[Capt Rian Kwai 0]

USS Republic Mission Briefing 51410.13 - Season 22: The crew of the Republic has gone down to Ambrose 9 to investigate why there have picked up no communications from this and several other settlements, and have found the horrific remains of what appears to have been slaughtered colonists

 

STSF_BluRox -> BEGIN SIM

STSF_BluRox -> BEGIN SIM

Capt Rian Kwai -> !@#$%^&*() Just unicorns and rainbows around here. ::sighs, not liking the situation at all::

Ayumu Kasuga -> !@#$%^&*() ::looking about::

LtCmdrRobinson -> !@#$%^&*() OK, lifeform check folks. And then scan 5 more times. Because someone somewhere is eating folks around here.

STSF_BluRox -> Random Science guy> :: turns to Heather:: My scans show the same thing, these were all extremely elderly colonist, and one that appears to have been younger, but he had some sort of severe injury, and appears to have been paralyzed from the waist down.

August Jax Robinson -> !@#$%^&*() clearly no one is left ::freaked out:: we should leave too

Capt Rian Kwai -> !@#$%^&*() Do we have an idea of a time of death here?

Heather Jamieson -> !@#$%^&*() :: Gathering samples ::

LtCmdrRobinson -> !@#$%^&*() Smells like about a week

Heather Jamieson -> !@#$%^&*() :: looks to the RSG :: Yeah, those that were not in optimal condition. I would estimate 8 days, perhaps 9.

LtCmdrRobinson -> !@#$%^&*() Lets get moving, check the rest of the buildings.

Ayumu Kasuga -> !@#$%^&*() ::nods::

Heather Jamieson -> !@#$%^&*() :: Moves with the rest of the group :: I'm trying to think of what could have caused this.

August Jax Robinson -> !@#$%^&*() ::Looks at her Tric...:: I don't like this ::gives Will The Look::

LtCmdrRobinson -> !@#$%^&*() ::moves towards the next building to look for some people that might still be alive and not eaten::

STSF_BluRox -> Random Science guy: :: walks over to Heather:: We checked in the main settlement. It appears that the rest of the settlement has been stripped of anything of value All food stores, plants, equipment.....it's all gone.

Heather Jamieson -> !@#$%^&*() :: Thinks :: Yeah... deliberate actions.

 

STSF_BluRox -> !@#$%^&*() Random Science guy: It's as though they had a mass evacuation...but how does that tie into the dead old and sick people?

Heather Jamieson -> !@#$%^&*() So, the victims are either old or somehow disabled and everything else is gone.

Heather Jamieson -> !@#$%^&*() Perhaps the able bodied people panicked and left them behind.. but from what

Capt Rian Kwai -> Would you leave behind your elders?

STSF_BluRox -> ~!@#$$%^&*() Random Science guy: But....why....do what they did to them? Butcher them? What kind of farmers where these people?

August Jax Robinson -> !@#$%^&*() maybe the elders sent the healthy young people away so they don't die here... like them ::Points::

STSF_BluRox -> !@#$#%^&*&(*( Random Science guy> ::stench finally gets to him:: Excuse me... :: moves towards a tree and retches::

Heather Jamieson -> !@#$%^&*() I don't believe I would, but then again we don't exactly what happened. This will be in my hair. I'll have to stay in the shower for hours.

August Jax Robinson -> !@#$%^&*() if it was either keep my kids here and watch them die or send them off... then give them the best shot.. make them go

Capt Rian Kwai -> !@#$%^&*() Will, is there anything else you think we can learn about here?

Ayumu Kasuga -> !@#$%^&*() ::Still feeling lightheaded from the stench and barfing about a million times so far, but still slowly keeping up with the rest of the team:: I feel you. I'm probably going to just toss these clothes straight into the trash.

LtCmdrRobinson -> !@#$%^&*() ::Shrugs:: If they had to evac, they may have had limited shuttle space. But these colonies don’t usually have long range transport, just short range shuttles. Either they took off somewhere close by, or someone grabbed the others.

 

STSF_BluRox -> !@#$$%^&(*) > Random Science guy> But that doesn't make much sense. Why leave people in cages to eat each other, why butcher some of the others? that's disgusting? And where would they go. We are thinking they left on their own, but how does this relate to the weapons fire on the relay station? It's almost like someone took them, and was trying to prevent anyone from knowing? Why?

Heather Jamieson -> !@#$%^&*() :: Shakes her head :: Question is, where do we go next?

August Jax Robinson -> !@#$%^&*() Risa?

Ayumu Kasuga -> !@#$%^&*() Anywhere is better is here

STSF_BluRox -> !@#$$%^&*(& Random Science guy> :: points over at Kwai:: Probably up to her and BluRox. There were several other colonies we'd not heard from. I'd imagine we'll have to check them out as well. However, in light of what we've seen here, I find I almost have to agree with Commander Robinson....Jax that is...

Heather Jamieson -> !@#$%^&*() :: Takes more images ::

STSF_BluRox -> (Will wins Blu's "he's a smart cookie award for tonight, and tonight and tonight's 'get out of peril free' card)

LtCmdrRobinson -> !@#$%^&*() Well if we aren’t getting any life signs here, we should head back to the ship and start scanning for signs of ship movement lately. See what we can find.

August Jax Robinson -> !@#$%^&*() ::Stays close to Will::

Capt Rian Kwai -> !@#$%^&*() Agreed. Let's pack it up and head back to the ship.

 

STSF_BluRox -> !@#$$%^&*&^ Random Science guy> ::walks over to join the others and as he crossed over in front of Will, steps on the end of a broken rake, causing it to flip up and hit him in the head with the handle: Owwwwww! ::holds hand to head::

Ayumu Kasuga -> !@#$%^&*() ::Turns:: OOoh.

LtCmdrRobinson -> !@#$%^&*() Outstanding.

Heather Jamieson -> !@#$%^&*() :: Hurries over to Science guy :: You alright?

August Jax Robinson -> !@#$%^&*() ::Looks at Will:: I think you should shoot him

Heather Jamieson -> !@#$%^&*() :: Touches RSG's head, switches her scanner for a moment ::

Heather Jamieson -> !@#$%^&*() :: Looks :: Nothing serious. :: smiles ::

STSF_BluRox -> !@#$%$^&**() Random Science guy> Yea, I'm fine.....just taking one for the team I guess. Better I took it than the Commander

LtCmdrRobinson -> !@#$%^&*() ::doesn’t step on rakes, ever::

STSF_BluRox -> +Kwai+ This is Blu, what's your status down there?

Capt Rian Kwai -> !@#$%^&*()+BluRox+ Just about ready to request a transport back up to the ship. Whenever you're ready.

STSF_BluRox -> +Kwai+ We'll beam you up now...

LtCmdrRobinson -> !@#$%^&*() Or we could take that shuttle....that we brought down. Or remote recall it, if you are in a hurry

Ayumu Kasuga -> !@#$%^&*() Was gonna say.

STSF_BluRox -> Ops...beam up Kwai, the rest can bring the shuttle back up. I want to debrief her.

Capt Rian Kwai -> !@#$%^&*() You can take the shuttle, I want to speak to Blu about what we've found personally. ::thinking she didn't want to be into the shuttle with the yacker anyway::

 

STSF_BluRox -> ACTION: Kwai is beamed back to the ship

 

August Jax Robinson -> !@#$%^&*() ::Sneers:: lets move it people

Ayumu Kasuga -> !@#$%^&*() ::heads back to the shuttle::

 

STSF_BluRox -> ACTION: TEAM BRINGS SHUTTLE BACK TO THE SHIP, AND THE SEARCH GOES ON. AFTER INVESTIGATING 3 OTHER COLONY WORLDS AND FINDING THE SAME RESULTS, BUT THE DEAD A BIT FRESHER, WE MAY BE GETTING CLOSER AND ARE NOW HEADING TOWARDS THE 5TH COLONY WE WERE GOING TO INVESTIGATE.

 

LtCmdrRobinson -> !@#$%^&*() I think Kwai took the transporter because she thought it would get the smell out of her uniform.

STSF_BluRox -> :: on the bridge:: Rian, I'd like to call a meeting can you get everyone up here to meet in 10 minutes

Capt Rian Kwai -> No problem. I think I'm going to change first. I have a spare uniform in my office.

Heather Jamieson -> :: Feeling a bit queasy ::

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::in her quarters, taking a shower::

STSF_BluRox -> Alright, I'll see you there. I am deeply troubled by what the teams have found on these 4 worlds. :: heads to the briefing room:

Heather Jamieson -> :: Throwing water on her face ::

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::Finishes and changes into a new uniform::

Heather Jamieson -> :: shivers a moment LL

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::47 showers later, still can smell it::

STSF_BluRox -> PAUSE SIM

STSF_BluRox -> PAUSE SIM

 

August Jax Robinson -> ::Paused::

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::psd::

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::Paused::

August Jax Robinson -> Shower?! I would have let our fearless leader smell us ;)

STSF_BluRox -> You think I'm ever going to let you on my bridge smelling like that.....ewww.....

Heather Jamieson -> I must be going to bed however.. more tired simmer ever.

Capt Rian Kwai -> Smell-o-vision

STSF_BluRox -> (in a Jimmie Fallon type of 'ewww'

Ayumu Kasuga -> lol.

STSF_BluRox -> And there she is

August Jax Robinson -> I was in NYC, Penn station. I watched someone spray themselves with air freshner for 20 minutes

STSF_BluRox -> Great timing Nickles..... the Away Team sacrificed your cardboard cutout to the witchdoctor

STSF_BluRox -> he should have used Febreeze

Christina_Nickles -> sorry had to reconfigure the laptop to use dialup.. :( The house Im sitting at doesn’t not have Broadband
