Mission Summary coming up... all chatter to OOC

Host Kaliosha says:
Mission Summary:

Host Kaliosha says:
Previously on the Scorpius:  During the court martial of Captain VanSickle cloaked beings were discovered.  Once back on duty, the crew of the Scorpius was given orders to further the investigation into the presence of these beings on Earth.  The frequency of their cloaking devices was discovered, so Starfleet Command has been able to begin tracking them, as is the Scorpius now that the frequency has been released to them.

Host Kaliosha says:
Away teams are on the surface having rendezvoused at the mountain cabin of the MacDonald family.  It has been decided that the cabin will serve as a base for the away teams while the investigation takes place.

Host Kaliosha says:
ACTION: Commander Horn feels a sharp pain in her abdomen as she works setting up the equipment.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::materializes outside the cabin, medical gear in hand::

OPS-Anari says:
:: Senses the XO's pain... ::

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::grabs her belly:: Self:  OW!

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CMO: ::sees her materialize:: Doctor, nice of you to join us...

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::walks over to the CO to let him know that the equipment is all set and working properly::

OPS-Anari says:
:: Moves to the XO ::   XO:  Ma'am...are you all right?

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CMO: ... and just in time.  Something might be wrong with AQilla.

CSO_Turnbull says:
::looks up at the XO:: XO:  Commander?

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::enters the cabin and looks around::

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::nods:: OPS:  I think so ...

CSO_Turnbull says:
::draws and firmly grips a hidden phaser::

OPS-Anari says:
:: Places an arm around the XO ::  XO:  Please, ma'am...sit down

Host CO_VanSickle says:
XO: AQilla, is it time?

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
XO: Cmdr.?  Let's have a seat. ::moves to AQilla's side::

FCO_Vince says:
::finishes bringing some supplies from the shuttlecraft, then secures the shuttle::

CSO_Turnbull says:
::uses his Vulcan hearing to discern unusual sounds and snaps open his tricorder::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::sneezes as he approaches the CO:: CO: Sir, the equipment is all set up, who do you want to man it?  

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CO:  No, Sir.  I'm not due for another 4 weeks

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::pulls out a tricorder::

Host Kaliosha says:
ACTION: A rustling is heard in the bushes outside and Anari sees the cabin as if looking at it from that position.

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::sits down::

OPS-Anari says:
:: Senses something and is alarmed... ::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CTO: I'll take care of that.

CSO_Turnbull says:
ALL:  Silence...I hear something outside...

FCO_Vince says:
::ducks down and listens::

CSO_Turnbull says:
~~~~OPS:  Where is it, E'Laina?~~~

OPS-Anari says:
:: Closes her eyes to concentrate ::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::standing next to the CO....sneezes again::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
XO: Second pregnancies are notorious for early deliveries.  ::scans the XO with her tricorder::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
::sits quietly::

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CMO:  Great time for it.

OPS-Anari says:
~~~ CSO:  Outside...trying to get a location ... ~~~

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CTO: Allergies?

CSO_Turnbull says:
::scans the area with his tricorder and dials his phaser to heavy stun::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CMO: Only when I get close to the CO.

FCO_Vince says:
::looking through the brush toward the general area where he thinks he heard the sound::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CMO: I have a cat.

Host Kaliosha says:
ACTION: The mental image that Anari is receiving changes as she sees the cabin from above, and the view continues from above as it changes from the cabin to the treetops, and on to a body of water near waterfalls.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::sees cat hair all over the back of the CO's uniform::

CSO_Turnbull says:
::creeps to a window and keeps a low profile with phaser ready, trying to guess range::

OPS-Anari says:
:: Trying to understand the images she is receiving ::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::feels another sneeze coming on, turns and walks away quickly....the sneeze goes away::

OPS-Anari says:
:: Quietly to self ::    Self:  Water...

FCO_Vince says:
::checking the wind, and trying to find a scent::

Host Kaliosha says:
ACTION: Another spasm hits Commander Horn and she finds herself nearly doubled over with the pain.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
OPS: Thirsty?

CSO_Turnbull says:
CO:  If I have a clear shot, am I authorized to take it?

OPS-Anari says:
:: Moves out of the cabin... ::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CSO: Yes, but set to stun only!

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::doubles over in agony::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
XO: Take a deep breath.  ::looks around for a bed::

OPS-Anari says:
:: Feels the pain of the XO, but focuses on the image in her mind... ::

FCO_Vince says:
::moving slowly toward the sound::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CMO: McDonald said there's some cots in the bedroom closet.

CSO_Turnbull says:
CO:  ::whispers:: Aye, sir.  ::Fires out the kitchen window after dialing down to normal stun::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::goes to the scanning equipment and checks the readings::

Host Kaliosha says:
ACTION: The image Anari sees changes as she sees Commander VanSickle through the kitchen window.

OPS-Anari says:
:: Stands on the porch outside with her eyes closed in concentration ::

FCO_Vince says:
::freezes when the phaser blast comes out of the cabin::

CSO_Turnbull says:
::unlatches the kitchen window and rolls through it silently, phaser at the ready::

OPS-Anari says:
Self:  I don't understand...

FCO_Vince says:
::looks to see if it hits::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
XO: Come on, let's get you to the bed.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
OPS: Anari?

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::helps AQilla get up and heads to the bedroom::

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::is in no condition to argue so goes with the CMO::

Host Kaliosha says:
ACTION:  Anari now sees the CTO at the window.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: You'll need to go on without her for a while.

FCO_Vince says:
::sees Anari in a trance::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CMO: Understood, doc.

FCO_Vince says:
~~~OPS:  E'Laina, are you okay?~~~

OPS-Anari says:
:: Tilts her head in confusion ::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
OPS: E'laina?  What's happening?

OPS-Anari says:
~~~ FCO:  I see the CO at the window... ~~~

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CMO:  Is this what I think it is ...

FCO_Vince says:
~~~OPS:  Where?  I don't see him~~~

CSO_Turnbull says:
::fires again at where the signal is coming from, wide-beam::

FCO_Vince says:
::ducks to avoid the wide beam::

OPS-Anari says:
:: Furrows brow ::

Host Kaliosha says:
ACTION: Anari senses fear just before the image disappears from her mind::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
XO: It looks that way, but since we're a month ahead of schedule, I want to do a full check on the baby.  I need to make sure the next Horn is ready to enter the world.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
All: Looks like we're going to have to reorganize our teams?

FCO_Vince says:
::listens for the sound of a body falling::

OPS-Anari says:
:: Takes in a deep breath as if in fear... ::

CIV_Horn says:
::Looking for any type of tracks::

OPS-Anari says:
~~~ FCO:  I don't see anything...now ~~~

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::helps AQilla lie down on the bed::

CSO_Turnbull says:
FCO:  Over here!  I think I hit something...but it's that cloak...

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
XO: Just rest.  Why don't you close your eyes and try to relax.  I'll go get your husband.

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::lies down on her side::

FCO_Vince says:
::moves quickly toward the CSO::

CIV_Horn says:
OPS: Anari, what do you feel?

CSO_Turnbull says:
::uses the tricorder to verify the sound of even breathing::

FCO_Vince says:
CSO:  Was it one of them?

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: Sir, I am getting a signal from directly outside the kitchen window.

Host Kaliosha says:
ACTION: CIV Horn locates a large birdlike track near the cabin window.

OPS-Anari says:
CIV:  Nothing now...

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::walks past the CO and sneezes::

OPS-Anari says:
:: Moves to where the FCO and CSO are ::

CIV_Horn says:
CSO: Over here!

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Looks at the CMO:: CMO: Allergies?

CSO_Turnbull says:
FCO:  I think so.  I hear breathing over...here.  ::reaches out his hand to where he hears breathing::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CTO: Never been allergic to cats before.  I guess we'll see.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
::thinks having a cat may be a bad idea::

OPS-Anari says:
CSO/FCO:  Someone was here

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::heads out the door, searching for the CIV::

CSO_Turnbull says:
FCO:  Go help Commander Horn!  I got this!

Host Kaliosha says:
ACTION: Anari senses confusion and fear as the mental image returns, this time of the treetops as if the other being is returning.

CIV_Horn says:
::Starts to follow the tracks::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
::goes to CIV's position::

FCO_Vince says:
::moves to the CIV::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CIV: Russ!  Wait!

OPS-Anari says:
~~~ CSO:  S'Toran...I'm getting a sense of confusion and fear.  I see treetops... ::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CIV: Mr. Horn!

CIV_Horn says:
CO: They are still here.

FCO_Vince says:
::sees the tracks, and takes off after CIV::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
All: We'd better split up.

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::tries to rest but is extremely uncomfortable::

CSO_Turnbull says:
::ducks at the warning of the OPS officer::  CO:  I think they are avians!

CIV_Horn says:
CMO: Yes Jenise.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CIV: You may want to keep that comm. badge active.  Your wife may be going into labor.

CIV_Horn says:
CMO: Acknowledged.

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::feels another pain::

Host Kaliosha says:
ACTION:  The view swoops down at the away team and the team feels a rush of cool breeze as it does.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CIV: You take Anari and Vince and go north.  CSO: S'Toran, you take T'Lok and head south.

CSO_Turnbull says:
ALL:  This one has feathers.  ::starts groping for controls or belts, and then tries to disrupt the cloak frequency with his tricorder::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::heads back into the cabin as quickly as possible::

CSO_Turnbull says:
CO:  I have one here!

OPS-Anari says:
:: Feels a rush of cool breeze ::

CSO_Turnbull says:
::hears wind and ducks away::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CSO: Take T'Lok and follow it.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
XO: How are we doing? ::scans again::

CIV_Horn says:
CO: All the fresh tracks are leading to here but none are leading away except to the closest trees.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CSO: Sir, my tricorder is registering something that just flew over the top of us.

Host Kaliosha says:
ACTION: Turnbull is able to locate the belt and disable the cloaking device to reveal a large being covered with black feathers

CSO_Turnbull says:
CO:  No!  I mean right here on the ground!  I hit it with a phaser.

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CMO:  Oh wonderful ...

OPS-Anari says:
:: Thinks of images of friendship ::

FCO_Vince says:
CIV:  If these are bird-like beings, they probably are at their best in the trees

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CIV: Follow the other one.

CSO_Turnbull says:
::gathers up the large bird::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::takes AQilla's hand:: XO: You'll make it.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CIV: Take Anari and Vince with you.

CSO_Turnbull says:
FCO:  I'd hate to try to keep up with them in a shuttle.

CIV_Horn says:
CO: Yes sir.

OPS-Anari says:
:: Opens her eyes and nods to the CO ::

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::grins:: CMO:  I've been through all this before ...

FCO_Vince says:
::walking back toward the group::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::grows serious:: XO: AQilla, the baby hasn't turned yet.  That poses some decisions for us to make.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CSO: Let's take this one inside.

FCO_Vince says:
CSO:  I don't think even I'm that good

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CMO:  What do you mean ... hasn't turned?

CSO_Turnbull says:
CO:  Aye sir.  ::carries the bird inside and then sets up a containment field around it::

FCO_Vince says:
::sees the alien, and looks at it curiously::

Host Kaliosha says:
ACTION: Anari sees the team picking up the birdman and moving toward the cabin as if from a perch above the cabin's main door

CIV_Horn says:
OPS: keep your senses wide open, if they are in the trees its very likely they can fly and by the time we reach the end of the tracks they could be behind us.

OPS-Anari says:
:: Sees the activity as if watching from the treetops ::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
::follows CSO and CTO inside::

FCO_Vince says:
::still keeping his senses peeled::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CMO: Doc, you have another patient!

CSO_Turnbull says:
CO:  I've set up a level 4 containment field to confine it in this corner, but I'd proceed first with an apology.  This creature has had ample opportunity to attack.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
XO: The baby should be head down in order to be born.  Right now, the baby's bottom is down.

OPS-Anari says:
:: Moves to the doorway and stops looking up ::

OPS-Anari says:
:: Sends images of friendship ::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CSO: Good idea.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: Be right there Sir.

CSO_Turnbull says:
::dials up the universal translator and hopes this is a typical avian species::

Host Kaliosha says:
ACTION: The team hears a loud squawk as the second being appears directly in front of Turnbull... turning its head from its companion to Anari.  Anari senses confusion.

FCO_Vince says:
::continues walking toward the cabin with the others::

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CMO:  So what are the options?  ::curls up as another pain hits her::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
::sees the second bird creature::

FCO_Vince says:
Watch Out!  ::rushes the birdman::

OPS-Anari says:
CSO:  He's confused

CSO_Turnbull says:
::raises hands and backs away quickly::  Bird:  We mean no harm.

CSO_Turnbull says:
FCO:  Belay that!

OPS-Anari says:
:: Sends images of friendship to the birdman ::

OPS-Anari says:
:: Moves over to the CSO ::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
Birdman: Welcome to Earth.  My name is Eric, Cmdr. Eric VanSickle. I'm the leader of this group.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
XO: Well, we can let things progress the way they are, I can try to turn the baby once labor goes a bit further, I can do a C-section, or I can administer some drugs that will stop labor all together.

CSO_Turnbull says:
::jumps to move the bird out of Vince’s way::

CIV_Horn says:
::Pulls out a universal translator::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
XO: Just think about it.  I'll be right back.

FCO_Vince says:
::lands on the ground with a THUD::

Host Kaliosha says:
::squints at the one making noise and turns to the one who speaks... sends an image of fear and confusion to Anari::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::goes to the CO:: CO: Injury Sir?

FCO_Vince says:
CO:  Forgive me, Sir.  It was a reflex

OPS-Anari says:
All:  Please...back away from him...he's frightened

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CMO: Doc, tend to the birdman in the corner there, while I try to reason with his companion.

OPS-Anari says:
:: Continues to send images of friendship to the birdman... ::

FCO_Vince says:
::stands and steps back::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
::holds his hands out in front of him, hip level, palms up:: Birdman: We are friends.

OPS-Anari says:
:: Moves slowly towards the birdman ::

CSO_Turnbull says:
::continues to back away::  CO:  perhaps we should allow this one to tend to the other.  If we dismantled the containment field...

OPS-Anari says:
CO:  Sir, he doesn't understand...

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: Ay......ay.....::sneezes hard all over Eric:: Aye Sir.  Sorry Sir.

CSO_Turnbull says:
~~~~OPS:  Can you get permission for me to meld with one of them?~~~~

OPS-Anari says:
:: Continues to send images of friendship to the birdman ::

FCO_Vince says:
CO:  Isn't the UT working?

Host Kaliosha says:
::nods to Anari and reaches out toward his companion... looking at her with concern... squawks again as he sees his companion inside::

OPS-Anari says:
~~~ CSO:  I can try... ~~~

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CIV: Is that UT working at all?

OPS-Anari says:
All:  He wants to go to his companion.  Please...allow him to go to his companion

Host Kaliosha says:
ACTION:  The universal translator is unable to decipher the brief squawks.

CIV_Horn says:
CO: I am trying. It is working on it.

CSO_Turnbull says:
ALL:  This may be a telepath...but only able to communicate with other telepaths.  Lieutenant Anari is already in contact, I believe.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
::starts to wipe himself down:: CSO: Lower the containment field.

FCO_Vince says:
CO:  Their language must be too peculiar for the UT

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::offers the CO a cloth, then moves to the bird-man::

OPS-Anari says:
:: Begins to send images to the birdman to go and help his companion ::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CMO: Thanks.

CSO_Turnbull says:
CO:  Aye Captain.  ::moves slowly and lowers the field::

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::moans as another pain hits her::

CSO_Turnbull says:
OPS:  Perhaps if you explained that I can only speak if I'm touching them.

OPS-Anari says:
:: Moves with the birdman, moving closer to him while sending images of friendship to him ::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
OPS: E'Laina, can you try to ask them why they are so curious with humanity, and why they are cloaking themselves?

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::walks past the CO towards the unconscious being, wanting to make sure that this isn’t an escape plan....sneezes as he goes past the CO::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
*CIV*: Your wife may need you Russ.  She's starting to hurt.

OPS-Anari says:
CSO/CO:  I'll try sirs.  They use imagery to communicate

OPS-Anari says:
CSO/CO:  It could take some time

Host CO_VanSickle says:
::thinks he needs to give Sammy a bath when he gets home::

CSO_Turnbull says:
CO:  I may be able to speak directly if I can gain permission for mind meld, captain.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CTO: Here. ::hands him a tricorder:: Scan him while I give AQilla a painkiller.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::takes the Tricorder and scans the being::

OPS-Anari says:
:: Watches the birdman and begins to send images of S'Toran communicating through his hands... ::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CSO: If Anari says the birdman will allow you to do it, go ahead.

CIV_Horn says:
CO: Permission to go inside?

OPS-Anari says:
:: Begins to send images of S'Toran placing his hands on the birdman's head to communicate with them ::

CSO_Turnbull says:
::advances to a respectful distance and raises his hands, palms forward and fingers spread::

Host Kaliosha says:
::moves toward his companion and strokes his feathers ... indicates that he understands friendship and is more at ease with them... agrees with the man's touch::

Host Kaliosha says:
::reaches toward the CSO to indicate his willingness to communicate::

OPS-Anari says:
:: Sends images of thanks ::   ~~~ CSO:  He will permit your mind-meld ~~~

CSO_Turnbull says:
::moves slowly forward and lays his hand on the birdman's face gently::

OPS-Anari says:
:: Removes her gloves and timidly places a hand on the birdman's shoulder ::

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::Feels another pain .. less intense this time::

OPS-Anari says:
:: Sending images of friendship to the birdman of herself and S'Toran as well as the others from the ship ::

CSO_Turnbull says:
::begins to meld with the avian::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CSO/OPS: Don't give him too much.

CSO_Turnbull says:
::hears the CO and understands but remains silent::

OPS-Anari says:
CO: Sir, right now he's calm...I'm giving him images of friendship

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CSO/OPS: Still, be careful.  No doubt he hasn't experienced a mind meld.

OPS-Anari says:
:: Continues to send images of friendship to the birdman while in a mind-meld with S'Toran ::

CSO_Turnbull says:
::feels his mind becoming one with...Kaliosha...::

Host Kaliosha says:
ACTION: As the meld takes place, the CSO as well as OPS see images of the beings home world.  A planet much like Earth with huge trees where they build their homes made of broken branches.

CSO_Turnbull says:
::joy at the liberty of flight::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
OPS: Can S'Toran translate the alien's thought patterns?

OPS-Anari says:
All:  Their home world is much like Earth...with huge trees where they build their homes made of broken branches...

Host Kaliosha says:
ACTION:  They see further how the people began to grow in knowledge and build large cities within the trees, mine metals and begin creating machines, and eventually machines that took them into the stars.

OPS-Anari says:
CO:  I can while they are in a mind-meld

Host CO_VanSickle says:
OPS: Are they more like nests or houses?

OPS-Anari says:
:: Frowns at the turn of images... ::

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::gets up and comes out to see what is going on::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
::sees XO enter:: XO: Are you OK?

CSO_Turnbull says:
~~~Kaliosha:  I apologize.  I thought you to be an aggressor because of your concealment.  I see you are an explorer like we are.~~~~

OPS-Anari says:
CO:  The non-flyers began to grow in knowledge and build large cities within the trees...mine metals and began creating machines...machines that took them to the stars...

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::nods::

FCO_Vince says:
::continues to move the supplies he had started to, keeping his eyes open while around the cabin, but not so 'on alert' this time::

Host Kaliosha says:
::thinks of how they were attacked and harmed as they began to explore the stars and how they became afraid when they met new beings::

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CO:  Who are they?

OPS-Anari says:
CO:  The nests, in which they live, are more like houses

Host CO_VanSickle says:
XO: Some kind of avians from an Earth-like planet.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
OPS/CSO: What do they call themselves, their species?

OPS-Anari says:
CO: They were attacked and harmed as the non-flyers explored the stars

Host Kaliosha says:
~~~CSO:  Ex... ex.. pa.. plore...  ~~~  ::nods, understanding what is meant::

CSO_Turnbull says:
~~~~::recounts history of the Federation, its diplomacy, its principles and its defense-based ideals::~~~~

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::feels another cramp-like pain and holds her belly::

OPS-Anari says:
:: Senses what S'Toran is sending the birdman... ::

CSO_Turnbull says:
~~~~::reiterates the prime directive and how all here are sworn to uphold it with their lives::~~~~

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CIV: Russ, get on the horn with Federation HQ in Paris.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CIV:  Tell them we may have a possible new relationship.

Host Kaliosha says:
::eyes brighten as he sees the images from S'Toran, nodding quickly letting it be known that is what they seek, peace, exploration, knowledge.::

OPS-Anari says:
:: Sends images of Starfleet officer's in hiding watching other races and species... ::

CSO_Turnbull says:
~~~~::offers to act as a liaison between the Federation and the Flyers for an opening of dialog::~~~~

OPS-Anari says:
:: Smiles ::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
XO: Do you need something for the pain?

OPS-Anari says:
:: Sends images of Starfleet officers meeting with new races, new species and making friends with them ::

CSO_Turnbull says:
~~~~::smiles and sends the emotions of warmth and friendship, with another apology and good will::~~~~

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CMO:  I don't know ... it's not as intense as before.  More like cramping now.

Host Kaliosha says:
~~~::signals his agreement and tries to show his name Kaliosha of the Maraibos::~~~

CIV_Horn says:
::Heads for the Comm station::

OPS-Anari says:
:: Sends images of friendship to strengthen S'Toran’s images ::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::pulls another tricorder out and scans::

CSO_Turnbull says:
~~~Kaliosha:  Kaliosha of the Maraibos, I am Commander S'Toran Turnbull of the United Federation of Planets.  Welcome to Earth.~~~~

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
XO: The contractions are lighter.  It may be false labor after all.

CIV_Horn says:
COM: SFHQ: Starfleet come in this is Lt Cmdr Horn.

OPS-Anari says:
:: Smiles at the exchange between the Kaliosha and S'Toran ::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
::hears comm:: CIV: I said Federation HQ, not Starfleet.

Host Kaliosha says:
::sends images of what they have seen so far on Earth, the buildings, the people, the unity that most share... seeing these people at the court martial and understanding a sense of justice::

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CMO:  So this little one isn't quite ready to be born yet ...

CIV_Horn says:
CO: My mistake.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
OPS: What is our guest saying?

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
XO: Nope, that baby will come when that baby is ready. ::smiles and moves back to the bird-man::

OPS-Anari says:
CO:  They are sending images of what they've seen so far...they have an understanding of justice...

Host Kaliosha says:
::sends images of gratitude then turns toward his companion again... concerned about him::

CSO_Turnbull says:
~~~~Kaliosha:  Can we have you work with our linguist to attempt a translation of your thought patterns for a better dialog?~~~~

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::smiles and moves over to the CO's side::

CIV_Horn says:
COM: FH:  Federation headquarters, come in please.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
OPS: Who are they, anyway?

Host Kaliosha says:
<Fed. HQ>  COM: We're receiving your transmission, Commander.  How can we assist you?

CSO_Turnbull says:
~~~~::continues to exchange dialog and friendship with Kaliosha::~~~~

OPS-Anari says:
CO:  They are Maraibos...this one is known as Kaliosha of the Maraibos

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::takes the tricorder back from her husband and reads it carefully:: CTO: He move at all?

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: Not really, nothing out of the normal that is, breathing mostly.

OPS-Anari says:
:: Removes her hand from Kaliosha and goes to the companion ::

OPS-Anari says:
CO:  I believe they want to join the Federation

Host Kaliosha says:
~~~::agrees to try to learn to communicate and work with others to do so~~~ ::strokes his companion trying to wake him up::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::reads the scans::

OPS-Anari says:
:: Places her ungloved hand to the unconscious companion ::

FCO_Vince says:
::walks back up to the cabin, and leans against the doorway, looking on::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CSO: S'Toran, inform Kaliosha that we would welcome them into the Federation, and we are currently in contact with the council about an audience.

CSO_Turnbull says:
~~~~::tells Kaliosha about the phaser effects and how they should not last long::~~~~

CIV_Horn says:
COM: FH: We have established contact.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::sneezes::

OPS-Anari says:
:: Begins stroking the unconscious Maraibos ::

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::looks at the CMO::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::walks back towards the unconscious being, sneezes as he goes past the CO::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CTO: Alright, so who shot him?  He's fine except for a stun.

CSO_Turnbull says:
~~~~Kaliosha:  My commanding officer is at present in contact with our Federation headquarters, and they are waiting there to welcome you and your people to the Federation with spread-wide wings.~~~~

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CIV: You have Federation HQ?

CIV_Horn says:
CO: Yes sir.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CMO: Not sure Ma'am ::smiles:: all I know is that a wide beam phaser shot came flying past me.

Host Kaliosha says:
<Fed. HQ> COM: CIV: You are referring to the search project you were assigned to?  Are these beings, whatever they are, hostile?

OPS-Anari says:
:: Still stroking the unconscious Maraibos hoping to help him ::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::groans, then turns to scan her husband::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CIV: Ask the council to arrange a meeting with Kaliosha and his companion, and make sure they have a full Betazoid interpreter available..

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CMO: Why are you scanning me?

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CTO: I want to see what that sneezing is all about.  I may be able to give you something for it.

CIV_Horn says:
COM: FH: Negative, they are friendlies, and we would like to arrange for an official visit with them to HQ. We will need a full Betazoid to interpret.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CIV: Inform the Federation Council they are known as Maraibos.

CSO_Turnbull says:
~~~~Kaliosha:  With my Captain's permission, I would like to accompany you and attempt to get our translator device to pick up on your thoughts so we can communicate more effectively.~~~~

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CMO: It must be his cat ::points to the CO:: perhaps I should bring a targ on board.....::grins evilly::

CIV_Horn says:
CO: I am getting to it.

OPS-Anari says:
:: Sending images to the unconscious companion of friendship, warmth, and love ::

Host Kaliosha says:
<Fed.HQ> COM: CIV: Understood, we'll have a team ready to meet you.  Transport the beings here.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CTO: Make sure that targ likes cats as friends and not food.

CIV_Horn says:
COM: FH: Acknowledged.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CTO: Oh no.  I already clean up after you and Smurf.  I'm not cleaning up after a pet.

CIV_Horn says:
CO: Hear that.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: Just kidding, sir.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::moves to her med kit and takes out a hypo:: CTO: Here.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CMO: Just think, with a targ around, we wont have to clean up leftovers.

OPS-Anari says:
:: Takes her other glove off and places that one back on the shoulder of Kaliosha ::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CIV: Affirmative.  Tell the council we'll fly them over as soon as the unconscious one is recovered.

Host Kaliosha says:
~~~CSO: Yes, good, friends~~~ ::sends images of understanding and agreement::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::presses the hypo into his neck:: CTO: That's an antihistamine.  It should help with the sneezing. ::sneezes again::

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::can't help but hear the CMO sneeze::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CMO: Perhaps you should give yourself a hypo?

OPS-Anari says:
:: Continues to stroke the unconscious companion while also sending images of help and assistance to Kaliosha ::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CMO: Are you allergic, or pregnant?

CSO_Turnbull says:
~~~~Kaliosha:  I will close this link we have for now.  As you wish it, we shall open it again for now.  I must report to my superior officer.~~~~

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CTO: Follow me please. ::moves past the group and outside of the cabin::

Host Kaliosha says:
ACTION: The second Maraibos stirs and slowly opens his eyes.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::hears the comment from the CO, whips around and looks at his wife::

Host Kaliosha says:
::nods as the link is severed and turns to help his friend::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CMO: Where are we going?

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CSO: What do you think, S'Toran?

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::ignores the Captain and exits the cabin::

OPS-Anari says:
:: Still stroking the unconscious companion ::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::follows his wife::

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::moves over to her husband::

CSO_Turnbull says:
CO:  Sir, they are explorers as we are.  it is not so dissimilar to the blinds we have set up on many pre-warp worlds to monitor their progress.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::scans herself and hands the tricorder to her husband::

OPS-Anari says:
~~~ CSO:  I don't seem to be able to help this species... ~~~

Host Kaliosha says:
ACTION: The second Maraibo slowly sits up with the help of Kaliosha and Anari.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CSO: Why were they wanting to study us?

OPS-Anari says:
:: Sends images of warm and friendship to the recovering Maraibo ::

CSO_Turnbull says:
CO:  I think I may have an idea about the translators.  They are pure telepaths, communicating mostly in imagery, but the translator still could pick up on the same brainwave patterns with enough exposure.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::takes the tricorder from the CMO, looks at it, and lets out one huge hooting yell::

CSO_Turnbull says:
CO:  I think it was to gain knowledge.  I sensed no hostility or ill will.

OPS-Anari says:
:: Sending images of assistance to the recovering Maraibos ::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CSO: I've arranged a meeting with these two and the Federation Council, with a Betazoid translator.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CTO: You see?  There isn't a hypo for what I have.

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::hears the growl and grins::

Host Kaliosha says:
::jumps with fright as he hears the CTO's yell and holds his companion closely to protect him::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::grabs the CMO in his arms and swings her around in a loving hug::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
::hears the hooting outside and turns to the doorway:: CMO: Was I right?

OPS-Anari says:
:: Looks at both Maraibos and smiles ::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::laughs at being swung around::

CSO_Turnbull says:
CO:  Sir, with your permission, I would like to escort them personally.  I sense a real kindred spirit in Kaliosha, if I may put it that way.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::sets the CMO down and looks at the tricorder again:: CMO: Six weeks along.  we got a long way to go yet my dear.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: Yes sir.

OPS-Anari says:
:: Senses joy from the CTO ::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CSO: We'll take you all there.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CTO: 4 1/2 months left. ::grins::

FCO_Vince says:
CTO:  What is it?

OPS-Anari says:
:: Smiles again at both Maraibos and begins to send images of children and babies ::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CMO/CTO: Congratulations.  Pel Tor's going to enjoy a little sibling.

CIV_Horn says:
XO: You gonna be ok?

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::looks at the FCO:: FCO: We are pregnant!

CSO_Turnbull says:
::hears the CTO::  Congratulations, Lieutenant!

Host Kaliosha says:
::nods understanding and settles down... begins telling his companion all that has happened::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CTO: Now, we should get back to our....um....diplomacy?  ::points to the bird-men::

FCO_Vince says:
::looking at the CTO and CMO::  CTO:  Really?  Awesome!  ::moves to give CTO a high-five::

OPS-Anari says:
:: Removes her hands from the Maraibos and replaces her gloves ::

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CIV:  Yeah ... Doc says it was a false alarm.  It seems our son wasn't quite ready to be born yet.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
All: OK, everyone man your shuttles!  Next stop, Paris!

Pel-Tor says:
::sits at his desk, doing homework.  Suddenly jumps up as if someone yelled in his ears.... then smiles and sits back down::

CSO_Turnbull says:
CO:  I am bringing the first revision of this translator online...  ::hits a few controls::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::high fives the FCO::

CIV_Horn says:
XO: Our Son?

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::nods and grins at him::

OPS-Anari says:
CO:  I would like to ride with our guests, if I may

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: And what shuttle would that be Sir.  You all forgot me and I had to transport remember? ::laughs::

FCO_Vince says:
::runs outside to get the shuttles ready for launch::

CIV_Horn says:
XO: Our Son!!!

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CMO: Shouldn’t you be in bed, shouldn’t you be more careful, maybe you are over working yourself, can I get you anything?

Host CO_VanSickle says:
OPS: Granted.

OPS-Anari says:
:: Sends images of leaving this place to the Maraibos ::

OPS-Anari says:
CO:  Thank you, sir.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CTO: I'm fine and if you don't relax, you'll be the one getting the sedative.

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CIV:  I wanted to surprise you ... that seemed like a good time.

CIV_Horn says:
::Picks his wife in a hug a spins her around::

OPS-Anari says:
:: Sends images of leaving the place in the vehicles they came in to the Maraibos ::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CTO: I think I'll ride with you if it's alright?

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::takes his wife by the hand and goes back inside the cabin::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CMO: You are to be in the same shuttle as the Maraibos.  Look after the one S'Toran stunned to make sure he doesn't have any complications.

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::laughs as she is spun around::

Host Kaliosha says:
ACTION: An incoming communiqué is received from Starfleet Command, directed to the CO and CSO.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: Aye sir.

OPS-Anari says:
CO/CMO:  He'll be fine, sirs

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CMO: Most definitely alright.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
::hears the comm, goes to the station:: CSO: There's a communiqué for you, S'Toran.

CIV_Horn says:
::Sets his wife down and kisses her::

CSO_Turnbull says:
::hears the beep on the communications array::  CO:  Incoming transmission, sir.

Host Kaliosha says:

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::kisses him back:: CIV:  Now you know

FCO_Vince says:
::walks around the two shuttles::

CSO_Turnbull says:
::reads the transmission as his heart sinks::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CSO: Well, looks like you're going to be on your way.

OPS-Anari says:
:: Sense something strange from the CSO ::   ~~~ CSO:  Are things alright? ~~~

CSO_Turnbull says:
CO:  Apparently.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
Crew: Atten-HUT!

OPS-Anari says:
:: Moves with the Maraibos to the shuttles ::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::hears the CO and stands at attention::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::stands at attention beside her husband::

Host XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::stands to attn next to her husband::

CIV_Horn says:
::looks around:: All: Huh?

OPS-Anari says:
:: Hears the CO and sends images of pausing to the Maraibos ::

CIV_Horn says:
::At attention in the woods in the middle of nowhere::

CSO_Turnbull says:
::stands still and quiet::  ~~~~OPS:  I've been reassigned to the USS Paula Greene.~~~~

Host CO_VanSickle says:
All: It seems Cmdr. Turnbull will be leaving us for the USS Paula Greene.  Starfleet has ordered him to take over her CTO's position.  Please join me in wishing him well and bidding him farewell.
