ON
Chichire entered the transporter room 20 min earlier then told she took a seat on the floor in the corner of room double-checking her weapon and here reflex sight after she was satisfied with her check of her weapon. She still hated that she could not take her sniper rifle. She just sat there until every one showed up.
Kyt met Daniels in the transporter room. She nodded, to the others that had arrived. "Stran's going with the diplomats. The Captain thought that was best."
Daniels chuckled. "You know, some of the others call you 'Lieutenant Antimatter'. It's probably for the best, given your proclivity to violence, regarding pacifists."
"Daniels." Kyt noted, dryly.
"Ma'am?" Daniels asked.
"If you bring up that nickname, or my proclivity to violence, I will demonstrate my proclivity to violence. On you. Are we clear?" Kyt asked.
"Yes ma'am."
"But everyone already knows about it," Leo said stepping up in what seemed to be dark, almost ship to ship camo. When someone looked closer, they could see it was the old MACO style. "So why not flaunt the proclivity to violence a little?"
"If you start calling me Gunny Antimatter, we are going to have a scrap on our hands, anger management classes, or no." Kyt said, in a warning tone.
"Yes, Lieutenant Antimatter." Daniels noted.
Kyt pelted him upside the head with her tricorder. "Now pick that up, and carry it for me."
"Yes, ma'am."
Noelle walked into the transporter room at that point and raised an eyebrow at the exchange "Perhaps I don't want to know." She said as she walked over to Leo, her own uniform a darker color to blend in with the shadows a bit more.
The door opened again. Doctor Bowen walked in with the new doctor. They both were carrying a duffel bag with supplies. Behind them, two nurses entered. "Hello," Leanne said, " I want you all to meet Doctor Wesley Valdez...he is the new surgeon and will be part of this mission."
Wesley raised his hand to give a short wave and a grin.
"I'm sure you all know my nurses...Nurse Yvette Jaynes and Nurse Helga Lowe," Leanne said as she set the bag on the floor for a little bit, as it was heavy on her shoulder.
Helga smiled and nodded to the others in greeting.
Daniels nodded. Kyt shrugged.
Noelle nodded in greeting and leaned back against the wall after shifting her weapon to the side. She watched as the doctor's carried in the duffles. She shrugged it off, they would probably need the supplies. She straightened the sleeve of her uniform and waited for the rest of the team to arrive.
Chichire noticed the Lt lean against the wall some what close to her so she stretched out her hand to the Lt. "My name is Chichire Shintaku but you can call me chi for short we were never introduced so now just as good time as any".
Noelle took the extended hand "Noelle Ghasann. Pleased to meet you." Noelle smiled "Very true. Things have been hopping and there hasn't been a lot of time to meet people." She said "So you're our sniper?" She asked Chi.
"Well yes I'm chi said smiling but it seems lately the new marine CO do's not know how to use me as a sniper you see I'm more a support element then just a grunt but oh well his lose so do not blame me if thing's go wrong with out any warning."
"I heard that Corporal," Leo said turning. "You do know that your rifle will turn into the Sniper variant as soon as you change one little thing?" Bringing up his rifle, he flipped up a small disk and smiled, then flipped up a second, smaller disk nearer to the stock. "Laser scope, good zoom, and you have an instant sniper weapon." Flipping both disks down he smirked. "But for now, you're to keep your weapon in its Type One form."
Thank you sir I would never have guessed that seeing how it one of the first thing we learn about are weapon systems as a recon sniper but thank you for the reminder chi said sarcastically
Kara Melo walked into the transporter room dressed in the MACO uniform requested by Captain Mangalia. She took a quick survey of the room, noting the various personnel and their positions. Nodding to the others, she took a position by Chi.
Trent Kushner was right on Kara's heels as she walked into the room. He was likewise dressed like his Marine counterparts for the mission. Unlike many of them he still preferred his Marine carbine to the Marine variant phaser rifle carried by most of the squad. Currently it was slung loosely over his right shoulder.
Trent stayed to himself as he awaited the order to move out from his superior.
"Daniels, you'll be sticking close to the good Doctors." Kyt instructed. "I don't care where they go, you stay with them."
"And you, ma'am?" Daniels asked
"I'll be doing the same. And making sure you do your job." Kyt noted.
Doctors always have bodyguards, Doctor Bowen thought after she heard Kyt's command to Daniels. Its been awhile since she has;gone away from the ship for away missions. She hopes this mission will be smooth, but she is more concerned about the illnesses spreading on the planet in certain areas, from what she gathered in a Starfleet report. Besides the mission, she plans to learn more about her new surgeon that will be going with the team.
Daniels put his hand on Bowen's shoulder. "We'll be fine. We've got an antimatter bomb, if things go south." He said, nodding towards Kyt.
Kyt pelted him upside the head with a ration pack.
"See?" Daniels asked, chuckling.
"Antimatter bomb?" She felt uneasy with that word. "I never heard we are going to walk into violence on the planet," she raised an eyebrow, having doubt about going on this mission.
"Take it easy, Doctor Leanne." Kyt said, absentmindedly falling into Bajoran naming thought space. "Ensign Daniel is just trying to be funny, using a nickname I don't like."
"I hope so...My name is Doctor Bowen as nobody calls me by my first name, unless it is personal." She half-frowned at her, only hoping that she was kidding. "My mission as well as my medical personnel is to deliver supplies and discover the cause of the sickness on the planet. I just hope we don't end up in a bad war zone...like bombs. I will be glad to have body guards near us."
The surgeon overheard the conversation as he raised an eyebrow. He only got to know his boss for one day, so he stayed clear of the situation by remaining quiet. Wesley looks around, wondering when the team will start leaving. Maybe they are still waiting for others.
"Don't worry, Doc." Daniels said, chuckling. "Her bite is much worse than her bark."
Doctor Valdez glanced at Daniels and whispered, "Maybe it's her hormones." He did a quick smile carefully so that his boss doesn't see it.
"No." Daniels said. "It's her charm."
Samantha walked into the transporter room and looked at the teams gathered. "Good. Just to be sure we're clear: you will beam down to the warehouse set aside for our use. I want you to check it out, be sure it's secure, and report. Once you're satisfied, we'll shuttle down the supplies. Doctor Bowen, you'll be in charge of the supplies. Captain Mangalia and Lieutenant Tramira, you will be in charge of securing and maintaining the facility. Any questions?"
Leanne turned to give the Captain her full attention. "Yes, ma'am. No questions from me."
"Secure, and maintain facility. Affirm." Kyt said, nodding. She looked to Daniels. He simply nodded.
"Secure and maintain," Leo said as well, looking to Kyt. "Defend if necessary?"
"Okay. Good luck and be safe," she said as the group headed to the transporter pad.
