AN ANAMOLY OPENS RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE SHIP

CTO Raven says:
:: enters TL and travels to deck 15, engineering section ::

::turns attention to viewscreen::

CO Guthrie says:
Self: I've got a bad feeling about this...

THE QIb GOES IN

XO Guthrie says:
Self: Great.....

Civ Friday says:
::jumps at the big thing in his window::

CO Guthrie says:
FCO: Full stop, try to avoid i-!

CO Guthrie says:
FCO: ...

OPS Rodz says:
Self: What the ...

CSO Toorain says:
Self: Oh...boy...

XO Guthrie says:
OPS, CSO: Can it be reopened?

FCO tr’Keir says:
::tries to get any kind of nav reading::

Civ Friday says:
*XO*: Sir, what’s going on?

CTO Raven says:
:: notices a great deal of commotion in engineering ::

OPS Rodz says:
CO: The readings show some odd time signatures

CEO Surenik says:
::stares at the screen in wonder::

CO Guthrie says:
CSO: Scan our position. Determine what happened...

CSO Toorain says:
CO: Sir, we've got strange time signatures here...please no time travel, please...

CSO Toorain says:
::groans::

CSO Toorain says:
CO: Sir, it's stardate 4403.12

TO Williams says:
::starts scanning area where it appeared::

XO Guthrie says:
*Civ* We've just entered a spatial anomaly. Not sure how it's affected us....yet.

OPS Rodz says:
CO: stardate 4403.12

FCO tr’Keir says:
::turns to CSO in disbelief::

CSO Toorain says:
CO: We're in the Belara sector.

XO Guthrie says:

CO Guthrie says:
CSO: ...

CO Guthrie says:
::ponders::

FCO tr’Keir says:
::goes to all stop to get their bearings::

CTO Raven says:
*TO*: Steve, what happened? Everyone down here is going nuts!

XO Guthrie says:
*Civ* Do you have any knowledge of history.... or the Belara sector?

TO Williams says:
*CTO*:I think you should see this for your self

CO Guthrie says:
Self: Narendra III...

Civ Friday says:
*XO*: I know a bit about history...not much about the Belara sector, though

CSO Toorain says:
CO: Sir?

OPS Rodz says:
::checks the data to make sure of the date::

FCO tr’Keir says:

CSO Toorain says:

CSO: This is Narendra III...

CTO Raven says:

CSO: Is that date correct ::a little nervously::

XO Guthrie says:
::whispers:: CO: This is the *last* thing we need right now....

Civ Friday says:
::gets in TL:: TL: Deck One

CSO Toorain says:
CO: My recommendation: Cloak and watch.  We know what happens, the Enterprise C turns up and the Klingons beat the Romulans.

CO Guthrie says:
::nods...::

CSO Toorain says:
TO: I'm afraid so.

CO Guthrie says:
CSO: Not without the loss of the Enterprise-C...

CO Guthrie says:
CSO: And...

CO Guthrie says:
CSO: We did not beat the Romulans...

CTO Raven says:
<Engr> CTO: We've entered a spatial anomaly en route to Avalon station.  We're checking ship systems right now.

Civ Friday says:
::arrives on bridge::

CO Guthrie says:
CSO: We sacrificed a ship to show we were keen to help the Klingons...

CSO Toorain says:
CO: And if we help, we're poisoning the timeline...again.

CO Guthrie says:
::rolls eyes::

CTO Raven says:
:: thinks for a minute :: *TO*:  You will carry on the bridge.  I still have security teams to check with and I need to sweep the halls.

FCO tr’Keir says:
::waits and continues checking nav markers::

XO Guthrie says:
::notices Friday's arrival:: Civ: Take one of the alternate sci stations. Help Mr. Toorain with his scans. ::smiles::

TO Williams says:
CO: Security scans show nothing unexpected

CO Guthrie says:
::nods::

TO Williams says:
CTO: OK

Civ Friday says:
XO: Aye sir ::Moves to Sci2::

CO Guthrie says:
TO: Keep at it. Raven.... Charles. In my ready room.

CSO Toorain says:
::turns back to station:: CO: There are a number of Klingon ships around.

OPS Rodz says:
::keeps scanning the area for any anomalies::

XO Guthrie says:
::arches eyebrow:: CO: Aye, sir. ::stands::

CTO Raven says:
*CO*: On my way.  :: heads for the nearest TL::

CO Guthrie says:
::leaves the bridge:: FCO: You're in command, Lieutenant tr'Keir.

XO Guthrie says:
::walks to RR door and enters::

TO Williams says:
::working at TAC console, continuing to watch immediate area::

FCO tr’Keir says:
CO: Aye sir.

Civ Friday says:
CSO: ::nods:: Hello, Lt.

TO Williams says:
CO: Aye sir

CO Guthrie says:
::enters RR and waits...::

CSO Toorain says:
CIV: Mr Friday.  Good to see you up here.

XO Guthrie says:
::walks in and starts to sit behind desk....::

CEO Surenik says:
::checks over the ships systems to make sure it came through the anomaly unharmed::

CTO Raven says:
:: travels towards deck 1 ::

TO Williams says:
FCO: Detecting cloaked vessels heading our way

Civ Friday says:
CSO: Thank you, sir

XO Guthrie says:
::stops, taking chair in front of desk:: CO: This is an interesting predicament....

CO Guthrie says:
XO: Yes...

FCO tr’Keir says:
*CO*: I've checked Navigational markers, I believe we are in the next system over from where the attack is to take place.

CTO Raven says:
:: arrives on deck 1, enters ready room ::

TO Williams says:
::rechecks readings::

CO Guthrie says:
XO: And I have an unorthodox idea.

CTO Raven says:
CO: I'm here as ordered Captain.

XO Guthrie says:
CO: I'm listening....

CO Guthrie says:
CTO: Have a seat, Lieutenant.

FCO tr’Keir says:
OPS: Have we cloaked yet?

CTO Raven says:
CO:  Very well.  :: seats himself attentively ::

XO Guthrie says:
::nods to Raven::

CSO Toorain says:
CIV: How many vessels are you picking up? ::rubs head::

Civ Friday says:
::scans for vessels::

OPS Rodz says:
FCO : yes sir

CO Guthrie says:
XO/CTO: We have a chance to circumvent a most damaging attack on the Klingon people...

TO Williams says:
FCO: Signatures are Romulan ::looks around nervously::

Civ Friday says:
CSO: Nearly 150, sir.

CTO Raven says:
CO:  How so?  What time is this?

XO Guthrie says:
::blinks::

CO Guthrie says:
CTO: We've gone back in time.

FCO tr’Keir says:
TO: What is their position?

CSO Toorain says:
TO: Of course they are, this is Narendra III.  FCO: We shouldn't do anything. ::worried::

CTO Raven says:
CO: But shouldn't we obey our temporal directive; not to change anything in history?

XO Guthrie says:
CO: Are you suggesting we enter the battle to ensue...?

CO Guthrie says:
XO: We have an oath to protect the lives of our allies and that oath hasn't been modified regardless of our position.

TO Williams says:
FCO: They are about 3L/Y away

OPS Rodz says:
FCO: I agree with CSO , sir

CSO Toorain says:
CIV:O-kay...I hope TPTB decide to stay out of this..  Self :I hope someone has an idea...

FCO tr’Keir says:
CSO: As Starfleet officers we are sworn to protect innocent lives.

XO Guthrie says:
::nods:: CO: True.... but what if we compound the future, making it worse for our allies there somehow?

CO Guthrie says:
XO: The USS Voyager, in their reports, note that they've solved many problems in the Delta Quadrant--Why not us, in the past?

THE CLOAKED VESSELS PASS THE QIb JUST ONE L/Y DISTANT

TO Williams says:
::watches console for any change in their direction::

FCO tr’Keir says:
*CO*: Ships approaching , Romulan signature

CSO Toorain says:
FCO: you have the bridge until the others get out of the RR...I won't argue with you...but I disagree with altering a major event in the universe.

CO Guthrie says:
*FCO*: How soon?

TO Williams says:
FCO: They have passed us, 1L/Y away ::thinks that was a bit close::

FCO tr’Keir says:
*CO*: They are passed us, 1L/Y distance.

CO Guthrie says:
XO/CTO: If we do this as a 3rd party, we can accomplish much.

XO Guthrie says:
::burdened with the CO's decision::

OPS Rodz says:
FCO: it could be dangerous to the timeline, sir

CTO Raven says:
CO: Captain, what do you propose to do?  We lost a ship and we shouldn't change that fact.

XO Guthrie says:
CO: You're in command. The final decision is up to you.

CO Guthrie says:
CTO: I'm not so much concerned with the Enterprise-C as I am with the Klingon colony, Lieutenant...

TO Williams says:
Self: wish someone would tell me this isn't happening

XO Guthrie says:
::nods at Raven:: CTO: I agree....

FCO tr’Keir says:
OPS,CSO: But we could make a difference.

OPS Rodz says:
FCO : that is the problem , sir.

Civ Friday says:
CO: Sir, if the Enterprise C wasn't destroyed, the Enterprise D and E wouldn't have been built as they were. Think of everything we wouldn't be aware of without them.

CTO Raven says:
:: thinks ::

CSO Toorain says:
FCO: that's what I'm worried about.

FCO tr’Keir says:
ALL; I'll stand by whatever the Captain decides.

CTO Raven says:
XO:  If we saved the colonists, they would have a future, and that could be dangerous.  It isn't meant to be that way.

CO Guthrie says:
CTO: Meant to be that way, as decided by zealous Romulans...?

XO Guthrie says:
::nods:: CTO: Good point.

XO Guthrie says:
CO: If we enter this timeline, are we ourselves not being as the 'zealous' Romulans...?

AN EMERGENCY CALL GOES OUT FROM NARENDRA III

CTO Raven says:
CO: It isn't our choice.  It happened and we must not change it.  If the colony wasn't lost, perhaps the Klingons will not think as highly as our sacrifice.

TO Williams says:
::shakes head as the confusion starts to set in around him::

CO Guthrie says:
CTO: The explosion of Praxis forced peace on us, Lieutenant...

CO Guthrie says:
CTO: They will still come, begging for help.

CEO Surenik says:
::wonders what the CO will decide to do::

TO Williams says:
FCO: Emergency transmission coming in from the planet

A RESPONSE IS HEARD THROUGH COMM FROM THE U.S.S. ENTERPRISE_ C

FCO tr’Keir says:
TO: On speakers.

TO Williams says:
FCO: Enterprise C is responding, what do you want us to do

FCO tr’Keir says:
*CO*: Captain distress call coming through from Narendra III.

CO Guthrie says:
::leaves the ready room...::

CTO Raven says:
:: a bit uneasy, stares up towards the captain ::

XO Guthrie says:
::rises, still disturbed::

FCO tr’Keir says:
CO: Enterprise C has responded

CO Guthrie says:
ALL: Cloak us...

CSO Toorain says:
::looks at the captain::

CO Guthrie says:
FCO: Make your way to Narendra III.

Civ Friday says:
::looks to the Captain::

CO Guthrie says:
FCO: Engage.

CO Guthrie says:
::sits in the seat::

XO Guthrie says:

CMO Gordon says:
::in sickbay::

OPS Rodz says:
Self : here we go

XO Guthrie says:
::whispers:: CO: I'm supporting you in this... right or wrong. I hope you don't get *me* fired. ::smiles::

CO Guthrie says:
XO: Hey, it's me.

FCO tr’Keir says:
CO: ETA 2 minutes.

CO Guthrie says:
::smiles grimly::

XO Guthrie says:
::nods:: CO: That's what I'm afraid of. ::grins::

Civ Friday says:
::looks around bridge::

CO Guthrie says:
XO: Maybe, you'd like it better in your chair, your highness. ::whispers::

AS THE QIb ENTERS THE SYSTEM THEY CAN DETECT THE BATTLE RAGING AROUND THE PLANET

XO Guthrie says:
::narrows eyes:: CO: Keep it up.... ::whispers::

CTO Raven says:
TO:  Let's check the weapons systems for readiness.

CO Guthrie says:
::sees the battle raging....::

TO Williams says:
CTO: Roger that

FCO tr’Keir says:
CO: In visual range now Captain.

Civ Friday says:
::scans the battle::

CSO Toorain says:
CO: sir, this is not a good idea..

XO Guthrie says:
::watches viewscreen intently..... hoping they're doing the right thing::

TO Williams says:
::starts system check on weapons and shields::

CO Guthrie says:
CSO: Then perhaps you'd like me to interfere?

THE U.S.S. ENTERPRISE ENTERS FROM ANOTHE PLANE AND ENGAGES SEVERAL ROMMULAN WARBIRDS

CSO Toorain says:
CO: I'd prefer it if you didn't interfere, sir.

CTO Raven says:
:: runs check on auxiliary weapons control ::

Civ Friday says:
Self: poor enterprise

CO Guthrie says:
CSO: Then note our stationary position.

FCO tr’Keir says:
CO: Enterprise has entered the system and is engaging.

XO Guthrie says:
CSO: Mr. Toorain.... you're objection has been noted. I, for one, will support the Captain. ::Self: And suffer the consequences...::

CO Guthrie says:
::growls::

A SHIP IS SEEN TO RISE OFF THE SURFACE AND IS TRYING TO HEAD OUT

CSO Toorain says:
::RAER:: CO: Sir.

Gnar`Keth says:

Gnar`Keth says:
@CTO: Fire disrupters at the pursuing ships!

XO Guthrie says:
::stares at CO:: ::nudges her gently::

FCO tr’Keir says:
CO: A ship has left the surface, several ships are in pursuit.

THE U.S.S. ENTERPRISE MOVES TO COVER BUT WINKS OUT OF EXISTENCE

CO Guthrie says:
TO: If a civilian ship rises, we will protect it. If.

CEO Surenik says:
::prepare repair crews just in case::

CO Guthrie says:

Civ Friday says:
::Scans Enterprise wreckage::

FCO tr’Keir says:
ALL: Did anyone see an explosion, it looked like it just disappeared

CO Guthrie says:
OPS: Respond to the ship's distress signal.

CSO Toorain says:
::looks at board:: FCO: that's exactly what it did.

CSO Toorain says:
FCO: It just vanished.

Gnar`Keth says:
@<CTO> Gnar'Keth: Sir, shields are nearly failing!

OPS Rodz says:
CO aye , sir

THE VAST BODY OF ROMMULAN SHIPS TURNS TO SURFACE BOMBARDMENT

CTO Raven says:
:: arms photon torpedo tubes ::

XO Guthrie says:
::swallows nervously, sitting forward in chair::

FCO tr’Keir says:
CO: a bird of prey is getting pounded.

CSO Toorain says:

CSO Toorain says:
CIV: Neither am I...

TO Williams says:
CTO: All systems are serviceable and ready for use

Civ Friday says:
::blinks in disbelief at panel::

CO Guthrie says:
COMM: BOP: This is the USS Alexandria. Are you in need of aid, Klingon vessel?

MASSIVE EXPLOSIONS OCCUR AS VARIOUS THINGS EXPLODE ON THE SURFACE

CTO Raven says:
TO:  Alright mate.  Looks like we'll need it.  Just like huntin' Tasmanian devils, eh?

TO Williams says:
CTO: The odds would seem against us, don't you think?

FCO tr’Keir says:
ALL: They've started their surface bombardment.

Gnar`Keth says:
@COM: Alexandria: Federation ship! You must help us! We need... message... Qo’noS...

CTO Raven says:
TO:  It seems that way, but our captain will figure out what to do.

XO Guthrie says:
::glances at CO::

CO Guthrie says:
COM: BOP: Of course! What is your message? We will relay the message immediately!

Civ Friday says:
::wonders if the CO will help::

CTO Raven says:
TO:  Sometimes you just gotta roll with it.

TO Williams says:
CTO:Yeah but only difference is that they can shoot back::laughs nervously at his attempt of humour::

CO Guthrie says:
XO: Every little bit helps....

THE ROMULAN SHIPS MERCILESSLY POUND ON THE SHIELDS OF THE BIRD OF PREY

Gnar`Keth says:
@CTO: Get that ship on the viewscreen!

CSO Toorain says:
CO: Sir...the Enterprise vanished into some sort of spatial rift that was only open for a moment...I don't know what happened to it.  At least I think it did...readings are erratic...

XO Guthrie says:
::nods:: ::Self: A message... :: CO: Indeed.

FCO tr’Keir says:
CSO: Could that have been the same thing we went through?

CTO Raven says:
TO:  Yeah, but those littl' things can bite back pretty hard too.

CSO Toorain says:
FCO:I suppose it could have been...

Gnar`Keth says:
@::broken up:: COM: Alexandria: You must... Qo’noS... attack...

XO Guthrie says:

CO Guthrie says:
XO: I'm not forgetting it. Take him aboard....

CMO Gordon says:
::moves out of sickbay:: MO: You have the sb.

XO Guthrie says:
CO: Aye.

FCO tr’Keir says:
::has several evasive maneuvers programmed in on standby::

Gnar`Keth says:
@<CTO> Gnar'Keth: Captain, the viewscreen is not operative... shields are at 24 percent.

CO Guthrie says:
CTO: Fire on the Romulans, an erratic spread.

TO Williams says:
CTO: Sort of like this situation, stick our fingers out and we will be bitten I think

CO Guthrie says:
CTO: Make it difficult for them to determine the approach vector.

Gnar`Keth says:
@::pounds command console::

Gnar`Keth says:
@FCO: Evasive maneuvers! Now!

Civ Friday says:
Self: Oh no...

CSO Toorain says:
CO: No!

CO Guthrie says:
ALL: As far as the Romulans know, this was just a Klingon BOP that had unforeseen weapons.

CO Guthrie says:
XO: We just need the man to make his message to Qo'noS. He will return.

FCO tr’Keir says:
::feels a whole lot of satisfaction in that attack::

XO Guthrie says:
CO: Should he not send the message from his own ship?

A NUMBER OF ROMMULAN WARBIRD OF MORE MODERN VINTAGE BREAK OFF THE ATTACK OF THE COLONY AND HEAD AFTER THE BOP

CO Guthrie says:
