Episode 97: "What Happened to Starbase 917, Part 5?": The cones have retreated back to the station where they have taken up defense positions. The virus the Luna crew has been making it's way through Starbase 917's computer systems and is now complete.  The Luna is able to manipulate the Starbase.  Lt Singh and Lt Cathorn are on the station running from clones and trying not to be caught by the parasites. They have entered a room on the 44th floor where they have discovered a chamber of all the crew of the station, where they were in some type of stasis.  All have been infected by the parasites.  Lt Anuviel constructed a mini Y class atmosphere in one of the stasis tubes and transported a clone inside. The trick worked and the parasite reverted back to it's original state. Capt Adamson and Ens Jon are now both in Stasis tubes awaiting Cmdr Turok, who has a plan...

Host CO_Savar says:
::Sitting in the center chair::
TO_Rowe says:
::in security office, monitoring the situation at hand on about 20 different monitors watching team members run in and out::
CSO_Singh says:
@::In a large chamber::  CEO:  I have a problem with just leaving them like that.
CMO_Turok says:
::Finishes running simulations in the lab and sits back with a grunt.  Cracks his neck loudly and stands up.::
XO_Yeung says:
::walks onto the bridge and heads to the captain::
Host CO_Savar says:
*TO*: Lieutenant, are there any more clones on the Luna?
XO_Yeung says:
CO: Hey, captain, I'm back. What'd I miss?
CNS_Anuviel says:
::in sickbay at the stasis pods::
CEO_Cathorn says:
@CSO: What would you suggest? ::nervously fingers his weapon::
TO_Rowe says:
::hears the captain and glances at a console:: *CO*: Other than  the two obvious no sir.
CMO_Turok says:
CNS: I believe I have a solution.  It is risky, but I can see no other way to remove the parasite from the hosts.
CSO_Singh says:
@CEO:  I am rather short information here.  Like... what exactly is that parasite.  Who long have they even been here?
Host CO_Savar says:
XO: Commander, take the Operations console and begin beaming all clones into the class Y environment from the Ironsword.
CNS_Anuviel says:
::looks at Turok:: CMO: What is it?
CMO_Turok says:
CNS: Better I not explain it twice.  Listen...  ::Taps his commbadge::
TO_Rowe says:
::checks positions of team members:: *CO*: Sir, permission to stand down from full lockdown.
XO_Yeung says:
CO: No problem. ::takes up the seat at operations::
Host CO_Savar says:
*TO*: Do so.

ACTION:  Reyarc senses movement coming towards them from JTs.  Approximately 50 clones.

Host CO_Savar says:
::Turns to the CTO::  CTO: Status of the shields?
Reyarc says:
@::Glances behind them::  CSO: Harmony, trouble... lots of them.
CMO_Turok says:
*XO*: Commander, I believe I have a solution.  I will require an engineering team here in sickbay.  I intend to modify the isolation chamber and turn it into a stasis pod.  Then, we will be able to operate on the hosts while they remain in Stasis.
TO_Rowe says:
::taps a few buttons on the console:: Computer: Recognize Lieutenant Junior Grade Thati Rowe. ::watches all his systems return to normal::
CSO_Singh says:
@Reyarc:  What kind of trouble?
CTO_Jarot says:
::glances at the CO and nods::  CO: Shields at 100%, Captain...
Reyarc says:
@CSO:  The kind we don't want to be here for.  They are looking for us.
Host CO_Savar says:
CTO: Any indication of where the Kaneda class fighters went?
XO_Yeung says:
*CMO*: Okay. I'll send down a team to you.
CSO_Singh says:
@::Looks at the CEO::  CEO:  Did you lead them here?  And why would they want you?
CMO_Turok says:
CNS: You understood?
CTO_Jarot says:
CO: Scanning for the fighters now...  ::initiates the sensor sweep::
CNS_Anuviel says:
::nods:: CMO: Yes sir. I can assist you if you wish...
CEO_Cathorn says:
@::turns head looking down the corridor:: Self: Great. CSO: No I didn't lead them here but it is time to move. ::shoulders his weapon firing once::
XO_Yeung says:
*Engineering*: One team to report to sickbay to modify the isolation chamber.
MO_Jon says:
::Lying in the stasis chamber, oblivious to the world around her, but keenly aware of the growing parasite on her neck::

ACTION:  From the Jefferies Tubes, clones burst out.  They are all armed.  The make their way to the small group of infiltrators.

Host CO_Savar says:
*CEO/CSO*: Away team, what is your status?
CTO_Jarot says:
Self: Hhhmmm....   CO: Captain, we got something interesting...  ::glances at the display::  the virus seems to be working as the fighters' patterns are becoming unorganized... we should be able to take them out more easily now...
CSO_Singh says:
@CEO: You trying to send them a flare?  ::Shakes her head::  I don't know this station, where do you suggest we go....
CSO_Singh says:
@*CO*:  Captain?  Is that you?  I think we are about to find ourselves in big trouble.  Can you get us out?
TO_Rowe says:
::begins furiously tapping on his console replacing teams with other teams leaving open personnel for away team assignment::
Host CO_Savar says:
::Looks over to OPS::  XO: Commander, do we still have a lock on the away team?
CEO_Cathorn says:
@CSO: Back the Lab that we have secured.
Reyarc says:
@CSO/CEO:  Now... or we will be lost.
CSO_Singh says:
@CEO:  Lead on...
CMO_Turok says:
CNS: Very well.  Here are the specifications.  I have not had time to cross-check them with engineering so they may have some adjustments.  Work with the team to get this done as soon as possible.
CEO_Cathorn says:
@EO: Timmons back lab you have the point.

ACTION:  The clones begin to fire. One of them skims Reyarc's arm.

Reyarc says:
@::grabs his arm, holding back a cry::
Host SM_Arlene says:
<EO Roberts> *XO*:  Aye Sir, I'm on the way.
XO_Yeung says:
::checks:: CO: We still got 'em. Executing transport. ::beams the away team to the Luna::
CSO_Singh says:
@::Glares at the clone, then grabbing her brothers good arm, dashes back into the room, closing the door::
TO_Rowe says:
::as his teams arrive in the Security Office he gathers them around:: All: Now hear this everyone!
EO_Timmons says:
@CEO: Aye sir ::takes off back to the lab rifle trained in front::
XO_Yeung says:
::beams the clones from the Ironsword to the class-Y on the Starbase::

ACTION:  Singh, Reyarc and Cathorn are beamed to the Luna.

Host SM_Arlene says:
<EO Roberts> *CMO*:  I'm on my way..  ::Picks up her box and exits engineering.::
CSO_Singh says:
::Taking a deep breath, guides Reyarc down and heads for sickbay::
CEO_Cathorn says:
::materializes on the Luna:: Self: What in......?
XO_Yeung says:
CO: The away team is back on the Luna, captain.
CSO_Singh says:
CEO:  Sir, I believe you will find the captain on the bridge.  That is his usual haunt.
TO_Rowe says:
All: Teams Alpha and Gamma will be reporting to TR 1, and Beta and Charlie to TR 4, dismissed, if you have any questions deal with it.
Reyarc says:
::Leaning on Harmony’s arm, heads out of the transporter room::
CEO_Cathorn says:
CSO: Thank you Lieutenant.
Host CO_Savar says:
XO: Excellent.  Continue utilizing the Ironsword's transporter systems to get the clones to the Starbase.  If necessary, override the refresh cycle.
XO_Yeung says:
::checks transport progress of the clones:: CO: And the Ironsword clones have all been beamed to the Starbase.
CNS_Anuviel says:
::nods at the CMO:: CMO: Yes sir.
CMO_Turok says:
::Watches as a team of engineers enters Sickbay.  Directs them to the CNS while he prepares the instruments and staff needed for the delicate operation.::
Host CO_Savar says:
XO: Lifesign readings from the Ironsword?
CSO_Singh says:
::Entering the nearest TL::  Computer, sickbay.
CEO_Cathorn says:
::walks out of the TR makes the short walk down the corridor enters the TL:: Computer: Deck 1.
Host SM_Arlene says:
<EO Roberts> CMO/CNS:  Ok what did you need?
TO_Rowe says:
*CTO*: Sir, I hate to disturb you but Security Personnel are prepped in transporter rooms 1 and 4
XO_Yeung says:
::scans the Ironsword::
CSO_Singh says:
::Anger at herself for getting him endanger, holds him tightly::
EO_Timmons says:
::materializes on the Luna hands shaking and breathing a bit hard::
CNS_Anuviel says:
EO Roberts: We need to convert the isolation chamber into a stasis chamber from which we can operate on a patient while they are still in stasis. ::hands her a PADD:: The CMO came up with a list of specs... take a look at them.
Reyarc says:
CSO:  It was my choice too.
Host CO_Savar says:
*CEO/CSO*: Lieutenants, report.
EO_Timmons says:
::starts following Cathorn::
TO_Rowe says:
*CTO*: I will be available to join them if it is necessary as well sir.
XO_Yeung says:
::blinks:: CO: Captain! The self-destruct mechanism on the Ironsword has been activated!
CSO_Singh says:
::Sighs and leads him out of the TL and towards sickbay::
Host CO_Savar says:
XO: How?  Override!
XO_Yeung says:
::attempts to shutdown the self-destruct::
CTO_Jarot says:
::begins programming a beta targeting system for the remaining fighters::
CEO_Cathorn says:
*CO*: Captain I'm on the Luna on my way to the bridge.
Reyarc says:
::Smiles painfully::  CSO:  You plan on carrying me around when I am twice your height?
CEO_Cathorn says:
EO: Get to Engineering Ensign start running checks.
CSO_Singh says:
::Seeing the picture in her mind, chuckles::  Reyarc:  Yeppers....  ::Enters sickbay, looking for the doctor.::
EO_Timmons says:
CEO: Aye sir.
Host SM_Arlene says:
<EO Roberts> ::takes the Specs from the CNS.:: CNS:  I'm Holly..  We haven't had a chance to meet yet.. ::Begins going over the specs.::  uh huh....yeah... ohhhhh.....now how in the.....  You know Ma'am  this could work it really can.. It will take a bit to get it done tough.
CEO_Cathorn says:
::feels the TL stop... watches the doors open and steps off moving directly to the captain::
CEO_Cathorn says:
CO: Lt Cathorn reporting sir.
CNS_Anuviel says:
EO Roberts: Nice to meet you Holly, I am Kala. Good to hear this will work! How long do you think it will take? And what can I help you with to speed things along?
Host CO_Savar says:
CEO: Chief, welcome aboard.  We'll find time to further introduce ourselves.
CTO_Jarot says:
::glances at the CO::  CO: Captain, we have the latest sensor info, it appears that there are 100 persons on the station....none left on the Ironsword...
CEO_Cathorn says:
CO: Aye sir.... If I may ask what has been planned for dealing with SB 917?
EO_Timmons says:
::watches the doors close on the TL:: Computer: Deck 24.
CTO_Jarot says:
*TO*: Understood, recommended course of action ?
CMO_Turok says:
::Turns from his staff of nurses who scurry off to get ready::  CSO/Reyarc: What do you want?
CSO_Singh says:
::Helping him to an empty biobed, helps him up.::
XO_Yeung says:
::sends commands to the Ironsword to override the autodestruct::
TO_Rowe says:
::stays in the Security Office, working through the security personnel that have been assigned and works to schedule an exam with sickbay after they go, if they go::
CSO_Singh says:
CMO:  He was hit by some weapon.
Host SM_Arlene says:
<EO Roberts> ::Opens her tool box.::  CNS:  Well first off we need to change the atmosphere to what is in the stasis tubes.. That is going to take approximate 30 mins to accomplish..  Before we do that though, a couple beds need to be put need the plexi glass and some holes drilled in.  I would say approximately 4 hours if you want it done right.
Host CO_Savar says:
CEO: We need to remove all clones to the class Y environment on the Starbase in order for them to revert to their parasitic state.  The host organisms need to be put into stasis or held in some manner to control the production of clones.  Until Medical can determine how to remove the parasitic sacs
TO_Rowe says:
*CTO*: I am only partially informed of the situation up there sir, I have been running around keeping your ship secure, I do not believe i am qualified to make a recommendation ::pauses:: sir
Reyarc says:
CMO:  It isn't that bad... just... painful.
Host CO_Savar says:
XO: Commander, report... how close are we to an explosion?
CEO_Cathorn says:
CO: Ok sir.... where would you like me for now?
CNS_Anuviel says:
::groans a bit:: EO Roberts: I understand. I'll let the CMO know and get out of your way. ::smiles::
CMO_Turok says:
::Walks over and takes his arm, amazingly gently::  CSO: Some kind of weapon?
XO_Yeung says:
CO: Phew. Not so close anymore. Autodestruct has been overridden.
CTO_Jarot says:
*TO*: Acknowledged, Jarot out.
Host SM_Arlene says:
<EO Roberts> ::Goes over to the console near the isolation chamber and begins programming the unit.::
Host CO_Savar says:
XO: We need to get a skeleton crew aboard.  CEO: Chief, how do you feel about going over to the Ironsword with an Engineering team and as many security teams as you feel you need?
CSO_Singh says:
CMO:  Other then an energy weapon, I didn't get much of a look at it.

ACTION:  The clones on the station are now becoming disoriented and disparate..  Weapons have come on line..  The fighters although not in formation are setting up for a run at the ships near the moon.

CMO_Turok says:
::Scans the wound::  CSO: mmm hmm
XO_Yeung says:
CO: I'll head on over. I'll take Lt. Rowe as well.
CEO_Cathorn says:
CO: Yes sir... I will get a team together... do we have any idea as to how bad things are on the Ironsword?
CTO_Jarot says:
::initiates the beta firing program::  CO: Captain, we've just initiated the new firing program which will be targeting the fighters' propulsion and weapons systems and it'll also be compensating for the random intervals that have occurred due to the virus' presence in the SB's computer systems...
CNS_Anuviel says:
::walks over to the CMO, sees the CSO and Reyarc, nods politely to them both:: CMO: The engineering crew gives an estimate of 4 hours to complete the stasis operation chamber.
CSO_Singh says:
CMO:  Well?
Reyarc says:
::Patiently waits::
Host CO_Savar says:
CEO: No, but we need to have a presence there.  XO: Commander, how do you feel about commanding the Ironsword?
Host CO_Savar says:
::Nods to the CTO::  CTO: Execute.
XO_Yeung says:
::grins:: CO: Thought you'd never ask.
CSO_Singh says:
::Looks at the counselor::  CNS:  Chamber for?
CTO_Jarot says:
::nods at the CO::  CO: Aye, Captain...
CMO_Turok says:
CNS: Four hours!?  ::Curses violently in Klingonese::  Tell them they have 2, and if there is any sort of problem I will speak to them personally.
CEO_Cathorn says:
CO: Ok sir I will get my team together and get with the CTO about tactical teams.
Host SM_Arlene says:
@<Xavier> COM: CO: Leave the area or we will kill the host bodies that are now under our control.  ::Panic can be seen in her eyes::
Host CO_Savar says:
XO/CEO: Good luck, gentlemen.  Keep in touch.  ::Calls for a replacement OPS officer to take over for the XO::
XO_Yeung says:
::enters the TL:: *TO/CEO*: Lt. Rowe, Lt. Cathorn, meet me in TR1 with your respective teams.
CSO_Singh says:
::Jumps slightly at the loud, angry voice::
CMO_Turok says:
::Checks the wound on Reyarc's arm then , still muttering, applies a hypo=spray and begins regenerating the tissue.::
TO_Rowe says:
::Curses aloud:: *XO*: My teams are already waiting for you, I will complete my work and be there as soon as possible sir, I recommend you arm yourself.
CEO_Cathorn says:
::turns back to the TL looks over at Tactical:: CTO: Can you spare two tactical teams Lieutenant?
CNS_Anuviel says:
CSO: We think we have a way to remove the parasites... ::turns to the CMO when he starts cursing, flinches back at the violent emotions:: CMO: I'll do my best to convey your sentiment to the engineering team.
Reyarc says:
::Relaxes as the pain eases::
Host CO_Savar says:
::Stands from his chair and takes a step towards the viewscreen::  COM: Xavier: Surely we can come to an agreement here.  Destroying your host bodies will only mean that you will cease to exist yourselves.
Host SM_Arlene says:
<EO Roberts> ::Finishes with the programming all it needs is the CMO's authorization.  She then goes about to set up the isolation chamber properly.::
CMO_Turok says:
Reyarc: I agree with your diagnosis, it is superficial.  Were you near Sickbay when the clones escaped?
CSO_Singh says:
CNS:  Oh... I hope so.  We found a room where they were literally stacked like logs of wood one on top of another.  And there was this... entity that every time the CEO walked near it, it became excited, so we did not get too close to the crew.
TO_Rowe says:
:: grabs a type 3 out of the locker and heads to  the TR patting himself down for his concealed weapons as he walks::
Reyarc says:
CMO:  I was on the station with the CSO
XO_Yeung says:
::exits TL and enters the transporter room::
Host SM_Arlene says:
@<Xavier> COM: CO: Not necessarily.  You see we have been studying this species.. it's breedable..  Any offspring can be, let's say, converted.
XO_Yeung says:
::arms himself with a type-2 phaser::
Reyarc says:
CMO:  Some of the clones walked around like... automations.  Others were deliberately trying to locate us.
CTO_Jarot says:
::turns to the CEO as he touches a few final additions to the sensor sweep program::  CEO: Of course, Chief...  you need them to rendezvous with you in the Transporter Room ?
CNS_Anuviel says:
::walks over to Roberts and her team:: EO Roberts: The CMO wants the chamber done in two hours... ::looks a bit nervous about it::
CEO_Cathorn says:
::taps commbadge:: *EO*: Timmons get a team together for gear meet me in Transporter room one.
Host CO_Savar says:
::thinks for a moment::  COM: Xavier: What are your demands?
CEO_Cathorn says:
CTO: One please Lieutenant thank you.
CMO_Turok says:
::Raises an eyebrow::  CSO/Reyarc: Really?  ::Quickly bends his head forward a bit and checks the back of his neck, then leans around to check Harmony's as well.::
TO_Rowe says:
::comfortable with his armament he arrives in the TR to see his teams waiting there:: SecTeams: Well done team, we are heading to the Ironsword buckle up.
XO_Yeung says:
::instructs the transporter chief to beam the team on the bridge of the Ironsword::
CSO_Singh says:
CMO:  What was that for?
CEO_Cathorn says:
::enters TL:: Computer: Transporter room one.
Host SM_Arlene says:
<EO Roberts> CNS:  I just maybe able to do that.  I follow the Montgomery Scott rule of estimating you know.  ::Chuckles and drags some platings that are to go over the separate air vents for the chamber.:: I need to cover some of the vents.  Can you give me a hand?
CSO_Singh says:
::Reaches behind her head to feel for anything::

ACTION: Cmdr Yeung and his team are transported to the Ironsword.

