::Walking around inside the Vulcan freighter, looking about::

CTO_Marek says:
::Leading his team through the ship corridors, gathering as much as possible tricorder information::

OPS_Kerst says:
::Stands alert, phaser rifle in hand, just outside the freighter peering into the summer forest, now winter forest, now desert, wondering what's next::

CEO_Corjet says:
::After talking with his wife, Randy continues scanning the Vulcan freighter:: Self: Interesting... ::Taps a few controls on his tricorder::

CSO_Pavielion says:
::Leans down closer to the ground::

CNS_Toni says:
::Holding up tricorder, taking scans of the weather changes::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Taps COM badge:: *CSO* Mitchell to Pavielion.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Looks up at the ship and moves closer to it with one of the tactical officers with him::

CSO_Pavielion says:
::Looks at the tricorder, hears the Captain on his COM badge::  *CO* Pavielion here, Sir.

OPS_Kerst says:
Self: I hate temporal stuff.

CTO_Marek says:
self:: The chronoton particles seem to be affecting the tricorder scans. 

CEO_Corjet says:
::Pauses his scans of the ship and looks over to the CSO as he hears the Captain::

MO_Sovok says:
::Looks down at the Vulcan crewmembers, wonders how old they are and begins to treat them::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
*CSO* Begin forming two man teams and spread out.  Gather as much tricorder information as you can in 30 minutes then have them report back here.

Host James says:
Action: The scene around the crew changes.  The Vulcan freighter has disappeared, leaving only the Vulcan survivors (three of them) being treated on the ground.  The crews are back in a lush forest setting.  There is a ruined structure approximately 100 meters away.

CNS_Toni says:
::Notices that her tricorder is not working properly::

CTO_Marek says:
sec team: Ok, gentlemen, let's proceed to Main Cargo Bay.

OPS_Kerst says:
::Notices structures::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Looks around surprised at the new surroundings::

OPS_Kerst says:
CO: There appears to be structures over there.  ::Points::

CNS_Toni says:
::Looks up to see the scenery changes, again::

CTO_Marek says:
<Security Team> CTO: Aye, Sir.  ::Follows the CTO::

MO_Sovok says:
::Gets set off balance slightly by the change and looks around::

FCO_Stricker says:
::Is on the planet with the team::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Taps away at the controls of his tricorder to start scanning for any power signatures. Looks up and sees the ship has disappeared.  Looks around at the crew.  Hears a beep from his tricorder and looks down at it::

OPS_Kerst says:
FCO: hang close and try to gather as much data as possible. And be careful, this cannot be good.

FCO_Stricker says:
OPS: May I ask where we are heading Sir...I don't mean to ask but I just need some clarification Sir!

CSO_Pavielion says:
::Looks to the side as a crewman calls his name, orders the crewman to begin gathering people and assigning them to two man groups and giving them scanning areas::

CNS_Toni says:
::Walks over to MO and taps him on the shoulder::

MO_Sovok says:
::Turns around and looks at the CNS:: CNS: Yes, Sir?

OPS_Kerst says:
FCO: We'll scout a short distance towards those structures, but I do not want to loss contact with the main group, so we'll only go a short distance.

CIV_Danforth says:
::Stands near the Captain with his phaser rifle::

CTO_Marek says:
CIV: Please, see to split your men, Commander We must get all the information we can about those structures.

FCO_Stricker says:
OPS: Yes, Sir! ::Grabs his phaser rife:: After you, Sir!

CIV_Danforth says:
::Walks back and forth like a sentry, making sure the men are all right::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Targets the ground where the Vulcan ship was and scans it very closely.  Then waves it round in the air as he scans the area:: Self: Those chronotons are... ::Sighs and shakes his head as he's got all the available data::

CIV_Danforth says:
CTO: Of course, Commander.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CSO: Report.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Walks over to the rest of the crew::

CNS_Toni says:
MO: This Vulcan looks vaguely familiar but I can't quite put my finger on from where!

OPS_Kerst says:
::Moves a short distance towards the structures, making sure not to loss contact with the main group::

CSO_Pavielion says:
CO: Scans of the area have picked up structures one hundred meters to the northeast.  We were just about to investigate, Sir.

Host James says:
Action: The crew of the U.S.S. Erie beam down to the planet, investigating the readings of other Starfleet officers on the surface.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CSO: Very well.  Proceed.

CTO_Marek says:
CIV/Security Team: Phasers set to stun.  I think we are going to find some surprises here.

CEO_Corjet says:
CO: I also got as much data from this crash site ::Sighs:: or what use to be the crash site.

MO_Sovok says:
::Looks at the Vulcan and then at the CNS:: CNS: I've only been here for a short time, was the person you think it was on the station before I was?

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@::Materializes on the surface::

CNS_Toni2 says:
@::Materializes next to CEO2::

CIV_Danforth says:
To the group: Ensign Bear and Ensign Neyland, head to target two.  Ensign Merryweather stick with Crewman Mitchell and go toward target three.

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@::Arrives on the planet and looks around::

CSO_Pavielion says:
::Stops and stares for a moment, is shocked at what he sees::

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@::Looks around the planet surface::  CTO: Scan this area, see if there is something unusual there.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Looks over and sees himself:: CEO: Who are you? ::Takes a defensive stance and pulls out his phaser::

CIV_Danforth says:
::Looks at the team beaming in and is surprised::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Sees another Erie crew materialize.  Raises eyebrow::  Self: Curious.  ::Walks over to her look-a-like::

OPS_Kerst says:
::Hears the sound of a transporter and looks around::

CNS_Toni says:
MO: Yes, it seems so but he has changed a little.  I wonder...

FCO_Stricker says:
::Follow right behind the OPS officer::

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@::Looks around and visibly sees the other officers, quite confused for a moment::

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@::Spots all crewmembers present and accounted for::

CNS_Toni2 says:
@::Looks around at least slightly confused::

OPS_Kerst says:
All: What the...???

CTO_Marek2 says:
@::Takes out his phaser and begins tricorder readings:: CO: Aye, Captain.

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@::Turns to see her doppelganger, draws phaser from her boot:: CO: Who are you and what are you doing in my body?

CEO_Corjet says:
::Moves closer to the CO guarding her:: ALL: Halt!

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@::Notices himself looking at him::

CSO-Pavielion2 says:
@::Looks just as confused as the rest::

MO_Sovok says:
CNS: Maybe they had cosmetic surgery.

CSO_Pavielion says:
::Scans the others::

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@CO2: I am an engineer, Sir, but this I can't explain.  Who are they?

OPS_Kerst says:
:Sees himself and points phaser rifle::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Stares at her twin::  CO2: And just what is going on here?

CIV_Danforth says:
::Is lucky not to have a twin::

CNS_Toni2 says:
@All 2s: Did I miss something?

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@CO: You tell me.

OPS_Kerst says:
@OPS2: Hold it right there!

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@CEO: Who are you to be saying "halt"?

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@::Rests his hand on his type 2 phaser::

CTO_Marek says:
Self: What is going on here?  ::Raises an eyebrow to the other CTO::

CIV_Danforth says:
::Stands next to his Captain::

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@OPS: What the...???

CEO_Corjet says:
::Keeps himself in between the CO and the others:: CEO2: I’m Commander Corjet.

CIV_Danforth says:
CO: Sir, I think we're seeing ourselves here.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Looks at her twin up and down::  CO2: Your boots are scuffed.  You cannot be me.  My boots are never scuffed.

OPS_Kerst says:
OPS2: I said that already!  Who are you?

CNS_Toni says:
MO: Can you scan for that?  My tricorder seems to be doing a little mechanical failure dance.

CNS_Toni2 says:
@::Hmmm...the prototypes ACT real::

CTO_Marek2 says:
@::Points phasers at "original crew":: CO2: Sir, they are some kind of clones of us.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Pulls out tricorder and scans her twin::

CTO_Marek says:
::Scans the other crew with his tricorder:: Self: But it's me. Interesting....

CSO_Pavielion says:
::Walks up next to the CO::  CO: Sir, I have scanned them.  They are us.  They match us in every way, including appearance.

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@OPS: Commander Kerst, who are you?

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@::Stares coldly at his supposed double:: CEO: Place of birth, serial number, the exact power core classification of the Erie?

FCO_Stricker says:
OPS: Who is that, Sir?

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@CO: Your boots would be scuffed too if you had to battle Borg and nearly destroy your ship to get back here via a high-warp conduit.

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@CO2: They may be changeling renegades, Ma'am.

CNS_Toni2 says:
@::Notices the duplicate of her:: CNS: Greetings, we come in peace.

MO_Sovok says:
::Nods and scans the Vulcan:: CNS: Hmmm... my tricorder is picking up no cosmetic changes, from surgery that is.

CIV_Danforth says:
::Wonders if something happens to him in another timeline that he doesn't exist::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CSO: Perhaps, Commander, but...::Looks at the CO2's boots again::

CSO_Pavielion says:
::Is disturbed when he sees his own twin::

OPS_Kerst says:
FCO: A fake, a clone, I'm not sure.  Keep him covered with your phaser.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Looks at himself closely.  Sees his identical self. Scans him with his tricorder with his phaser in his hand:: CEO2: Terok Nor.. ::Pauses:: How can I be sure your me?

CTO_Marek says:
::Sees CTO2 raising his phaser:: CTO2: Put that phaser down, Marek!

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@ ::Blinks and stares at his double::

CNS_Toni2 says:
@CNS: And if I may, you look stunning.

CSO-Pavielion2 says:
@::Begins tricorder scans also::

OPS_Kerst says:
OPS2: Nice try but I am Lieutenant Commander Kerst.  You're an imposter!

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ CEO2: How can I be sure YOU'RE me?

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CO2: Tell me, where did you come from?

FCO_Stricker says:
::Looks over and sees FCO2:: OPS: I'd never though I'd see the day.

CTO_Marek2 says:
@CTO: If you are really a Vulcan, you should know I wouldn’t put my phaser down.

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@CO: Originally, Vulcan, but I grew up in Los Angeles.

CSO_Pavielion says:
::Looks back towards the Erie crew::  All: Stick together....err...with your original crew, we do not want to get anyone mixed up.

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@ ::Walks forward to his double and pokes him::

CNS_Toni2 says:
@CNS: So, who made you?

CEO_Corjet says:
CEO2: Where did I meet Ahkayah?

CNS_Toni says:
::Looks up at her double and is shocked::

CTO_Marek says:
CTO2: We must solve this in a logic way. 

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@OPS: Nice show, Commander, but we know who the clone is here.  ::Unholsters his phaser but doesn't point it yet::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CO2: Then I KNOW for certain you are not me as I did not grow up in Los Angeles.

CNS_Toni says:
CNS2: Where are you from?

CNS_Toni2 says:
@::Walks around her double:: CNS: You are just like me!  At least you look like me.

CIV_Danforth says:
CO2: Sir, what is the Stardate?

FCO_Stricker says:
FCO2: I've been turned into a slug, injured and almost went insane but never have I seen my double.

OPS_Kerst says:
OPS2: Careful, I don't miss.

CTO_Marek2 says:
@CTO: That's clear even for a duplicate as you.

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ ::With an incredulous confidence:: CEO: Starbase 78, during a shore leave.

OPS_Kerst says:
::Keeps phaser rifle pointed at OPS2::

CNS_Toni2 says:
@::Eyes become wary:: CNS: I'm from home, what about you?

CNS_Toni says:
CNS2: And you DO look stunning.

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@FCO: It's new for me too.  Well, on the bright side, we're not pointing phasers at each other right?

CTO_Marek says:
::Frowns at CTO2:: CTO2: If you really are me, tell me, where did I grow up?

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Holds up her hand for her crew to quiet down::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Smiles as he remembers.  Looks him over and then the tricorder readings:: CEO2: Correct.

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@::Blinks:: Self: Did I say Los Angeles?

CNS_Toni2 says:
@CNS: Yes! We are both stunning.  It's amazing.  I never thought there could be another me.  ::Looks at the duplicate CO and quiets, not noticing the difference::

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@CO: Okay, then what was our first post after the Academy?

CEO_Corjet says:
::Starts to think, and then looks to his Captain. Stops and turns to her:: CO: Sir?

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CO2: Obviously you and your crew are imposters.  I want to know who you are and what are you doing on this planet.

CTO_Marek2 says:
@CTO: I won't give you any information about me. That's what you need to take my place.

FCO_Stricker says:
FCO2: Yes, but do you have all my memories.  The Pendragon, Drakos 4, my, I mean our father death, the terrible pasts, the counseling session, do you?

CNS_Toni says:
CNS2: I am Lieutenant Commander Toni West.  Who are you really?  This is getting us nowhere.  Why are you here?

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@ ::Side glances to the CO::

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ CEO: What's the most common reason that you have to take Kootenai's EPS net down?

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Motions for CSO Pavielion to approach::

CEO_Corjet says:
CO: Captain, I don’t think they're imposters.  ::Sighs:: My double knows where Tasha and me met and only me and her know.

CNS_Toni2 says:
@CNS: I am here because Captain Mitchell ordered me here. You'll have to ask her why.

CSO_Pavielion says:
::Walks over next to the Captain and looks at the other Captain::

CNS_Toni says:
::Cuts her eyes at MO Sovok::

CTO_Marek says:
CTO2: This is nonsense.  If you are me, you know I certainly wouldn't lie or any such thing.

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@ ::Twitches at those memories:: FCO: Yeah.

OPS_Kerst says:
::Fingers his rifle::

CEO_Corjet says:
CEO2: For maintenance and for replacement of some of the Power Transfer Conduits.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Looks at the CSO::  CSO: Commander, are you sure your tricorder readings are correct?

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ ::Starts to walk over to his own group:: OPS2/CO2: What do you think of them?

FCO_Stricker says:
FCO2: What are you, a clone or an android?

CNS_Toni2 says:
@CNS: This whole thing is absolutely fascinating... who knows what will come of it..?

CNS_Toni says:
::Turns toward Mo Sovok:: MO: What do your scans say about these doubles?

OPS_Kerst says:
::Wishes he had his sword with him::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CEO: We shall find out soon, Commander.

CTO_Marek2 says:
@CTO: What you don't seem to understand, is that I am not you, YOU ARE ME!. Or at least try to be me. Your logic fails terribly at that point.

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@<CIV2>  ::Peers at his double, somewhat silently::

CTO_Marek says:
CO: Sir, we must be really careful. This could cause a mayor conflict on our time line.

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@CEO2: Well one of them is pointing a phaser at me....

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ ::Turns back around again:: CEO: What's the average maintenance lifespan on Kootenai's power core, and what is the EPS flow's nominal frequency?

CSO_Pavielion says:
::Rechecks them::  CO: Yes, Sir, there is no mistake.  They are us.  Very minor differences, such as short-term memories.

CNS_Toni says:
::Turns toward double::

CNS_Toni2 says:
@CNS: So much... new information for the field of psychology ::Looks at the CNS:: Yes... what did YOUR Sovok find out about US?

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CTO: Agreed, Commander.

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@CO: If I'm an imposter, then how do you explain this?  ::Shows a ring::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Still stands next to his Captain:: CO: Aye, Sir.. ::Turns to the CEO2::

OPS_Kerst says:
OPS2: What's the Stardate?

FCO_Stricker says:
FCO2: What are you?  Please...tell me!

CNS_Toni says:
CNS2: For my understanding, did you come from The U.S.

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@OPS1: 10107.26

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Looks at the ring::  CO2: That proves nothing.

CEO_Corjet says:
CEO2: Power core's lifespan is 100 years. ::Giggles:: You tell me what the frequency is. I've answered a lot of your questions already.

CTO_Marek says:
::Thinks:: CTO2: Maybe you are right. Ok, so, please, put your phaser down before we both make a terrible mistake here.

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@OPS: Why is that important?

CNS_Toni says:
CNS2: The U.S.S. Erie?

OPS_Kerst says:
OPS2: Well, you're not a time ripple, so you must be an imposter!

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@CSO: Commander, could you scan this ring and compare this to the one that Capt. Mitchell has?

CNS_Toni2 says:
@CNS: No, I was saying what did your Sovok find out about us? The people us?  We... ::Motions to the all the duplicates--or whom she thinks are the duplicates::

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@ ::Rubs back of head:: Stricker: I'm who I say I am ... just like my crew are who they say they are.

CTO_Marek says:
::Puts his phaser back at the holster:: CTO2: See? 

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@OPS: and why shouldn’t I think the same of you?

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CSO: Commander?  Could this be us from another timeline?

CNS_Toni2 says:
@CNS: Yes, we just came down from the Erie

OPS_Kerst says:
OPS2: I was here first!

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ ::Quick pause:: CEO: Under normal operation, 69.3 KeV During power conservation, 32.2 KeV. And during high-load, upwards of 90 KeV

CEO_Corjet says:
::Snaps his head back to the CO and CSO:: CO/CSO: I would think so..  With all the chronotons in the area... It would be a possibility.

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@OPS: And I was on the Erie.  You could be some kind of alien species native to this planet.

CTO_Marek2 says:
@CTO: You know that logic dictates that you are whether copies or ourselves from another timeline or quantum reality. ::Puts his phaser down, but not completely down:: You are too naive to be me.

CNS_Toni says:
CNS2: there must be an explanation for this, have you noticed that the planet is changing time periods quickly?

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@<CIV2> ::Crosses arms, and continues to observe them all::

FCO_Stricker says:
FCO2: Are you me, but from back in time?

CEO_Corjet says:
::Smiles as he turns back to CEO2 and laughs:: CEO2: Your correct again. ::Turns back to his Captain::

OPS_Kerst says:
OPS2: If you're me, than answer me this. What does my grandfather make.

CSO_Pavielion says:
::Looks towards his Captain, ignoring the other one::  CO: most likely, space time is almost like a honey comb, anything that can happen, will happen, most likely somewhere along the line these people made a different decision than us, and somehow, we have all ended up on this planet, the chronoton fields have to be responsible.

CNS_Toni2 says:
@::Nods:: CNS: I don't understand it myself, but it is... you were here first, do you have any ideas?

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@ FCO: Depends on what year you're from ...

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@OPS1: Romulan Ale, of course!

CIV_Danforth says:
CIV2: Come with me please.

OPS_Kerst says:
::Shakes his head::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Smiles at the CSO and nods::

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@<CIV2> ::Eyes his double wearily::  Danforth: Where are we going?

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CSO: What affect will our having met ourselves have on the space-time continuum?

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@::Turns to her CSO:: CSO2: I hoped you wouldn't have done that.

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ ::Annoyed:: CEO: Of course I'm right. But are we going to stand here all day and stare at each other or are we going to try and find some way to reintegrate ourselves?

Host James says:
Action: The setting around both crews’ changes again.  This time the lush forest is replaced with a fairly dense jungle.  The ruins are still visible, but they seem to have been "repaired" somewhat.

CTO_Marek says:
CTO2: The chronoton particles seem to be affecting our judgments.  Please, we must calm down and work this out.

FCO_Stricker says:
FCO2: Are you here to tell me something or do you just exist because of an overlap in time?

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@ FCO: Heh, listen, I know as much or as little as you do right now.

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ ::Looks around as the scenery changes:: All: Did someone forget to prune the bushes?

CSO-Pavielion2 says:
@CO2: What just happened?

CNS_Toni says:
CNS2: We are coming to the conclusion that there is some sort of time rift so we could even be indeed one person, just trapped out of our own times.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Lifts up his tricorder as it beeps at him and looks at it::

OPS_Kerst says:
OPS2: Okay, you got that right but still, I'm me and there can't be two of me can there?

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@OPS: I was wondering the same thing.

CIV_Danforth says:
CIV_Danforth2: Just to the side so we can talk privately.

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@OPS: What’s going on?

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Looks at her twin again::

CSO_Pavielion says:
CO: If we leave this planet together, worst case, the two timelines could split wide open and collide with one another.  Possibly opening up the possibility for other timelines to merge with ours.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Turns to scan the buildings.  Taps at the controls with his eyebrows pushed together:: Self: Interesting.

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@<CIV2> ::Looks around at the changing scenery:: CIV: All right as long as we don't vanish with all of this.

CTO_Marek says:
::Keeps his tricorder activated on a permanent scan of CTO2::

CNS_Toni2 says:
@::Looks around and shakes her head:: CNS: Interesting.  So that means we're really actually the same.  Really freaky but fascinating though.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Sees the scenery change yet again and sighs::

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@::Hears CTO1:: CSO2: He ignored a request from his superior officer.  CO: Marek is right, Captain.  We should find a way to solve this dilemma.  ::Sees the scenery change::

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ CO/CO2: Sirs, I really don't care which one of us is real, if it is only one of us. Given the beeping of my double's tricorder, I believe it to be beneficial for us to investigate those ruins.

OPS_Kerst says:
OPS2: I hate temporal mechanics!
 
FCO_Stricker says:
FCO2: So, what must we do, Tim?

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@All: I hate temporal mechanics!

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CSO: Any suggestions?  There are two of you, so I expect double the amount of suggestions, Commanders.

CNS_Toni2 says:
@CNS: The question is, though, which one of us is the duplicate?

CEO_Corjet says:
CO: The buildings have changed, Sir.  ::Takes a step towards them but stops and turns around:: CO: That building seems to have undergone some effects from the last chronoton distortion.

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@ Stricker: Follow orders? I'm sure the Captain, our Captains, will know what to do.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Looks around:: CEO: Commander Corjet?

CIV_Danforth says:
CIV2: Tell me what your true mission is with the Kootenai crew?

OPS_Kerst says:
OPS2: If you're me and I'm you and this is some screwy temporal thing-a-ma-jig, how do we fix it?

CNS_Toni says:
Yeah, but it might be best if we did not actually touch each other, being out of time phase might cause a problem if we touch.  So, let's not.  Just stay at least 5 feet away from me.

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@CEO2: Commander Corjet?

FCO_Stricker says:
FCO2: Okay, well if you are me what is my middle name, since no one knows it?

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@OPS: We could bang our heads together.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CEO: Take a team and search the building but be careful!  Report back in 5 minutes.

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ CO2: Yes, Sir?

CTO_Marek2 says:
@CTO: Calm down? I'm a Vulcan, I don't need to calm down and emotions don't affect me.

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@CEO2: You join your double's team.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Looks to his Captain:: CO: Aye, Sir.  ::Looks around:: Any recommendations as who I'm suppose to take?

CNS_Toni2 says:
@CNS: Point taken.  ::Steps back from her double a bit:: So we have the same memories.

CSO_Pavielion says:
::Raises an eyebrow and also hears the other CO and frowns::

CNS_Toni says:
CNS2: Not trying to be snooty or anything, just think it would be best to not have to find out what would happen if we should blend atoms, you know.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Shakes his head as he looks around at all the doubles::

OPS_Kerst says:
OPS2: I'd rather bag swords.  It would be interesting to spar with myself.

CTO_Marek says:
CO: This is strange, Captain.  Marek2 seems to be slightly different from me.

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ CO2: Aye. ::Still unconvinced, cautiously edges towards himself::

CNS_Toni2 says:
@CNS: I know, I'm you remember?

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CEO: How about taking your twin?  Two heads are better than one.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CTO: Oh, in what way, Commander?

CNS_Toni2 says:
@CNS: Our thoughts are probably not the same, but they're probably not too different either

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@OPS: I would win for sure!

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@CO: I just ordered my Commander Corjet to join yours.

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@ ::Silently, so the other crew can't hear:: FCO: Robert.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Can’t help but to laugh:: CO: Aye, Sir.  ::Turns to CEO2:: You heard the Captain,  let’s move it.  ::Walks off towards the buildings, keeping his tricorder open to scan it::

CSO_Pavielion says:
CO: Sir, I do believe caution is still warranted.  We do not fully know the intentions of the other crew.  I do not believe we should be too eager to trust them.

OPS_Kerst says:
OPS2: Ha! I’d get you when you'd over extend yourself on the slash.

CNS_Toni says:
CNS2: So, what do we do now?  Let's see…

CTO_Marek says:
CO: Seems not be affected by the emotional crisis I had in the past. 

FCO_Stricker says:
FCO2: And how many people call me that?

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ ::Walks off, grabbing his own tricorder and opening it::

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@<CIV2>  ::Glances at the others out of the corner of his eye:: Danforth: I... we are with Starfleet Intelligence.

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@OPS: you would be the first to over extend!

CTO_Marek2 says:
@CO2: Sir, if both crews are from different quantum realities, we must be able to detect it from the quantum pattern in our bodies.  If we come from different timelines there will be a chronoton signal which will be different in each crew

CIV_Danforth says:
::Raises eyebrow at his double:: CIV2: What's our favorite drink?

CNS_Toni2 says:
@::Ponders:: CNS: Perhaps we should consult the Captain’s.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Looks to his double for a moment and then turns back to looking at the route they're taking:: CEO2: So, what is the last thing you remember before coming down here? ::Taps at his tricorders controls::

OPS_Kerst says:
OPS2: No, I'd parry, parry, thrust, twist, thrust, parry.

CSO-Pavielion2 says:
@CTO2: You may be on to something.

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@<CIV2> ::Mouth gets a bit dry at the thought of it:: CIV: Grape soda.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CO2: So, tell me CAPTAIN Mitchell, where did you just arrive from again?

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@CTO2: Interesting.  How do you suggest we use it?

Host James says:
Action: The scene changes yet again.  The jungle changes back to a primitive forest.  The building nearby appears to be in one piece.

CTO_Marek says:
::Hears CTO 2:: CO/CTO2: This could be interesting in deed.

CSO-Pavielion2 says:
@::Scanning again::

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@CO: Well, CAPTAIN Mitchell, MY crew just returned from the Beta Quadrant, on the other side of Romulan space.

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ CEO: We were coming back on the Erie from the Beta quadrant.  Came into orbit and detected a duplicate Erie so we came down.

FCO_Stricker says:
FCO2: And how many people call me that?

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@OPS: I'd parry, thrust, parry, twist, thrust, parry.

OPS_Kerst says:
OPS2: I'm really starting to hate these quick background changes.

CNS_Toni says:
::Looks around at the scenery changes, again::

CTO_Marek says:
::Has a real headache::

CSO_Pavielion says:
::Hears the CTO2, sighs, since that is what they just said::

CNS_Toni2 says:
@::Looks at the now restored building:: CNS: And perhaps we should hurry?  This is giving me the creeps and it probably isn't too safe to stick around anyway.

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ ::Looks at the building again as it changes right before they enter::

CTO_Marek2 says:
@CO2: First, a quantum level scan of them and ourselves.  If that doesn't work, a chronoton sweep of our bodies.

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@OPS: Yes, I agree.

CNS_Toni says:
CNS2: This could get dizzy, don't you agree?

CIV_Danforth says:
CIV2: Hmm...pretty convincing.  What's our favorite hobby?

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CO2: And CAPTAIN Mitchell, who gave you orders to beam down to the planet surface?

CEO_Corjet says:
::Hears his tricorder beep yet again, and quickly looks up to the building:: CEO2: This must have some significance.  ::Stops a moment:: Beta quadrant?  ::Continues::  What were you doing out there?

CNS_Toni2 says:
@CNS: The sooner we get out of here, the better.  ::Starts walking towards the Captain::

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@ ::Memories of his father float to the surface:: FCO: Father.

CNS_Toni2 says:
@CNS: Dizzy only begins to describe it.

OPS_Kerst says:
OPS2: Part of me would just like to burn the whole place. It's been nothing but trouble.

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ ::Suspicious again:: CEO: You don't remember? We were thrown there after destroying a Borg subspace conduit.

CNS_Toni says:
::Turns in the direction of CO Mitchell::

FCO_Stricker says:
FCO2: Okay, well what shall we do now?

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@OPS: I should just beam back to my Erie except it's mostly destroyed.

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@<CIV2> ::Finds the ruins of slight interest for a moment ... err, now they are not ruins::  CIV: Studying ancient Earth.

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@CO: No one.  We tried to hail the station and no one responded.  We saw your Erie and a couple of runabouts orbiting here and we investigated.

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ ::Walks over to some odd looking alien fragments:: CEO: Interesting... ::Tricorder beeps, jumps back as it does and giggles::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Stops at the entrance of the building:: CEO2: OH!  ::Thinks a moment as he taps his controls on the tricorder:: We encountered the Borg to but we destroyed that sphere.

CNS_Toni says:
CNS2:  Looks like the CO is also trying to obtain information from, your CO?

OPS_Kerst says:
OPS2: Destroyed? What did you let happen to it?!

CSO_Pavielion says:
::Listens to the conversations, tries to think of a way to correct the timelines::

CNS_Toni2 says:
@::Steps up in front of Captain Mitchell with her double:: CNS: Yes, I think we should break them up.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CO2: You are an imposter!  I would NEVER beam down to a forbidden planet without direct orders from Admiral Ferrone, WHICH by the way, I have.

CIV_Danforth says:
CIV2: Well, it certainly seems like you're me.  What was the last thing you remember happening on the station?

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ ::Looks at his double, shrugs and giggles again:: CEO: Any ideas?

CEO_Corjet says:
::Giggles as he hears his double giggle.  Then blushes and clears his throat:: CEO2: Just a moment, I want to call my Captain.

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@CO: Admiral Ferrone gave you the order to come here?

FCO_Stricker says:
FCO2: Okay, well what shall we do now?

CNS_Toni says:
::Looks at CO Mitchell's::

CSO-Pavielion2 says:
@::Trying to predict the next temporal change::

CTO_Marek2 says:
@CTO2: You want to kill me, please go ahead, temporal messes are so illogical I don't want hear another word about this. ::Puts his phaser back in the uniform::

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@OPS: We engaged the Borg and got flung into the Beta quadrant and back.  There wasn't much I could do.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CO2: Of course he did.  As I said, I would NEVER beam down without orders.

CEO_Corjet says:
*CO* Sir?  Were about to enter the building.  So far I don’t detect anything out of the normal.. ::Shakes his head in confused amazement::

CNS_Toni2 says:
@CO/CO2: Ladies, it would probably be wise to stop bickering.  ::Hopes she got their attention by calling them "Ladies"::

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@<CIV2> CIV: Haven't been back to the station in weeks.

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@::Sternly looks at CNS2::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
*CEO* Acknowledged.

CEO_Corjet says:
CEO2: Well, it seems that we had both encountered the Borg.  Each took a different path from there.

CIV_Danforth says:
CIV2: You haven't?  What was the last time you were at the station?

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@::Scratches head once again:: FCO: Try to prevent our crews from tearing each other apart?

OPS_Kerst says:
OPS: Man, I bet the Captain, err…your Captain had a fit.  Ours just about fawns over that ship.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Turns to the CNS and raises an eyebrow::

CSO_Pavielion says:
::Frowns at CNS2, knows their CNS would never be that rude::

CTO_Marek says:
CTO2: That is not logical, Commander.

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@::Also raises same eyebrow::

CNS_Toni says:
CO: Sirs, wouldn't it be wiser to just figure out what is happen to us all?

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@<CIV2> CIV: Right before the Borg came.

CNS_Toni2 says:
@CO/CO2: Sorry, Captain and Captain, I had to get your attention.

FCO_Stricker says:
FCO2: I'm following you.  You seem to know about this more than I.

CSO-Pavielion2 says:
@CO2: Sir, I may be able to predict the next change.

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@CSO2: Explain?

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CNS: I believe the CSO's are working on that problem, Commander.

CEO_Corjet says:
CEO2: Lets go inside.  ::Enters the building and scans around.  Finds rubble, pieces of broken consoles and equipment:: CEO2: Are you recording this too?

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@FCO: Heh, like I said, I know little to nothing about it.  All I know is that it sounds like our crews are about to start shooting each other.  ::Begins strolling over to the CO’s & CNS'::

Host James says:
Action: The scene changes yet again.  The crew is standing on a broad plain.  The building nearby is fully restored and alien power signatures are being detected from inside.  No other life signs are present.

CIV_Danforth says:
CIV2: Let's go talk about this with the Captains.

CTO_Marek2 says:
@CTO: It is a joke.  Don't you have that concept in your time/reality/whatever?

CSO_Pavielion says:
::Walks over to their CSO::  CSO2: Did you encounter the Borg a short while back?

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ ::Nods:: CEO: Why wouldn't I?  ::Blushes also then waits::

CNS_Toni2 says:
@CO: Sir, perhaps arguing with the other Captain would not be the wisest course of action

CSO-Pavielion2 says:
@CO2: The temporal flux frequency changes just before we .........

CTO_Marek says:
CTO2: I knew you were about to say that.

FCO_Stricker says:
FCO2: Yeah, wait up! ::Follows FCO2::

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@<CIV2> ::Nods, and is about to walk with the CIV back to the Captains when the area changes once again::

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@::Stops in his tracks and looks around::

CSO-Pavielion2 says:
@CO2: See what I mean, Captain?

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ ::Out loud:: Whoa! ::Suddenly surrounded by humming consoles, the throb of power and a tricorder that is going nuts:: CEO: Amazing!

CEO_Corjet says:
*CO* There is alien equipment and consoles here.  Most of them are broken.  ::Walks up to a console and looks at it console as he scans it and then sees it suddenly come to life with power:: WOW!!

CNS_Toni2 says:
@::Looks around and shakes her head::

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@CSO2:  Experience a scene change?  When will the next one take place?

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Looks up as the scenery changes again.  Her tricorder begins beeping and she taps the buttons on it scanning the structure::

OPS_Kerst says:
OPS2: So if you were in the Beta quadrant, how'd you get back?

CNS_Toni says:
::Looks into the eyes of Her CO, recognizes her raised eyebrow::

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@::Hears her tricorder beep too and scans the structure::

CTO_Marek2 says:
@CTO: Really?

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::To HER crew:: All: Spread out and check the building.

CSO-Pavielion2 says:
@CO2: Detecting power signatures.

Host James says:
Action: All the consoles are powered but appear to be in some kind of a standby loop.

CTO_Marek says:
CO: Now I am sure that this is not my double.  He just told me a joke!

OPS_Kerst says:
OPS2: Is it just me or does this building seem to be repairing itself with every change?

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@OPS: We used the rings of planets to send us back.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Moves towards the building:: *CEO* We're coming in, Commander.

CNS_Toni says:
CO: Yes, Sir.

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@::To her crew:: Crew2: Everyone spread out as well.  Make sure this is genuine.

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@::Looks at the consoles, curious:: CEO: Well, do you want to try them or should I? ::Giggles::

CTO_Marek says:
CTO2: Really. ::Raises his right eyebrow::

CNS_Toni2 says:
@CO2: Ma'am? So... who?

CEO_Corjet says:
*CO* The alien equipment has come online, Sir! ::Scans the consoles and equipment with his tricorder set to maximum scans:: I'm not sure but some seem to be on stand by Sir.  I would suggest that you hurry, Sir!

CNS_Toni says:
::Begins walking away from the CO's and CNS2::

CSO_Pavielion says:
::Frowns at being ignored and spreads out, looks back towards his tricorder, heads towards the Captain::

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@::Joins both crews::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
*CEO* Acknowledged.  ::Enters the building and looks for the CEO::

CNS_Toni2 says:
@::Thinks: Same orders. Okay.”   Explores::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Laughs and then sighs:: CEO2: No, don’t touch anything yet.  ::Continues with his scans of the consoles and their systems, trying to figure out how they work::

CSO-Pavielion2 says:
@::Moves away slowly scanning everything that might reveal an answer::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Locates the CEO and his twin:: CEO: Report!

CTO_Marek says:
CTO2: Wait a minute please, Commander.

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@ ::Walks up where the crews are gathering::

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@*CEO2* What else is happening, Commander?

CTO_Marek2 says:
@CO2: This "Marek" is clearly a copy,  He doesn't know anything about humor.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Turns:: CO: Here, Sir, ::Points to the console:: see?

CNS_Toni says:
CNS2: WE should probably just go in the same direction.  Two heads are great in a pinch, right?

CSO_Pavielion says:
CO: Sir, it seems our timelines begin to differ when the Borg attack occurred.  We stayed on the station and fought the Borg off, the other crew seems to have boarded the Erie and chases the sphere into a transwarp conduit.

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@CTO2: Neither do you.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Looks at the console:: CSO: Commander Pavielion?

CEO_Corjet says:
CO: All of a sudden with this last chronoton flux all the systems came online, Sir.  I've been scanning to try to figure out what exactly they are and how they work, nothing yet though.

FCO_Stricker says:
::Follows FCO2 to the gathering::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CSO: How do both crews return to their own timeline?

CSO-Pavielion2 says:
@CO2: They’re in some sort of standby loop.

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ *CO2* My double and I were beginning to scan some rubble which contained alien ruins when everything changed.  ::Giggles::  Suffice it to say, things are humming and running again, whatever it is.

CNS_Toni2 says:
@::Smiles:: CNS: Sounds good to me.  I think the other crewmembers need Valium or something.  Perhaps we should do something about that after this is all over?

OPS_Kerst says:
::Enters building and walks to CEOs and COs::

CSO_Pavielion says:
CO: And by their reports they came back through a worm hole, for all that we still do not know about wormholes this could be the link as to why this is happening.  ::Is trying to piece it together::

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@::Hears CSO's report:: CO: What happened in your time line when the Borg attacked?

OPS_Kerst says:
ALL: At this rate we should expect to see some "natives" real soon.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CO2: That is classified information.

CNS_Toni says:
CNS2: Yes, for those who will accept it, of course.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Stands at attention but cant help but lean down with his tricorder continuing his scans of the alien systems::

CNS_Toni2 says:
@CNS: Of course.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
All: This is quite a situation we have here.  We must be very careful we do not damage the timeline.  We must be certain of how we attempt to correct this error.  ::Wishes Am'Tath were with them, he would know what to do::

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@::Follows OPS1 not wanting his face to walk off with him::

CSO_Pavielion says:
::Scans the consoles and tries to read the writings::

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@ ::Follows the others into the alien building wondering where it's inhabitants are::

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@<CIV2> ::Walking with his duplicate::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Crawls under a console.  Smiles greatly and giggles then tries to stand up and bumps his head:: Self: Ouch! ::Crawls back out::

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@CO: Am'Tath would be a great help right now.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CSO: What if the other Erie crew were to go back through the conduit?

FCO_Stricker says:
FCO2: Where are you going?

CEO_Corjet says:
CO: This one seems to be Chronoton control.

CIV_Danforth says:
CTO: Mr. Marek, what do you think?

CSO-Pavielion2 says:
@CO2: Captain, this console appears to be some sort of chronoton station.

OPS_Kerst says:
OPS2: I think we should be ready for the rightful owners of this place to show up soon.  Don't you, we think?

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Looks at CO2 and raises an eyebrow::

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ ::Raises an eyebrow at his double::

CNS_Toni says:
CNS2: Tell me, in your time line were you ever pursued by three gentlemen at the same time who wanted to date you of course?

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@::Looks back at CO and raises the same eyebrow::

CSO_Pavielion says:
::Hears the CEO::  CO: Agreed, Sir, these consoles somehow control chronoton levels.

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@ FCO: Following the others.  ::Gestures to everyone entering the building::

CNS_Toni2 says:
@::Chuckles:: CNS: Yes, yes I was.

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@OPS: agreed. ::Draws his phaser::

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@::Goes over to CSO2's location:: CSO2: Chronoton station?

FCO_Stricker says:
FCO2: Sure, okay!  ::Follows his double::

CSO_Pavielion says:
CO2: The wormhole is it still open?  The one you came through or has it sealed itself off?

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ ::Traces some feeds from the console:: CO/CEO: It looks like the console feeds some generator or emitter in another part of the building.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
All: Suggestions?  ::Looks at both crews::

CEO_Corjet says:
CSO: Can you figure them out? ::Shakes his head and rubs the bump:: I can't quite figure it out.

OPS_Kerst says:
CO: Well, if we wait long enough the original builder should appear and then maybe they'll tells us how it works.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Turns to his double:: CEO2/CO: Yes, it does.  ::Sighs as he forgot to mention that fact::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CEO2: Can you determine what the generator or emitter is used for?

CSO-Pavielion2 says:
@CO2: Seems to control some type of chronoton field, not quite sure yet.

CTO_Marek says:
CIV: This is a mess but I know for sure that my "double" isn't exactly me.  I just discovered that he actually plays jokes.

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@CSO2: Try to pin it down and don't touch anything unless you're absolutely sure what it is.

CEO_Corjet says:
OPS: I don’t think that would be wise.  Besides, we are running out of time before the next chronoton flux.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
OPS: We do not know for certain when that will be, Commander.  We cannot stay here much longer.  Our orders were to gather the information and leave expediently.

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@<CIV2> ::Attempts to recall intelligence reports on previous temporal events despite the facts that they are usually classified::

CSO-Pavielion2 says:
@CO2: Trying to decipher the operating sequence now, Sir.

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@CSO: We destroyed a transwarp conduit by taking out a junction.

CSO_Pavielion says:
CEO: I suggest trying to get a scan of the writings on the consoles.  Perhaps we will be able to use the universal translator to tell us what all these consoles do.

CNS_Toni2 says:
@CNS: So which three was it for you?

FCO_Stricker says:
CO: I would, Sir, but I'm too curious of my double.  Sorry about that.

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ CO: One moment.  ::Looks at his double and walks to what looks like could be a door::

CTO_Marek2 says:
@CTO: You really don't make jokes? You must be such a dull fellow.

Host James says:
Action: Those that are working on the consoles see that the controls have undergone a random divergence error and are stuck in some kind of a loop.

OPS_Kerst says:
CEO: That's what I mean. At this rate we should go back far enough to a time when the natives were still here. Whether we want to or not, unless we can stop this thing we will meet them.

CNS_Toni says:
::Opens her tricorder to see if it is now functioning properly::

CNS_Toni2 says:
@::Decides to open hers too::

CSO_Pavielion says:
::Begins working on translating the writing on the consoles::

CEO_Corjet says:
CSO: Would you care to?  ::Waves to the back of the building towards the other room:: I'd like to check out those systems.

OPS_Kerst says:
CO/CEO: Can we shut the thing off?

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CO2: We obviously have a large problem.  How do we get you and your crew back to your own timeline?

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ ::Scans the crevice with his tricorder then types a comment.  A latch unclicks as he giggles::

CSO_Pavielion says:
CEO: All right, working on it.

CTO_Marek says:
CTO2: I certainly resent your expressions.  Besides, humor is irrelevant for the Vulcan people, wouldn't you agree on this?

CEO_Corjet says:
CSO: Thanks, Commander.  ::Turns to the CO::  CO: Should I take my double and head back to the power room?

CSO-Pavielion2 says:
@CO2: Captain sequence seems to be in a repeating loop.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Looks at the CSO's::  CEO: Affirmative.

CNS_Toni says:
Well, I kind of really fell hard for XO, but we have not had much chance to pursue things, we’ve e been so busy.

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@CO: Or, how do we get ourselves back together, if this is supposed to be where our timelines converge.

FCO_Stricker says:
::Keeps looking at his double, wondering what it will do::

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@<CIV2> CO: Captain, if I may, who's to say this isn't our timeline and you have not stepped into ours?  This world seems to be a Bridge between two newly formed timelines.  ::From what he heard the others say about the different Borg fights::

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@::Also looks at the CSO’s::

CNS_Toni2 says:
@::Nods:: CNS: Same with me.  I sure miss Corzi though.

CNS_Toni says:
CNS2:  But you know the others really were nice, but one is sort of off, you know!

CSO_Pavielion says:
CO: I am attempting to run this language through the universal translator.  Hopefully I will be able to translate what the consoles are all used for and how to control them.

CNS_Toni says:
::Shakes her tricorder and it pops on::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Follows his double while keeping his tricorder scanning.  Taps at the controls of his Tricorder and links it to his PADD and loads the data to the PADD::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CSO: Acknowledged, Commander.  Perhaps you can get some assistance from your twin?

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@::Nods at CSO2::

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@::Stays alert and scans with his tricorder::

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ ::Taps and gets the door to open, which leads back into a large room dominated by a throbbing, glowing, and loudly humming machine in the middle of the room:: WOW!

CSO-Pavielion2 says:
@CSO: It appears to be stuck in some sort of repeating command.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CIV2: That is a possibility, Commander.

Host James says:
Action: The Universal Translators give the crew a rudimentary understanding of the controls so that it should be possible to correct the errors and merge the two timelines.

CTO_Marek2 says:
@CTO: Not completely. I've found that intelligent humor is an intellectual talent and very hard to master too. I don't find it irrelevant.  It's just like another mental exercise. Of course I don’t feel any joy or happiness except my interest of developing mental abilities.

CNS_Toni says:
CNS2: Well, Corzi.  How sad he had to leave to do what he had to do.

CEO_Corjet says:
CEO2: Looks like you found the door.  ::Enters with his double and smiles::  WOW!!  Look at all that power!!!!

CSO_Pavielion says:
::Looks towards CSO2::  CSO2: Agreed.  ::Looks down at the tricorder as it beeps::

CSO-Pavielion2 says:
@CSO: Looks like you have something with the translator.

CNS_Toni2 says:
@::Can't manage to get her tricorder working and sighs:: CNS: Yeah, what DID he have to do?

CSO_Pavielion says:
CO: Sir, we have a basic dialogue!

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ Everyone: Amazing...

CTO_Marek says:
CTO2: Interesting concept, Commander You got a point there ::He sounds really cynical::

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@CEO2: What do you have, Commander?

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Turns to the CSO:: CSO: Explain, Commander.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Stands there dumbstruck:: CEO2: Wouldn’t I like to have that on the station!

FCO_Stricker says:
::Watches his double::

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ CO2: I think this is the temporal chronotonic generator.

CSO_Pavielion says:
::Transfers program to all other tricorders::  CO: We've been able to translate the basic writing on the consoles.  We should be able to understand what each is used for and how to control it though we will have to proceed with caution.

OPS_Kerst says:
::Worries that if they don't do something soon the original owners will show up and probably not be happy to see them::

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@CEO2: Temporal chonotonic generator?  CSO2: Commander Pavielion, can you take a look at this?

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CSO: Very well, Commander, proceed.

CTO_Marek2 says:
@CTO: I do find cynicism irrelevant, Commander.  It's not logical to say one thing instead of another.  A language's goal is to communicate things, not hide them.

CTO_Marek says:
CIV: I think we will have a visit from Temporal Investigations when Starfleet Command reads our reports.

CSO-Pavielion2 says:
@CSO: We may be able to manipulate it but…..

CNS_Toni says:
CNS2: Well, he transferred to another ship.

CIV_Danforth says:
CTO: I think so, too.

Host James says:
Action: The scene changes again.  Nothing really changes except that there are now humanoid skeletons of aliens lying on the floor.

CIV_Danforth says:
CTO: Boy, that's going to be awful.

CSO-Pavielion2 says:
@CO2: Sir?

CTO_Marek says:
::Starts getting afraid of his double::

CNS_Toni says:
::Holding her tricorder and scanning some bushes and grasses::

OPS_Kerst says:
::Notices skeletons::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Remembers his tricorder and scans all of the equipment inside:: CEO2: Awesome power! ::Sighs:: There's energy readings leaking from the power generator.  ::Walks a bit closer and stops::  I don’t think we want to be in here when they do something with the controls, Commander!

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@::Sees the skeletons::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Sees the skeletal remains of aliens on the floor and moves forward with her tricorder scanning them::

CSO_Pavielion says:
*CEO* Have you found anything?

FCO_Stricker says:
::Keeps looking at his double wondering what it will do::

CNS_Toni2 says:
@::Sighs again:: CNS: Yeah, I wish he had given more notice.  ::Tries hitting her tricorder to get it to work::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Turns to CEO2:: CEO2: I'm heading back to the Captain.

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@CSO2: Can you take a reading on this generator?

OPS_Kerst says:
CO/CO2: Umm….the natives or what's left of them are starting to appear.

CTO_Marek says:
CIV: I can picture the inquiries, Commander.  That certainly will not be polite.

OPS_Kerst says:
::Preps phaser rifle::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
OPS: I can see that, Commander.

CEO_Corjet says:
*CSO* We've found the power room.  There are energy readings coming from the power generator.  Please!  Don’t do anything till we all get out of here.

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@OPS: I can see that too.  You think we're going back in time?

CSO-Pavielion2 says:
@CO2: Aye, I can possibly get a reading from here.

CTO_Marek2 says:
@CIV&CTO2: Well, that's something both timelines have in common.

CSO_Pavielion says:
::Walks over to what seems to be the main control console and uses the Universal Translator to read the controls and their functions::

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ ::Steps out into the control room with the rest of everyone else::

FCO_Stricker says:
::Watches his double::

CSO-Pavielion2 says:
@::Taps alien console:: CSO: Cross your fingers.

OPS_Kerst says:
CO/CO2: I estimate that unless the loop starts over the next shift will have them alive and here with us. And if the loop does start over we may become trapped in it, unable to free ourselves.

CIV_Danforth says:
CTO/CTO2: I'd say you're right.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Mumbles:: Humanoid remains.  ::Looking at the tricorder readouts::

CSO_Pavielion says:
*CEO* we have developed a way of translating the basic writing on the consoles, I transferred the program to all the tricorders in the area, you should be able to get a basic understanding of how to control that generator.

OPS_Kerst says:
CO2: We're going forward, but the planet is going backward around us. Probably in some type of temporal loop.

CTO_Marek says:
::Turns to CTO2:: CTO2: Indeed, Commander.  ::Still feeling a little uncomfortable with this situation. Thinks: Two Marek’s in one single universe it way too much::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Exits the power room and closes the door.  Walks up to his Captain and CSO:: CO/CSO: That power room was designed to not have anyone inside while it is in operation.  There are dangerous levels of radiation coming from the generator.  If you turn it on anyone inside would be fried.

Host James says:
Action: The crew should have knowledge on how to correct the errors and restore the timeline.

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@CO/CO2: I agree with my counterpart, Ma'am, we should get out of here.

CSO-Pavielion2 says:
@CSO: I have power readings from the generator now.

CNS_Toni says:
CNS2: So how have you done with these guys?  You know I'm inclined to not see anyone for a while once this gets straightened out, I'm tired of it all.  I will concentrate on my work.

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ ::Looks at his double after his statement and laughs:: Erie Crew Etouffe.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
OPS: Agreed, however what can we do other than what is already being done?  I would think you would be trying to help the CSO rather than standing there predicting what "doom" will befall us.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Scans the consoles with his tricorder:: CSO: Looks like it.

OPS_Kerst says:
OPS2: At least we agree on something.

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@ ::Confused about this but hey, at least the others have figured it out::

CIV_Danforth says:
CTO: As long as we don't end up stuck here, I'll live with the Temporal Investigations Unit.

CSO_Pavielion says:
CEO: Can we safely seal it off if we need to activate it?

CNS_Toni2 says:
@CNS: I've done okay.  I've had some trouble having some of them come in when I needed to and some weird things have happened but things are pretty good.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Snaps tricorder shut and places it back into her belt.  Walks over to the CSO:: CSO: Report, Commander.

CTO_Marek says:
::Nods to the CIV:: CTO2: I think you will say that CIV remarks are funny, don't you?

CEO_Corjet says:
::Nods:: CSO: It is now.  With the door closed it seems to be designed that way.

CSO-Pavielion2 says:
@CO2: We may be able to merge the timelines but to what outcome I do not know.

CTO_Marek says:
::His words sounds more cynical than ever::

FCO_Stricker says:
FCO2: You confused too?

OPS_Kerst2 says:
@OPS: under different circumstances we would agree on more, I'm sure.

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@CSO2: How?

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@FCO: Yep.

CSO_Pavielion says:
CO: This appears to be the main console and I believe I have been able to translate enough to correct the loop, but we need to make sure the radiation is not a problem when we activate the generator.

FCO_Stricker says:
FCO2: I know myself.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CSO: Very well.  Proceed, Commander.

OPS_Kerst says:
OPS2: Yes.  ::Points towards CSO and CSO2:: Shall we see what we can to help with this infernal machine?

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ ::Looks at the door as it closes:: All: I think it's sealed well enough.

CNS_Toni2 says:
@CNS: What about you?

CEO_Corjet says:
::Walks to the CSO:: CSO: I’ve scanned the room and its sealed properly.  It's been built to contain the radiation, Sir.

FCO_Stricker2 says:
@<CIV2> ::Watches with much interest::

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@CO: Looks like we'll be one woman again.  But I'm wondering what memories we'll have after we combine.

CTO_Marek2 says:
@CTO: Apparently, not only are you cynical but also deaf. I've already explained to you, I don't laugh just find making jokes an intellectual challenge.

CSO_Pavielion says:
CEO: Can you take the side console and monitor the core?  ::Turns towards CSO2::  CSO2: Give me a hand?

CTO_Marek says:
CIV: I think our excellent CEO and CSO and their doubles finally found how to make this device work.

CNS_Toni says:
CNS2: The crew is great but the crew evaluations sometimes get scarce.  They hide on occasion and call it work, but I know better.

CIV_Danforth says:
CTO: Thank goodness!

CNS_Toni says:
::Looking around the building::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CO2: If everything goes as planned, it should not matter.

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ ::Looks at his double:: CEO: Shall we?

CSO-Pavielion2 says:
@CSO: I'm ready when you are.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Scans the main console:: CSO: Aye, ::Heads to the indicated console:: monitoring now.

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@CO: True.

CNS_Toni2 says:
@::Chuckles:: CNS: I know, same with me.

CTO_Marek says:
CTO2: I just find really interesting to make you get angry with me.  That's what I call mind games.  By the way, I like those.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Makes a short prayer to The Prophet as he works::

CEO_Corjet says:
CEO2: Taking care of it, Sir.

FCO_Stricker says:
::Watches his double::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CSO: Commander, are you ready to proceed?

OPS_Kerst says:
::Monitors readings on side console::

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ ::Giggles as his double calls him, Sir::

CEO_Corjet2 says:
@ CEO: Ready! ::Giggles and grins::

CSO-Pavielion2 says:
@CO2: Initiating sequence-restart now.

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@CO: I just hope I'm not beside myself like this again.

CTO_Marek2 says:
@CTO: Poor little creature, you think I'm angry, that's a joke, you're getting into this humor thing, you see?

CSO_Pavielion says:
::Turns towards the console, with CSO2's assistance and attempts to correct the time loop, readjusts the generator and tries to slowly lower the chronoton levels::  CO: trying so now, Sir.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Giggles as he hears his double giggles and then taps a few of the controls balancing the power::

CSO-Pavielion2 says:
@All: Hang on to your backsides.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Raises an eyebrow at CO2 because she would never say something like that::

OPS_Kerst says:
OPS2: Bye, Bye!

CO_Mitchell2 says:
@::Raises an eyebrow back::

CSO-Pavielion2 says:
@::Taps final sequence::

Host James says:
Action: A white flash blinds the crew.  The crew finds themselves on a hot desert plain, sun beating down on their heads, carbon dioxide air filling their lungs.

CEO_Corjet says:
CSO: Looking good. ::Taps at the console, hoping he's doing  it correctly::

CIV_Danforth says:
CIV2: Bye.

OPS_Kerst says:
::Coughs::

CIV_Danforth says:
CIV2: May the Force be with you.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Begins sweating from the heat and sun::  All: Report!

FCO_Stricker says:
::Looks around and wonders where he is::

CNS_Toni says:
::Looks over at CNS2::

CSO_Pavielion says:
CO: We need to get out of here!  ::Gasps for air::

CIV_Danforth says:
CO: Sir, looks like everything is fine here but I'd suggest getting off this planet in a hurry.

CNS_Toni says:
::Starts to gasp for air::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Taps COM badge:: *Mitchell to the USS Erie* Lock onto the crew and beam them up immediately!  ::Chokes and coughs::

Host James says:
Action: The crew is beamed up to the Erie.

CSO_Pavielion says:
::Gasps and falls to the floor, stays for a moment a gets up, dazed::

OPS_Kerst says:
::Gasps::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Stands at the transporter pad still coughing:: ALL: That... ::Coughs:: was close. ::Takes a few deep breaths::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Steps off the transporter pad and looks at the crew to see if they are all okay::

CTO_Marek says:
::Sees himself dematerializing::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
All: Is everyone okay?

OPS_Kerst says:
All: Was that real?

CIV_Danforth says:
::Steps off the pad and checks to make sure everything is where it's supposed to be::

CEO_Corjet says:
CO: Yes, Sir.  ::Clears his throat again::

CNS_Toni says:
CO: Yes, Sir.  ::Steps off the transporter pad::

CSO_Pavielion says:
::Walks towards the turbolift::  CO: I suggest heading to the Bridge so we can scan the area and make sure the timeline has been restored.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CSO: Agreed.

FCO_Stricker says:
CO: Yes, Sir, just a little disorientated!

CIV_Danforth says:
CO: Yes, Sir. 

CTO_Marek says:
::Materializes aboard the Erie:: Self: Wow, what an adventure!

Host CO_Mitchell says:
All: Stations everyone.  FCO: Set course back to Kootenai Station.

Host James says:
