USS Scorpius - NCC 50666 – 10510.29

"Take the Long Way Home"

Episode 8: "...and THEY told two Friends II..."

Previously on the USS Scorpius:

The ship and crew remain in a distant galaxy through the strange energy fluctuations of a new drive system...

And some not presently understood mechanisms of time and subspace.

The captured Scorpius has been liberated by a very strange shape-shifting friend...the size (and currently SHAPE) of the Scorpius...and his PARENTS.

The shape-shifting life-forms are in direct communication with the Telepathic CNS at this time.

They were informed that they had been captured by a conglomerate of galactic "chop-shop" owners that sometimes captured and killed the beings for parts.

The Scorpius is currently surrounded by chrome-like versions of itself...

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Resume Mission >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Glares angrily at the CTO:: CTO: The next words out of your mouth had better be either "Yes, Sir" or "No, Sir".  Anything else, and so help me Kahless, I will have you removed from duty and confined to quarters.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CTO: The choice is yours, Mister Horn.  You have complete control of your own destiny now.

CTO_Horn says:
::Stares at the XO::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Glares at the CTO::

CNS_Rand says:
::watches the interaction between the crew and the aliens now that the communications system is tuned to them::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::sits in the arboretum, looking at the plant life::

CTO_Horn says:
::Very stern look on his face::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CTO: I am waiting, Mister Horn.  I have plenty of time.

CIV_Serok says:
:: Watches the CO talk with the aliens ::

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
CIV: Prepare an information package on the Federation to send to our new friends.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Taps his COM badge:: *CO* Captain to the ready room.

CTO_Horn says:
XO: Yes sir......

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Taps his COM badge again:: *CO* never mind, captain.

CIV_Serok says:
:: Nods at the CO and sits at her console to prepare the requested package ::  CO:  Aye Captain.

CTO_Horn says:
XO: However as soon as we return home you can expect to have my resignation in hand.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::raises an eyebrow at the comm:: CIV:  You have the bridge.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::looses focus on the plant life::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CTO: Mister Horn...Russ, you are a great officer, and you do your job with splendor.  The last thing I wanted was an argument with you. 

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::moves towards the ready room and enters::

CIV_Serok says:
CO:  I have the bridge. Aye.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::squints, trying to regain her focus as her head starts to spin a little::

ACTION:  The CMO vomits and then collapses face-down on the grass.

CIV_Serok says:
:: continues to prepare the information package ::

CTO_Horn says:
XO: And the last thing I need was to be told that taking the welfare of this entire crew was wrong.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
XO/CTO:  What is going on in here?

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CTO: That was not what I said to you.  Did you listen to anything I said, or did you simply hear sounds?

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: Just two very stubborn minds trying to work out a simple disagreement, Ma'am.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::yelling:: CTO/XO:  All right, that is enough!

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Looks at the CO::

Houlihan says:
::gets the test results and sighs:: Self: This just isn't good.

CTO_Horn says:
::Stands there without the look on his face altering::

ACTION:  The computers onboard begin to exchange information with the Defensers, as the ship-like aliens have called themselves, at blinding speed...

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::looks at the two of them:: XO/CTO:  The last thing I want to see is two of my senior officers acting like children!  Now, what is going on?

CNS_Rand says:
::glances at the ready room doors, thinking after the ship is back to familiar space that she will have to meet with the members of the senior staff::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: I gave an order, and requested a simple answer.  Commander Horn decided he wanted to offer more.  

CNS_Rand says:
::looks over at Serok:: CIV: Is it often like this?

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
CTO:  Commander?

CIV_Serok says:
:: watches the console and the surprising speed of the information exchange ::

CIV_Serok says:
CNS:  Like what Counselor?

CTO_Horn says:
CO: I offered my answer. It was the Commanders prerogative not to accept it.

Houlihan says:
::exits the lab and walks over to Doctor Pierce::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: I asked for a simple yes or no, and nothing more.  

Houlihan says:
Pierce: I had some tests run three times.  Here are the results. ::hands them over::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Looks at the CTO:: CTO: You decided to give me half your life story.  

CNS_Rand says:
CIV: Well, when the doors opened to the Captain's ready room, I thought I overheard raised voices.  Then there has been so much rushing on and off the bridge with our contact watching us.  

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::sighs ... feeling her temper flaring:: XO:  That's enough, Commander!

Pierce says:
::looks up from his studies and takes the PADD, frowns at the test results before him:: Houlihan: Are you sure?  Sorry, of course you are.  You'd better call Doctor Jenise.  She'll want to see these.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Looks shocked at the Captains tone of voice::

CNS_Rand says:
CIV: Just now what I'm used to, then again what I'm used to is a classroom or clinic office.  ::smiles::

Houlihan says:
*CMO* Houlihan to Doctor Garta-Nmbarri.  You are needed in sickbay, doctor.

ACTION:  the CMO does not respond.

Houlihan says:
::frowns at not getting a reply:: Computer: Where is Doctor Garta-Nmbarri Jenise?

Computer says:
Houlihan: Doctor Garta-Nmbarri is in the arboretum.

Houlihan says:
Pierce: I'll go get her.  Be back in a few minutes. ::heads out of sickbay::

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
XO/CTO:  We are 108 million years from home and we are going to do something very dangerous in order to get back.  If my senior officers are going to act like this, how do you two think that will reflect on the rest of the crew?  Tell me that, Gentlemen!

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: I asked you to come in here to arbitrate, but as I did so, Commander Horn answered my question.  He also offered his resignation.

CIV_Serok says:
CNS:  I do not concern myself with matters that do not interfere with my duties.  I apologize, Counselor.

Pierce says:
::nods and goes about his duties::

Houlihan says:
::enters the turbolift and orders it to the right deck::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CO: Commander Horn needs not do such a thing ::Removes his COM badge and places it on the Captains desk:: However, I do.  I will return to my quarters now as a civilian, and will not get into anyone's way. ::Turns and exits the Ready Room::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::lays unconscious on the ground::

CNS_Rand says:
::nods:: CIV: Understood, Captain

Houlihan says:
::leaves the lift and heads into the arboretum:: CMO: Doctor Jenise? ::calls out::

Houlihan says:
::turns the corner and sees the doctor, face down in the grass::

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::looks even angrier, if that's possible::

ACTION:  the CMO groans softly.

Houlihan says:
::rushes to her side:: CMO: Doctor Jenise? ::rolls her over carefully::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Enters a turbolift and orders it to the deck of his quarters::

ACTION:  The CMO cannot respond.

Houlihan says:
Computer: Emergency transport!  Two to beam to sickbay!

CIV_Serok says:
:: lifts her eyebrow when the XO exited the ready room and entered the turbolift ::

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
CTO:  I hope you're satisfied, Commander.

ACTION:  The CMO and Nurse Houlihan are transported to sickbay

CTO_Horn says:
CO: No Ma'am.

Houlihan says:
::materializes on the floor with Jenise in her arms:: Pierce: Brandon!  Help me!

Pierce says:
::rushes to the girls' side and picks up the CMO, quickly depositing her on a biobed::

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
CTO:  Why can't the two of you get on ...

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Stops the lift, and decides to tell his wife what he just did.  Figuring that if she is already in sickbay, there will be plenty of medical supplies around to fix his injuries::

Houlihan says:
::grabs a med tray and a wet cloth and heads to the biobed::

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::has no sense of being moved around::

CNS_Rand says:
::senses the tension in the air as the turbolift doors close::  CIV: Something interesting going on there.

ACTION:  Jenise begins to regain consciousness...and finds she cannot speak...or move her right side.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Exits the lift, and heads for sickbay::

Pierce says:
::activates the biobed and starts running scans::

Houlihan says:
::takes a sample of the vomit remaining on the CMO's lips then wipes her face::

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
CTO:  I need my crew to work together if getting home is going to work.  I do not want to see a repeat of this, do I make myself clear?

Houlihan says:
Pierce: I'll start a test on this. ::rushes it into the lab::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Enters sickbay, and sees a flurry of activity around his wife, who is laying on a biobed...he runs to her side:: CMO: Jeni!  

CTO_Horn says:
CO: Yes Ma'am

Pierce says:
*Sopok/Curtis*:  Emergency, get to the sickbay on the double.  Pierce out.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
Houlihan/Pierce: What happened to her?  She was fine a short time ago!

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
CTO:  I am ordering the two of you to resolve this. And you'd better resolve this quickly.  Now get out.

ACTION:  The scans reveal the CMO has had a major stroke, which has damaged the speech center of the brain.

Pierce says:
XO: Back away, Commander.  I need my team close to her.

CTO_Horn says:
::Turns and leaves::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Numbly backs away, but keeps his eyes trained on his wife::

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::sitting there fuming ... trying to get her temper under control before returning to the bridge::

CTO_Horn says:
::Enters the TL and heads for officers quarters::

Houlihan says:
::gets the sample testing and heads back into sickbay

Pierce says:
::double checks the results::

Sopok says:
::enters sickbay and finds the CMO on a biobed::

CTO_Horn says:
::Arrives at the XO's quarters and rings the bell::

Houlihan says:
::moves back to Jenise's side:: Pierce: Well?

CNS_Rand says:
::waits a few moments, then stands and walks across to the ready room...rings the chime::

CTO_Horn says:
::Rings it again::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Fumbles around, and finds a seat so sit down...he feels weak in the knees::

Sopok says:
::reads the results::  Pierce: Was there an injury?  It appears that she has been treated prior to this.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
CNS:  Enter.  ::snapped response::

Nulahr says:
::answers the door of the Garta-Nmbarri quarters:: CTO: Can I help you Commander?

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Goes to a COM terminal, and contacts Nulahr:: *Nulahr* Commander Garta-Nmbarri to Nulahr.

CIV_Serok says:
:: begins reading :: Out loud:  Interesting.

Curtis says:
::enters sickbay and finds the situation::

CTO_Horn says:
Nulahr: I am here to see Commander Garta- Nmbarri.

Curtis says:
::moves to the XO's side:: XO: Commander, why don't you come into the Doctor's office.  I'm certain someone will update you soon.

CNS_Rand says:
::walks in as the doors open and moves toward the Captain's desk:: CO: Captain, is there anything that I can do to help?  I could sense the anger and tension coming from here, and the Commanders.  

Nulahr says:
CTO: He is not here. ::hears the comm::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
Curtis: I don’t want to leave her out of my sight, Doctor.

CIV_Serok says:
COM: Aliens:  You are a very interesting race.

Nulahr says:
*XO*: Yes, Sir?

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
CNS:  I'm really not in the mood, Counselor.  I have two senior officers who are squabbling like children ... ::trails off::

Pierce says:
Sopok:  She got hit in the head by that statue in her office.  Hannah had jut found the blood clot and was heading to get her for treatment.  We were too slow.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
*Nulahr* Doctor Jenise has been injured somehow.  I will be staying here in sickbay with her for, well, I don’t know how long.  Please watch after the children until further notice.

Hr`Gr`Brd says:
@COM: CIV:  We find you quite...fascinating.  Are you all so...small in dimensions?

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Overhears what Pierce tells Supok::

Sopok says:
Pierce: Then perhaps a thorough treatment is necessary.  She appears to be stabilizing.

Nulahr says:
*XO*: I always watch the children.  That IS my job.  Nulahr out.

CNS_Rand says:
::nods in understanding:: CO: I understand, that would pose a problem for any Captain and if I am correct in my assumption of which two officers considering the way that they left here...it makes matters even worse for you.

Nulahr says:
CTO: He is in sickbay.  It appears Jenise has been injured.

CTO_Horn says:
Nulahr: Thank you.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
Pierce: Are you telling me that this was all caused by her getting hit with that statue?

CNS_Rand says:
CO: If I might be so bold, you could order them for joint counseling until the issues are resolved.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
CNS:  Very likely.  I really feel like throwing something right now ...

CIV_Serok says:
COM: Aliens:   Yes, most of us are small compared to you.  Although we do have a few races that are rather large, you are still by far larger.

CTO_Horn says:
::Rushes to sickbay::

Pierce says:
::looks at Curtis, with a glance that says "Get him out of here!"::

CNS_Rand says:
CO: Then you should.  It isn't always in your best interest to withhold strong emotions.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
CNS:  I did think of that.  I am hoping they can resolve it themselves ...

Curtis says:
XO: Commander, you need to come in here.  The last thing you want right now is to get in the way or distract the doctors.

CNS_Rand says:
CO: Another release would be to simply scream.  A long loud scream can often be an excellent release of frustrations.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
Curtis: Shut up!  You have no idea  what you are saying!  You have no idea what sort of trouble is about to occur if this was caused by that statue!

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
CNS:  I can't do that ... I am in command here, I cannot be seen as weak.

Houlihan says:
Sopok: She is stable, but I don't know about damage.

CNS_Rand says:
CO: In the privacy of this room, with the security and sound proofing available you would not appear weak.  

Pierce says:
::hears the XO yell and doesn't want a bigger problem, precisely a 2 meter tall problem::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Begins to shake with worry::

CTO_Horn says:
::Arrives in sickbay::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
Curtis: This is my entire fault...all my fault. ::Gets a very blank expression on his face::

Pierce says:
XO: Commander, you have 2 choices.  1. Go in your wife's office so we can take care of her.  2. Stay here, yelling at the staff and have me call security! ::sees the CTO walk in:: Well, speak of the devil.  CTO: Get him out of here!

CNS_Rand says:
CO: Besides many of this crew are from species where a yell would seem as a war cry.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::hears people talking around her but can't quite understand what's happening::

Curtis says:
XO: Commander, please, come into the office.  You are only slowing down her treatment.

CTO_Horn says:
XO: Sir if you will come with me.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Looks at Curtis and the CTO:: CTO/Curtis: I need counselor Rand, and I need her now.  You don’t understand, you CAN'T understand!

Houlihan says:
Pierce: Brandon, he's right.  Pel Tor threw that statue through telekinesis.  If he learns of his mother's situation without an inhibitor on full, we could really have a problem.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::shakes her head:: CNS: I don't know ...

Pierce says:
::nods:: Houlihan: Take care of it.

CNS_Rand says:
::smiles:: CO: You could consider it Counselor's orders.  A little bit of a home remedy prescription.

CTO_Horn says:
XO: I will escort you to the counselor’s office.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Looks at Houlihan:: All: Yes!  She understands!  

Houlihan says:
::steps away from the biobed:: *CNS*: Sickbay to Rand, you are needed here.  We have a major situation on our hands.

Houlihan says:
XO: I'll take care of your son.  You let the doctors take care of your wife.  I called the Counselor.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CTO: I will go into Jeni's office, Commander, so I am out of the way.  But please, I can't leave sickbay, not yet.

Pierce says:
::continues to work on Jenise::

CTO_Horn says:
XO: As you wish.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::overhears the comm:: CNS:  Let me guess ... ::sighs::

Sopok says:
Pierce: We need to remove the remaining clot.  It is starting to build pressure.

Houlihan says:
::grabs an inhibitor and heads out of sickbay::

CNS_Rand says:
::glances at the Captain before responding:: *Houlihan* what is the situation?  I'm on my way.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Goes into the CMO's office, and collapses on the couch, all the while trying NOT to think about Pel Tor, the statue, and what has happened::

CTO_Horn says:
::Follows the XO::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Keeps repeating over and over again.. "This is my entire fault, this is my entire fault"::

CTO_Horn says:
XO: Sir if I might speak off the record.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::taps her own comm badge:: *Houlihan*:  Let me guess ... one 7 foot tall Klingon and one slightly smaller tactical officer ... ::doesn't try to keep the sarcasm out of her voice::

CTO_Horn says:
::Closes the door to the doctor’s office::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Looks over at the CTO:: CTO: Russ, you forget, everything said to me now is off the record.

Houlihan says:
*CO*: Captain, Doctor Jenise has had a stroke.  The Commander isn't taking the news very well.  Commander Horn is with him in hopes of keeping him out of Doctor Pierce's way.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::opens her eyes::

CTO_Horn says:
XO: For the record your resignation has been denied.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
*Houlihan*:  Understood.  What is Doctor Jenise's condition?

CNS_Rand says:
::hears the response to the Captain and quickly heads out of the ready room and across to the lifts:: Computer: Sickbay!

Pierce says:
CMO: Jenise, can you hear me?  Don't try to talk right now.  Just blink if you understand.

CTO_Horn says:
XO: As far as anything else goes, I offer my apologies. I was out of line.

ACTION:  Jenise is able to close her left eye.

CNS_Rand says:
::dashes down the corridor from the lift and into sickbay:: 

Houlihan says:
*CO*: She was stabilizing as I left.  I'm heading to put an inhibitor on Pel Tor Garta-Nmbarri.  It appears he's developed telekinetic abilities.  He threw a statue which hit her.  It caused a blood clot which caused the stroke when it broke loose.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CTO: No, Commander, you always had the best interest of this crew as your guide.  I got so caught up in what was happening, that I forgot that.  It is I that should apologize.  ::Looks at the door to main sickbay:: CTO: And I am now paying the price for my arrogance.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::thinks she blinked but isn't certain::

Houlihan says:
::steps out of the lift and towards the Garta-Nmbarri quarters::

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
*Houlihan*:  Thank you and keep me informed.  Horn out.

CNS_Rand says:
::heads over to where the activity is::  Pierce: How is she progressing?

CTO_Horn says:
XO: I place myself at your disposal for any disciplinary action you deem appropriate

Sopok says:
Pierce: Damage is here...

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::Thinks for a moment:: CTO: Russ, they won’t succeed.  As soon as Pel Tor sees Houlihan, he will know what has happened...if he doesn't already.

CTO_Horn says:
XO: You are my superior officer and deserve more respect from me than that.

CIV_Serok says:
:: reads more of what the aliens have sent ::

Pierce says:
CMO: Good, now I want you to try and rest.  Sopok and I need to remove a blood clot.  That's what is causing your headache::

CNS_Rand says:
::looks over the medical scans, nods at Sopok::

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::picks up a decoration from her desk and hurls it against the wall ... ::

Sopok says:
CNS: She's had a stroke caused by a blood clot.  She is currently stable; however, we need to remove the rest of the clot.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CTO: He will blame me for all of this, and rightfully so.

CTO_Horn says:
::Sits next to the XO and places a hand on his shoulder:: XO: And as your friend I am here.

ACTION:  the Defensers contact the Scorpius with what they think may have happened to the Scorpius to bring them here...

Houlihan says:
::rings the chime on the CMO's Quarters::

Nulahr says:
::answers the door:: Houlihan: Yes?

CTO_Horn says:
XO: Jenise will be fine. We have the best in Starfleet working on her you know that.

Houlihan says:
Nulahr: I am Nurse Hannah Houlihan.  I need to see Pel Tor.  His mother requires that I place this on his neck. ::holds out the inhibitor::

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
::takes a deep breath ... then exits the RR onto the bridge::

Nulahr says:
::nods:: Houlihan: Come in.

CIV_Serok says:
:: stands from the Captains chair ::

Pel Tor says:
::Comes running out of his bedroom, all upset:: Houlihan: It's my entire fault!  I know what’s going on!  I can read your thoughts, and you blame me too!  

Pierce says:
CMO: Okay, Jenise, I'm going to put you back to sleep.  I'll see you in a few hours.

CMO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
::tries to blink again but still isn't sure she's done anything::

CNS_Rand says:
Sopok: It has been a while since I assisted with surgery, however, I'll do all that I can to help.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
CIV:  How are thing going?

Pierce says:
::sedates the CMO:: Sopok: Okay, prep her for surgery.  I get to go talk to the boss.

CIV_Serok says:
CO:  They are progressing quite well Captain.  The aliens believe they have figured out the accident that brought us here.

Pel Tor says:
::Breaks down in tears in the middle of the living room floor::

CIV_Serok says:
CO:  They are in the process of trying to help.

Sopok says:
CNS: I believe her husband is in need of your immediate support.  He was near to becoming violent when security took him into the Doctor's office.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
CIV:   That's the best news I've heard today, Captain.

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CTO: Russ, what am I going to do if they can't help her?

Houlihan says:
Pel Tor: Hey, ::moves over to him:: This is that device your mom told you about.  She really needs me to put it on your neck, okay?

CIV_Serok says:
:: lifts her eyebrow at AQilla ::

Pierce says:
CNS: I'm heading in to update her husband.  Would you like to come?

Pel Tor says:
Houlihan: You mean you want to block out what others are thinking of me!  Don't lie to me!

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
CIV:  What else did they send us?

CNS_Rand says:
::nods:: Sopok: I'll be in there if you need anything.  Pierce: Yes, I'll join you.

CTO_Horn says:
XO: She will be fine. I would bet my life on Pierce's skill.

CNS_Rand says:
::walks with Pierce to the Doctor's office::

Pel Tor says:
:: Becomes very upset, and a few small items begin to shake on the shelves they are sitting on::

CIV_Serok says:
CO:  A rather interesting history of themselves and this area of space.

Houlihan says:
Pel Tor: I have never lied to you. ::keeps her voice and emotions calm::  We need to put this on you for a while, it's important.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
CIV:  Nice ... ::feels her anger subsiding::

Pel Tor says:
Houlihan: Don't come near me!

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
CIV:  Can you put it onto a padd so I can look it over?

Houlihan says:
::sees the things shaking and slaps the inhibitor on Pel Tor's neck without another thought::

ACTION:  Houlihan's quick hands get the inhibitor around Pel Tor's neck as he tries to evade.

CTO_Horn says:
XO: I will inform the AQilla that she still has an XO and I will give you some privacy with the counselor.

CIV_Serok says:
CO:  I would not suggest you read the transcript unless you have approximately 7.42 weeks free to do so.

Houlihan says:
Pel Tor: I do what I must.  Now, you cannot take that off for any reason.  ::looks up to Nulahr::

Pierce says:
::heads into the office::

Pel Tor says:
::Suddenly goes stiff, as he can no longer sense anyone around him, then falls into Houlihan’s arms, and sobs uncontrollably::

CNS_Rand says:
::enters the office and moves toward the Exec::

CTO_Horn says:
::Heads for the bridge::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
CTO: Thank you, Russ.  You are a true friend.

Houlihan says:
Nulahr: Make certain that stays on and activated.  Pel Tor: I need to go help your Mother, okay?

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
CIV:  Oh I plan to ... but not just yet.  At the moment I have other concerns ...

Pel Tor says:
Houlihan: Tell her I love her, and I am sorry, please.

CIV_Serok says:
:: lifts her eyebrow :: CO Anything I can help you with Captain?

Pierce says:
XO: Commander, she's going to be okay.  She's had a serious stroke and is currently paralyzed on her right side.  We are taking her into surgery to remove what's left of a blood clot caused by her getting hit by that statue.

CTO_Horn says:
::Arrives on the bridge::

Houlihan says:
Pel Tor: I will.

CO_AQilla_Horn says:
CIV:  No ... ::sighs::

Sopok says:
::moves the CMO to a gurney and pushes her into surgery::

XO_Garta-Nmbarri says:
