CMO_Tren says:
CSO: Oh

Host Scooter says:
ACTION: As Triton pulls up, the torpedo impacts not against the ship, but rather proximity-explodes near the warp field of Triton. The subspace implosion knocks both ships out of subspace...

Host CO_Winters says:
McLir: I need your experience on this one, I want you to beam the Shadowman to a holding cell on Triton and surround him with the CEO's new shielding as soon as you can get a lock.

CDR_McLir says:

CSO_Nash says:
CMO: I know of no such hidden talents but would interested in finding out. With all due respect I must report to the bridge at once

Host CO_Winters says:
SO: If you can disrupt the Opeongo's warp field.

SO_Weaver says:
::Looks up from his panel::  CO:  I'm still trying, but we need the power for defense more than the uplink attempt.

CDR_McLir says:
CO: Skipper, I think the Opeongo did itself some damage that time.

McLir: Excellent. See any way to capitalize on it?

Host Shadowman says:
@ ::closes eyes, amidst an exploding console:: ~~~ Child of my creation, let us continue further. We shall see glorious days as we continue ~~~~

XO_Keorn says:

CMO_Tren says:
CSO: Oh, well then please do stop by when you have the time

CDR_McLir says:
CO: It's shields are weakening.

CSO_Nash says:
CMO: You bet I will

CDR_McLir says:
CO: We're back in normal space

Host CO_Winters says:
SO: As the XO suggests. DO it.

SO_Weaver says:
::Nods and turns back, a little dazed for no apparent reason::

Host CO_Winters says:
XO: Continue to fire on the Opeongo. Try to make a hole in its shields.

SO_Weaver says:
::Activates the beam and targets the Opeongo::

CNS_Mrai says:
:: chuckles:: CO: Sir, I think we may have given him a little bit of a scare with that barrage something didn't go the way he planned I think and it seems that he may be a little on the "worried" side..

CDR_McLir says:
CO: The Transporter lock is bouncing all over the place.

CSO_Nash says:

CDR_McLir says:
::Brings Triton around to face the Opeongo::

XO_Keorn says:
CO: Aye

Host CO_Winters says:

Host Shadowman says:
@ ::brings Opie around... slowly... fires two torpedoes straight at the beam generators:: I have grown tired of your incessant pestering...

CEO_Jarek says:
*EO* Well done Mr. Porter

XO_Keorn says:
CO: I believe I can duplicate the subspace tunneling attack they used against us

CDR_McLir says:
CO: Now 1100 Kms from target.

CSO_Nash says:
:: The TL senses urgency in my tone and  accommodates the order. Now at the Bridge exit. Enters Bridge:: CO: Lt. Nash reporting for duty

CNS_Mrai says:
CO: Yes sir, will give it our best shot..

Host CO_Winters says:
McLir; Make a strafing pass at the Opeongo, try to get us in a good shot so Keorn can hit its weakend side.

CDR_McLir says:
::Does a negative drop of 2500 Kms::

EO_Porter says:
*CEO* : Thanks.

CDR_McLir says:
CO: Going under her sir...XO: Get ready...

Host CO_Winters says:
CNS: You must convince the entity that listening to the Shadowman is wrong.

Host Scooter says:
ACTION: The two torpedoes are broken up. Yet enough warhead impacts to disrupt the beams

CDR_McLir says:
XO: NOW!

XO_Keorn says:
::Fires at warp core containment ejection point::

SO_Weaver says:
CSO:  All yours, sir.  Might I take OPS?  I might prove more useful here...

Host CO_Winters says:
XO: If they can't do it, or they start feeling pain you will need to raise the shielding again right away.

CSO_Nash says:
SO: Acknowledged

CDR_McLir says:
::Rocks with the minor hit the Triton took::

CEO_Jarek says:

CNS_Mrai says:
CO: Yes sir, we will try to sir..

EO_Porter says:
::Frees up some unneeded power for the SO's use::

Host CO_Winters says:
CSO: What is the shield status of the Opeongo.

CDR_McLir says:
XO/SO: That last hit disrupted the beams.

CSO_Nash says:
:: Sits down at his station and scans for the Opie's Shield status::

XO_Keorn says:
McLir: Understood bringing lateral array online to continue beam

Host Shadowman says:
@ ::feels another succession of rumbles.... :: No... Not this soon...

SO_Weaver says:
::Nods, and evacuates a few decks to drain power from them::  CSO:  I'm currently on two projects...graviton beam to disrupt their warp field, subspace channel to hack their system.

CSO_Nash says:
CO: Sir reacquainting myself with the readings

CDR_McLir says:
::Maneuvers to place port array at the Opeongo::

CNS_Mrai says:
:: closes eyes and starts to scan the area around the "O"::

Host CO_Winters says:
XO: Let the EO take over that, I want you to hit the Opeongo with everything we got.

Host Shadowman says:
@ ::ejects the erupting core straight out, moving away slightly enough to escape the rocketing shock wave::

Host CO_Winters says:
EO: I want you to take over the graviton beam. Continue disrupting the Opeongo's warp trail. She's starting to crack.

CDR_McLir says:
::Maintains a distance of 3400 Kms::

CSO_Nash says:
SO: Give me the subspace channel

CEO_Jarek says:
*CO* Sir I have a theory, A directed Nucleonic beam directed at the weakened shield area may allow a good shot at her

CNS_Mrai says:
:: receives a big headache but ignores knowing full well this may be there only shot for awhile if not forever::

SO_Weaver says:
::Sees a boost in power and applies all necessary strength to the tactical systems::  CSO:  Aye sir!  ::Opens the channel::

EO_Porter says:
CO : Yes, sir.

Host CO_Winters says:
*CEO* Let the XO know when you are ready.

XO_Keorn says:
CO: Aye

CDR_McLir says:
CO: It ejected it's warp core.

CEO_Jarek says:
*CO* We have the power to do so

CEO_Jarek says:
*CO* Aye sir

Host CO_Winters says:
XO: Its shields should be weakened there. Fire

XO_Keorn says:
::Targets carefully and fires::

CDR_McLir says:
::Moves the Triton away from the Opeongo's core::

Host Shadowman says:
@ ::brings ship about again to the blown-open subspace tunnel:: COM: Triton: You shall not capture me quite yet... Captain John Winters. I should've rid myself of you earlier, just like I should've rid myself of your pestering band of snits you call the Federation.

CSO_Nash says:
CO: Sir their shields have weakened with warp core ejection. Calculating percentage now

EO_Porter says:
::Takes over the controls of the Graviton beam and continues aiming it at the Opeongo::

Host CO_Winters says:
CNS: Are you ready to try?

Host Shadowman says:

CDR_McLir says:
CO: Its opened another "tunnel"

CMO_Tren says:
::still in sickbay, sitting looking up medical files::

XO_Keorn says:
CO: If we direct a tacyon beam at the tunnel mouth we can collapse it before he enters

Host CO_Winters says:
*All Telepaths* Get ready. We are lowering the shields.

CEO_Jarek says:
*XO* Sir I have set up a Nucleonic Beam through the deflector dish, Once activated direct it at the weakest part of the shields and fire that should allow penetration

Host Shadowman says:
@ ::starts to move Opie towards the tunnel entrance at full impulse.::

Host CO_Winters says:
XO: Lower the special shielding. keep other defensive shields online.

CDR_McLir says:
CO: Going to full impulse.

XO_Keorn says:
::Begins tacyon pulse and drops shielding::

CSO_Nash says:
CO: Sir they are moving towards the opening

EO_Porter says:
::Boosts the graviton beam slightly::

CDR_McLir says:
::maneuvers around four of the torpedoes::

CEO_Jarek says:
*CO* Aye sir

Host CO_Winters says:
McLir: Follow him in again.

CNS_Mrai says:
::sends thoughts out towards the "O" thought waves telling/explaining that the shadow is in the wrong::

CDR_McLir says:
CO:  Got him sir!

Host CO_Winters says:
*CNS* Go.

CEO_Jarek says:
:: Tries contacting Opeongo::

Host CO_Winters says:
*CEO* Now

CDR_McLir says:
::Brings up the Opeongo's ion trail once again::

Host Shadowman says:
@ COM: Triton: And you... Commander Niall McLir... ::brings on visual sensors to reveal his face for the first time ever... it truly is McDowell's double:: Your little hack-job of a computer virus will fail miserably, just like you shall...

XO_Keorn says:

CNS_Mrai says:
::that he' the "O" is the more powerful entity and that it knows what the shadow is doing is wrong::

CSO_Nash says:
CO: Sir I suggest Tractors before they make the opening, with power permitting

CDR_McLir says:
CO: Closing sir.  ::Gasps as the Shadowman speaks of "the virus"::

Host CO_Winters says:
CSO: Just thinking the same thing. However, we would also be a sitting duck.

SO_Weaver says:
::Allocates just enough power to deflector control to stay ahead of the XO::

Host CO_Winters says:
McLir: Well now.

Host Shadowman says:
<Opie> @ ::dazed... confused... she's tired and weak... doesn't know what's going on. Just feels intense pain from inside::

CSO_Nash says:
CO: True sir

CDR_McLir says:
::Looks at Winters:: CO: So now it reads all our thoughts?

Host CO_Winters says:
*CNS, CEO*  Keep trying.

XO_Keorn says:
CO/McLir: I wonder why he hasn't referred to me

CNS_Mrai says:
:: Opie you know what I say is true fight against the shadow you know what he does is wrong, that it is against your training believe in yourself::

Host CO_Winters says:
*CNS, CEO& Tell her we will stop hurting her if she surrenders

Host Shadowman says:
@ ::pulls the ship into the tunnel just barely... damage from the exploded warp core is able to "light" the tunnel's trajectory::

CDR_McLir says:
::Looks quickly at Keorn:: XO: Good question.

CEO_Jarek says:
~~~~ We mean you no harm ,we only wish to assist you in freeing yourself

CSO_Nash says:
SO: What affect would a Verteron beam have on the subspace opening?

Host CO_Winters says:
*CEO, CNS* And that we are only hurting it because we are forced to.

CDR_McLir says:
::Looks back at console and adjusts course::

Host Shadowman says:
<Opie> @ ~~~~ But... I.... Can't!!!!! ::intense crying... pain... then silence:: ~~~~

CDR_McLir says:
::Heads the Triton toward the "tunnel" opening.

CEO_Jarek says:
~~~~ The pain you feel is that which we are forced to inflict ~~~~ you can make it stop ~~~~

Host CO_Winters says:
*CNS* Find out what the Opeongo owes the ShadowMan.

Host Scooter says:
ACTION: The tunnel closes, but Triton is able to extrapolate the course... Straight to the Federation core

SO_Weaver says:
CSO:  I would think that it should seal the opening...having the overall effect of collapsing the tunnel once the opening into normal space was closed.

XO_Keorn says:
::Changes tacyon beam to keep tunnel mouth open::

CDR_McLir says:
ALL: Going in.

CNS_Mrai says:
~~~~ Opie yes you can you are the stronger one you can do anything you want make him stop and we will not have to harm you we only have to because of the harm that the ShadowMan has done to us and to others ~~~~

CDR_McLir says:
CO: Damn! It closed.

CDR_McLir says:
::Plots the heading::

CMO_Tren says:
::still in sickbay::

CEO_Jarek says:
*CO* If I take on the Shadowman maybe the counselor will have a better chance

Host CO_Winters says:
McLir: Plot a course to follow. Maximum warp.

EO_Porter says:
::Shuts down the Graviton beam since the ship is gone::

CDR_McLir says:
CO: John, its heading for the center of the Federation space.

CSO_Nash says:
SO: I suggest we work on that theory once we have Opie in the crosshairs again

Host CO_Winters says:
SO: Warn all Federation colonies along its route.

CNS_Mrai says:
~~~~ Opie, why can't you what does the ShadowMan hold against you is there something we can do too help ~~~~

SO_Weaver says:
CSO:  I'll have the deflector prepared.  CO:  Hailing all frequencies.

CDR_McLir says:
CO: Course plotted...maximum warp now.

SO_Weaver says:
::Opens up a channel, broadcasting on standard Federation comm frequencies::

XO_Keorn says:
CO: I have very good reading of the output of the ship before the rift opened.  I may be able to open one myself

CDR_McLir says:
CO: Best we can do is warp 9.7 for 14 hours...

CSO_Nash says:
CO: Sir SO Weaver and I have a theory on how to trap the Opie with us if we get that opportunity again. We'll work on cleaning it up and see what kind of results we can get

CMO_Tren says:
::still in sickbay::

Host CO_Winters says:
XO: Coordinate that with the CSO.

XO_Keorn says:
CO: Aye

EO_Porter says:
CSO: Do you have any scans of the Opeongo's warp field?

XO_Keorn says:
::waves CSO over to show him what he has::

SO_Weaver says:
::Taps his panel, frustrated, dropping deflector power levels back to normal::

Host Shadowman says:
@ ::can't maintain stability of the tunnel for long... finally drops from subspace only 8 hours away at maximum warp::

CEO_Jarek says:
Opeongo ~~~~ Opeongo, we mean you no harm ~~~~

CDR_McLir says:

CSO_Nash says:
:: goes over to the XO:: EO: I do indeed. Transferring to you now

XO_Keorn says:
CO: My readings show the Opeongo reentering normal space only 8 hours ahead

Host CO_Winters says:
*CEO* She is out of range now. Do everything you can to squeeze all the speed out of this ship you can.

EO_Porter says:
CSO : Thanks. I'll try to rework the harmonics on the graviton beam so that it will be more effective

Host CO_Winters says:
XO: Good. She shouldn't be able to travel far without her heart.

CEO_Jarek says:
*CO* Aye sir

CDR_McLir says:
::Accesses OPS data and checks power distribution::

SO_Weaver says:
::Increases power slightly to sensor arrays...thinks in between a flurry of other thoughts that he's glad he didn't apply for OPS::

EO_Porter says:

CDR_McLir says:
::Old Engineering habits die hard::

CNS_Mrai says:
:: blinks eye's open and turns to look at the CO::  CO: Sir, there is something wrong here it seems like the "O" is afraid of the ShadowMan that she fights against him but to no avail..

Host CO_Winters says:
*CMO* Can you think of some kind of virus that could infect the Opeongo itself. I don't want to kill it, just disable it.

CSO_Nash says:
EO: Acknowledged. If you have any problems SO_Weaver and I are at you're disposal

CEO_Jarek says:
:: Realigns the plasma flow injectors to 110% .  ::

SO_Weaver says:
::Nods to the EO at the CSO's remark::

XO_Keorn says:
CSO: See there the increase in anti-tacyon particles

CNS_Mrai says:
Self: did I just call the "O" a she hmmmmmmm.

Host CO_Winters says:
CNS: Yes, Captain Ian said something similar on the Scimitar.

CMO_Tren says:
*CO* Creating a virus like that could take quite awhile

SO_Weaver says:
CO:  Captain...what do you mean by, virus?

CEO_Jarek says:
*CO* Sir I can give you warp 9.9 for 2.213 hours

Host CO_Winters says:
SO: Intrepid class vessels use biogel instead of hard wiring.

CNS_Mrai says:
CO: Sir I get the feeling that the "O" ::looks around the bridge:: is only a child, at least in thought .

EO_Porter says:
CDR : You've got an extra 0.1 of warp. I don't know how much faster she'll go, sir

Host CO_Winters says:
*CMO* Get to work. Something to infect the biogels or even the ship itself.

CDR_McLir says:
XO: Keorn, is there no chance of transmitting that "special" signal?

CMO_Tren says:
*CO* aye sir

XO_Keorn says:

CMO_Tren says:
::finds a very simple way to create the virus, begins instructing computer how to design one::

CEO_Jarek says:
*CO* I'll keep her together sir

SO_Weaver says:
::Slides back over to Sci 2 for the time being::  CSO:  Sir, I haven't started yet, but I'll get right on it.  ::Opens up a simulation, and starts setting up some basic tests::

CNS_Mrai says:
CO: Sir did Adm McDowell have any children?

Host CO_Winters says:
CNS: A whole civilization :: moans ::

CDR_McLir says:
::Hears the Counselor's question::

Host CO_Winters says:
<edit moans to fidgets>

CSO_Nash says:
SO: Take your time I want your best. Continue with the CMO. I think I have the best percentage simm right now. I will send to you for final cleanup detail and any refinements

CMO_Tren says:
*CO* Sir, I believe I've created a virus, which you wanted for the Opeongo

Host CO_Winters says:
McLir, XO: Well as we expected, it looks like McDowell.

EO_Porter says:
::Runs some wave harmonics calculations on the warp field data from the Opeongo::

Host CO_Winters says:
*CMO* Good,  coordinate things with the Science Officer.

CNS_Mrai says:
CO: What do you mean by that, sir

CEO_Jarek says:
:: Works on the Nucleonic Beam Theory, The more narrow the beam the better::

CMO_Tren says:
*CO* Aye sir

CDR_McLir says:
Winters: ::Nods:: Now the question is how and why?

SO_Weaver says:
CSO:  Aye sir... ::receives the initial simulation and runs standard algorithms::

XO_Keorn says:
::Shuts down the beam:: CO: I need some more time to work on it

Host CO_Winters says:
McLir: We just need to know how he came about..

CNS_Mrai says:
::notice's the CDR :: CDR: Sir do you have anything to add to my last question it may be important do we know if the ADM. has kids?

CDR_McLir says:
::Checks heading:: Winters: Might catch him in about 7.8 hours.

Host CO_Winters says:
XO: We should be there in a few hours anyway... Lets work on disabling the Opeongo. Good try though.

XO_Keorn says:
CO: aye sir

CDR_McLir says:
Winters: Think he'll be giving us his life story? ::laughs::

EO_Porter says:
::Notices a particular phase pattern in the warp field and adjusts the beam to emit the inverse::

CDR_McLir says:
CNS: He never mentioned any.

SO_Weaver says:
*CMO*  Is it possible for you to send what you've come up with on the virus thus far to my station, Science two, so I can take a look at it?

Host CO_Winters says:
McLir: I hope we made that shadow think twice before attacking again.

CDR_McLir says:
CNS: But then he certainly surprised us all when we found out that he had been married.

CMO_Tren says:
*SO* It's possible

CMO_Tren says:
::begins doing as SO asked::

Host CO_Winters says:
XO: I think you should gather all the data from ours encounters and send them out to the federation colonies and ships around the Opeongo in case they are attacked.

SO_Weaver says:
*CMO*  Having little medical training myself, I did the best with what I could come up with in a short time...thanks.  Weaver out.

CNS_Mrai says:
CO: Sir, like I said the "O" has the mental thought pattern of a very scared little girl of approx. 10 years of age, why is she scared, what does the ShadowMan hold over her?

XO_Keorn says:
CO: Aye sir.  :: Collects the data and sends it off::

Host Shadowman says:
@ ::jury rigs many of the separate auxiliary core parts together to form a mostly-stable direct antimatter converter matrix. Not a real core, more like an antimatter atomic squash pile core::

CMO_Tren says:
::still putting a few things on the virus::

CDR_McLir says:
::Stands, motions for a young Ensign to take the helm.  Moves over to Winters::

Host CO_Winters says:
:: looks at McLir:: Thoughts?
