Lieutenant Ikaia Wong - The Conduit Eating Kind
Ka Banning
((The Grand Mezzanine - Amity Outpost - Sometime later…..))
Wong: =/\=Sorry. It’s one of Orrey’s stupid vole—er— weasel things jumped out at me. You know it occurs to me that I don’t think we ever settled on a proper name for these things yet. But anyways, side note - we have a rodent problem. Apparently, some of them made their way to engineering.=/\=
Moore: =/\= Those aren’t the conduit-eating kind, are they? =/\=
Saavei: Response.
Rosek-Skyfire: ::frowns:: =/\= There's different kinds?=/\=
Ikaia looked in the general direction of where the weasel-vole ran off to. He pointed his beacon in that general direction.
Wong: =/\=These are absolutely the conduit-eating kind.=/\=
Ikaia moved his beacon over where the shadows were and in the darkness, he could see it - a bunch of glittering eyes starting back at him. He pulled the sled closer to him as he backed up towards the turbolift. The creatures were also approaching him while hissing at him. He pulled his tricorder from his labcoat pocket while keeping an eye on them just to see if he could sneak a scan of them.
Moore: =/\= Well, have we tried shooting them? I am seeing a few more around you, and we really don’t need anything chewing on the EPS relays or causing a fire.=/\=
Rosek-Skyfire: =/\= Shooting them may not be the best option, depending on how many there are. Is there possibly a way to put them to sleep without putting the lieutenant to sleep? Induce hibernation or something? Or we can just beam them somewhere else where they will be less trouble? =/\=
Saavei: Response.
Ikaia’s expression was bordering on exasperated.
Wong: =/\=I’m a medical officer, NOT the chief of security, Moore!=/\=
Rosek-Skyfire: =/\= Whatever we're going to do, we need them someplace where they're not going to cause damage that we just don't have time to fix. We can't afford to lose any power right now. We need everything we've got. =/\=

At that moment, one of the creatures lunged for him. He quickly moved out of the way causing the creature to land behind him. He certainly did NOT want that in the turbolift with him! So he pulled the sled close to him and started running.
He heard a shrill scream behind him as if it were some sort of battlecry. He didn’t want to even see these creatures make such a sound! To him, it sounded a lot like an upset tribble ramped up to eleven. He ran in a massive arc with the rodents in hot pursuit. His feet pounding on the floor as he tried to make a break for the turbolift again.
Wong: =/\=If anyone has any ideas, I’d like to hear them right now!=/\=
Saavei/Moore/Rosek-Skyfire: Response
Vanlith: =/\= Confirm the weasel is gone and you are still in the turbo lift? =/\=
What?! He wasn’t in the turbolift right now! He was just trying to GET to the turbolift!
Wong: =/\=They are NOT gone! Definitely NOT gone!=/\=
Saavei/Moore/Rosek-Skyfire: Response
Ikaia almost threw the sled into the lift and just turned around to see another rodent try to make a leap for his face. Without thinking, he smacked it out of the way with the end of his beacon sending the creature flying off into the darkness.
Wong: =/\=They really don’t like me very much!=/\=
He shut the doors of the turbolift as quick as they would allow. But he didn’t feel like it was quick enough.
Vanlith: =/\= Preparing mass transport of the bio-signatures to the cargo hold. =/\=
He couldn’t believe what he was hearing. She was planning to transport these creatures IN THE MIDDLE OF A NEUTRONIC STORM?!?! Was she INSANE?!
Saavei/Moore/Rosek-Skyfire: Response
Wong: =/\=You’re doing what?!=/\=
He heard the little paws pounding on the door of the turbolift. But that was replaced with the familiar phasing sound of the transporter whisking them away to parts unknown.
oOPlease let this NOT bite us later…..Oo
Saavei/Moore/Rosek-Skyfire: Response
Ikaia finally felt the turbolift move. He set the sims beacon down on top of the crate and allowed himself to breathe.
Wong: =/\=I’m in the turbolift and on my way…..=/\=
Saavei/Moore/Rosek-Skyfire/Vanlith: Response
He then remembered he took a scan of the weasel-voles. He decided to have a look at the scans he picked up. For a moment, he wasn’t sure what he was seeing was real. He raised an eyebrow for a moment while interpreting the data before his eyes went wide. There was no mistake. This was real.
Wong: =/\=Dear sweet zombie Spock….. You’re not going to believe this….=/\=
Saavei/Moore/Rosek-Skyfire/Vanlith: Response
Wong: =/\=I managed to get a scan of those creatures and I can say that this is the most… uh…. Cursed combination of DNA I have ever seen. I see tribble, Cardassian vole, and a third unknown species.=/\=
Whatever that species was, it was compatible with both tribbles AND the voles.
