Star Trek: Apache - Episode #13
Week # 4
Mission: "Questions of Loyalty"

Host Jafo says:
The crew has already willingly participated in the series of blood tests as per orders from Lt Soria. While the Apache was still in space dock, Captain Madred appeared in Main Engineering to find out when the ship would be ready for maximum warp.

Host Jafo says:
After hurrying the repairs along, he then proceeded to the bridge and took command of the Apache taking it out of space dock and on a course for the Romulan Neutral Zone, much to the confusion of the crew.

Host Jafo says:
To further the crew's concerns, Captain Madred and Lieutenant Soria got into an argument over why the Apache had left space dock. Suddenly, the bridge erupted in a fierce firefight as Captain Madred was revealed to be the clone in question. He made his escape into the Captain's Ready Room and left the ship via the Captain's escape pod.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::at tactical one, monitoring the USS Heroic and the shuttle ahead of the Apache::

CEO_Yeung says:
::in Main Engineering, sending a repair team to the bridge::

CMO_Naegle says:
::in Sickbay attending to Ensign Romanov::

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The USS Heroic comes alongside the Apache as the escape pod continues on course towards the shuttlecraft.

SO_Hammond says:
::in main science going over sensor logs::

MO_Sarel says:
::in sickbay helping with Romanov::

FCO_Romanov says:
::still out of it from being stunned a few times::

Host CSO_Storal says:
::standing on the Bridge::  CTO: Identify that shuttle and get a lock on that pod!

CEO_Yeung says:
*EO*: Mister Powers, I'm sending a repair team to the bridge. I want you to meet up with them there and assess the damage.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
TO: Lieutenant, monitor that escape pod. Try and get a tractor beam on it.

EO_Powers says:
::enters the bridge::

TO_Masterson says:
CTO: Aye sir.

EO_Powers says:
*CEO*: Yes sir.

CMO_Naegle says:
FCO: Well Mister Romanov, you were quite lucky.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::scans the shuttle::

CEO_Yeung says:
*EO*: Oh, and Powers?

CMO_Naegle says:
::applies a dermal regenerator to FCO's wound.

Host CSO_Storal says:
*SO*: Mister Hammond I need you to look into the make up of the Silver Blood. Can that clone change shape at will?

FCO_Romanov says:
::squinting from the light, his head throbbing:: CMO: Getting shot in the back isn't what I consider lucky.

TO_Masterson says:
::uses sensors to monitor the escape pod and try to get a tractor beam on the escape pod::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
CSO: Sir, the shuttle seems to be of Tzenkethi design.

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: For some reason, every effort to lock onto the escape pod with a tractor beam fails, as the escape pod seems to be polarizing its hull to avoid a lock-on.

FCO_Romanov says:
CMO: But lucky to be alive, I agree.

SO_Hammond says:
*CSO*: Will do, sir.

MO_Sarel says:
::looks at Romanov:: FCO: Yes ... I was just going to say that. ::smiles::

TO_Masterson says:
CTO: Sir, I cannot get a tractor beam on the escape pod.

CMO_Naegle says:
::smiles at the FCO:: FCO:  That's what I meant.  How do you feel?

SO_Hammond says:
::brings up all the research he has on the Silver Blood::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
TO: Hmm, try modulating the beam on this frequency. ::transmits data to tactical two::

FCO_Romanov says:
CMO: I have a headache, feel a bit woozy, but they need Main Engineering up there.

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: A beeping starts up at the security console, alerting Cha`Dak to a recent unauthorized access of the main computer.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::investigates the unauthorized access::

Host Lt_Soria says:
::wanders over to a chair and sits, holding his head as it spins::

EO_Powers says:
*CEO*: Sir?

CEO_Yeung says:
*EO*: Restrain yourself, or I might lose restraint of myself ... on you.

TO_Masterson says:
::tries to modulate the beam on the frequency received::

EO_Powers says:
*CEO*: Understood sir.

Host Lt_Soria says:
ACTION: The tractor beam locks on, then suddenly a feedback pulse breaks the pod free and goes up the beam to the emitter blowing it out.

SO_Hammond says:
Self: What the… *CSO*: Sir, some of my research on the Silver Blood is missing.  I'll try and find my back-up files.

Host CSO_Storal says:
COM: Heroic: Captain Madred, the clone has escaped in the Captains personal escape pod and is heading for that shuttle.

MO_Sarel says:
CMO/FCO: So, what happened up there anyways?

CEO_Yeung says:
::resumes getting the engines powered up::

FCO_Romanov says:
MO: Someone shot me, other than that I have no idea.

Host CSO_Storal says:
*SO*: Say again?

Host CPT_Madred says:
@::on the Heroics bridge, standing with that vessels CO:: COM: Apache: Recover him, Commander Storal … dead or alive.

CMO_Naegle says:
::grabs a hypospray of anti-nausea medication and applies it to the FCO's neck:: FCO: That should take care of the wooziness.  If you feel up to it, I'll give you clearance to return to duty.  But any more major symptoms come up, come back and see me.  Okay?

SO_Hammond says:
*CSO*: My files are missing sir!

MO_Sarel says:
FCO: I see.

FCO_Romanov says:
::sits up:: CMO: Yes ma'am, thank you.

Host Lt_Soria says:
::stumbles towards a turbolift holding his jaw and muttering that he needs to get to the medical bay::

Host CSO_Storal says:
TO: Mister Masterson, I need you to man Flight until Mister Romanov returns.

FCO_Romanov says:
MO: Thank you.

CMO_Naegle says:
::helps the FCO off the biobed:: FCO: Okay, go fly this bird!

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::sees that the emitter has blown and taps his badge:: *CEO*: Bridge to Engineering…

MO_Sarel says:
FCO: No problem, glad you're okay.

TO_Masterson says:
CSO: Aye sir.

Host CSO_Storal says:
*SO*: Who accessed the core?

FCO_Romanov says:
::smiles, nodding and makes his way to the bridge::

CEO_Yeung says:
*CTO*: Yeung here, bridge. What is it?

Host Lt_Soria says:
::steps into the turbolift:: TL: Sickbay...

Host CSO_Storal says:
TO: Set an intercept course. We need to get that shuttle.

TO_Masterson says:
::steps away from tactical two and over to flight control::

Host CSO_Storal says:
CTO: Open a channel to the shuttle.

SO_Hammond says:
*CSO*: I'll check right now, sir.  ::checks to see who accessed the core::

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

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*CEO*: Standby.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::opens a channel to the shuttle on all frequencies::

FCO_Romanov says:
::mumbles:: Self: What’s next on my medical record ... a trip out the airlock?

CMO_Naegle says:
MO: Whew, I'm glad he's all right.  Now we still need to finish these blood tests, just in case there's another clone on board.

TO_Masterson says:
::taps the console and sets an intercept course for the shuttle::

EO_Powers says:
::takes the engineering post on the bridge and watches the action::

CEO_Yeung says:
*CTO*: Understood.

TO_Masterson says:
CSO: Course set, sir.

MO_Sarel says:
CMO: Yes, good idea.

FCO_Romanov says:
::steps out onto the bridge:: CSO: Permission to resume my duties?

Host CSO_Storal says:
COM: Shuttle:  This is Commander Storal of the USS Apache, you will power all systems down and prepare to be boarded.  If you try to evade us, we will fire on you.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
CSO: Channel open, sir.

Host CSO_Storal says:
FCO: Take your post.

FCO_Romanov says:
::walks over to the Flight Controls:: TO: I'll take it from here.

Host Lt_Soria says:
ACTION: In response to Commander Storal's message, the shuttle powers up their systems and starts heading towards the escape pod cutting down their closure rate.

TO_Masterson says:
FCO: Of course.

TO_Masterson says:
::stands and walks back to tactical two::

CMO_Naegle says:
MO: Why don't you take the samples of the junior department workers, and I'll take the chiefs.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*CEO*: Mister Yeung, a feedback pulse from the escape pod caused one of the tractor beam emitters to blow out. Can you take a look?

FCO_Romanov says:
TO: Thanks. ::sits down, back a little sore::

Host CSO_Storal says:
CTO: Lock weapons onto the shuttle and prepare to fire on my mark.

MO_Sarel says:
CMO: Okay sir.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::nods to the TO approvingly::

FCO_Romanov says:
::looks around, wondering where Captain Madred is::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
CSO: Aye sir.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::brings weapons online and targets the shuttle::

Host CSO_Storal says:
FCO: Get us there before the shuttle.

TO_Masterson says:
::monitors the sensors and the shuttle::

SO_Hammond says:
*CSO*: Sir, the access came from Ensign Xavier's quarters.

CMO_Naegle says:
::walks into the laboratory and grabs the sample from Captain Tyler:: Self: Might as well start at the top!

Host CSO_Storal says:
*SO*: When?

FCO_Romanov says:
::sets a course for the pod and closes on it:: CSO: Aye sir.

Host Lt_Soria says:
ACTION: The Apache closes quickly on the escape pod and can maintain its pace easily.

CEO_Yeung says:
*CTO*: I'll get right on it.

SO_Hammond says:
*CSO*: I'm working on it.

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: As Doctor Naegle gets the sample she hears an odd noise in the area of the stored samples.

FCO_Romanov says:
::moves to position them between the pod and the shuttle::

Host CSO_Storal says:
COM: Shuttle: I repeat ... we will fire on you. Stand down.

SO_Hammond says:
*CSO*: Within the last few hours.

CEO_Yeung says:
::gets a small team together and departs main engineering::

Host CSO_Storal says:
CTO: Any response from the shuttle?

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The shuttle winks out of existence as it apparently activates a cloaking device. At the same time the escape pods engines cut out ... having run out of fuel.

CMO_Naegle says:
::hears noise near the lab store sample case:: Self: What the heck?

FCO_Romanov says:
CSO: I am going to position us between the pod and the shuttle… ::sees the shuttle disappear::

CMO_Naegle says:
::turns around to investigate::

MO_Sarel says:
::pulls out the blood samples of junior officers::

Host Lt_Soria says:
::stumbles into sickbay, cradling his jaw, looking around for some medical assistance::

Host CSO_Storal says:
CTO: Scan the pod for the clone.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
CSO: The shuttle's cloaked, sir. 

CEO_Yeung says:
::arrives at the damaged tractor emitter::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::scans the pod for the clone::

Host CSO_Storal says:
CTO: Can you track it?

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
TO: Track that shuttle; try emitting a tachyon pulse.

CEO_Yeung says:
::examines the damage::

TO_Masterson says:
CTO: Aye sir.

Host Lt_Soria says:
ACTION: Yeung finds the inner workings of the tractor emitter swarming with nano-probes.

CEO_Yeung says:
::raises an eyebrow:: Self: What the...

FCO_Romanov says:
::comes to a stop next to the pod::

SO_Hammond says:
*CSO*: Sir, should I investigate the Ensign's quarters?

CMO_Naegle says:
::walks over to the case and looks at it::

CEO_Yeung says:
::gets out a tricorder and scans the nanoprobes::

Host CSO_Storal says:
FCO: Beam the pod into the shuttlebay.  TO: Get a team down there and secure it.

TO_Masterson says:
::emits a tachyon pulse trying to track the shuttle::

Host Lt_Soria says:
ACTION: Doctor Naegle hears a small, repeating, noise deep in the storage section; a quiet, metallic sound.

MO_Sarel says:
::sees Soria enter:: Soria: Lieutenant ... let me help you, sir.

FCO_Romanov says:
CSO: Aye sir.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
TO: As soon as you get the coordinates, target their warp core.

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: A sensor shadow whisks by, below the Apache only meters from the vessels hull. It is only detectable because of its extremely close range.

TO_Masterson says:
CTO: Aye sir.

FCO_Romanov says:
::opens shuttlebay doors, using the bays tractor beam to bring the pod in::

MO_Sarel says:
Soria: Sit here, sir ... on the biobed and let me look at that jaw.

Host Lt_Soria says:
::goes over to a biobed and sits:: MO: Thanks a lot Doctor Sarel, I had no idea the punch that clone could throw.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
CSO: Sir! A vessel just passed within meters of the Apache.

FCO_Romanov says:
::attempts to beam the pod into the shuttlebay::

CEO_Yeung says:
*CSO*: Bridge? Yeung here. I'm at the damage tractor emitter, and the insides are swarming with nanoprobes!

TO_Masterson says:
::locates the shuttle and targets the warp core::

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The Tachyon pulse disrupts the shuttles cloaking field and reveals the vessel heading away from Apache, back towards the Starbase.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
CSO: Ready to fire, sir.

CMO_Naegle says:
::hears noise:: Self: Okay, this is spooky.  That sounds almost metallic.

Host CSO_Storal says:
CTO: Target their engines ... and fire.

TO_Masterson says:
CTO: Weapons targeted and locked on the shuttle's warp core.

MO_Sarel says:
Soria: Clone? You found the clone ... and it hit you? ::examines his jaw with the medical tricorder::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::fires all phasers::

Host CSO_Storal says:
*CEO*: Can you identify the origin of the nanoprobes?

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The escape pod is beamed aboard the Apache.

Host CSO_Storal says:
CTO: Get a team to the shuttlebay and secure the pod.

CEO_Yeung says:
*CSO*: Working on it, but so far tricorder scans reveal nothing.

FCO_Romanov says:
::immediately erects a forcefield around the shuttlebay:: CSO: Pod on board, I have erected a forcefield.

SO_Hammond says:
::grabs a tricorder and heads for Ensign Xavier's quarters::

Host CSO_Storal says:
*CEO*: Acknowledged.

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The Apache's phasers strike their target and damage the engines. The ship is limited to low warp and its speed begins to drop. The Heroic heads out towards it.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
TO: Lieutenant, assemble a team and get down there immediately.

CMO_Naegle says:
*CSO*: Commander Storal? Could you come to Sickbay? I think I might have an intruder.

TO_Masterson says:
CTO: Aye sir.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::erects a level 10 forcefield around the bay that the shuttle is docked in::

MO_Sarel says:
Soria: You have a small fracture, sir.

Host CSO_Storal says:
CMO: I'll send a security team there, Doctor.  I can’t leave the bridge...

CEO_Yeung says:
*CSO*: I'll try to capture a sample of them.

Host CSO_Storal says:
CTO: Intruder alert in Sickbay.

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: As Doctor Naegle digs through the samples for the noise, she comes across a small metallic sphere. It is roughly fist sized and beeps every other second.

TO_Masterson says:
::walks to the turbolift and enters:: TL: Shuttlebay. ::the turbolift moves toward the TL::

CMO_Naegle says:
*CSO* Thank you, sir.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*Lt Verall*: Lieutenant I need you in sickbay, now!

Host CSO_Storal says:
COM: Shuttle: Stand down and prepare to be boarded.

Host Lt_Soria says:
::holds his jaw gingerly:: MO: Oh ... no wonder it hurts so badly.

TO_Verall says:
*CTO*: On my way, sir! ::heads towards sickbay::

Host CSO_Storal says:
COM: Heroic: Sir,  we have the pod and have secured it in our shuttlebay.

TO_Masterson says:
::exits the turbolift and meets a security team and the shuttlebay doors::

Host CSO_Storal says:
CTO: Scan that shuttle?

MO_Sarel says:
Soria: Yes, let me give you something for the pain. ::injects a hypo::

FCO_Romanov says:
::moves them towards the shuttle aware of the Heroics position::

CEO_Yeung says:
::gets a hermetic capsule and a tool, and gets a sample of the nanoprobes::

TO_Masterson says:
::taps her Combadge:: *CTO*: We are in front of the shuttlebay doors, sir.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::scans the shuttle::

CMO_Naegle says:
::finds the sphere:: MO: Um, Doctor Sarel. I need you and Lieutenant Soria to step out of Sickbay.  I'll explain later.  Bring whatever is needed.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*TO*: Standby, Lieutenant.

TO_Masterson says:
*CTO*: Aye sir.

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The beeping of the sphere seems to be speeding up.

TO_Verall says:
::approaching Sickbay::

MO_Sarel says:
CMO: Uh ... aye sir. ::grabs a medkit and whatever else she needs::

SO_Hammond says:
::begins to scan the area outside Ensign Xavier's quarters::

Host CSO_Storal says:
*SO*: Mister Hammond, status report?

MO_Sarel says:
Lt. Soria: Guess we need to leave, sir.

CEO_Yeung says:
::resumes his scans of the nanoprobes::

TO_Masterson says:
::has the Security team at ease awaiting orders::

TO_Verall says:
::enters sickbay seeing the CMO, MO, and Lieutenant Soria on their way out::

Host Lt_Soria says:
ACTION: The beeping of the sphere comes to a crescendo and stops .... pauses ... and then the sphere explodes sending white hot shrapnel ripping through the sickbay before Doctor Sarel or Soria get  a chance to go anywhere. Little pellets puncture the walls of sickbay and rip through the corridor going through other walls.

SO_Hammond says:
*CSO*: I'm scanning the area around Ensign Xavier's quarters, nothing yet sir.

TO_Verall says:
::screams as shrapnel punctures his uniform::

Host CSO_Storal says:
::feels the ship shudder:: All: What was that?

FCO_Romanov says:
::his console beeps:: CSO: Sir, there has been an explosion in Sickbay!

TO_Verall says:
::is thrown to the floor::

Host CSO_Storal says:
*CEO*: We need a damage control team in Sickbay!

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: The whole of the Apache shudders from the explosion and the crewmembers in the area are thrown to the ground. Some hit by shrapnel, others knocked unconscious by debris.

SO_Hammond says:
Self: That didn't feel right.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
CSO: Sir, sensors indicate an explosion in Sickbay.

Host CSO_Storal says:
FCO: What’s the damage?

CEO_Yeung says:
*CSO*: I'm on it!

MO_Sarel says:
::feels the force of the explosion, knocking her  a few feet across the corridor::

EO_Powers says:
::checks consol to see what happened::

CEO_Yeung says:
::gets his team to follow him and hurries down to Sickbay::

FCO_Romanov says:
::checks for hull breaches:: CSO: Computers on it...

TO_Verall says:
::is unconscious::

Host CSO_Storal says:
*CMO/MO*: Bridge to Sickbay … respond!

Host Computer says:
All: Explosive decompression of deck 9, detected...

SO_Hammond says:
::goes to the nearest console to find what happened::  Self: Oh man

MO_Sarel says:
::is knocked unconscious for several minutes::

FCO_Romanov says:
::erects a forcefield around it fast:: CSO: We have a hull breach on deck 9, forcefields are in place!

SO_Hammond says:
::runs to the nearest turbolift:: TL: Sickbay.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*TO*: I need you to evacuate deck 9, K’arana. Now!

CEO_Yeung says:
::arrives in front of sickbay and shields his face from flames::

TO_Masterson says:
*CTO*: Aye sir!

Host CSO_Storal says:
FCO: Have the damage control teams arrived?

TO_Masterson says:
SEC TEAM: Evacuate this deck now!

SO_Hammond says:
*CSO*: Sir, I'm heading down to sickbay right now.

Host CSO_Storal says:
*SO*: Understood, Mister Hammond.

CEO_Yeung says:
*CSO*: I'm at sickbay! Looks like an explosion!

CEO_Yeung says:
Team: Get some extinguishers here! Now!

TO_Masterson says:
::checks the shuttlebay area to make sure nobody else is there::

Host CSO_Storal says:
*CEO*: What caused the explosion?

FCO_Romanov says:
CSO: Sir, I am reading serious damage all over Deck 9, Science labs ... Sickbay.

SO_Hammond says:
::exits the turbolift and looks around, grabbing the first medkit he finds and starts helping injured personnel::

Host CSO_Storal says:
*SO*: Check out the science labs instead of sickbay.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*Lt. Verall*: Verall … report!

CEO_Yeung says:
*CSO*: Can't tell exactly. Looks like the walls have been punctured everywhere.

TO_Masterson says:
::runs to the turbolift and enters:: TL: Bridge. ::the turbolift moves toward the bridge::

FCO_Romanov says:
::makes sure the forcefields are holding around the hull breaches::

SO_Hammond says:
*CSO*: Sir, there is no one room here anymore.

CEO_Yeung says:
::hurries over to the bodies on the floor::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*TO*: Report.

Host CSO_Storal says:
COM: Heroic: Sir, we have sustained severe damage  on deck nine. We need to head back to the starbase immediately. Can you handle the shuttle?

CEO_Yeung says:
::checks the Sarel's pulse, then Soria's::

Host CSO_Storal says:
FCO: Set a course back to Starbase 366.

TO_Verall says:
::is bleeding heavily::

*CTO*: Everyone is okay, sir. The shuttlebay area has been cleared.  I’m on my way back to the bridge now.

FCO_Romanov says:
::sets course:: CSO: Course set, ready to engage.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*TO*: Deck 9?

MO_Sarel says:
::starts to come around ... wakes up, but can barely move::

Host CSO_Storal says:
*SO*:  Do what you can.

SO_Hammond says:
::slowly makes his way towards the science labs, helping people along the way::

Host CPT_Madred says:
@COM: Apache: Understood, Apache. We'll take care of the situation here. Looks like a Tzenkethi plot ... we've taken the pilot and a passenger into custody. A Gul Suppec ... I'll give you all the details when we return to Starbase.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
::checks sensors for the Heroic::

TO_Masterson says:
*CTO*: Yes sir.

SO_Hammond says:
*CSO*: Will do, sir.

FCO_Romanov says:
CSO: Should we signal the Heroic?

CEO_Yeung says:
*CSO*: We've got wounded here! Doctors Naegle and Sarel, Lieutenant Soria and Verall...

Host CSO_Storal says:
COM: Heroic: Aye Sir.

MO_Sarel says:
::opens her eyes seeing the CEO and hearing him::

Host CSO_Storal says:
FCO: Notify the Starbase we are going to need  priority clearance.

CEO_Yeung says:
::leans over Sarel and gently lays a hand on her shoulder:: MO: Take it easy, doctor. You're badly hurt.

EO_Powers says:
CSO: Permission to go help the wounded, sir?

FCO_Romanov says:
CSO: Aye sir. ::engages course at maximum speed::

MO_Sarel says:
::in a weak voice:: CEO: I'm alive? What happened?

Host CSO_Storal says:
COM: Heroic: We have casualties and unable to help with them.  Our medical staff is injured.. can you assist?

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: Immediately upon engaging the engines, Ensign Romanov finds that maximum warp isn't what is used to be.

CEO_Yeung says:
MO: An explosion of some kind.

FCO_Romanov says:
COM: Starbase 366: This is USS Apache, we have sustained serious damage and require emergency docking procedures. Also need medical teams standing by.

*CSO*: Sir, there is serious damage in the area, with numerous casualties.

CEO_Yeung says:
MO: Hang on, I'll try to salvage any medical equipment to use.

TO_Masterson says:
::exits the turbolift onto the bridge and walks over to tactical two::

EO_Powers says:
CSO:  Permission to leave the bridge?

MO_Sarel says:
CEO: Explosion ... in sickbay? Where's Doctor Naegle?

Host CSO_Storal says:
::sighs and says a prayer:: * SO*: Acknowledged ... we are headed back to the Starbase.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
TO: Shield status, Lieutenant?

FCO_Romanov says:
::looks down, noticing something isn't right about the warp drive:: CSO: Sir something is wrong, our maximum speed is off from normal.

Host CSO_Storal says:
EO: Granted.

TO_Masterson says:
::brings up the shield status and sensor status::

MO_Sarel says:
CEO: ...and Lieutenant Soria? ::wants to lift her head and look around but can't just yet.

CEO_Yeung says:
::looking around:: MO: She's unconscious, but still alive. Soria too I think.

EO_Powers says:
::leaves bridge:: TL: Sickbay

Host CSO_Storal says:
*CEO*: How bad are Doctor Naegle and Lieutenant Sarel?

SO_Hammond says:
::begins to set up an area for the injured in the least damaged part of the deck::

TO_Masterson says:
CTO: Shields and sensors are fully functional, sir.

MO_Sarel says:
::sighs with relief:: CEO: Good.

CEO_Yeung says:
*CSO*: Doctor Sarel just came to, but Doctor Naegle is unconscious.

FCO_Romanov says:
::checks warp core readings, having slaved Engineering console to Flight Control:: CSO: We are only doing Warp 4...

Host CSO_Storal says:
*CEO*: What about Lieutenant Soria?

CEO_Yeung says:
*CSO*: Unconscious as well, but alive.

EO_Powers says:
CEO: Is their any medical equipment still working?

Host Lt_Soria says:
ACTION: The Heroic comes alongside the Apache and beams over their medical teams, keeping pace with the damaged ship as it returns to starbase.

SO_Hammond says:
::walks up to the CEO:: CEO: I have set up an area for injured personnel over there, where it has the least damage.

CEO_Yeung says:
EO: I hope so, look around. There's bound to be something.

MO_Sarel says:
::remembers:: CEO: Wait ... I saw Lieutenant Verall enter sickbay just as I was leaving.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
CSO: Sir, what shall we do with the shuttle?

CEO: Aye sir. ::leads the way::

Host CSO_Storal says:
CTO: Well, we had your team there but with the explosion your team left the shuttlebay.  Is the pod still secured?

CEO_Yeung says:
::chuckles:: MO: That's what happens when medics get hurt...

Host CPT_Madred says:
@COM: Apache: Understood, Apache. The Heroic will keep pace. You should be receiving our medical staff and supplies now.

FCO_Romanov says:
::does an internal scan of Main Engineering::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
CSO: There is a level 10 forcefield surrounding that bay, sir.

Host Lt_Soria says:
ACTION: Medical Officers from the Heroic begin to show up in the damaged areas of the Apache tending to injured crewmembers.

MO_Sarel says:
::laughs a little bit:: Self: Ouch!

CEO_Yeung says:
::follows the SO along with his team carrying the other injured::

Host CSO_Storal says:
CTO: Good ... any ideas on what caused the explosion Lieutenant?

CEO_Yeung says:
::gently lays Sarel down as the Heroics medics tend to her::

EO_Powers says:
::goes over to where the wounded are being placed and starts healing::

SO_Hammond says:
::looks up as help arrives:: CEO: Look, the cavalry has arrived.

TO_Verall says:
::is shaken back into wakefulness by a Medical officer from the Heroic::

CEO_Yeung says:
SO: Thank goodness.

TO_Masterson says:
CTO: Sir, I could go check on the pod.

FCO_Romanov says:
::does a complete Flight systems diagnostics::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
CSO: Unsure at this moment, sir.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
TO: Yes, Lieutenant, please do so.

TO_Masterson says:
CTO: Aye sir.

Host CSO_Storal says:
*CEO/SO*: We are getting assistance from the Heroic ... they should be there soon.

MO_Sarel says:
CEO: I had a medkit in my hand ... did you find it among the rubble? Maybe we can use it if it’s not in pieces.

SO_Hammond says:
*CSO*: They have arrived, sir.

TO_Masterson says:
::walks to the turbolift and has it take her to the shuttlebay::

CEO_Yeung says:
*CSO*: Aye, they just got here sir. They are tending to the wounded.

CEO_Yeung says:
MO: I'll go check. You stay here and get better. ::smiles::

EO_Powers says:
::moves on to the MO::

Host CSO_Storal says:
FCO: What’s our ETA to the Starbase?

SO_Hammond says:
CEO: We sure seem to break things as fast as they get fixed.  ::smiles::

TO_Masterson says:
::exits the turbolift and walks to the shuttlebay the pod is in::

TO_Verall says:
::after being treated for his wounds, he groggily gets to his feet, looking around him at the destruction:: *CTO*: Verall to the bridge.

CEO_Yeung says:
SO: Never a dull moment for an engineer on this ship, Lieutenant. ::grins::

MO_Sarel says:
Self: Darn, this is so inconvenient ... getting blown up.

Host CSO_Storal says:
*CEO*: Acknowledged, I also need a complete damage assessment and begin investigating the cause of the explosion.

FCO_Romanov says:
CSO: Four hours at full impulse … engineering is reporting no problems, yet we don't have full warp capability … permission to go to Main Engineering, sir.

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*TO Verall*: Go ahead, Lieutenant.

TO_Masterson says:
::arrives in front of the shuttlebay doors and taps her combadge::

CEO_Yeung says:
EO: Come on Powers, lets go check out the explosion area.

CEO_Yeung says:
*CSO*: On it, sir.

Host CSO_Storal says:
FCO:  Granted, have someone take over.

TO_Verall says:
*CTO*: Sir, I’m not sure exactly what happened, but Sickbay is in pieces.

TO_Masterson says:
*CTO*: I am in front of the shuttlebay, sir.

EO_Powers says:
::gets out some equipment and starts working on the MO::  MO: This may hurt a bit.

FCO_Romanov says:
::nods to Ensign Wright, who comes to sit at the Flight Control Console::

Host Lt_Soria says:
::sits up among the rubble:: MO: What happened?

MO_Sarel says:
::tries to lift her head again to look around::

Host CSO_Storal says:
CTO: Any word from the shuttlebay?

FCO_Romanov says:
::runs to the turbolift:: TL: Main Engineering.

CEO_Yeung says:
::heads on to sickbay with a tool kit::

MO_Sarel says:
EO: Oh goody ... go ahead.

EO_Powers says:
CEO: I'll just give Doctor Sarel some painkillers.

CEO_Yeung says:
::nods back to EO::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
CSO: Lieutenant Masterson has just arrived, sir. Shall I authorize her to enter?

SO_Hammond says:
::seeing everything is being taken care of, begins to go through the science labs::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*TO*: Are you armed, Lieutenant?

CEO_Yeung says:
::enters the area of what used to be sickbay::

Host CSO_Storal says:
CTO: Yes, have the phasers set to heavy stun.

CEO_Yeung says:
::flips out a tricorder and scans the area::

TO_Masterson says:
*CTO*: I have my phaser, sir.

MO_Sarel says:
Lt. Soria: There was an explosion. Maybe we had an unhappy patient who wanted to get back at us.

FCO_Romanov says:
::exits the turbolift at a jog and enters main engineering, explaining to an engineer what is going on::

Host Jafo says:
ACTION: Yeung finds mostly debris. The area is very difficult to identify as sickbay. Broken glass and tritanium litter the area.

EO_Powers says:
MO: I've been called to do my day job … so I’ll give you some painkillers and get one of the other medics to finish up.

CEO_Yeung says:
::shakes his head::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*TO*: Very well. Set to stun, and enter with caution. Keep an open line, Lieutenant.

Host Lt_Soria says:
::wants to get to his feet, but decides it is not worth the effort and stays sitting on the deck::

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

MO_Sarel says:
EO: Thanks ... that would be great.

EO_Powers says:
::gives the hypospray, gets someone working on the MO and joins the CEO::

TO_Masterson says:
::sits her phaser on stun and enters the shuttlebay::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*TO Verall*: Any indication as to what caused the explosion, Lieutenant?

CEO_Yeung says:
::walks over to what seems to be the center of the explosion::

FCO_Romanov says:
::walks to a console, checking plasma injectors to both nacelles::

TO_Verall says:
::is wandering around the ruin that was sickbay:: *CTO*: Standby sir, just checking now.

MO_Sarel says:
::notices Lieutenant Soria's lazy eye is all but closed:: Lieutenant Soria: You know sir, when I get better, I can fix that eye of yours if you like.

TO_Masterson says:
::walks around to the escape pod doors::

EO_Powers says:
::moves next to the CEO:: CEO: This will take some overtime to fix.

CEO_Yeung says:
::notices Verall:: Verall: Lieutenant, are you sure you should be walking around?

Host Lt_Soria says:
ACTION: At the center of the explosion Yeung notes that he can look down into the room directly below sickbay ... somebody's quarters. Also, the explosion has left a significant depression for a full meter around the hole.

Host CSO_Storal says:
*FCO*: Status report, Mister Romanov.

TO_Masterson says:
*CTO*: Request permission to enter the pod,  sir.

CEO_Yeung says:
EO: No kidding...

CEO_Yeung says:
::looks down through the hole::

TO_Verall says:
::begins searching the debris with a tricorder for clues as to the source of the explosion::

EO_Powers says:
::looks down at the room below::

CTO_Cha`Dak says:
*TO*: Go ahead, Lieutenant, and good luck.

FCO_Romanov says:
::looks over the readings::

SO_Hammond says:
::pulls out his tricorder and scans the area::

Host CSO_Storal says:
::paces the bridge awaiting the damage and casualty report::

TO_Masterson says:
*CTO*: Aye sir.

TO_Masterson says:
::taps the control pad on the side of the door and opens it with her phaser ready to fire::

FCO_Romanov says:
::checks the nacelles themselves starting with the coils::

Host Lt_Soria says:
ACTION: As Masterson opens the hatch to the pod she finds Ensign Savannah Xavier sitting inside. She appears to have been badly beaten, and her face is bloodied. She looks scared more than anything else. Meanwhile, the Apache continues to limp back to port.
