Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Leaving her quarters on the San Carlo headed for the Bridge.  Nods to a few passing crewmembers as she makes her way to the turbolift::

Host CO_Marek says:
XO: ETA to rendezvous coordinates?

XO_Spicer says:
CO: Ten minutes, Sir.

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Taps the control panel to call the turbolift::

Host CO_Marek says:
XO: Very well. ::Taps on his console:: I hope this goes well.

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Enters the turbolift and spins around to face the doors:: turbolift: Bridge!  ::Stands stiffly::

Host CO_Marek says:
::Taps and opens a ship wide COM:: ALL: This is Captain Marek.  All senior staff report to the Bridge.

CNS_Torez says:
::Standing on Bridge near CO::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
CO: Captain I am detecting the Sigmakap ship, Sirrr.

Host CO_Marek says:
CTO: Acknowledged. Hail them and inform our current position.

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Watches as the turbolift doors slide open with a "whoosh" then steps out and walks to the Bridge::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
CO: Yes, Sirrr. ::Does as instructed::

CNS_Torez says:
::Wonders what the Sigma Kappas are like::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Looks up at the Admiral::

Host CO_Marek says:
::Stands as the Admiral enters the Bridge::

XO_Spicer says:
::Stands:: ALL: Admiral on the Bridge!

Host CO_Marek says:
::Nods:: Admiral: Admiral Mitchell…

CNS_Torez says:
::Stands at attention as Admiral comes onto the Bridge::

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Walks directly to the Captain's chair and motions to everyone not to make a big deal out of her arrival::  CO: Captain, what is our ETA to the rendezvous?

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Salutes, keeping a paw on her belly::

XO_Spicer says:
ALL: As you were.

Host CO_Marek says:
Admiral: We are at ten minutes of the rendezvous coordinates. The Sigma Kappa ship has been already contacted.

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Clasps her hands behind her back::

Host CO_Marek says:
CTO: Open a channel.

CNS_Torez says:
::Smiles as Admiral passes her and relaxes her stance::

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Nods:: CO: Very well.  ::Stands stiffly::

Host Amb_K`Ytel says:
@COM: San Carlo: This is Ambassador K'Ytel, ambassador of Sigma Kappa III.

CNS_Torez says:
::Tries to read the person she sees on the view screen::

XO_Spicer says:
::Notices the admiral's formal demeanor and wonders what's up::

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

Host CO_Marek says:
COM: K'Ytel: This is Captain Marek from USS San Carlo. Glad to hear from you, Ambassador.

Host Amb_K`Ytel says:
ACTION: The viewscreen lights with the Sigmakap ambassador, with grayish skin, elongated skull with deep blue eyes and a long ridge from the tip of his nose to the top of his head.

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Looks at the viewscreen and studies the gray skinned alien::

Host Amb_K`Ytel says:
COM: San Carlo: CO: We are heading to your position at warp factor two, our ship's maximum.  We should be there within... ::Pauses:: 75 of your seconds.  It's tough to do time conversions.

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Waits for the response from the alien and thinks: He could really use a nose job::

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Glances at Captain Marek then returns her gaze to the viewscreen::

Host CO_Marek says:
COM: ::Nods to the Ambassador in the screen in a very Vulcan way:: Very well, Ambassador. We will be honored to received aboard our ship.

Host Amb_K`Ytel says:
COM: San Carlo: Admiral Mitchell: I could say the same for your ears, Admiral.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Leans back in her chair at her console::

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Raises an eyebrow:: COM: Ambassador K'Ytel: Forgive me, Ambassador.  I was unaware your species was telepathic.  ::Nods::

Host CO_Marek says:
::Gazes nervously at the Admiral::

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Turns to fix her gaze on the CO and raises an eyebrow::

Host CO_Marek says:
COM: Ambassador: Please, let's continue our conversation aboard the San Carlo. ::Tries to cool down the tense situation::

CNS_Torez says:
::Snaps back when she realizes that they can read minds.  Wonders if she thought anything about them they might find disagreeable::

Host CO_Marek says:
::Thinks: Way to go Admiral!::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Looks from the Ambassador to the Admiral::

Host Amb_K`Ytel says:
@COM: San Carlo: Admiral: My apologies as well, Admiral.  I guess I shouldn't have overheard your thoughts.  We're at the rendezvous now.  I'll head to my trans-materialization device.  I'll be ready to come over on my next signal.  Sigmakap II out.

Host CO_Marek says:
COM: Ambassador: Acknowledged.

Host Amb_K`Ytel says:
ACTION: The screen goes back to a forward visual.

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Nods then turns her attention to the CO:: CO: Shall we, Captain.  ::Motions towards the turbolift::

XO_Spicer says:
CO: I recommend a formal reception team with security.

Host CO_Marek says:
All: Well, I think it is time for exercise our diplomatic skills.

Host CO_Marek says:
XO: Of course, Commander, all senior staff is to receive the Ambassador in the transporter room and watch your thoughts.

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

CNS_Torez says:
CO:  I think it would be best we all try to keep our thought to ourselves.  The Sigma Kappas are very sensitive.

XO_Spicer says:
::Grins:: CO: Of course, Sir.

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Leans over and whispers to the CO:: CO: I want full scans of the alien as he is beamed aboard....just a precaution, Captain.

Host CO_Marek says:
::Follows the Admiral to the turbolift:: CTO: Have the honor guard to meet us in the transporter room.

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Taps the control panel and waits for the turbolift to open::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
CO: Yes, Sirrr. ::Taps on her console, sending the message out::

Host CO_Marek says:
::Raises an eyebrow:: Admiral: Very well, Admiral, we will do it discretely.

CNS_Torez says:
::Follows the CO and Admiral to turbolift::

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

XO_Spicer says:
::Follows the CO::

Host CO_Marek says:
XO: You will perform the scans over the alien and their ships as well, Commander.

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Turns to the CNS:: CNS: I want you to try and get a "read" on the Ambassador as soon as he is aboard, Counselor.

Host CO_Marek says:
CNS: Don't hesitate to inform us if you perceive something... disturbing about this aliens, Commander

XO_Spicer says:
CO: Aye, Sir. ::Adjusts his tricorder for bio and weapons scans::

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Enters the turbolift and steps aside to allow the others to enter::

CNS_Torez says:
Admiral:  Done, Sir's!

XO_Spicer says:
::Enters the Turbolift::

Host CO_Marek says:
All: Is it me or do they make these turbolifts smaller every year?

XO_Spicer says:
::Grins:: CO: Well, Bao is taking space for two now.

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
CO: Agreed, Captain.  Either that or we are all getting....bigger.  ::Unconsciously sucks in her gut::

Host Amb_K`Ytel says:
@<SKIIOPS> COM: San Carlo: Sigmakap II to San Carlo, the Ambassador is ready for trans-materialization.

Host CO_Marek says:
::Nods to all remarks::

CNS_Torez says:
Admiral/CO:  I would suggest keeping our thought as simple as possible, perhaps only about the job at hand, staying emotionless about them,  I already sense that they are very sensitive.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
CO: Sorrrrry, Captain, Admirrral.

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
ACTION: The turbolift arrives to the transporter room and the doors open::

XO_Spicer says:
::Quickly steps off and is relieved to be out of the confined space::

Host CO_Marek says:
CNS: We will proceed as you suggest, Commander.  Keep your mind focused only on the important aspect of this meeting.

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
CNS: Agreed, Counselor.  ::Follows the officers out of the turbolift::

CNS_Torez says:
::Leaves the turbolift::

Host CO_Marek says:
::Exits the turbolift after the Admiral and heads to the Transporter Room::

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Tugs on her uniform as she takes her place in front of the transporter pad::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Follows the CO, nodding to her TO's to follow them into the Transporter Room::

CNS_Torez says:
::Enters the transporter room and takes a stand to the side:

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Clasps her hands behind her back and stands stiffly as the crew assembles::

Host Amb_K`Ytel says:
@::Taps his webbed foot on the trans-materialization pad::

XO_Spicer says:
::Enters the Transporter Room and sets the transporter to scan for bio and weapon signatures during the transport process::

Host CO_Marek says:
::Enters the Transporter Room and waits for the Ambassador to materialize:: Transporter Officer: When you are ready, Ensign.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Lightly rests a paw on her phaser holster::

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
<Transporter Ensign> CO: Energizing, Sir.

Host Amb_K`Ytel says:
ACTION: All the lights in the transporter room dim and flicker, going out for a short time.

XO_Spicer says:
::Begins his scans with the tricorder focusing on the transporter pad::

Host CO_Marek says:
::Sees the Ambassador materializing, and he can't avoid thinking that Mitchell was right about the nose job::

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Looks up instinctively as the lights dim::

Host CO_Marek says:
Transporter Officer: What's going on??

XO_Spicer says:
::Looks at the trans officer::

Host Amb_K`Ytel says:
ACTION: Materializing on the pad is a strange form.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Perks her ears and looks around warily::

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
<Transporter Ensign> ::Tapping furiously at the console:: CO: I'm not sure, Sir.

CNS_Torez says:
::Turns toward CO and nods:: CO: Careful Sir.

Host CO_Marek says:
CNS: Counselor?

XO_Spicer says:
::Scans the form::

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
<Transporter Ensign> ::Shouts:: All: I'm loosing him!  Narrowing the confinement beam!

Host CO_Marek says:
Transporter Ensign: Change the frequency!  Stabilize his signal!!!!!

CNS_Torez says:
CO: Your thoughts, Sir.

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
<Transporter Ensign> All: Got him!

Host CO_Marek says:
XO: What in the Universe is that?

Host Eric_VanSickle says:
ACTION: A form materializes and it's not the Ambassador.  Instead, they have a human in 21st century clothing and a camera poised to his face.  A flash emits!

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Is blinded by the sudden flash::

CNS_Torez says:
::Gasps as flash goes off::

Host Eric_VanSickle says:
Self: What the?  This isn't the West Hancock High School football field!

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Blinks and bares her teeth in a silent growl::

XO_Spicer says:
::Instinctively covers his eyes from the flash::

Host CO_Marek says:
All: What in the Universe happened here?  ::Approaches the transporter pad::

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Clears her vision then looks at the person on the transporter pad and does a double take::

Host Eric_VanSickle says:
All: Who are you?  Where am I?  Am I being abducted by aliens?

CNS_Torez says:
::Repeats the words:: All: Football field?

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Grins:: Self: Who wants to do the anal probe then?

Host CO_Marek says:
XO: Contact the Ambassador’s ship on the double and inform them about the situation!

XO_Spicer says:
CO: Aye, Sir. ::Hands the tricorder and its readings to the CTO and heads for the Bridge::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Looks down at the tricorder:: XO: Huh?

Host CO_Marek says:
Human on the pad: Easy, we are not going to hurt you.

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Steps forward slowly:: Alien: Who are you?

Host Eric_VanSickle says:
Admiral: ::Holds out hand:: I'm Eric VanSickle, sportswriter for the Britt News-Tribune and Forest City Summit.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Growls and pulls out her phaser::

Host CO_Marek says:
All: The Britt News Tribune?

Host Eric_VanSickle says:
::Sees the CTO pull a weapon and instantly puts up his hands:: CTO: Don't shoot!

XO_Spicer says:
::Enters the turbolift:: Turbolift: Bridge

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Looks suspiciously at VanSickle:: VanSickle: You bare a striking resemblance to Captain VanSickle of the USS Scorpious.  ::Motions for the security guards to surround him:: CTO: Take him to the Brig!

Host CO_Marek says:
CO: Admiral?

Host Eric_VanSickle says:
Admiral: Brig?

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Looks over the stat on the tricorder while still holding phaser:: Admiral: Yes, Ma'am. ::Motions with her phaser:: Eric: Come on, move.

Host Eric_VanSickle says:
All: I want my attorney!

Host CO_Marek says:
Admiral: Is there something I should know, Admiral?

XO_Spicer says:
::Steps out onto the Bridge and stands in front of the viewscreen:: OPS: Contact the Sigma Kap ship.

CNS_Torez says:
Admiral: Isn't he a guest on this ship until proven otherwise, Sir?

XO_Spicer says:
<OPS> XO: Aye. ::Establishes contact::

Host CO_Marek says:
::Gives a suspicious look at the Admiral::

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
CO: This man looks exactly like Captain VanSickle of the USS Scorpius.  He is obviously an imposter and we must investigate.

Host Eric_VanSickle says:
<SKII_OPS> @COM: San Carlo: Did you receive the Ambassador?

CNS_Torez says:
::Nods as CO and Admiral work things out, hoping that her suggestion will be considered::

Host CO_Marek says:
::Shakes his head and mumbles:: It had to be ...

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
*XO*: I want the current status of the USS Scorpius and it's Captain.

XO_Spicer says:
COM: Sigmakap: This is Commander Spicer.  We are still waiting for the Ambassador. ::Thinks of the Stay Puffed Marshmallow man to mask his thoughts::

Host CO_Marek says:
Admiral: We better think of a creative idea to avoid a real bad first contact procedure with the Sigma Kappas.

XO_Spicer says:
*Admiral*: Acknowledged, Admiral.

XO_Spicer says:
OPS: Get me info on the Scorpius and it's captain.

Host CO_Marek says:
Transporter Officer: Check the transporter log.  Find out if someone messed around with it.

XO_Spicer says:
<OPS> XO: Aye, Sir.

Host Eric_VanSickle says:
<SKII_OPS> @COM: XO: That's strange, we detected the ambassador Tran materialized off this ship five minutes ago.  It only takes three minutes to complete trans-materializations using our technology.

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Looks at the CO:: CO: We must verify the identity of this man.  He could be used in some kind of terrorist plot to take over Starfleet Command.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Keeps phaser pointed at the stranger::

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Nods to the CTO to take the prisoner to the Brig immediately::

Host Eric_VanSickle says:
CTO: Who in the hell are you guys talking about?

XO_Spicer says:
COM: SKII_OPS: Hmmmm..... strange. We will try to find out what happened on our side. I suggest you do the same on yours. Together we will come to the truth.

Host CO_Marek says:
Admiral : With all due respect, Admiral, I think you are making some rash conclusions here.

XO_Spicer says:
COM: SKII_OPS: San Carlo out.

XO_Spicer says:
::Motions for the OPS to close the com::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Pokes the stranger with her phaser:: Eric: I said, move! ::Growls under her breath::

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Snaps a "look" at the CO:: CO: I know what I am doing, Captain, believe me.

XO_Spicer says:
<OPS> ::Closes the com:: XO: Sir, here is the info you requested.

Host CO_Marek says:
*XO*: Any news from the Sigma Kappa ship?

Host Eric_VanSickle says:
CTO: Whoa!  Nice kitty!  ::Moves as ordered::

Host CO_Marek says:
Admiral: I didn't mean any disrespect, Admiral. I am just trying to find any logical explanation for what has happened. ::Nods to the Admiral::

XO_Spicer says:
::Looks at the console:: *Admiral*: Admiral, the USS Scorpius is currently stationed at Starbase 64 and its Captain is away on his honeymoon.

CNS_Torez says:
::Walks toward the prisoner::

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Watches as the CTO and her security officers escort the imposter to the brig then follows behind them out of the transporter room and taps her COM badge::  *XO*: Thank you, Commander.  ::Walks behind the security guards::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Walks him down the hallway, twitching her tail::

Host CO_Marek says:
Admiral: I think we should proceed to the Bridge now.

Host Eric_VanSickle says:
::Looks at the CNS:: CNS: I'm a member of the press!  You can't do this to me!

CNS_Torez says:
CO:  I will go with the prisoner to the brig and see if I can find out anything.

XO_Spicer says:
*CO*: Did you copy that info Sir?

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
CO: Agreed, Captain.  We have work to do.

Host CO_Marek says:
Admiral: I was wondering… could it just be a simple malfunction from the transporter that created some sort of ... power loop?  ::Heads to the turbolift::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Opens a cell in the Brig:: Eric: Yourrr suite. ::Motions him in::

XO_Spicer says:
OPS: Run a diagnostic on all transporter systems and find the Ambassador.

Host Eric_VanSickle says:
CTO: I'm not going in there.  Where's the manager of this hotel?

XO_Spicer says:
<OPS> XO: Aye, Sir. ::Begins diagnostics::

Host CO_Marek says:
*XO*: Acknowledged, Commander I'm on my way to the Bridge

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
Eric: That would be me.

CNS_Torez says:
Eric:  It will be alright, you just need to come to our detention center for a while.

Host CO_Marek says:
::Enters the turbolift::

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Walks briskly into the turbolift while talking to the CO:: CO: I am uncertain of what caused this malfunction or if it was indeed a malfunction but we will need to get to the bottom of this before proceeding with the diplomatic mission.  I suggest you send a communication to the Sigma Kappas and give them an excuse for the delay.

Host Eric_VanSickle says:
CNS: Detention center?  On what charge?

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Sighs and rolls her eyes::

CNS_Torez says:
Eric: there is nothing to worry about.  CTO:  Have you scanned for weapons on this man?

Host CO_Marek says:
CO: Very well, I will invent some lousy techno-babble to explain this delay...

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
CNS: Yes, Ma'am. He has none.

XO_Spicer says:
::Stands beside the OPS officer watching the diagnostics::

Host Eric_VanSickle says:
CTO: Look, kitty, it may not matter to you, but I'm an American, due process and everything.  Innocent until proven guilty!

Host CO_Marek says:
::Tries to think of some bright ideas::

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Exits the turbolift onto the Bridge and heads for the Captain's Ready Room::

CNS_Torez says:
CTO: Very well, let me in the cell with him.

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Enters the Ready Room:: CO: Captain.....

XO_Spicer says:
::Sees the Admiral and CO enter the Bridge:: CO/Admiral: Sirs.

Host CO_Marek says:
::Enters the Bridge after the Admiral and heads to the RR::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Opens the cell:: CNS: Be my guest....but watch out forrr that flashy....thingy...::Waves her paw in the air::

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
XO: Commander....please join us.

Host Eric_VanSickle says:
CTO: It's called a digital camera.

XO_Spicer says:
Admiral: Aye, Sir. ::Follows the Admiral::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
Eric: Yeah, yeah, whateverrrr.

Host CO_Marek says:
::Enters the Ready Room and activates his desk console::

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Sits down in one of the chairs in front of the Captain's desk::

Host Eric_VanSickle says:
::Puts the camera up to his face and takes a picture of the CTO, the flash pops::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Growls and steps forward, her claws extending:: Eric: Stop that!

CNS_Torez says:
Eric:  I am Alana Torez, the Counselor aboard this ship, what were you doing before you found yourself here?

Host Eric_VanSickle says:
CTO: Geesh!  I guess you're like my old cat.  He never liked video cameras when I was in college.

Host CO_Marek says:
Admiral: I will contact the Sigma Kappa ship now.

XO_Spicer says:
Admiral/CO: I have the OPS officer running a diagnostic on the transporter systems. So far he has determined that the transporter has somehow transported this Mister VanSickle from Britt Iowa, United States from the date of September10, 2004.

CNS_Torez says:
Eric: Please behave and you will not get hurt!

XO_Spicer says:
CO: Sir, I have already contacted the ship. I told them that we have not received the Ambassador.

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Raises an eyebrow at the XO’s comments::

Host CO_Marek says:
::Hits the desk with his fist:: Admiral/XO: I knew it! That human, Murphy, was totally right!

XO_Spicer says:
CO: I advised them to run diagnostics and try to determine what happened from their end and we will do the same on our side.

Host Eric_VanSickle says:
CNS: Ms. Torez, ::Presses his digital recorder for personal record:: I was covering a football game between West Hancock and Clarksville.  The Eagles just scored a touchdown on a great pass play.  I was taking the picture, and then I wound up here.

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Leans on the edge of the desk and is startled by the CO's pounding fist:: CO: As I stated, this....person is obviously an imposter of Captain VanSickle of the USS Scorpius.  We will need to complete a full bio scan, DNA comparisons, etc.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Uses her tricorder to scan him while he talks, reading the data on his strange flashy device::

CNS_Torez says:
Eric: Okay, then I guess you can just turn that recorder off, you will get no interviews here we are not the Eagles!

Host Eric_VanSickle says:
CNS: What recorder?

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Looks over at the CNS and taps on her tricorder, erasing his tape::

Host CO_Marek says:
Admiral: Although I would like to agree with you, Admiral, I think that this is just a big foul up. I don't think this is a conspiracy, yet, Admiral. However, I will follow your orders.

CNS_Torez says:
Eric: the recorder button you just had the thought to push and then did, that's what recorder!

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Looks at the XO then returns her focus to the CO:: CO: If it is proven that he is not who he says he is, then I will agree by the way he was dressed that he is out of his timeline.  In which case we will need to find a way to send him back.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Looks over at the CNS and taps on her tricorder, erasing his data::

Host CO_Marek says:
Admiral: I see.

Host CO_Marek says:
Admiral/XO: We will need to be able to recreate the condition that caused all this mess in the first place.

Host Eric_VanSickle says:
::Grabs the small recorder from his camera bag:: CNS: Oh, my digital... ::Sees the screen's blank:: CTO: What in heck did you do to this?  It's ruined!

Host CO_Marek says:
::Raises an eyebrow at his obvious remark::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Looks innocent:: Eric: What? ::Winks at the CNS::

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
CO/XO: I served with Captain VanSickle on the USS Quirinus, the USS Comanche and the USS Elara.  I know what I am talking about.

XO_Spicer says:
CO: Agreed. We will know more when the OPS officer has finished his diagnostics and evaluation.

CNS_Torez says:
Eric: Okay, now all the machines aside, can we get down to business?  ::Smiles back at CTO::

Host Eric_VanSickle says:
CTO: That box thing in your hand must have done something to my recorder!  I had a very important interview with the volleyball coach from last night on there!

Host CO_Marek says:
Admiral/XO: Very well, I think it is time to contact the Sigma Kappas now.

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
CO/XO: Until we find out exactly what has transpired here, I want that man locked down tight with a 24-hour guard, is that clear?

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Shrugs:: Eric: Some things don't trrravel well.

Host CO_Marek says:
CO: Very clear, Admiral.

Host Eric_VanSickle says:
CTO: Look, kitty, it was working fine when I arrived here.

XO_Spicer says:
Admiral: Yes, Ma'am.

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
XO: I trust your team will get to the bottom of this.  ::Stands:: Keep me informed.  I will be in my quarters.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
Eric: Don't call me kitty! ::Growls and lashes her tail::

CNS_Torez says:
Eric: I know you want to know what happened to you just as much as we want to know how you got here, so , how about you start by telling us how you started your day this morning?

Host Eric_VanSickle says:
CTO: ::Decides to push his luck:: Here, kitty, kitty, kiiiiiiiiity!

XO_Spicer says:
::Taps his COM badge:: *CTO*: Commander, place a 24-hour guard on our guest until further notice.

Host CO_Marek says:
::Stands and nods as the Admiral leaves::

XO_Spicer says:
Admiral: Yes, Ma'am.

CNS_Torez says:
Eric: I would not do that if I were you!

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Walks out of the Ready Room and doesn't stop until she gets to the turbolift::

XO_Spicer says:
::Looks at the CO:: CO: Captain, this is one fine mess we are in.

Host CO_Marek says:
::Adds to the XO’s instructions:: *CTO*:  See that our ... err... guest... is fully scanned and a full DNA profile is completed.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
*XO/CO*: Yes, Sirrr. ::Flicks out her claws and walks slowly towards Eric::

Host Admiral_Mitchell says:
::Taps her COM badge:: *CO/XO*: I want someone to contact Captain VanSickle.  Inform me when you have found him.  Mitchell, out.  ::Enters the turbolift::

Host CO_Marek says:
XO: I totally agree.

Host CO_Marek says:
*Admiral*: Very well, Sir.

CNS_Torez says:
::Shouts:: Eric: STOP PLAYING WITH THE CAT AND SIT DOWN, NOW!

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
CNS: I say we give him a pink jumpsuit.

Host Eric_VanSickle says:
::Gets in a defensive stance with fists covering his head as the CTO advances::

Host Eric_VanSickle says:
CNS: I'll be fine, Ms. Torez.  I know how to handle cats and I know Tae Kwon Do.

CNS_Torez says:
::Winks at CTO::

Host CO_Marek says:
XO: Well, let's open a channel and inform the Sigma Kappas about this. I think we should follow the Admiral’s suggestion about the transporter malfunction, after all, that was what really happened.

Host Eric_VanSickle says:
CTO: Especially bad cats...

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
CNS: Captain and XO's orrrderrrs. We need to confiscate and scan all of his items...I think it's pink jumpsuit time. ::Toothy grin at Eric::

CNS_Torez says:
Eric: I'll bet you can't handle this person!

XO_Spicer says:
CO: Yes, Sir. I think we should play this as if we don't know what happened to the Ambassador and not mention our "guest".

Host Eric_VanSickle says:
CTO: I'm not going anywhere until I get a full explanation of what is going on here.  ::Stays in sparring stance::

CNS_Torez says:
