Just to be on the safe side. I'd also recommend a gravimetric scan. We may have run into a singularity or other spacial anomaly that could've caused the malfunction." Darla nodded. "Could be a possibility. We can't afford to leave anything out. Make it happen, and if you can think of anything else that needs to be reviewed or tested, let me know." (reply Eion) Daniel Greene (USS Hades - Secondary Computer Core - ACEO Ensign Eoin Mac Liam - 09:37) Eoin patted the ancillary component next to him,"I think that the ancillary components could use a thorough inspection. Just to be on the safe side. I'd also recommend a gravimetric scan. We may have run into a singularity or other spacial anomaly that could've caused the malfunction." Darla nodded. "Could be a possibility. We can't afford to leave anything out. Make it happen, and if you can think of anything else that needs to be reviewed or tested, let me know." "Aye, ma'am." Eoin turned to Solkar, and nodded at him to take care of it. He wiped his brow. It had only been ten minutes since he'd "gotten" to the computer core, but it was hard work nonetheless. "After this is finished, we need to go out for a drink. All of us." (reply Wright, any) (posted by Spencer) (USS Hades - Secondary Computer Core - Engineering CPO Malcolm Saul - 10:14) Meyer blinked. Malcolm must have taken a bit by surprise. "Well, we have the entire resources of the station at our disposal. What we need is where you want us to start. My plan? Well... let's get this thing fixed. Perhaps I can leave a small team here to help the Lieutenant, and we can look at the immediate secondary systems that will be affected by the repair. We can get a jump start on those so that when we reboot the main computers they'll be ready to bring on line immediately." Malcolm nodded. "Very well. Would you and your team like to remain here to assess the damage, or would you like to return to the station and coordinate from there?" (reply Meyer, Wright, any) (posted by Spencer) (DS15- Base Ops- Starbase CO- Captain William Nelson- 1038) Nelson was sure of one thing. he was glad that he was not Mil Nicolae at this moment. Straton looked as though she could chew deuterium. She also looked as though that were not an unusual activity for her. He moved around the station watching the progress of the work crews heading towards the Hades. He had been careful about who had assigned to the interior repair crew. They were not ready to take action... yet. The doors to his office opened and Nicolae stepped out, followed by his CO. He didn't look any worse for the ware, but he was certain that he would be paying for his transgression for a long time. As the young officer walked by he looked up at Nelson and nodded. There was a slight twinkle in his eye. ::Its time for me to start Brother:: Nelson made an effort not to look at Nicolae, but rather at Straton. ::Ward yourself Brother. The time for revealing is not now. Your mission is set. Just be and in time all will be set in motion.:: "Captain Straton," he said to the starship CO, "I trust that we will see each other again, soon. I look forward to hearing about our invitation." (reply Straton) (posted by Al Muir) (USS Hades - Secondary Computer Core - DS15 Engineer- Lt. Dustin Meyer- 10:13) Meyers was amazed at the scope of what the Hades CEO's project. When she had ordered the Chief the lieason, Dustin wasn't sure if he was gratified or put out. "Sir," Saul said, "if you could fill me in on what resources you and your team would need, and what your plan is for this, I can get started with facilitating this joint project." Meyer blinked, "Well, we have the entire resources of the station at our disposal. What we need is where you want us to start. My plan? Well... let's get this thing fixed. Perhaps I can leave w small team here to help the Lieutenant, and we can look at the immediate secondary systems that will affected by the repai. We can get a jump start on those so that when we reboot the main computers they'll be ready to bring on line immediately." (reply Saul, Wright) (posted by Al Muir) (USS Hades - FO's Office - aFO- Lt. Commander Bohb- 1030) Bohb sat behind his desk staring into the monitor that was watching the repair crew embark. He tried to see each and every face and note if there was anything out of the ordinary. So far everything looked eerily normal. Then the door chime rang. "Enter," he called out and watched as the Vulcan security officer entered. "Mr. T'Sol," Bohb said with a nod, "report." (reply T'Sol) (posted by Al Muir) (USS Hades - FO's Office - SO, Ensign T'Sol- 1032) T'Sol didn't have to wait very long before the First officer called out for her to enter his office. The door slid aside almost silently and the vulcan officer stepped across the threshold with no wasted time. She positioned herself directly in front of Commander Bohb's desk. "Mr. T'Sol, " he said with a nod, "report." T'Sol returned the slight nod as she launched into a summary of her observations. She explained how she had found the behavior and actions of the Station security officer "abnormal" at the gangplank. She further explained her observation concerning his complete lack of interest in maintaining a secured docking point with the Hades, and how he had even suggested that there was no need for a security detail on the gang plank at all. Then she switched to her observations concerning the somewhat sloppy attempts to shadow the few members of the Hades crew as they moved about the station. She summed up her suspicions with a logical argument. "If there was nothing to be concerned with, then the effort to follow our personnel when they disembarked would not be a logical or rational action. It is therefore reasonable to conclude that there is something that is obscured and that someone in the security chain of command or higher, has a vested interest in maintaining that obfuscation. If such were not the case, then there would be no need for station security personnel to shadow Hades crew members to report on their activities, or to be close-by should one of them stumble upon something that someone else would rather prefer remain concealed." "When you take into account the possibility that the runabout attack made upon the station could be related, there exists a reasonable possibility that something is not as it should be on this station." (reply Bohb) Daniel Greene (USS Hades - FO's Office - SO, Ensign T'Sol- 1034) Bohb listened carefully to the Vulcan security officers report. Although it all sounded odd, there was nothing conclusive that there was anything amiss further than any, for lack of a better term, especially when dealing with a Vulcan, a feeling that something was amiss. Certainly, there was a lack of discipline. But that may well be Captain Nelson's style of command. He had spent some time going over the good captain's service record, and it was certainly quite a distinguished career. He was a decorated hero of the "civil war" several times over. He commanded three different ships since the war, each a progressively more distinguished mission after the other. He, single handedly, prevented an outbreak of war in Sector 2137. Which led to his current assignment on DS15. This was supposed a jump off point to the admiralty. Those did not seem to be the results of a CO with a issue with discipline. Although, from what the CO said, he was quite charismatic and welcoming. As T'Sol put it, "something was not as it should be." Bohb leaned back in his chair and sighed. Then he stood up. "Thank you Ensign," Bohb said. "I'd like you to monitor the progress of the repair crews from the station. I don't know what this is, this sense of wrongness, but at this time we can't afford to trust anyone." (reply T'Sol) (posted by Al Muir) (DS15 – CO office – Ensign Mil Nicolae – 10:35) Mil stood and looked at his new Captain as she lay out his punishment for the next month. “Instead there will be a letter of reprimand placed in your permanent file. Furthermore, you will pull double duty shifts for the next month.” The words rang in his head but they didn’t seem to worry him too much. What would make a new officer quake, the thought of a permanent punishment for the rest of his career didn’t affect him. Deep inside Mil could feel the pain, but upfront it was dull. His mind wondered away for a few moments lost in different thoughts, all with one need one goal. “Now, go gather your gear and report to the Hades within the hour. Dismissed Ensign." The Captain finished and Mils concentration returned to the room. The power and need within him surged ~if only I could do it……no Mil, not your place leave it to the others~. Even his thoughts weren’t his own but they drove him. “Yes Captain. Ma’am.” He nodded and walked past the woman and out to the Ops room. (USS Hades - FO's Office - SO, Ensign T'Sol- 1036) "Thank you Ensign," Bohb said. "I'd like you to monitor the progress of the repair crews from the station. I don't know what this is, this sense of wrongness, but at this time we can't afford to trust anyone." "I concur, sir." T'Sol stated, "Considering the lack of discipline, I find it possible that agents of any interested foreign power may find the opportunity to infiltrate the station or the hades potentially irresistible. I will see to it that we maintain the highest levels of security possible." (reply Bohb iyw) "Understood sir. If there is nothing else, May I be dismissed?" Receiving her permission to carry out her orders, T'Sol turned and headed for the security offices. It was a good place to monitor the ship's security systems as well as the repair team from the station. (reply Bohb iyw) Daniel Greene (DS15 – Ops – Ensign Mil Nicolae – 10:37) The doors shut behind him and Mil looked across the room to Captain Nelson, he nodded ::Its time for me to start Brother:: (Reply Nelson IYW) Mil walked towards the turbo lift and took it to the guest quarters. (DS15 – Gangplank – Ensign Mil Nicolae – 10:50) After having picked up his duffel bag and disposing of the PADD he had stored Mil was stood facing a member of his new crew waiting to gain access to the Hades. “Ensign Nicolae requesting permission to board.” He handed the security officer a PADD with his orders on. Nodding he walked passed the guards and onto the ship. He headed right for the 1st turbo lift. (USS Hades – Deck 4 – Officers Quarters – Ensign Mil Nicolae – 10:55) Mil left the turbo lift and looked around the deck. Walking up to the computer console on the wall he pressed the screen on and followed the arrows to his quarters. He stood outside his new home and entered his code to access the room. The doors slid open and Mil strode in. (USS Hades – Deck 4 – Quarters – Ensign Mil Nicolae – 11:00) The doors shut leaving the room in the darkness of space. “Computer, Lights.” Mil commanded and the shadows that were starting to form disappeared. He moved to the bedroom and slung his duffel bag onto the bed. Looking around Mil took off his tunic and threw that down as well. His personal effects had been placed in his quarters by a crewman some time before. He went to unpack the books and other effects but something inside pulled him away from this task. This wasn’t what he was here for. The Doctors treatment was still having an effect on him. Feeling torn inside Mil sat in the chair and closed his eyes. (USS Hades- FO's Office – aFO- Lt. Commander Bohb - 1105) Lt. Trinan's call brought Bohb a welcome relief from his observations. =^=We are ready to begin our R&R now.=^= "Understood Lieutenant," Bohb replied, accepting the code word for their mission being ready to go. It seemed, at this moment, a bit immature, but he was excited by it at first. It seemed so secret agent like. "Be careful Mr. Trinan. We don't want anyone to realize what we are up to." =^=Understood. Have fun.=^= ~Have fun? Doing what? They're having all of the fun.~ He went back to his monitor feeling just a little jealous. (reply none) (posted by Al Muir) (USS Hades, Ready Room, CSO/2O Bracken, 11:15)     "I am willing," Eva continued a moment later, her voice returning to its normal tone.  "to let you take point on attempting to re-establish contact with your mother as it seems the most logical route.  When she contacts you again, I want you to let me know immediately.  Your mother and I will need to talk.  The sooner we can eliminate your mother or her mission as a potential threat, we can focus on our actual mission and the real threat.  Do you understand?"   Dale nodded, all meaning implicit in what was both said, and inferred. “Understood Sir. With your permission, I’ll need to get on and begin to set something up for the next shift change, and bring Ensign T’Sol in on this if I may, necessary security of course.   NRPG: I’m assuming here that Trinin is on the undercover mission – if this is wrong let me know.   RPG:   (Reply Straton)   Dale turned and left the ready room,   As she left the ready room, Dale tapped her commbadge, “Bracken to T’Sol. Please report to my office at the earliest opportunity. (Reply T’Sol) “Understood, Bracken out.” (USS Hades, Security Offices, SO, Ensign T'Sol, 1120) T'Sol had been monitoring the repair teams with no real indication that there was any ulterior motives or actions being undertaken by the station personnel. In fact they seemed to be working efficiently, alongside Hades security and Engineering personnel without any signs of obfuscation. This observation was disparate with the actions that she had witnessed with the security personnel aboard the station. Perhaps whatever was going on was limited to station security personnel. She didn't have much time to ruminate about those thoughts before her commbadge chirped. =^= Bracken to T’Sol. Please report to my office at the earliest opportunity. =^= T'Sol considered her options and deciding that further surveillance in this manner was unlikely to be fruitful, she determined that she should undertake another line of observation. Besides it was possible that Bracken had some valuable information for her. The Vulcan realized that she should put into place an automated means of maintaining her observation of the station repair team, if only to confirm that there was nothing unusual underway. She tapped her commbadge. "T'Sol here, sir. I will be able to meet with you in 25 minutes. I am conducting a task for the captain. Will that be acceptable?" With confirmation received, T'Sol put her monitoring program into place.   (USS Hades – Deck 4 – Quarters – Ensign Mil Nicolae – 11:40) Mil awoke feeling stronger and surer of what he was here for. The slightly frail Bajoran inside was hidden away and he had taken over. Instinct driven he stood and pulled his tunic back on. Ignoring the personal effects still to be unpacked he walked to the table in the other part of the quarters. Sitting down he activated the computer and started downloading the ships plans and crew listings to a nearby PADD…all to help with his mission at hand. NPRG: All his own access level…no hacking now!! RPG: The computer beeped to show that the download was complete. Mill Picked up the PADD and walked out the room. (DS15- Crew Quarters- CSEC/CTAC, Lt. Baylon Trinin 1141) Katsurou and he had gone out of their way to take the longest most circuitous route that they could to the quarters of Commander Stevenson. The long meandering had the benefit of allowing them to identify if they were being followed in any way. Baylon did not find it particularly surprising that they weren't being tailed; after all, they were nothing more than religious monks exploring the station. He had managed to make some observations, primarily that members of the Hades staff that were aboard station seemed to have all acquired a tail of some sort. They weren't professionals by any means, not the kind of people that were training in shadowing a target through crowds without making themselves obvious, at least not to the trained eye. Why station personnel would go so far out of their way to follow Starfleet Personnel, while neglecting other visitors was something of a mystery, that set Baylon's instincts on edge. As suspected the Commander's quarter's had been sealed with an electronic lock; in this case a device designed to interrupt the power flow to the door mechanism and thereby prevent easy entry. The Hades' security chief motioned to his compatriot, indicating that he should disable the security monitor and then disengage the interruption mechanism in the lock, so that they could gain entry to the Commander's quarters beyond. The corridor was empty for the time being, but that could change fairly quickly, which meant that baylon needed to play the part of the lookout while Katsurou handled the technical work. As his associate went about his work, Baylon stepped a few feet down the corridor and extended his mental feelers in anticipation of detecting anyone long before they reached their position. He wasn't trying to mentally scan a large area of the station, but just a few feet. Even so, within that short period of time, he could detect the emotions of persons undertaking several different activities just behind some of the doors leading to the corridors surrounding the commander's quarters. Knowing that the inhabitants of those rooms could stumble upon them at any time, Baylon turned and whispered to his compatriot.   "How's it coming?"   (reply Katsurou) Daniel Greene (USS Hades, CSO’s Office, CSO/2O Bracken, 1143) Dale looked up and bade T’Sol enter. “Sit, please.” “Computer, close and lock door.” The computer beeped an acknowledgement, and Dale waited a few seconds before speaking further. She held up her hand motioning T’Sol to silence, “Ensign, what I’m about to tell you does not leave this room, and is to be taken as Highly Classified.” (Reply T’Sol) (Posted by Mark) (USS Hades, CSO’s Office, SO, Ensign T'Sol, 1146) T'Sol arrived as promised and reached out to pressed the enunciator that notified Lieutenant Bracken that she had arrived. Bracken bade her enter and T'Sol stepped into the office. She had no sooner crossed the threshold before Bracken had asked her to sit. The second officer then proceeded to seal and lock the door to the office. T'Sol raised an eyebrow. She settled into the offered chair. Bracken held up her hand motioning T’Sol to silence, "Ensign, what I’m about to tell you does not leave this room, and is to be taken as Highly Classified." "I understand, sir." T'Sol replied. Her curiosity would have been piqued had she been a human security officer. As it was, she realized that the information would most likely have something to do with the station personnel. Or at least that was her limited line of thought at this very moment. "I can assure you that I will not divulge any information that you are going to provide to me." (reply Bracken) Daniel Greene (USS Hades, Main Engineering, ATT Lt. Commander Zzt, 11:45) Zzt rushed through the doors to Main Engineering nearly running over a repair team that was heading out the door. Apologizing profusely, Zzt stepped around them and sniffed the air easily catching the sent of the person he wanted to talk too. PADD in paw, Zzt made a bee line for CEO Wright. "Pssst," Zzt said much too loudly as he approached Lt. Wright. Zzt waved his paw beckoning Wright to follow him as he looked around suspiciously. (Reply Wright) "Come. Zzt find something," Zzt said, stepping toward Wright's office. Zzt let Wright enter first then stepped in behind her and closed and locked the door behind him. "Zzt been looking into power surge that blow computer core," Zzt said getting right to the point. "Zzt no think it accident, but sabotage." Zzt held out the PADD he was holding and shook it in front of Wright's face. "Look. See what Zzt find." (Reply Wright, Any) (posted by Wes) (USS Hades – DECK 4 – Officers Quarters – Ensign Mil Nicolae – 11:47) Mil walked along the corridor following the map he had just downloaded, he knew the one place he could find out all he needed and was intent on getting there without distraction. He walked back to the turbo lift. Pressing the call button he stood watching the officers and crewmen walk around the deck. He urged to follow one and strike but knew the time would come soon. The doors opened. Mil stood in the doorway waiting for the heavyset Ensign to vacate the lift. Realizing this wasn’t going to happen Mil entered. (USS Hades, Main Engineering, CEO, Lieutenant Darla Wright 1148) Darla had returned back to the Main Engineering compartment mostly to avoid looking too interested in the situation and botching something. As a result she was looking over a series of power flow readings at the EPS Distribution Grid Console. She had just verified that the power relays were off-line as they should be when she suddenly heard an over-anxious "Pssst," coming from over her shoulder. She turned and couldn't help but see Lieutenant commander Zzt towering there. ~Oh great~, she thought, ~What is it now?~ The oversized teddy bear seemed to be looking around nervously as he beaconed to her. "What in the name of all that is good and just is going on Commander?" she asked him as he led her to her office. "Come. Zzt find something," Zzt said. He gestured for her to enter, which she did. The massive Starfleet Officer squeezed himself into the office behind her. She deftly maneuvered herself around her desk. "Zzt been looking into power surge that blow computer core," Zzt said getting right to the point. ~Oh no~, Darla immediately thought. "Zzt no think it accident, but sabotage."Zzt held out the PADD he was holding and shook it in front of Wright's face. "Look. See what Zzt find." Darla reached out and took the shaking display device and accessed the files. The data was thorough, but hardly completely conclusive. It was however very suspicious. She made a sour face, not so much because of the data that she was seeing, that was to be expected, but because she was now in a position that she didn't want to be in. The Captain and First Officer had been very clear on mission security. She wasn't authorized to tell Zzt everything, despite his intellect and incredible engineering skills, she didn't know that he wouldn't inadvertently blunder and reveal some critical piece of information that would cause a problem for them later. "This data IS suspicious." Darla stated and then paused for a moment, "but hardly conclusive as sabotage. Whom else have you shown this data to?" (reply Zzt) Daniel Greene (USS Hades – Deck 4 – Turbolift – Ensign Mil Nicolae – 11:53) “Deck 10” Mil commanded. The Human Ensign that Mil was sharing the lift with kept looking at him. Eventually Mil looked up at the face, he had seen this face before but was unsure as to where. “Can I help you Ensign?” Mil asked taking a step back so to get the officers frame in view. (Reply Dragovar) “I’m sorry, I don’t believe we’ve met, you must have me confused with someone else.” (Reply Dragovar) “Oh yes………the Academy. I wasn’t aware anyone from the year was to be assigned to this ship as well. I’m sorry Ensign this is my deck; I hope you settle in.” (Reply Dragovar) The turbolift stopped and the doors opened. Mil strode out onto the deck and looked back at the PADD he headed to his stalking ground. (USS Hades- Ten Forward - CMO Angeni O. Windsong-Trommashere- 1155) Angeni checked her hair in her mirror one more time. She hoped to cath Harry for a quick lunch, so she sat at their normal table, way in the back near one of the windows. She sipped at a Shirley Temple, the marachino cherries frozen in the ice cubes just the way she liked them. As she looked around, waiting for Harry, she saw Hawkeye. Gesturing to him, she waved for him to come over. "Hey Hawk, got a minute?" (Reply Hawkeye) Angeni smiled, wrapping her friend in a hug. She sat down and ordered him an unsweetened iced tea, no lemon, and she smiled as she waited for it to be brought over. "I have a proposition for you, Hawk." (Reply Hawkeye) "This is Secret Squirrel stuff. Catch my drift?" She waited for his acknowedgement and she lowered her voice, stirring the ice in her glass. "There's some strange stuff going on this station. After talking to Commander Straton, she needs medical to look at the medical files. We need to get as much information from that sickbay as humanly possible. I have a few ideas, but I'm willing to entertain yours." (Reply Hawkeye) (Posted by Kari) (USS Hades – Deck 4 – Turbolift – Ensign Tallac Dragovar – 11:56)   Dragovar leaned against the wall of the turbolift as is sped towards sickbay, the light blinked to indicate it was stopping.  The doors opened with the usual swoosh and a familiar face walked in.  “Deck 10” Mil commanded.   Dragovar looked down at the ensign and smiled. “Hey, how are you ?”  “Can I help you Ensign?” Mil asked taking a step back so to get the officers frame in view.   “I’m Tallac Dragovar.” Dragovar said in mild surprise   “I’m sorry, I don’t believe we’ve met, you must have me confused with someone else.”   “We were at the academy together.” Dragovar felt slightly stupid at that statement, how could he not remember him?   “Oh yes………the Academy. I wasn’t aware anyone from the year was to be assigned to this ship as well. I’m sorry Ensign this is my deck; I hope you settle in.”   “Yeah, you too.” Dragovar said with a little trepidation and the confusion was clear in his voice   The turbolift stopped and the doors opened. Mil strode out onto the deck and looked back at the PADD he headed to his stalking ground.   “Weird.” Dragovar muttered to himself. “We were in several classes together and he doesn’t seem to remember me.”  “Must be the trouble he got into on the station distracting him.”   Realising he was talking to himself, he smiled “First sign of madness”. The doors pinged open and he strode out towards sickbay.    (posted by Tim) (reply any) (USS Hades- Ten Forward - ACMO Ensign Hawkeye Dolphine- 1157) Hawkeye had spent the better part of the day going over medical charts and putting the final touches on his newest Con_Ed class for the field medics when he decided to head to Ten Forward for lunch. He had a craving for a good cheesesteak with mushrooms, lettuce, tomatoes, onions and orion chipolte mayo. He no sooner entered the lounge when he saw Angeni sitting at a table by herself. She then waved at him and asked him to join her. "Hey Hawk, got a minute?" For you, I think I can make the time." Hawkeye said with a smile. He reached out to give his friend a hug. Angeni smiled, wrapping her friend in a hug. She sat down and ordered him an unsweetened iced tea, no lemon, and she smiled as she waited for it to be brought over. "I have a proposition for you, Hawk." "Uh-oh. What did I do this time? If this is about that incident involving Chase and the change that was made to his holodeck 'Friend' I swear I had nothing to do with it." Hawkeye said with a smile. As he did that, his iced tea showed up. He looked up at the waiter and thanked her for the drink. "This is Secret Squirrel stuff. Catch my drift?" She waited for his acknowedgement and she lowered her voice, stirring the ice in her glass. He could tell by the tone of her voice that this was serious. "I got ya,hun. Whats on your mind?" Hawkeye asked, slowly sipping his iced tea. "There's some strange stuff going on this station. After talking to Commander Straton, she needs medical to look at the medical files. We need to get as much information from that sickbay as humanly possible. I have a few ideas, but I'm willing to entertain yours." Hawkeye took a deep sigh and ran his hand across his chin. "Well, we could try the usual computer hack method, but that would draw some serious attention, so probabbly not. There is something we could try. From what I have heard, there is a new patient charting system being implemented on board the USS Lexington. I know that they want to change the way that we input patient treatment details. If we were able to get a look at how they were charting on board the station, under the guise of trying to update their charting system, we might be able to gain access to their medical files. The issue would be downloading the patient charts without causing the station computer to shut us out. If we had access codes from either the CMO or an ACMO on board the station we might be able to pull that off. Ideally it would be best to have assistance from someone on board the station.That being said who could we use? But that's just a thought. What do you have in mind?" (Reply Angeni) (Posted By Ben) (USS Hades- Ten Forward - CMO Angeni O. Windsong-Trommashere- 1159) Angeni chewed thoughtfully on an ice cube as she listened to him. The frozen cherry burst in her mouth as she listened. "That sounds like a plan. Worst case scenario, I was thinking about asking to access the files and see who would be compatable with the drugs we were using in the holodeck. I'd like to do more testing on it, and the use of the computer to find out who has the proper tags in their DNA would be an idea. I don't know any people on DS15. My last contact left the station almost a full year ago. Other than that, I'm tapped." She scratched her head, trying to come up with another idea. "I will try and set up a meeting with the CMO on the station. If you want, why don't you head on over, scope things out. I have duty until 1600, so it's not like I can be over there, but you're done at what...1300?" (Reply Hawk) Angeni rubbed her temples, a weak smile on her face. "I've been busy and not sleeping well. You know how it goes. I forsee a trip to Risa here in the future if I can drag myself away long enough. Maybe I can drag Harry with me. If you can find someone to be with long enough, maybe you can join us. Then again, you display a Horga'hn long enough...Jamaharon may be your ticket to putting a lasting smile on your face." She winked at him, smiling, "Hey, what happened to that crazy b....woman you were with? Jackie? Jay'ci?...Janice....?Jamie! She was insane! I will never forget the day she ended up in the ED after drinking too much Wio'ja Berry juice and going on the worst trip of her life..."

He ordered a drink from the bar followed by an Earth dish of Haggis and Potatoes…unsure why this dish had stood out he took the food to a table and eat. Watching the crew his eyes went from the avaible records on his PADD and back to the room. Mil watched the interaction of the crew and singled out a young female science officer. He looked at the PADD, she showed no signs of tactical training so when the time came, very little opposition. The LT worked in the labs and would make an excellent addition to the family. He knew there would be time before this needed to happen but kept watching the officer. Eventually she left and Mil continued observing the room when a Civilian walked in, scrolling through the records of all Civilians on board he soon recognized him as the Captains husband ~perfect~. Mil changed the screen on the PADD to show the ships layout as Stolev moved towards his table. (Reply Dragovar, Reply Stolev, Reply any in room) (Posted by Mat Hodson) (USS Hades- Ten Forward - SciO Ensign Harry Doorman- 1203) Harry stepped into Ten Forward like a man on a mission. He hated being late to anything especially when that thing was a date with Angeni. He had managed to get himself caught up in a series of interesting repeating divergent equations, which seemed to be needed for some life cycle analysis for the botany department. When he had realized his tardiness, he had made all due haste to Ten Forward with the intention of apologizing profusely. Thankfully, when he spotted her, she was engaged in conversation with Hawkeye, a friend of hers from the Medical department. Harry made his way over to the table, reaching it during a lull in whatever conversation was in progress. "Heya Ang, sorry I'm so late." he said as he slipped into the seat next to her. "Hawkeye, nice to see you again." he added for the benefit of the other Doctor. "I was caught up in some equations again. Interesting stuff for the Botany department." He explained. There was a moment of silence. "Sorry," he said catching a sense of something unstated, "is this a bad time? Should I come back later?" (reply Angeni, Hawkeye) Daniel Greene (USS Hades- Sickbay- ACMO Ensign Hawkeye Dolphine- 1230.5) “I’m here for a medical. Who is Lieutenant Hawkeye please?” Hawkeye looked up from his pad and heard the doors open. He walked over and greeted the Ensign with a handshake and I smile. "I am Ensign Hawkeye Dolphine. Nice to meet you and you are?" Hawkeye asked. (Reply Dragovar) "Welcome aboard Ensign. I am sure you will enjoy your time aboard the Hades. Where was your previous duty station Ensign?" Hawkeye asked. (Reply Dragovar) I see. Well I dont want to keep you here any longer than absoultely required so if you will follow me into the main treatment area, I will be happy to assist you. WHat brings you into sickbay Ensign?" Hawkeye asked. (Reply Dragovar) (Posted by Ben) (USS Hades - Ten Forward - Civ Aleksander Stolev - Day 5 - 1231) Sasha stepped into Ten Forward, having left the children in the care of Eva's aunt, and glanced around the room for the new security ensign Eva had recommended he take to the station with him. After a moment he spotted the man who matched the photo on the PADD and walked towards his table. "Ensign Nicolae?" (reply Nicolae) "Hi, I'm Sasha Stolev," he said, extending his hand in greeting. "Mind if I sit down?" (reply Nicolae) Sasha took a seat opposite the young ensign. "So, I've been sent to engage you in your first official assignment aboard the Hades," he said with a slight smile. "I was aboard the station earlier with my children -- the captain's children -- and we were followed around by two suspicious looking men. For a while they seemed to content to just observe us, but eventually they started to approach us, which is when I requested an immediate beam out. I plan to return to the station to report the incident, and Captain Straton requested that I bring you along with me, just to be careful. I'm ready to go as soon as you are through," he added, indicating what was left of Nicolae's lunch.

Nice to meet you and you are?" Hawkeye asked.   “Ensign Tallac Dragovar, I’m from Tactical.” Dragovar returned the handshake   "Welcome aboard Ensign. I am sure you will enjoy your time aboard the Hades. Where was your previous duty station Ensign?" Hawkeye asked.   “I have just come from the Academy.” Dragovar replied. “New on the ship”   “I see.

"Hi, I'm Sasha Stolev, mind if I sit down?" “Yes that's me, please take a seat.“ Mil said shaking his hand. Mil had stood slightly to reach across the table. “How can I help sir?“ "So, I've been sent to engage you in your first official assignment aboard the Hades, I was aboard the station earlier with my children -- the captain's children -- and we were followed around by two suspicious looking men.

I plan to return to the station to report the incident, and Captain Straton requested that I bring you along with me, just to be careful. I'm ready to go as soon as you are through," Sasha replied. Mil had once again tuned out watching the room. He noticed that Sasha had stopped talking, unaware of how long he had stopped talking Mil pushed his dinner away. “Erm, well to be honest I've finished now Sasha.....I'm happy to go when you are. Now a good time?" (Reply Sasha) “That good then, we shall leave!“ Mil stood up and allowed Sasha to lead the way to the gangplank and onto the station. (Reply Sasha) (Posted by Mat Hodson) (USS Hades- Bridge - aFO- Lt. Commander Bohb- 1401) Bohb had been sitting for about thirty seconds when the call from Dr. Dolphine came in. Of course, he'd been trying to sit for a better portion of the day, but found himself unable to do so. Thirty seconds had become his limit before he stood up and began pacing the bridge. He hated having nothing to do. Magillans were creatures of action, and waiting was not a skill that Bohb had perfected. However, it had fallen to him to monitor the progress and the activities of the repair crews. =^=Dolphine to Angeni, Cdr. Bohb, are you two available for a meeting in the Hades sickbay in about half an hour?=^= Bohb tapped his comm badge. "I'll be there." He looked around at the curious glances from the other bridge crew and shrugged his shoulders. (USS Hades- Holodeck 4 -Dr. Chase O'Neil- 1420) Chase jumped around the strip, his foil extended its' full lenght. He fentined back, then lunged forward, the tip of his foil landing on the lame of his opponent. "Ha!" Chase removed his mask and gracefully saluted his opponent. His holographic opponent did the same. The young Cherokee Doctors' face was hidden behind the mask, and he winked at her as he called for the computer to end the program. It was their running joke; they each had a Fencing partner modeled after the other. In reality, it was the only way for them to Fence each other without one or both of them ending up with a broken bone or new bruise. He was tired of the scathing looks he'd received from Harry after he whipped her across the thigh or back with an errant, wildly flung parry. There was no telling what her paramoure thought the two were doing in their white uniforms and thin metal swords. He quickly darted to his quarters, spending time to change from his outfit, jump into a sonic, then jump out into his uniform. He promised to be at the meeting, and he wasn't about to dissapoint. (USS Hades-Sickbay-CMO Angeni O. Windsong-Trommashere- 1421) Angeni looked over some of her paperwork, shaking her head. She felt a headache coming on, and she pulled out her hypo from her drawer. She pushed the button, her headache abating away almost instantly. A quick scan with her tricorder showed her blood pressure to be higher than normal. It didn't phase her, but at the same time she worried about it. She penciled in a quick appointment with Chase over the next few days so that she could be evaluated further. Her comm badge beeped and she spun around, hitting the button. "Go ahead." =/\="Dolphine to Angeni, Cdr. Bohb, are you two available for a meeting in the Hades sickbay in about half an hour?"=/\= "Sure, why not. See you there."

He noted that there were several crewmen being treated for minor injuries. As he continued to scan he noted that the ACMO was in his office. He walked over to the office and stood in the doorway. There was no sign of Dr. .... Angeni. "Doctor, you wanted to see me?" (reply Hawkeye, Angeni) (posted by Al Muir) (USS Hades- Sickbay- Dr. Chase O'Neil- 1434) Chase strode into the meeting room, his tongue salavating as he saw the spread of food. He went over, slathering a dolop of honey on a corn biscuit, his eyes closed in reflection. "Darlin' you outdid yourself again." He looked at the other presence in the room, and he wiped his hands off on a naplin, pulling out a mini hand sanitizer. He ran it over his fingers, getting the stickiness of the honey off before extending his hand to Lt. Commander Bohb. "Hello, sir. I'm Dr. Chase O'Neil, but you may call me Chase. You must be Lt. Commander Bohb. It's a pleasure to meet you. I'm hoping our hostess has been more than gracious in showing you about our humble abode." He finished with a smile, casting a quick nod off to Angeni. (Reply Bohb) "So, what did Hawkeye discover to make him call this meeting?" (Reply Angeni, Bohb, Hawkeye, any) (Posted by Kari) (USS Hades- Sickbay - CMO Angeni O. Windsong-Trommashere- 1435) Angeni finished up in the meeting room, putting out the last of the hot corn meal biscuits and Jasmine honey out on the table. She smiled at the glass Teapot, the once dried ball of herbs and flowers now blooming in the bottom of the pot as a beautiful testament to the flavors that were surging through the air. The lotus blossom sat lazily on the bottom of the pot, the tendrils of Jasmine and Lavander moving up the inside of the pot, the tops of their scented blooms emerging gently from the tan colored liquid. A pitcher of ice water stood at the ready, several lemon, lime, and orange wedges sitting on a saucer. She looked over the glasses, making sure each one was perfectly cleaned. Once she was sure the food and drinks were set, she sat down, making sure she had gotten a favorite food for each of her staff. It was one of her many ways of saying thank you; each staff meeting she filled her table with the favorite food of each person who were going to be there. She scoured Bohbs' profile, but none such item was listed. She hoped that he would make his way to the replicator to find himself something to his liking if the spread was not appetizing. She looked out the door and saw Lt. Commander Bohb standing around looking for Hawkeye. She walked up to him, straightening out her white lab coat as she approached. "Commander! It's a pleasure to see you again." She extended her hand. (Reply Bohb) "Please, join me in the meeting room. I'm sure Hawkeye will be here in a few minutes. I have plenty of food and drinks, so please, make yourself comfortable." (Reply Bohb) She ushered him into the room. She reached into her pocket and fished out her little red tin that held her honey drops. She plucked one from the tin and she extended it to Bohb. "Crystalized Rose and Jasmine honey drops. It's a Terran treat of my people..." (Reply Bohb) (Posted by Kari) (USS Hades- Bridge - ACMO Ensign Hawkeye Dolphine- 1437) Hawkeye walked into sickbay, and made the left turn into the meeting room in sickbay. He saw that Angeni, Chase and Cdr. Bohb had already been there and that Angeni had refreshments set up waiting. Hawkeye walked in and headed for where the group was standing. "My apologies for the delay, I was stuck getting out of the replimat on board the station. I want to thank all of you for coming. I am sorry to call this meeting on such short notice and without an inclination of what it was about, but from where I was I thought it best to meet you all here and then reveal whats going on. Given whats occuring on board the station I thought this would be the best course of action." Hawkeye walked over and poured himself a cup of tea and took a biscut from the tray, applying a drop of honey. "While I was on board the station I ran into an old friend of mine, currently serving on board as an ACMO. I spent some time talking with him to determine if he has been affected by whats going on. From what I can tell he doesnt seem to be. He has asked me to meet him back on board the station around 1730 hours, he claims he wants to show me some case he needs a surgical consult on and wants me to review the case history he has on file. Seeing as how we need access to the station medical files I thought this would be the best way to gain access to the computers. I've known Jason a long time and I know I can trust him to give me computer access for a few mins to make some comparative studies on the current patient he is seeing. My concern would be occupying the CMO, who seems to be acting out of the norm according to my contact on board the station. I was hoping that Angeni and Cdr. Bohb could find a reason to keep the CMO occupied for about an hour and a half, while Chase and I beamed aboard the station and did what we needed to do. I can convice Jason that I need additional resources from the Hades and an additional surgeon. I've seen his case notes and I could use an additional thorasic surgeon for this." Hawkeye sat back in his chair and awaited the response of the first officer and the cheif medical officer. (Reply Angeni, Chase, Bohb) (Posted by Ben) (USS Hades- Sickbay - Dr. Chase O'Neil- 1440) Chase had just taken a bite of biscuit when Hawkeye started going in on what was going on. His mouth fell open slightly, and it took him a moment to collect himself. He looked back and forth between his three colleauges and none of them looked confused. He whipped out his date padd and he flipped through it, trying to figure out what he missed. He missed the end of the speech and he looked at Hawkeye, Angeni, and Cmdr. Bohb, his eyes wide. "Uhm, I hate to sound like a moron, but what did I miss?" (Reply Angeni) Chase nodded, finally catching up on what was going on. He looked at Hawkeye, sipping his tea slowly. "As far as I'm concerned, that sounds like a plan. I love you, Ang, but if he can sneak in with a cover, then he should go for it. We can always use your tactics as a second strike, just in case the initial play from Hawkeye doesn't work. Lt. Cmdr Bohb? What do you think, sir?" (Reply Bohb) Chase nodded then turned to Hawkeye. "I'm sure I can find an engineer or a scientist who would be willing to outfit a padd to make it transfer data without it being too obvious. Any of you know where I can find someone who's smart enough for that?" (Reply Hawk, Ang, and Bohb) (Posted by Kari) (USS Hades- Sickbay - aFO- Lt Commander Bohb- 1441) "Commander! It's a pleasure to see you again." The doctor extended her hand. Bohb took the hand and held it up to his nose, to sniff it. It was an old reaction he hadn't been able to supress. "Doctor, the pleasure is mine," he replied. "I hope youand your equipment survived my last experience in sickbay." His exam was,of course, uneventful. But Bohb was making an attempt at levity, and it didn't always play off well. "Please, join me in the meeting room. I'm sure Hawkeye will be here in a few minutes. I have plenty of food and drinks, so please, make yourself comfortable." He followed Angeni to the meeting room, and looked around at the accommodations. There was little there that would "make him comfortable," but he also knew that was not the exact meaning of the offer. He moved over to the refreshments and scrutinized them. Angeni offered him something from a tin she had drawn from her pocket. "Crystalized Rose and Jasmine honey drops," she explained. "It's a Terran treat of my people..." Bohb sniffed at the opaque, red crystal. He could smell the sugary sweetness. Gingerly he took it from the doctor and stuck out his tongue. With a quick lick of the sweet he savored the flavor. He cocked his head to the side, in contemplation, then popped it into his mouth. He was filled with the warmth of the sugar rush, and smiled. "Interesting," he said. As he gave each drink a similar scrutiny another doctor came in. Bohb did not recognize the man, as he believed that over the past five days he'd made an effort to meat every crew member. It was odd that he hadn't seen this doctor before. He wondered if he was from the starbase. But when he spoke he spoke with a familiarity that made the Magillan feel awkward. He elped himself to some of the food and drink and then gushed about refreshments, calling Angeni "Darlin'". ~Perhaps they were mates.~ "Hello, sir. I'm Dr. Chase O'Neil, but you may call me Chase. You must be Lt. Commander Bohb. It's a pleasure to meet you. I'm hoping our hostess has been more than gracious in showing you about our humble abode." Bohb looked at the doctor with great curiosity. "Hostess? I was under the impression that this was not a social event. I'm sorry, did I miss something. Doctor ... Chase." There was more to say but 'Chase' quickly moved on before Bobh could say anything else. "So, what did Hawkeye discover to make him call this meeting?" As if on cue Dolphine stepped into the room. "My apologies for the delay, I was stuck getting out of the replimat on board the station. I want to thank all of you for coming. I am sorry to call this meeting on such short notice and without an inclination of what it was about, but from where I was I thought it best to meet you all here and then reveal whats going on. Given whats occuring on board the station I thought this would be the best course of action." Bohb watched as the doctor paused and then went to pour himself a drink and get a cookie. Of all people, Bohb could appreciate a little dramatic pause, but when someone makes a statement about "beating a course of action" and then stops, the FO wanted to tell him to get on with it. Finally he continued, explaining how he had run into an old friend. Bohb thought that an odd statement, because if he had run into his friend did he injure the man, as obviously Dolphine was fine. But his statement that his friend seemed unaffected laid that to rest. Then Bohb realized that he wasn't talking about being run over. ~What would the man have been affected by?~ Dolphine went on to state that they stations ACMO wanted to meet with him at 1730 hours to consult with him on a patient. It wasn't that unusual, other than the fact that Bohb knew that there were several other doctors on the station that he could consult with. "Seeing as how we need access to the station medical files," Dolphine stated, "I thought this would be the best way to gain access to the computers. I've known Jason a long time and I know I can trust him to give me computer access for a few mins to make some comparative studies on the current patient he is seeing. My concern would be occupying the CMO, who seems to be acting out of the norm according to my contact on board the station. I was hoping that Angeni and Commander Bohb could find a reason to keep the CMO occupied for about an hour and a half, while Chase and I beamed aboard the station and did what we needed to do. I can convice Jason that I need additional resources from the Hades and an additional surgeon. I've seen his case notes and I could use an additional thorasic surgeon for this." Bohb suddenly realized what the third doctor in the room was for. He was feeling a fit a bit uncomfortable with the situation. They were already getting someone involved in a rather dubious situation, without giving himself or the CO an opportunity to review the plan. This Doctor Chase already knew to much. On Magilla Prime it would not be unheard of to ... dispense with the extra man ... as a security procedure. Bohb had heard a joke in security several times where someone would say, "I could tell you, but then I'd have to killyou." However, to Bohb, that was a total reality. When he was done Dolphine sat down expectantly. Before Bohb could comment 'Chase' spoke up, giving crdebility to the FO's concerns. "Uhm, I hate to sound like a moron, but what did I miss?" Bohb looked at the other two doctors with a warning glare, and then said, "I don't think that it would be prudent to give you any more details at this time doctor. I believe that what ever is said here, first of all, is kept in the strictest of confidence. Then, if this plan is approved we can bring you up to date with any further, relevant, information." Chase nodded and looked at the other doctors. "As far as I'm concerned, that sounds like a plan. I love you, Ang, but if he can sneak in with a cover, then he should go for it. We can always use your tactics as a second strike, just in case the initial play from Hawkeye doesn't work. Lt. Cmdr Bohb? What do you think, sir?" "Well," Bohb said standing and beginning to pace, "I think we need to decide on whether such a clandestine move is necessary. First of all, if you were invited to consult with this doctor, Doctor Dolphine, I do not believe we would need subterfuge to gain access to their medical database. I think we should try and get what we can without drawing any suspicion from anybody. Once you are into the database, you can have your tricorder set to download the whole database without anyone knowing." "I'm sure I can find an engineer or a scientist who would be willing to outfit a padd to make it transfer data without it being too obvious. Any of you know where I can find someone who's smart enough for that?" "We don't want to involve to many more people than we have to," he shot a warning glare at the three doctors. "I'm fairly certain that Dr. Bracken can easily take care of that." Bohb stopped pacing for a moment and looked squarely at Dolphine, "How well do you know this man, doctor? How do you 'know' that you can trust him? I think it a little too convenient that he should come to you so readily about such a routine thing, rather than one of his own comrades. This, in itself, will breed a sense of concern among the medical staff on the station." Then Bohb began pacing, "The Captain Nelson has invited Captain Straton and her senior staff to a dinner. I believe that this will be "distraction" that you would be looking for. However, the CO has not yet agreed. I could talk to her about accepting the invitation." (reply Chase, Dolphine, Angeni) "Is there anything else?" Bohb asked. (reply Chase, Dolphine, Angeni) "I will take your recommendations to the captain," Bohb said, preparing to leave. "I'll warn you all once again, this is not to be discussed, even among yourselves, outside of this office. Am I clear?" (reply Chase, Dolphine, Angeni) With that Bohb took his leave of the medical team. (reply Chase, Dolphine, Angeni) (posted by Al Muir) (DS15 - Security Office - Civ Aleksander Stolev and ATAC Nicolae - Day 5 - 1445) "Well, we're finally here," said Sasha as he and Nicolae arrived at the security office. "Thanks for your patience while I got the kids settled." Just before leaving the ship, he had gotten a call that Evan had fallen off a chair and was bleeding, but as soon as he got to sickbay he learned that it was simply a bloody nose and nothing to be overly concerned about. It had taken much longer to calm everyone down in the aftermath than to actually deal with the minor injury. Now, Sasha walked into the security office on the station and Mil followed behind, pretending to keep watch over the events, but ready to pounce if needed. They looked up as the door opened and an officer in security colors entered the room. "Mr. Stolev?" "Yes," replied Sasha as he stood and offered the man his hand. "I'm Lieutenant Frie, thanks for coming by. Welcome back Mr. Nicolae," said the officer with a smile as he shook Sasha's hand and motioned towards the Ensign. "Care to come back to my office? I'd like to chat about your incident a little bit more if you don't mind." "Sure," replied Sasha. As they passed the security desk, Frie paused and turned to the duty officer. "Would you have Kiley join us as soon as he's available? And ask him to bring along his special project." Mil stopped when he heard this. ::Brother, I’m glad you thought this was right.:: "Aye, sir," replied the officer. Frie then continued down the corridor, with Sasha following as he wondered who Kiley was. "Actually," Sasha added as they came to a door, "I really don't have a lot to tell. Just a couple of guys following me and my kids around the station." Frie smiled. "That's ok, I wanted to show you some holopics to see if you could identify the individuals in question." As they walked into the office, Frie took a seat behind the desk and motioned Sasha to a chair opposite. Mil took up his post on the inside of the door. He had clear view of the office as Frie tapped in a few commands into his console, and a series of five holopics popped up from the surface of the desk. "Do any of these look like the men you saw?" asked Frie. Sasha glanced at the pics. "No, none of these." He wondered why Frie hadn't ask for a description before bringing up images. "Maybe if I gave you a more detailed description, it would help in your search?" Frie nodded. "Good idea." As Sasha gave him as many details as he could remember, Frie tapped away at the keypad, and the pictures fluctuated. This time, all five pics had blond hair. "These all have blond hair," said Sasha evenly as he began to wonder about the competency of the security staff on the station. "I said they both had brown hair." "Oh, right," replied Frie. He tapped a few more commands in the console, and the holopics disappeared. "Oops," muttered Frie as he typed some more commands in. "Sorry," he said with an apologetic smile, "can you give me those descriptions again? The search program seems to have lost the parameters." Sasha gave an exasperated sigh and began patiently repeating his description of the two men as Frie slowly typed them in to the database search program. The door to the office opened and Mil recognized instantly the officer that had walked in. ::It is time:: he thought as Kiley carried an object that looked very much like a large raisin. "Ah, Dr. Kiley," said Frie, looking up at the newcomer. "This is Mr. Stolev. He used to be a security officer, and a first officer also if I'm not mistaken. Maybe he can help you with your project." Dr. Kiley smiled and sat down next to Sasha. "What is this about?" asked Sasha warily. "Well, I am investigating something and thought you might have experience that would be helpful," replied Kiley. He held the raisin-shaped object out to Sasha. "Have you ever seen anything like this before?" Mil moved behind Sasha just in case the Civilian realized what was about to happen. He watched as Sasha leant forward to get a closer look. Sasha heard a soft hiss and felt himself quickly losing consciousness. ::Imzadi...:: was the only thought he manage before falling into darkness. (reply Straton) Mil watched as Sasha fell to the desk. “Dr I do believe we have a medical emergency, so fortunate that you were here to assist my captains husband." He stood over the unconscious man. ::Hurry Brothers, the time is coming:: (reply any) Reacting to the situation at hand he tapped his comm badge. “Ensign Nicolae to the Hades we have an emergency. Sasha has fallen unconscious, the Stations Dr has been called and is examining him now.” (Reply whoever is on the Bridge) He waited for the response watching as his new brother prepared to enter his family. (reply Straton, Bridge) (posted by Aaron and Mat) (USS Hades, Ready Room, CO Captain Eva Straton, 14:59) Eva was sitting at her desk going over reports from engineering on the on going repairs. Evan's accident earlier in the day had put her on edge heightening her motherly instincts. She was keeping telepathic tabs on both of the twins even while she sat in front of her desk reading repair reports. Suddenly a desperate telepathic plea broke her concentration. ::Imzadi...:: Eva's hand slammed down on her desk and she jumped out of her seat. "Computer initiate program Straton 11-E," She snapped, "Authorization Straton Alpha 2534 gamma. Beam him directly to Sickbay." [Authorization confirmed. Program initiated.] the computer chirped. Eva knew that Sasha would be immediately beamed directly to Sickbay as she moved around her desk. She had several emergency programs in place that only she could access. She had put the programs in place shortly after she had taken command of the Hades and were designed to be used in an emergency situation to help protect the ship, her crew, and her family. Eva was almost at a dead run as the Ready Room doors parted. "Captain to the bridge. There's a situation that needs your immediate attention," Commander Bohb was saying as she exited the Ready room and moved across the Bridge toward the turbolift. "Bridge to sickbay. I need someone to go to DS15 immediately. There's a medical situation concerning Mr. Stolev." Bohb continued. tapping his badge again. "Sasha is being beamed directly to Sickbay," Eva said not even slowing down. "Inform Sickbay that I will be there immediately." She stepped into the turbo-lift and turned to look directly at Commander Bohb. "Lock down the ship. No one on or off until I say so, and have a security team meet me in sickbay." (Reply Bohb, any on Bridge) (USS Hades - Bridge - aFO- Lt. Commander Bohb-1500) Bohb was still thinking about his conversation with the doctors when he had arrived on the bridge. Everything seemed so normal here, it was a little hard to grasp the feel of the situation with the station. Deep space stations, especially those so far away from any form of governing body always had this quality of relaxed adherence to protocol. However, this station had taken it one step further. Once he had asked for and received the progress report on the repairs, he sat down with the PADD and began to look over the data. His study of the information was interrupted by a call from the station. =^=Ensign Nicolae to the Hades we have an emergency. Sasha has fallen unconscious, the Stations Dr has been called and is examining him now.=^= ~Sasha? The captains mate? What in the name of all that is green is Nicolae doing back on that station?~ "Bohb here, Ensign," he answered, "explain what happened. I'll be sending medical staff immediately." (reply Nicolae) Bohb tapped his comm badge, "Captain to the bridge. There's a situation that needs your immediate attention." He tapped his badge again, "Bridge to sickbay. I need someone to go to DS15 immediately. There's a medical situation concerning Mr. Stolev." (reply anyone in sickbay) (posted by Al Muir) (USS Hades – Turbolift – Ensign Tallac Dragovar – 15:00.25) Dragovar pressed the call button for the turbolift. His blood was pumping after he completed the Starfleet medical successfully, his next port of call was to report to Lt. Commander Bohb. The computer told him he was on the bridge, so he selected this for his destination. He hoped that this would be the last person he had to see before he could start at his duty post.   He heard the familier hum of another turbolift whizzing past in the opposite direction just before he arrived at the bridge. (Posted by Tim (USS Hades - Bridge - aFO- Lt. Commander Bohb-1501) Bohb was completely startled by the CO's sudden appearance. His final statement sort of died of on the last words as Straton spoke. "Sasha is being beamed directly to Sickbay. Inform Sickbay that I will be there immediately." As the captain stepped onto the turbo lift she ordered, "Lock down the ship. No one on or off until I say so, and have a security team meet me in sickbay." "Aye captain," Bohb replied, but the turbolift door was already closed. Bohb frowned and shrugged his shoulders just in time to hear a reply from the station. =^=Sir, he just complained of feeling light headed and collapsed onto the desk. The staff here tried to revive him but he just beamed out. Commander I'm on my way back to the ship.=^= "Belay that," Bohb said. "The ship is on lock down until further notice. It looks like you're going to be staying on the starbase for a while." =^=Understood sir.=^= As the channel closed Bohb tapped his comm badge, "Bohb to sickbay, cancel the order to send medical staff to the starbase. I'm sure that you've noticed that Stolev was already transported to sickbay. The captain is en route." (reply sickbay) Bohb returned to his seat and opened another comm channel. "Bohb to security, I need a team in sickbay, immediately." (reply security) Bohb sat back and sighed, "Well, it certainly hasn't been dull." (reply security, sickbay, any) (posted by Al Muir) (USS Hades, Sickbay, CO Captain Eva Straton, 15:03) Eva rushed into Sickbay before the doors had even fully parted. Her eyes immediately locked on the bio-bed Sasha was laying on being worked on by Dr. Trommashere and her staff. "Something's wrong with his mind," Eva said looking at Sasha. "There is another presence in his mind. Doctor?" (Reply Bohb, Trommashere, Medical, Any) (posted by Wes) (USS Hades – Bridge – aFO- Lt. Commander Bohb – 1503.5) =^=Lieutenant Commander, I’m a member of security newly assigned to the ship. Do you want me to go down to sickbay=^= Bohb frpwned. He had no idea who was talking to him. "Computer, identify the source of this communication," he oredered. [The communication is originating from Ensign Tallac Dragovar.] He should have been more careful about directing his comm request. However, he had not heard if Trinan had returned to the ship, but was sure he hadn't. With Katsurou with Trinan, and Nicolae stuck on the base...again, that left him with little option. "Yes Ensign, head straight to sickbay. I will meet you there and instruct you in protocal for answering an all call to security, like identifying yourself first. Bohb out." He could feel a slight headache growing behind his eyes. Rubbing the bridge between his eyes Bohb looked around the bridge. He looked at the officer at the Ops station. "I'm heading to sickbay. Lt. Tuttle, you have the conn." "Aye sir," the Bolian ops officer replied, standing from his station. As Bohb entered the turbo lift he called out, "Inform me immediately if anything, and I do mean anything, looks suspicious with our repairs." The door closed before Tuttle could reply. (reply Dragovar) (posted by Al Muir) (USS Hades – Bridge – Ensign Tallac Dragovar – 15:03.75)   The doors opened with the usual hiss and he stepped out onto the bridge. He saw the first officer and as he took the first step towards him he heard the call go out.   =/\= Bohb to security, I need a team in sickbay, immediately.=/\=   Keen for something to do he lept at the chance to start.   “Lieutenant Commander, I’m a member of security newly assigned to the ship. Do you want me to go down to sickbay ?”   (Reply Bohb, other) (Posted by Tim (DS15 – Security Office - ATAC- Ensign Mil Nicolae -1504) Mil watched as Frie and Kiley moved the body onto the floor. The Dr continued scanning once Sasha was down. =/\= Bohb here, Ensign, explain what happened. I'll be sending medical staff immediately =/\= All three stood in silence for what felt hours. Mil opened his mouth like a goldfish for a few seconds as he watched his new Brother beam out of the office. ::NOOOOOOOO:: “Sir, he just complained of feeling light headed and collapsed onto the desk. The staff here tried to revive him but he just beamed out. Commander I’m on my way back to the ship.” (Reply Bohb) NRPG: I’m guessing Mil will be told that the ship is on lock down RPG: “Understood sir.” Mil stood in the office he looked at Dr Kiley with concern in his eyes “I suggest we get that project out of here before anyone comes looking….now Doctor.” Frie remained in the office as the Dr and Mil left the room. As the doors shut Mil tapped his comm badge “Nicolae to Nelson, we have a problem.” (Reply Nelson) (Reply Bohb, Reply Nelson, Reply Any) (Posted by Mat ) (DS15 – Captain's Office - DS15 CO- Captain William Nelson -1504) =^=Nicolae to Nelson, we have a problem.=^= Nelson spun around in his chair. He had already sensed an empty place where someone was... missing. "Report to my office, immediately. And bring Dr. Kiley with you." Nelson frowned, then tapped his comm badge. "Commander Sy'val, I need to see you, now." (reply Nicolae) (posted by Al Muir) (DS15 – Security Dept - ATAC- Ensign Mil Nicolae-1507) =/\= Report to my office, immediately. And bring Dr. Kiley with you.=/\= Nelson replied. Mil was already heading towards the OPS when Nelson had told them to get to the office. “On our way Sir” Mil tapped his comm. Badge off. Both officers picked up the pace and entered the nearest turbolift. Dr Kiley had commanded it to head to OPS. (DS15 – OPS - ATAC- Ensign Mil Nicolae-1510) The doors sprung open and Mil stepped out followed by Kiley, they crossed the deck watching the concern on most of the officers faces they entered the office. (DS15 – CO office - ATAC- Ensign Mil Nicolae-1511) The doors shut behind the two officers, Mil didn’t take any notice of who else was in the office, he had a concern that needed to be voiced urgently. “William they just beamed him back to the ship and now the Hades is on lockdown. I cant get on to stop them scanning him.” (Reply Nelson, any in room) (Posted by Mat) (DS15 – Captain's Office - Station CO- Captain William Nelson -1512) When the door shut behind them Nicolae spoke, “William they just beamed him back to the ship and now the Hades is on lockdown. I can't get on to stop them scanning him.” Nelson moved quickly across the room a whipped the back of his hand against Nicolae's face. His eyes narrowed and his voice lowered to a dangerous level. "Idiot," he hissed, "you threaten everything by contacting me on an open channel, and then come in here calling me by my name. An Ensign in Starfleet would never presume as much." He turned his back on the officer for a moment and then turned back around. "Now, what went wrong?" (reply Nicolae) (posted by Al Muir) (DS15 - Captain's Office - ATAC- Ensign Mil Nicolae -1515) The hard slap still stinging on his cheek Mil stood there. What was it about this body that seemed to enjoy being punished? He looked around the room seeing no one other then the Doctor, Mil was a little confused as to the reaction. "Well if you had put me inside a Commander instead of an Ensign maybe things would be a little different." He felt slightly cheeky with his answer but before Nelson could retaliate he took a step back and continued. "Kiely put the pod on the table in front of Sasha, he leaned in and got infected, then blacked out; as any Starfleet Ensign would do..." Being slightly comical to Nelsons previous statement "...I hailed that thing of a first officer and told them we had a problem. But before I could relay finish someone beamed him off the station. I said I would be getting back but the ships on lock down. I'm stuck" Nicolae took a breath and looked around. "We're going to be found out and we need to act now. I have an idea, there is an officer on the ship that this Ensign was at the academy with, bit of a moment in a turbo lift but I think I can swing it and use him to find out what is going on, what they know. You know, play the all concerned bodyguard. What do you suggest?" Mil stood and waited for the answer.
