::Acknowledges:: FCO: Steady as she goes.

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
::absentmindedly walks out of turbolift as doors open, heading over to the seat on the Captain's left and sits down::

FCO says:
CO: Aye, sir

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO: Sensors are clear at the moment Captain.

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Sir all systems operating at 5x, recommend we stand to on yelloe alert

Host CO-Affleck says:
::glances at SOO as she enters the bridge::

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
::crosses her legs and sighs, her mind somewhere out there...::

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Nods to CTO:: Yellow Alert.

CTO_Augustus says:
ALL Hands: Yellow Alert, Tactical to positions::activates Yellow Aloert status::

CTO_Augustus says:
::brings weapons to standby positions::

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO: Captain, reading gravimetric fluctuations and Omicron particles.  Graviton waves are increasing in intensity, but are not constant.

CTO_Augustus says:
::reviews scans::

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
::looks up, almost startled as the yellow lighting begins to kick in::

CEO_Q`tor says:
::Finishes briefings and heads towards bridge::

CTO_Augustus says:
SCO: Anything from the asteroid belt?

Host CO-Affleck says:
CSO: Are we detecting any subspace anomalies yet?

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO: Checking

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Sir,

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
::shakes head and tries to pick up on the conversations going on around her::

CTO_Augustus says:
Self: that can't be

CEO_Q`tor says:
::enters turbolift::TL: Bridge

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO: Nothing as yet from subspace scans.  Increasing the scans depth of penetration.

Host CO-Affleck says:
::truns to CTO:: CTO: What is it Lieutenant?

CTO_Augustus says:
CSO:  Can you sacan the asteroid belt , I thought I detected a smaller ship

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: I thought scans detected a vessel, just a second and it was gone

CEO_Q`tor says:
::Exits TL onto bridge and goes to engineering station::

FCO says:
CO: Uhm , sir ? My maps of this system are seriously off, we are missing things within it ...mostly asteroids

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CTO: Just a sec.  Reading an peculiar subspace anomaly.  Targeting scans.

CEO_Q`tor says:
::boosts power to sensors::

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Nods to FCO:: FCO: Hold your course.

Host CO-Affleck says:
CSO: Can you confirm the FCO's Findings?

CTO_Augustus says:
CSO: Can you slave your scans into TAC 1, I want too look

FCO says:
CO: Permission to drop to Full impulse ?

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
::rises from her seat and walks towards the viewscreen, slightly off from it's center and peers into it::

Host CO-Affleck says:
FCO: Granted.

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CEO: Thanks Q'tor.  Cross checking Astrometrics.  Sensors detect random energy spikes in the anomaly

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
::places a hand down on the edge of the FCO's console, looking down at the readings and finally getting back into the swing of things::

THE VIEWSCREEN SHOWS AND ODD GREENISH GLOW THAT IS PULSATING AND GROWING

CTO_Augustus says:
CSO: Are yu getting some flashes of energy, maybe even radiation of some sort?

Host Jim says:
<AN>

CEO_Q`tor says:
::closely monitors ships systems::

Host CO-Affleck says:
CSO: Full Spectral Scans...

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
Self:  Whoa... ::looks at screen and readings::

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Sir recommend Red Alert, unknown area and unkown sensor scans

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
::turns around and settles back into her chair, taking her first look at the Commande-  er, Captain::

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
CO:  I concur Captain, we don't want to get too close that thing...

CEO_Q`tor says:
CO: Sir, radiation is beginning to affect the warp core

CEO_Q`tor says:
::Boosts power to shields::

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Shakes Head:: CTO: The situation isn't hostile, yet.

CTO_Augustus says:
CSO: Recommend a class 3 probe

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
CO:  Nonetheless... I have a feeling that thing pulled in those missing asteriods.

FCO says:
CO: Helm is non responsive , Captain

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Can not defend ourselves if we dont know whats out there sir

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Diagnostics confirm nothing wrong with our sensor systems

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Nods to FCO:: CEO: Q'Tor, Get on to that, We need the helm.

CEO_Q`tor says:
::begins diagnostics of helm controls trying to find the problem::

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO: Full spectal scan, aye

COMPUTER says:
WARNING! Warp core breech in five minutes

Host CO-Affleck says:
CTO: Red Alert.

Host CO-Affleck says:
CEO: Forget the Helm, sort the core.

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Aye red alert

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
CO:  Perhaps we could emit a field of antigravitons around the hull... repel ourselves from the anomoly?

CTO_Augustus says:
All Hands: Read Alert, Battle Stations this is not a drill, repeat this is not a srill

CTO_Augustus says:
<drill>

CEO_Q`tor says:
*Q'tor to engineering, get the warp core under control I'm on my way*

CEO_Q`tor says:
::leaves the bridge for Main Engineering::

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: sir, I can put the shields on a rotating modulation

Host CO-Affleck says:
CSO: Is there anything that could be affecting out core like this?

FCO says:
CO: We are being sucked in , Captain

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Nods to SOO:: SOO: Do it.

CEO_Q`tor says:
::enters main engineering::

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
::skips over to the engineering station, punching her fingers at the console::  CO:  Graviton generators online...  pumping 'em out now.

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO: Omicrons of this magnatude can affect the warp field inverting it into the core.  Suggest changing our shield harmonics to reflect Omicrons.

Host CO-Affleck says:
*CEO* Q'Tor, Report?

COMPUTER says:
Warp Core breech prevented

CTO_Augustus says:
CO:  We can put a spread of quantum torpedoes out to try and colapse it

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Nods to CTO:: CTO: Modulate Shield Harmonics.

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
CTO:  But how close are we?  Will the blast affect us?

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Sir, I have the shield adjustments available, and set

FCO says:
CO:  We entered the threshold , sir

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO, CTO: I suggest a graviton pulse from the main deflector with oposite spin from the waves.

CTO_Augustus says:
::calculates real quick::

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
CO:  Increasing anti-graviton emissions... I don't think it's working...

CEO_Q`tor says:
*CO*: Sir, the ships warp field seems to be collapsing in on itself, If I can't get this under control we may need to eject the warp core

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Sir might bring the shields down by 17%

Host CO-Affleck says:
*CEO* Can't we just shut the core down?

ACTION  The IKS QIb speeds in towards the core of the anomaly

CEO_Q`tor says:
::Begins making adjustments to warp core::

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Looks at the CTO Puzzled::

CTO_Augustus says:
::Makes adjustments to power allocation for the shields ::

Host CO-Affleck says:
CTO: Why..?

CEO_Q`tor says:
CO: With respect sir, that takes time, this doesn't exactly have an off switch

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
::gets on the comm::  COMM Starfleet:  Starfleet Command... this is the I.K.S. QIb... requesting assistance.  We're sending you data on our current situation.

ACTION   the crew and ship are in for a rough ride

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Proximity blast, but if we are going to try it needs to be quick

CEO_Q`tor says:
::begins emergency warp core shut down::

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
::slides back into her seat while sending the message::

Host CO-Affleck says:
*CEO* What about a hot shutdown. Close the Magnetic Constrictors.

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO:  Sir, have you ever heard of "riding the rim"?

CEO_Q`tor says:
*CO*: Working on it sir

Host CO-Affleck says:
CSO: Yes... Elaborate.

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO: It is possible to navigate beyond the event horizon of a singularity and still make it out again with precise piloting.

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
CO:  We'll need to vent any remaining plasma and anti-deuterium if we close off the constrictors.

ACTION   The Ship and contents feel the first of many untoward vibrations strange screeching noises can be heard as metal separates

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO: using the gravitational pull to sling shot you out.

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO, FCO: Feeding the flight information to your display.

Host CO-Affleck says:
CSO: Get to work on the calculations.

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
CSO:  Now or never...

CTO_Augustus says:
CSO: Can we use the tractor beam to assit us with that if we set it to reverse polarity

CEO_Q`tor says:
*CO*: Sir, I don't think this is going to happen quick enough. I recommend ejecting the warp core

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
CTO:  We'd need something to lock onto to repel us away...

ACTION During the second several mounting brackets around the warp core dislodge

Host CO-Affleck says:
*CEO* Ok Do it. Eject the core.

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CTO:  Negative.  Adding energy may only feed the anomoly.

CTO_Augustus says:
CSO: Roger that

CEO_Q`tor says:
*CO* Aye sir:: Activates core ejection::

CTO_Augustus says:
::works on shielding adjustments::

CSO_Yamamoto says:
FCO: You have the flight path projections...

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
Self:  Starting to miss that desk job...  ::attempts to call up data on the anomoly::

ACTION  The Warp Core stays stubbornly in place

CEO_Q`tor says:
*CO*: Warp core away sir....recommend full impulse to get us as far away from it as possible

CTO_Augustus says:
CSO: What about a shuttle craft?  If we use the shuttle as a base for the push

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
CO:  Captain... I reading that the core is still in place.

Host CO-Affleck says:
FCO: Follow the course the CSO gave you, half impulse.

CEO_Q`tor says:
::Turns to see warp core still in place:: *CO* Belay that sir, ejection systems are malfunctioning

ACTION the IKS QIB comes out into clear space

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
CTO:  I don't think i'd have enough mass, but anything would be worth it...

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO:  Sensors show we have cleared the event horizon.

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
CSO:  Any guesses on a safe distance to stay away from this thing?

Host CO-Affleck says:
CTO: we wouldn't get a large enough impulse from the shutt......... ::interupted by CSO::

CTO_Augustus says:
::tries to bring Starfleet bouys online::

Host CO-Affleck says:
CSO: Full Scans/

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO: Uhm. Sir. We'er not in Kansas anymore.

Host CO-Affleck says:
CSO: I could have told you that, where are we?

CEO_Q`tor says:
::gets damage control teams on the warp core::

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
::attempts to scan for any familar vessels or bases in the area::

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Sir no Starfleet comm on any frequency or bouy signatures.  I have some strange readings in the distance. Maybe some ships.

CEO_Q`tor says:
*CO*: Sir, we can not go to warp. Several Core mountings have been broken

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO: No SF frequencys at all.  Odd ship signatures at 0.127.98

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
CTO:  Is the cloaking device still operational?

Host CO-Affleck says:
*CEO* Can they be repaired or replaced?

CSO_Yamamoto says:
*CEO*:  Make sure you reengage the safeties on the ejection system. ::chuckle::

OPS_Rodz says:
::on the turbolift, on her way to the bridge::

CEO_Q`tor says:
*CO*: We can repair them sir, but it's going to take some time

Host CO-Affleck says:
*CEO* Get on it.

CEO_Q`tor says:
*CO* Aye sir

Host CO-Affleck says:
CSO: Can you identify the vessel at this range?

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO: Nothing in the computer to match them sir.  Attempting a threat scan now.

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Ships are of unkown make and configuration

CTO_Augustus says:
SOO: No warp core no cloak

CEO_Q`tor says:
::grabs an anti grav sled and starts working with DC teams::

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
CSO:  Are they on an intercept course?  Or have they not notice us yet...

Host CO-Affleck says:
CSO: Anything to indicate what happens to us? High Neutrino Levels? Anything?

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
Computer:  Judging from current starmaps of the galaxy, can you derive at estimate on our location?

OPS_Rodz says:
::enters bridge and hurries to her station releaving the officer on duty::

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO:  We have traveled through the event horizon of a wormhole.  Astrometrics is still trying to get a fix on our position.

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO:  I can say this though.  We are not in the Milky Way.

Host CO-Affleck says:
CSO: Is the wormhole still there?

CEO_Q`tor says:
::picks up a laser welder and welds the first mounting braket back into place::

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO: Neutrino levels are at space normal, sir.

CTO_Augustus says:
*CEO*: Lt you need some assistance down there

OPS_Rodz says:
CO:Sir I can ID a beacon of some sort in frequency seldom used.

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO:  It may be there, but only as wide as a proton.

Host CO-Affleck says:
CSO: Scan Subspace for it.

CEO_Q`tor says:
*CTO*: Thank you, but any more bodies will just get in the way

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO:  Aye.

CTO_Augustus says:
*CEO*: Roger that

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: We can take a shuttle out to do some recon work

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO: Found it.  Highly unstable.  Energy pulsing at an irregular rate.

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO:  We'll need a wedge to open it up, too.

Host CO-Affleck says:
CSO: Any way we could stablise it?

OPS_Rodz says:
CO: Sir it is a marker boey!!

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
CO/CTO:  Either that, or see what happens to a probe if we send it through.  We don't know where in the universe it'll pop up...

Host CO-Affleck says:
CTO: Negative, we're not risking getting split up.

CEO_Q`tor says:
To Crewman: Keep that antigrav stabilised

CTO_Augustus says:
CO:  Why give the unkown the opertunnity to find us.  We can not cloak and we have no warp core.  It may be the better tactical decision, Sir

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Nods toSOO:: CTO: Launch a Probe

OPS_Rodz says:
CO: I think they knew about it and are trying to keep other ships away

Host CO-Affleck says:
OPS: Marking what?

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
CSO:  Perhaps we could use the readings of the wormhole as we went in and wait for a moment for them to reoccur here... perhaps it'll take us back home.

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO: Hmm.  Sir.  It may be more stable on this end than previously thought.  Pulses are from debris exiting the event horizon.  Cherenkov radiation spikes.

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: What type of probe sir?

CEO_Q`tor says:
::Assists in holding another mounting bracket in place while it is welded::

Host CO-Affleck says:
CTO: Class IX.

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
::attempts to scan the debris in an attempt to find it's native space::

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Aye sir, location we are sending it?  ::gets probe ready to launch::

OPS_Rodz says:
CO: Maybe, the position of the anamoly

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO, SOO:  I once saw a report about the Bajor wormhole being held open.  I'll try and see what caused it.

Host CO-Affleck says:
CTO: Through the wormhole.

CTO_Augustus says:
::Makes and sets coordinates:: CO: Aye sir probe launched::depresses button::

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
CO/CSO:  Perhaps a veteron beam can be used to reinforce the wormhole... to stablize it a bit.

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
<verteron>

Host CO-Affleck says:
SOO: run some simulations on it..

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
::gives an unofficial salute with two fingers and taps away at her console::

ACTION  As the probe passes though the readings indicate  gravimetric readings of up to 2.5 Gravidities  in spikes as it enters the other side they get readings of Federation space before it dies

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Lost telemetry readings of the probe

Host CO-Affleck says:
CTTO: Did we get anything?

CEO_Q`tor says:
::welds last mounting bracket into place::

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: 2.5 gravidities, thats it

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
CO:  Hmm... looks like a cozy trip back home.  I'm reading nice little chunks of that freighter floating around us.

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO: Probe data indicates 2.5 gravities inside the wormhole.  Also, Federation frequencies detected on the other side.

OPS_Rodz says:
::keeps scanning all the frequencies::

CEO_Q`tor says:
::realigns the dilithium chambers::

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
CSO:  Do you think we could get a message through, using another probe as a quick relay before it stops transmitting?  Maybe get a message back home...?

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO: Sir.  Shouldn't we take this opportunity to research this area.  We ARE the only Federation ship to come here.

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
::turns to Captain after talking to the CSO::  CO:  ...wouldn't hurt to get another ship on the other side to guide us out.

CEO_Q`tor says:
::double checks the matter/antimatter mix::

CSO_Yamamoto says:
SOO: Perhaps.  If it can boost the signal enough to overcome the radiation and gravitation.

Host CO-Affleck says:
If, when we get Warp Power back, we reinforced SIF, IDF and Shields with Warp power, would it be enough to keep us in one piece?

CTO_Augustus says:
::brings a class X probe on line and puts warning message and status records of the Qlb in it:: CO: I have a class X probe with all logs and data with a warning and distress call ready to launch throough the wormhole.

CEO_Q`tor says:
*CO*: Q'tor to bridge. Captain we are ready to re-start warp engines

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
CO:  Recommend sending the probe a short distress message though... and a record of what's happen.

Host CO-Affleck says:
*CEO* Begin powering the core up.

CEO_Q`tor says:
*CO*: Aye sir

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Nods to SOO/CTO:: Launch a hard-shell through the wormhole.

CEO_Q`tor says:
::begins warp core powering sequence::

CTO_Augustus says:
::nods and reconfigures the probe ::CO: Ready for launch sir

CEO_Q`tor says:
::monitors warp power systems closely::

Host CO-Affleck says:
CTO: Do it.

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Aye ::Launches probe;;

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Probe launched

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
::coughs::  CO:  Umm... Captain?

ACTION  The probe goes through but only sends a partial message before it 's destruction

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Sir, request permission to leave the bridge?

Host CO-Affleck says:
SOO: yes?

CEO_Q`tor says:
::warp core begins pulsing rhythmically::

CTO_Augustus says:
::activates call To CPO Jacin::

Host CO-Affleck says:
CTO: For what reason?

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
CO:  Perhaps the CSO is right... maybe we should utilize the time we're spending here to research the area some, while repairs are being made, etc...

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: I need to retrieve something from Tactical Office, sir

CEO_Q`tor says:
*CO*: Captain, we should have warp engines back on line in five minutes

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
CO:  We've got several ships over in that direction, ::points at the screen::  Maybe First Contact wouldn't be a bad idea...

Host CO-Affleck says:
CTO: Granted.

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Sir, First contact in an unknown district, not knowing if we can defend ourselves, I advise against it

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Thak you ::leaves bridge::

Host CO-Affleck says:
SOO/CSO: Make all the scans you can from here, returning to the federation is more important than exploring right now.

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO: Aye, sir.  Recording communication traffic for study.

OPS_Rodz says:
::listens to the COMM but can't understand anything::

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
CO:  Noted, I just think it'd be more wise if we met with these other ships on our own terms, rather then them rushing over here with their weapons ports locked on us.

CTO_Augustus says:
::walks out of Tl and into SB 1:: Computer: Security override on hatches to SB 1, Augustus Delta Delta 8 Fox

Host CO-Affleck says:
SOO: right now, in our state, I'd rather stay out of contact at all.

OPS_Rodz says:
CO:I am listening to some chatter on diferent frequencies but I can't make out their language.

CTO_Augustus says:
<Computer> Complying

CEO_Q`tor says:
*CO*: Q'tor to bridge. Captain, we have warp drive at your discretion

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
::watches as the computer gathers all the data it can on the area::

Host CO-Affleck says:
*CEO* Thankyou Lieutenant.

CTO_Augustus says:
*CEO* : Lt can you override ShB 1's exterior hatch?

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
::mutters to self:  Warp core equals cloaking device which keeps us off some guys sensors...

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO:  Readings from the anomoly are changing sir.  I think it may be collapsing.  Suggest that we leave right now.

CEO_Q`tor says:
*CTO* I can, but for what reason?

Host CO-Affleck says:
Engage the Cloaking Device.

Host Jim says:
ACTION   A Small moon comes into view from the anomoly

CTO_Augustus says:
*CEO*: Need to deploy a beacon

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
All:  Now there's something you don't see everyday...

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO, FCO:  Planetary body emerging from the event horizon.  Heading this way.

CEO_Q`tor says:
*CTO*: I'll get on it

Host CO-Affleck says:
FCO: Evade the planet, back us off to a safe distance.

CTO_Augustus says:
*CEO*: Thak you,  gets stationary beacon ready for deployment.

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
CO:  Well, looks stable enough for a small moon to go through... whats a few million tons of duranium to it?

FCO says:
CO: Aye,sir !!!!

CEO_Q`tor says:
::heads off to ShB 1::

CTO_Augustus says:
*CEO*: Lt if you are coming here to do that I have Security override on doors

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
CSO:  I take it that moon came from our side of space... anyway you could plot the anomoly's course through Gamma Epsilon as it absorbs all these things?  I'd hate to go through as the Sun decides to come to our side...

CTO_Augustus says:
::Makes adjustments to bouy and gets it ready to deploy.::

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
::makes motions with hands of a big sun crashing into the QIb, with added sounds for the blowing up part::

CEO_Q`tor says:
*CTO* : Understood

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO: Well for that to happen I would have to be able to see the other side. Right now I don't even know where WE are.

Host CO-Affleck says:
SOO: Thanks for that demonstration Commander ::Smiles::

CTO_Augustus says:
::Makes ready the tractor beam for use, and starts bringing it up on line::

CEO_Q`tor says:
::Goes back to Engineering terminal and enters exterior hatch override::

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
CSO:  Well, we know where the anomoly was when we went it, now we just have to check the scans for where the moon was, and devise it's course... maybe the moon's planet is next...

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO: Sir, the wormhole is growing larger.  At this rate we won't be able to withstand the gravitational strain if we stay much longer.

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
::smiles back at the Captain::

FCO says:
THE VIEWSCREEN ONCE MORE SHOWS THE DISTANT SUN ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WORMHOLE AS THE FCO BRINGS THE SHIP BACK AROUND

Host CO-Affleck says:
SOO/CSO: Acknowledged.

CTO_Augustus says:
*CEO*:  Sir how long before the hatch isd opened?

CEO_Q`tor says:
*CTO*: It should be opening now

CSO_Yamamoto says:
SOO: No.  Remember we were pulled in.  The moon could have been ripped from orbit too.

CTO_Augustus says:
*CEO*: thak you

Host CO-Affleck says:
*CEO* Bridge to Engineering, I want you to use Warp power to re-enforce SIF, IDF and Shields.

CEO_Q`tor says:
*CO*: Aye sir ::makes adjustments to reinforce SIF, IDF, and shields from the warp core

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
CSO:  Well... well... ::makes motion of sun and QIb colliding again::  You never know...

CSO_Yamamoto says:
SOO:  Well look at it this way, you'd never have to tan again.

Host CO-Affleck says:
*AllHands* All hands this is the captain, take your stations, secure all systems, batton down the hatches and prepare to reenter the workhole.

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
::leans closer to the CSO's station, making big boom motion again::  SOO:  Boom!

Host CO-Affleck says:
SOO: Actually I have a theory on that, if the wormhole exit were at the star then we would be seeing higher concentrations of Solar Gases emerging from the wormhole by now...

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO: Logical assumption.

CEO_Q`tor says:
::activates forcefields to reinforce warp core mountings::

Host CO-Affleck says:
<wormhole>

Host CO-Affleck says:
CSO: thank You.

Host CO-Affleck says:
FCO: Lay in a course home and Engage.

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
CO:  Then again, the gravity of the Sun could be larger then that of the wormhole, so the star could be pulling the wormhole in... yeah...

FCO says:
<FCO> CO: Aye, sir ::straps himself in ::

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO, SOO:  And while we debate this, the wormhole is growing larger and larger.

FCO says:
::engages:::

Host CO-Affleck says:
SOO: You know, as much as I'm enjoying this debate, let's not be too pessimistic.

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
CO:  Times like this I just grab a cup of hot cocco to get me through the day...  ::suddenly stands and walks into the conference room::

Host Jim says:
ACTION  The ride is smoother , but not by much as the ship is shaken and shaken hard by waves of gravity pulses

Host CO-Affleck says:
::holds onto his seat for the bumps::

CSO_Yamamoto says:
All:  Weeeeeeeeeeeee.

OPS_Rodz says:
::holds to the seat::

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
::curses to self as hot cocco spills on conference room floor::

ACTION  The ship emerges and is directed away by the FCO

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Smiles at the CSO::

CEO_Q`tor says:
::knocked off his feet and lands on his "bum"::

OPS_Rodz says:
::Scans for Federation frequencies::

CTO_Augustus says:
::checks telemetry read and fix of bouy::

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO: Sensors show we are clear of the event horizon and in Federation space approx. 1 billion km from our earlier position.

FCO says:
::Shaking in his seat ::

CEO_Q`tor says:
::gets back to his feet, and tries to flex some of his still sore muscles::

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
::drags a seat over to the window and falls into it, fumbling with the empty cocco cup in her hands::

Host CO-Affleck says:
Good. Everyone in three pieces or less?

CTO_Augustus says:
COmputer: End security override on ShB 1

OPS_Rodz says:
::looks up at CSO:: Self: Good to be home!

CTO_Augustus says:
::exits shuttle bay and goes to Tac Office::

CSO_Yamamoto says:
::smiles::  OPS:  Me too.

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
::sighs and sinks further into her seat::

CTO_Augustus says:
::enters his ofice picks up PADD with the connection to Bouy.::

CEO_Q`tor says:
*CO*: Captain, there is some minor to moderate structural damage throughout the ship. It will take damage control teams about 2 days to get all of it repaired

CTO_Augustus says:
::Heads to bridge::

CTO_Augustus says:
::Enters bridge hands PADD to CSO::

Host CO-Affleck says:
FCO: Lay in a course for Starbase, Warp 5.

Host CO-Affleck says:
FCO: engage.

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CTO:  What did you do?

CTO_Augustus says:
CSO: I deployed a bouy, its cloaked and we are reading it 5X< it will be awhile before we get complete data though

FCO says:
CO: Engaging sir ::presses some buttons ::

CTO_Augustus says:
CSO: More like 3 or 4 weeks but we wont be blind if we or Starfleet goes back

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CTO: Cloaked....oh, s...

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CTO: Do you realize what you've done?

Host CO-Affleck says:
Deploy a warning boey in this system warning other ships about the Wormhole.

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CO: Captain.  May the CTO and I have a word with you in private?

SOO_Nevada-Siwiak says:
::watches stars begin to streak into lines::

CTO_Augustus says:
CSO: It is set on a modulating and it moves slowly using gravitational influx to move it. If you dont know what your looking for you wont find it

Host CO-Affleck says:
CSO: In the ready room:: Nods and gets up and walks into the Ready Room::

CSO_Yamamoto says:
CTO:  That's not the point.  It MAY be found and that seriously jeopardizes Federation security.

CSO_Yamamoto says:
::motions for the CTO to go first::

CTO_Augustus says:
::shakes his head and goes that way::

Host CO-Affleck says:
OPS: Commander you have the bridge,.

OPS_Rodz says:
CO: Aye sir

OPS_Rodz says:
::moves to the CO's chair::

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Enters RR and takes a seat, leaning back and the tiny servo's in the chair adjust to his comfort::

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: I deployed a cloaked bouy to receive telemetry and get some recon on that system and the wormhole.

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: The CSO is a little concerned

CSO says:
CO: ::nods:: I am worried about the Prime Directive Implications

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Sir, we need that info,its cloaked and we can retrieve it if possible

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Sighs distastfully:: CTO: Do you realize what you've done in whole?

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: What I did was deploy a bouy in a region that we awere ordered to get info on sir, and I did it in a way that gets us that info with out putting anyone at risk

Host CO-Affleck says:
CTO: Not only have to put us in a difficult position on the Prime Directive...

Host CO-Affleck says:
CTO ... Can I ask why you didn't consult me?

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: I tried to communicate on the bridge, and evrytime I started the SOO over rulled me, and my suggestion, I was ignored.  I took the best option to do my job at the time unfortunately

Host CO-Affleck says:
CTO: You Disregarded the Chain of Command, Lieutenant.

Host CO-Affleck says:
CTO: You of all people should understand the need for the Chain of Command, do you?

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Sir, I also believe that you ignored one of your bridge officers, I do understand the chain of command.  I try to uphold it when possible

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: I also believe that I have to act on my own at times, an dtry to uphold my position, and responsibility to Starfleet this ship and to you

Host CO-Affleck says:
CTO: I'm very glad you answered like that, otherwise I might have had to reconsider my decision to appoint you as Chief Tactical Officer.

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: SIr that would be a disappointment to both of us sir

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Brings something up on his monitor and turns it to the CTO:: Starfleet General Order Number 4. Read it.

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Quoting:: CTO: "An officer shall follow a superior's order at his or her best, unless these would result in a violation of the Prime, 2nd or 3rd General Order."

Host CO-Affleck says:
Though you were not given an order to the contrary of your actions, it doesn't mean you can do as you please here.

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Yes sir, But I thought it has to be interpeted as well.  Captain Joseph, and many others as well would agree to some latitude

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: If they can not find the buoy and its sending telemetry encrypted and is, then if we need to we can a) retrieve it or b) destroy it remotely with the self destruct mech that is installed.  But before we do shouldn't we report it and its where about to Starfleet intelligence and Science divisions first?

Host CO-Affleck says:
CTO: Listen to me. These orders are a foundation of starfleet, they are clear, concise. They Do not contain any ambiguity. They are not open to your gut feelings, do I make myself clear?

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Aye sir, very clear I shalll endeavor to keep that foremost on my mind

Host CO-Affleck says:
You were wrong to deploy a Boey without my Authorization, you WILL not do anything like this again. DO you understand?

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Yes, sir and I shall detonate the destruct mech then as well.

CTO_Augustus says:
::brings up PADD and activates the device::

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: On your command sir?

Host CO-Affleck says:
I WILL have to make an entry into the Ships log about this and I will be noting my disappointment. However, it is my decision to leave this decision to starfleet on the future of this buoy.

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Irrelevant sir we no longer are receiving the telemetry

Host CO-Affleck says:
CTO: It's out of your hands, give me the controls, I will pass it on to starfleet.

CTO_Augustus says:
::hands PADD to CO:: CO: here you are sir

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Takes PADD and stands up:: CTO: Thank you. CTO/CSO: Dismissed.

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Aye ::walks out shaking his head ::
