Host CO_Sacul says:
Summary:  The Pharaoh is limping back to the nearest Federation outpost/starbase.  The crew is trying to effect repairs and they have reports to make.

Host CO_Sacul says:
:: sitting on the bridge in her chair ::

XO_Revell-Francis says:
:: Stands up from his chair and paces to the after part of the bridge and back ::

FCO_Khrex says:
:: sitting at the helm::

OPS_Clemons says:
:: wrapping up a compilation of communications with the Kzinti for further inspection::

Host CO_Sacul says:
XO:  How are our repairs coming?

EO_Lt_B`Renak says:
:: is scrambling to maintain the power flow regulators trying to get the impulse more power::

XO_Revell-Francis says:
:: Turns to face the CO :: CO: We're making headway on the engines, but most primary systems are still at best at 60%.

Host CO_Sacul says:
:: nods :: XO:  I hate waiting.

Host CO_Sacul says:
:: stands up and paces ::

XO_Revell-Francis says:
:: Turns back, takes his seat and brings up a set of new progress reports ::

FCO_Khrex says:
:: presses a few buttons on his console and adjusts their course::

Host CO_Sacul says:
:: turns towards her ready room ::  XO:  You have the bridge Number One.

XO_Revell-Francis says:
:: Stands up again :: CO: Aye, Captain.

Host CO_Sacul says:
:: enters her ready room ::

EO_Lt_B`Renak says:
*XO*: Sir I am trying to get the impulse to go at a faster rate of flow but it is almost impossible and the warp is shot to hell.

XO_Revell-Francis says:
:: Walks up to the Big Chair and sits down in it ::

FCO_Khrex says:
:: wonders if HK is going to follow the Captain into her Ready Room soon::

XO_Revell-Francis says:
*EO*: What's your best estimate?

FCO_Khrex says:
ALL: Shot to hell?

EO_Lt_B`Renak says:
*XO*: About 2 hours sir.

Host CO_Sacul says:
ACTION:  Science One explodes.

OPS_Clemons says:
:: jumps slightly:: ALL: That was unexpected.

FCO_Khrex says:
:: turns back and ducks::

EO_Lt_B`Renak says:
:: bangs head on console:

FCO_Khrex says:
ALL: That was a hot one... and me without my marshmallows...

Host CO_Sacul says:
:: rushes back out onto the bridge :: XO:  What the.........

XO_Revell-Francis says:
:: Turns away from the bright flash :: *EO*: Do the best you can.

XO_Revell-Francis says:
:: Stands up again. Apologetically: :: CO: They're having some power flow issues in Engineering.

EO_Lt_B`Renak says:
*XO*: Understood XO.

FCO_Khrex says:
XO: Issues? I hate to find out what problems are like...

Host CO_Sacul says:
<Computer>  R...r..rrrred alert.....rrr..rr..rrred a..aall...alert

FCO_Khrex says:
ALL: Is it just me? Or is the computer drunk?

Host CO_Sacul says:
:: looks up :: All:  Now what?

EO_Lt_B`Renak says:
:: bangs head again::

EO_Lt_B`Renak says:
All: Augusfratt what is it now?????

EO_Lt_B`Renak says:
:: hears the klaxon::  All: Someone lower that blasted thing.

XO_Revell-Francis says:
:: Gives Khrex a look :: CO: I'm really starting to notice the major idiosyncrasies this ship seems to have.

Host CO_Sacul says:
All:  Someone turn that thing off!

OPS_Clemons says:
:: chuckles lightly::

Host CO_Sacul says:
:: goes and sits down in her chair and it squeaks ::

Host CO_Sacul says:
XO:  You have no idea.

FCO_Khrex says:
XO: At least a gigantic vole isn't biting you on the shoulder... Not a pleasant experience, let me tell you...

XO_Revell-Francis says:
FCO: Do I want to ask?

Host CO_Sacul says:
XO:  No, you really don't.  Ask him about being eaten alive by something with big teeth and claws.

XO_Revell-Francis says:
CO: Hmm, if it's all the same, I think I'll pass on that one too.

Host CO_Sacul says:
ACTION:  The OPS console starts beeping and lights go off and on.

OPS_Clemons says:
Self: Hmm.. better move in case it explodes.  :: stands up and goes off to the side, fully expecting his console to explode::

EO_Lt_B`Renak says:
*XO*: It seems like everything is being played with like we got a virus in the main computer core or something similar.

XO_Revell-Francis says:
*EO*: I suppose that's not out of the question.  Have somebody check it out.

Host CO_Sacul says:
OPS:  Is there something wrong with your seat?

OPS_Clemons says:
CO: Not presently, but I don't want to be there when it blows up.

FCO_Khrex says:
OPS: If you do that, it'll blow up from above you...

OPS_Clemons says:
FCO: Come again?

Host CO_Sacul says:
CO:  Then find another console to work from.

Host CO_Sacul says:
ACTION:  The OPS console goes back to normal.

FCO_Khrex says:
OPS: Attempting to avoid your console from blowing up in your face? You move, and it blows up from a bulkhead above you...

OPS_Clemons says:
CO: Yes sir.  Self: Ahh, what do ya know?  :: returns to his seat::

Host CO_Sacul says:
XO:  Any ideas on what could be going on here?

Host CO_Sacul says:
ACTION:  The Ship drops from impulse and is drifting.

XO_Revell-Francis says:
CO: Engineering thinks it's a computer glitch, and lacking any evidence to the contrary, I'm inclined to agree.

Host CO_Sacul says:
:: nods :: CO:  Well, let’s hope we can get it figured out and soon.

EO_Lt_B`Renak says:
*XO*: Ah sir there is in fact a computer virus but I am having problems in tracking it down.

Host CO_Sacul says:
FCO:  Is there a reason we aren't moving Mister Khrex?

OPS_Clemons says:
Self: Well, might as well sit back and relax, we aren’t going anywhere fast.  :: swivels his chair and crosses one leg onto the other placing his hands behind his head::

FCO_Khrex says:
CO: Yes, Captain. There is.

FCO_Khrex says:
CO: I'm just not sure why though.

Host CO_Sacul says:
FCO:  And????  That would be?

XO_Revell-Francis says:
*EO*: I see.  Do you need any help from the bridge?

EO_Lt_B`Renak says:
*XO*: Sir is there a possibility that what ever made this ship completely locked down might be the cause of this mess?????  It is not unheard of.

FCO_Khrex says:
CO: Impulse engines have tapped out, Captain. It appears they give in to submission.

Host CO_Sacul says:
:: shakes her head :: FCO:  Perhaps you should get out and push Moyoom.

EO_Lt_B`Renak says:
Self: Augusfratt the impulse just gave out.

XO_Revell-Francis says:
*EO*: The energy discharge was highly unstable. I suppose it could've gotten into our systems too.

FCO_Khrex says:
CO: I could do that, but I'm afraid I would only end up pushing myself away from the ship, Captain.

EO_Lt_B`Renak says:
*XO*: Well sir it that is the case, I am going to have my hands full just looking for it.

Host CO_Sacul says:
FCO:  Never mind Commander.  :: chuckles ::

Host CO_Sacul says:
ACTION:  Impulse re-engages.

FCO_Khrex says:
CO: You know on account of the ship being heavier than I am... I mean, even though I had that triple breakfast burrito with all the fixings...

EO_Lt_B`Renak says:
*XO*: Sir I have just put another team on the impulse engine problem but the best I can do is give you the thrusters till ....hold on the impulse just re-engaged.  Sir please don’t push them to hard. Please.

FCO_Khrex says:
CO: Would you look at that? The impulse engines were playing possum...

XO_Revell-Francis says:
*EO*:  All right, we'll take it easy.  If you need any assistance from up here, feel free to ask.

EO_Lt_B`Renak says:
*XO*: If we push em any more they will go permanently and only a complete overhaul at a dry dock will fix them.

EO_Lt_B`Renak says:
Self: This is crazy.  Something here is weird and I bet it has to do with something electronic which still escapes me.

XO_Revell-Francis says:
*EO*: What's the maximum safest speed, Lieutenant?

EO_Lt_B`Renak says:
*XO*: I recommend not to go past half impulse till I track this down.

Host CO_Sacul says:
:: pinches the bridge of her nose with her fingers :: XO:  You ever just have one of those days?

XO_Revell-Francis says:
*EO*: Very well, I'll relay it to flight control.

XO_Revell-Francis says:
CO:  We seem to be having them increasingly often.

XO_Revell-Francis says:
CO: Quite fittingly, Engineering reports that half impulse is the best we can do in order to avoid a total impulse reactor failure.

FCO_Khrex says:
CO/XO: Huh... that's bad news... like the time the doctors told me that I should stop competing in those hamburger eating contests... not a good day...

Host CO_Sacul says:
ACTION:  The life support system begins to malfunction.  High pressure, warm air comes from the port side of the bridge, low pressure, cool air comes from the starboards side of the bridge, the two collide and it begins to rain on the bridge.

FCO_Khrex says:
:: looks around confused::

FCO_Khrex says:
ALL: But I already showered last week!

XO_Revell-Francis says:
:: Feels the water drop onto his forehead :: Self: Well this is just great.

Host CO_Sacul says:
XO:  Great, what else could possible go wrong.  :: feels the first drops. :: Remind me never to ask that again.

EO_Lt_B`Renak says:
:: is in the Jefferies tube still looking at the electrical systems::

FCO_Khrex says:
ALL: I know to never trust the weather forecast... I should have brought my umbrella...

EO_Lt_B`Renak says:
:: she gets a com from her Senior engineer about the environmental problems::

Host CO_Sacul says:
ACTION:  The rain stops and life support goes back to normal.

XO_Revell-Francis says:
:: Notes the welcome change, although everything is now soaking wet ::

EO_Lt_B`Renak says:
*XO*: Ok this is too much of a coincidence sir.

FCO_Khrex says:
:: stomps on a puddle under his console and makes it splash::

XO_Revell-Francis says:
*EO*: Oh, I've seen this ship do similar things before...

EO_Lt_B`Renak says:
*XO*: Yeah but this time there is a reason and it seems electrical.

XO_Revell-Francis says:
*EO*: I'm sure your team is more than capable of handling it, Lieutenant.

EO_Lt_B`Renak says:
*XO*: Sir I hope so.

EO_Lt_B`Renak says:
:: continues her search for the reason::

Host CO_Sacul says:
ACTION:  An electrical surge discharges from the Pharaoh into space.

OPS_Clemons says:
*EO* Have you encountered any problems with communications?

EO_Lt_B`Renak says:
*OPS*: Communications are fine.

OPS_Clemons says:
*EO* Ok, thanks. CO: Sir, permission to send a message to the nearest starbase requesting permission to send a tug to pull us to the starbase?

Host CO_Sacul says:
:: looks up :: OPS:  Make it so.

OPS_Clemons says:
CO: Aye, sends out a message requesting a tug::

XO_Revell-Francis says:
:: Notes the sensor output and wonders about this electrical discharge ::

EO_Lt_B`Renak says:
*XO* Warp is online.
