In any event, I can’t wait to get down to this planet and eat it.” : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Lt. Wally Jeznick, CNS : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Without waiting for the command, the NE initiated the transport and they found themselves engulfed in the shimmer of the transporter beam. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “What the....” John was cut off as the transport began. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : When they arrived on the planet they found themselves in the middle of a grassy field, the long blades gently swaying in the light breeze. To their front, atop a rolling hill, lay a village of small huts and cottages. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Coming towards them, from the village, was a large crowd of people, some walking, a few of the children running joyfully through the grass towards them. The natives were humanoid, their skin all different colors. Some were pale white, some ebony, a few had a pale yellow skin tone, while at least three appeared to be lavender colored. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : The leading two children approached, one boy and one girl, both of pale white skin and goldenrod colored hair with blue eyes. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “Are you here to help us rescue the King?” The boy asked them, looking up curiously. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : -GM Semaj : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : As soon as they saw the people running towards them John moved his hand towards his gun, but he didn’t draw it. Running people made him nervous, you didn’t run unless you were either attacking, or running from something. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Lt Hardin - COS : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Amze took a step forward, “Yes, and if he somehow comes to a terrible demise, take his place.” : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Lt. Cmdr. Amze Ezma (XO) : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Wally ignored the conversation and bent down and took a blade of grass from the ground and tasted it. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Lt. Wally Jeznick, CNS : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “Are you sure that’s a good idea, sir?” Harry said. This was the young doctor’s first away mission. Everything he had been taught at the Academy about alien planets screamed ‘danger’ at him with each planet’s native populus evolving to the conditions of their environment. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : -Harry : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : John shrugged. “We’ve tried shooting him and he’s still walking around. I doubt a blade of grass is going to kill him son.” : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Lt Hardin - COS : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “Oh, um, what?” asked Wally, resuming paying attention. “Of course it’s a good idea. It sounded like the planet was made of sugar. No faster way to find out. So what are we doing? Taking the king’s place? King Wally. I think that could be a good fit for my talents.” : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Lt. Wally Jeznick, CNS : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : The young doctor took out his tricorder and began to scan the counsellor and also the grass around where he had picked up the blade from : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : -Harry : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : The grass appeared to be made up of a sugar-like substance, nothing indicated that it would be harmful to eat. : : : : While the scans presumably showed no ill effects of Wally having eaten the grass, the scans also reveled muscle atrophy and low HDL levels in Wally, as well as other signs seeming to indicate extremely low levels of physical activity. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “And was it sugary?” John asked as he walked over to Harry. Placing a hand on the Ensigns shoulder he leaned in. “See, not gonna kill him.” : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Lt Hardin - COS : : : : “Oh, it’s delicious. Very sweet. You should try some,” said Wally, before grabbing and eating a handful of grass. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : The young doctor was not sure how to respond to the COS so instead simply stated what he thought was obvious. “Well chances are if it were going to kill him it’d already be too late.” : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : -Harry : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Amze shook her head, “Nothing can kill this man, I once ‘accidentally’‘“, she tried to keep a straight face for the last word, “added some poison into his coffee from a science experiment. He came out of it perfectly fine, albeit a little turquoise.” : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Lt. Cmdr. Amze Ezma (XO) : : : : Wally thought for a minute, and then nodded. “Oh, I see. So that’s what science does. I’ve always wondered what that whole science thing was all about. But not enough to actually make any effort towards figuring it out.” : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : The boy and girl looked at the away team quizzically, laughing at almost everything that was said. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Finally the rest of the villagers arrived, and one stepped forward, a short and stout old woman. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Seeing the villagers aproach, Harry returned his tricorder to it’s holster and stood in an ‘at ease’ stance with his feet shoulder width apart and his hands behind his back : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “Hello friends,” She said, giving them a smile. “I am one of the elders here on our world, most everybody in these parts calls me Grandma Nutt. I guess these youngins were able to get our message out and I’m so glad you came to help us. All of Candy Land is in great peril. Our king…” She gasped. “Has been kidnapped.” : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : At this phrase, many of the villagers gasped or wiped a tear from their eyes. It was clear that this kidnapping had affected them greatly. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : -GM Semaj : : : : : : : : : : : : Gerald had received word of the complete transportation and waited a few minutes, having not heard anything Gerald was slightly paranoid regarding his people being off the ship and tapped the pad on his left and said, “Gerald to Away Team, every one safe and sound? What’s the demeanor of the population down there?” : : : : : : : : : : : : – Gerald Hopkins, CO : : : : : : : : : : Amze thought for a moment before replying, “I think that I will let our councillor explain. He is the one that understands people the most after all.” : : : : =^= Captain, I’m pleased to report that the grass is as tasty as we expected. Very sweet. Not too sweet. Well, I don’t actually think anything is too sweet. At least not anything I’ve eaten. Well, not any food I’ve eaten, anyhow. We’re all here. I wouldn’t say the population is demeanor. I says it’s pretty de-nice-or. The king here, as my analysis had concluded, has been kidnapped. Or would you call it kingnapped? You know, because he’s a king and not a kid. I mean, he might be a kid. =^= : : : : Lt. Wally Jeznick, CNS : : : : : : : : : : She then turned to this Grandma Nutt, “This sounds like quite the tragedy, if only there was some sort of talented young lady in front of you who could rule in his absence.” : : : : : : : : : : Lt. Cmdr. Amze Ezma (XO) : : : : : : : : John let out a snort. Typical that they would call this place Candy Land. But yet again it looked like they were going to have to ride in and safe the say. It wasn’t fun having to always play the hero. : : : : : : : : Lt Hardin - COS : : : : : : Grandma Nutt let out a soft giggle. “Well if you are here to help us, then we should be off. We will have a journey ahead of us to reach the Candy Castle. We should first travel to the Lollipop Woods and see if Princess Lolly is safe and sound, don’t you think?” : : : : : : -GM Semaj : : Amze nodded, “Yes, better take out the competition before I can successfully take over....” She noticed what she was saying, “the rescue operations of the king of course!” : : Lt. Cmdr. Amze Ezma (XO) : Grandma Nutt smiled. “Well you should get going then! You’ll have quite the journey ahead of you.” She motioned towards the young boy and girl. “Jack and Jill here will accompany you through the Lollipop Woods to the home of our dear Princess Lolly. She will guide you further from there.” : The old woman turned and addressed the crowd of villagers. “These people have come to help us rescue our King. Let us send them on their journey with well wishes and good tidings!” : Grandma Nutt raised a hand in the air, and as if on cue, the villagers burst out into song. : “We wish you the merriest, the happiest, the best of joy! We wish you the merriest, the happiest, the best of joy. Take care on your way and let love guide you through. We wish you the merriest, the happiest, the best of joy!” : As they sang, young Jack took one of Amze’s hand, young Jane took one of Wally’s. Sevreal of the villagers began to dance and the away team was being corralled towards the village. : Once there, going directly through the center of town, was a path made of deep red brick. : “This is the red brick road,” Grandma Nutt said. “Follow and it will lead you to the Lollipop Forrest.” : Several villagers offered the away team baskets and sacks full of canteens of water and delicious baked goods. : -GM Semaj
“This is the best away mission ever!” exclaimed Wally, in between bites of the wonderful pastry he was eating.

“Are you always this easily excited?” Harry asked the counsellor.

-Harry

“Pretty much,” John said taking a sack. Opening it up he took a quick inventory before sliding it over his shoulder. “So where to Ex? Are we going to follow the road?”

Lt Hardin - COS

The red headed doctor looked from one to the other of each of the officers on the team…

-Harry

Amze nodded, “I don’t see why not. I don’t think that these people have any reason to lie to us, as Wally has not dropped dead from poisoning.”

Amze Ezma (XO)

“Well, not yet,” Harry added.

-Harry

“Well that’s good, because I’m not sure we have enough supplies to last otherwise on our own. So we are definitely going to have to dip into what they gave us, but it seems pretty good. So what are we waiting for?”
