Host CO-Rofax says:
Captain's Log - SD 10403.27

After some legal wrestling and much explaining, the Federation was able to set things back to order.  The diplomats ensured our release and the Pendragon is now enroute to investigate reports of a supernova.  We have been enroute for approximately 10 days now and are drawing near.

CNS_Luchena says:
::heads up to the bridge so he can see it on the big screen::

Host CO-Rofax says:
::seated in the RR, finishing with some long overdue correspondence::

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
:: deep in the bowels of a Jeffries tube ::

CSO_Toms says:
::In his quarters, going over some of the stuff his latest Counseling session turned up, trying to calm himself::

CMO_T`Cal says:
::In her office reading over various reports on physicals by her Junior Medical Staff:: Self: Most of the Senior Staff still need their physicals conducted.

XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
::sitting in his chair on the bridge, looking at the view screen but hardly paying attention:: All: Report.

FCO_Ens_White says:
::At the helm whistling quietly to himself::

Host Cat says:
Action: The USS Pendragon has been dispatched to the Slymara System to investigate the apparent impending collapse of the systems primary star.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
XO:  We are coming into range.  All sensor systems report ready, Sir.

CNS_Luchena says:
::enters the bridge and nods at the FCO::

FCO_Ens_White says:
::looks at the helm station and after a moment locates the little number indicating the ETA::

CNS_Luchena says:
::takes his chair::

Host CO-Rofax says:
::sighs loudly to no one but himself and re-reads the letter from Tria::

FCO_Ens_White says:
::reads over it again and nods:: XO: ETA is Two minutes sir.

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
:: a fat blue-white spark jumps from the conduit to the tool he's holding :: Self: Ah! Frelling ##CENSORED## with a half-rotted ##CENSORED## !!

XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
::nods slowly:: OPS: Contact the senior bridge crew and have them report for duty, whether it's their shift or not.

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
:: adjusts tool, tries again ::

Host Cat says:
Action: Thraxis fries his finger just a wee bit.

XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
::opens a comm channel to the RR:: *CO*: ETA is two minutes, Captain.

CNS_Luchena says:
XO:  Nearly there.  ::grins::

CMO_T`Cal says:
::She taps a few buttons making various notes:: *Ens. Miranda*: Ensign I would like to speak with you in my office.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
*ALL*:  All senior staff report to duty stations.  I repeat, all senior staff report to duty stations.

FCO_Ens_White says:
::remembers seeing the CNS nodding to him when he was locating the little number and nods back::

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
:: bites lip and makes another try :: Self: I *will* not lose my temper this time...

Host CO-Rofax says:
*XO* Thank you, Cmdr.  I am on my way.  ::logs off the console and crosses to the display case near the far wall::

FCO_Ens_White says:
::stops his annoying whistling and quietly contemplates the helm::

XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
::looks over to the counselor and smiles softly:: CNS: Nearly at our destination, there is a very slight difference

OPS_Pettigrove says:
XO:  Shall I begin scanning, Sir?

CSO_Toms says:
::hears com, gets up and heads out the door and towards the bridge::

CMO_T`Cal says:
::Hears the call for all Senior Staff and thinks for a moment:: Self: Sickbay is my place of duty I assume. ::She watches Mister Miranda walk into her office::

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
:: hears summons, files it for future reference :: Self: One more...

CNS_Luchena says:
::looks at the XO::  XO: Slight difference?

CMO_T`Cal says:
<Ens. Miranda>CMO: You wanted to see me ma'am? ::Standing in the door way::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::doesn't wait for the XO ... commences scanning::

XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
::looks over to the Science station:: OPS: Divert power to the LRS pallets and wait for CSO Toms to get up here...can't have him being bored ::grins::

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
:: is finally rewarded with the smooth hum of a correctly tuned EPS conduit ::

CSO_Toms says:
::gets into the TL and heads for the bridge::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::diverts the power:: XO:  Aye, Sir. ::grins to herself::

Host CO-Rofax says:
::steps to one of the plaques and sighs happily::  Out loud: Welcome home old friend...

FCO_Ens_White says:
::watches the pre-programmed flight course execute itself and continues to contemplate the panel, moving his hands over it in apparently meaningful movements without touching any buttons::

CMO_T`Cal says:
Miranda: Ensign I would like you to schedule times for every member of the crew that is due for a physical. After this is done please send the schedule to the appropriate personnel and myself.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
XO:  Sir, scans show that the super nova will collapse in approximately 12 hours.

XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
::turns back to Mikal with a slight grin:: CNS: We are never truly "almost there", just nearly at the next destination on our long, long journey

Host CO-Rofax says:
::exits RR and onto the bridge::

CNS_Luchena says:
XO:  Life is a long song, Sir.  But the tune ends too soon for us all.

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
:: starts backing out of the Jeffries tube ... taps commbadge :: *CO*: Bridge, this is Thraxis. Final adjustments on deflector systems EPS grid complete. I'm on my way up.

XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
::smiles slightly at Jordan's enthusiasm:: OPS: Thank you, Lt.

CMO_T`Cal says:
<Ens. Miranda>CMO: Understood ma'am. I will get on it right away. ::He exits her office::

CSO_Toms says:
::arrives on the bridge and heads to SCI 1, logs in and checks on the status of the sensor arrays::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::smiles at him:: XO:  That's Lt Cmdr, Sir.

Host CO-Rofax says:
*CEO* Excellent work Chief.  I have a hunch we will taxing your handiwork before this mission is over.

CNS_Luchena says:
::nods at the Captain as he takes his seat::

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
:: stows tools and heads for the turbo lift ::

XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
::chuckles softly:: OPS: You will excuse me, Lt. Cmdr. I have a thing about using long titles, and often vary. You'll have to get used to me using one or the other.

Host CO-Rofax says:
::slows and nods in return to Mikal::  ~~~ CNS: How is everyone adjusting to being back on board?  Any surprises?~~~  ::continues walking and takes a seat::

CNS_Luchena says:
~~~CO:  The CSO is not himself.~~~

FCO_Ens_White says:
::watches as the ship slows itself the computer doing the hard work and David just watching to make sure nothing unexpected happened.::

CMO_T`Cal says:
::She puts down the first PADD and opens her laptop. She begins pressing various buttons::

CSO_Toms says:
::begins a series of  scans over the star and system, checking against Federation database information, as well as cataloguing the current data::

Host CO-Rofax says:
~~~ CNS: Keep me appraised as to when you finally speak with him.  ~~~

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
:: enters the Bridge and goes directly to Engineering station ::

CNS_Luchena says:
~~~CO:  If I believe someone can't do their duty, I'll have them relieved.~~~

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CO:  Captain, the sun's deterioration is interfering with COM frequencies. I am attempting to compensate.

CNS_Luchena says:
::feels a bit miffed::

Host Cat says:
Action: The ship suddenly pitches slightly.

CSO_Toms says:
XO: Sir, all sensor are good. The star is very unstable right now, but we should be safe if we don’t get to close.

CNS_Luchena says:
::grabs the armrest::

XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
::looks up to the Captain:: CO: 12 hours until the star collapses, Captai-::grips his seat a little as the ship pitches::

FCO_Ens_White says:
::corrects for the pitch by firing thrusters and advancing the internal damper fields slightly::

CMO_T`Cal says:
::Feels the ship shake. She holds onto her desk for a moment::

Host CO-Rofax says:
::grabs onto the armrest::  FCO: Mr. White.... been underground too long?  Let's try to avoid tossing the ship around, please.

CSO_Toms says:
::grabs at the SCI console::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::tries to compensate the com frequencies::

CMO_T`Cal says:
::She taps her Combadge:: *CO*: Lieutenant T'Cal to Captain Rofax. May I inquire what is going on?

FCO_Ens_White says:
::doesn’t notice the movement of his body but the movement of the ship::

Host CO-Rofax says:
OPS:  Launch relay buoys as the signal degrades.  Boost the strength as necessary.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CO:  Aye, Sir.  ::launches the buoys and ties them into the Comms::

CNS_Luchena says:
::wonders what they hit::

Host CO-Rofax says:
*CMO* Just some interference from the star.  All is well Doctor.

FCO_Ens_White says:
::considers flipping the ship's attitude to an inverted one but decides that someone may notice::

Host CO-Rofax says:
XO: What do we have from scans thus far?  Anything of interest?

Host Cat says:
Action: The ship rocks again and alarms begin to blare.

CMO_T`Cal says:
*CO*: Understood Captain Rofax. ::She taps her Combadge and then goes back to her work::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::holds onto her console to stop from being thrown from her chair::

CNS_Luchena says:
::anxiety goes up::

Host CO-Rofax says:
::sighs as he grabs onto the armrest once again::  CSO: Lt. Toms, can you identify what is causing this interference.

CSO_Toms says:
Self: Crap!! CO: Sir, the star is collapsing in on itself!!! It’s going singular!! Recommend we run NOW!

FCO_Ens_White says:
::mutters something to his console and slows the ship manually::

Host Cat says:
Action: The ship begins to be pulled off course suddenly.

XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
CO: Not a lot, it goes super-nova in 12 hou-::grips his armrest again and mutters::-But we appear to be experiencing something

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
:: runs a simulation on the metaphasic shields program ::

CNS_Luchena says:
::stares at the view screen::

XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
FCO: Warp. Now! Away from the Star

FCO_Ens_White says:
::Slows, fires thrusters to correct for the added gravity::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::diverts power to shields::

Host Cat says:
Action: The star begins to rapidly collapse inward.

CMO_T`Cal says:
::Raises an eyebrow as she feels the ship move again::

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
CO: Shields holding, sir...

CNS_Luchena says:
::wills the ship to find the power to break free::

FCO_Ens_White says:
::turns the ship around and advances throttle to warp one::

Host CO-Rofax says:
OPS / CEO: Transfer all available power to aft shields....

Host Cat says:
Action: The ship screams as the stars gravity begins to collapse.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CO:  Already on it, Sir.

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
:: makes adjustments to aft shields ::  CO: Aye, sir...

Host CO-Rofax says:
OPS: Prepare a distress call.  All frequencies and place the message on standby-by.

Host Cat says:
Action: The ship is struggling to pull free as the star finally looses its battle and collapses into itself.

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
:: looks at an indicator suddenly gone red :: CO: Warp core approaching thermal limits...

CNS_Luchena says:
::watches the screen and takes a deep breath::

Host Cat says:
Action: Everything suddenly goes black.

FCO_Ens_White says:
::continues to advance throttle and adds more power inertial dampers::

CMO_T`Cal says:
::She taps a button displaying what is seen on the view screen:: Self: Interesting...

FCO_Ens_White says:
::mutters about power::

Host Cat says:
Action: Time seems to stand still.

XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
::blinks...::

Host CO-Rofax says:
::is violently motionless::

FCO_Ens_White says:
::contemplates existence::

Host Cat says:
Action: The crew watches in horror as their flesh begins to peel away from their bones in slow motion.

XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
::looks down at his skin peeling away:: Self: Well...

CNS_Luchena says:
::wants to scream but can't::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::has the distress call ready::

Host CO-Rofax says:
::would scream in horror, but can't::

Host Cat says:
Action: First their skin....then their muscles......

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::is in agony but can do nothing about it::

Host Cat says:
Action: At the same time, the ship begins to decay as well......

CMO_T`Cal says:
::Watches her flesh peel away and thinks this is highly illogical::

CSO_Toms says:
::is being pealed like a ripe fresh Orange... ::

CNS_Luchena says:
::closes his eyes::

Host Cat says:
Action: As the ship is finally torn apart, so too is her valiant and brave crew.

FCO_Ens_White says:
::watches the skin and muscles peal away, and feels not well.::

Host Cat says:
Action: There is a bright flash.......

FCO_Ens_White says:
::thinks...'oops'::

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
:: Wonders if he'll finally see his wife and son again... ::

Host Cat says:
Action: And suddenly, they are all back to normal as the ship reappears light years away.........

XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
::feels as though his entire body just went "plib"::

FCO_Ens_White says:
::thinks of a string of very naughty words::

CMO_T`Cal says:
::Looks around her office:: Self: Odd. ::She gets up and walks into Sickbay::

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
:: opens one eye, cautiously ::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::passes out::

Host CO-Rofax says:
::thinks that was the worst transporter ride ever::

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
All: That was... no fun at all.

CSO_Toms says:
::looks around wondering what just happened::

Host CO-Rofax says:
ALL: Report?

CNS_Luchena says:
::thinks that was the most horrible hallucination he ever had::

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
:: checks ship's systems as quickly as possible ::

FCO_Ens_White says:
Self:<w>oops

Host CO-Rofax says:
FCO: You sure you ran from that thing and not into it?  Check the flight logs, please...

XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
::looks down at his armrest computer thingy and checks for ship wide reports:: CO: Computer is giving me the wrong date...says we're two day ahead

CMO_T`Cal says:
Medics: I want all personnel scanned, making sure everything is ok. I will take the Bridge as the rest of you take different decks. ::She takes a med kit and heads for a Turbo Lift::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::comes to with a start:: ALL:  What just happened?

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
CO: All ship's systems are... online. No significant damage to report, sir.

FCO_Ens_White says:
::checks helm and mutters something than brings up the helm logs::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CO:  Sir, I am receiving an incoming hail, broadcast on all frequencies.

CMO_T`Cal says:
::She enters the Turbo Lift and orders it to the Bridge::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CO:  Text message only.

CSO_Toms says:
::checks sensor status:: CO: All sensor systems are good.

Host CO-Rofax says:
OPS: Is it us?

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CO:  Sir?

CNS_Luchena says:
XO:  Two days?

Host CO-Rofax says:
CSO: Full sweep... locate that star.

Host CO-Rofax says:
OPS: The message... is it from us?

CMO_T`Cal says:
::The Turbo Lift stops and the doors open. She steps onto the Bridge and walks to her medical area. She places her med kit down and takes out a Medical Tricorder::

Host Cat says:
Action: The message reads: All ships of the fleet. Its is my sad duty to announce the destruction of the USS Pendragon two days ago in a singularity incident. The ship has been confirmed destroyed. All hands dead.

XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
CNS: Check the computer, the bridge log I did a few moments before the incident...was two days ago

FCO_Ens_White says:
::looks at the helm and brings the logs back up, than rolls it back to the point of the singularity::

CSO_Toms says:
CO: Aye sir. ::starts a full long range scan looking for where they are and where the black hole is::

CMO_T`Cal says:
::She walks around the Bridge scanning various members of the crew::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::gulps:: CO:  Sir, it's not from us but it is about us.

Host Cat says:
Action: A memorial service will be held at SB 78. Details to follow.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::forwards the message to the CO's console::

XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
::looks over to the Captain::

Host CO-Rofax says:
::sighs and stands:: ALL: We seem to have a dilemma...

CNS_Luchena says:
CO:  Sir?

Host CO-Rofax says:
::reads the text message aloud for the bridge crew::

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
:: mutters :: Self: "Reports of my death are greatly exaggerated..."

XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
CO: That doesn't sound promising, Captain...

XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
::frowns slightly:: CO: Funny...I don't FEEL dead

CNS_Luchena says:
CO:  We must let them know we are alive, Captain.

CMO_T`Cal says:
::She raises an eyebrow at the scans:: CO: Captain Rofax..

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
CO: Agreed. Suggest we simply contact Starfleet and let them know we survived.

CNS_Luchena says:
::worries what his family is thinking::

FCO_Ens_White says:
::begins trying to figure out where exactly the ship is::

Host CO-Rofax says:
ALL: What strikes me as funny is we have lost two days and message is dated today.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CO:  Sir I'll try sending a message to Starfleet ... ::composes a message telling Starfleet we are alive and well::

Host CO-Rofax says:
OPS: Authenticate that message and attempt to raise anyone who is Federation-friendly...

Host CO-Rofax says:
CMO: Doctor, you found something?

CMO_T`Cal says:
::She walks over to the CO:: CO: Captain Rofax sending a message would be illogical. The facts show that we are...not here.

XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
CO/OPS: Perhaps...we should try and contact them directly, they could think it a hoax or a plot...

FCO_Ens_White says:
::has an evil thought and grins to himself than looks at the helm again::

XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
::blinks and does a double take, turning to the Vulcan:: CMO: Not here?

CNS_Luchena says:
::senses something odd from the FCO.  Watches him::

Host CO-Rofax says:
::pokes the CMO::  CMO: You feel "here" to me.  What do you suggest?

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
:: turns and looks at the CMO in puzzlement ::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::authenticates the message and sends on all Federation frequencies:: CO:  Message away, Sir.

CMO_T`Cal says:
XO: That is correct Commander. ::Looks at her Tricorder again:: CO: My scans conclude that there is nothing here Captain. There is neither ship nor a crew.

FCO_Ens_White says:
::doesn’t see the CNS watching him as he is sitting at his station at the front of the bridge::

CNS_Luchena says:
OPS:  Can you tell if the message has been received?

XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
::stamps his foot loudly as if to emphasize a point::

CSO_Toms says:
::looks around the bridge in bemusement, then returns to the sensors::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CMO:  What?  Are you saying we are out of phase with our universe?

CMO_T`Cal says:
OPS: That would be a logical assessment Commander.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CNS:  Checking.

FCO_Ens_White says:
::taps the back of his hand and shrugs::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::shakes her head:: CNS:  Seems our message has not been received.

XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
::looks over to science:: CSO: See if you can run a scan on the space around us...are we displacing subspace in any way, are we acting upon the universe like a giant ship in space normally would?

CNS_Luchena says:
::looks shocked::  OPS:  How can that be?

Host CO-Rofax says:
CMO: Confirm your findings with another source.  Preferably, something non-Starfleet issue.

FCO_Ens_White says:
::looks around and shrugs::

CMO_T`Cal says:
CO: Non-Starfleet issue Captain? What would you suggest?

CSO_Toms says:
XO: Checking. ::runs appropriate scans to check for what the CO just said::

Host CO-Rofax says:
CMO: I would imagine a Vulcan Doctor, has a Vulcan medical device or two in her quarters.

CNS_Luchena says:
CO:  We need to make some kind of announcement to the crew, Captain.  People are starting to realize something is very wrong here.

Host CO-Rofax says:
FCO: Do we have propulsion?

CMO_T`Cal says:
CO: Very true Captain. I will have it sent up immediately. *Madison*: Ensign please report to the Bridge with a Vulcan Medical scanner. There is one located in my office.

CSO_Toms says:
CO: Sir, it appears we do not cause any displacement of subspace.

FCO_Ens_White says:
::shrugs:: CO: don't know.  Been looking at the logs for the past two days...looks like we tried to fly away from it but...

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
:: checks engine readouts :: CO, FCO: Engines show green across the board.

Host CO-Rofax says:
CSO: Keep investigating potential sources to change that.  We need to alert anyone we may encounter.

CMO_T`Cal says:
<Madison>::Walks onto the Bridge with the device. She hands it to the CMO::

FCO_Ens_White says:
CO: I would assume so someone said that all systems...::hears the CEO:: CO...err well it would appear so, sir.

CNS_Luchena says:
::tries to think of what to say to keep everyone calm, but is so far from calm himself::

CMO_T`Cal says:
::She looks over the scans on her scanner::

FCO_Ens_White says:
::considers putting his feet up on the apparently 'non-existent helm station::

CSO_Toms says:
CO: Aye sir. ::starts tinkering with possible ways to call for help::

Host CO-Rofax says:
FCO: Set a course for the Slymara System.  Let's head back to the source.

CMO_T`Cal says:
CO: Captain, these scans also show neither life signs nor anything else.

FCO_Ens_White says:
CO: Aye sir.

CNS_Luchena says:
::looks at the CMO in absolute horror::  CMO:  No life signs?  You mean we are dead?

CMO_T`Cal says:
CNS: According to both devices that would be correct.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::now that comms are useless sits there monitoring::

FCO_Ens_White says:
::plots a nice quick simple course to the Slymara system and engages at high warp...or non-warp...or whatever it is..::

Host CO-Rofax says:
CMO: I was afraid of that.  Alter the scanning frequencies and attempt to find a manner to detect our presence.

CNS_Luchena says:
XO:  We can't be dead.  How could we still be conscious?

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CNS:  Maybe we're ghosts ...

CMO_T`Cal says:
CO: Understood Captain. ::She moves to a console and tries to change frequencies until she gets life signs::

XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
::thinks for a moment:: CNS: Do you believe in an afterlife?

CNS_Luchena says:
OPS:  All together?  Wouldn't we have some choice in it?

CNS_Luchena says:
XO:  Not like this, Sir.  Not this sort of afterlife.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::shrugs::

Host Cat says:
Action: Proximity alarms begin to beep.

FCO_Ens_White says:
::slows the ship to a stop and looks at the helm accusingly::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::wonders how proximity alarms can beep when they are dead:: CO:  ummm, Sir?

XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
CNS: Neither do I. Logic dictates that we are here, therefore we are alive and must act upon the universe in some way

Host CO-Rofax says:
CEO: Patch the CMO's tricorder through the internal scanners.  We need to find a manner of detection and perhaps build backwards from there.  ::turns toward the beep::

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
All: Well, if the proximity alarms still work, clearly we have some sort of interaction with the rest of the universe.

CNS_Luchena says:
XO:  We have to get back.  Our families are suffering.

Host CO-Rofax says:
CSO: Can you identify?

Host Cat says:
Action: There is nothing there.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CNS:  I don't have a family ...

CNS_Luchena says:
CEO:  Yes.  We must exist in some way.

XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
CNS: We will get back, but we have to stay calm and think this through without fear guiding our minds

CNS_Luchena says:
::looks at OPS sadly::

CNS_Luchena says:
OPS:  We're your family, and we are not ghosts.

CSO_Toms says:
::scans for something in their proximity::

Host CO-Rofax says:
FCO: Slow to 1/4 impulse.  Let's see if we can bump into this alarm....

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CO:  Is that wise, Sir.  We have no idea what will happen.

FCO_Ens_White says:
::glances at the CO and shrugs than advances the throttle to a quarter impulse::

FCO_Ens_White says:
::looks at the helm and shrugs:: Self: I’ve seen some strange things.  CO: we appear to be flying through something that strongly resembles a small asteroid.

Host CO-Rofax says:
OPS: If scans show nothing there and they also show we no longer exist.....  Open yourself up to the impossible...

FCO_Ens_White says:
OC: In fact I would say we are in fact flying through a small asteroid...sir.

Host CO-Rofax says:
FCO: Through?  Press on.  Get us out of this asteroid.

FCO_Ens_White says:
CO: sure thing.

FCO_Ens_White says:
::advances the throttle to half impulse::

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
CO: Sir, I seem to recall hearing of at least one or two similar incidents in the past. I can't remember the details, but I do have a strong sense that the Romulans were involved somehow...

XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
CSO: Scan this "asteroid", are we having any effect on it what so ever?

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CO:  Sir, I'd say we are here ... but we are out of phase.  That's why Starfleet think the Pendragon is dead.

CSO_Toms says:
::scans asteroid::

CMO_T`Cal says:
::She listens to everyone acting highly illogical, showing to much emotion::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::nods:: CEO: Phased shielding.  Starfleet also experimented with it if I recall ...

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
OPS: Yes! The Pegasus incident!

CSO_Toms says:
CO: Nothing, sir. We passed through it like it was mist, like it wasn’t there.

FCO_Ens_White says:
::looks at the CMO, the CNS, the CEO, the CSO, the XO, the CO, the Ops, and himself than goes back to looking at the helm.::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CEO:  Then what we may have to do is change the phase of our own shields ... to something that could be detectable.  Is that possible?

CNS_Luchena says:
::wonders what the FCO was thinking when he looked at each of them in turn::

Host CO-Rofax says:
CSO: Is there anything else out there displaying similar properties to that of the Pendragon?

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
OPS: Perhaps... let me run a few simulations...   :: turns back to his console ::

CNS_Luchena says:
::feels a bit less panicked as some of the crew seems to understand what has happened::

CMO_T`Cal says:
::Continues to try many different frequencies::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
::moves over to join the CEO:: CEO:  What if we have been returned to another universe?  One that is out of phase to our own ... ::is thinking out loud::

XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
::looks over to the Science console again:: CSO: Run through the sensor logs of the few seconds just before it went black, see if you can find anything

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
OPS: If we can get a quantum signature of some nearby objects and compare it to our own, we should be able to settle that issue quickly enough.

FCO_Ens_White says:
::looks at the helm intently and advances the throttle to three quarters wondering how big this small asteroid is::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CEO:  Could it have been a direct switch of universes?  The Pendragon of this universe returned to our universe and we returned here.

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
:: continues checking shield simulations ::

Host CO-Rofax says:
FCO: Mr. White, are you okay over there?  ::thinks the FCO is rather skittish all of the sudden::

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
OPS: Not sure... I'm working at the limits of my own knowledge here...

FCO_Ens_White says:
CO: sure thing boss...its just that...never mind...fine,

FCO_Ens_White says:
::doesn’t admit to himself that he doesn’t have a clue what is going on::

Host CO-Rofax says:
~~~ CNS: Mikal? ~~~ ::looks with concern to the CNS and then the FCO and back again::

CNS_Luchena says:
::looks at the CO then the FCO::

Host CO-Rofax says:
FCO: Boss?  I didn't realize you were in the habit of punching a time clock.  Speak freely Ensign.

FCO_Ens_White says:
::glances at the CO, and than at the CNS::

FCO_Ens_White says:
CO: just a manner of speaking sir.

CMO_T`Cal says:
::Notices the FCO is acting rather strange as she continues with frequencies::

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CEO:  Any luck?

CSO_Toms says:
XO: Aye sir. ::begins running through the screeds of data, pushing them through filtering sub routines, looking for anything, like something that might bear a resemblance to this current state::

CNS_Luchena says:
::shrugs::

Host CO-Rofax says:
FCO: Then out with it.  ::stands and steps closer::

FCO_Ens_White says:
CO: ...out with what? the manner of speaking?...sir,

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
:: turns to Rofax ::  CO: Captain... we may be able to get the attention of another ship. If we inverse pulse-reflect the deflector grid, we can generate a wave front of modulated chronotons. Another ship's sensors will see that as a temporal anomaly. They might stop to investigate.

CNS_Luchena says:
::has no idea what the CEO is talking about, yet it feels like a good idea::

CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
CO: The catch is, we'll only be able to do this once or twice before we burn out the deflector grid buffers. It'll be a week's job to replace them.

Host CO-Rofax says:
CEO: Prepare a simulation.  Get me power drainage estimates and whether it will be once or twice.

CMO_T`Cal says:
::Hears the CEO:: Self: He is rather intelligent.

OPS_Pettigrove says:
CEO:  Do we know how far out of phase we are?
