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

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
::at her console in the bridge, watching sensor data flow through and trying to make sense of it::

CO_Capt_Rome says:
::sits in his Ready room, going over the latest reports from Starfleet detailing relief efforts in this sector::

XO_Cmdr_Ro`kar says:
::on the Bridge, in the XO's chair:: Science: Any new data on the sensors?

CO_Capt_Rome says:
::puts the PADD away and sighs, still so much rebuilding going on after the Dominion war....hundreds of planets still in need to basic supplies and replicators and Starfleet can barely manage it all::

CO_Capt_Rome says:
::turns his chair away from the desk and walks over to the replicator:: Computer: Tall Raktajino with milk.

::The ship arrives at the anomaly::

CO_Capt_Rome says:
::takes a sip from the mug and looks out the view screen in his ready room and thinks that perhaps they should be out there as well, helping those who need it. But some ships are needed to continue the science mandate and protect the borders.::

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
::looks up from her console:: XO: We are still trying to determine the exact nature of the particles and their concentration. But the Chronoton emission has increased significantly, by 25%. And there is also evidence for Verterons

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
::puts the anomaly on the view screen again::

XO_Cmdr_Ro`kar says:
::swallows hard:: OPS: Twenty five percent you say.... ::taps his comm:: *CO*: Bridge to Captain Rome, we are arriving at the anomaly, sir.

CO_Capt_Rome says:
::taps his badge:: *XO*: On my way, Commander.

CO_Capt_Rome says:
::steps out of the Ready room, holding his mug in his right hand:: XO: What have we got?

XO_Cmdr_Ro`kar says:
CO: Well, the lunch menu hasn't arrived yet, but I assume it is Chicken Surprise... again... or.. ::glances at the view screen:: Oh, right. We have arrived at the anomaly, readings of chronotons have increased by 25%

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
::raises an eyebrow at the mention of chicken::

CO_Capt_Rome says:
::smiles at his first officer and sits down:: OPS: Any danger to the ship, Lieutenant ?

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
CO: They might incapacitate our engines if we are exposed for an extended time.

CO_Capt_Rome says:
OPS: Chronotons?

XO_Cmdr_Ro`kar says:
::shifts in his seat but remains calm::

CO_Capt_Rome says:
::accesses the console in his chair::

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
CO: No, the Verterons

CO_Capt_Rome says:
OPS: I see

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
CO/XO: We are also picking up some Dekyons now.

CO_Capt_Rome says:
OPS/XO: What is this? A party?

CO_Capt_Rome says:
FCO: Take us to 50 thousand kilometres then full stop.

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
::looks at Rome, blinking::

CO_Capt_Rome says:
OPS: Have engineering shut down our field coils and erect a stasis field around the warp core.

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
CO: aye sir ::sends the message to engineering::

::The Anomaly starts to swirl at the centre::

XO_Cmdr_Ro`kar says:
CO: Recommend yellow alert, Captain

CO_Capt_Rome says:
XO: Aye, raise shields commander.

XO_Cmdr_Ro`kar says:
::nods grimly:: Tactical: Yellow alert, Ensign, raise shields and place weapons on a priority queue in case we need them

CO_Capt_Rome says:
Science: Send out a multi spatial probe, I want a full spectral analysis.

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
::nods and taps her console:: CO: Loading probe...

CO_Capt_Rome says:
OPS: Lieutenant, the presence of Dekyons, Vertirons and Chronoton particles is troubling ...... could we be looking at some sort of wormhole? Perhaps a time vortex of some sorts?

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
::taps the console and sends the probe to the anomaly:: CO/XO: Probe sent and ... ::stops speaking::

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
CO/XO: The particle readings all doubled.

XO_Cmdr_Ro`kar says:
OPS: Can we locate the exact source of the particles or is it just in the general area?

CO_Capt_Rome says:
FCO: Back us off ensign, 100 thousand kilometres.

::The probe disappears into the anomaly::

CO_Capt_Rome says:
::watches the probe telemetry on his console:: OPS: Are we still receiving data?

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
CO/XO: The source seems to be at the centre and ... we are being scanned by an unknown source. I can't recognize the technology used.

CO_Capt_Rome says:
::starts stroking his beard::

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
CO: We lost the probe.

CO_Capt_Rome says:
XO: Transmit all scans gathered and our latest logs to Starfleet, Commander.

XO_Cmdr_Ro`kar says:
OPS: Anything specific that they are scanning or just the entire vessel?

XO_Cmdr_Ro`kar says:
CO: Aye, Captain. ::starts transmitting the logs back to Starfleet::

CO_Capt_Rome says:
OPS: Did the probe send back anything of value, Lieutenant?

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
CO/XO: The scans don't seem to be directed at us, instead it is like they are scanning the whole area.

CO_Capt_Rome says:
OPS: Is the anomaly showing any signs of gravitons?

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
CO: The probe transmitted until it disappeared, and by then the readings were off the charts.

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
CO: None sir.

CO_Capt_Rome says:
XO: Do you think we should risk a closer look, Commander?

CO_Capt_Rome says:
OPS: Did the probe show any sign of being pulled in?

XO_Cmdr_Ro`kar says:
::looks at Rome:: CO: I am not sure, Captain. Given we lost the probe in that anomaly, it seems a bit too risky to place the entire ship in danger without knowing more about this anomaly

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
CO: No evidence of any force acting on the probe.

CO_Capt_Rome says:
::looks at Ren::

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
CO/XO: There is movement in the centre of the anomaly.

CO_Capt_Rome says:
OPS: Enhance.

XO_Cmdr_Ro`kar says:
::in a lower voice:: CO: And I don't want to be caught in another 'time' challenge... ::tightens his jaw::

CO_Capt_Rome says:
XO: You and me both, Commander.

CO_Capt_Rome says:
XO: Well, I think. Since I don't remember the last one

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
::uses the view screen to zoom in on the source of movement::

::Slowly an object starts  to move through the rift::

CO_Capt_Rome says:
OPS: Full spectral scan, Lieutenant.

XO_Cmdr_Ro`kar says:
CO: Be glad that you don't.... ::turns back to the view screen::

CO_Capt_Rome says:
XO: Prepare tactical, but don't arm weapons.

CO_Capt_Rome says:
Self: Please let them be peaceful this time...

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
::runs a full spectral scan of the object::

XO_Cmdr_Ro`kar says:
CO: Aye Captain, preparing tactical. ::turns to look at the TO:: TO: Move weapons up the priority list, start warming up the pre-fire sequences and prepping torpedos

::A ship emerges from the centre::

CO_Capt_Rome says:
::is reminded of the time a spatial anomaly opened a rift between universes while he was CO of Arcadia station, that had led to a bloody battle..::

CO_Capt_Rome says:
XO: Then inform Engineering to bring the field coils back online, we might need to get out of here in a hurry.

XO_Cmdr_Ro`kar says:
CO: Yes, sir. Informing Engineering ::taps his comm:: *Engineering*: Bridge to Engineering, bring the field coils back online

CO_Capt_Rome says:
OPS: Lieutenant, have you department work with Sciences to come up with a way to collapse this...thing, just in case.

CO_Capt_Rome says:
OPS: Broadcast the standard peace and intro message, all bands, all frequencies.

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
CO: Yes sir. ::sends the standard Starfleet hail on all frequencies::

CO_Capt_Rome says:
::takes a sip of his Raktajino, now cold and grimaces and puts the mug away::

CO_Capt_Rome says:
OPS: Repeat the message

CO_Capt_Rome says:
::starts drumming his fingers on his armrest::

CO_Capt_Rome says:
XO: I don't like this.

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
::nods and broadcasts the message again::

CO_Capt_Rome says:
::leans forward:: All: I don't recognise that configuration.

XO_Cmdr_Ro`kar says:
::glances back at the Tactical station to check they are ready before looking back:: CO: Neither do I... do we know what the ship is made of?

CO_Capt_Rome says:
Science: Passive scan only.

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
::nods and directs passive scans at the ship::

CO_Capt_Rome says:
OPS: Alright, open hailing frequencies.

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
CO/XO: I detect one faint life sign aboard. ::taps her console:: CO: Hailing frequencies opened.

CO_Capt_Rome says:
COM: Unknown vessel: Unknown vessel, this is Captain Jonathan Rome of the Federation starship Scimitar. We are on a peaceful exploration mission. We detected this spatial anomaly and came to investigate. We are reading your lifesign but it seems very weak, do you require medical assistance?

CO_Capt_Rome says:
::motions for Saprin to cut the channel::

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
::nods and cuts the channel::

CO_Capt_Rome says:
OPS: Is the pilot injured?

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
CO: That is quite possible, given the faint life signs.

CO_Capt_Rome says:
FCO: Bring us within transporter range, but at the first sign of any danger reverse course.

CO_Capt_Rome says:
OPS: When you have a lock, transport the pilot to Sickbay. Inform sickbay to raise a stasis field to contain him.

CO_Capt_Rome says:
XO: Get security to Sickbay immediately.

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
::nods, informs sickbay and tries to acquire a lock::

XO_Cmdr_Ro`kar says:
CO: Aye sir... ::Taps his comm again:: *Security*: Bridge to standby Security team Alpha, proceed to Sickbay immediately

CO_Capt_Rome says:
Tactical: When we have transported the pilot, get a tractor lock on his vessel and bring it alongside us.

CO_Capt_Rome says:
FCO: When transport completes, bring us back to 100 thousand kilometres and hold.

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
CO: We have a transporter lock.

CO_Capt_Rome says:
OPS: Beam him onboard.

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
::notices the interference caused by the hull:: CO/XO: The strange hull is interfering with transporters .... XO/CO: But I think I can compensate ... Energizing...::taps the console::

CO_Capt_Rome says:
OPS: Good work, Lieutenant.

::The pilot is beamed into medical::

OPS_Lt_Saprin says:
::nods:: CO: Thank you sir.

CO_Capt_Rome says:
FCO/TO: Tractor that vessel and bring us to safe distance.

CO_Capt_Rome says:
::Stands up:: XO: I'm going to see to our guest, Commander. You have the Bridge.

XO_Cmdr_Ro`kar says:
CO: Aye Captain... Be careful, sir.

::The doctor sees a figure clad in a flight suit of some sort and a helmet::

CO_Capt_Rome says:
XO: Thank you Ren, I will.

CO_Capt_Rome says:
::walks towards the Turbolift and enters:: TL: Sickbay.

CO_Capt_Rome says:
::thinks that it's strange for only one person to pilot a ship of that size::

CO_Capt_Rome says:
::enters sickbay::

::The doctor starts to remove the helmet::

CO_Capt_Rome says:
::walks over to the stasis field and looks the guest over:: Tactical: Lower your weapons.

::As the helmet is removed the doctor and CO look into the face of the pilot and recognize an all to familiar species...The pilot appears to be a .............Monkey::
