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

Host Coot says:
The Crew witnessed the unfolding of events from another time and another place. A place where a select number of the crew has tread before. This time however, a ship from the past occupied this space and a face from the dead led her there.

Host Coot says:
Crossing the threshold of the time-space barrier before them, the Crew entered into the nightmare of the Excelsior-class Pendragon. Battle-scarred and misshapen, it held its own although being outnumbered. The voice familiar... the words were not, “Bless the Prophets you are here! Help us!”

Host Coot says:
< < < < Ghosts of our Past, Part III > > > > 

ACTION: The view screen goes dark and is replaced by images of the Excelsior Pendragon being hit by phaser blasts from the other ships.

Host Coot says:
SCENE: That event occurred seven years ago. It was the first memory of entering this place and the last memory of a Crew that did not belong here. The Crew had slowly forgotten why they were here or how for that matter.

Host Coot says:
SCENE: All they knew at the moment was Gul Marat had just uttered the phrase, ““Bless the Prophets you are here! Help us!”

ACTION: The Intrepid-class Pendragon fills the view screen.

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
::standing on the Excelsior class Pendragon looking into the view screen::  COMM: Pendragon:  Bless the Prophets you are here!  Help us!

OPS_Jr`dan says:
::sitting at OPS feeling something is not right here::

CEO_Garshon says:
::standing at the engineering station::

CNS_O’Dunn says:
::sitting at the helm looking striking as usual::

Host Coot says:
ACTION: The view screen flickers to life and the Crew stares at their unaltered selves from seven years ago.

CMO_Servek says:
::Servek runs around Sickbay attempting to heal the wounded that continue to flood in. She has a feeling that something is wrong there, but uses her Vulcan logic to reassure herself::

CNS_O’Dunn says:
::raises an eyebrow::

CEO_Garshon says:
::thinks he looked better as a human::

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
::had nearly forgotten what his reflection truly looked like seeing his other self trying to hide off screen::

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
COM: Pendragon: Commander Damien.  Let me speak to Captain Vn'dor

CNS_O’Dunn says:
::can't see much resemblance as he/she looks at  him/herself::

Host Coot says:
<Damien> COMM: Marat: That's not gonna happen....

OPS_Jr`dan says:
::is keeping the voices in her head at bay for now::

CMO_Servek says:
::She pushes several officers out of the way to tend to several more wounded:: Combs: How many more do we have?

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
COMM: Pendragon: By the Prophets... I MUST speak with him if we are to end this temporal Pah Wraith hell

CNS_O’Dunn says:
::nods in agreement::

CMO_Servek says:
<Nurse Combs> CMO: Casualties are continuing to fly in left and right, Doctor. I'm not sure if we'll be able to treat them all if we continue to take a beating like the one we just did...

Host Coot says:
ACTION: Damien mutes the comm. and talks to someone off-screen.

OPS_Jr`dan says:
::finally realizes whose body she is in ... shudders::

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
::turns to look at the various faces behind him::  CEO: Report, status of attacking vessels Damien?

CMO_Servek says:
::She shakes her head:: Combs: Let’s focus on the most critical patients first and work our way to the least wounded. Have the extremely wounded transported to Sickbay if they haven't already. The rest can be treated in Cargo Bay 2. Have Servek take charge of Cargo Bay 2,

CMO_Servek says:
<Nurse Combs> ::She inclines her head:: CMO: I'll do so immediately, Commander. ::She rushes out of Sickbay::

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
::turns to the Jr'dan image::  OPS: Mrs. Thraxis, do you remember the Intrepid's old access codes?

CMO_Servek says:
::She taps her Combadge:: *Servek*: Yates to Servek.

OPS_Jr`dan says:
::jumps as she hears the CO:: CO:  I think so.  ::checks::

OPS_Jr`dan says:
::tries her old access codes::

CMO_Servek says:
<Lt. "Servek" Powers> ::a male voice comes through the Combadge:: *CMO*: Servek here, Doctor. I was informed that I am to take command of the team in Cargo Bay 2. Is that correct?

CEO_Garshon says:
CO: They've taken damage and are regrouping

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
::places a hand on the arm of his chair::  whispers:  You'll get us back one more time...  I know you will old girl.

CNS_O’Dunn says:
CO:  I wonder what they think of us?

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
CNS: Options?  Ideas on how we may be able to fool them off our tale?

CMO_Servek says:
::She cannot help but grin:: *Servek*: That's correct. Do what you can. Remember, have all of the critically wounded transported to Sickbay immediately. Yates out. ::She begins to work on the more critically wounded, finding her emotions being controlled by the Vulcan mind::

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
::hearing the CNS' last:: CNS: Raise the attackers on screen.

CEO_Garshon says:
CO: Looks like they've moved off. For now.

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
::turns to Jordan::  OPS: Mrs. Thraxis, transmit override controls of the Intrepid

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
CNS/OPS: Belay those orders  ::hearing the CEO::

OPS_Jr`dan says:
::Attempts the override ... has no idea how to use these Borg augmentations::

CMO_Servek says:
::She taps her Combadge:: *Bridge*: Sickbay to Bridge.

CNS_O’Dunn says:
::stops::  CO:  Aye.

OPS_Jr`dan says:
::stops:: CO:  Yes, Sir!

Host Coot says:
<Damien> COMM: Marat: Might I ask what you are attempting to do?

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
::hearing the CMO::  *CMO* Commander Yates....

Host Coot says:
ACTION: The Intrepid-Pen prevents the unauthorized access.

CMO_Servek says:
::She feels the urge to scream, but is stopped by some unknown force:: *CO*: Captain, if we don't find some place to gather supplies soon I fear that I won't be able to heal the next round of casualties we encounter. I just wanted... to let you know.

CNS_O’Dunn says:
::quietly::  CO:  They think we are who we appear to be and are wondering how such a motley crew assembled.

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
COMM: Pendragon: I am trying to put a stop to this temporal bubble created by the Warp 10 field.  You and your Captain can help us.

OPS_Jr`dan says:
::is feeling the Jr'dan presence in her mind getting stronger::

Host Coot says:
ACTION: Damien looks off-screen then steps away. Vn'dor Phail steps into view.

CMO_Servek says:
::After having worked with these people for seven years, she knows that they are rather use to bad news. They would survive if they had to:: Barns: Janice, what do you think you're doing?

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
*CMO* Hopefully Doctor... we won't need to worry about that for much longer.

CNS_O’Dunn says:
CO:  Tell him something only he would know.

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
::smiles::  COMM: Pendragon:  By the Prophets.. it's been a long time

CMO_Servek says:
*CO*: That's what we've said time and time again, Captain. Let’s just hope you're right. Sickbay out. ::She cuts the comm.::

CMO_Servek says:
<Nurse Barns> CMO: This man requires a dermal regenerator. A simple procedure on the two inch gash he has on the side of his left arm.

Host Coot says:
<Vn’dor> ::attempts to smile, but fails::  COMM: Marat: How did you manage to steal my  ship?

CMO_Servek says:
::She glares at the Nurse:: Barns: And then what happens when the regenerator runs out of juice? No... stitch him up the old fashioned way. We're saving all of our critical supplies.

CNS_O’Dunn says:
::looks around the bridge wondering::

CMO_Servek says:
<Nurse Barns> ::She sighs, hands Ashley the dermal regenerator, and heads to the "supply" cabinet::

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
COMM: Pendragon: Captain, do you remember the baby Iguana that kept coming to your back door when you were a young man living on Bajor?  You remember how you kept him and even took him to the stars?  To this day you don't know where he disappeared to while you were on Origist.  How many people would know about that?

Host Coot says:
ACTION: LRS sensors are picking up three new contacts, similiar to the previous attackers, closing fast. Weapons are charged and attempting to lock on.

CEO_Garshon says:
CO: We've got company

OPS_Jr`dan says:
CO:  Picking up three ships, coming in fast!

CNS_O’Dunn says:
OPS:  We have to convince them and quickly.  Are you telepathic?

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
::hearing Damien behind him::  CEO: We have to stay here and convince them...  It's now or never.

Host Coot says:
<Vn’dor> ::failed smile fails even more so::  COMM: Marat: Who are you? ::motions to someone off-screen::

CEO_Garshon says:
CO: Good luck. They think we're the enemy

OPS_Jr`dan says:
CNS:  Yes, I believe I am ...

CMO_Servek says:
::She makes her way over to a young Science Officer. Ashley notes that he seems to have second degree burns all over his forearms and chest. She sighs as she motions for one Medical Technician to administer several pain killers to the man:: Med Tech: We may have to perform a skin peel. I don't think I have a dermal regenerator with enough power.

Host Coot says:
ACTION: The Intrepid's weapons are charging and shields remain raised.

CNS_O’Dunn says:
OPS:  Could you contact your other self and convince her to help us?

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
::smirks slightly::  COMM: Pendragon: You're not going to believe this... but I am you....  trapped in this warp bubble for the last seven years.  Our supplies are running low Captain...  ::voice trailing off::  The Prophets have brought you here to help us.

OPS_Jr`dan says:
::nods:: CNS:  I could try ... ~~~ Jordan:  Jordan, hear me.  Sense me ... I am you ... ~~~

CMO_Servek says:
::She passes Janice over to the "supply" cabinet and begins to look through it. Ashley shakes her head. Over the past seven years, she has learned more tricks to the trade than every before. And to think.. she gave this all up for politics. The other Ashley probably had all her glory::

Host Coot says:
ACTION: Vn’dor looks off-screen once more and nods. He then looks back to Marat. 

Host Coot says:
<Vn’dor> COMM: Marat: Alright, you have my attention, but in about ten seconds, your three friends are going to have it. We shall continue this talk later.  ::cuts comm.::

OPS_Jr`dan says:
::opens her eyes:: CNS:  I think I got through ...

CNS_O’Dunn says:
OPS:  I think they are going to defend us.

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
::watching the image fade he turns to the CNS::  CNS: Back us off at best possible speed from the attacking ships....  I think our friends...  ::pauses and smiles::  I think we are going to help.

OPS_Jr`dan says:
::shakes her head:: CNS:  I don't know ... ::the effort of the telepathic comm. has allowed part of the original Jr'dan to get through::

CNS_O’Dunn says:
CO:  Engaging engines now, Captain.

Host Coot says:
ACTION: Three Insectoid vessels lock weapons and open fire. Two trained on the Intrepid, one on the Excelsior.

CMO_Servek says:
::She sights as she pulls out several cloths from the cabinet:: Out loud: You know.. I bet we'd find better medical supplies on a penal colony then here!

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
::raised voice watching the incoming fire::  CEO: Shields up Commander??

CEO_Garshon says:
CO: shields are up

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
CNS: Best evasive action you can manage Quinn

CNS_O’Dunn says:
CO:  Aye Captain.  ::engages evasive pattern Beta 312::

CMO_Servek says:
::Ashley feels the ship shake as the Pendragon is hit with more weapons fire:: Self: This just keeps getting better and better. ::She moves over to a medical console and brings up what is going on around the Pen on screen::

CNS_O’Dunn says:
::is finding his mothers calm logic very helpful::

Host Coot says:
ACTION: The initial phaser fire strikes both vessels; no damage. The Intrepid returns fire.

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
CEO/OPS: Commander... Thraxis... what more can we get out of the engines?

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
OPS: How are the weapons systems?

OPS_Jr`dan says:
CEO:  I could try to re-route power from non-critical systems ...

OPS_Jr`dan says:
::checks weapons::

CEO_Garshon says:
CO: You're getting all you're going to get...I can give you a little more on weapons, but not much

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
CEO: Then do it!  ::walks over to OPS::

CEO_Garshon says:
::shunts power to the weapons::

OPS_Jr`dan says:
::looks:: CO:  Weapons are fully operational.

CNS_O’Dunn says:
::continues evasive maneuvers::

CMO_Servek says:
::She just shakes her head as she moves over to one of the stretchers that has been placed in a corner to act like a Biobed:: Combs: Make sure Cargo Bay 2 is ready for some more incoming.

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
::leaning over the Jr'dan figure::  OPS: Target their bridge Jordan Thraxis....  no time to play it Starfleet.  Fire when ready.

Host Coot says:
ACTION: Weapons report 110% of capacity. They are the one thing that appears to have been upgraded in this existence.

CNS_O’Dunn says:
::lays in an attack course and engages::

OPS_Jr`dan says:
::targets the bridge::

OPS_Jr`dan says:
CO:  bridge targeted.

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
::hearing Jordan he pauses and swallows hard looking for a last minute option and not finding it::  OPS: Fire.

OPS_Jr`dan says:
::fires torpedoes::

Host Coot says:
ACTION: The Excelsior Pen fires a wide-angle phaser blast that severs the bridge off the Insectoid vessel in half.

CNS_O’Dunn says:
::veers off and resumes evasives::

OPS_Jr`dan says:
Self:  Yes!

CEO_Garshon says:
OPS: Nice shot. They're all dead now.

OPS_Jr`dan says:
::her face hardens as she turns to "Marat"::

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
::grips Jordan's shoulder::  OPS: Nice shooting.   ::leans in and whispers::  Remember...  the order was on my head  ::turns and heads back to the center and the FCO's console::

CMO_Servek says:
::She notices that one of the Biobeds was empty:: Med Tech: Jamison, help me transport this patient over there. ::She motions to the Biobed and for the man to come over::

OPS_Jr`dan says:
<Jr'dan> CO:  No, it was all mine.  ::Stands::

CNS_O’Dunn says:
::is afraid OPS has let herself go::

Host Coot says:
ACTION: One of the other Insectoid vessels breaks off and engages the Excelsior. It is a far bigger and more equipped vessel.

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
::begins to speak to the counsellor but stops and turns hearing Jordan:: OPS: Mrs. Thraxis?

CNS_O’Dunn says:
CEO:  Take over weapons!

OPS_Jr`dan says:
::smiles:: CO:  Not exactly ...

CEO_Garshon says:
CNS: Got it

CEO_Garshon says:
::takes tactical::

Host Coot says:
ACTION: The Intrepid vessel is still playing the good guys and is merely attempting to disable the third vessel.

CEO_Garshon says:
::fires at the large ship, phasers at maximum intensity::

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
::notices something not right in the gleam in her eye::  OPS: You are relieved, take some time out and rest in your quarters.

OPS_Jr`dan says:
::takes out a battered disruptor and points it at the CO:: CO:  You are not Marat.  Who are you?

Host Coot says:
ACTION: J'rdan's weapon looks as if it would do more damage as a dagger than as a phaser.

CNS_O’Dunn says:
Self:  For crying out loud  ::hits his/her commbadge::  *Security*  Emergency on the bridge.

CMO_Servek says:
::Once the patient is moved over to the next Biobed, Ashley has the Med Tech begin to work on him. She makes her way toward the replicator::

Host Coot says:
ACTION: The phaser blast severs off a chunk of the Insectoid vessel's hull and one of its nacelles.

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
::stands up straighter in sudden shock seeing the weapon::  OPS: It's me...  Captain Vn'dor.  ::looking to the CEO briefly::

CNS_O’Dunn says:

::Her pointy ears perk slightly at the sound:: *CO*: On my way, Captain. ::She grabs a med kit and makes her way to the Bridge::

CNS_O’Dunn says:
CEO:  It never rains but it pours, as they used to say on Earth....

OPS_Jr`dan says:
::using her Borg implants, she breaks free and shoots the closest guard::

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
*CMO* Doctor, you have a "Jr'dan" coming down with security to see you.  Please meet them halfway with a hypo to put her under

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
::sighs heavily::  CEO: Commander... status of the battle.

CEO_Garshon says:
::sighs:: CNS: Like we'll see earth again. One or the other of these ships will take us out. ::fires a full spread of torpedoes at the large insectiod ship::

CNS_O’Dunn says:
::tries to ignore the commotion and focus on flying::

OPS_Jr`dan says:
::moving quickly, she runs behind the CO and grabs him.

CEO_Garshon says:
CO: One down, two to go

Host Coot says:
ACTION: The Excelsior launches a series of torpedoes that strike the Insectoid vessel with the force of an exploding star. Shockwaves ripple through the area, knocking out main power on all the vessels.

CMO_Servek says:
*CO*: Understood, Captain. ::She continues to walk fast paced to the Turbo Lift. As she walks, she takes out a Hypo spray and prepares it. She has heard stories about Jr'dan from others::

CNS_O’Dunn says:
CEO:  Nice shot.  ::sitting in the dark::

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
::stiffens as the Jr'dan figure grabs her::  OPS: Mrs. Thraxis....  I know you are in there, this is not your  way

CEO_Garshon says:
::pauses:: CO: Maybe I overdid it on that last volley

Host Coot says:
ACTION: Emergency lighting pops to life on the Pendragon.

CNS_O’Dunn says:
CEO:  I think security needs to run more drills.

CEO_Garshon says:
::moves to engineering and tried to restore main power::

OPS_Jr`dan says:
::points the ugly weapon at the CO's head:: CO:  Oh, she's in here ... but she's not available at the moment ...

CMO_Servek says:
::She enters a Turbo Lift and orders it to the Bridge::

Host Coot says:
ACTION: Out of the corner of his eye, the CO can see the charge on J'rdan's weapon is near non-existent.

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
Self: By the Prophets....  ::raises his voice:: OPS: MRS.THRAXIS!!!  You WILL stand down or face deadly consequences

CMO_Servek says:
::Once the Turbo Lift reaches the Bridge, Ashley steps out onto it and makes her way over toward Jr'dan rather slowly.::

CEO_Garshon says:
CO: Just kill her. She Always comes back.

OPS_Jr`dan says:
CO:  I don't think so, Captain.  ALL:  Anyone who makes a move against me ... your Captain will die ...

Host Coot says:
ACTION: Having grown accustomed to the after-effects of his monstrous creations, Damien restores full power to the Pen. The other two vessels are dead in the water.

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
::gets the idea from the power level to extend a lie slightly::  OPS: Too bad you are out of power on your weapon.  ::motions with his head::  Go ahead and look for yourself

CNS_O’Dunn says:
OPS:  You don't have a chance.  Stand down.

CNS_O’Dunn says:
::wonders why the security team is just standing there and not stunning the woman::

OPS_Jr`dan says:
CO:  You forget ... I am part Borg ...

CEO_Garshon says:
::grabs a phaser from under his console and fires it on heavy stun at J'rdan::

CMO_Servek says:
::She watches Jr'dan closely. When she makes a move to look at her weapon, she would make her move::

Host Coot says:
ACTION: The security team, in classic security team sense, is afraid to act for fear of harming the Captain.

CNS_O’Dunn says:
CEO:  We need to get shields back up before the other regains power

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
::hears a phaser discharge from the CEO's direction::

OPS_Jr`dan says:
::senses something behind her ... turns so the CO gets the blast::

CEO_Garshon says:
::fires again::

CEO_Garshon says:
CNS: We have more pressing needs

Host Coot says:
ACTION: The CO is hit and goes down, Unfortunately, J'rdan no longer has a shield and is hit by the second volley.

OPS_Jr`dan says:
::staggers::

CEO_Garshon says:
::fires at Jr'dan again::

CNS_O’Dunn says:
::watches OPS go down::  CEO:  How about now?

Host CO_Gul_Marat says:
::on the floor with a thud::

CEO_Garshon says:
CNS: Have 'em up in a jiffy

CNS_O’Dunn says:
::is relieved to notice the CMO has made it to the bridge::

CNS_O’Dunn says:
::monitors the other ships as best he/she can::

CMO_Servek says:
::She looks over at Jr'dan on the floor:: CEO: How dangerous is this woman, Commander? ::She makes her way over to her and injects her with the sedative just in case::

CEO_Garshon says:
CMO: She can be very dangerous. See to the captain

OPS_Jr`dan says:
::slumps to the floor::

Host Coot says:
ACTION: J'rdan's body twitches unconsciously, attempting to fight off the effects of the weapon and injection.

CNS_O’Dunn says:
CEO:  I don't think I can take another seven years of living with her.

CMO_Servek says:
::She makes her way over to the Captain and begins to look him over. She cannot help but smirk as she watches him::

CEO_Garshon says:
::shrugs:: CNS: Well, as Cardassians, we could just kill her for threatening the captain.

CNS_O’Dunn says:
::rants::  CEO:   Not only is she inherently evil, she keeps stealing all my cosmetics.

CNS_O’Dunn says:
::can't believe he just said that::

CMO_Servek says:
::She looks back toward the CNS for a moment:: CNS: Wow.. you are enjoying this switch aren't you?

Host Coot says:
<Vn’dor> COMM: Pen: Marat: What was that?!? ::comm. cuts out before he can say anything else::

CMO_Servek says:
::She takes out a hypo spray and injects the CO with a stimulant to bring him out of his deep slumber::

CNS_O’Dunn says:
::starts humming "I enjoy being a girl"::

CEO_Garshon says:
::suddenly moved by  the flight control officer. Moves close to her:: CNS: You mean you wear makeup? ::can't believe it:: I never knew.

Host Coot says:
ACTION: The third Insectoid vessel remains without power, but directly in the CEO's cross-hairs.
