XO_VanSickle says:
::on bridge::

FCO_Vince says:
::at helm::

OPS_Russel says:
::On the bridge, at his station::

CSO_Shiar says:
::downloads info from sensors::

CMO_Xye says:
::in sickbay tying up loose ends::

CEO_AQilla says:
::in ME::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Ens. Daniels> ::Takes over at Tac. while the CTO and TO are not present::

Tisk says:
Jisk:  Well, this is a lot better than what we had on our ship ::looks around the room::

Host CO_TPaula says:
CSO: Have you determined the border of this dead zone?

Jisk says:
::plops down on the big cushy chair:: Tisk: I would have to agree.. just this once

Tisk says:
Jisk:  I wonder how we can contact the Captain, she doesn't know this area.  Think we should call her?

Tisk says:
::plops down on the couch next to her;:

FCO_Vince says:
::Continuing to pilot the ship out of the dead zone::

Jisk says:
::nods and leans back:: Tisk: wonder what these aliens eat?

CMO_Xye says:
::eyes Lieutenant Carter:: Carter: I'm sorry to tell you this... but you have Forrester-Trent syndrome.

CSO_Shiar says:
CO: there may be a clearing in the disruption 89km to port.

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Lt. Carter> CMO:O-o-oh no..! Not that... anything  but that!!! Nooooooooo... -- uh, what is it?

Tisk says:
::shrugs her shoulders:: Jisk:  Let's see what the replicator has on it.

Host CO_TPaula says:
CSO: And other than that it extends as far as the sensor can see?

XO_VanSickle says:
CO: You need me to check up on our "guests"?

CSO_Shiar says:
CO: The wreckage is 48kms from starboard.

Jisk says:
::stands up and looks around the room.. picking up this and that:: Tisk: that takes all the fun out of it

Host CO_TPaula says:
XO: Yes, see if they know anything about the Q’Orphod.

CMO_Xye says:
Carter: Starfleet Medical doesn't yet know what it really is or how to treat it. It is a Hereditary degenerative neurological disorder.

XO_VanSickle says:
CO: Aye.

XO_VanSickle says:
::exits to the TL::

Tisk says:
Jisk:  Well I am hungry, might as well make ourselves comfortable ::grinning::

Jisk says:
::walks to the windows and looks out at the stars::

XO_VanSickle says:
Computer: Guests quarters.

Tisk says:
::walks over to the replicator::

Host CO_TPaula says:
CSO: Any new readings on it?

Jisk says:
Tisk: get me what ever you end up with..

CSO_Shiar says:
CO: as far as i can tell

Tisk says:
Jisk:  All right ::begins looking at the menus the computer has shown her;:

Host CO_TPaula says:
FCO: Take us to that clearing.  CSO: Transfer the coordinates.

CMO_Xye says:
Carter: There is... nothing much I can do. I will try my best to assist you. I am going to try to fight the degenerative problem... but I can't do much.

FCO_Vince says:
CO:  Plotting a course for the clearing

XO_VanSickle says:
::TL stops on the deck where Tisk and Jisk are staying::

Jisk says:
::turns to the door:: Tisk: I got it! 

XO_VanSickle says:
::heads to the guest quarters and presses the doorbell::

Tisk says:
Jisk:  Got what?

FCO_Vince says:
::moves the ship to port toward the clearing in the zone::

CSO_Shiar says:
CO: nothing sir. we're too far from the wreckage

Jisk says:
::runs for the door and opens it:: XO: well hello there!

Tisk says:
::jumps at the door chime::

Host CO_TPaula says:
CSO: Continuous scans.

XO_VanSickle says:
Jisk: Are you psychic?

CSO_Shiar says:
ALL: entering clearing in 40 secs

XO_VanSickle says:
Jisk: I barely pressed on the chime.

Jisk says:
XO: good ears.. and who are you? ::looks the XO up and down::

Tisk says:
::tells the computer what they want to eat::

XO_VanSickle says:
Jisk/Tisk: Cmdr. Eric VanSickle, executive officer.

Host CO_TPaula says:
OPS: Have you determined if this dead zone is harmful or not?

CMO_Xye says:
Carter: A neural stimulator helped someone once before. It is a long shot. Let me put it on you.

Tisk says:
::nods to the XO::

XO_VanSickle says:
Jisk/Tisk: And you ladies are?

Tisk says:
XO: I am Tisk, and she is Jisk.

XO_VanSickle says:
::enters quarters::

CMO_Xye says:
::walks to Lt. Carter and puts neural stimulator on head::

CSO_Shiar says:
ALL: entering clearing... now

Jisk says:
::leans on the door post:: XO: I'm Jisk.. and that’s Tisk.. now lets talk about you .. ::grins::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Lt. Carter> CMO: K.

Tisk says:
::grins at her sister eyeing the XO up and down::

XO_VanSickle says:
Ladies: Actually, I came here to talk about you.

FCO_Vince says:
CO:  We have cleared the zone and can activate the warp field

CEO_AQilla says:
*CO*:  Captain, we are now able to generate a warp bubble.  Warp Drive should now be operational.

Tisk says:
::takes the food out of the replicator:: XO: Do you mind if we eat while we talk, we haven't eaten is some time.

Jisk says:
XO: I'm sure your a lot more.. interesting .. ::follows back inside and lets the door close::

Host CO_TPaula says:
FCO: Though I doubt we'd get far unless this is a very large clearing.

XO_VanSickle says:
Ladies: We were wondering if you made encounters with a race called the Q'Orphod.

Tisk says:
::looks at the XO and the odd name he used::

Host CO_TPaula says:
*CEO*: Acknowledged.

OPS_Russel says:
CO:  It disrupts warp capability and causes sensor accuracy to drop to 34%, but that's about it.

Tisk says:
XO: Who are they?

FCO_Vince says:
CO:  Shall I continue at impulse?

Tisk says:
::moves to the table with their food::

XO_VanSickle says:
Ladies: They are a reptilian race who have come from this region of space.  I think the wreckage less than 100 km away is one of their vessels.

Jisk says:
XO: no .. but I'm sure we could talk about it.. say.. you and me?

CMO_Xye says:
Carter: I'm going to study this much further. Don't worry. i will try my very best to assist you. You will be cured.

Host CO_TPaula says:
FCO: Yes, toward the wreckage.

Tisk says:
Jisk:  Come eat, the food is ready...XO, would you like something?

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Lt. Carter> CMO: K.

XO_VanSickle says:
::looks at the spread on the table::

XO_VanSickle says:
Ladies: Uh, no thanks.

FCO_Vince says:
CO:  Aye Captain ::plots a course toward the wreckage and engages impulse engines::

Jisk says:
::shrugs:: Tisk: sure.. ::grabs a chair next to her sister and begins to eat.. and watches the XO with a grin::

XO_VanSickle says:
Jisk: Before you get any ideas, I'm taken.

Jisk says:
XO: that’s ok.. I'm sure she'll never know

Tisk says:
::giggles at her sister::

CSO_Shiar says:
CO: sensors at 34%. warp engines down

CMO_Xye says:
::touches the Lieutenant's shoulder:: Carter: There isn't much I can do right now. Go to your quarters... read a book. Keep the neural stimulator on your head. But don't tamper with it. It is stimulating as your neural pathways degenerate. Any tampering could kill you. Do you understand?

XO_VanSickle says:
Ladies: So what were you doing in this sector?

Jisk says:
XO: so Commander.. are you cuter in.. or out of uniform?

Tisk says:
XO: We are traders and travel this area quite frequently.

XO_VanSickle says:
Tisk: What do you trade?

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Lt. Carter> ::Acknowledges the doctor, says thank you, and goes and does what he asked::

Tisk says:
XO: Whatever will make the most credits at the time...and what the demand is of course!

XO_VanSickle says:
Tisk: Currently?

Tisk says:
XO: Currently, nothing, as our ship has been blown to spacedust ::tears come to her eyes::

CMO_Xye says:
Self: Lieutenant Carter never listens to me. I have a feeling he's going to tamper with that thing.

Jisk says:
::eyes the XO and grins:: XO: and a few wants.. from time to time

Tisk says:
::hears a noise and turns to see where it is coming from::

XO_VanSickle says:
Ladies: Did you hear that?

Jisk says:
::stiffens and jumps from chair:: Tisk: what was that!

Host CO_TPaula says:
CSO: Any new sensor data?

Tisk says:
::running to the window she movement just below it::

XO_VanSickle says:
::sees something outside::

Tisk says:
XO: Er em, I think you should see this ::pointing::

Jisk says:
::follows her sister::

CMO_Xye says:
::looks at computer:: Self: We have guests. Why wasn't I made aware. Hmm...

XO_VanSickle says:
*CO* VanSickle to T'Paula.

Host CO_TPaula says:
*XO*: Go ahead.

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: As Tisk rushes by, she sees a glimpse of a silver arm, quickly moving downward.

XO_VanSickle says:
*CO* Something is floating near the guest quarters.

CSO_Shiar says:
:: tries to make sensors more accurate::

Tisk says:
::gasps:: XO: My God...it is an arm ::shudders in horror::

XO_VanSickle says:
::takes a closer look::

Jisk says:
::presses face to window and strains to se::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: A figure leaps across the window upward, quite fast, all the XO sees is a shadow.

XO_VanSickle says:
*CO* We just saw some sort of silver or silver-clad arm outside.

Jisk says:
Tisk: what was it?

Tisk says:
::jumps back:: XO: We are not alone!

Host CO_TPaula says:
OPS: See if sensors can pick that up.

CSO_Shiar says:
CO: there are traces of Q'Orphod, federation and Klingon technology. the Q'Orphod were scavengers though

Tisk says:
Jisk:  I don't know and I don't want to know!

XO_VanSickle says:
*CO* Some figure just floated by here quickly.  Does Shiar have a fix on anything outside?

OPS_Russel says:
CO:  Aye.  ::Begins scans.::

OPS_Russel says:
CO:  Internal sensors don't pick up anything.

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Ens. Daniels> CO: Ma'am... I'm getting reports of clanging noises on the outside of the ship.

Host CO_TPaula says:
OPS: It's not internal.

Jisk says:
::looks around the room for anything that could be used as a weapon and stops at the table to grab another bite::

XO_VanSickle says:
Jisk: What are you doing?

Host CO_TPaula says:
Daniels: Send security teams to those areas.

Tisk says:
Jisk: How can you eat at a time like this ::looking disgustedly at her sister::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Ens. Daniels> CO: Aye, ma'am. ::Dispatches sec. teams to those areas::

Jisk says:
XO: I don't like being on alien ships with things walk around on their hull

CMO_Xye says:
::taps commbadge:: XO: Xye to Commander VanSickle. I have just been aware that we have guests. Shouldn't they come to sickbay for a check up?

Host CO_TPaula says:
CSO: Can you get a lock on anything in close proximity to the hull?

CSO_Shiar says:
CO: sir, we are now close enough for accurate scans

XO_VanSickle says:
Ladies: I suggest you both go to the center of the room away from the view ports.

XO_VanSickle says:
*CMO* Maybe later.

CSO_Shiar says:
FCO: stop the ship please

Tisk says:
XO: I would rather get out of here if you don't mind!

Host CO_TPaula says:
::hears a clanging on the hull above::

OPS_Russel says:
CO:  Do you hear that?

CMO_Xye says:
*XO*: Is something wrong? You sound nervous.

Jisk says:
Tisk: I agree

FCO_Vince says:
CO:  Aye, Full Stop.::  stops the ship::

XO_VanSickle says:
Ladies: OK, then, go straight to sickbay.  You'll be safe there, since it has no windows.

Host CO_TPaula says:
CSO: Find out what that is, please.

CSO_Shiar says:
CO: there's a "clanging" sir

XO_VanSickle says:
*CMO* Something or someone is outside these quarters.

Jisk says:
XO: you want us to walk around this ship alone?!

FCO_Vince says:
CO:  Would it be possible to shake him off at full impulse?

Tisk says:
XO: No way, I am not going to sickbay...

CMO_Xye says:
*XO*: Okay... once you find it and put force fields around it... I can flood the area with anesthezine.

XO_VanSickle says:
Ladies: Besides, it's our standard procedure.

Host CO_TPaula says:
CSO: Yes, I hear that.  What's causing it?

XO_VanSickle says:
*CMO* It's OUTSIDE!

Jisk says:
Tisk: I'm with you..

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Computer> Warning. Hull Breach. Deck One. Warning. Hull Breach. Deck One. Force-fields coming into place.

CSO_Shiar says:
CO: there's now a shrieking of metal

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Ens. Daniels> ::Looks upward::

Host CO_TPaula says:
::now hears a sizzling and shrieking of metal::

Tisk says:
XO: Oh my God, you destroy our ship, now what is happening to yours?

OPS_Russel says:
CO:  It's breaking the hull!

CMO_Xye says:
*XO*: Not anymore. ::holds self from laughter::

CSO_Shiar says:
::Looks up::

XO_VanSickle says:
Ladies: This way.  ::motions to the door::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: Suddenly, a red energy beam, in the form of a blade, begins to cut a hole right in front of the viewscreen.

Jisk says:
Tisk: they did?

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Ens. Daniels> *Security* Sec. Team Alpha to Bridge now!

FCO_Vince says:
::Looks anxious::

OPS_Russel says:
::Grabs a phaser.::

XO_VanSickle says:
*CO* What's happening?

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: That part of the bulkhead falls to the floor... and a figure drops to the ground... in a crouched position.

CSO_Shiar says:
::grabs a phaser rifle::

Tisk says:
::follows the XO out of their quarters:: Jisk: Come on, stay with me...

Jisk says:
::follows Tisk::

Host CO_TPaula says:
*XO*: We have another guest of sorts.

FCO_Vince says:
::Jumps over the helm toward the intruder::

CSO_Shiar says:
::aims rifle at figure::

CMO_Xye says:
*XO*: Site to site transporting the guests to the sickbay would be a logical action.

XO_VanSickle says:
*CMO* We're on our way now.

OPS_Russel says:
::Aims phaser at the figure.::

CEO_AQilla says:
::notes hull breach on the bridge and leaves ME for the bridge

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: It is a large figure... covered in what appears to be a silver exoskeleton, with three arms... and six legs... with two red beady eyes staring at them all.

CSO_Shiar says:
ALL: wow it's ugly

FCO_Vince says:
::Attempts to seize intruder::

XO_VanSickle says:
*CO* Can you describe the intruder?

Host CO_TPaula says:
*XO*: Big silver mutli-legged thing.

Tisk says:
Jisk:  I don't like what is happening ::whispering to her sister;: we need weapons.

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Intruder> ::Two of it's legs catch the FCO in the stomach, hurling him across the bridge right into the CSO::

CSO_Shiar says:
::places finger on trigger::

XO_VanSickle says:
*Bridge* Evacuate now!  That's the Bellicose!!!!

OPS_Russel says:
::Fires at the being.::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Bellicose> ::Doesn't make a sound, clenches it's three fists, and three energy blades appear, as it dives forward::

FCO_Vince says:
::Howls in frustration::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: Phaser fire hits the Bellicose head on, but it doesn't stop.

CSO_Shiar says:
::falls to floor then pushes FCO off, starts shooting::

Jisk says:
::pauses and looks up and down the hall.. then nods:: Tisk : yeah.. ::whispers:: grabs one of those things off a passing alien.. just like I showed you back in Prima

Tisk says:
::grabs Jisk and runs down the corridor away from the XO::

CMO_Xye says:
::whispers over commbadge:: *CO*: How about everyone clearing the bridge... except the creature... and I fill the bridge with a deadly poison.

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Bellicose> ::Dives over OPS, using it's training, recognizes these uniforms... recognizes the threat... identifies the leader::

Host CO_TPaula says:
OPS: Lock out the bridge.  all: To auxiliary control, now!

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: CSO's wild shooting merely puts one or two holes in the bulkhead, nothing serious though... the FCO is fine, although a bit angry.

CSO_Shiar says:
:: keeps firing::

Jisk says:
Tisk: or this! ::runs for it.. grabbing a phaser from a passing security officer::

XO_VanSickle says:
Computer: Lock onto all SF officers on the bridge and initiate site-to-site transport to sickbay.  Authorization VanSickle Beta 244.

CMO_Xye says:
Computer: Viewscreen display bridge.

FCO_Vince says:
CO:  No Kidding!::  attempts to help people to TL::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: Security Team Alpha arrives on the bridge, one of them brings along a photon grenade.

OPS_Russel says:
::Runs to TL.::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Bellicose> ::Is being slowed down by the constant phaser fire, which is denting it's armor::

Tisk says:
::watches as the security guard goes down and her sister acquire his weapon::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: All senior officers on the bridge, sans sec. team, appear in sickbay.

Jisk says:
::tosses it to Tisk:: Tisk: here!

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Sec. Team Beta II> ::Lands on the ground:: Oof

XO_VanSickle says:
::enters sickbay w/ Tisk and Jisk::

Tisk says:
::catches the weapon in mid air::  Jisk:  Now what? ::running::

FCO_Vince says:
::growls::

CMO_Xye says:
::jumps back:: ALL: Please state the nature of the medical emergency.

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Sec. Team Alpha IV> ::Hurls the grenade at the Bellicose:: Everyone down!

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Sec. Team Alpha> ::Dives::

XO_VanSickle says:
::or at least thought they were behind me::

Host CO_TPaula says:
all: Like I said, auxiliary control.  I want level 10 forcefields everywhere those things are trying to get in.

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: Bellicose explodes... very messy for a moment, then, the remains crumble into dust.

CSO_Shiar says:
::jumps down still firing::

Jisk says:
::ambushes another security officer and grabs his phaser:: Tisk: now.. well.. we have weapons

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: All is silent.

CSO_Shiar says:
::stops firing::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The CSO burns the rug.

Tisk says:
Jisk:  Where do you suggest we go on this ship?  They will have our location in moments!

CSO_Shiar says:
ALL: sorry about the rug

FCO_Vince says:
::goes to a terminal::  Did the gas work?

Jisk says:
Tisk: this place is huge.. must be a shuttle or smaller ship someplace

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Sec. Team Beta> ::Suddenly run around a corner, and surround Tisk and Jisk::

CEO_AQilla says:
::decides to go to sickbay to see if she can help::

Tisk says:
Jisk:  Wait, lets ask the computer where the shuttle bays are.

XO_VanSickle says:
CO: What happened up there, captain?

Jisk says:
::nods:: Tisk: go right ahead.. ::looks up and down the hall::

CMO_Xye says:
CO: I'm curious to hear what happened.

Tisk says:
Jisk: Now we are in a mess ::looking at the security forces::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Sec. Team Alpha I> *CO* Captain... the threat has been neutralized. We've secured the bridge. Ship is being searched for further intruders. We believe you can return to the bridge.

Host CO_TPaula says:
XO: The being came in through the ceiling, and various bridge crew attacked it.

CMO_Xye says:
CO: Talk about a warm welcome.

Host CO_TPaula says:
*Sec team Alpha I*: Thank you.

CEO_AQilla says:
::enters sickbay and sees bridge crew there::

Jisk says:
::heads into a door way for cover:: Computer: where are the shuttles?

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Sec. Team Beta> ::Escorts Tisk and Jisk back to their quarters, get their phaser back::

CMO_Xye says:
::jumps back:: CEO: Please state the nature of the medical emergency.

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Sec. Team Beta VI & VII> ::Grab Jisk by the arms and drag her along::

Host CO_TPaula says:
CEO: What's the status of the bridge?

Tisk says:
::just great, now we are without weapons again, walking slowly back to their quarters::

XO_VanSickle says:
Computer: Status of our guests Jisk and Tisk?

Jisk says:
::whispers:: Tisk: we almost made it

CMO_Xye says:
ALL in Sickbay: Nice to see you all here. Who needs assistance?

FCO_Vince says:
All:  Is everyone okay?

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Computer> XO: They are currently on deck 26.

Tisk says:
::whispers:: Jisk:  Almost doesn't count, I wonder what was happening?

Host CO_TPaula says:
all:  Sickbay is not a place to control the ship from.  See you on the bridge.  ::leaves::

XO_VanSickle says:
CMO: I transported them here site-to-site to get them out of harm's way.

OPS_Russel says:
::follows the captain.::

CEO_AQilla says:
CO:  There is a large hull breach, a few phaser burns but otherwise systems are OK, Captain

XO_VanSickle says:
::follows the crew out::

FCO_Vince says:
All: Agreed  ::follows the Captain::

CEO_AQilla says:
::follows the bridge crew::

CMO_Xye says:
::follows bridge crew:: Crew: Do you need any assistance from me?

XO_VanSickle says:
CO: ::rushes up to her:: I believe the Bellicose may be setting traps.

Host CO_TPaula says:
CSO: I want you to locate any Bellicose lifesigns in the vicinity.

Jisk says:
Tisk: dunno.. but I don't think I wanna stay to find out

Host CO_TPaula says:
XO: Of what sort?

CSO_Shiar says:
CO: mind you don't step on it sir

XO_VanSickle says:
CO: To capture or kill Q'Orphod.

Tisk says:
Jisk:  And how do you propose that we leave with no ship?

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The CO steps on the Bellicose dust.

Host CO_TPaula says:
XO: How?

Jisk says:
Tisk: I'm working on it

XO_VanSickle says:
CO: That dead zone, possibly.

Host CO_TPaula says:
::shakes the dust off her shoe and steps back::

OPS_Russel says:
::Sits at his station.::

CSO_Shiar says:
::scans for the ugly big things::

XO_VanSickle says:
CO: ::points at the dust:: The intruder?

Host CO_TPaula says:
XO: That would explain the Q’Orphod wreckage.

Tisk says:
Security:  I need to speak with the Captain, can you inform her please?

Host CO_TPaula says:
XO: I assume.

OPS_Russel says:
::Wipes the dust off his panel.::

CSO_Shiar says:
XO: yep

FCO_Vince says:
::walking to the bridge:: CO:  Captain, would protocol allow me to carry my dagger at my post?

Host CO_TPaula says:
CSO: Bellicose lifesigns?

CMO_Xye says:
::looks at the dust: CEO: Looks like the janitor has a lot of cleaning to do.

Tisk says:
::hearing security talking about some race called the Q'Orphod::

CSO_Shiar says:
CO: none

XO_VanSickle says:
CO: I believe these dead zones are residuals of some sort, which the Bellicose can use to dampen warp drives.

Jisk says:
::is glad to be back in the room with the food..::

XO_VanSickle says:
CO: When the ship drops out of warp... BOOM!.

CEO_AQilla says:
CMO:  Yeah.  Is that what remains of the Bellicose?

Host CO_TPaula says:
CSO: You're sure you can detect them?

CMO_Xye says:
CEO: I guess so.

CSO_Shiar says:
CO: yes

Tisk says:
::wonders why no one asks her about the dead zones::

CMO_Xye says:
::pulls out medical tricorder and scans some of the dust::

Host CO_TPaula says:
XO: What did you find out from the freighter crew?

XO_VanSickle says:
CO: Not much.

XO_VanSickle says:
CO: They didn't know what the Q'Orphod was.

Jisk says:
::has a seat back at the table and begins to pick over food again::

Host CO_TPaula says:
XO: The Bellicose?

XO_VanSickle says:
CO: Didn't ask them about that.

Tisk says:
::sits down next to her sister and begins to nibble at the food::

CEO_AQilla says:
CMO:  Anything?

XO_VanSickle says:
CO: But when that Bellicose floated outside the ship, they were rather agitated.

Jisk says:
Tisk: did that .. what ever you saw look familiar?

CMO_Xye says:
CEO: It is the Bellicose.

Host CO_TPaula says:
XO: All right, it's your turn to deal with the Bellicose coming through the ceiling and my turn to talk to the freighter crew.  You have the bridge.

Tisk says:
Jisk:  Yeah, like those things we saw a couple of years ago.

XO_VanSickle says:
CO: Aye.

Jisk says:
::takes a drink of something green:: Tisk: yeah? hmmph .. hey this isn't bad.. but it's missing something

Host CO_TPaula says:
::enters TL:: TL: Deck 26.  <TL> ::takes CO to deck 26::

XO_VanSickle says:
::thinks that was a lame attempt at sarcasm by T'Paula::

CSO_Shiar says:
CO: i now have enough info about the wreckage as i can get

Tisk says:
::takes a sip:: Jisk:  Yeah, rather mild isn't it?

XO_VanSickle says:
CSO: What do you have?

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: Audience that crew cannot hear cheer about T'paula's first attempt at sarcasm.

Jisk says:
::nods:: Tisk: you remember where they went? didn't see em long.. and boy.. talk about unfriendly..

CMO_Xye says:
::walks to the CSO:: CSO: By adding the medical data in this tricorder to your scan... you might be able to scan the Bellicose sooner.

Tisk says:
Jisk:  Well, wherever they went, they left those spatial distortions in their path...

CSO_Shiar says:
XO: there is approximately 56% Q'Orphod technology 10% Federation specifically from the U.S.S. New Guinea, another 10% from Klingon, and remaining 23% unknown.

XO_VanSickle says:
CSO: The New Guinea?

Host CO_TPaula says:
::rings the doorchime on Tisk's and Jisk's quarters::

CSO_Shiar says:
CMO: I’ll get on it

Jisk says:
::tosses the empty glass at the wall:: Tisk: hmmph.. alien male.. he sure was cute thought .. wasn't he ::grins::

Tisk says:
Enter, whoever you are.

Host CO_TPaula says:
::comes in::

CSO_Shiar says:
XO: yes

XO_VanSickle says:
CSO: When were they reported missing?

CSO_Shiar says:
::downloads tricorder data::

Tisk says:
CO: Yes? and who are you?

Host CO_TPaula says:
Jisk/Tisk: I'm Captain T'Paula.

CSO_Shiar says:
XO: I’m not sure

Jisk says:
::looks up at the pointy eared female:: Tisk: more aliens.. ::grabs another glass::

OPS_Russel says:
XO:  The New Guinea was a Nebula Class Starship, and was destroyed on stardate 9802.02 in defense of a Federation colony.

Tisk says:
::glares at her sister:: CO: Captain, I am Tisk and this is my sister Jisk.

Jisk says:
::waves::

XO_VanSickle says:
OPS: Where was the colony?

CMO_Xye says:
::listens to interesting conversation between the CSO and the XO::

Host CO_TPaula says:
Jisk/Tisk: Pleased to meet you in person.  I was wondering if you knew anything about the aliens we just saw, or this area of space?

FCO_Vince says:
::exits TL and goes to the helm, and immediately begins a visual diagnostic::

Jisk says:
CO: this area of space is broke.. and it eats ships .. 

Tisk says:
CO: Yes I do Captain, quite a bit in fact about the space...but the creature we have seen only once before.

Host CO_TPaula says:
Tisk: When?

FCO_Vince says:
::checks helm and propulsion controls for damage::

Tisk says:
CO: These aliens came through here a couple of years ago, and wherever they went, they left what you are calling dead zones.

CEO_AQilla says:
::watches Eng. team repairing hull breach::

Jisk says:
::finishes off another glass of green stuff:: CO: care for one? ::holds up a glass::

Host CO_TPaula says:
::looks slightly alarmed for an instant:: Jisk: No thanks.

XO_VanSickle says:
CSO: How are those scans going on Bellicose?

Jisk says:
Tisk: we called it the dead zone.. cause it is.. CO

CMO_Xye says:
::walks to science console and looks at data::

CSO_Shiar says:
XO: nothing detected

Jisk says:
CO: s'ok.. leaves more for me.. ::drinks the glass::

OPS_Russel says:
XO:  It was... the Atvaria system, Jedura Colony. A Q'Orphod fleet was attempting to drain energy from the colony, the New Guinea came in the way, and it's energy was drained... it caused the vessel to crash land on the surface. Several thousands lives were lost when the New Guinea crashed into the main capital of the colony.

FCO_Vince says:
CEO:  Can I offer a hand?

XO_VanSickle says:
CSO: Keep me posted if there is even a microjoule of activity by a Bellicose.

Tisk says:
CO: Yes, and they form a trail of sorts...

Host CO_TPaula says:
Tisk: What sort of trail?

OPS_Russel says:
XO:  The Griffon tried to stop the crash, but failed.  There are pictures as well if you want.

CSO_Shiar says:
CMO: if we do detect something, should we use ship phasers to slice it in half

Tisk says:
CO: Well, one heads toward a space station, if you are foolish enough to follow it.

Jisk says:
CO: so uhh.. where’s the Cute one hiding? you wouldn't mind if I .. borrowed him for a while would you? ::grins:: I'll give him back .. in .. one piece anyway

XO_VanSickle says:
::aloud:: The Q'Orphod and the Bellicose, two scourges of the galaxy fighting each other.

Host CO_TPaula says:
Tisk: Whose space station?  Can we detect the trails?

CMO_Xye says:
CSO: I wouldn't. The Federation doesn't shoot first and ask questions later.

Tisk says:
CO: Well the name of it is Zi Aquari, made up of several species.  If you like, I can come to the bridge and show you the way there, but I don't suggest it ::frowning::

CEO_AQilla says:
FCO:  No, I think the Eng. teams have everything under control at the moment.  Thanks for the offer, though.

Jisk says:
Tisk: we are still on this ship.. remember!

CSO_Shiar says:
CMO: that's what i like about the Romulan fleet

Host CO_TPaula says:
Tisk: They came from there, or went there?

FCO_Vince says:
CEO:  Anytime

Tisk says:
Jisk:  And how do you suggest we get off this ship without the Captain's help?

XO_VanSickle says:
CMO: Doctor, if we are in clear and present danger, we do have authorization to make the first move.

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: OPS accidentally touches a button... and the pictures of the crash fill the screen...

Tisk says:
CO: They went in that direction...

CMO_Xye says:
XO: Of course. Yes sir.

CMO_Xye says:
CSO: Hmm... if only we knew more. I'm curious if the Bellicose come on a schedule. A greater reason.

CSO_Shiar says:
ALL: What the hell!!

Host AGM_Selan says:
VIEWSCREEN: Images of death and destruction follow. Desperate Starfleet Medical crew, from the U.S.S. Griffon, are seen rushing to the aide of burnt and dismembered colonists... the remains of a Nebula Class Starship are seen spread out over two miles.

XO_VanSickle says:
OPS: What is that?

Tisk says:
CO: But the trail also extends beyond the space station.

OPS_Russel says:
XO:  I must have pushed the wrong button, it's pictures of the crash.

CMO_Xye says:
::looks shocked at the CSO's outburst... then looks at the screen::

XO_VanSickle says:
OPS: Go back to forward visual immediately!

Host AGM_Selan says:
VIEWSCREEN: Crumbled buildings, and raging fires are seen everywhere... a fragment of a hull plate which says -ew Guine-- before being burnt off completely.

OPS_Russel says:
XO:  Aye.  ::Puts forward visual back.::

Host AGM_Selan says:
VIEWSCREEN: Returns to normal.

FCO_Vince says:
MY God (in Klingon)::looks at image on screen::

Jisk says:
::takes another bite of an apple and looks at the CO::

CEO_AQilla says:
::looks at image and wonders what that was::

Jisk says:
CO: so what about the Cute XO of yours?

Jisk says:
CO: can I have him for a few hours?

Host CO_TPaula says:
Tisk: Is there anything else you know?

Host CO_TPaula says:
Jisk: He's busy at the moment.

Tisk says:
CO: Other than what I have told you, nothing much...as you can see, they are dangerous...you will need more help than just your ship!

Host CO_TPaula says:
Tisk: Thank you.

Jisk says:
CO: tell him.. I'm free when he is ::leans back in chair and fingers the apple with a grin before taking another bite::

Tisk says:
CO: I will come with you and show you the way to the space station... I am afraid we fly by sight, not coordinates.

Host CO_TPaula says:
Tisk: Thank you.  ::leaves for bridge::

Jisk says:
CO: if you don't mind.. I think I'll take a walk..

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Sec. Team Beta III> ::Blocks Jisk's way of getting out::

Tisk says:
::watches as the door closes in both their faces::  Jisk:  Well I don't guess they want our help!

Jisk says:
Tisk: no guess not..

Host CO_TPaula says:
Jisk: I'd suggest keeping the security guard with you in case we're attacked again.

CMO_Xye says:
XO: We should send probes and keep them here... when the bellicose come they could send ships to get rid of them.

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Sec. Team Beta III> ::Allows Tisk to go by, being escorted by IV, not sure about Jisk::

XO_VanSickle says:
CMO: Good idea.

XO_VanSickle says:
CSO: Do it.

FCO_Vince says:
XO:  Helm and propulsion controls appear undamaged

Tisk says:
::follows the CO::

CSO_Shiar says:
::strokes rifle before putting it away::

Jisk says:
SEC: oh pipe down.. I'm not leaving with out sis
