Transcript: USS Quirinus
SD: 10203.18
Arc: "Down the Rabbit Hole"
Episode Four: "The Name of the Game"

Recap: The CO, CNS, CMO, and CTO (who's LOA), are trapped in a place called Crossroads by little green men.  The Quirinus is following the quantum trail of the tower towards the Nirpedes system.

<<<<<<<<<<<<Resume Mission>>>>>>>>>>>>

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
:: Adjusts course and speed ::

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
XO: Sir course for Nirpedes laid in and speed is warp 9

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@::sits quietly in the corner trying to adjust the frequency on his com badge to that of Crossroads.::

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
XO:  Sir...a moment please....::stands and heads back toward the master display::

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::looks at him expectantly:: CO: So?  I'm all for the 'using the scalpel to cut through plaster" plan.

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
::nods to the XO from the chair:: FCO: Very well, ETA to the system?

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
XO: Sir ETA to Nirpedes at current speed is approx. 20 std. mins.

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
::scans the system::

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::waits in the back of the bridge::

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
FCO: Very good, keep me informed. ::stands and walks back towards the CIV:: CIV: Yes Lieutenant?

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
::adjusts the sensors to follow the matter stream, a ghost of what was:::

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::keeps his voice low::  XO:  I dunna know if you've read me dossier, but I'm not qualified to perform what you have requested of me, Sir

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
*ENG*: Cmdr. Everitt will the ship stand max warp at his time?

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::pretending the "seducing stableboy plan" was just a joke::  CO: Uh.. you weren't really serious about that were you?

CEO_LtCdr_Everitt says:
::in ME:: *FCO* Affirmative, ship's status indicates that we're capable of maximum cruise velocity.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@Doctor: any luck with the pheromone idea?

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
::follows the quantum phase signature with precision::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@Doctor: As I said, I am only asking if you were willing to use his infatuation for you.  If not, I do understand.

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
*CEO*: Affirmative. XO: powering up to max warp sir.

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@CO: Some.. ::shrugs:: but I'm not sure that I have enough supplies to keep me immune.  Not completely anyway.

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CIV: I did have the time to briefly read the crew dossiers... I don't believe I got to yours. Well, Lieutenant, you're going to have to do your best, take your lead from Commander Everitt if you need to, but for now anything that you can do is needed.

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
:: Taps console and watches as the speed graph pulls to max::

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
XO:  I'll see if I can find anything out about the planet - Commander Ved could give you a much more complete status report on ships systems, Sahr

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::scrubs at her face with the palms of her hands in frustration:: CO: Yeah, yeah.. I know.  But it just might work, regardless of how unappealing the idea is

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
:: Keeps close watch on Inertial Dampeners::

CEO_LtCdr_Everitt says:
*XO* Sir, I'm unable to increase our warp factor beyond the specifications without damaging the M/AM assembly.

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CIV: I'm sure you'll do your best, Lt.

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@CO:....and YOU get to be the one to explain it to Mac!

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
*CEO* Very well, don't push the engines any further.

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
XO:  Aye

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@Morgan: It is a decision that you must make.  ::returns to working on his communicator.:: At any rate, Doctor, we dare not risk being made unconscious a second time if we are to use the opportunity of our transport to our advantage.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@Morgan: Have the hypos standing by for the pheromone plan.  We may need the distraction.

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
XO: Sir, I have something...the trail leads to the eighth planet in the system, the world is barren, no life, no energy signatures, However, the signature occurs beneath the surface.

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@Sulek: Right.  And how exactly do we avoid that then? Avoid the unconscious part that is?  Does that mean I don't get to try and cut through the plaster?

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
*CEO*: Everitt. Speed firmly held at 9.7.

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::nods, getting the hypos reading...as much as she can::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@Morgan: If the escape does not happen instantaneously, our captors will have time to react.  They may decide that it is easier to keep us unconscious.

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
::walks back around the bridge, he turns:: CSO: Beneath the surface? ::turns back to the FCO: Raise shields, standard orbit of the Eighth planet.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@::begins running his communicator through a variety of frequency bands::

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::sighs, heads back to the computer to start sifting through the LCARS for more information on this system - when it was last surveyed, what was found, etc::

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
XO: Yes, we'll know more the closer we get, the more detailed the scans

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
XO: Aye sir. shields raised and dropping from warp.

CEO_LtCdr_Everitt says:
*FCO* Acknowledged.  I'm putting a shuttle on stand-by.  But hopefully we won't be in need of your piloting skills.

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::grinds her teeth together in frustration, really wanting to break something now::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@Morgan:  We need to get to Communications to deactivate any dampening fields.  Perhaps Wesley can also tell us about any unusual buildings that are off limits to the local populace.

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
:: Brings the ship into std. orbit as the ship moves into impulse power.::

Host FM_Little_Goo says:
@ ACTION: The Door clicks

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@Morgan: If there is such a place, it is logical to assume that the spatial anomaly is controlled from there. In that case, I will try to go there, while you and Raythan work on the Com...

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
*CEO*: Acknowledged

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CSO: Scan the area of the energy readings.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@::Stands::

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::whirls at the sound, laser held tightly in her hand::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@Morgan: Easy , Doctor.  ::moves to so that he is in clear view of the door::

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
XO:  The system was last surveyed by the USS Posiedon about 49 years ago, a barren system.  Even the M class planets were unassuming.  Nothing was found during the initial survey to warrant any follow ups, Commander.

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
::Scans the area:: XO: No energy reading of any kind - indeed no evidence of ships or civilizations

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
:: Moves hand down to the painful welts on his leg.::

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::says nothing in response, just watches the door::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
:@:crosses to the door and pulls gently on it::

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::murmurs:: CO: Is it unlocked with no one behind in then?  Give it a push...

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::frowns::  XO:  Sorry, sir, I apologize - I misread, those are N class planets, not M

Host FM_Little_Goo says:
@ ACTION: The Door opens easily

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
XO: It's even lacking in plant life

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@::He looks cautiously outside::

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
::turns to the CIV:: CIV: I was about to inquire as to that, Lt... strange though.

Host FM_Little_Goo says:
ACTION: The Quirinus enters the Nirpedes system slowing to impulse

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::tenses even further:: CO: I haven't a clue what is going on but I wouldn't mind getting out of this creepy place.. ::quietly::

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CSO: No readings of any kind? Then where is the energy going?

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
XO:  Aye...a whole lot of nothing

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@::motions the doctor to follow him and steps carefully out of the house::

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
XO: Sir we are in the system attaining std. orbit as ordered.

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::follows closely, followed by the rest of the team::

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
XO: The energy is from within the planet, the outside is barren.

Host FM_Little_Goo says:
@ ACTION: The Two step out into the small garden... there are very few humans in the square, the gate to Riverdale is closed.

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CSO: I see, how deep inside the planet are the readings coming from, can we beam there?

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::knew it had to be too good to be true::

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::wonders idly if yelling "open Sesame" would help, then snorts to herself::

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
:: Makes note to re-dress the wound after shift ::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@::crosses to the gate and begins to reach out but stops.  He picks up a rock and throws it gently at the gate::

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::keeps the CO within sight but looks around too::

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
XO: Sir we have orbit. Shields raised and holding.

Host Wesley_The_Stableboy says:
@ ::Looks up from his cart and sees the pretty new lady::

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
::looks serious:: XO: I've detected a thin layer of atmosphere. It's about one and a half kilometers down.::shakes head:: It's very cold down there.

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::sees Wesley again, attempts to paste a smile on her face - it not quite reaching her eyes::

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
FCO: Acknowledged, Commander, center your orbit over the energy readings.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@::Sees Wesley and indicates him to Morgan:: Morgan: I believe we have a ride.

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
XO: The atmosphere is thin

Host Wesley_The_Stableboy says:
@ ::blushes and tries to do his work, so the Mayor won't get mad::

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CSO: Any life forms?

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::sees him:: CO: I don't think that's what the cart is for sir...

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
XO: None, as reported

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::steels herself:: CO/self: Show time.   ::approaches Wesley::

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
XO: Aye sir. :: Adjusts orbit to geosynchronous just above energy reading site.::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@::quietly::Morgan: Remember the information we need.  Remind Wesley that he said he would show us the Communications area.

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
XO: I'm searching the area of the atmosphere. :: Intensifies scans::

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CSO: For now, prepare a probe, we can beam it into the area without risking additional crew.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@::crosses to stand behind the Doctor while she talks to the boy::

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::stops in front of Wesley, not sure what one says to someone who just led you to your captivity::

Host Wesley_The_Stableboy says:
@ ::Looks up sheepishly::  Morgan: Hi.

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
XO: It's a system of caves Sir, there are some rock formations, a little water...nothing even remotely biological though.

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@Wesley: Hi.  Uh.. interesting things going on since we got here.  Wouldn't have minded a bit of a warning.  Um.. so.. when are these gates going to open again?

Host Wesley_The_Stableboy says:
@ Morgan: No... I had to lie... I'm sorry.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@::checks to see if the frequency modulation in the communications badge has scanned any open frequencies::

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
XO: Not so much as an amoeba!

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::nods sadly:: Wesley: Had to?  I wouldn't have told anyone...  Does that mean you lied about showing me around the rest of the place too? ::injects a hopeful tone to her voice::

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
::shakes his head slightly:: CSO: Deploy a probe to take closer readings of the caves... also rescan the system we just left... there has to be something...

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@::notes that no channels have been found::

Host Wesley_The_Stableboy says:
@ Morgan: We aren't allowed out... I'm only allowed because I have an implant.

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
::fires a probe::CO Aye sir, scanning probe on approach

Host Wesley_The_Stableboy says:
@ ::Pushes aside his blonde hair on his forehead and shows a subdermal row of blinking lights::

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
:: Adjusts orbit slightly::

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
XO: I'm bringing up the log of where we were and comparing it on LRS

Host Wesley_The_Stableboy says:
ACTION: The Probe crashes into the Surface of the planet and reports nothing.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@::notes the lights::

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
FCO: Prepare to reverse course and take us back to the planet.

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::hides shock:: Wesley: Oh.  So.. ::looks down, shuffling her feet then looks back up, smiling:: Well.. you could take me out then right?  I mean, you've got the implants so that should be fine.  Besides, what could I do?  I just.. um.. kinda wanted you to show me around a little.  Like.. um.. you said something about a Communications areas..

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
:: Looks over at the CSO:: Good eye Cmdr.

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@Wesley:... stuff like that.  I've hardly seen anything around here.

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
::watches the readings on his monitor:: CSO: Perhaps beaming the probe down will work better this time.

Host Wesley_The_Stableboy says:
@ Morgan:  I'm not allowed.... ::shuffles his feet::

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
FCO: Gee thanks. XO: The probe has been destroyed

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::leans in closer, whispering:: Wesley: Awww  I won't tell.  What could it hurt?

Host Wesley_The_Stableboy says:
@ Morgan: I could be killed..

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CSO: I see that, Commander, beam in the probe.

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
:: Wonders where that statement came from?::

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
::beams in a probe:: XO: Aye Sir

Host Wesley_The_Stableboy says:
ACTION: The Probe appears in the cavern and begins sending a video feed of a green sunlit filled meadow.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@::takes out his tricorder and scans the boy's subdermal lights to see if they can be suppressed::

Host Wesley_The_Stableboy says:
@ SCANS: The Tricorder reports wood and plaster.

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::nods sadly:: Wesley: Oh.  Nevermind.  I understand.  I mean.. ah.. you were just being friendly before to get us in the gates.  You didn't actually mean anything you said.. ah.. or how you looked at me.

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
FCO: Cancel that course change... ::turns:: CSO: Confirm that this is the feed from the probe?

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
XO: I'm reading sentient made materials...

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
XO: Aye sir holding at current position.

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
XO: Wood and plaster

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@Wesley: I didn't mean to bother you or anything. ::not quite pouting, but pretty darn close::

Host Wesley_The_Stableboy says:
@ Morgan:  Uh... no... Your hot.

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CSO: Scan for the missing crew, combadge emergency signals, anything...

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
:: Deftly keeps the ship steady::

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::acting like she doesn't believe him:: Wesley: It's okay.  I said I understood.  You can stop pretending.

Host Wesley_The_Stableboy says:
@ ::Blushes furiously and looks at his feet::

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
::fine tunes the sensors:: XO: I'm showing a remarkable habitable are, grass, trees, efficient use of solar energy, still no life signs

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@::whispers::Morgan:  Perhaps he can get you through the gate so that you and I can explore, without endangering himself.

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
XO: I have something. It looks like a rotating comm badge frequency

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::peeks at him again:: Wesley: ..unless you're telling the truth this time?

Host Wesley_The_Stableboy says:
@ Morgan: They would kill me.... but you are hot.... ::suddenly gets a backbone... or some sort of bone::  I'll show you a way to get outside... meet me here after sunset.

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CSO: I'm reluctant to trust those scans completely without... A combadge frequency? Lock on and open a channel.

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
::hones in on the frequency::

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::perks up:: Wesley: Really?  You would do that for me?  ::leans in and gives him a quick kiss on his cheek::

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@Wesley: I'll be here...

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@::REB::

Host Wesley_The_Stableboy says:
@ ::Hunches over to conceal a problem and smiles and turns redder.  He picks up his cart and pushes it away::

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
::attempts to lock on to it:: XO: I can't open a channel, the quantum differential is too great

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::turns back to the Captain, blushing like crazy now:: CO: Happy now?

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::feels badly about leading the guy on..::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@Morgan: Happy? You did well, Doctor.

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
::clasps his hands together:: CSO: Keep trying, Commander. ::taps his armchair console:: *CEO* Bridge to Commander Everitt,

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@Morgan: So now we wait.  Perhaps we can find the missing settlers in the meantime.

CEO_LtCdr_Everitt says:
*XO* Everitt here.

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@Sulek: Uh huh.  Well, he agreed anyway.  But.. ::Shakes head:: messing with his feelings like that is so unfair.

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
XO: Sir, we'll lose contact with the probe in 10 minutes because the differential is degrading the phase linear relationship between the two points

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@CO: Whatever you say bossman.  ::sighs::

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
*CEO* The probe we sent to the planet has found a combadge signal, we're trying to lock onto it but there is a quantum differential, we need to overcome that.

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
::attempts to lock onto it, boosting the signal::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@Morgan:  If we can help Wesley and the others, then it will be worth a what is the expression..."broken heart"

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CSO: Keep contact with the probe as long as possible, if necessary we'll send another one down.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@Morgan: Wesley said the new arrivals lived a few door down.

CEO_LtCdr_Everitt says:
::scratches the back of his neck:: *XO* I'm on my way. ::hurries to the TL and goes directly to the bridge::

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
FCO: Bring us closer to the planet surface, Commander, perhaps that will help... not too close, however.

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::nods, keeping her guilty feelings to herself on this one::  CO: Then we should probably go meet them I guess

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@::begins walking down the street stopping one of the humans still about:: Human: I am looking for Blondie or Dagwood.

Host Wesley_The_Stableboy says:
@ ACTION:  Sulek's comm-badge chirps a little.. 

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
XO: Understood. :: Begins slow descent ::

CEO_LtCdr_Everitt says:
::in TL:: *CSO* Would it be possible to alter our comm systems to be out of this quantum reality, but more closely matched to the one on the surface?

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::freezes at the sound and then checks to make sure hers is on too::

Host Wesley_The_Stableboy says:
@ <Human with a subdermal monitor> ::Looks at Sulek with a shocked expression and hurries off::

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::looks at the CO:: CO: Well that went well.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@::looking down and then pressing the badge:: COMM:  This is Sulek.

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
*CEO*: It's theoretical...however I'm not sure how we would implement it

Host Wesley_The_Stableboy says:
@ ACTION: The Comm-badge doesn't do anything, but occasionally chirps, it seems random

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::disappointed::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@Morgan: I believe we are on our own.  Begin by knocking on a few doors.  ::Takes the combadge and set it to stay at the frequency of the next chirp::

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
::focuses on the commbadge again::XO: The comm badge is attempting to communicate.... with the probe! And we're loosing contact with the probe

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
FCO: Maintain a geosync orbit over the probe's location and lower the ship a little more.

CEO_LtCdr_Everitt says:
::enters the bridge:: CSO: How does one go from one quantum reality to another?  If we can't physically go from one to another, perhaps we could send a comm signal, or transporter signal through.

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@CO: For now. ::knowing that the crew is looking for them.. or at least, she hopes::

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::starts knocking on doors::

Host Wesley_The_Stableboy says:
@ ACTION: Suddenly the next house they were going knock on, four floating gurneys float out, with bodies on them covered in white sheets.

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
XO: Sir. We have dropped nearly 200km already. I will attempt to gets us closer.

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
CEO: I'd consider a particle beam of the right density

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@::moves to the next door, knocking asking any who answer about the settlers::

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::jumps back in surprise::

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CSO: Tie in our communications system with the Probe, set it to relay our comm signal. ::taps his console:: COMM: Combadge: Quirinus to away team, keep responding on this frequency. ::turns:: CSO: Set that to repeat.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@::crosses quickly to the gurneys and pulls back one of the sheets::

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::looks at the gurneys and then at Sulek:: CO: Think anyone would notice if we hopped a ride under those sheets? ::softly::

Host Wesley_The_Stableboy says:
@ ACTION: The Body is of the lead agriculturist from the Seeder.

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
:: Stays mindful of the thin atmospheric layer::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@Morgan: A possible idea, if they will get us through the gates.

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
::Ties in communications directly to the intermittent probe, setting up a relay to repeat the commanders words:: XO: Done.

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@Sulek: well.. yeah.  There is that part too..

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
::sits back in the chair, chews his lip slightly in thought::

Host Wesley_The_Stableboy says:
ACTION: The Connection to the Probe is completely lost

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@CO: now, if the gate opens we could just walk on out with them...

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@Morgan: Or perhaps if we just follow them.

Host Wesley_The_Stableboy says:
@ ACTION: The gurneys head away from the gate, further into the compound.

CEO_LtCdr_Everitt says:
::thinks for a moment, then submits:: CSO: Ah, alright.  Formulate your best plan, and let me know what needs to be done.

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
XO: It seams our actions were in vain

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::scowls:: CO: There goes THAT plan!

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
::stands and walks around to the CEO and CSO:: CSO: I don't believe so... I think we've ascertained that there's more down there than caves and nothing.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@Morgan: Still they must be planning to remove the bodies.  Stay with them until we are sure.

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@CO: If you say so... ::follows the gurneys::

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
:: Feels the pain from the welts in his leg and begins to rub the wound again::

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CEO/CSO: All right... we have the combadge signal from one of the away team down there, a quantum barrier that it seems to be on the other side of...

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@::moves with Morgan and the AT following the gurneys::

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
XO: But the thin layer of atmosphere contains at least vegetation....

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::glances over at the CSO's readings as he waits for the LCARS to finish collating::  CSO:  What's that?  ::points to a reading from the 6th planet in the system::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@::tries his combadge again:: COMM: Quirinus: this is Sulek, Lock on and transport.

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CSO: All right, beam down another probe, let's see if we can set a relay up.

CEO_LtCdr_Everitt says:
CSO: And a particle stream is the only thing that can maintain contact with both sides of the barrier simultaneously?

Host Wesley_The_Stableboy says:
@ <Probe> COMM: *Sulek*: Quirinus to away team, keep responding on this frequency.  ::Starts to repeat::

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
CEO: Not that I'm entirely sure of any of it... :::Looks at what the CIV is showing him::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@Morgan: It seems we have been contacted by a relay.

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::wonders if the deeper they go as they follow the gurneys...:: CO: It suddenly starts working as we get deeper into this place?

FCO_Cmdr_Ved says:
:: Listens to the CIV intently and begins to plot new course in anticipation of a move::

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
CSO  ::points::  Isn't that a building...there...along the planets equator...

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@CO: I don't care how... I just want them to find us.. and get us outta here!

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@Morgan: the geography of the Crossroads may be like the geography of the planet is set upon...in constant flux.

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
::looks over at the CIV and CSO:: CIV: What type of building?

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::getting confuzzled:: CO: er.. right.

CSO_LtCmdr_Stange says:
CIV: A Building? ::Cranes to look::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
@Morgan: Theoretically, the stable source may be like the tower.  The center of the Crossroads.

Host Wesley_The_Stableboy says:
@ ACTION: The Repeating Comm squawks and is silent.

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CSO: Beam another probe into the tunnels, near the last one... if it's still there. ::moves forward on the bridge:: FCO: Prepare to leave orbit.

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::hits her commbadge:: COMM: Quirinus: You hear me up there?  Get me outta here before I have to actually make out with the teenager!

CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::fumbles around on the console, getting the image to refine and zoom::  CSO:  There.......I think we found our tower.....

CMO_LCmd_Morgan says:
@::stops dead:: CO: It stopped... go back.. go back to where we still had it...
