Summary - The crew of the U.S.S. Scimitar have arrived in orbit of the planet Mars...after over a month of non-stop travel from the Mizani Sector to Sol Sector.

What their exact orders are, they are unsure. All they know is that Captain Black has been fully briefed...and has spent a great deal of his time in his ready room, either in meetings with Commander Janan or speaking to members of Starfleet Command via subspace. Now, en route to Utopia Planitia station, the crew hopes to get answers...

TO_LtJG_K`Nargh says:
::just nods in the XO's general direction but not bothering to look up and take a notice of what’s happening outside::
CSO_LtJG_Delar says:
XO: For some reason, that doesn't fill my heart with hope...::continues to alternate between the manager and his weapons specs::
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
::looks out of his view port and sees the dock and the other ships before ordering a coffee from the replicator::
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
FCO: Get permission to dock, we'll try to get this over with as soon as possible.
OPS_Brenna_Delar says:
::rubs her temple absently while monitoring the comm:: XO: Ma'am...there's an unusual amount of noise on the comm...not that I could tell you what they're all saying, most of it's very well encrypted ::bites her bottom lip::
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
::gives him a knowing look, nods:: CSO: At least with this many ships we are the dominant power in the area.
CSO_LtJG_Delar says:
::chuckles softly and looks up from his console for a moment:: XO: Would you expect any less in the Terran home system?
FCO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
XO: Aye. ::Looks at Ops:: OPS: could you contact Utopia Planitia and ask where they want us?
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
::nods:: OPS: Thank you. ::looks at the view screen:: Self: As expected.

CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
::taps his comm badge:: *TO*: MacAllister to K’Nargh, anything to report?
Host CJ-Tala says:
<UP_OPS> COM: Scimitar: This is Utopia Planitia command to the U.S.S. Scimitar. You are cleared to dock in Bay 13, Scimitar. S.E.C. officers are standing by for immediate refit.
CMO_Ens_Kerak says:
::looks up:: Medic: Come in, put them down here ::he indicates a spot on the desk with a wave of his glass::
OPS_Brenna_Delar says:
::looks down as coordinates come up on her console and quickly relays them to Exeter’s console:: FCO: The docking coordinates have been received sir
TO_LtJG_K`Nargh says:
*CTO* Just a couple ships getting temporary weapons upgrades. They won't last long though, as the ships hulls were not designed to carry such weapons
Host CJ-Tala says:
<Medic> ::She nods quickly and places the PADDs down:: This is all the information transmitted to use from Krios Prime concerning the viral outbreak last year...and the information you requested on Doctor Delar.
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
*TO*: Understood, can you tell who's getting what?
OPS_Brenna_Delar says:
::looks over her shoulder for a second watching her husband and furrowing her brow::
FCO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
OPS: Aye :: inserts the coordinates in to his console::
CMO_Ens_Kerak says:
Medic: Splendid. ::he dismisses the medic with a wave of his glass::
Tech_Lt_Carlton says:
@::Standing in the airlock, going over the schematics again::
TO_LtJG_K`Nargh says:
*CTO*: The USS Quirinus is getting some sort of weapons upgrades, cant tell, there is also an AKIRA class ship and a SABRE class ship getting new QT launchers, that is all I can get right now
EO_Ens_Kamarov says:
::  works tirelessly at the main systems display, making small notes to his PADD so that he knows what to repair after the refit is done. ::
CSO_LtJG_Delar says:
::feels Brenna's eyes on him and looks over to her, smiling softly::
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
*TO*: Acknowledged, keep me updated. MacAllister out.
Host CJ-Tala says:
ACTION - The Legacy and Orpheus break off and move towards other sections of the station and the U.S.S. Scimitar glides gently into Bay 13, right along-side the U.S.S. Quirinus...
TO_LtJG_K`Nargh says:
::rolls his eyes and goes back to observing his console::
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
OPS: Enquire as to what refits we are due to have please. It will help to know what they intend to be doing. Tell them the TO and EO will be available to assist if required. ::nods to the respective crew members::
FCO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
XO: Been a while since I've been here. You know about any good bars here?
OPS_Brenna_Delar says:
::turns to the XO and nods slowly watching her glowing purple eyes reflected in the console as she makes the information request::
EO_Ens_Kamarov says:
:: seems lost in his own little world of Daystroms and anti proton flux capacitors...::
Host CJ-Tala says:
ACTION - The Scimitar docks safely with the Utopia Planitia dock, and Engineering teams begin to rush in.
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:

CSO_LtJG_Delar says:
::mumbles something about his sensor upgrades and stupid refit teams before continuing with his duties::
EO_Ens_Kamarov says:
:: stands up and looks over to the XO :: XO: Pardon me...but I must make sure they install more parts then they break.  Star Dock personnel can be such Cossacks.
Tech_Lt_Carlton says:
::Walks through the airlock and steps aboard the Scimitar::
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
::nods to the EO:: EO: I expect you to be watching everything, surprise installations are something I would like to avoid,.
FCO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
::stands up and locks out his console:: ALL: Anybody looking for me I'll be in the closest bar or holodeck in this place.
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
::gives OPS a curious look::
OPS_Brenna_Delar says:
::laughs softly:: CSO: I'm sure they'll get around to it if you've filed the paperwork properly
Host CJ-Tala says:

XO: Are we allowed to leave and explore?
CSO_LtJG_Delar says:
EO: make sure they get around to those weapons upgrades I’ve been working on. ::looks down at his wife and smiles:: OPS: I'm not worried about new ones, but them messing up the old ones
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
OPS: Possibly, I can't help but notice your eyes.
EO_Ens_Kamarov says:
XO: I most heartily agree...I spend the better part of three months booby tra...I mean repairing this ship...I will not let them ruin my hard work. :: he grins and gives the XO and playful wink before leaving to catch the engineering crews. ::
FCO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
::stops:: XO: I believe I still have some homework for the TO, ma'am
Tech_Lt_Carlton says:
::Walks to the nearest TL and enters:: TL: Bridge.
Host CJ-Tala says:
ACTION - A pair of Engineers move over to the TIC Mission Ops console and begin ripping it apart immediately.
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
FCO: If you must visit the bar try and find out what the rumors are they may be useful to us, Also nothing intoxicating for you whilst you are on duty.
OPS_Brenna_Delar says:
::smiles brightly:: XO: They glow in the dark too, I'm just waiting to see if they start shooting lasers...it's probably nothing...just some weird after effect ma'am, nothing to worry about...I hope
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
FCO: What homework, K'Nargh would be best suited to help oversee the works.
EO_Ens_Kamarov says:
:: takes the TL to engineering...moving quickly to where the engineering teams are working...looking for a supervisor type. ::
TO_LtJG_K`Nargh says:
::looks at the FCO:: XO: Ma`am are you sure you want to send him out? He’s gonna become a blabbering drunk
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
::chuckles:: OPS: How long have they been like this?
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
::checks the status of the Scimitar's fighters with CAG::
OPS_Brenna_Delar says:
::furrows her brow and turns to her husband:: CSO: Rowan...how long have my eyes been this way?...I don't remember
FCO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
XO: Well, while we are in the area I contacted a few friends of mine on the Academy. They are obliged to give a crash course prime directive to the Lieutenant, sir
Tech_Lt_Carlton says:
::Looks out of the TL doors as they open, trying to spot the most senior officer, then sees Janan on the XO’s chair and walks towards her::
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
TO: If he tries that it will be his loss when he returns. I won't have a drunken officer on the bridge.
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
::nods:: FCO: Thank you, any rumors will be useful as I say.
CSO_LtJG_Delar says:
::he frowns over at her:: OPS: Since you woke up, Brenna...
Host CJ-Tala says:
ACTION – A  large lumbering Lieutenant Commander in red approaches Kamarov and looks down at him. "Are you Lieutenant Leasha?"

OPS_Brenna_Delar says:
::nods slowly:: CSO: Hmmm..sounds about right ::turns and watches the new lieutenant shuddering slightly::
EO_Ens_Kamarov says:
:: looks up.....and up....and up...finally reaching this behemoth's eyes...putting his hands on his hips and shaking his head. :: LtCmdr:  The last time I checked, not yet.  I am Ensign Kamarov...Assistant Chief Engineer...how may I help you sir.
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
TO: Would you report to Engineering, I would like a security presence down there.
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:

::sighs and gets up:: XO: Yes Ma`am ::heads for the TL::
CSO_LtJG_Delar says:
::mutters to himself as he watches the S.E.C crew milling around the bridge:: Self: I hate refits....
Host CJ-Tala says:
<EO_LtCmdr> ::He looks down at the small Russian Ensign:: EO: I have been ordered to supervise the new Engine Instillation. You will assist me in disengaging the primary reactor.
CMO_Ens_Kerak says:
::stands up with a huff and storms out of his office:: All: Vultures! Cannot even wait for Sickbay to be vacated! I'll get you all sacked for this!
Tech_Lt_Carlton says:
::Waits for Janan to acknowledge him::
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
::nods towards the Tech:: Tech: What can I do for you Lt?
Host CJ-Tala says:
ACTION - The Engineers explain to Kerak that they have standing orders, and that they are to complete a minor refit in Sickbay as quickly as possible.
TO_LtJG_K`Nargh says:
TL: Engineering
EO_Ens_Kamarov says:
:: doesn't like the tone of this officer and glares. :: Lt. Comm: With all due respect, if anyone will be supervising installation it will be me.  Where are the specifications for this install?
CMO_Ens_Kerak says:
All: Well I was not informed of this! Someone will get sacked for this!
CMO_Ens_Kerak says:
All: Will my office be spared of this destruction? Or am I safe to return there?
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
OPS: Interesting, Has the doctor any theories as to why this would happen to you?
Host CJ-Tala says:
<EO_LtCmdr> EO: Unfortunately, Ensign, the specifications are not within your security clearance. I am under orders from Starfleet Command, and I can not allow you to interfere with my duties.
Tech_Lt_Carlton says:
::Loosens his stand, raising his padd slightly:: XO: I'd like to take you through the details of the refit... In private, please..
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
::wanders out of his office and heads for a TL::
TO_LtJG_K`Nargh says:
::Steps off the TL and walks into engineering, he sees a huge figure standing over the EO:: EO/LtCmdr: Is there a problem over here?
FCO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
:;shakes his head and heads for ME, maybe Leasha has some time left::
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
::nods and reaches to take the Padd:: Tech: In private? It is this crew who are to use your refits surely they should be aware of them too?
EO_Ens_Kamarov says:
:: his accent gets thicker as he glares at him with steely eyes. :: LtCmdr:  Your duties can frost over in January at Moscow if you think I am letting you even GAZE at my Warp Engines you Cossack!
OPS_Brenna_Delar says:
XO: None that he's shared yet ma'am, but as soon as he has any I'll make sure you know...perhaps you shouldn't keep these guys waiting, they might have the ship half ripped apart before you know why
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
TL: Deck one, Bridge.
Host CJ-Tala says:
ACTION - A comm comes in to the OPS board from the TIC.
TO_LtJG_K`Nargh says:
::surprised at the EO's comments and steps in between the two:: EO/LtCmdr: Enough, what is the problem here?
OPS_Brenna_Delar says:
::brings up the comm::
Tech_Lt_Carlton says:
::Shakes head, keeping a grip to his padd:: XO: I'm sorry, commander, I'll have to keep this. Anything I'm going to tell you, in private, will remain between you, me, and the captain and second officer, after you've informed them... No-one else is to know about the details..
Host CJ-Tala says:
<EO_LtCmdr> ::He hands a PADD over to Lieutenant K'Nargh and looks over at the Klingon:: TO: I have standing orders to conduct an Engine Refit...your Ensign Kamarov is not cooperating with Starfleet directives.
FCO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
::enters Main Engineering::
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
::steps off the TL on to the bridge::
EO_Ens_Kamarov says:
:: doesn't hear the TO as he begins to unleash an impressive string of Russian curses that echo off the bulkheads of Engineering and other parts of the ship....the young Russian only calming once the TO steps between...:: TO: This ..this.....STUKACH wants to install a new engine but will not allow me to at least inspect the work specifications!
Host CJ-Tala says:
ACTION - The Engineers shake their heads, all of them are senior officers, Lieutenant and up. "Need to know basis," they tell Kerak.
TO_LtJG_K`Nargh says:
::glances at the padd and nods:: LtCmdr: You may proceed, but just so there is no more problems will it be alright for the EO to observe what you are doing?
FCO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
::sighs and tries to find Leasha, trying to avoid  being involved in the EO row::
Host CJ-Tala says:
<EO_LtCmdr> TO: That is permissible.
TO_LtJG_K`Nargh says:
EO: He has an order ensign, maybe if you would calm down a little bit he would let you inspect the specifications
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
::heads for Tac 1 and monitors internal sensors from there::
Host CJ-Tala says:
ACTION - A few Engineers rush past Exeter, carrying large crates and complex equipment.
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
::nods with a sigh:: Tech: As you wish, lets make this quick ::heads to the ready room::
TO_LtJG_K`Nargh says:
::nods:: LtCmdr: Thank you ::looks at the EO:: EO: You can observe what they are doing, just don’t cause any more problems, we need this to be done as quickly as possible, I will be here for security reasons
Tech_Lt_Carlton says:
::Follows Janan to the ready room, still holding his padd:: XO: Thank you, commander.
CMO_Ens_Kerak says:
All: Bah! I need to know as this is my sickbay!
EO_Ens_Kamarov says:
:: looks into the TO's eyes and calms down...nodding.  Turning back to the Lt. Comm. :: Lt. Comm: Where would you like me, sir?
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
::gives one last look over the bridge:: OPS: You have the bridge.
FCO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
TO: have you seen the CEO around here?
Host CJ-Tala says:
<EO_Lt> CMO: I am sorry sir...need to know only. Your Commanding Officer has been filled in on the details of the refit.
OPS_Brenna_Delar says:
::looks up wide eyed:: XO: Uh..alright ma'am
CSO_LtJG_Delar says:
::smiles at Brenna:: OPS: Just don't run us into any space stations
TO_LtJG_K`Nargh says:
::turns back to the FCO:: FCO: Negative, haven’t seen her around
Host CJ-Tala says:
<EO_LtCmdr> ::He nods to K'Nargh and Kamarov:: EO: I'd like to take a look at your MSD...we'll need to transfer a great deal of power from the EPS taps, and we'll need to finalize the location of the new drive...
CMO_Ens_Kerak says:
*XO*: Ma'am I have some engineers down here tearing my sickbay apart and they refuse to tell me what is going on! I demand an explanation!
FCO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
TO: nuts  ::looks around:: EO_LtCmdr: Commander can I have a peak at those refits
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
::overhears the CSO:: CSO: I think that would be a bit of an achievement, saying as how we're not moving and all.
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
::walks around the desk and takes a seat:: Tech: have a seat, now what are you planning to do with this ship? ::hears the Comm:: Lets start with Sickbay.
TO_LtJG_K`Nargh says:
::stands back and observes the LtCmdr and the EO just in case any more problems arise::
OPS_Brenna_Delar says:
::stands up and looks around for a minute:: CSO: Oh quiet you ad let me enjoy this, I didn't even get to be there for my own promotion ::smiles brightly and slowly walks down into the command circle taking a seat in the centre chair and bringing up the OPS functions on the small arm console::
Host CJ-Tala says:
<EO_LtCmdr> ::He shakes his head slowly:: FCO: Unfortunately, sir, this information is on a need to know basis only. Only the Scimitar's Command Staff are permitted access to the information.
EO_Ens_Kamarov says:
:: looks up at the Lt. commander and stands at attention turning and escorting him to the MSD.  :: Lt. Comm: As you can see, we have had to repair and re adjust a few of the EPS tap power flow paths to compensate for damage and backlash degradation.
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
*CMO*: Yes standard upgrades. They will get out of your way soon.
Host CJ-Tala says:
ACTION - The Engineers in Sickbay move a few patients to another ward as they begin ripping up bio beds and sensor equipment.
OPS_Brenna_Delar says:
::settles into the chair:: All: That's it...now I have to make captain...just for one of these chairs
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
::looks at the Tech for answers::
TO_LtJG_K`Nargh says:
::follows the EO and LtCmdr, not understanding anything what they are talking about::
CMO_Ens_Kerak says:
*XO*: This is an outrage! I have engineers moving patients around and causing havoc! How come I was not informed of this!
FCO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
EO_LtCmdr: Last I heard I was a member of the Scimitars command staff, commander
Host CJ-Tala says:
ACTION - The displays on the Captain's chair show up in Russia.
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
::smiles at OPS' comment and returns his attention to internal sensors::
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
*CMO*: I agree it is an inconvenience but a necessary one. You will have your sickbay in no time.
Tech_Lt_Carlton says:
::Walks over to the seat opposite of Janan and takes a seat, putting the padd in front of him.:: XO: Right, sickbay then... First of all, the medical scanners are being updated with the latest versions. Also, they'll be getting a new, larger surgical bay, in which aliens of bigger size can be treated...
CMO_Ens_Kerak says:
::Grumbles and glares at the technicians, shouting at them to be careful with some delicate objects::
Host CJ-Tala says:
<EO_LtCmdr> FCO: My apologies...::He hands him a PADD:: A reminder, need to know only, Command Staff and above. ::He glances back to Kamarov and follows him:: EO: It looks like you've redirected EPS power from your port nacelle...what happened there?
CSO_LtJG_Delar says:
::sighs softly and taps a few commands out on his console::
OPS_Brenna_Delar says:
::frowns and hits her comm badge::*EO*:Mister Kamarov...would you care to explain to me, as the only Russian onboard why exactly my computer is speaking in a non common dialect?
FCO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
::looks at the padd:: Self: now let's see what's going on.
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
::nods:: Tech: Lt, Bigger Aliens, are we expecting guests? ::looks at him as if he is not to know:: Okay and the rest of the ship?
EO_Ens_Kamarov says:
:: frowns and looks down....displaying the Wave Frequency Generator specs and the documentation concerning the subspace rift that formed. :: Lt. Comm : The documentation is right here for your perusal, sir.
EO_Ens_Kamarov says:
*OPS*: But Lieutenant, Russian is the basis of all civilized languages...
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
CSO: Were you informed of any refit to the TIC? Internal sensors are showing a refit crew up there.
CSO_LtJG_Delar says:
::blinks and looks over to the CTO:: CTO: TIC? ::quickly walks over to the TL and steps inside:: TL: Tactical Information Centre. ::gets whooshed down::
Tech_Lt_Carlton says:
::Sighs:: XO: Other refits include improved weapon systems, a new, dedicated subspace scanner, which will be placed on the bow. For that purpose, one of the sensor pallets will be removed, so the scanner will fit. And by far the biggest refit is to the engines. This ship will be fit with a new subspace-folding device.
Host CJ-Tala says:
<EO_LtCmdr> ::He looks over the information quickly and nods once:: EO: We'll need a modified containment field to protect the port nacelle for Theta Radiation...
OPS_Brenna_Delar says:
*EO*:No it isn't, that's Greek, which is the forerunner of Russian, and neither are acceptable, now you will hit whatever button it is that makes the console up here display in English or I will file a formal complaint...and I will mess with your console...unless you want to find need to learn Klingon you will fix this...please
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
::watches the CSO disappear:: OPS: Something I said?
FCO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
::Looks at the padd and raises a eyebrow:: EO_LtCmdr: Who's your boss!
OPS_Brenna_Delar says:
::smiles over at MacAllister:: CTO: Just someone playing with his baby...don't worry it's not you...but you might want to make sure he doesn't put someone in traction
EO_Ens_Kamarov says:
: smirks and nods ..even though he knows she can't see him. *OPS* Ka'PLah!, Lieutenant. :: taking his PADD out and disengaging the Russian Language Program. ::
CSO_LtJG_Delar says:
::steps into the TIC and looks around quickly, clenching his fists::
Host CJ-Tala says:
ACTION - The Russian on Delar's display fades to standard Federation.
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
OPS: Got a bit of a temper has he? ::Smiles::
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
Tech: How far past the test stage is this drive of yours?
EO_Ens_Kamarov says:
:: hears the FCO shout and walks over :: FCO: What’s wrong, Sir?
OPS_Brenna_Delar says:
::nods::*EO*:Thank you ensign, there’s a bottle of scotch in it for you for doing this, Delar out
Host CJ-Tala says:
<EO_LtCmdr> FCO: I received my orders from Captain MacNeil, head of the experimental refit department, Starfleet Corp. of Engineers...
CSO_LtJG_Delar says:
::steps down into the main circle, gawking at someone ripping apart the TIC Sensors:: Technician: What are you doing?
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
Self: never heard of the drive though that does not surprise me, though the engineers should be happy. Unless it fails first.
OPS_Brenna_Delar says:
CTO: Only lately...he just gets frustrated when his hands get tied when it comes to taking care of the ship and her crew...especially now
TO_LtJG_K`Nargh says:
::looks at the FCO:: FCO: could you leave them to there duties? we need this done as quickly as possible, enjoy your leave
FCO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
EO_LtCmdr: You'll halt these refits till I've spoken to him, is that clear, commander. ::looks at Kamarov:: EO: none of your business yet, Ensign.
Host CJ-Tala says:
<EO_LtCmdr> FCO: Impossible, Commander...I have orders to complete these refits as soon as possible, your Commanding Officer has been informed and has approved of any refits.
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
::taps his comm Badge:: *Security*: I want a security presence wherever there is a refit crew. I don't want any trouble on this ship.
Tech_Lt_Carlton says:
::Smiles faintly:: XO: It uhm.. It’s been in use on a few vessels, and with success too...
EO_Ens_Kamarov says:
:: sighs....getting attitude from his own Lt. Commanders now. :: FCO: Of course sir.  I am only the Assistant Chief Engineer...I have no right to know what is being installed on my ship.  Lenin forbid I should be able to run my ships engines. :: turns around and faces the MSD.
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
::raises an eyebrow::
Host CJ-Tala says:
ACTION - Security teams respond to MacAllister’s call and set up in Main Engineering, on the bridge, TIC, Shuttlebay and Sickbay.

::hands the Commander his padd back:: LtCmdr: how safe are these refits and have they been tested yet?
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
OPS: I don't know, engineering, sickbay, TIC, what else are they going to mess up?
OPS_Brenna_Delar says:
::sits back in the chair placing a protective hand on her belly as she gets kicked in the kidneys and winces:: Self: Just couldn't sleep through the shift could he ::watches her readouts::
Host CJ-Tala says:
<EO_LtCmdr> FCO: Starfleet R&D has spent years testing and researching this drive. It has been used on multiple ships in the past, all with positive results.
EO_Ens_Kamarov says:
:: scoffs and smirks :: Self: that only means that they were able to salvage the hulls.
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
Tech: With success in all cases leaving ship and crew unharmed? And the effects on space from the drive are negligible I assume?
CMO_Ens_Kerak says:
::Turns to the security team that just turned up:: Sec: Bah, do you know anything about this? ::he waves his hand over to the technicians ripping apart his sickbay::
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
::nods to him but asks for further reassurance::
Host CJ-Tala says:
ACTION - The security team in sickbay all shake their heads in response.
FCO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
EO_LtCmdr: I won't those Test result on my desk ASAP, Commander. ::looks at  the TO:: TO: Since when does a Junior  officer order around a 2nd Officer, lieutenant!
OPS_Brenna_Delar says:
::turns to the CTO:: CTO: I'm surprised you haven't gotten any calls from sickbay yet, I can't imagine Kerak is taking this laying down
Tech_Lt_Carlton says:
XO: Correct.. We haven't detected any bad effects, owing to these subspace-folding devices...
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
Tech: Well thank you, do you have anything further to add?
TO_LtJG_K`Nargh says:
FCO: I was assigned to handle things down here, just be on your way lieutenant, go get wasted in the bars
CMO_Ens_Kerak says:
::grumbles some profanities and glares some more at the technicians::
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
OPS: Good point. 
OPS_Brenna_Delar says:
::laughs softly:: CTO: Have you met our dear doctor yet?
CSO_LtJG_Delar says:
Technician: Well? I want to know what you're doing to my sensors! Do you realise how long it takes to calibrate subspace scanners correctly for tactical usage? No, I don't suppose you do. Fresh out of the academy, no doubt
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
*CMO*: MacAllister to Kerak, Everything ok down there Doc?
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
OPS: Can't say I have.
EO_Ens_Kamarov says:
FCO/TO : If you both are quite done...could you please take your lover's argument outside of Engineering.  I have enough trouble with these ...these.... abominations they are trying to install on my engines with out you two sword fighting!
Tech_Lt_Carlton says:
XO: Yes, I do.. Everything I have just told you is to be shared only with your captain and second officer. This is highly sensitive information, which could have very serious consequences if the wrong persons know about it. I trust you to keep everything confidential... And you may keep this padd, as long as it does not leave this room..
Host CJ-Tala says:
ACTION - The Technician ignores him and crawls under a control console. "Seventeen years subspace field work, Lieutenant..."
FCO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
TO: I’m still on duty, and it's Lieutenant Commander. I already had this discussion with you. It's either commander or  sir. Or I'll have you relieved  by somebody who can do his job  correctly and knows the Chain of command.
Tech_Lt_Carlton says:
::Slides the padd across the table::
CMO_Ens_Kerak says:
*CTO*: No! And who are you? I don’t remember any McAllister! Bah, probably more changes that no-one bothers telling me about... honestly Starfleet theses days!
CSO_LtJG_Delar says:
Technician:: Good! Then you can get out under that table and tell me what you're doing while you RE-Calibrate my sensors
OPS_Brenna_Delar says:
::giggles:: CTO: Yep he's a charmer
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
Tech: And how do you propose I hide what is going to be obvious in sickbay and engineering? ::takes the Padd and for the first time looks at it::
TO_LtJG_K`Nargh says:
EO: I have orders from the XO to be here, the FCO should not even be anywhere near here ::grins at the FCO:: FCO: Just be on your way
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
*CMO*: I don't believe we've had a chance to meet yet doctor, I'm the new CTO, Lieutenant MacAllister.
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
OPS: I see what you mean.
FCO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
TO: That's ' just be on your way, sir' and that's strike two another one and you'll be back at graveyard shift busted down to ensign. So do i have another offer?
CMO_Ens_Kerak says:
*CTO*: No we haven’t, when this is all over and done with you should report to me for a medical examination.
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
::looks at him as if she does not want an answer:: Tech: Well okay they know nothing until they find out for themselves or we need to use these refits.
EO_Ens_Kamarov says:
:: sighs...:: FCO/TO: I do not believe that having an argument with another officer is part of your responsibilities...either of you.  Kiss and make up or whatever.......sir.
Tech_Lt_Carlton says:
XO: You will simply tell the crew that you'll have improved systems installed. They have no need whatsoever to know about the subspace folding device and the subspace scanner, apart from those officers that will be working directly with these systems. Computer software is being updated to include routines for the installed devices...
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
::gets up:: Tech: Thank you for your time, is that all now?
Host CJ-Tala says:
<Tech> ::He moves out from under the console and glances up at Delar:: CSO: I will explain everything in detail upon completion of my work, Lieutenant...::He tech wears Commander pips::
OPS_Brenna_Delar says:
::nods:: CTO: Not much of a bedside manner, but he's a hell of a doctor ::smiles and sighs::
TO_LtJG_K`Nargh says:
::stands there and just smiles:: FCO: Are you leaving yet or do we have to stand here all day?
CSO_LtJG_Delar says:
::ignores the extra pips quite well:: CSO: Your work can wait. Specs of the refit, in my hand within one minute, and then a detailed explanation while you re-calibrate. Once I am briefed you may continue.
Tech_Lt_Carlton says:
::Nods:: XO: Said officers involved will find manuals embedded in the subroutines. They will only need to know after you have left dock and are well on your way again...
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
*CMO*: Much as I hate medicals, I must agree with you. I'm overdue for one anyway. Just let me know if you have any problems. Oh, and there should be a security detail headed for sickbay to keep an eye on the refit crew.
FCO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
*CTO*:  This is Commander Exeter, welcome aboard chief, when Lieutenant K’Nargh is done with his duties in Engineering I want him in the brig for insubordination, lieutenant!
EO_Ens_Kamarov says:
*XO* : Commander, this is Ensign Kamarov...the FCO and the TO seem to be having...well...a lover's quarrel down here in Engineering.  I have enough to deal with without babysitting these two. Can you find them something constructive to do, ma'am.
Host CJ-Tala says:
<Tech> CSO: Inefficient. I am sorry, Lieutenant, but I have my orders...and this refit has been approved by your Commanding Officer and Starfleet Command. All details are need to know only...
Tech_Lt_Carlton says:
XO: And with that, I think you for your time.. ::Smiles as he gets up too::
FCO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
TO: Good day, ensign. ::grins and leaves Main Engineering::
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
::nods, looking at the Padd knowing these are orders from higher then the refit team::
CMO_Ens_Kerak says:
*CTO*: Security are already here, Kerak out. ::Gets back to shouting at some technician::
CSO_LtJG_Delar says:
Tech: I know what "Need to know" means, and I am one of the people that need to know.
TO_LtJG_K`Nargh says:
::just laughs:: FCO: You try to hard, you think I care? ::grins:: at least your finally leaving, I can get some peace and quiet
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
::shakes her head:: Tech: if you will excuse me I must be going ::holds the Padd against her chest:: May I at least keep this? ::moves the Padd slightly::
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
*FCO*: Acknowledged sir and thank you for the welcome. I'll have a security team ready to relieve him and escort him to the brig.
OPS_Brenna_Delar says:
::taps her comm badge:: CSO: Brenna to Rowan, if you're not too busy down there I could use your help up here...
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
*CMO*: Acknowledged Doc, MacAllister out.
Tech_Lt_Carlton says:
::Nods:: XO: You may, as long as you won't let it fall into other hands.. ::Smiles:: I, too need to get going. I believe they are waiting for me somewhere..
FCO-LtCmdr-Exeter says:
*CTO*: Thanks, Lieutenant. I'll do the paperwork for this one.
Host XO_LtCmdr_Janan says:
Tech: It won't. ::nods to him and exist back to the bridge:: *EO*: Okay what happened in engineering.
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
*FCO*: Understood Sir, MacAllister out.
CSO_LtJG_Delar says:
::mutters at the Tech and taps his comm badge:: *OPS*: Rowan here, I’ll be up soon. ::turning back to the Tech he mumbles:: Tech: You had better give me those specs when you've finished, Commander. You don't have to be out in the field with equipment you don't understand  ::turning he heads back for the bridge::
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
OPS: Busy busy huh?
Tech_Lt_Carlton says:
::Follows Janan to the bridge and walks straight to the TL:: TL: Main Engineering.
EO_Ens_Kamarov says:
*XO*: The FCO and the TO decided to have a round of dueling egos in my workspace.  I have enough on my hands with these...Cossacks from Starfleet R&D putting some half-baked project in my engines.
OPS_Brenna_Delar says:
CTO: Busy?...oh no...Someone better get down there or he'll start torturing those poor techs for information
CTO_Lt_MacAllister says:
*Security*: I want a Security detail on standby in Main Engineering, As soon as Lieutenant K’Nargh has finished there he is to be apprehended and escorted to the Brig where he will be detained until further notice.
Host CJ-Tala says:
ACTION - Lights all over the ship go out as the Engineering teams in Main Engineering disconnect the power feed from the warp core. As main power comes back online, yellow alert lights flash throughout the U.S.S. Scimitar. Teams frantically work around the clock to complete the extensive refits...all the while, avoiding the questions of the
Host CJ-Tala says:
Scimitar crew. A security team escorts K'Nargh to the brig for a night, and Black avoids the crew...working in his office day and night, planning for the rescue of the Federation President.
