As the party walked down the Northern trail the circle of trees eventually ended and there was a large circular building ahead of them. As they came closer they could see several settlers and miners who entered and exited in mining and settler clothes, mainly tunic, pants and boots. None wore any sign of authority on them and none of the settlers seemed to pay any attention to the Starfleet crew. The majority of them were human but there were other races such as Bajoran and Riisan. The path that the crew walked on lead right up to the main doors of the building.

Lance raised an eyebrow “Odd you you would think a bunch of people in Starfleet uniforms would stick out like a sore thumb.... Apprantly we don’t even rate a second glance.”

Lt Malone CSO

‘’How odd’’ Hunter replied ‘’Its like we are invisible! Not exactly the eagerness of seeing us here to help .”

Hunter Dr.

“Not necessarily ,”Eros interjected. “This is a Federation mining facility at times. They likely get Federation ships here all the time, bring in supplier and equipment, personnel coming and going, inspectors making sure everything is on the up and up. . . . .”

Glen wasn’t sure himself. Both Lance and Eros had made good points. “I don’t wish to startle them, and I’m not sure about their lack of interest in us either. I think that if we make ourselves open and available, then when they are ready to receive us, they’ll talk to us when they are ready. There doesn’t appear to be anything very peculiar going on here.”

Stella had found herself standing next to Doctor Hunter. Not on purpose but there she was. She watched curiously as the whole scene before her unfolded. Or appeared not to. Perhaps she was missing something? She so wanted to ask a question of someone. This was all so new to her. The closest person to her though was Hunter. And she knew his type. If you looked at them too long, they would get ideas. Finally, though she could contain herself no longer as she leaned over to Hunter and whispered loud enough for him to hear.

With that small smile of his he replied, ‘’Well usually they came at us with forks and knives and we have to run for our lives ‘’.

” Excuse me?” Stella asked him. ” Doctor Humbug? Is this the way away teams usually run? Do you usually kind of stand around in people’s front yard watching them? Shouldn’t someone give them a holler or something? I mean this is kind of creepy.”

Stella Gagnon Lt.jg. Comms

‘’Mmm,’’ Hunter pretended to think, ‘’Maybe the witch has put a spell on them.’’ Stella would feel his fingers going up her spine.’’ No wonder the Klingon’s fled,’’ then he turned to Glen ‘’Captain any ideas on our next move?’’ the doctor asked.

Hunter Dr.

The helmsman shook his head. “Seeing as if we’re not being noticed, the only way we’re going to get invited in, is if we knock on the door.”

He took a few steps toward the building, then paused waiting for the captain.

Glen also decided that waiting for the miners to notice them and respond wasn’t working. “I suggest that we saunter over that way, acting nonchalantly, and as Lt Dionysovich put it, ‘knock on the door’,” Glen replied.

• Glen, CO

‘’Suits me fine ,better then staying here like a couple of statues ‘’ Hunter replied, as he too started to walk in the direction of the group getting closer while scrutinizing their faces to see which one he’ll likely approach....or perhaps someone advance towards them.

Hunter Dr.

As Hunter stared so intently at the group of colonists he approached one did seem to finally react and several glares from a few of the others. A 30ish looking human miner in dirty tunic and pants, with longish blonde hair and a bandana tied around his head (giving him a rather rakish and pirate look) stopped, glared then spit onto the ground at Hunter’s feet. “What are ya looking at, Star Fleet?” He demanded, none to friendly.

Hunter did not flinch ,his clear blue eyes bore into the man’s face ‘’Apparently we ain’t looking for you but rather for someone who is less of an idiot ‘’ the male doctor replied.

Hunter Dr.

M’Mera who had been walking with the Captain stopped and stepped back immediately and inserted herself between the doctor the aggressive miner. “We do not mean any dissrrepect. We arre jusst looking forr the leaderrss of this colony.” She said in a low purring voice, trying to placate the situation.

Sharp did the same ,his hand still on the side where he’s phaser was .The last thing he wanted was to be taken by surprise and if they did not kill him probably M’Mera would…so much for the black belt and Karate.

He did wonder why the doctor looked so cool seeing there was no hesitation in the way he walked especially since he was not even armed.

Stella was near to bursting. She had never been one to stand around and do nothing. And right at the moment she wanted nothing more than to do one thing or the other. One was to stand on her tippy toes and give these people a holler to see if they were friendly. Stella did love making new friends. This thought though brought a darkness to her face. She looked sideways then toward Hunter. Well, there was the one thing she could do. She waited patiently until that hand of Hunter’s which had been sliding up and down her back was close enough. She then stepped up to Hunter as close as she could get before, she grabbed that finger of his and twisted it around until Hunter nearly came up on his tiptoes.

A non so friendly moron had just spit ,Hunter was doing his best to stay calm and Stella had picked the worst moment to fool around.

Still smiling Stella said to Hunter. ” Doctor didn’t your mama never teach you to keep your fingers where they’re supposed to be? It probably wouldn’t do a surgeon any good to be losing fingers so you might want to learn to keep body parts to yourself pretty boy. ” At this point she released the poor surgeons’ finger, looked away for a moment before looking back as she finished saying to Hunter. ” At one point I had considered you for a dalliance, but now that I understand you’re not a gentleman you would do better to spend your time looking elsewhere. ” And with that Stella turned her back on Hunter and moved forward to stand by Sharp the security officer. who she asked, ” You think these people are okay that they just keep going back and forth like that?”

Lt.jg. Stella Gagnon Comms

Sure she did twist his finger and it did hurt but Hunter stayed composed ‘’My dear this is not the place to fool around ,now just be more ladylike before you feel the Captain’s wrath and I’m not kidding ‘’ he went on ‘’ It would be in your best interest to stay alert , some of these people aren’t exactly welcoming ‘’.
Hunter had joked with her before they had starting walking towards the group and now it sure was not the time to fool around.

Hunter Dr.

Sharp who had his full attention on the other group whispered ‘’ Something is not right I suggest you stay within our team ‘’. He saw the COS trying to diffuse the situation and he hoped she’ll proceed and succeed in a specified or successful way .

Sharp sec .

As she is working along side with her other crew mates, she hadn’t noticed what is going on around her group or herself. However, she then looked up and noticed what everyone else was talking about. She had then walked over to the others and started to question in her own head.

The Captain said act nonchalant, however Lance was not the best person to act nonchalant, he was far too obvious, however watching the Doctor and Lt. Stella it seemed he wasn’t the worst in the party at it. “Doc, Lt. I think this is probably disagreement served best in the Dragon bar back on this ship, plus Lt. Should anything happen to us I’m sure the good Doctor is going to need his finger” he suggested patiently to them both. “We don’t need to air spats in public, especially when I get the impression Star Fleet are less welcome.” he added lowering his voice
