RES TALON MISSION BRIEFING 51312.05 - Season 18

The Talon and StoneReaver have venture deep within a dense asteroid field, in search of a faint reading that is triggering the sensitive mineral tracker they have installed upon both vessels. Due to the nature of the field, it appears that the reading is just that of a mineral deposit, and the StoneReaver is moving forward to check it out. Meanwhile, Talon attempts to continue to protect both ships from stray and potentially harmful rocks that are coming towards them from all directions. Meanwhile, the Kheinsa is interviewing the Daise Dheno.

tAehjae -> :: continuing to speak with Kheinsa::

Kheinsa Maec -> So let's recap this again. Au have na friends. Au have na hobbies. And au have na problem with this?

Koga S'Bien -> ::doing his best not to hit any rocks::

Lerak trPexil -> :: In main engineering at the console ::

KhreRiovtRex -> Ne'Arrain t'Salen> ::sees Pexil rhae the oira:: Rekkhai, do au wish to see these readings?

KhreRiovtRex -> tr'Dario> +Talon+ We'

Laehval tTemarr -> ::Laehval kept an eye on the sensor scans as they came in, waiting for the last Othan ship to appear.::

KhreRiovtRex -> are going to move in and attempt to harvest that ore, we'll keep scanning for other signals

Lerak trPexil -> (Oh, I'm on the oira? :) )

KhreRiovtRex -> (I could be wrong....stay where you are)

KhreRiovtRex -> (Retract that )

Lerak trPexil -> (Dreaming of Pexil, I understand)

Koga S'Bien -> (I Dream of Pexil)

Kheinsa Maec -> ::leans back in his chair, waiting for a response from t'Aehjae::

EvietMahren -> (( Maybe you should be the one seeing Maec... ;) ))

 

ACTION: The StoneReaver moves towards the dense cluster or rock to start harvesting

 

Koga S'Bien -> (lol.. he already did!)

KhreRiovtRex -> (I think he needs to schedule a follow up)

EvietMahren -> (( I suspect a follow-up session may be needed))

Koga S'Bien -> (lol)

Kheinsa Maec -> (I've only done an evaluation, I haven't fixed anyone yet))

Lerak trPexil -> :: Feels a headache coming on as Koga steers between the rocks. The rocks may as well have been in Pexil's head ::

 

ACTION: tAehjae, while exhausted from her shift, actually doses off on Maec, while trying to avoid answering his question

 

M_K_tKsa -> ::drums her fingers against the desk, staring at data 'cause that's what she does now, stares at data::

Laehval tTemarr -> S'Bien, keep an eye on the Stonereaver to make certain they do na get into any trouble. They do na have our defenses and I do na want them exploding on us.

Koga S'Bien -> Yes sir..

KhreRiovtRex -> @ tr'Dario> :: orders the StoneReaver into the region to begin harvesting, and sends out 2 small cutter ships to laser away some of the unneeded rubble::

Kheinsa Maec -> ::takes this quiet time as t'Aehjae sleeps to make notes::

EvietMahren -> ::gathering up her ISD and taking a deep breath, heads for the lift, prepping herself to brief t'Temarr::

Koga S'Bien -> ::Keeping an eye on Stone Reavers movements::

tAehjae -> (( sorry Computer crash had to reboot))

tAehjae -> :: sitting in Kheinsa office:: (I think)

Kheinsa Maec -> So let's recap this again. Au have na friends. Au have na hobbies. And au have na problem with this?

EvietMahren -> ::steps into the lift, straightening, her spine popping as she does so, and rolling her neck to work out some of the kinks from doing so much...desk work::

M_K_tKsa -> ::flips over to her SRM screen for a moment::

tAehjae -> Na I na problem with it. I serve this vessel and its CO

EvietMahren -> ::stepping out onto the oira, looking to Laeh::

Kheinsa Maec -> And, let's say, that same CO mandated that au were to take leave for....oh...I do know.... a week. What would au do?

KhreRiovtRex -> (we had you nod off while you were gone)

Laehval tTemarr -> ::Glances to the lift out of habit as it opens (one could never be too vigilant about assassins) and gives t'Mahren a nod.::

tAehjae -> I would ask na to I have na reason to take a leave if it is na required

tAehjae -> ((oh ok thanks.. Lol))

EvietMahren -> ::nods, crossing to her:: If I might have a word?

Lerak trPexil -> :: Rubs his temple ::

Kheinsa Maec -> Let's say it is required. What would au do?

KhreRiovtRex -> Ne'Arrain t'Salen> ::turnd to Koga:: would au look at this reading fhaen...?

KhreRiovtRex -> ne'Arrain t'Salen> ::points to screen::

Laehval tTemarr -> Ie... ::Turns to Koga as she rises from her seat.:: S'Bien, inform me with any developments. ::She passed Evie and led the way to the Enarrain's chambers.::

tAehjae -> I would ask na to, but if I was told I had to I would spend my time alone in my quarters

 

ACTION: StoneReaver continues to harvest

 

Kheinsa Maec -> But the ship is being retrofited and fumigated. Au can't stay on the ship. Now what?

Koga S'Bien -> Will do.

EvietMahren -> ::follows t'Temarr, scrolling through the information in the ISD one last time::

KhreRiovtRex -> ((Pokes the Canadian))

M_K_tKsa -> ::makes note to request a massage therapist for the ship when they return to ch'Rihan::

M_K_tKsa -> ::all because she's looking at a SRM menu::

Koga S'Bien -> ::watches them Harvest::

tAehjae -> I would remain in a quarters provided. Why do au ask

Laehval tTemarr -> ::Takes a seat behind her desk and steeples her fingers over her stomach as she leaned back.:: What have au learned?

KhreRiovtRex -> Ne'Arrain t'Salen> :::frowns at the lack of response::

Kheinsa Maec -> ::makes a few notes:: I ask because it's my job. ::looking up:: Now. Let's do some word association, shall we? I'll give au a word, au tell me the first thing that comes to mind, ie?

EvietMahren -> This will sound a touch... paranoid, but I believe that t'Ksa and I have stumbled onto a conspiracy of the highest order.

KhreRiovtRex -> Ne'Arrain t'Salen> ::na sure what to do since her request was ignored::

Koga S'Bien -> ::Looksup from monitoring the Stonereaver to see what Salen was talking about:: Sorry, the readings?

KhreRiovtRex -> ACTION: SENSORS SUDDENLY SHOW A STRONG SECOND SIGNAL COMING FROM DIRECTLY BHIND THE OTHER ASTEROID THAT WAS BEING HARVESTED

EvietMahren -> ::passing the ISD to Laeh, having booted up a mind map of sorts, showing the findings and links::

tAehjae -> Ie Rekkhai

Koga S'Bien -> Wait.. what's that?

 

ACTION: SHIP DECLOAKS AND STARTS TO FIRE AT THE STONE REAVER

 

Koga S'Bien -> Ahh.. crap.

Kheinsa Maec -> We'll start simple. Ship.

Laehval tTemarr -> ::She quirked a brow.:: Paranoia is what drives our race. It would na surprise me if au had. ::She took the ISD and scanned it.::

Koga S'Bien -> +Laeh+ Stone Reaver is being attacked!

tAehjae -> Talon

EvietMahren -> While acquiring the medication for t'Vatrix, we discovered a store of biological agent in medical storage.

KhreRiovtRex -> Ne'Arrain tSalen> That...is what I was trying to tell au

Koga S'Bien -> ::plots in an intercept course:: Let's get those weapons ready. Shields are online.

Kheinsa Maec -> Sun

Koga S'Bien -> Oh, fantastic.

Lerak trPexil -> :: Go time :: Everyone ready....

tAehjae -> Light

Kheinsa Maec -> Ball.

 

ACTION: Stone Reaver, disengages it's cutters and lasers, and attempts to put up shields, however already too damaged to raise the forwards shields

 

tAehjae -> Fire

EvietMahren -> ::wry grin:: That agent is one that was developed during the Dominion War, and all reserves were to be destroyed at the war's conclusion.

Kheinsa Maec -> Sand.

tAehjae -> Granule

Koga S'Bien -> ::booking it to where the Stone Reaver was::

Kheinsa Maec -> Water

tAehjae -> Thrist

KhreRiovtRex -> tr'Dario> +Talon+ We need assistance....NOW!!

EvietMahren -> It appears that someone within Othan space has acquired remaining reserves.

KhreRiovtRex -> tr'Dario> @ Fire at that ship...

Koga S'Bien -> +Dario+ We're on our way.

Kheinsa Maec -> ::makes a few more scribbles:: Umbrella

Lerak trPexil -> :: Prepares the transporters for quick retrieval ::

tAehjae -> Rain

Kheinsa Maec -> Fish

EvietMahren -> The second file au will find includes an manifest, showing the antiserum currently inventoried by the same medical facility.

 

ACTION:: Othans stealth ship cloaks and ducks into the asteroid field

 

tAehjae -> Food

Koga S'Bien -> As soon as we're within range, open fire. ::to the dude at Tactical::

Kheinsa Maec -> Bird

Laehval tTemarr -> +S'Bien+ Protect them. I do na wish for them to be destroyed. And track the ship!

tAehjae -> Flying

Kheinsa Maec -> Towel

Laehval tTemarr -> ::She sighed and peered back at t'Mahren, waving the ISD.:: These Othans are going to be the death of me.

Koga S'Bien -> THey went into that asteroid field. See if you can track them ::to Salen::

 

ACTION: Othan ship swing back around behind the asteroid and fires at the Talon....

 

Koga S'Bien -> Target their engines

KhreRiovtRex -> t'Salen> They're coming right for us!!

tAehjae -> Dry

Kheinsa Maec -> Surf

EvietMahren -> I couldn't have said it better, myself.

EvietMahren -> ::lips thin::

tAehjae -> Surf?

Laehval tTemarr -> These reserves, do they belong to the Othan?

Koga S'Bien -> I see them.

Kheinsa Maec -> Ie. Surf. ::motions for her to say the first thing that comes to mind::

tAehjae -> Water

Koga S'Bien -> Tactical Dude> ::fires at the Othan ship's engines and weapons array::

Kheinsa Maec -> Smurf

tAehjae -> :: shrugs::

KhreRiovtRex -> tr'Dario> +Talon+ We've taken extensive damage to our forward shields, we can't take much more there, we need to protect us

tAehjae -> Blue?

tAehjae -> :: giving odd looks at the words::

tAehjae -> *being asked:::

Kheinsa Maec -> Au know what that is?

Lerak trPexil -> :: Watching the shield levels and that of the Stonereaver ::

Kheinsa Maec -> ::wonders if she is a Lloann'na spy::

EvietMahren -> Call it a...hunch, I believe the Lloann'na say, but I believe that the Othans may be in league with someone back on homeworld to attack our own people.

tAehjae -> Na

Kheinsa Maec -> Moving on then.

Laehval tTemarr -> Do au know what this biological agent does?

Koga S'Bien -> ::uses the size of the Talon as a barrier for the Stone Reaver, as they take on the Othan ship::

Kheinsa Maec -> Float.

tAehjae -> I thought it may have something to do with water .. water is blue

KhreRiovtRex -> (and Blue is good!)

tAehjae -> suspend in air

Kheinsa Maec -> Shell

EvietMahren -> ::nods:: I am...intimately familiar with the agent. It is highly infectious, and timely use of an antiserum would be necessary to save millions of lives.

tAehjae -> ((Ie Blue is good))

tAehjae -> Cassing

Laehval tTemarr -> How quickly does it kill?

EvietMahren -> Within 24 to 48 hours, depending on the viral load.

EvietMahren -> I've included an estimated fatality rate, courtesy of t'Ksa.

 

ACTION: Othan ship ducks out from behind the rocks again, and fires at the Talon again. It's pilot evidently quite skilled in the rocky environs of the asteroid field

Kheinsa Maec -> Hmmm...Interesting. ::makes more notes on his ISD:: I think that'll be all for now for au's evaluation. I predict we will be talking again real soon.

EvietMahren -> The problem is that, as closely as I can calculate, even the Othans do not have enough antiserum to treat their own conspirators.

EvietMahren -> They will need a secondary source.

Koga S'Bien -> They have the advantage in maneuverability. I'll have to anticipate their movements in those asteroids..

tAehjae -> real soon? Explain?

Lerak trPexil -> :: Watching the damage to be repaired come in ::

Koga S'Bien -> See if you can track them as soon as we can see them through these rocks, return fire,

 

ACTION: The Othan ship pops out again to fire upon the Talon (Koga where are you tracking them. 1-6 for your sides , top and bottom)

 

Kheinsa Maec -> Oh, I don't think that's necessary at this time. ::oh so innocent looking smile:: For now, rest well. And I'll contact au for our next session.

Koga S'Bien -> (4)

Laehval tTemarr -> They likely already have io, or are in the process of obtaining io. ::Pursing her lips, she turned toward the asteroid field outside.:: Have au done anything to trace the agent back to the initial source?

Koga S'Bien -> (2, and 5)

KhreRiovtRex -> Uhm...ok...

tAehjae -> :: gives him a curious look:: Very well. ::stands::

Kheinsa Maec -> Jolan tru, Daise.

M_K_tKsa -> ::feeling the rumbles of something:: Oh that can na be good.

 

ACTION: As Koga tracks them, they fire at the Aft shields, swing beneath the ship hitting her on the belly, and again on the port side shields before disappearing again.....

 

KhreRiovtRex -> (that's for the 3 hits!)

tAehjae -> Jolan Tru :: nods respectfully and turns to leave::

EvietMahren -> I have. As closely as I have been able to tell, *we* are the current source -- the agent was initially developed by our own people for use against the Cardassians, should the need arise. As I mentioned, "official" records state all stores were destroyed after the war.

Koga S'Bien -> (Ahh. Bad luck)

KhreRiovtRex -> @ TrDario> +Talon+ We can't go after them and have to protect our downed shields, but we can help you triangulate....spread out a bit, we can take care of ourselves for a siuren

Kheinsa Maec -> ((Ya think??)

EvietMahren -> Were we able to obtain a sample, we might be able to trace the specific origin, but I don't believe that's necessary to act.

Koga S'Bien -> (Numbers aren't on my side today.. what can you do? )

EvietMahren -> And I feel that the risk to do so far outweighs the outcome.

Kheinsa Maec -> ::watching her leave, waiting a full io suiren for her to be completely out of sight before shaking his head::

tAehjae -> :: exits Kheinsa office and sighs after the door closes::

Kheinsa Maec -> ((and tonight's secret word of the day was..............))

 

ACTION> Talon has felt the ship being pounded by weapons fire, it's only a manner of time unill all the sheilds are damaged

 

Koga S'Bien -> +Dario+ Alright.

Laehval tTemarr -> Official records state that they were destroyed, but they were na, then this conspiracy is from the highest levels. ::Glances back to t'Mahren.:: But au are right. The source is na important, unless we discover their secondary source and prevent them from obtaining more. I would be more interested in destroying the stockpile and recovering a sample of the antiserum.

M_K_tKsa -> I think they're doing this because they think I need work. The Oira knows how long it takes me to put the pieces of the crew back together again when they go picking fights.

KhreRiovtRex -> @ trDario> +Talon+ We're picking up a reading coming fast from above au....adjust your sheilds and fire

Lerak trPexil -> :: Sends notifications to the repair teams ::

EvietMahren -> According to research I requested of t'Ksa, there are only two sources remaining for the antiserum. One is on homeworld; the other is Lloann'na, found on Earth.

Kheinsa Maec -> ::scowls as she spies the Daise' Dheno coming out of the hallway near the Kheinsa's office:: Would au *please* go tell the Oira to keep the ship io piece for once.

KhreRiovtRex -> @tr'Dario _+Talon+ Did au get that?

Koga S'Bien -> ::tries tracking the stealth ship as best he can, trying to figure what he would do if he were piloting that ship::

Koga S'Bien -> +Dario+ Got it

 

ACTION: Othan ship fires again from above and darts away

 

Koga S'Bien -> ::adjusts shields and forwards co-ordinates to Tactical to fire from the above::

EvietMahren -> ::pauses a beat:: Given the recent smuggling activity between the Othan fleet and Lloann'na, I suspect it may be possible for them to obtain the antiserum from Lloann'na sources.

EvietMahren -> If this is the case, then we have connections within their intelligence community which may be of service to us in this matter.

Laehval tTemarr -> ::She blinked.:: The Lloann'na? Did they develop their own? Did they obtain it from a traitor? Or did they steal it?

tAehjae -> :: steps into the lift:: +Oira+ tAehjae to tTemarr, I have completed my session with Maec, Do au wish I return to the Oira or My Dheno post.

KhreRiovtRex -> @trDario> +Talon+ What the fvahdt is going rhae over there.........?? I told au that they were coming to fire upon au

EvietMahren -> It was a joint undertaking.

Koga S'Bien -> +Dario+ You did. They were too fast for us to react.

Laehval tTemarr -> +t'Aehjae+ Au are needed on the Oira. Return to Tactical. There is still io Othan ship left.

Koga S'Bien -> t'A+ We need au here at Tactical.. they're really quick.

Lerak trPexil -> :: Seeing far too much red on the shield grid for his liking ::

Koga S'Bien -> (scratch that)

tAehjae -> Oira!

tAehjae -> +tTemarr+ on my way rekkhai

 

ACTION: ETREEH REPORTS THAT SHEILDS ARE DOWN TO 47%

 

Kheinsa Maec -> ::exiting his office and heading into main medical to help out as he knows there will be soon an ongoing rush of patients::

Kheinsa Maec -> ::can na help though from stopping behind t'Ksa and muttering in her ear;: What the fvadt have au done to me, stranding me on this ship full of crazy Rihan?

tAehjae -> ::: exits the lift onto the Oira and moves to tactical::

M_K_tKsa -> At least it's job security. :: shifting equipment around::

Lerak trPexil -> Talon: :: Watches the repair teams go ::M_K_tKsa -> Talon: Au will never be bored. Plenty of work for au to do.

Koga S'Bien -> Talon: Glad au are here. ::to t'A:: One more left.. they fire on us and dart away before we can react. We'll need to act quick if we have any hope in hitting them. Again, if au can try to get their engines. We'd prefer it if we can get them alive.

Kheinsa Maec -> Talon: We're going to need to talk when this is all through. Come up with a plan. ::shakes his heads, moving to a station::

Laehval tTemarr -> Talon: ::She nodded, contemplating.:: Au are skilled in the ways of espionage, that much can na be denied. I would like au to think on this conspiracy and give me options on how au think we should move forward to uncover more.

KhreRiovtRex -> Talon: @ tr'Dario> Talon, we're picking them up again...coming in from directly below au

tAehjae -> Talon: :: sits at her station:: Ie Let’s see what we can catch.

Koga S'Bien -> Talon: Below.. shields up and fire below us.

M_K_tKsa -> Talon: Oh goodie. A plot to further mess with my fellow crewmember's health. ::sarcastically:: I can na wait.

 

Action: Othan ship decloaks and goes to fire from below the Talon

 

EvietMahren -> Talon: I believe a return to home world may be necessary... to investigate those who may yet be involved in our highest echelons.

tAehjae -> Talon: :: starts scanning for engines::

Koga S'Bien -> Talon: There they are

tAehjae -> Talon: Below us!

Koga S'Bien -> Talon: Fire

tAehjae -> Talon: ::fires::

 

ACTION: Talon hits the Othan ship with a crippling shot, sending them skittering off to their port side, unable to cloak
