FCOKarlin says:
CO: Aye sir

CTOchalen says:
::whispers to Prin:: CSO: What do you think happened to the other ship, Kayta?

Capt_Sea says:
::sits back in his chair, monitoring the ship's readouts on his console::

XO_Skyler says:
::nervously waiting for a report::

Host ACTD_Don says:
ACTION: Ships sensors detect the warp trail becoming erratic, then disappears.

OPS_Grift says:

OPS_Grift says:
:: very pleased with himself ::

MO_Rose says:
:: pacing  and  changes  her tunes hoping to  keep her sprits up an   calm her nerves::

CSO_Prin says:
::shakes her head:: XO: I'm not detecting anything Sir

CTOchalen says:
::Whispers to Prin:: CSO: I hear stories of huge fields of tachyons that swallow up whole ships out here!

CSO_Prin says:
XO: They just vanished

CTOchalen says:
CSO: I hate tachyons.....

Capt_Sea says:
*All hands* rig for silent running switch to passive scanning

CSO_Prin says:
::Whispers to Chalen::  CTO Your just paranoid about tachyons

CTOchalen says:
::signals stations for silent running::

XO_Skyler says:
CSO: next question. are there signs of any temporal or spatial anomalies

CTOchalen says:
::Whispers:: CSO: we'll see......

FCOKarlin says:
:: Sets up Conn. for silent running :: CO: Aye

OPS_Grift says:
Aloud: you heard the Captain, move it now

CSO_Prin says:
XO:  Checking

CSO_Prin says:
::scans for anomalies::

Capt_Sea says:
CTAC: deploy passive sonar buoys

CTOchalen says:
CO: yes sir :: deploys buoys::

OPS_Grift says:
:: watches as the EO crews rush about ::

Capt_Sea says:
XO: opinion Number One?

CTOchalen says:
CO: I've got nothing from the poloron probes yet, sir.

CSO_Prin says:
XO:  Nothing on the scans yet sir

XO_Skyler says:
CO: shall we go in further?

Capt_Sea says:
All: we don’t have a trail to follow, I am open to suggestions

FCOKarlin says:
CO: and XO: Sirs Maybe we can trace for a possible heading they may have taken?

XO_Skyler says:
CO: She's out here somewhere........

XO_Skyler says:
CSO: thank you ensign. keep me posted

XO_Skyler says:
CO: have you ever heard of the S.S. Minnow?

CTOchalen says:
::thinks that's a strange name for a StarFleet vessel::

Capt_Sea says:
XO: Are you suggesting there was an ion storm?

OPS_Grift says:
*CO*: I suggest we try to find a particle flow pattern near the end of the ion trail... it might give us a clue as to what the heading was

XO_Skyler says:
CO: quite possible.

CSO_Prin says:
XO:  I'm starting to get something

XO_Skyler says:
CSO: talk to me

FCOKarlin says:
XO: You mean that 19th century TV program, the ship in it sir?

Capt_Sea says:
::listens::

XO_Skyler says:
FCO: yes, but it was in the earth 20th Century

CSO_Prin says:
::looking perplexed::  XO: It's on the same bearing as the warp trail

XO_Skyler says:
CSO: go on

Capt_Sea says:
*Doug* proceed with your theory

CSO_Prin says:
XO:  It has... rust from metal... and some type of micro organism

XO_Skyler says:
CSO: distance?

CSO_Prin says:
XO:  Unknown, but what ever it was, it is now dead

FCOKarlin says:
:: Readies to head out again::

OPS_Grift says:
*CO* If we can detect what direction  any particles are flowing in the area, it would give us a "wake" to follow

XO_Skyler says:
CSO: check the alloys of the metal and cross reference with Starfleet Ship Building schematics

Capt_Sea says:
*Doug* good idea, let me know what you find

CSO_Prin says:
::curious never seen this before::

CTOchalen says:
CSO: Kayta, I remember reading about a time the Enterprise D and a Klingon vessel developed this "Space rust" parasite.  Could this be similar?

Capt_Sea says:
*Colleen* how are you and the children?

Colleen says:
*CO*:  Sir we be doing just fine in this holopark.  Is there a problem?

CSO_Prin says:
XO:  Sir,  the trial is dispersing quickly,......they we are - the rust is common from material used on starships

OPS_Grift says:
::walks over to work station and pulls up sensor readings ::

Capt_Sea says:
*Colleen* no just wanted to be sure everything is alright ::smile in his voice::

XO_Skyler says:
CO: recommend we use a warp shuttle and investigate. if this is a space agent that can harm the Comanche, I do not recommend the undue risk of sending a ship in there

CTOchalen says:
CO: I must concur with the XO, sir.

CSO_Prin says:
::scans databanks for anything similar::

Colleen says:
*CO*:  You need not be worrying, we be just fine ::the laughter of the children are heard in the background::

Capt_Sea says:
::thinks it over::

XO_Skyler says:
FCO: bring Hydra up to Ready 5 status please

CTOchalen says:
CO: however, a shuttle would be more vulnerable to the effects.

OPS_Grift says:
:: cant detect any particle flows ::

Capt_Sea says:
Megan: can you give me a Medical opinion on the organics and the danger to the ship?

Dr_Sea says:
::scanning::

FCOKarlin says:
XO: Aye sir :: Leaves bridge for shuttle bay ::

FCOKarlin says:
:: Enters TL:: TL: SB 1

Capt_Sea says:
FCO: hold a moment, let me hear what Megan has to say

Dr_Sea says:
CO: The micro organisms are similar to those on the planet Basselan, but they are now dead

FCOKarlin says:
CO: Aye  TL: Hold on deck1

Dr_Sea says:
CO: relationship unknown

Capt_Sea says:
XO: since the organisms are dead, let us proceed to follow the trail

Dr_Sea says:
..at this time, sir

XO_Skyler says:
CO: aye sir.

OPS_Grift says:
*CO*: I have a suggestion

OPS_Grift says:
*CO*: we could charge the hull so that it repels the organisms

Capt_Sea says:
*Doug* go ahead

Capt_Sea says:
*Doug* please work with the CSO on that

OPS_Grift says:
*CO* aye sir

CSO_Prin says:
::looks over at the CO::

OPS_Grift says:
*CSO* Grift to Prin

Capt_Sea says:
XO: some form of space leech?

FCOKarlin says:
:: Moves back to Flight Control::

XO_Skyler says:
CMO: is it possible that they can.......regenerate?

CSO_Prin says:
*OPS* : Prin here Sir.

XO_Skyler says:
CO: or barnacle

Dr_Sea says:
XO: unknown at this time

Capt_Sea says:
CTAC: keep the shields up

CTOchalen says:
XO: sir, if this is like the organism that the Enterprise encountered, it can deteriorate the hull of starships completely within 48 hours.

Dr_Sea says:
XO: there is little in the medical database on this subject

CSO_Prin says:
CO:  Permission to leave the bridge

CTOchalen says:
::sets shields at maximum::

OPS_Grift says:
*CSO*: see if you can detect the molecular charge on those particles

XO_Skyler says:
CTO: noted

FCOKarlin says:
:: Checks Conn. for Readiness::

CSO_Prin says:
*OPS* Aye Sir

CTOchalen says:
XO: shields are holding at maximum power::

XO_Skyler says:
CMO: wish we knew more.

Capt_Sea says:
CSO: granted, please work with the 2nd officer on analysis the organism

Dr_Sea says:
::looks around at Richard:: XO: agreed

Capt_Sea says:
FCO: follow the trail at Warp 1

OPS_Grift says:
*CSO*: If we can single out the charge, we can charge the ships hull to repel the organisms

CSO_Prin says:
CO:  Aye Sir ::finishes the scan of the organism first::

XO_Skyler says:
CTO: thank you ensign.

CSO_Prin says:
*OPS*:  The organism is positively charged Sir

FCOKarlin says:
CO: Aye  :: Sets course to follow trail at warp 1:: Ready to engage sir

Capt_Sea says:
::stands and paces a bit with his hands behind his back:: FCO: engage

OPS_Grift says:
*CSO*: excellent work

FCOKarlin says:
CO: Aye :: Engages at warp1 ::

CSO_Prin says:
::gets up and heads for TL and enters::  Engineering

Capt_Sea says:
FCO: navigational deflectors up

CSO_Prin says:
*OPS* Thank you Sir, I'm on my way down to ME

XO_Skyler says:
::stands and walks around to the aft of the bridge::

Dr_Sea says:
::continues to monitor the situation at science2::

FCOKarlin says:
CO: Already done sir have not taking them offline :: Smiles::

CSO_Prin says:
::exists TL and heads for ME::

OPS_Grift says:
*CSO* received. Grift out

CSO_Prin says:
::enters ME and looks for Lt Grift::

Capt_Sea says:
XO: please continue to inform Starfleet Command of our progress

OPS_Grift says:
:: walks over to ME and begins to rotate the shields freq. ::

XO_Skyler says:
CO: they're on an open channel

Colleen says:
::placing the twins into the stroller, decides it was time to take them back for a nap::

CSO_Prin says:
::sees Lt Grift and walks over::

Host ACTD_Don says:
ACTION: The trail is becoming wider and more dense.

CSO_Prin says:
OPS: Sir

Capt_Sea says:
::runs his hands through his silver hand and feels the cool metal of his wedding ring::

OPS_Grift says:
:: turns and sees Prin ::

CTOchalen says:
CO: density increasing, sir.

Dr_Sea says:
::configures the controls to her liking::

CSO_Prin says:
::smiles a little nervous::

XO_Skyler says:
::glances at SCI-1::

Capt_Sea says:
FCO: secure from warp

FCOKarlin says:
:: Guides the Comanche through the debris field::

OPS_Grift says:
CSO: we need to charge the hull at the freq. of  the organisms in order to repel them

Dr_Sea says:
::turns and watches the viewscreen::

FCOKarlin says:
CO: Aye sir, Full impulse?

Capt_Sea says:
CTAC: launch a probe into the dense field

FCOKarlin says:
:: Drops out of warp::

CTOchalen says:
CO: Yes sir, launching probe.

CSO_Prin says:
OPS: Aye Sir

CTOchalen says:
::probe launches::

Dr_Sea says:
::turns quickly back to her station to monitor the probes readouts::

XO_Skyler says:
CO: recommend we take a shuttle in

CSO_Prin says:
OPS:  They are dead sir, no freq.

Capt_Sea says:
*Doug* we are entering a dense field, please be careful the engines do not get clogged

Dr_Sea says:
::taps a button or two, trying one or more diagnostics:: CO: no change in the readouts of the organisms

CTOchalen says:
CO: deflectors at maximum.

OPS_Grift says:
CSO: Can you speculate as to a possible frequency based on the makeup of the organisms?

Colleen says:
::as she enters the captains quarters she notes the ship is no longer at warp::

OPS_Grift says:
*CO*: permission to disengage the bussard collectors

FCOKarlin says:
:: Adjusts course to navigate the field::

CSO_Prin says:
::hesitates::

Capt_Sea says:
XO: the shuttle idea sounds dangerous

Capt_Sea says:
FCO: continue at 1/2 impulse

Host ACTD_Don says:
ACTION: Long range sensors pick up a mass beyond the cloud of dead matter and corrosion.

Dr_Sea says:
::extends her scan::

XO_Skyler says:
CO: aye, but it expedites our search and is safer than the whole ship

CSO_Prin says:
OPS:  I'll need to gather more information Sir

CTOchalen says:
CO: sensors show a mass of dead matter and corrosion ahead

FCOKarlin says:
CO: Aye :: sets impulse at 1/2::

Dr_Sea says:
CO: confirmed.

Capt_Sea says:
*Doug* why do you want to open the buzzard collectors?

CSO_Prin says:
::turns towards the station::

Colleen says:
Twins: Hmmm.....  well bairns, time to get you ready for a nap ::looks at Tranquility starting to dose off::  though some of us may be there sooner than the other ::smiles::

FCOKarlin says:
:: Watches view screen::

OPS_Grift says:
*CO*: sir I was requesting permission to disengage the collectors so we didn't pick up any of those organisms

Capt_Sea says:
*Doug* yes do what you think best

OPS_Grift says:
*CO*: received  :: disengages the bussard collectors::

Capt_Sea says:
XO: lets hold on shuttle for a moment; FCO: steady as she goes

OPS_Grift says:
CSO: See if you can extrapolate the necessary information’s from the data you have on hand

XO_Skyler says:
CO: aye.

Dr_Sea says:
::tries to clean the scan....gathers little information beyond the cloud::

FCOKarlin says:
CO: Aye Steady is the way :: Monitors Debris field::

CSO_Prin says:
OPS: Aye Sir

XO_Skyler says:
CTO: can you get me an estimate of field mass on this thing?

Capt_Sea says:
CSO: please launch a probe to try to examine the mass

CTOchalen says:
XO: The mass is off my scales, sir.

CSO_Prin says:
*CO*  Launching probe sir

CSO_Prin says:
::launches the probe into the mass::

XO_Skyler says:
CTO: ::sarcastic:: wonderful.....just what we need.

Dr_Sea says:
~~ John, I have a bad feeling about this ~~

FCOKarlin says:
CO: Maybe i should get us out of this debris before we are to close to that mass sir?

Host ACTD_Don says:
ACTION: Scans of the probe indicate by the shape and size, that is a Starship.

Capt_Sea says:
~~~ Megan, I don’t like it either, the place is foul with death ~~~

CSO_Prin says:
::reads the data coming in::

Dr_Sea says:
::shudders::

Dr_Sea says:
::turns back to the console and reads the data streaming in from the probe::

CSO_Prin says:
OPS:  We got a starship there, but is it the Postan

CTOchalen says:
CO: Sir recommend we go to red alert.

OPS_Grift says:
CSO: can you get a reading from the subspace beacon?

XO_Skyler says:
::has an uneasy feeling in his gut about this::

FCOKarlin says:
:: Readies for anything::

Dr_Sea says:
~~ sends out a tendril of her mind, trying to contact anyone of that ship ~~

Colleen says:
::finishes getting ready and puts her down for a nap, then turns to Paladine and gets him ready for his nap::

CSO_Prin says:
OPS:  Trying but I'm not getting anything yet

FCOKarlin says:
CO: Sir?

Dr_Sea says:
::close eyes and concentrates::

OPS_Grift says:
CSO: try increasing the signal bandwidth

Capt_Sea says:
~~~ This is a mystery dearest ~~~

CSO_Prin says:
OPS:  the ship is dead, not power, no beacon
