CO_Snow says:
@COM *Farge*: Yes we do.

Host CO_Farge says:
@::Leaves warp to Impulse ::

SCIToorain says:
CSO:Is it my readings, or do those give indications of dilithium?

CO_Snow says:
CSO: What is it?

CSO_Ktyla says:
CO: Checking scans now sir.

Host CO_Farge says:
@*SNOW* ::Shock evident in his voice :: Captain , it can't be ...all our dreams ....lost

@*Farge*: We are working to find the problem

SCIToorain says:
<Sickbay>SO:Come down here, i'll have a look at you

SCIToorain says:
::Goes to sickbay::

CSO_Ktyla says:
CO: Sir we're not close enough to get an accurate reading yet.

Host CO_Farge says:
@*Snow* :::Sobs:: thank you Captain

CEOSiwiak says:
*Capt*: Sir, I would hate to see debris boncing off the hull, perhaps we should back away, or activate sheilds.

CO_Snow says:
FCO: Bring us in closer....slowly.

CSO_Ktyla says:
::glad Toorain has left the bridge....gives her the willies::

SCIToorain says:
<Sickbay>SO:I'm going to have to drug you.........you might not wake up for the rest of this mission

SCIToorain says:
DOC:Understood

SCIToorain says:
<Sickbay>::Pricks Toorain in ear with something that knocks him out::

CO_Snow says:
TAC: Shield up.

CEOSiwiak says:
*Capt*: thanks, sir

CSO_Ktyla says:
CO: Sir...I'm picking up strange readings...it looks like a cloud of dilithium...as well as traces of magnesium, hull metal....and heavy silica traces.

Host CO_Farge says:
<Tac> Aye sir ::raises shield::

FCO_Uni says:
CO: Yes sir::brings the ship in slowly::

CEOSiwiak says:
*Capt*: Perhaps we can beam some debris in and scan it for what happened.

CSO_Ktyla says:
::scanning the cloud:: CO: Picking up a cloud of microscopic...objects.

CO_Snow says:
CEO: No I don't think so.

PART OF THE CLOUD DISAPTES TO VARIOUS DIRECTIONS…BUT PART OF IT HEADS FOR THE I.K.S. QIb

CEOSiwiak says:
*Capt*: aye sir

CSO_Ktyla says:
CO: Sir....part of the cloud is heading towards us!!

Host CO_Farge says:

CO_Snow says:
CSO: Any luck on what these things are?

CSO_Ktyla says:
CO: Still scanning...they're difficult to read

CEOSiwiak says:
::wonders what that stuff could do to the hull, shakes at the site of his ship all dirty::

CSO_Ktyla says:
CO: They have the appearance of being nanites of some sort.

CO_Snow says:
OPS: Rerout more power to shields.

CSO_Ktyla says:
::hopes they're friendly nanites::

CEOSiwiak says:
::reroutes power for the Capt, since OPS is off duty::

CO_Snow says:
*CEO* Build Firewall in computer system to protect us.

CEOSiwiak says:
::Builds firewall::

CEOSiwiak says:
::wonders what picard did to get them off the enterprise::

CSO_Ktyla says:
CO: Sir...maybe they're trying to communicate with us.

CEOSiwiak says:
*CO*: Some of the nanites have broken through the sheilds.

CSO_Ktyla says:
CO: I've heard they've been known to do that.

CO_Snow says:
CSO: Do you think you can communicate with them? ::thinking it's unlikely::

CEOSiwiak says:
*CO*: should I manuely cut the feeds to the secondary core, to prevent them from infecting it later?

CEOSiwiak says:
*CO*: The primary computer core can still make up for the loss in power.

CO_Snow says:
*CEO*: Good idea. Carry on.

CSO_Ktyla says:
CO: Well...I can try. If they're  reading our computer data banks they should be familiar with our languages.

CEOSiwiak says:
::runs to secondayr comp core::

CEOSiwiak says:

CO_Snow says:
*CEO*: Report.

Host Nanites says:
::swarms with his Brothers ::

CEOSiwiak says:
*CO*: They apper to be feeding off the new power.

CEOSiwiak says:
*CO*: shall I try to cut all power?

CSO_Ktyla says:
CO: They've left the ship...appear to be heading out toward the rest of the cloud.

CEOSiwiak says:
