<<<<<<<<<<<<Resume Mission>>>>>>>>>>>
CO_Durron says:
::sitting in the command chair:: ALL: Status report.
CEO_Vernius says:
::On the bridge, hoping against hope::
CEO_Vernius says:
CO: Weapons, shields and Engines Online and ready, Sir.
XO_Odan says:
::exist TL and heads to her chair:: CO: Captain.
CO_Durron says:
XO: Commander.
XO_Odan says:
CO: How are we doing, sir? ::sits::
CO_Durron says:
CEO: What is the status of the SARAH program?
CEO_Vernius says:
CO: She's ready to be brought online, as soon as we do, we can stand down a little more than half the crew, and still maintain Yellow Alert.
CO_Durron says:
XO: We are closing on a cargo freighter and space dock.
XO_Odan says:
CO: I did locate a M-Class planet sir. It's inhabited, but not really populous.
CO_Durron says:
XO: Well that is some glad news.
FCO_Kami says:
::Continues to mess with his course as he checks the course of the other ship.::
CO_Durron says:
FCO: ETA to intercept with cargo vessel, Sierra Four?
XO_Odan says:
CO: It's located near the space station.
CO_Durron says:
XO: Why am I not surprised.
XO_Odan says:
FCO: ETA to the space station?
FCO_Kami says:
XO/CO: 30 minutes to the station, 50 minutes to the freighter.
XO_Odan says:
CO: I guess you will want us to go to the station sir?
CEO_Vernius says:
::raises an eyebrow:: XO: I certainly hope so, we could use a lot of help from them.
CO_Durron says:
XO: Yes.  CEO: What would the chances be of the pirates we ran into having a base this large?
CO_Durron says:
CNS: How long until we can communicate with the station?
CEO_Vernius says:
CO: Non-exisistent, sir. The defenses surrounding the station are of a nature not designed to hide the station. This is highly inconsistent with typical pirate behavior
CNS_Chitwa says:
CO: Ahh...lessee... ::types at her console::
XO_Odan says:
CEO: Any other info you can get about the station? Does it look anything like something SF saw before? People on board? Etc.
CEO_Vernius says:
XO: It doesn't match anything in our databanks, sir. Just like everything else around here.
CO_Durron says:
CEO: Very well, we can drop the act.  FCO/CEO:  Return to standard flight procedures.
CEO_Vernius says:
CO: Aye, sir. ::obeys the Captain's orders::
CEO_Vernius says:
::Has an idea, but is unsure how to implement it:: XO: Sir, I just had a thought. Have you done any scans comparing the ratio of dark matter to real matter? It may give us an indication if we're in the same universe as we came from, and perhaps if we're in a different time.
CNS_Chitwa says:
CO: It's just a few minutes to comm rrrange, sirrr.
XO_Odan says:
CEO: Actually, I don't think we did that comparison. We could indeed look at that... we are running out of options. ::moves to SCI 1::
CEO_Vernius says:
::looks slightly pleased with himself::
CO_Durron says:
CNS: Let me know when you can hail the station.
CNS_Chitwa says:
CO: Of courrrse, sirrr.
XO_Odan says:
::taps on her console to bring the stats needed for the comparison::
CEO_Vernius says:
XO: Do you need me to do anything, Sir?
Host Frank_SM says:
Action: The Station Hails the Europa, giving them docking instructions and welcoming them to Kazushi.
CEO_Vernius says:
::raises an eyebrow at the transmission::
XO_Odan says:
CEO: Not right now, Lt. I'm just gathering all the needed stats. I'll forward them to your console to have another opinion. For now, you can keep on gathering info on that station.
FCO_Kami says:
::Reads over the instructions and begins to follow them to dock the ship.::
CEO_Vernius says:
XO: I wouldn't ask for my opinion, Sir. I don't know the first thing about subspace physics.
FCO_Kami says:
CO: We have received docking instructions and have been welcome to the station. Would you like me to begin docking proceedures?
XO_Odan says:
CO: They seemed a little to open to welcoming us. I would proceed with caution, Capt.
CO_Durron says:
FCO: Lets hold back for just a moment.
CEO_Vernius says:
CO: I agree with the XO, sir. Keep us at yellow alert as long as we can
CO_Durron says:
CNS: Open a channel, full protocol and put it up on the screen.
FCO_Kami says:
CO: Aye, sir. ::Holds and waits for further instructions.::
CNS_Chitwa says:
::nods and does as ordered:: CO: Yes sirrr....channel open.
CO_Durron says:
::stands and folds his hands behind his back::
XO_Odan says:
::now that all the info is on screen, asks the computer to start the comparison::
CO_Durron says:
CNS: On Screen.
Host Frank_SM says:
Action: A very rugged looking alien appears on the screen..
CO_Durron says:
COM: Kazushi: Ops: Hello, I am Captain Durron of the U.S.S. Europa.  To whom am I speaking?
CEO_Vernius says:
::watches the screen with interest::
CNS_Chitwa says:
::looks over at Kami, then back at the screen::
Host Kazushi_Ops says:
@COM: Europa: CO: I am Marikhail, current steward of Kazushi.  Will you be requiring any of our services today?
FCO_Kami says:
::Looks at the screen and raises an eyebrow.::
XO_Odan says:
::takes notes about the comm between the station and the CO::
CO_Durron says:
COM: Kazushi: Ops: We may, however we are...recently arrived in this sector of space and are somewhat low on resources.  What are the standard fees for docking, repair, and resupply, for a ship of our size?
Host Kazushi_Ops says:
@COM: Europa: CO: New to this area eh?  Well Kazushi is the only facility within the corridor.  We have a contract with many private vendors who sell goods and services.  Fee's are negotiated, with a percentage paid to the station, of course.
CO_Durron says:
COM: Kazushi: Ops: Very well we will be docking.  Would it be possible for me to speak with your commanding officer once we have docked?
Host Kazushi_Ops says:
@::Rubs his fingers together:: COM: Europa: CO: That could be arranged....
CEO_Vernius says:
::wonders about the strange man on the screen::
CNS_Chitwa says:
::getting a bad feeling about this::
CO_Durron says:
::sighs getting the message about greased palms:: COM: Kazushi: Ops: Understood.  Forgive me but what is used as currency in this sector?
XO_Odan says:
::forwards the comparison results to the CEO and waits for the CO to conclude his comm before giving him the results::
Host Kazushi_Ops says:
@COM: Europa: You're really not from around here are you?  Latnium, or Dilithium are good.... barter is also common.
CEO_Vernius says:
::checks his panel when it beeps and reads the XO's analysis and grimaces::
CO_Durron says:
COM: Kazushi: Ops: Very well.  We will be docking shortly.  Europa Out.
CO_Durron says:
::signals for the CNS to cut the COMM once the station has finished.::
Host Kazushi_Ops says:
Action: Marikhail grunts then his image disappears from the Europa's screen.
CNS_Chitwa says:
::nods to the Captain and cuts the comm::
XO_Odan says:
CO: Sir. results of the dark matter to real matter ratio comparison reveals that we are in the same time and same universe. Just not, as you know, the same area.
CO_Durron says:
FCO: Begin docking sequence.
FCO_Kami says:
CO: Aye, sir. ::Begins to go through docking procedures for the ship.::
CO_Durron says:
XO: Ok.  I want you to coordinate with Lieutenant Vernius, figure out what we have, and what we need.
CO_Durron says:
::sits back down heavily::
XO_Odan says:
CO: Aye.
CNS_Chitwa says:
CO: Arrre you alrrright, sirrr?
CO_Durron says:
CNS: Yes.  How is the crew holding up?
CNS_Chitwa says:
CO: Morrre strrress then norrrmal, but I think a bit of shorrre leave might help.
CEO_Vernius says:
::nods to the Captain in acceptance of the order::
Host Kazushi_Ops says:
Action: The Europa pull into spacedock and are notified to await further instructions.
Host Kazushi_Ops says:
