Brock Dantara: ***MB***
Brock Dantara: ***We are currently on course for a distant claa M world known as Adrianaconda. The Humanoids there are at a Bronze age level of development. Contact with a civilization like this is forbidden by the Prime Directive.
Brock Dantara: We have been informed by Admiral Helm that there is a civilian expedition en route to the planet. A federation vessel, but not Starfleet.
Brock Dantara: Our orders are to find out what these people are doing and why they are going to this remote world.
Brock Dantara: ****Begin SIM*****
Brock Dantara: (AMir is at Helm)

Brock Dantara: CO>::Nods as he looks at bridge personnel:: >OPS> Begin scan for the civilian ship. Let's identify her. Might give us a clue to what they're doing.
Amir Khambatti: HELM>XO> Navigation is fully functional
Johnhooper05: OPS>CO> Yes Sir ::Startys Scan::
Dr McCoy EMH: CMO+R+XO> Sickbay here. We're all fine.
ChristinaRRivers: XO>+T+CMO> Thank you Doctor for reporting in
ChristinaRRivers: XO>CO> All stations normal sir
Angelaine Kitona: ;;makes sure scanners and long range sensors have systems priority for now;;
Brock Dantara: ***Sensors show the ship at extreme range. It is a standard transport ship.***
Mellisari: CSCI>::She sits, a little uneasily as the protoplaser healed incisions itch a little::
Johnhooper05: OPS>CO> Sir I have a ship at extream long range
Amir Khambatti: HELM> ::Looks at CSCI, knowing she's itchy.::
Johnhooper05: OPS>CO> Its a standard transport attemping to id
Mellisari: CSCI>::Turns her astronomical sensors on the contact and relays to OPS::
Johnhooper05: OPs>::revies CSci data::
Brock Dantara: **The ship's ID reads as the S.S. Assissi Schematics come up on screens****
Brock Dantara: www.shipschematics.net/startrek/images/federation/transport_carrier.jpg
Johnhooper05: OPS>CO> Its the S.S. Assissis ::puts schematics on screen::
Angelaine Kitona: CENG>OPS> "John, I've increased long range sensors, you should have agood read on the contact now."
Johnhooper05: OPS>CEng> Thank you
Angelaine Kitona: CENG>Ops> "No, problem."
Brock Dantara: CO+T+CENG> Thank you, Angie, we're getting it.
Brock Dantara: CO>::Punches up data on the ship and registry::
Brock Dantara: CO>ALL Apparently, the ship is owned by an organization called "The Galactic Church of the one truth"
ChristinaRRivers: XO>CO> Should we go on tatical alert since it is a privetly owned ship and might possibly see us as a threat sir?
Brock Dantara: CO> A terran religious society known for its rigid and atavistic ways.
Johnhooper05: OPS>CO> A starship church
Angelaine Kitona: ;;thinks to herself;; "religious fanatics, why am i not suprised?"
Brock Dantara: CO>XO> Those transports are well over 30 years old. I've seen that class before. I don;t think she'd be heavily armed.
ShaIlan Hran: TAC>::He monitors his station, and wonders if those people were searching for Edan.::
Brock Dantara: CO>XO> And we don;t appear threatening to them.
Mellisari: CSCI> XO>Running fine scans on Assissi COmmander
ChristinaRRivers: XO>CO> Never know with people these day sir. Pirets have been known to steal ships and modtify them for their own use.
Brock Dantara: *want to
ChristinaRRivers: XO>Csci> Thank you Commander
Brock Dantara: CO>XO> Caution is always wise. >HELM Bring us up to them slowly. >OPS Hail them when in range.
Johnhooper05: OPS>::Keeps a sensore lock on it::
Brock Dantara: CO> NOIP> Does anyone have any theories as to why they are going to Adrianaconda?
Mellisari: CSCI>CO>Even Reverend Wagner had his urge to convert sir...
Johnhooper05: OPS>CO> maybe start a chuch their
Brock Dantara: CO>OPS,SCI> So you think this is some sort of Crusade?
Mellisari: CSCI>CO> Data insufficient sir
Johnhooper05: OPS>CO> possablie could be their just tired of space and this planet said sure your welcom
Brock Dantara: CO>OPS> that could also be true, or they could be Pirates in disguise as Commander Rivers suggests.
Brock Dantara: CO>::Stands and paces the bridge:: Herein lies the rub......
Brock Dantara: they are not a Starfleet vessel, and therefore are not bound by the prime directive.
Mellisari: CSCI>NIP> Better pirates than fundamentalists...
Brock Dantara: Legally we can;t stop them
ChristinaRRivers: XO>CO> It's very odd sir for a religious faction to just have one vessle in the area if they are on a pilgramiage or a crusade. Normally they travel in groups. Pirets travel alone.
Mellisari: CSCI>CO> According to regulation 902.1 sir, we should keep civillians from violating the prime directive
Brock Dantara: CO>XO> Point well taken.
Johnhooper05: OPS>CO> and if their Pirates we can stop them
Angelaine Kitona: ;;Angie comes to the bridge and activates the bridge engineering station;;
Brock Dantara: CO>All> This is a young race. Any of these possibilites means contamination. And that has caused too many disasters in our history.
Angelaine Kitona: CENG>CO>"Somehow Captain, we have to stop them."
Johnhooper05: OPS>CO> Could we not stop them before they get their and say we hve warrings of pirates in the arrea
Brock Dantara: CO>CENG> Agreed. but it is how we do it that must be delicate. If those people get a look at our weapons, or see us beaming in and out, We could change their whole mindset as a race.
Mellisari: CSCI>CO>::Grinning:: Perhaps I should NOT beam down sir... start legends!
Angelaine Kitona: CENG>CO> ;;sighs;; "I know, I've seen it happen before."
Brock Dantara: CO>CENG> Explain what you've seen. I've little experience with Terran theology.
Angelaine Kitona: CENG>CO>"I don't mean Terran Theology, sir, I've seen what happens when a young race is contaminated."
Brock Dantara: CO>CENG> I meant to say tell me what happened from this contamination.
Angelaine Kitona: CENG>CO>"Besides, Terran Theology is so fragmented that it would takes weeks just to expalin it all."
ShaIlan Hran: TAC>::He ran a diagnostic on the weapon and shielding systems, after several minutes, everything registered as within percentages.::
Mellisari: CSCI>::Begins to feel a little... strange, as new hormones start to secrete::
Angelaine Kitona: CENG>CO>"Well,Sir, when I was aboard the Enterprise, they had to go rescue an anthropological observation team whose main cloaking generator burned out, the populace saw us and assumed that Captain Picard was a God. Convincing them
Brock Dantara: CO>CENG> I don;t pretend to understand any of it. My world has its religion, but it's very different than most.
Angelaine Kitona: CENG>C>"Them otherwise almost got the Captain killed."
Brock Dantara: CO>::Nods:: >CENG> I remember reading about that. Mintauka III if I recall. A Vulcanoid race. But that was an accident. this would be deliberate.
ChristinaRRivers: XO>CO> You heard the reports of a Fregine ship doing it on purpose sir from the Voyager records.
Amir Khambatti: HELM>CO> Ship is on comunications range. Coming up on them.
Angelaine Kitona: CENG>CO>"I know. Have you read the account of when Captain Kirk was forced to give flintlock rifles to a race of people just to restore the balance? The Klingons were responsible for that one."
Brock Dantara: CO>CENG> Yes, and Kirk nearly died himself.
Johnhooper05: OPS>::listens for chatter::
Mellisari: CSCI>::Turns back to her sensors... ties into targetting computers, locks on Assissi engines and power plant, feeds data to Tac and Ops::
Angelaine Kitona: CENG"CO>"True, and, he didn't like what he was forced into doing."
Brock Dantara: CO>XO> Yes I've read that too. That's just the thing Ferengi would exploit.
Johnhooper05: OPS>::recives data from CSCi::
Angelaine Kitona: CENG>CSCI>"Mel, what kind of hull plating does that ship have?"
Brock Dantara: CO>OPS Hail them.
Mellisari: CSCI>CSCI> Standard transport hull, duranium, plates... her sheilds seem to be standard for a civillian too
Johnhooper05: OPS>CO> Yers Sir ::hails the ship::
Angelaine Kitona: CENG>CSCI>"Thanks." CENG>CO>"I can adjust the scan to read through the hull, read lifesigns, etc..."
Brock Dantara: ***The ship answers the hail: "This is the Reverend Mother Helen Mohiam. Please explain why ypu are following us."****
Johnhooper05: OPS>""Puts on the scree/comm::
Brock Dantara: CO+T+RM> Greetings Reverend Mother. This is Captain Dantara of the Federaton Starship Polaris. I trust you've had a good journey so far?
Brock Dantara: RM+T+CO> Yes Captain. Thank you. I am sure you did not come out all this way to make small talk.
Angelaine Kitona: ;;looks at the viewer. something about the woman is familiar to her but, she can't put her finger on it, yet.;;
Brock Dantara: CO+T+RM> No, reverend Mother, we did not. But you are from the Federation. We have..er... Gotten some reports of piracy in the area. We notced a civilian ship, so we wanted to be sure you were safe. that is our job
Brock Dantara: Do You require any assistance?
Johnhooper05: OPS ::Looks at tyhe screen::
Brock Dantara: CO>::Sees the look on Angie's face.::
Brock Dantara: **Ops and SCI are running scans on the ship and scanning the cargo area. They are picking up readings of what appear to be cases of phaser rifles.***
Johnhooper05: OPS>CO> Sir they have what appears to be phser rifles in the cargo hole
Mellisari: CSCI>XO>I read... power coils, class XI power packs... I think they are carrying arms concur with John Commander
Brock Dantara: CO>::Gestures to Joh with his chin to mute the audio signal::
Angelaine Kitona: ;;Angie looks at her scans;; CENG>CO>"I agree with them Sir and , there's something else..."
Johnhooper05: OPS>::mutes it::
Brock Dantara: CO>CENG> Continue
Angelaine Kitona: CENG>CO>"Sir, I have the feeling she's acting under duress, something about this whole scenario isn't right. besides, I think I'm picking up Ferengi lifsigns in one of the cargo holds, A-14"
Mellisari: CSCI>::Starts.... tunes the life signs scan to Ferrengi::
Johnhooper05: OPS>::Runs acanon A14:: Dewfftly Ferigini
Brock Dantara: CO>::NOds to CENG, Then to OPS to open the signal::
Mellisari: CSCI>Concur Ferenghi sir
Johnhooper05: OPS>::Reopens comm::
Brock Dantara: CO>+R+RM> Reverend Mother, Please forgive me. ut my executive Officer has reminded me that due to the heavy reports of pirates in this area, We are under orders to inspect all Federation and aligned vessels....
Brock Dantara: *but
Mellisari: CSCI>::Fines down her scan on the Ferenghi life forms, feeds data to Ops, Command...
Mellisari: ::
Johnhooper05: OPS>::gets the Data::
Brock Dantara: I feel just terrible about this. Of course it's a waste of time to inspect your ship, as we are certain you are just a civilian transport, But orders are orders. It is for your safety, Revereand Mother. Prepare to take us
Johnhooper05: OPS>::sends a messsage to CO:: CO> I can beam the freingi out
Brock Dantara: alongside and we will beam a party over and dispense with this formality as expeditiously as possible. Dantara out.
Brock Dantara: CO>HELM >Bring us up alongside, Amir.
Johnhooper05: OPS>::prepairesd to lock onto AT::
Brock Dantara: CO>ALL You've all given excellent options. Let's see how they react to what we just told them.
Brock Dantara: CO>So we have weapons and Ferengi on a ship that is supposed to represent a religous society. What the hell is going on there?
ChristinaRRivers: XO>CO> A cover sir for an operation that is not very friendly to a young soceity.
Angelaine Kitona: ;;has an idea;; CENG>CO>"Sir, can Medical finetune the lifeform scanners to differentiate betewwn male and female?"
Dr McCoy EMH: CMO>?::Enters bridge:: Sounds like poppy tome, Captain.
Angelaine Kitona: between*
Johnhooper05: OPS>CSCI>whats on that planet
ChristinaRRivers: XO>CMO> Nice of you to join us Doctor just in time for all the fun
Brock Dantara: CO>OPS If the Ferengi are involved, Thee must be something of value in all this.
Dr McCoy EMH: CMP>XO> Fun? Sounds like a God d**n Spanish Inquisition to me.
Johnhooper05: OPS>CO> Maybe latume thise race would have no idea what they have
Mellisari: CSCI>::Shifts her long range sensors:: OPS> Scanning now... no power sources... I do not detect steel on this side of the planet... nothing in orbit on this side... scanning for Mineral deposits...
Mellisari: (( I didn't expect the SPanish inquisition! ))
Brock Dantara: ****The Assissi is attempting to move away form Polaris.***
Johnhooper05: OPS<CO> The ships attempty to move
Angelaine Kitona: CENG>CO>"Tractor beam powered and ready, Sir."
Brock Dantara: CO>ALL Ok, Looks like the "fun" is starting. >HELM Stay with them.
Brock Dantara: CO>CENG> Keep it on standby and be ready.
Amir Khambatti: HELM>CO> I'm getting the impression they don;t want to be inspected.
Dr McCoy EMH: CMO>HELM> You think so?
Angelaine Kitona: ;;angie is frowning then, snaps her fingers;; CENG>CO>"That's it! I knew I had seen her before."
Brock Dantara: CO>CENG> Explain.
Angelaine Kitona: CENG>CO>"She visited my Mother about six weeks before I joined the Polaris, she was looking for new novices. Mom told her go ahead but, she had a woman with her, her secoond, a woman named Marta. Where is she?"
Mellisari: CSCI>OPS> Nothing of value on the planet so far...
Brock Dantara: CO>CENG> Another mystery. Ready tractor. >TAC> Shallan, assemble an inspection team.
Angelaine Kitona: CENG>CO>"Marta was never awat from the Reverend Mother's side while traveling, never."
