Patrolling the Frontier - Mission 33 - 11005.04
Host SMDrew says:
Summary:  The Claymore has arrived outside the Hatder 420 System after 3 days at warp.
Host SMDrew says:
************* Resume Mission ****************
aCTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
::At the tactical station, watching sensors closely::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<CMC_MCPO_Matthews>  ::on the Bridge, watching Damrok closely::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::standing next to Damrok::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<MOPS_LtJG_Gulash>  ::standing behind Damrok...at Mission Ops, of course::
aCTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
::Glances to the side::  XO:  Nothing as yet, Sir.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::turns::  aCTO: Huh?
aCTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
::Looks up::  XO:  I have no readings yet that would indicate that a Breen outpost is located in the system.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
aCTO: No warp signatures? Energy traces? Unusual heat readings?
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Sitting in her chair on the bridge::
aCTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
XO:  Unfortunately, no, Sir.  Here are preliminary readings on the inhabited planet, however.  ::Pulls them up at Tactical Two::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::looks down at the station::
aCTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
XO:  A native population of 4.3 billion.  They do have satellites in orbit, but there are no warp signatures...  ::Narrows his eyes at the screen::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<MOPS_LtJG_Gulash>  ::turns to Damrok and Davis, and sort of Matthews::  aCTO/XO: The Breen have little honor. They will no doubt hide for as long as possible, if we are to ever find them at all.
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
::on the bridge at the operations station going over the reports of communications that the Claymore had picked up::
aCTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
XO:  There are, however...long range probes in the sector, with communication links to Hatder III.  Must be...exploratory probes of some kind.  I will find out more.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::reads through the information, much of which overlaps with Damrok's auditory report::
aCTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
XO:  I must say...I am inclined to agree with Mister Gulash.  ::Looks back at his console and commences scanning, trying to find out what the probes' scanning arcs are::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::nods to no one in particular, although it was probably to the rumbly Klingon, then looks forward towards Fong::  OPS: Anything on your end, Ensign?
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
<Comm_2PO_Lou> ::on the bridge at a configurable station, with a headphone in her ear while she listens to the comms.::
MO_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::Waits contemplatively in the turbolift as it whooshes through the bowels of the ship::
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
OPS: Mr. Fong get with engineering we will need a way to mask the Claymore once we are in the system.
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
XO: As near as I can tell, Hatdar Three has set up a pretty extensive deep space communication system, sir.
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
*MO*: Doctor we will be dealing with a possible Class P environment we need to make sure a possible away team party will be medically safe even exposed for a short time.  I would like any suggestions you might have on this matter.
CAG_FO_Williams says:
::sitting in flight control, his eyes on the display console before him while senior officials of his department remain nearby doing duties he doesn't overly appear entirely too concerned about at this point::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::nods, hearing much of the third planet, but nothing of the Breen or anything else; he sighs lightly, figuring this is good news for the time being::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<CMC_MCPO_Matthews>  ::gets up and moves towards the gaggle of officers at tactical::  aCTO/XO/MOPS/OPS/CO: I say we blast the crap out of the Breen the moment we see them.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<CMC_MCPO_Matthews>  ::shakes his head::  Self: Filth..
aCTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
::Glances pointedly to Davis a moment, then to Matthews, an odd half-smile on his face::
CAG_FO_Williams says:
<FP_FL_Cerna> ::at the console next to Williams, coordinating pilot assignments for one of their reserve squads::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
CMC: Tough run-ins with them, Master Chief?
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
CO: I will do what I can Captain...but they have several visual telescopes, if they get lucky they could catch sight of the claymore no matter what we do.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<CMC_MCPO_Matthews>  ::folds arms, staring off at the view screen as he enters a place in the past, although not that long ago::  XO: You could say that..
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Turns around from her chair and looks at Matthews raised eyebrow.  Before she can answer she listens to Davis::
aCTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
::Off-handedly::  XO/CMC:  I have...little love for the Breen, myself.  ::Smiles once, then continues working::
MO_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::As the comm transfers the last of the Captain's voice over her badge, the turbolift doors slide open and she steps out onto the bridge:: CO: Captain.   ::Nods, then waits, as the bridge crew seems to be in the middle of a....thing.::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<CMC_MCPO_Matthews>  ::blinks, fast-forwarding to the present, in time to hear Damrok:: aCTO: We ran into plenty of them in the Dominion War, and it was ugly.
aCTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
::Nods slowly as he hears Matthews speak::
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
::glances at the arriving turbolift than suddenly becomes very interested in something on his console.::
CAG_FO_Williams says:
::gets up from his console, moves over to the replicator, and orders himself a neat scotch, before returning to his seat and continuing to monitor the information being relayed through to him from the bridge::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::Looks away from the other officers and the data in front of him, towards T'Shara::  CO: Perhaps we could obscure ourselves to all parties that might be interested.
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
<COM_2PO_Lou>::goes over a bit of the saved sound again, trying to clean some of the background noise and interference out of the audio recording::
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
OPS: Well hopefully luck will be on our side and not there's Mr. Fong.  Do what you can and let me know what you come up with.
MO_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::As she waits leaning back against an empty console, listening in on Matthews, T'Shara's, Damrok's, and Davis' conversation, she pulls a PADD from her pocket, giving a last glance about the bridge, then begins tapping up a few recommendations::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<CMC_MCPO_Matthews>  aCTO: I can remember at least seven engagements directly against the Breen, and we were boarded at least twice.
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Notices Raeyld enter the bridge and nods::  XO: What do you have in mind Commander.  ::Gets up from her chair::
CSO_LtCmdr_Senn says:
:: Finishes helping to clean up the experiment she just helped her daughter’s class do.::
MO_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::Wavers ever-so-slightly as the Breen are mentioned again, but maintains her position, focusing on her task with the PADD::
Host SMDrew says:
ACTION:  A tiny red flashing light begins to blink on the OPS console....
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::walks over near tactical not wanting to ignore Raeyld in the process as she needs to speak to her about medical options.::
aCTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
CMC:  The Breen, I am told, often take prisoners.
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
::decides that the tiny flashing light is probably a bad thing than investigates it.::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::heads around the tactical console, towards the center of the Bridge::  CO: Perhaps if we take a more indirect path on the outer rim of the system, we could keep our distance from the third planet, and maybe keep it from looking so obvious that we are here for something---for a time, anyway.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<CMC_MCPO_Matthews>  ::nods gravely::  aCTO: They don't treat them well, either.
CSO_LtCmdr_Senn says:
:: kisses her daughter on the cheek and gently turns her to join the others before standing.  At the teachers thanks, she smiles and heads out.::
CSO_LtCmdr_Senn says:
:: Dusting her hand, she heads for the nearest lift.::  Computer:  Bridge.
aCTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
CMC:  Were you largely on the front lines during the war, Master Chief?  ::Glances to the sensors again, tracking the sensor probes carefully and extrapolating their range to find out just how much of the system is covered between the probes and the telescopes::
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Nods::  XO: That sounds like a logical option for now.  Also, could it be possible to replicate a solar flare where by disabling or disrupting their deep space network long enough for us to slip inside?
MO_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::Was it Breen...?  Or Jem'Hadar...?  Or Cardassians...?  No no no...stay focused.  Delactovine. Formazine. Masiform D....  Dexalin, Vasokin, MR Injection...::
CSO_LtCmdr_Senn says:
:: As the lift stops, she steps onto the bridge and heads over to science, nodding a greeting to a passing ensign.::
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
::frowns and forwards the information to Lou's console with a priority flag to identify the language.::  XO: Sir...I am picking up signals from the eighth and fourteenth planets...they appear to be automated.  As near as I can tell they are not in the language we have picked up from Hatder three.::
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Nods to Senn as she steps onto the bridge::
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::Frowns::  OPS: On speakers, Ensign.
aCTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
::Sees a different color light up on his sensor nets, and a key popping up to denote just what the new overlay means...glances to Fong as he's already caught it and reported::
CSO_LtCmdr_Senn says:
:: nods a greeting to the captain, pausing::  CO:  It was not as bad as I thought...once I stopped trying to explain things.
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
<COM_2PO_Lou> ::begins cleaning the interference out of the comm recording and feeding it to the universal translator.::
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Still standing near Davis and tactical she pauses to listen::
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
XO: Aye sir. ::routes one of the comm signals to the bridge speakers, with the audio turned down.::
CSO_LtCmdr_Senn says:
:: At her station, she listens as Archimedes fills her in::
aCTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
::Glances around, noting Senn has arrived on the bridge;:
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
CSO: Good to hear Commander.  ::a slight grin seen on her face::
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::listens to the sounds--it's basically just sounds to him since he doesn't recognize the sound, the tones, or most importantly what they mean::
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
OPS: What do you think of it, Lieutenant?
MO_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::Glances up briefly as the focus on the bridge shifts to the new signal that's been picked up, resting her PADD against her thigh momentarily::
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
::shakes his head looks at the visual representation of the signals, and overlays them than frowns again:: XO: Landing Beacons?
CAG_FO_Williams says:
::takes an idle pull from the glass, then sets it beside his work area, still monitoring in silence while senior pilots and support staff work around him::
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::nods, considering the answer, but having no real basis for comparison or contrast::  OPS: An educated guess, or just conjecture?
MO_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::Runs through several possibilities in her mind, mulling them over pensively::
CSO_LtCmdr_Senn says:
:: Nods as Archimedes stands and slips into the chair.  Lightly she taps a few keys tied to the sensors, altering them and fine tuning them.::
aCTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
::Looks to the sensors momentarily, to find out whether there is anything at the triangulated point where the broadcasts meet::
CSO_LtCmdr_Senn says:
:: As the data flows across her screen, she lifts a brow.::  CO:  Captain...
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
::thinks for a moment than shakes his head:: XO: Conjecture sir...bad at that.  If they were landing beacons than they would be turned off until someone showed up.
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Turns around::  CSO: What do you have Commander?  ::Makes her way over to science::
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::Shrugs, wondering why he said anything at all before his contempt is replaced by curiosity; he looks towards Senn as well::
CAG_FO_Williams says:
::ties into the communications systems after a moment, picking up on the signal as it's being received and begins to run his own attempt at decoding it::
MO_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::Civilian guest....No, still a person, still a risk.  Hologram? No, programs can be hacked. Anything anywhere close to secure could only be obtained at a decent sized base or station, certainly not here on the Claymore::
CSO_LtCmdr_Senn says:
CO:  I am reading 8 radio telescopes on Hatder III.  If we enter the system, they could pick up on us.... though I do not think they would know what it was they were picking up.
MO_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::Shakes her head a moment, tapping her PADD against her thigh a few times before lifting it again to add a few more medical notes::
aCTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
OPS:  Yet, the broadcasts are localized...what might that indicate?  ::Narrows his eyes a bit at his panel::  They are not meant for those outside the atmospheres of the respective planets.
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
aCTO/OPS: Or, at the very least, only someone who might know that there is something on the planets..
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
CSO: Would it be possible to replicate a solar flare where by disabling or disrupting their deep space network long enough for us to slip inside?
CSO_LtCmdr_Senn says:
:: Considers a moment::
MO_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::Lowers the PADD once more, thoughtfully, glancing over the occupants of the bridge::
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<CMC_MCPO_Matthews>  ::distracted by his hatred of the Breen, he turns to the side and notices Raeyld::  MO: Commander..
CSO_LtCmdr_Senn says:
CO:  Their technology is about equivalent to Earth's twentieth century.  I could pull something off with engineering’s help and the use of the deflector dish without them being too suspicious... but I cannot promise.
CSO_LtCmdr_Senn says:
CO:  I remember reading something about Earth's suspicious nature.
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
CSO: Understood.  See what you can do begin working with Engineering immediately and keep me posted on your progress.
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
CSO: Aye, I believe I read something to that fact as well Commander.
MO_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::Swallows once, steadily, before settling her eyes on Matthews, with a nod:: CMC: Chief.
CSO_LtCmdr_Senn says:
:: nods and stands::  SO:  Yours again... I will be in engineering.  :: shakes her head::  I seem to find myself more and more there... :: smiles teasingly::  Poor engineers.
Host XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<CMC_MCPO_Matthews>  MO: Not enough work to do in Sickbay these days?
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Nods as Senn prepares to leave the bridge and makes her way finally over to Raeyld as she has patiently been waiting::  MO: Sorry doctor what do you have?
CSO_LtCmdr_Senn says:
:: As the lift deposits here, she slips through the engineering doors and goes in search of the chief.::
OPS_Ens_Fong says:
XO/aCTO: The signals are quite obvious to our tech level, but should be invisible to the inhabitants of Hatder three.  The signals are simple, and unchanging.  If we want to find out more about them we are going to have to  investigate them physically.
aCTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
OPS:  Not a rousing prospect.  ::That avenue explored, looks back down to his console and continues scanning::
MO_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::A very brief smile flashes across her lips to  Matthews, but she turns quickly T'Shara, holding forth the PADD she'd been working at:: CO: Several options to increase the "hardiness" of any away team members, mostly through stimulants and other medications to increase their metabolism and blood flow.
MO_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
CO: These would be preventative measures, though...  ::Indicates a point further down along the PADD:: In the case of severe exposure with a delay before proper treatment can be begun, the team should also carry these treatments to reduce their metabolic needs while waiting to be recovered.
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Looks at the PADD the doctor has in her hand::  MO: Is there any risk to the team for increasing their blood flow like that?
Host CO_Capt_TShara says:
::Continues to read the data Raeyld is showing her::  MO: I see doctor how long would it take your team to have the proper medication ready?
MO_LtCmdr_Raeyld says:
::Draws a quick breath:: CO: In the short term, it's no greater risk that a long night of raktajino. I wouldn't recommend the preventative process for over twelve hours, though. Teams should be rotated if longer stays are necessary.  Treatment packs can be prepared within the hour.
