Stardate 10006.19

Host AGMDave says:
<<<<<RESUME MISSION>>>>>
XO_Claymore says:
Arman: Tari knows, Let's get to work
Host CO_Morgan says:
::standing looking at one of the consoles in Ops, watching the progress of the Station through space::
CTO_Matt says:
::exits the TL and enters Ops.  He moves to the dead magician and picks it up, trying to shield it from the defensive phasers::
CSO_Vekh says:
::is making his way to the computer core to meet with CNS Savar, carrying the magician's crystal with care::
OPS_Danforth says:
::working feverishly in OPS on the computer core problem, attempting to access the mainframe::
CNS_Savar says:
::Sitting in the computer core, recovering::
SO_Washudoin says:
::Just about at the Ferengi Ship on Deck 17::
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
::Closes the program with his message to Becky and his kids and makes it to that JJ can use it if he wants to:: JJ: Very well...what do you want me to do?
EO_McDuggle says:
::Is in Computer core trying to shut it down::
CSO_Vekh says:
*SO*: Washudoin, this is Vekh, come in.
Host CO_Morgan says:
::looks over at the CTO:: CTO: It doesn't appear to consider us a threat, you can stand up.
CNS_Savar says:
Self: There's so much power there... and it's not all from him... some outside source... besides the core?
Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The consoles do not respond to the EO's attempts.
OPS_Danforth says:
::the beautiful and skilled Ensign Jenna Jergens is working beside me, helping me with her computer expertise::
SO_Washudoin says:
*CSO*: Washudoin here.
XO_Claymore says:
CMO: Do you have the virus ready?
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
JJ: Almost, sir
CSO_Vekh says:
*SO*: After you search the Magicians quarters, you are to go assist the OPS into getting control over the computer
OPS_Danforth says:
Jergens: What if we attempt to access control of the station through the comm systems.  It apparently doesn't have complete control over that!
SO_Washudoin says:
*CSO* Understood sir I'll be quick.
Host CO_Morgan says:
*XO*:  Status of the Hornet?
EO_McDuggle says:
::moves to weapons control section of core and starts pulling chips that control weapons::
XO_Claymore says:
CMO: Hurry this being is probably going to want to come over soon
OPS_Danforth says:
<Jergens>: OPS: Good idea! ::attempts to access the controls for the comm system::
SO_Washudoin says:
:: Arrives at the Ferengi front door::
CSO_Vekh says:
*SO*: And about the search, look for any kind of book of spells of sorts. We can find the Magicians notes about the creature on them
CNS_Savar says:
EO: McDuggle, this... form in the core is getting power from somewhere... it's not all his power.  Can you find out what is fueling it?  Any physical sources we can disconnect?
Host The_Voice says:
XO: I see what you're doing, Mr. Claymore.  It will not work.  I need this station to exact my revenge.
SO_Washudoin says:
*CSO* Acknowledged.
XO_Claymore says:
*CO*: 100% sir, we've got a plan and we'd like to have the alien come over here and continue the trip
CTO_Matt says:
::exits Ops, carrying the body of the magician and heading back towards the TL::
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
::Continues to work on the virus:: JJ: So far I have it programmed to raise the levels of the ohms in all systems but one, The system that operates the doors I believe....it should trap it there...
SO_Washudoin says:
::Walks in side of Ferengi Vessel, Heads toward Magicians room::
CSO_Vekh says:
::reaches for Computer core::
Host CO_Morgan says:
*XO*: Thinking that he is not inclined to join you. How is the contingency plan coming? We may need a quick 'count'.
EO_McDuggle says:
CNS: only thing I can find right now is the normal power source for the core and it won't let me shut that down
XO_Claymore says:
Voice: what do you know I'm trying to do, I'm just here to help you know the adage "Here to serve"
OPS_Danforth says:
CO: Sir, I think we may be able to access the voice auto destruction through comm system controls.
CSO_Vekh says:
::enters the Core and sees the EO and CNS, nods::
CNS_Savar says:
*CO*: Sir, if you do not mind, I'd like to come and try to talk to the voice?
XO_Claymore says:
*CO*: It's ready at any instant for the Hornet in any case
SO_Washudoin says:
::Enters room, starts searching stack of books on the desk::
EO_McDuggle says:
::Nods to the CSO::
Host CO_Morgan says:
::continues to access any portions of the computer system he can:: OPS: Do so discretely and keep me informed.
OPS_Danforth says:
CO: Yes, sir.
Host CO_Morgan says:
*CNS*:  You may try counselor.
CNS_Savar says:
::Nods to CSO, and walks towards an access ladder::
CTO_Matt says:
::exits the TL and heads for the main computer core, where Savar was last reported::
Host CO_Morgan says:
::begins working on the computer system, attempting to gain access thru the comm system::
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
XO: The virus is done.....
OPS_Danforth says:
CO: Sir, we might have something.  If you could come here and try it.
CNS_Savar says:
::Begins to climb towards Operations. With Vulcan strength, Savar quickly makes it up the ladder::
XO_Claymore says:
::walks up to Arman:: CMO: good, now we'll have to try a few things, release it onto the station's computer system but leave the Hornet unaffected
Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The instruments aboard Hornet measure velocity at warp 1.5 now. The SIF of the station is straining.
EO_McDuggle says:
::Moves over to propulsion section and starts to pull chips controlling propulsion::
Host CO_Morgan says:
::looks up as his current attempt fails:: OPS: All right, maybe you are having better luck than me...::walks over to the OPS station::
XO_Claymore says:
::types in a few commands opening more communications ports with the station's computer::
Host CO_Morgan says:
*EO*:  McDuggle, if need be, is there any way to shut down the SIF?
CNS_Savar says:
::Walks out onto Operations and nods a greeting to the Captain::
XO_Claymore says:
*CO*: sir we've increased speed to Warp 1.5
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
XO: Your the engineer....how different are the Hornet's systems from the stations?  Could I just alter it to effect the Station's computer systems and not the Hornet's?
SO_Washudoin says:
:: Continues reading Books on  a shelf in the corner::
OPS_Danforth says:
CO: Here you go...I think we should try to access control of the station through the comm system channels. I have it structured so that you can access self-destruct control.
Host CO_Morgan says:
*XO*:  Strangely, I am glad to hear that.
Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The internal security system in the core room activates and begins firing phasers.
CNS_Savar says:
Voice: Greetings. Do you mind if I talk to you?
Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The CSO is hit, but everyone else finds cover. The CSO needs medical attention.
XO_Claymore says:
CMO: They aren't that different, right now we need it to be able to affect the Hornet just in case... release when ready
Host CO_Morgan says:
OPS:  Good job...let's hope it doesn't notice what we are doing.
OPS_Danforth says:
CO: Yes, sir.
OPS_Danforth says:
::smiles::
EO_McDuggle says:
*CO* Yes Sir have engineering shut down the SIF generators manually
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
::Releases the virus into the computer core and brings up a screen to show its progress::
Host CO_Morgan says:
*EO*: I want you to standby to do so. It will be a weapon of last resort, so to speak.
EO_McDuggle says:
::Moves down to CSO and give him a hypo::
Host CO_Morgan says:
::begins to access the self destruction sequence through Danforth's interface::
XO_Claymore says:
::awaits reports from the station::
CNS_Savar says:
Voice: Why are we going to Vulcan?
EO_McDuggle says:
*CO*: Yes Sir:: grabs phaser rifle and starts towards SIF generators::
SO_Washudoin says:
::Continues to try and read Magicians books quickly::
CNS_Savar says:
::Looks over at the Captain with a look like, why does he not talk to me?::
Host CO_Morgan says:
::looks at the Counselor:: CNS: I think it may have a grudge against Vulcans.
CNS_Savar says:
CO: How would it know?
Host The_Voice says:
CNS: We are going there to exact my revenge upon those that imprisoned me.
CNS_Savar says:
Voice: Who imprisoned you?
Host CO_Morgan says:
::continues to try and access the destruction sequence:: CNS: Feel better? Keep it occupied.
SO_Washudoin says:
:: Puts books down and goes through the chest in the room::
CNS_Savar says:
Voice: A Vulcan?
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
XO: Is there any way we could keep it distracted? Make it think something through or something?
Host The_Voice says:
CNS: Indeed. The High Priestess, T'Las.
CNS_Savar says:
Voice: Did you ever inhabit a physical body?
Host CO_Morgan says:
*XO*:  Claymore, we have a back up plan in case I can't access the SD sequence. If we have to use it, be ready to get the Hornet and as many people as you can off the station.
XO_Claymore says:
CMO: I think the Counselor is working on that already
CTO_Matt says:
::sets the magician's body down outside the computer core as he hears phaser fire happening and grabs his phaser::
XO_Claymore says:
*CO*: The Hornet has being evacuated Captain... there is no one here but myself and the CMO
Host CO_Morgan says:
OPS: Run a computer check on Vulcan High Priestesses, named T'las.
EO_McDuggle says:
::arrives at SIF generators::
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
XO: Very well....::Looks down at the display seeing how far the virus has gotten::
OPS_Danforth says:
CO: Yes, sir. ::attempts to access the computer database for a Vulcan High Priestess named T'las::
Host CO_Morgan says:
*XO*: Roger that. Wishful thinking on my part.
Host CO_Morgan says:
*CSO*: Vekh, how's that crystal coming...Vekh?...::mutters under his breath::
Host The_Voice says:
CO: ::Gags::  What are you doing to me?  Purge this virus or I will destroy this station!
Host CO_Morgan says:
Voice: Destroy the station and you loose your body and chance at revenge. We're ready to die...are you?
Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: as if on cue, the station's life support shuts down.
OPS_Danforth says:
CO: Sir, life support just got shut down.
OPS_Danforth says:
::working on restoring it...attempting to access it through comm channels::
Host AGMDave says:
Morgan: I can find another form to occupy.
Host CO_Morgan says:
Voice: If life support doesn't become reactivated, I will destroy this station myself...I wonder how well disembodied spirits do in deep space...
CNS_Savar says:
::Sits back while this crisis is dealt with::
Host CO_Morgan says:
OPS: See if you can't bypass the entities controls on life support.
OPS_Danforth says:
CO: Already working on it, sir.
CTO_Matt says:
::opens the door to the computer core room and sees Vekh's body lying on the floor, bleeding a little. He rushes over to him and starts to drag him out of the room.::
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
XO: The being just shut down the life support on the station
SO_Washudoin says:
:: Takes PADD that he found and heads towards OPS::
Host The_Voice says:
Morgan: Go ahead.  ::gags some more::
XO_Claymore says:
CMO: Are you sure, could your virus have done it?
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
XO: I suspect its more in retaliation....
Host CO_Morgan says:
*XO*:  Claymore, if something should happen, to me here, you know what to do...
Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: Hornet's sensors detect several Starfleet vessels converging on the station.
EO_McDuggle says:
*CO* Sir I am at the SIF Generators now. Do you want me to shut them down now?
Host CO_Morgan says:
Voice: What will it be? Shall I up the ante? ::inputs the destruction code into the computer with a 15-minute countdown::  Choice is yours...

CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
::Gets a mental image of Becky, Keyla, Hayley and David choking and gasping for air:: Self: NO!!!!
Host CO_Morgan says:
*EO*: If you do not hear something from me in 14.5 minutes, shut them down.
SO_Washudoin says:
:: Arrives on TL:: Computer: OPS
CSO_Vekh says:
<Ens.Jones> CO: Captain, several Starfleet vessels are converging
EO_McDuggle says:
*CO*: Aye Aye Sir
Host The_Voice says:
Morgan: I will now show you the error of your ways.
CSO_Vekh says:
<Ens.Jones> CO: They are on intercept course with us
Host CO_Morgan says:
Jones: Hail them and inform them of our situation. Tell them to open fire when in range.
CNS_Savar says:
::Braces for anything::
XO_Claymore says:
::hears a sensor alert and goes to look at the science station:: CMO: We've got some Starfleet ships coming in our direction
CSO_Vekh says:
::bleeding on the deck outside the Computer core, consciousness waving in and out::
Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The destruction command is overridden and the console that Morgan was working on goes blank.
CSO_Vekh says:
::slowly regains conscience::
CSO_Vekh says:
<Ens.Jones> CO: Aye sir. ::taps console and opens an emergency channel::
Host The_Voice says:
Morgan: I have tot ... ::gags:: ...control over your station. Remove the virus!
CTO_Matt says:
CSO: Be careful, Vekh. That is a nasty phaser wound you have there.
Host CO_Morgan says:
::in a calm voice:: Voice: No.
SO_Washudoin says:
::Arrives at OPS, exits TL:: CO: Sir I found this :: hands PADD to CO::
OPS_Danforth says:
CO: Sir, I'm going to get the portable oxygen masks.
XO_Claymore says:
CMO: How much time till we completely have the virus in effect?
CSO_Vekh says:
<Ens.Jones> COM: FLEET: This is Arcadia Station. An alien intelligence overtook our computers. We have no control of the station or its weapons systems.
Host CO_Morgan says:
::takes the PADD from the SO and reads over it::
CSO_Vekh says:
<Ens.Jones> COM: FLEET: The entity is heading to Vulcan and intends to attack the planet
CSO_Vekh says:
<Ens.Jones> COM: FLEET: You are instructed by orders of Captain Morgan to open fire whenever you are in range. Repeat: you are to open fire on the Station
CSO_Vekh says:
::hears the CTO:: CTO: Loran...what happened, everything went dark ::notices pain in his side and backs::
CNS_Savar says:
::Sits, thinking I could have got some information from it::
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
XO: The virus is in full effect, but its not doing its job as good as I wanted it to. The entity is battling it....
CSO_Vekh says:
::notices a phaser wound and ASAP rips off a sleeve to makeshift a patch::
XO_Claymore says:
CMO: revise the code and send it again
CTO_Matt says:
CSO: I have no idea. I found you that way in the computer core. The entity might have activated the phaser defensives and shot you.
Host CO_Morgan says:
SO: Get on the COM, and see if you can track down this Gork and find out more about where he got the ball from and from whom.
OPS_Danforth says:
::grabs portable oxygen masks from the emergency supply cabinet::
XO_Claymore says:
*CO*: The virus is in full effect, if the entity doesn't give up we'll be able to out survive it
Host Captain_Marmon says:
COM: Hornet: This is captain Marmon of the USS Forrestal. I need Captain Morgan's confirmation codes before I can open fire.
SO_Washudoin says:
CO: Yes sir
CTO_Matt says:
CSO: The life support has been taken out as well. I would guess by the entity.
OPS_Danforth says:
::handing the CO and the bridge crew portable oxygen masks just in case::
Host CO_Morgan says:
COM: Forrestal: This is Captain Morgan.  Confirmation, one-beta-phi-seven-one.
SO_Washudoin says:
::get on the comm and begins searching::
CNS_Savar says:
::Takes mask::
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
XO: Alright ::Starts to work on the virus and tweaks with it a bit more::
CTO_Matt says:
::moves to a nearby locker grabs a couple of oxygen masks, handing one to Vekh::
Host CO_Morgan says:
SO: Do you have the crystal? Give it to Savar and see if he can do anything with it.
Host Captain_Marmon says:
COM: Morgan: Confirmed. Your code is good. What is the station's prefix code?
CSO_Vekh says:
CTO: Too bad. Things are definitively out of control...and I don't like it a bit ::finds supports in the bulkhead and then tries to steady himself::
Host CO_Morgan says:
COM: Forrestal: Prefix code 078843.
CNS_Savar says:
::Raises an eye at Morgan::
CSO_Vekh says:
::grabs the mask from the CTO and puts it on:: CTO: Loran, where is the crystal I was carrying when I was fired upon?
MO_Calahan says:
::turns to nurses:: Nurses: Grab those masks and spread them out around the station. Take some for yourselves as well.
Host Captain_Marmon says:
COMM: Morgan: Confirmed.  Hang on to something!
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
::Rewrites the virus to purge life support of the voice first, then to weapons, then to Self destruction, then out of the minor systems::
SO_Washudoin says:
CO: No sir I don't have the crystal.
Host CO_Morgan says:
COMM: Forrestal: Roger. Target the computer core first, maybe we'll get lucky.
MO_Calahan says:
::puts on her mask, then heads starts to head out as well::
CSO_Vekh says:
<Ens.Jones> ::is bewildered at the COMM and the realization that they will be blown to bits::
Host CO_Morgan says:
SO: Well find out who does have it, and hang on.
CNS_Savar says:
*MO*: Doctor, can you come up to Operations, please?
MO_Calahan says:
*CNS*: Aye sir. Be there soon.
EO_McDuggle says:
*CO* Sir I would suggest that you and the rest of the senior staff move to the Hornet
Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The Forrestal uses the prefix code and the station's shields drop. The small fleet of 8 ships fire on the station. Arcadia is rocked hard. Sparks fly everywhere.
SO_Washudoin says:
CO: Yes sir. *CTO* do you know of the whereabouts of the crystal?
MO_Calahan says:
::turns to a nurse:: Nurse: You are in charge until I return. Call me if you need any help or anything.
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
XO: I've almost finished...I've programmed it to get it out of life support first
Host CO_Morgan says:
*EO*: Thanks for the thought, but I am staying here...::rocked by the impact of the weapons fire::
CNS_Savar says:
::Grabs onto a chair, and narrowly avoids serious injury::
CTO_Matt says:
*SO* Yes, we have an idea of where it is.
MO_Calahan says:
::falls over a console::
CSO_Vekh says:
::is rocked as a doll:: SELF: Hughh.
XO_Claymore says:
CMO: let's hope that it will get it out of everything else too... launch when ready
MO_Calahan says:
::sits up:: Self: (cursing in Irish)
CSO_Vekh says:
<Ens.Jones> ::falls to the deck, hitting hard his head::
EO_McDuggle says:
::ducks a shower of sparks::
CTO_Matt says:
CSO: Vekh, I'm going to try and find it. You cover me while I enter the core.
Host CO_Morgan says:
*XO*:  Claymore, evacuate as many civilians as you can to the Hornet, and get out of here.
SO_Washudoin says:
::walks out of OPS into TL::*CTO* I need to go retrieve it.
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
::Finishes the new virus and releases it:: XO: Virus released
XO_Claymore says:
::rocks with because of the fire:: CMO: or sooner
MO_Calahan says:
::walks out of sickbay and up to OPS quickly, putting gauze on her head::
CSO_Vekh says:
<Ens.Lackey> ::falls over the MSD on Main Engineering::
MO_Calahan says:
TL: OPS.
XO_Claymore says:
Computer: Emergency Station evacuation procedure 5-1-4, transport as many people to the Hornet
Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The Station fires back at the fleet, but does not penetrate any shields.
CSO_Vekh says:
CTO: Proceed ::readies his phaser, and looks around for any internal phaser system::
Host CO_Morgan says:
Stationwide COM: All hands to escape pods. This is the Captain. All hands to escape pods.
MO_Calahan says:
::arrives in OPS, looks around::
Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The Hornet begins beaming people off the station.
CTO_Matt says:
::enters the computer core, looking around the area that Vekh had fallen for the crystal:
CSO_Vekh says:
::hears the COM from Morgan::
CNS_Savar says:
::Motions to Calahan::
XO_Claymore says:
::tries to disconnect from the docking clamps::
MO_Calahan says:
::Walks over to the counselor::
MO_Calahan says:
CNS: Yes?
Host CO_Morgan says:
*EO*:  Still ready to down there, McDuggle?
CSO_Vekh says:
*SO*: Washudoin, this is Vekh. Any progress with the Magicians stuff?
Host The_Voice says:
All: Fools! I will destroy you all!!
CNS_Savar says:
MO: Keely... are you familiar with the crystal ball that was in the possession of the Ferengi?
CSO_Vekh says:
::a memory comes to his mind, from a recent mission::
CTO_Matt says:
::finds the crystal ball, covering and shielding it with his body and arms, he runs out of the computer core::
Host CO_Morgan says:
Voice: You might, but we will be taking you with us.
EO_McDuggle says:
*CO* Yes Sir but I still suggest you get off the station
CSO_Vekh says:
*CO*: Captain, please come in. It's Vekh
MO_Calahan says:
::looks slightly puzeled:: CNS: Afraid not sir.
Host CO_Morgan says:
*CSO*: Go ahead.
SO_Washudoin says:
*CSO*: I've found a receipt for the ball and started a search for Gork the man who sold it to the Magician.
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
XO: The virus has made contact
Host CO_Morgan says:
*EO*: No go, I am staying with the station.
CSO_Vekh says:
*CO*: Captain, are we under attack from a fleet of starships?
CNS_Savar says:
MO: Well... please stop calling me 'sir' for the moment. What I am going to ask of you in a minute will be purely voluntary.
CSO_Vekh says:
*SO*: Good work ensign. Keep on it, we need to pursue all chances we have
SO_Washudoin says:
*CSO* I'm heading down to Deck 10 to see if the ball is there.
XO_Claymore says:
COM: FLEET: Come in for beam outs... we've got a lot of people on this station!
MO_Calahan says:
CNS: Okay, if you wish. Savar....please continue.
CNS_Savar says:
MO: This entity apparently came encased within a glass crystal sphere.
Host CO_Morgan says:
*CSO*: Yes we are, and a darn good one too, I might add. A couple more shots like that last one and this will all be over.
Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The station rocks again under fire. Main power goes offline and the station begins to slow.
CTO_Matt says:
*SO*: I have what you wanted.
XO_Claymore says:
*CO*: Sir, the Hornet is stuck to the station... we can't get the docking clamps released
EO_McDuggle says:
*CO* Sir I'm the only one that needs to be on the station to shut down the SIF generators
CSO_Vekh says:
*CO*: I just realized this nearly matches the 'future telling' that Fizer showed us.
MO_Calahan says:
::braces herself against a railing::

Host CO_Morgan says:
*XO*: Blow them if you have too...wait a second, what do you make our speed?
SO_Washudoin says:
*CTO* Excellent I'm supposed to get it to Savar.
CSO_Vekh says:
*CO*: in which a fleet was attaching the station and an alien device was threatening us from inside
CNS_Savar says:
MO: They are going to bring it up here, and have me try to... do something with it.  Something telepathic... I thought that it would help to have another telepath.
Host CO_Morgan says:
*CSO*: Are you saying jettison the crystal and have the fleet blow it up? Do it!
XO_Claymore says:
::looks at Arman:: CMO: what's the speed?
CSO_Vekh says:
*CO*: I do think this could be the situation Fizer refereed to.
CTO_Matt says:
*SO*:  Where is Savar?
Host CO_Morgan says:
*CSO*: Worth the shot.
MO_Calahan says:
CNS: I understand. I'd be glad to assist.
CSO_Vekh says:
*CO*: Those were my thoughts exactly sir.
MO_Calahan says:
CNS: But....
Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The entity is now locked in combat with the virus and no longer attacking the Starfleet vessels.
CNS_Savar says:
::Overhears The Captain:: But...
CSO_Vekh says:
CTO: Loran, do you have the crystal?
MO_Calahan says:
CNS: I have to warn you. My mind is in a very, well, aggressive state.
OPS_Danforth says:
CO: Does that mean environmental suits, sir?
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
XO: We're slowing down....and the entity is concentrating on fighting the virus
CNS_Savar says:
::Decides to speak up:: CO: Captain, do we know for a fact that the crystal can be destroyed?
CTO_Matt says:
CSO: Yes, I have it.
Host CO_Morgan says:
OPS: Just get the crystal off the station.
MO_Calahan says:
::lowers voice:: CNS: I haven't worked out alot of new, repressed anger that has come up in the past few weeks.
CNS_Savar says:
CO: And do you know if it will stop the entity?
XO_Claymore says:
*CO*: We've slowed, and the alien is focusing only on the virus.... Destroy the data block it's in!
CNS_Savar says:
::lowers voice for Keely:: MO: You know that's my job.
CSO_Vekh says:
CTO: Come. We have to jettison this thing out of the station ::motions toward a cargo bay on the deck below::
SO_Washudoin says:
::Continues With tracking down Gork, returns to OPS::
Host CO_Morgan says:
CNS: No, but if it can't we always pick it up if there is still a station to pick it up from.
CNS_Savar says:
MO: I can help you.
CNS_Savar says:
CO: I hope so, because I have another idea.
Host CO_Morgan says:
::hears the XO:: OPS: Kill that data block, cut power to it.
Host CO_Morgan says:
CNS: Make it quick.
Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: One of the vessels, an Excelsior, gets too close to the station and is caught in a tractor beam. The entity begins to leave the computer core.
MO_Calahan says:
CNS: No. That isn't what I meant. Thank-you, but no. I was warning you so you would be prepared.
OPS_Danforth says:
::trying to block power to the data block::
OPS_Danforth says:
CO: Yes, sir!
CTO_Matt says:
::follows Vekh to the nearest cargo bay::
MO_Calahan says:
CNS: In case I get.....violent.
Host CO_Morgan says:
Ops: Kill that tractor beam!
Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: Emergency power comes online. Life support is restored and the consoles are working.
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
XO: I'm transmitting the virus to the ship in the tractor beam and then to the rest of the ships
CNS_Savar says:
*CSO*: Vekh, this is Savar. Countermand the Captain's last order, and bring the crystal ball up here, asap.
CSO_Vekh says:
::reaches for an airlock and indicates it to Loran:: CTO: here sir. Put the crystal inside the chamber
OPS_Danforth says:
::killing the tractor beam::
Host CO_Morgan says:
*EO*: McDuggle can you shut down the tractor beam?
XO_Claymore says:
::tries to access phaser control on the station and fire at the station's own tractor beam::
MO_Calahan says:
CNS: So to speak.
OPS_Danforth says:
CO: Done, sir!
CTO_Matt says:
::puts the crystal ball into the airlock and steps out of it::

Host CO_Morgan says:
CTO: Time to range?
CSO_Vekh says:
SO: did you find any mean to recall the entity into the crystal?
CTO_Matt says:
CO: Sir, 3 minutes.
Host CO_Morgan says:
CTO: Target the power systems, full yield.
CSO_Vekh says:
::monitors the fleet with short range sensors
SO_Washudoin says:
CSO: Not yet, there was nothing in the Magicians room
OPS_Danforth says:
CO: Routing all unnecessary power to the shields and phasers
CNS_Savar says:
::Releases ball suddenly::
CSO_Vekh says:
CO: Shall we contact the fleet to coordinate the attack?

XO: It is my intention to get in close and pound the ship till the entity tries to abandon ship again, and make it jump to us.
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
::Drops the ship out of warp so that he doesn't over pass the Braddock::
Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The Crystal Ball drops to the deck, but is undamaged.
Host CO_Morgan says:
CSO: Yes do so.
Host CO_Morgan says:
CNS: Do you think that crystal will be able to trap the entity again?
CSO_Vekh says:
COM: FLEET: This is the Hornet, we are assuming command of the fleet.
CSO_Vekh says:
COM: FLEET: Coordinate your attack patters with our CTO
OPS_Danforth says:
CNS: How did the entity get out of the crystal in the first place?
OPS_Danforth says:
CNS: How can we stop it from getting out again?
Host CO_Morgan says:
CSO: Have them target power systems, but stay outside tractor range.
CNS_Savar says:
::Adds Keely's power to his own:: ~~Voice: Come into the ball, and you will have your revenge. I am from Vulcan, and descendant of the High Priestess T'Las, who imprisoned you~~

XO_Claymore says:
CO: And get it to go into the crystal...if someone were to hook it into the shield generators when the alien tries to lock on with a tractor beam it might be pulled in
CSO_Vekh says:
COM: FLEET: Your are ordered to target power systems. Remain outside tractor range tho.
SO_Washudoin says:
:: Monitors Braddock on sensors::
CSO_Vekh says:
COM: FLEET: This is how the entity spreads from one ship to the other.
MO_Calahan says:
::closes eyes even harder, allowing the CNS full control of her mind::

CNS_Savar says:
~~Voice: You are weak. Face me in the crystal!~~
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
CO: I'd like to transfer the virus onto the Braddock's computer when the shields drop...
OPS_Danforth says:
CO: Sir, do we need to lower the shields to allow the entity back in?
CSO_Vekh says:
::consulting sensors:: XO: The Braddock was hit, sir. It returned fire and damaged the Forrestal
SO_Washudoin says:
CSO: Right away.
Host CO_Morgan says:

::rerouting power through different conduits:: CO: Sir, 5% more power available to the shields! ::holding on still::
CNS_Savar says:
~~::Continues to lure::~~
CSO_Vekh says:
COM: Fleet: At the slightest sign that it has overpowered us, fire without delay!
XO_Claymore says:
::looks towards the CNS and MO:: Self: they can do it... I hope
Host CO_Morgan says:
::smiles as OPS::
Host The_Voice says:
CNS/MO: ~~You cannot taunt me. I am forever!~~

~~Voice: You are never!~~
Host CO_Morgan says:
CSO: Acknowledged...::watches the CNS and MO, hoping this works::
XO_Claymore says:
::sounds alert in all sections, everyone is to board the lifepods and stand ready for evac::
CNS_Savar says:
~~Voice: You are no better than those who imprisoned you. You now imprison us!~~

Host The_Voice says:
CNS/MO: ~~You will die a slow and painful death at my hands.~~
SO_Washudoin says:
:: stands close to CNS/MO, but not too close::
OPS_Danforth says:
::rerouting more power by cutting life support for brief moments to all areas and then restoring it:: CO: 10% more power to the shields, sir! ::still holding on::
Host CO_Morgan says:
::looks up and XO and nods agreement, taps in the self-destruct to standby just in case::
CSO_Vekh says:
::whispers to the CO:: CO: Sir, I suggest have someone ready with a phaser to blow this crystal away at first opportunity
XO_Claymore says:
::readies conformation to Self-Destruct::
OPS_Danforth says:
CO: I've got a phaser rifle sir.
Host CO_Morgan says:
CSO: Lock onto it with the transporter and set coordinates to space, send the coordinates to the CTO and the fleet.
EO_McDuggle says:
::Send ME personal to escape pods and monitors systems::
CSO_Vekh says:
CO: Aye, sir ::goes over to transporter control panel::
Host CO_Morgan says:
XO: It's the waiting I hate...
CSO_Vekh says:
::locks on the crystal's position and rig in a beam sequence to send it to space::
MO_Calahan says:
~~~~Voice: You sound very confident in your accusations...~~~
CSO_Vekh says:
CTO: I've locked the transporter on the crystal. I'm sending you the coordinates where I'll beam it into space.
Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The crystal ball suddenly comes to life with brilliant blue/white energy. It seems that it is trying to escape.
Host CO_Morgan says:
CSO:  Engage transporter!
CSO_Vekh says:
COM: Fleet: I'm sending coordinates of the beam site of the crystal. Lock on these coordinates
CTO_Matt says:
::nods to the CSO and locks those coordinates in::

MO_Calahan says:
~~~~:: begins to lose touch with everything ::~~~
SO_Washudoin says:
::watches viewscreen::
CSO_Vekh says:
<Fleet> ::fires::
Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The fleet's fire as well as Hornet's converge on the ball and it is destroyed in a flash rivaling that of a core breach. The CNS and MO no longer feel the entity.
CSO_Vekh says:
::reaches for the MO:: MO: Hold on, Calahan
CNS_Savar says:
::Looses contact with Voice... and gently separates and breaks contact with Keely::
