USS Vesuvius NCC71985
Background Radiation:  Episode [whatever]:  Prelude to war...

Previously on the USS Vesuvius:

The USS Vesuvius has sustained major damage in a firefight with three Jem'Hadar battle cruisers.

Several of the crew is wounded, and the ship is in shambles.  Sickbay is filled to capacity, and the ship is only now regaining engine function and sensors after 48 hours.

Weapons are offline, but nearing minimal capacity.  The sensors are regaining some clarity only in the last few minutes.

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Resume Mission >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Host CO Royce says:
:: In sickbay sitting up waiting to be released. ::

OPS Chaser says:
:: Sleeping fitfully in Sickbay. ::

CMO Zria says:
:: Looks through the patient’s records and then walks over to check on Captain Royce. ::

CTO Horn says:
:: In medical, just waking up from the hit on her head. ::

XO Kelson says:
:: At command. ::

Host CO Royce says:
:: Sees the CMO approach. ::

XO Kelson says:
TO: Estimated time of repairs to shields and weapons?

CMO Zria says:
CO:  How are you feeling, Captain?

TO Horn says:
:: At Tactical 1. ::

Host CO Royce says:
CMO:  I'm good, Doctor.  Can I return to duty?

CTO Horn says:
:: Gets up and checks her self. ::

CEO McGregor says:
:: In Main Engineering trying to regain some sense of order. ::

CIV McDonald says:
:: Laying on the biobed, looks over at Zria. ::   CMO: When you have a minute

XO Kelson says:
TO: Estimated time of repairs to shields and weapons?

CTO Horn says:
:: Looks around and sees the medical staff busy. ::

CMO Zria says:
:: Nods. ::   CO: Yes, Captain, your vitals have stabilized and your symbiont appears to be well now that the gravimetric eddies have stopped.  

CTO Horn says:
:: Decides to get up and head towards Bridge since she is feeling fine now. ::

Host CO Royce says:
:: Hops off the bio bed. ::   CMO:  Thank you doctor.  I'll leave you to your patients now.   :: Smiles at the CMO. ::

TO Horn says:
:: Is under the Tactical 1 console trying to repair it. ::

CMO Zria says:
CO:  Anytime Captain, take care of your self.   :: Smiles. ::

CTO Horn says:
:: Exits Medical. ::

Host CO Royce says:
:: Nods to the CMO and exits sickbay walking towards a turbolift. ::

OPS Chaser says:
:: Ducks an unseen assailant. ::

Host CO Royce says:
:: Enters the turbolift.  ::   Turbolift:  Bridge.

CIV McDonald says:
:: Sits up on the bio bed but then promptly gets dizzy and falls to the floor with a thud. ::

CTO Horn says:
:: Enters turbo lift with the CO. ::

CTO Horn says:
CO: Feeling better?

Host CO Royce says:
CTO:  Yes Cmdr.  Thank you.

TO Horn says:
:: Connects some wires and hears the console come to life. ::

CMO Zria says:
:: Turns around and heads toward the ICU unit where Lt. McDonald is. ::
CIV: What are you doing trying to get up so soon after surgery?   :: Calls an orderly over to help her get him back onto the bed. ::

CIV McDonald says:
CMO: Returning to duty…

TO Horn says:
:: Runs a diagnostic. ::

Host CO Royce says:
CTO:  I understand it was you who found me.

CMO Zria says:
:: Makes Lennier comfortable on the bed and dismisses the orderly. ::   CIV:  You have a choice, either lie here quietly and let your body heal or lie here in restraints.  Your body isn't ready for you to return to duty.   :: Gives him a stern look. ::

CTO Horn says:
CO: Actually it was the XO that first thought something was wrong. I just helped

XO Kelson says:
:: Moves around to Tactical. ::   TO: What's the status on our shields, Mr. Horn?

CMO Zria says:
CIV:  If you were close to being able to return to duty, I wouldn't have you here in ICU.

OPS Chaser says:
:: Swipes the air with her claws out. ::

Host CO Royce says:
:: Smiles at the CTO. ::   CTO:  Ah...well then, I'll thank him too.  But to you, thank you, Alex.   :: Looks forward as the doors open to the bridge. ::

CIV McDonald says:
CMO: But I'm fine Zria, look at my vitals…

TO Horn says:
XO: We have weapons at minimal, shields wont be up for another two hours.

CMO Zria says:
:: Looks at the sensor readings. ::   CIV: Your vitals are stable, but that doesn't mean that you should fine. ::

TO Horn says:
XO: We took quite a beating

Host CO Royce says:
:: Exits the turbolift and stands aside a moment to scan the bridge. ::

XO Kelson says:
TO: Let's make the shields a priority and cut that time down.  We don't want to get caught with our pants down...

Host CO Royce says:
Self:  Oh my...

CTO Horn says:
CO: No thanks needed. You would of done the same thing

Host CO Royce says:
:: Spies the XO. ::   XO:  Command Kelson...report!

TO Horn says:
TO: You got it sir, I will see what I can do.

Host CO Royce says:
:: Smiles at the CTO and nods. ::

CTO Horn says:
:: Looks over the bridge and then heads towards Tactical. ::

XO Kelson says:
CO: Ship's just how you left it, Ma'am...   :: Winks. ::

CIV McDonald says:
CMO: But, Zria, it’s just a bit of Orthostatic Hypotension.

Host CO Royce says:
:: Raises her left eyebrow... ::    XO:  Really Commander?

TO Horn says:
:: Climbs back under Tactical 1 and starts on the shields wiring. ::

Host CO Royce says:
:: Scans the bridge again... ::

CTO Horn says:
TO: What's happened while I was gone?

OPS Chaser says:
:: Growls low in her chest trying to pounce but is still restrained. ::

XO Kelson says:
CO: Sorry...we are 2 hours away from shields, weapons are minimal and I was about to check on engines.

Host CO Royce says:
:: Smiles at the XO... ::   XO:  A little levity is good, Cmdr.

Host CO Royce says:
XO:  2 hours!  What about that wormhole?

XO Kelson says:
CO: But you should know by now that I am rather rough on ships I command.

CMO Zria says:
CIV:  You are well on the road to recovery, but I don't want you taking things too quickly.   Lennier, you hade multiple broken bones, internal injuries, and synaptic damage due to exposure to radiation...that is considerably more than Orthostatic Hypotension.  Now, just stay there and rest or you'll be in restraints.

Host CO Royce says:
:: Laughs... ::   XO:  Don't I know!    :: Whispers to the XO. ::   I remember my shuttle report!   :: Grins at him. ::

CTO Horn says:
:: Looks around and sees the bridge is in a mess. ::

CIV McDonald says:
:: Grumbles and lays back down on the biobed. ::

TO Horn says:
CTO: I have been working on restoring weapons.

XO Kelson says:
:: Checks sensor array for readings on wormhole. ::

Host CO Royce says:
:: Wonders to herself how she is going to explain this mess to Starfleet Command... ::

CTO Horn says:
:: Walks over to and checks damage report, then sensors for any ships from the wormhole. ::

CMO Zria says:
CIV:  I'm not even sure with the amount of synaptic damage that you received that you will be able to use your empathic abilities.

OPS Chaser says:
:: Hisses her fur tinged red as she ducks again. ::

CIV McDonald says:
:: Stretches his mind out. ::   ~~~ALL: Anyone who can hear this…can you? ~~~

CMO Zria says:
CIV:  If you want something to do...then reach out with your senses to feel what is going on around the ship and outside it.  

XO Kelson says:
:: Shakes head. ::   CO: Looks like we might have some visitors soon.  We should start to move off and find someplace a little quieter.

Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  Lt. Lennier receives no answer to his telepathic call...

CIV McDonald says:
CMO: Nothing, I can't feel a bloody thing.

Host CO Royce says:
XO:  Perhaps, Cmdr.  But we are the only ship here and now.  We have to stop whatever comes through that thing...now

XO Kelson says:
*CEO* Kelson to Mac...How much warp can you give me?

Host CO Royce says:
CTO:  What's our fire power?

XO Kelson says:
CO: I am in total agreement Captain.  That is why we are in the spot we are in now.

CEO McGregor says:
*XO* Warp 1.1 to maybe 1.2 sir

XO Kelson says:
*CEO* Thank you...Kelson out.

CTO Horn says:
CO/XO: Since there is so much damage and so many injured, I recommend that we separate the saucer. At least that way our families and the injured will be safe until we take care of this mess

CEO McGregor says:
*XO* No promises sir

CMO Zria says:
:: Runs a tricorder over Lennier. ::   CIV:  Your synaptic tissue is still mending.  The surgical procedure has started that process, but it will be a while longer before you are able to use your senses.  Now, please rest and I'll be back in a little while to check on you.

TO Horn says:
CTO: Try the shields.

Host CO Royce says:
:: Thinks...then nods. ::   CTO:  Scan the area for a nebula where they might be able to hide.

CMO Zria says:
:: Leaves the ICU room and locks to door behind her as she heads for isolation. ::

XO Kelson says:
CTO: They'd be sitting ducks even if we let them get farther away...

OPS Chaser says:
:: Her feet alternate as if she is running away from something. ::

CTO Horn says:
:: Checks her board. ::   CO: Phaser’s at 30%, torpedoes at 70% and we are out of quantum torpedoes

CIV McDonald says:
:: Lays there just twiddling his thumbs. ::

CTO Horn says:
:: Checks her inventory. ::   CO: We have 125 regular torpedoes left

CMO Zria says:
:: Opens to door to isolation and makes her way over to Tigodan. ::   OPS:  How are you feeling, Tigodan?  

Host CO Royce says:
CTO: Has a call for assistance been sent?

CIV McDonald says:
:: Drifts off to sleep. ::

CTO Horn says:
CO: Since we are not supposed to be here, no signal was sent. But, if you wish we can send out a distress signal

CMO Zria says:
:: Looks over the sensors at the results from the injections and nods. ::
OPS:  What have you eaten today?   :: Asked as she looks at Tigodan's weight on the sensor display. ::

OPS Chaser says:
:: Throws her hands up over her face, as if something is attacking her. ::

Host CO Royce says:
CTO:  True, we are NOT suppose to be here...damn!

TO Horn says:
CTO: You up there?

Host Gerry says:
ACTION: The CO begins to feel a bit queasy

Host CO Royce says:
:: Sways just a little bit... ::

CTO Horn says:
CO: We do have tri-cobalt torpedoes in the inventory also

CMO Zria says:
:: Goes over and locks the door to the isolation chamber and then lowers the containment field so that she can move closer to her. ::

Host CO Royce says:
:: Swallows hard... ::  CTO:  Anything for the ship to hide in if we separate?

CTO Horn says:
TO: Yes sorry…Trying shields now.   :: Hits a couple of buttons and watches the status of the shields. ::

CMO Zria says:
:: Places a hand on her shoulder as she administers another dose of the serum and then injects her with supplements to build up her strength. ::

CTO Horn says:
CO: I don't see anything…No asteroids, nebulas. Nothing

Host Gerry says:
ACTION: Minimal shields flicker on for a moment then die...

OPS Chaser says:
:: Thrashes fitfully in her sleep. ::

Host CO Royce says:
:: Sighs. ::   XO/CTO:  Then Commanders, we are all in this together...one ship...one crew.

CTO Horn says:
TO: Almost had shields there. They just collapsed again

Host CO Royce says:
CTO:  Ready weapons

Host CO Royce says:
CTO/XO:  Is the phase conjugate beam functional?

XO Kelson says:
CO: As always, Captain

CMO Zria says:
:: Watches the sensor readouts stabilize from the treatment and then prepares a sedative to calm her down. ::   OPS:  Tigodan, its Zria, I need you to wake up now.   :: Touches her gently. ::

CTO Horn says:
CO: Weapons are ready, but I don't know how long they will last.

TO Horn says:
:: Swears a little and gets back to the wiring. ::

CTO Horn says:
TO: Try running through the secondary by-pass.

CIV McDonald says:
:: Tries getting up but falls back onto the bed. ::

Host CO Royce says:
CTO:  Take us to blackout...make it appear as if we are dead.  Repair teams must work as quietly as possible...let the Ves drift...

CTO Horn says:
CO:  The beam is ready

Host CO Royce says:
CTO:  Aim that beam directly at the opening to the wormhole.

CTO Horn says:
CO: Aye ma'am

XO Kelson says:
:: Keeps eye on wormhole through sensors. ::

Host CO Royce says:
XO/CTO:  Anything coming from that wormhole? What about that metallic thing?

CIV McDonald says:
:: Rolls off the biobed and hits the floor with a thud. ::

CTO Horn says:
:: Cuts power to all systems, takes as much offline as possible and tries to make it appear that they are dead. ::

CMO Zria says:
<Rachelle>:: Checks on Commander Trelan and then continues on her rounds. ::

OPS Chaser says:
:: Feels a warm touch and struggles to open her eyes. ::

CTO Horn says:
CO: Beam is aimed at the worm hole and appears to be ready

XO Kelson says:
CO: Just rising graviton concentration...

CMO Zria says:
:: Senses the anxiety in Chaser and tries to use her abilities to sooth her. ::   OPS:  Can you hear me, Tigodan?

CIV McDonald says:
:: Taps his combadge. ::   CMO: HELP! I rolled off the bed!

Host CO Royce says:
CTO:  Good.  We won't use it quiet yet.

TO Horn says:
CTO: I am trying everything I know here.

OPS Chaser says:
:: Jumps but is still restrained and blinks her eyes open. ::

Host Gerry says:
ACTION: The telepathic touch of Zria is enough to calm the OPS officer...

TO Horn says:
CTO: Try that.

CTO Horn says:
:: Helps the TO with the re-wiring to get things working again. ::

CMO Zria says:
:: Contacts an orderly to help McDonald back to bed. ::   *CIV* Someone will be there in a moment to help you.

Host CO Royce says:
XO:  What's our engine status?

CIV McDonald says:
*CMO* Thank you

CTO Horn says:
:: Hits the shields button. ::

Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  Shields flicker, and then stay on at 20%

OPS Chaser says:
:: Focuses in on the bald lady, her eyes widen. ::

XO Kelson says:
CO: We have some impulse and warp 1.1 or 1.2 capability.

CMO Zria says:
<Orderly>:: Enters the ICU unit and helps the CIV back onto the bed. ::
CIV:  Here, let me help you up.  Do you want me to stay in here with you while you rest?

Host CO Royce says:
:: Nods at the XO. ::   XO: We'll reserve that power for now.

CTO Horn says:
ALL: We have shields. Only at 20% for now

CTO Horn says:
TO: Good work down there

CIV McDonald says:
Orderly: No thanks

Host CO Royce says:
CTO: Cut shields.  We need to look dead.

TO Horn says:
Self: Yes! That’s a start.

CTO Horn says:
CO: Yes ma'am

CTO Horn says:
:: Cuts shields. ::

Host CO Royce says:
CTO:  Besides, it might help with the power when we actually need them

Host CO Royce says:
:: Moves down the ramp to her chair. ::

CTO Horn says:
CO: Yes ma'am. Just needed to see if they worked or not

Host CO Royce says:
CTO: Understood, Cmdr.

CMO Zria says:
:: Keeps her hand on Tigodan to calm her. ::   OPS:  I'm going to release the restraints so that you can get up and stretch.  The treatments to balance your metabolic functions have been successful so far and you only have two more to go.  Then we'll start working more with Counselor Shirley.  :: Smiles as she talks softly to her. ::

CMO Zria says:
<Orderly>:: Nods. ::   CIV:  Ok, if you need anything, just let one of us know...  rest well.   :: Closes and locks the door behind him. ::

Host CO Royce says:
:: Brushes a few pieces of debris from her chair and sits gently in it. ::

OPS Chaser says:
:: Cowers and nods, her glowing orange eyes trained on the CMO. ::

Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  Graviton beams begin to flow into the structure, which begins to glow red, then white...

Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  The CO begins to feel dizzy...

Host CO Royce says:
:: Places a hand to her head, feeling a bit dizzy... ::

CIV McDonald says:
:: Slides a loaded hypospray out and stabs it at the Orderly's neck. ::

XO Kelson says:
CO: Captain...something is happening in the wormhole...

CMO Zria says:
:: Releases the restraints so that Tigodan can get up and move about. ::
OPS:  I've locked the door so there isn't any reason to try to get away, but I want you to move around a bit to build up your strength.

XO Kelson says:
CO: I hope this possum ploy works...

Host CO Royce says:
XO:  Talk to me, Sam!  What's going on?

CTO Horn says:
CO: Looks like company is coming

Host CO Royce says:
CTO/XO:  What do we have, Commanders?

OPS Chaser says:
:: Blinks her eyes slowly and swings her legs over the edge, almost falling on the floor. ::

Host CO Royce says:
:: Still has her hand to her head fighting the feeling of being dizzy... ::

Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  The CO begins to sink back into the chair...

CTO Horn says:
CO: You alright Ma'am

CMO Zria says:
<Orderly>:: Sees the CIV's reflection in the window and turns knocking the hypospray from his hand:: CIV:  I believe Dr. Zria ordered restraints for you...
:: Pushes him back onto the bed and activates the restraining field. ::   *CMO* Doctor, when you have a moment, you may want to check on Lieutenant McDonald to make sure that he hasn't re-injured himself.

Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  The Artificial Wormhole begins to pulsate with power flow from neighboring stars...

CIV McDonald says:
:: Struggles against the restraints. ::

Host CO Royce says:
:: Fights the dizzy spell... ::

CMO Zria says:
:: Steadies Tigodan as she slides off the bed. ::   OPS:  Let me help you until you feel up to moving around on your own.

Host CO Royce says:
:: Struggles to cough out commands... ::

XO Kelson says:
CO: We have a huge amount of power being drawn into the wormhole.

OPS Chaser says:
:: Feels wobbly in the knees and sits back down, quickly rolling herself into a ball on the biobed. ::

Host CO Royce says:
CTO: Act...ti...vate...

CMO Zria says:
:: Keeps a reassuring hand on her as she helps her move around. ::   *Orderly* Understood...put him in restraints if you have to, I don't want him hurting himself.   :: Frowns. ::

Host CO Royce says:
CTO:  Activate the...

Host CO Royce says:
CTO:  Activate the phase conjugate beam

Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  Streams of plasma from the surrounding stars stream into the center of the structure...

CTO Horn says:
:: Looks at the CO. ::

CTO Horn says:
CO: Aye ma'am. Firing beam now

XO Kelson says:
:: Too busy watching the wormhole readouts to see the Captain having trouble. ::

Host CO Royce says:
:: Head begins to pound as the dizziness increases. ::

XO Kelson says:
CO: It's going to happen any second...

Host Gerry says:
ACTION: the Wormhole spirals open to admit whatever is coming through...

XO Kelson says:
CO: Here it comes...whatever it is...

Host CO Royce says:
:: Nods as she hears the XO. ::

OPS Chaser says:
CMO: Can I have a hair-r br-rush?

CMO Zria says:
:: Rubs Tigodan's shoulder. ::   OPS:  I'm going to leave the restraints off and containment field down.  However the door to the room will be secured to keep you from leaving.  If you need anything don't hesitate to call me or Counselor Shirley and we'll get it for you...and when you're ready to try getting up again, let one of us know...you need to try to exercise some.   

Host CO Royce says:
CTO:  Fire all that we have and keep that beam on the opening!

Host Gerry says:
ACTION: The phase conjugate beam nullifies the wormhole and begins a reverse reaction...blue lightning-like surges can be seen along its length...

CTO Horn says:
CO: Aye ma'am

CTO Horn says:
:: Does what the CO ordered. ::

XO Kelson says:
CO/CTO: It's working...

Host CO Royce says:
:: Tilts head back with eyes closed fighting the dizziness... ::

Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  The CO's dizziness ceases...

Host CO Royce says:
:: Begins to feel better...sits up in her chair and focuses on the viewscreen in front of her... ::

CIV McDonald says:
:: Yells out. ::   Computer: Open a comm to the CMO!   *CMO* Get me out of the bloody restraints!

CTO Horn says:
:: Shifts view between her board and the viewscreen. ::

CMO Zria says:
:: Smiles. ::   OPS:  Of course, I'll get you one...   :: Moves over to the storage compartments and retrieves a hairbrush and a few other grooming supplies. ::   OPS:  I'm not sure what of these you would like to use, but here are some clippers, nail polish, a nail file, and a few other goodies.

Host Gerry says:
ACITON:  Incredible energies are beginning to draw all matter within range into a growing vortex...

CNS Shirley says:
OPS:  Wind was fed and here are your clothes you want and your pillow.  Is there anything I can do for you OPS Chaser?

XO Kelson says:
CO: Any moment now...

Host CO Royce says:
:: Clears her head and trains her eyes on the viewscreen. ::

Host CO Royce says:
CTO:  Stand ready to raise shields

CMO Zria says:
*CIV* Lieutenant McDonald, I'll release the restraints after I've examined you and only after I believe you aren't a danger to yourself!

Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  The Vesuvius begins to be drawn into the vortex...

CTO Horn says:
CO: Shields standing by

OPS Chaser says:
:: Holds on to the hairbrush and tries to sit up. ::

CNS Shirley says:
OPS: You want some help?

CTO Horn says:
CO: Sensors show that we are being drawn into the vortex

Host CO Royce says:
ALL:  Power engines and reverse as hard as we can!  Shields up!  Fire into the vortex!

OPS Chaser says:
:: Nods to the Counselor. ::

Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  The Vesuvius begins to drift closer to the vortex, nearing the event horizon...

CTO Horn says:
:: Raises shields. ::

OPS Chaser says:
:: Sits crossed legged on the biobed trying not to fall over. ::

Host CO Royce says:
CTO:  Shut down all non-essential systems and use that power to back us up!

CMO Zria says:
CNS: I'm going to leave the restraints off and the containment field down for now, however we'll need to keep the door secured at all times.  She'll have more freedom this way and considering the success of the treatment so far, I'd like for her to have it and to have the chance to move around and build up strength.

CMO Zria says:
CNS:  I think too, that we are ready to start talking about the next phase of her treatment.

Host Gerry says:
ACTION: the Vesuvius begins to accelerate toward the vortex with no one at the helm...

CTO Horn says:
CO: Yes ma'am.   :: Slaves helm control to her panel and re-routes power to engines and tries to back away form the thing in front. ::

CNS Shirley says:
CMO:  Am I allowed to help her with her brushing her hair...if needed...And yes I think we do need to talk about it as well.

Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  the Vesuvius begins to shake violently, but pull away from the vortex...

Host CO Royce says:
:: Holds tightly to her chair. ::

OPS Chaser says:
:: Tries to brush out her tail but sees three tails and can't seem to get the right one. ::

CMO Zria says:
:: Strokes Tigodan's shoulder again. ::   OPS:  If you need anything else, let one of us know....   CNS: Of course, Counselor, you're welcome to stay and help her in any way that she wants or needs.   :: Smiles. ::

CIV McDonald says:
:: Rattles around in the restraints. ::

CTO Horn says:
:: Re-directs some power to the dampeners to help with the shaking. ::

OPS Chaser says:
:: Purrs at the CMO despite herself. ::

Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  Systems around the ship begin to fail as she begins to shake more violently...

Host CO Royce says:
ALL:  Report!

OPS Chaser says:
:: Feels the ship shake and dives under the bed. ::

CTO Horn says:
:: Gives power to the Structural Integrity Field also. ::

CNS Shirley says:
CMO: Thank you.   :: Walks over to OPS. ::   OPS: Want some help on brushing your tail?  If you do you will have to come out from under there.  I refuse to get on the floor to brush your tail sitting on the floor.

CMO Zria says:
CNS/OPS:  If you'll excuse me, I need to check on another patient.   :: Feels the ship shaking. ::   OPS: There's no need to hide, it's just something with the ship; we'll be fine...

XO Kelson says:
CO: We are pulling away but the ship can't take much of this shaking in its condition...

Host CO Royce says:
*CEO* We need more power to engines, Lt!

Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  The Vortex implodes on itself...

CNS Shirley says:
CMO: Of course....

CTO Horn says:
CO: I have routed as much power I can to the dampeners and the Structural Integrity Field

CMO Zria says:
:: Nods to the CNS and leaves her to take care of Tigodan for a bit while she checks on Lennier...locks the door behind her as she leaves. ::

Host CO Royce says:
:: Nods as her hears the XO and CTO. ::

XO Kelson says:
CO: There she implodes!

Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  The resulting explosion sends out a shockwave...

CEO McGregor says:
*CO* Doing the best I can Sir

XO Kelson says:
CO: Incoming shockwave!

Host CO Royce says:
:: Hits a button… ::   Ship wide:  All hands, brace for in-coming shock wave!

OPS Chaser says:
:: Tries to drag the CNS under the bed. ::

CMO Zria says:
:: Makes her way to ICU in spite of the rocking of the ship...using the corners of beds to keep her balance. ::

CTO Horn says:
:: Holds on for dear life. ::

Host CO Royce says:
:: Watches the shockwave approach. ::

Host CO Royce says:
:: Holds tightly to her armrests. ::

CNS Shirley says:
:: Steps back and says… ::   OPS: Nope!  Come out here and let me brush your tail

OPS Chaser says:
:: Holds her breath. ::

CEO McGregor says:
:: Hits buttons feverishly. ::

CMO Zria says:
:: Enters Lennier's room and sees him there in restraints. ::   CIV: How are you holding up?   :: Prepares a sedative to help him sleep so that his synaptic pathways can continue to heal. ::

Host CO Royce says:
Ship wide:  I repeat...all hands brace for in-coming shock wave!

Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  The shockwave slams into the Vesuvius, carrying the ship as a leaf in the ocean...All the crew is thrown to the ground, and all lights go out everywhere...
