Host SM_Darlene says:
Last time on ACTD Kootenai Station…

During the interrogation of the prisoner Oty, the crew was able to confirm it was the Kezlarite Liberation Movement who was responsible for the bombing of both the station chapel and the Governor's office.  The group was also responsible for the kidnapping of the Governor and Captain Kerst.

Oty agreed to arrange a meeting with his group's leader, Opo in exchange for freedom from the military prison for himself and the rest of the prisoners.

When questioned as to why his group had bombed the station chapel and kidnapped the Governor and Captain Kerst, he stated that his group wanted to get the attention of the Federation and the Kezlarite Government in order to stop the oppression of the Kezlarian people.  Captain Kerst was taken as a witness to the meeting between Opo and the Governor

It was agreed by the XO, CNS & OPS that Oty be taken back to the San Carlo, however when they tried to exit the interrogation room they were stopped and arrested by Commander Ora who is now head of the Kezlarite Government.  The senior staff was locked inside a holding cell and the San Carlo has been confiscated and towed to a holding area on the planet.

The crew of the San Carlo is being brought to the military base for processing along with the senior officers.  All crew will be taken to a slave camp on the other side of the planet.

Time lapse: 10 minutes

Host SM_Darlene says:
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Resume Kootenai Mission>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Guard_Thug says:
All: Alright you lot, move it! ::Watches as the last of the crew form the ship are put into their cells::

OPS_Spicer says:
XO: Perhaps we can turn the guard to our side?

XO_Marek says:
OPS: How do you suggest to do so, Lieutenant.?

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Crosses her arms and growls::

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: The rest of the San Carlo crew is arriving in the cellblock and being locked into the holding cells.  The guard passing out the slop stops in front of the senior staff's cell and begins serving slop in dirty bowls to the crew through a small hole in the forcefield.

OPS_Spicer says:
XO: We could appeal to his humanitarianism.  ::Cheesy grin::

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: Another guard stands watch as the food is passed through the forcefield.

XO_Marek says:
All: As I told you before, be careful with the food and beverages.

CSO_Hayes says:
Guard: Let me go! ::Moves around a bit::

CNS_Alana says:
XO: There are more of us than them, why don't we just rush the guards at once?

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Sighs as her stomach growls too::

XO_Marek says:
OPS: I see.  Well, it is a possibility.  Are you sure about the lack of power of the COM badges?

Guard_Thug says:
CSO: Get in there and quit messing around or I'll give you a taste of this!  ::Waves a short club at the CSO::

XO_Marek says:
CNS: I remind you, Counselor, that they are armed, know the facility and we don't want to make our situation worse.

OPS_Spicer says:
XO: We could try it but I think we have a better chance of using the COM badges to create a harmonic resonance with the end caps of the forcefield emitters. That could crack them and it would be a simple matter of dislodging the emitters.

Guard_Thug says:
Senior Staff: Step back and make room for yer new roomie!

CNS_Alana says:
::Nods::

CSO_Hayes says:
Guard: I've seen worse!

XO_Marek says:
::Gives a cold glance at the guard:: Guard: If you ask it so kindly.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Looks up at the Guard and snarls, baring her teeth::

CNS_Alana says:
::Walks toward the XO and motions him to the side::

Guard_Thug says:
All: BACK AWAY FROM THE FORCE FIELD NOW!

OPS_Spicer says:
::Backs away from the forcefield and watches the cell opening to discover where the force field emitters are::

XO_Marek says:
::Moves next to the CNS::

CSO_Hayes says:
::Moves again trying to free herself::

Guard_Thug says:
CSO: And you....::Whacks his club against the wall, a bright flash comes from the impact indicating the club is no mere club::

CNS_Alana says:
XO: Sir, Have you noticed that when they pass the food thru the cell the forcefield drops a little?  Perhaps that could be our way out if we could get it to fall at that time.

Guard_Thug says:
Guard 7: Lower the field.

Guard_Thug says:
<Guard 7> Yes, Sir.  ::Lowers the forcefield on the door::

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: The forcefield is lowered however there are at least 10 armed guards with their weapons pointed at the senior staff in the cell.

CNS_Alana says:
::Turns and nods toward the doorway::

XO_Marek says:
CNS: Hmmm ... ::Raises an eyebrow:: Maybe it could work but we must very precise.

Guard_Thug says:
CSO: Get in there!  ::Pushes the CSO in the cell by pushing his pain giver into her back sending a painful electric shock into her::

CNS_Alana says:
::Nods::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Twitches her tail back and forth slowly as she thinks::

XO_Marek says:
::Sees the guard:: CNS: On the other hand... ::Points to the guards::

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: The guard serving the slop shoves the rest of the bowls into the cell when the forcefield is lowered.  The CSO is shocked with the pain stick.

XO_Marek says:
CNS: Keep developing your plan, Counselor.

CSO_Hayes says:
::Feels electricity going through her body and falls on the ground as the guard pushes her::

Guard_Thug says:
CSO: Come on get up ::Kicks the CSO: I thought you Feddies were suppose to be tough.

XO_Marek says:
::Sees the CSO:: Guard: Hey, hold on a minute!

CNS_Alana says:
XO: Yes, Sir!

OPS_Spicer says:
::Helps the CSO up:: CSO: Are you okay, Ensign? ::Flashes an evil look at the guard::

XO_Marek says:
::Moves next to the Guard and attempts to hit him.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Moves forward quickly and helps the CSO up::

Guard_Thug says:
::Smiles::

XO_Marek says:
::Throws his fist::

Guard_Thug says:
::Motions to Guard 12::

CSO_Hayes says:
::Tries to get up with the help of the others:: All: Yeah, I'll ... be fine...

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: The guards outside the cell fire a beam at the XO, knocking him to the floor.

XO_Marek says:
::Falls heavily::

OPS_Spicer says:
Guards: That is enough!!

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: The guards then fire on OPS, knocking him to the floor too.

XO_Marek says:
::Still unconscious::

OPS_Spicer says:
::Falls backward to the floor stunned::

CSO_Hayes says:
::Shakes her head and takes a few deep breaths as she feels the electricity slowly stop hurting::

CNS_Alana says:
::Runs to XO, kneeling::  XO: are you alright?

Host SM_Darlene says:
<Oty> ::Shouts from the other cell:: XO: I told you!

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Growls at the guards and moves the CSO to the back of the cell::

Guard_Thug says:
All: As guests of the Kezlarian Correctional System you all get a free set of brand new clothing.  CSO strip out of what you have on and put these on. ::Throws several sets of bright hot pink jumpsuits into the cells::

XO_Marek says:
::Begins to regain conscience:: CNS: Huh?

Guard_Thug says:
::Steps back out of the cell and motions for the forcefield to come back up::

CNS_Alana says:
::Shakes her head as she sees XO regaining consciousness::

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: The forcefield is activated.

XO_Marek says:
CNS: Thank you, I'm fine. ::Stands up::

CNS_Alana says:
::Looking back at OPS then again at XO::

CSO_Hayes says:
::Looks at the guard walking off and then at the crew surrounding her... not knowing who they are::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Looks down at the CSO:: CSO: You okay, child?

OPS_Spicer says:
::Regains consciousness and slowly stands::

CSO_Hayes says:
CTO: Yes, yes, I'll be fine. I didn't expect such a welcoming party on my first day though.

Guard_Thug says:
All: Better put them nice new cloths on.  There's only two ways outta here. One's wearing them jumpsuits, the other's in a box.

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: The odor in the cellblock stinks to high heaven and the slop in the bowls is even worse.

XO_Marek says:
OPS/CSO: Are you all right?

XO_Marek says:
::Sees the uniforms and thinks: Okay, that's it!::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Twitches her tail and sighs:: CSO: We'll get out of herrre, okay?

XO_Marek says:
All: We must draw a line here.

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: The guards outside the cell wave their beam weapons at the senior staff, signaling that they had better put on the pink uniforms.

CSO_Hayes says:
XO: Yes, Commander, weird way to meet you, Sir, but I'm the new CSO.

XO_Marek says:
All: We are not to tolerate this kind of humiliation from this bunch of... Neanderthals

OPS_Spicer says:
XO: Yes, I am fine, Sir.

XO_Marek says:
CSO: Nice to meet you too, Ensign.  But let the salute aside for the moment. The situation urges.

Guard_Thug says:
All: CHANGE NOW OR I'LL HAVE TO START PERSWADING!

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
Guard: I'm not changing in frrront of everrryone.

CSO_Hayes says:
XO: Of course, Sir. ::Hears the guard:: Persuading?

Guard_Thug says:
CTO: Then turn your back, I won't mind. ::Grins::

XO_Marek says:
Guard: Don't you have any decency around here? I swear that you all pay for this!

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: The guards outside the cell move into a line in front of the cell, aiming their beam weapons at the senior staff, getting ready to fire.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Flicks her ears back and snarls::

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: The door to the cellblock opens up and loud growls can be heard coming from the doorway as Bailey lumbers in being held at bay by the guards.

XO_Marek says:
::Feels an enormous rage of anger:: Guard: You idiot! ::Jumps to him and tries one more time to knock him down::

Host SM_Darlene says:
<Bailey> ::Growls as the guards move aside and the forcefield in the senior staff cell deactivates and they push Bailey inside with the rest of the crew.

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: Once he is inside the forcefield goes up again.

CSO_Hayes says:
::Looks at the others as she is unsure of the situation::

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: The XO hits the forcefield and bounces backwards.

XO_Marek says:
::Lands on the floor on his butt::

Host SM_Darlene says:
<Bailey> ::Looks at the others inside the cell:: CTO: The military grabbed us just at the edge of the city, Lieutenant.  What is going on here?

Guard_Thug says:
All: Now get changing. I have a schedule to keep and if that means one or two of you leaves here in a box...well, that don't bother me at all.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
Bailey: We all got grrrabbed, Bailey. We'rrre trrrying to fugurrre out how to escape.

Host SM_Darlene says:
<Bailey> ::Picks up one of the pink jumpsuits and holds it up, looking at it:: CTO: What are these?  Nice color.....

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
Bailey: We'rrre supposed to wearrr those.  Can you stand in the corrrrnerrr and block me while I change?

XO_Marek says:
All: Okay, folks, we better accept their conditions for now. ::Thinks: For the safety of the crew::  We should wait for a better time to get even with these clowns.

Host SM_Darlene says:
<Bailey> ::Begins taking off his Starfleet uniform and putting on the pink jumpsuit::  CTO: Sure after I finish putting this on.  ::Struggles into the jumpsuit but can't quite get the zipper to zip up::

CSO_Hayes says:
::Picks up a jumpsuit that seems way too big for her::

Host SM_Darlene says:
<Bailey> ::Sucks his stomach in and zips the zipper all the way up to his fat neck::  CTO: Okay, Lieutenant, you may proceed.  ::Blocks the view of Bao from the other crew::

Guard_Thug says:
All: There… isn't that better?  See we can all just get along.  And don't worry about your shoes, you'll get new work boots when you get to the mines, but for now, barefoot, all of you.

XO_Marek says:
::Grabs one of the pink uniforms:: All: Let's do it.  All male officers have the decency of turning your backs, please... you know what I mean.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Stands up:: Bailey: Thank you. ::Moves to the corner and begins to change::

Host SM_Darlene says:
<Bailey> ::Is finding it hard to breathe as the jumpsuit is very tight::

OPS_Spicer says:
::Changes into the prison uniform and peeks as the females do the same::

CSO_Hayes says:
::Undresses and puts on her new uniform.  Rolls up the sleeves and the bottom of the pants so that the uniform fits a bit more::

XO_Marek says:
::Starts putting on the uniform::

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: The senior staff has complied with the uniform requirements.

XO_Marek says:
::Zips up the uniform::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
:Sighs:: Self: This looks terrrrible.

XO_Marek says:
All: Avoid all "funny remarks", okay, people?

Guard_Thug says:
All: Okay, listen up.  We're going to the truck now.  Now don't even think about being heroes.  We have weapons, you don't.  We aren't afraid to zap you so line up!

Host SM_Darlene says:
<Bailey> ::Nods his big furry head at the XO then waits to see what happens next.  Hooks a paw into the neckline of his jumpsuit and pulls on it::

CSO_Hayes says:
::Nods at the XO::

XO_Marek says:
All : This leaves only the possibility to come up with a brilliant idea before we are taken out of here.

OPS_Spicer says:
::Looks at himself in the prison garb:: All: You know, I don't look half bad in this.  Of course, it is hard for me to look bad in anything. ::Smiles::

Guard_Thug says:
:: Steps back, ensues his guards are in position, and motions for the force field to come down::

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: The guards take up their positions and the forcefield is deactivated.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Flicks her ears back and growls::

Guard_Thug says:
All: Okay, nice and easy, move it!  Follow these guards into the courtyard and onto the truck.  Careful of those stones you'll be walking on, they're sharp and you, well, you don't have any shoes on.  ::Laughs::

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: The rest of the San Carlo crew are being led out of the cell block...all wearing the same hot pink jumpsuits and barefoot.

XO_Marek says:
::Whispers to the CTO:: CTO : You drove one of their vehicles, are they slow enough to attempt jumping out while in movement?

CNS_Alana says:
::Wonders what is the significance of the hot pink color of the jumpsuits::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Whispers:: XO: If it's not at top speed, surrre.

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: The San Carlo crew begins climbing into a truck like hovercraft vehicle outside the building under heavy guard and chained to each other.

Guard_Thug says:
Guard 23 & 24: Okay, start getting the chains on ‘em.

::Whispers to the CTO:: CTO: Pass the word, we are to attack the guards and jump out of the vehicles after we left the compound.

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: The guards begin chaining the senior staff to each other by their ankles.

Guard_Thug says:
<Guard 23> Thug: Aye, Sir. ::The guard pulls out some heavy chains and starts chaining the crew to their seats::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Whispers to the CNS:: CNS: Pass it on, we arrre to attack the guarrrds, jump out of the vehicles.

CSO_Hayes says:

Guard_Thug says:
All: Have a nice ride.  We'll try not to make it too bumpy. ::Laughs::

CNS_Alana says:
::Nods toward CTO::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Whines:: Guard: My chains arrre to tight.

XO_Marek says:
CTO: ::Whispers:: There s been a little... chain of plans... pass the voice again...

Guard_Thug says:
CTO: Oh, are they?  Here let me help you. ::Whacks the CTO with his pain giver stick, then laughs::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Yelps and falls onto the OPS's lap::

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: The signal is given to the driver and the truck hovers for a moment then begins moving forward, gaining altitude.

Guard_Thug says:
All: Now shut up and enjoy the ride!  ::Moves to the front of the truck and climbs into the comfortable cab::

XO_Marek says:
::Self:: What the.... ::Mumbles something not suitable for children::

CNS_Alana says:

Host SM_Darlene says:

CNS_Alana says:
Self: Must numb the ...pain.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Lets out a very low deep growl::

XO_Marek says:
::Hits his head against a piece of metal::

Host SM_Darlene says:
<Bailey> ::Looks at the others::

Guard_Thug says:
*All*: Oops, turbulence ::Laughs::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: The driver laughs out loud and rights the vehicle.

CNS_Alana says:
