Mission Summary....
Host CTO_Zahara says:
The USS Pharaoh has trailed the Kzinti to a system in uncharted space, thanks to a little help from the two prisoners in the Pharaoh's brig.....
Host CTO_Zahara says:
As the Pharaoh entered the system, once more the Greek symbol that they have come accustomed to relating to their ships has again shown up on the screens....
Host CTO_Zahara says:

<<<<<<<<<<<<<Begin Mission>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Host CTO_Zahara says:
:: standing at Tactical, his console still not responding :: CO: Captain, all controls have been locked out!
FCO_Salan says:
::sits at the Flight Control helm awaiting orders::
CNS_Rezoph says:
::stands in the brig looking at the two downed Kzinti, examining the sleek black fur of the male and the spotted coat of the cheetah-like female::
CO_Sacul says:
CTO:  I am aware of that.  :: walks over to her console and releases the other consoles ::
CNS_Rezoph says:
::taps her combadge and speaks a little distractedly::  *CO*: Captain, did you need me on the bridge?
CO_Sacul says:
*CNS*  Your insight would be helpful.
CO_Sacul says:
All:  Your consoles are now clear.
CNS_Rezoph says:
Computer:  Computer, keep a medical eye on these two prisoners and alert me when they awake or their vital signs deteriorate.  ::heads out to leave the brig::  *CO*:  Yes, ma'am, I'll be right up.
FCO_Salan says:
::sighs in relief::
CO_Sacul says:
CTO:  Let's stay at yellow alert for now Mister Zahara.
FCO_Salan says:
CO: Same heading Captain?
Host CTO_Zahara says:
:: punches in a command, then narrows his eyes :: CO: Sir, 900,000 kilometers and closing. We won't be within weapons range for some time. But given our last run in, I'd recommend just staying out of the way.
CNS_Rezoph says:
::arrives on the bridge:: CO:  Captain, reporting in!
Host CTO_Zahara says:
CO: Aye, sir...
CNS_Rezoph says:
::takes a look at the viewscreen, and 'reaches' for the inhabitants of the other ship::
CEO_Ens_Running_Horse says:
::in engineering watching the power grids and the sensor girds for any power spikes::
CO_Sacul says:
CTO:  According to the report I have from Commander Stidd, we have to be within 80,000 klicks.
CO_Sacul says:
CNS:  Thank you Counselor.
CO_Sacul says:
CNS:  Have a seat please.
Host CTO_Zahara says:
CO: There's only one way to do that and stay in one piece, Captain.....
CO_Sacul says:
FCO:  For now, yes.
FCO_Salan says:
::continues on with the current heading::
CNS_Rezoph says:
::moves over to her seat and sits down after 'finding' the aliens are too 'far out' for ability to 'touch' them::
CO_Sacul says:
CTO:  And what would that be?
FCO_Salan says:
::listens to the chatter behind him and thinks to himself, "These pink skins should just use the airlock to get them to talk."::
Host CTO_Zahara says:
:: his fingers danced across his console :: CO: Transporter range is 100,000 kilometers. As far as we can tell, that's still enough out of range that their weapons aren't as effective against our shields.
CNS_Rezoph says:
::brings up the latest readings, then turns to listen to the tactical officer's answer::
CO_Sacul says:
:: nods :: CTO:  Make it so.
CO_Sacul says:
FCO:  Once we are in transporter range, all stop.
FCO_Salan says:
CO: You got it Captain.
Host CTO_Zahara says:
<SO_T'Vek> :: sitting at the Science console :: CO: Sir, if I may interject. The orb itself is too small that the reaction will not commence through the hulls of the two ships.
CEO_Ens_Running_Horse says:
::now sees a power spike and adjusts it::
CO_Sacul says:
:: nods :: SO:  What is your suggestion Lt?
Host CTO_Zahara says:
<SO T'Vek> CO: Under normal circumstances, I would recommend Commander Stidd for this mission. However, since he is not available, another with an equal level of scientific experience be chosen to go aboard the Kzinti vessel with the orb.
CO_Sacul says:
SO:  And who would you recommend?
CEO_Ens_Running_Horse says:
*CO*: Ma'am, there was a slight power spike but I have corrected it.
CNS_Rezoph says:
::sits listening quietly as she skims over the reports::
Host CTO_Zahara says:
<SO T'Vek> :: raises a single brow :: CO: I do not have the experience in such matters to go, myself. However, it should be someone with a possible advantage. :: looks around the bridge ::
CO_Sacul says:
*CEO*  Thank you Mister Running Horse.
CEO_Ens_Running_Horse says:
*CO*: Just doing my job sir.
CEO_Ens_Running_Horse says:
::continues to monitor her boards::
CO_Sacul says:
:: sighs :: SO:  I'll have to go myself.
Host CTO_Zahara says:
CO: An empath... the ability to know when someone is nearing their position. :: eyes falling on the Counselor ::
CO_Sacul says:
CTO:  Perhaps your right.
Host CTO_Zahara says:
<edit CTO to SO>
Host CTO_Zahara says:
CO: If she goes, I want security with her. :: stands defiantly ::
CO_Sacul says:
CTO:  Agreed.  Arrange it.
Host CTO_Zahara says:
<SO T'Vek> CTO: I do not recommend that, Lieutenant.
FCO_Salan says:
CO: ETA to transporter range is about 15 minutes Captain.
CO_Sacul says:
CNS:  Counselor, I have a job for you.
CNS_Rezoph says:
::raises her head and looks surprised at the tactical officer::  CTO:  I think that would be a very good precaution...
Host CTO_Zahara says:
:: eyes the Vulcan :: SO: And your reasoning for this?
CO_Sacul says:
FCO:  Thank you Mister Salan.
CO_Sacul says:
:: turns to look at the SO ::  SO:  Yes, why is that?
CNS_Rezoph says:
::feels very tentative about this, but rises and nods to the Captain::  CO:  Yes, ma'am...so I heard.  ::looks at Zahara, wanting to thank him oh so much::
FCO_Salan says:
Self: A Vulcan being illogical, that is new.
Host CTO_Zahara says:
<SO T'Vek> CO/CTO: She will be there on a reconnaissance mission to attempt to neutralize the unknown particle. It would be an added element to an already delicate situation. One that could endanger the very mission.
CNS_Rezoph says:
::looks at the Vulcan wondering if he hasn't been meditating lately::  Self:  Now wait a minute...
Host CTO_Zahara says:
<SO T'Vek> CO/CTO: Space would be limited for movement and concealment.
FCO_Salan says:
CO: If something were to happen to you wouldn't Commander Stidd take over, and in turn, T'Vek become CSO?
CO_Sacul says:
FCO:  Perhaps.
FCO_Salan says:
CO: I would consider that before making a decision.
Host CTO_Zahara says:
<SO T'Vek> CO: However, an engineer would not be out of the question, since it does involve their propulsion system.
CNS_Rezoph says:
SO:  And do you have any objections to at least carrying a weapon?  ::listens to the arguments on what they will be doing with her person wondering if she'll have any input::
Host CTO_Zahara says:
<SO T'Vek> CNS: To not do so would be foolhardy, in any hostile situation.
CNS_Rezoph says:
SO: Thank you.
