USS Avalon NCC 06742-A: Episode II (part 2)

"Children of the Prophets"

Summary:
The two special teams set to work gathering their information. Commander Etti discovers information about Utritium ore being traded by Nausicans, and Ensign Corav finds some things out about a very large gudance computer. Meanwhile, Ensign Verkal socializes with a Cardassian woman who may have ties to the pirates. When Crewman Hunter is attacked by the group of Nausicans carrying the ore, the team decides to head back to the Avalon. About an hour into the trip home aboard the Scorpion, the team is attacked by the Cardassian woman's ship. After extensive damage, including a hull breach, it seems as though the Scorpion will not survive the battle, but the Avalon intervenes just in time. Once back aboard the Avalon, the crew puts their information together to determine that the CAP is collaborating with the Cardassians to produce the Dreadnought Missile, a weapon that has the power to destroy an entire planet. It is suspected that Bajor may be the test planet for the CAP's show of force intended to bring about the Federation's surrender.


Captain Alex Hunter:-=[BEGIN SIM]=-
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:[AMO] ::She stood up putting her hands behind her back for a moment glad to have something in them as she started walking toward Medical. Her back straight.::
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:::: She has been wandering the promenade idly, moving up and down through the stores and bars. She had bought a nice, quaint little Bajoran purse keeping in her tradition of getting a souvenir from every mission she particpated in :
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS] ::She was still sitting at a table in front of the Promenade's Bajoran restaurant, nursing her cup of jumja tea.::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM]::Verkal had been spreading information around a Ferengi bar... simple, legal offers for starship retrofits. Of course these all implied that there might be something beyond the legal if one was really willing to take the risk
Commander John Etti:[@XO] ::moves in closer to Liel moving his hand closer to his bajoran weapon::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::Still standing at the railing loitering? Not quite. She would glance now and then back into the bar waiting for some time before reentering it.::
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: A group of Nausicans can be seen charging down the promanade. They push patrons out of the way until they get to quarks bar
Crewman Recruit Curtis Jameson:@[AOPS]:::He grew rather bored, making a round on the promenade as well, not very familiar with the station, and he just peered into the shops and restaurants, seeing fellow crewmembers occasionally, but not acknowledging them.:::
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS] ::Every so often she would see one of the team members pass by, but she held her gaze at her own eye level, so made no eye contact.::
Ensign JG Verkal:to actually offered something special. Latinum was implied. He thought the Ferengi would ... be interested. Nauscians? He eyed these beings as they entered the bar::
Crewman Recruit Curtis Jameson:@[AOPS]::Hears a rowdy bunch up ahead, people yelling obscenities and the like, and wonders if he should see what all the ruckus is about.:::
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] ::: having seen the nausicans enter so violently into the bar, she lifts her wrist, as if to wipe something and she speaks into a small communicator she has placed there ::: Some nausicans just knocked the crap out
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:of some people and are headed towards Quarks. ::: her voice is soft and slow :::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::Blinks a bit her jaw tensing slightly as the on coming and moves slightly to be out of the way lifting a brow a bit.::
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: The nausicans growl and grunt loudly, each boasting about their recently completed mission. At the same time two Ferengi are talking about denyabyte by Corav.
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] ::One nice thing about having an officer who had spent decades as a spy, and operative of perhaps the greatest intelligence agency in the quadrant, was that one got an observant operative. He paid as much attention as
Captain Alex Hunter:Nausican CPT> FERENGI! ::: He yells ::: FERENGI! Talkorian ale over here before I cut off your ears!
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS] ::She'd seen the Nausicans, but her table had luckily been far enough back to not have to deal with them. She leaned back in her chair, now, her ears having picked up the interesting talk beside her...::
Ensign JG Verkal:he could to those who seemed a bit abnormal, Nausican's included::
Commander John Etti:[@XO]::look over to the Nausicans...as much as he is going to fear what he sees he begins to probe their mind for any interesting surface thoughts that he could use::
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:[@AMO] ::Tilts her head pausing where she was and leaning on the wall watching intently as the mass of Nausicans went to the bar. Her gaze steady. Violet eyes intent.::
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] ::: She idles by the Nausicans table, leaning behind a post, attempting to listen in :::
Captain Alex Hunter:Ferengi> That deynabyte cargo we've hauled will make a great profit in the Gamma quadrant. They're having shortages all over the colonies there.
Crewman Recruit Curtis Jameson:@[AOPS]:::makes a pass in front of Quarks to see if other crewmembers flash some kind of signal for him to stay or go find something else to do.:::
Captain Alex Hunter:Nausican LT> ::: slaps Telsia's rear as she walks past growling loudly at her ::: Bajoran, you would do well to come to my quarters tonight.
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She paused, considering whether she should talk to the Ferengi or simply gather information. Good, she thought, that confirmed they were selling it in the Gamma quadrant. Hopefully they would keep babbling.::
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] ::: Stops, her face turning red under copper skin. She obviously continued to the pole and kept her cool :::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::Walks back into the bar with a glance to John. Her gaze ice cold as she sat down at the bar her chin lifting a bit.::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM]::well, so there were dealings here with the gamma quadrant. This was most interesting. Such said there might be a connection::
Captain Alex Hunter:Ferengi Daimon> Ineed, we can buy many orion females with the latinum we earn. Perhaps it would be best to keep transferring the "deynabyte" ::: he says it as if denyabyte meant something else :::
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION> Etti can pick up nothing from the nausicans, right now their thinking primarily of liquor, women and food.
Captain Alex Hunter:Nausican CPT> FERENGI! Hurry with our ALE!
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: Quark waddles over, his gaze low and his demenor is that of one who is afraid.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::Lifts a brow slightly seeing the Ferengi act like that. Worms but scared worms.. perhaps... she watched for a moment then sipped her drink it was warm.::
Captain Alex Hunter:Nausican> Excellent, Ferengi! ::: Pays quark ::: Now get out of my sight before I kill you!
Commander John Etti:[@XO] ::shakes his head as he walks skimming the minds of others not going too deep just looking for information::
Captain Alex Hunter:Ferengi LT> Our buyers pay well.
Captain Alex Hunter:Ferengi Daimon> Yes, it is my every intention that we keep funding their... crusade.
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:[@AMO] ::Shifts her position walking a bit closer to the others. In a good position to listen. And to aid if someone needed it.::
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She picked up her tea again, turning the cup around in her hand a few times before she drank some. What were they talking about? She "hmm"ed.::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] ::he saw something in these Ferengi ... he watching through the corner of his eyes. Maybe they would prove to be of interest::
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: The Ferengi captain notices Feala and scurries over like a cockroach.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::Motions slightly to quark for him to refill her cup but her gaze sent other messages. Come to me. Let's play. It said.. Flirtatous but not overly so.::
Commander John Etti:[@XO]::hears the ferengi talking and moves over to them hoping to overhear more::
Captain Alex Hunter:Daimon Lepath> Hmmm a bajoran female... you... you are very beautiful ::: has a slight lisp, obviously :::
Captain Alex Hunter:Nausican Captain> we must go soon if we are to finish our run.
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She turned her head up toward the Ferengi slowly, her eyes moving more than her head.:: And?
Crewman Recruit Curtis Jameson:@[AOPS]:::Not seeing any signgals from the other crewmembers, he wanders into Quark's bar and sits at the far end of the bar, and orders a drink, to blend in, and scan people for information telepathically, as well as listen to what
Crewman Recruit Curtis Jameson:was going on::
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:[@AMO] ::Watching from her position her fingers gripping the padd as she moved a little closer to Feala.::
Captain Alex Hunter:Daimon Lepath> Do you enjoy riches, female?
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: The Nausicans begin to leave as a Cardassian female in heavy clothes which mimic Verkals enters.
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS][Lepath] What kind of... riches are we talking about here?
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP]=/\=[ALL] ::: whispers into her com ::: I'll follow the nausicans...
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] ::: Slips out right behind them, attempting to be casual and stays in a crowd where she is permitted.
Ensign JG Verkal:::if the little Ferengi were any less offensive he would have been jealous. He was not though, and was ready to do his ... side of things. He could not help but take notice of the other Cardassian. It had been a long time since he
Captain Alex Hunter:Daimon Lepath> ::: he inhales sharply ::: Thousands upon thousands of bars of gold pressed latinum...
Ensign JG Verkal:had seen one of his own race. He observed her, giving her a tiny hint he was curious. Nothing else::
Captain Alex Hunter:Daimon Lepath> All for you, my Bajoran flower...
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:[@AMO] ::Tries not to make any noise as she sits down at the nearby table.::
Captain Alex Hunter:Cardassian Female> ::: She notices Verkal instantly. She slinks over, sort of attractive (in Cardassian terms), her frame is small and thin. She has the posture of a noble woman. Her voice is strong ::: Greetings.
Captain Alex Hunter: I have never seen you here before.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::Leans toward Quark as the bunch leaves. Her head tilted a bit. Her voice low and soft as her lips near his ear.:: Why do they threaten you?
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She arched a brow. What she wouldn't do to pop this sneering Ferengi in those pointed teeth. He probably wanted her to become some kind of prostitute.:: [Lepath] You're not just offering me anything. What's the catch?
Captain Alex Hunter:Nausicans> ::: They wind down to the docking bays, Telsia has a bit of trouble keeping up. Nothing too bad though. They turn a corner :::
Ensign JG Verkal:Greetings as well. I have not spent much time here, though I am pleased to speak with another Cardassian, especially one of such wonderfully appealing form ::he smiled at her, flirting a little, as would be expected, still checking
Captain Alex Hunter:Daimon Lepath> You must agree to be my wife... ::: inhales as if in pleasure, his eyes thinking of her hands giving him omax :::
Ensign JG Verkal:on Liel, and the Ferengi through the corner of his eyes. His training was detailed ... it made such actions sickeningly easy::
Captain Alex Hunter:Cardassian Female> ::: she giggles slightly, gesturing to quark ::: Two glasses of Kanar for me and my new found friend here... Yes. I'm Usidra. I am the Captain of the cargo ship V'Erlon
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] ::: Smirks ::: Now I can see what they're hiding ::: Smiles and slinks around the corner :::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::Her head tilting closer to the Ferengi.:: So... you going to speak to me? Or stand there dumbfounded?
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM]A pleasure to meet you, though I have my own. Perhaps I could pay for your drink however? ::he chuckled, holding up his glass of kanar::
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She laughed. Loudly.:: [Lepath] Your WIFE? Ferengi, I know how your race treats its women. You lure me in with promises of Latinum and then would take even the clothes from my back.
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She smirked, then paused to consider something.:: But....
Crewman Recruit Curtis Jameson:@[AOPS]+tele+@[AMO] Do you have a clue?
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: Telsia turns the corner alright. Right into the Nausican Captain. His Lieutenant picks her up off the deck.
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:@[AMO] ::Suddenly shifted her head snapping up a little bit listening more intently.::
Captain Alex Hunter:Daimon Lepath> But? ::: looks at her ferret faced and curious :::
Captain Alex Hunter:Usidra> I insist that I pay. I'm sure freighter captains make more than you have anyways. ::: Chuckles ::: Besides, one so cute as you need not worry about it.
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She waved her hand in the Ferengi's direction, intending to make him curious.:: [Lepath] Oh, you probably wouldn't.
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] What the f-! ::: She is hauled up. Instinctively she reaches into her jacket for her phaser ready to shoot the Nausican right square in his head :::
Captain Alex Hunter:Daimon> W-W-What? ::: even more curious::::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::Watches everything intently. Verkal and the Cardassian woman. Let's quark do his job. Sitting back with that same icy look then blinks a bit standing up for a moment. Walking back out to the railing. Her gaze moving about
Ensign JG Liel Andora:slowly scanning the place.::
Ensign JG Verkal:Must one take the dignity of an old Cardassian man? ::he teased the woman playfully. He was at worst middle aged. Attractive, and strong, even for one of his species. It would not do to simply bend down. He thought pride would be
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She heard the commotion coming from Quark's bar and resisted the urge to get curious. Instead, she leaned toward the Ferengi and teased his right ear with one finger.:: [Lepath] I heard you and your friend...
Captain Alex Hunter:Nausican Captain> ::: Smacks the phaser pistol from her hand tears off her jacket, revealing its holster and remvoing her communicator ::: Federation spy! ::: he seethes ::: We shall show you, what we do with you, Federation!
Captain Alex Hunter:::: He throws her head first into his ship :::
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS][Lepath] Talking about an arrangement that I might have some interest in.
Ensign JG Verkal:even more ... appealing. He wanted information more then company::
Captain Alex Hunter:Daimon> What kind of arrangement?
Captain Alex Hunter:Usidra> Yes, I must! Now drink down, handsome. Enjoy yourself.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::Starts walking not too fast not to slow. Her head tilted. So many minds. Something was wrong though. It might just be old paranoia.::
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] ::: Is tossed, head first into a crate :::
Crewman Recruit Curtis Jameson:@[AOPS]:::Looks over his shoulder again back towards Crewman Lea, wondering why she didn't answer::: +tele+@[AMO] You alright back there?
Captain Alex Hunter:Nausican> We're going to have some fun with you, Federation ::: pulls out a twelve inch thin bladed knife. He brandishes it then looks at her :::
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS][Lepath] This... shipment that you were mentioning. ::She continued to tease his ear.:: I would be interested in... aquiring information about your trading.
Captain Alex Hunter:Nausican> Or should I let my friends enjoy you first?
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:[@ AMO] ::Walks to the Bar standing still.:: +tele+@[AOPS] I'm okay but I scence trouble.
Crewman Recruit Curtis Jameson:@[AOPS]:::Returns his gaze upon his drink, closes his eyes and takes a sip while trying to sift through all the stray lies and truths being told in the bar.::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM]::he took another drink of his own kanar, smirking at this Usidra woman ... this would also show her he was truly a Cardassian ... charm flowed, trust remained a desirable ghost like form. Polite, and alluring though
Ensign JG Verkal:distant, and in a way false through his warm, inviting smile. All part of the ritual as it were::
Crewman Recruit Curtis Jameson:@[AOPS]+tele+@[AMO] I do as well, but I can't put a finger on it. Think we should stay put here in the bar?
Captain Alex Hunter:daimon> ::: He shivers and almost loses control as she breaths her hot words into hs ear ::: Acquire information on trading? What information do you wish, if you can show me that your loyal I will tell you everything you want.
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:[@AMO] ::Shakes her head a little bit looking around it was that there was no barrier. Less then words was the feeling that she was alright but something wasn't. She shook her head slightly.::
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] ::: Stands up and cracks her knuckles ::: Are you sure you want to do that?
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:[@AMO] ::walking quickly her gaze moving. She had the padd infront of her as if she had just recieved an important communique.::
Captain Alex Hunter:Nausican> What will a puny worm like you do? I shall enjoy your body first before I rip you into shreds.
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She leaned even closer to the Daimon's ear.:: [Lepath] Where are you getting this... "deynabyte," and who are you trading it to? ::With a grin, she leaned back and gave a teasing look to the Ferengi.::
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTIO> The nausicans start to corner her, obviously sure that they have the upper hand.
Crewman Recruit Curtis Jameson:@[AOPS]:::Sensing danger, he pays Quark promptly and exits the bar, looking around the promenade with piercing cat-like eyes::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] So ... might I ask what a Cardassian woman would be doing on a Bajoran station? ::the same false smile that was the prelude to the bickering that lead into something more ... serious with his people::
Captain Alex Hunter:Daimon> I-I- I- can't tell you. The "deynabyte's" customer wants to remain anynomous.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::Rounds a corner her hand on a hidden romulan disruptor... a present that hdn't been easy to get ahold of.::
Captain Alex Hunter:Usidra> I am a trader. This station is a hub for trading. I often trade many things. Mostly food provisions
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS][Lepath] Oh... ::She pulled her hand back.:: That's a shame.
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] ::: Taking a deep breath she rears back her leg and busts the nausican captain and his knife weilding butt into the overhead :::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] Provisions ... at least it must be safe ... no need for a skilled crew or a powerful ship for such tasks ::this prod was both a way to "flirt" with another member of his species, and a way to ask just how bad this supposed
Captain Alex Hunter:Daimon> Wait wait! What do you want to know? And what do I get in return?
Ensign JG Verkal:pirate problem was::
Captain Alex Hunter:Usidra> Well, I do have a skilled crew. they're good people. Mostly human. we make cross border runs and trade things over to the former cardassian union frequently. Piracy, has, however been a problem.
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS][Lepath] I've told you what I want to know. You tell me what will it take to get it.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::Pauses to watch a moment getting the gist of what is going on with Telsia. Her head tilted a bit.::
Captain Alex Hunter:Nausicans> ::: The captain is knocked against the bulk head by telsia's muscular right leg but the other two aren't daunted for long and continue their advance. One smacks telsia straight to the ground :::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] ::this little response told him she was interested:: Well, with a human crew, what does one expect? ::a smirk, and smile that oozed charm that almost seemed trained into him:: Pirates however ... pity one cannot learn about
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] ::: her ears ring with an explosion as she is knocked to the ground like a bad habit :::
Crewman Recruit Curtis Jameson:@[AOPS]::Continues to wander down the promenade, trying to appear non-chalant and friendly, but still scanning minds and trying to assess the situation:::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] Scum... ::She said slowly. Her gaze lifting slightly.:: Beasts.. ::Sighs a bit rocking back on her heels. looking at the Nausicans.::
Ensign JG Verkal:them ::this was a question she could take any number of ways. If she was an ally, she could take it from his mannerisms that he might be interested in allying with the pirates. Of course he was trained to appear neutral ... so
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] ::: She recovers quickly and dives into the Nausican lieutenant. She knocks him into the corridor, rolling on the ground with him in a heated struggle :::
Ensign JG Verkal:perhaps he was hostile to these pirates ... it would depend on this woman's opinion of them::
Captain Alex Hunter:Daimon> I know exactly what you will do for me. You will be my wife. And we will share the profits sixty forty.
Captain Alex Hunter:Usidra> Yes, I was transporting wheat a month ago and was boarded. They trashed my vessel but they didn't find what they were looking for.
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] Wheat? Perhaps their intelligence is lacking. One would think skilled marauders would search for something more ... equitable on the black market ::he smirked a little, running a hand through his straight, dark hair:: Any
Captain Alex Hunter:Nausican LT> ::: Pulls out a dagger and stabs down at telsia's torso. He grazes her right side, no real damage but it hurts like hell. He throws her off down the corridor :::
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She scoffed.:: [Lepath] I told you, Ferengi, I'm not joining with you. ::She leaned closer again.:: I have good connections. I think I could add to your profits. And I'd be willing to pay a... finder's fee of sorts.
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:[@AMO] ::Feels a bit lost so much going on she found herself in the Medical bay walking around slowly.::
Captain Alex Hunter:Daimon> No wife, no information :: He begins to waddle off :::
Ensign JG Verkal:notion where they seem to be operating? I don't care to ... deal with that sort of thing on business ... unless I must ::he implied there was a risk in attacking him, if she was indeed more then she seemed. If not, it would
Ensign JG Verkal:seem just like a normal question::
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She jumped up from her seat and pulled him back by a shoulder. As he turned, she then traced a finger down the outer edge of his ear, then down his cheek.:: [Lepath] How can I convince you? I can be very convincing.
Captain Alex Hunter:Usidra> :::: Laughs out loud ::: Yes, they weren't too bright. They attemped to steal wheat but they though we were carrying induction coils.
Captain Alex Hunter:Nausican> Time to die, Bajoran!
Crewman Recruit Curtis Jameson: @[AOPS]+tele+@[AMO]If you're in a place where we can compare notes, please tell me where.
Captain Alex Hunter:Nausican> ::: gets his knife ready to stab down straight into her body :::
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] ::: Looking right next to her she sees her phase pistol. Reacting instantly, without changing the settings she fires twice at the Nausican LT and three times at the Crewman :::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] ::he laughed along with her:: They wanted induction coils? Seems odd to try to attack a ship carrying wheat. Perhaps they are incompetent? At least it bodes well for shipping in this area
Ensign JG Liel Andora:@[AMO] ::He would get the feeling of work a release from pressure and medical instruments. Her thoughts whispering of helping people healing their wounds.::
Captain Alex Hunter:Daimon> ::: his foot practically jumps up and down in pleasure ::: I will... tell you what you want to know. You owe me profit, though.
Captain Alex Hunter:Usidra> well, I assumed their ship had no scanners. We were also coming out of the bad lands so thay could have interfered. Their ship wasn't the best around.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::Brightly.:: [@SOP] Scuse me? you need any help with this jerks, Ma'am?
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] ::: She stands up, cupping her wound with her left hand, carrying the pistol in her right :::
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She grinned.:: [Lepath] I'll see to it that you're not sorry.
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: The nausicans fly back and hit the deck, both are killed at the second shot. There are craters burned into their skin and fluid drips from the openings.
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] Maybe if you invested in a bit more firepower to drive such away? ::he asked, with a little smirk::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] Guess not. Good work. ::With that she walked back to the bar.::
Captain Alex Hunter:Usidra> I have no need for fire power. I'm an honest trader.
Captain Alex Hunter:Daimon> Ask your questions, female.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::Motions to the bar tender asking for a drink. Her gaze moving about the room.::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] Defense is always legitimate ... ::he smiled at the other Cardassian, running a hand along one of the tendons in his neck::
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She grinned, leading him over to a more remote place to sit, staying with the wicked grin that would make him continue looking forward to whatever may happen.:: [Daimon] What's your cargo?
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] ::: Limps down the promonade, leaning on a post.
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:[@AMO] ::Walks back to the prominade blinking a bit at everyone. Pain. It always hit her hardest. Other than death. Her gaze landing on Telsia.::
Captain Alex Hunter:Daimon> We were carrying a huge guidance computer. I don't know what its for. We dropped it off at the Cardassian border. A Federation shuttle picked it up
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] ::: She has a cut forehead, covered with sweat, and is obviously breathing heavily :::
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:[@AMO] ::Moves to Telsia. Observing her a moment.:: [@SOP] Let's get you to sickbay.
Captain Alex Hunter:Usidra> Defense, yes. But I'm not too concerned with it.
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP][@AMO] I agree.. ::: blood is dribbling down her right side :::
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS][Daimon] ::She nodded.:: Mmm... a guidance computer. You chose well, my connections deal well in ship equipment. What about your source and your buyer? ::There's that grin again.::
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:[@AMO] ::Puts an arm around her avoiding the injury and helps her along to the bay.:: [@SOP] Those Nausicans dead now? ::Her voice was low.::
Captain Alex Hunter:Daimon> Our buyer was in a federation shuttle. That's all I know.
Captain Alex Hunter:Daimon> They paid us on the spot.
Captain Alex Hunter:Daimon> I do know one thing. The shuttle's name was Hermese
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP]@[AMO] Everyone... you may want to get someone to check their ship.
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She catalogued all of this information mentally.:: [Daimon] Alright. What about your source?
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] Good ... then perhaps trade and transport is fairly safe in this area ... no matter ::he took another drink of his own kanar:: Perhaps later I might see your ship ::there was a bit of a smile as he said this::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::Gets an idea and goes to find out where the Nausican ship was docked.::
Captain Alex Hunter:Daimon> WE bought it from a Galor III classed vessel. It was large. It almost looked like a giant homing chip for a torpedo.
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] ::he nodded his head to the woman:: I must return to my quarters to make a few ... arrangements. I do hope I might encounter such a lovely woman as yourself again soon ::he smiled, standing ... his badge had been turned off,
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She nodded and removed a small chip from her pocket that would plug into a PADD with her contact information. It was all fake, of course, which he would find out when he tried to find his lost profits. She
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:[@AMO[@SOP] We have friends out there that would be smart enough to do that. ::Easing her onto a bed.::
Captain Alex Hunter:Usidra> I'll will definately see you around
Ensign JG Verkal:even if he left a frequency on the table in case the woman wished to reach him. The badge still conveyed things as he started towards this ship slowly, forcing a little stagger, informing many he was *supposed to be drunk::
Captain Alex Hunter:Daimon> ::: Takes it ::: I will see you around female...
Ensign Corav Feala:could have just got up and left, but she wanted to have the appearance of trustworthiness. She stood then and grabbed his ear gently one more time, leaning in to whisper.:: [Daimon] You won't be sorry.
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] ::: Sits on the biobed as they reach medical. She removes her shirt and lays down in only a sports bra. Her body is sweaty and the pain is searing from the cut :::
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She stood and walked off into the crowd, bringing her wrist up to her mouth as she pretended to rub her nose.:: [comm] I got some information from a Ferengi that might be useful. ::She dropped her hand and kept
Ensign Corav Feala:walking around.::
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:[@AMO] ::keeps pushing the Doctor about who was frustrated at his bay being taken over by an unknown woman. Gets a hypospray of pain killers and administers it. Then grabbing the correct instrument began to fix the damage.::
Captain Alex Hunter:[Etti]+comm+[OPS] A situation has occured. Get everyone not doing something to the med lab.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::taps into a computer looking for the ship. Her frown growing slightly.::
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] ::: visibly relaxes as her pain is dulled away ::: Thanks. I feel much better.
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:[@AMO][@SOP] They did a number on you. I would suggest no more fighting for a day or two. ::She muttered and glanced at the Doctor who was upset.::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM]+comm+[ALL] ::he spoke from a small alcove:: Pirates have been hitting ships in this area for components ... I've gathered some information from a freighter captain
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP][AMO] They did have the numerical advantage. And now they're dead, score one for Telsia.
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She "rubbed her nose" again. +comm+[HELM] Verkal, get Liel and come to the medical bay if you're in a position to do so. ::She then sneezed loudly to cover all of the nose rubbing.::
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:@[AMO][SOP] Good work then. ::She nodded checking for a concussion and other possible problems. Mending each as she finds them.::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::Finally finding the right corridor and the dock she went to the Nausican ship looking at it from her position. They would pull out or make trouble.::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM]+comm+[OPS] Done ... ::he hit his badge, speaking softly to Liel:: [TAC]+T+ Meet me in the medical bay ... ::he stated as he started moving there::
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::Along the way, she made eye contact with Jameson and nodded, indicating that he should follow her. She then made her way to the medical bay and entered, looking immediately to Brigid and Telsia.::
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] ::: Propped up, having her wounds sealed :::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC]+tele+[HELM] checking the nausican ship out... ::was her silent responce full of Anxiety.:: Will be there in a moment.
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION> There are two dead bodies in the hall way. DS9 security has secured the area and is hauling the Nausican captain off for questioning.
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS][SOP][AMO] What happened?
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::Nods to herself. And went to Medical as charged to do so.::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM]+comm+[TAC] I shall be in the medical bay ... ::he still walked through the station::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC]+Tele+[@HELM] On my way. ::Liel walked purposefully and briskly stopping long enough to pay Quark who was annoyed with her for coming and going.:::
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP][OPS] The nausicans caught me trailing them. I was in a scuffle, then they got a hit on me with a knife.
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::Telsia would see that there was genuine concern in her eyes.:: [SOP] Are you okay?
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:[@AMO] ::Keeps working checking Telsia's eyes at the moment. Then nodding a little bit.::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] ::any visit to the medical bay was bad news ... something had happened, and he was indeed not pleased with the idea::
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] ::: Drops the tough act, and shows that it was too close in her eyes. She nods :::[OPS} I'm fine
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: Etti arrives in the medbay
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She smiled.:: [SOP] That's good. [AMO] Thanks for taking care of this.
Captain Alex Hunter:[Etti][ALL] We're going back to the Avalon ASAP>
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::WAlks into the bay finally looking disgruntled.:: [@SOP] You were lucky is what you were. ::She stated.:: That captain was still alive... but he's in custody now.
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:[@AMO][SOP] You're all set. ::then nodding a little.::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] ::he had gathered a bit of info ... so that was all he had to offer ... the XO had ordered them back to the Avalon, and so that would be his new direction::
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She looked up at Etti.:: [Etti] So we're done here?
Captain Alex Hunter:@[Etti] ::: nods ::: [OPS] We're to return to the Avalon. Our time here is up. They did find something interesting on the Nausican ship, however.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::Feels a surge of disappointment her chin lifting.:: I hope so.
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] ::: Sits up and looks at Liel ::: [TAC] Oh, I think I handled myself pretty we..
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:well*
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:[@AMO] ::Steps back slightly.:: How are we going back? The Scorpion or ..?
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] ::back to the Avalon ... so long as the needed info had been gathered, all would be "good" as it were::
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS][All] If we're not planning to return, I think we can leave any way... no need to keep from blowing cover we don't need.
Captain Alex Hunter:@[Etti][All] We're going the same way we came. At the Scorpion's maximum warp, the Avalon is two hours away.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] Yes perfectly ... but you were still outnumbered and you left the view of one of the party. Next time do not take off alone like that. ::She said sharply then realizing it wasn't her place to call Telsia out she shut up
Ensign JG Liel Andora:walking back to the Scorpion. Still having to deal with disappointment.::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] ::Verkal heard this, and returned to the little Hideki, getting ready to depart, and meet up with the Avalon::
Captain Alex Hunter:@[Etti] :: waves them over ::: Come on, lets go ::: Walks to the scorpion's place in the docking ring then boards :::
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:[@AMO] ::Blinks after Liel tilting her head. Then nodding to Etti made her way back to the Scorpion.::
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She followed to the Scorpion.::
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] ::: Huffs, she'd thought she'd done a good job. She picks up her phase pistol, still a little sore, sticking in the back of her pants and slides on her jacket as she walks towards the scorpion :::
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] ::: Her head hangs a little lower than normal :::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] ::back on the Scorpion, he felt a bit more at home ... glad to have gathered a few tidbits of information::
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] ::: She steps onto the Scorpion and sits ontop of a case of weapons :::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] ::Takes her seat at Tactical. Her eyes colder than ice as she stared ahead.::
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS][All] Are we sharing information now or back home?
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] ::: She had a feeling that she'd never honestly gain any of their respect. She'd done well, shed fought them off and lived. Hell, that was good enough for her. :::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] ::he took his own seat, shooting Liel a tiny smile, before looking to Feala:: [OPS] I gathered a little bit of information ... shall share it when needed
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] ::Speaks softly to Telsia.:: you did well. We just do not want to lose you Sai... And though you won this time... next time you might not be so lucky. Just have back up.
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP][TAC] ::: After nodding softly ;:: I won't be so reckless in the future.
Captain Alex Hunter:[Etti][ALL] I did too, but I think we may want to wait until we're home.
Captain Alex Hunter:[Etti][HELM] Let's get the hell outta here
Ensign JG Liel Andora:@[TAC][SOP] I used to work for the Order... I always had back up even at the risk of being... stabbed in the back... ::She shrugged a little.:: You need to trust us a little bit and we will trust you.
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] As soon as their clamps are released, I can pull away, and get us back to the Avalon
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:[@AMO] ::Sits quietly two kittens bounding out of the med bay to her. She picked them up petting them softly.:: There you two are.
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: The clamps are released. After a bit of a shake, the Scorpion floats freely.
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP][TAC] I'll do that from now on. I'm just used to operating alone.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:@[TAC] ::Watching the scans of the area.:: [SOP] We are a team. Without acting as a team things like this happen. You will learn.
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM]::Verkal takes control of the ship with ease, and skill far beyond even what he controlled the Avalon with. He backed the ship away with thrusters, before setting off at impulse power, his eyes looking to Etti:: [XO] Shall we
Ensign JG Verkal:go to warp?
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::In her silent thoughtfulness, she cringed to herself a little. She wanted so badly to wash her hands after touching that weasel's ear.::
Captain Alex Hunter:[Etti][HELM] ::: Nods as he sits ::: Yes, please
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][XO] My pleasure ... ::he started to accelerate, speeding to high warp as had been indicated with the Scorpion, back to the Avalon. They did need to report what had been learned::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::Gets up walking to the small room the door closing as she looked around the tiny place tracing the dents and scratches in the walls pulling something out of the chest from a false bottom.::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::Walks back to her station after a few moments. Taking a seat and conducting the scans. A slight nod to herself.::
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: Sensors start to bleep when they are about one hour out of deep space nine
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She looked over at Liel, briefly but curiously. Then the bleeping got her attention and she stood behind a nearby console to check it.::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] ::Verkal tried to get a close reading on the sensor signal, as he closed on the Avalon:: [ALL] Maybe we have a bit of company ...
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::Reads off the reading her brow furrowing tightly. Glancing to Feala then nodding silently.::
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: If one could see the outside of the vessel, it would be impressive. A Galor I class vessel has actually snuck up on them. It has been cloaked, following them the enitre time.
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She cursed in Bajoran.:: [TAC][HELM] Are you seeing this?
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] Galor I class ship.. ::She tensed and movied her hands over the controls bringing weapons online. She let out a rather colorful curse.::
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: Another bleeping sound indicates to the seasoned crew that they are being hailed.
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP][ALL] What the hell is going on? ::: arrives on the bridge :::
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS][All] They're hailing us.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC][HELM] Weapons on Standby. ::Motions to Ops.::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][ALL] We've got one of the older Galor classes following us! ::he looked at Feala:: [OPS] Yes, I am ... shall we hail the Avalon, and ask them to go to emergency warp, or turn to face them? ::after saying this, he looked to
Ensign JG Verkal:Feala:: Might as well respond ... ::he waited for the Ops station to open things up, unless Feala wanted him to respond::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC][OPS] On Screen.
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She cringed and put the hail on screen.::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC][SOP] Company...
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: As the screen pops up, the Cardassian woman Verkal was speaking with in Quarks appears on the screen.
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:[@AMO] ::Goes to medical retrieving a kit and coming back putting it at her feet.::
Captain Alex Hunter:Gul M'lon> This is Gul M'lon of the Harkura.
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: SHe is more cocky now, her nose stuck up and chin high.
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She saw the Cardassian woman and looked over to Verkal, nodding in a way that seemed to say "I think this one's yours."::
Captain Alex Hunter:Gul M'lon> So I see you have killed or swayed my accomplices. But you failed to deter the strongest one.
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] ::Verkal smiled a bit, that cold, insincere, yet oddly warm look taking hold of him:: Well, hello again. A lovely freighter you have ::his fingers moved in a seemingly random manner on his console, though the Avalon would
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] ::Turns to a second pannel starting the Generator. Verkal had only seen her destroy the intakes that day. She didn't know how much was there but she was not going to go easy.::
Ensign JG Verkal:get an encrypted signal that would seem little more then a radiation leak from the apparently old, battered ship:: This might be an old Hideki ... but we have ... defenses ::a malevolent little snicker::
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:[@AMO] ::sits back seeming relaxed.::
Captain Alex Hunter:M'lon> ::: Shakes her head, making a tsk tsk tsk sound ::: Oh, Verkal. Did you think that trick would really work. You're in an old Hideki and I've scattered so much radiation that transmission will never get through
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: A disruptor blast to their aft takes them out of warp and rocks everyone inside violently.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::Tenses but waits for the order to return fire the shields going up fast.::
Ensign JG Verkal:::HEML:: Tis a pity we did not meet under better circumstances ... things could have been more pleasant! ::he rocked along with the ship, bringing them to face the old Galor, moving the ship with speed, and skill that was utterly
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] ::: forced to grab hold of the back of a chair, or else she'd collapse, the drugs starting to wear off. :::
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] Ahh! ::She gripped the console she'd chosen to stand behind, looking to diagnose the damage. She would report it when the hail was closed or muted.::
Ensign JG Verkal:shocking, allowing Liel a shot or so at them with their frankly illegally modified weapons, and time, he hoped at least to bring their generator online to power up their shields, weapons, and propulsion::
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: The transmission is cut and is replaced by torpedos barreling down on the small hideki.
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She cringed at the display, gritting her teeth.:: [All] Warp is gone.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::Fires three shots off in quick succession. Two Phaser and a burst of energy from the Generator. Her face tight.:: [NOIP] Come on... mess with me more you ::Colorful adjective.::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::The phaser shots were aimed on the Torpedos coming in the Generator shot aimed on the Ship itself.::
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:[@AMO] ::Holds on tight. Her eyes closed though.::
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She spun around to Telsia and Brigid.:: [AMO][SOP] Either of you have engineering training?
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: Liel's quick actions halt the torpedos with no problem. They explode cascading energy into space.
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP][OPS] Some, I'm no expert though. But I'll try
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: Blue torpedos impact the Scorpion's dorsal side. making sparks cascade down on the bridge.
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] ::he flew the ship with speed, and agility that would seem almost impossible, as he tried to put distance between the Scorpion, and this Galor, while still closing with the Avalon:: [ALL] TRY TO GET A SIGNAL THROUGH! ::he
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] Evasive give me another good shot, ::She was rearming again the generator going to release another Volley of energy from the Fussion. Her gaze tight. Torpedos ready though the didn't have much. She fired again trying to at
Ensign JG Verkal:yelled as the sparks fell down on him::
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS][SOP] Please do. Keep us going and make us better as well as you--::She shielded herself from the sparks and spun back to her display.:: [All] Dorsal shields down to ten percent!
Ensign JG Liel Andora:least cripple the other ship slowing it down. Growling in a way she hadn't in a long time. The torpedos aimed at the engines the burst aimed at the cloaking and shielding.::
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] ::: like a bolt of lighting she makes her way to the engineering room She has no clue about cardassian engineering but she starts off, checking pannels and making sure that circuts are operating :::
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS][HELM] Can we put a different side in their line of fire? ::She ran a quick analysis on the radiation the area had been flooded with.::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] ::he altered his course, which was flown in much the same way as one might expect a drunken soccer mom who was late for her kids practice to allow Liel a few more shots:: [OPS] Let me try ... ::he attempted to altered the
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: Liels torpedos impact the venteral shields of the Galor. There is a gold shimmer as the shields absorb the impact.
Ensign JG Verkal:Scorpion's position enough to get out of their range ... and failing that face them with another area of the ship::
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She cursed. This would be difficult. She punched at the console in several different attempts to send a message, then glanced back to the tactical display.:: Thier ventral shields are down to 79%.
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] ::: Takes a look, attempting to see if she can identify the problem with the warp core :::
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: Telsia clearly sees it staring at her, the matter/antimatter lines have been cut. The ship rocks again as the Galor closes, ever firing. The port side takes a plasma hit then is rocked by two photon torpedos.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::Loads up the Anti Matter torpedos glaring fit to kill as she Rerouted power from the generator into the phasers firing both.::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] ::as sparks fly, he bellows:: DIE! ::and brought their ship, taking Liel's shot's to face their weakened shields::
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP]+comm+[BRIDGE] The antimatter lines are fused tight! I'll need replacments or else we're going no where fast.
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She rocked again.:: [All] Port shields are offline!
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::Again aiming for life support and engines this time.::
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: The antimatter torpedos strike the engines but not the life support, the second torpedo hits the tail and blows the Galor way off course.
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::Another message. Another. Different frequencies, some subspace, some not. All the while checking the tactical status readouts from the sensors.::
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: The galor has lost all engine power but is still drifting. A final quantum torpedo strikes the Scorpion on its port side.
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] ::he spoke over the comms to the Galor, moving away from them at his best speed:: You had best learn to judge your foe better! ::a cruel smirk as he cut the comm, and looked to anyone on the bridge:: [ALL] Someone try to
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::Shutters with the adreneline rush she armed the phasers again. Glaring slightly the Generator adding it's power as she fires again. Aiming for life support as the next hits them.::
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: Smoke starts billowing in as structural integrity on the port side is compromised and the impulse on the scorpion dies out.
Ensign JG Verkal:bring our engines back online! ::he yelled, as the ship rocked again, horribly this time ... ::
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] ::: Covers her face, quickly as sparks fly everywhere. She rushes up to the impulse terminal sand checks the situation :::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::Takes readings to see how bad they are.::
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::The impact would rock her harder than ever with the shields on that side down, and she fell to the ground. She gripped the console to haul herself back up and read the panel.:: [All] Hull breach!
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS][All] We're venting atmosphere! Attempting to place emergency forcefields.
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: M'lon comes back on screen.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::She swiped at the pannel clearing away debris. Fingers working in an attempt to seal the breach::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][OPS] Close the emergency bulkhead doors! ::his fingers danced, like they had not done in years, trying to bring propulsion back on line, moving now on thrusters alone as he waited for Ops to open frequencies::
Captain Alex Hunter:[M'lon][All] Good job on my ship. You may have totaled her... but I have one more surprise for you all.
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She cringed at the display:: [All] We have fifteen torpedos heading right for us....
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: A beam under the edge of the bridge starts to glow.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] MOve it now.. Shuttle bay... ::Setting the final burst and firing to take out that glow.::
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: The torpedos whip within meters of the Scorpion and impact on whats left of the venteral side of the Galor I
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: The galor starts to rock and explode as three phaser beams whip up and down on the structure, ripping what's left of it apart.
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][TAC] Liel, shunt power from the generator into shields, and thrusters! ::he yelled, not willing to go out with the ship just yet ... he would run, but only once she had actually moved from her station::
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: The Galor explodes in a mighty blast and shakes the scorpion. Sparks fly down more but then there is a calm.
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::Blink. She had no words. Everyone else would have seen what had happened on the screen, anyway.::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:::{@TAC] ::Rerouts the generator power. The hidden system repowering Shields and the fusion engine.::
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: The hail button bleeps again.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::Reads off the ship that helped them.::
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS][All] Receiving another hail, putting it onscreen. ::She tapped the panel, ignoring the pain in her leg form her fall.::
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: None other than the raven haired captain appears on the screen of the Scorpion.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] ::Looks up at the screen she knew her knee was broken from that second to last jolt.:: [CO] Glad to see your face, Sir.
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][ALL] Sorry we're late. Had a little run in of our own with a Galor.
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][TAC] Good to see you as well, Liel. Are you all okay?
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] Maybe the little Hideki will last for another time ... ::he chuckled, speaking to the CO:: We have some good infomration ... and not a problem, the Scorpion is still in one piece ... if barely
Captain Alex Hunter:[Etti] ::: survived, amazingly without a scratch :::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[@TAC] Fusion generator ... is a good thing.
Ensign Corav Feala:@[OPS] ::She felt almost limp as the tenseness of the battle left her body. No, this was not the Academy.::
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] ::: Climbs up, a little soot and minor cuts on her arms :::
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][ALL] Hold on, I'm having you all beamed to sick bay. We'll tractor in the Scorpion to shuttlebay two.
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:[@AMO] ::Cracks her eyes open pulling up the kit and looked rather pale. A few burns on her face but minor spark damage.::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][CO] Just tell me we'll at least try to repair her ...
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][HELM] We will not repair her. You and Liel will repair her ::: smirks softly. :::
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: After that comment they are all beamed into sickbay, prone onto biobeds.
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS] ::She laughed a little, then was beamed to sickbay.::
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: K'Tor and her staff set to work, healing and mending their wounds.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] I am glad he did that. I do not think I could have walked.
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][CO] ::he was beamed in, glad at least to be safe, and pleased knowing the little ship would have another shot at victory::
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:[AMO] ::Sets to work healing with the rest of the team.::
Captain Alex Hunter:[Etti] ::: Proceeds to the conference lounge :::
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: Their bajoran ridges are removed. All but Feala's, of course.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] She faught well. ::Pride in her voice.::
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS] ::She sighed as one of the medical officers fixed a minor fracture in her femur.:: [TAC][HELM] So what first, the new runabout or the old friend?
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][TAC] We have a lot of repair work to do, and we need more anti matter weapons ... but our little Hideki did well against a very powerful enemy ::he said from his own bed to Liel::
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP] ::: Relaxes slightly, laying back as her ridges are removed :::
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: Hunter walks into the room wearing his class B uniform. He heaves a sigh of relief that all of them are at least alive. He pats Telsia's leg and stands in the center of sickbay.
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][ALL] Some people will do anything to get out of work.
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] ::as a deep, but not threatening fleshwound was closed up in the muscle of his neck, he spoke to Feala:: [OPS] We cannot let our little toy remain wounded
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS] ::She smirked at Zander.::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] [OPS] For us it is both. The Mercury and the Scorion. But we have to make a number of orders for the Scorpion for replacement parts. ::Then laughed hearing Captain Hunter.:: [CO] Yeah just about, Sai.
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][ALL] You all going to make it?
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] ::Has a shattered knee cap from hitting the underside of the consol.:: [CO] I think it is all minor.
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:@[SOP][CO] ::: Gives a thumbs up. She's dosed up on medication right now. :::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][CO] I believe the lot of us will live ... ::he said, sounding oddly pleased for a Cardassian whose ship had been thrashed::
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS][CO] I'll manage. ::Still grinning. She was obviously okay aside form the minor fracture.::
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:[AMO][CO] Yes, sir, most of it is minor. Just a few breaks, cuts, minor burns and bruises. ::Speaking of burns she kept shooing K'Tor away till the others were done before letting her heal the minor burns.::
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][ALL] Good, we'll get the information from you as soon as possible.
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][ALL] Relax fora while, though.
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][SOP] Do you have the item I requested?
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] ::the wound closed he started to brush at his clothing, even if such would not remove the blood stains:: [ALL] We should hold some form of feast to celebrate living
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:[SOP][CO] ::: speech a bit slurred from her over reactiveness to painkillers :: Half I efer let joo down? ::: Clumsily gives him a pouch :::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] ::Sighs a bit she was going to limp for days. Closing her eyes a moment. Worried.::
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][SOP] ::: Takes the pouch, stroking his sister's sweaty forhead dry ::: No, joo haven't.
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] ::he could feel Liel's worry ... she could sense that too ... in so many words he asked her what was wrong::
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: Alex clears all essential personel out of the medical bay.
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][ALL] So ::: Takes a seat in the middle of sickbay ::: What did we find out?
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS] ::She looked around, certain that those in the bar would have dug up something more juicy than she did.::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC]+tele+[Helm] I do not want to disappoint again. I feel I did nothing worth anything.. ::She remained silent letting the others talk. They had the information.::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][CO] That it is wise to watch whom one flirts with in a bar? ::he stated, before responding to Liel "you did wonderfully my dear, still speaking to the captain:: Obvious though it might seem, Cardassia seems to have a hand in
Ensign JG Verkal:this
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS] Hmm. ::She decided to go ahead.:: I talked to a Ferengi Daimon who wanted me for his wife. ::A smirk.:: But he had had some interesting trading experiences to talk about.
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][OPS] I hope you said no, I hear you're taken. What trading experiences?
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS][CO] They bought a large guidance computer from someone... all he told me about them was that they were in a Galor III class vessel. Then they dropped it off with their buyer, a Federation Shuttle named Hermese
Ensign Corav Feala:at the border of Cardassian space.
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][OPS] Are you sure ::: looks at her questioningly ::: A federation shuttle named Hermese. At the border of cardassian space...
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS][CO] That was the best I could get as far as specifics without agreeing to... ::She shuddered at that thought.:: Yes.
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:[SOP][NOIP] Heeeeermese... Heeeeermese ::: sings happily ::: Heeeeremese is Mecuryyyyyy! Heremese is greek, Mercury roman....!
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:[SOP][NOIP] Saaame God... ::: Falls over in a peaceful sleep :::
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS] ::She looked at Telsia with a raised brow.:: [All] Sounds about right... that the Hermese would be a shuttle assigned to the Mercury.
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][SOP] I did not think the battle was severe enough to cause that sort of serious mental strain ... ::he eyed her curiously::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] Seems to me we have our hands full if the Hermies is assigned to the Mercury... and this is bigger than we thought.
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][ALL] That could be true... [HELM] She has an over sensitivity to pain killers. They make her as drunk as a girl on prom night.
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS][All] So is the Galor III our pirates' vessel?
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][OPS] It would seem that way. The Mercury, eh? What would they want from Cardassia?
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:[AMO] Xenexian. What is low to us is sometimes high for them. ::She walked over to TElsia and gave her a treatment to ease the pain medication off.::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] It would seem that Cardassia is making contacts and allies among the CAP...
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][CO[ Alex, rather then asking too much about this, I believe I shall nod, and go along with things ::he smirked, shaking his head, before looking to the CO:: What would they not want? A bitter, humiliated people, perhaps some
Ensign JG Verkal:relic group of the Order, or Central command looking to take control again. There are a great many potential reasons why members of my race would work with the CAP ...
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:[SOP] ::: Comes around from her bout of insanity :::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] The whole of it is. CAP is working with Cardassia that means both are looking for more power to take the Federation on.
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][OPS] Did the Ferengi say what they traded?
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS][CO] Yeah, a guidance computer, like I said. A very large one.
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][TAC] Liel, we don't know that just yet ...
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][ALL] And we already nailed two Galors today... [OPS] A big Guidance computer.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] What did the Ferengi get out of it?
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS][CO] Ayep.
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][ALL] Etti said that the Nausicans were carrying utritium ore.
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS][TAC] All Ferengi ever care about... latinum, I'm sure. They like war as long as thye get to supply both sides.
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:[SOP][ALL] Utritium ::: Holds her head, a universal sign of a headache ::: ore is used in temporal reactions.
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][ALL] Temporal reactions? ::he asked again, not liking where this might be going::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] ::glances to Verkal.:: [HELM] You were saying? Who else is a common enemy of the two and Temporal Reactions... Time.. Temporal means for a short time.
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][TAC] Liel, I know that much ... but what would they want with such a reaction ...
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:[SOP][ALL] Wait. Utritum. Not temporal reactions, quantum reactions.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] Tha is almost as bad. ::Rolls her eyes and closes them.::
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][NOIP] What the hell are they doing. Guidance systems, utritum ore... CAP.... Cardassians?
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][ALL] This could be a SEARIOUS problem
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] They are building weapons.
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] ::he sounded like he might know something ... special on the issue::
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO] ::: Lifts his eyebrow :::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] remote controlled weapons
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS][HELM] Have you put something together that we don't know about, Verkal?
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:[SOP][HELM] What's up?
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] ::WAits to be corrected if she is wrong turning to look at Verkal.::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] This IS Classified ::he declared, before going on:: a long range, tactical weapon ... meant to cause immense damage with disturbingly low cost for the harm done ...
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][HELM] ::: Thinks then his eyes open in terror and realization :::
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO] Utritium is the primary charge used... in.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] We did not go Pirate hunting... we are in the thick of CAP warfare.
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS] ::She looked back and forth from Verkal to Zander:: [CO] In?
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][ALL] ::he went on:: The weapon I am worried about would be atrociously deadly in the hands of the CAP ... if my people have offered them the schematics, we have a serious problem
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][HELM] Could they still have them? We executed raids on their production facilities during the war. I thought they were all destroyed.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] No... they would have plans scattered and hidden like peices of a puzzle. and from the way Verkal is talking... ::She groaned:: This is horrible.
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][CO] As much as I hate to berate my race ... paranoia is a trademark. Do you honestly think a simple raid would be all that was required to wipe the knowledge needed to create long range tactical weapons from our memories?
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:[SOP][ALL] ::: Finally gets it as well :::
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][HELM] It wasn't one raid, it was several. well coordinated and timed... but I should have known better.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC][HELM] What did they call their doomsday weapon, Verkal? ::She asked point blank.Truth or dare.::
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS] ::She knew long range tactical weapons were bad, but they seemed to think this was far worse than she could believe a weapon would be. Then her eyebrows went up.:: [TAC] Not the Dreadnought? I've heard of that....
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][CO] You did battle with Cardassians ... since when did we make matters like that simple? [TAC] All I can give you is a serial number ...
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC][HELM] Give it to me then. ::She said slowly. Her gaze on the ceiling.::
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO] ::: moves to a pannel. After logging into a special database he waits for the number to be called :::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][TAC] GR-987-XT-21. [ALL] I doubt many of you could guess just how ... deeply hidden such information is, and was
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] ::Memorizes the number then "Burries" it.::
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][ALL] Found it...
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS] ::She looked over to Zander.::
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][ALL] This is classified seeing as I'm in the special forces database. I knew we cataloged these.
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][ALL] Dreadnaught Missile MK V
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][ALL] Twenty Tons of matter and anti matter.
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][ALL] Capable of warp speed and is approximately ninety meters in length
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:[SOP][NOIP] Twenty tons?!
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][ALL] the weapon is armed, and shielded ... meant to get by nearly any defense, and obliterate nearly any target ...
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS][HELM] How do you STOP something like that once it's in motion?
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:[SOP][ALL] One thousand kilograms is enough to wipe out a small moon. Twenty tons would destroy an M-Class planet!
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] And they will try to make several....
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][SOP] Exterminating all life on a target world was the idea ::he looked to Fealla:: [OPS] It is meant to ... resist tampering ::he said, though he was thinking of a way by his expression::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] [HELM]How close do you think they are to completing it?
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][NOIP] Are they going for Earth?
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:[SOP][CO] If I had a super weapon, I would
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][TAC] At the moment I cannot answer that ... though maybe I could find out ::he shook his head, looking to the captain:: [CO] The idea is to cut away the stronghold of your enemy. I cannot be certain however
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] ::REtorical question.:: [CO] They will test is somewhere first though, but it sounds like they will go for the planet that houses the federation..
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS] ::Her stomach felt more like a pit of dread. She felt sick.::
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO] ::: Stands up and tells etti exactly whats happened. He orders him to send out a comminuqe' to the fleet and have as many ships as the war will allow sent to protect earth :::
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:[SOP][CO] Alex... think about political motives. The Cardassians seem very involved. If I were them I'd be pretty sore with Bajor.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC][NOIP] I better improve the generator and the couplings... they made planet destroyers. They are going to make more than one.
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] ::he said, his tone almost sad. None save Liel had heard this from him before:: If my fears are true, Cardassia has gotten involved in another war. ::he looked to Telsia:: [SOP] Bajor, Romulus, Qo'nos
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS][SOP] They signed a peace treaty, though... this is Bajor's rebirth... ::She shook her head. Not happening.::
Ensign JG Verkal:the list of worlds my people now have reason to begrudge goes on ...
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:[SOP][OPS] The pheonix may come crashing back down to the ashes which birtheed it.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] [ALL] Bajor may be the test planet and a warning. ::She allowed again speaking to the air.::
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][ALL] Why... the planet in and of itself is of no strategic value. I'd destroy deep space nine.
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:[SOP][CO] The planet isn't but it shows their power to destroy a world. Just the idea that they're serious.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] Cardassians like their toys. They would want the station back.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] The point is. There are alot of Cardassians about today would not you agree, Sai?
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][CO] That depends ... revenge can be a powerful motivation for my people ... it depends on their aims. Deep Space Nine could be a target ... though as Liel says they might wish to take control of Terok Nor ::he said this name
Ensign JG Verkal:to make a point ... many of his people did see it as their station still:: I cannot be certain however
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][ALL] We must now allow Bajor or Earth to become targets.
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][ALL] All other concerns are secondary.
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][ALL] As soon as you are done resting here, let's get into Bajoran orbit.
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][CO] Then we must destroy those members of the CAP, and those members of the Union who seek to rebuild this weapon
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] That means all hands are in to getting the ships repaired as well. The Scorpion has modifications that will help and you have to admit. That Galon would have gone at the same time. She will be usefull.
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO] ::: Walks over to Feala, and gives her a reassuring hug. She looks shaken... her peoples future may rest on all of theiur shoulders :::
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS] ::Shaken would be an understatement in this case. She was pale.::
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:[SOP] ::: nods ::: [HELM][TAC] I'm going to the bridge.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] We Will Stay The Course and See It Through. ::They had their orders and they would follow.::
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:[SOP] ::: Stands quickly, not bothering to change into her uniform. She'd handle OPS and SOPS until Corav was better. She walked down the corridor at a brisk pace to the turbo lift :::
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][OPS] ::: Holding her close ::: Hey, it's going to be okay. Nothing will happen to Bajor.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] We willna let it, Sai. ::She was determined, angry.::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][TAC] Liel, do you feel able to get to the bridge? We're about to do something we never thought we would ... defend Bajor ::he smirked, standing::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC][HELM] Have I ever let you down? ::She blinked getting on her feet testing her ability to walk.::
Crewman Recruit Telsia Hunter:[SOP] ::: Points to the Operations officer of the watch ::: [EOPS] Get in touch with DS9, tell them what's going on.
Captain Alex Hunter:[EOPS][SOP] Aye, ma'am.
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][TAC] Never my dearest ... ::he started to walk along with Liel::
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS][CO] I hope that's true. ::She just leaned her head against him. Sigh. She should be doing her duty regardless, but this....::
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:[AMO] So we are going to be here for a long while? ::She sounded neutral.::
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][OPS] Don't worry. We mangled two Galors. We can do this. ::: rubs her back ::: Okay?
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS][CO] Yeah. ::She stood from the biobed she'd been sitting on.:: Okay.
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][OPS] Woooah, wait one second. ::: holds her back by the hand :::
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS][CO] Hmm? ::She still felt like she was going to be sick.::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] ::Limping along. Her arm linked into his. She had to take it somewhat easy.::
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO] ::: Takes the pouch from a biobed across the room and smiles at her softly ::: [OPS] I wanted you to have this... because... well, you know what it's for. ::: Pulls out a silver Bajoran pledge braclet :::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM] ::he helped Liel to the bridge, glad to be back on a ship that *worked* as it were::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC][HELM] We were not even in top condition and we matched her. ::Smiling a bit.::
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: The bridge is electric. It's the first time they have seen the Avalon on full war footing. Her crew is moving with purpose and they can see yellow lights flashing everywhere.
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][TAC] We survived her Liel ... we must ... improve if we are to match our foes ... ::he looked about, noticing the sharp change in the environment::
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: The image of normal, calm space has been replaced by real time tactical data of everything coming in and out of the sector, thanks to Telsia's call to DS9. The ships stationed around the installation have moved into
Captain Alex Hunter:a peremiter around bajor.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC][HELM] We were going to take her down with us. That ... is matching. ::She watched the hustle taking over Tactical to see what had been going on.::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC][NOIP] These next few weeks are going to be very long indeed. ::She arranged the data so that it was comfortable to her.::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][TAC] Next time we should try to ... win
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC][HELM] Then we better get the Scorpion up and running and the Generator in here.
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][TAC] I am afraid I must concur
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] ::Scans the debris from the fight her head down slightly.:: [HELM] Nearly everything is going to need to be replaced or upgraded.
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][TAC] at least we might be able to obtain a few Federation parts
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS] ::Despite the sick feeling in her stomach, seeing the bracelet made her smile, if weakly.:: [CO] So this is what Telsia brought back for you....
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] ::Nods pursing her lips.:: [HELM] Will you get what we need or should I?
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][OPS] ::: Smiles softly and puts it around her wrist ::: A token of my love for you... I was told that this is what I should get to show it.
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][TAC] I believe we should both work on obtaining the needed parts ::there was a small smile::
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS] ::She nodded, still smiling, as she looked at the bracelet on her wrist.:: [CO] Thank you, Zander. ::Feala reached up and put her arms around his neck.::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC][HELM] Then we better get started. We need to have this baby working in no time as well as our little runabout and The Generator put in. We are going to need to over see several TEAMS.
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][OPS] We're going to win this. Our crew has never backed down. And as soon as we win, I'm going to take a day off and go down with you to meet your parents in your village which will still be there, okay?
Captain Alex Hunter:::: Wraps his arms around her waist :::
Crewman Recruit Brigid Lea:[AMO] ::Sits in the med bay office writing out a transmission to send as soon as they were in Orbit about the station.::
Ensign JG Verkal:[HELM][TAC] I might as well start searching for what we require ... ::he smiled at Liel, starting to work from his console:: ((need to get a shower, and get ready for tomorrow, be back asap))
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS] ::She just nodded.:: [CO] That would be nice.
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO] ::: Wishes he could reassure her more :::
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS] ::She sighed.:: [CO] Shouldn't we be on the bridge or something?
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] ::Works recalibrating the weapons system. Trying to decide what she wanted on the Scorpion and where exactly to put the Fusion Generator.::
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][OPS] Actually, I'll be heading to the CIC. You should be on the bridge though. ::: Smiles half heartidly. He's obviously troubled by her worry :::
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS] ::She nodded.:: [CO] Okay. Shall we, then?
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][OPS] ::: nods :::
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO] ::: Begins to walk down the corridor. He turns around in the lift as soon as he enters :::: [TL] Deck Two.
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO] ::: Holds the door for Feala :::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC]=/\=[CO] Sir, I was wondering.... if you would allow me at least two teams to rotate to get all our projects done. ::She sounded thoughtfull.:
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS] ::She followed him into the same lift.:: [CO] Thanks. ::As the doors closed, her fingers played at his hand.::
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO]=/\=[TAC] We're only worried about defending the planet. ::: His hand reaches over and holds hers ::: The scorpion and others can wait till we're done.
Captain Alex Hunter:ACTION: The lift stops at deck 2.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] ::A small groan.:: =/\=[CO] The Scorpion would offer a bit of another advantage, Sir, but as you wish.
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][OPS] This is my stop.
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][OPS] Nothing will get by us. I promise.
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS] ::She nodded and leaned up to give him a quick kiss before the doors opened, then a soft smile.:: [CO] I believe you.
Captain Alex Hunter:[CO][OPS] ::: Nods smiling then proceeds up the centerline to the command tier, already giving orders from the other center seat :::
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS][TL] Bridge.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] ::Shifts a bit restlessly at her station her knee aching a bit despite being healed.::
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS] ::She exited onto the bridge, offering a weak smiled to Liel and Verkal. Yes, she believed Zander, but she still didn't feel very good about this.::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] ::Looks uncomfortable standing a bit lopsided. Looks up at Feala. A ghost of a smile.::
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS] ::She went to her station, did her usual checks, and then turned back toward them in her chair.:: [TAC] You okay?
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC] ::Nods a little bit.::[OPS] Just a little sore still. It will go away.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC][OPS] Will you be okay? ::She murmured softly knowing the feeling of fearing to lose your family.::
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS] ::She nodded.:: [TAC] I believe Zander when he says he's not going to let anything happen.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC][OPS] You are not the only one to believe him. We will stay the course and see it through. ::She smiled a little bit.::
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS] ::She smiled a bit more warmly this time and showed Liel her wrist with the pledge bracelet.:: [TAC] Look.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC][OPS] OOoooh I am so happy for you. Prettier than my Romulan Disruptor. ::She giggled moving closer with a limp to look.::
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS] ::She held the wrist with the silver bracelet out.::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC][OPS] Beautiful... ::Smiling a bit softly. Then hugs her gently with that same sisterly affection.::
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS] ::She smiled.:: [TAC] It was really sweet of him to ask Telsia to pick one of these up...
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS] ::A sigh, then, as she leaned on Liel's hug a little, then sat back up in her chair. All she could do was hope.::
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC][OPS] With me, you, Verkal, Zander and the others we will not fail.::Releases her slowly standing up.::
Ensign Corav Feala:[OPS][TAC] I know. ::She laughed morosely.:: I think.
Ensign JG Liel Andora:[TAC][OPS] Believe... ::She whispered. Liel's odd silver eyes meeting hers. She believed they would succeed.:: By any means...
