FCO: Can you raise anyone else on the AT?

SO_K`Nargh says:
@::follows the XO out and back into the unstable ship::

EO_Leasha says:
@::Looks at Dref::  Dref: Commander Dref ??

CTO_Ahkileez says:
@ ::lengthens his stride, staying ahead of Black's group, his manner in fight mode now::

FCO_Croft says:
CO: I can try a general call..

Host CO_Winters says:
FCO: Do it.

CIV_Benson says:
@::powers up the shuttle::  COMM: Scimitar: This is Ens. Benson preparing to disembark and head back.

TO_DuPont says:
@::Orders the computer to autostart the shuttle, waits for the CSO to board the shuttle and closes the doors::

FCO_Croft says:
*Any Member of the Away Team* This is Ensign Croft aboard the Scimitar, report in please.

ENV_Heaton says:
@CIV: All teams are ready to depart, sir

CMO_Varesh says:
@::scans mentally for the two officers::

CSO_Danann says:
@::climbs in and settles herself at the science console, logs in::  TO: Ready when you are... ::mutters:: and not a second too soon!

EO_Leasha says:
@::Doesn't hear anything from Commander Dref and slowly makes her way over to the main Systems to see if they are working ::

CSO_Danann says:
@ ::shivers again::

XO_Black says:
@*EO*: Keep talking to me Ensign... can you determine what Commander Dref's situation is...?  ::moves further and glances at the CMO::  CMO: Doctor, seems we got some work for you after all...  ::crawls through some narrow pathways, up to Main Engineering::

TO_DuPont says:
@::Turns in his seat to face the CSO:: CSO: Are you ok?

CIV_Benson says:
@ENV: Very good lifting off  ::fires thrusters and lefts off::

OPS-Exeter says:
@*FCO*: Aye, this is John Exeter, what can I do for ya??

CMO_Varesh says:
@::gives Black a slightly un-amused look and nods:: XO: So it seems...

XEN_El_Aziz says:
::using the opportunity to familiarise herself with the few files on the absolutely fascinating Taq'uah technology::

CSO_Danann says:
@::raises eyebrow in surprise at the question:: TO: Fine... ::can't think of anything else to add, so she just nods once::

EO_Leasha says:
@*XO*: Just in side ::shivers:: the entrance Sir there are no consol to stop the Main core shutdown I’m not sure how much time we have left ::shivers and does not say anything else::

FCO_Croft says:
*Ops* Could you provide me with a status report of the away team ?

CTO_Ahkileez says:
@ ::follows the spot of his wrist light through the narrow passages:: Self: Blasted ship architecture.. who designed their ships, elves?

CIV_Benson says:
@::sets course to head back to the scimi::

SO_K`Nargh says:
@EO: are you ok?

TO_DuPont says:
@::Stares at the CSO for a second longer before returning the nod and checking the start-up sequence on the shuttle::

CMO_Varesh says:
@::follows:: *EO*: Ensign, have you checked the Commander?

EO_Leasha says:
@*XO* Sir ::shivers:: I estimate about 9 minutes though

XO_Black says:
@::suppresses a faint smile and scans ahead with his eyes::  All: Let's keep a quick pace gentlemen...  we don't have much time...

ENV_Heaton says:
@::on board of the shuttle doing some last checkups on his padd::

SO_K`Nargh says:
@::picks up pace and follows the XO::

XO_Black says:
@*EO*: Don't worry Carla...we'll be with you shortly...

OPS-Exeter says:
@*FCO*: Okay, TO,CSO,CIV,ENV and MO are heading back too the ship. I'm waiting here on the XO,CMO and SO who are searching for EO and Cmdr Dref.

EO_Leasha says:
@*CMO* Sir, he’s unconscious under a large piece of rubble I don't know if he’s alive!

FCO_Croft says:
::looks back to the CO and raises an eyebrow::

CTO_Ahkileez says:
@ ::tries to read the unfamiliar signage, making assumptions on what they might mean:: XO: I think it's this way. ::points his light to the larger passage::

FCO_Croft says:
*Ops* Why was the Scimitar not informed of this sooner?

OPS-Exeter says:
@*FCO*: Oh yeah and the CTO is with the XO group, sorry

CMO_Varesh says:
@*EO*: Then assume he is. Can you check his vital signs for me?

EO_Leasha says:
@:walks back over to the commander holding her arm and trying to pull another bit of rubble::

CSO_Danann says:
@ ::wonders what that look was about. Feels like she should probably make conversation. has never been good with small talk though:: TO: Em...I'm glad you were there when the doc fell. no way I could have got to him on time myself... ::checks her readings::

XO_Black says:
@::nods at the CTO and quickly moves along with him::

Host CO_Winters says:
::frowns at the FCO::

EO_Leasha says:
@*CMO* I can try Sir

FCO_Croft says:
CO: I'll make the shuttlebay ready to accept the returning members of the away teams.

OPS-Exeter says:
@*FCO*: Too be honest I'm just the Operations Officer, that's XO's job not mine. And the fact that we had some trouble with communications!

CMO_Varesh says:
@::follows the rest of the team::  *EO*: Test his pulse at the jugular, the junction between the jaw line and the neck.

Host CO_Winters says:
FCO: At your discretion, Ensign.

EO_Leasha says:
@*CMO* Yes Sir ::kneels down next to commander Dref and checks for a pulse feeling the pain shoot up her arm::

SO_K`Nargh says:
@::walking beside the XO imagining what they might find inside::

CIV_Benson says:
::coming in on final approach::  COMM: FCO: We are coming in Mr. Croft

CTO_Ahkileez says:
@ ::comes to doors that are obviously important:: XO: I think we're here.

FCO_Croft says:
*Ops* It's the job of every away team member to keep the ship informed of their goings on, should they be significant. Keep that in mind, Lieutenant

CMO_Varesh says:
@XO: Sir, we had better get there soon...

TO_DuPont says:
@::Shrugs with his back to her :: CSO: I guess some StarFleet training rubbed off on me! ::takes the conn and lifts the shuttle off the landing padd heading towards the shuttle bay opening::

FCO_Croft says:
*Ops* Try to keep us updated of further details. Scimitar out.

FCO_Croft says:
::closes the comm without waiting for a response::

OPS-Exeter says:
@*FCO*: And if We have problems with communications then it's not possible, Ensign!

EO_Leasha says:
@*CMO* Sir there is a pulse

ENV_Heaton says:
@::can't wait to get back on the scimitar::

Host CO_Winters says:
::nods at the FCO:: FCO: Well handled, Ensign. Perhaps a little harsh... but ...

CSO_Danann says:
@ ::smile a little:: TO: Lets hope you're as competent a pilot, then...I’d like to get back in one piece...

OPS-Exeter says:
@::mutters something about a black eye::

CMO_Varesh says:
@*EO*: Good. We'll be there soon.

SO_K`Nargh says:
@::wonders why he was brought on this mission to help find the missing 2 members: self: what can I do?

FCO_Croft says:
Comm: Shuttle1: The shuttlebay doors are open. Please inform me once you have docked.

FCO_Croft says:
CO: Thank you, sir.

XO_Black says:
@::stops at the CTO's location::  CTO: I think so as well.. ::grabs one the tools out of his AT equipment bag and attaches it to the door::  CTO: All Right then..  ::pulls it hard, trying to open the doors manually::

CIV_Benson says:
::seeing the shuttlebay doors he pilots the craft into the hold::

EO_Leasha says:
@::Doesn't answer the comm, just sits by the commander knowing there’s nothing else she can do::

SO_K`Nargh says:
@XO: want me to help pull the door?

TO_DuPont says:
@::Laughs:: CSO: I took piloting as my secondary major, so I should be a safe and able bet to get you back to the Scimitar!

CMO_Varesh says:
@::stands ready to dash through the doors to get to his patients::

XO_Black says:
@::nods at the SO::  SO: By all means... ::sees the doors open, bit by bit::

CTO_Ahkileez says:
@ ::adds his muscle to the effort and pulls one of the blast doors far enough apart for them to slip through:: XO/SO: Let's hurry!

FCO_Croft says:
::Ticks off a list of personnel who have now returned to the Scimitar::

CSO_Danann says:
@::laughs a little:: TO: You are gracious! ::sounds lightly sarcastic::

SO_K`Nargh says:
@::helps to XO push on the door, his muscles bulging from his arms when he does::

CIV_Benson says:
::settling down the shuttle in gentle bump::  *FCO* Shuttle is secure

CMO_Varesh says:
@::adds his strength to open the doors::

SO_K`Nargh says:
@XO: I think its going sir

FCO_Croft says:
*ShuttleBay*: Flight Crew, refuel and clean the shuttle. Have another prepared just in case.

TO_DuPont says:
@::plots a course back to the Scimitar and engages at half impulse once they are clear of the shuttle bay::

Host SM_Nick says:
ACTION: The door moves a little.

EO_Leasha says:
@::Looks down at commander Dref::  Dref: Well I think that maybe them ::knows he will not answer ::

FCO_Croft says:
*CIV* Understood.

CIV_Benson says:
::opens the back door so everyone can leave::

FCO_Croft says:
CO: Would you like the Away team to report to the bridge?

Host CO_Winters says:
FCO: Sounds like we'll make an Operations Manager of you yet.

Host CO_Winters says:
FCO: As long as they're cleared by Medical.

CIV_Benson says:
*CO*: If I’m not needed at the moment Sir, I’ll like to get back to TIC and start processing the data collected

FCO_Croft says:
CO: Understood.

CMO_Varesh says:
@::mutters under his breath while trying to pry the doors open.::

SO_K`Nargh says:
@::keeps on pushing on the door with all his might, but fatigue is starting to creep up on him::

CSO_Danann says:
@::takes a few final readings of the outer hull, especially that gel stuff holding the thing together::

TO_DuPont says:
@::Does a tactical scan of the area::

XO_Black says:
@CTO, SO: Good...keep it up !  ::pushes harder::

SO_K`Nargh says:
@XO: Aye, Sir

FCO_Croft says:
*CIV* Mr. Benson, please report to the bridge with all senior members of your team for debriefing, once you have been cleared by medical. Junior members are to return to their normal duties.

CTO_Ahkileez says:
@ ::grinds his teeth as he exerts himself more than he has in a long time to open the door:: Self: Ugh!

CMO_Varesh says:
@::squeezes through the small opening in the door and pulls out his tricorder::

Host SM_Nick says:
ACTION: The door opens enough to get Dref and Leasha out

SO_K`Nargh says:
@::with one final push the door opens::  Self: Thank god

CSO_Danann says:
@::wonders how Zef is doing, if he's been fed enough today::

EO_Leasha says:
@::looks up and sees someone but they don't register to her at the moment::

XO_Black says:
@::almost loses his balance as the doors open far enough::  All: Let's move in..  CMO: Doctor.. get to Commander Dref...  SO: Hold position here and keep this door open..  CTO: Follow me... ::moves in::

CMO_Varesh says:
@::scans Dref::

CIV_Benson says:
*FCO* understood on my way

FCO_Croft says:
*CIV* Bridge out.

XO_Black says:
@::quickly moves over to the EO::  EO: Let's go Ensign...

SO_K`Nargh says:
@::stands at the door and trying to keep it open, but slowly its starting to close back down::

SO_K`Nargh says:
@XO: Please hurry and try and get them out, I don’t know how long I can keep this open

CTO_Ahkileez says:
@ ::ducks a venting pipe and looks through the smoke and dust for the two officers::

CIV_Benson says:
ENV: Proceed with your duty's and download all information into the TIC computer I’ll be on the bridge

CMO_Varesh says:
@::mumbles:: Self: Extreme pressure, multiple fractures and contusions... a few weeks in sickbay.

EO_Leasha says:
@::is a little confused and looks up:: XO: Yes Sir ::Goes to get up feeling pain rip through arm ::

TO_DuPont says:
@::Brings the shuttle in towards the Scimitar shuttle bay::  COMM: Scimitar: This is the shuttle Cochran requesting permission to land

ENV_Heaton says:
::exits the shuttle:: CIV: Yes sir

CIV_Benson says:
::checks in with medical officer in the shuttlebay before heading for the bridge::

CMO_Varesh says:
@::looks up:: XO: Sir, he's in bad shape, and once we release the pressure on him, we have a very short time to get him to the ship.

SO_K`Nargh says:
@::in a worried tone:: XO: sir, quickly get them out of there its closing on us

CTO_Ahkileez says:
@ ::shouts over the alarms:: EO: Where's Dref?

EO_Leasha says:
@::starts to walk to the door and looks back at the commander hears the CTO and answers quietly::  CTO: With the CMO I guess sir

FCO_Croft says:
Comm: Cochran: You've been cleared for docking in the main shuttlebay. Please clear yourselves up with medical, and have the senior staff members of your team report to the Bridge when you are done. Croft out.

CMO_Varesh says:
@::pulls off the debris that he can manage::  CTO: I need some help over here!

CIV_Benson says:
::after getting a clean bill from the doc I head for he nearest TL::

XO_Black says:
@::supports the EO standing::  CMO: Understood, Doctor...  CTO: Lieutenant... help the Commander...  ::brings the EO out of ME to the SO::

ENV_Heaton says:
::passes trough medical and rushes to TIC::

TO_DuPont says:
@COMM: FCO: Understood

CSO_Danann says:
@::taps the side of her console rhythmically::

SO_K`Nargh says:
@XO: We don’t have much time get Dref out of there now

TO_DuPont says:
@::turns in his chair to the CSO: CSO: You heard that?

SO_K`Nargh says:
@EO: are you ok?

CSO_Danann says:
@ TO: heard what? :stops tapping::

CMO_Varesh says:
@CTO: We need to get this piece off his midriff, and then we can get out of here. ::indicates a largish piece of bulkhead::

EO_Leasha says:
@::walks out supported::

CIV_Benson says:
::the TL stops off at the bridge and exit and walk in::

CTO_Ahkileez says:
@ ::hops a fallen railing and stoops over Dref:: CMO: Stand back, sir. ::slips his hands under the rubble and crouches down, bracing before he lifts with his legs, moving the bulkhead:: Grab him, quick!

XO_Black says:
@::glances at the SO::  SO: We're doing our best, Ensign...  ::heads back in and helps the CTO and CMO lift::   CMO, CTO: Now pull him away !

OPS-Exeter says:
@::looks at Console then grabs a rifle and walks out the shuttle::

CMO_Varesh says:
@::pulls Dref from under the rubble and picks him up in a fireman's lift:: CTO: Come! ::heads for the doors::

Host SM_Nick says:
ACTION: Dref is pulled clear.

ENV_Heaton says:
::enters TIC after a fast run and starts downloading all data into the computer::

TO_DuPont says:
@CSO: Physical at sickbay, and then senior staff to report to the bridge

XO_Black says:
@CTO: Help the CMO carry Dref... I'll help the EO..  ::runs out, supports the EO once again and heads back to the shuttlebay..

CMO_Varesh says:
@::hurries along the passages back to the shuttle bay::

CTO_Ahkileez says:
@ ::follows Varesh, grabbing him by the back of his uniform to steady him as they run full tilt::

SO_K`Nargh says:
@::just as Dref is pulled clear the door closes:  Self: AHH  ::falls down::

TO_DuPont says:
@::Brings the Cochran into the main shuttle bay and lands her nice and gently::

CSO_Danann says:
@::shivers:: TO: Think they'll let me away with not having one?...I was only there a few weeks ago...

CTO_Ahkileez says:
@ ::shouts at K'Nargh:: SO: Stop sleeping, Klingon!

CIV_Benson says:
CO: Captain  ::takes a pos and a computer console::

EO_Leasha says:
@::Leans on the XO::  XO: Sir I’m sorry it just happened

XEN_El_Aziz says:
::sees data, huge, insane amounts of data scroll down on her screen and yelps quietly::

SO_K`Nargh says:
@CTO: Sleeping, the door almost crushed me

Host CO_Winters says:
CIV: How did it go, Ensign?

XO_Black says:
@::shivers as he runs along back to the shuttlebay::  *OPS*: John, we're on our way back...be prepared...

SO_K`Nargh says:
@::gets up and runs after the CTO::

TO_DuPont says:
::Shuts down the shuttle and again shrugs:: CSO: I guess they want to check us out

FCO_Croft says:
::turns around in his chair, keen to hear the report as well::

EO_Leasha says:
@::runs ::

SO_K`Nargh says:
@::trips::  self: ARGH

CIV_Benson says:
CO: It could have been much better if we were able to keep life support running a little longer: pauses:: are they out yet, it's got to be freezing by now

SO_K`Nargh says:
@::gets up and starts to run even quicker::

OPS-Exeter says:
*XO*: Got ya, Brian. :;runs back into the shuttle and  start pre-flight procedure::

CMO_Varesh says:
@::keeps going, thinking of putting Dref on a diet::

CSO_Danann says:
::groans:: TO: Suppose we all have to bear something... ::can't quite remember the way that phrase went::

XO_Black says:
@EO: Don't worry about it Ensign... these things happen..  ::mumbles:: a lot...  ::enters the shuttlebay one again, glancing behind his back to see if everyone is following him::

CTO_Ahkileez says:
@ ::carefully paces himself so he doesn't leave the rest behind::

SO_K`Nargh says:
@Self: I don’t know if I can make it ::starts to limp but still running::

EO_Leasha says:
@::enters the shuttlebay feeling the pain like its never been before ::

CSO_Danann says:
::stands up, shuts down her console and makes her way out of the shuttle::

TO_DuPont says:
::Opens the shuttle's door and starts passing over the weapons from the armoury to a security squad, while looking at the CSO perplexed:: CSO: I have no idea what you mean...c'mon they can’t all be that bad the 'hypo addicts' ::grins::

SO_K`Nargh says:
@::sees the shuttle bay in the distance::

Host SM_Nick says:
ACTION: As the Away team run/limp/charleston, they notice the computer systems die - shutdown in progress.

CMO_Varesh says:
@::sees Black entering the shuttle bay and dashes into the hanger, straight for the shuttle::

XEN_El_Aziz says:
::tries to understand at least a fraction of the data in front of her, but only catches the occasional glimpse, such as the favourite pets of the head of the government::

Host CO_Winters says:
FCO: How are the others doing?

OPS-Exeter says:
@::replicates some rum for the crew::  Self: they might need that.

FCO_Croft says:
CO: Perhaps we should look into mounting a rescue team. The Kuroc has enough Environmental suits for an entire away team.

EO_Leasha says:
@::enters the Shuttle and collapses in to a seat::

FCO_Croft says:
CO: I've still not been able to make contact with them, sir.

XO_Black says:
@::enters the shuttle and places the EO in one of the chairs in the back::  OPS: Let's go John.. ::shivering::

SO_K`Nargh says:
@self: Uh oh ::worried look on his face and tries to pick up speed::

Host CO_Winters says:
FCO: Have them on standby.

CMO_Varesh says:
@::gets into the shuttle and lies Dref on the floor, starting to treat him::

CSO_Danann says:
::helps the security team on the outside::  TO: The what? ::looks bemused::

SO_K`Nargh says:
@XO: Hold on

SO_K`Nargh says:
@::enters the shuttlebay and climbs aboard::

FCO_Croft says:
CO: Understood.

CIV_Benson says:
::hearing the commotion he gets his answer, he turns around and assesses the TIC computer to see how the process is coming around::

ENV_Heaton says:
::looks for anything special in the data::

SO_K`Nargh says:
@::falls on the floor breathless and with a gash on his leg:: self: ARGH

OPS-Exeter says:
@ALL: Replicated some Rum, so If I where you better use it too get the blood flowing again!  ::starts up the impulse drive and then checks  laid in course::

XO_Black says:
@::pulls the CTO and SO in and taps the controls to close the doors::

EO_Leasha says:
@::Sits in the shuttle very uncomfortable and very, very Quiet::

CMO_Varesh says:
@::loads a hypospray, and pumps Dref full of drugs::

XEN_El_Aziz says:
::blinks as she thinks there's data about the official ambassadorial Taq'uah underwear on the screen, but it's gone too fast::

TO_DuPont says:
::Hands the last of the rifles over to the security squad:: CSO: Well there's this rumour of a Lt.Cmdr in StarFleet who earned the nickname of 'Cold Hands' I'm just thankful we seem to have some warm blooded medical staff

OPS-Exeter says:
::Flies the shuttle out as if it was second nature::

CTO_Ahkileez says:
@ ::sits heavily, looking down at the gash in K'Nargh's leg:: SO: It's only a flesh wound.

CIV_Benson says:
::looking over what data they have right now:: CO: This is very interesting information captain

SO_K`Nargh says:
@::in a quite voice::  XO: Thank you

EO_Leasha says:
@::Slowly drifts in to unconsciousness properly unnoticed::

SO_K`Nargh says:
@CTO: doesn’t feel like one ::smiles::

Host SM_Nick says:
ACTION: As the Miz'nareal starts to shut down completely, the shuttle springs into action and bursts out into the nebula

FCO_Croft says:
CO: I have the last shuttle on sensors, just made it into the Nebula.

Host Taq`fan says:
::enters the bridge and stands silently at the back::

CSO_Danann says:
::shrugs:: TO: well, you know what they say, Cold Hands, Warm Heart... ::casts an eye on the main console to see how her DL is going::

XEN_El_Aziz says:
::thinks about that underwear and blushes furiously::

Host CO_Winters says:
FCO: Inform the away team I want that information brought straight here ::feels a shiver go up his spine for some reason::

CTO_Ahkileez says:
@ ::glances at the med kit on the shuttle's wall:: SO: Do you want me to look at it? Or wait until someone less likely to nail it back together can fix it?

OPS-Exeter says:
@::flying the ship closely too the Scimitar::  Comm: Scimitar: Shuttle Daystom, requesting permission too dock.

CIV_Benson says:
::notices the avian come in:

XO_Black says:
@::places his hand on the SO's shoulder::  SO: You did good, Ensign...  ::moves back to OPS and taps the comm controls::  COM: Scimitar: CO: Captain, we've cleared the Miz'nareal with everyone aboard...  Commander Dref is hurt bad though...we need sickbay all prepared for medical transport...

SO_K`Nargh says:
@::slowly stands up and sits down on one of the chairs::  CTO: If you could I would appreciate it

EO_Leasha says:
@::is happily out cold and very unconscious::

CMO_Varesh says:
@::scans Dref::  XO: I need to call the ship to make preparations for the Commander's arrival.

FCO_Croft says:
Comm: Daystrom: This is the Scimitar. You are cleared for docking at your own convenience. Please have all no injured senior staff members report to the bridge immediately upon docking. Croft out.

TO_DuPont says:
::Hands over his tricorder to the CSO:: CSO: Will you download mine as well please?

XO_Black says:
@::looks at the CMO::  CMO: Just signalled them to get sickbay ready...  how is he ?

Host Taq`fan says:
::walks down to Winters::  CO: Captain, I humbly request a moment of your time.

OPS-Exeter says:
@::nods and starts Docking procedure ready too fly the shuttle in::

SO_K`Nargh says:
@XO: Thank you sir

FCO_Croft says:
::turns around to acknowledge he's carried out the Captain's orders and notices Taq'fan in the back::

CSO_Danann says:
::reaches over and takes the tricorder:: TO: Got it... mines almost finished... ::taps the console again as she waits::

CMO_Varesh says:
@XO: In a bad way. ::hands him his tricorder:: Can you give this to whomever needs it. Its the data I got off the ship.

Host CO_Winters says:
Taq: Ambassador? This isn't a good time.

Host Taq`fan says:
CO: This is the only time.

ENV_Heaton says:
::monitors the Miz'nareal::

Host CO_Winters says:
::takes a deep breath::

Host CO_Winters says:
Taq: What is it, Ambassador?

FCO_Croft says:
*Sickbay* Ensign Croft to Sickbay, the Away Team is bringing back wounded. Have a medical team on standby.

Host Taq`fan says:
CO: I must speak with you privately.

CTO_Ahkileez says:
@ ::grabs the kit off the wall and opens it, scanning through the contents before removing a hypo of painkiller and a bandage::  SO: This might sting some. ::applies the hypo to the Klingon's arm and then slaps the bandage on the cut after ripping the pant off above it and wiping it clean of purplish blood with a cloth::

XO_Black says:
@::takes the tricorder from the CMO::  CMO: No Problem....  ::looks concerned at Dref::

CSO_Danann says:
::hums to herself, glad she back on a ship she can trust::

Host CO_Winters says:
FCO: You have the bridge, Mr. Croft. 

SO_K`Nargh says:
@CTO: thank you sir, I appreciate it

TO_DuPont says:
::Watches the CSO as takes his tricorder and leans against the door:: CSO: Happy to be back on board? Was the landing to your comfort?

CMO_Varesh says:
@::glances up:: CTO: Thanks, I have my hands full... ::looks to Black::  XO: Medical beam out as soon as we are back on the ship... if that is possible.

Host CO_Winters says:
Taq: We'll go to my ready room, but if anything happens out here it takes priority.

Host Taq`fan says:
CO: Captain, this is the priority.

OPS-Exeter says:
::flies the Shuttle in and docks it::  ALL: Okay, last and final stop, the place some call home!

CIV_Benson says:
Self: strange bang

Host CO_Winters says:
Taq: With all due respect Ambassador, I'll decide that as and when necessary. ::motions the Ambassador to the RR::

ENV_Heaton says:
::sees the Miz'nareal shutting down::

Host Taq`fan says:
::enters the ready room::

SO_K`Nargh says:
@CMO: Umm, the EO kind of passed out, I think she need some attention as well

FCO_Croft says:
::nods at the CO and acts completely unfazed, as if him being in command of the bridge is only natural::

CTO_Ahkileez says:
@ ::smiles a little::  SO: It's nothing. ::nods at Varesh and sits back, replacing the medical kit on the wall and making a mental note to have this kit restocked::

Host CO_Winters says:
::follows the Ambassador::

XEN_El_Aziz says:
::breathes a little sigh of relief when the Captain disappears from the bridge::

CIV_Benson says:
*ENV* is everything in order down there Mr. Heaton

FCO_Croft says:
::gets up and takes the CO's chair onboard the Scimitar for the first time, not letting his joy show on his face::

CMO_Varesh says:
::turns to his other patient:: XO: Ensign Leasha must come too... I have to treat her for shock and the rest.

XO_Black says:
::nods at the CMO and accesses the shuttle's transporter controls, beaming the CMO, Dref and EO to sickbay::

Host Taq`fan says:
::doesn't sit::  CO: Captain, I have contacted my government.  Their intelligence sources tell me that a pair of Kinwe fighters are already en route to our position.

CIV_Benson says:
FCO: Lucky you , you just get here and already taking the chair

OPS-Exeter says:
::Looks at the XO:  XO: Okay, where needed in some Meeting room!

CSO_Danann says:
::shrugs as she loads the next batch of files for download:: TO: I've seen better ::smirks;: and yes, I’m much happier here...::looks up:: that place had a horrible creepy feel to it, didn’t it? ::says nothing about why she thought it was creepy::

Host CO_Winters says:
::follows the Ambassador's lead and stands himself::

FCO_Croft says:
::looks at the ready room and suddenly becomes unsure of leaving the CO alone with the Ambassador::

SO_K`Nargh says:
::his leg starts to feel a lot better::

CMO_Varesh says:
::the last of his sentence is spoken as he appears in Sickbay:: Med Staff: I need the operating theatre prepped. Commander Dref goes in now!

Host CO_Winters says:
Taq: And you waited until we were in here to tell me?

TO_DuPont says:
CSO: I guess abandoned ships can be spooky

ENV_Heaton says:
*CIV* Yes sir, everything is fine down here. I also have to report that the Miz'nareal is totally shut down sir.

FCO_Croft says:
CIV: For your information, Ensign, I was posted as a Cadet to the Scimitar, and I have served on her for three full months as an Officer ::has his very snooty voice on::

Host Taq`fan says:
CO: I didn't want to alarm your crew.  Their ETA is....30 minutes.

CSO_Danann says:
TO: Hmm...yea... ::shivers again. Sees her batch are finished, and starts on TO's files:: TO: where do you want these?

XEN_El_Aziz says:
::getting lost in huge amounts of data, now scrolling through a text on religion-based piercings::

CMO_Varesh says:
MO_Painless: Treat Ens. Leasha... I'll be in surgery for a while. ::walks off without waiting for an answer::

TO_DuPont says:
CSO: Tactical database

Host CO_Winters says:
Taq: Given your knowledge of their capabilities, would you suggest staying or leaving the area?

XO_Black says:
::turns to OPS::  OPS: Sorry, Lieutenant ?

FCO_Croft says:
::raises an eyebrow as he looks at sensors::

CIV_Benson says:
*ENV* very good  ::gets a beep on the TIC display::  FCO: one moment  ::scans::

Host Taq`fan says:
CO: We must remain and complete this mission, Captain - that information is vital to the survival of our systems.

OPS-Exeter says:
::looks on his console::  XO: Where needed on the bridge, sorry Brian. 

Host CO_Winters says:
Taq: That isn't what I asked you.

EO_Leasha says:
::is still out cold in Sickbay::

CMO_Varesh says:
<MO_Painless>  ::starts scanning Karla, treating the contusions and fractures she sustained.::

CIV_Benson says:
FCO: I have 2 small scout crafts coming in…

FCO_Croft says:
*CO*: I'm detecting two small Scout vessels of an unknown configuration on an intercept course. Sir. ETA, 30 minutes. Orders?

Host CO_Winters says:
*FCO* Stand by, Ensign.

XO_Black says:
::nods at the OPS::  OPS: All right...  let's get going..   SO: Follow us to the bridge, Ensign... ::smiles and quickly heads out of the shuttle::

CSO_Danann says:
TO: OK... ::knew that, wanted a more specific location, sets up a directory herself then starts the download to it:: TO: It'll be a second... ::looks around the shuttlebay through the shuttle window::

CIV_Benson says:
FCO: Intel says they the Kinwe,  not good 30 minutes out

CMO_Varesh says:
::enters the surgery and starts scrubbing up:: Med staff: Monitor his vitals, and get that scanner up.

Host Taq`fan says:
CO: We must stay

SO_K`Nargh says:
::follows the XO wondering what will happen next::

CTO_Ahkileez says:
::trails behind the other men, having some difficulty calming himself down::

XEN_El_Aziz says:
::ears perk up at the mention of the Kinwe::

CIV_Benson says:
*ENV* monitor those ships and relay any info you get from them

FCO_Croft says:
CIV: Are you sure of this?

OPS-Exeter says:
::walks out of the shuttle waits for the SO then heads for the bridge::  XO: Mind if I ruff the FCO up a bit??

Host CO_Winters says:
Taq: ::sighs:: I see. Very well.

TO_DuPont says:
::Glances down at the shuttle's tactical sensors and spots the 2 incoming scout vessel::

CIV_Benson says:
FCO: they match the data we have on them I double checked my self

Host CO_Winters says:
::leaves back for the bridge, not waiting to see if the ambassador has anything else to say::

ENV_Heaton says:
*CIV* Aye sir ::starts monitoring the ships::

CSO_Danann says:
::notices TO's expression:: TO: got something?

Host Taq`fan says:
::follows the Captain back on to the bridge, especially pertinent as he has nothing else to say::

FCO_Croft says:
CIV: Get to the TIC, and report in when you get there. Begin bringing our tactical systems online and brief the fighter squadrons on Kinwe ships. Dismissed.

TO_DuPont says:
CO: Sir we have 2 scout ships on a direct intercept course with the Scimitar

CMO_Varesh says:
::starts working on the fractures and broken ribs::

FCO_Croft says:
::Gets up and gives the CO the chair back::

XEN_El_Aziz says:
::tries to melt into her console as the captain enters the bridge::

CIV_Benson says:
FCO: Yes sir  ::he gets up and heads for the TL::  *ENV*: get the pilots assembled

FCO_Croft says:
CO: The two ships seem to be of a Kinwe configuration. Shall I call for Red Alert?

XO_Black says:
::glances at the FCO as he enters the nearest TL::  OPS: Wait till this situation is over... ::as everyone has entered the TL:: TL: Bridge !

TO_DuPont says:
CSO: I need to get to the bridge, I chat with you latter ::rushes out of the shuttle and heads towards the nearest TL at a dead run::

SO_K`Nargh says:
XO: What is going on sir?

XEN_El_Aziz says:
::winces as the yellow alert is called out::

TO_DuPont says:
::Arrives at the TL:: TL: Bridge!

FCO_Croft says:
::takes his seat at Flight Control::

CTO_Ahkileez says:
::walks onto the bridge with the alarm starting to sound:: Self: What the hell? ::rushes to his station and starts to glean what he can from the incoming reports::

CIV_Benson says:
::in the TL heading for TIC::

FCO_Croft says:
CO: Sir, should I put a fighter squadron on hot standby.

ENV_Heaton says:
*CIV* Yes sir ::gives the command to the pilots to assemble::

OPS-Exeter says:
XO: Aye, I'll do it on Leave, but if he ends up with a broken nose it's not my fault!

XO_Black says:
::sighs softly::  SO: Who knows, Ensign... apparently we're needed on the bridge...

XEN_El_Aziz says:
::winces as the CTO thunders past::

CMO_Varesh says:
::sets the ribs, and starts working on the fractured femur:: Self: Wish Randi was here to help. ::maintains a light mental contact with Dref to monitor his mental state::

Host CO_Winters says:
FCO: Do it, but don't do anything that they might see on sensors, I don't want to antagonise them.

SO_K`Nargh says:
XO: We just got back from a life threatening mission and now this....  ::picks up speed::

TO_DuPont says:
::Steps out onto the bridge, spots the CTO at Tac 1 and nods to him ,before powering up tac 2::

FCO_Croft says:
CO: Understood.

Host Taq`fan says:
::sidles to the Captain::  CO: I strongly recommend against it, Captain.

CIV_Benson says:
::exits TL and walks into the TIC::  ALL: Ok men I want all information on the Kinwe craft at once and get it on the display

Host CO_Winters says:
Taq: Your recommendation is noted.

CTO_Ahkileez says:
@ ::tries to ignore everyone he possibly can before he snaps at someone:: TO: What's going on? Where have you been?

EO_Leasha says:
::starts to come round feeling  little light head to begin with and looks around to see herself in Sickbay, after a few minutes she sits up feeling next to no pain::

TO_DuPont says:
CTO: Downloading the tactical information from the Miz'nareal sir!

FCO_Croft says:
*Lt.Cmdr Nitzcherawowski*: Have the fighters on hot standby. 

CSO_Danann says:
::turn the shuttle's scanners on the ships::  *TO*: DuPont, just to let you know, these are nothing like the Miz'nareal... no bio compounds. we're dealing with someone else here.

CMO_Varesh says:
<MO_Painless> EO: Welcome back... you took a bit of a beating over there.

FCO_Croft says:
*Lt.Cmdr Nitzcherawowski*: The CIV will brief you further. Croft out.

Host Taq`fan says:
<Nitzcherawowski> *FCO* Acknowledged.

XO_Black says:
::exits the TL as it arrives on the bridge and steps out::  SO: I know Ensign... but keep sharp... we're far from ready here...

CTO_Ahkileez says:
::mutters something about downloading it from the damned bridge but doesn't voice it, looking over the sensor reports instead:: CO: Incoming vessels, Captain, scout class. Unknown armament.

EO_Leasha says:
::looks at the DOC:: MO: You mean to say I survived it ::smiles amused::  Any chance I can go now ?

Host Taq`fan says:
CO: You should hide in the nebula.  Their sensors aren't as powerful as yours

CIV_Benson says:
::touches comm for the hanger deck::  *Pilots* you have all be brief about the Kinwe , be prepared and standby for know, go over your padds for any information you need and stay in the formation we have talked about before, Benson out

TO_DuPont says:
*CSO* Thanks, looks like we may have some unfriendly company, we may need you at Science?

CMO_Varesh says:
::finishes up on the femur and gets the deep tissue regenerator out, starts healing the contusions::

ENV_Heaton says:
*CIV* Pilots are ready sir, awaiting orders.

Host CO_Winters says:
Taq: A good suggestion.... FCO: Get us into the nebula.

CMO_Varesh says:
<MO_Painless> EO: I'd prefer if you stayed. You're still a bit shaky.

FCO_Croft says:
::looks around at the bridge crew entering, and raises an eyebrow::

OPS-Exeter says:
::walks on the bridge looking at the view screen::

CSO_Danann says:
::sees the download is finished, shuts the shuttle down fully and exits.:: *TO*: I'm on my way up now, actually...  ::makes her way (fast) out of the shuttle bay and into a lift:: TL: Bridge...

SO_K`Nargh says:
::enters the bridge::

FCO_Croft says:
CO: It seems foolish to remind you of something you are no doubt aware of, but our shields will not work in there captain.

XEN_El_Aziz says:
::reading info on the Taq'uah/Kinwe contacts, supplied by Taq'fan::

CIV_Benson says:
*FCO*: The pilots are on standby and preparing as we speak, all information is loaded into the Tactical computer and any new information we get will be uploaded at once

FCO_Croft says:
CO: I'm moving us in with Half impulse.

TO_DuPont says:
::frowns slightly at the CO's orders that were hiding but says nothing::

SO_K`Nargh says:
::sits down at SCI2::  self: Where is danann?

FCO_Croft says:
*CIV* Acknowledged. Standby for further orders.

EO_Leasha says:
MO: I’m fine now Honest I’ll even walk for you if need be I need to download the things I have on here

SO_K`Nargh says:
::powers SCI2 up::

Host CO_Winters says:
CTO: Assessment of our weapons capability within the nebula?

CMO_Varesh says:
::mumbles to himself while working on Dref::

OPS-Exeter says:
::takes a deep breath and then exhales and takes his station::

XO_Black says:
::moves to the command area and nods at the CO::  CO: Captain, Commander Dref and Ensign Leasha are in sickbay now for treatment...   ::looks at the viewscreen::

CSO_Danann says:
::exits onto the bridge and makes her way to her station, logging on and begins scans of the ships::

CTO_Ahkileez says:
::frowns:: CO: Targeting will be all but useless, sir. We'd have as much chance of hitting Earth from here as we would those ships.

CIV_Benson says:
::the TIC tactical officer calls him over:: *CO* we are picking up another vessel, it a Ta'quah ship

Host CO_Winters says:
CTO: Can we hope the same applies to them?

SO_K`Nargh says:
::notices CSO walk in::  CSO: long time no see ::smiles::

CMO_Varesh says:
<MO_Painless> ::sighs:: EO: OK, go to that panel over there. But I want you back on this bio bed as soon as you're done.

CTO_Ahkileez says:
::frown deepens:: CO: We can hope, Captain. But we won't know that for sure till they fire.

TO_DuPont says:
::Whispers:: CTO: Sir we could try manual targeting?

Host CO_Winters says:
CIV: Hail them.

ENV_Heaton says:
*CIV* The scouts are moving into position sir

EO_Leasha says:
::Just looks:: MO: Thank you ::walks over to the panel and downloads the bits she has and glances to see where the MO is::

CSO_Danann says:
::looks back, hadn’t even noticed SO there. Smiles a little::  SO: Report ::quietly said::

CTO_Ahkileez says:
::nods:: TO: That's your job.

OPS-Exeter says:
::raises a eyebrow::  Self: what is going on here. ::looks at the FCO::  FCO: Mind telling me what is going on, kiddo?

CIV_Benson says:
ENV: Very good keep me informed    *CO* They appear to be derelicts, sir

CMO_Varesh says:
<MO_Painless>:: moves over to one of the other patients, trusting Leasha to follow his orders::

SO_K`Nargh says:
CSO: SO reporting for duty ma'am ::winks:: nothing yet but I’m still scanning

CTO_Ahkileez says:
::opens the comm board:: *TIC*: Tactical to TIC, Ensign Benson come in.

TO_DuPont says:
CTO: Aye sir ::quickly familiarises himself with the manual acquisitioning console::

ENV_Heaton says:
*CIV* There ETA is 27 Minutes sir

Host CO_Winters says:
CIV: Understood ::sigh::

XO_Black says:
::glances at the CO::  CO: What's your plan, Sir...?

EO_Leasha says:
::sees where the Mo is and thinks about following orders and bits her lip looking towards the door::

CMO_Varesh says:
::puts the regenerator down and runs another scan of Dref::

CIV_Benson says:
*CTO* Benson here, 27 minutes to crafts are in range inform the CO please

Host CO_Winters says:
Taq: Are you certain they won't respond to diplomacy?

Host Taq`fan says:
CO: Captain, it is imperative that Commander Dref is up and leading this mission now.

Host Taq`fan says:
CO: The Kinwe never respond to any form of contact.

FCO_Croft says:
Ops: I would think that as Chief Operations Officer, you'd be fully aware of the situation. As it appears you aren't... Two Kinwe scout vessels are on an intercept course.

CSO_Danann says:
::sighs:: SO: I want every thing you have on those ships... what are they made of, for one...

CMO_Varesh says:
<MO_Painless> ::doesn't look up:: EO: Ensign, if you HAVE to go... do it now while I'm not looking.

SO_K`Nargh says:
CSO: I’m scanning still scanning ma'am

CTO_Ahkileez says:
*CIV*: Acknowledged. CO: Captain, incoming vessels will be in range in 27 minutes. Sir, should we engage?

EO_Leasha says:
::Smiles at the MO:: MO: I owe you one ::heads out the door and to the TL::

FCO_Croft says:
::raises an eyebrow at the Ambassadors comment::

TO_DuPont says:
CTO: Sir according to the profile that the Ambassador gave us the Kinwe are the scavengers sir, I don' think we have to much to fear from them

Host CO_Winters says:
CTO: Not unless we really have to, I don't want us on record as starting this fight.

SO_K`Nargh says:
::reports are coming in::  CSO: Scan is in, looks like there made of some metallic substance, 2 visible weapons on each side of the ship, capable of warp 6 speeds

OPS-Exeter says:
FCO: Sjeesh, you got a Bad temper, or just realised your at a dead end job, I’ve just got onboard a few seconds ago. And when you get old enough you'll learn that you can't keep track on everything!

FCO_Croft says:
CO: I have an idea sir. However, I think it would be best to discuss it in private, although that may not be a possibility.

Host CO_Winters says:
*CMO* What's the situation with Mr Dref?

CMO_Varesh says:
::scans once more to make sure Dref will be alright::

CIV_Benson says:
ENV: keep a watch on those ships, are they heading for us or the Deilect

FCO_Croft says:
Ops: I don't have a bad temper. People who can't do their jobs annoy me.

EO_Leasha says:
TL: bridge

FCO_Croft says:
::turns back to the conn, pretending the conversation is over::

CIV_Benson says:
*CTO* did you need anything sir

XO_Black says:
::glances at the CTO::  CTO: Tactical analysis of those two incoming vessels so far, Mr Ahkileez ?

CSO_Danann says:
::hears the CO:: CO: Sir, it seems their highest speed is Warp 6...if we can get out of the nebula region we could keep some distance between us...

CMO_Varesh says:
::doesn't look up and taps his badge:: *CO*: I've just finished operating, sir. He's not even conscious yet... and I want him to stay here for a few days... unless you want a walking corpse.

Host CO_Winters says:
XO: I'm still considering... I don't want to start this fight, but if it's inevitable anyway, we don't have much of a choice.

OPS-Exeter says:
:;shakes his head:: FCO: That attitude will take you far, kiddo, and you address me as 'sir'

CSO_Danann says:
::nods to SO in thanks::

CIV_Benson says:
::running through al the data we have about the Kinwe fighters::

Host CO_Winters says:
*CMO* I need him up here now, or we could *all* be walking corpses.

SO_K`Nargh says:
::nods in acknowledgment::

CTO_Ahkileez says:
*CIV*: Standby!

ENV_Heaton says:
CIV: They are heading for the nebula at this point sir, I can't tell for certain what they will do

EO_Leasha says:
::exits TL and enters bridge stopping slightly feeling dizzy heads up to the ENG consol and activates it seeing what has happened while she has been away::

CMO_Varesh says:
::sighs:: *CO*: Against my better judgement I'll do it. Expect us in 10 minutes. Varesh out.

CTO_Ahkileez says:
XO: Commander, those ships aren't a match for us. Given the fact that they have only displayed aggression, we should engage and disable those ships.

SO_K`Nargh says:
CSO: remember we still have to have that meeting ::winks::

XO_Black says:
::nods at the CO::  CO: Understood....

CIV_Benson says:
ENV: understood, if they move our way inform TAC immediately

Host CO_Winters says:
::rubs the bump on his head again::

FCO_Croft says:
Ops: That attitude will probably do you no good, sir.

ENV_Heaton says:
CIV: Yes sir, understood   Self: Why did I join Starfleet......

CSO_Danann says:
::scans for life-signs:: CO: there's only two life-signs per vessel sir... ::turns to CTO: CTO: can you disrupt their shielding if need be?

SO_K`Nargh says:
CO: Scans reveal that we are faster and we can outshoot them at any time

CMO_Varesh says:
::mutters under his breath and applies a hypospray to Dref's neck, waking him up:: Dref: Wakey wakey, Commander. You're needed on the bridge... ::mutters:: Even if I think you should be in bed for the next three weeks.

EO_Leasha says:
::takes a quick look at things satisfied and wonders what is going on ::

OPS-Exeter says:
::shakes his head more, then turns too his work. stopping as flight tactics from the past race threw his mind::  FCO: If you have some off time, let's put it too a test. I haven't beaten someone too a bloody pulp in a while!

XO_Black says:
CTO: Acknowledged, Lieutenant...  ::thinks::  But I’m for the steady approach here, they have done nothing to us yet.. and I still hope we can finish our mission before they get here..  ::sighs softly and sits down in his seat and brings up the sensor data on the incoming vessels, studying them::
