@ACTION: The CTO touches the ships hull and in an unspectacular way vanishes

CMO_Cmdr_McDonald says:
@:: starting to take readings at the shuttle. seeing if he can find anything sentient
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
::Ewan continues to rest on the biobed in Sickbay with a mysterious illness::
SO_Lt_Silver says:

CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@:: Has his tricorder looking for any abnormalities in the hull::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
OPS: Enjoying Bridge duty, Ensign?
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@:: Blinks as the CTO vanishes::  All: Did I not say to be careful?
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@*CO*: I seem to have misplaced the CTO.
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
::sighs and then thinks of the other thing on his mind::  SO: Lieutenant....  I've been on a certain personal mission to help a friend find a offspring in the care of a Terran....
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
CO: Yes, sir! I always wanted that, sir, to be where things happen!
SO_Lt_Silver says:
MO: You make it sound very challenging.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
*XO*: How did you manage that, Commander?  :: Looks to the operations officer ::  OPS: Can we detect his combadge or lifesigns?
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@CMO: See if you can lock onto the CTO.
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@:: finds some very unusual readings
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
CO: Working on that sir.
CMO_Cmdr_McDonald says:
@XO: Understood.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@CEO: Do not touch the hull of the vessel.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@*CO*: He touched the ship.
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
CO: Sensors show his position about 2 km from the vessel, sir.
CMO_Cmdr_McDonald says:
@:: starts trying to lock onto the CTO::
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@XO: Aye sir,Ah can understand that..I will not do that
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
::nods::  SO: More challenging than I expected...  I thought a simple search in the Federation databanks for someone who has registered an eight month old child of a race that rarely enters Federation space would prove simple but....
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@::comes around the ship:: XO: There seems to be no obvious way in.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
OPS: Can you beam him back to the away team's position?
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@FCO: Ah would not say that We just have ta find the right place
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@ There must be someway.  Or is it a case of beaming in and out?  Any obvious shielding?
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
CO: Yes, captain. Engaging transport now.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@ ::goes back to her original plan before the CTO vanished:: *Alien vessel*: Please respond.
SO_Lt_Silver says:
MO: Rarely enters federation space?

ACTION: For whatever reason OPS is unable to initiate the transport cycle, the CTO will just not dematerialize

FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@CEO: By 'obvious' I meant 'not visible'. Maybe your tricorder can help
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
CO: Captain, there's a problem with the transport, sir. Dematerialization doesn't occur, sir.
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@FCO: It is givin me some very erratic readins

@ACTION: The XO gets nothing back from her comm

OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
CO: Transport can't get a firm lock on him.
CMO_Cmdr_McDonald says:
@XO: I've located the CTO, 2Kms. NNE of us here.
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
::nods::  SO: This race is located several light years beyond our borders, a very advanced race by-the-way.  Anyhow, a child of this race is in the care of a Federation citizen... namely human however I can't find a trace within Federation space.
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
::Ewan is resting comfortably::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
OPS: Curious.  Can we dispatch a shuttle to his position to recover him?
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@XO: Ma readins on the tricorder are very strange
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@CMO: That is quite a distance given the underbrush.  See if you can contact him.
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
CO: Yes, sir. There's a shuttle ready.

@ACTION: Curiously there appears to be a well worn trail leading in a North, North Easterly direction away from the ship.

XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@CEO: What readings are you getting?  And would they prevent my comm signal for entering the vessel?  I would really like to know if we are dealing with someone or not.
CMO_Cmdr_McDonald says:
@*CTO* Come in Please Gladius
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
SO: I don't even know the name of the human the child is in the care of

@ACTION: The CMO gets no response.

SO_Lt_Silver says:
MO: And this race is allowing strangers to care for one of their own?
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@XO: Aye sir,The sensor signal seems ta be reflected back, except for two distinct areas
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@XO: Both I believe could gain us entry
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
::nods::  SO: Well.... this is a very special case.  ::pauses weighing the options::  You see this child is to be the next leader of their race however the current leader has vanished leaving the people in turmoil.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@ CEO: Two distinct areas?  And where are those?
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@CEO: That could be our ways in.
CMO_Cmdr_McDonald says:
@XO: No response.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
OPS: Contact the Executive Officer.  Inform her of our plan.
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@XO: One is a much larger area, which to me would indicate like a cargo hatch ...
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
*XO: Commander Singh, the Captain intends to send a shuttle to retrieve Lt. Gladius

ACTION: The Luna receives yet another hail from the Atlas.

CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@XO: One is to your left about 1 meter. The other is about 5 meters ta ma right
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
COM: Atlas: This is Luna, please come in.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
*CIV*: Captain?
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
CO: Captain, we're being hailed by Atlas.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@*OPS*: Why not beam him aboard?  Is something wrong?
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@::walks about a meter left and looks at the ship:: CEO: Here? I don't see anything...
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@CEO: Try sending a comm signal through there.  Let us see what happens.
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
*XO*: Can't get a lock on his signal, sir.  Something appears to be preventing it.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
OPS: Understood.  :: Brings the message on screen to help take some of the load off the ops manager ::
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
::coughing and hacking, Ewan taps his combadge:: *CO*: You rang?
SO_Lt_Silver says:
::Looks intently at him:: MO: He is to be the leader of his people... and have lost him?

ACTION: The now familiar face of Commander Sutcliffe appears on the viewscreen

CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@XO: Aye sir...
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@*OPS*: Can you get a lock on us?
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@:: Points his tricorder at the first opening then the second::
Host Cmdr_Sutcliffe says:
#::smiling a grim little smile:: COM: Luna: Captain.  We have detected what we believe to be a vessel on this side of the moon, we are sending an away team to investigate, any luck your side?
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
SO: The way I understand it is... the former leader left him in the care of a human but kept who it was a secret.  They didn't technically lose him.  Now that the current leader has vanished prematurely....
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@:: Self: hhhmmm
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
*CIV*: Yes, Captain, was curious as to your status.

@ACTION: The CEO's tricorder gives a feeble little "beep" and nothing happens

Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
COM: Atlas: We have found a vessel as well, and have an away team on the surface.  If the craft is of the same design, I suggest against physically touching it - it sent one of our officers nearly two kilometers away.
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
SO: To tell you the truth... I don't even know if the child is male or female.
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
*CO*: Don't know, can't get a straight answer from any of the doctor's...quacks!
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@XO: This seems to get us nowhere. We could always try blasting our way in.
SO_Lt_Silver says:
MO: Your task sounds... challenging.  If he was given in the care of someone, would they really have registered him?  I am getting the impression anonymity was a safety measure.
Host Cmdr_Sutcliffe says:
#COM: Luna: I trust your crew member is okay?  We shall take necessary precautions I can assure you.
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@XO: Ah cannot get a readin  Ah would stake ma life on sir
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
SO: Good point Lieutenant.  One I had not considered... however... this race stands out like a sore thumb.  Someone else surely would have raised some questions at the very sight.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
COM: Atlas: We have been unable to completely ascertain.  Communications and transporters seem to not work in that area; we are instead dispatching a shuttle to the location.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@ FCO: I have a problem with someone blasting their way into something that is mine, just because they cannot get in.  Any other possible suggestions?  It is not as if it is doing us harm.
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
*XO*: Yes, sir, we can lock on you all, no problem.
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@XO: Only one way ta find out for sure
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@CEO: Options?
Host Cmdr_Sutcliffe says:
#COM: Luna: Keep us informed then; if you require any assistance, let us know. Atlas out.
SO_Lt_Silver says:
MO: What is strange to some, is not strange to another.  Why not take them to a place they can 'hide' them into the open?
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@XO: Knocking maybe?
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@XO: Limited...Sir...But if we pick up something long an put one end in ,hold on ta the other and see if the tricorder will pick it up
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
*CO*: So, once they know, then I know, then you'll know.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@*OPS*: That is good.  Try to discover why you cannot get a lock on the CTO.  That answer might be critical later on.
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
CO: Captain, sorry to interrupt, but we have a positive lock on the CTO, but can't beam him over, and we have a lock on the other members of the AT. Should we try to transport one of them?
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@FCO: Remember what happened ta the CTO?
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@CEO: I was just kidding. ::grins::
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
::raises an eyebrow at Silver's response::  SO: Like a desolate planet or possibly....  outside Federation controlled space?
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@FCO: My only concern is finding ourselves visiting the CTO.
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
*XO*: Yes, sir. I'll do it now.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
OPS: No.  We'll divert the shuttle to the away team's position in case they need to be evacuated as well.  Signal the shuttle they are clear for launch when it is ready.
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@:: Smiles a sheepish smile to the FCO::
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@::Looks at the engineer:: CEO: Can you determine any difference from where the CTO touched to the areas you find unusual?
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@Self:: Hey she's kinda cute,:: as he looks her over::
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@XO: Aye sir,The two areas ah found were not reflected back at me
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
CO: Yes, sir. They are launching now.
CMO_Cmdr_McDonald says:
*XO*: Permission to go off and see what is happening and why we can't get a lock. That'll give me a chance to do some more detailed scans and get some samples
SO_Lt_Silver says:
MO: My mother taught me once that the easiest way to hide something, was out in the open.  For some reason, people find that a hard concept.  Yet it works very often.
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
::scratches head::  SO: You mean in plain view of everyone?
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@XO: Also where the CTO was lets say taken in there is a residual energy readin...Other than than nothin
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@CEO: How about throwing a few rocks at that area?
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@XO: Ya might be able ta do that,But...Ah wouldn't...Might make the owners a wee bit .....Mad
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@:: Looks around and finds a long kinda stick...::
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@CMO*: I do not want you out of sight.  The ship is sending someone to get the CTO.  I do however want you to get those samples.  Carefully.
CMO_Cmdr_McDonald says:
@*XO* Understood I'll go no more than 500M from my present location.
SO_Lt_Silver says:
MO: Yes... Are there no other species similar to them?  or close enough that a few 'differences' would not be thought of?
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@XO: Permission to try an experiment Sir
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@ CEO: I think they might prefer a rude knock then an unwanted window.
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
::shakes head slowly:: SO: I don't think the Federation has species of this nature.   I may be wrong though, there are so many of them.
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@XO: Window?
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@XO: A little sunshine might do them good...
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@XO: Ah was just goin ta stick one end of this to the hull an if it goes in..Try to detect it on the tricorder
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
*SO*: Lt. Silver, I can get a lock on the CTO at the moon, but can't beam him up. Can you help me to find the cause, please?
CMO_Cmdr_McDonald says:
:: starts walking and grabs samples of soils and comes upon this interesting looking plant :: *XO* I've taken soil and water samples but i've come across this interesting looking plant. It almost looks like a venus fly trap from Earth.
SO_Lt_Silver says:
MO: What exactly do they look like?
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
::hears the OPS officer's voice come over the Comm::
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
::leans in close::  SO: Have you ever heard of the Sekloth?
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@*CMO*: Be careful.
SO_Lt_Silver says:
MO: The name sounds familiar... :: a frown of frustration touches her brow before leaving.::

@ACTION: The CMO hears a rustling coming from a little deeper in the forest

SO_Lt_Silver says:
*OPS*: How might I be of service?
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
*SO*: There's something preventing transportation of Lt Gladius, lieutenant..
CMO_Cmdr_McDonald says:
:: Lenny's interest gets piqued as he steps a bit deeper into the forest constantly scanning for signs of life.
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
SO: The Sekloth are a reptilian based race.  They are unlike the Gorn in the way that they are peaceful and non-territorial
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@::Watches the CEO::
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@XO: Permission ta try it sir
SO_Lt_Silver says:
:: Nods:: MO: There are other races, just not as intelligent.  If you will excuse me, I am needed on the bridge.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@ ::Motions for him to try.::
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
::sighs and nods::  SO: May I join you?
SO_Lt_Silver says:
MO: Please... perhaps you might find an answer as well.
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@:: Touches one of the sticks to the hull::
SO_Lt_Silver says:
::Motions a tech over to keep an eye on the samples and then heads for the door.::
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
SO: An answer?  You mean to why they can get a lock on Augustus but not able to beam him up?  That sounds more scientific than medical.

@ACTION: The hull appears to "ripple" where the CEO touches it

XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@ :: Feels a tightness in her chest and realizes she was holding her breath.::  CEO: Interesting... carefully try other areas.
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@XO: Ah think we hit pay dirt sir
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
*CO*: Was there something you wanted from me Captain?
CMO_Cmdr_McDonald says:
:: Only getting plant readings he turns around to head back out the way he came ::
SO_Lt_Silver says:
MO: Last I checked, medical was under science... as was a body.  ::Steps into the lift.::
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@:: Begins to touch other areas::

@ACTION: The undergrowth rustles again, this time a little off to the CMO's right

MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
::smirks as he follows the SO into the TL::  SO: Point well taken.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
*CIV*: If you were up to it, I could use another experienced officer on the Bridge.  But if you are ill....
CMO_Cmdr_McDonald says:
@:: Spins and grabs his phaser pointing it at the direction of the noise :: Opens his mind up to see if he can get any sense of whats out there ::

@ACTION: As the hull of the vessel ripples some more at the CEO's touches, both him and the XO begin to feel a tingling sensation throughout their bodies

SO_Lt_Silver says:
:: Steps off the lift and moves over to science.::
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@CEO/FCO: Did you feel that?
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
::follows the SO onto the bridge and takes a quick look around::  CO: Can I be of any assistance Captain?
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@XO: Sir ahm feelin kinda tingly

@ACTION: The CMO sees and feels the creature at the same time, a big pair of black eyes surrounded by grayish skin are staring at him from a bush, its feelings are that of tentative curiosity and a lot of very immediate fear.

SO_Lt_Silver says:
::Pulls up the sensor logs and begins to scan through them.::
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
*CO*: If you don't mind someone hacking and coughing everywhere
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@XO: Nope, I didn't feel anything....tingly...

@ACTION: The FCO begins to feel a bit tingly too.

CMO_Cmdr_McDonald says:
@*XO* I have come across a life form. I'm not sure what yet.
CMO_Cmdr_McDonald says:
@Creature: I mean you no harm :: puts away the phaser ::
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@XO: Ok, now I felt something
Host Lanna_Wei says:
@::speaks out of the bush:: CMO: I believe you in this.  Why are you here?
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
::figures the CO is too busy to respond so he steps over beside Silver:: SO: Sensor readings Lieutenant?
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@CEO/OPS: I have no idea what that means.  Let me try...
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@::Picks up a branch and lightly touches the ship in various places, feeling slightly silly.::
CMO_Cmdr_McDonald says:
Creature: We're exploring. My name Is Commander McDonald of the USS Luna
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@XO: Ah think it could be an energy flow to us somehow

@ACTION: The FCO, XO and CEO vanish the moment the XO touches the ship with the stick.

XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@ ::Pauses as she realizes what the doctor just said.:: *CMO*: Are you picking up any readings?
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
SO: From my point of view, Lieutenant, it seem the same thing that prevented sensors reading.
CMO_Cmdr_McDonald says:
@*XO*: You there please respond. I have made contact with a sentient being

@ACTION: They re-appear a few moments later inside what can only be described as a "tent", the CTO is lying on the floor, peacefully sleeping

SO_Lt_Silver says:
OPS: I am unable to pin down a reason why we cannot beam him up.  I would suggest that whoever picks him up, run a detailed scan of the general area for me.
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
SO: Yes, sir, I'll relay your request.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@ ::Blinks:: CEO/FCO: That was... interesting.
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@XO: I'd say so.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@ *CO*: Captain, we have been teleported to where the CTO is at.  He however is taking a nap.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@*CMO*: We are no longer at the ship but with the CTO.
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
::raises an eyebrow hearing the XO report::
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@::spots the CTO and hurries over to check for life signs:: XO: He's alive...just seems to be having a nice nap.
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@XO: Ah don know if ah would say that exactly
Host Lanna_Wei says:
@::steps out of the bush to reveal a creature that stands well over 7ft tall, has slim elongated limbs, wears a lose type of light blue robe and looks extremely fragile:: CMO: I am Laana Wei.

@ACTION: The away team can hear the unmistakable sound of a Federation shuttle passing overhead

XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@CEO: Say what?  ::Looks up a the sound.::
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@*CO*: We hear the shuttle above us.
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@XO: Shuttle...Overhead
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
*XO*: It seems they have not found a suitable place to land yet...
Host Lt_Speed says:
@*OPS*: This is Lieutenant Speed, I have found the CTO's position but I cannot find a landing site, transporters are ineffective... it also appears some other members of the away team are here.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@*CO*: I am not surprised.  Can they beam aboard the CTO from here and transport us back to the vessel?
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
*XO*: Negative.  Transporters are still experiencing their unknown interference.
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@XO: We should find a place from where they can beam us up.
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
::Ewan stumbles off the turbo-lift coughing::
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
::hears someone from behind::  CIV: Have you been to Sickbay yet Captain?
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
*Speed*: Acknowledged, lieutenant. Can you try to transport them? As you're closer, it may work.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@*CO*: But only in this area, correct?  If we move away?  Perhaps out from underneath this structure?
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
MO: Just escaped
Host Lt_Speed says:
@*OPS*:  Negative, they will not dematerialize.  I cannot explain it.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
*XO*: Unknown, Commander.  We were able to successfully transport you down to your previous coordinates...
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
::nods::  CIV: Congratulations.  I'll make sure the commandant doesn't find out
CMO_Cmdr_McDonald says:
@Laana: Please to meet you. We were under the impression no living beings were on this planet.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@ CEO/OPS: Let's leave this area... and see if the transporter will work away from it.
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
*Speed*: Same thing we had, sir.
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@XO: Aye sir
CMO_Cmdr_McDonald says:
*XO* I have made contact with a sentient being here.
SO_Lt_Silver says:
:: continuing her search for answers, also access the data base for species that would fit the doctors parameters.::
Host Lanna_Wei says:
@::nods to the strange alien and makes a few gentle gestures with her hands:: CMO: You would be correct in that impression.  This world has been devoid of any sentient life for several million years.
CMO_Cmdr_McDonald says:
Laana: Then What're you doing here?
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
::covers his mouth so as not to catch anything as the CIV passes by::
Host Lt_Speed says:
@*OPS*: I will remain in the area and try to find a landing site.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@*CMO*: I think there might be some difficulty with communication.  Are you able to read her?  Are you in any trouble?  And we are not where we were.
CMO_Cmdr_McDonald says:
*XO* I am unable to read her at his time as I am not trying to. I do not appear to be in any trouble at this time.
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
*Speed*: Yes, sir.
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
CO: Captain, the shuttle still couldn't find a suitable place to land.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@CMO: Define trouble...
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@::Steps out of the tent and finds....jungle, what a surprise::
Host Lanna_Wei says:
@CMO: We are here to gather what knowledge we can about our people from the ruins here, come, I shall show you to the others. ::blinks slowly at the CMO::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
OPS: Maybe we should have equipped them with rope ladders... or chainsaws.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@:: Follows the three officers wondering what next.::
CMO_Cmdr_McDonald says:
@*XO* The being Laana Wei seems to be an intelligent being. I am going to investigate further. Laana is taking me to investigate the ruins of her ancestors.
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@: Uses his tricorder to find a clearing::
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
CO: We can send them rope ladders, sir. ::smiles at the suggestion::

@ACTION: The FCO not only finds jungle, she also finds a group of humanoids working in and around the trees.  Each one of them has a  pale, almost grey coloured skin, are bold, and have elongated limbs giving them a particluarly fragile  appearance.  They are all dressed in a sort of light blue robe and not one of them is under 2 meters  in height.

XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@*CMO*: You are not to go alone... you know that is not wise.  Wait for someone to join you.
CMO_Cmdr_McDonald says:
@*XO* Understood. I will keep communication open
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@*CO*: Captain, we have company....
