Previously …

It is the time of the ball, and the crew prepare for it. 

Most look forward to it with hope for a calm, entertaining evening; such as Captain Sulek and Admiral Serena Sheridan, whose recently started relationship has been blossoming on the train ride. 

However, heightened emotions amongst the crew (resulting in arguments and fights) have given cause for worry. Is this merely the result of months of world after world and not knowing what’s next … or something more devious? 

The truth will be revealed this very evening.

Dramatis Personae 

Mitch Travis is Captain Sulek – Commanding Officer of the Quirinus, the Vulcan / Deltan Sulek has been a member of the ship since its launch. Rising through the ranks onboard, he has come to find that his destiny is intertwined with that of his vessel’s, passing up offers of promotion time and again. Seemingly always logical and reserved, Sulek does indeed care for all of his crew.

Jeffrey Brown is Lieutenant Commander Kraight – Chief Science Officer and Second Officer of the Quirinus, the Benzite Kraight may appear to less of a threat than expected, but his intelligence, cleverness, and wit have proven himself time and again to the Quirinus crew … and the foes they face.

Jane Rowley is Lieutenant Cherry – Chief Tactical Officer of the Quirinus, the human / Betazoid hybrid has come off as a distracted (mostly by clothing), opinionated, and flirtatious character whom not many may take seriously. That is their mistake. Cherry is a determined Starfleet Officer whose friendship with OPS Morgan is one of the many dedications she has onboard the Quirinus.

Cathy Campos is Lieutenant JG. Jade Morgan – Operations Manager of the Quirinus, the quiet Minaran has come to be a valued member of the Quirinus crew, having proven this with all the responses of the crew when she was feared to be dying. Now, Morgan has been blessed (or cursed?) with an amazing new gift: to see the auras of people, and as well as their pasts, presents, or futures.

Edward Selgas is Lieutenant David Telarus – Chief Engineering Officer of the Quirinus, the human Telarus has revealed himself to be a clever and creative force onboard the ship. Often giving ideas and plans to help the crew through their endeavors, Telarus is a fountain of ideas. Which should hopefully make his relationship with the ship’s CMO, Ms. Munro, an interesting one.

Erryn Pollock is Ensign Lance Wolverton – Tactical Officer of the Quirinus, the human Wolvington has proven himself quite capable in battle. The atypical paranoid security officer, Wolvington still has a lot to learn … and may be on that journey of knowledge soon.

Fiona Sorel is Ensign Harriet Munro – Chief Medical Officer of the Quirinus, the Kriosian / Human is a delicate, soft-spoken woman who has proven herself capable of looking out for the crew. She is currently married to the ship’s CEO, Lt. Jg. Telarus.

Pam Bruyere is Admiral Serena Sheridan – Former Counselor of the Quirinus, Admiral Sheridan is a long time friend of Sulek, and holds a psychic bond with him. There has always been a bit of romantic tension between the two … but nothing has ever come of it. Will this always hold true?

Lieutenant JG. Erin Eisenhower – The Engineering Officer is a girl who may have just started to have the best day of her life, and is now having the worst day of her life. Looking forward to a date with a charming man from Astrometrics, she has now found herself torn away from her normal life to go on some “away mission” with the senior crew. Despite this perhaps being the chance for her to excel, she does not care. She didn’t join Starfleet for adventures on far away worlds; she joined to repair stuff.

Ensign Albert Rio – Security Officer Rio seems to be struggling with his sense of identity: is he a fiancee to the woman he loves, is he a Starfleet officer with aspirations for greatness, or is he simply a man more confused than anyone else? Selected along with three other junior officers, this Adventure the crew are going upon may help him find a sense of identity.

Chief Petty Officer Beldaur – Yet another member of the Security force present on this expedition to regions unknown. The jolly Beldaur seems out of place amongst his peers. While not seemingly excelling in the matters of assault and fighting, he has a sharp mind when it comes to strategy. 

Neet – The adorable Monkey / Cat creature known as Neet was first found in the land of the Ew some months ago. At first he grew to be a constant companion of Counselor Ris’Mor, the crew’s resident Caitian. However, the Counselor has now vanished, and Neet has been drifting amongst the crew, alone and perhaps neglected. 

Host SM_Selan says:
RECAP: Hours have passed as the Crew prepare for tonight's ball.

Host SM_Selan says:
RECAP: Emotions seem to be running high amongst them ... is this merely pent up tensions ... or is there something more going on here?

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
CMO: You know what we need to get ready for the ball let's go.

CMO_Ens_Munro says:
CEO: Wait.

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: Dozens of brilliant multi-colored fire flys (they seem familiar, dont they?) dance in the fields and trees along side the train as it passes through.

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
:: finds his way to the shopping car, and thence to the clothing shop ::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::watches the scenery silently::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::watching the dancing lights and thinks they look familiar from somewhere::

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::starts walking and turns around as she says to wait:: CMO: What?

CMO_Ens_Munro says:
CEO: We... need to talk.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::thinks back to her dream with a frown and wonders what she should do::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::looks up as Serena enters and stands:: Sheridan: Serena, You are...I believe the appropriate response is...ravishing.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::remembers the pool of water where they rested and smiles::

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
CMO: About what sweetheart.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::wonders if the horses got back okay::

CMO_Ens_Munro says:
CEO: I think... we should call it off.

Host SM_Selan says:
<CPO Beldaur> CTO: Hello Lieutenant. ::Is decked out in some bright blue tuxedo which goes well with his blue skin::

VADM_Sheridan says:
::smiles and moves closer:: CO: Then I take it you approve of my attire? ::holds her skirts out to the side and curtsies::

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
CMO: What going to the party, are you feeling ok?

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::smiles up at Beldaur::  CPO:  You look handsome tonight.

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
:: emerges from the shop with a silvery half-cape and an iridescent half-mask... the only things that even slightly appealed to him ::

Host SM_Selan says:
<CPO Beldaur> ::Brightens:: CTO: And you are quite a fine sight as well, where is Commander Pangborn?

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Sheridan: It is very feminine, Counselor.

CMO_Ens_Munro says:
CEO: No... ::Tries to sort out her thoughts and feelings:: This, I think... we should call off our... relationship.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
CPO:  I don't actually know.  Maybe he went for a nap before the big event?

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::his jaw drops:: CMO: Wait a minute, run that by me one more time please.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::decides to get dressed and seek out the captain::

CMO_Ens_Munro says:
::Tries to sort it out again:: CEO: I think, we should call it off... until we get home.

Host SM_Selan says:
<CPO Beldaur> CTO: Anything's possible. ::Takes a seat:: So are you two having a dandy time? ::Has a noticeable healed cut on his head::

VADM_Sheridan says:
CO: I thank you Captain. I must say you look rather fetching as well. ::walks around Sulek and then stops directly in front of him:: This costume suits you well.

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
CMO: What's the point of calling of our marriage until we get home, tell me what's wrong why do you all of a sudden have the urge.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::looks at the cut on Beldaur's head::  CPO:  Not really, no.  I'm kinda bored actually and can't wait to get off this train.  What happened to you?  ::points at his head::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Sheridan: It had better, it is all that I have.  ::REB::

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
:: dons his costume (such as it is) and makes his way back to the sleeper car ::

CMO_Ens_Munro says:
::Sits down and puts her head in her hands:: CEO: I... I just think that... we are in so much danger and... being close to you... if something were to happen... we have a mission to think about. We have to get home.

Host SM_Selan says:
<CPO Beldaur> ::Frowns:: CTO: Ensign Rio and I got into ... an argument.

VADM_Sheridan says:
::laughs:: CO: Well it is hardly regulation, but I approve.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::takes out the shimmering gown and quickly dons it, taking no interest at all in her appearance in the looking glass.::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::chuckles::  CPO:  Rio is an argument looking for a place to happen.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Sheridan: May I escort you to the ball?

Host SM_Selan says:
<CPO Beldaur> CTO: Perhaps ... but, I helped it as well. It was quite disconcerting. I've never felt that ... angry before.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::offers he his arm::

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
:: stops before the door of the cabin he and Morgan have shared, knocks ::

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
CMO: What happened to "for better or for worse" listen Harriet I love you very much and will stand by whatever you want to do, but if that is separating ourselves for this mission I can't stand behind that for the wrong reasons. You have to realize that we are only strong together we are still going to worry about each other even if we are separated from each other.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::looks at Beldaur curiously::  CPO:  You've always struck me as quite even tempered.  I wonder if its this place?  ::looks around suspiciously::

VADM_Sheridan says:
::curtsies again:: CO: I would be honored Captain. ::takes his arm and links it in hers::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::puts the last pin into her hair and turns away from the mirror::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
CSO: It's open!

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::moves to door and opens it for her::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::picks up the mask::

Host SM_Selan says:
<CPO Beldaur> CTO: I'm not sure. Something is "up" so to speak. Everyone seems to be up in arms about something ... emotionally charged. Except for the Captain and the Admiral of course. They seem quite happy. Are they romantically involved now?

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
:: enters, stops, stares :: OPS: Lieutenant, I... Great Maker!

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::voice drops to a conspiratorial whisper::  CPO:  Looks like it, doesn't it.  Same with Wolverton and Eisenhower.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::looks at the CSO:: CSO: That bad, huh?

Host SM_Selan says:
<CPO Beldaur> <W> CTO: Yes, they seemed to be happy until we got onto the train. And then ...

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
OPS: I have learned something, I think, about human standards of physical beauty. May I state without equivocation that you now exceed any other human female I have ever seen in that regard.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::looks intrigued::  CPO:  And then what?

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::moves out into the hall with Serena:: Sheridan: Unless I miss my guess, there will be arrows directing us to the ball.

CMO_Ens_Munro says:
::Looks at Telarus as tears run down her cheeks:: CEO: Why are you doing this?

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::tilts her head slightly:: CSO: Thanks...I think. ::smiles::

VADM_Sheridan says:
::looks around for the said arrows::

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
:: smiles back, then becomes serious :: OPS: Jade, I need you to do something for me. Something important.

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: The arrows show up, guiding them down the corridors. Music can be heard in the distance.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::pauses:: CSO: And what would that be?

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Sheridan: At least there have been guides to all....ahh there they are.  Shall we?

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
OPS: Look at me, carefully. Tell me if you see any change in my aura. Anything that would suggest... an outside influence, especially of an emotional nature.

VADM_Sheridan says:
CO: By all means. I would enjoy hearing some fine music and seeing everyone relaxed for a change.

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
CMO: I am not doing anything what I am trying to do is save our marriage

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::follows the arrows with the Admiral on his arm::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::turns and looks at Kraight concentrating very hard on his aura::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Sheridan: The crew has indeed seemed out of sorts.

CMO_Ens_Munro says:
CEO: No, what you are trying to do is make me do what you want! ::Stands up and begins to yell:: That’s all you ever do!

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::the music grows louder as they approach the dance::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::stares very hard and catches a brief flicker of uncontrolled anger, quickly lost::

VADM_Sheridan says:
CO: They need to let go a little I think. This journey has been most interesting.

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
CMO: No I don't I always share the decision equally I have always let you do that, now that I am trying to save our marriage you want to say that I always make you do what I want that isn't true and you know it Harriet.

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
:: meets Morgan's gaze levelly ::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
CSO: You look...much the same. Although I do see the remnants of anger.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
CSO: Is everything okay?

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Sheridan: I agree.  You do realize that I have little in the way of dancing experience.

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
OPS: I am not certain. I... treated Ens. Munro very badly a few hours ago, when she had come to me for advice on... a matter of some delicacy. I have been pondering since then why I acted as I did. I can find no satisfactory answer.

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
OPS: The anger you mentioned... have you ever seen it in me before tonight?

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::walks over to Harriet to try to comfort her:: CMO: Listen I don't want you to cry ::puts his arms around her::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
CSO: I don't think it's you.....I think it may be something...someone else. I need to talk to the captain.

CMO_Ens_Munro says:
::Loses control of her emotions and begins to wonder why she is acting this way:: CEO: Your doing it again! You always try to make it look that way! I hate you! GET OUT! ::Pushes out of his hold::

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
OPS: I agree. Let us find him at once.

VADM_Sheridan says:
::smiles and squeezes his arm gently:: CO: I have no doubt in your ability my friend. Something tells me you are a very quick study.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::shakes her head with assurance:: CSO: Never.

Host SM_Selan says:
<CPO Beldaur> ::Continuing:: <W> CTO: ... and then they seemed to collapse into fighting. Ms. Eisenhower was quite upset about something. I wasn't too sure.

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
OPS: I feared as much.  :: opens the cabin door, holds out an elbow ::  Shall we?

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
CMO: Now I know there is something wrong this isn't you Harriet not by a long shot.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::arrives at the ball::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::gathers her skirts, puts on her mask and heads out the door with a rustle::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::leans forward:: CPO:  That's weird.  ::thinks about it for a minute::  Oh well.  I guess we should check out this ball since we're all dressed up.  ::stands::

CMO_Ens_Munro says:
::looks at him confused, but all she can hear is the pulsating of her heart in her ear as it drowns out everything::

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
CMO: I want to know what you have done with my wife NOW!

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: The car dedicated for the Ball is massive and seems to be some sort of gigantic space that SHOULD NOT be on the train.

CMO_Ens_Munro says:
CEO: I AM YOUR WIFE!

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::follows the arrows and the sound of the music::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::looks around the car:: Sheridan: Do you notice that the car is larger than it should be?

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: Dozens of couples are dancing or are seated at tables, laughing, eating, and generally having a merry time. Various shaped objects are glowing on a stage, music is emanating from them.

Host SM_Selan says:
<CPO Beldaur> ::Stands up and offers his arm:: CTO: I offer my company until the Commander arrives, Lieutenant.

VADM_Sheridan says:
::looks the car over:: CO: You are quite observant. Logic does not seem to apply here.

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
CMO: No No you aren't because my wife wouldn't have just blown up the way you just did and push me away like that we have known each other too long.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::takes his arm::  CPO:  I'd be to be escorted by a gentleman of your brilliance.  ::grins::

Host SM_Selan says:
<CPO Beldaur> ::Smiles and leads her out of the bar car and to the ball::

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
:: follows close behind Morgan ::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::arrives at the doorway and looks around with wonder::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::follows along::

CMO_Ens_Munro says:
CEO: Really, well then it sounds like you don't know me at all because I may be quite, but I'm not about to put up with this $#!% !

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Sheridan: It is a fascinating conundrum...it would almost have to exist in an alternative dimension.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::sees the captain and her eyes widen with shock::

VADM_Sheridan says:
CO: It bears further investigation, but not this evening. This dance is for us all to relax.

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
:: just behind Morgan :: OPS: Fascinating. The laws of physics, if not broken, are being severely mangled here.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::watches with utter despair as his aura reaches out tentacles towards those around him::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Sheridan: Of course.

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
:: sees the look on Morgan's face :: OPS: What is it, Jade?

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::nods mutely as her eyes never leave the captain::

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
CMO: You know what then it's off don't even talk to me when we get back on the ship ENSIGN :: emphazises rank with and evil glare like he has never given anyone ::

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: The Conquistador is seated at a table with plenty of wine and women around him. A woman slave which looks human and is dressed in the same clothing as the male slave from earlier is at his side.

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
:: looks to the Captain... sees nothing amiss, except perhaps the very un-Sulek-like outfit ::

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: An alien tango is being played at the moment.

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::walks away punching a hole into the wall of the train and walks towards the sleeping car to get his costume::

CMO_Ens_Munro says:
CEO: Fine, neither will I, SIR ::Makes it sound incredibly sarcastic::

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
OPS: I cannot see with your eyes, Jade. Tell me what troubles you.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::gathers her skirts:: CSO: We need to talk to him. Now.

VADM_Sheridan says:
::listens to the music::CO: Hear that? They're playing a tango I think. Care to trip the light fantastic as my father used to say?

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
OPS: All right.  :: follows ::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::heads into the crowd with determination.::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::arrives at the ball and is absolutely amazed at the size of the room::

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
:: keeps up as best he can ::

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: The hole the CEO punched heals up quickly.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Sheridan: Why would one want to trip no matter how fantastically?  If you are asking me to dance, I will give it a try.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::skirts the dancing couples::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::notices Jade with Kraight in tow making her way towards the Captain::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::arrives at the edge of the dance floor as she watches the captain and the admiral take the floor::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::pauses with a frustrated sigh::

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::arrives at his room and grabs all of his belongings and walks out his room again::

VADM_Sheridan says:
::laughs:: CO: I forgot about your Vulcan humour. ::takes his hand and leads him to the dance floor::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::wonders what's going on::

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: As the CEO heads down the corridor, he notes a figure move around a corner ... there is a flash of black and white ...

CMO_Ens_Munro says:
::Sits down and begins to weep harder then ever befor::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
CSO: The captain....his pheremones....or something...his aura.....its...causing all of the tension, the pain. The discord.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::is experiencing some odd emotions for no apparent reason::

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
Self: What was that?

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::decides she needs a drink::

Host SM_Selan says:
<CPO Beldaur> ::Looks around at the great ball going on:: CTO: Wow, this is pretty amazing.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::looks at the other couples on the dance floor and assumes the common dance position::

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::throws his pack back into his room:: Outloud: Hello is anyone there?

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
OPS: That would be... extraordinarily bad, given his prodigious telepathic abilities.

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: The CEO hears a chuckle ... but nothing more.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
CPO:  You have no idea how amazing.  ::wanders off in search of refreshments::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::looks at the CSO for a moment:: CSO: His aura is twisting around those around him...reaching out like a serpent of discord.....

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
Outloud: Is anyone there? ::assumes a defensive stance::

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: The CEO hears a door sliding open, and a beeping - "Warning, train exit opened. Please leave door closed."

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
OPS: You're right. We do need to talk with him now.  :: walks over to where the Captain and Admiral are dancing ::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::follows::

VADM_Sheridan says:
CO: Now ordinarily we would dance cheek to cheek for a tango, but you are too tall for me to reach your cheek. Have a solution? ::smiles up at him::

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
Self: Why me?

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::starts to run to the other end of the train::

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
:: stands a respectful meter or so away, but fixes Sulek with a steady gaze, and clears his throat ::  CO: Ahem...

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Sheridan: I believe you may rest your cheek on my shoulder.

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: The CEO finds a doorway to the outside open ... wind blows in as the nearby fire-fly filled fields pass by at high speeds.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::halts a few feet away, anxious to not allow the tentacles to touch her::

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::tries to begin closing the door::

VADM_Sheridan says:
::smiles and places her cheek on his broad shoulder::CO: Perfect fit.

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: The CEO hears a voice - "Hello David"

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::frowns:: CO: Excuse me, Sir.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::turns to see the CSO::Kraight: Something on your mind, Lt. Commander?  ::returning his gaze to Sheridan::

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::looks for some type of alarm switch and then hears a voice and turns around::

SM_Selan is now known as Nero.

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
CO: Captain... Lt. Morgan and I need a word with you. Immediately, I am afraid.

Host Nero says:
::Nero, the black and white man stands behind him. He is clothed in a suit of half black and half white with a head covering mask split similarly with slits for eyes and a mouth::

Host Nero says:
CEO: You don't know how much of a pleasure it is to finally meet you face to face.

VADM_Sheridan says:
::looks around at Kraight::CSO: Now?

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::sees a wisp reach out toawards her and steps back abruptly::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::lets go an uncharacteristic audible sigh:: Sheridan: Duty Calls.

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
VADM: Yes, ma'am.

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::stands away from the open doorway:: Nero: Hmm can't say the same.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::having procured herself a drink, stands watching the scene on the dance floor::

Host Nero says:
CEO: Do you know who I am?

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::waits for the Captain to lead the way::

VADM_Sheridan says:
::looks pleadingly at Sulek::CO: I understand, but you will return soon won't you?

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Sheridan: As soon as I may.

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
Nero: Well no, but open door way mysterious appearance I am going to guess your not on my side.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::turns and begins to head for a quiet corner of the room::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::looks at Serena sympathetically::

CMO_Ens_Munro says:
::Leaves the room in search of somthing to do other then cry about *him*::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::follows::

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
:: follows Sulek ::

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
Nero: Guilty until proven innocent I say.

Host Nero says:
::It appears as though there is a smile behind his mask:: CEO: Well, I'm on no one's side David. If you wish to follow me, that is up to you. I'm merely need you to deliver a message to your Captain.

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
Nero: Okay...what is it.

VADM_Sheridan says:
::sighs as she watches Sulek cross the room, his body rippling under the costume::

Host Nero says:
<Tall Stick Man> ::Suddenly appears at the Admiral's side:: Sheridan: The Conquistador requests the honor of your presence for a moment.

Host Nero says:
<CPO Beldaur> CTO: Drinking again? ::Looks concerned::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::notices the stick guy approach the Admiral::

Host Nero says:
CEO: Actually I was hoping to deliver it with your broken and battered body ...

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::In a corner:: Morgan/Kraight:  Well?

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::does not step closer::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
CPO:  No worries.  ::raises her glass and chugs it all down::

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
CO: Lt. Morgan has noted some... anomalies regarding your aura, as well as my own.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
CO: I am sorry to interrupt you, Sir. But there...has been a change.

Host Nero says:
<CPO Beldaur> CTO: Perhaps we should dance ... ::Really wants to get her away from the drinks::

TO_Ens_Wolverton says:
::shows up...with Erin, even::

VADM_Sheridan says:
::turns:: TSM: May I ask why?

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
Nero: Well that isn't going to happen. ::assumes a defensive stance:: I want you to try something, it helps when you study plenty of martial arts and that of the Klingon race listen you really got to meet the Klingons they are a hell of race, short tempered too.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Kraight/Morgan: Could you two please be a little less polite and a bit more straight forward?

Host Nero says:
<Lt. Jg. Eisenhower> ::In a scandalous outfit, a smile on her face:: TO: This is so exciting!

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
CO: I had...a dream. And your aura has confirmed it.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
CO: Your...pheromones are out of control.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::feels a bit numb, definitely an improvement::  CPO:  You know what?  ::hiccups::  I need to keep an eye on a few things.  Excuse me.  ::wanders off in the Admiral's general direction::

Host Nero says:
CEO: I'm familiar with them.

Host Nero says:
<CPO Beldaur> ::Shrugs as the CTO wanders off:: Well at least she isn't drinking any more.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
CO: But they are not attracting others, but instead they are....causing great discord.

Host Nero says:
<TSM> Admiral: Merely a moment of your time for conversation. Nothing more, nothing less.

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::extends his hand open palm face up opening and closing requesting basically to 'bring it'::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::realizes she doesn't have a drink.  Quickly returns and grabs one::

Host Nero says:
::Strikes out, sending a fist in the CEO's general direction::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::with a wink to Beldaur wanders off again::

VADM_Sheridan says:
::looks over at the Conquistador's table::TSM: Very well. Lead on.

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
CO: Lt. Morgan has also noted an unfamiliar anger in my own aura, which she believes is imposed from without.

Host Nero says:
ACTION: The doorway at this point closes and locks - "Engaging emergency locks to prevent injury."

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::flips back dodging the fist::

TO_Ens_Wolverton says:
::looks around at the teeming mass of people:: EO: Errr....yeah, exciting.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Morgan: To the point.  Short of quarantine, there is little I can do...discord...most interesting.  Kraight: Suggestions?

Host Nero says:
::Misses the CEO who flips out of the way::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
CO: Your aura...its a living, breathing, tentacle cloud that is reaching out towards everyone in your path.

Host Nero says:
ACTION: The CEO hits the wall with his flip, it's a tight space ... they're not in the main corridor.

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::draws his leg to sweep::

Host Nero says:
::Is swept off his feet::

Host Nero says:
<Lt. Jg. Eisenhower> TO: Can you dance? ::A grin still on her face, not seemingly noticing the TO's uncomfortable ness::

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::strikes Nero's chest from the floor bring down his other leg with force::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
CO: You, Captain Sulek, are responsible for all we are going through...you may also be responsible for our deaths.

Host Nero says:
<TSM> ::Smiles and gestures for the Admiral to follow him to the Conquistador's table, noting the approaching CTO::

CMO_Ens_Munro says:
::Leans against the wall out of breath from crying::

TO_Ens_Wolverton says:
EO: I have no idea.

Host Nero says:
::The sound of a sharp gasp is heard from Nero::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::tries to find an inconspicious place to hang out within earshot of the Conquistador's table::

Host Nero says:
<Lt. Jg. Eisenhower> ::Grins mischieviously:: TO: Well only one way to find out ... ::Drags the TO onto the dance floor as the music continues::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::pauses, in thought::

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
CO: I know that you are no longer under the influence of the chemical suppressants you have used to mask your Deltan side in the past. Is it possible that your physiology may be overcompensating for not having expressed those components for so long?

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::looks at the CO with regret:: CO: You need to speak to Munro immediately, Sir. We need to control this.

Host Nero says:
CEO: You're ... quite ... the ... ::Cough:: ... fighter ...

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::stands back up and puts his knee in Nero's voice box and the other on his chest pressing down with all his weight and more:: Nero: Move and I will snap your neck.

Host Nero says:
::Gurgles something:: Hrhrm arhrhrdy dhrhhd

VADM_Sheridan says:
::stops at the Conquistador's table::Conquistador: You wished to speak to me sir?

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
Nero: You know what shut up too.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::notices Eisenhower dragging Wolverton onto the dance floor.  Thinks he looks a bit uncomfortable and she looks a bit... too.... bright, somehow::

CMO_Ens_Munro says:
::The horrible feelings inside began to well up in her throat causing her to gag and slowly come to the floor in a phetal position::

Host Nero says:
<The Conquistador> ::The quite chubby Conquistador looks up with a smile:: Sheridan: Ah yes, I could not help but notice you and the dear bald man ... Sulek, was his name, no? As you have proven to be quite smart "opponents" ... ::Gestures to the now female slave:: ... I felt I should offer some advice.

Host Nero says:
::Nero shuts up::

TO_Ens_Wolverton says:
::gets dragged, anticipating humiliation::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::hovering inconspiciously nearby listening::

Host Nero says:
<Lt. Jg. Eisenhower> ::Stops and positions the TO:: TO: Okay then, just follow my steps ...

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::feels a rage a violence come over him from his conversation with his now ex-wife:: Nero: You picked the wrong day, my wife, or I should say my ex-wife is back there right now we just broke it off right now and since obviously she is a lady and a fellow officer I am not going to hit her, but you thank you for showing up.

Host Nero says:
ACTION: Suddenly the CEO feels a sharp surge of electricity pour into his back, causing him to go limp for a moment.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Kraight: There is a Vulcan phenomenom which does effect those around them adversely.  It does not occur in Vulcans my age, and is generally not spoken of outside the community.  But if my my emotions were left unchecked, given my empathic and telepathic abilities, they could surface.  Anger is one of the strongest emotions.

TO_Ens_Wolverton says:
::tries to do so, wondering exactly where they're going::

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
Self: Son of...

Host Nero says:
::As the CEO goes limp, Nero hurls him off him with a strong kick::

VADM_Sheridan says:
::looks over at the slave then back::Conquistador: I was not aware that we were opponents here sir. So what advice are you offering?

Host Nero says:
ACTION: CRASH! The CEO hits the far wall.

Host Nero says:
::Stands up:: CEO: You're a fool.

Host Nero says:
CEO: For the record ... snapping my neck? Won't make much of a difference. Been there, done that. Got the T-shirt.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::while eavesdropping on the Admiral and Conquistador watches the dancers::

Host Nero says:
CEO: Stand up.

Host Nero says:
<The Conquistador> Sheridan: I consider anyone that matches my ambition and intelligence an opponent Ms ... I don't believe I ever caught your name.

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
CO: I experienced a most uncharacteristic flash of anger a few hours ago, sir. I believe that Beldaur and Rio were involved in a brawl at about the same time.

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::falls back after kick and stands up brushing it off:: Nero: Hey Thanks my back feels great I had kink it for weeks not even my ex-wife could get out really you should be my chiropracter.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
CO: Regardless of your age, Sir....you have become a living, breathing weapon.

Host Nero says:
CEO: How about I just paralyze you and we call it even?

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::sidles over a little closer to better eavesdrop::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::remembers she has a drink in her hand, so drinks some of it::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Morgan: In the past I was in more control than I am now.  Our only chance is that I regain that control.  Then the only answer is that I must regain control.  The pheremones will then present a different problem.

Host Nero says:
CEO: Ready for round two? ::Mocks him and does the same "bring it on" gesture::

Host Nero says:
<Lt. Jg. Eisenhower> ::Smiles winningly at the TO even though he's stepping on her feet::

VADM_Sheridan says:
::moves around the table and touches the slave's face gently then turns to face the man again::Conquistador: I don't believe I threw it sir, but I am called Serena if that means anything to you.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
CO: If you were unaware of the loss of the control, how can you even attempt to regain it?

Host Nero says:
ACTION: The slave flinches as the Admiral touches her.

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
:: nods :: CO: Is there not a Vulcan mental discipline that can be applied here?

Host Nero says:
<The Conquistador> Sheridan: A beautiful name. My advice? End it now.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::thinks she should have asked the CMO to join them::

Host Nero says:
<Ens. Rio> ::Walking down the corridor, spots the CMO in fetal position:: What in the world?

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
Nero: Nawh, that doesn't work for me. ::pulls something out his pocket:: Gifts from our last friends the Aquati.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::wonders what the Admiral is supposed to end::

Host Nero says:
<Ens. Rio> ::Kneels down beside the CMO:: CMO: Hey ... uh ... are you all right? ::Taps her::

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::throws three devices to the ground:: Nero: Enjoy.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::hopes she asks for clarification::

Host Nero says:
::Looks down at the devices on the ground::

TO_Ens_Wolverton says:
::thinks she's SUCH a faker...but a good sport::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Morgan: It pains me greatly, but I must sever all external mental contact.  Given the present circumstances, my...my...relationship with Sere...The admiral has caused me to become emotional on a surface level.  It will also dramatically impact her.  But only by rebuilding the walls that I once held, can I do this.

CMO_Ens_Munro says:
::Looks up at Rio and forces a sad sad smile onto her face:: Rio: I didn't mean too, I didn't want too, but I'm glad I did. Is that right?

VADM_Sheridan says:
Conquistador: End it? Is that the same advice that you have given others. I believe you have interferred with us before have you not? You are not who you appear to be.

Host Nero says:
<Lt. Jg. Eisenhower> ::Gets closer, and leans her head against his shoulder ... feet stomping or not::

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
CO: I regret being the bearer of these unhappy tidings, sir.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::looks at him sadly while ducking away from a tendril::

Host Nero says:
<The Conquistador> Sheridan: Hmmm? I have no idea what you speak of. I was referring to your relationship with Mr. Sulek.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::wonders what in the heck the Admiral is talking about::

Host Nero says:
ACTION: The devices seemingly FLASH! emitting bursts of energy that strike Nero, seemingly causing him to crumble.

Host Nero says:
::Covers his face:: Oh god! My eyes! My eyes! MY EYES --

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::finds the manual release on the ground for the car door and pulls several times to open the doors override::

Host Nero says:
ACTION: The doors do not budge.

VADM_Sheridan says:
Conquistador: My relationship with Sulek is none of your concern.

Host Nero says:
::Looks up, a grin being seen:: -- My eyes are just dandy, David. But I'll sure be seeing spots for a few months.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
Admiral:  That's telling him!  Self:  Oops  ::covers her hand with her mouth::

Host Nero says:
::Stands up slowly:: Tricked me once. Shame on me. ::Makes fists:: Trick me twice?

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::when that fails he moves to Plan B:: Nero: Hey catch this and catch a few more spots and stars ::kicks him in the face::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
CO: So, you will return to your cabin?

VADM_Sheridan says:
::overheard Cherry but doesn't turn around::

Host Nero says:
::Catches the CEO's foot:: Shame on you.

Host Nero says:
ACTION: SNAP!

Host Nero says:
::Twists the CEO's leg, snapping his ankle and shin::

TO_Ens_Wolverton says:
::finally relents and actually starts to enjoy himself, clumsiness not withstanding::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Morgan: I must first tell Serena.  I am the one who should do that.  I owe her this much and more.

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::shouts in pain and spins and gives Nero the back side of the other::

Host Nero says:
ACTION: The kick hits Nero, but is weakened by his pain.

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
CO: We'll wait here, sir.

Host Nero says:
::Growls and swings the CEO in the air from his injured leg, sending him crashing into a wall::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::shakes her head:: CO: You are in charge, of course, Sir. But you do know that increased contact with her can be detrimental?

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::turns to go to Sheridan and sees her at the table:: Morgan: I cannot simply sever the link we have.  It is a bond.  Unprepared could also do much damage.

Host Nero says:
<The Conquistador> ::Raises hands:: Admiral: Maybe so, dear Ms. Serena.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
CO: Just....don't get too close to her, please. And Sir?

Host Nero says:
<The Conquistador> Admiral: I only show concern. He may love you now. But a love such as this cannot last long. He is a leader. A leader is dedicated to those he leads ... he cannot be dedicated to one woman.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::stares at the Conquistador wondering just who exactly he is, and where he finds humans to enslave::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::without looking at them he walks away, he seems less sure of himself than he ever has::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
CO: Don't go near that table.....it could turn ugly very quickly.

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::plays dead and has a blade ready to gut Nero like a fish, coughs and everything::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::looks at the CSO helplessly and motions for him to follow the CO::

Host Nero says:
::Kicks the CEO in the stomach hard as he's down::

Host Nero says:
ACTION: CRACK! A rib goes.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::notices the Captain heading their way::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::He crosses slowly to the table but stands a bit distant, the pain clearly registering on his face:: Serena: If I may...um speak to you.

VADM_Sheridan says:
::looks puzzled:: Conquistador: You claim to know Sulek's heart now? Why is this of any interest to you? What Sulek and I have and have had cannot be broken by your words or any others.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::skirts around the dance floor and walks over to Cherry::

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::gives it all he's got and stabs the blade right into his chest and goes up from his chest to his neck::

Host Nero says:
ACTION: As the CO crosses the room, couples start to be arguing for random reasons across the dance floor.

TO_Ens_Wolverton says:
::starts stepping on her feet a little less::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::sees Jade heading over as well.  Moves to meet her::

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
Self: This is bull I am outta of here ::limps and breathes hard in pain with a cracked rib::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::notices bickering breaking out all over the place::

Host Nero says:
ACTION: Nero's blood splatters everywhere from the stab.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::quickly fills Cherry in as she notices the spreading discord::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::noting the arguing:: Sheridan: Serena, there is little time.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::eyes widen as she listens to Jade::  OPS:  No way!

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
CTO: Its getting worse! He needs to get out of here.

Host Nero says:
<The Conquistador> ::Sees Sulek approaching::

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::pulls out what looks like a grenade:: Nero: If I am going your going too.

VADM_Sheridan says:
::turns as the Captain approaches her::CO: Oh Sulek, this man..::turns and points at the Conquistador:: he's saying terrible things.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::motions to the arguing couples::

Host Nero says:
ACTION: The CEO seems to be limping away when suddenly Nero grabs his arm and the grenade, tossing it away.

Host Nero says:
::Is covered in his blood, but doesn't seem to be affected:: CEO: Earlier? When you were choking me ... I was trying to tell you ... ::Punches him hard in the face:: I'm already dead.

VADM_Sheridan says:
CO: What is wrong? You seem troubled. ::takes his hand in hers::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::nods and turns her attention to the Conquistador's table::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::whispers::  OPS:  He's not going to... freak out or anything is he?  ::motions to the CO::

Host Nero says:
ACTION: A fight between a man and woman-creature-type-thing spills out into a fight between another. Suddenly a punch is thrown.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
CTO: I don't know. Cherry. I'm more worried about what the others will do.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Sheridan: What he has to say is of no consequence.  We must leave.  We must leave now.  ::he drops her hand and takes a step back:: You should not touch me.

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
Nero: Ha Ha Ha ::starts laughing evil like:: too late it's armed. I don't care if your dead but that grenade might help me out because it looks like your prone to physical attacks

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::sees the fight breaking out::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::he turns and moves quckly to the exit::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::checks Wolverton's position in case they need some muscle::

Host Nero says:
CEO: What grenade? ::Gestures to where it's gone:: This is an advanced piece of technology you're riding on. You think it would let an armed weapon remain? ::Punches him hard in the throat::

Host Nero says:
ACTION: The CEO now has trouble breathing.

VADM_Sheridan says:
::looks shocked::CO: What? Sulek, wait! ::hurries after him::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::walks over to the Admiral:: ADM: Ma'm....Serena...please let him go. I can explain.

Host Nero says:
<Lt. Jg. Eisenhower> TO: Uhm ... fight. ::Sees two fighting males about to crash into them, pushes herself and the TO out of the way::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::places a restraining hand upon her arm::

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::thinks to how the train has given them everything they have needed:: Nero: Let me ask you something.

VADM_Sheridan says:
::pushes Jade back:: OPS: Not now. I must go after the Captain.

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
:: follows the Captain at a respectful distance ::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::thinks maybe she needs another drink::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::doesn't let go:: ADM: No! You can't. I'm sorry.

TO_Ens_Wolverton says:
::moves with Erin, putting himself between her and any trouble he spots::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::looks at Cherry:: CTO: Please...she can't. Not yet.

Host Nero says:
::His injuries have healed, and the blood had gone away:: CEO: Don't waste your breath. ::Another punch, another sickening crunch::

TO_Ens_Wolverton says:
EO/SELF: What the...?

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
Nero: If this an advanced piece of technology is it advanced enough to accommodate the needs of it's passengers to the point where it can even read their minds?

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
OPS:  You want me to restrain her? ::looks incredulous::

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::spits blood::

VADM_Sheridan says:
OPS: Jade, let go! ::pushes her away again:: You don't understand. Something is very wrong here. I have to be with him.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::tears well up into his eyes.  once more he will talk to her using the link.  I will the last time of using the bond:: ~~Serena~~I must ...::he struggles within:: end our connection.

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::starts to concentrate on a fire alarm::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
ADM: Look around you! Look at the fighting! HE is doing it. This is all because of him.

VADM_Sheridan says:
CTO: Cherry, stay out of this! I still outrank you even here!

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
ADM: His....Deltan side is out of control.

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::knees Nero in the croch area several times with the good leg and even the bad one::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
ADM: You can demote me when we get back to the ship, but you are not following him.

VADM_Sheridan says:
::looks at Jade very puzzled::OPS: You're crazy! Sulek is not the cause of this!

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::runs off toward Wolverton and Eisenhower::  Eisenhower:  Sorry to interrupt.

Host Nero says:
::Takes the pain, punches the CEO one more time hard in the chest, cracking another rib::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::begins to explain what she has discovered::

Host Nero says:
ACTION: The injuries are too severe, the CEO can barely move now.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
TO:  I need some help.

Host Nero says:
ACTION: Aliens are fighting all over the place in the ball room.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::he is running down the corridors towards his cabin:: ~~Serena~~If I do not regain control, I will destroy the crew.  I know it will be painful.  ::He arrives at the cabin:: Forgive me.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
ADM: Even he knows its true, Serena. I'm sorry. But it is real, its happening.

Host Nero says:
::Kneels down and whispers something into the CEO's ear:: CEO: Be sure he gets the message.

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::passes out::

VADM_Sheridan says:
::fights the hold on her shoulder::OPS/CTO: No! Let me go!

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
TO:  Now!

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::doesn't let go and she continues to explain::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::he enters the cabin and presses the lock:.   He sits on the floor and closes his eyes::

TO_Ens_Wolverton says:
::nods, wondering exactly what she's wanting him to do::

Host Nero says:
::Walks away, leaving the bloodied mess that is David Telarus behind::

Nero is now known as SM_Selan.

VADM_Sheridan says:
::hears Sulek's voice in her head::~~~CO: Please, don't leave me again Sulek. I can't bear it, not now.~~~

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
TO:  We need to get the Admiral out of here before she gets hurt, and as far away from the Captain's quarters as possible.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::thinks that her new abilities really, really stink::

Host SM_Selan says:
<Ens. Rio> ::Has been sitting with the CMO, listening to her talk on and on ... but unsure of what to say. He's not put up for this stuff::

TO_Ens_Wolverton says:
CTO: Understood. What's going on? EO: Maybe you should head back to the cabin...carefully.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::For the last time he feels the bond, he feels her with him and then slowly he begins the torturous prossess of severing:: ~~Serena~~Know this, I will always love you.  Forgive...now forget...it is time...what we once had will only be a pleasant dream to you...nothing more.~~

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
TO:  Apparently the Captain is causing all this. ::gestures towards the fights breaking out all over the place::  I don't understand how, but he needs seclusion to regain control

CMO_Ens_Munro says:
::Finnaly just gets so confused she just needs a hug and reaches out and wraps around Rio::

VADM_Sheridan says:
::tears start to stream down her face::~~~CO: Sulek, please, talk to me.~~~

TO_Ens_Wolverton says:
::frowns as he follows::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:

Host SM_Selan says:
<Ens. Rio> ::Is hugged tightly:: Um ... okay?

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::looks at the Admiral crying and her heart breaks for her::  Admiral:  It isn't safe in here.  I suggest we all move elsewhere.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
OPS:  Ummm...  ::points toward Wolverton::  We could take her.

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: Train crew attempt to break up the ball room fight ... but nothing seems to be working, chaos reigns.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
Eisenhower:  Get back to your sleeping area.  It isn't safe here.

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:

TO_Ens_Wolverton says:
::wonders if he should hit one of his half dozen favorite nerve clusters to just render her unconscious::

Host SM_Selan says:
<Lt. Jg. Eisenhower> ::Frowns, and exits with Beldaur guiding her::

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: The glowing shapes that were the band screech and float away in fear.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::bends down::  Admiral:  Please.  We must get you someplace safe.  ::gestures for Wolverton to pick her up and take her out of here::

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::finds himself in his bed on Earth next to a woman, doesn't look like Harriet. It is his High School Sweetheart Emily::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::he releases her, leaving only the memory of a smiling Vulcan::

All: All of you, leave me alone! ::pushes Cherry away::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
TO: Any cabin.

CMO_Ens_Munro says:
::Looks up at Kraight:: Kraight: I... Try to get his leg in a relaxed position and don't move him. ::She says this very monotone::

Host SM_Selan says:
<Neet> ::Still sitting in the Admiral's quarters, staring at the glowing pendant ... which is glowing fiercer and fiercer. He squeaks, and heres a lot of commotion outside. Scurries over::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
TO: Just not the captains.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
TO:  Except the Captain's

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
CMO: Of course.  :: gently begins to straighten Telarus' leg ::

TO_Ens_Wolverton says:
::throws her over his shoulder and walks off, leaving OPS and the CTO to bicker over semantics::

VADM_Sheridan says:
::looks up:: TO: Lay one finger on me and you'll spend the next ten years in a penal colony on Rutha Pente!

Host SM_Selan says:
<CPO Beldaur & Lt. Jg. Eisenhower> ::Come into the car where the CEO is lying and the CMO is working:: Dear god.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
TO:  You are acting on my orders.  If anyone is going to a penal colony it is me.  Do it.

Host SM_Selan says:
<Lt. Jg. Eisenhower> CSO: What happened?! ::Rushes over::

TO_Ens_Wolverton says:
::answers her as he's walking off with her over his shoulder:: VADM: Sorry ma'am....that's a Klingon colony, and you don't have jurisdiction for sentencing there. ::whistling::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
OPS:  Dear god... what next?

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::ducks a flying chair::

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: The TO exits with the Admiral, leaving the two good friends Cherry & Morgan to look over the chaos the ball has degraded into.

VADM_Sheridan says:
::points at Cherry::CTO: You will pay for this this and that's a promise!

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::the emotions subside as he closes them behind a door, perhaps for the last time will he ever feel as he had felt...but now...his mind silences....it becomes ordered...organized...

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
EO: I do not know. I found him like this. Find someone in charge on this train and get us some more medical help.

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
Emily: Hey sweetie, good morning sleepy head ::notices it is already 1300 hours, they slept in::

VADM_Sheridan says:
::bites the TO's shoulder::

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: The Captain feels a nudge at his feet.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::looks around in dismay:: ADM: Please.....act with dignity, Ma'm.

VADM_Sheridan says:
::bites harder and doesn't let up::

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: White glowing orbs suddenly appear by the CSO's side - "We are Emergency Medical Services. We have just now registered the injury." The orbs lower to the CMO's side and seemingly begin to scan the CEO.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::shakes her head in disgust::

Host SM_Selan says:
<Neet> ::Beside the CO in the cabin, with the glowing amulet at his paws:: Squeak.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
OPS:  This is crazy.  I need another drink.  ::stumbles off toward the remains of the punch table::

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
<Emily>: CEO: David, Five more minutes, please. ::giggles::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
CTO: I'm with you.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::cautiously, he opens his eyes...he is as he was::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::Wonders why no one istrying to break up the fights::

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: Emergency Medical Orbs - "We must move this person to the Medical Car. Do you wish to accompany?"

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::manages to find a full glass::  OPS:  The Captain is responsible for all this?

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: The train crew has been trying to break up the fights ... to no avail.

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
Orbs: Yes. How can we help?

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::he looks over at Neet:: Neet what's this?

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: EMO - "No need." The orbs emit a faint hue, and the CEO's limp body gently floats off the ground.

TO_Ens_Wolverton says:
::starts looking for a securely lockable cabin::

Host SM_Selan says:
<Neet> CO: Squeak squeak.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::snags a crewman by the arm:: CREW: Perhaps you could turn on the fire sprinklers....if you have any?

VADM_Sheridan says:
::pounds on the TO's back::TO: Let me down now!

Host SM_Selan says:
<Train Crew> OPS: Uhm ... uh ... sure! ::Panicked, rushes over to a panel::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::looks up::

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
:: stands, follows the orbs and Telarus ::

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: A fire alarm blares in the ball room, and water appears out of thin air, drenching everyone ... including the CTO and her new dress.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::gets drenched::

Host SM_Selan says:
<Lt. Jg. Eisenhower> CPO: I'm going to go with them ... he's ... my boss, you know? ::Looks at the CMO:: CMO: Are you coming?

TO_Ens_Wolverton says:
::sounds a bit stuttery from the pounding:: VADM: Sorry ma'am, I can't do that until I find a cabin to lock you in.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::but franky, my dear, doesn't give a damn::

VADM_Sheridan says:
TO: I demand you put me down this instant. I am an Admiral after all!

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::chugs back her drink:: OPS:  I suppose we should find out if everyone is safe....

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::he takes the crystal and looks at the glowing:: Self: It was this that magnified the voices...it could also magnify other telepaths...of course...

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
<Emily>: CEO: David, Go get the kids they are already playing in the back yard by now, we need to get ready or otherwise we are going to be late for your brother's promotion ceremony. Since your the one doing it I think it would be really messed up if you were late.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::the realization of what he has done strikes home::

CMO_Ens_Munro says:
Eisenhower: Yes.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::water streaming down her face she grins:: CTO: Let's go.

TO_Ens_Wolverton says:
::checks another cabin:: VADM: Sorry ma'am, I'm just an ignorant TO. Only enough brains to follow the department chief's orders and all that.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::staggers off, dripping wet, in the direction of an exit::

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
Emily: Okay. ::starts to have memories that are not his own but seems that of an altered time line::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
OPS:  Do you think the Admiral is really going to get me for that?

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::squishes along after Cherry::

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
Orbs: Does the train have a security force? I need to speak with someone in authority.

VADM_Sheridan says:
::kicks at his legs:: TO: You realize that your career is over don't you?

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
CTO: No. If she wants to blame someone, she can blame me though.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::he places the crystal on the floor with a kerchief wrapping it and then using the heel of his foot he crushes it::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::giggles::  OPS:  We all sorta acted above our stations, didn't we?

Host SM_Selan says:
<EMO> CSO: The train does not need security forces. There can be no harm onboard. ::A recording, obviously::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::pauses to think:: CTO: I don't think Sulek will let her do anything though.

VADM_Sheridan says:
TO: That goes for Cherry and Morgan too! You'll all pay for this insubordination!

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::walks by and sees an Admiral's uniform and looks into the mirror that he isn't the same person but slight older looks over to a chronometer and notices the Stardate is off by its measure he is 38 years old::

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: There is a flash of light, the amulet is destroyed.

TO_Ens_Wolverton says:
::notes her vain attempt to kick his legs from a very awkward position, and shrugs:: VADM: There's always openings for experienced security personnel, ma'am.

Host SM_Selan says:
<Neet> ::Squeeks and jumps::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::laughs:: CTO: We did what was right.

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
Orb: An obvious fallacy, given the condition of our companion.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::he collects the cloth and moves to the nearest window....he forces it open and tosses the shards out::No More!

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: The sprinklers break up the fighting ... people shout and scream and run out...

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
OPS:  It must be horrible for her... but still, she was acting so oddly.

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: Things seem to be calming down.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::stops dead::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::nods:: CTO: Sulek was enhancing her reaction.

TO_Ens_Wolverton says:
::finally finds a suitable cabin, dumps her unceremoniously on something soft, dashes out while she flails for a moment, then shuts and locks the door from the outside::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
OPS:  Something is happening.  ::looks around::

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: The orbs do not respond to the CSO as they arrive at the Medical Car.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Neet: Thank you.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::looks around as well::

VADM_Sheridan says:
::pounds on the door::TO: Let me out of here, please. ::falls to the floor sobbing::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
CTO: Its...ending, I think.

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: The car is completely white, and perfectly clean looking. The CEO drips drops of crimson, causing imperfection in the perfection of this place.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
OPS:  I wonder why.

TO_Ens_Wolverton says:
::actually feels a little sorry for her:: VADM: I'd like to, ma'am...but I have my orders.

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: A floating square approaches - "My my my, this is uncharacteristic for a trip on this train. What happened to this poor fellow?"

Host SM_Selan says:
<Neet> ::Shrugs and squeaks at the CO as if saying - "Sure, why not? You're welcome"::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
CTO: Perhaps we should check on the Captain.

TO_Ens_Wolverton says:
::standing guard at the door::

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
Square: He was quite obviously attacked.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
OPS:  You go ahead.  I'm going to find some dry clothes, then check to see if Lance survived.  ::grins::

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: A voice goes over the intercom system, it's the same voice that usually does announcements - "Please hear this. There has been an incident in the ballroom. Everyone please return to your rooms for your own safety while we investigate what has happened."

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::he stands and unlocks the door, now he must finish what he began, he must help Sheridan::

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::two kids run up to Telarus one a boy about 12 and other a girl about 13:: Kids: Hey guys ::gives them a hug and there names come like as if he had known them all of their lives:: Jack/Sarah: Go get ready we have to go get ready for Uncle John's ceremony.

Host SM_Selan says:
<Square Doctor> CSO: Was this from the ball room? ::The hovering glowing square changes colors as it floats around the brutal mess of flesh, bone and blood that "used" to be the CEO::

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
<Jack/Sarah>: CEO: Okay Dad.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::nods and yanking up her sodden skirts begins to trudge across the hall::

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
Square: No. He was found in the sleeper car.

Host SM_Selan says:
<Square Doctor> CSO: I see. Well then ... let's get started ...

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::blows a wet tendril of hair out of her face with a sigh::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::is glad she is wearing a mini dress as she staggers off toward her sleeping cabin::

VADM_Sheridan says:
::continues to cry, her green dress now stained with her tears::

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: The clothing is suddenly ripped off of the CEO by invisible hands. The blood vanishes, and the cuts and gashes in his skin slowly begin to be woven. There is gently snaps and pops heard as the bones are realigned and damage repaired.

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
Square: I need to speak to your security chief immediately.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::feeling much calmer, but a bit intoxicated, as she tries to walk straight::

Host SM_Selan says:
<Square Doctor> CSO: We do not have a security chief. We do have a Conductor if you wish to speak to him.

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
Square: I do. Please summon him.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::he walks down the corridor, looking for anyone who can tell him what has happened to Sheridan::

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: The CTO's whole world is going the woozy way of wacky drunkenness!

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: A chime is heard throughout the Medical car.

Host SM_Selan says:
<Square Doctor> CSO: Done.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::puts a hand on the wall to steady herself::

Host SM_Selan says:
<CPO Beldaur> ::Sees the Captain approaching, is walking with Rio:: CO: Captain!

VADM_Sheridan says:
::finally collapses to the floor and her crying stops mysteriously::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::finally finds her room... at least she hopes its her room::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::sees the captain up ahead a stops abruptly::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Beldaur: Have you seen the Admiral?

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::looks at his aura::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::looks at Morgan:: Morgan: It is done.  I am who I was and will always be.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::sighs with relief but is still cautious::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::falls through the door::

Host SM_Selan says:
<CPO Beldaur> CO: I believe Ens. Wolverton dragged her into one of those quarters down there for her own safety. He should be standing guard.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::looks at the Captain sadly:: CO: I am....both relieved and yet sorry, Sir. I can see that your control is beginning to work.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Morgan: There is still the other problem.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Beldaur: Thank you.

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
Calls out:  Ben!  You'll never believe what's been happening!

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
CO: I am afraid the Admiral plans on busting us down, but she is safe and okay.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::moves off in the direction indicated::

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::feels a pull on him like if he is being dragged back to another place tried to resist as much as he can::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::looks at him:: CO: The other problem?

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::falls onto the bed and passes out cold::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Morgan: ::as he passes:: ...ehem...my pheromones.  You don't suppose there is a medical facility that could make up something to the doctor's specifications?

TO_Ens_Wolverton says:
::breathes a sigh of relief at the sudden relative silence::

Host SM_Selan says:
<Square Doctor> ALL: There we go. That should take care of his serious injuries. He'll have to use a cane for a while or so ... but eventually he should be able to stand on his own power. There will be pain, but we have drugs for that.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
CO: I'll find out, Sir.

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::gets really annoyed at the dress and rips it off, glad that she is wearing seven petticoats underneath:

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
Square: We are most grateful for your assistance.

VADM_Sheridan says:
::manages to make it to the window in the cabin and opens it:: Self: Was it all worth it?

Host SM_Selan says:
<Conductor> ::Storms into the Medical Car:: Square Doctor: Doctor, I do not have time for this! We had a riot in the ball ... IN THE BALL ... can you believe this? Nothing like this has EVER happened. What is going on?

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::throws the dress into the recycler as she looks around for a crewman::

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
Cond: You are the Conductor?

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::approaches the cabin:: Wolverton: That will be all.  Unlock the door.  You are dismissed.

Host SM_Selan says:
<Conductor> CSO: Yes. Who are you?

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
::is pulled finally with great force back into his body and wakes up in the medical room:: Self: You son of... ::looks around::

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: The CEO, while now awake, is still in a good amount of pain. Which is slowly starting to subside thanks to drugs being "beamed" into him. He can barely move.

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
Cond: I am Second Officer Kraight of the Federation Starship Quirinus, currently on detached duty. My Chief Engineer :: points to Telarus :: was savagely attacked aboard your train.

VADM_Sheridan says:
::leans out the window and feels the wind rushing through her hair::Self: I can't bear this a moment longer:: steps up and sits on the open window ledge::

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
ALL: Is anyone there?

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
:: turns :: CEO: You are in the train's medical facility, Lieutenant. Please lie still. Do not try to speak.

VADM_Sheridan says:
::leans out:: ~~~CO: I'm sorry Sulek. I love you.~~~

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
CSO: Sir get the Captain now, I have something important to tell him.

TO_Ens_Wolverton says:
::wonders how the window miraculously open, since as a competent security officer he had checked it::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::as the TO opens the door, Sulek enters to find Sheridan on the window edge....he rushes to her and grabs her::

OPS_Ltjg_Morgan says:
::is squishing her way to the medical room::

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
CEO: It will have to wait, David. The Captain cannot be disturbed just now.

TO_Ens_Wolverton says:
:was about to spectularly rescue the admiral, but lets the captain do it instead::

TO_Ens_Wolverton says:
::waits for a moment to make sure he's truly dismissed::

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
Cond: Do you make visual recordings of what transpires aboard this train?

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: As the CO rushes for the Admiral, she vanishes from his grasp ...

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
CSO: Sir This is important, now I just got heaven and hell beat out of me the least you can do is for some reason on this perfect place I got beat up by whom I don't know, so I am going to say it as respectfully as I can I need the Captain here now.

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: ... disappearing out the window.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Sheridan: No.  ::he watches her disappear::

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::he feels her gone...his face registers nothing::

CSO_LtCmdr_Kraight says:
EO: Lieutenant... please try and locate the Captain and bring him here.

TO_Ens_Wolverton says:
::looks quite surprised::

CTO_Lt_Cherry says:
::snores::

CEO_Lt_Telarus says:
CSO: Sir, If you won't bring the Captain here, then pass this message along "Remember the Titanic"

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: There is complete silence in the room ... just the sound of rushing wind from the open window.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::he closes the window.  as if she were still there:: Sheridan: I shall miss you, old friend.

Host SM_Selan says:
ACTION: The window closes, the wind ends. And then Sulek's last words remain just that ... last words.
