CO_Capt_Jameson says:
::Is still in the RR, talking with Trelan::

FCO_LtCmdr_Foster says:
::sitting in his quarters::

XO_Cmdr_Trelan says:
:: takes a drink of the beverage given to him by the Captain ::

CTO_Ens_Sek says:
::steps off the TL onto the bridge, manning his station until the Captain is free::

XO_Cmdr_Trelan says:
CO: Personally, I don't know what to think, Captain. :: shakes head :: I can't see her doing it, but at the same time I've seen alot worse from more unsuspecting people.

CTO_Ens_Sek says:
::pays no mind to the fact that he's in civvies, his mind being elsewhere::

FCO_LtCmdr_Foster says:
::hits the console and tries something else::

CO_Capt_Jameson says:
::Nods in agreement::  XO: I don't want to believe she did it.  But I've wanted that of people before, and I've been wrong.  I think our only option is follow the evidence, and hope that something exonerates her

XO_Cmdr_Trelan says:
CO: I agree. I should get Doctor Weeks report shortly.

CTO_Ens_Sek says:
::taps his console lightly, moving from his station to the ready room; he had a little bit to say, and it needed to come out soon::

CO_Capt_Jameson says:
::Closes her eyes, and rubs the bridge of her nose::  XO: And until then? Foster is already going to be hard to handle.  We need to get an answer to this fast, before the AT returns.

Lt_Stocco says:
:: enters the transporter room, looking at the assembled group :: ALL: Which one of you is Ensign Sek? :: his face still a bit red from the previous confrontation ::

XO_Cmdr_Trelan says:
CO: Until then, there's little we can do, sir. Until all the evidence is compiled.

Ens Liman says:
Stocco: Uh, Ens Sek is on the bridge, sir.

CO_Capt_Jameson says:
::Nods  again, and finishes her drink::  XO: Then we'd better get on with the compiling.  Do you mind trying to chase up the Doctor's report? I want to see it as soon as possible.

Lt_Stocco says:
:: grumbles as he leaves without saying anything else ::

XO_Cmdr_Trelan says:
:: nods as he places the glass on her desk :: CO: Will do.

CTO_Ens_Sek says:
::contemplates interrupting the Captain; this was quite urgent::

CO_Capt_Jameson says:
XO: Meet back here in half an hour?

Lt_Stocco says:
:: enters the nearest lift :: Computer: Bridge!

XO_Cmdr_Trelan says:
CO: Sounds good. :: smiles as he turns and exits ::

FCO_LtCmdr_Foster says:
::throws the small console across the room in a fit of temper::

CTO_Ens_Sek says:
::nods to the XO as he passes, and steps into the ready room:: CO: Captain.

CO_Capt_Jameson says:
::Smiles at the retreating back of Trelan, her first smile since the possibility of the murder::

CO_Capt_Jameson says:
::Gestures to her desk, and moves to her seat behind it::  CTO: Ensign.  you wanted to discuss something with me

Lt_Stocco says:
:: exits onto the bridge, his eyes darting directly into the direction of the Tactical console ::

Lt_Stocco says:
:: approaches :: Tac: Are you Sek?

CTO_Ens_Sek says:
::moves to the seat, but remains standing; he watches the door closed, and looks around slowly before speaking:: CO: I need to stay behind and question Commander Telgar, sir.

TO_Gunny says:
Stocco: No, sir. Ensign Sek is in the Captain's Ready Room at the moment. Can I help you?

CO_Capt_Jameson says:
::Raises an eyebrow::  CTO: Why the need Ensign?

FCO_LtCmdr_Foster says:
::punches a wall then stands motionless breathing heavily::

CTO_Ens_Sek says:
CO: I have a special interest in this case. ::looks around more::

XO_Cmdr_Trelan says:
:: hears the voice behind him, turns and tries to recall his name ::

CO_Capt_Jameson says:
CTO: And what would this interest be?

CTO_Ens_Sek says:
CO: This case is the reason I'm on this ship, Captain. I'm charged with finding the killer.

Lt_Stocco says:
TO: No, you can't.

XO_Cmdr_Trelan says:
Stocco: Then perhaps I can. :: glares :: And you are?

CO_Capt_Jameson says:
CTO: No Ensign.  The reason you are on this ship is to be my Chief Tactical Officer.  And that's what you are going to be

CTO_Ens_Sek says:
::growls very softly, not at the Captain, but in frustration:: CO: There are... external circumstances that require this of me, Captain.

Lt_Stocco says:
:: moves around the rail and to the Command deck, pulling out the small identification PADD :: XO: Lieutenant Reed Stocco from FCIS.

XO_Cmdr_Trelan says:
:: looks at his identification code :: Stocco: What the hell is FCIS doing here, and why wasn't I informed?

FCO_LtCmdr_Foster says:
::remembers the brief conversation he had with Sek in the lounge:: Self: He's been planning this from the start.

CO_Capt_Jameson says:
CTO: As I am not aware of any external circumstances, I have had nothing to inform me of these circumstances, I need my CTO.  I need him to lead an AT to rescue a fellow officer who may be in trouble, and have information regarding another murder.

Lt_Stocco says:
XO: My apologies, Commander, but until the one behind these murders is found, I felt it best to keep a low profile.

CTO_Ens_Sek says:
::sighs softly; he would have to tell her... sets his hands on the desk, leaning in close, staring grimly at the Captain:: CO: What I am about to tell you cannot leave this room, Captain. You can tell no one, including Commander Trelan. ::speaks softly::

XO_Cmdr_Trelan says:
Stocco: Low profile or not... :: shoves his ID back at him :: Federation regulations state the Command Staff is to be aware of any and all personnel aboard a starship.

FCO_LtCmdr_Foster says:
::does some digging into Sek's background::

CO_Capt_Jameson says:
::Is starting to get angry::  CTO: It is not usual circumstances for a Captain be ordered by an Ensign.  But I will indulge you, and answer that unless I deem it completely necessary, I will not repeat what I hear.

Lt_Stocco says:
XO: Yes, sir, under normal circumstances. But even you need to acknowledge the fact that these are not normal.

XO_Cmdr_Trelan says:
Stocco: So what is it you need from Mister Sek?

FCO_LtCmdr_Foster says:
::notes there is nothing unusual on the surface and tries to dig a little deeper::

Lt_Stocco says:
XO: I am not being allowed to do my job, Commander. Sek's goons are not allowing me access to the murder scene.

XO_Cmdr_Trelan says:
Stocco: As well they shouldn't. Access can only be granted by senior personnel. You know that.

Lt_Stocco says:
XO: Yes, sir, I do. But in this case, I have full authority granted to me by Starfleet Command.

CO_Capt_Jameson says:
::Listens as Sek talks very quietly to her, getting more and more angry as she hears.::  CTO: And do you have any proof of this exceptional circumstance of yours?

FCO_LtCmdr_Foster says:
::decides to take his concerns to the CO and heads for a turbolift::

XO_Cmdr_Trelan says:
:: thinks there is much more going on aboard ship than he is being told, making him very unsettled, considering he is suppose to be the ship's First Officer ::

CTO_Ens_Sek says:
::pulls a PADD from his civvies, handing it to the Captain:: CO: I brought this just in case...

XO_Cmdr_Trelan says:
Stocco: I will take this up with Ensign Sek when he is finished speaking with the Captain. Until then, you'll have to wait in line.

CO_Capt_Jameson says:
:: Takes the PADD::  CTO: You need to go and organize your AT, Ensign.  No-one will be talking with Telgar until I deem appropriate.

FCO_LtCmdr_Foster says:
::steps out onto the bridge and makes a bee-line for the ready-room::

Lt_Stocco says:
XO: But, Commander...!

CTO_Ens_Sek says:
::nods to the CO and stands up, exiting the ready room and moving onto the bridge; noticing the commotion:: XO: Is there a problem, Commander?

XO_Cmdr_Trelan says:
Stocco: No, buts, Lieutenant... :: stressing his voice, though keeping it even :: That's my final word.

FCO_LtCmdr_Foster says:
::glares at the CTO as h exits and steps into the ready-room:: CO: Got a minute Captain?

XO_Cmdr_Trelan says:
:: looks to Sek :: CTO: Ah, Mister Sek. I have someone here to see you. Someone :: looks to Stocco :: who I must admit, I don't very much approve of.

CO_Capt_Jameson says:
::Is sitting at her desk, looking through the padd::  FCO: I have only a minute

CTO_Ens_Sek says:
::Steps to Stocco, looking him over:: Stocco: Yes?

FCO_LtCmdr_Foster says:
CO: I need to talk to you about this Telgar business.

CO_Capt_Jameson says:
FCO: And I’ve already stated you can't be involved in that particular business

Lt_Stocco says:
CTO: Ensign Sek, I am Lieutenant Stocco from FCIS. I require access to the crime scene in Lieutenant Shubert's quarters by order of Starfleet Command and Internal Affairs, yet your men refuse to acknowledge my authority.

CTO_Ens_Sek says:
::Not sounding surprised:: Stocco: Is that so? Tell me, what kind of training to you have, Lieutenant?

FCO_LtCmdr_Foster says:
::waves dismissively, revealing the bloody knuckles on the back of his right hand:: CO: I've already accepted that Captain, I'm more worried about something else.

CO_Capt_Jameson says:
::Notes the wounds, but doesn't react::  FCO: Go on

FCO_LtCmdr_Foster says:
CO: I don't want that new CTO anywhere near this case.

Lt_Stocco says:
:: pulls himself up by taking in a deep breath :: CTO: I am a forensic scientist and a tactical expert, Ensign, as are all FCIS members. We study crime scenes and gather all evidence, and find whoever is causing criminal incidents. Something you have apparently failed to do, since there have been multiple murders aboard this starship.

CO_Capt_Jameson says:
FCO: I don't think you have any say in that Foster.  But what are your reasons?

CTO_Ens_Sek says:
::turns to Commander Trelan:: XO: Commander, is Lt. Stocco here a member of the crew, then, if only temporarily?

XO_Cmdr_Trelan says:
CTO: As much as I hate to admit it, yes.

FCO_LtCmdr_Foster says:
CO: Captain, that... thing... has been snooping around about Sharra since he came aboard. He damn near interrogated me about my relationship with her while I was trying to eat lunch...

CTO_Ens_Sek says:
XO: I see. In that case, I request Lt. Stocco be assigned to the Away mission to replace Commander Telgar. I can use a man of his... expertise... ::narrows his eyes slightly::

Lt_Stocco says:
CTO/XO: Now wait just a minute... you can't.....

CO_Capt_Jameson says:
::Sighs, suddenly exhausted::  FCO: So this is more of a personal feeling, rather than evidence?  Foster, I can't do anything about a feeling you have.  Shouldn't you be getting ready for your away mission?

XO_Cmdr_Trelan says:
Stocco: I can do whatever I see fit aboard this ship, Lieutenant.....

XO_Cmdr_Trelan says:
CTO: Agreed, Mister Sek. Make sure he's outfitted and ready to head out with you.

FCO_LtCmdr_Foster says:
CO: With all due respect Captain... do you honestly think it wise to put me in a position where I have to take orders from this man?

CTO_Ens_Sek says:
::nods:: XO: Thank you, Commander. Stocco: Lieutenant, I hope you brought civilian clothing. If not, you can have some replicated. Stop by the armory to pick up a phaser and a concealable Com unit, and report to transporter room 1 in 15 minutes. Dismissed.

Lt_Stocco says:
XO: I must protest! I am here under direct orders from Stafleet Command! Not to be one of your... your.... bullies!

CO_Capt_Jameson says:
FCO: Right now, I don't have a choice.  I trust you to act the way any professional Starfleet Officer would LtCmdr.  Please, until we've found Henderson.  Surely you can put aside these feelings if it means saving a man, a fellow officer.

FCO_LtCmdr_Foster says:
::Protests:: CO: Captain... have I ever given you reason to doubt me?

XO_Cmdr_Trelan says:
Stocco: Report as ordered, Lieutenant, or I'll have you placed under arrest for insubordination to a senior officer.

CO_Capt_Jameson says:
FCO: If we discount this meeting, then no.

CTO_Ens_Sek says:
Stocco: Time is ticking, Lieutenant. ::Steps past Stocco and into the TL, tapping his combadge:: FCO: Commander, please dress in your civilian clothing, and bring your phaser and com unit to transporter room 1.

Lt_Stocco says:
:: growls, spins angrily on one heel and storms to the lift, grumbling as he enters and is closed off from the bridge ::

FCO_LtCmdr_Foster says:
CO: then please, trust me now, it is not a good idea to put me to work with this man.

XO_Cmdr_Trelan says:
:: smiles as the two officers depart the bridge, then sits down in the center seat, chuckling ::

CO_Capt_Jameson says:
FCO: I need you on the AT.  I'm short of officers, and I can't afford to lose another one

FCO_LtCmdr_Foster says:
CO: In that case I cannot be held responsible for my actions if Sek mentions anything about Commander Telgar. ::spins sharply on his heels and storms out of the ready room before the CO can reply::

ACMO_Lt_Weeks says:
:: exits the aft lift, approaching the XO :: XO: Commander, I have the results from the autopsy.

XO_Cmdr_Trelan says:
:: stands, taking the PADD being handed to him :: Thank you, Doctor. :: looks over the results ::

CTO_Ens_Sek says:
::steps off the TL, making his way to the transporter room, nodding to Ens. Liman and waiting for the others::

CO_Capt_Jameson says:
*CTO*: Jameson to Sek

FCO_LtCmdr_Foster says:
::gets into the lift and heads directly for the armory::

XO_Cmdr_Trelan says:
:: looks up sharply :: ACMO: Are you sure about this, Baston?

CTO_Ens_Sek says:
*CO*: Go ahead, Captain.

CO_Capt_Jameson says:
*CTO* Are you in a position to talk about something of a delicate nature for a minute?

CTO_Ens_Sek says:
*CO*: Define delicate, sir.

CO_Capt_Jameson says:
*CTO*: AT delicate

ACMO_Lt_Weeks says:
XO: Absolutely, sir.

CTO_Ens_Sek says:
*CO*: Yes, sir.

XO_Cmdr_Trelan says:
Self: Dagva....

ACMO_Lt_Weeks says:
XO: All DNA evidence points that way. I'm afraid there's nothing more I can do.

FCO_LtCmdr_Foster says:
::picks out his favorite rifle along with a few concealable weapons which he hides on his person::

CO_Capt_Jameson says:
*CTO*: I am ordering you not to mention this situation aboard the ship to any of the AT, particularly about Telgar.  Some of your AT members wouldn't appreciate it, and I want as few problems as possible.

XO_Cmdr_Trelan says:
ACMO: I understand. Is your investigation complete?

CTO_Ens_Sek says:
*CO*: Of course, Captain.

ACMO_Lt_Weeks says:
XO: No, sir. I'm running some final analyses on the DNA collected from the weapon.

XO_Cmdr_Trelan says:
ACMO: Let me know as soon as you're done.

CO_Capt_Jameson says:
*CTO*: That was all I wanted to say. Good Luck Ensign

ACMO_Lt_Weeks says:
XO: Yes, sir. :: nods as he exits the bridge ::

XO_Cmdr_Trelan says:
:: sighs as he falls back into the Command Chair heavily, a sour expression on his face ::

CTO_Ens_Sek says:
::sighs softly, hoping his feeling of dread would disappear soon; it got in the way of business...::

FCO_LtCmdr_Foster says:
::steps into the transporter room with a face like thunder::

CO_Capt_Jameson says:
::Sits back heavily in her chair, wishing she still had some whiskey left::
