Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The Paula Greene remains docked at Arcadia Station. Security teams begin their deck by deck searches for the elusive Skyler.

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Zachary Marshall> ::Sits in the Ready Room with Commander Amendoeira::

CMO_Biishe says:
::Sitting on the bridge waiting for an update, wanting to go but that was not her job::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Exiting the TL onto Deck 6 to check in with the security teams searching the ship::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::facing Mr. Marshall in the RR::

CNS_Richardson says:
::on the bridge, trying to see if she can pick up any empathic readings from the intruder, feeling totally inept at this::

CEO_Hull says:
::Pulls the cover from the dilithium matrix control system:: Himself: Oh for the love of Kahless, look at this mess!

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Skyler> ::Slowly moves about the CTO's quarters. Stops at a rifle that he helped her purchase from some Ferengi a year prior::

CMO_Biishe says:
::Looks over at Tari, not interrupting::

TO_Eldad says:
::Stands near a few members of the security team, waiting for the CTO arrival::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Approaches a security officer and begins getting a report on the progress::

CNS_Richardson says:
::scrunches her face up, as she concentrates::

OPS_Meelor says:
::walks into Main Engineering:: CEO: Problem sir?

CEO_Hull says:
OPS: Looks over at the OPS:: Hey, yeah, take a look at this mess! The isolinear chips have been liquefied

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::sighs:: Marshall : There was no reason that i saw to not let the Captain go.. Plus, the security levels on the Algernon device demanded that the Captain be the one handling the situation... So he did..

TO_Eldad says:
::Turns to look at the CTO, he waits for orders::

CTO_Ryan says:
Jameson: Have you checked the senior officers quarters yet?

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Zachary Marshall> ::Nods, make a note::

OPS_Meelor says:
::glances over the CEO's shoulder and shrugs:: CEO: Looks okay to me...

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Zachary Marshall> XO: Were you informed of any trouble onboard the Device before it's "departure"?

CTO_Ryan says:
<Jameson> CTO: We are about ready to begin searching the senior quarters, now, Sir.

CEO_Hull says:
OPS: ::Grins:: Yes, it is at least 3 hour job....I better get to work

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Skyler> ::Gently brushes his hand over the rifle. His hearing picks up on the CTO's orders, but he does not worry. He has his mission. Nothing can interfere with that::

CTO_Ryan says:
::turns to the TO:: TO: Take four men, begin searching the senior quarters starting with mine.

CMO_Biishe says:
SO:  Have you been able to get a lock onto the intruder?

CNS_Richardson says:
::lets out her breath with a sigh, and shakes her head:: CMO: I dunno, I'm no good at this stuff; I can't detect anything at all.

OPS_Meelor says:
::nods at the CEO and hands over a handful of PADD's:: CEO: Well, I'll leave you to your tinkering. Here are the daily reports.

TO_Eldad says:
CTO: Aye Ma'am ::Nods at a few members and begins walking away::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Ens. SO> CMO: No ma'am.

CEO_Hull says:
<Duty Engineer>: Ensign, have some of our people get down to the cargo bay, get a replacement for this dilithium matrix system, we'll just replace the whole thing

CTO_Ryan says:
::Taps a PADD and records the progress::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::nods:: Marshall : Yes... As soon as my Wife... Commander Aurora Biishe told me something was wrong, i personally lead Mr. Baptiste to the Transporter room and departed to the device... When we got there, however.. Something did go wrong... We got transported back to the Paula Greene.. All of us, except the Captain..

CMO_Biishe says:
CNS:  I don't know if I could or not, I have not used the Vulcans 'gifts' beyond the children, and quite honestly, I am afraid too.  But there must be someway we can discover where the intruder is.

CEO_Hull says:
<Duty Engineer> CEO: Aye Sir,

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Skyler> ::Can hear the security team approaching::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Zachary Marshall> XO: So it's your belief that Captain Vakol was kidnapped by the device?

TO_Eldad says:
::Sighs and arms his phaser, walking quickly to the TL:: Security Officer #2: Mmm, she said we should start with her quarters first.. So let's do this quickly and efficiently

CNS_Richardson says:
::considers a moment:: CMO: Maybe I need to go wander about, a bit; on some of the other decks I might pick up something?

CTO_Ryan says:
::Sees the TO get into a TL and shouts out:: TO: Where are you going, Ensign?

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::shakes his head:: Marshall : Not entirely.. According to what my wife told me happened before i got there, seemed that the Captain struck a deal with the Algernon device itself.. He.. volunteered to "help it"

CMO_Biishe says:
::Turns to look at her::  CNS:  There is one possible way to 'tie' him down, but it would be on the drastic side.

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Zachary Marshall> ::Looks up from his PADD:: XO: Help it with what, Commander?

CNS_Richardson says:
::looks at the CMO:: CMO: I'm not going to like this, am I? ::sighs:: Go ahead; what's your idea?

CTO_Ryan says:
TO: My quarters are over there.  ::Points::  Unit 639.

TO_Eldad says:
::Turns to look at the CTO:: CTO: I'm go.. ::Notices where he is:: to your quarters of course ::Looks away and begins walking to the direction the CTO said::

TO_Eldad says:
Self: That was stupid ::Sighs::

CMO_Biishe says:
CNS:  We are fairly certain he is aboard... what if we anesthezine the entire ship except for certain areas that we know he is not?

CTO_Ryan says:
::Shakes her head and walks down the corridor::

CNS_Richardson says:
CMO: Worth a try

CEO_Hull says:
*Computer*: Begin a level 2 diagnostic on the m/arc, and then a level 1 diagnostic on the port and starboard PTC's

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
Marshall : From what i gathered, he was supposed to be it's pilot... something of the sort of being "his eyes and ears in this plane of existence"

CMO_Biishe says:
CNS:  At least then we can search with him with less impunity.

CNS_Richardson says:
CMO: But we'd need to make sure our people are clear of the areas.

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Computer> CEO: Processing. Estimated completion of said diagnostic, forty three minutes.

OPS_Meelor says:
::leaves the CEO behind in Main Engineering and proceeds to the nearest turbolift::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Stops walking then turns around and heads for her quarters::

CMO_Biishe says:
~~~~XO:  If you are not to busy, I would like to anesthezine the entire ship except for some areas and see if we can't get our hands on Skyler.~~~~

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Zachary Marshall> ::Steeples hands:: XO: The Device, to our knowledge, was built in this plane of existence ... do you have any idea why it would need a humanoid being to help it ... see?

CNS_Richardson says:
CMO: And clearing our people out, how would we ensure he's not with them?

TO_Eldad says:
::Stands in front of the CTO quarters, his hand gripping his phaser:: Security Officers: Get ready

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::shakes his head:: Marshall : No...

CEO_Hull says:
<Duty Engineer>: Well, with that in progress, lets do a computer simulation on the dilithium chamber, make sure the flow is within specs

OPS_Meelor says:
::arrives at the turbolift and steps in:: TL: Bridge...

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Zachary Marshall> ::Makes a note of that as well::

TO_Eldad says:
::Overrides the door control system and opens the doors::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: As the Sec. Team enters the quarters, they find them empty.

CMO_Biishe says:
CNS:  Major areas we would keep clear, such as engineering. But many of our crew would need to take a nap or warn Skyler what we were up to.

CTO_Ryan says:
::Follows the security team into her quarters::

CNS_Richardson says:
::nods::

TO_Eldad says:
::Turns to look around:: Self: Moving on

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
~~~ CMO : Skyler's our intruder? Go ahead... Though from what happened last time, i have my doubts that will work..~~~

CTO_Ryan says:
TO/Sec Team: Spread out!  ::Draws her phaser::

OPS_Meelor says:
::leans against the wall of the turbolift and breaths in through his rebreather with a sigh::

CMO_Biishe says:
~~~~XO:  I won't argue with you on that, but it is a start.~~~~

CTO_Ryan says:
::Begins carefully moving about her quarters, phaser drawn::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Skyler> ::As soon as they enter, he drops down from the corner he "squeezed" himself into on the ceiling. His feet kicking two sec. personnel in the back so hard that they are slammed into the CTO & TO. He then back flips out of the quarters, hitting a command on the nearby panel which temporarily locks the doors::

CEO_Hull says:
<Duty Engineer> CEO: Yes Sir, it will take a few moments to program the computer...

CMO_Biishe says:
CNS:  Tealk has given us the go ahead.  You want to fill in OPS?

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
Marshall : You must know that information on the Algernon device is sketchy at best... Maybe the Captain thought it was the best way to study it...

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Zachary Marshall> XO: Maybe.

OPS_Meelor says:
::steps out of the turbolift and onto the bridge, making his way forward to his station::

CNS_Richardson says:
::nods, and moves over to the Ops station, looking at all the controls, with a little trepidation::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::sighs:: Marshall : I'm not sure why he did, But the Captain left.. He wasn't forced, or kidnapped..

CMO_Biishe says:
*CEO*:  Isaac, I need you to make sure your area is clear of all intruders.  The area needs to be secured.

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Skyler> ::Moves swiftly down the corridor. Wondering why the CTO has not taken any "action" as of yet ... maybe the others will::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Falls to the deck from being hit by two security personnel:: Sec: Get him!

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
Marshall : I see no other logical explanation for his departure.. Like that..

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Zachary Marshall> ::Nods::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Sec. Officer One> CTO: Your door's locked ma'am ... you'll have to use your overrides. ::Mumbles::

CTO_Ryan says:
Computer: Computer, open doors to unit 639, security authorization Ryan 2-5-7 Alpha.

TO_Eldad says:
::Turns at the shout, he tries to find the CTO with his eyes:: CTO: Ma'am?

CMO_Biishe says:
*CTO*:  Lt.  Ryan, I need you to pull back your teams to a secure area.  Take any of the crew you have with you.

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The CTO's doors open.

CTO_Ryan says:
::rushes out of her quarters with the rest of the security:: Computer: Computer, Security lockdown, deck 6.

CNS_Richardson says:
::sees the Ops officer, and smiles with relief:: OPS: Here's your console...

CNS_Richardson says:
::steps away::

TO_Eldad says:
::Runs to the CTO with his team:: CTO: Ma'am, what is it?

CTO_Ryan says:
*CMO* Doc, Intruder alert, Deck 6.  Security lockdown in progress!

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Computer> CTO: Deck Six is now under security lockdown. All security lockdown protocols are in effect.

OPS_Meelor says:
CNS: Gee thanks, Counselor... ::slides behind his console and sits::

CTO_Ryan says:
TO/Sec Teams: Spread out!

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
Marshall : Is that all, sir?

CNS_Richardson says:
::steps back::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Skyler> ::Runs into a forcefield. This is not the sort of "action" that his master wanted ... turns, and narrows his eyes::

CMO_Biishe says:
OPS:  Lock down Deck 5, 6 and seven.  Prepare to send anesthezine in those areas.

TO_Eldad says:
::Nods and runs to the right side, he starts running::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Zachary Marshall> ::Skims through some information on his PADD:: XO: Yes, I believe that's all ... for now. Command may want some more information from you in the future. ::Stands::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Skyler> ::Starts running as fast as possible in the direction he just came from::

CMO_Biishe says:
CNS:  Maybe they will make this job easier.

CNS_Richardson says:
::nods::

TO_Eldad says:
::Signals the team to get ready for any trouble::

CMO_Biishe says:
*CTO*:  We are going to gas decks 5, 6 and 7.  Be prepared.

CTO_Ryan says:
Computer: Computer, open all doors on deck 6, Security authorization Ryan 57 Zedda 4

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::stands as well:: Marshall : I will always be available... In the meantime, I’m afraid you'll have to stay on board the Paula Greene. We have a security lockdown in effect....

OPS_Meelor says:
::nods:: CMO: Aye sir... ::engages forcefields on decks 5, 6, & 7:: ...decks have been sealed, sir.

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: All doors on Deck Six swish open.

CMO_Biishe says:
OPS:  Flood those three decks.

CTO_Ryan says:
*CMO* Acknowledged!  *Sec Teams* Gas masks, now!  ::Taps the pad next to a locker and extracts a gas mask and puts it on::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Zachary Marshall> XO: I would hope so with what happened earlier.

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Sec. Personnel> ::Place on acquired gas masks::

TO_Eldad says:
::Turns to look at a doors that opened near him, he looks puzzled::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Continues walking down the corridors searching for the intruder::

CMO_Biishe says:
CNS:  I hope this works... for a change.

OPS_Meelor says:
::engages the environmental controls and releases anesthezine gas throughout the deck::

TO_Eldad says:
::Frowns and grabs a gas mask, putting it on::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::motions towards the exit f the RR:: Marshall : You're welcome to stay on the bridge.. ::starts moving towards the exit:: Marshall : If you don't mind.. I have an intruder to catch..

TO_Eldad says:
Security: Let's resume people ::Resumes running::

CMO_Biishe says:
::Looks up at their guests and her husband::

CNS_Richardson says:
::nods:: CMO: I have my doubts; Skyler has evaded our detection before.

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: Anesthezine gas pours throughout decks five, six and seven.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::steps out of the RR into the bridge:: CMO : Any luck on finding him?

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Skyler> ::Looks up as he hears sound, coming around the corner to find the CTO and her group. Takes a deep breath, and holds it ... the gas not affecting him::

OPS_Meelor says:
CMO: Doctor, deck five, six, and seven have been flooded with anesthezine gas...

CMO_Biishe says:
CNS:  I am at a loss what else to try other then delve into the Vulcan's gifts, and that I am reluctant to do.

CMO_Biishe says:
XO:  Not yet.  We are currently flooding decks 5 through 7.  He was seen on deck 6 by the CTO.

CEO_Hull says:
<Duty Engineer>: Sir, the heavy usage of the computer is causing the secondary computer core to augment, it is showing a drop off in efficiency, I will send a team to check on it

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Zachary Marshall> ::Nods, and follows the XO, listening carefully to what the others say::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Runs around a corner smack into Skyler:: Skyler: I knew it was you!  ::Fires her phaser even knowing it won't affect him::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Skyler> ::Is struck by the phaser blast, and falls back. Grits his teeth but does not respond::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::nods:: CMO : So i guess now we wait...

TO_Eldad says:
::Hears phaser shots, he turns around and runs to that direction::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Fires phaser again::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Skyler> ::Kicks the CTO's phaser out of her hand, and dives at her::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: Sensor alerts blare on the bridge signaling the usage of phasers on Deck Six.

CMO_Biishe says:
<TO> XO:  Sir, we are picking up phaser fire on deck 6.

CTO_Ryan says:
::Her phaser flies from her hand as she is hit by Skyler and tumbles to the deck.  Begins to grapple with him::

OPS_Meelor says:
::frowns:: CMO: Shots fired on deck six, section 128.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CMO, OPS, TO : Send all security teams to that location... HAve them wear breathers..

CEO_Hull says:
<Duty Engineer>: Very well, keep an eye on it, make sure the ODN lines are not damaged as well, in fact, check the subspace fields for the ODN's that might be where the problem is.

TO_Eldad says:
::Comes near the CTO::

FCO_O`Rourke says:
XO: I suggest erecting the forcefields in the area

CMO_Biishe says:
<TO Runn> XO:  Aye sir.

CTO_Ryan says:
::Puts her hands around his neck and squeezes as hard as she can::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::turns to the CMO as if asking «if it had been done::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Skyler> ::Head butts the CTO, then hits her in the stomach. Notes the approach of the TO, but ignores him ... continuing to fight the CTO ... the earlier acquired energy making his body surge with anger and strength::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Skyler> ::Chokes::

OPS_Meelor says:
XO: Sir, I could polarize the metal in the corridors. It should create a stun field..

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Skyler> ::But refuses to take a breath ... uses his abnormal strength to hurl the CTO away from him and at the TO::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
OPS : What about our people?

CMO_Biishe says:
<TO Runn> *Security*:  All security to deck 6.  Except those keeping the main areas secured.

TO_Eldad says:
Security: Grab him, quickly!

CTO_Ryan says:
::Stumbles back then jumps up kicking Skyler in the stomach::

TO_Eldad says:
::Runs to help the CTO::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Skyler> ::Feeling weak from the lack of oxygen ... grabs the CTO's leg and spins her around into a bulkhead::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
TO : Seal off that area..

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Skyler> ::Strength is fading ... the energy wasn't enough::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Slams into a bulkhead:: Offf!!  ::Gets her balance and goes after him again::

FCO_O`Rourke says:
CMO: They might need a medic in that area as well ?

TO_Eldad says:
::Hits Skyler head with his phaser::

TO_Eldad says:
::Notices the security teams doing the same::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
FCO : No.. not until the area is deemed secured..

OPS_Meelor says:
XO: Well ... they'd be stunned. But the effect would last a short period of time.

CMO_Biishe says:
FCO:  As soon as the gas is cleared, I will send my people in.

CTO_Ryan says:
::Rushes Skyler then jumps up again kicking him under the chin::

CMO_Biishe says:
FCO:  However... ::Turns to her husband::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Skyler> ::Brings elbow around and catches the TO in the neck, kicks out and catches another sec. officer as best as he can. Is kicked by the CTO falls back ... finally takes a big deep breath, the gasses filling his lungs::

CMO_Biishe says:
XO:  I can go down.

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Skyler> ::Using the last reserves of his strength, he reaches out and grabs the CTO up, preparing to snap her neck, holding her so tightly she can't move ... her sec. personnel helpless to do anything::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
TO : I want a report from that area as soon as possible.. Of anyone down there feels like they are loosing the battle, let our Operation's officer know.. OPS : You are authorized to try that if the To instructs you to..

FCO_O`Rourke says:
CMO: I was thinking more of a Corpsman

TO_Eldad says:
::Shakes his head a few times::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Skyler> ::His eyes are bloodshot, he tries to position his hands to deliver the final twist ... ::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::frowns:: CMO : Give me a good reason for me to let you go down there now?

CTO_Ryan says:
Skyler: #%$#$!!  Aghhh.......

CMO_Biishe says:
::Nods::  FCO:  That would be a better idea.

CTO_Ryan says:
::Manages to kick him one last time::

CMO_Biishe says:
::Looks at her husband::  XO:  Because I am the chief medical officer.

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: Her reaction is subconscious, but powerful. Skyler is suddenly slammed by an invisible force that carries him down the corridor ... the gasses taking their toll and knocking him out.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CMO : You are also acting XO... I can't let you do that.. Send one of your nurses.. But only after it is deemed safe...

CMO_Biishe says:
*CTO/TO*:  Please report your progress.

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: It will only take the CTO a moment to realize she used the latent abilities ... the "gifts" which the CNS & previous CSO have shown in the past.

CTO_Ryan says:
::Falls to the deck out of breath:: Sec: Siege him, NOW!

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Skyler> ::Remains unconscious on the ground::

CMO_Biishe says:
::Raises an eyebrow::  XO:  That applies to you, not the XO.  Going in is the XO's job.  ::Smiles::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Kneels on the deck, head down, trying to catch her breath, wondering how she was able to kick him::

TO_Eldad says:
::Grabs Skyler with the aid of the security team::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Zachary Marshall> ::Listening the crew report their findings and progress::

TO_Eldad says:
CTO: Ma'am, you should go to the sickbay. You don't look very well..

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::shakes his head:: CMO : You can get ready.. But you are NOT to go there until i let you know...

TO_Eldad says:
CTO: We will take him to the brig

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: More security arrive on the scene to help with the capture of Skyler.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
TO : Any reports from the security personnel?

CTO_Ryan says:
::Waves her hand at the TO:: TO: Put him in the Brig under a level 10 security field.  24 hour guard.  Move, quickly before he wakes up.

CMO_Biishe says:
::Lays a gentle hand on his arm before heading for sickbay.::

TO_Eldad says:
::Nods:: CTO: We need the force fields lowered first..

CTO_Ryan says:
::Taps COM badge:: *CMO* Doc, we have captured the intruder.  ::Breathes heavily:: It was Skyler.

CMO_Biishe says:
<TO Rann> XO:  They have apprehended the intruder.  The CTO has been hurt.

CEO_Hull says:
<Duty Engineer> CEO: Sir, the dilithium matrix control system is installed, it will take another hour or two for the installation of control isolinear chips and programming.

CMO_Biishe says:
*CTO*:  I am on my way.

OPS_Meelor says:
XO: Shall I lower the foreheads and beam the CTO to sickbay?

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::taps his badge in Turn:: *CTO* : Lt Ryan, Is the area secure? Do you have injured?

CTO_Ryan says:
::Stands slowly, bracing herself with one hand on the bulkhead::

CTO_Ryan says:
*XO* The intruder has been taken to the Brig.  No injuries reported, Sir, although I am pretty beat up.

CMO_Biishe says:
::Picks up her pace and heads for deck 6, grabbing a gas mask::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::nods at OPS:: OPS : Beam any severely injured to sickbay.. CMO : You are needed down there, it seems..

CEO_Hull says:
<Duty Engineer>: Very well, lets see what we can do with the engineering hull computer from here, while they have that security lockdown going....check the subspace fields of the ODN's between the Eng. hull and the primary hull

OPS_Meelor says:
::nods:: XO: Aye sir... ::lowers the forcefields on decks 5, 6, & 7 and locks onto the CTO beaming her to sickbay::

TO_Eldad says:
::Walks to a nearby console, requesting a site-to-site transfer to the brig::

CEO_Hull says:
<Duty Engineer>: Checking Sir..

CTO_Ryan says:
*XO* Deck 6 is secured, Sir.  Computer: Computer, deactivate security lockdown, deck 6.

CMO_Biishe says:
*OPS*:  Please remove the gas from decks 6 through 8.

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: A panel or two sparks in Main Engineering. The CEO's earlier sec. team reports that part of the secondary computer system has indeed been "fried" by the psionics of the Algernon Device, and they suggest certain security protocols be shut down for the time being.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
*CTO* : Well done, Lt..

CTO_Ryan says:
::Dematerializes and rematerializes in Sickbay, falling to the deck::

CEO_Hull says:
::Jumps back from the sparks::

OPS_Meelor says:
*CMO*: I'm venting the anesthezine gas now. Also, Doctor, the CTO has been beamed to sickbay. ::vents the gas off of the affected decks::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The anesthezine gas is vented.

FCO_O`Rourke says:
XO: From the sounds of the madman,  I hope she  zaps him with enough happy juice to knock over an elephant

CMO_Biishe says:
::Seeing the lock has been removed, continues, only to pause::  *OPS*:  Thank you.  ::Changes course and heads for medical.::

CNS_Richardson says:
::settles into her chair, relieved that things seem to be under control::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Grabs her gas mask and pulls it off, trying to catch her breath as she lies on the floor in SB::

CMO_Biishe says:
::Enters the room to see Angel already working on the CTO::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Zachary Marshall> XO: Now that things seem to be calming down, Commander. Am I permitted to disembark?

CEO_Hull says:
*XO*: Sir, this is Lt Hull, the Engineering Hull's computer core has been 'fried' as it has been put, obviously by the psionic energy encountered, we will need to shutdown certain security protocols to lower the computer usage

TO_Eldad says:
::Appears in the brig area, he places Skyler in a empty cell and then he raises the force field:: *CTO* The prisoner is secured, Ma'am

MO_Angel says:
::Looks up at the doctor::  CMO:  She will be fine.  Badly beaten.

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Arcadia Station Main Operations> @ COM: Paula Greene: U.S.S. Paula Greene, this is Arcadia Station Main Operations. State your status please.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::chuckles:: *TO* : I want you to continue your deck by deck search.. I don't think he did, but if Skyler had company, i want them found..

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
Marshall : Sorry, sir.. only after we are certain that all the intruders have been apprehended..

CMO_Biishe says:
::Takes a look, removing her mask::

OPS_Meelor says:
XO: Commander, the Starbase would like to know our status...

FCO_O`Rourke says:
COMM: Starbase: We have a suspect under custody and have just gone off security alert

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Zachary Marshall> ::Nods, gesturing to the XO's chair on the bridge:: XO: May I?

CTO_Ryan says:
CMO: How's it look, Doc?

OPS_Meelor says:
::glances over at the FCO:: XO: Never mind, sir...

CMO_Biishe says:
CTO:  Sometimes I think you should have your own personal medic follow you around.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
OPS : Tell them we're on a security lockdown.. We've apprehended an intruder, and are searching the ship for more... We'll let them know when we're done..

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Arcadia Station Main Operations> @ COM: Paula Greene: Do you need any additional security?

CTO_Ryan says:
CMO: I could use some water, please.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::frowns at the FCO::

CMO_Biishe says:
CTO:  It is not too bad.  You have some pulled muscles and bruising.  But at the old saying goes, you walked away from the fight.

MO_Angel says:
::Gets the CTO some water::

CMO_Biishe says:
::Begins to repair the damage.::

FCO_O`Rourke says:
::points out is what the status board shows ::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Takes the water from the MO and drinks it:: MO: Thank you.

MO_Angel says:
CTO:  Your welcome.

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The CTO begins to feel her pain fade away, to be replaced by a surge of energy ... the likes of which she has never known of before.

MO_Angel says:
::Hands the CMO various instruments::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Nods at the CMO::  CMO: Why, Doc?  I have you to fix me up!  ::Forces a grin::  Ouch!

CMO_Biishe says:
CTO:  That is odd...

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
COMM : Arcadia : If you could guard all the exits from the PG, just in case, we'd be obliged..

CMO_Biishe says:
CTO:  True, true... ::Smiles::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Feels an unusual strength and sits straight up::

CMO_Biishe says:
::Lays a hand on the CTO's shoulder::  CTO:  Hold up.

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Arcadia Station Main Operations> @ COM: Paula Greene: Understood.

CTO_Ryan says:
::Stands up:: CMO: Why?  I feel fine, Doc!  ::Rushes out of SB::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::paces the bridge, slowly::

MO_Angel says:
::Looks at the doctor::

OPS_Meelor says:
::points out that the status board is on his panel and not the FCO's::

CMO_Biishe says:
What the...  *XO*:  I need the CTO back in sickbay.  She just dashed out the door.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
*CTO* : Lt?

CEO_Hull says:
*XO*: Sir, this is Lt Hull, the Engineering Hull's computer core has been 'fried' as it has been put, obviously by the psionic energy encountered, we will need to shutdown certain security protocols to lower the computer usage

CNS_Richardson says:
::observes the pointing between the Ops and FCO, with a raised eyebrow::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
*CEO* : Negative.. not at this time, Chief...

CTO_Ryan says:
::Rushes down the corridor to the TL and enters::  Bridge!  ::Taps her foot and bangs her fist on the turbolift walls::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CTO : Lt Ryan.. Respond...

CEO_Hull says:
*XO*: Aye Sir

CTO_Ryan says:
*XO* Sir?

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
*CTO* : What are you doing?

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
*CTO* : You should be in sickbay...

CTO_Ryan says:
*XO* Reporting to the Bridge, Sir.  I will be there shortly.

CMO_Biishe says:
::Shakes her head::  MO:  I am going to head back up to the bridge.  Use the readings we have and see if you can tell what just happened.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
*CTO* : Negative.. not until the Doctor clears you for duty...

CTO_Ryan says:
*XO* Sickbay, Sir?  Why?  I feel fine, Sir!  Never better actually.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
*CTO* : The doctor seems to think you need further testing.. That is enough for me.. As it should be for you.. Don’t make me order you Lt...

MO_Angel says:
::Nods and with padd in hand, downloads the data::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Exits the turbolift onto the Bridge:: XO: Sir, Lt. Ryan reporting for duty, Sir!  ::Walks over to the tactical console::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Computer> CEO: Diagnostics on the Matter / Antimatter reactors for level two, and the power transfer conduits for port and starboard levels one are completed.

CMO_Biishe says:
Computer:  Location of Lt. Ryan.

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Computer> CMO: Deck One, Bridge.

FCO_O`Rourke says:
::quietly draws a phaser and ratchets up the stun setting ::

OPS_Meelor says:
::glances back at Ryan, never having seen her so chipper before::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::frowns:: CTO : Lt. Ryan... Did you hear me?

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Zachary Marshall> ::Looks up at the CTO with surprise at her cheerful voice::

CTO_Ryan says:
XO: Sir?  Hear what, Sir?

TO_Eldad says:
::Grabs a chair and sits down in front of Skyler's cell::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Skyler> ::Remains unconscious in his cell::

CMO_Biishe says:
::Sighs::   Well, that makes it easy.  ::Steps onto the TL::  Computer:  Bridge.

CNS_Richardson says:
XO: Want me to escort her back to Sickbay? ::speaks very quietly::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CTO : Lt. Ryan.. I’m ordering you to sickbay... ::motions at OPS, and then at  Ryan, hoping he will get the hint::

CTO_Ryan says:
XO: Sickbay?  Is there a problem in Sickbay, Sir?

OPS_Meelor says:
::nods at the XO and quietly disconnects the console that Ryan is walking towards::

CMO_Biishe says:
::As the TL stops, one rather annoyed doctor steps off onto the bridge.::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: Tactical One shuts down.

FCO_O`Rourke says:
::turns and watches events ::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Looks down at her console as it powers down.  Taps the console trying to reactivate it:: OPS: I seem to have lost power to my console!

OPS_Meelor says:
::stands from his console, slipping a phaser out of a side compartment:: CTO: I'm heading that way, Ryan. Why don't you join me. ::walks up towards the back fo the bridge::

CEO_Hull says:
<Duty Engineer>: Let's start taking things off line, computer wise, take the holodecks off, and replicators in non-essential areas, increase the subspace fields around the ODN's that might help computer efficiency

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CTO : No.. But I’m beginning to think there is a problem with you... ::calls two security officers:: Sec : Please escort the CTO down to sickbay.. Join then Counselor..

OPS_Meelor says:
::waves:: CTO: Oh, I put it in a diagnostic mode while we were here at the Starbase.

CEO_Hull says:
<Duty Engineer>: Aye Sir

CNS_Richardson says:
::nods, and moves to Ryan's side:: CTO: Sarina, let's take a walk; it shouldn't take long, really.

CMO_Biishe says:
::Takes a calming breath::  CTO:  Would you be so kind as to return to sickbay with me?  You know the procedures better then I.

CTO_Ryan says:
::Sees people approaching her and begins back away.  Grabs for her phaser which she left on deck 6::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Sec. Officers One & Two> ::Have not taken out their phasers, and approach the CTO cautiously::

OPS_Meelor says:
::presses the call button next to the turbolift:: CTO: Ready, Ryan?

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CTO : Please.. Ryan.. Don't make this harder than it has to be.. You're not well...

CTO_Ryan says:
All: Hey, what's up with you people?  ::Takes a defensive stance::

CMO_Biishe says:
All:  Please step aside.

CTO_Ryan says:
XO: Sir, there is nothing wrong with me!

OPS_Meelor says:
::draws his phaser and shrugs, firing at her on heavy stun::

CNS_Richardson says:
::speaking soothingly, and moving very slowly, then stops at the CMO's words::

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: The CTO is stunned, and collapses.

CMO_Biishe says:
::Turns to look at Meelor::  OPS:  That was not called for.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::frowns at the OPS officer::

OPS_Meelor says:
::shrugs:: XO: Easy enough... CMO: Whatever.

CTO_Ryan says:
::Falls unconscious to the deck::

CMO_Biishe says:
::Goes over to the CTO to check her out::

FCO_O`Rourke says:
::relaxes a bit ::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::sigh:: CMO : What happened?

CMO_Biishe says:
OPS:  Whatever is not acceptable.

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: As the CTO hits the deck, a psionic rift of blinding orange light engulfs her, and she vanishes.

OPS_Meelor says:
XO/CMO: Shall I beam the CTO and CMO into a confined area of sickbay?

OPS_Meelor says:
CMO: When you get that bug out of her, you can discuss acceptable with me.

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: Simultaneously, a similar rift appears in the Brig and engulfs the unconscious Skyler.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::turns incredulous to where the CTO used to be:: Self : What the..?

CNS_Richardson says:
::moves to the CMO:: CMO: I should go along, I think

FCO_O`Rourke says:
::thinks "What the heck?"::

CMO_Biishe says:
XO:  I was treating her when there was some surge of energy running through her.  She sat up feeling great and basically waltzed out of sickbay before we could say anything.

CNS_Richardson says:
::stops, startled::

CMO_Biishe says:
::Nods and Tari::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
OPS : What just happened?

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Zachary Marshall> ::Stares in surprise::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
All : Anyone?

FCO_O`Rourke says:
XO: It appeared that the CTO just vanished , sir

TO_Eldad says:
::Stands, staring at the cell:: *Bridge* Some thing is going on in the brig, some sort of a rift is surrounding Skyler..

OPS_Meelor says:
XO: You got me...

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Ens. SO> XO: A psionic energy rift appeared here, and in the brig. Sir. The intruder is gone.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
SO : Can you track it?

CMO_Biishe says:
::Grabs Tari's arm::  CNS:  Did you feel that?

CNS_Richardson says:
CMO: I... felt something; not sure what it was

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Ens. SO> XO: No, sir.

CMO_Biishe says:
OPS:  Check the brig for Skyler.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::grumbles:: All : Would anyone have any idea of what just went on here, and how we can act on it, and get our CTO back?

CEO_Hull says:
<Duty Engineer>: How is the Impulse Engine inspection going Ensign Tills? I haven’t heard anything from that damage control team as yet? Get a status report

FCO_O`Rourke says:
::shakes head in the negative::

CMO_Biishe says:
XO:  Your guess is as good as ours, but I would leap to say that there might be some connection to the Vulcan.  ::Lifts her hand::  I don't know how.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::bang his hand on the railing::

CNS_Richardson says:
::nods:: XO: I felt something... not sure what it was.... I'll see if I can detect any residual effect

CNS_Richardson says:
::scrunches up her face again, concentrating::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Zachary Marshall> XO: Tell me, Commander, does this happen often?

FCO_O`Rourke says:
::wonders if the XO remembers about the engines::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::nods:: CNS : Work with the SO ::turns to Marshall:: Marshall : On this ship? Occasionally...

OPS_Meelor says:
::glances at the CNS:: XO: Maybe I should phaser her too...

FCO_O`Rourke says:
*Engineering* report, how goes repairs ?

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Shinar> *CNS* Hey Doc ...

MO_Angel says:
*CMO*:  From the readings we took, it appears the damaged tissue quickly rejuvenated on its own as well as an increase in her energy.

CNS_Richardson says:
::nods, stopping her concentration, and moves over to the SO, then stops:: *Shinar* Yes?

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::frowns at the OPS officer::

CEO_Hull says:
<Duty Engineer>: Aye Sir, Also the diagnostics are complete, the m/arc is showing slight damage on the matter and antimatter injectors, and the PTC's show slight degradation as well Sir, should only take about an hour to repair, then a restart

MO_Angel says:
*CMO*:  One more thing... there seems there was some form of psionic energy coming from her cerebral cortex.

CEO_Hull says:
*FCO*: We should be ready for a restart of the warp core in about an hour

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Shinar> ::In the Lounge, having found a comm. unit on the wall:: *CNS* I was wondering if you'd like to join me for some breakfa ... ::Looks at the time:: ... lunc ... ::Rethinks:: ... brunch?

CMO_Biishe says:
*MO*:  Latent abilities?  Natural?

MO_Angel says:
*CMO*:  Unknown.

CMO_Biishe says:
::Sighs::  *MO*:  Thank you.

OPS_Meelor says:
::mocks the XO and frowns back at him::

FCO_O`Rourke says:
XO: Engineering reports they should be able to restart the engines in about an hour, sir

CNS_Richardson says:
::gets a very surprised look on her face:: *Shinar* Ummm, now is not the best of times.... but I'll take a rain check. Have... brunch... without me, ok?

CMO_Biishe says:
::Turns to her husband::  XO:  Did you catch all of that?

CEO_Hull says:
<Duty Engineer>: Lets get some work crews on the PTC's I want a restart in 1 hour 10 minutes

Host AGM_Selan says:
<Shinar> ::Remains quiet for a moment:: *CNS* All right ... your loss.

CEO_Hull says:
<Duty Engineer> CEO: Aye Sir

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
FCO : Excellent... But it's not like we have somewhere to go to yet.... OPS,TO : Release the security measures on the ship.. Call Arcadia and let them know what happened... Let's try to get things back to normal..

MO_Angel says:
::Pauses as something comes to her and checks it out.::

CNS_Richardson says:
::shakes her head, thinking briefly that this ship has fallen through the rabbit hole, and turns her attention back to the SO::

MO_Angel says:
::With a nod she contacts the doctor::

FCO_O`Rourke says:
XO: Perhaps in that hour Science might discover a clue ?

OPS_Meelor says:
::nods:: XO: Aye sir... ::heads back towards his console::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::nods:: CMO : I did... Not like there's much we can do except study those readings.. And try to locate our missing CTO somehow..

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
FCO : We can only hope..

MO_Angel says:
*CMO*:  One other piece of information.  There is a similarity here and the readings taken from the CSO and CNS.  :: Does not mention the doctor::

FCO_O`Rourke says:
::nods::

CMO_Biishe says:
*MO*:  Thank you.

CMO_Biishe says:
XO:  Well, that verifies that there is at least some tie in, just not exactly what it is.

OPS_Meelor says:
::sits at his console and contacts the Starbase describing their situation::

CEO_Hull says:
::Walks over from the CEO station in ME to the dilithium rearticulating frame and opens the draw and pulls out the draw, looking at the crystals, then resecures the drawer::

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CMO : I wasn't thrilled to have the Vulcan return with us... I wasn't sure why.. now, i know..

CMO_Biishe says:
::Frowns:: XO:  You do?

CMO_Biishe says:
::Frowns again::  XO:  There needs to be more...  consider what was said when we last saw the Vulcan.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CMO : Well, if he's behind this, and Skyler's attacks, he's up to no good.. That is all i need to know.

Host AGM_Selan says:
ACTION: Meanwhile, on a distant world of beauty and wonder, the now conscious CTO & Skyler appear from the orange rift in a sunny, flowering field ...

CTO_Ryan says:
::Looks to Skyler:: Skyler: Okay, what is this place and why am I here with YOU?

 Host AGM_Selan says:
<Skyler> ::Looks around, grits his teeth at the CTO and prepares to strike when he senses something, and looks to the nearby rocky outcropping. Suddenly kneels::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Watches as Skyler kneels::

CTO_Ryan says:
Skyler: What are you doing?  ::Puzzled::

CTO_Ryan says:
::Looks to where Skyler was looking::

Host AGM_Selan says:
<The Vulcan> ::Dressed in elaborate, silky clothing and sitting cross-legged on the rocky outcropping:: CTO: Ah, Lieutenant Ryan ... you've arrived. I'm glad you have done what your crewmates have refused to, and have accepted the future ... welcome to the fold, dear, welcome to the fold ...
