<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< The Furies IV >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
:: In medical, staring at the drawing in her hand, briefly wondering if it was real or the lieutenants imagination... but she knew better.::
MO_Jeddi says:
:: Seeing to the survivors who had no medical training and were basically in the way at the moment, ::
Host SM_Sam says:
ACTION: The ship is rocked as a torpedo hits the shields
CEO_LtJG_OReiley says:
::In Main Engineering, personally supervising operations there as the ship goes into battle::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
:: on Bridge watching the battle::
CMO_Redwood says:
::almost falls out his chair in his office and steps out of it:: XO: What's going on?
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
Moore: Thanks Lieutenant... get some rest while you can.
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
:: Looks up at Oday::  CMO:  I would say we have engaged the furies.
CEO_LtJG_OReiley says:
::Checks the Master Systems Display for any damage and has repair teams and damage control parties respond accordingly::
Host SM_Sam says:
<Moore>::Nods and lays back::
CMO_Redwood says:
XO: Good start. Thankfully, we have things ready down here.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
TO: Keep targeting that ship and see if we can get the shields down.
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
:: pauses a moment:: CMO:  I should return to the bridge... I should be available later.
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
::arrives on the bridge::
CEO_LtJG_OReiley says:
::Monitors ship systems making sure the Tactical and propulsion systems have the priority on power and resources::
Host SM_Sam says:
ACTION: Arondight unleashes its own fire power on the attacker, its shields flicker.
CMO_Redwood says:
::nods to the XO:: XO: Take care of yourself, La'i.
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
:: Stares a moment and then smiles::  CMO:  You too, doc.
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
::relieves the TO and starts targeting weapons::
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
:: heading out the door, she makes her way to the nearest lift and orders it to the bridge.::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
:: sees the CTO:: CTO: Good to see you back now lets see if we can remove this threat from the galaxy.
CMO_Redwood says:
::turns from the XO and checks to see his staff are ready::
Host SM_Sam says:
ACTION: Another volley from the Arondight hits the attacker's shields, it flickers even more
MO_Jeddi says:
:: With only a few left behind, he heads to locate the CMO::
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
CO: Shields are still holding, sir, it's gonna take a while
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CTO: Once the shield drop start hitting them with the Tricobalt torpedoes.
Host SM_Sam says:
ACTION: The attacker does an about face and is heading towards the Arondight
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
:: The rumble of the ship as the crew works to protect her vibrate through her feet, adding a sense of urgency.::
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
:: As the lift stops, she steps off and heads over to science.::
CMO_Redwood says:
MO: Doctor Jeddi, what's the status of the guests?
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
CO: Aye, tricobalt torpedoes
CEO_LtJG_OReiley says:
::Makes sure the shields and structural integrity get reinforced as the enemy starts firing back::
Host SM_Sam says:
<FCO_Flight>: CO: Captain they are heading right for us.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
FCO: keep using those evasive action our best defense against that ship is our agility over it.
Host SM_Sam says:
<FCO_Flight>: CO: Aye, adjusting course.
MO_Jeddi says:
CMO:  Except for those few who have some medical training and those few who should have overnight observations, all are pretty much settled.  :: wryly::  though going from one battle where you have lost almost to another battle is not exactly settling.
CMO_Redwood says:
MO: Let's hope we win this one then to raise their morale. ::smiles::

Host SM_Sam says:
ACTION: As the attacker flanks the Arondight, multiple torpedoes are launched, three of them hit the Arondight across the dorsal shields, they are weakened.
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
CO: Dorsal shields weakened no disrespect meant, but a more able pilot might do the trick, sir
CEO_LtJG_OReiley says:
::Sends repair teams to work on the dorsal shields and reinforces them with all the extra power they can take to compensate::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CTO: Make sure that the fighter keep up their hit and run attacks till the shields are down.
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
:: Scanning the picture in, she pulls up the files they have::  All:  I know there is little time, but I thought you might like to know what who we are being attacked by.  :: puts the picture up on the corner of the main screen.::  They are ruthless conquerors.  The dolls you see them wearing holds their memories.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CTO: you want to take over flight as well?
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
::orders the fighters to keep hitting::
Host SM_Sam says:
ACTION: One fighter pilot loses control and rams into the Attacker causing the shields to collapse in the rear of the ship.
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
CO: Anybody can push a button to fire weapons, flying is a hard skill during combat, sir and I am the best pilot on this ship, sir
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
:: Checks sensors:: CO: Aft shields on enemy ship have fallen, ordering fighters to fire at the aft section
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CTO: Then get on the helm and do your best to keep us out of their fire.
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
::Heads for flight and start evasive maneuvers and trying o move the ship behind the furies ship::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CTO: have then target their tricobalt torpedoes in that area.
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
CO: Captain, taking survivors... ::hates saying the words and decides it is not necessary so stops.::
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
CO: working on it, I'm maneuvering us behind the furies so we can have some shots at them, sir
MO_Jeddi says:
CMO: Ummm... doc?  You wanted anything specific of me at the moment?
CEO_LtJG_OReiley says:
::Makes sure inertial dampers are at maximum as they start heavy maneuvers::
Host SM_Sam says:
ACTION: The torpedoes hit the mark as the fighters swing around and begin the attack run.
CMO_Redwood says:
MO: Be prepared for casualties. Until then, I suppose you could continue your proposal?
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
*CEO*: How are things holding up down there?
MO_Jeddi says:
CMO: And odd thing to do at the moment, but hey... works for me.  :: with a nod turns and heads for the small back lab so that he is near at hand when needed.::

CEO_LtJG_OReiley says:
*CO*: So far so good Sir. I keep compensating as best I can. The dorsal shields took a pounding, but I have teams working on them and I reinforced them as best I could. We're holding on for now.
Host SM_Sam says:
ACTION: The Furies ship fires multiple volleys at the Arondight.
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
::tries to avoid the furies fire::
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
CO: Captain, suggest we try to contact them.  If nothing else, I would like to know why they want to eliminate our species.
CMO_Redwood says:
MO: Well, you asked. ::turns back to his office::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
*CEO* : Can you replicate more tricobalt torpedoes as well?
CEO_LtJG_OReiley says:
*CO*: Aye Sir, I can. It will take some time however. Should I get a team working on that?
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
XO: You can try. However from what I have seen so far they really don't want to talk.
Host SM_Sam says:
ACTION: The Arondight is hit by 2 of the torpedoes.  One hit on the dorsal shields, another one in the aft shields. Both shields weaken.
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
::mutters under his breath that wiping out the federation is not an easy task::
CEO_LtJG_OReiley says:
::Keeps reinforcing the shields that weaken and sends repair teams to start work as soon as the problems develop::
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
:: nods and steps over to operations.  It might not work, but one never knew without trying.::  OPS:  Open a channel to that ship.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
<NoDuz> XO: Aye Ma'am channel opened.
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
::Checks sensors:: CO: Aft and dorsal shields weakened, sir
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CTO: Try and keep them protected till we can reinforce them.
MO_Jeddi says:
:: making him self comfortable, he activates the screen and begins working on the proposal.  Research being his element, he is right at home.  What he would like to know, was how had he gone from being top researcher of the team to the CMO's right hand person.  He could not quite remember how that happened... it just suddenly... was.::
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
CO: Aye, radical maneuvers then ,sir :;smiles::
CEO_LtJG_OReiley says:
::Has a team start replicating both tricobalt and photon torpedoes with orders to transport them directly into the launcher magazines as soon as they are ready to keep Tactical as supplied as possible::
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
:: Standing, looking down at the screen before her so that they would see no further part of the ship::  COMM: Furies: This is the USS Arondight.  We seek to end hostilities and discover your purpose here.  Please respond.
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
::slaves tactical to flight and enters a firing sequences for the next few minutes.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CTO: And you haven't been up till now?

Host SM_Sam says:
ACTION: No response from the ship
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
CO: Hold on to you hair piece this will get rough, using an Akira class like it is a Sabre class is a bit dangerous, sir
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
:: Looks at NoDuz, not at all surprised::  OPS:  Keep the message repeating.  If nothing else, maybe it will annoy them.  :: smiles a bit grimly.::
CEO_LtJG_OReiley says:
::Makes sure Shields, weapons, and inertial dampers have priority for power as the battle rages on::
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
::targets the bridge air with a full spread:: XO: I think that just annoyed them a bit, sir
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CTO: I thought that was what we were suppose to do was be dangerous. :: smiles::
Host SM_Sam says:
ACTION: The inertial dampeners over compensate as the crazy guy at the helm does radical maneuvers.
MO_Jeddi says:
:: letting the thought go as unimportant, gets involved with his work.  And like all good researchers, has soon blocked everything else from his thoughts as he focuses on the one item before him.::
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
*CEO*: I need more power to inertial dampers or else we'll be spinning for a while
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
<NoDuz> XO: Aye Ma'am :: sets up the hail on a continuous loop::
CEO_LtJG_OReiley says:
*CTO*: I maxed them out already.
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
:: holding tightly to the back of NoDuz chair, is certain she has left the imprint of her fingers on it.::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
*CEO*: Push them to 125% they will hold.
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
*CEO*: You can max them out more by I think 15%, Engineers tend to be more conservative on paper, lieutenant
CEO_LtJG_OReiley says:
*CO*: Aye Sir. ::Pushes the power on the inertial dampers to 125%::
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
:: looks from the CTO to the captain, thinking men and their toys.  The pair of them seemed to be rather enjoying the battle... adrenaline rush.::
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
CO: You've been to that seminar as well, sir?
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CTO: I started out in Starfleet as an Engineer.
MO_Jeddi says:
:: barely acknowledges the antics of the ship around him.::
CMO_Redwood says:
::gets up as wounded come in::
CMO_Redwood says:
MO: Let's go!
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
CO: Ah, I've been CEO for a brief period in my career, sir
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
:: shakes her head::  OPS:  Send a priority message to Starfleet, informing them of our current situation and that they are over due in answering our last.
MO_Jeddi says:
:: blinks as a voice penetrates his thoughts and frowns in annoyance.::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CTO: I was CEO on Arcadia for a good spell.
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
CO: Arcadia, what class was she, sir?
MO_Jeddi says:
:: As with all things, he just shakes the annoyance off and saving his work, stands to head back out into the main room.::
CEO_LtJG_OReiley says:
*CTO*: Inertial dampers are at 125%, best I can do. I'd hate to burn them out in the middle of all your rolling around. We'd all get smashed into the bulkheads like pancakes.
CMO_Redwood says:
MO: Yes, how dare they get injured... get over here! ::a little annoyed at the MOs impatience and gets to work on the first patient::
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
::Decides to circle the furies ship::
Host SM_Sam says:
ACTION: Torpedoes hit the Furies ship and does little damage to the thick outer hull
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
<NoDuz> XO: Aye Ma'am I will send the message but their last response said that they were sending ship it is just whether or not they will get here before we either destroy the ship or they destroy us.
MO_Jeddi says:
:: Lifts a brow at the CMO's tone of annoyance and simply shrugs, heading for the nearest person::
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
*CEO*: Before that happens You can lob on two runabouts to the hull they can act as inertial dampers for a few hours
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
OPS: Thanks.  They had not responded when I was last on the bridge.
CEO_LtJG_OReiley says:
::Rolls her eyes at the ridiculous suggestion and goes back to managing systems::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CTO: If we have any Quantum torpedoes you might want to use them also.
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
:;checks sensors a smile appears on his face:: CO: I got federation signals incoming, they'll be here in an hour or more, sir.
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
CO: Captain, our ship does have its limits.  I would suggest we let them give us a bit of a merry chase and catch up with our own people before we are damaged and must stand and fight.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CTO: Lets hope that we are still here in a hour or so.
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
::checks torpedoes inventory:: CO: At the moments I'm firing what ever I can get my hands on, sir.
MO_Jeddi says:
:: lightly chatting with ensign, begins to work on the engineers broken wrist.::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
XO: Sound like a good ideal. Recall the fighters now.
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
CO: I agree with the XO, I say we give her a full spread and collect the fighters back in and dash for the support, sir
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
OPS: Send out the recall.

CMO_Redwood says:
::works on a patient with plasma burns to his arm::
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
CO: Seeing that we are running low I could fire the officer's mess chef at them, sir
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CTO: That is about what I have planned set a course for those federation signals and prepare to engage.
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
::Sets course for the federation ships:: CO: Coordinates sets ready when you are, sir.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
<NoDuz> ::Sends the recall order to the fighters.::
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
:: Heads over to one of the empty consoles and begins to pull up damage reports.::
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
::fires a full spread of aft torpedoes at the furies ship::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
NoDuz: Send a message to those federation ship that we are headed towards them with possibility the enemy following.
CEO_LtJG_OReiley says:
::Continues to have her teams repairing shields and other systems and replicating torpedoes::
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
*CEO*: Do we have any mines?
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CTO: Once the fighters are aboard engage at warp 9
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
CO: Aye, warp 9 on your mark, sir
Host SM_Sam says:
ACTION: The Torpedoes hit the mark, as the fighters are retrieved.
CEO_LtJG_OReiley says:
*CTO*: You should know, that's your department.
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
*CEO*: Well, I don't know what you used for those tricobalt torpedoes
MO_Jeddi says:
:: putting down the cytoplasmic stimulator he reaches for a wrap::  EO:  You will need to give your wrist time to fully heal.  Do not over do it.  For now though you can use it for light work.  I will put that in your record for the CEO.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CTO: If you have any left deploy then and go to warp Now
CEO_LtJG_OReiley says:
*CTO*: I've been using bulk stock for the replicators.
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
CO: Aye, firing a full spread and hitting warp........... now! ::fires his last spread and hits warp::
Host SM_Sam says:
ACTION: The Arondight warps out.
MO_Jeddi says:
:: finished wrapping the wrist, he sends the man on and motions for another patient to join him at his table.::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CTO: Lets see if those Furies can keep up.
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
CO: I hope not, sir!
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
:: watches the Furies ship briefly vanish from the screen as they go to warp.::
CEO_LtJG_OReiley says:
::Has her people continue repairs and send the latest batch of torpedoes directly into the launcher magazines::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CTO: ETA on when we meet up with the other ships?
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
CO: ETA will be 30 minutes I suggest we move behind them to cover the rear we are in bad shape, sir.
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
CO: Damage report.  Damage to the dorsal shield, 30% left.  Aft shields at 70%.  :: sighs::  We lost three fighters.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
CTO: Roger make it so.
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
*CMO/CTO*: I need a damage report from you.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
XO: Roger keep me informed and keep an eye out for those Furies.
CEO_LtJG_OReiley says:
*XO*: I'm replacing torpedoes as fast as I can, but I'll need about an hour to get the shields fully repaired. Fortunately that's the most serious of the damage.
Host SM_Sam says:
ACTION: Subspace comm. from the Federation Ships
CMO_Redwood says:
*XO*: Several wounded, nothing major.
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
XO: Weapons okay,  inertial dampers a bit cooked, we lost a few fighters
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
:: Nods and looks over at science, listening to his report.::  CO:  The furies have not moved from where we left them.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
<NoDuz> CO: Captain we are being hailed by the Federation ships.
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
XO: And we lost 50% of our torpedo stock
MO_Jeddi says:
:: One of his team mates sits down.  Taking the moment to catch up, gently helps her off with her shirt to better attend the gash on her shoulder.::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
NoDuz: On Screen.
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
CO: Medical reports minor injuries only.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
<NoDuz>:: places the com on screen::
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
*CEO/CMO*: Acknowledged.  We are currently heading in the direction of our ships, though the furies are not following.  ETA to them is 30 minutes.
Host SM_Sam says:
<Captain Wilco>: COM: Arondight: Arondight, this is the Montenagro.  What is your status?
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
OPS: Contact a few of our friends to beam over spare torpedoes or raw material
CEO_LtJG_OReiley says:
*XO*: I'll prioritize the shields and do the best I can before we re-engage.
MO_Jeddi says:
:: The wound cleaned, picks up the autosuture and begins to close the gash.::
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
*CEO*: Acknowledged.
CMO_Redwood says:
::moves to the next patient, another minor wound::

Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
COM: Wilco: We are currently in route to intercept you. We have engaged the Furies and have suffered damage to our shields and expended a good amount of our torpedoes. Also have some injuries and at least 2 deaths.
MO_Jeddi says:
:: finished, gives her a shot of Corophizine and turns away as she puts her shirt back on and then turns back.::  SO:  We'll get together later.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
<NoDuz> CTO: The captain is talking to them right now but will relay the message as soon as he is done.
CTO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
NoDuz: Thanks ::stands up and moves to the tactical station::
Host SM_Sam says:
<Captain Wilco>: COM: Arondight: Roger that.  We will see you soon, Wilco out.
MO_Jeddi says:
:: Looks up as one of the survivors for the outpost takes the vacant spot::  EO:  Were you not here earlier.  :: listens as the man tells him what happened as he begins to treat him.::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
:: nods to NoDuz to close the com::
CEO_LtJG_OReiley says:
::Puts all her available personnel on repairing shields and doing maintenance on the inertial dampers, keeping one team making the torpedoes::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
XO: Any sign of the Furies?
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
CO: The Furies are still not following.  We have a sensor lock on them for now.  Perhaps they see us as having run in fear of them and as cowards, are not deserving of response.  Of course, this is all guess.
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
XO: Lets hope that your guess is right so we can have some time to recuperate.
MO_Jeddi says:
:: teases the man about staying out of engineering as he finishes with the minor burn.::
Host CO_Capt_McDuggle says:
All: Good work everyone.
XO_LtCmd_Mea`e says:
CO: I won't argue that one.
