U.S.S. Luna mission

Queens Night Takes the Rook

Stardate 10110.28

Host Karriaunna says:
Synopsis:  The Luna crew has returned to their time period; however it is not as they remember it.  The ship is opulent in the extreme.  About the ship the security outweighs the crew, wherever one looks, there is a guard.  Security protocols are strict.

Host Karriaunna says:
<<<<<<<<Begin>>>>>>>>>>>

Host CO_Merced says:
::sitting in his ready room::

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: moving to the Science console and tapping some buttons.::

Host CO_Merced says:
Computer: What is our current mission?

CEO_Jokeg says:
::exits the lavished TL and looks around the bridge::  This is nuts...

CNS_Luchena says:
::stands on the bridge stunned, the voices a little quieter now that the bag is out of the room::

Host Karriaunna says:
ACTION: The CMO gets a reading of the current future.

CEO_Jokeg says:
CNS: This is too much...

CNS_Luchena says:
CEO:  Where are we?

CEO_Jokeg says:
FCO: What is our current course and speed, also position.

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
::points to the CONN and says CNS: please check:

Host Karriaunna says:
<Computer>CO:  The USS Luna is to pick up a shipment of Talean ore from the Providean Government at nominal cost.

CNS_Luchena says:
::goes over to the CONN and checks course and speed::

Host CO_Merced says:
::slaps forehead::  Self: Travel through time and space and we STILL get merchant missions.

Host Karriaunna says:
<FCO> CEO:  We are heading for the Providean government sir.  Our ETA is about 30 minutes to the system.

Host CO_Merced says:
Computer: What is the mission status?

CEO_Jokeg says:
FCO: Thank you.

CNS_Luchena says:
::moves away and finds a quite spot to sit down and compose himself in::

CEO_Jokeg says:
CMO: Do a long-range scan, see what you can find around us, patrol patterns...anything.

Host Karriaunna says:
<Computer> CO: We are inroute to Providea.  The government is not conducive to the empires request.

Host CO_Merced says:
Computer: Why is there resistance?

CEO_Jokeg says:
CNS: You ok Counselor?

CNS_Luchena says:
::nods at the CEO::

CEO_Jokeg says:
::sits in the Captains chair, sighing::

CNS_Luchena says:
CMO:  When you have a moment, do you have something to block telepathy?

CEO_Jokeg says:
*CO*: Captain ETA to Providea is 30 minutes.

CEO_Jokeg says:
CNS: Counselor, what are you sensing??

Host Karriaunna says:
<Computer> CO: The price the Kingdom is offering is below the current value.

Host CO_Merced says:
::nods:: *CEO* Establish orbit around the planet when we reach it and notify me.

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
CNS : I would have to examine you before I would prescribe anything.:

CEO_Jokeg says:
*CO*: Aye sir.

Host CO_Merced says:
Computer: What are the mission parameters?

CNS_Luchena says:
CEO:  The Devidians' bag, Sir.  I can't block it out.

CEO_Jokeg says:
CMO: What did we ever do with that thing?

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
CEO : CO has it in his RR.:

Host Karriaunna says:
<Computer> CO:  To get the ore at the queen’s price.  Standard procedure as needed.

Host CO_Merced says:
::looks across his desk at the XO as the computer answers::

Host CO_Merced says:
Computer:  Refresh my memory, what is standard procedure?

CEO_Jokeg says:
::looks around the bridge at all the Security personnel::

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: stands at Science trying to get a reading on what is going on with the Luna and this altered reality.::

CEO_Jokeg says:
::sees the CMO hard at work:: CNS: Is it the fact that the bag is here with us?

TO_Markham says:
:: Enters the Bridge and goes to Tac 1 console::

Host CO_Merced says:
::wonders why this computer is noticeably slower than the one in the last time line::

XO_West says:
::Looking over at CO, listening to computer::

CEO_Jokeg says:
::sees the TO::TO: Do a long-range scan, report anything out of the ordinary. ::mumbles:: that’s a understatement...

CNS_Luchena says:
::nods at the CEO::  CEO:  Perhaps if I found something else to focus on.  Can I take the OPS station?

CEO_Jokeg says:
CNS: Yes Counselor of course.

TO_Markham says:
CEO: Aye sir

CNS_Luchena says:
CEO:  Thank you.  ::gets up and moves to OPS::

Host CO_Merced says:
::trying to be patient with the computer::

CEO_Jokeg says:
*ME*: Engineering anything to report?

CNS_Luchena says:
::punches some buttons trying to get a sense of how this ship is run::

CEO_Jokeg says:
<ME>*CEO*: No suh, all systems are working quite well suh.

Host Karriaunna says:
<Computer> We have supremacy, our will is to prevail in all issues, including removal of an uncooperative alia to a new colony.

Host CO_Merced says:
Computer: Define alia, please.

XO_West says:
::Still looking at the odd surroundings::

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: thinks supremacy hmmmmm, taps some more buttons looking for a cause of this phenomena.::

CNS_Luchena says:
::pulls up the general orders of whatever organization they belong to in this timeline::

CEO_Jokeg says:
::shakes his head, hearing the Englishman in ME::

CEO_Jokeg says:
CNS: Monitor any com traffic, maybe we can get clues to what is going on.

CNS_Luchena says:
CEO:  Aye Sir.

CNS_Luchena says:
::rotates through all frequencies looking for comm signals::

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
CEO : according to this timeline the Titanic never sank.:

CNS_Luchena says:
::can still hear a muffled screaming of the souls in the Devidians' bag::

XO_West says:
::begins to tap fingers on desk, then stops holding her hands behind her.

CEO_Jokeg says:
::shakes his head:: CMO: Well that explains things some...

Host CO_Merced says:
::still waiting on the computer::

TO_Markham says:
CEO: From my scans sir the European continent is very powerful, and they are expanding their territory

CEO_Jokeg says:
::hears the TO::TO: Expanding?

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: leaves Science and heads for Sickbay, she wants her weapons and armor.::

CNS_Luchena says:
::still checking for communications while reading over the general orders::

Host CO_Merced says:
XO: Very odd computer I would say.  What do you think so far?

TO_Markham says:
CEO: I scan large troop movements on the western continent

Host Karriaunna says:
<Computer> Alias are those whom are part of the Kingdom.

CEO_Jokeg says:
::thinking through this, hoping the CO and XO are making some headway::

XO_West says:
CO: sort of slow also.

CEO_Jokeg says:
::nods to TO::

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
::Exits the bridge and enters the TL, goes to Sickbay and enters her office.::

Host CO_Merced says:
Computer:  Are there any orders for this mission coded to me?

TO_Markham says:
CEO: Sir that is one large force ,I would hate to get into their way

XO_West says:
CO: we need to have more information I'd say!

Host Karriaunna says:
<Computer> CO:  Yes.

CEO_Jokeg says:
TO: Very well, any ships in our area?

Host CO_Merced says:
::Waits for a moment::  Self: Damn literal computers.  Computer: Please relay them.

TO_Markham says:
CEO: Except with a Tri-Cobalt torpedo of course.:: Smiles::

TO_Markham says:
CEO: None that I can scan sir

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: pulls out her Battle armor, and dons it, straps her taj to her ankle and sheathes her Bat'leth to her back, leaves her hair loose as a symbol of courage, and heads back to the TL and the bride.::

Host Karriaunna says:
<Computer> CO: Password.

XO_West says:
::Looks at CO::

TO_Markham says:
:: Checks his weapon and shield status::

Host CO_Merced says:
::eyes the ceiling::  Computer: I'm a little teapot, short and stout.

Host Karriaunna says:
<Computer> CO: Password incorrect.

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: enters the Bridge and heads for the CONN.::

Host Karriaunna says:
ACTION:  A red light flashes at the tactical station, possible intruder alert.

XO_West says:
CO: I guess this mission is not one of expediency, this message is so slow in getting spelled out.

Host CO_Merced says:
::shrugs::  XO: I guess we aren't going to get the coded orders.

TO_Markham says:
CEO: New readings coming in sir

Host CO_Merced says:
XO: What do you think?

CEO_Jokeg says:
::turns to TO::

CNS_Luchena says:
CEO:  Listen to this.  First general order:  It may be necessary to interfere with the normal development of cultures and societies in order to expand our Empire. All losses are tolerated as long as they are necessary to observe this General Order.

XO_West says:
CO: Perhaps just your regular command code is needed?

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
CEO : Shields?:

CEO_Jokeg says:
::looks back at Luchena:: CNS: What?

Host CO_Merced says:
::eyes the XO::  XO: That IS my regular command code.

CNS_Luchena says:
::mouth drops open as he reads the second general order::

CEO_Jokeg says:
TO: What is the reading??

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: hears the CNS and starts thinking oops we really messed this up.::

XO_West says:
CO: Try again sir, maybe it did not recognize your voice.

CNS_Luchena says:
CEO:  We are not in Starfleet anymore Sir.

TO_Markham says:
::Walks over to the XO:: ::Whispers  Sir we have an intruder alert we need to go to the ready room

CEO_Jokeg says:
::shakes his head:: CNS: Now I know how Dorothy felt...

Host CO_Merced says:
::observes the TO talking to the XO IN the ready room:: TO: And who would that be Ensign?

XO_West says:
::Nods::

CEO_Jokeg says:
*CO*: Captain we are reading an intruder in the Ready Room.

XO_West says:
TO: Find out who and why they are there.

TO_Markham says:
CO: Unknown sir:: draws his phaser::

CNS_Luchena says:
::reads the second general order:   An officer is allowed to do harm to an intelligent life form if it is necessary to meet our objectives.::

CNS_Luchena says:
Thinks to self:  Hummm...

Host CO_Merced says:
::looks from left to right:: TO: I don't see an intruder.  Do you?

TO_Markham says:
::Opens the ready room door and readies his weapon::

TO_Markham says:
CO: No sir ,however that does not mean one is not present

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
::Sees the TO draw a weapons and runs to tackle him.::

TO_Markham says:
::Pulls out a tricorder and runs a scan of the ready room::

Host CO_Merced says:
::Raises a hand to halt the CMO:: TO: Feel free to take a look.  It's a small place, they can't hide form you long if they are here.

TO_Markham says:
CO: Aye sir ,I recommend you stand back

CNS_Luchena says:
::wonders what their new prime directive might be::

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: draws her bat'leth::

CNS_Luchena says:
::is afraid to look it up::

XO_West says:
TO: were you responding to the computer for the command codes?

Host CO_Merced says:
::waits patiently:: TO: Ensign.  Are you telling me, your Captain, to move?

TO_Markham says:
CO: Merely a suggestion sir

TO_Markham says:
::Scans the entire RR and turns towards the CO::

TO_Markham says:
::Looks at the XO:: Nods towards the CO::

Host CO_Merced says:
TO: Then I SUGGEST you conduct your investigation quickly, WITHOUT intruding any further upon the First Officer and myself.  Am I understood?

TO_Markham says:
::Draws the phaser on the CO::

XO_West says:
::Looking at TO as he walks toward CO::

CEO_Jokeg says:
::wondering why the TO went into the RR, and the good doctor has her bat`leth drawn::

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: charges the CO::

TO_Markham says:
CO: Sir please do not move

XO_West says:
::Draws Phaser on TO::

Host CO_Merced says:
TO: Explain yourself Ensign before I have you drawn and quartered.

CNS_Luchena says:
::senses some commotion in the RR but is only going in there when hell freezes over::

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: puts the point of her Bat'leth under the CO's chin and nods to the TO to show the XO the Tricorder readings.::

TO_Markham says:
CO: Drawn and quartered sir?  Hardly Starfleet language

CEO_Jokeg says:
::shakes his head::

Host Karriaunna says:
<FCO> CEO:  ETA to the system is 10 min sir.

CEO_Jokeg says:
FCO: Very well...

TO_Markham says:
XO: The CO is not as appearances, Alien

CNS_Luchena says:
::looks over at the CEO::  CEO:  Should I try to contact this planet or something?

CEO_Jokeg says:
CNS: I think we have entered the Twilight zone

Host CO_Merced says:
::Stand menacingly:: TO: If you don't explain yourself in short order, you will find out I can make it 'Starfleet language' very quickly.

CEO_Jokeg says:
CNS: Once we enter standard orbit we'll contact them.

CNS_Luchena says:
::starts humming the Twilight Zone theme::

TO_Markham says:
XO: Not able to enter proper command codes and speaks as if in the 17 century and not matching Bio scans of our Captain

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: knocks the CO back in his seat ::

CNS_Luchena says:
CEO:  Right Sir.  ::resumes humming::

XO_West says:
CMO: Stand down.

TO_Markham says:
CO: Perhaps you can explain why your bio readings do not match your registered bio scans

XO_West says:
:;Looking at the tricorder readings::

TO_Markham says:
*Security* Send a team to the Captains ready room, armed

TO_Markham says:
XO: See sir

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: growls::

XO_West says:
TO: stand down, now!  Theses tricorder readings prove nothing.

TO_Markham says:
CO: If you are the Captain perhaps you would submit to a Bio scan from the CMO

XO_West says:
::Looking with distain at TO::

TO_Markham says:
CO: If I am wrong I will accept punishment

Host Gov_Jones says:
<Security> *TO*:  Aye sir.

CNS_Luchena says:
::wanders over to the tactical console and checks scans of the planet they are approaching::

Host CO_Merced says:
::can see the doctor is being of no help whatsoever:: TO: Not likely since I am about to have her thrown in the brig for putting a bat'leth to my throat. However, one of her staff will do nicely.

Host Gov_Jones says:
@::Pacing::

TO_Markham says:
XO: Sir there are some unknown particles covering the CO,I do not know what they are

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: pulls out her medical tricorder.::

CEO_Jokeg says:
:;walks into the RR, eyes wide:: All: What is going on in here!!??

Host CO_Merced says:
XO: Commander, please remove these people from my ready room.

TO_Markham says:
XO: ::After scanning him:: Orders sir

XO_West says:
TO: what makes you think this is not the captain, I should know I have been here with him the whole time!

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: scans the CO head to toe.::

CNS_Luchena says:
::watches the CEO enter the RR and realizes he has the bridge.  Sincerely hopes nothing happens::

Host CO_Merced says:
::loves being ignored::

TO_Markham says:
XO: I calibrated this tricorder my self

TO_Markham says:
XO: This may be the shell of the CO, but it is not the Captain

XO_West says:
CMO/TO: stand down, put your weapons down, now!

XO_West says:
::Tapping com badge:: <Security send a team to the CO's RR and on the double.

TO_Markham says:
CO: I am sorry Captain, I am sure you would want what is best for the ship as I do

CEO_Jokeg says:
::wondering when someone is going to speak up::

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: sheaths her Bat'leth, reluctantly. and looks at the XO.::

CNS_Luchena says:
::realizes they will be entering orbit soon and wonders what they will do next::

Host Gov_Jones says:
ACTION:  Security officers rush into the ready room, weapons in hand.

TO_Markham says:
XO: Sir the Captain reads as an alien. We should investigate, until we know

XO_West says:
<Security> take into custody, TO and CMO.

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
XO : there is a phase differential here, the CO is genetically the same.::

CEO_Jokeg says:
::sighs, walking back onto the bridge, sitting in the center seat::

CNS_Luchena says:
::is happy to see the CEO return::  CEO:  What's going on in there?

Host Gov_Jones says:
<Security> ::Looks from their chief to the XO, confused::  XO:  Sir?

TO_Markham says:
XO: I'm sorry sir ...If you take command temporarily, and order the CO to get checked out in sickbay I'll have him escorted to sickbay and we will be sure

CEO_Jokeg says:
CNS: I have no idea Counselor, the whole crew is in need of psych evaluations.

XO_West says:
<Security> detain them both in the brig until I can investigate this matter closely.

CNS_Luchena says:
::makes a "crazy" face::  CEO:  Then we really are in trouble.

TO_Markham says:
XO: I will escort him myself, No weapon

CEO_Jokeg says:
CNS: You have no idea...

CEO_Jokeg says:
CNS: We have a job to do....

Host Gov_Jones says:
<Security> ::Looks at the officers in this room, wishing they were elsewhere::

CNS_Luchena says:
CEO:  Right.

CNS_Luchena says:
::has no idea what sort of job they have to do::

CEO_Jokeg says:
FCO: Enter standard orbit when we arrive.

Host Gov_Jones says:
<FCO> CEO:  We are approaching the Providea system.

CEO_Jokeg says:
FCO: Drop out of warp.

CNS_Luchena says:
::continues scanning the system::

Host Gov_Jones says:
<FCO> CEO:  Slowing to impulse.

TO_Markham says:
XO: Sir I do not wish to be court-martialed.  I would not be doing this if I were not sure

CEO_Jokeg says:
::Punching up their orders from the center chair::

CEO_Jokeg says:
*CO*: Captain come to the bridge please.

Host Gov_Jones says:
<FCO> CEO:  Sir, we be entering standard orbit.  I ha' the gov' on the line.

TO_Markham says:
XO: Sir, orders

XO_West says:
TO: You do not attack your captain in this manner, you are relieved of duty until more information is available.

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: eyes the XO, in disbelief::

CEO_Jokeg says:
::nods to the FCO::CNS: Have the governor stand by.

TO_Markham says:
XO: Sir !!

CEO_Jokeg says:
*CO*: Sir the governor of Providea is wishing to speak to you.

CNS_Luchena says:
COMM:  Governor Jones:  Please stand by.  We are experiencing technical difficulties.

CEO_Jokeg says:
CNS: Put the governor on screen.

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: stands watching the CO closely, reluctantly obeying the XO's orders.::

Host Gov_Jones says:
@COMM: CNS:  We are standing by.

CNS_Luchena says:
::puts the Governor on screen::

TO_Markham says:
::Lowers his weapon and motions for his team to do the same ,however motions them to stick close and be ready::

CEO_Jokeg says:
::stands::COM: GOV: Governor...

Host Gov_Jones says:
ACTION: The governor is a young man, wearing non-Kingdom uniform.

Host Gov_Jones says:
<Security team> ::Follows the lead of their chief::

XO_West says:
CO: What do you make of this action?

CNS_Luchena says:
::looks up at the screen::

TO_Markham says:
:: Stays close to the CO::

XO_West says:
CO: Your thoughts?

CEO_Jokeg says:
COM: GOV: We understand you do not agree with Her Majesty's prices, you seem to have your own set price...

Host Gov_Jones says:
@::Gives a poker face::  COMM:  Where is your captain?

TO_Markham says:
:: Motions for the security team to station themselves around the room::

Host CO_Merced says:
XO: Which are you referring to?

CEO_Jokeg says:
COM: GOV: Don't worry about where my Captain is...

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: fingers her bat'leth but does not draw it.::

Host Gov_Jones says:
@COMM:  CEO:  It is unfair and would break us.  This is a new colony, we need all the help we can get, not the opposite.

XO_West says:
CO: Regarding the action that just took place.  I did read some not so comforting reading on the tricorder, but...

CNS_Luchena says:
::after reading the general orders, suspects the next step would be to nuke these guys::

TO_Markham says:
::Walks over to the CMO:: CMO keep that thing handy ...We may need it

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: scans the XO with her Tricorder, and nods to the TO.::

Host CO_Merced says:
XO: I would say I will be very happy when my ready room is my own again.

CEO_Jokeg says:
COMM: GOV: That is not my concern Governor, we are here for the shipment, we expect it at the set rates, and you have 20 minutes. 

XO_West says:
CO: Understood.

Host Gov_Jones says:
@::Looks at the CEO::  CEO:  We understand... and we understand the consequences, so be it, and may God find mercy for you.  ::Cuts the communications::

CEO_Jokeg says:
::looks at the CNS::Hmmm.

CNS_Luchena says:
CEO:  Yellow alert Sir?

Host CO_Merced says:
::eyes everyone in his ready room:: ALL: Am I getting my room back any time soon?

CNS_Luchena says:
CEO:  Raise shields maybe?

CEO_Jokeg says:
*CO*: Sir I have made contact with the governor, it seems he does not want to negotiate.

CEO_Jokeg says:
CNS: Yellow alert.

TO_Markham says:
CMO: Whispers:: see if you can determine what the particulate matter is that covers the Captain

XO_West says:
CO: <whispering>Sir, I think it best at this time that you try to figure out how to retrieve your coded messages>

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: looks at the CO and nods, reluctantly leaving the RR and entering the bridge.::

CNS_Luchena says:
::goes to yellow alert and raises shields::

TO_Markham says:
CO: Yes sir:: Motions for 2 security agents to stand guard on the door

CMO_Ravenprowler says:
:: stands on the bridge very confused.::

Host Gov_Jones says:
