Host SM_Darlene says:
Prelude: Last time on ACTD Kootenai Station….

After a briefing where the crew gave their views on whether or not to send the Challenger II crew back through the anomaly, Captain Pavielion decided it was better if they send the shuttle back without it's crew.

CSO Taliza opposed to the Captain's decision has filed an official complaint to Starfleet Command.

Captain Lofton, clearing opposed to not being sent back to his own timeline is heading to Sickbay to be there when his crew is taken out of the stasis chambers.

The crew is now making preparations to create a stable temporal anomaly and send the empty shuttle back to August 10, 2010 where as history records it will crash on a small moon moments after reappearing on Earth's sensors.

Capt_Lofton says:
::Not looking in her direction, he wants to hold onto some of the anger still::  CNS: The only thing I can tell them, the truth.  They deserve that.

CSO_Taliza says:
::Starts to engage automatic fire suppression protocols::

CMO_Sovok says:
::Walks over to the newly materialized CEO and begins the simple procedure to reverse the minimal damage done by the fire and the smoke::

Host CO_Pavielion says:
*EO Jo*: Once the fire is out and those injured are getting treatment, I want a damage report.

CNS_Alana says:
*OPS*: Have you assigned quarters for Captain Lofton yet and where is it?

OPS_Spicer says:
::Activates force fields in shuttle bay to prevent fire from spreading::

Host CO_Pavielion says:
::Turns around and places his PADD on his desktop, activates his COM panel::  *CMO*: Lieutenant, what is the status of our guests?

OPS_Spicer says:
*CNS*: Yes, I have Alana. They are assigned quarters on level 12 Gamma 13, 15, and 17. They have a nice view of space. If they are not acceptable let me know.

CSO_Taliza says:
::Watches the fire suppression system knock down the fire around Challenger II::

CNS_Alana says:
::As the turbolift opens, she steps in  and directs it to Sickbay::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Finds himself in Sickbay, not really knowing what's happened to him:
Rolls over onto his side, bending over as he coughs and chokes::

Capt_Lofton says:
::Follows the CNS into the turbolift::

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: The fire in shuttle bay 2 is suppressed.  Damage is minimal.  Captain Lofton along with the CNS and TO enter Sickbay.

CNS_Alana says:
Lofton: Would you care to have me talk to them with you?  ::Exits turbolift and walks into Sickbay::

TO_Rr’Vellan says:
::Strides into Sickbay after Lofton::
 
Capt_Lofton says:
CNS: Frankly, ::Turns to the CNS:: no.  I'll talk to them alone.

CMO_Sovok says:
::Glances over at them and smiles slightly at the TO::

TO_Rr’Vellan says:
::Smiles back at the CMO, then resumes her usual stoic look::

OPS_Spicer says:
::Lowers the force fields in the shuttlebay::

CNS_Alana says:
::Looks back at TO and shrugs her shoulders::

CSO_Taliza says:
OPS: Has everyone been beamed out of Shuttlebay 2?

OPS_Spicer says:
CSO: That's a positive, Sir.

Capt_Lofton says:
::Moves towards his crew in the stasis pods::

CNS_Alana says:
Lofton: As you wish, Sir.  The quarters for yourself and your crew are ready. After you have had time with your crew, we can guide you there.

CEO_Corjet says:
<EO Jo> ::Coordinates the efforts to clean her up and find out what happened::

CMO_Sovok says:
::Finishes the simple procedure and injects a hypo to wake Randy up:: CEO: Randy, you feeling better?

TO_Rr’Vellan says:
::Narrows her eyes at Lofton:: CNS: You sure this is wise, Sir? You know how he reacted to the Captain's decision.

Capt_Lofton says:
::After looking at his sleeping crew for a moment, he turns to the CNS::  CNS: Wake them up.

CNS_Alana says:
::Stepping aside while Lofton walks over to his crew members::

CSO_Taliza says:
*CO*: Sir, automatic fire suppression running in the shuttlebay.  I hope we can save the shuttle.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Looks around and feels funny:: CMO: Who? What? ::Blinks his eyes quickly as they're still burning a bit and irritated, but the effects are quickly wearing off:: Oh my...

CNS_Alana says:
TO: Well, what else can we do, I'm sure he feels terrible for all of them, let's give him a little time alone with them.

Host CO_Pavielion says:
*CSO*: Acknowledged, Lieutenant.  What are the casualties?

CMO_Sovok says:
CEO: You'll be fine. In fact, I'm not even going to keep you. You're free to go.

OPS_Spicer says:
::Ensures that all ships currently docked remain so till the station stands down from isolation protocol::

Host CO_Pavielion says:
::Thinks for a moment longer::  *EO Jo*: Also, besides the damage report, I want to know how the fire started.

CEO_Corjet says:
<EO Jo> ::Runs over to the clean up crew:: Crew: Clean up the mess in there... But make sure not to wipe any evidence away.  I need to know what happened and need to get that.. ::Looks at it:: shuttle fixed ASAP.

CSO_Taliza says:
*CO*: Several injuries due to smoke inhalation, including Commander Corjet.

CNS_Alana says:
TO: Keep an eye on him though, it might be wise to get another security officer in here for the walk to their quarters.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Smiles:: CMO: What was that? ::Giggles:: Can I have another?

TO_Rr’Vellan says:
CNS: I understand, but if he starts anything…. ::Low growl::

Host CO_Pavielion says:
*CSO*: Acknowledged, organize damage control and have repairs begun immediately.

CMO_Sovok says:
::Taps his COM badge again:: *CO*:, Sir, I'm unoccupied now. Commander Corjet had an accident but he's fine. I'm ready to wake up the crewmembers on your mark, Sir. ::Turns to Randy:: CEO: Another what?

CEO_Corjet says:
<EO Jo> ::Looks over to his assistant:: *CO*: Aye, Sir.  Jo, out.

CSO_Taliza says:
*CO*: It sounds like Corjet's staff is already on that, Sir.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Blushes and wipes his eyes:: CMO: Nothing, Sir. ::Grins:: I need to clean up a bit. ::Looks at his hands and see they're covered in dark stuff::

CNS_Alana says:
::Turns and sets on a stool not far from the stasis pods::

CMO_Sovok says:
::Nods:: CEO: Try not to get lit on fire again, Randy. ::Grins::

Host CO_Pavielion says:
*CMO*: Good, Lieutenant.  Make sure security is present, along with Captain Lofton and Lieutenant. Torez.  ::Contacts the CNS::  *CNS*: Lieutenant, I am ordering the other people awoken, please oversee the process and see that it runs smoothly.  Contact me if it gets out of hand.

CEO_Corjet says:
<EO Jo> ::Walks over to the Challenger II and walks in:: ALL: Fire out? ::Watches as the fire control team start to exit and report that the fire is out:: Okay.  ::Turns and waves the clean up crew to come in::

CMO_Sovok says:
*CO*: Understood, Sir, Sovok, out.

CNS_Alana says:
::Wondering what all the commotion is about with CEO in Sickbay::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Laughs and shakes his head:: CMO: It wasn't my intension.  ::Sighs and walks over to a relief station to clean himself up::

TO_Rr’Vellan says:
::Twitches her ears and flexes her paw on the handle of her phaser::

Capt_Lofton says:
::Waits for the pods to be opened::

CMO_Sovok says:
::Walks over to the TO and the CNS::

Host CO_Pavielion says:
::Walks to the corner of his Ready Room, stoops down and looks at the sparkling glass on the floor::

CEO_Corjet says:
<EO Jo> ::Watches as the clean up crew start to clean up all the fire retardant foam then starts scanning the Challenger II's systems:: Self: Hmm... Interesting.  These systems seemed fine before the fire. ::Checks the logs on the previous scans of the shuttle::

CNS_Alana says:
*CO*: I am right here, Sir, I have asked for additional security once we leave Sickbay for their quarters, but I don't want to frighten them so they will be waiting outside Sickbay.  ::Looks up as CMO comes by::

OPS_Spicer says:
<Capt. Pordok> COM: OPS: What is going on?  Why won't security let me leave?  I have a cargo to deliver and it's costing me to stay here.

TO_Rr’Vellan says:
::Flicks one ear towards the CMO and half smiles::

Capt_Lofton says:
::Frustrated at having to wait so long, he starts pacing about the area::

CMO_Sovok says:
::Catches the TO's smile and smiles back:: TO/CNS: We're ready to wake up the rest of them.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Comes out of the relief station, looking a bit cleaner and no worse for the wear.  Nods to the CMO and smiles at the TO and CNS as he walks out of Sickbay::

Host CO_Pavielion says:
*CNS*: Excellent, Lieutenant.  Explain the situation to them, but assure them that we will not leave them high and dry.  We will do everything within our power to assist them in this new timeline.

OPS_Spicer says:
COM: Capt. Pordok: I understand that Captain. However, we are currently having technical difficulties. Please be patient. We will get everyone out as quickly as is possible.

Capt_Lofton says:
::Hearing the CMO, he turns suddenly:: CMO: Finally, someone who can get something done around here.

CNS_Alana says:
*CO*: Acknowledged!

CSO_Taliza says:
*CO*: Sir, did you want to see me?

OPS_Spicer says:
<Capt. Pordok> COM: OPS: That is unacceptable. I demand clearance to leave at once!

CMO_Sovok says:
::Looks at Lofton:: Lofton: What do you need, Captain?

CEO_Corjet says:
<EO Jo> ::Walks over to the consoles of the Challenger II.  He intensifies his scans to make sure what he's reading is correct:: Self: Oh my, I don't think they're going to like this. ::Moves out of the way of the clean up crew and heads out of the shuttle::

Capt_Lofton says:
CMO: My crew.

CNS_Alana says:
CMO: Well, let's get this over with it has to be done.

CMO_Sovok says:
Lofton: They will be with you shortly.

CEO_Corjet says:
*EO Jo*: How are things going in there? ::Enters the turbolift::

OPS_Spicer says:
COM: Capt Pordok: I apologize, Captain. I cannot authorize you to leave as of yet.  Perhaps I can have Ensign Rr’Vellan explain matters to you more fully.

CNS_Alana says:
Lofton: Once they wake up, it would be best if you don't startle them all at once with the good news.

CMO_Sovok says:
::Looks to the TO to help him with some of the pods and points out the single button that needs to be pressed to finish the shutdown sequence::

Capt_Lofton says:
CNS: Just let us have someplace private to speak.  I think I know what my crew can or cannot handle.

TO_Rr’Vellan says:
::Strides across the room, keeping her eye on Lofton and pushes the button the CMO indicated::

CNS_Alana says:
CMO: Perhaps one of them at a time then we could talk to them slowly.

Host CO_Pavielion says:
::Uses his hand to sweep the fragile glass pieces into a dustpan::

CEO_Corjet says:
<EO Jo> ::Sighs and taps on his COM badge:: *CEO*: Sir?  The fire started by a lose wire.  Somehow it shorted and overloaded the shuttles flight control computer.  ::Looks over the repair time estimates:: Sir?  It'll be an hour to get her repaired at the very least.  I've got the clean up crew in the shuttle cleaning her up.

CMO_Sovok says:
::Nods:: CNS: That sounds like a better idea.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Sighs and shakes his head:: *EO Jo*: Anything else?

CMO_Sovok says:
Lofton: Which one first, Captain?

OPS_Spicer says:
<Capt Pordok> COM: OPS: That.. that... cat-beast?!?  No thank you!  I have heard enough about that one already.  ::Sighs:: Very well, I will wait but I want to lodge a formal complaint.

Capt_Lofton says:
CNS: No, I want them both awakened at the same time.  

Capt_Lofton says:
CNS: They will need each other for support and it will be easier that way.

CNS_Alana says:
::Looks to CMO after Lofton makes statement::

OPS_Spicer says:
::Grins:: COM: Capt Pordok: Understood, Captain.

CMO_Sovok says:
::Nods:: All: Alright.. Lets not change our minds again. ::Grins and presses the buttons on the pods::

CSO_Taliza says:
*CO*: Captain, it seems there was a short in one of Challenger II's systems that caused the fire.

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: The CMO and TO deactivate the stasis chambers and the occupants begin to wake up.

CEO_Corjet says:
<EO Jo> ::Nods to himself:: *CEO*: Replication teams are already starting to manufacture the parts.  It's mostly with the pulling out of the damaged components and then replacing them that will take most of the time, as soon as the clean up crew.  ::Pauses as he sees them exit and wave to him:: Starting to extract the burned out components, Sir.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Exits the turbolift and heads to the shuttlebay:: *EO Jo*: Good work, Ensign, I’ll be there in a couple of minutes.  Continue with your work.  Corjet, out.

CNS_Alana says:
::Watching carefully as the crew begins to stir::

Host CO_Pavielion says:
::Is relieved when he hears the COM::  *CSO*: Acknowledged, Lieutenant.  Get me a repair time when you can.  Also, how are the simulations coming with the temporal anomaly?

Barbara_Watson says:
::Eyes flutter open and she sees she is inside some kind of coffin.  Begins to panic and bang on the lid of the chamber::

CNS_Alana says:
CMO: Do you have sedatives ready just in case they need a little relaxation?

Capt_Lofton says:
::Angry:: All: Well, let her out!

Host SM_Darlene says:
<Manual Goring> ::Tries to sit up and bangs his head on the chamber lid::

CMO_Sovok says:
::Points to a tray:: CNS: Over there. TO: Help me with these lids.

CNS_Alana says:
::Steps backward near TO::

CEO_Corjet says:
<TO Bailey> ::Shakes his head with a smile as he sees the CEO coming back with black soot all over him:: CEO: Bad day, Sir? ::Snaps to attention:: Clearance for entry, Sir.

CMO_Sovok says:
::Begins to lift the lids off of the pods::

CSO_Taliza says:
*CO*: I'm hearing COM traffic between Commander Corjet and crewman Jo about a one-hour repair time.  As far as the anomaly is concerned, every simulation seems to fail to this point.

Barbara_Watson says:
::Sees Captain Lofton looking down at her through the lid of the stasis chamber and relaxes a bit::

TO_Rr’Vellan says:
::Perks her ears forward:: CMO: Yes, Sir. ::Walks over to help him::

Barbara_Watson says:
::Sits up as the lid is opened:: Lofton: Sir?  ::Rubs her eyes::

CMO_Sovok says:
::Sets the lids aside:: All: Try to stay calm, everything will be explained in due time.. You are in no danger whatsoever.

Capt_Lofton says:
::Walks over and takes Barbara's hand as soon as he can.  He nods to Manual::  CNS: Is there someplace I can take them, to talk?

Host SM_Darlene says:
<Manual Goring> ::Sits up and yawns::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Laughs as he looks down and tries to brush off some of the soot:: TO: Yes Bailey, just one of those days.  ::Taps into the console and is authorized for entry, takes a step forward:: Hopefully it will go much better.  ::Enters Shuttlebay 2::

CEO_Corjet says:
<TO Bailey> ::Nods, suppressing his laughter:: CEO: Aye, Sir.  ::Mans his post as the doors close behind the CEO::

Barbara_Watson says:
::Looks around at all the strange faces::  Lofton: What is going on, Sir?  Where are we?

CNS_Alana says:
CMO: Would you mind if they used your office?

Host CO_Pavielion says:
::Yawns, having slept very lightly in the past couple days::  *CSO*: Thank you, Lieutenant.  Keep working on the simulations.  Find a way to make it work.  Alert me when you have succeeded.

CMO_Sovok says:
::Stands back next to the TO and watches::

Capt_Lofton says:
Barbara:  It's okay, I'll tell you everything.

CSO_Taliza says:
*CO*: Sir, I saw on a memo that you wanted to see me?

Host SM_Darlene says:
<Manual Goring> ::Nods to Lofton and tries to climb out of the stasis chamber::

Capt_Lofton says:
::Helps her out and looks to see in Manual is okay::

TO_Rr’Vellan says:
::Slowly scratches the tips of her claws on the handle of her phaser::

CNS_Alana says:
CMO: I have a feeling, something is not exactly going right here.

Host CO_Pavielion says:
*CSO*: When time permits, Lieutenant.  Right now, handle any situations in Operations or the Shuttlebay until Commander Kerst returns.

CMO_Sovok says:
::Offers a hand to Manual to help him out of the pod::

CEO_Corjet says:
<EO Jo> ::Walks over to Commander Corjet as he enters:: CEO: We're almost done with pulling out the effected systems.  Replication teams are having a bit of trouble with the flight control computer system.  Something about stupid dopant.. or something, Sir. ::Motions to the shuttle:: Shouldn't be much longer after the replication teams are done.

CSO_Taliza says:
*CO*: Aye, Sir.

Barbara_Watson says:
::Sees the giant cat and gasps:: Lofton: What is this?

Capt_Lofton says:
::Chuckles:: Barbara: That's probably the same thing I said.

Host CO_Pavielion says:
::Sits back down, closes his eyes for a moment, getting exhausted of hearing nothing but bad news::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Nods then shakes his head:: EO: Aye... ::Walks over to the Challenger II, then turns back and stops:: Jo?  Did you send a progress report to the Captain or Exec?

CNS_Alana says:
::Smiles at Barbara Watson and Manual as they look around the room::

Host SM_Darlene says:
<Manual Goring> ::Sees the huge cat and hops out of the chamber taking a defensive posture::  CO: Sir?  What is going on?

CEO_Corjet says:
<EO Jo> ::Shakes his head:: CEO: Not yet, Sir.  ::Smiles and hands him the PADD:: Would you care to, Sir?

Capt_Lofton says:
Crew: At ease, both of you!   CNS: Really, maybe someplace less... distracting, would be good.

CMO_Sovok says:
::Dances backwards quickly avoiding Manual.  Gets his footing and walks back to the TO::

TO_Rr’Vellan says:
::Sees the look the other crew members are giving her::

CMO_Sovok says:
::Motions to his office:: Lofton: Captain, feel free.

CNS_Alana says:
Lofton: You can have some privacy in the CMO's office just that way. ::Motions toward the office::

Host SM_Darlene says:
<Manual Goring> ::Relaxes a bit then moves to Lofton and Watson::

Capt_Lofton says:
::Starts to lead his crew into the office::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Nods as he takes the PADD and looks it over then cross-references EO Jo's scans with the previous ones.  Starts to confirm all the data:: EO: Continue with repairs Jo. ::Stands there looking at the PADD::

Host CO_Pavielion says:
::Decides to leave things up to his staff for the time being, activates several visual and audio devices in Sickbay and checks in on what is happening::

Barbara_Watson says:
::Follows Lofton into the CMO's office::

CEO_Corjet says:
<EO Jo> ::Enters the Challenger II and helps with the repairs::

CMO_Sovok says:
::Hops up on a biobed and sits down, looking at the TO::

CSO_Taliza says:
::Works on simulations::

CNS_Alana says:
::Walks behind them slowly but not too close::

Host SM_Darlene says:
<Manual Goring> ::Follows Lofton into the CMO's office, walking backwards, still staring at the giant cat::

Capt_Lofton says:
::Once they are in the office, he sits his crewmembers down and tries to decide where to start::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Walks over to a cargo container and sits upon it.  Then checks off on the report and files his report on what happened::

TO_Rr’Vellan says:
::Follows the Challenger II crew and stands just outside the door::

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: The Challenger II's crew is led into the CMO's Office for a private conference with their Captain.

CEO_Corjet says:
<EO Jo> ::Sends a remote message to the CEO that the flight control actuators on the shuttle are installed and are working fine.  Then lets him know that the replication teams are bringing up the flight control computer::

TO_Rr’Vellan says:
::Leans up against the doorway, looking at the CMO and CNS::

CNS_Alana says:
::Begins to pace back and forth in front of the door::

Host CO_Pavielion says:
::Turns his head to look at his COM panel::  *OPS*: Ensign Spicer, report to my Ready Room.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Sees a message blink on the PADD, then reads the message.  Looks it over and adds it to the report.  Finishes filing his Incident Report and shakes his head.  Then sits there looking at the Challenger II:: *CO*: Sir?  Damage report on the Challenger II, Sir.

OPS_Spicer says:
*CO*: Aye, Sir. ::Gives the Ops console to his second and heads to the CO's Ready Room::

Capt_Lofton says:
::Begins tell his crew the fantastic story of where and when they are and what is going to happen::

Host CO_Pavielion says:
*CEO*: Go ahead, Commander.  ::Hears the door chime::  OPS: Come!

OPS_Spicer says:
::Enters the Ready Room:: CO: Ensign Spicer reporting as ordered, Sir.

CSO_Taliza says:
::Continues to run simulations::

CMO_Sovok says:
::Sighs and glances around Sickbay::

CNS_Alana says:
CMO: I wonder where the CO will decide for them to go? Do you have a clue?

CEO_Corjet says:
*CO*: It will be just under an hour for the final repair and inspection of the Challenger II's systems.  There was an electrical short, which caused the fire, Sir.  I have EO Jo working on it now.

Host CO_Pavielion says:
::Motions for the Ensign to come closer::

OPS_Spicer says:
::Enters further into the Ready Room and stands in front of the CO's desk::

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACITON: The CSO's simulation shows a stable temporal anomaly can be created, however he will need to hurry as the chronoton particles in the area are beginning to dissipate.

Host CO_Pavielion says:
::Rubs his head::  *CEO*: Acknowledged, Commander.  Please hurry.  As much as I may enjoy our guests, I will be relieved when this burden is gone.

CEO_Corjet says:
<EO Jo> ::Over sees the final removal of the shuttle’s flight control wiring then starts installing the new wiring harnesses::

CSO_Taliza says:
::Notices the winning formula:: Computer: How much time do we have?

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: The Challenger crew listens to Lofton as he explains their situation.

TO_Rr’Vellan says:
::Looks over at the CMO: CMO: So this is a norrrmal day forrr you, I suppose?

OPS_Spicer says:
::Tries not to stare at the CO::

Host CO_Pavielion says:
::Slides a PADD across his desk towards the Ensign::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Gets up off of the cargo container:: *CO*: Aye, Sir.  I'll report when we're done here, Sir. ::Quickly walks over to the shuttle::

CNS_Alana says:
::Chuckles a bit::

Barbara_Watson says:
::Begins to cry because she realizes she will never see her husband or her two children again::

CMO_Sovok says:
::Looks over at the TO:: TO: Actually, this has been pretty busy and strange. Usually I just sit around for hours until I forget I have a report to do or someone walks in bleeding or burned or something.

OPS_Spicer says:
::Takes the PADD and looks it over very quickly::

Capt_Lofton says:
::Comforts Barbara as best he can::

CNS_Alana says:
::Begins sensing the overwhelming emotions coming and going in the crew as they are told what is happening::

Host SM_Darlene says:
<Computer> CSO: Chronoton saturation will dissipate in approximately 35 minutes.

OPS_Spicer says:
::Looks at the CO:: CO: Sir?

CSO_Taliza says:
Self: 35 minutes?!  *CO*: Captain, may I come in?

Host CO_Pavielion says:
::Hears an urgent COM::  *CSO*: One second, Lieutenant.  I will be right with you.  ::Looks to OPS::

Host SM_Darlene says:
<Manual Goring>  ::Stands and protests being forced to stay in this timeline::

TO_Rr’Vellan says:
CMO: You don't have anything else to occupy yourrr time? Pity.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Moves over and helps his engineers start installing the new flight control computer:: Engineers: We need to expedite this repair.  ::Moves out of the way as they bring in the computer::

CSO_Taliza says:
*CO*: Sorry, Sir, but we don't have a second to spare!

Capt_Lofton says:
::Explains that he understands, but this is what is going to happen::

CNS_Alana says:
::Begins hearing crying and now shouting and sensing great anger::

CMO_Sovok says:
TO: I visit my parent's house in the Holodeck occasionally but I don't have many hobbies.

Host SM_Darlene says:
<Manual Goring>  ::Sits back down and listens to Lofton::

Host CO_Pavielion says:
OPS: I need you to find as many planets as possible within Federation space that match Earth in 2010.  I have a list of things on that PADD that must be similar for the planet to be considered.  I cannot explain any further and do not mention this to anyone.  ::Hears the CSO::  *CSO*: All right, Lieutenant.  ::Looks to OPS::  OPS: Dismissed.

Barbara_Watson says:
::Looks teary eyed to Lofton as he talks::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Moves some of the burned out equipment into the shuttlebay as the rest of the engineers work on installing the computer::  Engineers: Lets get this mess over to one of the cargo holds now.  ::Motions to the burned mess at his feet::

CSO_Taliza says:
::Rushes over to the Ready Room and enters:: CO: Sir, I have good news and bad news.

OPS_Spicer says:
::Nods at the CO:: CO: Understood. ::Leaves the Ready Room::

Host CO_Pavielion says:
::Leans back::  CSO: Go Ahead.

Capt_Lofton says:
::Explains how they have no other choice in the matter::

CSO_Taliza says:
CO: First the good news.  I found a way to make a stable temporal-spatial window back to August 2010.

CEO_Corjet says:
<EO Jo> ::Starts to sweat as he quickly finishes installing the new flight computer::  Engineers: Okay. ::Starts scanning the connections:: Good, good. ::Taps on his tricorder:: Okay, lets move out! ::Heads out of the shuttle and waves to the CEO::

Host CO_Pavielion says:
CSO: Finally, a bright point in the day and the bad news?

CSO_Taliza says:
CO: But the bad news is that we only have 32 minutes and  ::Looks at chronometer:: 45 seconds to get it done.

OPS_Spicer says:
::Returns to the Ops console and interfaces his PADD with his console and begins working::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Stands there as the engineers move away the burnt components of the shuttle.  Then turns to see EO Jo:: EO: Report. ::Walks over to him::

CNS_Alana says:
CMO: I have asked the CO to allow me to try hypnosis to alter the memories of their past so they will not have such a hard time adjusting.  What do you think?

TO_Rr’Vellan says:
::Flicks her ears as she thinks about what the CMO said::

CSO_Taliza says:
CO: And the problem is that the engineers need now about 45 minutes to get the shuttle prepared to launch.

Host CO_Pavielion says:
::Frowns::  CSO: That is not good.  ::Turns in his chair::  *CEO*: Commander, I apologize, but there has been a change in plan.  I need the Challenger II ready to go in twenty-five minutes.  I know you need an hour, but make it happen, Commander.

CEO_Corjet says:
<EO Jo> ::Nods and moves out of the shuttle as the rest of the engineers pile out:: CEO: Finished with installation.  Just need to get final inspection, Sir. ::Motions over to the engineers that are on standby::

CMO_Sovok says:
::Shakes his head:: CNS: People adjust normally. It just takes time. I suggest that.

Host CO_Pavielion says:
::Sighs::  CSO: You cannot extend the window at all?

CEO_Corjet says:
::Smiles and moves out of the way as the Inspection Team heads into the Challenger II::

CEO_Corjet says:
<EO Jo> ::Looks to the CEO and shakes his head, then follows the Inspection Team in::

CSO_Taliza says:
CO: No, Sir.  The chronoton particles in the area from the first anomaly will dissipate by that time, now in 31 minutes and ::Looks at chronometer:: 5 seconds.

CEO_Corjet says:
*CO*: Aye, Sir, I'll make it.  ::Cuts the COM quickly enters:: Self: I hope...

OPS_Spicer says:
::Data scrolls across his console with possible selections and he downloads them to the PADD::

Host CO_Pavielion says:
CSO: Artificial chronoton insertion will not help?  ::Racks his brain trying to think of something::

CNS_Alana says:
::Nods::  CMO: I hope so but this will be very difficult.  I wonder if sometime in the future they will try somehow to get back to their time!  Hmm….

CSO_Taliza says:
CO: That was one of my calculations that failed.

TO_Rr’Vellan says:
CNS/CMO: The odds of that arrre verrry low.

Host CO_Pavielion says:
CSO: Very well, Lieutenant, make the necessary preparations.  We will launch the Challenger II in thirty minutes, ready or not.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Orders certain Inspection engineers to various posts:: Inspection Engineers: We're going to do this differently this time.  I'm pressed for time and we're almost out of it.  Now, all of you have posts.  I'm going to transfer the data from the scans of the tricorders into the computer.  Monitor everything and let me know if anything fails!

CMO_Sovok says:
TO: I agree.

CSO_Taliza says:
CO: Sir, could this be the cause of the crash in 2010?

CMO_Sovok says:
CNS: I still think we should just let them adjust mentally on their own.

CMO_Sovok says:
CNS: What if they start to remember after hypnosis, say ten, twenty years from now? They'll be confused, angry, among other things. Best to let it work it's way out naturally.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Starts initialization of the Challenger II's flight control computer.  Grins as he continues:: IE: It's working.  So good so far.  ::Smiles and then walks to the console and runs one more diagnostic check::

CNS_Alana says:
CMO: But perhaps they may, in the future try to find someone who will help them.  It could be a possibility you know.  They may act out of the desperation to get home.

Host CO_Pavielion says:
CSO: I do not know, Lieutenant.  I can only work off of what I know.  What will be the power drain and effect on the station when we try to open this anomaly?

CEO_Corjet says:
<EO Jo> ::Smiles, beaming with pride:: CEO: Looking good here.  Five by five, Sir! ::Closes his tricorder::

TO_Rr’Vellan says:
::Nods:: CNS: I agree with the CMO on this one. The human mind has it's own incrreadable healing prrocessess

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: The flight computer on the shuttle comes online without any problems.

CSO_Taliza says:
CO: We'll lose replicator power by 20 percent and shields by 33 percent.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Nods and sighs with relief:: *CO*: We're done here, Sir. ::Smiles as he looks at the shuttles console and motions the rest of the engineers out::

CMO_Sovok says:
CNS: I'm sorry, as their acting Doctor I won't let it happen.

CSO_Taliza says:
CO: Sir, if I may, your decision just earned justification.

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: Chronoton particle saturation is dwindling.

CNS_Alana says:
CMO: The mind does heal, but it still remembers.   I just hope they don't hurt for too long. 

CMO_Sovok says:
::Nods:: CNS: We can all pray for them in our own way.

Host CO_Pavielion says:
::Looks to the side::  CSO: I only wish that I felt that way.  ::Pauses::  Please, go and prepare the station, make sure all other vessels are locked down and the station is sealed up.

Capt_Lofton says:
::Having finished bringing his crew up to speed, he steps back into the main Sickbay::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Looks over and motions an engineer to pick up his tools then inspects the Challenger II for any evidence of them being there.  Smiles and exits the shuttle:: Engineer: Great work everyone.  Everyone out!  Now!  Clear the bay. ::Motions everyone out::

CMO_Sovok says:
::Looks over at the Captain:: Lofton: Captain, how did things go?

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: The shuttle crew follows Lofton out of the CMO’s office and begins looking around.

CSO_Taliza says:
CO: That fire damaged the flight computer.  Even if we sent the crew back, they couldn't avoid the crash.  ::Pauses:: I'll get everything ready.  We should have an opening within 15 minutes and I can hold it for 10.

OPS_Spicer says:
::Continues his data search::

Capt_Lofton says:
::Calmer now:: CMO: As well as can be expected.  Things will be better, in time.

CNS_Alana says:
CMO: Yes, let's do that and I suggest we check up on them from time to time, where ever they go.

CSO_Taliza says:
::Turns to exit Ready Room:: CO: I'll keep you updated, Sir.

Host CO_Pavielion says:
::Notices a red tint to his eyes in the reflection from his desk::  CSO: Very well, Lieutenant, dismissed.

CEO_Corjet says:
EO: Jo?  You have Main Engineering till you hear back from me. ::Sighs with relief:: Let them know I'm proud of their work.  ::Turns and heads over to a panel as the doors to the shuttlebay close then closes and secures all compartments in the shuttlebay and exits::

CNS_Alana says:
::Looks over at Lofton as he emerges from the office::

CMO_Sovok says:
::Nods:: Watson/Goring: On behalf of Starfleet I'd like to welcome you to the 24th Century. I know it's overwhelming right now and I'm sorry for that.

Capt_Lofton says:
CNS: I'm feeling a bit tired.  Perhaps you could show me to those quarters?  ::Smiles::  I'm sure the others feel the same.

CSO_Taliza says:
::Exits Ready Room and returns to station:: *Goode/Plenty*: John, Jen, listen up!  I'm going to feed the following telemetry to the lab down there.  I want you to set up the station's systems to emit the substances and particles in the percentages as listed.  ::Sends the data::

Host SM_Darlene says:
ACTION: The shuttle crew completes their tour around Sickbay and walk back to Lofton.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Talks to TO Bailey a moment then starts proceeding to Station Operations::

TO_Rr’Vellan says:
::Thunks her tail against the wall, still getting the "giant cat" vibe from the other Challenger II crew::

CNS_Alana says:
Lofton/Goring/Watson: Yes, they are not far from here.

Capt_Lofton says:
::Nods in appreciation::

CMO_Sovok says:
Lofton/Goring/Watson: If you have any medical needs, you know where to find me.

CSO_Taliza says:
*CEO*: Commander, Cal, here.  I'm going to start opening the window to 2010.  With that flight computer, no one is to board that shuttle.  Use Bailey if you have to, but keep those three people off that shuttle!

CNS_Alana says:
TO: Are your people ready?

Barbara_Watson says:
::Nods to the strange looking CMO::

Host CO_Pavielion says:
*CEO*: Good job, Commander.  Set the Challenger II on a course for the anomaly, and then one for Mars, history will take effect somewhere in there.  We will launch in fifteen minutes.

Host SM_Darlene says:
<Manual Goring> CMO: Thank you, uhh...Doctor?

CEO_Corjet says:
::Enters the turbolift:: CSO: Aye.  Already taken care of, Cal. ::Taps his COM badge again::|

CMO_Sovok says:
::Nods:: Goring: Yes, Doctor Sovok.

Host CO_Pavielion says:
*TO*: Ensign Rr'Vellan, please contact the Captain in his Ready Room using the closet wall panel.

CSO_Taliza says:
OPS: Prepare to lockdown the station.

TO_Rr’Vellan says:
::Flicks her ears:: CNS: Just a moment.

CNS_Alana says:
Goring/Watson: I am Alana.  I'm what is called the Counselor of the Station and I will be happy to talk with either one of you and give you as much information as I can after you get settled.  I'm sure our Captain would like to meet with you also.

OPS_Spicer says:
CSO: Aye. ::Prepares to lockdown the station::

TO_Rr’Vellan says:
::Walks into the CMO's office:: *CO*: Yes, Sirrr?

CSO_Taliza says:
::Makes final preparations to open the 2010 window::

CEO_Corjet says:
*CO*: Aye, Sir.  Course already laid in.  I'm proceeding to Station Operations. ::Exits the turbolift and enters Station Operations:: Aye, Sir, fifteen minutes.

Barbara_Watson says:
::Looks at the CNS:: CNS: Thank you.

Host SM_Darlene says:
<Manual Goring> CNS: Thank you.

Capt_Lofton says:
CNS: Shall we?  ::Motions to the door and smiles::

OPS_Spicer says:
*CO*: Captain, I have that information you requested.

CNS_Alana says:
*CO*: The Challenger II's crew is awake and has been informed of what is happening.  We are preparing to guide them to their Quarters for a little rest.

Host CO_Pavielion says:
::Activates his terminal screen::  *TO*: Ensign, we are about to launch the Challenger II.  Escort the Captain and his crew to the Briefing Room on Level Seventeen.  Do not let them anywhere near the shuttlebay or Main Operations.

CMO_Sovok says:
::Watches the TO walk into his office and glances back at the crew::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Walks over to the engineering console:: CSO: Can you patch the coordinates for the anomaly to my station here?

TO_Rr’Vellan says:
::Nods curtly:: *CO*: Understood, Sir.

CSO_Taliza says:
CEO: Here you go. ::Sends the coordinates::

Host CO_Pavielion says:
*OPS*: Very good, Ensign.  Hold onto it and prepare to give a full report to me when requested.

CNS_Alana says:
::Hears the Captain's directive over the COM::

CEO_Corjet says:
::Smiles as he turns to the CSO:: CSO: Did you get the orders that we're launching in fifteen minutes? ::Turns back to his console::

OPS_Spicer says:
*CO*: Aye, Sir.

CSO_Taliza says:
CEO: I said I'd get the window open within that time frame and hold it open for up to 10 minutes.

CMO_Sovok says:
::Walks around the group of people and sits on a biobed, looking around::

Host CO_Pavielion says:
::Stands from his chair and exits his Ready Room::

CSO_Taliza says:
*Goode/Plenty*: Science Lab 1, report!  Are we ready yet?

CNS_Alana says:
Lofton: we will be first going to the Briefing Room as Captain Pavielion has ordered.

OPS_Spicer says:
::Deletes any evidence of his search from the station's computers::

CSO_Taliza says:
<Goode> *CSO*: Goode here, we'll be ready in 5 minutes.

CEO_Corjet says:
::Nods as he patches in the coordinates of the anomaly to the shuttles flight computer, making sure that the other flight plan is still there:: CSO: Aye.

CSO_Taliza says:
*Goode*: Prepare to fire on my mark.

Host CO_Pavielion says:
CEO: Commander, once evacuated depressurize the shuttlebay.

TO_Rr’Vellan says:
::Exits the CMO's office:: CNS/CMO: We'rrre heading to the Brriefing Room. ::Looks at Lofton:: Lofton: You guys too.
