Transcript: USS Quirinus NCC 83942
Stardate: 10304.07
Episode Four: Thunder on the Horizon

Summary: The Quirinus remains in orbit of Gelia Prime, preparing to beam up the duck blind team in fear of Storm action. Deborah Craven, one of the most infamous Storm agents, has been captured and is currently being held in the Quirinus' brig. What happens now is anyone's guess.

Host Craven says:
::Seated in a brig cell, legs crossed on the bench. She stares silently at the force field::
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::on the bridge at OPS::
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
Duty FCO: Take up to a high orbit, but remain within transporter range
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
:: At Science One on the bridge, working on the data retrieved from the Gelia Minor base computer ::
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
<FCO>: Aye Sir: Does so::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::arrives at security and heads down the corridor to the brig::
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::notices her fingernails are chipped::
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::From the big chair:: CSO: Mr. Kraight, scan for any cloaked locations on the planet
MO_Ensign_Munro says:
::Takes instruments and begins testing them::
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::makes an appointment for a manicure once her shift is over::
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
XO: Aye, sir.  :: turns to sensor panel and begins tapping in commands ::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::enters brig and crosses to cell holding Craven:: Craven: Deborah Craven, formerly Ensign Craven of Starfleet and now Storm operative, I believe.  I am Captain Sulek.
Host Craven says:
::Tilts head:: CO: Captain Sulek, Commanding Officer of the Quirinus. Formerly a lot of things. I know who you are. I'm too exhausted for pleasantries ... actually I'm too exhausted for everything, but I suppose you're not going to take that for an answer, no?
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
::in office going over intelligence reports on Storm::
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
XO: Commander, planetary scan reveals no evidence of any cloaking devices in operation on the surface.
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::had heard there were lots of cute guys on board when she was assigned to the Quirinus.  Wonders where they are all hiding::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Craven: No.  You took a great risk of greeting us on screen.  Surely, you realized that you might be identified, especially given my background with Storm.
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CSO: Good....still no signs of alien life forms other than the natives and the scientists? We need to be sure the area is free of Storm contagion.
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
XO:  You know.. when I thought I saw that Andorian, it looked like a mine shaft he was coming out of.  Did I mention that?
Host Craven says:
CO: No kidding. That's what I get for being lax ... I wasn't exactly counting on the Quirinus itself to be rolling into my backyard. Any other vessel wouldn't have bothered doing a background check. ::Momentary pause:: I'm too cute.
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
OPS: A mine shaft? Hmm. CSO: Pay special attention to any subterranean chambers. OPS: Hail the duckblind. Make sure they are not in need of assistance.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Craven: I am not affected by cute.  I do not suppose that you would care to elaborate on Storm's mining interest on the planet?
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
XO: I can't be positive, sir, but none of our scans have found any non-Gelian life signs.
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
XO:  Yes Sir!  Right away Sir!
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
*MO*: Harriet, where are you?
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::frowns:: CSO: What life form is it?
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::hails the scientists and asks them if they are still okay with being down there::
MO_Ensign_Munro says:
*CTO*: I am in sickbay... why?
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
::begins running scans of the planet to find any other Storm agents::
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::looks at the operations officer, wondering about her reaction::
Host Craven says:
::Quirks eyebrow:: CO: We're mining here? Wow! Sure did miss that memo.
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
*MO*: I need your help with tuning some settings here on some settings for the bio sensors, I am trying to find any other Storm agents on the planet
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
C: Computer: Correlate planetary scans with geologic data from the base computer. Query: Are there any minerals, or combinations of minerals, present on the planetary surface or below the surface that can act as natural shields against sensor scans?
Host Craven says:
<Computer> CSO: Processing.
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
XO:  They'd like to send up some non-essential personnel, but a few want to stay at their work.
MO_Ensign_Munro says:
*CTO*: I will be down as soon as I can, where are you?
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Craven: So you know nothing about the mine on the surface.  You must be more lax in your intelligence than I would have thought.
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
*MO*: My office
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
OPS: Very well. Have those that are coming aboard beamed up. Keep in contact with the remaining scientists
MO_Ensign_Munro says:
*CTO*: Understood. ::Walks out the sickbay doors and through the corridors::
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
XO:  Yes Sir!
Host Craven says:
::Grins and taps her forehead:: CO: That's me, ignorant to the end.
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
:: turns back to the analysis of the base computer records ::
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::notifies security that they will have a few guests arriving in the transporter room and to confirm the identity of each::
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
*CO*: Sir, I need to speak with you a second
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CSO: Anything?
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::notifies the duckblind staff to prepare to beam up::
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::is impressed by her efficiency::
Host Craven says:
<Computer> CSO: Correlation complete. No detected minerals have ability to deflect sensor equipment at current settings.
MO_Ensign_Munro says:
::Walks up to the CTO's office and hits the button to the right of it::
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
*MO*: Come in
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Craven: Then what exactly are you doing here? ::steps back:: Excuse me.  ::Moves to the other side of the room:: *Telarus* Go ahead.
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
XO: Interesting.... Commander, there is nothing in the base records that relates in any way to possible Storm operations on the planet. I am beginning to think that if Craven kept computer records, they were not stored in the base computer. However...
MO_Ensign_Munro says:
::Walks in smiling::
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::verifies that security is in place and begins transporting the duckblind staff::
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
*OPS*: Ensign Cherry, please beam the staff of the duckblind when you are ready to, to a holding area in the cargo bay 1, we need to screen them first
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
*CO*: Sir, I am unable to pick up any other life signs of either that of the original scientists and crew or of the Storm agents, Craven could have been working as a Splinter Cell.
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
*CO*: All the bio signs that we are picking up from the surface are inconclusive
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::quickly adjust the transport to send them all to the cargo bay::
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CSO: Which leads us where? To an alternate location.
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
XO: The survey records do indicate an unusually high number of monitoring devices were placed in and around a region known as the Nikkin Valley, on the southern continent.
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
::whispers and smiles back:: MO: Give me a second...
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
*CTO*:  Ready to transport to cargo bay one.
Host Craven says:
::Leans back::
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::thinks maybe she's not as efficient as she thought::
MO_Ensign_Munro says:
::Walks up to the CTO's desk and listens carefully::
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
XO: Yes, sir. It might be worth conducting a second search of the base, looking for data storage devices disguised as something else.
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::begins transporting the personnel to the cargo bay this time::
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CSO: scan the area. Be creative in your means. We're looking for anything cloaked that could emit a field big enough to enclose a contingent of beings
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
*Telarus* Understood.  Sulek out.  ::crosses back to the cell:: Craven: Now, I believe I had asked you why Storm has placed an operative here?  or is it that the new Storm no longer has a use for you talents?
Host Craven says:
CO: Hmmm, keep listing theories ... I'll choose the most creative one and let you know ...
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
XO: I'll try, sir.    :: turns back to sensor panel ::
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
Computer: Engage maximum security protocols on Cargo Bay 1, Authorization Telarus 11 Alpha
Host Craven says:
<Computer> CTO: Acknowledged.
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
MO: Hi Harriet, sorry that I have been busy. My schedule has been hectic all week long
MO_Ensign_Munro says:
CTO: You wanted me sir.
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
*CTO*:  Transport in progress
Host Craven says:
ACTION: The non-essential personnel from the duckblind are beamed up to the Cargo Bay on the Quirinus where security personnel begin to screen them.
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CSO: Is the Nikkon province populated?
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
MO: You don't have to be so formal when it's just you and me
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
:: sets up tight-beam enhanced multimodal scan of Nikkin Valley, and commandeers several sensor pallets from the lateral array to augment the sweep ::
MO_Ensign_Munro says:
CTO: I know what you mean.
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
XO: Checking the base records, sir...
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::sends the quarter's assignments to the security team in the cargo bay and hopes they are nice to the poor scared scientists::
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
::hears Ensign Cherry:: *OPS*: Acknowledged, Thank You.
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
*CTO*:  Anytime Sir!
MO_Ensign_Munro says:
::Grins and blushes:: David: I..I know but we are on duty and all so.... you know.
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::wonders if she's being overly enthusiastic and vows to tone it down::
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::Hears Cherry perk up in background....is she alright? Too bright::
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
XO: The survey records indicate that the Nikkin Valley is unpopulated, and considered a sacred area by the Gelians.
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
::pulls up another chair next to him:: MO: Harriet when it's just you and me I don't mind, but of course we have to keep a sense of chain of command when we are around the rest of the crew
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
MO: Take a seat
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::wonders how the security team is doing identifying their guests::
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::decides it's none of her business and goes back to wondering where all the cute guys are hiding::
MO_Ensign_Munro says:
::Sits down:: David: Thank you. I know. So what was it you wanted help with
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::turns away from her for the moment.  he knew that she would not readily answer any questions.  turning back:: Craven: Thank you.
