Captain Lewis
ACTION:  AS THE CREW CONTINUES TRYING TO MAKE CONTACT..... A SUDDEN BURST OF LIGHT IS SEEN.......
Cmdr. Tucker
Bridge Crew: Since this ship is made up of so many parts, there must be some fed tech on there, we know all of our own weaknesses, maybe we could use that knowledge against them?

Ltjg Nim Ber
Cmdr: ?? sir??
Lt. McDowell
::reminds himself to work on his Southern drawl::
Cmdr. Mitchell
::thinks what's the worst thing they could do?  blow us out of this universe?::
Captain Lewis
@Heinlein:: shrug...i'd think more like hostages.......or bait
Cmdr. Dresden
@CO:  To threaten our ship to leave...we can assume that they are threatened by Geneva or else they would have just tried to slug it out with us.
Ltjg Nim Ber
Cmdr: we can do the same thing
Cmdr. Mitchell
XO: Cmdr. The alien ship is powering up.
Ens G Heinlein
@Captain :perhaps a bit of both ?
Cmdr. Tucker
{#}Mcdowell: Understood, what about weapons, we may need something creative.
Dr.(Lt.) Landt
::scans place where heinlein was and only finds traces of his dna on the carpet.::
Captain Lewis
@Dresdan: yes they could have destroyed us like the other ship....they want something.....
Captain Lewis
Heilein: perhaps....
Cmdr. Dresden
@CO: In this way, they can just threaten to kill us...while they may be able to transport through shields...they may not have the firepower.
Cmdr. Mitchell
::coordinates navigational and weapons systems into one console::
Ltjg Nim Ber
Cmdr: i can use the dimensional shift to transport us over there.
Captain Lewis
@Dresdan, Heinlein: with there mix of technology i couldn't venture to guess at this moment
Lt. McDowell
{#}XO: Now that isn't affected at all, oddly enough. In fact, more power's goin' to th' phasers than normal. It's like there's a valve stuck in a conduit that's sending the warp power to the phasers.
Cmdr. Tucker
Ber: ::nods:: Very well, Mitchell: Tell them we'll leave if they give us some time.
Ens G Heinlein
@Captain : If we are either and figure out why . we may be able to turn it to our advantage
Captain Lewis
@Dresdan: sensors indicated they definately have the weapons
Cmdr. Tucker
Mitchell: Apparently we're going to have to take our crew back by force.
Captain Lewis
@heinlein: that is true of most things in life......is it not?
Cmdr. Dresden
@CO: Maybe you are right there, sir...but since we are here...letssee if we can find out what we can do.
Ens G Heinlein
@Captain : Yes it is 
Captain Lewis
ACTION:  THE MESSAGE REPEATS ITSELF.....LEAVE OR DIE

Cmdr. Dresden
@ CO:  That is really the only tech that I know of that could pass through our shields.
Captain Lewis
[Ship] <com>  you're engines are not very powerful but they seem to be working.......use them and Leave now
Cmdr. Mitchell
Ber: Would the interphasic shield generator do us any good here?
Ltjg Nim Ber
{#} McDowell: set the defelctor dish for high energy output
Cmdr. Tucker
Mitchell: Allright, move us off a ways, then stop us dead still, as if we are having engine trouble,and send a message saying so. maybe they'll believe that for a bit.
Captain Lewis
ACTION: THE SHIP BEGINS MOVING CLOSER TO THE GENEVA
Lt. McDowell
::rolls chair across the deck plating to the core containment console::
Ltjg Nim Ber
Mitchell: working on that right now , sir
Cmdr. Mitchell
XO: Aye, aye
Cmdr. Mitchell
::nods to Ber::

@Dresdan/Heilein: any ideas??  can we open the hatch there?
Lt. McDowell
{#}Ber: As I say, one thing at a time. Please take a number and I'll get to you in about... ::hits a button:: Oh, forget what I said.
Ens G Heinlein
@Captain : I am afraid that either my exhaustion is too great or whoever is holding us is telepathically inert

{#}Mcdowell: WHat else can you give me for weapons, tricobalt devises won't work through shields right?
Captain Lewis
@Heinlein: hmmm...you are on the tired side.....maybe... you should sit down and rest a bit......
Dr.(Lt.) Landt
::tries to see if communications are off with heinlein::
Ltjg Nim Ber
::ok, now, dimensional shift, lets get the frequency::
Cmdr. Mitchell
::stops the ship cold::
Cmdr. Dresden
@CO: If we had a phaser it would be easier...lets take a look around, though.
Captain Lewis
@Dresden:: ::Nods::
Dr.(Lt.) Landt
{#}  Heinlein, come in, do you read me?
Captain Lewis
@Dresdan: it's a giant cargo hold of some type
Ens G Heinlein
@Captain : No I would rather die ...if I must working on escape or release 
Cmdr. Mitchell
{#}<COMM> Alien vessel, we cannot leave the area at this time, we're experiencing engine difficulties, we need more time.

Cmdr. Dresden
@::searches the hold area for an exit...
Dr.(Lt.) Landt
::hears no response and assumes that communications are cut off::
Lt. McDowell
{#}XO: Depends on how you configure them. Put an anti-phasic emitter on the thing's hull, and they'll pass right through our shields. As for their shields, it won't matter. Nothing can stand up to that magnitude of an explosion. Even the Borg are stuttered by 'em.
Ens G Heinlein
@Dresden : Dont you see the hatch here ?
Captain Lewis
ACTION: THE SHIP BEGINS MOVING IN CLOSER TO THE GENEVA.......ITS WEAPONS ARE FULLY CHARGED
Ltjg Nim Ber
::here it is, hmm I've seen this wave before, lets check starfleet logs for signature::
Ens G Heinlein
:::points to fine line in bulkhead :::
Cmdr. Mitchell
XO: If I adjust the Inertial Dampeners, and make us stop and go, it'll be a rough ride, but it might be convincing to them.
Cmdr. Dresden
@::looks to where Heinlein was indicating:;I guess I forgot my glasses...:)
Cmdr. Tucker
{#}Mcdowell: How bout a weakness on thier ship, it's made up of a zillion bits, some must be federation.
Captain Lewis
@::begins walking toward what appears to be an inner hatch::
Cmdr. Tucker
Mitchell: Good idea, inform the crew and do it.
Ens G Heinlein
@:::Studies latching mechanism :::
Ltjg Nim Ber
tucker: I have it sir, comp[ensating our sheilds to block the shift with a resonating random interphasic pulse
Captain Lewis
@:::hears the echo of noises coming from inside the ship::
Ltjg Nim Ber
::initializes::
Lt. McDowell
{#}XO: Again, it depends on which technology its core systems are based on. It may be of a zillion pieces, but there has to be one base technology in it.
Ens G Heinlein
@Captain : Are you or Dresden armed ?
Captain Lewis
ACTION: THE SHIP FIRES OVER THE GENEVA  ...PURPOSELY MISSING
Cmdr. Mitchell
{#}ALL: Attention all personnel, prepare for intermittent Inertial Dampening Field disruptions.
Cmdr. Tucker
Ber: Do it.  That should be an adiquite defense from their shifting tech, but not from those shots.
Captain Lewis
@Heinlein:: oh  <wry smile> almost forgot!!:: reaches down into boot::  :::pulls out a phaser::
Cmdr. Mitchell
::backs ship off haltingly::

Lt. McDowell
{#}XO: If that base technology is Fed, we throw a tricobalt device at them, the ship'll be moderately damaged.
Cmdr. Dresden
@Co: Sir, I think we can squeeze through here...it will be tight...I suggest I go and see if I can find a way out to open the doors.
Cmdr. Tucker
{#}Mcdowell: I don't think it is.
Ens G Heinlein
@Captain : Good ...we will still need to use caution but ...:::throws lever::::
Ltjg Nim Ber
Tucker: the side effect of the pulse will infact increase our shielding capabilites almost 50 %, but, will use too much power in 4 hours, we'll have no shields
Lt. McDowell
{#}Mitchell: Hey Scotty, you hitting the gas pedal a little hard there?
Cmdr. Dresden
@::Looks at CO::You always carry a weapon on the bridge sir???
Captain Lewis
@::smiles wryly:: i carry a weapon wherever i go...........
Lt. McDowell
{#}XO: Well, if I can find out which technology it is, I can figure out an appropriate weapon for it.
Ens G Heinlein
@Dresden : Perhaps she servered aboard a Klingon ship before :::Laughs :::
Captain Lewis
ACTION:  THE SHIP FIRES MINIMAL BLASTS AT THE GENEVA ......MINOR DAMAGE
Cmdr. Mitchell
{#}McDowell: Aye, brace yourselves and the ship for a rough ride for a bit
Captain Lewis
@::laughs::
Ens G Heinlein
@:::peers out :::
Cmdr. Tucker
Ber: Can you identify some peices of that ship for Mr. Mcdowell?  He needs species origin in particular.
Cmdr. Mitchell
XO: Shall I return fire, Sir?
Cmdr. Dresden
@CO:  I don't know whether to applaud your boyscoutness or fear your paranoia...
Ens G Heinlein
@Captain : The coast is clear 
Lt. McDowell
::is mildly shaken in his chair:: Now that wasn't Scotty. What the #^%% is going on now?!
Cmdr. Tucker
::shakes with the ship::
Captain Lewis
@Dresdan: it is not paranoia I assure you
Cmdr. Tucker
Mitchell: No, i have a feeling a lot more would come back.
Ltjg Nim Ber
Tucker: the largest piece used it the deuriddium on its hull, very common. I'ts used my the Federation. 80% of their hull is composed of it
Captain Lewis
@Heinlein: then let's move......but i have a feeling.....this is too easy..
Cmdr. Dresden
@CO: If you were paranoid...why should I believe you when you say it isn't??
Cmdr. Mitchell
::slams on the brakes, figuratively speaking that is::
Cmdr. Tucker
::relays ber's message to Mcdowell::

@Captain : So do I ...but it may also be a test of some kind or overconfidence on their part
Captain Lewis
@:: looks around cautiously::
Cmdr. Mitchell
::moves ship again with thrusters::
Captain Lewis
@Heinlein: i agree....
Ltjg Nim Ber
tucker 20% is a deuribbium composite used by the Ferengi. Not as stong as ours
Dr.(Lt.) Landt
::anylizes some samples and hopes that the captured crew is okay::
Cmdr. Tucker
{#}Mcdowell: Rob, can you make us look like we took a lot more in that shot than we actually did, ya know, take a few systems off-line?
Captain Lewis
@Heinlein: you picking up anything??
Cmdr. Mitchell
{#}<COMM> Alien vessel, we still cannot leave the area at this time, we're experiencing more engine difficulties, we need more time.

Ens G Heinlein
@Captain : pardon me :::advances around a cornr and administers the Vulcan nerve pinch :::
Lt. McDowell
::reads console:: {#}Ber: I don't really care about the hull, I need underlying core computer systems. Couldya punch a phaser through and maybe get some damage readings to figure out the race?
Captain Lewis
ACTION: THE CORRIDORS ARE EERILY QUIET AS THEY HEAD DOWN
Captain Lewis
@::looks around::
Cmdr. Tucker
MItchell: And, could you ask them to stop firing at us?  Tell them it is delaying our repairs.
Ens G Heinlein
@:::resumes following :::
Ltjg Nim Ber
<Computer> Ber: anaylsis complete, no new technology being used. composite technology only
Ltjg Nim Ber
::ok::
Cmdr. Dresden
@Heinlein:  You wouldn't happen to be able to point your beam towards the command center on this ship, would you?
Cmdr. Tucker
Mitchell: ANd lower our shields by.. 50%, as if they just went partially off-line.
Lt. McDowell
{#}XO: Uh... ::hits some buttons, while taking some security measures off...Some bangs are heard through the ship:: There went some minor plasma conduits. It'll look pretty on a damage report, but it's harmless to the ship systems.
Captain Lewis
ACTION: THE GIANT SHIP BEGINS MOVING  CLOSER...AS IT NEARS WITHIN 100 METERS IT SUDDENLY VEERS OFF AT HIGH SPEED
Ens G Heinlein
@Dresden : no more than you would .... any way seems as likely as any other at this point 
Ltjg Nim Ber
tucker: computer anaylsis has determined we may be smaller, but, our technology seems to be a bit more superior to theirts
Cmdr. Mitchell
XO: Cmdr. you still want me to send that message???
Ens G Heinlein
@::::Feels shift :::
Cmdr. Tucker
{#}Mcdowell: That's just what we needed, keep up that anyalsis with Ber.
Captain Lewis
@Dresdan: see if we can't find some kind of comm station around here.....make our way toward the bridge or engineering...
Ltjg Nim Ber
Tucker: They are just unsing a type of composite technology making them seem new.
Cmdr. Mitchell
XO: Or would you like me to follow them?
Captain Lewis
@::feels a sudden excelleration::

Dr.(Lt.) Landt
::heals a plasma burn and a twisted ankle::
Cmdr. Dresden
@CO: it is as good a guess as any, sir...
Cmdr. Tucker
Mitchell: We can't put up a chase until we have a bit more of a tactical advantage.
Captain Lewis
@Heinlein: then maybe we should head for it....or maybe find engineering and see about disabling this thing somewhat??
Cmdr. Mitchell
XO: Cmdr. They are heading to the sixth system in the area.
Captain Lewis
ACTION: THE GENEVA SUDDENLY LOSES THE SHIP ON SENSORS.......
Cmdr. Mitchell
XO: I can follow them at a discreet distance, Sir.
Ltjg Nim Ber
Tucker: computer has been reprogrammed to defend against it now. We already did have the capabilities, just the combination hasn't been used before
Ens G Heinlein
@Captain : either way ...but this way should lead us to the Bridge ... I can't guess where the Engineers decks might be :::points :::
Cmdr. Tucker
Mitchell: All right, we'll do it.
Cmdr. Mitchell
XO: They're GONE, Sir, and I mean GONE.
Cmdr. Dresden

Captain Lewis
@Heinlein: the bridge it is then....i don't think we have much time for exploring ....:nervous smile::
Cmdr. Mitchell
XO: Like they simply vanished!

::uh oh, where did it go??::Computer: scan for high density tachyon particles, follow the output trail
Ens G Heinlein
@Captain: Ok want me to take point ?
Captain Lewis
