"To Catch a Thief..."

Host Gerry says:
Episode Two:  "No Honor Among Thieves..."

Host Gerry says:
Previously on the USS Scorpius:

Host Gerry says:
The Scorpius had been visited by an anxious Admiral Taylor trying to hide an officer wanted for capital murder by the Romulans.

Host Gerry says:
Said officer was assigned to the Scorpius as a Civilian Specialist.

Host Gerry says:
She is being kept out of sight for the time being.

Host Gerry says:
The Romulan Vessel Falconwrath is escorting the Scorpius to the staging area for the joint Romulan-Federation task Force to begin the hunt for the pirate syndicate operating in Romulan Space.

Host Gerry says:
The Scorpius is now 30 minutes from that Rendezvous.

Host Gerry says:
The CO and CEO are recovered sufficiently to return to light duty if the CMO sees fit.

@::on transporter pad of a Romulan Transport, waiting for clearance to beam over to the Scorpius::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: I will let you go, if you promise light, and I MEAN LIGHT duty.  Sit in your chair, look important, the slightest bit of stress and you are done hear me?

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
@Self: it will be good to be with my family and friends again.  Wait till they all hear my news!

FCO_Lane says:
XO: We have a Romulan shuttle on sensors, 5 minutes out and closing at high warp.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CMO: So, you've turned me into a figurehead.

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
FCO:  Hail them, Lt.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: Better than a god.  Do you want Cori to escort you or are you okay on your own?

XO_AQilla_Horn says:

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: Just be careful.

FCO_Lane says:
XO: Commander, they say they have one of ours.  

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
FCO:  So I heard.  Find out who then prepare to beam that officer back.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
Helene: Well, nurse, you gonna show me up to the bridge?

FCO_Lane says:
COM: Romulan Shuttle: Who is the officer that you are returning to us?  ::makes preparations to receive transport::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
<Helene> CO: Of course. ::helps him from the bed::

CEO_Bodine says:
CMO: Will they both survive in our atmosphere?

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::moves to the CNS and runs a quick scan::

Host Gerry says:
@COMM:  Scorpius:  He says he's your Chief of Security.  Transporter range in 12 ticks.  Matching velocity for warp-field merge and transport...

FCO_Lane says:
COM: Romulan Shuttle: Understood, we're ready to receive him.  

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
@::readies himself for transport::

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
FCO:  Tell Cmdr Garta-Nmbarri to come directly to the bridge when he arrives.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CEO: No, they won't.  Their incubators are sealed and the atmosphere is closer to Tralfamdor.

FCO_Lane says:
::holds the Scorpius steady to the shuttle's course:: XO: Yes, ma'am.

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
*CO*:  Bridge to Captain.

CEO_Bodine says:
CMO: So they can't stay with me? :: feels a personal defeat after all he went through ::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::moves to a tray and retrieves a hypo::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
*XO*: VanSickle here.  I'm on my way up there.

CNS_McDonald says:
CMO: so what’s the verdict? what’s causing this headache?

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CEO: I was ordered to use gene enhancement to prepare them for their home world.

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
*CO*:  Good.  Cause I think we have a problem.  I need to see both you and Lt Cmdr Garta-Nmbarri immediately.

Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  Lt. Cmdr. Garta-Nmbarri beams directly to the bridge of the USS Scorpius...

Host CO_VanSickle says:
*XO*: Be there momentarily.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
Helene: Looks like we may have to throw that "light" duty out the window.

Host Gerry says:
@COMM: Scorpius: Standby for warp desync in 5 seconds...

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::feels himself materialize on the bridge of the Scorpius:: XO: Lt. Cmdr. Garta-Nmbarri reporting for duty, Ma'am.

XO_AQilla_Horn says:

FCO_Lane says:
::sees the CTO materialize on the bridge:: COM: Romulan Shuttle: We have him, thank you for the delivery.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
XO: I take it that there is a problem that needed me transported to the bridge?

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CTO:  Good to have you back.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CNS: Build up of blood in the back of you cranium.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
::enters TL:: Computer: Bridge.

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CTO: And yes, we have a problem.  I'll explain when the Captain gets here.

FCO_Lane says:
::chuckles:: CTO: Quite the entrance there, Commander.

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CTO: In the meantime, take your station.  And welcome home.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
::squeezes Helene's hand::

Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  the Romulan Shuttle warps away at high warp...

CNS_McDonald says:
CMO: mmm any ideas to the cause? Well I have been under some stress.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CNS: This should take care of it.  Just rest for a few. ::applies the hypo::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
XO: I need to send my wife a quick message, if that’s ok?

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
FCO: Would you expect anything less from me, Lt?

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CTO:  Sure.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
<Helene> CO: You heard the Doc.  Light.

FCO_Lane says:
::closes the channel and waves at the screen:: Self: Bye... bye...

CNS_McDonald says:
CMO: :: feels the hypo kick in :: Thank you..

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
*CMO* Jeni, I am back.  I just beamed onto the bridge.  You will NOT believe what I have to tell you.

FCO_Lane says:
CTO: Not exactly, no.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::smiles at the FCO::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::takes a deep breath at hearing her husband's voice:: *CTO* Welcome home.  I'll be there soon.

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::chuckles at the FCO::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
*CMO* I have missed you terribly.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CNS: Rest for a few.  They you should be fine.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
::TL doors open, Helene and I exit:: XO: What's the problem, commander?

CNS_McDonald says:
CMO: I get a sense a great relief now that T'Lok is back..

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CO:  Sir, I suggest we discuss this in your ready room.

FCO_Lane says:
::rolls her eyes as she turns her attention back to her console::  

Host CO_VanSickle says:
XO: Sure.  Cori: I guess I'll see you later?

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CEO: You are released for light duty.  No heroics.  Just go sit and order your staff around okay?

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CTO:  You're with me.  FCO:  You have the bridge.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
XO: Aye, Ma’am

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CNS: He has been on Qo'Nos.  Sick family member.

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::heads for the Ready Room::

CEO_Bodine says:
CMO: How long before the return home? can I come visit them before they leave?

FCO_Lane says:
::looks up at the XO:: XO:  If you say so, ma'am.  Understood.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::goes with the XO and CO::

CEO_Bodine says:
:: drifts in heavy thought ::

CNS_McDonald says:
CMO: Ahhh so that's where he's been. Well Go see him. I think you need it.. from one doc to another

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::enters the RR with the Padd in her hand::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CEO: At least 3 weeks, you have plenty of time. Excuse me, I am needed on the bridge. ::moves away::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
::follows the XO in and goes around the desk to his chair::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::enters the ready room behind the XO and CO, and takes a seat::

CEO_Bodine says:
:: heads to Main Engineering ::

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CTO:  You may not be aware of this, but recently we removed an explosive device from our propulsion systems.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
XO: I was not, Commander.  Did my tactical officers come up with any information on who put it there, or who designed it?

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CO/CTO: I've just received the report from Operations.  It seems the bomb was Federation Technology.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
<Helene> ::stands outside the door waiting for Eric to return to the bridge::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
XO: Federation?

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::nods:: CTO:  Definitely Federation.  It looks like someone doesn't want us to work with the Romulans.

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::hands the CTO the report::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::takes the report::

FCO_Lane says:
::sits back and looks over the readings coming in on sensors::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
XO: You mean someone from the Federation, Starfleet, or even this ship is trying to sabotage us?

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
XO: Well, it wouldn’t be the first time that there was dissention when working with the Romulans.  But sabotage?

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::leaves Pierce in charge of sickbay, grabs her kit, and heads to the turbolift::

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CO:  That is how it appears, Captain.

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CTO:  That's what we need to find out, Commander.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
XO: I assume that my security teams are already working on the situation?

CNS_McDonald says:
:: gets up after he starts to feel better and heads out of Sickbay :: CMO: Thank you. the analgesics worked

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::nods:: CTO:  I have asked tactical to conduct a full investigation.  I would like you to lead it.

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CO:  With your permission, of course, Captain.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
<Pierce> CNS: Anytime!

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::enters the lift and orders it to the bridge::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
XO: You don't need my permission.  You're still in charge.  I haven't officially re-assumed command.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
XO: Of course, Ma'am.  I have full faith in my teams.  We will find the answers.

FCO_Lane says:
::notices the vessels on sensors:: *CO/XO* There are 4 Romulan Vessels at the rendezvous point... our eta for arrival is 2 minutes.

CNS_McDonald says:
*XO* You need me up there?

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
*FCO*:  Understood.  Bring us out of warp when we arrive at the co-ords.

FCO_Lane says:
*XO* Understood.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
XO: That must be our welcome wagon.  Where is Capt. Serok right now?

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::cuts the comm:: CO/CTO:  I have a feeling our friends at Starfleet Intelligence are up to something.  This could get tricky.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::looks confused:: CO: Captain Serok?

FCO_Lane says:
::prepares to drop from warp and bring them to all stop at the rendezvous::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CTO: She's our new civilian liaison.  Russ has transferred off the ship.

FCO_Lane says:
::drops to impulse and brings the Scorpius into formation with the Romulan ships... then brings the ship to all stop::

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

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::feels sad at hearing that Russ, his mentor for so long, has transferred off the ship::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
FCO: Where did the party move to?

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CO:  She's being kept under wraps for now, Captain.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
XO: A security matter?

Host CO_VanSickle says:
XO: Good.  I don't want the Romulans snooping.

FCO_Lane says:
::hears the lift doors open and turns around to the sound of the CMO's voice... points:: CMO:  Ready room

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CTO:  You could say that.

CNS_McDonald says:
:: doesn't hear a reply so Lennier heads to the bridge ::

CNS_McDonald says:
TL: Bridge

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
XO/CO: It appears that much has transpired since I left.  I have my work cut out for me, that’s for sure.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::sees Helene:: *XO* You guys hosting a private party in there?  Or, may I check on the CO since he left his personal nurse behind?

Host CO_VanSickle says:
::looks at the sash:: CTO: Something change back on Qo'Nos?

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CO/CTO:  I suspect that once whoever planted that bomb realizes they have failed they will try again.  Be on guard.

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
*CMO*:  You can in a moment, Doctor.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: You could say that, Sir.  My grandfather, and leader of the house of K`Both has passed away.  I have assumed that role now.

CNS_McDonald says:
:: after a short trip Lennier arrives at the bridge and steps onto it looking towards the viewscreen ::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CTO: That calls for congratulations.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
XO: I count on them trying. 

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::moves over to the XO's chair and sits to wait::

CEO_Bodine says:
:: pulls out a locked container and places it on an examination table in engineering ::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: Thank you, Sir.  But, the time for celebration comes when this mystery has been solved.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
FCO: I've barely seen you since you came back to the ship.  Everything okay?

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CTO:  As do I.  If there is nothing else I suggest we adjourn to the bridge.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CTO: Right.  XO/CTO: You both coordinate on that bomb.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: If there is an answer to this, my teams will find it.

CNS_McDonald says:
:: walks down and stands beside the command deck ::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
Self: It seems two members of the medical staff are waiting for me out there.

FCO_Lane says:
CMO: Getting there.  It's just taken a bit to get over all the chaos that happened.

CEO_Bodine says:
:: enters an access code and the locked container pops open revealing the bomb once attached to the plasma conduit ::

FCO_Lane says:
CMO:  How is the little one?

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
FCO: If you need a friend, you know where to find me, okay? ::smiles::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
::gets up and heads out to the bridge::

FCO_Lane says:
::nods:: CMO: Thank you, I appreciate it.

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CTO/CO:  It's best if we don't keep the Romulans waiting ... T'Lok, use whatever resources you need to find who did this.  ::gets up::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
XO: Aye, Ma'am.

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::heads to the bridge::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::exits the ready room behind the CO and XO, and sees his wife sitting there on the bridge::

CEO_Bodine says:
Computer: Request authorization from OPS I need a containment shield 10 by 10 around my work area once the power is available bring the field online ::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
FCO: DeeDee is doing fine.  Her nanny joined on a couple of days ago so she doesn't get wagged around sickbay anymore.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CMO: Jeni, my beloved wife!

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::grins at the CMO:: CMO:  Doctor, he's all yours.  ::indicates the CO::

CNS_McDonald says:
:: nods to the CTO ::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::stands, forcing herself not to run to T'Lok's side:: CTO: T'Lok, welcome home!

Host CO_VanSickle says:
::sees Cori standing by the door and the CMO sitting in the XO's seat::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
<Helene> CO: Light!  So go sit down. ::crosses her arms::

CNS_McDonald says:
:: steps aside so the command staff can get to their chairs ::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::moves quickly to the CMO, and wraps his arms around her, even though its a brief hug::

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::sees the Warbirds::

FCO_Lane says:
::smiles:: CMO: I remember those days, little ones DeeDee's age need a nanny.  I enjoyed working for the Turnbulls on the USS Apache as a nanny.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::whispers:: CTO: We will talk soon.

Host FwCO_T`Karda says:
@FwOPS:  Hail the Federation ship.  ::distaste evident on his face::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
::salutes his girlfriend:: Helene: Yes, ma'am.  ::goes to the big chair::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
:;whispers back:: CMO: You will be shocked when I tell you the news.

CEO_Bodine says:
:: gets his scanning equipment ready and sets it them on the table ::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::straightens the sash:: CTO: The crest.  K`Both is dead?

Host FwCO_T`Karda says:
<FwOPS> @FwCO: Yes, Commander.  ::opens hailing frequencies and hails the Scorpius::

FCO_Lane says:
::sees the incoming hail:: XO: incoming transmission from the Romulans, on screen?

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
FCO:  On screen, Lt.

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::sits in her chair::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CMO: Yes.  He passed away a few days ago.  I wasn't able to get a message to you about that, or what transpired after that.

FCO_Lane says:
::taps a few buttons and puts the transmission on screen:: XO: Ready, ma'am.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::moves back toward the Tactical area, away from the screen:: CTO: It's okay.  I understand.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CMO: Does the new crest look familiar in any way to you?

Host CO_VanSickle says:
::looks up at the screen:: XO: You want me to do any talking?

Host FwCO_T`Karda says:
ACTION:  A disgusted-looking Romulan officer appears on screen.

CNS_McDonald says:
XO/CO: I sense a lot of hostility and disdain from the Romulans

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CO:  You can if you wish, Captain.

CEO_Bodine says:
:: he begins his research on the explosive device now that he has raised a safety net ::

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CNS:  I'm not surprised ...

Host CO_VanSickle says:
CNS: Thanks, Lenny.  I'll be advised.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::sees the screen go active::

FCO_Lane says:
::watches the screen as she sits at the helm.::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
COMM: T'Karda: Capt. Eric VanSickle of the USS Scorpius here.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::goes to his tactical station, and begins to order his teams to work on the mystery of the bomb::

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
<whispers> CNS:  Well, he looks friendly, doesn't he?

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::looks closely at the crest and reaches up for her marriage earring::

CNS_McDonald says:
:: sits down in the third seat of the command deck :: ::whispers back:: XO: He does but I don’t trust him.

Host FwCO_T`Karda says:
@COMM: Scorpius:  I am Commander T'Karda in Command of Falconwrath.  Our plan is very simple.  We will use your ship as bait and flush out the pirates.  Is that acceptable to you?

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::sees his wife’s reaction to the crest:: CMO: I see that you do recognize it.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
COMM: T'Karda: Wait a minute!  Bait?

CEO_Bodine says:
Computer: give me a micro scan of the device and project it with a holographic display in the center of the examination table.

FCO_Lane says:
::raises her eyebrows in surprise and thinks... is he crazy?::

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
<whispers back> CNS:  I never trust Romulans, Counselor.  I know all too well what they are like ..

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::whispers:: CTO: Yes I d...::stops at hearing the word 'bait'::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::hears the word bait, and doesn’t like the feeling it gives him::

CNS_McDonald says:
::: whispers :: XO: So Do I. I don't trust this one as far as i can chuck that warbird.

Host FwCO_T`Karda says:
@COMM: Scorpius:  CO:  Unless you also have a cloaking device, Captain.  ::smirks::  I had thought it rather obvious that you would be the choice of logic.  I'm sure your Vulcan first officer would agree.

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::raises an eyebrow at that comment::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
::chuckles:: COMM: T'Karda: I'm afraid you're mistaken about my XO's heritage.  XO: Cmdr. Horn, could you enlighten him?

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::whispers:: CTO: Vulcan?  That guy isn't even smart enough to recognize one of him own race!

CEO_Bodine says:
:: looks over the hologram of this bomb's innards ::

CNS_McDonald says:
:: smiles softly ::

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CO:  Certainly Captain.  COMM: T'Karda: I am not Vulcan.  I am half-Romulan.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::thinks "You tell him sister!"::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CMO: Shh, be careful not to start an intergalactic situation, my dear. ::smiles::

Host FwCO_T`Karda says:
@COMM: Scorpius: CO:  Or perhaps you have a better plan, Federation.  Just because our governments think this is a good idea, doesn't mean any of us do.  Your presence is not wanted, but since you're here, you may as well be useful.

FCO_Lane says:
::looks at the screen watching the Romulans reactions as they speak::

CNS_McDonald says:
:: Leans over to the CO and XO:: Can we talk privately without him on screen?

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
<in Romulan> COMM: T'Karda: You could not tell?

Host CO_VanSickle says:
::holds up a hand to silence CNS::

Host FwCO_T`Karda says:
@COMM: Scorpius: XO:  then you are an illegitimate offspring and not worthy of note or respect.  Be silent, comMANder.  ::disdain evident::

CEO_Bodine says:
Computer: run a detailed surface scan of the micro-processor tech. scan for anything that might be in our database any identifiable markings available?

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
Self: She's more honorable than you'll be any day of the week.

CNS_McDonald says:
:: nods to the CO :: and keeps his empathic abilities open ::

FCO_Lane says:
::keeps an eye on sensors and scans:: Self: This going to get nasty is someone doesn't give.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
::eyes widen:: COMM: T'Karda: Commander T'Karda, that was inappropriate!  If you expect me to work with you and your fleet, then you treat my crew... ALL of my crew... with respect.

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::watches the Romulan carefully::

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CO:  No, it's OK, Captain.  I expected that sort of reaction.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::sends a message to his security teams, telling them that he wants detailed scans of the area the bomb was found, check all visual logs of the area to see when, and how it got there, and to scan for any transporter activity in that area::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
::looks back at CMO and Helene to see if they've made any hasty reactions at his outburst::

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CO:  Now you know one of the reasons why I left the Empire all those years ago.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::catches the eye of the CO and nods an okay::

CEO_Bodine says:
:: looks o check  and see if the shield is still in place and then picks the device up and tries to look under it without changing it's pitch ::

Host FwCO_T`Karda says:
@COMM: Scorpius: CO:  I don't know what they qualify as respect in the Federation, Captain, but here in Romulan space, Respect and Honor are earned.  I speak what I know.  You want respect, you'll earn it.  Now fly your ..ship... to the coordinates I'm sending you to and assume patrol.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
::nods back, then turns back to the screen:: COMM: T'Karda: Commander, may I suggest a slight amendment to the plan?

CEO_Bodine says:
Device: everything build has a story, has a creator, a history. What do you have to tell me ? ::
FCO_Lane says:

::receives the incoming coordinates and enters them:: CO: Commander, I have the coordinates, all is ready.

Host FwCO_T`Karda says:
@COMM:  Scorpius: CO:  ::smirks:: what amendment could you POSSIBLY make to our plan, human?

Host CO_VanSickle says:
COMM: T'Karda: Oh, just making sure that this "bait" is able to bite the fish back.

CEO_Bodine says:
:: scans trying to discern what powers the device ::

FCO_Lane says:

Host FwCO_T`Karda says:
ACTION:  The five Romulan Vessels cloak

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::looks at the CO:: CO:  Well, that went well.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: Fear not, Captain.  When the time goes, this bait will certainly be able to do some biting.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
XO: I don't care what that Pa'Taq says, you are honorable AQilla.

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
FCO:  Bring up the co-ordinates, Lt.  Where exactly are they sending us.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
FCO: Set course for the coordinates given and engage at warp two.  CTO: Make sure weapons are ready to go hot on a moment's notice.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::looks at his wife, and smirks at her choice of words:: CMO: Its funny that you should be speaking in Klingon, my dear.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CTO: You rub off after awhile.

FCO_Lane says:
::closes the channel on their end and engages at warp 2:: CO: Warp 2 engaged.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CMO: There is much more to it than that, dear.

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::smiles at the CMO:: CMO:  Thanks, Doc.

CEO_Bodine says:
<Computer> CEO: The components are most likely federation in origin 

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
CO:  I, for one, would like to show up the Romulans ...

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: Captain, I will be leaving Nurse Helene here to keep an eye on you.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: All tactical systems are and will be ready at your call, sir.

Host CO_VanSickle says:
XO: I agree.  CMO: Understood.  She should let you know if something goes wrong.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CTO: Oh there's a lot more in being married to you.  Now, the crest.  It's part Bajoran.  Why?

FCO_Lane says:
XO: From the trace, we're headed for a system with a class-k planet... ::looks down again at the readout:: gas giants... and a heavy asteroid field.... they could be anywhere.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CMO: My dear, with his dying breath, my grandfather named me as leader of our house.  Consequently, it is now known as the house of Garta-Nmbarri.  

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::nods:: CO:  Sounds like a nice place for a base of operations ... and a very convenient place to hide.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CTO: You are patriarch?

FCO_Lane says:
::shakes her head:: XO: Sounds tricky

Host CO_VanSickle says:
XO: That must be the reason that nice fellow sent us there to troll for the carp.

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::smiles:: CMO: Yes, and you realize what that makes you?

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::eyes widen:: CTO: Oh no, if that means I have to wear the leather armor with the hole right between my.......nuh uh, no way.

FCO_Lane says:
::watches the course settings and maintains course::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CMO: Of course not!  You are to wear what ever makes you comfortable.  But, it also means that everyone in our house has to abide by your rules.

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
FCO:  Indeed it does.  Take as many scans as you need and plot the best course.  I'll leave that to your discretion.

CEO_Bodine says:
<Computer> CEMO: The device is mechanical for the most part but there is a 2% mass trace of a material that is organic in nature.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CTO: Ooh, so I'm the Matriarch of a bunch of Klingons...sounds like fun.  As long as I don't get hit with a pain stick, I'm happy. ::grins::

FCO_Lane says:
::nods:: XO: Understood, ma'am.  ::continues to monitor sensor readings and makes any needed adjustments::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CMO: NO, you don't have to do that.  but, you will have to preside over marriages, and other official household duties.

CEO_Bodine says:
Computer: Really? Can you triangulate the source of the organic  substance and show it in the display for me?

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CTO: Sounds like I have some learning ahead of me. ::hugs her husband:: I am so proud of you.  My husband the patriarch!

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::hugs his wife back:: CMO: I will be there for you the entire way, my wife, and Matriarch.

CEO_Bodine says:
:: watches and watches the holographic projection with great interest ::

Host CO_VanSickle says:
::looks back at CTO and CMO:: XO: You know, AQilla, I think Jenise makes a great Klingon matriarch, for a Bajoran.

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::looks back:: CO:  I concur, Captain.  Those Klingons won't know what has hit them ::grins::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: Of course, Sir, the resources of my house are always at your disposal.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::leans way back to look up at T'Lok:: CTO: Now, they do know the house has a Bajoran, Klingon/Human/Andorian/Ullian, and Klingon/Human/Bajoran in it now right?

Host CO_VanSickle says:
XO: Anyone that can keep me off my feet is cut out for the job.

CEO_Bodine says:
Computer: can you identify the organic substance I'm looking at :: hears computer working ::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::hears the CO:: CO: And don't you forget either! ::grins::

CTO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CMO: Yes, and they all seemed eager to learn about the new diversifications.

XO_AQilla_Horn says:
::chuckles::

Host CO_VanSickle says:

<Computer> CEO: Affirmative, it is Deoxy-ribonucleic Acid. It is recommended that Science or Medical scanners b3 used to get any further information
