Mission Summary 10903.12

The USS Don Johnson is at a dead stop.  Crewmen are waking up or recovering slowly from the sudden stop after the max warp hurtle toward Bajor's sun.  

Questions to find answers to:  Are we alive? Where are we?  How are we going to get home? Now what?

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Resume Mission >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

CO_Cmdr_Newell_McPhee says:
::sits up from where she fell when the ship suddenly stopped::

OPS_Ens_Truus says:
::lying unconscious on the bridge::

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
::moves slowly:: CO: Captain...you all right?

CO_Cmdr_Newell_McPhee says:
XO: I'm a little beat up, you?

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::Stands up from where she landed, right in front of the CO and XO:: CO/XO: You two okay?  ::a good sized goose egg is on her forehead::

CEO_LT_MacLeod says:
::in main engineering, picking self off the deck, helps others get up::  ALL:  All-right people lets assess our status.  Lieutenant Ebanez check if anyone needs medical assistance.

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CO: Still in one piece I guess. Guess it was a lot more of a sudden stop. CTO: Yeah Chief...try to get the sensors online and find out where we are.

CO_Cmdr_Newell_McPhee says:
::slowly rises from where she was sitting:: CTO: I'm all right.

EO Ebanez says:
:;jokingly:: CEO:  You mean besides myself.

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::Gets up wobbles just slightly, helps the captain up::  XO: On it

OPS_Ens_Truus says:
::grunts as he slowly rouses and tries to get his bearings. Realizing he's still on the DJ, he sighs, almost relieved:: 

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
::slowly gets up and presses a control::*Sickbay*:Medical Teams to the bridge

CEO_LT_MacLeod says:
::looks at the void where the DJ's warp core once stood::

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::makes her way to her station, taps some commands and reads the messages on the screen::

CO_Cmdr_Newell_McPhee says:
::looks at the OPS officer rising:: OPS: You okay, Ensign?

OPS_Ens_Truus says:
CO: Ask again in five seconds... how's the ship?

EO Reese says:
  ::Approaches the CEO, rubbing his head::  CEO:  Mommy, I don't want to go to school today.  ::cracks a smile::

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
*CEO*:Status?

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
XO/CO: Aid stations are swamped, injuries shipwide and sickbay is filling up  ::reads some more:: No deaths listed so far

CEO_LT_MacLeod says:
Reese:  You got nothing else to do.  ::motions::  Git.

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CTO: Good...let's hope there is none.

CEO_LT_MacLeod says:
*XO*:  Picking up the pieces down here, Commander.  But it looks like all emergency measures have kicked in.  We've got aux. power.

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
XO: I hear you there Commander

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
*CEO*:How long till we can get the core back online?

CO_Cmdr_Newell_McPhee says:
OPS: We appear to be dead in the water right now.

OPS_Ens_Truus says:
CO: Great. ::smirks:: Is there any way I can help?

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
*CEO*:Thrusters or Impulse?

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::taps more commands to get both short range and long range sensors up and running::

CEO_LT_MacLeod says:
*XO*:  Won't know that until we can retrieve it, and assess its condition.  But it likely took some damage, that'll have to be seen too first.

CO_Cmdr_Newell_McPhee says:
OPS: Man your station. Unless you have some medical training and can help out in sickbay.

CEO_LT_MacLeod says:
*XO*:  Sorry sir, we've got thrusters for now, I'll need about fifteen minutes to restore impulse.

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: Captain, sensors are showing that we're between Bajor and its sun.  We succeeded ::last said under her breath::

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CO: Engineering reports we have aux power only at this point. Warp is a questionable thing...we have to retrieve the core and asses it before we can determine if we can get it back.

OPS_Ens_Truus says:
::has no such training, though he could sure use it right now. His head is pounding:: CO: Aye sir... ::sits at his station and begins checking logistics, power readings, etc.::

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
*CEO*:Get on it...are we in any condition to try to orbit Bajor??

CEO_LT_MacLeod says:
::turns to Hicks::  Hicks:  Mister Hicks, run a diagnostic on the impulse drive.  From fuel source to exhaust.

CO_Cmdr_Newell_McPhee says:
XO: I figured we wouldn't have warp yet.  But auxiliary power is the best we can do.

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::checks the long range sensors again::  CO: Captain, I can't find the warp core ::taps some more commands, fine tuning the sensors::

CO_Cmdr_Newell_McPhee says:
CTO: You can't find it?  Tweak the Long range sensors, it's gotta be out there somewhere or its remains anyway if it's destroyed.

CEO_LT_MacLeod says:
::puts his face into his hands and rubs his eyes::  Self:  Note to self, never do that again.

EO Hicks says:
CEO:  Sir, impulse drivers check out, but fuel flow has been pinched off, we'll have to reroute.

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: I'm tweaking, Ma'am.  ::her frustration begins to show a little bit:: It's just not out there ::glances at Newell-McPhee:: But I'm still tweaking Captain

CEO_LT_MacLeod says:
Hick:   All-right, head up a damage control team, get us back online, ASAP.

