Leonard Fletcher as CEO Lieutenant Commander Lars Fletcher
Richard Robbins as CNS Lieutenant Commander James McDuggle
Theresa Wilson as CMO Ensign Catherine Madson

CNS_McDuggle says:
::Plots courses as ordered by captain::

Host CO_Loran says: 
XO: Commander, with me in my Ready Room.  ::Stands and walks to his Ready Room.  Looks over his shoulder::  CNS: You have the con.

CTO_Benson says:
::Standing at the tactical monitoring the Jem’Hadar fleet on the long-range sensors::

CTO_Benson says:
<SO> ::At the science station monitoring the newly forming wormhole on the sensors::

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The black hole continues to transform into a wormhole.  Science estimates it will become functional in approximately one hour.

CTO_Benson says:
<SO> CO: Sir, the wormhole will become functional in approximately one hour.

CNS_McDuggle says:
CO: Roger, Sir.  ::Turns helm over to Ensign Cross and moves to main chair::

CMO_Madson says:
::Looking over the latest patient::

Host CO_Loran says:
::Enters his Ready Room::

XO_Madson says:
::Follows the CO into the Ready Room:

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The alien bodies in Sickbay begin to smell very, very bad.

Host CO_Loran says:
::Steps to the side and waits for the XO to enter and the door closes::

CMO_Madson says:
::Walks over to examine the aliens as to a cause for the horrendous smell.  Turns on the vents::

CNS_McDuggle says:
SO: Did you say that the black hole would become a wormhole in one hour?

Host CO_Loran says:
XO: I need your opinion.

XO_Madson says:
CO: Go ahead.

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The alien body's skin begins to crack and dry up.

Host CO_Loran says:
XO: I'm going to tell you something that only Captains and higher only know about.

CTO_Benson says:
<SO> CNS: Affirmative, Sir.  It will be fully functional within an hour.

Host CO_Loran says:
XO: You remember the Omega symbols?

CNS_McDuggle says:
SO: Do you have any ideal where it might lead yet

CMO_Madson says:
::Notes the alien's  bodies begin to develop cracks.  The skin begins to dry very badly::

CTO_Benson says:
<SO> ::Tapping the console adjusting the sensors as necessary and reading the results of the scans as they scroll on the display::

XO_Madson says:
CO: Yeah, I do.  Why do you ask?

CMO_Madson says:
::Starts a complete scan to determine the reason for desiccation::

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: Within a matter of seconds, the alien body cracks deeply, collapses, and turns into a large pile of dust.  Some of the dust flies up into the air.

CTO_Benson says:
<SO> CNS: Not yet, Sir.  I am going to suggest we send a probe into the wormhole when it has completely formed.  We should be able to get some results from the readings and extrapolate the destination.

CMO_Madson says:
::Backs away and activates the force field around the aliens

Host CO_Loran says:
CO:  That alert signifies Priority One danger.  Starfleet Command has deemed that this particular molecule to be the most dangerous threat known to the galaxy.  Captains are supposed to destroy that molecule at all costs, even if it means destroying a civilization.  The Prime Directive is forgotten with this alert.

CNS_McDuggle says:
SO: Roger, stay on it and prepare probe.

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The Jem’Hadar fleet begins to fade out of sensor range.

CTO_Benson says:
CNS: The Jem’Hadar fleet is almost out of our sensor range, Sir.

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The dust in the air tickles The CMO’s nose and she sneezes.

CTO_Benson says:
<SO> CNS: Aye, Sir.  ::Taps the console and configures a probe, readying it for launch::

XO_Madson says:
CO: I see.

CMO_Madson says:
::Scratches nose and does a triple sneeze::  *Bridge*:  Want to report the alien's body just disintegrated.  Seems it reacted with our higher oxygen content and some bacteria in the air.

CNS_McDuggle says:
CTO: Roger.  FCO: Ensign, engage course towards the Jem’Hadar fleet and keep us just within sensor range.

Host CO_Loran says:
XO: So, for all intents and purposes, my job is to destroy that molecule at all costs, even at the loss of this ship.

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: Titan moves to shadow the Jem’Hadar fleet.

CNS_McDuggle says:
*CO*: Sir, the Jem’Hadar fleet is moving out of our sensor range and I have order the FCO to follow at just in sensor range.

XO_Madson says:
CO: Understood.  So, I believe then we have a date with that battlecruiser?

Host CO_Loran says:
*CNS*:  Understood.  Keep that lead battlecruiser on sensors.

CNS_McDuggle says:
*CMO*: Doc I would suggest that you get rid of the alien before it infects the crew.

CNS_McDuggle says:
*CO*: Roger Sir

CTO_Benson says:
*CMO*: I suggest placing the remains in a biohazard container and locking it up.

Host CO_Loran says:
XO: That is what I wanted to ask you.  we took a pounding with just one battlecruiser and 4 fighters.  This is double that amount, any suggestions?

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The CMO sneezes again.

CMO_Madson says:
*CTO*: Yes, I would like to keep the remains and I am putting them in the container for safekeeping.

CTO_Benson says:
*CMO*: Acknowledged.

XO_Madson says:
CO: Are there any additional ships nearby?

Host CO_Loran says:
XO: At this point, we are all that we have.

CMO_Madson says:
::Gets out the container and suctions the remains into it remotely.  Turns on the venting system to flush the Sickbay::

CNS_McDuggle says:
*CMO*: I would suggest disinfecting Sickbay as well.

CMO_Madson says:
::Initiates disinfecting of the Sickbay and heads for decontamination::

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The wormhole is almost completely formed and will be operational in approximately 10 minutes.  The Jem’Hadar fleet should arrive there about the same time.

CTO_Benson says:
<SO> ::Looks up from his console:: CNS: Sir, the wormhole will be completely formed and functional in approximately 10 minutes.

CTO_Benson says:
CNS: The Jem’Hadar fleet will arrive there at approximately the same time, Sir.

CNS_McDuggle says:
SO: Roger.  Is the probe ready?

XO_Madson says:
CO: If we can beat the Jem’Hadar to the wormhole, we can set up a little surprise for them.  I know we don't have many mines, but we could modify the probes and some of the escape pods to works as mines.  Perhaps also spreading around some vented plasma could produce quite a bang.

CTO_Benson says:
<SO> CNS: Yes, Sir.  Probe is ready for launch.

Host CO_Loran says:
XO: That is a good idea.  Lets head back out and see if Commander Benson can make it happen.

CNS_McDuggle says:
CTO: Roger.   *CO*: Sir, the wormhole will be complete in about 10 minutes and the Jem’Hadar fleet will arrive there at the same time.

Host CO_Loran says:
::Turns and exits his Ready Room::  CNS: Understood.

XO_Madson says:
::Follows the Captain out of the Ready Room::

Host CO_Loran says:
XO: Discuss your plan with Commander Benson.

XO_Madson says:
CO: Understood.  Perhaps we should hit the gas to get there before they do.

Host CO_Loran says:
CTO: What speed is the Jem’Hadar fleet moving?

CTO_Benson says:
CO: Warp 5, Sir.

CNS_McDuggle says:
::Sees the Captain enter the Bridge and moves out of the Captain's chair:: CO: Sir.

CTO_Benson says:
CO: We are following just out of their sensor range.

XO_Madson says:
CTO: I was thinking that we could reconfigure all of the sensor probes and some of the escape pods to work as mines.  In addition we could vent some warp plasma to fuel the explosion.

CTO_Benson says:
XO: Explosion, Sir?  What are we trying to destroy?

CNS_McDuggle says:
::Moves back to helm and take over from Ensign Cross::

XO_Madson says:
CTO: Setting that up ahead of them should take out some of their ships, might give us a better chance.

XO_Madson says:
CTO: We are trying to take down that fleet.

Host CO_Loran says:
All: I don't know what it is, but, those ships didn't see us before and they might not see us now.

CTO_Benson says:
XO: Ah, I see, Sir.  Well, I would like to keep some of our torpedoes just in case.  I will have engineering prepare the probes and escape pods.

Host CO_Loran says:
CNS: Increase speed to warp 8.  I want to get ahead of them and possibly not get into any action with them before the wormhole.

XO_Madson says:
CTO: That is what I mean. We use the sensor pods and escape pods as the explosives so we keep our torpedoes.

CNS_McDuggle says:
CO: Roger, Sir.  ::Engages warp 8 and heads for the wormhole::

CTO_Benson says:
XO: We could also reconfigure the holo emitters to project a duplicate image of the Titan, Sir.  It might confuse them and buy us a few extra minutes.

CTO_Benson says:
XO: Aye, Sir.  I will contact engineering and send them the modifications.

XO_Madson says:
CTO: Good idea.  Get all of our security personal on reconfiguring the sensor pods.

CEO_Fletcher says:
::In Main Engineering, coordinating with tactical::

CTO_Benson says:
*CEO*: Benson to Engineering.  I want all escape pods and available probes reconfigured to these specifications.  Please notify me when the modifications are complete.  ::Sends the modifications to Main Engineering::

XO_Madson says:
CO/CTO: We could also gather up as much plasma canisters and rig them with timed detonators.  If we can take their shields down, a transport of a couple full plasma canisters should cause some internal damage.

Host CO_Loran says:
XO: Make it happen.

XO_Madson says:
CO: Captain, we could also use all of our shuttles.  With them, that also buys us a little bit more firepower.

CNS_McDuggle says:
CO: One minute to the wormhole.

CTO_Benson says:
*Security*: Send three teams to the armory and have them break out all the plasma containers we have available.  I want them rigged with timed detonators.  Inform me when they are ready.  Benson, out.

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: Titan arrives at the wormhole.  The Jem’Hadar ships show no signs of detecting Titan.

CEO_Fletcher says:
*CTO*: I'll get some people on it

Host CO_Loran says:
CTO: Bet ready to send the probe through the wormhole.

CTO_Benson says:
*CEO*: Would it be possible to reconfigure the holo emitters to project an image of the Titan running alongside us?

XO_Madson says:
CTO: Are the sensor probes ready?

CTO_Benson says:
CO: Aye, Sir.  Probe is ready at your command, Sir.

Host CO_Loran says:
CTO: Launch it.

CTO_Benson says:
CO: Aye, Sir.  ::Hits the launch button and sends the probe into the wormhole::  Probe away, Sir.

CEO_Fletcher says:
*CTO*: Yes, it's possible but to duplicate our warp signature onto it takes more time and power.

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The probe slips into the wormhole.

XO_Madson says:
CO: Once the modified probes are in place, we should vent some plasma in the area.  We can hide behind the explosion.

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The Jem’Hadar ships increase their speed to warp 7.

CTO_Benson says:
*CEO*: Very well, Chief.  Please get started.  We'll need this as quickly as you can do it.

XO_Madson says:
CTO: How much longer before the mines are ready?

CNS_McDuggle says:
CO: Sir, we are at the wormhole.

CTO_Benson says:
<SO> ::Watches the probe on the sensors::  CO: Probe has entered the wormhole, Sir.

Host CO_Loran says:
CTO: Go back over the sensor logs to the moment we crossed through the DS9 wormhole and tell me at what range did we detect the Jem’Hadar ships.

CTO_Benson says:
*CEO*: How much longer on those mines?

CTO_Benson says:
<Security> *CTO*: Plasma containers are ready, Sir.

CEO_Fletcher says:
*CTO*: Another two minutes from the reports I am getting and I’ll have the Titan 2 up in about ten minutes but that's with out the warp signature.

XO_Madson says:
*CEO*: I want to start transporting those pods into space as you finish each of them.

CTO_Benson says:
*CEO*: Acknowledged, Chief.  Do the best you can.

XO_Madson says:
CO: Sir, can you spare some pilots for the shuttles?

CEO_Fletcher says:
*XO*: Yes, Sir.

CTO_Benson says:
XO: Engineering reports 2 minutes to completion of the mines, Sir.

Host CO_Loran says:
XO: I don't think we will need the shuttles.  Something just isn't right.

XO_Madson says:
CTO: Understood.

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The Jem’Hadar Battlecruisers open fire on Titan.

XO_Madson says:
CO: I'd agree but you can never be too ready.

CTO_Benson says:
CO: We detected the first Jem’Hadar vessels approximately two light minutes after entering the wormhole.

CNS_McDuggle says:
XO: Sir, I have some of our best pilots heading for the shuttle bay now.

CTO_Benson says:
CO: The battlecruisers have detected us!  All: Incoming!

Host CO_Loran says:
CTO: Return fire on the lead battlecruiser only.

CNS_McDuggle says:
::Starts evasive maneuver Alpha 3::

XO_Madson says:
CTO: Shields up.

CTO_Benson says:
CO: Aye, Sir.  ::Raises shields, targets the lead battlecruiser and fires phasers::

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION:  A few shots graze the shields but it is enough to drop them by 12% and shake up the crew.

XO_Madson says:
*Transporter Room*: Get some plasma canisters ready for transport.

XO_Madson says:
CTO: Let me know when their shields are down.

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: Titan's phasers have minimal effect on the battlecruiser.  The Jem’Hadar fighters increase speed and begin to surround Titan.

CEO_Fletcher says:
*CTO*: I can give you the Gemini effect for three burst of about a minute each.

CTO_Benson says:
::Rocks from the impact:: CO: Shields down to 88%.

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The new wormhole is now fully functional.

Host CO_Loran says:
SO:  Anything from the probe?

CTO_Benson says:
*CEO*: I'll take it, Chief!  Where's my twin Titan?  ::Fires a volley of torpedoes::

XO_Madson says:
*CEO*: Are any of those mines ready?

CNS_McDuggle says:
::Changes to maneuver beta 7::

Host CO_Loran says:
CTO: If you can make it happen, make the other Titan come from the wormhole.

CTO_Benson says:
<SO> CO: Receiving telemetry now, Sir.

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The probe begins to send back data.  By the position of certain stars, it is located within Breen space.

XO_Madson says:
CO: So much for the surprise of the minefield.

CEO_Fletcher says:
*CTO*: Activating #1 now!  ::Pushes the emitter button::

CTO_Benson says:
<SO> CO: Sir, these readings indicate the probe is located within Breen space!

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The Jem’Hadar fighters fire on Titan from all angles. Shields drop to 50% and injuries start arriving in Sickbay.

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The probe stops transmitting.

Host CO_Loran says:
All: I was afraid of that.

CTO_Benson says:
CO: Activating the twin Titan now, Sir!

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: Titan's torpedoes impact the battlecruiser, lowering its shields to 78%

CNS_McDuggle says:
::Plots an escape course::

CTO_Benson says:
<SO> CO: I've lost the probe, Sir.  I am no longer receiving telemetry.

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The holographic Titan appears about 6000Km to port.  The Jem’Hadar ships ignore it.

CMO_Madson says:
::Directs the assistants to take the various injured people as they arrive::

CTO_Benson says:
CO: Firing another volley at the battlecruiser!  Their shields have dropped to 78%!  ::Fires another volley of torpedoes::

Host CO_Loran says:
CTO: Fire torpedoes at the battlecruiser and fire phasers at the fighters  and if you can, launch those mines.

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The second Jem’Hadar battlecruiser dives in front of the first, taking the brunt of Titan's torpedoes.

CNS_McDuggle says:
::Changes to evasive maneuver delta 9::

CTO_Benson says:
CO: Aye, Sir.  ::Fires another volley of torpedoes then targets the Jem’Hadar fighters with the phasers and sets the targeting scanners to a random modulation.  Hits the launch button and deploys the mines::

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The Jem’Hadar fighters fire again.  Titan's shields are down to 33%.  The tactical console explodes and sends the CTO to the deck.  She is unconscious.

XO_Madson says:
CO: How close can we fly ourselves to that main Jem’Hadar cruiser?

CTO_Benson says:
CO: Sir, our shields are down to... ::Gets hit by the exploding tactical console and flies backwards, landing on the deck unconscious::

CEO_Fletcher says:
::Has to deactivate holo-emitters before they blow::

XO_Madson says:
::Looks back to see the CTO knocked out on the floor and jumps up to the console and resumes targeting:: *CMO*:Medical alert on the Bridge.

CNS_McDuggle says:
::Sends Ensign Cross to check on the CTO::

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: Titan's phasers find their marks and three Jem’Hadar fighters take damage.

Host CO_Loran says:
XO: I'm sure as close as we can.  ::Sees and hears the explosion at the tactical console::  Get up there and tend to tactical.

CMO_Madson says:
*XO*: Roger.

CEO_Fletcher says:
*XO*: The mines are done and I’m going to increase power to the shields.

CMO_Madson says:
::Grabs the bag and runs for the turbolift::

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: One Jem’Hadar fighter is hit by mines and is destroyed.

XO_Madson says:
CO: Launching the rest of the mines.  ::Deploys the rest of the mines::

Host CO_Loran says:
XO: Start venting some plasma and lets see if we can catch a couple more fighters.

XO_Madson says:
CO: If we fly close enough perhaps some stray fire from the fighters might hit the cruiser.

XO_Madson says:
::Opens the vents for only a few seconds and shuts it and fires into the plasma::

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The fighters fire again, concentrating their fire on Titan's engines.  The Two Battlecruisers dive into the wormhole.  They take damage from the mines, but still get through.

CMO_Madson says:
::Runs onto the Bridge, locates the CTO and scans to find what's wrong.

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: Titan's shields are down to 10%.  The plasma ignites, sending four Jem’Hadar fighters into a fiery grave.  Three more are disabled.

XO_Madson says:
CO: Are we going to follow them in?

CNS_McDuggle says:
::Changes to evasive maneuver Lima 2::

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: Titan's warp drive goes down from the last volley from the Jem’Hadar.

CNS_McDuggle says:
CO: Warp drive is off line.

Host CO_Loran says:
SO:  How long will the wormhole stay open?

CEO_Fletcher says:
::Shuts down the holo-emitters altogether sending the power to shield giving 15% back to it.  Moves to the warp core::

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: Titan's shields rise to 25%.

CNS_McDuggle says:
*CEO*: Chief, we have lost warp drive.

Host CO_Loran says:
XO: How many fighters left?

CEO_Fletcher says:
*CNS*: I'm on it already.

CNS_McDuggle says:
*CEO*: Thank you.

XO_Madson says:
*CEO*: Can you give the power to phasers for a constant stream of fire?  I can rotate the frequency and once the phaser punches through, it'll do some damage.  CO: Two left at full power.

CNS_McDuggle says:
::Goes to evasive maneuver Gamma 12::

Host CO_Loran says:
XO: Lets take them out.

XO_Madson says:
::Locks on phasers to fighters and fires::

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The two remaining fighters fire on Titan knocking shields offline.

CEO_Fletcher says:
*XO*: You can but we'll have to take the power from the torpedo launchers.

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: Titan's phasers find their mark and bury deep into the fighter.  Their shields drop to 45%.

XO_Madson says:
*CEO*: Can we take it from the cargo bays?

XO_Madson says:
::Fires again on the fighters::

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The second Jem’Hadar fighter starts a run at Titan as though it will ram.

XO_Madson says:
XO: Sir, one has a dead on course for us.  ::Opens fire on the suicidal fighters::

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: Titan's phasers, combined with torpedoes, find that first fighter and destroy it.

Host CO_Loran says:
XO: Lock a tractor beam on the second one.

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The last fighter is within 4000KM of Titan.

CNS_McDuggle says:
::Sees fighter coming at the Titan and changes course to miss it::

CEO_Fletcher says:
*XO*: I did that for shields already.  Only thing left is life support and structural integrity.  We could run the power from individual shuttles.

XO_Madson says:
::Locks on a tractor beam::

XO_Madson says:
*CEO*: Have you deactivated replicators?

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The tractor beam is not functional.

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: Titan's weapons, however, disable the fighter while it is still 2300 KM away.

XO_Madson says:
CO: We don't have the power.  ::Fires phasers on the last fighter::

CNS_McDuggle says:
::Changes course and engages full impulse::

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The fighter self-destructs.

CEO_Fletcher says:
*XO*: Yes, I'm telling you everything went to the shield or weapons or propulsion already.  Want me to hook it up directly to the impulse drive?

XO_Madson says:
*CEO*: Go ahead and take it from the shuttles.

XO_Madson says:
CO: What are we going to do about the battlecruiser?

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The resulting explosion from the fighter rocks Titan.  The crew is tossed like a salad.  Aft shield generators are destroyed and the sensor pod has hull breaches.

CTO_Benson says:
::Rolls across the deck as the Titan is rocked from the explosion::

CMO_Madson says:
::Chases after the rolling tactical officer::

CEO_Fletcher says:
All In Engineering: Okay everyone, get a converter up and six energy batteries we're taking power from shuttles.  ::Before being thrown around::

Host CO_Loran says:
::Falls to the floor, hitting something hard::

XO_Madson says:
::Holds self to console::

CNS_McDuggle says:
::Gets back up from floor and checks readings::

Host CDMDave says:
