Prologue:
The well established Klingon colony known as H`atoria, sits on the edge of Federation and Klingon space. Relations with the colony have been minimal and barely cordial at best. Oh brother, Klingon hospitality is legendary....riiiight!

The Klingons have requested that a Federation ship be sent to collect a group of Federation citizens, whose ship has been disabled due to an ion storm while passing through Klingon space.

The civilian star liner Galaxy Star, a converted Galaxy Class, has been damaged severely by an intense ion storm that has made both it's impulse and warp engines inoperable and breaches on several decks make repairs highly difficult.

The Triton has been dispatched to pick up the passengers and return them to Starbase 16 where they will be boarded onto other ships to continue their journey. The Galaxy Star is to be evaluated for salvage or destroyed if necessary.

Host SM_Pam says:
Several passengers have suffered minor injuries ranging from cuts and bruises to broken limbs and one heart attack. With over two hundred passengers to transport, the Triton crew should be kept busy for a while.

Host SM_Pam says:
We all know that Klingons are great warriors and fierce battle opponents. So why don't they just send the passengers back on one of their own ships? No room at the inn?

Host SM_Pam says:
Star Trek, A Call To Duty, is proud to present the USS Triton in..."H`atoria".....Chapter one...."On Our Way".....Stardate 10608.17

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
*CO*:  Sir, permission to speak to you in your ready room?

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
::Is putting his Command robe on in preparation for the call.::  *CEO*:  Granted commander, but make it brief.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CEO:  Commander, the Captain is waiting for a conference with the governor.  If it is not important, I would suggest it wait.

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
*CO*:  Thank you, sir.

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
::Pulls out the gift for the captain and shows it to the XO.::  XO:  I just want to give him this.  That is all, Sir.

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
::Picks up the box and hits the door chime.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CEO:  Well you have his attention.  It's a nice give, J'Loni.  I'm sure he'll appreciate it.

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
::On the bridge at the science station, studying about ion storms.::

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
XO: Thank you, sir.

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
Aloud:  Enter.

OPS_Ens_Salan says:
::Sends the XO a text message.::

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
::Straightens up and walks in proudly.::

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
::Gives the captain the cross chest salute.::

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
XO:  All weapons and shields online.

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
::Wonders if the Federation finances are worse than they seem considering they are.::

CMO_LtJG_Latta says:
<MO_Hertz> CMO: I think we have everything ready, ma'am.

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
CO:  Sir, I picked this out for you while I was on our home world.  It is something small and something that you love.  ::Hands the captain the box.::

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
CEO:  Yes, commander what is on your mind, excuse my uniform but I believe it may help in this situation.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
::Receives the text message on her console, and smiles.::  CTO:  Good job, Commander.  Run diagnostics to make sure all systems are at peak.

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
::Takes the box and opens it looking at the contents.::

OPS_Ens_Salan says:
::Antennae perk as he reads the response:.:

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
XO:  Yes, Ma'am.

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
XO:  Do we have a list of the passengers of the Galaxy Star?

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CSO:  There are 200 of them.  You should be able to pull their names up in the Starfleet database, Lieutenant.

CMO_LtJG_Latta says:
MO_Hertz:  Please check everything one more time. I want to make sure we have every emergency planned for.

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
XO:  Ma'am, I don't think I have enough clearance for a security check on them, but maybe the CTO could give it a look. I am not that much of a cop.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
::Pulls up the data.::  CSO:  You're right.  It appears there are only 200 passengers and crew.  It's a private liner.  We'll have to wait till we get there.

OPS_Ens_Salan says:
::Snickers.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
::Walks over to OPS.::  OPS:  Dinner, holodeck 2, and it *is* a social engagement.  ::Grins and walks away not giving him a chance to respond.::

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
::Pulls a jejtaq out of the box.  Running back and forth in his hand is pleased with the balance of the weapon.  On the hilt of the curved knife is the insignia of House Malok.  Etched into the blade is the words 'K`Vas Son of Malok.::  CEO: You honor me with this fine weapon commander.

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
::Stands at attention still.::

CMO_LtJG_Latta says:
::Sits and a console and tries to pull up the most recent medical status for the passengers of the Galaxy Star:.:

OPS_Ens_Salan says:
XO:  Whatever you say, Commander.

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
XO:  Systems check, show no abnormalities.

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
XO:  Maybe the computer can help. ::Smiles.::  Computer:  Cross reference the passenger list with newscast and with Starfleet Security files please.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
::Nods to Commander Ray.::  CTO:  Long range tactical sensors picking up anything out of the ordinary?

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
CO:  You honored me by letting me go home to the great hall to receive my rite of ascension by Martok and the entire council.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
*CMO*:  Lieutenant, have you gotten all your physicals completed of the senior staff?

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
XO:  Nothing so far.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CSO:  Good idea, but I don't think you will find anything.  It's a private liner.  Starfleet usually doesn't keep a list of their crew manifest.

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
CO:  Martok has now declared that my tainted blood no longer is a concern among the Klingon people.

OPS_Ens_Salan says:
::Straightens up his uniform::

CMO_LtJG_Latta says:
*XO*:  No, ma'am.  If the CTO, FCO, CIV, and CO are available I have time now.

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
::Laughing a loud belly laugh.::  CEO:  Martok...how is the one eyed giant?  It has been long since I stood with him during the wars

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CTO:  Looks as though you are missing something, Commander.  I will take your tactical station until you get back.  Please report to sickbay to get your annual physical.  ::Grins at him.::

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
CEO:  Such is in his right to take the taint off of your honor.  Well done to bring the approval of the chancellor to your house.  Q'Apla.  ::Snaps a quick cross chest salute.::

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
CO:  He is doing well and he was honored as I told him that I not only do this for myself but to honor my captain the Son of the house Malok K'Vas.  He heard your name and nodded as I went down between the row of the council and the pain sticks.

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
XO:  Yes, Ma'am.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CTO:  Oh, and Commander?  Take Commander Meadows with you.  ::Smiles.::

OPS_Ens_Salan says:
CTO:  Watch the Doc with that thermometer.

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
CO:  Q'Ala.  ::Snaps the salute back.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
*CMO*:  I am sending Commanders Ray and Meadows to get checked out, Doc.  Have fun.

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
XO:  We have no data about the ion storm, but I would like to try to obtain them from the Klingon ASAP. I am curious to know if the storm was a real accident or not.

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
CO:  He offered his hand to me to help me out of the pit but I did not take it. I got out of the pit on my own.

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
::Takes the nearest turbolift to sickbay.::

OPS_Ens_Salan says:
::Eyeballs the empty seat at Flight.::

CMO_LtJG_Latta says:
*XO*:  Thank you, ma'am. Latta out.

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
CEO:  One day I will tell you of our chancellor and if time permits of some of the battles of my house.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CSO:  Is there anything on LRS that can provide the scientific data you need.  The Captain was quite adamant about wanting to deal with the Klingons himself.

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
CO:  I also brought back a case of blood wine vintage 2283 and a great big bottle of Necti.

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
CO:  Sir, you honor me and my house.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
::Looks at OPS, and smiles.::  OPS:  Go ahead, Ensign.  Until Meadows gets back.

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
::Enters sick bay.::

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
CEO:  Offered his hand I will have to speak with him about that, he is weakening in his age apparently.  ::laughs again::

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
XO:  Nothing, the storm was a few days ago, and the only one to have scans of them is the Klingon, sounds weird isn't it?

OPS_Ens_Salan says:
::Stands trying not to act too eager and takes a seat at flight.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CSO:  I will request permission from the Captain.  Hold on that request, please.

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
CO:  When we have time I would like honor you with my tale of my adventure on the home world.

CMO_LtJG_Latta says:
::Stands and gestures to the bio-bed.::  CTO:  If you would, please, Commander.

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
CEO:  When we have finished this mission will make time to tell of battles and of honor and glory.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
*CO*:  Captain, Lieutenant Polo would like to gather some data from the ion storm.  The only information he has available to him would be by speaking to the Klingons.

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
XO:  And this liner, we have more information about the Obsidian Order than about them. It's totally weird. ::looks puzzled::

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
::Lets out a Klingon belly laugh.::  CO:  I guess he thought I was slightly weakened by the pain sticks all 12 of them.  But I only served to prove even more how much of a Klingon I am.

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
CO:  I would be honored.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CSO:  Well apparently it broke down in the wrong end of town, if you know what I mean.

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
*XO*:  Permitted commander.  My people are fierce warriors but not very thorough scientists, have Mr. Polo gather all the information he can

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
CMO:  I hope this won't take long, I would like to get back to my post.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
*CO*:  Thank you, Captain.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
OPS:  Were you able to get hold of the governor to patch him through to the Captain?

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
XO:  Yes, but usually liners before going to a cruise leave a list of passengers to the civilian authorities, and they are obliged to pass them to us.  Instead nada.  Am I the only one who see something weird in it?  ::raises an eyebrow::

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
CEO:  Now commander its time for you to return to your station and begin preparations for the salvage or destruction of the Galaxy star.

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
::Snapping a cross chest salute again.::  CO:  Sir you are busy and I have work to do.

OPS_Ens_Salan says:
::Double checks the FCO's calculations.::  XO:  The governor's people are on standby, ma'am.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CSO:  The Captain gave his permission to contact the Klingons.  Maybe the Klingons will have some information on the passengers as well.

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
CO:  Q'Apla, sir.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
OPS:  Does the Captain know?

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
XO:  Ah, ok now how do I proceed from here, do I contact the Klingons personally? Who do I contact?  ::looks a little lost.::

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says: 
::Once the ready room is empty again he waits for OPS to patch his communication through.::

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
::Heads out the ready room and to her station shining a smudge off her house crest on her sash.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
OPS:  I think you can patch that call through now, Ensign.

OPS_Ens_Salan says:
::Patches the call through to the CO.::

CMO_LtJG_Latta says:
CTO:  It should only take a few minutes.  Please sit on the bio-bed. ::Grabs a medical tricorder from the table.::

Host SM_Pam says:
<Gov_Rakl> COM: Triton: CO: This is Governor Rakl.  To whom am I speaking?

FCO_LtCmdr_Meadows says:
::Slowly opens his eyes.::  Self:  Ahhhh...

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CSO:  I would start with the operational department on H'atoria.

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
XO:  Maybe J’Loni can help me.  ::smiles::

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
::Hears that and turns her head.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
::Looks over at the CEO.::  CEO:  Commander, can you assist Lt. Polo?

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
::Gets on bed and waits.::

OPS_Ens_Salan says:
XO:  The Captain is currently on the phone, ma'am.  ::Grins at the XO.::

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
COM: Governor: I am K`Vas Son of Malok, and I command this vessel.

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
::Walks over to Lt. Polo.::  CSO:  What is it that you need from me?

CMO_LtJG_Latta says:
::Starts to scan with the medical tricorder while the bed makes readings.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
::Walks over and stands behind OPS, just watching the flight console, standing directly behind him.::

FCO_LtCmdr_Meadows says:
::Looks around sickbay and slowly seats up.::

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
CEO:  I would like to see the sensors logs that the Klingon have about the ion storm that hit the Galaxy Star, but I don't know who to ask to. You sure have contacts in the Klingon High Command.

Host SM_Pam says:
<Gov_Rakl> COM: Triton: CO: Captain K`Vas, Rakl, Son of T`argl, Governor of this Colony. How long until you reach us?  We have injured passengers and we are anxious to have you collect them.

OPS_Ens_Salan says:
::Points his antennae at the XO.::

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
CSO:  Yes, I do.

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
CEO:  So would you be so kind as to retrieve these records for me?

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
CSO: I will try to accommodate you.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
::Sees OPS antennae wiggling around, and steps to the side.::  OPS:  How's she handling for you?

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
COM: Governor: 3 days governor.  We are fully prepared to relieve you of this situation.  We both know there is no glory in playing nurse maid.

CMO_LtJG_Latta says:
::Looks at the reading from both machines.::  CTO:  Everything checks out, Commander.  Are there any problems you need to inform me of?

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
OPS:  Don't get too comfortable.  I'm sure Commander Meadows will be happy you kept his seat warm, but I'm sure he'll want it back.  ::Chuckles.::

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
CEO:  That would be excellent, commander. Thank you. See I am not that sure that the accident to the cruise ship was a real accident, and you know, better be prepared.

OPS_Ens_Salan says:
::Grins.::  XO:  Well it's not like the Pharaoh, but it’s a smooth ride and not as stiff as the Delphyne.

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
CSO: Well Lt. there was a definite class 10 ion storm in the area of the colony four days before.

FCO_LtCmdr_Meadows says:
::Grabs his stomach.::  Self:  Ahh...

OPS_Ens_Salan says:
::Grins at the XO.::  XO:  Well he'll get it back, just nice to fly something that isn't a flying brick, like I flew in Special Ops.

Host SM_Pam says:
<Gov_Rakl> Com: Triton: CO: Captain, the fact that the Federation sent a Klingon to carry out this mission must mean that they know the correct protocols and have chosen not to offend us. You do us honor.

FCO_LtCmdr_Meadows says:
CMO:  Doc could you give me something so I can get back to work.

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
CEO:  Class 10, wow, that's huge, you Klingons have even tougher storms to deal with than us Terrans.  Now I would like to see the logs, if nothing else for scientific interest.

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
CSO:  The damage was very severe to the planet and the liner.

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
COM: Governor: I would have had it no other way.  Warriors deserve warriors not underlings.

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
::Can't help but agree with the FCO.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
OPS:  You know, you're not doing all that bad.  So what did you have in mind for our social engagement?

Host SM_Pam says:
<Gov_Rakl> COM: Triton: CO: Q`Apla K`Vas. We await you.

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
CEO:  I am sure...is not that you see such things every day.  I stand corrected I guess.  Thank you Commander.

CMO_LtJG_Latta says:
FCO:  In just a minute.  CTO: You are free too ::Snaps slightly as she doesn't care to be rushed or ignored.::

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
COM: Governor: ghIj qet jaghmeyjaj , we will arrive on schedule.

ACTION: The Klingons close the comm to the Triton

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
CSO:  I am happy that I could help.

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
CEO:  Me too, well I guess that excludes sabotage.  Well I guess I can rest my case.

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
::Walks out on the bridge.::  XO:  Status report, commander.

OPS_Ens_Salan says:
::Makes a minor course correction.::

CMO_LtJG_Latta says:
::Walks to the FCO.::  FCO:  What is the problem.  No one informed me that one of you were ill.

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
::Gets out of turbo lift and enters bridge.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CO:   We are en route to H'atoria.  Three days away.  Polo and Randolph are attempting to get information on the ion storm.  Meadows is still in sickbay getting his physical.  And OPS is covering for Meadows while he gets his physical.

FCO_LtCmdr_Meadows says:
CMO:  My stomach is all knotted.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CO:  And Commander Ray has just returned I see.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CTO:  I trust all is well with you?

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
::Hears the XO and clears his voice.::

CMO_LtJG_Latta says:
FCO:  That shouldn't take a minute to fix.  ::Goes to her medical storage and prepares a hypo for his nausea.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CSO:  You have something Lieutenant?

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
XO:  Excellent.  Governor Rakl is honored that a Klingon has been sent to lead this mission.  As long as he is honored and things are glorious the phaser fire should stay at a minimal

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
XO:  Ready to take my post, anything going on?

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CO:  That is good, Captain.  Today is not a good day to die for me.

OPS_Ens_Salan says:
::Thinks the XO is looking forward to their date from that statement.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CTO:  Take your station, Commander.  The Captain has made contact with the Governor of H'atoria.  It sounds like things will go smoothly for us for a change.

ACTION:  Commander Meadow's stomach decides that having knots is not a good thing and as the doctor is in the line of fire, she is soon covered in the Commander's breakfast.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
::Looks back over at OPS, wondering why he didn't respond about their social engagement on the holodeck, but decides to dismiss it for now.::

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
XO:  Is the new doctor earning her passage yet?

FCO_LtCmdr_Meadows says:
::Swipe his mouth.::  CMO: Sorry.

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
::Thinks is not wise to interrupt the XO and turns back to his console calling up the scans from gravimetrics.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CO:  I would think she is being broken in quite well, Captain.

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
XO:  Yes, sir.  ::Takes post.::

CMO_LtJG_Latta says:
FCO:  Not the first time.  ::Smiles and injects the FCO with something to cure him.::  Is that better?

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
::Looks back over at Rico.::  CSO:  Rico, did you have anything for me?

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
::Growls something about doctors needing to be jettisoned at the earliest convenience.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CO:  Oh, and Captain.  You're due for your physical.  Please report to sickbay.

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
::Heard the growl from the captain and knows what is in store for the poor CMO.::

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
XO:  Oh nothing, Sam, just that maybe I am being too paranoid, but I don't like the fact we have no records whatsoever about the passengers. It doesn't sound right. Well maybe I should have expected that.  ::Raises his eyebrows resigned.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CSO:  Well, there isn't much we can do about it anyway.  An order's an order, right?  ::Gives him a wink.::

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
::Smirks.::  XO:  You will find I had my physical commander the files are in the ships database.  The doctor was very thorough.

FCO_LtCmdr_Meadows says:
CMO:  Yes, I'm feeling better.

FCO_LtCmdr_Meadows says:
CMO:  Thanks, Doc.

OPS_Ens_Salan says:
::Wonders if the CO will have to get one regardless like he did.::

CMO_LtJG_Latta says:
FCO:  No, problem.  Aside from that your reading say you are fine.  Go on back to duty and come back immediately if the symptoms reoccur.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CO:  I don't think so, Captain.  She was quite clear on who was due for physicals, and your name is on the list.  So, ::whispers:: don't be scared.  Just go get it over with.

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
::Raises his hands resigned and nods his head to the XO's remark.::  XO:  As usual.

FCO_LtCmdr_Meadows says:
::Slides of the bed and heads back to the bridge.::

OPS_Ens_Salan says:
::Sends the XO a message.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
::Grins at the CSO as another message pops up on her console.  Messages back and chuckles .. Social Engagement..  Smiles at him.::

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
XO:  Strange Dr. Sheridan assured me that my records would be updated.  ::Waits for it to sink in.::

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
::Looks at the XO and has a very bad thought, then shakes his head.::  Self:  None of your business, this time you stay out of it!

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CTO:  Anything unusual happen in sickbay, Commander?  Meadows is taking an awful long time to get back.

OPS_Ens_Salan says:
::Messages back; I hope you like Alaska.::

CMO_LtJG_Latta says:
::Runs into her office and locks the door and strips out of her uniform quickly.::  Computer: Please replicate one medical uniform for LtJG Latta.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CO:  It appears not, Captain.  Why not go set her straight though?  ::Grins at him, as her console beeps yet again.  Messages back .. sounds lovely.::

FCO_LtCmdr_Meadows says:
::Steps back onto the bridge.::

OPS_Ens_Salan says:
::Messages back; Hope you like Italian food too.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
::Notices the FCO returning.::  OPS:  Well, it looks like your relief is back.

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
XO:  Nothing so far, everything turned  out fine.

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
XO:  I will.  Please inform the doctor that any discrepancies can be taken up with VADM Sheridan

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CTO:  Looks like he's back.  ::Smells something funny as the FCO walks past, wondering what the doctor did to him, but then deciding she doesn't want to know.::

CMO_LtJG_Latta says: ***
::Grabs the new uniform from the replicator and quickly changes, tossing the soiled one into the trash.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CO:  Well if you're on your way, Captain, can't you explain that to her?

FCO_LtCmdr_Meadows says:
::Moves back into his seat.::

OPS_Ens_Salan says:
::Stands up.::  FCO:  All yours Commander, by the way I made a slight course correction. Nothing major, just something you overlooked.

OPS_Ens_Salan says:
::Winks at the XO on his way back to his seat and sits down.::

FCO_LtCmdr_Meadows says:
OPS:  Thank you, Ensign.

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
::Messages the CMO "Captain on his way I think, put the plate armor on."::

ACTION:  An incoming message to the Triton from a Federation satellite relays ion storms for the next three days in the vicinity of H`atoria.  Condition extreme threat.

OPS_Ens_Salan says:
FCO: Anytime.

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
XO:  My duties forbid it currently.  Can’t be having a physical in front of the Klingons.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
::Gets the message about Italian food.::  Self:  Yum.

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
::Reads the message.::  Self:  Well at least we have good sensors now.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CO:  Wait, are you saying you are not going down to sickbay to get your physical?  We are not around Klingons yet, Captain.

CMO_LtJG_Latta says:
::Smiles as she reads the message.::

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
::Types again to the CMO "Maybe not, but if there are so many ion storms around prepare a lot of remedy against space sickness".::

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
XO: The physical is secondary to the mission.

OPS_Ens_Salan says:
XO:  Ma'am, Federation satellite relays ion storms for the next three days near our destination.  Condition extreme threat.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CO:  Captain, we have 3 days to reach H'atoria.  I think there's time.  You're not .. afraid .. are you?

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
::Nods to OPS.::  OPS:  Aye, Ensign.  Thank you.

OPS_Ens_Salan says:
::Looks at the CO, wondering if he has lost his nerve.::

CMO_LtJG_Latta says:
::Types back to the CSO "Guess we already had one, but thanks for the warning.  Dinner  later?::

OPS_Ens_Salan says:
XO:  Anytime.

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
XO:  Klingons fear nothing.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CO:  Captain, suggest going to yellow alert.  Extreme weather threats for the next three days.

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
XO:  Agreed.

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
CTO:  Yellow alert.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CTO:  Take us to yellow alert, Commander.

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
::Types "Sure, I'd say first fencing class before, just to consume calories.  If the storms spare us.  Terran medieval sword sounds exciting to you?"::

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
::Walks over to Commander Meadows.::  FCO:  You were down there an awful long time.  You okay?

CMO_LtJG_Latta says:
::Types "Sounds fantastic, see you after shift."::

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
::Takes the ship into yellow alert.::

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
XO:  Stellar cartography should be able to warn us well in advance of any incoming storm.  Want me to feed the data directly to Helm, commander?

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
*Engineering*:  Level ten force field around the warp core.  Class 10 ion storms in area for next several days.  Make sure all damage control teams are at their assigned areas immediately.  Bring online fusion reactors 8, 9, 10, on line for backups.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CTO:  You may want to calibrate your tactical sensors to accommodate for the ion storms, Commander.

FCO_LtCmdr_Meadows says:
XO:  Yes, Sir, just something I ate didn't agree with me.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CSO:  Aye, and relay that information to tactical as well.

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
::Types "it's a deal, big hulking swords are on me."::

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
FCO:  Are you okay to return to duty, Commander?

OPS_Ens_Salan says:
::Sends another message to the XO; Do you like to dance?::

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
*All Hands*:  Prepare for rough weather, incoming ion storm.

FCO_LtCmdr_Meadows says:
XO:  I was cleared for duty.

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
CO:  Shields are up and ready to run, most likely through some hazards of the storms.

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
XO:  Will do, ma'am, will do.   *Stellar Cartography*:  Guys, stormy weather ahead.  Please start mapping all the ionic disturbances as soon as they appear on sensors.  I need to know strength, sizes and projected path.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
::Walks over to OPS.::  OPS:  Monitor any communications in the area.  ::Whispers.::  I do, but I don't think we should mix business with pleasure right now, Ensign.  We're on duty.

FCO_LtCmdr_Meadows says:
::Turns back to his console and prepares for the captains order.::

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
<Ens. Saunders> *CEO*:  Ready down here, sir.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
::Nods to the FCO.::

OPS_Ens_Salan says:
::Begins monitoring communications.::  XO:  You got it, Ma'am.

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
XO:  Storm front in seven hours, close all hatches, and wear your slick suit sailors!!!

CMO_LtJG_Latta says:
::Starts preparing space sickness remedies.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
::Grins at OPS and then turns her attention to the CSO.::  CSO: Thank you, Lt. Polo.

OPS_Ens_Salan says:
::Peeks at the XO as she turns her back to him.::

CSO_Lt_Polo says:
::Types to CMO "storm front in arrival, I will be needed on the bridge, may I take a Ion Check?"::

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
XO:  Engineering is ready and all damage teams to assigned areas.

Host CO_Captain_K`Vas says:
CEO:  Bring extra reactors online.  We don’t want to end up in the same condition of vessel we have been sent to rescue.

Host XO_Cmdr_Sommers says:
CEO:  Acknowledged, Commander Randolph.

CEO_LtCmdr_Randolph says:
CO:  Already have three of them online and hot standby, Sir.

CMO_LtJG_Latta says:
::Types back, just give me a call.::

CTO_LtCMDR_Ray says:
CO:  I am hoping that we don't become a victim of the ion storms ourselves.
