Guest Starring: 

 kate as FCO_Jones.
Jan as SO_Tribble.

  Host CO_O`Dunn says:
Captain's Log, Stardate 10306.21...the situation only gets worse. There are over a dozen rightfully angry representatives of the H'fltz targeting the Pendragon.

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
I'm still trying to use diplomacy and calm them down. Hopefully I won't have to cut the Federation's losses and run, but it doesn't look promising.

Host Cat says:

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
OPS: Any response yet?

CNS_Luchena says:
::entering a turbo lift on deck 2::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::looks at the CO:: CO:  No, Sir.  I'm continuing to hail on all frequencies.

CTO_Hull says:
::walks onto the bridge from the TL::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
OPS: Send them the doctor's report. Force it through their comm system if you have to. Maybe that will get their attention.

XO_Rofax says:
::seated in his chair, reading over the autopsy reports just filed by the CMO::

CNS_Luchena says:
TL:  Deck 7

CTO_Hull says:
::logs onto his tactical console, immediately reads the CMO's autopsy report::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::nods:: CO:  Sending the report now.  ::sends the report to the H'fltz vessels on every channel to make sure they got it::

Host Cat says:
Action: The ships remain locked in position...as unmoving as a violently motionless box.

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::stands violently motionless, thinking::

CMO_Shiar says:
:: takes off apron type thing and leaves autopsy room::

XO_Rofax says:
CTO: If you have a moment.....  I have a request.....

CTO_Hull says:
XO: Sir, I have a federation shuttle on LRS on course for the ship::

CNS_Luchena says:
::arrives on Deck 7 and heads to sickbay::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CO:  File sent.  They have enough copies of it to fill a book.

CTO_Hull says:
XO: Yes sir?

Host Cat says:
Action: The counselor is looking a little worse for wear. His uniform is torn in places, revealing bloody scratches, his usually neat hair is tousled and messed.

EO_Tomari says:
::begins making his way to the bridge with orders in hand::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
OPS: If they don't respond shortly, send it again. We'll flood their comm buffers until they pay attention.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::grins:: Yes Sir!

XO_Rofax says:
::crosses to the CTO::  CTO: In a moment.   We weren't expecting a shuttle?  Hail them.

CMO_Shiar says:
*XO*: I’m not getting anything new down here. do you want me to continue?

CNS_Luchena says:
::enters sickbay::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::sets the hail on a rotation and continues to send hail after hail after hail... ::

CNS_Luchena says:
::looks for a replicator::

CMO_Shiar says:
:: hears someone enter sickbay but doesn't look:: CNS: how can I help?

XO_Rofax says:
*CMO* Please do.  Seal the records as well as the bodies.  I believe they have just become evidence and they will not be released until matters are resolved.  Post a security detail at the entrance to the morgue and a second inside.

CTO_Hull says:
COMM: Shuttle: Shuttle, this is the USS Pendragon, identify, you are not transmitting identifiers

CMO_Shiar says:
*XO*: aye sir

CNS_Luchena says:
CMO:  I was umm... wrestling with one of the Macoo.  Can I use your replicator for a new uniform?

FCO_Jones says:
::Sitting at the flight controls::

CMO_Shiar says:
CNS: go ahead  :: points to a replicator::  why come here for that?

CTO_Hull says:
XO: Sir, this is a Federation shuttle, by configuration

EO_Tomari says:
*CTO*: <pilot> This is the shuttle Rutlug. I'm carrying a passenger of yours.

CMO_Shiar says:
:: turns to look at the CNS::

CNS_Luchena says:
CMO:  I've got some cuts and bites.  They're not very deep.

Host Cat says:
Action: One of the H'fltz ships moves in to the path of the shuttle.

XO_Rofax says:
::stands near the TAC console awaiting a response::  CTO: Are we expecting someone?  ::finds his padd with newest crew deployments::

CTO_Hull says:
COM: Rutlug: Identify your passenger,

CMO_Shiar says:
CNS: wrestling hey...

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CO:  Sir, one of the H'fltz ships is attempting to block the shuttle ...

CNS_Luchena says:
::grins::  CMO:  Absolutely Doc.

EO_Tomari says:
::speaks up:: *CTO*: Lt JG Rajel Tomari, sir.

CTO_Hull says:
XO: Sir, we will need to intercede, that shuttle is no match for the H'fltz ships

EO_Tomari says:
@<pilot> ::begins evasive maneuvers::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
OPS: Advise they withdraw to a safe distance until we calm the situation.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::sends the message::

CNS_Luchena says:
::peels off the top of his uniform and walks to the replicator::

XO_Rofax says:
CTO: Open a channel to the H'fltz vessels.

CTO_Hull says:
COM: Rutlug: Be advised we are in hostile environment, stand clear until we solve this problem

EO_Tomari says:
*CTO*: Understood. Pilot, take us to a safe distance.

CMO_Shiar says:
CNS: you should be more careful when you 'wrestle'

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
OPS: Still nothing?

CTO_Hull says:
OPS: The shuttle is moving off, I'm maintaining a sensor lock

CMO_Shiar says:
*CTO*: could you send 2 tac officers to sickbay please?

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::shakes her head:: CO:  Afraid not, Sir.

CNS_Luchena says:
CMO:  You know what cats are like.  One minute they are purring and the next they are attacking.

CTO_Hull says:
*CMO*: They are on the way, problem?

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CO:  And still no indication they received the report.

CTO_Hull says:
*<Security>*: Two security officers are needed in Sickbay

CMO_Shiar says:
*CTO*: no, to secure the bodies

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
OPS: I see. Do they still have comm buffer stack left? If so, why? ::smiles::

CTO_Hull says:
*CMO*: Acknowledged Doctor

CMO_Shiar says:
*CTO*: thank you

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::chuckles:: CO:  Barely.    They must have received several thousand copies of the report, not to mention hundreds of hails ...

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
OPS: Well, if thousands don't get their attention, try millions. ::smiles even more broadly::

XO_Rofax says:
::sounds grumpy as Zax would on a no-chocolate day::  COMM: H'fltz: This is Cmdr Rofax, Executive Officer of the USS Pendragon.  Stand down and allow our shuttle to pass or we will consider your resistance an act of aggression against the Federation.  You have 60 seconds.

CMO_Shiar says:
CNS: well, I must get back to staring at the insides of those birds.  :: puts on clean medical tunic thing and walks back into the autopsy room::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::grins:: CO:  You got it, Sir.

CTO_Hull says:
::places the phasers on hot standby::

CMO_Shiar says:
:: stops:: CNS: 1 more thing...

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::eyes Rofax:: XO: I certainly hope you're bluffing. We're in enough hot water with the H'fltz at the moment.

CNS_Luchena says:
CMO:  What's that?

FCO_Jones says:
::Not being used, stands, and moves around the bridge::

XO_Rofax says:
CTO: First sign of trouble disable the lead ship's phaser array.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::sends the report again and again until they literally cannot receive any more:: CO:  Sir, I can't send anymore without overloading their comm system.

CMO_Shiar says:
CNS: do you mind if I take a sample from one of those bites?

Host Cat says:
Action: The one ship moves back.....slightly!

CTO_Hull says:
XO: They are already targeted Commander

XO_Rofax says:
CO: As do I Captain.  We need something to break however.

CNS_Luchena says:
CMO:  Only if you promise to clean and dress them while your at it. ::grins::

XO_Rofax says:
::nods to the CTO::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CO:  Sir, one ship has backed off very slightly ...

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
XO/CTO: We will not fire the first shot. And probably not the second, either. No fire until I say otherwise.

CMO_Shiar says:
:: moves in with a swab and takes a sample::  CNS: you sure you don't want the marks?

CTO_Hull says:
CO: Understood Captain

XO_Rofax says:
::allows himself a small sigh of relief::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
OPS: If that's what it takes. pick a ship and overload its comm system with it. Then another.

FCO_Jones says:
:: Moves over to a console, and does a bit of work::

CTO_Hull says:
::Maintains sensor-targeting lock::

CNS_Luchena says:
CMO:  Please get rid of them.  David will kill me.

Host Cat says:
Action: The Vulcan pilot transports the new EO safely on board.

XO_Rofax says:
CO: Captain?  Permission to speak with the Macoo Delegates?

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::picks the ship closest ship and sends until its system is overloaded::

CMO_Shiar says:
CNS: Nurse Portman over there will sort you out, I need to get back to the autopsy  :: heads into autopsy room::

EO_Tomari says:
::materializes in transporter room one and makes his way to the bridge::

CNS_Luchena says:
CMO:  Thanks Doc.  ::sits on a biobed while Natalie cleans his wounds::

Host Tailea says:
::stretches lazily and licks the blood off of her lips.::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
XO: Granted. But remember, Commander....diplomacy? ::smiles::

FCO_Jones says:
:: Enters a few commands, then heads back to take his seat::

CTO_Hull says:
XO: Sir, EO Tomari is aboard, the shuttle just transported him

XO_Rofax says:
CO: Understood Captain.  ::pauses before leaving::  This means I can't toss 'em in the brig and sort it out later does it?  ::grins and moves to the TL::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::grins at Rofax::

EO_Tomari says:
::enters the bridge and walks up to the captain:: CO: Lt Jg Rajel Tomari, reporting for duty, sir.

CNS_Luchena says:
::finishes changing his clothes::

XO_Rofax says:
CTO: Very good.  Have him report to the bridge immediately::

Host Tailea says:
::is thinking that Betazoids taste rather like chickla.::

EO_Tomari says:
::holds out his orders::

CTO_Hull says:
*EO*: Mr. Tomari, welcome aboard, report to the bridge immediately, report to the First Officer

CMO_Shiar says:
:: enters the samples into toxicology then makes a mould of some wounds::  Dr. Nick: teeth marks are like finger prints you know

FCO_Jones says:
::Looks through a few files on his console, trying to keep busy::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::nods:: EO: Pleased to meet you. Since we're at alert, you'd best report to engineering. The CEO will be needing you. Welcome aboard. ::shakes his hand quickly, then turns back to the screen::

XO_Rofax says:
::exits the TL onto Deck Two and makes for the VIP quarters::

CNS_Luchena says:
::leaves sickbay::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CO:  Still no response to hails or the report, Sir.  I've already overloaded two ships ... if this keeps going we will have no way to contact them ...

SO_Tribble says:
::Takes science station::

FCO_Jones says:
::Looks up from his console, and looks around the bridge::

CNS_Luchena says:
::enters turbo lift::

CNS_Luchena says:
TL:  Deck 1

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
OPS: Just make sure you leave one. Offer to let them examine the evidence themselves. And ask them if they normally send clones on diplomatic missions, anyway.

EO_Tomari says:
::heads to engineering::

XO_Rofax says:
::presses the button on Tailea's door::

CNS_Luchena says:
::enters the bridge::

CNS_Luchena says:
::slips unobtrusively across the bridge and into his chair::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::sends the offer to examine the evidence and asks the clone question::

FCO_Jones says:
::After a good look around the bridge, returns to reading his console::

SO_Tribble says:
CNS: How are you?

Host Tailea says:
::looks up lazily::

Host Tailea says:
XO: Come in.......

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
FCO: I don't suppose you've figured out a good evasive to get us out of this if necessary?'

CNS_Luchena says:
SO:  Great.  How are you?  ::looks at the SO::

EO_Tomari says:
::enters engineering and looks for the CEO::

SO_Tribble says:
CNS: Good.

XO_Rofax says:
::enters Tailea's quarters::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
CNS: Counselor, good to see you. Any insight into our guests that you can share with me?

CTO_Hull says:
CO: Captain, I've made a study on the transporter signal from the Macoos quarters, ...your not going to like this...

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::sighs:: CTO: I figured...give it to me.

Host Tailea says:
::blinks her eyes and eyes the humanoid rather hungrily, a small growl escaping from her lips.::

CNS_Luchena says:
CO:  I've just spent an hour with one of the Macoo, Captain.  They are capable of savagery, but only on an impulse.  They wouldn't plan something like this, in my opinion.

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::nods at Mikal's statement, bracing for more bad news from Hull::

EO_Tomari says:
Self: hmm... the chief's not here... probably busy ::walks over to the primary display and calls up a list of past due diagnostics::

CTO_Hull says:
CO: The transport was made internally,...and it originated......from the bridge

FCO_Jones says:
::Gives a little chuckle and coughs to clear his throat::

CNS_Luchena says:
::really enjoys his work some days::

Host Tailea says:
XO: So...are you desert? ::grins::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::freezes, almost like a little something has snapped in her brain::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::turns:: CTO:  What?  ::checks the logs herself::

CNS_Luchena says:
::looks over at Kerina::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::speaks with an eerie calmness:: CTO: You're right. I don't like that.

XO_Rofax says:
::locks onto the feline's eyes and ~~~ ::feels:: ~~~ her out::   Tailea:  Cmdr Rofax, Executive Officer.  ::pauses::  It is an honor to meet you.

CTO_Hull says:
::stands assured that the information is confirmed::

CNS_Luchena says:
CTO:  It must be a false trail.

CMO_Shiar says:
:: still waiting on toxicology results::

SO_Tribble says:
::checking the latest data on the situation::

Host Tailea says:
Action: The other Macoo begin to circle the XO and rub against him.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CTO:  Do we know when transport occurred?

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::turns very slowly to face Hull, eyes afire, but nothing else physically betraying her thoughts:: CTO: Who?

CTO_Hull says:
CNS: I've ran security checks on the log, it is confirmed

CNS_Luchena says:
CTO:  Which console?  ::looks around the bridge::

CTO_Hull says:
OPS: According to the ships internal sensor log, the transport was at 10306.14.21:30

XO_Rofax says:
::maintains ground and continues to focus on Tailea::  Tailea:  What are you waiting for?

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::cracks her knuckles on each hand, slowly, absently::

FCO_Jones says:
:: Moves up again, and back to the other console, casually working ::

CMO_Shiar says:
*XO*: I’ve made moulds of the wounds in the bodies, they may help in the investigation

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::goes pale::

CNS_Luchena says:
::hears Kerina's knuckles crack and looks at her again::

SO_Tribble says:
XO: Uh, Sir, do you need any assistance?

Host Tailea says:
XO: Waiting for? I am waiting for the meeting with the little tweeters...and you, little man? What are you waiting for?

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::speaks again, a little louder:: CTO: WHO?

CTO_Hull says:
::looks around the bridge::

EO_Tomari says:
Self: Looks like everything is up-to-date...

CTO_Hull says:
CO: Captain it was made from the Engineering 2 console, I do not believe anyone is assigned there.

XO_Rofax says:
::quickly mutes his COMM badge::  Tailea:  A sign of weakness.  ::grabs her on the arms and pushes her toward the bed::

CNS_Luchena says:
::is alarmed by Kerina's tone of voice::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
CTO: And the internal sensors? Who do they record as being there at that time? And what's the significance of that particular stardate?

CNS_Luchena says:
CTO:  Who was logged onto it at that time?

Host Tailea says:
Action: The growls of the other Macoos roar through the room as the XO is attacked from all sides.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CTO:  So that means either someone from this ship is a killer or we have an intruder that has gone around undetected ...

FCO_Jones says:
:: At the flight console, looks up old navigation roots::

CNS_Luchena says:
::looks over at Jordan::

XO_Rofax says:
Tailea:  All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy....  ::smiles as the fur flies::

CMO_Shiar says:
:: looks at the results on the sample::  Nick: hmm, nothing strange here. Macoo, unique, no poison

CTO_Hull says:
CO: Yes Captain, I will have to do some more investigation of the log, the intruder encrypted their login...

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::doesn't hear anyone except the CTO, which is good, as she'd get even angrier at her line of inquiry being further delayed if she did::

Host Tailea says:
Action: Tailea laughs as she tears her claws across the XO's face.

CNS_Luchena says:
::looks back at Kerina eyes wide::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
CTO: Initiate an intruder alert...and finding out who this was is your top priority.

CTO_Hull says:
CO: Aye Captain

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
ALL: And nobody leaves the bridge until I say otherwise.

XO_Rofax says:
::winces as little as possible trying to maintain eye contact::  Tailea:  Frisky are we?  ::tries to gain leverage while wrestling away from the others::

CTO_Hull says:
OPS: Mr. Pettigrove, initiate intruder alert, all personnel not on duty are to be in their quarters

SO_Tribble says:
::knows she isn't the intruder, so continues studying the computer data::

CTO_Hull says:
CO: Captain, I should interview everyone that was on the bridge during that time frame

Host Tailea says:
Action: Tailea is getting tired of playing games and considers whether or not she's still hungry.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
*ALL*:  All hands, intruder alert.  All off-duty personnel are to remain in quarters until further notice.  All on-duty personnel are to remain at their posts.

FCO_Jones says:
:: continues to look over flight data:

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
CTO: Start with the crew currently on the bridge.

CTO_Hull says:
CO: Aye!

XO_Rofax says:
::fails to hear the COMM as he is wrestling with the Kitties::

CMO_Shiar says:
:: secures the records and makes sure the guards are in place::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CTO:  This had to be planned.  There could be communication between the intruder and whoever sent them.  It'll take some digging but I might be able to find something ...

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::sits down in her chair::

CNS_Luchena says:
CO:  This can't be possible.

EO_Tomari says:
::hears the comm:: Self: I just got here... and there’s already trouble

CTO_Hull says:
OPS: Not until you are cleared Mr. Pettigrove

Host Tailea says:
Action: The two large male Macoos drag the XO off of Tailea and slams him into the wall.

CNS_Luchena says:
::feels something shift::

CNS_Luchena says:
::looks at Kerina closely::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::raises an eyebrow in an oddly suspicious way:: CNS: Compared to other things we've experienced, how so?

CTO_Hull says:
CNS: May I speak with you in the observation lounge?

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CTO:  You don't think I did this?  ::glares at him::

CTO_Hull says:
OPS: ::grins:: Procedure Mr. Pettigrove

CNS_Luchena says:
CO:  I think you are getting jaded.

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::realizes with a small start that her near-rage is gone...completely gone...and wonders exactly where it went::

XO_Rofax says:
::hits the wall hard and slumps to the floor in a thud, spitting out a mouthful of blood::  Tailea: What is it?  You shun me?  ::tries to stand::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
CNS: You don't reach captain without it, Mikal.

CMO_Shiar says:
*CTO*: I’ve made moulds of the wounds in the bodies. they could be used to find a match with the teeth of one of the Macoo.

SO_Tribble says:
::carefully and inauspiciously turns a tricorder on the CO::

CNS_Luchena says:
::laughs softly and relaxes into his chair::

CTO_Hull says:
*CTO*: Thank you Doctor, that will come in handy

Host Tailea says:
::laughs:: Not at all, little one. When one plays with the big cats, one must play with the whole litter.

XO_Rofax says:
Tailea: I am not interested in the entire litter.  They amuse me..... you are.... unique....  ::pushes himself up, using the wall to balance himself::

CTO_Hull says:
CNS: Counselor? ::looks at his tricorder:: Please advise where you were on the bridge during 21:30 hours?

FCO_Jones says:
:: pulls up their last flight plan, and compares it to past trips::

Host Tailea says:
::raises a brow:: XO: You only play with females?

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
OPS: Still no response?

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::shakes her head:: CO: No Sir, not that I have clearance anymore ... ::mutters to herself::

CNS_Luchena says:
::tries to recall::

Host Tailea says:
::signals for her mates to release him::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
OPS: How many ships still have working comms?

XO_Rofax says:
Tailea: In my culture, yes.  Others apply different rules.  ::grins allowing the blood to drip out of the corner of his mouth, showing his eyeteeth in the process::

CMO_Shiar says:
*OPS*: how's the investigation coming?

CNS_Luchena says:
CTO:  I was with the Captain in the Macoo's quarters.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CO:  Two, Sir.  I forgot I had the comm continually sending ...

Host Tailea says:
::thinks the small man may be very interesting...once he learned the rules.::

Host Tailea says:
XO: The other one, he is not of your culture?

CTO_Hull says:
CNS: Confirmed Counselor, what are your observations of this incident?

CNS_Luchena says:
CTO:  I didn't see any of it.

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::access the comm system through her chair and sends a few simple messages much like the previous ones, threatening to continue overloading their comms until they agree to discuss this::

CTO_Hull says:
CNS: Thank you Counselor, you may return to duty

XO_Rofax says:
Tailea:  Humanoid is the only trait we share.  However, the Pendragon welcomes the company of many, many cultures.  ::steadies himself  while holding her gaze::

CNS_Luchena says:
CTO:  Am I still confined to the bridge?

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CO:  Captain!  I'm detecting a sub-space signal being sent on a coded channel from the Pendragon to the lead ship.  I'm trying to ascertain its origin point now.  ::fingers fly over her console::

Host Tailea says:
::ponders that:: XO: But the other one, he plays with all, no?

CTO_Hull says:
CNS: You are on duty, wherever your duty may take you Counselor

CNS_Luchena says:
::considers what his primary duty is at this moment::

CMO_Shiar says:
:: takes another look inside the bodies::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CO:  Sir ... The message appears to be originating from the Bridge!

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::blocks the transmission::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
OPS: Where on the bridge? ::stands up quickly::

CNS_Luchena says:
::raises from his chair and looks around the bridge slowly::

CTO_Hull says:
::looks over at OPS::

XO_Rofax says:
Tailea:  Our CNS plays by his own set of rules.  He is very devoted to his beliefs.

FCO_Jones says:
::Brings up information on shuttle maintenance::

Host Tailea says:
Action: the ships back off slightly as if in response to the message.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CO:  Still trying to pinpoint which console ...

CNS_Luchena says:
::recalls David working on his console just before this all started::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
OPS: Shut down the consoles until the message stops.

CNS_Luchena says:
::prays it’s not from his::

Host Tailea says:
::grins ferally:: XO: You Federations are very interesting, much more so than the tweeters.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CO:  Aye, Sir.  ::shuts down all bridge consoles::

CMO_Shiar says:
*XO*: I’ve found nothing new sir. should I still continue?

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
OPS: And since you have to shut them down one by one, note which one shutoff causes the signal to cease.

XO_Rofax says:
::wipes the blood spatter onto his sleeve::  Tailea:  There is so much more I could show you.  However, it is best to experience it one-on-one.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::shuts them down one by one:: CO: Sir I got it!  Point of origin is the same point as the transport.  Engineering station 2.

Host Tailea says:
::eyes him with a smile::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::dashes over to the engineering substation with a tricorder, determined to figure this out::

CNS_Luchena says:
::takes his seat again::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::simultaneously examining the console and scanning::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::brings all stations back up except Engineering 2 ... ::

CNS_Luchena says:
OPS:  This is weird.

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
OPS: Figure out what the encoded message was.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CNS:  Counselor?

XO_Rofax says:
::turns to leave::  Tailea:  When you are ready, contact me.  I need to get back to work.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CO:  I'm running it through decryption but nothing yet, Sir.

Host Tailea says:
XO: A few hours ago, you tried to jail me...and now, you want something else?

XO_Rofax says:
Tailea:  I tend to play by my own set of rules.  Find something I like and take it.

CTO_Hull says:
::isolates the engineering substation from the rest of the bridge::

FCO_Jones says:
::Looks around the bridge, and wonders what’s wrong::

XO_Rofax says:
::pauses at the door, awaiting Tailea's response::

CNS_Luchena says:
FCO:  Maybe we have a ghost on the bridge.  ::grins::

SO_Tribble says:
FCO: Do you have any ideas?

Host Tailea says:
::flexes her claws:: XO: You may stay, little one.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CO:  Sir, this appears to be in Federation code.  I should have a translation in a few minutes.

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
CTO: It's been slaved to another console. ::raises an eyebrow::

EO_Tomari says:
::goes to the chief's office and lays his orders on the desk::

XO_Rofax says:
::taps his commbadge and whispers::  *CMO*  Standby.

CNS_Luchena says:
CO:  Another bridge console?

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::runs the code through the computer and orders what she has of the message decrypted::

EO_Tomari says:
::goes to the adjacent office and brings a readout of primary systems and output::

Host Tailea says:
::ears prick::

Host CO_O`Dunn says:
::drops the tricorder and pulls a phaser out of small locker near the wall and aims it at the FCO:: CNS: That one.

CTO_Hull says:
CO: Captain we should bring the auxiliary bridge online

Host Tailea says:
