USS Sharikahr: Mission Transcript #382
Sudden death never had so much of a meaning as it does right now. Sharikahr's captors, in a last ditch grasp at what they see as freedom, have thrown the Sharikahr on a collision course with Nova Arcadia.
Full impulse to destiny, or full impulse to destruction? Not as simple a choice as one might want to believe.

CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
# :: Quietly Sin flies the shuttle toward the Sharikahr. Her team had waited for the signal from the Minerva to head out.  It had been hard to sit and remain patient, knowing that the others would be in the thick of things, but there had been too many things to go wrong.  They were basically the last wave.::
TO_Ens_Carver says:
*Tacwide*: All units, this is Assault Team Omega, we have secured Engineering, but still don't have computer access.
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: working at the helm using all his prior computer skills to regain control of the ship not liking where it is headed::
TO_Ens_Carver says:
::deploys her team to cover all the access points to Engineering and digs in just in case of a counterattack::

ACTION: Helm control is easy to regain for the pilot; security almost seems to be a little on the minimalistic side on the bridge.
#Scene: As Sin's shuttle draws closer, several small craft can be seen visually departing from Sharikahr at various locations.

CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
# :: Keeping the ship in the Shari's shadows so that she showed up as a sensor ghost, she finally brings her in to one of the docking points that register as the shields being at 15%, nothing to the shuttle::

ACTION: Carver gets the all clear from teams beyond engineering.

FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: regaining control of the helm he set a course away from Nova Arcadia and tries to bring the ship to a stop.::
TO_Ens_Carver says:
*Command*: Command, this is Assault Team Omega, the ship is secured.
Teyol says:
# CSO:  I am picking up ships leaving the Sharikahr.

Info: Neither Gorger nor Savar respond to the call.

CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
# :: Any idea who is aboard them or their destination?
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: brings the ship to station holding and secures the helm;;
TO_Ens_Carver says:
COM: Minerva: Minerva, this is Assault Team Omega, we have secured the ship. Stand down attack and start sending the support personnel. Over.
Teyol says:
# CSO:  I am not reading any life signs.  They appear to be going in a random pattern.
TO_Ens_Carver says:
<Tactical_Medic> ::moves to give Gorger first aid until the medical personnel arrive::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
#Teyol:  See if you can track them.  We are approaching the ship, I am going to send a power surge through the area near the port... that should be enough to get us there.
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: starts checking to see if he can get some information from the internal sensors.::
Teyol says:
# :: Has the computer begin plotting the courses.::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
# :: Looks back at Charles, one of the engineers on her team and nods her head for him to begin.  Once he acknowledges her, she takes the shuttle to the edge of shielding and waits.::
Host MCO_Cmdr_Prisca says:
::a static-filled reply is returned to Carver:: COMM: Sharikahr: Need another... minutes to get launch... back online, Shari... standby.
Teyol says:
# CSO:  I am picking up no pattern at all.  They could simply be trying to evade the Sharikahr herself.

#Info: As the shuttle draws closer, Sharikahr comes to a full stop.

TO_Ens_Carver says:
COM: Minerva: Understood. Be advised we have no contact with Captain Savar, I am commencing search and rescue operations with my other teams. Out.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
# :: lifts a brow::  Teyol:  That does not seem very... positive.   ::matching course and speed, comes to a stop along the Sharikahr.::  Charles, hold off a moment.
TO_Ens_Carver says:
::Deploys the other Tactical personnel not in Engineering to sweep the ship to look for casualties and secure the ship stations::

ACTION: An alert sounds on the bridge tactical station as the shuttle comes to a stop alongside Sharikahr.

FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: checks the unconscious Captain to make sure he is still among the living::
Host JamesH says:
<TO_Ens_Nicoles> ::steps onto the bridge with his partner, and glances around... pauses at the figure in a commander's uniform and both men reach for their weapons:: 
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
# Teyol:  Inform Minerva of the escaping vessels.
Host JamesH says:
<TO_Ens_Nicoles> FCO: Right there. On the floor.
Teyol says:
# COMM:  Minerva:  Various small craft have left the Sharikahr, there appears, at this point, to be no specific destination.
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: sees the people enter the bridge and bring his phaser rifle to bear:: All; Just who are you?
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
# :: As nothing happens, she motions Charles to proceed.::

#ACTION: Minerva replies, but the static is almost more powerful than the content of the reply.

Teyol says:
# CSO:  I am unable to decipher there reply, at this point, I can only hope they received or message to be able to act upon it.
Host JamesH says:
<TO_Ens_Nicoles> ::shifts his own phaser rifle ever so slightly, his partner doing the same:: FCO: I'm gonna tell you again, soldier. On the floor. Now.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
# :: Patiently they wait for Charles to succeed, hoping the ship itself does not head out again and yet concerned that it has come to a stop.::
Teyol says:
# CSO:  It is possible they have succeeded and retaken the ship.
TO_Ens_Carver says:
<Tactical_Medic> ::continues to work on Gorger, then on any other wounded members of the assault force::
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
TO: In case you haven't looked I out rank you and if you don't want to make my partner mad when he gets here you will lower your weapons.

ACTION: Tactical alerts go off on the bridge as Sharikahr's hull is breached. Both men tense as the alarms sound.

CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
# Teyol: The captain would have contacted us... or one of the other team leaders.
Teyol says:
# CSO:  If they are alive.
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
TO: you want to take care of that we don't need any one else sneaking up on us.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
#:: Simply shakes her head and then as Charles informs them they can go through, she docks the ship and has her team quickly move out.::
Host JamesH says:
<TO_Ens_Nicoles> ::shrugs, then moves to examine the console while his partner keeps the FCO in his sights::
Teyol says:
# :: Without a word, he takes point and begins the procedures of heading through the hatch followed by the others.::
Host TO_Ens_Nicoles says:
::spying Savar on the deck, he motions to his partner to examine him::
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
TO: Just for you information I am Cmdr Twelk. I have just been assigned to the Sharikahri as her FCO.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
# :: As the sound of hissing, informing them air and pressure are normal, they all go through, pausing at each point as the move into a better defended location.::
Host TO_Ens_Nicoles says:
<TO_Ens_Williams> ::glares at this new commander, and for about half a second contemplates shooting him, then moves to check on Savar::
Teyol says:
# :: Pausing::  CSO:  The ship is quiet.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
# Teyol:  Perhaps we did succeed and those were the deserters.
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
Williams: You will find that the Captain is still alive just in bad shape. I think once he saw me it scared him unconscious thinking that I might be to cut out some vital organ and eat it. :: Grins::
Host TO_Ens_Nicoles says:
::taps his badge as he watches the security scanners:: *Carver*: Tac com, team delta. Bridge is secure. Commanding officer is down, we have intruders.
CIV_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::looks over at Twelk:: FCO: So what you think of our new digs?
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Using the pre-set frequency for Sharikahr crew only:: *Sharikahr crew*:  This is Commander So'tsoh.  Status?
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CIV: Except for these 2 trying to shoot us I guess they will do.
TO_Ens_Carver says:
*CSO*: Ship is secured Commander. I have one team on the Bridge, and I am holding Engineering. Suggest you head to the Bridge to sort things out, over.
CIV_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::smiles::
TO_Ens_Carver says:
*Nicoles*: See if you can ID them, and get back to me. The CSO just came aboard and should be heading your way.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
*TO*:  Excellent.  Inform the bridge we are on our way.  I have no desire to be shot at.
TO_Ens_Carver says:
*CSO*: They have been informed Commander. Welcome aboard.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
Teyol:  It looks like you will have to real in that frustration you wanted to let free.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
*TO*:  Thank you.  Is the captain on the bridge?
Host TO_Ens_Nicoles says:
*Carver*: One of them claims to be Sharikahr's new pilot. No idea what the other one's story is.
Teyol says:
:: Lifts a brow at his cousin at the teasing insult but says nothing as he and the others head out for the bridge.::
CIV_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::takes out a cigar:: FCO: Wonder if they have steak on this rust bucket?
TO_Ens_Carver says:
*CSO*: He is, but the team up there says he is down. We need medical personnel here ASAP. Gorger is also down but stable, but all I have is a medic.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
*TO*:  I have one on my team as originally planned.  So'tsoh out.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Steps into the lift with the others and orders it to the bridge.::
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CIV: Couldn’t say for sure friend however I think the captain over there thought I was here to eat one of his vital organs. Being that he passed out once he got a look at me.
Teyol says:
:: Not taking chances, motions the team to the sides of the turbo lift and with his weapon ready but at a non-threatening pose, he waits for the doors to open.::
CIV_Cmdr_McQueen says:
FCO: Well don’t worry I think you’re cute and fuzzy
CIV_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::looks up at the CSO and smiles:: FCO: things just looked up

ACTION: It takes slightly longer than usual, but the doors to the turbo lift do open onto the bridge, revealing 2 men in tactical gold, and two very unfamiliar faces.

CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Her phaser at the ready, she nods to her cousin::
Teyol says:
:: Steps off the lift and to the side.::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Follows her cousin and moves to the other side with the rest of her team filling in.::
Host TO_Ens_Nicoles says:
::glances up from his console, and notices those exiting the lift:: CSO: Commander. ::snaps a quick salute, per protocol::
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: nods towards the TL:: CIV: Get a load of these guys.
CIV_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::smiles:: FCO: Man they got me shaking in my boots
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Her eyes take in the bridge, as well as the captain.  She motions for the medic to go to him and then turns curiously to the strangers, returning the salute.::  TO:  At ease.
TO_Ens_Carver says:
::Checks in with her teams sweeping the ship and gets everything organized::
Host TO_Ens_Nicoles says:
::relaxes, and returns to monitoring his station::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
All:  I am Commander So'tsoh, ships science officer and second officer.  You are?
Teyol says:
:: Moves toward science::
CIV_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CSO: Let me do the intro`s my dear commander. This furry and charming lad is commander Twelk, and I am Commander McQueen late of the USS Delphyne and cousin to young Adam
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CIV: You tell them I am getting tired of explaining myself.
CIV_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CSO; We specialize in Drinking, chaos, mayhem and general mischief

ACTION: Williams keeps his weapon trained on both newcomers. He doesn't appear to be all that interested in the CIV's, albeit flashing, introductions.

FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CSO: And getting the job done no matter what it is.
CIV_Cmdr_McQueen says:
FCO: Well yeah there is that part too

ACTION: The operations station comes to life - an incoming signal, albeit extremely weak.

CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Lifts a brow at the comment of Adam as well as the mayhem.::  CIV:  I appreciate a job well done.  Tell me about Adam, how is he doing?
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: moves to the OPS station and tries to clear up the incoming signal::
CIV_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CSO: He was squirming last time we talked. He`s 2nd officer now
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
CIV:  Squirming?  And how is his wife?
CIV_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::splutters:: CSO: Wife??? No offense commander but whatever you did that boy is smitten. Won’t even look at another Sheila
TO_Ens_Carver says:
::Orders the Medic and another TO to take Gorger to Sickbay::
Teyol says:
CSO:  I have short range only.  Area is clear other then the shuttles heading out.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Nods toward Williams to put his weapon down.::  CIV:  I look forward to hearing how you came aboard.  Meanwhile, we need to finish securing the ship.
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CSO: Cmdr if you are done with introductions we have a weak signal coming from I believe Governor McKay's ship. I will put what I have on screen. ::places the COM on screen::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
TO:  Do we have the culprits in hand or are they the ones escaping?
Host JamesH says:
<Nicoles> CSO: Most of them managed to escape, commander. But... I believe our team in engineering is babysitting a few.
CIV_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::sticks the cigar in his mouth and smiles moving slightly back to lean on a console::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
TO:  If the brig is secure, have them taken there.  If they try anything, in this case, it would be a shoot first and we will ask questions later.
TO_Ens_Carver says:
::Moves around and ensures the rebels are in restraints and separated from each other, and all in sight from several angles::

ACTION: A static-filled image appears on the view screen. Very slowly, it begins to clear itself up ever so slightly.

Teyol says:
<MO Talek> CSO:  The captain is badly bruised with internal fractures.  No internal bleeding.  Other then being unconscious there is nothing life threatening.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
MO:  Take who you need and get him to medical.
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: makes a  few adjustment to try and clear up the screen::
Host Gov_Mckay says:
<TO_Ens_Nicoles> ::nods, and relays the order to Carver to transport the prisoners to the brig and secure them there::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
FCO:  Can you clear the screen?
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CSO: Work in it Cmdr but the signal is quite weak.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
TO:  Where is our CEO?
Host Gov_Mckay says:
::a very blurred, and becoming slightly less blurred Mckay appears on screen. He looks perhaps slightly more tired than usual... or perhaps that's simply the result of the interference:: COMM: Sharikahr: I heard... were... to get your... back, commander.
CIV_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::moves to an auxiliary Tactical console::
TO_Ens_Carver says:
::Has half the team start transferring the prisoners to the Brig one at a time while the other half of the team guards the rest::
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CIV: That and this rust bucket is on the brink of falling apart at the seams. :: grins::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
COMM: McKay:  Governor, can you please repeat?
CIV_Cmdr_McQueen says:
FCO: We’ve worked with worse, a lot worse
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CIV: Not much friend.
CIV_Cmdr_McQueen says:
:: begins to work on the sensors::
Host Gov_Mckay says:
COMM: Sharikahr: CSO: I... you were able to get your ship back. Hopeful... cost in lives was not too high.
CIV_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CSO: We have SRS for now
Host Gov_Mckay says:
<TO_Ens_Nicoles> CSO: Medical orders to stay back, commander. Something about just coming out of a coma, I heard...?
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
COMM: McKay:  Unknown at this time.  We will keep you informed.  There were various small craft that escaped the Sharikahr.  At this point, we are not in any condition to track them down, however, we do have them still on sensors.
Host Gov_Mckay says:
::his signal clears up a little more:: COMM: Sharikahr: CSO: Yes, I had heard as much from the Minerva's commander. Tell me, were you able... apprehend those responsible?
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Turns toward the Nicoles and as she processes what was said, she almost smiled::  TO: I am glad to hear she is coming out of her coma.  As usual, her skills are greatly needed.
CIV_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::begins to scan around the ship::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
CIV:  Can you get me ships status.
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: chuckles:: CIV: In very bad need of repair what do you think?
CIV_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CSO: Gimme a few seconds commander ::begins to bring up the ships status::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
*TO Carver*:  Ensign, this is So'tsoh.  Did we apprehend those responsible?
CIV_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::grins:: FCO: think they`ll give us a nice new shiny Prometheus class?
TO_Ens_Carver says:
*CSO*: I have 7 Tangos on the deck and being hauled to the Brig as we speak Ma'am.
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CIV: Not likely it  will be like being on the Del we will just have to keep fixing this one up.
CIV_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CSO: Shields at 15%, weapons are at 100%, warp drive is offline. Secondary power failures across the board and off course there`s that big hole in the hull you made
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
*TO*:  If one of those are the leaders, bring them to the bridge.
CIV_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CSO: Oh and the coffee pot got destroyed as well ::smiles::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
COMM: McKay:  We have some of those responsible, however, it is uncertain yet how many were involved.
CIV_Cmdr_McQueen says:
FCO: Do you think our still made it in one piece?
TO_Ens_Carver says:
*CSO*: So far as I know the enemy leaders were on the Bridge Ma'am, all we bagged were the lackeys manning Engineering.
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CSO: Best case we can limp into a repair station if it is to far away.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
Charles:  Lieutenant, I need you in engineering.  Get the ships engines online.  Take whomever you need to assist.  I want the shields up next.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
CIV:  It is just as well I do not drink coffee.
Host Gov_Mckay says:
COMM: Sharikahr: CSO: Very well, commander. My ship is en route to your location. We'll bring you back to Nova Arcadia for proper repairs.
CIV_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::smiles:: CSO: And Adam said you had a sense of humor
Host Gov_Mckay says:
COMM: Sharikahr: CSO: And... I believe someone owes you an explanation Ma’am.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Looks curiously around the bridge for the enemies.::  TO:  The leaders are...?
Host Gov_Mckay says:
<TO_Ens_Nicoles> CSO: ... Heading in any one of several directions, man.
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CSO: More than likely beat fleeting it away from here as fast as they can.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
COMM: McKay: The captain is currently unconscious.  Once he is awake, I will look forward to discovering the answers.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
CIV:  It is all a myth.
CIV_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::smiles:: CSO: Why Commander was that an attempt at humor?
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
FCO:  Prepare the ship for return to Nova Arcadia.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Lifts a brow::  CIV:  Not at all, simply stating a fact.
Host Gov_Mckay says:
COMM: Sharikahr: CSO: Understood, commander. I'll let Toroth know to expect one or both of you on our journey back home.
Teyol says:
:: Simply shakes his head.::
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CSO: Aye Cmdr :: moves to the helm and sets a course toward Nova Arcadia:: Ready when  you are.

ACTION: Sensors come to life, alerting the bridge to the approach of governor Mc kay's vessel.

CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
COMM:  McKay:  It would appear those involved were those who escaped in the small crafts.  If possible,  apprehend them first.
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CSO: Their here Cmdr.
CIV_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CSO: Guests approaching
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
CIV:  Identification?
Teyol says:
:: forwards McKay the original coordinates of the escaping vessels.::
CIV_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CSO: The Gunvnor’s vessel commander ::uses cockney accent::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
CIV:  Prepare a welcome for them.
CIV_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CSO: Would you like balloons and cupcakes set out for them?
Host Gov_Mckay says:
COMM: Sharikahr: I'm having the coordinates relayed to planetary authorities, Sharikahr. The primary mission of this ship right now is your safe escort back to Nova Arcadia. ::cracks a small smile:: It would do this colony no good to see its only line of defense targeted again.
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: chuckles as he hears mc Queens comments::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
CIV: Unnecessary.
CIV_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::smiles:: FCO: Oh she is good
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
COMM: McKay: Acknowledged.
CIV_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::sends an escort to bring the Governor up to the bridge::
Teyol says:
:: Begins working on sensors.::

ACTION: The colonial vessel moves alongside Sharikahr, and both prepare to head back to Nova Arcadia. There are still many a question to be answered, and at least 7 trials to be held. But the crisis has, for the moment at least, passed.
