USS SHARIKAHR NCC-81204 – 
Stardate 10601.19

New upgrades, a talking Computer, and a new Runabout are just a few new toys the Sharikahr Crew was given in preparation for an assault with the Borg. While the crew spent seven days aboard Starbase 8, enjoying a wonderful Shore Leave, these magnificent upgrades were made!

Last mission, the crew of the valiant Sharikahr learned whatever they could about the new enhancements made to their beloved ship. They did not have much time, an hour at most, to learn as much as they could about these new systems before they were to reach Vulcan and speak with Sub-Commander Selk.

We now rejoin the crew of the Sharikahr now fifteen minutes away from Vulcan. Will they succeed in stopping the Borg threat? Will they live to see their loved ones again?

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::quietly at her station, LRS on a broad range::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::has his eyes on the constantly running sensor sweeps, tying into the LRS display as well::

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
::sitting in her chair on the bridge, having just received the CO's orders::

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
::sitting in the Captain's Chair, monitoring vital ship's systems::

Host Computer says:
CSO: Lieutenant So'tosh, do you believe the crew fears me?

FCO_Ens_Ringwald says:
::makes a minor course correction, before looking over her shoulder:: XO: 15 minutes to our destination, Lieutenant.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::swiftly goes through all the data coming her way, one part of her very worried about her family on Vulcan::

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
::sitting in the XO’s chair on the bridge::

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
FCO: Excellent.

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
::rises from her chair and goes to the XO:: Permission to walk the ship, Lieutenant?

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::finishes programming a few defensive procedures, just in case, then goes back to monitoring the sensors::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::can feel her frustration increasing but allows none of it to show::  XO: Lieutenant, there is something interfering with sensors.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
CNS: Go ahead.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
CSO: Something as in we don't know what it is?

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
XO: I should have Vulcan on sensors now. I have nothing.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::double checks his tie-in with the LRS just to make sure::

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
CSO: Don't tell me an entire planet has disappeared...

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
::raises an eyebrow:: FCO: Are we at the correct coordinates?

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
::looks down at her console and checks the coordinates as well::

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
::nods, smiles, and walks to the CTO:: CTO: Could you please, let the main tactical area know I may be stopping by?

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
XO: No... I would know that.

FCO_Ens_Ringwald says:
::blinks, once:: CEO: Well, not yet... but... ::trails off a minute:: I did say we were 15 minutes out... ::really isn't sure the kind of range these sensors have::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
XO: I also have a report from Starfleet.  They had spoken to them about 20 minutes ago.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::nods:: CNS: They'll know before you get there.

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
CTO: Thank you ::smiles and turns to the TL::

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
CSO: You have permission to boost power to the sensors. That could possibly help. 

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::sends the word to the security office, and goes back to watching his sensors, running a database search to attempt an identification of the interference::

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
::steps into the TL:: TL: Main Engineering, Deck 7

ACTION: The Bridge is illuminated in a ray of bright green light. The Sharikahr begins to rock violently, causing consoles to spark throughout the ship and the warp core failing, bring the ship to a violent stop.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::reaches over and increases power intake to sensors, modulating the sensors::

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
ALL: Report!

ACTION: The XO is thrown from the CO's chair onto the floor hard.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::raises an eyebrow, and runs an emergency scan of ships' systems::

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
::gets tossed::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::grabs her console, her eyes narrowing as she modulates sensors again, looking at the SRS at the moment::

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
::grabs his seat and steadies himself:: XO: Are you okay, ma'am?

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
::grabs the rail and remains near her console::

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
::gets out of his seat to help the XO::

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
::thrown around the the TL as it shudders to an emergency stop::

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
::curses as she painfully tries to sit up from the floor::

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
::pulls herself back into the chair and her hands glide over the console::

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
All: Report! What was that?

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
XO: Lieutenant Solaa, hi-powered tachyon burst.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
Self: I'm definitely requesting seat... belts...

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
CSO: Source?

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
::gets up and checks herself over::

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
CSO: WHAT? From who? Cloaked Romulans?

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
CEO:  Unknown at the moment.  However, it has been modified.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
XO:  Checking.

ACTION: A Vulcan Vessel decloaks in front of the Sharikahr however it does not look like the average ship, Borg technology can be detected throughout it.

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
*XO* Lieutenant, I appear to be stuck in the Turbolift.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
::shakes herself off and sits back in the chair::

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
CO: Sir I am trying to reroute power for all emergency systems.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
CEO:  I am picking up a Vulcan ship.

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
CEO: Sir what can you do to help with power allocation.  I need emergency systems running.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
*CNS*: Try the emergency escape hatch.

Host Computer says:
XO: Lieutenant, I believe we should charge weapons.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
CEO: Confirmed. But... ::runs a quick scan:: no we're not.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
Computer: That is not for you to decide, Computer. That is my tactical officer’s job to make suggestions.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::her hands clench for a moment before she relaxes, it is not one of her families::  CEO:  The ship has been modified with Borg technology.

Host Computer says:
XO: As you wish.

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
XO: Are you okay? ::raises an eyebrow at the XO and speaks in a low tone:: XO: Are you thinking what I'm thinking?

ACTION: The Vulcan vessel just sits there. It does not have weapons charged nor does it seem to be at Red Alert.

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
::looks up and spots it:: *XO*: Should I try to get back to bridge or do you need me somewhere else?

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
::shakes head::  Self: This is not good at all.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::continues scans of the vessel::

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
*CNS*: Your choice, just keep out of the way of things that explode.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
CEO/XO: I show no active weapons systems as yet, lieutenants.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
CTO: Any registration?

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
*XO*: All right, ma'am.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
XO: I am reading 33 life signs. No weapons charged. It appears to be at stand down.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::runs a quick database check... Starfleet, Federation, and specifically Vulcan databases in that order::

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
CSO: Hail them.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
CEO:  I cannot determine if that burst came from the Vulcan vessel or not.

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
::grunts as she climbs the side of the TL, heading for the escape hatch::

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
CSO: Keep trying to locate the source, Lieutenant, let me know if you find anything.

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
XO: Sir, for the moment my power allocation systems are holding.  However, sir, I am not sensing anything from the ship and I should be able to.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::nods and reaching over, hails the Vulcan vessel::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
XO: I have an ID, Lieutenant. She shows as a vessel previously believed to be MIA. Registry paints her as the science vessel Rel'Be.

ACTION: As the CNS climbs she loses her grip and nearly falls.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
CTO: Really...? That is interesting.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::getting no response, tries a different frequency::

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
CTO: Anything you can tell me about the Rel'Be?

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
::slams against the side of the TL:: Self: I'd better be careful.::gets her grip back and continues climbing::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
XO: I am not receiving any response on any known frequencies.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::runs a detailed scan of the ship, then runs the name through databases for a complete report::

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
::nods:: CSO: Okay... ::gasps:: WAIT! There's Borg technology on that ship.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
XO: Yes...

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
::nods:: XO: That's what I've been trying to tell you.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
XO: And a cloaking device, apparently... that wasn't there before.

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
::raises an eyebrow:: Self: Well I tried to tell you that but .......::smiles::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
CTO: Or it could be within the field that is blocking us, preventing us from seeing it until almost on top of it.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
XO: Lieutenant, according to what I have here she was heading for the Briar Patch when she dropped off the radar, so to speak.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
CTO: I am picking up an energy charge.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
FCO: Evasive maneuvers... they may fire.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
XO: The Vulcans don't appear to have a clue what happened to it... ::checks his sensors as the CSO makes the report::

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
::pops the escape hatch and grips the first rungs of the escape ladder and begins climbing towards the Bridge::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
XO: Correction, I think they will  fire... it's increasing.

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
CTO: Shields to maximum if they're not already.

ACTION: The Rel'Be sends another tachyon burst hurling toward the Sharikahr causing even more consoles to spark and explode. Shields suddenly go offline.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::her hands move back quickly as a few sparks fly::

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
::covers his face as sparks fly past his face::

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
ALL: Damage report! ::shakes her hand, as it got stung by the electricity::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
CEO: I believe that answers an earlier question.  It is the vessel firing the tachyons.

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
::holds onto the ladder for dear life as the ship rocks::

FCO_Ens_Ringwald says:
::nearly gets tossed from her seat as she tries to pull the Sharikahr into an evasive pattern::

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
CSO: Well that’s one thing we do know.

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
::backs up some as her console shoots a spark but goes back to it right away and reroutes the power to the secondary power module::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
XO: Shields are down for the count... attempting to reinitialize. ::tries to reset them to recharge::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
Computer, damage report.

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
XO: Sir, detecting transporter activation in the shuttle bay.

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
XO: Someone is beaming off the ship.

Host Computer says:
CSO: Shields are down and the Warp Core is down. Oh yes... a transporter beam has also been detected.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
CTO: Get those shields back online!

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
XO: The Captain?

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
XO: I'm trying.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
Computer:  Lock onto that transporter bream and retrieve person.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
CEO: I have no idea.

Host Computer says:
CSO: Unable to comply, the Vulcan vessel has raised shields.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
XO: Lieutenant, please tell me I can start shooting.

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
*CIV* Could you please initiate a site to site transport to the Bridge?

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
CTO: Charge weapons.

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
XO: Sir, it is the captain that is beaming.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
CIV: Hail them again.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::runs an internal scan to determine who it was who took off::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
Computer: Computer, any suggestions?

Host Computer says:
CSO: I would suggest retreat.

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
XO: Ma'am, with all due respect.. I highly doubt there are any Vulcans on that ship to respond to our hails.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
Computer: Great. A cowardly computer...

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
Computer: Computer. Defend your answer...

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::continues to work the shields back online, charging weapons at the same time::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::her hands continue along her console, rerouting certain areas now damaged::

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
CEO: Well we can't shoot them now can we...

Host Computer says:
CSO: The Vulcan vessel has a high influx of Borg and Romulan technology. In all battle simulations the Sharikahr's success rate is 5.031%.

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
XO: Sir, isn't it logical to assume that with a ship that has been infested with Borg technology wouldn't it be attempting to communicate with the sum of its parts?

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
XO: I have to grudgingly agree with the computer, we should take the ship to a safe distance until we can get the shields back online.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
CEO: Fine... ::sighs:: Do it.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
XO: Safety is relative, Lieutenant. We don't need to be in firing range to do damage.

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
::realizes they must be busy and begins climbing towards the Bridge::

ACTION: The Rel'Be hails the Sharikahr.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
Computer:  Logical.  Who was beamed from the ship?

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
XO: We are finally receiving a hail.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
CIV: On screen.

Host Computer says:
CSO: Captain Horn was transported off of the Sharikahr to the Rel'Be two minutes previous.

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
::activates the view screen::

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
::raises an eyebrow:: XO: Or I could be wrong...

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::pulls up the Captain’s transponder codes and scans the vessel::

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
ALL: Keep looking for ways to get the Captain back.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::enters his security authorization and puts a transporter on standby... he does have an idea or two::

ACTION: As the screen powers on a Vulcan male can be seen however, it seems that he has had a few Borg 'modifications'.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
::stands up:: COM: Rel'Be: Explain your actions.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
Computer: Computer, try to identify the modifications done to the tachyon beam and a way we might get around the current blockage.

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
XO: Sir, please be careful. I can not sense what I am seeing.

Host Res`tik says:
COM: Sharikahr: XO: We do not have to explain our actions to the like of you, human.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
CIV: Neither can I and I get along just fine. ::sets her jaw::

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
::reaches the Bridge and crawls through the doors, which thankfully open::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::glances over at Rochelle.::

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
::turns head and looks at the CSO::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::turns around toward the screen; that was not the response she would have expected::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::puts a sequence of commands on standby for the transporter, then goes back to working at resetting the shields::

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
COM: Rel'Be: First of all, I’m not human. Secondly, I would like to speak with our Captain, whom you have taken.

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
CSO: It is quite true. I can not sense that being at all.

Computer says:
CSO: Scans are inconclusive.

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
::immediately notices the Borg modified person on screen as she makes her way to her chair::

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
CSO: I should be able to but I can't.

Host Res`tik says:
@COM: Sharikahr: XO: Have we? ::smiles faintly::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::nods toward Rochelle in acknowledgement::

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
::raises an eyebrow and thinks, ‘Borg with attitude?’::

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
COM: Rel'Be: I notice that you are not part of the Collective.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
Computer:  That was not very helpful.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::glances up from his display and motions the CEO over::

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
::is puzzled by a show of emotion from a Borg::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::sends a sample of the telemetry down to her labs to see if they can find out anything::

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
COM: Rel'Be: Again, explain your actions against us.

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
::heads over to the CTOs console and speaks in a low tone as not to interrupt the XO:: CTO: What is it?

Host Res`tik says:
@COM: Sharikahr: XO: We are not Borg. We have been separated from the collective in hopes to repair the damage done to us.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::responds in the same low tone:: CEO: I learned a trick or two from the academy that might just buy us some time... if we can make it look like we're running.

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
CSO: A Borg with emotion?

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
::raises an eyebrow:: XO: Separated?

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
CIV: If they have broken from the collective...

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::wonders then why they took their captain::

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
CSO: Yes but still Vulcans are supposed to be void of all emotion.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
COM: Rel'Be: Well, what would you like? A make-over? We don't have time for these games.

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
CTO: What do you need to do?

Host Res`tik says:
@COM: Sharikahr: XO: Your Captain's DNA makeup will assist us in our goal. Her life will not be in vain.

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
::her hands still moving over her console making sure the power goes to where it is needed::

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
Self: Over my dead body you will kill her.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
CEO: You don't need working launchers, or even to be in weapons range, to shoot someone. ::gestures to the sequence of commands, designed to simultaneously lock onto a few of their torpedoes, and beam them directly into the shields::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::some how does not believe the captain will agree with that::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::quietly:: CEO:  I am picking up a sensor sweep.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
COM: Rel'Be: Why did you take our Captain? Her DNA certainly isn't Vulcan. In fact, she's a half-breed.

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
CSO: Is it possible they are blocking me from sensing them with a dampening field?

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
CTO: Hold on that one, let's wait to see what Lt. Solaa gets out of them.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
CIV:  Unknown.  They have some ability.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
COM: Rel'Be: Why not take some of our other Vulcan crewmembers? You could not possibly have known that the woman you took was our Captain.

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
CSO: Elaborate?

ACTION: The Rel'Be lowers its shields and the Counselor can be seen shimmering away in a green transporter beam.

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
::feels herself being transported away::

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
::notices his wife being transported off the bridge and tries to hold in an outburst::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
CEO: Aye. ::decides he won't necessarily mention that wasn't exactly an academy trick but a prism one... that's not something to be shared at the mercy of these freaks::

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
::takes a deep breath... Stay cool... stay cool...::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::blinks, and glances to where the counselor used to be::

ACTION: The Rel'Be bring their shields back online.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
CEO:  I believe that answers your question.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
COM: Rel'Be: The Counselor is also only a human.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
Computer: What do the Counselor and Captain have in common?

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
XO: Sir may I make a suggestion?

Host Res`tik says:
@COM: Sharikahr: XO: You assistance is no longer required. ::cuts the comm::

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
::turns to the CIV:: CIV: Yes?

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
::can't hold it in and slams his fist down on a nearby railing:: CSO: Get that comm link back.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
XO: Lieutenant, as much as I'm all for diplomacy, I still have an itchy finger I need to scratch.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::nods and makes the attempt::

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
@::rematerializes in a holding cell aboard the ship and sees the CO unconscious:: CO: Captain. ::shakes her::

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
XO: We might try to use the frequencies of their transporter wave and maybe sending a feed back to their ship.  They may be using a dampening device that is not allowing me to sense the captain's presence and theirs.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
CTO: I'm sorry, but my orders were to not engage the Borg unless the Captain was here on the Bridge. Now, granted that she was taken forcefully... that might make things better but still...

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
XO: And if you want a reason, they're readying to fire again.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
FCO: Evasive maneuvers!

Vulcan says:
@CNS: Do not touch her!

FCO_Ens_Ringwald says:
::executes a quick twisting maneuver, and tries putting lots and lots of space, literally, between them::

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
::pushes power into the engines from the reserves::

ACTION: The Rel'Be fires on the Sharikahr, causing the ship to shake violently.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
CIV: See what you can do about that, Rochelle.

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
@Vulcan: Why not? She may be hurt.

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
CEO: I have boosted.......::gets shaken up quite bad::

Computer says:
CSO: They are both female... analyzing…

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
ALL: I'm up with any suggestions at this point in time.

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
XO: Sir, I will try, sir. ::grabs rail again and steadies herself::

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
::flips over the railing and falls over the CNS' chair, landing on the floor in front of the XO::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::nearly falls out of his chair again, but stabilizes himself:: XO: How about the obvious... return fire?

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
CEO: They are not responding.

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
XO: Sir another suggestion?

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
::helps the CEO up:: CEO: That was quite acrobatic, Falor...

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
::smiles::

ACTION: The Rel'Be goes into Warp 1 and leaves the Shariakhr in their dust.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
CIV: Yes?

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
::nods at her, cracking a small smile:: XO: Thanks.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
XO: Or... we could... not... they've gone to warp.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::locks onto the Rel'Be's direction::

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
Self: Dammit...

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
XO: Maybe we should follow their trail??  Borg assimilated technology does leave a trail.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
ALL: Any objections to NOT following it?

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
CIV: Which is useless to us without warp drive, Lieutenant.

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
CTO: We don't have warp?

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
CEO: Oh yeah, I forgot about that...

CIV_LtJG_Rochelle says:
CTO: Well sir.......true enough.......

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
@Vulcan: Why can't I touch her?

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
CEO: Unless the computer's lying about our warp core being offline, no sir.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
XO: Course heading, Vulcan.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
CTO: Not even Warp 1? ::turns backwards to look at the CTO::

Vulcan says:
@CNS: Stay silent!

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
CSO: Oh, good... that's on our way! ::smiles sarcastically::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
XO: Lieutenant, I'm no engineer... but I'm pretty sure no warp core means just that.

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
::feels the frustration boiling in his veins, but tries to speak calmly:: XO: Permission to report to Engineering.

T’Crel says:
@::moves over to the Counselor with a smile on her face:: CNS: Do not worry, Counselor Rodos, we have been expecting you for quite some time.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
CEO: How long until we can get it online? And yes, please go.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
XO: Once Lieutenant Rodos has us back online... I am curious at their much slower speed.

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
XO: I'll give you an estimate when I get down there.

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
@::grits her teeth, very much wanting to say something, but know she has her baby's safety to think of::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::goes back to trying to get the shields online again::

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
::enters the turbolift:: TL: Engineering.

T’Crel says:
@CNS: You are worried about your little one aren't  you?

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
@ ::scared but trying to hide it:: T'Crel: How did you know?

Computer says:
CSO: Lieutenant, I have not been able to determine any commonalities between the Captain and Counselor except for that they are indeed female.

ACTION: Turbolifts come back online and main power seems to suddenly bust back to life.

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
::steps off the lift and enters into Engineering, his anger motivating him:: Dag: Report!

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
Computer: There are many females aboard. Try the cellular level.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
FCO: Impulse engines maybe?

EO_Dag says:
CEO: Warp drive is down sir, we're--::gets cut off by the CEO::

Computer says:
CSO: Analyzing.

T’Crel says:
@CNS: We have much in common. ::smiles::

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
::heads over to the nearest console and begins running diagnostics:: Dag: Tell me something I don't know, Ensign.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
CTO: I do not suppose they were chosen due to their previous experience with the colonists, on top of being female?

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
@T'Crel: What do we have in common?

FCO_Ens_Ringwald says:
::checks her systems:: XO: I can get us to half impulse... no more, Lieutenant.

T’Crel says:
@~~~CNS: Much more then you think.~~~ ::smiles even wider::

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
FCO: Set a course for Vulcan... half impulse... ::sighs heavily and plops down in the CO's chair::

FCO_Ens_Ringwald says:
::plays her hands over her console, and eases the ship, what's left of it, to best speed::

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
@::looks shocked that she can hear that:: T'Crel: What have you done to me?

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::calls up the specs on their new runabouts::

EO_Dag says:
::gets a bit nervous:: W-Well.. sir.. r-repair teams are on it.. b-but they don't have an estimate, they can't find the problem.

T’Crel says:
@ ~~~CNS: I have done nothing, my child, it is what she has done to you.~~~ ::motions to her stomach::

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
::looks at Dag with a look that could kill::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::begins various analysis programs for the field they encountered::

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
@::suddenly remembers the genetic anomaly the CMO told her and responds::~~~ My baby is a telepath?~~~

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
XO: Lieutenant, I have an idea.

T’Crel says:
@~~~CNS: All in due time, child, all in due time.~~~ ::walks away::

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
CTO: Yes?

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
XO: The runabouts are each equipped with quantum torpedoes. And, at this moment, will go faster than this ship.

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
EO: Get everyone you can on the problem, take people from the other shifts if you need to, we need engines NOW.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
XO: In two words, think scorpion.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
::notes she is still unable to get through the blockage::

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
::nods:: CTO: Hmmm... That's an interesting idea.

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
@::sits down, letting her fear show as T'Crel walks away::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
XO: Glad you think so, Lieutenant. Permission to leave the bridge?

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
CTO: Granted.

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
::runs a sensor scan of the core, trying to find damage::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::gets out of his seat, and double times it for the TL:: TL: Shuttlebay.

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
::a shiver runs down his spine as he realizes the problem and taps his combadge with a face as if he just saw a ghost:: *XO*: Uh, Lieutenant...

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
@Self: What's going on?

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
*CEO*: What is it?

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::steps out of the TL, and b-lines it for the nearest runabout, entering it and performing the preflight::

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
*XO*: I think we have bigger problems, Lieutenant… I just ran a sensor sweep of the core, looking for any physical damage to the reaction chamber, and well... ::sighs:: I'm picking up microscopic entities inside of the core. I can only speculate what they could be... but I have a pretty good guess.

ACTION: The Counselor can sense the emotions all around her from the Vulcans - fear, anger, hate, and a bit of happiness now that she was there.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
XO: I would suggest 'punching' through... ::pauses as her console informs her of a change.::  I am picking up some kind of device.  ::frowns::  It could be what is blocking us.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
*CEO*: Oh my god... you are KIDDING.

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
::sighs:: *XO*: I wish I was.

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
*CEO*: Do whatever it takes to contain it.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::enters his security code, and engages the prelaunch subroutines::

CEO_LtJG_Rodos says:
*XO*: Aye ma'am.

CNS_LtJG_M_Rodos says:
@::sits in the cell, nearly overwhelmed by the emotion around her::

XO_Lt_Solaa says:
CSO: I think our problems just got bigger. There are nanites in the core.
