Host John_Sea says:
Resume USS Andromeda "The Gaia Agenda" Part III SD 10108.12

Host CO_Kalla says:
::On the bridge in CO chair.::

CSO_Sketek says:
::At science.::

Host John_Sea says:
Action: The USS Andromeda and the Liberator are en route to Gaia IV, ETA 15 minutes

XO_Miller says:
::On the bridge, finishing up the final report from all departments.::  CO:  I'm transferring these plans over to you.

EO_Z`heta says:
::Working In main engineering with some other EO's on the shuttle's engine schematics.::

CIV_Deimon says:
::Sitting at science II looking over the bridge, glancing down at a padd, considering his next move which he needs to make soon so as to make this mission run as smooth as possible... and then remembers something the FCO told him.::

CSO_Sketek says:
CO: Initiating full scans on target system.

Host CO_Kalla says:
XO: Have we found out which vessel to use to go down on the planet?

Lt_More says:
::Returning from the CO's quarters.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Looks up the reports on her screen.::

XO_Miller says:
CO:  We will be taking the Perseus.  There will be shuttles for most of the other crewmembers.

Host CO_Kalla says:
XO: Excellent. Mr Durron, You will pilot the Perseus going down.

CSO_Sketek says:
CO: Target system astronomical information confirmed to match previous data. Picking up military satellites on orbit, calculating the orbits and attack path.

Lt_More says:
::Gets into a turbolift and moves to fit.:: Self: For a big ship there are small turbolifts... TL: Bridge.

FCO_Durron says:
::Is at the helm.:: CO: Yes, sir.

XO_Miller says:
FCO:  Are all modifications in place?

Lt_More says:
::Arrives on the Bridge of the Andy.::

CIV_Deimon says:
*Ens Terrelli*: Dack, would you mind making sure there are some Starfleet camo uniforms and proper makeup utilities available to us before we leave?

Lt_More says:
::Looks around the bridge and folds his hands behind his back.::

Lt_More says:
::Walks over to the Command area and nods at the CO and XO.::

XO_Miller says:
Lt_More:  Welcome, Lieutenant.

CIV_Deimon says:
<Terrelli> *Deimon*: No problem... ::Already in the shuttle bay walks over to a replicator and starts making the things to add to the packs of the crew already loaded in the Perseus.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
CSO: Ok, Good. Make sure to coordinate with the Liberator to destroy those satellites as soon as possible.

Host CO_Kalla says:
Adam: Welcome on the bridge.

Host John_Sea says:
Action: USS Liberator has upgraded alert status to general quarters, all its defensive and offensive systems are now active in preparation for engagement.

FCO_Durron says:
XO: Yes sir.  all modifications are complete.

Lt_More says:
CO, XO: Sir, Ma'am. May I take a seat? ::Motions to the CNS chair.::

XO_Miller says:
FCO:  Excellent.  Nice work.

XO_Miller says:
Lt_More:  Please do.

CIV_Deimon says:
::Seeing tactical empty, steps up to his old post and looks down to see what Senek was working on.::

FCO_Durron says:
XO: Thank you sir.

Host CO_Kalla says:
Adam: Of course.

Lt_More says:
::Sits down and slides the console towards him.::

CSO_Sketek says:
CIV: Please assist me with laying out this tactical attack pattern.

Host CO_Kalla says:
Adam: You will join us on the Perseus.

FCO_Durron says:
::Checks console.:: XO: We are under 15 minutes till.

CIV_Deimon says:
CSO: Sure. ::Looks down and brings up some of the plans already started and feeds them into the computer, looking them over.:: Self: Now this feels like old times. ::Smiles.::

Lt_More says:
::Nods at the CO.::

CSO_Sketek says:
COMM: USS Liberator: I am transmitting our sensor data and I expect you to transmit your data as well. Coordinate with tactical and flight control departments in executing the attack plan.

XO_Miller says:
FCO:  Acknowledged.  Upon our arrival, keep us clear of all weapons' satellites.

FCO_Durron says:
XO: Yes sir.

CSO_Sketek says:
CO: Recommend red alert.

Host John_Sea says:
<Liberator> Comm: USS Andromeda: Acknowledged.

CIV_Deimon says:
CO: The tactical satellites have detected us, I am scanning and updating tactical flight plans and firing patterns now

Host CO_Kalla says:
CSO: Yes, go ahead.

Lt_More says:
CO, XO: May I suggest that we take a few smaller shuttles, such as the two type 9's in the first wave?... They are smaller targets, and then if one doesn't make it, the other one will.

CSO_Sketek says:
::Raises red alert.:: *Shipwide*: Red alert. All hands to battle stations.

XO_Miller says:
Lt_More:  Sounds feasible... agreed.

Host CO_Kalla says:
XO: So we take two shuttles down.

CSO_Sketek says:
FCO: I take it, the flight patterns we are using are clear. Execute them when we drop out of warp.

Lt_More says:
::Checks that the two type nines are flight ready on his console.::

FCO_Durron says:
CSO: Yes Sir.

Host CO_Kalla says:
CIV: Take care of reloading the supplies onto two shuttles.

XO_Miller says:
CO:  We will take the Perseus, along with two of the smaller shuttles that can clear our way.

Host CO_Kalla says:
XO: Two extra, hmmm. We risk being scattered.

EO_Z`heta says:
::Grabs a PADD with the day's orders and notices that Andromeda may have to try a low warp flight o a solar system.::

Lt_More says:
CO, XO: Better scattered than destroyed, Ma'am, sir.

Host John_Sea says:
Action: The Andromeda and the Liberator have reached the edge of the Gaia system, the Liberator drops to impulse.

Host CO_Kalla says:
More: Yes.

XO_Miller says:
::Nods to Lieutenant More.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
XO: Who will be our two other pilots then?

EO_Z`heta says:
Self: Ok, it's definitely a risk... 

CSO_Sketek says:
FCO: Execute flight pattern Satellite ballet alpha.

FCO_Durron says:
XO: We have reached the edge of the system. Preparing to drop to impulse at your order.

EO_Z`heta says:
::Starts working on a way to reroute power to hull integrity systems.::

XO_Miller says:
CO:  I'll transfer the list of the other pilots who will be taking any of the other shuttles.

XO_Miller says:
FCO:  Understood.  Drop to impulse.

Host CO_Kalla says:
CSO: Fire at will.

FCO_Durron says:
CSO/XO: Yes sir ::Drops to impulse and begins flight pattern.::

CSO_Sketek says:
CO: Firing phasers at satellite targets.

CIV_Deimon says:
::Taps up orders for the crew currently loading the Perseus to go ahead and quickly move it off and to the two different assigned shuttles.::

XO_Miller says:
CO:  With your permission, myself and Lt. More can pilot the other two shuttles.

CIV_Deimon says:
CO: I've got the shield protecting the forth planet of the system on sensors.

Host CO_Kalla says:
XO: Sounds ideal. ::Looks at Adam.:: Adam: I assume that is not in violation of your status as observer.

Lt_More says:
CO: No Ma'am, I'm ordered to do as you say.

CSO_Sketek says:
::Fires photon torpedoes on key satellites.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
CIV: Excellent.

Host CO_Kalla says:
XO: Do you have the best landing coordinates?

Host CO_Kalla says:
CIV: Please make sure that all three shuttles are equipped for the trip.

XO_Miller says:
CO:  Yes.  I'll transfer over the best calculated position.

Host John_Sea says:
Action: One the main viewer, Gaia IV comes into view, ringed by military satellites, and glowing with a planetary deflector shield, the Liberator takes up the lead in front of the Andromeda in an arrowhead formation.

CSO_Sketek says:
::Continuing rapid phaser fire.::

CIV_Deimon says:
::As the captain speaks the final confirmation from loading teams arrives that they are in fact packed and ready to go and are about to make a triple check of everything::
.
CIV_Deimon says:
CO: I'd say they're ready to go. ::Smiles.::

Host John_Sea says:
Action: The ship shakes, as it is rocked by torpedo hits... the deflector shields light up with multicolor flares as the heat dissipates into space.

CIV_Deimon says:
::Checks shields and sees that they are holding and prepares a torpedo spread.::

CSO_Sketek says:
CIV: How much fire is coming from the satellites and how much from the surface?

XO_Miller says:
::Grabs hold of his console as the ship is rocked.::

CIV_Deimon says:
CO: I want to make multiple runs firing torpedo spreads timed to go off when they can do the most damage to the most  satellites at one time

FCO_Durron says:
::Mutters to console.::

XO_Miller says:
CSO:  Are we doing any sort of damage to those satellites?

Host CO_Kalla says:
CIV: Coordinate with CSO. He has tac.

CIV_Deimon says:
CSO: None from the surface, it's all from the satellites, we take those out, and we're home free..... till we run into the next problem.

EO_Z`heta says:
*FCO*: I've been looking at the hull's tolerances and if we try the low warp maneuver I recommend that you try placing Gaia between us and the planet, and parallel to the planet’s magnetic axis. this way Gaia will shield off most of the solar wind particles that my damage our vessel at warp.

Host John_Sea says:
Action: The space around Gaia IV is lit up with turbulent, violent explosions as the Excelsior Refit class Liberator and the Andromeda engage the satellites and begin to clear them out.

FCO_Durron says:
*EO*: I do not think we are going to try a low warp maneuver. sorry.  Sounds like a good idea, though.

Host CO_Kalla says:
XO: Is it about time to get the shuttles ready and start getting personnel onboard?

EO_Z`heta says:
*FCO*: Understood, sir. But I do think it would work...

XO_Miller says:
CO:  Yes, once we have some of the crew from the Liberator here onboard to take over.

FCO_Durron says:
*EO*: I agree with you but we also have to worry about gravity.

CIV_Deimon says:
::Looks over at the CSO and wonders what the plan is.::

CSO_Sketek says:
CO/XO/CIV: All the satellites have been neutralized.

OPS-Exeter says:
::Enters the Bridge half a sleep.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
XO: Yes.

Host John_Sea says:
Action: Gaia IV's military satellite ring is now orbiting space debris.

Lt_More says:
::Looks up from his console and realizes that the Andy is a really efficient crew, but then again, Kalla would expect no less...::

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Sees Exeter.:: OPS: Get to your station and hail the Liberator to send our replacement crew over now.

EO_Z`heta says:
*FCO*: You're correct. I'll look into it, since Gaya is not a high-massive planet, it should be easy to deal with that.

XO_Miller says:
OPS:  So nice of you to join us today Lieutenant.

OPS-Exeter says:
::Yawns.:: CO: Aye,a ye, Cap'n.

OPS-Exeter says:
XO: Hey, You try running triple shifts for a time… SIR!

CIV_Deimon says:
Self: That was too easy...

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Glares at Exeter.:: OPS: And Lt. I expect my officers to report for duty on time.

FCO_Durron says:
*EO*: The need for a warp maneuver is now nullified.  we are in-system and have cleared the satellites.

CIV_Deimon says:
::Shakes his head at his old friends never ending antics.::

XO_Miller says:
OPS:  If the job is too much for you, you can always be relieved.  Is that understood, Lieutenant? ::Agitated.::

OPS-Exeter says:
::Gets behind his station and opens a channel to the Liberator.:: CO: Channel is open to the Liberator, Ma'am.

EO_Z`heta says:
*FCO*: I'm pleased to hear of our success. Thank you, sir.

FCO_Durron says:
::Begins figuring a high orbit and prepares to lay it in.:: CSO: Permission to enter orbit?

OPS-Exeter says:
::Looks at his XO and decides not to make a point of it.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
COMM: Liberator: Captain, we are ready to receive our replacement bridge crew now. And good work with those satellites.

XO_Miller says:
OPS:  I asked you a question... I expect an answer.

FCO_Durron says:
*EO*: If you want we can talk about in-system warp later. but now I think we should be ready to go planet-side.

Host John_Sea says:
<USS Liberator> Comm: USS Andromeda: Sending Command crew now, good luck Captain and good hunting.

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Decides not to tell Exeter off too, as XO Miller seems to be dealing with it.::

EO_Z`heta says:
*FCO*: Ok Sir!

CIV_Deimon says:
XO: I'm going to head on down and do a personal account of the shuttles and marines real quick, if you don’t mind... ::Takes a step towards the turbolift.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
*CEO* Our replacements are arriving, Lt. Rogers. Please make your way to the shuttlebay.

Host CO_Kalla says:
OPS: Close channel.

XO_Miller says:
CIV:  Granted Wes.

OPS-Exeter says:
XO: Sir, I don't have the stomach to start a discussion with the Commander, sir.

CIV_Deimon says:
::Steps onto the turbolift and presses the panel so that it will move a little faster than normal.:: TL: Shuttlebay.

Host CO_Kalla says:
*EO* Please get ready for the trip to the planet.

OPS-Exeter says:
CO: Aye,sir. Channel is closed, sir. ::Closes the comm.::

CEO_Rogers says:
*CO* yes ma'am, thank you for reminding me...

XO_Miller says:
OPS:  I suggest you get a stomach because I want an answer immediately.

EO_Z`heta says:
*CO*: At once, Captain!

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Sees replacements arriving.:: Commander Willis: Good to see you and your crew here.

CIV_Deimon says:
::In a matter of moments Deimon steps out onto the deck and takes 10 steps right into the shuttlebay.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
All: Ok, it's off to the shuttles.

Lt_More says:
::Pushes the console aside and stands, slipping his PADD and the downloaded files into one of his pockets.::

CSO_Sketek says:
CO: Will anyone remain on the bridge?

FCO_Durron says:
FCO Imatz: Keep her steady.  ::Exits seat and makes for the turbolift::

OPS-Exeter says:
::Stands up and looks at the CO.:: CO: Permission to be relieved, sir? ::Ignoring the XO.::

Lt_More says:
::Nods at the CO.::

CIV_Deimon says:
::Quickly steps onto the first shuttle and digs through a random pack checking everything and is quickly satisfied that everything is there, including the camo uniforms the FCO suggested.::

EO_Z`heta says:
CEO: Ma'am, the captain just requested me on the away mission. With your permission I'll be getting my gear ready.

XO_Miller says:
::Looks over at OPS.::  OPS:  You are relieved and confined to quarters!

Host CO_Kalla says:
CSO: We have able replacements here.

CEO_Rogers says:
::Gets up from her work and grabs the bag she prepared ahead of time and heads for the turbolift.:: EO: Yes, of course, go right ahead.

OPS-Exeter says:
::Still Ignoring the XO.:: CO: Sir?

CSO_Sketek says:
CO: Understood. ::Talking to an SO that is replacing him.::

Lt_More says:
::Walks up to the turbolift and waits for Kalla.::

XO_Miller says:
OPS:  You want to make it the brig, Lieutenant?

EO_Z`heta says:
::Leaves main engineering and heads to his quarters to get the bag needed on the away mission.::

FCO_Durron says:
::Enters the turbolift.:: TL: Deck 6.

Host John_Sea says:
Action: Security waits by the turbolift, watching.

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Stands up.:: OPS: Lt. the way I see this you have developed a behavior problem: We are going to a dangerous situation. How can I trust you?

CSO_Sketek says:
::Worried about the direction of discussion on the bridge.::

XO_Miller says:
CSO:  Have security escort Lt.JG Exeter to the brig.

CSO_Sketek says:
XO: Aye, sir.

OPS-Exeter says:
::Looking at the CO puzzled.:: CO: Sir?

FCO_Durron says:
::Arrives on Deck 6 jogs to his quarters and grabs his pack and stuff.::

EO_Z`heta says:
::Enters his quarters, grabs the bag and heads back to turbolift:: 

Host Sec_Law says:
OPS: You are relieved of duty and under arrest for insubordination.

Lt_More says:
::Looks at the proceedings, and wonders why it's happening, but decides It's none of his business and stands by the turbolift, duffel bag in hand, waiting for the others.::

CIV_Deimon says:
*CO*: Deimon to Kalla. Umm, I know this a little late notice, but I just wanted to tell you so you could put it into the plan, I have added some camo uniforms and makeup to each of our packs, they're small, so they fit fine, we just have to pull them out and put them on.

OPS-Exeter says:
::Still confused.:: ALL: Insubordination???????

EO_Z`heta says:
::Enters the turbolift.:: Computer: Deck 20.

CIV_Deimon says:
*CO*: A good idea suggested by Mr. Durron.

Host Sec_Law says:
Action: OPS is removed from the bridge and placed in the brig.

CEO_Rogers says:
::Rides the turbolift down to deck 20, and steps out, slinging her bag over her shoulder.::

XO_Miller says:
CO:  Sorry about that, Captain.  Is everyone ready to go?

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Even Kalla's brow shows wrinkle now.:: XO: Perhaps we can proceed as planned now.

CSO_Sketek says:
::As the incident on the bridge has cleared, he leaves for shuttle bay.::

FCO_Durron says:
::Runs back to the turbolift and puts on his sunglasses.:: TL: Deck 20, shuttle bay.

Host CO_Kalla says:
*CIV*: Bring the equipment. Sounds a good idea.

Host CO_Kalla says:
XO: No criticism of you. You did what was necessary.

CIV_Deimon says:
*CO*: No need to bring it, it's already loaded. ::Smiles to self.::

XO_Miller says:
CO:  Shall we proceed down to the shuttlebay?  ::Begins to head to the turbolift.::

CSO_Sketek says:
::In turbolift.::

Lt_More says:
::Notes that the XO and CO are heading to the turbolift, and steps inside.::

Lt_More says:
::Nods to Sketek.:: CSO: Sir.

CSO_Sketek says:
::Nods to More.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
XO: Yes, finally. ::Enters the turbolift.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
*CSO* Get everyone evenly distributed in the shuttles.

CSO_Sketek says:
*CO*: I'll do that. Should we also separate command staff to different shuttles as a security precaution?

Host CO_Kalla says:
*CSO* Yes.

Host CO_Kalla says:
::The turbolift arrives at shuttlebay.::

XO_Miller says:
::Steps out of the turbolift as they arrive at the shuttlebay.::

EO_Z`heta says:
::Arrives at shuttlebay, looks around and feels the adrenaline that precedes a glorious battle.::

Lt_More says:
::Arrives at the shuttlebay and steps out of the Turbolift.::

CEO_Rogers says:
::Looks between the shuttles and wonders which one she should be on, trying not to think of what will be happening soon on the planet below..::

FCO_Durron says:
::Arrives in the shuttle bay and looks around wondering what took the turbolift so long.::

Lt_More says:
::Nods to the CO.:: CO: I'll head along to my shuttle... see you planet-side, Ma'am.

XO_Miller says:
CO:  I'll see you down on the planet.  ::Heads to one of the shuttles and gets in.  Begins preparing the pre-flight check.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
All: CIV Deimon has packed camouflage equipment which I suggest we all use on the way down.

CSO_Sketek says:
*CO/CEO/FCO*: Perseus. *XO/EO/CIV*: Shuttle I. *More/CSO/CTO*: Shuttle II.

FCO_Durron says:
Lt. More/*XO*:  I need to talk to you.

EO_Z`heta says:
::Looks at CSO and nods.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
All: The best of luck.

CEO_Rogers says:
::Nods at the CSO and heads to the Perseus.::

OPS-Exeter says:
::Looking around.:: Self: Now how did I get ended here?

FCO_Durron says:
Lt. More/*XO*: I need to talk with you NOW.

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Enters the Perseus.::

XO_Miller says:
*FCO*:  Go ahead.

CIV_Deimon says:
::Stands behind the three shuttles and looks at each.::

Host Sec_Law says:
Action: Gaia IV awaits below, mysterious and deadly...

Lt_More says:
::Nods to the FCO.::

Lt_More says:
FCO: Yes?

CEO_Rogers says:
::Sits at the engineering console in the Perseus, and waits.::

CIV_Deimon says:
::Steps into the first shuttle, playing for the Perseus.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Goes to the back of the Perseus and starts applying camouflage equipment, makeup and get her gear.::

EO_Z`heta says:
::Enters shuttle I and waits.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
*XO, Adam* Let me know when you are ready to depart.

XO_Miller says:
*CO*:  Acknowledged.

EO_Z`heta says:
::Opens the bag and starts applying camouflage on to himself.::

FCO_Durron says:
Lt. More/*XO*: we are modifying the shield profile to a more aerodynamic form. This will mean quite a bit of work for you. It is likely that it will need constant modification. Keep your eye on it.

Lt_More says:
*CO*: Yes Ma'am.

Lt_More says:
FCO: Understood.

Host CO_Kalla says:
::How she hates carrying weapons. She dabs some more black under her nose.::

Lt_More says:
FCO: Is that all?

XO_Miller says:
*FCO*:  Acknowledged.  Anything else we should know?

XO_Miller says:
::Looks back and sees the EO.::  EO:  Welcome aboard Ensign.  Long time no see.

CEO_Rogers says:
::Looks in her bag and finds the camouflage stuff and starts to change gear, and apply the makeup.::

FCO_Durron says:
Lt More/*XO*:  The shuttles have been equipped with flares and chaff to distract SAWs. That is all.

EO_Z`heta says:
XO: Thank you sir. It's a pleasure to see you again.

CSO_Sketek says:
::Looks around for Lt. More::
.
XO_Miller says:
*FCO*:  Thank you Lt.  Nice work.

FCO_Durron says:
::Checks padd.:: Lt: More/*XO* Excuse me. just flares.

OPS-Exeter says:
::Sitting back waiting.:: Self: How long it's gonna take till they decide to let me out!

Lt_More says:
::Nods.::

EO_Z`heta says:
XO: Much different from the helicopter we were on, right, Sir? ::Smiles!::

Lt_More says:
::Walks over to his shuttle.::

Lt_More says:
::Wonders why he didn't think to Bring the Kuroc from the Scimitar.::

 XO_Miller says:
::Grins.::  EO:  Just a bit.

Lt_More says:
::Boards the shuttle and nods to the CSO.::

CSO_Sketek says:
More: I think we have all the equipment we need.

Lt_More says:
CSO: Sir, I hope you’re in for a bumpy ride...

FCO_Durron says:
::Heads for the Perseus he rubs the hull as he enters and heads for the FCO's station.::

Lt_More says:
CSO: Agreed.

Host CO_Kalla says:
::Dabs a bit more black on her considerable ears.::

XO_Miller says:
#::continues with his pre-flight check::

Lt_More says:
$::Takes a type two and attaches it to his belt, even though he has a type one in his pockets.::

CSO_Sketek says:
$More: Let's just hope inertial damping works.

FCO_Durron says:
@::Drops his pack by his station and begins preflight check.::

CIV_Deimon says:
#::Sitting down at the engineering console moves his chair over to the left where he can see what the XO is doing and transfers tactical there as well.::

Lt_More says:
$CSO: Yeah, you wouldn't want to be doing cartwheels...

CEO_Rogers says:
@::Dabs the last bit of black below her eyes and checks over the Pers' stats to makes sure everything is in order.::

Host Sec_Law says:
Action: All systems on the shuttles begin preflight power up.

CSO_Sketek says:
$::Takes a seat in the shuttle::

Lt_More says:
$::Goes to the front of the shuttle and begins a preflight.::

Lt_More says:
$CSO: Should you close the hatch, sir?

Host CO_Kalla says:
@*XO, Adam* Are you ready?

XO_Miller says:
#*CO*:  Ready when you are ma'am.

FCO_Durron says:
@CEO: Are you handling tac?

CEO_Rogers says:
@::Nods.:: FCO: Yes I am.

EO_Z`heta says:
#::Takes a seat on shuttle I.::

Host Sec_Law says:
Action: The shuttles' flight boards hum to life as the impulse engines ignite with fresh hydrogen.

XO_Miller says:
#EO:  Keep an eye on sensor for me.  Coordinate with Wes.

FCO_Durron says:
@CEO: good.  I want you to keep an eye on shields.

CSO_Sketek says:
$::Closes the hatch.::

FCO_Durron says:
@CEO: They have been modified to a more aerodynamic profile and will likely need constant modification.

Host CO_Kalla says:
@FCO: When all three shuttles are ready get OPS to open shuttle bay doors.

CIV_Deimon says:
#XO: Ok, well, here's to a landing you can walk away from.

CEO_Rogers says:
@::Nods again.:: FCO: Will do ::Brings up the stats on the shields.::

FCO_Durron says:
@CO: Aye.

Lt_More says:
$CSO: ::Nods.:: I think that's all, sir. If you would strap yourself in, I'll take us down.

CSO_Sketek says:
$More: I think we are ready.

XO_Miller says:
#::Grins.::  CIV:  Thanks!  Let's hope we can walk after this!

Host CO_Kalla says:
@::Takes her seat, all done up for the mission.::

CIV_Deimon says:
#XO: I'm ready to rig us for a silent running and I'm going to see if I can't use the sensors output to create a makeshift cloak, at least the sensors will project us as a blank spot so maybe they won't spot us, a blank spot calls a lot less attention than a shuttle

Lt_More says:
$CSO: Hold on, sir.

Host CO_Kalla says:
@FCO:  Get those doors open, we will lead the way.

Lt_More says:
$::Brings the shuttle’s repulsors online, and has the impulse drives standing by.::

FCO_Durron says:
@*OPS Andy*: We are ready here.  You may open shuttle bay doors at your convenience.

XO_Miller says:
#CIV:  Nice work.  You also have permission to fire at will on anything that looks like a target.

EO_Z`heta says:
#XO: Understood, sir.

CIV_Deimon says:
#::Finds the class I sensors have a very unsupporting sensor output.:: Self: Well, it was worth a try.

Host Sec_Law says:
Action: The shuttlebay doors slowly open, revealing a curtain of stars

Host CO_Kalla says:
@FCO: Take us out.

XO_Miller says:
#*OPS*:  Shuttle one, ready for departure.

EO_Z`heta says:
#::Sits by the sensor console.::

Lt_More says:
$::Brings the shuttle to a hovering position behind the rest.::

FCO_Durron says:
@*XO/Lt More*: I feel that I should warn you. The shield modifications are a drain on the power. Weapons have been taken off-line so that we have enough energy to land.

XO_Miller says:
#CIV/EO:  Here we go!

FCO_Durron says:
@:: Eases the Perseus out of the shuttlebay.::

Host CO_Kalla says:
@::Gets herself acquainted with the rifle in her hands.::

FCO_Durron says:
@CO: Aye.

XO_Miller says:
#::Fires up thrusters and heads out of the shuttlebay.::

Lt_More says:
$*FCO*: No weapons? Understood. ::Looks to Sketek.:: CSO: I Don't like the sound of that, keep an eye on the shields...
