FCO Newell McPhee says:
::at the helm after being checked out in sickbay::

XO Cmdr Stidd says:
::Stidd enters the bridge and takes the center seat::

OPS Jankara says:
::in sickbay being treated for her headache::

CTO Cmdr Fowler says:
::Enters the brig, sees the others are gone, including Ensign Gheel::

CEO McPhee says:
::in main engineering::

CTO Cmdr Fowler says:
::heads to the security desk:: *Bridge* Fowler to bridge

Major Barrett says:
::Looking for a good spot to stay for a moment::

XO Cmdr Stidd says:
*CTO*: Bridge here.  Report.

CTO Cmdr Fowler says:
*XO* Commander, I was told that I had a full brig.

CTO Cmdr Fowler says:
*XO* I just got here and there is no one here.  Care to fill me in on why the brig is empty?

TO Ens Singleton says:
:: standing on the bridge waiting to be relieved by the CTO. Keeping an eye on everything tactical :: 

XO Cmdr Stidd says:
*CTO*: That is correct, but everyone but the Major was released.  He is now your only guest.

OPS Jankara says:
::is released by sickbay and heads back to the bridge::

XO Cmdr Stidd says:
*CTO*: The Major should still be in the brig.

CTO Cmdr Fowler says:
*XO*: Commander there is no one here.  Even my Ensign that had guard duty is gone

FCO Newell McPhee says:
::thinks the major no longer being in the brig is not a good thing and her face shows it::

CTO Cmdr Fowler says:
::looks around for a clue as to where the Major and her Ensign went::

XO Cmdr Stidd says:
*CTO*: Do not set off any alarms but I want your security teams on full alert.  The major is to be considered armed and dangerous.  Your teams are to fire without prejudice if they see the Major but I want him found.

TO Ens Singleton says:
:: punching in a few commands watching over sensors both LRS and SRS :: 

CTO Cmdr Fowler says:
::sighs:: Self: of course ::makes a face:: *XO* Understood

ACTION: Singleton's commands fail.

TO Ens Singleton says:
:: gets a puzzled look on his face :: Self: What the...

XO Cmdr Stidd says:
:: Turns to the TO:: TO: can you find the major on internal sensors at all?

CTO Cmdr Fowler says:
::touches a button on the console in the brig.  Then heads to Security::

OPS Jankara1 says:
::enters the lift and orders it to the bridge::

TO Ens Singleton says:
XO: No sir. I can't. I'm trying my hardest 

Major Barrett says:
::looking for a computer interface where he can work in private::

XO Cmdr Stidd says:
:: Attempts to bring up an internal monitor on the Center Seat display console::

TO Ens Singleton says:
:: tries narrowing the scan but can't pick anything up :: 

TO Ens Singleton says:
XO: I'm going to try something different. Going to scan for any unauthorized computer usage. That could give us a clue as to where the Major is.

OPS Jankara says:
::enters the bridge, relieves Schnapps, and takes her seat::

CTO Cmdr Fowler says:
::enters the security room, updates her teams there and sends them out to patrol the ship::

XO Cmdr Stidd says:
Self: I figured as much.  TO: That is a good idea but I believe you will find nothing on your scans either.

TO Ens Singleton says:
XO: Most likely, but it’s always worth a shot.

Major Barrett says:
::Enters an unoccupied VIP quarters::

OPS Jankara says:
::logs in to her console and begins checking comms to and from the ship::

CTO Cmdr Fowler says:
::Goes to her office and opens a locked drawer.  She grabs a tricorder that she had used when in SFI::

XO Cmdr Stidd says:
:: Moves to Science Console 2 and removes a little black box from a pocket and begins to attach it to the circuitry on the console::

FCO Newell McPhee says:
XO: Commander, our ETA to Quinor is 12 hours, sir.

Major Barrett says:
Computer: Lock and secure the doors to these quarters and only allow access to Barrett, authorization Delta Alpha one.

Host Computer says:
Barrett: Lockout confirmed.

OPS Jankara says:
::finding nothing unusual, sets the comms to notify her of unauthorized contacts and moves on the general traffic in the area::

CTO Cmdr Fowler says:
TO: Ensign T'lai, stay here and cover security.  Anyone calls in that they found the Major you call me ASAP.  I'm going out to see what I can find

XO Cmdr Stidd says:
FCO: Be prepared but I have a feeling our ship may not be in our control any more.  Prepare for an all stop, but do not engage it yet.

CTO Cmdr Fowler says:
*TO* Fowler to Ensign Singleton

FCO Newell McPhee says:
XO: Aye sir. ::prepares for "all stop"::

TO Ens Singleton says:
*CTO* Yes sir.. 

Major Barrett says:
Computer: Establish long range communications to Star Fleet intelligence, top priority and encoded and encrypted.

CTO Cmdr Fowler says:
*TO* Have you run any interior scans?

XO Cmdr Stidd says:
Computer: Computer, what is the status of the ships command codes?

Host Computer says:
Barrett: Channel established

OPS Jankara says:
::frowns as hearing one transmission and hones in on it for a minute::

TO Ens Singleton says:
CTO: Yes I have. Haven’t' found anything out of the ordinary.

OPS Jankara says:
XO: Commander, I've found a message confirming that Blackthorne will arrive at Quinor in 14 hours, Sir.

XO Cmdr Stidd says:
Ops: Understood.

CTO Cmdr Fowler says:
*TO*: Didn't figure he'd be that dumb.  Keep a continuous scan running.  Just in case he makes a mistake, I want to be ready to catch him.

Host Computer says:
Stidd: Ship's command codes in order.

TO Ens Singleton says:
*CTO* Understood. Continuous scan starting 

Major Barrett says:
SFI: Alpha One, Barrett here. I have had to take control of the vessel by extraordinary means. Expect resistance to forthcoming actions. Will continue with mission. Further communications to follow. Barrett out.

CTO Cmdr Fowler says:
*TO* Notify me if anything turns up.

TO Ens Singleton says:
*CTO* Understood sir.. 

XO Cmdr Stidd says:
Computer: Computer, shut down all cargo bays.  Authorization Stidd, Alpha 2-5-1 enable.

CTO Cmdr Fowler says:
*TO* Good.  Fowler out

CTO Cmdr Fowler says:
::moves down the corridor, scanning with her tricorder in a sweeping motion::

Host Computer says:
XO: Access denied.

FCO Newell McPhee says:
XO: That's not good, sir.

XO Cmdr Stidd says:
ALL: Our command codes have been changed.  He is doing just what I would do.  He is good.

XO Cmdr Stidd says:
FCO: All stop.

TO Ens Singleton says:
XO: I'm going to try something.. 

FCO Newell McPhee says:
XO: Aye sir, all stop! ::pushes the button that stops the ship dead cold::

CTO Cmdr Fowler says:
::stops at her quarters and straps on her blade then heads back out to continue the search::

Major Barrett says:
::Feels the ship stop::

TO Ens Singleton says:
:: punches in his own command codes :: 

XO Cmdr Stidd says:
TO: Whatever you have in mind you are free to try.

XO Cmdr Stidd says:
*CEO*: Prepare to manually eject the core into space.

TO Ens Singleton says:
:: slams fist on console ::  XO: Command codes full disabled. 

Major Barrett says:
*CO*: I must surmise that since we have stopped you have found that I have once again taken command of this vessel.

CEO McPhee says:
*XO*:Aye sir, preparing to manually eject the core.

TO Ens Singleton says:
:: starts scanning for the source of the comm :: 

CEO McPhee says:
::moves over to the core and accesses the manual controls::

CTO Cmdr Fowler says:
::exits the lift and moves down another corridor, still scanning::

OPS Jankara says:
XO: Commander, it appears that Barrett has rerouted the command codes.  We can do our basic jobs but he is in ultimate control, Sir.

Major Barrett says:
*CO*: Now may I assume that we can have a civil conversation and get this mission back on track?

XO Cmdr Stidd says:
*Major*: Since the CO is currently being checked over by our good doctor, I am afraid you will have to deal with me, Jamie boy.

TO Ens Singleton says:
XO: I have an idea, but that means purging the computer core.. 

Major Barrett says:
*XO*: Very well. Are you prepared to act like a Starfleet officer now?

OPS Jankara says:
::over hears the comm and mutters..."I don't know...are you one to judge how a Starfleet officer is supposed to act?"::

XO Cmdr Stidd says:
*Major*: I am prepared to strand this vessel here in space unless you return control of this ship back over to the crew immediately, if not sooner.

CEO McPhee says:
::motions for EO Hotpants to assist him::

Major Barrett says:
*XO*: Of course that would mean mission failure and who knows what the dire consequences might be. Are you willing to accept innocent lives on your hands?

CTO Cmdr Fowler says:
::muttering to herself: Self: come out, come out wherever you are.....  ::continuing to scan::

TO Ens Singleton says:
XO: Permission to try my idea.. 

OPS Jankara says:
*CTO*: Commander Fowler, Barrett is somewhere where he can't be overheard using the comm and has access because he's locked out Command codes.

OPS Jankara says:
*CTO*: He's currently contacting Commander Stidd.

XO Cmdr Stidd says:
*Major*: They would be on your hands, not mine.  :: Nods to TO without saying a word::  You would have one more failure to your list of failures.

TO Ens Singleton says:
:: starts punching in his commands to try and purge the main computer core  while switching to the secondary core :: 

CTO Cmdr Fowler says:
*OPS* Understood.  If you get a lock, contact me at once

Major Barrett says:
*XO*: I have had to make many hard decisions in my career but very few failures.

XO Cmdr Stidd says:
*Major*: Japor comes to mind as a major failure.  You should have pulled back when you were discovered.  Instead YOU ordered the men to advance.

CTO Cmdr Fowler says:
::Keeps scanning as she moves towards a lift, just in case she has to move fast::

FCO Newell McPhee says:
::listens to the conversation between the major and the commander:

TO Ens Singleton says:
:: taps a message to both the FCO and OPS :: FCO/OPS: totally erasing main computer core and switching us to secondary core

ACTION:  The secondary computer core comes online, however the primary core fails to purge.  

Major Barrett says:
*XO*: And how would you know of Japor? Perhaps you were in league with the traitor who betrayed us?

FCO Newell McPhee says:
::looks up and nods at Singleton's message::

XO Cmdr Stidd says:
:: Activates the black box under the console and begins entering in code after code building a program::

TO Ens Singleton says:
:: mutters to self :: Self : Brilliant, just Brilliant

OPS Jankara says:
*CTO*: Commander, he's on deck 2.  I can't give you more than that.

CTO Cmdr Fowler says:
*OPS* That's a start at least.

TO Ens Singleton says:
:: punches in another message to FCO and OPS:: secondary core online, main core failed to purge. Trying to severe the connection to main core

XO Cmdr Stidd says:
*Major*: Nice try but I am Vulcan and we don't rile that easily.  Semaj was my son and he had a lot of friends that died that day because of you.

CTO Cmdr Fowler says:
*Security*: T'lai, I want you to send Teams Delta and Omega to deck 2

TO Ens Singleton says:
:: proceeds in trying to severe the main computer core :: 

TO T’lai says:
 *CTO* Understood.  ::A slight pause:: They are on the way

CTO Cmdr Fowler says:
::Enters the lift and heads to deck two.  Exits the lift once it arrives and scans as she moves down the hallway::

Major Barrett says:
XO: And yet he never tried to find out what happened and why. Very un-Vulcan like.
