CNS_Cmd_Azhure says:
:: On the bridge, standing behind Sulek, staring out the screen, her thoughts on the shift in time.::
CTO_LtCmdr_Murphy says:
::Monitoring the sensors at Tactical::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::he looks  at his diminutive form:: CSO: So if we send an AT to the surface ::.he looks over at Kraight:: what do we pose as?  While my body can be disguised, yours and the commanders may take a bit more work.
Host ASM_Bruce says:
<CSO_LtCmdr_Starr>: CO: Well, as short as you are at the moment, we could disguise you as a shrub.
CTO_LtCmdr_Murphy says:
CO: Beg pardon Sir, but what good will that do us? If Lincoln is already dead, this timeline is buggered. How do ye fix him being dead?
CNS_Cmd_Azhure says:
:: Lifts a brow at the comment and gently shakes her head.::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Murphy: Presumably if we right the time line then quantum mechanics tell us we will also correct what has gone before.
XO_Cmdr_Kraight says:
CO: There is also the option of going further back in this timeline. There exist certain techniques for controlled temporal displacement.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Murphy: While time diverges in many directions each is a straight line of sorts.
CTO_LtCmdr_Murphy says:
CO: Wouldn't that that we prevent him from getting killed, Sir? Presumably in an earlier time?
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Kraight: If that is the case, then we will make the leap back.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Murphy: Not necessarily.  A re-righting of this timeline may correct the death. It is the nature of temporal paradox.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Murphy: Kraight is also correct. We may actually have to find the single event that caused this time shift.
CTO_LtCmdr_Murphy says:
CO: Sorry Sir, I guess I'm not that strong on Temporal Mechanics. Always gave me a headache. I just stuck to the basics, don't muck with the timeline. Having talked to Temporal Investigations twice already, I'm not keen for a rematch.
XO_Cmdr_Kraight says:
CO: And since our historical databanks contain information regarding a timeline that no longer exists, we can only determine the key event through field research.
Host ASM_Bruce says:
<CSO_LtCmdr_Starr>: If we are to correct the damage, we should beam down to get a better assessment of what damage has actually been done.
FCO_Ens_Airhart says:
OPS: Well I don't think we can learn anymore here shall we return to the bridge?
CNS_Cmd_Azhure says:
CO:  This was deliberate... the wormhole was not natural.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Azhure: While there is no hard data, I tend to agree.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Azhure: Then we might also make the logical leap that there was a reason why we were not taken to event one.
CTO_LtCmdr_Murphy says:
CO: According to the records, Lincoln was killed about 4 years too early Sir. That'd be the place ta start methinks.
OPS_LtJG_Sanchez says:
:: nods ::  FCO: This whole situation seems... curious.
CNS_Cmd_Azhure says:
:: looks at the science officer.::  CSO:  Have you searched the general area in question for non-humans?
Host ASM_Bruce says:
<CSO_LtCmdr_Starr>: CNS: No
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Murphy: It may also be that event one was a result of someone traveling from this time frame.  If we stop that person, then we may also right the event.
CNS_Cmd_Azhure says:
CSO:  That would be a good place to start.
XO_Cmdr_Kraight says:
CO: We do have the ship's sensors to work with. We could scan for chronoton signatures and other indications of temporal anomalies.
Host ASM_Bruce says:
<CSO_LtCmdr_Starr> ::Scans area for non-humans, but detects only humans, no trace of alien presence::
Host ASM_Bruce says:
<CSO_LtCmdr_Starr>: CNS/CO: Only humans on sensors. No alien presence.
FCO_Ens_Airhart says:
::Follows the OPS to the TL::OPS: There's no way this was natural but who has the power to send us here?
FCO_Ens_Airhart says:
::They enter the TL and head to the bridge.::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Kraight: Check it.  The massive amount of southern industry would seem to indicate that the change may have happened before even the death of the president.
CNS_Cmd_Azhure says:
CO:  So they came and left or in hiding somewhere.
CTO_LtCmdr_Murphy says:
CO: Seems we'll have to backtrack to the source of the event then, aye? We have the details in the LCARS.
XO_Cmdr_Kraight says:
CO: Aye, sir.
OPS_LtJG_Sanchez says:
:: shrugs :: FCO: Unnatural phenomenon, super powerful beings... I don't know.  I think that's beyond my current pay grade to know those things.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Azhure: It is one possibility.  Without a proper investigation of this time line, we cannot know if have arrived at event one.
CNS_Cmd_Azhure says:
:: nods::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::rising as much as he can:: All: We must beam down.  We will come up with a cover.  If memory serves, circus often had unique individuals called freaks.  We can, I suppose, be that.
CTO_LtCmdr_Murphy says:
CO: Beg pardon Sir, but unless we are military personnel we're unlikely to have much freedom of movement in a zone of hostilities.
XO_Cmdr_Kraight says:
CTO: We don't know yet where to start looking. We'll need access to newspaper archives, to compare events in this timeline to those of recorded history.
FCO_Ens_Airhart says:
::Nods as they step back onto the bridge.::CO: Sir what we found out is here ::Hands him a PADD:: CO: I afraid its not much...
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Murphy: Entertainers.  Perhaps we have even more opportunity, since these groups were little more than traveling vagabonds.
Host ASM_Bruce says:
<CSO_LTCmdr_Starr>: CO: We might have an easier time getting into places dressed as civilians.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::he looks at the PADD:: Airhart: It is a start.
FCO_Ens_Airhart says:
CO: Yes Sir. ::A bit disappointed they couldn't get more..
FCO_Ens_Airhart says:
::Glances around wondering whats going on up here.::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
CSO: A simple replication should solve that.
Host ASM_Bruce says:
<CSO_LtCmdr_Starr>: CO: Yes sir.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Kraight: We need a starting point. A document repository would be best.  A library would be best and probably in the area most changed from our records.  Send the data to Transporter Room 1.
FCO_Ens_Airhart says:
::Glances around hoping someone will explain whats happening..::
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::He looks at each:: All: After we have changed into the appropriate historical attire.  We move the ship into transporter range and we will determine where we need to start to correct the timeline.
CTO_LtCmdr_Murphy says:
CO: Standard AT equipment and defensive weapons Sir?
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Murphy: Yes... but well hidden.
XO_Cmdr_Kraight says:
CO: The logical location to start would be Washington DC.
CTO_LtCmdr_Murphy says:
CO: Aye Sir.
CTO_LtCmdr_Murphy says:
::Heads for the armory to draw the required phasers and equipment::
Host ASM_Bruce says:
<CSO_LtCmdr_Starr>: ::sees look on FCO:: FCO: We're beaming down to fix history if we can.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Murphy: You may also replicate standard weapons of the period.
CTO_LtCmdr_Murphy says:
::Nods from the TL::
FCO_Ens_Airhart says:
::Looks at the CSO in the CO's body::CSO: I see thank you Sir.
FCO_Ens_Airhart says:
CSO: How is it broken?
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Kraight: Find us an inconspicuous place to land.
Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
All: We meet in Transporter Room 1 in ten minutes.
Host ASM_Bruce says:
<CSO_LtCmdr_Starr> FCO: Historical facts out of place. Events happening or happened before their rightful time ::heads for TL::
FCO_Ens_Airhart says:
::Checks herself and smiles in relief.::
CTO_LtCmdr_Murphy says:
::Arrives in the armory and pulls up the specs for an 1860 Colt Dragoon .44 cal. revolver and replicates enough for the AT and ammo for each, as well as a large sheath knife from the period for everyone::
FCO_Ens_Airhart says:
CSO: Yes sir. ::pulls up the local history on a PADD and begins reading as she follows.::
FCO_Ens_Airhart says:
::When they get to the transporter room, the FCO gets  the proper clothes then disappears for a few minutes to change, she comes back looking uncomfortable in the lady's riding habit....::

ACTION: The crew finds themselves feeling strange for the moment, then come to realize that they are now in their rightful bodies, as a result of the pattern buffers of the transporter unit.

Host CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::he looks down to noting that his head is much further from the ground::
CNS_Cmd_Azhure says:
:: shifts slightly in her costume, rather uncomfortable::
