<CSO_Hall says:> 
:: leaves for the Star Base::

<CEO Von Krieg says:>
 ::tosses down manifest:: *CTO* Got it. We had a failure in the weapons grid. That's what 
dropped the torpedoes off-line as well.

<XO_Krust says:> 
:: enters bridge ::

<CTO_TERR says:>
 *CEO*: Thanks Magnus, you've got everything done then, finish up down there unless the 
XO has anything for you when he gets back.

CTO: Greetings, Andrew.

<CTO_TERR says:> 
::notes XO walk onto the bridge and quickly loads the CEO's report into his own report and 
walks over to K'rust::

<CTO_TERR says:> 
XO: Greetings Sir, here's the TAC report

<CEO Von Krieg says:> 
*CTO* Acknowledged. We're at a standstill down here until the hull armor arrives.

<CTO_TERR says:>
XO: Are you okay Sir?

<CMO_Lee says:> 
::with med report in hand, he enters the bridge::

<FCO_Braun says:> 
@:: arrives outside airlock ::

<XO_Krust says:>
 CTO: I am adjusting to some changes.  I assume you've delved into my personal issues, 
then?

<CTO_TERR says:>
 XO: I know it isn't my place Sir, but I do keep my ear to the ground concerning the crew and 
any assistance I can render, will be most happily done sir, and I am sorry for your recent loss Sir   ::extends hand::

<FCO_Braun says:> 
@*XO*:  Mr. K'rust?  Permission to come aboard...?

<CSO_Hall says:>
::taps comm. badge ::*SO*: Hall to Fist.

<XO_Krust says:>
 *FCO* Welcome back Jacob, enter at your own risk

<CTO_TERR says:>
 ::grins at XO's remark::

<SO_Fist says:>
 *CSO*: Go ahead, Mr. Hall

<FCO_Braun says:>
 @:: chuckles ::*XO*:  Thank you, sir.

<CMO_Lee says:>
 ::walks over to the XO and CTO:: XO & CTO: Hello, sirs.

<FCO_Braun says:> 
:: boards the Pharaoh ::

<CSO_Hall says:> 
*SO* Are you busy Daven?

<CTO_TERR says:>
 Lee: How are you doc?

<XO_Krust says:>
 :: shakes CTO's hand :: CTO: Thank you, Andrew.  What concerns me most is I don't think my 
child fully comprehends the loss of her mother yet, and I had to leave before I could make the facts clear

<CEO Von Krieg says:> 
::notices an odd reading:: Computer, verify pressure loss in aft torpedo bay.

<SO_Fist says:>
 *CSO*: No sir, I was about to go ashore

<CTO_TERR says:> 
XO: Who have you left Tianna with Sir?

<CMO_Lee says:>
 CTO: Actually pretty well. How about you?

<FCO_Braun says:>
 :: makes way for quarters ::

<En_Devron says:> 
CEO: What are you picking up, Sir?

<CTO_TERR says:>
 CMO: Fine, my head's still sore from that knock during the shuttle incident, but I'm fine

<CSO_Hall says:> 
*SO*I am also. Care to join me?

<XO_Krust says:>
CTO: My mother and sister, they run a night club on Mars Colony.  It's where Lizzy and I grew 
up, when I wasn't with my father on Kronos.

<CEO Von Krieg says:>
 ::turns to Devron:: We've got a 2% loss of standard pressure and atmosphere in the torpedo 
bay.

<CTO_TERR says:> 
XO: Nightclubs, eeessshh   ::cringes:: nice place to be brought up, no offence

<SO_Fist says:>
 *CSO*: Sure would. This is my first time here. Maybe you could show me around.

<FCO_Braun says:>
 :: arrives in cramped quarters ::

<En_Devron says:> 
::faces CEO:: The crew has been working on that since you almost got fried down there...

<FCO_Braun says:>
 :: begins to stow away personal gear ::

<CMO_Lee says:>
 XO: Here's the Medical Report. ::hands XO the report::

<CSO_Hall says:>
 *SO* Sounds like fun. Meet me at the dock to the Star Base. Hall out

<XO_Krust says:>
 CTO: actually, it is.  It's a decent, respectable place.  The bigwigs of Utopia Planetia and 
other upper crust denizens

<CTO_TERR says:> 
XO: You really have to go to her and spend a time with her and tell her about her mother, 
about what a brave and heroic woman she was and about how life can still go on for the rest of you after such a tragic event. The same thing happened to me, although I was sixteen at the time, but I still found it hard without my father to be with

<XO_Krust says:>
 :: takes medical report from CMO :: CMO: thank you, Doctor.

<SO_Fist says:>
 ::arrives in docking bay::

<CTO_TERR says:>
 XO: Oh right, well, if you've been where I have, Nightclub translates into Nausicans wanting 
a fight

<CSO_Hall says:>
 ::arrives late but sees Daven awaiting his arrival::

<CSO_Hall says:>
 SO: Ready Daven?

<XO_Krust says:>
 CTO: We talked at length on the trip, but she's so young.  We spent quality family time 
together mostly.  I see a real bond developing between my family and the child, but if things take a turn for the worst, I think I have some leave coming.

<SO_Fist says:>
 CSO: Ready!

<CSO_Hall says:>
 SO: All right. Let's go.

<CEO Von Krieg says:>
 ::diagnostic finishes. frowns:: Nick: we've got micro-fractures all along the new hull.

<XO_Krust says:>
 CTO: Don't get many Nausicans in the Sol system.

<SO_Fist says:>
 ::turns to the OOD:: PO Kibble: Permission to go ashore?

<CMO_Lee says:>
 ::silently inches away from the CTO and XO toward the TL::

<FCO_Braun says:>
 :: finishes stowing gear away ::

<EO_Devron says:>
 CEO: I'll dispatch two teams  and go down there myself....thought I was gonna go grab a 
Gatorade....guess it'll have to wait...

<XO_Krust says:>
 :: turns to CMO  and smiles ::

<XO_Krust says:>
CMO: not going to join the party, doc?

<XO_Krust says:> 
CMO: Go have some fun, you deserve it.

<EO_Devron says:>
 ::turns to smile at the CEO and exits to the aft torpedo bay::

<CSO_Hall says:>
 @SO: So what do you want to do first?

<CTO_TERR says:>
 XO: Whatever you do Sir, don't take it. You'll go home, spend time and then before you'll 
know it, you've grown too attached to her to leave and you won't give a damn about Pharaoh, the CO, me, or anyone. All that will matter is little Tianna and I know myself, that her mother would not want you to lose out on your career because of Tianna. She's a nice girl I'm sure and maybe we can get her an my David together, he's almost seven

<CMO_Lee says:>
XO: Yes, sir. ::turns and heads for TL::

<FCO_Braun says:>
 :: leaves quarters and heads for the bridge ::

<SO_Fist says:>
 @CSO: Let's play some Dabo!

<CSO_Hall says:>
@SO: Okay. I just hope you are better than I am because I don't know how to play.

<XO_Krust says:>
 :: lifts his head and roars in laughter ::  CTO: If I held such little regard for my career, Lizzy 
and I would have a nice little place on Mars right now  :: thinks to himself  'And Lizzy would still be alive.' ::

<CMO_Lee says:> 
::enters TL::

<EO_Devron says:> 
::works his way to aft torpedo bay:: *Devron to Team 2* : Meet me in the aft torpedo bay

<SO_Fist says:> 
@CSO: You lead. I don't know my way around here.

<EO_Devron says:>
 ::enters torpedo bay, removes tri-corder to scan bulkhead::

<FCO_Braun says:>
 :: arrives at the bridge, heads for the Flight Control station ::

<CSO_Hall says:>
@ ::walks to a TL:: Computer promenade.

<CEO Von Krieg says:>
 *EO* Nick, the pressure loss isn't serious, but I want this done by the book. Understand.

<EO_Devron says:> 
*CEO*: I'm getting some fairly large fractures, I understand.  By the book.

<SO_Fist says:> 
@::follows CSO::

<FCO_Braun says:> 
:: grins :: Bridge crew:  Good to see you all again...

<CTO_TERR says:>
 ::pats the XO's shoulder and then thinks "should I have done that":: Sir, we all cope with 
death in different ways. First my mother, then my brother, now you and Elizabeth. Even though we have all experienced it, no one person's ways of overcoming the grief can help another. You need to focus on something and get back on track. Tianna will be just fine and you're mother will love looking after her as she's been without a child.

<CMO_Lee says:> 
Computer: Deck 2.

<EO_Devron says:>
 *CPU*: Set emergency Forcefields in place for outer-port section of torpedo bay...

<CTO_TERR says:> 
XO: She won't resent you for not being there, it will make you r visits that much more special 
and give her a lot more joy when she sees you

<CSO_Hall says:> 
@::while in TL::SO: You play any musical instruments?

<CTO_TERR says:>
 ::sees Jacob come in:: Hello Jacob, nice trip?

<CEO Von Krieg says:> 
Computer: continue to monitor hull integrity in the aft torpedo bay.

<XO_Krust says:>
 CTO: Agreed.  If you're about finished here, let's go harass some junior officers on the Star 
base.  I need to check in on Magnus first, though.

<EO_Devron says:>
 Eng. Gates: Take Team 2 into the launching tube, give me a detail scan of any anomalous 
readings.

<FCO_Braun says:>
 CTO:  Yes it was.  I got to visit with family, it had been a long while since I had seen them.  
How was your leave...?

<XO_Krust says:> 
FCO: Welcome home, Lt. Braun.

<SO_Fist says:>
 @CSO: Piano, a little

<CTO_TERR says:>
 XO: Affirmative Sir, I'll tag along with you. I need to thank Magnus for his help with the TAC 
report. And if you ever need to chat, you can trust me not to tell anyone

<FCO_Braun says:>
 XO:  Thank you, Commander...

<EO_Devron says:> 
*CEO*: I am sending Team 2 down the tube, I have Forcefields in place, how are the energy 
signatures looking from your end?

<CSO_Hall says:> 
@SO:I play the tuba. I am surprised that you have not heard me play in my free time.

<CEO Von Krieg says:>
 *EO*  Stable, but pressure dropped another 1%

<CMO_Lee says:>
 ::arrives in sickbay, and turns off the lights, and heads for the station::

<CTO_TERR says:>
 FCO: Ask me in thirty minutes, it should have begun by then!

<XO_Krust says:>
 CTO: thanks, let's go check on Magnus and get out of here.

<CTO_TERR says:>
 ::nods at XO and follows him

<CTO_TERR says:> ::
<XO_Krust says:> FCO: Jacob, feel free to join us, I'm going to find an open Mic. club and play a little Klingon song.

<SO_Fist says:>
 @::thinks *Oh, that's what that noise was*

<EO_Devron says:> 
*CEO*: Roger that. ::turns to face crewman getting into the torpedo tube...

<CSO_Hall says:>
 @SO: There really is not many places to rehearse an instrument that is so loud and s o big.

<CTO_TERR says:>
 FCO: Don't worry Jacob, I've got ear bungs

<CEO Von Krieg says:>
 *EO* At any sign of decompression, I want you and your team out of there.

<XO_Krust says:>
 :: grabs gear and heads for the turbo lift ::

<FCO_Braun says:> 
:: thinks briefly :: XO, CTO:  You know, I could use a tall stein of beer before we ship out...

<SO_Fist says:>
 @CSO: tuba or sousaphone?

<CSO_Hall says:> 
@::sees the TL doors open and walks out::

<CTO_TERR says:>
 FCO: XO's paying  ::grabs Braun's hand and walks into the TL::

<EO_Devron says:>
 *CEO*: understood...*Gates* : keep an eye on the pressure, make sure the outer door is 
stable.

<CMO_Lee says:>
 @::exits the Pharaoh, and heads out to the nearest TL::

<XO_Krust says:>
 FCO: well, what we're looking for is in the same place.

<SO_Fist says:>
 ::suddenly feels at home and makes a beeline for the Dabo tables::

<CEO Von Krieg says:>
 *XO* Commander, we have a slight atmosphere leak in the aft torpedo bay. Ensign Devron 
and a repair team are on it now.

<CSO_Hall says:> 
@SO: Well I play both really. There is not much difference.

<FCO_Braun says:>
 :: follows the CTO as he pulls him by the hand ::

<CTO_TERR says:>
 ::looks at XO:: It never rains but it pours Sir!

<XO_Krust says:>
 *CEO* I'm just on my way there.

<XO_Krust says:>
 :: enters TurboLift, waits for other officers :: Engineering

<EO_Devron says:>
 ::Eng. Gates and team reach the bay launching doors::

<SO_Fist says:>
 @::sidles up to the table to view the action::

<CSO_Hall says:> 
@SO: Boy Daven. You have a nose for gambling. Now me. I have a nose for the Dabo girls. 
::grins::

<FCO_Braun says:> 
:: follows XO and CTO to the TurboLift ::

<CTO_TERR says:>
 ::stands between Braun and K'rust and wonders which of them ate garlic for lunch::

<SO_Fist says:> 
@Dabo girl: Cocktails!

<FCO_Braun says:>
 :: stifles a burp in the turbo-lift ::

<CTO_TERR says:>
 ::It was Braun!::

<CMO_Lee says:>
 ::enters turbo-lift::

<CSO_Hall says:>
 @SO: Daven, you stay here and play. I am going to the bar. I feel in the mood for a beer.

<EO_Devron says:>
 ::scans armor plate damage to torpedo bay compensator.

<XO_Krust says:>
 All:  This is our last leave for awhile, so let's make the most of it.  But, if any of you get into 
trouble, I don't know you.  :: stifles a chuckle ::

<CEO Von Krieg says:> 
Computer, stabilize oxygen content in the aft torpedo bay and engage secondary life support 
systems.

<FCO_Braun says:>
 :: arches an eyebrow :: XO:  Trouble...?  No never...

<SO_Fist says:> 
@::pulls out handkerchief containing six bars of latinum::

<EO_Devron says:>
*CEO*: I just heard the oxygen vents kick in, are we in secondary life support mode?

<CTO_TERR says:> 
XO: That's okay Sir, a Klingon damages our street credentials, we don't know you either  
::looks to Braun and laughs:: XO: I do have my type one in the pocket

<XO_Krust says:>
 FCO: I may hold you to that, Jacob.

<FCO_Braun says:>
 :: laughs with CTO at the joke ::

<CMO_Lee says:>
 ::finds a bar with a pretty good trombone player, and replicates a cup of punch::

<CSO_Hall says:> 
::thinks, well maybe I don't want a beer::

<SO_Fist says:>
 @waitress: Martini, extra dry, two olives

<XO_Krust says:>
 CTO: that's okay, I have a retractable blade in my boot.  I don't think we'll have any trouble at 
all.

<CEO Von Krieg says:>
 *EO* Just giving you some more O2.  I don't want you passing out on me.

<CTO_TERR says:>
 XO: I always wondered why when you walked behind me that I had a sharp pain in my heel?

<XO_Krust says:>
 :: exits turbo-lift at engineering and proceeds to CEO's position ::

<FCO_Braun says:>
 CTO:  I don't think we will run into that much trouble... this not a frontier outpost like DS 3...

<XO_Krust says:> 
CTO: that was just my glare, wanting you to walk faster.

<CTO_TERR says:>
 ::walks up to Von Krieg and smiles at the XO's remark::

<FCO_Braun says:>
 :: follows XO and CTO to engineering ::

<EO_Devron says:> 
::Oxygen swirls heavily in a burst towards Team 2.....

<XO_Krust says:>
 CEO: Magnus, how goes that pesky hiss?

<SO_Fist says:>
 @::throws a bar of latinum on the table:: Dealer: Change, please.

<EO_Devron says:>
 *Gates* : Is the launch door seal intact?

<CEO Von Krieg says:>
 ::snaps to attention:: Sir, aft bay has experienced a 3% loss in atmosphere. ::chuckling:: Star 
base didn't weld us up right.

<SO_Fist says:>
 @::places bets::

<EO_Devron says:>
 ::Eng. Gates attempts to lift hatch....

<XO_Krust says:> 
CEO: How long before it's fixed?

<CTO_TERR says:>
 CEO: Magnus, could you use a pair of extra hands ::never did like shore leave::

<EO_Devron says:> 
::WHOOSH, the oxygen sucks outward as the door opens, unexpectedly...:::!!!

<CEO Von Krieg says:>
 XO: Should be fixed within the hour.

<CSO_Hall says:>
 @SO: Daven, I am going to the Pharaoh. I am going to catch up on my tuba.

<XO_Krust says:>
 CTO: I'm sure Magnus and Nick can handle this, besides, who is going to keep Jacob away 
from the waitresses.

<CEO Von Krieg says:> 
::alarms go off at duty Station::

<EO_Devron says:> 
*CEO*: Sir, I've got a depressurization in progress!!!!

<EO_Devron says:>
 *Gates*! Report.

<SO_Fist says:> 
@[Dealer]: Hit!

<CTO_TERR says:>
 ::runs over to the duty station::

<XO_Krust says:>
 CEO: excellent, have you and your staff join us on the Station as soon as you can.

<SO_Fist says:> 
@CSO: OK, see ya

<EO_Devron says:>
 ::Gates is thrust out the launch door::

<FCO_Braun says:> 
:: has a mock look of pain on his face :: XO:  Hey!  There was just that one bartender on DS3...

<CSO_Hall says:>
 @SO: Don't get to drunk now. I don't want o have to come back and carry you to the ship. 
::grins::

<CEO Von Krieg says:>
 XO: Dammit. The bay just depressurized!

<CTO_TERR says:>
 XO: Someone has just been blown out into space!

<EO_Devron says:> 
*Gates*: Hold your breath, don't breathe...hold on!!!

<SO_Fist says:> 
@Dealer: Let it ride!

<XO_Krust says:>
 CTO: What!

<EO_Devron says:> 
*CEO*: Emergency transport, NOW!!!

<CSO_Hall says:> 
@::heads for turbo lift::

<XO_Krust says:> 
:: thinks, I don't need this right now ::

<CTO_TERR says:>
 XO: I think it was Gates, he's outside

<SO_Fist says:>
 @[Dealer]: Another winner!

<CTO_TERR says:>
 *TR*: Get those people out of there Chief

<XO_Krust says:>
 CTO: Transport NOW

<EO_Devron says:>
 *CPU* :Emergency Forcefields, now, *TEAM 2*: Secure yourselves, Report!*

<CTO_TERR says:> 
::reroutes TR controls to the station and engages::

<XO_Krust says:>
 All: Report!  Did we get them?

<CTO_TERR says:>
 XO: Energizing and I have Mr. Gates as well

<SO_Fist says:> 
@::throws two more bars down:: Dealer: Parlay it!

<CSO_Hall says:> 
@Computer docks.

<EO_Devron says:>
 ::Gates drifts inside a blue haze, holding his breath as he sees the transported pad

<XO_Krust says:> 
CTO: Excellent, well done gentlemen.

<SO_Fist says:>
 @::wipes sweat from brow::

<CTO_TERR says:>
 XO: All in a day's shore leave

<EO_Devron says:>
 *CEO*: Team2 reports all O.k., How is Gates?

<CEO Von Krieg says:> 
Computer: Lock down the aft bay.

<CMO_Lee says:>
 @::the trombone soloist stops and receives a nice applause from the audience::

<CTO_TERR says:>
 Gates: Are you okay, needing oxygen, talk to me man

<CSO_Hall says:>
 @::Walks off TL and onto the Pharaoh. Heads to his quarters::

<FCO_Braun says:> 
All:  Is Mr. Lee in sickbay or onboard SB 257...?

<XO_Krust says:>
 CEO: Is that the armor plating we're waiting for?

<EO_Devron says:>
 ::Forcefields whine into place...::

<CEO Von Krieg says:>
 *EO* He's a little blue and cold, but he's alive. What the hell happened?

<CSO_Hall says:> 
::taps comm. badge:: XO:Hall to K'rust.

<FCO_Braun says:> 
*CMO*: Mr. Lee, report

<SO_Fist says:> 
@[Dealer]: Hit! Unbelievable!

<XO_Krust says:>
 *CSO* Go ahead, Will.

<SO_Fist says:> 
@Dealer: Cash me out.

<EO_Devron says:> 
*CEO*: The oxygen levels from the secondary support caused the hatch to blow when Gates 
checked the override....That is a design flaw someone must have over looked....

<CSO_Hall says:>
 *XO*: Sir, I am back onboard the ship if you need me.

<CTO_TERR says:>
 XO: I think we should call it there for today, everyone is tired and they all need sleep. 
Magnus hasn't slept in thirty-two hours

<SO_Fist says:> 
@::rakes up nearly 50 bars of latinum and attempts to leave the table::

<CMO_Lee says:> 
@*FCO*: Yes, how may I help you?

<EO_Devron says:> 
*CEO*: A spark from the manual release set the oxygen off and caused the launch door to 
blow...

<XO_Krust says:>
 *CSO* Acknowledged, we have a situation in the aft section, check with Ensign Devron and 
see if he needs assistance.

<CSO_Hall says:>
 *XO* :Aye sir.

<SO_Fist says:>
 @::suddenly surrounded by women::

<CEO Von Krieg says:>
 *EO* Good work.  I think our shore leave is cancelled though.

<FCO_Braun says:> 
*CMO*:  We have had an accident...  Mr. Gates, an engineering officer, was blown out into 
space.  We have recovered him safely but he may need medical attention...

<EO_Devron says:> 
*Team2*: evacuate and seal the area, We need pressure suits and some anchoring 
equipment

<FCO_Braun says:>
 *CMO*:  If you would like I can render some first aid ...

<CSO_Hall says:>
 ::taps comm. badge again::*EO* CSO Hall to EO Devron.

<EO_Devron says:>
 *CEO*: Yeah, and 257 serves a mean Gatorade Frost....

<EO_Devron says:>
 *CSO*: Go ahead..

<CEO Von Krieg says:>
 *EO* I'll buy you one at the bar. I'm on my way to your location.

<CSO_Hall says:>
 *EO* Devron, I am available if you need my assistance.

<XO_Krust says:> 
CEO: The hull sections in question are slated for replacement, can we keep Forcefields in 
place and wait for the parts to arrive tomorrow?

<CTO_TERR says:>
 ::finishes entering commands into the station and walks over to K'rust, XO: Now you know 
why I never like to go on shore leave and leave the ship

<CMO_Lee says:>
 @*FCO*: I will be there in a few moments, just warn me if his heart stops.

<CEO Von Krieg says:>
 XO: Yes sir, but I hate to leave the ship unready for combat.

<CMO_Lee says:> 
::stands up and heads for the Pharaoh::

<FCO_Braun says:>
 :: grabs an emergency pack from console ::

<SO_Fist says:> 
@Bartender: two Martinis

<EO_Devron says:>
 *CSO*: Your assistance is appreciated.  I've got some people with flash burns....a little 
shaken up too

<XO_Krust says:> 
CTO: If we would have put force fields up and all have been off the ship, no one would have 
gotten hurt, so sometimes, shore leave is a good thing.

<FCO_Braun says:> 
XO, CTO:  I am going to render first aid to Gates until Mr. Lee arrives...

<CTO_TERR says:>
 XO: I agree, but it's no use going over it now It happened.

<FCO_Braun says:> 
:: heads for EO Devron's position ::

<XO_Krust says:> 
FCO: Try to get the gaseous nitrogen levels down in his blood, which should stabilize him.  
Vacuum boil can be very dangerous

<CSO_Hall says:> 
*EO* Devron, I  am on my way. I will serve as a counselor to the ones who are shaken up. Is 
that  agreeable?

<FCO_Braun says:>

<CEO Von Krieg says:>
 XO: Sir, Forcefields are stable and I've rerouted auxiliary power to those systems.

<CSO_Hall says:>
 *EO*I will bring a med kit as well.

<XO_Krust says:>
 CEO: So we should be safe until we get the replacement parts?

<SO_Fist says:>
 @::tilts back a Martini and makes small talk with the girl::

<EO_Devron says:>
 *CSO*: Copy that, thanks...

<CTO_TERR says:>
 XO: Sir, if you want, I'll stay onboard as Officer of the Watch and keep an eye on things 

<FCO_Braun says:>

 :: notes CMO's arrival ::

<CMO_Lee says:>
 ::begins to scan Gates with med tri-coder::

<CEO Von Krieg says:>
 XO: Yes sir.  The hull fractures don't go beyond the aft section. Once the crew is out, we can 
depressurize that area as well.

<EO_Devron says:>
 ::Motions for the team to line the deck for examinations.

<FCO_Braun says:>

<CMO_Lee says:>
 FCO: He is stabilized

<CTO_TERR says:>
 XO: Fine by me Sir, any chance to get off shore leave. I'll go to the bridge and let the Star 
base know what happened?

 Eng.: just have a seat along the bulkhead, Hall will be here in a minute with a Med-kit.  You 
people did good to secure yourselves. Gates is gonna be O.K.

<XO_Krust says:>
 CTO: I'll join you, we can coordinate from there.

<CMO_Lee says:> 
FCO: Had he begin in space for another couple of moments, he would not.

<CTO_TERR says:> 
::nods to XO and walks to TL, hoping that it gets to the bridge faster::

<SO_Fist says:> 
@::wonders if his shipmates are enjoying their shore leave::

<CSO_Hall says:>
 CMO: Mr. Lee, I need a med kit.

<XO_Krust says:>
 :: turns to CEO as he walks out of engineering :: CEO: We'll be on the bridge, keep us 
apprised.

<XO_Krust says:>
 :: enters TL :: Bridge

<CEO Von Krieg says:> 
XO: Understood.

<FCO_Braun says:> 
CMO:  Sir?  If you would like, I think we could get the rest of these wounded to sick bay... they 
appear to be ambulatory...

<CMO_Lee says:>
 *CSO*: Could you grab a stretcher for Gates?

<CTO_TERR says:>
 ::walks onto bridge and walks over to TAC::

<CEO Von Krieg says:> 
*EO* As soon as your team is out of the area, I'm depressurizing the area.

<CMO_Lee says:>
 FCO: I would definitely agree.

<SO_Fist says:> 
@::finishes his drink and follows the girl up to her quarters::

<CSO_Hall says:> 
CMO: Yes. ::grabs stretcher::

<XO_Krust says:>
 CTO: we should have gone to DS3, it has a pressurized dry dock.  This never would have 
happened there.  I hate older star bases.

<CTO_TERR says:>
 ::opens com frequency to Star base::

<EO_Devron says:>
 *CEO*: We are getting them out now, I'll let you know as soon as we are clear.

<XO_Krust says:>
 :: sits in big chair ::

<XO_Krust says:>
 :: begins a status report for the Captain ::

<FCO_Braun says:>
 :: stands and turns to the injured engineering crew against the wall ::

<CTO_TERR says:> 
XO: Orders are orders, we have to follow them, whether we like em or not, Channel open Sir

<CMO_Lee says:>
 ::follows FCO::

<FCO_Braun says:>
 Injured Crew:  If you all will just follow me, we can treat you in sick bay.

<SO_Fist says:>
 @::enters room and proceeds to put on the performance of his life::

<CSO_Hall says:>
 CMO: Lee can I get a med kit?

<EO_Devron says:>
 *CEO*: Last man is out, You are clear to depressurize the area.

<FCO_Braun says:>
 :: would really like that tall cold stein of beer right now ::

<XO_Krust says:> 
CTO: yes, even if they don't make sense.

<CEO Von Krieg says:>
 *EO* Understood. Depressurizing now.

<FCO_Braun says:>
 :: arrives at sick bay with the wounded ::

<SO_Fist says:>
 @::looks at watch:: Girl: Well, gotta go!

<EO_Devron says:>
 ::Seals doorway and follows crewmembers to SickBay.

<SO_Fist says:> 
@::walks down to Promenade, has one last drink, and heads back to Pharaoh::

<XO_Krust says:>
 *CMO* Have you stabilized Ensign Gates, Eric?

<CTO_TERR says:
> K'rust: Look at it this way Sir, at least we didn't get attacked by a wing of Jem Haddar 
fighters while the CO was away.

<FCO_Braun says:>
 CMO:  Mr. Lee?  I can stay if you like, but they seem to be in your capable hands...

<EO_Devron says:>
 *CEO*: I'll be in sickbay, meet you at 2230 for that Gatorade

<XO_Krust says:> 
:: cringes at the name Jem Haddar, his blood starts to boil ::

<XO_Krust says:>
 CTO: I might rather enjoy that

<CMO_Lee says:>
 FCO: Thank you for your help

<CTO_TERR says:>
 ::Realizes his mistake, XO: Sorry Sir
