Kelli wakes up a few minutes later, and see's Hannah watching her.

"What are you doing?" she asks, with a curious smile.

Kreiser walked onto the bridge of the Evolution with what looked like a standard issue Starfleet luggage pack, which was in fact cylindrical. He set it next to the captain's chair, and plugged a few power feed cables into the unit. Pressing a button, he activated the AI.

Durandal's hologram appears on his pedestal and it smiles innocently at Spock.

"I'm in perfect working order, Commander."

True being a leader does have its price.  Here let me help you with that.

*Zayan gets up to help him with the dinner.*

*Both Sanchez and Zayan suddenly jump up at the sound of the voice saying 'fascinating'. Sanchez looks around, but sees nobody.*
"What was that? Did I just dream, or did I really hear someone talk in here?"

"Yes, this one will grow on you," Tom says, patting the emitter cylinder lightly. "By the way, I'm Commander Tom Kreiser, Executive Director of the Daystrom Institute for Research and Development."

*Sanchez and Zayan quietly sneak back onto the Evolution.*
"If we can avoid being seen by anyone of the crew, we stand a chance that they may think we're still somewhere on the station, and they won't come disturb us in my quarters."
*Silently, they go from corridor to corridor. Suddenly, they see someone coming in the distance.*
"Oh no, quick! Get into that corner!"
*He quickly pushes her into the corner, and suddenly kisses her on the mouth, standing with his back to the corridor as the crewmember passes by, notices the two standing there and kissing each other, and making nothing of it, walks on and disappears into another corridor. Then Sanchez stops kissing and looks around again.*
"Ok, the coast seems clear again. Sorry that I kissed you so suddenly, it was the only thing I could think of to avoid being recognised. Luckily, I'm not wearing my Starfleet uniform. Now let's go, my quarters are only a few corridors further. Wait-"
*He takes his commbadge.*
"Let me switch that thing off. There. Now let's go."
*He takes her by the arm as they sneak on to the captain's quarters. Not seen by anyone else, they finally reach his quarters and enter.*
"Computer, seal door and deactivate sensors in this room."
*He smiles at Zayan.*
"This way, they won't know we're in here."

*Zayan, now safe with Sanchez in his quarters speaks.*

It was fun to sneek back on the ship and you did surprise me with that kiss.

*She then comes close to him and kisses him back.*

Now we are even. ;)  I will just go slip into something more comfortable.

*Zayan then enters another room to put on the outfit that Sanchez bought her at the Thong Store.*

*Zayan still clutching the covers replies.*

I am not nervious, just startled and I am not in any kind of compromising position.... Just spending my off duty time well.

*She rises from the bed neatly wraping the covers around her body.*

If we are to trust your intentions, you will leave us alone  and not be lurking around this room observing until the privacy code has been deactivated.  But you will also not say, mention, show or reveal any of this to any one or any thing.  To be sure that you do not falter in this task you must swear upon your maker's life, your memory core, and your existance.  Break, or bend this oath and you will bring about your destruction as well as the end of your maker's life!  Is that CLEARLY UNDERSTOOD?

*Zayan glares around the room not sure where exactly to glare at the AI.*

Post by: Spock on July 17, 2005, 05:01:22 PM
I guess what im really asking Kreiser is does the AI have a fail safe should he go bad ?.......its one of those precautions he should have incase the worst happens and I need to shut him down......??

*turns to Valory*........You can go to the thong store or assist me in installing the AI......your choice really but I think you will enjoy the station more then the ship.......After all......long term in space with no amusement aboard a station may make our helmswoman Very Cranky and I dont think the ship near the Bridge officers would like a Cranky helmswoman who wasnt watching what she was doing and suddenly pilot us into a black hole now would we ?........So go on shore leave.......Dont make me Order you to do so.......Theres not much to do on the ship except major repairs....so its sorta your choice......

*Zayan pulls the covers of the bed up to her chin.*

Evidently they forgot to give you decency and proper etiquet proticals in your subroutines!

*Zayan then glares at Sanchez.*

I thought you said no one would disturb us here.  So what happened to the privacy code that you activated?
Title: U.S.S. Evolution Mission 11: Durandal
Post by: Durandal on August 11, 2005, 04:12:32 PM
"Fascinating! General, I can understand why you would be upset, as you may not fully understand my nature. I am literally incapable of simply ignoring events that occur on this ship. Privacy codes apply only to the main computer. For all intents and purposes, I am this ship. It is as if it were my body. However, personal threats on my existance, and the life of Commander Kreiser, frankly, are senseless. No crime has been committed."

He pauses for a moment. "However, I am sympathetic to your situation. While I may know everything that happens aboard this ship, rest assured no one else will learn."

FLAWED!!!!!!........WEll then Durendal you have no business being on this ship........IF you keep going around telling us FLAWED!! beings that.......After all Its starfleet that gave permission to have you built......and its starfleet that is allowing you to be put on this ship that I!!! Keep intact.......Maybe we should go and alter your subroutines and cut out this FLAWED! programming you tend to be having......After all This Flawed vulcan is going to be keeping this ship in once peice....and that means you!........SO if you want to get along well with these flawed beings such as us I suggest YOU behave yourself....

After all next time this ship gets torn to peices.......I have to fix it and make sure this ship can go into warp without being torn to peices........Is that clear!......

OOC**You mad spock mad!.......Shame for shame :P......Tone down your RPing when it comes to saying ppl are flawed please....Most ppl wont take kindly to that.....Altho If I was playing a ships computer I would say FLAWED!! to everyone HAHA

*Sanchez puts on his captain's uniform and looks with a smile at Zayan, who had dozed back into a sleep again after awhile.*
"I have to get back up, and show my face to my crew," he whispers to her without wanting to wake her up.
*He straightens his uniform, and walks toward the door.*
"Computer, dim lights."
*The lights suddenly lower. Then, Sanchez walks to the bed, and pushes a button next to it. A small holographic burning candle appears on a stand. He smiles again, and then leaves the room.*

Kelli gives Bryan a kiss. "That's sweet," she says, getting up and heading toward the bathroom.

Poking her head out the door a moment later, she says, "Make yourself at home. We still have the next few days off."

Kelli retreats back into the room. "Computer, activate sonic shower," she says, and begins to disrobe.

OOC**And now my crews can get to work on the medical lab and bay.........When ya return everything should be back up and running and fully stocked again......Oy......We need to fill up the armory Ugh.....

IC**Spock returns from his stroll on the station and gets back to work........A ensign comes up and hands Spock a PADD with the up to date status of the repairs*

Hmmmm.......Durendal.......how are those diagnostics coming.......oh and while your getting a feel for the ship........Try not to deactive any of teh containment feilds.......

*after he reads over the padd.......he heads for sickbay and see how the repairs are coming along there..........couple of minutes later he notices nonir, ftima, and keilah left and sighed with relief*

Enisgn hows the repairs going along here ?

Ensign: going good sir....the medical bay should be repaired soon.......I give it another day or two.

Spock: Good......Once you have repaired the medical bay I want you to start bringing in supplies and stocking up the medical bay again......I want it fully stocked to the brim is that clear

Ensign: Yes sir its crystal clear *then he heads to work on the medical bay*

*spock then walks out of the medical bay and onto deck 4 still astonished that the entire deck has been completely repaired....Spock then decides to go to engineering and see how the work is progressing there*

Lt. Whats the status report for the day?

Lt. Hanson: going good actually........we are about to pack up and return to avalon station.......Just have to complete a few minor changes thats all

Spock: Alright Lt. Thank you for your help......

"Thank you Dr. I guess i just have to trust you then. *a smile appears on her mouth* I will talk to him, so much, he will wake up from his coma to beg me to stop talking."
*Ftima turns to Nonir, stil holding his hand, and starts talking to him*

"Did you hear that Robert, the doctor said you will be just fine. I bet you are making plans for us, thinking about what we shall do, and you dont want me to disturb you. I have been thinking too, and Ihave a little suprise also for you when you wake up. I just know you love it. Did you hear about this new store they have opend on the station, it have been really crowdy, even Airis went there and she didnt return yet."

*Ftima looks at the doctor*

"you must think i am crazy, talking a whole lot of grab"

I Feel that there are so many things that are left unsaid between us, but I do not know where I should start.  I feel.... but how......

*Zayan puts her glass down on the small table in front of the couch.  She is unsure of what to do, should she continue this spoken train of thought?  If she does, would it push him farther away from her?  Seeing Zayan's look of dispair and confusion Sanchez is compelled to do what he has wanted to do for some time.  He begins kissing her and slowly lays Zayan down on the couch.  She gives no sign of protest, but welcomes him.  Zayan kisses him back needingly and draws him down to the couch as well.....................................*

*Meanwhile in sickbay, or what's left of it*

"Well ftima, I don't think you are crazy. I've also heared about the store, it seems that they have the newest collections in thongs and other underwear"

*Keilah stood there, working with scalpels and other devices, on Lieutenant Nonir. It seemed as if he wasn't loosing blood anymore, but had it stopped permanently?*

"Well, Lieutenant Nonir is ready for transport. He's stabalized and now needs bloodtransusion and rest. Those things can't be done here as the labs are still down. I believe Dr Nickerson is on duty at Avalon Station, so he will help."

                 =A= Dr Keilah to transporterroom 2 =A=

"We are ready for transport, 3 to beam over to the Medical Department on Station Avalon"

"Okay," he replies as she ducks back into the bathroom. Bryan then goes to the replicator. He begins to input a new pattern, taking a few minutes to perfect the "recipe". After about ten minutes, he pulls two plates of his own, homemade french toast from the replicator.

You can hound me all you want Durendal as long as you do what your purpost dictates......and hopefully youll be nicer then the Rivendell's AI....that one was an interesting AI.......

*then turns to the hologram*...........Oh your the AI im supposed to install.......So tell me.........what is your main programming ?

*turns to look at Valory*........Your not on shore leave with the rest of the crew ?.......Well......Mind as well give you something to do.......Hmmmmm.......You could either assist Ftima in the medical bay........shes about to fall apart........and her judgement may compromise saving Nonirs life.......Or you can go and help with the repairs of deck 4......Or you can do the right thing and go on shore leave.....*then gives a slight smile*.......

*then turns his attention back to Thomas*.....Well its a pleasure to meet you then.........I suppose we should install the AI into the ship I suppose......Ummm Mind telling me how im supposed to do a maintence check of this AI......?.......Never really had the pleasure of working with such a sophiticated AI unit....((Thats a compliment)).......

If this unit breaks I need to know how to fix him....?

"You seem to think you are in a position to give me orders, Commander. I am a colleague, not an underling. Only the Captain and First Officer give me orders. Don't think for one minute that I am here to run your errands, or to do your job for you. Your repair staff kept you informed before, they can continue. My computing power can be put to better, more productive uses. And the Captain is not to be disturbed."

*Zayan chuckles a little as she sits down next to Sanchez.*

You sure do know how to compliment a lady.  But no, I don't get to hear such things often. Too many just see me as an Exile Loxian General and don't want to look farther than that, as I can be quite a brutal person.

*She lets a worry-some sigh out.*

It is good though to hear that your views of Loxians has changed. I am not showing you any sides of my people, just showing you who we really are.  We were once a peaceful people, no great wars or mass killings.

*Zayan can't help but laught very loud at his question regarding kissing.*

You have not dated much have you?  It is the same with all species-some are good kissers others not so good, and of course there are some who kiss like only thought possible in dreams.

*She then smiles at him, the candle-light reflecting in her eyes.*

Why not have something smooth to drink and perhaps a dinner?

Durandal experiences an overwhelming sense of euphoria as he is transferred into the ships computer. He pauses for a minute, then his disembodied voice emanates throughout the bridge.

"This is incredible! I feel so... real! I believe this is what it feels like to have a body. I can feel the whole ship around me, as if it is me!"

He removes his holographic image from the pedestal for the time being, and toys slightly with the ships systems, just to get a feel for it. The  Nova class ship is now essentially Durandal's body, and he begins to fluctuate the warp field and toy with the shield emitters, as routinely as a humanoid would flex their limbs.

Always remember to forget, The things that made you sad.
But never forget to remember, The things that made you glad.
Always remember to forget, The friends that proved untrue.
But never forget to remember, Those that have stuck by you.
Always remember to forget, The troubles that passed away.
But never forget to remember, The blessings that come each day.

On:*Meanwhile in sickbay, Ftima is working on Nonir. The shot of the phaser almost hit Nonirs heart. His lifesigns are weak and getting weaker every minute.

*Keilah walks out of the science lab, he finally finished the work on his project. The results were satisfying and he now had the time to visit sickbay again. He exited the turbolift which had brought him to the right deck, the doors of sickbay slide open and he immediately sees ftima, on the other side, working on a patient.*

OOC**you are aware Sanchez that you can Contact spock and spock will take care of this lil Problem that Durendal seems to be having called RESPECTING PRIVACY!........LOL...But otherwise this is funny :D

IC**Very good Durendal............How are the repairs going along ?......heard anything from the station on Nonirs Condition yet ?...........Oh and have the biobed and medical bay been repaired yet ? I know there was some damage done to that area......And make sure the ensigns put the fresh supplies in the correct spaces..........They tend to not do that at times....

OFF: Please continue to post here, where you left off in the other topic :) This mission will not be a very long one, and the ship will probably stay docked to the station for the entire duration. Durandal will be the new A.I. that will be installed.
As of next week, somewhere after the weekend, I will no longer be able to post due to vacation and all that, for about 3 weeks. I will be back around the 10th of august then. So this mission will be one without me, but a ship that's docked doesn't necessarily need its captain on the bridge all the time :) Tuarthk will not be able to post for one or two weeks either, as he's coming over to visit us. That will thus place Lt. Cmdr. Kelli Lauren in command until either Tuarthk or Sanchez returns. But that doesn't mean that nothing will be going on here!!! A new A.I. implementation into the ship will be fun! :)

OOC**FUN!!!.....I gotta order a entire rebuild of Deck 4 and you want to put in a new AI!........Oh man you dont give me enough credit LOL.......FUN! we shall see.........Oh and as far as Tuarth is concerned........He never has been posting period for the last month or 2.......an XO is supposed to post even if its an OFF post.........you should get a more active XO Sanchez........Because T isnt being a very good one :P.......But thats my 2 cents :)

IC**Spock returns to the evolution to over see the repairs and total rebuild of deck 4........then an order comes in for a installation of a Ships A.I. With that said spock gives a sigh and goes to meet the repair teams on deck 4 to see how the repairs are going........*

Ensign hows the repairs on deck 4 proceeding?

Ensign: good sir should be done in a week *then gives spock a PADD with the report*

Spock: Good Go about rebuilding Deck 4 and ill see to the rest of the ship.........*spock then wonders off to find nonir in the ships sickbay while looking at the PADD*

*few minutes later spock finds nonir but when he enters sickbay he finds Carlson dead.......Ftima lugging on Nonir....and Nonir Shot*

*goes over and helps Ftima to get Nonir on the biobed*

Doctor......Do something!

"This is bad ftima, we need to locate this internal bleeding. Here! Hold his hand and speak to him, you know him better then me. Our first priority now is making scans!"

This AI thinks that the entire command staff specifically me is ordering him to do things......Hes quite Arrogant and I dont know how much I can put up with the way hes been talking to me lately.....You think HK47 was bad when he was on board....this New AI unit you decided to have installed is far worse.....

He seems to only take orders from you and the XO......But I never Gave him orders....I ask him to do things and he comes back with a arrogant answer......I think you should talk to him on Respecting the command staff......and the chain of command.......because he needs to take orders from the command staff should you or the XO fall ill....or something of that nature......In other words I suggest putting him in his place..........he may be this ship but he must respect everyone....Doesnt matter if hes an AI or not.......Ill give you a more detailed report on the happenings between me and this New AI later......When hes not hovering over my shoulder 24/7.......But ill tell you this now.....im tollerating him.......
