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

CEO_JJ says:
@::at Conn on Thomas coming back to the station from the last run to the substations:: COMM: Arc: Thomas to Arcadia, The substations are off. I'm coming back in.

Host CO_Reed says:
$::sees the Station in the distance::  COMM: Arcadia Station:  This is Captain Reed on Runabout Mississippi, have you got a place open for me to dock?

CSO_Tyler says:
COMM: Roger Captain. We're ready to receive you on dock # 3

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The last of the transport vessels move out of sensor range and the 8th fleet, save the USS Colt, are preparign to depart.

CEO_JJ says:
@::flips the Thomas around and heads back 1/2 impulse::

CTO_Matt says:
::watches the space around Arcadia, making sure everything is quiet::

Host CO_Reed says:
$::sets autopilot to take over for the rest of the trip::

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The autopilot malfunctions and sends the Mississippi into a spin.

CSO_Tyler says:
COMM: Runabout missippi whats your status

CEO_JJ says:
@::sees that the Mississipi is having trouble:: COMM: Miss: Captain, you need some help ::speeds up some::

Host CO_Reed says:
$::takes autopilot off and re-establishes control of the Runabout::

CTO_Matt says:
::sees the Mississippi go into a spin::

CEO_JJ says:
@::sets the viewer to auto pull out as heading towards the station makes it even bigger at it's current zoom::

Host CO_Reed says:
$::manually heads to the docking bay::

Host AdmFarley says:
COMM:AS: Arcadia, this is Farley.  I have some orders to relay to you before I depart.

CSO_Tyler says:
COMM Farley: Go ahead Admiral

Host CO_Reed says:
$::listens in on the communication to Arcadia::

CTO_Matt says:
::listens to the Admiral::

Host AdmFarley says:
COMM:AS: Is Captain Reed patched in?

Host CO_Reed says:
$COMM: Admiral:  I hear you.

CSO_Tyler says:
::checks comm status::  COMM: Yes he is sir

CEO_JJ says:
@::watches main viewer of Arcadia in the visual comm that is taking up half the screen on the Thomas's Main Viewer::

Host CO_Reed says:
$::activates his viewscreen and sees a split screen -  Arcadia on left, Admiral on right::

CEO_JJ says:
@::slows back down to 1/2 impulse::

Host CO_Reed says:
$::starts the docking procedure::

Host AdmFarley says:
COMM:ALL: OK.  The senior staff of Arcadia is to use the Thomas to proceed to the Endrokin System, about two days distant.  A passing probe has detected an anamoly that just plain appeared there.

CEO_JJ says:
@::requests docking from the CTO::

Host CO_Reed says:
$::adjusts speed::

CTO_Matt says:
::taps in clearance for the Thomas at Docking Bay 3.

Host CO_Reed says:
$::completes the docking procedure, but waits for the Admiral to finish before exiting::

Host AdmFarley says:
COMM:ALL: Apparently, there is no civilization there, so it is a mystery as to how it appeared.  There are also some temporal aspects to this thing as well.  Starfleet has no science vessels near the area, therefore Thomas gets to go.

CSO_Tyler says:
COMM: Do you have any sensor readings we can have from the anamoly??

CEO_JJ says:
@::adjusts course to match Arcadia's rotation:: self: now it will look like I am heading away, I'll probably hear it for this

Host AdmFarley says:
COMM:ALL:  I will send you all the information that SFC sent me on the system and the anamoly.  But to surmise, the system is composed of mostly asteroids and three large, but dead worlds.  The anamoly is even more mysterious.

CEO_JJ says:
@::begins to return the phasers to normal firing, currently they are too narrow for weapons use::

Host AdmFarley says:
COMM:AS: ::sends the data file::

CSO_Tyler says:
::confirms the reception of the file::

CTO_Matt says:
::places the Thomas on a holding pattern, removing the clearance since the ship is going out anyway::

Host CO_Reed says:
::adjusts his comm badge to pick up any more communication, then leaves the runabout heading for station ops::

CEO_JJ says:
@::gets file data from Arcadia and puts it on the left side of the Conn Console:: ::begins to spin back and forth between data and phaser modification::

Host AdmFarley says:
COMM:ALL:  There has never been any sort of technology recorded in this system.  There is some record of a small, privately funded research lab there about a hundred years ago, but it was abandoned.

CEO_JJ says:
@::sends flight plan to CTO and re-requests clearence::

CSO_Tyler says:
COMM Admiral: Any idea why?? and was the lab left intact??

CTO_Matt says:
::punches up any info on the system and that research lab::

Host AdmFarley says:
COMM:ALL: That is all I have.  There is no further information on the lab.  I wish you all good luck.  It was a pleasure working with you.

CEO_JJ says:
@::continues same flight path, and sets a holding pattern incase clearence isn't received in time::

Host AdmFarley says:
COMM:ALL:  USS Colt out.

CSO_Tyler says:
::turns to the senior crew in OPS::   ALL: Looks like we have our work cut out

Host CO_Reed says:
*COMM: Admiral:*  It was nice to work with you, too, sir.  ::rides a turbolift to Station Ops::

CEO_JJ says:
@::phasers back to normal operations, test fires on some space dust::

CTO_Matt says:
::looks to the CSO::  CSO:  sounds like we do, Sir.

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION:  The 8th fleet warps out of the Arcadia System at different angles.

CSO_Tyler says:
CTO: Inform the Thomas to prepare for departure. Make sure we have a security team onboard also

CTO_Matt says:
CSO:  Yes Sir.

Host CO_Reed says:
::arrives in Station Ops, then looks around::

CSO_Tyler says:
ALL: Captain on Deck

CEO_JJ says:
COMM: *CSO*: The Thomas has already departed, I am coming in to pick you guys up, should I dock or shall we do a transport?

CTO_Matt says:
COMM:  CEO:  Sir, prepare for departure.  The Senior staff will be beaming aboard shortly.

Host CO_Reed says:
ALL:  You have heard the orders.  CSO, CTO, head to the Thomas.  I will join you soon.

CEO_JJ says:
@COMM: *CTO*: I am coming in ::increases speed:: transporter range in one minute

CTO_Matt says:
CO:  Yes, Sir.  ::leaves Tactical station and heads for the transporters::

CSO_Tyler says:
CO: understood sir  ::signals for science team alpha to meet in transporter room 2::

Host CO_Reed says:
::walks to his ready room and unlocks a drawer::

CSO_Tyler says:
*CEO* : My team and I will be beaming over shortly JJ

CEO_JJ says:
@::activates holding pattern flight path so that he doesn't hit the station::

CSO_Tyler says:
TL: Transporter room 2

CTO_Matt says:
COMM:  Security:  Security Teams Alpha and Beta report to Transporter room 3.

CTO_Matt says:
COMM:  CTO:  Yes, Sir.

CEO_JJ says:
@*CSO*: No problem sir, ::increases warp field containment strength::

Host CO_Reed says:
::pulls a shiny black box out of the drawer, then exits his ready room and walks to the transporter room::

CTO_Matt says:
::Rides the TL to Transporter Room 3 and exits the TL::

CSO_Tyler says:
::enters transporter room2 with his crew..steps onto the pad  and nods to the chief::   TChief: energize

Host CO_Reed says:
::arrives in TR3 just after the CTO::

CSO_Tyler says:
::materializes on Transporter Padd on the Thomas. Nods to the chief and heads for the Main Bridge::

CEO_JJ says:
@::slows to 1/4 impulse::

CTO_Matt says:
::steps onto the pad with a security team, after Alpha team already beamed aboard::  TChief:  energize.

Host CO_Reed says:
::standing on the transporter pad along with the CTO and security team::

CSO_Tyler says:
::enters the bridge and takes the science station::

CEO_JJ says:
@CSO: Sir

CTO_Matt says:
::beams with the CO and the security team to the Thomas.  Once there, he heads to the bridge::

CSO_Tyler says:
CEO: Lt. ::nods::

CTO_Matt says:
::steps out of the TL and onto the bridge, taking his spot at tactical::

Host CO_Reed says:
::walks to the bridge::

Host CO_Reed says:
::finds his chair::

CEO_JJ says:
::likes the Conn Station:: ALL: Captain on Bridge

Host CO_Reed says:
ALL:  At ease.

CEO_JJ says:
CO: Sir, glad to have you back, how was your trip?

Host CO_Reed says:
CEO:  It was quite uneventful.  If you're going to be flying us tonight, set a course for the Endrokin System.

CEO_JJ says:
::sets course:: CO: At your command

Host CO_Reed says:
CEO:  Engage.

CEO_JJ says:
::engages::

Host CO_Reed says:
Senior staff:  Meeting in the observation lounge.

Host CO_Reed says:
::walks to the lounge::

CTO_Matt says:
CO:  Yes Sir.

Host AGMDave ACTION: The Thomas warps towards its goal. (Warp.wav)

CEO_JJ says:
::Sets station to automatic while a junior officer gets ready to take over then walks ot the OL::

CTO_Matt says:
::walks to the lounge beind the captain::

CSO_Tyler says:
CO: Aye sir ..::gets up and heads for the observation lounge::

Host CO_Reed says:
::walks to the end of the table, then sets down his black box::

CTO_Matt says:
::sits down at the table, next to the Captain::

CEO_JJ says:
::sits at CEO's Position the second chair on the left::

CSO_Tyler says:
::takes his seat. And gives his uniform a quick tug::

Host CO_Reed says:
::takes a deep breath::

CEO_JJ says:
::wonders if there is a problem with the Captain, but waits to see what happens::

Host CO_Reed says:
Ensign Matthew Loran, by order of Starfleet Command, I hereby promote you to Lt. Junior Grade.  ::opens the box to reveal a shiny new pip::

CTO_Matt says:
::looks at the Captain and stands::

CSO_Tyler says:
::smiles brightly and nods his head in agreement::

CEO_JJ says:
::smiles and is glad that the CTO gets a promotions, Finally::

Host CO_Reed says:
::takes the pip and places it next to the old one on the CTO's collar::

Host CO_Reed says:
Congratulations, Lt. Loran.

CTO_Matt says:
CO:  Thank you Sir.  ::extends his hand to shake the Captains::

Host CO_Reed says:
::shakes the Lt's hand::

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: After two days travel, the Thomas arrives just outside the Endrokin System.

CEO_JJ says:
::In Engineering working on various systems::

CSO_Tyler says:
::at the scinece station viewing the approach::

Host CO_Reed says:
::staring blankly at the main viewer::

CTO_Matt says:
::scans the approaching system, looking for the anomaly and the research lab::

CSO_Tyler says:
::checks the NAV deflector to ensure safety from the asteroids::

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: Sensors immediately detect the anamoly near the center of the system.  It is 1.5 AU in diameter, and growing.

CEO_JJ says:
::Readies the core for extra power production in the case it is needed::

Host CO_Reed says:
::hears the sensor alerts:: CSO:  What have you got?

CSO_Tyler says:
CO: Captain.. I have a reading on the lab..its located on the second planet.

CTO_Matt says:
CO:  Sir, should I activate shields with there being an asteroid field in this system?

CEO_JJ says:
::Wonders if yellow alert would be a preudnet idea::

CSO_Tyler says:
CO: The anamoly is located near the center of the system..and it seems to be growing sir...the readings are kind of confusing

Host CO_Reed says:
CTO:  That probably wouldn't be a bad idea.

CTO_Matt says:
CO:  Yes Sir.  ::activates shields::

Host CO_Reed says:
CSO:  Can you find the probe?

CTO_Matt says:
::takes scans of the anamoly and scans to data banks to get a picture of the system before this anamoly::

CEO_JJ says:
::orders his EO's to act as if it is yellow alert, and that there is no telling what this anomoly will do::

CSO_Tyler says:
CO: Scanning

CEO_JJ says:
and = because

Host CO_Reed says:
FCO_BillyBob:  Keep us a safe distance from that anomaly.

CTO_Matt says:
CO:  Sir, that anamoly is where the second planet should have been.

Host CO_Reed says:
<FCO_BillyBob> CO:  Aye, sir.

Host CO_Reed says:
CTO:  Can you tell if the planet is still there, but perhaps being hidden by the anomaly?

CTO_Matt says:
::tries to scan inside the anamoly, seeing if there might be another universe or dimension or something inside it, possibly where everything is being pulled::

CSO_Tyler says:
CO: No sign of the probe sir.. If I had to guess, i would say its inside the anamoly

CTO_Matt says:
CO:  Sir, I don't believe so, and I cannot penetrate into  the anamoly.

Host CO_Reed says:
CSO:  Prepare a probe of our own to send into the anomaly.

CSO_Tyler says:
::readies a Class IV probe::   CO: Probe ready

Host CO_Reed says:
CSO:  Fire when ready.

CSO_Tyler says:
CO: probe launched

CEO_JJ says:
::awaits news from bridge::

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The probe spins around the anamoly and is torn apart before getting close.

Host CO_Reed says:
Self:  Fascinating.
