USS Sharikahr Mission #345
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.
The USS Sharikahr is scores of light years beyond the Federation borders leading and her crew is escorting a huge colonial expedition to the planet called Nova Arcadia.
This already difficult task is became tragically hard when numerous acts of sabotage are putting in jeopardy the safety of the fleet and, to make things worse a plague of Anchilles Fever is threatening to harvest many of the colonists' lives.
In the meanwhile the Sharikahr and the other Starfleet ship assigned as escort are doing all they can to save lives and to save the expedition.
All clues are leading toward the Santa Fe, one of huge colonists transports of the Trailblazer class. Are the saboteurs and the people behind the plague living among the 5,000 colonists on that ship?

ACEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@::On the Bridge of the Santa Fe, making sure the shuttle bays are sealed tight, and the transporters are offline so the ship is locked down and secured. Also at the Engineering station looking for the cause of the strange signature that is leading the Breen to the fleet::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
:: Moves from the science station back to the auxiliary display near the master systems display at the rear of the Bridge, observing the position of the fleet ::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
<OPS_Lt_Varn> CO: Captain?  McKay.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
:: Silently wonders why Mister Varn isn't monitoring the night shift ::  OPS: On screen.  :: Steps down into the command area ::  COM: McKay: Governor.
XO_Cmdr_Arinoch says:
@::On the Bridge of the Santa Fe, at the Science Station working with a Science officer on enhancing the internal sensors.
Host Enrico says:
<McKay>: COM: CO: We are proceeding to lock every transporter on the fleet. But is it that necessary? And for how long will it last?
ACEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@XO: I found what is making the signal. There is a beacon attached to the ship that is working in concert with the warp field to transmit the signal. You want to to go out and get rid of it?
XO_Cmdr_Arinoch says:
@ACEO: I'll go, have a security team meet me on the way.
ACEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@XO: It's on the outside of the ship, Boss. We'll have to EVA.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
COM: McKay: By not allowing any movement between the vessels, it prevents our suspect from escaping, Governor.  And, no, I'm not certain how long.  Do you trust your ship captains, or could they be abetting the situation?
ACEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@XO: I'll take care of it. It's in my field of expertise. You'll need the Goon Squad to help you look for Bundy.
Host Enrico says:
<McKay>Com: CO: I do trust them....I do not think they will do anything rash...but if the situation does get worse I am not sure they can keep all the passengers from protesting.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
COM: McKay: Their assistance would be most helpful in reducing the time necessary.  The crews may have knowledge of where Engineer Bundy is now.
XO_Cmdr_Arinoch says:
@ACEO: Good idea Commander.
ACEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@XO: Did you want me to salvage it as evidence or just wipe it out?
XO_Cmdr_Arinoch says:
@ACEO: Salvage it if it is not dangerous to do so.
Host Enrico says:
<McKay> COM: CO: Any news from the Santa Fe, did you search his quarters?
ACEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@XO: If I was doing something like this I'd put anti-handling devices on it, and I'll have to take care of those before I remove it anyway. We'll also need to take the ships out of warp... going EVA at warp isn't recommended.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
COM: McKay: My first officer and several of my senior staff are present on the vessel, but they have not reported anything yet.
Host Enrico says:
<McKay>: COM: CO: Ok, please keep me updated. I think we will have to prepare a pep talk for the whole fleet. Some colonists are pretty enraged.
XO_Cmdr_Arinoch says:
@ACEO: I'll inform the CO.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
:: Nods solemnly ::  COM: McKay: I regret such actions.  If you have alternatives...
ACEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@XO: I'll be in the shuttle bay prepping my shuttle and my gear. Watch your back until the Security arrives. If they are crazy enough to let a plague loose they aren't above murder.
Host Enrico says:
<McKay>: COM: CO: What would you suggest?
XO_Cmdr_Arinoch says:
@ACEO: Of course.
ACEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@::Heads for the turbo lift and takes it to the shuttle bay::
XO_Cmdr_Arinoch says:
@*CO*: Captain we've narrowed down the location of the beacon. I need your permission to take the Santa Fe out of warp.
Host Enrico says:
@<Master Glotoff>: Read a message on his command screen and frowns then walks closer to the XO and whispers :: XO: I am afraid I have bad news, please join me in my ready room.
ACEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@::Does a checkout of her EV suit and then a preflight check of the shuttle systems::
ACEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@*XO*: Systems are checked out, I'm ready to depart. ::putting on her EV suit as she speaks::
XO_Cmdr_Arinoch says:
@Glotoff: Certainly. 
@*ACEO*: It will be a minute. I need the CO to let me know if it's all right to take the ship out of warp.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
:: Ponders for a moment ::  COM: McKay/XO: If we assume that Bundy is still on the Santa Fe, and we allow it to drop from warp... it would essentially isolate it from the rest of the fleet, and we could drop the security restrictions.  But if he's not there...
ACEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@*XO*: Understood, standing by.
Host Enrico says:
@<Master Glotoff>:: puts his hands behind his back and waits patiently seeing the XO busy with other tasks::
XO_Cmdr_Arinoch says:
*CO*: Keep the security restrictions in place regardless. That way we have him either way.
XO_Cmdr_Arinoch says:
Glotoff: I am sorry. I'll be with you in a minute.
Host Enrico says:
<Master_Glotoff>: XO: No problem. A minute is not going to change things.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
COM: McKay: I trust the recommendations of my first officer.  *XO*: Confirmed.  Maneuver the Santa Fe free of the convoy and drop from warp.  We'll signal the fleet to drop speed so it can catch up later.
XO_Cmdr_Arinoch says:
*CO*: Will do sir. I'll inform you if the situation changes.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
:: Issues orders to the TIC to pass along the message to lower speed and confirm the Santa Fe's movements ::
Host Enrico says:
<McKay>: COM: Savar: Understood captain. I want to send a fleet wide communication by tomorrow morning at 8:00 please keep me updated with your findings.
XO_Cmdr_Arinoch says:
@Glotoff: I need you to inform your crew that we will be maneuvering out of the fleet and dropping out of warp.
Host Enrico says:
@<Glotoff>: XO:I will take care of that immediately. Once we are at full stop thought I have some unpleasant news I have to share. ::turns around and orders the helm to stop the ship.

@ACTION: Suddenly the streaks of lights on the main viewer are changed with a fixed view of a sky full of stars. The slight vibration given by warp engines disappears and the ship seems floating moved only by inertia.

Host Enrico says:
@<Glotoff> XO: Ship is out of warp Commander.
XO_Cmdr_Arinoch says:
*ACEO*: We are out of warp Commander. You may proceed when ready. Good hunting and keep me informed.
ACEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@*XO*: On my way... I'll give you a SITREP once I get on scene and assess the situation. ::launches the shuttle and heads for the beacon, sensors on full as I go::
XO_Cmdr_Arinoch says:
@Glotoff: We may speak whenever you are ready.
Host Enrico says:
@<Glotoff> XO: Please follow me:: Leads the XO in his ready room::
ACEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@*XO*: I found the beacon. It's on the front of the left nacelle near the Bussard collectors. This is going to be dicey work, I'm going to have to be delicate so I don't damage the nacelle.
XO_Cmdr_Arinoch says:
::follows, surreptitiously checking the phaser at her hip...just in case::
Host Enrico says:
@<Glotoff>::raises an eyebrow at the XO's gesture:: XO: I am afraid to tell you this ship has been contaminated. The infirmary just communicated me they have 3 patients there that are showing symptoms of the fever.
ACEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@::Uses the shuttle thrusters to approach the location and park near the front of the left nacelle::
XO_Cmdr_Arinoch says:
@Glotoff: Meaning that this ship must be quarantined even after we rejoin the fleet.
Host Enrico says:
@<Glotoff>XO: Or unless someone finds a way to screen a patient blood for infection.
ACEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@::Depresses the shuttle, puts on her maneuver pack and attaches her safety line to the shuttle, and starts for the location on the nacelle, taking her toolkit with her::

@ACTION: The CEO gets closer to the huge nacelle until her boots make contact with the hull and magnetize.

XO_Cmdr_Arinoch says:
@Glotoff: Order Sick Bay to begin full containment procedures and make an announcement letting everyone who has any of the symptoms, however slight, to report there immediately.
ACEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@::Uses her Special Forces and Explosive Ordnance Disposal training to check the area for booby traps or other hazards and then begins to remove the outer hull plate on the nacelle to get at the beacon itself::
Host Enrico says:
@<Glotoff>XO: Will do. Hopefully it is not too late. ::turns around and exits and starts giving orders::
Host Enrico says:
@ACTION: The outer hull plate is removed revealing the surface of the subspace beacon. The beacon is still intact and transmitting.
XO_Cmdr_Arinoch says:
@*CO/ACEO*: I have some bad news. Anchilles Fever has been detected aboard this vessel.
ACEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@*XO*: I'd appreciate it if you could have the Captain power down the nacelle before I start working on it, I'd hate to get some shocking news out here.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
*XO*: I have to admit that is not surprising.  The first case surfaced on the Santa Fe.... we will have to quarantine the vessel.
XO_Cmdr_Arinoch says:
@Glotoff: Have your engineering team power confirm that the nacelle is powered down.
ACEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@::Confirms the nacelle is powered down before beginning to disconnect and remove the beacon::
XO_Cmdr_Arinoch says:
@*CO*: I understand sir.
ACEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@::Starts to disconnect the beacon::
