21:03	LtCmdr_Avala_Muren:	yes sir ty
21:03	CaptMcCloud:	Have you all read the brief, and do we have any questions?

21:03	JazzyFarrell:	Sorry about that
21:03	JazzyFarrell:	Yes and no
21:03	Moonshadows:	I and my Ink are happy sir, and you?
21:03	Lt_Banning:	Yes and no, Sir.
21:04	Moonshadows:	Read, undrstood, no questions
21:04	Dr_Fenway:	Read the brief, no questions, Captain.
21:04	LtCmdr_Avala_Muren:	yes read no ?

21:05	CmdrJorel:	read, no questions
21:05	Lt_Wren:	No questions Captain
21:05	EnsVarelNerik:	read, no sir
21:06	CaptMcCloud:	Okay. Ensign Farrell you should be standing by at Cargo Bay 3 where our new "Guests" currently are being treated and interviewed by Commander Jorel. And, with no questions, let's... =/\= BEGIN SIM =/\=
21:06	CaptMcCloud:	CO > :: On the bridge, awaiting a report from below::
21:07	LtCmdr_Avala_Muren:	CSci> ::does an internal scan of the beings in Cargo Bay 3, checking to be sure there are no signs of anything hinky::
21:07	Moonshadows:	TAC>::She is scanning, watching to see if the bad guy comes b ack with friends::
21:07	Bot:	Tarsus 1> :: Looks to Jorel:: Are you in charge?
21:08	CmdrJorel:	xo> :: walks up to the Alien who appears to be in charge :: Hello, my name is Cmdr Kairyn Jorel, XO of the USS Eagle.
21:08	LtCmdr_Avala_Muren:	CSci> ::specifically checking to be sure they are what/who they appear to be and not the nebula-stealing powerful beings::
21:08	Dr_Fenway:	AMO > :: working on the injured::
21:09	Lt_Wren:	Ops> :: on the bridge at her station ::
21:09	EnsVarelNerik:	Helm> :: at the HElm station on the brdige::
21:10	Bot:	Tarsus 1> ::gives a curt nod:: I am Kernel Emmett of the Tarsus Rangers. I want to thank you for rescuing us, but I am really at a loss as to how we even got here.
21:10	JazzyFarrell:	On Patrol with her men.
21:11	Moonshadows:	TAC>[CO] I am scanning, sir... So far, no sign of the hostile.... Or an yone else
21:11	Bot:	=/\=ACTION: Muren's sensor readings show they are all basically humanoid. =/\=
21:11	LtCmdr_Avala_Muren:	CSci> ::messages Banning:: Sci> Any signs of additional activity by that Q-like being we suspect has been meddling?
21:11	CaptMcCloud:	CO >[ TAC ] If they're smart, they'll stay away.
21:11	LtCmdr_Avala_Muren:	CSci> ::is pleased not to detect hinky-ness::
21:12	Lt_Banning:	SCI > :: Back in the sensor pod, replies to the CSCI:: "Negative, Commander. All grids are clear."
21:12	Moonshadows:	TAC>[CO] I have learned not to rely on other's being "smart", sir...
21:13	CmdrJorel:	xo >[ T1 ] You are welcome. We can explain that later. How are your people doing?
21:14	LtCmdr_Avala_Muren:	CSci> ::to Banning:: Thank you, let me know if you detect the slightest hint that it might be around please.
21:14	Bot:	Knl Emmett> :: Looks over at his people:: [ XO ] Some have serious injuries, which your medics seem to have under control. Again, I am most impressed.
21:14	LtCmdr_Avala_Muren:	CSCi> ::thinks to herself that Muren is behaving::
21:15	Bot:	=/\=ACTION: Wren receives a hail from the U.S.S. Independence. =/\=
21:15	Lt_Wren:	Ops >[ CO ] :: raises an eyebrow at the timing :: Captain, incoming hail from the Independence.
21:16	CmdrJorel:	xo >[ t1 ] are you, yourself hurt?
21:16	Lt_Banning:	SCI > :: returns to CSCI:: "Aye, Sir."
21:16	LtCmdr_Avala_Muren:	CSci> ::blinks and looks at her sensors to see where that hail is coming from::
21:16	CaptMcCloud:	CO > :: Turns to OPS, obvious question on his face:: Put it on screen.
21:17	Bot:	Knl Emmett >[ XO ] No, Ma'am, I am not. Thank you for asking though.
21:18	LtCmdr_Avala_Muren:	CSci> ::to Banning:: We just got hailed by the Indy....how did she manage to sneak up on us?
21:18	Lt_Wren:	Ops >[ CO ] Aye sir :: puts the hail on screen, wondering how the Indy is connected to this. ::
21:18	CaptMcCloud:	CO > :: Turns toward the screen +[ INDY ]+ Captain McMahon? I am Rayne McCloud.
21:19	Moonshadows:	TAC>::MInds her board, after one quick look at the screen::
21:19	Lt_Banning:	SCI > :: Looks at the sensor grids. Sends to CSCI :: "Nothing still on the grids. I'll try to get a trace on the signal."
21:20	CmdrJorel:	xo >[ t1 ] good. Then I would like to ask you about what happened.
21:21	LtCmdr_Avala_Muren:	CSci> Sci> Thank you. ::tries to detect where the signal from the Indy is coming from::
21:21	Bot:	@ McMahon >+[ Eagle ]+ You've followed us a great distance, Captain. I hope you can understand my need for staying hidden, at least at the moment.
21:22	CaptMcCloud:	CO >+[ McMahon ]+ Starfleet has sent us out here to find you, Captain. I want to believe the things they are saying are not true, that this is all some misunderstanding.
21:22	LtCmdr_Avala_Muren:	CSci> ::Muren mutters:: I wonder what he's hiding, besides his ship...
21:22	Moonshadows:	TAC>::Independence is not in range of the sensor suite::
21:23	Bot:	Knl Emmett >[ XO ] We'be been tracking the H'tawla Gang for light years. They're wanted in most of the sectors, this end of the Quadrant. They got the jump on us and I'm gueesing you saw that battle.
21:25	Bot:	@ McMahon >+[ Eagle ]+ ::raises a brow, rubbing his chin briefly:: If I were to say that it was in fact a misunderstanding, what would you say then?
21:26	CaptMcCloud:	CO >+[ McMahon ]+ I would say let's meet up. Find out what is really going on. See if the Eagle and her crew can help in any way.
21:27	CmdrJorel:	xo >[ ke ] yes, we saw. They looked like they could easily out gun you.
21:28	Lt_Banning:	SCI > :: still trying to get a trace on the signal. Sends to the CSCI :: "They're bouncing the transmission off way too many relays to get a fix on them."
21:29	Bot:	@ McMahon >+[ Eagle ]+ ::nodding slightly:: Okay. We'd have to meet up in a neutral area, one I know it wouldn't be a trap.
21:29	LtCmdr_Avala_Muren:	CSci> ::sends back:: I can't find them either..but I don't like this one bit.
21:30	CaptMcCloud:	CO >+[ McMahon ]+ Tell you what, Captain. To show my sincerity, I will travel by shuttle to meet you. We have another ... situation here that will keep the Eagle busy. So... you pick the place, I'll meet you there.
21:31	Moonshadows:	TAC>::Her tail thumps the deck.... If Independence could detect Eagle, the reverse should be true::
21:32	Bot:	@ McMahon >+[ Eagle ]+ ::nods:: Agreed. We will transmit the coordinates momentarily. Standby, Captain. ::gestures to mute the channel::
21:32	LtCmdr_Avala_Muren:	CSci>[TAC] ::whispers:: I agree. I don't trust them.
21:32	CmdrJorel:	(( the xo would STRONGLY object to the Captain leaving in a shuttle ))
21:33	CaptMcCloud:	CO >+[ McMahon ]+ I'll be waiting. Eagle out.
21:34	LtCmdr_Avala_Muren:	CSci> [CO] I beg your pardon sir, but since we have no idea where the Indy is, nor any way to verify that was actually McMahon.....I must respectfully voice my objection to leaving to meet him
21:34	CaptMcCloud:	(I KNOW she would. :) )
21:34	Moonshadows:	TAC>[CSCI] Nor do I....
21:35	Bot:	=/\=ACTION: A moment later, the comm-link goes dead and Wren receives the coordinates for the meet. =/\=
21:35	LtCmdr_Avala_Muren:	CSCi> ::mutters:: THis is dammed irregular.
21:35	JazzyFarrell:	SEC>: heads for the Bridge
21:36	Lt_Wren:	Ops >[ CO ] Captain, I"ve got the coordinates. And I must add my objection as well Captain. This is most likely a trap.
21:36	Bot:	Knl Emmett >[ XO ] I would like to return to one of our bases as soon as possible.
21:37	CaptMcCloud:	CO >[ ALL ] :: Looks from Wren, then around the bridge:: Objections noted. Yes, it could be a trap, but how many times have we heard of a ship being "railroaded" and not being givein the fair shake?
21:37	CmdrJorel:	xo >[ ke ] I will confer with the Captain, but at this point, I don't see a reason not to. If you will provide us with the coordinates.
21:38	Moonshadows:	TAC>{CSCI] Irregular... Yes, full of something... ::Tail loops::
21:38	CaptMcCloud:	CO >[ ALL ] And look at it this way... If it is a trap, that is a move up for most of you. :: smiles::
21:38	Moonshadows:	TAC>[co] If it is a trap, we are outgunned...
21:38	LtCmdr_Avala_Muren:	CSci> ::shakes her head::
21:39	Lt_Wren:	Ops> :: mutters :: not very comforting
21:39	CaptMcCloud:	CO >[ TAC ] That is another reason I do not want to simply commit the ship to this... meeting.
21:39	LtCmdr_Avala_Muren:	CSci> ::sends the coordinates they were given to Banning with the message:: Look for signs of a cloaked ship in that vicinity
21:40	Bot:	Knl Emmett >[ XO ] I can provide them for you.
21:41	Lt_Banning:	SCI > :: receives the message, and trains scanners in that area::
21:41	Moonshadows:	TAC>::QUietly disapproves::
21:41	Bot:	=/\=ACTION: Banning finds it is "just too far" for any kind of comprehensive scan. =/\=
21:42	Lt_Banning:	SCI > ::Frowns and sends the info to CSCI::
21:42	LtCmdr_Avala_Muren:	CSci> ::to Banning:: Can we deploy any sort of tachyon beam in that area without being detected?
21:43	CaptMcCloud:	CO >[ TAC ] Lt Moonshadows. I want you to accompany me. We will take the Eagle's Wing.
21:43	CmdrJorel:	xo >[ ke ] good.
21:43	Lt_Banning:	SCI > :: Sends to CSCI :: "Negative, Commander. We would have to get IN that area. It is just too far off."
21:43	CmdrJorel:	xo >[ ke ] do you need anything while you and your people are here?
21:44	Moonshadows:	TAC>[CO] Aye sir... I suppose we could name a shuttle the "Wren" ::Whiskers spread in smile::
21:44	CaptMcCloud:	CO >+[ XO ]+ Bridge to Commander Jorel.
21:44	Lt_Wren:	Ops >[ Tac ] I heard that Moon.
21:44	LtCmdr_Avala_Muren:	CSci> ::Is racking her brain for ideas::
21:45	CmdrJorel:	xo >+[ co ]+ Jorel here Captain.
21:45	CaptMcCloud:	CO >+[ XO ]+ Progress report, Commander.
21:45	Bot:	Knl Emmett > :: raises brows, looking at Jorel and the communicator::
21:46	CaptMcCloud:	CO > :: Looks over to OPS:: Have the Wing readied.
21:47	CmdrJorel:	xo >+[ co ]+ I have been talking with Knl Emmett, the leader of the people we picked up. They were tracking a fugitive, when he got the upper hand. They would like to return to one of their bases as quickly as they can.
21:48	CaptMcCloud:	CO >+[ XO ]+ That will not be a problem, Commander. You will take the Eagle and get them home.
21:50	CmdrJorel:	xo >+[ co ]+ :: pauses :: Where are you going to be Captain?
21:50	Dr_Fenway:	AMO > :: walking over to the XO, hears the captain's words::
21:51	CaptMcCloud:	CO >[ XO ] :: a momentary pause:: Lt. Moonshadows and I will be taking the Wing on a rendezvous.
21:51	Moonshadows:	TAC>[NOIP] I don't get to "go home?" ::TAIL CORKSCREWS::
21:53	CmdrJorel:	xo >+[ co ]+ :: frowns :: I don't like the sound of that Captain. I would like to meet you before you leave sir.
21:54	Dr_Fenway:	AMO >[ NOIP ] A rendezvous? I don't like that either.
21:55	CaptMcCloud:	CO >+[ XO ]+ Your objection is noted along with all the others on the ship, Commander. Find an officer to take over with our guests and meet me at the dock for the Wing.
21:55	CmdrJorel:	xo >+[ co ]+ Aye sir. I will meet you there shortly.
21:56	CaptMcCloud:	CO >+[ OPS ]+ Lt. Wren. You have the bridge until relieved by Commander Jorel.
21:56	Moonshadows:	TAC>[XO] Commander, it is an adventure.... I will take you home to poke slashbacks with a stick if you like ::Tail tightens::
21:56	Lt_Wren:	Ops >[ CO ] aye sir.
21:57	CaptMcCloud:	CO >[ TAC ] Let's go, Lieutenant.
21:58	LtCmdr_Avala_Muren:	((Gnight all sorry to bug))
21:58	CaptMcCloud:	CO > :: stops just as he is entering the TL, and looks back to the bridge crew.:: [ ALL ] Just remember, Crew. Trust has to start somewhere.
