William Chocox -> ::starts pacing the holding cell::

Cdr Miranda Hawthorne -> Tarian> ::Device in hand, waits for Hunter to present himself for the blood draw.::

Hunter Matheson -> ::dragged out to the vamp's place, wherever that is::

Hunter Matheson -> ::he stares at the blood draw; he hates needles::

Cdr Miranda Hawthorne -> Tarian> ::Presses the device to Hunter's neck. He feels a momentary sting as the device collects. It only took a moment and the Al-Ucard withdrew, peering at the results.:: That seems... odd.

Hunter Matheson -> ::not gonna faint, no he's not::

Maryse Dubois -> ::Leaning on a wall of the hold.::

Hunter Matheson -> ::slumps to the floor::

Cptn Swain -> Ithene> ::Frowns::

Cptn Swain -> ACTION> The Med tech glances over to K'hal and activates the decon chamber a second time.

Cptn Swain -> (( K'Hall give me a number between 1-10 ))

Rhan K'hal -> ((3))

Rhan K'hal -> :: starts scrubbing the goo into his fur vigorously ::

Cdr Miranda Hawthorne -> Paviel> ::Still staring at Tandaris.:: How do you know that name?

Tandaris Admiran -> ::Paviel:: How do YOU know that name?

William Chocox -> (w)Perfect.

Cdr Miranda Hawthorne -> Paviel> ::She hissed at him.:: I asked you first.

Cptn Swain -> ACTION> The goo begins to have a slight burn, nothing painful but enough that K'Hal notices what's left of his fur begin to dissolve.

Cdr Miranda Hawthorne -> Tarian> ::Peers down at Hunter.:: Get into something we shouldn't have? The Scorpiad like to leave nasty things behind.

Tandaris Admiran -> ::frowns:: Got me there. Let's just say we go way back.

Rhan K'hal -> :: somehow manages to find some more words not fit for polite company that he hadn't used before ::

Cptn Swain -> MedTech> ::Nods at a read out::

Hunter Matheson -> ::blinks, looking up at the Vamp:: Yeah, they got some eggs, and I messed with one thinking it was going to help, but it didn't.

Hunter Matheson -> Funny thing about that.

Cptn Swain -> MedTech> ::K'Hal:: One moment.

Hunter Matheson -> It's, uh... ::he checks his hands, turning them over and over:: really gooey, yanno?

William Chocox -> ::keeps pacing::

Cdr Miranda Hawthorne -> Paviel> ::She couldn't keep the slight tinge of panic from her eyes. Backing away a few steps, she activated her communications device and hissed something urgently.::

Cptn Swain -> ACTION> A woosh of air sweeps over him and the goo goes away.

Rhan K'hal -> :: curls lip, not looking so placid anymore... not to mention furless and wrinkled

Maryse Dubois -> ::Smirks at Hunter's reply.::

Tandaris Admiran -> ::K'hal:: You actually look good that way … ::hopes he can lie with a straight face:: By the way, was Victria still around when you came aboard?

Rhan K'hal -> No, wrong K'hal. My brother was aboard when she was, though. According to his stories she was quite a piece of work.

Cptn Swain -> MedTech> ::Tips his head:: Much smaller without the fur.

Cdr Miranda Hawthorne -> Tarian> Their replicant devices are not to be trifled with unless you know how to operate them properly.

William Chocox -> We're aware.

Tandaris Admiran -> ::K'hal:: Yes, she was quite the formidable warrior. I was always happy to have her on my team.

Cptn Swain -> Ithene> ::Frowns::

Cdr Miranda Hawthorne -> Paviel> ::Approaches the MedTech with Rhan and puts a hand on his shoulder.:: We have been ordered to return these two to the holding cell. ::Jaw clenched, she glanced briefly to Tandaris.::

Tandaris Admiran -> But I haven't fixed your scanner yet!

Rhan K'hal -> And I would appreciate some damned clothes since you robbed me of my natural insulation.

Cptn Corizon -> MedTech> ::Nods, sensing Paviel's tension::

Cdr Miranda Hawthorne -> Tarian> ::Hearing his comm notification, he glanced down and frowned. His eyes snapped up to those in the holding cell.:: What vessel are you from?

Hunter Matheson -> ::listening, watching, seriously out of the loop::

Cptn Swain -> Ithene> The USS Excalibur. ::She had given up on hiding their mission after K'Hal had ran his mouth.::

William Chocox -> Uh...I believe it's called the Vauban?

William Chocox -> Oh, unless you mean that one.

Hunter Matheson -> ::his focus is bouncing around real good now, from K'hal to Ithene, to Cho, to Tan::

Cptn Swain -> (( Tandy and K'Hal are in a separate area, being brought back to us))

William Chocox -> ((Is that my new nickname? Cho instead of Boom-Boom?))

Tandaris Admiran -> ((Short for Chocobo?))

Maryse Dubois -> ::watching the interaction.::

Hunter Matheson -> (dunno. Cho is short and easy to type)

Hunter Matheson -> (::edits his last: :)

Cdr Miranda Hawthorne -> ( William, you can call him Hun. )

Hunter Matheson -> ::eraser, chalk, fix::

Rhan K'hal -> :: still waiting for some sort of covering, shivers a little, though still with a bit of a snarl ::

Cptn Corizon -> MedTech> ::Grabs a weapon and points it at K'Hal:: Walk.

Cdr Miranda Hawthorne -> Paviel> ::Throws Rhan a blanket. The guards return and hustle Rhan and Tandy out of medical and toward the turbolift.::

Tandaris Admiran -> ::limping under his own power, for the moment:: Well that worked.

Rhan K'hal -> :: wraps the blanket around self during the quick march ::

Tandaris Admiran -> Figured I would just run down the list of Al-Ucardians I know and hope one of them rang some bells.

Rhan K'hal -> :: grumbles something in the vein of needing old-fashioned pliers to make a necklace of out pointy teeth ::

Cdr Miranda Hawthorne -> Tarian> ::He hissed at Ithene's answer, clenching his jaw. One of the other Al-Ucards joined him and the two fell into a quiet, but heated conversation.::

William Chocox -> ((How many Al-Ucardians does he know?))

Tandaris Admiran -> ::almost as an afterthought:: Of course, it was a very short list.

Hunter Matheson -> (vein. heh.)

Cptn Corizon -> ACTION> The ship shakes suddenly, as if it were impacted by weapons fire.

Rhan K'hal -> :: stumble ::

Cptn Corizon -> Ithene> What the hell was that.

Hunter Matheson -> ::he grabs the deck, then looks around::

Tandaris Admiran -> Now, we just have to hope that these people think the world of Victria, and not the other—whoa. ::falls into Rhan:: Ow.

Tandaris Admiran -> ::Rhan:: You are much less cushiony now.

Cptn Swain -> Ithene> ::Catches herself against the wall of the holding chamber.::

Rhan K'hal -> :: growls :: And you're particularly bonier in ill health.

Cdr Miranda Hawthorne -> Paviel> ::Looks up suddenly and then snaps at the guards.:: Get them back to the holding cells! ::Sprints off in the opposite direction.::

William Chocox -> ::barely catches his balance:: (w)Still not used to this.

Maryse Dubois -> ::Backs into the wall.::

Cptn Corizon -> ACTION> Shake, shake, shake your starship. Another impact against the hull.

William Chocox -> ::falls:: (w)Damn.

Tandaris Admiran -> ::little giggle:: Oooh, we're under attaaaaack.

Cdr Miranda Hawthorne -> ACTION> Alerts start going off all over the Al-Ucardian vessel. In the holding cells, the lights go dark and then blink on slowly.

Hunter Matheson -> ::his head hits the wall and a string of expletives only a Marine can muster fly out of his mouth as he rubs the back of his head::

Maryse Dubois -> Seems like they drew some unwanted attention...

Hunter Matheson -> ::doc:: Yathink?

Cptn Swain -> Ithene> They're under attack. ::Takes a deep breath: (L) Everyone gird yourself. Hunter you're going to have to do your best.

Rhan K'hal -> :: uses his feline balancing skills to keep the pace high, pretty much dragging Tandaris along, and not caring if the guards keep up ::

Hunter Matheson -> ::sigh:: Right.

William Chocox -> I'm still getting used to this body.

Rhan K'hal -> :: sadly loses the blanket on the way though ::

Cptn Swain -> Ithene> Will, Doc... try to get Klien up on his feet. If the fields go down, we're making a run for the shuttle. ::She paused:: You are anyway. I am going to try and find Tandy and K'Hal.

Hunter Matheson -> ::he tears off one of the coverall straps and secures it around one hand, then searches for metal buttons, pulls them off, and sticks them in the crevices along his fist::

Cdr Miranda Hawthorne -> Tarian> ::Holding the wall as the ship shudders and yells at one of the other guards:: Release the cell field and lock on to the prisoners. Transport them into space along with their ship. We need to rid ourselves of the evidence.

William Chocox -> Aye ma'am.

Tandaris Admiran -> ((Uh, I think you meant "into space INSIDE their ship", right?))

Tandaris Admiran -> ((Right?))

Cdr Miranda Hawthorne -> (( Did he? Hmmm... ))

Cptn Corizon -> ACTION> The ship shudders again under a heavy impact. The lights flicker.

William Chocox -> ((Uh...who has peril cards?))

Hunter Matheson -> We're gonna lose power.

Hunter Matheson -> (I do)

Hunter Matheson -> (I got a get outta jail free)

Cptn Swain -> ((::opens xls file:: ))

Hunter Matheson -> (look under convo about killing characters ::smirk: :)

Cdr Miranda Hawthorne -> Guards> ::Pile into the lift with Tandy and Rhan and send it zooming toward the brig.::

Rhan K'hal -> :: sniffs :: Ah, nice to smell some fear coming from somebody ELSE for a change.

Cptn Swain -> Ithene> ::Nearly falls as the ship shudders again::

Tandaris Admiran -> I do hope that's the cavalry and not the Scorpiads….

Hunter Matheson -> ::hunting for anything that can be used as a weapon:: Anyone got a pen? Stylus? anything thin and sturdy?

Rhan K'hal -> Wouldn't that be nice?

Maryse Dubois -> ::Kneels by Klein, trying to prop him up.::

Cdr Miranda Hawthorne -> ACTION> The forcefields in the holding cells suddenly fail (or were cut). The Al-Ucardian guards rush to subdue the prisoners, but don't get the chance. They all fall in a hail of disruptor fire and bladed attacks. Tarian's head is suddenly separated from his body and goes rolling.

William Chocox -> Um...holy (expletive deleted)

Cptn Swain -> Ithene> ::Blinks::

Hunter Matheson -> ::watching:: Oops.

Maryse Dubois -> Um...::Watching the head roll.::

Hunter Matheson -> Think they got theirs.

Maryse Dubois -> ((Hiya Fangs. :P ))

Tandaris Admiran -> This is the galaxy's _slowest_ turbolift.

Tandaris Admiran -> ::mutters:: I could fix that for them too.

Cdr Miranda Hawthorne -> ( You're going to get stuck in it. )

Rhan K'hal -> I'd say your employment prospects with this group are pretty thin to be honest.

William Chocox -> Can I be your friend?

Hunter Matheson -> ::moves to the edge:: The fields are down. Where to?

Victria -> ::Victria stepped up to the cell, twin short-blades black with blood.:: Crew of the Excalibur? We are here to rescue you. ::She searched for friendly faces.:: You are going to have to fight your way free. Their dampening fields are still active, rendering our transporters useless.

Hunter Matheson -> ::steps out to check the perimeter::

Hunter Matheson -> Oh. Nice.

Maryse Dubois -> Maybe we should ask her. ::smiles.:: It's good to see you again Victria.

Cptn Swain -> Ithene> Lovely. I am Lt... you know what it's a long story. Get these guys to safety. I need to find Tandaris and K'Hal.

Hunter Matheson -> ::Victria:: Got any weapons?

Rhan K'hal -> Though I admit that it *is* awfully damn slow.

Tandaris Admiran -> Sadly, I think you're right.

William Chocox -> I need something simple to operate?

Cdr Miranda Hawthorne -> ACTION> The lift opens into the corridor to the brig. The hallway is littered with Al-Ucardian bodies, many of them missing heads.

Hunter Matheson -> ::in Ithene's face:: Safety? Hey! I'm a Marine!

Tandaris Admiran -> ::beat as the door opens:: Huh.

Rhan K'hal -> :: blinks at the view ::

Tandaris Admiran -> Suddenly the lift does not seem like such a bad place after all.

Rhan K'hal -> Someone's done some redecorating while we were gone.

Cptn Swain -> Ithene> You're also about three sheets from dying, now's not the time to argue.

Cptn Swain -> Ithene> ::Motions for them to follow Victria::

Hunter Matheson -> ::livid::

Maryse Dubois -> ::Gibbs smacks Hunter.:: A Marine that still needs medical attention.

Hunter Matheson -> ow

Victria -> ::She nodded to Maryse and then looked at the others.:: We do, and they are dangerous to our kind. ::She waved a hand and others brought them strange phasers.:: They fire in the ultraviolet spectrum. I ask that you be careful and not shoot those rescuing you.

Tandaris Admiran -> ::treading gingerly through the carnage::

Cptn Swain -> Ithene> ::Nods, taking the modified phaser:: UV modifications.

Rhan K'hal -> :: also picking his way around remains :: Pity, I wanted to do that one.

Hunter Matheson -> ::Maryse:: You're really enjoyin' that, aren't you?

Tandaris Admiran -> ((Are the guards still with us?))

William Chocox -> ::takes one and follows:: I take it you're a friend?

Maryse Dubois -> Do you people have something we can identify them as, so we don't mistake them for hostile? ::Smirks at Hunter.:: And Yes, I am.

Maryse Dubois -> *Do your

Cptn Corizon -> ACTION> The ship makes an incredibly tight turn, the inertial dampers clearly struggling under the strain, as another round of impacts smack it a midship.

Cdr Miranda Hawthorne -> ACTION> As Rhan & Tandy enter the brig, they find more of the same. Their guards are suddenly outnumbered as most of the Excalibur's crew has weaponry and a friendly Al-Ucardian escort.

Hunter Matheson -> Payback's a bitch, you know that, right?

Hunter Matheson -> Whoa...:::smacks right into the doc:::

Hunter Matheson -> ::Dinozzo smile as he looks her in the eyes::

Maryse Dubois -> ::Sees Tandy.:: We found a friend. ::Points to Victria.::

Tandaris Admiran -> Victria! Long time no see.

Cptn Swain -> Ithene> ::Catches herself again, but smiles as they see Tandy and Victria::

Maryse Dubois -> ::Then sees furless K'hal.:: Wow...

Tandaris Admiran -> ::coughs pathetically::

Hunter Matheson -> ::or not::

Cptn Swain -> Ithene> K'Hal, you have to give me your diet.

Rhan K'hal -> :: Maryse :: Assuming we live through this... I swear I have to put that at the start of every sentence... After you fix those two I'll need some hair growth stimulation.

Cptn Swain -> Ithene> ::Looks to Victria:: Our shuttle should be in their hold. I assume you know how to get there?

Victria -> ::She pointed at the red bands she and her guards wore around their arms.:: Do not shoot anyone wearing these. ::Her head swivels, flicking to Tandaris and Rhan and she grinned.:: Do I need to carry you, trill? I see you are still being eaten alive by that parasite.

Rhan K'hal -> :: makes a sour face at Ithene ::

Tandaris Admiran -> ::grins at Victria:: I missed you too.

William Chocox -> Right, no shooting the Red Arm banded people.

Tandaris Admiran -> ::wheeze:: I think I'll manage. For now.

Cptn Swain -> RedBand1> ::Hoists Klein over his shoulder:: We are ready.

Victria -> Kill the guards. ::She pointed at the two that had escorted Tandy and Rhan.::

William Chocox -> ::shoots::

Cdr Miranda Hawthorne -> ACTION> The Al-Ucardian that William shot fell back screaming as half of his face caught on fire from the phaser beam.

Cdr Miranda Hawthorne -> ( Dang, Will. That was cold. )

Rhan K'hal -> :: pokes quickly around the brig and finds something, rather pathetic garb but still better than nothing; slips into it ::

William Chocox -> Holy (expletive)! Did not expect that.

Cptn Swain -> Ithene> Good shooting. ::Shoots the other one.::

Victria -> Your vessel is in the main shuttle bay, along with our own, several levels down. They are bound to be guarded. Let's go.

Maryse Dubois -> Wait... ::Spots the device the guards had used to test their blood. Picks it up and examines it a moment.::

Cdr Miranda Hawthorne -> ACTION> The other guard had turned to run, but was caught by Ithene's blast. He fell with his chest smoldering.

Maryse Dubois -> ::Satisfied, she tosses it back to the ground and destroys it with her phaser.::

William Chocox -> Alright, let's go get our ship back.

Cptn Swain -> ...and...

Rhan K'hal -> :: takes one of the downed guards weapons, takes up a position toward the rear; figures their new allies can handle forward detection well enough, can use his ears to handle anything from behind ::

Victria -> ::She gave Tandy a smack on the shoulder as she passed, almost hard enough to knock him over, and led the way into the corridor.::
