CTO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
::on the bridge at tactical, monitoring the shields, but so far the deflector is doing its job::
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::turns, for some reason with a measure of surprise, as another disaster erupts from nothing while he's on the Bridge::
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
ALL: Report!
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
::on the bridge focusing on his console::
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
:: Hits the comm button in annoyance::  *CEO*:  Chief, I am to report to you if there are any problems with the sensors.  Before I alter them to what they should be, thought I would let you know.
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
<CWO_Amica>  *CMO*:  Right away.  ::Drops his PADD on the nurses' station desk and moves on::
CTO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
XO: Remnants of a stellar debris field, commander. Shields and navigational deflector are optimal. No damage to report.
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::sitting in her chair and before she could speak Davis speaks up.  She turns to look at the noise::
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
:: Turns around::  XO:  we came out in spatial debris... give me a sec and let me see if I can figure out what it is.
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
::Opens up a file to begin scheduling physicals, and contemplates a moment, tapping his chin::
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
<CWO_Amica>  ::Enters the Sickbay office and nods to Welland::
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::stands up amidst the little rumbles and circles back towards the aft part of the Bridge, not standing over Senn's shoulder, but being more accessible::
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
*CSO*:  Understood, I have a baseline of all ship's systems, we can run a diagnostic against current status to see what disparity has occurred during the mission
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
::Nods in return::  Amica:  Have a seat; this won't take but a minute.  ::Sets his PADD aside::
CAG_Ens_Williams says:
::watches as the last of the fighters come into the holographic flight bay... nods, then motions to the squad gathering around him:: Squad: Alpha squad. We're on the ball. ::starts into the holodeck as fighters begin to power down::
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
::sighs softly:: 
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
:: turning around, has the computer run through an analysis.::  XO:  It looks like we are looking at the last planet left in this system.
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
<CWO_Amica>  ::Sits down, leaning forward in his chair::  CMO:  What have we got?
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
CSO: How long ago did this happen Lieutenant?
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::nods until the words process after he has a chance to consider them::  
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
::puts down her PADD that she was reading about the Ipecce:: 
CAG_Ens_Williams says:
::moves to his fighter, and glances around at the others:: Squad: Standard combat operations. The objective is really quite simple. Kill, and do not get killed, or you will be supervising the flight technicians.
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
Amica:  Basically, the marine squad will be playing the parts of the injured.  I've already set up the designated sickbay instrumentation to only accept the simulation signals from their combadges.
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
*OPS*:  Mr. Fong, I am currently running Level 2 diagnostics and will continually have them run during the mission; per Captain's orders.  
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
:: taps a few keys and turns to look at one of her screens.::  XO:  It would appear that subspace disruptions caused some heavy damage in this system...  two of the planets no longer exist.   This last one... somewhere around 8 weeks ago, give or take a few days.  Doing an orbital run now...
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
<CWO_Amica>  CMO:  I see.  Ward one?
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
::clears the various collision warnings off the main viewer, and displays an overview of the system.:|
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::turns back to the Captain, the gravity of the situation--so to speak--just not weighing on him::
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
:: Reaches up and taps another screen, then pulling up previous data matches it with the current..::  *CEO*:  It is disparity that does not fit what I like...
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Looks up at the main viewer standing and walks a little closer::
CAG_Ens_Williams says:
::gets the nods from his staff:: Computer: Computer, reset simulation. Set to initiate upon launch.
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
*CEO* Understood.  What systems will you be starting on?
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
XO:  Got it... possible theory is that the one of the planets was pushed out of its orbit and collided with the other.
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
Amica:  Yes.  Ward two will be available for general emergencies, should the occasion arise.  The simulation can be immediately cancelled if need be, but good to have the space available.
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
<CWO_Amica>  CMO:  Okay, then.  Anything else we need to know?
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
*OPS*:  m/ARC, Impulse and sensors
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
Amica:  Nope, just standard operating procedure.  Everyone knows what they're doing.  ::Nods and smiles once::  Nevertheless, be wary...never know what the simulations have up their metaphorical sleeves.
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::crosses arms::  CSO: You said the cause of this was some sort of disruption in space...subspace?
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
::can start to feel the emotions on the Ipecce colony:: CO: Captain, I am feeling the Ipecce are in mostly good spirits and ready to receive us. 
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
*CEO* We are dealing with a...target rich environment at the moment, may I request a hold on the sensors?
CTO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
::analyses the larger samples of stellar debris in the system as the info rolls in from the sensors::
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
<CWO_Amica>  ::Smiles wryly::  CMO:  I'll be sure to be checking them all for unknown viruses or parasites.
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
*CSO*:  <smiles> Aye!  I'll try only to deliver the nominal
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
XO:  Looks like it... :: doesn't look up as she pulls up previous data of the system.::
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
aFCO: Push through past the asteroid belt.  Slow and steady at 1/2 impulse let's not over tax the deflector systems.
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
Amica:  Good show.  Brief everyone, and I'll be out when it's time for things to start.  ::Nods once, sharply, and slides his PADD back over::
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
CTO: Take us to yellow alert Commander.  ::Turning around slightly to look over at Kizlev::
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
CSO: From your data, can you deduce whether or not this is a natural occurrence?
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
:: under her breath::  *CEO*:  Nominal humph...
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
::slowly shifts auxiliary power to the deflector array::
CAG_Ens_Williams says:
::gets the acknowledgement from the computer, then climbs into his fighter, watching as his other pilots do same::
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
CNS: Noted Counselor.
CTO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CO: Aye, sir. All stations, Yellow Alert.
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
XO:  Working the easy end first... seeing what we have from the past.
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
<CWO_Amica>  CMO:  Will do, Sir.  ::Stands up and walks over to the doors, then sees the yellow alert blinking::  ...Hm.  Is this part of the drill?
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
Amica:  Not to my knowledge.  ::Knits his brow a bit::  I'll check up and let you know what's going on; in the meantime, proceed with the briefing.
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
*OPS*:  level 2 only runs in half the time, once it runs, I'll have two diagnostics to compare, I'd rather have that knowledge that they are up to snuff, before we actually need to target something in a rich environment, agreed?
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
<aFCO_Winters> CO: Aye ma'am 1/2 impulse.
CAG_Ens_Williams says:
<FP_Ltjg_Cerna> *CAG*: Flight control to wing commander. We've got the standby signal from the bridge, boss.
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::wanders away from Science slightly::  CO: I don't recall this sort of disruption in the orders.
CTO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
::runs a tactical analysis on the 15 asteroids on course for Ipecce IV that have "planet-killing" potential::
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
XO:  The system originally had 12 planets... they are now down to ten... Ummm... Ipecce IV is an M class world settled by humans about a year ago...
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
*OPS*: Welland to bridge.  Can I get a status update on the Yellow Alert?
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<CMC_MCPO_Matthews>  ::arrives on the Bridge, having rushed up after Yellow Alert started::
CAG_Ens_Williams says:
::powers up his holographic fighter, pausing only long enough to respond to Cerna:: *FP*: Call beta squad to standby. When the simulation is complete, we'll join you.
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
*CEO* Understood.  I was just concerned regarding the number of tracks that the system has to track at this moment.
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
*CSO*:  It’s a word I've learned to use where the Claymore is involved.  
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
CSO: Can you extrapolate the risk to Ipecce IV from the data?
CAG_Ens_Williams says:
<FP_Ltjg_Cerna> ::nods, sending the signal to the secondary flight squad, and notifying tactical of fighters on standby::
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
XO:  Darn...  Computer puts it as damage caused by the sub-space disruptions from the Kazner system.  The Overton destroyed the cause of the disruptions... system activity is volatile.  Solar flares every few minutes.  Ouch...
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
*OPS*:  I'm sensitive to the needs, once I get it out of the way...I can move on to other non-critical systems
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
:: Looks up::  XO:  Does fifteen planet killing asteroids roaming the system count?
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
*CMO* We dropped from warp into an asteroid field Commander.
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
*OPS*:  All right.  ::Stands and starts out around his desk::  I'll let you get down to business, then.  I'm sure you'll let me know if we're needed.  Welland out.
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
*CO*:  Captain, ship's diagnostics are currently running as per orders
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Turns around and moves closer to Davis slightly::  XO: Aye, Commander it wasn't in the orders.  But, as Senn just pointed out we have dealt with this already and are still feeling effects as you can see.
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
*CEO* Once we have cleared this asteroid field I think the situation should be lessened.
CAG_Ens_Williams says:
::finishes the power up sequence:: *Squad*: Form up on me. We launch in 5 seconds and counting. Launch prep, go. Preignition, go. Launch status is green. ::pauses briefly:: Launch. ::jabs at the controls of his fighter, lifting it off the holographic deck::
CTO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CSO: Already ahead of you on those. Short range sensors have those 15 targets on trajectory lock. They are all well-spread out, though all most likely to make impact with the planet.
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::nods::  CO: I suggest we advise the planet of the conditions. A buoy might be in order as well if this is going to persist.
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
:: turns toward the captain:: CO: Particle density in this system is off the charts... as we continue, it will be like plowing through snow... with our deflectors.
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
::Drops his PADD into his pocket and continues out into the main ward, where Amica is wrapping up the briefing the bulk of the medical department::
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
CTO:  And anything else.  Maybe if we stir the pot we could create another planet.
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
::overhearing the XO he sends a general greeting to the planet of Ipecce IV::
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Nods::  XO: Have Lieutenant Senn configure two communications buoys and a sensor buoy towards the planet.
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
<CWO_Amica>  All:   That said... ::Glances to Welland:: ...be prepared for any and everything, and remember to be thorough.  ::Looks to Welland again::  You have anything, M.D.?
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
XO: Hopefully that will clear up communications.
CAG_Ens_Williams says:
::were it the real Claymore, the mass amount of fighters leaving its flight deck would almost give the appearance of a missile launch... the fighters group up, and are immediately underway::
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::nods again::  CO: And alert any incoming ships.
CTO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CO: Captain, most of the 15 asteroids are manageable with ship's weapons and fighter support. However, there are two of which that are far too dense for conventional armament.
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::turns back to Senn and steps closer again::  CSO: Did you get that?
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Walks back over to her chair, still standing, watching the main viewer::
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<CMC_MCPO_Matthews>  ::Remains in the aft section of the Bridge, still getting a feel for what's going on::
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
::Turns to address the assembled staff in ward one::  All:  Just that the Yellow Alert is not part of the exercises, today.  We have apparently hit an asteroid field.  I'm not sure what the implications are, but, for now, I must assume the drill is on hold.  Anything we see will be the real deal unless otherwise notified.
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
XO:  Yea...  I also have some more info for you.
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
CSO: Noted Lieutenant but we are just going to have to make our way through it at best speeds.
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
CSO: Go ahead.
CAG_Ens_Williams says:
::almost immediately, they are engaged by enemy vessels of various makes and models... Williams pulls up, and his squad spreads out to minimize damage, engaging in the first of several multivector assault patterns::
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
CTO: Suggestions Commander other than going around them at all costs.
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
:: glances down and then back up.::  XO:  Sensors show colony life signs at 1523 which matches their last report.  I am picking up also severe storms which makes further scans a bit challenging.
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Nods to Davis' last suggestion in agreement::
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::looks closer at the console::
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::without expression::  CSO: Keep trying. Let's see if we can get some information directly from them as well.
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
::Glances to the master situation board a moment, then squares himself professionally and addresses the staff authoritatively::  All:  Beta and Gamma on hot standby, Alpha shift on duty.  I am on call; everything goes through me.  Dismissed.
CTO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CO: I will consult with engineering, sir. If we cannot increase power to weapons sufficiently, we'll have a big problem on our hands.
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
:: nods as she turns back around.::
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
OPS: Have you received any acknowledgment to your comm?
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
*CEO*:  Chief, I need two class VI probes.
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
CO: Negative ma'am.
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
CTO: Understood.  Get with Hull and see what you two can come up with.
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
*CSO*:  Aye, they are in the process of loading into the torpedo tubes
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
OPS: Keep trying Ensign.
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
*CEO*:  And one class IV. please.
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
::tries the general greeting hail a second time::
CAG_Ens_Williams says:
::Williams spins his fighter into a 360 spin, rolling it over so he flies upside down... he comes up over top of one of the enemy vessels, another of his fighters moving underneath... the holographic ship is sandwiched between twin barrages of phaser and torpedo fire::
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
*CSO/OPS*:  Class 4 and Class 6 probes ready for launch
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
CO: Think one of the fighters could break through this faster than Claymore?
CTO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
*CEO*: Kizlev to engineering, I am relaying tactical sensor data regarding two dense stellar objects approaching the planet Ipecce IV that I am certain will be too much for weapons. Is there a solution other than weapons we can attempt?
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
<CWO_Amica>  ::Looks to Welland a moment as the medical staff disperses to their posts...waits for everyone to be about their business before approaching Marcus at the master situations board::  CMO:  Rather businesslike, these days?  ::Smiles a bit::  All those holodeck simulations blowing up ships hitting home?
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
*CEO*:  Launch...
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
*CSO*:  Launching...
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
:: As the probes are launched, she activates another screen and watches the data flowing across it.  She then ties it into one of many programs..::
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
XO: Contact Ensign Williams and have him give an analysis of the situation.
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
XO:  I am picking up two destroyed communication platforms around the planet...
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
*CSO*:  Telemetry is being received....
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
*CAG*: Davis to Williams.
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
::Half-smiles, still professionally::  Amica:  I'll have you know I haven't blown up anything much lately.  I delivered some supplies to a remote outpost, though.  They were very grateful.  ::References his PADD and starts punching some sequences into the computer to deactivate the drill protocols for the time being::
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<PC_SSgt_Oley>  ::enters Sickbay in stride, looking around::
CAG_Ens_Williams says:
::his squad engages in a criss-cross flight pattern, spreading out in two directions at first, and then four, sending fighters in the direction of just about every ship in the simulation::
Host SMDrew says:
ACTION:  Three probes fire from the forward torpedo tubes and race through the debris toward the planet.
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
CSO: Destroyed?  From the spatial disruptions Lieutenant?
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
:: Looks over at one of her data screens of the area then back and taps a command.::  XO:  There is a third one on the far side of the planet... it appears to be taking heavy damage from the solar radiation... not good for the people below either.
CAG_Ens_Williams says:
::flies and shoots with one hand, and taps his badge with the other, wordlessly opening the com channel::
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
<CWO_Amica>  ::Shakes his head and logs in at the panel next to Welland's, doing the same::
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
::Catches movement out of the corner of his eye and heads over toward the entrance::  Oley:  Sergeant.  ::Nods::  What can I do for you?
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
CO:  Probably... I am a bit short on data just yet... let me see....
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<PC_SSgt_Oley>  ::out of habit he goes to parade rest::  CMO: Are we still doing this evac drill? I wasn't sure.
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Starts to walk over to science but decides against it one commanding officer over her shoulder is enough.  Sits back down::
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
:: Lightly taps a screen with a video feed and turns it slowly around.::  CO:  Looks like they were.
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
*CAG*: Ensign, I need to know if your men can make through this debris a little faster to make contact with Ipecce IV.
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
Oley:  To the best of my knowledge, no -- at ease, Sergeant -- but that may change if conditions improve.  It seems we dropped out of warp nearby to an asteroid field.
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<PC_SSgt_Oley>  ::remains in his position, but acknowledges the situation report with the slightest of nods::  CMO: Admittedly, I'm not a big picture sort of person, sir.
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
::Highlights the 15 'planet-killer' asteroids on the viewscreen, than alters the color on the two that the CTO indicated he would have problems with::
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
*CTO*:  We might be able to use the main deflector dish to push it out of the way...
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
CO:  Planets magnetic field appears to be doing its job so far, but that kind of intense radiation can do serious harm in a rather short amount of time to soft tissue.
CAG_Ens_Williams says:
*XO*: I will confirm with lieutenant Cerna, ::pauses to hard break his fighter port and fire at another ship:: but I fail to see why we can't.
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<CMC_MCPO_Matthews>  ::paces a little on the Bridge::
CTO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
*CEO*: Is there enough power to do so without overloading the deflector?
Host SMDrew says:
ACTION:  The Claymore passes the asteroid belt and the debris lessens to half of what it was in the outer system.  Views of the inner planets and the Ipecce sun can now be seen on the main viewscreen.
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
:: nods to herself::  CO:  Slight flux here and there... nothing that would cause the planet problems.
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
*CTO*:  It is what it is made for to begin with, moving spatial anomalies...if it is too much, the ship needs to move out of the way
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Nods:: CSO: Aye, Lieutenant.  We will have to wait and see what affects the people are having if any once we make contact.
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
Oley:  I wouldn't want to inconvenience the detachment -- chances are we'll be able to proceed as planned.  There's probably minimal risk of anything going wrong, but I will need to double-check with the bridge.  If something does come up, it might end up a wash.
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
OPS:  Your communication probes are entering orbit now.
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Watches the debris clear on the main viewer.::
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<PC_SSgt_Oley>  CMO: Very well, sir. Just let me know; we have the time blocked out, so we'll be awaiting word for the next hour or so.
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
*CMO*:  Doc, just a heads up, the colony is dealing with intense radiation from solar flares.  The magnetic field is up and working but still...
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
FCO: ETA?
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
::Nods at the CSO, frowns at the viewscreen then shrugs and tries to contact the planet a third time::
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
:: Sends an order.::  OPS:  They are now in geocentric orbit.
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
::Frowns slightly::  Oley:  That might be my cue, actually.  I'll let you know as soon as I know anything.
CAG_Ens_Williams says:
::there being one ship left, his fighters line up to screen it... they all launch a barrage of phasers and torpedoes, giving the impression of chain lightning... the ship displays an incredible adeptness at being blown to rather sizeable pieces::
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
*CSO*:  What are we dealing with?
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
*CAG*: Keep me apprised. I’ll let you know what our intentions are.
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
<aFCO_Winters> XO: 10 minutes Commander at our current speed.
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
*CEO* We have cleared the worst of the asteroids, sir.
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
*CMO*:  Humans... high radiation... that is the best I can tell you at the moment.  Numbers of past match life forms I am picking up now.
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<PC_SSgt_Oley>  ::nods and executes an about-face before departing for the barracks::
CAG_Ens_Williams says:
::closes the channel in much the same way he opened it, and signals his squad to return to their holographic base::
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
*OPS*:  Understood
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
*CSO*:  As soon as you have any word on conditions...
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
*CMO* We have cleared the worst of the asteroid belt, commander.
Host Councilman_Ruther says:
::Brief static fills the communications station before a message begins to clear up.:: COM: USS Claymore:  This is Councilman Ruther on the Ipecce Colony.  We are glad to have you in the system.
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
*CMO*: I will let you know...
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
CO: Our fighters probably won't make it there much quicker; I'm not sure it would make sense to send them ahead of us.
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
Amica:  Tell Alpha and Gamma to prep with radiation gear and have inoculations ready.
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
CO: Incoming message from the planet ma'am.
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
<CWO_Amica>  ::Nods once and heads off down the corridor::
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::stands once again::  OPS: Put it through Ensign.
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
::routs the Councilman's image to the screen::
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
*CSO*:  Thanks.  Welland out.
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
::plays back his last statement::
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
XO: Agreed Commander.
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
*OPS*:  Thanks for the update, Ensign.
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
<Ens. Secord> CEO:  Commander Hull, the m/ARC diagnostic is complete, no anomalies
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::sits down at his console quickly and keys in a message to Williams that indicates that they will not immediately be using his craft, regardless of Cerna's findings::
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
:: Runs the telemetry from the class IV Probe through the computer.::

MO_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::Works in sickbay::
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
COM: Councilman Ruther: I am Captain T'Shara of the USS Claymore.  We have been called to the system to assist you as needed.  First and foremost to help take care of the 15 debris fragments in the system.  Also, to render whatever aid you may require.
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<CMC_MCPO_Matthews> ::wanders down towards the command chairs, sitting in the third seat opposite the XO without even looking down until he realizes he's sitting on someone::
CTO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
::definitely not comfortable with using the navigational deflector:: *CEO*: What about the tractor beam? Perhaps that may be just enough to altar the trajectory of the largest asteroids.
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
:: runs a comparison with past data.::  XO:  Storms are planet wide... temperatures are 4 degrees above normal conditions... looks like the colony has moved partially underground; smart move.
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
::glances back as he thinks he hears a squeak, only to see the MCPO trying to sit in the CNS's lap.::
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
::Sees Raeyld at her console and walks over::  MO:  You want me to take Alpha team?  You could oversee things here, then, if we end up needing to head out, but it's up to you.  ::Leans on the bulkhead::
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<CMC_MCPO_Matthews>  ::somewhat startled, he almost gets up to a standing position without rubbing his rear end on Niventra's face::  CNS: My mistake, Lieutenant. This is a little fast for a first date.
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
*CTO*:  Either or will work, main deflector is better suited though for pushing items of mass away from the ship, tractor beam is for pulling
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
XO:  As for the main city... ummm... :: pulls up a previous map and then to the current one she is building... shakes her head::  The main city no longer exists other than debris... think of a tidal storm or hurricane going through and you will get the picture.
CAG_Ens_Williams says:
::moves down the corridor, and into the turbolift, ordering the flight deck::
MO_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::Glances up, seemingly staring past him a moment as if requiring a few seconds to readjust her focused thinking away from her work and onto Welland, then nods:: CMO: Sure.
Host Councilman_Ruther says:
COM:  USS Claymore:  Captain it is good to hear from Starfleet.  We only have communications with DS3 for tem minutes every few weeks unless the solar storms are bad.  We can use all the assistants you can provide.  We lost most of the colonies crops due to storms, but we have initiated green house gardens in our shelters.
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
:;catches the tail end of Matthew's tail end in Niventra's face before hearing Senn::  CSO: Would you advise evacuation given the conditions?
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
Matthews: Oh! 
CTO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
::looks at simulation data from the computer, and notes that even with concentrated firepower, even with quantum warheads, the entire ship's supply wouldn't reduce the big asteroids down to size:: Self: Damn... ::hears the CEO's report:: *CEO*: Hmm...if you can give us enough power to impulse, I am tempted to try the pulling method. I have an idea.
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
::resumes paying attention to his console::
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
::laughs it off:: Matthews: Quite alright, Chief... 
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
XO:  A third of the planet is now a wasteland and at a guess, at least a quarter of its life forms are now extinct.  I am working on some data... give me a sec before answering your question.
CAG_Ens_Williams says:
::steps off the lift and moves straight for flight control, where Cerna's staring a little more closely than usual at a console::
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::nods::
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
::Tilts his head a bit::  MO:  Is...everything okay?
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
::hears the CTO's comment and whispers to himself "Aye, we just got the ship back in one piece, let's fly her apart":: *CTO*:  Aye, tractor beam being deployed
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
:: Enters a few numbers and waits for the computer to complete its crunching.::
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<CMC_MCPO_Matthews>  ::without embarrassment::  CNS: Maybe we can do that again some other time.
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<CMC_MCPO_Matthews>  ::Shrugs::  CNS: Drunk or otherwise.
CAG_Ens_Williams says:
::briefly gets caught up, and nods, suspecting as much... decides to not tell the bridge his squad might get there a little faster until he's asked, and moves to call up his own display of the external environment::
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
COM: Councilman Ruther: Acknowledged.  What can we provide for you Councilman?
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
XO:  This whole thing should calm over time... simulation suggests about two years... in other words, with some aide the colony could make a go of it.
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
CSO: Well, that takes care of some of my concerns.
Host Councilman_Ruther says:
COM:  USS Claymore: We will take whatever you can offer Captain.  I will send landing coordinates as well as beam in points to your vessel.  Although I don't think you will be able to beam in due to the current storm activity.
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
*CEO*: Davis to Hull.
CTO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
::waits for the captain to conclude her dialogue with the councilman::
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
Matthews: Um... that might be too much to wish for, Chief...
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
XO: Don't want to share your room again?  :: smiles as she works on some more numbers.::
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
*XO*:  Go ahead Commander
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<CMC_MCPO_Matthews>  ::smirks, looking her over::  CNS: It might be a little more than you can handle, sister.
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
*CEO*: There are two communications platforms orbiting the planet which are damaged. Is there anything you can do to restore them?
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
*XO*:  Are they small enough to bring into the hangar bay?  If not we can use a couple of worker bee pods, shouldn't be a problem
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
::continues to maintain clear communications for the captain as he shifts auxiliary power away from the deflectors::
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
COM: Councilman Ruther: Acknowledged.  We will begin preparing a team to come down and meet with you as well as bring some supplies.  T'Shara out.
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
*CEO*: I suspect they are too large, but you might be able to work that out with Ensign Fong.
Host Councilman_Ruther says:
COM:  USS Claymore: Very good Captain we will have a welcoming committee waiting at the landing site.
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
*XO*:  Commander we just scanned them, we can beam over and repair, shouldn't take longer than 3 solar days
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
Matthews: Most likely. ::laughs::
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
CO: Captain, Commander Hull can repair the communications platforms that orbit the planet. Is it alright to recover them and begin work?
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Nods without responding and looks back at Fong to motion for him to close the channel::
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
*CEO*: Make ready to do so, Commander.
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
::cuts the channel::
CAG_Ens_Williams says:
::studies with a critical eye the readout from the bridge's tactical display, then runs his own analysis on the asteroids that would be too large to break up with weapons fire::
CTO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CO: Captain, I have a plan to tackle the worst of the 15 asteroids...but it's going to put the ship at risk.
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
XO: Aye, Commander begin recovery process.
MO_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::Takes a deep breath, then shrugs it off, looking up with a smile:: CMO: Just a bit involved in thought. ::Glances across the bay a moment:: Anything in particular you want looked after in the event of your absence?
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::walks over to tactical::  CTO: Go ahead.
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
*CMO*:  Doc, got some relatively good news for you.  The colonist were smart and took cover partially under ground.  From readings they are protected at around 99%... ignoring the fact one percent could be a killer for someone.
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
*XO*:  Aye Commander, we'll beam over as soon as I can get my team together
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
::Nods, reassured::  MO:  Nothing in particular.  Just wanted to make sure.
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<CMC_MCPO_Matthews>  ::nods, figuring as much; he wouldn't mind adding her to his trophy collection--it sounded better in his mind that way--but figures she's too nutty for that anyway::
CAG_Ens_Williams says:
::runs his own simulation, attempting to determine how much power would be required to alter the course of one of the asteroids::
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
XO:  Commander, with the current situation, you have about a four hour window... longer of course if you want to wear rad suits.
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
*CSO*:  Well, that's better than nothing.  Are we sending over any assistance?
CTO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CO: We can use the tractor beam to capture some of the smaller targets and tow them at high speed towards the largest two. The stellar debris can do a far better job at destroying them than our weapons ever could.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
Matthews: Chief! ::heard his thoughts and is slightly disgusted::
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
::frowns at him::
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
Ens. Secord: Mr. Secord, get two Away Teams together, damage control for communications satellites, you take one team, I'll take the other 
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
XO: Take Williams, Ensign Fong, Doctor Niventra and Commander Raeyld on an aid mission to the planet.  Take a cargo shuttle with whatever supplies you think they will need.
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
*CMO*:  Aye, they are preparing an away team now.
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<CMC_MCPO_Matthews>  CNS: Oh, come on. It wouldn't be my first officer.  ::laughs and walks away::
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
::looks up at the mention of his name::
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::nods::  OPS: See to it that we have provisions and other supplies loaded, Ensign.
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
<Ens. Secord> CEO:  Aye Sir, assembling my team, we will transport over from transporter room 3
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
::shakes her head and looks at Davis::
CSO_Lt_Senn says:
:: glances over to make sure the first officer heard her.::
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
MO:  Just got to wait for word, now.  ::Heads back across the ward::  *Oley*:  Welland to Oley. Sorry, Sergeant...we're gonna have to cancel.  On the bright side, it clears your schedule the rest of the day.
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
XO: How long do you plan for the trip to be sir?
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Looks down at his console::  CTO: Which in turn puts Claymore at risk because we will be in direct line of the stellar debris.  What does Hull say as far as how she will hold up?
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
*MO*: Davis to Raeyld.
MO_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::Nods to Welland, then leans back in her chair, staring off into space a moment lost in thought, before sitting upright at the sound of Davis' voice::  *XO*: Raeyld here.
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<PC_SSgt_Oley> *CMO*: True enough, Commander. We'll commence training immediately. Oley out.
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
*MO*: Report to the Flight Deck immediately.
CMO_LtCmdr_Welland says:
::Nods, satisfied, then turns to Raeyld as he overhears::  MO:  Best laid plans, and all that stuff.  ::Shrugs::
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
Damage Control Team A:  We will be beaming over from Transporter Room 2, in 5 minutes, standard equipment
CTO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CO: He is more confident in a 'push' method using the navigational deflector to alter their trajectory. But I project that the dish will be close to full capacity just by being in close proximity to the asteroids. I do not want to risk burning it out so soon on our voyage.
MO_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::Raises an eyebrow and shrugs:: *XO*: Aye Sir.  Right away.    ::Stands from her seat and plucks up one of the bags of equipment that hadn't been put away yet::
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::shoots Niventra a look::  CNS: Let's roll.  ::heads for the Turbolift::
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
OPS: Long enough to execute my orders without killing or destroying....a lot.
CEO_LtCmdr_Hull says:
*OPS*:  Mr. Fong, Damage Control Teams A and B will be beaming over to the satellites momentarily, I will have Team A, Mr. Secord will have Team B
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
CTO: Agreed Commander I don't want to burn out the dish either.  But, I don't want to take any risk to the ship or her crew either.
CNS_LtJG_Niventra says:
::gets up suddenly and follows Davis to the turbolift::
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
::signals the shuttle bay to have a shuttle prepped and ready for launch, with supplies for an extended stay then signals the relief OPS::
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
::moves quickly to the turbolift with the XO and CNS::
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::watches as Fong moves into the cart:: Turbolift: Flight Deck!
MO_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::Slings her personal medkit around her neck and exits sickbay without another word, making her way quickly through the turbolifts and exiting onto the flight deck::
CTO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CO: The amount of risk with the tractors comes down to helm control and engineering ability to maintain steady power to engines, but I believe it is the best method.
Host SMDrew says:
