<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Resume Mission>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::In Ready Room, just finished reviewing daily reports and preparing for what's next.::

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::on Bridge, at OPS.::

CMO-McIntyre says:
*CO*:  If it is possible, before you start the drills, I would like to see the CTO to check on his progress.

CIV_Capt_Marek says:
::reading the last SF intelligence reports on a secondary console::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
*CMO*: Try to make it quick.  Drills have a schedule, even if you all don't know the exact time yet.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
::Going over everything on the tactical board... ship's tactical systems are all at 100%. Now it's almost time to make sure the crew is at 100%::

CMO-McIntyre says:
*CO*:  Yes Sir.
CTO:  Please report to sickbay.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
::grumble grumble:: *CMO*: On my way. ::Motions for a TO to relieve him::

CMO-McIntyre says:
::prepares the biobed for Q'ten's arrival::

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
::Heads off to the TL for sickbay::

CIV_Capt_Marek says:
::overhears the staff discussing the drills, and feels a bit nostalgic from his past a tactical officer::

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
*CO*: I’ll be back momentarily sir. Don't start without me.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
*CTO*: No promises.  Have to keep it interesting, yes?
::Finishes last few parameters to test, inputs the countdown and walks back onto the Bridge.::

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
*CO*: thy will be done sir.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
::Enters sickbay and tracks down the CMO::

CMO-McIntyre says:
Nurse Rachael: Show Q'ten in here when he arrives please.

CMO-McIntyre says:
<Nurse Rachael>:  CTO, this way please.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Bridge: Good morning.  Anything new to report?

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
::Follows the nurse::

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::looks up to see the CO::  CO:  Nothing new to report at this time, Sir.

CMO-McIntyre says:
CTO:  Q'ten, over here and lie down.  I will get this over as quickly aa possible.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
::Sighs heavily and lies down on the bio-bed.::

CMO-McIntyre says:
CTO:  If you are going to play, you have to pay!  ::chuckling::  ::begins the scans::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::In his office, in session::  Crewman Nutz: I think we had better stop there.  In our next session we will discuss your ailurophobia.  I have a few ideas on that we can talk about.

CIV_Capt_Marek says:
::goes thorugh the pages of the reports::: Self: So far same old story...

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
<Crewman Nutz> CNS: Thank you, Counselor It's just that I feel surrounded.  ::Gets up to leave::

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
CMO: What playing, we were serious.

CMO-McIntyre says:
CTO:  Well, you are healing nicely, BUT no more being serious in a physical direction.  You can go now!

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
Crewman Nutz: Well, it may be understandable but, next time.  ::Walks his patient to the door::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
<Crewman Nutz>: CNS: Until next time then.  ::Exits CNS office::

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
CMO: Don't know how I can be serious anymore. S'rel is back on the Starbase.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Sits in Command Seat.::  All: At least the crew has some time to catch up on projects and maintenance.

CMO-McIntyre says:
CTO:  Come by when you are off and bring chopwl!.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
::Gets up and straightens himself out:: CMO: I'll do that.

ACTION: A warning siren goes off and the ship automatically goes to Red Alert as all doors on deck 8 close and seal.

CMO-McIntyre says:
::oh great!  now what?::

CIV_Capt_Marek says:
CO: Captain, if I learned something during my career, is that aboard an SF ship, you always must expect the unexpected... ::raises an eyebrow::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Sits back down behind his desk to record some notes for the patient's chart::

CIV_Capt_Marek says:
CO: see, Captain? ::raises his eyebrow... again.::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
CIV: All in the line of duty.
All: Report.
CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
CMO: They've started the drill without me! qIvatlh!

CMO-McIntyre says:
*CO*:  Sickbay is ready Sir.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Hears the alarm go off::  Self: Now what?

CMO-McIntyre says:
::all, get ready for emergencies::

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
CMO: Until next time Doctor! ::Races off for the bridge

ACTION: As the CTO approaches the door to Sickbay, the door remains sealed.

CMO-McIntyre says:
CMO:  All doors and TL are closed.  ::yelling::

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
::Stops just short of the door that's not opening:: Self: What the...?

CMO-McIntyre says:
CTO:  Remember the drills?

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
*Bridge*: Lieutenant Q'ten to the bridge...Status report!

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
::she thought "Let the games begin" as a report comes across the computer screen.::  CO:  It appears a plasma conduit has ruptured on Deck 8, causing a leak of dangerous gas throughout the deck and the computer initiated the automatic sealing of the corridors.::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Exits office and heads for the Turbolift but, when he gets there, the Turbolift isn't working::  Self: Hmmm...

Host CO_Ayidee says:
OPS: Acknowledged, dispatch damage control teams.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
CMO: of course I remember the drills, that's why I'm supposed to be on the bridge.

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
CO:  Aye, Sir.  ::does as asked.::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
*CTO*: Reports of a plasma leak on deck 8, computer initiated a lockdown to protect the crew and aid the venting.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
<TO> CO: Sir, detecting unidentified beings moving through the corridors on deck 8.  Is this the drill?

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
*CO*: Sir, during an emergency I usually go to Sickbay to see if I can help.  Unfortunately, the Turbolifts are down.  Should I seek out an alternate route?

CIV_Capt_Marek says:
:: links his console with tactical::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
TO: Does it change anything if it is?  
*All*: We have two possibly conflicting reports, deck 8 flooded with dangerous gas and deck 8 having possible intruders.  We need to identify what is happening and react.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
CMO: Raise whatever shield you need to to protect the sickbay, but I have to get out there to assess the situation.

CMO-McIntyre says:
CTO:  You heard the Captain, we can’t get out and let's hope there are NO intruders.

CMO-McIntyre says:
Sickbay:  Prepare for intruders and have everyone have their gas masks ready.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
*CNS*: See if you can find a way through, but the chance of gas on deck 8 makes that an issue.  We need to figure out which is real and which is fake to move forward.

CIV_Capt_Marek says:
CO/TO: Sensors confirm both the presence of the gas leak and the 8 intruder life signs moving in the same area. We need to confirm which reading is the correct.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
Computer: Computer override main entrance to sickbay, authorization Q'ten jav jav Hut.

CMO-McIntyre says:
*CO*:  Sickbay is ready Sir, plus we have the CTO here as well.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
*CO*: Aye, Sir.  I'll get there some how.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
::Pulls his Phaser::

CIV_Capt_Marek says:
CO: I suggest to send a security team to assist the CTO on the double, just in case...

Host CO_Ayidee says:
<Computer> CTO: Warning, dangerous atmospheric conditions reported on deck 8.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
CMO: Give me  a breather, I'm going out there

Host CO_Ayidee says:
<Computer> CTO: Opening door may contaminate Sickbay.  Do you want to proceed?

CMO-McIntyre says:
::puts on her Phaser, hides her knife, and has the garrote ready::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Runs back to his office and replicates a gas mask::

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
Computer: raise atmospheric shields throughout sickbay and open the door.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
<Computer> CTO: Acknowledged.

ACTION: As the door opens it becomes quickly apparent the atmosphere is safe.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
::Dons his breather, just in case, and rushes into the outside corridor::

CMO-McIntyre says:
CTO:  Looks like no gas, however what about intruders?

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
*OPS*: Q'ten to Bridge, can you pinpoint the location of the intruders?

Host CO_Ayidee says:
<aFCO> Captain, Impulse engines are reporting an increase in output, 110% normal and rising.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Looks up the ship's blue prints on his computer console and then races out into the corridor::

OPS_Cmdr_Nash says:
*CTO*: What intruders?  I show no sign of intruders.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::He pops a grid off the wall and enters the maze of Jeffries tubes::

CIV_Capt_Marek says:
::check the sensors readings::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
<TO> OPS/ *CTO*: Intruder readings went off a few minutes ago unable to get a good lock on them.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::He crawls to an intersection and climbs the ladder up one deck::

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
Self: Great! *TO*: Understood, performing a visual sweep now.

CMO-McIntyre says:
::behind the CTO, watching his back::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
<aFCO> *Senior Staff*: Saucer Impulse engine power output continuing to rise without a reason.  We are at Warp, impulse should be at a minimum.  Cannot shut down from here.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
::Finds a Jeffries tube access and climbs down to deck 8::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Does some more crawling.  He kicks out the grid and pops out of the wall and into deck 8's corridor::

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
::Slides out of the Jeffries tube onto deck 8 and looks around::

CMO-McIntyre says:
::takes up a post, keeping an eye on the sickbay doors::

CIV_Capt_Marek says:
All: the sign life of the intruders still appear on the sensor, moving along deck 8. Still unable to identify them

CMO-McIntyre says:
CNS:: Over here.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
*CIV*: I'm on deck 8, you'll have to narrow it down for me.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
CTO: Hey, what are you doing here?

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
CNS: I'm doing my job. What are you doing here?

CIV_Capt_Marek says:
*CTO*: Working on that. ::taps rapidly on the screen::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
CTO: Thought I'd give the new Doc a hand.  Can I get into Sickbay?

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
CTO/CMO: I think we need to get to the saucer Impulse drive.

CMO-McIntyre says:
CTO:  I am going to stay here just in case.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
CMO: Keep your eyes open and if you see anyone not wearing a Starfleet uniform, blast them.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
CMO: I thought I'd come lend you a hand.

CMO-McIntyre says:
CTO:  ::grins:: So will I.

CMO-McIntyre says:
CNS:  Thanks, my medical staff are not as well versed in tactical ploys as I am.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
CNS: Come with me as far as you can still see the Doctor.

CIV_Capt_Marek says:
*CTO*: Sensors pick their signals randomly. They appear to be using some sensor diffusers. Also Saucer Impulse control on deck 8 is overloading.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
<TO> *CTO*: Internal Sensors are not working to track them down, but Security Teams are moving in to position to seal the deck until we can confirm it is safe to enter.  Teams are prepping in EVAC suits if the air is not clear.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
CMO: I'm not an expert in tactical.  I usually offer my services to Sickbay in case of an emergency.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
CNS/CMO: From the reports I'm getting if there are intruders they are messing with the Saucer Impulse drive, so that's where I'm heading.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
CTO: I'd offer to go with you but, I might just get in your way.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
*CO*: Understood sir. I'm heading to the Saucer Impulse drive to try and flush them out.
CMO-McIntyre says:
CTO:  I will be in sickbay if the CNS will keep watch out here.

CMO-McIntyre says:
CNS:  Is that agreeable to you?

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
CMO: Sure, why not.  Wait.  Watch out for what?

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
CMO: Very well. If you run into any of the tactical teams send them my way.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
CNS: Intruders obviously!

CMO-McIntyre says:
CTO:  You got it!

CMO-McIntyre says:
CNS:  Supposedly there are intruders on our deck.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
CMO: Intruders?  I guess I missed that while crawling through the ship.  I thought we just had gas.

CMO-McIntyre says:
::walks to the doors of sickbay::  ALL:  Arm yourselves for possible intruders.  Be careful, the Captain is sending teams in, don't shoot unless you are sure they are not ours.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Stands watch in Sickbay's doorway::

CMO-McIntyre says:
ALL:  Have Anesthizine gas ready in case they make it I here.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
CNS: here's the situation as near as I can tell. Ships sensors are telling the bridge that there is gas on deck 8. Tactical sensors also reported intruders on deck 8 but was unable to identify them.

CMO-McIntyre says:
::pulls out her watch stem making sure the garrote slides out easily::

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
CNS: On top of all that the Saucers Impulse drive is being powered up for some reason. So I am going to the Impulse drive section to determine if there are intruders there, and what they are doing.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
CTO: Understood.  Call me if you need me.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
CNS: Stand watch here and if you see anyone that you know is not our people, let them have it. Any tactical teams send my way.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
CNS: I'll keep you updated.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
CTO: Thanks.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
::Starts off towards the Saucer Impulse section::

CMO-McIntyre says:
::hearing what the CTO just said to the CNS, she thinks no way in hell::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
<TO2> *CTO*: Sir, teams are entering deck 8.  Several have reported small containers near sensor ports, the containers are leaking just enough gas to make the sensor think there is the major leak reported.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
*TO2*: So somebody wanted this deck cleared out for some reason.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Patrolling Deck 8::

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
::keeping a sharp eye out as he makes his way to the Impulse control::

ACTION: Upon arriving at the Impulse Control Center, the Computer announces "Impulse Control Center Door Sealed from the inside for the Drill."

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
::Trying to think of what else is on deck 8 that may be a target::

CIV_Capt_Marek says:
::thinks:: Very well planned drill or a worrying real situation.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
::Computer cores and Saucer impulse engines::
