CNS-Cmdr-McIntyre says:
@::lining up the people for their vacinations::
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
::At her station, going over the sensor logs from the shuttle crash.::
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
:: sits on the edge of the transporter pad waiting for Icky to show ::
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
::sits in The Big Chair, going over what happened in his head::
XO_Q`tor says:
CO:  Sir the CTO and CEO are enroute to the planet surface to recover as much of the shuttle wreckage as possible.  I have ordered a preliminary report to be delivered to me in 12 hours.
CNS-Cmdr-McIntyre says:
@*OPS*:  Brandy, we need more staff down here to administer the vaccine, think you can round up some of the civilians on the Huron?
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Arrives at TR1.::  CEO: Sorry, trying to figure out who does what and where each what gets done.  Do you need anything specific on the surface?
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
*CNS*:  Already on it Randi.  I'm going to do an immediate beam-down to the transport coordinates.  I'm rounding up doctors from sickbay as we speak.
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
::nods:: XO: Thank you, Commander. Any ideas from your angle as to what caused it?
TO_Tyler says:
::shows up in the TR:: CTO: Ensign Tyler, reporting for duty, Sir! ::salutes and stands rigidly at attention::
XO_Q`tor says:
CO: No sir, we were caught as off guard by it as I'm sure you were.
CNS-Cmdr-McIntyre says:
@*OPS*:  Thanks Brandy... every hand we can get down here will be appreciated.  Randi out.
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
TO: Very good, our initial job is to make sure no parts become souvenirs.  Especially bad in that regard would be the Phaser banks, of course.
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
:: stands :: CTO: I just need you to secure the area, then we can work on the puzzle once we get the debris back to the Huron.
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
*Sickbay*:  Doctor Jones, do you have that group of doctors ready for beam down to the planet's surface?  We need to get underway.
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
::sighs:: CO: That's an understatement. It shouldn't have happened.. ::shakes his head:: I'd like to think that Roz doesn't normally keep his shuttles in such poor condition.
TO_Tyler says:
::nods:: CTO: Aye aye, Sir! ::still holding his salute and still standing at attention::
XO_Q`tor says:
CO:  Of course you will understand if in the future I am less likely to... shall we say... be as casual about you leaving the ship.
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CEO: You got it, absolutely no one gets in without a pass from their teacher.  ::Grins, grabs a Phaser and field tool kit.::
Doctor Jones says:
*OPS*:  The medical team is on their way now to transporter room 1.  They should be ready for immediate transport.
 
ACTION:  The blue boy must have ESP... Children are already finding pieces of the shuttle.

CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
TO: As you were, get your gear together and let's head down.
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
:: picks up her tool kit and other gear and steps onto the pad :: CTO/TO: Coming gentlemen?
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
::smiles sheepishly:: XO: Quite understanding, Q'tor. You may have a difficult time convincing me to get behind the wheel of a shuttle again! ::grins::
TO_Tyler says:
::grabs his phaser rifle and tricorder and steps up onto the PADD::
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CEO: Ready and waiting, my lady.  ::Stands on the pad.::
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
::The medical team arrive in Transporter Room 1, ready for beam-down.::
XO_Q`tor says:
CO:  And in my short time aboard the Huron sir, I have realized that Commander Roznine is very particular about the care and maintenance of the shuttles on board.  I find it difficult to believe that he is responsible for this, either indirectly or otherwise.

ACTION:  The AT have assembled on the transporter pad, ready to send back the pieces of the shuttle they find.

CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
*OPS*: Away team ready for transport.
EO_Running_Horse says:
::in engineering keeping a close eye on everything::
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
XO: As do I; we've.. ::frowns:: We've worked together before. He's an amazing pilot.
TO_Tyler says:
::picks up his PADD and steps on the pad::
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
*CEO*:  Aye, Commander.
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
@:: checks her tricorder for the direction :: CTO: This way Icky, it's not far.
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@CEO: Good.
TO/ all TOs: You know the drill, spread out, and no one gets close until the area's been fully cleared of debris.
 
ACTION:  The children scatter as the AT approach some of the debris from the shuttle.

TO_Tyler says:
CTO: Aye, sir! ::salutes and fans out his team, forming a rough circle around the debris::
Doctore Karin says:
@::Assembles on the planet's surface with the AT, and a group of doctors.::  ALL:  Who is in charge here?  We have some vaccine to deliver.
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
@:: moves towards the debris, her tricorder scanning as she walks ::
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@CEO: That's not what I hoped to see.  Those kids are playing dangerous, any one of those parts is likely around 500K, orbital entry only happened what, half an hour ago?
CNS-Cmdr-McIntyre says:
@Doctor Karin:  I am Counselor McIntyre.  Please take over the distribution here, while I get another site set up.
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
@CTO: I hope your men can hold those children back. These parts are dangerous toys.
 
ACTION:  Six blips appear on OPS's console.

CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
@ :: stops at a small piece of metal and bends down to examine it ::
Doctor Karin says:
@CNS:  It's good to meet you, counselor.  I only wished it were under better circumstances.  I have my team of doctors here.  They will take over.  Thank you.
TO_Tyler says:
::yells to the kids:: Kids:  Okay, off you go!  These are really hot, and you could get hurt!
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@::Spreads out, ensuring that the debris field is secure.::  *Angeltra*: I need a sensor sweep of the debris field, there were a few young Durravan's in the area, I want to make sure that nothing disappeared.  Plus a 'treasure map' wouldn't hurt.
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
CO:  Captain, sensors are picking up ..  ::hesitates.::  ships headed our way?
CNS-Cmdr-McIntyre says:
@Doctor Karin:  As you can see, this is a big job.  Can you send a few of your nurses with me to set up the next location?
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
@ :: notes the burn marks and pattern of disbursement ::
XO_Q`tor says:
OPS: Can you identify them?
Angeltra says:
*CTO*: Aye sir, scanning now and...uh, hold on, incoming vessels, hold tight.
Doctor Karin says:
@::Points to a group of nurses administering some medicines.::  Nurses:  You, you, and you, go with Counselor McIntyre, please.  CNS:  They're all yours, Ma'am.
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
XO:  Running long range sensors, Sir.
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@*Angetra*: Did you say incoming vessels?  So much for a simple relief job.
CNS-Cmdr-McIntyre says:
@Doctor Karin:  Thank you, and get any available person on the Huron down here.  Some of these people are critical.  I need you to set up a triage center.
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
CTO: Boy this is a really big mess isn't it? :: shakes her head ::
XO_Q`tor says:
OPS: Signal yellow alert until we can find out who they are.
Doctor Karin says:
@::Does as the Counselor asks, and begins to set up a triage center.::
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@CEO: Yeah, but considering what happened, at least it's just a mess of parts.
TO_Tyler says:
@::hears the news about incoming:: CTO: Sir, the perimeter is relatively secured... do you want me to beam up and take tactical?
 
ACTION:  People with very high fevers begin to line up for the doctors.

OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
XO:  Aye, Sir.  ::Takes the ship to yellow alert.::  They are too far away, Sir.  Sensors can not detect their signature yet.
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@TO: Check with OPS, if the unidentified vessels are far enough to allow beam up, do it.  If not, those onboard will have to handle.
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
Self: Tabernac. OPS/XO: Three guesses.
TO_Tyler says:
@::nods to the CTO:: CTO: Aye sir. ::taps his combadge:: *OPS*: Do we have enough time to beam me up?  If so, I will take Tactical.
Doctor Karin says:
@::Begins to deliver the analgesics as well as the vaccines to the group lined up.::
XO_Q`tor says:
CO:  Our pirate guests from Cestus perhaps?
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
@CTO: Let's begin the transport. I suggest the engine section first. I don't want any of the locals stealing parts. I'm going to examine the tail section if I can find it.
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
XO:  Sir, TO Tyler has requested beam-up.  I am beaming him up to take tactical.
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@CEO: If I may, engine and Phaser banks.  Locals having a Type 6 Phaser bank would be a bad idea as well.
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
XO: I'd be a little surprised if it wasn't. OPS: Are these vessels within hailing range?
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
@ :: nods :: CTO: Make it so.......please. :: grins ::
XO_Q`tor says:
OPS:  Very well
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
*Transporter Room*:  Drop shields and beam TO Tyler up, and then raise them.
TO_Tyler says:
@::waits patiently for a reply::
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
@ :: heads off towards what looks like the tail assembly ::
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
CO:  They are holding their positions, Sir.  They are not within hailing range.
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@CEO: You got it, only question is I got a report of incoming, unidentified ships.  Not sure if we'll be clear to beam up the parts quite yet.
XO_Q`tor says:
CO:  Do you think they are trying to draw us away from the planet?
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
*TO*:  Ens. Tyler, you are being beamed to transporter room 1.  Stand by for energize.
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
XO: It's a possibility... I don't want to play to it, though.
TO_Tyler says:
@*OPS*: Acknowledged, Huron.. standing by.
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@*XO*: Sir, should we continue to beam parts to the ship?  Have the vessels been identified as friend or foe?
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
@ :: stops and turns :: CTO: Check with Angeltra on that Icky.

ACTION:  The TO is beamed to the Huron.
 
TO_Tyler says:
::materializes in the Transporter Room, and quickly heads towards the bridge::
XO_Q`tor says:
*CTO*:  Prepare the debris for transport.  I will notify you when we are ready for beam up.
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@*XO*: Aye Sir, will do.
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
OPS: Ensign Daniels, prepare a Class VI probe for launch. Program it to send a repeating message on all frequencies, that Durrava IV is currently under medical quarantine, not to approach and that we'll inform when it's safe. Fire it in their general direction.
EO_Running_Horse says:
*CO*: Sir anything  you need.Just Holler.
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
@ :: looks over another charred piece :: Self: Interesting. I thought this had been repaired.
XO_Q`tor says:
CO:  Do we lower shields so that we can transport the debris?
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
XO: I'd rather not, but if they're out of communications range, then they're out of weapons range.
TO_Tyler says:
::enters the TL:: TL: Deck 1, Main Bridge.
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@*Angeltra*: Ensign Tyler is coming to take the Tactical consol to deal with the potential threats.  When he's there, I need the exact location of the thrust and maneuvering components and the ship's weapons.  As soon as we are clear to resume beaming, I want them to the ship ASAP.
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Enters the command into her console to send the appropriate repeated message on all frequencies.::  CO:  Launching probe sir.  ::Hits the button on her console to send the probe in the direction of the unknown vessels.::
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
::listens to the comm, wondering who that voice was::
XO_Q`tor says:
CO: And Ensign Daniels could have shields raised at the first sign of trouble.
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
XO: Exactly. OPS: Ensign, lower shields.
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
@ :: walks back to the CTO's location :: CTO: Can the Huron transport now?
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@CEO: As soon as the shields can be lowered, they'll start beaming up the parts.  Phaser banks are there and, um, ah, there's the other one.  We're ready when they are.
TO_Tyler says:
::steps out onto the bridge and to the Tactical station, quickly surveying ship's status::
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Lowers the shields.::
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
@CTO: I hope it's soon. I want to check something when we get back.
XO_Q`tor says:
*CTO*: Commander, we are lowering shields.  Standby for debris transport.
 
ACTION:  As the Huron lowers her shields to take on debris, the 6 blips have ignored the message and move in closer then stop.

Doctor Karin says:
@::Opens another box of vaccine to continue administering the meds.::
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
CO:  Captain, we've got company.  ::Checking sensors now.::
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@*XO*: Aye sir, excellent.  What are our new dance partners doing?
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
OPS: Let me know when they're approaching weapons range.
CNS-Cmdr-McIntyre says:
@Nurses:  Ladies and gentlemen, please begin the distribution, and if necessary we can set up beds here as well.
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
CO:  Aye.
XO_Q`tor says:
TO: Standby on all weapons
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@CEO: Sounds like they're ready, at least for now.  Anything you can tell from the debris?
TO_Tyler says:
XO: Aye aye, Sir.
EO_Running_Horse says:
::begins to do diagnostics on engineering systems but not so they interfere with ships operations::
XO_Q`tor says:
OPS:  Have the debris transported to the main cargo bay for analysis.
TO_Tyler says:
::brings up his weapons display and makes ready to power them up at a moment's notice.::
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
@CTO: I have a suspicion, but I need to check the maintenance logs on the ship first.
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
*Transporter Room*:  Transport the debris to main cargo bay.
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@CEO: Suspicion?  Should I not like the sound of that?

ACTION:  The debris is beamed to the Huron.

OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
XO:  Done, Sir.  
CO:  Those ships ::taps a few buttons on the console.::  They appear to be the ships that we encountered earlier with the Gorn.  Their signatures match.
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
::swears under his breath:: OPS: Scan for Gorn vessels.
 
ACTION:  The 6 blips begin to spread out... which will make it difficult for the Huron to run.

TO_Tyler says:
::looks at his sensors:: XO: Sir, the ships are spreading out.. it looks like they may be trying to surround us.
XO_Q`tor says:
TO: Arm weapons
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Scans the area for other ships.::  CO:  They appear to be spreading out, possibly forming an attack pattern.
TO_Tyler says:
XO: Aye, sir.. red alert?
XO_Q`tor says:
OPS:  Get a transporter lock on all of our people on the surface.
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
@CTO: That's the first lot gone.
TO_Tyler says:
::powers up the weapons::
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
TO: Put it on the main screen. I want to see how they're spreading out.
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
XO:  Already on it, Sir.  They are not within weapons range as of yet.
TO_Tyler says:
::nods to the CO, and puts his sensor display on the main viewer::
XO_Q`tor says:
TO: Don't go to red alert just yet.
TO_Tyler says:
XO: Aye sir.
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
*CNS*:  Randi, we have a problem.  There are 6 ships headed our way.  We may need to do an immediate evac.
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@CEO: Everything of serious danger I believe.  Outside of the temperatures and the couple of grass fires they caused.
XO_Q`tor says:
*CTO*:  Commander we have company.  Inform your people there to be ready for transport back to the ship.
CNS-Cmdr-McIntyre says:
@*OPS*:  Brandy, leave me here... we have to get this vaccine to the people.  I will yell if I need help!
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
XO:  Sir, Commander McIntyre is requesting to remain behind on the planet in the event of an evac.
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
@CTO: They're not beaming us back now are they? I need to examine the area more thoroughly for....:: pauses and then sees a child running off with something :: Icky, that little boy has something.
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
*CNS*:  It could get rather ugly Randi.  We do not know what we're up against.
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@*XO*: Aye Sir, but do you think that's wise?  If it's a threat, lowering shields is a bad move.  If it isn't, abandoning the remaining debris likely is and...oh shoot, one minute!
XO_Q`tor says:
OPS:  Very well, but tell her to be ready for an attack.
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
CO:  No other vessels detected, Sir.  Just the 6 ships.
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@CEO: That one?  ::Goes in pursuit.::
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
OPS: Well, that's a plus, I guess.
 
ACTION:  Unknown to the crew of the Huron, there are 7 ships, one is cloaked.  An old BoP uncloaks and fires torpedoes at the Huron, rocking her violently, and taking shields down to 30%.

CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
::swears loudly this time:: TO: Shields! Return fire!
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
*CNS*:  Permission to remain behind granted.  Please ... ::Raises shields.::
XO_Q`tor says:
TO: Red Alert!!!
EO_Running_Horse says:
::lands a few feet from her console::
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
Self:  Whoa!  What was that?
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
@ :; follows Icky on the run ::
EO_Running_Horse says:
Self: Damn it.
EO_Running_Horse says:
ALL: Red alert condition set 6.
TO_Tyler says:
::raises shields, hit the BIG RED BUTTON, and fires a full spread of torps and phasers::
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
XO:  Shields down 30%, Sir.  Transferring additional power to shields.

ACTION:  A little too late, the Huron goes to Red Alert.

XO_Q`tor says:
*CTO*:  Commander we've been fired on.  Secure your position and dig in.
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
*CNS*:  Randi, we are under attack!  I repeat!  Under attack!  Be prepared for battle down there, and you may need to find shelter.
 
ACTION:  Systems begin to shut down all over the Huron.  Electrical shorts are causing minor fires all over the ship.

CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@*XO*: Aye Sir, currently in pursuit of a lifted piece, but we'll be fine.
EO_Running_Horse says:
ALL: All damage teams to assigned areas, All shields to 100%, Engines to 100%.......What the hell is going on?? ::watches as her board begins to flash red::
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
@ :: catches up to Icky :: CTO: We'll be fine? What's happening up there?
XO_Q`tor says:
AFCO:  Evasive manuevers!
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@CEO: Great, ship's under attack AND we have a munchkin thief.

ACTION:  Return fire on the BoP was useless, as it re-cloaked immediately.

OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
CO:  I am detecting system shutdown on Decks 8, 12, and 18.  Transferring auxiliary power to shields and outer plating.
TO_Tyler says:
::scans for tachyon emissions and fires a torpedo in that direction, hoping to make contact::
XO_Q`tor says:
AFCO:  keep us between those ships and the planet!
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@CEO: I wish I had details, but the last thing I want to do is disturb them during combat.  They'll let us know if something happens we can deal with.
CNS-Cmdr-McIntyre says:
@*OPS*:  Understood.
Nurses:  The Huron has been fired upon... issue weapons and keep your eyes open.
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
XO: Commander, I hate to ask.. are there any weaknesses in that ship class we can use to our advantage?
Doctor Karin says:
@::Arms herself with a weapon and slips it in her boot, and then continues to administer the vaccines.::
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
@ :: sees the boy ahead of them :: CTO: So we're cut off from the Huron for now then?
EO_Running_Horse says:
*CO*: I got red lights all over the boards here.  We have fires that are minor.
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@*Perimeter team*: Full alert, the Huron is under attack, weapons armed, be ready just in case.
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
CO:  Shields are at maximum, Sir.
 
ACTION:  The 6 blips begin to move closer.

TO_Tyler says:
::watches his torpedo on sensors, hoping it finds a trail::
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
*EO*: We were caught by surprise by an old cloaked Bird of Prey. Try to keep this bird in one piece.
TO_Tyler says:
CO/XO: Sir, the 6 other ships are moving in...
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@CEO: Sort of.  They're there, they know we're here.  I just don't want to bother them with a bunch of questions and keep them from their jobs.
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
CO:  And those ships are headed this way.  ::Sends the data to the Tactical Console.::
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
TO: Target phasers.
 
ACTION:  It becomes apparent to OPS that the 6 ships are making for the planet.

EO_Running_Horse says:
*CO*: Power is going off in many areas.  I have all my teams on damage repair and Alpha, Beta, and Gamma teams are working on restoring power to major areas.
XO_Q`tor says:
CO:  Their greatest weakness depends entirely on how well our tactical officer is able to manually aim phasers.  When the ship decloaks to fire there will be approximately 2 seconds between being cloaked and their shields being raised... not enough time for the targeting computers to lock on unless we know where they will be coming from.
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
@CTO: There's the boy!
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
CO:  Captain!  We have a situation!  Those ships are headed for the planet!
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
*CNS*:  Randi, you're about to get some company!  ETA 5 minutes!
EO_Running_Horse says:
*CO*: Bringing online all fusion reactors from hot standby to online status just tell me where you need the power and I will give it to you.
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
XO: Well then, I guess we need to draw its fire. TO: You hear that, Tyler?
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
*EO*: Thank you!
CNS-Cmdr-McIntyre says:
@*OPS*:  Understood Brandy... we will take cover.
XO_Q`tor says:
CO:  Once they are decloaked however, lock all weapons on the rear dorsal shield emitters, close to the impulse drive.  That is where the shields will be weakest.
TO_Tyler says:
::targets the first ship, hearing the XO locks on manually:: CO: Aye sir, ready when you are.
EO_Running_Horse says:
ALL: Get your rumps moving gang We got trouble headed for the planet and this ship needs power. Move it!!!!
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
TO: Try to take out the weapons of the ships we can still see.
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@CEO: Remind me to smack Perimeter team upside their head when we get back.
TO_Tyler says:
CO: Aye, Captain.
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
AFCO: Get into a defensive orbit.
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
@ :: smiles :: CTO: Well for now we just do what we came here to do.
 
ACTION:  As the Huron moves, the 6 ships make adjustments where the Huron cannot fire with any accuracy.

CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@CEO: And whistle while we run?  ::Grins.::
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
*EO*:  Ens. Running Horse, tell me what you need, and I'll check available resources.
XO_Q`tor says:
TO: Prepare a full spread of torpedoes, maximum dispersal pattern
TO_Tyler says:
::manually moves his targeting reticule to lock with the first ship, and keeps it in the frame while prepping the torpedoes::
EO_Running_Horse says:
*OPS*: I don't need anything. I was letting the CO know and I should have told you power is available for you where ever you need it sir.
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@::Reaches out and grabs the kids shoulder.::  Kid: Woah there, we need that back!
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
*EO*:  Understood, let me know if you need anything.  Daniels out.
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
@CTO: You run and I'll whistle. :: pulls up ::
 
ACTION:  The kid kicks the CTO in the shin.

EO_Running_Horse says:
*OPS*: Understood.
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@Kid: Come on, you can do better than that, but tell you what.  Give me that piece back, and I'll give you this.  ::Holds out a spare parts pouch with a shiny buckle.::
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
@ :: reaches down and grabs the boy as well :: Boy: Sorry young man but that is a dangerous piece of equipment and we need it.
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
::thinks:: AFCO: Helm... adjust our heading. Leave an obvious opening for that Bird of Prey.
 
ACTION:  The kid grabs the bag, letting the shuttle piece drop to the ground, then runs like a wounded cat.

CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
@ :: laughs :: CTO: I hope there wasn't anything valuable in that bag.
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@CEO: Depends on how long we're down here, but hopefully loosing lunch won't matter.
TO_Tyler says:
::watches the sensors closely, targeting the opening where he's hoping the bop will show up::
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
@ :: picks up the shuttle piece :: CTO: Look, he had the flight recorder.
EO_Running_Horse says:
::begins to receive reports from her damage control teams::
 
ACTION:  For no reason, seen by the crew of the Huron, the 6 ships take off and disappear from sensors.

CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@::Smiles.::  CEO: I guess that lunch was worth it, then.  I would have thought that it’s  a homing beacon would have attracted first transport, but let's get back to the main group.
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
@CTO: I hope the data crystal isn't damaged.
TO_Tyler says:
XO: Sir, the 6 ships are leaving out of range...
TO_Tyler says:
::performs another tackyon sweep again::
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Checks her sensors.::  XO:  They're gone from sensors.
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
TO: Tachyon sweep?
XO_Q`tor says:
TO: I want a full tachyon sweep of the area.  Make sure that bird of prey is not in the area.
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@CEO: Could it be?  I thought those things were so well shielded you couldn't crack it with an orbital drop?
TO_Tyler says:
CO/XO: Nothing right now Sirs.
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
TO: Lower shields over one of the transport emitters and resume bringing the debris onboard.
XO_Q`tor says:
CO:  My apologies sir.
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
@ :: carries the box close to her chest :: CTO: With a crash like this who knows.
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
*CNS*:  Randi, it appears as though our friends have taken off again.  You are in the clear .. for now.
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
::looks to his XO:: XO: For what?
TO_Tyler says:
::nods, lowering the starboard ventral shields and energizing transporters again::
CNS-Cmdr-McIntyre says:
@*OPS*:  Thanks Brandy... I wish they would make up their minds!  I am beginning to lose people due to this plague.
XO_Q`tor says:
CO:  My instincts were telling me to order a tachyon sweep of the area.  I did not do so.
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
@CTO: Can you see if we can be beamed up now? I really want to examine this in the engineering lab.
XO_Q`tor says:
CO: If I had we would not have been taken by surprise like we were.
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@CEO: Let's look at things with some kind of hope, fate isn't always going to contrive against us.
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Sighs.::  *CNS*:  I hear you, Randi.  I hear you.
TO_Tyler says:
*CTO*: Things are clear for now Sir.. you guys coming up?
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
@ :: smiles at her friend :: CTO: I sure hope not.
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
::shrugs:: XO: And if I hadn't ordered the shields down, they probably wouldn't have fired. You didn't hail them, saying, "Here, fire on us." You didn't do anything wrong.
XO_Q`tor says:
CO:  You are not a Klingon sir.  You would not understand.
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@*TO*: Yes, have Commander Sparks and I beamed up, and then make sure that everyone on collection detail is thorough.  I want every scrap accounted for.  I'll check your report on the battle when I get back, nice work.
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
@ :: arrives back at the debris field ::
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
@CEO: We should be back up any second.
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
::raises an eyebrow:: XO: I've worked closely with Klingons, Commander... and apologizing isn't exactly a common Klingon tactic, now is it?
TO_Tyler says:
*CTO*: Aye sir, stand by. ::turns to OPS:: OPS: Beam up the CTO and CEO, please.
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Transports the CTO and CEO aboard.::

ACTION:  The CTO and CEO transport to the Huron.

XO_Q`tor says:
CO: Duj tIvoqtaH... ALWAYS trust your instincts.  ::lets just the slightest hint of a smile out::  I am not exactly a common Klingon sir.
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
TO:  I have them, Sir.
 
ACTION:  A fire breaks out on deck 17... very close to the deuterium tanks.

CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CEO: Now comes the next fun part, trying to figure out who attacked us and why.
EO_Running_Horse says:
::red light blinks on the board in a new area::
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
CO/XO:  I hate to interrupt, Sirs, but I am detecting a fire on Deck 17.
EO_Running_Horse says:
Self: Oh Crap.
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
CO/XO:  It's in the area of the deuterium tanks.
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
::smiles:: XO: Commander, this is nothing I'll hold against yo-- OPS: You've got to be kidding me.
XO_Q`tor says:
OPS:  Are the ships fire suppression systems not working?
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
TO: Scan for unknown life-forms in that area.
XO_Q`tor says:
OPS:  Seal the area.
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
:: steps off the pad :: CTO: I want to check the maintenance logs on the Tyderium. I have an idea of what may have happened. Catch you later.
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
CEO: I'll look forward to it.
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Sighs and seals the area.::
TO_Tyler says:
::checks internal sensors, and checks the status of fire suppression on that deck::
 
ACTION:  The fire suppression system does not kick in... it was damaged and shorted out.

EO_Running_Horse says:
*GamaTeam*: Get your butts over near the duterium tanks we have fire there. Move!!!!!
TO_Tyler says:
::seals off that frame on deck 17 with forcefields, letting the fire burn itself out::
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
XO:  It appears the damage we sustained in the cross-fire shorted out the system.
XO_Q`tor says:
OPS:  Once you have the area sealed, turn off life support for that section and get the oxygen out of it.
 
ACTION:  A lifeform is detected on deck 17, then disappears.

CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
::raises an eyebrow:: XO: Commander, I hope you don't intend to kill anyone in that area..
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
:: enters main engineering the box still in her hands ::
TO_Tyler says:
CO: Sir, the fire suppression is off in that area.. I have emergency forcefields.. what the... Sir, lifeform on deck 17, sealing the deck.
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
XO:  Q'tor, for a minute there, I picked up a life sign, but it's gone now.
XO_Q`tor says:
CO: Only the fire sir.
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
::Secures gear and heads to the Bridge.::
TO_Tyler says:
*Security Team 1*: Seal off deck 17!
TO_Tyler says:
::activates security lockouts on all jeffries tubes and TL's to deck 17::
EO_Running_Horse says:
::sees the CEO::
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
::looks at the XO and grins:: XO: My apologies.
EO_Running_Horse says:
CEO: Sir welcome back.
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
XO:  Do you still want me to remove the oxygen from the area, Sir?
CO_LtCmdr_Andrews says:
OPS: Replace it with anesthezine.
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
EO: What the devil is going on with my engine room?
TO_Tyler says:
::sounds the intruder alert:: *CTO*: Intruder on Deck 17, Sir.
XO_Q`tor says:
CO: Force fields should seal off the fire, create a vacuum and the fire should die.
XO_Q`tor says:
OPS:  From the section fire section yes.
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Releases anesthezine gas into the venting system where there are no personnel, and that has been sealed.::
OPS_Ens_Daniels says:
XO:  Done, Sir.
CTO_LtCMdr_Ec`Thel`Ion says:
*TO*: Intruder?  Good to see today is keeping us busy.  What section?  ::Redirects the TL to Deck 17.::
CEO_LtCmdr_Sparks says:
:: places the box on the main console :: EO: Look at those red flashers. Are repair teams deployed?
TO_Tyler says:
*CTO*: Last seen on section 15.
 
ACTION:  As the fire uses up the oxygen, it sputters and dies.
