Mission Summary 10505.09

Host Susan says:
With the Zabban's in a secure area being treated as royalty, Captain Regnum and Lieutenant Johnson are questioning the humans that were transported aboard.

Host Susan says:
Commander Martin and Lieutenant Hoyt are investigating the Zabban ship and the engineering team that was found unconscious.

Host Susan says:
All other senior staff have been ordered to report to the holodeck for a brief training session.

Host Susan says:
Admiral Hamilton is awaiting the crew outside the holodeck to give them their mission orders.

Host ADM Hamilton says:
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Resume Mission >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

CTO Walker says:
::arrives at the holodeck::  ADM:  Admiral. ::nods::

Host ADM Hamilton says:
::nod:: CTO: Lieutenant Walker, I see you received your orders ahead of time...Excellent.

CEO Mahl says:
::Adjusts his new color uniform as he walks down the corridor, and arrives at the holodeck:: ADM: Admiral. ::Nods in greeting::

CTO Walker says:
ADM:  I like to be prepared, sir.  

Host ADM Hamilton says:
::returns the greeting:: CEO: Lieutenant Mahl, this shade of gold suits you.

CSO MJDoole says:
::arrives at the holodeck, sandwich in hand, and eating as usual::

Host ADM Hamilton says:
CTO: That's good to hear, Lieutenant.

CO Burton says:
::Arrives at the holodeck:: ADM: Ma'am.

CTO Walker says:
::notes Doole and keeps a straight face::

Host ADM Hamilton says:
CSO: I'm afraid there will not be time to eat once the training session begins.

Host ADM Hamilton says:
::nods to the CO::  CO: Lieutenant Burton, good to see that you did receive the message. 

CSO MJDoole says:
ADM: Sorry Admiral. I got hungry. ::finishes the sandwich in two more bites::

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ALL:  I understand that this is sudden and with the Zabban on board, it may appear out of place.  However, command believes that these spur of the moment training sessions are needed to keep people on their toes.

CEO Mahl says:
ADM: I look forward to a bit of training in the engineering area.  

CTO Walker says:
::whispers::  CO:  you look good in red, Doctor.

CO Burton says:
CTO: Thanks. ::Smiling::

CSO MJDoole says:
::BURP:: ::pounds chest with a fist:: ALL: Excuse me.

Host ADM Hamilton says:
::smiles:: ALL: Once you enter the holodeck, the simulation will begin with the mission in progress.  Your team has been assigned to offer assistance to a small Cardassian outpost.  Supposedly, they have contracted a rare and disfiguring virus.  They have a medical officer present and you are taking the anti-virus to their location and assisting in rebuilding their village.

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ALL: Any questions?

CTO Walker says:
ADM:  No, sir.

CEO Mahl says:
ADM: None from me, Sir.

CO Burton says:
ADM: Ready, Admiral.

Host ADM Hamilton says:
::looks around at the others:: ALL: Then enter when ready.  

Host ADM Hamilton says:
Computer: Begin simulation.

CEO Mahl says:
::Walks towards the door of the holodeck::

CSO MJDoole says:
::enters the holodeck::

CO Burton says:
::Follows the CEO through the doors::

CEO Mahl says:
::Enters the holodeck, and heads for Engineering::

CTO Walker says:
::crosses the deck to the tactical station and logs in with his codes then calls up tactical schematics and ties in all sensor logs::

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION:  As the crew enters the holodeck, they find themselves on the defiant class "USS Ravenclaw".

CEO Mahl says:
::Arrives in engineering, and inspects his "Crew"::

CO Burton says:
ALL: Everyone to your posts.

CSO MJDoole says:
::finds the Science Station::

CEO Mahl says:
::Goes to an engineering console, and checks the warp core readings, then the impulse drive::

Host ADM Hamilton says:
<EO No'tall> ::Steps forward when he sees the new Chief and growls:: CEO: Do you think you can lead this team?

CO Burton says:
CSO: ETA to arrival?

CSO MJDoole says:
CO: ETA is 7 minutes at present speed.

CEO Mahl says:
::Turns and glares at No’Tall:: No’Tall: Who are you to question my credentials, mister?  You just earned yourself a shift on waste extraction.

CO Burton says:
CSO: Very well, please scan for any other vessels in the area.

CTO Walker says:
CO:  Sir, there's a small orbital defense platform.  It's reading inoperative, but I'll scan as we get closer.

CSO MJDoole says:
CO: Scanning....

Host ADM Hamilton says:
<EO No'tall> CEO: Waste extraction, nothing new there.  Is that all you have?  ::moves closer in an attempt to intimidate the new chief::

CEO Mahl says:
::Looks around at the rest of his crew:: All: Would anyone else like to join Mr. No'Tall?

CO Burton says:
CTO: Very good.

CEO Mahl says:
::Turns his attention back to No'Tall:: No'Tall: You obviously do not like working in this department.  Perhaps a transfer to security would suit you more?

CTO Walker says:
CO:  I have the stats on that orbital platform.  Its 4 older phaser banks with a common power source.   It is currently powered down.

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION:  The remainder of the engineering team appears to be amused, but straighten up quickly when confronted.

CO Burton says:
CTO: Inform me of any change please.

CEO Mahl says:
All: That will be enough of the laughter.  You all have assigned duties.  Now let's get to them.

Host ADM Hamilton says:
<No'tall> ::chuckles:: CEO: No, just seeing what you have, Sir.  Welcome aboard.

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION:  The engineering team falls in line and resumes their duties.

CTO Walker says:
::activates perimeter proximity scanning::

CEO Mahl says:
::Extends a hand to No'Tall:: No'Tall: Thank you.  Just remember one thing.  My size might not match yours, but I back down from nobody.  Now, let's get to work.

CEO Mahl says:
All: I am reading a slight variation in the warp core.  Let's get that calibrated before we do anything else.  

CSO MJDoole says:
CO: Captain, I detect no other vessels in the area, but there is a small spatial distortion on the fringe of sensor range.

Host ADM Hamilton says:
<No'tall> ::shakes the chiefs hand and nods:: CEO: Aye, sir.  I'm on it.

CTO Walker says:
::furrows brow:: Self:  ::mouthed:: Spatial distortion?

CO Burton says:
CSO: Very well, keep an eye on that area will you.

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION: The Ravenclaw reaches orbit around the Cardassian colony.

CTO Walker says:
CO:  Sir, if that's a cloaked vessel, we would be able to unmask it with a tachyon burst.

Host ADM Hamilton says:
<FCO Phli> CO: We have established standard orbit around the colony, Sir.

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION: There is a slight change in the distortion that quickly returns to normal.

CEO Mahl says:
::sees the core readings go back to normal::

CO Burton says:
CSO: I would you and the CTO to prepare to deliver the antivirus to the colony and assist with the relief.

Host ADM Hamilton says:
<OPS Shatt> CO: No signal from the colony.

CTO Walker says:
CSO:  I registered a change in that distortion...can you confirm?

CO Burton says:
OPS: Aye. Keep trying.

CO Burton says:
CSO: Scan the colony for any abnormalities.

CTO Walker says:
::has a bad feeling::  Self:  No signal...  OPS:  Can you give me a life form reading on the colony?

CSO MJDoole says:
::scanning colonies::

CEO Mahl says:
::Sees that the shield generators could use some adjusting as well:: EO Wr'nch, I want you to adjust the port shield generator.  Check the relay in the GNDN tube, and if it needs adjusting or repair, do it.  Report back to me when finished.

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION: Scans of the colony shows no life forms, only skeletal remains of building and an outdated communications facility.

CTO Walker says:
CO:  Sir...a tachyon burst scan of that anomaly might yield good tactical information...May I suggest we do so?

Host ADM Hamilton says:
<OPS Shatt> CTO: I'm not reading any life forms on the colony.

CTO Walker says:
::sees the scan result:: Self:  Damn...  CO:  Sir, I think this is a trap.  There's no one down there....

CSO MJDoole says:
CO: Confirmed. There are no life forms. There's nothing here.

CO Burton says:
CTO: Agreed, proceed.

CTO Walker says:
::makes a tachyon burst scan of the anomaly and raises shields::

CO Burton says:
CSO: How long have they been dead? Did they succumb to the disease?

CTO Walker says:
CO:  I'm not the expert, but this looks like skeletons.  So, a while.

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION:  The tachyon burst causes further distortion of the anomaly and a ship is visible momentarily.

CTO Walker says:
CO:  It's a ship....cross referencing.  Recommend red alert.

CO Burton says:
CTO: I think we had better go to red alert.

CO Burton says:
CTO: Do it.

CTO Walker says:
CO:  Aye, sir.  

CTO Walker says:
*Ship wide*  All hands, red alert!

CEO Mahl says:
::Hears the call for red alert, and orders EO Wr'nch to get out of the GNDN tube::

CTO Walker says:
CO:  Quantum torpedoes and phasers online.  Ablative armor and secondary shields online.

CO Burton says:
CTO: Anything on that ship?

CSO MJDoole says:
CO: The people of the colony were all killed by some kind of weapons fire.

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION:  The anomaly shifts and their cloak drops revealing a Jem’Hadar cruiser.

CSO MJDoole says:
CO: And uhhhhh....

CTO Walker says:
CO:  Incoming Jem'Hadar vessel!

CSO MJDoole says:
:;pauses::

CSO MJDoole says:
CO: That was 10 years ago.

CO Burton says:
CSO: Ten years?

CTO Walker says:
<FCO>  CO:  Evasives ready, Captain.

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION:  The Jem'Hadar vessel turns toward the Ravenclaw, bringing weapons and shields to full

CSO MJDoole says:
CO: According to my reading, yes.

CO Burton says:
CTO: Stand ready, but make no aggressive moves....yet.

CTO Walker says:
::prelocks but waits for the order to open fire::  CO:  Weapons locked, ready if needed, sir.

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION:  The Jem'Hadar vessel opens fire on the smaller Ravenclaw.

CTO Walker says:
<FCO> ::moves the ship with impulse straight to starboard::

CEO Mahl says:
All: Be ready for anything.  Keep the shields at maximum.  Divert power wherever you can, but try not to lose any maneuvering power.

CO Burton says:
CTO: Ok now you an use you best aggressive moves! FIRE AT WILL!

CTO Walker says:
CO:  Aye, sir.  ::opens fire::

CTO Walker says:
::targets primary shield coils on the Jem'Hadar ship and fires quantum torpedoes::

CEO Mahl says:
::Monitors the power drain from the weapons use, and breathes a sigh when he sees that all systems are responding properly::

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION:  The weapons fire appears to rock both ships but little damage is apparent.

CO Burton says:
CTO: Target their propulsion systems if possible.

CTO Walker says:
::fires phasers to batter the Jem'Hadar shields and follows with quantum torpedoes to engines::

CTO Walker says:
CO:  Aye sir, targeting engines, shield generators, and power plants at this time.

CO Burton says:
CSO: Try and hail them.

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION: The Ravenclaw takes a direct hit to the forward shields and shield strength drops to 60%.

CTO Walker says:
<FCO>  Rotates the ship off axis and dives in a weaving pattern to avoid more fire

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION:  The Jem'Hadar ship takes a direct hit from the quantum torpedo and their shields drop to 52%.

CTO Walker says:
::holds on to console::  CO:  that hurt us...shields to 60 percent!

CO Burton says:
*CEO*: Divert all extra power to the shields.

CEO Mahl says:
*CO* Giving you all we got now, Sir.

CTO Walker says:
FCO:  Line up a shot at their aft generators and get me a targeting run!

CEO Mahl says:
::Orders power diverted from all non-essential areas to the shield generators::

CO Burton says:
CSO: Any response to our hails?

CSO MJDoole says:
CO: Perhaps we could get a small explosive device, inside the Jem'Hadar vessel, and blow ‘em up from the inside

CTO Walker says:
::opens fire when the lock tone is heard with all tubes of quantum torpedoes and phasers in one pin-point target::

CSO MJDoole says:
CTO: Can I talk to you over here?

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION:  The Jem'Hadar takes position for another weapons volley and fires all weapons.

CO Burton says:
CSO: How do we get it aboard?

CTO Walker says:
<FCO> ::swerves at a weapons flash and moves up and aft::

CSO MJDoole says:
CTO: Never mind, I come to you

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION:  The Ravenclaw's volley makes contact with the port shields, causing the port shields to collapse.

CTO Walker says:
CO:  We've collapsed their port shields!  ::continues heavy fire with phasers on the bare hull::

CEO Mahl says:
*CO* Sir, I've given you all the power possible for shields.  

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION:  The Ravenclaw manages to miss the worst of the Jem'Hadar weapons though sustains another hit to shields draining them further to 51%.

CO Burton says:
CTO: Concentrate your fire there.

CTO Walker says:
CO:  ooof!  Shields down to 51%!

CO Burton says:
*CEO*: Confirmed

CSO MJDoole says:
CO: the CTO and I could use something small, and barely detectable like a probe.

CTO Walker says:
CO:  Aye sir.  All weapons, surgical strikes along the exposed port side.  Targeting weapons, shield generators, and engines...

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION:  The Jem'Hadar attempt to regroup, and lash out with another volley.

CO Burton says:
CSO: If you have an idea I suggest we use it with utmost haste.

CTO Walker says:
<FCO>  ::swings the ship down and forward below the beams of Jem'Hadar fire

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION:  The Ravenclaw manages to cause a breach to decks four and five of the Jem'Hadar vessel.

CTO Walker says:
CSO:  The shields are down on their port side...and we've got breaches on decks for and five of their vessel...that help?

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION:  The Ravenclaw dodges the direct hit, as the volley bounces off the remaining shields draining it another percent.

CEO Mahl says:
::Fights to find other sources of power for the shields::

CSO MJDoole says:
COM: *SO_G. O. Boomer*: Bring me the stuff out of the gold locker marked 321-A4.

CTO Walker says:
CO:  Shields at 50%

CSO MJDoole says:
<SO_G. O. Boomer> *CSO*: Right away sir.

CTO Walker says:
::fires at the exposed decks again with quantum torpedoes::

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION:  The Jem'Hadar weapon fires again.

CTO Walker says:
::targets weapons and engines with surgical strikes::

CSO MJDoole says:
::SO Boomer arrives and he and the CSO, build the weapon::

CTO Walker says:
<FCO> ::dodges another blast to port and tries to go starboard again::

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION:  The Ravenclaw's volley extends the hull breach, opening the entire port side to space.

CEO Mahl says:
::Shuts down all power to the crew lounge, and any compartment that isn’t occupied at the moment, and diverts that power to shields::

CSO MJDoole says:
CO: She's ready sir.

CO Burton says:
CTO: You think there's any chance they might give up?

CTO Walker says:
CO:  Sir, their entire port side is open to space.

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION:  The Jem'Hadar weapons bounce off the Ravenclaw's shields.

CTO Walker says:
CO:  I've never known the Jem’Hadar to give up, but it's worth a try?

CEO Mahl says:
*CO* Sir, I found a bit more power for the shields.  Anything more, and our life support goes offline completely.

CTO Walker says:
CO:  Shields holding.

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION:  Shields are boosted to 64%.

CO Burton says:
CTO: Get it ready and if there’s no reply to this last hail, let it go.

CSO MJDoole says:
CO: I have to put it inside a torpedo. Be right back.

CSO MJDoole says:
::leaves, heads for the torpedo bay::

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION:  Still no response to the Ravenclaw's hails.

CO Burton says:
OPS: Try and hail them again

CTO Walker says:
CO:  Aye, sir.  Broadside ready.  Shields now at 64%.

CSO MJDoole says:
::arrives at torpedo bay::

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION:  The Jem'Hadar fires another volley.

CO Burton says:
CTO: When the CSO has his device ready deliver to that vessel.

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION:  Sensors detect venting plasma from the Jem'Hadar vessel.

CTO Walker says:
CO:  Aye, sir.  Waiting for payload acknowledgement from the torpedo bay.

CSO MJDoole says:
::pulls out a torpedo, and modifies it so that it will hopefully penetrate the hull of the Jem’Hadar vessel, and places the new weapon inside::

CSO MJDoole says:
*CO*: Captain, she's all yours. Lock and Load. Fire when Ready.

CSO MJDoole says:
:;heads back to the bridge::

CTO Walker says:
CO:  Torpedo bay reports ready.  Weapon is locked and loaded.

CSO MJDoole says:
:;arrives on Bridge::

CO Burton says:
CTO: Go ahead. They left us no recourse.

CTO Walker says:
CO:  ::swallows::  Aye sir.  ::fires single torpedo of CSO design::

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION:  A coolant leak is now detected from the Jem'Hadar vessel.

CTO Walker says:
CO:  They've got a coolant leak...their engines will be going critical any time now.

CO Burton says:
FCO: Takes us to a safe distance.

CTO Walker says:
<FCO>  CO:  Aye sir...::maneuvers the ship away::

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION:  The torpedo enters the breached port side, and detonates the leaking plasma and coolant.  

CTO Walker says:
CO:  Weapon detonation...scanning for damage...

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION:  The Jem'Hadar's engines go critical and the vessel disintegrates.

CTO Walker says:
CO:  ::sadness:: They’re gone, sir.

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION:  A level four shockwave resonates from the destroyed vessel, directly in line for the Ravenclaw.

CO Burton says:
CTO/CSO: Please scan for any escape pods or survivors. ::Hoping but knowing there will be none::

CTO Walker says:
ALL:  Level 4 shockwave incoming!

CO Burton says:
FCO: Get us out of here, NOW!

CSO MJDoole says:
CTO: Scan  on the run

CTO Walker says:
ALL:  Time to impact 6 minutes.

CSO MJDoole says:
::scanning::

FCO Martin says:
CO: On it now, sir! ::quickly inputs a route to safety and engages::

CTO Walker says:
CO:  Scanning for anything...

CTO Walker says:
CO:  Nothing to scan, sir.  The shockwave ate anything left.

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION:  The Ravenclaw engages and remains on the fringe of the shockwave.  The crew is bounced around as the ship is buffeted by the tip of the shockwave.

CO Burton says:
FCO: Can you out run it?

CTO Walker says:
*CEO*:  I'm going to need power to the aft shields and SIF, Joran...

FCO Martin says:
CO: Think so, sir, just a touch bouncy, that’s all

CTO Walker says:
::hangs on as the ship shakes around him::

CEO Mahl says:
::Reads fluctuations in the warp field.  Runs a scan, and finds that the relays in the GNDN conduit are on the verge of all out failure:: *CO* Sir, how much longer do you think we will need to remain at warp?

Host ADM Hamilton says:
ACTION:  The holodeck gridlines appears as the simulation ends.

CO Burton says:
FCO: Very well

Host ADM Hamilton says:
::enters the holodeck:: ALL: Well done, all of you.

CTO Walker says:
::stands up from his no longer existent chair::

CO Burton says:
Adm: Thank you very much.

CO Burton says:
ALL: Well done crew.

CEO Mahl says:
ADM: You ended the simulation just in time. Another moment at warp, and the relays in the GNDN conduit would have blown.

CTO Walker says:
::gives the "CO" the thumbs up::  CO:  Well done, Doctor Burton!

FCO Martin says:
::stands, tucking her hair behind one ear:: Adm: the Doc certainly makes a competent Captain, that’s for sure.

Host ADM Hamilton says:
CEO: You were doing fine, besides I think they were programmed to hold.

CO Burton says:
::Slightly bows to the CTO::

Host ADM Hamilton says:
::nods:: FCO: Agreed, Commander.  Everyone did as well as expected.

CEO Mahl says:
ADM: It felt good to get my hands dirty from something other than blood, or weapons residue.

CTO Walker says:
FCO:  Funny you didn't have to change the color of your uniform either...

Host ADM Hamilton says:
