Patrolling the Frontier - Mission 66 - 1102.15
Host SMDrew says:
Summary:  The away team moves through the Claymore from the past, sifting through the thin layer of dust that covers most of the interior.  Aboard the current Claymore, the crew check on wounded and continue minor repairs as they follow along side the past Claymore.

XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::nods, letting that information sift through his background thought for the moment::
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@XO:  Commander, were you stationed aboard the Claymore when she was lost to...a rift, was it?
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
::Standing near the biobed looking over the last scans Brooks had taken before Senn disappeared.::  MO: Doctor, can you get anything further on the anomaly?

CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@::Looks away a moment, contemplating the ease with which they seem to handle being sucked into rifts and so forth, then looks back::  XO:  What was your billet and rank at the time?
Host SMDrew says:
ACTION:  Sensor alarms go off on the tactical station.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::tries to recall, but the missions seem to run together, with only the Sanctum War standing out to him for some reason::
MO_Lt_Brooks says:
::Looks through her tricorder intently:: CO: I--I'm not sure, Captain. I'm a doctor, not a physicist.  Perhaps someone from Senn's department would be more successful interpreting these readings.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<MOPS_LtJG_Gulash>  ::perks immediately, looking around and anticipating a report from somewhere::
Host SMDrew says:
@ACTION:  Automated alarms begins to chime on the bridge in an eerie low power whine.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@<CMC_MCPO_Matthews> ::gestures to the console::  XO: I think I know where he's going. If this is a Claymore of the past, perhaps it is configured for the past.
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
@::Jumps at the alarms and then starts really using the tricorder.::
TO_Ens_Kytides says:
@::Stands behind Damrok, listening to them talk and waiting for a course of action to be decided::

XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@<CMC_MCPO_Matthews>  ::approaches as well::
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
<aTO_Ens_Mornal>  MOPS:  Sir, six fighters have decloaked and are on an intercept course.
FCO_Ens_Carter says:
::eyes widen:: 
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@<Computer> XO: Access denied. Improper authentication procedures.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<MOPS_LtJG_Gulash> TO: Shields! Ready weapons!
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
::Raises an eyebrow::  MO: Pulled through it?  But how?  And how were we not affected?  And just her?  Why would she be the one singled out?  ::pacing around a bit as she speaks her thoughts aloud.  Sensing that they might not find the answers.::
OPS_Ens_Kendal says:
::flexes his fingers and starts typing in commands, altering the power settings for a combat setting.::
Host SMDrew says:
@ACTION / ACTION:  Ion blasts rake across the hulls of both Claymores, sending shockwaves through both ships.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<MOPS_LtJG_Gulash>  *CO*: Captain T'Shara to the Bridge!
FCO_Ens_Carter says:
MOPS: Evasive maneuvers, Sir? Or should I continue matching speed and course with the other Claymore?
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
<aTO_Ens_Mornal>  MOPS:  Ayesir!  ::Raises shields and charges phasers, then glances to Logan::  Logan:  You have torpedo control!

XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::Frowns at the computer's curt response, then is thrown to the right by the damage::   ALL: What the hell?
OPS_Ens_Kendal says:
<TO_Ens_Logan> aTO: Understood, targeting.
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
::Looks up in reaction to the comm, nods to the doctor as she heads for the doors::  MO: I am sorry, Doctor. It appears my presence is requested elsewhere. I will get back to you on this.  ::Hears red alert signals go off  as she leaves sickbay.::

@::Rocks with the blasts, a bit unsteady on his feet...takes out his tricorder and tries to get a view of things beyond the bridge::  XO:  Felt like...weapons fire.
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
*MOPS*: On my way Lieutenant.

@ACTION:  Ion blasts blow through the outer saucer hull on decks four through twelve.
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
@::Keeps her footing with difficulty bracing herself against the console.::
MO_Lt_Brooks says:
::Grasps the edges of the biobed as she ship shakes, holding herself steady:: CO: Uh...understood, Captain.
OPS_Ens_Kendal says:
::sends a signal to the flight bay to stand by to launch fighters.::  MOPS: Should we launch the alert fighters?
FCO_Ens_Carter says:
::fingers his earring a bit:: MOPS: Sir?
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<MOPS_LtJG_Gulash>  ::looks to Carter::  FCO: Evasive pattern delta. 
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
<aTO_Ens_Mornal>  MOPS:  Ready to return fire on your mark, Sir.
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
@::This time looses her footing and lands with a nice thud trying quickly to right herself.::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<MOPS_LtJG_Gulash>  TO: Target the nearest one and FIRE!  ::a strange, bloodthirsty look comes over his face::
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
::Exits sickbay as she rocks to the side from the blasts::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@<CMC_MCPO_Matthews>  ::gripping console::  XO: Wait...weren't you a different position when you first came aboard?
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
<aTO_Ens_Mornal>  MOPS:  Aye!  ::Targets the nearest fighter and fires phasers::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::Looks at Matthews confusedly, then checks back to the console, entering his authentication as Engineering Officer::
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
::Hits the corridor wall as she makes her way to the turbolift and steps in::  TL: Bridge
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
@::Feels like there's nothing she can do, being locked out of any console.::
Host SMDrew says:
ACTION:  Three fighters break off and begin another run at the Claymore.  Rapid fire ion blasts phase through the Claymore's shields and punch through the ablative armor.
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@TO:  Ensign, head into the break room and get that weapons locker open.  By force, if necessary.
FCO_Ens_Carter says:
MOPS: Evasive delta, aye. ::enters the command in his console, but also makes the motions like he's in manual control::
OPS_Ens_Kendal says:
<TO_Ens_Logan> ::watches the fighter's flight plan for a moment, makes an educated guess, on which one will next be inside one of the photon's firing arcs, and fires a string of torpedoes::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<MOPS_LtJG_Gulash>  ::checks the console in front of him, watching the fighters and Claymore interact::  FCO: Bank hard to port, z minus ten degrees.
Host SMDrew says:
@<Computer>  Access granted.  Welcome, Lieutenant Davis.
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
::Exits the bridge and walks over to her chair.::  MOPS: Report.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<MOPS_LtJG_Gulash>  TO: Fire whatever we have as we pass underneath the near fighter.
OPS_Ens_Kendal says:
::winces as the ship is shaken then shifts auxiliary power to shields:: Aloud: Auxiliary power shifted to shields.
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
<aTO_Ens_Mornal>  ::Scans the fighters for make an any weaknesses while preparing for another phaser blast::  MOPS:  Ayesir!  Logan:  Fire at will!
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
::Grabs a console as she ships shakes again.::
OPS_Ens_Kendal says:
<TO_Ens_Logan> ::watches the salvo strike out:: Aloud: Torpedoes away.
OPS_Ens_Kendal says:
*MO_Brooks*: Attention, we are under attack. Stand by for injuries.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@Computer: Disable authentication routines for all bridge consoles.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<MOPS_Lt_Gulash>  CO: We've been engaged without warning by at least three fighters. We've taken several hits.
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@::Rushes to tactical and attempts to log in, now that Davis has made the way clear::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<MOPS_LtJG_Gulash>  ::gets up from her seat and heads towards his station::
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
@::Hearing the XO, finally is able to move to the Science console and has something productive to do.::
TO_Ens_Kytides says:
@::Stumbles to the side before steadying himself, looking around the room until Damrok's orders::  CTO:  Aye, Sir.  ::Hurries off to the break room as fast as he can without risking being thrown around by impacts::
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
<aTO_Ens_Mornal>  ::Targets a fighter as it makes a pass over the dorsal side, and fires all topside phasers::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@CTO: Any luck?
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@<CMC_MCPO_Matthews>  ::takes station at the aft engineering console, also trying to access it::
FCO_Ens_Carter says:
::watches the other Claymore on the viewscreen as he continues the maneuver::
Host SMDrew says:
ACTION:  Three fighters fly past the Claymore as she pitches down into them.  Phasers and torpedoes fire out of the Claymore, lighting the surrounding space.  Two fighters take heavy damage and the third evades the attack.
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
::Nods, taking her seat::  MOPS/OPS: Have we tried contacting the fighters?
OPS_Ens_Kendal says:
<TO_Ens_Logan> ::waits for what he considers just the right moment and unleashes a salvo from the rear torpedo tubes::
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
@::Accessing the Science station, tries to figures out what is going on.::
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@::Hesitates a moment as the computer works::  XO:  ...Yes.  Yessir.  I'm in the system.  Trying to get the sensors online.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<MOPS_LtJG_Gulash>  CO: No, sir.
OPS_Ens_Kendal says:
CO: Negative, Ma'am.
FCO_Ens_Carter says:
CO: Somehow I don't think they're in the mood to talk.
Host SMDrew says:
@ACTION:  Fighters pound the past Claymore.  Ion blasts puncture the hull, repeatedly rocking the vessel as it slowly continues forward.
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
@::Holds onto the Science console as the ship rocks again, checks on damage as there's no Ops with them::
Host SMDrew says:
@ACTION:  Science, helm, and sensors come online on the past Claymore.
FCO_Ens_Carter says:
::tries to move between the fighters and the past Claymore::
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
::Nods::  FCO: Aye, it would appear not.  Continue evasive maneuvers.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::swivels around::  SO: Take the helm!
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@XO:  Systems coming back online.  Trying to raise shields.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@SO: As you were.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::moves down towards the station himself, sitting down and accessing the console::
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
@::Starts for the helm and stops::  XO: Yes, sir.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@<CMC_MCPO_Matthews>  ::turns in time to see Davis sit::  Self: Oh, god, here we go...
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
OPS: Shields?
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
@XO: We've got a hull breach on several levels.
OPS_Ens_Kendal says:
CO: Online but ineffective.
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
TO: Status report on the three fighters?
Host SMDrew says:
<Dobian_Pilot> COM: Vessels:  Your vessels will be added to our fleet.  Surrender now.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::adjusts heading to 090 and engages engines at one-quarter impulse::
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
<aTO_Ens_Mornal>  ::Attempts to automatically remodulate the shields, as the fighters seem to be having an easy time damaging the hull...unleashes another phaser blast at the closest fighter::  CO:  Two damaged, one unhurt.  The three others are attacking the other Claymore.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@CMC: Take care of that!  ::gestures towards Rillian, intending to mean what she was saying::
Host SMDrew says:
@ACTION:  With a slight groan the impulse engineers engage at one-quarter impulse.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@SO: What's around us, Ensign?
FCO_Ens_Carter says:
OPS: What's our damage report? And what's theirs? ::indicates the other Claymore::
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
OPS: Try rotating shield frequencies.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@<CMC_MCPO_Matthews>  ::patches in to LCARS again, identifying decks with breaches to confirm and address Rillian's report::
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
@XO:  We've have a hull breach on deck four and lower.  Other than that, we're still functioning.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::watches as Claymore, old, moves past the perimeter of the ongoing battle, then he brings the ship about::
OPS_Ens_Kendal says:
::routs the Dobian's comm message to the bridge speakers:: CO Incoming message
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@XO:  Attempting to charge shields and phasers.  Torpedo launchers might be our best bet if we want to return fire...less energy involved.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::nods::  SO: Matthews will get it. Is there anything outside the ship that we can use to help us, or hide us?
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@CTO: Prepare a full volley.
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
TO: Continue full round on all ships.
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
@XO: Scanning now.
OPS_Ens_Kendal says:
::rotates the Claymore's shield permutation by forty-five degrees::
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
::Nods to Kendal::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::adjusts past Claymore's position z plus twenty, coming back in at one-half impulse this time and heading for two of the fighters, which are making another pass at the other Claymore::
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@XO:  Aye sir.  ::Starts loading all of the torpedo launchers, and rigs for proximity detonation...best way to take out the swift, light craft::
Host SMDrew says:
@ACTION:  The fighters begin another attack run, flying in from the rear and strafing along the dorsal centerline.   Ion blasts tear through the shuttle bay, cargo bay and the Captain's ready room on the bridge.  The doors buckle before shields block the open hull.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::waits patiently, watching one of the ships make another tear in Claymore's exterior::
OPS_Ens_Kendal says:
<TO_Ens_Logan> ::waits for the target to come into line with the torpedo tubes then opens up again with a full salvo.::
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@::Reflexively flinches away from the port side of the ship, as that bolt was clearly audible and within a couple of meters::
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
@::Feeling herself being pulled toward the hull breach.:: XO: Nothing, Sir.  We're in the middle of nothing.
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
<aTO_Ens_Mornal>  ::Fires all dorsal phasers again, targeting the two weakened fighters::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::feels the impact, and tries to adjust the ship to maintain heading; he realizes they may not have enough time to get the perfect shot::  CTO: Fire!
TO_Ens_Kytides says:
@::Tries the button on the weapons locker, glad when it opens easily, and picks up two rifles, moving back to Damrok carefully now due to the continuing attacks::  CTO:  Sir, weapons locker is open.  Brought two rifles.
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@::Unleashes a barrage of photon torpedoes in a spread pattern, hoping to cover as much space with the detonations as possible::
Host SMDrew says:
ACTION:  Two of the three fighters break off and cloak.  The third makes another pass at the current Claymore again, its ion blasts passing through the shields and punching holes into the string of escape pods near sickbay.
FCO_Ens_Carter says:
::murmuring to self as he enters another evasive maneuver::
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@TO:  Good work, Ensign.  Get one of those rifles to the master chief;  you hang onto the other.  Check with Commander Davis for further orders.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::watches as current Claymore passes in the viewer, and he adjusts course to two hundred seventy and brings past Claymore back to the same z level as its more modern counterpart::
MO_Lt_Brooks says:
::As she's going about her work in sickbay, preparing for casualties, she grabs a nearby biobed once more, bracing herself:: ::In a foreboding tone::  van Kampen: That felt....close.
Host SMDrew says:
@ACTION:  The nimble fighters dodge the torpedoes as they fill the open space with plasma countermeasures.  The torpedoes erupt around the fighters, but do no damage.
MO_Lt_Brooks says:
van Kampen: If they don't get things straightened up out there, Doctors Raeyld and Sokov are going to end up scrambling Fong.
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
<RN_WO_van Kampen>  ::Glances around, knowing one of those bolts could just as easily have come through right where they're standing::  MO:  Might not only be him that ends up scrambled, at this rate.
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
@::Tries to adjust sensors in order to find a way to pick up the cloaked ships.::
OPS_Ens_Kendal says:
::swears quietly and takes the time to bring up the recorded stats on countermeasures to ion weapons::
FCO_Ens_Carter says:
::watching the viewscreen closely::
MO_Lt_Brooks says:
::Makes her way to an operations console in sickbay, trying to get a status update on the ship::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::turns::  TO: Ensign, get on that console. Prepare a series of tachyon bursts.
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
@::Runs a comparison with the ships with the ships previously cataloged in the database.::
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
TO: Contact Commander Davis.  Work with Damrok and have both our phasers in line and focused on one target.
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
::watches the viewscreen.::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
<MOPS_LtJG_Gulash>  CO: Captain, why don't we release fighters and fight like for like?
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@XO:  Fighters are deploying some kind of plasma chaff.  Torpedoes are exploding before they reach target.
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
@XO: Sir, I've been working on the sensors.  I'm....detecting a large cloaked vessel about half a light year away.  The fighters are returning to that vessel.
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
<aTO_Ens_Mornal>  ::Attempts to contact the other Claymore, sending a message to the tactical station::
OPS_Ens_Kendal says:
<TO_Ens_Logan> ::seeing what Damrok is doing, he adds the current Claymore's torpedo salvos cover a wide area of space, trying to estimate where the targets will be and flood that area with fire.::
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
MOPS: For now, the fighters stay put.  We need to try a joint effort on phaser fire on one target.
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
@XO: And these ships have never been encountered by the Claymore or other Federation vessels before.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::adjusts course again now that they've run on a tangent from the battle, adjust back towards the ships::
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@::Replies to Mornal almost immediately, agreeing to coordinate phaser assaults::
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
@XO: I'm sending cloaked ships coordinates to the helm.
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
<aTO_Ens_Mornal>  CO:  I have Commander Damrok, ma'am.  As soon as their phasers are online, he's going to coordinate with us.
MO_Lt_Brooks says:
van Kampen: Looks like a string of escape pods were taken out in the battle. Hope we can either suck it in or hold our breaths.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::receives the coordinates and sets course::  CTO/TO: Prepare photon torpedoes and a tachyon burst.
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
::Nods::  ::hoping this works, she watches the screen.::
Host SMDrew says:
@ACTION / ACTION:  The fighters break off their attack and cloak.
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
<RN_WO_van Kampen>  ::Thumps his chest once::  MO:  I've got good lungs.  ::Smiles, if a tinge uneasily at the end::
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
<aTO_Ens_Mornal>  CO:  Fighters cloaking.  Don't have them on sensors, Captain.
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
aTO: Send a message to the other Claymore and see if they can bring their warp engines online.
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@XO:  They've cloaked, Sir.  Phaser capacitors are now almost at nominal.  Looking at the other Claymore's shields, however, it doesn't look like having the shield generators online will be of much help to us anyway.  The ion beams employed by the fighter craft are passing right through.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::sends coordinates of cloaked vessel to Damrok::  CTO: Let's go to the source, then.
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
<aTO_Ens_Mornal>  ::Relays the message to Damrok::
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@XO:  Sir, Claymore wants to know if we have warp capability.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::looks back towards Matthews, then realizes he's piloting the ship::
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@::Finishes reloading the torpedo launchers::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@<CMC_MCPO_Matthews>  XO/CTO: Warp engines are online. However, they appear to have taken some damage, and we'll be lucky to get to warp five.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@CTO: Commander, target those coordinates with tachyon bursts.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::prepares to make a pass by and past the vessel::
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@::Sends to Mornal::
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
<aTO_Ens_Mornal>  CO:  Commander Damrok says they can push warp five, tops, Captain.
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
::Watches on the viewer the other Claymore break away::  FCO: Ensign, set a course in and follow the other Claymore.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::watches as the viewer reveals...nothing...yet he feels somewhat panicked::
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
@::Still monitoring the cloaked ship, ready to transmit any coordinate change just in case.::
Host SMDrew says:
@ACTION:  The massive Dobian vessel decloaks in front of the past Claymore.  Even at distance its size is staggering.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::he decides now that "somewhat" is no longer necessary::
FCO_Ens_Carter says:
::nods and sets course to follow the past Claymore:: Self: Holy... what is that huge thing?
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@XO:  Well, there it is...the source.  ::Raises his finger up over the "fire all" button, but does not press it::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@CTO: Tachyon bursts, Commander..!
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
@XO: I'm reading 45,000 life signs!
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@XO:  Aye sir!  ::Directs the deflector to fire the tachyon bursts::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::watches the bright lights fire from Claymore's deflector, and he directs the ship to pass underneath the great vessel, just as he sees T'Shara's Claymore following them in, although at a little distance just yet::
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
aTO: Match our weapons to the other Claymore's on their target.
OPS_Ens_Kendal says:
<TO_Ens_Logan> ::also hesitates with his hand almost on the button::
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
::Barely audible:: XO: It's almost one hundred twenty six million, six hundred fifty thousand metric tons.
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
@XO: Sir, I'm picking up fifty ion cannons and twenty long range ion torpedo tubes.  This may be a fight we can't win this way.
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
<aTO_Ens_Mornal>  CO:  Contact decloaking directly ahead...it's...  ::Just kind of trails off::  ...it's huge.  ::Shakes his head, knocking the awe loose::  ...Aye, Captain.  ::Locks all phasers and prepares to fire, glancing at Logan::
OPS_Ens_Kendal says:
::continues to try and find a countermeasure to the ion weapons::
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
@::Continues scanning and weeding through the information as she sees it looking for other important items.::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::continues on course -past- the vessel, bringing Claymore about once again::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::brings Claymore to a stop::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@SO: Hail the ship.
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
OPS: Can you find anything to counter their weapons?
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
@XO: Aye Sir.  ::Opens hailing frequencies.::
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
<aTO_Ens_Mornal>  ::Waits, extremely tense::
Host SMDrew says:
@ACTION / ACTION:  A solid blue light begins to pass through both Claymores.  Sensors will show its an active scan of all systems and personnel.
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@::Takes a deep breath, sliding his hand back down to rest on the edge of the console, waiting::  XO:  We're being scanned.
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
@XO: We're being scanned, and I doubt that's a good thing.
OPS_Ens_Kendal says:
CO: Not ye— ::watches the beam::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@CTO/SO: Thank you.
Host SMDrew says:
<Dobian_Vessel> COM:  Your ships will be added to our fleet.  You will surrender.
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
::Watches the blue light pass through the bridge, looking around::
OPS_Ens_Kendal says:
CO: They are asking for our surrender again, Captain.
FCO_Ens_Carter says:
::hears the message from the big ship:: OPS: Tell them to shove it.
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
OPS/TO: What are their warp capabilities?
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@COM: Dobian Vessel: What are your terms?
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::sends a message to Damrok::
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@::Looks down at his console::
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@::Sends an encrypted message to Mornal::
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
<aTO_Ens_Mornal>  CO:  Captain, Commander Davis sends that he plans to make a run for it.  Heading one eighty, warp six.
Host SMDrew says:
<Dobian_Vessel> COM:  There are no terms.  Your vessels will be added to our fleet.  Your crew will serve.
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
@XO: According to ongoing scans, the other ship seems to have warp capability up to warp seven.
Host SMDrew says:
@ACTION / ACTION:  Tractor beams lock onto both Claymores.
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
::Sends a message to Mornal and nods::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::feels the shudder of a tractor beam, not needing a report of its presence::
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
<aTO_Ens_Mornal>  ::Checks his console, shuddering as the tractor beams lock on::
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
::Shakes in her chair as she feels the tractor beam::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@CTO: Target the source of the tractor beam. Fire at will.
FCO_Ens_Carter says:
::tries to maneuver out of the tractor beam::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::sets course one hundred eighty and enters velocity of warp factor one::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::waits to engage::
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@::Sends to Mornal to try to break the tractor beam, then opens fire with all facing phasers and torpedoes directly at the tractor beam emitter::
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
FCO: Engage full warp.
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
<aTO_Ens_Mornal>  CO:  The other Claymore is opening fire on the tractor emitters...orders, Captain?
FCO_Ens_Carter says:
CO: Yes, Ma'am. ::punches in full warp::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::adjusts velocity to warp three suddenly and engages engines::
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
aTO: Open fire as well
Host SMDrew says:
ACTION: The Claymore's warp engages, but the Claymore stays in place.
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
<aTO_Ens_Mornal>  ::Fires all facing phasers at the tractor beam emitter::
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
<aTO_Ens_Mornal>  CO:  Firing.  ::Glances to Logan::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::watches as the engines struggle, without the gratification of going anywhere::
Host SMDrew says:
ACTION:  Surface explosions along the tractor beam emitters cause a brief stutter from the tractor beams.  Both Claymores warp out and away from the Dobian Vessel.
Host SMDrew says:
ACTION:  The Dobian vessel begins to follow.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::feels a sudden jolt as they break free, and once he recovers from the whiplash he adjusts speed to warp five::
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@::Begins preparations to reverse deflector polarity to try to shake free, before the sudden lurch of the Claymore leaping to warp::
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
@::Inhales slightly as both Claymore's warp out together.::
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
@XO: The other Claymore made it out with us.
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@XO:  We have a slight head start, but they will catch up to us.  We need a way to destabilize their warp field.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@COM: Claymore (current): Captain, I suggest we head in different directions. At least we can make things -somewhat- interesting.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@CTO/SO: Suggestions?
FCO_Ens_Carter says:
::continues at maximum warp::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@CTO/SO: I'd rather not pull a warp core special here.
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@::Looks to Rillian, hoping she has an idea::
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
@XO: I'm a scientist, not an engineer.
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
TO: Fire full aft salvo of quantum torpedoes, maximum yield.
OPS_Ens_Kendal says:
<TO_Ens_Logan> ::Opens fire::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::frowns::  SO: Not what I was hoping to hear, Ensign.
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
COM: Claymore: Head toward Collector's space and we will beam you aboard. Leave your Claymore at max warp.
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
@XO:  Sorry, Sir.  There's a reason they won't let me in engineering.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::adjusts heading again, this time towards Collector's space as T'Shara suggests::  COM: Claymore (current): Course laid in. We're standing by.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@CTO: Lower shields, if they are even up still.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@CTO: We're getting the hell off this thing.
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@XO:  Never managed to raise them in the first place, Sir.  Generators were really lagging with all the power draw.
Host SMDrew says:
ACTION:  Ten quantum torpedoes fire from the aft torpedo pod and spread out into the Dobian vessels path.  Explosions erupt across its forward section.  It drops from warp.  For now....
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
OPS: Get a lock on the away team and beam them aboard when ready.
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
@::Does a double-take::  XO:  Sir...the other Claymore's torpedo salvo appears to have dropped the enemy target from warp.
OPS_Ens_Kendal says:
::frowns to himself, then begins compensating for the warp pad drift:: *TC*: Bridge to transporter room one, stand by for beam in.
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
<aTO_Ens_Mornal>  ::Smiles and looks at Logan::  CO:  That last torpedo bombardment knocked them out of warp, Captain.
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
@::moves within an acceptable warp transport distance::
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
@::I hate transporters on the best of days doing it at a standstill.::
OPS_Ens_Kendal says:
::locks and energizes:: Aloud: Energizing
Host SMDrew says:
@ACTION:  The away team beam off the Claymore from the past and onto the current Claymore, safe and sound in transporter room one.
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
::With a slight smile::  aTO: Good work Ensign.  That should hold them off or at least give us a bit of a head start.
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
::Opens her eyes back on what she assumes is the original Claymore.::
CO_Capt_T'Shara says:
FCO: Set a course for the void space, maximum warp.
CTO_LtCmdr_Damrok says:
::Sighs with a small measure of relief as he sees the sparkling lights disappear and the slightly-more-solid version of Claymore appear before him::
XO_Cmdr_Davis says:
::feels the transport process, but doesn't feel like he's really went anywhere, aside from the distance from the Bridge to Transporter Room 1::
OPS_Ens_Kendal says:
<TC_CPO_Butler> ::watches the team materialize:: *Bridge*: Away team is accounted for.
SO_Ens_Rillian says:
::Slips her tricorder into a pocket on her pants and steps off the pad.::
Host SMDrew says:
ACTION:  As the call goes across the bridge that the away team is accounted for, the Claymore and her crew vanishes in a bright flash of light.  The comm crackles as Deep Space 3 continues to contact the Claymore, which is orbiting Hatder 14.
Host SMDrew says:
