[sTSF_Jami] =/\==/\= Starfleet Academy Briefing Stardate August 16, 2005=/\==/\=

[sTSF_Jami] In the name of education, the faculty of Starfleet Academy has subjected the crew of USS Goldstein (refit Galaxy Class) to an emergency landing on a small barely-habitable planet.

[sTSF_Jami] Hot, dusty, few plants and fewer animals.

[sTSF_Jami] We have one tricorder apiece, four escape pods, and emergency supplies for one week.

[sTSF_Jami] Unfortunately, one whole day has passed and all we've accomplished is to build a domed shelter and stay out of a dust storm. But is the dust storm the only thing we need to worry about?

[Lieutenant_jg_T_Parek] <CSCI> ::on the Bridge at the Science station::

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC> ::looks around::

[sTSF_Jami] <EVERYONE IS ON THE PLANET>>

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO>::looking around::

[Ens._Eagle] <amo1><cmo>well dehydration not a problem yet...

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> ::standing in the doorway of the domed shelter::

[Lieutenant_jg_T_Parek] ::on the planet::

[Kestra_Miral] <ASCI1> ::scanning for any nearby vegetation::

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO><AMO>Glad to hear that.

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC><CSEC> Whoa not much going on here...

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> ::glances to Jami:: <CO> At least the dust storm has passed.

[Lieutenant_jg_T_Parek] <CSCI> ::scans around::

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> ::Listening::: Sounds like the wind has died down.

[Rana_Zor] <AENG>::finishes sealing up the shelter's environment::

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> <CSCI> What's your take on it? Think we should take a look outside?

[cdt.O_Conner] <ASEC1>::sits on a rock and wait for nothing in particular::

[Ens_Lepage] <ASCI2> ::standing next to Kestra waiting for her results::

[Cdt.George_Pickett] <CENG>::Starts checking all ENG, supplies::

[Ens._Eagle] <amo1><cmo>respiratory irritation and fatique biggest problem now

[Lt.jg_Chell_Reno] <CSEC><Minion1, Minion2> Aright gang how are we doing?

[Kestra_Miral] <ASCI1> <ASCI2> There's practically nothing around here. ::holds up her tricorder to show him the readings::

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO><AMO>We should be ready for that then...not much we can do for either though.

 

[cdt.O_Conner] <ASEC1><CSEC>so far.........nothing

[Rana_Zor] <AENG>::Pours out water from a silver cannister:: <CENG> Here you go cheif.

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC> <ASEC1> Nope nothing

[Cdt.George_Pickett] <CENG><AENG>Please help me check these supplies.

[sTSF_Jami] ROSTER UPDATE - CENG = Cdt George Pickett

[sTSF_Jami] ROSTER UPDATE - SGV = LtCdrAndrea Knlwtchr

[Rana_Zor] <AENG><CENG>Aye sir, ::rummages through the

[Cdt.George_Pickett] <AENG><CENG>Aye Chief!

[Rana_Zor] <AENG>::bundles::

[Ens_Lepage] <ASCI2><ASCI1> That's exactly what I feared nothing but some veggies ::points at the few plants:: and some erm whatever you may call these animals.

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> ::moves to the CENG:: Chief, do you think you and your team could work on a way to get some water? I know we have enough supplies for a week, but I don't want to take any chances...

[Rana_Zor] <AENG>::scans the pile of containers::

[Lt.jg_Chell_Reno] <CSEC><Minions> Check the phasers see how many power cells we have then spread the weapons among the crew accordingly.

[cdt.O_Conner] <ASEC1><CSEC>so...what do you need me to do, sir.

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC><CSEC> Okay

[cdt.O_Conner] <ASEC1>Aye,sir

[Kestra_Miral] <ASCI1> <ASCI2> ::looks at where he's pointing:: Well maybe we should start gathering any plants that are edible. Let's ask the chief.

[Cdt.George_Pickett] <CENG>::turns to the <XO>I'm just finishing checking our supplies and I will get right on it sir!

[cdt.O_Conner] <ASEC1>::checks his phaser then sets off to find more crewmen::

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO>::starts going through the medical supplies and taking inventory::

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC> ::follows behind ASEC1::

[Ens_Lepage] <ASCI2> ::nods and frowns:: <ASCI1> I hope we won't have to eat that!

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC><ASEC1> Need any help?

[Cdt.George_Pickett] <CENG><AENG>Please finish this inventory and then meet up with me outside I'm going to try to get us some water

[cdt.O_Conner] <ASEC1><ASEC2>sure

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> <CENG> So noted. Do you think it can be done, Chief?

[Rana_Zor] <AENG><CENG> Sir we have a week's supply of emergency rations and medicine, but we are low on water.

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> <XO> Number One, I was distracted momentarily. Do we have a go for exit, or should we stay inside the shelters?

[Cdt.George_Pickett] <AENG><CENG>Understood sir.

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> <CO> It does sound like the wind has died down, Sir. I believe an exit is in order.

[Cdt.George_Pickett] <CENG><XO>It may be possible Sir.

[cdt.O_Conner] <ASEC1><ASEC2>go check on the commanding officers and I'll check the shelter.

[Lt.jg_Chell_Reno] <CSEC>::walk up to the CO and hands her a phaser::<CO> I think you might need this. Whats the lay of the land thus far sir?

[Ens_Lepage] <ASCI2> ::walks up to T'Parek::

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC><ASEC1> Okay well what do you need me to do?

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> <CENG> Well, if it can be done, I'm sure you'll find a way. Thanks, Chief.

[Cdt.George_Pickett] <CENG>::Steps out of the pod and begins to look around::

 

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO>::walks over to deBain and Jami::

[Kestra_Miral] <ASCI1> <ASCI2> Well with any luck we won't be here long enough to eat them. ::follows Lepage::

[Rana_Zor] <AENG>::takes his tricorder and an engineering kit out to the Chief::

[cdt.O_Conner] <AEC1><ASCE2>Check on their power cells and phasers

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> ::takes the phaser::: Not sure. Haven't had time to take a look around.

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC><ASEC1> Okay, Umm why am I ASEC2?

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> <CO> Shall I open the door then?

[sTSF_Jami] ROSTER UPDATE - Assistant Engineer (AENG) - Ensign Aceavia Kartanis

[Lt.jg_Chell_Reno] <CSEC><CO> I'll send out my team to servey the area. See what shelters we cand find that sort of thing.

[cdt.O_Conner] <ASEC1><<you were second on the roster>>

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> ::takes a deep breath::: <XO> Go for it, Number One.

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO>::clears throat::

[Rana_Zor] <AENG1><AENG2> Welcome Kartanis

[Ens_Lepage] <ASCI2><CSCI> Sir, Miral and I have been wondering whether we should look for anything edible and gather it...just in case.

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> <CMO> Ah, Mr T'Linna. What's on your mind?

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> Hopefully the higherups back home know what they're doing landing us here.

[Ensign_AceaviaKartanis] <AENG2><AENG1 Thank you, Zor. Any orders?

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> ::hand poised on the door, ready to push it open::

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> <CMO> Yes, Doctor?

[Cdt.George_Pickett] <CENG>::Wraps some cloth around his face to help with the dust::

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO><MXO>Our medical supplies are severely limited, sir.

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> Hold off, Number One.

[Lt.jg_Chell_Reno] <CSEC><ASEC1&2> Spread out see what your can find and be carefull.

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> <CO> Aye, Captain.

[cdt.O_Conner] <ASEC1>Aye,sir

[Ensign_AceaviaKartanis] <AENG2><AENG1> Nevermind.. ::Runs around checking supplies and taking inventory.

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> <CMO> So . . . we should stay put?

[Rana_Zor] <AENG1><CENG> Here Chief a manifest of all our supplies. Do you think a dowel might work?

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO><CMO> Yes, that's to be expected, as part of our training. Should we stay in here, then?

[Lieutenant_jg_T_Parek] <<sorry.... java is giving me fits>>

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2><ASEC1> Well I'll go this way ::Points east::

[Ens_Lepage] <<np>>

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO><CO> That would be a good idea, ma'am. We don't know how dangerous this planet is.

[Lt.jg_Chell_Reno] <CSEC><ASEC2> very good. Meet back here in an hour and a half.

[Lieutenant_jg_T_Parek] <CSCI><ASCI> What is our status?

[cdt.O_Conner] <ASEC1>I'll go this way::points and runs west::

[Cdt.George_Pickett] <CENG>::Takes some Tricorder readings::

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> <CMO> Well, Doctor - I would hope that our superiors back home would give us somewhat of a friendly planet.

[Rana_Zor] <AENG1>::fashions a dowel and attempts to locate water the ancient earth way::

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> <CSCI> ::looks at tParek, waiting for the scan results:::

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2>::heads off for her journery::

[sTSF_Jami] <<EVERYONE IS STILL INSIDE>>

[Lt.jg_Chell_Reno] <CSEC>::securs a phaser and a tricoder and sets off into the hills::

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO><CO>So would I, ma'am, but there's no telling what dangers could be out there.

[cdt.O_Conner] <ASEC1>::walks up to ENG staff:: are all of you set on phasers?

[Lieutenant_jg_T_Parek] <CSCI> <CO> In progress, Sir.

[Ens_Lepage] <ASCI2><CSCI> So far scans have urned up with nothing interesting. A few plants and animals that's all.

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> <CMO> True. But we can't stay in here forever, can we. ::grin::

[Ensign_AceaviaKartanis] <AENG2><AENG1> ::Walking over:: What are you doing?

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> <CO,CMO> How do our supplies look? I believe I heard mention of our water supply being a bit low.

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> :::taps her foot waiting for science report:::

[Lt.jg_Chell_Reno] <CSEC>::Is still inside and all those last 101 posts dont count lol::

[Ensign_AceaviaKartanis] <AENG2>::Checks her phaser on her hip and nods to O'Connor::

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> <XO> Like we might need to look for some. I agree.

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> <CO,CMO> I've already given orders to the Chief Engineer to work on a way to find some water, whether by digging or by extracting it from the air somehow.

[Lieutenant_jg_T_Parek] <CSCI> <CSCI> Sorry, Captain. The scans have turned up nothing interesting. A few plants and animals, nothing more.

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO>Water is low...medical supplies are low...everything else appears to be all right.

[sTSF_Jami] <<Sorry, Reno - good playing, tho>>

[Rana_Zor] <AENG1><ASEC1> I don't think I brought mine.

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO><CO>And, no, ma'am, we can't stay in here forver.

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2><ASEC1>Brought what?

[Ens_Lepage] <<he's talking to himself now>>

[Ensign_Eagle] <<sorry stsf server dc,d me>>

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> <CSCI> ::nods::: Open the door, Number One.

[Lt.jg_Chell_Reno] <<its ok. I should have read the mission briefing more closely.lol :::

[Cdt.George_Pickett] <CENG>::Now moving off to take some more readings::

[sTSF_Jami] <<We're just going outside, Eagle. Hang tight>>

[Ensign_TLinna] <<WB eagle>>

[Ensign_AceaviaKartanis] <AENG2><AENG1> You can use mine if needed, Zor. Can you show me how you're doing this real quick?

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> <CO> Aye, Captain. ::pushes his hand against the door, sliding it open to reveal . . . . . . . . .

[Cdt.George_Pickett] <CENG>::waiting to get out::

[cdt.O_Conner] <ASEC1><AENG1>ok::hands him an extra:: are you cleared on how to use this?

[Rana_Zor] <AENG1><AENG2> Sure, you just pull at both ends of the stick until it's taught and then wait for the device to dip to the ground.

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO>::readies a tricorder and grabs a medkit just in case::

[sTSF_Jami] ACTION: LOTS AND LOTS OF SAND

[Ens_Lepage] <ASCI2> ::taking some steps towards the door::

[Cdt.George_Pickett] <CENG><AENG1>How are you comming?

[sTSF_Jami] ACTION: NOT MUCH BUT SAND, IN FACT

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> ::draws out his tricorder, steps outside into the brightness of the post-storm light::

[Lt.jg_Chell_Reno] <CSEC>::gaps at the lots and lots of sand::

[Rana_Zor] <AENG1><ASEC1> Yes sir, point and shoot. lol

[Ensign_Eagle] <AMO1><CMO>dont forget to wet your face mask to filter better maam

[Ens_Lepage] <ASCI2><ASCI1> Whoa this is one huge beach!

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO>::walks toward the door:: Wow...sand. ::rolls eyes:::

[cdt.O_Conner] <ASEC1>::smiles::

[Ensign_AceaviaKartanis] <AENG2> ::Chuckles, fashioning herself one and digging into the ground as well.. ::

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> ::nods to Lepage's comment:::

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2>::gahhh covers eyes and crawls into fetal postion::

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO><AMO>thanks, eagle. ::does so::

[Rana_Zor] <AENG1><AENG2> No you don't dig with it. LOL

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> ::scanscan, glances around::

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2> ::gets up:: Okay not all that bad...

[Ensign_AceaviaKartanis] <AENG2><AENG1> You don't?

[Rana_Zor] <AENG1><CENG> Well sir quite a few dips but hardly any drips noticeable yet.

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> ::motions the CENG forward::

[Ensign_AceaviaKartanis] <AENG2><AENG1> Just stab it into the ground?

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> ::peeks out, thinking the Doctor may have been right:::

[Cdt.George_Pickett] <CENG>::Now steps outside Covering face::

[Ensign_Eagle] <amo1>::wets face mask and dons ::

[cdt.O_Conner] <ASEC1><AENG2>do you have a phaser?

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2><ASEC1> Umm yep I do

[Ensign_AceaviaKartanis] << You gave him one O'Connor >>

[Kestra_Miral] <ASCI1> <ASCI2> Well you were always the meteorology expert. Do you think we're going to see a repeat of that dust storm?

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO>::gives Jami the "I told you so" look::

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> :::grabs a face mask:::

[Rana_Zor] <AENG1>::coughs on the sand flying in through the doors::

[Ensign_AceaviaKartanis] <AENG2>::Tries to stab it into the ground, spitting out sand and trying to cover her face::

[Cdt.George_Pickett] <CENG>::Notices the <XO> and continues on checking his tricorder::

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO><EVERYONE>Face masks. They'll block the sand.

[Ens_Lepage] <ASCI2><ASCI1> Dust storms are unpredictable...I'd say we won't see any for the next 2 minutes though ::smirks::

[cdt.O_Conner] <ASEC1>arrgh!::covers head with his shirt::

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> ::nods to t'Linna::speaking through the mask::: I'm beginning to lose faith in our superiors.

[Lieutenant_jg_T_Parek] <CSCI> ::takes a face mask and places it on her face::

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> <CENG> What do you think, Chief? ::scanning all around, noting the arid conditions of the planet, at least in their vicinity::

[Rana_Zor] <AENG1>::boosts the confinement beam on the tricorder scan:: <CENG> Sir, I think we've found a natural spring underneath this dirt bed.

[Ensign_AceaviaKartanis] <AENG2> ::Takes a face mask as well, strapping it on and still coughing up sand::

[cdt.O_Conner] <ASEC1>::runs to container with face masks;puts one on::

[Ensign_Eagle] <amo1><everyone>wet your mask it will filter better

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2>::puts mask on::

[Lt.jg_Chell_Reno] <CSEC>::grabs a facemask and slaps it on::

[Ens_Lepage] <ASCI2> ::takes face mask and puts it on::

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> ::steps back toward the shelter, retrieving a face mask and strapping it on::

[Kestra_Miral] <ASCI1> <ASCI2> Right. ::dons mask:: Well I can always use you for cover.

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2> I dont know if we should use our water to wet them

[sTSF_Jami] ACTION: A LOW, WARBLING HOWL IS HEARD IN THE DISTANCE, LIKE THE WIND, ONLY A LITTLE MORE OMINOUS

[Cdt.George_Pickett] <CENG><XO>Sir, I have few, very few signs of plant life we might be able to extract some water from them but I don't think it will be enough for us all.

[LtCdrAndreaKnlwtchr] <SGV>::an 8' tall, very large, furry, blue big-foot type creature meandering through the sand dunes that outlay the "camp", rifling through the drifts::

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO>::hears howling:: What's that?

[cdt.O_Conner] <ASEC1>::draws phaser::<CSEC>waht was that?!?

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2><ASEC1>You hear that?

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> ::turns::: What's what?

[Lieutenant_jg_T_Parek] <CSCI> ::shivers at the sound of the wind::

[Rana_Zor] <AENG1><AENG2> Keep digging! I think we've struck gold.

[Ens_Lepage] <ASCI2><ASCI1> Do I get a date in return? ::turns around...what was that? ::starts scanning::

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> ::stops to listen:::

[cdt.O_Conner] <ASEC1><ASEC2>yeah

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2> ::grabs phaser::

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO><CO>That...howling.

[Ensign_Eagle] <amo1><cmo>have no idea , maybe the wind

[LtCdrAndreaKnlwtchr] <SGV>::letting out Wookie like calls, turning a burrowing creature over in his hands::

[Ensign_AceaviaKartanis] <AENG2><AENG1> I thought you said not to dig!? ::Frantically keeps doing what he told her to..::

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> <CMO> Sounded like the wind to me.

[LtCdrAndreaKnlwtchr] <SGV>::then biting off its head::

[Lt.jg_Chell_Reno] <CSEC><ASECs> Not sure. Keep on your tows.

[Lieutenant_jg_T_Parek] <CSCI> ::doesn't like the sound of something...::

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2><ASEC1> Any ideas?

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> ::squints into the sky:: <CENG> Do you suppose there's much moisture in the air? Perhaps we could dig a couple of pits to collect water from the atomsphere..

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO><CO>I don't know. Maybe.

[Kestra_Miral] <ASCI1> <ASCI2> It sounded like the wind, but you can never be sure. ::turns around and scans opposite of Lepage::

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> ::hearing the howls, figuring it's the wind ripping over the dunes::

[Cdt.George_Pickett] <CENG> +<AENG1>+ Report please how are you coming?

[Rana_Zor] <AENG1><AENG2> Well that's an unconventional use of a dowel but if we've found a spring we should dig. ::opens up a spade and begins digging::

[cdt.O_Conner] <ASEC1><ASEC2>spread out and search?

[LtCdrAndreaKnlwtchr] <SGV>::advancing alittle more upon the camp, scratching its deep blue fur::

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2><ASEC1> Okay but stay in eye sight okay?

[cdt.O_Conner] <ASEC1><ASEC2>right

[Ens_Lepage] <ASCI2><ASCI1> Any results yet? And what about my other question? ::grins::

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2><ASEC1> Bye

[Ensign_Eagle] <AMO1><CMO>if it,s not the wind, god help us

[sTSF_Jami] ACTION: THE HOWL COMES AGAIN, ONLY THIS TIME A SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT PITCH. IT SEEMS TO COME FROM EVERYWHERE AND FROM NOWHERE, ECHOING THROUGH THE DUNES

[cdt.O_Conner] <ASEC1>::nods::

[Rana_Zor] <AENG1><CENG> I think we might have found a spring.

[Lieutenant_jg_T_Parek] <CSCI> ::wonders what that sound was::

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2> ::walks slowly away::

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> ::glances up at that one::

[Lieutenant_jg_T_Parek] <<Everywhere and nowhere? What is this? The Guardian of Forever??? >>

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO><AMO>Please don't say that...

[Rana_Zor] <may the schwartz be with you>

[cdt.O_Conner] <ASEC1>::strafes to the left::

[Ensign_AceaviaKartanis] <AENG2><AENG1> Well just because I'm unconventional doesn't mean my ways don't work ::Smiles and grabs a spade, digging frantically::

[Ensign_TLinna] <<lol T'Parek>>

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> ::glances back to Jami:: <CO> Captain.. that didn't sound like the wind.

[LtCdrAndreaKnlwtchr] <SGV>::deeply groans, stretching high as he finishes the burrowing creature::

[Kestra_Miral] <ASCI1> <ASCI2> ::grins back:: If we get off this planet, I'll give you an answer. ::looking at her tricorder:: I can't find the source of the howling, maybe it is just the wind.

[Lt.jg_Chell_Reno] <CSEC><ASEC> Stay together ::motions for the ASECs to get back into formation::

[Ens_Lepage] <ASCI2><CSCI> This doesn't sound very reassuring.

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> ::stops::: <XO> Agreed. I think we should stick together.

[Lieutenant_jg_T_Parek] <CSCI> <ASCI2> Indeed not.

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2><ASEC1> Oh well....

[Ensign_Eagle] <AMO1><CMO>just being practacal maam

[cdt.O_Conner] <ASEC1><CSEC>Yes sir

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> <CO> I concur.

[sTSF_Jami] <What Reno said>

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO><AMO>Okay.

[cdt.O_Conner] <ASEC1>::goes back to position

[Rana_Zor] <AENG1>::piling up a little mound of dirt coughing and sweating, unzipping his uniform::

[Cdt.George_Pickett] <CENG><XO>My AENG may have found a spring I'm going to check on it now Sir.

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> <CO> I have the Chief Engineer working on a way to get some water.

[LtCdrAndreaKnlwtchr] <SGV>::more Wookie sounds, but louder::

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2><CSEC> So what do we do now, wait until something eats us?

[Ens_Lepage] <ASCI2><ASCI1> Me neither. And please don't let me wait for a simple no.

[Lt.jg_Chell_Reno] <CSEC><ASECs> if we get lost in this storm you will die. End of sentence. Stay in formation unless I say otherwise.

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO>::moves a little closer to the SEC team::

 

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> <CENG> Acknowledged . . . a spring, in the desert? Intriguing. I wonder if the tricorder might be malfunctioning...

[Ens_Lepage] <ASCI2><CSCI> Scans don't come up with anything.

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2><CSEC> Yes sir

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2> ::sticks tongue out::

[Ensign_AceaviaKartanis] <AENG2><AENG1> ::Continues digging a bit, gently touching the moist sand:: It's a bit more compact, be careful we don't know how deep it goes.

[Kestra_Miral] <ASCI1> ::winks at ASCI2:: I wouldn't.

[Lieutenant_jg_T_Parek] <CSCI> <CO> ::nods:: Scans are inconclusive, Sir.

[Ensign_Eagle] <AMO1>::moves closer to cmo and sec team::

[cdt.O_Conner] <ASEC1>::nods to CSEC::

[Cdt.George_Pickett] <CENG><XO>That was my thinking sir.

[Kestra_Miral] <ASCI1> <CSCI> Maybe we should move out a little, widen our scan range?

[LtCdrAndreaKnlwtchr] <SGV>::moving with long strides alittle closer to the shelters::

[Cdt.George_Pickett] <CENG>::Head towards <AENG1>

[Lt.jg_Chell_Reno] <CSEC>::catches the gesture but ignores it. Makeing a mental not to talk about that "attitude" later::

[LtCdrAndreaKnlwtchr] <SGV>::stops, sniffs, and begins to dig in the dunes again::

[Lieutenant_jg_T_Parek] <CSCI><ASCI1> Indeed. But check in fairly often.

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2> ::whistles::

[Ens_Lepage] <ASCI2><ASCI1> I fear you're right. No results is usually not an answer the Captain is satisfied with

[cdt.O_Conner] <ASEC1><ASEC2>stop that your making me nervous

[Rana_Zor] <AEG1>::scratches a hard surface with the spade and tries to break through:: <AENG2> What does the tricorder say about this surface we've struck upon?

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2><ASEC1>What?

[Lt.jg_Chell_Reno] <CSEC>::thinks to himself how you can whistle in the middle of a sandstorm::

[Ensign_Eagle] <AMO1><CMO>::gasps and blinks::DID YOU SEE THAT MAAM

[Lieutenant_jg_T_Parek] <CSCI> ::scans and sees a momentary glitch, but loses it.::

[Cdt.George_Pickett] <CENG>::Standing behind <AENG1> who is busy digging:: <AENG1>May I see your Tricorder please?

[Kestra_Miral] <ASCI1> <ASCI2> Let's move out a little. There's more vegetation here, so if it is an animal it would probably be in this direction. ::motions ahead of her::

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO><AMO>See what? ::hasn't seen anything::

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2>::chokes on dust::

[LtCdrAndreaKnlwtchr] <SGV>::Short gargly sounds, scratching chest and then calling into the wind::

[Ensign_Eagle] <amo1><cmo>nothing i guess, could have sworn i saw something in the sand

[Ens_Lepage] <ASCI2><ASCI1> Alright but if it's something big and dangerous don't count on me. I'll protect you from storms but the rest...well I cannot promise anything. ::follows Kestra::

[Rana_Zor] <AENG1><AENG2> I bet there is water just beyond this crust ::thwaps the ground harder::

[LtCdrAndreaKnlwtchr] <SGV>::then, stopping to sniff the wind again::

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO><AMO>You sure you're all right, Eagle?

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2><ASEC1>I see it too...

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> :::grabs DeBain's arm::: There. Something is moving.

[Kestra_Miral] <ASCI1> <ASCI2> I can barely even see anything with all this dust around. ::stupidly venturing out, tricorder in hand::

[Ensign_AceaviaKartanis] <AENG2><AENG1> Crust? It clangs when you hit it, which resembles some sort of metal.

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> ::Pointing::

[Lt.jg_Chell_Reno] <CSEC><ASECs> Theirs some thing out their. Set your phaser on wide beam. Prepare to sweep the area on my command. <CO>Sir In going to sweep the area with our phasers to see if the energy will connect with something... Light it up.

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO>::looks to where Jami's pointing::

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> ::peers into the distance::

[cdt.O_Conner] <ASEC1>:::readies phaser::

[LtCdrAndreaKnlwtchr] <SGV>::taking in a deep breath and looking directly at the away team::

[Ensign_Eagle] <amo1><cmo>::shakes head :: ok maam

[Cdt.George_Pickett] <CENG><AENG1>I think that you can stop digging, I believe that the composition of this sand is affecting the Tricorder

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> ::sees nothing moving::

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2><CSEC> Yes sir... ::takes phaser and sets it to wide beam::

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> :::to Reno::: I can see something moving in the dunes to the southwest.

[Rana_Zor] <AENG1>::covered in sweat removes his shirt throwing it to the ground, stepping forward and breaking through the surface falling into the pit:: AAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!

[Kestra_Miral] <ASCI1> <ASCI2> Did you hear that? ::turns around quickly in the direction of the scream::

[Rana_Zor] <AENG1><CENG> Help sir! ::grasping the edges of the pit sliding down::

[LtCdrAndreaKnlwtchr] <SGV>::hurriedly and swiftly traverses across towards the pit and delves into it::

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2><ASEC1> Maybe we should go shot at it?

[Lt.jg_Chell_Reno] <<I've g2g hear in a minuet>>

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO><AMO>No...::turns toward the scream:: What was that?

[Lieutenant_jg_T_Parek] <CSCI> ::hears a scream::

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2><ASEC1> Fine

[Ens_Lepage] <ASCI2><ASCI1> Let's go and see what's wrong. Maybe they need help.

[Ensign_AceaviaKartanis] <AENG2> ::Backs away from the pit incase the edges collapse, backing against the edge.::

[Cdt.George_Pickett] <CENG><AENG1>Grab my hand!

[LtCdrAndreaKnlwtchr] <SGV>::the big blue creatures hands wrap around Zors head with ease and pull him out of the pit::

[Lt.jg_Chell_Reno] <CSEC>::cease fire:: <CO> It was on a low power beam sire. Count a fly. It would just light it up so we could tell its mass and such.

[Ensign_Eagle] <amo1><cmo>best gues an indigenous lf,....and a carnivore maam

[Kestra_Miral] <ASCI1> ::lets Lepage go first and then follows::

[Rana_Zor] <AENG1>::sees the huge beast and looses his grip, shouting a blood curdling scream::

[Ens_Lepage] <ASCI2> ::starts running in the direction of the scream::

[Lieutenant_jg_T_Parek] <CSCI> +ASCI1 AND 2+ Stay where you are!!!

[LtCdrAndreaKnlwtchr] <SGV>::drags Zor into the Sandy wind::

[Ensign_Eagle] <amo1>::sighs, aye maam::

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2><ASEC1> Can we shoot yet?

[sTSF_Jami] ROSTER UPDATE - CSEC = Cdt OConner

[Cdt.George_Pickett] <CENG> +<XO>+ Sir I have an emergency my AENG1 is hanging in a pit!!! ::As he reaches farther for the AENG.

[Ensign_AceaviaKartanis] <AENG2> ::Gasps at the creature and scidadles up the side of the ditch and runs behind Pickett, withdrawing her phaser::

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2><ASEC1> Okay...:sigh::

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> ::to anyone::: What's happening? Who's screaming? What's that thing?

[Lieutenant_jg_T_Parek] <CSCI> +ASCI1 AND 2+ Don't engage whatever is out there unless instructed to.

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> :::Captain Clueless:::

[Ensign_AceaviaKartanis] <AENG2><CO> Something took Zor! ::Points down at the pit::

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO>::takes a few steps toward Zor and the creature and stops::

[cdt.O_Conner] <CESC><CO>sir...your order??

[LtCdrAndreaKnlwtchr] <SGV>::holds Zor high into the wind and lets out another grunt, shaking him side to side::

[Kestra_Miral] <ASCI1> +CSCI+ What's going on? Is someone from the AT injured?

[Ensign_Eagle] <amo1>::hands cmo a extra laser scapel ::

[Ens_Lepage] <ASCI2><ASCI1> Whoa man...sounds like someone needs help and we're supposed to stay here?

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> ::phaser in hand by now, steps toward the creature::

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> <CSEC> I think we need to get our cadet back.

[Rana_Zor] <AENG1>::Gasps for breath::

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO>::takes the scalpal and wonders what good it's going to do::

[Ens_Lepage] <ASCI2>+CSCI+ But,Sir...what if they need help?

[Ensign_Eagle] <amo1>::follows cmo::

[LtCdrAndreaKnlwtchr] <SGV>::then suddenly sets Zor back down, although abruptly::

[Lieutenant_jg_T_Parek] <CSCI> +ASCI2+ Engage, but BE CAREFUL!

[sTSF_Jami] <that works>

[Cdt.George_Pickett] <CENG>::Finally having a little time try to figure out what to do about the water problem::

[Ensign_AceaviaKartanis] <AENG2><AENG1> I don't think it would cause that serious of bleeding to have blood come from your mouth. You just have a gash on your cheek.

[Kestra_Miral] <ASCI1> <MXO> Here you go. ::takes off combadge and hands it over::

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> ::sighs at the CMO's statement:::

[Lieutenant_jg_T_Parek] <CSCI> <MXO> What... is that?

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2><CSEC> So what are we going to do now?

[LtCdrAndreaKnlwtchr] <SGV>::looks into its opening over his head as a drop of water falls::

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO>::hears Jami sigh::

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> <SGV> ::shows it the commbadge, then points to the water:: Where can we find water?

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> <CMO> What do you make of this creature? Ever come across anything like it?

[LtCdrAndreaKnlwtchr] <SGV>::shakes the canteen, frustrated that no more falls::

[Ens_Lepage] <ASCI2><ASCI1> So much for edible plants...next time we got nothing to eat we'll take the commbadge

[LtCdrAndreaKnlwtchr] <SGV>::smacking the side of it::

[cdt.O_Conner] <CSEC><CO>Captain,

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> <SGV> Easy, guv'nuh...

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> :::watching her water pour out on the ground::

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO><CO>I've never seen something like that before...

[Ensign_Eagle] <AMO1><AENG2>lets get him inside...now

[Rana_Zor] <AENG1><AENG2> I'm not gonna make it am I?

[LtCdrAndreaKnlwtchr] <SGV>::looking around, frustrated::

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> ::making a note to give his water rations to the Captain, since he spilled all hers::

[LtCdrAndreaKnlwtchr] <SGV>::then suddenly heads off into the dunes::

[Cdt.George_Pickett] <CENG>::Unable to scan anything head towards the AENG's and the Creature::

[Ensign_AceaviaKartanis] <AENG2><AENG1> Buck up, chum. You'll be fine.

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> <SGV> Hey! Are you going to take us to water?

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> <CMO> Me either. ::;sees SGV:::motions to CSEC::: Follow it.

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO>::watches the creature move off::<CO>Should we follow?

[LtCdrAndreaKnlwtchr] <SGV>::taking very long strides over dunes with ease::

[Ensign_Eagle] <amo1>::assist aeng2 getting aeng1 inside dome::

[Ensign_AceaviaKartanis] <AENG2> ::Nods to the AMO, gently dragging him over to the shelter::

[Rana_Zor] <AENG1>::bends over moaning in pain::

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> ::moving back toward the main group:: <CO> Fascinating indeed.

[Ens_Lepage] <ASCI2> ::looks at T'parek::

[LtCdrAndreaKnlwtchr] <SGV>::coming to a small gathering of trees ::

[cdt.O_Conner] <CSEC><CO>Aye,sir::heads where creature is going

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> <CMO> We'll let security do that. They're more equipped than we are.

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO><CO>Understood.

[Lieutenant_jg_T_Parek] <CSCI> ::looks at Lepage and shrugs::

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2> ::looks at the creature::

[LtCdrAndreaKnlwtchr] <SGV>::climbs a hig dune and then jumps over it, disappearing with a long WOOOOOOOO::

[sTSF_Jami] <<if you have to leave, you may. We're going to run over the hour about five minutes.>>

[cdt.O_Conner] <CSEC>::folows creature::<ASEC2>come on!

[LtCdrAndreaKnlwtchr] ::Then, KERSPLASH!::

[Ensign_TLinna] <<lol Andrea>>

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> ::to all::: Did I hear a splash?

[Ens_Lepage] <ASCI2><CSCI> Alright I don't mind leaving the running to security.

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO>Splash?

[cdt.O_Conner] <CSEC>WHOOOOHOOOO

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO>I heard it too!

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2><CSEC>Ok

[Ensign_Eagle] <amo1><aeng2>just what i thought ::scans aeng1 again, ribs bruised bad and a cut inside the mouth::

[Lieutenant_jg_T_Parek] <CSCI> ::grins::

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> <CO> Captain, the creature appears to be intelligent. It distinctly attempted to mimic word pattern.. and.. ::glancing behind him, where the creature went:: I believe that WAS a splash..

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> +CSEC+ Report.

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2><CSEC> Coming ::runs::

[Ensign_AceaviaKartanis] <AENG2><AMO> It's on his cheek ::Points to his cheek::

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> <XO> Agreed.

[cdt.O_Conner] <CSEC>+CO+Captain WE FOUND WATER!!!

[LtCdrAndreaKnlwtchr] <SGV>::wading in the water, the canteen on his belly::

[Cdt_DigitalLava] <ASEC2><CSEC> Wow

[Cdt_deBain] <MXO> ::excited:: <CO> If so, it proves that the creature is sentient - it knew I was asking for water!

[LtCdrAndreaKnlwtchr] <SGV>::grunting, mimicking the earlier wave he learned::

[Ensign_TLinna] <CMO>::hears the report about water and smiles::

[cdt.O_Conner] <CSEC>+CO+REPEAT WE FOUND WATER!!!

[sTSF_Jami] <CO> +CSEC+ Fantastic! It's about time . . . to...