CO_Cmdr_Newell_McPhee says:
CTO: I know you are, even as I said it.  You do your job well, Commander.

EO Hicks says:
 ::nods and spins about on his heal, walking off::

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CTO: Try to search for the core locater signal

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
XO: Already did that.  Nothing

OPS_Ens_Truus says:
::taps his forehead:: Self: Okay... now what...

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
XO/CO: It's like it just vanished.  Or is at least 'dead' to our sensors

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CO: Suggest we launch a couple shuttle to spread out and search for it...With the status were in we might not be able to pick up the core

CO_Cmdr_Newell_McPhee says:
OPS: Ensign, notify Bajor that we've had a problem and we'll be there as soon as we can.

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CTO: Its metallurgical signature...try to scan for that.

CO_Cmdr_Newell_McPhee says:
XO: Do it.

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
XO: Scanning  ::trails off as she works::

OPS_Ens_Truus says:
CO: Yes sir. Sorry sir... ::feels a bit disoriented but does as asked.:: COM: Bajor: This is the USS Don Johnson. We've had a mechanical failure and might take longer than planned to get there...

CEO_LT_MacLeod says:
::moves to the master control console and calls up the monitor logs of the DJ's warp reactor system, looking for a reason for the malfunction::

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::smacks her console on the lower corner showing her frustration:: XO: Nothing....again

CO_Cmdr_Newell_McPhee says:
::smiles:: CTO: Hitting the console won't make the warp core show up, but I know it helps with frustration.

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::grins back:: CO: True, but it is much better than smacking crew members

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CTO: Care to take a ride Boss?

Bajor OPS says:
COM: Don Johnson:  Understood.  ::the sound of shuffling can be heard:: Don Johnson?  We have no record of your pending arrival.

EO Ebanez says:
::administers first aid to an engineer with a deep cut to his forehead::

OPS_Ens_Truus says:
COM: Bajor: We were told you had some political troubles and were asked to come mediate.

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
*CEO*:Away team duty...Shuttle bay 1.

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
XO: Are you driving? ::winks::

Bajor OPS says:
COM: Don Johnson:  Political troubles are an everyday circumstance.  We have no need of outside help, at least not more that what we're already getting from the station.

CEO_LT_MacLeod says:
*XO*:  Aye sir.  Reese:  Reese, you're the man until I return.

EO Reese says:
CEO:  Aye sir.

OPS_Ens_Truus says:
::glances briefly at the Captain, but already knows what to say:: COM: Bajor: Be that as it may, we're still gonna have to dock there. Our ship... and crew... are in need of repairs.

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
::enters the bay a short time later:: CTO: Yes I am going to drive...problem?

CO_Cmdr_Newell_McPhee says:
::nods at the OPS:: OPS: Yes, we are.

CEO_LT_MacLeod says:
::enters the shuttle bay shortly after the XO::

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
XO: Oh, no problem.  We're going to have a medic with us right

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::TO Norris covers TAC 1 and continues to scan for the warp core::

CEO_LT_MacLeod says:
::approaches the XO and CTO::  XO,CTO:  Sirs.

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
::laughs and sits at the pilots seat::*CO*:We ready.

Bajor OPS says:
COM: Don Johnson:  We can aid with supplies, not sure what other aid we can give. 

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::nods at MacLeod::

CO_Cmdr_Newell_McPhee says:
*XO*: Understood, Godspeed, Commanders.

OPS_Ens_Truus says:
COM: Bajor: Got any spare warp cores? ::smirks and tries not to chuckle::

ACTION:  OPS sees a flashing light on her console, indicating a communications error between the ship and the nearest time/space beacon.

CEO_LT_MacLeod says:
::takes a seat::  CTO:  We going fishing for our core?

CO_Cmdr_Newell_McPhee says:
OPS: I doubt they have spare warp cores. ::grins::

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
@::lowers the bay doors and then punches it full throttle::

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::sits in the co-pilot seat, straps in:: CEO: That's the hope

OPS_Ens_Truus says:
::blinks and tries sending the same message again::

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
@CEO: Any idea on how we can find it?

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
@CEO: Both long range and short range sensors keep telling me that the warp core isn't anywhere near us

ACTION:  The error repeats, time/space beacon shows date to be shortly after the acquisition and renaming of Deep Space 9.

OPS_Ens_Truus says:
*Away team*: Little problem here... we're having a comm error with this beacon... looks like just after DS9 was taken over by the Federation.

CEO_LT_MacLeod says:
XO:  should be able to scan for its resonant energy signature.  It should be venting a bit of plasma as well, so if we find that, we can follow the crumbs.

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
@*OPS*:Say what Ensign?

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
@::Raises an eyebrow at the message::

CO_Cmdr_Newell_McPhee says:
OPS: What did you say, Ensign?

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
@::brings the shuttle to a full stop::

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
@::Mutters softly:: Just what we need, a visit from the T.I. people ::hopes that they aren't doing any time travel::

CO_Cmdr_Newell_McPhee says:
*XO*: It appears that there's a communications error with the time/space beacon.

OPS_Ens_Truus says:
All: Looks like it's in the right place, but the computer doesn't seem agreeable to communicating with it.

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
@*CO*:That's not good.

CO_Cmdr_Newell_McPhee says:
OPS: Wonder if our warp core ejection had anything to do with it.

CO_Cmdr_Newell_McPhee says:
*XO*: No, it's not.  I just don't want you all to be stuck in the past or something.

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
@XO: I'm glad that you're driving now Commander

OPS_Ens_Truus says:
CO: I don't see why it would. I suspect these 'political troubles' might have somethin' to do with it.

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
@CTO: Scan for any temporal distortions or anything

EO Hicks says:
 ::Works with his team to reroute the fuel lines to the impulse engines:: 

CO_Cmdr_Newell_McPhee says:
OPS: Maybe that's why Bajor has no record of us coming.

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
@XO: Aye, ::taps the console in front of her:: scanning now

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
@CEO: Could the warp core have caused this?

OPS_Ens_Truus says:
::scratches his head::

CO_Cmdr_Newell_McPhee says:
OPS: I thought about telling you to ask Bajor what the Stardate was.  But never mind.

CEO_LT_MacLeod says:
@XO:  Not by itself.  Maybe in conjunction with an anomaly such as a sub-space rift, maybe.

OPS_Ens_Truus says:
CO: Maybe we don't have to ask them... Computer, state the current Stardate.

ACTION:  Computer replies with the date from the beacon.

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
@::Both brows furrow and her forehead wrinkles slightly:: XO: So far all I'm reading is that the beacon is correct.  ::glances up at Lemmick:: And no, no warp core either

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
@CEO: Could we adapt a couple of the warp cores from the shuttles to work with the ships systems?

CO_Cmdr_Newell_McPhee says:
OPS: Well that's no good.  So we're already in the wrong time, or at least the beacon is.

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
@CEO/XO: Too bad that DS9 doesn't have any good tug shuttles

OPS_Ens_Truus says:
CO: Should I ask Bajor?

CO_Cmdr_Newell_McPhee says:
OPS: It wouldn't hurt.

CEO_LT_MacLeod says:
@XO:  That's something we could try, sir.

OPS_Ens_Truus says:
::makes a religious gesture roughly analogous to crossing oneself:: ... COM: Bajor: What's the current Stardate?

ACTION:  Bajor confirms the beacon's time.

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
@::sets course back for the ship::

OPS_Ens_Truus says:
Self: Ah great...

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
@::Keeps the sensors working, scanning as they go::

CO_Cmdr_Newell_McPhee says:
OPS: Well now we know.

OPS_Ens_Truus says:
CO: Yeah, but what do we do? At this point in time, they're still under the Cardassians' heel. They aren't gonna help us, at least not freely.

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
@*CO*:Requesting permission to dock Captain?

CO_Cmdr_Newell_McPhee says:
*XO*: Permission granted, Commander.

CO_Cmdr_Newell_McPhee says:
OPS: We'll figure something out.

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
@::sets the shuttle down nicely and gently:: CEO: Use anyone you need...take as many cores as you need...get us home.

CEO_LT_MacLeod says:
@XO:  Aye sir.

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CEO: You think it will work?

CEO_LT_MacLeod says:
::crosses his fingers::  XO:  Ask me when I'm done, sir.

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::sighs as she follows Lemmick and MacLeod out::

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CEO: Do what you need Lieutenant.  Let me know when you’re done.  I'll brief the captain.

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
@CTO: See...at least my driving improved

CEO_LT_MacLeod says:
::nods to the XO, then heads off::

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
XO: Maybe we'll get lucky and not have this show up on T.I.s radar.

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
::laughs:: CTO: Yeah...sure...you really think so?

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::Grins:: XO: Well we can hope.  There’s just something about those T.I. Agents..... ::trails off::

OPS_Ens_Truus says:
Self: And here I was looking forward to shore leave..

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CTO: Commander? ::grins::

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
XO: Hmmm?

CEO_LT_MacLeod says:
::reaches main engineering::  Reese:  Report.

XO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
::shakes his head as the lift slowly makes it way to the bridge::

CO_Cmdr_Newell_McPhee says:
OPS: We'll figure something out. We have to.

ACTION:  Operations picks up reports concerning attacks on merchant vessels.

OPS_Ens_Truus says:
CO: Sir, you might wanna have a look at this. ::shows her the aforementioned reports::

EO Reese says:
CEO:  Hicks' team is still working on rerouting the fuel lines to the impulse engines, we're still blind on decks 14 to 18.  But apart from that, everything is still holding together.

CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
XO: I'm okay.  Really.  It's just I guess people in special agencies can tend to be ::pauses as if thinking:: irritating at times
