CSO_Rillian says:
#*XO*: No, Sir.  I'm sorry to report we haven't.  Looking into some spores now.

FCO-T’Shara says:
CO:  We will pass through the concentration in 5 minutes sir.

CTO-Mark-Anthony says:
# *CSO*: Yes I think I can.

CO_Torbin says:
FCO: Dose it pose any threat to us?

CSO_Rillian says:
#*CTO*: Then let's do it........take every precaution necessary.

OPS_Sorvik says:
Thumbelina:  Scan the ship to find out wither or not the fissures started inside the Kelly or from the outside.

XO_Hall says:
@COM: Claymore:  *CO*:  I will do that sir.  Stand by...

Host Steve says:
<Nurse>  CMO:  Yes....very.  I haven’t been able to sleep much since....well....

FCO-T’Shara says:
CO:  Checking on that now sir.

EO_Hayward says:

CSO_Rillian says:
#EO: They were?  It's possible that thawing them out activated something in them.......causing them to do what they did.........

XO_Hall says:
@*CSO*  How are the survivors holding up?  And have you scanned them for the problem?

FCO-T’Shara says:
CO:  Sir from my scans the concentration poses no threat.

EO_Hayward says:
#CSO: I suggest we activate internal sensors at maximum, and thaw them out. It's risky.........::Has a slight tremor in his voice:: We can analyze the from a safe distance. Hopefully.

CO_Torbin says:
::Nods to the FCO::

TECH_Thumbelina says:
FCO: Apparently the Kelly believe so as well.. I suggest we not copy their fate..

FCO-T’Shara says:
CO: We will pass through the concentration in 3 minutes sir.

CSO_Rillian says:
#*XO*: You'll have to ask the CMO about that, Sir......They are all back on the Claymore.

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
@ *Hall* Tyfair to Hall, sir, the micro-fractures will have to be repaired from the outside.  Permission to take a Sphinx out and get them patched up.

CSO_Rillian says:
#*CTO*: Any answers, Mr. Anthony?

CO_Torbin says:
OPS: When the DeForest Kelly passed through the concentration, can you tell if they had shields raised or not?

XO_Hall says:
@*CEO*  Standby Mr. Tyfair.  I am scanning the hull for Micro-fissures...

CTO-Mark-Anthony says:
# *CSO*: My scans show them to be at room temperature now.

CSO_Rillian says:
#*CTO*: That may be our answer.

OPS_Sorvik says:
CO:  I will check their logs sir.  ::Access the Kelly’s status logs to se if the shields where raised during the time of the birth.::

CTO-Mark-Anthony says:
# *CSO*: I can re-freeze them if need to be.

XO_Hall says:
@*CEO*  Do you have any idea as to what caused the micro-factures?

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
@ *Hall* I've already located them sir.  Erected containment fields, I want to go outside and fixed them.

CSO_Rillian says:
#*CTO*: Lets.......

CTO-Mark-Anthony says:
# *CSO*: Aye.

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
@ *Hall* No clue sir, from the readings I would say micrometeor impacts.

XO_Hall says:
@COM:  CLAYMORE: *CO*  Hall to Torbin.  The fissures that I have found on the hull Captain, have been sealed from the inside.

FCO-T’Shara says:
::Continues monitoring navigational sensors and keeping an eye on the incoming concentration.::

OPS_Sorvik says:
CO:  Sir the logs indicate that the Kelly’s shields were down during the time of the birth.

CTO-Mark-Anthony says:
# Computer: Lower the temperature to -35 degrees Celsius.

XO_Hall says:
@*CEO*  Estimated time of repair Mr. Tyfair?

CSO_Rillian says:
#*CTO*: I want an analysis of those spores........could they have caused what we saw here?  Maybe laid dormant when they were frozen?

CMO_Endo says:
::An idea pops into his head:: *MO*: By any chance do you have scans from a living person on board the ship that was not one of the survivors?

TECH_Thumbelina says:
::Looks up:; CO: which means the fissures reached the interior of the ship.. a contaminate could have as well

Host Steve says:

CIV_Neoma_Jazz says:
CMO:  So far... she had a normal  prenatal, and then birth,  death of crew happened 10 minutes after the birth, then she is fine now.  During birth she was coursing with endorphins but  this is all not making sense.

CO_Torbin says:
OPS: Noted..  raise ours then..

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
@ *Hall* Won't know until I get outside, but I shouldn't take long.

CTO-Mark-Anthony says:
# *CSO*: I have lowered the temperature in the cargo bay to -35 degrees Celsius is that ok?

MO-Hunter says:
#CMO: No, Sir. But let me scan the CSO.

OPS_Sorvik says:

CO_Torbin says:
*XO* Noted

OPS_Sorvik says:
CO:  Shields raised.

CSO_Rillian says:
#*CTO*: Yes.

CTO-Mark-Anthony says:
# *CSO*: They could have. We won't know more until we runs some test on these spores.

CSO_Rillian says:
#*CMO*: We suspect that a micro-bio-spore is causing what happened over here.  It was activated by the temperatures on the which were below freezing.

CMO_Endo says:

XO_Hall says:
@::Activates the computer at the OPS console.::  Computer:  Computer, what was the last date of the captain's log?

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
@ ::Climbs into the small pod and launches, remotely opening the shuttle bay doors::

# *CSO*: Ok.

Host Steve says:
@ <computer> Hall:  Stardate 10011.12

CSO_Rillian says:
#*CMO*: I said a micro-spore may have caused this.  When it was outside the Kelly it was frozen. When it was brought on board it may have thawed causing this.

OPS_Sorvik says:
CO:  Sir the Kelly's logs indicate that the fissures were derived from the last particle storm.  They were caused by micrometeors and hi velocity dust particles.

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
@  ::Brings the sphinx around to the cargo bay area and surveys the damage to the hull::

XO_Hall says:
Computer:  Computer, can you play the captain's last official duty log for Stardate 10011.12?

FCO-T’Shara says:
CO:  The concentration will be passing through the Claymore in 30 seconds.

CIV_Neoma_Jazz says:
CMO:  Doc lock the door  and don't let anyone in or out.   Oh and make sure you have your will written.

CSO_Rillian says:
#*CTO*: Find out what chemicals it may produce.....if any of them are known to harden tissue and let me know.

CMO_Endo says:
*CSO*: So it becomes active when it thaws?

Host Steve says:
ACTION:  THE NURSE STARTS GOING INTO HYSTERICS, SCREAMING FOR HER BABY

CSO_Rillian says:
*CMO*: Yes.....it very well might......that's my best theory.

OPS_Sorvik says:
CO:  I'm working on a theory now sir.   However the spores may have escaped through the fissures.  We should inform Starfleet to quarantine this area.

CO_Torbin says:
*XO* I need answers Commander..  the dog that beamed over from the DeForest Kelly has just died..  likely from the same thing that killed the crew over there...

CMO_Endo says:

TECH_Thumbelina says:
CO: The containment has most likely.. ::Looks at the sensor and pauses:: came into the ship through the holes in the hall.. what is Caleb doing on the Kelly hull?

EO_Hayward says:
#CSO: It's possible they may only be active at a very specific temperature. Maybe somewhere between frozen and thawed.

CO_Torbin says:
::Nods::  OPS: Have a beacon prepared while you work on that theory

CMO_Endo says:
::Tries to calm the nurse down:: Nurse: Your baby is fine.

<Nurse>  CMO:  You shut up!  I want my baby NOW!

CSO_Rillian says:
#*CTO*: Try cooking those things......raise the temp and see what happens!

CIV_Neoma_Jazz says:
*CO*:  Sickbay is in lock down.  The Doc is with the nurse I'm am outside the quarantine field, and I'm not letting the CMO out.

EO_Hayward says:
#::Blushes::

OPS_Sorvik says:
CO:  Aye, Sir.  ::Prepares a Starfleet beacon with a quarantine message.::

CMO_Endo says:
Nurse: He's right here, though

XO_Hall says:
@*CO*  The CSO and her team is working on it now.  Is everything quarantined?

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
@ ::Orients the Sphinx in the proper position to begin the hull replication sweep::

XO_Hall says:
@*CSO*  Hall to Rillian.  I have just been informed that the dog from the Kelly that was beamed over to the Claymore had died.

CSO_Rillian says:
#*CTO*: Well we need to kill them.......find out how we can.

XO_Hall says:
@*CSO*  Have you made any progress?

CO_Torbin says:
*XO* Already ordered Sickbay to be completely locked down, so it should be..  and general notice, we have our shields raised now..  Mr. Sorvik was able to determine that the DeForest Kelly went through a concentration in the nebula with shields down, so we're going through with shields up

CMO_Endo says:
CIV: Scan me and the air inside the quarantine field, see what spores you can find

CSO_Rillian says:
#*XO*: Please tell me you are kidding, Will......

CSO_Rillian says:
#Self: Damn.....

CMO_Endo says:
CIV: And scan the dog too

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
@ *Thumbelina* Why?  I'm almost done with these repairs.

CIV_Neoma_Jazz says:
::Runs scan from out side the quarantine area, on all that is inside::

XO_Hall says:
@*CSO*  I wished I were Kaly.  The Captain is wanting answers, and I have none to give.

CO_Torbin says:
OPS: Shouldn't be necessary, but be sure that the door to sickbay is indeed secured properly

MO-Hunter says:
#CSO: could we try irradiating them? maybe the extreme temperature would kill them?

CSO_Rillian says:
#*CMO*: The spores we encountered contain microbes that are infecting the people........Mr. Anthony can send your our best detailed scan.

CTO-Mark-Anthony says:
# *XO*: Suggest we put on the Bio hazard warning beacon sir. Until we can find a cure for these spores and what ever else it is.

CO_Torbin says:
*CMO/CIV* If you don't have answers for me yet, I suggest you get me some..  and I don't mean hours from now either...

TECH_Thumbelina says:
*CEO*: we are about to encounter the cause of the fissures and there is a 2.09% chance the shields will not protect you.. '

CSO_Rillian says:
#MO: I agree.......that's our best chance........look into it coordinate with the CTO.

CMO_Endo says:
*CSO*: Please have him do that... any tear in my suit probably would mean I'm next

Host Steve says:
<Nurse>  ::becomes more lucid, cuddling the child::

CIV_Neoma_Jazz says:
*CO*: I’m already working on it from my end.  I'm not sure what the Doc is doing though

CSO_Rillian says:
#*CTO*: How are they cooking, Mr. Anthony

FCO-T’Shara says:
CO:  We are passing through the nebula concentration now sir.

CO_Torbin says:
OPS: Can we extend our shields around the DeForest Kelly and Mr. Tyfair out on the hull without causing problems?

XO_Hall says:
@*CTO*  I am in complete agreement.  Activate it now.

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
@ *Thumbelina* Well, I'm almost done.. how much time do I have.  And if we do get caught, beam me out.

CMO_Endo says:
*CO*: We're hurrying sir, believe me, I have every intention of finishing this ASAP

TECH_Thumbelina says:
*CEO*: 0 seconds..

MO-Hunter says:
#CTO:: Mr. Anthony, Ensign Hunter here, is there anyway to irradiate the hull of the Kelly and Kill the spores that way?

CTO-Mark-Anthony says:

CSO_Rillian says:
#*CMO*: I'm trying

CTO-Mark-Anthony says:
# Computer: Activate the Bio Hazard warning beacon of the USS DeForest Kelly Level 1 status.

OPS_Sorvik says:
CO: Sir the Akira was not designed to extend her shields out farther than 10 meters.

CO_Torbin says:
OPS: Distance from us to the other ship?

TECH_Thumbelina says:
*CEO*: Because you are in danger and the Captain asked me to.

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
@ *Thumbelina* Well, I'm almost back inside anyways.  Tyfair out.

CTO-Mark-Anthony says:
# *CSO*: Yes I did just about room temperature. In which they became active.

CTO-Mark-Anthony says:
# *EO*: I'm not sure.

CIV_Neoma_Jazz says:
*CO/CMO*:  I'm detecting a very small concentration for an unknown airborne virus, but according to scans against the medical data base, it shouldn’t hard carbon base , sentient life. However, it might effect pet.   canine, Feline etc....

OPS_Sorvik says:
CO:  Sir checking with the FCO now.  FCO: what is the distance to the Kelly?

CMO_Endo says:
*CSO*: What type of microbe would you be holding?

CIV_Neoma_Jazz says:
*Both*:  But this is a virus meaning it will and could mutate.

CSO_Rillian says:
#*CTO*: Mr. Anthony use the labs and try to cook them.......try raising the temp to 50% C and see what happens?

FCO-T’Shara says:
OPS:  Right now we are about 10km from the Kelly.

EO_Hayward says:
#CSO:  Could we possibly flood the lab with anti-matter waste? That would probably kill just about any living organism. We'd have to make a rather hasty departure.

CMO_Endo says:
*CSO*: In those spores I mean

CEO_Lt_Tyfair says:
@ ::Lands the sphinx and gets out::  Self: Now what do I need to do...

OPS_Sorvik says:
CO:  We are 10km from the Kelly.

MO-Hunter says:
#CSO: Ma'am we could put one of the Spores into a small test field and irradiate it that way?

CSO_Rillian says:
#EO: But the virus may be on the Claymore.  that won't work there.

CO_Torbin says:
*CIV/CMO* Shouldn't harm and 100% won't harm are not even close to the same thing..  I don't want should not hurt..  I want definite will not hurt and I want a solution.

CSO_Rillian says:
#MO: Be my guest to try, Mr. Hunter.

MO-Hunter says:

*CO*: I mean, did you check it with someone?

EO_Hayward says:
#CSO: We need to know exactly what we're dealing with to attempt this. I need to be sure.

CSO_Rillian says:
#EO: I need to know NOW.

CO_Torbin says:
*CMO* Mr. Hayward has suggested something similar, so we're proceeding with the intention of it working

EO_Hayward says:
#CSO: With a little luck we'll know in a second

CMO_Endo says:
*CO*: Very well sir

CIV_Neoma_Jazz says:
::Inpatient with all the paper shuffling::

FCO-T’Shara says:
::Continues watching sensors and the light show.::

CMO_Endo says:
CIV: I hope this works...

CTO-Mark-Anthony says:
# *CSO*: The microbes and spores have become active now.

CSO_Rillian says:
#*CO*: I'm sending the information on the organism, Sir.  Program the biofilters to this information and then use that in the transporters too.

CIV_Neoma_Jazz says:
::From scans starts lowering the  temperature to near freezing in the quarantine lab::

CMO_Endo says:
CIV: I don't want to end up scattered across the galaxy or looking like some stuffed trophy

CSO_Rillian says:
#::Transmits the information to the CO::

EO_Hayward says:
#CSO:  I have the required information to set up the filters Ma'am

CTO-Mark-Anthony says:
# *CSO*: Turning up the temperature farther.

CMO_Endo says:
::Teeth begin chattering:: CIV: What are you doing?!

CO_Torbin says:
::Gets the information and routes to OPS:  OPS: Make the biofilters to those specifications, and make it snappy

CIV_Neoma_Jazz says:
CMO:  I know but  hopefully lowering the temperature will slow the growth.

CSO_Rillian says:
#*CTO*: Never mind.......problem taken care of......it's all up to the Claymore now.

OPS_Sorvik says:
CO:  Aye sir.  ::Sets the biofilters to the specified requirements.::

CTO-Mark-Anthony says:
# ::Begins to turn up the temperature to see if they can be killed by heat::

CMO_Endo says:
CIV: I'm in a bio-suit, I'm fine, and the child and nurse don't appear at all effected

CIV_Neoma_Jazz says:
CMO:  then you won’t mind the precautions

EO_Hayward says:
#::Implements the program to activate transporter biofilters *OPS*: I'm Feeding you the specs on how to kill this thing in transit.
