Summary: Last week on the Triton, the crew met an alien being that was rather strange. He talked of past moments and such. Almost like riddles and gave a warning to leave.

Fearing they had nothing else to loss, the crew destroyed the station in the hopes of exploding the Kemocite located somewhere on the station. All they managed to do was watch it fall apart without a BIG BOOM.

In the ships database there was told of a refinery located in the Niburon system. Lets hope the answers they are looking for will be found there.

This week, we begin with the Triton just arriving into the Niburon system. The bubble surrounding them will pass through the system in 2 hours. Hope it's enough time.

We now join our crew in the next exciting chapter of- “Shore Leave?”

Chapter 5-“Lifelessness”

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:

::Grabbing her coffee cup she exits the ready room and steps back onto the bridge.::  XO:  Report.

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

::At station on the bridge, monitoring the planet on scans to look for kemocite deposits.::

CTO_Lt_Wall says:

::sits at Tac::

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

CO: Ten minutes to our destination sir

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:

XO:  And the null space?

CTO_Lt_Wall says:

::winks at the XO::

CTO_Lt_Wall says:

::reviews the sensor data::

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

CO: The edge of the bubble is now visible

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:
SO:  ETA to the edge of the bubble?  ::Takes her seat::

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

CO:  Well, the good news is I'm picking up the planet on scans.  ::Pauses.::  But bad news is that I can't scan for anything that's there, just a landscape.  Perhaps if we took a shuttle and got closer the scans would be more detailed, although I can't guarantee that.

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

SO: How long till the planet is outside of the bubble?

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

CO/XO:  2 Hours until it passes the planet.

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:

::Sighs::  All:  Not much time......

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

CO:  But then there's always the refinery that we have the coordinates for.  I hope it's still there.

CTO_Lt_Wall says:

CO: Have to hustle and grab the Kemocite and get the hell outta dodge

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

CTO:  Agreed on that one.

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:

SO:  I hope so to, otherwise we get to live here for the rest our of lives.

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

CO:  Which will probably be 2 hours, I'm guessing.  ::Cringes.::

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:

XO:  Mark, ok you got your orders...let's get that Kemocite.

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

OPS/SO: Okay let’s get drill equipment and scanning equipment as fast as possible. Then meet me on the shuttle.

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:

SO:  How do we activate the Kemocite?  The null space is sucking the life of it.

CTO_Lt_Wall says:

XO: I`ll send a Tac team with you boss

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

XO:  Already have it ready, Commander.  I'll have it beamed to the shuttlebay.  ::Sends the message to the science teams to send the equipment.::

OPS_Lt_Gaeb says:

XO: The equipment is already down in shuttle bay, we should be anle top board as we get there

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

CO:  Kemocite actually has explosive properties.  We can perhaps beam it out into space, and detonate a torpedo at it.

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

CTO: Remember that the weapons will start to drain down there. Make sure standard issue knife are supplied

CTO_Lt_Wall says:

XO: Will do boss

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:

SO:  And that would be different from the station how?  ::She stands up and turns to the SO still drinking her coffee::

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

::stands up and heads to the turbolift:: SO/OPS: Lets go people

CTO_Lt_Wall says:

::relays the orders to the MARDET and tells them to meet the XO in the shuttlebay::

OPS_Lt_Gaeb says:

:: follow the XO ::

Host JonB says:

<AFCO>  CO: We are approaching the planet.

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

CO:  We would be closer to the point of the kemocite explosion, and if we don't blow ourselves up, we may actually get a free ride too.  Anyway, the kemocite on the station was shielded by all the station walls.  So I'm guessing the direct explosion may make a different, but can't say for certain.  I don't have any other solutions, unfortunately.

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:

AFCO:  Standard orbit.....

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

::Stands up, and waits for the CO to dismiss her to go with OPS and the XO.::

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:

SO:  Ok, so get lots of Kemocite because we may have to do this a few times.

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

::Nods to her.::  CO:  May I be excused then, Captain?

Host JonB says:

<AFCO>  CO: Aye ma’am.  ::places the ship in standard orbit::

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:

SO:  Of course

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

::Salutes the Captain, and heads to the TL with the XO and OPS.::
Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

SO: Lets go 

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

::Goes with the XO.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

TL: Shuttlebay

CTO_Lt_Wall says:

*XO*: Marines have been dispatched and will meet you at the shuttle

Host JonB says:

Action: The TL stops at the shuttle bay.

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

*CTO*: Acknowledge and good work lieutenant

CTO_Lt_Wall says:

*XO*: Take care boss

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:

*XO*:   Happy hunting Commander.

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

SO/OPS: Okay once we get down to the planet, we have no time to waste. So make sure we double time it.

CTO_Lt_Wall says:

::brings the main viewer online and focuses on the approaching bubble::

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

XO:  Yes, Sir.

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:

CTO:  Scan the bubble...is it alive?

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

::Exits the TL and heads for the shuttle, noticing her team already put the equipment onboard.::

CTO_Lt_Wall says:

::begins scanning the bubble for life signs::

CTO_Lt_Wall says:

CO: Skipper the sensors don’t show any lifesigns, sensors don’t show anything beyond the bubble

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

XO:  We're all set, Sir.  Science Equipment is aboard.

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

XO/OPS:  So who's flying this thing?

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

::moves into the shuttle and start prelaunch::

OPS_Lt_Gaeb says:

:: walks in the shuttle and get the ops station ::

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

::Sits down at Science preparing her station.::

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

OPS/SO: We all set to go?

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

XO:  Ready, Commander.

OPS_Lt_Gaeb says:

XO: All systems read go

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:

CTO:  How is the power Lieutenant?

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

XO:  Let's just hope the power to our shuttle doesn't go out before we get back to the Triton, Sir.

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

*CTO*: Bridge shuttle 3 requesting clearance

CTO_Lt_Wall says:

CO: Dropping steadily skipper

CTO_Lt_Wall says:

*XO*: Clearance given, good luck and good hunting

CTO_Lt_Wall says:

CO: Shuttles have been cleared

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

Self:  I sure hope that kemocite is still there.

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

::opens the shuttlebay doors and launches the shuttle::

Host JonB says:

Action: The Shuttle leaves the Triton shuttle bay into open space.

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

@XO:  We have cleared the Triton, Sir.

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

@OPS/SO: I want continuous checks of the shuttle systems

OPS_Lt_Gaeb says:

@XO: Aye sir

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

@::takes the shuttle toward the planet::

CTO_Lt_Wall says:

::keeps the shuttles on sensors::

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

@XO:  Aye, Science is working fine, Sir, for now.

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

@XO/OPS:  ETA to the refinery, 5 minutes.

OPS_Lt_Gaeb says:

@XO: Sir, may I ask why the drilling equipment? Won’t it be some of it in the refinery stores?

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

@SO/OPS: When we are 1 minute from contact I want you two to start getting your equipment ready to go

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

@OPS:  You are "assuming" there is kemocite that has been mined.  I'm prepared for the worst case scenario.

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

@XO:  After all, would be a waste of time to go down there and not have the equipment and find out we need it, right?

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

@OPS/SO: It just be ready for anything people, we don't have the time not to be

CTO_Lt_Wall says:

::wacthes the bubble draw closer on the viewer::

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:

::Hands her coffee cup to her yeoman.::

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

@XO:  One minute.

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

@SO: What is it?

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

@XO:  One minute to ETA, Sir.

CTO_Lt_Wall says:

CO: The shuttles are approaching the landing zone

Host JonB says:

<Yeoman>  ::drops the cup on the CO::

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

@OPS/SO: Oh get ready you two

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

@XO:  I can see the refinery coming up, Sir.

OPS_Lt_Gaeb says:

@XO: Ready when you are sir

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:

::Glares at the yeoman.::  Yeoman:  Got the dropsey's today?

Host JonB says:

<Yeoman>CO: I’m so sorry ma’am.  I’m just a little scared with all this ::pointing to the viewscreen::

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

@::Heads to the back of the shuttle.::  OPS:  If we don't need the equipment, we can always leave it on the planet.

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:
@::starts his final approach to the landing pad::

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:

::Smiles:: Yeoman:  I understand.  I'm scared to, but we will get out of it I promise.  ::Thinks to herself "one way or another"::

Host JonB says:

<Yeoman> CO: Will there be anything else.

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:

Yeoman:  Not at the moment.. Do you have any family on board?

Host JonB says:

Action: The shuttle settles down with bearly a nudge.

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:
@XO:  Good landing, Sir!

Host JonB says:

<Yeoman> CO: No ma’am, it's just me  ::looks at the CTO and winks::

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

@::start to shutdown systems:: OPS/SO: Go without me I'll catch up

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:

::Smiles::  Yeoman:  Why don't you go down and stay will my children?  I can't be there but I'd be grateful if you can be?

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

@::Looks to OPS for advice on leaving the XO unattended.::

CTO_Lt_Wall says:

CO: Shuttles are down

OPS_Lt_Gaeb says:

@XO: Aye sir

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

@Whispers to OPS:  We leaving him behind?

OPS_Lt_Gaeb says:

@:: get up and walk to the exit ::

Host JonB says:

<Yeoman> CO: Oh yes captain  i would love to. ::turns and leaves but not without looking again at  the CTO and smiles at him::

OPS_Lt_Gaeb says:

@SO: You heard the commander, cadet, we have no time to waste, let's go

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

@OPS:  Aye, Sir.  ::Follows the Operations Officer out in search of the kemocite that she hopes is there.::

CTO_Lt_Wall says:

::looks at the Yeoman and goes back to his work::

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

@::stands up and moves to the back, grabbing some equipment::

OPS_Lt_Gaeb says:

@SO: I picked up the plans of the refinery, we should be able to find the cargo area in no time

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

@::Holds up her scanner and begins to scan the area of the refinery.::

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

@OPS:  Good thinking!  You lead the way.  I'll follow.  ::Smiles at him.::

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

@OPS:  By the way, scanners show nothing, but I suspected as much.

CTO_Lt_Wall says:

::watches the sensor feeds::

OPS_Lt_Gaeb says:

@:: follows what he believes to be the path to the refined kemocite ::

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

@::start to run to catch up to the OPS and SO::

Host JonB says:

Action: The path leads them to front of one of the storage buildings.

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:

::Taps her combadge::  *XO*:  You get the stuff yet?

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

@*CO*: Standby sir

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

@OPS:  Want me to open the door, Sir?

CTO_Lt_Wall says:

CO: 1 hour 8 minutes till the bubble reaches us

OPS_Lt_Gaeb says:

@SO: Yes, but let us not be standing right in front, just in case

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:

CTO:  What no seconds?????

OPS_Lt_Gaeb says:

@SO: See if those door controls still work

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

@OPS/SO: Why are you staring at the door open it!

CTO_Lt_Wall says:

CO: 45

CTO_Lt_Wall says:

CO: now 43

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

@::Steps up to the door control and pushes it waiting to see if it opens.::

Host JonB says:

@Action: Nothing happens.

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:

::turns to the Lieutenant::  CTO:  Funny Sir, funny.... now wait for my revenge...it is forthcoming.

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

@Out loud:  Oh for crying out loud.  ::Grabs the door handle and yanks it to see if it opens.::

CTO_Lt_Wall says:

CO: Yes my captain

Host JonB says:

Action: Still nothing happens, the handle will not move.

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

@OPS:  Wanna put your weight into it?

OPS_Lt_Gaeb says:

XO: I'll get a power module from the shuttle to power up that door

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

@SO: I got a better idea.

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

@Marines: Blow it open

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

@::Steps away from the XO and the door.::

CTO_Lt_Wall says:

@<Marine> XO: Aye sir

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

@Thinks to self:  Finally, a big strong marine!

CTO_Lt_Wall says:

@<Marine> :: moves to door and places the charge::

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

@Marine:  I guess we should move?

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

@::Steps away from the charge.::

CTO_Lt_Wall says:

@<Marine>All: Fire in the hole ::blows the charge::

Host JonB says:

Action: The door is blown completely off the wall.

OPS_Lt_Gaeb says:

@XO: I'm glad there was nothing flammable or explosive behind that door

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

@OPS/SO; Okay let’s go

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

@OPS:  Yeah, big bada boom otherwise.

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:

CTO:  How hard is it to get a couple grams of Kemocite?

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

@OPS:  You got the map-quest directions?

CTO_Lt_Wall says:

CO: Apparently very hard

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

::heads into he storage area::

OPS_Lt_Gaeb says:

XO/SO: This way..... I think

Host JonB says:

@Action: As the team walk in they see what looks like a huge stock pile of kemocite in the middle of the room.

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

@Out loud:  JACKPOT!

OPS_Lt_Gaeb says:

@SO: Careful cadet

Host XO_Cmdr_Arca says:

@::grabs a few storage containers:: OPS/SO: Grab what you can

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

@::Grabs a container and starts stuffing it with the kemocite, grumbling to herself about this not being a woman's job.::

Host JonB says:

@Action: The SO breaks a nail.

SO_Cadet_Tierney says:

@Out loud:  Dammit!

Host JonB says:
