Summary:  The Delphyne has received help from an unlikely source.  A communication carried in a phaser blast.  The admiral may have just handed the crew of the Del the help they needed
 
The new recon vessel, the Peacekeeper, seems to be a formidable ship.  But what problems might this experimental vessel hold?
 
During the last hour the crew of the Del has lost a member of its crew, only temporarily...hopefully.  While inspecting a stress fracture in the auxiliary reactor area a coolant pipe ruptured, exposing the CEO to high levels of radiation.
 
For now Lt. Heller has been put in stasis receiving high doses of Hyronalin, a risky procedure for  Hyronalin poisoning is easily  caused by high dosages and is just as lethal as the radiation poisoning it is  meant to cure.  That is why the CEO had to be put in stasis.
 
The Chiku Shan has retreated for the time being.  But it has played a game of cat and mouse with the Del and seems to have no fear of the larger vessel.  Something drives this ship and crew to what the rest of us would call insanity.  But what would drive dedicated officers to do this?
 
Star Trek, A Call to Duty is proud to present the USS Delphyne, Chapter Six-  “Can you believe your     eyes?” What causes the evil men do?.....  Star date 10802.20

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
OPS: Gotten any ideas so far?
 
CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
XO: Nope. This baby is ready to kick some butt commander

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
SO: It depends on whether or not we have the shields to deal with?

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
*CO*: Ma'am I have completed preflight ready to leave the hanger bay.
 
Action: The Del is rocked by a phaser volley from the Chiku Shan, it again disappears into a anomaly

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
*CO*: Everything is green and go , Captain

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
Self: Oh crap not now.

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
OPS: So you think we can at least fly into the...... ::is cut short by the phaser attack::

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
::fingers dance over the tactical console and readies shields and weapons::

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
*XO/FCO*: You are both cleared for take-off. ::growls as the Del rocks:: Get out there now.

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
::calls up her SRS readouts

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
*XO*: Please get that bird out of here now.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
*CTO*: And see what the weapons can do against that damned ship.

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
::Glad that she is strapped into the seat:: *CO*: Aye CTO: McQueen, you heard the Captain.
 
OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
CO: Captain this is getting to be a pain.

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
*FCO*: Let's go.  And watch out for the Chiku Shan, too

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
*CO*: Aye skipper. We’ll make them think twice before messing with us again

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
OPS: Tell me about it.  Have you and Lt DeWitt come up with a way to deliver that inhibitor?

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
::looks to see if the Shan ship is still on the sensors;:

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
::*XO*: Sir, that is an understatement.  We have to get out of here safely first.

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
*CTO*: Keep your trigger finger on the button if you get my drift.

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
SO: Have you been able to get the info on that wormhole that the Chika Shan keeps slipping into?

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
*OPS*: We are leaving the shuttle bay now.

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
::smiles::*FCO*: Give’m hell fly girl
 
FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
::gently lifts the shuttle and takes her out behind the Peacekeeper to help draw fire if the Chiku Shan is out there::

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
CO: There are a couple of possibilities captain depending on whether or not we can get into the wormhole with the ship or not.
 
Action: The Peacekeeper and the shuttlecraft Gobi both launch from the Del's shuttle bay.  The Peacekeeper first out.  As it comes out it is staring down the tubes of the Chiku Shan coming up fast on the Del's stern
 
OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
*FCO*: Roger all doors are opened good luck.

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@::Says an Andorian curse out loud:: CTO: Fire and I'll fly

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@XO: Gotcha boss
 
CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
::sees the sensors and the Chiku Shan and curses, leaps up and limps heavily over to tactical:: SO: Track that ship!

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::brings a torpedo spread up and locks onto the impulse drive::

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
CO/OPS: It isn't an exact duplicate to the Bajoran wormhole, but 80% should be close enough.

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#Self: Oh crap.  ::brings the shields up and slaves tactical to her control::

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@Out loud: Ok, let's see just what you can do, hmmm girl ::pats the board with one hand and moves the Peacekeeper to give McQueen a good shot::

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
::Fires phasers at the Chiku Shan well away from where the Peacekeeper is::

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@XO: I have a lock on there impulse drive, lets see how they like this ::fires the spread::

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#::Brings the shuttle around to add to the peacekeeper's fire::

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
::notices the Chika Shan coming in and hears something like someone killing a cat:: CO: Captain subspace is being flooded with what sounds like some one killing a cat.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
SO: Can we follow it into the wormhole?

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@::Notices that the shields came up right away, files that away in a corner of her mind for later::
 
Action: The Del’s shots peel off a couple hull plates from the saucer section of the Chiku Shan, both narrowly miss the two ships launching

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
::follows the path of the Shan ship::  CO: I wouldn't see way not, if we can be close enough when it opens.

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@::softly growls as she moves the ship away::

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::begins to hum some Wagner softly::
 
@Action: The peacekeeper packs a wallop the Chiku Shan’s impulse drive flickers from the damage.  As it comes back on line bodies are jettisoned from the ship

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::fires the phasers::

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
::targeting the Chiku Shan again:: OPS: Can we even hope that it is that damn Captain of theirs?  Follow as close as you can to the Chiku Shan...let's try and make her run for cover. ::fires phaser again, not daring to use torpedoes with the two smaller ships near by::

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::swears::

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@XO: Wonder how they’d like a full barrage into the bridge

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
*XO*: Commander...keep close to the Chiku Shan...we are going to follow as close as we can and try to get into the wormhole with them.  Don't get left behind.

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::locks phasers and torpedoes onto the bridge and fires::
 
#Action : The shuttle is shaken by the output of the Peacekeepers engines, following too close behind would be difficult

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@::A beep from the console:: CTO: You notice that when we damage them they unload bodies?  ::goes into a series of loops and dives, before bringing the little gal back up::

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
:: brings the ship around and follows as close as he can:: CO: Aye captain if not maybe we can make it so. Also the Chika Shan’s shield are down by 38 %.

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@XO: Yep, lets hope it’s no-one we know

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@*CO*: Understood

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#*XO*: Watch the jet wash.....::struggles to bring the shuttle straight again::

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
SO: Anything we should know before we follow her in?
 
Action: All 3 ships close in on the smaller Cheyenne class

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
OPS: 38%?  Wow that is some fire power...

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::locks onto the bridge and fires again::

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
*XO*: Keep up the firing...her shields are almost down.

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
CO: Oh... well there is no promise of being able to come back... or know where it goes.
 
@Action: The damage is obvious but like before the ship is healing itself

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@CTO: Agreed, but what if that means something.  ::another roll:: *FCO*: Same for you Lt.  CTO: What if by keeping them on board they take away resources?

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#::brings the shuttle around and fires the phasers at the same point where the Peacekeeper is firing::

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
::sees where the CTO is targeting and targets the same area...the bridge...and fires again::

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
SO: If we could get a hole in those shields we can transport the inhibitor onboard.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
OPS/SO: Where do we need that hole to be?

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
OPS: I am sending you the analysis of the shielding highlighting their weakest point.

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@*CO*: Aye Ma'am ::Brings the little gal back up:: CTO: You heard her

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::nods as he brings up another firing solution on the bridge::

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#*XO*: If you keep firing at the same place I believe it will be impossible to repair itself.

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
::also sends it to the CO;:
 
@#Action: An anomaly forms in front of the Chiku Shan
 
CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@XO: She burns more fuel than a normal runabout we better keep an eye on that boss

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#::inputs a new firing pattern in and ...::

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
SO: Where is the best place Engineering ?

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
CO: there it is... forming in front of them now.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
::sees the anomaly:: OPS: Follow her in!

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#*XO*: New anomaly she is going to disappear.

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::lets loose another volley into the bridge::

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
*XO/FCO*: Follow her in!

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#::hears the captain::

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@*FCO*: Let's hope so, Lt.  CTO: Noted *FCO*: Follow us

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
:: pushes the Del :: CO Aye captain following her in.

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
OPS: I am not an engineer... I just know those points highlighted are its weakest

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#*XO*: Right behind you.  Bringing shields to full now.  ::hands dance over the console and follows the peacekeeper::

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::watches the weapons recycle::

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@::touches the control and moves little gal in line to follow the Del::

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#::prays her senior FCO can handle the ship::
 
Action : The Chiku Shan enters the anomaly

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
SO: All we need is somewhere near the ventilation system would be the best.

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@Self: Your not getting away you bugger

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@CTO: Scan the Chiku Shan.  I want to see what happens to them as they go in

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
:: pushes the Del a little harder to make it in before the anomaly closes::

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::runs a scan of the Chiku Shan::

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
OPS: Get it on the ship and it will get to the vents on its own
 
@#Action: All 3 ships follow the Chiku Shan into the tunnel.  It is a rough ride at best
 
CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::shifts targeting solution to ME::

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#Self: Oh this is not good.  ::reinforces the shields::

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
::hangs on to the console as she monitors the SRS and LRS::

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
::holds onto the console:: *XO*: Hold your fire until we analyze what it will do in the wormhole.

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@::Works to make sure her hands don't hit the wrong control as they ride out the rough:: CTO: Hold on

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
SO: So we transport into the center of the ship here:: show the SO the location::

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::adjusts the SIF and Shields::

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@*CO*: Aye

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
OPS: Looks good.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
SO: Lt...find out what weapons fire will do in here.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
OPS: Keep her steady and stay close.

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#::hands flying over her console, she adjusts the pitch and the heading and reinforces the IDF and SIF and shields::
 
Action : The anomaly seems to follow the direction the chiku shan takes, not the other way around

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::sends a staggered spread into the Chiku Shan::

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
CO: As close and steady as I can Captain.

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
::tries to analyze the affect on the wormhole::  CO: It would more than likely destabilize the wormhole... but I am trying to verify

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#::watches her scanners and sees something weird::

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@CTO: Hold your fire

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::ceases fire::

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#*SO*: Am I seeing things or does the anomaly seem to be forming around the Chiku Shan?

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@CTO: What did you get from the scans?

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
*FCO*: We are seeing the same thing too.

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
:: scans the Chika Shan to see if the shields are still up::
 
Action : The CTO's fire hits the Chiku Shan bringing its shields down to 22%.  Suddenly the wormhole changes color and all 3 ships are thrown against each other.  All sustaining damage to the shields dropping them by 27%

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::looks up and swears::

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#Self:: Oh crap.....

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
::holding on as the Del rocks:: *XO/FCO*: Damage report!

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#*XO*: Look out.....::pulls off steeply::

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
::searches for holes in the shield of the Shan ship::

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
CO: Captain I would suggest you have the other ships stop firing that last hit dropped our shields by 27 %.

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@::Grunts as she tries to keep little gal away from the others::

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#*CO*: Only have shield damage.   Managed to veer off.

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::holds on::

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
CO: I think the wormhole just attacked us.

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@*CO*: Shield damage here, Captain

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
OPS: They've already gotten the order, Lt.  Scan the ship and see if you can get a sense of what's going on there.  Is there a lot of activity or are they in rest mode?

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::begins adjusting the power systems::

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#XO*: I think maybe the anomaly doesn't like us.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
SO: I wouldn't put it past it.  Are the shields still up on the Chiku Shan?

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
CO/OPS: There now!  A hole where the saucer meets the main hull!

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@CTO: You think that means that the Chiku Shan and this anomoly are attached to each other?

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
::sends them the coordinates::

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
CO: Scanning now Captain their shield are down to 22% I will have the rest in a couple of seconds.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
OPS: Transport the inhibitor over there.

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@XO: I would say they are

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#*XO*: What if one of us hits the anomaly the other the ship?  What would happen?

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
*XO/FCO*: See what you can do to get your shields repaired while in here.  If we can't fire…then we can hope that they can't either.

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
:: transports the inhibitor to the Chika Shan:: CO : Aye Captain transporting now.

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#*CO*: Understood.

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::begins rerouting power to the shields::

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
::tries to monitor the spread of the inhibitor::

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
SO: Can we transport people in here...without and danger to them?

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@::Quickly rubs a hand over her head:: *CO*: Aye.  *FCO*: I'd rather not find out the answer to that one Lt.

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#::hands dance over her console trying to repair her shields::

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#*XO*:  I agree.  Bad idea.

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@XO: One ugly mother isn’t it

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
::analyzes the transport of the inhibitor to see if people could make it::  CO: Captain it is little more than a guess... but I think we can beam in.

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
:: reroutes power to the shields::
 
Action: The transport was complete for the inhibitors, but so far nothing has happened

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
OPS: How are they creating this wormhole?  It's almost like a Trans warp tube.

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::watches the Chiku Shan::

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@CTO: You've said a mouthful.  Check the scans and if you see anything we might be able to use send it to the Del.  I'll work on the shields

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
CO/OPS: The inhibitor doesn't seem to be spreading so far

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
SO: Do we have anymore inhibitor to distribute?

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
CO: I have the computer working on that now Captain and hope to have an answer soon.

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
::checks the supplies::

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#*XO*: I show the velocity indicators standing at zero.

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@::Taps a command into the console, un-straps and moves to work on fixing the shields::

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
:: checks the speed again:: CO: Captain it seems that we aren't moving?

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@XO: Velocity indicators show zero boss

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
CO: I can replicate more.

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
SO: how long?

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
OPS: The more you want the longer it will take

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
SO: Make more and the try transporting the inhibitor in the nearest ventilation system to that hole in the shields.

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@::Antennae wiggle:: CTO: Zero??  Double check that *FCO*: You too, Lt.  Double check that

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
CO: Aye ma'am.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
OPS: What do you mean we aren't moving?
 
FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#::double checks her readings::

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
::starts replicating more of the compound::

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::checks the data again:: XO: I’m sure boss

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#*XO*: We are at zero velocity.  We are not moving.

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
CO/OPS: It may be like a boat on a river... the wormhole is moving but we are not.

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@XO: Boss shields are holding steady. They are not charging or losing power. Also engine output is normal but were not moving

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#*XO*: Something like the engines look like normal but we are not going anywhere.

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
CO: Just that Captain the velocity meter shows at zero even though the engines are showing normal output.

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
::as the computer makes more inhibitor, looks for the closes vents near the hole in the Shan's shields::

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@::mutters a string of curses in both Deltan and Andorian:: CTO/*FCO*: Okay.  ::Taps badge:: *CO*: Captain, McQueen and Dorvan tell me that we aren't moving. We're at zero ::twist a connection together::

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
SO: That could be a good possibility.

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@CTO: What's the shield read now?
 
Info: The Chiku Shan is still where it was, its not moving...and isn’t repairing itself either

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
*XO*: We are getting that also.  Lt. Dewitt thinks that the wormhole is moving...not us.
 
OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
CO: Captain this is interesting the Chika Shan isn't repairing itself at the moment.

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@*CO*: Interesting.  Just when you think you've seen it all...... ::trails off::

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
::looks at the sensors again:: OPS: I see that.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
OPS: Check the records and see if it was repairing itself before we sent the inhibitor over.

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
::has a strange thought::  Out loud: I wonder......

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@XO: The same

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
SO: We have anymore inhibitor to transport yet?
 
Action: A text only message is being received by all 3 of the Delphyne vessels

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::begins checking the sensors::

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
::shakes her head clear and answers the question::  OPS: Some.

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@XO: Incoming text message

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
CO: captain we are getting a text message.

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@CTO: What's it say?

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
OPS: Put t up on the screen

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::pulls up the message::

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@XO: It says; help me before they wake up

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
CO: Aye Captain :: puts the message up on screen and it says" Help me before they wake up::

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::tries to identify the sender::

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
OPS: Do we know where on the ship that message originated from?
 
XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@::Turns back to the open access panel and moves a couple of other connections:: CTO: What's it .... ::pauses as he reads the text:: Who sent it?  Was it the same one who sent us little gal here? 

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
OPS: Any idea who sent it?

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@XO: Working on it boss

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
CO: Working on that now Captain.
 
XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@::Grabs a tri-corder to scan her work freeing up McQueen to work on the text message::

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@XO: only that it came from the Chicken Sandwich

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@XO: Sorry the Chiku Shan

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
SO: What's the time frame between the last time the Chiku Shan was damaged and disappeared to when it reappeared again?

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
CO; Captain all I can tell is that it is from the Chika Shan.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
OPS: Understood....how long have we been in this anomaly?

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@::Antennae twitch:: CTO: That doesn't make much sense.  Check with the Del.  ::Mutters:: CTO: And the shield systems are reading fine, just not charging

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
CO: About 20 minutes now Captain.

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::begins trying to track down the messages sender::

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
::pulls up the data on her console::  CO: There doesn't seem to be a set time between them disappearing and reappearing

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@*OPS*: Did you receive that message too?

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
OPS: Send a reply back..."What are your coordinates?"

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
::scans the ship looking for someone who "seems" to be awake on the Shan ship::

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@::moves back into her seat and straps back in, making sure it's tight::

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
*CTO* Roger Ty we did also.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
SO: Calculate how long it would take to transport everyone off that ship through that gap in the their shields.

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@OPS: I’m trying to find out who sent it. Are you able to tell?

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
::CO: Aye

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
CO: Roger Captain :: sends a text message back to the Chiku Shan::
 
OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
*CTO*: No I am sending a message now to see if we can fine out who.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
*XO*: It appears that the crew is asleep but not all of the hostages.  We're trying to find out who and see how many we can transport off before they awake again.

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@OPS: Ok. Good luck my friend

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
::pulls up how many people are on the Shan ship and divides it by how many the three ships can transport::

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
CO: Captain you are not going to believe this it is Prilar himself.

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@*CO*: Understood, Captain.  Do you think it could have been teh same one who sent us this nice package?

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::begins scanning the Chiku Shan for the source of the transmission::

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
OPS: Can you lock onto whoever is on the bridge and transport them off?

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
*CTO* : Hey Ty guess who it is?

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
OPS: What is his game?  Did he send you coordinates?

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@*OPS*: Shoot buddy

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
CO: Aye Captain seems that he is the only Caitian onboard so it is no problem. :: transports Prilar to the brig:: Transporting him to the brig now captain.
 
OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
*CTO* : It is Prilar himself.

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@*OPS*: You gotta be kidding?

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
CO: It would take 1 hour and 45 minutes to get all of them off

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::looks at the XO in surprise::

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
OPS: Transport everyone else off of the bridge and straight to the brig...no matter who they are.
 
Action: Captain Prilar materializes in one of the brig cells.  But someone knows, the Chiku Shan is repairing itself again

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@CTO: Did he say Prilar?

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
SO: Start pulling people off of that ship...start with those in the holds and their sickbay.

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@XO: That’s what he said

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
::nods to the CO and works on transporting people out of the holds and sickbay:

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
CO: Aye Captain Transporting now. ::starts transporting everyone off the Chiku Shan's bridge and to the Del Brig.::

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@CTO: Check the Chiku Shan again.

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@:: runs another set of scans of the Chiku Shan::

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@::Tries to find a way to get their shields to charge again::

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
::putting everyone in the brig as the CO ordered and informs sickbay::

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
:; scans the Chiku Shan:: CO: Captain it looks like the Chiku Shan is repairing itself again.

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::begins looking for power drains of the ships power systems::
 
Action: The transport begins, something about the anomaly is slowing the transport, but 15 at a time are being taken off the Chiku Shan

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
OPS: Dammit...keep transporting as many as you can.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
SO/OPS: When the brig is full send them to cargo bay 4.

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
CO: Should I transport more inhibitor?

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
SO: We may have to put up some force field in a cargo bay and use that as a brig area as well.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
*Security*: Full detail to cargo bay 4...secure it.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
SO: yes....into their ventilation system

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
::informs CB4 to prepare::

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
::takes a moment from transporting personnel to sending more inhibitor over into the vents of the Shan ship::

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
::then goes back to transporting personal over to the Del::

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
OPS: On it

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
::sets up a force field around cargo bay 4::
 
Action: The Chiku Shan disappears.  With a sudden shock the Del and her support craft have return to their prior speed and are getting a rough ride through the tunnel

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@Self: Whoa

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@XO: Sensors show us returning to our prior cruising speed

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@::tries to fly through the roughest:: CTO: Was there any warning?

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
::grabs her console again::

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
:: sees what is happening:: All: hold on this may get rough.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
*XO/FCO*: Get close enough so that we can extend our shields around you.
 
Action: The tunnel is destabilizing knocking the ships around and into each other

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@*FCO*/CTO: You heard the Captain

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::holds on::

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
::tries to extend the shields around all three ships::
 
Action : The Del’s shields are strained but cover all the ships

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
::tries to see how many they managed to transport over::

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#::makes the attempt  to get closer to the Delphyne::

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@::Moves the little gal closer, trying to avoid hitting the Del::
 
Action : In a burst of bright light the tunnel disappears.  All the ships are in normal space, but it looks very different from where they left

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
:; shuts down the proximity alarms seeing how all they are doing is being annoying at the moment::

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::begins rerouting power to SIF::

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#Self: Come on baby.  Whoa...what is going on?

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
::sees that they are out of the tunnel:: OPS: Bring us to a stop, Lt.

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@::Runs a position fix::

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
*XO/FCO*: Return to the ship, both of you.

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@::Brings the little gal to a stop:: CTO: What is this?

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#::brings the shuttle to a stop and turns it around and heads back to the Delphyne::

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#*XO*: We are not in Kansas any more sir.

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@XO: Doesn’t look like our normal space

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@*CO*: Aye, Captain.  Returning to the Del

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
SO: Find out where we are, Lt.

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
:: sees that they are back in normal space and starts checking to see where they are:: CO: Aye Captain bring us to full stop. And I am working on where we are at.

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
CO: We got a total of 35.  Sickbay has been informed that we have injured.

FCO_Lt_Dorvan says:
#*CO*: Coming home Captain.

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@*FCO*: 'Kansas'?  ::eyebrows are up:: CTO: What is she talking about?

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
SO: Did we clear their bridge?

CTO_Ltjg_McQueen says:
@XO: An old earth saying

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
CO: No ma'am... only their CO

XO_Cmdr_Llynisika says:
@::Antennae wiggle and she sighs:: CTO: I see.  *FCO*: I'll take your word on that Lt.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
::straightens up and pulls down her uniform jacket:: OPS: You have the conn.  There's a certain cat I want to speak to before I skin him and hang his pelt on my ready room wall. ::heads to the turbo lift::

SO_Lt_Dewit says:
CO: My focus was on sickbay and their hold

OPS_Lt_Twelk says:
CO: captain Can I have his liver when you done. ::Smiles::
 
Action: The Shuttlecraft and the Peacekeeper return to the hanger bay, scratched a bit but in tact.  The Delphyne has only sustained minor damage to her hull.  Repairs should be made quickly.  A crying and seemingly thankful Prilar sit in the corner of his cell crying.  The navigation computers have made compensations and the Del’s position is… Andoria.
