CEO_LtCmdr_Hayward says:
@::At the cave site, surveying the progress::
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@::at the cave site as well, speaking with a few members of the native population about the specifications of the shields::
Host CO_Capt_Daylan says:
::aboard Claymore on the Bridge::
Host SMDave says:
ACTION: Both planetside and is-system preparations for evacuation and protection of the Chunum are in full swing and so far, things are going well.
SO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
::rotates to her left to look over some particular scan data and then is satisfied that so far her probes are sending in correct responses::
CEO_LtCmdr_Hayward says:
@EO: How are things coming along?
Councillor_Rava says:
@ ::picking his way through heavy equipment and stacks of construction supplies, looking for the unfamiliar alien he was told to seek out:: Outloud: I was told to look for a Commander Halfood?
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@::kneels down beside the nearest unit, popping open its access console and demonstrating how to use the controls for basic functions; the three people he's with nod as he quickly through the basics::
CTO_Lt_Kizlev says:
::on the Claymore bridge, synchronizing the ship's tactical scanners with the deployed probe-based sensor net surrounding the Chuna planet::
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@::stands up and moves out of the way so they can take a closer look, then looks back at Hayward::  CEO:  Good, I think.  They seem pretty sharp.  We've only covered basics so far, though.
Host CO_Capt_Daylan says:
::shifts in the command chair and uncrosses and recrosses his legs, resting a padd on his lap as he reads::
CEO_LtCmdr_Hayward says:
@EO: Continue on then, these are good people
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@::nods, not having any reason to disagree::  CEO: Aye, sir.
Councillor_Rava says:
@ ::looking around:: Outloud: Commander... Vayward? ::turning around::
CTO_Lt_Kizlev says:
SO: I wish we had these mobile sensor units available more often. The probes sharpen my targeting sensors with greater efficiency than normal. Good work, lieutenant.
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@::kneels back down, again showing the three Chunum how to active the unit and acces it directly with the console::
CEO_LtCmdr_Hayward says:
@::waves:: Councillor: Over here. I'm Commander Hayward.
SO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
::without turning directly to face either the Captain or Kizlev reports loud enough for them to hear::  CO/CTO: Probes performing as expected.  No unusual data so far.  Subterranean probes are sending in further information about the underground structure and mantle contents...
Councillor_Rava says:
@ ::walks in his rolling way over to the alien, lumbering and light-footed at the same time:: CEO: Ahh... apologies on my mistake. Please forgive.
CEO_LtCmdr_Hayward says:
@Rava: Not a problem, anything I can help you with?
Host CO_Capt_Daylan says:
::glances up from the padd and nods:: SO: Very good, Lieutenant.
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@::immediately demonstrates a cold restart of the unit too, making sure they know when and how to do it::
CTO_Lt_Kizlev says:
CO: Captain, TIC reports deployment of Air and Recon Wing units in place according to prescribed plan. No difficulties to report.
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@<Mr. Avias>  EO: How do we set this up to work automatically, or remotely?
Councillor_Rava says:
@ CEO: I am Councillor Rava. I speak for this enclave. ::looks around the cave a little nervously:: The government asked me to work with you, and to enquire as to your progress.
SO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
::checks in with the department head just under confirming that the extra crew called in to monitor so much information in science is all there.  Looks at the latest batch of correlated reports, the summary showing a few interesting things about the space and atmosphere of the planet::
Host CO_Capt_Daylan says:
::spins his chair a bit to focus on Kizlev:: CTO: Have you gotten a status update on our friends' repairs?
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@::looks at Avias, noting that this particular Chunum seems more technology savvy than the others::  Avias: That's a good quesiton, Mr. Avias.  To do that, we would again access the console here...  ::gestures at the access console and touches the small green button that says 'Remote'::
CEO_LtCmdr_Hayward says:
Rava: We'll the shielding in about 50 percent in place, the essentail supply stations are being setup as we speak. We should be able to relocate those who wish it shortly
CTO_Lt_Kizlev says:
::contacts the Recon Wing for the first scheduled check-in on their end of the sensor net:: CO: No, sir. The Amenti are keeping...um, I believe the saying is...tight-lipped?
Councillor_Rava says:
@ ::nods:: CEO: Ahh... good. ::brings two large clawed paws together in a thumping sound:: Could you show me? My superiors are most insistent. Apologies. Please forgive.
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@ ::points at the display::   Avias:  You'll see here that there's a screen showing only the identification numbers of this particular unit.  Go ahead and turn that unit on... ::points to the generator behind them, and one of the other Chunm scurries over to it::
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@::watches him struggle to get the console open with his han-...well, paws, but finally he's able to get it open and turn the generator on::
Host CO_Capt_Daylan says:
::smiles, clearly not surprised:: CTO: See if you can ask a little more insistently. It's important to know the status of all the military assets in this system.
CEO_LtCmdr_Hayward says:
::signs a padd a yound ensign brought over::
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@ALL:  Good!  Now, if you'll look here Mr. Avias you'll see a second set of identification tags - the systems are automatically able to acces each other.  ::gestures again::
SO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
CTO: That seems normal for the Amenti.  They are...'judicious' with the information they reveal.
Councillor_Rava says:
@ ::blinks inside the black patches on his face::
CTO_Lt_Kizlev says:
CO: Yes, sir. Although it doesn't appear they've made good progress with repairs in the last twelve hours. I will relay our...insistence to them, captain. ::grins as he opens a channel to the Amenti cruisers::
Host CO_Capt_Daylan says:
::turns back around and smiles at the sciene officer:: SO: You said that very... 'judiciously' yourself. Very good.
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@ALL: You'll have to set the device you're working at as the primary one within the network, though - just touch it to do that.  ::touches "ID2191," and it information highlights with the touch::
CEO_LtCmdr_Hayward says:
@Rava: Certainly. Over this way is the master control unit::walks:: From here you'll be able to detect any craft entering your space, and take approprtiat defensive measures. ::pauses::  What concerns me more is the lack of abilty to fight back. As a space farring race, do you have any weapons for planetary defense?
SO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
::smiles and nods at Daylan::  CO:  Thank you, Sir.  ::continues her vigilance of the data::
CTO_Lt_Kizlev says:
::nods at the captain's assessment of Rhianna, knowing it all too well to be her style since their days together on the Geneva::
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@::touches the highlighted area a second time::  ALL: If you touch it again, the computer will show you options for linking all of the available devices together.  There are also options for the strength of the shield, the proportion of protection in areas, and others...
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@<Mr. Avias>  ::rubs paw over the top of his big head::  EO: Ahh...it seems so easy...!
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@::looks at Avias::  Avias:  Really, it is.  The systems are designed that way, especially things like this.  If you're in trouble and need to make changes to the protection grid, you don't want to be messing around with too much..
CTO_Lt_Kizlev says:
::opens a secure channel:: COM: Amenti Ships: This is USS Claymore requesting a status update of your vessels. Please respond... ::gazes ahead as he expects to eat more Amenti-flavored silence::
Councillor_Rava says:
@ ::follows, quietly lumbering:: CEO: We... do not like violence. We find it noisy. We keep order in our society as anyone must but we prefer to stay out of other's affairs and ask them to stay out of ours. ::looks at Woody:: That strategy has not always worked.
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@<Mr. Avias>  EO:  Surely repairing the generators is a much more complex task.
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@::rubs hand through his own hair, maybe because he just saw Avias do it; he doesn't have much hair, as he keeps it extremely short::  Avias: It depends on the nature of the damage or malfunction.
CEO_LtCmdr_Hayward says:
@Raza: Obviously. It was wise of you to ask for help::arrives at the main control, and steps inside:: This is the primary control center, from here you have total access to the system. You can also keep track of your own people, in case they get seperated.
Host CO_Capt_Daylan says:
::looks up again from his padd:: SO: Those subterranean probes. Are they providing us with a good layout of the cave systems the shelters are being built in?
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@::closes out of the networking options back to the main console::  Avias:  You'll see here that there is a diagnostic pane - touch on that and you can run diagnostics of varying levels of intensity.
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@::points at the options, which read "Level 1" at the top and progressing down to "Level 5" at the bottom::  Avias:  Level 1 is the most intensive diagnostic, and requires the device to be deactivated from normal operation.  Level 5 is the most routine, and impacts the overall system the least.
CTO_Lt_Kizlev says:
::sighs:: Self: Time for me to be more judicious... COM: Amenti Ships: I repeat, this is the Claymore requesting a status update of your vessels...your continued silence is not in keeping with the spirit of cooperation in the Federation... ::can clearly see they are receiving, in spite of the prior damage to their comm systems, but after12 hours?::
Councillor_Rava says:
@ ::looks around, taking everything in:: And when you leave... when this conflict is over - and we pray to the ancestors that it ends quickly - will you take all this ::gestures:: back with you?
CEO_LtCmdr_Hayward says:
@Rava: If you so desire it. May I ask why you would want it removed?
SO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
::taps a few keys to bring up a reverse topography outlining a 3d view of the caves::  CO:  Yessir.  Very clean outlines.  It seems the planet is riddled in some areas with the caverns.  They would have afforded ample housing for the Chunum in their past I am sure.
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@<Mr. Avias>  ::frowns and looks somewhat concerned, although it's hard for anyone who isn't Chunum to really tell this::
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@<Mr. Avias>  ::again rubs paw over head::  EO: What if diagnostics don't work?  What if the console doesn't work?
CTO_Lt_Kizlev says:
CO: Still no response to our hails, sir.
Host CO_Capt_Daylan says:
SO: Good. I'd like you to work with the Lieutenant on inward evacuation plans when he has a chance.
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@Avias:  In that case...   ::closes console and goes to the opposite side of the generator::   ....we do this.  ::pops open the rear access panel and slides the tray out::
Councillor_Rava says:
@ ::shakes his head:: CEO: You misunderstand. I was not asking you to remove it. I was just curious if it would be. I do not know if my government will formally request that this facility remain or not. They may. I was... ::tries to find the word:: ...fishing for future reference.
SO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
CO: The cave systems will provide safe haven for now.  Data shows them to be sturdy with deep areas in parts.   A little bit unusual, there is a healthy set of flora and fauna in the caves despite the lack of light.
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@<Mr. Avias>  EO:  What is this...?!
CEO_LtCmdr_Hayward says:
@Rava: We can take it all away when the war is over, or not. It's up to you
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@Avias:  The guts.  The power system is to the left here, and the generator matrix to the right.  Isolinear acces is on the tray here...  ::points to the tray right in front of him::
Host CO_Capt_Daylan says:
::frowns:: SO: Anything they should be worried about?
SO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
::wonders if some of that flora and fauna could be sustenance in an emergency::  CO: No sir, not so far.  I found it interesting and it could be a fortunate thing if any of it were edible.
Councillor_Rava says:
@ ::nods, slow and pondorously:; CEO: I see. Very good. I will inform my government of that as well.
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@Avias:  To manually reset the generator, swap isolinear lines 1, 3, 5, and 9 with 4, 6, 8, and 10.
CTO_Lt_Kizlev says:
::listens to the building, yet subtle giddiness in Rhianna's voice in regards to her reports...thinks he may be the only one to notice her enthusiasm::
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@Avias:  The rest is mere engineering - I'm sure you can figure out how the power supply works.
Host CO_Capt_Daylan says:
::looks over his shoulder at the tactical station:: CTO: Are you busy?
CEO_LtCmdr_Hayward says:
@::nods:: Rava: Is there anything else?
SO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
CTO:  The Chunum, do you know at what stage their evacuation has progressed?  ::glances at the deeper space probe reports::  And there are no unusual vessels showing so far.
Councillor_Rava says:
@ CEO: Hmm? Oh, yes yes. ::produces a heavy data device from somewhere in the folds of the sparse clothing his people wear:: I have a few requests...
CTO_Lt_Kizlev says:
CO: Only with routine scans and department reports, sir. The Amenti technical problems still seem to persist. I would gladly send over an away team to assist if I knew they were willing to accept help.
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@::looks to see if he can easily pull the generator matrix out to show them::
Host CO_Capt_Daylan says:
CTO: We can work on unified military fleet integration at some later date. Red Alert, intruder on Deck 8. ::taps a control on his chair arm that starts a clock running on the main viewscreen:: Go.
Host SMDave says:
ACTION: The Amenti hail Claymore on a weak frequency.
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@::observes a removable panel right above the tray and pops that open, then sees tracks to pull the matrix up and over the tray for easier access::
CEO_LtCmdr_Hayward says:
@Rava: Go ahead.
SO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
::thinks the Amenti seem somewhat like the Breen in their stubbornness to keep their privacy even in the face of injuries and damage::
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@<Mr. Avias>  ::pays attention intently; of his compariots, he is probably most aware that the information they can draw here may save a life or two down the road once Starfleet is gone::
CTO_Lt_Kizlev says:
SO: The Sojourner's transporters are already working double-time... ::hears the captain, raising an eyebrow at the sudden and awkward drill, then hears the console chirp:: CO: Captain, that may have to wait. The Amenti are responding to us...the signal is weak. ::turns to Rhianna:: SO: Can you boost the transmission?
Councillor_Rava says:
@ ::shows the device to Hayward in a language he plainly doesn't understand and then snatches it back to read:: One of the gang leaders in Section 6 said its a bit damp and uncomfortable. I have a report from Secion 2 that there isn't enough space. And Section 9 asks when their section will be done?
Host CO_Capt_Daylan says:
CTO: Let her deal with that, Lieutenant. You have an intruder on Deck 8.
SO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
::looks over at Kizlev as the intruder alert is sounded::  CTO: I will do my best.  ::readjusts some of the programming on three of the probes to triangulate and try and boost/clean the transmission::
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@::awkward though it was, he's able to pull the matrix out for access::  Avias:  This is the most complex piece.  It will produce the energy field that provides protection; the emitter will help project this energy outward.
Host SMDave says:
ACTION: The signal gets marginally better but the trouble is at the source.
Host SMDave says:
ACTION: Simulated explosions are reported on deck 8
SO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
::slaves communications to Science Two and rolls her chair over to work on the communication::
CTO_Lt_Kizlev says:
::mumbles, wondering if the captain is just trying to humor himself with tactical minutae:: Self: Indeed... *Security*: Intruder alert on Deck 8. Report to sections 4 through 9 and seal off all turbolifts and personnel junctures to those areas.
SO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
::shakes her head:: CO:  Sir, that is the best we can do.  The problem seems to be originating with the Amenti vessel.
CEO_LtCmdr_Hayward says:
@Rava: We're working on section 9 right now, as to the others, we can relocate some from section 2 as soon as section 9 is up, as for the dampness in section 6, I'l have to look into it.
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@Avias:  We have specs on this and various schematics that I've downloaded, but it's not something I can explain in five minutes.  If this is damaged, the generator is probably beyond repair.
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@<Mr. Avias>  ::shrugs, but agrees; he's looked over the schematics and has a decent understanding::
Host CO_Capt_Daylan says:
COM Amenti: This is Captain Daylan of the Claymore. Come in, Amenti vessels?
SO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
::takes a second to look at the Captain, wondering at his odd timing of a simulation and is a little worried about it.  Is frustrated that no video is coming in::
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@Avias:  Have a look inside and let me know if you have any questions.  ::stands up again and takes position behind the Chunum, waiting to see if they need any help::
Councillor_Rava says:
@ ::opens his shaggy mouth, showing blunted incisors from eating foliage and reaches down to pick up a tool, obviously not shaped for his paw:: CEO: May I help? Our elections are coming up
Host SMDave says:
COM:  Claymore: This is Nuccat Das of the Amenti vessel...::static::...
CTO_Lt_Kizlev says:
::gets the reports that the turbolifts have been overridden somehow, indicating the drill to possibly be some kind of mutiny scenario:: *Computer*: Limit all turbolift control to transit only to Deck 7, authorization Kizlev 3-2 Tango-Charlie. *Security*: Cover all turbolift entrances to Deck 9 and apprehend with extreme prejudice.
Host SMDave says:
<Computer>CTO: Unable to comply. Security access codes have been changed.
CEO_LtCmdr_Hayward says:
::surpised:: Rava: Well...sure...want me to show you how to use that?
Host CO_Capt_Daylan says:
::keeping one ear on the developing security situation but focusing most of his attention on trying to decipher the comm channel:: COM Amenti: Nuccat Das, we were inquiring as to your status. You appear to be having communications difficulty.
Councillor_Rava says:
@ ::looks at the tool:: CEO: Perhaps it would be best. I am eager to help my people but not experienced in this field. Apologies. Please forgive.
Host SMDave says:
COM:Claymore: Our communications were damaged in battle...:::static:::...  ave repaired them.  We apologize for not being able to be of further assistance.
SO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
::is starting to feel unsettled without the head of tactical keeping watch in case any Synod vessels make an appearance given the ferocity of their weaponry despite the defensive measures they have set up.  Shifts in her seat as she keeps trying to boost the bad signal or at least clear it some::
CEO_LtCmdr_Hayward says:
@Rava: Here :: takes the tool:: You use it like this. ::demonstrates::
CTO_Lt_Kizlev says:
Self: Impossible...Kobayashi Maru nonsense... Computer: Authenticate access code changes with command-level access. Override changes with my codes, unless changes were made by the captain himself. ::which they obviously were::
Host CO_Capt_Daylan says:
::watches the clock ticking on the screen and then refocuses on trying to clear up the static in his ears:: COM Amenti: Understood, Nuccat Das. How long until you're in combat shape?
Host SMDave says:
<Computer>CTO: Unable to comply.  Computer functions have been rerouted to engineering.
CTO_Lt_Kizlev says:
::watches a report that a science officer was found in the Deck 9 TL, scared half to death by all the phaser rifles pointed at him::
Host SMDave says:
ACTION: Simulated phaser fire and explosions are reported from the engineering deck.
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@<Mr. Avias>  EO:  How do we reset again?
Councillor_Rava says:
@ ::grasps the small tool again:: Ahh... I think I understand. Now, where do I begin with the building of safety and security for this Chunum enclave?
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@::kneels down beside Avias and begins pulling out the isolinear chips and swapping them as he described::  Avias:  Once you've swapped the last chip in the sequence, the device should automatically reset - the console on the other side should let you know.
CTO_Lt_Kizlev says:
*Security*: Divert teams to main engineering with caution. Site-to-site transporters near threat positions.
Host SMDave says:
<Nuccat Das> COM:Claymore: We estimate approximately 3 hours to minimal combat readiness.
EO_Lt_Davis says:
@Avias:  Try it.  ::replaces the isolinear chips to their original sequence::
Host CO_Capt_Daylan says:
COM Amenti: Acknowledged. Please let us know if we can be of any assistance. ::knows full-well they don't have enough engineering crew aboard right now to be of much help - not to mention with unfamiliar technology::
Host SMDave says:
ACTION: The Amenti cut their transmission.
Host CO_Capt_Daylan says:
::looks up from the communication, a little disturbed that the Amenti are sitting dead in space still and focuses on something else:: SO: Are the skies still clear?
CTO_Lt_Kizlev says:
::looks to see the fighting in engineering has suddenly ceased:: *Security*: Report status!
Host CO_Capt_Daylan says:
::glances over at the Tactical console, but then refocuses his attention on Rhianna::
SO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
CO:  Transmission cut, Sir...by the Amenti.  They are being...'judicious' again.
CTO_Lt_Kizlev says:
<Security> *CTO*: Drill concluded, chief. The computer assigned the 'target' to be one of the nurses tending to a banged up crewman down here. She's...passed out after we stormed the place. We're taking her to sickbay. Security out.
SO_LtJG_Jakiel says:
CO: So far, Sir.  But if they should come out of nowhere...  ::looks pointedly at their absent Chief of Tactical::
CTO_Lt_Kizlev says:
::looks at the combat report:: CO: Captain, it seems 'shots' were fired just before the drill ended. The 'threats' managed to kill 4 crewmen and they caused 'damage' to the warp core itself...
Host CO_Capt_Daylan says:
SO: Well lets hope they're not giong to do that. ::stands:: CTO: Lieutenant, stand down from red alert. I want a report on that drill on my desk in an hour.
Host SMDave says:
