Host Tim says:
Believing they had gotten permission to visit the Nacandarian queen the Dublin is enroute to Nacandar, following far behind a Nacandarian fleet that is leading the way.

Host Tim says:
The Dublin crew has shown concerns over the lack of comm with the rest of the task force... where are they?  Do they need help?

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
::in engineering checking the warp core :: *XO*: Commander we have a problem.  The dilithium crystals are breaking down...going sour if you prefer.  We have to substitute with the power crystals used in this area of space.  We have some on board that were brought back by the Nighthawk

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
::at OPS listening to the gossip from their little fleet::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
OPS:  Any word from the other wings, Mia?

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
::turns and smiles at her husband for a moment::

SO_PO_Sirta says:
::at SCI II as usual on the bridge, seeing the Captain vaguely mesmerized by the streaking stars on the viewer:: Self: Do all captains do that on long trips like this?

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::drums his fingers on to his chair console::

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:

SO_PO_Sirta says:
::cringes, wishing the XO hadn't said that so soon::

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
CO: The interference has cleared up a little.  Trying the Nighthawk and Vesuvius now. ::listens to her earpiece::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::stands, can't stay sitting any longer, then begins pacing around the lower deck::

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
*CEO*: That sounds like the only thing we can do.  Go ahead.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::looks at the XO with the corner of his eye::  XO:  That is true.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::puts hand over Cassie's shoulder::  FCO:  Bored already?

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
::bites her lower lip as she concentrates:: CO: Sir...I'm getting an audio only from the Vesuvius...it's still a little staticy but the Vesuvius is at Varnaxia trying to help the V'Rax find a cure.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
::Continues the scans at the tactical station, getting regular reports from the security team leaders throughout the ship.::

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
*XO*: As you wish commander, please take us out of warp.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
CO: Of course not. I just miss the children and Nanny Grace.

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
::listens even closer:: CO: I'm also getting s report from the Nighthawk.  They found a group of resistance fighters and are going to Nacandar with a 30 ship fleet.

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
::her face falls hearing the engineer's request::  CO: Captain, Mr. Kell advises us we need to drop out of warp.  I'll comm the Nacandarians to let them know, too.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
OPS:  Hmm... So the V'Rax have accepted our help, while the Nacandarian reject it.

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
::shrugs:: CO: I think the Nacandarians blame us for the problem.

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
FCO: Commander, can we lessen speed until we are out of warp, please.  ::waits for the groans at this slowing of their progress::

SO_PO_Sirta says:
::keeps her ears and antennae "tuned" to the conversations through the bridge while gazing passively on the LRS monitor::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
::Spends the free time, rereading what is known about the Naca's, while keeping an eye on the sensors.::

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
CO: I could probably send a message to both fleets...at least for a little while.  Would you like me to update them with our status and what we found?

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
::turns to Tessa:: XO: We can manage impulse ma'am.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
OPS:  Do it, send them all the information we have so far.

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
OPS:  Ensign, can you open a channel to Phlux for me?

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
XO: Drop out of warp then Commander?

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
CO: Aye sir. ::sends their info to the Nighthawk and Vesuvius and then requests a comm with Phlux::

::notices the SO gazing at the CTO::  SO:  Is there a problem here?  ::looking serious::

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
::Shares a look with Sirta just keeping her face polite as she grins slightly, knowing the mind of the science crewmen.::

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
SO: Anything on the LRS?

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
*CEO*: Five full hours, Ensign?  But it is needed, correct?

SO_PO_Sirta says:
::caught visibly by surprise:: CO: Ehhh, n-no, sir. Just flexing my neck. ::feels the blood in her face heat up in embarrassment:: CTO: Nothing more than the fleet ahead of us near the LRS limit, ma'am.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
::"Good save" she thinks to herself, wondering if she could get a chess game in.::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::looks at the CTO::  CTO:  Lieutenant?  I hope you have nothing to report.

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
::shakes her head::  OPS:  Of course, I had forgotten.  Well, put out a hail to the lead ship, then.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
SO: Thanks SO.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
CO: No Sir, everything’s quiet so far, it appears nothing on even the LRS and security reports ready. The ships tactical systems are standing by.

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
:: calls EO LaBoy over to aid him in the replacement.  Motions for a spanner and begins to remove access plate :: *XO*: I am afraid so commander, 5 hours.  I will be integrating aligning crystals into our system.  If I do not change the crystals now, we won't be able to maintain warp speed for very long.

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
*CEO*:  Then by all means, please start integrating immediately.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
SO:  I see...  I want you to take good care of that station... I used to work over there.  ::turns, but then glances at the SO again::  SO:  Well, not there exactly, but on the Gryphon.  ::smiles a bit and returns to the lower deck::

SO_PO_Sirta says:
::thinks she needs to introduce the CTO to her name so she doesn't get called petty officer or SO any more::

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
XO: Aye ma'am. ::hails the lead ship::

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
*XO*: I have already begun...Kell out.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
CTO:  Good... check with Mr. Kell what will be our tactical status as soon as he begins replacing the dilithium crystals.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
CO: Yes Sir.

SO_PO_Sirta says:
::not recognizing the name:: CO: The Gryphon, sir? I'm sorry to say I'm not familiar with it. ::bites her lips realizing this isn't the time for small talk....or is it?::

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
::stands up and wishes she could stretch.  As the Captain moves nearer she says quietly:: CO:  Sir, permission to pace, too?  ::smiles wryly::

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
::Turns to her console once again.:: *CEO*:Ensign Kell, soon as your able I'll need information on how those crystal changes will affect us, tactical wise. If you please.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
SO:  Our former vessel...  destroyed a couple of years ago.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
::wonders if this delay is going to cost them dearly::

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
::watches Mauro as he answers the question about the Gryphon::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:

SO_PO_Sirta says:
::feels foolish, not having much education in Starfleet history while in boot camp:: CO: Oh...I'm sorry. I didn't know, sir. ::looks sorta sad, going back to her work::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
FCO:  Impulse still online, right?

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
CO: Aye sir, and holding steady.

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
CO:  Thank you, sir.  ::meanders over to the science officer and leans against the console.  Offhandedly mentions:: SO:  I came aboard as counselor right after the Dublin had launched.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
FCO:  I take the wing has dropped out of warp as well...  ::grins::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
CO: Yes Captain, all ships have reduced speed.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
::Waits for the CEO's reply to her message, figuring things must be pretty busy down there.::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::goes behind the pit::  OPS:  Tell me they have got our status and information...

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
::pulls his head out of the access tube :: *CTO*: Of course lieutenant.  Your phasers and shields will still operate.  You will be fighting without warp drive to augment the shields and the photon torpedoes will take longer to charge without the power from the main drive.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::listens to the CEO's reply to Paige::

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
::nods:: CO: Aye sir...the Nighthawk and the Vesuvius responded that they received it.  But I can't find the Scimitar anywhere.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
*CEO*: How much longer will the lack of recharge add to my torpedo reload time?

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
::Makes a note that shields and phasers will be more limited than usual.::

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
::looks over at LaBoy :: LaBoy: Are all the women on this ship impatient?

SO_PO_Sirta says:
XO: You did? How long ago was this, ma'am?

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
OPS/FCO:  Tell me something...  would you like to have quantum torpedoes onboard?  ::smiles::

Host Tim says:
ACTION: THE NACANDARIAN FLEET HAS REDUCED SPEED TO MATCH THE DUBLIN WING

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
::tilts her head, trying to remember::  SO:  I'm not sure really...seems like light years ago now.  Perhaps over two years?  ::shakes her head:: Just not sure.  A lot has happened since then...

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::glares at Mia for a few seconds::  OPS:  If we ever get it, you can.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
*CEO*: Ensign Kell, this is Commander Adams-MacLeod. I need to know how long this delay is going to add to our flight time?

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
*CTO*: Your reload time will be approximately twice as long.

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
::stifles a chuckle at Mia's comment::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
OPS:  I don't think the Scimitar has gone through the rift...  seems to me it was closed right after we got in.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
OPS/FCO:  Which is a real problem for us now.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
::Groans silently to herself. thinks to self. "I hope we don't get attacked.::*CEO*:Thank you Engineering. Harker out.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
OPS/FCO:  Or should I say, one more?  ::shakes head and smiles::

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
:: starting to lose his patients :: *FCO*: As I told the XO commander approximately 5 hours to finish, pending further interruptions.

SO_PO_Sirta says:
XO: I'll bet... ::is grateful for the moment of mild distraction:: ...this is actually my first assignment. I came onboard just prior to this mission.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
CO: Twice as long on torpedoes, no extra energy from the warp drive for shields and the like.. in short, fighting would not be recommended.

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
::grins and listens to her earpiece:: CO: I'll keep trying them.  But sir...I imagine once we clear up this silly misunderstanding with the Nacandarians, they will open a rift for us.

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
*CEO*: Please notify helm control as soon as you are finished.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
<Crewman Daniels>  ::enters Main Engineering::  CEO:  Mr. Kell sir...

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
*FCO*: Why of course Commander.

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
SO:  A lot of excitement, isn't it?  ::smiles wryly::  I do rather prefer this monotony to a dozen ships pointing their whole weapon's array at us though.

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
Daniels: Yes crewman what is it?

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
<Crewman Daniels>  CEO:  How long until we return to warp speed?  I was making a picture in my quarters about the warp trail.  Will that take too long yet?

SO_PO_Sirta says:
XO: Agreed, though my uncle on the USS Saber might disagree with you, preferring the action ::grins::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
CTO:  Then we'll try to avoid any conflicts.

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
SO:  Action I don't mind...as long as it doesn't include bloodshed.  I was also the Dublin's CMO for...oh...forever it seems.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
FCO:  Kidding why, Cas?  ::leans over the pit::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
CO: Just what we need, more torpedoes.

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
:: thinks to himself, 'just kill him it would be quicker' :: Daniels: Within 5 hours crewman.  Since you will find yourself without something to do for that time then you spend that time assisting engineer Little with the servicing of waste management.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
CO: Yes Sir.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::frowns::  FCO:  Are you going to tell me you would not like to have quantum torpedoes launchers installed onboard the Dublin?

SO_PO_Sirta says:
XO: Going from lifesaving to calling the hard decisions...if it were me, I'd stay put in a teal shirt. I hear life as a redshirt is....well....hazardous, or so the myth goes.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
::Turning back to her station she hopes their current status of not being shot at continues.::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
::sighs:: CO: If it will make the "other" guys stop attacking us, then I guess so.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
<Crewman Daniels>  ::eyes go widen, in surprise::  CEO:  Eeerrr..  yes sir... of course..  is there anything I can do, besides waste management?

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
::Listens in on what the Captain is talking about with the FCO and secretly hopes they will get quantum torps someday.::

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
::reflects on that and sighs::  SO:  I don't know about hazardous, but everyone sees you differently when you don that color.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::whispers::  FCO:  That would be a good reason, sweetie.  ::smiles::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
::looks down at the controls for a moment::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
OPS:  Mia...  anyone who can open a rift for us is now our friend.

SO_PO_Sirta says:
XO: Perhaps you might have met him at a medical conference before, or perhaps not, but a clan cousin of mine by the name of Joveleth Hy'Qiin once considered a command position himself, that is until his brother died just before the Dominion War... ::voice trails off::

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
Daniels: Of course...once you finish with waste management then report to me for further reassignment.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
::While keeping an eye on the tactical readouts, she runs some situation drills for the security teams to keep them awake.::

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:
::giggles:: CO: I imagine the Nacandarians would want us to leave as soon as possible after all this mess is over with.  They will probably push us out of their space.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
<Crewman Daniels>  ::holds a grimace::  CEO:  Aye sir... ::in a heavy tone::  Self:  Damn it... ::mumbles::

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
::thinks for a second, trying to place a blue face, then shakes her head slowly:: SO:  Maybe one of the Andorian's I met was your cousin, but I don't remember that name...  ::raises an eyebrow and smiles::  Oh, yes...I do.  Is someone by the name of Kizlev Hy'Quiin related to you by any chance?

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:

SO_PO_Sirta says:
::gazes at an oddity on her monitor:: Self: Hmm, what mischief is this I wonder... ::notes the activity:: CO: Sir, the Nacandarian fleet is attempting a deep space scan on us.

OPS_Ens_Clooney says:

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
::The SO's words jerk her focus back to the tactical readouts.::

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
::suddenly goes serious::  SO:  Hmm... let them do it.  They are still concerned about our true intentions.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
SO: Nothing else, no overt threats?

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
OPS: I could use a few new things myself.

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
:;stands up and looks at the SO's scans for herself::  SO: Still don't trust us, do they?

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
CO:  Captain, could they be looking for something in particular aboard our ship?

SO_PO_Sirta says:
::blinks, hearing her clan "heir's" name:: XO: I...you know of that run ::keeps herself from saying "runt":: I mean, you met him? CTO: Nothing else, no ma'am. CO/XO: They just seem a little too curious I suppose.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
::narrows her eyes at the science officer, 'picking up' on the derogatory feelings::  SO:  Kizlev was an outstanding officer...Ensign.  I have a lot of respect for him.

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
*XO*: Commander my earlier estimate needs to be updated.  It is going to take over 5 hours; the articulation frame has become misaligned.

SO_PO_Sirta says:
CO: It is a broad spectrum analysis, sir. It's.... ::notes a change in refinement:: ....now they've narrowed their focus on weapons and shields, sir.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
SO: Did they get anything?

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
Self:  What?!  *CEO*:  Over five?  And could you tell me how the articulation frame suddenly became misaligned?

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
All:  Let them scan...  we have nothing to hide.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
CO: Sir may I point out they may wish to find out more about our systems for an attack.

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
*XO*: A crewman interrupted the process.  He has been disciplined I assure you.  He is enjoying training in the field of waste management.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
::Thinks to self, "Just because I'm paranoid, doesn't mean they aren't out to get me."::

SO_PO_Sirta says:
XO: I guess he is, though I hardly knew much of him myself. Our clan patriarch favored him the most, so it's no wonder he ended up an officer. CTO: I believe they have as we are taking no strides to conceal our signature.

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:

FCO_Cmdr_Adams-MacLeod says:
*CEO*: Kell, Adams-MacLeod here again. Did you say that we have another delay to getting the warp systems back on line?

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
CO:I can try Sir but if they've already scanned us that may not be fooled by changing signatures, even several times.

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
::turns interestedly to listen to the update::

SO_PO_Sirta says:
CO: Only the eight Nacandarian vessels ahead remain, sir. The V'Rax ships have set course back to their home territory.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
CTO:  Do it anyway... since we're showing troubles to go to warp, they may think we are having some issues with our power grid... fluctuations.

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
*CEO*:  Thank you.  I appreciate your hard work.

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
CO: Yes Sir.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
CTO:  As long as they get confused...

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
CO:I hope so sir. I'm on it.

XO_LtCr_Jakiel_OMallory says:
All:  Perhaps after seeing our weapon display they don't consider us a threat anymore?

CEO_Ens_Kell says:
*FCO*: Why yes I did commander.  But I have discovered something else.  Comm badges do not operate inside the dilithium access port, every time I receive a comm I have to exit the chamber.  This may lead to further delays.  Just making you aware Commander.

CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
SO:  Good...  eight against four... we can beat these odds.  ::smiles::

CTO_LtJg_Harker says:
*CEO*: Ensign I need an engineer to fiddle with our energy output, make it look like a malfunction, we need the effect of confusing the Naca's as to our weapons ability.
