Host Bafii says:
Prologue:_ The Arondight has just stopped outside of the orbit of Yeknom Prime where they have located stranger readings that seem to be slowly growing in strength.
Host Bafii says:
<<<<<<<<<< Resume Mission: Cause and Effect >>>>>>>>>>
CSO_Taliza says:
::studying the energy readings::
CMORangiTaiahiao says:
::continues to monitor the mother's  progress::
FCO_Chottu says:
::at flight.. flying the ship..::
Host XO_McDuggle says:
::steps off TL to bridge still mutter something about Starfleet and their meetings:: CSO: Taliza Report.
CNS_DiDomnia says:
::arrives back on the bridge, looking uncharacteristically upset:: XO:  When you get a minute, I need to speak to you... it's important.
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: Still not getting anything concrete on that energy field.
CTO_Williams says:
::Leans back after setting his controls on auto.  He looks at the scientific analysis on his side panels.::
Host XO_McDuggle says:
CNS: I will be with you just as soon as I can.
CNS_DiDomnia says:
::nods and sits down, still a bit unsettled as to the CEO's conduct::
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: Initial scans show that the field is a time-space disturbance above the planet, but just below orbital height.  It's like a subspace tear, a rupture in space-time.
Host XO_McDuggle says:
CTO: Lt are you able to pickup anything on your sensors?
Host Bafii says:
ACTION: The view screen shows the blue green image of Yeknom Prime..  its looks somewhat similar to Earth with its clouds and oceans.
CTO_Williams says:
::Looks down:: XO: No sir, I'm picking up the same things as the CSO.
Host XO_McDuggle says:
CSO: Would launching a probe help any?
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: It all depends on how stable the field is when we get the probe in there.
Host XO_McDuggle says:
CSO: How about just out side the field first?

CSO_Taliza says:
XO: Probably not at that location.  It'd be just about as same as using our ship's sensor array.
Host XO_McDuggle says:
CSO: Then lets try one just inside it.
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: Aye, sir.  Preparing probe for launch.  ::makes preps::
Host XO_McDuggle says:
CSO: Go ahead and launch when ready.
FCO_Chottu says:
::sighs and shows light signs of frustration::
CSO_Taliza says:
::finishes probe preps:: XO: Aye sir.  Launching probe.
Host XO_McDuggle says:
::turns to the CNS:: CNS: Counselor, What did you need to speak to me about?
FCO_Chottu says:
::shakes head::
CNS_DiDomnia says:
::looks around, then back at him:: XO: I'd appreciate it if we could speak in private sir.
CTO_Williams says:
::He looks down as his computer a red light blips.  He taps it out, and turns to the XO:: XO: Sir, our LRS now have a shorter effective range.  I think it’s from the disturbance.
CMORangiTaiahiao says:
::peaks in on the mom:: Mom:  How are we doing?  I saw the anesthesiologist  leave.
Host XO_McDuggle says:
CNS: Very well  then we can talk later.
CMORangiTaiahiao says:
<mom>  CMO:  I feel like I've had a few cocktails , I'm chilling, and I'm fine.....
Host Bafii says:
ACTION: The probe streaks towards the disturbance, recording terabytes of information every second and relaying it back to the ship.
CNS_DiDomnia says:
::hopes the CEO doesn't pull his phaser on anyone else before "later" occurs, but nods and does as she's told:: XO: Aye, sir.
CMORangiTaiahiao says:
MOM:  Uh huh...  :: winked at the dad , with a knowing look of 'keep an eye on her'::
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: Sir, probe is transmitting within normal parameters so far.
Host XO_McDuggle says:
CTO: Do you think we need to move away from it yet?
Host Bafii says:
ACTION: The probe penetrates the disturbance and disappears.
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: Sir!  I lost the probe upon entry!
Host Bafii says:
ACTION: The disturbance continues to slowly grow in size and power.
FCO_Chottu says:
XO: It's getting harder and harder to keep this ship in it's place..
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: The field is still growing, slowly.
CTO_Williams says:
XO: Our range isn't that greatly effected.  But we will gradually and gradually have less range as the disturbance grows greater.
Host XO_McDuggle says:
CSO: Did the probe give you any thing useful before it disappeared?
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: Checking logs...

CSO_Taliza says:
XO: As I feared, nada.
Host XO_McDuggle says:
CTO: Roger keep me advised.
Host XO_McDuggle says:
CSO: Can you determined if this is natural or if something is generating it?
CTO_Williams says:
::Nods.  Taps a few more buttons to keep monitoring LRS deterioration::
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: I can see.  ::checks data on the field::
CMORangiTaiahiao says:
::the Dad followed the CMO out:: < Dad> CMO:  She going to be ok?
CMORangiTaiahiao says:
Dad:  She will be fine.  She is progressing  well.   You should  be a dad with in a little while.
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: Sir, I just got a topographic scan from the planet.
Host XO_McDuggle says:
CSO: Anything interesting?
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: At the rate the field is growing, seismic activity will start within the next 12 hours, which will tear the planet apart!
CTO_Williams says:
CSO: What’s the growth rate on a field like this?  Does it show any signs of stopping?  Or could it eventually engulf the system, or more?
Host XO_McDuggle says:
CSO: Any ideal what is causing the field?
Host Bafii says:
ACTION: A shock wave rocks the Arondight slightly.
CSO_Taliza says:
CTO: The field is growing at a rate of 1km/hr.  ::rocks from the wave::
CSO_Taliza says:
All: Shockwave caused by the disturbance!
FCO_Chottu says:
::looks back at the XO, assuming he felt it::
CNS_DiDomnia says:
::takes a hold of the armrest next to her and braces herself to avoid falling::
Host Bafii says:
ACTION: In Sickbay, instruments fall to the floor and patients look around worriedly.
CMORangiTaiahiao says:
<Mom> CMO:  Hey Doc I think I felt one can you give me some more? ::shouts::
Host XO_McDuggle says:
::feels the rocking:: FCO: Back us off a short distance away from the field.
CMORangiTaiahiao says:
Dad: You better  head back to your momma.
CTO_Williams says:
::As the wave hits, Ryan leans back on his chair... all that momentum makes the back of it recline all the way to the floor::
CMORangiTaiahiao says:
:: helps pick up some of the instruments ::  Sickbay:   Shakes happen people Just pick up the pieces people and keep going.
FCO_Chottu says:
::nods at the XO and does as ordered::
Host XO_McDuggle says:
CSO: Any suggestion on how to stop it?
CTO_Williams says:
Self: Ow.  ::Pulls himself up, and pulls the back of his chair back up to position::

CSO_Taliza says:
XO: Sir, I can't totally tell how this started.  As far as sealing it up, it'll be dangerous.
Host XO_McDuggle says:
CSO: And what isn't.:: Chuckles::
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: Right.  Anyway, we'd have to create a static warp shell around the exact center of the disturbance.
CMORangiTaiahiao says:
::aside to one of her fellow docs::  Doc:  Keep an eye on things. Shakes anywhere could mean trouble.
Host XO_McDuggle says:
CSO: To do that we would need to be in it ourselves.
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: Exactly.
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: However, there is a twist.  The disturbance is small enough that we can simply send in a runabout.
Host Bafii says:
ACTION: There are more shockwaves that rock the ship, but not as violently as before.
Host XO_McDuggle says:
CSO: Could we operate it remotely?
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: Unfortunately, no.  Remember the probe?
Host XO_McDuggle says:
CSO: That was what I was afraid of.
Host XO_McDuggle says:
CSO: Go ahead and make the Camelot ready  and I will pilot it in.
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: Negative, sir.
Host XO_McDuggle says:
CSO: Say again.
CNS_DiDomnia says:
::raises her eyebrows at the exchange between the CSO and XO, and listens more carefully::
CMORangiTaiahiao says:
Sickbay:: Steady....
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: Sir, since the captain's off duty, you're in command.  You're too valuable right now to go on this mission.  I'll go.
CSO_Taliza says:
<Goode> ::hears the exchange from Sci 2 and chimes in:: CSO: Oh, no you don't, sir.  You're about to get married in a couple of months.  I'll go.
Host XO_McDuggle says:
CSO: Cmdr if the CO was disabled that might be true however he is just ties up with Starfleet at the moment .
CMORangiTaiahiao says:
::goes in and checks on the mom::
CMORangiTaiahiao says:
MOM:  You are at almost 8 centimeters.
FCO_Chottu says:
::scratches head and stays silent::
Host Bafii says:
ACTION: Suddenly, and without warning, the disturbance starts to grow at 4 times its previous speed..
Host XO_McDuggle says:
CSO: So if you will ready the runabout.
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: Are you sure about this?
CTO_Williams says:
::Panel beeps again:: XO: Sir, the disturbance speed has quadrupled in growth.
FCO_Chottu says:
::tries to compensate for the increased disturbance:: Self: Someone better do something..
Host XO_McDuggle says:
::see what just happened:: CSO: Maybe we had better check to see if the runabout will still do it?
CSO_Taliza says:
::checks readings::
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: It can, but we have a 30-minute window.
Host XO_McDuggle says:
CSO: Then we need to get the runabout ready in 5.
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: Before we do, I'm entering into my log that you're doing this against the objections of the second-highest ranking officer on the bridge.  ::prepares the Camelot::
Host XO_McDuggle says:
::gets up and heads for the TL:: CSO: Cmdr. So noted and you have the bridge.
CSO_Taliza says:
XO: Aye sir.
Host XO_McDuggle says:
::Enters the TL:: TL: shuttle bay 1.
Host XO_McDuggle says:
::feels the TL stop and gets out in shuttle bay 1 and heads for the Camelot::
Host Bafii says:
ACTION: The shockwaves increase... on the planet the first earthquakes start... 2 or 3s on the Richter scale.
CSO_Taliza says:
*XO*: Bridge to McDuggle.  You'd better hurry.  Seismic activity starting on the planet.  They're measuring in the 2-3 range on the Richter scale.
Host XO_McDuggle says:
::enters the Camelot and does the pre flight checks:: *CSO*: Cmdr I am ready please open the shuttle bay doors.
CSO_Taliza says:
::opens doors:: *XO*: You're cleared for launch.
CSO_Taliza says:
CTO: Keep a transporter lock on the commander.
CMORangiTaiahiao says:
:: check monitors on the mom::  ::to self::   She is progressing quily but not too fast.   He contractions are good.
Host XO_McDuggle says:
@::takes the runabout out and heads for the field::
CTO_Williams says:
::Taps buttons.:: CSO: Done.
Host Bafii says:
@ACTION: The ride gets progressively rougher for the small vessel.
CSO_Taliza says:
*XO*: We're going to keep monitoring you and we'll pull you out if it's too rough.
Host XO_McDuggle says:
@::keeps run fingers over the flight panel to keep the runabout headed for the middle of the field::
CMORangiTaiahiao says:
:: every 10-15 minutes goes in and checks on the baby's heart rate and scans, so far all go and healthy::
Host Bafii says:
ACTION: Suddenly the Arondight loses port thrusters and the ship goes into a spin as the others try to compensate unsuccessfully.
Host XO_McDuggle says:
@*CSO*: Cmdr the only reason you need to pull me out is if this ship starts breaking up and you don't think I will make it intact.
CNS_DiDomnia says:
::grabs onto the armrest and attempts to keep her balance::
CMORangiTaiahiao says:
:: With in the 2 hours she progressed to 10 centimeters,  and once the other docs have the chair prepped she will be ready to push::
CSO_Taliza says:
::feels the ship start to list:: FCO: Get us under control!
Host XO_McDuggle says:
@::reaches the edge of the field and starts in::
CMORangiTaiahiao says:
:: cursing in Maori , and grabs the nearest bio-bed::
Host Bafii says:
@ACTION: The runabout is getting tossed about, deflectors at full power are crackling with energy... but it manages to reach where it needs to be.
FCO_Chottu says:
::bites his lip:: CSO: Once someone gets me port thrusters back I will!
CSO_Taliza says:
*Engineering*: We need those port thrusters back!
Host XO_McDuggle says:
@::getting to the point he needs to be and activates the warp field::
CMORangiTaiahiao says:
Sickbay::  Be on alert for possible  injuries from the  shakes.
Host Bafii says:
@ACTION: Lights in the runabout cockpit dim as power is diverted to the warp field.
Host XO_McDuggle says:
@::crosses fingers and hopes this works::
Host Bafii says:
ACTION: The disturbance stops growing almost at once and even is shrinking slowly.
CSO_Taliza says:
CTO: What's happening over there?
CTO_Williams says:
CSO: Not much.  I guess it worked.
CSO_Taliza says:
*XO*: Arondight to Camelot, it's working.
Host XO_McDuggle says:
@::Checks the runabout sensors to see if he can read anything::
FCO_Chottu says:
::tries to get the Arondight stable again even without port thrusters::
Host Bafii says:
ACTION: The spinning stops and the Arondight once again hovers in space... however they have moved closer to the planet.  The shockwaves have stopped though.
CSO_Taliza says:
FCO: What's our status?
Host XO_McDuggle says:
@*CSO*: That is good to hear. ::checks to see if anything is broken::
FCO_Chottu says:
CSO: Stable, but Port thrusters are still out.
CMORangiTaiahiao says:
Aloud:: Now remind me why I left earth in the first place?
Host Bafii says:
