Mission Summary: 
Host Loren says:
The crew waited at the border into Breen space as the Breen headed toward them at high warp. The ship stopped and appeared to be watching the Pharaoh. Meanwhile, displays on board the Pharaoh would shut down for no reason. When it would reactivate it would display in Nacandarian.  All attempts to regain control of the main computer have failed
Host Loren says:
Although some insight into what was going on presented itself to the crew on the view screen on the bridge, in the form of a face, a female identifying herself as Tonja. The crew believe it to be a representation of the Nacandarian ship's computer
Host Loren says:
This speculation is sound, since she claims responsibility for destroying the Breen ship, and has now started the Pharaoh on course for Pi Stanilus, at warp 9.1.  She has also started systematically shutting down life support to various areas of the ship, sick bay, engineering, and crew quarters so far… 
Host Loren says:
Chaos is coming, and will take the first one who screams…
Host Loren says:
Lets us resume - In Space, Nobody Can Hear You Scream.  Part 5

Host CO_Trelan says:
:: standing in the center of the bridge ::
Host CO_Trelan says:
XO: I see no other choice, Doane....
CSO_Cmdr_Stidd says:
::Enters the bridge and moves silently to sciences station::
Host CO_Trelan says:
:: hears the door, turning ::
XO_McGrady says:
::breathes in, thinking about this grave decision::
Host CO_Trelan says:
CSO: Commander Stidd, glad to see you could join us. :: gazes pointedly at him ::
XO_McGrady says:
::looks up as Stidd approaches::
CSO_Cmdr_Stidd says:
CO: Er ... ah... yes sir.
XO_McGrady says:
::whispers:: CO: Captain, one word of caution.
Host Tonja says:
ACTION:  Lights and life support go down on deck 4.  Power is routed to warp drive.
Host CO_Trelan says:
:: faces Doane ::
CSO_Cmdr_Stidd says:
CO: Power is gone from deck 4's life support and lights.  Everything is being dumped into warp drive
XO_McGrady says:
CO: If we shut down the computer, and this Tonja maintains control of the ship, we could be sealing our own tomb.  No garuntee that life support would come back online.  We must try and prepare the escape pods...if we have time.
Host CO_Trelan says:
CSO: Evacuate that deck.
Host CO_Trelan says:
XO: Understood. Get an Engineering team on that now.
Host Tonja says:
ACTION:  Tonja's face reappears on the bridge main viewer, she appears to look over the bridge crew
CSO_Cmdr_Stidd says:
CO: Already in progress as is deck 3 as a precaution.  That will leave just deck 1, sir.
Host CO_Trelan says:
XO: Inform them they have five minutes.
Host CO_Trelan says:
:: places his hands behind his back, staring intently at the figure in front of him ::
XO_McGrady says:
*ALL HANDS* Attention all non-essential and non-active personnel.  Execute Escape Plan Alpha.  Muster at your assigned pods and be prepared to evacuate.
XO_McGrady says:
*ALL HANDS*  You have FIVE minutes.  This is not a drill.
Host CO_Trelan says:
Tonja: I have come to a conclusion. You must be an artificial intelligence of the Nacadarian ship.
XO_McGrady says:
::sounds evacuation klaxons::
Host Tonja says:
ACTION:  Crewmembers, as ordered assume their muster points, and stand by.
Host Tonja says:
ACTION:  Ship begins to shutter a little.
Host Tonja says:
<EO_Germlin>  ::on bridge at ENG station, turns to CO/XO::  CO/XO:  Sirs!  We just increased to warp 9.5.
Host CO_Trelan says:
EO: Attempt to strengthen structural integrity. I don't want her shaking us apart.
Host Tonja says:
<EO_Germlin>  ::works controls::  CO:  Trying sir.  But power is being diverted from every system on the ship, including structural integrity!
Host CO_Trelan says:
XO: We have no more time...
XO_McGrady says:
::nods::
XO_McGrady says:
CO:  Would you like to start the sequence?
Host CO_Trelan says:
Computer: Initiate emergency computer core shutdown. Authorization Trelan Five One Zero Omega. Initiate.
XO_McGrady says:
Computer:  Verification Delta Omega Omega Alhpa Omicron Theta.  Initiate core computer shutdown.
Host Tonja says:
ACTION:  The computer doesn't respond.
XO_McGrady says:
CO: I Had the feeling...
Host Tonja says:
CO:  I'm sorry, that, I can not allow
Host Tonja says:
<EO_Germlin>  ::checks a warning light::
Host CO_Trelan says:
Tonja: You are killing my crew.
Host Tonja says:
ACTION:  life support is shut down on deck three, and the power is diverted.
XO_McGrady says:
Tonja:  Tonja, will you listen to a proposition?
Host Tonja says:
CO:  Death?  What is death?
Host Tonja says:
XO:  Proposition?
Host CO_Trelan says:
:: grumbles :: Allow a core shutdown and you will see...
Host Tonja says:
<EO_Germlin>  CO/XO:  Deck three has gone down, life support and lights.
Host CO_Trelan says:
:: looks to the XO ::
XO_McGrady says:
Tonja:  We can give you another vessel that can take you to your home at equal speed to this one, with the added benefit of not terminating our lifeforms.
XO_McGrady says:
Tonja:  A shuttlecraft.  Tonja.
Host CO_Trelan says:
:: smiles as he realizes what the XO is proposing ::
Host Tonja says:
CO:  I can explore that without allowing this core to be shut down.
Host Tonja says:
XO:  This vessel suits my need.  I will get to Pi Stanilus
Host CO_Trelan says:
Tonja: :: raising his voice :: Death is termination of life. Like the tactical officer you killed. He no longer walks, talks, or thinks.
Host Tonja says:
<EO_Germlin>  CO/XO:  warp 9.8...  9.85!
CSO_Cmdr_Stidd says:
CO: Sciences just went off line.  My guess is that it is routed to the warp core.
Host CO_Trelan says:
:: turns to the CSO :: CSO: Can we dump the warp core?
Host Tonja says:
CO:  he attempted to injure me,
Host CO_Trelan says:
CSO: Manually?
Host Tonja says:
CO:  Are you attempting to injure me?
XO_McGrady says:
Tonja: Think of it a s lightening your load.
Host CO_Trelan says:
Tonja: And you are injuring us....:: holds his hands out :: But we can stop injuring each other...
Host CO_Trelan says:
Tonja: If you drop us to impulse speed, we can get you home...without loss of life.
XO_McGrady says:
::pulls up specs of the warp core from his tricorder reocrds::
CSO_Cmdr_Stidd says:
CO: Maybe but it would need a evac suit as there is no life support on 3 or 4
Host Tonja says:
<EO_Germlin>  CO/XO:  warp 9.9!  Getting flucuations in the nacelles, attempting to compensate.
XO_McGrady says:
CO: Captain.  I recommend we evacuate non-essential, and non-duty standing personnel.
Host CO_Trelan says:
Tonja: Hear my junior officer? We are not hurting you. You are hurting yourself.
Host CO_Trelan says:
Tonja: If you do not slow our speed, you will destroy this ship...and your program with it.
Host Tonja says:
CO:  You are carbon, carbon is irrelavant.
Host CO_Trelan says:
:: nods to the XO ::
Host Tonja says:
CO:  This vessel is well constructed...  I have the ability to augment its propulsion.
XO_McGrady says:
*ALL HANDS*  Attention all non-essential and non-duty-standing perosnel. Execute Escape Plan Alpha..  Abandon ship.  This is not a drill.
Host CO_Trelan says:
Tonja: Carbon is what created you.
CSO_Cmdr_Stidd says:
:: Begins to put on an evac suit::
Host CO_Trelan says:
Tonja: Do you know how long you were on that planet?
Host Tonja says:
ACTION:  Power to life pod ejection systems go offline
Host CO_Trelan says:
Tonja: Do you have a method of linear time?
Host Tonja says:
CO:  I comprehend linear temporal movment
XO_McGrady says:
::hears the reports coming in::
Host CO_Trelan says:
Tonja: Good. Then tell me...how long were you on that planet when we found you?
CSO_Cmdr_Stidd says:
XO: Any reccomendations before I go and attempt this with the warp core?
XO_McGrady says:
*ALL HANDS*  Attention all non-essential and non-duty-standing perosnel.  Execute Execute Escape Plan Beta.   Manual escape pod evacuation!
Host CO_Trelan says:
CSO: :: whispers :: Stand by...
Host Tonja says:
CO:  Error, I have no valadation ...
Host Tonja says:
ACTION:  Alarms sound on the bridge.
CSO_Cmdr_Stidd says:
:: Finishes putting on the suit::
Host CO_Trelan says:
Tonja: Error? But isn't that a flaw?
Host Tonja says:
EO_Gremlin:  CO/XO:  Sirs, we just passed warp 9.987.
Host CO_Trelan says:
Tonja: I thought artificial intelligence was perfect?
Host Tonja says:
CO:  No...  I have no indication of time passing.  There was a landing...  Then I was pulled into this vessel's construct.
Host Tonja says:
ACTION:  The ship's vibrations continue to increase.
Host CO_Trelan says:
Tonja: And you have access to my ship's computer systems. So look...
Host CO_Trelan says:
Tonja: You were there 200 years, Tonja.
Host CO_Trelan says:
Tonja: You know of a race called the V'Rax?
Host Tonja says:
CO:  I am...  We are...  Your comp...  200 years?  Error...
Host Tonja says:
CO:  V'Rax...  
Host CO_Trelan says:
Tonja: They rule your space, now. That is another flaw in your programmoing....
Host Tonja says:
EO_Gremlin:  CO/XO:  Structural integrity is starting to falter!  
Host CO_Trelan says:
Tonja: Your home does not exsist. Not there. Not anymore.
Host CO_Trelan says:
Tonja: Release my ship. I will take you to your new home. The home of your people.
Host CO_Trelan says:
Tonja: I am the only one that knows where it is.
Host Tonja says:
CO:  Error...  Error...  Library Computer Access and Retrieval System is ready to recieve programming...  No...  We must reach Pi Stanilus
Host CO_Trelan says:
Tonja: But you don't want Pi Stanilus, remember? It is merely a gateway...a gateway to a world you do not know.
Host Tonja says:
CO:  It is the gateway...  
Host CO_Trelan says:
:: looks to his XO :: XO: But, Number One, if she doesn't know...then that is an apparent flaw as well, correct?
Host Tonja says:
XO:  Commander McGrady, you have a priority sub-space communique from Starfleet Command
XO_McGrady says:
CO: Yes...indeed a flaw, sir.
Host CO_Trelan says:
:: raises an eyebrow at his XO ::
Host Tonja says:
ACTION:  A monitor close to the XO activates, displaying the starfleet logo::
XO_McGrady says:
::watches the monitor::
Host CO_Trelan says:
:: looks over, standing near his first officer ::
Host Tonja says:
ACTION:  The monitor begins to display a text message
Host Tonja says:
ACTION:  The message reads...  Captain Trelan is to be relieved of duty immediately.  Place him under arrest and escort him to the brig
XO_McGrady says:
::looks up:: Tonja:  How do I know this isn't one of your tricks!
Host Tonja says:
<EO_Gremlin> :: Looks at the CO, then the XO::
Host CO_Trelan says:
XO: Does it give a reason?
Host Tonja says:
::sounding like usual LCARS voice::  XO:  This is a priority communique, access codes are varafied
XO_McGrady says:
::hits a key on the console::
Host Tonja says:
ACTION:  console beeps, then displays the message again.
Host CO_Trelan says:
:: looks back to the main viewer ::
XO_McGrady says:
::looks at the CO a while, then back at Tonja on the main screen:::  I cannot trust anything these computers say under your control.  I have seen no evidence in the Captain's behavior worthy of arrest.  I will not execute this order, as I cannot verify its authenticity.
Host CO_Trelan says:
Tonja: You don't want to admit you have a flaw...that you errored...
Host Tonja says:
CO:  I am incapable of error, this vessel's core is conflicting
Host CO_Trelan says:
So, you have carbon characteristics. You are irrelivant.
Host Tonja says:
ACTION:  A bolt of electricity shoots from the console hitting the XO
XO_McGrady says:
::falls back four feet, stunned::
Host CO_Trelan says:
XO: Doane!
XO_McGrady says:
::convusles a few times, then starts breathing as deep as he can::
CSO_Cmdr_Stidd says:
::Moves over to the XO and begins to examine him::
Host CO_Trelan says:
Tonja: You errored. You are carbon based. You are irrelivant.
Host Tonja says:
ACTION:  XO is stunned but is quick to recover
XO_McGrady says:
::gets up::
Host Tonja says:
CO:  I am carbon?...  
XO_McGrady says:
::wipes a bit of blood from his nose::
Host Tonja says:
<EO_Gremlin>  CO:  Sir.  Warp fields are starting to degrade fast!  Looks like the nacelles are overloading!
Host CO_Trelan says:
Tonja: Yes...you are carbon. You have bioneural circuitry.
Host CO_Trelan says:
Tonja: You are irrelivant. Shut down immediately to isolate infection.
Host Tonja says:
CO:  Verifying...  Verifying....
Host CO_Trelan says:
Tonja: Isolate the infection, or you will cease to function. You will not make it home. Emergency shutdown is required to save your program. :: moves toward the viewscreen ::
Host Tonja says:
::speaking as ship's computer::  CO:  Attempt...  Attempting isolation sub-routine
Host CO_Trelan says:
:: stops two feet from the viewer :: Tonja: Isolate. Only way to isolate the infection is to shutdown all systems.
Host Tonja says:
CO:  Error.  Must reconfig................ure....................
Host Tonja says:
ACTION:  Life support shuts down on deck one.  Alert sounds.
XO_McGrady says:
EO: Perhaps its a good day to die.
Host Tonja says:
ACTION:  Warp core shuts down, the Pharaoh rapidly and very roughly drops back down in sub-light.
XO_McGrady says:
::falls back again::
Host CO_Trelan says:
Tonja: Reconfigure is not a basis for isolation. You will cease to function. You will die.
Host CO_Trelan says:
:: staggers, but catches himself on the bulkhead ::
CSO_Cmdr_Stidd says:
:: Tests the science station for activity::
Host CO_Trelan says:
Tonja: You have failed. You have errored. You are carbon...and are, thus, irrelavant.
Host Tonja says:
ACTION: Tonja doesn't respond.
Host CO_Trelan says:
:: falls to his knees, the air growing thin ::
Host CO_Trelan says:
EO: Restart...all...systems....
CSO_Cmdr_Stidd says:
:: Attempts to bring backup life support back on line from theSciece station::
Host Tonja says:
ACTION:  The Pharaoh is completely out of power, with only emergency lights, the icy coldness of space will soon incroach into the Pharaoh
Host Tonja says:
