Host Karriaunna says:
Summary:  The USS Overture has collected its duranium cargo for the Sargus II Refineries along with their AT that seems to have amnesia.

CNS_LtCmdr_Cephas says:
::sits in her chair beside the CO::

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
::glances occasionally down at Keely, wondering what's going to come out of this investigation::

CTO_LTJG_Blade says:
::waiting outside XO's quarters::

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
::walks onto the bridge, looking for the boss::

CEO_Lt_Chaser says:
:: sings Elvis you ain't nuthin butta hound dog ::

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
::checks the helm configurations and corrects the course by .002 degrees and taps the thrusters to forward motion and brings the impulse engines to one half in preparation to leave orbit::

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
::steadies himself and steps out to what he knows is beyond the door::

CNS_LtCmdr_Cephas says:
::is able to tell from the CO's body language that he is wondering about things::  CO: Sir I am sure that it will all work out fine.

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
Self: Hmm, ooooookie.

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
*CTO* Did you want me Sir?

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
::just smiles at Keely, and then looks up as Des' door opens:: XO: Good morning, Commander. I trust you slept well?

CTO_LTJG_Blade says:
*TO*: No, Ensign.

CMO_Lt_Silver says:
::Looks at her staff as they note the various tests she has prepared.::

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
*CTO* Okay then, I'll be back in the rec room. ::goes back to the turbolift::

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
::looks the small crowd over:: CO: All this, just for me? ::shakes head:: CO: I slept as well as could be expected...

CMO_Lt_Silver says:
::Shrugs and sighs hoping they find something to explain what was going on.::

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
XO: Well, that's understandable, under the circumstances. ::steps back out of the way:: I'm sure you lead the way. ::pauses:: Or maybe you don't?

CNS_LtCmdr_Cephas says:
::nods to the Commander acknowledging his statement::

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
::gets off on the wrong deck::

CMO_Lt_Silver says:
::Glances at the chronometer.::

CEO_Lt_Chaser says:
:: thinks oh no Flight is at helm, makes sure she has a seat belt handy ::

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CO: Perhaps you had best lead the way... I haven't been aboard a ship like this in a long time...

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
::takes the corner of her uniform and polishes the console:: Self: Hate those fingerprints!

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
::blinks, and then nods:: XO: Not a problem. ::gestures for Blade to join him:: CTO: Let's make sure there aren't any looky-loos, shall we? ::starts off down the corridor::

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
::walks past a group of people:: Self: Hmm, must be a party.

CTO_LTJG_Blade says:
::follows the Captain::

CNS_LtCmdr_Cephas says:
::smiles and takes up a positions behind both that allows her to hear their conversation and observe body language and postures un-interfered::

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
::walks with the CO:: CO: I don't see why you're so nervous to have the crew find out, there really isn't anything to hide exactly... I simply don't belong here.

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
::does a spit polish on one stubborn section and smiles as she finally sees her clear reflection::

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
::offers Maylen an apologetic smile:: CO: Starfleet captains... we're a worrisome lot. That's why they hire us. I'd rather keep this as controlled as possible. ::slows as they reach the lift and presses the call button::

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
All: Excuse me a moment. ::taps badge:: *Bridge*: Duke to Bridge. Ensign Flight, is the ship prepped and ready?

CEO_Lt_Chaser says:
:: paces around ME grumbling about how slow everyone on this ship is.

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
::watches as the group reaches the turbolift:: Self: Hmm, what a dull party that was.

Host Karriaunna says:
ACTION:  As they pass various crew members, eyes briefly follow the lot curiously.

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
*CO*: All ready at your pleasure Captain.

CNS_LtCmdr_Cephas says:
XO: How are you feeling this morning. Commander?

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
*FCO*: All right, permission granted to break orbit and assume course for Sargus-II at Warp Seven.

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
::continues to be on alert, expecting the worst if not preparing for it:: CNS: As well as can be expected, Commander.

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
*CO*: Aye, aye sir, immediately.

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
*FCO*: I'll leave it in your hands, Ensign. Duke out.

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
::steps into the empty lift, leading the processional in::

CNS_LtCmdr_Cephas says:
XO: Well try and relax as much as possible.... I am sure that we will figure it all out.

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
All: All stations, preparing to break orbit, please stand by for de-orbit burn.

CNS_LtCmdr_Cephas says:
::enters and wheels her chair around with zero radius::

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CNS: If our situations were reversed, Commander, I'm sure you'd be on edge as well.

CEO_Lt_Chaser says:
:: thinks it is about --------time we got moving ::

CMO_Lt_Silver says:
::Looks up a the all comm and looks toward her door.::

CEO_Lt_Chaser says:
:: buckles herself in ::

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
::moves thruster back and breaks orbit, moving towards the outer marker post::

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
TL: Deck 3.

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
*CTO* Let me know when you want me... Sir.

Host Karriaunna says:
ACTION:  The vibrations of the engines can be felt throughout the deck platings of the ship.

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
::looks around as the vibrations kick in, then forward::

CMO_Lt_Silver says:
::Beginning to wonder what was taking them so long.::

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
::brings impulse systems to half:: All: We are half impulse to outer markers, stand by to go to warp in two minutes.

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
::moves to the tactical department and starts checking on the consoles::

CTO_LTJG_Blade says:
*TO*: If you are on Deck 10 I would like you to do phaser maintenance.

CNS_LtCmdr_Cephas says:
::doesn't feel the shaking of the engines but sees the tell-tell signs::

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
::touches the lift wall and feels the vibrations, frowning::

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
*CTO* Got it Chief.

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
All: Hang on folks, here we go. ::taps the warp engine controls:: Warp one......two.......three.......

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
::::moseys on to phaser maintenance::

Host Karriaunna says:
ACTION:  The usual feeling of slight g force of acceleration is noted.

CEO_Lt_Chaser says:
:: thinks we are gonna die ::

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
All: Four........five.........six...........warp seven and holding. ::turns and smiles at the bridge crew:: Thought I couldn't do it huh?

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
::enters phaser maintenance and moves to the console::

Host Karriaunna says:
ACTION:  As the ship hits warp seven, the acceleration evens out back to normal.

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
::watches the lift numbers tick down until the room slows:: All: Let's go. I'm sure Commander Maylen doesn't want to be inconvenienced any longer than necessary.

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
Self: Let's see, as long as I don't push the red button. ::checks the relays::

CEO_Lt_Chaser says:
:: watches the warp signature and acceleration curves ready to break off power if  the FCO gets cute ::

CTO_LTJG_Blade says:
*TO*:And Ensign do not push the red button at any cost.

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
::heads out of the lift with everyone::

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
*CTO* I hear ya chief!

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
::follows Desmond out and around the corner toward the ship's small Sickbay::

CNS_LtCmdr_Cephas says:
::continues on with the group until they reach sickbay::

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
::holds the course steady and smooth::

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
::moves over and starts cleaning the power cells::

CTO_LTJG_Blade says:
::still following the Captain::

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
::looks around the console a worried look on her face:: Self: Ok where did she put them?

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
::looks the small facility over, inwardly frowning:: CO: I suggest we skip the pleasantries and do a quantum resonance scan on me. If I'm out of place it should show.

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
::hums "Here we come a wassailing" as she works::

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
::glances over at Maylen:: XO: Let's just let Sil.. the doctor do what she thinks she needs to first, all right? It's better that way.

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
::glances at the navigational sensor readings and sees something:: Self: Now what?

CMO_Lt_Silver says:
::Starting to get impatient.  How long does it take to get from one deck to the other?::

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
*CO*:Captain, I have a contact on the sensors, coming aft from the system we just left.

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
::leaves Keely in charge of the group and steps away:: *FCO*: What kind of contact?

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CO: Being a Doctor myself, I can tell you there's nothing wrong with me... ::sighs and shakes his head:: Just do whatever is necessary

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
*CO*: Trying to get an identification now sir. Hang on.

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
::waits on Flight's report, but impatiently::

CMO_Lt_Silver says:
::Looks up at those entering and mumbles under breath::  About time...

CNS_LtCmdr_Cephas says:
::smiles:: XO: Doctors always make the worst patients::

CMO_Lt_Silver says:
XO:  Glad you could join me.  If you will come this way, we will get things completed quickly.

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
::finishes that and moves back to charge the cells::

CMO_Lt_Silver says:
CNS:  Keely, we can make this go quicker if you ask him your questions while I run these tests.

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
*CO*: It reads as an energy signature....could be......no it's Breen sir! We have a Breen ship coming up on our rear.

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
::notes yet another change, so both the Ahkileez's are gone...:: CMO: Of course... ::walks over::

CNS_LtCmdr_Cephas says:
::nods and exits her chair using her braces instead::

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
::curses under his breath:: *FCO*: I'll be right up.

CMO_Lt_Silver says:
::Quickly and efficiently begins the various tests for a through check over.::

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
CNS: Take charge down here, I'm returning to the bridge. CMO: Doctor, ready your medical team. We have an uninvited visitor on an intercept course with us.

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
CTO: Let's head to the bridge.

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CMO: Perhaps you can answer something for me while you... ::moves for a scan:: confirm there's nothing wrong with me.

CNS_LtCmdr_Cephas says:
::nods to the CO::

CTO_LTJG_Blade says:
CO: Yes, Sir.

CNS_LtCmdr_Cephas says:
::Waits for the XO to ask his question::

CMO_Lt_Silver says:
CO:  Tell them to wait their turn.

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
::monitors the incoming ship hoping it changes course and goes right by::

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
::ducks out of Sickbay:: *FCO*: Go to Yellow Alert, Lieutenant!

CEO_Lt_Chaser says:
:: yawns kicks backs and closes her eyes ::

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
::checks the console again::

CMO_Lt_Silver says:
XO:  What is that?

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
*CO*: Aye sir yellow alert.

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CMO: Vulcans. More specifically... where are they?

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
*CTO* Phaser maintenance is complete Sir.

CEO_Lt_Chaser says:
:: almost falls out of her chair at the alert ::

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
*Shipwide*: All hands, yellow alert. All stations yellow alert status.

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
::looks up at the alert:: Self: Oh what now? ::heads to the bridge::

CMO_Lt_Silver says:
XO:  Vulcans?  Well, except for the odd one or two, I would presume they are on their home planet.  After all, they rarely if ever leave.  The are very xenophobic.

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
::breaks into a fast jog towards the lift, slapping the call button impatiently::

CEO_Lt_Chaser says:
:: thinks the FCO should hush ::

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CMO: I see... do you know why?

CMO_Lt_Silver says:
XO:  Not exactly.  The theory is that somewhere in their past, they had a very bad experience with a first encounter.  After removing them from their home world, they basically locked themselves in and others out.  Though there is some, if limited trade.

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
::hops into the lift as the door slides open, shouldering past the door before it can finish opening:: CTO: Hurry, Vraalnec!

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
::enters the lift and orders it to the bridge::

CNS_LtCmdr_Cephas says:
XO: Sir, did you experience anything unusual during transport?

CNS_LtCmdr_Cephas says:
::decided that it was a good time to begin her questions::

CMO_Lt_Silver says:
::Completing one test, begins another.::

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CMO: Not right, not right... ::looks over to the CNS:: CNS: Well... yes actually. After I came aboard things felt... off, different somehow, hard to explain.

CMO_Lt_Silver says:
::Taking a few samples, hands them to her nurse for a complete scan.::

CTO_LTJG_Blade says:
::goes to the TL::

CNS_LtCmdr_Cephas says:
XO: Was it immediately follow transport or did it take a few moments?

CEO_Lt_Chaser says:
:: gets up and replicates a peanut butter sandwich ::

CTO_LTJG_Blade says:
::gets in to the TL::

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
::enters the bridge and moves to tactical::

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
TL: Bridge. Emergency speed.

CMO_Lt_Silver says:
CNS/XO:  I will be right back.

CNS_LtCmdr_Cephas says:
::nods to the CMO::

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CNS: I'm not sure, it came on gradually... but I think I felt something at least on transport. Anyway, I came to the bridge... everything was still normal... Captain Ahkileez stood to leave and... things changed to what they are now, and no one remembers.

Host Karriaunna says:
ACTION:  The turbolift accelerates to a speed making the CTO feel his stomach was left behind.

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
::grabs on to the handle as the lift lurches upward::

CTO_LTJG_Blade says:
::feeling queasy::

CEO_Lt_Chaser says:
:: eats half the sandwich and stores the other half behind the warp core ::

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
::checks the sensors and phaser direction from the bridge::

CMO_Lt_Silver says:
::Runs the tests herself, keeping one ear towards the others.::

CNS_LtCmdr_Cephas says:
XO: So this Captain Achoo... Achoozie ::Stumbles on the pronunciation::

CTO_LTJG_Blade says:
::regurgitates his lunch::

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
::ducks out of Blade's way:: CTO: You head back down to Sickbay. B'Natoobe and I will handle this.

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CNS: Ahkileez ::pronounces the word phonetically with the proper lilt learned from a year on Vulcan::

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
::exits the lift and strides quickly toward his chair:: FCO: Status on our guest/

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
::sees the Captain enter the bridge:: CO: Sir, I've been watching the Breen ship closely and it's matching us. Speed and course, but staying just outside of weapons range.

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
::looks up at her name being spoken::

CTO_LTJG_Blade says:
CO: Yes, Sir.

CNS_LtCmdr_Cephas says:
::nods::  XO: He was on the bridge when you got there and then he just vanished in front of your eyes?

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
::settles into his chair:: TO: Shields to ready?

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
::sets shields:: CO: Um, Aye sir.

CTO_LTJG_Blade says:
::blows a big wad of gagh out of his mouth::

CMO_Lt_Silver says:
::Comes back with a couple of the experiments completed, handing them to the CNS::

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CNS: Basically, yes. Then this Captain... Duke appeared, and most of the crew had either disappeared, or hold no memory of things passed.

CTO_LTJG_Blade says:
::watches as the wad squirms away::

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
::faces front again:: FCO: All right. Slow to warp six. Let's see what they do.

CTO_LTJG_Blade says:
TL: Sick bay .

CNS_LtCmdr_Cephas says:
CMO: What if we view a vid recording of the bridge during that time frame... might spark something. ::looks at the report and frowns::

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
CO: Yes sir, warp six coming up. ::taps the warp controls and brings the Overture to warp six::

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CNS: Considering what's happened, I highly doubt you'll see anything but my acting out of place.

CMO_Lt_Silver says:
CNS:  I will pass that on.

CMO_Lt_Silver says:
*CTO*:  When you get a chance, check the bridge sensors for the time the first officer came aboard.

CNS_LtCmdr_Cephas says:
XO: That maybe but I am hoping you can tell us when things exactly changed for you.

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
::glances over at the TO:: TO: Do we have a type or class on that Breen ship? I want to know what I'm dealing with here.

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CMO: Were you able to run a quantum resonance scan?

CTO_LTJG_Blade says:
*CMO*:Yes, Ma'am.

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
CO: Sir, the Breen are changing course. They are going to pass us if they remain on their present course.

CMO_Lt_Silver says:
::Looks at Keely::  XO:  A what?

CNS_LtCmdr_Cephas says:
::shakes her head:: CMO:: CMO: Something he mentioned earlier.

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
::sighs loudly:: CMO: Don't tell me, let me guess...

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
::nods:: FCO: Maintain course and speed. We'll keep an eye on them. ::thinks:: Does their present course take them near our destination?

CEO_Lt_Chaser says:
:: orders herself a nice cold Trixian Bubble Juice and sits down her feet on the engineering console ::

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
::watches sensors carefully::

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
::nods:: CO: Aye sir.

CNS_LtCmdr_Cephas says:
XO: What kind of scan is it?

CMO_Lt_Silver says:
XO:  By all means, guess...

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CMO: The quantum resonance that all matter in the universe shares, the unalterable quantum resonance that might prove I'm not simply crazy...

CMO_Lt_Silver says:
XO:  I am not familiar with equipment that can do that.

CTO_LTJG_Blade says:
::leaves the TL  and goes to Sickbay::

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
:;monitors the Breen's movements:: TO: Did you see that? They are changing course back to us again.

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CMO: Thought not. I could probably explain the basics, but you seem to lack the technology to replicate the method.

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
FCO: I'm watching it. Gotta be plain crazy.

CMO_Lt_Silver says:
::Looks at Keely and shrugs her shoulders.  He was all hers.::

CMO_Lt_Silver says:
::looks at a report being handed her.::  XO:  According to this, you are one hundred percent... well, you.

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
::watches the course lines intersect again:: FCO/TO: This doesn't bode well. B'Natoobe, try to hail them.

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
::sees something new on the sensors:: Self: What the???

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CMO: Comforting to hear that, thank you Doctor.

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
TO: Well you know they have to be trying to take us on. ::smiles and looks back to the panel, her eyes widen::

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
CO: Aye Sir.....but Sir, we've got something coming toward the cargo bay.

CNS_LtCmdr_Cephas says:
::smiles encouragingly at the XO::  XO: Sir I know how hard this must be for you.

XO_Cmdr_Maylen says:
CNS/CMO: I'm afraid you're just going to have to trust me that... well everything you are and everything you know is wrong.

CMO_Lt_Silver says:
XO:  Perhaps it is all just stress.  Maybe after we drop the ore off, you can take some time off.

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
CO: It's moving real smooth but it's there.

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
::ties into OPS and opens a hailing frequency, sending a comm request::

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
CO: Captain, I'm getting a signal from the Breen.....an energy beam. Sir, I think they are trying to lock on with a transporter beam.

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
CO: No answers to our hails.

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
::frown deepens:: FCO: Evasive action. TO: Bring shields to full and drop the hail. Charge rear phasers.

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
CO: I'll get engineering to verify.

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
::Pulls up phasers to charge while raising the shields::

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
CO: Evasive action, aye.

CEO_Lt_Chaser says:
:: yawns and sips her juice ::

TO_Ens_B`Natoobe says:
::drops the hail attempt:: Self: I just don't get it....what is going on? ::watches sensors::

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
*CEO*: Engineering I need a verification on a possible transporter beam. Breen configuration.

FCO_Ens_Flight says:
::sighs and watches the screen nervously::

Host CO_Capt_Duke says:
::watches the rear image of the Breen ship behind:: FCO/TO: I don't take kindly to being pickpocketed. Let's see if they get the message.

Host Karriaunna says:
ACTION:  The Breen ship vanishes from sensors.
