The local forces close in on the team and some end up in a sticky wicket. 
In reality, their problems started years ago...

Annika Sorenson: ::probably in their room with Callista and Gila::
Kansas Kenickie: ACTION> ::: Lights blink then go back to "Normal" ::
Annika Sorenson: ::lucky not to part of that 'some'::
Callista Tyrel: Annika get what you can....a bag...look touristy...it is our only..cover at the moment....
Gila Orrak: :: Listening to the others ::
Annika Sorenson: ::Nods:: That's easy enough.
Cmdr JFarrington: :::since she's in her SF uniform, of course they grab her:::
Annika Sorenson: I didn't bring a whole lot of useful things.
Annika Sorenson: ::but takes what she can::
Callista Tyrel: Well we just need to look like tourists... Purses, handbags....maps...guides...
Cmdr JFarrington: ::and push her back inside::::
Gila Orrak: Can't that be on a data padd?
Cmdr JFarrington: ::and not very nicely, either, but she did restrain herself and not knock out some of their teeth::
Annika Sorenson: I'm glad we have a lot of those. ::takes sunscreen, her sunglasses, maps and guides and other stuff""
Callista Tyrel: Gila..got your sunglasses?
Callista Tyrel: :: hurries and gets her overly large sun hat...::
Gila Orrak: Well, we like tropical climates, so our eyes adjust to the sun on their own. :: shrugs ::
Callista Tyrel: Okay...I will take the sun glasses...hehe...I forgot how much a good sun is like.
Annika Sorenson: That is useful
Annika Sorenson: At least you grew knowing that feeling. Not too much sun in Europa, I'm afraid ::smiles::
Kansas Kenickie: McRoy> OVER THE P.A. SYSTEM:: Please remain calm...... the small power drop is over ::Lies::
Callista Tyrel: :: listens to the voice over the hotel room emergency speaker :: Okay. That was an outright lie...and a bad one. Gathers her stuff...I still wish I knew what happened to Erich.
Annika Sorenson: I wish I knew too.
Kansas Kenickie: :::Moves as close as she can to the FF holding her, trying to find/see something::
Annika Sorenson: Yeah, pretty standard. I doubt much people fell for that, even real tourists
Annika Sorenson: ::lathers on some sunscreen all over her body::
Callista Tyrel: I am still wondering how it managed to blast the Chief's PADD that was.....for that to happen, a EMP got through the alkatrite shielding... that is no easy task..
Callista Tyrel: Can I have some of that when you are though?
Kansas Kenickie: ::Stomps her foot.....::: damnit McFly
Annika Sorenson: Yeah, here you go ::hands it over to Callista:: Do Cardassians need sun tan lotion? ::to Gila::
Gila Orrak: Yeah, we are not invincible.
Annika Sorenson: I don't know to be honest. Wish I knew more about that sort of thing.
Kansas Kenickie: ACTION> THE LIGHTS IN THE BRIG GO OUT AND THE FORCE FIELD DROPS.
Callista Tyrel: Gila...can you look at the map and find a destination..where we can walk to .....sort of another locale, a cover story of our move?
Callista Tyrel: :: starts applying sunscreen in a hurry ::
Kansas Kenickie: :::Backs up and feels a sharps shock throughout her whole body and drops to the floor out-for the count:::
Gila Orrak: :: flips the paper map around :: This is... :: flips :: confusing
Cmdr JFarrington: ::runs her hands through her hair and down the back of her neck::: (m) Dammit I'm a doctor, not a... ::she looks up at the officer staring down at her:::
Kansas Kenickie: ACTION> FORCE FIELD IN THE BRIG GOES BACK UP AND THE LIGHTS RETURN TO NORMAL
Callista Tyrel: Uhm just need a tourist location...walking distance...so we can agree on our stories. I dunno maybe I am overthinking this. :: hands Gila the Sunblock ::
Annika Sorenson: ::looks over Gila's shoulder:: Huh, yeah..especially since I'm not familiar with this place eh?
Callista Tyrel: :: walks over to Map near Gila ::
Gila Orrak: I think we are here...or here.
Kansas Kenickie: Big Hunky Man from before> ::Puts his hand over Jami's mouth and pulls her into the storage closet::
Callista Tyrel: :: looks :: Just an attraction...a bar...a casino....another something.
Annika Sorenson: Like the pier, or harbour?
Cmdr JFarrington: :::dragged into the closet:::
Callista Tyrel: Yeah.....what is that...right there. La Playa? Your Sun and Fun Destination?
Kansas Kenickie: ACTION> PIER PEOPLE ARE CLUELESS OF THE POWER OUTAGE
Annika Sorenson: Sounds fun, sure
Callista Tyrel: Gila....okay..." The Pier ....two out of four stars " Gah it will do.
Erich Jaenke: :: Stands right behind Gila ::
Callista Tyrel: ( Erich escaped the clutches of the Pit Boss ? )
Cmdr JFarrington: :::::hot, stuffy, filled with uniforms of the servers:::hm...::::
Kansas Kenickie: Big Hunky Man from before> ::Whispers into her ear:: 31 needs to clear out from this planet.... your XO is not safe here.
Callista Tyrel: :: walks over to the Door and stops not opening it :: Damn.
Annika Sorenson: What's wrong Callista?
Annika Sorenson: ::puts on her flip flops::
Cmdr JFarrington: ::looks up:: (w) So tell me how to get out and I'll do it.
Gila Orrak: :: Turns around :: Erich? :: sees no one ::
Erich Jaenke: :: In the darkness ::
Erich Jaenke: :: He is unsure where he is ::
Kansas Kenickie: Big Hunky Man from before> we will clear the court. McRoy will be eliminated.
Callista Tyrel: Commander Jami ordered us to stay put. And.... We are not currently in any danger. At this moment. We are .....technically sheltered in place. I can't disobey her order unless...we are in imminent danger.
Kansas Kenickie: Big Hunky Man from before> ::Opens the door and pushes Jami out::
Erich Jaenke: Hello.... ello....llo... lo.. o :: He shouted into the dark
Callista Tyrel: We are ready to leave at a moment's notice...we have a destination..and from what we can tell...well out the window...the city is not on fire or anything.
Cmdr JFarrington: ::pushed out, still not sure how they're going to do this ,but following along:::
Annika Sorenson: That's true. ::Looks out of the window:: But at least we're prepared, well, sort of.
Kansas Kenickie: MAID> ::turns on the lights and looks at Erich::: the power outage is over..... how did you end up in the ballroom?
Callista Tyrel: :: looks at Gila and Annika :: I think we are doing the right thing at the moment....we are ready to move...But Sheltered in Place...albeit by an idiot on the alarm system.
Annika Sorenson: ::nods:: I agree with that
Callista Tyrel: :: looks to Gila :: Okay with hanging tight just a bit longer?
Cmdr JFarrington: :::follows along behind:::
Gila Orrak: Sure, it will allow me to examine everyone a bit closely
Kansas Kenickie: CASINO> SEEMS TO GO BACK TO NORMAL... FOR A CASINO
Gila Orrak: I thought I heard Erich.
Callista Tyrel: Examine Annika and I ? :: a bit puzzled by Gila's line :: Erich? like a whisper or something?
Gila Orrak: Well, he is Betazoid.
Annika Sorenson: But I already had my physical.
Callista Tyrel: I am confused...:: walks and sits on the bed :: I thought Betazoids were empaths not telepaths..
Kansas Kenickie: Erich> ~~Betazoid "waves (PSI) " can feel his crew, but Kansas "Angry wave" drops from his PSI ::
Annika Sorenson: ::Lays down on the bed next to Callista:: Weren't they both?
Cmdr JFarrington: :::staying with the Hulk::::
Erich Jaenke: :: The black was so...err, black... it was not a great deal better on the telepathic side either ::
Callista Tyrel: Yet I want to say one time on the ship I did here a whisper from him
Kansas Kenickie: McRoy> ::Approaches Jami:: Commander
Cmdr JFarrington: ::straightens up::: Sir!
Callista Tyrel: I guess I would take your word over my ...mechanical gear head brain :: to Gila and Annika ::
Erich Jaenke: :: Closes his eyes, though that seems meaningless in the pure dark, and felt with his mind ::
Kansas Kenickie: McRoy> don't think you little games with the power will delay your court proceedings
Cmdr JFarrington: Due respect, Sir. I have no idea what you're talking about.
..
Kansas Kenickie: McRoy> your face tells me your are a liar.... your XO will be atomized into nothing. Your games won't stop me.
Callista Tyrel: So I should listen for....signals from the chief...telepathic ones? :: puzzled ::
Cmdr JFarrington: My face, Sir? My games? :::clueless expression:::
Kansas Kenickie: McRoy> you know she is a killer, and I won't let you pretend to know otherwise.
Cmdr JFarrington: Beg your pardon, sir. Who is a killer?
Erich Jaenke: :: Realizes he has not taken medicine for a long while, no doubt the doctor's idea ::
Annika Sorenson: ::smiles:: know how'd you do that, if you're not telepathic.
Kansas Kenickie: McRoy> you call her Kansas, but she is known by several names.
Cmdr JFarrington: :::curious expression, listening:::
Kansas Kenickie: McRoy> your XO has killed 8 people I can prove... but I know her death count is around 60, maybe more.
Callista Tyrel: I have a starship hull as a skull, so you are probably right...but I swear..on one occasion I heard him. :: shrugs :: So If any of us ever get a feeling he is present we should share the experience?
Cmdr JFarrington: Due respect, sir. My XO is on earth. I'm along for the ride. Sir.
Annika Sorenson: ::giggles:: Sounds good to me?
Gila Orrak: We need to leave this hotel.
Annika Sorenson: But we have to stay put... and where would we go?
Gila Orrak: Right, we need to leave, but we have no destination.
Callista Tyrel: :: looks to Gila :: Why? I need a darn good reason to disobey an order from a superior officer...even in New Las Vegas.
Kansas Kenickie: McRoy> ::Points his finger in Jami's face:: I am no fool, and don't think I don't know your record either "Commander".
Callista Tyrel: The Pier ...we agreed to that ..just an attraction nearby...
Gila Orrak: :: laughs :: People used to take orders from me, but I guess those days are behind me.
Annika Sorenson: Aw. Sorry about that
Cmdr JFarrington: ::relaxed expression::: Don't believe you're a fool, sir. And my record? ::shrug:: Doesn't really matter. Sir.
Callista Tyrel: Believe me if a clear and present danger presents itself...we are out the door undercover as....tourists on our way to that pier.
Callista Tyrel: What rank did you have before Gila?
Kansas Kenickie: McRoy> everything matters,, just because this is vagus doesn't mean we let everything go.
Cmdr JFarrington: Understood, sir.
Gila Orrak: Oh the double oh uses a more...fluid rank system
Kansas Kenickie: McRoy> Court will start in 2 days. best say your goodbyes
Cmdr JFarrington: To you, sir?
Callista Tyrel: Sounds slippery. :: smiles ::
Kansas Kenickie: McRoy> To Kenickie
Callista Tyrel: :: looks at brochure on Dabo Gaming :: Ooh I needed this..
Kansas Kenickie: McRoy> ::walks away from her
Cmdr JFarrington: Commander Kenickie, sir? She's already gone. Thought you knew that.
Kansas Kenickie: McRoy> she is in my brig.
Cmdr JFarrington: Is she?
Kansas Kenickie: McRoy> in the Brig or dead
Callista Tyrel: Saving that for future study. :: puts in purse :: Now...once we hear from the Commander..we are good to go.
