TO_Benson says:
::Standing at tactical two on the Bridge watching the sensor readouts ready to return fire::

Host CO_Loran says:
::Enters the Bridge::  ALL:  Stations everyone.  CTO: Give me a status report.

XO-Teasley says:
::In his chair looking over sensor data::

CTO_Madson says:
::Takes the station::

OPS_Nichols says:
::Entering the Bridge with CSO Horn::

FCO_Jadahn says:
::Jumps over the OPS station, slides into his own station and then has a seat, ready for action::

CSO_Ryan_Horn says:
::Follows OPS Nichols::

XO-Teasley says:
::Portside, oh great, football heads are back::

OPS_Nichols says:
::Steps to her station and sits down::

TO_Benson says:
CO: All weapons ready at your command, Sir!

OPS_Nichols says:
FCO: Next time, you might want to jump with your feet angled away from the console? ::Looks over at Apollo and grins::

CSO_Ryan_Horn says:
::Takes science one::

FCO_Jadahn says:
::Nods to OPS:: OPS: Right.  ::Pretends to take a mental note::

Host CO_Loran says:
FCO: Evasive maneuvers and try to keep us from getting hit.

Host Cmdr_Lansing says:
CO: That was a tap on the shoulder.  I suggest you get out of here before they get serious.

TO_Benson says:
CO: Weapons are ready, however I doubt they will be very effective against technology from the future.

Host CO_Loran says:
Lansing: I had a feeling you were going to say that.

FCO_Jadahn says:
CO: Aye, Sir.  ::Begins manual evasive maneuvers.  He always does them manually::

TO_Benson says:
::Taps the console locking on targeting scanners::

XO-Teasley says:
::Looking over data the sensors are getting::

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The alien ship fires again, but misses.

Host CO_Loran says:
Lansing: Do you have an idea where we can go to 'hide' from them while we do our upgrades?

OPS_Nichols says:
::Begins receiving reports from all departments::

FCO_Jadahn says:
Self: That's right, bring it.  ::Continues evasive maneuvers, putting IDs to the test::

Host Cmdr_Lansing says:
::Moves over to the CSO and looks over his shoulder::

Host Cmdr_Lansing says:
CO: From this data, there is no place to hide.  We'll have to do this on the run, first thing should be the shields.

Host Cmdr_Lansing says:
::Moves over to the TO::

CSO_Ryan_Horn says:
::Going over sensor readings::

OPS_Nichols says:
::Notes two minor injuries from the blast being taken to sickbay::

Host CO_Loran says:
Lansing: Would you suggest going to warp?

TO_Benson says:
::Looks to her left as Lansing approaches and moves to allow him access to the console::

XO-Teasley says:
::Running, not the best thing but necessary here::

Host Cmdr_Lansing says:
::Mentions a few things to the TO and tells her what to modify::

Host Cmdr_Lansing says:
CO: No, if you go to warp, they will simply let you go.  You'll need to make this a running fight to keep their attention.

TO_Benson says:
::Nods and moves back to the tactical station and begins entering the modifications into the shield system::

Host CO_Loran says:
Lansing: Roger.  

XO-Teasley says:
::Running gun battle?::

Host CO_Loran says:
CTO/TO: When you have the chance, take a few pot shots at the aliens to keep their attention until the weapons have been upgraded.

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The aliens fire a couple more times.  The first shot misses, the second one grazes the shields.

TO_Benson says:
::Watches the shield monitor as she sees the changes taking affect.  Raises eyebrow in amazement::

TO_Benson says:
CO: Aye, Sir.  ::Taps the console and fires a volley of torpedoes::

XO-Teasley says:
::Notices the shields change on his read out::

Host CO_Loran says:
OPS: Do you have any sensor readings of the once thought to be Romulan ship?

TO_Benson says:
::Quickly grabs a PADD and makes notes on the shield modifications for later study::

OPS_Nichols says:
CO: They caught the shields on that one, Sir.

FCO_Jadahn says:
CTO/TO: Coordinate your efforts with me.  We can do some "hit and run".  It will increase chance of hitting the target and hinder their chances of hitting us.....hopefully.

TO_Benson says:
CO: Shield are holding, Sir.  No damage after the modifications.  ::Smiles::

TO_Benson says:
FCO: Acknowledged, Lieutenant.

Host CO_Loran says:
TO: That is good to hear.

XO-Teasley says:
::Alright::

TO_Benson says:
::Looks to Commander Lansing:: Lansing: And what can you do about enhancing our weapons, Sir?

OPS_Nichols says:
CO: Checking sensors now, Sir.

Host CO_Loran says:
FCO: I want to stay close but not too close to them until we have been able to modify the ship.  We don't need a heavy barrage of their fire hitting us and taking our weapons offline before we can upgrade them.

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: Titan's torpedoes impact the alien ship with no results.

XO-Teasley says:
::Waiting to see the next improvement::

FCO_Jadahn says:
CO: Aye, Sir.  ::Changes plans to "short" hit and runs::

TO_Benson says:
CO: Just as I expected, our torpedoes are ineffective.

Host CO_Loran says:
TO: I don't care if we are ineffective, I just want to keep them 'interested' in us and not run away.  I want them to keep guessing about our ability, so when we are hit by their weapons, I want you to 'drain' a part of those shields to show that we can't stand up to their firepower.

TO_Benson says:
CO: Aye, Sir.

Host Cmdr_Lansing says:
All: Torpedoes will have to be physically modified.  I've sent the specs to engineering.  The phasers can be rerouted through the warp engines to increase the power.

XO-Teasley says:
::Checks sensors again::

TO_Benson says:
::Taps the console rerouting phasers through the warp engines::

Host CO_Loran says:
CTO: Fire phasers at reduced power.  I want to surprise these aliens all at once with all the improvements.

OPS_Nichols says:
CO: I can't find anything on the ship, Sir.

Host AGM_Dave says:
ACTION: The aliens fire again, hitting Titan.

CTO_Madson says:
::Cutting power to phasers and fires:: CO: Understood.

TO_Benson says:
::Taps console to simulate a drop in shield power at the impact points::

XO-Teasley says:
::Hope this dogging and faking works::

FCO_Jadahn says:
Self: Argh...those little... ::Mumbles a few expletives to himself and tries a few of his more erratic maneuvers::

OPS_Nichols says:
::Mutters under her breath as she begins receiving a fresh round of reports::

Host Cmdr_Lansing says:
TO: Watch the power couplers.  They will start to overheat.  You'll have to compensate with an increased coolant flow.

TO_Benson says:
::Looks up at Lansing:: Lansing: Aye, Sir.

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: Phaser power has increased by 34%

XO-Teasley says:
::Keep going::

TO_Benson says:
::Watches as the power coupler temperatures slowly increase and taps the console adjusting the coolant flow to compensate::

Host Cmdr_Lansing says:
CO: I'm going to engineering to help with torpedo modifications.

Host Cmdr_Lansing says:
::Without waiting for an answer, leaves the Bridge::

Host CO_Loran says:
Lansing: Roger.  Let us know when all modifications have been finished and we can take the fight to them.

TO_Benson says:
::Checks the modifications to the phasers:: CO: Sir, phaser power has increased by 34%.

Host CO_Loran says:
TO: That is good to hear.

CTO_Madson says:
::Watching phaser output::

FCO_Jadahn says:
::Is having his own personal little "duel" with these aliens...like a game of "Try to hit me now, suckers!"::

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The aliens score a direct hit on Titan.  Shields are down to 89%.

TO_Benson says:
::Grabs her PADD and makes more notes on the modifications.  Grinning as she taps the PADD::

CTO_Madson says:
CO: Direct hit.  Shields down to 89%!

FCO_Jadahn says:
::Frowns::

XO-Teasley says:
CO: Should I go with Commander Lansing?

CTO_Madson says:
::Getting excited as the weapons power rise to great levels::

TO_Benson says:
::Decreases shield strength by 11% as the aliens fire on the Titan::

Host CO_Loran says:
XO: Yes, go with him and help him if he needs help.

XO-Teasley says:
CO: Aye, Sir.  ::Gets up and heads off after Lansing.  Enters the turbolift and heads off to Main Engineering::

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: Titan manages to escape the latest round of alien fire.

Host CO_Loran says:
FCO: Keep that evasive flying up.

FCO_Jadahn says:
Self: Hah!  That's right!  ::Attempts to continually surprise the aliens with different styles of maneuvering every couple minutes::

FCO_Jadahn says:
::Clears throat and regains posture:: CO: Uhm...right!  Aye, Sir!

XO-Teasley says:
::Gets to Main Engineering and looks for Lansing::

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: Titan's superstructure begins to complain about the amount of stress the FCO is putting it under.

CTO_Madson says:
CO/FCO: You might want to tone that back a bit, the superstructure is starting to have its problems keeping up.

FCO_Jadahn says:
::Console blinks.  Glances at the warning message:: Console: Aw.. quit your whining.

CSO_Ryan_Horn says:
::Finishes working on the sensor array and tests it::

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: Structural Integrity Field weakens by 12% due to blown generators.

FCO_Jadahn says:
::Lightens up, frowning::

CTO_Madson says:
CO: We are losing Structural Integrity Field generators, Structural Integrity Field down 12%.

OPS_Nichols says:
::Glances over at the FCO:: FCO: Don't save us only to tear us apart by your driving Lieutenant.

XO-Teasley says:
::Remembers Lansing saying something about torpedoes and heads for the main torpedo bay::

Host CO_Loran says:
CTO: Understood.

CSO_Ryan_Horn says:
::Gets no extra power out of the sensors and becomes frustrated::

Host CO_Loran says:
OPS: I need you to keep looking for that stolen ship, as it might be hiding somewhere for an attack on us.

XO-Teasley says:
::Getting close to the torpedo bay::

FCO_Jadahn says:
::Decides to move on from dynamic, erratic maneuvers to more consistent maneuvers, only constantly changing the general plane that they are preformed on::

OPS_Nichols says:
~~~CSO: It'll work, just double-check everything~~~

Host Cmdr_Lansing says:
*CO* You now have 5 modified quantum torpedoes.  Use them wisely.

CSO_Ryan_Horn says:
::Starts over from the beginning::

Host CO_Loran says:
*Lansing* Is that all of your modifications?

TO_Benson says:
::Taps the PADD furiously, copying the modification data.  Puts the PADD down and taps the console loading the modified quantum torpedoes into the launchers::

XO-Teasley says:
::Walks into the bay and finds Lansing::

Host Cmdr_Lansing says:
*CO* We will continue to modify as fast as we can, but the going will be slow.

XO-Teasley says:
Lansing: I can help you get them done faster.

TO_Benson says:
CO: Modified quantum torpedoes loaded and ready, Sir!  ::Grins::

Host CO_Loran says:
*Lansing* Roger.  Are there any other systems you are going to need to modify?

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The alien’s score another direct hit.  Structural Integrity Field is down, and gravity is offline.

CTO_Madson says:
::Starts to float and grabs panel:: CO: Structural Integrity Field is down and we have lost gravity.

Host CO_Loran says:
::Starts to float into the air::

TO_Benson says:
::Begins floating up off the deck::  CO: Artificial gravity offline, Sir!  ::Grabs the console to stop herself::

OPS_Nichols says:
::Wraps a leg around part of her console trying in vain to stay seated::

FCO_Jadahn says:
::Grabs onto his console...he locks his legs around his chair, and continues working::

XO-Teasley says:
::Starts to float on the bay:: Lansing: I don't suppose they want you?

Host Cmdr_Lansing says:
XO: ::Tosses the XO a PADD:: here's the specs to modify the torpedoes yield.  Get to it.

TO_Benson says:
::Reaches out to grab her precious PADD, which is floating nearby::

XO-Teasley says:
::Grabs the PADD while floating:: Lansing: Right.

FCO_Jadahn says:
::Just sort of moves the Titan around, since Structural Integrity Field is down and he doesn't want to kill everyone::

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: Gravity comes back on, and numerous injury reports come in from all over the ship.

Host CO_Loran says:
::Falls to the ground with a thud::

XO-Teasley says:
::Floats over and falls flat on his face:: self: Ouch

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The aliens get another hit in.  Shields are down to 76%

OPS_Nichols says:
CO: Sir, we have multiple injuries all over the ship.

TO_Benson says:
::Drops like a rock to the deck.  Gets up quickly::

CSO_Ryan_Horn says:
::Thinks to himself right as gravity returns "Figures""::

FCO_Jadahn says:
::Feels gravity come back, but ignores it for the most part::

XO-Teasley says:
::Climbs up and move over to a torpedo and takes off the covering::

Host CO_Loran says:
OPS: Get medical teams on them.  ::Stands back up::

CTO_Madson says:
::Pulling self up:: CO: Shields down to 76%.

OPS_Nichols says:
::Rubs her tailbone for a moment, then sits back up in her chair::

TO_Benson says:
::Gets jolted into the bulkhead from the impact.  Quickly moves back to her station and decreases shields another 13%::

OPS_Nichols says:
CO: Aye, Sir, already on it.

OPS_Nichols says:
::Receives confirmation from Sickbay regarding medical units::

XO-Teasley says:
Lansing: I hope you know what you signed up for.  ::Crosses some wires::

Host CO_Loran says:
ALL: Okay, I’m tired of being in a shooting gallery.  Let’s take the fight to them.

Host CO_Loran says:
FCO: Turn us around and head for the aliens.

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The XO can see other teams as well as Lansing begin to work on more torpedoes.

OPS_Nichols says:
::Looks around the Bridge to see if anyone is injured::

Host CO_Loran says:
CTO: Bring phasers to full power.

FCO_Jadahn says:
CO: Sir, just a reminder, we lack a Structural Integrity Field.

Host CO_Loran says:
TO: Bring shields back to full power.

TO_Benson says:
::Hears the CO and thinks: It's about time!:: CO: Modified quantum torpedoes ready!  Modified Phasers ready!

CTO_Madson says:
::Powers up phasers:: CO: Phasers to full.

XO-Teasley says:
::Rewires::

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: Emergency power is restored to the Structural Integrity Field.

TO_Benson says:
CO: Aye, Sir.  ::Taps console bringing shields back to full power::

CSO_Ryan_Horn says:
::Prays that his new modifications on the sensors work::

FCO_Jadahn says:
::Sees the Structural Integrity Field come back online and brings Titan about and heads toward the aliens::

Host CO_Loran says:
*Engineering*  We need the main Structural Integrity Field generators working ASAP.

OPS_Nichols says:
::Begins checking all systems and insuring proper power distribution::

FCO_Jadahn says:
CO: Already back, Sir.  We're ready to go.

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The alien ship stops as if surprised that Titan is no longer running.

Host CO_Loran says:
CTO/TO: Fire the torpedoes as sparingly as possible.

XO-Teasley says:
all: This one is ready.

XO-Teasley says:
::Goes over to another torpedo::

CTO_Madson says:
CO: Aye, Sir.

TO_Benson says:
CO: Aye, Sir.  ::Cracks her knuckles and places her fingers carefully on the tactical console::

CTO_Madson says:
::Targets the widest spot on the football shaped vessel and fires a torpedo::

Host CO_Loran says:
CTO/TO: Fire when you have a good shot.

FCO_Jadahn says:
::Restores speed to full impulse since the loss of Structural Integrity Field automatically made the engines decrease speed::

TO_Benson says:
::Watches as the first torpedo is launched and quickly reloads the launcher::

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: Two more modified torpedoes are moved to the launchers.

TO_Benson says:
::Watches for the targeting scanner to lock onto the vessel and fires phasers::

XO-Teasley says:
::Adjust the firing control::

Host CO_Loran says:
FCO: Keep the evasive maneuvers going but be a little more careful in your erratic moves.

CSO_Ryan_Horn says:
::12%? Wonders how Starfleet could accept such junk as these "New” sensors::

CTO_Madson says:
::Targets the same area again and fires again::

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: Titan's lone torpedo impacts the alien ship and literally knocks it on its side a huge breach in its hull.

OPS_Nichols says:
::Glances up at the viewscreen still disconcerted over her lacking ability to sense the aliens::

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: Titan's phasers hit their mark and the alien’s shields are down.

TO_Benson says:
::Taps console reloading the torpedo launcher again::

FCO_Jadahn says:
CO: Aye, Sir, will do but last time I did that we got hit.  ::Resumes evasive maneuvers::

XO-Teasley says:
::Adjusts the wires::

TO_Benson says:
All: Direct hit!  We have caused a hull breach on their starboard side!

Host CO_Loran says:
ALL: Okay, I'm sure they are pissed about now since they now know we have help from our future.  Pour on the phasers, targeting anything that looks important.

Host CO_Loran says:
CSO: I want a full scan of that ship when their shields are down.

CTO_Madson says:
::Targets phasers and let’s loose a barrage of fire::

TO_Benson says:
CO: With pleasure, Sir!  ::Locks on targeting scanners and fires phasers::

XO-Teasley says:
Lansing: I don't suppose you have any more tricks up your sleeve?

Host Cmdr_Lansing says:
All in Torpedo Bay:  OKAY!  We've got ten done!   We shouldn't need any more!  Let's move to necessary repairs!

CSO_Ryan_Horn says:
CO: I will do what I can with these sensors.

OPS_Nichols says:
CO: All departments show the ship is secure, Sir.

Host CO_Loran says:
TO: Give them a couple more torpedoes in their starboard side.

TO_Benson says:
CO: Aye, Sir!  ::Fires two modified quantum torpedoes to their starboard side::

FCO_Jadahn says:
::Wondering if destroying the ship is their objective::

TO_Benson says:
::Quickly reloads the launchers::

XO-Teasley says:
::Finishes the torpedo and stays with Lansing::

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: Titan's phasers hit their mark again.  The alien ship is destroyed, but from it's explosion comes the stolen Federation ship, weapons blazing.  Titan rocks hard under the assault.  Phasers are offline.

OPS_Nichols says:
CO: We are under attack, Sir, again.

Host CO_Loran says:
::Sees the stolen ship::  CTO: What sensor readings are you getting from that ship?

TO_Benson says:
CO: Phasers offline!

FCO_Jadahn says:
::More than mutters a few expletives::

CTO_Madson says:
::Checking sensor input::

OPS_Nichols says:
::Sends message to Sickbay preparing them for another phase of the attack::

FCO_Jadahn says:
CO: Sir, shall I pursue the ship?!

XO-Teasley says:
Lansing: I don't suppose we can capture the stolen vessel?

CTO_Madson says:
CO: I'm not getting any internal readings from that ship.

OPS_Nichols says:
::Checks all communication channels::

Host Cmdr_Lansing says:
XO: I have no more tricks.  If we can disable its engines, we can capture it.

TO_Benson says:
CO: Shall I return fire, Sir?  ::Rocks from the impact from their weapons fire::

Host CO_Loran says:
*Lansing*  Your Federation ship is attacking us now and has knocked out our phasers.  I'm hoping to take that ship more or less intact, so, try to get the phasers up.

XO-Teasley says:
Lansing: That means boarding the vessel.

Host CO_Loran says:
CTO: Can you tell what their shield output is?

CTO_Madson says:
::Scans their shielding::

FCO_Jadahn says:
::Shakes head, and just continues evasive maneuvers::

OPS_Nichols says:
CO: Sir, would Commander. Lansing have their access codes?

CTO_Madson says:
CO: Sorry, I can't get that.

Host CO_Loran says:
TO: Fire a regular torpedo and see what happens to them until we can get phasers back up.

TO_Benson says:
CO: Aye, Sir.  ::Loads a photon torpedo into one of the launchers and fires::

Host Cmdr_Lansing says:
*CO* We're on it.  ::Motions to the XO to follow him into a Jeffries tubes.

Host CO_Loran says:
OPS: It is possible, but, I'm not sure if our computers can link up.

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: Titan's torpedo has no effect.

OPS_Nichols says:
CO: I'd still like to try, Sir.

XO-Teasley says:
::Follows Lansing::

Host CO_Loran says:
OPS: See if you can make it happen.

TO_Benson says:
CO: Torpedo ineffective, Sir.  No damage to the vessel.

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The stolen ship arcs around to line up for another firing run.

OPS_Nichols says:
*Lansing* Do you have access codes for that ship?

CTO_Madson says:
CO: Sir, they are coming back for more!

Host CO_Loran says:
TO: Fire one of the modified torpedoes and target their engines.

TO_Benson says:
CO: The vessel is coming about for another firing run!  Aye, Sir!  ::Fires a modified quantum torpedo at the alien vessel’s engines::

OPS_Nichols says:
::Opens a download line to attempt access with the other vessel::

FCO_Jadahn says:
::Dives the Titan downward to give the stolen vessel a more awkward shot::

Host Cmdr_Lansing says:
*OPS* I can't tell you that right now.  We just need to disable their engines and capture the ship as intact as possible.

Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: Titan's modified torpedo has no effect.

OPS_Nichols says:
*Lansing* I can promise it totally intact if I could lower their shields, Sir.

TO_Benson says:
CO: Modified quantum torpedo ineffective!
