OPS_Zax says:  :;continues to reroute power::

MO_Ayla says:  ::enters sickbay and reporting for duty::

Host Karriaunna says:  Action:  Shields are down 75%

X_Bo`o says:  @:: closely following the Pendragon ::

V_Kar says:  @::paces up and down the command deck:: Kitty: Fire at will.

XO_Vraylle says:  ::holds on to the panel, and quickly reroutes battery power to the shields::

CEO_Wilkens says:  CO: Sir, shields down to 75%...

X_Kitty says:  @V_Kar: Aye sir.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  *Jolade*:  We in the Federation have a certain code to live by... we will do what we can for these people.

FCO_Tim says:  ::makes heading 325.47:: CTO: Yes Sir!!

X_Bo`o says:  @:: engages to full speed to pass the Pendragon ::

EO_Harhn says:  *CEO,OPS* Shields are weakening and we are running low on power reserves

V_Kar says:  @Kitty: What is the status of our shields?

Jolade says:  *CO*:  The window of opportunity is closing, your ship and crew can return to the alpha quadrant, but it is your decision......I leave it up to you......your XO's configuration will not get you home entirely.........

CTO_Tealk says:  ::prepares the warhead, sending one of his officers down to prep it::

EO_Harhn says:  ::Begins plasma vent::

B`Lyn says:  ::Becoming very worried. leaves her quarters::

CEO_Wilkens says:  *ME*: Cease venting, close the ports.

EO_Harhn says:  *CEO* Have pulled as much reserve power as we can muster sir

CEO_Wilkens says:  CO: Acknowledged, sir.

CTO_Tealk says:  ::waits for the Pendragon to gain some distance and energizes:: CO : Warhead transported , sir..

CMO_Varr says:  ::nearly winces as damage control lights of his board like a Chardren festival::

EO_Harhn says:  ::Close plasma ports::

Host Karriaunna says:  Action:  OPS console explodes

V_Kar says:  @Kitty: Good.  Transfer auxiliary power to the shields and the ionic pulse cannon.

FCO_Tim says:  ::at the Conn., and we are heading 324.47::

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Hurries from his previous position to the OPS station, now burned out::

OPS_Zax says:  :;falls back::

Host Karriaunna says:  Action: Energy weapons rock the Pendragon

B`Lyn says:  ::Enters a TL:: TL: Bridge?

CSO_Larek says:  ::looks as the OPS console explodes::

X_Bo`o says:  @:: turns the ship around 180 degrees and sets full speed, head on at the Pendragon ::

EO_Harhn says:  ::Rocks with the explosion::

FCO_Tim says:  CO: Direct hit sir!!!

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  ::grabs his armrest for support::

CTO_Tealk says:  ::waits for the results of the explosion::

V_Kar says:  @Bo'o: Keep us at a distance of ten kellirams relative to the vessel.

CEO_Wilkens says:  CSO: Reroute OPS control to secondary panel aft-Alpha1, my control. ::Glances to the CO for approval::

CMO_Varr says:  ::runs scans on Zax, administering a mild pain suppressant as he does::

XO_Vraylle says:  ::crashes to floor, clumsily::

X_Bo`o says:  @V: WE are coming for another pass.

MO_Ayla says:  ::is knocked down from the jolt::

EO_Harhn says:  *CEO* Sir if we can shut evacuate and shut down a few decks I can give you more power

OPS_Zax says:  ::moans::

X_Bo`o says:  @V: We should fire continuously now.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  CTO: Report, any damage to the Korvith?

Host Karriaunna says:  Action:  The torpedo takes out one of the alien ships and knocks the shields out on another

V_Kar says:  @Kitty: Set the ionic cannon to full power.  Fire weapons continuously.

XO_Vraylle says:  ::clambers up, notes a burned out relay prevented the battery transfer...bypasses::

X_Kitty says:  @V_Kar: Firing.  ::fires continuously::

CSO_Larek says:  CEO: Aye sir ::reroutes OPS over to the secondary panel::

CTO_Tealk says:  ::targets the shieldless ship and fires:: CO : Two ships down sir..

FCO_Tim says:  CO: We destroyed one alien vessel sir.

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Shakes his head clear of his emotions and touches his badge:: *ENG*: Implement this plan with the minimal amount of evacuation... Evacuate to Cargo Bays.

Host Karriaunna says:  Action:  Shields on the Pen down to 50%

B`Lyn says:  ::Walks out of the TL and stands quietly in the back of the room::

MO_Ayla says:  ::stands up, looks around for any casualties...prepares for injured who may come in::

EO_Harhn says:  *CEO* Aye sir

CTO_Tealk says:  CO : Sir.. Our shield are halfway through..

XO_Vraylle says:  ::ponders where else to get power::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  *XO*:  Can we use the warp drive without engaging the Regnum?

CEO_Wilkens says:  CO: Sir, shields down to 50%... Anything past this and it will be impossible to implement Regnum!

X_Bo`o says:  @:: engages evasive maneuvers and launches counter measures ::

OPS_Zax says:  ::begins to come to::

X_Bo`o says:  @:: turns around for another pass ::

EO_Harhn says:  *CTO* Sir, can you please evacuate 2 decks to the cargo bays

FCO_Tim says:  CO: A few more hits like that sir and we are a sitting duck!!

CSO_Larek says:  CTO: Perhaps if we fire tachyon bursts they will have to reset their shield modulation.

XO_Vraylle says:  *CO*: The warp drive is the Regnum design at the moment.

CTO_Tealk says:  *EO* : What for?

X_Kitty says:  @::keeps shooting::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  FCO: Continue your evasive patterns.  Do not give them a target to lock onto.

V_Kar says:  @Kitty: How many ships left?

Host Karriaunna says:  Action:  Various stations on the ship begin to short out.

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Shields his eyes from the bright flash of a nearby torpedo exploding on the VS:: CMO: What's Lt. Zax's condition?

EO_Harhn says:  *CTO*  To shut them down for extra power

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  ::hears the CSO::  CTO:  Do it.

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Watches another panel explode and shortout... sparks flying vividly::

FCO_Tim says:  CO: I have got their shield on target. Passing the coordinates to the CTO. ::runs it through to the CTO's console::

CTO_Tealk says:  ::taps a few buttons, with no response:: CO : Sir... We're loosing weapons controls... CEO : TJ!!!..

X_Kitty says:  @V_Kar: Five, sir.

CMO_Varr says:  ::observes the scans results with a grunt:: CEO: Just some minor burns.

X_Kitty says:  @V_Kar: Wait... only three useful.

XO_Vraylle says:  ::sees that weapons are failing, rips open a panel::

OPS_Zax says:  ::looks up at CMO::

V_Kar says:  @Kitty: Three?! ::curses::

B`Lyn says:  ::Sees sparks fly. Crouches by the wall::

X_Bo`o says:  @:: sets targeting to fire at the weak points of the shield grid ::

V_Kar says:  @::Self: He will not be pleased.::

CSO_Larek says:  CEO: Systems are beginning to short out sir.

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Moves over to another panel, tapping furiously at the instruments. Thinks for a moment::

X_Kitty says:  @V_Kar: Continuing to fire, sir.

OPS_Zax says:  ::struggles to sit up::

XO_Vraylle says:  COMPUTER: Lower the forcefield in main engineering.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  Computer:  Disengage all external sensors from view to crew.  Close all external window Blast doors.  FCO: Set heading to sector 001.

EO_Harhn says:  *CTO* Sir we need the power from those two decks

MO_Ayla says:  ::she treats some wounded who come into sickbay...broken arm, concussion...minor burns::

Host Karriaunna says:  Action:  one of the alien ships comes back on line

CEO_Wilkens says:  CTO/CSO/CO: I'm rerouting power from our shuttles, and runabout... It'll take 5 or so minutes, and a few odd modifications, but...

XO_Vraylle says:  ::listens to the computer beep in compliance, and watches the power return to ship systems::

CMO_Varr says:  ::gently pulls her off to the side of the bridge and begins applying some dermaline gel to the areas affected, curing the burns almost instantly::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  ::is unhappy about what he is going to do::

CTO_Tealk says:  *EO* : Very well.. ::comms the crew on decks 4 and 5 to evacuate::

X_Bo`o says:  @:: sends a message to all ships to fire in one focused area ::

XO_Vraylle says:  *CO*: Sir, this warp design requires more power. If we take any more damage, the warp drive will go offline::

CSO_Larek says:  ::looks over to the CTO:: This battle could be over in 5 minutes.

V_Kar says:  @Bo'o: Put us behind and underneath them.  Their shields are weakest there.

FCO_Tim says:  CO: Yes sir, home sir, 001!!! ::sets course for 001::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  *XO*:  Power up the device and initiate.

EO_Harhn says:  ::Begins rerouting power from decks 4 and 5 to the shield emitters::

X_Bo`o says:  @V: Already done.

OPS_Zax says:  ::sighs with relief as the gel touches the burns::

CMO_Varr says:  OPS: Don't push yourself.  ::helps her into the seat at a side station::

CTO_Tealk says:  ::looks worried at the CSO::

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Keying furiously into his panel, wiping sweat and a bead of blood from his forehead:: *EO*: See if this works... ::Initiates the power transfers::

XO_Vraylle says:  *CO*: Understood. ::presses the one button he was waiting to press::

Jolade says:  ::begins his telepathy and re-orientates the ship's computer core and M/ARC to invoke a Transwarp conduit with the emission of a tachyon burst from the main deflector dish.......::

CEO_Wilkens says:  CMO: Doctor, get Lieutenant Zax off the Bridge if she's unable to perform her duties; if she is, get her to a console!

EO_Harhn says:  *CEO* I have just transferred power from decks 4 and 5 and now this , it should make a difference

CSO_Larek says:  ::starts to wonder what is going on but decides not to ask::

Host Karriaunna says:  Action:  The Regnum device in conjunction with Jolade interact.... a Transwarp corridor is opened

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  ::Silently prays for the Lerilites::

V_Kar says:  @Bo'o: Good.  Kitty: Prepare to order all ships to fire simultaneously on this heading. ::relays coordinates::

OPS_Zax says:  ::struggles to stand:: CMO: I'm okay, Doc

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Glances worriedly at his readouts:: CO: My God, sir... A conduit...

X_Bo`o says:  @V: A conduit is opening.

X_Kitty says:  @V: Aye sir.  ::relays the coordinates and tells the others to fire on her mark::

XO_Vraylle says:  ::notices what Jolade has done, carefully tunes and monitors the Regnum drive to take full advantage of it::

CTO_Tealk says:  ::looks at the screen.. perplexed::

CSO_Larek says:  ::looks on as a conduit is opened::

FCO_Tim says:  CO: Sir a Transwarp corridor has opened. Off the starboard bow!!!

Host Karriaunna says:  Action:  The Ship goes to Transwarp leaving behind the Lerilites to their fate.....

CMO_Varr says:  OPS:  The pain suppressant is going to make you a bit groggy.  ::glares over at the CEO:: But I can counteract it.  You will have the pain, but your mind will be clear.  Your choice.

EO_Harhn says:  ::Dispatches damage crews to begin essential repairs::

OPS_Zax says:  CMO: I'll deal with the pain....

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Moves back over to the XO's chair, glancing cautiously at the CO:: CO: Sir, another couple of minutes-- The Lerilites...

CEO_Wilkens says:  *ENG*: Report.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  CEO:  I don't believe this is how the Regnum is supposed to work is it?

B`Lyn says:  ::Wonders what a Transwarp conduit could be::

CMO_Varr says:  ::feels his insides wrench as the ship slips into TW::

EO_Harhn says:  *CEO* I have dispatched damage control teams to fix essential systems

MO_Ayla says:  ::sees MO Lauren walking up to her looking at her funny::

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Chokes back his emotions:: CO: Not entirely, sir... no...

XO_Vraylle says:  ::wonders how the drive would have worked without Jolade's "assistance"::

CMO_Varr says:  ::shakes his head slightly, applying the counter-agent to Zax::

X_Bo`o says:  @:: changes course to attack the Lerilites ::

CTO_Tealk says:  ::sits down on his chair.. wondering where they will end up::

CEO_Wilkens says:  CO: But we hadn't anticipated this...::Motions to the ruins of the Bridge::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  CEO:  I know T.J....  I know.  I only pray that they can overcome this on their own.

OPS_Zax says:  ::grimaces and walks over to a console::

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Turns away from the Captain, staring at the VS::

OPS_Zax says:  CMO: Thanks, Doc ::smiles faintly::

EO_Harhn says:  *CEO* Minor damage to shield emitters and back up power reserves are in use

Host Karriaunna says:  Action:  The ship quickly is 1000 light years.... following its original course into the Beta Quad back to the Alpha Quad.

Jolade says:  *CO*:  Captain, I have set the ships computer to interact with your XO's project 'Regnum' it will remain stable until reaching Sector 001, there will be no computer record of this.  The Regnum project would of gotten you out of harms way, but not all the way home to 001.........I myself have been made an unwilling passenger

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  *XO*:  What are the sensor readings down there on the return trip Commander?

CSO_Larek says:  ::watches the VS with interest::

FCO_Tim says:  CO: Sir we have entered the alpha quadrant!!!!!!

OPS_Zax says:  CEO: Rerouting OPS back to me, Sir

V_Kar says:  @Kitty: Order the fleet to return to the planet.  Resume the attack.  ::sits in his chair::

B`Lyn says:  ::Stands up and steps forward::

CEO_Wilkens says:  OPS: Understood...

XO_Vraylle says:  *CO*: The conduit is stable, and the Regnum sensors are keeping us on course.

MO_Ayla says:  MO_Lauren: Hello DR...I have taken care of several casualties....are there more?

X_Kitty says:  @V: Aye sir.

CMO_Varr says:  ::starts listening to the bridge chatter trying to understand what is happening::

EO_Harhn says:  ::Monitors engine read-outs::

XO_Vraylle says:  *CO*: Although I must admit I was not expecting a Transwarp conduit. The journey will take longer in this fashion.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  *Jolade*: We owe you a great debt of gratitude.  We'll contact SF Command and try and work out a way to return you home.  Thank you for everything.

FCO_Tim says:  ::smiles cause we are in the AQ::

OPS_Zax says:  ::begins to recalibrate power settings::

CSO_Larek says:  ::checks all science systems::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  *XO*: It seems our friend...  Jolade has given your drive a little push.

Jolade says:  *CO*:  We will talk again soon Captain.  You and your Crew are welcome, I believe is the phrase

B`Lyn says:  ::Thinks this may be the best time.  Steps a little closer to the captain:: CO: Excuse me, where are we?

OPS_Zax says:  ::monitoring comm. relays::

XO_Vraylle says:  *CO*: So it would seem. I believe, however, that we would have been successful regardless.

FCO_Tim says:  CO: Sir are we...home?

CEO_Wilkens says:  CO: Sir... I'm receiving damage and...::Pauses::...Fatality reports...::Harshly:: Our way home came at quite a price... sir.

CMO_Varr says:  <MO Lauren> MO Ayla: Yes ::pointing:: Take bed three.  Nurse Kiandra will help you.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  *XO*:  You may return us to normal space...  shut down the drive Commander.

CTO_Tealk says:  ::suddenly, stand up, and gets a pale look on his face:: Self  :Aurora?

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Passes the CO a PADD::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  CEO:  You are excused to see to their repair.  ::takes the PADD::

CSO_Larek says:  ::hears the CEOs statement::

OPS_Zax says:  ::shakes head sadly at CEO's words::

B`Lyn says:  CO: Captain?

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Tightly:: CO: Aye... Thank you, sir.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  Computer:  Return all external sensors and blast doors to normal operating procedures.

XO_Vraylle says:  *CO*: Understood. ::presses the same button to disengage the drive::

CTO_Tealk says:  ::rushes to the Captain:: CO : Sir... Permission to go to sickbay..

FCO_Tim says:  Self: Home, my dad's transmission. Sharkly city, Rigel 4. Earth. ::whispers tear:: Self: We are home.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  ::turns to the young Leralite::  B'Lyn:  Yes B'Lyn?

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Turns on his heel and enters the TL, nodding to those present on the Bridge::

MO_Ayla says:  MO Lauren: Yes sir. ::walks over to the bed::

B`Lyn says:  CO: Where are we? Do you know where my people are? ::Quietly::

Host Karriaunna says:  Action:  Drive continues to function

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Requests Main Engineering, surprised when the TLs are, indeed, operable::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  *XO*: See to the drives demolition and data purge.

OPS_Zax says:  ::grimaces in pain::

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Enters Main Engineering::

XO_Vraylle says:  *CO*: Aye sir. ::walks to the emitter and physically disconnects its power source::

Host Karriaunna says:  Action:  The Pendragon is 2000 Ly heading towards the alpha quad

EO_Harhn says:  Chief Hengrove: Please report on Damage control teams progress

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Self: At least some damn thing is working around here::

FCO_Tim says:  CO: Sir we are 2000 ly toward the AQ!

CTO_Tealk says:  ::looks scared.. eager to leave:: CO : Sir....

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Enters his office, and slumps onto a burned-out console::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  ::sighs::  B'Lyn:  We have had to make a hasty escape.  Trust me when I say, we will do whatever we can for your people.

EO_Harhn says:  ::Nods to CEO. CEO: Sir, repairs are underway as we speak

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Ignores the EO, passing him... Pausing only to nod::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  ::hears the FCO::  *XO*:  Have you not shut that thing down yet?

OPS_Zax says:  ::begins to detect subspace chatter::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  CTO:  You are excused Commander.

XO_Vraylle says:  *CO*: Trying, sir.

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Places his head in his hands, and silently surveys the damage::

CMO_Varr says:  ::notices Zax pained expression and moves over to her::  OPS: This isn't working.  You need to report to sickbay.  Someone else can man this station.

B`Lyn says:  ::Nods slowly:: CO: I-- Thank you Captain.

CTO_Tealk says:  ::nods, and runs to the TL::

CTO_Tealk says:  ~~~~ Aurora~~~~ ::he fails to get a reply...

OPS_Zax says:  XO: Am detecting some subspace chatter, Sir...nothing familiar yet

OPS_Zax says:  ::shakes her head at the CMO:: CMO: Soon, Sir...I'm needed here

XO_Vraylle says:  ::pulls a few more wires away from the emitter::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  OPS:  Transmit all data from our time in the Beta Quadrant as well as related Duty Logs to SF Command.

B`Lyn says:  ::Walks to the back of the bridge, but continues to watch, hoping she won't be told to leave::

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Exits his office:: EO: I want a damage report on my desk within the hour. Bring Alpha Shift back on, and excuse reserve and delta.

CMO_Varr says:  ::looking a bit more firm:: OPS: It wasn't a request, Lt.  Report to sickbay or I will have someone carry you there.

CSO_Larek says:  ::continues to monitor::

OPS_Zax says:  CO: Aye, Sir...as soon as I get a clear channel

EO_Harhn says:  CEO: Aye sir

OPS_Zax says:  ::looks at CMO::

XO_Vraylle says:  *CO*: Sir, I have physically disconnected the drive from all power sources, but it is still functional. Jolade is likely responsible.

CEO_Wilkens says:  EO: Any idea where the XO is, Ensign?

FCO_Tim says:  ::wipes tear, and laughs:: Self: I never thought I would hear that word again. Home!

CSO_Larek says:  ALL: We are not there yet.

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Glances across ME, and spots him:: EO: never mind... If you'll excuse me.

OPS_Zax says:  CMO: When I can, I will, Sir

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  ::acknowledges the XO's COMM::  *Jolade*:  Are you behind the continued Transwarp travel?

Jolade says:  *CO*:  Captain, the Transwarp conduit will collapse on it’s own at Sector 001, and not a moment before......there is nothing to fear..........

XO_Vraylle says:  ::raises an eyebrow, and proceeds to clean the computer and remove the drive::

EO_Harhn says:  ::Taps comm. badge:: *Alpha shift* Please report to ME

CEO_Wilkens says:  XO: Do you need any help, sir?

FCO_Tim says:  ::takes a deep breath:: Self: We are not there, relax and do your work.

OPS_Zax says:  ::taps console::

XO_Vraylle says:  ::nods to the CEO:: CEO: We need to remove all trace of this drive.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  *XO*:  Commander, Jolade has just confirmed that the conduit will dissipate when we arrive at sector 001.  He assures us all is well.

CEO_Wilkens says:  XO: Aye-aye, sir. ::Moves over to another panel::

CTO_Tealk says:  ::exits the TL, bound for sickbay::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  FCO:  Time to sector 001.

OPS_Zax says:  CMO: The pain is tolerable, Sir

XO_Vraylle says:  *CO*: He should no longer require our drive. Perhaps you could entice him to release the power flow for disassembly.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  OPS:  How are your burns?  You ok?

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Taps at his panel for a long moment, blankly monitoring the computer read-outs::

EO_Harhn says:  ::As alpha shift arrives in ME, Harhn dismisses the other shift crews::

OPS_Zax says:  CO: Yes, Sir...I'll be fine

FCO_Tim says:  CO: Sir I can not tell, we are still in Transwarp.

CMO_Varr says:  ::eyes Zax, measuring the truth in her voice::  OPS: As soon as this TW collapses or fifteen minutes, you report to sickbay or I will carry you there myself.

OPS_Zax says:  CMO: Looks at CMO pleadingly::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  *XO*:  Acknowledged.  *Jolade*: Would you be kind enough to release the power flow through the Regnum in order for my staff to disassemble it?

OPS_Zax says:  CMO: I will, Sir...I promise

EO_Harhn says:  ::After briefing alpha shift about the needed repairs, Harhn sits to compose a report for the CEO::

XO_Vraylle says:  ::closes a panel and removes some more code::

MO_Ayla says:  ::swears under her breath as she pretends to do her job::

CMO_Varr says:  ::offers a very discrete smile:: OPS:  I know you will ::sitting down at the station next to her:: I will make sure of it.

Jolade says:  *CO*:  Yes Captain, the repair team will see the plasma flow cease  ::Jolade telepathically shunts the plasma flow from the Regnum Warp coil::

FCO_Tim says:  :;still on the bridge and at the Conn.::

CSO_Larek says:  ::decides to record data on the Transwarp conduit::

Host Karriaunna says:  Action:  The ship is 2500 LY to the Alpha quad

OPS_Zax says:  ::sighs:: CMO: I'm sure you will, Sir

MO_Ayla says:  Self: What a time to be in disguise and trying to steal medical supplies. ::she watches over her shoulder::

XO_Vraylle says:  ::sees the power flow cease, and removes the emitter:: CEO: Replace the original coils.

FCO_Tim says:  CO: Sir we are 2500 ly for the AQ!

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  *XO*:  Commander.  You should be able to remove the system now.  Jolade has ceased the Plasma Flow.

XO_Vraylle says:  *CO*: It is already removed, sir. Replacing original components now.

CEO_Wilkens says:  XO: Right...::Keys another key-stroke into his panel::... Done, sir.

CTO_Tealk says:  ::enters sickbay::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  FCO:  Too bad every Starship doesn't have a Jolade of it's own eh Ensign?  ::smiles::

XO_Vraylle says:  ::locks the last connection into place::

CEO_Wilkens says:  XO: Done here.

XO_Vraylle says:  COMPUTER: Activate sequence Vraylle eta fourteen.

FCO_Tim says:  CO: ::nods:: Yes sir, it is too bad. I hope we get back sir. Don't you?

MO_Ayla says:  ::certain no one recognizes she is not part of the crew now, she goes back to duties near the medical supply units::

CTO_Tealk says:  ::he reaches a given biobed and stares... He can't believe it..::

Host Karriaunna says:  Action:  The ship begins to slow as it approaches 001

XO_Vraylle says:  <COMPUTER> XO: Acknowledged. Listed files and data deleted and storage space reinitialized.

FCO_Tim says:  CO: We are approaching sector 001.

XO_Vraylle says:  CEO: The emitters, Commander. ::holds his hand out to receive them::

CEO_Wilkens says:  XO: out of curiosity, sir, how long have you been planning for this contingency?

OPS_Zax says:  ::subspace chatter increases::

MO_Ayla says:  CTO: Oh, hello sir...what is wrong?

CSO_Larek says:  ::senses something is wrong with Tealk:: *CTO*: Is everything ok Commander?

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Does as the XO requests and passes them to him::

XO_Vraylle says:  ::gives the CEO a flat look:: CEO: Since the beginning.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  FCO: Good.  ::breaths a sigh of relief::  OPS: Open a shipwide COMM.

CEO_Wilkens says:  XO: Impressive.

XO_Vraylle says:  ::places the emitters on the floor and draws his phaser::

CTO_Tealk says:  MO : What.. What happened? ::cleans a small tear from his eye::

Host Karriaunna says:  Action:  Aurora slips into a coma

OPS_Zax says:  CO: aye, Sir ::taps console::

OPS_Zax says:  CO: Comm. open

XO_Vraylle says:  ::sets the phaser to a rather high power level and fires and the emitters, destroying them utterly::

MO_Ayla says:  CTO: Are you alright? You seem disoriented.

