***** Continue Pharaoh Mission****** "meetings"

CO von Krieg says:
::sitting in the hard chair with a frown and reviewing tactical maps of the spatial flickers::

MO Whitecloud says:
::working in sickbay going over charts ::

FCO Horn says:
::at helm control. Checking her systems::

SO Qwynn says:
:: on bridge at Science station ::

SO Qwynn says:
:: preparing for meeting with the Captain in case she needs to attend ::

MO Whitecloud says:
::Checks over the CTO's Chart as he walks over to his Bio-bed::

FCO Horn says:
CO: Everything seems to check out at helm control

CO von Krieg says:
::gets up and lands stiffly on his right leg, moves to the situation table::

TO Williams says:
::At the TAC stations, firing at incoming torpedoes::

OPS Stidd says:
::Sits at OPS going over all the data accumulated so far::

CO von Krieg says:
FCO: Thank you. Maintain station keeping.

XO Starks says:
:: walks onto bridge and sits at the situation table ::

Host John A says:
ACTION: The Pharaoh hangs at station keeping just outside the Revelle Asteroid field.

SO Qwynn says:
:: gathers her thoughts and PADD and proceeds to the ST ::

FCO Horn says:
CO: Aye sir

MO Whitecloud says:
CTO: According to this the neural activity has been  mostly restored to normal , but I want you to report back here if you feel anything out of the ordinary

CO von Krieg says:
*All*: Senior staff report to the bridge.

SO Qwynn says:
:: nods a greeting to fellow crew members ::

XO Starks says:
CO: sorry I'm late sir, I must have passed out in my cabin

CO von Krieg says:
XO: I understand commander. Are you up to speed on our situation?

XO Starks says:
:: punches up the Ship's status at the table's console :: CO: aye sir

CTO Riker says:
::walks out of  SB and heads to the  TL:: 

CTO Riker says:
Computer: bridge 

CO von Krieg says:
::punches up local star charts and waits to staff to assemble::

TO Williams says:
::Is at TAC, running tactical simulations, blowing up torpedoes, and studying algorithms::

MO Whitecloud says:
::walks over to the chart table and puts the chart in the "to be filed " slots and grabs another reviewing it ::

TO Williams says:
::Blows up the rest of the torpedoes, and shuts down the training program::

CTO Riker says:
:: arrives on the  bridge  and walks out of the  TL over to the  TAC station ::

TO Williams says:
::Stands up and nods at the CTO, and takes his seat on the side::

MO Whitecloud says:
::clears another crewman for duty and sends him on his way ::

XO Starks says:
self: was it real or not? If we were to go into the field would we be fired upon or not? Damn I hate space time warps

CO von Krieg says:
::taps Comm badge and calls to sickbay:: *MO*: Mr. Whitecloud, has the medical department determined if the probe effected an physiological damage to the crew.

MO Whitecloud says:
::glances at clock and notices it is nearly time for sick call ::

OPS Stidd says:
::turns to the CO::CO: These readings are most peculiar.  I am looking for a temporal quantum singularity or some resonance of the same.

MO Whitecloud says:
*CO* Captain, no apparent long term ill effects, they were mostly temporary in nature it seems

XO Starks says:
:: taps commbadge:: PO Lantz: Check for a slight temporal buildup in the core, it's happened in the past and I don't want us shot back 1,000 years if we try to go to warp

CO von Krieg says:
*MO* Acknowledged.

MO Whitecloud says:
*CO* But I am writing up a full report, the Phenomena cause a temporary "Overload" if you will of the synaptic pathways

Host John A says:
<Lantz> XO: Checking sir

CO von Krieg says:
All: time travel is not my specialty. However, I need to know if we can leave this area of space without causing a temporal event.

CO von Krieg says:
OPS: Mr. Stidd, can a singularity cause such a loop?

XO Starks says:
CO: Engineering is checking for temporal emissions that may have been trapped in the core now, I doubt they'll find anything but we can't be too safe

Host John A says:
ACTION: as the Eng PO reports all clear, a warning sounds from the OPS station

XO Starks says:
OPS: report!

OPS Stidd says:
CO: If it is a quantum temporal singularity, it could.  The problem is that I am finding no evidence of this or any other temporal force at work.  These readings are almost too good.

SO Qwynn says:
:: gets the feeling she's being watched ::

OPS Stidd says:
CO: The term Caviat Emptor Comes to mind sir.

CO von Krieg says:
::nods his head at OPS::

SO Qwynn says:
:: reviews her notes, switches over to review her dream log ::

SO Qwynn says:
:: switches back to her notes ::

CO von Krieg says:
::walks back to command chair::

XO Starks says:
:: moves to the OPS station behind the Captain ::

OPS Stidd says:
::Examines his board:: CO: The bridge replicator is pulling too much power.

XO Starks says:
OPS: the replicator?

CO von Krieg says:
SO: Mr. Qwynn, what is the opinion from sciences.

OPS Stidd says:
XO: Yes sir

XO Starks says:
OPS: shut it down 

OPS Stidd says:
::Attempts to shut down the replicator::

SO Qwynn says:
CO: Scientifically, I'd advise we continue our scans and proceed with caution directly to Tenerus Station, sir

XO Starks says:
CO: I concur with the SO sir

XO Starks says:
CO:...no need to go in their if there is even a chance of being fired upon

Host John A says:
ACTION: As the device refuses to shut down, it produces an Ice cold cup of hot chocolate and states is it's mechanical voice.. " live long and prosper"

CO von Krieg says:
All: I concur. Mr. Horn. Take us home. Around the Revelle Field, please.

XO Starks says:
OPS: get a DC team to look at the replicator systems

FCO Horn says:
::Plots course:: CO: Aye sir, course plotted and ready to engage

XO Starks says:
:: spins to looks at the replicator slot and the frozen drink ::

CO von Krieg says:
FCO: Engage.

FCO Horn says:
::Engages engines::

OPS Stidd says:
XO: Aye sir.:: Rotates at the phrase used by the replicator::

MO Whitecloud says:
::goes to the replicator and asks for a new speculum ::

FCO Horn says:
::Starts giggling when she hears the replicator::

XO Starks says:
*ENG* I thought you said all systems were 100%, we got a malfunctioning replicator on the bridge

MO Whitecloud says:
::waits ::

CO von Krieg says:
CTO: Mr. Riker, please make sure our weapons systems are functioning within expected tolerances.

OPS Stidd says:
::Uses tricorder on the drink and then the replicator::

Host John A says:
ACTION: The replicator produces the cadaver of a tribble and again states: "Live long and prosper"

XO Starks says:
*ENG* cut power to ALL ship replicators

SO Qwynn says:
:: initiates multiple scans of the area ::

CTO Riker says:
CO: aye sir 

MO Whitecloud says:
::looks at the Tribble ::

CO von Krieg says:
All: Again, a contradiction.

TO Williams says:
::Shakes his head at the replicator::

XO Starks says:
OPS: get rid of that ::points to Tribble::

CO von Krieg says:
::punches up the deuterium storage tanks to check the levels.::

MO Whitecloud says:
*OPS* Is there a malfunction I should be aware of in the computer system that controls the replicators ?

TO Williams says:
CO: I can shut the replicator down... ::grins as he motions to his phaser::

OPS Stidd says:
ALL: The replicator is showing up as working fine

SO Qwynn says:
:: walks up to the XO :: XO: Is this the reverse syndrome again, or are we missing something?

Host John A says:
ACTION: The replicator shuts down in mid sentence... as it does the helm takes a mind of it's own and changes coarse for collision with the nearest star... at Max Warp

XO Starks says:
SO: I wish I knew  :: moves to bridge ENG station and sits down ::

CO von Krieg says:
::alert klaxons blare::

MO Whitecloud says:
::looks about :: Ugh oh

XO Starks says:
:: hands fly over the ENG panel :: CO: the engines won't respond!

SO Qwynn says:
XO: If it's not reverse because of anything we can find on our sensors, do we trust or sensors?.... :: checks her footing ::

OPS Stidd says:
*MO*: The tricorders say no but the replicator here on the bridge show otherwise.  I recommend no further use of the replicators at the present time.

FCO Horn says:
::Tries frantically to shut down engines when notices the course change:: CO: I think we have a problem, trying to shut down engines

XO Starks says:
CO: should I try a core ejection?

MO Whitecloud says:
*OPS* Agreed, please inform me when it is safe to do so

TO Williams says:
The Bridge: Okay, I’m really sorry about the phaser joke... please don't crash the ship.  :Shrugs at the Captain::

Host John A says:
ACTION: An angry hum permeates engineering as the engines keep their frantic pace...

OPS Stidd says:
*MO*: Will do.

CO von Krieg says:
XO: Prepare for core ejection.

XO Starks says:
CO: aye sir!

FCO Horn says:
::Fingers fly across her panel to no avail::

SO Qwynn says:
:: grabs a tricorder ::

XO Starks says:
*ENG* evacuate main engine room! 

MO Whitecloud says:
::wonders what the devil is going on "up there" ::

XO Starks says:
CO: ready to eject on your command!

OPS Stidd says:
CO: Captain, None of this seems real.

CO von Krieg says:
::moves over to the engineering panel:: XO: Can we restrict the magnetic interlocks?

SO Qwynn says:
:: scans the bridge ::

XO Starks says:
CO: no response to the controls, I don't even know if the eject system will work...won't know till we try

SO Qwynn says:
Computer: How many people are on this ship?

CO von Krieg says:
FCO: time to impact.

MO Whitecloud says:
::wonders about the ghost in the machine ::

OPS Stidd says:
Computer: level 3 diagnostic and report to OPS station when complete

OPS Stidd says:
::Moves back to OPS::

FCO Horn says:
CO: 2mins and 9 sec till impact sir, and the controls still wont respond

SO Qwynn says:
:: changes setting from short range scan of the entire bridge, to a finer beam scan, starting near the FCO ::

CO von Krieg says:
OPS: Do our systems confirm jumping to warp?

TO Williams says:
::Wishes he could do something... the lowly security officer::

MO Whitecloud says:
::Discards the tribble corpse and kicks the replicator ::

FCO Horn says:
CO: We might try venting plasma from one of the nacelles. That might throw us off course and miss the object

Host John A says:
ACTION: As the crew tries to stop the ship, it enters the "kill zone" of the star... Klaxons and warnings about critical outer hull temperature are heard... a moment later the ship is engulfed in a bright blinding light...

OPS Stidd says:
CO: Checking on it now sir.

CO von Krieg says:
FCO: Do it.

SO Qwynn says:
:: uses tricorder to scan the electrical system on the bridge ::

FCO Horn says:
::Begins venting plasma from the starboard nacelle only and monitors for any course change::

XO Starks says:
:: puts arms up in front of face ::

CO von Krieg says:
::shields his eyes::

OPS Stidd says:
CO: According to this we did jump to warp, but it is still showing everything operating  at 100%

Host John A says:
ACTION: The crew comes to, to find themselves at warp 2 enroute to Tenerus Alpha.

XO Starks says:
:: stands up :: ALL: all stations report!

SO Qwynn says:
All: why do I feel like I'm failing a simulation repeatedly?  :: hurries to her station ::

FCO Horn says:
CO: My instruments show we are back on course to base

OPS Stidd says:
::Closes his eyes and checks his own mental state out::

MO Whitecloud says:
*XO* Sickbay , prepared for casualties

FCO Horn says:
::Double checks her readings to confirm::

SO Qwynn says:
XO: all science systems functioning

CO von Krieg says:
::steps forward:: FCO: Thank you. All: Stand down from red alert.

XO Starks says:
CO: well science is again failing us

XO Starks says:
SO: do you feel anything out of the ordinary?

MO Whitecloud says:
*XO* Correction, we have a few casualties coming in now

SO Qwynn says:
XO: Sir?

XO Starks says:
SO: you may have an insight we lack

XO Starks says:
*MO* send the list to the bridge ENG station 

TO Williams says:
::Sighs, and smiles at the FCO, for doing a good job... even if she didn't have much control of what was happening::

CO von Krieg says:
OPS: Every action we take seems to precipitate an opposite reaction.

MO Whitecloud says:
::begins triage and is relieved to see mostly bruises with a few broken bones ::

SO Qwynn says:
XO: The level of agitation in the crew is increasing.

OPS Stidd says:
CO: Newton’s third law of physics.

MO Whitecloud says:
*XO* Compiling a list now, sir

OPS Stidd says:
CO: Only different

XO Starks says:
:: pats the SOs shoulder:: SO: that much is certain

FCO Horn says:
CO: May I suggest of doing the opposite of what we normally would do.

CTO Riker says:
CO: then if we do the opposite of what we would normally do  it should work  don’t you think sir ?

CO von Krieg says:
OPS/SO: Does this incident conform to any known laws of physics?

XO Starks says:
ALL: and how long do we go on doing the "opposite" our entire lives?

SO Qwynn says:
XO: I'm not sensing any other presence’s, if that's what you're asking.  Again, everything seems almost 'too' normal, given the situation

OPS Stidd says:
CO: What if this is not real.  None of it is real.

MO Whitecloud says:
::compiles the list and probable prognosis and sends it to the bridge Eng Station ::

XO Starks says:
SO: perhaps...artificial?

SO Qwynn says:
CO: It's similar to a causality loop, but we're not returning to the same loop

CO von Krieg says:
OPS: Then we cannot trust our instruments or our observations.

FCO Horn says:
::Overhearing what OPS said:: ALL: If this is not real then what is real?

MO Whitecloud says:
*XO* You should have it available on the Engineering console, we are beginning treatment

SO Qwynn says:
XO: I no longer sense that artificial presence I felt when we first encountered the object

XO Starks says:
FCO: that ship we saw was real I bet

XO Starks says:
*MO* proceed

FCO Horn says:
XO: Maybe we should start there and try to find out what is "real"

CO von Krieg says:
SO: Could we be trapped in the 2.78 seconds of missing time from the original probe?

MO Whitecloud says:
::Has the nurses  treating the bruises and sprains and  begins  mending bones::

SO Qwynn says:
All: did that object move us to another parallel time, is that why our mechanics aren't functioning correctly?

OPS Stidd says:
XO: But nothing since then has been as it should.  The replicator is not programmed for Vulcan salutations, yet it gave one.

XO Starks says:
CO: ...or could we still be right there WITH the probe?

SO Qwynn says:
:: takes the tricorder back out and checks her resonance frequency ::

SO Qwynn says:
:: checks the resonance frequency of the XO ::

XO Starks says:
:: looks to the SO with a grin :: SO: do I pass?

MO Whitecloud says:
*TO* Could you have your security staff look for any who could not get to sickbay ?

XO Starks says:
CO: it seems, as always, we have more questions then answers

OPS Stidd says:
All: Everything is a little too perfect for the readings and my own internal tests go.

SO Qwynn says:
:: checks the frequency of an inanimate object on the bridge :: All: the same, nothin!

SO Qwynn says:
XO: You pass :: smiles ::

SO Qwynn says:
:: goes mentally back to the drawing board ::

XO Starks says:
SO: thanks ::moves to ENG station::

XO Starks says:
:: goes over list from sickbay ::

CO von Krieg says:
All: None of our systems should be at 100 percent. No starship can function at peak efficiency. It is impossible.

XO Starks says:
CO: shall we hail a science vessel, or anyone for that fact?

TO Williams says:
*Security Crew*: Please detach squads of 2 each, to pick up wounded who could not make it to the sick bay.

Host John A says:
ACTION: Two messages are received from nearby Starfleet outposts...

OPS Stidd says:
::begins meditation to see if I can clear my mind of all around me::

SO Qwynn says:
All: so are we really here?

CO von Krieg says:
XO: Initiate that, commander.

OPS Stidd says:
::Opens messages from the outposts::

CO von Krieg says:
OPS: Main viewer, Mr. Stidd.

OPS Stidd says:
CO: Aye sir.

XO Starks says:
:: looks to main screen ::

TO Williams says:
<Security Crew Officer>:*TO*: Aye, sir. Right on it.

MO Whitecloud says:
::wonders if the replicator is "safe" yet  ::

CO von Krieg says:
FCO: Are we near port yet?

Host John A says:
ACTION: The first message plays:  All Federation Ships: This is the Jocfal Supply outpost! we are under attack by Cardassian ground troops! can anyone assist! Please! send help!

XO Starks says:
ALL: Cardasian ground troops..?!

CO von Krieg says:
::frowns::

SO Qwynn says:
:: at SCI :: Computer: display instances of parallel universe incidents of Federation ships

FCO Horn says:
CO: Want me to change course?

TO Williams says:
::Grins... this means combat...::

CO von Krieg says:
FCO: Steady as she goes.

SO Qwynn says:
:: reviews the information ::

OPS Stidd says:
ALL: Illogical

FCO Horn says:
CO: Yes sir

TO Williams says:
::Then sobers up, for the poor people under attack::

Host John A says:
ACTION: The second Message plays voice only and broken: This is Adm... ust. Outpo...38 is under attack! The Cardassians  are mo... ..gainst us! All ships....

XO Starks says:
ALL: Admiral K'rust!

CO von Krieg says:
OPS: Mr Stidd, can you cause a malfunction in the replicator system to disrupt your "perfect" readings.

OPS Stidd says:
::Replays last message::

MO Whitecloud says:
::finishes the last of the crew and waits to see if any others are brought in ::

XO Starks says:
CO: this is impossible! the Cardasians can't mount any kind of attack in their current state

CO von Krieg says:
CTO: Can you scan that area to confirm the messages?

Host John A says:
ACTION: The message plays again and it's meaning is clear...

OPS Stidd says:
CO: I can attempt to do so. and will do so sir.

MO Whitecloud says:
*XO*  We have finish processing those who arrived already and are awaiting a search by security , in case some could not make it here

XO Starks says:
*MO* acknowledged

OPS Stidd says:
::begins a cascade power failure in the replicator and watches for another alarm::

SO Qwynn says:
:: observes what OPS is doing ::

SO Qwynn says:
:: monitors it's affect ::

MO Whitecloud says:
::glances at the indicator lights on the replicator as the power goes out :: Bah !! Gremlins !

TO Williams says:
OPS: Can you figure out what date it is? Something sound messed-up.

XO Starks says:
CO: what will it be sir the ground troops or the attack on 1138?

XO Starks says:
CO: I hate to say it's real, but LRS says it is, we can't ignore it

CO von Krieg says:
FCO: Prepare to engage to Tenarus Alpha.

OPS Stidd says:
TO: I can attempt to access one of the SF bouys

CO von Krieg says:
FCO: Maximum warp.

FCO Horn says:
CO: Yes sir ::Punches buttons and prepares to engage at max warp::

FCO Horn says:
::Engages::

XO Starks says:
Self: 5 Galor class ships against 1 Galaxy class and the small orbital station....

MO Whitecloud says:
<Security Chief> *TO* All teams report all decks clear

CO von Krieg says:
::looks at the TO: Mr. Williams, it appears as if you will receive some targets that will shoot back.

CO von Krieg says:
CTO: Station. Bring us to Red Alert.

XO Starks says:
ALL: Red Alert, all hand to battle stations

TO Williams says:
::Grins at the CO:: CO: They won't shoot back very long... ::grins::

CTO Riker says:
CO: aye sir 

SO Qwynn says:
FCO: no power failure, just a fluctuation, Sir

TO Williams says:
*Security chief* : Your dismissed, return to your post.

CTO Riker says:

XO Starks says:
OPS: can you prove that Lt.?

TO Williams says:
OPS: Have you figured out the date yet?

CO von Krieg says:
FCO: Move us into torpedo range. CTO/TO fire only on my command.

Host John A says:
ACTION: A squadron of Defiant class ships are read on LRS closing on the Battle...

FCO Horn says:
::Brings ship in and reduces to attack speed::

MO Whitecloud says:
::sighs and wishes he could get more supplies from the replicator ::

OPS Stidd says:
CO: The replicator should have been fried when I subjected them to a cascade power failure, but they are not.  In fact, they are at 100% efficiency.

CO von Krieg says:
OPS: Explain, Mr. Stidd...

TO Williams says:
CTO: Wanna do this one?  Or do you wanna work together?  Or give the controls to me? ::Grins after the last sentence::

XO Starks says:
CO: sir, looks at the LRS their aren't that many Defiant class ships in the entire sector

CO von Krieg says:
::shoots the TO a glance::

OPS Stidd says:
CO: Somehow, we are being fed information that is not real.

TO Williams says:
::Grins wryly, then notices the captain glaring at him...::

SO Qwynn says:
:: checks the replicator systems with her tricorder ::

CO von Krieg says:
SO: Mr. Qwynn, can you confirm OPS's assertion?

SO Qwynn says:
CO: Sir, I cannot.  The system started to fail, then corrected itself.  It is working fine

OPS Stidd says:
::Begins scans for any signs of psionic attacks or interference::

Host John A says:
ACTION: the 3 ships on LRS join in formation with the McKinley and destroy the first Cardassian ship
