**Manticore Brief for Stardate 52004.13**

After the rescue of the Captain and First Officer the Manticore set course for New Las Vegas for some much urgent shore leave.
The Captain's ordeal strained him psychologically as well as physically, requiring an extended stay.
The freed prisoners need offloaded and additional long-term medical care. Add that Starfleet has yet to respond to the fallout over the Mork incident, the crew of the Manticore may be on New Las Vegas for some time.

Kansas Kenickie: I would like to thank Erich for helping me out last week.
Kansas Kenickie: FYI? New Las Vagus is like the city.... just planet size 
Kansas Kenickie: Any questions before we start?

Erich Jaenke: Helm, drop us out of warp...
Cmdr JFarrington: Dropping from warp.  ::puts on the brakes:::
Annika Sorenson: ::on the bridge, manning the science console::
Erich Jaenke: :: it had been hours on the bridge, frankly he forgot to leave, but had nowhere to go. ::
Kansas Kenickie: :::Pacing in sickbay:::
Callista Tyrel: :: In Engineering at the moment ::
BrenFaliver: ::In Science, in the main island/console across from the CSCI office::
Gila Orrak: :: in sickbay :: Commander, we should be there soon. :: scanning KK ::
Erich Jaenke: Contact the NLV control and get us a parking orbit.
Cmdr JFarrington: Aye, Commander. Contacting control....
Kansas Kenickie: ::Pushes the scanner away from herself:: I am Fine
Gila Orrak: :: Checks her hypo spray :: I now have to inoculate you against local bugs. Hold still.
Annika Sorenson: ::cursory checks her terminal::
Kansas Kenickie: Take care of McFly... I am FINE
Cmdr JFarrington: +NLV+ NLV Control, USS Manticore NCC 5852 A requesting orbital park.
Callista Tyrel: :: securing Engineering for Orbit ::
Erich Jaenke: What is the status of our guests, especially the Aquatic? :: In all this time he did not get her name ::
Erich Jaenke: :: Erich looked worn out and down, the time on the bridge not common for him. Moving around, checking systems at all hours was more his normal. ::
Annika Sorenson: The Aquatic? She's in good health, physically anyway. From what I was told we may be transferring our guests to another ship who will take them to their home worlds.
Cmdr JFarrington: NLV Control> USS Manticore, you are cleared for orbital docking at 17-b - watch out for others orbit above and below. How copy?
Cmdr JFarrington: :::sigh::: +Control+ Copy, NLV Control. We won't scrape anyone. ::we're bigger and faster anyway:::
Erich Jaenke: I think they may find time on the planet beneficial. Contact the local authorities for one place they can stay. I don't want them separated.
Callista Tyrel: :: finishes some PADD work...looking at the Matter Anti Matter Reactor ( Primary ) for a final check ::
Gila Orrak: :: Hypos the Commander anyway :: Anyone going down is getting this. :: hypos herself ::
Erich Jaenke: :: Sees the class M planet appearing on the main viewer as they establish an orbit ::
Cmdr JFarrington: ::wonders if she could go down or stay put:::
Gila Orrak: :: Moves over to McFly :: For you. :: hiss ::
Gila Orrak: If this could change you all into Cardassians we'd have a good old time down there, but alas..
Annika Sorenson: ::Watches the view screen as well::
Kansas Kenickie: I am staying here!! Why would I leave him?
Cmdr JFarrington: ::um... stay put sounds good. She'll have lots of privacy and no jerks trying to mess with her:::
Gila Orrak: You are both going down, unless you wish to remain on the ship.
Cmdr JFarrington: Orbit established. Going to stationkeeping.
Erich Jaenke: Oh, I need out of this chair. This is not my style.
Annika Sorenson: I'd best check on our guests in the cargo bay one more time.
Kansas Kenickie: we are stasytin
Kansas Kenickie: staying here, he is not well.
Erich Jaenke: :: He bent out of the captain's chair as an old man would out of his favorite recliner. His spine cracked as he flexed backward at his hips ::
Cmdr JFarrington: ::turns at the crack:::blink:::
Callista Tyrel: + Bridge + Engineering to Bridge.. Everything set here for Orbit. I have completed a maximum diagnostic on our Transporter Systems. They are ready for use.
Gila Orrak: Will you at least stay in the recovery room. All the medical machines, but the look of one of our finest suites?
Erich Jaenke: +Eng+ Understood. We are attempting to find one place to transport the former prisoners. I am sure they would appreciate an open space.
Kansas Kenickie: I am staying here.
Kansas Kenickie: :::Crosses her arms:: you may go on leave.
Gila Orrak: Captain and Commanders are the worst patients. Very well.
Gila Orrak: Oh I plan to, having only heard legends of this planet.
Annika Sorenson: ::arrives back in the cargo bay to check on the Aquatic and other guests, but mostly the Aquatic:: Hopefully, we'll get you a ride to take you back home here.
Erich Jaenke: If you think that was loud Farrington, you should hear what I can hear in my mind.
Annika Sorenson: We should. based on what I heard.
BrenFaliver: ::Runs down the hall to the Transporter Room in a t-shirt and swim trunks::
Cmdr JFarrington: :::snarkle::: Sorry, sir.
Erich Jaenke: With that, have we secured one place where we, along with the guests, may stay?
Erich Jaenke: Chie... :: stops, not seeing the Chief Science officer ::
Cmdr JFarrington: ::securing helm, checking all systems:::
Erich Jaenke: Also, send a message to the crew that the first batch of personel may transport down.
Gila Orrak: :: Gives KK something that could be put in a pocket :: Press this and it will contact me if something goes wrong. It should keep a lock on me and me alone.
Gila Orrak: Remember, the physical wounds will heal well enough, the emotional ones will take some time.
Callista Tyrel: :: remains at Engineering to make certain the Aquatic, Xindi and other rescued individuals are transported down safely ::
Erich Jaenke: :: His padd chirps, notifying him of a single place they get to stay, the Grand Royale Premium Deluxe Limited Edition Hotel, right on the strip..well one of the thousands of strips ::
Erich Jaenke: Seems we are staying at some... long-named hotel.
Annika Sorenson: ::assists with transport from the cargo bay. co-ordinating for the safe transport down to the surface::
Erich Jaenke: Ready Commander Farrington?
Cmdr JFarrington: Sir?
Cmdr JFarrington: Ready for....?
Erich Jaenke: Are you not going down, or are you on a different shift for shore leave?
Callista Tyrel: + Lt Sorenson + Tyrel here...let me know if you have any questions about transporting our rescued guests. Everything should go smoothly... At least from this end.
Gila Orrak: :: Places her hand on the Commander's shoulder briefly :: I'll be in touch. :: begins to head out ::
Cmdr JFarrington: I'll be here, sir. Not going down at all. Have a few things I need to finish up. Plus, I don't trust the ships in this orbit.
BrenFaliver: ::reaches the transporter room, having somehow acquired water wings which are firmly wedged onto his upper arms::
Kansas Kenickie: thank you Doc.
Erich Jaenke: Alright. I may very well regret it if my medicine fails and I hear thousands of voices in my head at once.
Cmdr JFarrington: ::slight grin:: I'll stay aboard and.... ::wants to say she'd give 'em a fight for their money::... well, sir, just keep things not moving.
Gila Orrak: It's what I do, most of the time.
Gila Orrak: :: door closes behind her ::
Callista Tyrel: :: hopes the heck....wherever they are sending these poor souls..they will be safe ::
Cmdr JFarrington: ::Erich::: Well, sir. Let me know and I'll take it down to you.
Erich Jaenke: I am only worried if I go too long. I am going to visit the aquatic.
Annika Sorenson: +Callista+. Sure, will do. I'm coordinating from the cargo bay, I was told that they are ready to receive our guests at... whenever we're ready.
Erich Jaenke: :: Exits the bridge :: Deck the Aquatic is on. :: Lift starts to move ::
Erich Jaenke: (( time goes by.. )) :: Enters the location of the Aquatic tank ::
Callista Tyrel: + Annika + Thanks...and...hopefully we can get some time on the surface to explore..and...decompress a bit.. I
Gila Orrak: :: She stops by her quarters and gets her pre-packed bag ::
Annika Sorenson: +Callista+ I hope so as well.
Erich Jaenke: :: Approaches the tank :: So, you are the one that entered my mind...
Cmdr JFarrington: :::Kansas::: Ma'am, if there's anything you need help with, I'll be here.
Kansas Kenickie: Thank you Jami.... it means a lot.
Callista Tyrel: :: walks over and finishes up another PADD handing it over to the duty officer ::
Erich Jaenke: :: Places his hand on the tank ::
Kansas Kenickie: :::Grabs some coffee:::
Gila Orrak: :: walking the corridors with her pack slung on her back ::
Erich Jaenke: :: Hears her name in his mind :: That's pretty long.
Erich Jaenke: :: Thinks of Keb, who seemed particularly struck by the events of this last mission ::
Kansas Kenickie: ::Takes a seat next to matt::
Erich Jaenke: :: Gets his to go bag, looks for the Doctor, then bumps into her :: Oof!
Cmdr JFarrington: ::wandering down the deck toward her quarters:::
Callista Tyrel: :: taps panels and executes a program labeled...Garnoopy 1 diagnostic ::
Gila Orrak: :: Really runs into him, pressing against him for an uncomfortably long moment :: Commander... My apologies.
Annika Sorenson: ::talks with the techs on the surface, the tank for the aquatic seems to be in good order, glad they had advanced notice to cobble one together over the past few days::
Erich Jaenke: I was looking for you, but this is not what I meant.
Gila Orrak: Oh I can think of worse run-ins.
Erich Jaenke: :: blushes :: In our line of work yes. I was getting...
Cmdr JFarrington: ::up the lift to the officers' quarters, steps out on that level, and continues on:::
Gila Orrak: Your dose... :: pulls out a hypo ::
Erich Jaenke: You carry that with you?
Gila Orrak: Right next to the undetectable knife yes. :: Presses the cold hypospray tip into his neck ::
Erich Jaenke: Oh, so cold.
Gila Orrak: I've been told that.
Erich Jaenke: :: They walk together towards the transport pads ::
Kansas Kenickie: ::Empties the coffee cup and ads whiskey to the mug::
Erich Jaenke: :: Holds up a hand :: +Tyrel+ Is the engineering department secure?
Callista Tyrel: :: walks over to the "Pool Table" and takes a look ::
Callista Tyrel: + Jaenke + Yes , the ship is ready for a stay in orbit. I was just remaining here in case any issues cropped up with our guests’ transport.
Amanda Davis PhD: :::stepping out of her office and moving to the sickbay lounge, not exactly expecting the smell of whisky::::
Callista Tyrel: ( ruh roh )
Amanda Davis PhD: ::putting her things aside, she fills her mug while saying::: Hello, Commander.
BrenFaliver: ((Dramatic music))
Kansas Kenickie: +Erich+ Can you keep an eye on our people while you are on the planet.... I am going to stay on ship with the captain.
Erich Jaenke: +Kenickie+ Are you sure. I can even keep my mind on them.
Kansas Kenickie: +Erich+ just an eye... I don't want to make you uncomfortable with using your gifts.
Amanda Davis PhD: :::settles into a chair in the physicians' lounge:::
Erich Jaenke: +Kenickie+ Aye Commander.
Kansas Kenickie: Yes Davis..
Erich Jaenke: +Tyrel+ Once they are down get yourself down. Spend time with Sorensen. I think you two are similar and would get along.
Kansas Kenickie: You are free to go on shore leave...
Callista Tyrel: + Jaenke + Copy...Buddy Buddy system..sure thing! :: smiles ::
Amanda Davis PhD: ::Pats a chair::: Please. Have a seat and relax.
Kansas Kenickie: :::Takes a seat::: yes?
Amanda Davis PhD: Oh, I know that, Commander. I have too much to do to go ashore.
Erich Jaenke: :: Talks to Orrak for their walk ::
Kansas Kenickie: ::Sips her drink::: how can I help you
Annika Sorenson: +Cargo Techs+. Yeah, okay sounds good. Whenever you guys are ready.
Callista Tyrel: :: would like to find an establishment that serves Kanar ::
Gila Orrak: These things happen Chief. People grow apart.
Amanda Davis PhD: ::is a counselor and she does what counselors do:: Just sit and relax.
Erich Jaenke: Yeah... yeah. I know. Life and all.
Kansas Kenickie: ::Sicks back:: I am relaxed.
Erich Jaenke: :: enters the transporter room ::
Amanda Davis PhD: :::since there is no one else around::: Your husband is healing very well.
Erich Jaenke: We can go down together and make sure things are settled on the planetside end.
Cmdr JFarrington: ::::entering her quarters she settles in to write home:::
Gila Orrak: Oh, sounds very romantic Chief.
Gila Orrak: :: brightens :: You do know something of Cardassians..
Kansas Kenickie: We aren't married... we are just together.
Amanda Davis PhD: Oh. My apologies.
Amanda Davis PhD: But you are very concerned, and you have good reason to be.  But he is healing more quickly than expected.
Erich Jaenke: Do you wish me to start an argument with you, making an aggressive move against you to show my interest?
Kansas Kenickie: >>>Pause Sim <<<
Kansas Kenickie: >>>Pause Sim <<<
Kansas Kenickie: >>>Pause Sim <<<

Kansas Kenickie: nice game everyone!!
Cmdr JFarrington: had a good time
Kansas Kenickie: Any questions?
Callista Tyrel: TBS?
Kansas Kenickie: 12 minutes
Cmdr JFarrington: ::chuckle::
Callista Tyrel: Okay and will our guests have been ...transported to the surface successfully or is that next week's episode?
Annika Sorenson: I'd hope so
Kansas Kenickie: maybe.......
Kansas Kenickie: everyone is dismissed.
