miserable, mealy mouth son of a dog...........!!!

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Listens to the bridge conversation but continues to work away.::

Kadera Prion says:
#COM: Huron CO:  Yes, Lieutenant Exxo.  Oh, how did he get back on your ship?

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
::Gets off the turbolift and steps onto the bridge, seeing that the captain is in comm with someone who is surely a colonist.::

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
CO: Have achieved standard orbit geosynchronous above the shuttle and the colony. 

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Sees an incoming message on her console.:: Self: Good old, Martin.

Captain_Exxo says:
CO:  I don't know what they are talking about, it's not me I tell you.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
COM: Kadera: When did you last see this Lieutenant Exxo, Governor?

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Sees the Executive Officer and motions to her.:: XO: Commander, may I have a moment?

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
Self: I got to hear this one.

Kadera Prion says:
#COM: Huron:  He delivered some medical supplies to us.  ::coughs.::  It is good you are here early because we are in need of those medical supplies.

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
::Walks towards Sparks after she calls for her.::

Kadera Prion says:
#COM: Huron:  Some of our people have become ill.  I think the food supplements he gave us aren't working ::coughs:: very well.  Our replicators are in need of repair, and we have not been able to repair them on our own.  Do you have an engineering team that can beam down to help us?

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
CEO: How can I be of help, Commander?

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
CO: Ask what kind of medical supplies?

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
COM: Kadera:  These medical supplies, what were they and where are they now?

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
::Furiously scanning for anything.::

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
XO: Ensign Martin just sent me this message from the Catalina. His team has cleared all the traps and they were exactly where Captain Exxo said they would be. He's got the Catalina up and running and will arrive at Saltok in thirteen hours.

Captain_Exxo says:
::Mumbles out loud.::  Whispering:  Yea, I know all this.

Kadera Prion says:
#COM: Huron:  We have a few supplies left, but why don't you ask him.  He's on your bridge.  Why is he there?

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
::Slides out her d'takgh from her boot and has it in her hand under the console.::

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
COM: Kadera: Because this is not Lieutenant Exxo.  Now answer my question. Where are these medical supplies?

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CO: Captain, sorry to interrupt, but the Shuttle appears to be normal, outside of its location and isolation.  No one near it, and scans not showing any signs of him on the planet as of yet.

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
Self: If he is not who he is...........::slides it back as her senses tell her that he is who he is.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
CEO: Glad to hear the Catalina is up and running. Most of its crew were sent back to duty. The rest should be relieved from sickbay in an hour or so. I've been in sickbay for a few hours so I'm out of the loop a bit.  Is this ::points to Exxo:: Captain Exxo?

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
XO:  I think we're going to need your medical expertise once again.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Nods.:: XO: Yes, Ma'am, that's him.

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
CEO: Excuse me.  ::Walks towards the Captain.::

Kadera Prion says:
#COM: Huron:  They are on the planet, Captain, but there is little of them.

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
CO: Sorry, Sir, I was half listening to this conversation as Commander Sparks was telling me about the Catalina's status.

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
Captain Exxo: Captain, I'm detecting some energy emissions shadowing the Huron.  Is that your ship, or should we be worried?

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
COM: Kadera:  We are going to send a medical team down.  Gather up what medical supplies and food supplements you have left.

Captain_Exxo says:
CO:  It is nothing to worry about captain, I assure you.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Looks over at Icky for a moment.::

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
::Has already keyed in several escape vectors, plotted various lines of battle for the Huron should the need arise and has attempted to plot the deteriorating ion trails of the retreating Breen ships into the Nebula for a attempted route they took.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
CO: I guess I'm going on a little trip down there. Check the medical supplies and supplements and assess the colonists' medical health?

Kadera Prion says:
#COM: Huron:  You mean the stuff he gave us?

Captain_Exxo says: 
::Mumbling again.:: Thinks to self:  I hope it is.

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
CO:  Sir, I would worry as from what I can tell should the Breen decide to do battle here we don't have too many places to run to.

Kadera Prion says:
#COM: Huron:  We are also having difficulties with some of the colonists.  They're hungry and want food.  Some of them have started fighting with each other.  You may want to send a security team.

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
::Thinks.:: CO: Sir, that is it.

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
CO: Sir, If I may?

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
XO:  Duros, or Exxo, or whoever it is has either already planted, or is trying to plant a bio-weapon.  I need you to determine if those medical supplies, or food supplements are part of that weapon.

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
CO:  Sir, what if Exxo is going to use the people who are fighting over food now to create a diversion so he can plant the bio-weapon?

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Puts Alpha team on ready status and has them report to Transporter Room 1, stopping at ship stores to get re-breathers.::

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
COM: Kadera:  Yes, the stuff he gave you.  We will be sending food and supplies down shortly.

Captain_Exxo says:
CO: Captain, I assure you that this is me, and I have no desire to alter anything on this ship or anyway else.

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
CO:  For all we know he could already have the weapon and is just waiting for this precise moment to plant it.

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
CO:  Let's hope they are not.  It would be advisable to have the Chief Tactical Officer come on the away team.  Do they need any help with repairs?

Kadera Prion says:
#COM: Huron:  Are you sick?  Do you need medicine too?

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
FCO: I think he has, from what we've heard so far.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
XO: Commander, may I return to engineering? With Martin and some of my key people off the ship I need to keep an eye on things there.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
FCO: I am aware of that, Lieutenant.  You will be transporting down to retrieve our shuttle.

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
::Wonders if any one heard her.::

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
CO: Understood.

Captain_Exxo says:
::Starts pacing back and forth, mumbling again.:: Self:  This has to be what I think it is.

Kadera Prion says:
#COM: Huron:  Are you going to send an engineering team down, Captain?  Our replicators are not working.  We are in urgent need of repairs.  Some of the colonists are starting to get upset.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
CTO:  Have a security team meet Commander Odan in the transporter room.

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
::Motions for the Chief Engineering Officer to wait to see if the colonist needs Engineering assistance.::

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
*FCO Ensign Toir*: Report to helm station bridge double time.

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
CO: They seem to be in need of help from all our departments.

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CO: Aye, Sir, already on the way.  I'd like to suggest bio hazard preparations be taken for any away teams.

Captain_Exxo says:
CO:  I would like to go with the team, Captain.

Toir Lorin says: 
*FCO*: Understood Imzadi.

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
::Hears his reply and goes ballistic.::

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
COM: Kadera: You're people are going to have to be patient, Governor.

Captain_Exxo says:
CO:  I believe I might be of some use.  I have knowledge of the virus they are talking about.

Kadera Prion says:
#COM: Huron:  It's not that easy, Captain.  Some of them are sick.  They are worried about their children.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
Captain_Exxo:  Oh no!  Whatever knowledge of the virus you have you can give it to Commander Odan.  You're staying right here next to me.

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
::As the TL deposits Toir Lorin onto the bridge, he walks over to the helm.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
CO: I don't think it would be wise to have all our department heads go down. Maybe focus on tactical and medical first as it is the most pressing issue.

Toir Lorin says:
FCO:  Ready to relieve you, Sir.

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
XO: Any chance we can set up a makeshift isolation center on the surface?

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Waits patiently for a reply.::

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
FCO:  Ensign Toir, I stand relieved and don't call me Imzadi again on duty.  Is that understood, mister!?

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
::Getting frustrated.::  COM: Kadera:  I understand that Governor, but that is your job.  Govern!

Captain_Exxo says:
CO: Oh come on, Captain, what harm will it be?  And besides, I have my own orders to carry out as a captain.  I'm sure you understand.

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
CTO:  We should have all the needed equipment, yes.

Toir Lorin says:
FCO:  Understood, Sir.  I am sorry.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
XO:  I agree, Commander, and that's why you're going with only a medical and security team for the moment.

Kadera Prion says:
#COM: Huron:  I'll do what I can to contain the situation, but I think there is some kind of virus that we have contracted that is making the colonists go nuts.

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
CO:  Sir, permission to head for the transporter room for transport to recover the shuttle?

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
CEO:  You can go to Main Engineering.  Sorry for the delay, wanted to make sure you wouldn't be needed on the ground.

Captain_Exxo says:
CO:  And I can help.  Let me go down there.

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
::Nods at the Captain.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
CTO: Make sure the security team is wearing the proper gear.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
XO: Thank you, Commander.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Turns and heads for the turbolift.::

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
Captain_Exxo: Of course I understand.  But you must understand, that although I have been willing to do what you have asked so far, I don't trust you well enough yet to risk you going to the planet.  Give whatever information you have to Commander Odan.

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
*Sickbay*: Please send a team to Transporter Room 1 with the gear to make a makeshift isolation center.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
FCO: Permission granted.

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CO: Until we get the Replicators fixed, we should start replicating them food and supplies from our own equipment and send it down.  At least alleviate their immediate needs.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
Computer: Deck 16.  ::Stands there waiting.::

Captain_Exxo says:
CO:  I can not do that; then the colonists’ deaths will be on you hands.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
CTO:  Agreed.

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
CO: Thank you, Sir.   Ensign Toir Lorin is my relief Flight Control Officer.  I trust him over any other Flight Control Officer on the ship.

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
XO:  Will re-breathers be enough, or should we go full out?

ACTION:  The TurboLift the Chief Engineering Officer is in sputters along to Main Engineering, and stops with a big jolt.

Captain_Exxo says:
CO:  I know it's hard for you to trust me right now, but you must.  You don't have any other choice.

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
::Spins and heads for the turbo lift and the transporter room.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
CTO:  Re-breathers should be enough for now. We don't know what we are up against. We should have full gear ready in case though.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
::Sighs heavily. ::  Captain_Exxo:  Very well, but no harm had better come to my crew.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Jumps out of the lift as the doors open.::  Self:  Just what I need, a stubborn turbolift.

Captain_Exxo says:
CO:  Thank you, you won't be disappointed.  ::Turns and heads to the TurboLift.::

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
~~~Toir: You better not screw up this time.~~~

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CO:  Permission to join the surface team?

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
CTO: Commander Ec'Thel'Ion.  You will keep Captain Exxo within sight at all times. If he does anything suspicious, take him down.

Captain_Exxo says:
::Shakes his head thinking to himself.:: Self:  Crazy Klingon.

Toir Lorin says:
~~~FCO: I will not, T'Lar. Trust me this once, please.  If you are ever going to trust me, do so now.~~~

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CO: Aye, Sir, I'll try to keep it down to the point where you can... ::Coughs:: interrogate him.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Marches into engineering.:: All : Okay, someone check out turbolift 13, it's acting up.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
CTO: Then we understand each other Commander.  Qapla'

Kadera Prion says:
#Self:  Where are they?  What are they waiting for?

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
CO: We should soon be able to go down.  Might take a while to get enough food for them though.  ::Turns to the Chief Tactical Officer.::

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Walks around the main room checking each console.:: Lewis: Did Ensign Martin assign you that?  ::Points.::

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
XO:  We will start having food beamed down shortly.

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CO: One last thing, we should alter our command codes, make them both different from Starfleet standard, but also something that can't be looked up in the future; if you get my drift.

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
::Enters the transporter room.::

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
XO: Along with the replicators.

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
::Looks around for the transporter chief.::

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
CTO:  Understood.

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
XO: Alpha team is gathering in Transporter Room 1, they should be ready Commander.

Captain_Exxo says:
::Shaking his head again.::  Self:  So untrusting.

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
Exxo/CTO: Let's go to Transporter Room 1 and not have the colonists wait for us much longer.

Captain_Exxo says:
XO:  After you, Commander.

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
XO: Aye, Commander.  ::Turns for the Turbo Lift.::

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Begins a review of the last diagnostics Martin was working on.:: Self: What's this?

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
COM: Kadera: Governor they are not waiting for anything.  They are gathering the supplies they will need to shut.... to help your people.

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
::Heads for the TurboLift and enters it, waiting for Exxo and the Chief Tactical Officer.::

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Follows the Executive Officer.::

Captain_Exxo says:
::Following the Executive Officer’s lead.::

Kadera Prion says:
#COM: Huron:  Sorry, Captain.  ::Coughs::  I think whatever I am coming down with is .. making me really ill.

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
::Stands quietly.::

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Brings up the Huron's specs to check something.:: Self: He's on to something I think.

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
TL: Transporter Room 1.

ACTION:  The Chief Tactical Officer, Exxo, and Executive Officer take the TurboLift and make their way to the transport room, arriving just in time for transport.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
COM: Kadera: A medical team will be arriving in a few moments, Governor.

Kadera Prion says:
#COM: Huron:  Thank you Captain!  We look forward ::coughs:: to getting some answers.

Transport Chief says: 
::Looks at the crew.::  ALL:  Ready for Transport?

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
Self:  Bloody hell, where is everyone?

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
Chief: Aye, but NO ONE goes down without proper bio hazard protection.  Understood?

Transport Chief says: 
CTO:  Aye, Commander.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Transfers the data to a padd and heads back to the bridge.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
CTO: Good reminder.

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
Chief: And anyone coming back from down there needs to go to sickbay for a check up.

ACTION:  The Transport Chief transports the Executive Officer's group to the colony.  As they energize, a colonist throws a small rock in their direction just missing the Executive Officer's head.

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
@Colonist: What? ::pauses:: We are here to help you.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Arrives on the bridge and heads over to the Captain.::

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@::Materializes.::  Alpha Team: Spread out, keep anything of that sort from getting near the Medical teams!

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
Out loud:  Well you finally showed up although I don't need a security detail.

Security 1 says: 
FCO:  Commander Ec’Thel’lon’s orders, Sir.

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
@::Opens her tricorder and scans the colonists.::

Colonist says: 
@::Shouts.::  XO:  You are with that mean man that made us sick!  Where's the food you promised us?

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
Sec 1:  Like I can't take care of myself.  Sheesh!

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
CO: Captain, I think you should have a look at this.  ::Hands him the padd.::

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
Transporter chief:  Beam us to the shuttle, please.

ACTION:  The transport chief beams the Flight Control Officer and her security team to the abandoned shuttle.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
::Looks over the PADD handed to him.::

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@::Steps forward, establishing a perimeter.::  Colonist: We aren't with the one who made you sick, and the food is coming.  Relax, we're here to help you.

Captain_Exxo says:
@::Pulls his wrist device to his eyes and sees the scan he just did himself of the colonist.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
@Colonist: This is not the same man. ::Tries to be convincing as she is not sure she believes what she is saying.::  Food will soon arrive.  We are here to help you.  We will treat you.

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
$::Arrives just outside the shuttle and the security team spreads out.::

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
CO:  Ensign Martin seems to have found a way to alter the Huron's shields so that we're virtually untouchable by any Breen disrupters.

Security 1 says:
$Sec team:  Fan out. One check inside the shuttle before the Flight Control Officer goes inside.

Captain_Exxo says:
@XO: I need medical equipment.  I know what the antibody is, and I can replicate it for you, but I need the equipment.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
CEO: majqa'

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
CO: It's a minor reconfiguration but most effective. I've been looking over the specs and it's doable quite quickly.

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
@Med Team: Find a place to erect the makeshift isolation section.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
CEO: Tell him to make the adjustments.  In the mean time get somebody to start transporting the food and replicators down to the colony.

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
@Exxo: I will be doing the replicating. You tell me what to do.

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
@CTO: Have some of your men help the med team and secure the area.

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@::Looking out over the crowd, listening closely to the mumblings, one hand on Phaser, the other free.::

$ACTION:  A ticking can be heard coming from under a console in the shuttle the Flight Control Officer's team is at.

Captain_Exxo says:
@::Throws his arm down.::   XO: Like I told your captain, I can not give it to you, but I can myself make it for these people.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
CO: He's on the Catalina at the moment, but I'll handle it myself. I'll get on those supplies right away.

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@XO: Aye Commander.  Barium, Fodder, give the Medical folks a hand.  The rest of you, there is now only one way into the isolation center, and I'm standing on it.

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@Bynars: Have some portable field generators set up to make it a hard perimeter, square, 100 meters on a side.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Walks back to the engineering console and begins the modifications.::

Colonist says:
@XO:  Am I going to die?

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
CEO: Very well.

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
@Exxo: You will do it under my supervision. You have to tell me everything you do and let me see everything or you are not doing a thing. I will surely be able to find a cure in time. So we don't really need you, except for saving lives faster.

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
$CO:  I have arrived on the planet.

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
@Colonist: I will not lie to you, maybe. But if you behave and let us help you, you have a lot of chances of surviving.

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
$::Walks into the shuttle and brings up the logs.::

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
*Engineering*: Lewis, the Captain wants those replicators and food supplies beamed down to the colony. Are they ready to go?

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@*Angeltra*: Beam the Bynars down all the portable force field generators you can get located.  I want overkill.

Captain_Exxo says:
@XO:  On this time line, you will not find a cure, believe me.  You can watch if you must; it's your choice.  Watch the people die, or let me help them.

@ACTION:  The other colonists are starting to get upset and hungry, asking for food.

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
$Self: Mother son of a dog!!!!!!!!!!! He wiped the memory clean.

EO Lewis says: 
*CEO*: Just finished, Holly. Ready to beam when we receive clearance.

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
@Exxo: Get to work. But as I've told you, I'm watching you; closely.

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
$CO: Sir, he wiped the memory clean and took all the remaining electronic equipment that had any records on them.  He has............Heu'tuegh lo-be-Vos

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
*Lewis*: The word is given.  ::Wonders where she heard that line before.::

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@::Watches as the Bynars turn the main power perimeter into a force generated one.::  Alpha Team: When your section is up and ready, join the medical teams and do what they say.  You just became nurses for the duration.

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
$::Slams fists on the console.::

$ACTION:  The ticking sound in the shuttle is getting louder.

Captain_Exxo says:
@::Goes over to the medical replicator and begins programming so it can replicate a serum for the colonists.::

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
*FCO*: Can you fly the shuttle?

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
$::Hears a ticking sound.::

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
$CO:  Hold on, Sir.  I hear a ticking sound.

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
@CTO:  Everything okay on your end?

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
$::Goes to look for what she hears.::

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
$CO:  He has made the shuttle un-flyable, Sir.

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@XO: Not noticing any problems yet, Commander.  Oh great, I need some ice to knock on after saying that.

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
@*CO*: We have arrived and Exxo is starting to replicate a serum.  I'm keeping an eye on him.

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
$CO:  What has me worried is the ticking sound.

$ACTION:  A small rodent native to Saltok scurries out over the FCO's toes and runs out of the shuttle.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
CO:  Captain, the replicators and food supplies are being beamed to the colony.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
*XO*: Understood.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
*FCO*: Return to the ship.  We'll tractor the shuttle into the shuttle bay.

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
$::Sees the rodent.::  Out loud: You little son of a b.....!!!

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
@CTO: Help me keep an eye on him.  ::Points at Exxo who is at the medical replicator and heads his way, looking over his shoulder.::

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Continues her modifications to the shield systems.::

Captain_Exxo says:
@XO:  Not so close.  You make me nervous.

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@XO: Aye Commander.  
@Sec: Tote, take the gate.

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
$CO:  Understood, Sir.  There was a rodent here chewing on the wires.  It seems he is the culprit here. Unless Exxo is a metamorphic!

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
@Exxo: I'll give you 1 more inch to breathe, not more.  ::Moves away 1 inch.::

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
$::Walks outside the shuttle and gathers with the security team to beam back to the Huron.::

Captain_Exxo says:
@::Mumbles something under his breath.::

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@::Steps over to the Executive Officer and Exxo's side.::

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
$Transporter Chief:  Flight Control Officer and team ready to beam back to ship.

@ACTION:  Exxo sets up the equipment to do an automatic replication of the antibody for the virus, but blocks the sequence of analyzation.  There is only enough supply for the colonists.  There will be none left over.

Captain_Exxo says:
@XO: That should do it.

ACTION:  Huron sensors pick up 9 Breen warships exiting the Hugora Nebula and approaching from Huron's aft.  The duty CTO's console lights up like a Christmas tree with warnings; estimated time of arrival 15 minutes.

Toir Lorin says:
~~~FCO: You better get your butt up here.  We got company.~~~

Angeltra says: 
CO: Captain, picking up nine Breen Warships exiting the nebula.  ETA...15 minutes and counting!

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
@Exxo: I want to scan it before we administer it.

ACTION:  Huron sensors now detect 9 more Breen warships off their port.  They are heavily armed, shields raised, weapons hot, and heading toward Huron; estimated time of arrival, 22 minutes.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Looks over at Angeltra.:: Angeltra:  What kind of weapons?

Captain_Exxo says:
@XO:  There isn't much time.  We have to give it to them now.

Angeltra says:
CO: Nine more from port side this time, ETA 22 minutes.  
CEO: I'll analyze weapons now.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
*CEO*: Commander, if you can make those changes to the shields, now is the time to do so.

ACTION:  Exxo's ship uncloaks off Huron's hull.

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
@::Shoots a not pleasant glare at Exxo and scans the antibody medicine.::

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Punches the last of the modification codes into the shield grid.::

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
$CO: You better get me beamed directly to the bridge, Sir.  You got company.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
CO: Almost done, Captain.

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@XO: Is everything to your satisfaction, need a hand distributing, or a hand...elsewhere.

Captain_Exxo says:
@::His wrist beeps.::  Out loud:  Darn it.  ::Hits his wrist and transports back to his vessel.::

ACTION:  Captain Exxo disappears off the planet.

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
@CTO/Exxo:  Looks good.  We can start distributing it with the medical team.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
*XO*/*FCO*: All away teams, be advised we have company and lots of it.  Stand by for transport back to the ship.

ACTION:  The Flight Control Officer beams to sickbay.

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@XO: Where in the blizzards of the unknown did he go to?

ACTION:  As Exxo beams off the planet back to the Pegasus, the Pegasus cloaks again.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
Angeltra: Arm all weapons!

Toir Lorin says:
CO: All escape vectors already laid in and plotted.  All attack runs laid in and plotted.

Angeltra says:
CO: Aye Sir, weapons going to hot, ready on your orders.

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
~~~Toir: Lay in the escape vectors I have already laid in and the attack runs.~~~

FCO_Ltjg_T`Lar_Bishara says:
~~~T'Lar: Already anticipated that.~~~

Host XO_Cmdr_Odan says:
@*CO*:  Exxo has beamed off.
