<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<RESUME MISSION>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.

CNS_Savar says:
::In Station OPS, manning the Tactical station::

Host CO_Reed says:
@::sitting in the big chair::

CTO_Matt says:
::scans the alien ship, trying to get more readings and information about it.  Also updates the station on their progress::

CSO_Tyler says:
::at the scienec station going over simulating different ideas for the Thomas::

FCO_Rhen says:
@::at the helm on the Thomas, trying to figure out why the ship isn't going anywhere::

CEO_JJ says:
@ ::In Engineering working on sheilds, the SIF, and the tractor beam:: EO: That panel over there, switch the first two isolinear chips that are on the top level

CSO_Jones says:
@::at the Science station, doing pretty much nothing::

CMO_Rex says:
@:sitting at the Captain's left::

CSO_Tyler says:
CNS: Status on the Thomas and the Unidentified Vessel

CNS_Savar says:
CSO: The Thomas has locked a tractor beam on the vessel.  Neither is moving.

CEO_JJ says:
@::watches the ensign do his assignment quickly:: ::starts to type in commands by passing safeties on this system and that system::

FCO_Rhen says:
@CO: Well, this is interesting, we appear to be going nowhere at a rather brisk pace.

CSO_Tyler says:
self::  Hmmm

Host CO_Reed says:
@FCO:  What are the chances that we are going to get out of here with that vessel?

CTO_Matt says:
@CO:  Sir, the tractor beam has us dead in the water.

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The strain is beginning to show on the tractor systems.

CMO_Rex says:
@::softly humming Gilbert & Sullivan::

CSO_Tyler says:
CNS: Anything new on the other vessel??  have they got main power online?

CEO_JJ says:
@*CO*: The tractor system can't take much more of this, we have to do something with that ship, sir

FCO_Rhen says:
@CO: Not sure, much better if we cut the anchorline.

CTO_Matt says:
@CO:  Sir, with us this close to the ship, are we able to beam someone over?

CSO_Jones says:
@::starts to fall asleep at his station... regains his composure before anyone notices::

Host CO_Reed says:
@CTO:  Prepare to cut the tractor beam.

CEO_JJ says:
@::hears the command over the comm and readies the SIF for some more action::

Host CO_Reed says:
@CSO:  Wake up, ensign.  Are we close enough to the other vessel to beam over a small away team?

FCO_Rhen says:
@CO: Returning thrusters to stationkeeping, Sir.  ::enacts that thought on his console::

CNS_Savar says:
CSO: No data has been reported on that.

CSO_Jones says:
@Reed : I wasn't sleeping Sir, I was concentrating.... And we should be close enough.. if you want the Away Team to materialize inside a bulkhead.

CMO_Rex says:
@::crosses his arms and watches intently::

CEO_JJ says:
@*FCO*: Any idea of how many people are on that ship?

FCO_Rhen says:
@*CEO* hold on just a second, Chief.

Host CO_Reed says:
@CSO:  Why would an AT be beamed into a bulkhead?

FCO_Rhen says:
@CSO: Do we have any idea how many people are over there?

CEO_JJ says:
@::continues one command after another, finishes then walks over to a bulk head with a tool kit in hand::

CTO_Matt says:
@FCO:  There is one life sign we have been able to determine, and it is just barely there.

CEO_JJ says:
@::removes the bulkhead with the help of another EO::

CMO_Rex says:
@::sits forward on his seat and gives the Captain a sharp glance::

FCO_Rhen says:
@::nods to the CTO and spins back to his console::  *CEO* One faint lifesign.

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The alien vessel begins to break apart under the strain of the pulling.

Host CO_Reed says:
@FCO:  Could you pilot a shuttle and manually dock with that alien vessel?

CEO_JJ says:
@*FCO*: Thank you

CSO_Jones says:
@Reed : Well Sir, graviton interference would cause havoc with the transporter's targeting scanners... although.. if I could beam over with some pattern enhancers..

CMO_Rex says:
@CO: Sir, we have to get that survivor out of there.

CTO_Matt says:
@CO:  Sir, the alien ship is breaking apart from the tractor beams.

FCO_Rhen says:
@CO: a shuttle trip would take time sir.

CEO_JJ says:
@::looks at the panel and a large amount of chips and some gel packs::

CSO_Tyler says:
CNS: are the vessels shields up??

Host CO_Reed says:
@FCO:  How much time?  We don't have much to spare.

CNS_Savar says:
CSO: The vessel does not have shields... it is begining to tear apart.

CEO_JJ says:
@self: hummm, let's see here ::takes a tool and disconnects one wire to a gel pack and inserts in into another::

CTO_Matt says:
@CO:  Sir, if we want the ship intact, we need to cut the tractor beam now.

FCO_Rhen says:
@CO: Too much time.  The transporter idea sounds like the more feasible plan.

CMO_Rex says:
@::sits on the edge of his seat::

CSO_Tyler says:
::opens a channel to the Thomas:;  COMM: Arcadia to Thomas

Host CO_Reed says:
@FCO:  Very well.  Take three pattern enhancers and beam over to the alien ship ASAP.

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: Arcadia hails the Thomas

CMO_Rex says:
@CO: Sir, if anyone's going it should be me... the patient may need to be stabilized for transport.

CEO_JJ says:
@*CSO*: do you know if it is possible to transport pattern inhancers that are active?

Host CO_Reed says:
@CMO:  Once the pattern enhancers are in place, we will have the alien beamed directly to sickbay.

FCO_Rhen says:
@CO: Very well sir, permission to request that Mr. Jones accompany me?   It will expedite the transport enhancer setup.

Host CO_Reed says:
COM: Arcadia:  What is it?  ::a bit annoyed at the interruption::

CSO_Tyler says:
COMM: Thomas CEO: I'm not sure.. I've never tried it.  Should be possible though.

CMO_Rex says:
@CO: Aye, sir! ::leaps from his seat and bounds to the turbolift::

Host CO_Reed says:
@FCO:  Good idea.

TO_Blythe says:
@::first day on the bridge, her face lightening at the words away team::

Host CO_Reed says:
@CSO:  Jones, assist Mr. Rhen.

CSO_Jones says:
@*CEO* : I've heard of some instances where it has been successful.. but also some where it has not.. It would be much safer to wait and initialize them on-site.

FCO_Rhen says:
@::gestures for the CSO to join him and enters a turbolift::  TL: Transporter room 1

TO_Blythe says:
@::wonders what kind of look does she need to make the Lts and captain to make her go::

CEO_JJ says:
@*CSO_Jones*: Is it possible to remotely activate them?

CSO_Jones says:
@Reed : Aye Sir.

CSO_Jones says:
@*CEO* : For what reason? We'll initialize them after we've transported over.

Host CO_Reed says:
@CTO:  Cut that tractor beam as soon as our AT is returned.

CTO_Matt says:
@CO:  Yes sir.

CMO_Rex says:
@::arrives in Sickbay::

CEO_JJ says:
@*CSO*: I am thinking of a way to keep people out of harm's way

TO_Blythe says:
@::doesn't dare to speak up and say that a security officer might be needed in the team... *too* new yet::

CNS_Savar says:
CSO: The Thomas is attempting an away mission.

Host CO_Reed says:
@::wonders what the status of the away team is::

CSO_Tyler says:
CNS: Looking at his sensors... they better hurry up.. looks like they won't have much time

CSO_Jones says:
@::follows the FCO::

FCO_Rhen says:
@::steps out of the TL and strides briskly into the transporter room, going to a storage closet and retrieving three transport enhancers::

CNS_Savar says:
CSO: I know.  They have... ::calls up figures on console::

CTO_Matt says:
@CO:  Sir, we might want to disconnect the tractor beam.   It might stop the alien ship from breaking apart and the away team might be able to get the ship out of the well.

CEO_JJ says:
@::does one last check to make sure the targeting sensors on the transporters will be able to take in account the gravitational force::

TO_Blythe says:
@::goes back to her duties, and tries to hide her disappointment by concentrating in her nails... should have manicured them::

FCO_Rhen says:
@CSO: Mind giving me a hand?

Host CO_Reed says:
@CTO:  If we cut the tractor beam, it will be increasingly difficult to stay within transporter range.  I am not worried about that ship over there, just the lifesign on it.  Once they are returned, we'll cut the beam and get out of here.

CEO_JJ says:
@*CO*: Sir, I have done as much as I can to the transporters let's just hope luck is with the AT

CSO_Jones says:
@FCO : Not at all. ::claps her hands together jokingly::

CTO_Matt says:
::scans the alien ship, seeing if the ship will stay intact long enough for this to happen::

Host CO_Reed says:
@*CEO*:  I trust you did a fine job.

FCO_Rhen says:
@::tosses a transport enhancers at the CSO and hopes her reflexes are as sharp as her wit::

CEO_JJ says:
@::Returns his attention to the tractor beam::

CMO_Rex says:
@::prepares for a trauma case::

CSO_Jones says:
@::catches two of the enhancers, but drops one and hopes it isn't damaged::
Rhen : Nice shot. ::smirks::

Host CO_Reed says:
@*AT*:  It would be nice if you would hurry.  The sooner you get over there the better your chances are to avoid being sucked into space due to a hull breach.

TO_Blythe says:
@CTO: Sir, if I may... ::clears her throat:: The... ::stammers in the words a bit:: away team might need a security officer....

CTO_Matt says:
@*CEO* How long will the tractor beam emitters last?

CNS_Savar says:
CSO: The ship has about eigth minutes until breakup is complete.

CEO_JJ says:
@::wishes he could send some kind of field along the beam that would surround the ship and hold it together longer::

FCO_Rhen says:
@*CO* On our way, though I can't say this is a trip I'm looking forward too.

CSO_Tyler says:
CNS: I haven't even picked up a transporter signal... I hope they know what they're doing

CEO_JJ says:
@*CTO*: I estimate 7 minutes

CTO_Matt says:
@TO:  It is not my decision to send or keep you on this away mission.  That is the job of the Captain.

CNS_Savar says:
CSO: The AT has not beamed over yet.

CTO_Matt says:
@CO:  Sir, we have 8 minutes before the ship will break up and 7 minutes before the emitters fry.

TO_Blythe says:
@::feels like put in her place:: CTO: It was just a suggestion, sir... ::looks back at her console::

Host CO_Reed says:
@*AT*:  You have 5 minutes to get over there and back.

CSO_Jones says:
@::steps up on the transporter pad and waits for the FCO.. studying his figure as he stands there..::

CNS_Savar says:
CSO: Has the fires stopped?

FCO_Rhen says:
@::steps up onto the transporter pad and sets down the enhancers::  CSO: Ready?

CSO_Tyler says:
CNS: For the time being. Ensign L omax is still looking into it.  At least until the Chief returns.

FCO_Rhen says:
@::signals to the transporter chief to energize, not waiting for the CSO to acknowledge::

CSO_Tyler says:
CNS: 5 minutes and the team still hasn't beamed over yet.

CTO_Matt says:
@CO:  Sir, the atmosphere over there looks breathable, but, it is kinda cold.

CSO_Jones says:
@FCO : I'm always ready..

Host CO_Reed says:
@CTO:  They will manage.

CEO_JJ says:
@*CTO*: use the tactical simulation program to see if changing the tractor beam's modulation will help

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: Hull ruptures appear on the outer edges of the alien ship.

TO_Blythe says:
@CTO: The alien ship's hull is showing ruptures.

CTO_Matt says:
::runs a simulation with the tractor beam to see if changing the modulation will help with the strain on the alien ship::

CNS_Savar says:
CSO: The vessel now has hull ruptures.

TO_Blythe says:
@::one sorta coherent sentence... yay we might have a future at TAC::

CTO_Matt says:
@TO:  Make sure you keep the away team informed about those hull ruptures and keep an eye on them as well.

TO_Blythe says:
@CTO: Aye, sir.

CEO_JJ says:
@::looks at the latest reports and notices the hull ruptures:: *CO*: Sir there is not much I can do down here, that ship is going to be ripped apart

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The AT beams over to the alien ship.

CNS_Savar says:
CSO: The AT has just beamed over.

Host CO_Reed says:
@*CEO*:  I am not concerned with the ship.  I am concerned with the lifesign it carries.  Once our AT has returned, we will be leaving.

CTO_Matt says:
@CO:  Sir, may I have permission to try patch into the alien ship's computer?

TO_Blythe says:
@*FCO* The alien's ship hull is breaking apart. The situation is not dangerous yet but you don't have much time.

CSO_Jones says:
#::looks around the ship::

CSO_Tyler says:
::nods to the CNS::

FCO_Rhen says:
#::pulls out a tricorder ands starts immediately scanning for humanoid lifesigns::  CSO: you set the transport enhancers up.

CEO_JJ says:
@*CO*: My worry is the AT, sir. If they don't make it out of there in 4 minutes they never will, not to mention the shape we will be in if the ship explodes while we are tractored to it

TO_Blythe says:
@::looks over at the CTO to see if she did it well, but CTO seems occupied with other stuff::

Host CO_Reed says:
@*CEO*:  I am well aware of the risks.

Host AGMDave says:
SCENERY: The ship's interior seems organic in nature and is dripping with slime.  It is dark and smells of mothballs and mint.

FCO_Rhen says:
#*TO* Thanks for the information, I'll keep this channel open.

CSO_Jones says:
#::nods and sets the enhancers up a few meters apart, initializing each one as it is situated::

CSO_Tyler says:
CNS: With the gravity well in consideration. How long will it take the Thomas to get out of harm's way if that ship explodes??

CTO_Matt says:
*::tries to see if he can locate the alien ship's computer and sees if a link is possible::

TO_Blythe says:
@*FCO* I will keep you updated, sir ::sounds like she might be useful and all!!::

CNS_Savar says:
CSO: Considering the Thomas is within transporter range, they would have little time to get away.  The Thomas may be lost if the vessel explodes.

FCO_Rhen says:
#::reads one lifesign, and points to the left, coughing slightly to get the CSO's attention::  CSO: about 100 meters in that direction.

CSO_Jones says:
#::having trouble initializing the third enhancer::
Rhen : Uhh.. Sir?

TO_Blythe says:
@::continues to monitor closely the alien ship's hull, it is deteriorating as expected... wishes she were in the AT::

FCO_Rhen says:
#*TO* It's appreciated.

FCO_Rhen says:
#CSO: Yes?

CEO_JJ says:
@::worries about other things such as a sudden rumble from the floor:: *Bridge*: was that the ship?

TO_Blythe says:
@::hears the FCO and grins, forgot everything about her nails for the moment::

CSO_Jones says:
#FCO : This pattern enhancer won't initialize... I think.. uhh.. it's the one I uhh.. dropped.

Host CO_Reed says:
@*CEO*:  Was what the ship?

CEO_JJ says:
@*CO*: I am felt a rumble ::the rumble starts again::

FCO_Rhen says:
#CSO: Wonderful....how long will it take to fix it, and don't tell me it can't be fixed.

Host CO_Reed says:
@*CEO*:  I do not feel anything.

CNS_Savar says:
CSO: The AT has less than 5 minutes left...

TO_Blythe says:
@*FCO* You have 2 minutes left, sir.

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: More hull ruptures appear on the alien ship.

CNS_Savar says:
CSO: Excuse me... 2 minutes.

CSO_Tyler says:
CNS: Is the Thomas prepared to get out of there??

CEO_JJ says:
@Engineering: What is that? ::runs over to a panel:: *CO*: Diffenantly something shaking down here sir

FCO_Rhen says:
#*TO* Thanks for the FYI

Host CO_Reed says:
@::hears the TO::  *AT*:  If you are not back here in a minute and a half, we will be forced to leave without you.  I suggest you speed things up.

TO_Blythe says:
@*FCO*, CTO: The hull is deteriorating fast.

CNS_Savar says:
CSO: Unknown.  I assume the captain has an escape plan.

CSO_Jones says:
#::feels rumbling throughout the ship::
Rhen : It'll take me just a few seconds to open it.. but I don't know exactly what's wrong with it.. ::taking the enhancer apart while talking::

CSO_Tyler says:
CNS: Knowing are Captain he does. I just hope it works

FCO_Rhen says:
#CSO: Just poke...stuff...until it works again.

FCO_Rhen says:
#::heads off to look for that lifesign, Tricorder in one hand, phaser in the other::

CNS_Savar says:
CSO: I am recieving a report from Ensign Lomax.  Perhaps you would like to read it.  ::Transfers report to CSO's display::

Host CO_Reed says:
@::looks down at the PADD he has counting down from the time the AT beamed over::

CEO_JJ says:
@::uses internal sensors to chech for distortions inside the ship::

CTO_Matt says:
@::does a scan of the Thomas, centering on the lower decks::

CSO_Jones says:
#Rhen : It appears to be a cracked focusing diode.. ::pulls out a replacement from his "toolbox" and puts the enhancer back together::

TO_Blythe says:
@::monitoring the countdown... about to bite her nails::

CSO_Tyler says:
::begins to read the report. Looks back up at the CNS in disbelief::

Host CO_Reed says:
@*AT*:  30 seconds..

CNS_Savar says:
CSO: The AT has 30 seconds.

FCO_Rhen says:
#::finds the wall and a door leading to the other side which he readily walks through::

CSO_Jones says:
#Rhen : In ten second press that button there. ::points::

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The alien ship begins to break up violently.  There are explosions all over it.

Host CO_Reed says:
@FCO Billy-Bob:  Prepare to get us out of here at maximum speed.

FCO_Rhen says:
#*CO* Tell me something I don't know.

TO_Blythe says:
@CTO: Emergency beamup for the AT?

CTO_Matt says:
@::looks at the CO:

CEO_JJ says:
@::looks at the core:: Ship [myself] : I spent enough time putting you back together don't fall apart on me again

Host CO_Reed says:
@*AT*:  10 seconds..

CNS_Savar says:
CSO: Hull ruptures violent.  10...

CSO_Tyler says:
Self:: come one get out of there

FCO_Rhen says:
#::runs back to the transport cooridnates::

CSO_Jones says:
#::prepares to press the button::

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: Just as the alien ship explodes, there is a bright flash of light over both vessels.

CNS_Savar says:
CSO: Time's up.  The vessel has exploded.

Host CO_Reed says:
@::shields eyes::

CTO_Matt says:
@::shades his eyes from the bright flash of light::

CEO_JJ says:
@::feels a much larger jolt then looks down::

TO_Blythe says:
@::without orders, trying to beam the officers back to the ship::

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The alien vessel disintegrates and falls towards the planets.  The AT is back in teh TR and there is an alien in sickbay.

CEO_JJ says:
@*Bridge*: did we get them back?

CMO_Rex says:
@::blinks::

CNS_Savar says:
CSO: The AT and the alien is safe.

Host CO_Reed says:
@Billy-Bob:  Engage!

CMO_Rex says:
@::starts a scan on the alien::

CSO_Tyler says:
::deep sigh::

CEO_JJ says:
@::readies switches power from the Tractor Beam to the Warp Core, Shields, and SIF::

CEO_JJ says:
-readies

FCO_Rhen says:
@::blinks and looks up from the transporter pad::  CSO: we are alive, how odd.

CNS_Savar says:
CSO: They are heading back to the station.

TO_Blythe says:
@::looks at her console:: *CEO* I think we do have them here, sir.

CTO_Matt says:
@::blinks his eyes to get the spots out of them and looks at his console::  Sir, the ship is falling towards the planets, and there appears to be an alien intruder in sickbay, with the AT in the transport room.

CSO_Jones says:
@Rhen : You sound just like a Vulcan... ::smiles::

TO_Blythe says:
@::wonders if they are back because of her tampering with the transporters without authorization or what?::

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: Thomas escapes from the gravity well, but the engines are greatly strained.

FCO_Rhen says:
@::looks sideways at the CSO and mockingly raises an eyebrow::  CSO:  Indeed?

CEO_JJ says:
@::looks at the core:: Engineering: OK get to work we still have to keep this ship working till we get back to Arcadia

CSO_Jones says:
@::winks at the FCO and leaves the Transporter Room::

FCO_Rhen says:
@::follows the CSO out of the TR and enters a TL::  TL: Bridge

Host CO_Reed says:
@*CEO*:  If we stop now, how long will it take to make repairs to our engines?

CMO_Rex says:
@::examnies the alien::

TO_Blythe says:
@::the rush of adrenaline is over... although... there's something else she can still do::

CEO_JJ says:
@*CO*: I am still getting some reports on damage sir, but at the moment it seems best to continue towards the station

TO_Blythe says:
@CTO: Do you think we might need a security officer in sickbay just in case the alien is dangerous? ::about to beg to go see the alien, feeling so much AT deprived::

FCO_Rhen says:
@::smiles at the TO as he walks onto the bridge, trying to recover from a bit of dizziness and nausea he felt after the flash of light::

CSO_Jones says:
@::arives back on the Bridge::
Reed : Captain, what happened?

Host CO_Reed says:
@*CEO*:  Time makes no difference.  I just do not want to damage the engines too much by putting such strain on them.  We are in no rush to get back to the station.

CTO_Matt says:
@TO:  Yes, you may go "guard" the alien.  :)

Host CO_Reed says:
@CSO:  You were a little slow.

CEO_JJ says:
@::is handed many PADDs from EOs just walking into Enginering then leaving to go back to their station::

CTO_Matt says:
@CO:  Sir, should we not have the AT checked out in sickbay?

TO_Blythe says:
@::would hug the CTO, but stands at attention for a moment:: CTO: Thank you, sir! ::grins broadly before turning to the TL::

TO_Blythe says:
@::enters the TL:: TL: Deck 5

CEO_JJ says:
@*CO*: let's see here, we have at least four hours worth of core repair, we need to check the nacelles, Impulse teams are reporting some porblems, SIF and IDF will need some work

TO_Blythe says:
@::exits the TL and walks into sickbay, eager to take a look at the alien:: CMO: I was assigned to guard the alien, sir.

CEO_JJ says:
@*CO*: It looks like we will have to replace most of the tractor beam

CMO_Rex says:
@::glances at the TO:: If you like... have seat. :>

FCO_Rhen says:
@::makes his way down to Flight Control and replaces Billy Bob at the helm::

Host CO_Reed says:
@*CEO*:  We can replace parts once we are back at Arcadia.  I just do not want to cause any permanent damage to our engines.

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: Another flash of light appears on the bridge.

TO_Blythe says:
@::now this is a cool CMO:: CMO: Thank you sir, but I should remain alert during duty... you know ::smiles::

Host CO_Reed says:
@::instinctively blinks::

CTO_Matt says:
@::shades his eyes again::

CSO_Jones says:
@::covers her eyes as a magnificent light fills the Bridge::

TO_Blythe says:
@::snifs... mothballs and mint... sort of smells like her granny's house, especially for the mothballs part::

CEO_JJ says:
*CO*: The shields are slightly damaged, until they are repaired best I can get you on those is 90%, the engines are OK so far, so no need to worry about the strain

FCO_Rhen says:
@::feels strange for a second, and then all of his previous dizziness and nausea is gone::

Host CO_Reed says:
@::sits down, feeling a bit uneasy::

CMO_Rex says:
@TO: 'f you like.

CMO_Rex says:
@*CO* This alien isn't showing any signs of life, but I'm not certain that that means it's dead.

CEO_JJ says:
@::wonders why he isn't getting a response::

TO_Blythe says:
@CMO: So... what is it sir? If you don't mind my asking, of course... first day on the bridge, I'm so nervous... ::babbling... sigh::

Host AGMDave says:
