Cmdr. M. Morgensen :
::AA::
Happens to the best of us, Captain.
I believe we have everyone accounted for?
Laurel Lance :
::AA::
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Crew is at attention, Captain. ::attn::
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
Has everyone read the brief? Questions pertaining to tonight's sim?
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Yes, and no.
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
We're good here.
Ens. Langsbury :
Read, no questions
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
::AA:: No questions
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
None here
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
Okay then... Commander you know what to do.
Cmdr. M. Morgensen :
None from me.
Computer :
Let us begin!
Ens. Langsbury :
Jehane--does her work but still gets three wax dolls out of her pocket in the down times and repeatedly pokes them with old hat pins
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
::still at the Tactical console since Magnus left::
Cmdr. M. Morgensen :
$ ::Currently in the Wellness Center, pacing back and forth.:: +Phoenix+ Morgensen to the Captain... I need to speak to you in the Wellness Center immediately...
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
::his face is still a little ashen after his latest vision::
Lieutenant Heather Argeneau :
::Heather watched Morgensen pace back and forth the way he was doing right now and worrying at her lower lip.::
Laurel Lance :
::wonder how to help with deciphering the visions::
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
::glances at Jehane:: I hope that none of those dolls represent me the way you're poking them!
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
::Going over the data on her padd and station:: Captain, we still don't have enough of the Tanzanite on the ship. We have to go to Earth and try to find more. ::Said, almost in defeat:: If we can get there.
Ens. Langsbury :
Ari--at Ops, keeping track of the State of Affairs of the ship: power management and the like being priority
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
+Morgensen+Now? I will be there as soon as I can.
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
::listens in on the Klingon activity:: They're Klingons, but they're planning a covert operation to assassinate someone? That can't be right.
Ens. Langsbury :
Jehane-- no, Kirsten, you're safe
Lieutenant Felicity Smoke :
We'll get there.
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
::looks over at Maud:: I vas tinking ze same ting.
It isn't Klingon like, no?
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
::turns to Kai::: We will figure this out. Wait, can you not recreate from the fresh tanzanite in your lab?
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
::dramatically wipes her forehead:: whew! Had me worried there for a sec.
Cmdr. M. Morgensen :
$ ::Lets out a sigh as he noticed his blood pressure rising again.:: ... I haven't fed recently...
Laurel Lance :
Well, it isn't like OUR Klingons.
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
No. Klingons are warriors, not assassins.
So, what if we have it all wrong?
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
I am afraid not, Captain. It's found only on Earth and we don't have the elements on the ship to recreate it. If it were diamonds or emeralds, that would be easy.
Lieutenant Heather Argeneau :
::Heather looked to Morgensen as he said this,:: Really? and you chose now to tell me this after calling the Captain here? ::Heather walked over to the cooler to grab a blood bag and tossed it to him,:: Try and drink that before she gets here so we don't terrify her love.
Ens Juglans Regia :
:: At the helm ::
Ens. Langsbury :
Jehane-- sounds like these Klingons are more akin to our Romulans
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
What if the Klingons here are, for example, the Romulans back home. Everything switched about their personalities, cultures, battle strategies, you name it.
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
Kai I will think about this. In the mean time I need to see what is so urgent in the wellness center with Mr. Morgensen.
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
What about the ... um ... well ... I saw blood. I haven't figured out how that plays into things, but ... Hawk doesn't give visions that aren't connected. It's just that I have to figure out the connections.
Lt JG Laurel Lance :
May I suggest we send a shuttle for the tanzenite? A smaller ship may have a better chance of getting there.
Cmdr. M. Morgensen :
$ ::Looking at the bag in his hands, turning it over a few times.:: ... She has to know, Heather... we can tell her a dozen times and she'll just think we're crazy... I know no better way to convince her of the truth than to show her.
Ens Juglans Regia :
:: Monitoring local subspace ::
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
Captain, may I come with you?
Computer :
::while the ship continued on towards earth long range sensors would show the placing of the alpha quadrant ships to they can watch them in case anyone breaks off again. however, long-range sensors would also notice several spacial displacements.::
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
Come along Counselor maybe this will give some insight.
Queen you have the bridge.
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
I don't like this. I feel like we're fish in a barrel, and those guys have a big ole' shotgun pointed right at us. ::crosses her arms and continues the radio monitoring::
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
::stands and follows the Captain::
Lieutenant Heather Argeneau :
::Heather gave a nod:: I guess so. ::Heather sighed.::
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
::looks around the Bridge:: So ... I am senior officer, yes? I am in command?
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
::enters the lift with Adon::
Ens. Langsbury :
Jehane-- so maybe we need to hide behind the other fish
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
Oh good lord, why leave pighead in charge?
We ARE the other fish!
Laurel Lance :
::smiles a little at Adonudo:: I am sure we can figure that out too
Ens Juglans Regia :
:: The navigation computer handled a lot of the adjustments, as they could be too frequent for a person to handle ::
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
Unless, you're thinking about the Romulans
Hide behind the Romulans. Make them think we're on their side?
But what's the difference between the Romulans and the Klingons at this point?
Ens. Langsbury :
Jehane-- now you get it Kirsten
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
This is a fine kettle of fish. This should have been a smooth transitions Adon.
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
Maud, there is static in ze comm channel, yes? I have tried to filter, but ... could it be another signal?
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
I'm still here, but at least you thought about it, Targus.
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
Agreed, Captain. We were transferring an existing crew to a new ship. It should have been easy.
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
Hey, little fish on our sensors. Ships?
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
::grunts at Ollie:: So, you vere avake, then. Too bad, yes?
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Where at?
Ens. Langsbury :
Jehane-- probably let's just hope they're not piranhas(edited)
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
::Going over and over the data and coming up with the same equation. They had to go to Earth to get home, period. Or they would be stuck in this dimension, forever. She wasn't too thrilled with that idea, not even a little bit.::
Lt JG Laurel Lance :
::uses the engineering station to keep an eye on the ship::
Ens Juglans Regia :
:: Wonders where Lance has gotten to now. Watching the navigation could be mind-numbing at times ::
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
::works on the odd static:: Look here ... this static has pulses, no? Not random static ... it is signal, yes?
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
It seems nothing's been easy since I took command. ::pinched the bridge of her nose and the lift doors slid open::
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
Here, there's like...i don't know..fuzz? but i can see little dots inside of it, could be a storm or something but....it feels like too large of an area for just a storm. Y'know?
Lieutenant Felicity Smoke :
::Which she had left Laurel up on the Bridge for a reason to be her liaison to her down in Engineering::
Cmdr. M. Morgensen :
$ ::Turns towards the doors of the WC as the Captain entered, and was irritated to see Adon at her heels as he sorta juggled the blood bag in his hands.:: ... I wasn't expecting you to bring anyone with you, Captain...
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
Vell, ve know in our universe, ze Klingons got cloaking technology from Romulans, no? Maybe there is cloaked ships, yes?
Ens. Langsbury :
Jehane-- start running the static pulses through a tricorder using the old Morse code to see if she can get anything
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
::Puts stellar cartography on getting new scans on Earth in this dimension, to help better know what they were getting into.::
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
::enters wellness with Adon:: Magnus what is so urgent that you pulled me from the bridge.
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
That's what i was thinking. If there are cloaked ships...what if they "cloaked" their transmissions?
Ens. T. Queen / Lt. H. Argeneau :
::Thea was down in Engineering with Felicity trying to find something to do other than scanning the engines.::
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
::glances around, pleased at many of his old methods still in use, then sees the bag in Morgensen's hand:: So ... blood.
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
Hid it underneath the natural interference of that asteroid belt, or that gas giant over there.
Laurel Lance :
::relays information on the 'storm' from the bridge to Felicity down in Main Engineering::
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Transmissions are typically not heard by others unless we want them to anyway. Same goes for anyone else.
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
Or ze gravity wave of ze black hole, yes? That vould hide many tings, no?
Lieutenant Felicity Smoke :
Did you get that new information, Thea?
Lt JG Laurel Lance :
That would hide everything, wouldn't it?
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
Yes! See, you do have something reminiscent of a brain in that ugly head of yours!
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
::pulls up a database of reference signals to cross-reference::
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
He is here so what was so urgent Magnus. We are losing valuable time.
Computer :
::As Maud and Targus would focus their scans or work on the static of the messages they'll notice an underlying communication between them. They will also notice more cloaked ships of unknown origin.::
Cmdr. M. Morgensen :
$ ::Sighs gently.:: I think I know why my DNA was so special in these devices, and I know who the female counterpart is...
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
Yes, but there ARE radio signals that come off when we do transmissions, hidden or not. It's just so faint that you can't see it.
Lieutenant Heather Argeneau :
::Heather looked to the Captain and her former Chief and worried at her lower lip as she watched her husband.::
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
Lots of fishies.
Several fishies here and here. cloaked ships.
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
::Then looking at why certain DNA was also needed to make the crystals work. Normal tanzanite crystals weren't known for conducting power or creating it::
Ens. T. Queen / Lt. H. Argeneau :
::Thea looked to Smoke,:: Nothing new outside of what I gave on the bridge. The wormhole is becoming even more unstable on last readings I'm using long-range sensors to keep an eye on it for as long as possible.
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
Vait. That can't be. Ze signal is ... Suliban? But ... there aren't anymore Suliban, no?
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
((im gonna call any ships fish from now on, its happening))
Suliban? But...Archer got rid of them, right?
Did that not happen here?
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Or if there is something wrong.. Lets not reach out to them yet. Just try to monitor and confirm.
Laurel Lance :
::raises an eyebrow and passes this info to Felicity:: +Felicity+ Lance to engineering, We might want to get ready for possible damage.
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
$ I don't understand. What are you going on about.
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
::Frowning as she looks at all the different aspects, but missing some key information to plug into the equation::
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
Look, ze signal matches, vell, 80% match, but ... it is Suliban.
Ens. T. Queen / Lt. H. Argeneau :
Ensign Random> ::Looks up at that question.:: Wait but didn't we learn there aren't any starfleet ships here? how would Archer be able to take care of something in this time line that was taken care of in our time if there is no starfleet here?
Lieutenant Felicity Smoke :
We just got new information about the storm. And that's great. +Lance+ Got it.
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
::scoots over to Nikosh:: Look, isolate this frequency, and cut out that one. That's radioactive interference from the gas giant.
Ens. Langsbury :
Ari-- keeps on working in making sure the ship is in optimal condition in all areas
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
::works with Maud to clean up the signal::
Cmdr. M. Morgensen :
$ ::He looks to Heather and nods softly.:: I've never been one to hide, Captain... it's best I just... tell you and show you... Heather can explain it better than I can. I'm still new to this... ::He sighed, lifting the bag to his lips and letting his fangs pierce it, drinking slowly.::
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
Clean up this ::fiddles with the signal for a second:: umm...holy cow. Suliban.
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
::watches in utter shock as Magnus drinks the blood:: What are you -?
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Yellow alert. +Phoenix+ Confirmation as there being Suliban.
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
Huh. Hold on a moment. ::slides back to her station, pulling up any information about the Suliban she could find::
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
See! I told you! I am not Intelligence Officer for nothing, yes?
Cmdr. M. Morgensen :
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
and yet, your head still just holds dust in it. You might wanna polish it a bit
Computer :
::As the signature cleared they would find messages from the Suliban to both vulcan and Klingon manipulating them into this war and or assassination attempt. Current fedration knowledge was that the suliban had no patience for waiting on natural selection and preferred to take matters into their deceptive hands.::
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
::Muttering to herself:: What is so special about that particular DNA?
Ens Juglans Regia :
:: Glances at the yellow alert ::
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
Someting ... Alpha Quadrant ... someting ... Domination ... someting ... Klingon?
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
[Well we already were but reminder doesn't hurt]
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
i have shoe polish in my room, would you like some to try?
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
$::looks to Heather:: I'm waiting... ::Pinched the bridge of her nose::: now is not the time for surprises. What the hell does this have to do with our current situation? Mind you my patience is wearing.
Ens. Langsbury :
Jehane-- so the XO and CMO are real pains in the neck, business as usual, nothing new here
Laurel Lance :
:: boosts power to shields and gets ready for some really fun stuff::
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
they're telling the klingon to...oh! They're causing this war, so they don't have to wait for them to die off.
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
::still staring:: You ... you're a ... no, that can't be? They're not real ... are they?
Laurel Lance :
::Looks over at Targus:: What are you muttering about over there?
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
That can be used to our advantage. If that's right, we don't need to get in the middle of it anyway.
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
But ... Suliban? Archer took care of them, yes? But ... vhat if there vas no Archer?
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
The Suliban are taking over this sector of space, and pitting them against each other.
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
Vhat if ze Temporal Cold Var didn't go like it did in our universe, eh?
Lieutenant Heather Argeneau :
::Heather watched as Morgensen used his fangs to drain the blood.:: The DNA found on the crystals that powered it captain, I don't know why or how but I ran a spectral analysis of the DNA and it belongs to us. For some reason the nanites in our blood created an energy current in the crystals to get them to start. We're as human and alive as the next person but the nanites in our blood use up more than the human body can create and thus we need to feed on blood of others. though we can also live on synthetic blood much like Synthahol. ::Heather told them.::
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
A chameloid and now vampires? What the hell is going on?
Ens Juglans Regia :
:: Takes a deep breath ::
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
Vampires? In Starfleet? Our ... Chief of Security?
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
How? Klingons don't just trust a random person who tells them to fight, it's about honor, and respect, and GOOD battle.
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
My assistant Chief Medical Officer? Well ... now she's our Chief!
Cmdr. M. Morgensen :
$ ::Finishes off the pack and tosses it across the room, turning his back to the Captain and Adon.:: All the ghost stories have to come from some sort of truth, don't they, Adon? ::He sighed once more.:: My DNA is altered by the nanites that are native to Heather's physiology... it makes both of us unique. I... apologize for lying to you, but I can assure you we are harmless. Our secrecy is the key to avoiding people who would hunt us down and render us extinct. Heather already had a run-in with someone who made their way into Starfleet for the sole purpose of tracking her down when we were aboard the Aldrin. Almost killed her...
Lieutenant Heather Argeneau :
::Heather frowned:: we prefer immortals to vampires we're not exactly soulless you know we're still humans, well Atlanteans actually but still. ::Heather knew this wasn't the time to really explain.::
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Obviously it didn't if they are here. So all the more reason for us to not get in the middle. Just get this fixed and get home.
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
::Her frown deepens.:: Computer, where are Doctor Argeneau and Commander Morgensen? ::Getting an answer:: Commander, permission to leave the bridge. I need to go to the wellness center and speak to Doctor Argeneau, this is highly important.
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
So ... if Suliban means no Archer ... that vould mean ... no Federation?
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Of course, but make it fast, we may need you back up here if we engage.
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
So, who vill ve be talking to to get more of ze crystal, eh?
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
Or John Archer doesn't exist here.
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
Thank you, Commander. I will make it fast. ::Literally runs to the lift, already yelling for it to take her to sickbay, stat::
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Right. Or there was or is still Starfleet and its in shambles, hiding, doing with what they can get.
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
$::: throws her hands in the air and gives a nervous laugh and looks at Adon then back to Heather and Magnus::: this will stay between us and you can trust we will discuss this when we get out of this mess. In the mean time I want the blood in a vial and delivered to Kai immediately.
Laurel Lance :
And that would mean... everything is up for grabs by all the nasties that were stopped by the Federation.
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
$Do I make myself crystal clear?
Ens. Langsbury :
Jehane-- mutter's Softly about others aboard being pains in the neck without the sanguinary element As she Jabs a pin into another doll
Lieutenant Heather Argeneau :
::Heather gave a nod:: Crystal Clear Captain
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
::still exasperated ... flabbergasted! ... all them fancy words for surprised::
Cmdr. M. Morgensen :
$ ::Nodding gently, and sighing.:: As long as I can guarantee there will be no permanent records of the DNA beyond the necessities of it, Captain... the less people that know, the safer my wife and I will be.
Lieutenant Heather Argeneau :
::Heather looks to Adonudo and sees that he's flabbergasted and afraid and she takes an instinctive couple of steps away from him.::
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
::Tapping her foot as the lift carries her away to the medical deck and then runs out of the lift and to the wellness center, almost out of breath:: Oh, good, you are still here. ::To Heather and Magnus. Pausing a moment to catch her breath and her thoughts::
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
::mutters:: Once I was approached by a man claiming to be a vampire hunter. I thought he was crazy.
Maybe we wasn't so crazy after all. ::turns to leave::
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
$Magnus you're currently in no position to bargain with me. And if you don't trust me to keep my crew safe then us being on a ship together would be pointless wouldn't you say?
Laurel Lance :
Well, if the planet is now mostly water... just how are we going to find it?
Lieutenant Heather Argeneau :
::Heather looked up as Kai came in and reached for two empty vials and a hypo putting one empty one in and walking over to Morgensen to take some of his blood and then the same to herself she turned to hold the vials out to Kai,:: You'll need these.
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
::to Magnus and Heather:: I need to know why your DNA is needed to power these crystals. I can't ..... ::Stops, confused:: I'm missing something here.
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Modified shuttle. Delta flyers are the Mk2's and the Mk1's were modified to go under water. Probably going to have to do it that way.
Ens Juglans Regia :
:: Waving his hands over the controls as he maintains the navigation ::
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
Kai you don't need the details, just go do your job please.
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
Ze crystal ve vere looking for, they are from a high mountain on ze vest side of ze big ocean, yes? So ... vhich is ze big ocean on big ball of vater, eh?
Ens. Langsbury :
Ari-- keeps watch over the ship's condition, balancing the power equations where they are needed
Lieutenant Heather Argeneau :
I ran a spectral analysis, it's our blood you need. ::Heather told Kai with a nod.::
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
::Takes the vials and looks at them:: Um.....thank you? ::Looks at the Captain:: Aye, Sir. ::Turns and sprints to her labs to get to work::
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Or you and the rest of Engineering can modify some of the yellowstones, Laurel.
Laurel Lance :
Is that an order, SIr?
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
You've lost me, Nikosh
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
(( Don't forget, Stellar Cartography is mapping out how Earth is now. So you can ask them. ))
Cmdr. M. Morgensen :
$ ::He turned to face the Captain once more, grabbing the hypo off the table.:: I wasn't bargaining, Captain... I was merely asking for a favor. ::Turns to Kai.:: Let me know when you're done with these samples, and bring them and the devices to Security once you're finished, alright?
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Lets wait till what the Captain thinks. Probably going to be a briefing so everyone is on the same page.
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
Ze Earth ... is big ball of vater now, yes? See? ::points to the Stellar Cartography feed on one monitor::
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
$ Any more surprises?
Lieutenant Heather Argeneau :
None that I can think of Captain, ::Heather said honestly.::
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
Yeah...
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
::riding the lift alone back to the Bridge, trying to think:: Are we safe with those ... monsters on board?
Cmdr. M. Morgensen :
$ ::Shaking his head.:: I'm sorry about all of this, Captain. Nothing else, no.
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
and?
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
::In her lab, starts running her own analysis of the blood properties. Curious about how, but not questioning as ordered by the Captain, she finds the right way to combine the crystals and blood to make them work again, as long as they get enough crystals::
Laurel Lance :
Understood, Sir. ::looks at the feed Targus is pointing to:: Well, Guess we should get the scuba gear ready then. ::smirks::
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Yes, water. I'd recommend a briefing, we don't know what else is going on.
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
We need to get Morgensen and the Captain up here like right now.
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
$ Then let's get back to work shall we. Adon with me please.
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
++Captain++ Thanks to the samples I received in Medical, I now have a solution for getting home. However, we need lot more crystal first and then we can make it work.
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
Turbolift pause. Redirect. Counselor's Quarters, please. I have to think.
Computer :
::While yes Earth was a big ball of water, Tanzania still existed just under the water which means there was a vein of Tanzenite crystals under the water as well.::
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
Adon is there something I need to know?
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
I already called once, but lets do so again. +Captain+ We could use you back up here, as well as I recommend an all hands involved briefing to discuss information and course of action.
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
::ignore comms for a moment::
Ens Juglans Regia :
:: Camera does a pan showing Regia working ::
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
::steps off the TL and strides to his quarters and enters:: Hawk! I need you! How do I deal with this new knowledge?
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
::enters the bridge and taps her comm::++Kai++ I'm back at bridge I will check with you momentarily.
Lieutenant Heather Argeneau :
::Heather's turn to start pacing,:: we're going to need to transfer again, or just resign this time it's not going to sit well for this command team I dont' think... ::Heather was basically panicking really.::
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
Ollie what's going on?
Laurel Lance :
::looks up at the Captain enters::
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
::Stands up from the command chair:: So comms are working.
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
Keptin! Ve have discovered Suliban signals in ze static. And ... ze Earth is big ball of vater, no?
Cmdr. M. Morgensen :
$ ::Giving a sigh, and turning to grasp his wife around the waist.:: No. No more hiding. No more running. No more! I won't stand for it and live my life in the shadows, Heather... It's just not in my nature. Look at how diverse the Federation has grown! If they haven't shown their ability to oversee prejudices, then they've certainly done the greatest deception in history, and the Romulans would be hard-pressed to match it in the slightest.
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
::mumbles:: oh I need a drink.
Laurel Lance :
::tries real hard not to laugh::
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
This just gets better and better.
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
::lights a braid of sweetgrass then goes to his fountain and washes his face:: Hawk! Please, I need guidance!
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
::Nodding and knowing that when she had a moment, the captain would get back to her. Puts all the information about the blood samples under her control only, so only she would see it and know about it. She still didn't know why and she didn't particularly care why, it was, and she could accept that fact. No reason to blab it all over the place or let some nosey ensign blow things out of proportion::
Lieutenant Heather Argeneau :
::Heather looks to her husband and gave a nod.:: No more hiding ::She trusted her husband, but she was still afraid. Hiding had kept her and her family safe for more than three thousand years.::
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
Hey, some of those ships are heading our way.
Laurel Lance :
::Glances over at Persia:: Did you find anything that could help with this mess?
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
There's that, we also have a theory that Archer failed here.
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
The ancient ones told stories of immortals, and many tales of the hunters who drink the blood of the vanquished, but ... those were just stories to frighten young children, weren't they? Hawk, please, help me!
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
++Lionmane++ I need you to do some research for me while you are there on the bridge. I need you to read the scans from stellar cartography and find the best veins of tanzanite on Earth, so we don't have to go searching when we get there. And then feed that information to the Captain and Commander.
Lt. Persia Lionmane :
::Looking at her infomtion then looking back at laurel:: So far not really.
Cmdr. M. Morgensen :
$ ::He gave her a gentle nod, placing his forehead to hers as he took the bracelet that disguised her DNA and slid it off her wrist.:: We live, and die, together. Through whatever fate we're dealt. I trust the Captain. This ship. The crew. I can't think of anywhere else more safe.
Laurel Lance :
::shrugs:: Me neither.

MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
::says slightly louder:: the fish are swimming towards us! Port side, three of them
Lieutenant Heather Argeneau :
::it took everything in Heather to keep from grabbing her bracelet back that had sensors pick up El'Aurian DNA instead of Atlantean altered DNA. She took several deep breaths and nodded looking into her husbands eyes.:: Hiding has always kept us safe before, but I trust you and I trust the captain.

○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
::convulsing on the floor of his quarters, deep in the trance now::
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :

Ens. Langsbury :
Jehane-- send a single finger salute at the Red Alert before heading for the Wellness Center
Laurel Lance :
::nods at Targus' comment:: Yeah, that's unheard of... In OUR universe at least.
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Lets see what they have to say, open a channel.
Cmdr. M. Morgensen :

A chameloid, a soothsayer and a vampire walk into a bar...
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
LOL
Ens. Langsbury :
Hope they didn't hurt themselves
Cmdr. M. Morgensen :
Least I didn't run into it!
MCpt. Kirsten Maud :
true
they all get admitted to the nearest hospital for mild head trauma
Ens. Langsbury :
A termite goes into a Tavern and asks " is the bar tender here?"
Lt JG Laurel Lance :
and they all said "OUCH!"
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
Fantastic job everyone!!! I want to see more logs. That will determine TBS. AND, thanks for the fantastic logs guys.
Cmdr. M. Morgensen :
So, I see Adon having to write a long log for his vision, and the Captain needs a log of sneaking to her RR for a very stout cocktail... right?
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
Probably
Ens. T. Queen / Lt. H. Argeneau :
I am really enjoying running this plot
Cmdr. M. Morgensen :
Y'know, smuggling alcohol on-board would mean the CSec didn't do a good enough job...
Favor for a favor, Captain? XD
Ens. Langsbury :
And I'm still POed at Adon
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
If you have specific questions please check with Heather as she has specifics that need to happen and not everyone knows all or has all the answers this will truly be a crew effort orchestrated by Heather.
Any questions?
Cmdr. M. Morgensen :
Nothing for me.
Ens. T. Queen / Lt. H. Argeneau :
I am here anytime to answer questions if you have them.
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
Nothing here, either.
Ens. Langsbury :
RH
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
Bescoine?
Ens. Langsbury :
Adon, when the hell are we getting together to do that log?
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
Riiigght ... forgot!
Cmdr. M. Morgensen :
I would recommend probably on Wednesday or Thursday afternoon, as Friday he will be driving home and simming on the Penumbra, and it's also his birthday Friday.
Ens. Langsbury :
Sigh
Cmdr. M. Morgensen :
Keep in mind, he is also quite forgetful...
So, just keep on him.
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
If there is nothing pertinent to tonight's sim
Ens. Langsbury :
Due to his advancing age?
Cmdr. M. Morgensen :
Well... he's always been forgetful.
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
(I've had early onset Alzhiemers for like 45 years or so!)
Cmdr. M. Morgensen :
^ See?
Ens. T. Queen / Lt. H. Argeneau :
lolol
Cmdr. M. Morgensen :
I don't believe there's anything pertinent, Captain.
Going once?
Ens. Langsbury :
Oh since the day you were born Adon
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
Ollie, say your peace
Or is it piece... Hahaha
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Some confusion a bit, but still really good great everyone. Looks like we have a number of things to deal with. Enjoy the rest of your week everyone, be safe.
Computer :
Dismissed!
