CNS_Luchena says:
@::has a splitting headache::

XO_Wilkens says:
*MO*: Mr. Daetalus, I'm headed your way. I'd like you to pull up any and all information you may have regarding the nanite technology.

CTO_Castillo says:

MO_Daetalus says:
*XO*: Aye sir

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@Koran: Good......Koran I want you to know that if things go badly...its been a pleasure serving with you ::smiles::

CTO_Castillo says:
::snaps a look at TO:: TO: you're beating me to the punch now, Lt.?

CNS_Luchena says:
@OPS:  I think so.  Where are we?

CEO_Jamin says:
::wonders how to make his analysis more clear::

XO_Wilkens says:
::As he emerges from the turbolift on Deck 7, he approaches and then enters Sickbay::

FCO_Tim says:

MO_Daetalus says:
:: attempts to pull up files, but a all too familiar access denied appears::

TO_Hull says:
CTO:  Sorry Sir, trying to help

CSO_Larek says:
::working through computer logs and files looking for any similiar logs and data::

OPS_Zax says:
@CNS: Now that is a long story.

SO_Thompson says:
CSO: Sir, with your permission, I'd like to coordinate with engineering in regards to tabulating all available data on the Oberth vessel.  It may assist us in calibrating the sensors.

MO_Daetalus says:
XO: Hi sir

Koran says:
@Pratts: I hope we prevail......the pleasure all mine.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::nods at the FCO::  FCO: Thank you Lt. Stricker.

XO_Wilkens says:
MO: Evening!

CTO_Castillo says:
TO: don't be sorry, be the best that you can be Lt. after all you have earned that right here with me. :: smiles at Hull::

FCO_Tim says:
CO: You are most welcomed Captain Vn'dor. ::grins::

TO_Hull says:
CTO:  Aye Sir!

OPS_Zax says:
@CNS: We were kidnapped and are being held here by a Commander Pratts.

XO_Wilkens says:
::Taps his badge:: *CEO*: Your analysis of our current ship status?

CSO_Larek says:
SO: Go ahead and I'LL keep checking the computer files.

CEO_Jamin says:
::on a whim, pulls up a childish, wide-lined rendering of an Oberth-class vessel::

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@Koran: We do not run this time.....and we are not to be taken prisoner.....Cloak Squad does not allow themselves to be taken prisoner.

CTO_Castillo says:
TO: just leave me something to do every once and a while. :: laughing::

SO_Thompson says:
CSO: Yes, sir.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
CSO: Mr. Larek, has Science detected any warp signatures matching that of the Orion Oberth class vessel in the vacinity?

CNS_Luchena says:
@OPS:  Held where, do you know?  ::feels a bit dizzy::

TO_Hull says:
::Returns the CTO's smile::

OPS_Zax says:
@CNS: He injected us with nanites while you were unconscious.

Koran says:
@Pratts: We also have person watching out for intruders in case they find us first.

FCO_Tim says:
::still sits on the bridge at the Conn.::

CEO_Jamin says:
*XO*: She still needs major repairs. Maximum recommended warp is six. Shield generators are stable, phaser banks are shaky.

CSO_Larek says:
CO: Not yet sir

CNS_Luchena says:
@Thinks to self:  Oh great!

MO_Daetalus says:
XO: Sir when LtCmdr Charn and myself were finished looking after the CO, CSO, and SO, LtCmdr Charn classified the data collected::

CTO_Castillo says:
TO: Hull, on a serious note, anything you have uncovered otherwise besides the beacon signal?

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@::nods:: They will come.....

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::nods::  CSO: Keep me informed of anything out of the ordinary.

XO_Wilkens says:
MO: What security level is required for access?

CEO_Jamin says:
*XO*: Some of the life support relays are intermittent.

CSO_Larek says:
CO: AYE

Koran says:
@Pratts: Are you saying that even me and you will stand and fight?

XO_Wilkens says:
*CEO*: Excellent, and our tactical systems?

CEO_Jamin says:
*XO*: So, we're in better shape than usual.

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@::twirls the knife some more and throws it sticking into the wall::

FCO_Tim says:
::sits patiently at the Conn.::

SO_Thompson says:
*CEO*: Sir, this is Ensign Thompson at Science 2.  I'd like to take a look at any data you might have on the Oberth-class vessel.  It would assist us in calibrating the sensors more accurately.

TO_Hull says:
::Adjusts the Sensors to localize the OPS and CNS Comm. Badges transponders:: CTO: Negative Sir, still updating the location of the OPS shuttle, trying to extrapolate possible routes from last 
known position

CNS_Luchena says:
@::rubs her eyes still trying to focus::

CTO_Castillo says:
TO: have you tried the route of the CNS's ship?

XO_Wilkens says:
*CEO*: Thanks to your engineering staff!

CEO_Jamin says:
*XO*: Tactical? ::frowns:: Well, uhm...as long as we don't need torpedoes, and our luck holds out with the phasers, fine.

OPS_Zax says:
@CNS: Will you be able to fight if you have to?

TO_Hull says:
CTO: Working in parallel Sir!

FCO_Tim says:
::is still sitting at the Conn.::

Koran says:
@Pratts: Shall I go check on the prisoners?

XO_Wilkens says:
*CEO*: Acknowledged. Out.

CNS_Luchena says:
@OPS:  Yes, I just need a few minutes here.  ::stands up and nearly falls over::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::taps his Comm. Badge::  *CEO*: Mr. Jamin, has your department been able to come up with any weaknesses should we run into more of those vessels modified like that 
Oberth class?

CTO_Castillo says:
TO: good man! Keep up the good work, Lt.

FCO_Tim says:
CO: Oh sir, request permission to also take over OPS till Lt. Zax returns?

CEO_Jamin says:
::goes back to the childish Oberth diagram and draws a big red 'X' on one of the nacelles::

OPS_Zax says:
@::grabs her arm:: CNS: Sit down Luna.

SO_Thompson says:
::looks for any signs of tell-tale warp signatures, energy readings, subspace distortions, etc. in the sensor data on the Oberth::

MO_Daetalus says:
XO: the security clearance is restricted to the admiralty, sir

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@Koran: Yes please.

XO_Wilkens says:
::Self: This nanite technology is past my authorization, at any rate::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
FCO: You have proven yourself very able to cross link in that department in the past.  Permission granted Lieutenant.

CNS_Luchena says:
@::sits down.  Tries to smile at Zax reassuringly but only manages to look ghastly::

CEO_Jamin says:
*CO*: Sir, as I already mentioned to the CTO, XO, and yourself, their warp engines are extremely vulnerable. Any damage there will effectively be multiplied.

Koran says:
@::goes to check on the prisoners::

FCO_Tim says:
CO: Noted sir! Thank you. ::takes over with OPS as well::

XO_Wilkens says:
MO: Understood. Knowing Starfleet Intelligence, it would certainly be futile in attempting to gain access...

CNS_Luchena says:
@::stands up again and only sways slightly this time::

MO_Daetalus says:
XO: yes sir:: grins::

SO_Thompson says:
::hearing the CEO's message to the CO, pays special attention to any sort of "bleed" the warp engines of the Oberth might give off::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::wonders if the withdrawn CEO is becoming too  sure of himself lately::

XO_Wilkens says:
MO: Thanks for your help. I'm reporting to the Bridge. ::Re-enters a turbolift and requests Deck One::

Koran says:
@::walks up to the cell and looks at the OPS and the CNS::

CEO_Jamin says:
::almost offers the crude, but bold, diagram to the CO, but refrains::

FCO_Tim says:
::as well as at the Conn., he monitor the OPS station::

OPS_Zax says:
@::stiffens and turns to look at Koran::

CNS_Luchena says:
@::tries to focus on Koran::

MO_Daetalus says:
:: continues going over recent scans and newly connected information::

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@::gets up retrieving his knife::

CEO_Jamin says:
*CO*: Aside from that, it's just like any other ship....with modified systems, but normal.

XO_Wilkens says:
::Steps from the turbolift car and approaches his position beside the Captain::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::notes the Commander's arrival and nods briefly at him::  *CEO*: Thank you Mr. Jamin.  Vn'dor out.

Koran says:
@OPS,CNS: Are you holding on?

CTO_Castillo says:
::taking in long range sensor readings for any Oberth class ships::

CSO_Larek says:
::Labors over his scans::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::turns to the XO::  XO: How is the progress on the nanites?

TO_Hull says:
CTO:  Sir, sensors are compiling additional telemetry from the transponders signals, it was not the OPS shuttle, just her Comm. Badge, there was no shuttle residual matter located at the last known position

OPS_Zax says:
@Koran: We're having a blast...how about you?

CEO_Jamin says:
::shakes his head, wondering how many more times he'll be asked::

CNS_Luchena says:
@::wonders what the heck Koran is talking about.  Looks at him with interest::

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@::decides to join Koran::

CMO_Varr says:
::ears perks up at the mention of nanites::

CTO_Castillo says:
TO: really? so she doesn't have her Comm. Badge?

FCO_Tim says:
::shift in his seat from uncomfortably, wonders about the OPS and CNS::

Koran says:
@OPS: I hope you don't think I'm enjoying this?

XO_Wilkens says:
CO: Evening, sir. Unfortunately, my research into the nanite technology is futile. All computer records containing mention of this technology is classified, and all records are restricted to access granted only to Admiralty.

OPS_Zax says:
@Koran: Well, I know I'm not......

CNS_Luchena says:
@::wishes her telepathic senses were working::

CEO_Jamin says:
::sighs and deletes the troublesome diagram::

TO_Hull says:
CTO:  I didn’t say that Sir, her badge stopped transmitting, it could of simply be out of power

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@Koran: How are our guests?

OPS_Zax says:
@Koran: He's going to get you all killed you know.

CMO_Varr says:
::brow furrows::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
XO: Admiralty?  ::turns back to the FCO::  FCO: Mr. Stricker, open a subspace channel to Starbase 78 and transfer it to my Ready Room.

Koran says:
@OPS: I expect that to happen.

CTO_Castillo says:
TO: fascinating. so if we needed to beam her out we can still use her badge as a lock on signal?

SO_Thompson says:
CSO: Sir, sensors indicate the presence of a faint warp trail that matches the configuration of the Oberth.

OPS_Zax says:
@Koran: You're willing to die for him?

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
XO: You have the bridge Commander.  ::turns and enters the RR::

Koran says:
@::whispers:: Pratts: Barely alive.

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@::hears Zax, sighs::

FCO_Tim says:
CO: Opening channel, sir. They are standing by.

Koran says:
@OPS: I died when the Federation betrayed me.

XO_Wilkens says:
CO: Understood, sir.

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@::opens the cell::

FCO_Tim says:
::transfers subspace to CO's RR::

TO_Hull says:
TO: Theoretically Sir!

CEO_Jamin says:
::opens an intraship comm. to check on some repairs::

XO_Wilkens says:
::Eases himself into the center seat::

OPS_Zax says:
@Koran: that same Federation can save you both.....

CSO_Larek says:
CO: Sir we are picking up a trail now data being feed to helm

SO_Thompson says:
XO: Sir, sensors indicate a faint warp trail that matches the configuration of the Oberth.

MO_Daetalus says:
:: continues to look over files and documents samples::

OPS_Zax says:
@::watches him open the door::

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@::backhands Zax very hard:: OPS: Shut up!!!! Quit playing mind games with us!!!

TO_Hull says:
CTO:  Comm. Badges Sir, only have enough power for two weeks, and must be recharged in a replicator

XO_Wilkens says:
SO: Track it's course and heading. Attempt to determine a probably point of origin and destination.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::moves around the side of his desk and takes a seat tapping the terminal's view screen into activity::  COM: SB78: U.S.S. Pendragon to Starbase 78, request channel directly to Admiral Harlan.

CNS_Luchena says:
@::watches the door open and tenses::

OPS_Zax says:
@:head snaps back::

OPS_Zax says:
@::kicks him in the groin::

CNS_Luchena says:
@Pratt:  Hey!

SO_Thompson says:
XO: Aye, sir.

CTO_Castillo says:
TO: any cases where they have not been able to beam out due to an out of charge badge?

Koran says:
@::watches Pratts hit her and walks away::

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@::blocks, side kicking her in the chest::

CNS_Luchena says:
@::tries to grab Pratt so OPS can get him again::

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@OPS: You're training is no match for me!!

SO_Thompson says:
::plots a vector based on warp trail and then extrapolates a possible trajectory::

XO_Wilkens says:
SO: Relay the information to Science II. ::Moves to one of the science consoles at the aft section of the Bridge, to further analyze the SO's data::

CEO_Jamin says:
::grumbles at an engineer about their lack of progress on one of the launchers, then cuts the channel::

Host Adm_Harlan says:
::looks up as her aid puts through an open request she has set up with the Pendragon’s Captain::

OPS_Zax says:
@::falls but recovers::

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@::throws CNS across the room::

CNS_Luchena says:
@::grabs Pratt's arm and twists it hard::

Host Adm_Harlan says:
COM: CO:  Captain, what can I do for you?

SO_Thompson says:
XO: Yes, sir. ::transmits data to SCI 2::

FCO_Tim says:
::still sits wondering about the OPS and CNS, wondering if the Pendragon can save them and wonders if he is helping by doing his job::

OPS_Zax says:
@::aims a blow at his head::

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@::grunts, aikido reverses her grip and flips her::

CTO_Castillo says:
TO: what about our Lt. Zax?

XO_Wilkens says:
::Keys the console on and glances over the data::

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@::catches her fist::

CEO_Jamin says:
<EO Jaff> CEO: Sir, the calibration is done.

Koran says:
@::walks back in and sees fighting::

CNS_Luchena says:
@::falls on the floor on her back.  Scrambles to her feet::

SO_Thompson says:
::begins scanning along the projected trajectory of the Oberth for a possible destination::

CEO_Jamin says:
::nods, and goes to check on his work::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::notes the Admiral appearance on screen and smiles::  COM: Adm:  Admiral, sorry to raise you on short notice, but we have a dilemma here on the ship requiring Admiral's access.  I was wondering if you could help.

OPS_Zax says:
@::jabs Pratts in the eye::

XO_Wilkens says:
::Deeply in thought, he regards the information and uploads it to the Captain's Ready Room:: FCO: What's our current heading and speed?

CNS_Luchena says:
@::kicks Pratt in the shins::

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@::head jerks back:: CNS: Is that all you have? ::pulls out his knife::

CNS_Luchena says:
@::scratches Pratt on the face with her fingernails::

Host Adm_Harlan says:
::looks at him wearily::  COM:  CO:  If I can... I make no promises

CMO_Varr says:
::looks at the station where he is sitting and sees he has a message waiting::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::notices information come through from the bridge::

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@::elbows Luchena::

CMO_Varr says:
::reading it, he forwards it to the crew::

OPS_Zax says:
@::kicks the knife and watches in fly across the room::

CEO_Jamin says:
::checks over the warp bubble analysis and is actually pleased::

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@::punches Zax in the neck::

CNS_Luchena says:
@::punches Pratt in the stomach::

OPS_Zax says:
@::grabs the knife::

Koran says:
@::grabs OPS by the neck and slams her into the wall::

FCO_Tim says:
XO: Sir current speed in warp factor 6 and we are following Lt. Zax last known where-abouts sir!

CEO_Jamin says:
::makes one last, minor adjustment to the plasma flow, then taps his COMM badge::

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@::grabs Luchena and puts her in a choke hold::

OPS_Zax says:
@::cuts Koran's face as she falls::

Host Adm_Harlan says:
ACTION:  The opponents tire, all three the worse for wear.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
COM: Adm: Ma'am, it concerns are present mission.  We wish access to all information concerning LtCmdr Charn's research into the nanite project.  We believe it is VERY possible our missing crew members may be in danger.

Koran says:
@::feels cut and looks at OPS::

TO_Hull says:
CTO:  Nothing Sir!

CNS_Luchena says:
@::moves beside OPS::

OPS_Zax says:

Koran says:
@OPS: Give me the knife please.

CEO_Jamin says:
*XO*: Sir, I think we're ready for Warp 9...carefully.

XO_Wilkens says:
SO: Relay the probable course projection to Flight Control. FCO: Mr. Stricker, prepare a course for the coordinates provided by Science, but maintain our current heading and speed.

CSO_Larek says:
XO: Sir we are coming up on a planet with normal fauna and vegetation and a building

SO_Thompson says:
::continues scanning along the projected flight path of the Oberth, looking for possible destinations, or perhaps the vessel itself::

Koran says:
@::looks at Pratts::

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@OPS: I'll take that...

OPS_Zax says:
@::looks at Koran::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::waiting patiently for the Admiral's response::

CNS_Luchena says:
@::eyes Pratt evilly::

Host Adm_Harlan says:
::looks solemnly at the Phail::  CO:  Captain, as far as Starfleet is concerned, those nanites never existed.  You are welcome to the data that is there, but I tell you in confidence that it has all been altered and reads as nothing more then failed research.

FCO_Tim says:
XO: Aye sir, standing by for new coordinates.

SO_Thompson says:
XO: Aye, sir.  ::relays projected course to FCO::

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@CNS, OPS: That was fun.....weak idiots ::leaves::

XO_Wilkens says:
::Smiles smugly and moves away from the science II instruments, careful to toggle the power switch into the off configuration:: *CEO*: Excellent.

OPS_Zax says:
@Pratts: If you keep Koran away from us, I'll give you the knife.

TO_Hull ::Widens Sensor range to ultimate maximum rated output:: (Console.wav)

CNS_Luchena says:
@:;sends evil thoughts after Pratt::

XO_Wilkens says:
FCO: Slowly increase velocity to warp eight.

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@::pulls out a phaser::

CEO_Jamin says:
*XO*: But...I'd rather we didn't press it past that until I've had time to analyze the results at nine.

FCO_Tim says:
SO: I got um. XO: OK, setting course to adjust.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::sighs looking off screen in contempt::  COM: Adm: And perhaps you can tell me just who's bright idea that was?

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@::stuns both of them::

Koran says:
@OPS,CNS: You can't be doing this.

FCO: Stand by, on my mark.

Koran says:
@Pratts: How do you expect me to protect you if you start fights?

XO_Wilkens says:
FCO: Go to warp eight--Slowly, now, we don't want to break anything!

Host Adm_Harlan says:
COM: CO:  Captain, Phail... you already know more than you should.  For that matter, so do I.  This is under the jurisdiction of Starfleet Intelligence.  Let it go.  I believe Cmdr. Charm has done her best to help clear up a mess that should never have occurred.

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@Koran: Oh I just wanted a warm up before the Federation got here ::smiles::

FCO_Tim says:
XO: Yes sir, standing by. ::goes to warp 8 slowly:: Aye sir!

Koran says:
@Pratts: Leave me with these two for a second please.

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@::looks at him, leaves::

OPS_Zax says:
@::begins to stir::

SO_Thompson says:
CSO: I take it we're still having trouble with some of the ship's systems, sir? ::small smile::

FCO_Tim says:
XO: I would never try to break anything but sometimes this ship pilots itself! ::grins and chuckles::

CNS_Luchena says:
@::decides to just lay here for awhile::

Host Adm_Harlan says:
::looks down as the channel closes, understanding his frustration.  Sighs heavily and forwards the message onto Red... this was partly his mess::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::re-enters the bridge and comes to T.J.'s side and whispers::  XO: No help from Starfleet Commander.

OPS_Zax says:

FCO: Lay in a course, alter speed and heading as necessary, keep her steady.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
XO: A little of both I believe, unfortunately it all starts at "unwilling"  ::takes his seat::

OPS_Zax says:
@::watches him leave with a frown on her face::

CEO_Jamin says:
*XO*: Sir, if I could watch the engines at warp nine, it might be helpful.

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@::walks to a window of the complex looking out::

CNS_Luchena says:
@OPS:  do you think he is trying to help us?

XO_Wilkens says:
CO: Captain, we've received an update from Mr. Hull on OPS and CNS's last position. We are altering course as needed.

CMO: hello sir

XO_Wilkens says:
FCO: Do we have any idea as to their current location?

CNS_Luchena says:
@OPS:  Are you all right?

CMO_Varr says:
MO:  Ensign.  How can I help you?

FCO_Tim says:

CTO_Castillo says:
TO: sounds good. CO/XO: ETA is 10 min. at present speed at 142 mark 21 thanks to Mr. Hull

XO_Wilkens says:
*CEO*: Yes?

FCO_Tim says:
XO: I have located the position flare, it is very close sir, but we have to slow to impulse power.

CNS_Luchena says:
@OPS:  Do you think this is a trap for the Pendragon?

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@Koran: Yes...and more will join our cause...

XO_Wilkens says:
FCO: Do so immediately.

CEO_Jamin says:
*XO*: The test?

@Koran: They were merely bait....

CMO_Varr says:

CNS_Luchena says:
@~~~~~CEO:  Jamin, no he is holding us prisoner.  And setting a trap for you all.~~~~

SO_Thompson says:
CSO: I'll take over for you here, sir, if you'd like.

MO_Daetalus says:
CMO: may I come to sir?

CNS_Luchena says:
@OPS:  I hope he got all that.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
FCO: As soon as everyone arrives we can start this meeting and you can bring this up.

CEO_Jamin says:
~~~CNS: A trap? What is it?~~~

OPS_Zax says:
@CNS: I hope so too.

CEO_Jamin says:
CO: Sir....

CEO_Jamin says:
CO: Sir...it's Lun...err, the Counselor. She says Pratt's laid out some sort of trap for us.

OPS_Zax says:
@::sighs:: CNS: Luna? You better tell him about the nanites as well.

SO_Thompson says:
CSO: Understood, sir. Enjoy the meeting.

CNS_Luchena says:
@OPS:  I think he's got it.  Oh, right, the nanites.  Must I?

CMO_Varr says:
::adds a group command to the program enabling the nanites to work together, and begins working on some group strategies::

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@::takes in a breath of fresh air:: Good day for a fight.......

Koran says:
@Pratts: I will ready the men.

OPS_Zax says:
@::nods:: CNS: Please do.

CMO_Varr says:
::Exits the lift onto the bridge and moves to the lounge::

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@::nods::

CTO_Castillo says:
All: that would be definite, being they know we are not just going to leave them behind. A trap is most logical.

CNS_Luchena says:
@~~~~CEO:  plus, we've been injected with nanites.~~~~

CNS_Luchena says:
@::sighs::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:

CEO_Jamin says:
CO: She says they've been injected with nanites. ::frowns::

MO_Daetalus says:
:: sits behind the CMO::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
CEO: She who!?  Whatever are you talking about?

CMO_Varr says:
::looks up at the CEO's statement::

@::looks at the landscape, the plant life::

CMO_Varr says:
::the PADD creaks under his grip as he stares at the CEO::

CNS_Luchena says:
@::senses Jamin's frustration::  Thinks to self:  Oh no.

CMO_Varr says:
CEO:  How do you know this?

MO_Daetalus says:
:: is listening intently::

CNS_Luchena says:
@::wonders if she will ever see Varr again.  Sighs deeply::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::stands::  CEO: The Counselor!?  How is she?  Is Lt. Zax with her?

FCO_Tim says:
::looks interested to how the CEO will respond::

CEO_Jamin says:
::turns to the CMO, noticing his white-knuckled grip out of the corner of his eye:: CMO: She's talked to me telepathically....

CTO_Castillo says:
::is now watching the CEO and his efforts with an apparent link with the CNS::

Koran says:
@Pratts: The men are ready they will fight to the death.

CEO_Jamin says:
CO: They've been injected with nanites, but seem all right. She said this was a trap...to be careful.

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@Koran: Good Koran........

Koran says:
@Pratts: Are you ready?

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::nods::  CEO: Fill us in on what you know Commander.  ::motions to the table and sits::

OPS_Zax says:
@::drags the ribbon out of her hair and shoves her hair away from her face::

CTO_Castillo says:
All: if we're dealing with the Squad this could be pay back for what we did to their little operation

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@Koran: I'm ready.

CEO_Jamin says:
::closes eyes in concentration for an instant:: ~~~CNS: Luna, where ARE you?~~~

SO_Thompson says:
*CSO*: Sir, Ensign Thompson here. Sorry to bother you, but I have an idea that you might be 
interested in...

FCO_Tim says:
CTO: Let's hope not!

Koran says:
@Pratts: They will be here any minute.

CEO_Jamin says:
::leans against the table as a bead of sweat rolls down the side of his face::

CMO_Varr says:
::taking a calming breath, and then another, he focuses again on the programming, adding another nasty subroutine that will definitely give his an edge::

CTO_Castillo says:
FCO: it is trust me these are bloodthirsty soldiers for hire, they would do something like this.

SO_Thompson says:
::analyzes the natural energy field to try an ascertain the possibility of transmitting a signal of some kind, any kind, through the disturbance::

CSO_Larek says:
*SO* Speak to me**

CEO_Jamin says:
::wonders if he's lost contact:: CO: That's all I know so far...

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@Koran: Good, hate waiting for a fight....

CNS_Luchena says:
@~~~~~CEO:  We are in a holding cell on a planet.~~~~~

OPS_Zax says:
@::begins to twist the ribbon around her hands...imagining Pratt's neck::

FCO_Tim says:
CTO: I know you may be correct but to bring a positive side to this, we must have faith that they will 
get out of this.

Koran says:
@Pratts: I will be back. ::walks away::

CEO_Jamin says:
::winces again:: CO: They're in a holding cell on a planet. ~~~CNS: What planet?~~~

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
CEO: Thank you Commander.  ::turns to the rest at the table::  Obs Lounge:  Opinions, options, ideas?

CNS_Luchena says:
@OPS:  Jamin is asking where we are.  What planet?

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@::watches him::

CTO_Castillo says:
FCO: I have not lost faith, yet I am prepared for whatever may come and so should we, Lt.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::looks to the CTO to start::

SO_Thompson says:
*CSO*: Well, even though the sensors can't cut through the energy field on the planet, that's not to say that some other forms of energy might not be successful. 

CNS_Luchena says:
@::hates keeping a link open with Jamin, but what else can she do?::

CTO_Castillo says:
::looks at the CO:: CO: it obvious that this is a trap 

CEO_Jamin says:
::relaxes his mind a little, still listening:: CO: Sir, I rigged up something in engineering...with all these nanite dealings...

OPS_Zax says:
@::looks up from the ribbon::

FCO_Tim says:
CTO: Well I have not either, not in this or in life itself. I'm am ready for anything and know I'll overcome it. We will prevail!

CMO_Varr says:
::looking back over his program making sure he has left nothing out, he finishes with a sleep command to repeat the cycle, then drops the program to one of the nanite programming bays in sickbay so that they will be waiting for him when he arrives back there::

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@::walks to a console::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::nods at the CTO::  CTO: And how do you wish to proceed?

OPS_Zax says:
@CNS: Alpha Carinae.

SO_Thompson says:
*CSO*: I suggest we launch a probe to the surface of the planet, modified to transmit telemetry via some form of energy whose wavelength will penetrate the field.

CTO_Castillo says:
CO: it is obvious that this might be just to get us out here for something of a greater scale than just revenge maybe to infect us all for pay back, we must prepare for all possibilities

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@::activates 10 planetary defense drones, to attack the intruding ship::

CNS_Luchena says:
@~~~~CEO:  Apparently we are being held on Alpha Carinae.~~~~

CEO_Jamin says:
CO: Alpha Carinae!  ::spins to face the XO:: XO: NOW can we test the engines?

FCO_Tim says:
All: We must think of the most sensible and logical way to win. That will be the key to victory.

Koran says:
@::walks into the cell and looks at the OPS and CNS::

SO_Thompson says:
*CSO*: At the very least, it may give us a glimpse of what's down there before we send an away team, if that's what we intend doing.

CSO_Larek says:
*SO*:I'II ask the CO

Host Karriaunna says:
ACTION:  The Pendragon finds itself under attack by drones

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
Obs_Lounge:  Anyone have anything to add to Lt. Castillo's thoughts?

SO_Thompson says:
*CSO*: Understood, sir.

XO_Wilkens says:
CTO: What sort of possibilities are we looking at, were we to send in some sort of tactical ground team?

TO_Hull says:
CTO: Sir, incoming attack vessels, unmanned

CTO_Castillo says:
ALL::... both positive and negative, being that we are dealing with hostages we need to proceed with caution. 

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@::watches the screen::

CMO_Varr says:

FCO_Tim says:
CO: We must think of the most sensible and logical way to win. That will be the key to victory.

OPS_Zax says:
@::snaps the ribbon taut once again::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
::hears the explosions and feels the ship rock::  Obs_Lounge: Red Alert!  Everyone to your stations!  ::rushes out of the Lounge::

CTO_Castillo says:
CO: Captain we are currently under attack my TO has informed me, by unmanned drones.

XO_Wilkens says:
::Feels the deck shiver beneath his feet, and then buck and he feels the desk pushed into his 
midsection::

ACTION:  The ship goes nowhere....

SO_Thompson says:
CO: Sir, sensor analysis indicates that the increase in energy on the planet's surface is in direct proportion to the loss of energy aboard the Pendragon.

TO_Hull ::Drones on reciprocal course, targeting:: (All Weapons FIRE!.wav)

CSO_Larek says:
CO: Recommend we send a drone to the planet to send back information

CEO_Jamin says:
::finds nothing with the drones:: *CSO*: Have you found anything on this power drain?

Koran says:
@::they arrive outside::

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@::sighs::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
SO: Are we in transporter range?

FCO_Tim says:
::maneuvers to fit the attack patters of the fire::

OPS_Zax says:
@::walks out of the building::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
CSO: Acknowledged.  Launch probe.

CMO_Varr says:
::sees the second group complete the upload and makes another dose::

TO_Hull CTO: Continuing defensive fire Sir! (All Weapons FIRE!.wav)

CTO_Castillo says:
*CEO*: is there any way we can jam the drones from operating?

XO_Wilkens says:
CO: Sir, if we have the computer records from our encounter with the Oberth-class vessel, we could disguise ourselves as one of their allied ships. As they are automated, it's extremely likely they would cease their attack.

CNS_Luchena says:
@::follows Zax::

OPS_Zax says:
@::is looking for a way out::

Koran says:
@OPS,CNS: Walk this way. ::walks::

FCO_Tim says:
::maneuvers again to fit the fire pattern::

CSO_Larek says:
CO: Aye ::Launches probe::

Host Karriaunna says:
ACTION:  5 of the drones are destroyed

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
XO: Do you think they'll fall for it this late in the battle?

OPS_Zax says:
::follows Koran::

Cmdr_Pratts says:
@::listens as teams check in with their status::

CEO_Jamin says:
*CTO*: I'll see what I can do, but don't count on it.

SO_Thompson says:
CO: Yes, sir, we're in range, but the energy disturbance on the planet would greatly interfere with transport.  

XO_Wilkens says:
CO: I'm not sure. Should worse come to worse, we should at least consider it an option.

TO_Hull ::Fires standoff weapons to disguise the probe launch:: (All Weapons FIRE!.wav)

CSO_Larek says:
CEO: not yet I just launched a probe to the surface

Koran says:
@OPS,CNS: I sorry I have to do this but.......

CTO_Castillo says:
*CEO*: we need a miracle and that is what I'm counting on sir!

FCO_Tim says:
::once again is maneuvering to fit the fire::

CEO_Jamin says:
*CTO*: Understood.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
XO: Worth a shot anyway.  CSO:  Use our sensor readings on the Oberth vessel to mask our own readings to the equivalent

CTO_Castillo says:
CO: Captain, 5 drones down!

CSO_Larek says:
CO: Aye sir

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
CTO: Good work.  Anything else on sensors?

OPS_Zax says:
@::turns quickly and stands in front of Luna::

TO_Hull Firing Photons, full spread (Torpedos.wav)

OPS_Zax says:
@Koran: Do what?

CNS_Luchena says:
@::wonders if she is about to die::

FCO_Tim says:
::maneuvers for the full spread fire::

SO_Thompson says:
::wonders if we lowered our power output, would that decrease the energy surge on the planet::

Koran says:
@OPS,CNS: You see that rock? ::points at the rock::

OPS_Zax says:
@::nods::

CNS_Luchena says:
@::steps from behind Zax and moves beside her::

OPS_Zax says:
@::is beginning to understand::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
CTO: Shield status.

CEO_Jamin says:
::runs a quick simulation:: *CTO*: If we release some gravitons into the shield emitters, then QUICKLY expand the shields, it might slap those drones silly. I don't know how well the shields will take it though.

CMO_Varr says:
::creates ten doses in all, and puts them into a small hip pack, loading two into two hypos, and putting those in his pockets::

Koran says:
@OPS,CNS: We will be dead soon so hide there until the battle is over and go back to your ship.

Host Karriaunna says:
ACTION:  The rest of the drones are destroyed

SO_Thompson says:
::monitoring the probe, looking for any new info on the energy field::

CTO_Castillo says:
CO: 5% shields yet the CEO might have a plan to knock out the drones completely!

CNS_Luchena says:
@::Looks at Koran in shock::

CTO_Castillo says:
*CEO*: go for it!

OPS_Zax says:
@Koran: Why?

CMO_Varr says:
MO:  Ensign.

MO_Daetalus says:
:: continues to prep sickbay::

FCO_Tim says:
::still sits at the Conn., monitoring our flight systems::

TO_Hull says:
CTO: Sir, shields now down to 80%

MO_Daetalus says:
CMO: Sir:: looks up from his preparation::

Koran says:
@OPS: You must hurry.

CEO_Jamin says:
*CTO*: It could wreck the shields... *CO*: Sir?

CTO_Castillo says:
::snaps a look at Mr. Hull:: TO: what? I thought you said ... 

OPS_Zax says:
@::nods:: Koran: Come with us? ::already knows what the answer will be::

CTO_Castillo says:
CO: sorry we are 80%

FCO_Tim says:
::still sits at the Conn., monitoring our flight systems::

Koran says:
@OPS: I'm dead already so go.

TO_Hull says:
CTO: Sir, What about a anti-tachyon pulse from the deflector dish, it should disable those ships impulse engines

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:
*CEO* The drones have been destroyed Commander, but keep the plan in reserve.

OPS_Zax says:
@::nods again:: Koran: Thank you.....

CNS_Luchena says:
@::hides behind rock::  Koran:  Thank you.

CEO_Jamin says:
::breaths a sigh of relief:: *CO*: Understood.

CMO_Varr says:
MO: ::grabbing a medkit::  I have a nanite program in the system that I want you to use to create ten doses of 5ccs of nanite each for use on anyone who has been subjected to the anti-life nanites.
