XO Cmdr Harker
::Steps into the Ops Center, heads for an empty station.::

XO Cmdr Harker
::Orders station to yellow alert and starts scanning the area, keeping a lock on the freighter.::

FCO Lt Ryushi
::in his office on Tiers C, Spacedock Control, monitoring the progress of the inbound Ferengi vessel on long-range sensors::

XO Cmdr Harker
OPS: Please make sure Shipyards is aware of their soon to be new visitor.

XO Cmdr Harker
::Scans the ship in detail for the evidence logs.::

INFO: Incoming Ferengi freighter, heavily damaged

XO Cmdr Harker
::Thinks to self how she really hates dealing with the Ferengi..::

FCO Lt Ryushi
*XO*: Commander, I thought we'd berth the Ferengi vessel in Tiers G of the Spacedock... unless they're too heavily damaged.  Then I suppose we'd move them to the shipyards.  Your thoughts?

XO Cmdr Harker
*FCO*:It's pretty heavily damaged send it to the shipyards, make sure they know to forward the results of their onsite checks for the evidence log.:

FCO Lt Ryushi
*XO*: Aye, Commander; I'll divert them to the shipyards directly.  I'm sending an IRT down there now to do an initial inspection and gather the necessary data components from the vessel.

XO Cmdr Harker
*FCO*:Excellent keep me posted, Harker out.

OPS Ens Link
XO: Do you wish to hail them Commander?

XO Cmdr Harker
OPS: You read my mind, please do so.

OPS Ens Link
::attempts to open a channel with the Ferengi agent::

INFO: The core of the Ferengi vessel is going critical

FCO Lt Ryushi
COM: Ferengi Vessel: Ferengi vessel, this is the Federation Starbase Arcadia.  Surrender control of your vessel to Arcadia Spacedock Control for final approach.

OPS Ens Link
XO: Commander that ships core is going critical.

XO Cmdr Harker
OPS: Lock on to the crew beam them aboard immediately...

OPS Ens Link
::runs hands over his console and attempts to get a lock on life signs::

XO Cmdr Harker
::Stands up from behind the console.::

FCO Lt Ryushi
::watches a power surge building on the Ferengi ship::  *XO*: Commander, we need to beam the warp core out of the middle of that ship, or we won't have a ship to examine.  Beam it into space!

XO Cmdr Harker
::monitors lifesigns from her console.::

XO Cmdr Harker
*FCO*: Acknowledged..

OPS Ens Link
::attempts to transport the ships occupants to Arcadia and simultaneously hails the dry dock asking them to raise shields::

FCO Lt Ryushi
*XO*: I'll do it.  ::attempts to lock onto the unstable warp core::

OPS Ens Link
XO: That freighter was getting close to the dock I went ahead and ordered them to raise shields.

XO Cmdr Harker
::Pauses on her attempt to beam out the core.::*FCO*:Acknowledged.

XO Cmdr Harker
OPS: Well done

OPS Ens Link
XO: I succeeded getting half the crew….making another attempt.

FCO Lt Ryushi
::remodulates the transporter beam and tries again:: Self: Damn it...

XO Cmdr Harker
::Assists Ops in gathering up the rest of the crew, orders medical and security to the location of the survivors on board.::

ACTION: The core detonates, sending Ferengi ship shrapnel in all directions

XO Cmdr Harker
OPS: Do you have them?

XO Cmdr Harker
::Hand hovering over Tactical’s 'raise shields' button.::

ACTION: the shockwave approaches the station and drydock

FCO Lt Ryushi
::watches the ship explode and halts his transporting attempts::

OPS Ens Link
XO: shockwave impacted drydock and Arcadia shields no damage reported. I got all but 1 life sign Ma'am ...

XO Cmdr Harker
::closes eyes briefly...cursing mentally to herself.::

FCO Lt Ryushi
*XO*: Commander, we've lost the Ferengi ship.  I'm putting a containment field around the debris field.  We'll at least salvage the pieces; the IRT might be able to get something from that.

XO Cmdr Harker
OPS: Thank you ops.

XO Cmdr Harker
*FCO*: It's your crime scene just work with security and engineering for whatever you need.

XO Cmdr Harker
Ops: Scan the debris, anything?

OPS Ens Link
XO: I just ran a lifesigns sensor analysis. It seems the life signs we missed was Female ... On a Ferengi ship .. ::puzzled::

XO Cmdr Harker
::looks back at the Ops ensign also puzzled.::

FCO Lt Ryushi
*XO*: Yes ma'am. To start, where are the Ferengi crew?

OPS Ens Link
::scans the debris for some anomalies:: XO: This scan may take time.

XO Cmdr Harker
OPS: Can you get anymore detailed DNA trace maybe?

XO Cmdr Harker
OPS: Soon as you can Ensign.

XO Cmdr Harker
*FCO*: Wait one.

FCO Lt Ryushi
::waits impatiently::

OPS Ens Link
XO: The survivors where transported to the transporter room nearest medical but not directly to. I already contacted security and medical.

XO Cmdr Harker
::Nods at ops.::

XO Cmdr Harker
*FCO*:Transporter room near medical though most likely in medical by now. I'm on my way down.

XO Cmdr Harker
::Gives ops center duty to the next highest officer and heads for medical.::

FCO Lt Ryushi
*XO*: Sickbay, acknowledged.

FCO Lt Ryushi
::jumps into the TL:: TL: Sickbay.

XO Cmdr Harker
TL: Sickbay

OPS Ens Link
::continues sensor sweeps of debris::

ACTION: The station is jolted hard as if by weapons fire, and all power is cut to the turbolifts

XO Cmdr Harker
::sighs and opens a COM to Operations:: OPS: Report! ::as she opens the manual hatch and climbs toward Ops center::

FCO Lt Ryushi
::steps off the turbolift on Level 16 and enters the doors to Sickbay, addressing the crowd standing there:: ALL: I am Lieutenant Ryushi of the Federation Starbase Arcadia.  You will disarm yourselves immediately and comply with the wishes of the Chief Medical Officer.  Any inquiries can be made to the Executive Officer, who is on her way.  For the time being, however... Where is your commanding officer?

ACTION: The Turbolifts start to plummet

XO Cmdr Harker
::Watches the TL plummet beneath her...::

XO Cmdr Harker
::thinks to self, "wow lucky I got out in time." continues to climb up.::

XO Cmdr Harker
*OPS*:Red Alert! Report!

FCO Lt Ryushi
::braces against a bulkhead in the infirmary as the station is jolted::

XO Cmdr Harker
::Thinks to self, "I really wish I could be surprised..." as she passes a level marker, 2 more to go...::

OPS Ens Link
*XO*: I am reporting a power failure in your turbolift .. or at lease the one you where just in

XO Cmdr Harker
*OPS*:Aye then it plummeted. I’m climbing up, how’s site to site, still online?

<Trom> FCO: I am Trom, commander of the Ferengi freighter WanVaz, you must secure yourselves, there is a demon out there!

OPS Ens Link
*XO*: Red Alert Aye!

FCO Lt Ryushi
::turns to face the diminutive commander:: Trom: Elaborate.

OPS Ens Link
::checks external sensors to see who is firing on Arcadia::

XO Cmdr Harker
::Tries the site to site, it doesn't work, muttering she climbs another deck up .::

XO Cmdr Harker
::Thinks to self, "Of all times for the Captain to take a Vacation..."::

OPS Ens Link
*XO*: Commander, no hostiles on sensors no indication what caused the shield impact. Scanning for neutrino emissions could be a fast cloaking ship. ::performs scan::

XO Cmdr Harker
*OPS*:Scan for everything and try rotating, it's got to be traceable...

XO Cmdr Harker
::Climbs up, sweaty and a little out of breath into the OPS Center.:: OPS: We really need better stairs...

OPS Ens Link
XO: Aye Sir. Performing a rotating frequency differential resolution sweep of the immediate area.

<Trom> FCO: They attacked from nowhere...

XO Cmdr Harker
::Takes the tact station. Assisting the Ops officer in his scans looking for something to fire at.::

FCO Lt Ryushi
::looks frustrated and takes out a PADD:: Trom: Please describe the encounter in detail.

XO Cmdr Harker
*FCO*:Soon as you have something useful from our guests I need a report, because I believe they're here...

FCO Lt Ryushi
*XO*: I'm working on it.  The Ferengi commander is somewhat of a blithering fool.

OPS Ens Link
XO: Might I suggest a broad spectrum subspace hail. Whomever attacked us might be listening.

ACTION: The ship is rocked again by another attack, all primary power in the station is lost

XO Cmdr Harker
*FCO*:Diplomacy Lt. but get the info. Harker, out.

XO Cmdr Harker
Ops: Worth a shot, hail them.

OPS Ens Link
XO: Channel open sir!

FCO Lt Ryushi
::looks up, sideways, annoyed:: Computer: Computer, activate emergency life support and bring auxiliary power generators online, authorization Ryushi-Alpha-four-seven.

XO Cmdr Harker
*Unknown Ship*: This is Commander Harker of the Federation Station Arcadia, heave to and identify yourselves.

FCO Lt Ryushi
::brings his gaze back down to the trembling Ferengi before him:: Trom: You were saying, commander?

OPS Ens Link
XO: Main power is offline. ::dispatches work crews::

XO Cmdr Harker
OPS: I noticed but thank you for the update..::She says in a calm, british voice.::

XO Cmdr Harker
*FCO*: When you're done there I suggest we prep Cygnus for launch, they still have power and weapons...

<Trom> FCO: It's too late, our doom is upon us!!!!

<Trom> ::Runs around like a chicken with his head cut off::

OPS Ens Link
XO: based on the impact strength and shield decay rate and consider that Station shields are beefed up quite a bit more then a starship I would say that another impact like that and we might not have a station anymore.

XO Cmdr Harker
*Unknown ship: This is Commander Harker of the Federation, Identify yourselves.

XO Cmdr Harker
OPS: I'm aware of that, can we get shields back online?

FCO Lt Ryushi
::rolls his eyes, now thoroughly pissed off;  he uses some Vulcan sarcasm:: Trom: I see why your ship was destroyed.  You appear to be quite the mission commander.

XO Cmdr Harker
::Works at an engineering console trying to help get power back to shields...::

FCO Lt Ryushi
::gestures at the idiotic Ferengi:: MO: Sedate him.  I'll post a security detail.  No one is to leave this room without the authorization of myself or Commander Harker.  ::leaves the room::

XO Cmdr Harker
::Glares at the console as though lack of shields was its fault.::

FCO Lt Ryushi
::taps his commbadge:: *XO* That may not be the wisest decision, Commander.  The station's defenses are considerably superior to those of the Cygnus.  We have a better chance of survival, not to mention a better chance of saving Arcadia Station if we remain on board.

FCO Lt Ryushi
::slides into a Jeffries tube and begins to climb toward Ops::

XO Cmdr Harker
*FCO*Aye but if we need to leave its our way out, I'd like it ready just in case. ::Glances at tactical hoping for more information she sees a readout... ::

XO Cmdr Harker
OPS: sensors show that that last blast took place inside the shield perimeter

FCO Lt Ryushi
*XO* Indeed.

XO Cmdr Harker
::Looks at the Ops Officer and reports same to the FCO...::

ACTION: There is another jolt, this time a mere meter from the hull, but strangely the blast seems to be aimed away from the station.. Hull Breach on Level 12...
