Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
USS Don Johnson NCC 61701 SD 10712.06
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
Our group are speeding towards the Neutral Zone to find out what has happened to the SS Mainstream and the Romulan Warbird that was shadowing them.  As it turns out both ships are now devoid of live except for an old man and a baby still on the Mainstream.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
The Romulan Empire is sending a second Warbird to see what happened to the first and has agreed to aid the Don Johnson in its rescue of the Mainstream.  What will our crew find when they reach the last coordinates?  Only time will tell.

TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
::posts extra guards at sensitive areas of the ship: :CTO: Chief I posted extra security at sensitive areas around the ship.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
::at the helm running at warp 9::
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
::in main engineering, keeping the workings in order::
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::nods:: TO: Good.  Let's also make sure that we have only a limited number that are off-duty.  Inform them to be ready at the drop of a hat
XO_Stidd says:
:: Enters the bridge for the first time since his self imposed exile::
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
::walks out of the turbo lift::
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::looks up and sees Stidd:: XO: Commander ::gives him a small grin and nod::
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
CTO: Already done...had all off duty security personnel report for duty....::turns to  the XO:: XO: Welcome Back Commander.
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
ALL: Captain on the Bridge
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
XO: Commander Stidd welcome.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
ACTION: A little dip in the power on the port nacelle sets off the alarm in engineering.
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
TO: Have at least one from each team go off-duty.  They can rotate then as needed.  Make sure every team has at least two cross trained as medics
XO_Stidd says:
:: Nods to the CTO:  CO: As you requested, I am reporting for duty.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
All: Relax people.  To  your stations.  Nothing has changed as of yet.
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
::look into power drain::  Self:  Now what?  ::runs diagnostic::
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
XO: Take your place Number One.
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::keeps an eye on her old friend, one of these days, she thinks::
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
CO: We have a power drain in the port nacelle, Captain.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
CSO: How we coming with.....a power drain?
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
*EO*: Seamus what is going on with the engines?
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
ACTION: The power drain is from a ruptured warp relay.
CSO_Sojyngra says:
CO: I'm trying to get the internal sensor readings now.
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
CTO: Understood...setting up rotation.
XO_Stidd says:
::Sits in his chair and sends a text message to the CTO to prepare for the four shift rotation once we get to the Mainstream::
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
::tries recalibrating warp coil sequence::  *CO*:  Still looking into it sir.  Looks like a warp interlink relay has blown.
CSO_Sojyngra says:
CO: Nothing on external sensors should have caused that.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
*EO*: Fix it Seamus and get me back on schedule.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
FCO: Back us down to warp 8 to give engineering time to fix the relay.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
TO: How are the security teams coming?
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
CO: Aye, Captain, Warp 8 it is. ::slows the ship to Warp 8::
XO_Stidd says:
:: Sends the same text message to OPS to be spread throughout the ship for all duty stations::
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::looks at her board at the beep, smiles and laughs softly to herself.  Sends him the duty roster, including the one off for each team and the two medics on each team::
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
ACTION: LRS pick up a second Romulan Warbird shadowing the Mainstream the first Warbird.
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
CO: LRS are picking up another Warbird shadowing the mainstream
CSO_Sojyngra says:
::is glad that it was just a mechanical glitch, even if she could have done without it::
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
::watches the relay as the ship is throttled down::  EO_Hicks:  Hicks, go pull a number 12 relay out of ship's stores, and meet me in warp control.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
TO: For now let’s just shadow her and see what happens.
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
<Hicks>:  MacLeod:  On my way.
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::taps a command into her board and reads the sensors information::
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
CO: Understood...I'll keep any eye on it.
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
*FCO*:  Commander McPhee, I'm going to need you to cut her back a bit more.  Can you drop us to warp 5?
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
FCO: Do it.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
CSO: Keep your eyes on that Warbird and let me know the moment you lose the crew.  I have to find out what is on that ship before I will commit my ship to what ever it is.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
::Nods to the captain:: *EO*: Sure thing, Ensign, anything to help ::slows her down to warp 5::
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
::looks over at the CTO and gives that worried look::
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
::takes the bad relay off line letting the remaining relays take up the slack::  *FCO*:  Thank-you, I'll have this fixed in ten minutes tops.  ::starts out for the warp control node::
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
*EO*: I'll hold you to that, Ensign. ::chuckles::
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
Self: This is not good.  Not good at all.
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
CSO: Is there anyway we can increase the long range sensors?
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
::enters the warp control node, followed shortly by EO_Hicks::  Hicks:  I've isolated the bad relay,  and the remaining relays aren't going to last forever picking up the slack.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
ACTION: The LRS can barely discern the Warbird but the Mainstream is visible but still unable to detect any life signs as of yet and any reason of being void of life.
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
<Hicks>  ::hands over the new relay::  MacLeod:  shouldn't be a problem.
XO_Stidd says:
<Duty OPS> :: Transmits the message to all the duty boards and sends the transmit report back to Stidd::
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
::opens up access panel to J-Tube and enters it with relay::
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
<Hicks>::Follows with an eng. kit::
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
CO/CTO: I am barley able to pick up the warbird...still unable to detect why the mainstream is void of life though.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
::sits in her chair and watches her people do their jobs::
CSO_Sojyngra says:
CO: ::almost too burried in the readings to respond:: I'm recording everything as it comes in, captain.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
CSO: Good Jyn.
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
CTO: Isn't there anyway we can extend the LRS?
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
::reaches junction, locates panel and taps access code to open panel::
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
<Hicks>::hands MacLeod an iso-spanner::
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
CTO: How we doing with security?
CSO_Sojyngra says:
CO: ::as many times as she'd almost told the captain to call her that, she was actually somewhat grateful that the captain decided to do so on her own, taking the decision of whether or not to say that out of her hands::
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
TO: Try this ::taps a few quick commands and tries to get a better reading::
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
CSO: Anyway we can extend the range of the LRS? SO I can get a detailed reading on the mainstream?
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
::uses the tool to disconnect the damaged relay and yanks it out, handing it to Hicks, who promptly lets it drop to the deck::  Hicks:  Careful, that's hot.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
ACTION: Romulan’s have detected the Tevold again, still running parallel with the Mainstream, and no life forms on board.
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: All but one for each team is on duty.  We have only one off duty for each one and two with medic training on each team
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
<Hicks> MacLeod:  Thanks.
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
::Installs the new relay, and secures the connections::  Self/Hicks:  I think we can skip the test run.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
All: I am going to ask your advice on this one and I need your answers.
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: Lieutenant Lemmick has increased security to the sensitive areas.
CSO_Sojyngra says:
::watches the readings on the sensors:: CO: They're gone.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
ALL: With the loss of life on .......CTO: Thank you. CSO: Who is gone?
XO_Stidd says:
CO: All duty stations will go to a 4 shift rotation as soon as we reach the Mainstream.
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
*Engineering*:  MacLeod to Ensign Reese.  Release my lockout of warp plasma relay L-97 and bring it online.
CSO_Sojyngra says:
CO: The Romulan’s, unless I just lost them because of the sensor problems.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
CSO: May be but keep your eyes on it.
CSO_Sojyngra says:
CO: The ship's still there, but they're gone.
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
::scans the new relay with a tricorder was it comes to life...  Smiles::  *FCO*:  Commander McPhee, this is Ensign MacLeod.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
*EO*: Yes, Ensign.
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
*FCO*:  The new relay is up and running, you can throttle up again.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
CSO: Hold on to that reading.
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
Hicks:  You wanna keep an eye on this, I'll head back to engineering.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
FCO: Can we get back to warp 9.98?
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
*EO*: Thank you, Seamus, I appreciate it,
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
<Hicks> MacLeod:  Sure thing.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
*EO*: Can we get to 9.98, Ensign?
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
ACTION: Incoming message to the Captain.
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
*CO*:  Aye Captain.  Kick her in the guts as it were.
CSO_Sojyngra says:
CO: Aye, captain ::buried in the monitor::
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
::increases speed::
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
*FCO*:  Sorry Commander, yes, you should have no worries.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
*EO*: All right then.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
CO: Increasing speed to 9.98.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
::smiles:: Self: Good boy Seamus.
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::sends TO Lemmick down to check on the security teams and make sure that they know about the XO's four shift rotation::
XO_Stidd says:
<Duty OPS> CO: Incoming message, ma'am
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
Duty OPS: Route it to my chair.
XO_Stidd says:
<Duty OPS> ::Routes the message to the Captains chair::
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::moves to check the sensors on her board::
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
ACTION: The Romulan government has given its authority for the USS Don Johnson to enter the Neural Zone in a joint rescue mission.  They are to meet up with the second Warbird as soon as possible and contact them when in range.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
All: Well that is something to see.  We are authorized to enter the Neutral Zone and catch up with the second Warbird.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
CO: That is good news, Captain.
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: Ma'am?  They must be in trouble then, if they want our help
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
ALL: Well what I wanted was to stop at the Gamma Hromi system and drop off all non coms including my parents and twins.  I don't relish taking non coms into a situation where everyone ends up dead or dying.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
CTO: That is a certainty
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::nods:: CO: Understood Captain.  I'll assign a security detail to help with that, on your orders that is Captain  ::gives her friend a quick wink::
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
::nods at her friend::
CSO_Sojyngra says:
::still watching the sensors, but now, in her eyes, in her mind, in her heart, she's reaching out for something she's dreamed of since she was a little girl as she reaches toward the monitor:: ::for the first time, she wonders, "Could this be home?"::
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
::watching the engines at the helm as she's going pretty fast::
XO_Stidd says:
:: Adjusts in his chair only to notice that is squeaks loudly when he does::
