USS Paula Greene presents

Executive Officer in Training

Host SM Steve says:
USS Paula Greene, Stardate 10509.12

Host SM Steve says:
The Paula Greene has discovered that the loss of contact with the USS Chronus was due to a problem with the Chronus conducting a test of a new Quantum Torpedo mechanism.  The test opened a Quantum rift that did not seal as expected, causing the contents and characteristics of the other universe to leak into our own.

Host SM Steve says:
This is causing an increased nuclear force, causing in effect cold fusion of any free hydrogen

FCO Shilos says:
::sitting watching the helm station, making sure that the ship isn't going anywhere, fileing her finger nails, humming quietly::

CO Captain McAllister says:
::in his RR, reviewing the plan that will be put into action::

CMO Hayes says:
::at Sci 1, keeping sensors on the bubble::

CEO Lieutenant Bishara says:
::in engineering working with the C-CEO::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
::On his quarters, reading the USS Chronus crew manifest and other reports, getting ready to go to the bridge::

Host SM Steve says:
Action: The bubble continues to glow from the fusion taking place within, and it continues it's slow expansion into surrounding space

CMO Hayes says:
FCO: The bubble is still expanding.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
::leaves his quarters:: *CEO* Lieutenant, how is it going?  Do you have your simulations ready?

CO Captain McAllister says:
::satisfied with what's in the plan, he turns his console the other way and stands up::

CEO Lieutenant Bishara says:
*XO*: Yes sir so far all simulations are working fine.

FCO Shilos says:
::nods:: CMO: Understood.

CMO Hayes says:
FCO: And it's actually expanding a tiny bit faster. It went from 10.0M/second to 10.0001M/second.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
*CEO* Great! they really show that the bubble will cease the fusion reaction and will afterwards collapse?

CO Captain McAllister says:
::walks over and looks out at the glow that's just outside and ponders for just a moment::

FCO Shilos says:
::leans forward to make sure that they will remain clear of the bubble for a while than resumes fileing her nails:: CMO: That is interesting, any idea why it is doing that?

CEO Lieutenant Bishara says:
*XO*: The computer simulations show that the effect should be sufficient to seal the rift and then the effect will dissipate on it's own.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
*CEO* Understood. Assemble the new quantum torpedo.  Call in the C-CTO if you need him.  Z’heta out

XO Commander Z’heta says:
::enters the bridge::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
FCO: hello. Report, please.

FCO Shilos says:
::glances at the XO and nods figuring that the waiting bit is over and calmly puts the nail file away :: XO: The rift is expanding slightly faster than previously, nothing else to report, sir.

CMO Hayes says:
FCO: It's too small an expansion to be able to pinpoint what may be causing it. It could be an infinite numbers of things.

CO Captain McAllister says:
::collects his thoughts before turning around and heading toward the door::

C-CEO Lieutenant Johansen says:
CEO: Yes it is going to work just fine.  I believe it will work.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
FCO: I see. CMO: Will we have to make haste on or torpedo, or are we still comfortable with the time?

CEO Lieutenant Bishara says:
::smiles at Lt. Johansen::

CMO Hayes says:
XO: We still have a few hours before the growth pushes it too far, sir. But the sooner we treat it, the better I think.

CO Captain McAllister says:
::exits his RR and enters onto the bridge, heading for his chair::  XO:  Status Mr. Z’heta?

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CMO: Understood.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CO: you have the bridge, Captain. The computer simulations are OK and we're on torpedo production phase already, Sir.

CO Captain McAllister says:
XO:  Very good.  How long before the production is complete?

CMO Hayes says:
::goes back to monitoring the sensors::

C-CEO Lieutenant Johansen says:
C-CTO Gorge: Sir, our simulations have been established and all work.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CO: I'm about to check it, Sir.  *CEO* It seems that the bubble is increasing a bit faster.  We'll need that torpedo soon.  Do you have an ETA on it?

CEO Lieutenant Bishara says:
*XO*: Sir it should be ready in about 15 minutes for the Quantum.

Host C-CTO Gorge says:
C-CEO: Good, at least we have a shot at fixing this mess.  I still can't believe we opened something like this.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
*CEO* Thank you, Bridge out.  CO: Captain, the torpedo should be ready in a quarter of an hour.

C-CEO Lieutenant Johansen says:
C-CTO: Well we did sir and now we need to close the thing and fast.

CO Captain McAllister says:
XO:  Do you have anyone working on a back-up plan should this attempt fail?

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CO: No Sir.  I was in my quarters sketching some protocols to quarantine this area, should the torpedo fail, but that's it.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CO: perhaps the Chronus crew can start thinking on other possibilities.

Host C-CTO Gorge says:
C-CEO/ CEO: As bad as this was, at least this didn't happen on a planetary research centre.  If this happened in reach of a star...  But this isn't the time for that, not yet.

CO Captain McAllister says:
XO:  Then I suggest you inform them to start working on one.  I don't want this bubble to get too big so that we run out of options.

CEO Lieutenant Bishara says:
C-CTO: If it had reached a planetary scale, the out come would have been....well unbelievable.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CO: Aye, aye, Sir.  I'll talk to them in person.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
::leaves the bridge and enters TL::  Computer: Main engineering.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
::sees the doors opening, steps out of the TL and enters ME:: CEO: Is the torpedo nearly ready for deployment?

FCO Shilos says:
::fiddles with something on her console than glances around and shrugs than resumes humming quietly to herself making sure that the ship's thrusters remain at station keeping from time to time.::

CEO Lieutenant Bishara says:
::jumps a little::  XO: Sir.

CEO Lieutenant Bishara says:
XO: Sir it should be ready in about two minutes.

CO Captain McAllister says:
CMO:  Dr., let me know the instant that bubble starts expanding at a faster rate.

C-CEO Lieutenant Johansen says:
XO: Pleasure to meet you sir.  One torpedo is ready and the second will be ready in 20 minutes if needed.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CEO: As you were...  Do you still need the assistance of the Chronus senior officers?

CMO Hayes says:
CO: Yes, Captain.

CEO Lieutenant Bishara says:
XO: Yes sir just in case the first one does not work.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
::looks at the C-CEO:: C-CEO: I saw you on the Briefing we had together.  Nice to meet you too. ::shakes hands::

C-CEO Lieutenant Johansen says:
XO: Your CEO has some of the best and most brilliant ideas and as far as how she runs her department I think I will use some of her ideas my self.

CO Captain McAllister says:
FCO:  Lt., will we experience any after-affects to our impulse engines or warp drive, if we are successful?

Host C-CTO Gorge says:
XO/ CEO: If this doesn't work, then we will have a major task ahead of us.  I think it would be possible to use ship generated fields, but it would be risky to try.

CEO Lieutenant Bishara says:
C-CTO: Well if it comes to that sir I will extract another miracle from my bag. ::smiles::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
C-CEO: that's always nice to hear! ::winks at the CEO::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
C-CTO: Please, work on that thought, we do need a backup plan if the torpedoes don't work.

Host C-CTO Gorge says:
XO: Aye Sir, R&D has a series of plans for this kind of thing, although most of us working with them thought it was being overly cautious.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
C-CTO: Well, just oblige them, then.  Study those plans and develop a new course of action, just in case.

FCO Shilos says:
CO: So long as we don't cross into the rift itself no problems are anticipated with the engines, sir.

CO Captain McAllister says:
FCO:  And I'm sure that with your skilful flying, you'll be sure to keep us out of harms way.  ::grins::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
*CO* Captain, the first torpedo is nearly ready and the C-CEO is working on a 2nd one, if the 1st fails.  The C-CTO is also studying other plans to collapse the rift.

FCO Shilos says:
CO: It will be as smooth as ice, sir...considering how smooth ice is...there shouldn't be any problems.

CO Captain McAllister says:
*XO*:  Acknowledged.  I just want to be prepared.....just in case.  Thank you Mr. Z’heta.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
*CO* Aye Aye, Sir. Z’heta out.

CMO Hayes says:
::yawns and looks at the sensors, again::

CO Captain McAllister says:
FCO:  As long as that ice doesn't melt underneath us, I'm fine with that.

CEO Lieutenant Bishara says:
XO: Sir the Torpedo is ready and loaded and ready to be launched.

C-CEO Lieutenant Johansen says:
CEO: Let me do a final scan to make sure it is still stable.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CEO: Great.  Please assist the C-CTO on his research.  The C-CEO and I can handle the 2nd torpedo.

CO Captain McAllister says:
CMO:  A little different being at Science than what you're used to I bet.

C-CEO Lieutenant Johansen says:
::runs her scanner over it again::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
*CO* Captain, the 1st torpedo is ready to be launched.

CMO Hayes says:
CO: Let's say it's not my cup of tea.

C-CEO Lieutenant Johansen says:
XO: Understood sir

CEO Lieutenant Bishara says:
XO: Understood sir

C-CEO Lieutenant Johansen says:
CEO: She is stable and lets get her launched.

CO Captain McAllister says:
*XO*:  Understood.  I'd like you to coordinate things from up here Cmdr.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
*CO* On my way.

CO Captain McAllister says:
CMO:  Ah, so then you're a coffee drinker?  ::grins::

CMO Hayes says:
::laughs:: CO: You could say so, yes.

CEO Lieutenant Bishara says:
::looks at her friend:: C-CEO: You have taught me a few things as well.

CO Captain McAllister says:
CMO:  Well then, you will have to join me for a cup sometime.  Wouldn't mind hearing how things are going down in sickbay.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CEO: Ok, please get the 2nd torpedo ready and then you can work as a team on a backup plan.  The C-CTO has data on generated fields.

C-CEO Lieutenant Johansen says:
CEO: Thanks I am really interested in how you got your intermix that precise in the warp intermix chamber.

CMO Hayes says:
CO: That would be nice. Once we took care of the problem we have now.

CO Captain McAllister says:
CMO:  You sure?  I could always put us on hold?  ::let's out a chuckle::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
::says "see you" to the CEO, C-CEO and C-CTO, leaves ME and enters TL heading for Deck One::

CMO Hayes says:
::chuckles too and goes back to work::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
::enters the Bridge:: FCO: Are you ready to fire the torpedo? Do you have the coordinates locked in?

CEO Lieutenant Bishara says:
*XO*: Yes sir we are already on it sir.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
*CEO* Very good.

FCO Shilos says:
::double checks:: XO: I've had the coordinates locked in for about an hour and a half, sir. Ready to execute plan at your order, sir.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
::smiles at the FCO::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
FCO: Good.  CO: We're ready to fire the first torpedo, Sir.

CO Captain McAllister says:
XO:  This is your mission, you may fire when ready.

CO Captain McAllister says:
FCO:  On screen.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
::nods:: FCO: Fire!

CEO Lieutenant Bishara says:
C-CEO/C-CTO: Keep your fingers crossed.

FCO Shilos says:
::activates the viewer than presses the engage button piloting the Paula Greene closer to the rift::

CO Captain McAllister says:
::leans forward in his chair::

FCO Shilos says:
::watches the course and projected trajectory of the torpedo:: ALL: Firing Torpedo in Five...four...three...two...one...torpedo away. ::fires the torpedo::

Host C-CTO Gorge says:
Action: When the torpedo reaches the rift, there is a slight flash, followed by a quick but brief wave launching outward from the rift.  Behind the wave, material appears to be slowly pulling in towards the rift again.

FCO Shilos says:
::brings the ship around and plots a course back to a 'safe' distance::

CMO Hayes says:
ALL: The rift... it appears to be sealing itself.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
::watches the view screen::

CO Captain McAllister says:
::leans back in his chair and watches::

CEO Lieutenant Bishara says:
*Bridge*: Sir, is it working?