Host CO_Savar says:
<Duty Ops officer>  ::Arrives on the Bridge and readies himself at his console::
CNS_Anuviel says:
::what the CSO said as she was leaving finally registers:: EO Roberts: Um... yes.... no... sort of... ::calls over a medic to help Roberts:: I have to go talk to the CSO a moment... I just realized something she said.
CMO_Turok says:
CSO: Just making sure you weren't carrying any "passengers".
CTO_Jarot says:
::nods::  CEO: Very well, I'll send one of my best sub chiefs with you...   *Johnson*: Jarot to Johnson... report to transporter room 1 on the double, full equipment...you will be the tactical liaison...
XO_Yeung says:
#::turns to TO:: TO: Secure the bridge, then send a team down to engineering to secure it for the engineers.
Host SM_Arlene says:
<EO Roberts> ::looks up:: CNS:  Okie dokie.  ::The medic comes over to give a hand.::
CMO_Turok says:
Reyarc: You are done.  I suggest you return to your quarters until this crisis has been resolved.
CSO_Singh says:
::Double checking, shakes her head::  CMO:  No... they did not near us at any time.
Reyarc says:
CMO:  Thank you doctor.
Reyarc says:
::Hops down from the table::

ACTION:  The fighters begin their run at the Ironsword.

CNS_Anuviel says:
::returns to Turok and the CSO:: CMO: The EO says the time estimate is now two hours...  and... CSO: Harmony, what did you say about an entity? What did it look like? How did it get excited?
CSO_Singh says:
Reyarc:  I need to get to the bridge, I should have already gone....
TO_Rowe says:
#::looks around and curses aloud:: XO: Seems we have been transported to the Ironsword. ::looks to his Alpha team leader to head to Engineering::
Reyarc says:
CSO:  I know.  And I know the way.
CEO_Cathorn says:
::exits TL  makes the short walk to TR1 meets Timmons grabbing his kit and weapon::
CMO_Turok says:
::Grunts and goes back to preparing for the upcoming operation.::
XO_Yeung says:
#::nods:: TO: I'll assess the ship's operational ability. Check its weapon systems.
CEO_Cathorn says:
::steps up on the transporter pad::
CSO_Singh says:
CNS:  Well, there was a rather large embryonic sac near the others.  When the CEO Approached it, it became very excited.  When he stepped away, it settled down.
EO_Timmons says:
::steps up on the transporter pad::
Host SM_Arlene says:
<Transporter chief> ::Transports the CEO without checking::
TO_Rowe says:
#::plants his own team at all of the entrances to the Ironsword and heads to the tac console:: XO: Aye sir.
CNS_Anuviel says:
::flinches a bit:: CSO: Offspring of some kind?
Reyarc says:
::Slips quietly from sickbay and heads for his quarters, hoping they are able to retrieve their stuff from the shuttle later::
Host SM_Arlene says:
@COM: CO: No demands.  Just leave us alone.  We want to grow as a community like you.
XO_Yeung says:
#::heads over to the OPS console and checks damage report for the ship::
CEO_Cathorn says:
#::materializes on the Ironsword weapon ready::
Host CO_Savar says:
COM: Xavier: You cannot invade our crewmates and territory and then ask to be left alone.  If you release the crewmembers you hold, we will do all that we can to find you a suitable home.
EO_Timmons says:
#::materializes on the Iron Sword muttering about transporter chiefs being over anxious::
CSO_Singh says:
CNS:  Hmmm... it is possible.  But I think it was this parasite the doctor was mentioning.
TO_Rowe says:
#COM: Luna: CO: Sir, this is Lt. Rowe from the Ironsword requesting control be returned to the Ironsword.
Host SM_Arlene says:
@<Xavier> COM: CO: Cannot do that.  It takes away our leverage.
CEO_Cathorn says:
#EO: Enough we can deal with that later.
Host CO_Savar says:
COM: Xavier: If you agree to cease your actions now, we will begin searching.  You will not have to give up your hold until we complete our part.
CNS_Anuviel says:
::nods:: CSO: Oh... yes. I thought you were describing something separate
EO_Timmons says:
CEO: Aye sir.
Host SM_Arlene says:
<EO Roberts> ::With a grunt, she puts the last cover onto the vent.::
Reyarc says:
::Arriving at his quarters, goes toward the window and sits down in the couch to watch what enfolds, his body and mind easily slipping into a meditative mood.::
CSO_Singh says:
CNS: It was separate.
Host CO_Savar says:
<Duty OPS> ::Intercepts the TO's call and releases control::  COM: TO: Lieutenant, Commander Yeung will have to input his command codes to have the Ironsword recognize him as her commander.
CNS_Anuviel says:
CSO: How big was it?
Host SM_Arlene says:
@<Xavier> ::Looks long and hard that what could be a possible host.:: COM: CO: Come on over and we will talk about it.
TO_Rowe says:
#::looks to the Commander:: COM: DutyOPS: Understood, Ironsword out.
Host CO_Savar says:
COM: Xavier: It suits me best to be here.  That way I can perform the duties I am promising you.
XO_Yeung says:
#TO: Hang on a moment. ::inputs the command codes::
CEO_Cathorn says:
#::moves down the corridor tapping commbadge:: XO: Cathorn to Cmdr Yeung.
Host SM_Arlene says:
@<Xavier> COM: CO: Then we have nothing to talk about.  We talk face to face or nothing.
TO_Rowe says:
#::when the Ironsword recognized the command codes he slaves the conn to his console and powers up shields::
XO_Yeung says:
#*CEO*: Ah, Lt. Cathorn, you've made it. Our security teams should have secured main engineering for you.
CSO_Singh says:
::Considers a moment::  CNS: it was rather large, probably larger then I am, though that is not saying much... there was something it reminded me of... I know, a huge birthing sac, only it moved.

ACTION: Two fighers fire warning shots across the bow of the Luna.

CTO_Jarot says:
::keeps monitoring the tactical controls as he finishes of the remaining Kaneda Fighters::
Reyarc says:
::The trembling through the ship does not disturb him::
CEO_Cathorn says:
#XO: Aye sir. ::enter TL:: Computer: ME.
TO_Rowe says:
#COM: Luna: CTO: Sir, Rowe here, request tactical systems link-up
Host CO_Savar says:
COM: Xavier: Can we meet in a central location?
CNS_Anuviel says:
::shudders with revulsion:: CSO: Ew... Well I think Savar needs to know about this though....
CNS_Anuviel says:
CSO: I'll return to the bridge with you unless the CMO needs me....
XO_Yeung says:
#::takes the helm of the Ironsword:: TO: How are our defenses?
Host SM_Arlene says:
<EO Roberts> ::exits the isolation chamber and closes the door she goes over to the Chiefs office.:: CMO:  Sir, you can check out the isolation chamber now if you like.  Any changes let me know.  I've programmed the console to change the atmosphere at your command.
CNS_Anuviel says:
CMO: Doctor? ::looks around to see where he is::
CSO_Singh says:
CNS:  I haven't exactly reported in, I had best go.
CNS_Anuviel says:
CSO: Go ahead... I'll catch up if I can.
CEO_Cathorn says:
#::exits the TL into ME weapon ready notices the security team and lowers his rifle:: EO: Diagnostics!
TO_Rowe says:
#::sees the XO take the conn and transfers the consoles operation to it:: XO: Shields operating at 75%.
CSO_Singh says:
::nods and heads out the door to the TL::  Computer, bridge.
EO_Timmons says:
#::startled by the command lowers his weapon moving to one of the main consoles:: CEO: Aye sir.
Host SM_Arlene says:
@COM: CO: Where?
TO_Rowe says:
#::looks at his readouts:: XO: I believe with some engineering magic we can get them to 90 or so.
CTO_Jarot says:
CO: Captain, we have 20 more Fighters to go...     COM: Ironsword: Understood, standby...   ::quickly moves his hand over the tactical controls and establishes a secure tactical connection with the Ironsword...  you will need to input your security codes.... Mr. Rowe..
XO_Yeung says:
#*CEO*: Lt. Cathorn, concentrate repair on the shields and weapons, then on to propulsion.
CSO_Singh says:
::Stepping from the TL, moves toward the captain::
Host CO_Savar says:
COM: Xavier: There is a moon that we are orbiting.
CEO_Cathorn says:
#*XO*: Aye sir.
TO_Rowe says:
#::inserts his codes and notices the link active, he gets the beta firing pattern from the Luna systems and programs it to the Ironsword’s systems::
Host SM_Arlene says:
@COM: CO: I'll meet you there.
Host CO_Savar says:
COM: Xavier: Agreed.  Fifteen of our minutes.
XO_Yeung says:
#::maneuvers the Ironsword into a supporting position to the Luna::
CSO_Singh says:
CO:  Meet whom where?
CEO_Cathorn says:
#moves to the main console pulling up the shields systems looks for where repairs are needed.
CMO_Turok says:
CNS: ::Looks up from a PADD::  What?
CNS_Anuviel says:
CMO: Do you need me?
XO_Yeung says:
#COM: CO: Captain, we've got full control of the Ironsword. We've currently got partial weapons and shields.
TO_Rowe says:
#COM: Luna: CTO: Link active sir. ::powers up  the Ironsword weapon and targeting systems
CEO_Cathorn says:
#Self: Should have brought another team... oh well. EO: Deck 4 section 9 get up there and close that relay.
EO_Timmons says:
#CEO: Aye sir. ::grabs his kit enters the TL:: Computer Deck 4.
Host SM_Arlene says:
@COM: CO: Fifteen minutes.
CTO_Jarot says:
COM: Ironsword: Understood...monitoring connection on this end...
CTO_Jarot says:
COM: Ironsword: Synchronizing attack patterns now... standby...
CMO_Turok says:
EO_Roberts: What?  It is ready now?!  First you say four hours, then two, and now it takes you twenty minutes!  Perhaps you can make do with such gross miscalculations in engineering, but not in my Sickbay!  When I ask you for something, I expect accuracy!  Am I clear?
TO_Rowe says:
#COM: Luna: CTO: Standing by for synchronization, we should have them out in a few more minutes together, sir
CNS_Anuviel says:
::cringes a bit at the force of the CMO's voice::
CEO_Cathorn says:
#::pulls up the weapons systems looking for problems::
Host CO_Savar says:
<Duty OPS> ::Senses the conversation is over and closes the channel::
CMO_Turok says:
CNS: Yes, assist the staff with preparing Jon's pod.  We will begin with her.
Host CO_Savar says:
All: Now then...
Host SM_Arlene says:
<EO Roberts> ::Winces at being yelled at.:: CMO:  Crystal Clear SIR!  ::Snaps to attention::
CSO_Singh says:
::Listens::
EO_Timmons says:
#::exits the TL running to the JT pulls the access hatch and quickly enters::
Host CO_Savar says:
CSO: Lieutenant, I will be meeting with this clone of Xavier, who apparently speaks for all of them.  CTO: Chief, you will be in charge of the Luna.  COM: XO: Commander, coordinate with the CTO.  DutyOPS: Have TR2 standing by with a full EVA/bio suit along with a subdermal locator.  Keep a full lock on me, beam me up immediately at the first sign of trouble
CMO_Turok says:
EO_Roberts: Fine.  Wait over there ::points::  if something goes wrong, I want you here to effect repairs::
CEO_Cathorn says:
#::grabs his kit enters TL:: Computer: Main fire control.
CSO_Singh says:
CO:  Wait a minute sir...
CNS_Anuviel says:
::goes to help prep Jon::
XO_Yeung says:
#COM: CO: Acknowledged, captain.
Host CO_Savar says:
CSO: Yes, Lieutenant?
CTO_Jarot says:
::nods at the CO::  CO: Aye, Captain...additional orders ?
Host CO_Savar says:
CTO: Keep her in one piece
XO_Yeung says:
#::turns around to TO:: TO: How's that synchro coming along?
CSO_Singh says:
CO:  You are not the first officer any more.  Your job is here aboard the ship.  It is other to go... talking.
CNS_Anuviel says:
::places the pod into the stasis area which has yet to be activated::
Host SM_Arlene says:
<EO Roberts> CMO:  Aye Sir...  ::Moves over to where the big Klingon pointed.::
CTO_Jarot says:
::smiles::  CO: Understood and will do...
EO_Timmons says:
#::finds the relay quickly checking for damaged components closes the  relay watching the power flow activate:: *CEO*: Relay is closed sir.
CEO_Cathorn says:
#*EO*: Good ensign now get back to ME.
EO_Timmons says:
#*CEO*: Aye sir.
TO_Rowe says:
#::nods:: XO: Fully operational sir, we are currently helping with exterminating the fighters.
CMO_Turok says:
*CO*: Captain, we are preparing to operate on Ensign Jon.
Host CO_Savar says:
CSO: The clone spoke to me, and expects me.  I have confidence in everyone's abilities to deal with my absence until I return.  In this instance, I would only think about sending the Counselor in my stead, but I do not believe she is ready for a diplomatic meeting of this magnitude
CSO_Singh says:
::Defiantly::  CO:  I have lost one captain, I do not plan on losing another.
CMO_Turok says:
::Watches as the stasis pod is moved into the chamber.::
XO_Yeung says:
#::nods to TO:: *CEO*: How are repairs coming along, Cathorn?
Host CO_Savar says:
::Looks back::  CSO: I have lost three Captains, Lieutenant.  We will not speak of loss, only of the gains that can be achieved with me performing my duties.
CEO_Cathorn says:
#::exits the TL runs to Main Fire control enters pulling his tricorder starts to scan as he taps his commbadge:: *XO*: Sir try the shields now.... checking the weapons now.
CMO_Turok says:
*Duty_OPS*: Operations, prepare to transport Ensign Jon from the stasis pod to the bio-bed inside the isolation chamber.  And note I said "prepare".  Wait for my signal.
CSO_Singh says:
CO:  If you want to get technical, your lose will be my third.  One was too much.
CSO_Singh says:
::Looks over toward Jarot for support::
Host SM_Arlene says:
<Duty Ops> *CMO*:  Standing By Sir...
XO_Yeung says:
#TO: Have the shields improved?
CMO_Turok says:
CNS: Alright, everyone out of the chamber.  Secure it and then prepare to assist.::
Host CO_Savar says:
CSO: What do you suggest, Lieutenant?  Disappoint the clones by sending someone in my stead, and having them kill all the hosts they control?
TO_Rowe says:
#::looks to the shield readouts:: XO: Great minds think alike sir, checking now ::pauses:: as I said earlier sir, we are at 90%.
CMO_Turok says:
::Begins firing up the isolation/chamber::
CNS_Anuviel says:
::exits the chamber and stands next to the CMO to assist::
XO_Yeung says:
#::smiles and nods:: *CEO*: Nice job, Lt. Keep up the good work.
CTO_Jarot says:
::looks over at Harmony, then at the CO::  CO: Captain, I do recommend you take a security team with you.... to be on the safe side of things...
CSO_Singh says:
::Thinking back to all those people stacked like logs, she bites her lip::  CO:  And what if they are lying and take you?  And can they even kill their hosts?  Wouldn't killing the hosts kill them?
CSO_Singh says:
::Looks gratefully at the CTO::
CEO_Cathorn says:
#::sets the tricorder down.. pops an access hatch looks at the burnt wiring and quickly begins to reroute stands up tapping commands into the console starts rerouting around the wires::
Host CO_Savar says:
CSO: If they are lying, I will be wearing a bio suit.  I do not believe parasites can invade me through that.  And, yes, they would likely kill their hosts.  They have discovered sexual reproduction abilities in their clones.
CEO_Cathorn says:
#::finish the rerouting taps the activate button and watches::
CMO_Turok says:
CNS: Counselor, please monitor the nitrogen flow on that panel.  If it rises above 25 isobars, or drops below 20, inform me at once.  Also, if you sense any awareness from Ensign Jon, inform me at once.
CSO_Singh says:
::Defiantly::  CO:  If you sneeze, I am beaming you up.  One other thing... we found a giant embryonic sac filled with the parasites... we believe.  It was larger then I am.  The counselor thought it significant.
CEO_Cathorn says:
#::watches the weapons systems activate smiling to himself taps his commbadge:: *XO*: Cmdr we have weapons sir.
TO_Rowe says:
#::still at TAC 1 on the Ironsword he checks the sensors for the status of the fighters::
CMO_Turok says:
::Engages the stasis program turning the chamber into a big stasis pod.::
CMO_Turok says:
::Checks the readings::
XO_Yeung says:
#*CEO*: Acknowledge. Continue repairs at your discretion.

ACTION: The isolation chamber becomes a large stasis chamber.

CEO_Cathorn says:
#*XO*: Aye sir.
CMO_Turok says:
CNS: Nitrogen flow?
CNS_Anuviel says:
::nods at the CMO, reaches out to sense the MO while watching the readings::
XO_Yeung says:
#::keeps the Ironsword backing up the Luna::
TO_Rowe says:
#::jumps back as the weapons suddenly dish out more of a "volley" than a scratch and smiles:: XO: That should make more of a difference sir.
CNS_Anuviel says:
CMO: Everything is as it should be, Sir.
CEO_Cathorn says:
#::picks up his tricorder heading back for the TL::
CMO_Turok says:
*Duty_OPS* : Engage site to site transport of Ensign Jon.

ACTION: A shuttle leaves Starbase 917 heading for the moon.  Approximately 10 fighters take up escort.

XO_Yeung says:
#::grins:: TO: Thought you'd like that, Lt.
Host SM_Arlene says:
<Duty_OPS> *CMO*:  Transporting now.  ::Hands run up the console and she locks onto Ens Jon.  She materializes into the isolation chamber.::
CMO_Turok says:
::Watches as the Ensign's inert body is moves two meters from inside the pod to the operating bio-bed in the new chamber.::
TO_Rowe says:
#::smiles:: XO: Great minds think alike sir. ::notices the fighters and shuttle:: XO: Were those scheduled?
Host CO_Savar says:
::Nods::  CSO: I will take as many precautions as I can.  I will remain a distance away from the clone.  If you detect anyone else there, beam me up as well.  Perhaps you should consider beaming in a second team piggybacking on my signal... complete the setup of the stasis area around the hosts and that sac
CMO_Turok says:
::Again checks the readings::
CSO_Singh says:
CO:  I can do that.
Host CO_Savar says:
CSO/CTO: Work together to keep the ship safe.  The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few, or the one.  ::On that note, he enters the TL and begins the ride down to TR2::
CTO_Jarot says:
::nods at the CO::  CO: Aye, Captain...  ::moves towards the center chair and takes seat::
XO_Yeung says:
#::checks the new fighters:: TO: Maybe. They don't seem to be a threat so let them by for now, but keep an eye on them.
CMO_Turok says:
::Seeing all is in readiness, inserts his hands into the gloves which allow a sterile connection to the inside of the room and begins the operation to remove the parasitic sac.::
TO_Rowe says:
#::nods:: XO: Aye sir.
CSO_Singh says:
::Glares at the closing door::  CTO:  Alec, if I ever come to believe that, knock some sense in me.
XO_Yeung says:
#::wonders what the next move is going to be...::
CTO_Jarot says:
::smiles::  CSO: Aye, I'll be sure to keep that in mind...  ::refocuses his attention the viewscreen and the tactical readouts from the bridge console::

ACTION: The shuttle lands on the moon and waits.  The fighters take up position in front of both the Luna and Ironsword.

CSO_Singh says:
::Glances at the time::  CTO:  I have ten minutes to get the second team ready... ::shakes her head::  and I don't even know the half of what is going on.
CSO_Singh says:
::Steps up to her station and pulls up the ships personnel::
Reyarc says:
::Opens his eyes with a sigh::
CNS_Anuviel says:
::keeps an eye on everything and a mental ear out::
