❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: ::on the Bridge in the chair::
❙ Ens Gaavr or MCPO Calder: Gaavr > :: at comms ::
❙❙ Karlie Waters ❙ Mira Strauss: ::sleeping in her quarters::
❙ Ens Gaavr or MCPO Calder: Calder > :: Walking the ship ::
❙❙ Karlie Waters ❙ Mira Strauss: Mira) ::at science station, running diagnostics::
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: Anything on the other ship?

LCARS: Disguised Alien) ::looks to the human called 'Timmy' on the other ship:: I hope they get the member and call us back or your life is our's...

❙❙ Lt Valarig - <<<● CPO Portman: Nothing that I can tell thus far unfortunately.
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: They're probably waiting for us to make a move.
❙ Ens Gaavr or MCPO Calder: Gaavr > :: Looking up ::
❙❙ Lt Valarig - <<<● CPO Portman: ++Waters++ Please join us on the Bridge.
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: We need a game plan and quick.
❙❙ Lt Valarig - <<<● CPO Portman: Need her up here, I also got a message from one of my contacts. It may not be the same Aliens but could be.

LCARS
​Disguised Alien) ::begins to make 'Timmy' bleed...:: :Time is counting down, boy. ::shows him the vials:: This will help us in our quest as we just need her.

❙❙ Karlie Waters ❙ Mira Strauss: ::has her comm turned off, as she still sleeping::
Mira) Commander, I'm reading a life sign on that ship starting to drop... ::she looks wary::
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: ::looks over::
How bad?
❙❙ Karlie Waters ❙ Mira Strauss: Mira) ::reads her console:: it's decreasing slowly... I cannot tell much more than that.
❙❙ Lt Valarig - <<<● CPO Portman: Vendorians, shapeshifters. I wasn't sure, but her parents have been saved but now her brother is missing and they think the same ones took him. Its some vendetta against her family. ::calls for Karlie again::
❙❙ Karlie Waters ❙ Mira Strauss: q) ::wakens to her screen from the enemy, using the parents as bait:: no, no no.... ::she curls up beginning to cry, not having turned back on her communicator::
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: +Calder+ Bridge to Calder. Report to the Bridge.
❙❙ Lt Valarig - <<<● CPO Portman: Permission to go check on her and get her up here, sir.
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: ::looks at Richter and nods:: Granted
❙❙ Lt Valarig - <<<● CPO Portman: ::nods to Natalie to take over and heads to the lift.::
Portman> ::moves over:: Shapeshifters?
❙ Ens Gaavr or MCPO Calder: Calder > +bridge+ On my way
Calder > :: Appears on the bridge :: Commander.
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: ::looks at Calder::
❙❙ Karlie Waters ❙ Mira Strauss: Mira) ::raises an eyebrow:: that's a first for me. I wouldn't be surprised though. It's a vast universe. ::she looked back at her console:: it's dropped more, probably a tad faster now... we better hurry in getting her up here.
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards
We have a situation. There is someone on the ship in danger. I'm considering a rescue party. But before we do...
❙❙ Lt Valarig - <<<● CPO Portman: ::Steps out and then into their quarters:: We need you on the bridge. ::he did notice the crying, reaching for her:: Your parents are same, come on.
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: ::he turns to Natalie:: What are their protection and armaments?
❙❙ Karlie Waters ❙ Mira Strauss: ::hugs him:: they're safe?
❙ Ens Gaavr or MCPO Calder: Calder > Who is in danger?
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: ::has a feeling they will need to have a shootout so he wanted to be ready::
❙❙ Lt Valarig - <<<● CPO Portman: Portman> Um. Lets see.
Yes, I'll explain the rest later. ::hugs her:: Come on. Expediency is required right now, love.
❙❙ Lt Valarig - <<<● CPO Portman: Portman> They look pretty close. Disruptors, some sort of launchers, shields.
❙❙ Karlie Waters ❙ Mira Strauss: ::She grabs his hand:: what's the rush? ::not knowing where her brother was::
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: We don't know who Calder. But it is human and the biosigns are dropping.
❙❙ Lt Valarig - <<<● CPO Portman: We're being followed and got a message I'm pretty sure they were talking about you. There's a human on there also.
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: ::hears Natalie:: Hmmm
❙❙ Karlie Waters ❙ Mira Strauss: Mira) ::looks a tad worried.:: I can't make out the other signs on that vessel.
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: So we do outgun them.
❙ Ens Gaavr or MCPO Calder: Calder > Bioscans dropping?
❙❙ Karlie Waters ❙ Mira Strauss: No.. noo, tell me its not him... ::she said as they stepped into the turbo::
❙❙ Lt Valarig - <<<● CPO Portman: Portman> Well Klingon disruptors are mean, we already know that, so maybe or maybe not.
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: ::nods:: So it depends on theirs.
Could be as mean as the Klingons or... nah
❙❙ Lt Valarig - <<<● CPO Portman: ::steps out onto the Bridge with Karlie::

Portman> Yeah, Calder. There's a human on the ship and their bioscans keep fluctuating.
❙❙ Karlie Waters ❙ Mira Strauss: Mira) You mean dropping. it's not going up at all according to my readings...
❙❙ Lt Valarig - <<<● CPO Portman: Portman> Or..that.
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: ::sees Richter and Karlie::
❙ Ens Gaavr or MCPO Calder: Calder > :: Still confused :: Have the doctor check each person?
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: ::looks at Calder:: What they mean Calder is the person is slowly dying.
❙❙ Lt Valarig - <<<● CPO Portman: ::just holds a hand up for Nat to stay there for now::
❙❙ Karlie Waters ❙ Mira Strauss: Who do they have over there? ::Karlie asks as she steps on the bridge::
❙ Ens Gaavr or MCPO Calder: Calder > Want me to search the ship then?
❙❙ Karlie Waters ❙ Mira Strauss: Mira) He's on the other ship... ::she quips to Calder::
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: That's where we are finding out where exactly he is. So we can beam the team in and get you and that person out.
❙❙ Lt Valarig - <<<● CPO Portman: The Shen'Rarth said they got your parents, but they did say now their intel says your Brother is missing.

LCARS: ​Disguised Voice) ::hails the Ares::

❙❙ Lt Valarig - <<<● CPO Portman: Portman> We're being hailed.
❙❙ Karlie Waters ❙ Mira Strauss: ::shook her head:: he's on the way to them, has to be. he's much wiser than me to get in trouble. He knows the engines well..
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards ::sighs and faces the view screen:: On screen
❙❙ Lt Valarig - <<<● CPO Portman: If its not him over there, then who do they have... get down. ::moves her with him over behind the situation table::
Portman> ::puts it up::

LCARS: ​Disguised voice) ::shows Timmy:: His life is slowly fading. Your science officer is probably already discovering this. You have less time to find your crew member and transport to us. ::cuts off comms::

❙❙ Lt Valarig - <<<● CPO Portman: Portman> Well that was quick.
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: ::stands from the chair::
❙❙ Karlie Waters ❙ Mira Strauss: ::she turns towards the screen to see her brother as soon it ends and hits the floor with a no moan::
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: ::looks at Calder:: Get your best men ready.
::looks at Karlie:: We will get him back.
❙ Ens Gaavr or MCPO Calder: Calder > Aye
❙❙ Karlie Waters ❙ Mira Strauss: I.. have to go over.. ::she says as she goes to get up:: It's me they want... See, who all they'll accept... We don't want to truly loose... ::she bits her lip::
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: ::thinks of a strategy and snaps his fingers::

❙ Ens Gaavr or MCPO Calder: Calder > :: Goes to get his team ready ::
❙❙ Lt Valarig - <<<● CPO Portman: That's not an option, Karlie.
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: I got an idea. It's tricky but we can possibly pull it off.
❙❙ Karlie Waters ❙ Mira Strauss: They'll kill him and anyone that goes there, except me. ::she shook her head:: it's the option we need to save that man's life.
Mira) I'm ears.
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: I ain't sending Karlie alone. That is for damn sure. Karlie, you will have an escort and hopefully we will get them to exchange her for the boy.
But once that happens, we can quickly beam you all back, disable the ship and then haul ass.
So we have everyone back on the ship.
❙❙ Karlie Waters ❙ Mira Strauss: ::nods:: You need to discuss with them... Tell them, I'm too scared to go there alone.
❙❙ Lt Valarig - <<<● CPO Portman: That will remove the element of surprise.
❙❙ Karlie Waters ❙ Mira Strauss: If I show up with others unannounced, they could kill him.
❙❙ Lt Valarig - <<<● CPO Portman: Unless ::looks to Edwards:: You literally meant what she just said. They know we're coming.
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: They don't though. They think we are gonna bring just Karlie over.
We could try to explain to them she needs an escort. Maybe two.
+Calder+ Edwards to Calder
❙❙ Karlie Waters ❙ Mira Strauss: Mira) ::looks pale:: vitals have dropped very low...
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: We gotta move now.
Are we going with the idea or what? Cause I am all for other suggestions.
❙❙ Lt Valarig - <<<● CPO Portman: We don't have time now so we can just improv on the fly over there.
❙❙ Karlie Waters ❙ Mira Strauss: ::starts to feel hurt and anger:: We don't have much choices... hail them and see if two would be fine with me.
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: Hail them
::walks to the screen::
❙❙ Lt Valarig - <<<● CPO Portman: Portman> Well if not, why not say fine and beam two or more over anyway in the adjacent section. Be very quiet like. ::hails them::

LCARS: ​Disguised Voice) ::answers hail::

❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: We have who you are looking for. She is ready to come aboard.

LCARS: Disguised Voice) Good. We will have our doctor and security to greet her. Any other surprise, we will have her brother there with a gun at his head.

❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: In that case, will it be ok if she has an escort also? She asked for permission. Plus, she is more comfortable with others than going alone.

LCARS: Disguised Voice) Two. No more or he dies for sure. I cannot guarantee the safety of your crew, if you surprise us with more. ::end comm::
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: Two is just what we need.

❙ Ens Gaavr or MCPO Calder: Calder > +Edwards+ Calder here
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: +Calder+ Calder, keep your team on hold. I am gonna have you join Karlie. Meet her at the Transporter Room.
::looks at Karlie and Richter::
❙❙ Lt Valarig - <<<● CPO Portman: We're going to be fine and so will her. ::nods to Edwards, taking it as for him to go, since it hadn't actually been mentioned verbally:: Come on. ::taking her hand again::
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: Meet Calder at the Transporter Room and... be ready to grab and go.
❙ Ens Gaavr or MCPO Calder: Calder > :: Goes to the transporter room ::
❙❙ Karlie Waters ❙ Mira Strauss: ::travels with Valarig to the transporter room::

LCARS: Alien Vessel) ::At the arrival, guards are prepared as instructed. The doctor waits with two vials to be quick with the anticipating patient. Timmy looks scared with being tied and a gun pointed at his head::

❙❙ Lt Valarig - <<<● CPO Portman: Portman> They are over, keeping track in conjunction with Strauss. Maybe Richter thought to leave his communicator open in his pocket.
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: Keep a lock at all times. Hopefully his communicator is on so when know the go ahead.

LCARS: ​Pause Sim

❙❙ Lt Valarig - <<<● CPO Portman: ::Paws::
Portman> ::Paws::
❙❙ Karlie Waters ❙ Mira Strauss: ::pause::
Mira) ::pause::
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: Very good work everyone
This just got very exciting
Anyone have any questions?
❙❙ Lt Valarig - <<<● CPO Portman: None from me, I already figure we're unarmed, or if not we've got them hidden.
❙❙ Karlie Waters ❙ Mira Strauss: Hidden and none from me
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: Goodie
TBS will be immediately when we start.
❙❙ Lt Valarig - <<<● CPO Portman: Course Richter's gonna have a dagger on him also. :slight_smile:
Roger that, sir.
❙❙❙ Commander Matthew Edwards: Sweet.
Well, hope you all have a good week. Stay safe. See you all next week.

LCARS: Dismissed
