Episode 221 “Third Party Intervention, Part 5”: It appears that the M-Class moon the Luna is orbiting is not as uninhabited as originally believed.  Most of the away team have managed to get themselves beamed to a location deep inside the forest and have encountered a group of fragile looking aliens, meanwhile all attempts on the ship to beam people up from this location have so far failed.

@Alien: We touched your ship with a branch because we did not want to hurt or be hurt by your ship.
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@XO: In the name o Nessie sir...A've never seen the like
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
:: Watching over things on the Bridge ::
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
::on the Bridge looking very pail and worn out from his illness::
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@*SO*: Silver, please scan my general area and tell me what you read.
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@::mumbles:: XO: I can see 6 aliens but there might be more.
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
::hearing the Commander he pears over Silver's shoulder::
SO_Lt_Silver says:
::Runs a scan:: *XO*: I am picking up vegetation and the away team.
Host Torn_Suu says:
@::blinks again:: XO: Why would you think you could hurt our vessel?  Something needs to be alive to be hurt.
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
SO: Same as before right?
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
OPS: Any luck, Ensign?
Host Torn_Suu says:
@::watches the CEO:: CEO: What is a... Nessie?
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@:: Quietly:: FCO: That answers that.  Still try your tricorder.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
Torn: Ummm... consider it an issue of not wanting to damage what was not mine, but wanting to know what it was.
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
CO: Not yet, captain
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@XO: Will do. ::starts walking around a little, smiling at the aliens::
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
CO: We have a lock, but cant de-materialize them.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
OPS: What have you tried so far?
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@Torn-Suu: It is a wee creature we have in the Loc Ness back home in Scotland
SO_Lt_Silver says:
MO: Yes... however, there is ummm... a classified section.  You would have to get clearance to check that data base.  Perhaps the captain can give it to you?
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
::hearing OPS::  OPS: Could it be some form of Transport Inhibitor?
Host Torn_Suu says:
@XO: You were merely curious then, I understand, we are curious by nature as well ::blinks slowly::
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
SO: Classified section of the surface scans?
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@*SO*: Silver... scan the area away from us.  Can you get a lock?
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@Torn: And you are?
Host Torn_Suu says:
@CEO: I am unfamiliar with this place
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
MO: Don't know, sir. As far as I know, could be anything.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
:: Turns towards the rear of the Bridge ::  CIV: Did our shuttle ever find a place to land?
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
SO: Lieutenant Silver, any luck yet?
SO_Lt_Silver says:
::Slowly blinks:: MO: My apologize... my mind was on the other issue.
Host Biib_Vida says:
@::returns the FCO's smile as she walks by him::
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@Torn-Suu: Aye as ya should be ...It is on me home planet
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
::looks over at the CIV wondering what the answer to the CO's question might be::
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@::tries to figure out what they are doing in the middle of the woods::
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
CO: I believe so.
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
::looks briefly surprised at the SO's response::  SO: Really?  A classified section?  Whatever for?  ::shakes it off and turns his attention back at the problem of the moment::
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@::checks her tricorder again, shakes it slightly to make sure it's actually working since it still does not pick up any life signs::
SO_Lt_Silver says:
*XO*: I can get a lock on you, but transporting is not possible.
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
CIV: You believe so?  And you achieved the rank of Captain?  ::looks oddly confused::
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@Torn-Suu: a"m sure you know about as much of my planet as ah do yours
Host Torn_Suu says:
@::blinks at the XO:: XO: We are the Naheev, I am Torn Suu.
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
::thinks if he was CO he'd ask the CIV to find out::
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@ Torn: Hello Torn Suu.  I am Commander Harmony Singh of the Federation starship USS Luna.  We are here do to curiosity of your vessel.

@ACTION: The FCO, being increasingly nosey notes the entrance to what could be a set of ruins amongst the tree's a couple of Naheev appear to be working near it

Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
:: Raises an eyebrow at the MO's question ::  CIV: Since the shuttle has an onboard transporter, perhaps we can use it as an enhancer for point to point.  Can you ask the transporter room to set up an experiment with one of our transport testing devices?
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
::looks back over to the doctor:: MO: You know doc, until you can cure me of my illness, I wouldn't speak
Host Torn_Suu says:
@::nods slowly to the CEO:: CEO: This is very true
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@*CO*: Captain, we have made contact with the Naheev.  I am speaking with Torn Suu.  Leaving communications open so you can listen as well.
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@Torn-Suu: Ah find ya interestin.. Indeed
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
::wonders when the CIV came to him about an illness and thinks a good sedative would cure the rest of the ship of his illness too::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
*XO*: A native species?  SO: Lieutenant, are we still not detecting life signs on the planet?  Can we even detect the away team, except for their combadges?
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
CO: I could, but I don't know what exactly it is that you want to accomplish. I could always use mine if the need arises ::and thinks to himself:: how fun it would be to make someone he knows "disappear"" for awhile
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
::moves over to OPS::  OPS: Maybe something in the atmosphere is interfering.  Perhaps some form of biological interference.  ::moves back to the rear to SCI 2::  Let me have a look at the biological scans.
SO_Lt_Silver says:
CO: No sir... only vegetation.
SO_Lt_Silver says:
CO: As for the away team, we still have a lock on them, but we cannot transport them.
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
MO: Could be sir, but the readings are very strange since we arrived here, for we couldn't get any readings of life forms.
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@Self: Curious. ::walks closer to what appear to be ruins::
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@:: Looks over Torn-Suu::
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
OPS: And your saying there are lifeforms down there?
Host Torn_Suu says:
@CEO: Can I ask how you have discovered us?  I believe that our technology should be sufficient to hide us from your sensor systems.
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
CO: I'll get on it. ::turns to get on the turbo lift and head to the transporter room::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
SO: But are we detecting their lifesigns, not just their combadge signatures?
SO_Lt_Silver says:
CO: Correct.  I am not reading the aliens however.
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
MO: Yes, sir. Our people and some aliens.
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
::hearing the CO and the SO:: CO/SO/OPS: Why are we detecting our away team but none of the other life form readings?
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
SO: Curious.  OPS: If you can discretely signal one of the away team officers, please ask for tricorder readings locally...
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
CO: Yes, sir
SO_Lt_Silver says:
:: Checks for the species in the data base::
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@Torn-Suu: A'm an engineer ,Ah di'not hav eprivy to how ya were located....Ah just know ya were...Ah am interested in your ship and it's abilities ta bounce off sensors
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
::Ewan enters the main transporter room:: TR_Chief: The captain would like for you to transporter room to set up an experiment with one of our transport testing devices.
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
*CEO*: Lt McGregor, could you send us your tricorder readings, sir?
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
::begins filtering through the biological scan logs of the surface::
Host Biib_Vida says:
@::steps in front of the FCO, barring her path:: FCO: You wish to know what this place is?
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@ ::Quietly listens as the CEO has taken the conversation.::
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@::Taps his combadge:: OPS: Aye sendin now
SO_Lt_Silver says:
CO: I do not have them in our data base.
Transporter_Chief says:
CIV: I'll get right on it. I think we can have something set-up in an hour or two.
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@Torn-Suu: If ah might ask sir, does that technology work well in space?
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
SO: Very curious.  A planet so close to our normal area of operations - either the native species has a way to avoid detection and has done so for as long as the Federation has been here, or they are non-native...
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
::gets the readings sent by the CEO:: CO: We got the readings, sir.
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@::stops:: Vida: Yes, I do. Those ruins look very old. Were they left behind by your species?
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@Torn-Suu: An ah guess the big question sir,If ya don't mind...Are ya known as a friendly folk
Host Torn_Suu says:
@CEO: I cannot share that information with you, it would serve you no purpose to know how our ship works
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@*CO*: From our doctors earlier comm, I am to understand that these people have returned to their ancient home.  So wherever they are now, they do not live here.  I can see Commander Shania has found some ruins to substantiate that.
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
CO/SO: Why have we never investigated the obvious fauna.  I find that hard to believe.  Is it just that recent perhaps?
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@:: Give a wry grin:: Torn-suu: Beggin your pardon sir.. A'm an engineer...Just curious mind ya.. Ah do understand though
Host Torn_Suu says:
@CEO: I believe we could be considered as friendly.  But then that depends on what your intentions are ::blinks::
Host Biib_Vida says:
@FCO: Long ago our species had a facility here, yes.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
:: Listens to his first officer ::  MO: Ah, I believe that is the answer - they have not been on the planet for some time.
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@Torn_Suu: Intentions...Well The Luna is an exploration vessel.. We intend nothin... Just curious is all
SO_Lt_Silver says:
MO: I have no answer to that.  I would have to do some research into past surveys of the area.
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
::taps his combadge:: *CO*: The transporter chief can have something for you in around an hour or two.
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@Vida: I see. And now you are coming back because...? ::trails off::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
*CIV*: An hour or two, Captain?
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@Torn-Suu: We are explorers...We search for new places and civilizations...In peace
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
*CIV*: What is the delay?
Host Torn_Suu says:
@::turns to the XO:: XO: You wish to know what we are doing here?
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@:: Looks at the XO and Torn::
Host Biib_Vida says:
@FCO: Because we are seeking the knowledge we have lost.
Host Torn_Suu says:
@CEO: We were once like you, long long ago.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@ Torn: I understand you are here to.... find your past?
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
::taps his combadge:: *CO*: Inexperience perhaps
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
::finds nothing unusual in the Biological scans except well near nothing!!!::  SO: I just found something rather odd in the Biological scan logs.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
*CIV*: Then perhaps you can ensure that he finds a more efficient way.
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@XO: Maybe we could help them sir...Maybe
SO_Lt_Silver says:
MO: And that would be?
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@Vida: Is there anything we can help you with in your search?
Host Torn_Suu says:
@XO: Yes, we are learning about our history, our race has fallen a long way
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@XO: Sort of a collaboration...sort o thing
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@Torn: Fallen... in what way?
Host Biib_Vida says:
@FCO: I do not know, how can you help?
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
OPS: Ensign, it seems you have a crewman in your department that could use some retraining.
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
SO: Sir, I'm sending Lt McGregor's tricorder readings to your console, sir
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
::taps his combadge:: *CO*: I can use mine and I don't need to set-up anything
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
CO: Yes, sir, I'll work on it, sir ::uh? my department?::
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
SO: Well....  why is it we can not detect anything on the surface except the fauna and our away team.  I'm not reading any contagions, bugs, the ship.  Nothing.  But there is obviously an alien vessel, alien life and I'm sure a whole wrack of insects and contagions of varying kinds.  ::looking at the SO questioningly::
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
::taps his combadge:: *CO*: But of course it'll only transport myself
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@ ::Shakes her head with a smile:: Torn: You are telling us many things that are pulling at our curiosity.  You were once like us... you have fallen and look to the past....  Might I suggest we take a seat and you could fill us in?
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
:: Is curious as to the issue ::  *CIV*: Get one of our test cylinders, set it on the pad, and transport it down to the shuttle's transporter.  Then have them attempt to transport it back up.
Host Torn_Suu says:
@XO: When our race was already old we were masters of an empire that you can barely imagine.  Our people ruled time as well as space, but all that is gone from us now, we have fallen to this ::motions slowly around him:: Echoes of our former lives
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
SO: Can we adjust our sensors to accommodate for some form of biological filter?  The XO's report did say the alien vessel had a biologically based hull
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@Vida: Well, you said you are looking for the knowledge of your ancestors.  Do you know how they stored it? Do you know what you have to look for? it
SO_Lt_Silver says:
SO: There was a race, that could... deflect sensor scans by the vary oils from their body.  Perhaps we are experiencing something similar?
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@ Torn: It is an old story.  What do you do now?  Your people that is?
SO_Lt_Silver says:
:: Considers:: MO: It is possible.  I will manipulate one of the sensor pallets.
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
::Ewan mulls over his SFI orders and thinks to slow the process::
Host Biib_Vida says:
@FCO: It is here ::indicates the ruins:: But it isn't stored, it is left.
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@Torn_suu: Forgive the intrusion Commander, Sir ah must have missed somthin,, Where have ya been for so long?
SO_Lt_Silver says:
:: Considers a moment and then pulls up a base line file, looks it over and then begins to make some minor adjustments.::
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@Vida: Left? I'm not sure I understand what you mean.
Host Torn_Suu says:
@XO: We are trying to learn how our race fell, so that we can prevent it from happening again.  We still have a long way to go however
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
::tries to think of some other reasons that would accommodate for why they can still detect their own crew on the surface::
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@Torn-Suu: Sir don't ya have memory banks ta store that information?
Host Biib_Vida says:
@FCO: It means that it wasn't stored because they didn't expect to need to store it
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@Torn: You do not know how?  That is never good, for just the reasons you have said
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
:: it's strange, he thinks, I've given this suggestion some time ago, of using the shuttle as a relay station...::
Host Torn_Suu says:
@CEO: We have ways of storing data yes... although "banks" is not a term I am familiar with
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
:: Checks in with the CIV again ::  *CIV*: Progress, Captain?  You should have been able to complete two cycles by now.
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@Torn_Suu: Forgive me...storage systems
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
::as to not to get the captain more suspicious than he already is, Ewan decides to send down the cylinder and has the chief send it down::
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@Vida: Ok, so you are essentially looking for anything your ancestors left behind in trying to piece together what happened to them.
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@Torn_Suu: Than with all due respect sir...Why did ya not store them away for safe keepin
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@Torn: I am still curious, what your people have been doing all this time... as well as where you are located.  The area we are in now is considered Federation space... a large grouping of people who work toward generally the same idea of peace.
Host Torn_Suu says:
@::blinks slowly at the XO:: XO: There is much we do not know about our past.  I must ask, will you allow us to take this information for ourselves?
SO_Lt_Silver says:
MO: I am sorry sir... not even with the adjustments am I picking up anything beyond the away team and the vegetation.
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
::scratches head::  SO: That's what I was afraid of.  I didn't think it was going to work because it wouldn't explain how we could still detect our own crew down there.  Hmmm....
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
*CIV*: Captain, have you tried alternate frequencies?
Host Torn_Suu says:
@CEO: I do not understand, we do store our information securely.
Host Biib_Vida says:
@FCO: This is correct yes
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@::Confused:: Torn: Why would I prevent it?  Perhaps we could help.
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
*ALL: It's complete, do whatever you want to do. I'm going back to sickbay, I'm too sick to continue
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
*CIV*: Complete, Captain?  Does it work, or no?
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
::taps his combadge:: *CO*: It works, have at it
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@Torn_Suu: Than Ah do not see the problem...sir.. Can you not just pull up your own data
Host Torn_Suu says:
@XO: We are aware of your organization, however it was not necessary to contact you, we believed we would not be detected
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
*CIV*: Thank you.  OPS: Please relay the coordinates of the shuttle to the away team and inform them we have two way beaming capability via that transport platform
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@Vida: Well, we could provide extra hands in your search.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@Torn: Well... actually, you were not... exactly.  Then you do not want others to know of your existence?  Are you xenophobic in some way?
Host Torn_Suu says:
@CEO: Ah, I understand now.  We cannot pull up information that we do not have, we lost almost all our knowledge and then did not grow for a very long time, when knowledge is not used it is inevitably lost
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
CO: It's hovering over them, sir. As it was impossible to find a landing area, we kept it nearby
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@Torn_Suu: Than your secure storage systems failed you?...With all due respect sir
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
OPS: Ah, then it would be nearly impossible for the team to get to the shuttle... unless they can climb trees.
SO_Lt_Silver says:
MO: It could still be some substance upon them or some reflecting device.
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
*XO*: Commander Singh, we have two way transport now, sir.
Host Biib_Vida says:
@FCO: That is a generous offer, but why would you help us?
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
OPS: Could you imagine the executive officer climbing a tree, Ensign?
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@*OPS*: Excellent.  Please beam aboard the CTO.
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
SO: Well... I'm at a loss.  Hmm... wasn't there a race from the Gamma Quadrant that had some sort of natural inhibitor of scans?
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@Vida: Because we wanna know what happened just as much as you do. That's what explorers do.
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
CO: No, sir. But the only place for it to land is near the alien vessel.
SO_Lt_Silver says:
MO: I must admit, I am not that familiar with Gamma Quadrant species without checking the data base.
Host Torn_Suu says:
@XO: We are not from this area of space, making alliances would only cause friction with our search.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
OPS: Which is several kilometers from their current position, correct?
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
CO: Yes, captain.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@Torn: Entering alien space would cause notice and questions as well.  However, if we can help you, I know I would like to.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
OPS: That is... unfortunate.  Please ensure the XO is aware of that.
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
CO: But as we have surpassed the interference, sir, using the signal from the shuttle to use our own signal won't be difficult.
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@:: Whispers to the XO: XO: Sir it would not have ta be an alliance of sorts...Just an agreement...a peaceful one
Host Torn_Suu says:
@::seems to be becoming agitated:: CEO: You know nothing of what you speak, if you had suffered the lost that we have you would have forgotten things too.
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
SO: Neither am I.  I just remember it from some medical report somewhere on the species...  Wait... it wasn't from the Gamma Quadrant... I think this report came from Beverly Crusher on the Enterprise-D!  ::tries to find an entry in the database::
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@*CO*: Sir... we basically have a people who have come to search their past.  I would love to help them if they would allow it, though that is not our orders.  How would you like us to proceed now?
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
CO: what I'm saying is, we could use the short distance transport to beam them to the shuttle and use the same beam to bring them aboard
Host Biib_Vida says:
@FCO: Yours is a very curious race, but if you found out what happened to us, what would you do with that knowledge?
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@Torn_Suu: Sir ah apologize for makin ya angry..Ah was only tryin ta help...A'm not in the habit of bringin out the Ire in folks
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@:: Looks at the engineer, quietly:: CEO: Alliance?  They do not live in our space and wish to be left alone.  That is their right... though it will nag at our curiosity.  Maybe if they could trust us they might allow us to get to know them.
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
CO: WE can have it anytime now.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
*XO*: If we left behind a small survey team, that might be possible.  However, I believe the Luna and Atlas should return to surveying the weapons platforms, in light of the tactical threat from the Synod.
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
*XO*: sorry, commander, we're experiencing some difficulties
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@*CO*: Understood.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@*OPS*: Difficulties?
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@XO: Aye sir.. So if we allow them ta look for their heritage while we watch from a distance...Just as a security measure ya understand...If we cannot read their readins than whats the harm...An Agreement
Host Torn_Suu says:
@::smiles warmly at the CEO:: CEO: I am sorry, it is a painful reality that we face, I understand your questions were not meant in any other way.
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
*XO*: Yes, sir, transport now is working only aboard the shuttle, but we can't find a landing zone
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
OPS: Ah.  If that's possible, then please recover the CTO.  MO: Doctor, I believe the executive officer indicated the CTO was unconscious, perhaps you could see to his health?
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@Vida: Learn from it. That's what you do. You learn about the past to avoid the mistakes in the future. Just like you will do I'm sure.
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
CO: We’re ready now, sir
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@Torn: We would love to stay and talk.  However, we have another assignment that needs to be seen to.  If we could leave behind a survey team to assist you as well as get to know each other...?
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
*XO*: Ready, sir. Beaming him up now!
MO_LtCmdr_Lynch says:
CO: Aye sir.  Is he in Sickbay?
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@*OPS*: Then transport the CTO to the shuttle.  And while you are at it, have them locate our CMO and beam him aboard as well.
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@Torn_Suu: A'm sorry if Ah offended you sir.. A'm just interested in your race, an would like to get to know more of you
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
*XO*: Yes, sir.
Host Torn_Suu says:
@::blinks:: XO: I do not believe that will be necessary, we have almost completed our gathering here.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@ :: Nods:: Torn: Then we will leave a team that will leave you alone and continue research of this unusual planet.
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
::engages transport, beaming CTO aboard the shuttle.::

@ACTION: From the ruins the FCO can hear what sounds like someone running frantically

Host Torn_Suu says:
@CEO: Perhaps in time you may.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@*CO*: Captain, if you could have a team put together to continue research of this planet... we could return for them at the end of our current assignment.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
:: Looks towards the MO, as if indicating that the CTO's location is in his hands ::
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@Self: What a bloody shame
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@::turns towards the sound:: Vida: What is that?
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
*XO*: Are you interesting in remaining, Commander?

@ACTION: As OPS initiates transport Torn Suu presses something on his arm and the CTO's body finally disappears in the familiar sparkle of a federation transporter beam

CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
:: Wishes he could stay::
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@ ::Smiles:: *CO*: I would love to stay if it were possible.
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
::CTO is beamed to sick bay::
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@::heads closer to the ruins:: Vida: Sounds like someone needs our help.

@ACTION: A Starfleet officer comes running out of the ruins and bumps straight into the FCO, his uniform is torn and he is covered in blood, most of which is probably his, he whimpers something and collapses to the ground

Host Biib_Vida says:
@FCO: I did not know any other of your species were on this moon.
FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@Vida: Neither did we!  ::kneels and feels for a pulse to see if the guy is still alive::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
:: Thinks for a moment ::  *XO*: I think we could come back for you.  Select your team, I'd like to depart in one half hour.  OPS: Signal the Atlas to our intentions, as well.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@ :: Her smile widens:: *CO*: Thank you sir.
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@XO: Commander, Excuse me sir...Are we stayin in the area awhile.. If so A'd like ta stay

@ACTION: The FCO doesn't recognize the officer on the ground, she can however feel a pulse, although a very weak one.  Further inspection of his wounds would seem to indicate that he has been attacked by something with claws

FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@::yells to the XO:: XO: You might wanna have a look at this.
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
CO: Immediately, sir :: signals the Atlas, telling them of the Luna's plans to leave in half an hour::
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@ ::Steps back to the others:: Torn: I and a team will be remaining behind to do research of this planet.  Our people will come back for us later.  We will stay out of your hair... :: looks at the bald pate::  I mean out of your way if that is what you prefer.
Host Torn_Suu says:
@::turns to see what the commotion is about behind him:: XO: I believe one of your officers has been injured.
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@CEO: I will be remaining on the planet, however, I believe while the ship can survive without their first officer, they would be hard pressed to do without their CEO, CMO and OPS.  However, if you would like to assign... ::looks a Torn::
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@ ::Follows Torn’s eyes and moves toward the area.::
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@All: What the Bloody hell
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@ ::Arriving:: OPS: Who is it?
CIV_Capt_MacPherson-Quest says:
::taps his combadge:: *CO*: We're ready to transport
XO_Cmdr_Singh says:
@*CO*: We may have another problem.
OPS_Ens_Mussambe says:
:: Informs Atlas we're leaving a team behind::
CEO_Lt_McGregor says:
@:: Stays close to Torn::

ACTION: The OPS receives a message back from the Atlas, informing the Luna that they cannot currently leave as they have lost contact with their Away Team

FCO_Cmdr_Shania says:
@Vida: Looks like he got attacked by an animal. Any ideas as to what that might be? We didn't detect any animals on this moon.
