Space, the final frontier...These are the adventures of the USS Sharikahr in her continuing mission to bring peace where conflicts may arise, to explore new worlds untouched by the eyes of men, and to brave the darkness of the last vast, unknown.
Last time on the USS Sharikahr, the crew tried to help Ozymandias to reactivate the Black Ship name Ark. 12 teams have been transported by the Guardian in different part of the ships and despite the numerous booby traps and tricks used by the Cardassians, they managed to succeed.
Yet the toll paid by the Sharikahr has not been light, 18 people are in sickbay, 7 of them seriously wounded, and apparently all the programs left by the Cardassians manage to hurt the crew's virtual bodies as much as real threats would damage their real bodies.
The price paid in blood may not be enough. The most important repairs, in what looks like the Black Ship's main engineering room, are still underway. Only if the Away team re-align the complex array of interlinks within the primary EPS grid, Ozymandias will have his ship with enough functionality to defeat the Cardassian fleet underway.
A huge carnivorous acid spitting worm, impervious to small arms fire may have some saying in the matter.

@::pacing the "Bridge" of the Arc, listening to the goings on in "Main Engineering"::
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@CTO: Adam, see if you can erect a level 10 force field across that entryway, I'd rather not use your troops for doorstops. Then get your people to covering positions and get to the auxiliary panel yourself and help me get these systems back online please.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@OPS: Aye Commander

@ACTION: THE SOUND OF COLLISION RESONATES IN THE ROOM, AND A LARGE DENT APPEARS IN MAIN ENGINEERING THE DOOR.

CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
:: Working on crew members in sickbay::
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@::Starts trying to bring the power grid and EPS systems back online::
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::walks to a console and begins working on erecting the field across the door::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
:: Holding his place aboard the Sharikahr, he looks for his science chief ::
Host Enrico says:
<FCO_Polo> CO: Navigational sensors indicate that the Cardassian ships have accelerated exponentially, and now their ETA is just 25 minutes, Sir.
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
:: Watches as a monitor shows a flat line, and no life signs::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
FCO: Understood.  Inform Commander Rodos.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::fingers fly across the console::
FCO_Ens_Korax says:
::In sickbay with a massive gash to his abdomen, growling at the MO's refusing treatment.::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: At her station, looking over the data while monitoring the area.::

@INFO: NOW THAT THEY HAVE A FEW SECONDS TO BREATH THE AT CAN TAKE NOTICE OF THE SURROUNDINGS THEY SPOT A LONG CATWALK ON THE OTHER EXTREMITY OF THE ROOM; THE ROOM IS EMPTY APART FROM THE PANEL YOU ARE WORKING ON AND THE WALLS EMIT A DIFFUSE LOW INTENSITY LIGHT.

Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
CSO: Once the away team has completed their task, will there be additional tasks we will need to complete?
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@*XO*: Exec, you might want to tell our friend Oz that his anti-virus stuff for the phasers needs an upgrade, it isn't effecting our problem down here anymore.
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
:: Cracks her back, stiff from standing so long, and looks at the next bed over::
FCO_Ens_Korax says:
::Hisses at the CMO::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Stands up and turns around:: CO: None that I can find.  All should be in place.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::begins to look for the right commands for the force field::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
:: Patiently awaits word from his executive officer ::

@ACTION: Another thud and another dent show the AT that the worm on the other side of the door has not quit.

OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
<Ops_Murphy> CO: Captain, the Spoonheads... er... Cardassians are hailing us Sir.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::looks up and begins to work faster::
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@OPS: Will do Commander. 
@Ozymandias: We seem to have an issue; your anti-viral modifications do not seem to be working. Can you boost them at all?
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
:: Looks at the monitor for readings for the FCO, ignoring the FCO's hisses::
FCO_Ens_Korax says:
::Swats an MO's hand away and hisses at her.::
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@::Looks over the alien controls and tries to sort out what might do what to get the power online::
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
:: Shakes her head at the FCO, and leaves::
Host Enrico says:
@<Ozymandias> XO: I am sorry commander in this state, this is the best I can do. They are using my AI against me. So they adapt quickly.
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@::Starts to reconnect the series of plasma conduits:: CTO: Give me a hand connecting these things, will you Adam? We are both rated Engineers, and I don't want to hang here any longer than we need too.
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@*CO*: We seem to be running into more problems here Captain. OPS and the CTO are working as fast as they can on the last repair but the anti viral phasers aren't working.
FCO_Ens_Korax says:
::Growls at MO Johnson.:: MO Johnson: naDevvo' yIghoS!
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::nods in compliance and walks over to OPS::

@ACTION: Now a sizzling noise seems to come from the door, a green liquid makes its way through the metal of the door and starts to appear at the seam.

CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::begins to connect the conduits::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
:: Takes a breath in and out ::  Duty OPS: On screen.
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
:: Comes back to the FCO and injects a paralyzing agent into him::  FCO: I'm busy, and have no time for juvenile patients.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@Self::I’d give a bottle of scotch if that thing would sod off::
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
<OPS_Murphy> ::Puts the hail up on the main viewer::

ACTION: The image of an old Cardassian with the remains of a uniform of a Gul is projected through the main viewer.

CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: her eyes shift toward the screen and she nods in that direction.::  CO: Captain
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@ *CO*: How are things on your end.
Host Enrico says:
<Gul_Saragat>: COM: CO: Captain, please stop what you are doing or you are going to doom us all.
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
:: Waits for the drug to take effect and injects the second hypo of Hypercoagulin to slow down the bleeding::
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@CTO: I know it may not do any good, but have your people hold fire until the monster gets in here, then concentrate their fire in its mouth when it opens, it might help. Best we can do, you and I need to get these connected or we are all toast.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
*XO*: The Cardassians have requested to speak with us.  :: Looks to the CSO to speak with the XO ::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
COM: Gul: Explain.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Lifts a brow at the Cardassians comment::

ACTION: The FCO seems to be losing strength and his movement relax and become less frantic.

CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::continues to reconnect the conduits::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
*XO*: Commander, we have ascertained what it is that is supposed to go on, but it would appear, there might be another side to the story.  We have a Cardassian asking us to stop before we doom us all.
FCO_Ens_Korax says:
CMO: HItlhejQo'neS!
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
:: with the  FCO not moving, puts on intraspinal inhibitor to stop him from moving an inch while she works on his stomach wound::
Host Enrico says:
<Gul_Saragat>: COM: CO: This is a trap! Do not repair the ship. Do not believe Ozymandias!
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
:: Crosses his arms ::  COM: Gul: What evidence do you have to suggest this is a trap?
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::begins to whistle softly as he connects the conduits::

ACTION: The biobed shows that the FCO kidneys are failing rapidly. An artery opens in his abdomen.

CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Quietly:: *XO*: We are being informed, this is a trap.  Have you seen anything there to lead you to that belief?
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@OPS: Not much longer now
FCO_Ens_Korax says:
::Roars in pain.::

@ACTION: As soon as the AT reconnects one of the energy conduits they start to emit a blue light and a luminous blue liquid begins to flow through them.

CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
:: moves over the wound, and begins work with the deep tissue dermal regenerator::
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@::Moves to the far end and begins connecting conduits, working toward the CTO to meet halfway::
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@*CSO*: Just the acid spitting snakes which Ozymandias claims the Cardassians put there>
FCO_Ens_Korax says:
CMO: bImoHqu'
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::steadily and patiently works his way towards OPS::
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@*CSO*: Inform the CO I am going to order repairs to be put on hold until this is figured out.
Host Enrico says:
<Gul Saragat>: COM: CO: Evidence, none, but we barely escaped the first time. He needs you to fix the ship and then he is going to imprison you. He already tried with us.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
*XO*: No indication that there is more then we have been told by this Arc?
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
:: Uses tweezers to remove debris from the wound:: FCO: Hush now.  :: Grabs another hypo from an MO walking by::
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@*CSO*: None, except that the weapons we were given are not working.
FCO_Ens_Korax says:
::Follows the CMO with glazed over eyes.::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
COM: Gul: And you escaped.  If he is a threat, why have you remained far away from this site... and indeed, not neutralized the threat?
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
*XO*: A dampener by the vessel or something left by the Cardassians?  Can you... talk to the Arc and ask?
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@ *OPS/CTO*: Hold on repairs for a moment please
Host Enrico says:
<Gul Saragat> COM: CO: We did neutralize the threat, then you arrived and you are activating it again. Please Captain, please stop.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@OPS: Commander we better hurry up that door is about to fail at any minute now
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
*CMO*: I understand you are busy, but I have a question.  Does what you know about the Partholians DNA fit with what the Black ship says?
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::raises an eyebrow:: XO: Aye Boss
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
:: now uses an auto suture for some of the more severe trauma the dermal regenerator could not fix::
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@*XO*: We have a problem, XO, my team's position is about to be overrun, and unless we can extract from here, we are going to get toasted. Please advise.

ACTION: Once the FCO’s artery is cautherized, another one seems on the verge of opening.

CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::stops what he is doing and takes up a position watching the door::
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@*OPS/CTO*: The CO is speaking with the Cardassians. They claim Ozymandias is the enemy and the arc is a trap.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::takes a photon grenade out and sits it by him in easy reach::
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@Self: fracking great! And were stuck in the lion’s den
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@*XO*: Either way, my team is going to die when that worm gets in here. Honestly, it doesn't matter much to us which side it's on. What do we do?
FCO_Ens_Korax says:
::Looks at the CMO and says barely audible.:: CMO: Shoot me.

@ACTION: Another thud shows that the door won't resist much longer to this kind of attack.

Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
COM: Gul: Do you have vessel sensor readings, anything to back your claim?  Or can you tell us how to return to our proper time?
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@*Ozymandias*: We seem to be getting conflicting stories about you. Explain.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::sighs and looks around at the faces of his TO`s. The sites the door::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: getting no response, turns back around and begins quickly pulling up data of the Partholians and overlaying facts they were given by the black ship.::
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@All: OK folks... take cover, and aim for the mouth when it comes in; maybe it's weaker inside than out. It’s our best hope.
Host Enrico says:
<Gul Saragat> COM: CO: You are in your time, this is just an illusion created by a computer. A computer located in the Temple of the Silver Columns.
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
FCO: Well...I can't do that, but. Do you not want me to use all my measures to bring you back if you code?
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
COM: Gul: Then if this is merely an illusion, none of it is real.  So nothing we would do would make a difference.  Tell us how to break free of the illusion.
FCO_Ens_Korax says:
::Eyes flutter and the CMO disappears and he finds himself on a Boat.::
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@::Takes cover behind the console and readies her phaser rifle on full power::
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@*Ozymandias*: Give me some information or I'm beaming the team back to the ship and leaving you to rot. You have ten seconds.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Orders transporter to prepare for an emergency beam out... and hopes they can succeed::
Host Enrico says:
<Gul Saragat> COM: CO: Help me destroy the ship and we will be free.
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
:: Looks as the monitor as the vitals get worse::
Host Enrico says:
@<Ozymandias> XO: He is lying, the desperate lies of a desperate man. All I told you is true. The blood of your men should prove it.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::thinks he needs a cigar::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
COM: Gul: You claim that the only way to break free is to destroy the ship.  He claims the only way to break free is to repair the vessel.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Moves from her station and over to the captain, to quietly speak with him, sotto voce.::  CO: I can find nothing in the data given or what we had to either verify or deny that statement.
FCO_Ens_Korax says:
::Eyes open again and he gurgles at the CMO.::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
CSO: Of course.  That would be too obvious....
Host Enrico says:
@<Gul_Saragat>: COM:CO: Captain, I did not kidnap you here, he did.
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@::Looks over at the CTO, shrugs::
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@*CSO*: I am attempting to provoke Ozymandias. If he reacts badly then we will know something isn't right.
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
FCO: I need an answer ensign.  :: Works on the newest bleed::

@ACTION: The door in Main Engineering finally gives up and with a roar the worm begins making his way in  the room.

OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@CTO: At least I know I was with the best in the end.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
@ :: steps away and turns her back on the screen.  Quietly:: *XO*: Be careful.  An emergency beam out is ready, but...
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@All: Hold your fire lads, wait for him to open his big mouth
FCO_Ens_Korax says:
::Eyes close again and he is back on this boat again.::
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@::Rests her rifle over the console and waits for a target:: *XO*: Door is breached XO, our position has been compromised. The next sound you hear will be us dying.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: sotto voce:: CO: One... possibility to discover the truth... :: speaks with uncertainty::  If the minds of the scientist are there... we should be able to... speak with them...
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
:: His mind races as he ponders their choices ::
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@*CSO*:  Beam them back
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
COM: Gul: How were you almost "captured" and how did you escape?

@ACTION: A security guard runs at the worm shooting, until a jet of acid hits him and throws him on the ground slowly dissolving.

CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::watches the worm enter the room:
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
*TC*: Activate transporter, beam out our crew.
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
<OPS_Murphy> ::Activates the transporter and attempts to recover the AT::

ACTION: The Away Team beams back aboard the SharikaHR.

OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
CTO: That was a little too close, but glad we made it. ::Grins::
Host Enrico says:
@<Ozymandias> XO: Noo, what did you do, we are doomed now. I cannot stop the Cardassians.
FCO_Ens_Korax says:
::Eyes open again.::
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
::lowers his rifle::
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
::looks around the TR::
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
:: Uses gauze to clear out some of the blood to see::
Host Enrico says:
<Gul_Saragat>: COM: CO: We managed to escape through guile and some trick the monster did not hear about. ::turns when spoken to:: Captain, I have to go. I will see you in five minutes.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Looks at Murphy.  Quietly::  CO: Our away teams are back aboard.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
CSO: Understood.  *XO*: Commander.  I've had an interesting discussion with a Gul... He claims that Ozymandias will capture and destroy us, but he was evasive with my direct questions.  It is a case of their words against his.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Looks at Savar, not envying him this situation.::
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
CTO: Drinks are on me when this is over, invite your whole team.
FCO_Ens_Korax says:
::Looks at the CMO and speaks softly in Klingon.:: CMO: Heghlu'meH QaQ jajvam......
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@*Ozymandias*: According to them, you are the enemy. When I asked you to defend yourself and help us you refused to answer.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
OPS: Gotcha Commander, now i suggest we secure these weapons and make for the bridge
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
CO: There is the thought, the Cardassians simply asked us to stop, and did not attack.
Host Enrico says:
<Polo>: CO: The Cardassians will be here in 5 minutes. I guess we will know then if they were right or wrong.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
CSO: The Cardassians are not close enough to attack.
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
CTO: I say we keep them and head to the Bridge anyway. ::winks and heads for the TL::

ACTION: The FCO flat lines WHen his Secondary heart finally gives up, Quietly HE PASSES AWAY.

CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
::nods and heads out the door for the TL::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Move back over to her station to monitor the area.::
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
TL: Bridge.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
::stands beside OPS::
Host Enrico says:
@<Ozymandias>: XO: Well now it is too late, too bad, I am sorry you will die too.
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
::heads for the Bridge with the rest of the away team::
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
:: Covers the FCO's body with a white sheet, and turns off the monitor giving a grrr as she does::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
:: Turns to the rear of the Bridge ::  Duty_TO: Tactical, bring our shields and weapons online.  Obtain all possible targets.  How many Cardassian vessels are there?
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
CO: Incoming fleet. Warp 9.99999.  Estimated arrival, 4.45 minutes.  Odds of our survival if this is an attack, 0%.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
*OPS*: Commander, how much work did you have to do?
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
MO Bree: Bree! Get this man to the a statis chamber.... We need this bed.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
::heads out of the TL and heads for tactical to assume his station::
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
CO: Captain there are 12 Galor class vessels
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
::Walks out onto the Bridge and takes over from Murphy, sets power levels to max for weapons, shields, engines and structural integrity, reduces power to non-essential systems and makes sure all stations report as ready for battle::
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
::watches as shields go up and weapons come online::
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
::arrives on the Bridge:: CO: Ozymandias is still in contact with me. He claims we are doomed.
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
CO: We were nearly finished, Captain.
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
:: Takes off her gloves and gets on to the next bed:: Self: Tirage, it’s the pits.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
CSO: I did not think Galor class vessels were able to go that fast.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
CSO: Never quote me the odds commander I just may take that bet on ::smiles and winks at her::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: quickly fills the XO in with data.::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
XO: We have claims on both sides, but nothing to back either side up.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
CO: In our time, they are not.  Remember, we are taking great amounts of time.  Though one would think they would have better ways of traveling by now.
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
::goes to Command and takes her place::
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
CO/XO: The Cardies are coming in hot. Weapons and shields are up and ready to rock n roll
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
*CO*: Tiernan to the bridge...
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
CTO: All things are possible... just not necessarily probable.
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
XO: Power and systems are all set for Battle Alert, all ship stations report at condition one and ready.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
CO: Captain, one possibility.  If they can damage us, and if this an attack, we could use the arc as a cover and from there, continue repairs.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
CO: Skipper we may not be the intended target
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
:: Moves to the next bed, and notice that the patients leg is barley attached::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
:: Less than pleased ::
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
XO: Shields are up and all weapons are on line.

ACTION: All of a sudden all the bridge officers are transported in the black ship' Main Engineering Room.
Host Enrico says:
@<Ozymandias>ALL: You can thank me later. Now please fix this ship.
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@::Looks to the Captain for orders::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
@:: blinks and almost frowns.::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
@Ozymandias: I demand something conclusive to back your words.  That's all I have from you or the Gul.  Words.  You have the power to move us at will, but not the Cardassians?  Beam them away if they are a threat.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@CO: Captain as much as it annoys me, the Cardies may be right
FCO_Ens_Korax says:
<MO Johnson> ::Stops MO Bree before moving the FCO and roars loudly with her head tilted back looking upward.::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
@Ozymandias: You can push us around, but not handle your own problems?  I doubt that.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
@:: quietly:: CO: If the Cardassians attack or vessel...  :: leaves the rest unsaid.::
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@ALL: I say we let the Cardies and old Oz here duke it out, then blow up whoever survives and find our own way home.
Host Enrico says:
@<Ozymandias>CO: Captain I cannot, this is something where you will have to let your instincts decide. You have 3 minutes then we will be attacked and destroyed. The Cardassians know my weak spots. And apparently yours too.
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@::looks to the CO::
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
:: With the help of another medic, they immobilize the leg and use a Neuroelectric suppresser to help with the pain::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
@Ozymandias: What are your week points?
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::stands beside the CSO::
Host Enrico says:
<Ens_Ross> *CMO*: Uhmm doctor, the bridge is deserted and the computer says you are in charge, what do I do?
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
MO Johnson: Time to mourn and roar later, I need that bed!
Host Enrico says:
@<Ozymandias> CSO: Two minutes Commander, do we really have time for that now?
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
@Ozymandias: We would have time if you stopped avoiding the questions.
FCO_Ens_Korax says:
<MO Johnson> CMO: Just honoring his traditions. It only took two seconds. ::Helps Bree move the fallen Klingon.::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
@ Ozymandias: Assuming we could fix things in two minutes?  Perhaps.
Host Enrico says:
@<Ozymandias>: 90 seconds.
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
*Ross*: Is the bridge safe? Can you find out where they went?
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@CO: Orders, Captain?
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::stands stoically beside the CSO, prepared for the worst but hoping for the best::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
@ :: Looks at the captain, she could not think of anything further to help.::  CO: Then perhaps we were not meant to alter time and what is, shall be.
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@CO: I believe he is being to pushy Captain. He has cause to be anxious but kidnapping us makes me trust him less.
Host Enrico says:
<Ross>*CMO*: No idea Ma'am. But there are 12 Cardassian ship headed straight for us. I'd say red alert.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
@:: Looks around at his crew::  All: Ozymandias has the ability to count down our fates, and to beam us at will, but cannot answer our questions or push around his enemies as willingly as he can us.
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
*Ross*: I'm on my way; get whatever crew you can spare to fill the rest of the positions!
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@CO: Or fix himself.
FCO_Ens_Korax says:
<MO Johnson> ::Begins tending to another wounded.:: CMO: A simple grrr is considered disrespectful, so I did what was right by his beliefs for him.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
@All: However, the Cardassians have not provided us a way to resolve this.  They claim it is all an illusion....
Host Enrico says:
@<Ozymandias> CO: Well too late now. Do you want to die on your ship?
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
@All: Resume the repairs.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
@:: listens::
Host Enrico says:
<Ross>: Aye Ma'am, will do.
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@::Moves to install the last of the conduits::
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
