Host Cootles says:
Last time on the U.S.S. Pendragon . . .

Host Cootles says:
The Crew managed to corral the troublesome students destined for the exchange program to Catulla Prime. Given the behavior of these students, one had to wonder whether their selection was reward or punishment.

Host Cootles says:
Having parted ways with the Ambassador, the Pendragon returned to SB14 to pick up a “new” crewmember. Captain Yates-Luchena, haven departed with her husband to escort the exchange students, left the Pendragon in need of new leadership.

Host Cootles says:

ACTION: The Pendragon is on routine patrol near Klingon space. The newly assigned Captain has been on board for four days now and the most exciting thing to have occurred was the chef trying to justify the “chili” he served three days ago.

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
::looks at himself in the mirror, wondering what mask he was going to wear today::

Jordan_Thraxis says:
::in her quarters wondering what this new CO is like ... having heard so much about him::

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
::sitting in the center chair rubbing his right leg::

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
CNS: Welcome to the Pendragon, Ensign.

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
SO:  Thank you.

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
::decides on cordial, offers a snide remark towards himself, and exits his quarters to report for duty::

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
::at the helm::

Host Cootles says:
ACTION: Another mundane report comes in from various stations throughout the ship. All systems are operating at 103% efficiency.

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::wonders if its always this boring here on the Pendragon::

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
CNS: Any initial impressions you would care to share ::smiles::

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
FCO: Present course?

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::thinks::  SO:  Routine seems to suit the crew.

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
::steps off the lift after a hasty ride, making his way to his station::

Jordan_Thraxis says:
::sighs ... at least she could try to be helpful.  Heads out the door heading for somewhere::

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
SO: Anything on sensors?

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
CO:  Nothing unusual, Sir.

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
::checks into his station, continuing the routine scans::

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::yawns::

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CO:  Yes sir we are on course to......um  checking sir.

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
::notes the new Ensign::  CNS: I don't think I've met you yet.  You are?

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
CTO: Lt. Sek ::nods a welcome::

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CO: Sir we are on patrol and heading for Haven current time.

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::jumps to his feet::  CO:  Oh... umm.... I'm Ensign Luchena, Counselling intern.

Jordan_Thraxis says:
::finds herself if a turbo lift ... directs it for the bridge::

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
::nods politely to the SO, sparing her a brief glance before returning to his scans. Ever vigilant...::

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
::raises an eyebrow::  CNS: Luchena?  As in Luna Luchena?

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
::still waiting for the FCO's report of their ETA to Haven::

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::nods::  CO:  A blood relative I haven't met.

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
CTO: Nothing unusual on sensors.

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
SO: Remind me to tell you about Perseus V sometime, Lieutenant.

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
CNS: One of my finest officers.  You have large shoes to fill my boy.

Jordan_Thraxis says:
::arrives on the bridge, exits the lift and looks around::

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::wonders if this Luna had big feet::  CO:  I'll do my best, Sir.

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
CTO: Report.  How are the tactical systems on the Pe...   on this ship?

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
Jordan: Greetings ::smiles::

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::sits back down::

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
::hears the doors swish behind him::

Jordan_Thraxis says:
::smiles and whispers:: SO:  Lt.  So where is this new Captain?

Host Cootles says:
ACTION: A report comes in from medical, three crewmen were found unconscious on Deck 13 and have been transported to Sickbay.

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::sees Thraxis.  Wonders if this is the Jordan woman he heard so much about::

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
::looks to the CO, wondering about his hesitation but not showing it:: CO: Everything is ready and optimal, Captain.

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
CO: Sir, permission to go to sickbay to help?

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CO: Sorry sir for my slow response but we are two hours our sir.

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
CTO: Good.  I expect them to be that way at all times.  Strange things seem to happen to ships named Pendragon.

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
::turning to Tribble:: SO: Help with what?

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::looks over at the Captain with a curious expression on his face::

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
CO: So I've noticed. I'll keep them primed, sir.

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
CO: Medical reports three crewmen were found unconscious on Deck 13 and taken to sickbay.

Jordan_Thraxis says:
::looks over at the CNS:: CNS:  You must be Ensign Luchena.

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
Self: Get your head in gear girl.  Husband is fine and you are fine.  He spoke to you so relax.

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::stands again::  Thraxis:  Yes Ma'am.

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
::raises an eyebrow at the SO's report::  SO: Very well, you are excused.  ::makes a mental note to see that this ship gets adequate Med staff in the future::

Jordan_Thraxis says:
::smiles:: CNS:  Don't call me ma'am.  My name is Jordan.

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
<EMH> :Nurse:  Get those three men on biobeds right away!

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
::goes to sickbay::

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::nods::  Thraxis:  My father told me that if I ever really needed someone to call on you.

Host Cootles says:
ACTION: OPS receives an updated report, ship systems have increased to 107% efficiency although no diagnostics were completed during the prior span.

CEO_LtCmdr_Damien says:
::In main engineering::

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
<Nurse Temple> : EMH: They are ready for scans.  ::huffs and puffs from the exertion::

Jordan_Thraxis says:
::nods:: CNS:  I knew I could always count on him.  Welcome aboard.

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
::notes a civilian on the bridge as he turned to speak to the SO earlier::  Jordan: You are?

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
Thraxis:  Thank you.  ::sits back down::

Jordan_Thraxis says:
CO:  Jordan Thraxis.  You must be Vn'dor Phail.

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
EMH: What is their condition?

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
~~~Jordan: Good to have you up and back.~~~

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
::stands and approaches extending his hand::  Jordan: I am.  I don't recall seeing your name on the roster.  May I enquire as to your purpose aboard the Pe...  aboard this vessel?

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
<EMH>: SO: Not being a mind-reader, I wouldn't know until I read the scans.  I will let you know as soon as I am finished, IF you will kindly stay out of my way.

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
::notices the new Ensign and nods at him:

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
::notes the hesitation again::

CEO_LtCmdr_Damien says:
::realizes he has yet to check in with the new captain. Leaves main engineering for the bridge::

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
::watches the medical scanner::

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::nods at the FCO in return::

Jordan_Thraxis says:
CO:  Well, if you really must know, the former Captain, Albaron Thraxis, was my husband.  And as for me being here, this is my home.  I'm also your former Operations Officer, who held the rank of Commander.  Is that enough information for you?

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
<EMH> SO: Hmmmm

Host Cootles says:
ACTION: Four more crewmembers are hauled into Sickbay, unconscious as well. They were located on Deck 12.

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
EMH: Hmmm?  And that means?

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
Jordan:  So you are telling me you are basically a passenger?

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
<EMH> SO: It means I am thinking.

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::thinks about the fact that the Pendragon is on her third Captain and her relatively recent launch::

Jordan_Thraxis says:
::shrugs:: CO:  I help out where I can.

CEO_LtCmdr_Damien says:
::enters the turbolift:: TL: Bridge

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::wonders if the ship is jinxed::

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
::frowns softly:: CO: Captain, we may have a situation forming.

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
::nods::  Jordan:  Good.  Do you think you can be of any assistance in Sickbay?

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
<EMH> SO: It seems they have hypoxic - elevated levels of carbon dioxide.

Jordan_Thraxis says:
CO:  I can try, but I don't have a medical background.

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
::hearing the CTO he nods at Jordan not waiting for an answer and approaches the TAC Station::  CTO: Report.

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
EMH: Is it caused by something wrong on the ship?

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::thinks that a 'situation' will be a relief from the monotony::

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
<EMH> SO: How should I know?

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
CO: Four more crewmen have been taken to sickbay unconscious. All are from Deck 12.

Jordan_Thraxis says:
CO:  I'm on my way.  Where about on Deck 12, Lt?

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
::doesn't like the sound of this at all::

Jordan_Thraxis says:
<Edit - should read "CTO: Where abouts ... >

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
::grimaces:: EMH: I'll be on Deck 12.  Let me know if their condition changes.

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
CTO: Get yourself, some of your men and go check out Deck 12.  Take Thraxis with you too for medical scans

CEO_LtCmdr_Damien says:
::enters the bridge and spots the new captain, walks over to him:: CO: Captain, I'm LtCmdr Damien, your chief engineer. We haven't been introduced. ::extends a hand::

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
<EMH> SO: I am a doctor, not a secretary.

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::watches the CEO cross the bridge::

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
::figures now it is the time to introduce herself to her new captain::

Jordan_Thraxis says:
::nods to the CTO::

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
::starts to say something, then closes her mouth, and leaves for Deck 12::

Host Cootles says:
ACTION: Efficiency levels have increased again, the ship is now operating at 115% efficiency.

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
::nods, leaving the station and looking to Jordan:: Thraxis: No one area in particular. ::taps his comm badge:: *Security*: Security team Alpha, report to deck 12.

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
::turns hearing Damien::  CEO: Glad your here Commander.  No time for pleasantries I'm afraid.  I need you to pull up all sensor logs on Deck 12 and look for anything out of the ordinary.

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
::looks at her engines again and sees something a little off::

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
::arrives on Deck 12 and begins scanning::

Jordan_Thraxis says:
::enters for the TL waiting for the CTO to join her

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
::turns to the FCO::  FCO: All stop

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
::joins Jordan, drawing his tricorder::

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
::runs a level three diagnostic to confirm what she is reading is actually correct::

CEO_LtCmdr_Damien says:
CO: Aye Sir :: takes his station and brings up recent internal scans of deck 12::

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CO:  Understood sir.  Backing us down to all stop.

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::wonders why they are stopping::

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
CNS:  Are you empathic like your sister?

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
::winds down the warp engines and drops to impulse and using the RCS thrusters brings the Intrepid class to a full stop::

Jordan_Thraxis says:
::rides the lift down thinking about this new CO::

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::raises an eyebrow::  CO:  My aunt, and yes slightly.  Why do you ask?

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CO: Reading as full stop sir.  No forward motion at the present.

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
:: realizing there is no one at Tactical now:: Computer: Computer, bring us to Yellow Alert

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
::pulls up escape vectors with the captain's order for yellow alert::

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
::feels short of breath, scans indicate lowered oxygen levels::

CEO_LtCmdr_Damien says:
CO: Captain, everything looks normal on deck twelve. I'm bringing up the bio-filters scan to be certain, if there is anything air-born, it should show up. ::scratches his head::

Host Cootles says:
ACTION: The SO pushes further through Deck 12, becoming lightheaded the farther she goes.

Jordan_Thraxis says:
::feels the lift stop exits as the doors open::

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
::nods at the CNS's answer::  CNS: Sorry, yes I meant your Aunt.  Do you think you could go to Sickbay and see what you can sense out of the minds of those that are sick?

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
::starts scanning the area, nodding to his team::

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
::gets up and walks to the captain::

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
CO:  Certainly Captain.  ::stands and heads towards the turbo lift::

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
*CO* Sir, scans indicate a significant shortage of ... ::breathes with difficulty:: oxygen on Deck 12.

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
CEO: And definitely nothing due to a mechanical malfunction?  Plasma leak etc?

Jordan_Thraxis says:
CTO:  Something's not right ...

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CO: Welcome aboard the Pendragon sir.  I am FCO Lt. T'Lisha Bishara Jet.  I am a full Betazoid sir.  Any help you need just ask.

CEO_LtCmdr_Damien says:
CO: Nothing of the like. Nothing airborne either.

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
*SO* Then seal off the deck and get everybody out of there.

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
Thraxis: Oxygen levels are lower than normal.

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
::picks up an emergency oxygen mask in the corridor::

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
::extends hand and waits patiently::

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
*CO* Aye, Sir.

Jordan_Thraxis says:
CTO:  How many life signs on this deck?

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
::runs a quick bioscan::

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
::sees the CTO:: Captain's orders are to seal off Deck 12.

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
::seeing the FCO approach::  FCO: Good to meet you Lieutenant.  Is there anything in this part of space that could effect ship's operations?

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::in the turbolift::

Jordan_Thraxis says:
CTO/SO:  Let's split up and do a search.  We get everyone out first, then seal off the deck.

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::emerges on deck 5 and heads to Sickbay::

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CO: Being a former CEO sir I have not had the opportunity to accurately scan space but anything is possible.

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
CEO: Commander.  It seems there is an oxygen shortage on Deck 12.  Anything wrong with the environmental systems?

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CO: Our CEO is better at this for the moment.

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
::nods at the SO, trying to keep his mind focused:: Thraxis: There are 42 people on the deck, including us. Depending on how fast the oxygen is dropping, we may need to perform 
emergency beam-outs.

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::enters sickbay::

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
CTO: I'll notify the bridge.  *CO* Emergency beam-outs of the 42 people on Deck 12 are recommended, Sir.

Host Cootles says:
ACTION: A dozen more crewmembers are hauled into Sickbay, all suffering from oxygen deprivation.

Jordan_Thraxis says:
CTO:  Do it.  Get yourselves out of here ... I'll do a sweep and make sure everyone is out..

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
::moves back to his seat favouring the right leg::  CEO: How long has this ship been in space?  Has she had a proper shakedown cruise?

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::notes all the medical staff working diligently::

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
::orders his team to evacuate, taking anyone they find along the way:: Thraxis: I shall accompany you until all are evacuated.

CEO_LtCmdr_Damien says:
CO: The computer says no...but if it's being reported by the team On deck 12, I'd need to go there myself to be sure. Could be a sensor glitch. The ship is checking out green across the 
board, of course, if there is something wrong with the main computer........

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CEO: When was the last level 2 diagnostic of the environmental systems done?

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
*SO* Go ahead.  All further reports of your investigations below deck are to be reported to Commander Damien who will report to me.  Understood?

Host Cootles says:
ACTION: Sensors indicate efficiency has jumped again, this time to 121%.

CEO_LtCmdr_Damien says:
FCO: A little under a week ago

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
<EMH> *SO* More crewmembers have arrived, also suffering from oxygen deprivation.

Jordan_Thraxis says:
CTO:  Negative.  You're going to make sure you can beam ME out.  ::moves off::

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
::turns to face the CEO::  CEO: What's wrong with the main computer?

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
::nods, and heads for the turbolift, making his way back to the bridge::

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CO: Sir There is something definitely wrong on the ship.  I finished running a diagnostic of my helm and the readings are off.  They indicate we are way over the norms.

Jordan_Thraxis says:
::begins sweeping room by room::

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
*CO* Aye, Sir.  ::arranges emergency beam-out of remaining crew on Deck 12::

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
FCO: Over norms?  That's a bad thing?

Host Cootles says:
ACTION: Main lighting is extinguished on all decks. Emergency lighting does not come on after the anticipated length of time.

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CO: Depends on what you would classify bad.  For me engine efficiency of 121% is a bit over the norms.

CEO_LtCmdr_Damien says:
CO: Nothing that I can detect from this location. I'll need to go the computer core and run a low level diagnostic. If there are low oxygen levels on deck 12, it *should* be telling me. It is not, 
leading me to believe it is malfunctioning.

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::approaches one of the victims::

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
::looks to the ceiling::  FCO: I take it back.  You may be on to something Lieutenant.

Jordan_Thraxis says:
::finds herself now in complete darkness:: Self:  Oh great ...

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CO: This is not a good thing.

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
CEO: Go

CEO_LtCmdr_Damien says:
Self: Damn.....

CEO_LtCmdr_Damien says:
CO: Aye

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CEO: Need company?

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::places his hand on the unconscious crewman's forehead::

CEO_LtCmdr_Damien says:
FCO: You are needed here. I have a full staff thanks. ::high tails it to the computer core::

Jordan_Thraxis says:
::keeps moving by feel::

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
FCO: As you wish Damien.

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
FCO: See if you can track this "efficiency" to its source.

Jordan_Thraxis says:
*CO*:  Thraxis to bridge.  What happened to the lights?

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CO: Understood sir.  ::using her knowledge of photo memory her hands fly over the console to run the indicated scans::

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
::Steps off the turbolift, and heads for a locker on one of the walls, procuring a hand-beacon and activating it::

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
::is glad he had moved back to his seat::  FCO: In the name of the Prophets... why hasn't emergency lighting kicked in??

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CO: Unknown at the present moment.

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
*Jordan* Unknown.  Commander Damien is looking into a computer core issue.  Are you any good with computers?

CEO_LtCmdr_Damien says:
::exits the turbolift and heads to the computer core::

Jordan_Thraxis says:
*CO*:  I was an engineer once ...

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
FCO: Are the flight control systems still operational?  Communications?

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
::EMH moves around sick bay, sensing the patients in the dark::

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
*Jordan* How well do you know the layout of an Intrepid?  Can you make it in the dark?

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
*CNS* Anything to report Ensign?  Is the EMH still operational?

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::removes his hand from the unconscious crewman.  Notices it's gone dark while he was away::

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CO: Sir I am doing all diagnostics from here.  Will have results shortly.

CEO_LtCmdr_Damien says:
::flicks on his wrist light and begins a diagnostic of the computer core::

Jordan_Thraxis says:
*CO*:  Not overly ... actually my first time on one ... ::is finding it harder to breathe:: *CO*:  I'm still on Deck 12 ... the air in here is getting worse.  Suggest you seal it off now.

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
*CO*:  Yes.  I can see him glowing in the dark.  Nothing from the affected crewman.  They were going about their business when they were deprived of oxygen.

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CO: Just for you to know I can sense the general fear and tension from the ship for the moment.  Sir I can't find the reason for the jump in efficiency unfortunately.  It might be from 
the computer itself.

Host Cootles says:
ACTION: As the CEO begins scanning, an arc of electricity leaps out from the computer core, effectively destroying his light source::

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
::mumbles to himself hearing Thraxis::  By the Prophets...  *Jordan* Acknowledged.  We'll beam you out of there and straight to Engineering.  ::turns to the FCO::  FCO: Do it.

CEO_LtCmdr_Damien says:
Self: Why now?

CEO_LtCmdr_Damien says:
::turns on the light on his tricorder::

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
::looks at the CO::  CO: Sir with all due respect, do what?

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
*CNS* Then bring yourself back to the bridge.  We need you up here.  Need a transport?

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
FCO: Beam out Thraxis.

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
FCO: Beam Thraxis to the Computer Core.

Jordan_Thraxis says:
::slumps to the floor, finding it harder to breathe::

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CO: Ah understood sir.  ::prepares to beam Jordan out::

Host Cootles says:
ACTION: As the CEO's tricorder light comes on, he notices he is feeling light-headed as well. Scans indicate oxygen levels are falling here as well.

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CO: Beaming now sir.

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
FCO: How are her life signs?

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
*CO*:  That would be helpful, Captain.

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
::activates the transporter beam:: CO: Her life signs are there only weakly from lack of oxygen for now.

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
::misses the days where a good firefight would solve problems::

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
FCO: And lock onto our young Counsellor in Sickbay and beam him back here.

CEO_LtCmdr_Damien says:
*CO*: Damien to the bridge. We're losing atmosphere here as well. I don't know how long I can stay here.

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CO: Understood sir.

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
::with the 42 crewmembers who were beamed off Deck 12 in the emergency beam-out::

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
::locks the transporters on the CNS and beams him to the bridge::

Host Cootles says:
ACTION: Jordan is transported, but immediately notices the lack of oxygen in the area.

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
::hearing the CEO he looks to the ceiling::  This is a test isn't it?

Jordan_Thraxis says:
::gasping as she materializes ... notes the air is thinning in here too.  Gets up slowly::

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
*CEO* Get yourself and Jordan out of there... find some EVA suits and then return.

Host Cootles says:
<CPU> CO: Unable to comply, Please restate your question.

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::finds himself back on the bridge where it is also quite dark::

Jordan_Thraxis says:
CEO:  Chief?

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
::grits his teeth at the ceiling::  Computer: Disregard inquiry

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CO: Sir I hate to interrupt your talk with the Prophets but several decks report problems.  Captain I believe it is in the computer core.  Should I bring the secondary core online?

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
::begins to make her way back to the bridge::

CEO_LtCmdr_Damien says:
*CO*: Will do ::leaves for the quartermasters:: Jordan: We need to leave, get some EVA suits and come back.

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
FCO: That would be a surely wonderful idea.  Want to bet that doesn't work either?

Jordan_Thraxis says:
CEO:  When did the air loss start?  ::walking with the CEO::

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
CO:  What can I do to help Captain?  All graduates of the Academy are trained in basic operations of all bridge consoles.

Host Cootles says:
ACTION: Oxygen levels are nearly depleted on half of the Decks and reports of unconscious crewmembers continue to come in from all over.

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CO: Well sir it is only a guess.

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
~~~WhirlWind: Find safe place.~~~

CEO_LtCmdr_Damien says:
::keeps moving:: Jordan: Almost as soon as I arrived. As if someone - or something, didn't want me here.

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
::helps unconscious crewmembers to emergency oxygen stations in the corridors::

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
CNS: Good news Counsellor.  Perhaps you could find a pointy stick and tell this ship to straighten out it's act.

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
::brings the secondary computer core online and prays it works::

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
FCO: Initiate the secondary core.

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::frowns, not getting it at all::

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CO: Already done sir.

Host Cootles says:
ACTION: As the FCO finishes tapping the appropriate keys, her console explodes in front of her catching her uniform on fire.

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
::waits for the secondary computer core to kick in and take over the functions of the ship::

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
CNS: See if you can open up a channel to Starfleet or the Klingon Empire

Jordan_Thraxis says:
CEO:  Sabotage perhaps ... we need to get to the computer core.

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::makes for a fire extinguisher::  FCO:  Roll!

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
::runs to the FCO and quickly pats out the fire::

Host Cootles says:
ACTION: The fire suppression systems on the bridge fail to come on.

CEO_LtCmdr_Damien says:
::arrives at the quartermasters and requests two EVA suits, which are delivered:: Jordan: Here, put this on :: Hands her an EVA suit::

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
Out loud: OH Q'Valth!!!:: drops and rolls fast::

Jordan_Thraxis says:
::takes the suit and quickly puts it on::

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::opens up the extinguisher onto the fire::

CEO_LtCmdr_Damien says:
::puts on his suit:: Jordan: Now back to work. That diagnostic I was running should be finished.

Host Cootles says:
ACTION: The sound of a force field pops into place at the door to the quartermasters.

Jordan_Thraxis says:
CEO:  Get back to Engineering ... I'll go to the core.  I'll meet you back there in an hour.

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
FCO: You all right lieutenant?

CEO_LtCmdr_Damien says:
::sighs:: Jordan: We're not going anywhere. We're tapped here.

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
Self: This is so not good.

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CO: Slightly singed but alive.

Jordan_Thraxis says:
CEO:  Oh great.  ::turns to a nearby console::

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
::greatly dislikes the feeling of being useless::

CEO_LtCmdr_Damien says:
*CO* Damien to the bridge, we're trapped here, can you beam us out?

Host Cootles says:
SCENE: The FCO's uniform is slightly charred, but otherwise she is okay.

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CTO: I appreciate your concern and thank you.

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::makes his way to a communications console and hails SB 14::

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
::hearing the CEO::  CNS: Counsellor.  See what you can do to help the Commander.

Jordan_Thraxis says:
::tries hacking into the computer systems to lower the force field::

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
Self: OK this is the third uniform in two days. Sheesh this has got to stop.

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
CO:  Right.  ::looks over the transporter controls trying to remember everything he learned in class::

Host Cootles says:
ACTION: A second force field pops to life inside the quartermasters, effectively cutting the room in half.

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
::moves back to his center chair in the darkness::  Bridge: Can someone tell me what in the name of the Prophets is going on around here?

Jordan_Thraxis says:
Self:  Well that wasn't it ... ::keeps trying::

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::attempts a transporter lock on the CEO and Thraxis::

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CO: Sir I think we may have a computer virus sir.

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
CO: You mentioned strange things happening to ships named Pendragon...

Host Cootles says:
<CPU> CO: Your kind are inefficient. Once you are dealt with, we can carry on with our mission, Captain.

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::decides not to contribute his theory about the ship being jinxed::

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
::looks up at the computer::

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CO: It seems like the ship has a mind of its own....make that an AI now.

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
FCO: A virus!  Who is the computer expert around here?

Jordan_Thraxis says:
::Keeps hacking away ... ::

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
CO:  I have a lock.  ::transports the CEO and Thraxis to the bridge, he hopes::

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
::keeps mouth shut::

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CO: It could be an AI that has been uploaded sir.

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
FCO: I don't think that's an AI.  I think there is something far more ominous than that.

Host Cootles says:
ACTION: The CEO and Jordan materialize on the bridge, decked out in their fancy EVA suits.

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
CO: It might have happened at Starbase 14...

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
CTO: I take it you understand now Commander?  ::smiles weakly::

Jordan_Thraxis says:
::is surprised to find herself on the bridge::

Host Cootles says:
<CPU> CNS: That was unnecessary.

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CO: Are you referring to the infamous "Q"?

CEO_LtCmdr_Damien says:
::takes off his EVA suit:: CO: Does anybody here have any idea what is going on? ::irritated::

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
::continues to make her way to the bridge, helping downed crewmembers along the way::

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
CO: I'm curious as to what happened to the last one, sir...

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::shocked::  CPU:  What?

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
FCO: Never thought of that but certainly a possibility.  I'd like to stick to some sort of Computer Override for the moment though

Jordan_Thraxis says:
CO: What if we diverted its attention ... away from us onto something else ...

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::suspicious::  CO:  This thing is interacting with us.

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
Jordan: Like Mr. Spock did when the computer took over the ship.

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
CO: We may need to dump the primary computer core.

Host Cootles says:
ACTION: The Counselor is transported to an airlock. Only two sounds are heard: the familiar hissing of air escaping and his own heartbeat.

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
CEO: We suspect some sort of computer override or virus.  Direct your investigation in that direction.

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CTO: I am still waiting for the secondary one to kick in.

CEO_LtCmdr_Damien says:
CO: I may not be able to over ride it, but I can crash it. I'll feed it an irrational number

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
Screams:  Help!

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
::hears the CNS and rushes to help::

Jordan_Thraxis says:
::Looks around:: All:  Where is the CNS ...

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
::searches for the CNS, trying to establish a transporter lock::

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::panicking::

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
::works the airlock controls furiously::

Host Cootles says:
<CPU> CTO: Step away from the console, Lt. There can only be one way.

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
CEO: The CTO has an idea.... but prior to dumping the whole core.... what if we shut her down and reboot from the core files?

CNS_Ens_Luchena says:
::faints from sheer terror::

Host CO_Capt_Vn`dor says:
::notices the CNS missing::  FCO: Scan for the Counsellor!

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CO: If it isn't a virus maybe it could be some type of nano technology.

CTO_LtJG_Sek says:
Computer: Don't think for a moment I'm going to be intimidated by binary code...

Jordan_Thraxis says:
CEO:  Purge the system.  Reboot from the protected files ...

SO_Lt_Tribble says:
::manages to get the airlock controls manipulated and pulls the CNS out::

FCO_Lt_Bishara_Jet says:
CO: Understood,  ::closes her eyes and reaches out with her senses cause it is the fastest way::

CEO_LtCmdr_Damien says:
CO: I'd limit the parameters of the reboot, having it load only the basics, until we can figure out what is going on

Jordan_Thraxis says:
::is getting mad:: Self:  Right ... ::moves to tactical to finish what the CTO started::
