USS Sharikahr NCC-81204
Stardate 10605.18

Mission #254

The unexpected always seems to plague the crew of the USS Sharikahr. No matter how hard they try, something else seems to go wrong. Everything seemed to finally be going well for the past 39 hours.

The Sharikahr was in pursuit of the medical Cargo Ship, they would soon learn what was so important about where they were heading, and hopefully be able to put all of this behind them. However, without any warning, the Cargo Ship changed direction toward a new course: the Qual System.

Instead of moving the Sharikahr closer, Captain Irvin had Executive Officer Rodos prepare an Away Team to take a shuttle in order to attempt to get a better scan. This Away Team was originally going to consist of Doctor Cartwright and Lieutenant Murphy, but Murphy convinced the Captain to add the Counselor to the bunch.

Before the Away Team even left the Bridge, two Vulcan Scout Ships were detected moving to the sides of the Cargo Ship. Each of these vessels carried one Romulan Disruptor. During this time, Commander Haynes continued her search for a place to “hide” the Sharikahr. Her scans found a single asteroid in the system that was stationary.

With that new information learned, the scout ships and cargo ship began to move toward the asteroid. The female woman from the Cargo Ship also began to communicate telepathically with the Counselor again as well, stating that they ruined everything before the link was broken.

Suddenly, an energy build up was detected within the Cargo Ship. Both scout ships moved into the asteroid as several small explosions erupted within the Cargo Ship, causing it to be ripped in half. None of the individuals aboard were saved.

The Sharikahr then received a hail from an unknown origin, which was later to be traced back to inside the asteroid. The individual on audio ordered the Sharikahr to leave or face destruction. As the comm is cut, the crew begins to formulate a plan to leave a Runabout behind. However, events on the Bridge turn as Counselor Millicent Rodos' water breaks.

Will the Counselor be successful in having her child? Is the asteroid the base of operations for the Cardassian Eleventh Order or is it just a disguised space station?

::raises an eyebrow as she watches everyone begin to pay attention to the Counselor:: CO: Captain, we need to get out of here, now.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
LT: Agreed.... But I want to leave a little something behind first... We're you listening to my orders?

Host Lt_Murphy says:
CO: Yes, however, we probably won't have time for that. ::sounds a bit serious::

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
CTO: I am going to make it look like a wrecked shuttle because they will ignore it.

CO Energizing now sir.

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
::screams and pants:: XO: Shut up!

Host Lt_Murphy says:
::rolls eyes as she watches the XO:: CO: And he is your Exec?

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
CEO: Do something about the Starfleet ID markings if you don't mind? Wrecked or not I'd prefer not to be shot at for being... well, Starfleet.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
:: No longer surprised, debates a moment on heading back down to the lab.::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
Lt: Shut up... He's a father first....

XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::gives Murphy a cold stare::

ACTION: The Counselor and Doctor Cartwright are transported to Sickbay.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
:: With a slight shake of her head, steps onto the bridge and moves toward her station::

XO_Lt_Rodos says:
CO: Permission to leave the bridge, sir?

XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::breathing heavily::

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
MOs: Help me get her up on a table now!

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
CTO: Well I can wreck the symbol so you don’t get picked out of the sky.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::raises an eyebrow:: XO: You have to ask? GO!

XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::runs to the turbolift:: TL: Sickbay!

Host Lt_Murphy says:
CO: Yes... apparently. ::sighs:: CSO: Lieutenant, would you mind scanning that asteroid out there and... see if it is using holographic technology?

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
XO: Relax sir. Millie is in good hands.

XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::nods to the CIV as the doors close and the TL descends, but not quite fast enough for his liking::

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
::gets CNS up on the bed with the an MO::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
:: Lifts a brow, saying nothing as she nods to the science officer on sensors and logs on.::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CIV: Ms Rochelle... Slave in helm please....

TO_Ens_Smith says:
 ::just watches the bridge descend into chaos briefly, thinking:: Self: Should of transferred when we were docked...

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CIV: Plot a retroactive course out of here at warp 1 and stand by.

ACTION: The Turbo Lift's lights flicker and it suddenly stops.

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
::pants after the passing of the contraction::

XO_Lt_Rodos says:
Self: WHAT? NO! ::taps Combadge:: *CIV*: Site to site transport... transport me to Sickbay immediately.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::nods once:: CEO: Let me know when you've finished. ::moves to get out of the man's way::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
:: Transfers the telemetry and scans through the data.::

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
CO: Aye sir  ::plots the course back from were they came from::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::smacks the intercom button on the center seat, not sitting:: *CTO/CEO* Where the hell is that damn shuttle?! We're out of time....

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
::gets prepared as the other MOs get her changed into a gown::

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
::sets phaser to a low but high beam and begins firing::

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::smacks the wall of the turbolift:: Self: Bloody useless things!

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::taps his badge:: *CO*: I'm no engineer, but I'm guessing it takes time to alter a shuttle, captain. Another minute should do it. ::mouths to the CEO:: Hurry will you?

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
::allows the MO's to prep, assisting as she can::

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
::straps on some rubber gloves and approaches the CNS timidly::

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
CTO: I am not a robot.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
CO: Captain, if I could have a moment of your time...

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::grunts impatiently, ripping the access panel off of the turbolift bulkhead and accessing the computers, initiating his own site-to-site transport to Sickbay::

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
::works faster::

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
::smiles a little:: CMO: Logan, you'll do fine.

ACTION: Lieutenant Rodos is transported to Sickbay.

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
::widens the beam on the phaser for more coverage::

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::looks toward Millie and keeps his distance, not wanting to get in the way::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::moves to get into the shuttle while the CEO works, already beginning the preflight checks::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CSO: Gimme a sec...

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
::lifts the gown and checks her dilatation:: MO_Johnson: I need to giver he a stimulant, she isn't dilatated yet.

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
::sees her husband:: XO: I think you can come hold my hand

MO_Johnson says:
::hands the CMO a stimulant::

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
::walks over to some tools and pulls out a sledgehammer::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
*CTO/CEO* Screw the procedure... Just dump it out of the shuttle bay and let it drift... All I want is the sensor data....

ACTION: The Counselor begins to feel the anxiety from the entire ship. She can hear different conversations and feel several other different emotions.

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::smiles and approaches her, taking her hand in one of his and biting his nails on the other... a habit he's never suffered from before::

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
CTO: You’re clear, go for it.

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
::administers the stimulant::

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
*CO*: We’re all set.

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
::winces as the emotions overtake her::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::preps the launch, and opens a channel:: *Bridge*: Open the doors, this baby's outa here.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CIV: The SECOND that shuttle starts to fall out of the shuttle bay, go to warp speed!

Host Lt_Murphy says:
CSO: Lieutenant, have you found anything? ::turns to her::

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
CO: Understood sir.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CSO: Open the shuttle bay doors....

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
CNS: I'm here for you Millie. ::spoken through the fingers in his mouth, which he continues to nibble on::

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
::now watches the sensor and navigational console for the visual of the shuttle::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
:: Turns to the Lieutenant.::  Lt: I always find things.  :: nods toward the captain as she taps the controls for the bay doors.::

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
::struggles to put up her wall and concentrate on giving birth at the same time::

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
::positions the CNS' feet properly, then checks the dilatation again::

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
::hands input the exit vector and is ready to warp out at warp 7::

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
::looks at Falor:: XO: Honey, if you can't calm down, you'll have to leave I can't concentrate on anything but how scared you are

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::enters a sequence of commands, then bolts out of the shuttle as the maneuvering thrusters begin to power up::

ACTION: The Cargo Bay doors open and the shuttlecraft is released.

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
MOs/CNS: Just about dilatated.

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::exhales:: CNS: Okay, I'm sorry... I'll try.

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
CO: Sir, executing escape vector at warp 7.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
*Bridge*: Shuttle away. If we're leaving, we're leaving now.

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
::grips his hand:: XO: I love you ::screams as another contraction rips through her::

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
*CTO*: We are already at warp 7 moving away.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CIV: The order was Warp 1! Nice and slow if you please!

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
:: Glances over at the captain.::

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::grits his teeth at the pain of his hand being squeezed::

ACTION: The two Vulcan Scout vessels exit the asteroid at the time the shuttlecraft is released. As the Sharikahr warps away, they can sense it being attacked by the twin ships.

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
::reaches into a drawer and pulls out a bottle with some amber liquid in it and hands it to the XO:: XO: Take a big drink of that.

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
CO: Excuse me sir I thought you wanted to exit quickly - bringing the ship back down to warp one.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
CO: I am picking up two Vulcan vessels exiting the asteroid.

TO_Ens_Smith says:
 ::blinks:: CO: The shuttle is being attacked by the scout ships, captain.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CSO: What are they doing?

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::opens the bottle and takes a big gulp, making a sour face as it goes down::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
:: Turns toward him a touch of disgust in her voice.::  CO: Attacking it.

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
::grins at the XO and checks the dilatation again::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::grabs a TL heading for the bridge::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CIV: That's ok Rochelle... Just throttle us back.... I want to take progressive scans as we depart.

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
::sighs as she feels the contraction pass and the scotch calm Falor a bit::

Host Lt_Murphy says:
::rolls her eyes as she waits for the CSO to finally report in::

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
CO: Sir, we are currently at warp 1.

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
CNS: I love you too, Millie.

ACTION: The Counselor feels her unborn child begin to push downward - HARD.

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
XO: Did I hurt your hand?

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
::takes the bottle from the XO and puts it back in the drawer::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::steps out of the TL, and strides evenly to his console... Smith moves to the secondary station::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::turns to face the CTO:: CTO: They are attacking the shuttle...

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
::heads for the TL:: TL: Bridge,

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
CMO/XO: Logan, she's coming...now!

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::logs in, and tries accessing the shuttle's systems remotely:: CO: Permission to make it difficult for them, sir?

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
::checks the CNS again:: CNS/XO: Ok folks it's time!

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
CNS: On the next contraction Millie you have to push, ok?

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::takes a deep breath, having no idea what fate he will soon face::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CTO: We're out of weapons range... and I wanted this to be as covert as possible. Do you have some up your sleeve?

ACTION: The Executive Officer begins to feel extremely queasy and dizzy at the same time.

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
::walks on to the bridge and takes Engineering console 1::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
CO: Well, since they know it's there already, might as well kick down the front door. Sneaking through the back didn't work.

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
::senses Millie’s pain and knows the baby will be coming soon and she smiles::

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
::feels the next contraction start and begins to push::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CTO: Negative... We need to regroup... This is a little more hairy that any of us mentioned....

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::his eyes slowly roll into the back of his head, and then back into proper position again as the room begins to spin around::

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
::squats down a bit watching for the baby::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CIV: Steady as she goes... Take us out 1,000,000 kilometers, then all stop.

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
::squeezes his hand deliberately::

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::the squeezing of his hand brings him out of the near-fainting trance::

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
CO: Understood sir taking us out 1,000,000 km and then bringing the ship to full stop.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::shrugs:: CO: Well, alright. But we aren't gonna get much information like that.

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
XO: Faint later, she needs us now.

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::cracks a smile, not feeling very well at all::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CTO: Mr. Arinoch.... you have the bridge....
CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
CNS: Good Millie, now if you feel the urge to pull Falor's bottom lip over his head, feel free to on the next one.

ACTION: As the Counselor pushes the child begins to emerge. After one more powerful push on Millicent's part, the child's screams can be heard. Suddenly, every officer aboard the Sharikahr begins to feel a surge of mental pain.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::looks to the CSO:: CSO: Ms. So'tsoh, you wanted to talk to me?

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
::Dianna's hands go to her head in pain::

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::screams and holds his head as he drops to the ground in horrific pain::

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
::screams::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
CO: Yes... I... :: blinks as she reaches out toward the captain in pain.::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::blinks, just once, and nearly hits the deck from the pain::

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
::stumbles as the surge of pain almost overtakes him as he moves the baby to an incubator::

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
::calls to her companion for help in filtering out the pain and Red Wing does what he cando but is not able to help this time as he  is also in great pain::

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
::fall back on the floor in pain::

Host Lt_Murphy says:
::falls to the floor at the pain:: All! What the!

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
::gets herself together as it lessens:: ~~~Victory: Stop that~~~

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::from the combination of stress, scotch, and telepathic pain, he faints on the ground::

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
::literally grabs her ears and head and tires to squeeze the pain out::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::begins to take a step to the ready room and doubles over in pain::

Host Lt_Murphy says:
::closes her eyes in an attempt to cope with the pain, but not doing a very good job at it::

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
All: Stop the pain.

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
::concentrates on controlling the surge:: ~~~Victory: Sweetheart, please you are hurting mommy, daddy, and everyone else. Please darling.~~~

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
::falls to his knees as he closes the incubator::

ACTION: The infant girl begins to calm down, which causes the pain to lessen second by second until it finally goes away completely.

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
::gets up very slowly::

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
::shaking her head to rid the pain as it lessens wondering what in the hell happened::

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::his limp body lays on the floor::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
:: Stands straight with a frown.::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::begins to regain his composure as the pain lessens, and straightens, then looks around the bridge at everyone else::

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
::gets off the floor and begins hooking up oxygen to Victory's mouth and nose:;

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::takes a deep breath and stands up straight again:: All: Anyone wanna venture a guess as to what THAT was?

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
CO: Two words well one Betazoid Baby.

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
CO: I would have to guess that was the birth of the CNS's baby.

Host Lt_Murphy says:
::stands up and takes the vacant XO seat:: CO: Something that needs to be shot out of an airlock.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::shakes his head as he stands from his station:: CO: I've had scotch that didn't give me a headache like that.

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
CMO: Logan, she needs oxygen ::looks worried::

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
XO: Right on sir.

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
CNS: I've already got her hooked up.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
Lt: Easy Murphy....

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CSO: Ok... You wanted to see me?

ACTION: Victory can be seen gasping for oxygen every so often. She can breath, but it seems her lungs are a bit under-developed.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
CO: It was a telepathic cry from something in pain... it could be as Rochelle suggested.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::motions Smith back to the primary station as he moves to the command chair--he really isn't going to be used to this one::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
:: Her voice directed to him alone.::  CO: The asteroid is man-made, basically a chunk of rock surrounding the space station.  As for the information you asked me about earlier.  The planets have formed a type of 'alliance' in this solar system.

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
::smiles as she falls back::

CMO_Lt_Cartwright says:
XO: Falor come here.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CSO: I see... Do you have any details?

Host Lt_Murphy says:
::rolls her eyes:: CTO: Lieutenant, what is up with our shuttle?

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
CMO: He's out cold

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
Lt: It's being a target, Lieutenant. As has already been said, I'm sure.

Host Lt_Murphy says:
CTO: And weren't you going to do something about it?

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
*CO*: Captain we have a new crew member.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
CO: Other then the rumors the alliance is linked with the Red Allegiance and Cardassian Eleven Order, unconfirmed, no.  It is also rumored taht they use the people in the solar system as slaves.  If this is true, we might be able to get in that way.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::hears Murphy and clears throat:: Murphy: Last I heard.... I was still in command here.....

ACTION: Three Cardassian Keldon Class Warships can be detected on Long Range Sensors heading toward the Sharikahr at Warp 9.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::gives the lieutenant a nasty look, then directs his attention back to the CO::

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::still laying lifeless on the Sickbay floor::

Host Lt_Murphy says:
CO: You seemed busy, SIR.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
Lt: Sounded like a prequel to being countermanded... Please continue....

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
CO: Sir we have visitors.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
:: ignoring Murphy, looks over at the sensors flashing.::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::faces forward:: CIV: On screen....

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
::puts the viewer on and reveals the ships::

ACTION: The three vessels can be seen on the viewscreen.

TO_Ens_Smith says:
::looks up from displays:: CO/CTO: Three Cardassian warships approaching, sirs.

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
::calls out:: XO: Falor: Wake up!

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::looks at screen:: Self: Oh Crap....

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
CO: Sir shouldn't you be sending the code out?

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::vacates the command chair as the CO's attention goes to the viewscreen::

Host Lt_Murphy says:
ACTION: Falor begins to wake up - slowly.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
CO: Shields and weapons online.

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::cracks his eyes open and looks around, trying to regain his bearings::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::Quickly moves to the center seat:: CIV: It's been programmed into a beacon... We never stopped transmitting...

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::calls out blindly:: CNS: Millie?

Host Lt_Murphy says:
CO: What did I tell you? You made them mad.

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
XO: Welcome back, your daughter is in that incubator over there if you'd like to see her.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::brings up the tactical display, tracking their course and speed::

Host MO_Johnson says:
CNS: What would you like to name the little one?

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::with the help of a couple of MOs, he stands up, his legs feeling a bit like rubber::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
*XO*: Sir, we have three ships on approach.  It would be advisable you return to the bridge.

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
CO: Good, that makes me rest a bit easy but I still have caution flagging my mind.

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
CO: Sir could we just send that sound that the baby gave to us we could send them that sound.

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::rubs his head:: *CSO*: Acknowledged.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CEO: If we could bottle that up....

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CIV: Emergency Warp Power....

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
CO: Sir there is a way to isolate the frequencies and send them a data stream.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::rechecks his display:: CO: Weapons range in 3 minutes.

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
CO: Aye sir emergency warp power now.

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
CIV: That sounds good.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CIV: Really... ::grins:: What do you suggest?

ACTION: Victory begins to cry again and the crew begins to feel another surge of telepathic pain.

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
::ouch the pain::

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::screams and falls to the ground again, squeezing his head::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
:: Feeling the pain, automatically pulls her shields tighter.::

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
Out loud: AARRGGHHH!!!!!! My head again::holds her head in her hands::

Host Lt_Murphy says:
::shouts out:: ALL: This is getting old, real fast!

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
::gets up painfully and moves to the incubator::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
CO: Sir, with your permission, I will be in sickbay.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::tries to work through the pain... this is not the thing to have happen with Cardassian warships on the prowl::

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
::carefully picks Victory up without dislodging any monitors and rocks her:: Victory: Calm down little one, mommy's here.

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
::sits there and begins to shut out each emotion she feels one by one till she only hears the CNS and the baby::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::groans::

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
COMPUTER record that sound.

ACTION: The Warships reach the Sharikahr and fire on their engines, causing the ship to shake violently.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
:: Shaking her head, makes her way to the lift and steps in, gritting her teeth.::  Computer, sickbay.

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::feels consciousness slowly fading again::

Host Computer says:
 CEO: Unable to comply.

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
::wincing in pain as the ship shakes at being fired on::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::struggles:: CEO: I don't think it's a sound so much as an energy wave....

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
:: As the lift stops, she steps out in a slightly drunken sway, pausing before the double glass doors.::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::trying to speak through the pain:: CO: That... was 3 angry warships firing on us.

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
Computer: Raise shields full Maximum.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CPU: Computer... Can you isolate the theta pattern that is being emitted from sickbay at this time?

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
COMPUTER, transmit the wave to those ships.

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
::holds Victory tighter:: Victory: Please sweetheart. Shhh.

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
CO : Sir I have raised the shields to Maximum we are being fired upon by the Cardassian war ships.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
:: With a sigh, steps through and quickly locates the child.::

ACTION: Victory begins to calm down as the Sharikahr is shaken by the disruptor fire. The Sharikahr is hit by another volley, causing several explosions in Main Engineering.

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
CSO: Let me do this.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::points to the CEO:: CEO: Keep us together!

Host Computer says:
CO/CEO: Negative. Energy wave is no longer in use.

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::struggles to stand back up::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
CO: Captain, shall I return fire?

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
:: Feeling a lessening of the pain, stands to face the counselor.::  CNS: She needs to be totally blocked for now.  I can show you how... if you wish to do it.

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
CO: Suggestion sir. Lets get the pdq out of here and fast.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CTO: By all means....

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
::puts some power into the shields::

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
~~~Victory: Shhhh. That's a good girl~~~

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::is already trying to readjust the shields to minimize impact::

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
CNS: Millie, are you okay? I need to get to the bridge... ::trying to shake off the pain::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::targets the lead ship's weapons, and fires phasers and torpedoes::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CTO: Defensive posture only... We're in violation of their space....

Host Lt_Murphy says:
ACTION: Main Engineering reports several casualties. The Sharikahr drops out of warp as the Warships are hit, causing minimal damage.

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
XO: We're fine, go. Of course your daughter might like a quick hello first.

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
CTO: i am going to put more power in the weapons.

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
CO: Sir they are trying to disable our engines. Defensive posture is not recommended here.

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::gently pats Victory's cheek and kisses her forehead:: Victory: I'll be back, darling. Sit still with mommy.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
All: Suggestions!

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
:: Nods to the XO::

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::kisses the CNS on the cheek and jogs out of sickbay::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
CO: Limiting our fire to defensive only is having little effect!

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
<add: and nods to the CSO as he jogs out of sickbay>

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
CO: As I stated before lets get out selves back into Federation space and quickly.

Host Lt_Murphy says:
::regains her composure as the ship shakes once more:: CO: Captain, these aren't ordinary Warships. They are working for the Cardassian Central Command.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CTO: Increase to full spread....

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
:: quietly:: CNS: Milli...

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
CSO: I believe that might be a good idea. Can it be reversed later?

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::brings the remaining weapons systems to bare, and opens fire::

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::still trying to shake the slight dizziness from the scotch as he enters a turbolift:: TL: Bridge.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::turns to Murphy:: Lt: If they were working for the Central Command... I would expect them to be ordinary... Ya think this could be the Obsidian Order at work?

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
CNS: Yes... I can reverse it later, or perhaps when you have the control, you can do it.  If you wish to do this, I will need to meld with you to guide you.

ACTION: The Sharikahr is hit again, causing several explosions, decompressing Decks 6 and 9.

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
Self: No this is not good.

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
Lt. Murphy: With all do respect sir we are in no position to out gun these ships.  They are clearly more powerful and more deadly to this ship.  My opinion is that this not the Cardassian order here it may be the Obsidian Order.  They are known to make their ships more powerful.

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
CO: The computer just told that the warp core is offline.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
:: Knowing a sense of urgency, she maintains a sense of calm, this had to be done now.::

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
CSO: Yes, quickly please. We may have to evacuate.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
CO: Decompressions reported on decks 6 and 9.

Host Lt_Murphy says:
CO: Not according to the markings. ::brings up the information on her side console:: CO: Intelligence has gathered that certain ships working for the Leget or high level Guls are sent out to... do their bidding.

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::exits the turbolift on to the bridge and quickly makes his way to his seat:: All: What the hell is going on!

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CTO: Evacuate those decks and dispatch damage control.!

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CIV: Scan for any Galor class vessels in the vicinity....

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::nods once, already sending the appropriate orders, then sends another volley this time for the ships' power systems::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
:: Taking a deep breath, lifts a hand to the counselors face.  As her fingers touch, she gently and quickly melds with her, glad for once of the past lessons.::  CNS: My mind to your mind...

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
CEO: Do I have impulse power and RCS thrusters?

ACTION: The Sharikahr is hailed by one of the vessels.

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
CO: Scanning sir for any Galor class in the vicinity.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
CO: We're being hailed, sir.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
~~~~ CNS: I will guide you down the pathway, show you the way.  We must go lightly, no more then a feathers touch.~~~~

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
CO: Yes sir but I will go down to Main Engineering and fix the warp core my self.

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::stands next to his seat, staring at Lt. Murphy::

Host Lt_Murphy says:
CIV: Lieutenant, what have you been told regarding the Obsidian Order? Have they been known to work with the Central Command on certain issues?

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::moves over to the helm and starts punching up navigational charts:: Outloud, kinda mumbly: I don't have enough tactical data to maneuver in this sector...

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
::holds Victory close as she enters the meld::

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
Murphy: My chair, if you wouldn't mind.

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
::heads for TL: TL: ME Engineering.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CTO: On screen...

Host Lt_Murphy says:
::looks toward the XO:: XO: Of yes, I seem to have forgotten you were here. ::smirks and stands up::

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
~~~CSO: All right.~~~

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::pipes the transmission to the main viewer::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
:: Gently she guides Millicent, her body keeping her breathing even::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::looks to Murphy and to the XO as if to say, " I have NO idea what to say to them now"::

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
Lt. Murphy: Yes sir I have been told that they do as you say.  They have been known to upgrade the regular Keldon class ships for their own work.

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::sits down in his chair::

Host Lt_Murphy says:
ACTION: A Cardassian Gul appears on the viewscreen.

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
::runs into Maine Engineering and begin to work on the Warp core::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::attempts a life sign scan of all 3 ships::

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
Lt. Murphy: I do have a contact in the Obsidian order that I might be able to get information from but it will take at least 24 hours to track him down.

Host Gul Vertek says:
@COM: Sharikahr: Federation vessel. On behalf of the Cardassian Central Command, you have been ordered to be taken into custody. You will comply or face destruction.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
:: Locating the pathway:: ~~~~ CNS: If you look carefully, you will see a 'light'.  While I am here with you, Victory can only sense you.  What I need you to do, is think of that light surrounded by a forcefield.~~~~

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
::raises and eyebrow::

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
::does as the CSO says::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::walks over to the center seat, and sits in it kinda gingerly, then looks to the CTO, pausing for a moment::

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::sighs, thinking to himself:: Self: Does anything ever go right on this ship?

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CTO: Signal our surrender....

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CTO: Drop the shields....

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
:: As she sees the light beginning to dim...:: ~~~~ CNS: Mentally touch these three nerves, at the same time.  When it is time to remove the block, you will repeat in reverse, what we have done here.~~~~

Host Lt_Murphy says:
CO: You've got to be kidding!

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
::Dianna's hands fly over her console bringing up the information of her contact on Cardassia and her contact in the Obsidian order::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::reserved tone of voice:: Lt: I am not kidding....

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::gives the CO the all too familiar "You've lost it." look, but he signals the surrender anyway::

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
::concentrates and mentally touches the nerves as instructed::

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::has absolutely no idea what's going on::

Host Lt_Murphy says:
CO: Captain, are you seriously going to...? ::her eyes scan him::

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::slowly begins to take the shields down::

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
Lt Murphy: It is advisable till I get in contact with my contact on the planet.  I might be able to find out the reasons why we are being held.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
:: Lightly adjusts the touch, showing Millicent what she did.  Then carefully and gently pulls the two of them back out.::

Host Gul_Vertek says:
@COM: Sharikahr: CO: Your Bridge and Engineering crews are to report to the Cargo Bays. I expect your complete compliance during this time.

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::just gives the CIV a look--he's had more than enough of SFI to last him 50 lifetimes::

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
::picks up her PADD and downloads her information onto the PADD::

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::stands up and enters the Captain's ready room without saying a word, plopping himself down on to the couch and breaking down::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
~~~~ CNS: My mind to your mind... where once we were one...~~~~ now we are two.  :: Opens her eyes and gently lifts her fingers.  Quietly::  Are you alright?

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
COM: Vertek: We have medical responsibilities to attend to. There will be a number of people left in our sickbay. The rest of those that are able will be there.

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
CTO: I am going to help by getting information about the reasons why we are being detained and possibly us releases.  I know your looks by now.

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
::rocks her now "normal" little girl"::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
COM: Vertek: Give me a moment to inform my crew....

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::thinks to himself:: If it wasn't for SFI we wouldn't be here in the first place.

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
::runs around in Engineering::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
:: Looks around the room::  CNS: Things do not look good.

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
::sings Brahm's lullaby::

Host Gul_Vertek says:
@COM: Sharikahr: CO: I don't care about time! Prepare to be boarded!

Host Lt_Murphy says:
::whispers:: CIV: Your Captain has lost his mind...

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
:: Gently guides the counselor to a chair.::

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
::runs to the Lt::

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
::sits::

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
::calls to Red Wing and lets him know what is happening and the bird goes to work::

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
TL: bridge.

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::looks to the CTO:: CTO: Screen off....

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CIV: QUICK scan... Tell me that ship is not of the Eleventh Order....

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::kills the transmission, giving the CO another "you've definitely lost it" look::

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
CO: Running scan now sir.

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
CNS: If you will be alright, I should head back to the bridge...  :: A question in her voice.::

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
::walks on to the bridge::

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
CO: No sir it is not of the Eleventh order sir.

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
CO: It is of the first order.

CNS_Lt_Rodos says:
CSO: We'll be fine, go

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
::makes a fist:: Self: YES!

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::blinks::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
:: Lightly brushes her fingers across the child’s brow, then turns to leave.::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
XO: Signal all personnel that are able to gather in the cargo bays....

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CPU: Computer... Lock down all command functions, Authorization Irvin 4 Omega 1 9 1 2

Host Computer says:
CO: Command functions locked down.

ACTION: 75 Cardassian Soldiers beam aboard the Sharikahr and one of the Warships places her in a tractor beam.

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
CO: Sir I have a few things that need attending to first.

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::standing in the doorway of the ready room, approaches his console and makes the necessary announcements::

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::is completely silent::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
CIV: No time... All: and let me make this PERFECTLY clear....

CTO_LtJG_Arinoch says:
::grabs a phaser, and heads for the cargo bay::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
All: You will comply with them. There will be NO resistance....

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
All: Is that PERFECTLY clear?

CEO_LtJg_Harris says:
CO: yes sir.

Host XO_Lt_Rodos says:
::nods silently::

Host Lt_Murphy says:
CO: You have totally lost it, sir. ::stands as several Cardassians materialize on the Bridge::

CSO_Lt_So`tsoh says:
:: Hearing the order, pauses outside the medical doors.::

Host CO_Capt_Irvin says:
Lt: You opinion is noted Lieutenant....

CIV_Lt_D_Rochelle says:
CO" Yes sir.  ::mentally calls Red Wing and slides her small PADD into her concealed pocket and heads for the cargo bay::
