Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
Acting Captain's Log, Stardate 10904.05 : The Cherokee is currently attempting to punch through the center of the Ion Storm, damage reports continue to come in as we endeavor to traverse the storm. We also seem to be encountering a sense of deja vu as I know I've done this before.

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Begin Mission >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Host XO_Ayidee says:
::On Bridge, trying to find a way through this mess and keep us in one piece.::

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::at her station::

Host Adm-Nokia says:
CO:  At this point, don't you think it might be prudent to withdraw from this storm?  I don't think the Cherokee can handle much more of this treatment.

CNS_Wells says:
::Working on setting up triage in Holodeck 1, with Vulcan MO Doctor E'ben and Nurse Amarie::

ACTION:  The computer denies access to the XO stating he does not have clearance.

FCO_LtJg_Zdunovski says:
::At the bridge, behind the console.::

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: continues to hold steady as he glances over at the FCO's console. :: FCO: How much progress have we made through the storm's interior?

CNS_Wells says:
Amarie: You'll act as go between for triage and sickbay, also get someone to make sure both areas are well stocked.

FCO_LtJg_Zdunovski says:
aCO: Sir? But I am not sure, how much. No progress, is perhaps the better answer. To make you unhappy, it is even getting worse.

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: curses and makes a hard decision. :: FCO: Lieutenant.  Full Reverse.  Get us out of this storm.  Best possible speed.

CNS_Wells says:
<Nurse_Amarie>: CNS: Yes, Doctor.  I'll start an assessment line as well.  ::Goes off to get started as injured begin to arrive with medic escorts::

Host XO_Ayidee says:
Computer: Restore access, Ayidee, Commander, Executive Officer, USS Cherokee.  Code 13000000000000013.

ACTION:  The computer denies access to the XO again.

FCO_LtJg_Zdunovski says:
aCO: Aye-aye sir.

Host XO_Ayidee says:
CO: Sir, I've been locked out of the computer, can't access Damage control, sensors, anything.

Host Adm-Nokia says:
<Computer>  XO:  Your authorization is not recognized.

FCO_LtJg_Zdunovski says:
::Presses some buttons, that should make the Cherokee go on a reversed course.::

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
OPS: Keep monitoring for any signs of transmissions coming or going from this area.

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
aCO:  As always, Sir.

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: looks up at the XO and frowns. :: Computer: Computer, recognize, Hazzard, Mark William. Commander.

ACTION:  The computer initiates intruder alert, as the XO has been told no twice.

CNS_Wells says:
Doctor E'ben: We will be getting all the less serious here.  Assess, diagnose, treatment plan, execution of treatment then either discharge or put out of the way to rest.  Morgue is in Cargo bay 1, if Sickbay's gets full.

FCO_LtJg_Zdunovski says:
::Wonders what is going behind him, as he hears, the XO is not able to access the computer.::

CNS_Wells says:
<MO_E'ben> CNS: Understood.  Will you be here or there, Sir?

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
Computer: Authorization Code Two Two Nine Sierra Tango Hazzard.  Authorize.

Host Adm-Nokia says:
CO:  Captain, what is going on here?  ::looks around and pulls his Phaser for intruders::

FCO_LtJg_Zdunovski says:
aCO: Sir? We are on a reverse course. But this is slow as well.

CNS_Wells says:
MO_E'ben: I'll get you started then return to Sickbay.  Let's get to work.

Host Adm-Nokia says:
<Computer>  CO:  Temporary access is granted, you have 5 minutes.

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
Adm: Admiral, with all due respect please SIT DOWN and put your Phaser away till we are in a safe area of space.

CNS_Wells says:
<MO_E'ben>: CNS: Yes, Doctor.  ::The two Doctor's get busy::

Host XO_Ayidee says:
CO/OPS: What happened?  Computer was working fine, then it asks for and denies access in the middle of a running disaster?

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
XO: Computer has probably been damaged due to the electrical bursts from the storm.

Host Adm-Nokia says:
CO:  Captain, are you sure the XO standing here is the one you have served with and not an impostor?  ::turning aiming at the XO::

FCO_LtJg_Zdunovski says:
::Raises an eyebrow.::

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: growls and steps in the Admiral's line of fire. :: Adm: Admiral.  Put.  Your. Phaser. DOWN!

Host XO_Ayidee says:
Adm: If I were an impostor, I would have done more than simply access damage reports or our limited sensor readings, Sir.

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::looks to the Admiral in stunned silence::

Host Adm-Nokia says:
CO:  Captain, I insist you have this man... er em person, remanded to the brig until I am assured he is who he is supposed to be.  If that is not clear, then let me remind you that I can take over command, granted to me by Starfleet.

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: sighs, looking at first to the XO and then back at the Admiral. :: *Security*: Security, please send an armed escort of two security officers to the bridge please.

FCO_LtJg_Zdunovski says:
::Turns his head around as he hears the word Brig.::

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
FCO: How long till we are out of the storms interior, Lieutenant?

CNS_Wells says:
::Begins getting triage team acclimated to the routine.  Once he is confident they are in the groove, he finishes with a current patient and prepares to leave::

Host XO_Ayidee says:
Adm: For what it's worth, if I was an impostor, I would have done my damage when I was controlling what was left of our shields, not when I was trying to see if I could find us a path out of this, Sir.  ::Steps back from Science station.::

ACTION:  Security arrives on the bridge and looks at the Captain.

FCO_LtJg_Zdunovski says:
aCO: I have no clue sir. The ion storm is messing up all screens sir.

CNS_Wells says:
Patient: There you go.  Have Sickbay change the dressing tomorrow.  It should be fine, in time.

Host Adm-Nokia says:
XO:  So you say, you might have done damage before this storm?  How are we to know?

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::trying her best to monitor communications, but the storm is having its effect on the system.::

Host XO_Ayidee says:
Adm: Because we didn't jump immediately into one of the Energy spikes.

CNS_Wells says:
<Patient>: CNS: Thank you, Commander, I mean Counselor, I mean Doctor.  ::Is confused due to medications.  ::Is assisted of the gurney by a medic::  CNS: Thank you.

Host Adm-Nokia says:
<Computer>  CO:  Your time is now elapsed.  No more access will be granted to you.

FCO_LtJg_Zdunovski says:
::Trying to get more information out of the system.::

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: turns and looks to the two security officers. :: Security : Please escort the Executive Officer back to his quarters immediately,
Adm: When we are out of this storm I would LIKE a word with you in my ready room, Sir.

Host Adm-Nokia says:
CO:  I believe I must have him placed in the brig Captain...
Security:  Take this person to the brig ::pointing to the XO::  I am now in charge of the Cherokee.

FCO_LtJg_Zdunovski says:
All: WHAT? Oops! Sorry for letting me go.

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
Security: Belay that order.  Admiral.  I do not have sufficient evidence to imprison the Exec simply on the fact that the Computer doesn't recognize his code.

Host Adm-Nokia says:
CO:  Captain, you can have a word with me here.  What is the problem?

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
Adm: Do you have the sufficient experience with computer repair and programming to prove that it is in fact, not a computer malfunction?

Host XO_Ayidee says:
Adm: A parting suggestion, get an answer on what the computer did before we get too far to fix it.  Sir.  You know where to find me.

Host Adm-Nokia says:
Security:  I am not going to stand here and have an order by me discussed.  You will take the Captain with you as well.

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
Adm: Admiral, you can sit down, and kindly be QUIET.  Security, when we are out of this storm you will escort both myself and the XO to the Brig.  Not one minute before.

CNS_Wells says:
::After some time:: MO_E'ben: I think you have it under control here.  I'll be in Sickbay should you need anything.

Host Adm-Nokia says:
::looks over the personnel left on the bridge::  ALL:  Is there anyone else that would like to join them?

FCO_LtJg_Zdunovski says:
Self: Uhm. ::Bites off his tongue.::

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::returns to monitor communications::

Host Adm-Nokia says:
Security:  Remove these two officers to the brig,... NOW!

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
Admiral : That’s it.

Host XO_Ayidee says:
All: Just do what we need to get out of here.

FCO_LtJg_Zdunovski says:
::Looks at OPS and whispers.:: OPS: Do you know what is going on?

ACTION:  The security team looks sheepish, but motions for the CO and XO to move ahead of them to the TL.

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
FCO:  Shhh, we'll get through this if we do our jobs.

FCO_LtJg_Zdunovski says:
::Whisper.:: OPS: Hope you are right. Will stick with you, while I am here.

Host XO_Ayidee says:
OPS: Exactly, get us out of this.  ::Heads for the Turbolift.::

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: walks directly into the Admirals personal space. :: Adm: You are wrong. Sir.  Dead Wrong.  I've tried to make you see reason, and you've failed.  When this is over.  I'm going to enjoy telling you so.

CNS_Wells says:
<MO_E'ben>: CNS: Very good, Doctor.  We should be alright here.  ::Watches CNS exit Holodeck One to makes way back to Sickbay::

Host Adm-Nokia says:
FCO:  If we were to stop the Cherokee here, would we incur anymore damage than we already have?

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: walks towards the TL and nods to the two security guards. ::

CNS_Wells says:
::Returns to Sickbay via Turbolift::

FCO_LtJg_Zdunovski says:
Adm: Ahum, ....::Pauzes:: ... I am not sure, if where are not that fast destroyed as while going through.  But someone should monitor the storm and the shields.

Host Adm-Nokia says:
FCO:  Very good Lieutenant.  Do your best to make it happen.

Host Adm-Nokia says:
OPS:  Any traffic on communications?

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::even though, she didn't like seeing her friends go through that, she still does her duty.. for now, something is starting to nudge her instinct that something isn't right about the Admiral.::

FCO_LtJg_Zdunovski says:
Adm: Admiral? Stop here? What is this? Sigh! :: Meanwhile shutting down the engines.::

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::looks at the Admiral.::  Admiral:  None, Sir.  The storm has done its job with distorting the signals.

Host Adm-Nokia says:
FCO:  Keep us in place if possible Lieutenant.  If you feel the storm is not passing us by, then move us out to the edge of the storm system.

Host XO_Ayidee says:
CO: Relax, this will work out.  The crew will figure this out.

FCO_LtJg_Zdunovski says:
Adm: I think it is wiser to move to the edge.

Host Adm-Nokia says:
FCO:  If you feel that is better then make it so.

FCO_LtJg_Zdunovski says:
::Nods and fires the engines up again, and lets the ship shift to the side. Slowly moving to the edge of the ion storm.:: Adm: Aye-aye sir. Ship is moving again.

CNS_Wells says:
::In Turbolift:: *CO*: Sir, I thought you might like a medical update report.  Best I can tell nearly a sixty injured, most non critical.
*CO*: Is everything okay up there.  How we doing with the storm?

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
*CNS*: Make your reports to the Admiral.  He's taken command of the vessel for the time being.  Both I and the XO have been confined to the brig due to circumstances beyond our control.

FCO_LtJg_Zdunovski says:
::Thinks it is wiser to survive closer to the edge then in the middle of a storm.::

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
XO: Tio.  I do think I'm going to have to hit that man when this is over.

CNS_Wells says:
*CO*: Oh good heavens, Mark, what did you do?

FCO_LtJg_Zdunovski says:
::Looks at OPS and pulls up his shoulders, meanwhile raising both eyebrows and pulling his mouth in a sad position.::

Host XO_Ayidee says:
CO: That wouldn't be good for any of us.

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
*CNS*: The Admiral felt that the XO was an imposter and pulled a Phaser on him.  I told him to stand down and got thrown into the hooscow with him for my troubles.

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::as she is still monitoring communications, she finds a quiet way to get into the computer to find out what is going on.  and luckily, she is able to enter without the Admiral being the wiser.::

Host Adm-Nokia says:
TO:  Try to clear up our sensors.  When the FCO says we are on the edge of the storm, it should be better.

CNS_Wells says:
::Can't be concerned with that right now, has injured to deal with::  *CO*: Sorry to hear it.  I'll get back to you, I'm rather involved at the moment.  ::exits TL::

FCO_LtJg_Zdunovski says:
::Looks around and sees the empty seats, which makes him sad.::

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
*CNS* Understood, Commander.  Do what you can.

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
XO: I  understand that.  But what in the seven rings of Sagitarius was that?

Host XO_Ayidee says:
CO: For right now, I'm more concerned about what kicked me out of access.  Computer was operating, then it asked for clearance?  Even if it accepted my access something is wrong there.

ACTION:  Security arrives at the brig and keeps the two together.

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
XO: Could it be possible that the computer suffered some damage during the storm which could effect the security protocols?

CNS_Wells says:
::Sends Text message to OPS. It says:  What's going on?  Is the Admiral okay?  I think I have the power to dethrone him but, I need to know.  Is he sane?  Text back::

Host Adm-Nokia says:
<Security>:  CO/XO:  I am sorry sirs.  We had to do what we were told to do by the admiral.

CNS_Wells says:
::Walks fast to Sickbay::

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
Security: You've got nothing to apologize for, son.  Don't you worry.

Host XO_Ayidee says:
Security: You would have had to apologize if you did something wrong.  Or if you didn't follow an order.  This was mistaken, not illegal.

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::responds back to the CNS:  Later. Working on getting us all out of here in one piece.::

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
XO: No Tio.  He  pulled a Phaser on my bridge, during a ion storm.  If that idiot would have lost his step and misfired, we'd have more trouble on our hands then we can even think on.

CNS_Wells says:
::Enters Sickbay and finds things well under control and is able to jump right in and treat patients.  Approaches a bio bed and studies the Patient's chart for a moment::

FCO_LtJg_Zdunovski says:
::Keeps looking into his system and tweaking it meanwhile.::

Host XO_Ayidee says:
CO: A separate issue.  Open to debate, but not related to the order itself.

CNS_Wells says:
::Gets message from OPS and reads it  to himself::  Self: I guess if Kyleigh ain't concerned, all must be okay::

Host Adm-Nokia says:
FCO:  Be sure to help tactical when you can.
Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
XO: He's in charge of this mission, but this is STILL my ship.  My crew.  Until I have irrefutable proof that its necessary.  I will not imprison a trusted member of my crew simply on a purely coincidental situation.

FCO_LtJg_Zdunovski says:
Adm: Yes sir, I will.

CNS_Wells says:
::Sees Janet::  MO_Monroe: How are things going?  ::Begins to run tissue regenerator over his patients back and left arm::

Host Adm-Nokia says:
::stepping down to the CO's chair, he takes a seat, brings up the controls on the arm's console and begins to enter data::

FCO_LtJg_Zdunovski says:
::Checks his system, to see if the edges moves closer.::

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::still keeping "busy" with monitoring communications, she replies with an update to the CNS:  The Admiral seems sane enough, the CO just argued with the wrong person and he is in charge as per Admiral Alexander's orders::

Host XO_Ayidee says:
CO: Trusted to you.  His reasoning was mistaken, which I'm certain any Review Boards will agree.

CNS_Wells says:
<MO_Monroe>:  CNS: I think we got it under control.  All of the surgical suites are occupied and it's starting to slowdown, I hope we get no more.  We've had four casualties, I'm sorry to say.

CNS_Wells says:
::Doesn't say nothing but returns to work::

Host XO_Ayidee says:
CO: Unfortunately, the Review Boards are completely out of range for our current situational status.

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
XO: Suggestions?

CNS_Wells says:
<MO_Monroe>:: Returns to her work as well::

Host XO_Ayidee says:
CO: Not many options at the moment, unless you still have access to a computer.  Even "Read Only" should let us know what happened to start this.

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: Looks at the two Security Guards. :: Security: The Admiral did order you to send us to the brig.  But he did not tell you we could not stop and grab a PADD, now did he?

Host Adm-Nokia says:
OPS:  Are the com badges on the CO and XO still functioning?  If so, disconnect them.  No one is to have any contact with them.

CNS_Wells says:
*ADM*: I thought you would like to be updated, Sir.  Sickbay report: 58 injured, 27 critical, 3 treated and discharged, 4 dead, Sir.

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
aCO:  Aye, Sir.  ::says that with a reluctant tone.::

Host Adm-Nokia says:
*CNS*:  I am sorry to hear that Counselor.  Please stay in charge down there.  I know the medical staff is doing their best.

CNS_Wells says:
*Adm*: Is everything okay, up there Sir?  I've learned of the Captain's situation and have some concerns.  Anything I can do for you, Sir?

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
XO: Check the console for any orders he's put into effect upon our leaving the bridge.  I've got a real nasty feeling that we might have just left a wolf in sheep’s clothing on our bridge.

Host Adm-Nokia says:
<Security> ::grins::  CO:  No he didn't, be right back.

Host Adm-Nokia says:
*CNS*:  No Counselor.  I had some concerns about an officer, and the Captain made the mistake of trying to countermand one of my orders.  He is now with that officer in the brig.

Host XO_Ayidee says:
CO: There isn't anything we can do about that either way, not without drawing attention to the "interpretation" of those Security's orders.  We need to get to the source of the problem.

CNS_Wells says:
*ADM*: Concerns about an officer, Sir.  Maybe I could dispel your concerns if I had more facts?

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
XO: Tio.  Think about this.  He used any excuse necessary to remove you from the bridge, knowing I would not follow through with that.  There is no way you can't say that is not suspicious behavior.  I want to find out what is going on.  Don't you?

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::she still uses her skills with monitoring communications and while she was there, she disconnected the com badges to the CO and XO, reluctantly.::

Host Adm-Nokia says:
*CNS*:  Not at this time counselor, when the ship is out of danger, you can come to the bridge and we could discuss it.  I need you where you are right now.

Host XO_Ayidee says:
CO: Focus on what you can control, otherwise you will go insane chasing dust.  The cause of his orders was the computer failure.  That, if we find the cause of, will help.

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
XO: Get on it, then.

CNS_Wells says:
*ADM*: Aye, Sir. I'll be in Sickbay should I be needed.  Wells out!

FCO_LtJg_Zdunovski says:
::Whispers to OPS.:: OPS: And any communications coming in? We are moving closer to the edge.

Host XO_Ayidee says:
CO: If the computer will let me in, I'll do just that.

CNS_Wells says:
::Doesn't like what is going on but has no knowledge of what went down.  Doesn't see reason to start a protest.  If there is something wrong with Nokia, it's best he keep out of the brig.  Dressing the wound to another patient while still thing. I'll stay here, its still true it is where I am, best needed. Knowing Kyleigh is on the bridge is comforting::

Host Adm-Nokia says:
<security> ::walking calmly into the brig, a PADD is hidden under his shirt, but he also has a food tray in his hand::  CO/XO:  Sirs, please stand back while we disengage the force field.

Host XO_Ayidee says:
::Steps back.::  CO: Did you check your access to the computer?

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: nods and steps back. :: Security: No problem, Ensign.  Won't get any trouble from us.

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
FCO:  So far, nothing yet, storm still has its grip.

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
XO: We’re cut off.  And if I'm a betting man. I'd say our combadges are shut off as well.

CNS_Wells says:
<Nurse Amarie>:: Enters Sickbay::  CNS: Sir, things are going well in triage, still not cleared but, it's going well.

FCO_LtJg_Zdunovski says:
::Nods to OPS as of understanding her words.::

Host Adm-Nokia says:
<security> ::grinning he sets down the tray, and slips the PADD under the napkins::  XO:  Thank you sir.  ::he turns and walks out of the cell, engaging the force field again::
<security>  CO/XO:  Enjoy your meals.

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: picks up a chopped vegetable and nods to the security officer. :: Security: Finest Cuisine to be had I am sure.

Host XO_Ayidee says:
Security: Thank you.

CNS_Wells says:
Amarie: Good news.  Can you assist this young man to the post op area.  Give him something for pain.

CNS_Wells says:
<Amarie>: CNS: Of course, Doctor. ::Assists patient::

CNS_Wells says:
Amarie: Thank you.  ::Wonders who else was in the brig with the CO::

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
XO: See if you can get a remote link up with the bridges information relay.

CNS_Wells says:
<MO_Monroe>: CNS: Sir, Amarie and I can handle it out here.  They could really use an extra set of hands in surgery.  You up for it, Gary?

Host XO_Ayidee says:
::Takes the PADD surreptitiously and activates a link to the Central Computer.::  CO: No good, Bridge is secure.  And we don't need Bridge.  We need answers on activity.

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::during her "monitoring" skills, she starts to notice some odd codes that she has never seen before.::

CNS_Wells says:
MO_Monroe: Hell, yeah Janet, lead me to it.  ::Is thrilled to gets some O.R. time::

Host aCO_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
XO: See if you can track down any activity the Admiral made before the storm.  I've got a bad feeling that he's behind your little security malfunction;.

CNS_Wells says:
::Heads off to scrub up::

Host XO_Ayidee says:
CO: No access, not to any of the open or low sec sections.  Everything seems to need a password.
