USS Apache
Mission #202
"Lost & Found"
10401.16

Prologue: The USS Apache is now approaching the Federation side of the Neutral Zone where they are instructed to stay and run a routine patrol.

              <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Begin Mission>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

CSO_Marsland says:
::walking out of his quarters on the way to the bridge::

FCO_Ilianor says:
::yawns, as he remains at his console, making minor changes as the Apache nears the Neutral Zone::

CEO_Royale says:
:: finishing up some last minute repairs in Main Engineering ::

Host CO_Storal says:
::sitting in his ready room going over several reports::

XO_Naegle says:
::in her chair on the bridge::

CNS_Solaa says:
::in her chair on the bridge, looking over a report::

CSO_Marsland says:
::walks into the turbolift:: Computer: Deck 1, Main Bridge.

CEO_Royale says:
Self:  ::sighs loudly, walks over to her office, orders a steaming cup of soycaf, and sits momentarily ::

CNS_Solaa says:
XO: What can we expect from this patrol, sir?

Computer says:
::bleeps in acknowledgement::

TO_Dovoro says:
:: is currently walking toward the bridge, apparently now on-duty. :: Self: I swear I used to know the New Orleans schematics before..

FCO_Ilianor says:
XO: We're just about to arrive at the Neutral Zone, ma'am... for better or for worse.

XO_Naegle says:
CNS: Well, it's supposed to be routine.  But I have never seen a routine patrol in my time here.

XO_Naegle says:
::nods:: FCO: Thank you, Lieutenant.

CSO_Marsland says:
::arrives on the bridge and walks up to the XO:: XO: Lt.JG Marsland reporting for duty Sir.

Host EO_Lobe says:
::walks up to the CEO and knocks on her office door::

CEO_Royale says:
Self: :: gets one sip barely choked down, sighs, again ::  Enter

CNS_Solaa says:
::looks up and smiles at Tom::

XO_Naegle says:
::stands up and holds out her hand:: CSO: Welcome back, Lieutenant Marsland.  It's good to see you.

Host CO_Storal says:
::opens a channel back to SB366:: COM: RAdm: We are nearing our patrol route and we had a bout of computer glitches. We lost warp capability for a few moments. I have the engineering staff working on it. But I would like to keep this patrol from being prolonged more than normal.

CSO_Marsland says:
::shakes her hand:: XO: Thank you sir. Good to see you too. Permission to relieve the SO on duty?

CEO_Royale says:
::Yells angrily at the office door:: EO: Enter!

TO_Dovoro says:
:: finally makes it to the bridge, antenae wiggling some as they take note of the placement of their others, and then finally moves to the tactical station. He witholds a wince as he listens the string of problems the Apache's had recently::

XO_Naegle says:
::nods:: CSO: Granted, take your station.

FCO_Ilianor says:
::sits back and starts sanding down his nails a bit, after quickly inspecting them:: CNS: The Romulans are around... we didn't come here for no reason, obviously.

CSO_Marsland says:
XO: Aye sir. ::walks to the port side of the bridge and recieves a brief from the SO::

CNS_Solaa says:
::laughs:: FCO: The Romulans are ALWAYS around...

Host EO_Lobe says:
::enters the CEO's office:: CEO: Uh, sir. I just finished a complete diagnostic of the warp drive and the plasma conduits and everything seems to be in working order. The, umm article of clothing didn't leave any lasting damage and we have full warp capabilities.

RAdm Linard says:
COM: CO: That's good news, Captain. What was wrong with the warp drive? After two weeks on shoreleave our crews assured me everything was in perfect working order.

CEO_Royale says:
EO: Excellent.

FCO_Ilianor says:
::giggles:: CNS: Well, I certainly hope they're not ALWAYS around... ::laughs, and turns, and sees the new TO:: CNS: Say, isn't that the new guy?

Host EO_Lobe says:
::hands the CEO and complete report of the incident::

TO_Dovoro says:
:: remains silent for the time being as his hands lay on the tactical console, checking and re-checking the sensors. Besides, it's always good to be thorough, especially with this particular ship's track record. ::

CEO_Royale says:
EO: I want a level 4 diagnostic on the secondary and tertitary backup systems as well

CNS_Solaa says:
FCO: Yes, Ens. Dovoro, I believe. ::turns to look at the TO::

CSO_Marsland says:
::takes the seat at Science One::

FCO_Ilianor says:
CNS: Mmmm... ::smiles:: I oughtta say hi later.

XO_Naegle says:
TO: Ensign Dovoro, finding anything on sensors?

CSO_Marsland says:
::begins long-range scans of the Neutral Zone::

Host CO_Storal says:
COM: RAdm: I don't know exactly. I'm still waiting for the report. The glitch appeared to be minor. I should know the extent of the problem shortly.

TO_Dovoro says:
:: picks up the conversation between the CNS and CEO and looks up from his station as he hears the XO ::  XO: No, sir. Not that I can see. Tactical's clear.

Action: As the Apache makes her way along the neutral, she makes her first sensor sweep of the area. Everything appears to be normal so far, there are a few trace elements of stray gasses that could easily be attributed to stray comets or old warp signatures.

Host EO_Lobe says:
::nods:: CEO: Aye, Sir. Anything else?

XO_Naegle says:
TO: Thank you, Ensign.

CEO_Royale says:
EO: Don't tempt me.. ::smirks::
XO_Naegle says:
*CEO*: Ensign Royale, how are things at Engineering?

CNS_Solaa says:
::looks at the viewscreen with apprehension:: Self: Hmmm...

CSO_Marsland says:
XO: Sir, picking up some stray elements floating through the area. Hard to tell the cause at this point. Could be a decaying warp signature, or it could just be some stray particles of space dust.

CEO_Royale says:
* XO *: Warp drive restored Sir.  We are keeping it under surveilance as a precautionary measure.

RAdm Linard says:
COM: CO: Okay, let me know what it is. Maybe one of my engineers came across something during the inspection.

XO_Naegle says:
CSO: Noted, Lieutenant. Keep track of it. We might need to know about it.

TO_Dovoro says:
:: bows his head to acknowledge the XO's thanks :: XO: Your welcome, sir. :: he takes a moment as he looks to the tactical console again, his hands quick while he narrows the Tactical sensors toward the stray elements the CSO picks up. ::

XO_Naegle says:
*CEO*: Thank you Ensign. Keep an eye on it.

FCO_Ilianor says:
XO: Plotting a patrol route along the neutral zone now... how far a distance should we keep from the neutral zone?

CSO_Marsland says:
XO: Aye sir, I'll be keeping a close eye on this.

CEO_Royale says:
:: swallows down two scalding chugs of soycaf and then checks on EO Lobe::

Host CO_Storal says:
COM: RAdm: Will do. I will send it along with our first sensor sweeps.

Host EO_Lobe says:
::cowers slightly:: CEO: Aye Sir.... ::heads off before she gives him something else to do::

TO_Dovoro says:
:: from the looks of it, the Andorian ensign is keeping a close eye on the results at the tactical station as well. After all, this being his first assignment, Sranev would hate to make a bad impression. ::

CEO_Royale says:
:: decides to monitor the sensor arrays to see how they are performing::

CSO_Marsland says:
::turns to the SO behind him:: SO_Raye: Please perform the routine diagnostics on all our gear. We need to make sure it's operating correctly.
SO_Raye says:
CSO: Aye sir. ::turns to the console and begins to work::

FCO_Ilianor says:
::makes sure to keep an eye on his navigational sensors... in case they run into any... ships:: CNS: So... how are the examinations coming along?

CEO_Royale says:
:: makes some minor adjustments, then walks over to look at the shield generators ::

XO_Naegle says:
FCO: Just keep us a few kilometers from "No man's Land" Lieutenant.  As long as we don't enter the zone, we'll be fine.

CNS_Solaa says:
::looks up from her reading:: FCO: Oh! Well, they are going great, actually... I'm enjoying myself, so thats a good sign! ::laughs::

CEO_Royale says:
* EO *: Status report, Mister Lobe?

CNS_Solaa says:
FCO: Just... patroling this border makes me uneasy...

FCO_Ilianor says:
XO: Aye, ma'am. ::takes the Apache a little closer, almost skimming the neutral zone borders, if it were tangible:: CNS: I know what you mean. I feel like we're just here, waiting for something to happen.

TO_Dovoro says:
:: his antenae pick up the conversation between the CNS and FCO and then promptly returns his attention back to the tactical console. ::

XO_Naegle says:
CNS: Don't worry, something will, happen, Counselor.

CTO_Grey-feather says:
:: steps onto the bridge from the turbolift and approaches the XO, comes to full attention:: XO: Ma'am excuse my being late for shift but I was investigating a discrepency in the inventory of the torpedoe magazines.

Host CO_Storal says:
::stands up from his desk and walks over to the small window and peers out:: Self: What are you hiding out there...?

CNS_Solaa says:
XO: That's what we're all afraid of...

SO_Raye says:
CSO: Sir, all diagnostics report operation at peak efficiency.

XO_Naegle says:
::raises and eyebrow:: CTO: Did you find the discrepency?

CEO_Royale says:
Computer: Location of Mr. Lobe.

CSO_Marsland says:
XO: Sir, I think I've got something. Looks like a variance in subspace in the heart of the neutral zone. ::forwards it to the TO:: TO: Take a look at this please.

Host EO_Lobe says:
*EO*: Everything is going okay Sir. It all checks out according to my diagnostic

FCO_Ilianor says:
::glances upwards as he senses another voice for a second, and notices the TO; he bows his head deeply for him::

XO_Naegle says:
CSO: Let me know when you can identify it.

CTO_Grey-feather says:
XO : The physical inventory and the computer didn't match.  I found the missing torpepdoes...someone didn't check the loaders.  They were ready to be loaded so they weren't in the storage mags.  All weapons are accounted for now  :: still standing at attention::

Host CO_Storal says:
::jogs quickly in place to clear his mind then straightens his jacket and enters the bridge:: XO: Status report Janet?

CSO_Marsland says:
XO: Aye Sir, working on it.

TO_Dovoro says:
:: looks up at the arrival of the CTO, smiling once to the Terran Native before nods once to him :: CTO: Primary Tactical is all yours sir. :: looks toward the secondary tactical station :: CTO: Do you wish me at Secondary Tactical?

XO_Naegle says:
CTO: Very good, Ensign.  Now man your station.

CSO_Marsland says:
SO_Raye: Focus the lateral sensor array on that location. Let's see if we can narrow this down.

SO_Raye says:
CSO: Aye sir. ::focuses on the blip on sensors::

Host CO_Storal says:
::walks over to his chair and sits down::

CSO_Marsland says:
::turns to his console and tries to focus on the blip::

CTO_Grey-feather says:
XO: Aye ma'am  :: walks to primary tactical :: TO: Yes, I've got this one take over secondary.  Anything I should know about?

XO_Naegle says:
CO: Lieutenant Marsland and Ensign Dovoro have reported for duty. Lieutenant Marsland is now checking with Ensign Dovoro to verify a variance in subspace in the heart of the neutral zone.

CNS_Solaa says:
::is fed up with sitting and so gets up and moves to the free OPS console::

CEO_Royale says:
* EO *: Thank you. Would you like a refreshment?

CSO_Marsland says:
::looks over at the TO:: TO: Got anything on the variance yet?

FCO_Ilianor says:
CNS: Heh, just can't get away, can you... ::spins back around to face his console, paying close attention as this variance is investigated::

CSO_Marsland says:
*Astrometrics*: I'm forwarding this LRS scan down to you. See if you can get a fix on what this may be. Marsland out. ::forwards the data to the Astrometrics lab::

XO_Naegle says:
CNS: Can't stay away from OPS, Counselor?

TO_Dovoro says:
:: shifts to secondary tactical, having transfered the results to the station as the CTO arrived:: CSO: Unfortunately, no, sir.

Host CO_Storal says:
XO: Good, has Ens. Royale submitted her report on the cause of the warp disruption?

CNS_Solaa says:
XO: Well, I hate feeling useless. I might as well stick around at OPS for a while. ::smiles::

CSO_Marsland says:
TO: Aye, keep at it. Have the CTO take a look as well.

Host EO_Lobe says:
CEO: No thanks... I'm going to lunch in a little while...

XO_Naegle says:
CO: Not yet.   They seem to be awfully busy down there.

TO_Dovoro says:
:: nods once to the CSO:: CSO: Yes, sir. I was planning on it. :: he glances back to the CTO and nods to him again :: CTO: Sir, the results we've received so far should be on your console now, sir.

CEO_Royale says:
EO: oh really ?!

XO_Naegle says:
*CEO*: Ensign Royale.  We need your report on what caused the warp disruption.

FCO_Ilianor says:
XO: Should I get closer to this... variance? Er... staying on our side, of course.
CSO_Marsland says:
XO: Sir, still can't get a hard fix on what it is, but it's still there. At this range I don't believe I can find anything else out.

CTO_Grey-feather says:
:: studies the display quickly :: TO : Thankyou...graviton emissions  :: thinks for a second :: has there been movement or is this disruption stationary?

XO_Naegle says:
CO: What do you think? Should we investigate the variance in the heart of the neutral zone?

Host CO_Storal says:
::nods in agreement to the XO:: FCO: Take as close as we can get without crossing into Romulan space.

CEO_Royale says:
* XO *: Sir the introduction of a foreign object into the matter-anti matter inversion chamber caused the systematic failure of 2 essential systmes: the duodynetic warp sensor and the annular containment field arrays.  Those systems have been restored.

CNS_Solaa says:
CO: Boost power to sensors and scans, sir?

CSO_Marsland says:
::thinks to self.. what could cause a variance in subspace besides a warp signature, a cloak, or an anomaly::

Host CO_Storal says:
CNS: Make it happen Ensign.

XO_Naegle says:
*CEO*: What kind of a foreign object?

FCO_Ilianor says:
CO: Aye, sir. Changing heading... perhaps we can get a closer look at this. Self: Guess subspace variances don't pop up every day...

TO_Dovoro says:
TO: Sir, it's been stationary.

CNS_Solaa says:
CO: Aye, sir. Scans and sensors at maximum.

CNS_Solaa says:
CSO: See if you can find it now, Tom.

TO_Dovoro says:
CTO: Sir, it's been stationary so far.

CSO_Marsland says:
CNS: Aye Counselor, thank you.

CSO_Marsland says:
::tries again to focus on the anomaly with the LRS::
CTO_Grey-feather says:
XO: Commander we could launch a probe, that shouldn't tick off the Romulans too much

Action: As the Apache reaches the edge of the Romulan Neutral Zone, Long range sensors pick up a transfer of energy to the graviton emmisions, which now appear to be looking like a Quantum Fissure.

SO_Raye says:
::turns to the CSO:: CSO: Still not able to get a good fix.

XO_Naegle says:
::nods:: CTO: Try it.

CEO_Royale says:
* XO *: apparently another crew member could not remeber wear to put away their undergarements and decided that my engine room was a good place to do so !  I'm having them analyzed to identify their owner as the security tape has conveniently been erased by the cuplrit.

CSO_Marsland says:
CO: Sir, picking up more data now. Definitely graviton emissions. Looks like a tear in subspace, a quantum fissure.

CNS_Solaa says:
::tries to stiffle laughter:: XO: UNDERWEAR, sir?

CTO_Grey-feather says:
XO: Aye.  ::launches a probe at the disruption ::  TO: Keep your eyes on that probe.

XO_Naegle says:
*CEO*: You mean to tell me that all of our problems were caused by someone's underwear?

XO_Naegle says:
All on Bridge: Simmer down!

XO_Naegle says:
CO: I'd really like to get my hands on the idiot who left his underwear in engineering.

Host CO_Storal says:
::his ears perk up, so he stands and walks over to Science:: CSO: Is it a natural tear or artificial?

CNS_Solaa says:
Co: May I suggest we go to some kind of alert, sir? I can't help but feeling they are waiting for us...

TO_Dovoro says:
:: nods to the CTO:: CTO: Yes sir.

CEO_Royale says:
* XO *: Essentially that is the root cause sir.

Host CO_Storal says:
CNS: Negative Ensign, there is no need.

Host CO_Storal says:
XO: Is that what caused it?

XO_Naegle says:
*CEO*: Thank you, Ensign.

CSO_Marsland says:
::watches the probe's telemetry:: CO: Sir, from the looks of it, and the lack of data in the library, I believe it is newly formed, and it looks to be artifical though hard to tell at this distance.

XO_Naegle says:
CO: Yes, that's what caused it, sir.

FCO_Ilianor says:
CSO: How far away is it? I wonder if it's close enough to affect us...

CSO_Marsland says:
::brings the fresh data up on his console:: CO: Take a look for yourself Sir.

CEO_Royale says:
*XO*: Royale out.

CTO_Grey-feather says:
:: looks over at the TO :: TO: Somebody knocked us out of warp with his underwear?  Next it will be a Romulan in a surplus bathtub with a slingshot that takes us out at this rate :: grins ::

Host CO_Storal says:
::looks at the data:: CSO: Cross reference the results with that of a Quantum Fissure Torpedo. It should be in the data base.

Action: As the probe is launched the CSO immediately detects another subspace surge off the port bow of the Apache.

CSO_Marsland says:
CO: Sir, another surge in subspace, recommend evasive maneuvers!

TO_Dovoro says:
:: keeps an eye on the probe and the following results it brings. :: CTO: Your guess is good as mine, sir. Though, from what I-- :: the statement from the Andorian ensign is interrupted. CTO: I don't like the feel of this, sir.

CO_Storal says:
FCO: All stop.

CEO_Royale says:
:: examines general alert message board, and is upset ::  * EO *: Who the hell turned off these generals ?!

Host CO_Storal says:
XO: I'm hoping it's not a QFT. If the Romulans are working on it. Things will get extremely interesting.

FCO_Ilianor says:
CO: Aye, sir. ::disengages impulse engines:: Reading all stop. But might we be in danger here? Maybe I should take us some distance away, captain...

Action: As the Apache comes to an all stop, sensors light up as a Romulan warbird decloaks off the port bow bearing down on the Apache.

CNS_Solaa says:
Self: This was no routine patrol...

CSO_Marsland says:
::tries to analyze the surge:: CO: Sir, it appears to be exactly the same data we were getting on the fissure before we got closer. I am worried that this could be another fissure getting ready to form.

FCO_Ilianor says:
Self: Spoke too soon.

CNS_Solaa says:
::eyes widen in fear::

XO_Naegle says:
CO: Captain, QFT is a three letter word.

FCO_Ilianor says:
::turns around to glance at the CNS::

Host CO_Storal says:
FCO: Take us three thousand kilometers from our present position.

CTO_Grey-feather says:
:: sees the Warbird:: XO: Shall I raise shields commander?

Action: Before the Apache gets a chance to raise sheilds, the Warbird fires directly at the aft section of the Apache causing several explosions in main engineering.

CNS_Solaa says:
CO: Romulan War bird off the port bow!

XO_Naegle says:
CTO: Yes, Raise shields, Red alert!

Host CO_Storal says:
::Holds on to a rail to keep from falling over::

CNS_Solaa says:
::holds onto her console for support as the explosions rock the ship::

TO_Dovoro says:
:: mutters under his breath as he awaits orders from the CTO, watching as the Romulan warbird decloaks ::

XO_Naegle says:
::hangs on to her chair::

CEO_Royale says:
:: sprints over to the shield generators before the fire suppression system kicks in::

FCO_Ilianor says:
CO: Yikes, plotting evasives, we're so close to the warbird...

CTO_Grey-feather says:
:: tries to raise shields and signals red alert ::

CNS_Solaa says:
CO: Damage to ME! I don't know how extensive.

CEO_Royale says:
* EO *: Get your carcass in here !!

Host CO_Storal says:
CNS: Hail the Warbird!

CSO_Marsland says:
::hangs on to his console:: SO_Raye: This is getting ugly. Get down to the labs and see what you can find out there.

CNS_Solaa says:
CO: Hailing open!

Host CO_Storal says:
::walks down to the center of the bridge::

SO_Raye says:
CSO: Aye sir. ::gets up and leaves::

Host CO_Storal says:
COM: Warbird: This is Captain Storal of the USS Apache, why have you fired on us?

Computer says:
ALL: Warning. Severe damage to warp core has occured. Radiation levels exceeding tolerable levels. Warp Core Breech in progress.

Action: The warbird doesn't answer. It goes back under cloak and disappears.

CEO_Royale says:
Self: Where is that spaz?

CTO_Grey-feather says:
TO: Get down to engineering and see if you can help clear the area before the core breach

CSO_Marsland says:
CO: Sir, they're cloaking again. Reccommend opening fire on their position.

Host CO_Storal says:
CSO: Negative.

CNS_Solaa says:
CO: Recommend evasive manuevers and all power to sheilds!

CEO_Royale says:
* CTO * : Shields are a moot point now. ::heavy static:: We've got a warp core breach!

FCO_Ilianor says:
CNS: Trust me, we're evading...

TO_Dovoro says:
:: frowns faintly as he watches the ship cloak again. He shakes his head once at the CSO's recommendation, but doesn't speak. As he hears the CTO's words, the ensign nods :: CTO: Yes, sir. Will do. :: And with that, the ensign sprints out of the bridge and makes his way to engineering. ::

Host CO_Storal says:
CNS: Boost powers to the shields and weapons and stand by!

CNS_Solaa says:
::swears as she hears about the breach::

CNS_Solaa says:
CO: Yes, sir!

Host CO_Storal says:
*CEO*: Can you lock it down?

CSO_Marsland says:
::wonders what Romulans are doing violating treaty by entering the Neutral Zone alone::

FCO_Ilianor says:
CO: Aye, sir... Captain... I can still detect the Romulans... they're still around, but they're heading out... I think they're heading back to the fissure?... but I'm sorry, systems are all non-responsive.

CTO_Grey-feather says:
*CEO* : Got my TO headed your way.  Put him to helping evacuate engineering or whatever you need.

Computer says:
ALL: Warning, Warp core breech in progress. Time to breech... 5 minutes.

CEO_Royale says:
* CTO *: Negative- the radiation levels have caused engineering to be sealed off.  You'll flood the deck !!

FCO_Ilianor says:
~~~::tries to open his mind to the Romulans, oblivious to the fact that the warp core is going to breach... but nothing.::~~~

CNS_Solaa says:
::gasps:: XO: Should we eject the core?

XO_Naegle says:
CNS: Negative, not at the moment.

TO_Dovoro says:
:: finds himself in engineering, wincing some as he hears the sound of the klaxon within, not going into engineering just yet, :: *CTO* Sir, engineering is sealed off.

CSO_Marsland says:
CO: Sir, recommend notifying all non-essential personnel to evacuate Decks 14-16.

Computer says:
ALL: Warp core breech in 4 minutes.

CTO_Grey-feather says:
*TO*: Belay that order.. engineering is sealed off from radiation.

CEO_Royale says:
Computer- increase dylithium-photonic injection rate 300% and apply 180 degree phase shift.

Computer says:
ALL: Warning, warp core breech in 3 minutes.

TO_Dovoro says:
:: grunts as he hears the CTO before maintaining his ground, trying to calm himself rather than run off like a headless chicken. :: *CTO*: Sir, where do you wish me to go? And what of the probe? Was there any information we got from it that could be useful at all?

Host CO_Storal says:
*CEO*: Storal to Ens. Royale! Can you stop the breach?!?

CNS_Solaa says:
TO: I don't think we care about the probe at this moment.

FCO_Ilianor says:
CO: I'm afraid the Romulans have left my range, sir. But I'm fairly confident they're heading back to the disturbance....

CEO_Royale says:
:: repairing visible cracks ::

CEO_Royale says:
* CO *: Negative but I bought us an extension..

Host CO_Storal says:
CNS: Prepare to evacuate the ship on my mark.

CTO_Grey-feather says:
*TO*: Make sure the escape pods are functional and prepare for escaped procedures on the captains orders only.

Host CO_Storal says:
*CEO*: How long?

CNS_Solaa says:
CO: Aye, sir.

Host CO_Storal says:
FCO: Launch the emergency bouy.

Computer says:
ALL: Warp core breech in 2 minutes.

TO_Dovoro says:
:: listens to the CTO before nodding :: *CTO*: Yes sir. I'll do that. :: And with that, takes off toward the escape pods, making sure they are functional, racing the clock, as it were ::

CSO_Marsland says:
*Science*: Prepare to evacuate. Grab whatever data you can on the damned warbird, and stand by for the CO's order.

CNS_Solaa says:
CO: Sir, we MUST evacuate. We can all get out in time.

CEO_Royale says:
*CO*: She's progressed too far  Sir. Sorry....

FCO_Ilianor says:
CO: Aye, sir. ::accesses the controls for the buoy, and promptly launches it, propelling it some distance away:: Buoy launched, sir.....

Host CO_Storal says:
*ALL*: Storal to all officers.. evacuate ship. Everyone to the ecape pods!

CSO_Marsland says:
CO: Sir, reccommend locking out the main computer, just in case.

CEO_Royale says:
Computer- disengage engineering lockdown  authorization Royale-Baker-71

Host CO_Storal says:
CSO: Do it.

CSO_Marsland says:
::his hands fly over the console, locking out the main computer except for senior officers only::

CEO_Royale says:
: finds EO Lobe and hoists him over her shoulder ::

Action: All officers on all decks begin evacuating and launching into escape pods

CSO_Marsland says:
CO: Done, Sir. We need to leave, now.

XO_Naegle says:
CO: So much for a routine patrol.

Host CO_Storal says:
XO: Indeed...

Host CO_Storal says:
All: Everyone out! Now!

CEO_Royale says:
*CTO *: Beam us out of Main Engineering! Now !!

FCO_Ilianor says:
::gets up, and looks around as people start filing towards the escape pods...::

CNS_Solaa says:
::fights back tears::

CSO_Marsland says:
::broadcasts an emergency report on all subspace channels about the condition of the Apache::

XO_Naegle says:
::walks out and heads for the escape pods::

FCO_Ilianor says:
CNS: Courage, Ryn. It'll be okay.

CTO_Grey-feather says:
:: tries to get a lock on the CEO and beam him out of engineering ::

CNS_Solaa says:
ALL: Let's go! ::finds courage and runs to the pods to help the crew::

CSO_Marsland says:
::takes off behind Rynia::

TO_Dovoro says:
:: listens to the orders before fighting against the clock, securing the functionality of each escape pod. :: Self: Sure, get an assignment ot the Apache. Die on your first day.

CEO_Royale says:
:: fireman's carrying Lobe's dead weight ::

FCO_Ilianor says:
::runs to the back, and sees the TO still working:: TO: Good afternoon, ensign. Baran Ilianor at your service. We really should go.

CSO_Marsland says:
::reaches an escape pod and enters, waiting for more people before ejecting::

CEO_Royale says:
:: enters the escape pod and straps Lobe in then herself::  Self: Apache- I barely new ye...Adieu

CTO_Grey-feather says:
:: heads for the escape pods :: Himself: It would have been a grand jouney
CNS_Solaa says:
::waits outside the pod, shoving people in::

CNS_Solaa says:
::hops inside, as it becomes full::

CSO_Marsland says:
::Grabs the CNS:: CNS: No time to be a hero, we need to go.

TO_Dovoro says:
:: watches as the stream of people coming toward the escape pods, trying his best to keep the peace and the stall any chaos::

FCO_Ilianor says:
::hops in behind the CNS::

CTO_Grey-feather says:
