Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
The Don Johnson is now back on its course towards the Neutral Zone and with the Non-Starfleet personnel no longer on the ship, the crew can devote their time to their mission.

Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
FCO: Good.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
*EO*: Seamus how we doing down there?
SO_Ens_McGavin says:
::Doing a long range scan of the approaching space::
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
TO: Good.  ::Nods at Lemmick and checks her board::
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
*CO*:  We're all smiles down here, Captain.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
SO: Keep those scanners going. I need everything you can get me on the Mainstream and the Tevold.
SO_Ens_McGavin says:
CO: Aye sir.
OPS_Smythe says:
::a last green light on her board lights and she double checks to make sure that the reports are right::  CO: Captain, I have reports from the other departments.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
OPS: Let’s have them.
OPS_Smythe says:
CO: Those that were primarily civilian/non-com run have been put on standby and, where noted, taken off line for the duration.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
::nods::
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
CTO: How we doing security wise?
OPS_Smythe says:
CO: Those that are a mix of Civilian/non-com and officers are on half power with orders to go to full power when you give the word.  The rest are waiting for your word, Captain
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
::runs a tachyon sweep for cloaked Romulan Warbirds::
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: Lemmick reported that all areas are secure.  All security are armed with both hand phasers and rifles
SO_Ens_McGavin says:
CO: Only two life form readings on the Mainstream, sir.
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::glances at Lemmick and nods, giving him a quick smile::
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
::Glances at the master control monitor, checks warp reactor plasma flow rates against energy conversion levels, nods approvingly::
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
CTO:  Alpha team is ready to go at a moments notice for a boarding part on the Mainstream
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
::sitting in her chair waiting::
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
TO: Noted.  Have them take two medic trained people with them.
SO_Ens_McGavin says:
CO: Still no sign of the Romulan’s Sir.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
SO: That means that the second ship has disappeared too?
OPS_Smythe says:
::Checks to see which quarters are on reduced power and which are on full shut down.  Sends the information to the Captains private screen::
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
CTO:  Already done...::goes back to staring at his console monitoring the sensitive areas::
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
::taps in her answer to OPS console::
CSO_Sojyngra says:
::returns to the bridge after a routine regulation safety check of all hazardous materials in the labs that are now unoccupied::
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:

CSO_Sojyngra says:
::walks up to the SO and starts looking at the readings::
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
<Reese>  MacLeod:  Reactors 1 thru 20 are online at 100 percent.  Reactors 21 thru 30 are in ready stand-by.  Captain needs more power she'll have it in seconds.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
OPS: Take off line all unoccupied quarters and channel the power into the reserves.  I have a feeling we are going to need it.
OPS_Smythe says:
CO: Aye, Captain ::works her board:: Done, Captain
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
Reese:  Outstanding.  Just keep you eye on them.
SO_Ens_McGavin says:
CO: I should rephrase that sir, there is still no sign on the missing Romulan vessel.
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
CO: I ran a tachyon sweep already and I came up with nothing
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
<Reese>  MacLeod:  Like a mother watching her babies.
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
::gives Reese a crossways look, before cracking a smile::
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: A gut feeling, Captain?
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
CTO: You could say that.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
CO/CTO: I trust her gut feelings.
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
ALL: I'll second that
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: Understood.  ::looks at the main screen::  FCO: I trust the Captains gut too ::grins at T'Ponga::
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
CTO: If we didn't trust our captain, we'd all be in trouble, Commander.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
All: Well I am glad that we are in agreement.
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
CO: I am sure I speak for all of us when I say we will follow you into Sto-Vo-Cor and beyond.
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
FCO: You said a mouthful there.  CO: It's good manners to agree with the Captain.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
CO: She's right about that, Captain. ::smiles::
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
All: I am glad that you think of me that way.  For all we know I could be leading you to your deaths.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
CO: We'd all go down with you, Captain, I'm sure.
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
CO: Captain we all knew that was part of the job when we joined Starfleet.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
ALL: Yes if it was justified and right now I have a hunch we are on a wild goose chase.
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: Considering that the Captain in question has a Bat’leth and knows how to use it....  ::glances at the board, the main screen and back to her old friend::  That's always a possibility
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
SO: Any more on those birds out there?
Host Susan says:
ACTION: Long range sensors indicate a Romulan science vessel moving into position near the Neutral Zone.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
::can't shake the feeling about being on a goose chase::
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
CO: Captain...I got a contact on LRS.
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
:: a soft beep:: CO: Same here Captain.  Seems to be a Romulan science ship.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
Out loud; What is this they don't learn from the first two ships they lost.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
OPS: Hail the science vessel.
SO_Ens_McGavin says:
CO: Sensors have acquired a new target near the Neutral Zone. It appears to be a Romulan science vessel sir.
OPS_Smythe says:
::sitting straight in the chair, marveling at the way the rest of the senior bridge crew all talk to each other, just like they do on Gamma shift::
SO_Ens_McGavin says:
CO: Life signs are weak on the life forms aboard the Mainstream.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
FCO: Push it.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
CO: Pushing, Captain, but how hard?
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
FCO: Put her in the red.
OPS_Smythe says:
::Starts slightly:: CO: Aye  ::opens a channel and uses the standard hail::
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
*EO*: Seamus we are going to push the engines into the red. Watch them.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
CO: Aye Captain, but you know my husband will KILL me if I mess up his engines. ::increases speed to the danger zone::
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
*CO*:  Aye Captain.  
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
FCO: Don't worry about the engines.  Seamus can deal with it.
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::Scans the Romulan ship::
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
CO: I'm sure he can, Captain.
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
ALL in Engineering:  All-right people, eyes on your monitors, anything so much as starts to go off on you, lock it off and switch to back-ups
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
TO: How were your sweeps?
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
::is anxious to get to the area::
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
Reese:  Reese!
OPS_Smythe says:
::Listens for a reply::  CO: Captain, they are answering our hail.
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
CO: Still clean...for now
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
OPS: Good on screen.
OPS_Smythe says:
CO: Aye  ::touches a control:: On screen now, Captain.
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
<Reese>  MacLeod:  On it.  Ramping up reactors 21 thru 30...  Charging phaser capacitors to level one.  Charging main reactor shielding.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
::looking at the Romulan on the view screen::
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
Romulan: Are you nuts?  If you continue your present course the outcome will be death.  Stay away.
Host Susan says:
<N'Var> COM: DJ: This is the Science Vessel N'Var, I'm Sub-Commander Brosch, and we are investigating the disappearance of 2 crews and one vessel.
OPS_Smythe says:
::watches the Romulan on the screen::
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
CTO: I am showing a charging on phaser capacitor one....you see that?
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
TO: Where?  :;looks at the readout::
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
::eyes fly over the status displays::  Self:  Come on big D.
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
CTO: Unknown...::looks at the CO: :CO: Sensors clear.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
COM: Sub Commander Brosch: This is CO Shemara Arca, the last ships in there were suddenly devoid of life except for two individuals.  Both ships suffered the same fate.  If you go in there you will lose all your people.
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
CO: Nothing other then the two ships on LRS.
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::nods:: TO: I see it now.  Notify engineering.  We'll keep an eye on it.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
*EO*: Seamus the torque sensors are off again.  This time by .08 microns. Correct it quickly.
SO_Ens_McGavin says:
::Continues to scan the vessels::
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
Self: Come on big D fly baby fly.
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
*CO*: I can compensate for it.
OPS_Smythe says:
::gulps and tries to cover her nervousness::
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
*EO*:I am showing a charge on Phaser Capacitor One....find out why and report back to me.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
::hangs as she flies the ship at breakneck speed::
Host Susan says:
<N’Var> COM: Don Johnson: We understand that, Captain. We have currently downloaded the logs from both Romulan vessels. From what we have been able to determine, it appears that the Federation ship is the source of the problem.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
::looks at the screen::
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
*TO*:  Understood.  ::looks to Hick and points:: 
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
COM: N'Var: You sure?  We were under the impression that some type of anomaly was the reason.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
::raises an eyebrow at the sub commander’s comment and looks at the captain for her reaction::
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
FCO: Watch how close we get.  Keep us outside of their range.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
CO: Aye, Captain.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
CTO: Any ideas?
Host Susan says:
<N'Var> COM:: DJ: There is nothing in the logs from either of our vessels to indicate that. Only when offering aid to the Federation vessels, did our ships encounter problems.
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
<Hicks>  ::moves to Reese::  Reese:  You charging phasers?
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
SO: Run a scan on that Romulan ship.  I want to know what is on it.
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
::tries to get a bio reading on the Mainstream...not the life signs but the Mainstream it's self::
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
<Reese>  Hicks:  Just to level one, makes for a faster full charge should it be needed.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
COM: N'Var: Why are you downloading the logs?
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: None that pop out at me.  ::both eyebrows are up::
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
::rubs chin::
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
<Hicks>  Reese:  That’s not really procedure.
SO_Ens_McGavin says:
CO: Aye sir.  ::Tries running a detailed scan on the Romulan science vessel::
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
<Reese>  Hicks:  Trust me, if a firefight, you'll want phasers sooner rather than later.
SO_Ens_McGavin says:
Self: Not much there.
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: Although there could possibly be something to it.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
All: Something is out of place here.
OPS_Smythe says:
::listens but keeps her attention on her board and the screen::
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
CO: I just complete a Bio Scan of the Mainstream on a hunch came up with nothing.
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
<Hicks>  ::moves back to MacLeod::  MacLeod:  I think Reese just got a little anxious, he's charged the capacitor to level one.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
CTO/TO: Beef up your security sweeps and fix the internal sensors to sweep for all bio signs and bio dampeners.
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: Maybe all of this has something to do with the two survivors.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
TO: Then where are the old man and the baby?  They were still supposed to be on the Mainstream.
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
::nods to Hicks, knowing full well the practice, especially during combat operations::  *TO*:  Engineering to Lemmick.
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
CO: Understood sir.
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: On it, Captain  ::taps a command::
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
*EO*:Go Ahead MacLeod.
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
*TO*:  Sorry Lieutenant, one of my guys just jumped the gun.  He’s charged the phasers to level one.  I can power them down if you like.
Host Susan says:
<N'Var> COM: DJ: We are trying to determine what course of action our people took when contacting the Mainstream.
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
::looks at Reese::
SO_Ens_McGavin says:
CO: Nothing out of the ordinary on the science vessel. Standard science equipment and minimal armament.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
COM: N'Var: My advice is to keep your distance till we arrive and then between the two of us we can figure out what happened.  I don't want any more unnecessary deaths on both sides.
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
*EO*:No...leave it. Just next time make sure they go through proper channels and follow procedure. Give them a copy of the DJ Handbook...Lemmick Out.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
FCO: How far out are we now?
Host Susan says:
<N'Var> COM: DJ: Captain, We will continue to approach and will remain 10,000 KM from the Mainstream.
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
CTO: Found out what the Capacitor Charge was...seems an Engineer jumped the gun and upped  the phasers to level one of charge level. I told Macleod to leave them that way but to make sure his staff asks before doing.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
COM: N'Var: Understood remain 10,000KM from the Mainstream.
EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
::smiles at Reese::  Reese:  There's a handbook?  All:  Anyone see a handbook!? 
Host Susan says:
<<<<<<<<<<< Time Jump on final approach for to the NZ >>>>>>>>>>>

::listening for any subspace traffic or other unusual 'noise'::
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
COM: N'Var: This is CO Shemara we are on final approach to the Neutral Zone.  Will come up alongside you and please don't get any wild ideas please.  I am not in the mood for it.  I want to find out what happened to the ships compliment of the Mainstream and the two Romulan ships that lost their crews.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
FCO: Wonderful news.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
SO: Do that voodoo that you do so well.
SO_Ens_McGavin says:
::Scanning the area::
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
CO: Alpha Team ready for AT Duty at your command.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
CO: Maybe we can get to the bottom of this now.
Host Susan says:
<N'Var> COM: DJ: We have you on scans, Captain. We will transmit our findings.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
TO: Understood.  Wait for the information from the other ship.  We  may need EVA suits.
Host Susan says:
ACTION: The DJ is receiving a transfer from the N'Var.
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::sees the debris and starts scans on it::
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
CTO: That Romulan captain is being overly helpful.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
COM: N'Var: Thank you for your aid.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
TO: Yes he is and I hope it is well justified.
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
TO: When you are scared you do odd things
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
CTO: That is so true.
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO/TO: And I think he is scared.
OPS_Smythe says:
CO: Incoming transmission, Captain.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
CTO: Even at this range I can sense it.  Something has him scared.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
OPS: On my panel.

::Raises an eyebrow::
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
CO: Aye sir...we'll assemble in Transporter Room 1
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
*EO*: Seamus, Make me proud son. I need bio containment fields all over the ship especially in sickbay.
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
TO: Be careful over there.  Stun only, heavy stun if needed.
TO_Lt_Lemmick says:
CTO: We'll all come back...promise you that.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:

EO_Ens_MacLeod says:
*CO*:  Aye Captain, we'll put up force fields in all sensitive areas.
Host CO_Shemara_Arca says:
FCO: I need you to make sure the transporter buffers are calibrated for any virus that may come through.  I don't want this bug on this ship.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
CO: Aye, Captain, I'm on it!
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::sends message to Alpha team to get the bio-hazard suits ready and on::
