Host SM_Pam says:
Well it seems that the Andorians know nothing of a missing Andorian ship that was supposed to be in their area, but I'm not sure that the first officer believes them

Host SM_Pam says:
Two different Andorian operations officers have spoken with him and one seemed curious about the Pak`led ship and their cargo but not claiming to know about their own missing ship,  while the other claimed no knowledge of either ship. Is someone lying and covering something up?

Host SM_Pam says:
Two gems are now secured in the science lab behind a level ten force field for the protection of the crew. When the gems are together and behind the field, they both glow and pulsate with power as well as emit a low-level gamma radiation field.

Host SM_Pam says:
The CSO has already gotten a taste of what they can do. Poor Michelle seems to have a lot of accidents lately doesn't she?

Host SM_Pam says:
Meanwhile Ensign Meadows is undergoing an evaluation by the counselor for his odd behavior, which started after the run in with the Tetrahedron scanning the Triton. Is he permanently damaged or is there a cure somewhere?

Host SM_Pam says:
So what does K`Vas plan to do now? Will he confront the Andorians about the missing ship or will he just take the gems he has and head off for the next location on the map? I think this is getting very interesting, don't you?

Host Andoria_OPS says:
@COM: Triton: XO: Commander, are you still there? :: peers at the screen ::

XO_LtCmdr_K`Vas says:
CTO: Interesting plan commander, very Klingon of you but not up to Starfleet’s recommendations I am afraid.  Keep the ship ready for the unexpected, I am going to rattle the chains on these targs some more.

XO_LtCmdr_K`Vas says:
COM: Andorian OPS: Affirmative, we seemed to have been interrupted momentarily.

Host Andoria_OPS says:
@COM: Triton: XO: Our apologies Commander, there was a slight problem on our end. May we be of assistance now? :: grins broadly ::

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
FCO: Well, that's why we have security.  So no one gets hurt.

XO_LtCmdr_K`Vas says:
COM: Andorian OPS: Yes we were discussing the Pak`led freighter and the disappearance on your vessel the Kondon before we were so rudely interrupted.

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
::raises an eyebrow and her smile widens in amusement:: FCO:  Would you like more then?

CSO_Ens_Peters says:
Computer: Now that we wait for the last gem, the science lab has calmed down, and the 2 gems we have are being monitored for any changes.

FCO_Ens_Meadows says:
::smiles back at her:: CNS: Only if it makes you feel safer?

Host Andoria_OPS says:
@COM: Triton: XO: Commander, yes you mentioned that, but I am puzzled by your question. We do have a ship called the Kondon, and it was reported as overdue, but there was no mention of any Pak`led ship.

FCO_Ens_Meadows says:

Host Andoria_OPS says:
@COM: Triton: XO: This started a few days ago.....in fact about the time the Kondon was reported as overdue.

XO_LtCmdr_K`Vas says:
COM: Andorian OPS: The purpose is clear, the two Andorians I spoke to were very interested in a Pak`led freighter we encountered.  But had little to say when they found that whatever cargo they sought was not on the freighter when we arrived

XO_LtCmdr_K`Vas says:
COM: Andorian OPS: Then someone has most likely captured your vessel and is using its technology

SO Pearson says:
*CSO*: Sorry to disturb you ma'am, but I’ve noticed a difference in power out puts.

Host Andoria_OPS says:
@COM: Triton: XO: Forgive me Commander, we had not thought that possible.

CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
::pushes the cushion to make sure it is set::  XO: Sir your chair is fixed.  I have put a new cushion in place.

FCO_Ens_Meadows says:
::tries to look at the counselor without moving:: CNS: She seems like a good person but I have not had a whole lot of time to get to know them

CSO_Ens_Peters says:
*SO*: Can i get a bit more info?

FCO_Ens_Meadows says:
CNS: She Bajoran and very religious, which is something I could never understand

Host Andoria_OPS says:
:: raises his hand again :: @COM: Triton: XO: Would this have anything to do with a Cardassian ship that passed this way about eighteen hours ago? They requested standard orbit clearance and then they simply disappeared.

SO Pearson says:
*CSO*: Well since our last scan about 20 minutes ago, its gradually gone up 20%.  We do not know anything more then that.

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
::looks down at Meadows:: FCO:  Light on the spiritual convictions, are you?  And you're doing very well so far...

XO_LtCmdr_K`Vas says:
COM: Andorian Control : Disappeared or cloaked?

Host Andoria_OPS says:
@COM: Triton: XO: I can't answer that Commander, but perhaps.

FCO_Ens_Meadows says:
CNS: I was raised on the sciences not some spiritual belief. Don't get me wrong I respect other cultures beliefs but understanding them is something else

CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
::picks up her tools and heads for the TL and ME::

XO_LtCmdr_K`Vas says:
COM: Andorian OPS: Perhaps what?

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
*CEO*  would that phase discriminator show any cloaked ships?

SO Pearson says:
::Looks down at the padd:: *CSO*: I'm sorry, i have missed something, the gamma radiation is also up.

Host Andoria_OPS says:
@COM: Triton: XO: Her Captain was not a pleasant man, Of course most Cardassians aren't. :: smiles slightly ::

CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
*CTO*: The phase discriminators on the ship will show up any phased matter.  Outside the ship is a different matter.

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
::nods::  FCO:  I see.   I have my own beliefs.  ::smiles:: I'm still becoming used to my mate's.

CSO_Ens_Peters says:
*SO*: Thank you, keep monitoring every 5 minutes please.

Host Andoria_OPS says:
@COM: Triton: XO: Perhaps they cloaked. Our sensors have not detected any cloaked ships however.

CIV_Lt_Mrlr says:
::remembers the taste of Cardassian and shudders slightly::

XO_LtCmdr_K`Vas says:
COM: Andorian OPS: I have yet to met any Cardassians that are pleasant.  Could your sensors detect a phase shifted vessel?

FCO_Ens_Meadows says:
::smiles:: CNS: I have been studying Klingon culture for a while now so I understand his beliefs. What do you believe in?

Host Andoria_OPS says:
@COM: Triton: XO: He did mention something rather curious though...:: looks surprised :: phase shifted vessel?

XO_LtCmdr_K`Vas says:
COM: Andorian OPS: You forget I am a Klingon, my people are better at cloaking than most, now what did the captain say?

CSO_Ens_Peters says:
*CTO*: Peters here, may i have a moment?

Host Andoria_OPS says:
@COM: Triton: XO: Well, he said he was looking for a murderer...a Caitian. Now what do you suppose he meant by that?

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
XO: Sir if there is a communications theft going on you might watch the information you give.

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
FCO:  Betazed has a polytheistic set of gods under a central deity.  But I was also raised on Earth, so my beliefs are a homogeny.

Host Andoria_OPS says:
@COM: Triton: XO: I'm afraid that our technology is not capable of detecting phase shift vessels yet, but we are working on it. :: lies like a trooper ::

XO_LtCmdr_K`Vas says:
:: turns slightly to look at the CTO:: CTO: I am aware of that commander, but you have to bait a trap  :: said so that the COM cannot pick up ::

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
*CSO* does it require my presence?

CSO_Ens_Peters says:
*CTO*: Just your ears sir.

FCO_Ens_Meadows says:
CNS: Interesting combination... So how’s the test going?

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
*CSO* go ahead.

CIV_Lt_Mrlr says:
::wonders idly who this Caitian is and if he is handsome.  It's been a while since she had sport with one of her own kind::

CSO_Ens_Peters says:
*CTO*: Just giving you my report sir, gems are secure, but there power output and gamma radiation is up.  we are monitoring the situation, and have taken precautions.

XO_LtCmdr_K`Vas says:
COM: Andorian OPS: You must be very proud you will only be 20 years behind the Klingon empire then.  Now if you would be so kind as to give us the last telemetry on the Cardassian ship, perhaps we might solve one of your two mysteries.

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
::sees that the first set of testing has completed:: FCO: One batch finished and one to go.  I thought it best to a more thorough set of normal exams than a medical tricorder is capable of.  Give me a minute to look over the neural diagnostics.  ::moves slightly to read over the data::

Host Andoria_OPS says:
@COM: Triton: XO: As you wish Commander. I shall have the coordinates fed to your computer directly. Please prepare for transfer.

XO_LtCmdr_K`Vas says:
COM: Andorian OPS: No offense but simple coordinates verbally will suffice, you are after all having a communication theft problem

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
*CSO*  very well perhaps we should evacuate the surrounding decks?

CSO_Ens_Peters says:
*CTO*: That shouldn't be necessary, that’s what the science labs are for sir.  we have emplaced force fields, it will be ok.

Host Andoria_OPS says:
@COM: Triton: XO: I am sorry Commander, but I believe that they have already been sent.

FCO_Ens_Meadows says:
::Mark closes his eyes and then relaxes then quickly opens them:: CNS: What are you doing where you Spoonhead?

ACTION: The Triton receives the data at that exact moment.

XO_LtCmdr_K`Vas says:
CIV: Run the transfer through the security buffers before it gets into the system.

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
FCO:  Hmmm...  ::looks up from the reporting neural stats and at the FCO::  Simply put you have slightly elevated electrical...  ::senses a totally different set of emotions from the FCO and takes a step back::

XO: Aye sir. ::isolates the transmission and keeps it behind a firewall away from the core::

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
::motions for security to come closer.  Immediately sets the testing back to do neural scans and activates the restraint system on the Ensign::

CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
::leaves the TL and enters ME and her office::

FCO_Ens_Meadows says:
::tries to get up and seats the restraining field:: CNS: Why have you kidnapped me?

SO Pearson says:
::Takes another reading of the gems::

XO_LtCmdr_K`Vas says:
COM: Andorian OPS: We will make a pass over theses coordinates, please clear traffic out of our flight path.  If we find anything we will contact you immediately.  :: Pauses :: And if we find anything about the Kondon we will advice Andorian Control...K`Vas out :: Motions for the comm. to be cut ::

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
*CSO* very well, I'll keep an eye on your vital signs. I don't want anymore trips to the infirmary for your staff.

CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
::walks into her office and sits down quite exhausted and very angry::

CSO_Ens_Peters says:
:: Cringes at the CTO's comment:: *CTO*: Safety protocols are in effect sir.

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
FCO:  Ensign...look at me!  I'm not a Cardassian, okay?  I'm Counselor Jakiel.  ::glances at the stat board to check his vitals::

CIV_Lt_Mrlr says:
::cuts the comm. and then checks the coordinates and then looks up:: XO: Sir...I have the flight path of the Cardassians.  They appear to be heading towards Earth.

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
:: cut's the transmission::

XO_LtCmdr_K`Vas says:
CIV: Earth?? Cross reference the map with the Cardassians last know flight path.

FCO_Ens_Meadows says:
Self: Why does that name sound familiar?

CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
::feels the emotions of the bridge crew grow::

 *CSO*: ma'am, just giving you a heads up, since we started monitoring every 5 minutes, nothing new has changed.

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
::decides to take a different tactic:: FCO:  Why do think I am kidnapping you?  Do you believe you have important information?

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
*CSO* keep me posted.

XO_LtCmdr_K`Vas says:
CIV: Well lieutenant shall we pay our old friend Makus a visit?

CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
::pulls up the main frame for the power control board and monitors the last 5 hours of power consumption and outputs::

FCO_Ens_Meadows says:
CNS: You probably sent a agent instead of me to gather information you bastard

FCO_Ens_Meadows says:
::starts to press his hand against the field and is get shocks from the field as he continuously presses against it::

XO_LtCmdr_K`Vas says:
CIV: Open a channel to both Andorian OPS and Control I do not want to leave anyone out, then lay in a course to match the Cardassians.

CSO_Ens_Peters says:
*SO*: Thank you, please keep me posted.

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
::is surprised with the references to covert activities and thinks of the Cardassian ship::  FCO:  Yes, how silly of me.  You were supposed to be the one to go...where?

CIV_Lt_Mrlr says:
::opens a channel to both:: XO: Channels open.

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
*CNS* report .

FCO_Ens_Meadows says:
::push harder and harder against the field and feels the shocks increasing

XO_LtCmdr_K`Vas says:
COM: Andorian OPS:  We are leaving orbit, your assistance was much appreciated.

Host Andorian OPS says:
@COM: Triton: Triton: You may leave when ready. Good luck Commander. Andorian operations out.

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
FCO:  Ensign...desist immediately!!  ::searches her med kit for a hypo in case he refuses to stop, then hits her COM badge, glancing at security::  *CTO*: Having a little problem in sickbay...I'll report in a minute.

CIV_Lt_Mrlr says:
XO: Course laid in, sir.

CSO_Ens_Peters says:
Computer: Continue recording.  With the new readings coming in, its is surprising that both the power out put, and gamma radiation.  The levels have stayed steady, but still they have gone up 20%

XO_LtCmdr_K`Vas says:
CIV: Take us out of orbit, once we pass the buoys take us to warp 7 .  I want to close the gap between us and Makus.

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
*CNS* I'm on my way

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
XO: I am headed down to SB.

XO_LtCmdr_K`Vas says:
CTO: Double time commander, do not let harm befall the counselor.

CIV_Lt_Mrlr says:
XO: Aye sir. ::guides the ship out of orbit and heads towards the buoys::

FCO_Ens_Meadows says:

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
Computer: Sickbay

CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
::senses and intense rush of emotions from someone in sickbay::

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:

FCO_Ens_Meadows says:
::slams his arms down on the bio-bed:: CNS: Ouch... Why do I smell like burnt meat?

XO_LtCmdr_K`Vas says:
*CEO*: Lieutenant we will be going to warp shortly, make your department ready.  Make sure that the power to the force fields in sickbay and science labs is uninterrupted.

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
:: arrives in SB::

CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
*XO*: Understood sir.

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
~~~XO:  Good!  I'm going to need it.  I'm afraid Meadows is going to hurt himself!~~~

CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
*XO*: Sir I just felt a rush of emotions from someone in sickbay is everything alright in sickbay???

FCO_Ens_Meadows says:
::blinks his eyes and feels pain rolling through him::

XO_LtCmdr_K`Vas says:
~~~CNS: As long as he injures no one else~~~

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
CNS: what happened last?

CSO_Ens_Peters says:
::Yawn and stretches out in her chair::

XO_LtCmdr_K`Vas says:
*CEO*: That is something you would have to take up with the medical staff lieutenant.  I only know that our FCO's condition has not improved.

ACTION: As Michelle stretches, her chair tips backwards, sending her to the floor

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
::winces at the pain the flight officer feels as she is so close to him, security grapples with the Ensign momentarily::  Security:  Move back and I'll restore the force fields now.  That should put him out.

CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
::walks out of her office::  ALL:  Can I have your attention please?  ::watches as her staff and crewmen come in close::  We will be going to warp 7 in a few minutes and I will need everyone at their best.  I will need constant power readouts for both sickbay and the science lab concerning all force fields and I need everyone to be sharp.  I can't lose the slightest power from anywhere.  You see a glitch holler at me.

FCO_Ens_Meadows says:
CNS: What happened?

CSO_Ens_Peters says:
::As Michelle lies on the ground, she breaks out laughing::

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
Computer:  Computer, restore force field!

CSO_Ens_Peters says:
Out loud: I'm cursed!!!!

FCO_Ens_Meadows says:
::feels the eyes getting heavier and heavier and his head rolls on it side::

XO_LtCmdr_K`Vas says:
:: out of habit walks up and takes over tactical ::

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
CTO: He had another little 'episode'.  ::turns to the flight officer::  Good, he should be resting for at least an hour.

ACTION: The force field is restored.

CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
::watches her staff as they smile and do their preparations for warp speed::

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
CTO:  I'm afraid I'll have to ask that one more security officer be assigned to him.

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
CNS: if another one where he gets violent I would suggest you keep him sedated

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
CTO:  I agree.

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
CNS: agreed

ACTION: There is a sudden shift in the gemstones energy readings......they have increased another 10 percent
