Host Rich says:
Prologue: The Paula Greene has just dropped out of warp at the outer edge of the Olnelly System.
Host Rich says:
*********************Begin Mission***************************
FCO_Miller says:
CO:  Sir, we've just entered the Olnelly system.
CTO_Shoarra says:
::at tactical, setting up the drill schedule::
Host CO_Bafii says:
::sitting in the big seat, he looks up:: FCO: Excellent.  Do you have our survey course plotted?
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::sitting on the XO’s chair::
CSO_Biishe says:
::At her station running mapping programs.::
FCO_Miller says:
::enters some commands into his console::  CO:  Survey course laid in sir.
Host CO_Bafii says:
::turning slightly:: CSO: Are you ready Commander?
CTO_Shoarra says:
*TO_Rio*: Get the holodeck ready for the first set of simulations.  We'll start with the off-duty security officers first.
CTO_Shoarra says:
<TO_Rio> *CTO*: Yes Ma'am, I'm on it.
CSO_Biishe says:
::Looks over her shoulder with a twinkle of mischief in her eyes::  CO:  With the understanding that this is my first time, yes.
Host CO_Bafii says:
::stands::  CSO: You have the bridge.  
FCO_Miller says:
::slaves OPS over to his console and checks some of they systems::
Host CO_Bafii says:
XO: Join me in the ready room please.
CSO_Biishe says:
::Glances from the captain to her husband and nods.::
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::nods, and gets up, following the CO into his RR::
Host CO_Bafii says:
::makes for his office::
Host CO_Bafii says:
::entering the RR he walks over to the replicator and orders coffee::  XO: Can I get you anything?
FCO_Miller says:
::brings up the preliminary scans and starts viewing them::
CTO_Shoarra says:
::her screen flashes a report of the first round starting in the holodeck::
CTO_Shoarra says:
Self: Hmm, I wonder if I should throw a few curve balls into that program? ::grins::
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::nods as he sits down on the chair in front of the CO's desk:: CO : Sure.. Vulcan Spice tea.
CSO_Biishe says:
::With a frown of concentration, enters the data from the inner planets and moving outward.::  Hmmm... interesting...
Host CO_Bafii says:
::amends the order and watches as the drinks shimmer into existence, handing a cup to the XO he moves over to his seat, sipping at the hot brew::

FCO_Miller says:
CSO:  Cmdr., I suggest we start with the class M and go from there.
Host CO_Bafii says:
XO: I've read your report on the last away mission.  Looks like you had a rough time.
CTO_Shoarra says:
::taps into the holodeck program and adds a few items::
CSO_Biishe says:
::Keys in the planets orbits::  FCO:  Hmmm?  Oh... Alright.  I was thinking of the inner planet and moving outward, but starting at the class M world would be interesting.  I am also curious about the 6th planet out, it is a water world.
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::takes the cup and nods:: CO : Yes sir... ::sighs::
CTO_Shoarra says:
::continues setting up the schedule::
FCO_Miller says:
CSO:  Yes, that planet caught my attention as well.
Host CO_Bafii says:
XO: Anything you want to talk about?  I know we don't have a counselor on board at the moment...
CSO_Biishe says:
::As the computer starts to break down the information, she reads through some of it.::  FCO:  It would appear the gas giant, the 8th planet, has two moons rich in dilithium.  That ought to make someone happy somewhere.
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::chuckles:: CO : Thanks for the offer sir, but everything's fine... It just pains me to be the one to break the Prime Directive, that's all... We still don't know what the effect of my little problem will be on that society...
CSO_Biishe says:
FCO:  Ya know... unless there is an objection... What about going to the water world first as it is closest due to its trajectory.
Host CO_Bafii says:
XO: Command will probably have some questions about the events.
FCO_Miller says:
::brings up the information on the 8th planet and reviews it::  CSO:  No objection here.  I'm kinda curious about that world myself.
CTO_Shoarra says:
::grows a bit lightheaded, then closes her eyes to concentrate::
CSO_Biishe says:
::Smiles::  FCO:  Since he left it so err... wisely to us, that is your destination.  ETA?
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::nods:: CO : I was expecting that sir... And I’ll take whatever consequences derive from my actions.
CTO_Shoarra says:
::regains her control and goes back to work::
Host CO_Bafii says:
XO: I don't think they'll have much to go on, so I wouldn't worry about it too much.
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::nods:: CO : But that doesn't mean I don't feel like I do, sir.
FCO_Miller says:
::sets course and enters the commands::  CSO:  ETA in five minutes.
Host CO_Bafii says:
XO: Did you have any other options at the time?
CSO_Biishe says:
::Prepares sensors for water scanning.::
FCO_Miller says:
::brings the water planet up on the view screen::

CTO_Shoarra says:
::receives an update that part one of the scenario has completed::
FCO_Miller says:
CSO:  Certainly is a pretty world from up here.
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CO : Of course sir... Plenty of them... Had I chosen to go without all the technology I did, and had I not gone at the time I did, things might not have turned out this way..
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CO: The other teams didn't have any problems in their missions.
CSO_Biishe says:
::Turns to look at the screen, a touch of sadness coming to her eyes.::  FCO:  It always is.
CTO_Shoarra says:
*TO_Rio*: Thanks for the update Lieutenant.  Did you really have to add us being attacked by hot pink colored teddy bears?
CSO_Biishe says:
FCO:  Sometimes I wonder though...
CTO_Shoarra says:
::laughs:: *TO_Rio*: We explore the unknown.  You never know what you're going to get.
FCO_Miller says:
::senses the CSO's feelings::  CSO:  Anything wrong Cmdr.?
Host CO_Bafii says:
::leaning back in his chair::  XO: How long have you been wearing that red uniform now Commander?
CTO_Shoarra says:
::finishes up her schedule and awaits the XO's appearance to turn it in::
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CO : Roughly 5 years, sir..
CSO_Biishe says:
FCO:  That depends on your point of view.  Sometimes it seems so wrong to scout out worlds just for their mineral resources.  There is so much more to them.
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CO : 2 of which in that chair, sir.
FCO_Miller says:
CSO:  Unfortunately, I concur with you on that stance.
CSO_Biishe says:
::Nods toward the screen::  Take that world.  How often do you come to a world that is all H2O on the surface.  Obviously it has land underneath the water and ice crust, for I am picking up minerals, but still...  what about the life forms in the water.  They must be fascinating.
Host CO_Bafii says:
XO: The hardest part of command.. of any command.. is to look back at the decisions you made and not beat yourself for not knowing what you had no way of knowing.  Hindsight is 20/20 they say.
FCO_Miller says:
CSO:  Fascinating indeed.  It would be nice to survey something like that in-depth.....to see how those life forms adapted.
CTO_Shoarra says:
::sees the next set of drills start in the holodeck::
CSO_Biishe says:
FCO:  I would like to volunteer... but alas, our job stops at doing survey this time.  ::Taps her chin::  But ya know... it wouldn't hurt to put in a request.
FCO_Miller says:
CSO:  Hmmm, maybe if we petition hard enough!  ::grins::
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::nods:: CO : That it is sir... But I think this was the first time something like this happened to me, sir.

CTO_Shoarra says:
CSO: If we find enough of interest, perhaps Star Fleet would warrant a more thorough examination?
FCO_Miller says:
CSO:  So far, I'm not getting anything unusual from this planet.  You?
CSO_Biishe says:
FCO:  Let see... the CSO and FCO are in dire need of R&R on an unexplored water world... think they will buy it?  ::Looks down at her consoles flashing light.::
CTO_Shoarra says:
::grins at the CSO and FCO's "plans"::
CSO_Biishe says:
FCO:  Nope, other then the minerals and general life form.  We are done here.  Next planet.
CSO_Biishe says:
CTO:  If it were only so simple.  What a scientist finds interesting, does not often coincide with the brasses opinion.
Host CO_Bafii says:
XO: I won't lie to you, it isn't something you'll ever forget.  I remember every face that has ever died because of my choices... ::turning to the window:: out here they haunt me at times  ::returns to the XO:: but all I can do is go on and continue to make the best choices available to me.
CTO_Shoarra says:
::reopens the schedule and double checks everything::
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::nods:: CO : I know sir... ::he smiled:: I'll be all right, with time.
FCO_Miller says:
CSO:  Onward it is!  ::resumes course::
Host CO_Bafii says:
XO: Good.  Hopefully this survey mission will give you some extra free time.  Take advantage of it.
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::nods, finishing his tea:: CO : Aye sir.. I will...
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CO : Oh.. Sir.. Have you managed to see about the request I made for R&R?
FCO_Miller says:
CSO:  ETA to next planet is ten minutes.
CSO_Biishe says:
::Looks through the data they captured on their way in from LRS and the data coming in now from SRS.::  FCO/CTO:  Well, I think we could say this system is interesting... unusually so, and for the brass this time.
CTO_Shoarra says:
::taps into the planetary sensors out of curiosity::
FCO_Miller says:
CSO:  Looks like the 3rd planet is the furthest from our present course.....two hours.
CSO_Biishe says:
::nods toward miller.::  FCO/CTO:  The seventh planet is covered in solid ice with a couple of moons and the last, the gas giant also has a couple of moons... all rich in minerals.  Looks like a treasure mine.  ::Frowns in confusion::  How odd...
FCO_Miller says:
CSO:  Odd, Cmdr.?
Host CO_Bafii says:
XO: We have some maintenance scheduled after this mission, I'm sure we can use that to find the time you need.
CSO_Biishe says:
FCO:  One, to find a system so rich, but two... ::Shrugs her shoulders::  that it seems untouched.

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::nods, smiling:: CO : Thank you sir... I'm sure my daughter will thank you profusely when next she sees you.. Sir.
FCO_Miller says:
CSO:  I guess it surprises me as well that this system has gone untouched.  ::shrugs::
Host CO_Bafii says:
::nods, his thoughts slowly turning inward again::
CTO_Shoarra says:
CSO: And as long as profiteers don't find out about it, hopefully it can stay that way for a while.
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::raise an eyebrow slightly:: CO : Is there something on your mind, sir?
CSO_Biishe says:
CTO:   You have to be kidding... what was one of the main items we were to look at while we are here?
Host CO_Bafii says:
::looks up:: XO: Nothing more than the usual.  ::manages a meager smile, perhaps the first his crew has seen::  I'm fine, thank you.
CSO_Biishe says:
::Turns around and activates one of the sensor platforms while shutting down another.::  All:  Looks like no life on these last two... at least not in the criteria we are looking for.
FCO_Miller says:
::taps in some information::  CSO:  Confirmed.
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::nods:: CO : Of course, sir.. I didn't mean to pry...
Host CO_Bafii says:
::nods, clearly dismissing the XO for the time being::
CTO_Shoarra says:
CSO: My information said look for advanced life.  But, if everything is untouched, I doubt we'll find much in these two planets.
CSO_Biishe says:
FCO:  Unless you object, I think we have enough info from these last planets... at least for what they want.  Let's go take a peak at the M class world.
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::gets up, and takes the teacup into the replicator:: CO : Thank you for the tea, sir... ::moves towards the door:: CO : If anything comes up, I’ll let you know.. ::exits the RR.
CSO_Biishe says:
CTO:  Mine had possible mining sites... it nice bold letters amongst the rest.
FCO_Miller says:
CSO:  Aye.  ::sets course and engages::  ETA in two hours.
Host Rich says:
Action: a plasma conduit erupts in ME taking the impulse engines of line
CTO_Shoarra says:
CSO: She's your show Commander.  But, like I said...I don't want to let profiteers we know, or find out about this place.  The Ferengi would have this planet stripped clean in a year.
CSO_Biishe says:
::Looks at Tealk curiously::  XO:  We have finished the initial scans of the outer three worlds, we are heading for the M class... ::Stops::  What the....
Host CO_Bafii says:
<CEO Burke>  ::hearing a loud explosion, jumps from his chair::  What the!!
FCO_Miller says:
::looks down at his console as he hears a beep::  CSO:  Impulse engines have just gone offline.
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::stumbles but manages to keep up:: All : Report!!!
CSO_Biishe says:
::Looks over at Shoarra::  CTO:  Find out what that was.

CSO_Biishe says:
*CEO*:  Chief, what are you doing down there?
CTO_Shoarra says:
::checking internal sensors for the source of the problem::
Host CO_Bafii says:
<CEO Burke>  ::runs over a control console and manually shuts down the line::
Host CO_Bafii says:
<CEO Burke> *Bridge* We just had a plasma line rupture... we have injured.
CTO_Shoarra says:
XO: Sir, we have a plasma conduit explosion.  It appears Engineering is already working on it.  I show the plasma is already being diverted.
CSO_Biishe says:
FCO:  So we are on inertia at the moment?
FCO_Miller says:
CSO:  Affirmative Cmdr.
Host CO_Bafii says:
::appears quickly on the bridge:: 
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
*Sickbay* : Medical emergency in Main Engineering.. Plasma leak... Report down there ASAP
CSO_Biishe says:
*CEO*:  I'll send a medical team down.  How bad is it?
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::turns to his wife and smiles::
CSO_Biishe says:
::Glances at Tealk having covered that.::
FCO_Miller says:
CSO:  Checking on thrusters now.  ::begins entering commands into his console::
Host CO_Bafii says:
<CEO Burke> *CSO*: Bad... oh my god... its bad
CTO_Shoarra says:
CSO: I can go.  With my physiology, I can help quickly.
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::frowns:: CEO : Be specific chief...
CSO_Biishe says:
CTO:  Go... I may join you soon.
CTO_Shoarra says:
::nods:: *TO_Rio*: Report to the bridge Stat!
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CO : Sir.. We've just suffered a plasma line rupture in engineering.
CSO_Biishe says:
CTO:  As soon as they know what happened, let me know.
CTO_Shoarra says:
::locks down her station until relief arrives and heads to the turbo lift::
FCO_Miller says:
CSO:  Thrusters are online.  Until we have impulse engines fixed, I suggest using thrusters to survey the fourth and fifth planets, as they are only five minutes from our present course.
Host CO_Bafii says:
<CEO Burke> ::looks at the remains of two of his crewman burnt to the decking as medics begin arriving and helping those less severely burnt::
CTO_Shoarra says:
CSO: I will. ::steps into the turbo lift::
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CO : Sickbay's been alerted, and Engineering has already diverted the plasma flow from the affected area.
CTO_Shoarra says:
Computer: Main Engineering, emergency speed!

Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CO : We've lost Impulse engines due to the blast.
Host CO_Bafii says:
::nods::  XO: Get a repair estimate
CTO_Shoarra says:
::feels the turbo lift take off::
CSO_Biishe says:
::Practical.::  FCO:  Agreed.  Might as well not stop if we don't need to.
FCO_Miller says:
CSO:  Aye!  Fourth and fifth planets it is!
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
CO : I'm more worried about the injury report, sir... *CEO* : Chief... We've already sent medical down to help you.. In the meantime... Can you give us an estimate on how long it will take to get Impulse engines back online?
CTO_Shoarra says:
::jumps out the moment the lift doors open and runs to engineering::
Host CO_Bafii says:
<CEO Burke> ::his limbs are cold and feel like they each weigh a ton as he surveys the damage done::
Host CO_Bafii says:
::his brow furrows as they don't get an answer from the CEO::
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::frowns:: CO : You want me down there, sir?
CTO_Shoarra says:
::enters engineering and finds the injured:: CEO: Are you injured? ::looks for anyone the medics aren't already helping::
CSO_Biishe says:
XO:  Perhaps I should go...
Host CO_Bafii says:
CSO: Continue with your scans...  XO: Commander, see what’s going on down there.
Host CO_Bafii says:
::takes his seat, wondering why it isn't every quiet for just one day::
CSO_Biishe says:
::shakes her head, times like these it is hard to remain out of sickbay::  FCO:  ETA?
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::nods:: CO : Aye sir.. *CEO* : Chief, I’m heading down to you.. ::moves to the TL, enters, and speaks TL :Main Engineering::
Host CO_Bafii says:
<CEO Burke> CTO: I... I just had lunch with T'Mar... she didn't finish her soup...
FCO_Miller says:
CSO:  ETA in four minutes.
CTO_Shoarra says:
::puts her hands on his shoulders:: CEO: Burke, are YOU hurt?
CSO_Biishe says:
FCO:  Funny, as fast as we go, sometimes it seems like forever.  ::Turns back to her station.::
FCO_Miller says:
CO:  Perhaps the CSO and myself can take a shuttle to the 3rd planet and begin preliminary scans ahead of the PG?
Host CO_Bafii says:
<CEO Burke> CTO: She wasn't even supposed to be on shift today... I asked her to put in some time running diagnostics... she was always willing to help
CTO_Shoarra says:
::sees a technician removing the two dead bodies::
Host CO_Bafii says:
FCO: That's up to Commander Biishe.
CSO_Biishe says:
::Looks surprised at her captain.::
CTO_Shoarra says:
::places her hand on Burke's neck, trying to sense any injury to him:: CEO: Look at me.
FCO_Miller says:
::turns around and looks at the CSO::  CSO:  Cmdr., what do you think?
Host CO_Bafii says:
<CEO Burke> ::only because of the CTO's immense will does he finally tear his eyes away from the horrific scene to meet hers::
CSO_Biishe says:
::Shrugs::  FCO:  Actually, I think I Iike that idea.  ::Does not add she would feel less guilty for not helping down with the injured.::  Prepare a shuttle and I will gather a few items.
FCO_Miller says:
CSO:  Understood.  ::stands::  CO:  Permission to head down to the flight bay.
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::as his TL reaches his destination, he rushes out, heading as quickly as he can to ME::
Host CO_Bafii says:
FCO: Granted
CTO_Shoarra says:
CEO: The ship.  Can you take care of the ship?
Host CO_Bafii says:
CSO: Make sure you maintain communications
FCO_Miller says:
::turns on his heels and heads toward the TL and steps in::
Host CO_Bafii says:
<CEO Burke> CTO: The ship... the...  ::slowly slips back to himself::  Um, ya...  turns and starts hitting controls on a console, slowly at first but a little faster each second.
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::enters the ME doors, and stops for a while to look at the damage, and the injured..::
CSO_Biishe says:
*SO*:  Come to the bridge Ziana, I want you to take over while I am of the ship.
Host CO_Bafii says:
<CEO_Burke>:Aloud:  The damage is bad, but we can work around it... it'll take an hour or so.
CSO_Biishe says:
<SO Ziana> *CSO*:  Off the ship? Aye.  I will be up there in a moment.  ::Puts away the work she was about to start on.::
FCO_Miller says:
::enters the flight bay and heads over to one of the shuttles.....getting in and beginning pre-flight inspections::
CTO_Shoarra says:
CEO: I am sorry for you loss, but we must make certain the ship is okay.  We can't lose anymore.
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::walks up to the CEO and CTO:: CEO : Chief? Are you alright? ::eyes the CTO, with a question in his eyes::
CSO_Biishe says:
::Reaches under her console and gathers a few items.::  CO:  Captain, I am heading out now.  ::Moves toward the turbo lift.::
CTO_Shoarra says:
XO: He lost two members of his staff Sir.  One was here voluntarily during her time off.  Others have been injured but the medics are seeing to them.
Host CO_Bafii says:
<CEO_Burke>::turns to look at the CTO, a tear in his eye and then just nods as he grabs a toolkit and walks towards the Jeffries entrance, not really noticing the XO::  Aloud: Baker, Salizar.. you two are with me.
CSO_Biishe says:
::As the doors slide shut::  Computer, main science lab.
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::nods at the CTO:: CEO : Chief... How bad is the damage?
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::Watches as he walks away::
CTO_Shoarra says:
::sees the last of the injured taken to sickbay::
FCO_Miller says:
::waits for the CSO as he is just about done with pre-flight inspections::
Host CO_Bafii says:
<CEO Burke> ::startled to hear the XO, he turns:: XO: Um, its bad but we can get it up an running in an hour.
Host CO_Bafii says:
<CEO Burke> ::his ever-present smile is missing::
CSO_Biishe says:
::After a moment, the turbo lift stops.  The doors open to reveal Ziana ready to get on.::  SO:  Changing places for a moment.  Engines are off line.  ::Takes the gear Ziana is holding out to her.::   You are priceless...
CSO_Biishe says:
<SO Ziana>  ::Smiles::  I know.  See you when you get back.
CSO_Biishe says:
::As the doors close again::  Computer, flight deck.
Host CO_Bafii says:
<CEO Burke> ::disappears into the JT with his two crewmen::
CTO_Shoarra says:
XO: Sir, with everything under control here, I'll be heading back to the bridge.
CTO_Shoarra says:
XO: If that's okay with you?
CSO_Biishe says:
::As the doors swish open, she steps through and hurries to the shuttlebay, hating to keep people waiting.::
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::nods:: CTO : Certainly...
CSO_Biishe says:
::Seeing Miller waiting, she comes to a stop before him.::  FCO:  Ready when you are.
FCO_Miller says:
::hears the CSO coming::  *CO*:  All systems go.  Requesting departure.
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
*CO* : Sir... I've got a repair estimate for you... 1 hour..
CTO_Shoarra says:
XO: With an hour for repairs, I will postpone the rest of my drill schedule.  The crew can pitch in down here.
CSO_Biishe says:
::Slips into the co-pilot chair, dropping her gear near the wall, onto the floor.::
CTO_Shoarra says:
::exits engineering and heads back to the bridge::
Host CO_Bafii says:
*FCO*: Come back safe
FCO_Miller says:
::the flight bay doors open::  CSO:  Hang on, here we go!
Host CO_Bafii says:
*XO*: Understood
Host XO_Amendoeira says:
::stays behind watching the medical teams carry out the wounded.. and the dead.. :: *CO* : The scene here is bad, sir..
CSO_Biishe says:
::Chuckles::  FCO:  Keep in mind the captain just said to come back safe.
