USS Vesuvius, NCC-71985
Stardate 10309.30
Episode 11

From one mystery to the next…

The entity possessing the CSO was able to finally communicate to the crew explaining she and her companion were travelers, curious when they passed the Bajoran vessel. When they went to learn about its occupant, one was caught in the switching device.

Grateful to be released, this entity wanted to learn about humans and to express her gratitude. She and her companion have now left the Vesuvius and all reports of malfunctions from around the ship have now ceased.

The Vesuvius is now in orbit around Sarius III. There has been no response to hails from the settlement below.

The CTO received information from Starfleet Command of new orders and suddenly found herself leaving the Vesuvius.

Meanwhile, the FCO was called away for a bit.  An Away Team, comprised of the FCO and OPS, is currently pending.  When the Away Team is finalized they will investigate the silence, which befalls the planet below…

Host XO Horn says:
:: In her quarters ::

Host CO Kelson says:
:: On way to sickbay ::

CEO Davis says:
:: On the Bridge, receiving reports from all decks that show things have returned to normal ::

Host XO Horn says:
:: Looks around and then at herself ::

CSO Lane says:
:: Walking to sickbay with the Captain ::   CO: Sam, do I have to do this?

FCO Lorehani says:
:: Cursing Ens Richards once more, she leaves shuttle bay two where Richards in his infinite wisdom decided to crash a shuttle. Although, Cadet Toran is also to blame since they decided to play chicken in such a small place. ::

Host CO Kelson says:
:: Looks at PADD ::   CSO: I guess we lost our CTO.  I'm sorry...do what?

Host XO Horn says:
:: Goes to her closet and gets a clean uniform out ::

Host XO Horn says:
:: Changes ::

CSO Lane says:
CO: Go to sickbay silly. Boy it doesn't take much to have you lose your train of thought does it?

FCO Lorehani says:
:: Entering the turbolift she types furiously onto her PADD. ::   Computer:  Bridge.

CEO Davis says:
:: Satisfied with the reports, he gets up and slowly wanders to the Operations station, looking over the officer's shoulder to see if the attempts to contact the planet are succeeding at all ::

Host CO Kelson says:
:: Chuckles ::   CSO: No it doesn't.  Yes, we are still going to sickbay.

Host XO Horn says:
:: Once changed exits her quarters ::

CSO Lane says:
:: Grumbles under her breath ::   Self: Short train.

Host OPS-Insider says:
:: Looks over her shoulder at the CEO, shakes her head in the negative ::

FCO Lorehani says:
::Types...irresponsible, pig headiness, insubordination, irreparably stupid... ::

Host CO Kelson says:
*XO* Kelson to Commander Horn.  Report to shuttle bay 1 for Away Team assignment.

CEO Davis says:
:: Nods, silently cursing to himself ::

Host XO Horn says:
:: Enters nearest turbo lift ::

Host OPS-Insider says:
:: Continues to hail the settlement ::

Host XO Horn says:
*CO*: Understood. On my way

Host XO Horn says:
Computer: Shuttlebay 1

FCO Lorehani says:
:: Feels the turbolift stop and she stomps onto the bridge. ::

CSO Lane says:
:: Looks up at the Captain ::   CO: I don't suppose I get to go do I?   :: Pouts slightly ::

Host XO Horn says:
:: Feels the slight jolt of the lift as it moves through the ship ::

CEO Davis says:
:: Folds hands behind back and wanders to the adjacent flight control console, then back to the Captain's chair ::

Host CO Kelson says:
*FCO* Captain to Lorehani...sorry for the delay.  Report to shuttlebay 1 and join Commander Horn.  Brief her on the Away Team mission.

Host CO Kelson says:
CSO: Not at the moment, no...need to check that pretty little head of yours first.   :: Smiles ::

FCO Lorehani says:
:: Taps combadge ::  *CO*: Aye Sir...   :: Sighs as she looks at her comfy
chair. ::   Oh Sir, Shuttle bay two has been closed down for repairs...the report on the dimwits...err culprits will be on your desk momentarily.

CEO Davis says:
:: Notices Lorehani ::   FCO: I was going to say.  I thought you guys were ready to go already.

Host XO Horn says:
:: Exits turbolift and heads towards the shuttle bay ::

Host CO Kelson says:
*FCO* Looking forward to it.  Kelson out.

CSO Lane says:
CO: Oh let's get this over with then. Pick up the pace man!   :: Grins and walks ahead of him ::

Host XO Horn says:
:: Enters shuttlebay and looks around ::

Host CO Kelson says:
:: Hurries to catch up ::

Host XO Horn says:
Self: For there to be an Away Team, there has to be more than one person

FCO Lorehani says:
CEO: Hey   :: Smiles ::   So did I, ‘til I got a call about an incident in Shuttlebay 2...hmmm you are going to need some repair teams down there....and some security to take Richards and Toran into custody...but I think they were running there before I finished yelling...I can't believe that…I don't yell!   :: Talking at the top of her voice. ::

Host CO Kelson says:
CSO: If I showed no interest in your health, what would you think then, Ms. Lane?

CEO Davis says:
:: Frowns ::   FCO: Repair teams?

Host XO Horn says:
:: Waits patiently for somebody else to show up ::

CSO Lane says:
:: Stops and faces Sam ::   CO: Probably that the little redhead in engineering caught your eye again dear.   :: Giggles and walks towards the sickbay doors ::

CEO Davis says:
:: Looks down at a blinking light on the console on the Captain's chair; he sits and accesses it, only to see the report on what he thinks Lorehani is about to say ::

FCO Lorehani says:
CEO: Two nitwits playing chicken with some shuttles.  Couple nice little holes in the bay…   :: Runs a hand through her hair. ::   I better get to the other WORKING shuttlebay...Oh   :: Tosses him a PADD ::   Can you see the Capt gets this?

Host CO Kelson says:
:: Follows CSO into sickbay ::

CEO Davis says:
:: Looks at the PADD just in time to see it smack into his side and fall to the ground ::   FCO: Err, sure, I'll do that.

Host CO Kelson says:
:: Feigns interest ::   CSO: There's a redhead in engineering?  Interesting...

Host XO Horn says:
:: Walks around, hearing her footsteps echo through out the bay ::

FCO Lorehani says:
:: Gives him a wave ::   CEO: Thanks!   :: Re-enters the turbolift. ::
Computer: Shuttlebay 1.

CEO Davis says:
:: Picks up the PADD, not really noting anything on it since he's about to alert the shift's repair team to the Shuttle Bay's problems ::

CSO Lane says:
:: Sticks out her tongue at Sam and smiles::   All: Hello, anyone here?

Host CMO-Han says:
:: Sees the CSO and CO enter ::   CO/CSO: Captain...Commander...what can I do for you?

CSO Lane says:
CMO: Talk to the Captain, Doc. He forced me to come.

Host CMO-Han says:
:: Looks over to the Captain ::   CO: Sir?

Host CO Kelson says:
CMO: Just a routine check under the hood for our lucky CSO.   :: Smiles ::  She ran into some over-interested aliens.

FCO Lorehani says:
:: The turbolift comes to a sudden stop and she exits.  Quickly makes her way to the shuttlebay and enters.  Looks around for any other warm bodies. ::

Host XO Horn says:
:: Continues to walk around and ends up on the far side of the bay ::

FCO Lorehani says:
Shuttlebay:  Hello!

CSO Lane says:
CO/CMO: Hey she ran into me!   :: Jumps up onto a biobed ::

Host CMO-Han says:
:: Raises an eyebrow ::   CO:  Hmm...is that why her alpha brain wave pattern was slightly...um...off?   :: Motions to a bio bed for the CSO to take ::

Host XO Horn says:
FCO: Over here  :: Moves towards the middle of the bay ::

Host CO Kelson says:
CMO: I'll wait for you to make that determination, Doc.

CEO Davis says:
:: Receives confirmation from Main Engineering on the dispatching of the repair teams; he sits back and just stares at the view screen from an angle that isn't too familiar ::

Host XO Horn says:
:: Walks towards the FCO ::

FCO Lorehani says:
:: Smiles ::   XO: Hello Ma'am. Sorry about the delay...slight incident in shuttlebay two…   :: Hands her a copy of the PADD that was sent to the Capt. ::

Host CMO-Han says:
:: Nods and begins to scan the CSO ::

CSO Lane says:
CMO: Slightly off? Golly, makes me sound like I'm not all there.

Host XO Horn says:
:: Takes the PADD ::  FCO: So, what has been happening?

Host CO Kelson says:
:: Bites his lip to keep from commenting ::

FCO Lorehani says:
XO: We've lost communication with the planet.  Surface scans reveal no bio signs. Capt would like us to take a look.

CSO Lane says:
:: Catches Sam's look but says nothing ::

Host XO Horn says:
FCO: Well, lets get to it then   :: Smiles ::

Host CMO-Han says:
:: Smiles just a bit ::   CO/CSO: I wasn't concerned at first. At times the alpha brain waves of all species can be a little...off...from their normal readings.  But a good once over is advisable.   :: Continues to scan the CSO ::

FCO Lorehani says:
XO:  There is a possibility that the colonist could be hiding in some caves near by but until we get to the control center and see if what happened is recorded we are not going to know.   :: Walks over to the shuttle and reaches for the control to open the door. ::

Host XO Horn says:
FCO: Understood  :: Follows the FCO to the shuttle ::

CSO Lane says:
CMO: Well? Am I ok doc?

Host CMO-Han says:
:: Grins at the silent exchange between the CO and CSO and completes her scan... ::

FCO Lorehani says:
:: Stands back as the door opens.  Once fully opens she enters heading straight to the front and takes her seat. ::   XO:  Come on in Ma'am…it will take a few moments to power up.

Host CO Kelson says:
CMO: I glad you told her that Doc...   :: Gives a "I told you so" look to the CSO ::

Host CMO-Han says:
CSO/CO: I don't see anything unusual.  In fact, your alpha brain patterns are back to normal...I'd give you a clean bill of heath

Host XO Horn says:
:: Right behind the FCO and takes the passenger seat ::

CEO Davis says:
:: Comes to attention, changing his console to a readout of the surrounding electromagnetic background, wondering if something is blocking their transmission ::

FCO Lorehani says:
:: Begins power up sequence...green lights coming across the board. ::

CSO Lane says:
CO: See I told you so. Now can I get back to work?   :: Dangles her feet off the bed ::

Host XO Horn says:
FCO: I suggest that when we reach the surface, that we do a quick fly by and scan the area before we land

Host CO Kelson says:
CSO: That's what the Doc said.  No more slacking on the job.  Get to the bridge!

FCO Lorehani says:
:: Listens as the engines come to life.  Taps her console. ::   XO: Aye Ma'am…would you mind monitoring sensors?

Host CMO-Han says:
:: Grins at the pair, then excuses himself from them going to another patient ::

FCO Lorehani says:
*CEO*: Requesting permission to depart.

Host XO Horn says:
FCO: Not a problem

CEO Davis says:
:: Doesn't see anything electromagnetic that is blocking the signal, and with no other detectable ships in the vicinity a block is unlikely ::

CSO Lane says:
:: Jumps down and gives him a fast salute ::   CO: Yes sir.   :: Heads for the
door ::   Coming Captain?

CEO Davis says:
:: Quickly scans the area surrounding the ship ::   *FCO*: Permission granted.  Stay in touch.

Host CO Kelson says:
CSO: You bet...::follows CSO::

Host XO Horn says:
FCO: What...no music.

Host CO Kelson says:
CMO: Thanks Doc!   :: Exits sickbay ::

FCO Lorehani says:
*CEO*:  Will do.   :: Angles the ship towards the door. Engaging thrusters she pushes forward.  She turns and grins at Cmdr Horn. ::   XO: Of course music...   :: Turns on her Andorian Folk Music ::

Host XO Horn says:
:: Taps a few buttons on the console and brings the sensors online ::

CSO Lane says:
:: Smiles and walks out first ::   CO: Sure you don't want to stay and check out the new nurse over there?   :: Nods to the woman as the doors close ::

Host XO Horn says:
:: Smiles ::

CEO Davis says:
:: Maintains lock on the transponder signals from Horn's and Lorehani's comm badges, not wanting to lose senior officers on his first bridge watch ::

FCO Lorehani says:
@:: Exiting the ship she angles towards the planet...she begins the descent. ::

Host CO Kelson says:
CSO: I am blind to any other in the aura of you, Hope.

Host Sheri says:
ACTION:  As the shuttle enters the atmosphere, they experience slight turbulence

Host XO Horn says:
@FCO: Beginning to scan

Host XO Horn says:
@:: Watches her panel as information from the sensors begin to appear ::

CSO Lane says:
:: Rolls her eyes at him ::   CO: Sure you are Sam.   :: Enters the lift ::

FCO Lorehani says:
@:: Fingers fly over the console compensating for the turbulence. ::   XO:  Hang on Ma'am, it's getting a little rough.

Host XO Horn says:
@FCO: I have flown through worse, trust me

Host Sheri says:
ACTION: The FCO compensates for the turbulence and the shuttle continues towards the planet

CSO Lane says:
:: Begins to search the lift as if looking for something ::

FCO Lorehani says:
@:: Chuckles ::

FCO Lorehani says:
@XO:  Where did you want to start the fly over?

Host CO Kelson says:
CSO: I’m hurt!  Don't you believe me, Ms. Lane?   :: Feigns disbelief ::

CEO Davis says:
:: Continues monitoring the shuttle as it approaches the surface ::

Host XO Horn says:
@FCO: Lets start with the city and go from there

CSO Lane says:
:: Continues to search ::   CO: Huh?

FCO Lorehani says:
@:: Nods and plots a course to the city. ::

Host XO Horn says:
@:: Begins to concentrate on the sensors readings, paying close attention to energy signatures ::

Host CO Kelson says:
CSO: Did you lose something?

CSO Lane says:
:: Looks up with a puzzled look on her face ::   CO: That's very strange, very strange indeed.

Host CO Kelson says:
CSO: Okay...I'll bite.  What is it?

CSO Lane says:
CO: Well I can't seem to find my aura anywhere. Have you seen it by chance?

FCO Lorehani says:
@:: Breaks through and pulls the shuttle up.  Smiles because she exits exactly where she wanted. ::   XO:  Beginning fly over.

Host Sheri says:
ACTION:  The XO gets an energy reading from the lake near the settlement

Host XO Horn says:
@:: As the shuttle gets closer, also begins to scan for life signs ::

Host CO Kelson says:
:: Smiles ::

CSO Lane says:
:: Breaks in a wide grin ::   CO: Gotcha Sam!

Host XO Horn says:
@FCO: There is an energy reading by the lake

Host CO Kelson says:
:: At that moment, doors open to the bridge ::

Host Sheri says:
ACTION: A small explosion occurs in shuttle bay 2...

CSO Lane says:
CO: After you Captain.   ::Motions to the bridge ::

FCO Lorehani says:
@:: Sees the lake… ::   XO:  Ok, heading there...   :: Brings the shuttle lower and slows her down to 1/4 impulse. ::

CEO Davis says:
:: Hears the blue alert immediately and looks to the console ::

Host XO Horn says:
@:: Concentrates the sensors on the source of the energy readings ::

Host CO Kelson says:
:: Whispers ::   CSO: We'll see how I can get you back later, Ms. Lane.
:: Gives her rear a pat on the way out of the turbolift ::

CEO Davis says:
:: Not getting any reports yet to his console ::

Host CO Kelson says:
CEO: Status, Mr. Davis...

FCO Lorehani says:
@:: Is flying just above the water line ::

CSO Lane says:
:: Pretends to be shocked as she heads to the science console ::

CEO Davis says:
CO: There's a blue alert in Shuttle Bay 2.  Some sort of explosion...no reports in yet…

Host XO Horn says:
@FCO: Getting very high radiation readings and energy readings. Trying to localize now

Host CO Kelson says:
CSO: Get a damage report from shuttle bay 2, Ms. Lane.

CSO Lane says:
:: Brings up the internal sensor readings ::   CO: Confirming sir. We have multiple explosions.

CEO Davis says:
:: Begins to get up just as the first report comes in ::

FCO Lorehani says:
@XO: I'll circle around if I have to...   :: Begins to circle the lake. ::

CSO Lane says:
CO: On it sir.

CEO Davis says:
CO: There's a plasma fire, but it looks like it is being contained by the bay's fire suppression systems.

Host XO Horn says:
:: Nods her head towards the FCO ::

Host CO Kelson says:
CEO: What is the away team's status?

Host CO Kelson says:
:: Nods at information given by CEO ::

CEO Davis says:
CO: Last I checked they were just about to reach the surface.

Host XO Horn says:
@FCO: Narrowed the readings down. It is above ground at these
co-ordinates

CSO Lane says:
*Shuttle bay 2*: Shuttle bay, bridge here. I need a damage report like yesterday people!

FCO Lorehani says:
@:: Takes a quick look at the coordinates and puts them in. ::   XO:  Ok, give me a minute and will be there.

Host CO Kelson says:
:: Motions OPS to hail shuttle ::

CEO Davis says:
:: Heads back up to the aft engineering station ::

Host Sheri says:
ACTION:  The is no answer from shuttle bay 2

Host XO Horn says:
@:: Continues to scan as the shuttle begins to land ::

FCO Lorehani says:
@:: Reaches the coordinates the Cmdr indicated. ::

CSO Lane says:
CO: Captain, I can't raise shuttle bay 2 on the channel.

Host CO Kelson says:
CSO: Send a medical team.

CSO Lane says:
CO: Aye sir, will do.

FCO Lorehani says:
@::Lands with barely a thud.::

Host XO Horn says:
@FCO: I am reading high concentration of the virus

Host CO Kelson says:
CSO: Check with adjoining sections to see if they know anything.

CEO Davis says:
CO, CSO: I'll head there as well.   :: Bolts into the turbolift ::

CSO Lane says:
:: Taps the panel ::   *Sickbay*: Medical emergency shuttle bay 2. Send a team now!

CEO Davis says:
Turbolift: Shuttle Bay 2!

FCO Lorehani says:
@XO:  We've all been vaccinated so we should be ok…you want to use EVA suits in case?

CSO Lane says:
CO: Yes Captain.

Host CMO Han says:
*CSO*: Acknowledged...   :: Waves at the emergency team and they leave sickbay ::

Host CO Kelson says:
CSO: You have to like his initiative...

Host XO Horn says:
@FCO: I don't think that will be necessary.

Host XO Horn says:
@FCO: Unless you plan on staying that is

CEO Davis says:
:: Taps foot, anxious to get out and help ::

CSO Lane says:
:: Looks up momentarily ::   CO: Excuse me sir?

FCO Lorehani says:
@:: Gets up and goes over to the weapons locker and opens it.  Pulls out two phaser’s.  Bending down she also retrieves one of the med kits.  Hands the Cmdr one of the phaser’s. ::   XO:  Ready when you are.   Stay naaa...the dust interferes with my antenna...

CEO Davis says:
:: Nearly smacks into the lift's doors as they open and sprints out towards Shuttle Bay 2 ::

Host CO Kelson says:
CSO: Our CEO who just left for shuttle bay 2.

Host CO Kelson says:
*Kelson*: Kelson to Commander Horn.  Anything to report?

Host XO Horn says:
@:: Accepts the equipment ::

CSO Lane says:
:: Shakes her head and contacts the other sections near shuttle bay two ::

CEO Davis says:
:: Reaches the bay and does run into its doors; the door's sensor doesn't seem to be working ::

FCO Lorehani says:
@:: Opens the door to the shuttle. ::

CEO Davis says:
:: Accesses the console, attempting to manually override to open the door ::

Host XO Horn says:
@*CO*: We just landed. We are investigating some unusual readings

Host CO Kelson says:
COMM: Shuttle: Take precautions.  No idea what you are walking into.

CEO Davis says:
:: Watches as the door begins to open, but stop halfway as the console sparks and overloads for some reason ::

Host XO Horn says:
@*CO*: Understood

Host CO Kelson says:
CSO: Get a lock on the away team just in case.

FCO Lorehani says:
@:: Exits the shuttle and immediately pulls out her tricorder scanning. ::

CSO Lane says:
CO: Captain, reports just in from the other areas around the shuttle bay. They are aware of the emergency but don't have anything else yet.

Host XO Horn says:
@:: Follows the FCO out ::

Host CO Kelson says:
CSO: Very good.  We'll just have to wait and see.

Host XO Horn says:
@FCO: Anything on the tricorder?

CEO Davis says:
:: Decides he can squeeze through, and does so successfully; there's no fire there any longer, but the forcefields are still up ::

CEO Davis says:
:: Runs around somewhat frantically, searching for survivors ::

CSO Lane says:
CO: Shall I go and see if I can help Mr. Davis out?

CEO Davis says:
:: Frowns, not seeing anyone at all ::

FCO Lorehani says:
@:: Frowns at the readings ::   XO:  I'm getting a very faint bio signatures...
:: She points towards the caves. ::   Over there...

Host CO Kelson says:
CSO: No with the medical team, he should have plenty of help.  Just keep a focus on the away team.

Host XO Horn says:
@FCO: Shall we then?

CEO Davis says:
*CO*: Davis to Kelson, the fire seems to be contained.  I'm not seeing anyone in the bay, injured or otherwise.

CSO Lane says:
CO: Of course Captain. I have them on my sensors.

FCO Lorehani says:
@XO:  Aye...   :: Adjusts her med kit. ::   Hmmm, you'll have to play security...my hands are kinda full.   :: Shrugs and grins ::

Host CO Kelson says:
*CEO* Any idea what caused the explosion?

CEO Davis says:
:: Reaches into the supply locker next to him and removes a tricorder, then approaches the spot where the force field is still functioning and scans ::

Host XO Horn says:
@FCO: I always play security.

FCO Lorehani says:
@:: Chuckles ::

CEO Davis says:
*CO*: Definitely a plasma fire, though I'm still not completely sure on its cause.  I'll keep on it.

FCO Lorehani says:
@:: Follows the tricorder readings ::

Host XO Horn says:
@:: Looks around and sees a shinny metal object in the lake near the shore ::

Host XO Horn says:
@FCO: What do you make of that?  :: Points towards the metal object ::

Host CO Kelson says:
*CEO* Thank you, Mr. Davis.  I'll wait for your report.  Kelson out.

FCO Lorehani says:
@:: Turns to where the Cmdr is pointing… ::   XO: Hmmm don't know.   :: Scans the object ::

CEO Davis says:
Computer: Computer, deactivate fire suppression force fields.

Host XO Horn says:
@FCO: It can't be a coincidence that the object is where there is a high concentration of the virus

CEO Davis says:
:: Approaches the nearest console and attempts to access it, but it is not functional; upon scanning, he realizes that it wasn't damaged by the fire itself ::

CSO Lane says:
:: Glances over at the Captain ::   CO: Sam, I see that worried look on your face.

Host CO Kelson says:
CSO: Just don't like so many unanswered questions...

FCO Lorehani says:
@XO:  Well, it looks like a dumping ground for metallic junk.   :: Disgusted ::   You think they could have found a better place to dispose of it wouldn't.   Err wait...   :: Double checks her tricorder... ::   …it's from the Bajoran ship from a couple weeks ago.  That would explain the virus.

Host XO Horn says:
@FCO: I bet that metal object has Bajoran markings on it.

CSO Lane says:
:: Nods ::   CO: I know.

CEO Davis says:
:: Notices several sharp burn marks along the floor, and one or two along the wall.  He scans this area as well ::

FCO Lorehani says:
@XO:   fools bet Ma'am...  Why dump it here?

Host CO Kelson says:
CSO: And I miss being on the away team as well...   :: Smiles ::   On the front line, so to speak.

Host XO Horn says:
@FCO: That is most likely what was ejected from the Bajoran ship that was being chased by the Bird of Prey

CSO Lane says:
:: Smiles and whispers ::   CO: Well I'm glad you're right where I can keep an eye on you...all of you.

CEO Davis says:
:: Via the tricorder he is able to see that the nearest EPS tap exploded due to complications from the earlier accident ::

FCO Lorehani says:
@::Nods::   XO:  Requires a closer look...but we should find the people first.
:: Looks over to see what she will decide. ::

Host XO Horn says:
@FCO: Well, looks like on mystery was solved. How the virus got to the planet. Now to figure out what happened to the people

Host CO Kelson says:
CO: Guess that comes with the job, eh?

CSO Lane says:
:: Monitors the away team's signatures again ::   CO: Away team still on sensors and heading for a small body of water.

FCO Lorehani says:
@XO:  To the caves then.

Host XO Horn says:
@FCO: Lead on

Host CO Kelson says:
CSO: I hope they find the colonists soon.

FCO Lorehani says:
@:: Begins going towards the caves once more, following the tricorder ::

CSO Lane says:
CO: Agreed sir.

Host XO Horn says:
@:: Continues to keep an eye out for anything unusual ::

CEO Davis says:
:: As the starts to fill with engineers, he approaches them and hands them the tricorder and gives them a quick briefing on what happened ::

CSO Lane says:
:: Begins a series of scans of the surface ::

CEO Davis says:
*CO*: Captain, I believe we've figured out what happened to some extent.

Host CO Kelson says:
*CEO*: Go ahead...

CEO Davis says:
*CO*: A complication from the earlier shuttle accident affected one of the bay's consoles, which in turn caused a weakness in the EPS tap for the bay.

Host XO Horn says:
@:: Continues to follow the FCO as she heads closer to the caves ::

Host CO Kelson says:
*CEO*: Any major damage?

CSO Lane says:
:: Listens to the conversation… ::   Self: Oh good, about time!
