SO_Love says:
::With the ship shaking and the captains orders in her head, leaves the computer lab, the computer running the samples, and dashes to the bridge.::
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
::watches the view screen as they clear the anomaly and releases his grip:: CO: We've cleared the anomaly Captain.
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
::Stands::  ALL:  Damage Report!
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
::checks over systems at the helm:: CO: Warp drive inoperative.
TO_Ens_Mahk`tar says:
::goes to yellow alert:: CO: Structural integrity field is at 34%, sir.
TO_Ens_Mahk`tar says:
CO: Weapons and shields are also temporarily offline.
SO_Love says:
::Taps the wall of the turbolift as she feels its sluggish response.::
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
CO: Sir all damage reports are still coming from engineering sir.  When I get a full report you will get it.
 
ACTION: The Claymore emerges from the rift into open space, but the stars are all wrong.

SO_Love says:
::As the doors open, she pauses as a whiff of smoke catches her off guard and she coughs.::
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
FCO:  Do we still have thrusters and or impulse?  TO:  Get on those shields and Weapons.  I need those ASAP.
TO_Ens_Mahk`tar says:
CO: Aye, sir.
SO_Love says:
::Waving her hand to find clean air, she makes her way in the dim lighting to her station.::
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*CEO*  Bridge to Engineering.  I need all the power you can give me.  Work on the Warp engines and the Structural Integrity.
TO_Ens_Mahk`tar says:
CEO: How long until tactical systems are back online?
 
ACTION: The Nacandarian tunneller ship has veered off in another direction seemingly ignoring Claymore.

 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
ALL:  Where is Rusa?
SO_Love says:
::Logging on, pulls up the sensor logs.::
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
::glances at the view screen then at his navigational charts:: CO: Impulse and thrusters are fine sir, but the charts are not recognizing this region of space, the stars are all wrong so to speak.
 Rusa says:
::emerges from underneath a secondary science console::
 Rusa says:
CO: I am here, Captain.
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
CO: I have your engineering report and it is bad.
SO_Love says:
::Jumps as a voice near by catches her off guard.::
TO_Ens_Mahk`tar says:
::takes all reserve power he can and throws it into shields:: CO: The tunneller ship is moving off, sir.
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
SO:  What do you have on sensors?
SO_Love says:
::Looks over at the stranger, connecting the captains call with the voice.  Returns to her console.::
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
CO: Warp is offline, emergency power is at 20%, SIF is 34%, weapons and shields down but I can have them back in 15 minutes, and the only good news is the thrusters and Impulse are ok and working.
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
CO: We still have hull breaches from the Skree but the emergency force fields are still holding but I cant guarantee for how long.
SO_Love says:
CO:  Ummm... not good.  ::Waves her hand as if to see better.::  The sensors are damaged.  We won't be able to trust this data.  ::Looks over, not sure what to do.::  The pallets will need to be worked on.
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
Ens. Spanner: I need power son and I need those weapons and shields soon son.
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
SO:  Great.  Well do what you can to fix them to get us some more reliable data.  CEO:  Understood.  Get to work on the repairs.
SO_Love says:
CO:  However... it looks like we have come out near a G type star... if that helps. ::Turns back around to do some rerouting.::
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
Rusa:  Well Rusa.  What now?  Where do we need to take you people.
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
TO: Just as soon as I can get the weapons and shields online you will have all I can give you since we only have 20% power available for now.
 Rusa says:
::runs over to the SO:: SO: A star?  Let me see!
TO_Ens_Mahk`tar says:
CEO: Acknowledged.
SO_Love says:
::Steps out of the way to avoid being knocked over.::  Rusa:  Ummm... sure.
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
::glances over at Love and shakes head about Rusa and winks at her::
TO_Ens_Mahk`tar says:
CEO: Would you like some assistance with the weapons repairs?
SO_Love says:
Rusa:  I need to get underneath the console to do some hardware rerouting.  ::Hopes he understands what she is saying.::
 Rusa says:
SO: Whatever you need to do.  Which screen do I look at?
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
TO: Thanks for offering, but this time I don't think so.
TO_Ens_Mahk`tar says:
CEO: Let me know if anything changes.
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
::Walks over to Rusa::  Rusa:  What is it?
SO_Love says:
::Reaches over and hits a few commands to reroute it to a nearby screen::  Rusa:  Try that one.
 Rusa says:
::peers at the screen::  How many planets?
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
TO: Hold on a second, you can help me with the reconfiguration of the torpedo launchers.
SO_Love says:
::Stops taking the panel off to look over at the screen.::  Rusa:  Ummm... Looks like 5 planets, one a class M.
TO_Ens_Mahk`tar says:
CEO: Acknowledged.
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
Ens. Spanner: Son any word on how much time before I have the weapons and shields back?
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
::Waits on Rusa to answer::
 Rusa says:
::spins around to face the CO, clearly excited::
SO_Love says:
::Points to the class M.::
SO_Love says:
::Shakes her head at the rather hyper man.::
 Rusa says:
CO:  That's where we need to go!  Your Glory, you have done it!
SO_Love says:
::Returns to taking off the panel.::
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
Rusa: Rusa...::raises his eyebrows::  What is it?
Ens Spanner says:
 *CEO*: Ma'am, I should have them up in 5 more minutes.  However I can't guarantee how strong the shields will be and how much power the phasers will have.
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
Rusa:  Where?
SO_Love says:
::Putting it aside, she grabs a kit and finds her way into the circuitry.::
TO_Ens_Mahk`tar says:
::pulls up damage report and schematics of the torpedo launcher to begin study::
 Rusa says:
CO:  That system!  That planet!  ::points to the class M planet on the screen::
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
::glances at the screen and hopes this is Rusa's last stop::
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
::looks at the screen and turns around to the FCO::  FCO:  Set a course for the M Class planet in this system.
SO_Love says:
::Begins to pull out various crystals and slip them into different ports.::
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
CO: Aye sir, full impulse.  ::sets the course and engages::
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
::texts the FCO::  FCO: I heard what you said and I completely agree with you.
SO_Love says:
::Tosses a few burned out pieces.::
 Rusa says:
CO: Faster!  We must go faster!
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
CO: ETA 2 hours give or take warp drive coming back online.  ::glances at Rusa and shakes his head with annoyance::
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
FCO:  ETA Mr. Theron.
TO_Ens_Mahk`tar says:
::scanning the area best as he can with the damaged sensors::
SO_Love says:
::Mutters under her breath::  Faster, faster... I think that is part of our problem already.  ::Inhales sharply as she hits a broken circuit over heated.::
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
Rusa: Sir, if I push the impulse any more I will burn out the impulse drive.  This ship is in a delicate situation.
TO_Ens_Mahk`tar says:
CO: The other ship is still moving off, sir.

ACTION: The rift closes behind Claymore.

CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
CO: Sir, I don't like this, the rift just closed behind us.
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
TO:  Understood.  CEO:  No...::turns to look at the screen::  Me either.
 Rusa says:
::ignores the CEO and gives the CO a pleading look::
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
::checks the library computer and finds that they are in Nacadarian space.
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
SO:  Can you tell me at least what space we are in?
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
CO: Sir, we are not in our universe sir.
SO_Love says:
::Peeks out::  CO:  Ummm... maybe. ::Pulls herself out and activates the computer library::
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
CO: If I read this right,........
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
::turns to look at the CEO::
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
::circuit blows out::
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
ALL: Basted Circuits!!!!!
SO_Love says:
::Inputs the current star formations into the databank and waits to see what the computer coughs up.::
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
::watches his controls as they sluggishly move towards the M class planet::
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
::muttering under her breath:: Self:  Basted relays now I have now way of scanning or accessing the library computer banks.
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
Ens. Spanner: Son!! Give me some good news please.
 
ACTION: Some junior engineers below decks report that warp drive is online, but only temporarily and at a max of warp 2.5.

SO_Love says:
Ummm... CO:  According to this... we are in Nacandarian space.  Which is not... ::Looks at him::  Where I believe we want to be.  And this map... it isn't fully complete.  Looks like it was mapped by the USS Nighthawk, appears they were here recently.
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
::sees his power board light up a little bit and checks with the engine report:: CEO: Confirm that we have warp drive back Lieutenant?
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
SO:  Well, we will have to make due.  Once you get sensors working...maybe we can add to that information.
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
::receiving progress reports::
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
FCO:  Take us to Warp 1 and continue on course.
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
CO: I have some news for the warp drive.  It is online but only temporarily and only a maximum of 2.5
SO_Love says:
::Nods::  CO:  I think I have something patched together that will work.  ::Goes back under the panel and finishes the last rewiring.  Under her breath...::  Add engineering to my resume please.
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
::nods without looking back:: CO: Aye sir, increasing to warp 1.  ::raises the bar and jumps::
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
FCO:  ETA?
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
CO: 34 minutes present speed.
SO_Love says:
::With a sigh stands up and puts the panel back on.::
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
FCO:  I am concerned that if we increase to warp 2.5, we will run the engines.  It is only at a temporary status.  FCO:  What do you suggest?
SO_Love says:
::With the computers assistance, does some software rerouting.::
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
CO: Sir, I might be able to tie in the impulse to the warp drive but I am not sure if it would help.
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
::turns in his chair:: CO: I don’t want to get trapped here with a blown out drive, sir, if Rusa and his people can wait 30 minutes or until we can get a more reliable answer from the engine room, I suggest we stay at warp 1.
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
CO: We may burn out the impulse drive but it might just get us there quicker.
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
FCO:  Good.  That was my feeling as well.  ::smile::  CEO:  Get on it.  We may need it to get home.
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
TO:  How are repairs coming?
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
CO: I have to get to engineering to re work the relays and such.
SO_Love says:
::Activates the sensors.  Concentrating, does a bit of fiddling to clear it.::  Self: Gotch ya.
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
CEO:  Dismissed.
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
::does a calculation:: CO: Sir if I may?
TO_Ens_Mahk`tar says:
::goes back to studying torpedo schematics:: CO: The CEO reports weapons and shields are still down, I am going over the reports to see if i can be of any assistance, sir.
 Rusa says:
::shaking with anticipation as Claymore draws near to its destination::
 Rusa says:
CO: I must go prepare your subjects for departure!
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
::looks shocked at her husband with his casual dismissed remark but offers no protest and leaves for her domain::
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
CTO:  Understood.  Rusa:  Go ahead.  FCO:  Go ahead and increase speed to warp two.
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
CO: Aye, sir.  ::increases:: CO: 3 Minutes present speed.
 Rusa says:
::departs the bridge quickly::
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*CEO*: Randolph to Randolph.  Do we have transporters?
SO_Love says:
CO:  OK... I got something more for you.  We still have 5 planets, one class M.  However, they are rather small... not much more then chunks of rock.  On the class M planet, I am picking up life signs...
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
::races into engineering and promptly falls over several pieces of ODN conduit pieces::
SO_Love says:
::Runs the bio signatures through the database.::  CO:  Which appear to be Camarian.
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
SO:  Good work.  Are they Camaran?
SO_Love says:
::Smiles::  Yeppers.
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
SO:  That’s where they are.
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
*CO*: Sir the transporters are operational.
SO_Love says:
CO:  Umm... yes sir.
 
ACTION: The CEO receives a laceration on her forehead from the fall.

 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*CEO*: Thank you Lt. Good work, Randolph out.
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
::hears the CO and SO talking:: CO: And we are almost there as well sir.
 
ACTION: The target system comes into visual range.

SO_Love says:
::Looks to the screen, down to the FCO and back to her sensors.::
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
::picks herself up and runs to where Ens. Spanner is holding her bleeding head::  Ens. Spanner: Son I need some good news.........Ouch that smarts...
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
FCO:  As soon as we arrive.  Take us into orbit.  We will begin to beam down the Camarians.
TO_Ens_Mahk`tar says:
::places planet on screen:: CO: On screen, sir.
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
::prepares for orbit:: CO: Gladly sir.
Ens Spanner says:
CEO: Ma'am you are hurt again, you need to see the doctor again.
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
Ens. Spanner: Forget about it. It is just a cut.  Now lets get back to work.
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
::drops the Claymore from warp and goes to approach speeds::
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
*CO*: Sir SIF is up to 50% and phasers are operational at 46% power.
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
TO:  Thank you Ensign.
TO_Ens_Mahk`tar says:
CO: Sir, Phasers are operational, at 46% power.
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*CEO*: Great work Ms. Randolph.
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
ALL: Preparing for orbit of the planet.
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
FCO:  You are in command.  I am going down to the transporter room to see the Camarians off.
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
::stands up and walks to the command chair:: CO: Very good, sir.
SO_Love says:
::As they come closer, she has the short range sensors take over.::  CO:  The planet is highly populated.  I am not reading any advanced technology... no signature of advanced power resources and... no sigh of ships.  Which would fit the other two.
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
*CO*: Acknowledged sir.  Working on the warp engines now.  I need to get us out.................::wipes more blood off her face::.... of this universe.
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
::walks over to the TL and stops::  SO:  Understood.  ::enters the TL::  CEO:  Understood Lt.  Are you alright?
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
::waits for the CO to leave than approaches the SO whispers:: SO: I know in the back of your mind you are working on a way to get us back home right?  ::grins::
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
Ens. Spanner: Hand me the coil spanner, these coils are misaligned again.
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
*CO*: Yes, I am ok just a deep laceration on the head that is all but I am continuing with the repairs.
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*CEO*: If you need to go to Sickbay, do it and let Spanner take over.
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
::continues working on the coils::
SO_Love says:
::Looks at him with a grin.::  FCO:  Back?  You want to go back?  I was actually contemplating staying awhile and doing some research.
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
::exits the TL and walks down the corridor to the Transporter Room and enters::
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
*CO*: Thank you sir but I am ok.
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
::opens eyes wide and places hand on hips:: SO: Yeah you would be contemplating that wouldn’t you Ensign 'Curious'?

ACTION: Camarians begin to line the corridors to the transporter rooms and cargo bays waiting to be beamed down.

SO_Love says:
::Chuckles  mischievously::  FCO:  Yea... and think how easy it would be for me to have my errr... way.
 
ACTION: Claymore enters standard orbit and all transporters signal ready.

CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
::begins to get a little light headed but continues her work forcing her mind to ignore it::
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
*CO*: We're ready Captain.  TO: Drop the shields, Ensign.
 Rusa says:
::sees the CO enter as he guides followers onto the platform::
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
Ens. Spanner: Get over to the fusion reactors and we will bring them back online one at a time manually.  Wait for my go.
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
::looks over at the transporter chief::  Chief:  Begin transporting the Camarians down and signal to all other transporter rooms to do the same.
SO_Love says:
::Frowns as she thinks on something::  FCO:  I have a thought.  Doesn't this planet fall under the Prime Directive criteria?  And if it does, aren't we breaking it by dropping off all these people?
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
::punches the restart commands for fusion reactor one::
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
Ens. Spanner: Bring online reactor 1 now.
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
::turns back to SO and thinks:: SO: I will put it to you this way Chey, I am not Captain yet, and neither are you.  Lets let the brass worry about it, right now I am just glad to get them back home.
SO_Love says:
::A touch of worry still in her eyes, she nods.::  FCO:  Shall we not even bring it up then?

ACTION: The Camarains beam down and join their brethren on the planet below.  The last group is finally ready and Rusa is among them.

FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
::makes the motion to zip his lips:: SO: Not this time dear, some day, but not today.  ::walks back towards the command chair::
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
::reactor 1 powers up quickly and one by one the rest do the same::
 Rusa says:
CO: We are forever grateful for your guidance, your glory.
SO_Love says:
::With a nod, wondering how it would not come to light, she gathers as much data as she can.::
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
Rusa:  You are welcome.  ::walks over to Rusa::  I wish you long life and I convey my blessing to you all in your new home.
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
Ens. Woodward: You have the ODN conduits and relays online or just about to bring them online????
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
::approaches the chair and looks up, noticing for the first time the very large Klingon at tactical:: TO: Enjoying your first day on the bridge Ensign . . . ?  ::motions with his hand for his name::
TO_Ens_Mahk`tar says:
FCO:  Mahk`tar, sir, and yes I am enjoying it thoroughly.
 Rusa says:
::nods to the CO solemnly and signals ready for transport::
Ens Woodward says:
CEO: Ma'am, I am about to bring them back to readiness.  Keep your fingers crossed ma'am.
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
Chief:  Chief Stark...engergize.
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
TO: Good . . :: sits down and with a mischievous smile adds:: TO: I can tell you its usually a lot more fun.  ::snickers and glances at the SO::

ACTION: The last group of Camarians beams down.

SO_Love says:
::Rolls her eyes at the FCO::
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
::Turns and heads to the bridge after the Camarians are gone.  *FCO*  Randolph to Bridge.
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
*CO*: Go ahead, sir.
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
::walks down the corridor to the TL and enters giving his destination as the bridge::  *FCO*  Lay in a course for the anomaly.  Let’s see if we can get home.
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
*CO*: With pleasure sir.  ::stands and smiles again:: ALL: You heard the order, lets get back home.
SO_Love says:
::Looks at the her friend.::  FCO:  Do I tell him now or later that the anomaly closed?
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
::mouths to the SO:: SO: L-a-t-e-r.
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
::exits the TL and walks down to his chair::
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
*CO*: Remember sir that the rift closed behind us sir.
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
::takes the conn:: CO: On our way at warp 3 sir.  ::engages::
SO_Love says:
::Nods her head and turns back to her station.  Wondering how long later should be.::
 CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*CEO*  I remember but it might open back up once we arrive.  If not, we have to find another way.
FCO_LtCmdr_Theron says:
::nods thinking they will . . . they always do::
CEO_LtJg_Randolph says:
*CO* Understood sir still working on the warp core trying to get more from the lady.
SO_Love says:
::Looks over at Theron, shrugging... guessing later was not so later now.::