FCO_Tim says:  CO: Yes it is good. I hope I get my father message to me. ::looks up and puts fingers in a locked position:: I hope.

CMO_Varr says:  <MO Lauren>  CTO:  They are both stable for now.

CTO_Tealk says:  MO : What happened to Aurora? ::motions to bio-bed::

XO_Vraylle says:  ::returns his phaser to the stun setting and puts it away::

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Observes the XO before turning back to his instruments::

CTO_Tealk says:  Lauren : What.. How.. What happened?

CSO_Larek says:  ::hears no reply and returns to his work::

XO_Vraylle says:  CEO: As mentioned before, none of this is to be mentioned. Not anywhere, nor to anyone.

Host Karriaunna says:  Action:  The ship comes to a complete stop 1 ly from Avalon station

CEO_Wilkens says:  XO: Absolutely, sir...

CTO_Tealk says:  ::he goes to the head of the biobed, and takes Aurora’s hand..

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  *ALL*:  Attention all hands...  It is my great pleasure to announce in combination with a top secret project and our new found friend Jolade, we have made it back to Federation space.  A small celebration will be held in Crystal Cave Lounge at 2000 hrs.  Vn'dor out.

CMO_Varr says:  <MO Lauren> CTO: She was in one of the damaged sections.  She was just brought in a while ago.  As I said, she is stable, and so is her child.

FCO_Tim says:  ::sits back and relaxes in his chair at the Conn.:: CO: We are 1 ly from the Avalon station.

OPS_Zax says:  ::closes comm.::

XO_Vraylle says:  ::walks toward the doors:: CEO: Engineering is yours.

EO_Harhn says:  ::Is stunned at the announcement::

MO_Ayla says:  ::she takes out her tricorder:: CTO: Sir, Dr. Lauren is over there...I am Ayla. ::she begins scanning him::

CTO_Tealk says:  ::looks surprised at Lauren for a moment, then speaks:: MO : Child?

OPS_Zax says:  ::transmits subspace to SFC::

CEO_Wilkens says:  XO: Thank you, sir...

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  OPS: Open hailing frequencies with Avalon.

XO_Vraylle says:  ::exits engineering, for once having had enough engineering for a while::

B`Lyn says:  ::Hears the announcement and has a feeling she won't see home for a while::

CMO_Varr says:  <MO Lauren> ::looks suspiciously at MO_Ayla:: MO: I'm not sure I remember having met you before.  What shift do you work?

OPS_Zax says:  CO: Aye, Sir...hailing frequencies open

XO_Vraylle says:  ::enters TL:: TL: Bridge.

FCO_Tim says:  ::sits back and remembers a long journey come to an end::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  COMM: Avalon Station:  Avalon Station, this is Vn'dor Phail of the U.S.S. Pendragon.  Do you read?

CSO_Larek says:  ::does a LRS::

CMO_Varr says:  <MO Lauren> CTO: Yes... Oh... I'm sorry, I thought you knew.  She is pregnant.

CTO_Tealk says:  ~~~~ Aurora.. I am here..~~~ ::tears running down his face::

OPS_Zax says:  ::grimaces slightly::

XO_Vraylle says:  ::does not welcome what he must do next::

CMO_Varr says:  OPS: Okay, LT.  Time to go to sickbay.

XO_Vraylle says:  ::exits TL and enters bridge::

Host AvalonStation says:  COMM: Pendragon: CO:  Welcome back.  You have been listed missing in action.  Can we be of service?

CTO_Tealk says:  ::drops his head: on the bio bed, his hand holding Aurora's:: This is not happening.. This is not happening..

MO_Ayla says:  MO Lauren: Uh...yes, this is not my normal shift, but I was unable to sleep and felt like doing some studying...but here I ended up.

OPS_Zax says:  ::smiles at CMO:: CMO: Just a moment, Sir....

XO_Vraylle says:  ::steps up silently next to the CO, listening to the communication::

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Approaches Ensign Harhn once more:: EO: You have ME, Ensign... Hold things down for me, and don't forget that report.

CMO_Varr says:  <MO Lauren> ::frowns at Ayla:: MO: What is your name and the name of your shift leader?

EO_Harhn says:  CEO: Almost finished the report. Aye sir

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Enters a waiting TL and requests the Bridge::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  COMM:  Avalon:  We would like the use of your station for some well needed R&R.  Do you have room for 750 crew plus guests?  ::smiles at the viewscreen::

FCO_Tim says:  ::wipes the tears of joy off of his face and takes a deep breath as though the end has come and the journey over::

CEO_Wilkens says:  EO: Excellent, Ensign... And by the way--Congratulations on your promotion to Alpha Shift.

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Requests the Bridge, and the doors snap closed::

EO_Harhn says:  CEO: Thank you sir

Host AvalonStation says:  COMM: Pendragon: CO:  You are welcome to our facilities.  Head to docking bay three.  We are sending a communication to Admiral Harlan of your arrival.  She has been very concerned about you.

CEO_Wilkens says:  Computer: Deck 1, Bridge.

MO_Ayla says:  ::she smiles broadly at MO Lauren:: MO Lauren: Oh come on...I know you....seen you in the lounge whipping things up. Stop kidding me. ::laughs nervously::

XO_Vraylle says:  CO: May I see you for a moment when you are finished? ::glances toward the RR::

CMO_Varr says:  <MO Lauren> ::gives Tealk a bit of silence, then comtinues:: CTO: There's more.  She is in a coma right now, and in order to help her come out of it, or even get through it... well, there is a strong chance we will lose one of them.

CSO_Larek says:  ::decides to check on sickbay:: *CMO*: How is Aurora Doctor?

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Steps onto the Bridge, and approaches his station::

CTO_Tealk says:  ::Tealk's grief can be sensed by almost all the vulcans on the ship.. he is not controlling his telepathic abilities very well right now::

CSO_Larek says:  ::senses Tealks grief::

Host AvalonStation says:  Action:  Aurora's readings begin to slip.

XO_Vraylle says:  ::feels Tealk's thoughts, but stays with what must be done::

OPS_Zax says:  ::is ignoring the CMO::

CTO_Tealk says:  ::Tealk looks desperate:: Loose?

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  COMM: Avalon:  Thank you Avalon.  Request final clearance, Pendragon out.

CEO_Wilkens says:  OPS: Status, Lieutenant?

CSO_Larek says:  CEO: Permission to report to sickbay sir.

MO_Ayla says:  ::takes the chance to walk over to a biobed and take a reading...then walks out of the sickbay quickly before anyone notices::

CMO_Varr says:  <MO Lauren> ::eyes narrow:: Ayla: I, do not know you.  *Security* INTRUDER ALERT in Sickbay!

Host AvalonStation says:  COMM: Pendragon:  Clearance granted.  And again, welcome home.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  XO:  Granted Commander.  Go ahead, I'll be right there.

Jolade says:  ::materializes in sickbay, brought by Tealk's telepathic signals, overwhelming throughout the ship, he watches and learns....::

CEO_Wilkens says:  CSO: Absolutely, Lieutenant. OPS: And you too, report to Sickbay ASAP.

XO_Vraylle says:  ::nods, then briskly walks into the RR::

CMO_Varr says:  *CSO*: Aurora?  Has she been hurt?

OPS_Zax says:  CEO: All power rerouted to normal parameters, Sir

CSO_Larek says:  ::heads for sickbay::

CTO_Tealk says:  ::listens to the warnings:: MO : Doctor.. Something's wrong....

MO_Ayla says:  ::runs...finds a JT and hides inside::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  FCO: Initiate docking sequence.  CEO: You have the bridge.  ::heads to the RR::

FCO_Tim says:  CO: Shall I prepare to dock sir?

CMO_Varr says:  OPS: You are coming to sickbay now.

XO_Vraylle says:  ::standing at attention as the CO enters::

CTO_Tealk says:  ~~~~ Auri.... Don't you dare die on me....~~~~

CEO_Wilkens says:  OPS: Excellent, now...::Motions towards the TL::.... Sickbay.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  ::enters RR and heads for Desk::  XO:  What is it Commander?  Something wrong?

OPS_Zax says:  ::nods at CEO:: CEO: Aye, Sir

FCO_Tim says:  ::initiates docking sequence:: CO: Yes sir, I will be glad to do so!

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Eases into the CO's chair::

CSO_Larek says:  *CMO*: I sense grief from Commander Tealk.

OPS_Zax says:  CMO: I'm coming, Sir

XO_Vraylle says:  CO: Sir, we agreed to tell no one about the revival of Project Regnum. However, I must insist on a single exception.

OPS_Zax says:  ::walks to TL::

CSO_Larek says:  ::arrives in sickbay and sees Tealk::

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Watches the Bridge clear of most all Alpha Shift personnel, as their replacements arrive::

FCO_Tim says:  ::turns to CEO and smiles:: CEO: I am docking now sir.

CMO_Varr says:  <MO Lauren> Kiandra: Stop her! ::pointing at Ayla::

B`Lyn says:  ::Watches many people entering and leaving the bridge::

CTO_Tealk says:  ::Tealk raises from his seat and takes his hand to Aurora's temple:: My thought’s to your thought’s... My mind to your mind...

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  ::sits at desk and gives the XO a worried look::  XO:  Number One!?  Who?

OPS_Zax says:  :: Walks into sickbay::

CEO_Wilkens says:  FCO: Excellent, Tim... Steady as she goes. ::Envious of the FCO, just slightly. Smiles, though with more than a hint of sadness::

CMO_Varr says:  ::steps onto the lift with the group heading to sickbay:: *CSO* I am heading there now.

XO_Vraylle says:  CO: The same group that forbid its use. Starfleet Intelligence.

FCO_Tim says:  CEO: We are now currently docked in the Avalon station.

CMO_Varr says:  <Nurse Kiandra> ::grabs for Ayla::

OPS_Zax says:  ::waits for the CMO to arrive::

MO_Ayla says:  ::communicates with her captain and is suddenly transported::

Host Aurora says:  ::sees a light down one end, her spirit guide stands in the middle and a the voice of her Tealk calls to her faintly... she stands still::

CSO_Larek says:  ::silently walks over to the MO whispering:: MO:What is her condition?

CEO_Wilkens says:  FCO: Acknowledged.

CMO_Varr says:  <Nurse Kiandra> ::watches as Ayla vanishes in his grasp::

MO_Ayla says:  ::vanishes into thin air::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  XO:  Commander if we inform them of the drives use... there will be questions to answer.  In the end, you could be up on charges.

CTO_Tealk says:  ::he establishes a mind meld.. his figure appears besides Aurora's:: Auri.... ::he smiles::

OPS_Zax says:  ::stops dead as she sees Tealk and Aurora::

CSO_Larek says:  ::sees Zax enter sickbay::

FCO_Tim says:  ::eases into his chair as he yes again wipes another tear of joy::

EO_Harhn says:  ::Completes the report and places it on the CEO desk::

CEO_Wilkens says:  FCO: I trust you have your own personal affairs to attend to? As such, you may be dismissed.

OPS_Zax says:  ::tears begin to cascade down her face as she watches in silence::

CMO_Varr says:  <MO Lauren> ::frowns as the intruder vanishes, but turns to the inquiries over Aurora::  All: She is stable for now.  Please give her, and us, room.

Host Aurora says:  ::sees Tealk standing beside her... but the need to go the other direction is strong::

EO_Harhn says:  ::Returns to finishing the minor repairs still needing:::

CTO_Tealk says:  ::from the outside, Tealk seems to be experiencing the same effects that aurora is experiencing..::

XO_Vraylle says:  CO: I am aware of that, sir. But I did break a Starfleet directive, and for that I must answer. This will be a battle of beaucracy versus wisdom. If wisdom prevails, perhaps research will be reopened. If not... ::pauses:: ...it has been a pleasure serving under you.

FCO_Tim says:  CEO: Yes sir I am going to contact my father in my quarters. ::stand up::

CTO_Tealk says:  ~~~~Aurora : I don't want to loose you...~~~~

OPS_Zax says:  ::begins to pray silently to her Gods::

CMO_Varr says:  ::walks into the chaos that is his lair moving toward the bed everyone seems crowded around::  MO: Status.

FCO_Tim says:  CEO: May I be dismissed?

CEO_Wilkens says:  FCO: Dismissed. Don't forget your replacement.

CSO_Larek says:  ::looks on in silence::

XO_Vraylle says:  CO: And more importantly, it will minimize the risk to you and Commander Wilkens.

Host Aurora says:  ::looks at Tealk with all her love in her eyes... then down at her spirit guide::

FCO_Tim says:  CEO: Yes sir. ::walks off the bridge and into the TL:: TL: Deck 3!!

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  XO: Commander, I agree, it has been a pleasure serving WITH you as well.  However, there will be no benefit to Starfleet to loose an officer such as yourself.

CTO_Tealk says: ~~~~Aurora : Why didn't you tell me? ~~~~

CSO_Larek says:  ::sees the effects on Tealk:: CMO: Their minds are joined Doctor, if she dies , he also will die.

CMO_Varr says:  <MO Lauren> ::crisply:: She is stable, or was.  Lt. Tealk has apparently linked minds with her to increase her strength.  I don't know how that will effect our efforts.

Host Aurora says:  ::shakes her head::

OPS_Zax says:  ::continues to watch in silence::

FCO_Tim says:  ::enters his quarter and falls on his bed, send a transmission to his father::

XO_Vraylle says:  CO: It is not my wish to be lost. But I have broken against a direct Starfleet directive, and now that the Pendragon and its crew are safely home, I must answer for it.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  XO:  As well, I have a sneaky feeling SFC is secretly continuing the project on their own.

CTO_Tealk says: ~~~~Aurora : We are together.. In everything.. I am here, only because I have established a mind meld.... Where you go... I go.... ~~~~

XO_Vraylle says:  ::raises an eyebrow:: CO: It is the only "honorable" thing to do.

CTO_Tealk says: ~~~~aurora : I do not want to be without you.. ~~~~

CMO_Varr says:  ::nods at both the CSO and Lauren::  All:  Everyone not medical personnel, move away.  Lauren, get me 25ccs of laporazine.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  XO:  You have done this ship a great service, for that you should not be punished.  Let me tell you what I believe Commander.  Rules are made as a guideline for behaviour, not a road map.  We must use them to help us in making a decision, not limit us.

Host Aurora says:  ::frowns at his words, knowing it is not his time.   She shakes her head in sorrow...::

FCO_Tim says:  ::Sees his father on the screen and tells him what happened, his father show him the message, him and his dad cries::

OPS_Zax says:  ::backs up against wall, but remains::

CSO_Larek says:  ::keeps his distance watching over Tealk carefully::

CMO_Varr says:  <MO Lauren> ::hands Varr a hypo::

CTO_Tealk says: ~~~~Aurora : I need you here.. We have a lot of time in our life... Our.. Child.. Please... ~~~~

Host Aurora says:  ~~~~CTO:  Shey needs you...~~~~

Host Aurora says:  ~~~~CTO:  Our Child?~~~~

CMO_Varr says:  ::applies the laporazine to Aurora, watching her vitals for any effect.

CTO_Tealk says: ~~~~Aurora : No.. She needs you.... ~~~~

XO_Vraylle says:  ::drops his shoulders, just a bit:: CO: But if I can convince them to support research in this area...given our success here....

CTO_Tealk says: ~~~~Aurora : We need you.. ~~~~

FCO_Tim says:  ::he also contacts his mother while his dad was on screen, I tell her what happened and we cry again::

CMO_Varr says:  MO Lauren: Hand me the CVT, stat!

CTO_Tealk says: ~~~~Aurora : Please... ::he reaches out his hand:: ~~~~

CSO_Larek says:  ::stands over next to Zax still watching::

CTO_Tealk says: ~~~~Aurora : Don't go... ~~~~

CMO_Varr says:  ::accepts the CVT and affixes it to Aurora's forehead, turning it on and adjusting it::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  ::sighs at the obvious 'logical' conclusions::  XO:  If that is your wish Commander, I will right up a report to SF Intelligence tonight and send encrypted.

FCO_Tim says:  *CO* Sir I need to ask something????

Host Aurora says:  ::looks the other direction then looks at Tealk and takes his hand... her spirit guide vanishes with a wolf's smile::

XO_Vraylle says:  ::nods:: CO: Thank you, sir.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  *FCO*: In a moment Ensign.

CMO_Varr says:  <MO Lauren> ::breathes relief as the vitals begin to stabilize::

CTO_Tealk says:  ::Tealk gently releases his hand from Aurora's temple..::

CTO_Tealk says:  ::and laughs, while the tears roll down his cheek::

OPS_Zax says:  ::watching intently::

XO_Vraylle says:  ::starts to turn and leave, but stops:: CO: Also...I do not wish to see yours or Wilkens' careers damaged. This way, the risk is mine alone.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  XO: Anything else you wish Commander?  ::looking somewhat glum as if he wrote the signature on this officer's Discharge Order::

FCO_Tim says:  *CO* Please contact me when you are done, Stricker out! ::ends transmission with parents and lies down on bed::

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Pauses, while going through ENG's report:: *CO*: Sir, I'd like a word with you when you have the time...

CMO_Varr says:  ::looks at the CTO with a curious expression before continuing to tend to his wife::

XO_Vraylle says:  CO: No, sir. Thank you. ::exits the RR::

CTO_Tealk says:  ::falls to the chair:: All : She will be alright....

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  ::hears yet another COMM wanting a meeting and sighs::

CSO_Larek says:  ::nods::

CTO_Tealk says:  ::he repeats to himself:: She will be alright..

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  ::whispers to himself::  Good luck Commander.

OPS_Zax says:  ::slumps against wall in relief::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  *FCO*: You may come to my Ready Room Ensign.

CMO_Varr says:  CTO: Yes.  She will.  Though I would like to keep her in observation for a couple days.  She has survived well enough, but I want to make sure her baby will be well.

FCO_Tim says:  ::walks out of quarter and into TL, Deck one ready room::

CSO_Larek says:  ::decides he needs to report back to the bridge, starts to exit the sickbay::

FCO_Tim says:  ::taps badge:: CO: Be there in a sec.

XO_Vraylle says:  ::heads for the center chair, wondering how long this sitting will last::

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Nods to the XO:: XO: Sir.

FCO_Tim says:  ::enters Capt. RR::

XO_Vraylle says:  CEO: Commander.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  *CEO*:  You are next on my list Commander, unless this is extremely important.

OPS_Zax says:  ::grimaces in pain, straightens up to follow the CSO::

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Moves out of the seat, and over to the burned-out OPS panel::

CMO_Varr says:  ::looking at the CTO with concern:: CTO: You too could use some rest.  Here, take this bed next to her.  You can get some rest here.

FCO_Tim says:  CO: I need to ask you something?

CEO_Wilkens says:  *CO*: No, sir, nothing that can't wait... Although I do have a fairly large list of crewmembers awaiting your authorization for R and R...

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  FCO:  Please sit.  ::motions to chair::  Can I get you something?

CMO_Varr says:  OPS: And don't think for a moment that I have forgotten you.

OPS_Zax says:  ::frowns::

CTO_Tealk says:  ::wipes some tears from his face:: No.. No.. I will stay right here..:: still holding Aurora's hand::

CSO_Larek says:  ::exits the TL onto the bridge and back to his station::

XO_Vraylle says:  CEO: The ship's status?

FCO_Tim says:  CO: Yes please some Rigel 4 spring water. I need to ask you a favour?

OPS_Zax says:  ::turns around in defeat::

CMO_Varr says:  OPS: Don't worry.  This will be quick and relatively painless.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  ::gets up and heads for replicator::  FCO:  I'm listening Ensign.  ::the drink materializes::

OPS_Zax says:  CMO: Yes, Sir :: walks further into the room::

EO_Harhn says:  ::All repairs complete, Harhn runs final diagnostics::

FCO_Tim says:  CO: My father wants to come and see me. Can he?

CEO_Wilkens says:  XO: Engineering reports that post-damage diagnostics indicate that the most serious of damage is that to the warp core, and other propulsionary systems; as such, they will be our priority...

XO_Vraylle says:  ::nods::

CEO_Wilkens says:  XO: And Engineering could use an experienced hand with the repairs if you...::lets his voice trail off, and grins::...

CMO_Varr says:  ::nearly slipping into a wolfish grin:: MO Lauren: Can you care for her burns please, I have more to discuss with the LT.

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  ::returns to the desk placing the Spring Water in front of the FCO::  FCO:  This is something you should have taken up with the Executive Officer but.. I do not have a problem with him coming onboard for a short period.

OPS_Zax says:  ::relaxes gratefully::

CMO_Varr says:  <MO Lauren> ::nodding:: CMO: Of course sir.  OPS: Here we go Lt.

XO_Vraylle says:  ::sits in the command chair, remembering what Phail said about delegation:: CEO: In that case, you should proceed to engineering at once.

OPS_Zax says:  ::looks at the MO::

CMO_Varr says:  ::moving back to the CTO and wife:: CTO: Sir, I have a bit more to discuss with you.

CTO_Tealk says:  ::slowly, the realization of what is going to happen hits him....::

FCO_Tim says:  CO: His ship the Kingston wants to come and dock here and we would take a little time off but ok I will ask the XO ::sips his water:: Thanks Captain!

XO_Vraylle says:  ::gives the CEO a calm look:: CEO: I feel I have spent too much time in Main Engineering lately.

CEO_Wilkens says:  XO: Er em--aye, sir... That's an affirmative...::Self: No rest for the weary......::

CEO_Wilkens says:  XO: I understand completely, sir... completely.

CTO_Tealk says:  ::raises his head, to look at the CMO, a smile on his lips::

CSO_Larek says:  ::continues to look over data from the Beta Quadrant::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  FCO: No need to ask him now that you have come to me, permission is granted.  If that is all... dismissed.

XO_Vraylle says:  ::turns back to face the viewscreen:: CEO: And commander...do see that you also receive some R&R.

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Enters the TL:: XO: Dismissed?

XO_Vraylle says:  ::nods:: CEO: Dismissed.

CMO_Varr says:  <MO Lauren> ::applies a DNR to the burned areas of Zax' skin, turning them from a bright pink to a more natural color in short time::

CEO_Wilkens says:  XO: Who me...? Never, I'm an engineer, remember? ::Smiles and requests ME::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  *CEO*:  I'm available for you now T.J.

XO_Vraylle says:  ::watches the CEO leave, and stands, looking around::

FCO_Tim says:  CO: That is all. His ship will be here in 17 hours. ::stands up, finished drink and departs the RR::

B`Lyn says:  ::At a lose, enters the TL again to head for her quarters::

OPS_Zax says:  ::sighs in relief:: MO: That's so much better, thank you

XO_Vraylle says:  ::sees the FCO station, where he first worked on his first Starship assignment...and takes a deep breath::

CMO_Varr says:  CTO: Regarding the baby.  The care it looks like it will take to care for this baby in the prenatal, is extensive to say the least.

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Nods:: *CO*: Acknowledged, sir... If it's all the same to you, I'm sure the Captain could use some R&R?

FCO_Tim says:  ::enters the TL:: TL: Deck 3!!!

CTO_Tealk says:  ::his smile drops:: CMO : What do you mean doctor?

XO_Vraylle says:  ::looks at the grime on his hands, and remembers his time as the Artemis' CEO::

OPS_Zax says:  MO: May I return to duty, now?

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Steps into ME:: EO: Excellent report. You and the rest of your shift handled this entire incident admirably...

XO_Vraylle says:  ::looks at the center chair::

FCO_Tim says:  ::enters quarter and class dad to confirm his coming, he said yes and he will be here in 17 hours, confirmed::

XO_Vraylle says:  ::looks at the viewscreen, wondering what will happen tomorrow, after Starfleet Intelligence arrives::

CMO_Varr says:  CTO: It may be best if you seek care off the ship.  Somewhere that can provide a more stable environment.  The baby shouldn’t be at risk as long as consistent care can be given up to the time of birth.  Beyond that, care for your baby will be just as it is with every newborn.

EO_Harhn says:  ::prepares a submission for work crews from Avalon Station::

CO_Vn`dor_Phail says:  *CEO*:  Commander,  did you read me?  I am available for your meeting now.

CEO_Wilkens says:  EO: Rightfully so. I'll see what I can do about getting your request hurried through.

CTO_Tealk says:  CMO : What do you mean.. By.. Elsewhere?

OPS_Zax says:  MO: Thanks..

XO_Vraylle says:  ::grabs a PADD, and starts composing a letter to his wife, to send when the communications traffic has slowed::

EO_Harhn says:  CEO: I will have the request to you within the hour

OPS_Zax says:  ::walks quickly out of sickbay::

CMO_Varr says:  CTO:  A station would be good, but something planetside would be preferable.  Anywhere but a Starship.

FCO_Tim says:  ::lies down on bed and goes to sleep::

CEO_Wilkens says:  ::Remembers what someone else once said:: EO: To quote a former engineer... "I'd expect no less." ::Enters his office and glances longingly at the throbbing form of the warp core::

OPS_Zax says:  ::enters TL::

XO_Vraylle says:  *CTO*: Tealk, is everything....all right?

EO_Harhn says:  ::Grins as CEO walks away::
