Host CO_Ayidee says:
Ship's log, Stardate 10707.01, Captain Ayidee recording.  The Cherokee is continuing pursuit of the Hook after the Hook's unexplained departure from Starbase 33 during the anniversary celebration.  While we still do not know what caused them to depart without notice, we do know that two of our crew are currently aboard, and those two would not leave us in the dark.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
Acting Captain's Log, Stardate 10707.01. We have discovered the Hook has been hijacked and have made our way to Engineering. We were able to take control of Engineering but are now locked in with no way out. All we can do now is just wait. Hopefully the Cherokee will catch up soon.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Rises from the floor, groggily reaching for the desk top.::  *aXO*: Commander, what happened?

Host Adm-Alexander says:
::Sitting on her bottom, next to the Captain's chair::

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
*CO* Sir, were still in pursuit of the Hook, she pulled a fast one on us and were experiencing a power drain as an after effect of bumping into a couple of mines.  Are you alright, sir?

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: walks over to the Admiral, offering a hand to her to help her back up. ::

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@::In Engineering, awaiting their next move having gathered the unconscious Hook officer in a circle.::

OPS_Nash says:
::on Bridge, at OPS::

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
::Grabs himself up from the floor, and starts to inspect the flight console::

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
FCO: How fast can you get us back after the Hook, Cadet?

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CTO:  Thank you Mark.  I am fine, just my pride is hurt.

CNS_Wells says:
@::Still trying to gather information from Hook's computers::

CMO_McDonald says:
:: in sickbay, finalizing reports and finishing treating the wounded ::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
*aXO*: I'll be fine, must have been one of the impacts, knocked me into the desk.  I'll be on the Bridge in a few moments.  ::Stands up, making way towards the door, slowly at first until legs get back stable.::

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
Adm: I wish that was the least of our casualties.

Ens_Rain says:
::Reads the reports coming in from various decks::

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
*CO*: Sir, if you took a bump to the head you might want to visit Sickbay.  Concussions are tricky like that.

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
aXO: I am checking my flight console. I will let you know, as fast as I can. Yet I suggest we should fly a parallel course.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
TO:  Ensign Rain, what is the present course heading for the Hook?

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@CNS: Anything yet?

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
FCO: Good thinking, do it.  I want you to keep a close eye on our friends.  They suckered us good and I don't want them to get the drop on us again.

CNS_Wells says:
@aCO: Not yet Sir. Most systems have been blocked.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Exits the Ready Room.::  aXO: I'll get checked out shortly.  I can still function.  ::Moves and drops in the center seat.::

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
OPS: Contact Engineering and see if they can ionize the hull plating, see if they can knock that junk off the hull.

Ens_Rain says:
ADM: They are continuing on the same course ::glances at console:: and making pretty good time.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Rain: Any guess at destination?

CMO_McDonald says:
:: finalizes everything in sickbay :: *CO* How’s everyone up there?  All wounded have been treated, and those that didn't make it have been put in the morgue for autopsy later.

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
CO: Captain, I've just had a really bad thought about why they took the Hook.  What are Medical Ships used for specifically?

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@CNS: Can you get any telemetry?  Do you have any idea where this bucket is heading?

Host Adm-Alexander says:
TO:  Is the power still being drained?  If so, what can we do about it?

CNS_Wells says:
@::Can't seem to access ship's census data::

OPS_Nash says:
::nods at Cmdr. Hazzard's requested order.::

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
ADM: I'm having Engineering see if we can knock that junk off the hull by ionizing the hull plating.

CNS_Wells says:
@aCO: I'll keep trying, Sir.

Ens_Rain says:
CO: The Hook is still on course for the Badlands.

Ens_Rain says:
ADM: A torpedo would do the trick, but it would scratch the paint job to say the least.

OPS_Nash says:
*ENG*:  See if you can ionize the hull plating to knock off any debris that is attached to the outer hull.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
OPS: When done with that, make a comm contact with the Hook.  I think I saw how they got control of it, and if so, we can likely get in with out much trouble.  Self:  Assuming I'm not hallucinating.

CMO_McDonald says:
:: gets up from his chair and heads out of sickbay ::

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
FCO: Keep us at Warp 6 for now.  Do what you can to hold speed.

OPS_Nash says:
CO:  Yes, Sir.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@::trains the Phaser rifle on the prisoners, waiting for some of them to wake::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
aXO: You familiar with why Security Over Rides don't call security if you type in a day old code?

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
aXO: I think everything works. I can try to reach warp 6.

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
CO: Captain, seriously, are you going to be alright?

CNS_Wells says:
@aCO: Tries to check into navigational trajectory systems to discover our destination and/or location. Unable to get Hook's bridge compliment.

OPS_Nash says:
COM: Hook:  This is the USS Cherokee, please respond.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
*CMO*: When you get Sickbay cleared, I could use you on the Bridge, with a Med Kit.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
ACTION:  The power levels on the Cherokee continue to drop.

Ens_Rain says:
aXO: Engineering has suggested that verteron rays could case the mines to disengage from the hull, we can fire them off at your command.

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
CO: Gives you three tries to correct your error and then locks you out and informs security.  Mostly for "human" error.

CMO_McDonald says:
*CO* I'm already on my way up with one in hand. I'll see you momentarily.

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
TO: Do it.  The sooner they are off the hull the sooner we can get back to catching the Hook!

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
aXO: Sir, I can not keep the speed at warp 6. I hope I can keep it at warp 5.

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
FCO: Do your best Cadet.  Hopefully we'll be able to fix this power drain problem shortly.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Nods.::  aXO: That's how they got control.  Used an old code.  Decades old, actually.  From when the ship had a different name, and a Lieutenant named LoDuca.

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
::Slowly trying to move the ship out of the track of the hook.::

CMO_McDonald says:
:: watches as the doors to the bridge open as Lennier steps out :: CO: What’s up?

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: stares at the CO for a moment, then swears in a loud and very ancient Andorian curse. ::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
aXO: Once they had the computer open, they sent multiple requests on multiple systems until one worked.  It should leave the ship open to a counteract attempt.  Will help if we can catch them.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CO:  My, my, my.  How did you find that out?

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
CO: I KNEW it!   He's going to use the Hook's medical equipment to fine tune that Romulan Leukemia crud he cooked up.

Ens_Rain says:
::Nods and executes a program the has the Cherokee send verteron rays directed at the mines:: 

CMO_McDonald says:
:: looks to the AXO:: Mr. Hazzard, now that’s no way to talk! :: chuckles ::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
CMO: I had an encounter with a rapidly approaching desk top, need to make sure I'm fit to stay in the seat.

CNS_Wells says:
@::Trying to look optimistic about situation but, feels discouraged.  Would really like to be face to face with his captors right now::

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
CMO: It is after finding out that Paul LoDuca is out there, and he's got the XO and the Counselor.  I am not letting that maniac get his hands on Trent and Gary.

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
::Slowly, but steadily has the ship take a different course. Bit up and right of the Hooks travel path:: aXO: We are slowly breaking away from the hooks travel path. But, I do not dare to say so, but we dropped below warp5.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@CNS: Do you think we could reroute the power conduits to short out the force field?

CMO_McDonald says:
:: Smiles:: AXO: Like a good Chief tactical officer should ::

CMO_McDonald says:
:: runs a quick scan over Tio :: CO: Tio, you're good to go a mild concussion but nothing to be worried about.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Adm: That's what I was looking into in the Ready Room, going over the Hook's Computer logs before they broke off from the station.  From what I saw, I think Commander Montegue already knows also.

CNS_Wells says:
@aCO: It's worth a try.

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
TO: Ens Rain, implement your suggestion.  Get us back to full power so I can personally ram one of the nacelles into a orifice of one Paul LoDuca.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
CMO: Thanks Doctor.

CMO_McDonald says:
CO: Need an extra hand up here? Everything’s quiet in Sickbay.  For now at least.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
ACTION:  The mines release the verteron rays.  Now comes the waiting game.

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
::Warp is dropping to warp 4 as the Cherokee reaches a  distance of 300,000km out of the travel path of the hook.:: aXO: Warp 4 and dropping. Distance to the Hook’s travel path is 300,000k now. And we are far enough out of the hooks travel path, at least that is what I think.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
::chuckles from the mental image of the CTO's statement::

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
CO: You can expect that bloody Warbird of his will be waiting for him.  This is going to be an ugly fight if that ungainly green monstrosity is waiting for us.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
ACTION:  There is no response from the Hook to OPS' hail.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
CMO: Give a hand to Ensign Rain, make sure those mines get clear fast.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
OPS: Using your Security Codes as an over ride, punch through their comm system to get word to Commander Worthington, if you can.  Send one message, Ryleigh calling, please respond.

CMO_McDonald says:
CO: understood will take tactical 2 and help out :: jogs up to tactical 2 and punches a few commands in ::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
aXO: Will be uglier for a pair of officers on their own.

OPS_Nash says:
CO:  Understood.

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: walks over to the Tactical Station. :: TO: Make sure we're able to defend ourselves if it comes down to it.  I know were gonna be outgunned bad.  Counting on you to give back as good as you can.

CMO_McDonald says:
Rain: I'm online, what’s your plan?

Ens_Rain says:
aXO: I've taken the liberty of glancing at the reports, I've been looking for a fair fight for a while ::grins::

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
CO: Captain, we all know LoDuca likes to talk.  Maybe we can throw him off his game.

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
aXO: Warp 3.

OPS_Nash says:
::using her magical security override codes, she sends a message through the Hook's comm system to Cmdr Worthington, stating "Ryleigh calling, please respond."::

Ens_Rain says:
CMO: We are using verteron rays to clear all the mines, just make sure we lose them all and gain the power we'd temporarily lost.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
ACTION:  The rays begin to work.  Very slowly, they begin to slip away and detach themselves from the Cherokee.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
aXO: If he knows we're coming, he'd already have called.  Nothing says he knows, unless those mines were active.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@CNS: I wonder why they haven't checked on engineering? It seems like they would want to know status down here at some point.

CMO_McDonald says:
Rain: Understood. Punches in the commands to start another run of verterons.::

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
aXO: Speed is holding at warp 3.

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
CO: You know him better than I do sir, heck, I haven't even spoken to that lunatic.  Don't know if I care too.  Anything I can say will be using my sticks.

Ens_Rain says:
aXO: The plan is working, I'm destroying them once they detach and are a safe distance away from the ship, don't want to be litterbugs after all.

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
TO/FCO: Good Work you two.  LoDoofus thinks he has us beat.  Lets show him how wrong he is!

Host CO_Ayidee says:
aXO: I'm just guessing, honestly.  But if he doesn't know, that makes us a wild card.

CNS_Wells says:
@aCO: Wouldn't they know we are on board? They did beam us over. I guess they know we are imprisoned here and haven't wanted to share their plan with us or their identity.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
ACTION:  As the mines continue to drop away, the Hook has made excellent progress on outrunning the Cherokee.  They are out of sensor range.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
FCO: Push the engines as hard as they'll go.

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
TO: Status of the Hook?

Ens_Rain says:
aXO: We are still gaining speed but the Hook has hit the edge of our sensor range, we've lost them.

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
aXO: Aye aye sir!!!

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
TO: Extend sensor range and extrapolate alternate courses she could take.  She's done the sudden course change trick on us a few times.  I won't fall for it again.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@CNS: Fair enough, yet something seems off here. Almost like they didn't expect us to be here, maybe they thought we are still in the Turbolift?

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CO:  This might be a good time to look for other mines.  Once bitten, twice shy, so to speak.

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
::As the mines broke away speed is cranking up to warp 4. :: aXO: Warp 4!

CNS_Wells says:
@aCO: Either that or Paul and Diana are enjoying playing their mind games with us.

Ens_Rain says:
::Nods and does as Hazzard orders::

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
CO: Maybe we could use the tractor beam to deflect incoming mine fields before they impact on us, tie it in with the deflector dish emitter?

CNS_Wells says:
@aCO: I suppose that is a possibility.

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
aXO: Sir we are on an excellent parallel path. That is fine, except for the speed.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Rain: Sensors aren't our only eyes.  All Federation ships make regular time checks with the Comm Satellite net.  We can use them to get a general course.  Unless they thought ahead and considered that, we should be able to know about where they are.

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
FCO: Pedal to the Metal, Cadet.  We'll catch them!

Ens_Rain says:
aXO: I've increased the sensor range but they are still out of it, must be making good time.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@CNS: Forget getting out of here, let's slow this bucket down. Let's see if we can set off the warp core alarms and take us out of warp.

CMO_McDonald says:
:: thinks to self :: Rain: what about tying the sensors in with navigational sensors? That might give us a bit more range.

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
::Tweaking a bit on the console, looking for ways in the online books for creating a better speed::

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
TO: Do a short range sweep for more mine fields, I don't think they are done with that trick.

CNS_Wells says:
@aCO: What would you like me to do? You want me to see if I can bring one of these guys around? ::Motions to the five:: aCO: Maybe you might get some answers from them?

Ens_Rain says:
CMO: Give it a try, I’ll be watching for any more mines headed our way.

CNS_Wells says:
@CO: Warp core alarms, got it. 

Host CO_Ayidee says:
aXO/FCO: And keep us at alternating angles from the most direct path, if the mines are in their path, we need to at least try and keep them off it.

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
Self: Aha! Found a small way to relay something, so the speed must go up again.

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
aXO: We will reach warp 5…now.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@::starts firing shots off around the warp core, seeing what happens::

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
FCO: You heard the Captain, Cadet.  Give us a bit of zig and zag.  Might give us a bit more working room to avoid future mine fields.

CNS_Wells says:
@aCO: I'll check the systems. ::Checks systems to see if the aCO's idea is possible::

CMO_McDonald says:
:: taps a few buttons tying everything in together :: Rain: okay bring the sensor modifications online. All sensors attached.

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
CO: We are flying above and right of the flight path of the Hook sir. But a zig-zag might not cause problems.

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
CO: I swear if I catch that guy, I'm going to personally invent new definitions of pain.

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
aXO: Yes sir, I am zigzagging.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
ACTION:  The firing from the aCO has no effect.  There is a force field around the core.

CNS_Wells says:
@aCO: If the warp core explodes that will certainly get someone's attention, Sir ::Smiles::

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
FCO: Current speed, cadet?

CNS_Wells says:
@aCO: System report says the warp core is encased in a force field too. I guess they thought of everything.  I think this room was meant to be a cell.

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
aXO: Warp 5 and a half, with some pain in the but.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@CNS: I hate just sitting here, I wish there was something we could do.

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: mutters to himself before taking a seat in the XO's chair, fixing it as it seems a bit hunched over. ::

CNS_Wells says:
@aCO: What about waking these guys up?

CMO_McDonald says:
CO: sensor adjustments are working but the Hook is still outta range.

CNS_Wells says:
@aCO: Should we try? ::Sees if he can get a large glass of ice water from the Replicator::

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
FCO: Tell Engineering to push this crate as hard as it can go.  I do NOT want to lose that ship.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
OPS: Keep trying to get the message through to them.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@CNS: Be my guest. I will cover him. If he makes a move, it's back to sleep land. ::points his Phaser and motions for him to go ahead::

CNS_Wells says:
@::Splashes the frigid water in the face of the officer with the most pips::

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
aXO: Yes sir, I will ask them for some extra power.

OPS_Nash says:
::continuing to use her security override codes, she continues to sends a message through the Hook's comm system to Cmdr Worthington, stating "Ryleigh calling , please respond."::

Host EOMayes says:
::stirs with the water thrown in his face::

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
Ops: Can you reroute some power, so we can speed up to warp 7?

CNS_Wells says:
@:: Draws Phaser::

Host EOMayes says:
::looks around, eyes glassy::

OPS_Nash says:
FCO:  I'll do what I can, no promises.  ::she attempts to find more power for the FCO::

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
Ops: Do you copy? Ah ok.

Host EOMayes says:
ACTION:  The XO hears the communication from OPS.

CNS_Wells says:
@aCO: One wet but awake EO for you Sir. Question ahead and don’t be afraid to get physical, if needed.

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
FCO: Cadet,  concentrate on getting me more speed.  Let the OPS do her job.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@COM: OPS: Ryleigh? This is Worthington.

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
TO: Status on Phasers and Torps?  Are we going to be able to give more than just a stern gaze?

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@CNS: Shake him down, I got to take this.

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
aXO: We need more power, else we cannot speed up sir. Speed is still at warp 5.5. How hard I try. WE NEED MORE POWER!

CNS_Wells says:
@::Is delighted by the COM call and keeps his eye on the EO::

Ens_Rain says:
::Instructs the system to give one more, hopefully last burst::

Host EOMayes says:
::his eyes finally focus::  CNS:  Thank god!  Has the ship been taken back?

CNS_Wells says:
@EO: Wake up you traitorous piece of puke. You got some 'splainin' to do. 

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
::Ticking nervously on the console. Hopefully that comment will not be taken personally::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
FCO: Relax, stay focused, and concentrate on the task at hand.  We know the situation.

Ens_Rain says:
aXO: It's like they are multiplying.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
COM: aCO: Commander, they used an old set of codes to "open the door" for a security over ride hack job.  Your command codes should be able to bypass their control and turn it over to you.  We're on our way at best possible speed.

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
TO: What was that last comment?  What’s multiplying?

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: walks over to the Tactical station. ::

CNS_Wells says:
@EO: Don't be funny. Who is in command of this ship? ::waves Phaser in EO's face::

Host EOMayes says:
ACTION:  The beams hit the rest of the mines as they are hit, they begin to detach.  The power levels all over the Cherokee begin to rise.

Ens_Rain says:
aXO: They aren't, just seems like they are,

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: smiles as he watches the power indicators go back to a good healthy green. :: FCO: Cadet, you want power?  I think you just got it.  Floor this puppy!

Host EOMayes says:
@CNS:  Be careful where you wave that thing!  I have been locked in engineering since the ceremonies began.  Who are you?

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
Self: Warp 5.5. Warp 5.5. Warp 5.5. still warp 5.5. Should i push it myself? Could slam this thing, but that does not make sense. And then the aXO behind me. Can I help it that this thing is as slow as a duck with 1 wing?

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@Computer: This is Captain Worthington, code Delta Tango Three Omega, please reroute all controls to Engineering.

CNS_Wells says:
@EO: Lt. Cmdr Garrison Wells, officially the executive officer of the Hook and for now I'll be asking the questions.

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
Self: What do i hear? More Power? Yeah baby, fly faster!

Host EOMayes says:
@<Computer> aCO:  Acknowledged.  All controls have now been routed to engineering.

CNS_Wells says:
@EO: Again who s in Command?  Explain your actions.

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
aXO: Well this ship is moving towards warp 6 sir.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@::moves to the control panel and orders the ship to stop. Also uses anesthezine gas on all decks but Engineering.::

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
aXO, OPS: Thanks for the power.

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
FCO: Keep accelerating and don't stop till we catch the Hook.

Host EOMayes says:
@CNS:  We were supposed to have a replacement the last I heard, then that mug over there ::pointing to a man out cold:: put a Phaser to my back, and I have been here ever since!

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
::Speed is accelerating. warp 6.1, 6.2, 6.3, 6.9, 7::

OPS_Nash says:
FCO:  No problem, just doing what I can to survive.

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
aXO: Warp 7 and climbing.

Host EOMayes says:
ACTION:  The Hook drops out of warp and the anesthezine gas knocks everyone out.  The Hook is now at a dead stop.

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
::Speed climbs up, warp 7.5, 7.9, warp 8::

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@CNS: I am going to begin transporting all life signs into the cargo bay and lock them in.

CMO_McDonald says:
:: shuts his console down ::

CNS_Wells says:
@EO: Can you fill me in on what's going on?  ::Looks at the man the EO pointed out:: EO: Who's he?

CNS_Wells says:
@aCO: That is good news, Captain.

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
aXO: Warp 8. That is the maximum, I can press out of it, for now.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@COM: Cherokee: This is Captain Worthington. I have stopped the takeover attempt of the Hook and have restored control. Please rendezvous at the following coordinates.

Host EOMayes says:
@CNS:  Beats the crap out of me.  He just appeared out of nowhere!

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
FCO: That’s alright, Cadet.  Good job.  Set a course for those coordinates and be ready for anything out of the ordinary!

Host CO_Ayidee says:
OPS: Let him know we're on our way.

CNS_Wells says:
@EO: These other two, are they with him?

Host EOMayes says:
@::shakes his head::  CNS:  One is ours and I don't know the other one.

OPS_Nash says:
CO:  Will do.

CMO_McDonald says:
CO: Looks like everything’s under control up here. Need me still or no?

FCO_Cdt_Zdunovski says:
::Accepting a pad, with the plotted coordinates. Putting them into the flight system, and changing course to the coordinates:: aXO: Course is plotted sir. We are on the way. Oh, and uhm, this is your PADD.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@CNS: I am going to send the rest to the Cargo Bays where they will be locked in and then we will go to the bridge.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
CMO:  I would feel a lot better if you checked his head once more.  ::grinning::  We don't need a berserk Cait in command.

OPS_Nash says:
COM:   Worthington: We are on our way, Commander.  Can't wait to have you guys home.

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
COM: Worthington: Worthington, this is...grr, this is Treeboy.  We suspect that our old friends are responsible for this mess.  Best to keep your eyes open.

Host EOMayes says:
@CNS:  Look, we were just in here checking on the antimatter injectors.  I am just part of the maintenance crew.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@::transports the rest of the Hook crew to the cargo bay where they are locked in.:: CNS: Let's head to the bridge.

aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: shoots a evil look to OPS as he knows she got a kick out of that. ::

CNS_Wells says:
@aCO: Understood Sir. What about these five? This guy claims some including himself are victims. The others the culprits.

CMO_McDonald says:
CO: My pleasure. :: runs  scan one more time :: CO: still the same. minor concussion, shouldn't be anything to worry about but if you feel extra dizzy or start getting insomnia. Come to sickbay.
