Host CTO_Selan says:
<Starbase 64 Operations> @ COM: Darkedge: Flight records received. Please do not do this again, Darkedge, otherwise you may be fired upon. Do you wish to dock?

Host XO_VanSickle says:
@*CMO* Let me guess.  Mr. Bauer and Mr. Nmbarri.

TO_Nmbarri says:
::hears the CMO talking, decides to wait for her outside of sickbay::

Host CTO_Selan says:
::Makes his way to the CO's side::

CMO_Garta says:
*XO* Bauer and Nmbarri are preparing for a fight in the holodeck.  As angry as Bauer was last night, there will definitely be blood-shed sir.

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
@::takes her purchases and heads back to the ship ... wanting to try the clothes on the twins::

FCO_Vince says:
COMM:  SB64:  Not necessary.  They're just dropping me off and returning to Klingon space.

Host CO_TPaula says:
CTO: Good day; how are things going in the world outside Sickbay?

%::transports onto the starbase::

Host CTO_Selan says:
CO: The crew is fine. Any damages caused by the pirates have been repaired. And how are you faring?

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
::arrives in her quarters and looks in on the twins ... sees they're asleep and leaves them be::

Host CTO_Selan says:
<OPS on Bridge> *CEO* Cmdr.?

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
*OPS*:  Cmdr Horn here.

Host CO_TPaula says:
CTO: I'd have to ask Dr. Garta.

Host CTO_Selan says:
<OPS on Bridge> *CEO* Recorded message from Starfleet Command, ma'am.

Host XO_VanSickle says:
@*CMO* I'll be right over.  Nearest shopkeeper: Could you arrange to have my packages beamed over to my quarters on the Scorpius?  I have a ship's emergency to tend to.

TO_Nmbarri says:
::decides to get the CMO moving, goes inside sickbay and asks if she is ready to go::

CMO_Garta says:
<Houlihan> CMO: Aye ma'am.

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
*OPS*:  Acknowledged.  Put it through to my quarters.

Host XO_VanSickle says:
@<Shopkeeper> XO: Yes, commander.

TO_Nmbarri says:
CMO: Doctor, we shall be late, are you ready to go yet?

CMO_Garta says:
*XO* Thank you sir, Garta out.

Host XO_VanSickle says:
@::rushes to the airlock leading to the Scorpius::

FCO_Vince says:
Computer:  Locate Commander VanSickle

Host CTO_Selan says:
::Nods:: CO: In that case, how are you  feeling, Captain?

CMO_Garta says:
TO: Just now.  ::exits sickbay::

Host CO_TPaula says:
CTO: Physically well.

TO_Nmbarri says:
::walks off with the CMO::

CMO_Garta says:
<Sopok> ::walks up to the CO and CTO:: CO: How are you this morning?

Host CTO_Selan says:
<Computer>  FCO: Commander Eric VanSickle is entering the U.S.S. Scorpius at Docking Port Three.

TO_Nmbarri says:
CMO: We will be using HD2, there is a good program set up there already.

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
::Puts staff down stretches does a couple flips, runs in place::

Host XO_VanSickle says:
::runs across the gangplank to the Scorpius, then enters nearest TL:: Computer: Holodeck 2!

Host CO_TPaula says:
Sopok: Well.

FCO_Vince says:
::sees the XO run past him::

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
::receives the message and opens it ... goes pale as she reads::

CMO_Garta says:
TO: Are you sure about this Telok?

FCO_Vince says:
XO:  Commander, wait up

FCO_Vince says:
::follows the XO::

Host CTO_Selan says:
::Pulls up a seat beside the CO::

TO_Nmbarri says:
CMO: Jenise, you know there is no other way, it must be this way.

Host XO_VanSickle says:
::holds the door for the FCO:: FCO: Welcome back, lieutenant.

CMO_Garta says:
<Sopok> CO: When you feel strong enough, you can be released into the CTO's care.

FCO_Vince says:
XO:  Glad to be back, Sir.  What's going on?

Host CTO_Selan says:
CO: Glad to hear it. I know firsthand how being a prisoner of the Pirates feels.

Host XO_VanSickle says:
FCO: You've come just in time.  I need you to help talk some sense into our counselor and tactical/security officer.

Host CTO_Selan says:
::Looks at Sopok::

CMO_Garta says:
TO: Just make sure you both live through this okay?  I've seen enough death of the people I care about.

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
::finishes reading the message ... just stands there, a look of horror and shock on her face::

TO_Nmbarri says:
::looks at the CMO, holds up a pain stick:: CMO: I promise to only use this as a last resort.

FCO_Vince says:
XO:  Have they had their challenge match yet?

Host XO_VanSickle says:
FCO: That's what I'm talking about.

TO_Nmbarri says:
::arrives at HD2 and enters::

CMO_Garta says:
TO: Okay.  I contacted Jesse about the fight.  I hope she makes it.

Host XO_VanSickle says:
FCO: I don't want two of my finest officers beating each others' heads in.

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
::Sees Telok enter::

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
TO: 'bout time

Host XO_VanSickle says:
::TL stops near HD 2::

Host CO_TPaula says:
::nods::

CMO_Garta says:
::follows Nmbarri into the HD and walks straight up to Bauer::

CMO_Garta says:
CNS: Are you sure about this Zach?

TO_Nmbarri says:
CNS: Do not rush into this counselor, no need to run to your ending.

FCO_Vince says:
XO:  That may be unavoidably necessary

Host XO_VanSickle says:
::walks up to the HD 2 entrance:: Computer: What program is running?

FCO_Vince says:
::approaches HD2::

TO_Nmbarri says:
::sets up the staffs and pain sticks, checks the program to make sure all is ready::

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
CMO: Yes you had better go to your boyfriends corner now....ok?

Host XO_VanSickle says:
FCO: What is necessary is that we stop this nonsense.

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
::exits her quarters, wandering the corridors of the ship in a daze ... ends up at HD2 and sees the XO and the FCO::

Host CTO_Selan says:
Sopok: In that case, I will escort the Captain to her quarters.

CMO_Garta says:
CNS: And you had both better live through this or I'm liable to kill the winner myself, clear?

FCO_Vince says:
XO:  I should probably inform you that the match was partly, slightly my idea as well

Host XO_VanSickle says:
Computer: What program is running????

CMO_Garta says:
<Sopok> CTO: Affirmative. ::walks away::

Host CO_TPaula says:
::gets off the biobed and stands::

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
TO: Lets dance Klingon ::Takes fight stance armed with staff::

Host CTO_Selan says:
::Helps the CO up::

Host CTO_Selan says:
<Computer> ::Tells the XO what program is running::

CMO_Garta says:
::backs up against the wall::

Host XO_VanSickle says:
::hears the FCO and glares at him::  FCO: That's why you have to help me stop them!  Computer: Enter!

FCO_Vince says:
<Computer>XO:  The current running program is Nmbarri/Bauer one

TO_Nmbarri says:
::wont move so fast, takes his time, making sure all is ready, goes to Jenise and gives her a hug::

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
::overhears the XO and makes to enter the HD herself::

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
:: setting mountain terrain flat area surrounded by rocks::

Host CTO_Selan says:
ACTION: The Holodeck doors swish open before the XO, FCO & CEO [and MO who seemingly doesn't notice the others] to reveal the TO & CNS about to go at it.

CMO_Garta says:
::hugs Telok back:: TO: Be careful.  He's my best friend.

Host XO_VanSickle says:
::sees the MO and the CEO:: MO/CEO: I think you two had best help too, ladies.

Host CO_TPaula says:
::heads for the door of sickbay, her ultimate destination her quarters::

FCO_Vince says:
::enters the HD::

Host XO_VanSickle says:
TO/CNS: Ensign, lieutenant, STOP!

TO_Nmbarri says:
CMO: I promise to go easy on him.

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
TO: Today?

FCO_Vince says:
::stands aside shaking his head::

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
::rushes in:: TO/CNS:   What is going on here?

CMO_Garta says:
XO: Cmdr.  May I speak with all of you?

TO_Nmbarri says:
CNS: Today IS a good day to die.

Host XO_VanSickle says:
CMO: In a moment.

Host CTO_Selan says:
::Helps the CO along:: CO: I'm afraid the Klingon High Command is  not particularly thrilled with the Scorpius currently, however.

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
::Is standing there spinning staff::

Host XO_VanSickle says:
TO: I said STOP!

Host CO_TPaula says:
CTO: We did nothing but respond to a distress signal.

TO_Nmbarri says:
::grabs a staff and prepares, but waits for the XO to comment::

FCO_Vince says:
TO:  Remember, this doesn't have to end in death, only respect

FCO_Vince says:
Computer:  Delete audience

Host CTO_Selan says:
CO: The distress call, I believe, was a ruse to draw the other pirates out into a trap. We apparently ruined the trap.

TO_Nmbarri says:
FCO: I understand.

CMO_Garta says:
::places a hand on the XO's arm:: XO: Please sir, I need to speak with you now.

FCO_Vince says:
::The dozens of Klingons, Andorians, etc. in the stands of the arena vanish::

Host XO_VanSickle says:
TO/CNS: You two are NOT going to fight on THIS ship.

Host CO_TPaula says:
CTO: Ah.  They didn't seem to be much of a match for the pirates, though; how did we prevent their trap from springing?

CMO_Garta says:
XO: Cmdr. If you don't let them fight here, then they will fight on the Starbase.

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
XO: It is off duty time sure please bud out

TO_Nmbarri says:
XO: Sir, with all due respect, this program is set up so that we can get this out of our system, and NOT kill each other, if you make us leave, there is no guarantee of that outcome.

FCO_Vince says:
TO/CNS:  I thought you would at least wait until we were here, or at least a medic

Host XO_VanSickle says:
CMO: Then let them fight there!

Host CTO_Selan says:
CO: The High Command claims we "distracted their now dead soldiers at an inopportune time." ::Pauses a moment:: Why didn't you tell me about Gul Sur?

CMO_Garta says:
FCO: Do I not look like a medic to you?

Host CO_TPaula says:
CTO: It was classified.

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
::Spins staff around fakes shot to TO's legs but right jabs to head::

FCO_Vince says:
CMO:  Sorry.  It was just an example

TO_Nmbarri says:
FCO: We have the doctor here.

FCO_Vince says:
TO:  Now we do!

CMO_Garta says:
XO: And then what sir?

Host XO_VanSickle says:
TO/FCO: Gentlemen, STOP!

FCO_Vince says:
Computer:  End program

TO_Nmbarri says:
::jumps up but gets hit in the face::

Host XO_VanSickle says:
TO/FCO: Put those Klingon weapons away.

Host XO_VanSickle says:
Computer: Clear program!

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
XO:  Sir, maybe we should let them do this ...

CMO_Garta says:
XO: Permission to speak freely sir?

Host XO_VanSickle says:
All: Just be quiet!

FCO_Vince says:
XO:  I still don't know if that'll help, but maybe the program will no longer feed their fire

Host CTO_Selan says:
::Stares at her for a moment, then nods:: CO: I see.

Host XO_VanSickle says:
TO/CNS: Can you two stop for two seconds?

FCO_Vince says:
All:  I'd like to hear what the XO has to say

Host XO_VanSickle says:
FCO: Thank you.  TO/CNS: If you two want to ease frustration between you, instead of going at it with Klingon weapons, box.

FCO_Vince says:
::realizes he's still holding his bag::

CMO_Garta says:
XO: Sir, the Ensign is over 2 meters tall, Bauer could barely reach his face!

Host XO_VanSickle says:
CMO: Ever hear of body blows?

Host CO_TPaula says:
CTO: SFC didn't want the information more available than necessary...

CMO_Garta says:
XO: Ever hear of fair play sir?

Host CTO_Selan says:
CO: Especially to one whose love was murdered by one of Gul Sur's subordinates.

Host XO_VanSickle says:
CMO: Then what do you suggest they do without using weapons?

Host XO_VanSickle says:
CMO: Wrestle?

Host CTO_Selan says:
::Arrives at the TL, and helps the CO in::

FCO_Vince says:
XO:  Their weapons are non lethal, if that's what you're concerned about

CMO_Garta says:
XO: The weapons have been blunted sir.  I was unaware of that when I contacted you.  I suggest certain parties sit down and shut up and let them fight.....Sir!

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
ALL: You all either stay out of this and stay or leave::

Host XO_VanSickle says:
CMO: OK.  I get your point.  I'll let them fight...

FCO_Vince says:
Computer:  Restart program

Host XO_VanSickle says:
TO/CNS: But I'm going to be referee.

CMO_Garta says:
::holds up her kit:: XO: Besides, nothing will happen to them physically that I can't fix.

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
XO: No one asked for a ref SIR!

TO_Nmbarri says:
XO: Stay clear commander, or you could be more than a referee

Host CO_TPaula says:
CTO: While that may have been considered, you were not the only one with whom I didn't share the information.

CMO_Garta says:
XO: Thank you. ::shows the group to seats on the front row::

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
::can't stand any longer as the shock and realization hits her ... collapses to the floor::

Host CTO_Selan says:
CO: I know ...

TO_Nmbarri says:
::turns back to the CNS:: CNS: Fight Human...it Is a good day to die!

Host XO_VanSickle says:
CNS/TO: I'll stay out of your way, but if it gets out of hand, I can stop the fight and declare a winner.

FCO_Vince says:
Computer:  Delete audience and add drumbeat

CMO_Garta says:
::sees the CEO collapse and runs to her side::

CMO_Garta says:
::opens her med kit and grabs a tricorder::

TO_Nmbarri says:
::swings staff from right to left to the CNS body::

Host XO_VanSickle says:
::watches the TO and CNS::

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
::Sprawls to the floor but is slightly hit on L shoulder::

FCO_Vince says:
::standing over the CEO::  CMO:  What's wrong with her?

Host XO_VanSickle says:
::hears the FCO and turns attention to CEO:: CEO: AQilla?

Host CTO_Selan says:
TL: Deck Two. ::Goes silent as the TL moves upward::

CMO_Garta says:
::grabs a hypo with a mild stimulant and applies it to the CEO's neck:: FCO: Her body is reacting as if she's in shock.

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
::back flips to a stand swings down at 337 degree angle to TO's head L>R::

FCO_Vince says:
::moves away to give the CMO room::

Host CO_TPaula says:
CTO: Then...

TO_Nmbarri says:
::surprised by the CNS move, hits dirt floor expecting horizontal hit to head::

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
::begins sobbing:: XO:  Sir, it-it's Russ .... he's missing ... ::begins sobbing uncontrollably::

FCO_Vince says:
::turns toward the fight and sits::

Host XO_VanSickle says:
CEO: Missing?  What happened?

CMO_Garta says:
FCO: Help me get her to a seat.  She's liable to be injured on the floor.

TO_Nmbarri says:
::gets to his feet and makes an upward swing to the CNS head::

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
XO:  Starfleet ::sniff:: doesn't know ... all they know is he's missing ...

Host CTO_Selan says:
::Looks at the CO, wondering if she'll finish the sentence::

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
::nerves make him error He jumps high into the air and is struck hard on his L leg Falls to floor

FCO_Vince says:
::approaches and picks up the CEO::

Host XO_VanSickle says:
CEO: How about his ship?

CMO_Garta says:
CEO: AQilla, where was he?

FCO_Vince says:
CMO:  Perhaps we should all move to the seats

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
XO:  I don't know ....

Host CO_TPaula says:
::can't figure out what she was saying:: CTO: I'm sorry, my brain has been rattled too much in the past weeks.

FCO_Vince says:
::carries the CEO away from the center::

Host CTO_Selan says:
CO: I understand. Do not worry about it.

CMO_Garta says:
FCO: Help me move her. ::takes AQilla by the arm and helps her stand::

Host XO_VanSickle says:
::helps the CMO and FCO with the CEO::

Host CO_TPaula says:
CTO: Starfleet will do something about those pirates, eventually.

CMO_Garta says:
::glances up at the TO thinking about AQilla's lost love::

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
CMO:  They were on a survey mission ... I'm not sure where ... ::sobs again::

Host CTO_Selan says:
CO: Maybe. ::Pause:: Things were ... tense while you were gone. For a peace-time atmosphere, it certainly seemed as though we were back in war.

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
::Quickly recovers and scrambles to his feet cartwheels to position behind TO. Plants staff tip on ground runs around it hanging on tight raises legs and feet in mid air , flies around to go for a 90 degree hit to TO's backside::

Host XO_VanSickle says:
CEO: Is Russ the only one not accounted for?

FCO_Vince says:
::sets her down on a bench::

CMO_Garta says:
CEO: Did just he disappear?

TO_Nmbarri says:
::taken by surprise again by the CNS, looses step and falls to the floor::

Host CO_TPaula says:
CTO: There is something like an ongoing war between Gul Sur's group and the Scorpius.

Host XO_VanSickle says:
::looks back at the ring, and thinks they should have used boxing gloves::

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
::yelling:: All:  Nobody knows!!!!!  Leave me alone!!!!!!!!

Host CTO_Selan says:
CO: I don't think Gul Sur considers it a war. Or at least he didn't until now.

FCO_Vince says:
::moves down to the bottom row::

Host XO_VanSickle says:
::turns back to the CEO:: CEO: AQilla, let me take you back to your quarters.

Host CTO_Selan says:
CO: His ordeal with the Klingons has changed him. Dangerously.

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
::Takes advantage of TO’s bumbling and takes a jab with the left end of staff to TO's head as he stands erect and turns to face him::

Host CO_TPaula says:
CTO: But we did.

FCO_Vince says:
::turns to observe the fight::

TO_Nmbarri says:
::dazed, doesn’t have time to defend and takes a hit to the forehead and falls over backwards::

CMO_Garta says:
CEO: AQilla, listen to me.  I want you to go lie down.  ::turns and digs in her med kit::

Host CTO_Selan says:
::Remains silent as the TL comes to a stop, then ... :: CO: I hate war.

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
::nods ... now too upset to speak::

TO_Nmbarri says:
::becomes angry and embarrassed::

Host XO_VanSickle says:
CEO: AQilla?

FCO_Vince says:
::begins humming and muttering under his breath::

CMO_Garta says:
XO: Cmdr. give her 2 of these.  It will help her sleep for at least 8 hours.  Someone will need to watch over the twins.

FCO_Vince says:
::seems almost in a trance::

Host XO_VanSickle says:
CMO: Leave that to me.

Host XO_VanSickle says:
::takes meds and helps CEO to her feet:: CEO: Let's go.  ::escorts her off HD2::

Host CO_TPaula says:
CTO: Yes, but how else do we respond? ... I'm not very good at following Surak's teachings.  But that's why the Scorpius has weapons.

Host XO_VanSickle says:
Computer: Exit.

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
::gets up and walks with help::

CMO_Garta says:
*Sopok* I want a message to check on Cmdr. Horn in 8 hours.

FCO_Vince says:
::continues concentrating on the match::

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
::swings staff at 225 angle L>R to TO's head as he is standing up::

CMO_Garta says:
<Sopok> *CMO* Aye Ma'am.

Host CTO_Selan says:
::Helps the CO out of the turbolift:: CO: We're explorers. Scientists. Students. We come out here to learn. Not to fight. Not to die.

CMO_Garta says:
::turns back to the fight::

TO_Nmbarri says:
::jumps up, the staff hits him in the head as blood trickles from the right side of his head::

Host XO_VanSickle says:
::walks with CEO down corridor to TL:: Computer: Deck 2.

CMO_Garta says:
FCO: Welcome home Vince.

Host CO_TPaula says:
CTO: If we did nothing but explore, you'd be out of a job.

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
::sniffs:: XO:  I don't know what I'll do without Russ ...

Host CTO_Selan says:
::Right side of mouth lightly forms a smile:: CO: You do have a point.

Host CO_TPaula says:
CTO: The Scorpius' function is not that narrowly defined.

FCO_Vince says:
CMO:  Thanks.  It's nice that things haven't changed too much while I was gone.

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
::tries to deflect with staff but is hit hard in the R leg and falls. Feels dumb he didn’t think to jump it::

Host CTO_Selan says:
CO: No,  it isn't. But I can't ... I won't believe that we're out here for the sole purpose of fighting.

Host XO_VanSickle says:
CEO: Hey.  Russ will be fine.  His crewmates will find him and bring him home.

Host CO_TPaula says:
CTO: That would be an even narrower definition.

CMO_Garta says:
FCO: Oh, there have been a few changes.

FCO_Vince says:
CMO:  That was sort of a joke

TO_Nmbarri says:
::swings upward to the CNS's body before letting him get to his feet::

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
::looks at him:: XO:  I hope so ... ::sobs again::

FCO_Vince says:
CMO:  The CNS is showing much courage, as well as an impressive performance

CMO_Garta says:
FCO: Oh, so my relationship with Telok is a joke?  ::glares at him::

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
::As he stands he sees attack coming at him and ducks::

Host XO_VanSickle says:
CEO: And Russ is a survivor.  He'll be home.

FCO_Vince says:
::does a double take:: CMO:  Relationship?!?

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
::Receives moderate but painful blow to R rib section::

TO_Nmbarri says:
::lunges at the CNS and jabs to the body::

CMO_Garta says:
::grins:: FCO: Yes, problem with that? ::turns back to the fight::

Host XO_VanSickle says:
::TL stops on deck two, XO helps CEO to quarters::

Host CTO_Selan says:
::As they come around toward the CO's quarters, he spots the XO helping the CEO along::

FCO_Vince says:
CMO:  Forgive me.  I didn't know.  I was referring to these two  ::nodding to the fight::

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
::Runs from TO runs up a rock wall & flips to end up behind him TO just as TO is upon him:: 

Host CTO_Selan says:
::Calls out:: XO: Commander, is something wrong with A'Qilla?

Host XO_VanSickle says:
CTO/CO: Selan, captain, something's up with Russ.

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
::Now behind TO brings staff straight up down on TO's skull::

Host CTO_Selan says:
::Frowns::

CMO_Garta says:
FCO: I know.  When they finally get  this out of their systems, then it will be my turn.

Host XO_VanSickle says:
::waits for CEO to open her quarters::

CMO_Garta says:
TO: Telok!  Watch out!

FCO_Vince says:
CMO:  turn to what?

TO_Nmbarri says:
::deflects the blow and becomes somewhat embarrassed::

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
::sees the CO and CTO and tries to compose herself::

FCO_Vince says:
CMO:  Silence!  There must be no interference.

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
::shakily opens the door::

CMO_Garta says:
FCO: Turn to explain to my boyfriend and my best friend exactly what their little tiff is doing to the rest of us.

Host CTO_Selan says:
::Concern comes across his face as he watches the haggard CEO enter her quarters::

CMO_Garta says:
FCO: Either that or just kill both of them.

TO_Nmbarri says:
::swings staff aiming for the CNS's head::

FCO_Vince says:
CMO:  This will end it, I assure you

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
::Tries to sidestep the attack but is struck hard in the R temple and hits the floor hard::

Host XO_VanSickle says:
::helps her inside and toward her bedroom::

Host CO_TPaula says:
::watches, also concerned but it doesn't show as much::

TO_Nmbarri says:
::is beginning to realize that the CNS isn’t a coward and is impressed with his fighting skills::

FCO_Vince says:
CMO:  I suppose only Andorians could appreciate what they're doing

CMO_Garta says:
FCO: I hope so.  Will you help me get them both to sickbay when this is over please?  I want to make certain they are okay.

FCO_Vince says:
CMO:  Certainly

Host CTO_Selan says:
CO: Commander VanSickle will ensure that she is ok. Shall we continue?

Host CO_TPaula says:
::nods::

Host XO_VanSickle says:
::escorts her to the edge of her bed and helps her sit:: CEO: Doc Garta wants you to take these.  They'll help you relax.

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
::lies down::

CMO_Garta says:
FCO: I would appreciate it more if I didn't have so many emotions wrapped up in this.

Host CTO_Selan says:
::Continues onto the CO's quarters::

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
XO:  I don't want to relax ... I must tell Russ's brother .... ::begins rambling::

Host XO_VanSickle says:
CEO: Shhh... Starfleet would have already done that.

FCO_Vince says:
CMO:  I'm concerned about one thing.  I expected a lot more from Telok.  He wouldn't let Zach win would he?

CMO_Garta says:
FCO: In the Resistance, you learned quickly to take out internal problems on the enemy, not on each other.

TO_Nmbarri says:
::swings down on the still ground at the CNS going for his legs::

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
::trying to get to feet he side step and is struck in back of his R knee A popping sound is heard::

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
XO:  Maybe .....

CMO_Garta says:
FCO: Let him?  No.  But I think Zach's putting up more of a fight than Telok expected.

Host XO_VanSickle says:
CEO: Just sleep it off for a while, and maybe you'll be more calm to talk to your brother-in-law.

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
XO:  And the twins ......

FCO_Vince says:
CMO:  I guess he's full of surprises

CMO_Garta says:
::hears the pop echo from Bauer:: FCO: Well, there goes joint number one.

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
::in pain gets to feet makes a determined 112 upward swing R>L at TO's body::

Host XO_VanSickle says:
CEO: I'll look after them.

Host CTO_Selan says:
::Finally arrives at the CO's quarters, and opens the doors. He helps her in [amazingly holding his own with the cane], and takes her to the nearest seat::

Host CO_TPaula says:
<Draupadi> ::hears the door and comes running::

CMO_Garta says:
FCO: So, when will they stop?  The twins could really use their god-father about now.

TO_Nmbarri says:
::swings staff downward at the CNS's head::

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
::On his feet does a back flip successfully dodges attack::

Host CTO_Selan says:
::Notes the incoming feline::

FCO_Vince says:
CMO:  This match would make even Chancellor Martok proud

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
::smiles in spite of herself::

Host XO_VanSickle says:
CEO: Now go to sleep.  ::smiles:: That's an order, commander.

CMO_Garta says:
FCO: How is the homeworld anyway?  You go by there on your LOA?

FCO_Vince says:
::reveling in the primal fury and passion of the fight::

Host CO_TPaula says:
::pets the cat as she jumps into her lap::  CTO: Who fed the cats while I was gone?

Host CTO_Selan says:
CO: I did.

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
::takes the medication the XO gave her and begins to drift off to sleep::

FCO_Vince says:
::shakes head:: CMO:  I'm sorry, Doctor.  What did you say?

TO_Nmbarri says:
::becomes more impressed with Zach’s skills, wonders where he learned them from::

Host CTO_Selan says:
::Sits across from the CO in a nearby chair::

CMO_Garta says:
FCO: I think I need to introduce Telok to Bajoran Spring ball.

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
::puts on show twisting and turning about from side to side he plays with staff with balance skill and showing his talent with weapon that has become like an extension to his body. he hopes he is making Ian proud then a upward swing at a 202 R TO’s head::

Host CO_TPaula says:
CTO: Thank you, and I'm sure they are grateful as well.

Host XO_VanSickle says:
::gets up to go see little Russ and Jala::

FCO_Vince says:
CMO:  Sounds fun

Host XO_VanSickle says:
::sees them in their playpen::

Host CO_TPaula says:
<Joy> ::wanders in and walks over to sit next to T'Paula's feet, Draupadi having taken the lap position already::

Host XO_VanSickle says:
Russ Jr./Jala: And how are my little cadets?

CMO_Garta says:
FCO: It is.  That Klingon fighting routine that's in the memory banks isn't bad either.  Although, I altered the enemy's a bit.

TO_Nmbarri says:
::bedazzled and almost enjoying Zach’s display miscalculates the direction of the swing coming upon him, jumps up and gets hit hard in the chest knocking the wind out of him::

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
::Dodging left then right of TO while twirling staff. Egging the Klingon on. Swings at A 67 degree angle at TO’s head. Zach is notably limping::

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
<Jala>:: points to the XO:: XO:  Dada

Host XO_VanSickle says:
Jala: No, not dada.  Eric.

TO_Nmbarri says:
::gets dizzy and ducks, but not fast enough, receives a painful blow to the back of his neck....decides its time to end this::

Host CTO_Selan says:
::Watches the Captain and her cats in silence. Mulling over T'salea's message to him. Is obviously troubled::

TO_Nmbarri says:
::makes an upward swing at the CNS's head using more muscle than he intended to::

Host XO_VanSickle says:
Jala: Dada is away for a little while, but he'll be back to see the both of you very, very soon. ::smiles::

FCO_Vince says:
CMO:  This fight could end at any time.  Zach has more than proven himself.  Even with an injured knee, look, he fights on

CMO_Garta says:
*Houlihan* Get those beds ready.  We are going to need them.

Host CO_TPaula says:
::thinks the CTO looks troubled::

Host CO_TPaula says:
CTO: Is something troubling you?

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
::Shows some fear as the sound of the TO's staff flips toward him. he wasnt expecting the rage in this one . He freezes and takes a severe blow to the head  Blood is seen down his face and matting his hair::

Host CTO_Selan says:
::Is shaken out of his reverie:: CO: Eh? Oh ... of course not.

CMO_Garta says:
FCO: I know.  Look at Telok's face, even in concentration you can tell he's impressed.

TO_Nmbarri says:
::scared by what he has done, begs Zach to stay down.  he knows the CNS is in pain, and feels for the kid for the first time::

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
::Looses consciousness it looks like he might not be getting up::

FCO_Vince says:
::jumps into the ring::

CMO_Garta says:
::grabs her med kit and jumps into the ring::

Host XO_VanSickle says:
::picks up Jala:: Jala: Now, have you wet other officers' seats lately? ::in baby talk::

FCO_Vince says:
Aloud:  It is done!

TO_Nmbarri says:
CNS: Zach, stay down, there is no dishonor in that.

Host CO_TPaula says:
::uncertain, really could have sworn something was troubling him::

TO_Nmbarri says:
::feels genuine concern for Zach and begs him to just stay down::

FCO_Vince says:
CMO:  You may want to check him before I pick him up

CMO_Garta says:
CNS: Zach, you have proven yourself. ::runs the tricorder over him:: Stay down.

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
<Jala> ::giggles as if she understands::

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
::Hearing TO telling him to "stay down" makes him come to and fight to get to his feet . the CNS makes a weak swing at a 247 angle going L>R at TO's head::

Host CO_TPaula says:
CTO: Are you sure?

TO_Nmbarri says:
CMO/FCO: it isn’t finished, please stand back.

Host CTO_Selan says:
::Contemplates telling the Captain the truth ...::

TO_Nmbarri says:
::ducks and avoids being hit::

FCO_Vince says:
TO:  If you insist  ::backs away::

CMO_Garta says:
CNS: Zach, you have a severe concussion, one more blow may kill you.

Host XO_VanSickle says:
::giggles back, and sets her back in the playpen; picks up Russ Jr.::  Russ Jr.: And how's the future of Starfleet's tactical squad?

CMO_Garta says:
CNS/TO: Men and their testosterone levels! ::grunts and backs away::

FCO_Vince says:
CMO:  How the @#$%$ can he still be conscious?!?

TO_Nmbarri says:
::understands why Zach has challenged him now, and realizes that Zach IS brave and deserves his respect::

Host CO_TPaula says:
::stares quizzically at Selan::

CEO_AQilla_Horn says:
<Russ> ::grabs a handful of hair and pulls::

CMO_Garta says:
FCO: Adrenaline and testosterone...a deadly combination.

TO_Nmbarri says:
::delivers a blow to Zach’s legs hoping that he will stay down::

Host XO_VanSickle says:
Aloud: Ow!

Host XO_VanSickle says:
Russ Jr.: Already with the martial arts, eh?

CNS_Zach_Bauer says:
::Defects hit Makes running jab at TO's body barely able to walk but still makes a fine offensive move::

Host CTO_Selan says:
CO: I received a communication from T'salea.

Host CO_TPaula says:
CTO: Was it troubling?

FCO_Vince says:
CMO:  Maybe this is incentive to learn the neck pinch, if a non-Vulcan can learn it

Host CTO_Selan says:
CO: ... yes.

Host XO_VanSickle says:
::sets Russ Jr. back in the play pen next to Jala::

Host CO_TPaula says:
CTO: How so?

Host CTO_Selan says:
CO: T'salea is on the Paula Greene with her husband, Captain Madred. Madred has become the ship's CO. It seems they have taken aboard an interesting civilian ...

TO_Nmbarri says:
::ducks and takes a hit to his kidney area...feels angry again and breaks staff on the ground and reaches for his pain stick::

Host XO_VanSickle says:
::walks over to a terminal:: Computer: Set up visual communications with the captain's quarters.

Host CTO_Selan says:
<Computer> XO: Visual communication established.

CMO_Garta says:
FCO: Or maybe I should use the sedative hypos I have in my kit.

Host XO_VanSickle says:
*CO/CTO* Captain, Selan, you both have a moment?

FCO_Vince says:
CMO:  Tempting...

TO_Nmbarri says:
:;jabs the pain stick at the CNS's body hoping it shocks him unconscious::

Host CTO_Selan says:
::Was about to tell the Captain who the civilian was, but is thankful for the XO's interruption. T'Paula has enough to worry about:: *XO* Certainly, Commander.

Host CO_TPaula says:
::looks at Selan::

Host CTO_Selan says:
ACTION: The CNS is knocked unconscious.

Host CO_TPaula says:
::fully intends to reintroduce the subject::

Host XO_VanSickle says:
*CO/CTO* You probably saw the way AQilla was a bit ago?

Host CO_TPaula says:
*XO*: Yes...

Host CTO_Selan says:
::Nods:: *XO* Yes, Commander.

TO_Nmbarri says:
::looks at those present and begs them to step in now and end it::

FCO_Vince says:
TO:  You'd better get to sickbay.  We'll take care of Zach

CMO_Garta says:
::jumps back in the ring and applies a sedative to Bauer.

Host XO_VanSickle says:
*CO/CTO* She received a message from Starfleet Command.  It seems Russ is missing.  She didn't say whether anyone else on his ship was as well.

CMO_Garta says:
*Medical team* Now.

Host CTO_Selan says:
::Had heard some mention of the Cherokee, nods:: *XO* I see.

CMO_Garta says:
Medical team runs in with two stretchers.  Loads Nmbarri on one and Bauer on the other.

TO_Nmbarri says:
ALL: Let it be known, I have truly dishonored this man in the past, but he deserves, and will get, nothing but respect from me from now on.

FCO_Vince says:
::stands in front of TO::TO:  Well fought.  There is honor here today.

Host XO_VanSickle says:
*CTO* Have you heard anything about the Cherokee, Selan?

TO_Nmbarri says:
FCO: Yes, there is, but the honor is with the CNS, not with me.

FCO_Vince says:
TO:  Qapla!

Host CTO_Selan says:
*XO* I heard that something had happened to ship. No details, sir.

CMO_Garta says:
::Leaves Sickbay with her team:: FCO: Care to join us?

TO_Nmbarri says:
CMO: I dont need a stretcher, i can walk on my own.

Host XO_VanSickle says:
*CTO* That must be what happened to Mr. Horn.  If... ::trails off::

FCO_Vince says:
TO:  Very true.  Indeed, there are more warrior here today ::gesturing to his sash::

CMO_Garta says:
::reaches up lovingly to Nmbarri's neck and hits him with a hypo instead:: Medic: Put him on the stretcher.
