Mission Summary 11401.30

The USS Don Johnson is en route to the Hayraman system, minutes prior to arrival.
Detailed analysis of the comm static has been inconclusive, but enough data has been collected that a comparative analysis may be possible with more data.
All stations have received relevant intelligence on the Romulan separatist faction to brief the crew on their upcoming diplomatic mission.
However, the USS Don Johnson's have been refitted to the latest as sourced directly from R&D.
All indicators show that the Romulans at Hayraman have detected the approach of the Starfleet vessel several hours ago.

FCO_LT_Quinn says:
::makes a slight course and speed adjustment to remain on target.::  CO: Closing in on Hayraman system.  Optimal warp to sublight transition three minutes, Commander

CEO_LtCmdr_Telarus says:
:: gets up to go check out the core::

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
:: nods in response to Tobias ETA::  OPS:  Send our greetings to the Romulans as well as a request to visit.  I am sure they know we are in the area by now.

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
CSO/CTO:  Commander On, Lieutenant Ki... anything of interest on the sensors?

ACTION: The USS Don Johnson arrives to the Hayraman system.

CSO_LtCmdr_On says:
CTO/CO: The sensors don't show nothing out of the ordinary. All is alright at the moment.

FCO_LT_Quinn says:
::places warp drive interface into ready-mode, quickly checks proximity sensors, and compares the lay of the land with the latest navigation updates from Starfleet::

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
:: The system looked like any other from this point of view... and apparently sensors agreed.::

CTO_Lt_Ki says:
CO:  Nothing so far that we didn't already know.  I'll run a new set once we drop out of warp

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
:: simply nods in acknowledgement she had heard.::

CSO_LtCmdr_On says:
CTO: Lt, since we are treating with Romulan keep an eye open

ACTION: Three Romulan heavy cruisers can be seen on long range sensors turning and approaching the coordinates of the Don Johnson on an intercept course.  

CTO_Lt_Ki says:
CO:  Romulan ships incoming.

OPS_LtJg_Donovan says:
CO: Looks like we've got company. No response to the hail.

FCO_LT_Quinn says:
::proximity sensors alert::  CO: We have incoming bandits, Commander.  Three Romulan Heavy Cruisers.

CEO_LtCmdr_Telarus says:
:: notices tactical sensors in engineering::

CTO_Lt_Ki says:
::tries to determine if their weapons are armed::

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
CTO: Take the ship to yellow alert, but keep a non-aggressive stance.

CSO_LtCmdr_On says:
CO: Captain, The long sensors shows that three Romulan heavy cruisers are on course in intercept our ship!

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
:: for Tobias' ears only:: FCO:  Have a nice flight path for us out of here?

FCO_LT_Quinn says:
::pre-selects evasive maneuvering protocols, and offensive tactical inter-link with the ship's tactical station::

CTO_Lt_Ki says:
CO:  Aye.  ::activates yellow alert::

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
All:  Please remember, we are the intruders here.

CTO_Lt_Ki says:
CO:  The Romulans are armed and defended.

OPS_LtJg_Donovan says:
CO: There's communications between the incoming ships, but it's nearly impossible to make out what it is. We haven't cracked their codes.

CTO_Lt_Ki says:
::begins to calculate if they can take them all in a battle::

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
CTO:  Fire only in defense.  Increase power to shields.

FCO_LT_Quinn says:
CTO: Lieutenant Ki, you have tactical helm control priority.

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
OPS:  Work on trying to decipher it.

OPS_LtJg_Donovan says:
CO: I'll do my best.

CTO_Lt_Ki says:
FCO:  Thank you.

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
OPS:  Continue trying to make contact.

CSO_LtCmdr_On says:
*CEO*: If you need to take more power to the shields take it from the sensors array.

ACTION: The lead Romulan cruiser opens a hailing frequency, audio only.

OPS_LtJg_Donovan says:
::begins creating a character conversion set theory algorithm based on what they do know, and lets the computer run:: CO: This could take time, which I doubt we have the luxury of. ::frowns::

Coltdak says:
@COMM: Don Johnson: This is the war ship Shinizar. You are far from home, state your purpose.

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Looks at Donovan::  OPS:  A work in process.  For now, put the call on speaker.

CEO_LtCmdr_Telarus says:
*CO*: Aye doing it now

CTO_Lt_Ki says:
::pauses to listen::

OPS_LtJg_Donovan says:
::puts the communications in the process of the deciphering attempt on speakers::

OPS_LtJg_Donovan says:
CO: It's running now

CSO_LtCmdr_On says:
:: listens ::

CEO_LtCmdr_Telarus says:
:: balances power::

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Starts to introduce herself as Commander, catching herself just in time.::  COMM:  This is captain So`tsoh of the Federation ship the Don Johnson.  We have been asked to make contact with you in a diplomatic role.

Coltdak says:
@COMM: Don Johnson: And what diplomatic role is that, Captain So`tsoh of the Federation ship Don Johnson?

CSO_LtCmdr_On says:
:: thinks I hope the Captain plays the cards right ::

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
COMM:  Emissaries.  Our government has, of course, learned of you and would like to know more.  You can understand why that might be.

CTO_Lt_Ki says:
::frowns as he looks over the results of the simulation::

CSO_LtCmdr_On says:
CO: The Romulan Ships will be visible on short range sensors shortly within 50,000 km

Coltdak says:
@COMM: Don Johnson: And if your government has informed you poorly, and our wish is to be left alone? What then Captain So`tsoh?

CEO_LtCmdr_Telarus says:
:: reads about sensor tech data detecting cloaked ships::

CEO_LtCmdr_Telarus says:
Self: if I modify the algorithm to set a recursive wave pattern...

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
COMM:  I trust my government.  However, the right to be left alone is yours.  At the same time, would it do any harm in meeting with us and allowing us to learn more about you... information that is correct?

Coltdak says:
@COMM: Don Johnson: Harm... What an interesting word.  Slow your engines to an all stop.  Lower your shields and prepare to be boarded.  We will inspect your ship and your crew prior to allowing you to proceed further into our space.

CEO_LtCmdr_Telarus says:
:: applies algorithm changes and commits data connection to tactical read out::

ACTION: The tactical console lights up with faint readings of possible cloaked ships flanking the Don Johnson's starboard side at the same distance as the approaching vessels.

CSO_LtCmdr_On says:
*CEO*: There are a possibility of cloaked ship around us, run some tachyon sweeps in order to determinate where they are?

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
:: motions OPS to cut the comm.::

OPS_LtJg_Donovan says:
::cuts the comm::

OPS_LtJg_Donovan says:
Co: Oh boy. Here we go.

CTO_Lt_Ki says:
CO:  If we engage them in battle, we will be defeated.

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Turns to the others::  CTO:  Do we know what we are facing?

CEO_LtCmdr_Telarus says:
*CSO* working on it

CTO_Lt_Ki says:
CO: They will board us eventually whether we cooperate or not.

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
All:  You have a few minutes to make sure everything that should be kept secret is kept that way.

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
:: turns back to the screen.::  FCO:  Bring us to a stop.

CEO_LtCmdr_Telarus says:

OPS:  Inform all departments of the situation.

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
CTO: My son should be doing his homework about now.

OPS_LtJg_Donovan says:
CO: Sending out a shipwide communique.

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
CTO:  Lower sheilds.

OPS_LtJg_Donovan says:
::alerts all departments::

CEO_LtCmdr_Telarus says:
:: begins to encrypt the computer core, all primary system access and secondary system dependencies::

FCO_LT_Quinn says:
::uses maneuvering thrusters to keep the DJ oriented towards the Shinizar::

CSO_LtCmdr_On says:
CO/CTO: The lead ship stops in an aggressive position a few kilometers off the port bow!

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
CTO:  Send an honorary detail to meet our guests.

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
CSO:  Keep scans passive.

CSO_LtCmdr_On says:
CO: Aye; Captain.

CSO_LtCmdr_On says:
:: Keeps scans passive ::

CTO_Lt_Ki says:
CO:  I've got teams scattered throughout the ship.  When they materialize we should be able to contain them quickly.

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
CTO:  Send the honory guard to the main shuttle bay.

CTO_Lt_Ki says:
CO:  With your permission I'll join it.

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
CTO:  Granted

Coltdak says:
@::finds the Federation protocols in the shuttle's computer directory and initiates docking sequences:: Self: How verbose... ::reads the script:: COMM: Don Johnson: Shuttle Bay Operations this is Shuttle 1-1-Alpha of the Shinizar, requ... I am docking.

CTO_Lt_Ki says:
::leaves his station and enters the turbollift::

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
COMM: Coltdak:  Acknowledged.  My chief of security will be meeting with you to guide you to the bridge.

CTO_Lt_Ki says:
::sends a squad of 20 heavily armed security officers to the shuttlebay::

Coltdak says:
@COMM: So`tsoh: Excellent Captain! I am pleased you have agreed to cooperate. ::removes his hands from the controls and allows the shuttle bay computer to tie into his and guide him in:: 

CTO_Lt_Ki says:
::exits the turbolift and springs down the corridor::

ACTION: Internal sensors pick up elevated neutrino emissions localized throughout the ship.

CEO_LtCmdr_Telarus says:
 :: looking for power fluctuations and system breaches::

CSO_LtCmdr_On says:
CO: Internal sensors detect a elevate neutrino emissions in the ship

Coltdak says:
::steps off the shuttle as his is the first to land and watches as the other four are expertly piloted in and parked:: 

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
CSO:  Guests.

CEO_LtCmdr_Telarus says:
*CO*: Sensors are picking up flooded levels of neutrino emissions.

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
OPS:  Inform Ki... though he is ready for this.

CTO_Lt_Ki says:
::enters the shuttle bay and steps toward the one who appears to have authority::

OPS_LtJg_Donovan says:
::sends a text only message to Ki::

OPS_LtJg_Donovan says:
CO: Message sent.

CEO_LtCmdr_Telarus says:
*CO*We can flood with low levels of tachyons

Coltdak says:
::looks towards the Lieutenant and sees the squad of heavily armed Starfleet soldiers:: CTO: I am Admiral Coltdak, I know you...

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
*CEO*:  Be prepared, but wait.

CTO_Lt_Ki says:
Coltdak:  You must be mistaken.

CEO_LtCmdr_Telarus says:
*CO*: Aye. :: redirects and recalibrates dish::

CTO_Lt_Ki says:
::wonders how many will be left here to guard their shuttles::

Coltdak says:
CTO: You possess some of my latinum... Perhaps you would like to speak in private.  Soon, soon... I wish to speak with your Captain.

CTO_Lt_Ki says:
*CO*:  The Romulans are requesting to meet you.

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
*CTO*:  Bring them to the bridge.

OPS_LtJg_Donovan says:
::looks pensivly at the captain::

CTO_Lt_Ki says:
Coltdak:  Follow me please.

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
OPS:  If we are going to do this, we need to do it right.

OPS_LtJg_Donovan says:
CO: Understood.

Coltdak says:
::looks around the room as the Romulans have gathered around him pointing at the ones to stay, and exchanging looks with the supervisors:: CTO: My teams will begin a deck by deck search of your ship for contraband and anything ... dangerous.  I will come with you to the bridge, with only one guard.

CTO_Lt_Ki says:
Coltdak:  And my teams will accompany them, matched in equal strength.

CO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
:: A touch of wryness fills her eyes as she looks at Tobias.::

Coltdak says:
::looks unamused at the CTO:: CTO: Why Lieutenant, you will do what you will.  We are not here to commandeer your ship, unless we are displeased with the results.  In which case it would be prudent of you to cooperate and live.

CTO_Lt_Ki says:
Coltdak:  There is no need for threats.  You will find our Captain a reasonable woman.::guides Coltdak and his guard to the turbolift::
