XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
CTO: How long till its up to par Cmdr?
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
CO: May I have the honor of the helm for this one?

CEO_Ens_Rydyll says:
*CO* We have 80% engines.  As long as it's a jog or quick walk, we should make it around the block, Captain.
CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:

XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
CO: Aye Ma'am.
CTO_Cmdr_Hebert says:

CO_Capt_Rushing says:
CMO:  Yes, it does feel good.  I just hope she stays together.
CEO_Ens_Rydyll says:
*XO* Commander Horn, how long do I have to get those estimates to you?
OPS_LtJG_Barnes says:
::alarm goes off:: CO: Sir.... I'm reading a distress signal....
CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
CO: we've come equipped with lots of bailing wire and spit, sir.
CEO_Ens_Rydyll says:
::continues watching the screen::
CTO_Cmdr_Hebert says:
:: stares right at Ensign Rydyll ::
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
*CEO*: Jordana no rush.
CSO_LTjg_Hawkes says:
Self:  Yeah, we're in distress.
CNS_Ensign_Ebrun says:
::Gets serious at the news :: 
CO_Capt_Rushing says:
OPS: What is it?
Host Jules says:
@Unknown vessel :  Please...............any.....we don.......need help............ples........
CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
::looks concerned::
OPS_LtJG_Barnes says:
::patches the audio message over the comm:: CO: Tracing....::tries to locate it::
CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
CO: there are several other ships docked at Avalon that can check into the distress call?
CSO_LTjg_Hawkes says:
::checks sensors, continues to be unimpressed::
CO_Capt_Rushing says:
OPS:  Relay the message to the station.
CEO_Ens_Rydyll says:
*XO* Then would you kindly get the CTO off my back so I actually have a chance to check damage before giving him an estimate on the shields?
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
*CEO*: Excuse me?
OPS_LtJG_Barnes says:
CO: Aye sir. ::sends info to Avalon::
CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
CO: I get the impression that this ship isn't ship shape for much of anything.
CTO_Cmdr_Hebert says:
:: his jaw drops :: *XO* Commander Horn, I'll take care of this.
OPS_LtJG_Barnes says:
CO: I'm getting a location on it.... it's near the Neutral Zone, sir. It's close to the border, but clearly in Federation space. ::looks back to CO::
CTO_Cmdr_Hebert says:
CEO: Ensign... :: walks to the side of engineering ::  Come here.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
*CTO*: Cmdr, what are you doing in engineering?
CO_Capt_Rushing says:
CMO:  Not yet.
CEO_Ens_Rydyll says:
*XO* Sir, I have been on the ship for less than 10 minutes and the Commander is here insisting on estimates.  I don't even know the damage to that area yet, let alone have the ability to give him an estimate.
Host Jules says:
@Unknown vessel : This...........he USS Am..........please.............
OPS_LtJG_Barnes says:
::tries to clear up the signal to determine what ship it is::
CSO_LTjg_Hawkes says:
::folds arms across chest and leans back in chair, staring at the console displays::
CEO_Ens_Rydyll says:
CTO: With all due respect Sir.  This is engineering not tactical.  Get out of my bay.  I'll forward the forms to your console on the bridge so you can write me up but I have work to do. ::walks away and begins checking damage reports::
CNS_Ensign_Ebrun says:
::Turns to the CMO::  CMO/CO:  Can they get to them faster than us?
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
*CTO*: Please report to me on the bridge.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
CSO: Can you get a location?
CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
CNS: I think a Pakled ship would be faster then this one, we're barely holding together, from what I've seen.
CO_Capt_Rushing says:
CNS:  Probably.  They are capable of a higher warp, undoubtedly.
CSO_LTjg_Hawkes says:
XO:  looks to be just on this side of the Romulan border.  You want a bearing?
CTO_Cmdr_Hebert says:
CEO: Write you up... that's exactly what I'll do.  :: turns and walks out of engineering heading for the turbo lift ::
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
CSO: Affirmative!
CNS_Ensign_Ebrun says:
CMO/CO:  True, but were already enroute, and they will have to leave the docking ring.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
CO: Shall I plot a course?
CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
::wonders if the CO will send another ship from Avalon to check on the distressed ship or if we are::
CSO_LTjg_Hawkes says:
::gets up, moves to the main viewer, and points::  XO:  Try heading in that direction, sir.
CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
CNS: that's up to the CO. It's all in her hands now.
CO_Capt_Rushing says:
XO: Yes, but still have the other ship meet us there.
CEO_Ens_Rydyll says:
Self: Good, at least it will keep you out of my hair for a while.
CTO_Cmdr_Hebert says:
:: steps off the turbo lift with a little redness in his cheeks attempting to take control of his anger ::
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
CSO: Is that the best you can do? Over Yonder?
CSO_LTjg_Hawkes says:
XO:  I'm sorry sir, but long-range sensors are barely able to get a general direction.
OPS_LtJG_Barnes says:
CO/XO: Getting a reply from Avalon, sirs.... we're the only ship on duty at the moment...
CEO_Ens_Rydyll says:
::moves to the next console and continues gathering her data::
CNS_Ensign_Ebrun says:
::Nods to the CMO::
CSO_LTjg_Hawkes says:
XO:  If you can get me closer I might be able to get a better heading for you.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
::Plots the course and engages::
OPS_LtJG_Barnes says:
::feels very uncertain about attempting ANY rescue in this bucket of bolts::
CO_Capt_Rushing says:
OPS/XO:  We'll just have to see what we can do.
CEO_Ens_Rydyll says:
::swears in Zaldan as her console goes dead, hits it, them moves to another one::
CTO_Cmdr_Hebert says:
XO :: stands right at the XO :: Yes, Commander?  You ordered me from engineering?
CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
CO: Sickbay is ready, as much as she can be.
CSO_LTjg_Hawkes says:
::moves back to science station, and attempts to task short-range sensors::
CNS_Ensign_Ebrun says:
::Sighs::  CMO: Well, I guess that answers that.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
CTO: Take your station, we have a distress call.
CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
::nods to the CNS::
CO_Capt_Rushing says:
CMO:  Good, we just might be having use of it shortly.
CTO_Cmdr_Hebert says:
:: looks directly at the XO with a gleam of emotion and then walks to his console ::
CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
CO: Let's hope for the best, but we're ready never the less.
CEO_Ens_Rydyll says:
::finishes her estimate and grumbles::
CEO_Ens_Rydyll says:
::moves to her office and sits down::
Host Jules says:
ACTION:  Just as the Phoenix approaches the area of the distress call, a small ship comes out of nowhere and fires on the Phoenix with a specialized EMP weapon.......
CEO_Ens_Rydyll says:
Self: Ack! ::falls head over heels as her chair breaks::
CSO_LTjg_Hawkes says:
::growls as a primary sensor element fails, switches to its redundant unit and continues to scan::
OPS_LtJG_Barnes says:
::grabs onto the console as the ship is rocked::
CEO_Ens_Rydyll says:
::gets back up on her knees and activates her console::
CMO_Cmdr_Slater says:
::holds on as the ship shakes::
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
CO: We are being fired on!!!!!!!
CTO_Cmdr_Hebert says:
:: sees the weapon coming in via tactical sensors and attempts to raise the shields to full power on instinct ::
CO_Capt_Rushing says:
CTO:  Any shields available?
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
CTO: RED ALERT!!!!!
CSO_LTjg_Hawkes says:
::throws up hands as all sensors’ wink out::
CNS_Ensign_Ebrun says:
:: Tries to grab onto something and falls::
Host Jules says:
ACTION:  All shields and weapons are offline.
CEO_Ens_Rydyll says:
::sends the papers to the CTO then comms him:: *CTO* You have the papers you were asking for Commander and your estimate is 3 weeks.
CEO_Ens_Rydyll says:
*XO* Sir, engines are 4 weeks at least.  More likely, 6 weeks for 100%.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
*CEO*: I need your skill Jordana!!
Host Jules says:
<D`urass> @COM: Phoenix:  I am sorry, but, you are now salvage property.   :: laughs maniacally ::
CEO_Ens_Rydyll says:
*XO* Thanks for the confidence but we're still talking a month or more.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
*CEO*: I need weapons and shields back online. We are being fired on!!!
OPS_LtJG_Barnes says:
CO/XO: Sirs.... ::patches message over comm, bad feeling in pit of stomach::
CEO_Ens_Rydyll says:
::looks up as everything goes dead::
CTO_Cmdr_Hebert says:
CO/XO: Negative response on shields and weapons...
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
CO: We can manually fire torpedoes!!
CEO_Ens_Rydyll says:
Self: This is NOT my day.
CNS_Ensign_Ebrun says:
XO:  At what?  We can’t turn the ship?
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
CNS: Sit down and think of something, or shut up!!!!
