Deep Space 102 Mission Transcript - 10912.18

Last time on DS102...

The crew was ordered to escort the Deja'Wu delegates back to their home world, as well as a contingent of delegates from the Federation.

But, and there is always a but, there is something else they have been ordered to do.

Starker asked the crew to perform an undercover mission to establish if rumors about the "Cardassian Connection" with the Deja'Wu are true.

Did they do this before? Let's see if that true...

::Steps out of the turbolift onto the Scorpius Bridge and heads for the tactical station::
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
:: in his Ready Room ::
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::sitting in his seat on the Bridge of the Scorpius::
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CTO: Commander.... ::nods::
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
::Gets a status update from the TO, then takes over at tactical::
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
::Looks over at the XO and nods:: XO: Sir...
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CTO: Twenty minutes out Commander. Are you ready for this?
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::whatever "this" is, that is::
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
XO: Ready as I can be, considering...
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
::paces around the Bridge::
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
Action: Something turns on inside one cargo crate inside Cargo Bay 1 in DS102. It goes unnoticed for the sensor grid.
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
SC: Sir, we'll be there soon enough. We're as ready as we're going to be.
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
XO: ::nods::
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
::goes to the CO's Ready Room and rings the door chime::
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
::wonders why the CO didn't respond and rings the door chime again::
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
::Taps the console scanning the area::
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
Self: Huh!
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
*SC*: Enter!
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
XO: Long range scans are clear, Sir.
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
::enters the room:: CO: Captain, is this a bad time?
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CTO: Thanks....  :: can't help the feeling that this is going all too quietly::
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
SC: Hum, no. I was just reading but I am finding it difficult to concentrate today
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CTO: Are you picking up any communications? We should be picking up a lot from their planet.
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
Action: The Scorpius REACHES the Deja'Wu world. One Space Flight Control Post salutes the ship.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
XO: Uhh... I wasn't monitoring the comms, Sir.
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
@<Crat'o> COM: Scorpius: This is Deja'Wu Orbit Control. You must set stationary orbit now.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
<FCO> XO: We have reached the coordinates, Sir.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
<OPS> ::Wonders why the XO asked the CTO about communications:: XO: Nothing unusual on the comm channels, Sir.  Just the usual space chatter.
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
CO: Captain, I was thinking, having in mind the nature of our mission, that the Counselor's emphatic skills will be perfect for the job. If we need to perform some sort of field operation, I think we release the Counselor from her protocol duties and include her in the operation.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
<OPS> COM: Crat'o: Acknowledged.  XO: Sir, the home world is requesting that we assume a stationary orbit.
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
SC: Well I was thinking of making a group or two to beam down to the planet and visit some random location plus a list of important places so to get their impressions and evaluations
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
@<Crat'o>: COM: Scorpius: Welcome to the Deja'Wu world. Have a nice stay.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
<FCO> XO: Setting stationary orbit, Sir.  ::Taps the console::
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
CO: Yes, and we should not start in the Vito's region. We shouldn't cause any suspicions if they are really hiding some sort of plot with the Cardassians. We must leave that for the last. What do you think?
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
SC: Without avoiding it altogether, I think it can be something else than the first visit, but I do plan on meeting any political opposition or membership opponent to have their arguments
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
Action: Deja'Wu Protocolar Director contacts the ship.
Susan says:
::returns to the Bridge::
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
FCO: Good job Ensign. Just make sure we're not a target
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
<Krik'o> COM: Scorpius: This is the Protocolar Direction of Deja'Wu. I'm Krik'o First Secretary. Can I speak to your Captain?
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
<OPS> XO: Sir, incoming transmission from the Protocolar Director of the Deja'Wu home world.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
<OPS> COM: Krik'o: Please hold....
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
OPS: Hold for the Captain.
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
CO: That's logical. Anyway, I still think Admiral Starker did not tell us everything. Very well, let's see when we are on the surface. Thanks for your time, Captain. ::stands and exits the Ready Room::
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
*CO*: Captain, we've got the Protocolar on the line here...
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
*CO/SC*: Sirs, incoming transmission from Krik'o, the First Secretary of the Deja'Wu home world.
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
@<Krik'o> ::thinks:: Great... I'm on hold....
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
*XO*: I'm coming to the Bridge
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
:: walk out of his Ready Room ::
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
<OPS> CO: Shall I put it on the view screen, Sir?
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
Com: Krik'o: Just a minute Protocolar, the Captain will be right with you.
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
XO: You have who on the line?
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
@<Krik'o> ::whistles a Deja'Wu tune::
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CO: Protocolar Krik'o, Sir
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
OPS: Onscreen
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
<OPS> ::Taps the console activating the view screen::
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
::Looks up from the tactical console to the image on the view screen::
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
COM: Krik'o: Captain Yo'Ghi of the USS Scorpius, how may I help you?
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand says:
::listens to everything going on around her::
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
@<Krik'o> CO: Captain Yo'ghi, I am pleased to welcome you to our World. It is such an honor. ::smiles:: We are so glad to have you as our guest, that we all feel like we know you from before.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
::Thinks: Before what?::
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
COM: Krik'o: The crew of the Scorpius is honored to be escorting your delegation back to your home world and look forward to our visit
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
@<Krik'o> CO: I wanted to inform you that we are finishing the preparations to receive your delegates. Will you be using your vessels to transport to the surface?
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
COM: Krik'o: Unless it is a problem, we were going to use transporters
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
::hears the CO talking with Krik'o:: CNS: ::whispers:: Talk about unnecessary redundant chat...
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand says:
::nods:: SC: For some, it is necessary
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
@<Krik'o> CO: Anyway, a Council shuttle has been dispatched to rendezvous. I understand the delegates want to visually visit one of our orbital control facilities. ETA is three minutes.
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
@<Krik'o> CO: That would be all from me, Captain. If you do not mind I will contact our delegates in your ships through our own communication network. Again, it is a pleasure to have you here. Krik'o out. ::cuts the comm::
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
Action: A small Deja'Wu VIP vessel approaches to the Scorpius.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
CO: A small vessel approaching our coordinates, Sir.
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
CTO: That is our tour shuttle coming in; give the shuttle bay the ok for approach
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
CO: Aye, Sir.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
::Taps the console alerting the shuttle bay::
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
CO/XO: I guess we should inform the Delegates.
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CTO: Commander, get a team down there on the double.
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
SC: They are being contacted by their own people but you can tell them that the shuttle will be ready in five minutes
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
XO: Already done, Sir.
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CTO: Good work!
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
::Thinks: Naturally...::
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
<Deja 'Wu Diplomat> *CO*: Captain, thanks for your hospitality. As you may already know, we will continue our visit in our own vessel.
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
*Dip*: I was expecting one or more of your delegation to be accompanying us on our tour
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
<Deja 'Wu Diplomat> *CO*: We will be glad if someone of your crew joins your delegation. I already inform your to the head of your Delegation, that that would be an honor for us.
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::wonders how the diplomat knew, then realized they were using their own comm system::
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
<Action> The Deja'Wu vessel is ready for departure. Both DELEGATIONS are onboard. Still waiting for the Scorpius crew member to join them.
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
>Deja'Wu Diplomat> *CO*: Well, Captain, what do you say? It will be an interesting tour indeed.
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
*Dip*: My crew is coming down right now
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
SC/XO/CNS/CTO: People, to the shuttle
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
::nods and heads to the TL::
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand says:
::nods and moves toward the lift::
