Host ACTD_JohnSea says:
Resume USS Andromeda "Federation Vice" 10708.19
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
All: I have received messages and I have both good news and bad news.
Host ACTD_JohnSea says:
Scene: The crew is in the Mission Briefing Room after the CO has received orders from Starfleet Personnel
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
All: First the bad news, if you wish to call the bad. It depends on the perspective.
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
All: I am resigning from Starfleet and I will pursue a new career in the Vulcan Science Academy. This is my last mission as the Andromeda Captain.
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
All: Then the good news.
OPS_Vaebn says:
::Looks at the Vulcan Captain::
CIV_Lt_Storm says:
:: Frowns and feels saddened.  She had come to like the captain.::
CEO_Lt_Conor says:
::Shifts slightly in his seat::
OPS_Vaebn says:
CO: May I ask why sir? ::puzzled face::
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
OPS: I have served my years in Starfleet and I wish to start a career in a different path.
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
All: Our Chief Engineering Officer, Lieutenant Conor, has been assigned to our new Executive Officer.
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
All: After my resignation he will be in charge of the Andromeda for the time being.
CIV_Lt_Storm says:
:: Lifts a brow and looks over at the chief.::
OPS_Vaebn says:
CO: I see. ::Vulcan only race I never will understand although similar blood runs in Rihannsu and Vulcans::
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
All: Another good news is that I have received preliminary report on a new science officer who is going through the paperwork to get a new assignment on Andromeda.
CIV_Lt_Storm says:
:: Begins to wonder if her temporary assignment here will soon come to an end.::
OPS_Vaebn says:
ALL: Oh nice a larger family of andromeda is to be.
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
All: That's all for the announcements.
CIV_Lt_Storm says:
:: Nods her head, nothing really to say.  Change was part of starfleet and definitely part of her life.::
OPS_Vaebn says:
CO: I regret that I will not have a chance to serve with you longer but I wish to thank you for the time I spent till now as your officer.
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
OPS: I have always enjoyed working with the Andromeda crew.
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
All: So, let's get back to business.
CEO_Lt_Conor says:
CO: It's been an honour serving with you sir. If I can live up to half of your reputation, I think we should be fine.
 
OPS_Vaebn says:
::Nods to himself, enjoyed... How strange hearing that from a Vulcan::
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
CEO: You have plenty of experience, you are a reliable officer and I fully trust you to succeed in your new position.
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
All: All that said, we still have a problem in our hands.
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
All: This mission is not yet over.
CIV_Lt_Storm says:
:: Nods, unable to say good-bye and turns her mind to the current task.::
OPS_Vaebn says:
CO: So what is next?
Host ACTD_JohnSea says:
Scene: The Andromeda crew is pondering their next move after their investigation on the pirate ship and discovery of the bomb on the ship and the bomb making facility on the nearby solar system
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
All: It seems obvious we must investigate the bomb making facility.
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
All: Any other opinions?
OPS_Vaebn says:
CO: Can we use one of the shuttles form the pirate ship to go to the system as an away mission to get us more easy access to see who is making the bombs?
OPS_Vaebn says:
CO: And me as a romulan would help I guess since I could play someone form the Empire interested in such a device?
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
OPS: I think we should not go there without the protection of Andromeda's shields.
CIV_Lt_Storm says:
CO: Or we could take on the roles of the pirates... unless they are expecting them to be dead.
XO_Lt_Conor says:
CO: We need to shut down that factory and find of some sort of way of disposing safely of these particles
 
OPS_Vaebn says:
XO: Yes but getting deep in to the facility will help I guess?
Host Energy_Cop says:
::eating his ham sandwhich, poking around the cafeteria::
CIV_Lt_Storm says:
All: Where is our energy cop these days?  I had wanted him to take a look at that device.
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
CIV: Could we beam the device from the pirate ship to Andromeda safely?
OPS_Vaebn says:
CIV: I guess feeding...
CIV_Lt_Storm says:
CO: My first thought is highly unlikely.  I have no idea how it is set up, which is why the cops help could be beneficial.  If it is technology of his people, he might have answers.
Host Energy_Cop says:
::shapeshifts into a chair to amuse himself::
Host Energy_Cop says:
::moves himself when someone tries to sit on him:: <Hapless Ensign> ::falling:: Aiieeeeeeeee! *Crash*
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
CIV: I see.
OPS_Vaebn says:
ALL: So let's get it up here and have him tell us all this instead of draining our power and food. ::Smiles::
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
All: It seems that whatever course we take, we must know more about the facility.
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
All: Everyone return to the bridge. We will go to the orbit of the planet.
CIV_Lt_Storm says:
CO: I know time is critical, but if we make one mistake with this...
CIV_Lt_Storm says:
CO: May I take the energy cop to see the device and gets his opinion?
OPS_Vaebn says:
Co: I can set our shields so we will look on sensors as a romulan trade ship?
OPS_Vaebn says:
CO: Can help us get in more easy.
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
OPS: Can we really do that? From my experience it sounds unlikely we could really do that.
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
CIV: Fine. However you have to do it real quick.
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
CIV: Do site-to-site transports.
CIV_Lt_Storm says:
CO: Understood...
OPS_Vaebn says:
CO: If you remember I detected a Rihannsu cloak device on the Pirate ship.
OPS_Vaebn says:
CO: I can use that in more that one way.
CIV_Lt_Storm says:
:: Turns to leave.::  *Energy cop*: Please meet me in transporter room one.
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
OPS: Well, if you get a permission from our XO, you may go ahead but I doubt it.
CIV_Lt_Storm says:
<delete>
CIV_Lt_Storm says:
:: Nods:: *energy cop*: Prepare to be beamed to the pirate vessel.
CIV_Lt_Storm says:
*TrC*: Please lock onto my signal as well as the energy cop and beam us to the pirate ships cargo bay.
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
::Enters the bridge::
OPS_Vaebn says:
XO: Sir with your permission I can set it up in 15 min.
Host Energy_Cop says:
Action: The Energy Cop and the Dr arrive on the pirate ship next to the bomb
XO_Lt_Conor says:
OPS: Sounds awfully short time to do that, I'd say at least 8 hours plus to retrofit. Plus its highly illegal
OPS_Vaebn says:
XO: Sir I am a Romulan, I know my peoples technology trust me.
CIV_Lt_Storm says:
@ EC: My apologize for the quick move, but we have limited time.  :: motions with her hands toward the device::  Is this technology familiar to you at all?
OPS_Vaebn says:
::Walks to the bridge ops station::
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
*Shuttlebay* Prepare a shuttle capable of high warp speeds.
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
<SB> *CO* Aye. Working on it.
 
XO_Lt_Conor says:
OPS: It would take a lot longer then 15 minutes despite your knowledge of the technology. We can't afford to loose that time
OPS_Vaebn says:
Computer: activate OPS station access vaebn 112333 alpha.
Host Energy_Cop says:
CIV: The metal is nexian it is what we use to contain omega particles
XO_Lt_Conor says:
::Takes the CO's chair::
OPS_Vaebn says:
::Takes his station at OPS and sits looking at the LCARS display...::
Host Energy_Cop says:
Civ: The metal reaches into subspace in order to prevent contamination and poisoning of organic races however, this one is designed to allow poisoning
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
::While working on a console with the communications, sees the XO taking the central chair::
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
XO: That's your place now. I am leaving. You have the command.
Host Energy_Cop says:
::makes a few adjustments after replicating energy tools from his body:: Civ: There the contamination is stopped
XO_Lt_Conor says:
CO: Thank you sir, its been an honour
CIV_Dr_Storm says:
@ :: Nods::  EC: Someone wanted this crew to die?
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
::Nods at the XO:: XO: Likewise.
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
::Takes a turbo lift to his quarters::
Host Energy_Cop says:
Civ: This appears to be a bomb, it is definitely of Nexian design there are apparently more of my people involved in this conspiracy ::frowns and radiates anger::
CIV_Dr_Storm says:
@ EC: But... it seems to be a bit distract and complex for the simple desire to destroy a starbase.  Or am I missing something?
Host Energy_Cop says:
Civ: Yes apparently the plan was for the crew of this ship to die then the automatic controls would take over and send the ship to your starbase 50 where the bomb would explode
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
::Upon arriving to his quarters, changes to a civilian clothing::
OPS_Vaebn says:
::Accesses Lcars database and starts playing::
Host Energy_Cop says:
Civ: This is refined weapons grade material
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
::Leaves his quarters for the last time and takes a turbo lift to the shuttle bay::
CIV_Dr_Storm says:
@EC: Yes... but why so much work?
XO_Lt_Conor says:
*CIV* What is your progress with our guest?
Host Energy_Cop says:
Civ: The Omega particle here ::points:: is mixed with the antimatter here ::points:: and the tacyons here ::points :: and the subspace multidimensional metal here and boom
Host Energy_Cop says:
Scene: The OPS' Lcars displays the pirate ship and the various systems of the Andromeda
OPS_Vaebn says:
::Reding some texts on plant life on his ops panel::
CIV_Dr_Storm says:
@ *XO*: He apparently recognizes the device and believes more then one of his people are involved.
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
::Arrives at the shuttle bay, entering a shuttle that will be heading to Starbase 50::
XO_Lt_Conor says:
OPS: Research a way to allow us to tow the pirate ship at warp
OPS_Vaebn says:
XO: yes ::turns off the data search and access sensor data::
Host Energy_Cop says:
Action:  A Galaxy Class starship arrives to take the Captain home and drops off the new Science Officer
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
::Surprised at a new starship arriving but happy to have a faster ride home::
CIV_Dr_Storm says:
@ EC: Can you tell me anything more about it?  Like how to disassemble it or remove it...
Host Energy_Cop says:
Action: After 10 minutes of replicating complex tools made of pure energy and shapeshifting his body into various configurations, the Energy COP disarms the bomb
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
::Instead of flying across all the light-years, the shuttle simply departs from the Andromeda and docks to the Federation Galaxy class starship::
OPS_Vaebn says:
XO: We need about 47_ increase in tractors and we will need to set 24 subspace interferometers to remove the omega radiation and help us tractor the ship.
CIV_Dr_Storm says:
@ :: Slowly shakes her head as she watches, impressed.::  EC: I think I just became envious.
XO_Lt_Conor says:
OPS: Have the necessary modifications ready then just in case
Host Energy_Cop says:
CIv: Its a gift, not being tied to a single shape
CIV_Dr_Storm says:
@ *CO*: Lieutenant, the bomb has been disabled.
OPS_Vaebn says:
XO: I need an engineering team to set hose subspace interferometers first.
Host CO_Capt_Sketek says:
::Walking along Galaxy class corridors, taking the last look of the Andromeda::
XO_Lt_Conor says:
OPS: Take what resources you need to have these modifications ready
CIV_Dr_Storm says:
@ EC: I can see that... :: nods toward the dismantled device.::  Thank you.  :: begins to fill him in on what has transpired so far, including the loss of their captain and their next destination.::
OPS_Vaebn says:
Xo: Yes
Host Energy_Cop says:
::opens up a pack of M and Ms::

OPS_Vaebn says:
::Starts ordering personnel in engineering team to set the needed interferometers and starts to set the tractors to needed power and frequency.
Host Energy_Cop says:
