Star Trek: Apache - Episode #8
Week # 5
Mission: "Double Helix"

Host Jafo_AGM says:
While Dr. Naegle and Commander Linard are in Apache's sickbay trying to find out a cure for this mysterious virus, the shuttle Tiber, carrying Ensign Savanah Xavier and Chief Tactical Officer Rikus Drathlai, is still chasing Apache’s intruder.

Host Jafo_AGM says:
While in mid-pursuit, The USS An Lu Shan, carrying ex-Apache crewman Toros Asadourian, has engaged the shuttle, apprehended the refugee, and taken the Tiber in her shuttle bay for the ride back to Apache. The Romulan spy waits in the An Lu Shan's brig.

Host Jafo_AGM says:
Meanwhile, on the W'Lendan Prime repair facility, matters have gone from bad to worse. The inhabitants of this facility have been severely affected by the unknown virus and Apache has detected a power up in the main core of SR 092.

Host Jafo_AGM says:
Unable to stop the cascade of power increases, the core has exploded, destroying the station, its people and everything near and around it. All with the exception of Apache, who managed to pull away just in time.

Host Jafo_AGM says:
With part of the station still heavily bolted to her bow, she managed to escape the repair facilities destruction, but not before coming near to getting demolished herself. The brilliant shockwave from the facility's explosion knocked main power offline and sent Apache into complete darkness.

Host Jafo_AGM says:
She is only working on emergency power as all crews are working to restore main power and get systems back online.

Lt_Maura says:
@OPS Cadet: Any word from them?

OPS Cadet says:
@Maura: No ma'am, still trying.

FCO_Powers says:
CO: We will have warp power in five minutes sir.

XO_Linard says:
::re-reads the test results from all crewmembers and the phaser energy analysis hoping to narrow it down to one solution::

CMO_Naegle says:

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
OPS: Any response from Starbase 366?

OPS_Evans says:
CO: Not yet still trying on all Channels.

Host Jafo_AGM says:
ACTION: All the medical scans from the Apache crew, both those of the unaffected officers and those that were phasered, show higher than normal levels of endorphins being released by their brains.

CEO_Yeung says:
::tries to get artificial gravity fully working on all decks::

OPS Cadet says:
@Lt. Maura:  Apache on Main Viewer. 

CTO_Drathlai says:

Lt_Maura says:
@OPS Cadet: What is their status?

TO_Marsland says:
@::sees how awful the Apache looks, wonders how they survived the explosion::

CEO_Yeung says:
::grins as he brings gravity back on-line:: Self: Now to the rest...

XO_Linard says:
::taps her combadge:: *CMO*: How are things going doctor? Any word yet on a cure?

OPS Cadet says:
@Maura: I read a main power failure, Lieutenant.

CTO_Drathlai says:
@::sees Marsland’s face:: TO:  She's okay ... I know it. ::looking stead-fast::

Lt_Maura says:
@::looks over to the CTO::

CMO_Naegle says:
CNS: Yeah, that's what I noticed too.  Now how do we use this information to help combat a recurrence, if necessary, or affect a vaccine?

Host Jafo_AGM says:
ACTION: All around the ship, priceless family heirlooms come crashing down to the deck as artificial gravity is restored.

TO_Marsland says:
@CTO: Look, the station's moorings are still attached!

Lt_Maura says:
@OPS Cadet: Still no communication?

OPS_Evans says:
::increases power to communication, sets messages to both Starbase 366 and Star Fleet command on automatic::

OPS Cadet says:
@Maura: No ma'am, still trying all frequencies.

CMO_Naegle says:
*XO*: We're going over the scans right now.  All we know is that endorphin levels on the unaffected crew are elevated.

XO_Linard says:
::suddenly feels her stomach sink to her shoes::

CSO_Storal says:
CO: I’ve done what I can with the sensors ... not much better, but they should be operating at 80 percent.

CTO_Drathlai says:
@::turns to the TO:: TO: But she is intact... ::winks::  She always stays at that semi-flyable situation...

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
OPS: Have you confirmed that our communications systems are working?

CNS_MacKenzie says:
::studies the scans:: CMO: It would be normal for the endorphin levels to be elevated due to the virus. But these levels are much higher than you would expect.

CEO_Yeung says:
Caillau/Belron: Make sure main power remains at full. And make sure warp engines are running at peak capacity.

TO_Marsland says:
@CTO: True, she is intact.

XO_Linard says:
*CMO*: Well it's a start doctor, and a good one. Let me know your progress. Linard out.

OPS_Evans says:
CO: I shall check again sir.

CTO_Drathlai says:
@Maura:  Sir, permission to take TAC?

OPS_Evans says:
::runs level 1 diagnostic on communication system::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
CSO: Excellent Commander

Lt_Maura says:
@::Looks over at the CTO:: Drathlai: Yes, permission granted.

XO_Linard says:
::turns to Tyria:: CO: Have you checked on Brian? How is the little one doing?

CSO_Storal says:
CO: It’s not much, but it’s better than we had. :: chuckles::

Lt_Maura says:
@::watches the Apache::

CTO_Drathlai says:
@::runs to it and excuses the current cadet, scans Apache for damage::  Maura:  Thank you, sir...

TO_Marsland says:
@Maura: Do you need anything Sir? If need be I can take SCI.

CSO_Storal says:
::goes to Science One and begins running sensor sweeps::

TO_Marsland says:
@Maura: Or FCO. That's what I was on the Triton…

Lt_Maura says:
@TO: Assist Mr. Drathlai…

TO_Marsland says:
@Maura: Aye, sir. :: goes over to the CTO::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::nods to the CSO::  XO: Yes, I checked on him as soon as main power was restored.  He's fine except for a bruise.  S'Toran is taking care of him.

OPS Cadet says:
@Maura: Ma'am, we’re receiving an automated message from Apache.

CTO_Drathlai says:
@TO: Take subordinate TAC, help OPS talk to the Apache... ::continues scanning::

CIV_Xavier says:
@::walks onto the bridge::

OPS_Evans says:
CO: Captain, communications are at about 50% but functioning.

TO_Marsland says:
@CTO: Aye, sir.

XO_Linard says:
CO: Poor little thing. I'm glad he's okay then. He's so tiny to understand all this....

Lt_Maura says:
@OPS Cadet: On speakers…

TO_Marsland says:
@::goes over to TAC/OPS 2::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
OPS:  Are we receiving anything?

FCO_Powers says:
CO: We have warp power back, Captain.

Lt_Maura says:
@::Listens to the message::

Host Jafo_AGM says:
ACTION: USS An Lu Shan enters the same sector as the USS Apache...

OPS_Evans says:
CO: No sir.

CIV_Xavier says:
@::walks to a science station::

CSO_Storal says:
CO: Sir, I’m detecting a ship on SRS ... I cannot ID the sip as of yet.

CIV_Xavier says:
@::and starts to scan for the Apache::

Lt_Maura says:
@OPS: Continue sending that we are here with their shuttle and prisoner and if they need assistance.

TO_Marsland says:
@OPS: Sir, maybe if we tried adjusting the EM bandwidth... ::makes adjustments:: Try it now, sir.

XO_Linard says:
::walks over to the CSO:: CSO: Can you get a warp signature?

CMO_Naegle says:
CNS: I understand, now we need to use that information.  We could try isolating the endorphins of the unaffected crew and try to synthesize a vaccine.

CSO_Storal says:
::tries to filter out some of the interference:: CO: I believe it’s the An Lu Shan, sir.

Lt_Maura says:
@FCO Cadet: Continue on course and slow to half speed as we approach.

OPS Cadet says:
@TO: Better, but still not good enough to make much of a difference ... keep trying.

Lt_Maura says:
@::sends a message to Lt .Toros' quarters::

FCO_Powers says:
CO: Do you want me to go to warp, Captain?

Host Jafo_AGM says:
ACTION: An Lu Shan comes alongside Apache...

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
FCO:  Plot a course to Starbase 366 and prepare to engage.    ::hears the CSO:: OPS:  Hail the An Lu Shan, let them know the suspected situation at Starbase 366.

CMO_Naegle says:
CNS: What do you think, Cal?

CNS_MacKenzie says:
::notices that the two officers not affected by the virus were injured::  CMO: It is possible that Rikus and Lt. Evans would of already had an elevated level of endorphins in their blood. I'm not sure about a vaccine, but we do need to elevate the levels of endorphins a little less dramatically. ::tries to smile and remembers shooting::

OPS_Evans says:
CO: ayes sir

FCO_Powers says:
::Plots course and prepares to engage::

TO_Marsland says:
@CTO: It's not helping enough, sir. We believe the problem is on their side of communications.

CTO_Drathlai says:
@::nods::  TO:  Probably so ... take TAC real quick. Let me try ... plus, I'd like to respond to them first. ::nods to the OPS cadet and steps up to OPS::

CTO_Drathlai says:
@::plays message::  Maura:  We got them on COM...

OPS_Evans says:
COM: Au Lu Shan:  This is the USS Apache, do you receive us?

Lt_Maura says:
@COM: Apache: This is Lieutenant Maura of the An Lu Shan ...glad to hear you. We have some things that belong to you.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
COMM: An Lu Shan:  This is Captain Turnbull, what have you found?

CMO_Naegle says:
::smiles at the memory of getting the counselor to shoot her:: CNS:  Yes, we don't want to put people in pain any more than we want to phaser the whole crew again.

TO_Marsland says:
@::takes the TAC station::

Lt_Maura says:
@::looks over at the Apache people and smirks::

XO_Linard says:
::smiles over at Tyria:: CO: I believe they mean our crew from the Tiber.

CNS_MacKenzie says:
::tries to think:: CMO: If we could block the breakdown of the endorphins, long enough for the virus to be eradicated from their systems…

Lt_Maura says:
@::looks over at the TO jumping around like a rabbit:: TO: Please keep track of your station.

CIV_Xavier says:
@::starts to feel a little weak, looks at the chronometer. Need my pill::

FCO_Powers says:
:: fingers poised over the controls::

TO_Marsland says:
@Maura: Aye, sir.

Lt_Maura says:
@COMM: Apache: How would you like to proceed please?

CIV_Xavier says:
@::rummages through her pockets take a pill out and swallows it::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::nods:: XO:  Of course.

CMO_Naegle says:
::thinks hard:: CNS: How about if we use the sonic showers?  We could try to match the resonance of the phasers without the side effects of phasering.

Lt_Maura says:
@::looks around as she waits for their response::

CIV_Xavier says:
@::scans the area:: Self: Sheesh… ::picks up a lot of dead bodies floating in the vacuum of space::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
COMM: An Lu Shan:  Have the Tiber crew transport aboard.  Also, we could use your assistance in our efforts to get a virus treatment to Starbase 366.

CTO_Drathlai says:
@::thinks::  Maura:  Well, sir, we should get the prisoner back to the Apache, as well as us...

CIV_Xavier says:
@CTO: Sir, considering the current shape of the Apache that’s inadvisable!

Lt_Maura says:
@COMM: Apache: CO:  Whatever assistance we can give you is yours , just say the word. Your crew is on its way. What about your runabout?

CTO_Drathlai says:
@CIV:  But isn't that exactly what the Captain ordered?  ::grins::

XO_Linard says:
CO: Captain, when the doctor comes up with a cure, I was thinking that converting it to a gaseous state and ventilating it throughout SB 366 might be the quickest way to administer the drug.

Lt_Maura says:
@::senses confusion::

CMO_Naegle says:
CNS: Or we could try blocking the production of endorphinase.

CTO_Drathlai says:
@Maura:  Perhaps get us back to the Apache and leave our "friend" here until the Apache gets back on her feet?

CIV_Xavier says:
@::thinks Lt Drathlai is thinking better::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
COMM:  An Lu Shan:  The Tiber will have to wait.  ::shakes her head trying to compose her thoughts::  XO:  See what you can do with that, it does seem to be the most effective way.

Host Jafo_AGM says:
ACTION: CTO Drathlai and CIV Xavier beam back to the Apache...

CNS_MacKenzie says:
::endorphinase of course:: CMO: That could work. If we can maintain an elevated level of endorphins long enough for them to eradicate the virus. Janet that's a great idea, how can I help?

