Star Trek: Apache - Episode #12
Week #7
Mission: "Auld Lang Syne"

Host Jafo says:
With the Apache and Resilient locked in heated battle, the Tartarus star succumbed to its final death throes and entered its hypernova phase. The heavy waves of gamma radiation being emitted by the star caused serious problems for each vessel as they tried to combat its effects.

Host Jafo says:
Thanks to the efforts of Lieutenant Powers, however, the Resilient was unable to maintain power to its weapons and quickly retreated into heavy layers of radiation that a damaged and unshielded Apache was unable to follow it into. A crippling final blow from a quantum fissure torpedo left the Apache helpless to the radiation penetrating its hull.

Host Jafo says:
With the Apache crew incapacitated by the deadly radiation from the star, Commander Linard's missing away team managed to commandeer a shuttlecraft from the USS Resilient. With the help of Lieutenant Commander Jaxlt Burta, they returned to the Apache in time to save its crew and move the ship out of danger.

MO_Sarel says:
CO: You are fine, sir ... a little knock on the head, but nothing serious.

OPS_Lowell says:
::squints into the bright light:: Sonja: Oh ... thank you, Cadet.  By the way, you can call me Craig when we’re not on the bridge. No need for all that formality.

Sonja_Davore says:
::reaches for a nearby tricorder and scans him like the doctors have shown her::  OPS: You took a nasty bump on the head, sir.

OPS_Lowell says:
::lies back and closes his eyes:: Sonja: Oh ... what happened?

CNS_Vekh says:
::exits his quarters finally and decides to check on sickbay::

MO_Sarel says:
CO: We are taking care of injured. ::looks around the room:: Just a few injuries to take care of.

CSO_Storal says:
XO: Sir, we should have the final analysis of the Hypernova within the hour.

CNS_Vekh says:
TL: Sickbay!

XO_Linard says:
::reads over the science reports::

CEO_Yeung says:

MO_Sarel says:
CO: How does your head feel?

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: A very weak COM signal comes into the Apache's Operations panel.

XO_Linard says:
CSO: Very good Mister Storal.

FCO_Romanov says:
@::at the helm of the shuttle, still shaking the cobwebs out from whatever he flew through::

Sonja_Davore says:
OPS: Well, for one thing the away team is back. ::looks at the MO behind her:: They are fairing well.  ::gives him a curious look:: And umm ... something to do with an alternate reality. Remember Glinn Brakash? Commander Naegle has found that his quantum signature does not match our own.

EO_Caillau says:
CEO: We're up to 89% now, sir.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
MO:  So overall relatively few injuries from the attack?  I remember hearing something about radiation poisoning when I was awake earlier? ::thinks about Sarel's question for a moment::

CNS_Vekh says:
::enters sickbay and observes the intense activity::

SO_Hammond says:
XO: Sir, we have an incoming signal.  Patching it through.

XO_Linard says:
SO: Let's hear it Mister Hammond.

SO_Hammond says:
::puts it through::  XO: Aye sir.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
:: smiles:: MO:  Like I'm hung over … but I'll be fine.

CNS_Vekh says:
::approaches Doctor Sarel:: MO: Greetings Doctor, how is the Captain doing? ::nods to CO Tyler::

XO_Linard says:
::lays down the PADD and begins to listen to the COM::

CEO_Yeung says:
::jogs to a ladder and climbs up to the second level:: CPO_Belron:  Chief, how are the engines?

FCO_Romanov says:
@COM: Apache: Apache this is the shuttle Gallant, please respond…

FCO_Romanov says:
@::adjusting the subspace radio again hoping it was not fried::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::nods to Vekh:: CNS: The Captain is doing fine, just a bit of a headache left over from my run in with the ready room door.

MO_Sarel says:
CO: Yes, to both questions. We took care of the radiation poisoning by sending a neutralizing gas through environmental systems.

CPO_Belron says:
CEO: Up and running, sir … we’re not detecting any problems.

XO_Linard says:
COM: Romanov: This is the USS Apache.  Please identify yourself.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*CEO*: Commander, our targeting systems are still malfunctioning. Your assistance is required.

Sonja_Davore says:
::sighs:: OPS: Yes ... Glinn Brakash.  ::bites her lower lip::  They are one and the same to me though … ::shrugs and doesn't elaborate on what she means::

CEO_Yeung says:
CPO_Belron: Good, keep me informed. ::walks over to another station::

CNS_Vekh says:
CO: Yes sir, I've heard these new ready room doors are really short tempered.

CSO_Storal says:
CTO: Get that shuttles identification immediately.

FCO_Romanov says:
@COM: Apache: This is the Federation shuttle Gallant; we are carrying new personnel and supplies.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
MO:  I'm glad to hear it. ::laughs at the Counselor's comment::

OPS_Lowell says:
Sonja: Doesn't matter... ::tries to sit up and winces from the pain in his head::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
CSO: Aye sir.

MO_Sarel says:
CO: I'm glad you're all right, sir. ::laughs too::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::begins accessing the tactical database for any history of the shuttlecraft Gallant::

Sonja_Davore says:
::helps Lieutenant Lowell:: OPS: Perhaps you should lie back down?

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The tactical scans immediately reveal the shuttle to be a Federation type 9 shuttle; assigned to Starbase 514.

SO_Hammond says:
::sets up an intercept course and waits::

Sonja_Davore says:
::wishes the MO was there and turns to look at her and then back at the Lieutenant again::

FCO_Romanov says:
@::looks over at Lieutenant Junior Grade Grayson, still groggy from the ride::

OPS_Lowell says:
Sonja: Must ... get back to my station.

XO_Linard says:
COM: Romanov: Acknowledged.

Sonja_Davore says:
OPS: I have no authority to release you, sir.  You'll have to clear that with the Doctors.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
CNS:  So it seems.  ::sits up slowly::  MO: Do I take that as being cleared to return to duty?

FCO_Romanov says:
@COM: Apache: I’m requesting priority-docking clearance, we have injured.

CNS_Vekh says:
::waits for the MO's reply to accompany the Captain back to the bridge::

OPS_Lowell says:
::finally gets all the way up:: Sonja: Ahh ... can you run and grab one of them please?

MO_Sarel says:
CO: Well, I guess so ... if you feel up to it. I have no medical reason to keep you here.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::looks up at Craig:: OPS:  Mister Lowell, I believe we have someone on the bridge that can handle your station you're cleared to leave.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
CSO: Sir, scans show the Gallant to be a type 9 shuttle, assigned to Starbase 514.

OPS_Lowell says:
CO: Aye Captain ... but I still should be there.

CSO_Storal says:
::nods:: CTO: Scan it for cargo.

XO_Linard says:
COM: Romanov: Clearance granted, we will be awaiting your arrival.

Sonja_Davore says:
::looks over at the MO:: MO: I recommend that we give the Lieutenant 20cc of acetaminophen for his headache. And then … he should be fine.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::slips off the biobed:: MO: Thank you, Doctor.  I'll be sure to take it slowly, and come back if anything changes.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::scans for any cargo readings onboard::

XO_Linard says:
*MO*: Doctor, we have a shuttle with injured aboard. Stand by for transport.

FCO_Romanov says:
@COM: Apache: Roger… ::hands working along the console bringing the shuttle in::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
OPS:  Yes, you should … but I need you in A-1 condition, Lieutenant.

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The shuttle Gallant heads for the Apache's shuttlebay and docks quickly, once the bay doors are open.

MO_Sarel says:
OPS: Actually, Captain … the Lieutenant is free to go, if he is feeling all right.

CNS_Vekh says:
::makes room for the CO:: CO: Captain, if you wish I can accompany you to the bridge.

Sonja_Davore says:
MO: He's waiting for your clearance.  ::weak smile::

OPS_Lowell says:
MO: Thank you, Doctor. CO: Can I accompany you to the bridge?

MO_Sarel says:
*XO*: We're ready ... send them in.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
CSO: Sir, the Gallant has docked and is standing by.

FCO_Romanov says:
::shuts systems down notices that he has a nasty cut on his forehead::

XO_Linard says:
FCO: Stand by … we are locking on to the co-ordinates of your injured and will beam them directly to sickbay.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::looks up at the Orion officer:: CNS:  Certainly Commander... ::turns to Lieutenant Lowell:: OPS:  By all means Lieutenant.

OPS_Lowell says:
::walks slowly following the Captain and Counselor::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
CNS: What did I miss while I was out of it?

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: An emergency transport commences for two individuals from the shuttle Gallant, in the shuttlebay, to the Apache's sickbay. Ensign Romanov, and another injured officer materialize.

FCO_Romanov says:
::looks around the sickbay:: Self: That was sudden...

OPS_Lowell says:
::listens to the Counselor::

CNS_Vekh says:
::walks toward the doors:: CO: Well sir, there's been some interesting twists to our initially mundane mission

CSO_Storal says:
CEO: What’s the status on the shields and repairs.

TO_Masterson says:
::finishes going over the shield and weapons:: CTO: Sir, what repairs remain to be addressed will need to be done from engineering.

Sonja_Davore says:
::blinks at the two people who suddenly appeared in the center of sickbay::

CNS_Vekh says:
CO: I take it you were already informed of the safe return of Commander Linard's away team?

XO_Linard says:
*MO*: Have the injured crew arrived there all right?

SO_Hammond says:
::stares blankly at the console zoning out for a few seconds::

Sonja_Davore says:
::looks at the MO waiting for her orders::

MO_Sarel says:
::sees two people materialize in sickbay:: *XO*: Oh yeah ... they are here.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
CNS: Yes, I did hear about Commander Linard's return and that of her away team.

FCO_Romanov says:
::looks over at Sonja:: Sonja: Well pretty nurses are a plus... ::passes out::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
TO: Could you attend to that, Lieutenant? They'll need someone there from tactical who knows how the targeting systems work.

OPS_Lowell says:
::looks interested at the mention of the away team::

Sonja_Davore says:
::raises her eyebrows and then quickly walks over to the FCO::

CEO_Yeung says:
*CSO*: Shields are up to 89% and weapons are fully functional, sir.

TO_Masterson says:
CTO: Aye sir, I'll head down there right now.

CSO_Storal says:
*CEO*: Good work, Jon.

CNS_Vekh says:
CO: Apparently the space-time distortions originating from Tartarus may have stretched the fabric of space throughout the sector.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
TO: Oh, and K’arana...

MO_Sarel says:
Sonja: Can you help me with them?

TO_Masterson says:
CTO: Yes sir?

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
TO: It is ... good to see you again.

CNS_Vekh says:
CO: …thus creating a rift between our reality and a parallel reality.

MO_Sarel says:
*XO*: Yes, they are here.

TO_Masterson says:
CTO: We’ll have to talk about that later.

OPS_Lowell says:
CNS: Is the rift stable? Or is the quantum flux still highly energized?

Sonja_Davore says:
MO: Of course, Doctor. ::takes the tricorder in hand and scans them:: He is alive. ::scans the other one:: He's also alive, although their condition needs stabilizing.

XO_Linard says:
*MO*: Acknowledged Doctor, inform me of their condition when you know.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::blinks at Masterson in confusion before returning his attention to the tactical console::

TO_Masterson says:
::walks into a turbolift:: TL: Engineering. ::the turbolift starts moving::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
CNS:  That would explain the appearance of the Resilient and Glinn Brakash’s shuttle.

CSO_Storal says:
::begins to scan for any quantum disturbances in-system::

MO_Sarel says:
Sonja: Check the readings on him first. ::points to the far bed:: I will check this one here.

CNS_Vekh says:
::enters the turbolift along with Captain and Operations Officer:: OPS: I don’t think so, Mister Lowell. Last scans revealed no sign of the attacking ship.

Sonja_Davore says:
MO: Aye sir. ::walks over the Lieutenant Junior Grade::

TO_Masterson says:
::exits the turbolift and heads toward engineering::

OPS_Lowell says:
::enters behind the Counselor and puts his hands to his forehead:: CNS: Not the other ship ... the rift itself? Is it stable at the quantum level?

CNS_Vekh says:
TL: Bridge… ::turns to Captain:: CO: With Doctor Naegle's confirmation that the deceased officers in the morgue are indeed quantum duplicates of our own, that's a fair assumption.

TO_Masterson says:
::enters engineering and begins work on the shields to get them up to full::

FCO_Romanov says:
::opens his eyes:: All: Am I dead?

XO_Linard says:
CSO: How are things going over their Commander? How are the repairs coming along?

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
CNS:  Do we assume that they are crew from the Resilient?

Sonja_Davore says:
MO: This man has radiation poisoning, probably gamma radiation ... the same radiation that we went through.

CNS_Vekh says:
OPS: We'll need to check that with Science, Mister Lowell. If Tartarus was indeed the causative factor for the rift, with Tartarus gone, the rift may be gone as well.

CSO_Storal says:
*Mruil*: Doctor, I hope you got a good view of the hypernova from main science.

OPS_Lowell says:
CNS: Perhaps we can... :;trails off lost in thought::

Host Doctor_Mruil says:
::hurries onto the bridge:: CSO: Oh yes, oh yes ... quite a view. You wouldn't believe the gigaquads of data we've compiled.

OPS_Lowell says:
::withdraws from the conversation and leans against the wall of the turbolift::

MO_Sarel says:
::checks over the FCO with a tricorder:: Sonja: Same here. We can administer a hypo to neutralize that. ::prepares a hypospray and hands it to her::

Sonja_Davore says:
::doesn't' have the authority to administer any medication and sighs::

TO_Masterson says:
::taps her combadge:: *CTO*: Sir, shields should be up to full if I did my job right.

CNS_Vekh says:
CO: Precisely, sir. From the debriefing with Commander Linard and her team, we learned that they were mistakenly assumed to be the original officers from the Resilient.

FCO_Romanov says:
::takes a deep breath::

CSO_Storal says:
XO: Shields are at 86 percent and weapons are online.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::watches Doctor Mruil enter the bridge and rolls his eyes slightly, tapping his combadge::

XO_Linard says:
:;watches the excited Doctor Mruil flash onto the bridge::

CSO_Storal says:
Mruil: I have a question for you doctor.

CNS_Vekh says:
::the turbolift reaches the bridge and Vekh moves to the side allowing the Captain to exit first::

Host Doctor_Mruil says:
::pauses and hurries up to the Commander:: CSO: Yes Commander?

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
CNS:  That explains the duplicate runabout Tiber with the different Quantum signature.  ::walks onto the bridge::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::taps the tactical controls before replying:: TO: Negative, Lieutenant … their is no noticeable improvement. Try again.

MO_Sarel says:
Sonja: Okay ... I'll do that. ::takes the hypo and does the injection::

TO_Masterson says:
*CTO*: Aye sir, Masterson out.

FCO_Romanov says:
::looks at Sonja and then over to Sarel:: Both: Did everyone make it?

CNS_Vekh says:
CO: Yes sirs … but still, there were daunting discoveries made by Commander Linard.

OPS_Lowell says:
::follows the Counselor as the doors begin to close::

CSO_Storal says:
Mruil: Would it be possible to modify a quantum torpedo to turn it into a quantum fissure torpedo … or at least make it appear to be one?

TO_Masterson says:
::returns to her work in engineering trying to figure out what is wrong::

EO_Caillau says:
::calling up from below:: CEO: Sir! I need a little help with the shields.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
All: Captain on the deck!

XO_Linard says:
::looks behind her and sees the Captain enter the bridge ... stands:: CO: Hello Captain, it's good to see you. ::smiles::

Sonja_Davore says:
FCO: Depends who everyone is... ::curious look:: …there were only two of you when you beamed in.

OPS_Lowell says:
::comes to attention::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
CNS:  What discoveries would those be?  All:  As you were.

CNS_Vekh says:
CO: Such as the mission of the Resilient being linked with the destruction of the Breen.

XO_Linard says:
::looks to the CNS, smiles and nods::

Host Doctor_Mruil says:
ACTION: As Caillau stands away from her panel to wave at the CEO, the panel explodes and tosses her against a wall hard.

FCO_Romanov says:
Sonja: Oh ... then that's everyone. ::smiles::

OPS_Lowell says:
::walks over to the CSO:: CSO: Do you have a minute, sir?

CEO_Yeung says:
::heads to the ladder:: Ens Caillau: Coming, Ensign!

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::smiles:: XO:  It's good to see you too, glad to have you back with us.

CSO_Storal says:
OPS: Not right now Lieutenant, can it wait?

Sonja_Davore says:
::smiles back slightly:: FCO: That is a relief to hear, sir.

CNS_Vekh says:
CO: Apparently the alternate reality differs greatly from our own reality. But I think Commander Linard can be more forthcoming in that regard.

XO_Linard says:
::lets out a relieved sigh:: CO: I can't tell you how glad I am to be back, sir.

Host Doctor_Mruil says:
::thumbs his chin thoughtfully:: CSO: Well ... I suppose, why?

OPS_Lowell says:
CSO: Yes sir...

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
CSO: Sir, sensors show an explosion has just occurred in main engineering!

Sonja_Davore says:
::scans the still unconscious Lieutenant Junior Grade::  MO: Hey ... look at this!  Their quantum signatures match ours!

CEO_Yeung says:
::halfway down the ladder he see the explosion:: Ens Caillau: Caillau! ::slides down the ladder::

OPS_Lowell says:
::walks to the OPS Station and relieves the resident officer::

XO_Linard says:
::smirks at the CNS:: CNS: Yes it was quite the experience.

FCO_Romanov says:
::looks at Sonja in confusion hearing her statement::

CSO_Storal says:
CTO: Get a medical team and damage control team on it.

TO_Masterson says:
::stops her work and runs over to the Ensign::

CEO_Yeung says:
::rushes over to Caillau and kneels next to her::

MO_Sarel says:
::looks at Sonja and then at him:: FCO: How do you feel?

Sonja_Davore says:
MO: And his condition has stabilized … his cells are metabolizing properly.

SO_Hammond says:
::turns and listens to what is going on::

CNS_Vekh says:
::puts on his emotionless mask:: XO: Any time you want to talk about it, sir, just drop me a word.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
CNS/XO:  That makes some of what Glinn Brakash said make sense.  Since the Breen had taken control over Cardassia.

CSO_Storal says:
Mruil: Well, seeing as it were, I believe it would give us a tactical advantage in case we get into another confrontation.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*MO*: Sickbay, we have a medical emergency in engineering. There has been an explosion. Please have a medical team report immediately.

OPS_Lowell says:
::keeps thinking about the rift::

CEO_Yeung says:
Ens Caillau: Nadia! Are you all right?

XO_Linard says:
CNS: I appreciate that Commander, but I'll be okay... ::glances at Storal::

MO_Sarel says:
Sonja: Oh really? ::looks at the readings::

TO_Masterson says:
::looks at the ensign:: CEO: What was she doing?

Sonja_Davore says:
::nods:: MO: The medication seems to be working.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
XO:  Did the resilient succeed with their plan to destroy the Breen?

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*TO*: What's going on, Lieutenant?

CSO_Storal says:
Mruil: Also ... would a Quantum Fissure torpedo be the catalyst in creating the death of a star.

Host Doctor_Mruil says:
::waves his hands as if that were a bad idea:: CSO: Oh, Commander ... no, no, no ... such a modification would take extensive work and time in the field. Just to make a single torpedo, I'd probably have to work for a week.

TO_Masterson says:
*CTO*: Not sure yet, sir.

MO_Sarel says:
*CTO*: A medical team will be on its way.

CNS_Vekh says:
CO/XO: Indeed. It was disturbing to learn that the rescuers of the alternate Glinn were alternate versions of Starfleet Officers. Such an association would be suspicious.

XO_Linard says:
CO: We don't know that yet, Captain. They got away before we could determine that. There is no trace of them in this system, nor any trace of the Reklar.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*TO*: What is the extent of the damage?

CSO_Storal says:
Mruil: Ok, what about making one look like it ... a fake one as it may.

Host Doctor_Mruil says:
::elbows Storal out of the way and makes his way to the science console:: CSO: Well ... gee ... we've never even simulated using a quantum fissure torpedo like that, it might be possible.

EO_Caillau says:
CEO: Ugh! Not feeling at all good, sir … but intact.

XO_Linard says:
CNS/CO: These weren't the kind of Starfleet officers that we know. I'd hardly say that "The Fleet" stands for the same things we do.

CSO_Storal says:
::rubs his side:: Mruil: Sure, get on it please.

TO_Masterson says:
*CTO*: A console blew up and someone is down.

CEO_Yeung says:
::nods at Caillau:: Ens Caillau: You'd better get to Sickbay ... just in case.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::runs a tactical diagnostic::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::remembers hearing about the Reklar’s appearance as well:: XO: From what Glinn Brakash was describing of the way the Fleet hunted Cardassians for fun, I must agree with you there.

Host Doctor_Mruil says:
::runs scans from the science console:: CSO: Well ... that all depends on how real you want the fake to look.

CSO_Storal says:
Mruil: As real as possible ... so that if someone were to scan it they would think it was the real thing.

EO_Caillau says:
::rubs her forehead as she gets up:: CEO: Oy … I don't think I need to sir, but ... very well.

FCO_Romanov says:
MO: Am I cleared ma'am?

Sonja_Davore says:
::looks at the unconscious officer on the bed:: FCO: If you don't mind me asking ... what's your name? ::grins:: And who would this be? ::points to the guy on the bed::

Host Doctor_Mruil says:
::thinks hard:: CSO: Hmm ... it's certainly possible. It would take a full team ... and probably a days work, but we could do it.

CNS_Vekh says:
XO/CO: I concur that some Cardassians may not be the nicest people to have around, but to use them for target practice would be a bit over the edge.

TO_Masterson says:
::sees the Ensign is alright:: CEO: If you have everything here, I'll try to figure out what went wrong.

CEO_Yeung says:
::calls over another engineer to help Caillau get to sickbay::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
XO:  What is our current location?

XO_Linard says:
CO: I only wish I knew if we foiled their plan to stop the Resilient. Once I learned of what they were going to do we all did our best to stop it.

FCO_Romanov says:
Sonja: I am Alexi Romanov, and he is Lieutenant Junior Grade Grayson.

CNS_Vekh says:
XO/CO: But then ... the same could be said about some Orion’s.

CSO_Storal says:
Mruil: Excellent ... take whomever you need of my staff and work on it please.

MO_Sarel says:
FCO: You appear to be fine, except for a few scrapes and bumps. Go ahead.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
CNS:  Exactly, and that is why he was so afraid of his being here.

CEO_Yeung says:
::nods at TO:: TO: All right, call me if you need anything.

Host Doctor_Mruil says:
ACTION: As Doctor Sarel works on the Lieutenant Junior Grade in sickbay she finds him oddly familiar and wonders where she has seen that face before.

TO_Masterson says:
CEO: Not a problem.

XO_Linard says:
CO: We are currently heading out of the Tartarus System.

TO_Masterson says:
::walks over to where she was working and tries to figure out why the console blew::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
XO:  Are we still close enough to Breen space that long-range sensors would detect anything?

Host Doctor_Mruil says:
CSO: Oh ... umm ... okay. ::backs away from the console confusedly::

Sonja_Davore says:
FCO: Oh, thank you.  I rather like knowing whom I'm working with.

CSO_Storal says:
Mruil: Is there a question, Doctor?

Sonja_Davore says:
FCO: I'm Sonja Davore, and this is Doctor Sarel.

FCO_Romanov says:
::gets up and brushes off his uniform into a somewhat presentable appearance:: Sonja: I can understand that ... thank you. ::leaves Sickbay and heads to the bridge::

OPS_Lowell says:
::runs routine diagnostics as he thinks::

Host Doctor_Mruil says:
::waves hands again:: CSO: No ... no questions ... I'll get right on it, Commander. ::turns and hurries off the bridge bound for the main science bay::

CNS_Vekh says:
CO/XO: Wouldn't it be advisable to scan the system in order to determine if the quantum rift remains?

FCO_Romanov says:
MO: Sonja: Nice to meet both of you. ::as he heads out::

Sonja_Davore says:
FCO: Uh, sir... ::watches him leave:: …you… ::looks at the MO::

FCO_Romanov says:
::stops::

CSO_Storal says:
Self: Good, this is going to work.

XO_Linard says:
CNS: Attacking anyone in the fashion the Resilient intended to attack the Breen is unethical ... no matter what they did.

SO_Hammond says:
::turns and goes back to work::

TO_Masterson says:
::goes over to where the CEO is:: CEO: I think I found the problem.

Sonja_Davore says:
MO: Is he allowed to do that?  ::looks at the door where Romanov exited::

FCO_Romanov says:
::steps back into sickbay:: Sonja: Everything ok?

CEO_Yeung says:
TO: What happened?

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::nods to Commander Vekh:: CSO:  Scan the system for any signs of the quantum rift.

CSO_Storal says:
*Mruil*: Another question Doctor ... would a Quantum fissure torpedo leave a distinct signature when it was used.

CNS_Vekh says:
XO: There's no question about that Commander. The problem is that what if they’ve crossed to our reality without us knowing it? They could cause an interstellar war.

FCO_Romanov says:
::shrugs and heads to the turbolift on his way to the bridge::

TO_Masterson says:
CEO: A shield emitter overloaded while we were both working on it.

OPS_Lowell says:
CNS: You won't find any ... its gone, I just checked.

CSO_Storal says:
CO: Aye sir. ::scans for the rift::

XO_Linard says:
CO: I believe now that we are out of the range of most of the radiation. We should be able to perform normal scans.

CSO_Storal says:
CO: Negative sir … nothing on sensors.

Sonja_Davore says:
::walks over to Lieutenant Junior Grade Grayson::

CNS_Vekh says:
::nods back to the Captain and heads towards OPS:: OPS: Are you sure of that, Mister Lowell?

MO_Sarel says:
::looks at Sonja:: Sonja: His readings were okay...

OPS_Lowell says:
::nods:: CNS: Unfortunately, I am very sure.

CSO_Storal says:
XO/CO: The probes are still out there. I’ve been using those for scans.

FCO_Romanov says:
::whistles as the turbolift stops and enters the bridge looking around with a smile::

CEO_Yeung says:
::sighs and scratches his head:: All right, we'll get a repair team to get that fixed...

XO_Linard says:
CNS: I dread to think of that Counselor, especially with one major war over with.

Host Doctor_Mruil says:
*CSO*: A quantum fissure torpedo emits a unique carrier wave, Commander. It's subtle ... but it's there. ::hurries down a corridor::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
OPS/CSO:  Is there any way to recreate the rift in order to return us to our reality?

Sonja_Davore says:
::nods::  MO: Although, this man seemed to have suffered more than the other.

OPS_Lowell says:
CO: As a matter of fact, I do have an idea about that.

CSO_Storal says:
*Mruil*: Thank you, Doctor.

TO_Masterson says:
CEO: Good, that's probably why we couldn't get full shields.

SO_Hammond says:
::starts humming as he works::

OPS_Lowell says:
CO/CSO: Sir, if we return to the Tartarus system and somehow emit the same radiation emissions that caused the quantum rift to open...

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
OPS:  Yes Mister Lowell?

CNS_Vekh says:
::pauses for a moment thinking:: XO: Sir, would you be suggesting that we go after the Resilient?

CSO_Storal says:
::uses the probes to scan for the quantum fissure torpedoes carrier wave in the Tartarus star::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*TO*: Progress report, Lieutenant?

CEO_Yeung says:
::nods:: TO: This'll put us back a bit. ::checks PADD::

Host Doctor_Mruil says:
ACTION: It suddenly occurs to Doctor Sarel where she recognizes this Lieutenant Junior Grade from ... she's seen him previously, in the sickbay aboard the Resilient.

MO_Sarel says:
Sonja: Maybe I am a little tired myself, and not thinking straight.

FCO_Romanov says:
::takes in the Apache’s bridge and then walks over to the XO::XO: Ensign Alexi Romanov reporting for duty, sir.

CEO_Yeung says:
TO: We'll get full shields in about an hour then.

OPS_Lowell says:
::scratches head:: CO/CSO: I think if we can figure that out and emit the right frequency ... we should be able to reopen the rift that got us here.

MO_Sarel says:
::looks at the Lieutenant Junior Grade, thinking she recognizes him from the Resilient::

TO_Masterson says:
*CTO*:  I figured out why the console blew.  A shield emitter overloaded.  The CEO says we'll have full shields in about an hour, sir.

Sonja_Davore says:
::nods:: MO: It's understandable seeing what you'd gone through for the past few days.

XO_Linard says:
CNS: I would, but first we have to try and determine where they went first.

Sonja_Davore says:
::sees the look of recognition on MO's face:: MO: What is it? ::draws her brows together::

TO_Masterson says:
CEO: I will leave you to that and return to the bridge if you do not need my assistance any longer.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*TO*: Very good, but we need targeting systems back online.

XO_Linard says:
::smiles:: FCO: Welcome aboard Ensign... ::shakes his hand::

FCO_Romanov says:
::stands near the XO, patiently waiting::

EO_Caillau says:
::walks into Sickbay with the help of another crewmember::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
OPS:  Work on your idea and coordinate with Commander Storal.

TO_Masterson says:
*CTO*: Understood sir.

CSO_Storal says:
::slams his fist down on the console:: All: Darn radiation.

OPS_Lowell says:
CO: Aye sir.

CEO_Yeung says:
::nods to the tactical officer:: TO: Very well, Lieutenant.

FCO_Romanov says:
::shakes her hand with a smile:: XO: Thank you, sir.

TO_Masterson says:
CEO: Looks like I'm not leaving just yet.

OPS_Lowell says:
::walks over to the CSO:: CSO: What radiation is that, sir?

XO_Linard says:
::waves her hand to the helm:: FCO: To your post, Ensign.

CSO_Storal says:
OPS: From the Hypernova Lieutenant.

TO_Masterson says:
::walks over to the console she was working at and tries to get the targeting systems back online::

SO_Hammond says:
::turns and looks at the CSO::

CEO_Yeung says:
::chuckles:: TO: Guess not. Come on, weapons is this way. ::leads the way::

Sonja_Davore says:
::turns at the sound of the doors opening::  MO: Doctor!

TO_Masterson says:
::follows the CEO::

FCO_Romanov says:
XO: Yes sir. ::walks over to Flight Control console::

OPS_Lowell says:
CSO: But sir, that radiation might hold the key to getting back to our own reality.

SO_Hammond says:
::stands as the FCO approaches:: FCO: She's all yours, Ensign.

MO_Sarel says:
Sonja: I know him! He's from the Resilient ... Lieutenant Commander Grayson. ::looks closely at him again::

CSO_Storal says:
::cracks his neck:: OPS: I don’t think its the radiation ... its the gamma rays, there is a difference.

FCO_Romanov says:
::nods to the science officer:: SO: I'm Ensign Romanov.

CEO_Yeung says:
TO: Let's see here... ::pulls up data::

Sonja_Davore says:
::looks at the MO with wide eyes::  MO: Resilient ... Glinn Brakash said something about! ::looks over at Caillau:: However, I think we have a more immediate problem, sir.

SO_Hammond says:
FCO: I'm Lieutenant Hammond, glad to meet you.

TO_Masterson says:
CEO: We need to get the targeting systems back online.

MO_Sarel says:
::looks at her:: Sonja: What?

CEO_Yeung says:
TO: Hmm ... the targeting system has a few connections loose. That's our problem.

Sonja_Davore says:
::rushes over to Caillau and helps her to a biobed::  MO: Looks like burns ... of some sort.

OPS_Lowell says:
CSO: No, No! ::starts getting excited:: I mean that some of the radiation must have reacted with the quantum reality and blurred the edge of the alternate reality and ours.

TO_Masterson says:
CEO: Ok, so what do we need to do to get it fixed?

FCO_Romanov says:
::sits down looking over the console and runs a diagnostic on navigation and control systems::

XO_Linard says:
*MO*: What is the status of our injured, Doctor?

MO_Sarel says:
::runs also to Caillau and checks her out::

CSO_Storal says:
OPS: I have a hunch it’s a quantum fissure torpedo.

EO_Caillau says:
::accepts help to biobed::

SO_Hammond says:
::walks over to the CSO:: CSO: Sir, where did you need me at the moment?

OPS_Lowell says:
::scratches his chin:: CSO: Possibly ... possibly. ::starts thinking::

CEO_Yeung says:
TO: It shouldn't take too long. I'll get my men on it.

MO_Sarel says:
*XO*: One is unconscious and the other was released. One is Lieutenant Junior Grade Grayson, sir.

CSO_Storal says:
::begins to run a simulation on the effects of a quantum fissure torpedo on a hypernova::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
OPS/CSO:  Do you think it was an effect of the combination of the quantum fissure torpedo and the gamma rays?

CEO_Yeung says:
::calls up:: CPO_Belron: Chief! How are those engines?

TO_Masterson says:
CEO: Ok, so what's the estimated time on that?

OPS_Lowell says:
CSO: If you tuned the torpedo to the exact resonance frequency of the residual carrier wave ... you might be able to reinitialize the rift.

CSO_Storal says:
SO: Work with Mister Lowell on his hypothesis.

XO_Linard says:
::stiffens at the name Grayson:: *MO*: Did you say ... Grayson, Doctor?

FCO_Romanov says:
::thinks he has a lot of reports to read over on the situation::

CPO_Belron says:
CEO: All done, boss!

CSO_Storal says:
CO: That’s exactly what happened, sir.

MO_Sarel says:
::checks on the plasma burns to see the severity::

Sonja_Davore says:
::hands the doctor a hypospray of anesthesia::  MO: She's in a lot of pain.

CEO_Yeung says:
CPO_Belron: Good, I need to repair the targeting connections in Jefferies tube 38.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
CSO:  Is there any way to recreate the effect?

SO_Hammond says:
CSO: Aye sir. ::looks over at Operations:: OPS: …and what is the hypothesis?

CPO_Belron says:
CEO: On it, sir!

Sonja_Davore says:
MO: That's a local anesthetic.

CEO_Yeung says:
::turns to Tactical Officer:: TO: We'll get it up and running in less than 30 minutes.

CNS_Vekh says:
::continues following the conversation on the bridge::

TO_Masterson says:
CEO: Good, that's what I needed to know.

MO_Sarel says:
Sonja: Thanks. ::administers the anesthesia::

CSO_Storal says:
CO: I’m running simulations on it now. I also have Doctor Mruil working on modifying a quantum torpedo to make it look like a quantum fissure torpedo.

XO_Linard says:
CO: Sir, I was curious … have you given any thought as to what we are going to do with the bodies of the Resilient's crew?

OPS_Lowell says:
SO: We think that a quantum fissure torpedo created a rift in the quantum realities

TO_Masterson says:
*CTO*: Sir, the targeting systems should be back online in less than 30 minutes.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*TO*: Well done Lieutenant, good job.

TO_Masterson says:
*CTO*: Sir, I am coming back to the bridge.

EO_Caillau says:
Sonja: It's not all that bad, just a few burns. ::smiles a bit weakly::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*TO*: Acknowledged.

CSO_Storal says:
*Mruil*: Would the carrier wave be present in the gamma radiation?

SO_Hammond says:
OPS: All right, lets get a working simulation of it and hope it proves something.

CNS_Vekh says:
CO/XO: Indeed there's some interesting psychological ramifications regarding this odd situation.

TO_Masterson says:
::nods to the CEO and the exits engineering and heads for the turbolift::

OPS_Lowell says:
SO: Let's get down to it ... where should we start? I think Mruil is in the Main Science lab.

MO_Sarel says:
*XO*: Yes sir, Grayson ... you know who I am talking about.

CEO_Yeung says:
::heads back to the damaged console and sighs::

Host Doctor_Mruil says:
::working on a quantum torpedo ... slips as the com surprises him and bangs the warhead with a spanner ... cringes:: *CSO*: What!?!

CSO_Storal says:
OPS: He is working on a project.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
XO: I think we should at least give them a proper burial before we return to our own reality.

CEO_Yeung says:
::helps another engineer replace it::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
::looks up:: CNS:  Yes Counselor?

Sonja_Davore says:
::watches Sarel work on the burn and memorizes her actions trying to remember how Doctor Sarel does the job::

TO_Masterson says:
::enters the turbolift:: TL: Bridge.

XO_Linard says:
CNS: Of course, that would be expected. What would they be?

OPS_Lowell says:
CSO: Ah ... can we use the Auxiliary Lab?

TO_Masterson says:
::she exits the TL and walks over to TAC 2::

CSO_Storal says:
*Mruil*: If someone were to use a quantum fissure torpedo as a catalyst for a hypernova ... would there be evidence of the carrier waves in the resulting gamma ray bursts.

CPO_Belron says:
::enters the Jeffries tube and begins repairs there::

XO_Linard says:
*MO*: I was afraid of that Doctor, but I assume he isn't the Grayson we know ... or ... knew?

MO_Sarel says:
::reconstructs the skin around the burn::

CNS_Vekh says:
CO: Keeping the corpses would, in a way, be an interference with the development of this reality. There is a Prime Directive concern here.

XO_Linard says:
::nods:: CO: Of course.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
TO: Check shield status.

OPS_Lowell says:
SO: Ready to get down to the Auxiliary lab?

TO_Masterson says:
CTO: Aye sir.

Sonja_Davore says:
::curious at what the Doctor and XO are talking about and then remembers:: Self: The Resilient.

Host Doctor_Mruil says:
::wipes his brow:: *CSO*: Commander, gamma ray bursts are of such an intense nature that the radiation contained pretty much destroys everything else. I doubt a carrier wave would remain intact within a gamma ray burst.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
CNS:  What would you suggest then?

TO_Masterson says:
::checks on the shields::

SO_Hammond says:
OPS: We can use the Auxiliary lab.  I believe this takes priority over everything else.

MO_Sarel says:
*XO*: Yes, it’s the Commander … I’d recognize him anywhere.

XO_Linard says:
*MO*: What is his condition?

CNS_Vekh says:
XO/CO: Plus, if the Resilient is nowhere in the sector to be seen, the possibility that it has passed to our universe is not ruled out.

OPS_Lowell says:
::grins:: SO: Great minds think alike, huh?

CSO_Storal says:
*Mruil*: You have a point ... sorry for the disruption, Doctor.

SO_Hammond says:
::smiles:: OPS: Sounds about right. ::heads toward the turbolift::

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
CNS:  That much we have considered, Commander.

MO_Sarel says:
*XO*: He is still unconscious, but we administered a hypospray to neutralize his radiation exposure.

Sonja_Davore says:
::tries to smile reassuringly at the patient, Ensign Caillau, however uncertain since she doesn't know this officer that well::

CNS_Vekh says:
CO: No matter how different this reality may be from ours, those deceased officers may have families that would like to know what happened to them.

OPS_Lowell says:
::follows the SO into the turbolift::

XO_Linard says:
CNS/CO: They did go rather far into the star before it collapsed. It would be safe to say they could now be where we are supposed to be.

OPS_Lowell says:
TL: Deck 5.

CEO_Yeung says:
::checks status on shields and nods with satisfaction::

TO_Masterson says:
CTO: We have shields at full.

MO_Sarel says:
::looks at her:: Sonja: He was on the Resilient. And, hey ... thanks for helping me out here. ::smiles::

Host Doctor_Mruil says:
ACTION: Rather suddenly shields pop back into place, as the last of the emitters come online. The OPS and Tactical panels cheerily bleep away this accomplishment by the Apache's CEO.

CNS_Vekh says:
CO: If the remaining crew of the Resilient pursues their objective … and as per Commander Linard's description … they were rather fanatics about it...

CEO_Yeung says:
*CSO*: Commander, shields are back up and ready.

MO_Sarel says:
::continues working on the burn carefully::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::continues to re-align targeting systems, trying to fight through the fog of the recent radiation poisoning to try and figure out a way home:: TO: Thank you, Lieutenant.

Sonja_Davore says:
MO: Of course Doctor, it is part of my study and it's a pleasure to work in sickbay, sir.

FCO_Romanov says:
::hears the Operations panel beep and looks over::

CNS_Vekh says:
CO/XO: The Resilient may be preparing itself to destroy the Breen Homeworld in our reality as we talk about it.

CSO_Storal says:
*CEO*: Excellent work, Jon.

Host CO_Tyler-Turnbull says:
XO/CNS:  Then it means that we have little time to return to our reality and attempt to stop their attack.

CSO_Storal says:
CO/XO: Sir ... shields are back online.

CPO_Belron says:
::closes up panel:: *CEO*: Boss, targeting systems are all fixed.

CEO_Yeung says:
*CPO*: Good work, chief.

CNS_Vekh says:
CNS: Assuming the worst-case scenario is the most likely … it may even be too late by now.

CEO_Yeung says:
*CTO*: You should have targeting now, Lieutenant.

Host Doctor_Mruil says:
ACTION: In sickbay, Lieutenant JG Grayson groggily comes to and sits up on the biobed. He glances around sickbay, wondering where he is and holds his head with one hand. You wouldn't believe the dream he just had.

Host Doctor_Mruil says:
