Mission Briefing: RES Talon Mission Briefing 51411.06 - Season 19 -

 

The Talon’s away team has boarded the Galae Orbital Station and was met by Galae forces. Things are tense aboard the station, though it appears to be under Galae control. The team has been allowed to explore the station but are more than likely being watched.

Everyone remember what they were doing last time?

Lerak trPexil -> :: Looking over his ISD, the list ::

Koga S'Bien -> ::Looking around standing with the others::

M_K_tKsa -> ::trying to decide how much of her list she should use because as extensive as it is, it could indicate a weakness in at least io department on Talon:: You have plans once we return planet side, Etre tr'Pexil? ::attemping small talk as she inventories all she sees::

tAehjae -> :: her hand on her weapon as it remains in its holster exploring the station::

Lerak trPexil -> I, well, ie, but na. I just don't know what the other person would like to do.. or na.

Lerak trPexil -> I sent an overture, but na answer. :: Identifying containers the items are in ::

 

ACTION> t'Aehjae and S'Bien notice that while things on the station seemed calm on the surface, the officers just out of their hearing were whispering heatedly among themselves. Whenever they saw t'Aehjae or S'Bien looking in their direction, they would grow silent until they were certain they wouldn't be overheard.

 

Koga S'Bien -> ::walking near t'A as he also explores the station, listens for anything special newswise::

M_K_tKsa -> Perhaps au's companion is busy at the moment. Au know how the Khre'Riov is.

Koga S'Bien -> Hmm. ::keeps walking:: The silence is deafening.

tAehjae -> @Koga au notice they stop speaking when au or I look towards them?

tAehjae -> @ I wish we could hear what they are speaking of

Laehval tTemarr -> Station Quartermaster> ::Approaches t'Ksa and tr'Pexil with a frown. A bevy of junior officers followed in his wake, all carrying ISDs which they tapped at rapidly. He looked down his nose at the pair.:: Are you supposed to be here?

Lerak trPexil -> Ie, everyone is busy. :: A sense of uneasiness swept over him :: I will stay at my parents, visit the vineyard and then my own subterrainian home.

Koga S'Bien -> Ie. They are most definitely hiding something.

Lerak trPexil -> :: Looked up from his ISD :: Ie we are.

Lerak trPexil -> And au are?

 

tAehjae -> :: continues walking slowly::

M_K_tKsa -> ::sour pickles scowl at the Quartermaster, giving them the impression that tr'Pexil is the friendlier of the two Talon officers::

tAehjae -> Can au read lips? Maybe we can figure out what they are saying?

Lerak trPexil -> :: Looks at a gross of self-sealing stem bolts, good for holding plating together ::

Koga S'Bien -> I can try, but it's hardly my specialty. How good are you at reading lips?

Laehval tTemarr -> Station officers> ::Seem to be avoiding t'Aehjae and S'Bien at all costs, keeping out of earshot or simply not talking at all until the pair passes by. At the entrance to one of the corridors that lead further into the station, a female Rihan out of uniform seems to be watching them with interest.::

Laehval tTemarr -> Station Quartermaster> I am in charge of the station's supplies. Who gave you authorization to be in here. ::sour pickles scowl at t'Ksa's sour pickles scowl.::

Laehval tTemarr -> *?

Koga S'Bien -> We could try sitting at a table with a drink or something, feigning having lunch or something and try to read their lips or expressions? Wish we were able to get any information from the local news nets, that's for sure.

Lerak trPexil -> ( just who did anyhow )

Laehval tTemarr -> (( Some unnamed high-ranking Galae officer. He/she would have given you a signed authorization on your ISD, I imagine. ))

Lerak trPexil -> :: Looks at the quartermaster :: Someone of a higher rank than either of us. I have it here. Sad day when we keep the flagship of the fleet waiting. :: hands over ISD with the signature ::

 

tAehjae -> I am na very good. ::walks up on the entrance to the corridor:: Think we should explore that area?

M_K_tKsa -> Is it na customary for those in need of resupplying to come to the Quartermaster's for those supplies? ::handing over the ISD with her edited list:: Where is tr'Axon? Do na tell me he gained that promotion he spoke of last tour all ready. He promised me a game of stones the next time we docked.

Koga S'Bien -> Yes, we might as well. Let's go.

tAehjae -> :: turns past the officer and walks down the corridor::

Laehval tTemarr -> Station Quartermaster> ::Looks over tr'Pexil's ISD and then hands it to one of his lackeys. They make some notes before returning the ISD to Lerak.:: Of course, it is customary. I only needed to make sure you had proper documentation allowing you to resupply. I can't do anything without the proper documentation, especially now.

 

Laehval tTemarr -> ::One of the lackeys looked at t'Ksa in surprise as she mentioned tr'Axon and seemed as though she would say something, but a sharp look from the Quartermaster made her bite her lip.::

Lerak trPexil -> Especially now? Have Klingons raided the cargo bays?

Laehval tTemarr -> @ ::As t'Aehjae and Koga get closer to the young Rihan woman, she slips away into the corridor and heads further into the station. They catch a glimpse of her at the next junction, peering around the corner at them.::

Lerak trPexil -> :: Looks at the changes to his ISD ::

Koga S'Bien -> @ Curious. I wonder if she's a reporter ?

Laehval tTemarr -> Station Quartermaster> tr'Axon is not on duty today. ::He replied gruffly. His dark eyes turned to Lerak.:: Do na be daft. The Klingons could never get close. Now, what is it that you need. Do you have a resupply order? ::Holds out his hand.::

tAehjae -> ::nods:: Koga Au see that oi? She is staying just out of range of us. Look she pearing around the corner a few corridors down.

M_K_tKsa -> ::pouting, muttering just loud enough to be barely heard and as if she's no paying attention to the conversation:: Fvadt. I was looking forward to a decent game of stones.

 

Koga S'Bien -> Yes. She probably is a reporter... or a Tal'Shiar operative?

Lerak trPexil -> I would play au.

tAehjae -> Shall we try to find out?

Koga S'Bien -> Sure. Let's be discrete about it though.

Koga S'Bien -> Don't want to scare her off.

Lerak trPexil -> :: to the QM :: I hope au have all of these items here.

tAehjae -> I’ll walk past au remain behind, when she looks out to see where au are grab her push her back in the corridor and I will join au, be sure to na allow her to yell.

tAehjae -> Au ready?

 

M_K_tKsa -> ::gives him a look, decides to bicker with him to pretend this whole situation is na bothering her:: Ffffft. ::scoffs:: Na. I've seen au play. Half au's pieces barely hit the target last time. ::glances at the Quartermaster:: How long will it take for me to get those supplies ::points to the medical list::

Lerak trPexil -> That was io game... give a poor Rihan a break. :: awaits there answer ::

tAehjae -> :: starts to walk towards the officer watching but na watching what she’s doing::

M_K_tKsa -> I should hope that was only io bad game. If au played like that on a regular basis au pockets would be picked clean.

Koga S'Bien -> ::slowly walks along as well, looking around in different directions::

Laehval tTemarr -> Station Quartermaster> There has been a shortage of some items lately and medical supplies, especially, are quite in demand. ::He turned an ear to one of his lackeys who whispered something. He nodded and straightened. It will be at least half an hour before most of this can be ready. Au are welcome to wait, if au like.

Lerak trPexil -> We will wait.

tAehjae -> :: motions for Koga to stop just before the corridor and await the Rhian officer to pear back out after shes passes::

Koga S'Bien -> ::Stops::

 

tAehjae -> :: continues to walk past the corridor where the Rhian had been standing::

Laehval tTemarr -> @ ::The female Rihan retreated further down the corridor as t'Aehjae approached and stood at another junction, peering out from behind the corner.::

M_K_tKsa -> ::rolls her eyes, keeping up with the bickering:: (m) Great, I'm stuck with him now. ::leans against the nearest crate as if she's put out by the wait::

Lerak trPexil -> +Koga+ The items will take around one-half hour to arrive, we are waiting near the quartermaster office

Koga S'Bien -> +Pexil+ Okay, understood. Thank you.

tAehjae -> ::: stops after she passes the corridor and backs up against the wall motioning for Koga to do the same and wait to see if the officer returns to see where they have gone::

 

Koga S'Bien -> ::does the same::

M_K_tKsa -> ::does a lazy scan over the assembled lackeys with the Quartermaster, na linger on any io to hide her interest in the io who seemed to show some flicker of recognition about tr'Axon's name::

Lerak trPexil -> Au could do a LOT worse. I may na be as handsome as Koga or tough like t'Aehjae, or in power like t'Temarr.... Ah I see your point.

M_K_tKsa -> Au hit '

M_K_tKsa -> Au hit S'Bien in the head with the stone last time. And I don't honestly know what to do with au.

Laehval tTemarr -> Station Quartermaster> ::Waves a hand and his lackeys scatter to fill Talon's order. The quartermaster disappeared into his office.::

M_K_tKsa -> ::hoping that tr'Pexil understands she's na really trying to hurt his feelings but play-acting as none of this is troubling::

Lerak trPexil -> I'm sure au could find something. There's a shortage of engineers all of the sudden.

Laehval tTemarr -> @ ::With S'Bien and t'Aehjae out of sight, the woman returned down the corridor to the last junction and peeked out around the corner, looking for them.:: Lerak trPexil -> I'm thinking the repairs will take additional time.

Koga S'Bien -> ::Looks at his chrono::

Lerak trPexil -> :: taps his ISD with vigor :

:

M_K_tKsa -> ::mutters, turning her back to tr'Pexil as if she's mad at him or annoyed with his presence as they wait:: And I think au's next exam might a bit more thorough

Lerak trPexil -> Oh the probe? My hearing is just fine. That procedure should not take one hour.

tAehjae -> @:: is seen by the Rhian as she looks around the corner:: Looking for Me?

Lerak trPexil -> :: turns his back ::

Koga S'Bien -> ::heads back down the corridor as well:: J

Lerak trPexil -> I don't know if I fell asleep or au drugged me.

Laehval tTemarr -> ::With the quartermaster out of sight, one of the suppliers returns with an ISD. It was the girl that had balked at tr'Axon's name. She offered t'Ksa an ISD, murmuring softly. We don't have some of your items. Could you offer a substitute?

Lerak trPexil -> :: Turns to see the woman out of the corner of his eye ::

Laehval tTemarr -> @ ::The young woman jerked at finding t'Aehjae so close, let out a squeal, and turned to run.::

Lerak trPexil -> :: Watch a couple of meters away ::

Koga S'Bien -> ::Blocks her path::

 

tAehjae -> @:: follows right after her as Koga is there to meet her::

M_K_tKsa -> ::taking the ISD and lingering as she reads it:: Let's see....let's see. :: under her breath:: tr'Axon would know what I need. :: deciding to invoke the name again gently to see what kind of response she gets::

tAehjae -> Move further down the corridor :: hand on Disruptor:: Na screaming

tAehjae -> ::to the Female Rhian officer::

Koga S'Bien -> ::runs ahead of t'A, lets her take the lead on this one::

Lerak trPexil -> :: Just thought he'd not know anyone on this station, though he should ::

Laehval tTemarr -> @ ::Looks between Koga and t'Aehjae, suddenly scared. She swallowed and looked behind them as if expecting to be followed, but did as t'Aehjae had asked.::

 

Koga S'Bien -> ::Looks around for anyone else::

tAehjae -> :: after they get a bit further down the corridor, she reaches up taking her by the shoulder to turn her around:: Why are au watching us so closely? ::to the Female Rhian::

Laehval tTemarr -> ::The woman swallowed at the mention of tr'Axon and glanced toward the quartermaster's office. Leaning closer, she whispered.:: tr'Axon was taken from the station two weeks ago.

Lerak trPexil -> :: Moves closer to t'Ksa ::

Laehval tTemarr -> (( Two minute warning. ))

 

M_K_tKsa -> ::an eyebrow raised, used the ISD to hide her mouth as she randomly touches the screen to look like she's working:: (q)Why? ::a bit worried, she liked the man::

Lerak trPexil -> :: Hearing good, but not that good, waiting to see if t'Ksa relays the intel ::

Laehval tTemarr -> @ ::She waved a hand at t'Aehjae.:: Because you should na be here! ::She hissed and looked warningly at the corridor, shrinking back as a group of officers passed.::

tAehjae -> What do ah mean we should na be here?

tAehjae -> :: after the officers passed by::Laehval tTemarr -> Supplier> Because someone said he was an Othan spy. ::She looked worried.:: I think they might have killed him.

Lerak trPexil -> :: Looking around, still uneasy ::

Laehval tTemarr -> @ This place is dangerous. People have been going missing. Ships dock and crews mysteriously disappear.

M_K_tKsa -> Get me three of these then. And....:: still messing with the ISD, scrunches up her face as if she's trying to decide on another substitute:: (q)Na possible. He was na spy....he couldn't be. He was...::na finding a word to describe how she felt about the man::

tAehjae -> Disappear?? ::looks to Koga::

Laehval tTemarr -> (( And... ))

M_K_tKsa -> ((oooh the intrigue))

RES Talon Mission Briefing 51411.13 - Season 19 - The Talon crew has been exploring the Galae Orbital Station and has made some interesting discoveries. Beneath the surface of a polished Imperial façade, an unknown danger lurks. In that regard, the away team has made two recent discoveries. One team has learned that whispers of Othan spies within the ranks have caused at least one station officer to be forcibly removed and possibly executed, though he was known to be a loyal supporter of Galae command. The others have been warned that the station is no longer safe. As it is impossible to tell if the Talon is being fed misinformation or has truly become mired in a political upheaval that teeters on civil war, who are they to trust?

 

We'll pick up where we left off last week. t'Ksa and Lerak were wheeling information out of a shy supply officer. Koga and t'Aehjae had cornered a lurker that had been watching them. Evie, you are welcome to join either group.

tAehjae -> @ :: to the Lurker:: Why have au been watching us? :: said with her hand on her weapon::

Lerak trPexil -> :: Has a bad feeling about this, waiting and watching ::

M_K_tKsa -> ::still trying to puzzle together why anyone would think that tr'Avox would be a spy, glances at tr'Pexil to see what he's doing before returning back to ISD list the supply officer has her consulting::

Koga S'Bien -> @ ::keeps an eye on the lurker and the general surroundings in case she has friends nearby, letting t'A do the interrogating::

Laehval tTemarr -> @ Rihan female> ::Nervously looking about.:: Because au just came aboard, but did na dock your ship. I was hoping to sneak aboard your RAC when au left.

 

Lerak trPexil -> :: Closer to t'Ksa :: (w) Who was tr'Avox and is there anything with that ISD to know?

Laehval tTemarr -> Supply officer> ::She threw a glance at the quartermaster's office.::

M_K_tKsa -> Etre tr'Pexil, au need to stop breathing down my neck. Why don't au go over there ::scowls, waves across the room:: and look at the engineering toys. ::hoping he'll get the hint to go take a look around, hopefully within her own view::

M_K_tKsa -> And this io here. Au do na have any of these in stock? ::mutters then:: How long ago was this that he was removed?

M_K_tKsa -> ::wonders if tr'Pexil will be able to see anything useful there::

Lerak trPexil -> :: Nods, then walks as though inspecting ::

Koga S'Bien -> @Hmm.

 

Lerak trPexil -> :: looks back :: Au...Au are nearly impossible to work with. Thank the elements we are different departments and different decks... :: Goes to read some wall plate ::

Laehval tTemarr -> Supply officer> ::She tilted her head to peer at the ISD and pointed as if showing Ksa something.:: They came for him only a few weeks ago when the trouble on the homeworld began.

Lerak trPexil -> :: Gets out his ISD again, scans for an open network port ::

Lerak trPexil -> :: Scanning and waiting.. waiting to scan.. Wondering what Laehval is up to...

::

ACTION> Lerak's scan picks up the active GOS network, but it is encrypted with several layers of security. Security he could probably crack if he wanted.

 

M_K_tKsa -> ::scratches the top of her head as of trying to figure out what to use as a substitute:: <q>Communications were cut off as we were coming into range. What sort of trouble has been going on? ::makes a face like she's na happy with her selection::

Lerak trPexil -> :: Thinks: I am not awake enough for this... ::

Lerak trPexil -> :: Started his login protocols ::

EvietMahren -> ::with Morgana and tr'Pexil, hovering off to the side, listening to the conversation with the supply assistant while pretending to be looking around::

Laehval tTemarr -> Supply officer> ::Murmuring still.:: Ah... very strange things. High-ranking officers, both Galae and Othan, disappearing from their posts, falling ill, dying in "accidents". Then Galae took control of the station and started routing anyone they suspected to be a spy. ::Her voice wavered.::

Lerak trPexil -> :: Hitting some outer space blocks in getting in ::

Lerak trPexil -> :: Sighs heavily ::

 

Laehval tTemarr -> @ Rihan woman> Take me with au! Please! ::Her eyes grew wide as she glanced down the hallway and saw an officer headed in their direction.::

Laehval tTemarr -> (( Pex, give me a number from 1 - 100 ))

Koga S'Bien -> @ ::Looks at what she's looking at::

Laehval tTemarr -> @ Rihan woman> We should na be talking here. ::She rushed Koga, trying to slip past him.::

M_K_tKsa -> (q)That man was never a spy. He was loyal to the Galae. Something else is going on. ::sighs:: Is there anyone else I should talk to? ::trying to look for a way to get more information and yet allow the woman to return to her duties without raising any more alarms::

Koga S'Bien -> @Whoa there... ::Steps in her path again, trying to stop her::

Lerak trPexil -> ((48)

 

Koga S'Bien -> @::looks to t'Aehjae:: But I agree. We should get moving again.

EvietMahren -> ::moves to a nearby access panel, pretending to idly pull up the basic screens -- local time, uniform of the day notices, etc.::

Laehval tTemarr -> @ Rihan woman> ::Runs into Koga, but was too slight to move him much.::

M_K_tKsa -> ((I like how you desribed her...slight :D ))

Koga S'Bien -> (lol)

 

Lerak trPexil -> :: While it looked like he was viewing his profile on ch'Rihan'ilhæl ::

Lerak trPexil -> :: He was actually trying to break through... some of his own people's networks ::

EvietMahren -> ::noticing a few blips in the feed... requiring some analysis once she gets back to the ship::

Lerak trPexil -> :: Any news from the homeworld would be welcome.. a large burst of data ::

Laehval tTemarr -> Supply officer> There is io man that might be able to give au more answers... ::She seemed even more nervous.::

Lerak trPexil -> :: Pex looked up ::

M_K_tKsa -> ::scrolls through the ISD a little bit:: (q)Who?

 

ACTION> Pexil manages to crack the first layer of security and runs into another obstacle. It looked like a scrambled passcode: Ale Runway Moth

 

Laehval tTemarr -> @ Officer> ::Approaching Koga, t'Aehjae, and the unnamed woman, he frowned at the trio.:: What are au all doing lurking here?

Lerak trPexil -> :: Scratches his head ::

Koga S'Bien -> @ Sorry, we'll be moving along. We must have taken a wrong turn.

Koga S'Bien -> @ ::starts getting the trio moving to another place::

Laehval tTemarr -> Quartermaster> ::Just then, the Quartermaster stepped out of his office and focused on Morgana and Evie. He narrowed his eyes, seeing the supply officer still lurking about.:: Should au na be filling their order?! ::He growled.::

Laehval tTemarr -> Supply officer> ::She ducked her head and threw t'Ksa an apologetic look.:: Ah, yes... the maenak was just making her final selections on the items we need to sub.

 

Lerak trPexil -> :: Having his ISD take a crunch at it ::

M_K_tKsa -> ::rolls her eyes, hands the ISD back to the suply officer:: I think this substitutions will have to do. If you have any other questions, just let me know.

Lerak trPexil -> :: Taps : A Male Unworthy...[enter] ::

Lerak trPexil -> :: With over 77000 combinations it could take a while ::

EvietMahren -> ::frowning, as she looks at the weather report from homeworld:: I will have to remember to wear my raingear when we finally arrive home. It seems a storm has settled just over my home. ::shakes her head, closing down the interface::

Lerak trPexil -> :: Taps: Manual Ye Throw [enter]

M_K_tKsa -> I hate figuring out substitutions. It's like trying to predict the what craziness the crew will get into with a magic number ball.

Lerak trPexil -> :: Taps: Narwhal Toe Yum [enter] ::

EvietMahren -> ::snorts:: And with our crew, the crazy tends to be off the bloody charts.

EvietMahren -> ::rueful grin::

 

Laehval tTemarr -> @ Officer> ::He frowneddeeper as he caught sight of the woman and grabbed her by the arm.:: Na au.. Au are coming with me.

Lerak trPexil -> :: Taps: Oatmeal Why Run [enter]

M_K_tKsa -> ::gives Evie her best "I'm not amused look" in keeping with the sour-pickle maenak act, shifts in the waiting chair as if uncomfortable:: Elements, did they change the seats here too? I swear this io is almost more uncomfortable than....well....it's fvadt uncomfortable.

Laehval tTemarr -> Supply officer> ::She took the ISD and nodded at Ksa's selections, tapping in a few notes.:: Thank au, Daise'Maenak. Here is the finalized list of your requisitions. They will be delivered to your ship within the hour. ::She handed the ISD back to Morgana and then slipped away to get back to work.::

 

ACTION> Among the various supplies listed on the ISD, a name was buried somewhere in the middle. It read simply: tr'Valdrin.

 

Laehval tTemarr -> (( Two minute warning ))

M_K_tKsa -> Hanny'yo ::calling after her, then glances at the ISD to verify her order...does her best na to react when she finds the name on the list before clearing the screen::

Laehval tTemarr -> Lerak Action> Access denied. Access denied. Access denied.

EvietMahren -> ::shrugs a shoulder, as if Morgana not being amused isn't anything new::

EvietMahren -> ::... which, in retrospect, really isn't, she supposes::

M_K_tKsa -> ::sighs, watching tr'Pexil from across the room:: I'm never going to get him to finish repairs if he continues to muck about the new engineering toys, am I?

EvietMahren -> ::shaking her head:: Likely not. Though the engineering toys might speed things along... if he could ever figure out how they work.

Laehval tTemarr -> (( Last chance to say it... ))

Lerak trPexil -> :: Taps: The Romulan Way [enters]

tAehjae -> :: turns to Koga:: I wonder why she wanted to escape to the Talon, Maybe we should try to follow to see where they are taking Her.

Lerak trPexil -> :: taps: Whale Mayo Turn [enters]

Koga S'Bien -> You could ask her?

Koga S'Bien -> She wants to come with us..

M_K_tKsa -> I'll need to talk to a man about an upgrade to the biobeds later. Do au think it could be this tedoius?

 

ACTION> Success! Lerak cracks another layer of security and gets an eyeful of the station's daily duty logs. Other files were further protected. Whale Mayo Turn kicks him out again, however.

 

Lerak trPexil -> Ie! :: as loud as he can causing everyone to go silent ::

EvietMahren -> Given the state of affairs? It could be *deadly* boring. ::lips pursed::

Laehval tTemarr -> @ Officer> She doesn't have a choice. Move along. ::He turns back down the corridor, dragging the woman with him.::

Laehval tTemarr -> (( And... ))

tAehjae -> which way did they take her?

Lerak trPexil -> Na na na... :: Enters: the Romulan Way ::

M_K_tKsa -> What's what I was afraid of.

 

END SIM

tAehjae -> ::paused::

Koga S'Bien -> ::Paused::

Lerak trPexil -> DIS MIN

Laehval tTemarr -> Sorry to keep you late. Nice sim! Hope you got something out of it and learned a bit more about the state of affairs.

M_K_tKsa -> Something's afoot

Koga S'Bien -> Our lurker is with us as well, yes?

Laehval tTemarr -> A shoe.

Lerak trPexil -> I'm Verb Chuck Thinner with the Rihan News Network

Laehval tTemarr -> The officer is currently hauling way your lurker, Koga, but they are still in the corridor with you.

Koga S'Bien -> ah,ok

Laehval tTemarr -> And Lerak just learned The Romulan Way.

M_K_tKsa -> ROFL

Laehval tTemarr -> Alright, everyone have a good night. We'll pick up here next week. Have a good weekend!
