CO Von Krieg says:
@::sits in a chair on the Platte and stares at the ensign piloting the runabout::

Host John A says:
ACTION: The Pharaoh limps at best speed back to Outpost 1138

CNS Janan says:
::on the bridge staring at a Padd::

CO Von Krieg says:
@Ensign: Best speed, ensign. Best speed.

CO Von Krieg says:
@::the stars stream by in blurs of white and blue::

XO Starks says:
:: in sickbay laying on a bio bed. begins to open eyes and look around ::

Host John A says:
<Ensign> vK: ::nervously:: Aye sir.

CMO Jayden says:
:: scans the XO :: XO: Sir, you're scans are showing improvement, but I'd like to  keep you here for observation.

CO Von Krieg says:
@::checks the supply manifest for the third time::

XO Starks says:
:: sits up and rubs head with a groan:: CMO: Sorry Doctor I'll have to take a rain check on that. What the ship's status?

CMO Jayden says:
XO: I haven't had any more casualties in the last half hour, sir.

CO Von Krieg says:
@::gets up and moves back to the cargo area. He is wearing a side arm::

XO Starks says:
CMO: plasma storms?

CMO Jayden says:
XO: We've received orders from Command to return to Base, sir.

XO Starks says:
CMO: who's at Conn?

CMO Jayden says:
XO: That is a good question, sir.

CMO Jayden says:
XO: I'm afraid I don't have the answer.

XO Starks says:
:: gets on own two feet and almost staggers with a little disorientation. Then reaches for uniform Jacket :: CMO: I better get to the bridge

CMO Jayden says:
XO: Lieutenant Commander Horn was in command when I left the bridge with you and the CSO, sir.  I imagine she's affecting repairs now.

XO Starks says:
:: looks over at Stidd :: CMO: what's the commander's condition?  ::puts on jacket::

CMO Jayden says:
XO: His injuries are quite serious.  He won't be regaining consciousness for some time, sir.

CNS Janan says:
::reading from her Padd, waiting incase the Ops console bleeps again::

XO Starks says:
:: stares at Stidd for a moment :: CMO: keep me posted on his condition ::leaves sick bay for bridge ::

CMO Jayden says:
XO: Yes, sir.

XO Starks says:
:: enters main bridge :: ALL: Status report

CO Von Krieg says:
@::moves to the crew cabin:: Ensign:: ETA, ensign. Report.

CNS Janan says:
::looks around to the XO, surprised to see him back so soon::

XO Starks says:
:: sits in the hard chair and rubs head again ::

Host John A says:
<ensign> vK: 10 minutes to rendezvous' sir, we're in communications range now...

CNS Janan says:
Self: I can't tell him there are loads of flashing lights...think ::pauses thinking of words::

CO Von Krieg says:
@::calls up the comm channel himself: COMM: Pharaoh: Pharaoh, this is Runabout Platte. Prepare to receive supplies and personnel.

XO Starks says:
:: looking over command console for ship's course and orders ::

Host John A says:
ACTION: 3rd shift officers snap to as the XO enters. Their status reports aren't promising

CNS Janan says:
::steps back happy to let someone take over Ops::

Host John A says:
<3rd Tac> XO: We have a run-about on SRS they are hailing.

XO Starks says:
Tac: on screen

CO Von Krieg says:
@::begins a sensor scan of the Pharaoh, mutters to self:: She's hurt.

Host John A says:
<Tac>:: does as ordered and von Krieg appears and speaks::

XO Starks says:
COM vK: Captain, good to see you sir

CO Von Krieg says:
COM: Starks: ::allows himself a small smile:: XO: I hope you mean that, First. We've brought relief personnel and supplies. Prepare to transfer your most injured.

XO Starks says:
COM VK: Roger that

XO Starks says:
FCO: Bring us along side Platte when in range

CO Von Krieg says:
COM: Starks: First, if we can swing it, Starfleet wants us out in the field, not in dock. I'll present the orders once I board. Platte out.

Host John A says:
ACTION: The run-about slows and turns around the Pharaoh

XO Starks says:
CNS: I'll be in the Transporter room

XO Starks says:
:: leaves bridge ::

CO Von Krieg says:
@::sees the various small streams of plasma and atmosphere leaking from the hull::

XO Starks says:
:: enter transporter room :: TR Chief: energize when ready

Host John A says:
ACTION: A EPS conduit ruptures near the CTO and she is throw across the corridor

Host John A says:
ACTION: vK appears on the pad as med crew rush to take the CTO to sick bay

XO Starks says:
CO: Captain welcome aboard, look like we underestimated the badlands and paid for it

CMO Jayden says:
:: Prepares a table for arriving patients :: *CNS* I could use some help in Sick Bay if you're not too busy, ma'am.

CO Von Krieg says:
::moves forward and hands Starks a padd:: XO: First, our orders are simple. We are to apprehend Byron von Krieg.

XO Starks says:
CO: yes sir ::takes PADD and stands at attention :: 

CNS Janan says:
::makes her way out of the bridge:: *CMO*: On my way.

XO Starks says:
CO: as ranking officer I transfer command of USS Pharaoh to you Captain

XO Starks says:
COM: Computer, transfer command codes to Captain Magnus Von Krieg Stardate 10109.27

XO Starks says:
COM: Authorization Starks 1240

CO Von Krieg says:
::looks at Starks with actual regret in his eyes:: Computer: Reactivate command codes, von Krieg, Magnus. Captain. USS Pharaoh. XO: James,  I do this with regret...really.

CNS Janan says:
::wanders in to sickbay and glances around looking a little bit lost for a second::

XO Starks says:
:: nods at CO ::

CNS Janan says:
::sees the CMO:: CMO: Ma'am, how may I be of assistance?

XO Starks says:
CO: we have work to do and little time to do it sir

CMO Jayden says:
CNS: Do you have any medical training?

CNS Janan says:
CMO: Unfortunately, not much more than basic first aid.

CO Von Krieg says:
XO: First, this is not a typical mission. Star Fleet is uncovering a string of coincidences that indicate a blatant attempt to circumvent the Prime Directive. We are to capture him so that he can be questioned.

XO Starks says:
CO: set course for Gorfax III?

CMO Jayden says:
CNS: Okay, then, if you would help by supervising the moving of the CSO and OPS and the CTO to the runabout to be seen to at the Station, I would be most appreciative.

CO Von Krieg says:
::nods::

CO Von Krieg says:
XO: Is our counselor still on board?

CMO Jayden says:
CNS: The CTO is not ready to be moved yet, though, so we'll move her last.

XO Starks says:
CO: aye sir

CNS Janan says:
::nods:: CMO: Certainly ::steps away then turns back:: Oh, Who is coordinating the transfer on the runabout?

CO Von Krieg says:
XO: I have business with her. I'll join you in the engine room shortly.

XO Starks says:
CO: I'll be there sir

XO Starks says:
:: leaves transporter room for main engineering ::

CO Von Krieg says:
::queries the computer as the to CNS's location::

CO Von Krieg says:
::heads for the sick bay::

XO Starks says:
:: enter Main Engineering :: ALL: okay get those parts form the runabout inventoried and I want all shift called to active duty!

Host John A says:
ACTION: The chaos in engineering quiets for a moment then doubles as the XO gives his orders

CO Von Krieg says:
::enters sick bay and nods to the Dr before approaching the counselor::

XO Starks says:
:: moves to warp core and takes a PADD from a PO ::

CMO Jayden says:
:: nods to a gentleman entering the Sick Bay, and looks to see how many pips this person has, to help establish who he might be ::

CNS Janan says:
::blinks and looks to the CO trying not to appear nervous:: CO: Sir, Good to see you.

XO Starks says:
PO: I want plasma conduits here, here and here ::pointing to PADD diagram:: replaced and these here and here repaired, yesterday ::hands PADD back to PO and moves to ME command console::

CMO Jayden says:
:: overhears the Counselor, and approaches ::  CO: Sir, Doctor Jayden, pleased to meet you, if you need, you may use my office.

CO Von Krieg says:
::is outwardly calm, but he fears the CNS can sense his awkwardness abot approaching her:: CNS: Two items, counselor:: hand her a padd:: Star Fleet has granted you promotion effective immediately.

CMO Jayden says:
:: steps away to give them privacy ::

CNS Janan says:
::blinks looking confused for a moment:: CO: Thank you ::pauses and takes the PADD looks up at him adding:: and?

CMO Jayden says:
:: checks her patients one more time, and approves the CTO for travel ::

CO Von Krieg says:
::hands her a second padd:: CNS: Please evaluate this personal log for me. I have been...troubled. I trust you will keep this confidential.

Host John A says:
ACTION: The wounded disappear from sick bay, a moment later the USS Platte heads to 1138 at maximum warp.

CNS Janan says:
::nods:: CO: Of course ::takes the second Padd::

XO Starks says:
:: continues engine work in a Jeffrey’s tube junction adjusting EPS manifold ::

CO Von Krieg says:
CNS: Counselor ::hesitates:: this is difficult for me but important. Were you able to make contact with Byron von Krieg?

CNS Janan says:
::nods looking slightly puzzled::

CNS Janan says:
CO: We beamed onboard his ship before he diverted his course through the Badlands.

CO Von Krieg says:
CNS: What is your impression of psychology?

CMO Jayden says:
:: makes final notations in the charts of the patients released to Outpost 1138 ::

CNS Janan says:
CO: He is very self assured if that is what you are asking? I am not sure he would be keen to stop anything he is doing when asked by Starfleet. However I did not trust he acted suspiciously and is certainly trying to hide his motives.

CNS Janan says:
::looks to the CO suddenly remembering something:: CO: I have forwarded a report to the CSO, Perhaps a copy of that would tell you all I know and think of him?

CO Von Krieg says:
::frowns. This is not the answer he wanted to hear:: CNS: Let me be blunt. Do we share any aberrant behaviors.

CNS Janan says:
::looks thoughtful thinking carefully about what to say to the CO::

CNS Janan says:
CO: Well I would be happier to trust you. You both have a lot of self confidence but Byron seems to be calculating and appears to have little concern for morals.

XO Starks says:
:: on back underneath the EPS manifold :: Self: what the hell has Irvin done here?

CO Von Krieg says:
::lets a small breath out:: CNS:: Thank you, counselor.  I am...relieved. Thank you. Please return to duty.

XO Starks says:
:: scans Manifold with tricorder to see efficiency up 15%, looks at readings with a slight frown then looks around to make sure no one is around :: Self: how the hell did he do that?....not bad work though

CNS Janan says:
::looks surprised but nods and hastily moves away::

CNS Janan says:
::picking up the third Padd, she looks at the Padds which the CO had handed to her::

CO Von Krieg says:
::turns and exits sick bay in a measured walk::

Host John A says:
ACTION: The warp engines show as ready to re-initialize

XO Starks says:
:: looks at readings :: ALL: good job now keep an eye on the injectors!

XO Starks says:
*CO* Warp core ready for re-initialization

CO Von Krieg says:
*XO*: Bring us on line. I'm on my way to engineering.

XO Starks says:
ALL: Light it up!

XO Starks says:
:: moves to console near the warp core ::

Host John A says:
ACTION: With hesitation, the warp core moves from a cold gray, through the color spectrum to bright blue/white

XO Starks says:
Self: ::whispers:: that a girl

CO Von Krieg says:
::enters as the core surges to life:: ::to self:: Go...go...

XO Starks says:
:: see CO enter :: CO: Captain Warp core stable warp speed ready on your word

CO Von Krieg says:
::smiles as he approaches the core:: XO: Take us forward, First.

CNS Janan says:
::looking at the now almost deserted sickbay, makes her way to the CMO again:: CMO: Is there anything else I can assist with before I go through this information? ::waves the Padds in her hands slightly::

XO Starks says:
ALL: bring warp drive online

XO Starks says:
*FCO* helm set course Gorfax System Maximum warp as it's available

XO Starks says:
CO: I'll be down here till we're up to speed as it were sir

Host John A says:
ACTION: The helm responds and the Pharaoh leaps to warp

CO Von Krieg says:
XO: I'm on the bridge. ::turns and leaves::