Host Craven says:
CO: What for?
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::looks around the bridge and thinks they are obviously not hiding here::
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
OPS: Beam down an armed contingent to the Nikkon province, Mr. Kraight will give you the coordinates. Tell them they are to observe only, and report back to me. Coordinate with Mr. Telarus as necessary
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
MO: I want you to take a look at these bio signs that we have archived on the Storm agents we have encountered before and their masking techniques and see if you can help me program the bio sensors to detect these bio signs
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::gets excited at having something to do::  XO:  Yes Sir!
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
XO: Sir... a moment. I'd like to make another suggestion.
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
OPS: Make sure there are NO natives around where they are beaming
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::pauses to hear what the CSO has to say::
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CSO: Mr. Kraight, I'm all ears
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::he turns and begins to leave, stopping for a moment to look at Craven:: Craven: I too have a few secrets.  ::not exactly a lie but something to give her to ponder::
Host Craven says:
ACTION: The science and tactical consoles start beeping rapidly.
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::eyes widen as the beeping breaks out all over the bridge::
MO_Ensign_Munro says:
CTO: I could look for patterns and.. maybe something unique to their bio signs.
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
The mere fact that the area is uninhabited does not mean that it may not be under observation by the Gelians as part of their religious observances....
Host Craven says:
::Tenses a little bit and just stares at the CO:: CO: Right. You probably wouldn't have pulled off the stuff you have if you didn't have your "aces."
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
:: breaks off as his console starts to ping for attention ::
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::looks at the XO slightly panicked::
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
XO: Sir... unidentified vessel approaching. Scanning now...
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
XO:  Ooooh... incoming hail.  Shall I put it on screen?
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CSO: I'd like to think we could find an area where we would not be seen. You should be able to find an uninhabited area. Can you?
MO_Ensign_Munro says:
::Starts babbling about everything they could try::
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
OPS: On screen
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::he turns again to leave:: Craven: Now, you too must be "creative." I shall return in due course.  ::leaves::
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::opens the channel and puts it on screen::
Host Craven says:
::Watches the CO leave, and remains silent::
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
XO: It is a modified Starfleet runabout, configuration matches known Storm modifications.
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
MO: Go ahead and try that let's see what pops up
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
XO: It had been concealed on the far side of the planet.
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
*Sulek: Captain to the bridge OPS: Shields!
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
*Sulek*: We have a Storm vessel approaching
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::enters TL:: Bridge.  *Pangborn* On my way.
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::fiddles with the communication signal::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::arrives bridge:: Pangborn: Report.
Host General_Trebor says:
@ COM: Quirinus: U.S.S. Quirinus, this is General Trebor of the New Federation. You have one of my personnel. I would like to make negotiations for her release.
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
Sulek: Storm vessel on screen hailing us now.....::looks at the screen::
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::eyes widen even further as she watches the screen::
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
XO/CO: Scanning the runabout for life signs and weaponry...
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::wonders who the heck the New Federation is but decides now is not the time for stupid questions so doesn't ask::
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
CO: Sir, I read five life signs aboard the runabout... three human, one Andorian, one Bajoran.
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
MO: Come with me to the Bridge, I need to get to Tactical.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn: Go to red alert.  Shields at maximum.  Cherry: Open channel.
MO_Ensign_Munro says:
::Stands up:: CTO: Ok.
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::looks at Sulek:: Sulek: Negotiate? ::quiet::
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
CO:  Channel is open Sir!
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
OPS: Red alert
Host General_Trebor says:
@ ::Crosses arms, waiting for response::
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
CO: Getting some very confusing readings on the runabout's equipment... some of the technology aboard is of unknown origin.
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
::gets up and walks out the door:: *Bridge*: I am on my way to Tactical
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
XO:  Me?  ::comes to her senses and initiates red alert::
MO_Ensign_Munro says:
::Follows::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
COM: Trebor: General Trebor. It has indeed been awhile. Negotiate? and what is it that you have to negotiate?
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
::gets into TL with MO:: TL: Bridge
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::just looks confused at Cherry, but hears the klaxon and looks away::
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
:: shakes head ::   CO: Sir, there are systems aboard that ship our sensors simply cannot identify.
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
XO:  Sorry Sir.  I've never been in a real battle before.  ::looks a bit sheepish::
Host General_Trebor says:
@ COM: Quirinus: We can discuss that when our negotiators come onboard, Captain. You have nothing to fear from us. Your last few encounters with us were legitimate with no incident, don't you remember? You can scan our bodies til' kingdom come and you will find no weapons of any sort. You can have a hundred guards as far as we care.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Kraight: Understood, and not surprising.
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
::walks onto the Bridge with the MO::
MO_Ensign_Munro says:
::Looks around::
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CSO: Can you tell if it's a particle weapon, replicator, cloaking device or ?
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
CO: Reporting for duty sir. ::takes station at Tactical MO: Help Lt. Kraight with the sensor sweep we were working on.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
COM Trebor: And how many negotiators would that be?
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
OPS: You're doing a fine job, and we're not in battle ::grin::
Host General_Trebor says:
@ COM: CO: Three.
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::smiles::  XO:  Thank you Sir.  ::turns her attention back to her console::
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
XO: I'm afraid not, sir. Whatever they have added to that ship is entirely outside our experience. The tactical analysis banks can't make heads or tails of it.
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CTO: Secure all decks. Make sure our guest in the brig stays there.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
COM Trebor: And you will be one of the three?
MO_Ensign_Munro says:
::Walks over to Kraight:: CSO: Hello!
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
CSO: Understood...keep at it
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
MO: Good afternoon, Doctor.  :: smiles ::
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
XO: Aye sir
Host General_Trebor says:
@ COM: Quirinus: Of course. One must make sure that you do not attempt to violate our rights by illegally apprehending our negotiators.
MO_Ensign_Munro says:
::Looks at the consol:: CSO: So what do we have here?
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
Thinks to self:  They have rights?
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
MO: An oddly modified Starfleet runabout. She is carrying technology that I cannot identify.
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
*Security*: All teams go to condition alpha 1, secure the prisoner in the Brig. Engage lockdown of all decks and secure all key ship areas.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
COM Trebor: You too should know me better than that.  Allow me a moment to confer with my officers.  ::Signals Cherry to cut the sound::
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::cuts the audio::
Host General_Trebor says:
@ ::Stares silently as the sound is cut::
MO_Ensign_Munro says:
::Begins to think:
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn: Opinion.  He is quite right that the last few times have been without incident.
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
Sulek: I'm not sure how I feel about negotiating with thugs ::frowns::
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
CO: Sir I could object to this, but they do make points in the fact that they have a right to negotiate, unless Starfleet wants to classify them as criminals and then we could deny them and proceed to disable and capture them for questioning
MO_Ensign_Munro says:
::Looks at some stuff:: CSO: Do you know what it could possibly be?
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
CO: Sir, this may be a ruse to abduct one or more of the officers of this ship. I suggest that we prepare a conference room with a dampening field to prevent any attempt to beam someone off the ship.
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::looks at the staring man on screen and thinks he's kinda cute, in a menacing sort of way::
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
MO: No. And that worries me.
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
CO: I do have a suggestion though that could appease both us and the "New Federation"...
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
Sulek: But it may very well be necessary
MO_Ensign_Munro says:
CSO: So how can I help? ::Confused about what we are doing::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Telarus: Continue.
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
MO: You may want to prepare to scan our guests from the runabout if and when they arrive, to forestall any hidden surprises they may bring with them.
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
CO: In a recent communiqué with my brother from the Triton, he indicated a modification to the impulse drive that would make it run "silent", I could modify a shuttle to be "invisible", sneak aboard and check them out with a light complement of my best men while we have the delegates aboard
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::smiles winningly at the guy on screen as he's looking a bit impatient::
MO_Ensign_Munro says:
CSO: I will go to sickbay and get my equipment.
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
MO: Excellent idea, Doctor.
MO_Ensign_Munro says:
::Turns and Enters the TL::
Host General_Trebor says:
@ ::Returns his most charming smile at OPS::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn:  The concern here is also not whether Trebor is wanted...we know that Craven is.
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::blushes slightly::
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
:: looks at the CTO, dubious ::   CTO: I would point out that a simple glance out the window will negate that ruse, Lieutenant.
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
Sulek: Can we legitimately hold her is the only  question then.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Telarus: If they come aboard, we will take no provocative action.  Negotiations need to be built on trust.
MO_Ensign_Munro says:
::enters sickbay::
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
CO/XO: I would think so, if only on suspicion of murdering the real Doctor Jensen.
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::looks around to see if Munro is still here to check this guy on screen out, but realizes she left::
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
CSO: That is why on the shuttles deflector array I would disperse ground borite that will jam their sensors, another trick I picked up from my brother
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
Sulek: If we can legitimately hold her, then I say no deal, no negotiators, nothing. We take her to the nearest Starbase and let them deal with it
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::can't follow the conversation going on behind her amongst the senior officers::
MO_Ensign_Munro says:
::Grabs equipment::
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
CO: Sir, I believe that we can not take them at face value and build on trust but on pure knowledge, who is to say that all the equipment that is aboard their ship that we can not even identify is scanning us now through our shields
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
CTO: Riiiiight. I'm still not certain how you plan to evade simple optical detection.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
All: Very well.
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::wonders if the CO is about to made a decision and smiles at Trebor again::
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
CSO: Piloting skills, pure and simple
MO_Ensign_Munro says:
::Runs back to the bridge::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn:  I will not be deemed an equal to the level of Storm.  Kraight: Storm is seldom what they appear.  I am not that naive.  Still they may also have Jenson and that is worth finding out.  Intelligence on Storm activity could be useful.
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
CO: Where do you plan to hold the negotiations, sir?
MO_Ensign_Munro says:
::Enters Bridge::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn: Trebor's ego has often revealed more than he intended.
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
Sulek: And just what did it reveal to you? ::dead serious::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Kraight: The briefing room.  Install your dampening field there once they are beamed directly to it.
Host General_Trebor says:
@ ::Is beginning to look impatient::
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
CO/XO:  He's looking a bit impatient Sirs.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn: Storm operations and needs.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Cherry: He will wait.  He has no choice.
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::smiles at Trebor yet again and rolls her eyes in a commiserating sort of way::
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
CO:  :: nods ::  I'll ask Engineering to prepare the field generators.
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
OPS: He can wait til hell freezes over for all I care. ::scowls::
MO_Ensign_Munro says:
::Walks to the CSO::
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::cringes at the tone of the XO's voice::
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
CO: Sir before we resume the comm.’s we could have him aboard, I have confidence that we can control him better here and that we can control any situation
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::turning back to the screen:: Cherry: Open channel.
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::reopens the audio channel::
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
Sulek: I see. I trust these negotiation prove successful then
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
CO:  Open Sir!
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
MO:  :: nods to Munro ::  It seems we will be having guests, Doctor.
MO_Ensign_Munro says:
::Smiles:: CSO: I can't wait.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
COM Trebor: We will beam you to our briefing room.  Please be advised the Craven is still considered a fugitive from her previous Storm activities and may have to face those charges.  We will contact Starfleet with those particulars before her release.
Host General_Trebor says:
@ COM: Quirinus: Of course, Captain. Ready when you are?
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
CO: Sir I will head to my office and pick up some PADD's for the negotiations on Craven, I need to gather her Starfleet record.
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
::walks to the TL::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
COM: Trebor: Sulek out.  Telarus: Security team to Briefing room.  Cherry: Contact Starfleet and inform them of situation.  Ask to advise.
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
CO:  Right away Sir!
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
CO: Sir, Engineering reports that the dampening field can be activated the moment our guests materialize.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn: Shall we meet our guests.
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
Sulek: Lead the way. I can't wait
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
*Security*: To the Briefing Room, on the double. CO: Sir I will be right back, I will gather the records for the negotiations and straight back to the Briefing room. TL: Security Office
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::opens a secure channel to Starfleet Command and sends them an encrypted report of their situation.  Request advice::
CTO_LtJG_Telarus says:
::arrives next to his office and heads in a second to get the PADD's::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Kraight: when the shields go down, monitor all transports and your unidentified equipment for activity.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::enters TL:: Deck two.
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
CO: Understood.
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::feeling a bit nervous about all this::
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::follows::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Brig: Activate full dispersion on Craven's cell.
CSO_LtJG_Kraight says:
:: sets up detailed scan, ties the program into transporter control ::
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::refrains from biting her nails since they're already a mess::
OPS_Ens_Cherry says:
::twiddles her hair instead::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
