Mission Summary: 10501.17

The station's senior staff was ordered to take command of the USS Dracona in order to investigate an anomaly that appeared to be a wormhole.  

Upon investigation, the crew discovered that the anomaly was unstable and appeared to open in different points of the system.  
 
As they approached, the wormhole closed, only to open up again around the Dracona.  The wormhole closed again trapping the Dracona inside.  Once inside, they detected a distress call, upon investigation, it was determined that it originated from the Defiant Class USS Trashura.
 
As the wormhole’s instability increased and the Dracona was forced down onto the surface on an unknown planet.  After determining that they were 150 years in the past, they found that the Trashura was also on the same planet.
 
The crew is now trying to find a way off the planet as well as a way to rescue the Trashura's crew.

OPS_Walker says:
::at OPS station at the front of the bridge (left seat)::

CTO_Mahl says:
::still at tactical::

CTO_Mahl says:
CO: Still waiting for a response from the Trashura, Sir.

CO_Regnum says:
COM: Trashura: I repeat, this is Captain Regnum of the Dracona, do you read me?

CMO_Burton says:
::Checking supplies and equipment in sickbay::

FCO_Jankara says:
::heads the Dracona over to the Trashura's location::

CTO_Mahl says:
::Monitors the COM frequency, waiting for a response::

OPS_Walker says:
CO:  They are receiving, sir... I can confirm that...but I can't read any sign they can transmit...I may need to tap the internal comms and do this old-school.

CTO_Mahl says:
CO: Channel is wide open, Sir.  No response.

OPS_Walker says:
CO:  You want me to try sir?
CO_Regnum says:
OPS: By all means, let's see if we can start up a conversation

OPS_Walker says:
CO:  Aye, sir.  This might take a few minutes.  ::opens a terminal window and starts keying commands::

CIV_Bodine says:
::in the Officer's Mess sipping on a Coffee while he looks out the Port Hole::

OPS_Walker says:
CO:  Ready for the command codes sir.  It'll still take me a minute to tap into their comm frequencies.

CO_Regnum says:
CTO: See if you can get a sensor read on the Trashura, is there breathable atmosphere on her?

CTO_Mahl says:
CO: Scanning now, Sir.

CIV_Bodine says:
Self: I wonder if anyone else is here, I Mean other then the Trashura.  If one ship can get stuck on this place maybe others are as well.

Host K`van says:
ACTION:  The comm tap into the Trashura's internal comm's worked.

CTO_Mahl says:
CO: I am reading approximately 45 life signs, but at this distance it's hard to tell much more than that.

CO_Regnum says:
::walks over to the OPS console and enters in the prefix codes::

CO_Regnum says:
CTO: What's the word on those transporters

CIV_Bodine says:
::finishes his coffee and replaces the cup in the replicator watching it disapear::

Host K`van says:
COMM: Dracona: CO: This is Captain K'van of the USS Trashura, our engines are not operational, all systems are failing.

CO_Regnum says:
OPS: Can you get a fix on our current time?

FCO_Jankara says:
::watches the distance between the ship and the planet, checking for any mountain ranges between them and the Trashura::

CIV_Bodine says:
::taps his Comm-Badge:: *OPS*: Can you ask the Captain if I can use stellar cartography to access the advanced sensors. I'm curious about this Planet. Maybe I can find more info about how long its been here or if there are any life forms other then the ship.

FCO_Jankara says:
::fires thrusters again::

CO_Regnum says:
COMM: K`van: Glad to hear your voice Captain. How bad is your situation, should we send a repair crew or try to evacuate you?

OPS_Walker says:
CO:  150 years in the past, sir.

CTO_Mahl says:
CO: Distance is too far for transporters, we will have to get at least 50 percent closer to them.

FCO_Jankara says:
CO: Sir, we are 20 minutes away from them.  I hesitate to raise any further from the surface in case we get spit out of this anomaly before completing the rescue.

CO_Regnum says:
CTO: Yes, I know that, but are they working in the anomaly?

Host K`van says:
COMM: We have structural damage.  There's no way to save the ship without a salvage ship.

CO_Regnum says:
COMM: K'van: We are coming as quickly as we can but are still 20 minutes away. You've been here longer then we have, have you been able to determine if there is a pattern to the temporal shifts?

CTO_Mahl says:
CO: Transporters show power, but we should do a sample transport before trying it on personnel.

OPS_Walker says:
::hears the Trashura status report and starts to sort evacuation space for the crew of the Trashura::

CO_Regnum says:
CTO: Well get on it Lieutenant

CTO_Mahl says:
::Checks his scans:: CO: Sir, I am now reading structural damage from the Trashura.  They are missing part of the lower deck, and one nacelle is gone.
CTO_Mahl says:
::Contacts the transporter room, and has them run tests on the transporters using empty containers::

Host K`van says:
COMM: CO: Yes Captain, the exit point seems to be random.  However it appears that every time it opens is a different time period.  Every fourth opening is our time period.

OPS_Walker says:
CO:  Tractors might be able to lift it, but there's no way we can tow it.

CO_Regnum says:
OPS: How long between temporal shifts?

OPS_Walker says:
CO: So far we have 5-10 minutes between shifts.  There's a slight variance in our readings and the Trashura's...but it's within margin of error.

CO_Regnum says:
OPS: Estimated time till next shift?

CIV_Bodine says:
::not getting a response from the bridge he sits back down and looks out the view port some more:: Self: I guess they can handle it. Why did Starfleet put me here anyway. ::puts his hands on his chin::

Host K`van says:
ACTION:  The wormhole begins to open allowing sensors to lock onto Trill and it's surrounding stars.  

CTO_Mahl says:
CO: Test transports were successful, once in range, we should be able to use the transporters for rescue.

TO_MJDoole says:
::opens mind to the Trashura to determine how many more lifesigns, if any, are there other than the one that belongs to the voice on the COM::

OPS_Walker says:
CO:  It's opening again.  I mark time at 9mins 30secs, and time checks and stellar drift show we are at 75 years in the past.

CO_Regnum says:
::still leery of transporting inside this anomaly:: Self: I still don't feel safe using the transporters inside a temporal anomaly, I'd be worried about beaming someone to another point in history

Host K`van says:
ACTION:  The Wormhole closes

OPS_Walker says:
CO:  Sir, there's an alternating pattern here from the Trashura's data.  When this anomaly closes again, we’ll have 4 mins 25 secs until the next opening, and it will be into our time period.

CIV_Bodine says:
Self: I think I'll go anyway

OPS_Walker says:
CO:  Entering transporter range now.

CIV_Bodine says:
::heads to Stellar Cartography::

CO_Regnum says:
COMM: K'van: Regnum to K'Van, we're going to try and evacuate you by transporter, my crew says transporters are working, though I want some extra security, can you set up some pattern enhancers around an area that we can evacuate you from?

Host K`van says:
COMM: CO: Understood, we'll get them set up around the transporter room.

OPS_Walker says:
::initiates pattern buffers and routes all available power to the signal receptors on the transporters::

CIV_Bodine says:
::enters his clearance code and enters the lab:: Self: Now lets see .. ::accesses the main sensor palette::

CIV_Bodine says:
::looks at the sensor history and notices as the worm hole had opened a couple times so far sense they have been there::

FCO_Jankara says:
::raises them a little further from the surface so she can increase speed::

TO_MJDoole says:
::cannot seem to break free of the effects of the anomaly::

OPS_Walker says:
CO:  Sir, I've got a small problem.  It's time.  We don't have enough before the next cycle to our own time period.

CIV_Bodine says:
Self: Maybe there is a pattern I can calculate to estimate the next opening point. ::starts looking for a pattern and working out the equations::

TO_MJDoole says:
::robotic droning voice:: CO: I sense that there is life, that is all

OPS_Walker says:
CO:  I need 15 minutes with the transporters working full-tilt to get them out of there.

CO_Regnum says:
OPS: Then we are going to have to stay for another cycle. When it opens, start a countdown, I want to know exactly how long it will be before it opens again

CO_Regnum says:
OPS: To our time that is

OPS_Walker says:
CO:  Aye, sir. I have one counting already.

CO_Regnum says:
OPS: I want all transporter rooms ready to begin evacuation as soon as we are within range

Host K`van says:
ACTION:  The wormhole opens onto the correct time.

OPS_Walker says:
CO:  Aye, sir...we are in range...now.

CO_Regnum says:
COMM: K'Van: We are within transporter range now, activate the pattern enhancers and load up

OPS_Walker says:
::initiates transports of the Trashura crew to all available evacuation spaces::

CIV_Bodine says:
::locks onto the new wormhole with level 4 sensor scans and starts examining the data::

Host K`van says:
ACTION: The transports are successful.

FCO_Jankara says:
CO: I'm working on getting us closer.

CTO_Mahl says:
::Gets a creepy feeling while the shields are down for transport::

OPS_Walker says:
CO:  Transports are succeeding...we're taking them on as fast as we can.

CO_Regnum says:
OPS: Overlay a display of the time till evacuation is complete and the time till the wormhole opens to our own time period on the main viewer

CIV_Bodine says:
Self: I think I got it ...

OPS_Walker says:
CO:  Aye, sir.  It will be 28 minutes, 10 seconds.

OPS_Walker says:
::puts the time readout up on the main viewer for everyone to see::

FCO_Jankara says:
OPS: Will the planet last that long?  What's happening with the earthquakes?

OPS_Walker says:
FCO:  I don't know, really.  I was weak in geophysics, but who knows how long it was here?

CIV_Bodine says:
*CO*: Captain, I have something for you, there is a difference between time intervals in the appearance of the wormholes. The next one will be short but the one after the next will be longer and that will be the best time to make it back.

FCO_Jankara says:
::lays in a course for the mouth of the anomaly when the time is right::

CIV_Bodine says:
::sends his readings to OPS on the Bridge from Stellar Cartography::

CO_Regnum says:
*CIV*: Good work Mr. Bodine, have your scans revealed anybody else in this anomaly?

OPS_Walker says:
*CIV*:  I'm receiving your telemetry nicely, Lieutenant.  I'm synching my ETA to our next opening to your real-time data.

Host K`van says:
ACTION: The anomaly opens once more, closing 1 1/2 minutes later.

OPS_Walker says:
CO:  We have about 3/4 of the crew now, Sir.

CIV_Bodine says:
*CO*: I'll do a sweep of the surface ...

CIV_Bodine says:
::uses all arrays not already committed on the wreck or the wormholes to search the Planet for any other stranded life forms::

OPS_Walker says:
::initiates full geological scans of the planetoid for the records::

Host K`van says:
ACTION:  The wormhole opens again as the last of the Trashura crew is transported aboard, it closes 1 1/2 minutes later.

OPS_Walker says:
CO:  That's it, we have them.  All present and accounted for.  Medical is checking them over now, but there are some reports of critical injuries, sir.

CO_Regnum says:
CTO: Be ready to raise shields when we have finished the evacuation, maximum shields between the ship and the planet, in case it blows

OPS_Walker says:
CTO:  We're done...go for it.

CO_Regnum says:
*CMO*: Bridge to Doctor Burton, please see to our guests with the best of your ability

CTO_Mahl says:
::Raises shields, with extra power sent to the bottom shield generators::

CO_Regnum says:
FCO: Lay in a course for the anomaly, but time our departure so that we exit in our own time period, I'd really rather not have to explain to the Starfleet of a hundred years ago who we are.

CIV_Bodine says:
*OPS/CO*: Alright the next one is just a few minutes away...as I'm sure you already know. Hope my timing is right...

CTO_Mahl says:
CO: Shields up, and at full strength with a bit of enhanced power to the bottom generators.

CMO_Burton says:
*CO*: Aye sir, consider it done.

OPS_Walker says:
Self:  Oh...my...god...  CO: SIR!

CO_Regnum says:
OPS: What is it Lieutenant?

OPS_Walker says:
::calls up geoscans and displays them on the viewer::

FCO_Jankara says:
CO: Course already laid in Sir.  Just waiting for the right time.

FCO_Jankara says:
::looks over at Johnny::

OPS_Walker says:
CO:  Look at the fault lines here!  They all converge at one point, and that's the point the wormhole is being generated from.

CO_Regnum says:
Self: A planet in a constant state of temporal shift, the wormhole isn't causing the shifting plates, it's the other way around

OPS_Walker says:
CO:  The whole thing is geologically unstable.  It could blow at any time if these readings are right.  *CIV*:  John, are you seeing what I'm seeing on the planetoid?

CIV_Bodine says:
*OPS*: I see those fault lines I think we need to make this next opening or we might all be doomed...

CMO_Burton says:
::Checking over the most serious injuries::

OPS_Walker says:
*CIV*:  Yeah, that's what I'm getting out of this too.  CO:  We have to get out of here soonest, sir.  No telling what happens to us if we're here and that thing goes.

Host K`van says:
ACTION:  The patient that Burton is treating begins to crash.

CO_Regnum says:
OPS: Can we wait till a opening to our own time or do we need to escape to some other time?

Host K`van says:
ACTION:  The wormhole begins to open.

OPS_Walker says:
CO:  The next one is into our own time if the pattern holds.  There it is!

CO_Regnum says:
::sees the wormhole on viewer:: OPS: Is that our time?

CMO_Burton says:
MO: We need to stabilize this patient now!.

OPS_Walker says:
::checks::  CO:  Confirmed, that's the one!

CO_Regnum says:
FCO: Get us out of here Lieutenant!

Host K`van says:
ACTION: An earthquake begins to shake the planet apart.

CMO_Burton says:
<MO_Huurton> CMO: Aye sir.

CO_Regnum says:
*All Decks* All hands brace for impact if this planet blows up under us.

OPS_Walker says:
::turns on the aft scanners to record the planetoid's death::

FCO_Jankara says:
::initiates the course and pulls away from the planet surface::

FCO_Jankara says:
OPS: Johnny, is that our time?

OPS_Walker says:
CO:  I think that quake down there is it!  We've got to go now, sir.

OPS_Walker says:
FCO:  That's our time!

FCO_Jankara says:
::moves to full impulse and heads out the wormhole::

Host K`van says:
ACTION: As the Dracona exits the wormhole, the planet erupts causing the wormhole to collapse.

CTO_Mahl says:
::Monitors the shield generators, hoping they hold out of the planet explodes::

CMO_Burton says:
::Franticly starts to work to stabilize his patient::

Host K`van says:
ACTION:  The collapse causes a level 4 shockwave.

OPS_Walker says:
::gets the readings and footage all on record::

OPS_Walker says:
ALL:  Level 4 shockwave coming in!

CO_Regnum says:
All: Not another shockwave

CTO_Mahl says:
CO: Shields at maximum.

CO_Regnum says:
FCO: Get us out of here Maximum Warp!

FCO_Jankara says:
::enters a path and engages warp engines::

OPS_Walker says:
::routes all remaining power to engines::

Host K`van says:
ACTION:  The shockwave rocks the Dracona briefly before warp kicks in pulling them to safety.

FCO_Jankara says:
CO: Working on it Sir!

CTO_Mahl says:
CO: Shields held, Sir.

CO_Regnum says:
OPS: Synch our chronometers with the nearest temporal beacon, confirm that we are in our own time and adjust for any variance between our time and actual time

FCO_Jankara says:
::gets jostled a bit::

OPS_Walker says:
::exhales::  CO:  We're clear.  ::double-checks stellar drift and time markers::

Host K`van says:
ACTION: As they depart the area of the shockwave, Doole comes out of his trance suffering complete amnesia.

OPS_Walker says:
CO: We're where we are supposed to be...two minutes ahead actually.  That's likely the wormhole's instability...but I've synched the chronometers and there appears to be no time dialation effects.

CO_Regnum says:
FCO: Alter course to take us to Arcadia and reduce to cruising speed

FCO_Jankara says:
CO: Aye Sir.  Adjusting to cruising speed.

FCO_Jankara says:
::adjust speed and heading to take them home::

CTO_Mahl says:
::Notices the TO swaying a bit, then he gets a blank look on his face.  As I try to speak to him, there is no response so the CMO is contacted::

CMO_Burton says:
::Prepares a hypo and injects the patient::

OPS_Walker says:
CO:  Official Damage report -- a few paint scratches and that's about it, Captain.

CTO_Mahl says:
*CMO* Doctor to the bridge.

CO_Regnum says:
OPS: When we get back to the station, have an engineering team assigned to fix that up, I can't be seen commanding a ship with a bad paint job

CMO_Burton says:
*CTO*: I am slightly occupied at the moment sir.

OPS_Walker says:
CO:  ::smirks::  Yessir.  I'll get a couple of my housekeeping boys in here for a tune up and a lube job too.  ::chuckles::

CTO_Mahl says:
*CMO* Ok, then I will have TO Doole transported to sickbay,  he seems to be out of his trance, but seems to be totally blank now.

CO_Regnum says:
OPS: Good, and have someone see to my chair, it's been squeaking

FCO_Jankara says:
OPS: I guess we shouldn't tell him about the missing paint outside the docking ring on the station then, should we?

CTO_Mahl says:
OPS: Can you lock onto TO Doole, and have him transported to sickbay?

FCO_Jankara says:
::grins and looks at the Captain from the corner of her eye::

OPS_Walker says:
CO:  Got you covered, sir.  ::smirks::

CO_Regnum says:
::notes the FCO's smile:: what about your chair lieutenant, does he need to have that one fixed too?

OPS_Walker says:
CTO:  ::sadly::  Aye, I can.  ::tranports Doole to sickbay::

TO_MJDoole says:
:;totally confused:: CTO: Transport me where? Why would I need to go there. I feel fine.

FCO_Jankara says:
CO: No Sir.

CMO_Burton says:
*CTO*: Very good sir. I will make sure he is taking care of.

FCO_Jankara says:
~~~OPS: I should have said yes so I could sit in your lap.~~~

OPS_Walker says:
~~~FCO:  Maybe I should arrange for that!~~~  ::grins::

CTO_Mahl says:
::Looks at Doole:: TO: Hang in there, the doctor will help you.
