Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
Captain's log: The Nighthawk has managed to recover Lieutenant Commander Monroe, he is currently in sickbay recovering from wounds he received.  We are currently heading back to Starbase 78, the Nighthawk has seen better days.  Our current orders are to head to dry dock for repair and shore leave...

Host Biishe says:
<<<<<<<<<< Down, out and ? >>>>>>>>>>

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
::In sickbay in her office, reading LtCmdr's Monroe's chart.  She is satisfied with the way he is healing.::

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
::sits at his console on the bridge::

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::sighs slightly as he finishes the last report on the hostages that had been saved::

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
::on the bridge in his chair looking out at the view screen as the stars fly by::

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
::scans surrounding space::

Host AFCO_Flight says:
::taps the helm controls and turns to look at the Captain:: CO: Sir, we should be arriving at Starbase 78 in ten standard minutes.

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
::Stands up and stretches for a moment, the placing the report onto her desk she exits into the man sickbay.  A little busy for her tastes but at least they were able to save some of the hostages.::  Tessie:  Tessie has V been in today?

Tessie says:
::Looking up from a patient.:: CMO:  Not today he hasn't and I have a bone to pick with him.  He has managed to sneak in here without a hello to me what so ever... I'm chopping him off at the kneecaps that sod.

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
AFCO: Excellent... OPS: Lieutenant hail Starbase 78 and request permission to dock

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::gets up and walks over to the window, staring at the stars::

Orderly says:
::Hands Nita a new padd.::

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
CO: Aye Sir.

AFCO_Flight says:
::checks the engine status and prepares to drop to impluse:: Self: It will be nice to be home for a while. ::sighs and thinks about some shore leave::

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
::Grins as she takes the padd.:: Tessie:  He is building up anticipation my friend.  But if you must harm him.... well remember you fix what you break.  ::Frowns as she reads the Padd.::
OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
COM: Starbase 78: Starbase 78 Control, this is the USS Nighthawk, Inbound on vector 672.  Permission to dock please.

AFCO_Flight says:
CO: Coming out of warp in five minutes in preparation for docking procedures.

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
::She begins walking.:: Tessie:  Where are Adams, T'Loraka and Missan bedded down at?

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
CO: Sir, I am receiving no communications from Starbase 78.  Now scanning normal Subspace channels.

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::smiles to himself and exits his office, walking to short distance to sickbay::

Tessie says:
CMO:  We've got them in isolation right at the moment till the tests come back.  We aren't sure what is wrong with them.  ::Sees Nita hold up the Padd.::

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
AFCO: Acknowledged...  ::gives the OPS a questioned look:: OPS: Try them again

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
Tessie:  Got the tests back, inconclusive. Interesting...  Looks like we may have a mystery on our hands and three of them at once.

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::walks into sickbay as the doors whoosh open in front of him::

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
CO: I read none of the normal communications on Starbase 78's normal channels.

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
COM: Starbase 78: Starbase 78, this is the USS Nighthawk.  Respond please.

Host Biishe says:
Scenery:  The station slowly grows larger on the view screen, but all is dark.  There are no welcoming lights, no running lights, no ships in docking.

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
CMO/Tessie: Morning ladies. Fine day, isn't it?

AFCO_Flight says:
::looks at OPS and then looks at the traffic in the sector::

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
Tessie:  Have Nicholas starting looking for anything unusual. No matter how small.  ::Turns as another person enters sickbay.::

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
::Scans for energy signatures and life forms aboard the Starbase::

Tessie says:
CNS: V!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  ::Throws herself at him.::  I've got a bone to pick with you Mister....

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
AFCO: Double check were at the right coordinates

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
CNS:  Hey V.  Looks like you're just on time.  Can you take a look at something for me?

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
::knows that order was a silly one, but must be ruled out::

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::smiles at Tessie:: Tessie: Hello gorgeous. Missed me? ::nods at Nita:: CMO: Sure. What's the problem. ::frowns slightly and shakes his head::

AFCO_Flight says:
CO: Sir, something very unusual on the navigational scans. No other ship traffic in this entire sector. There should be at least a few freighters.

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
CO: I read some life forms, and energy of a type that I do not recognize.  Searching federation 
database.  ::taps at his console::

AFCO_Flight says:
CO: And these are the correct coordinates.

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
::Hands V, the PADD she just received.:: CNS:  I've got some sick patients and no idea why.  Puzzling.

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::takes the PADD and reads it, glancing at Tessie and Anita every now and again::

Tessie says:
CNS:  Well you must come over to dinner with Nicholas and I.  ::Smiles Slyly.::  We got news for you.

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
OPS: What's the status of life support on the Starbase?

AFCO_Flight says:
::double checks the readings again and shakes her head::

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
CO: Life support is functional Sir.

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::looks up from the PADD:: Tessie: Good news I hope... ::frowns again:: Are you all right? I can't read anything from you, not even a flicker of emotion.

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
::Heads for the isolation room.::

AFCO_Flight says:
CO: Dropping to impulse now. ::taps the console:: Shall I hold here sir?

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::reads the PADD again:: CMO: You think I can tell you why they are sick?

Tessie says:
CNS: I'm better then all right. ::Grins::  I've finally figured out how to block you!!  Now how did I do that?  ::Frowns::

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
::Looks back.:: CNS:  No, but two heads are better then one.

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
CO: I am only reading multiphasic energy on the Starbase sir.  Not standard Starfleet power.

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
AFCO: No...go ahead and dock but be ready for an emergency break away.

AFCO_Flight says:
::nods:: CO: Aye sir.

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::looks at Anita:: CMO: Anita... I can't get a flicker of emotion off you or Tessie... in fact, no one on this ship. And I'm always aware of everybody on a ship this small.

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
*CMO*: Doctor Santiago...

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
Tessie: I'm not sure... ::goes pale, his knees buckling slightly:: T o o  m u c h!

AFCO_Flight says:
::slows to thrusters and moves the Nighthawk slowly to the docking port trying to use the Hawk's running lights for direction::

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
::Turns and runs to V.::  Tessie:  Get him up on the bio bed now!

AFCO_Flight says:
CO: Sir, I've located the docking port airlock, moving the Nighthawk into position.

Tessie says:
::Grabs his legs as Nita grabs his shoulders.  Two orderlies move in to help.::

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::curls into fetal position:: CMO/Tessie: Can't... block... strange... images... thoughts... ouch.

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
::Grabs her tricorder and begins scanning.::

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
::Scans the Starbase, all instruments, active and passive scans::

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
::nods to the AFCO:: OPS: Have there been any distress signals sent from the Starbase?

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::gasps in surprise, touching his head:: CMO: Its all gone again.... everything.

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
::Growls at the readings.:: CNS:  V, listen to my.. I'm going to give you an injection.  Its going to block any telepathic ....... ::Stops suddenly.:: What do you mean gone?

AFCO_Flight says:
::tries to lock onto the docking ring and does so finally but does not sense the clank of the clamps:: CO: Captain, this dock will not be a secure lock. The docking clamps have not engaged.

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
CMO: Just what I said... it’s gone - all of you. It’s so silent I can hear myself think.

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
::taps his commbadge:: *CMO*: Doctor Santiago...come in please

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
CNS:  Physically I can find nothing wrong with you... ::Hears the Capt.::

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
AFCO: It'll have to do...

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
*CO*:  Capt, Santiago here.

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
*CMO*: We've got a problem...prepare for an away team.  Bring some medical supplies....Ohh and bring Lt Cmdr Varesh along with you

AFCO_Flight says:
::watches the lights on the panel go to an amber color instead of the usual green::

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
CO: Sir, now that we are docked, I can pick up the normal running sounds of a Starbase.  If we were receiving communications, I would say that nothing was wrong.

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
*CO*:  I'm relieving Cmdr Varesh of duty Sir.. something is wrong and I can't find the source.  Right now he has lost all his telepathic/empathic abilities.   That was after being bombarded with unusual images.

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
*CO*:  Sir, I also have some patients down here with unexplained illnesses.  I can't seem to find the cause and all the tests have come back inconclusive.

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::frowns at the words "relieving of duty" but says nothing.::

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
*CMO*: Understood you can brief me on it later...report to the airlock as soon as possible

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
::Takes a deep breath.:: *CO*:  Aye Sir, I'm on my way.

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
::turns back to V.::  CNS:  Do you think you can stand Tessie's company for a bit?

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
OPS: Well Lieutenant let's go find out what is wrong!

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::opens his mouth to say something, but his eyes go blank as the strange images and thoughts bombard him again::

AFCO_Flight says:
CO: Thrusters now at station keeping.

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
CO: Aye Sir.  ::Gathers his spare tricorder, phaser, and checks that his throwing stars are in place and joins the CO::

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
::Sees V act strange again and presses the hypospray against his neck.::  CNS:  That should block your telepathic center.

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
AFCO: You have the bridge...

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
::looks at Tessie as one of the Orderly's brings her away med kit.::

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
::stands up from his chair and walks towards the corridor surrounding the bridge with Lieutenant Lessing::

AFCO_Flight says:
:;turns to the Captain:: CO: Yes sir. ::smiles to herself:: Self: First day on Alpha shift and I get the bridge. This should be fun.

Tessie says:
CMO:  Nita you better get going before the Capt throws you in the brig for disobeying an order.  V, is in good hands.  Don't worry, I'll look after him.

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::blinks:: CMO: Huh?

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
::Looks unsure for a moment.:: Tessie:  You better...

AFCO_Flight says:
::secures the helm station and then walks to the center of the bridge behind the Captain's chair::

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
CNS:  V, I'm leaving you in Tessie's care.  I have to go to the station. I need you to tell her what you were seeing so she can record it and try to figure out what is going on.  I've given you something that should block any intrusion into your head.

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
CMO: Ok... get going, I'll be fine.

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
::steps into the TurboLift:: TL: Airlock...  OPS: Any ideas on what is going on?

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
::With one last look she hurries out of sickbay.::

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
::She heads for the nearest TL and enters.:: Computer:  Airlock.

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
CO: Between the lack of communication and the non-standard energy signals, I would say something very disturbing.  Other than that, no idea.  I don't have enough information to work with as yet, Sir.  ::smiles apologetically::

Tessie says:
::Leans over the biobed.:: CNS: Ok handsome, tell me what is going on in that head of yours.

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::looks at Tessie:: Tessie: Its difficult to explain what it is... its so totally alien I can't describe it.

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
::nods:: OPS: We'll find out soon enough

AFCO_Flight says:
::moves to the operations console and tries to get an open channel to the base::

Tessie says:
CNS:  Is it hostile?

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
::nods in agreement with the CO::

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
::Feels the TL stop and she exits.. she makes her way to the airlock and waits for the Capt.::

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
Tessie: I can't tell... the frame of reference is so alien. All I know is one moment I'm a total deadhead and the next I can hear, see and feel everything from what sometimes feel like a multitude of minds - but I could be wrong.

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
::steps out of the TL as it stops and walks to the airlock::

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
::Follows the CO::

AFCO_Flight says:
::taps the panel again and again: COM:SB78: Starbase, this is the USS Nighthawk, come in please. ::hears only static and whines from the channel::

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
::Scans the other side of the airlock for atmosphere and so forth::

Tessie says:
::Slowly nods.::  CNS:  Ok, I'm going to do a molecular scan of you concentrating on your head.  I'm going to need you to lay still.

AFCO_Flight says:
::wishes the Hawk could switch to station power::

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
CO: The atmosphere on the Starbase is breathable.

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::sighs and remains still:: Tessie: You're the doctor.

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
::Sees the Capt and Lessing.::  CO:  Capt, Lt.

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
CMO: Doctor...are you ready?

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
CMO: Dr.  ::nods in greeting::

Tessie says:
::Activates the scanning equipment.  Watches as V is enclosed.::

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
CO:  Ready as I'll ever be.

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
::turns to OPS and nods indicating to open the airlock doors::

Security says:
::Stands at attention and salutes the captain and his group as they pass by, logging them off the ship.::

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
::Types in the command to open the airlock::

Host Biishe says:
ACTION:  The airlock opens with a whoosh of air exiting.

AFCO_Flight says:
::hits her commbadge::*CEO*: Engineering maintain us on ship's power for the time being. There appears to be a problem with the station's systems at the moment. Stand by for any changes.

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::closes his eyes as the scanning happens::

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
::Peers into the Starbase, wondering what he will see::

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
@::walks onto the Starbase and looks around:: CMO/OPS: Let's get to bridge and see if we can restore power...

Tessie says:
CNS:  This shouldn't take too long.  Why don't you try to cop some Z's while we are waiting.

Host Biishe says:
Scenery:  Walking and peering out the docking ring, they walk into the familiar waiting area.  There are a variety of species, the main one being tall, thin, and bluish tinge to their skin.  None of these people are located within the federation database.  People turn and stare at the Starfleet members, but none comes near...

Host Biishe says:
Scenery:  Whispers are heard, but they make no sense. There is a sort of ethereal quality to the lighting source.

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
@*AFCO*: Maintain a positive transporter lock on us at all times, please.

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
@::Pulls out her tricorder and begins scanning.::  CO:  I suggest we wait for a moment... I can't make out whom this species is.

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
@CO: They seem to be able to see us, shall we try and speak to one of them?

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
Tessie: Because I don't sleep on duty. ::smiles at her::

AFCO_Flight says:
*OPS*: Already on it sir. Good luck.

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
@*AFCO*: Thank you.

Tessie says:
::Grins:: CNS:  You're not on duty my friend.  Don't make the Dr Jykel side of my personality come out Cmdr.

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
@::nods at the OPS:: OPS: Good idea

AFCO_Flight says:
::nods to the replacement OPS officer to maintain the lock at all times::

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
@::Taps his tricorder as the images on it start fading under a power drain:: CO:  Sir, our instruments are being drained of their power.

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
Tessie: Regardless of what the pacifist gypsy said - I can help you sort out what's going on.

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
@CO:  Now this is interesting.....  I'm reading 3 hearts... kidney... they have an odd number of ribs.. ::Taps her tricorder::  9....  ::Growls::  I'm loosing power here.

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
@::Walks over to a random alien:: Alien: Greetings.  What is this place?

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
@::frowns not liking or understanding their current situation::

AFCO_Flight says:
::walks to the Captain's chair and runs her fingers along the arm:: Self: I wonder, should I?

Tessie says:
CNS:  That pacifist Gypsy would skin us both alive and you know it.  ::Grins:: But then again, I'm not her... Ok, give it another few moments and you can get up.

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
@CO: Our universal translators do not seem to work.  And yet, everything seems to be in the correct place.

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
@CO:  I'm wondering if these were the aliens that Varesh was seeing.

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
Tessie: Good. I'll take Anita's wrath. I have a feeling that this is going to be important.

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
@CO: I might have more luck with ships systems than with our personal equipment.

AFCO_Flight says:
::slips quietly into the Captain's big chair and settles back:: Self: Ooo this is nice.

Host Biishe says:
ACTION:  The AFCO runs her fingers along one of the buttons and a light begins to blink.

Tessie says:
CNS:  Even if it's not, I can always say you hit me on the head with your club and dragged me back to your cave.

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
@CMO/OPS: Let's find a console...our translators might not work, but perhaps the translators built into the Starbase computer still do

AFCO_Flight says:
:;pulls her hand back:: Self: Ut oh, what is that?

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::grins:: Tessie: I'm Betazoid, not Neanderthal human. ::puts on a lofty expression::

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
@CO:  I'm no engineer, but wouldn't the power drain we are experiencing affect the station too.

Tessie says:
::Laughs:: CNS:  Yeah right.

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
@CO: Agreed, and I think finding the bridge would also be a good idea.  As I remember its, ten decks up and slightly off that way. ::points::

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
@CMO: The station is not running under Starfleet standard power.

AFCO_Flight says:
::tries to cover the button with her arm hoping no one noticed::

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
Tessie: So are you done yet?

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
@CMO: Let's find out...  ::walks over to the nearest console and tries to call up some information::

Host Biishe says:
ACTION:  The smell of coffee wafts onto the bridge with the sound of the captain’s ready room door opening and closing.

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
@::Does some more scanning of the station, checking that turbo lifts and so on are still in the same place he left them last time he was here::

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
@CO:  I'd actually like to get to sickbay Sir.

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
@::Peers over the CO's shoulder while doing his scans::

AFCO_Flight says:
::sniffs a delicious aroma settling across the bridge:: Self: Ooo something smells good. ::looks around for the source::

Tessie says:
::Looks at the readings.::  CNS:  Ok done.  Let me run these through the computer and see what we get.  You can sit up now.

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
@CO: The architecture of the station is exactly as I remember it.  The people, the energy systems.  Those are the difference.  You having any luck with the console Sir?

Host Biishe says:
ACTION:  A large burley humanoid (the kind you don't want to meet late at night in dark alley) shows up.  His eyes trained on the AT.

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::sits up as the clamshell opens up and swings his legs off the bed::

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
@::continues tapping the console looking for something he recognizes::

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
@::spots the approaching humanoid:: Humanoid: Greetings.  What is this place?

Yeoman says:
::sees a rather striking young woman approaching her with a tray a steaming cup of coffee in the center:: AFCO: Your coffee ma'am.

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::gets up and walks over to where Tessie is tapping on a console:: Tessie: Am I sane? ::smiles::

Tessie says:
::Smiles:: CNS:  You mean now? ::Evil grin::  You were never sane my friend.

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
@::turns around and looks at the OPS and CMO:: OPS/CMO: Nothing...

Host Gar`th says:
@::Looks down at OPS politely::

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
@Gar'th: Do you understand me?

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
@::Scans the humanoid::

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::chuckles at the response to their old argument:: Tessie: Goes with the job. ::looks at the console:: Anything?

AFCO_Flight says:
::looks surprised:: Yeoman: I didn't order coffee.

Host Gar`th says:
@::Continues to look on with a patient, but blank look::

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
@CMO: He doesn't understand me....

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
@::points to self:: Gar'th: Aleister.

Tessie says:
CNS:  It's going to take a couple hours.  So what do you want to do?  Take a look at those patients in isolation?  What is happening with them could be the same thing with you.

Yeoman says:
AFCO: Yes you did ma'am. ::points to the blinking light under Flight's arm and then turns it off::

AFCO_Flight says:
::can feel her face flush red:: Yeoman: Sorry about that. I must have hit it accidentally.

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
@OPS:  I'm not surprised... for a big man, he certainly has a small brain...  He may not process language.. they may be completely telepathic.  Either way I wouldn't want to meet him in a dark alley.

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
@::scans for something similar to communication channels::

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
Tessie: I'll take a look at them. Go through the ship roster and check with any other telepaths if they are experiencing the same thing. I'll contact Aaron myself.

Yeoman says:
AFCO: Understandable ma'am. Captain Anderson does that lot. ::smiles and offers Flight the cup::

Tessie says:
CNS:  Ok.. I'll get on it.  ::Goes into Nita's office and brings up the ships roster.::  CNS:  Varesh!!  I forgot.  Aaron is the fourth one in the isolation room.

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
@OPS: Let's try some sign language...  ::looks at Gar'th and starts pointing and making body movements::  Where  ::shrugs:: is Admiral Harlan? ::points at his pips and then salutes::

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
@CMO: Agreed on the dark alley front.  The telepathy aspect might explain Varesh's collapse.

Host Gar`th says:
@::At the captain’s sudden movement, his hand goes to his weapon, staying there a moment as he realizes the actions were not hostile.::

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
@OPS:  It could, but Varesh should be able to handle it.  The way he was describing what happened was different some how.

AFCO_Flight says:
::takes the cup timidly and smiles:: Yeoman: Thank you Miss ?.....I'm sorry I didn't catch your name.

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::frowns:: Tessie: I wonder why his name wasn't on that list on the PADD. ::picks it up from the floor where he had dropped it and scans it again:: Oh, I didn't scroll down far enough. I'll go check now.

Host Gar`th says:
@::After a moment he taps his comm badge and speaks a rather musical language.  Waits and then nods his head, turning to look back at the group before him.::

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
@CMO: I'd say he is intelligent, reason triumphed over instinct there.

Tessie says:
CNS:  I'll be in Nita's office.

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
@::raises both of his hands to show that he is not hostile and points a finger at himself::  Gar'th: Captain Anderson..  ::points his finger at Gar'th::

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
Tessie: Take your time and be thorough. ::exits sickbay and walks a few doors down the corridor to the isolation rooms::

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
@ OPS:  Possibly or just well trained.   Small brain doesn't necessarily mean non intelligent.

Yeoman says:
AFCO: Wantz ma'am, Yeoman first class Plenty Wantz. ::puts the tray to her side and moves back two steps::

Host Gar`th says:
@::Shakes his head and turns around, using a following motion to the group.::

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
@CO, CMO: I think he wants us to follow him.  Let me check that the Nighthawk still has a transporter lock on us first.

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
@*AFCO*: Lessing here.  Please notify us if the Transporter lock degrades at any time.

AFCO_Flight says:
::smiles:: Yeoman: Well I can see that Captain Anderson gets all his Wanz met. :;giggles slightly::

CNS_LtCmdr_Varesh says:
::enters the isolation ward and walks to the room where Aaron is. Taps a few controls on the wall panel and reads the information::

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
@::nods to OPS but starts to follow Gar'th::

AFCO_Flight says:
*OPS*: Yes Lt. will do.

CMO_LtCmdr_Santiago says:
@CO:  Following him, do you think that is a wise idea, especially without any security escort?

Host Gar`th says:
@::With surprisingly graceful movements, he starts walking from the group, fully expecting them to follow him to the turbo lift.::

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
@CO, CMO: Sir, Ma'am, The transporter lock on us is weak.  I would suggest we head back to the 'Hawk and try and establish communications from there.

AFCO_Flight says:
::sees Plenty roll her eyes:: Yeoman: I guess you get that all the time don't you?

Host CO_Capt_Anderson says:
@CMO/OPS: If anybody has a better suggestion to find out what is going on here, I'm all ears?

@OPS/CMO: Perhaps...I'll understand if you wish to stay here.  But I'm following our rather large friend here.  ::follows Gar'th into the turbo lift::  I want to know what has happened here

OPS_Lt_Lessing says:
@CO: I'm with you Sir.  ::smiles:: Someone has to go with you, or our XO will shoot us!
