Previously on Arcadia: 

The attackers from another dimension, in ships that look like heads of ducks, flew into our reality and started tearing things up, now seeing the Arcadia and it's crew as a threat

Through a series of events, the aliens have now decided that our entire reality must be destroyed to protect theirs, but we've beat them to the punch. The Cygnus fired tricobalt torpedoes at the vortex, causing a shockwave in both realities, a minor one in ours, but a major one in theirs.

CO Cmdr Rome
::grabs the sides of his command chair:: XO: Shields?
 
FCO Lt Ryushi
@::at the helm of the Cygnus, turning the ship about to come away from the face of the wave::
 
CTO Lt Murphy
@::Puts as much power into shield reinforcement and inertial dampers as possible::
 
XO Cmdr Harker
::At the tactical station on Arcadia, trying to keep shields going.::
 
OPS Ens Chambers
XO: Commander, the tricobalt detonations at the event horizon caused a minor shockwave we faced only minor damage.
 
XO Cmdr Harker
OPS: Excellent, work with engineering on repairs.
 
XO Cmdr Harker
CO: We're at 50 percent shields Skipper
 
INFO: Sensors show no sign of the vortex
 
OPS Ens Chambers
XO: Aye Commander
 
XO Cmdr Harker
CO: There's no sign of the vortex, and we've weathered the shock wave..
 
CO Cmdr Rome
::taps his arm console:: XO: Great Paige...get damage control teams on all critical locations immediately, shields can wait.
 
CO Cmdr Rome
*FCO*: Lieutenant Ryushi, report
 
XO Cmdr Harker
::Continues to scan from the tactical station concerned.: CO: Here's hoping they're gone for good..::Her voice not holding out much hope.::
 
OPS Ens Chambers
*ENG*: We need crews to secure the internal breaches that were near the core make sure no critical systems where effected. We also need remaining teams working to sure up structural integrity. Finally there where reports of some damage in sickbay that might need some looking after.
 
CMO Ens Maui

FCO Lt Ryushi
@::brings the ship up to speed to ride the front end of the wave, trying to smooth the impact a bit:: COM: Arcadia: CO: We are compensating for the shockwave, Commander. I do not anticipate any damage.
 
OPS Ens Chambers
*CMO*: If you have a moment, doctor. Engineering needs to know what repairs will be needed in the Medical Ward.
 
XO Cmdr Harker
::Nods:: CO: They may come back, they were convinced we we're going to end their universe. I don't believe we did that much damage...

::runs into Ops:: All: where is the emergency?
 
CTO Lt Murphy
@::Attempts to locate the source of the transporter beam::
 
XO Cmdr Harker
CMO:It's the Captain, some of his organs are well out of phase...
 
XO Cmdr Harker
::Steps back letting the CMO get closer.::CMO: The other side is trying to beam people over...
 
ACTION: The transporter beam releases, leaving the FCO completely intact
 
CO Cmdr Rome

ACTION: another transporter beam appears in OPS, this time inbound
 
OPS Ens Chambers
*FCO*: Sir, we been a bit busy with a medical emergency here, but I suppose I should mention that we had to activate transport inhibitors to prevent the CO from being abducted. They almost got him he is now partially out of phase.
 
XO Cmdr Harker
::Nods::CO: You just recover Skip, I'm not ready for this job yet...
 
CMO Ens Maui
::rushes to the CO's side and begins to scan him:: CO: well we'll have time for more formal introduction later just relax while I have a look at you.

CO Cmdr Rome
::winks at Paige::
 
OPS Ens Chambers
XO: Sir another transport beam inbound right here in OPS! ::pulls out his Phaser
 
CTO Lt Murphy
@FCO: Some sort of transporter beam, I'm trying to locate it. Besides, we are supposed to stay on patrol station.

CO Cmdr Rome
CMO: Whatever you say Doc.....::tries to reach for his phaser::
 
CMO Ens Maui
XO: thank you I’ll take it from here.
 
XO Cmdr Harker
OPS: Get a force field around that beam...

OPS: I'll deal with this please prepare a report to Starfleet with all we've learned, send asap.
 
FCO Lt Ryushi
@COM: Arcadia: OPS: Then do not waste communication bandwidth by reporting to me! Report to Commander Harker, and contact the Cygnus only if you are ordered. Ryushi out. ::closes the comm::
 
FCO Lt Ryushi
@CTO: These junior officers are quite... annoying.
 
Barpa:
All: I am Imperial Magistrate Barpa, here to negotiate surrender
 
CMO Ens Maui
CO: looks like you are going to be find but this will help until your organs are fully back into phase ::places a hypospray to the CO's neck and administers a drug to help.::
 
XO Cmdr Harker
Barpa: I am Commander Harker, United Federation of Planets. whose surrender? what's happened?
 
CO Cmdr Rome
::feels a soothing sensation:: CMO: Thank you Doc....am I cleared for duty?
 
Barpa:
XO: Your attack killed 20,000 of my bretheren, I'm here to surrender before you fire any more of your weapons into our reality
 
XO Cmdr Harker
::Drops the phaser and falls into a chair in pure shock.::
 
CTO Lt Murphy
@FCO: Yeah, but until we break them in they are all we got. Fancy another game of pool once this is over mate?
 
CO Cmdr Rome
::tries to stand up:: Barpa: Magistrate...I am Commander Jonathan Rome, I'm in Command here. May I start with saying that killing your people was not our objective...but you forced our hand. I ask you to take that under consideration before we....grabs his side in pain:: continue talks.
 
CMO Ens Maui
CO: not yet if you are not still while your organs are out of phase you could cause some major damage
 
CO Cmdr Rome
::ignores the Doctor::
 
CO Cmdr Rome
::grabs a chair and pulls himself upright::
 
Barpa:
CO: We have done nothing to you, though we believe our enemy may have done something to you, we saw them sending hundreds of ships into a rift
 
XO Cmdr Harker
::Looks at Rome, shock and horror written on her face, as she struggles with the news.::
 
CMO Ens Maui
CO: lay back down now don't make me sedate you.
 
CO Cmdr Rome
::goes pale:: Magistrate: That...I'm so sorry.....we had to close the rift before they destroyed us.....please, we are a peaceful people. What can we do to help?
 
FCO Lt Ryushi
@::is slightly surprised; a Vulcan "smile" crosses his eyes:: CTO: I would enjoy that. And yes, they must be broken in. This is why we're strict with them. Once they are accustomed to working in a clean, efficient system, then we can be slightly more lenient. ::takes the ship in an arc around the flight perimeter of the station, lining up for the docking approach::
 
OPS Ens Chambers
CO: I do we know they are not the ones who had the ships we just have to trust that these people are different?
 
XO Cmdr Harker
::Said in a deadpan, emotionless voice.:: Barpa: we just wanted to close the rift, it was self - defense...
 
CO Cmdr Rome
CMO: The only way that will happen now, is for you to relieve me and have security carry me out of here.....please Doctor. ::said almost whispering::
 
CTO Lt Murphy
@FCO: Aye, canna have them cracking under pressure now, can we?
 
OPS Ens Chambers
::thinks Rome does not much care for Doctors::
 
CO Cmdr Rome
::tries to ignore the strange feeling in his side::
 
XO Cmdr Harker
::Stands her brain finally working through the feeling of horror.::
 
CO Cmdr Rome
OPS: Drop the...forcefield.
 
Barpa:
CO/XO: Whatever your intentions, you have killed thousands of my men and women, including my daughter Rasi
 
FCO Lt Ryushi
@CTO: Indeed.
 
CMO Ens Maui
CO: fine at least sit still if you move to much our organs we come back into phase in the wrong places and even worse spliced with each other
 
XO Cmdr Harker
::Closes her eyes forcing control through the feeling of horror.::
 
FCO Lt Ryushi
@CTO: Docking in T minus three minutes.
 
XO Cmdr Harker
::Opens them looking at Barpa.::
 
OPS Ens Chambers
::interjects into the conversation:: Barpa: Our sensors indicate that Commander Rome’s vital organs are now out of phase, are you able to help him?
 
CO Cmdr Rome
::falls down into his chair:: CMO: Alright Doc..
 
CMO Ens Maui
::monitors the CO carefully::
 
CTO Lt Murphy
@FCO: You making the Command decision to abandon our patrol route then? I dinna think the Boss will be pleased.
 
XO Cmdr Harker
::Wishes she could tell Barpa's lying, all she can hear in her mind is the orders to fire the tricolbat device, over and over.::
 
FCO Lt Ryushi
@CTO: I'm sorry?
 
CO Cmdr Rome
::tries to come to terms with this information......20 thousand dead...because of him::
 
CTO Lt Murphy
@FCO: The last orders from the Boss were to maintain a defensive perimeter around the station, mate.
 
CO Cmdr Rome
::brings down the forcefield::
 
CO Cmdr Rome
Magistrate: On behalf of the United Federation of Planets....we offer our aid in this matter, and on behalf of me and my crew....I'm so sorry for your loss.
 
Barpa:
OPS: I don't know how
 
FCO Lt Ryushi
@::raises an eyebrow, remembering slightly now:: CTO: Ah, of course... Perhaps upon our return to the station, I should visit the Infirmary. Our encounter with the transporter beam may have disrupted some of my memory engrams. ::alters course to circle the flight range and puts the ship to Yellow Alert::
 
CTO Lt Murphy
@FCO: Aye, that must be it. Being a Vulcan, ye canna be so keen to get yer butt whooped in pool that ye fergot our orders, aye? ::winks and grins::
 
FCO Lt Ryushi
@::recognizes the humor as the ship comes about to the normal course:: CTO: If I recall correctly, I believe I was victorious in our last billiards engagement, Lieutenant. ::Vulcan smile::
 
XO Cmdr Harker
CIV: We need to confirm this information somehow...
 
CTO Lt Murphy
@FCO: By one ball, and you never gave me a rematch. Me honor is at stake. ::winks::
 
FCO Lt Ryushi
@CTO: Indeed. Shall we during gamma shift, then? Perhaps a night when this ::gestures to the relatively destroyed bridge:: is all over?
 
XO Cmdr Harker
::She says to CIV, her sense of duty reasserting itself.::
 
CTO Lt Murphy
@FCO: Festivities of the moment allowing, I'd say that was a fine idea.
 
XO Cmdr Harker
::She forces the news of the 20,000 to a deep, dark, corner of her mind so she can focus.::
 
ACTION: Barpa is beamed off the station
 
XO Cmdr Harker
OPS: What happened to the inhibitors?
 
XO Cmdr Harker
::picks up her phaser and replaces it in her belt.::
 
CO Cmdr Rome
::watches the Magistrate dematerialize:: XO: Contact Starfleet.....set up a live subspace meeting with HQ...
 
OPS Ens Chambers
::frowns at the question:: XO: Commander, I do not believe they ever worked in the first place.
 
XO Cmdr Harker
CO:Aye Sir, remember we can't confirm his information...we don't know for sure...
 
CO Cmdr Rome
XO: I hope this is all just a bad dream
 
XO Cmdr Harker
::Stops and goes to contact Starfleet., glances at ops and nods sadly.::
 
CO Cmdr Rome
::tries to stand up and manages to:: OPS: Get all the senior crew back here.
 
XO Cmdr Harker
CO: Me too Sir..me too...::Works on opening a channel..::
 
CMO Ens Maui
:: looks at the readings of the CO:: CO: looks like your all back now.
 
CO Cmdr Rome
CMO: Still feels sore....but yes, better.
 
CO Cmdr Rome
CMO: Thank you Doctor.
 
CMO Ens Maui
CO: you will for a while so take it easy and I want you to have a full exam as soon as the medical facilities are back in working order
 
CO Cmdr Rome
CMO: I promise....I'll make sure to get Engineering to give you a top notch service.
