TIME LAPSE SINCE LAST MISSION: 30 Mins

Episode #633: "A Beam of Light" Part VI: Previously on Arcadia: Nyira Santiago is lost in time, somewhere in the past. The Arcadia Crew has narrowed it down to 32 possible points in space-time where she could possibly be. With some work on the transporter from Takor and Peterson, the crew is ready to start beaming into the past to look for Nyira.  They are breaking up into small teams. The teams will beam to a point in space time, and scan for signs of temporal transports other than their own, or Nyira's life signs.  If they find either, they will activate a dampener to temporarily shield them from automatic beam back 1 minute later. If they are failed to be beamed back, Arcadia will assume they found a match and retry beam outs every hour after that point until they retrieve the team. The teams are beaming a transport signal amplifier with them in order to make it easier to lock onto their out of temporal phase signatures to beam them back. Bodine and Takor are about to go on a Pad now to beam to one of those locations.
Captain John E. Bodine: 	
Captain’s Log, Stardate 11308.05: We have so far come up empty in our search for Nyira Santiago We will not top till we have erupted all reasonable possibilities however. Today I plan to take my team aboard an NX class starship one of the Federations first real exploration class Starships. I have a good feeling today is going to be the day.

Captain John E. Bodine:
::in the transporter room:: TRC: We have the coordinates on that NX class ship?

Chief Engineering Officer Lieutenant JG Jadera Takor:
::checks her equipment waiting for next transport.::

Transporter Room Chief Lieutenant Lazuli:
CO: Yes sir ready whenever you are. ::she rubs the side of her stomach where she feels her baby kicking as she waits for the go ahead::

Captain John E. Bodine:
TRC: Okay, these ships were small. I am going to need uniforms appropriate for Engineering, a Pilot and Myself I will also go Engineering. Ranks Lt Jg for me and Ensign for Takor and Doole. These were small ships I don't want to push my luck with any higher ranks.

Chief Engineering Officer Lieutenant JG Jadera Takor:
::Thinks to self, "Well at least I get to be an Ensign again"::

Transporter Room Chief Lieutenant Lazuli:
CO: Of Course sir ::she programs the transporter with the specifications the Captain gave her:: 

Chief Engineering Officer Lieutenant JG Jadera Takor:
::Steps onto the transporter pad::

Captain John E. Bodine:
ALL: Okay lets go. ::steps on the transporter pad::

Flight Control Officer Ensign JT Doole: 
::steps onto the transporter pad in his pilot uniform::

Captain John E. Bodine:
::when everyone us on:: TRC: Energize

Transporter Room Chief Lieutenant Lazuli:
::slides her fingers on the controls to beam the away team to the NX Ship::

ACTION: The temporal transport occurs and the trio appears in pre-federation Starfleet uniforms in the middle of a Jeffries Tube, right below the gravity sweet spot (chosen to make sure they don't beam into a populated area)

Captain John E. Bodine:
::climbs up into the large chamber just above them and feels oddly lighter::

Chief Engineering Officer Lieutenant JG Jadera Takor:
::Checks to make sure their devices are working so they won't set off intruder alerts. Then begins to scan::

Transporter Room Chief Lieutenant Lazuli:
@::Sets a timer for 2 Mins::

Chief Engineering Officer Lieutenant JG Jadera Takor:
CO: Sir I'm not sure I understand these readings...::Pauses:: CO: We have Nyira's DNA, but no signs of temporal transport other than ours, and the DNA doesn't seem to be a full match. Maybe a relative?

Flight Control Officer Ensign JT Doole: 
CO: Well, we are here. Questions is, Where and When?

Captain John E. Bodine:
ALL: I was pretty sure I read these ships had gravity feck plates but this place seems to be malfunctioning.

CEO: You sure it is not her?

Flight Control Officer Ensign JT Doole: 
CO: Then might I suggest we find a way to fix said malfunction?

ACTION: as Captain Bodine enters the sweet spot he suddenly flies up towards the ceiling and "lands" on the ceiling

Chief Engineering Officer Lieutenant JG Jadera Takor:
CO: Attempting to confirm..::Also lands on ceiling but manages to hold on to the tricorder::

FCO: Try your tricorder please I want to make sure it’s not in error...

Captain John E. Bodine:
::he hits belly first and not on his feet due to lack of practice:: Self Hmmpff ::he lets out a grunt and then rights himself in the upper corner or was it now the lower? he looks up and sees Takor and Doole above him::

Chief Engineering Officer Lieutenant JG Jadera Takor:
CO: Attempting to confirm Sir.

Captain John E. Bodine:
ALL: Well this is fun.

Flight Control Officer Ensign JT Doole: 
::looks up at the Captain:: CO: Nice.

Captain John E. Bodine:
FCO: I think there might be a Zero G spot on the ship, that or something is wrong.

Flight Control Officer Ensign JT Doole: 
::shakes head and tries tricorder:: CO: Any ideas on how to get you down?

Captain John E. Bodine:
::pushed off the ceiling and attempts to sail toward his officers::

Chief Engineering Officer Lieutenant JG Jadera Takor:
::Checks her tricorder with a quick diagnostic::

Flight Control Officer Ensign JT Doole: 
::checking tricorder readings to either confirm that the DNA is Nyira’s or not::

Captain John E. Bodine:
ALL: Hopefully like this .....! ::hopes someone catches him::

ACTION: when the CO pushes off, he again "falls" back to the rest of his team

Flight Control Officer Ensign JT Doole: 
CEO: Same result as yours. It could or could not be Nyira

ACTION: The CO lands on Doole

Captain John E. Bodine:
::lands on Doole's face::

Chief Engineering Officer Lieutenant JG Jadera Takor:
::Looks up from her tricorder just in time to see the fall,::CO: Sir I..::Dodges to the side getting out of the way:: CO/FCO: You guys alright? ::looks for lost Visor...

Flight Control Officer Ensign JT Doole: 
::muffled because his face is in the CO's chest:: CO: Brilliant, sir. Brilliant.

Captain John E. Bodine:
FCO: Sorry about that Mister Doole.

INFO: The 2 minute time is almost up, a decision needs to be made, stay or go

Flight Control Officer Ensign JT Doole: 
::positions this hands onto the CO's chest and "bench presses" the Captain off him and holds him, till he can stand upright::

Captain John E. Bodine:
ALL: Okay we have to stay and be sure. Let’s move out of transporter range. ::moves down the corridor the other way::

Transporter Room Chief Lieutenant Lazuli:
@::prepares to beam the away team back::

Chief Engineering Officer Lieutenant JG Jadera Takor:
::Follows CO::

Captain John E. Bodine:
::deactivates the beacon::
 
::looks for a hatch to the main corridor of their current deck::

Transporter Room Chief Lieutenant Lazuli:
@::slides her fingers on the controls::

ACTION: The Transport does not complete, clearly they deactivated their beacons again

Chief Engineering Officer Lieutenant JG Jadera Takor:
::Continues to scan, keeping eyes out for others...::

Captain John E. Bodine:
::after a few moments he locates a hatch and tries o think up a quick story about repairs in case anyone is there when he opens the hatch after a quick breath he opens the access to the deck corridor::

Transporter Room Chief Lieutenant Lazuli:
@::prepares an hourly timer::

Flight Control Officer Ensign JT Doole: 
CO: The DNA source is on the bridge

Captain John E. Bodine:
CEO: Take point follow your readings an mask the tricorder as much as possible/

Chief Engineering Officer Lieutenant JG Jadera Takor:
CO: It already looks period Sir..::Shows him the old school tricorder looking device.::CO: On the bridge are the traces Sir.... ::Doesn't feel like it’s her friend but is all for being sure....::

Captain John E. Bodine:
FCO: Okay we will start there.

ALL: Let’s move we only have an hour, less now.

Flight Control Officer Ensign JT Doole: 
::starts down the corridor, hoping to run into a Turbolift::

Chief Engineering Officer Lieutenant JG Jadera Takor:
::Follows CO, keeping alert:: CO/FCO: I hate to suggest this but perhaps one of us go to the bridge to look? I mean three of us might look odd to them?

Flight Control Officer Ensign JT Doole: 
CO/CEO: I'll go

CO: Well if it's all right with you, that is

Captain John E. Bodine:
FCO: Okay, be careful

Flight Control Officer Ensign JT Doole: 
CO/CEO: You two as well. ::heads off::

Captain John E. Bodine:
CEO: He had a valid point. Let’s check the ships mess.

::heads off toward the Mess::

Chief Engineering Officer Lieutenant JG Jadera Takor:
:CO: Aye Sir but why the Mess? ::Looks vaguely puzzled.::

::Follows after giving FCO a thumbs up::

Flight Control Officer Ensign JT Doole: 
::finds what appears to be a lift of some kind: Lift: Bridge

Captain John E. Bodine:
CEO: I don't know must be the explorer in me and I have nothing better do. Standing around the elevator the bridge waiting on the ensign just looks as suspicious.

ACTION: The lift doesn't respond

Flight Control Officer Ensign JT Doole: 
::when nothing happens, he remembers he has to push a button first::

Self: Damn arcane technology. ::finds the button and pushes it:: Lift: Bridge

Captain John E. Bodine:
::finds a door labeled Officer's mess and casually enters::

Chief Engineering Officer Lieutenant JG Jadera Takor:
CO: Aye Sir, I guess I'm just worried the longer we're the longer we may mess something up...I couldn't be at my Grandmother's an hour before breaking something...:: She looks around carefully::

::Follows CO, trying to act like she belongs.::

Captain John E. Bodine:
CEO: Isn't this amazing? This was real space pioneering right here ..

ACTION: This time the lift responds to the Ensign and takes him to the bridge, when he emerges on the bridge he sees Nyira wearing a Sciences uniform with lieutenants’ bars and sitting at the Communications station, an earpiece in her ear, clearly engrossed in her work.

Captain John E. Bodine:
::looks around at other officers in the mess but does not linger on anyone in particular for very long he finds a receptacle with a piece of lemon meringue pie grabs a plate for himself and Takor and finds a seat at a small table in the corner where they can observe::

Chief Engineering Officer Lieutenant JG Jadera Takor:
CO: We used Solar Sail Ships years before this....

::She observes mildly and somewhat pleased.::

Flight Control Officer Ensign JT Doole: 
::says nothing to startle her:: ::uses the tricorder to beep out a message back to the CEO:: ::message:: Found her, I think. Get to bridge a.s.a.p. remember to push button on lift BEFORE saying destination.

Captain John E. Bodine:
::smiles:: CEO: I heard Captain Benjamin Sisko made one of those.

::takes a bite of his pie when his pocket beeps::

::pulls out his comm unit and reads::

Flight Control Officer Ensign JT Doole: 
::keeping an eye on Nyira, but staying out of her sight::

Chief Engineering Officer Lieutenant JG Jadera Takor:
CO: The Emissary was quite a clever man...:: she replied smugly laying a Bajoran Claim to Sisko, then stops looking at her tricorder. The smile fades.::CO: Best go then...

Captain John E. Bodine:
CEO: Doole thinks he found her working a console. Does that make sense to you?

Chief Engineering Officer Lieutenant JG Jadera Takor:
CO: If it’s a family member its possible, but I don't know if she had any here or not...

Captain John E. Bodine:
::types out a response:: *FCO*: Approach her and ask her name very casually.

NX Captain Timbers:
COM: Nyira, have you been able to translate that text we downloaded from the alien ship yet?

Captain John E. Bodine:
::gets up:: CEO: Right lets go.

Chief Engineering Officer Lieutenant JG Jadera Takor:
::Follows::CO: maybe he could ask her if she knows Arcadia Station or better yet maybe scan her for chroton particles, they would hold in the body for a while I would think?::Not a medico so not entirely sure::

Flight Control Officer Ensign JT Doole: 
::types back:: *CO*: Acknowledged.

Captain John E. Bodine:
CEO: So you are one who believed Sisko was divinely chosen then? ::trying to sound curious not judgmental::

NX Communications Officer Lieutenant Nyira Santiago:
CO_Timbers: All most finished sir it seems to have multiple dialects weaved throughout it. 

Chief Engineering Officer Lieutenant JG Jadera Takor:
::Nods, surprised by the question::CO: Aye Sir.

Flight Control Officer Ensign JT Doole: 
::approaches Nyira casually as if he's part of the crew::

Captain John E. Bodine:
CEO: Let’s find a couple tool kits before we head to the bridge. We need look like we have a reason to be there.

Chief Engineering Officer Lieutenant JG Jadera Takor:
CO: If I remember right there are portable kits in damage control closets. ::Looks around trying to recall where the nearest ones would be...
