Host ACTD John Sea says:
Resume USS Andromeda "Shakedown" Part 8 10202.24

CNS Jordain says:
::walking from sickbay to his office wearing the amulet around his neck::

Host CO Kalla says:
::On the bridge.:: XO: Yes pleas, a glass of water.

EO Z’heta says:
::on ME working on the Projector installation::

CSO Sketek says:
@::Going for the cover::

FCO Durron says:
::sitting at his console attentively doing nothing::

XO Miller says:
::brings the Captain a glass of water::

Host ACTD John Sea says:
Action:  Sensors Detect the USS Andromeda entering the system...

XO Miller says:
CO:  Here you go Captain.  ::hands her the glass::

CTO Senek says:
@::Covers and pulls out his phaser::

CNS Jordain says:
::stops in front of his office and thinks::

CSO Sketek says:
@AT: Wait for my order and then let's fire.

Host CO Kalla says:
XO: Thank you, commander.

Host Taskmaster says:
Action:  The Orions approach the Landing Party

XO Miller says:
CO:  You're welcome ma'am.  ::looks down to check communications with the AT::

CSO Sketek says:
@AT: Fire.

CSO Sketek says:
@::Fires at the followers::

CTO Senek says:
@::Fires at the closest Orion::

CNS Jordain says:
Self: Where did the amulet come from.....

Host Taskmaster says:
Action:  The Orions shapeshift into Wraiths and dive for cover

Host CO Kalla says:
::Drinks a bit of the water.::

FCO Durron says:
::looks at the his console and rubs his eyes than looks again:: XO: Sir if I am not mistaken We have just arrived in the system.

CSO Sketek says:
@CTO: Can our weapons do anything to wraiths?

XO Miller says:
CO:  I'm detecting weapons fire from the AT.I hope they're okay.

CNS Jordain says:
::enters his office and takes of the medallion and starts to study it::

FCO Durron says:
XO: Well us but not...::motions around the room:: not us.

EO Z’heta says:
::orders some EO's to proceed with the power allocation on the projector's systems::

CTO Senek says:
@CSO: Yes. Set your phaser on maximum.

Host CO Kalla says:
:::Raises an eyebrow.:: FCO: Explain.

Host Taskmaster says:
Action:  The Starship Andromeda enters orbit

CSO Sketek says:
@CTO: I will. Thanks for advice.

XO Miller says:
FCO:  You want to clarify that for us?

Host CO Kalla says:
::Calls up sensor readings on her display.::

CTO Senek says:
@::Adjusts his phaser:: CSO: You'd better inform the ship. ::Keeps firing::

FCO Durron says:
CO: Yes Ma'am.  A vessel that appears to be the Andromeda ::puts it on screen:: has just entered orbit.

CTO Senek says:
@Taskmaster: I don't know about your weapons, but they'd better be quite powerful to harm the Wraiths.

Host CO Kalla says:
::Looks at the screen, then remembers.:: XO/FCO: This is not good.

CSO Sketek says:
@*Andromeda*: This is LtCmdr. Sketek. We are under attack. At the moment we think we can handle the situation but be prepared for emergency beamout in case things get worse.

Host Taskmaster says:
Action:  The Wraiths dodge and weave amongst the phaser fire like the shadows they are

XO Miller says:
::stands up and looks at the screen::

Host CO Kalla says:
FCO: Hail the other Andromeda.

XO Miller says:
*CSO*:  Understood.  FCO:  Be prepared to beam them out of there.

CNS Jordain says:
::looks at one of the passages on the amulet....and translates it::  Self: Dar..kness to .....all ...evel..doers.    Darkness to all evildoers.

Host CO Kalla says:
::Remains seated while checking sensor readings. The other ship is the exact match of the Andromeda.::

XO Miller says:
*CNS*:  Report to the bridge.

CSO Sketek says:
@*Andromeda*: They seem to be wraiths.

FCO Durron says:
CO: Yes Ma'am ::begins automated hales of the other Andromeda::

Host CO Kalla says:
XO/FCO: This may be a Wraith copy of the ship. ::Remembers when her dark alter ego invaded the Andromeda.::

XO Miller says:
CO:  Are you sure we should hail them?

CSO Sketek says:
@CTO: I think we need another approach right now. We can't beat them in long range shooting.

CNS Jordain says:
*XO* Aye sir, on my way  ::takes the amulet and runs out to the TL::   TL: Bridge

CTO Senek says:
@AT: We need to get to a more open area so that they can't surprise us.

Host CO Kalla says:
FCO: Come to think of it, no we should not.

Host CO Kalla says:
XO: Thank you.

XO Miller says:
CO:  We could give away our position.

FCO Durron says:
*AT* Andromeda to away team. Acknowledged.

FCO Durron says:
::cancels the hales::

Host Taskmaster says:
Action:  The people on the street flee from the phaser fire

CTO Senek says:
@CSO: It's better than close combat.

CSO Sketek says:
@CTO: That's a huge risk, but do we have any other choice?

Host CO Kalla says:
FCO: Monitor their comm frequencies, discretely.

CNS Jordain says:
::Exits TL on the bridge:: XO: Yes sir, your orders

CTO Senek says:
@CSO: Beamout, of course, but that would accomplish nothing.

EO Z’heta says:
::burns some power relays due to a flaw use of the Black Hole power.::  Self: Dang

CSO Sketek says:
@CTO: We could put one to delay and distract them while two others run for the target.

XO Miller says:
CNS:  We have just encountered the Andromeda.  Can you detect anything?

FCO Durron says:
CO: acnolaged Ma'am.  ::checks console:: Ma'am they would appear to be communicating with the sunrise Ma'am.

Host Taskmaster says:
Action:  A closer scan of the ship reveals the following "ISS Andromeda-Terran Empire"

CTO Senek says:
@CSO: I think we should stay together.

Host CO Kalla says:
::Checks the scans.:: XO/FCO: It seems it is our alter ego from an alternate timeline.

[Trish:#ACTDShipMissions2 AWAY] cookin dinner!

XO Miller says:
CO:  Great, that's all we need.

CNS Jordain says:
XO: Sorry sir but I'm not telepathic you see, but i have some info on the amulet.

Host CO Kalla says:
::Tries to remember that timeline.::

XO Miller says:
CNS:  Understood.  What information can you tell us?

Host Taskmaster says:
Action:  The Wraiths move in on the away team, looking to take them prisioner

CSO Sketek says:
@CTO: Let's try to retreat and shoot back while we're going there.

FCO Durron says:
::looks at his console and fiddles with something::

CSO Sketek says:
@::Leaves the position::

Host CO Kalla says:
::Stands up.:: XO: We had better warn the away team about possible copies of us. Maybe we should agree on a password to make sure no misunderstandings occur.

CTO Senek says:
@CSO: Agreed. ::Gets out of the cover and tries to advance::

CNS Jordain says:
XO: I translated one passage of the text and it says" Darkness to all evildoers"  ::feels a bit light in the head and starts to loose balance::

Host Taskmaster says:
Action:  Raven appears and begins to give the Wraiths orders

Host CO Kalla says:
FCO: Can we monitor their communications?.

FCO Durron says:
CO: Probably unless they encrypted it ma'am.

Host CO Kalla says:
::Notices CNS.:: CNS: Are you all right?

XO Miller says:
CO:  Agreed.  Can you make any sense from what thattext means?

Host CO Kalla says:
FCO: Try it anyway.

CSO Sketek says:
@::Runs::

Host CO Kalla says:
XO: Well, the medallion was given to me by the Lumina, maybe it is their motto.

CSO Sketek says:
@AT: I think that we got rid of them... for now.

FCO Durron says:
:: begins working  on intercepting communications between the sunrise and ISS Andromeda::

CSO Sketek says:
@AT: Now let's hurry to the target.

CNS Jordain says:
CO: I don't know  ::his knees give in and he falls to the ground::

CTO Senek says:
@CSO: We need to continue with our mission.

Host CO Kalla says:
::Hurries over to the CNS to check him over.::

EO Z’heta says:
::notices that the nanite systems seem to be malfunctioning::

XO Miller says:
*AT*:  There is a possibility of possible copies of the crew of the Andromeda.  To make sure there is no mistake, we will use the term "fight for the light" as a password.

CTO Senek says:
@CSO: Scan for the Nanites. I'll try to keep track of the Wraiths.

Host CO Kalla says:
CNS: What is wrong?

Host Raven says:
Action:  The Amulet falls to floor from the CNS' neck

CSO Sketek says:
@CTO: Agreed. ::Checking for the right direction to the nanite signatures::

XO Miller says:
::goes over to the CO and CNS::

EO Z’heta says:
EO_1 : Leave the weapons adjustments for the time being and focus on those nanite systems

Host CO Kalla says:
::Picks up the amulet.::

CNS Jordain says:
CO: I do sense something, this area has more people who are not native to this universe in a one planet area

EO Z’heta says:
<EO_1>   EO: Yes, Lt.

CTO Senek says:
@*Andromeda*: Acknowledged. We just escaped the Wraiths. It seemed that they were commanded by Raven.

Host CO Kalla says:
::Remembers something.:: XO: I remember the Lumina telling me to rub the amulet if we were ever in trouble. I suppose this qualifies.

FCO Durron says:
::looks at the CO than the XO than back to the CO:: CO: It would appear that the Sunrise and ISS Andromeda are plotting against Red Gemini Ma'am.

XO Miller says:
CO:  I'd definitely agree with you Captain.

Host CO Kalla says:
CNS: Yes, that fits. We have a copy of ourselves from another timeline here.

CTO Senek says:
@::Takes his tricorder and tries to monitor Wraithactivity nearby::

Host CO Kalla says:
FCO: So our enemies seem to be plotting against each other.

CSO Sketek says:
@CTO: There's a shuttlecraft near the shed there. ::Points:: I think that we should check it out. I'll make some scans.

Host CO Kalla says:
XO: Agreed. ::Rubs the amulet between her hands.::

CTO Senek says:
@CSO: Aye.

Host Raven says:
::looks for the away team:: Aloud: Andromeda crew is here, hmm this is getting more complicated

FCO Durron says:
CO: Yes Ma'am It would appear so.  ::returns to his console::

CTO Senek says:
@::Heads for the shed::

EO Z’heta says:
*XO* Commander, the nanite systems are malfunctioning... some of them are already shutting down...

Host CO Kalla says:
::Stands up.:: CNS: You had better go to sickbay to have a check-up.

CNS Jordain says:
CO: I also agree with you Captain  ::is trying to get up::

Host Raven says:
Action:  Law the Leader of the Lumina appears on the Bridge, his angelic wings of light drift lazily around

XO Miller says:
*EO*:  Any way to know what is happening to them?

CSO Sketek says:
@::Goes for the shuttle while looking at the tricorder::

Host CO Kalla says:
::Reaches a hand down and pulls CNS Jordain to his feet.::

XO Miller says:
::looks up as he sees Law appear on the bridge::

Host CO Kalla says:
::Turns around and sees Law.:: Law: Welcome my friend.

CTO Senek says:
@::Stands near the shuttle, looking at his tricorder for signs of Wraiths::

EO Z’heta says:
*XO* We've been unable to determine the causes...  We're working on it, Sir.  I fear that the Black Hole power source may not last for long...

CNS Jordain says:
CO: I think I'll be alright just need some rest that’s all. I'll sit down for a moment and I’ll be better. ::takes the captains hand:: Thanks Ma'am

CSO Sketek says:
@AT: It says ISS Andromeda. I wonder if this shuttle had any crew, and if it had, who they were.

Host Raven says:
<Law>  Kalla: Good to see you, I assume this is not a social call because of the Wraith taint in the air

CTO Senek says:
@::Turns to the shuttle:: CSO: We'd better see what it looks like from the inside.

XO Miller says:
*EO*:  Acknowledged.  Just do you best at fixing the problem.

Host CO Kalla says:
Law: Quite right. We seem to have come across Raven again.

CSO Sketek says:
@CTO: Indeed. ::Goes to take a close look on the shuttle remains::

FCO Durron says:
::looks at law and than returns back to what he was doing::

Host Raven says:
<Law>  Kalla: How can I help the brave souls of the Federation? ::hovers in midair in dazzling white::

EO Z’heta says:
::runs some diagnostics and checks the sensor logs for cross reference::

CNS Jordain says:
::walks to his chair on the bridge and sits down::

XO Miller says:
Law:  Is there anything you can tell us to help shed some light on what is happening here?

XO Miller says:
::goes over and hands the CNS a glass of water::  CNS:  Here you go counsellor, this might help.

EO Z’heta says:
*XO* Beings from another dimension are making an interference by creating a feedback.  That's why the nanite systems are failing

CTO Senek says:
@::Tries to open the shuttle door::

CNS Jordain says:
XO: Thanks sir, may I ask a question?

CSO Sketek says:
@CTO: It's a shuttle of the Terran empire. Carrying one person if my assumptions are right.

XO Miller says:
*EO*:  Can you compensate for the interference?

XO Miller says:
CNS:  Of course.

Host Raven says:
<Law>  ::takes a moment to commune with the universe:: XO: It appears that there is a device here which many beings are interested in

Host CO Kalla says:
Law: We are on our way to find a renegade faction of rebels from both this universe and another, and now we have also detected Wraith presence, they have even made the amulet glow for a short while.

CSO Sketek says:
@*Andromeda*: We have found a crashed shuttle called from ISS Andromeda. It belongs to Terran empire. It was carrying one person if my assumptions are right.

CTO Senek says:
@CSO: This is getting more complicated than we thought.. first a weird nanite culture, then Wraiths and Raven and now the Terran empire.

CSO Sketek says:
@::Tries to track where the person went::

CNS Jordain says:
XO: Can you ask Law to translate all the text on the amulet. It also may tell something.

XO Miller says:
Law:  The Andromeda being one of them.

FCO Durron says:
XO: the Away team reports finding a shuttle craft from the ISS Andromeda Sir.

EO Z’heta says:
*XO* I'll do my best, sir...  but this 6-dim devices are to advanced...  I think this is why they pick up the feedback from those other beings

Host CO Kalla says:
Law: Somehow we seem to have landed in the middle of a terrible time and spatial mess.

CTO Senek says:
@CSO: I think we should continue chasing the nanites. The device they have stolen seems to be of great interest to many.

Host CO Kalla says:
Law: And I just thought we should let you know about this.

Host CO Kalla says:
Law: And possibly ask if you can trace the source of the problem.

XO Miller says:
CNS:  Of course counsellor.  FCO:  Understood.

FCO Durron says:
*AT*Andromeda to away team.  Acknowledged.

XO Miller says:
Law:  Can you also give us more specifics as to the text on the amulet?

FCO Durron says:
*EO*: things may get dicey shortly.  Do we have propulsion?

Host Law says:
All: This is what I see  and the factions involved ,,,1) Terran Empire 2) Wraiths 3) Nanite Criminals 4)  Borg   these are the minions of darkness

EO Z’heta says:
*FCO* yes, for the time being, Sir

EO Z’heta says:
::tries to use a 6-dim energetic shield to protect the nanite devices but it gets teared a part::

XO Miller says:
*EO*:  Thank you, keep us informed of any changes.

CSO Sketek says:
@CTO: You are right. The shuttle isn't our main objective. ::Starts moving::

CTO Senek says:
@CSO: Keep tracking the nanites, I'll watch our backs.

Host CO Kalla says:
*EO* I don't suppose the nanites have any ideas how to keep it working?

CTO Senek says:
@::Keeps looking at his tricorder to find potential threats::

CNS Jordain says:
::drinks a bit of the water that the XO gave him::

Host CO Kalla says:
Law: Can you sense where the device is that so many want? And does it have anything to do with the space-time problem?

EO Z’heta says:
*XO* the presence of those other beings disrupts this space-time, particularly the more sensitive 6-dim devices that the nanites use.

FCO Durron says:
::notices the sudden changes in mass and begins correcting the orbit:: *EO*: what is going on with our mass?

Host Law says:
::drifts in midair:: All: If the device is destroyed or neutralized, the situation will likely diffuse....yes the Red Gemini have it

CTO Senek says:
@CSO: I'm detecting an underground base.. probably the Red Gemini. It's below an abandoned warehouse over there.

EO Z’heta says:
*XO* As we speak, the ship is already returning to her normal size, crew included!

Host CO Kalla says:
FCO: Prepare evasive manoeuvres, in case we regain our normal size.

XO Miller says:
CO:  We need to destroy that device....and fast.

Host CO Kalla says:
XO: Inform the away team. It seems to be up to them.

CSO Sketek says:
@CTO: I know that we have very little or none information but as the tactical officer, I'm asking your advice whether you think we can go there and manage to get back alive.

Host Law says:
<Nanite Engineers> ::desperately trying to compensate but unable too::

CTO Senek says:
@::Points to the direction and starts running to it:: CSO: We'd better hurry.

FCO Durron says:
CO: already on it Ma'am.  ::plots an evasive course::

CNS Jordain says:
::overhears the communication between the EO and the XO:: self: Dang, here we go again...

CSO Sketek says:
@::Runs after CTO:: CTO: I see you made your decision already.

Host CO Kalla says:
Law: Thank you my friend. I realise that this is not a situation, where you can help us directly.

XO Miller says:
FCO:  Can you get us somewhere close to cover, before we regain our size?

CTO Senek says:
@CSO: It's either we, the Borg, the Terran Empire, the Red Gemini or the Wraiths. I prefer us.

FCO Durron says:
XO: I'll try sir. but I doubt anything will be in transporter range.

Host Law says:
CO: If the Wraiths were to get the device we would have no choice but to invade , so I'd prefer to provide you with information

EO Z’heta says:
Nanite_Engineer: Your systems are particularly sensitive to this alien feedback! Please, focus on the Black-hole, for its integrity compromise may get us all killed.

XO Miller says:
*CSO*:  Sketek, you need to find and destroy the device that so many are searching for.

Host CO Kalla says:
Law: Believe me anything is welcome.

CNS Jordain says:
::puts the water away and stands up:: CO: Is there anything I can do at this moment Captain?

CSO Sketek says:
@*XO*: We understand the situation. We will do whatever is in our power to accomplish the objective.

Host Law says:
Action:  The Andromeda returns to normal size.....the Sunrise and the ISS Andromeda come about...

Host CO Kalla says:
CNS: Not as such. You may need to deal with any emotional problems when people start regaining their normal size.

Host CO Kalla says:
FCO: Red alert.

Host CO Kalla says:
XO: Arm all weapons.

CSO Sketek says:
@CTO: Can you detect the device anywhere in the house? Is the device there?

Host CO Kalla says:
XO: Alert the away team to our changed status.

FCO Durron says:
ALL on bridge: HERE WE GO!  ::puts the Andromeda into evasive manoeuvres and throws the button for the Red Alert.::

XO Miller says:
::nods::  CO:  Weapons armed and ready.

CTO Senek says:
@::Scans for the device::

Host CO Kalla says:
XO/FCO: Thank you.

CNS Jordain says:
CO: yes Ma'am ::looks at the viewscreen::

Host Law says:
Action:  The away team come upon the abandoned warehouse, Orion mercenaries are on guard

EO Z’heta says:
::Sees the nanite_engineer getting smaller and smaller... and then he's gone.  Checks the systems parameters and confirms that Andy is on her normal size::

Host CO Kalla says:
FCO: Try to hail the ISS Andromeda. Let's see who we are dealing with.

XO Miller says:
*CSO*:  Things have changed up here Sketek.  Seems we have become our normal size and have been detected.

FCO Durron says:
::Begins attempting a slingshot manoeuvre around the planet to the asteroid belt.::

CTO Senek says:
@::Stays out of sight of the guards:: CSO: Can you find any other entrance?

Host CO Kalla says:
XO: I still believe we should wait with running. It is important that we attract the attention from the away team.

CSO Sketek says:
@CTO: Okay, we have to attack. The only advantage we have is that they don't know that we're coming. Let's take advantage of it.

Host Law says:
Action:  Sunrise opens fire, near miss

FCO Durron says:
CO: Ma'am I will try but... ::taps in a command and accidentally hails the sunrise than changes it over to the ISS Andy.::

Host CO Kalla says:
FCO: Let's try to keep the planet between us and them

CTO Senek says:
@CSO: The device is four levels underground.

Host CO Kalla says:
XO: Prepare to return fire.

XO Miller says:
CO:  Ready on your word.

CTO Senek says:
@CSO: It appears that we need to engage the guards here.. AT: The initial strike needs to be the most powerful.

CSO Sketek says:
@CTO: How many guards there are, approximately?

CSO Sketek says:
@CTO: Actually that's irrelevant.

CSO Sketek says:
@CTO: Do we have any grenades?

Host CO Kalla says:
COM: ISS Andromeda: This is Captain Kalla of the USS Andromeda, please respond.

CNS Jordain says:
::sits himself down again::

Host CO Kalla says:
XO: I hope this is the previous version of us. I seem to remember the captain and senior crew were fairly reasonable.

CTO Senek says:
@CSO: No heavy weapons.

FCO Durron says:
ALL: May I recomend you sit down.

EO Z’heta says:
::checks to see if the singularity know as black hole is contained.  Finds it to be gone and prepares the core for the Warp reaction::

XO Miller says:
CO:  Let's hope so.

CTO Senek says:
@CSO: There are no more guards than those we already saw.. just aim carefully and move quickly.

CSO Sketek says:
@CTO: Understood.

CTO Senek says:
@AT: Aim. Fire on my mark.

CSO Sketek says:
@CTO: Let's take good positions and then open fire.

CTO Senek says:
@::Covers and aims at one of the mercenaries::

CSO Sketek says:
@CTO: Ready to fire at your mark.

EO Z’heta says:
*XO* All the nanite tech is offline, Sir.  I'll try to get our warp core back on ASAP, but for the time being I would recommend to save energy.

CTO Senek says:
@AT: Fire. ::Fires at the mercenary::

CSO Sketek says:
@::Shoots at a guard::

CTO Senek says:
<Taskmaster> @::Fires at the third guard::

XO Miller says:
*EO*:  Acknowledged.  Let me know as soon as the warp core is back online.

Host CO Kalla I.S.S. Andy says:
COM Andromeda. Who are you. Get away impostors.

Host Law says:
Action:  With the element of surprise, the away team stuns the guards and advance unnoticed

FCO Durron says:
::continues evasive manoeuvres swinging the Andy hard to starboard than bringing her back to port and than puts her into the slingshot manoeuvre.::

Host CO Kalla says:
::Raises an eyebrow to XO.:: XO: Well at least we made contact.

CTO Senek says:
@AT: Move! We have no time to waste.

CSO Sketek says:
@All: Run inside! Quick!

EO Z’heta says:
::replaces the Dilithium crystal while another EO team adjust the matter / anti-matter injectors::

CSO Sketek says:
@::Runs as fast as he can::

CTO Senek says:
@::Proceeds to the entrance and goes inside the warehouse::

FCO Durron says:
::didn't hear the EO::

Host CO Kalla I.S.S. Andy says:
COM: USS Andromeda. Get away. The technology is ours. We don't have to share with anyone.

XO Miller says:
CO:  Doesn't sound like they are going to be reasonable.

CSO Sketek says:
@CTO: Lots of computer terminals... let's ignore them as long as we don't run into any locked doors or hatches.

CTO Senek says:
@CSO: Try to figure out which one of these elevators leads to the floor where the device is being held.

Host CO Kalla says:
COM: ISS Andromeda: We are not after any technology. We are trying to solve a problem with the space-time relationship.

CTO Senek says:
@::Looks out for any more guards::

Host Law says:
Action:  The ISS Andromeda and Sunrise enter an attack formation

Host CO Kalla says:
XO: No, obviously not.

EO Z’heta says:
::raises a containment field and readjusts the power nodes for rerouting energy from the Warp core::

Host CO Kalla I.S.S. Andy says:
COM USS Andromeda. Go away NOW. Or we will open fire. This is your last warning.

CSO Sketek says:
@CTO: I think Taskmaster knows these computers better. Taskmaster: Try to find the correct route.

CNS Jordain says:
CO: Captain, If i was you, i would be very careful. This is only my advice.

Host CO Kalla says:
XO: You had better prepare the away team we may have to leave in a hurry.

XO Miller says:
CO:  Captain, the Andromeda and Sunrise are preparing for attack.

Host CO Kalla says:
CNS: I tend to agree.

Host CO Kalla says:
CNS: I assume you also get the impression they mean what the say.

FCO Durron says:
::looks at the captain waiting for a course of action::

Host Law says:
Action:  Taskmaster plugs in and rewrites the operating system........shuts off the power to the base and activates an elevator

Host CO Kalla I.S.S. Andy says:
::Turns around.:: CTO: Prepare to open fire, centurion.

XO Miller says:
CO:  Understood.

CNS Jordain says:
CO: If they both attack we have no chance. Yes Captain, They mean what they say.

CTO Senek says:
@Taskmaster: Good work. ::Gets to the elevator::

EO Z’heta says:
::adjusts the anti-matter flux and watches the core as it ignites with beautiful plasma colours:: Self:YAY!!

Host CO Kalla says:
FCO: Plot in the evasive course.

CSO Sketek says:
@::Goes for the elevator::

CNS Jordain says:
Self: Centurion??

FCO Durron says:
CO: yes ma'am... would you prefer a slightly more...offensive one ma'am?

CSO Sketek says:
@::Tries to get the elevator moving::

Host CO Kalla says:
FCO: Prepare both. XO: See what the away team says. If they want back, it had better be now.

EO Z’heta says:
*XO* The core is back on, Sir!  It is supplying the ship with power, but it will take a few minutes before you can take her to warp.

Host CO Kalla I.S.S. Andy says:
CTO: Fire at those impostors.

Host Law says:
<Taskmaster> CSO: After you

XO Miller says:
CO:  Yes ma'am.  *CSO*:  What is your current status?

CTO Senek says:
@AT: We should act quickly, before they can get their reactors back online.

FCO Durron says:
::swings the ship upward:: self quietly: wahoo.

XO Miller says:
::targets the ISS Andy's weapons system::

Host CO Kalla I.S.S. Andy says:
COM: Sunrise. Fire at the other Andromeda. They are some sort of impostors here to steal our technology.

CSO Sketek says:
@*XO*: We are very near in accomplishing the objective. We request that you will stay patient for a few more minutes.

Host CO Kalla I.S.S. Andy says:
<Centurion T'Bang>CO: Yes, Ma'am. ::Fires a volley across the Andy's bows.::

CTO Senek says:
@::Waits for the elevator to arrive at the fourth floor, keeps his phaser ready::

XO Miller says:
*CSO*:  We will try to keep them occupied for a while longer.  You must hurry if we are to get you out of there.

Host CO Kalla says:
XO: Return fire.

CSO Sketek says:
@*XO*: Understood. Sketek out.

XO Miller says:
CO:  Yes ma'am!  ::fires at the ISS Andromeda::

FCO Durron says:
::slides the Andromeda to the port still travelling perpendicular to the other Andromeda::

CNS Jordain says:
CO: I think i don't have to say anything about that one ::holds his chair so he will not fall::

Host Law says:
Action:  The USS Andromeda violently shakes as the shields light up......nanite damage control units race to fix damage

Host CO Kalla I.S.S. Andy says:
Helm: Engage cloak and break connection.

Host CO Kalla I.S.S. Andy says:
::The cloak is engaged.::

EO Z’heta says:
::checks to see if everything is back on normal parameters::

XO Miller says:
CO:  Shields holding Captain.  The ISS Andromeda has just cloaked.

CSO Sketek says:
@CTO: We got to level 2. Now just two more levels.

CNS Jordain says:
CO: Ma'am, I have that strange feeling again!

Host CO Kalla I.S.S. Andy says:

@AT: Doesn't this thing get deeper? Ok, let's move on

CTO Senek says:
<.>

Host Law says:
Action:  The away team comes to an empty room with the jump drive floating in an antimatter forcefield

Host CO Kalla says:
XO: What did the away team say?

FCO Durron says:
::Swings the ship to face exactly the opposite direction and guns it::

XO Miller says:
CO:  They need just a couple more minutes.

CSO Sketek says:
@CTO: That's it. Now we just have to disable the forcefield.

CTO Senek says:
@::Sees the jump drive and the force field::

Host CO Kalla I.S.S. Andy says:
::The ISS comes about and comes at the

Host CO Kalla I.S.S. Andy says:
::The ISS comes about and comes at the Andy from the top.::

CTO Senek says:
@Taskmaster: Any ideas?

CSO Sketek says:
@CTO/Taskmaster: Give me a hand with these configurations. ::Goes for a terminal::

Host CO Kalla I.S.S. Andy says:
::ISS Andromeda fires two volleys at the USS Andromeda.::

CTO Senek says:
@::Goes for a terminal, to help CSO::

Host Law says:
<Taskmaster> CSO: An antimatter forcefield is tricky

CNS Jordain says:
XO: I think we don't have a few min if we don't act fast

Host CO Kalla says:
XO: Well, we had better take it then.

FCO Durron says:
::spots the incoming fire and tries to evade::

Host CO Kalla says:
*EO* Prepare for emergency repairs.

CSO Sketek says:
@Taskmaster: Do we have any realistic chances to disable it?

XO Miller says:
::targets where the weapons fire is coming from and fires back::

Host Law says:
Action:  As the starship dogfight in mortal combat the away team ponders...

EO Z’heta says:
*CO* Yes, Captain.

FCO Durron says:
::spins the Andromeda hard to her port::

XO Miller says:
*CSO*:  We can't hold them off that much longer.

Host CO Kalla I.S.S. Andy says:
COMM Sunrise: Attack from the other side.

CSO Sketek says:
@*XO*: We are almost there...

CTO Senek says:
@::Tries to access the force field controls::

Host CO Kalla says:
::Is thrown to the floor by the manoeuvre.::

XO Miller says:
*CSO*:  Two more minutes and then we are bringing you back.

Host Law says:
@<Taskmaster> CSO: I will sacrifice myself for the mission........Action:  Taskmaster draws the antimatter field into his body...and dies

CNS Jordain says:
::stands up to help the CO::  CO: Are you alright Ma'am?

Host CO Kalla says:
::Gets up on an elbow.:: XO: Fine.

XO Miller says:
FCO:  Prepare to beam the AT back on my word.

CSO Sketek says:
@*Andromeda*: Two to beam up.

Host CO Kalla says:
CNS: Thank you. ::Gets up and sits in her chair as she should have done right away.::

XO Miller says:
FCO:  Now Mr. Durron.

CTO Senek says:
@::Prepares for beamout::

Host CO Kalla I.S.S. Andy says:
COM Sunrise: Attack on my command.

Host CO Kalla I.S.S. Andy says:
Helm: Stay very close.

XO Miller says:
*EO*:  Warp drive back online?

FCO Durron says:
XO: got it :: stabilizes the ship and drops shields than engages the beam out::

Host CO Kalla I.S.S. Andy says:
Com Sunrise/CTO: Fire.

CNS Jordain says:
::sits himself back::

Host CO Kalla says:
::Sees fire erupt from two sides.::

EO Z’heta says:
*XO* yes, Commander, the ships systems are back on standard levels.

XO Miller says:
FCO:  Get us out of here now!

Host Law says:
Action:  The Away Team beams safely back onto the ship ....the FCO slingshots the Andromeda around the planet and out of the fire arc of the pursuing ships

CSO Sketek says:
*CO*: We got the device.

Host CO Kalla I.S.S. Andy says:
::Sees fire come from the opposite ship.:: Helm: Evasive manoeuvres.

EO Z’heta says:
::Notices that the Emergency field generators were offline as a power safe procedure and puts them back OnLine::

Host CO Kalla says:
*CSO* Good work, Commander.

CSO Sketek says:
::Leaves the transporter room and heads for the bridge::

FCO Durron says:
::reactivates shields and punches it:: ALL : hold on.

FCO Durron says:
*EO* do we have warp?

CTO Senek says:
::Follows CSO to the bridge::

Host CO Kalla I.S.S. Andy says:
::Sees the Andromeda vanish.:: All: You will pay for this. ::The ships are hit by each others fire.::

XO Miller says:
CO:  Sensors are detecting that the weapons fire that were meant for us, are heading directly at the ISS Andromeda.

Host CO Kalla says:
XO/FCO: Excellent work, gentlemen.

Host CO Kalla says:
XO: Well, I'll not interfere.

Host Admiral Starborne says:
Action:  The Andromeda enters warp space and clears the distortion field....the nanites engage the ID drive and return to nanite space

EO Z’heta says:
*FCO* Yes, Ray, we have. I already informed the XO of this.

FCO Durron says:
*EO*: oh...thank you.

CSO Sketek says:
::Arrives at the bridge:: All: We got back in one piece alive and healthy. However Taskmaster didn't. He sacrificed himself in order to save us. It's rare to see such nobility and I hope peace for his soul wherever he is.

EO Z’heta says:
*FCO* ME out ::taps the commbadge::

Host CO Kalla says:
::Gets up and walks to CSO.:: CSO: Good work, commander. Sorry to hear about Taskmaster.

Host Admiral Starborne says:
::looks sad:: CO: He was a brave soul

CTO Senek says:
::Stands next to CSO::

CNS Jordain says:
CSO: I'll say a prayer for his soul

Host CO Kalla says:
Admiral: Yes, we honour his memory.

XO Miller says:
CSO/CTO:  It's good to see you both back in one piece.  The taskmaster was very brave.

CTO: Welcome back, too. You have both done well.

Host Admiral Starborne says:
All: Mission accomplished we have succeeded and prevented certain disaster

Host CO Kalla says:
::Rubs a sore spot on her shoulder.:: Admiral: Good.

FCO Durron says:
::looks at the captain:: Sorry Ma'am.

Host CO Kalla says:
FCO: No worries, you did very well.

XO Miller says:
CO:  Damage seems to be at a minimum Captain.

FCO Durron says:
::looks at his console and returns the inertial dampers to normal::

Host CO Kalla says:
::Raises an eyebrow, wondering if that was human humour.:: XO: Indeed.

XO Miller says:
FCO:  I agree, you did an excellent job Ray.

CSO Sketek says:
::Takes the science console::

Host CO Kalla says:
Law: Is this the device in question?

FCO Durron says:
CO/XO: Thank you Ma'am, ::nods to the captain:: Sir ::nods to the XO and returns to his work::

XO Miller says:
::looks back at the Captain::  CO:  No pun intended ma'am.  ::grins::

Host CO Kalla says:
CNS: No I believe we are now over the worst. Thank you for your assistance, Mr Jordain.

XO Miller says:
::looks over at the counsellor::  CNS:  Thank you counsellor.

Host Admiral Starborne says:
<Law> CO: Yes that it the device, I see the nanites have deactivated it

Host CO Kalla says:
Law: So again we succeed. Thank you for your support and advice, my friend.

CNS Jordain says:
CO: just doing my job Ma'am. But if you need me I'll be in my quarters have some rest before I fall down again ::nods and walks to the TL::  TL: Counsellors Office

FCO Durron says:
::looks around:: CO: Ma'am... where do you want to go?  Ma'am.

Host Admiral Starborne says:
<Law> ::nods.......Resurrects Taskmaster...grins and fades away::

Host Admiral Starborne says:
Action:  The Andromeda is returned to Federation Space

Host CO Kalla says:
FCO: ::Sees the altered star chart.:: Back to starbase 50. To find a good explanation for all this.

CNS Jordain says:
::exits the TL and enters his quarters. Drops into his bed and falls asleep fast::

XO Miller says:
CO:  Do you think there is a good explanation for all of this?

CSO Sketek says:
::Looks at the sensors and sees the familiar star formations::

FCO Durron says:
CO: acknowledged Ma'am  ::sets in the course and engages at warp 5::

Host CO Kalla says:
XO: Do you mean officially or between us here?

CTO Senek says:
::Is glad to be back, but hopes to see the nanites and especially Taskmaster again some day::

EO Z’heta says:
::sees that things are "normal" again and notices that his shift ended a long time ago::  EO_1: ME is yours.

XO Miller says:
::chuckles::  CO:  Well, I guess both.

Host CO Kalla says:
XO: Let me rephrase. Not find, but make a good explanation.

EO Z’heta says:
*CNS* Counsellor, do you have a moment? this is not an official request... would you care to meet me on the Crew Lounge?

Host Admiral Starborne says:
End USS Andromeda "Shakedown"
