Epsiode:  “The Perfect Ionic Storm“ ptI

--------------------- BEGIN MISSION ---------------------
XO_Cmdr_Thelsh says:
::Sitting comfortably in chair, with legs demurely crossed::
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
::In his office::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::sits at command::
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::chills at SCI 2::
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
::At Sci 1 adjusting the sensor filtering algorithms for the Ionic interference::
Host Little_Pile_of_Goo says:
ACTION: A Level 12 Ionic storm rages ahead of the Quirinus.
XO_Cmdr_Thelsh says:
*COMM*SHIP: Ship to Yellow Alert.  Secure all stations, and prepare for ionic storms.
CE_Lt_Stevens says:
::leaving sickbay and heading to the bridge after checking up on Ensign Everitt::
CE_Lt_Stevens says:
::enters TL:: TL: Bridge.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Helm: Can we skirt the storm?
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
::At TAC, running simulations on targeting scanner to assess Ion interference::
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
::Looks up at the sounding of yellow alert, putting down the PADD with data he was reading::
OPS_Lt_Peron says:
:: moves back to his console ::
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
::scans the area::
CE_Lt_Stevens says:
::exits the TL and enters the bridge:: CO Hello Captain.
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::glances at some of the scans....::
XO_Cmdr_Thelsh says:
CO: Storm looks very nasty... lvl 12, 2 light years across
CE_Lt_Stevens says:
::sits at his station and reviews the results of the diagnostics:;
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::nods at Stevens:: Stevens:  I trust engineering is ready for a rough ride?
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
::Shrugs, picks up the PADD and continues to read::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Thelsh: Recommendations
OPS_Lt_Peron says:
:: sighs to self :: These storms better not mess up the Computer Core. All I want to do is reconfigure all the systems... again.
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::wishes he hadn’t slept through every astrometric class he ever took::
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
::scans for source of storm::
XO_Cmdr_Thelsh says:
CO: It would be a major challenge for our shields to handle that.  I say just skirt it.
CE_Lt_Stevens says:
::smiles and looks back at the Captain:: CO: Always, sir.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Thelsh: Agreed.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Helm: Set course around the storm.
XO_Cmdr_Thelsh says:
<Helm> CO: Aye sir, setting course
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Helm: engage
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Gokaar:  Scans?
XO_Cmdr_Thelsh says:
<Helm>CO: Engaging ::pushes buttons, the ship moves parallel to the storm front::
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
::finished tests on targeting scanner and starts looking through security rotations::
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
CO: Sir, we are filtering out most of the interference - nothing further to report as yet
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
::scans the area::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Nural: Shield status?
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::stands and wanders off the bridge::
XO_Cmdr_Thelsh says:
CO: Why do they have us way out here?  What has ever bothered us from this region?
CE_Lt_Stevens says:
::finishes his diagnostics review and starts to look at the nature of the ion storms and possible effects to the ship's systems::
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
CO: Sir, at this range our shields are hardly effected by the storms, but I wouldn't recommend getting any closer.
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
CO: Sir, Sensors report seven storms within sensor range
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Thelsh:  It is a necessary part of the job.
XO_Cmdr_Thelsh says:
CO: But it is so boring....
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Nural:  Keep them steady.
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
CO: Yes sir.
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
::Continues reading the PADD::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Gokaar: Relay information to helm.  Helm:  Plot course to keep us out of the storm's path.
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::without rhyme or reason, winds up (via turbolift) outside the counselor's door::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Thelsh:  Boredom is a state of mind.
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
::Notes he'll be calling in people for psychological evaluations in a few days/weeks::
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
CO: Aye sir, ::relays sensor data to hem::
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::rings the chime::
OPS_Lt_Peron says:
:: checks his backup levels, in case of an overload ::
XO_Cmdr_Thelsh says:
CO: Well then it is the state of my mind.  Looking at big clouds of electrically charged gases is not my idea of fun.
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
CO: Sir, my readings are showing that all the storms are heading towards the galactic core
CE_Lt_Stevens says:
Computer: Display on my console any possible effects the these ion storms could have on ship's systems.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Gokaar: Isn't that a bit of a coincidence?
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
::rechecks shield status and then checks tactical history of the region::
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
CO: I don't think it is a coincidence - We are searching for a cause now
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::rings the chime on the Counselor’s office again::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Lane:  Maintain course and speed and keep us clear of those storms.
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
::plots the courses of the storms and looks for convergence::
FCO_Lt_Lane says:
CO: Aye sir
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
::finds no Tac history, rechecks shields::
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
::Perks up:: Eh? Come in.
CE_Lt_Stevens says:
CO: Captain, I reviewed the ion storms and there effects on the systems and we should be fine outside the storm, but if we enter them we will be putting a lot of stress on our systems especially propulsion.
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::walks in, hands clasped behind his back::  Have I come at a bad time, then?
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Stevens:  Understood.  Then we shall endeavor to stay clear.
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
::Stands, straightens his tunic:: CIV: No, you haven't. ::Chuckle:: Sorry, was getting a bit caught up in some work. Do you need something?
CE_Lt_Stevens says:
CO: yes, sir.
FCO_Lt_Lane says:
::maintains course and tries to plot alternate ways around the storms just in case::
XO_Cmdr_Thelsh says:
::stands, and walks around the bridge in a bored fashion::
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
CNS:  Well, its about time for psychological evaluations.....thought I would beat the rush
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
:checks local magnetic flux variances::
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
::Surprised for a moment, then nods:: CIV: All right then, then take a seat right over here ... ::Gestures to a comfortable chair that is slightly bent back to make it even more comfortable::
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::takes a seat, getting comfy::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Thelsh:  I find that going though the teachings of logic helps to alleviate boredom caused by an inactive mind.  Perhaps, you should concentrate on something important to you.
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
::Grabs a PADD, and takes a seat near to the CIV::
CE_Lt_Stevens says:
::monitors ship systems and dispatches repair teams to deck 7 to repair problems with the food replicator that is replicating only Klingon food.::
XO_Cmdr_Thelsh says:
::Raises an eyebrow in fine Vulcan fashion:: CO: What an interesting idea.  How about I just go to my office and get some work done?
Host Little_Pile_of_Goo says:
ACTION: The ship rumbles a little..
XO_Cmdr_Thelsh says:
::Looks around at the rumble::
CE_Lt_Stevens says:
::Feels the rumble and looks at ship's sensors to find out what it is.::
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
::Notes the rumbling:: Hrhm. ::Shrugs::
FCO_Lt_Lane says:
::feels the Q shake slightly::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::notices the sound:: Stevens/Peron:  What was the source of that sound?
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
::looks up because of the rumbling and then checks shields::
OPS_Lt_Peron says:
:: holds on to his console, worried that it's going to get worse -- as usual ::
OPS_Lt_Peron says:
CO: Unknown... checking.
FCO_Lt_Lane says:
::tries to hold at warp 5::
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
CO: Shields still holding at maximum.
CE_Lt_Stevens says:
CO: Investigating, sir we entered a mild energetic field that surrounds the ion storms no problems should arise from it.
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
::runs a separate filtering algorithm on the frequency of the "lifesign" readings::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Gokaar: How long before we clear the energetic field?
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
::Chuckles::
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
CIV: Well, might as well start off simple for your Mr. MacTavish, how are you enjoying life here on the Quirinus?
OPS_Lt_Peron says:
:: nods :: CO: I came up with the same readings as Stevens.
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
CO: Sir, we've just entered it. It appears to cover all the storms, to get out we'd have to move away
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
CNS:  It’s been....interesting
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
::Scans the energy field for source and strength::
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
::Nods:: CIV: I'll have to agree with you on that. Getting along well with the crew you've met?
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Helm:  ETA to clear the storm field?
FCO_Lt_Lane says:
::adjust the course slightly to avoid too much turbulence::
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
CNS:  I suppose.
FCO_Lt_Lane says:
CO: Captain, unknown sir.
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
::Notices Ensign Sito was late for her duty shift, makes a note to talk to her::
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
::Nods:: CIV: I'd at first assume you're not comfortable talking about your thoughts regarding the Quirinus and it's crew, but then again, you did show up for psychological evaluations ahead of schedule ...
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
CNS:  Well, it’s hard to say what they are thinking - the white uniform tends to make people uneasy
XO_Cmdr_Thelsh says:
::Receives a PADD from a yeoman, signs off on some routine orders::
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
::checks the interference field strength and frequency::
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
::also adds her for Delta shift inventory of hand phasers::
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
::searches for a way to enhance the deflectors to compensate for the interference::
CE_Lt_Stevens says:
::notices the lifesign on the sensor and sees it disappear::
CE_Lt_Stevens says:
All: What was that?
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
CIV: Ah, your relation to the mysterious ... ::Dramatic pause:: ... Prism. Considering the Quirinus' previous relationship with the group, no doubt some may feel uneasy around you. But I wouldn't worry, I'm sure in time all those with doubts will learn you're not anything to be uneasy about.
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
CNS:  Besides, it’s been so long since I've been in an actual clinical situation, I'm a tad rusty
XO_Cmdr_Thelsh says:
::walks casually over to OPS::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Lane:  Move us out from the storm influence.
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
CO: Sir we are picking up occasional lifesigns, it may be the interference, but then we just read a large one
OPS_Lt_Peron says:
:: looks at his station with a confused look on his face ::
FCO_Lt_Lane says:
CO: Aye Captain, changing course.
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
::Chuckles:: CIV: Don't worry about it, it's something most crews have to through ... and in most cases, this is a lot more better than those physicals ...
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
::sees lifesign register and starts a computer searches for a match::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Gokaar:  Location?
XO_Cmdr_Thelsh says:
::Looks interested at CSO's report:: Self:  Well finally,,, something to do..
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
CNS:  True..........you seem to have the psychological pulse of the crew, and have only begun one new Psych screen, that’s pretty impressive
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
::passes the location data to the CO's console :: CO: generally around there sir
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
CO: very generalized as you can see
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
CO: Sir, I couldn't find a match in the database.
FCO_Lt_Lane says:
::maneuvers the Quirinus to new coordinates to leave the storm's influence::
Host Little_Pile_of_Goo says:
ACTION: As the Quirinus tries to exit the energetic field, they are bounced back into the field by the edge of the field.
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
::Stumbles as the ship jerks::
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
::scans the field edge::
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::has to grab his couch....bloody hell::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Lane: What just happened? ::grabbing onto chair::
XO_Cmdr_Thelsh says:
::Grabs on to OPS::
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
CIV: Well -- ::Grabs his seat as well::
FCO_Lt_Lane says:
CO: Captain, we can not exit the energy field.
OPS_Lt_Peron says:
:: grabs his station ::
CE_Lt_Stevens says:
::grabs onto console tightly::
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
::checks for damage to the shields::
FCO_Lt_Lane says:
::holds on to her console::
XO_Cmdr_Thelsh says:
::moves back to her chair::
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
CNS:  You were saying...
CE_Lt_Stevens says:
::says to self:: What a ride.
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
::Leans back, trying to ignore the constant uneasy moving of the ship:: CIV: What's Glasgow like?
FCO_Lt_Lane says:
CO: Shall I increase power to warp 7 sir?
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Gokaar:  Is there a reason we should meet resistance from an energetic field?
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
CO: Curious sir, sensors are not showing a barrier, just the edge of the field, and then nothing at all
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
CIV: I've never been there myself, so. ::Smile::
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
CO: Shields are still holding, the barrier did no damage.
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
CO: none that I can detect sir - perhaps engineering could check the shield polarity flux?
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
CNS:  A cozy town, for one of the larger cities on the Emerald Isle
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Lane: Try once more.  COMM:  All hands brace for possible impact.
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
CO: It may be a result of an ionic version of magnetic repulsion?
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
::Quirks his eyebrow:: CIV: Emerald Isle? ::Moment of realization:: Oh, Scotland. Sorry, I'm still not all that familiar with terran terms for their homeland.
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
CNS: Aye
FCO_Lt_Lane says:
CO: Aye sir, increasing to warp 7. ::increases speed::
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
::thinks to self:: Oh, great!
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
CIV: I know that you were born there, did you grow up there?
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::grabs on to chair:: Stevens: check for polarity flux.
XO_Cmdr_Thelsh says:
CO: That’s the spirit... punch our way through!  ::Smiles big::
FCO_Lt_Lane says:
CO: Here we go sir.
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
CNS:  Aye, travelling quite a bit between Scotland and Wales
Host Little_Pile_of_Goo says:
ACTION: The Quirinus again bounces off the barrier and back into the energetic field.  Shields drop by 10%, and engines strain.
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
CIV: Your parents moved around quite a lo-- ::Grabs onto his seat once again::
CE_Lt_Stevens says:
CO: Yes, sir.
CE_Lt_Stevens says:
::taps on console and starts to monitor the polarity flux.::
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
CO: Sir, perhaps a slow push through would be effective
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
CO: Sir, shields are at 90%.
XO_Cmdr_Thelsh says:
::Bounces around in her chair::  FCO: Lane, report!
CE_Lt_Stevens says:
CO: Our engines are straining sir.
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
CNS:  They enjoyed travel - we live in Wales during the summer months, Glasgow during my schooling....
FCO_Lt_Lane says:
CO: Sir engines are affected this time! We are still inside the field.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Lane: Perhaps it is reacting to force.  Maybe we can creep through.  Nural:  Transfer auxiliary power to the shields.
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
CO: Transferring now sir.
FCO_Lt_Lane says:
CO: Reduce power sir?
XO_Cmdr_Thelsh says:
CO: Something seems to have us.  Perhaps a probe launched at the boundary?
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
CIV: Sounds great. Do you ever visit the region when you have free time?
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
::transfers power to strengthen the shields::
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
*Eng*: I'm attempting to modulate the shields to match the field variances
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
CNS:  I lived there until getting assigned here
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
::matches the shields to the storm field::
FCO_Lt_Lane says:
::cuts power and moves back to impulse drive::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Thelsh:  Prepare probe and launch.  Lane:  Hold the course steady, reduce speed to warp 2.
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
CIV: Did you? I thought you would have been assigned somewhere else.
CE_Lt_Stevens says:
CSO: acknowledged.
XO_Cmdr_Thelsh says:
TO: Nural, prepare a probe to inspect the field boundary.  Launch when ready
CE_Lt_Stevens says:
CSO: If you need any assistance let me know.
FCO_Lt_Lane says:
::brings the Q to warp 2 and maintains the same course::
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
*Eng*: acknowledged
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::stands and starts looking around the room::  CNS:  You should read up on me a little more carefully....
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
::hesitates for a fraction of a second and then prepares probe.  Thelsh: Launching probe now.
Host Little_Pile_of_Goo says:
ACTION: The Probe stops at the boundary and can go no further.
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
CO and XO:  The probe has stopped at the edge of the barrier.
XO_Cmdr_Thelsh says:
TO: Any data from it?
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Nural:  Readings from the probe?
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
::Looks up a bit surprised:: CIV: I'm sorry, I hope I didn't intrude on any unpleasant memories or the such, I'm only trying to get a feel for the such. I am a bit rusty at this as well.
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
::checks probe telemetry::
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
::Realizes he used such twice in his sentence, tries to steady his mind::
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::picks up an odd text::  CNS:  "The Path to the Soul" - tell me this still isn’t required reading?
XO_Cmdr_Thelsh says:
CO: And since probes don't have shields... it must not be effected by our being shielded.
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
CO: Sir, the reading from the probe does not differ significantly from our sensor data.
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
XO: indeed ma'am - but they do exhibit an energy field of their own
Host Little_Pile_of_Goo says:
ACTION: The Quirinus again bounces off the field as it hits it.
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
::Stands as well:: CIV: Required, yes. Do I read it? No. I just keep it around in case someone comes to check up and see if I did my homework ... which I doubt, and hope, will ever happen -- OOF! ::Grabs onto his chair::
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
::grabs onto the bookshelf::
XO_Cmdr_Thelsh says:
::Hangs on to armrests::
OPS_Lt_Peron says:
:: grabs his console and sighs ::
FCO_Lt_Lane says:
CO: Sorry Captain, I can't seem to get us out of here. ::hangs on to her console::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Lane: Run course parallel to the field while keeping us clear of storm.
XO_Cmdr_Thelsh says:
CO: I say try a phaser burst... see if there is something physical there or not.
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
::bangs hip into console::
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
CNS:  This is fun.........::puts the book back on the shelf with a disdainful look::  At least it isn’t that drivel they pawn off on poor saps on Betazed....
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
::Chuckles:: CIV: Yes, I suppose you're right.
FCO_Lt_Lane says:
CO: Aye sir. ::brings the ship to a parallel course to the field::
Host Little_Pile_of_Goo says:
ACTION: A PADD falls off Raythan's desk, The Grey and the Dead.
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
CO, XO: perhaps we could attempt that with an inert probe
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Gokaar:  The Q however is not inert.
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
CO: Indeed sir - but it can be made to imitate an inert object
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
::Turns and sees that mysterious book appeared again::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Nural:  Reconfigure the probe to emit a resonance wave on the same frequency as the field.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Nural: and then try sending it through.
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
CO: Yes sir.  ::configures probe and activates wave::
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
CNS:  Oh?  A learned man.....what's your reading pleasure then?
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Gokaar:  The ship can, but how do we make her crew inert.
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
CO: the crew may not be an issue - I would suggest an inert probe - if it makes it through - we could repeat the process with a further probe with bio samples
Host Little_Pile_of_Goo says:
ACTION: A Cascade effect emanates from the point of the probe.. destroying it and throwing the Quirinus further into the field... heading towards a Ion Storm.  Thrusters and engines got knocked offline.. shields are barely staying up.
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
CIV: Whenever I get a chance to read, I tend to read Bajoran poetry, stories, etc. I suppose I find the way they base their lives on these "prophets" ... well, fascinating.
CE_Lt_Stevens says:
::starts to reroute emergency power to the shields::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Stevens: emergency power.
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
::Bends down, picks up the "Grey and the Dead" and heads over and places it back on it's shelf:: CIV: How about you?
FCO_Lt_Lane says:
CO: Captain, thrusters and engines have just gone offline.
CE_Lt_Stevens says:
::contacts engineering teams to engineering to work on getting the engines back online::
XO_Cmdr_Thelsh says:
::see the probe explode, feels the shudder from the wave::
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
CO: The probe exploded, shields are at minimal!
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
::Grips onto the shelf as the ship shakes, mumbles:: I know Hannah isn't driving ... I wonder what's up?
FCO_Lt_Lane says:
::tries to get at least thrusters back up::
CE_Lt_Stevens says:
CO: Sir, we still have main power.  I am transferring power to shields, sir.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Stevens: Acknowledged.  Can we reroute to get maneuvering capability?
CE_Lt_Stevens says:
CO: Trying, sir. ::starts to reroute power to maneuvering thrusters::
FCO_Lt_Lane says:
CO: We are drifting towards the Ion storm, e.t.a. 5 minutes.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Nural: Get what you can, in case we enter the storm.
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
CNS:  Ethan Chin's History of the Federation; now that’s a book that will really knock you around
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
CO: I recommend we use power to get propulsion back online, We won't last long in the ion storm.
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
::Gives one of his chuckles:: CIV: I'll have to look that up some time.
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
CO: We can power up shields if it looks like we won't avoid the storm.
FCO_Lt_Lane says:
::still trying to find some kind of maneuvering power::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Nural:  Stevens is working on it now.  Be prepared to transfer all non-essential power to shields just in case.
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
CNS:  Not the lightest book you'll be apt to find, but definitely one of the more eye-opening............
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
CO: Aye sir.
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
CNS:  But Bajoran poets eh.....that tells me something...
FCO_Lt_Lane says:
::wishes she had stayed back on the Starbase right about now::
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
::prepares a local Bio probe to test the effect of the external radiation on the crew::
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
::Quirks eyebrow:: CIV: And what might that be?
CE_Lt_Stevens says:
::finishes transferring power to thrusters:: CO: I have finished with the power transfer are the thrusters functioning?
XO_Cmdr_Thelsh says:
FCO: If we launch all the shuttles, would they be strong enough to tow us away from the storm?
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Lane: Thrusters?
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
::deploys the probe::
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
CNS:  that you're about two steps away from getting your ears pierced
FCO_Lt_Lane says:
::continues to punch her console looking for engines. CO: Thruster still offline sir.
Host Little_Pile_of_Goo says:
ACTION: The Quirinus tumbles end over end towards the storm.
CE_Lt_Stevens says:
FCO: Thrusters are now go.
CNS_LtJg_Raythan says:
::Laughs:: CIV: Not planning on it.
FCO_Lt_Lane says:
CO: Captain, we have thrusters!
XO_Cmdr_Thelsh says:
FCO: Stabilize us!
CIV_Lt_MacTavish says:
CNS:  Good....you don’t seem Fiery enough to pass as a Bajoran
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Lane: Then kindly get us out of here.
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
::sighs in relief::
FCO_Lt_Lane says:
::levels out the ship as best she can::
Host Little_Pile_of_Goo says:
ACTION: The Quirinus plummets into the Storm as the thrusters come online... the shields are battered by the ionic interference
FCO_Lt_Lane says:
CO: Yes sir...
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
COMM: Red alert.
TO_Ltjg_Torok_Nural says:
::transfer any extra power to shields::
CSO_LtCmdr_Gokaar says:
::retrieves the probe and begins analysis::
FCO_Lt_Lane says:
::hangs on::
CE_Lt_Stevens says:
