Host Rich says:
Prologue: The Apache has been order back to Avalon Station for new orders. As they have a 15-day trip ahead of them it will give them time to check out all the systems or at least they hope they will.
Host Rich says:

XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
::on the bridge looking at the star streaking by on the main viewer:: *ALL*: Department chiefs, how is maintenance going?
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
::At Tactical, monitoring the LRS, SRS, and Internal Security monitors::
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
::sitting in the big chair, slowly sipping her hot tea::
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
XO: Tactical has all of our routine stuff done Boss, we had no repairs to make from the last mission. All systems nominal.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CTO: Gina let me guess, I don't need to remind you about the supply requisition list.
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
*XO*: Just running final diagnostic on the injectors and the dilithuim matrix now sir, shouldn’t be too much longer
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
XO: Had all my requests in by the time we broke orbit Sir. ::smirks::
Host Rich says:
Action: The Apache picks up a distress signal.
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
::returns attention to main engineering console::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
*CEO*: Sounds great. Keep me posted Chief.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
XO: I'm picking up a distress call Sir.
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
*XO*: Aye sir
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CTO: Can you put it on screen?
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
XO: Klingon type, seems to be an automated beacon Sir.
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
::sets her tea down and looks at the viewscreen::
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
::Puts up a star map with signal origin and audio of the signal::

XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CTO: Can you identify who it sending the signal?
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
XO: Interesting.
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
::makes slight adjustment to streams, to optimize performance::
Host Rich says:
Action: The COM comes to life with the words, ship in distress please send assistance.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CO: Would you like to investigate ma'am?
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
XO: Well, it's on the way. We need to at least see what's going on.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
XO: Klingons are our allies by treaty Sir, we have an obligation to assist.
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
::smiles to self:: Self: that’s it baby, purring like a kitten now
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CTO: We have an obligation to assist even if they were enemies, but if we could know the nature of the problem we'd assist them better.
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
*XO*: Sir the core and engines are purring like a kitten now
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
*CEO*: Can you give us more power chief?
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
XO: Signal source is a Bird of Prey... B'Rel class, no power or life signs I can detect at this range Sir.
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
*XO*: Aye sir ill crank her up for you
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CO: Max speed ma'am?
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
XO: ETA 5 minutes at current speed... course 347 mark 10.
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
::checks ME console again and adjusts the power settings::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CTO: Yellow alert.
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
XO: We'll keep at this speed, I'd like to get some more readings before we go charging in.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
XO: Aye Sir. ::Brings ship to Condition Yellow::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CO: Aye ma'am. Good point.
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
*XO*: She’s running at 90% sir lemme know if you need more
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
*CEO*: Herr Wall would you join us on the bridge, we many need your technical expertise to know what happened to the Klingons.
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
*XO*: On my way sir ::nods to duty engineer to take over::
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
::heads for TL::
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
TL: Bridge
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
XO: Registry lists the ship as the IKV Glory of Quonos Sir.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CTO: Gina, scan the area around the ship and the ship itself, see if you can find us some info.
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
::exits TL onto bridge, heads for Engineering station::
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
XO: Aye Sir. ::Gets to work with intense LRS and SRS Tactical scans::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CEO: Welcome here Ensign. Can you call from the LCARS the specs of the IKV Glory of Quonos and check with what appears on our sensors?
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
XO: Ay sir
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
XO: I wonder what's going on.
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
::begins checking the specks on the Glory of Quonos::
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
ALL: ETA 3 minutes at current speed, minimal power to life support and a few stations, but no life signs .. not even any bio signs of bodies.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CO: I hope we will know soon ma'am.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
::nods to the CTO:: FCO: Full stop when we arrive at the limits of our transporter range.
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
XO: Must be an automated signal if there's no life signs. ::ponders::
FCO_LtJg_Odain says:
XO: Aye Sir.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
XO: Recommend any boarding party wear EV suits in case of some sort of contamination Sir. I'm volunteering to go, I'm a qualified medic, and I'm fluent in Klingon.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CO: I  wonder if they were attacked. ::turns toward the CTO and the CEO: CTO/CEO:  Any sign of battle?
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
::Checking sensors constantly::
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
::checks scans of the ship::
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
XO: Some sort of localized disruption nearby, but it's dissipating... the vessel appears undamaged Sir.
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
XO: All specs match and no sign of battle damage sir
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CTO: Any ionic trail from other vessels?
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
XO: Checking Sir.
FCO_LtJg_Odain says:
XO: We are within transporter range now Sir, Going to full Stop.
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
XO: All lifeboats are in place sir,
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
XO: No trials or subspace eddies I can see Sir.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
::nods to the CTO:: CO: Permission to go on the other ship with an away team ma'am.
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
XO: Granted. Keep in touch and beam out at the first sign of trouble....or snakes.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
CO: Captain, recommend we keep our distance from both the ship and that disturbance... there seems to be no other cause of this.

XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CO: Ouch snakes, I must remember to wear tall boots ::grins::
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
CTO: Understood.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CTO/CEO: You are with me, we'll put on EVA suits and meet on transporter room one.
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
::nods to XO::
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
::Motions for the Duty Tactical Officer to take over her station::
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
::Nods to Duty Engineer to take his spot::
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
XO: Aye Sir. ::follows the XO::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
::nods to the CO and leaves headed to the armory::
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
::follows the XO::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CTO/CEO: Do you have any theory about what we may encounter?
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
XO: Knowing the Klingons sir anything is possible
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
FCO: After the away team beams over, let's keep a safe distance.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
XO: I'm not sure Boss, but I'd say whatever caused this had to do with that disturbance, so keep an eye open for unusual readings of phenomenon.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CEO/CTO: We will beam on the bridge and try to access their computer, maybe they left some hints in their logs.
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
XO: Aye sir
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
XO: Roger that.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CTO: Let's see if I remember how to hack into a computer ::grins and enters into the armory::
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
::follows XO and CTO::
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
XO: Well, this is Klingon, so I'll help if you need it Sir. ::Draws tricorder, med kit, and a phaser rifle, as well as emergency and survival gear pack::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
CEO/CTO: I hate these helmets, always made me feel like if I was in a coffin.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
XO: Better than being in one Boss. ::grins and starts putting on her suit::
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
::nods to the XO as he checks the helmet::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
::controls the energy source of his suite then loads a tricorder into the utility belt:: CTO: I hear you. ::smiles and seals the helmet::
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
::seals helmet::
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
::Finishes sealing herself into the suit, then puts on the pouches of gear and picks up her weapons, making sure she can reach her field knife and type-2 phaser easily, then picks up the type-3 rifle::

CEO_Ens_Wall says:
::checks suits sensors and readouts::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
All: if your suit is sealed let's go.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
::Nods:: XO: After you Sir.
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
::takes rifle and picks up engineering kit ::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
*CO*: We are about to beam on the other ship's bridge Captain.
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
*XO*: Alright. Good luck and Godspeed.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
::enters the transporter room and steps on the pad:: *CO*: Thank you ma'am.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
::Assumes ready position::
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
::braces himself:: Self: I hate transporters
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
Transporter Chief: Beam us to the Klingon ship's bridge chief.
Host Rich says:
Action: The Away Team is transported on to the bridge of the Klingon ship.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
@::Immediately scans the area with the light on her rifle, looking for threats::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
@:: looks around and calmly pulls off his tricorder and scans the bridge::
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
@::opens tricorder and begins scanning the bridge::
FCO_LtJg_Odain says:
CO: Since we are at full stop shall I man the OPS station for a bit??
Host Rich says:
Action: The AT finds the Klingon completely empty  no bodies and no other life on the ship.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
@::Moves over to the Tactical station and powers down any active defenses and safes all weapons::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
@CEO: How's the status of this ship's engines?
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
@XO: Tactical station secured Sir.
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
@::continues scans and moves closer to the engineering console::
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
@::checks the engineering station::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
@CTO: Good let's see if I can access the captain's logs. ::moves to the Captain's chair in the center of the bridge::
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
@XO: Life support reads as safe Sir, just the usual Klingon smells and such... and a bit stale.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
@CTO: How about any weird viruses?
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
@XO: Boss the engines have been completely drained of power
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
@XO: None the medical tricorder can detect Sir.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
@CEO: Chief, how would you explain that? ::sits on the Captain's chair and activates the computer from there::
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
@XO: I’m running a diagnostic now,
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
@::tries to get access to the computer using a hacking program from his tricorder::
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
@::Starts trying to download the sensor logs from the Tactical and Science into her tricorder::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
@*CO*: So far we got nothing-new ma'am. It's like if someone towed this ship here and left it for us.
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
*XO*: Odd.
Host Rich says:
Action: The Captain's log comes up on the viewscreen stating the following. This is Captain Groto. There seems to be some kind of energy beam coming from space. It has begun to draw power from the ship starting with the engines and moving forward. We have lost contact with the crew on the other side of the beam.
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
@::continues examining the CEO`s logs::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
*CO*: I am transmitting you the Klingon ship Captain's log.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
@::Continues downloading the Tactical and Science sensor records of the beam and it's attack::
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
@::Sends copies back to the Apache once downloads are finished::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
@CTO/CEO: They seem to have been attacked, but they are not saying who the aggressor is.
Host Rich says:
Action: The message continues: It seems that wherever the beam come in contact with the ship crewmember are disappearing.  Then the message just goes blank.
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
*XO* : Thank you. ::waits for transmission::
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
@XO: Curious
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
@XO: Best guess Sir, whatever that disturbance was... or what came out of it.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
@CTO: Did the ship's sensors record the energy beam? CEO: Found anything Ensign?
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
<Duty_Tac> ::records and stores the data from the CTO::
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
@XO: Whatever it was it drained every system of power
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
@XO: Confirmed by their Tactical records Sir, that beam came from the disturbance.
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
@XO: Seems to have sucked the ship dry
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
@CTO: Can you deduce the nature of the beam? CEO: What do you think could do that?
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
@XO: Nothing that I know off
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
@*CO*: Captain, recommend you get the Science folks studying the Tactical data I sent back on the beam weapon and let them and my folks try to start forming a defensive plan against the beam.
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
*CTO*: I'll get them on it, good idea.

CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
@XO: Some sort of energy weapon Sir, but with what I have here, I can't tell you exactly how it worked yet.
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
@XO: We should check main engineering out
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
::passes on the info to the appropriate science 'people'::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
@CEO: Agreed, maybe if we scan the engines we will know more.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
@XO: The Klingons had no luck figuring it out, it just drained the energy and apparently disintegrated living tissue on contact.
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
@XO: I’m interested to see what state their dylithium crystals are in
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
@CTO: Did they raise shields?
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
@XO: They tried Boss, but the beam just drained them as fast as they put them up.
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
@::checks on the ships log to understand the nature of the Klingons' mission::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
@CTO/CEO: I guess now we have to understand who attacked our bumpy heads friends and why?
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
@::nods silently to XO in deep thought::
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
@XO: Yes sir, but I'd be more concerned with where are they now, and are they unfriendly to Federation ships too.
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
@XO: It appears there fuel state is zero
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
@CTO: I will consider them unfriendly unless they prove me of the contrary....
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
@XO: Always a wise precaution Sir.
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
@XO: the tanks are drained
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
@::continues in deep thought::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
@CEO: Let's try to take some samples from the dylithiumn crystals, maybe analyzing them we may be able to know what that beam was.
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
@::Continues to look over the weapon data and science data of the attack to figure out how the enemy did it::
Host CO_Rr`Vellan says:
::looks over the data the away team sent over, trying to figure out who has the knowledge/desire to do this::
FCO_LtJg_Odain says:
::Continues to maintain full stop and keep an eye on sensors::
XO_Lt_Cmdr_Polo says:
@CTO: If you are done here I would like to go to Main engineering?
CEO_Ens_Wall says:
@Self: none of this makes sense
CTO_Lt_Hembrook says:
<Duty_Tac>::Continues to monitor LRS and SRS and maintain Tactical systems at Condition Yellow::
