21:15Dr_Fenway:AMO >[ CO ] Indded she is, Captain. One of the critical care officers from the Quintox took a turn for the worse, and she is Dr. Redmayne's patient.
21:16**Ens_S_Hidewara[spec] left the room (quit: Quit: See ya!).
21:17Dr_Fenway:AMO >[ ALL ] As far as the others that we rescued from Keruba, there should be no reason the majority of them could not either return to duty or be beamed back to their planet withing the next day or two.
21:18Dr_Fenway:AMO >[ CNS ] Your job, Counselor, has just increased however. As with the other Quintox officers that have been rescued, this new batch will be in need of your services.
21:19Dr_Fenway:AMO >[ ALL ] Apparently prolonged expsure to whatever language the Scruggs are speaking, is doing more of a psychlogical problem with our crews.

21:26Moonshadows:TAC>[ALL] The Scruggs attacked Federation personell, I feel they are fair game
21:26CaptMcCloud:CO >[ TAC ] I believe our actions against the Scruggs are limited to when Starfleet personnel are involved, Lt.

21:27Cmdr_Jorel:xo >[ tac ] we are not in the business of war. We have our people back.
21:29Moonshadows:TAC>::WHips tail once, subsides::
21:29Bot:Lt Nofar >[ XO ] There was a time when we were all the same people, Commander. Whether Starfleet of Keruban.
21:30CaptMcCloud:CO >[ SCI ] Mr. Banning. Is there anything new as far as the Scruggs are concerned?
21:32Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CO ] Well, they have had shuttles transferring their own back and forth from the station. Though, the shuttles leaving the station take a bit longer than one might anticipate for a "changing of the guard." Also...
21:33Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CO ] Maybe Lt. Wren can back me up on this. I believe they have been sending inquiries out, to see where their mother ship is.
21:34CaptMcCloud:CO >[ SCI/OPS ] : looks between the officers:: Have they been gettting any response?
21:36Lt_Wren:Ops >[ CO ] They have been making some sort of communications out. I have not yet received any incoming signals
21:36Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CO ] Not to my knowledge, Sir. And... :: slides a padd over to Fenway:: Here are the latest bio-signs of the Scrubbs on the planet, Doctor.
21:37CaptMcCloud:CO >[ OPS ] Keep an eye on that. Any luck with their language yet?

21:40CaptMcCloud:CO >[ AMO ] Something to share, Doctor?
21:41Dr_Fenway:AMO > :: looks up:: [ CO ] As a matter of fact, yes, Captain. Unless I am missing my guess here, Sir. The Scruggs are dying.
21:43Cmdr_Jorel:xo >[ amo ] What do you mean Doc?
21:43Moonshadows:TAC>::Ears go forward::
21:45Dr_Fenway:AMO >[ XO ] It would seem something in the Keruban atmosphere is blocking the Scruggs from absorbing any moisture. They don't need a lot, but it looks as if they aren't getting any.
21:45LtCmdr_Hart:CENG > :: snorts:: That's a good thing, right?
21:45Moonshadows:TAC>{CENG} I think so
21:46Bot:Lt Nofar> They did have regular shift changes of their guards, where they wuld actually leave the planet.
21:47CaptMcCloud:CO >[ ALL ] :: pondering:: So, spending time either back on their mother ship or the defense platform would rejuvenate them?
21:48Lt_Banning:SCI >[ ALL ] How can the Kerubans use this to their advantage?
21:49LtCmdr_Hart:CENG >[ SCI ] Let them damn bugs die.
21:49Cmdr_Jorel:xo >[ amo ] do they really rejuvenate enough?
21:50Bot:Nofar >[ CENG ] The Kerubans will never allow that to happen.
21:51LtCmdr_Hart:CENG >[ Nofar ] :: glances over to him:: Seriously? These things put their people in slavery, and they won't just let their planet kill them?'
21:51Bot:Nofar >[ CENG ] you have to understand these people, Commander. They are very gentle. Do no harm.
21:53Cmdr_Jorel:xo >[ Nofar ] but they want us to do the harming?
21:53CaptMcCloud:CO >[ ALL ] So, what can we do to aid this. :: looks to Nofar:: There still are over seven thousand Scruggs dwn there. Is there a way to ... hold them in a special facility?
21:54Bot:Nofar >[ XO ] They want the Scruggs to leave, but they do nt want us to harm them either.
21:55Cmdr_Jorel:xo >[ nofar ] that is not possible. We still have no way to even communicate with the Scruggs.
21:55Moonshadows:TAC>[NOIP] ::Mutters about putting the scruggs into a decaying orbit around Keruba with the cargo transporters and treatingthe KErubans to a lovely metoer shower::
21:55Bot:Nofar >[ XO ] ::nods:: That is a problem, Sir.
21:56LtCmdr_Hart:CENG > ;: hears Moon's mutter, and nods his agreement::
21:57CaptMcCloud:CO >[ ALL ] I want some suggestions, folks. A way to help the Kerubans, without helping them, if you know what I mean. Even if it means saving the lives of the Scruggs.
21:58Lt_Banning:SCI > :: nods:: Aye, Sir.
21:59LtCmdr_Hart:CENG >[ NOIP ] A sound-proof container. That's what they need.
21:59Dr_Fenway:AMO >[ CENG ] A rather LARGE container.
22:00CaptMcCloud:CO >[ SCI ] Mr. Banning. Put the sensor net to work. See if you can locate the mother ship anywhere nearby.

Real quick: we are setting the Scrugg mother-ship up to tow it back to Keruba. The away team, led by Commander Jorel, is still aboard the mother-ship, trying to gather any and all good information they can.
Any questions?

21:13Ens_S_Hidewara:CNS > ::studies the Captain as he makes his rounds:: [CO] So these Scrugg life forms... why haven't we met them before?
21:15CaptMcCloud:CO >[ CNS ] Proximity to Federation space would be my guess, Counselor. Remember we are in a part of the Beta Quadrant not accessible by standard warp drive. At least not in a normal life time.
21:16Bot:SCI2 >[ CNS ] If we were to lose slip-stream capabilities, it would take close to twenty five years to get home at maximum warp.
21:16CaptMcCloud:CO > :: Nods in agreement with Lavarn's assessment.::
21:18Cmdr_Jorel:@ xo >[ sci ] I know, I'm impatient. Still not used to not being in your spot.
21:18Lt_Banning:@ SCI >[ XO ] My spot, Sir?
21:19Ens_S_Hidewara:CNS > [CO & SCI2] To be sure... it seems as if "ex astris scientia" has indeed taken a turn... but for better or worse?
21:20Cmdr_Jorel:@ xo >[ sci ] I was Chief Science officer before taking on the position of XO here.
21:21CaptMcCloud:CO >[ CNS ] Right now, in this area of space, and the adjoining one, I'd say worse.
21:21Ens_S_Hidewara:CNS > ::recalling everything she's been through:: [CO] You may just be right.
21:21Lt_Banning:@ SCI >[ XO ] I didn't know that, Sir. :: smiles:: So you do know what I'm going through here.
21:22CaptMcCloud:CO >[ CNS ] However, with my next plan, I am hoping to change the Scrugg's outlook on things.
21:22Cmdr_Jorel:@ xo >[ sci ] :: chuckles :: Yes I do. It's also why I tend to hover over you. Not because I don't trust you or your abilities, but because I'm still itching to be the one doing it.
21:23Ens_S_Hidewara:CNS > [CO] And how so?
21:25CaptMcCloud:CO >[ CNS ] Well, since this particular ship ... :: points to the image of the mother-ship:: .. has gone missing, the Scruggs on Keruba are dying. My plan is to two that thing back to Keruba and beam the Scruggs back aboard it. Essentially get them all off Keruba.
21:25Lt_Banning:@ SCI > :: goes back to looking at the console, trying to gain access of the rest of their computer::
21:26Ens_S_Hidewara:CNS > [CO] And put them where? There must be millions of them... and the Eagle is no giant...
21:26Lt_Banning:@ SCI >[ XO ] I have a better understanding now, Sir. You can hover all you want, and even give pointers if you see a better way.
21:28CaptMcCloud:CO >[ CNS ] Well, there are ten-thousand of them critters on Keruba, and I certainly do NOT intend on bringing them aboard the Eagle.
21:28LtCmdr_Hart:@ CENG > :: gets to the root of the power problem. The system blow out by the Brethren weapons fire::
21:29Ens_S_Hidewara:CNS > [CO
21:29Cmdr_Jorel:@ xo >[ sci ] You do a fine job.
21:29Ens_S_Hidewara:*CNS > [CO] So what exactly do you intend to do with them?
21:30CaptMcCloud:CO >[ CNS ] ::smiles, and points to the view screen::
21:30Ens_S_Hidewara:CNS > ::looks at the view screen, curious::
21:30LtCmdr_Hart:@ CENG > :: instructs his team which systems to repair::
21:32LtCmdr_Hart:@ CENG >+[ XO ]+ Commander Hart to Commander Jorel.
21:32Ens_S_Hidewara:CNS > [CO] But they're ::points at the carcasses ((or are they corpses?)):: dead.
21:32Cmdr_Jorel:@ xo >+[ ceng ]+ Jorel here, go ahead cmdr
21:33Lt_Banning:@ SCI > :: smiles at the compliment from his XO ::
21:34LtCmdr_Hart:@ CENG >+[ XO ]+ We've tracked down the damage done by the Brethren ship. I'm glad the captain doesn't want me to restore engines, because that is never going to happen. We can make certain the life-support systems keep up though.
21:35CaptMcCloud:CO >[ CNS ] THEY are, yes. But the ones on Keruba aren't.... yet. We beam them back aboard their mother-ship, and they'll have a chance at survival.
21:36Cmdr_Jorel:@ xo >+[ ceng ]+ Life support is good.
21:36Bot:Armand > :: enters the bridge, after his daily classes are done::
21:37LtCmdr_Hart:@ CENG >+[ XO ]+ Well that's what the old man wants. We'll also have it ready to two in about two hours.
21:37Ens_S_Hidewara:CNS > [CO] If our engineering team can get it to work.
21:39CaptMcCloud:CO >[ CNS ] ::raises brows:: No faith in our engineers, Counselor?
21:40Lt_Banning:@ SCI > :: sighs in frustration as he is once again "Denied" access::
21:41LtCmdr_Hart:(Yeah, ENSIGN. What's that all about?)
21:41Cmdr_Jorel:@ xo >+[ ceng ]+ I'll update the Captain, thank you Cmdr
21:41Ens_S_Hidewara:((LOL A counselor's gotta ask the tough ones.))
21:41LtCmdr_Hart:@ CENG >+[ XO ]+ Not a problem. Hart out. :: taps off his badge::
21:42LtCmdr_Hart:(I'll remember that when you tell me something's not working in your quarters.)
21:43Ens_S_Hidewara:CNS > [CO] I never said that... I believe as much as you do that Starfleet has enough trained personnel to do the job. I also believe that if we tow it back while the operation is going on, we might have a faster look at the Scrugg... and the task ahead. Perhaps even the Scrugg could assist with the repairs...
21:43Lt_Wren:@ Ops >[ Sci ] I think I might be able to help Banning. I'd like to try out my new program
21:43Lt_Banning:@ SCI >[ XO ] :: turns to the XO :: If we could get some kind of rudimentary understanding of their language, but... ::tosses his hands toward the console:: This all seems like hodge-podge gibberish.
21:44Lt_Banning:@ SCI >[ OPS ] I'm game for anything, Hailey.
21:45Ens_S_Hidewara:((Hodge-Podge? LOL))
21:45Bot:Armand > :: disappointed Lt. Wren is not on the bridge. Really enjoys working with her, and want to work some more on the Scrugg language::
21:46Lt_Wren:@ Ops> :: moves over to Banning and imputs a few things into his console::
21:46Lt_Banning:(Yes, that is my official sciencey explanation. :) )
21:46Ens_S_Hidewara:(( Aw, Armand's back! :) ))
21:47Bot:(Armand> :: waves to the counselor:: Miss me? ))
21:47Ens_S_Hidewara:((CNS > [Armand] Of course!))
21:48Lt_Banning:@ SCI > :: watches Hailey's program at work::
21:49Bot:@ AXN ::It takes almost five minutes of Hailey's program running, but suddenly symbols start to make sense.::
21:49Lt_Wren:@ Ops >[ Sci ] looks like I have better luck with the written language.
21:50Lt_Banning:@ SCI >[ OPS ] Will you look at that? :: looks at Hailey:: You're a genius.
21:51Lt_Banning:@ SCI > Let me try something. :: sets up his tricorder, attaching it to the console. Keys in a couple commands::
21:53**Ens_S_Hidewara left the room (quit: Quit: Leaving).
21:53**Ens_S_Hidewara entered the room.
21:53Bot:@ AXN ::The star charts for all "Scrugg" space appear. The over-all "map" has the sector divided up into smaller sectors. Planets appear marked in red, showing occupied planets with rich resources::
21:54Lt_Banning:@ SCI >[ XO ] Commander, you might want to see this. :: smiles:: [ OPS ] Thanks, Hailey!
21:54Lt_Wren:@ Ops >[ Sci ] glad to be of service
21:55Bot:@ AXN :: The "Map" also show Enclave space, with some comments about not crossing into their space.... yet::
21:55Cmdr_Jorel:@ xo >[ sci ] let's see :: moves over to the console
21:56Bot:@ AXN :: It also shows Grimley Station, with another "no fly" notation.::
21:57Bot:(*notation)
21:57Cmdr_Jorel:@ xo >[ sci ] we should get this map to the Eagle
21:57Ens_S_Hidewara:CNS> ::can't see what the AT is looking at:: [CO] What could they possibly be looking at? It looks like a map of some sort but the image is blurry.
21:57Lt_Banning:@ SCI >[ XO ] Already on its way, Sir.
21:58Cmdr_Jorel:@ xo >[ sci ] good
21:58CaptMcCloud:(We don't have a visual of the bridge, Counselor, just the outside view of the ship)
21:59Ens_S_Hidewara:((Oh. Oops. Time to pull out the erasers, folks...))
21:59Ens_S_Hidewara:((Good thing we use pencil...))
21:59Bot:SCI2 >[ CO ] Captain. I am receiving some new data from Lt. Banning. It looks like an overview of Scrugg space.
21:59CaptMcCloud:CO >[ SCI2 ] Put it on screen, Ensign.
21:59Cmdr_Jorel:@ xo >+[ Eagle ]+ Jorel to Eagle
22:00Bot:AXN :: The same "map" the AT is viewing now appears on the main viewer.::
22:00Ens_S_Hidewara:CNS > ::sees the screen change to reveal the map::
22:00CaptMcCloud:CO >+[ XO ]+ proceed, Commander.
22:03Cmdr_Jorel:@ xo >+[ eagle ]+ Lt Banning, with the help of Lt Wren, has been able to access the Scrugg's computer. We've sent over, what appears to be a map of Scrugg space. Of note is the Enclave Territory and the Grimely Station which include notations for no fly zones. Also, Cmdr Hart says that he should be ready in about 2 and half hours.
22:03Lt_Banning:@ SCI > :: tries zooming in on the "map" to see what other detail he can pick out::
22:04CaptMcCloud:CO >+[ XO ]+ We're looking at it now, Commander. Well done.
