ARC 14 - Blowing Kisses in the Wind - Mission 19 - 11402.11

Summary:  The Claymore now hidden in a large gas giant within the Frontier Sector makes repairs and Senior Officers decide their next move.  Meanwhile Commander Senn and Commander Damrok have landed on a small planetoid with Admiral Smyth and Colonel Stiegler.   The underground outpost houses several small science labs, and a wide array of information gathering stations tied to some of the most advanced sensor equipment Starfleet Intel has to offer.

******************************** Resume Mission *********************************

OPS Lt Fong says:
::On the bridge at the operations console flicking through screens and displays as he checks clearance codes, and looks for a transporter signature in the sensor logs that they have available.::
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
::For the second time in his checkered career, sitting in the center seat, making sure the ship...errr... stays parked::
MO Ens Stevens says:
::In the make shift medbay triple checking charts before forwarding the information to Raeyld's PADD::
CTO Lt Kytides says:
::Stands at primary tactical, finally having had time to check the full damage to the ship and crew::
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
OPS;  Lt...  status of repair efforts?
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
CTO:  Lt Kytides..  do you have full sensor capabilities?  Would hate to get snuck up on while we're busy hiding.
OPS Lt Fong says:
::Looks over at the helm station for a moment:: CAG: We'll probably need another ten or twelve hours to patch everything up.  We'll need starbase time to fix the turbolifts and major hull damage.
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
OPS:  What are our operational limitations?
Colonel Stiegler says:
@::Looks over the latest reports from the operations center.::
MO Ens Stevens says:
::Hurries over the patients in critical condition and checks the readings again before pulling her hair back out of her face and looking around the cargo bay::
OPS Lt Fong says:
CAG: I'm going to need to deploy some work bees to move some plate into place over the hull breaches.
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
OPS:  Understood.  Don't deploy anything you're not willing to lose if we have to bug out of here.
CTO Lt Kytides says:
::Nods, going over the sensors in full for a moment::  CAG:  Sensors working fully.
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
CTO:  Excellent.  And you have full weapons capabilities?
CSO Cmdr Senn says:
@::Still lying on her cot, looking up at the ceiling she once again mentally reviewed what they knew.::
OPS Lt Fong says:
CAG: Computer access is operational, structural integrity is lower then I'm comfortable with, I've boosted the fields some, Turbolifts are operating at limited functionality.  We still haven't managed to get DC teams into sickbay to know the extent of the damage there.
TO1 Lt Kingston says:
::At secondary tactical, looking at the tactical roster to choose personnel who can be temporarily farmed out to other departments to expedite repairs::
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
::Nods::  OPS:  Thank you.  What about engines?  Full warp and impulse capabilities?
XO LtCmdr Damrok says:
@::Rings the chime outside the room where he's been told Senn is staying::
PO3 Lauren says:
::Cries out in a sudden grip of pain, as she lies on a cot in the make-shift sickbay::
MO Ens Stevens says:
::Brings up the damage assessment reports and adding names to the KIA and MIA list::
OPS Lt Fong says:
CAG: Warp and impulse drives are operational at the moment.  The work bees are replaceable sir, their pilots are not.  It is your call.
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
::Frowns slightly::  OPS:  Transporters operational?
CTO Lt Kytides says:
::Frowns very slightly at that, but nods again::  CAG:  Weapons and shields also appear to be fine, though armor is damaged.
MO Ens Stevens says:
::Sets the PADD down quickly and rushes over to Lauren:: PO: Lauren, what's going on?
CSO Cmdr Senn says:
@::It takes a moment for her to realize she heard something.  She quickly sits up and moves to the door.  She stepped back a bit after hitting the entrance button.::
OPS Lt Fong says:
CAG: At the moment, they are.
XO LtCmdr Damrok says:
@CSO:  Commander.  I hope I'm not interrupting.
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
CTO:  Thank you.  Have you started repairs on the armor or will it take a Starbase?
PO3 Lauren says:
::Gripping her stomach tightly with her hands, her entire body convulses once, as alarms begin to ring around her:: ::Through gritted teeth:: MO: My...my stoma----  ::With another convulsion, her eyes roll back, as she begins to seize::
CSO Cmdr Senn says:
@::Looks behind her wryly and then back.::  XO:  Interrupt what?  I have already counted all the flaws in the ceiling twice.  ::Steps back to allow him in.::
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
OPS:  Deploy the minimum number you need.  Have the Transporter Chief maintain a lock on the pilots.
CNS Lt Foster says:
::Steps into the makeshift sickbay having just come from checking in with Gladwyn, glancing around seeing how things were fairing here.::
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
*CMO*: Commander Raeyld...  status of your sickbay relocation efforts?
OPS Lt Fong says:
::Answering for the CTO::  CAG: As I said, the major hull repairs will require a starbase.  We are just patching them for now so we don't have to run force fields all the time.  We can do that.  We will also need to extend the shields to cover the bees so they can maneuver in this soup. ::Motions to the viewscreen::
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
::Nods::  OPS/CTO:  Thank you.  Extend the shields as needed.
CO Capt T’Shara says:
::Steps in just behind the Counselor, stops and glances around a moment.::  CNS: Counselor.
XO LtCmdr Damrok says:
@::Smiles and takes a step inside::  CSO:  Have you spoken with anyone lately?
CNS Lt Foster says:
::Turns quickly at sound of the captain’s voice.::  CO:  Hello captain.
MO Ens Stevens says:
::Checks Lauren's vitals and waves another medical officer over::
Colonel Stiegler says:
@::Brings the latest report to the Commander center and rings the chime.::
Admiral Smyth says:
@Outloud:  Come  ::Looks up from the monitor to the door.::
CO Capt T’Shara says:
CNS: How are you doing?  And how are things going down here..
CSO Cmdr Senn says:
@::Shakes her head::  XO:  I do not even know what I would say let alone ask at the moment.  There are too many things about this situation that just do not make sense.
Colonel Stiegler says:
@::Enters the room.::  Adm:  Sorry to interrupt.  Thought you might want a report on the Claymore.
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
CTO:  Any brilliant tactical ideas on how to track our XO and CSO?  ::Smiles hopefully::  I'd be really, really impressed if you did...
XO LtCmdr Damrok says:
@::Nods slowly::  CSO:  I have felt similarly...I've just been... ::Makes a small sweeping motion with him arm::  ...out walking.  I assumed that if we would be needed, they would let us know.
Admiral Smyth says:
@Col:  Absolutely Colonel.
CNS Lt Foster says:
CO:  I'm holding up captain.  ::Turns and surveys the room.::  As for things here not sure, had a few other things I had to take care of and just now got here to see how it was going and if I could help out any.
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
::Frowns as he realizes the CMO hasn't responded::  *CMO*: Doctor, status please.
MT CM1 Johnson says:
MO: I don't know what happened, everything was just fine.
OPS Lt Fong says:
CTO: Raising shields now.  We'll need to keep them up until the work bees finish up.  ::Modifies the shield shape and presses the button to raise them::
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
OPS:  Acknowledged
CSO Cmdr Senn says:
@::Moves to sit on the bed, leaving the chair for him.::  XO:  Why... why did they take us to begin with.  And how... how did they get aboard in the first place?  What vessel brought them?
Colonel Stiegler says:
@::Nods.::  Adm:  Good news they departed at warp nine about three hours ago.  We tracked them into one of the smaller systems.  Since then they went off the sensors.  I suspect they found a safe place to hide to make some repairs and regroup.
CTO Lt Kytides says:
::Nods to Fong and starts to respond to Hawk, before noticing an incoming report  and quickly reading over it before nodding once::  CAG:  No, but full tactical report on the bodies just compiled.
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
::Winces::  CTO:  And?
Admiral Smyth says:
@Col:  That is good news.   ::Stands and moves to the replicator.::  Any chance of getting them  a private message?
MO Ens Stevens says:
MT: Give her 2mg of Morphenolog. PO: Lauren, if you can hear me, I'm going to remove your surgical patches. You're going to be fine.
PO3 Lauren says:
::Continues to convulse, incoherent of Stevens' reassurances::
CO Capt T’Shara says:
::Takes a few steps looking around the room.::  CNS: Aye, that is why I am here to see how things were going as well.  I know you all have your hands full with moving everyone and setting this up.
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
::Stifles a curse as still no answer from the CMO::  *MO*: Stevens, are YOU there?
MO Ens Stevens says:
::Holds Lauren down:: MT: Johnson! Now! We have to get her open!
OPS Lt Fong says:
::Forwards a copy of the shield's new shape to the flight deck for the pilots, and signals the TIC that the repair crews are cleared to be deployed.  He then signals the transporter rooms to keep continuious locks on the pilots that have launched.::
MO Ens Stevens says:
*CAG* A little busy, Captain. But yes, why?
Colonel Stiegler says:
@Adm: Normally I would say yes.  However given our enemy I would not tip our hand at this point.  ::Looks at the PADD.::  I've reviewed my scans of the Claymore.  Given her damage they would need a good four to eight hours to repair.  I'd like to at least let them complete that unless we see anything change from long range sensors.
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
*MO*:  Is your CMO still alive?  If she is, remind her she has a commbadge and "request" that she respond to the bridges request for a status report.
PO3 Lauren says:
::Begins to flail wildly as she chokes on built-up saliva in her throat. More alarms shriek::
CTO Lt Kytides says:
CAG:  Not much there, but they weren't shot by phasers from the Claymore.  Which leaves either betrayal or third party.
MT CM1 Johnson says:
::Shakily sets her hypospray to the right setting and sticks it into Lauren's arm::
Admiral Smyth says:
@::Nods taking a glass of water out of the replicator.::  Col:  Good inform our guests that we will not be making a move for the next eight hours.  That gives the Claymore some time.
XO LtCmdr Damrok says:
@::Has a seat in the chair::  CSO:  I couldn't really tell you, other than they wanted us out of the way for their plans.  Why they didn't just...  ::Shakes his head again::  ...I don't know.  I have no answers.
CSO Cmdr Senn says:
@XO: So what do you want to do next?
Colonel Stiegler says:
@Adm:  I'll let them know Admiral.  ::Nods and exits the room.::
CNS Lt Foster says:
::Nods to the captain.::  CO: Yes captain, it was definitely a shock to go from sickbay to deck 2 in the blink of an eye.  How's the rest of the ship doing?
MO Ens Stevens says:
*CAG*: If she turns up on one of the beds, I'll let you know. I'll alert her to the rest if I. ::Gets cut short as Lauren's arm hits her in the mouth::
OPS Lt Fong says:
::Gives the CAG a look, but then goes back to coordinating the damage control teams::
Colonel Stiegler says:
@::Walks through the small corridor and enters the stairway.::
PO3 Lauren says:
::Her convulsions fade, but are over-taken by her flailing, as one arm catches Stevens in the mouth, and the other hits Johnson across the cheek. Barely aware, she starts clawing at the air::
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
*MO*:  Understood.  ::Sighs::  Stevens, tell her when she has a moment to call the bridge with a status report.  The injured are the priority.  Hawk out.
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
CTO:  You're suggesting the attack team killed their own people?
MO Ens Stevens says:
::Curses loudly and sets her hypospray to deliver another dose of Morphenolog and gives Lauren the shot:: MT: Johnson, scalpel.
OPS Lt Fong says:
::Taps a request into the ship's computer and frowns at the results, then focuses on the task at hand.::
MT CM1 Johnson says:
::Grabs a nearby scalpel and hands it to Stevens::
CO Capt T’Shara says:
::Looks down for a moment and then back to Foster, walking to the side of him a bit::  CNS: I don't have to tell you about the deck to deck situation as you lived it.  We have hull breaches throughout the ship, which are being secured by forcefields thanks to Mr. Fong.  Most of the systems are back online, now begins the repairs.
CTO Lt Kytides says:
::Shrugs slightly, the motion showing his confusion at the whole situation::  CAG:  Hard to say, but if it wasn't us it had to be either them or someone else.  They seemed too trained and prepared to do something like that in the middle of an attack, though.
MO Ens Stevens says:
MT: Hold her down. If it gets too hard, use a small dose of Merfadon. I don't want an overdose case though so be frugal. ::Starts to cut the sutures from surgery open::
FCO Ens Ra says:
CAG:  Captain Hawk.  Sir I'm getting some anomalies from helm control.
PO3 Lauren says:
::Continues to choke on the saliva that slid down the wrong tube during her convulsions, struggling frantically to cough as she regains a semblance of consciousness::
Colonel Stiegler says:
@::Moves down the stairs quickly into the quarters and mess deck.::
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
FCO:   Anomalies?  Specify.
MO Ens Stevens says:
::Notices Lauren choking and grabs for the suction:: MT: Oxygen, and then suction down here please.
FCO Ens Ra says:
CAG:  To keep us at station keeping the thrusters are fighting against the atmospheric currents.  But I'm getting more of a port side push then I've calculated.  It could be hull damage, but this seems like more sir.
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
::Frowns:: CTO:  Anything on sensors to port?
Colonel Stiegler says:
@::Stops at the quarters assigned to the Claymore crew and rings the chime.::
CTO Lt Kytides says:
::Squashes the uncomfortable thoughts and checks sensors, nodding to Kingston at secondary to be on alert too::
XO LtCmdr Damrok says:
@CSO:  I was thinking about going to see Stiegler.  He might have some news fo-- ::Looks up as the chime rings, then stands::  Aloud:  Come in.
CSO Cmdr Senn says:
@::Turns to look at the door.::
CO Capt T’Shara says:
CNS: There is something else I need to tell you Counselor.
MT CM1 Johnson says:
::Quickly gets the saliva out of Lauren's throat and puts the oxygen mask on her before moving the suction down to the bleeding::
Colonel Stiegler says:
@::Enters the room.::  XO/CSO:  Sorry to interrupt.  I've got a report I thought you would be interested in.
CNS Lt Foster says:
::Turns back to the captain.::  CO:  Yes captain?
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
CTO:  Kytides...  I'm sorry, I know it's not your specialty, but I want you to also slave the science station sensors to your station.  Let me know if you can explain what our FCO is seeing.
CSO Cmdr Senn says:
@Col:  This 'war' is over with?
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
FCO:  Can you compensate?
MO Ens Stevens says:
::Finishes cutting the sutures open:: MT: Light, please
FCO Ens Ra says:
::Keeps looking at the controls looking over the readings.::  CAG:  Yes I can keep us here.
CTO Lt Kytides says:
::Grimaces as he nods, adding science sensors to his own and going through the readings again, focusing on the port side first::
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
FCO:  Thank you Ensign...  let me know if it gets worse.
MT CM1 Johnson says:
::Grabs a pen light with her free hand and holds it over the wound while checking Lauren's vitals::
CO Capt T’Shara says:
CNS: We have discovered after no communication from Commander Damrok or Senn for a long time.  That they both have disappeared along with the shuttle they were on.  We don't know for sure when it happened but it is logical to believe they disappeared during the intruders and explosions aboard the ship.
OPS Lt Fong says:
FCO: Could it be the modified shield configuration?
Colonel Stiegler says:
@CSO:  I wish it was that good.   ::Looks over the PADD.::  XO/CSO:  The Claymore has moved about one light year deeper into the Frontier Sector at warp 9.  We lost tracking about 3 hours later with them entering a small system.  Their last position suggested they might be heading to one of the large gas giants in that system.  We can't be sure. but I'm guessing they found a hiding place to make repairs and regroup.  Seeing them under their own power gives me hope.  ::Offers the PADD.::  I have the scans of the Claymore before we departed.   It contains the damage reports.
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
*CO*:  Captain, this is Hawk.  As ordered, we at station and repairs are under way.  Ens Ra is holding position, but reports and unusual "push" from the port side.  Nothing on sensors at this point, but we're continuing scans.  Right now, the cause is unknown.
CNS Lt Foster says:
::Feels a wrench in his stomach at hearing the news.::  CO:  I should have known something was up when Gladwyn said she hadn't heard from her but I've been so busy since the explosion haven't taken the time.  Do we have any clue where the shuttle went and who took it and them?
MO Ens Stevens says:
::Looks around inside the wound for anything unusual before looking back at the Lauren::
FCO Ens Ra says:
OPS:  I compensated for the shields sir.  It’s like we have a sail on us.  Something is being pushed against.
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
OPS:  Lt, have one of the bees do a visual inspection on that side.
CSO Cmdr Senn says:
@::Stands up to take the padd and sits back down.::
MO Ens Stevens says:
::Looks back inside for a minute before noticing something:: MT: Johnson, can you point the light at a lower angle? Right, there. Thanks
XO LtCmdr Damrok says:
@::Puts his hand to his chin::  Stiegler:  That makes sense as the best tactical decision.  ::Looks to Senn for any comment::
CO Capt T’Shara says:
*CAG*: Keep monitoring it.  Have one of the teams working on the hull check as well to see if they can detect anything and report in.
Colonel Stiegler says:
@XO/CSO:  I've suggested to Admiral Smyth we not try to make contact with the Claymore for eight hours.  I'm guessing with the amount of damage they need 4 to 8 hours to make repairs.  I don't want to give away their position unless its absolutely critical to do so.
CSO Cmdr Senn says:
@::Does a quick scan of the info and then looks up.::  XO:  If they are left in peace, maybe eight hours to complete their repairs.
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
::Grins::  *CO*  Excellent idea, Captain.  On it.
OPS Lt Fong says:
::Nods at the CAG:: *TIC* Bridge to TIC, We need a vis inspection port side dorsal. ::Looks at the FCO for confirmation:: *TIC*  We are looking for anything that could cause drag in this environment.
MO Ens Stevens says:
MT: She's got a collapsed lung and the other seems to be failing. Plus, on the dark side, it looks like we may have missed something
CTO Lt Kytides says:
::Gives his head a short shake::  CAG:  Nothing coming up on port, widening search.  ::Checks the starboard side next, since it would make the most sense after that::
CSO Cmdr Senn says:
@Col: Do we have any idea of the crew status itself?
FCO Ens Ra says:
OPS/CAG:  Wait.  I think I've got something.  Starboard, engineering hull.  ::Turns.::  I think we have a tic sir.
CO Capt T’Shara says:
CNS: I'm sorry Mr. Foster we don't have any clue at this time who took the shuttle or why.  I wish I had more answers and with the state the ship is in we are limited on what we can do for now on finding them.  But, I wanted you to hear it from me about Senn.
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
::Nods at the CTO:  CTO:  Of course, not...  that would be too easy.
CNS Lt Foster says:
::Nods.:: CO:  Thanks you captain, I appreciate that.
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
::Eyebrows raised::  FCO:  Ummm...  a "tic", Ensign?
FCO Ens Ra says:
::Puts it through to the main viewscreen.::  CAG:  Right there.  ::Magnifies.::   See that starboard warp access,  Its flickering.
MO Ens Stevens says:
MT: Make sure she gets enough oxygen, start a pump if you need. I'm going to need a minute and suction if you can.
FCO Ens Ra says:
CAG:  Yes a Tic sir.  An insect on Earth.
FCO Ens Ra says:
CAG:  I believe it’s a parasite sir.
OPS Lt Fong says:
::Looks at the helmsman again:: *TIC* Correction, Starboard engineering hull. Send us the visual feed when you get it, thank you.
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
CTO/OPS/FCO:  Okay....  anyone have any ideas as to what Ensign Ra's...  tic... is?
CO Capt T’Shara says:
::Bows her head slightly::  CNS: We will find them Counselor.
MO Ens Stevens says:
::Reaches inside Lauren and tries to remove whatever is catching the light:: MT: I'll need a surgical patch, this is going to bleed.
Colonel Stiegler says:
@CSO:  I have some partial detail from the shuttle before we left.  You can access it here from the workstation.  I've done a complete dump of the sensor data from the shuttle.
MO Ens Stevens says:
::Takes the patch from Johnson with her free hand and slowly starts to withdraw her other hand::
CSO Cmdr Senn says:
@::Nods with a slight sigh.  It was better than nothing.::  Col:  Meanwhile... what do you want or need of us?

ACTION:  The Main viewscreen comes to life showing the warp access hatch.  It shimmers as the gas moves around a small outline.

OPS Lt Fong says:
::Shrugs slightly at the CAG::  CAG: I suppose it sounds like a beetle.
CNS Lt Foster says:
CO:  I don't doubt that captain.
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
::Pauses to shoot a glare at Fong, then narrows his eye at the viewscreen::
PO3 Lauren says:
::Her eyes roll to the back of her head as she stops breathing::
MT CM1 Johnson says:
::Starts pumping oxygen for Lauren while watching Stevens::
CTO Lt Kytides says:
::Blinks up at main viewscreen before quickly looking down at sensors again::
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
CTO/OPS:  That outline looks like a small 2 man recon ship.  Like a Starfighter...
MO Ens Stevens says:
::Pulls out a small triangular piece of shrapnel while maneuvering the surgical patch into position:: MT: Keep her alive, Johnson. The bleeding should be stopped.
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
CTO:  Red Alert!
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
*CO*  Captain to the bridge
CO Capt T’Shara says:
::Smiles slightly at Foster.::  CNS: Now we had better find the Doctor and see.......
CTO Lt Kytides says:
::Signals red alert, having been poised to do so immediately::

ACTION:  The Claymore goes to red alert.

CAG Cptn Hawk says:
OPS:  Recover the bees
OPS Lt Fong says:
CAG: Would you like to send a DC team to investigate?
CO Capt T’Shara says:
::Before she can finish her thought she quickly turns at the call::  *CAG*: On my way Captain Hawk.
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
OPS:  Better yet, transport in your pilots, then bring shields to normal configuration.
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
OPS:  No, recover your teams
MO Ens Stevens says:
::Places the shrapnel on a tray and watches to make sure Lauren is breathing again before sitting down and watching the red light flash around with a look of annoyance:: MT: Here we go again
CO Capt T’Shara says:
CNS: Looks like I am needed on the bridge.  You are welcome to join me or if you feel you are needed more here.
OPS Lt Fong says:
::Looks at the CAG for a moment hoping that they managed to get some work done::*TIC*: Recall all work bees and pods.
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
CTO:  I want a security team at that access point on the double.
CO Capt T’Shara says:
::Turns before saying anymore and heads for the nearest lift.::
CNS Lt Foster says:
CO:  I believe for now I'll be of more use here for now captain.
CO Capt T’Shara says:
CNS: Aye, Counselor.  ::Her voice trails as she enters the lift::
CTO Lt Kytides says:
::Half-turns his head and tells Kingston to handle the teams at large, tapping his commbadge in the next moment::  *MA:*  Kytides to Golarex, take your team to starboard warp access hatch immediately.
OPS Lt Fong says:
CAG: All due respect sir, If that was going to attack us it would already have done so.  If we leave the work bees out there without controls in place we could cause more damage at this point.
CO Capt T’Shara says:
TL: Bridge
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
::Starts to snap an answer, then stops himself::  OPS:  Very well.  Recover your bees as quickly as possible, then reconfigure shields.
OPS Lt Fong says:
::Nods:: CAG: I already sent the order, sir.
Colonel Stiegler says:
@CSO/XO:  To make use of our extra manpower I have a mission I'd like you to attempt.  It may not be an easy one and I can't make you go, but I think it would be helpful.
CO Capt T’Shara says:
::Her thoughts wonder what has happened now as the doors open onto the bridge.  Stepping out onto the bridge before she can get to the center::  CAG: Report.
OPS Lt Fong says:
*TIC* Advise when all equipment is recovered.
CSO Cmdr Senn says:
@::Nods for him to go on, she was listening.::
MA SCPO Golarex says:
::Changes from getting into his team's usual patrol pattern during red alerts to moving at a dash toward the nearest turbolift::  *CTO:*  On our way sir.
XO LtCmdr Damrok says:
@Stiegler:  I wouldn't presume to speak for Commander Senn, or even Ensign Senezem, for that matter, but I would like to do whatever I can to assist.
MO Ens Stevens says:
MT: Stay with the Petty Officer, I'm sure that I'm needed elsewhere. ::Stands up and quickly changes her gloves before starting to walk to the other critical patients:: MT: By the way, well done Johnson.
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
::Steps away from chair::  CO:  We have a visual on what appears to be a 2 man recon craft, possibly trying to gain access to the ship  ::Nods at the screen::  We are at Red Alert, recovering our bees and I've sent a security team to that access hatch.
CNS Lt Foster says:
::Turns away from the lift back to the emergency ward.  Looking for the doctor on duty to see where he could help.::
Colonel Stiegler says:
@CSO/XO:  I have a Danube fueled and ready to fly.  I'd like for someone to go check out a nearby binary system.   This system has several M Class planets.  However we had a survey vessel go missing about 6 months ago near that area.   Some sensors from DS3 picked up some off readings in the area.  I'd like you both to do some recon.
MA SCPO Golarex says:
::Enters the turbolift and orders it to the hatch as soon as everyone's in, waiting impatiently and going over equipment::
CSO Cmdr Senn says:
@Col:  Do you have any suspicions?
CO Capt T’Shara says:
::Walks down to the center near Hawk, looking up at the screen as he fills her in.::  CAG: Could it be how the intruders got aboard and possibly to do with the disappearance of Damrok and Senn.
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
CO:  I don't know Captain, but that possibility occurred.  Red Alert may be an overreaction, but until we know...  ::Shrugs::
Colonel Stiegler says:
@CSO:  I have enough to ask you both to go check things out.   I've had a gut feeling for some time now that everything seems to be centered in this area.  I'd like to see if my hunches are still correct.
CO Capt T’Shara says:
::Nods::  CAG: Good work Mr. Hawk and given our current situation and what we have been through recently it was a logical choice.
CSO Cmdr Senn says:
@::Looks at Damrok::
XO LtCmdr Damrok says:
@::Weighs it for a moment, even though he doesn't really need to do so::  Stiegler:  I'll go, Colonel.   ::Looks to Senn::
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
::Nods::  CO:  Thank you Captain.  I stand relieved.  ::Moves to his console::
CO Capt T’Shara says:
CAG/CTO: Hopefully the tactical team can tell us more once they have checked out the situation,.
CO Capt T’Shara says:
::Nods::  CAG: Thank you Mr. Hawk.
OPS Lt Fong says:
CAG/CO: I think I can get a transporter lock on whatever that is.
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
::Catches Fong's eyes and nods toward the Captain::
MA SCPO Golarex says:
::Taps his commbadge a split second after the turbolift comes to a stop::  *CTO*:  In position and going in now, sir.  ::Takes a breath as the doors open and eases his way out phaser-first, unusually grim considering the day so far::
Colonel Stiegler says:
@::Nods at Damrok with a smile.::
CSO Cmdr Senn says:
@::Simply nods her head.  She needed to be doing something as well, though she still had way too many questions.  But her brother trusted Stiegler... ok, so it was sometimes a love/hate relationship.::
CO Capt T’Shara says:
OPS: Without knowing what the vessel is attached to I think it is safer for now to wait for the tactical team.  ::Looks to Kytides::
PO3 Lauren says:
::Slowly begins to regain consciousness::
MT CM1 Johnson says:
PO: Lauren, how are you feeling?
XO LtCmdr Damrok says:
@Stiegler:  When do we leave?
PO3 Lauren says:
::Blinks several times, groaning, lightly, groggily:: MO: I...I... ::Swallows with difficulty, through a dry mouth:: ...I hurt...   ::Sort of yawns:: ...but, I feel...okay.
Colonel Stiegler says:
@CSO/XO:  You can depart anytime.  It should take about 12 hours at max warp.  The Danube has some special equipment onboard to help hide you.  I'm not sure what that would be, but I've been told by people who do not exists that it is the best stealth equipment one can hope for.
OPS Lt Fong says:
::Checks the ship's power relays for any unexplainable drains.::
CTO Lt Kytides says:
CO:  Tactical team in place, investigating now.  The disappearance of Damrok's team, if that was the boarders' entry point, is even more confused.
CSO Cmdr Senn says:
@::Stands::  XO: I will go get Senezem.
XO LtCmdr Damrok says:
@CSO:  Very good.  I'll meet you in the shuttlebay.  Stiegler:  Is there anything else we should know?
MA SCPO Golarex says:
::Moves out quicker now, having not been shot at, and holds position as the rest of the team come out, just in case, before moving on to the hatch::
Colonel Stiegler says:
@XO:  If you find anything or anyone.   Use your own judgment.  Arrest it or destroy it.  It’s your call.
CSO Cmdr Senn says:
@Col:  Also... can we get some basic supplies?  We kind of left in a hurry.
MT CM1 Johnson says:
PO: I'll get you some water. Can you breathe easier?
CSO Cmdr Senn says:
@::Pauses at the door for an answer before getting their security officer::
CTO Lt Kytides says:
CO:  The two dead in Shuttlebay seem to have been the boarders, but weren't killed by us.  If there were only two aboard from a two-man recon ship, there has to be someone else involved.
Colonel Stiegler says:
@CSO:  Grab whatever you need.  The Danube is equipped with weapons, gear, and supplies.  But feel free to grab more before you go.
OPS Lt Fong says:
CO/CAG: All systems showing as nominal. Looks like whatever that is is attached to the starboard warp anti-mater ejection hatch::
PO3 Lauren says:
::Blinks, and yawns again, and tries to pull herself up into a sitting position, but cringes instead, grasping her belly:: MT: Yeah...yeah...except when it hurts... But I'm okay. I'm okay.
XO LtCmdr Damrok says:
@::Nods::  Stiegler:  Understood.  ::Doesn't especially like the idea of having full operational discretion with virtually no forward intelligence -- it makes it difficult to plan -- but at least it's flexible::
MA SCPO Golarex says:
::Begins scanning with his tricorder at the hatch, but grimacing after not long::  *CTO*:  Something's jamming the sensors, sir.  Nothing reading from the hatch.
CAG Cptn Hawk says:
::Glances at the CO::  CO:  Have the security team try to board the ship?
CNS Lt Foster says:
::Spots Stevens moving among the patients and moves over to her.::  MO:  Where can I help doctor?
CO Capt T’Shara says:
::Raises an eyebrow and turns to look at Kytides::  CTO: Do we know for sure they came from that vessel?  Agreed someone else had to have been here but how.
MT CM1 Johnson says:
::Tries to stop her. PO: You should try and rest. You need to just get better soon. I'll be right back with your water.
CSO Cmdr Senn says:
@::With a nod, she exits, heading down the hall.  A few doors down, she activates the chimes.::  aTO:  Wake up Senezem.
CO Capt T’Shara says:
OPS: Noted Mr. Fong.
CTO Lt Kytides says:
CO:  Not yet, Captain.  Team reports they can't get any readings from the hatch.  Must have jamming equipment on board.
CO Capt T’Shara says:
CTO: Can your team do a scan from outside the ship to detect if anyone else is aboard?
MO Ens Stevens says:
::Brushes her hair out her face again:: CNS: Glad to see you again. We've still got a few in critical condition and almost lost another but looks like that disaster was averted. Can you check up on Petty Officer Lauren? We just did a surgery and she's in bad shape.
CO Capt T’Shara says:
::Nods::  CTO: Most logical idea Lieutenant.  Can your team determine how they entered the ship then.
CTO Lt Kytides says:
::Nods slowly::  CO:  They can check nearby access points.  Though there was some thought the boarders might have had short-range transporters of some kind, considering how fast they moved from Engineering to Sickbay.
PO3 Lauren says:
::Rubs at her eyes  tiredly and yawns again, before gripping her stomach once more, in vague, if inexplicable, pain::
CO Capt T’Shara says:
CTO: Agreed.
