CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Climbing carefully down the ladder from the second level holding the crate firmly against her shoulder.  Grunts from the stress of the EVA suit on her movements::
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
::standing next to his chair:: CTO:  What’s going on over there?
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
::Exits Sickbay with PADD in hand...his stomach cramps have subsided....walks to the the TL and heads to the bridge::
SO_Love says:
@ :: Looking around the large room curiously::  CEO:  Is that color normal?
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Steps down onto the deck then adjusts the crate on her shoulder before making her way over to the SO:: SO: What's our status, Lieutenant?
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Places the crate onto one of the deactivated consoles and looks at the SO::
SO_Love says:
@ CIV: Ummm... your treasure?
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Grins:: SO: Yes and such a treasure it is!  What's our status?  ::Looks down at one of the active consoles::
SO_Love says:
@ ::Looks curiously at the crate::  CIV:  The CEO has the stations power online.  I am about to find a console to see what data we can download and the captain has already checked in with us.
CTO_Lt_Blade says:
CO: Nothing so far, Sir.
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Nods:: SO: Do I have time to check out that other door?  ::Points up to the opposite side of the room on the second level::
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
::Riding up toward the Bridge...notices a few messages on his PADD and begins to check them....nothing important only a few odd reports...as he looks up the lift stops at the bridge and he exits::
SO_Love says:
@ CIV:  I don't see why not.  Perhaps you might find some answers there... this all seems so... odd.
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
CTO:  We have lost communication with them.  Something is going on.  XO:  Take OPS...try to contact the away team again.
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@SO: Very well...keep an eye on my treasure will ya?  Be right back.  ::Turns and heads back to the ladder and begins climbing back up::
SO_Love says:
@ :: Moves to one of the consoles and with the decoded language on her screen, tries to get inside for some data.::  CIV:  I don't think they will be going far. ::Smiles::
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
CO: Aye sir.  ::Sits down at OPS and punches the COMM::  COMM: CLAYMORE: AT: Away team?  Do you read?
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Steps onto the second level deck and walks to the opposite end of the room towards another door::
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Thinks: Maybe more fine collectables...nice treasures!  Is hopeful.  Steps in front of the door and taps the door control pad::

ACTION: There is no response from the away team.

SO_Love says:
@ ::Pulls up some files which she downloads into her data PADD for translating.::
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Pulls the phaser from her holster and waits to see if the door opens::
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
::gets no response...and tries again::  COMM: AT: Away team...this is Commander Taylor do you read?   
SO_Love says:
@ *CO*: I have located some files which I am downloading now.  And I have discovered a map of the station, and maybe internal sensors.
SO_Love says:
@:: Puts the map up on a screen and scans it.::

ACTION: The door in front of the CIV opens slowly to reveal another storage room. It contains various items including dead power cells, chemicals, and food supplies.

CO_Capt_Randolph says:
CTO:  Has the station set up any defenses or anything of that nature?
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Slowly steps through the open doorway, moving cautiously::
CTO_Lt_Blade says:
CO: One moment please.
SO_Love says:
@ ::Frowns as the captain does not reply.::  *CO*:  Captain?  You there?
CTO_Lt_Blade says:
::scans the station::
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
::gives the Away team another try::
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Walks over to one of the shelves and picks up a container.  Examines it carefully, noting strange symbols on the outside that she can't read::
SO_Love says:
@ *CIV*:  We may have a problem here.  I cannot contact the ship.
CTO_Lt_Blade says:
CO: Sir, they have put up a dampening field  cannot scan through it.
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Places the container back on the shelf and looks at the rest of the stuff on the shelf.  All items seem to be in the same type of containers with the same kind of symbols on the outside:: *SO*: Maybe it has something to do with the station's shielding or the power generator you activated?
SO_Love says:
@ CIV:  Why ever would that have interfered?  But given this is an experimental station, I guess it is possible, if not very logical.
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Quickly looks at the other items on the shelves then heads back out through the doorway to the second level landing::
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
CO: Sir...I'm not getting anything.  No word at all.
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
@:: working on a formula on her tricorder::
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@:: Walks as quick as she can to the ladder, which isn't very quick due to the EVA suit::
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
CTO/XO:  Suggestions on how to get through that dampening field?
SO_Love says:
@::Turns to look at the engineer.::  CEO:  Ma'am, the reactor could be interfering with communication.  Could you please disconnect it for now.
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Shouts over the railing:: SO: Try shutting down the power generator.
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
@Self:  Blasted EVA suit is making it hard to work.
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Grips the ladder railing and begins her descent::
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
@SO: Sure give me a sec........... There power is off.
SO_Love says:
@ CIV:  Working on it.
CTO_Lt_Blade says:
CO: I could rig a photon torpedo with a phase discriminator that should be able to break through the field.
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
CO: We could try and counter the fields harmonics....or something to dampen it.
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Drops to the deck with a slight "thud" then makes her way over to the SO and CEO::
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Looks over at the power generator::
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
CTO:  Rig that torpedo.  XO:  Go ahead and try to set up your suggestion.  We will try yours first.

ACTION: The power core continues to function.

CTO_Lt_Blade says:
CO: Aye, Sir.
CTO_Lt_Blade says:
::goes to the turbolift::
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@CEO: Are you sure the power is off?
SO_Love says:
@ :: Looks over at the engineer::  CEO:  Looks like not.  A different button or something?
CTO_Lt_Blade says:
Computer: Photon torpedo bay 2.
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
CO: Aye sir.   ::begins to plug numbers into the console...and looks at the scans of the field...hoping to have some readings that will help::
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Reaches for her good ole' tactical bag and lifts the flap.  Pulls out the old Breen weapons she placed in there earlier then digs around in the bag::
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
@SO: I shut down the power but the core is still active and I don't know why.  Has to be another way to shut down the core itself.
CTO_Lt_Blade says:
::gets out of the turbolift and goes to the torpedo stockpile::
SO_Love says:
@ CEO:  If you could please find it...  they are probably worried up there.
SO_Love says:
@ CIV:  Worse comes to worse we could probably exit the station itself.
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@CEO: Maybe there is an auxiliary power source somewhere on the station that was activated when you activated this one.
CTO_Lt_Blade says:
::pulls a torpedo out of a stasis sleeve::
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@SO: Not without deactivating this thing we won't.  ::Continues rummaging through her bag::
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
::begins matching a few of the harmonic scans and loading them into the computer::
CTO_Lt_Blade says:
Self: Hmm :: knocks on the casing:: good.
CTO_Lt_Blade says:
::walks over to an industrial replicator::
SO_Love says:
@ ::Turns back to her console and sighs.::  CEO/CIV:  Darn... it did shut down the consoles.  Since we are stuck with it at the moment, can you please reactivate the rest of the area before you see what you can find?
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
XO:  Are you ready to initiate your plan?
CTO_Lt_Blade says:
Replicator: Phase Discriminator.
SO_Love says:
@ CIV:  Why not?  That is supposed to be the 'joy' of EVA suits.  There is bound to be an airlock we can activate and leave... yes?
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
CO: Aye...My counter harmonics are complete...now I only hope it works.

ACTION: After a couple seconds, a phase discriminator appears in front of the CTO.

CTO_Lt_Blade says:
Self: Interesting.
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
XO:  Proceed then.  
CTO_Lt_Blade says:
::picks it p and walks back over to the torpedo::

ACTION: Long range sensors detect a ship closing on Claymore's position.

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@SO: Why not?  Because, we don't even know exactly what this thing does.  What if it's some kind of weapon?  We can't leave it like this.  We have to deactivate it.  Shoot!  Where is it?  ::Grabs stuff out of her bag and places it on a console::
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
::begins to prepare the counter harmonic pulse....and fires at the field::
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
@SO: Of course, ::walks over and flips the switch::
CTO_Lt_Blade says:
::pulls off a section of the casing and begins integrating the phase discriminator into the inner workings of the torpedo::
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@Self: Ahh...yes...here it is!  ::Pulls out a small oblong tube and taps a few buttons on it::
SO_Love says:
@ ::Looks a bit worried::  CIV:  I had not thought about that... but why would they leave such a weapon lying around so to speak. ::Looks curiously at the bag.::
CTO_Lt_Blade says:
::after a few minutes finishes with his work::
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Looks at the oblong tube as the lights flicker on and off:: SO: Who knows?  They were Breen remember?  Ahh...good...
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
CO: Firing, sir.  ::fires the pulse::

ACTION: As the XO fires the harmonic pulse, the installation begins to shake slightly and the field becomes visible from the planet's surface.

CTO_Lt_Blade says:
*CO*: Sir I have completed my work on the torpedo.
SO_Love says:
@ CIV:  Good what?
SO_Love says:
@CEO:  Thanks...
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
@SO:  I think they have found us????  Did you feel the shake?
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@Self: Whoa!  ::Stumbles forward and backward::
SO_Love says:
@ :: Activates the stations sensors.::
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*CTO*:  Standby...::hears the sensors beep and walks over to Tactical::  looks like we have company.
SO_Love says:
@ CEO: Looks like they have discovered they can't get through.  Hopefully they will know a way.
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
CO: Looks like it just hit it...nothing else.
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@SO: I'm not willing to take any chances.  I'm going to place some charges around the room and around the power generator...just in case we need to blow this place.
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Walks off to place the charges::
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
XO:  But it looked like it was coming from the surface.
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*CTO*/XO:  We have a Breen Warship coming in.  Red Alert.  
SO_Love says:
@ CIV:  A bit drastic don't you think?  Considering how long the base has been abandoned and it was a research station... at least that is what is indicated.  I have my tricorder working on deciphering some of the files I found.

ACTION: The power core glows brighter and the dampening field grows stronger.

CTO_Lt_Blade says:
::loads the torpedo just in case::*CO*: On my way!
SO_Love says:
@CEO/CIV:  Odd... most odd.  There are actually small critters living on this station.  And I am picking up pockets of air.  Even stranger.
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Struggles to place the charges around the power generator due to the confines of the EVA suit::
CTO_Lt_Blade says:
::runs to the turbolift:: Computer: Bridge emergency speed!
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
::takes a better seat at his station and readies a conflict::
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*CTO* Is your torpedo ready to fire.  I want to try and get the Away Team back to the Claymore.
SO_Love says:
@ ::Notes the lighting is changing and turns around to look at the reactor.::  CEO:  Ma'am?
CTO_Lt_Blade says:
*CO*:Aye Sir.
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@SO: I thought you said there wasn't any life signs detected?:: Places another charge on the power generator::
CTO_Lt_Blade says:
::gets off the turbolift and gets to his station::
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
@SO: The power is going up and I can't shut down the core this is crazy.

ACTION: The Breen ship fires on Claymore.

CO_Capt_Randolph says:
::Moves for the CTO::  CTO:  Fire that torpedo.
CTO_Lt_Blade says:
::Hangs on:: CO:  Aye, Sir.
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
::holds on as the ship is hit::
CTO_Lt_Blade says:
::fires the torpedo::
SO_Love says:
@CIV:  There were none from the ship.  But the stations sensors are reading otherwise.  Which makes one wonder what else may have been missed.

ACTION: Claymore shudders under the impact, but there is little damage.

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@SO: I've completed placing the charges around the power generator.  I'm heading up to the second level.  I found some chemicals in one of the rooms.  I'm going to place a couple of charges in there too for good measure.  ::Heads for the ladder and begins to climb::
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
@SO/CIV: My gut instinct tells me we are in a heap of trouble.
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
XO:  Open a channel to that Breen ship.
SO_Love says:
@CEO:  What would happen if the Commander Ryan sets off the charges?

ACTION: Claymore's torpedo impacts the moon's surface.  The installation shakes violently and the dampening field goes down.

CO_Capt_Randolph says:
COM: Breen ship:  This is Captain Randolph of the Federation Starship Claymore.   We are trying to retrieve our Away Team.  Please respond.
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
@SO: I am assuming of course.........Yieeeeeeeeeeee ::stumbles but maintains her balance::
SO_Love says:
@ ::Reaches out instinctively::  All:  What was that?
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
::holds the COM open::
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@ACK! ::Is thrown from the ladder, hanging on with one hand::
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
CTO:  Shields down.  XO:  Beam the Away Team to the Claymore.  Now!
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
@SO That was a torpedo blast.
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Regains her grip on the ladder then climbs up as fast as she can::
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
::locks onto the Away Team::  Energize.
SO_Love says:
@ CEO:  A bit extreme to get to us.  ::Finishes another download.::
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
@SO/CIV: we must stay together. I think we are going home
CTO_Lt_Blade says:
CO:Aye!
CTO_Lt_Blade says:
::lowers shields::
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
::moves down to the helm station and takes it::  XO:  When you have them aboard...let me know.  This is gonna take some flying maybe...

ACTION: The Breen take advantage of Claymore's shields beaming down and fire a strong volley.  The away team is beamed up and as they dematerialize, they notice Breen soldiers beaming in.

XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
CO: Aye sir...I'll meet them down in the transporter room.
SO_Love says:
@ ::Feeling the familiar tingle...::
CTO_Lt_Blade says:
CO: Intruder, alert!
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
@::Dematerializes just as she steps onto the landing:: HEY!!
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
CTO:  Raise shields.  ::takes the ship out of range of the weapons::
CTO_Lt_Blade says:
::raises shields::
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
::enters the TL and rides down to the Transporter Room::
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
CTO:  Get your security team on it.  Get the marines out there too.  
SO_Love says:
CEO/CIV:  Talk about timing...
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Rematerializes on the transporter pad and glares at the transporter chief:: Chief: What the heck?  I wasn't done!
SO_Love says:
*CO*:  Sir... Breen beamed onto the station as we were leaving.
CTO_Lt_Blade says:
*Security Teams*: Security teams to Phaser Bays 1 and 4 and Engineering!
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*SO*  Understood.  ::moving the ship away from the Breen Warship::

ACTION: Claymore zips away from the moon and the Breen, and the Breen warship does not pursue.

XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
::exits the lift...and sees the away team rematerializing::  ALL: Everyone here?
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
*CO*: LtCmdr. Ryan to the Bridge.  ::Rips off her helmet::
CTO_Lt_Blade says:
*Marines*:Assist the security teams in Phaser Bays 1 and 4 and Engineering.
SO_Love says:
:: Notes that Ryan does not have her treasures... does not want to be the one to remind her.::
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
::Gets up and lets a helmsman take over:: *CIV*  Randolph here.
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
*CO*: What is the status of the ship?????
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*CEO*  We may have taken some damage.  Get down to engineering.  I am going to need a report on it.
CTO_Lt_Blade says:
*Sec Teams/Marines*:Phasers on high stun.
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
::pulling off the rest of the EVA suit and heads for engineering::
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
*CO*: Sir, what is going on?  I wasn't done down there.  I was in the middle of placing charges and I left something behind!  ::Barely able to keep a civil tongue::
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
*CO*: Already on my way to engineering.
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
::rides back up to the bridge::
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*CIV*  We were dealing with a Breen Warship firing at us and they were beaming over to the station as you beamed back.
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
Computer: Status on Shoshonie?
SO_Love says:
:: Peels the eva suit off with help from the transporter chief.::  TC:  Thank you.
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
<Computer> CEO: Shoshonie is in quarters safe.

ACTION: Claymore receives a hail from the Breen ship.

CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
*CO*: Breen warship?  Well, if you want I can blow the whole installation.  ::Grips the oblong tube with the blinky lights::
CTO_Lt_Blade says:
CO: Sir, phasers are offline and several shield generators are gone, suggest we jump to warp.
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
::enters the TL:: Engineering Express!!
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*CIV*  The SO can confirm that for you.
SO_Love says:
:: Finished, heads for the bridge.::
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
*Engineering*: Heat up the fusion reactors to full and feed them in where needed.  I am on my way.
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
::nods to the CTO::  Helm:  Set course for Tucker's Planet.  Engage best possible speed.
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
::leaves the TL and charges into engineering barking orders::
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Thinks: The SO can confirm that for me? Mumbles: What kind of a deal is this?  ::Unzips her EVA suit and climbs out of it leaving it lay on the floor in front of the locker:: *CO*: Sir, I have the detonator.
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
::enters the bridge and takes his seat::
SO_Love says:
:: Makes her way to the bridge.::
Ens Thoms says:
CO:  Aye sir.
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*CIV*  Detonator Commander?
SO_Love says:
:: As the turbolift stops, she steps onto the bridge.::
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
::hits the COM from the Breen ship::  COM: This is Commander Taylor of the USS Claymore.
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Whips her head back and slaps her forehead with her palm, takes a deep breath:: *CO*: I have placed charges....EXPLOSIVE charges around the station.  I can blow it if you want....right now...
SO_Love says:
::Hearing::  CO:  She did.
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*CIV*  That may not be needed.
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
ALL: I want the shied generators jury – rigged and up in less than 5 minutes. I want all the power from the essential sections of the ship tied to the shields so when the come online I want teams on the engines.  I need this now and not yesterday. Let’s hustle people.
SO_Love says:
:: Activates her sensors and scans the area.::
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
::walks over to the XO::  XO:  What’s going on?
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
*CO*: Acknowledged.  I'm headed for my lab.  Let me know if you want me to detonate the charges.  ::Heads out of the transporter room for the turbolift::
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
ALL: And I want the phaser banks back online in 5 minutes.
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
CO: I'm unsure sir...we got a hail from the Breen ship...but I'm waiting for a reply.

ACTION: The Breen comm is direct and seems prerecorded.  It simply states that they claim this system as Breen territory and all foreign ships should leave.

CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*CIV*  Understood.  Randolph out.
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
ALL: You did it for the Captain's wife and now you are going to if for me and her memory.
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
::closes eyes and says a small prayer to the Great Spirit for guidance and strength in this crisis::
SO_Love says:
::Listening, mumbles under her breath::  I don't think the Tuckers  will be happy about that.
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Enters the turbolift:: TL: Deck six.  ::Still holding the detonator::
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
CO: Just a prerecording...I guess to good to talk to us face to face.  They claim to own this territory and that we should leave.
SO_Love says:
CO:  Sir, I am picking up over 200 Breen down on the station.  They appear to be working on getting it back up and running, the rest of the system seems fine at the moment.
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
*CO*: Sir you should have shields momentarily and phasers in a few minutes.  I have two teams working on the engines.  All non essential power has been rerouted to shields and phasers back online.
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Exits the turbolift and walks a short distance to her lab.  Taps in her security code then enters when the doors open::
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
::grabs a tool kit and heads for the shield generators to reroute and jury-rig for use::
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
XO:  We need to contact Starfleet and let them know.  Is Tucker's Planet inside Breen space?
SO_Love says:
XO:  There are over 350 Breen on their ship still.
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*CEO*  Understood.
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
::hands flying as if guided by some force that is unseen and slowly the shield generator begins to show life::
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
Self: Now that is one, on to the next.
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
CO: Aye sir...I'll contact Starfleet and check if the planet is in Breen space.
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Pulls her tactical bag off her shoulder and tosses it on her desk.  When the bag hits the desk and object fall out of the bag to the floor.  Walks over and picks up the object and smiles:: Self: One antique Breen weapon!  ::Wants to jump up and down with joy but refrains::
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
SO: Thank you...  CO: Sir still have 350 Breen on their ship.
SO_Love says:
::Pulls up the sectors maps in question.::
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
::begins to send a COMM to Starfleet...hoping that it gets through::
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Holds up the weapon and looks at it:: Self: Thank you!
SO_Love says:
XO:  Tuckers is close to Breen space, but their borders do not extend to it.
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
XO:  Understood.  We need to make sure not to provoke them for right now.
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
::works on the other one and it too starts to fire up::
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
CO: Sir...the SO has informed me that the Planet is close, but their borders do not extend to it.  
SO_Love says:
XO:  There is more history here.
CIV_LtCmdr_Ryan says:
::Sits down at her desk and activates the desk lamp.  Grabs a small brush and begins carefully brushing the dust and dirt from the weapon::
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
*CO*: I got the shields to come back on but they will only get to 75%.  They are badly fried but will hold for now.
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
XO/SO:  You know what that means then.  It might not now but if they reacquire the area, they might try to take it.  Hopefully the Federation Council can set up a treaty with them.
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
*CEO*  Good work.  Keep it up.
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
*Ens. Stowe*: I want an update on the phasers.
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
*CO*: Thanks Deer out.
SO_Love says:
CO:  Sir... given the wealth of this system... it is not likely they will easily give up.  And this is not a federation planet.
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
SO:  That is true.  That is why it is imperative that we have Tucker's Planet enter the Federation so we can protect them.

ACTION: Claymore is within visual range of Tucker's Planet.

CO_Capt_Randolph says:
XO:  We are on our way to Tucker's Planet again.  Let’s make this as easy as possible.
SO_Love says:
CO:  Then we had best hope they are ready.  If we say otherwise and they are not...
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
CO: I agree sir...smooth sailing is a must.
Ens.Stowe says:
*CEO*: Sir the phasers are almost finished.  They are a mess you know but ..........hold on..........you should be seeing some power already beginning to build in the phaser banks.
SO_Love says:
::Glances at sensors.::  XO:  We are in visual range now.
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
SO: Aye.
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
XO/SO:  We also need to keep an eye on the Breen, find out if they are going to mass against Tucker's Planet.  That is why Starfleet needs to be here.
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
::watches the power grid and sees some of the power begin to build but slowly::
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
XO:  Contact Tucker's Planet.  Let them know we are in visual range.  Helm:  Slow to impulse.  Prepare to take us into an orbit of Tucker's planet.  
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
::Sends another priority message to Starfleet about the events that are unfolding and asks for their assistance::
SO_Love says:
CO:  Why now?  Did we somehow trigger some kind of plan set in motion long ago?  There is no question that the station has been abandoned for awhile.
Ens. Thoms says:
 CO:  Aye sir.
XO_Cmdr_Taylor_III says:
COMM: Claymore: Tucker’s Planet:  Hello this is Commander Taylor of the USS Claymore, we are within visual range of the planet.
CEO_Ens_Deer says:
*CO*: Sir the phaser banks are building up power slowly. It may take some time.
CO_Capt_Randolph says:
SO:  Its a political situation.  If they take over Tucker's Planet, they will have taken control of its resources not to mention the lives that would be lost.  It is also important that we keep an eye on the Breen.  Anything can happen with them.
