OPS_Danforth says:
CO: Sir?  Are you okay?
CNS_Savar says:
@MO: Doctor, are you there?  SO: Ensign?
OPS_Danforth says:
::helping the CO up::
Host CO_Morgan says:
::gets up off the TR floor, and thanks TR chief profusely:: OPS:  Yep, nothing broken, how bout you?
CSO_Vekh says:
@ <Ens.Jones> COMM: Dagger: Lt. Vekh, great to have you back sir. Permission to dock granted. We have quite a situation here, sir.
CTO_Matt says:
*AXO*:  Aye, Sir.......<transporter chief>:  Beam us down.
AXO_JJ says:
COMM: Dagger: CSO: Vekh... I'm glad to hear from you... there was an accident on the surface, I'm having shuttle control clear for you... get up to the Bridge
SO_Washudoin says:
@CNS: I'm here
OPS_Danforth says:
CO: Much better than I was three seconds ago.
CTO_Matt says:
::beams down from the Hornet::
MO_Calahan says:
@CNS: Sir....I'm pinned....and....I can't breathe well.....hurt pretty...bad.
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
::Tries to pick up a tricorder but his cast gets in the way:: Self: Stupid thing ::Grabs a laser scalpel and starts to cut away at the cast....being careful not to injure himself in the process::
CSO_Vekh says:
#COMM: Hornet: Roger that, ensign. Docking now.
CNS_Savar says:
@MO: Acceptable. SO: Check a tricorder...can we get out of here? Is there anything you can tell us?
SO_Washudoin says:
@CNS/MO: We need to get out of here and help these people
Host CO_Morgan says:
*AXO*:  Claymore, thanks for the pickup, I am on my way to the bridge, get working on sensors to find the Oxen Blade and the crew that's down below.
CNS_Savar says:
@MO: Someone will try to get to you as soon as possible.
CSO_Vekh says:
#::shuttle Dagger docks smoothly, with her painting unscratched::
SO_Washudoin says:
@CNS: The air is running out fairly quickly
Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The Hornet AT beams to the edge of the abyss
Host CO_Morgan says:
::heads for the TL after motioning for Danforth to accompany him::
OPS_Danforth says:
::follows CO to the TL::
AXO_JJ says:
*CO*: Sir, I'm surprised to hear from you... I'm glad your out. Vekh is docking but I'll start on the search.
AXO_JJ says:
::gets up from Conn. and heads for Science::
SO_Washudoin says:
@CNS: I'm going to try to help MO
CTO_Matt says:
@::sees how close the transporter chief teleported us to the edge of some kind of abyss and will have to discuss locations with her later::
OPS_Danforth says:
CO: I hope everyone's doing alright down there.  They can't have much air left.
CSO_Vekh says:
::hurries to catch up with the rest of the crew, still on civilian clothing::
MO_Calahan says:
@CNS: No, get the SO out first....I.....will live.
CNS_Savar says:
@SO/MO: Can either of you stand up?  Get out from under the rubble?  ::Starts digging self out, getting half way there::
EO_McDuggle says:
@:: tries transporting the AT back to the runabout::
CTO_Matt says:
@::looks around, not seeing the runabout and looks for signs of life::
SO_Washudoin says:
@CNS: I'm almost out
Host CO_Morgan says:
OPS:  I know, get to OPS and see if we can jack up the power to the transporters to beam them out.
AXO_JJ says:
::finds the sinkhole where the Runabout was.... looks for how deep the runabout went::
Host CO_Morgan says:
::enters TL:: TL: Bridge
OPS_Danforth says:
CO: Yes, sir!  ::arriving at the bridge and taking OPS station::
CSO_Vekh says:
::arrives at the Bridge:: AXO: Sir, Lt. Vekh reporting for duty ::at attention, in civilian bright blue clothing::
OPS_Danforth says:
Ensign Lackey:  Thank you, Ensign.  I'll take over from here.
CSO_Vekh says:
AXO: Sorry for the clothing sir. I had not the time to change over.
OPS_Danforth says:
::routing power to the transporters, attempting to boost the power by routing all non-essential power to them::
CNS_Savar says:
@::Operating purely on feel, removes all rocks from self and tries standing up, knocking head on ceiling::
AXO_JJ says:
::turns to see Vekh and gets up from the Science Station:: Vekh: Welcome aboard... take your station and continue search for the Runabout.... I've found it's latitude and longitude... now we need to find out deep it is
Host CO_Morgan says:
::steps out of bridge behind OPS:: AXO: Report, Mr. Claymore.
AXO_JJ says:
Vekh: No worry on the clothing... you're not the only one today
CNS_Savar says:
@MO/SO: Do either of you still have a tricorder or phaser ::feels own empty belt and wonders::
CTO_Matt says:
@::taps comm badge:: COMM: AXO:  Hornet, this is the AT.  We have beamed down next to some kind of abyss that seems to have just formed.  I can see the top of the Runabout, but, that is all.  I suggest beaming the Runabout up, in case there are people inside it.
EO_McDuggle says:
@COMM: Hornet: this is the runabout Oxen Blade do you read?
AXO_JJ says:
::Turns to the CO on the other side of the Bridge:: CO: Sir, CMO is in Sickbay preparing for casualties. ::hears the comm:: CTO is on the surface
CSO_Vekh says:
::takes over SCI and begins work from where the AXO left:: AXO: Thank you sir. I'm on it now.
Host CO_Morgan says:
AXO:  Do we have a lock on the Oxen Blade?
MO_Calahan says:
@CNS: There is a medical one....being stabbed into my chest every time I breathe. I had a phaser.....in.....my lab coat...pocket. I  don't know if its there.
Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The runabout's signal comes through to Hornet, but it is weak and with static.
CNS_Savar says:
@MO: can you reach it?
CNS_Savar says:
@MO: If you can open it, we will have a small source of light, albeit dim.
OPS_Danforth says:
COMM: Oxen Blade: EO: Ensign, I can read you but barely.  Can you boost your confinement beam?
CTO_Matt says:
@::signals to the rest of his team to spread out and search for survivors::
CSO_Vekh says:
AXO: Sir, I've got a signal from the runabout, but it's weak and filled with static
AXO_JJ says:
::hears some static coming over the comm line with CTO's message:: *CTO*: Hold on a second, we're working on that.
MO_Calahan says:
@::tries to move right arm:: CNS: I.....can....feel....it. But I can't get it out...
Host CO_Morgan says:
CSO:  The AT took a signal enhancer with them to the mine, see if you can lock onto the signal and locate our crew down there.
CNS_Savar says:
@MO: Can you talk easily and lead me to you?
AXO_JJ says:
CSO: try to reply... the CTO can see the top of the runabout that means anyone inside of it can just climb out
EO_McDuggle says:
COMM: Hornet: OPS: Sir am trying to now.
MO_Calahan says:
@CNS: I shall try....
OPS_Danforth says:
COMM: Oxen Blade: EO: Ensign, do you have any signal enhancers left on board the runabout?
MO_Calahan says:
@CNS: I'm over here, under rocks next....to...the wall...::draws in a sharp breath::
CNS_Savar says:
@::Following the Doctor's voice, Savar finds her, and gets to her tricorder, opening it and letting a little light into the room::
CSO_Vekh says:
CO: Aye, sir. Attempt to look on ::works on console:: COMM: Oxen Blade: McDuggle, do you copy me? Please respond.
OPS_Danforth says:
CO: Sir, I've got a weak signal coming from the runabout.
OPS_Danforth says:
CO: Ensign McDuggle is attempting to boost the confinement beam.
CSO_Vekh says:
::scan for the AT's signal enhancer::
EO_McDuggle says:
@COMM: Hornet: OPS: Yes, I do have one I sent the rest with the AT
Host CO_Morgan says:
OPS:  Coordinate with the XO to get either the Oxen Blade out or McDuggle off, which ever you can do first safely.
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
::Is watching the things happening on the bridge:: Self: Hmmm....::Taps his comm badge:: *AXO*: If we need the signal to be boosted...couldn't we move into the atmosphere and get closer to them....would that help us beam them up?
CNS_Savar says:
@::With the little light, sees the rocks pinning her and removes them::
MO_Calahan says:
@::closes eyes::
CTO_Matt says:
@COMM: Hornet: I am not sure how stable the area around this abyss is, but, I suggest that some survival gear and command tents be beamed down to set up a command post down here.
SO_Washudoin says:
@CNS: I will help you look for MO.
CSO_Vekh says:
::brings up seismological data on Arcadia IX on a secondary panel::
AXO_JJ says:
*CMO*: Good suggestion, if this was the Thomas, this ship may not attack so well in the atmosphere
Host CO_Morgan says:
OPS:  Does McDuggle still have contact with the AT in the mines?
OPS_Danforth says:
CO: Aye, sir.  AXO/CSO: He's got a signal enhancer.  If he uses it by himself, I think we can beam him up.  If he uses it for the runabout, it'll be more risky.
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
::Looks down at his arm and sees the scar that goes in a ring around the circumference:: *AXO*: Just putting in my point of view, sir...
OPS_Danforth says:
CO: I'll check sir.  COMM: Oxen Blade: EO: Ensign, have you had contact with anyone else on the away team?
CNS_Savar says:
@::With the little light available, finds a phaser and another tricorder::
AXO_JJ says:
*CMO*: But I think a lower orbit would be better ::goes to the conn:: CO: shall I go into a lower orbit?
CSO_Vekh says:
OPS: Danforth, you could try hardwire into LRS to enhance the COMM, since we are currently not using them
CNS_Savar says:
@::Throws tricorder to SO:: SO: Scan the cave walls and see which way is up and if/how we can get out.
Host CO_Morgan says:
AXO:  Take us as low as far as we can safely go.
AXO_JJ says:
OPS: We can get the runabout later... just get the people.
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
*AXO* If we can't beam them up to the ship...I'm no good down here...may I come up to the bridge?
EO_McDuggle says:
@COMM: Hornet: OPS: no sir I lost all contact after the cave in
SO_Washudoin says:
@::helps MO up and on to shoulder and cathodes tricorder::
OPS_Danforth says:
CSO: Good idea, thanks. ::boosting confinement beam using power from the LRS::
AXO_JJ says:
::turns to the console and begins typing instructions::
CSO_Vekh says:
CO: No success in contacting the AT, sir. Either we will have to take the ship into the atmosphere or there's the possibility the AT had not the opportunity to actually activate the enhancers.
OPS_Danforth says:
CO: Sir, the EO doesn't have contact with the AT.  I'm sure we could beam him out of the runabout, but beaming the entire runabout would be more tricky.
Host CO_Morgan says:
OPS:  Concentrate on getting McDuggle out, we'll recover the Oxen Blade later.
OPS_Danforth says:
CO: Aye, sir.
AXO_JJ says:
*CMO*: I don't know... we may be getting anyone up at any time... but you may want to come check on the ::whispers:: CO and OPS
Host CO_Morgan says:
CSO:  Understood.
SO_Washudoin says:
@::scans walls:: CNS: we may be able to move some rocks
Host CO_Morgan says:
ALL:  I'm open to suggestions gentlemen.
CSO_Vekh says:
CO: Sir, just as reminder, this ship is not as fit for atmospheric flight as the Thomas was.
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
*AXO* ON my way...... ::Grabs a medkit and heads to the bridge::
OPS_Danforth says:
COMM: Oxen Blade: EO: Ensign, if you activate the pattern enhancer, we'll beam you out.
MO_Calahan says:
@::starts to breath normal, but slowly::
AXO_JJ says:
::take the ship into a low orbit... almost skim the outer atmosphere of the planet::
CSO_Vekh says:
CO: Sir, if I may make a suggestion.
CNS_Savar says:
@::Scans the Doctor with the tricorder:: MO: Doctor, you have three broken ribs.  Breath gently.
CTO_Matt says:
@ COMM: Hornet: I also suggest sending down an engineering team with those supplies.  We may also need to get some supports and braces so the mines can be supported, as it appears all the mining equipment is in the abyss as well.
SO_Washudoin says:
@:: Hands O2 to CNS::
Host CO_Morgan says:
CSO: I am aware of that, thank you. ::thinks not for the last time, he wishes he had the Thomas back::
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
::Enters the TL::TL: Bridge...
Host CO_Morgan says:
CSO:  Suggest away.
MO_Calahan says:
@CNS:I could have told you that......is the hypo in the med kit still working?
CNS_Savar says:
@SO: How do we get out? Any way to phaser our way out? ::Reaches in the medkit::
EO_McDuggle says:
@COMM: Hornet: OPS: activating enhancer now
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
::walks on to the bridge and pulls out a medical tricorder::
OPS_Danforth says:
CO: Not sure, sir.  If they had breathing apparatus, I think we could flood the hole slowly, causing them to be able to swim out.  But I don't think anyone has any.
SO_Washudoin says:
@CNS: We could use the shield generator.....
CSO_Vekh says:
CO: Sir, we should check out if there's any drill machine still operational on the encampment and take it, dig a parallel tunnel running below the last know position of the AT and then reach them from below.
CNS_Savar says:
@::Scans hypospray with tricorder:: MO: Yes.  SO: Explain.
AXO_JJ says:
CO: we're as low as we can go without risking damage or permanent landing.
OPS_Danforth says:
COMM: Oxen Blade: EO: Prepare for beam out.
OPS_Danforth says:
::beaming EO up to the Hornet::
SO_Washudoin says:
@CNS: ...make a shield around us and maybe blast some of the rocks away,,
Host CO_Morgan says:
CSO:  What is the current seismic activity on the planet?  I'd rather not drill any more with a possibility of further collapse.
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
::Walks up to the CO and runs the tricorder over him::
CNS_Savar says:
@SO: Is the generator still in working condition?
EO_McDuggle says:
@::beams to Hornet::
AXO_JJ says:
CSO/CO: That might not be a good idea...the geological instabilities may cause another cave in.
MO_Calahan says:
@CNS: Okay. Give me something for this damn headache, will you?
SO_Washudoin says:
@CNS...that might cause more cave-ins
OPS_Danforth says:
CO: Sir, we retrieved the EO.
CNS_Savar says:
@::Programs hypo and injects Calahan::
Host CO_Morgan says:
OPS:  I don't think anyone would survive the operation of flooding the cave,  Have the EO report to the bridge after the Doctor clears him.
OPS_Danforth says:
CO: Aye, sir.
CSO_Vekh says:
CO: I'm currently uploading this information from the station, sir ::waits a bit:: CO: According to recorded data, current activity fits within normality.
SO_Washudoin says:
@CNS: It seems to be in working order little light though
OPS_Danforth says:
*EO*: Ensign McDuggle, please report to the bridge after receiving medical clearance.
MO_Calahan says:
@::sighs:: CNS: That's better. ::starts to sit up, and grabs side::
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
::Coughs so the CO will notice him standing right in front of him running some scans::
Host CO_Morgan says:
AXO:  Coordinate with the CTO to begin bracing the shaft.
AXO_JJ says:
COMM: CTO: Sorry it's taken so long... give me a few I'll be down ASAP
CSO_Vekh says:
CO: According to the Mining Facility's manifest, there are portable drills in the Main HQ, which is also the nearest facility on the planet from the encampment
EO_McDuggle says:
*OPS*: Yes Sir ::heads for sick bay to see doctor::
CNS_Savar says:
@MO: Doctor. You have broken ribs. Staying in a horizontal position would be preferable.
Host CO_Morgan says:
::turns at the CMO's cough:: CMO:  See you won't have long to wait for him to get here to be check out.
CTO_Matt says:
@COMM: AXO:  Aye, Sir.
AXO_JJ says:
::let's the relief officer take over conn. and then heads for the turbolift::
OPS_Danforth says:
CO: If the rocks have iron content, couldn't we turn the Hornet into a great big magnet and float the rocks out?
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
::Taps his commbadge:: *EO* I'm on the bridge...meet me in sickbay...::Leaves the bridge  and heads towards SB::
CSO_Vekh says:
CO: Sir, I think that under the current circumstances we should take the risk. In this case I volunteer myself to go.
MO_Calahan says:
@CNS: With all do respect sir, I have to see if there are any survivors. I have had worse injuries. ::stands up, and holds onto the wall::
Host CO_Morgan says:
OPS: Don't think they have enough iron ort in them, they're mining dilithium, not iron.
EO_McDuggle says:
*CMO* : already on my way Doc
MO_Calahan says:
@::holds out hand after a few moments:: CNS: Tricorder?
Host CO_Morgan says:
CSO:  Accompany the XO to the surface and see what you can do.
SO_Washudoin says:
@CNS: I do agree sir
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
::Enters sickbay and looks around for the EO::
CSO_Vekh says:
CO: Aye sir ::nods to the Captain and stands to follow the AXO::
CNS_Savar says:
@MO: Ensign.  Lay back down.  If you would look around, you would see that the three of us are the only ones here.  I can get no other life readings from the tricorder.  I would assume that they are dead.
EO_McDuggle says:
::arrives in sick bay just behind the doctor::
Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: McDuggle has sustained minor lacerations and is treated quickly.
CSO_Vekh says:
::enters the TL behind the Lt. Claymore, nodding to him::
AXO_JJ says:
::waits for the CSO:: TL: Shuttle bay.... *Shuttle Ops*: Have a runabout ready and load it with a Class 5 replicator we'll need it on the surface... have half load 563 loaded as well.
MO_Calahan says:
@CNS: Very well, but I refuse to lay down. I will sit against the wall, if I must.
EO_McDuggle says:
CMO: hi doc
CTO_Matt says:
@COMM: AXO: Sir, we are going to need climbing gear or anti grav boots to get down this abyss to find any survivors.
CNS_Savar says:
@::Gives MO a Vulcan equivalent of a sigh and gives in::
Host CO_Morgan says:
COMM: CTO:  How stable are things on the surface right now?
AXO_JJ says:
COMM: CTO: I'll have that beamed down ::TL stops::
MO_Calahan says:
@::sits down with a sharp breath::
CSO_Vekh says:
AXO: I got the coordinates for the Main Mining HQ, where we can get the portable drills ::shows AXO a Padd with the info::
CTO_Matt says:
@COMM: Hornet: CO: It seems stable right now, Sir.
EO_McDuggle says:
::heads for TL after being checked out:: TL: Bridge
CNS_Savar says:
@SO: How much air do we have?  And do we have any O2 in the tanks still?
AXO_JJ says:
*TR 1*: Have a container beamed down to the surface with antigrav boots and climbing equipment for the rescue teams
Host CO_Morgan says:
COMM: CTO: Possibility that we can use the phasers to bore a parallel shaft close to the cave in?
CTO_Matt says:
@::sends half his team to the mine to find the first AT and the miners::
SO_Washudoin says:
@CNS: there is a bit enough for 20-30 minutes
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
EO: Greetings...::Walks with the EO:: I see you have already been treated.....couldn't have done a better job myself....
MO_Calahan says:
@CNS: Over there...::points::
CNS_Savar says:
@SO: I will hope that is enough.
OPS_Danforth says:
::continues monitoring sensors and communications::
SO_Washudoin says:
@CNS: Further scans have found out there is way to much rubble for us to get through
CNS_Savar says:
@SO: Is there anyway to get a signal out?
AXO_JJ says:
::looks at padd:: CSO: Not the same old HQ I was at last time.... when we get to the runabout contact the workers there and have them put one of those drills on the landing pad will tractor it on our way to the accident site
EO_McDuggle says:
::arrives at Bridge and steps off TL:: CO: Sir
SO_Washudoin says:
@CNS: we do have the signal enhancer
SO_Washudoin says:
@CNS: I'll get right on it'
EO_McDuggle says:
::Heads for engineering console::
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
::Steps off after the EO::
CNS_Savar says:
@SO: Can we rig that with a couple commbadges and tricorders and get a message out?
OPS_Danforth says:
EO: Good to see you, Ensign.
AXO_JJ says:
::enters Shuttle bay and looks for the Runabout::
EO_McDuggle says:
OPS: good to see you to
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
::Takes out his tricorder and finishes his scans of the CO::
Host CO_Morgan says:
EO: Can we set up the phasers to a low power band to act as a sort of energy drill, without frying the trapped miners and our AT?
CSO_Vekh says:
AXO: Aye, sir. If I can say something about Orions, the former Command Center should have been reduced to less than rumble ::matter-of-factly::
SO_Washudoin says:
@CNS: I can give it a shot or two
Host CO_Morgan says:
::looks over at the CMO in slight annoyance:: CMO:  I'm fine doctor.
MO_Calahan says:
@::closes eyes and starts to relax::
EO_McDuggle says:
CO: Sir we can get close to the trapped miners but last few feet will have to be done by hand.
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
CO: Just doing my job ::Moves onto the operations officer::
OPS_Danforth says:
::without looking up:: CMO: And don't even think about coming over here, sir. ::hands still flying over the console::
Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The climbing gear appears by the CTO.
CTO_Matt says:
@::sees the equipment beaming in and sends the rest of his team to get ready to descend the abyss.  He grabs a pair of anti grav boots and puts them on::
AXO_JJ says:
::finds the runabout:: CSO: there ::points::
Host CO_Morgan says:
EO:  Understood, get to work on setting up the phasers.  If nothing else, maybe we can remove some of the overburden and get a clean transporter lock.
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
::Stays far enough away from OPS to get his scans but not to bother him....::
Host CO_Morgan says:
CMO:  Sorry I snapped, Doc, just worried about my crew.
OPS_Danforth says:
CO: If the EO can get us close, I'll FIND a way to beam them out.
EO_McDuggle says:
CO: yes Sir will get to work on it now
CSO_Vekh says:
::acknowledges the AXO and gets into the runabout, behind the FCO console::
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
CO: No need to apologize sir...these are some stressful times....
OPS_Danforth says:
::nods at the CMO for his consideration::
SO_Washudoin says:
@CNS: we can do it I just got to make one more little adjustment
CTO_Matt says:
@::sees the rest of his team ready and signals for them to descend down the abyss as he jumps into the abyss with the anti grav boots activated and descends slowly::
CNS_Savar says:
@SO: Don't wait when you get it hooked up.  Start transmitting immediately.
AXO_JJ says:
CSO: let's skip preflight ::activates Engines as the bay doors finish opening::
CSO_Vekh says:
::begins powering up and checking systems for departure:: AXO: All systems check green, sir. No pun intended, sir, after all Orions are not known for puns ::continues warming up::
SO_Washudoin says:
@CNS: sending transmission now ::pushes some buttons::
AXO_JJ says:
CSO: taking her out... contact the mining HQ ::heads out of the shuttle bay and angles to enter the atmosphere::
CSO_Vekh says:
AXO: Lifting off in T-5 secs, sir ::works furiously on console, overriding safeties::
CMO_Arman_Utoo says:
::Closes his tricorder and places it back in the med kit::
Host CO_Morgan says:
COMM: AXO:  We're setting up a low level power burst from the phasers, it should get you close to the cave in, but the remaining distance will have to be drilled by hand.
Host AGMDave says:
ACTION: The rigged communication gear sparks in front of the SO and goes dead.
MO_Calahan says:
@Self: Lovely....
CNS_Savar says:
@::Turns sharply at the sparks::
SO_Washudoin says:
@::shoot:: CNS/MO: I'll try this again
AXO_JJ says:
# CSO: lift off achieved, course is ready... engage
EO_McDuggle says:
OPS: Ensign if this works the way it's supposed to we should get to within 15 meters
AXO_JJ says:
# COMM: Hornet: CO: Understood sir
CTO_Matt says:
@::his entire team reaches the bottom of the abyss and he signals them to spread out to search for survivors as he heads for the runabout::
CSO_Vekh says:
#COMM: Mine HQ: This is CSO Vekh from Arcadia Station. We have a disaster situation in the encampment south of your position. I'm requesting the use of a pair of portable drills you have with you.
OPS_Danforth says:
EO: Thanks, Ensign...I'll do my best to make up the rest.
CTO_Matt says:
@::the other half of the security team reach the part of the cave in and starts working on the debris.
OPS_Danforth says:
::working on penetrating 15 meters of rock with a soaped up confinement beam::
Host CO_Morgan says:
EO:  How are those phasers coming?
CSO_Vekh says:
#<Mine HQ> COMM: Runabout: Yes, sir. How can we assist you?
AXO_JJ says:
#::goes out away from the Hornet, then does a 360* and angles down towards the planet at 35*::
EO_McDuggle says:
CO: Sir we are ready to try now
Host CO_Morgan says:
EO:  Good, fire the beam.
Host CO_Morgan says:
COMM: AXO:  Firing phaser now.
CSO_Vekh says:
# COMM: Mine HQ: Just get those drills on a landing platform and pack them. We'll be tractor them up on our flyby
EO_McDuggle says:
::Fires beam:: CO: Firing now sir
AXO_JJ says:
#::makes sure that the runabout isn't in the way of the fire::
OPS_Danforth says:
