LtjgNimBer says:
Youdoit: Have you completed the diagnostics yet??

DrltLandt says:
::sends prescription to Heinlein via padd::

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CO: Aye, disengaging docking clamps.

LtjgNimBer says:
<E Youdoit> Ber: yes, sir, everything seems to be operational

CaptainTucker says:
Ber: Lt, If these are Maquis and they're using cloaks, they're probably low quality, work with sensors to see if you could possibly detect them

Lt_jg_G_Heinlein Doctor: Doctor , thank you  this illness still has to let go completely  (#.wav)

Cmdr_Mitchell Geneva to Satrbase 245, ready to depert. (#.wav)

Host Nicke_AGM says:
<starbase> you are clear to depart Geneva

CaptainTucker says:
Mitchell: Quarter Impulse until we clear the station

Cmdr_Mitchell Acknowledged Starbase 245 (#.wav)

LtjgNimBer says:
Cap: It should be no problem, sir, i have bursts of Tachyon embedded in the sensors, should pick up any movement

Lt_jg_G_Heinlein says:
:::Starts reviewing records of crewmembers now assigned to the ship ...replacements :::

CaptainTucker says:
Ber: Good, report even the slightest disturbence.

LtjgNimBer says:
Cap: aye

LtjgNimBer says:
::staring at console::

CaptainTucker says:
{#}McDowell: What is the status of our engines Chief? We;re you able to completely repair them?

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::plots course towards the Romulan Nuetral Zone::

CaptainTucker says:
Mitchell: Warp Five, Engage

LtMcDowell says:
CO: Completely fixed, for once. I swapped out a nacelle from another Intrepid-classer that was in dock.'

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CO: Aye, warp 5

Lt_jg_G_Heinlein says:
:::Makes note of one of the crew past history::::

Cmdr_Mitchell (warp.wav)

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CO: Captain, on course to the RNZ at warp 5.

CaptainTucker says:
McDowell: Good, make sure weapons are at top readiness, we may have a fight on our hands.

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::monitors aux. weapons console at the FCO station::

LtjgNimBer says:
::starts running diagnosatic sims on shields::

LtMcDowell says:
CO: Aye.

Lt_jg_G_Heinlein Doctor: Doctor I am reviewing medical case histories of our new arrivals ...note the recent entries on one SFC McClean (#.wav)

LtjgNimBer Cartography: Is Ensign Youdidit down there ?? (#.wav)

LtjgNimBer <Youdidit> Ber: yes sir, I'm plotting the course sims as you requested (#.wav)

LtMcDowell says:
::sits around on the Bridge, finishing the diagnostics on the new nacelle::

LtjgNimBer Youdidit: Report to Tac, please and do it up here (#.wav)

DrltLandt says:
::looks over files::  I see what you mean

CaptainTucker says:
<><><><>Time passes, the Geneva approacher the Nuetral Zone<><><><>

LtjgNimBer says:
::Youdidit is running sims at TAC::

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CO: Captain, we are arriving at the RNZ

LtMcDowell says:
::gives the cap a PADD with the repair reports. The nacelle was taken from a modified Intrepid-classer that was being built in the drydock::

LtjgNimBer says:
Ensign Youdoit:keep a close eye on the emmiters for any movement

LtMcDowell says:
::more like the ship was part of a new ship class that he helped design at that conference he attended 2 months ago::

DrltLandt says:
::prepares needed meds for one of the romulans, just in case::

Host Nicke_AGM says:
ACTION: AS THE GENEVA NEARS THE RNZ, SCIENCE NOTES SEVERAL STRANGE READINGS

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
Ber: Lt. are you detecting any Romulan vessels on the other side of the NZ?

LtjgNimBer says:
::pulls up forward array sensors and sees......

CaptainTucker says:
McDowell: Thanks Chief, make sure it behaves.

LtjgNimBer says:
::hmmmm::

Lt_jg_G_Heinlein says:
:::visiting the Doctor :::

LtjgNimBer says:
Cmdr: I am getting some movement within the border.....

LtMcDowell says:
CO: This one should be more behaved than the other good one, considering it's one from a modified Intrepider

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CO: Capt. Holding on station at 10000K from the border

LtjgNimBer says:
Cmdr: Planet Alpha7 has two orbiting objects, not natural

CaptainTucker says:
Ber: Can you identify?

CaptainTucker says:
Mitchell: ::nods::

LtjgNimBer says:
::kicks up power:: Cmdr: checking

Lt_jg_G_Heinlein says:
Doctor : we should keep it low key but keep an eye on the Chief

LtjgNimBer says:
Cmdr: two small vessels, wait now three ones just uncloaked

CaptainTucker says:
Ber: Maquis?

LtjgNimBer says:
Cmdr: possible, not romulan

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::notes no unusual readings, just the three small ships...::

Host Nicke_AGM says:
ACTION: THREE SMALL SHIPS APPEAR THEN DISAPEAR ALMOST AS FAST

DrltLandt says:
Hein:  yes...definatly

LtjgNimBer says:
::uh oh, ::

Lt_jg_G_Heinlein says:
Doctor : anything I should know of the drugs loosing efficacy ?

LtjgNimBer says:
Cmdr: they just cloaked, I think they got a sensor lock on us

CaptainTucker says:
Mitchell: Take us to yellow alert and raise shields.

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::looks over to Ber::  Did you see that?

CaptainTucker says:
Ber: Distance?

LtjgNimBer says:
Cap: 1 parsec

LtMcDowell says:
::finds some newfound power, and channels it to the weapons array in a ho-hum fashion::

LtjgNimBer says:
Cmdr: yes, sir, but i gotem

CaptainTucker says:
Ber: Based on thier speed, how long till they reach us?

LtjgNimBer says:
Youdoit: Keep an eye on these tacyhon-thoron readings, thats them.!

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::raises shields and goes to yellow alert::

LtjgNimBer says:
Cap: they're not coming this way, they are staying put, still orbiting

Lt_jg_G_Heinlein says:
:::notes Yellow alert status :::

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CO: Shields at 100% Weapons are nominal

DrltLandt says:
Hein:  if the chief doesn't take them, he may start acting uncontrollably violent...

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CO: We are at yellow alert.

CaptainTucker says:
Mitchell: Good.

Lt_jg_G_Heinlein says:
Doctor : i am more worried about the drug loosing effectiveness over time

CaptainTucker says:
Mitchell: Could we take these three ships in a fight?

DrltLandt says:
Hein:  He needs to take them every morning w/o fail.

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CO: I don't see why not, I believe we have sufficient firepower

LtjgNimBer says:
<youdidit> Cmdr: Sir, they don't have the capabilities by themselves to damage this ship

CaptainTucker says:
Very Well, we have orders to cross the border, Mitchell: Take us there Cmdr.

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CO: And they are small ships, I can track multiple targets with no problem.

Host Nicke_AGM says:
ACTION: A LARGE MASS APPEARS ON SENSORS AND IS MOVING AT A FAST RATE 

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CO: Aye, Sir, entering RNZ now

LtjgNimBer says:
Cap: I'm having trouble reading the other side of the planet

CaptainTucker says:
Ber: Status?

Lt_jg_G_Heinlein says:
Doctor : I had best get towards Aft repair Locker ...these things have a way of turing red

LtjgNimBer says:
Cap; We have something very large there, looks like its coming our way !!

CaptainTucker says:
Red Alert, weapons

CaptainTucker says:
Ber: Identify.

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CO: Large target showing on the monitor, Captain, coming in fast

Cmdr_Mitchell Red Alert (alert.wav)

LtjgNimBer says:
Cap: It's twice the size of this ship, i cannot identify...........

CaptainTucker says:
Mitchell: Hail Them

Lt_jg_G_Heinlein says:
:::leaves sickbay headed to aft Repair Locker :::

Lt_jg_G_Heinlein says:
:::shifts to run :::

Host Nicke_AGM says:
ACTION: AS THE GIANT MASS MOVES IN CLOSER THE SMALLER SHIPS MOVE AND DECLOAK

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
<COMM> Geneva to incoming ship, please respond

LtjgNimBer says:
Cap: the three ships are converging on the larger ship

LtMcDowell says:
whoa boy... ::gets some readings from that thing::

Lt_jg_G_Heinlein says:
:::reaches aft repair station :::

Host Nicke_AGM says:
ACTION: THE SMALLER SHIPS DISAPEAR OFF THE SENSORS

LtjgNimBer says:
<Youdidit> :: prepares weapons and sets up torpedo configurations::

LtjgNimBer says:
Cap: I think those ships just entered the large ship........

LtjgNimBer says:
Cap; They no longer register on sensors

LtMcDowell says:
Ber: A moving spacedock?!

CaptainTucker says:
Ber,Mitchell: Can we identify the large ship? Is it Romulan?

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CO: Confirmed, I think the Lt. is correct.

LtjgNimBer says:
McDowell: In Romulan Space??

CaptainTucker says:
Mitchell: Any response from our hails?

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CO: I can neither confirm or deny the ID of the thing.

LtjgNimBer says:
Cap: The "ship" is unidentifiable

LtMcDowell says:
Ber: Don't ask me. It just sounds logical, though I'm not a Vulcan.

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CO: Captain, now leaving the RNZ and entering Romulan space.

Host Nicke_AGM says:
ACTION: THE LARGE MASS BEGINS MOVING TOWARD THE CENTER OF THE NEUTRAL ZONE....SLOWING

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CO: Large mass now aft of the Geneva.

DrltLandt says:
::makes a note in the med padd about the new triage center in engineering::

CaptainTucker says:
Mitchell: Follow em, not too close.

LtjgNimBer says:
McDowell: Well, i think it was assembled to be different, but, I suspect our technology is close to identical, the hull is dueterium, same as ours

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CO: Coming about, Sir.

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::plots re-entry into the RNZ::

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CO: Rentering the RNZ and approaching the mass, 100000K

CaptainTucker says:
Ber: Can we determine it's course?

Host Nicke_AGM says:
ACTION: SENSORS READ A STRANGE EMMINATION SURROUNDING THE LARGE MASS AS IT CONTINUES TO MOVE TOWARD ROMULAN SPACE

LtjgNimBer says:
Cap: It's meandering around there, keeps changing course <?>

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CO: This mass is moving back towards Romulan space, Captain.

LtMcDowell says:
::stands up, and walks back to the master systems display::

CaptainTucker says:
Mitchell: Take us close and Hail them one last time.

LtjgNimBer says:
Cap: scans indicate equal technology up to but not including gel-pacs

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CO: Aye, moving in to 10000K

LtMcDowell says:
Ber: Well then, let's just hope they don't sneeze on us.

CaptainTucker says:
Mitchell: Any Response?

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
<COMM> Large vessel, please respond, this is the USS Geneva of the United Federation Of Planets

LtjgNimBer says:
McDowell: good point

Host Nicke_AGM says:
ACTION:THE ONLY RESPONSE THE GENEVA RECEIVES IS A LOUD SCREECHING SOUND

LtjgNimBer says:
::owww::

LtMcDowell says:
*ARRRGGG*

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::covers ears quickly::

LtMcDowell says:
wait a minute....

LtMcDowell says:
::runs that thing through a digital filter::

Lt_jg_G_Heinlein says:
:::ears ring ::::

LtjgNimBer says:
Cap: I'm not getting, uh,human readings from that vessel, kind of a biological soup....................

DrltLandt says:
::covers her ears::

LtMcDowell says:
Ber, CO: Hold on. Nim, run that through a terahertz digitalization filter.

Lt_jg_G_Heinlein says:
:::winces in pain :::

DrltLandt says:
::wonders what's going on on the bridge::

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
Ber: Can you make any sense outa that?

LtjgNimBer says:
McDowell: on it, changing the freq and harmonics

LtMcDowell says:
Ber: Thank you.

CaptainTucker says:
Ber: Is it intelligent life?

LtjgNimBer says:
Cap; We're getting a message here, like a biological dna code ???

LtMcDowell says:
::runs that noise through the computer::

CaptainTucker says:
Ber: Can we put it on speakers?

LtjgNimBer says:
Cap: sending it through the unitranslator

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CO: Captain, I think we need the Counselor up here to make sense outa this?

LtMcDowell says:
ah ha...

CaptainTucker says:
Mitchell: Definately.  {#}Heinlein: Lt, please report to the bridge

LtMcDowell says:
::gets something now, still noise, but recognizable::

LtjgNimBer says:
Cap: i'm getting something.................

Lt_jg_G_Heinlein says:
:::Makes sure that everyt=hing is in its proper place :::

>DrltLandt has joined the conversation.

LtjgNimBer says:
Cap: the message is...............humans, humans, keeps repeating it..............

Lt_jg_G_Heinlein Tucker : Aye < Captain (#.wav)

Lt_jg_G_Heinlein says:
:::goes to TL :::

Lt_jg_G_Heinlein says:
:::enters and requests bridge :::

CaptainTucker says:
Ber: Hmm.

LtMcDowell says:
::runs the finished noise through an algorythm that slows down the speed of the message to a recognizable speed::

CaptainTucker says:
Heinlein: Can you make any sense out of this?

LtjgNimBer says:
Cap: thats all it's saying, and in dna code too, thats a new one........................

Lt_jg_G_Heinlein says:
Tucker : let me see

LtMcDowell says:
Heiny: Here Gene, use my seat.

Lt_jg_G_Heinlein says:
:::listens and looks at graphical representation :::

DrltLandt says:
::gets ready for casualties, just in case::

LtMcDowell says:
::offers him anything and everything that the Engineering console has to offer, which isn't much unfortunately::

Lt_jg_G_Heinlein says:
:::manipulates data with Pi :::

LtjgNimBer says:
Heiny: I'm down;oading the code to your station...

Host Nicke_AGM says:
ACTION: THE MASS SURROUNDING THE UNKNOWN VESSEL BEGINS TO PULSATE....THE MESSAGES TO THE GENEVA HAVE CEASED

Lt_jg_G_Heinlein says:
Nim : look at this does that make anymore sense now to you ?

CaptainTucker says:
Mitchell: Pull us back Cmdr.

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CO: I'm still sending out that message, and still no response

LtjgNimBer says:
Heiny: seems to be an entire life form, doesn't it .?

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CO: You got it.... ::pulls ship to 100000K, quickly::

Lt_jg_G_Heinlein says:
Nim : yes it does..plans for building it if we dare

LtjgNimBer says:
Heiny: unless its trying to emulate us to attempt communication

CaptainTucker says:
Ber: Do you think the ship actually a space being?

LtMcDowell says:
Ber: Any way we can tell it to vibrate in subspace, maybe?

LtjgNimBer says:
heiny: there should be three other vessels out there, but this life form, if thats that it is, seems to be hiding them

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
Ber:  Could you identify the type of waves it was emiting?

LtjgNimBer says:
Cmdr: yes sir, kind of like the wave patterns of a quantum singularity, only a much lower frequency

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
Ber: any particular frequency or period?

CaptainTucker says:
Bridge Crew: This may be a First contact situation of an entirely new kind.

CaptainTucker says:
Bridge Crew: Perhaps we can somehow give it a gift of good faith?

LtjgNimBer says:
Cmdr: Well, no, it pulsates every 3 nanoseconds,but that would seem normal for it

LtMcDowell says:
CO: What kind of good faith?

CaptainTucker says:
McDowell: Maybe we could figure out a way to give it food, or something else it might want.

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CO: Whatever it is, it doesn't seem overtly hostile

LtMcDowell says:
CO: Maybe some tuned plasma?

Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CO: Although it makes a helluva lot of noise

CaptainTucker says:
McDowell: We should make sure it wouldn't harm it, but then yes, maybe that would work.
