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

Host TO_Bailey says:
::Standing at tactical station two in Operations, monitoring the weapons and shield systems::

Host CMO_Sovok says:
::Sits in Ops, still reeling from the recent attack, looking around, wondering how the same man that saved his life could turn so adamantly against him::

Host CO_Marek says:
CTO: Could you track them??

CEO_Masters says:
::Goes over the damage report, preparing to give to the CO::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Taps on her console:: CO: Worrrking, Sirrr.

Host CO_Marek says:
XO: Any survivors aboard the ship?

XO_Spicer says:
CO: Checking........ ::Scans the Bird of Prey::  There is one life sign aboard.

Host CO_Marek says:
Bailey/Lewis: Have the Seahawk ready to depart!

CEO_Masters says:
CO: Sir, here's the damage report.  Not as bad as expected.

Host CO_Marek says:
XO: Beam the survivor directly to the Brig... I don't care about its condition.

Host TO_Bailey says:
::Looks up at the CO:: CO: Aye, Sir!  ::Taps the console:: *Lewis*: Bailey to Lewis...report to the Seahawk and prepare for departure!

Host CO_Marek says:
CEO: Good. Have them repaired as soon as possible.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Slams her paws on her console:: CO: I can't trrrack them, Sirrr. ::Curses under her breath::

Host CMO_Sovok says:
::Stands up and looks around Ops::

CEO_Masters says:
CO: Aye, Sir.  Repairs should be done within the hour.

Host CO_Marek says:
CTO: Any news on the ships course?!

XO_Spicer says:
CO: Aye, Sir. ::Locks onto the survivor and activates the transporter to beam him to the brig:: *Security*: One prisoner beaming to the brig.

Host CO_Marek says:
CTO: Acknowledged.

Host TO_Bailey says:
<Lewis> *Bailey*: We're on our way!  Lewis, out!  ::Motions for the team to follow him to the docking bay and rushes out of the security office, tactical bag in hand::

Host CO_Marek says:
XO/CTO: You are with me. Let's make some questions.

Host CO_Marek says:
All: You have your orders. Carry on. ::Heads to the turbolift::

Host ASM_Gary says:
<Survivor>: ::Arrives in a brig of a Federation design and swears in Ferengi... now he was left alone, and most importantly, without his payment for working with those Klingons... he made a note to himself to stay in the much safer illegal weapons business from now on::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Follows the CO to the turbolift::

XO_Spicer says:
::Follows the CO to the turbolift::

Host TO_Bailey says:
::Turns tactical station two over to a relief officer and lumbers quickly to the turbolift::

Host CO_Marek says:
::Orders the turbolift to the Brig::

Host TO_Bailey says:
::Growls:: TL: Computer, docking bay one!

Host CO_Marek says:
XO/CTO: It is imperative to find out those pirates.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
CO: Captain they have some sorrrt of a trrracking jammerrr.

Host ASM_Gary says:
<Survivor> ::Paces the brig, trying to figure out how to financially bounce back from his current deficit::

CEO_Masters says:
::After the CO, XO and CTO's turbolift car clears, heads to the next turbolift:: Computer: Engineering.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
CO: We'll just have to get ourrr inforrrmation out of ourrr prrrisonerrr.

Host CO_Marek says:
CTO: Any suggestions on how to avoid it?

Host CO_Marek says:
::Exits the turbolift and rushes to the Brig::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Trots after the CO::

XO_Spicer says:
CO: Sir, the prisoner is a Ferengi. Perhaps we can get information from him by proposing an offer he can't refuse.

Host CO_Marek says:
XO: I like that idea.. ::Raises an eyebrow:: Either he talks or... ::Raises an eyebrow again sarcastically::

Host Kolom says:
::Looks over at the doors as they open and hisses::

Host TO_Bailey says:
::Exits the turbolift and jogs to the gangway leading to the Seahawk.  Passes Commander Hiromoto on his way into the ship and nods quickly, not missing a step::

Host CO_Marek says:
::Enters the Brig, nods to the security officer and heads to the cell where the Ferengi is being kept::

CEO_Masters says:
::Arrives in Main Engineering:: Engineers: We have an hour to get the repairs complete!  Let's move, people!

XO_Spicer says:
::Stands beside the CO looking over the prisoner::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Stands on the other side of the CO, lightly resting one paw on her belly::

Host Kolom says:
CO: What do you want Hew-mon?

Host TO_Bailey says:
#::Enters the turbolift:: TL: Computer, Bridge!  ::Runs his paws over the top of his big furry head::

Host CO_Marek says:
Kolom: Very well, it seems your friends let you behind. ::Directly:: I think you should cooperate with us.

Host Kolom says:
CO: They were not my friends... and I will cooperate with anyone for the right.... price.

Host CO_Marek says:
Kolom: So I will make this clear... Where is Jor'hjh???

CEO_Masters says:
::Watches the engineers scurry about repairing all systems::

Host CO_Marek says:
Kolom: The price... The price is your skin, little man? What do you think of that?? ::Glances at the XO/CTO::

Host Kolom says:
::Hisses:: CO: Hew-mon, you cannot possibly understand how much profit I have lost dealing with these treacherous Klingons!

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
Kolom: We could not kill you.

Host Kolom says:
CTO: I doubt very much your Captain would let that happen...

Host CO_Marek says:
Kolom: Again, I don't care what kind of business relations you had with those renegades... I will ask you just more time... Where are they heading now???? ::Threatening look in his face::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
Kolom: I think he can deal with yourrr loss.

Host TO_Bailey says:
#::Exits the turbolift onto the Bridge of the Seahawk.  Heads straight to the tactical station and begins preparations for launch::

Host Kolom says:
CO: Until I am reimbursed for my lossess I will tell you nothing! ::Sits down on the bench:: I know my rights... Captain.

XO_Spicer says:
Kolom: Well, the Captain may have to follow Starfleet rules, but I don't. Yesterday was my last day as a Starfleet Officer. I can kill you without even thinking twice.

Host CO_Marek says:
Kolom: I am beginning to lose my patience...  XO: Let's show him that we are serious... ::Winks an eye::

Host Kolom says:
::Looks confused:: XO: You are using Hew-man tricks on me... Why would you still be wearing that uniform?? ::Backs into the corner, semi-worried::

Host CO_Marek says:
Security Officer: Remove the force field.

Host Kolom says:
::Hisses and makes futile attempts to climb the wall::

Host TO_Bailey says:
#::Pauses a brief moment to glance around the Bridge of the Seahawk, not seeing the officers that are already at their stations preparing to depart.  Realizes how much he misses being on an Intrepid class starship::

Host CO_Marek says:
::Enters the cell walking firmly towards the Ferengi:: Kolom: Now, will you talk or not?

CEO_Masters says:
::Gets a report that repairs are nearly complete::

XO_Spicer says:
Kolom: I don't have any other clothes. I was planning on purchasing them later today. ::Grins evilly and steps towards the prisoner::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Readies her phaser and sets it on stun::

Host Kolom says:
XO: All I ask for is a few bars of latinum!! ::Trips and falls on his face, looking up at the officers::

Host CO_Marek says:
CTO: Your prisoner... ::Moves aside::

Host CO_Marek says:
::Signals the XO and the CTO to follow his game::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Aims the phaser:: Kolom: You tell the Captain what he wants to know orrr you won't be seeing the Divine Trrreasury anytime soon.

Host CO_Marek says:
Kolom: Latinum? You will be lucky to leave this Station alive!

XO_Spicer says:
::Puts his foot on the prisoner holding him to the floor and stares down at him:: Kolom: Where did they go? ::Raises his hand in a fist::

Host Kolom says:
::Puts his hands above his head:: CO: Okay, okay!! They've got a place... it's in an asteroid field... about five light-years from here!!

CEO_Masters says:
*CO*: Masters to Capt. Marek.

Host CO_Marek says:
Kolom: Elaborate on that answer.  ::Raises an eyebrow::

Host CO_Marek says:
*CEO*: go ahead

Host Kolom says:
::Gets up on his knees:: CO: I believe that now that I've shown I'm willing to cooperate I should be rewarded.

CEO_Masters says:
*CO*: Station repairs will be complete within 10 minutes.  We just have some minor stuff to go.

XO_Spicer says:
Kolom: You would be lucky if you are sentenced to a long life on a prison colony instead of the death penalty.

Host CO_Marek says:
*CEO*: Excellent. Finish the repairs and board the Seahawk. ::Looks at Kolom:: We will depart in 15 minutes.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
Kolom: Yeah. you can rrrot in yourrr cell until we get a trrransporrrt forrr you. To a prrrison colony ::Smirks::

Host TO_Bailey says:
#*Ship-wide*: All stations report in!

CEO_Masters says:
*CO*: I'm on my way there now to initialize the engines.  My staff can finish here.

Host Kolom says:
All: I am a humble businessman!!! I was conned into working with them, and now I have nothing!!! All I ask for is some latinum and I will tell you all you need to know!

XO_Spicer says:
Kolom: The Federation may not believe in the death penalty, but I am sure that there are some Klingons that would be more than happy to have a go at you.

Host CO_Marek says:
Kolom: No latinum. All I can promise is a fair audience in a Federation Tribunal.

Host TO_Bailey says:
#::Taps the console scrolling the display screen as all stations aboard the Seahawk report in, ready for launch::

Host Kolom says:
::Sighs:: CO: The coordinates are in the Bird of Prey's computer... they are not encoded or encrypted... You will find where they are heading...

Host CO_Marek says:
XO: Check that.

XO_Spicer says:
CO: Aye, Sir. ::Heads to Ops::

CEO_Masters says:
::Exits engineering and heads to a turbolift:: Computer: Docking bay 1.

XO_Spicer says:
::Taps his COM badge:: *OPS*: Interface with the Bird of Prey's computer and download it's contents. I am on my way to Ops.

XO_Spicer says:
<Ops> *XO*: Aye, Sir.

Host CO_Marek says:
Kolom: I hope for your own safety ::Raises an eyebrow:: that you are not lying to us... Remember, strange accident happens in Federation's Brigs. ::Looks at CTO::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Smirks and holsters her phaser:: CO: Yes. Strrrange things.

Host Kolom says:
CO: I would have nothing to gain from lying to! ::Sits in the corner and pouts, trying to think of another way to get his money back::

Host TO_Bailey says:
#::Sees the last station report in and all stations are ready for launch.  Taps his console opening a COM to the Station:: *Kootenai Ops*: Kootenai Operations, this is Lieutenant Bailey aboard the USS Seahawk, requesting departure clearance.

Host CO_Marek says:
CTO: Let's get out of here... ::Gives a disdain luck to the Ferengi::

CEO_Masters says:
::Exits turbolift and walks across gangway to the Seahawk::

Host SM_Darlene says:
<Kootenai Operations> *Seahawk*: Seahawk, you are clear for departure.

Host CO_Marek says:
Security Officer: Raise force field and keep an eye on this ... this... scum.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
CO: Yes, Sirrr.

Host CO_Marek says:
::Walks to the turbolift::

Host TO_Bailey says:
#::Taps his console:: *CO*: Bailey to Captain Marek.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Follows after the CO::

Host CO_Marek says:
*TO*: Go ahead, Bailey.  TL: Main Operations.

XO_Spicer says:
::Arrives in Ops:: OPS: What is the status?

CEO_Masters says:
#::Enters Seahawk:: *TO*: Masters to Bailey, I'm aboard ship now, heading to engineering to begin main engine start-up.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::In the turbolift with the CO::

XO_Spicer says:
<OPS> XO: We have the coordinates.

Host TO_Bailey says:
#*CO*: The Seahawk is ready for departure and we have clearance to launch when ready.

Host TO_Bailey says:
#*CEO*: Acknowledged.

CEO_Masters says:
#::Enters a turbolift:: Computer: Main engineering.

XO_Spicer says:
OPS: Good. Transfer the data to the Seahawk. *CEO*: I am transferring the coordinates of the destination of those Birds of Prey to your computer.

Host CO_Marek says:
*TO*: Perfect. We are on our way. Just some minor things we need to attend here. Marek out.

Host CO_Marek says:
CTO: What do you think? Is Kolom reliable?

XO_Spicer says:
*CO*:, Sir, we have the coordinates and are transferring them to the Seahawk.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
CO: About as rrreliable as a Ferrrengi is when you thrrreaten his life.

CEO_Masters says:
#*XO*: Aye, Sir.  Engines will be ready in one minute. ::Said as he enters ME::

Host CO_Marek says:
::Arrives to OPS:: XO: No need to use the COM, Number one. I am here. So, that's it. Let's board the ship and find those pirates.

Host TO_Bailey says:
#::Runs a last minute diagnostic on the weapons systems and checks the torpedo inventory::

XO_Spicer says:
CO: Aye, Sir, the Seahawk is ready.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Walks into main ops:: *TO*: Bailey is everrrything rrready on the Seahawk?

Host CMO_Sovok says:
::Waits in Ops, looking up at Bao walks in::

Host TO_Bailey says:
#::Wonders how many times he needs to repeat himself:: *CTO*: Yes, Commander.

Host CO_Marek says:
::Grabs a PADD, taps the station command transfer report, nods to the relief officer, and heads back to the turbolift::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
*TO*: Is the securrrity team on boarrrd? ::Looks over at Sovok and gives him a tired smile::

CEO_Masters says:
#::Watches as the engines warm up and be ready::

Host TO_Bailey says:
#*CTO*: Affirmative, Commander.  Everything and everyone is ready, except the majority of the senior staff who have not yet reported aboard.

Host CMO_Sovok says:
::Smiles back:: CTO: We better make our way to the Seahawk.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
*TO*: Okay, I'm on my way. CMO: Want to sharrre a turrrbolift?

CEO_Masters says:
#*CO*: Captain, the engines are purring.  Just waiting for the rest of you to get aboard so we can shove off.

XO_Spicer says:
::Follows the CO::

Host CMO_Sovok says:
CTO: I'd love to.

Host CO_Marek says:
*CEO*: Will be there in a minute.

Host ASM_Gary says:
ACTION: Ten minutes later, all senior staff are aboard and the Seahawk is just leaving her binds at the station

Host CO_Marek says:
XO: Set a course to the asteroid indicated by our friend Kolom

XO_Spicer says:
CO: Aye, Sir. ::Touches his controls:: Course laid in. Ready when you are.

Host CO_Marek says:
CTO: Maintain Yellow Alert. All battle stations at full readiness.

Host CMO_Sovok says:
::Sits on the bridge, not willing to stay in sickbay for this::

Host TO_Bailey says:
::Standing at the Master Situation Display, looking over the entire ship's status::

Host CO_Marek says:
CMO: Did you brush up in our mutual friend Jor'hjh files?

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
CO: Yes, Sirrr. ::Taps on her console::

CEO_Masters says:
::After making sure the engineers are set up, exits ME and heads to the bridge:: TL: Bridge.

Host CO_Marek says:
XO: Engage, warp two.

Host CMO_Sovok says:
CO: Yes, Sir, I learned as much as I can... and my past turned out to be the best source of information.. what would you like to know, Sir?

XO_Spicer says:
CO: Aye, Sir. ::Engages the engines::

CEO_Masters says:
::Exits turbolift and heads to engineering console::

XO_Spicer says:
::Sighs and stands up from the helm console and looks at Bailey:: TO: Bailey, you have the helm.

Host CO_Marek says:
CMO: I was wondering, besides the obvious reasons, is there anything else that interests Jor'hjh that much that he dared to attack our Station?

Host ASM_Gary says:
ACTION: The Seahawk jumps to warp

Host CMO_Sovok says:
CO: No... all I can figure is that he doesn't want to be brought to Justice, Sir.

Host TO_Bailey says:
XO: Aye, Sir.  ::Descends the steps and heads to the helm.  Sits down in the chair as soon as the XO stands::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Feels a kick and looks down::

Host CO_Marek says:
CMO: A good reason. Very well.

Host TO_Bailey says:
::Looks over the console, checking course, speed, engine status and sensor readings::

CEO_Masters says:
::Feels the CTO wince:: CTO: Baby kick?

Host CO_Marek says:
TO: Bailey, I sincerely hope you watched your diet during the last hour... We don't want any chemical elements on the loose, right?

Host TO_Bailey says:
::Furrows his brow and tries to keep from growling at the CO:: CO: Aye, Sir.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Perks her ears and looks up at him:: CEO: How did you?

CEO_Masters says:
CTO: I'm part Betazoid.  It's the empathic part of me.

Host CO_Marek says:
CTO: Initiate constant passive long-range sensor scans. I don't want to be taken by surprise.

Host CO_Marek says:
TO: When we are at 1/4 parsec from the asteroid, reduce speed to full impulse.

Host TO_Bailey says:
::Checks the navigational display, looking for ships in their path::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
CO: Yes, Sirrr. CEO: Oh, I didn't know.

Host TO_Bailey says:
CO: Aye, Sir, full impulse.

CEO_Masters says:
CTO: Now you do.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Rolls her eyes:: Self: Klingons.

Host CO_Marek says:
XO: You have the Bridge. I will be in my Ready Room.  Doctor, please, can we have a word? ::Stands up from his chair and walks to the RR::

Host CMO_Sovok says:
::Stands and looks around the bridge, following the Captain:: CO: Yes, Sir?

CEO_Masters says:
CTO: I'm also part human, too.

XO_Spicer says:
CO: Aye, Sir. ::Takes THE chair::

Host CO_Marek says:
::Enters the Ready Room, takes a seat behind the desk, and links the desktop console with Tactical on the Bridge:: Self:: Just to be informed.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Raises an eyebrow::

Host TO_Bailey says:
::Glances over his shoulder as the XO sits down in the command chair.  Thinks: What's the big deal?  My chair is in FRONT of that one!::

Host CMO_Sovok says:
::Sits down across the table from him::

Host CO_Marek says:
::Notices the sparse decoration of the Ready Room.  After all Mitchell is a orthodox Vulcan like him::

Host CO_Marek says:
CMO:: Doctor, I know this should be a difficult situation for you, I am sure about that.

Host CMO_Sovok says:
::Nods::

Host CO_Marek says:
CMO: The point is that I should ask you that you bear in mind, that you must do your best to keep your personal considerations apart from now.

Host CMO_Sovok says:
CO: Yes, Sir, I understand this. And believe me, I am.

Host CO_Marek says:
CMO: I don't want to be rude or impertinent, but you sure understand that I am forced to ask you this. You are a competent officer and I have total confidence on you.

Host CMO_Sovok says:
CO: Thank you, Sir.

Host CO_Marek says:
CMO: That was it, Doctor. ::Raises an eyebrow:: You are dismissed.

Host CMO_Sovok says:
::Nods in a very Vulcan way and stands up, walking out of the Ready Room::
