<<Time lapse - 2.5 days, all Huron Personnel have been recalled to the ship and the Huron has left the Zeta Aquillae System on Priority Orders from Starfleet Command. The Huron is presently enroute to Star System 76432-34 near the trailing edge of the Galactic Arm.....>

<<<Presently, the Huron is approaching the Star System and is fighting the effects of the Q'orphod fleet as well as the molecule in this area of space. Warp Drive has become impossible and Communications are sketchy at best.>>>

<<<<<RESUME Mission>>>>>

OPS-O`Guinn says:
::at station monitoring communications and power as best as possible::

CTO_Ayidee says:
::On Bridge, running checks on Phaser and Scanner Phase shifters.::

FCO_O`Guinn says:
::sitting at console monitoring course::

Host CO_Adamson says:
::on the bridge in her chair.  Red alert flashing around her.::

ACMO_LtJg_Thoren says:
::Standing on the bridge, still brewing about having lost all the Q'orphod crew::

Host AXO_Richmond says:
::sat in the First Officer's chair, it almost feels like home::

CNS_Varesh says:
::sits in his chair with a mild headache:: Self: Relax V, relax.

CEO_Woo says:
::at the bridge, continuing to find ways to overcome what's preventing the warp field::

Host CO_Adamson says:
FCO:  ETA to Q’ophod fleet ?

OPS-O`Guinn says:
<w>FCO: Patrick what do you think we are going to find?

EO_Jones says:
::at the station with the CEO::

Host Jamie_SM says:
<<<Edit ACMO to leaving Q'orphod crew>>

SO_Shiar says:
::on bridge checking sensors and examining problems::

CTO_Ayidee says:
SO: I've got the phase shifter set to randomly rotate the scanner Phase in an attempt to over come the Q'orphod Phase shifting technology.

FCO_O`Guinn says:
CO: ETA 2 minutes ma'am.

Host CO_Adamson says:
::sits back and crosses her legs.::  OPS:  Hail the Kittyhawk.

Host CO_Adamson says:
FCO:  Bring us out of warp.

CTO_Ayidee says:
::Cringes slightly at the mention of the Kittyhawk.::

SO_Shiar says:
CTO: ok :: looks over shifter:: it looks good

CTO_Ayidee says:
SO: I hope it works.  Initial contact with their ships didn't go well.

Host Jamie_SM says:
ACTION: Tactical sensors detect a large mass, moving just outside of the Short Range Sensor Grid.

Host AXO_Richmond says:
COM: KHCO: Captain Lester, this is the Huron.  Is the fleet ready?

SO_Shiar says:
CTO: what the...?

EO_Jones says:
CEO:  Any ideas on how we can get a warp field established?

CNS_Varesh says:
::leans a bit forward to read information on his console, and sits back again::

CTO_Ayidee says:
CO/ XO: We're detecting something just outside of Short Range sensors.

KHCO_Lester says:
@COMM: Huron: Captain Lester here. About time you show up Huron. We've been ready for some time.

Host CO_Adamson says:
CTO: The fleet ?

CTO_Ayidee says:
CO: Hard to tell, but I'd have to say yes.

Host CO_Adamson says:
COM:KittyHawk: We now have the lead.  Anything to report Capt Lester?

CTO_Ayidee says:
Self: Same old Lester.

CEO_Woo says:
EO: Well, in order to do that, we'd have to know what sort of interference we're dealing with... and quite frankly, I haven't encountered something of this magnitude in any textbook at the academy, and for your information, I wasn't exactly known as a slacker back them...

CEO_Woo says:
<something=anything>

Host CO_Adamson says:
FCO:  Pull us into formation.

CTO_Ayidee says:
::Concentrates Scanners on detected mass, trying for more information on them.::

EO_Jones says:
CEO:  I don't know what's causing it  ... and I'm no slacker either ::grins::

KHCO_Lester says:
@COMM:CO: We're all assembled. You may assume position. All normal at the moment Captain.

Host CO_Adamson says:
COM:KittyHawk:  We are taking up position.  We will move out in 2 minutes.

SO_Shiar says:
CO: that mass is moving away from us

ACMO_LtJg_Thoren says:
::Starts pacing back and forth on the bridge, it is almost more like marching::

FCO_O`Guinn says:
::pulls in to formation::

KHCO_Lester says:
@::watches her view screen closely:: COMM: CO: Acknowledged. Lester out.

Host AXO_Richmond says:
::sits in his seat, reading reports::

Host AXO_Richmond says:
CO: The rest of the fleet is standing by, Captain.

OPS-O`Guinn says:
::continues monitoring communications::

CNS_Varesh says:
::leans a bit forward again:: AXO: Todd, are you up to this?

FCO_O`Guinn says:
::monitors course::

Host CO_Adamson says:
AXO:  Lets move out.  Give the order Cmdr.

Host AXO_Richmond says:
CNS: I have no choice.

EO_Jones says:
::notes the mass:: CEO:  Could this be our cause .. ::points to the mass on the screen::

FCO_O`Guinn says:
::pulls up evasive maneuvers placing them on stand by::

Host AXO_Richmond says:
CO: Aye, sir.  FCO: Helm, take us on an intercept course.  Engage.

Host CO_Adamson says:
OPS:  Contact the lead Q’ophod ship.

KHCO_Lester says:
@::watches as the Huron begins to move out:: Self: They better get a move on.

FCO_O`Guinn says:
XO: Intercept course Aye.

CNS_Varesh says:
::nods:: AXO: I understand.

OPS-O`Guinn says:
CO: Aye ma'am.

FCO_O`Guinn says:
::sets intercept course engages::

CEO_Woo says:
EO: Evidently... it's obviously a result of the nature of our mission in this area...

Host CO_Adamson says:
::drums her fingers against the arm of her chair.::

OPS-O`Guinn says:
COM: Q'O Ship: This is the USS Huron come in please.

Host Jamie_SM says:
ACTION: no response

FCO_O`Guinn says:
XO: Intercept course engaged sir.

CTO_Ayidee says:
CO: Based on previous encounters, they tend to attack at the first sign of hails.  We should be ready.

Host Jamie_SM says:
ACTION: the Manticore launches a probe towards the mass

OPS-O`Guinn says:
CO: No response ma'am. I will continue trying.

KHCO_Lester says:
@KHFCO: Prepare to engage engines.

OPS-O`Guinn says:
COM: Q'O Ship: This is the USS Huron come in please.

Host AXO_Richmond says:
CNS: The last thing you need is me in my quarters while we're at red alert, about to encounter the Q’orphod.  My duty is here, on the bridge, by the Captain's side.

CTO_Ayidee says:
CO: Also based on previous encounters, they don't tend to answer.

KHCO_Lester says:
@::her FCO nods::

EO_Jones says:
CEO:  Perhaps if we changed the integrity of the warp field ... ::thinks::

Host AXO_Richmond says:
SO: Let's have a full report the moment you get readings from that probe, Lieutenant.

Host CO_Adamson says:
CTO:  Understood.  OPS: Divert as much power as you can to the shields.

SO_Shiar says:
XO: yessir

CNS_Varesh says:
AXO: I sure wouldn't want to be anywhere else. Just my concern showing through.

OPS-O`Guinn says:
CO: Aye ma'am. ::starts shutting down all nonessential systems still operating::

FCO_O`Guinn says:
::watches course approaching intercept::

CEO_Woo says:
EO: We've been working at this for days... we'll get our answers once we find out more about this 'mass'...

Host AXO_Richmond says:
CNS: Noted.  And appreciated.

OPS-O`Guinn says:
::watches the readings:: CO: Ma'am you have as much as I can give you right now.

Host CO_Adamson says:
FCO:  Time to intercept?

Host CO_Adamson says:
OPS:  Your priority is the shields.

CTO_Ayidee says:
CO/ XO: Data from the sensors matches that encountered by the USS Talwar a few hours ago.

OPS-O`Guinn says:
CO: Aye ma'am....I have everything I can diverted to the shields.

Host CO_Adamson says:
::Nods at Shannon::

CNS_Varesh says:
::smiles and sits back again.:: CO: I'll keep an "ear" out for the Q’orphod.

Host AXO_Richmond says:
CTO: Elaborate.

KHCO_Lester says:
@KHFCO: Take up position behind the Huron.

SO_Shiar says:
CO: I agree with the CTO

FCO_O`Guinn says:
CO: ETA 7 Minutes ma'am.

KHCO_Lester says:
@<KHFCO> Aye Captain, moving into position now.

Host CO_Adamson says:
CNS:  V, can you sense anything?

ACMO_LtJg_Thoren says:
::stops the watch the view screen, thinking she likes being in sickbay at times like this more::

OPS-O`Guinn says:
COM: Q'O Ship: This is the USS Huron come in please.

FCO_O`Guinn says:
CO: Increasing speed ma'am.

EO_Jones says:
CEO:  I know ...

CNS_Varesh says:
::opens an eye:: CO: Not yet... still trying to get a fix on them.

FCO_O`Guinn says:
::touches console increasing impulse::

Host AXO_Richmond says:
CO: I don't like this.  It's a trap.

OPS-O`Guinn says:
CO: Ma'am, still no response from the Q'Orphod ship.

Host CO_Adamson says:
AXO:  Its possible.

ACMO_LtJg_Thoren says:
<1st the = to>

KHCO_Lester says:
@KHFCO: Increase speed to match the Huron's but stay just far enough back to give them room.

Host CO_Adamson says:
OPS:  Keep trying.

OPS-O`Guinn says:
CO: Aye ma'am.

SO_Shiar says:
:: nervously checks LRS for other vessels::

OPS-O`Guinn says:
COM: Q'O Ship: This is the USS Huron come in please.

FCO_O`Guinn says:
::watches intercept point making minor corrections::

EO_Jones says:
::hears the word "trap" and gets nervous::

CTO_Ayidee says:
XO: Detecting 25 vessels, one appears to be a mother ship, the rest small, Scout type vessels.

Host CO_Adamson says:
CTO: Armaments?

KHCO_Lester says:
@<KHFCO>KHCO: Increasing speed Captain. ::taps the console::

CNS_Varesh says:
::pushes his senses to the outermost limit of his range.::

CTO_Ayidee says:
CO: Gravimetric shielding, gravimetric missiles, and ship to ship lasers.

Host AXO_Richmond says:
CO: It's those lasers we need to watch out for.  The can cut through our hull like a hot knife through butter.

CTO_Ayidee says:
CO/ XO: The missiles are the key.  They are capable of disrupting subspace fields, including shields.

Host CO_Adamson says:
All:  Ok, our orders are we are to stop them with non-lethal means.  Target engines and weapons array if need be and bring them to a stop.

OPS-O`Guinn says:
::monitors the power to the shields while continuing to try and raise the ship::

CEO_Woo says:
::works on reinforcing shields before they make contact::

CEO_Woo says:
<oops>

KHCO_Lester says:
@KHCTO: Bring shields to full power, ready all phasers and photon tubes. We're not going to be surprised this time.

FCO_O`Guinn says:
::corrects course setting watching to intercept point::

Host AXO_Richmond says:
CO: Bearing in mind our last encounter with them, it's the lasers that we need to target.  Get them out of the way, and they're a much easier target.

EO_Jones says:
::continues to work on the warp field problem ...::

OPS-O`Guinn says:
CO: Ma'am still nothing. They could be hearing us and not answering though.

Host Jamie_SM says:
ACTION: without warning, a group of Gravimetric missiles flies towards the group, hitting all four ships

KHCO_Lester says:
@::sees the CTO working his console::

Host CO_Adamson says:
COM:KittyHawk.::  Target engines and weapons only.  We are to bring them to a stop.

Host AXO_Richmond says:
::rocks in his seat::  CTO: Return fire!

CEO_Woo says:
::clutches onto console as the ship is hit::

CTO_Ayidee says:
::Tries to fire Defensive Phasers, too late.

OPS-O`Guinn says:
::grabs onto console trying to hang on::

Host CO_Adamson says:
CTO:  Take out their weapons.  ::holds onto her seat.::

Host Jamie_SM says:
ACTION: Targeting sensors have no effect. Manual targeting is online but limited

KHCO_Lester says:
@KHCTO: Return fire, all banks!

CNS_Varesh says:
::grabs the seat and opens his eyes:: Self: That's annoying - I was concentrating.

EO_Jones says:
::grabs onto the console::

SO_Shiar says:
:: clutches consol::

CEO_Woo says:
::finds emergency teams and sends them to repair damaged areas::

FCO_O`Guinn says:
::initiates evasive maneuvers::

KHCO_Lester says:
@<KHCTO> Aye ma'am. Firing all banks.

CTO_Ayidee says:
XO: Aye sir.  ::Fires at Mother ship, trying to hit weapons array.::

FCO_O`Guinn says:
CO: Initiating evasive maneuvers ma'am.

SO_Shiar says:
::checks on shields::

ACMO_LtJg_Thoren says:
::stumbles, trying to grab onto a console::

Host CO_Adamson says:
OPS:  Contact the Leviathan and Manticore.  Have them flank from the other side.

OPS-O`Guinn says:
CO: Aye ma'am.

Host AXO_Richmond says:
CO: Captain, I don't think we're going to have the time to just target their weapons.  We need to immobilize them, no matter how!

OPS-O`Guinn says:
COM: Leviathan and Manticore: Take up flanking positions from the other side.

Host Jamie_SM says:
ACTION: Several Q'orphod ships break formation and head right for the Federation Task Force

FCO_O`Guinn says:
CO: Permission for full impulse ma'am?

CNS_Varesh says:
CO: I agree... ::watches as the ships head right for them::

Host CO_Adamson says:
XO:  Make it so.  Just don't destroy the ships  ::sighs::  Well looks like they are not going to give me a choice.  CTO:  Fire at will.

ACMO_LtJg_Thoren says:
::Finally stands back up, hoping Prosh is handling things down in sickbay::

OPS-O`Guinn says:
::bites on my lip nervously...fearing what is going to happen...diverts as much power as possible to the shields from other sources::

CTO_Ayidee says:
CO: Difficult getting a lock, targeting sensors are unable to penetrate their shields.  Continuing to try and compensate.

KHCO_Lester says:
@KHFCO: Evasive maneuvers, and get me the Huron on the comm.

Host Jamie_SM says:
ACVTION: another round of missiles flanks the Huron. Shields at Nil

Host AXO_Richmond says:
::sees the ships break formation::  CO: Suggestion.  If we launch our armed shuttles, we might distract them enough to take out the larger ships.

OPS-O`Guinn says:
CO: Ma'am we have lost shields.

KHCO_Lester says:
@<KHFCO> Aye ma'am, channel open.

SO_Shiar says:
:: keeps an eye on shields and wishes this was a War Bird::

OPS-O`Guinn says:
::works on diverting power to get the shields back up::

Host CO_Adamson says:
XO:  No, we lost shuttles during our last encounter.  We don't have any to spare.

CTO_Ayidee says:
SO: See if you can determine the Phase variance of the incoming missiles.  Might help us to penetrate their shields.

ACMO_LtJg_Thoren says:
::falls again and tries getting back up::

Host CO_Adamson says:
OPS:  Divert from wherever, but get those shields up.

OPS-O`Guinn says:
CO: I am trying ma'am.

Host Jamie_SM says:
ACTION: a Q'orphod Ship dissects into the Huron's Hull, Lacerating it and decompressing several decks

KHCO_Lester says:
@COMM:HURON: Huron: What the devil is going on over there?

FCO_O`Guinn says:
::rolls the Huron inverted::

Host Jamie_SM says:

SO_Shiar says:
CTO: will do  ::checks variance of missiles::

Host Jamie_SM says:
ACTION: the Kitty Hawk's DEM Pylon is severed

Host CO_Adamson says:
COM:KittyHawk:  I'm getting sliced and diced Capt.  Some help would greatly be appreciated.  ::mutters::

CTO_Ayidee says:
::Targets nearest vessel, manually targeting center of mass.::

OPS-O`Guinn says:
::shuts down power where it can be shut down and redirects it to the shields::

Host Jamie_SM says:
ACTION: The Huron's phasers have little effect

FCO_O`Guinn says:
::rolls back up right increasing to full impulse::

OPS-O`Guinn says:
::pulls power from the decompressed decks and diverts it to the shields::

Host CO_Adamson says:
CTO:  Load torpedoes

FCO_O`Guinn says:
CO: Closing range on the enemy fleet ma'am.

CTO_Ayidee says:
CO: Loaded, ma'am.  Also trying to resume random Phase shifts on the Phasers to overcome.

Host CO_Adamson says:
CTO:  Fire torpedoes.

ACMO_LtJg_Thoren says:
<MO_Prosh> ::helps an engineer get his buddy to a biobed::

OPS-O`Guinn says:
::works on bypass controls trying to get the power back to the shields::

Host AXO_Richmond says:
CO: We need to get the remaining shuttles out there, Captain!

CTO_Ayidee says:
::Fires wide dispersion of torpedoes, going for blast area rather than exact targeting::

KHCO_Lester says:
@COMM:CO: We're getting batted around over here. We'll try and lay down a spread of photons on your port side.

Host Jamie_SM says:
ACTION: the Q'orphod Fleet flanks the Huron, several Lasers reach out for the ship

Host AXO_Richmond says:
CMO: Doctor, get down to sickbay, there's going to be wounded.

Host CO_Adamson says:
XO:  The shuttles are going to have the same effect our ships are, but take two out.

ACMO_LtJg_Thoren says:
AXO: Yes, sir. ::gets in the tl:: Sickbay

FCO_O`Guinn says:
::rolls the Huron several times to avoid lasers::

OPS-O`Guinn says:
::works frantically trying to get power back to the shields::

Host CO_Adamson says:
COM:KittyHawk:  We would greatly appreciate it.  Our shields are down.  Its going to take precious minutes to get them back up.

Host AXO_Richmond says:
CO: Aye, sir.  FCO/SO: O'Guinn, Shiar, with me.

Host AXO_Richmond says:
::runs into the turbolift::

CNS_Varesh says:
CO: Need me at the helm?

CTO_Ayidee says:
::Launches next volley set to magnetic targeting.::

SO_Shiar says:
XO: Aye sir

SO_Shiar says:
::follows XO::

Host Jamie_SM says:
ACTION: a light beam can be seen punching through Main Engineering, barely missing the Warp Core, but destructing everything in it's path

KHCO_Lester says:
@::has her CTO fire a full spread of torpedoes to the Huron's port side, trying to deflect the incoming fire::

ACMO_LtJg_Thoren says:
::steps off the Tl to see several-wounded heading for sickbay already::

Host AXO_Richmond says:
CO: Tell the rest of the fleet to get their shuttles out, too.

Host AXO_Richmond says:
<edit FCO to CNS>

CNS_Varesh says:
<del CNS previous statement>

OPS-O`Guinn says:
::works frantically trying to get power back to the shields::

Host Jamie_SM says:
ACTION: Casualty counts begin coming to the Bridge. 65 Dead, 135 Wounded

CNS_Varesh says:
AXO: Aye. ::enters TL with him::

Host AXO_Richmond says:
CNS/SO: You both know your duties - let's get these ships distracted.

CEO_Woo says:
::crashes onto the floor; climbs back onto seat:: CO: Something's punched a hole right through the ship, ma'am...

ACMO_LtJg_Thoren says:
::walks in and scan's the wounded, then starts shouting orders doing triage::

Host AXO_Richmond says:
::exits the turbolift and runs into the shuttle bay::

SO_Shiar says:
XO: ok

Host CO_Adamson says:
CEO: Damage report!

KHCO_Lester says:
@::brings the Kittyhawk around to the Huron's starboard and sets up for another spread::

CTO_Ayidee says:
CO: They appear to want our Warp Core.  Filthy scavengers....

EO_Jones says:
CEO:  I can't contact engineering ...

Host CO_Adamson says:
CTO:  I'll blow the ship before they can have the warp core.

SO_Shiar says:
:: runs to shuttle bay and finds a shuttle::

Host Jamie_SM says:
ACTION: the Manticore is destroyed

ACMO_LtJg_Thoren says:
::goes over to an engineer whose right leg is nearly severed off from some shrapnel::

OPS-O`Guinn1 says:
::starts muttering under my breath about the blasted bypasses to the shields::

CNS_Varesh says:
AXO: Aye. ::runs to one of the remaining shuttles and does quick preflight:: *Bridge*: Shuttle ready for launch.

Host AXO_Richmond says:
::enters a shuttle and starts up::

Host CO_Adamson says:
COM:KittyHawk:  Capt, we need help, can you take some of our crew ?

Host CO_Adamson says:
FCO:  Plot a collision course just in case.

Host AXO_Richmond says:
*Bridge* Shuttle ready for launch.

KHCO_Lester says:
@COMM: HURON: Laying down another spread to your starboard. Hang on.

FCO_O`Guinn says:
CO: Collision course aye.

Host CO_Adamson says:

Host AXO_Richmond says:
%::enters deep space and tries to distract some of the ships away, firing phasers the whole time::

KHCO_Lester says:
@::executes the second spread::

CEO_Woo says:
CO: Needless to say, the hull has suffered a breach... some beam of energy seems to have penetrated the hull, ravaging everything in its path, brushing against Main Engineering... there is literally a hole right through. The warp core is still intact, however.

CNS_Varesh says:
%::pulls out all the stops and fires at the alien ships::

Host AXO_Richmond says:
%COM CNS/SO: Hang formation, just take a fighter and get it out of the way of the Huron.  Let's give her some time to get to that mother ship!

Host CO_Adamson says:
CEO:  Have you diverted engineering to the bridge especially with shields out.

CTO_Ayidee says:
*Sec*: Get a team down to Main Engineering.  As soon as Damage Control declares it safe, set up a guard detail.

Host Jamie_SM says:
ACTION: damage reports coming in do not look promising, some Kitty Hawk torps hit Q'orphod ships, eventually destroying few

CNS_Varesh says:

Host Jamie_SM says:
ACTION: shuttle fire has little effect, but does get their attention

Host CO_Adamson says:
OPS:  Start shutting down the decks affected.

Host AXO_Richmond says:
%COM CNS/SO: Make sure you don't get a bogey on your tail!

OPS-O`Guinn says:
CO: Already done ma'am.

ACMO_LtJg_Thoren says:
Nurse: Get over here and give her 55 cc's off Tellerate

KHCO_Lester says:
@KHCTO: Let's see if we can extend our shields around the Huron until she can get hers back up.

CEO_Woo says:
CO: Absolutely, ma'am, I have control over the engineering systems right here... ::continues to try to get a response from Main Engineering::

OPS-O`Guinn says:
::continues trying and feeling like I am failing completely::

Host AXO_Richmond says:
%COM SO: Looks like we might be distracting one or two of them.  It could be enough.  Let's hope the other ship's shuttles can do the same.

SO_Shiar says:

::monitors shuttle course increasing speed to full impulse::

Host Jamie_SM says:
ACTION: the Kitty Hawk is hit, lasers lance intro the hull and cut a large chunk out of the saucer

ACMO_LtJg_Thoren says:
<MO_Prosh> Thoren: A little.

Host AXO_Richmond says:
%COM: CO: Captain from Richmond, you want us to follow?

SO_Shiar says:
%:: fires at a fighter::

FCO_O`Guinn says:
::monitors shuttle course::

Host CO_Adamson says:
OPS:  Get as many of the Kittyhawk crew as you can.

OPS-O`Guinn says:
CO: Aye ma'am.

Host AXO_Richmond says:
%feels himself being beamed back onto the bridge with Varesh and Shiar::

FCO_O`Guinn says:
CO: Shuttle ETA 1 minute ma'am.

KHCO_Lester says:
@<KHCTO>CO: Captain, we've taken a hit to the saucer section. Severe damage reported!

OPS-O`Guinn says:
::locks onto the Kittyhawk crew and starts beaming them to the cargo bay::

ACMO_LtJg_Thoren says:
::quietly swears in  Klingon:: Prosh: Then give me what we have left. This  one's already lost nearly enough to die.

CNS_Varesh says:
%::feels the transporter take hold::

Host Jamie_SM says:
ACTION: the Leviathan's Warp and Impulse drives have been disabled

Host AXO_Richmond says:
CO: Looks like it worked, sir  ::sits back in his seat, despite being slightly char grilled::

OPS-O`Guinn says:
*CMO*: I am beaming the Kittyhawk crew to the cargo bay. Please get a team down there.

Host CO_Adamson says:
*ACMO*:  Mira, prepare for casualties from the Kittyhawk.

Host CO_Adamson says:
XO:  Lets hope those shuttles do some damage.

ACMO_LtJg_Thoren says:
<MO_Prosh> ::gives it to her:: Thoren: Should I go ma'am?

Host AXO_Richmond says:
*All hands* All medical trained personnel, report to Sickbay for triage duty.

SO_Shiar says:
%:: beams back::

Host AXO_Richmond says:
CO: Let's hope.

ACMO_LtJg_Thoren says:
::Nods her head:: Prosh: Quickly.

CNS_Varesh says:
::goes to his seat:: AXO: Good flying. Need me in sickbay?

FCO_O`Guinn says:
::taps the remote one more time aiming the shuttles at the bridge of the lead ship::

SO_Shiar says:
:: sits back at console:: SELF: that was fun

Host AXO_Richmond says:
CNS: Please.  You're best served to help them now.  And good flying, Counselor.

Host AXO_Richmond says:
::grins::

ACMO_LtJg_Thoren says:
<MO_Prosh> ::grabs up a med kit and heads for the cargo bay::

CNS_Varesh says:
::grins and gives Todd a wink:: CO: I'll be in sickbay if you need me. ::gets up::

Host CO_Adamson says:
FCO:  Status of the shuttles ?

Host AXO_Richmond says:
SO: Excellent work, Lieutenant.  Let's see if we can do as good a job of holding us together.

Host Jamie_SM says:
ACTION: the Shuttles hit into the lead ship, damaging it, but not disabling it

Host CO_Adamson says:
CNS:  Let me know if you need more help.

SO_Shiar says:
XO: thanks, I’ll see what I can do

FCO_O`Guinn says:
CO: All shuttles hit.... they do have damage.

CTO_Ayidee says:
::::Fires full spread of torpedoes to strike where the shuttles did.::

ACMO_LtJg_Thoren says:
::starts swearing louder as the Vulcan patient didn't get enough blood soon enough::

Host CO_Adamson says:
CTO:  Concentrate on that section!

SO_Shiar says:
:: checks sensors::

CNS_Varesh says:
CO: Aye. ::exits the bridge, heading for sickbay:: *CMO*: Mira, do you need me in sickbay or in the cargo bay with the Kittyhawk crew?

OPS-O`Guinn says:
::watches the view screen::

Host Jamie_SM says:
ACTION: the photon torps hit, but do little damage

FCO_O`Guinn says:
::decreases speed to give the CTO a more stable platform::

CTO_Ayidee says:
CO: On it, have the 'Hawk do the same.  Take out the main ship, hopefully they'll depart.

OPS-O`Guinn says:
::monitors communications and continues diverting power where needed::

ACMO_LtJg_Thoren says:
::Moves onto another patient:: *CNS* Cargo bay, Ensign Prosh could use the help...and supervision.

CNS_Varesh says:
*ACMO*: Understood. TL: Cargo bay 1.

Host AXO_Richmond says:
::glances at Chloe::  CO: Looks like the only chance we have is our ramming her ourselves.

KHCO_Lester says:
@::coughs:: COMM: HURON: We've taken damage..::coughs again:: injured. Can you assist?

Host CO_Adamson says:
XO:  We are on course for that.  Its already been ordered.  ::Sighs::  Get all non essential personnel to the Life pods.

SO_Shiar says:
CO: could we use our tractor beam to ram the ship with something else? maybe a fighter?

CEO_Woo says:
::looks up as he overhears the decision::

ACMO_LtJg_Thoren says:
::Shakes her head, she can't do anything for the Lt:: Nurse: Put her in stasis for now. I'll operate on her later

FCO_O`Guinn says:
CO: Increasing speed ma'am.

Host AXO_Richmond says:
CO: Wait a minute.  CTO: Status of the Kittyhawk, is she worse off than us?

Host CO_Adamson says:
COM:KittyHawk.: We can.  Capt, Can you program your ship to ram the lead ship, we will begin beaming the rest of your crew over.

CNS_Varesh says:
::exits into the corridor outside CB1 and goes inside. Prosh: I need an update.

FCO_O`Guinn says:
::taps console increasing to full impulse::

CTO_Ayidee says:
XO: No sir, they are in better shape than we are.

KHCO_Lester says:
@::maneuvers the Kittyhawk towards the Leviathan::

Host Jamie_SM says:
<<EDIT CO remark  quickie pause>>

Host AXO_Richmond says:
CTO: What about the Leviathan?  Can we fly her remotely?

ACMO_LtJg_Thoren says:
<MO_Prosh> ::looks at the counselor, points at the patients near the wall:: CNS: those are the one's we can fix and send off to duty if need be.

KHCO_Lester says:
@ COMM: HURON: We're...::coughs:: going to aid the Leviathan..need assistance for the wounded. Do you copy Huron?

Host CO_Adamson says:
COM:KittyHawk:  We copy.   Pull back once you get to the Leviathan.

ACMO_LtJg_Thoren says:
::goes onto another patient  and starts to work::

KHCO_Lester says:
@KHFCO: Take us along side the Leviathan and hold position.

CNS_Varesh says:
::nods:: Prosh: Ok, get some of the personnel on that, and we'll tackle the ones who needs a bit more care.

ACMO_LtJg_Thoren says:
<MO_Prosh> CNS: Okay ::sort of smiles:: Nurse Brown: Take Davis and start on them.

Host Jamie_SM says:
ACTION: two Q'orphod ships come into range, severing the Huron into two sections, divided above and below deck 10

KHCO_Lester says:
@COMM:HURON: Understood Huron. ETA is two minutes. ::gags on smoke and can barely get a breath::

Host CO_Adamson says:
::jaw tight and a large frown on her face.::  FCO:  Pull us back..... while doing so can we ignite some of our ion trial, maybe we can take out some of the scout ships.

Host AXO_Richmond says:
::holds on as the beam cuts through the entire ship::

FCO_O`Guinn says:
CO: Aye ma'am.

OPS-O`Guinn says:
::grabs onto the console and looks over at Patrick:: FCO: This is it isn't it?

FCO_O`Guinn says:
::turns the Huron falling back::

CNS_Varesh says:
::falls down as the ship is dismembered::

Host CO_Adamson says:
CTO:  Ignite the ion trail now!

CEO_Woo says:
::jaw drops as the ship is cut in two, obviously rocking the ship severely:: CO: Um... we've just lost everything below deck 10...

SO_Shiar says:
:: flies out of seat::

Host AXO_Richmond says:
CEO: What?  ::aghast::

ACMO_LtJg_Thoren says:
::Starts swearing again as the ship rocks::

KHCO_Lester says:
@::watches as they near the Leviathan and gasps at the damage::

Host CO_Adamson says:
CEO:  When the scout ships go over it, blow her, maybe it will take some of it.

CTO_Ayidee says:
::Ignites Ion trail.::

Host Jamie_SM says:
ACTION: the Huron is now adrift and both sections are floating adrift, the Q'orphod have lost interest and have moved on

SO_Shiar says:
:: swears violently in Romulan::

Host Jamie_SM says:
ACTION: the Ion trail ignites the two Q'orphod ships

CNS_Varesh says:
*Bridge*: Captain, what just happened?

Host AXO_Richmond says:
SO: Lieutenant, watch your mouth!

SO_Shiar says:
XO: sorry

CTO_Ayidee says:
Self: First time I've been out bit by a fish.....

Host CO_Adamson says:
CNS:  V, beam as many as your can back to the main part of the ship.  Including yourself.  We have been split in two.

CTO_Ayidee says:
CO: The fleet is departing, apparently we don't interest them any more.

SO_Shiar says:
:: gets up and returns to seat::

Host AXO_Richmond says:
CTO: Of course we don't - there's not enough of us left.

FCO_O`Guinn1 says:
OPS: I hope not lass.

CNS_Varesh says:
::moment's silence:: *CO*: Aye. I'll see if I have transporter control in here... cargo transporters only.

KHCO_Lester says:
@::sees the Huron cut in two and covers her face for a moment::

Host CO_Adamson says:
CNS:  Use whatever it takes.  Life pods if need be.

ACMO_LtJg_Thoren says:
<MO_Prosh> ::works on a Lt.jg. and looks up hearing the captain::

CNS_Varesh says:
::goes to the wall PADD and starts tapping:: *CO: Understood. Prosh, get the walking wounded and walking dead to the life pods.

CTO_Ayidee says:
CO: If we can get out of the subspace interference, we can use the tractor beam to pull ourselves together.  At least make us salvageable.

Host CO_Adamson says:
CTO:  We may have to wait for the fleet to move on to do that.

KHCO_Lester says:
@COMM:HURON: We're with the Leviathan. Looks like you can't help now.

ACMO_LtJg_Thoren says:
<MO_Prosh> ::Nods his head:: CNS: Alright. ::gives order while helping his patient up to the life pods::

Host CO_Adamson says:
COM:KittyHawk:  Nope we are out.  Hopefully someone up ahead can stop them.

CNS_Varesh says:
*CO*: Launching life pods as they enter, still trying to get transporter control.

KHCO_Lester says:
@COMM:HURON: We can transport your crew to the Kittyhawk. Standing by.

Host CO_Adamson says:
COM:KittyHawk:  We have some life pods from our severed half.  I would greatly appreciate if you can pick them up.

ACMO_LtJg_Thoren says:
::yells at a nurse who is screaming hysterically about something::

SO_Shiar says:
:: thinks back to the disabled Q’Orphod ships trying to figure out what was wrong with them::

KHCO_Lester says:
@COMM:HURON: Acknowledged. Kittyhawk out.

ACMO_LtJg_Thoren says:
<MO_Prosh> ::goes to help some more patients into life pods::

Host Jamie_SM says:
<<<<<END Mission>>>>>

AFTERMATH: 18 Q'orphod ships manage to get past the Huron task force. the Huron and Leviathan have suffered catastrophic damage but remain sustainable. the Kitty Hawk being the survivor of the 3, takes on al crew to Starbase 275 while Ships from Starfleet Engineering move to the Leviathan and Huron to access the damage.  will the Huron be salvaged?
