Mission Summary 11303.14
The USS Don Johnson was informed of a tragedy at the Risan Meeting and are currently en route to Earth after some disturbing imagery made itself available to their new Counselor.
A prophecy that leads to the end of the Federation, certainly disturbing not to just the crew of the USS Don Johnson, but possibly, to the entire cosmos.

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

FCO_LTjg_Quinn says:
::on the bridge, at the helm, monitoring course and speed::

CSO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Sitting at her station, turned to look at the screen and all those in the area.::

ACTION: The Federation communication network is flooded with information on the Vrao, cluttering all normal traffic and overloading the Don Johnson's communication subsystems.

CO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
::sits behind his desk in the Ready Room::*XO*:Join me...::sips on coffee::

XO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::looking over TO_Norris's shoulder::  TO_Norris: Looks good.  Keep an eye on those sensors as we go.  ::hears the comm, looks up::  *CO* On my way

FCO_LTjg_Quinn says:
::notices an intermittent navigational data-link warning on his board::

XO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::walks to the ready room door, stops just close enough to set the chime off::

CO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
XO:Come....

CSO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
FCO:  I guess they were not able to keep the Vroa under wraps as much as they had hoped.  Given the disaster at Risa, it was a bit beyond their ability.

XO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::After the doors open all the way, she steps in, moving towards Lemmick::  CO: You wanted to see me?

CO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
XO:Take a seat Commander...care for a cup of coffee? ::stairs at the padd in-front of him::

EO_Lt_Garlingus says:
::buzzes about the engine room working out maintenance for the next few weeks trying to keep as many spare parts on hand as possible::

XO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: No thanks, coffee never has liked me ::grins as she sits down::

FCO_LTjg_Quinn says:
CSO:  All I know is all this extra comm traffic is messing with my uplink with Starfleet, I might just crash the ship into Starbase one at this rate.  ::smirks::

CO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
XO:Thoughts....on Risa and this prophecy?

CSO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
FCO:  I would prefer you do not.  You would be giving our engineer more work and that might just mean me as well.  He did not take me up on the last offer, however.

XO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::leans back in the chair::  CO: I've been out here too long to know better than to ignore things like this ::winces slightly at a memory of a Borg::

FCO_LTjg_Quinn says:
::grins back at the CSO::

CO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
XO:We both have Boss Lady ::sips on his coffee as well:: and right now my guy is saying this doesn't boat well for us

XO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: We can't discount the information we received, but I don't think that we shouldn't also keep some healthy skepticism.  ::grins slightly::  I know I just now came across of giving you a non-answer

FCO_LTjg_Quinn says:
::makes a slight course correction to clear some space traffic that was going to pose a proximity issue::

CSO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
FCO:  I am surprised, if we are part of this prophecy, we have not yet heard what are part is to be... or not to be.  It would appear we are one of a few ships.

ACTION: A tremor can be felt from bow to stern of the ship.

CO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
XO: Did.....::stand up and walks out to the bridge:: FCO: All stop

CSO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
FCO:  I have heard rumor that someone has placed a bounty on four of the crew members of the USS Claymore to prevent them from succeeding in their prophecy.

XO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: Truthfully........* ::trails off as she feels something::  That isn't a good sign

FCO_LTjg_Quinn says:
::quick stops helm::  CO:  Aye sir, helm answering all stop

XO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::follows Lemmick out to the bridge::

CSO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Turns toward her station.::  *CE*:  Engineering, what is your status?

CO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
*EO*:Frank....what was that?

FCO_LTjg_Quinn says:
CSO:  Maybe we're about to find out our part in all this

EO_Lt_Garlingus says:
::hears multiple comms:: *Bridge*: Hello Bridge, nice of you to call.  All systems reading green across the board here, check your external sensors.  Did that pilot run over a targ or something?

CO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
*EO*:Run a level 3 diagnostic on the propulsion systems and Inertial Dampeners...we are dropping anchor until we know what is going on.

CSO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
*EO*:  I do not believe Targs have the ability to survive in outer space.  However, I will be sure to inquire the FCO if he did and if so, I presume you will have Targ for dinner.

XO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::moves to stand behind Quinn::

CO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
FCO:Did the nav sensors show anything unusal?

CSO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
:: As she speaks, her eyes run through the sensor data.::

EO_Lt_Garlingus says:
::waves his hands at the multiple comms:: *CO*: Aye aye Captain, on it right away.  *CSO*: Acknowledged Commander, thank you! ::heads off to assemble several engineering teams::

CO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CSO: What about the Long range sensors? Anything unusual?

EO_Lt_Garlingus says:
CEO: Commander, the bridge just called, that tremor they felt... They think it was us.

CEO_LtCmdr_On says:
EO: Okay, Lt.

FCO_LTjg_Quinn says:
CO: Nothing registered sir, maybe a slight gravimetric distortion to port, but its pretty weak, I don't think it would account for what we felt.

EO_Lt_Garlingus says:
::pulls together a list of people on a padd:: CEO: Do you want to take the engines or the inertial dampening field generators? ::hands the padd to the CEO::

CSO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
CO:  Sensors show nothing. Narrowing field of area and increasing magnitude of general area.  :: taps some controls as she talks.::

XO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: If it wasn't the engines and wasn't something outside of the ship, then that kind of narrows down the search to the interior of the ship or the ship itself

CO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CSO: Focus on that gravimetric distortion to port....XO: Care to take your old station?

CEO_LtCmdr_On says:
:: receives the padd and takes a look ::EO: We need to take care of the engines first

XO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: Aye  ::moves over to TAC1 as Norris moves to TAC2::

CO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CSO/FCO: Could it have been a cloaked ship?

CSO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
CO:  External sensors are picking up traces of tacheon approximately 500,000 km directly astern.

FCO_LTjg_Quinn says:
CO: pretty small ship, like I said, it was pretty weak

CO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
XO: To be safe go to yellow alert and raise shields.

XO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: Yellow alert, aye  ::taps a control to sound yellow alert::

EO_Lt_Garlingus says:
::nods:: CEO: Aye sir.  ::takes an engineering kit and heads to the port nacelle:: CEO: I'll take a team and go aft.

FCO_LTjg_Quinn says:
::checks his nav consoles to make sure they switch to yellow alert mode::

CO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CSO:Can you get any ID and how small?

XO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::a soft beep sounds from the console::  CO: Captain, internal scans are showing random elevations of tachyons in random sections of the ship

CO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
::sits down in his chair::XO:How random? ::looks towards the XO::

CO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
XO:Think they could be Vroa's?

CSO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
CO:  Very small, captain.  I am uncertain what the object is, but it was small enough nav sensors did not pick them up any more then my sensors.  Hence the deflectors had no affect.  Consider it more like background noise.  :: continues narrowing the field of sensors and making adjustments to focus on what it could be.::

CO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CSO/XO:Come up with a way that our deflectors will be effective...I don't want them to get on board this ship.

XO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: Fairly random.  Seems to be more stray readings than any set patterns.  As for it being Vora..............  I can't rule that out 100%, but we also cannot afford to get paronoid about them, either

CSO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
CO:  Due to the size, we will need to return to the location for me to be able to discern what we are dealing with.

CO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
XO:Understood...non the less...until we know for certain. Let's bump it up a notch....::grins at the XO:::

XO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: Understood  ::taps some commands in her console::

XO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::Sounds the red alert, but mutes the alarms sound on the bridge::

EO_Lt_Garlingus says:
::hears the red alert klaxons and returns back to main engineering:: *Bridge*: I assume we have ruled out ship's systems as the cause for this issue?

CO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
::reaches behind his seat and holsters his weapon::All:Okay...until we know and can explain these readings...duty shifts are extended. 

FCO_LTjg_Quinn says:
::checks his nav consoles as they switch to red alert mode, evasive and tactical maneuvers pre-load into the standby nav system::

CO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CSO:How far back?

CSO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
CO: 500,000 km, sir.

CSO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
*EO*:  For the moment.

CO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CSO:Send Quinn the co-ordinates....FCO:Engage at 3/4 impulse...engage when ready.

FCO_LTjg_Quinn says:
CO: Aye sir.

EO_Lt_Garlingus says:
::activates video communication between the main viewer and his console:: *CSO*: You know, you guys need to let us know what's happening down here.  We're not mind readers... well, okay, some of us are.  

CSO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
:: nods and sends the coordinates.::

CEO_LtCmdr_On says:
EO:  Do you think we need to run a level 3 diagnostic at the engines and also the systems?

FCO_LTjg_Quinn says:
::enters the co-ordinates, sets speed and engages at 3/4 impulse power::

CO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
XO:Let's lock down the bridge and all essential area's as well. All:Any suggestions you have or anything unusual you see bring it to me or Commander Fowler. No matter how small. What happened on Risa is not going to go un-answered...we will do out part to make sure those that died did not die in vain. 

ACTION: As the Don Johnson begins to make its way closer to the source of the tacheons the Starfleet comm traffic seems to dissipate.

CSO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Keeps a lock on the area, fine tuning the sensors as they go.::

CO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
All:Understood?

XO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: Aye.  ::tells Norris to pass the word to Security::

EO_Lt_Garlingus says:
::closes the bridge link:: CEO: No sir, I think they just need to communicate better.

CSO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
:: locks down her area, so that only she is able to access it and anyone of higher command.::

CEO_LtCmdr_On says:
EO: And if we send a buoy to increase our chances of communication?

EO_Lt_Garlingus says:
CEO: I don't think the bridge crew would appreciate a probe...

CEO_LtCmdr_On says:
EO: Exactly a probe...That's it

CO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
XO:Make sure we send Alpha team to Main Engineering and Beta to the Main Computer Core....

CO_Cmdr_Lemmick says:
CSO:Anything yet?

XO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
CO: They are on the way already as is team Omega to sick-bay

CSO_Cmd_So`tsoh says:
CO:  Working on it...
