“So am I correct in my inferramce that we currently have some oind of incorporeal life form running about the ship? And that we have no way of knowing the nature of the relationship it has with the corporeal Gravians?”

Cochrane, CO

OOC: I’m confused. Is this before or after the symbiots get loose in sickbay?

“I’m going to have to say yes Captain. We had some weird fluctuations with the transporters, every time we transported one of the Gravians up from the surface. It was as if there was a large mass detected in the pattern buffer, but it cleared after only milliseconds. We couldn’t determine the exact origin, but we were seeing strange energy patterns in the buffer. The closest we could match it up to was a race called the Metron’s.

“It did seem like whatever it was was trying to communicate though. We were getting some weird feedback through the speakers in the transporter room.”

Up next Luke quickly skimmed through the mental notes he had committed to memory before the meeting, notes that the previous Chief of Security had left him. “Before Mr. Logan was called away he was dealing with some murders, they appear to be premeditated by a group known as ‘Blanks’ the difference between them and our Gravian friends. The Gravians have two souls whereas the blanks have only one. Currently, we are only monitoring the situation as to not interfere with local laws but this could become a problem down the line if they continue, and further to that the murders appear to happen at night. The locals suggest that non-blank locals can not operate at might suggesting that the murders must be either blank or something else.”

• Lieutenant Luke Wyatt

OCC: I am just filling in to give information so we are magically going to pretend I left this thread and I am back in the sickbay for that frantic message calling for help but before I go…~ Kate

Jasmine listened to Wyatt and tapped her finger on the edge of the coffee mug she was holding. “Instead of murder could it be more of a missing person thing? I am not security but what if the Blank as they call it just can’t find its way back home to its host meaning the Gravian it left. If neither has a memory of the other it would be like two people with amnesia trying to find their way back to their home. The issue is maybe there is some biological or physiological parameters that if you don’t find the right host the body rejects it.” Her theory was just that but nothing so far seemed to led her to hope it was just some kind of crazy mix up.

“I have to get back to sick bay. If you need anything else let me know. Sir,” she nodded to the captain before heading to the door and back to her patients in sickbay.

Lt Jasmine Wynter CMO

At rhat moment, Wyatt’s comms activated. =^= Security to Sickbay! =^= came a frantic voice.

Medical

Luke looked to the Captain and gave him an apologetic look as he tapped his comm badge. =^=Wyatt here, we’re in our way.=^= he then looked around the table before looking back to the Captain, “Apologies sir but it would seem I’m needed else where”

Luke stood and gave one last glance around the room before leaving.

• Lieutenant Luke Wyatt

Raye watched as one by one the departments checked in then departed. It never ceased to amaze her how a simple meeting in the middle of the evening could still be riddled with issues. It was one of the great things she liked about being out here. Almost nothing was easy or boring. A small smile crept over her lips at the ‘normalcy’ of it all.

Raye
Diplomat

Cochrane looked around thr table. “Mr. Darach, work with Security and try to find these ‘others’. Get with Science as well and see if we can communicate somehow. I’m tired of having half information. Now, foes anyone else have anything pertinent before we adjurn?”

Cochrane, CO

“I’m guessing they’ve found us already Captain,” Walker said as he watched Wyatt run off to sickbay. “But we’ll find them.”

Pushing himself back from the table, Walker was ready to move once the Captain let them go.

WO Darach - COO

OOC: Sorry everyone, I’m working between two stores right now an people aren’t showing up for their shifts…ugh. This is me playing catch up.

IC:
Just then the Captain’s badge bee[ed with an incoming message. =/\= Rollo to the Captain. I was in sickbay and I saw their auras, Sir. The symbiot that lives inside the Gravinians. They all went in different directions, but I’m following one of them. I might lose it because whatever it is, it can pass through the bulkheads. Right now I’m on deck 3 in corridor 4-A. Put a trace on my com badge and have security and science find me.=/\=

—Rollo, CNS

Not long after the first message, another one came through, =/\=Captain, Rollo here. I’m in the recovery ward. Two of the energies are here—wait…they just passed through a biobed and a bulkhead, but I swear one of them looked at me. Also, important point—there are four energies, not three. We only have three Gravinians on board so where did the fourth one come from? Are security and science on the way?=/\=

—Rollo, CNS

=/\= K’sang to Rollo, I’m on my way.. Try to contain one in a field and tell the computer to calibrate shields with similar ultra violet lights found radiating off of the systems star. I don’t know if it’ll work, but these things become active when not in sunlight. We might be able to make them docile using the same theory. =/\=

K’sang, CSO

Cochrane looked around and said simply “Everyone. Establishing communication with the symbiotes is the first priority. K’sang, meet with the Counselor, help her find and contain our new ‘guests’… but no hostile action, understood? We have until the Graviens wake up to figure out the other side of this story. I’ll be on the bridge. Dismissed and let’s get some results as quick as we can.”

Cochrane, CO

Faye exchanged a look with Kiama. Everything had spun kind of quickly, but they had also skipped over the science report entirely. Her part wasn’t as exciting as others but it was a big piece of Naim’s find. “So… no one cares about the old piece of likely Romulan tech we found? Cool, we’ll just… do some lab tests on it?” she suggested to Kiama.

~Faye Calloway, Data Specialist

Cochrane looked at Calloway and said “What tech and where was it found. Lieutenant? And does it have any bearing on the lifeforms currently running around this ship?”

Cochrane, CO

Kiama had just been about to answer Faye, when the Captain asked his questions. So instead she turned towards him and replied evenly, “While taking soil samples I found a twisted piece of metal about this size.” She moved her hands to show the dimensions while talking. “The initial scan I ran showed that while not the source of the radiation issues we saw with the crops, it was affected by radiation and that it’s nature is not unlike that released from a singularity. And what is more: the closest match - and we’re talking 81% - is that from the detonation of an early Romulan war bird.” She looked meaningfully at the Captain, her eyebrows slightly raised as she finished, “Which raises the questions: When were the Romulans here? What were they doing here? What caused the explosion of their warbird? And what happened to the crew?”
