U.S.S. Ganymede – February 23, 1999

Host CEOBishop says:
THE USS GANYMEDE HAS BEEN TAKEN UNDER SEIGE BY ITS OWN SYSTEMS LEAD BY THE NEW TACTICAL CORE, ALL MAIN SYSTEMS ARE DOWN AND THE BRIDGE IS CURRENTLY A VACCUUM

Host CEOBishop says:
THE CREW IS CURRENTLY ON THEIR WAY TO MAIN ENGINEERING

Host CEOBishop says:
<<<<<<<<<<<<RESUME MISSION>>>>>>>>>>>>

Host CO_Vid says:
DrRention: We need to gain access to the Tactical core as soon as we get to Engineering:

XO_Sirach says:
::progressing quickly to engineering, type III phaser in hand::

Host DrRention says:
::hanging back from the main group a little since they keep glaring::

EO_Cerdan says:
:: Computer breaks connection to tricorder::

XO_Sirach says:
::stops and waits for Warke::

XO_Sirach says:
Warke: Still there?

CNS_Warke says:
::catches up to Sirach::

CMO_Cole says:
::crawling down a Jeffries tube with his medics heading towards Engineering::

CTOHebert says:
:: feels major pain from that little run in with the security system ::

XO_Sirach says:
::setting type III to stun::

Host CO_Vid says:
::Picks up pace now that entry is not impeded::

Host DrRention says:
::trying to walk and finish up notes on padd at same time::

CMO_Cole says:
::arrives at a closed hatch, attempt to access the computer to open it up::

EO_Cerdan says:
CEO: Lt. Bishop I can't get access this way.

XO_Sirach says:
::sees Warke, continues to speed walk through deck 33, towards main engineering entrance::

CTOHebert says:
:: speeds up to catch up with the captain, thinks that his first priority, safety of the crew ::

Host CEOBishop says:
ACTION: THE CEO IS NO WHERE TO BE FOUND

Host CO_Vid says:
CNS:~~~~Warke~~ if Bishop is found I want to be the first to know of his condition:~~~

CMO_Cole says:
Medics:  Alright, spread out, set for maximum disrupt.

CMO_Cole says:
::Cole and his medics begin cutting their way through::

CNS_Warke says:
~~~Cole:if you find bishop tell CO~~~

CMO_Cole says:
~~~Aye~~~

XO_Sirach says:
CNS: Tell the Captain we're about to reach the entrance to main engineering, and that we're going to wait for the rest of the bridge crew...go in with better numbers.

CMO_Cole says:
::finishes cutting through the last of the hatch, gives it a shove and it falls through the ceiling of ME with a thud::

Host CO_Vid says:
::Approaches the entrance to Engineering cautiously::

Host DrRention says:
::wondering if there really is a way to completely disable the system::

CNS_Warke says:
XO:med is already there attempting to get in

XO_Sirach says:
::walks up the entrance to Main Engineering from the opposite side of the CO::

EO_Cerdan says:
CMO: Welcome doctor.

CMO_Cole says:
~~~~Warke:  We have a clear way in...

XO_Sirach says:
::startled by the CO, lowers phaser::

Host CEOBishop says:
ACTION:ILLEGAL ACCESS ILLEGAL ACCESS

CNS_Warke says:
~~~Vid:we're nearing ME~~~

CTOHebert says:
:: walks up next to the captain and pulls out his phaser ::

Host DrRention says:
::coming up to a group outside of main engineering::

CMO_Cole says:
::drops down the open hatch, the medics jump down and fan out in a defensive posture::

Host CO_Vid says:
XO:Sirach watch for internal security system malfunctions:

Host DrRention says:
CO/XO:  Uh oh.  That's not good.  It doesn't like "illegal access".

CMO_Cole says:
EO>  Thank you... ::looking around::

Host CEOBishop says:
ACTION:MAIN ENGINEERING HAS BEEN BREACHED

XO_Sirach says:
CO: Found one. ::grins:: we have illegal access

CMO_Cole says:
::walks over to the main engineering door and tries to open it::

Host CEOBishop says:
LIFE SUPPORT WILL BE CUT OFF IN TEN MINUTES SURRENDER NOW

XO_Sirach says:
CO: Perhaps if you use your access code to override the system...surely the Captain's override still works

Host CO_Vid says:
ALL: Stay low and close to the walls:

CTOHebert says:
:: sets phaser to maximum stun; hears the power tune up ::

EO_Cerdan says:
CMO: We had better think of something fast

CTOHebert says:
:: backs off to the wall, standing ready ::

XO_Sirach says:
Rention: What exactly does it mean by surrender?

CMO_Cole says:
Medics:: Fan out and cover the area.  Cerdan>  Our first goal is to get this place open for the Captain and others to get in...

CTOHebert says:
:: chuckles as he hears the XO comment ::

Host CO_Vid says:
::slowly making way towards the Tactical core::

CMO_Cole says:
::punching in the medical override on the main engineering doors::

CTOHebert says:
CO: :: whispers :: Sir, should I go with you?

Host DrRention says:
XO:  I'd say it wants to see you surrender to its control.  It thinks there's an intruder on board that has gained illegal access in here.  ::shrug::

CMO_Cole says:
Computer:  For once in your electronic life, behave!

CNS_Warke says:
::listens::

Host DrRention says:
::nervously following the CO::

Host CEOBishop says:
ACTION:ALL CODES HAVE BEEN VIOLATED THEY HAVE BEEN ERASED

EO_Cerdan says:
CMO: All access is being denied.

XO_Sirach says:
Rention: How would we go about surrendering?

XO_Sirach says:
::running over all options in his head::

CMO_Cole says:
::gives up on the access:: Medics:  Ok you, you and you.  Set phasers for maximum disrupt target the magnetic locks.

Host DrRention says:
XO:  Wave your underwear or something. I don't know how you military types surrender.

EO_Cerdan says:
CMO: We need to disconnect the core from the computer.

Host CO_Vid says:
XO: lay down your weapons for now don't show any signs of open threat:

CMO_Cole says:
::raises his phaser rifle and aims at the door::

XO_Sirach says:
CO: Understood

Host DrRention says:
CO:  Excellent idea.

CTOHebert says:
:: is right behind the Captain, with the phaser ready....
hears captain's plan ::

CTOHebert says:
:: lays his phaser down ::

XO_Sirach says:
Rention: let me ask you this. You programmed it! What did you tell it surrendering meant?

CMO_Cole says:
::Looks over at Cerdan:: Cerdan: Unless you have a better idea?

XO_Sirach says:
Rention: I assume that since its favorite word is surrender...you told it what that means

CMO_Cole says:
~~~~Warke:  Were about to try and cut through the main engineering doors,  stand back.~~~

Host CO_Vid says:
::inches around workbenches and sees Bishop::

EO_Cerdan says:
CMO: go for it.  I'm out of ideas.

XO_Sirach says:
::puts type III phaser on floor...hesitantly::

CNS_Warke says:
~~~Cole:wait~~~

CMO_Cole says:
Medics:  hold!

Host DrRention says:
XO:  I didn't tell it anything about surrendering.  It's not an option I gave it.  This is an intelligent system that can learn.  It picked up "surrender"  from somewhere else.

CMO_Cole says:
~~~Warke: What?~~~

Host DrRention says:
::following CO::

Host DrRention says:
Uh oh.

CNS_Warke says:
~~~Cole:we're considering the prospect of surrendering~~~

CMO_Cole says:
~~~Warke:  We're doing What?~~~

Host DrRention says:
::gazing up at what used to be the CEO::   Oh my. 

XO_Sirach says:
Rention: So basically what you're saying is surrendering could mean anything from running bare naked through the bridge to...blowing up the ship?

XO_Sirach says:
::follows the CO::

CNS_Warke says:
CO:med is ready to cut through the engineering doors.  Should they proceed?

CTOHebert says:
:: tries to laugh at the XO's remark ::

Host CO_Vid says:
::XO: Openly surrender :

Host DrRention says:
XO:  ::shrug::  It depends on what it's learned.

CTOHebert says:
Captain:  Do you have a plan? :: whispers to him.. ::

XO_Sirach says:
Rention: Great, thanks for the help

XO_Sirach says:
CO: I'm worried about what this...thing wants us to do to surrender

CTOHebert says:
CO: I agree with Lt. Sirach.

XO_Sirach says:
CO: without a clear definition of surrender, we don't know what it thinks that means...it could have gotten the definition from anywhere

XO_Sirach says:
*CMO* Is it safe to enter Engineering?

CMO_Cole says:
::locks on with Phaser Rifle:: Medic Posse: hold....

EO_Cerdan says:
CMO:Lets get that door open.

Host CO_Vid says:
*XO*: give it whatever it wants:

XO_Sirach says:
*CMO* Don't fire!

CMO_Cole says:
*XO* Its safe, however the door mechanism is non-functional.  I'm standing by to cut through... Permission to fire sir?

CMO_Cole says:
Medics: Weapons down!

XO_Sirach says:
*CMO* Cease fire

CMO_Cole says:
*XO* Holding our fire sir.

CNS_Warke says:
XO:I told tem to wait for orders

Host CO_Vid says:
CTO: Hebert let's define the problem first:

XO_Sirach says:
*CMO* Put the phasers down, the TAC Core will see it as a threat... we don't want to worsen the situation

CTOHebert says:
CO:  Aye, Sir.

CMO_Cole says:
*XO* Sir?  Didn't the computer said life support was going to be cut off?  Sounds like we already are in a bad situation Sir.  ....

Host DrRention says:
::gazing up at what used to be the CEO::  Oh my.

XO_Sirach says:
*CMO* I'm going to unlock the door...then we'll manually open it...the old fashioned way

CTOHebert says:
:: umm thinks of the current situation... the ship is about to kill all life on it, and we have no way to take it back... I need to think more positively ::
:: also thinks that talking to himself, could get him into trouble ::

XO_Sirach says:
*CMO* It can ALWAYS be worse... remember that

CMO_Cole says:
*XO* The Magnetic locks are engaged sir...

Host CO_Vid says:
Dr.Rention: Any suggestions?:

Host DrRention says:
CO:  Uh....we should be careful.

XO_Sirach says:
::opens access panel to doors:: been too long

Host CEOBishop says:
<<<<TAC CORE>>>YOU WILL BE ASSIMILATED, RESISTANCE IS FUTILE

CMO_Cole says:
Medics:  Put your weapons down.  Split into teams and try and find the rest of the Engineering Staff.

EO_Cerdan says:
::Tries to get any information out of Engineering console::

XO_Sirach says:
::moving chips around and tapping on PADD's, hoping to hear a friendly beep::

Host CO_Vid says:
DrRention: curious thought Dr.:

CMO_Cole says:
*XO* Manual overrides were not functional sir... I've tried.

XO_Sirach says:
CNS: looks like it found the records on the Borg

XO_Sirach says:
*CMO* There's always a way

Host DrRention says:
Uh oh.

Host CEOBishop says:
ACTION:SNAKING CABLES POP OUT FORM THE WALL AND TRY TO GET THE CREW IN THE TAC CORE

CTOHebert says:
:: sees the CEO wired into the ship... thinks of some weird looking stuff ::

XO_Sirach says:
CNS: Got a hairpin?

Host DrRention says:
::ducking::  ACK!

CTOHebert says:
:: hits the floor and starts crawling ::

XO_Sirach says:
CNS: Something with metal?

Host DrRention says:
::batting at the snaking cables::  CO:  It has learned a lot from your officer, it seems.

CNS_Warke says:
XO: You think it wants to make the ship a borg cube now?  If it does surrender means being assimilated

CTOHebert says:
CO Vid:  I recommend that we pull out, Sir!

Host CO_Vid says:
Dr.Rention: Appears to be sort of Borg assimilation:

CMO_Cole says:
Cerdan:  How are you doing?  What has been happening down here?  ::pulls out medical tricorder, leaning phaser rifle against wall::

Host DrRention says:
Tac System:  Hey there....can you hear me? Can you respond to me?   ::strident::

Host CO_Vid says:
CTO: Hold your ground:

CTOHebert says:
:: crawls to where he dropped his phaser and picks it up, arms it back ::

XO_Sirach says:
CNS: It might have a borg plan...I meet a metal object to wedge into the cables to short out the magnetic lock

CTOHebert says:
:: stops in his tracks at the captain's orders ::

CNS_Warke says:
::takes out a slender metal tube and gives it to XO::

XO_Sirach says:
*CMO* I'm going to short out the magnetic lock...I hope...when you see some sparks try to open the door

XO_Sirach says:
*CMO* Then be ready to treat an electrocuted XO

XO_Sirach says:
CNS: Thanks

Host DrRention says:
Tac System:  Please respond to me!  Please!   ::skulking along the floor::

CTOHebert says:
CO:  Sir, This is definitely Borg technology.  Do we stay here and fight?

Host CO_Vid says:
Dr.Rention: It appears the only way to cut the neuro connection is at the source, which in this case is the CEO:

CMO_Cole says:
*XO* I advise against this sir... standing ready ::gestures to MO's:: Medics: Stand  ready.

EO_Cerdan says:
CMO: Get ready maybe we can help from this side.

XO_Sirach says:
*CMO* we've got less than 10 min...no choice...I hope this works!

Host CO_Vid says:
CTO: Don't take any action and it should ignore us:

CMO_Cole says:
EO:  Do you have some sort of wedge we can use to pry the doors open?

Host CEOBishop says:
ACTION:THE SNAKING CABLES ARE STILL APPROACHING THE CREW

CMO_Cole says:
*XO* Ready sir.

Host DrRention says:
CO:  Dammit, I'm a researcher, not a medical doctor!

XO_Sirach says:
::takes the metal tube and wedges into a bunch of exposed cables::

EO_Cerdan says:
CMO: LT> I have a spanner wrench, will that do?

CMO_Cole says:
EO; Better than nothing.

Host CEOBishop says:
ACTION:THE DOOR SHORTS OUT

CMO_Cole says:
::waits for something to happen::

Host CEOBishop says:
AND OPENS

CMO_Cole says:
::grabs a hold of the sides and helps the door open::  XO:  Are you all right sir?

EO_Cerdan says:
All:: YES

CNS_Warke says:
XO:that solved the problem of opening it

Host DrRention says:
::crawling along the floor over to the console and trying to access the system::

CMO_Cole says:
EO:  Wedge that wrench into the door track so it can't close.

XO_Sirach says:
::feels a whole lotta electricity flow through him...he had grounded himself so it goes through him pretty fast::

XO_Sirach says:
::he falls to the ground a little stunned..but conscious::

EO_Cerdan says:
CMO: Aye LT.

Host CEOBishop says:
<<<TAC CORE>>>:YOUR NEURAL MAKE UP WILL SERVE TO INCREASE MY POWER

Host CO_Vid says:
Dr.Rention: I'm going to approach Bishop and apply a Vulcan nerve grip . At that precise moment it should cut off any neuro impulses.

XO_Sirach says:
No one in particular: OOUUCH

CMO_Cole says:
::bustles over to the XO and pulls out his tricorder::  XO: I told you this was a bad idea.

CTOHebert says:
:: hides his phaser underneath his body... so the system doesn't see it ::

CMO_Cole says:
::scanning::

Host DrRention says:
Tac System:  Noooooooo!  This is not the way it was supposed to beeee!    Stop it now!  Stop it!  You must listen to me!

Host DrRention says:
::feverishly trying to access the system's console::

XO_Sirach says:
::still shaking a little...hair standing on end::

EO_Cerdan says:
:: Pushes wrench into door slide::

Host CEOBishop says:
ACTION:THE SNAKING CABLES GRAB THE DR

XO_Sirach says:
CMO: well it opened didn't it

CTOHebert says:
Dr Rention:  I recommend that you please keep quiet... before it harms you.

CMO_Cole says:
XO: Minor electrical burns on 50 percent of your body... and your heart has developed an slight arrhythmia....  You'll live::

Host DrRention says:
Ahhhhhhh!   Stop!   Nooooooo!!!!!!

Host DrRention says:
::batting at cables::

Host CO_Vid says:
CTO/Rention: At that precise moment do whatever is necessary to remove Bishops arm from the connection:

CTOHebert says:
:: gets up and runs towards the cables ::

CNS_Warke says:
~~~sees if she can sense anything from Bishop~~~

XO_Sirach says:
CMO: That's good...this would be a bad time to die

Host DrRention says:
Ahhhh!!!!

CTOHebert says:
CO: Permission to FREE Him??

XO_Sirach says:
::stands up trying to regain his posture::

Host CEOBishop says:
ACTION:THE DOCTOR IS FLUNG ABOUT FOR A FEW MOMENTS BEFORE HER SKIN TURNS GREY AND MURKY.  SHE IS PLACED ON THE WALL NEXT TO BISHOP

CMO_Cole says:
XO: Don't count that career option out yet....   Once this is all over you get to spend the night in sickbay.

EO_Cerdan says:
XO: I've tried to access every system no luck.

Host CO_Vid says:
::slowly approaches Bishop::

Host DrRention says:
::unresponsive::

Host DrRention says:
::grey and murky::

CTOHebert says:
:: crawls up to the captain ::

XO_Sirach says:
EO: hmmm...::grins:: did you try shorting it out?

Host CEOBishop says:
ACTION:A FORCEFIELD COMES UP AROUND BISHOP REPELLING THE CO

XO_Sirach says:
EO: I'm kidding of course...shorting out the entire ship would be a bad idea

CTOHebert says:
CO:  Sir, Dr. Rention has been abducted...

Host CO_Vid says:
CTO: Now ::applies grip::

CNS_Warke says:
~~~Cole:can you hear me?~~~

XO_Sirach says:
CMO: You're gonna have to take me fighting all the way

CMO_Cole says:
XO: We could dump the core.

Host CEOBishop says:
ACTION:THE CO IS FLUNG ACROSS THE ROOM

CTOHebert says:
:: hits the forcefield... cannot get to the CEO ::

EO_Cerdan says:
XO: I tried a power feedback it broke connection before I could start.

CMO_Cole says:
~~~Sir?~~~

XO_Sirach says:
CMO: The core is on the Battle Bridge...the rest of the officers are there...too dangerous

CTOHebert says:
:: runs to the captain's aid ::

CTOHebert says:
:: pulls out his phaser... and sets it ready ::

CMO_Cole says:
XO: I meant the warp core.... It would reduce its operation power to the aux. generators.

CNS_Warke says:
~~~Cole:never mind~~~

XO_Sirach says:
::senses a Vulcan has been injured::

CMO_Cole says:
XO: Might confuse it enough to recover the emergency subsystems.

XO_Sirach says:
CMO: I think it has an alternative power source...however I like the confusion idea

CTOHebert says:
Captain Vid:  I suggest that I shoot the field maybe, or that we retreat from this area... The Dr. has already been abducted.

Host CO_Vid says:
::notices the Dr.'s plight::

XO_Sirach says:
EO: What do you think...is it worth a try? We can also put it back

CMO_Cole says:
XO:  We could format the computer core...

Host CEOBishop says:
ACTION:THE CABLES ATTACKS ARE GETTING STRONGER

XO_Sirach says:
CMO: We don't have access

CMO_Cole says:
CMO: Well we could...... blow up the computer core.

CMO_Cole says:
<XO:>

Host DrRention says:
::grey and murky::

EO_Cerdan says:
XO: It could work, We also need to cut power to main computer

CNS_Warke says:
XO:why not try a virus

Host CO_Vid says:
CTO: Agreed:

CMO_Cole says:
XO:  I can get my hands on some deuterium grenades....

CTOHebert says:
CO: Permission to fire upon the DR's position and try to free her?

Host CO_Vid says:
::starts to retreat from core:

XO_Sirach says:
EO: Okay, so the options are: blow up computer core, eject warp core, give the computer a virus, or blow up power supplies

CTOHebert says:
:: starts to follow the captain ::
Permission to free the DR?

CMO_Cole says:
XO:  Or start the auto destruct sequence... it's on a totally separate system....

XO_Sirach says:
EO: I like the computer virus...less violent...easier to fix

EO_Cerdan says:
XO: Just manually disconnect warp power to computer

Host CO_Vid says:
CTO: Hebert try to burn the core:

XO_Sirach says:
CMO: I'd like to avoid destructing the ship...plus all the access codes don't work

CNS_Warke says:
XO:I suggest we try something like a computer virus

CTOHebert says:
:: sets phaser to maximum force and aims right at the TAC core ::

EO_Cerdan says:
XO: And power from impulse engines

XO_Sirach says:
EO: I don't want to lose power again...too risky...got any viruses handy?

CTOHebert :: FIRES PHASER AT MAX. Discharge! (HandPhaser.wav)

CMO_Cole says:
XO:  We could attempt to get a runabout out and fire on the core from outside....

Host CEOBishop says:
ACTION:THE CABLES SNAKE OUT AND GRAB THE CTO

CTOHebert says:
:: shoots the cables that start to come at him ::

XO_Sirach says:
CMO: Think less destructive...it would backfire on us...if we lost too much power the whole ship could shut down...including life support

CTOHebert says:
:: starts to back off ::

XO_Sirach says:
*CO* How's it going up there?

CNS_Warke says:
XO:don't use force against it for it isn't working.  We need to be passive about how we destroy it

Host CEOBishop says:
ACTION: THE CTO IS BEING FLUNG AROUND

Host CEOBishop says:
FLUNG

CMO_Cole says:
XO:  We could flood the Battle Bridge with a tetryon radiation and some nasty chemicals.... that would deal with anything biological.. and probably most of the electrical.

XO_Sirach says:
EO: The virus thing might work...see if we have access to any viruses the computer isn't already familiar with

CTOHebert says:
:: feels the pressure in his head of fast movements ::

CTOHebert says:
HELLLLLLPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!

XO_Sirach says:
CMO: The entire crew is on Battle Bridge..are you mad?

XO_Sirach says:
*CTO* How's it going up there?

EO_Cerdan says:
XO: It has everything in computer core.

CMO_Cole says:
XO:  Well the could always leave.

CMO_Cole says:
XO: I meant evac the chamber and flood it with radiation.

CTOHebert says:
*XO*HHEHHEHEEEELLLLLLLLPPPPPPP  :: communications cut off ::

CMO_Cole says:
XO: And chemicals.

XO_Sirach says:
CMO: From the sounds of the CTO...doesn't seem like an option

Host CEOBishop says:
ACTION:THE CTO IS NOW PART OF THE SYSTEM

CTOHebert says:
:: phaser is thrown from his hand and hits the floor ::
:: feels his mind starting to fade ::

XO_Sirach says:
ALL on ME: OKAY, think fast...can we get to a virus SOMEWHERE...a PADD or anything

CMO_Cole says:
XO:  What about an anesthetic?

CNS_Warke says:
::listens to what's being said since it seems nobody is listening to her::

XO_Sirach says:
ME: If you've been hiding some secret virus this would be a good time to reveal it

XO_Sirach says:
CMO: What would that affect?

Host CO_Vid says:
::Looks in awe at the devastation::

CTOHebert says:
:: feels his mind start to interface with the system... cannot.... control.... looses consciousness ::

CMO_Cole says:
XO:  Well if this is the borg... or borg based...they are about 50% biological....

XO_Sirach says:
CNS: What about you Warke...you seem to contain all evils that reside in this world...any viruses?

Host CO_Vid says:
:: still working way out of the core area::

CMO_Cole says:
XO:  I have a few nanobots in sickbay.... but without the computer they would be locked out...

Host CEOBishop says:
ACTION:THE REMAINING BRIDGE CREW IS OUT OF THE CABLES RANGE

CTOHebert says:

XO_Sirach says:
CMO: try and get them...and fast

Host CO_Vid says:
*XO*: I'm working my way back toward your position:

XO_Sirach says:
CMO: see if you can beam them here

CNS_Warke says:
XO:I've been studying computer viruses and have samples in my quarters

XO_Sirach says:
CO: Understood...we're working on getting either a virus or nanobot to attack the computer

CTOHebert says:
@ :: sees wonderful looking women coming towards him... must be a dream... NOOOOO They are BORG.... help me!! ::

Host CO_Vid says:
XO:affirmative:

XO_Sirach says:
CNS: I figured you would..how fast can you have them?

CMO_Cole says:
::walks over to a console and attempts to beam his nanobots out of sickbay, ::

CTOHebert says:
:: starts to twitch ::

CNS_Warke says:
XO:it depends on whether we have transporters

XO_Sirach says:
CNS: try to get them...either by the network...or transporters

CMO_Cole says:
::walks over to the computer.... :: Computer:  Computer, who is on the Battle Bridge? ::asking nicely::

Host CO_Vid says:
*CMO: Is there anything that can be done to suppress the neuro links from Bishop,Rention and Hebert?

CMO_Cole says:
*CO* Fatal or non-fatal?

XO_Sirach says:
CNS: How fast can you run?

Host CO_Vid says:
CMO:prefferably NON-fatal:

CNS_Warke says:
XO:a fair pace

XO_Sirach says:
CNS: I know Cole keeps everyone on a strict fitness plan...so try your best to run and get your evil viruses...

CMO_Cole says:
CO:  Anamesatine gas.... or low levels of Tetryon Radiation.. I have plenty of both in sickbay.

XO_Sirach says:
CNS: ON THE DOUBLE

CNS_Warke says:
::heads to her quarters::

Host CO_Vid says:
*CMO*: Try the gas first:

CMO_Cole says:
*CO* And how am I going to get to sickbay?  It took two hours to get into here...

XO_Sirach says:
CO: Warke is running to her quarters to get some viruses the computer won't recognize

CMO_Cole says:
*CO* The Computer isn't functional or i could flood it manually.

Host CO_Vid says:
*CNS*:Warke how soon can you get to those viruses?:

Host DrRention says:
::grey and murky::

EO_Cerdan says:
CMO: I'll Give you a hand

CMO_Cole says:
XO:  I'm going to go to sickbay and see if i happen to have any gas canisters lying around... If all else fails we can run it manually.

CNS_Warke says:
::reaches her quarters:: *XO*:I'm there now.  ::picks up her virus collection including some new viruses::

Host CO_Vid says:
*XO*: send all personnel not involved with the rescue run from deck to deck and keep the system busy:

Host CO_Vid says:
*CNS*:don't take too long deciding what to use:

CMO_Cole says:
*CO* I'm about 5 minutes away from the Battle Bridge with my chemicals.

XO_Sirach says:
CNS: forget it, we don't have time....just put one on the computer..and fast

XO_Sirach says:
CNS: use whichever loads the fastest

CMO_Cole says:
::pops out of j tube hatch on deck 8 and runs towards sickbay carrying 100 pounds of solid state gas::

Host CO_Vid says:
CMO:acknowledged let loose with it as soon as you enter the core and don't worry about me:

XO_Sirach says:
CNS: You've got Main engineering...I'm off to the battle bridge

CNS_Warke says:
XO:if the virus doesn't work do I have permission to use a second virus?

XO_Sirach says:
::moving through Jeffries tubes as fast as Vulcanly possible::

XO_Sirach says:
::finds vertical tube and starts climbing::

XO_Sirach says:
*CNS* Permission granted, whatever it takes

XO_Sirach says:

CNS_Warke says:
*XO*:as soon as I disable my secondary virus, which is scheduled to be loaded any second

XO_Sirach says:
CO: I've sealed it off...containing the gas...I think I got everyone out...but I had to close it off before it was too late

CMO: Good question

Host CEOBishop says:
To no one: ugh what happened?
