USS Tal-War - SD 10411.20
Host Gilles says:
The adopted crew of the Mayflower are attempting to land the damaged craft while keeping what is left of their cargo from the hands of Captain John Smith... or anyone else for that matter.

CSO_LtJG_Semaj says:
:: At Sci 1 on the bridge of the Mayflower::
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
:: slips into the helm seat as she relieves the pilot there who seems to be ill ::
Host XO_Jameson says:
::Is standing in the command circle of the Mayflower::
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
::at his improvised Tactical station on the bridge of the mayflower::
CSO_LtJG_Semaj says:
:: Runs scans and tries to see where the "special cargo" can be stored so no one can get to it::
Host XO_Jameson says:
::Has still not had very much sleep, and feels a little unstable standing::
Host XO_Jameson says:
FCO: Report?
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
XO: Commander, this is going to be a rough landing. I suggest you all put your seatbelts on. Helm is not responding as usual, a bit sluggish.
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
::Routes all available shield power to the forward shields::
Host XO_Jameson says:
::Raises an eyebrow, indicating behind her::  FCO: I don't have a seat, let alone a belt!
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
XO: We're just about to enter the atmosphere.
Host Gilles says:
ACTION: As the vessel begins to enter the atmosphere the shields begin to glow red... first a light colored tint... then darker.
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
::braces on his temporary console::
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
:: taps the helm controls trying to maintain control ::
Host XO_Jameson says:
::Holds onto a piece of bridge that looks slightly more stable than the rest::
CSO_LtJG_Semaj says:
:: Feels the ship start shaking as it enters the atmosphere and knows it will only get worse::
Host Gilles says:
ACTION: The temperature rises on the bridge.... it is now up to 30C - 92F
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
CSO: I've reinforced the forward shields as much as I can, can you get me any more power?
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
All: Hang on to something, bumpy ride ahead!
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
::sweats profusely::
Host XO_Jameson says:
::wipes her forehead as beads of sweat start to pop up::
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
CSO: Lt. I suggest you find us a place to land and fast!
Host XO_Jameson says:
::Nods in agreement with the FCO::
Host Gilles says:
<Computer> Warning entry angle incorrect, structural integry will be comprimised if current angle is maintained.
CSO_LtJG_Semaj says:
CTO: We have shut down all non essential areas already and rerouted it to you and helm.  I don't see anywhere else to get power from except maybe life support but that is shaky anyhow.
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
::Looks to the XO:: XO: Commander?
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
:: maneuvers the Mayflower to correct the angle error :: Self: Drat!
CSO_LtJG_Semaj says:
FCO: Working on that and I should have the final coordinates for you in a second or two.
Host XO_Jameson says:
CSO: How long would it be down?
Host Gilles says:
ACTION: The temperature rises again on the bridge.... it is now up to 35C - 102F
Host XO_Jameson says:
FCO: Should i start worrying Ensign?
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
::adjusts his collar and goes back to tapping at his console::
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
:: turns for a moment to look at the XO:: XO: Just a tad ma'am, just a tad.
Host XO_Jameson says:
FCO: You can correct your slight error before we become barbequed?
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
:: checks on the thruster readings ::
CSO_LtJG_Semaj says:
XO: Life support would have to be shut completely down and directing the power to tactical for shields.  We should be on the planet surface before it gets too bad on the ship.
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
XO: Already done Commander.
CSO_LtJG_Semaj says:
:: Sends a set of coords to the FCO for a reasonable landing spot::
Host XO_Jameson says:
CSO: We cannot shut it off completely.  we'd lose gravity.  we can shut it mostly. it allows us two hours after it has been turned off.  Do it, but get us down there
Host Gilles says:
ACTION: The temperature rises again on the bridge.... it is now up to 40C - 112F
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
CSO: You sure about these? :: frowns at the numbers ::
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
::checks on hull integrity::
Host XO_Jameson says:
::Can feel the rise in temperature, and undoes her jacket::  FCO: Ensign?  You need assistance with this?
CSO_LtJG_Semaj says:
:: Nods to the XO and begins shutting down most of life support:: FCO: As sure as I can be with this equipment.
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
XO: No ma'am, just double checking.
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
:: looks up at the viewscreen :: Self: Oh nice....
Host Gilles says:
ACTION: The damaged nacelle breaks completely off the vessel and the Mayflower begins to spin.
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
::takes the extra power and feeds it straight to the Forward shields::
Host XO_Jameson says:
ALL: Get yourself comfortable with the temperature.  Don't worry about uniform regulation. Just do what you need to do your work
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
::wobbles a bit::
CSO_LtJG_Semaj says:
:: Feels comfortable for the first time since entering SF::
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
:: tugs at her collar :: XO: Coming up on the coordinates in about fifteen minutes.
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
::removes his jacket and taps on his console::
Host XO_Jameson says:
CSO: Can the ship last at this temperature for 15minutes?
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
:: tries to slow their descent by adjusting what's left of the thruster control ::
Host XO_Jameson says:
::Tries not to look at the viewscreen, as it's making her slightly dizzy, which doesn't help with the lack of sleep and heat::
CSO_LtJG_Semaj says:
XO: I would like to say yes but at this point with all the damage it has taken I am not sure.
Host XO_Jameson says:
::Grins wryly::  CSO: Thanks for the vote of confidence!
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
XO: Commander, we've lost the nacelle completely now.
CSO_LtJG_Semaj says:
XO: I did not know this was a subject for an election.
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
::gets a flash of an idea, shakes his head and gets back to work::
Host XO_Jameson says:
FCO: Compensate.
Host Gilles says:
ACTION: The temperature rises again on the bridge.... it is now up to 45C - 122F
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
XO: I can't control the spin. :: grimaces :: Trying ma'am.
Host XO_Jameson says:
::Smiles::  CSO: I truly hope it isn't
Host XO_Jameson says:
FCO: What do you need?
CSO_LtJG_Semaj says:
All: Most illogical
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
:: taps furiously at the helm panel cursing under her breath ::
Host Gilles says:
ACTION: The FCO somehow succeeds in stabling the spin
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
XO: Not sure at this point Commander, but what if we blow the dampeners?
Host XO_Jameson says:
CSO: Well, if you can logic us out of this at the moment, we wouldn't complain
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
::wobbles again::
Host XO_Jameson says:
ALL: Any suggestions at this point would be appreciated!
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
XO: I have an Idea, I've only tried it in a simulation but it's an idea
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
All: I've managed to stablize us for the moment, but I don't know how long that's going to hold.
Host XO_Jameson says:
CTO: I'm listening
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
XO: It's gonna sound like I've gone completely mad Commander
Host XO_Jameson says:
CTO: Mad is better than dead
CSO_LtJG_Semaj says:
XO: I think we could cool it down in here if we just flood the sub decking with freon, a gas used in the late 20th century earth in cooling devices of the day.
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
XO: If Ensign Flight can point us at the biggest cliff face she can find then transfer all power to the shields and the deflector I can bounce a resonance beam off the cliff directly onto our forward shields which should slow us down enough to land at least in one piece.
Host XO_Jameson says:
CSO: Do it.  evac the sub decking
Host XO_Jameson says:
CTO: What is your certainty that this will work?
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
XO: On a ship this size, 80% sure but it's better than nothing and with all due respect Ma'am we're short of time.
CSO_LtJG_Semaj says:
:: Transmits the evacuation signal to the sub deck and then begins replicating freon and pumping it into the subdecking::
Host XO_Jameson says:
::Nods::  CTO: 80% is respectable, more so than sitting here waiting to die.  Work with FCO.
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
:: continues to try and level out the ship and head to the landing area ::
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
FCO: You see any big walls coming up?
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
CTO: Searching now.
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
CTO: Nothing big enough on our current flight path.
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
FCO: Find one and point us straight at it.
Host Gilles says:
ACTION: The Mayflower leaves the atmosphere and the temperature finally begins to drop.
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
CTO: None to find......but there is open water ahead.
Host XO_Jameson says:
::Sighs, as she starts feeling very slightly cooler, and can feel the slight relief in the rest of the crew::
CSO_LtJG_Semaj says:
XO: I have a problem with this Ma'am.  I had to deactivate the replicators to boost the shields.  We are not able to put power into them without taking from helm or shields.
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
FCO: That'll have to do, how big is it?
Host XO_Jameson says:
CSO: We will have to delay your idea then Lt.  The temperature is beginning to drop.  Can you see what the damage report currently is?
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
::angles the forward shields down to cover the forward underside of the hull::
Host Gilles says:
ACTION: A large body of water is now visible on the viewscreen
CSO_LtJG_Semaj says:
:: Tries to call up a preliminary damage report::
Host XO_Jameson says:
Self: Should we prepare to have to swim?
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
:: wipes a stray lock of hair away :: CTO: Looks like a good size. :: turns and smiles at him :: We can attempt a landing there........like we have any choice.
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
FCO: I want you to aim to touch down only a few meters from the closest edge of the water, 10 degree up angle and hit reverse thrust as soon as we hit.
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
XO: Commander, I can keep us fairly level to attempt a landing here, but it's going to be very rough.
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
CTO: Acknowledged.
Host XO_Jameson says:
FCO: Get us comfortable enough to start repairs ensign
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
ALL: Brace for impact.  This is gonna hurt.
CSO_LtJG_Semaj says:
XO: Negative on the damage report.  Power for that is also diverted.  We really don't have much working right now, but we might be able to get power to it by Tuesday.
Host XO_Jameson says:
::moves from a standing position to crouching, and holding onto the now warm bridge support::
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
:: aims the ship at the edge of the water, her finger over the thruster control :: All: 1000 meters and dropping.
Host XO_Jameson says:
::Raises an eyebrow::  CSO: Was that a joke?  I'm impressed!
Host XO_Jameson says:
::Mutters to herself::  CSO: I didn't think you had it in you
CSO_LtJG_Semaj says:
:: Tries to sound incredulous:: XO: Really, we Vulcans do not joke.
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
All: Five hundred......
CSO_LtJG_Semaj says:
:: Prepares for the impact::
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
All: Hang on......100......
Host Gilles says:
ACTION: The Mayflower bounces on the water and skips like a rock and rises in the air once again.
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
::hits his console hard, draws as big a breath as he can muster and shouts:: FCO: REVERSE! NOW!
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
:: hits the reverse thrusters hard :: CTO: Got it!
Host XO_Jameson says:
::As she jolts with the landing::  CSO: I think you and I are going to get along.....
Host Gilles says:
ACTION: As the Mayflower rises up... land can be seen getting closer.... FAST.
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
::slowly bleeds more power from shields to reverse thrusters::
CSO_LtJG_Semaj says:
:: Bounces with the jostling of the ship:: XO: I would hope so.
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
:: hangs on to the side of the console tightly ::
Host Gilles says:
ACTION: The Mayflower bounces once again on the water and rises again... this time the CTO flies from one end of the bridge to the other landing on his shoulder which makes a sickening SNAP.
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
ALL: OOF!
Host XO_Jameson says:
::Crawls carefully across the bridge, to reach the CTO::
Host XO_Jameson says:
FCO: Keep trying to control us
Host Gilles says:
ACTION: The CTO's right arm hangs uselessly on his side.
Host XO_Jameson says:
CSO: Help Flight.  I'll deal with MacAllister
CSO_LtJG_Semaj says:
Aloud: Ensign!
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
XO: Thruster control is barely functional.
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
::writhes in agony and shouts as loud as he can:: XO: How close are we to the shore?
CSO_LtJG_Semaj says:
XO: Aye  FCO: What is the power level to the thrusters?
Host XO_Jameson says:
FCO: Do what you can.  Improvise!
Host Gilles says:
ACTION: The Mayflower bounces once again on the water... this time the XO flies backswards and snaps her right leg on the bulkhead.
Host XO_Jameson says:
::Grabs a medkit from under one of the nondestroyed chairs before she flies::
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
XO: COMMANDER!
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
::tries to sit up:: FCO: How close?
Host XO_Jameson says:
::Her head swims as she tries to compartmentalise the pain she's feeling in her leg::
Host XO_Jameson says:
::Takes a deep breath to control the queaseyness::
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
CSO: Power is at......minimum...not sure if we have enough to hold on.
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
CTO: Too close.......
Host XO_Jameson says:
CTO: I'll be fine.  Can you still work?  Can you assist the others.  We need to stop else a broken limb or two will be the least of our worries
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
::doesn't wait for an answer:: CSO: Lieutenant! Transfer ALL power to the active forward shielding and hit the deck!
Host Gilles says:
ACTION: The Mayflower smashes on the beach... no one remains in place... everyone flying from one end of the bridge to the next.
Host XO_Jameson says:
::Looks down at her own leg and the awkward angle it lays in makes her head spin again.::
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
::hits the wall with a thud:: ALL: OOFFF!
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
:: flies over the flight console and into the viewscreen with a definite "thud" ::
Host Gilles says:
ACTION: The CSO's face is smashed on a bulkhead... his nose is broken and has 2 black <Black... green.... whatever> eyes.
CSO_LtJG_Semaj says:
XO: Maintain your posi...::flies across the bridge and hits the deck hard::  All: OOF!
Host XO_Jameson says:
::Cannot stop herself yelling as she lands on her broken leg again, but still has the medkit clutched to her chest::
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
:: tries to scramble back to her chair ::
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
::Grapples on the nearest console and transfers ALL remaining power to the shields before falling to the floor holding his dislocated shoulder::
Host Gilles says:
ACTION: The ship remains motionless.
Host XO_Jameson says:
::While still in pain, she adjusts her leg so that it lays in the proper position infront of get, despite the pain it causes, making her gasp loudly::
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
:: pulls herself up into her seat and looks at the panel ::
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
::can't feel any motion:: FCO: Status?
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
All: We've stopped!
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
XO: Commander?
Host XO_Jameson says:
::Finally loosens her grip on the medkit, and opens it gingerly::
CSO_LtJG_Semaj says:
:: Tries to get over to the XO and look at her leg:: XO: I was the CMO on the Claymore.  Relax and I will get you together.
Host XO_Jameson says:
CTO: I've been through worse
Host XO_Jameson says:
::Smile wanly at Semaj, and passes him the open medkit::
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
FCO: Ensign? Are you hurt?
Host XO_Jameson says:
CSO: How did you manage for barely get a scratch?  I think i need a vulcan physical constitution
Host Gilles says:
ACTION: A piece of bulkead falls from the ceiling on the XO's leg... she screams in pain.
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
::slowly works his way to his feet::
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
CTO: Just a few bumps and bruises, but I'll live. What about you?
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
FCO: I don't know, My shoulder hurts but I don't think it's too serious.
CSO_LtJG_Semaj says:
:: Takes the medkit and opens it to get the tricorder and starts scanning the XO::  XO: Only the broken leg, you are lucky.  I will have to set this the old fashioned way so prepare yourself.
CTO_Ens_MacAllister says:
::limps over to the XO:: Where are you hurt Commander?
Host XO_Jameson says:
::Nods silently at the CSO::
FCO_Ens_Flight says:
:: smiles and sighs with relief :: Self: What a day!
CSO_LtJG_Semaj says:
    :: Pulls on the leg and sets it with a slight pop::
Host XO_Jameson says:
::passes out with the pain::