CTO_Drathlai says:
::materializes on the Apache::

CIV_Xavier says:
::materializes on the Apache::

XO_Linard says:
::nods:: CO: Do you need me to head down to sickbay?

CTO_Drathlai says:
::steps off the TR pad, nods to the TR chief, and heads for the TL::

CNS_MacKenzie says:
::smiles to herself:: CMO: I could always stop the counseling sessions for a while also. Stress can lead to elevated levels of endorphins also and stress is something this ship is rarely short of.

CMO_Naegle says:
CNS: You can help me develop the treatment to administer by hypospray.  We'll need a test person as well.

CIV_Xavier says:
::follows Lt. Drathlai::

CTO_Drathlai says:
::enters TL and waits for CIV::  TL:  Bridge...

CMO_Naegle says:
::looks alarmingly at CNS:  CNS: No don't do that, Cal!

TO_Marsland says:
@Maura: Would you like me to remain at tactical?

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::shakes her head:: XO:  Once Dr. Naegle has the treatment, yes, I would like you to oversee the disbursement  of the vaccine.

XO_Linard says:
::nods:: CO: Understood.

Lt_Maura says:
@TO: Yes, please remain at tactical for now.

CIV_Xavier says:
::looks at the TL::

CTO_Drathlai says:
::steps out of the TL onto the bridge::  CO:  Lieutenant Drathlai reporting for duty, sir ... permission to take TAC?

CIV_Xavier says:
::enters the Bridge::

TO_Marsland says:
@Maura: Aye sir. ::begins tactical scans of the sector::

CNS_MacKenzie says:
::smiles at Janet:: CMO: Janet, I think your endorphin levels just went up. The counselor’s door is always open.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
CTO:  Take your position, Lt … welcome back.

XO_Linard says:
::grins to herself remembering a time when she performed similar techniques with the ventilation systems::

CMO_Naegle says:
CNS:  Shall we inform Commander Linard of our findings?

CIV_Xavier says:
::exits the TL::

CTO_Drathlai says:
CO:  Glad to be back, sir, and thank you... ::moves to TAC and nods to Sarlis::

FCO_Powers says:
::looks at Drathlai and then back to his station incase something happens::

CMO_Naegle says:
CNS:  Quick, get a hypospray! ::laughs::

Lt_Maura says:
@::waits for instructions on what they want them to do with their prisoner, shuttle, and runabout::

CSO_Storal says:
:: gets Long-range sensors to clear, then they go fuzzy again:: Self: By the Emissary!

CNS_MacKenzie says:
::smiles at Janet:: CMO: I think you should and the sooner we find a test case the better. ::laughs and grabs the hypospray::

CTO_Drathlai says:
::begins running diagnostics of tactical systems::  Self:  It really did a number on us. ::shakes his head::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
COMM: An Lu Shan:  We will retrieve the shuttle and runabout once we reach Starbase 366.  We would like your assistance there.

Lt_Maura says:
@COM: Apache: Roger, we will follow you.

CMO_Naegle says:
CNS: Be my guest, counselor.

Lt_Maura says:
@FCO: Set course for Starbase 366.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
FCO:  Forward the course you've plotted to the An Lu Shan, and then engage.

Lt_Maura says:
@FCO: Maintain course and speed with the Apache…

Lt_Maura says:
@::sends report to Toros::

CNS_MacKenzie says:
CMO: As soon as we arrive at the Starbase we should find a test case. ::turns and loads a couple more hyposprays:: We should probably treat any crewmembers that are going down onto the starbase also.

FCO_Powers says:
::forwards the course to the An Lu Shan and then engages:: CO: Aye, sir.

Host Jafo_AGM says:
ACTION: The USS Apache enters warp bound for Starbase 366 followed shortly by the USS An Lu Shan on a parallel course.

CMO_Naegle says:
CNS:  That's a good idea.  I'll inform the XO.

Lt_Maura says:
@::sits back down with a heavy sigh and goes over the report from the Apache::

OPS_Evans says:
::Continues to try to raise Starbase 366::

CMO_Naegle says:
*XO*: Sickbay to Linard, we have a progress report, Commander.

CNS_MacKenzie says:
CMO: Okay, I'll continue producing the endorphinase and readying the hyposprays. ::stretches and tries not to yawn::

Lt_Maura says:
@OPS Cadet: Keep an open channel with the Apache.

TO_Marsland says:
@SO Cadet: Please forward all Long-Range Scans of SB 366 to my console for tactical analysis.

XO_Linard says:
*CMO*: Go Ahead doctor. ::listens intently and nods for the CO to listen in::

SO Cadet says:
@TO: Aye, sir. ::forwards data::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::overhears the message from sickbay, and listens::

CSO_Storal says:
:: listens to the report from sickbay ::

CNS_MacKenzie says:
::I should check on Jeff:: *Torres*: How are things going Jeff? ::continues to load hyposprays::

CMO_Naegle says:
::nods and CNS, but notices her tiredness:: *XO*: Commander, Counselor MacKenzie and I have come up with a plan.  We need to break down the production of endorphinase, which will in turn speed up endorphin production.

CIV_Xavier says:
::at a science station scanning the area::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
CSO:  Examine the records we have of Starbase 366, see if there is any way to implement Commander Linard’s idea to administer the vaccine through the ventilation systems.  ::

CIV_Xavier says:
::wonders why there is no ship activity around the starbase::

XO_Linard says:
*CMO*: And you can do this … how?

TO_Marsland says:
@Maura: Scans show no ship activity near or at the Starbase.

CSO_Storal says:
CO: Acknowledged. ::brings up the Starbases command codes as well as its schematics::

CTO_Drathlai says:
::finishes diagnostics and turns to Sarlis, hands him a PADD::  Sarlis:  Run these simulations, it appears we have a better course of action, but, we need to keep plan B open, yes?  ::nods::

Lt_Maura says:
@TO: Good, thank you. Continue monitoring the area. 

TAC_Sarlis says:
CTO:  Yes sir. ::takes PADD::  I’m on it...

XO_Linard says:
::wonders about a simple endorphin stimulant ... what was its name again? ... Thinks for a moment::

TO_Marsland says:
@Maura: Aye Captain.

CTO_Drathlai says:
::begins prepping systems for use, just in case::

CIV_Xavier says:
::starts to conduct another scan::

CNS_Torres says:
*CNS*: Just Dandy, by the way your appointment schedule is a wee bit overbooked, sorry. ::sighs loudly::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
*CMO*: Forward your information to the An Lu Shan.  If this treatment is successful, it will be better to have both crews working to administer it.

Host Jafo_AGM says:
ACTION: The Apache and An Lu Shan pass the outer marker setup around the quarantine zone and each receives an automated message warning of the dangers ahead at SB 366.

CSO_Storal says:
CO: I believe we could beam someone directly to the station's primary environmental controls and introduce the gas there. It would minimize risk to any crew.

CSO_Storal says:
CO: I’m trying to access their computer systems to avoid what happened at the repair facility…

OPS Cadet says:
@Maura: Automated warning message received, Lt.

OPS_Evans says:
CO: Sir, we have received an automated message warning of quarantine of starbase 366.

XO_Linard says:
*CMO*: Doctor, I need to convert this into a gaseous state, enough for the entire Starbase, and store it in a pressurized container. I'm going to route it through the ventilation systems for a quicker administration.

Lt_Maura says:
@::nods to the Cadet at OPS:: 

FCO_Powers says:
::almost falls asleep at Conn::  Self: I need some rest…

Lt_Maura says:
@FCO: Maintain course with the Apache.

CMO_Naegle says:
*XO*: By producing an endorphinase inhibitor, Commander.  The counselor is readying the hyposprays now.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
OPS:  Understood, Lt.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
FCO:  Maintain our course and speed.

CSO_Storal says:
::tries to gain access to the Starbases computer systems using command codes::

CMO_Naegle says:
*CO*: Aye, Captain.

CNS_MacKenzie says:
::nods at Jeff's comment::*Torres*: No problem Jeff, I'll be there as soon as possible. ::overhears the XO's request::

CTO_Drathlai says:
CO/CSO:  I volunteer to be the beam-over, sirs...

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
CTO:  I want you to assemble a team to go with you, and then report to sickbay for briefing.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
XO:  You are to oversee the effort.

FCO_Powers says:
CTO: I’d like to go too, sir.

CTO_Drathlai says:
::hears FCO's request:: FCO:  Report to Sickbay, with permission of the Captain, that is, glad to have you...

CTO_Drathlai says:
::nods::  CO:  Yes sir...  Sarlis:  You're with me... :;enters TL with Sarlis as a Junior Officer takes the Tactical Station::  Sickbay...

CMO_Naegle says:
*XO*:  Well, sure, Commander.  It can be done.  We just need a few more minutes.

FCO_Powers says:
::looks back at his station::

Host Jafo_AGM says:
ACTION: Storal manages to access entry level computer functions aboard the starbase...

XO_Linard says:
*CMO*: Understood, inform me when the anti-toxin is ready...

FCO_Powers says:
CO: May I have permission to join the CTO, sir?

CMO_Naegle says:
*XO* Aye, sir … Sickbay out!

TO_Marsland says:
@::continues scans of the area::

CSO_Storal says:
CO: Sir I’m in the starbases system. ::runs a damage control report on the station::

CTO_Drathlai says:
::exits TL, and thinks::  *CIV*:  Report to Sickbay, we could use your Medical expertise...

XO_Linard says:
::heads for the TL:: CO: Yes, Ma'am.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
FCO: Once we are orbiting the station, you may turn the helm over to Lt. V'Taran.

CMO_Naegle says:
::goes to work on converting the anti-endorphinase to a gaseous state::

FCO_Powers says:
CO: Yes sir.

CNS_MacKenzie says:
::walks over to Janet:: CMO: We could always use a vaporizer loaded with the endorphinase inhibitor and attach it to the ventilation system of the starbase.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
CSO:  Excellent Commander, I want a complete status report.

OPS_Evans says:
::Still attempting to communicate with Starbase 366::

CTO_Drathlai says:
::enters sickbay::  CMO/CNS:  We're here ... how do we do this?

FCO_Powers says:
*CTO*: I'll be with you as soon as I establish an orbit.

Host Jafo_AGM says:
ACTION: The Apache and An Lu Shan drop from warp near Starbase 366 entering orbit around an apparently deserted Starbase...

CTO_Drathlai says:
*FCO*: Understood. 

CSO_Storal says:
::hangs head:: CO: Sir, I’ve received a report that several ships left the base after the quarantine went into effect.

FCO_Powers says:
::hands helm to V'Taran::

Lt_Maura says:
@::watches the screen as they drop from warp and enter orbit::

CNS_MacKenzie says:
:;looks up at Rikus:: CTO: We are still trying to work that out, Lieutenant.

TO_Marsland says:
@Maura: Captain I must suggest Yellow Alert. We might not know what ships are out there.

CMO_Naegle says:
::thinks a minute:: CNS:  That might work.  CTO: Can you help us with that, Rikus?

Lt_Maura says:
@TO: We are at yellow… ::shakes her head::

FCO_Powers says:
*CTO*: I'll be right down.  ::runs to catch up::

XO_Linard says:
::heads for the TR::

Lt_Maura says:
@COM: Apache: How may we assist?

CTO_Drathlai says:
::nods:: CMO/CNS:  I think we can do that ... how much of this will we need?

FCO_Powers says:
TL: Sickbay…

XO_Linard says:
*CTO/FCO/CIV*: Meet me in Transporter room 2.

TO_Marsland says:
@Maura: Aye sir... The light on my console went out... *Engineering* The YA light on console TAC-001 went out. Please send a technician to fix this as soon as possible. Marsland Out.

CTO_Drathlai says:
*XO*:  Yes sir, on our way as soon as I have the vaccine...

Lt_Maura says:
@::Nods to the TO::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
COMM: An Lu Shan:  We could use your support using the Tiber.  Do you have a team that can assist?

FCO_Powers says:
::enters sick bay::

Lt_Maura says:
@COM: Apache: We will ... be right with you. ::looks over at Tactical Officer:: TO: You're with me…

FCO_Powers says:
CMO: Got anything?

Lt_Maura says:
@::contacts Toros and fills him in:: *Toros*: Meet us at the Tiber to assist the Apache.

TO_Marsland says:
@Maura: Aye sir.  Cadet: Take over Tactical and keep this ship in shape.

TO_Marsland says:
@::follows Maura::

CNS_MacKenzie says:
CMO/CTO: We have enough anti-endorphinase … now we just need to add it to the liquid medium for the vaporizers. The Vaporizers need to be attached to the ventilation system of the starbase.

Lt_Maura says:
@::puts hand to TO’s shoulder as he bounds toward her and the TL:: TO: Your exuberance is commendable, but please remember to slow down and try to realize all that is going on around you. ::turns back to the TL and enters::

CMO: The away team should receive a dose of the anti-endorphinase before transporting to the starbase also.

Lt_Maura says:
@Computer: Shuttle bay 1.

CMO_Naegle says:
CNS/CTO:  The real question is how are we going to attach the vaporizers to the starbase?

TO_Marsland says:
@Maura: What do you mean sir? If you mean the Yellow Alert problem, I was just suggesting standard Starfleet protocol.

CTO_Drathlai says:
CMO:  Main Environmental ... just plug it in, so to speak.

FCO_Powers says:
::listens intently::

CMO_Naegle says:
CNS:  Why don't you go and administer the vaccine to the AT?

XO_Linard says:
*CTO*: Acknowledged.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
*CMO*: Are your teams ready to begin testing your theory?

CMO_Naegle says:
CTO:  Thanks, just wondering.

Lt_Maura says:
@TO: No that is not what I meant.  I meant that your aim to do too much at once to please might cost some time. Just want you to be aware to keep focused. ::smiles reassuringly::

CNS_MacKenzie says:
::nods at Rikus' suggestion:: CMO: Glad to. ::picks up a hypospray of the anti-endorphinase:: CTO: Care to go first?

CMO_Naegle says:
*CO* Yes Captain, I believe we are.  We would like to administer the vaccine to the away team before they beam down.

Lt_Maura says:
@::exits TL near shuttle bay::

CTO_Drathlai says:
::smiles::  CNS:  Just be gentle...

Lt_Maura says:
@::heads to Shuttle bay:: TO: Can you fly too?

TO_Marsland says:
@Maura: Aye sir. If I may be open, the TAC station does get a little, may I say, boring, when nothing is around, especially after serving on the Triton as the FCO.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
*CMO*: Acknowledged, transport and begin the procedure when ready.

CNS_MacKenzie says:
::grins:: CTO: Always… ::administers the hypospray:: …sorry no lollipops, I'm afraid. ::looks at the others:: We should get to the TR.

Lt_Maura says:
@TO: That may be so, Mister Marsland, but when you are assigned that station, that is your station. Boring or not, it deserves your full attention. Do you understand?

CSO_Storal says:
CO: I’ve determined the destination of the ships that left.  The FMS Endeavor headed out on a the last leg of its trade route to the Tesla colony

CMO_Naegle says:
*CO*: Thank you, Sickbay out!

Lt_Maura says:
@::enters shuttle bay and heads for the Tiber, looks around for Toros::

CNS_MacKenzie says:
::exits sickbay and heads for the TL with Rikus::

TO_Marsland says:
@Maura: Yes sir, I understand that completely.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
CSO:  And the other ships?

Lt_Maura says:
@::nods and smiles softly:: TO: Good… 

CTO_Drathlai says:
::nods::  CNS:  Give Sarlis and mister Powers theirs ... meet all of you at the Transporter Room… ::picks up the supplies and hustles to the TR::

FCO_Powers says:

TO_Marsland says:
@Maura: Sir, permission to take the Helm console?

Lt_Maura says:
@::smiles and nods:: TO: Permission granted, Mister Marsland.

XO_Linard says:
::enters the TR and gets a few supplies ready while waiting for her teams ... palm beacons, tricorders, hand phasers::

CSO_Storal says:
:: looks at the sensors :: CO: Sir, we have several escape pods on screen. I suggest we use the Tiber to round them up.

CTO_Drathlai says:
::exits TL with supplies, hurrying for the TR::  Self:  More running ... maybe I should give up TAC and join the Olympics... ::chuckles::

Transporter Operator says:
XO: Commander, we have the coordinates of the Operations Center ... and I've confirmed that there is a breathable habitat present.  Whenever your team is ready...

TO_Marsland says:
@::takes a seat at the helm, and begins the preflight sequence::

CNS_MacKenzie says:
::In TL with CTO, FCO and Sarlis:: FCO/Sarlis: You're next… ::Injects them with the anti- endorphinase before exiting the TL and hurrying towards the TR::

CMO_Naegle says:
T'Eah: Yes, I have. And where were you while the counselor and I were working?

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
OPS:  Contact Starbase 255 and the Tesla colony and inform them of the virus situation.  Also, forward them the information on the treatment.

Lt_Maura says:
@::contacts the apache to see how they want them to assist::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
CSO:  Agreed.

FCO_Powers says:
::smiles at Drathlai::

XO_Linard says:

CTO_Drathlai says:
::enters TR::  XO:  On time we are... ::smiles::

OPS_Evans says:
CO: Aye sir.

TO_Marsland says:
@Maura: Sir, according to navigational sensors, multiple escape pods have been launched from the starbase.

CPO_T`Eah says:
CMO: I was ... meditating.

CNS_MacKenzie says:

Lt_Maura says:
@::furrows brow:: 

FCO_Powers says:
::enters the TR::

CSO_Storal says:
CO: The rest were a relief convoy bound for Cardassia.

CNS_MacKenzie says:
XO: Commander, ready for your injection? ::smiles::

Lt_Maura says:
@COM: Apache: We show escape pods exiting starbase do you wish the An Lu Shan to gather them?

XO_Linard says:
::grins at the CTO:: CTO: No actually, you're late ... as usual...

XO_Linard says:
CNS: Injection?

CTO_Drathlai says:
::returns the grin::  XO: I’m good at playing catch up, though, no?

CMO_Naegle says:
T'Eah: Meditating eh?  As in ... sleeping?

CNS_MacKenzie says:
::smiles at the XO:: XO: The anti-endorphinase … it won't hurt a bit.

TO_Marsland says:
@Maura: Lifeforms are showing on the pods sir.

XO_Linard says:
CTO: It's a commendable effort, Lt.

CTO_Drathlai says:
::nods::  XO:  Thank you...

Lt_Maura says:
@::Nods to the TO::  

OPS_Evans says:
::Opens communication signal to Starbase 255 and Tesla colony sending information of the virus and treatment.  Sets message on automatic repeat::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
COM: Tiber:  We have detected life pods coming from the habitat area of the Starbase.  Begin retrieving the crew.  Use the treatment forwarded by Dr. Naegle on them.

CPO_T`Eah says:
CMO:  Yes, I do require it every now and then.

XO_Linard says:
::smirks at the CNS: CNS: I bet you say that to all your patients... ::holds out her arm::

Host Jafo_AGM says:

CMO_Naegle says:
T'Eah: I realize that...

TO_Marsland says:
@Maura: Is the An Lu Shan going to beam them aboard or shall we?

Lt_Maura says:
@TO: Checking…

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::looks at Kylorean:: OPS:  Try to contact that convoy and notify Starfleet of our findings.

CPO_T`Eah says:
::interrupting:: CMO: I'm not a machine, Doctor … as a Vulcan I do require sleep though in much lower quantities than you humans. 

CNS_MacKenzie says:
::laughs softly and places hypospray on the XO's arm:: XO: There now that should do it. Just be careful down there, remember you may not be greeted with open arms.

Lt_Maura says:
@TO: We did get some of that vaccine aboard did we not?

OPS_Evans says:
CO: Aye sir

XO_Linard says:
AT: Are we ready folks? We have a sick Starbase waiting for us.

CSO_Storal says:
Self: The virus would have done wonders in Cardassia Prime… ::chuckles and shakes his head:: …that was bad Ky. ::smiles::

CTO_Drathlai says:
FCO: Good idea, good idea...

CMO_Naegle says:
::getting exasperated at T'Eah:: T'Eah: I know you're not an android, but I've never seen you late for a shift.

Lt_Maura says:
