I have a hunch about this ship we've found. Geoff Mercida: ::pulls up the report and looks over it:: We determined it was something external and the hypothesis was that the ship that was found fleeing Vulcan was involved.

AlexKilgarran: ACTION> THE LEAD SHIP HAS ENTERED THE SIVAOAN SYSTEM AND IS MOVING TO TAKE UP POSITION AROUND ONE OF THE MOONS Chance Bennigan: ::smiles:: excellent joymudd: I'd want Starfleet Intelligence working on who could design and build that ship. scurrdi: +Starseeker+ Do you mind pretending to be an intruder for a bit? Rikka Kilgarran: Are you sure Daddy won't get mad, Mr Starfire? ::wants to play, but worried:: MoonshadowsToNEN: +Shipwide+ ::Looks at board:: Search patterns complete.. nicely done teams. Secure from alert status joymudd: And I'd want support before taking them on brute force, if the last encounter wasn't decisive. scurrdi: ::shakes his head:: No no, this game is under the orders of the Commander so were ok, want to know the rules? StarseekerToNEN: +Starfire+ Pretend to be an intruder, Chief? Why, if I amy ask, Sir? joymudd: :: Sighs :: But then again, not my call. Rikka Kilgarran: Sure! Rikka Kilgarran: Davey> ::nods:: Mara Ryell: ::turns to Chance::: Sir, I think you'd better come and see this. They've taken up a position around one of the moons. Drizzella GL0n: ::::looks over and notices Mr Bennigan's Cheshire grin, raising an eyebrow:::: Chance Bennigan: ::steps away from the security console and walks up to tactical:: Chance Bennigan: Is that moon inhabited? MoonshadowsToNEN: ((SHows a Cheshire grin of her own and fades away:) scurrdi: +Star+ The security teams are running drills in order to practice finding an intruder onboard the ship. I need you in about 10 minutes to hide yourself and avoid all security personell, got it? scurrdi: ::sits down and motions Rikka and Davey to him:: Alright then, here's the game. AlexKilgarran: Have you got anything for me Gina? StarseekerToNEN: +Starfire+ Understood, Chief. Do you have any other orders, Sir? Mara Ryell: :::scans the system::: No, but this planet is. :::brings up a display on the main viewer of the moon and the planet:::: Rikka Kilgarran: ::listening, along with Davey:: scurrdi: The security people are gonna be running around the ship looking for you two, your job is to hide from them and don't let them catch you. Take advantage of the computer for directions if you need them. The longer you last the more scurrdi: you win. Mara Ryell: :::looks over to Joy::: >Chance> I agree with the Counselor. We should warn them and call Starfleet for backup. Drizzella GL0n: Yeoman Anderson>:::hesitating::::>Alex> Nothing of IMMEDIATE importance sir....you are aware of the exercises taking place in Security and the status on the Bridge... scurrdi: You'll win the grand prize if you can manage to sneak onto the bridge without getting caught and pulling on Moon's tail, gently though. ::winks:: Rikka Kilgarran: ::giggles:: MoonshadowsToNEN: >To chance>Security has stood down sir... sharp crew. Who was your last COS? scurrdi: +Star+ Just don't hurt anyone Doc. AlexKilgarran: :::raises a brow::: Whats on your mind Gina.... Rikka Kilgarran: Are we allowed to sneak around any way we can? scurrdi: ::looks at Rikka:: What did you have in mind? Floating? StarseekerToNEN: +Starfire+ Understood, Chief. Starseeker out. Chance Bennigan: ::ponders the suggestion:: If we warn them, then we guarantee to give away our knowledge of their presence, the question is, will the ship retreat to form a new plan, or be jarred into attack Rikka Kilgarran: ::nods:: And shielding, and I can unlight my shield a little and be kind of hard to see... scurrdi: ::nods understandingly:: You can use whatever way possible since our intruders may be able to do the same thing. Just don't hurt them though ok? Rikka Kilgarran: Davey> ::can't make unlight, but would LOVE for Rikka to teach him:: Mara Ryell: :::looks at the viewer::: Sir, they could begin an attack at any moment. Sooner or later they're going to know we're here. I'd rather take the initiative than sit around and watch them do so. We have to assume hostile intent. Rikka Kilgarran: ::nods again:: And they won't hurt us, right? Drizzella GL0n: Yeoman Anderson>Alex> Geof.....Mr Mercida....it's private sir...he and I need to talk.. scurrdi: Of course not, they won't be using weapons. Chance Bennigan: +Alex+ Captain we have a situation here AlexKilgarran: Very well.... scurrdi: ((has the Lovisa come into the system or no?)) AlexKilgarran: *Chance* Report Commander....
