XO_Krieg says:
::on bridge::

ENG_Rineh says:
::enters main engineering, amazed at the lack of space::

CTO_Terr says:
::walks onto the bridge and sees his friends and crewmates again, and looks for the CO, not seeing him::

FCO_Braun says:
*CEO*:  Mr. Stark...?  I am showing power spikes on the starboard nacelle again.

Lizzy says:
CO: I'm ready to assist you and your crew with this mission, yes.

CTO_Terr says:
::spots the XO in the CO's chair and walks over::

CEO_Stark says:
*FCO* : No problem. I'll put my new engineer on the case.

CTO_Terr says:
XO: Lt.Cmdr. Andrew Terrance requesting a return to duty, sir.

XO_Krieg says:
::hears Braun's report, punches up engine readouts::

CO_Krust says:
Lizzy: Very well, and you have left nothing out? ::narrows eyes::

CEO_Stark says:
ENG: Balance the power flux to the port nacelle. We've had this problem before. The whole system probably needs a refit.

CNS_Aeryn says:
COM: CO: Do you need me anywhere now?

XO_Krieg says:
::smiles:: CTO: Welcome back. I trust you've been briefed?

Lizzy says:
:: upset by his tone :: CO: Yes!

CTO_Terr says:
XO: A bit, sir, but I think I should be fine.

ENG_Rineh says:
CEO:  Aye, sir.  And by the way, nice to see you again.  How's life since the academy?

CTO_Terr says:
XO: I also have a confession, sir.

XO_Krieg says:
CTO: Oh?

CO_Krust says:
LIzzy: You have failed to tell me things in the past.

ENG_Rineh says:
::walks over to the power distribution console and gets to work routing the necessary power::

FCO_Braun says:
:: turns around to see CTO ::  CTO:  Andrew... where have you been...?  Up to no good, no doubt!

CTO_Terr says:
XO: During the final attempt at the rescue, I, ahem, destroyed the shuttle.

CEO_Stark says:
ENG: Busy, but you'll see for yourself. We should catch up in the officer's mess when we get a chance.

CNS_Aeryn says:
::leaves quarters and goes to TL::

CTO_Terr says:
::nods to FCO and smiles::

Lizzy says:
CO:  A mistake I regret; one of many.  :: turning to walk away ::  CO: Is that all, :: mockingly :: Captain?

ENG_Rineh says:
CEO:  You got it, Stark.

CNS_Aeryn says:
::enters bridge:: All: Hello!

XO_Krieg says:
::chuckles:: CTO: Make sure the new CEO gets the debris.

FCO_Braun says:
CNS:  Counselor...!  Glad to see you better...

CTO_Terr says:
::turns to see the counselor and says::   CNS: It's good to see you up and about again.

CO_Krust says:
Lizzy: NO! That is not all! But be gone anyway!

CNS_Aeryn says:
CTO: Thanks! ::smiles::

CTO_Terr says:
XO: Well, ah, sir, there isn't actually any remains. I used a very powerful device called a quantum torpedo, or four!!!

FCO_Braun says:
:: keeps an eye on the nav map ::

CO_Krust says:
:: fumes for a moment then heads to the bridge::

ENG_Rineh says:
::carefully adjusts the port nacelle power flux, notices the system is indeed in dire need of refit::

Lizzy says:
CO: Yes, sir!  :: leaves to go to her quarters until she is needed ::

CMO_Lee says:
::after the tedious job of house-cleaning, he goes to his smaller than closet-sized office and begins research on the blood sample that he collected from Ensign Patrick::

CEO_Stark says:
ENG: Keep the place warm. I'll be at the Bridge engineering station checking the power grid diagnostic.

CTO_Terr says:
XO: Should I report to the CO, sir? Or is he busy?

FCO_Braun says:
:: notices power spikes reducing, but still evident ::

CEO_Stark says:

Lizzy says:
:: arrives at her quarters, but is restless ::

CO_Krust says:
CTO: Andrew! Welcome home. CNS: And counselor Zhann!  All: Excellent!

CTO_Terr says:
CO: It is good to be back, sir.

FCO_Braun says:
:: takes seat back at station, preparing to drop from warp ::

XO_Krieg says:

CNS_Aeryn says:
CO: Sir, it seems Lizzy is in distress. Shall I go to her?

ENG_Rineh says:
*CEO*:  Ready to exit warp, sir.

CSO_Fist says:
CO: Picking up faint energy readings from the planet, sir.

CO_Krust says:
XO: Acknowledged. Any preliminary data?

CTO_Terr says:
::walks to FCO::

CNS_Aeryn says:
OPS: Thank you!

CEO_Stark says:
XO: The new engineer was a friend of mine at the academy. I think you'll be happy with him.

XO_Krieg says:
CO: None at this time, sir.  The colony is silent.

FCO_Braun says:
:: drops from warp, engages impulse engines at full ::

CO_Krust says:
CSO: Can you identify, Daven?

CTO_Terr says:
FCO: Hey Jako, what the heck is going on? The XO of the Crazy Horse briefed me, but I have no idea what he was talking about. He had this thick Rigellian accent.

FCO_Braun says:
:: notices CTO's appraoch ::

CNS_Aeryn says:
::waits patiently, watching proceedings::

CSO_Fist says:
CO: Attempting to now.

Lizzy says:

FCO_Braun says:
:: aside to CTO :: CTO:  We are going into a destroyed Cardassian/Jem Haddar reasearch facility.

CTO_Terr says:
::listens with intent::

XO_Krieg says:
::nods to CEO:: CEO: Good, teamwork is mandatory down there.

FCO_Braun says:
:: plots an approach vector to LM-624 ::

CEO_Stark says:
XO: Aye, sir.

CNS_Aeryn says:
::looks at screen, sees barren planet, thinks, Great::

OPSFowler says:
::sends hail to the colony::

FCO_Braun says:
::continues to CTO :: CTO:  One of the guests... and old friend of the Captain's... apparently escaped with her life... barely...

ENG_Rineh says:
::taps combadge::  *XO*:  Sir, this is Ensign Rinehart reporting in from Engineering.  We didn't get a chance to meet yet, but I'm glad to be aboard.

XO_Krieg says:
::walks over to CEO:: CEO: Ensign, trust your instincts down there.  The books aren't always right.

CNS_Aeryn says:
::feels Lizzy's presence approaching::

Lizzy says:
*CMO* : Doctor:  Doctor, this is Ensign Patrick. I'd like to meet with you. Where are you at at this time?

CSO_Fist says:
::scanning for lifesigns::

CO_Krust says:
OPS: Any return hail?

FCO_Braun says:
CO:  Captain?  Shall I enter standard orbit?

CEO_Stark says:
:: looks over shoulder to XO :: XO: I'm getting to realize that.

OPSFowler says:
CO: None yet, sir. Still trying, though.

XO_Krieg says:
*EO* : Understood, ensign. Good work.

CMO_Lee says:
*EO* : I'm in sickbay at the moment.  Why? Is there a problem?

CTO_Terr says:
FCO: So we're going to take a team down and do what?

CO_Krust says:
FCO: Yes, geo-synchronous orbit above the colony.

FCO_Braun says:
:: enters standard orbit aound LM-624 ::

XO_Krieg says:
*CMO* : Dr. Lee, acknowledge.

CTO_Terr says:
FCO: Chase bugs or something?

FCO_Braun says:
CTO:  I guess to figure out what happened; although it sounds like this could be pretty messy.

Lizzy says:
*CMO*: Doctor: No problem, I'd just like to discuss what we're going to do to track down these Jem H'adar.

CMO_Lee says:
*XO* : What can I do for you, sir?

CO_Krust says:
XO: How should we proceed? 

ENG_Rineh says:
*CEO*:  Sir, I've stabilized the power flux to the nacelles.  We shouldn't have to worry with those any more.

Lizzy says:
TL: Sickbay

CTO_Terr says:
FCO: What were they doing at this place?

FCO_Braun says:
CTO:  Not sure. I haven't been privvy to that information.

CTO_Terr says:
FCO: I see.

XO_Krieg says:
*CMO* : Doctor, please prepare your staff for possible biological hazards.  We may need some medical magic here.

CNS_Aeryn says:
CO: If you will excuse me, sir, I feel someone needs me.

CO_Krust says:
CTO/TO: Do you have a security team standing by?

CTO_Terr says:
FCO: So how do I co-ordinate a security team if I don't know what it's for?

Host Steve says:
ACTION:  FROM ORBIT, THE FLASH OF LIGHTNING CAN BE SEEN AS GREAT STORM SYSTEMS SEEM TO BE SPAWNED FROM THE COLONY

TAC_Tamek says:
CO: Aye, sir.

Lizzy says:
:: exits the TL near Sickbay ::

CO_Krust says:
CNS: Very well, counselor.

CNS_Aeryn says:
::heads for TL::

CEO_Stark says:
ENG: Good work. 

CNS_Aeryn says:
TL: Sickbay

CTO_Terr says:
CO: I think Mr. Mabistar has one, but I am unsure of what the team will be needed for.

ENG_Rineh says:
::grins to himself, decides to inspect the coolant system::

TAC_Tamek says:
CTO: Will you be leading the team, or will I?

CNS_Aeryn says:
::exits TL and nearly knocks Lizzy down::

CTO_Terr says:
TO: I'll lead the team. 

CNS_Aeryn says:
Lizzy: Excuse me!

Lizzy says:
CMO: Doctor, :: handing over a PADD :: here is the restructured DNA sequence we introduced into these Jem H'adar.  I'm wondering if we can use this to help track them down.

CSO_Fist says:
::analyzing the atmospheric disturbances::

TAC_Tamek says:
CTO:Then I will have your battle gear sent to the transporter room.

CEO_Stark says:
CO: Should you need an engineer to help restore any systems? I volunteer for the away team.

Lizzy says:
:: turns :: CNS: Hello?

CMO_Lee says:
::takes the PADD::

CTO_Terr says:
TO: Thank you, Mr Mabistar. Or can I call you Tamek?

XO_Krieg says:
CSO: Mr. Fist, please begin a planetary scan for lifesigns and structures.

CNS_Aeryn says:
Lizzy: Hello! I've been waiting to meet you ! Are you well?

TAC_Tamek says:
CTO:Tamek, sir, if you do not mind.

CMO_Lee says:
::looks up at the two women chatting::

CTO_Terr says:
TO: No problem, Tamek. I like to know the people I work with.

CSO_Fist says:
XO: Aye, sir.  ::scanning the colony for lifesigns::

CNS_Aeryn says:
Lizzy: When you can spare a moment, I would like to talk to you.

Lizzy says:
CNS: Yes, I'm fine, thank you.  It's nice to meet you.  :: turns back slightly to await the Doctor's response to her data ::

XO_Krieg says:
CO: Sir, if this turns into an evacuation, we may be facing some serious environmental problems on board.

CNS_Aeryn says:
::thinks, Lizzy is in distress::

CSO_Fist says:
XO: I'm getting too much interference from the storms. They seem to be generating from the colony.

CNS_Aeryn says:
::tucks back hair::

Lizzy says:
:: she's very frazzled :: CNS: Yes, that would be nice.

CEO_Stark says:
CSO: Will the transporters work okay?

CTO_Terr says:
CO: You sure you want to be within beaming range of the colony, sir?

CSO_Fist says:
CEO: Negative. Can't hold a lock.

Lizzy says:
CNS: I will come and see you as soon as I can. Where will you be?

CO_Krust says:
XO: A shuttle? Or beam down in force?

CMO_Lee says:
Lizzy: This is very helpful.  This DNA is much different from the normal Jem'Hadar DNA.

XO_Krieg says:
CSO: Thank you, Mr. Fist. Please see if you can overcome the interference.

CEO_Stark says:
CO: We do have atmospheric flight and landing capabilities; our shuttles are very small.

FCO_Braun says:
CO:  Captain, if I may? We can plan a shuttle insertion.

Lizzy says:
CMO:  There must be a way for the security teams to utilize this!

CTO_Terr says:
CO: I recommend against taking down the Pharaoh.

CNS_Aeryn says:
Lizzy: I don't mean to interrupt.  CMO: May I observe, sir?

CEO_Stark says:
CO:  If we're going to evacuate a colony we'll need more room than a shuttlecraft.

CTO_Terr says:
CO: A shuttle will be safer and those things couldn't get on the ship if we're out of range.

CO_Krust says:
CEO: Very true, Mr. Stark, but I'd rather not risk the Pharaoh just yet.

CEO_Stark says:
CO: Aye, sir.

XO_Krieg says:
CO: Sir, I'm hesitant to send a team down blind.  A small security detail, perhaps.

CTO_Terr says:
CEO: That is the beauty of recon teams Mr. .... By the way, I didn't catch your name?

CO_Krust says:
CTO: My thought exactly, Andrew.

CMO_Lee says:
Lizzy:  I'm not exactly an engineer or a science officer, but I'm sure we can input the data into the tricorders, so they are looking for an exact thing.

CEO_Stark says:
CTO: Call me Jimmy.

CMO_Lee says:
CNS: Of course.

CNS_Aeryn says:
CMO: Thank you.

Lizzy says:
CMO: Great. I will upload this information to your Tactical officer.

CTO_Terr says:
CEO: I'm Andrew Terrance, although I think CTO would be better on duty; otherwise our strict XO here might get angry. Isn't that right, Magnus?

Lizzy says:
CMO: Or would you like to do that?

OPSFowler says:
::no response from the colony, just static. she tries tweaking the channel a bit, but no improvement::

CNS_Aeryn says:
::sidles in closer::

XO_Krieg says:
::grunts slightly::

TAC_Tamek says:
::reroutes sensor power to OPS::

CMO_Lee says:
::hands the PADD back to Ens. Patrick:: Lizzy: Go ahead and give to the TO.  He should be on the bridge.

CO_Krust says:
XO: I see no choice, we must get to the bottom this.

ENG_Rineh says:
::smiles as the coolant system passes inspection, walks over to the main engine readout and begins to check the power flow::

Lizzy says:
:: dreading going back to the bridge :: CMO: Very well, I'm on my way.

CO_Krust says:
CSO: Can we beam down safely?

Lizzy says:
:: leaves sickbay for the bridge ::

CNS_Aeryn says:
Lizzy: May I speak with you on the way?

Lizzy says:
CNS: Sure.

OPSFowler says:
CO: Sir, I still have no reply to our hail. I'm still trying, but either they can't respond or they don't want to.

XO_Krieg says:
CO: Understood, sir.

CNS_Aeryn says:
::walks with Lizzy::

CEO_Stark says:
OPS: Could be that their communications system is out.

CSO_Fist says:
CO: I wouldn't recommend it, sir. I can't maintain a lock on anything within 5 km of the colony.

Lizzy says:
TL: Bridge  *CTO*: I'm bringing some data to you which should help you locate these Jem H'adar.

CNS_Aeryn says:
Lizzy: I feel you are disturbed with the captain.

CTO_Terr says:
CO: Then, sir, I think we should use the shuttles.

CTO_Terr says:
*Lizzy*: That would be most helpful, thank you.

CO_Krust says:
Self: Nuq!

CEO_Stark says:
OPS: These colonies aren't known for their strict maintenence.

CMO_Lee says:
::watches the two ladies leave sickbay::

Lizzy says:
:: looks at the counselor with amazement, then notices the black eyes ::  CNS: We were to be mated.

FCO_Braun says:
:: outlines a plan on his console to use the shuttle Luxor for an insertion ::

OPSFowler says:
::notes sensors are back on her board, gives acknowledging nod to the TO::

CTO_Terr says:
CTO: Pardon me, sir?

CNS_Aeryn says:
Lizzy: How are you feeling? I sense you are upset because of it.

CO_Krust says:
All: All right, options?

OPSFowler says:
CEO: True.

FCO_Braun says:
CO:  Recommend a shuttle insertion, sir.

CTO_Terr says:
CO: Sir, we take the shuttle down with a recon team and find out as much as poissible.

Lizzy says:
CNS: I only hope my mistakes haven't cost me my family.  :: arrives on bridge, goes to Tactical Station ::

CEO_Stark says:
CO: Should you need an enginner to help restore any systems down there I volunteer for the away team, sir.

CNS_Aeryn says:
Lizzy: Mistakes can be fixed or corrected. Have faith.

CO_Krust says:
CEO: If it comes to that. 

Lizzy says:
:: looks around, sees the CTO standing next to the hard chair ::

CNS_Aeryn says:
::pats Lizzy's shoulder reassuringly::

XO_Krieg says:
CO: Sir, I recommend a minimal team of a security officer, engineering officer, and medical officer.,

CEO_Stark says:
CO: I suggest sending 2 shuttles down, sir. Don't want to lose the whole team in case the storm damages one shuttle.

TAC_Tamek says:
::raises eyebrow at Lizzy::

Lizzy says:
CNS: Have you known your Klingon captain long?

CTO_Terr says:
CEO: If it gets into a fire fight down there, you may be vulnerable and we've been without an official CEO for months.

Lizzy says:
TAC: Sorry.  :: goes over to the hard chair ::

FCO_Braun says:
:: wonders if the CEO doubts my flying abilities ::

ENG_Rineh says:
::sighs as the engines also pass inspection, checks the dilithium containment cell::

CNS_Aeryn says:
Lizzy: Not long enough. I was injured.

Lizzy says:
CTO: Sir, the data I spoke of.

CTO_Terr says:
CO: Two shuttles would put us at a disadvantage.

CEO_Stark says:
CTO: Then send the newbie engineer. He's cannon fodder. Just a little joke.

CTO_Terr says:
Lizzy: Thank you.  ::recieves the PADD::

CTO_Terr says:
CEO: Those kind of jokes aren't funny. You just volunteered, if the CO agrees.

Lizzy says:
:: waits to see if the CTO needs her ::

XO_Krieg says:
::glares at the CEO::

CO_Krust says:
CTO: Jimmy has a point Andrew. If we can get the colony's sensors online we can track our objective. 

CNS_Aeryn says:
::is a bit miffed herself, nearly having died::

FCO_Braun says:
:: transfer insertion plan on PADD, hands PADD to CTO::  CTO:  Andrew, what do you think?

ENG_Rineh says:
::taps into the bridge, listens to the conversation::

CTO_Terr says:
::reads over the PADD::

CEO_Stark says:
:: smiles to self, might be a bad joke but anything to get on my first away mission::

CTO_Terr says:
Lizzy: You think this will work?

CTO_Terr says:
FCO: Good plan.

ENG_Rineh says:
*CEO*:  Sir, all crucial systems pass inspection.  We're running like a greased dust weevil down here.

CTO_Terr says:
CO: Sir, we only have the Rameses and Alexandria left.

Lizzy says:
CTO: I think it's our best chance to find them, ALL of them, and destroy them.

CTO_Terr says:
CO: I accidentally destroyed the Luxor. So until SF sends a replacement, we're down to two shuttles.

CNS_Aeryn says:
::stands there ::

TAC_Tamek says:
::stares at comm on ENG's remark::

CEO_Stark says:
*ENG* : Great work, Andrew.  Your living up to the reputation I've tried to give ya'.

CO_Krust says:
CTO: We will speak of that later...

CTO_Terr says:
CO: He pushed me too far, sir. You know I have a very low breaking point.   ::smiles a little::

CNS_Aeryn says:
:: giggles silently at her crewmates::

CEO_Stark says:
CTO: How many can those shuttles hold, sir?

CO_Krust says:
All: So a team of 12 or 14 with gear maximum?

CTO_Terr says:
CO: That may put us at a disadvantage.

CTO_Terr says:
CO: Too many people down there, mostly security officers, will leave us vulnerable up here if they manage to migrate.

CNS_Aeryn says:
:: looks at the back of Terrance's head thinking, see me::

CO_Krust says:
CTO: Agreed.

CTO_Terr says:
CO: Eight might be a good number, and the councelor's abilities might be useful also.

XO_Krieg says:
CO: Sir, I agree with Mr. Terrance.  We should concentrate on bringing the colony's power grid up so that we can use its systems.

FCO_Braun says:
:: notices the look that the counselor is giving the CTO and thinks "That's odd..." ::

ENG_Rineh says:
*CEO*: Sir, don't mean to interrupt, but if you need an engineer down there, I could go.  This engine could run itself.

CEO_Stark says:
CO: I think I can handle that, sir. And Andrew has the engine room well in hand.

CO_Krust says:
XO: Lead an away team. Engineering and security. Take a medical officer as well.

XO_Krieg says:
::smiles slightly to himself::

CTO_Terr says:
CO: If we go down with a small team, recon the area, then set up a defensive perimeter, we can bring more down if necessary.

CEO_Stark says:
*ENG*: Hold on, Andrew. The captain is making that decision now.

ENG_Rineh says:
*CEO*: No problem, Jimmy.

CTO_Terr says:
XO: I volunteer to go with you, sir.

CNS_Aeryn says:
:: thinks, la la la la ::

FCO_Braun says:
:: aside to CTO :: CTO:  You gonna need a pilot?

CO_Krust says:
CTO: Agreed, Go with Magnus, but be careful.

Lizzy says:
All: I should go.

CTO_Terr says:
FCO: I am a pilot.

CTO_Terr says:
CO: I recommend against Lizzy going, sir.

XO_Krieg says:
CO: Sir. ::to staff:: All: Mr. Terrance, Mr. Stark, Counselor, and Dr. Lee.

CEO_Stark says:
XO: Aye, sir!

CTO_Terr says:
FCO: You'll be needed here in case the ship is under attack.

CO_Krust says:
:: cringes at Lizzy's suggestion, but remains silent::

CNS_Aeryn says:
CO: Do you need my accompaniment?

CEO_Stark says:
*ENG* : Andrew, keep 'em warm till I get back. It's your engine room now.

CTO_Terr says:
FCO: As is usual when we leave.

XO_Krieg says:
::taps comm badge:: EO: Mr. Rinehart, the engine room is yours.

ENG_Rineh says:
::shrugs, pulls out his lucky spanner and gives the warp core a friendly tap:: *CEO*: I'll keep the fire burnin', sir.  Have a nice field trip.

CTO_Terr says:
XO: I would like all the team in body armor, Magnus, if that's okay?

OPSFowler says:
::listening to the conversation going on, but still working on getting through to the colony::

XO_Krieg says:
*CMO*: Dr. Lee, report to the transporter room for away team.

CMO_Lee says:
*XO*: Yes, sir.  ::heads for TR ::

CEO_Stark says:
:: taps combadge :: *ENG*: I'll try to avoid a sunburn. ::smiles ::

CSO_Fist says:
XO: Sir, while you're down there, see if you can disable whatever is generating these storms.

XO_Krieg says:
::nods grimly to CTO::

TAC_Tamek says:
CTO: Sir, the security team is ready.

CMO_Lee says:
::steps out of sickbay and heads for TR::

CTO_Terr says:
XO: I suggest using the Rameses, it's a good shuttle.

CTO_Terr says:
TO: Thank you, Tamek. Have them report to the shuttlebay.

CEO_Stark says:

CTO_Terr says:
OPS: Nancy, would you have the flight officer warm up the Rameses?

CSO_Fist says:
::tweaking the frequency modulations::

OPSFowler says:
CTO: Will do. 

CMO_Lee says:
::thinks, okay nevermind:: *XO*: Aye, sir.

XO_Krieg says:
All: Let's move out.  ::heads to TL::

CEO_Stark says:
::looks down to Andrew:: ENG: I'll be back before you know it. Try not to miss me.

CMO_Lee says:

CEO_Stark says:
::leaves Engineering for shuttle bay ::

CNS_Aeryn says:
