::Nods to Savek::  ~~~~CO:  And were our Admiral is concerned, more so.~~~~

Host Savek says:
CSO: At Ease.

Host Savek says:
All: You are here to take part in a training exersize based on unfortunate events that occurred begining stardate 10003.19, The mission orders they were given you are hereby given, they had a galaxy class, so you are in a "galaxy class"... This is Starfleet's means of testing that other incidents don't occur.....

XO-Affleck says:
::Sneaks in somehwere, trying not to be seen yet::

CSO_Yamamoto says:
::stands at ease, listens::

CTO_Friday says:
::listening to the Admiral attentively::

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
::listens::

Host Savek says:
All: The Orders :A distress call has been received from a team of anthropological researchers studying the inhabitants of Charnok; your ship is ordered to respond and investigate the situation.

Host Savek says:
The Charnokan society is an industrialized society at approximately early 21st Century Earth level of development, and is roughly split into two power groups. Previous reports by the anthrolopogical team, led by Dr. Megan O'Rourke, are available in the computer database.

Host Savek says:
Since the distress call, no further communication from the O'Rourke Team has been received. You are ordered to proceed at once to Charnok, assess the situation, and provide assistance to the team in accordance with their objectives and the Prime Directive.

Cmd_tr`Keir says:
::Searches her memory for the incident, and frowns as she listens and it comes to her::

Host Savek says:
CO: Any Questions ?

OPS_Ambrose says:

Cmd_tr`Keir says:
::Watches as the admiral leaves then turns to her husband::

CTO_Friday says:

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
All: Stations everyone.

Cmd_tr`Keir says:
::Following him, she takes the counselors seat near by::

FCO_Schultz says:
CO: We are approaching the system.....should I enter standard orbit ?

EO_Q`tor says:
::familiarizing myself with engineering systems::

CTO_Friday says:
::scans the planet, trying to find the cause of the distress signal::

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
FCO: Not yet...but stay within sensor range...

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO:  Sensors show an extensive system of satellites in orbit.

Megan_ORourke says:
@::on the planet surface, behind the "duck blind" cover::

Cmd_tr`Keir says:
::Pulling up the arm console, she taps into the computers data base::

FCO_Schultz says:
CO: Aye.

XO-Affleck says:
::Steps into the command area noting it's slightly more "fluffy" than the QIb, too many creature comforts::

Megan_ORourke says:
@::reviewing latest results, frowning::

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
CSO: Can you determine their scanning abilities?

CTO_Friday says:
::wishes for his chair back on the QIb::

OPS_Ambrose says:
CO: Sir according to the Charmokan archives, their technology  is able to scan us if we enter standard orbit.

Cmd_tr`Keir says:
CO:  According to the data base, we are dealing with two different sectors.  One is highly militaristic, following the lines of communism.  The other is more passive.

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
::nods to OPS::FCO: Keep us out of range.

FCO_Schultz says:
CO: So it has been ordered so it shall be done..  ::G::

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
OPS: Can you make contact with the team ?

Cmd_tr`Keir says:
::Looks at the new FCO with raised eyebrow::

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO, XO, Cmd.:  From what we know so far, the satellite net is used for launch detection on the planet.  Finely tuned to track objects smaller than half a meter.

Megan_ORourke says:
@::paces in her office, wondering when the Federation is ever going to show up::

Cmd_tr`Keir says:
CSO:  From what distance out?

Megan_ORourke says:
@::receives another report from a colleague, frowning as she reads, noting that their recovery efforts are not achieving results::

XO-Affleck says:
CO: If we adjust our shields correctly we should be able to block out there scans unless they got onto of us. That way we can stay at full power without the cloak.

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
CSO: Can we enter transporter range?

OPS_Ambrose says:
CO: Sir I am trying to hail them on the comm sir COMM: Anthropological team: This is the USS Expendable do you read us?

EO_Q`tor says:
XO: Sir, we have no cloak.

Megan_ORourke says:
@::mutters to herself::  Just like those glory boys in Starfleet, taking their time to get here when the situation is looming disastrous::

CMO_Dan says:
::leaves station and walks into turbolift doors::

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
XO: So they couldn't see us at all?

XO-Affleck says:
::Grins:: EO: Good point...

Megan_ORourke says:
@::hears an underling on the communicator, and realizes the Federation has finally arrived::

Megan_ORourke says:
@::takes over::  COM:  Federation Vessel:  This is O'Rourke.  It's about time you got here...

CSO_Yamamoto says:
Cmd: Orbital pattern shows three tiers.  Ultra High orbit 41,000 km.  Another at 20,000 km, and a third at 500km.

CMO_Dan says:
::sickbay appears all the sudden with the bridge behind him::

OPS_Ambrose says:
CO: I have them on the COMM Sir.

Cmd_tr`Keir says:
::Looks over at the FCO to make sure he heard the CSO::

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
COM: Megan: This is Captain tr`Keir of the U.S.S. Expendable, what is your situation?

MO_Melody says:
::Glances up at the doctor::  CMO:  Hello sir.

CTO_Friday says:
::waiting to figure out what they're going to do::

Cmd_tr`Keir says:
CSO: Thank you.

CMO_Dan says:
::sees MO and nods:: MO: Hello Lieutenant.

Megan_ORourke says:
@COM:  tr'Keir:  As I said, about time.  Two of our researchers have bailed out of the duckblind, intending, I fear, to affect events on this world.  They must, at all costs, be stopped.

FCO_Schultz says:
::notices the Cmdr. looking at him:: Self: ::whisper:: Now what have I done.

MO_Melody says:
::Waves her hand around the room::  CMO:  I don't know about you, but I could really get used to this type of sickbay again.  Klingon ships are OK, but the size of their rooms...

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
COM: Megan: Any idea where they were heading?

CMO_Dan says:
::walks over to Federation desk:: MO:Yes, Klingon sickbays are small.

Cmd_tr`Keir says:
::Hears Schultz::  FCO:  Make orbital correction in correlation to the CSO's data.

CSO_Yamamoto says:
::gets up, walks to Cmd. tr` Kier's station:: Cmd: ::whispers::  The original mission suffered damage in their first attempt to orbit.  They made a second attempt with modified shields.  Do you know if it worked?

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
::looks at Cmdr. Affleck:: This is not going to be easy....

MO_Melody says:
::walks over to him::  CMO:  The downside to sims, is that everything seems to be here in order.  Not much to do.  Did you need me for anything?  ::looks hopeful::

FCO_Schultz says:
Cmd: Aye ::makes the corrections needed from the data provided my the CSO::

Megan_ORourke says:
@COM:  tr'Keir:  At last sighting, Randac was headed towards the Northern capital city;  T'Sele to the opposite, presumably to equalize Randac's influence.

Cmd_tr`Keir says:
CSO:  Uncertain.  Lets ask them.

XO-Affleck says:
CO: You can say that again, the prime directive is always a tricky one.

CSO_Yamamaoto says:
Cmd:  Ask who.  We are them, remember?

CTO_Friday says:
::checking sensors to see if he can verify what Megan is saying::

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
COM: Megan: Do you know if they were wearing any kind of transmitting or tracking device?

CMO_Dan says:
MO_Melody: Well I don't see much we can actually do here so I guess you can explore around, go through doors and see where they lead.

Megan_ORourke says:
@COM:  tr'Keir:  They were not.  Their comm devices were left here at the base station.  Captain, time is of the essence here; they must be stopped before they reach their destinations.

CSO_Yamamoto says:
XO: Sir, I believe that we should proceed with caution lest one of the factions perceive us as an incursion by the other.

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
COM: Megan: We will attempt to locate them.

OPS_Ambrose says:
CSO: Try to scan for Bajoran and Vulcan lifesigns, I will boost your sensor power

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
All: Suggestions? We have to people on the loose down there.

Cmd_tr`Keir says:
::Looks at the CSO with a twinkle of humor in her eyes::  CSO:  Understood.  I believe it did work on the original ship.

CTO_Friday says:
CO: ::quietly:: I'm picking up Vulcan lifesigns in the South.

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
All: One heading to each faction it seems.

Megan_ORourke says:
@::frowns to herself::  COM:  Captain:  It shouldn't be that difficult...  There aren't that many Bajorans and Vulcans on the planet....  ::sounds really irritated::

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
CTO: How many?

MO_Melody says:
::Sighs and nods her head to the CMO::  CMO:  Ok....

CTO_Friday says:
CO: Just one. It must be T'Sele.

EO_Q`tor says:
CO: Scan for their life signs and beam them aboard.

XO-Affleck says:
CO: If we could narrow the search we could try going down 'undercover' as it were, make ourselves look like the natives.

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
OPS: Can you get a lock on that lifeform?

CSO_Yamamoto says:
::smiles:: Cmd: ::chuckles lightly::  I was afraid you were serious.

CMO_Dan says:
::goes through the desk in sickbay::

CSO_Yamamoto says:
::returns to station::

OPS_Ambrose says:
CO: Trying sir ::attempts to get a lock on them::

OPS_Ambrose says:
CO: No Sir, they are too far away.

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
::nods::

CTO_Friday says:
CO: Sir, the Vulcan is in a large city in the southern faction. It would be pretty hard to beam down in the middle of it without being seen, even if we were disguised as the natives.

OPS_Ambrose says:
CO: We could try to take a shuttle down there, I think it is possible to mask it from their detection satellites.

Megan_ORourke says:
@COM: Captain:  Did you hear me?  TIme is of the essence; surely a Federation vessel with a crew as fine as yours should easily be able to locate our wayward researchers.   They musn't be allowed to make contact ...  ::sounds really nagging::

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
All: We have to get closer...

Host Karpok says:
%T"Sele: I have given that data to our reserachers, they are building the "shuttle" now.

MO_Melody says:
Self:  Well, I always wondered what it would be like on a galaxy class... pity she is not real ::heads out to see what the computer shows her::

Cmd_tr`Keir says:
CO:  If we get closer, we will be detected.

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
COM: Megan: We understand....we are working to resolve the situation.

CTO_Friday says:
OPS: Where would we land without being seen from the ground though?

T`Sele says:
%Karpok: How soon until it's ready?

Megan_ORourke says:
@::closes the Comm, feeling really irritated that things have gotten so far out of hand::

OPS_Ambrose says:
CTO: We wouldn't have to land, we could beam them directly of the planet with the shuttlecraft.

XO-Affleck says:
CSO: Are there any 'holes' in satellite detection grid we could go into for a short time to beam down and then get picked up later?

FCO_Schultz says:
OPS: ::Whisper:: Are u nuts......that would possible mean that I would have to fly that thing......

Host Karpok says:
% T'Sele: We have, as we agreed, distributed the knowledge among the various Countries here, in the south... they are all rushing to be the first

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
::thinking::

CTO_Friday says:
::considers that, thinking it would be difficult to beam down somewhere that they wouldn't be seen::

Megan_ORourke says:
@::putters about in the duckblind, growing more annoyed by the moment, wondering what Starfleet's finest is doing::

FCO_Schultz says:
CO: We could do a planet to shuttle transport.....that would eliminate the need to land on the surface.

Cmd_tr`Keir says:
CO/XO:  Perhaps we could disguise a shuttle with one of the holomitters to resemble some form of an asteroid.  They could enter the atmosphere and retrieve the missing individuals.

T`Sele says:
%Karpok: I have the first batch of datapadds ready to distribute.

OPS_Ambrose says:
CO: The only trouble is beaming them out without anybody seeing it, we should have somebody down there to follow their movements?

CSO_Yamamaoto says:
CO:  If we modulate our shields to match their satellites frequency we might be able to pass undetected.  Proximity detectors might be a problem.

XO-Affleck says:
CO/Cmd: I thknk they would try to destory the asteroid to prevent a desaster, wich would either destroy the shuttle as well or atleast disable the holoemitters.

CTO_Friday says:
::listening to everyones ideas, interested::

Host Karpok says:
%T'Sele: Good , this will go out over the net immediately

FCO_Schultz says:
CO: There should not be any problem if we modulate the shields on the shuttle craft .........

Megan_ORourke says:
@::frustated with the situation, feeling like she must take control::

OPS_Ambrose says:
CO: Do you want me to make the modifications to the Shuttlecraft?

T`Sele says:
%Karpok: Is our bandwidth sufficent? I was thinking perhaps we should implement a Delta Seven Line?

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
All: Let's start modifying a shuttle...

Cmd_tr`Keir says:
CSO:  Perhaps if we were able to do that with a shuttle.  Then proximity would not be a problem and we would have more movability.

XO-Affleck says:
CO: Could we modulate the shields to make us look like one of their light aircraft?

CSO_Yamamaoto says:
CO:  Aye.  Cmd: Perhaps.  The shuttle is compact.

Host Karpok says:
T'Sele: It is only an OC48 , But It is the fastest we have

EO_Q`tor says:
XO: Sir couldn't we disable the satellites somehow....make it look like a natural occurance. That would leave enough of a gap in the detection grid that a shuttle could get in and beam them out.

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
All: XO, CSO, CNS, FCO you are on the Shuttle team.

Megan_ORourke says:
@::opens the comm link again::  Federation Vessel:  What is happening?  Time is critical here.... every minute that passes increases the risk of contamination...

CSO_Yamamaoto says:
XO:  Sir.  Wouldn't a aircraft from one faction be seen as an attack by the other?

T`Sele says:
%Karpok: It will be sufficent. It will have to be.

XO-Affleck says:
EO: Good idea. Could we simulate some of the effects of a solar flare? That causes tonnes of EMP disturbances.

Cmd_tr`Keir says:
XO:  Not if the it was farily small and the trajectory towards burning up.  It is also unlikely at this stage they could get the necessary equipment to destroy a planet approacher.

Host Karpok says:
%T'Sele : It is after all 4 G /sec

CSO_Yamamaoto says:
::gets up to go with the shuttle team::

T`Sele says:
%Karpok: And I believe we shall have more than sufficent time.

Host Karpok says:
%::begins feeding data in ::

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
::looks around wondering if he was heard::

Megan_ORourke says:
@COM:  Federation Vessel:  I said, what is happening??

CMO_Dan says:
::replicates something to drink::

Cmd_tr`Keir says:
EO:  If these records are any indications, that would catch their attention right away.  They are rather suspicous of anything.

EO_Q`tor says:
XO: Yes sir, that would not be a problem at all.

XO-Affleck says:
ShuttleTeam: Shuttle Team, let's get going.

FCO_Schultz says:
::get's up and heads with the shuttle team:: OPS: Don't miss me to much now ya hear?  ::Grins::

EO: Q`tor you go with them too.

Megan_ORourke says:
@COM:  tr'Keir: Formulating a plan??  You don't understand the gravity of this situation....

EO_Q`tor says:
Cmd: I understand, but how could they be suspicious of a solar flare?

EO_Q`tor says:
CO: Aye sir.

Cmd_tr`Keir says:

CO: Sir should I beam the Shuttlecraft to the Hangarbay?

CTO_Friday says:
CO: Aye sir ::firing at the satellites with low level phasers, just to disable them::

Cmd_tr`Keir says:
#::Feeling a sense of helplessness, knowing others are doing their jobs.::

EO_Q`tor says:
#XO: Shields are holding sir.

FCO_Schultz says:
#::speeds up the shuttle to 1/3 impulse:: Self: Lets see if they can catch up.

CTO_Friday says:
CO: Ok most of the satellites have been disabled, they won't be able to see us on sensors.

Megan_ORourke says:
@::keeps badgering over the comm::  COM:  Captain:  What is happening?  I'm seeing what appears to be an air battle....  I reiterate, contamination of the populace must be avoided at all costs..

Host Karpok says:
AS THE FCO GOES TO 1/3 IMPULSE THE FIGHTERS ARE LEFT FAR BEHIND

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
OPS: Contact the shuttle and get them to return to ship.

XO-Affleck says:
#CSO: What's our first port of call?

OPS_Ambrose says:
CO: Sir the planetary systems will be able to see us in 2 minutes.

FCO_Schultz says:
# All: Everyone all right?

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
OPS: Belay that...

Cmd_tr`Keir says:
#All:  Why were they able to detect us?

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
OPS: All stop.

CTO_Friday says:
::this isn't going to look good on our report...::

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
COM: Shuttle: Report.

OPS_Ambrose says:
CO: Aye sir :stops the ship::

FCO_Schultz says:
#Cmd: don't know.......maby where a little to late to prevent the contamination!!!

CSO_Yamamaoto says:
#Self:  Well.  So much for GO #1 XO: Southern capital city.  I have a lock on vulcan life signs.  Flight control has the coordinates.

CTO_Friday says:
::is pleasently surprised that he doesn't get violently jerked forward when the ship stops::

Megan_ORourke says:
@::very irritated at lack of response::  COM:  Federation Vessel:  I ask again, what is happening?

Cmd_tr`Keir says:
#FCO:  Perhaps... but that is not the way things sounded from the research team.

XO-Affleck says:
#FCO: Let's go there.

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
COM: Megan: Our shuttle was detected.

EO_Q`tor says:
#Cmd_tr'Keir: I think they spotted us when we lost power.

OPS_Ambrose says:
CO: The Charmok has not seen to much, we should emmit a emp pulse towards the ship, that should neutralize the enemy fighters

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
OPS: Back us off....

Megan_ORourke says:
@::thinks to self::  Oh great, fine help this lot is turning out to be...

FCO_Schultz says:
# XO : Aye ::enters the coordinates and fly's toward the great unknown::

OPS_Ambrose says:
CO: Aye sir. ::backs the ship up::

XO-Affleck says:
#EO: Prepare to get a TRansporter lock as soon as we're in range. Now that doesn't mean transport, just get ready to...::Smiles::

Cmd_tr`Keir says:
#::nods at the EO::

CTO_Friday says:
::watches the shuttle closely as it goes about the planet, hoping they aren't detected again::

EO_Q`tor says:
#XO: Aye sir.

Megan_ORourke says:
@::considers for a few moments, and then cuts the comm::

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
::trying to imagines the look on Admiral Saveks face right now::

EO_Q`tor says:
#::has transporters standing by::

CSO_Yamamaoto says:
#Self:  Deja' vu.

XO-Affleck says:
#FCO:Once in range, start circling withing the Transporter Range.

Host Karpok says:
AS THE SHUTTLE SPEEDS SOUTH THE CTO CAN DETECT THE PINGING OF RADAR

FCO_Schultz says:
# XO : Aye.

CTO_Friday says:
CO: Sir I think they may have been detected again on planetary radar...

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
CTO: Anything we can do to block it?

Megan_ORourke says:
@::comes to a decision::

XO-Affleck says:
#CSO: Report, are we in range yet?

CMO_Dan says:
::looks around and sees if he can activate a emh::

CTO_Friday says:
CO: They've already modified shields to NOT be detected, I don't know what else they could do except get out, and that obviously isn't an option.

CSO_Yamamaoto says:
#XO:  Aye. Sir.  Just coming into range.  Adjusting shields to be non-reflective to there 'radar'.

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
CTO: Anything we can do from here to block it?

CTO_Friday says:
CO: If they tried flying under the radar they'd be seen...

Megan_ORourke says:
@::calls her second in command in to their office, and they discuss the situation for a few minutes, arguing for most of that time::

OPS_Ambrose says:
CTO, CO: We could emmit high tetryon emmission towards the scanning source, that should cause a systemswide failure to their systems.

EO_Q`tor says:
#XO: Sir, I understand the need to observe the Prime Directive, but as we have already been detected I belive we should just transport them as soon as we are in range and then get staright back to the QIb...er rather the Expendable.

CTO_Friday says:
CO: Short of destroying their radar base I don't think so. Not unless we got a lot closer.

Host Karpok says:
%T'Sele : I have just recieved a report  from our Warning stations...someone comes very fast, and it is not our friends from up north , unless they have built theirs already.

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
::nods::

CTO_Friday says:
OPS: How close would we have to be to get them there though?

CMO_Dan says:
Computer: Activate the emh. ::looks around::

T`Sele says:
%Karpok: Lets increase scan resolution and try to identify them.....

CSO_Yamamaoto says:
#::scans for transponder signals from civilian aircraft::

Host Karpok says:
%T'Sele: But we are already going to Defense position One

Cmd_tr`Keir says:
#EO:  But what have they detected?  Do they know?

XO-Affleck says:
#EO: Noted, but I want to see if we can pluck him out while he's alone first.

OPS_Ambrose says:
CO: I could boost the power to the transporter, in safe distance I would say

CSO_Yamamaoto says:
#XO:  I have transporter lock on the vulcan life signs.

Megan_ORourke says:
@::attention suddenly caught by the readings coming in from the South::

EO_Q`tor says:
#Cmd: Would they know what a transporter beam is?

XO-Affleck says:
#CSO: Is he, ermm. Are they alone?

T`Sele says:
%Karpok: Yes, I suppose we should be more pro-active.

Megan_ORourke says:
@COM:  Federation Vessel:  We've just detected that the South is going to full combat status.

FCO_Schultz says:
# ::get's ready to sircle the location of the vulcan::

CSO_Yamamaoto says:
#XO: No. sir.  There are several planetary natives in close proximity.

Cmd_tr`Keir says:
#EO:  Technically, no.

Host Karpok says:
%T'Sele: I can't afford to be caught unawares.... It was too fast to tell what it was, but they should be here....soon

XO-Affleck says:
#EO: We even if they don't, especially if they don't, we shouldn't expose them to our level of technology.

OPS_Ambrose says:
CO: Do you want be to make to take the ship closer, It would be outside the planetary scanning range?

CMO_Dan says:
::emh appears near the door::

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
COM: Megan: Understood...

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
OPS: Not yet....

XO-Affleck says:
#ShuttleCrew: Any suggestions on how to get this vulcan out undetected?

EO_Q`tor says:
#Cmd: We could set phasers to stun and stun everyone in the immediate area and beam the two aboard

Host Karpok says:
%T'Sele: I suggest we go to the bunker

CSO_Yamamaoto says:
#XO:  Sir.  If we fail.  I suggest that the Captain breaks the temporal directive.

Cmd_tr`Keir says:
#XO:  Some sort of dervision, but the Vulcan may be expecting that.

T`Sele says:
%Karpok: Agreed. ::gathers up padds and takes them with her::

Megan_ORourke says:
@::dismisses her second in command, and considers for another moment, wondering if the Federation officers will be able to resolve this situation::

CMO_Dan says:
::stares at the hologram::

FCO_Schultz says:
#XO : How about a transporter code 1......then it would apear that somebody has shoot the vulcan.

Host Karpok says:
%::leads the way down the steps to a bunker lined with Copper mesh and many high powered random fields ::

CSO_Yamamaoto says:
#FCO:  Who would be doing the shooting?

OPS_Ambrose says:
CO: Sir, it might be advisable to beam somebody down to see that the rest of the anthropology team does not do anything foolish, tensions are high sir.

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
::waiting to see the outcome of the shuttle mission::

XO-Affleck says:
#::thinks about a diversion but s interupted by the FCO:: FCO: Good idea.

Cmd_tr`Keir says:
#XO:  I am concerned about time.  We need to retrieve him quickly so that we may get to the other.

T`Sele says:
% ::follows Karpok, muttering about always being the one to carry everything::

XO-Affleck says:
#CSO: Wouldn't really matter, they wouldn't need to explain it. could be a hidden enemy wepon or somehting for all they know.

Megan_ORourke says:
@::wishes she could be sure of what is the right thing to do, still debating in her own mind::

CSO_Yamamaoto says:
#XO:  Vulcan lifesigns are gone, sir!!!

CTO_Friday says:
CO: Sir, the vulcan...he's gone! I can't find him anywhere on sensors.

Host Karpok says:
%::seals the door ::

Host CO_tr`Keir says:
CTO: What?

Cmd_tr`Keir says:
#CSO:  gone?  Gone where?

T`Sele says:
% ::drops the padds on a table::

FCO_Schultz says:
#All: His what???????

CSO_Yamamaoto says:
#XO: I..I..I don't know.  He just vanished!

CTO_Friday says:
CO: He just disappeared. Poof! No more Vulcan.
EO_Q`tor says:
::hits console in frustration::

XO-Affleck says:
#EO: OK rig the transporter to make.... ::Interupted:: CSO: Gone Where?
