Host Terry says:
RECAP: A Ferengi cargo ship, run by Damon Tanor, carrying medical experiments has limped into port at Kootenai Station. The ship was experiencing cascading systems failures.

Host Terry says:
The passengers were transported aboard the station and the ship was tractored into dock. Once docked, a cascading systems failure began to grip Kootenai from the docking bay into the deck.

Host Terry says:
As systems failed investigations revealed an intruder. Olbrun has scanned the intruder and sent data back to OPS.

Host Terry says:
**** R E S U M E   M I S S I O N ****

OPS_Jones says:
::in operations isolating circuits ::

Host Terry says:
ACTION: OPS receives data sent by Olbrun just as artificial gravity is disabled on Deck 10. Olbrun begins to float down the corridor. The data shows a microscopic entity that feeds on silicon alloys commonly found in StarFleet electrical fields.

OPS_Jones says:
*CEO* WE need to unlink systems sharing

CTO_Alex says:
::receiving reports from the tactical team on the Ferengi ship::

EO_D`nor says:
*OPS* The Ferengi is disengaged now.

TACSturek says:
::approaching Kootenai station::

OPS_Jones says:
::looks over report quickly ::

Host Terry says:
<Olbrun> OPS: I need to get gravity back now! :: Floating down the corridor ::

OPS_Jones says:
*CTO* we have a Silca Eater aboard

EO_D`nor says:
::Runs to engineering panels and scans for the virus::

CTO_Alex says:
OPS: Do we know how to capture this creature?

Host Terry says:
ACTION: Cascade failure of all systems on the docking deck. Emergency lights come on.

OPS_Jones says:
*EO* The probelm is a Silica eater

TACSturek says:
@COM: Kootenai: This is LtJg. Sturek Tactical officer. Requesting permission to come aboard.

OPS_Jones says:
CTO: the info is in the data banks, how to set tricorders and such

EO_D`nor says:
*OPS* Try starting a holo program and fill it with sand.

CTO_Alex says:
OPS: Thank you. I will relay that to my teams

CTO_Alex says:
::sends the data to the tactical teams::

EO_D`nor says:
::Shunts power links, breaking current connections between intruder and essential systems::

Host Terry says:
<Olbrun> OPS: I have transferred data to you about this creature, did you receive it?

OPS_Jones says:
COM: Shuttle:  Sturek  , be advised we have a Silica aboard at present and it may not be safe to atempt docking , suggest you teather and beam aboard

Host Terry says:
<Olbrun> :: Still floating and feeling a little space sick ::

OPS_Jones says:
*CO* I scanned it , we are attempting to isolate circuits now and begin trackin

CTO_Alex says:
OPS: this creature is only aboard the station and not on the Ferengi ship? I guess what I am asking is if there are more than one

OPS_Jones says:
*EO* Any Lovcale in mind ?

TACSturek says:
@COM:Kootenai: Acknowledged OPS. Beginning approach.

Host Terry says:
<Olbrun> :: Feeling very sick now::

EO_D`nor says:
::Exits TL to OPS::

EO_D`nor says:
Ops: here's an idea

OPS_Jones says:
CTO: I suspect they are like mice you see one , there are 50 more you don't see

TACSturek says:
::prepares to lock onto the station::

EO_D`nor says:
OPS: beam the crew off that shuttle and then we lead the intruder to it and set the shuttle adrift.

Host Terry says:
ACTION:: Systems on deck 3 begin to fail on deck 9 near the crew quarters.

OPS_Jones says:
*EO* Can you get the gravity on Deck 10 working again ?

CTO_Alex says:
::starts getting reports that several teams are getting a faint signal to track the creature::

TACSturek says:
::"shoots" the tether to the station hub::

CTO_Alex says:
OPS: Not something I am happy about

OPS_Jones says:
EO: What if we set the trap in a Airlock ?

TACSturek says:
@COM:Kootenai: This is Sturek. Awaiting transport coordinates.

Host Terry says:
<Olbrun> OPS: I'm continuing my scans and it seems that the creature is replicating as it feeds. I cannot tell at what rate. :: Getting dizzy::

back_to_t says:
OPS: that will work

EO_D`nor says:
::Turns to OPS:: OPS: working on it.  ::Shunts more power to gravity initiators::

OPS_Jones says:
COM Shutle: Sturek : Stand by for transport

Host Terry says:
ACTION: Deck 9, Section 4 has lost power.

CTO_Alex says:
::receives a final report of the tactical team aboard the Ferengi vessel......no creatures were found::

EO_D`nor says:
OPS: we could tractor the shuttle in, and fill it with silica

EO_D`nor says:
OPS: that might attract the beastie.

OPS_Jones says:
EO: Why not just space them though an airlock ?

TACSturek says:
::materializes on the station::

EO_D`nor says:
OPS: can you get a lock on them, I can't

CTO_Alex says:
*Alpha Team*:Prepare to be transported back to the station

OPS_Jones says:
EO: Let me try ::scans the station ::

Host Terry says:

EO_D`nor says:
*DCT6*  Get to the gravity genearators and restart them.

Host Terry says:
ACTION: Some of the creatures are removed, however many remain. Cascade failure of power conduits on deck 9, section 5 and 6.

EO_D`nor says:
<DCT6>*EO* on the way

TACSturek says:
CTO: Yes sir. Where would you like me to go?

OPS_Jones says:
EO: what if we killed all power and such to that section and so on , so that it moved to where we want them ?

CTO_Alex says:
TAC: Alpha Team is heading to deck 9, how'd you like to lead them?

Tanor says:
:: Enters OPS and strolls over the Jones :: Ah, do we have a problem here?

TACSturek says:
CTO: On my way sir.

OPS_Jones says:
Tanor: Who are you ?

EO_D`nor says:
OPS: need to make a physical break or they might just jump the shut down sections.

CTO_Alex says:
TAC: Catch ::tosses him a tricorder::

Host Terry says:
<Olbrun> OPS: Transport me to Sick bay... I think I've had enough floating.

TACSturek says:
::catches the tricorder::

OPS_Jones ::transports the CO to Sickbay ::  (Transporter.wav)

Tanor says:
Mr. whoever: I am Damon Tanor. And that's my ship floating out there. What did you do to it?!?!

OPS_Jones says:
EO: the only way we could do that would be , er to disassemble the station

EO_D`nor says:
CTO: Have some security report to my techs, we're goin  to start disconnecting the EPS

CTO_Alex says:
EO: Force fields will not work...they just eat them up

Host Terry says:
<Olbrun> :: Arrives in sick bay and take a bio bed to rest in ::

OPS_Jones says:
Tanor: Tanor, ahh, you are the one who brought this plague upon us ?

CTO_Alex says:
EO: I'll send Charlie Team ....where would you like them?

EO_D`nor says:
Tanor: Just what are you carrying on that ship?

OPS_Jones says:
CTO: We may want to place this "Gentleman" under arrest

TACSturek says:
::walks into a turbolift:: TL: Deck 9.

Tanor says:
I transport medical supplies. :: Said proudly and with a bit of irritation ::

CTO_Alex says:
::nods to OPS::

EO_D`nor says:

CTO: send them to decks 9 & 10

CTO_Alex says:
EO: Alpha Team already did a physical search and found nothing

Tanor says:
Hmmmm... You cannot prove that. I am not carrying anything illegal!

OPS_Jones says:
EO: what about we evacuate decks 8 through 11 and vent them ?

EO_D`nor says:
CTO: Not a search we're pulling the EPS line apart, so it can't spread.

Tanor says:
Jones: I tried that, it didnt work.

CTO_Alex says:
EO: ok, I have teams on those decks already ::sends messages to teams to see the techs on those decks::

EO_D`nor says:
OPS: can we do it fast enough?

OPS_Jones says:
Tanor: with a total shutdown of power ?

CTO_Alex says:
EO: I was referring to the Ferengi ship

TACSturek says:
*CTO*: I've taken command of Alpha Team sir. Orders?

Host Terry says:
ACTION: Explosion on deck 9, section 2. Power conduits have ruptured.

EO_D`nor says:
::Nods understanding to CTO::

OPS_Jones says:
EO: Think it would work Engineer ?

TACSturek says:
::begins down the corridor of Section 3::

EO_D`nor says:
OPS: being silicon based they probably don' t need to "breath"

Host Terry says:
ACTION: Computer functions are being interrupted all over the station. Network structures are being ripped apart on Deck 9 and 10.

CTO_Alex says:
::notices the power fluctuations::

OPS_Jones says:
EO: but you said isolation ... so that woud make sure that no-one would repower some equipment that we did not know of

CTO_Alex says:
EO: Your techs better work fast

EO_D`nor says:
OPS: what's the evac status/

OPS_Jones says:
EO: I can evacuate all in 15 seconds

OPS/CTO: What if we bring the Feringin ship back, power up its computers and shut ours down?

OPS_Jones says:
EO: If we power up the heater on the starboard wall...

EO_D`nor says:
::Listens to OPS::

CTO_Alex says:
EO: ahhh, and draw them off with the ship....that could work

TACSturek says:
*CTO*: We've begun evacuating decks 9 & 10.

OPS_Jones says:
EO: that is on Deck 10 near a exit port ..we can lead them that way

CTO_Alex says:
*TAC* Include decks 7, 8, 10, 11, and 12 in the evacuation

Host Terry says:
ACTION: Computer terminals on deck 9, section 7 begin to fail.

EO_D`nor says:

::Leaves one terminal on next to air lock where the ship will dock::

CTO_Alex says:
Tanor: Your lucky to be alive

OPS_Jones says:
Tanor: We will , after we save the station, if we can

Tanor says:
Jones: Well I want a shuttle now!... I'm leaving!

Tanor says:
:: Stomps to the TL and enters ::

EO_D`nor says:
OPS/CTO: ::shrugs:: the heat could either shut them down or excite them.

CTO_Alex says:
::returns his attention to the Tactical teams who are evacuating the decks::

OPS_Jones says:
