Captain's Log 10708.26
Host Rich says:
The Arondight is currently on its way to the Horatio's location after receiving a distress call from the Horatio. It seems that Section 31 is not done trying to kidnap Admirals as they have now attacked Admiral Winter's convoy. Details are sketchy at the moment and I am hoping that the Horatio can give more info when we arrive.

Host CO_Cmdr_McDuggle says:
:: on Bridge watching viewscreen as they approach the Horatio's location::
CMO_LtJG_Bannister says:
::Is in cargo bay two looking over a manifest of everything they've done to set up a temporary triage if necessary. ::
CEO_Ens_OReiley says:
::In Main Engineering, directing the shutdown of all non-essential systems as the ship gets ready for combat, and bringing all the secondary generators online to help provide as much power to the vessel as possible. Double-checks the Structural Integrity Field, Inertial Dampeners, and the Warp Field::
Host CO_Cmdr_McDuggle says:
OPS: Anything from the Horatio yet?
CEO_Ens_OReiley says:
<Duty_Tac> ::Checking all the Phasers, Torpedo Launchers, and Tractor Beams, and looking over the Shield Grid and Tactical Sensor Network::
Host CO_Cmdr_McDuggle says:
<OPS_NoDuz>: CO: Nothing sir.
CMO_LtJG_Bannister says:
::Walks over to one of the makeshift beds and makes certain that all the equipment is set up and ready to go.::
CEO_Ens_OReiley says:
<Duty_Tac> CO: Sir, I'm picking up escape pods ahead... pretty spread out, looks like they could be from several vessels by the pattern of them.

Host CO_Cmdr_McDuggle says:
Duty Tac: Any signs of the Horatio?
CEO_Ens_OReiley says:
<Duty_Tac> CO: Negative, Sir. I have a tally of about 400 escape pods, but no sign of other vessels. Lots of debris though.
Host CO_Cmdr_McDuggle says:
NoDuz: Start transporting the escape pods aboard and warn the CMO of their arrival.
Host CO_Cmdr_McDuggle says:
<NoDuz> CO: Roger Sir.  *CMO*:Doctor we are transporting escape pods aboard where do you want us to transport them to?
CEO_Ens_OReiley says:
<Duty_Tac> ::Starts doing LRS Tactical sweeps for any other vessels in the area, and intense SRS sweeps for any useful cargo or supplies they might salvage from the wreckage::
CMO_LtJG_Bannister says:
*NoDuz*:  We've set up an area in Cargo Bay Two for the casualties.
CEO_Ens_OReiley says:
::Continues to monitor all systems at the "Pool table" in Main Engineering, ready to deploy her damage control teams and reroute systems if needed, and has teams standing by in the Transporter rooms to assist any vessels in the convoy, as ordered::
Apache_Co_Polo says:
@::orders his CTO to open a channel to the Arondight:: COM: Arondight: Arondight, this the Apache, please respond
Host CO_Cmdr_McDuggle says:
<NoDuz> *CMO*: Roger just to for warn you there are around 400 escape pods so this will take a little while.
Host CO_Cmdr_McDuggle says:
<NoDuz> CO: Sir the Apache is hailing us.
CMO_LtJG_Bannister says:
*NoDuz*:  Acknowledged.  We'll start moving them about when we get them.  ::Instructs his people to be ready for the incoming casualties.::
Host CO_Cmdr_McDuggle says:
<NoDuz>:: starts transporting in the personal from the pods::
Host CO_Cmdr_McDuggle says:
COM: Polo: Captain it is good to see you again. What do we owe the pleasure?
CEO_Ens_OReiley says:
<Duty_Tac> ::Transfers the coordinates for any intact cargo containers to the OPS panel so they can be beamed aboard after the crews are rescued from the escape pods::
Apache_Co_Polo says:
@COM: McDuggle: I guess this is my daily report ::grins:: We are almost finished with repairs and we are headed into the Nuclars Nebula. How are things going on your side of the mission?
Host CO_Cmdr_McDuggle says:
<NoDuz> :: nods his thanks to the Duty Tac::
CMO_LtJG_Bannister says:
::Starts to round up the people to the beds and begins working on the most critical injuries.::
Host CO_Cmdr_McDuggle says:
COM: Not as well it seems. Admiral Winter's convoy was attacked and we are only finding escape pods in the area no signs of the Horatio or any other ships.
CEO_Ens_OReiley says:
<Duty_Tac> CO: Sir, there is a lot of debris out there, but I think I've picked up a warp trail, bearing 020 mark 30, it looks like it's headed to a planet in the nearby system. Transferring data to your console and the Conn.. ::Send data to CO's chair and FCO::
Apache_Co_Polo says:
@COM: CO: It seems they have way more ships than we expected. I was surprised when they used birds of prey against us.
Host CO_Cmdr_McDuggle says:
Duty Tac: Roger as soon as everyone is transported aboard we will head that way.

CEO_Ens_OReiley says:
<Duty_Tac> CO: Aye Sir, maintaining alert status and sensor sweeps. Should we launch the fighters to do an advanced recon for us?
Host CO_Cmdr_McDuggle says:
COM: Polo: While that is good information to have it is not exactly what I wanted to hear.
Apache_Co_Polo says:
@COM: CO: We plan to go in the nebula and to try to locate their base. But we both must consider asking for reinforcements if necessary.
CEO_Ens_OReiley says:
::Receives data burst from the Apache on their recent encounter and adds it to the Tactical database::
Host CO_Cmdr_McDuggle says:
COM: Polo: I will have NoDuz send what information that we have gathered since the last time we talked.
Apache_Co_Polo says:
@CO: CO: Perfect, and Captain I am sending you a PRISM encryption key, I suggest we use it to communicate with each other just in case our channels are monitored. That key should be safe.
Host CO_Cmdr_McDuggle says:
COM: Polo: Roger just be careful and hopefully we will get some more help but I wouldn't count on it and thanks we will use it from now on.
CMO_LtJG_Bannister says:
::Grabs a tricorder and walks up to one of the injured and scans them over.::  Aloud:  Get this person over to section three.  He's got burns on twenty percent of his body.  ::Moves on to the next patient.::
Apache_Co_Polo says:
@COM: CO: As soon as we find them we will send you their location. It may take a while as we have to be very careful. Good hunting. Polo out.
Host CO_Cmdr_McDuggle says:
<NoDuz> :: closes the channel::
CEO_Ens_OReiley says:
<Duty_Tac> CO: Sir, looks like it might take a while to recover all these personnel and all that cargo. Recommend we launch the fighters as a recon picket and security screen, have them move out to maximum SRS range.
Host CO_Cmdr_McDuggle says:
Duty Tac: Roger make it so.
CMO_LtJG_Bannister says:
:: Begins scanning the next patient.::  Aloud: Get this one prepped for surgery.  Massive internal bleeding.
CEO_Ens_OReiley says:
<Duty_Tac> ::Sends a message to the Flight Deck to scramble the fighters and send a squadron in all 4 directions to maximum SRS range for picket duty::
Host CO_Cmdr_McDuggle says:
<NoDuz> CO: Sir we have everyone from the escape pods on board now.
CEO_Ens_OReiley says:
::Monitoring COMM traffic, decides since there are no ships to help fix she sends the damage control teams to help the Medical department cope with all the casualties::
Host CO_Cmdr_McDuggle says:
*CMO*: Doc have you been able to find Captain Hung or Admiral Winters in the personal that have been beamed aboard?
CMO_LtJG_Bannister says:
::Is busy getting ready to get a patient through surgery.::  *CO*:  Not yet sir.  If I do see either of them I'll send word to you.
Host CO_Cmdr_McDuggle says:
* CMO*: Roger

Host CO_Cmdr_McDuggle says:
:: has the duty FCO head them out on the course sent to her by tactical::
CEO_Ens_OReiley says:
*CMO*: Doc, I'm sending you my damage control teams and off-duty personnel to help with the casualties. I sent them to the cargo bays, you can use them however you wish.
Host CO_Cmdr_McDuggle says:
Duty Tac: Keep a couple of squadrons out on patrol and recall the rest of the fighters.
CMO_LtJG_Bannister says:
::Puts on some gloves and then gets the scanners ready.::  *CEO*:  Acknowledged.  ::Turns to one of the nurses.::  Nurse:  Engineering is sending us some additional hands.  Make sure they are not in the way.
CEO_Ens_OReiley says:
<Duty_Tac> CO: Roger that Sir. I'll recall the flankers and rear guard and leave one squadron out on point. ::Sends the orders::
Host CO_Cmdr_McDuggle says:
<Duty FCO>: Sir we will be at the planet in 5 minutes.
CMO_LtJG_Bannister says:
::Looks over some of the scans and then grabs one of the surgical instruments and begins operating on a crewmember. ::
CEO_Ens_OReiley says:
::Does a quick diagnostic of all ships systems to be ready::
CEO_Ens_OReiley says:
<Duty_Tac> CO: Sir, we are losing the warp trail. I'm not sure if it's the planet or the system or what, but it just peters out when it gets to the area of the planet. Perhaps this is where they stopped. I'm scanning the planet and moons for signs of ships and bases now.
CEO_Ens_OReiley says:
::Does detailed SRS and Tactical scans of the planet, moons, and area around them::
Host CO_Cmdr_McDuggle says:
Duty FCO: Put us in orbit of the planet.
CMO_LtJG_Bannister says:
::Makes an incision and begins putting things back together. ::
CEO_Ens_OReiley says:
<Duty_Tac> ::Has fighters do recon of the area as well::
