********Begin Pharaoh Mission*******  
            " The Code of Warriors"

OPS Stidd says:
::Sitting at ops ready for engine shut down::

 CO von Krieg says:
::reviewing mission data at the ready table::

FCO Qwynn says:
:: Seated at flight control ::

CMO Hebe says:
:: prepares medical bay and bags to be ready ::

TO T’Rel says:
::monitoring at Tac1::

FCO Qwynn says:
CO: ETA is 5 minutes, sir.  Would you like to insert at the North or South Pole location?

 CO von Krieg says:
::notes that personnel requirements have changed for the AT::

CMO Hebe says:
:: goes to bridge::

CO von Krieg says:
::looks at FCO::FCO: Southern pole insertion, please. Sensor data indicates the magnetic field is stronger at that location.

OPS Stidd says:
CO: Captain, are you ready for my report on the culture here?

CMO Hebe says:
:: enters bridge and quietly waits in the back::

EO Daimon says:
::Checking the plasma flow regulators::

FCO Qwynn says:
:: makes course adjustment toward the Southern polar region of Gorfax 4 ::  CO: Aye, sir.

Host John A says:
ACTION: The Pharaoh swings around the system to insert itself around the 4th planet in stealth mode.

 CO von Krieg says:
OPS: I trust your report is comprehensive, Mr. Stidd?

OPS Stidd says:
CO: As extensive as Possible but some of the information was hard to come by.

 CO von Krieg says:
OPS: I understand. The spread of humanoid culture is unpredictable at best. Report.

EO Daimon says:
::Finds that all systems are within operable limits:: EO Demak: You have Main Engineering, I'll be on the bridge. ::exits ME from the shaft above::

OPS Stidd says:
ALL: At present, it is believed that there are just 2 races on the planet.  The Gor is the Human race and is believed to be the superior race.

 CO von Krieg says:
OPS: Superior? In what way> Technology, religion?....

FCO Qwynn says:
:: readies the flight controls systems for silent running and checks the sector for asteroid fields ::

EO Daimon says:
::enters the bridge from the forward port shaft, and walks to a console::

FCO Qwynn says:
:: turns off navigational beacon and running lights ::

 CO von Krieg says:
::notes on his control panel that the ship is slipping into grey mode::

FCO Qwynn says:
:: checks that impulse power is to thrusters only ::

OPS Stidd says:
All:    Technology, Sir.  It is believed they are the descendants of a Colony ship that was launched sometime after the Eugenics Wars on Earth and that they crashed here.  The strongest weapons should be only lasers and no Fusion power or force fields should be on the planet.

 CO von Krieg says:
EO: Engage our counter measures. Limit our EM signature.

EO Daimon says:
CO: Aye sir, counter measures are engaged....

Host John A says:
ACTION: the bussard collectors change from an angry red to a dull yellow color as the Pharaoh coasts into orbit of the 4th planet

EO Daimon says:
::Decreases the manifolds EM reading to .38432 and turns on the dull vermigators::

OPS Stidd says:
All: The problem is that they now have Antimatter weapons and they seem to have skipped the fusion era all together in just a few weeks.  That is what alerted SF to the problem here.

CMO Hebe says:
:: listens with great interest to what is being said but is wondering about the other race::

EO Daimon says:
OPS:  Are the weapons phased variance, or dilateral?

EO Daimon says:
::notices a gammeron pulse heading in their directing, uses counter measures as to not give away their position. ::

OPS Stidd says:
All: The Faxions are the indigenous race and are strong religiously.  They are the ones that are in trouble here.  They are close to being enslaved under their religious beliefs here.  The weapons are believed to be of both and of current Federation design.  That is only a guess though as it is obtained via LRS only.

CO von Krieg says:
OPS: Mr. Stidd, what sort of abilities would this people have if their forefathers were genetically modified?

OPS Stidd says:
CO: We are looking at superior strength to us as well as increased mental capabilities and a strong ability to adapt  to any situation.

CMO Hebe says:
:: make  a mental note to get OPS in for a check up::

 CO von Krieg says:
::nods:: FCO: Are we in position?

FCO Qwynn says:
CO: Yes, sir.

 CO von Krieg says:
::to self:: Unsere Ubermenchen::

TO T’ Rel says:
::Continues scanning the 3rd planet::

 CO von Krieg says:
EO: Begin passive scans of the traditional insertion points into this system.

OPS Stidd says:
CO: Captain, I recommend that I stay behind as there is no record of Vulcans coming to this planet.

TO T’ Rel says:
CO: Captain, I'm reading photon grenade, phaser fire, gunfire, and laser blasts on the planets surface.

Host John A says:
ACTION: A small ship breaks from the standard trade lanes and enters the system in an erratic flight pattern

EO Daimon says:
CO: Aye sir....

 CO von Krieg says:
::notes that members of the suggested away team are busy with other tasks:: OPS: I agree.  This is especially true if these people carry the same paranoia’s as their forefathers.

EO Daimon says:
::Begins Beta level scans::

OPS Stidd says:
CO: We have a ship incoming on an irregular flight path.

FCO Qwynn says:
CO: Sir, we have movement, a ship has deviated course

 CO von Krieg says:
TO: Photon grenades? Can you tell me which side is the more heavily armed?

FCO Qwynn says:
:: prepares course directly to this ship ::

 CO von Krieg says:
FCO: Engage engines...shadow the ship.

OPS Stidd says:
::Sounds General Quarters::

EO Daimon says:
::Thinks its a bad sign when the planet of barbarians are more heavily armed than you are::

FCO Qwynn says:
:: engages engines :: CO: Aye sir

FCO Qwynn says:
:: maneuvers thrusters to shadow the ship in question ::

TO T’ Rel says:
CO: The species on the Western side of the continent is more heavily armed, Captain.

OPS Stidd says:
::Does a passive scan to identify the ship::

CO von Krieg says:
FCO: Shadow the vessel. Make us into a sensor echo...

TO T’ Rel says:
::notes several periods of extremely heavy weapons fire, on the planet::

TO T’ Rel says:
::continues scans::

FCO Qwynn says:
CO: Echo, yes sir.

OPS Stidd says:
CO: The ship is a Ferengi, and its leaking plasma, sir.

Host John A says:
ACTION: The small ship continues to meander toward the 3rd planet at high impulse

FCO Qwynn says:
:: maintaining shadow distance ::

OPS Stidd says:
CO: Should I try hailing it sir?

 CO von Krieg says:
FCO: Wait for them to approach the planet. If they beam anything to the planet. Power on all engines. EO: Be ready with a tractor beam.

FCO Qwynn says:
CO: Yes, sir. 

 CO von Krieg says:
OPS: Negative. Let's see if we can catch them.

FCO Qwynn says:
:: readies engines ::

TO T’ Rel says:
CO: There is an incoming Com signal from the ship... too weak to make out.

FCO Qwynn says:
:: puts the ship on screen ::

 CO von Krieg says:
CMO: Are you still up for an away team, Dr.?

EO Daimon says:
CO: Aye...::Prepares the tractor beam::

CMO Hebe says:
CO: Yes sir 

 CO von Krieg says:
TO: Are any other ships in the area?

OPS Stidd says:
CO: Their signal is too weak at this range, its just static, Sir.

Host John A says:
ACTION: The little trader class ship shakes and shudders as it continues on a collision course with the planet..

EO Daimon says:
::Checks the ships signature, and metamorphous the tractor beam to it....::

TO T’ Rel says:
CO: No sir.

 CO von Krieg says:
::looks reluctant:: FCO: Power all systems. OPS: Hail the vessel.

OPS Stidd says:
CO: Aye sir. ::Opens hailing frequencies::

FCO Qwynn says:
:: powers up systems :: CO: systems powered.

Host John A says:
ACTION: Static is the only reply to the hail...

OPS Stidd says:
::Continues scanning the vessel::

 CO von Krieg says:
COM: Ferengi: Ferengi vessel, this is the Federation vessel USS Pharaoh. May we render assistance?

OPS Stidd says:
CO: No response to the hails sir, but the plasma may be interfering.

FCO Qwynn says:
:: begins to close the distance between the two ships ::

 CO von Krieg says:
OPS: Time until their impact into the planet? Are they cargo laden?

OPS Stidd says:
::Tries to filter out the effects of the plasma to the signal::

 CO von Krieg says:
FCO: Mr. Qwynn, are you up for an away mission?

FCO Qwynn says:
CO: Of course, sir.

EO Daimon says:
CO: 5 life signs are on board....there communications could be down.

Host John A says:
ACTION: The ship shakes again but doesn't alter coarse

EO Daimon says:
<Their>

OPS Stidd says:
ALL: Time to impact is 4 minutes and their engines and comm are jammed.

EO Daimon says:
CO: The life signs are weakening, its probably due to the lack of shielding, or some sort of radiation sickness...permission to go aboard and find out.

OPS Stidd says:
CO: There is too much interference to read if there is a cargo or not.

FCO Qwynn says:
~~~ Stidd ~~~  decoy?

OPS Stidd says:
::Attempts to get a transporter lock on the life signs::

FCO Qwynn says:
Routes some of her power back to OPS

EO Daimon says:
CO: Shall I engage the tractor beam?

OPS Stidd says:
FCO : It is not a standard tactic of the Ferengi, Miss. Qwynn.

Host John A says:
ACTION: The plasma interference thwarts any attempt to lock on to the ships crew

EO Daimon says:
CO: Shall I engage the tractor beam?

 CO von Krieg says:
EO: Aye.

OPS Stidd says:
CO: I am unable to get a lock on the life forms aboard the ship.

EO Daimon says:
::Engages the tractor beam::

 CO von Krieg says:
TO: Jam all out going transmissions from the ship.

Host John A says:
ACTION: The Pharaohs tractor reaches out an grabs the little ship, a noticeable tug is felt as momentum is transferred against the beam

EO Daimon says:
CO: I've got them.....we are secure to pull them away.

 CO von Krieg says:
EO: Proceed.

FCO Qwynn says:
:: plots course away from plasma interference ::

EO Daimon says:
CO: Permission to go aboard the vessel, and try to stop that plasma leak....

 CO von Krieg says:
::looks over at Stidd:: OPS: Mr. Stidd, once we are at a secure distance. I am leaving the Ferengi to your Vulcan logic.

TO T’ Rel says:
CO: Captain, I’m reading an overload in the plasma injector system of the Ferengi ship.

OPS Stidd says:
ALL: It looks like their ship is going to blow!

FCO Qwynn says:
:: engages new course ::

 CO von Krieg says:
::urgently:: EO: Can you tap into their computer system, shut it down remotely?

EO Daimon says:
CO: No  sir....I need to do it directly...and quickly

 CO von Krieg says:
EO: go

EO Daimon says:
::Hits a remote emergency transport from his panel...Beams in the Ferengi's ME::

EO Daimon says:
@::materializes at the plasma leak::

EO Daimon says:
@:: Shuts down the main Dilateral drive, reinitializes the plasma flow::

 CO von Krieg says:
TO: Keep a lock on Mr. Daimon. Yank him back at the first sign of trouble.

Host John A says:
ACTION: 3 Ferengi immediately chatter in panic at the EO, pointing to the injured Engineer and pleading for help

TO T’ Rel says:
CO: Aye sir.

EO Daimon says:
@:: Redirects it through the secondary generator::

 CO von Krieg says:
::moves to the engineering station::

Host Slog says:
EO: Help us! Our engineer is hurt, we're going to die! :: flails arms wildly::

 CO von Krieg says:
OPS: Can you get a scan of their cargo hold?

FCO Qwynn says:
keeps the ship on course

EO Daimon says:
@Slog: Here use this....::Hands him his com badge:: Slog: wear it, and click it two times while holding your companion...you'll beam out.

CMO Hebe says:
:: goes to medical bay to treat the injured   ::

Host Slog says:
:: grabs the EOs arm and hugs it:: EO: Thank you!

OPS Stidd says:
CO: I will try now, sir .::Scans the cargo hold once again::

CO von Krieg says:
TO: Accompany the Dr. to greet our visitors, please.

EO Daimon says:
@ Slog: no it is I who is grateful, that you would use my assistance....::Goes back to repairing the plasma flow::

Host Slog says:
:: taps com badge twice and finds himself with the injured engineer in the Pharaohs infirmary::

TO T’ Rel says:
Aye sir.

CMO Hebe says:
:: goes to medical bay to treat the injured ::

EO Daimon says:
@::Wonders how he will get back to the ship now....shrugs.. and gets back to work::

TO T’ Rel says:

CMO Hebe says:
::arrives at medical bay and begins treating the injured Ferengi::

TO T’ Rel says:
::arrives in the medical bay as well::

 CO von Krieg says:
FCO: They hardly seem like arm merchants...::smirks::

EO Daimon says:
@::Coughs a little blood....there must be a radiation leak...goes to find it...::

FCO Qwynn says:
:: snickers with the Captain... but where is Daimon? ::

OPS Stidd says:
CO: Whatever is in their hold must be valuable if they will protect it this much but allow me to read 15 bars of GPL.

Host Slog says:
:: paws at the Doctor:: CMO: Please! help him, our ship is our profit. We need him keep it running!!!

CMO Hebe says:
:: begins to repair the injuries due to the plasma  burns and radiation sickness and lacerations due to shrapnel::

 CO von Krieg says:
::turns to Stidd:: OPS: Can you isolate Daimon's life sign?

CMO Hebe says:
TO: Please remove this Ferengi so I can treat  the injured::

OPS Stidd says:
CO: Aye sir, he is still in engineering.

TO T’ Rel says:
CMO: Aye.

TO T’ Rel says:
::helps the Ferengi up::

 CO von Krieg says:
::attempts to patch into the Ferengi ship's comm system:: COM: EO: Mr. Daimon, what is your status?

TO T’ Rel says:
CMO: Can he leave sickbay?

Host Slog says:
:: Starts pawing at the TO and pleading:: TO: Can she save him? she must save him! let me go!

EO Daimon says:
::Finds that there is some sort of uranium element in the engineering.....Hears the Comm...hits it:: CMO: CO: I am fine sir....

CMO Hebe says:
TO: yes he can he has no injuries::

TO T’ Rel says:

CMO Hebe says:
*CO*: can you beam him directly to sick bay;;

 CO von Krieg says:
All: Energize!

TO T’ Rel says:
::waits for the Captain's answer and tries to reassure Slog::

OPS Stidd says:
::Double checks the scans after hearing the DR's comment:: CO: The Dr. is correct.  He is starting to show signs of level 2 radiation sickness.  Should I transport?

EO Daimon says:
@::Is beamed to Sickbay::

EO Daimon says:
::Re-materializes in sickbay...and grabs onto a bio-bed to remain standing::

CMO Hebe says:

OPS Stidd says:
CO:I have penetrated their cargo bay shields and the CB is empty sir.:: Raises an eyebrow in surprise at the findings::

EO Daimon says:
CMO: Sir, that isn't necessary....

 CO von Krieg says:
OPS: Hhhmmm.

EO Daimon says:
CMO: A direct order is all that I need.

CMO Hebe says:
