TO:  Captain Edward Andersen, Commanding Officer USS. Scimitar NCC‑80826

CC: Lieutenant Commander Yanis Jappic, Executive Officer USS
Scimitar NCC‑80826

FROM: Captain K'vin Bandra, Sector Commander
DATE: Stardate 10103.19
SUBJECT: Mission Orders

Due to increased  activity in the region The U.S.S. Scimitar is ordered
to patrol the demilitarized zone between Cardassian and Federation
space.  Intel has not yet been able to determine the cause of this
increased activity.

The Scimitar is to patrol and scan regions from the Dorvan System to the
Marva System.

You are authorized to enter the demilitarized zone but only if deemed
absolutely essential. However, be reminded, the Dozaria system lies
within the badlands and sensor operations will be impaired.

<<<<<Mission Briefing>>>>>

TO: Authorized Personnel, USS Scimitar NCC‑80826 
FROM: Captain Edward T. Andersen, Commanding Officer 
DATE: SD 10103.19 
SUBJ: Mission Briefing, SD 10103.19 

Crew of the Scimitar: 

We have been ordered to the Cardassian border to patrol the demilitarized 
zone between our two territories. While I cannot be fully specific on the 
reasons why, Starfleet Intelligence has detected increased activity from the 
Cardassian side of the border. It's unknown whether this has anything to do 
with the Dominion War or its aftermath, but at this point I won't discount 
the possibility of an attack by rogue Jem'Hadar forces that may still be 
within the Alpha Quadrant. 

Needless to say, I will require your best efforts during this mission to make 
sure the peace is kept. We spent two long years at war with the Cardassians 
and Dominion. No one wants to go through all of that again. 

XO: Since you probably know this region better than any of us, I'll need you 
to put together a workable patrol schedule between the Dorvan and Marva 
systems. We'll need information on any hiding places an enemy ship might use 
‑ asteroid fields, nebulae, etc. ‑ as well as such places within the Badlands. 

CTO/TO: Double‑check all weapons and defensive systems and have them on full 
standby the moment we reach the DMZ. Prepare plans of attack on all 
Cardassian and Dominion vessels in our records. 

ACEO: Have backups ready on all propulsion and defensive systems. Also, 
institute shield reinforcement so we can enter the Badlands without getting 
ripped apart by the plasma storms. 

OPS: Prepare a scrambled subspace channel back to Starbase 51 in case we have 
to report suspicious activity from the Cardassian side ‑ or request 
permission to cross into the DMZ. 

FCO: Plot a course parallel to the DMZ, going by the XO's patrol route, and 
follow it to the letter. We only have permission to cross into the DMZ when 
necessary ‑ I don't want it to become necessary. You'll also be counted upon 
to keep this ship running straight should we have to enter the Dozaria 
system, which lies within the Badlands. 

CSO: Extend full sensor sweeps to key on any vessels in the DMZ on the 
Cardassian side of the border. Also, if we do enter the Badlands, watch 
closely for tetryon activity ‑ the USS Voyager, USS Equinox and at least one 
Cardassian vessel were captured from this area seven years ago and taken to 
the Delta Quadrant. While Voyager's recent communications with Starfleet 
indicate that the being responsible has since perished, we cannot be sure 
that this activity has ended. Stay alert. 

CNS: No doubt returning to this area will bring about a lot of ill memories 
for the crew. Many were participants in the Dominion War before coming here 
(the Scimitar was lightyears away when the final battles occurred). Make 
yourself available for counseling in regards to the Dominion War. 

CMO: Prepare sickbay for possible casualties. Make sure either you or one of 
the other doctors is on call 24 hours per day.

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
CO:  Sir, may I recommend we proceed to the Morva System.. Due to the Demaliteralized zone, I doubt sensor readings could be useful from here.  There is a secret information satellite located in the badlands which I could reroute sensors.

FCO_LtJG_Adam_More says:
Co: approximately ten minutes, sir.

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
XO: Reverse patrol routes? Hmmm...are you sure this satellite wouldn't be adversely affected by the plasma storms?

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
OPS:  Status of the telemetry?

CNS_Lt_Fast_Jappic says:
T'Ponga: Really?

FCO_LtJG_Adam_More says:
CO: It isn't just about shields sir. It's about the way we maneuver, because of the scimitars size we'd be safer in a saber or even a Danube...

CMO_Ltjg_Shemara says:
Nova:  Yes.  I have succeeded in finding an answer to your problems.

OPS-Ens_Ryan_Bergin says:
::Checks Comm Board and Sensor Grid Interlinks:: XO: We're receiving Probe telemetry Five-by-Five, Comm System is relaying to Sensor Grid, should be appearing on your board about now.

CNS_Lt_Fast_Jappic says:
::smiles:: T'Ponga: Really? I mean for real?

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
OPS:  Acknowledged.  Relay the telemetry to the science console.

CMO_Ltjg_Shemara says:
Nova:  Yes for real.  I have developed an inhibitor for both you and Yanis.

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
FCO: I know, Intrepid-class ships are about as big as you can get for easy maneuvering. But the Cardassians were able to transit Galor-class ships through there all of the time. If they can do it, we can do it.

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
XO: How close are we to that satellite, Commander?

OPS-Ens_Ryan_Bergin says:
XO: Aye, Sir, Probe telemetry is routed to the Sensor Grid, should be showing on science sensor board now.

CMO_Ltjg_Shemara says:
Nova:  Human and Klingon anatomy do not entirely get along with each other.  It is very difficult for them to have children.  When you add the Cardassian physiology it presents an entirely different problem.

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
CO:  We are within 138 000 km from it sir.

CNS_Lt_Fast_Jappic says:
::smiles, not really believing it:: T'Ponga: So, then we can take the inhibitor?

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
XO: How close do we have to get to download the telemetry we need?

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
CO:  Within 113 056 kilometers

CMO_Ltjg_Shemara says:
Nova:  I can give you yours now and you will need to return in a week for the second treatment but after that you can go ahead and have as many children as you wish.  ::laughs:: just let me know first!!

CNS_Lt_Fast_Jappic says:
::Smiles broadly:: T'Ponga: What about Yanis, dose he need one too? or just me?

FCO_LtJG_Adam_More says:
CO: Captain, should I set a course that would fit those parameters?

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
CO:  We should reach it in three minutes.

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
FCO: Do it.

CMO_Ltjg_Shemara says:
Nova:  You will have to go to the bridge and give Yanis his first injection as well and he must also receive the second treatment in a week.

FCO_LtJG_Adam_More says:
CO: As Ordered.

CMO_Ltjg_Shemara says:
Nova:  It is for both of you.

CNS_Lt_Fast_Jappic says:
T'Ponga: So we have to wait 2 weeks?

TO_Ens_Kelly says:
::feels sweat begin trickling down his back, waiting for something to happen::

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
CO:  Two minutes sir.

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
CO:  Range, 98 321 km.

FCO_LtJG_Adam_More says:
CO: Should I increase speed?

CMO_Ltjg_Shemara says:
Nova:  No you don't have to wait 2 weeks.  You can go ahead and have fun now.  The second treatment is a final one for the rest of your lives.

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
::calls up Marva system information on armrest:: FCO: No, maintain current speed. Slow us down if we run into any plasma streamers.

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
CO:  One minute until intercept..  Approaching 45 723 km.

CNS_Lt_Fast_Jappic says:
T'Ponga: Wait you mean, that after this, we don't need any more, and we can still have kids?

FCO_LtJG_Adam_More says:
CO: Understood. All evasive procedures are activated.

CMO_Ltjg_Shemara says:
::sit back and waits for Nova to stop grinning::

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
XO: Do we have the access codes for that satellite, Commander?

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
CO:  I have..... vast knowledge of the matter yes sir.
CMO_Ltjg_Shemara says:
Nova: That is correct.  You can start now and after the second treatment, you can have as many children as you want for the rest of your lives.

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
::a little irked by the pause in XO's statement...probably something he doesn't want to know about::

CMO_Ltjg_Shemara says:
Nova:  This is a permanent solution to the problem.

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
::Starts to transfer the access codes to the satellite.::

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
XO: Then proceed once we're in range.

CNS_Lt_Fast_Jappic says:
::covers her mouth:: T'Ponga: I don't know what to say.

CNS_Lt_Fast_Jappic says:
T'Ponga: thank you.

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
CO:  Doing so now sir.

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
TO: Any sign of activity across the border, Mr. Kelly?

CMO_Ltjg_Shemara says:
Nova:  My dear there are some things that I can relate to very well.  Having children is one of them.

TO_Ens_Kelly says:
CO: None as of yet sir

CMO_Ltjg_Shemara says:
Nova:  Do you want to tell Yanis or do you want me to do it?

CNS_Lt_Fast_Jappic says:
T'Ponga: I think I’d like to

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
CO:  Data transmitting from satellite.. It's requesting my access codes to the data logs.

FCO_LtJG_Adam_More says:
::makes a minor course adjustment::

CMO_Ltjg_Shemara says:
Nova:  Go a head.  The sooner the better.  ::hands Yanis' hypo to her::

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
::Sends in the access codes::

TO_Ens_Kelly says:
::continues scanning across the DMZ for any sign of activity::

CMO_Ltjg_Shemara says:
::gives Nova her first injection::

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
::gets up from The Chair and walks over to science station::

CMO_Ltjg_Shemara says:
Nova:  There you go Nova.  That is it.

CMO_Ltjg_Shemara says:
Nova:  I will see you in a week for the final injection.

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
CO:  Access granted.

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
::Transmits the data logs.::

CNS_Lt_Fast_Jappic says:
::smiles again:: T'Ponga: Of course, and thank you again.

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
XO: Download the logs and do a quick scan through them.

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
CO:  The last data log dump was 97.63 days.

OPS-Ens_Ryan_Bergin says:
::Makes sure that the data streaming from the probes and sensor stations are stable::

CMO_Ltjg_Shemara says:
Nova:  I am here to serve.  ::smiles warmly at her::

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
CO:  We should have all we need from these files. ::Scans them::

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
CO:  Upload in progress sir.

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
XO: That means this thing hasn't exactly been inactive. Someone's been looking through the files.

CNS_Lt_Fast_Jappic says:
::gives her one back:: T'Ponga: I'm gonna go now, ok?

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
CO:  Perhaps...

CMO_Ltjg_Shemara says:
Nova:  Silly girl off you go now.....scoot!

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
XO: At least we know it wasn't the Obsidian Order.

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
CO:  Believe me sir, they were dealt with.

CNS_Lt_Fast_Jappic says:
::smiles again and rushes out to the TL and then onto the bridge::

XO: oh, I don't like them.

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
CNS:  I wonder why they are here in Cardassian space.

CMO_Ltjg_Shemara says:
::picks up her phaser and retunes it to a rotating frequency knowing what the Borg can do::

TO_Ens_Kelly says:
CO: I have weapons lock sir;  Borg sphere is 64 000 km and closing,

FCO_LtJG_Adam_More says:
CO: Course laid in for the nearest streamer.... lets see I they know this trick, hold on!

OPS-Ens_Ryan_Bergin says:
CO: Sphere is closing on us.

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
CNS: My guess? Advance scouts for another invasion attempt. Ops: Try to get a signal out through the probes to warn Starfleet. Priority One.

TO_Ens_Kelly says:
CO: Sphere's power signature has just doubled sir

OPS-Ens_Ryan_Bergin says:
CO: Aye, Sir.

CMO_Ltjg_Shemara says:
::senses the heightened tension on the bridge and crew::

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
TO: Once we're clear of the streamer, launch two quantum torpedoes aft towards it.

OPS-Ens_Ryan_Bergin says:
::Accesses Comms and tries relaying a signal via the probes:: CO: Sorry, Sir, I can't raise the probes, there's a comm blanket in effect.

TO_Ens_Kelly says:
CO: I have weapons lock sir, erratic but I have it...Aye sir

FCO_LtJG_Adam_More says:
CO, TO: Streamer cleared....

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
TO: Wait until the Borg get close enough...

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
::Scans the sphere.::

TO_Ens_Kelly says:
CO:  Aye sir. Waiting for that

CNS_Lt_Fast_Jappic says:
::walks to a counsel and accesses the communication screen::

TO_Ens_Kelly says:
CO: 39274 km sir

OPS-Ens_Ryan_Bergin says:
CO: I'm detecting at transporter signal. We have Borg on board.

TO_Ens_Kelly says:
CO: Should I fire sir?

CNS_Lt_Fast_Jappic says:
::sends out a priority 1 message to SFC telling them where they were and that there was a Borg cube there::

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
FCO: Once we launch, go to maximum impulse. Ops: Activate forcefields, maximum frequency shift.

TO_Ens_Kelly says:
CO: We've been caught in a tractor beam sir

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
TO: Fire torpedoes!

TO_Ens_Kelly says:
CO: Firing aye :: fires two quantums::

CMO_Ltjg_Shemara says:
::suddenly realizes that the Borg have come onboard::  ALL:  We have intruders.  Be sure and be careful at what you fire at.

OPS-Ens_Ryan_Bergin says:
CO: Aye Sir. ::Activates Isolation forcefields at rotating frequencies and maximum power::

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
TO: Fire phasers at the origin of that tractor beam.

TO_Ens_Kelly says:
CO: Torpedoes away and closing on the sphere

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
CO:  Sir, we have intruders onboard.

OPS-Ens_Ryan_Bergin says:
CO: Security fields in effect sir, I'm not sure how effective they'll be though.

TO_Ens_Kelly says:
CO: Aye sir ::targets the tractor beam and fires full phasers at it::

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
XO: I know, Commander. Ops: Lock on transporters around the Borg and beam them into space.

TO_Ens_Kelly says:
::grabs his console as the Scimitar jerks violently::

CMO_Ltjg_Shemara says:
::not sure of what will happen next T'Ponga puts Squiggy in his security area and activates the portable holoemitter that will hide him from site::

CNS_Lt_Fast_Jappic says:
CO:: Message sent sir.

FCO_LtJG_Adam_More says:
ALL HANDS! Emergency positions!

TO_Ens_Kelly says:
CO: We've been thrown away from the sphere sir

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
CNS: I doubt they'll get it...there's a scrambler in effect.

OPS-Ens_Ryan_Bergin says:
CO: Aye, Sir. ::locks Transporters onto the Borg and attempts to beam them into space::

Host KevinB says:
ACTION: two quantum torpedoes strike the Borg, the explosions setting of a plasma stream. a violent explosion rocks through the immediate area. tossing the scimitar even farther in the shockwave... lights flicker but stabilize

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
::thrown to deck as Scimitar goes flying::

CMO_Ltjg_Shemara says:
::grabs the side of her console as the ship is flung::

TO_Ens_Kelly says:
::tries to grab his console and is thrown clear across the deck as the Scimitar rocks crazily::

CNS_Lt_Fast_Jappic says:
::grabs the counsel::

CMO_Ltjg_Shemara says:
Self: What the devil is going on??????

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
::holds on.::  FCO:  Get us back on track Lieutenant!

CNS_Lt_Fast_Jappic says:
XO: Yanis?

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
::Holds onto Nova.::

TO_Ens_Kelly says:
::crawls back to his console and tries to find out where the Borg sphere is::

FCO_LtJG_Adam_More says:
XO: I'm trying sir!

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
::picks himself off the deck...wipes mouth, finds some blood there, cut lip...::

OPS-Ens_Ryan_Bergin says:
::Falls into console, busting lip but gets back up wiping blood away and continues duty with lower lip in mouth::

FCO_LtJG_Adam_More says:
::pulls himself back up to his console::

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
Ops: Reroute emergency power!

FCO_LtJG_Adam_More says:
CO: Sir I suggest we exit the badlands as soon as possible.

OPS-Ens_Ryan_Bergin says:
::Confused:: CO: Reroute where?

CNS_Lt_Fast_Jappic says:
::whispers in his ear::XO: I guess this is a bad time to tell you we can have kids now, huh?

CMO_Ltjg_Shemara says:
ALL: I want all teams to report to their assigned areas for treatment of the crew.  ::picking herself up off the floor::

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
::Looks at Nova and smiles a little.::  CNS:  Assuming we get out of here alive.

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
::climbs back into his chair:: FCO: No argument from me... Ops: Get it to the main systems, Ensign!

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
TO: Mr. Kelly, where's that Borg vessel?

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
CO:  Sir, we must find out why the Borg were here.

TO_Ens_Kelly says:
::tries to get his eyes to focus on the Tactical board, but is having a hard time:: CO: I'm trying to find her now sir

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
XO: More importantly, we have to warn everyone else they're here.

CMO_Ltjg_Shemara says:
*Bridge*:  All medical teams have been dispersed through out the ship for injuries.  Are there any severe injuries on the bridge??

FCO_LtJG_Adam_More says:
ALL: I'm about to take us to full impulse, brace for any plasma bursts.

FCO_LtJG_Adam_More says:
CO: course set, engaging full impulse.

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
CO:  Once we are back.. Request to take an away team to the Dozaria Planet.

FCO_LtJG_Adam_More says:
CO: impulse down to 84%, engaging at 84%

OPS-Ens_Ryan_Bergin says:
::Routes as much power as he can afford to impulse and shields and then uses the rest to stabilize LS::

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
::wipes blood from lip:: *ME* Bridge to engineering, try to get those shields back to maximum.

TO_Ens_Kelly says:
CO: Sphere has been destroyed sir, it's completely gone

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
::smiles, only briefly:: TO: What about those Borg on board? Do we have a location on them?

OPS-Ens_Ryan_Bergin says:
FCO: I'm routing more power to the impulse manifold, the power is there but be careful not to blow the manifold, last thing we need is an impulse blow out in the badlands.

FCO_LtJG_Adam_More says:
Ops: I'll do my best, ensign.

TO_Ens_Kelly says:
CO: Working on that now sir  ::listens for a moment:: All Borg invaders have been accounted for sir

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
TO: Accounted for? Are they dead, alive, what?

TO_Ens_Kelly says:
CO: I'm not sure yet sir, I will find out

TO_Ens_Kelly says:
CO: Sir, they have been destroyed, every last one of them on board

TO_Ens_Kelly says:
CO: We're clean of them sir

OPS-Ens_Ryan_Bergin says:
CO: Our distress signal didn't escape the badlands and Our Transceiver array is fried, it'll be a while until we have external Comms again.

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
::Approaches the CO::  CO:  I recommend we take an away team to Dozaria.. maybe there is a clue there as to why the Borg were around.

CMO_Ltjg_Shemara says:
::senses that the Borg intrusion has been erased and relaxes a bit::

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
XO: Wait a second... FCO: How far are we from the Dozaria system?

FCO_LtJG_Adam_More says:
CO: Sir, once we exit the badlands, I could take the Kuroc out and send the message like that

FCO_LtJG_Adam_More says:
CO: Three minutes, at best speed that we an currently make, sir
Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
Ops: Send out an emergency message buoy towards Federation space with our last Priority One message on all frequencies. Also with log entries to this point. FCO: Take us to Dozaria, Mr. More, best speed.

Host CO_CAPT_Andersen says:
XO: Let's hope there's still somebody there for us.

FCO_LtJG_Adam_More says:
CO: ::sighs:: As ordered, sir.

Host XO_LtCmdr_Jappic says:
CO:  Sir?

OPS-Ens_Ryan_Bergin says:
CO: A shuttle should be able to reach the federation badlands border easier and quicker, it wouldn't be as affected by the plasma storms, a Message buoy only need go near a plasma storm and it's out of it.

CMO_Ltjg_Shemara says:
Self: What are the Borg doing in this sector any way??
