Mission Prologue:  

Last time on USS Huron …

The USS Huron continued to Pandora Prime pushing her engines as fast as they could go.  Meanwhile there were two loose spirits on the ship looking for bodies to host them.   Conversation with Pandora Prime left nothing more than a bunch of riddles that made no sense to the crew.

Do we live in the past or do we focus on the future?
The strength of our future lies in protecting our past.
And the spirit is the one thing we have to rely on.
Everything the power of the universe does is done in a circle.  Look for the light in the dark.  Look for the glowing ember.

Could this ember be the fire that was lit by Counselor Talora?  And if it is, does that mean that the counselor possesses one or both of the spirits?  Or is there another spirit out there waiting to be found?

Star Trek, A Call To Duty, is proud to present
The USS Huron in …
“Pandora's Box”

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

ACTION:  Doctor Stradiot leaves sickbay in the hands of Medical Officer Lt. Bradley to review the scans he had taken of Counselor Talora.  She is still doing her dance in the medical office.  The door is open, and she is making a lot of noise, calling out in some unknown language.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Still in sickbay awaiting her turn to be scanned.::

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
::Looking at the translation she finished and is mesmerized in the fact that the meaning is quite deep and unusual.::

Medical Technician/Clarissa says:
::Comes up behind the Chief Engineering Officer and taps her on the shoulder.::  CEO:  Excuse me, Commander.  Doctor Stradiot requested I take you next in case we encounter any problems with engineering systems that you may need to tend to.

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
::Standing beside the Chief Tactical Officer and looks over at the Chief Engineering Officer.::  CEO: It won't hurt Commander.  At least it didn't me.

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
::On the bridge at his station, wondering what will happen next.::

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
Clarissa: Thank you, but what is this all about?

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
XO: Promise, Sir?  ::Smiles and follows the tech.::

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
::Realizes that she is having twins and has a horrible thought.::

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
OPS:  Anything that may actually prove useful from the Pandorans?

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
::Laughing.::

Medical Technician/Clarissa says:
CEO:  We're looking for signs of our other spirit.  We're guessing the Counselor has one of them, but one's still missing.  Can you hop up on the biobed?

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
CO:  No, Sir.  I don't think they DO useful.

ACTION:  Huron's tactical sensors are picking up an energy formation in their direct path to Pandora Prime.

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion_ says:
CNS:  Counselor, why didn't you mention your mother was the officer making First Contact with the Pandorans?  That might have been useful, knowing you knew something.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Hops onto the biobed.::  Clarissa:  Spirits?

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
Self:  Oh my heavens, what if the spirit wants one of my babies?  ::Shakes the thought from her head and goes back to reading the interpretation she has on the PADD.::

Angeltra says: 
CO: Captain, we've got a gaseous anomaly ahead.

ACTION:  The counselor ignores the Chief Tactical Officer and continues to dance around the candle.  She pushes the Chief Tactical Officer out of the way toward the doorway.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Dangles her feet anxiously.::

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
OPS:  It's a wonder these people were able to develop an advanced warp drive system.

Angeltra says:
CO: Over 600,000 kilometers thick with thermobaric properties, whatever that means.  Will slow us up if we try to push through it, ETA 2 hours to get through.  Half hour to go around.

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
CTO:  You alright, Commander?

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
CO:  Aye, Sir.

Medical Technician/Clarissa says:
::Begins to scan her.::  CEO:  You have pretty eyes, Commander.  But definitely no hosted spirits in you.  ::Snickers.::

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion_ says:
CNS:  Hey!  What's gotten into you...er, maybe that's the wrong question.

Medical Technician/Clarissa says:
CEO:  I'm hoping that will make you happy.

ACTION:  The Counselor hands the Chief Tactical Officer a box of paperclips and motions for him to shake it with her.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
Clarissa:  So I'm free to go?

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
::Scans the energy formation, checks for threats to the Huron's systems and inhabitants.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
CTO:  Would it be wise to try to stop her?  This is crazy.

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
::Listens to the Counselor as she chants and gets caught up in the rhythm of it.::

Medical Technician/Clarissa says:
CEO:  Well, you are free for sickbay.  But I believe the Captain's order was that everyone needed to be quarantined in sickbay.

MO_Lt_Bradley says:
FCO:  There now, my dear.  How about you let me scan you?  You look uncomfortable.  You feeling okay with the pregnancy so far?

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
CO:  I vote, we go around.

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion_ says:
XO:  Considering she's the only one that may have any experience with these beings?  I dunno.  Playing this fast and loose until we figure some things out.

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
::Remembers he doesn't get a vote.::

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
::Looks at the Medical Officer with a blank stare.::

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion_ says:
::Shrugs and starts shaking the paper clips.::

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
Clarissa:  How am I supposed to do my job if I'm stuck in sickbay?

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
::Lowers his head and shakes it.::  Self: This is crazy.

ACTION:  The Counselor puts her hands on the Chief Tactical Officer's back and starts pushing him to dance.

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion_ says:
XO:  Fast and loose is one thing.  This is strange.

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
::Overhearing the Chief Engineering Officer.::  CEO: I am sorry, Commander, but it is captain's orders that we all remain here.

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion_ says:
CNS:  I'm afraid I don't know that dance.  Can you tell me where it's from?

Medical Technician/Clarissa says:
CEO:  Well sickbay is not keeping you here.  Captain is.  If you want to COM him and ask him if you can leave, I'm okay with it.  As long as he approves, you're good to go, ma'am.

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
::Softly.:: Out loud: The Circle of Life..........

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
::Watching the Chief Tactical Officer and Counselor.::  CTO: Enjoy yourself.  I don't dance.  ::Laughing.::

ACTION:  The Counselor picks up a stapler and begins to tap it open and closed, then passes it to the Chief Tactical Officer and continues in her dance.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Jumps off the bed and looks at the Executive Officer.::  XO:  Sir, this is crazy.  I'm an engineer that needs to engineer.  ::Sighs.::

MO_Lt_Bradley says:
FCO:  Are you okay, Commander?  Do you need to lie down?

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
CEO:  I know, Commander.  I don't want to be in here any more then you do.

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion_ says:
::Takes the stapler and tosses the paper clips to the Executive Officer.::

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Nods to Clarissa but concentrates on the Executive Officer's direction.::

ACTION:  The Counselor passes another box of paperclips to the Chief Tactical Officer.

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
*Bridge*:  How much longer till we reach Pandora Prime?  Some of us can't take this craziness much longer.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
XO:  Sir, what are we supposed to do here?

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
::Chants.:: Out loud:  Oh Great Spirit, of the Pandoran people, hear my words.  For they are words that come from the heart, soul and mind.  Oh Great Spirit, Be my mind, be my eyes, be my ears, be my heart, be my soul, so that I may walk with dignity and pride. 

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
Helm:  ETA to Pandora?

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
CEO:  Wait till we reach Pandora Prime.  ::Grumbling.::

MO_Lt_Bradley says:
::Begins to scan the Flight Control Officer.::  CTO:  Sir, I think we have a problem here.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Throws up her hands.:: Aloud: This is all too much!

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion_ says:
Lt Bradley:  Just one?  That means we're making progress.

Medical Technician/Clarissa says:
CEO:  Would you like a box of paper clips to keep you busy, Ma'am?  ::Looks at her and snickers.::  Just kidding.  Do you want me to free up a console for engineering stuff for you?

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
*XO*: Two hours or thirty minutes, Sir. It is still to be decided.

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion_ says:
Computer: Twenty years ago, was Counselor Talora stationed with her mother on the ship when they made first contact with the Pandorans?

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Gives Clarissa a look that would freeze even an Andorian.::  Clarissa:  Get me out of here and to engineering!

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
*OPS*:  Can't we get any more speed out of this bird?

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
Helm: Chart a course around the cloud.

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
CO:  I'll try, Sir.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
OPS:  Full sensor sweep of that cloud.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
*XO*:  Thirty minutes, Commander

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
::Does his best to find the Huron some more speed.::

Computer says: 
CTO:  Counselor Talora was not on the vessel that made first contact.  Counselor Talora was born 2 months later though.

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
Out Loud: Oh great spirit of the Pandoran people, know of me.  For I am of your people, I am Pandoran, a Pandoran of the Circle of Life, a prisoner of war, in my own land.......::stops speaking.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
*CO*:  It's getting crazy down here, Sir.

ACTION:  The cloud shifts position and moves in the direction of the Huron when they try to alter course, once again in the Huron's path.

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion_ says:
Self:  Is that better or worse?

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
CO:  I had scanned the cloud, Sir.  Waiting on results.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
*XO*:  We're going as fast as we can, Commander.

MO_Lt_Bradley says:
CTO:  As I was saying, Commander.  We have a problem here.  I've found the other spirit.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
Helm:  I said go around the cloud.

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
::Turns to the Medical Officer.::   MO: What do you mean another spirit?  One isn't enough?

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
CO:  It seems the cloud is blocking our path again, Sir.

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
::Goes and sits next to the candle and stares off into emptiness.::

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion_ says:
MO:  I'd consider that a mis-statement.  Now at least we know.  Scan Counselor Talora, let's see if she's been possessed now or...scan her next.

MO_Lt_Bradley says:
XO:  Not my fault, Sir.  Let's just hope they haven't multiplied either.  At this rate, I'm not sure what they're capable of.  But the spirit is in the Flight Control Officer.  Her child is possessed with it.  It is not affecting the child though.

ACTION:  Counselor Talora hears her name and slams the door in the medical office, locking it behind her.

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
::Continues to finish the full chant.:: Out loud: Oh great spirit of the Pandoran people, hear my words for they are for you.  They are of you; you are my way of life in the circle of life.

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
MO:  And I take it there is nothing that can be done?

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
CO: The cloud seems to be following us, like it was curious about us.  My scan says the cloud has similar energy properties of a thermobaric cloud.

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
*CO*:  We have another problem, Sir.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
OPS:  It has signs of intelligence?

Medical Technician/Clarissa says:
CEO:  Can you go see what happened with the Counselor?  ::Pulls on the door.::  It looks like this is locked.  Can you find a way to override it?

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
Self:  Of course there is.  

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
*CO*:  We have another spirit, and it has taken the unborn child of Lieutenant Bishara.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
*XO*: What is it, Commander?

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
Out loud: I am here keeper of the fire and the fire is lit.  I am but one of its vessels.  Do with me as you please for I am of Pandora, and I am willing to give what must be given.

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
FCO:  What do you mean, you are of Pandora?

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Walks over to the door.::  Clarissa:  Let me try and access the manual override.  ::Opens the panel beside the door.::

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
CO:  Aye, Captain. They appear to have some intelligence.

MO_Lt_Bradley says:
CTO/XO:  At this point, I don't know how to get them out of the bodies.

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
Out loud: I am of Pandora, and I am the vessel that holds the one that will be given to the emissary who is to receive the gift.

ACTION:  Counselor Talora closes the blinds in the office.  The lights can be seen outside as flickering on and off.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
*XO*:  Another spirit?  You mean there's three now?

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
MO:  Monitor the Lieutenant's bio signs for any change.  At least you may watch if it effects her.

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
::Runs further tests on the cloud, including ways to communicate with it.::

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Examines the system and tries to gain access.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
*CO*:  Yes, no idea were it came from.  That's what the doctor reports.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
Aloud:  What I'd give for a hair pin about now.

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion_ says:
CEO:  Paper clip work?

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
Out loud: I am just a host that carries the spirit that is to be transferred to the one that is in need to complete the circle of life.

Medical Technician/Clarissa says:
::Pulls a hairpin from her head.::  CEO:  Will this do?

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
::Reaches in his hair and pulls one out that was helping to hold his hair up.::  CEO:  Will this help?

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
*MO*:  Would it be safe to sedate those that are possessed?

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Smiles at Icky.:: CTO: Anything is worth a shot dear. Got one on you?

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion_ says:
::Opens the box the Counselor had him shaking and passes her a couple.::  CEO: Compliments of the possibly possessed Counselor.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Takes the hairpins and the paperclip.:: All: Thanks, this might just do it.

MO_Lt_Bradley says:
*CO*:  Honestly, Sir.  We know nothing about their kind.  We could try though.  Would you like me to?

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
::Uses sonar sensors to try and pick up any sounds or vibrations made by the cloud.::

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
Out loud: The future is our past which must never be lost but for always remembered and passed into the next generation.  All life revolves around the past and on into the future of our culture.  The fire must not go out.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
*XO*: We have our own bad news up here, Commander.  It would seem there is some sort of energy cloud that is trying to block our path to Pandora.

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
*CO*:  If we seate them, the spirits just may leave and take another host.

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
CO:  Sir, it is just an energy cloud, I don't see it as a threat.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Fashions a crude spanner and inserts it into the door mechanism.:: CTO: Be ready to grab the door, Icky.

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
Out loud:  We must get home before the 7th moon cycle.  We must make it or everything will be lost forever.

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
*CO*:  Can you transfer engineering controls to sickbay?  Maybe the Chief Engineering Officer can figure out how to get or cut through it.

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion_ says:
::Grabs the door as it opens to make sure it doesn't shut on it's own.::

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
CO:  We should make Pandora in ten minutes, Sir. Tell the zombies to, hang on.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
*MO*: If they appear that they may cause any harm you may want top sedate them.  For now keep them in quarantine.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
OPS:  Then plot a course around it.

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
::Begins to rock in a state of trance next to the candle.::

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
CTO:  Got it, Icky?

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion_ says:
CEO: Got it.  Seems to be staying open, but I'll make certain.

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
Out loud:  Where is the keeper of the fire?  Where have you taken her?  Why did you take her away?

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
CO:  Aye, Sir.  ::Plots a new course and sends it to the helmsman's console.::

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
*XO*: Has Commander Sparks been cleared?

MO_Lt_Bradley says:
*CO*:  Aye, Sir.  They appear at this point to be more entertaining than anything, Captain.

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
*CO*: Yes, Sir.

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
Helm: That should do it.

ACTION:  As the Huron changes course, the cloud dissipates.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
*XO*: Then let her, and everyone else that has been cleared so far, return to their posts.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Peers inside the door.:: CNS: Counselor?

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
ALL:  Attention everyone.

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
ALL:  Everyone that has been cleared by the Doctor may return to their posts.

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
CO:  The sky is clearing up, Sir.  The cloud is breaking up.

ACTION:  The Counselor hears the Executive Officer and immediately goes to attention, but stares blankly ahead .. no expression on her face.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
OPS:  Excellent.  Best speed to Pandora Prime.

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
CTO:  Keep a security detail here to watch over the ones the doctor hasn't cleared.

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
CO:  Aye, Sir. Best speed.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Walks up to the Counselor and gently shakes her.::  CNS:  Counselor?

ACTION:  The counselor just stares ahead, no expression.  She does not hear anything.

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion_ says:
XO:  Aye, Sir.  But for all it's worth, what's to keep the spirits from following, leaving the bodies "secured"?

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
MO:  Check the counselor out.  Is she alright?

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
::He told OPS to do it so, he has been dying to fly this thing; takes control from helm and solos.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
CTO:  I have no idea.  ::Shrugs.::

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Stares at the Counselor not sure what to do next.::

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
::Continues to rock next to the candle not hearing anything.::

MO_Lt_Bradley says:
::Begins to run a scanner over the Counselor.::  XO:  She seems fine; she still has the spirit in her.  Help me get her to a biobed, please.

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
::Follows his course, straight on to Pandora.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
MO:  No, let’s leave her.  Don't want to disturb the spirit.  Monitor where she is.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
Bradley:  Anything I can do?

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
Out loud:  Where is the keeper of the fire?  What have you done with her?  Why have you taken her?

MO_Lt_Bradley says:
XO:  I'm not sure leaving her is a good idea, Sir.  What if she falls?  She could hit her head.

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
::Guesses no one minds, he's flying the ship now.  This job is sooo trip!::

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
MO:  Then stand there and hold her.  I don't care.  This is getting too weird.  I don't want to upset it anymore than we have too.

MO_Lt_Bradley says:
CEO:  I'm wondering what the connection is between the two of them.  ::Points to the Flight Control Officer and the Counselor.::  Perhaps if we put them together?  The Counselor started out chanting.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
Bradley:  At this point, it can't hurt, right?

MO_Lt_Bradley says:
XO:  I can do that, Sir, but who's going to scan all these other people?

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
MO:  Good idea, let’s move the Lieutenant in here and keep them together.

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
::Checks Pandora’s orbital situation, looking for a place to park.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
CTO:  Help me try to move Bishara in here with the Counselor.  ::Moves to the Flight Control Officer.::

MO_Lt_Bradley says:
CEO:  Maybe we can get the Flight Control Officer in the same room as the Counselor.  At least it would make it easier if we had to quarantine them.  But is there a way you can override the locking mechanism on the door to keep them from locking themselves in here again?

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion_ says:
XO:  Aye sir.  ::Gives him a hand.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
::Grabs one arm.::  FCO: Come on.  Let’s go and see your friend.

Medical Technician/Clarissa says:
ALL:  Wait.  You know what happened last time we put the Princess and Dremel together, don't you?  What if it happens again?

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
*XO*:  Commander, we're about to enter Pandora's orbit.  Prepare the possessed personnel for transport.

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
COM: Pandora: This is the Huron. Please send us coordinates for orbital position.  We have arrived.

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
MO:  No, I don't know what happened.

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
XO:  You are taking me to the keeper of the fire?

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Smiles.::  Bradley: That I can do. Just let me get my handy dandy paperclip.

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
*CO*:  Couldn't be better timing, Sir.  We were just putting them together.

MO_Lt_Bradley says:
::Chuckles at the Chief Engineering Officer.::  CEO:  Sounds like we're coming up on Pandora Prime.  The last thing we want to do is have them lock themselves in a room that we don't have access to.

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
FCO: Yes, we are.  This way.

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion_ says:
XO:  She's got a point.  Last time they "met" it started this whole mess.

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
XO:  Good the circle must be completed.

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
::Walks with the Executive Officer.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
CTO:  Maybe putting them together may fix it all back then.  Who knows what will happen, but I'm not going to just sit here.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Stands by the doorway working on the panel.::

Medical Technician/Clarissa says:
XO/CTO:  How long before we can beam them down to the planet?

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
::Receives information about where to park.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
MO:  We are just now going into orbit.

ACTION:  Pandora Prime sends a text COM giving coordinates for transport to the planet.

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
CO:  Sir, I'm dropping us out of warp, coming into Pandora at quarter impulse.

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
Self: Woooo Hooooo!

MO_Lt_Bradley says:
XO/CTO:  Well I suppose if they wanted to be together, they would have found a way anyhow.  Let's do it.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
OPS: Inform transporter control to prepare to transport the possessed people to the coordinates.

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
Self:  Whoa, doggies.

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
CO:  Aye, Sir.

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
::Sees the Counselor.:: Out loud: You are the fire keeper!  I am the one that contains the spirit of the one that will give for the one to live.

Medical Technician/Clarissa says:
CEO:  Feels like we just dropped out of warp.  I hope that's a good sign.

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
::Sends the Captain's message to the transporter chief.::

aCSO says: 
OPS:  Your enthusiasm is overwhelming.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
*XO*:  Commander, we're here.  Do you have everything ready?

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
CO: Thank you, Sir.

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
CO:  Standard orbit, Sir?

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
Clarissa:  Good timing I'd say.

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
*CO*:  Ready and waiting, Sir.  Are we all going together or just the effecting one's?

Transporter Chief Warner says: 
*OPS*:  This is Chief Warner.  We are ready to transport on your command.  Will the transportees be showing up here, or am I transporting from a specific location?

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
*XO*:  We'll start with them and an escort.  Would you like to volunteer?

Medical Technician/Clarissa says:
CEO:  I'll say.  ::Breathes a sigh of relief.::  Thank you for your help.  What a hard day at the office this has been!

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
::Grumbles.::  *CO*:  That will be fine, Captain.  ::Saying with a little grumpiness in his voice.::

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
OPS:  Begin the transports.

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
CO:  Sir, will they be going to the transporter room or will the transporter room go to the, so called, possessed?

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion_ says:
*CO*:  Also send myself, Angeltra, and PO Martin.  Don't think the pups are up to the class required.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Smiles and nods.:: Clarissa: You can relax once we get those two bodies off the ship.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
*CTO*: Take whoever you need.  I'll be meeting you on the surface.

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
CO:  Aye, Sir.  ::Gives word to the Transporter Chief Warner to proceed.::

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
::Is with the Counselor and talking in an unknown language as the rite intends for it to do.::

Medical Technician/Clarissa says:
CEO:  Thank you.  I will.  I'll let Doctor Stradiot know what you did to help here, Ma'am.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
::Gets up to leave.::  OPS: I'm on my way to the transporter room.

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
CO:  Sir? Oh, okay.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
Clarissa: All part of the job, Ma'am. ::Smiles and walks towards the Executive Officer.:: XO: Anything else you need, Sir?

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
::Wonders which one of those left on the bridge is the boss.  This is just like them horror movies, they all disappear one by one.  Now the Captain is gone.  I'm alone.  Laughs.::

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
OPS: The bridge is yours, Ensign.  Don't scratch the paint.

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
CO:  Huh?

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
OPS:  And stay out of my seat.

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
CO:  Oh, yes, Sir.  I mean, no, Sir. I won't sit there.

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
CO:  Me?

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
OPS:  Did I stutter?  Yes, you.

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
CEO:  No more, Commander.  Report to the Captain.  I'm transporting down to the planet with them.  ::Points to the possessed ones.::

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
CO:  Aye, aye, Sir.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
XO:  Aye, Sir. Good luck.  You're going to need it I think.

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
CEO:  Thanks.  ::Grumbles.::

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
::Gets serious and goes to his console to bring the Huron in to Standard Orbit status.::

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion_ says:
CEO:  We'll be fine.  They aren't threatening, just...weird.

Transporter Chief Warner says:
*XO*:  How many to transport, Sir?

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
::Stands with the Executive Officer and the group to be transported.::

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
::Enters the turbo-lift and heads for the transporter room.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
*Transporter Chief Warner*:  Six; myself, Chief Tactical Officer and 2 Security, along with the Flight Control Officer and Counselor.

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
::Smiles, very big.::  Self: In charge of the bridge.  Not bad.

Transporter Chief Warner says:
*XO*:  I have a lock on you.  Tell me when.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Winks at Icky.::  CTO:  Weird is part of this job too, Commander.  Be careful.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
::Sarcastically.::  Self:  This should be tlhaQ <fun>.

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
*Transporter Chief Warner*:  Energize.

@ACTION:  The group in Sickbay are transported to the planet where they are met by several Pandorans similar to Dremel.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
*CO*:  Sir, this is Commander Sparks.  Commander Naug told me to report to you.

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
@Out loud:  I am the one that holds the spirit that is to be given to the one that needs.

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
@::Looks around and sees the Pandorans.::   Pandorans:  Can you help us.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
*CEO*:  Meet me in transporter room 1, Commander.

@~~~ XO:  You are missing two very important people.~~~

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
::In standard orbit. Begins standard orbit ship protocols.::

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
*CO*: Aye, Sir.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Heads off to the transporter room wondering what's coming next.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Naug says:
@Pandoran Makita:  And who might that be.

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
::Sends out instruction for his crew, except for the ones possessed, of course.  They're excused.::

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
::Leaves the turbo lift and heads into the transporter room to wait for the Chief Engineering Officer.::

CTO_Cmdr_Ec`Thel`Ion_ says:
@::Looks out at the landscape, trying to see if it's that much different from other worlds we've been to.::

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
::Arrives in transporter room one.:: CO: Sorry for keeping you waiting, Captain.

OPS_Ens_Riley says:
::Looks back, over his shoulder and stares at the Command Chair, and thinks, and wonders, then has to fight really, really hard not to go sit in it.  He shakes it off and resists.::

FCO_Lt_Bishara says:
@::Stands next to the Counselor waiting patiently.::

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
CEO:  No problem, Commander.  It's not like I'm in any real hurry to go myself.

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
::Steps up to the transport pad.::

ACTON:  The landscape/buildings of the planet are very simple.  The Pandoran society is a country setting in the woods with plant and animal life similar to Earth.  Lots of chicken-like creatures are running around.

CEO_Cmdr_Sparks says:
CO:  All this talk about spirits has got me spooked too, Sir.  ::Steps up beside him.::

Transporter Chief Bradley says:
CO:  Ready to energize, Sir?

Host CO_CAPT_Q`tor says:
Transporter Chief:  Energize!
