CIV_Danforth says:
CTO: We're down to 44.78 minutes so don't slow us down.

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: Warning klaxons sound in main shuttlebay.

CTO_Marek says:
CIV: Excellent, Commander, excellent. 

XO_Pavielion says:
CO: Though I was inquiring as what to do with the battle cruiser.  Should we simply leave it out there, send for a salvage vessel or destroy it?  Seems like a hazard just floating there.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Goes through each and every system and it's modification for the B`tryn assignment:: Self: So far so good.  ::Sighs wishing it didn't take so long:: There, now the next one.  ::Grabs his equipment and heads over to the next one::

XO_Pavielion says:
::Nods at the MO as he enters::

CTO_Marek says:
CIV: Please continue and finish the drill, I will supervise from this position.  ::Grabs a PADD and links it with the holodeck computer::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
XO: Since Commander Kerst's team has been doing salvage operations out there I think we can just leave it there for now anyway.

OPS_Kerst says:
EO Black: Careful now, I don't think Randy would like you accidentally landing on him.

CIV_Danforth says:
Computer: Computer, continue simulation.  Treat Commander Marek as a non-entity in the simulation.

CEO_Corjet says:
<EO Chad> ::Tells a few of the engineer's in Main Engineering a joke.  They look at him disgustedly and go back to their work:: Engineers: It wasn't that bad was it? ::Sighs and goes back to the MSD::

CIV_Danforth says:
Computer: Computer, on three.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
MO: Mr. Sovok, please have a seat.  ::Motions to an empty chair::

CIV_Danforth says:
Computer: Three, two, one.

CTO_Marek says:
CIV: Just see that Ensign Guido don't miss the shot once again.

Host AGM_Darlene says:
ACTION: The action starts again as the troops continue their drills in the holodeck.

XO_Pavielion says:
::Nods::  CO: Aye, Sir, I will make sure to note its location and send it to the Rylians so they know it is here, as well as the Lincoln.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Looks to the XO:: XO: Commander. Pavielion, please have Commander Marek and Commander Kerst join us.

Host AGM_Darlene says:
ACTION: The shuttle carefully sets down inside the shuttlebay.  As the engines power down the shuttlebay doors close.

OPS_Kerst says:
XO: Kerst to Pavielion, we're back on board now.

CIV_Danforth says:
::Each unit is moving more quickly now and more in tune with each other::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Nods to the XO::

::Downloads the drill log:: Self: Outstanding.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Enters the next shuttlecraft with his engineering team and starts their final manual inspection:: Engineer: Take the drive systems, I'll handle the sensors and everything else.

XO_Pavielion says:
::Nods::  *OPS/CTO* Commander Kerst and Commander Marek, please report to the Captain's Ready Room.

CEO_Corjet says:
<EO Chad> ::Checks the impulse engines once more.  Then has a team go inspect the Reaction Control Systems::

CTO_Marek says:
*XO* On my way, Sir.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Looks to the MO:: MO: Mr. Sovok, please feel free to help yourself to some refreshment.  We will be a few minutes waiting for Commanders Marek and Kerst to join us.

XO_Pavielion says:
*OPS* Acknowledged.  ::Turns to the Captain::  CO: Sir, do you want me to inform the FCO to get underway?

CSO_Taliza says:
::Not really finding anything new to his research on the B'tryn::

MO_Sovok says:
CO: Thank you, Captain but I think I'll just wait.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
XO: Have we received flight clearance from Commander Corjet?

CTO_Marek says:
CIV: It seems you are alone again, Danforth.  Please continue with your outstanding job. We will have a short briefing before our departure.

OPS_Kerst says:
*XO* On my way.  ::Heads for turbolift::

XO_Pavielion says:
CO: Yes, Sir, all repairs are complete.

CTO_Marek says:
::Exits the Holodeck:: Computer: Reestablish security access parameters. 

CIV_Danforth says:
CTO: Good luck at the meeting, Satok.

OPS_Kerst says:
*CEO* I have some new toys for you to look over in the main shuttlebay. It's all that was salvageable from that Battle Cruiser. I'll talk to you more after my meeting with the CO.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
XO: Very well, have the Flight Control Officer set a course to B'tryn and engage warp 6.

CTO_Marek says:
::Hears the CIV as the door closes:: *CIV* Thanks, Danforth. ::Heads to the turbolift::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Finishes his manual inspection of the second shuttle then heads to the last one with his team:: Engineers: I'll take care of the drive systems this time.  You all need to get use to looking over….  ::Looks over as he hears OPS and continues::  looking over the sensors and everything else.  ::Stands aside as his engineer's go to work::

OPS_Kerst says:
Computer: Bridge.

CTO_Marek says:
::Enters the turbolift:: Bridge.

XO_Pavielion says:
::Nods to the Captain::  *FCO Cheka* Lieutenant, please set course for B'tryn and engage at warp six.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
XO: Please have Bailey bring us to yellow alert.

CTO_Marek says:
::After an 8-second trip arrives on the Bridge::

OPS_Kerst says:
::Exits turbolift onto the Bridge, heads for Captain's Ready Room and rings door chime::

CEO_Corjet says:
*OPS* Sure.  ::Giggles a bit as he's in the shuttlebay too:: I'm performing a last minute manual inspection of the shuttles.  Waves out the shuttle window::  I'll look at them as soon as possible.

CNS_Alana says:
::Searching computer data base for anything enlightening about the B’tryn::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Hears the door chime:: Enter.

XO_Pavielion says:
<FCO_Cheka> *XO* Aye, Sir.  ::Lays in the assigned course and engages at warp 6::

OPS_Kerst says:
::Enters the Ready Room and nods to the officers present:: All: Captain, Pavielion, Sovok.

CTO_Marek says:
::Exits the turbolift and goes to meet the Captain::

XO_Pavielion says:
CO: Yes, Sir.  ::Taps COM badge::  *Bailey* Lieutenant, please bring the Erie to yellow alert.

CTO_Marek says:
CO: Reporting as requested, Sir.

MO_Sovok says:
::Nods at Kerst::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Nods to Kerst:: OPS: Have a seat, Commander.  Help yourself to some refreshment.

OPS_Kerst says:
::Nods to Marek as he enters::

CSO_Taliza says:
::Hears the XO's command for travel to B'tryn, prepares the sensors to detect anything along the way::

XO_Pavielion says:
::Nods to the entering officers::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Looks up a Marek as he enters:: CTO: Have a seat, Commander.  Help yourself to some refreshment.

CIV_Danforth says:
::The simulation concludes and Danforth looks at the time::

CEO_Corjet says:
<EO Chad> ::Checks on the status of all the Engineers, one by one.  Making sure they're in place and ready for their next assignment:: *EO Toma*  Ready there Crewman?  ::Gets an acknowledgement and goes on down the line::

Host SM_Darlene says:
<Bailey> *XO* Aye, Sir.  ::Taps the console bringing the ship to yellow alert::

OPS_Kerst says:
::Sits down, after taking a glass of water, wonders if should have got out of his EVA suit first::

CTO_Marek says:
CO: Sir, with your permission? *Bailey* Constant Long-range scans, pattern Delta 5.

CIV_Danforth says:
::As they stand around and look:: All: 44 minutes flat, good job.  We'll take a 15-minute break and see if we can get it down to 43 minutes.  Ensign Neyland, would you please join me?

CTO_Marek says:
CO: Thank you, Captain, a cup of dark Vulcan tea would be perfect now. 

CNS_Alana says:
::Notices the yellow alert status::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Nods to the CTO then looks at Kerst in his EVA suit:: OPS: I take it you have just arrived back on the ship?  ::Motions the CTO to the replicator as she is not a waitress::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Finishes with his manual inspection and sends the flight readiness report to the XO, OPS and FCO too.  Then walks over to the equipment that was salvaged from the B`tryn battle cruiser:: Self: Hmm..  ::Takes out his tricorder and starts scanning::

CTO_Marek says:
<Bailey> *CTO* Aye, Sir.

XO_Pavielion says:
::Hears the CTO, hopes he intends to get the tea from the replicator::

CNS_Alana says:
::Wonders which weapon to arm herself with during the mission::

OPS_Kerst says:
CO: I was literally walking out of the shuttle when the XO called me, Sir, sorry.

CEO_Corjet says:
<EO Chad> ::Sighs and does a little jig as everything’s really ready:: *CEO* Everything and everyone is in place Sir.  ::Smiles:: We're ready for anything Sir!

Host CO_Mitchell says:
OPS: No problem, Mr. Kerst, I was thinking you do not look very comfortable.

CSO_Taliza says:
Bailey: So, uh, Bailey, are you going with us on the rescue mission?

CTO_Marek says:
::Moves to the replicator to get his cup of tea:: Computer: Dark Vulcan tea in a glass cup.

OPS_Kerst says:
CO: These aren't exactly designed for comfortable sitting. ::Grins:: But they do get the job done.

CEO_Corjet says:
*EO Chad* Good work, Chad. ::Kneels down to get a better scan of a certain component:: I'm inspecting some salvaged parts from the battle cruiser.  I'll be here in the shuttlebay.  Randy, out.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Waits for the CTO to sit down::

XO_Pavielion says:
OPS: On that matter, did you find anything of great interest?

CTO_Marek says:
::Goes back to his chair::  CO: I'm glad to report to you that the ESF combat drills are a total success. ::Hands the CO the PADD with the drill log::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Leans forward and takes the PADD from the CTO:: CTO: Excellent.  ::Taps the PADD::

OPS_Kerst says:
XO: We recovered some communications gear and what appear to be, some spare parts for their senor arrays. The outside of that ship might look intact, but the inside has been torn to shreds by some massive internal explosions.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Nods to OPS:: OPS: I am certain Randy will find something useful.  Perhaps something he can modify to suit our needs.

CTO_Marek says:
::Take a sip from his tea:: 

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Looks to the MO:: MO: Very well, Mr. Sovok, you may begin.  ::Leans back in her chair::

XO_Pavielion says:
::Hears the Captain and turns his attention toward the MO nodding to OPS::

MO_Sovok says:
::Takes out the correct PADD and looks around the room:: All: I've formulated a new plan for the distribution of the gas in the B'tryn complex.. ::Taps on his PADD and sends a message to the wall console to display his diagram::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Motions some of his engineer's over and has a piece moved over to the side:: Engineers: I want that piece of equipment guarded.  ::Looks at them and then indicates two of them:: You and you, grab a phaser and guard this equipment with your lives.  ::Says it sternly so they'll know he means business::

CTO_Marek says:
::Watches the console:: MO: Very interesting. ::Raises an eyebrow::

MO_Sovok says:
All: This diagram shows the key places in the distribution of the gas. My plan is for the team to beam in and secure the room if necessary. It is located on the third level of the basement in the main building of the B'tryn complex.

CEO_Corjet says:
<Engineers> ::Grab phasers and move the indicated piece of equipment to a locker and secure it.  Then stand guard over it, wondering what all the fuss is about::

CSO_Taliza says:
<Bailey> CSO: No, Sir.  I have to stay here and help Captain Mitchell coordinate things.

MO_Sovok says:
All: Four air circulation units are used to process the air in the facility.  ::Points to the units on the display::  Only two are running at any given time, so we'd have to use the right ones.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Looks at the wall display as the MO speaks::

XO_Pavielion says:
::Looks over to the panel::

CEO_Corjet says:
<EO Chad> ::Looks over at the MSM and then quickly turns to each main display.  Then goes back to monitoring the ships status:: Self: Looking great.

OPS_Kerst says:
CO: I hope so, it wasn't pretty over there.  Especially when we opened one compartment.  ::Shudders:: Sudden decompression is not a pretty way to die.

CTO_Marek says:
::Raises hand::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Nods to OPS::

CSO_Taliza says:
Bailey: Isn't that uniform a tad hot over your fur?

OPS_Kerst says:
::Watches the MO give his presentation::

XO_Pavielion says:
::Takes a few notes and write a couple questions down for when he finishes::

MO_Sovok says:
All: I propose that the team bring gas generators that store the gas inside of them. Once hooked into the access panels on two of the four circulation units, the gas will spread throughout the facility in under-five minutes. After set up the team would have to make their way to the control room.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Finishes looking over the rest of the salvaged equipment, then walks over to his Engineers.  Then has them move it to an empty alcove.  Has one go and get some special equipment so he can study it::  Engineer: Hurry, we... I don't have much time.  ::Looks over the equipment as he waits::

MO_Sovok says:
<All>: To make sure that once the first two detect the toxin, the second two won't start up.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Nods as the MO explains his plan::

OPS_Kerst says:
::Nods::

CSO_Taliza says:
<Bailey> ::Gives the CSO an angry look:: CSO: If I had a credit for every time some punk asked me that question... ::Realizes the CSO is one grade above him::  Oh, I didn't mean that you were a punk, Sir.

CEO_Corjet says:
<Engineer> ::Quickly exits and comes back with Randy's required equipment, hands it to him and mills about::

MO_Sovok says:
All: As to any plans the Captain has for the team after the gas deployment, I'm sure it can be adapted to accommodate them.  ::Puts his PADD back in his bag and sits down::

MO_Sovok says:
CTO: You had a question?

Host CO_Mitchell says:
MO: Very good, Mr. Sovok.  ::Looks to the others:: All: Questions?

CSO_Taliza says:
Bailey: Quite all right, lieutenant.  Just thinking I would be quite uncomfortable wearing this kind of uniform with the kind of fur you have.  Is it tough being an ursinoid and serving in Starfleet?

CEO_Corjet says:
::Studies the piece of salvage:: Self: Ahh!  Ok!  ::Smiles with satisfaction:: That's how they do it.  ::Giggles to himself then goes back to studying it::

XO_Pavielion says:
CO: Yes Sir, a couple of questions.

CTO_Marek says:
MO: Never mind, Sovok, you just have answered my question.  Interesting concept.  ::Raises an eyebrow again::

OPS_Kerst says:
::Looks to XO::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Nods:: XO: Commander?

MO_Sovok says:
::Nods to the Vulcan:: CTO: Thank you.

CEO_Corjet says:
<EO Chad> ::Let's one of the Assistant Engineer's take over as he takes a minute break, but is just watching how they handle a situation he's simulated for them.  Watches in interest as the assistant handles it perfectly::

XO_Pavielion says:
::Turns to the MO::  MO: have you checked with the CSO to make sure you can beam through all three levels of the compound?

Host AGM_Darlene says:
ACTION: Neyland, Paige and Ouse enter the Officer’s Lounge and sit down at a table.

CSO_Taliza says:
<Bailey> CSO: I manage.  I've been serving with Captain Mitchell since she was CTO of the Comanche.

CSO_Taliza says:
Bailey: Comanche?  Isn't that the Don Johnson now?

MO_Sovok says:
XO: No, Sir, I haven't had the time.  But everything passed the first level has minimal security so I imagine that if we had to travel from the second or first level of the basement, it could be done but no, Sir, I haven't.

XO_Pavielion says:
::Nods::  MO: Also, what is you plan for neutralizing the guards inside the room, we are not completely sure how many personnel work in there.

CIV_Danforth says:
All: Report.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Stands up:: *CO/XO* Sirs?  I just found one of the B`tryn's ship transponders from the salvaged equipment.  It looks like their transponders are a bit more complex than we thought.   But with replicating this one I can easily refit our shuttles with exact transponder replicas that the B`tryn use. ::Smiles as he's already ordered the parts::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Listens as the XO asks his questions then turns to OPS:: OPS: Do you have a plan to neutralize the occupants of the control room?

MO_Sovok says:
XO: I expect very minimal resistance but just to be sure, we will have the element of surprise and phaser rifles, if there is any resistance, that is.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
*CEO* Excellent, Commander, please make the modifications and test thoroughly.  I will be down to observe shortly.

XO_Pavielion says:
*CEO* Acknowledged, we will get back with you on that.

OPS_Kerst says:
XO/MO: If I may answer that, with a surprise beam in then phaser fire to suppress any guards on site.

CEO_Corjet says:
<Engineer>::Looks to Randy with a smile as she figures out how useful that can be.  Then goes over to the salvaged equipment looking at it more than just junk::

CNS_Alana says:
*CMO* I have been doing the meditations we spoke of how have you been doing with yours?

CIV_Danforth says:
<Paige>: CIV: Well, Sir, Diaz is the best sharpshooter I've seen but she's bad about watching her back.  Guido has a lot of enthusiasm but walks heavy like a truck.  Munster is working too fast but overall the troops will get the job done in plenty of time.

CTO_Marek says:
::Interrupts:: All: Considering what Commander Pavielion suggested, the assault team will not have a second chance.

CEO_Corjet says:
*XO/CO* Aye, Sirs.  ::Smiles as the Engineer's walk in with the necessary parts::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Looks at OPS:: OPS: Would not that be a bit noisy?

OPS_Kerst says:
ALL: I plan to break the group down into smaller pairs with specific targets; 2 to neutralize the control room; another to cover the elevator and XO Sovok to distribute the gas.

CIV_Danforth says:
<Neyland>: CIV: On the field, the troops are working better and better.  They are working like a team and are very organized.  We could still probably improve time by 30 seconds.

MO_Sovok says:
CO: Who would know? It's three levels below the surface and they would have no chance to communicate.

CMO_Tae says:
::Thinks for a minute::  *CNS* Just fine, Counselor.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Motions all of the Engineer's in the shuttlebay over:: Engineers: On the double!!  ::Quickly lays out the plans for what each of them are to do then starts assisting:: This should only take us 5 minutes.  I'd like it done in 4 please. ::Smiles knowing they can::

OPS_Kerst says:
ALL: Also my team will be wearing breathing gear, so we will also set off gas grenades right after beam in to help neutralize any resistance.

CSO_Taliza says:
<Bailey> CSO: Aye, Sir.  At the time I was there, Ambassador John Sea was the Captain and our Captain hung out with the Scorpius' current XO when he was the CEO there along with the CSO and operations officer there too.  I think their names were VanSickle, Rachmoninoff and Hall.  Hall is now the Captain of the Claymore.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Nods::

OPS_Kerst says:
CO: If we can gas everybody quickly enough, initial noise will not be a problem.

CIV_Danforth says:
<Ouse>: CIV: The troops are all in good health.  I've been monitoring their bio signs and all of them are healthy as oxen.

CTO_Marek says:
OPS: I would advise against that.  Remember that you will be dealing with an uncertain number of guards.

MO_Sovok says:
OPS: Exactly my thinking.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Nods then turns to the MO:: MO: Exactly how large are these gas generators?

CIV_Danforth says:
All: Good job, team.  I want the Captain to be proud of this group.  Let's get this job done.  One drink on me.

XO_Pavielion says:
All: From how it sounds we will need to do this all quickly and simultaneously. It will not take long for them to figure out something has happened.

OPS_Kerst says:
MO: Along with the main gas generators, we will also need several smaller "gas grenades". After we delivery the gas, we will have to do floor by floor sweep to ensure total neutralization.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
XO: Agreed.

MO_Sovok says:
CO: Small enough to be able to be carried by a single person, but also large enough to distribute the gas throughout the whole building.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Works as fast and hard as he can, hoping to spur his Engineers to their peak performance.  Smiles with satisfaction as they've done it in 3 minutes and 40 seconds.  Goes over each one and manually inspects them::

CSO_Taliza says:
::Looks at personnel histories quickly:: Bailey: Uh, I think you may have mixed a couple of officers.  Captain Hall was on the Elara when Captain Mitchell, Commander VanSickle and Lieutenant Commander Rachmanoff were there.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Nods to the MO:: All: Perhaps we should hold a couple of simulations in the holodeck before we arrive?

MO_Sovok says:
::Nods:: CO: With varying levels of resistance.

OPS_Kerst says:
XO: Actually, they first they'll know is when they start to fall asleep. Assuming my group goes slightly ahead of the other two, timing wise.

CSO_Taliza says:
<Bailey> ::Slaps head::

CEO_Corjet says:
<EO Chad> ::Walks over to the Assistant Engineer, looking over her shoulder and smiles as she's doing great.  Then relieves her and starts back to work::

CSO_Taliza says:
::Chuckles at the bear::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
XO: What do you think about holding a couple of simulations on the holodeck, Commander?

XO_Pavielion says:
::Nods::  CO: Would not hurt.  ::Chuckles::  If we can pry it away from Commander Danforth.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Nods and shakes her head::

OPS_Kerst says:
CO: Sir, I believe my group should be firmly in control of the main compound building before the fighters are blown. There's no way to hide something like that.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Finds a minor interface problem with one of the shuttles and realigns it’s transceiver protocols:: Self: Hmm..  ::Looks it over again:: It shouldn't have done that.  ::Looks to one of the engineers:: What do you think?

MO_Sovok says:
CO: I agree.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Stands:: All: Very well.  XO: Please arrange to have Lieutenant Commander Danforth vacate the holodeck and then program the simulation into the computer.  Then arrange for a time when the teams will undergo the simulations.

OPS_Kerst says:
::Stands::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
OPS: Actually the vessels on the landing grid will be destroyed after the teams beam back to the shuttles.

XO_Pavielion says:
::Stands also::  CO: Yes, Sir, the simulation should not take more then ten to fifteen minutes to properly program.

CEO_Corjet says:
<Engineer> ::Nods and looks at the console, then to Randy's tricorder:: CEO: I agree.  Maybe this transceiver is just a bit old?  ::Looks over at the transceiver's service log::  See?  ::Turns around and tells another engineer to go get one from parts:: We'll have it replaced in about 5 minutes, Sir. ::Smiles knowing that they can do it::

OPS_Kerst says:
::Nods::

MO_Sovok says:
CO: I do however believe my plan has a large margin for success. I really don't think they will expect an attack on their air filtration system.

CSO_Taliza says:
Bailey: How come you followed the Captain throughout her postings?

CEO_Corjet says:
::Nods and heads over to the last shuttle for manual inspection.  Sees the engineer come back with a replacement then looks at his PADD and times them:: Self: Let's see how they do.  ::Inspects the last shuttle's transceiver::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
MO: Agreed, Ensign, good work.

XO_Pavielion says:
::Nods:: CO: Of course, I will begin programming the computer.

MO_Sovok says:
::Nods:: CO: Thank you, Sir.  Should I oversee the holodeck performance?

CSO_Taliza says:
<Bailey> CSO: I trust her and feel I have a lot to learn from her that I really can't learn from anyone else.

CEO_Corjet says:
<Engineer> ::Walks into the shuttle:: CEO: Done and final inspection is complete, Sir and I'm happy to report that everything's fine and dandy, Sir. ::Smiles::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
MO: Please speak to Commander Pavielion regarding that, Ensign.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Looks to the officers:: All: If you will excuse me, I am headed for the shuttlebay to inspect the shuttle modifications.  Dismissed!  ::Moves around to the front of the desk, exits the Ready Room and enters the turbolift:: Shuttlebay 1.

OPS_Kerst says:
MO: Of course, you'll be part of the holodeck training. You get to hook up your generators while under fire.

CSO_Taliza says:
::Looks at Bailey's service record:: Bailey: I see you do have a lot to learn, like balance.

CSO_Taliza says:
<Bailey> ::Growls low at the CSO::

MO_Sovok says:
CO: Understood. ::Turns to Ops and grins:: OPS: Understood.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Looks at the engineer as he's just finished, puts on a dissatisfied face:: Engineer: I'll see about that.  ::Walks over to the shuttle and inspect it.  Making grunts as the other engineer's watch::

CSO_Taliza says:
Bailey: Easy, big guy!  Easy!

XO_Pavielion says:
::Turns to exit the ready room, walks out and boards a turbolift::  TL: Deck 8  ::Taps COM badge::  *CIV* Commander, please clear the holodecks.  I am on my way to prepare a simulation for the crew of the upcoming away mission

CEO_Corjet says:
<EO Chad> ::Looks over the life support systems::

CIV_Danforth says:
::Shakes his head thinking the crew could use at least one more simulation:: XO: Aye, Sir.  We'll move to holodeck 2.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Exits the turbolift and walks a short distance to shuttlebay 1 and enters::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Looks back to the engineer as he's finished inspecting it:: EO: Good work. ::Smiles and then cleans up and exits the shuttle with them:: The Captain should be here any minute for final inspection.  Stand ready please. ::Smiles as they all stand at attention as the CO enters the shuttlebay::

OPS_Kerst says:
MO; We need to make sure that everyone on the team has a breather, with all that gas being pumped I don't want our team being put to sleep also.

CEO_Corjet says:
ALL: Captain on deck!

MO_Sovok says:
::Rides the TL with the XO::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Doesn't look to his engineers, but knows they're all ready standing at attention:: CO: Hello, Captain.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Grins slightly as the officers come to attention:: All in Shuttlebay: At ease.  ::Walks over to Commander Corjet and nods:: CEO: Commander.

CIV_Danforth says:
*Assault Team* Alright crew, breaks over.  Let's go to holodeck 2.  I know it's not as pretty, but we'll make do.

XO_Pavielion says:
MO: Ensign, you can program into the computer the information on the ventilation system  *CSO* Lieutenant, can you please report to deck eight, the holodecks.

OPS_Kerst says:
MO: And small… ::Gestures with hands:: grenades filled with the gas we can point deliver in case we run into an area not affected.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Smiles for his Captain:: CO: All modifications are complete and the transceivers are all working to proper specifications, Sir. ::Hands her his PADD::

CSO_Taliza says:
*XO* Aye, Sir.  Bailey: Gotta go!

MO_Sovok says:
*OPS* Understood. I'll replicate some.

CSO_Taliza says:
::Gives the science station to one of the relief SOs and enters turbolift:: Computer: Holodeck 1.

CIV_Danforth says:
*All* Change of plans.  Line up outside the holodeck and stand at attention.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Takes the PADD from the CEO and taps the button, reading the display::  CEO: Excellent, Commander.  Please extend my congratulations to your crew for a job well done.  Would you care to show me the shuttle modifications?

CEO_Corjet says:
<EO Chad> *CEO* All systems are fully operational, Sir, just putting in my report to you.

CSO_Taliza says:
<Bailey> ::Rolls eyes and returns to work::

CIV_Danforth says:
::Goes to the holodeck::

MO_Sovok says:
XO: Understood, Sir.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Smiles:: *EO* Aye Chad.  Good work.  ::Motions to the front of the shuttle::

XO_Pavielion says:
::Exits the turbolift and walks down the corridor::

MO_Sovok says:
::Follows the XO::

CSO_Taliza says:
::Exits the turbolift and heads to Holodeck 1::

OPS_Kerst says:
::Tags behind XO and MO wondering when he'll get a chance to get out of the EVA suit::

CIV_Danforth says:
::Watches as the crew lines up and stands at attention::

CEO_Corjet says:
CO: Here are the B`tryn transceivers.  I mounted them on the regulation Starfleet transceiver.  ::Smiles:: Looks like it was made to go there, Sir. ::Giggles, then stifles it::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Leans over and looks at the modified transceivers closely and nods::

XO_Pavielion says:
::Looks at OPS::  OPS: Commander, if you wish you can use one of the empty crew quarters on this deck to change.

CIV_Danforth says:
All: Stand at ease until the command crew gets here.

CIV_Danforth says:
::The troops engage in idle talk until the command crew makes it to the holodeck::

XO_Pavielion says:
::Nears the holodecks and notices the ESF team and Lieutenant Commander Danforth::  CIV: Report on their progress, Commander?

CIV_Danforth says:
Troops: Atten-hut!  ::Troops stand at attention::

OPS_Kerst says:
XO: Thank you, Sir I'll be back in a few minutes.

OPS_Kerst says:
::Heads for nearest locker room to change out of the EVA suit::

CSO_Taliza says:
::Sees the CIV:: CIV: Commander.  ::Stands at attention when he hears it::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Straightens up and taps the PADD making a few notes as she waits for the CEO to show her another modification::

CEO_Corjet says:
CO: As you'll undoubtedly ask...they'll be manually activated so if the B`Tryn sense the shuttles, they can turn them on to simulate a B`Tryn ship. ::Motions inside the cabin:: The rest of the other modifications are mostly inside, Sir.

XO_Pavielion says:
::Nods to OPS, glances to MO quickly::  MO: Please enter holodeck one and begin programming the computer with the information you have obtained.

MO_Sovok says:
XO: Aye, Sir.  ::Enters holodeck 1 and begins programming the Computer with the B'tryn ventilation information::

CIV_Danforth says:
XO: Sir, the troops are ready.  We've knocked down the assault time to 43 minutes.  We're ready.

OPS_Kerst says:
::Enters locker room and get out of EVA suit::

XO_Pavielion says:
All: At ease.  ::Looks to the ESF::  CIV: You can send them on break for the next twenty minutes.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Nods and taps her PADD then enters the shuttle::

OPS_Kerst says:
::Leaves locker room and goes to join the rest of the team::

CSO_Taliza says:
::Goes at ease to the XO's order, wondering why he even went to attention::

CNS_Alana says:
::Decides to go to Holodeck 1 to watch simulation, even thought she was not called::

CIV_Danforth says:
All Troops: Dismissed!  Report back here in 20 minutes. And when I say 20 I mean 20!

CTO_Marek says:
::Arrives to the Holodeck:: 

CSO_Taliza says:
XO: Sir, reporting as ordered.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Lets the Captain enter first.  Then quickly moves to the console and brings up the new sensor and screen displays:: CO: As you can plainly see these aren't regulation.  They're modified for this mission.  They'll assist the pilot's in keeping hidden from the B`Tryn sensors.  ::Pauses a bit::  I just thought of something...Maybe...

XO_Pavielion says:
CSO: Please enter holodeck one and program the information over the B'tryn planetary and compound defenses into the computer, Lieutenant.

CSO_Taliza says:
XO: Aye, Sir.  Computer: Open holodeck doors.

CTO_Marek says:
::Nods to the CIV:: CIV: Danforth, give me a brief report on the simulation, please.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
::Nods and inspects the new console configurations, raising an eyebrow:: CEO: Interesting.  ::Looks over the consoles::

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: The holodeck doors open.

CSO_Taliza says:
::Enters holodeck and programs the B'tryn landscape from library files::

MO_Sovok says:
::Finishes:: XO: Sir, I finished the programming.

CEO_Corjet says:
CO:  Maybe we can inform the shuttle pilots to have them simulate bad ship transceivers by turning them off and on in case they do get detected.. That'll make it seem like they're really having problems. ::Nods and is about to add the modification::  I have the rest of the shuttles systems the same way.  Look like they're having problems.

CIV_Danforth says:
CTO: I think they are really good.  I'm not worried at all...well...as "not worried" as I can be.

XO_Pavielion says:
CIV: I hope your team realizes that this is a stealth operation, one that must be performed quickly and quietly, no room for showing off.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CEO: Excellent idea, Commander.  ::Walks around looking at all the consoles::

CSO_Taliza says:
XO: Programming complete.

XO_Pavielion says:
MO: Excellent then please program the B'tryn physiology into the computer.  I want this as real as possible.

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CEO: Have you instructed the pilots on how to use these new modifications?

CTO_Marek says:
::Interrupts:: XO: They are an Elite Force, Commander.  They are trained for this kind of operation, Sir.

MO_Sovok says:
::Nods and begins the Programming::

CIV_Danforth says:
XO: They are ready, Commander, they know their duty well.  I have every faith in them.  I'd put my life in their hands.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Quickly modifies the transponders to intermittently send their signals, simulating a broken transceiver then quickly tests it and smiles:: CO: There,  that's about it unless someone comes up with something else.  ::Turns to the CO:: Yes, except for the transceivers, Sir.  ::Frowns a bit::

CIV_Danforth says:
XO: In fact, I am.

XO_Pavielion says:
CSO: Did you get the planetary defenses as well?  The detection grid, etc?

CEO_Corjet says:
::Motions to one of his engineers::

CIV_Danforth says:
Paige: Ensign, show the XO the latest results.

OPS_Kerst says:
CIV: Yeah but its not just your life is it?  ::Then grins::

CSO_Taliza says:
XO: Aye, Sir, everything from the library.

CEO_Corjet says:
<EO Chad> ::Starts his systems inspection.  Inspecting each and every engineer's work as they work on each main console::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CEO: I see.  Well, see to it they are well versed in the modifications.  We cannot have any mishaps.  I believe the XO is having a couple of mission simulations in the holodeck, Commander.  You should proceed there and join the testing.

XO_Pavielion says:
CIV: Though the question is would you put the life of this crew and this ship into their hands?  That is what I am concerned about.

CIV_Danforth says:
OPS: ::Grins:: Ah, you're just nervous because you're in charge of the 3rd assault team.

MO_Sovok says:
XO: I'm Finished, Sir.

CIV_Danforth says:
XO: I'd do it twice, Commander.

XO_Pavielion says:
CSO/MO: Acknowledged then please gather the gear you will need for this simulation and report back here.

XO_Pavielion says:
*Shipwide* All staff participating in the away mission are to report to holodeck one within twenty minutes.  We will then commence the simulations.

MO_Sovok says:
XO: All the gear I need, can be holo-graphically generated, Sir.  Self: Let's hope this works.

CTO_Marek says:
CIV: I think it's time to have our last briefing before the mission just to be sure we have everything set up.

XO_Pavielion says:
MO: It will give you an opportunity to make sure your real equipment is functional.  Please use the real equipment, except weapons of and do not use real gas, please.

CIV_Danforth says:
CTO: You got it, Satok.

MO_Sovok says:
::Grins:: XO: Understood, Sir.  No real gas.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Smiles and nods:: CO: Aye, Sir.  ::Turns and is about to leave but turns back:: Now?

CMO_Tae says:
::Hears the COM and walks out of Sickbay, heading for the turbolift::

CEO_Corjet says:
<Engineer> ::Moves towards the CEO, but pauses as he turns back to the Captain::

XO_Pavielion says:
::Enters holodeck one and assists with preparing the computer for the simulation::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
CEO: Affirmative, Commander.  ::Turns and exits the shuttle quite satisfied with the shuttle modifications, then nods to the engineers as she exits the shuttlebay::

Host CO_Mitchell says:
