TIME LAPSE SINCE LAST MISSION: Two Weeks

"Ferengoth, Part I": A distress call was sent out from a Ferengi vessel, and by the time a rescue vessel arrived, it was completely devoid of power.  The crew was unconscious and nearly dead after life support completely failed.  The rescue vessel's crew was able to stabilize most of the Ferengi crew, who have not yet regained consciousness.  The vessel is being towed to Arcadia Station, where the crew will investigate the cause for the loss of power, and offer repairs if the Ferengi request it.

OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
::in Operations::
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
Sulek: I plan on taking a team over in environmental suits, Captain.
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn: I wise precaution. So do we offer to bill the Ferengi to meet cultural expectations?
CSec_Cmdr_Powers says:
:: In the security office, thinking that any time he's here, there's never a moment to himself. Extra security is on call, to patrol the docking ports and locations where Sulek decides to let the little midgets roam ::
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
Sulek: Absolutely. I would like all of the Romulan Ale on their ship. Which is now ours under the rules of acquisition.
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
*CEO*: The crippled Ferengi ship will be into port shortly
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn: XO, Romulan Ale is a prohibited substance. I believe as the commanding officer I am supposed to pretend not to know about such things.
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::just looks at Sulek funny::
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
*OPS*: Understood, teams are standing by.
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
*CEO*: Please assemble a team in environmental suits. We're going to be beaming over, as we don't want their ship to be physically docked to the station. Meet us in transporter room on as soon as the ship is here.
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn: My idle banter, I am afraid, still needs work. Nevertheless, you can probably expect protest from the Ferengi about us "small lobes" stealing their secret technology...etc.
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
Sulek: Am I really supposed to care?
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
*CSec* Please report to operations
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
*XO*: Aye Sir. ::Prepares a team of three including herself then heads to the transporter room::
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
*CEO*: Sounds good best test the air before we allow the ship to fully dock we may not want to exchange air with the ship till we know what occurred over there.
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn: Just don't let them wrangle you into a deal.
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
Sulek: You seem to have forgotten basically everything about me captain.
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
::puts the docking port the ship was assigned under strict quarantine::
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
*OPS*: Understood, we'll take precautions.
CSec_Cmdr_Powers says:
:: As he finishes giving last minute orders, his combadge goes off, and Pangborn's voice comes out of it. Bill sighs, then taps the delta :: *XO*: With all due respect, do I have to? Kinda busy down here.
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
::Arrives at the transporter room with two other engineers, all carrying gear::
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
*CSec*: Report now.
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn: And remind them that as we have control of their ship we could I suppose claim it as a part of Rules of Acquisition on space salvage.
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
XO: I have quarantined and isolated the docking area.
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn: The point is that I haven't forgotten and like it or not we have a certain diplomatic obligation on a station.
Ironic_OPS_Quint says:
#COM: Arcadia: This is the USS Ironic requesting permission to tow the derelict Ferengi vessel to your ship yards.
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
::The engineer team re-checks each other's safety gear while they wait.::
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
OPS: Do not...I repeat...do not allow that port to be opened. For now we will be beaming over.
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
Sulek: Diplomacy...your strong suit captain, not mine.
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::hides a grin::
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
XO: Of course sir. Just getting a comm from the Ironic, they are dropping off their package at the shipyard.
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn: Indeed.
CSec_Cmdr_Powers says:
:: Mutters some vulgar things under his breath as he begrudgingly gets into a turbolift ::
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn: My hearing is also still good. ::REB::
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
COM: USS Ironic: Understood, has your crew been aboard the Ferengi vessel?
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
*CSec*: Belay that last order - the ship is here. We will be beaming over in environmental suits. Meet the team in transporter room one.
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
*XO*: Engineering team reports ready in transporter room, Sir.
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Ops: Prepare to have the Crew transferred to sickbay with quarantine protocols.
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
Sulek: With your permission....::motions to the exit::
CSec_Cmdr_Powers says:
:: Mutters more vulgar things ::
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Pangborn: Of course...and I have missed you.
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
::She reports as they finish their last checks and continue to wait, "By the Prophets these suits are hot" she thinks..::
CSec_Cmdr_Powers says:
*XO*: I'll be right there.... SIR. :: Extra emphasis ::
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
::contacts sickbay and makes the arrangements:: CO: Yes Sir.
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
*CEO*: Standby. We'll be right there. Sulek: I'll keep an open comm. ::exits::
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
*XO*: Aye Sir. Takor out.
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
CO: Should we beam the sick over here first or beam our people over there first?
Ironic_OPS_Quint says:
#COM: OPS: Yes, we have had an away team aboard the vessel, the team has been in quarantine along with the Ferengi crew since returning to the ship
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::enters the lift an requests transporter room one:
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
EO_Dayton: Did you bring the replace ODN manifolds? I don't want to have to come back here.
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Chambers: Notify security and then move the Ferengi crew first. Let's give the XO and his team a clear in before we tell the Ferengi.
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
COM: Ironic: And how fairs your away team, and will you be requesting docking instructions with Arcadia Station?
EO_Dayton says:
::nodding:: CEO: And I brought the all-purpose oscillating actuator to help with the differing frequencies..
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
::Nods::
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
CO: Yes sir. ::after sickbay reports they are ready he attempts to safely beam the Ferengi crew to the station in quarantine::
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::exits the lift, and heads for the transporter room::
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Chambers: Remember if the crew of the Ironic did not quarantine the Ferengi, they will need to be cleared before entering the station.

ACTION: The Ferengi crew is beamed into quarantine

CSec_Cmdr_Powers says:
:: Having arrived in the transporter room, Bill waits for the others ::
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
*XO/CEO*: Your teams should be clear to beam over are you ready Commander?
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
*OPS*: Acknowledged.
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
::enters the transporter room, nods to the team, and puts on his suit:: *OPS*: We're almost ready. One minute.
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
::Goes to stand on the transporter pad, waiting with the rest of her team.::
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::moving toward TL:: Chambers: I will go and greet our guests. You have the Conn.
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
::beams the away team with the XO and CEO over to the Ferengi ship somewhere near the forward section::
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::enters TL:: Medical.
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
::transfers basic command functions to his console::
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
*CEO*: I read a report that there may be an issue with the ODN system over there let me know if you need a computer specialist I will try and drum one up.
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
@::looks around:: CEO: Head to engineering with your team and see what you can figure out. CSec: You and I will check the bridge.
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
@XO: Aye Sir.
CSec_Cmdr_Powers says:
@XO: How many aboard?
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
*XO*: I have Operations, the Captain has gone down to the infirmary. I will keep a dedicated line open for your teams.
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
@CSec: You mean other than us? The Ferengi were almost dead, and were evacuated to quarantine
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
@*OPS*: Understood
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
@::using their lighting Takor and her team carefully make their way to where the schematics say engineering should be.:: Engineering Team: Watch for sharp edges I do not want anyone spending time locked in sickbay for a lockdown...
CSec_Cmdr_Powers says:
@XO: Did anyone notify security?!? :: Sends a message to the security office to make sure some people get themselves down to Sickbay immediately ::
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
@CSec: I'm certain all precautions were taken. ::moves toward where he thinks the bridge might be::
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
@::Keeping her eyes open orders a team member to scan continuously. Nodding one does so::
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::arrives deck and walks to the infirmary::
CSec_Cmdr_Powers says:
@:: Levels the XO with a stare :: XO: I'm not... but what can you do at this point.
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
::after a thought he considers it might be wise to look over the Transporter logs:: Self: Now let's see if you brought anything back with you that the transporter picked up... ::looks over the data::
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
@arrives in engineering and does a quick recon of the area.::
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
@CSec: They're all still unconscious. Probably not a threat. The bridge should be....up from here. ::sees a ladder:: I guess we climb.
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::moves to the Infirmary door and nods to the security person there::
CSec_Cmdr_Powers says:
@XO: Commander, do not underestimate anyone.

ACTION: Engineering reports strange power fluctuations on the Ironic

XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
@CSec: Noted
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
@::attempts to check systems, finding area clear.::
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
@::Sends one team member to prep the portable generator while she and Dayton see what they have to work with.::
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
@::arrives on the bridge and takes a look around:: CSec: See if you can access their tactical logs. We need to find out what happened.
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::after a moment enters and crosses to the nearest doctor::
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
@::looks at the uncomfortable looking chairs, leans over and sees if he can access the captain's logs::
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
MO: How are the patients?
CSec_Cmdr_Powers says:
@:: Glancing around the consoles, he tries to guess which one is going to be the most useful ::
Ironic_OPS_Quint says:
#COM: Arcadia: Arcadia, something's wrong, engineering is reporting power fluctuations

ACTION: Power fails on the Ironic

CEO_Ens_Takor says:
@*XO*:We're getting no power, we're hooking up a portable generator and I'm checking the linkages see if there's a burnt out part or some such.
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
@::While one preps the generator she and Dayton check the power relays.::
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
@*CEO*: Same here. Have the station beam over some generators, to see if we can get things up at all. I'll need two of them on the bridge.
MO_Ens_Selara says:
Sulek: We are checking them now. I will let you know.
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
*XO*: Understood sir, we only brought the one. I'll see to it. Takor out.
CSec_Cmdr_Powers says:
@XO: Might need more than two. What's powering the computer core?
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::he steps back and waits::
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
@COM: *Station Ops*: Takor on the Ferengi vessel requesting two more portable generators for the bridge.
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
@CSec: Good point. *CEO*: Prioritize getting the computer core up. Have on of your team try tying a generator directly into it.
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
@*XO*: Just what we're trying Sir. Moment.
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
*CEO*: Understood, 60 seconds.
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
EO_Vi'tek: Almost ready? ::The little engineer nods as she finishes hooking it up.::
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
@*OPS*: Thank You Ops. Takor Out.
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
::calls down to supply and has a deckhand place two portable generators on a transport pad and once he gets the word he attempts to send them to the Takor::
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
@*XO*: 1 minute to more generators and we're ready to turn ours on. We've just checked it so if this doesn't work, we've got a leaper.
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
@::nods to the engineer to who powers up the generator after checking again its connections.::
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
@*CEO*: Thanks. Let me know.

ACTION: The Ferengi Captain wakes up in Sickbay

Daimon_Parn says:
All: Where am I?
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
@*XO*: Sir we're showing full power from the generator but its not reaching the consoles, we're going to have to back track the blockage.
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
@::danm it:: *CEO*: Then we're not likely to have any better luck up here.
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
@::Glares at the console annoyed as though it is personally responsible.::
MO_Ens_Selara says:
Sulek: It looks like one of them is awake. He is shielded so it should be safe to go in, Sir.
@CEO_Ens_Takor says:
*XO*: Aye Sir.
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::nods and walks through the door where one confused Ferengi has several med techs hovering about::
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
::approaching the biobed:: Ferengi: I am Captain Sulek. You are on Arcadia Station. You were brought here following your distress call.
Daimon_Parn says:
CO: Station? Where is my ship?
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
::opens a secure data socket over subspace in order to receive an upload from the Ferengi computer core::
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Ferengi: It is safe in our shipyard. It has no power but we towed it here. By your insignia are you the Damian of the ship?
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
@::They discuss a plan for a moment then Dayton kneels and takes the panel off of the related console and begins checking systems, EO_Vi'tek works elsewhere as does Takor. Takor starts at the end, the console and back tracks, Dayton goes from the innermost and works his way out, they all work well as a team, trying to find the short.::
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
::sends the socket information to the CEO's Tricorder::
Daimon_Parn says:
CO: And what is it going to cost me to get my ship back?
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Ferengi: We will negotiate price for ship, tow and other details later. We must first know what happened.
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
@::ties in one of the generators to the captain's console and attempts to access the logs::
CEO_Ens_Takor says:
@::pauses in her checks to pull out her tricorder, seeing the message. She quickly reviews it.::
XO_Cmdr_Pangborn says:
@CSec: Are you having any luck? ::waits for his generator to kick in::
CSec_Cmdr_Powers says:
@XO: Nothing yet, Commander.
CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Ferengi: I will give you a detailed bill later. I must make sure that what happened to you does not happen to us. Now your name and what happened would be a good start.
Daimon_Parn says:
CO: I am Daimon Parn. Our ship started having power fluctuations. I sent out a distress call, next thing I know, we were dead in the water
Daimon_Parn says:
CO: How convenient that you should happen upon us, perhaps you are the reason this happened

ACTION: Arcadia Engineering reports mild power fluctuations: lights are flickering in the shops on the Promenade

CO_Capt_Sulek says:
Parn: You can save the paranoid line for later negotiations. I am not some trader from the Pakleds. What were you doing when these fluctuations occurred?
OPS_Lt_Chambers says:
::gets the report from Engineering and pulls up a status display of the ODN network to make sure all is in the green::

ACTION: The engineering team is able to power up a console on the Ferengi vessel and logs start transferring, recording power fluctuations, and then nothing

Daimon_Parn says:
CO: We were en route home after a successful business dealing.

ACTION: Lights in the infirmary go out
