******** Begin Pharaoh Mission ********     
        "How Sharp the Rapiers Point"

CTO Horn says:
@::In stations medical being scanned and poked, and not liking it::

CNS Janan says:
::wanders out of her quarters, with a Padd as usual::

CO von Krieg says:
::in the hard chair, waiting for the ship to dock::

EO Mo’Bri says:
@:: looking out the outposts windows looking for the Defiant class USS Pharaoh::

CO von Krieg says:
FCO: Take us into hard dock. Standard procedures.

Host John A says:
ACTION: The Pharaoh slides up next to the station. Umbilical lines lash out and grab her tight,

CNS Janan says:
::continues slowly getting somewhere::

EO Mo’Bri says:
@:: finally sees the Pharaoh::  Self: Small ship yet very sleek.  I wonder what is wrong with her warp drive?  Well I guess I will find out now won't I.  ::looks lovingly at Squiggy who is sleeping on her shoulder.

CTO Horn says:
::argues with the nurse about being in medical decides to leave medical feeling fine::

Host John A says:
ACTION: the "clunk" of the airlock securing is heard as the ship reads as docked and begins powering down

CO von Krieg says:
::keys in the shipwide comm:: Crew: Secure the vessel. Begin disembarking routines.

CTO Horn says:
::walks down corridor towards the docking area to return to the ship::

XO Starks says:
:: in Main Engineering helping shut down Warp core ::

CO von Krieg says:
::locks down command functions from the bridge:: *XO*: First, are we near combat status?

XO Starks says:
*CO* aye sir we'll be combat ready by the time  we reach the Gorfax system

EO Mo’Bri says:
@::nudges Squiggy to wake up::  Squiggy come on you silly bird wake up we are going on board our new home.

CO von Krieg says:
*XO* Understood. I know my engines are in the best hands the fleet can offer. von Krieg out.

XO Starks says:
:: smiles inwardly at the CO remark then returns to duties at hand ::

CTO Horn says:
::Walks towards the window and sees the ship docked, and in a rush bumps into a person with a bird on their shoulder::

CTO Horn says:
EO: Excuse me.

EO Mo’Bri says:
::raises eyebrow::

EO Mo’Bri says:
CTO: Excuse me sir.

CNS Janan says:
::walks onto the bridge looking lost::

CO von Krieg says:
*XO*: One thing, First, and it's not a complaint. Did something happen to the command chair? It feels...different.

EO Mo’Bri says:
CTO: I did not  mean to bump into you sir.  Did my bird startle you?

XO Starks says:
*CO* sir?...... I don't think so.

CTO Horn says:
EO: Not at all, just in a rush to get back to my ship.

EO Mo’Bri says:
::looks puzzled::  CTO: Sir you serve on the Pharoah??

XO Starks says:
:: climbs ladder out of the pitt to deck one ::

CO von Krieg says:
*XO* It seems...softer somehow. No matter. Grab a few moments of shore leave. OUt.

CTO Horn says:
::hits a couple of buttons and the hatch opens allowing access to the ship::

CNS Janan says:
::stands at the back of the bridge thinking::

XO Starks says:
:: climbing :: *CO* Roger that Captain

EO Mo’Bri says:
::watches the CTO disappear::

CO von Krieg says:
::leaves the bridge for the nearest airlock::

CTO Horn says:
::boards the ship and heads straight to the bridge::

CNS Janan says:
::wanders around looking for something::

XO Starks says:
:: gathers some belongings in a duffel bag in quarters and heads for the forward airlock ::

CNS Janan says:
Self: not here ::rethinks and leaves the bridge::

EO Mo’Bri says:
Self:  Well I guess I will go down the passenger walkway.  Come on Squiggy! ::Squiggy flys happily behind her::

XO Starks says:
:: sees CTO in corridor :: CTO: Alex! how are you doing?

CTO Horn says:
XO: Better thanks ::rubs her head::

Host John A says:
ACTION: A message comes in Station OPS

XO Starks says:
CTO: good to hear. we'll be here only long enough to re supply then it's off to the Gorfax system

CTO Horn says:
XO: What is the status of the ship. Seems I have been out of the loop for a little bit

CO von Krieg says:
::sees Starks and Horn and moves down another corridor::

XO Starks says:
CTO: the plasma storm hit us hard but we'll be back to 100% before we leave dock

Host John A says:
<OPS> *CO* Captain? Are you pulling power from our EPS?

CTO Horn says:
::notices the bags the XO is carrying:: XO: Where are you headed to?

EO Mo’Bri says:
::looks around for a moment to adjust to the small ship and wondering where she is to go::

CO von Krieg says:
*OPS*: That should be a negative. ::stops at a ship's access panel:: Let me confirm.

XO Starks says:
CTO: I haven't been station side in weeks I was going to drop off some laundry and pick up some personnel effects before we ship back out

CNS Janan says:
::standing outside the bridge looking confused::

CO von Krieg says:
::calls up the plasma relay grid::

EO Mo’Bri says:
::taps her combadge::  *CO*: Ensign J'Loni Shrilak Mo'Bri reporting sir.  Permission to come aboard?

XO Starks says:
CTO: In fact I better hurry, I expect the tactical systems ready before we leave

CTO Horn says:
XO: Guess I will met you on the bridge. The weapons will be 100% here shortly

XO Starks says:
:: grins at CTO and walks again to the airlock ::

CO von Krieg says:
*OPS*: Station, I read no flow from the station to the ship. Recalibrate your sensors.

CTO Horn says:
::heads towards the bridge. Her mind racing on about the the Tac systems::

XO Starks says:
:: before reaching airlock see a new face looking lost with a ......bird? ::

CNS Janan says:
::starts slowly retracing her steps::

CO von Krieg says:
*EO* ::almost distractedly:: Granted ensign. Your quarters should be assigned to you. Stow your gear. We ship out in 1 station hour.

XO Starks says:
EO: Ensign...are you lost?

EO Mo’Bri says:
*CO*: Thank you sir.

Host Station OPS says:
*CO* We still read a heavy draw, trying to pin point now

EO Mo’Bri says:
::runs right into the XO::

EO Mo’Bri says:
XO: Excuse me sir.  I hope I didn't startle you sir.

EO Mo’Bri says:
XO: Could you tell me where are my quarters are?

XO Starks says:
EO: not at all....and you are?

EO Mo’Bri says:
XO: I am your new engineering officer, Ens J'Loni Mo'Bri

CO von Krieg says:
*EO* Ensign, report to engineering. Station operations reports that Pharaoh is drawing power from the station. I want you to verify the readings from our side.

EO Mo’Bri says:
::gulps and thinks I am dead::

EO Mo’Bri says:
*CO*: Yes sir

CTO Horn says:
::Enters bridge and heads to her station and begins diagnostics and such::

XO Starks says:
EO: welcome aboard Ens. Mo'Bri. I'm Cmdr. Starks your XO. you'll find your quarters on deck 1 section B. report to me when your settled in

EO Mo’Bri says:
XO: Yes sir.

EO Mo’Bri says:
XO: And thank you sir.]

CO von Krieg says:
::turns on his heel and moves toward the bridge::

XO Starks says:
:: nods at EO and then continues off the Pharaoh ::

EO Mo’Bri says:
::rushes to her quarters and tosses her things in and puts Squiggy on his perch::  Squiggy you can't come with me just yet.  You must stay here.

CNS Janan says:
::returns to check her quarters::

Host Station OPS says:
ACTION: Marking lights on the station dim, as the power drain apparently continues

EO Mo’Bri says:
::rushes out of her quarters and trips over her foot::  Augusfratt!!!

CTO Horn says:
*ENG*: I am noting a power drain.

XO Starks says:
:: walking down station promenade thinking to self :: SELF: a bird? and I'm not even going to TRY to guess what race she is. I'll have to look up her profile 

Host Station OPS says:
*CO* We can't find the drain sir, but our main grid is down by 20 %

EO Mo’Bri says:
::reaching engineering:: Self: Holy cow.

CO von Krieg says:
::heads into the bridge moves to the Engineering station:: Computer: Begin diagnostic of Pharaoh EPS system. Narrow search to plasma flows beyond specified tolerances.

CNS Janan says:
::smiles as she finds what she is looking for and heads back towards the bridge::

CO von Krieg says:
::looks over at Horn::

XO Starks says:
:: enters station quarters and throw bag onto sofa ::

XO Starks says:
@ Computer: lights

CTO Horn says:
<ENG> *CTO*: We are working on the problem now Ma'am

XO Starks says:
@ :: the lights barley come on the turn off immediately ::

XO Starks says:
@ :: looks at ceiling :: Self: what the..?

Host Station OPS says:
ACTION: From station OPS a faint glow begins to be seen around the Pharaoh

CTO Horn says:
::Unable to complete diagnostics due to power drain, begins to check other systems::

EO Mo’Bri says:
Self:  Looks like a blockage in the EPS conduit or a problem with the command pathways of the ODN.

CTO Horn says:
::Sees something:: CO: There is a problem with the SIF.

XO Starks says:
@ :: tries to check messages but the computer doesn't have enough power to boot up ::

CNS Janan says:
::arrives on the bridge, noting the CTO and CO::

CO von Krieg says:
CTO: Evacuate all non-essential personnel, please.

EO Mo’Bri says:
CTO: Are you reading a drain in the Structural Integrity Fields?? Sir.

XO Starks says:
@ Self: doesn't look like to Comm in here is going to work either. I better get back to the ship

XO Starks says:
@ ::leaves quarters for docking ring::

CTO Horn says:
::Continues scan on the SIF to help resolve problem::

EO Mo’Bri says:
Self: Razzlefrat!!!

CNS Janan says:
::looks to the CO then CTO questioningly:: Self: What did I miss?

CTO Horn says:
CO: The field seems to be over energized

XO Starks says:
:: see crew being evacuated from Pharaoh, then pushes by a few to get on board ::

EO Mo’Bri says:
CTO: Did you check to see if the EPS manifolds were locked open or closed?

CO von Krieg says:
CTO: Try to shunt the excess energy through the deflector grid.

Host Station OPS says:
*Pharaoh* What's going on over there!? You are definitely pulling power from us

EO Mo’Bri says:
::tries to clear her mind to sense for anything out of the ordinary::

CTO Horn says:
CO: Yes sir. Attempting now ::pushes a couple of buttons trying to re-route the power

XO Starks says:
:: enters bridge :: CO: Captain what's going on? The station has a major power drain and are we having an evacuation drill?

EO Mo’Bri says:
Self:  What the devil is pulling all that power from the station???

CO von Krieg says:
*XO*: Apparently, Pharaoh’s SIF is draining station power. What is the situation from outside?

CTO Horn says:
CO: We could try a complete ship wide shut down

CNS Janan says:
::listens to the conversation::

CO von Krieg says:
::nods:: CTO: Be ready for that.

XO Starks says:
:: moves to SCI station on bridge and scan station :: CO: well, I couldn't even get the lights on in my quarters but vital systems seem to be unaffected as of yet

Host Station OPS says:
ACTION: The Pharaohs hull temperature continues to rise for no reason, While internal plasma systems remain normal

CO von Krieg says:
Computer: Are the magnetic docking clamps between Pharaoh and the station functioning properly?

Host Station OPS says:
ACTION: Scans of the station, show nothing but the power drain as abnormal

EO Mo’Bri says:
*CTO*: Sir did the polarity of the shield grids be depolarized??

CTO Horn says:
CO: Hull temperature rising.

Host Station OPS says:
@::scans the pharaoh for residual Plasmatic readings::

CTO Horn says:
*EO*: Not sure, I know we were hit by plasma strands while in the Badlands

CO von Krieg says:
CTO: Prepare to move us off dock. FCO...

CTO Horn says:
CO: Aye sir

EO Mo’Bri says:
*CTO*: Sir try to reconfigure the grid with a negative charge and see if the temperature begins to decrease.

CTO Horn says:
*EO*: Okay

CTO Horn says:
CO: recommend red alert

Host Station OPS says:
ACTION: The docking clamps refuse to release the Pharaoh

XO Starks says:
CO: I can find nothing abnormal station side to explain this.. it's got to be on us

CTO Horn says:
::Taps buttons to try to reconfigure the grid::

CO von Krieg says:
CTO: Red Alert.

EO Mo’Bri says:
*CTO*:  Plasma storms have a bad habit of doing that and they really play a havoc with the sensors.

CTO Horn says:
::Unable to do it from her panel, moves to the Ops station and do it from there::

CTO Horn says:
::Reaches the ops panel and initiates red alert:: ALL: ALL HANDS RED ALERT

Host Station OPS says: (Alert.wav)

Host Station OPS says:
*Pharaoh* Captain, we're reading a latent plasma charge in your hull! It's causing a dead short with our EPS

EO Mo’Bri says:
::jumps clean out of her skin::

CTO Horn says:
::begins to re-configure the grid again::

EO Mo’Bri says:
Self:  Get a grip girl.

CO von Krieg says:
*STN OPS*: Fire the release charges on the docking clamps.

Host Station OPS says:
*Pharaoh* We've been welded together! you'll have to dissipate that energy!

CNS Janan says:
::makes her way to the CTO at Ops:: CTO: May I help you with anything?

CO von Krieg says:
*EO*: Ensign, can you re-polarize the hull to dissipate a plasma charge?

CTO Horn says:
CNS: Yes, thank you. Just keep an eye on this panel and tell me if the indicators change at all

XO Starks says:
CO: can we channel the energy out of the main deflector and disperse it into space?

EO Mo’Bri says:
*CO*: I was just going to try that sir.

CNS Janan says:
::nods, then glances down at the panel:: Self: ah yes here again

CTO Horn says:
XO: Deflector is offline while docked

XO Starks says:
Self: damn

CTO Horn says:
::Having no luck in trying to re-configure, moves over to helm and prepare for break way::

CO von Krieg says:
*EO* Achieve this promptly, Ensign.

XO Starks says:
:: moves to OPS station ::

CTO Horn says:
::while preparing the ship notices the docking clamps are fused::

EO Mo’Bri says:
*CO*: Sir you can bleed off the excess radiation through the nacelles by opening the bussard collectors and discharging it that way.

CO von Krieg says:
*EO*: Do it, Ensign.

EO Mo’Bri says:
*CO*: Yes Sir.

CTO Horn says:
CO: Docking clamps are welded to the ship. If we pull away, we will pull part of the ship and station off

EO Mo’Bri says:
::runs to the propulsion board and punches in the commands::

CO von Krieg says:
CTO: Steady, Commander. Let's give engineering time to enact a solution.

EO Mo’Bri says:
Computer: Open the Bussard collectors and discharge the excess plasma through the collectors now.

EO Mo’Bri says:
<Computer>:  Executing.

EO Mo’Bri says:
::looks at the temperature indicators to see if it is working::

EO Mo’Bri says:
*CO*: Sir I am happy to report that the plasma is bleeding correctly.  The temperature is dropping.

Host Station OPS says:
`*Pharaoh* That's it! we're showing positive power flow now, Well done Pharaoh. Now, can you get us unstuck?

CO von Krieg says:
CTO: Stand down from red alert.

EO Mo’Bri says:
*CO*:  It should take about an hour or so before it is completely done and then we can unstick our selves from the outpost.

CTO Horn says:
CO: We could plant small charges on the docking clamps and blow them off manually

XO Starks says:
:: lets out a sigh of relief ::

CO von Krieg says:
CTO: Agreed. You are in command of that assignment.

CNS Janan says:
::smiles inwardly::

EO Mo’Bri says:
*CTO*: Sir I wouldn't do that until enough of the plasma is dissipated around the outpost.

CTO Horn says:
CO: Aye sir.

CTO Horn says:
*EO*: Trust me, I wouldn't do it until it was safe

EO Mo’Bri says:
*CTO*:  Understood sir.

CO von Krieg says:
*EO*: Yes, Ensign. We realize that. Creative thinking.

CO von Krieg says:
*EO* Your solution was well done.

EO Mo’Bri says:
Self:  I get a new assignment and I save the ship.  My father would be proud of his daughter.

EO Mo’Bri says:
*CO*:  Thank you sir.

CO von Krieg says:
::looks over at Starks::

XO Starks says:
:: walks to Captain's side :: CO: looks like the new EO has passed her first day rather well

CTO Horn says:
::Once the ship is out of the danger zone, puts helm on standby again and heads back to her post at TAC::

EO Mo’Bri says:
::senses the relief among the crew especially the XO and the CO::

CO von Krieg says:
::does the uncharacteristic and claps Starks on the shoulder:: XO: She has some large shoes to fill. We can expect nothing less.

XO Starks says:
:: grins at CO ::

CNS Janan says:
::smiles and turns away from the console, making a mental note that they have another new crew member::

CTO Horn says:
::notices the exchange between the XO and CO:: Self: I never got a slap on the back

Host Station OPS says:
