| 21:01 | CmdrDutcher | Crew is present and at attention, Captain! ::AA:: |
| 21:01 | CaptMcCloud | Excellent, and thank you, Commander. |
| 21:02 | ... | Good evening, All. Good to see you, and I hope you have had a nice Labor Day weekend. |
| 21:02 | .. | Have you read the brief, and do we have any questions? |
| 21:02 | Cdr_Hart | Brief read, no questions, Skipper. |
| 21:02 | Lt_Andrews | Yes, and no, Sir. |
| 21:02 | LtAmeliaMoore | Read and no questions, Captain. |
| 21:03 | CmdrDutcher | Yes and No, Sir. |
| 21:03 | Lt_Banning | y/n, Sir. |
| 21:03 | CaptMcCloud | Great. Let's... |

| 21:04 | CaptMcCloud CO > :: on the bridge, once again moving about the different stations:: |
| 21:04 | Cdr_Hart | @ CENG > :: with Dutcher, talking to Mallory:: |
| 21:05 | Lt_Andrews | TAC > :: with Amelia:: |
| 21:05 | CmdrDutcher | @ XO >[ QM ] Barclay? Are you serious? |
| 21:05 | Lt_Banning | SCI > :: still on the bridge, as well:: |
| 21:05 | LtAmeliaMoore | Nurse >[ TAC ] Rob, do you think I should have just done what she asked? |
| 21:06 | Q.Mallory | @ QM >[ XO ] :: gives her a peculiar look:: Yes. Why do you ask? |
| 21:07 | Cdr_Hart | @ CENG > :: smirks:: |
| 21:07 | CmdrDutcher | @ XO >[ QM ] Not to put to fine a point on things, but... how do I say this? ::looks at Hart for help:: |
| 21:09 | ... | @ XO >[ QM/CENG ] I guess that does explain a lot though. Reg was always a bit... peculiar. |
| 21:09 | Lt_Andrews | TAC >[ Nurse ] You should do what you are comfortable with. Like getting something to eat. :: smiles:: |
| 21:10 | LtAmeliaMoore | Nurse >[ TAC ] ::Smiles:: That actually sounds like a nice idea. |
| 21:10 | =/\=ACTION: Suddenly, on the bridge, another figure materializes. It is a male, dressed totally in black, with a cloak, worn like a cape. He looks, exactly like McCloud. =/\= |
| 21:11 | Cdr_Hart | @ CENG >[ XO ] I've never met the man, but someof his... doings are legendary. |
| 21:12 | CaptMcCloud | CO > :: turns toward the new arrival, and his jaw almost drops:: |
| 21:12 | CmdrDutcher | (ut oh!!!) |
| 21:12 | Lt_Banning | SCI > :: looks at the new arrival, and his jaw does drop:: |
| 21:14 | CmdrDutcher | @ XO >[ QM/CENG ] Ok, so enough of that. I want to try to get you out of here and access that base. I am going to speak to the authorities here and see what I can do. |
| 21:14 | R of McCloud | Wizard >[ CO ] So, it is true. ::narrows his eyes at his double:: |
| 21:15 | LtAmeliaMoore | ( where's security when you need them? LOL ) |
| 21:15 | Q.Mallory | @ QM >[ XO ] Good luck with that. They won't let you anywhere near that base. |
| 21:16 | CmdrDutcher | @ XO >[ QM ] Well, we can try. ::Stands up and heads towards the door:: |
| 21:16 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ Wizard ] :: moves toward the center seat:: I do wish you people would request permission before boarding my ship. |
| 21:17 | R of McCloud | Wizard >[ CO ] Would you have granted me entrance, had I requested it? :: smirks:: |
| 21:18 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ Wizard ] Possibly. I thought you were Public Enemy #1 in these parts. |
| 21:18 | CmdrDutcher | @ XO> ::knocks on the door to get someone's attention:: I want to speak to whoever is in charge. |
| 21:18 | Q. Mallory | @ QM >[ XO ] This should be interesting. |
| 21:20 | CmdrDutcher | @ XO> ::looks back at Mallory and shrugs:: >[QM] We'll see. |
| 21:20 | R of McCloud | Wizard >[ CO ] Oh, I am, and I was waiting til that wretched woman left your ship before I came aboard. |
| 21:21 | CmdrDutcher | @ XO >[ Guard ] I wish to speak with the minister about a little proposition. |
| 21:22 | Lt_Banning | SCI >[ Wizard ] How is it they do not know you are here now? |
| 21:23 | LtAmeliaMoore | Nurse >[ TAC ] But shouldn't you be back on the bridge now that the... magic police... have left? |
| 21:23 | ... | Nurse >[ TAC ] I like our Dutcher a lot better! |
| 21:25 | CmdrDutcher | @ XO> ::waits for the guard to either deny the request outright or bring her to see Crusher. |
| 21:26 | BevCrusher | @ M.o.M. >[ XO ] :: opens the door, and enters. U.S. Dutcher could be seen in the dinly lit corridor:: Are you convinced of his lunacy? |
| 21:26 | Lt_Andrews | TAC >[ Nurse ] I'll definitely agree with that. |
| 21:28 | CmdrDutcher | @ XO >[ M.o.M. ] Actually, No, I am not. And I would like to take him from here and explore his base on the moon. |
| 21:28 | R of McCloud | Wizard >[ SCI ] ::glances to the man, as if he is beneath him, then looks back to McCloud:: I have my ways of blocking them, from detecting me. I had to see... your captain, for myself. |
| 21:30 | LtAmeliaMoore | Nurse >[ TAC ] Should you ask the captain if you are needed back on the bridge? or Maybe I can blink up there and ask ::giggles at what she believes is a joke:: |
| 21:32 | Lt_Andrews | TAC >[ Nurse ] Uhhh... No. Don't go blinking anywhere, unless absolutely necessary. There is the Beta Shift tac officer up there now. |
| 21:33 | CaptMcCloud | CO > :: narrows his eyes:: [ Wizard ] You've seen me. Now what? |
| 21:33 | LtAmeliaMoore | Nurse >[ TAC ] ::Sighs and lowers her head:: I did get you in trouble didn't I? |
| 21:34 | BevCrusher | @ M.o.M. >[ XO ] That is out of the question. He was on that moon base illegally, and as a result, we have lost a magical being. |
| 21:35 | Lt_Andrews | TAC >[ Nurse ] ::takes her in his arms:: No. You didn't. I just... want to have dinner with you, that's all. |
| 21:36 | R of McCloud | Wizard >[ CO ] Well, you could stand with me, while I seize control of Earth, and this entire region. |
| 21:37 | CmdrDutcher | @ XO >[ M.o.M. ] And did you even try to get that person back or just assume he was gone forever? I'll bet you just ignored anything Dr Mallory said just because he isn't magigal and then shoved him in this poor excuse of livable conditions. |
| 21:37 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ Wizard ] :: shakes his head:: That is not who I am, and not what we do. We are just here to find a way back home. |
| 21:38 | Lt_Banning | SCI > :: watches the two McClouds:: |
| 21:39 | LtAmeliaMoore | Nurse >[ TAC ] ::wraps arms tightly around him:: In that case, Okay, Dinner it is. |
| 21:40 | BevCrusher | @ M.o.M >[ XO ] :: narrows her eyes at Dutcher:: And, just who do you think you are, talking to me like I am one of your junior officers? |
| 21:40 | Cdr_Hart | @ CENG > :: raises brows, and exchanges a look with Mallory:: |
| 21:41 | Lt_Andrews | TAC >[ Nurse ] ::holds her tightly:: I thought you'd never ask. :: smiles:: |
| 21:42 | R of McCloud | Wizard >[ CO ] I could simply take this ship, if you do not wish to cooperate. |
| 21:42 | CmdrDutcher | @ XO >[ M.o.M. ] ::Puts hands on her hips:: Someone who is terrified of anyone different then they are or who has different ideas. I would have thought such an ::makes little air quotes: Enlightened People... would welcome diversity and knowledge, But I guess I was wrong. |
| 21:43 | CaptMcCloud | Co >[ Wizard ] :: stands in front of the command chair:: Why? What good is this ship to you. Can't you just travel wherever you wish? |
| 21:44 | LtAmeliaMoore | ( I so want to say... "What does God need with a space ship?") |
| 21:44 | BevCrusher | @ M.o.M. >[ XO ] You have just overstayed your welcome. :: raises her hands, and Alli, and Tom, find themselves back aboard the Eagle, on the bridge:: |
| 21:46 | CmdrDutcher | XO> :wears and then steps back seeing two McClouds:: |
| 21:46 | | Wizard >[ CO ] Your weapons could decimate their cities before they'd even have a chance to react. :: looks to the two new arrivals:: [ XO/CENG ] Out stayed your welcome, eh? |
| 21:46 | CaptMcCloud | (LOL) |
| 21:47 | Cdr_Hart | CENG > :: appears on the bridge, then double-takes at the double of the captain:: |
| 21:48 | CmdrDutcher | XO >[ CO ] ::looks between the two:: Seems she did not like my assessment of her accommodations. What the hell does HE want? ::tips a thumb towards the Wizard:: |
| 21:48 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ Wizard ] You will have to dispose of me, first. My ship will not be used for any such thing. |
| 21:50 | LtAmeliaMoore | Nurse >[ TAC ] Why do I feel like we should head to the bridge? ::shakes her head slightly:: Must be feeling guilty. |
| 21:50 | R of McCloud | Wizard >[ CO ] Then so be it. :: raises his hand and from his wand, fires a bolt at McCloud:: |
| 21:51 | CmdrDutcher | XO >[ NOIP ] NO!!! Computer, Intruder alert, Bridge. Alert Medical! |
| 21:51 | CaptMcCloud | CO > :: instinctly raises his hands and moves away from the blast. Is amazed, when the energy from the wizard's wand strikes an invisible barrier:: |
| 21:51 | *** Lt_Banning quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client) |
| 21:52 | COMPUTER | I do not detect any intruder. |
| 21:52 | CmdrDutcher | XO> ::blinks... unsure of what just happened and mutters:: Of course not! |
| 21:54 | ... | XO >[ Wizard ] I think you have also outlived your welcome. |
| 21:54 | R of McCloud | Wizard > :: simply smiles:: [ CO ] So, you can defend yourself. Now, stand with me, or die with them. ::indicates the image of the Earth, on the screen:: |
| 21:55 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ Wizard ] Get off my ship. ::brings his own hands up:: |
| 21:56 | R of McCloud | Wizard >[ CO ] So be it. I suppose there is only room for one of us, in this universe. :: waves his hand and disappears:: |
| 21:56 | *** Lt_Banning joined #usseagle |
| 21:57 | CmdrDutcher | XO >[ CO ] Well, he wasn't very nice. And what just happened? |
| 21:57 | =/\=ACTION: Rayne of McCloud disappears, and Beverly Crusher reappears. =/\= |
| 21:57 | BevCrusher | M.o.M >[ CO ] What is happening. I felt... Xenexian magic. |
| 21:58 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ M.o.M ] And that goes for you, as well. :: gives just a thought and Crusher is pushed backwards:: Get the HELL off my ship. You want to come aboard, you ask! |
| 21:58 | CmdrDutcher | XO >[ M.o.M. ] Oh great! How about you mind your own business for a change! |
| 21:59 | BevCrusher | M.o.M > :: her eyes widen, with a hint of fear, and she disappears:: |

| 22:01 | CmdrDutcher | Interesting, get the Captain mad and he does something unbelievable! |
| 22:01 | CaptMcCloud | Well, that played out well. And the timing seemed to work out, despite my little computer issues, here. |
| 22:02 | ... | We will pick up here, in two weeks. Next Wednesday is my Board meeting for the Coast Guard Aux. Do we have any questions to this point? |
| 22:03 | CmdrDutcher | Maybe now they'll let Mallory off the hook and let us head to the moon base. LOL |
| 22:03 | ... | No questions! |
| 22:03 | Cdr_Hart | So, the cappy has magical abilities too? Where's mine? |
| 22:03 | LtAmeliaMoore | I have no questions either, Sir |
| 22:03 | Lt_Andrews | No questions, Sir. |
| 22:03 | Lt_Banning | No, Sir. |
| 22:04 | CmdrDutcher | You are a magician with the engines Commander |
| 22:04 | CaptMcCloud | ::chuckles:: There is your magic, Tom. I hope you all have a good two weeks. Please stay safe, and take care of yourselves. |
