21:01 | CaptMcCloud | Goode evening, Crew. Good to see you all, and I hope Laura isn't affecting where you live, though I know you want the rain, Doc. |
21:01 | ... | Have you all read the brief and do we have any questions? |
21:02 | Cdr_Hart | No questions, Skipper. |
21:02 | Lt_Andrews | Yes and no, Sir. |
21:02 | Lt_Banning | y/n, Sir. |
21:03 | Lt_Shadow | y/n sir |
21:03 | CaptMcCloud | Awesome. Let's... |
21:03 | ... | =/\= BEGIN SIM =/\= |
21:03 | NOTE: Names in GREEN indicate NPCs. |
21:04 | CaptMcCloud | CO > :: steps onto the bridge from the RR. Goes to his seat:: |
21:04 | Lt_Shadow | CMO>:: In Sickbay, making sure everything is ready in case it's needed;; |
21:06 | Cdr_Hart | A-XO > :: gets up from teh command seat and mvoes to the XO's seat:: We're just entering Highlander space, Captain. |
21:06 | Lt_Andrews | TAC > :: at the bridge console, scanning for ships:: |
21:07 | Lt_Banning | SCI > :: manipulating the sensor net to find any more traces of the ships:: |
21:08 | CaptMcCloud | CO > :: nods and sits down:: [ A-XO ] Thank you, Tom. :: looks at the main screen:: |
21:09 | Lt_Banning | SCI >[ CO ] Captain, I do have traces of the attacker ships, but they're around High, the Highlander home planet. |
21:10 | CaptMcCloud | CO > :: furrows his brows:: [ HELM ] take us to High. |
21:11 | EnsToine: | HELM >[ CO ] Aye, Sir. :: taps the helm console moving the ship toward High:: |
21:12 | Cdr_Hart | A-XO >[ CO ] You think the Highlanders can be behind this? |
21:12 | Lt_Andrews | TAC > :: scanning High for defenses:: |
21:13 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ A-XO ] From what I've read about them, it is not their style, but :: shrugs:: Who knows? |
21:13 | Lt_Shadow | CMO>;; finishes getting Sickbay ready for any emergency before heading up to the bridge to see what's going on there;; |
21:13 | Cdr_Hart | A-XO > :: nods:: |
21:15 | =/\=ACTION: It doesn't take long to get into High's orbit. Dr. Shadow gets a sense of pure euphoria coming from the Highlanders. =/\= |
21:16 | Lt_Shadow | CMO>[C] well it sure feels like they'd be happy to see us... |
21:16 | EnsToine: | HELM >[ CO ] Approaching High, Sir. |
21:16 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ HELM ] Assume standard orbit, Ensign. |
21:17 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ CMO ] :: looks to Shadow:: Care to elaborate? |
21:17 | EnsToine: | HELM > :: puts the ship in standard orbit:: |
21:18 | Cdr_Hart | A-XO > :: looks to Shadow:: |
21:19 | Lt_Shadow | CMO>[CO] there seems to be a sense of pure euphoria from all the Highlanders down there like they're more than happy to see us |
21:19 | Cdr_Hart | A-XO >[ CMO ] And they don't even know we're coming. |
21:20 | Lt_Andrews | TAC > :: chuckles:: |
21:20 | Lt_Shadow | CMO> [A-XO] it seems someone let the cat outta the bag |
21:21 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ CMO ] Are they happy to see us, or just happy? |
21:22 | Lt_Shadow | CMO>[CO] Should I grab my pipes for them? and it seems more pure happiness but something might have set it off |
21:22 | Cdr_Hart | A-XO >[ CO ] Probably the latter. |
21:24 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ CMO ] You can hold off on the pipes for now, Doctor. We almost lost you once because of them. |
21:25 | Cdr_Hart | A-XO >[ SCI ] Troy, what about the traces you detected? |
21:26 | Lt_Banning | SCI >[ A-XO ] They definitely came here, Commander. The trails became real apparent just before coming up on High, as if they de-cloaked, and then entered the planet's atmosphere. |
21:26 | Lt_Shadow | CMO>;;chuckles;;can I help it that I play them well as well as that harp? |
21:27 | CaptMcCloud | CO > :: chuckles as well:: [ CMO ] No, I guess not. :: Looks to Banning:: [ SCI ] Can you pinpoint where they went? |
21:28 | Lt_Banning | SCI >[ CO ] Affirmative, Captain. Toward the Highlander's capitol city. |
21:29 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ OPS ] Hailey, open a channel to the capitol city. |
21:29 | LtCdrWren: | OPS >[ CO ] Aye, Sir. :: taps the console, hailing them:: |
21:30 | =/\=ACTION: It takes almost ten minutes but they finally answer. =/\= |
21:30 | LtCdrWren: | OPS >[ CO ] They're answering, Sir. |
21:31 | Cdr_Hart | A-XO >[ NOIP ] Took their darned good time about it. |
21:32 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ OPS ] On screen. |
21:32 | LtCdrWren: | OPS > :: does so:: |
21:33 | Cdr_Hart | A-XO > :: looks to the screen:: |
21:36 | CaptMcCloud: | CO >+[ Highlander ]+ :: raises brows:: This is Captain McCloud of the starship Eagle. |
21:36 | Cdr_Hart | A-XO > :: raises brows:: |
21:37 | Lt_Shadow | (Are they wearing kilts and plaids?) |
21:37 | LtCdrWren: | OPS >[ CO ] They're answering, Sir./bsay @ Highlander > :: appears on the screen, but all we can see is the woman's neck and a very low, plunging neckline on what appears to be loose-fitting toga-like apparel:: Hello? |
21:38 | CaptMcCloud | CO >+[ Highlander ]+ Hello, we can... See you. |
21:39 | Cdr_Hart | A-XO >[ NOIP ] A lot of you. |
21:39 | Lt_Andrews | TAC > ::raises brows at the scene:: |
21:40 | Lt_Shadow | CMO>;;also bows to the lady;; |
21:41 | Highlander: | @ Highlander >+[ Eagle ]+ ::her voice slow and not troubled She moves around a bit, almost exposing herself on the screen:: I can't see you. |
21:41 | CaptMcCloud | CO >+[ Highlander ]+ Umm.. Look lower. |
21:42 | Cdr_Hart | A-XO > :: resists the urge to chuckle:: |
21:42 | Lt_Andrews | TAC > :: raises brows again at almost seeing a lot more of her:: |
21:44 | BHighlander: | @ Highlander >+[ Eagle ]+ :: she wiggles more, again almost exposing herself, then her face comes into view:: Oh, there you are! |
21:44 | CaptMcCloud | CO >+[ Highlander ]+ :: smiles:: Here we are. Are you in charge down there? |
21:44 | Lt_Shadow | (brb) |
21:46 | Highlander:>/font>@ | Highlander >+[ Eagle ]+ ::is not concerned at all of what she is almost exposing:: Me? the leader? No, no, not at all. The would be Dopealot. He's here somewhere. |
21:47 | Lt_Banning | SCI >[ CO ] That matches the database, Sir. |
21:48 | =/\=ACTION: A face of an older man comes into view his shoulders and chest are bare. He looks quite pleased with himself. =/\= |
21:49 | | @ Dopelot >+[ Eagle ]+ Who do we have here? |
21:49 | CaptMcCloud | CO >+[ Dopelot ]+ :: raises brows:: Are you Dopealot? |
21:51 | Dopealot: | @ D-lot >+[ CO ]+ Well... :: big smile:: Yes I am, and you would be? |
21:51 | CaptMcCloud | CO >+[ D-lot ]+ I am Captain McCLoud of the Federation starship Eagle. |
21:53 | Dopealot: | @ D-lot >+[ CO ]+ :: furrows his brows as he thinks a moment:: No you aren't. I know who commands the Eagle, and it isn't McCloud. |
21:53 | Cdr_Hart | A-XO > :: now tries to hide the smile that is threatening to spread across his face and suppress the chuckle:: |
21:54 | Lt_Andrews | TAC > :: furrows his brows, watching the screen, also checking for anything unusual:: |
21:55 | CaptMcCloud | CO >+[ D-lot ]+ That might have been Commodore Fyrstk? |
21:56 | Dopealot: | @ D-lot >+[ CO ]+ Yes! That's him! He's the Eagle's captain. |
21:56 | CaptMcCloud | CO >+[ D-lot ]+ Not any longer. He now commands Pasteur Station. I took his place. |
21:58 | Dopealot: | @ D-lot>+[ CO ]+ ::his brows go up in confusion, then his face takes on the pleased look again:: WEll, good for him! Now, what aer you doing here again? |
21:59 | CaptMcCloud | CO >+[ D-lot ]+ We'd like to visit your planet. |
22:00 | Dopealot: | @ D-lot >+[ CO ]+ Oh, well why didn't you just say so! Come on down! All are welcome. |
