USS Scimitar Summary - SD 10701.22 - "Into the Void" Episode 1 - .....Into the Fire.

The Scimitar had just come through the gate and was hailed by the USS Tal-War.  After a brief conversation and transfer of information, the Tal-War was tractored into the big ship and contact was lost.

The information given by the Tal-War is that the group the Scimitar is now facing is called the Legion and they have many worlds (not all voluntary) in their empire.  They have a very strict caste system and consider hostages as a valid form of currency.

A planet close by covered by water is one of the only planets not over run by the Legion.

OPS Lt Idrani says:
::looks over the data from the Tal-War at OPS::
CMO LtJG Numark says:
:: preparing sickbay for casualties ::
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
CTO: Sir, I've been going over the Tal-War's attempt at rotating their shield frequencies, and I think I can add to their plan.
FCO LtJG Gnav says:
::sits at the conn trying to stay out of weapons range::
XO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::Standing on the bridge.:: Ship wide: This is commander Abmeraz speaking to all personnel. Everyone to their posts, battle stations!
CSO LtCmdr Pierce says:
::Skims over the data received from the Tal-War. He notices that it seemed that the tractor beam hooked on a specific frequency that the shield modulated to::
CIV Cmdr Esjam says:
#COM Scimitar: This is Esjam, scramble all fighters, form up on my wing
CTO LtCmdr Jarot says:
::on the bridge of the Scimitar, checking the reports from the security teams across the ship::  Self: Dang.. this is taking too long...  ::shakes his head then turns to the TO::  TO: Let's hear it, Lieutenant...
OPS Lt Idrani says:
CSO: Apart from skipping out that frequency there must be something else
CO Capt MacAllister says:
::walks out of his ready room:: XO: I got cut off from the Tal... what's happened?
XO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::points to the view screen.:: CO: Need I say more?
CSO LtCmdr Pierce says:
OPS: We could send a counter beam. But the power requirements worry me
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
CTO: With every frequency change, we shot a magnetic pulse through our shield grid, spiking the output. It has proved effective against tractor beams before, and doing it -while- rotating frequencies might help.
CO Capt MacAllister says:
::looks at the screen:: XO: Oh for... how much data did we get?
CSO LtCmdr Pierce says:
::Modifies the shields so that the modulation stays away from the frequencies used by the Tal-War::
OPS Lt Idrani says:
CSO: How much power are we talking about? ::checks to see where power could be diverted from::
XO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::Turns to face science.:: CSO: Commander, you mentioned something about the data we received from the Tal-War. What information did we get?
CTO LtCmdr Jarot says:
::nods::  TO: Sounds like a plan...although I'm not sure the Chief would be pleased with you sending energy spikes through his distribution grid...  so, please check with OPS for a moment if he agrees... if so, implement your idea immediately.
Srian says:
@COM: Scimitar:  Now that my inconvenient situation is taken care of.  I will tell you again, prepare to present your papers and be boarded.  ::Looks almost bored.::
FCO LtJG Gnav says:
::got the programmed evasive manoeuvres on a set of ready-to-push-buttons::
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
CTO: Yes sir.
CO Capt MacAllister says:
::takes his seat::
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
::sends a short description of his plan to the OPS console::
OPS Lt Idrani says:
::relays the COMM through the speakers::
CIV Cmdr Esjam says:
#*CO* All fighters launched, fighter wing standing by for instructions
CSO LtCmdr Pierce says:
::Checks some graphs:: OPS: About 10 Galaxy size ships can provide ::smiles:: XO: Sir, it seems the tractor beam hooked on a specific frequency of the shields. I adjusted the shields to stay away from that range. A counter beam will not be possible due to the huge amounts of power we need
OPS Lt Idrani says:
::receives a message from the new TO and grumbles until he opens it::
CMO LtJG Numark says:
:: looks around sickbay and checks to see if everything is prepared::
CO Capt MacAllister says:
*CIV*: Take up Escort formation around the Scimitar Commander and use forward sensors for early warning.
XO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::Nods:: CSO: Noted. Which information did we get from the Tal-War about this vessel?
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
CSO: Sir, a tractor beam of our own would still buy us a few minutes if we get caught.
OPS Lt Idrani says:
CSO: Or a warp core reaction...
Srian says:
@::Drums his fingers on the arms of his chair waiting for an answer.:: Pilot:  Get their attention, have tactical fire a missile across their bow.
CIV Cmdr Esjam says:
#*CO* Aye Sir ::issues commands to disperse the fighters around the Scimitar::
Legion Pilot says:
@Srian:  Aye Sir.  ::Looks at the tactical officer and nods for him to fire.::
CSO LtCmdr Pierce says:
XO: We got their shield frequency as well. But it's a huge ship. We could use that information only as a last resort.
CTO LtCmdr Jarot says:
::shakes at the tactical readouts he's getting from the enemy vessel::  XO: Commander, I'm trying to get some solid tactical information on the enemy vessel... unfortunately it seems our sensors cannot fully penetrate their outer hull material... as such I'm unable to give you a good estimate of what we are up against.... logic suggest that they have vastly more power at their disposal... which would go the same for weapons and all... a tactical retreat might be in order... that way we can analyse the relevant data.
OPS Lt Idrani says:
CO: Sir, are we going to reply to the vessel?
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
::waits impatiently for a response from OPS::

ACTION:  A missile shoots across the Scimitars bow, barely missing it.

CSO LtCmdr Pierce says:
TO: I agree, but I don't intend us to get caught
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
CTO: Sir, they may have more power, but their power grid is still primitive.
CO Capt MacAllister says:
::hears the CSO and wanders over there:: CSO: Jon, if we changed the shield frequency on one of the fighters to match the big ship's shields... do you think it could slip through un-noticed?
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
::his console beeps as a proximity alert goes off:: CTO: Missile fire, missed us. Probably intentionally.
CO Capt MacAllister says:
::turns to Tactical:: CTO: Chief!
OPS Lt Idrani says:
::sends a response to the TO that every idea is welcome at this point::
FCO LtJG Gnav says:
Self: Wowsers, I think I have to back off
CSO LtCmdr Pierce says:
TO: If we know their shield frequency, could we fire our phasers at a specific point? Say to disable their power source? CO: That should work yes. But I recommend sending an unmanned vessel first, just to be on the safe side
CTO LtCmdr Jarot says:
::nods at the TO::  CO: They're giving us a warning shot across the bow, Captain.... they mean business...
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
CTO: OPS signed off on the idea, doing the calculations now.
CIV Cmdr Esjam says:
#*CO* Incoming fire. Are we cleared to return fire?
 Srian says:
@COM: Scimitar:  Now if I have your attention...stand by to be boarded...
CO Capt MacAllister says:
CSO: Do it... but don't let them see you doing it.
FCO LtJG Gnav says:
::backs the ship off::
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
CSO: Yes sir, but we don't know their system grid... I don't know what is what over there.
CTO LtCmdr Jarot says:
TO: Very well... let me know when you have it online....
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
::nods::
 Srian says:
@::Orders the ship to descend upon the Scimitar.::
OPS Lt Idrani says:
::tries to think of a way to get so much power:: CSO: What if we found a way to get our energy directly from the gate...would that be enough?
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
::taps into the power systems and starts a feed back loop through the shield grid::
CO Capt MacAllister says:
COM: Srian: Sir, your actions have constituted an act of piracy... I will do everything in my power to defend my ship... you have been warned. ::signals to OPS to cut the COM::
XO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::turns to face the CO and frowns.::
CSO LtCmdr Pierce says:
OPS: Try to identify some vulnerable points on that ship. *TIC*: Pierce here, I want an unmanned, remote controlled vessel in space within 10 minutes. Contact me before launching it. I'm sending some parameters for you to program in the vessel
CTO LtCmdr Jarot says:
TO: As for their power grid.... even if it was very primitive... a vessel of that seize would have large redundant systems and we would have to massive damage to knock them out of the air so to speak... and in that time they would have enough time to blow us out of the sky...
CO Capt MacAllister says:
FCO: Take us out of their weapons range.
OPS Lt Idrani says:
::cuts the com and waits for the CSO's answer::
XO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
CO: Sir... I think we should run... not stay.... run away... FAR away
CSO LtCmdr Pierce says:
OPS: I doubt it will be enough. Not to mention that we still need that to get back
CO Capt MacAllister says:
XO: Take care of it.
 Srian says:
@::Turns purple at the impudent Captains words.  Has decided he will become Srian's personal pet.  A medical officer whispers in Srian’s ear and a big smile comes across his face.. He mouths... Captain you are mine and I got a special place for you in my ship.::
FCO LtJG Gnav says:
CO: That's what I've been doing all along Sir. ::backs off the ship more::
OPS Lt Idrani says:
::looks through the Tal-Wars data and new scans for weak spots on the vessel::
CIV Cmdr Esjam says:
#::maintains fighter cover around the Scimitar::
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
CTO: I agree sir, but still...a few of our quantum torpedoes. ::points to the scans:: here, and here. I think these are weapons ports, should give us a fighting chance.
FCO LtJG Gnav says:
::moves the Scimitar backwards at one quarter impulse, ready to flee at high speed::
XO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::nods:: CO: It will be done. ::Takes a step forward.:: FCO: Gnav, turn this heap of metal around and get us the hell out of here!! ::Turns slightly:: CTO: make sure we have maximum shields at the rear, I don't want to give these guys a sitting duck to shoot at!

ACTION:  All the telepaths onboard the Scimitar and fighters feel a probing at their minds.

CSO LtCmdr Pierce says:
*TIC*: What's the status on that vessel?
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
XO: Sir, shields are ready. We've also implemented a plan against their tractor beam.
CMO LtJG Numark says:
:: wanders around sickbay making sure everything is in its place::
TIC Officer says:
*CSO*: Almost done, give us a few minutes. We're technicians, not magicians ::cuts the com::
XO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::notices the fighters are still out there.:: *CIV*: Commander, we are pulling back. I need you to defend the Scimitar at all cost. Shoot anything that can be shot, which they shoot at us.
CO Capt MacAllister says:
::thinks and turns to the turbo lift, just as he steps in he sticks his head out:: TO: Tony!
OPS Lt Idrani says:
CSO/XO: All our readings are incomplete, I can't figure out which areas are weaker.
FCO LtJG Gnav says:
::activates already laid in co-ordinates and engages:: XO: Bearing 180 mark 270, warp 2.
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
::looks after the Captain and walks after him quickly:: CO: On your six, Boss!
CTO LtCmdr Jarot says:
::nods at the XO::  XO: Aye Sir...  ::glances at the TO and sees him walking away and shakes head, then slaves Tac 2 to his station and reinforces the rear shields::
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
::enters the TL next to the CO: What's the plan, Mac ?
CIV Cmdr Esjam says:
#*XO*  Aye Sir, happy to oblige ::switches the fighter wing into a cover formation between the Scimitar and alien vessel::
CO Capt MacAllister says:
::orders the turbo lift down to torpedo storage:: TO: You still got those schematics you were working on to modify quantum torpedoes?
 Srian says:
@::Furiously whispers to his medical staff.::  Medical:  Are you sure...there is no doubt?  Why the ruse?  ::Smiles::  I'd love to extract that information out of him.
CSO LtCmdr Pierce says:
OPS/CTO: Okay let's use some common sense here. If you were a ship that size... Where would the power source or bridge be?
OPS Lt Idrani says:
CSO: Power source? Somewhere in the middle... Bridge? The place with the best view
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
CO: Uhm, well...you mean since from 6 years ago? Well yes, I can do that.
FCO LtJG Gnav says:
::monitors engines, headings and bearings::
Legion Medic says:
@Srian:  Ruse or not.  He is what we want and we can make use of him.  As soon as you got him let me know and I'll begin.  ::Turns and walks off the bridge.::
CO Capt MacAllister says:
TO: Do it, I'm not letting this ship fall into the hands of those ::pauses:: Pirates!
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
::laughs:: CO: We can add probably 12 isotones to their yield, but that's all. We still need to know where to shoot at, Mac.
TIC Officer says:
*CSO*: Sir the vessel is ready with the modified shields. Ready to launch
CSO LtCmdr Pierce says:
*CO*: Sir the unmanned vessel is ready
CTO LtCmdr Jarot says:
CSO/OPS: Well, if it is indeed a warship both the power source and bridge would be in the centre of the ship...  it’s seize in their strength in a way... so you would have a lot of metal between you and the outer hull....
CO Capt MacAllister says:
*CSO*: Have them mask the vessel's engine signatures and send it in on grey mode.
XO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
CSO/OPS: I don’t think that their power supply is in the middle. A ship that size needs to have a big power source, which if it fails will take the entire ship with it. It must be somewhere where it can be released. I would suggest the rear for that.
OPS Lt Idrani says:
CTO/CSO: And I don't suppose we could transport anything into the centre of the ship anyway
CTO LtCmdr Jarot says:
CSO/OPS: My scans, however, where unable to scan beyond the hull... have any of you been able to ascertain the material that the outer hull of the ship has been made off ?
CO Capt MacAllister says:
TO: Great... I'll have Jarot work on finding a weak spot, you just get those torpedoes fixed and loaded up.

ACTION:  The mind probing becomes more aggressive and in some cases painful.

TO LtJG Adalberto says:
CO: How many? This takes time you know...I can't just snap my fingers.
OPS Lt Idrani says:
CTO/CSO: Not as yet, all my scans come back as incomplete
CTO LtCmdr Jarot says:
OPS: Before beaming anything you would need to get a lock first.... but we can't even penetrate their outer hull...so... no.
CSO LtCmdr Pierce says:
*CO*: Sending vessel now. *TIC*: Mask the engine signature. I want it to approach that ship unnoticed FCO: Are we at a speed where we can launch a vessel? If we're not, could you give us a 30 second window please?
CO Capt MacAllister says:
TO: As many as you can fix before they catch up with us... Time is of the essence Tony, I don't think I have to remind you of that
OPS Lt Idrani says:
CTO: No, that was my point...unless we can use their tractor beam to relay a transporter beam?
FCO LtJG Gnav says:
::taps his COM badge:: *CSO*: We're at warp 2 now sir. I'll drop the ship out of warp for 30 seconds at your mark.
CIV Cmdr Esjam says:
#::Sends Vorik, his Vulcan wingman back to the ship as he is unable to maintain formation::
CSO LtCmdr Pierce says:
XO: It seems like they couldn't take over the planet here. Something about the water. I suggest we send a team there to find out if we can use that to our advantage
FCO LtJG Gnav says:
::prepares the ship and IDF for a sudden stop from warp 2 to nil::
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
CO: Well...that would probably be 3, maybe 4 warheads....if you plan on running, then more. ::grins::
CO Capt MacAllister says:
TO: If the XO understood my last command, we should already be running. ::smiles::
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
CO: More it is, Macky boy!
CTO LtCmdr Jarot says:
OPS: I'm not sure we can...  our transporter beam would be easily disrupted by the tractor beam....
OPS Lt Idrani says:
CTO/CSO: Even knowing their tractor beam frequencies?
XO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::turns around.:: CSO: That sounds like a good plan, but right now we need all the people here on the ship. I don't want to risk leaving anyone behind. Can you try and scan the water to determine what might be scaring them off?
CSO LtCmdr Pierce says:
XO: I'll do my best sir. FCO: IN 10 seconds please. *TIC*: Launch the vessel in 20 seconds
FCO LtJG Gnav says:
::gets distracted because of the mind probe::
FCO LtJG Gnav says:
*CSO*: Huh, what?
CSO LtCmdr Pierce says:
FCO: 5 seconds until you can drop us out of warp
CO Capt MacAllister says:
::nods as the lift reaches the right deck:: TO: Don't let me down Tony... I'm going to sickbay.
CIV Cmdr Esjam says:
#*CMO* One of my pilots is returning to the ship, he has severe head pains and is unable to fly. If you could patch him up and get him back to the ship I'd appreciate it
FCO LtJG Gnav says:
*CSO*: Aye, Sir. Ouch.
XO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
CSO: That is all I ask right now. ::sits down in the captains' chair.::
FCO LtJG Gnav says:
::drops the ship out of warp:: *CSO*: Now sir.
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
CO: Do I ever? ::looks hurt, then grins as the TL doors close again::
CSO LtCmdr Pierce says:
*TIC*: Go!
CTO LtCmdr Jarot says:
::nods::  OPS: Afraid so... even if the transporter beam would raise the tractor emitter... it would not give us a targeting position... we might have more luck hacking into their computer system and finding our targets that way...
CMO LtJG Numark says:
*CIV*: Sure thing sir.
CO Capt MacAllister says:
::orders the lift to sickbay::

ACTION:  A shimmering begins around the CO and he disappears  from the Turbo lift between decks 4 and 5 of the Scimitar and rematerializes on the bridge of the Legion Ship.

TIC Officer says:
*CSO*: Ship launched
OPS Lt Idrani says:
CTO: Not a bad idea...if we had that much time
 Srian says:
@::Sees his pet materialize beside him and smiles.  Tactical surrounds him.::
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
::starts running towards the Armoury::
CMO LtJG Numark says:
::sees the officer wander into sickbay ::
FCO LtJG Gnav says:
::gets the ship to warp 2 again::
CO Capt MacAllister says:
@::looks around and reaches for his phaser which, once again, isn't there::
 Srian says:
@CO:  Hello my little pet.  I have a big job for you, Wolf in sheep’s clothing.  Why would a Cardassian make himself look like this?  Doesn't matter really I got a special spot for you.  You are going to power my weapons array.  I'm going to let you kill your little playmates.
CMO LtJG Numark says:
Pilot: take a seat on one of the bio beds and we'll soon have you fixed up.
CSO LtCmdr Pierce says:
FCO: Thank you, that was perfect. ::Initiates a scan of the planet::
CO Capt MacAllister says:
@Srian: Who the hell are you calling Cardassian?!?!
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
::enters the Armoury and jumps down the stairs:: All: Bring me four quantum torpedoes! We're going to add a little bang to their boom! ::grins::
Fighter Pilot says:
CMO: It’s my head, so dizzy, the pain ::he collapses on the bio bed::
CTO LtCmdr Jarot says:
::nods at OPS and glances at the tactical readouts they got from the large enemy vessel::
FCO LtJG Gnav says:
::grabs his head in pain::
 Srian says:
@::Laughs out loud::  CO:  You.  My medical team here.. ::Medical appears on the bridge again.::  Are going to strip away your layers Cardassian and then put you to work.  Why the ruse?  I'm very curious...
FCO LtJG Gnav says:
::faints and falls with his head on the console::
CMO LtJG Numark says:
:: scans the pilot and checks for everything ::
XO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::watches the whole show of stopping, launching and going.:: CSO: Anything on the water yet?
PO Ramarez says:
TO: Yes sir! ::motions for the crew to bring them from the racks::
OPS Lt Idrani says:
::turns back to his console trying to think of another solution: FCO: Vonir?
FCO LtJG Gnav says:
::not hard::
CO Capt MacAllister says:
@Srian: I'm telling you I am NOT a Cardassian, and I resent the implication that you are making here!
CSO LtCmdr Pierce says:
::Looks at the FCO:: *CMO*: Doc, the FCO Just collapsed, send someone up here
 Srian says:
@CO:  Why?  You consider Cardassians inferior to you.. is that why.  You are trying to deny your heritage?
CMO LtJG Numark says:
*CSO*: Right away sir.

ACTION:  A sharp pain goes through the CO's head.

TO LtJG Adalberto says:
::walks over to a toolkit and brings out an isolinear inducer::
OPS Lt Idrani says:
::scans the FCO with a tricorder recalling his medical training::
CO Capt MacAllister says:
@out loud: NYAAAAAAAAAAAARGH
 Srian says:
@::Stands up and smiles, walks around him::  CO:  Or are you spying on them....getting their secrets.  Are they so weak that they can't detect a traitor?
XO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::Rushes towards the FCO, whilst grabbing a med kit. He kneels down beside the FCO and tries to check him physically, since he has no medical tricorder anymore.:: FCO: Gnav, you okay?
CMO LtJG Numark says:
MO_Doyle: Head to the FCO on the bridge and check he's ok he's just collapsed.
CO Capt MacAllister says:
@::shakes his head:: Srian: Is who so weak?
CO Capt MacAllister says:
@Srian: Make sense Dammit!
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
::opens the casing on one of the torpedoes, Ramarez helping him::
FCO LtJG Gnav says:
::doesn't respond::
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
PO: Start working on the next torpedo, take the warheads out and wait.
 Srian says:
@CO:  Your little playmates of course.  ::Has the medical team show scans of the CO to MacAllister::  See....Your body says you are Cardassian.  You just don't look like one.
PO Ramarez says:
TO: Yes sir. ::walks over to the next one and starts opening it up::
CO Capt MacAllister says:
@Srian: Fine, so you caught me... so what?
Doyle says:
CMO: Right away sir. :: picks up a med kit and heads to the bridge::
XO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::Positions the FCO carefully in a more comfortable position as he turns towards the CSO again.:: CSO: Commander, the planet... anything yet? We could do with some information to scare these beings off.
OPS Lt Idrani says:
::next to the XO::
CSO LtCmdr Pierce says:
::Walks over to the FCO's console and checks their course and speed::
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
::places the warhead on the table and activates the inducer, disabling the circuits::
 Srian says:
@CO:  The so what is.... You are a fuel source and I intend to use you.  I was gonna keep you as a pet, but..... ::Shrugs::  You are more valuable to me powering my weapons systems.
OPS Lt Idrani says:
::goes back to his console humming "the wicked witch is dead::
CTO LtCmdr Jarot says:
XO: Commander, I'm afraid further analysis of the tactical retrieved from the enemy vessel has not appeared to be conclusive... we're still guessing what their outer hull plating is made off...
CO Capt MacAllister says:
@Srian: Fuel? How the hell do you intend to use us as fuel?
Doyle says:
:: arrives on the bridge and heads over to the FCO::
FCO LtJG Gnav says:
::is breathing but unconsciousness::
CSO LtCmdr Pierce says:
::With no one looking he changes the course to the planet. He has a feeling that they will find answers there... And maybe even an ally::
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
::opens the warhead casing and brings out the charge and hands it to one of the officers on duty:: PO2: Take this, disable the safety protocols and boost this by...12 isotones.
XO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::Nods towards the CTO and curses to himself for a moment.:: CTO: Alright commander. ::pauses.:: I take it we can still keep out of their range?
CMO LtJG Numark says:
:: gives the pilot a shot of  an analgesic to ease the head trauma::
PO2 Goran says:
TO: Sir? That could blow inside our tubes.

ACTION: All the telepaths who have been treated begin to feel better.

 Srian says:
@::Sits back down and motions for the Captain to sit also.:: CO:  We are biometrically powered, meaning we need a live fuel source.  Our current source is dying out and attempts to get the population to reproduce have failed.  Therefore we needed a new source.  We found this gate that took us to other worlds.  Discretely obtaining beings we tested and tested until we found the Cardassians.  There is something in your blood that makes you compatible to our systems.  The bonus is, there is an unyielding supply at our finger tips.  We just have to go and get more when we need it.
FCO LtJG Gnav says:
::comes around:: All and no-one in specific: Who, what, where? ::is a little dizzy::
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
PO2: Petty officer, the Captain wanted 11...I say 12 is better, and I've done this before. You can take this up with him later if you want. I don't think he would like to be bothered now.
CTO LtCmdr Jarot says:
::nods::  XO: We can try... this planet might be the ideal ground for hiding from them until we are ready to give them a run for their money.
CO Capt MacAllister says:
@Srian: And let me guess.. this is fatal to us?
Doyle says:
FCO: you passed out sir, but you seem to be fine now just be steady as you move .
 Srian says:
@::Shrugs at the implication::  CO: Fuel tanks run out.  Is that a problem for you?
XO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::Sighs:: CTO: Thank you. ::Tries to help the FCO to sit up.:: FCO Lieutenant, you think you can get us into low orbit of that planet? Low enough to have those people to stay clear of us?
FCO LtJG Gnav says:
Doyle/XO: I may seem fine, but I hope I dreamt what I remember. If not, then it's quite disturbing.

ACTION:  The unmanned probe disappears from sensors.

CO Capt MacAllister says:
@Srian: you haven't done much research on us have you? We're not afraid to die. but let me ask you this... have you ever tested humans?
OPS Lt Idrani says:
::checks to see if he can contact the probe they left behind::
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
::starts taking the next warhead apart::
CSO LtCmdr Pierce says:
::Self: blast::
Doyle says:
FCO: ok, if you have trouble sleeping or anything please don't hesitate in coming to sickbay.
 Srian says:
@::Looks at MacAllister::  CO:  What is your real name?  To answer your question...No we haven't.  We didn't get that far, but as you know I just got a ship full of humans I'm assuming, so taking the females out of the equation...I got several men interested in new mates....we might test them or if they are suitable integrate them into our army.
XO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::Helps the FCO up carefully.:: FCO: Dream what?
CSO LtCmdr Pierce says:
*CIV*: How are you doing commander?
Doyle says:
FCO: You’re welcome. :: smiles and heads back down to sickbay::
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
::taps his COM badge:: *CO*: Captain, this is Tony. We're almost done on the second warhead. These guys down here know their stuff.
CO Capt MacAllister says:
@Srian: Jarrek. And there's a lot you don't know about me. I could be of more use to you than fuel.
FCO LtJG Gnav says:
XO: It seemed I was on that vessel.
 Srian says:
@::Steeples his hands before his face.::  CO:  Do tell.
XO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
FCO: ON that vessel? Is there anything you can remember about it? Anything at all? Did you see or hear anything that might be of importance?
Computer says:
TO:  Captain MacAllister is no longer on board the Scimitar.
FCO LtJG Gnav says:
XO: It looked like I was looking through the eyes of one of them on board.
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
Computer: What? Then where the hell is he, you bucket of bolts! ::feels a shiver down his spine::
Jarrek says:
@Srian: The majority of Cardassians have decided that peace between them and the humans would benefit them, but I come from a small group with other ideas.
CSO LtCmdr Pierce says:
XO: The unmanned vessel failed sir. The CIV is still out there. Maybe we can send  him to the planet?
XO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
FCO: Alright, go on... what did you see? ::Motions for the CSO and CTO to listen to what the FCO might have to say.::
 Srian says:
@CO:  Continue...
CTO LtCmdr Jarot says:
::nods at the XO and moves closer to him and the FCO::
CIV Cmdr Esjam says:
#*XO* Sir, when I felt that pain in my head it felt as though the symbiont could see inside the ship. I had images of lots of Cardassians, they appeared to be linked to machinery, I also saw some kind of large brain floating in some sort of fluid
XO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
CSO: Granted, have him in low orbit and rendezvous with us as soon as we arrive there as well.
Jarrek says:
@Srian: I was swapped with the real Captain MacAllister to infiltrate a Federation vessel and do everything in my power to put them back at war with the Cardassian people.
CSO LtCmdr Pierce says:
*CIV*: Please fly to the planet. We'll meet in orbit. Nice flying, keep it up
Doyle says:
:: arrives back to sickbay and reports to the CMO::
 Srian says:
@Jarrek:  How well have you succeeded...?  This would suit our needs greatly...With different factions at each other's throat we can swoop in and conquer.
FCO LtJG Gnav says:
XO/CTO/CSO: I noticed Cardassians and a brain. Just a plain brain floating there.
XO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::tries to stay focussed on the FCO as well.:: *CIV*: Are you saying that these beings might be a variation to the already familiar Borg?
Jarrek says:
@Srian: I was programmed as a sleeper, I was given all of MacAllister's memories and my memory of being Cardassian was suppressed to allow me to gather information on the ship, it's weapons and shield characteristics, schematics and command codes. so far I know everything that he does... in fact maybe more.
Computer says:
TO:  He is not longer onboard the Scimitar.
OPS Lt Idrani says:
::sends a message to the probe with the latest data and a  federation encryption code with a warning::
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
Self: Shit...
 Srian says:
@Jarrek:  I tell you what.  If you don't deceive me.. I'll let you live.  Your information proves useful...::smiles::  Maybe we can do business.
CIV Cmdr Esjam says:
#*XO* They didn't appear to be Borg in origin. If I 'see' anything else I'll get back to you. Heading for the planet, any specific instructions for when I get there?
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
::taps his badge:: *Bridge*: Bridge! This is Adalberto! The Captain is no longer aboard!
CSO LtCmdr Pierce says:
*TO*: What do you mean? Computer: Computer, where is the CO?
OPS Lt Idrani says:
*TO*: What?!
CTO LtCmdr Jarot says:
FCO/CSO/XO: That is a weird observation indeed....  ::hears the TO's comm. and frowns::
Jarrek says:
@Srian: I'll tell you what... you help me jump start the war between the federation and the Cardassians and I'll tell you everything you want to know.
CSO LtCmdr Pierce says:
Computer: Computer, What is the last known location of the CO and what event took place at that time?
 Srian says:
@::Stands up again towering over the Captain.::  Jarrek:  For now you have a deal.  ::Holds out his hand.::
XO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
*CIV*: Good. Maintain in low orbit of the planet. If the vessel comes to close... ::Looks at the CSO.:: head for the water. You should be able to.
CMO LtJG Numark says:
:: finishes sorting the pilot out and sends him on his way::
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
::sighs and hits his hand against the bulkhead::
Jarrek says:
@::takes the hand and squeezes it tightly as he shakes it::
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
Self: Mac...if you're dead, I'll kill you.
Computer says:
CSO:  Captain MacAllister was in the turbo lift 2.  An unknown energy surrounded him and he was no longer in the turbo lift.
 Srian says:
@Jarrek:  Let's go celebrate...  ::Steps aside for Jarrek to move before him.::
OPS Lt Idrani says:
::accesses the internal sensors of the time the CO went missing::
CSO LtCmdr Pierce says:
XO: Sounds like they beamed the  CO to their ship. CTO: This sounds like a security breach.
FCO LtJG Gnav says:
::steers the ship into low orbit::
Jarrek says:
@::smiles and gestures for Srian to lead the way::
OPS Lt Idrani says:
XO: Maybe going back and getting some more help might be a nice idea
CTO LtCmdr Jarot says:
::nods::  CSO: Apparently...  OPS: We better close down that TL... move it to the bridge... then CSO can examine it... we need to know how they penetrated our defences...
CIV Cmdr Esjam says:
#*XO* Understood, although I'll try to keep my feet dry
XO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
::Swirls around:: CSO: They did WHAT? ::Looks in thought for a moment.:: FCO: Alright Lieutenant, head for the planet... on the double.
TO LtJG Adalberto says:
All: Finish these modifications! Remember to disengage the safety protocols first before loading the extra payload! ::runs out of the Armoury and starts running for the TL::
OPS Lt Idrani says:
::acknowledges the XO and carries out his order::
FCO LtJG Gnav says:
::turns to XO:: XO: Sir, we already are.
XO Cmdr Abmeraz says:
FCO: Into the water lieutenant, take us down. ::turns:: CSO: Inform the CIV to do the same.
FCO LtJG Gnav says:
XO: Into? Aye Sir, going to blue alert.
CSO LtCmdr Pierce says:
*CIV*: Go down to the planet and head for the water. We're doing the same. The CO has gone missing so we've been compromised

ACTION:  Blue Alert

CIV Cmdr Esjam says:
#*CSO* Understood
