CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
@::ducks for cover::

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
::straightens her uniform as she arrives at the bridge and heads for science::

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
@::yells for that emergency beam out::

TO_Ens_Koraz says:
::on the bridge at the tac station waiting for something to happen::

SO_LtJG_Sumner says:
::notices the CSO and gets out of her chair::

Host SMurf says:
SCENE: The XO and CEO are knocked unconscious.

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
::approaches Sumner:: SO: I hear you disabled the defences with some old fashion cyber attack. Good job. What is the current situation?

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
@ ::tumbles to the ground with a hell of a thump::

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
COM: WARBIRD:  Kraken to Warbird, cease fire damn you, you're firing on my people!

Host SMurf says:
ACTION: The warbird responds that they were defending the away team by removing the threat to them.

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
::glances at the viewscreen thinking that can't be good::

TO_Ens_Koraz says:
::Hears the yell for an emergency beam out quickly slaves transporter and beams the away team out hoping she did it right::

TO_Ens_Koraz says:
CO: Sir I cannot lock on to the away team and they are yelling for a beam out

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
aFCO:  Move us in front of the Warbird!

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
TO: All power to our shields.

TO_Ens_Koraz says:
::Brings full power to shield hoping the engineering team won't moan at her:: CO: shields at their best sir

TO_Ens_Koraz says:
CO: Sir the away team?

SO_LtJG_Sumner_1 says:
CSO: The Warbird just fired near the AT's position, supposedly trying to hit their attackers. It's all kind of a mess.

Host SMurf says:
ACTION: The XO and CEO wake up - the forcefield has saved them from the blast, but they are buried under lots of rubble. They are in a small confined area of just a few metres.

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
@ ::coughs::

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
@::opens his eyes, his ears ringing::

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
::nods:: SO: So, we need to find a way to get them from there. ::looks over the sensor readings::

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
@ ::groans and rolls onto her front, hissing at the pain...everywhere::

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
TO: contact the away team and tell them to lower the defense shields, we cant get a lock on them otherwise.

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
@::coughs up some dust and tries to sit up, hitting his head on forcefield:: Out loud: Ow!

Host SMurf says:
<FCO_Zorn> ::carries out the COs orders and moves the ship in front of the Warbird::

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
::watches the warbird take over the viewscreen and wonders what would happen if they simply opened fire at this point::

TO_Ens_Koraz says:
*XO*: We cannot get a lock on you commander please lower your defence shields and at least give us a chance up here please

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
@ ::feels down her side, trying to locate her tricorder, coughs again, the dust and rubble everywhere in the pitch darkness, hears someone shout:: CEO: Who's that?

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
CO: The torpedo seems to have done its primary function. The riots have stopped for the moment.

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
@::looks around in the pitch dark, thinking he just heard something but the ringing in his ears is disorienting:: All: HELLO?

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
::in a lower voice:: SO: Maybe they do know what they are doing. Maybe you can take science 2 in the back and help me and OPS keep sensors and transporters running?

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
TO: Ensign, prepare a low yeald phaser burst to clear that rubble.

Host SMurf says:
<Romulans> COM: CO: The riots have ceased. Our work is done. Please continue with your mission.

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
@ *TO*: Koraz? ::coughs:: Stand by... CEO: Adalberto. Stop yelling. ::picks herself up::

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
*XO*: A'an to Kesh, were going to try to clear that rubble off of you and pull you out.

TO_Ens_Koraz says:
::Hears the XO and stands by to transport::

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
@ CEO: Anything we can do to help from down here? ::opens her tricorder, shedding a bit of light on the scene around them::

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
@::hears the XO whispering to him and faces her:: XO: WHAT?

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
TO: Prep another security team and beam them to the away teams location.

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
::listens to the Romulan and thinks he clearly never dealt with Starfleet before. Either that or he really wants to show who is in charge::

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
@::blinks his eyes, his head a bit muddy with the ringing and all::

Host SMurf says:
@ACTION: Some people from the area start moving over the rubble, trying to help survivors.

TO_Ens_Koraz says:
::Raises her eyebrow:: CO: Aye sir ::hits her comm badge and orders security to transporter room::

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
::notices the people moving on the surface, but no more signs of violence or weapons::

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
@ *CO*: Understood, Captain... ::shakes her head to clear the dizziness, and aims the light at the CEO and waves for him to make his way over to her::

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
@::shuts his eyes as the torch almost blinds him:: XO: Gah! Stop that!

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
TO: lets get that team down there and clear any civilians from the area, I font want any more casualties.

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
@ ::rolls her eyes and aims the tiny, meagre, weechy bit of light it produces at the ground instead::

TO_Ens_Koraz says:
:: Beams the security team down:: CO: Sir security team beamed down

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
CSO:  Have we picked up anything to shed some light on what’s really going on down there?

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
@::crawls over to her side:: XO: You alright, ma'am?

Host SMurf says:
@ACTION: The security team arrive on scene to see lots of people in the area and to learn the news that there are other survivors buried in rubble.

SO_LtJG_Sumner says:
CSO: We could try and crack their civilian comms; might get some Intel that way.

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
SO:  Lt., scan the local communications and see if we can get some idea of what’s going on.

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
@ ::Looks at the tricorder, scanning around them, coughs and takes a second to try and clear her head:: CEO: Eurgh... you tell me. ::hands the tricorder over:: CEO: These readings don't look so good. ::glances up at the CEO's face and frowns::

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
CO: we still haven't processed all the information we got since the planetary defences went down. But there seems to be a lot of damaged buildings. And in the area around the away team, it appears some sort of rescue operation is in place.

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
@::blinks his eyes, trying to focus on the readouts::

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
::nods at Sumner:: So/CO: excellent idea.

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
TO: As soon as they clear the civilians out of that area, burn that debris off, I want our people out ASAP.

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
@XO: Well....the good news is, that the forcefields collapsed over us and kept the rubble off.

SO_LtJG_Sumner says:
::finds an unused console and starts monitoring communications::

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
CO: They must have some local government we can talk to. Or were they all taken over by violent groups?

TO_Ens_Koraz says:
::looks at the CO rather worrying:: CO: Yes Sir.. Will do my best not to burn them as well

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
@ ::watches his eyes, noticing one pupil react to the tricorder's glow, while the other does not. Sighs:: *CO*: Sel... ::coughs and pauses, remembering herself:: Captain, any update? We could really use a beam out to Sickbay...

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
@::bangs the side of the tricorder as it flickers, then gets a clear reading again:: XO: The bad news is that it won't hold much longer..

Host SMurf says:
@<SEC_Jarak> *CO*: Away team to Captain A'an - I'm afraid moving civilians out of the area is not something that can be done quickly. There are survivors amongst the rubble that need to be rescued.

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
COM:  WARBIRD:  Romulan Commander, we are commencing rescue and recovery operations.  I would appreciate it if you didnt fire into them.  Kraken out.

SO_LtJG_Sumner says:
TO: If you can't handle it, Ensign, I'll give it a try.

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
@::sees some of his engineering crew coming to and orders them to seek out others and tend to them::

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
@ ::leans back, feeling dizzy:: CEO: How long to we have, do you think?

Host SMurf says:
ACTION: The Warbird moves away from the planet and cloaks.

TO_Ens_Koraz says:
::looks at the So rather amused:: SO: Hey I will give everything ago .. just warning of the possible outcome

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
@::grabs her upper arm:: XO: Who knows. ::grins, knowing all too well:: Are you sure you are alright?

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
::knows she is stating the obvious but thinks that is part of her job:: CO: The warbird has cloaked.

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
Transporter room 1:  Beam a dozen pattern enhancers to the surface and narrow the beam to see if we can pull out people and the injured civilians out, on the double people were running out of time.

Host SMurf says:
<TR1> *CO*: Acknowledged!

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
@ ::frowns, blinks at the CEO, suspicious of his tone:: CEO: I'm fine. Just a bit bashed. Nothing that can't be fixed :: sits back up and gently removes his hand from her arm:: CEO: How... long?

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
CSO:  Understood, keep scanning the area for traces of them.

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
SO: Did you manage to tap into their communications yet?

SO_LtJG_Sumner says:
CO/CSO: Nothing useful on comms, just emergency response. The torpedo seems to have put a stop to everything else.

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
::turns to the CO:: CO: Yes sir.

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
*XO*:  Were pulling out every trick we have to get you out of there, try to hold on a little longer.

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
@::closes the tricorder shut:: XO: A few minutes...half an hour. Depends on a lot of factors.

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
SO: They must be scared.

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
SO: Is there a main source of the communications? An official channel or a broadcast agency? If we could contact them, perhaps we could understand better what is the situation.

SO_LtJG_Sumner says:
CSO: Well yeah, their Empire is collapsing. The entire region is a massive powderkeg.

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
@ *CO*: Take your time, captain... we're just having a picnic down here... ::groans as she sits up straighter::

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
*CEO*: Were trying to enhance the signal to pull you all out of there chief, if you have any magic you can add, now would be the time.

SO_LtJG_Sumner says:
CSO: It's all just kind of makeshift at this point. It's possible that whatever central broadcasting facility they had was destroyed or otherwise disabled.

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
@ ::aims in the CEO's direction, not being able to see him in the dark now:: CEO: Tricorder... ::reaches her hand out::

TO_Ens_Koraz says:
::Is programming a few technical bits in to the console to make sure she doesn’t hit anything that should be hit::

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
@::taps his badge:: *CO*: Well....we could try to beam down some portable SIF field generators, might hold the rubble off of us a bit longer, sir. But I wouldn't recommend any attempts with the tractor beam, could destabilize the force field generators...they are already showing signs of fluctuation.

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
*SEC_Jarak*:  Kraken to Jarak, have you got those pattern enhancers up yet?

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
@::throws her the tricorder:: XO: Have a blast.

Host SMurf says:
@ACTION: The Security team start distributing the pattern enhancers.

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
::looks down and thinks "Uh Oh":: CO: Long range sensors show a small romulan fleet en route. We detect a few warbirds, some birds of prey and an assortment of other ships, including non military. ETa is 30 minutes.

Host SMurf says:
@ACTION: The Tricorder hits the XO on the nose.

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
@ ::gets a smack right in the face with a flying tricorder:: CEO: Damn, Tony! ::holds her nose:: CEO: Good aim, but bad idea...

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
@::loses his grin::

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
@XO: Sorry.

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
@XO: Bad lighting.

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
SO: How can we help a planet if we don't even understand who is who?

Host SMurf says:
@<Sec_Jarak> *CO*: Working on it, Sir.

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
::shakes her head and looks at the CO wondering what is on his mind::

SO_LtJG_Sumner says:
CSO: We probably can't, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't try.

TO_Ens_Koraz says:
::looks up:: Self: this could get interesting

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
*SEC_Jarak*:  We're about to have company Mr. Jarak, make it fast.

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
@ ::sneezes, tastes blood in the back of her throat and imagines the CEO down another pip::

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
CSO:  Let me know when they're in communication range.

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
CO: at present speed they will be in about 15 minutes.

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
SO: I absolutely agree. That is what we are here for. I just don't want to help the bad guys, the ones that caused all of that destruction.

SO_LtJG_Sumner says:
CSO/CO: Non-military vessels; might be a relief fleet.

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
SO/CO: It makes sense. They would need a military escort given the situation. But then why weren't we informed?

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
TO:  once we get our people and the wounded out of there, pull us back into standard orbit.  I don't want it to look like were the aggressor here.

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
CSO/SO:  Communications are one of the many things that are less than reliable in this area right now

TO_Ens_Koraz says:
CO: Aye sir ::Slaves ops controls::

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
@ ::finds the tricorder in the gloom and starts to scan, feeling her nose as she focusses on the tricorder and their surroundings:: CEO: Damn you.

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
::nods::

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
CSO/TO:  What’s the status on the rescue operation?

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
@::activates his wrist watch's light and takes a deep breath, then starts looking around for access to a forcefield control unit:: XO: Busy.

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
::checks the latest readings from the surface::

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
CO: I'm afraid it is still ongoing sire. I am reading several life signs in the rubble.

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
@::crawls under a shimmering forcefield, looking frantically for any controls or something that he could work with::

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
*Transporter Room 1*:  As soon as the pattern enhancers are in place, initiate the beamout.  Send the Away Team and the civlian casualties directly to Medical.

Host SMurf says:
@<SEC_Jarak> *CO*: Pattern enhancers in place, Sir!

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
@ CEO: Next time, don't aim at my head. ::holds her hands over her nose and wrenches to the left, popping it back into place with a loud, but muffled yell::

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
*TR1*:  Narrow the focus and beam them out.

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
@XO: I DIDN'T!. Self: You just have a big nose.

Host SMurf says:
ACTION: The transport takes place - the CEO, XO and several Jevorim civilians arrive in Sickbay.

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
SO: It is curious that the warbird cloaked shortly before we detected the small fleet. Are they hiding from them? Preparing an ambush?

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
::rematerializes on his stomach on a biobed::

SO_LtJG_Sumner says:
CSO: I suppose we'll find out soon.

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
::rematerialises, half-way through that yell::

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
CO: Our team arrived in sickbay along with Jerovim civilians. Perhaps they can tell us more about the situation.

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
::sits up and jumps off the biobed, and almost falls back down as his feet seem made out of pasta:: Self: Whoa..

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
SO:  Its a possibility I've considered.  Maybe one of the civilians we beamed up can shed some light on that. I'm heading to sick bay.  Lt. Sumner, you have the conn.  :Stand and walks into the TL.::

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
::steps forward and grabs the CEO to steady him:: CEO: Ok, easy...

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
::pushes her hands away:: XO: I'm fine.

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
*XO*:  I'm on my way to Sickbay, how's your team?

SO_LtJG_Sumner says:
::looks around for a moment, before slowly making his way to the Captain's chair:: Self: Hell yeah.

TO_Ens_Koraz says:
::Hears the CSO:: CO: Moving us away and into standard orbit

Host SMurf says:
<MO_Jalili> ::moves to the CEO:: CEO: Sit down, please. I'll be with you in a minute - you seem to be okay more or less.

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
MO: What's the problem? See to the civs! I'm fine, I need to get to the Bridge.

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
CEO: Back on the bed... ::holds the CEO in place, checking his pupils:: *CO*: All present, sir. Just have a few bumps and concussions to be seen to. ::eyes the CEO as she says "concussion"::

SO_LtJG_Sumner says:
CSO: Is the Romulan fleet in comm range?

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
::points to the biobed:: CEO: Sit...

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
::looks up at Sumner thinking the command structure just got a little awkward but plays along:: SO: They should be in a few minutes.

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
::falls back and sits on the bed as the XO suddenly starts checking him out:: XO: Aren't you wearing red, ma'am?

Host SMurf says:
<MO_Jalili> XO: You too. ::points to a bio bed::

SO_LtJG_Sumner says:
CSO: Hail them the moment they get in range. ::sits in the chair, fighting a monster grin::

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
::looks around, seeing DuPont's team in action, and pleased that they're so well-oiled so early on:: CEO: Shut up.

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
XO: Shutting up, ma'am.

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
SO: Are you sure you don't wait for the Captain to be back to hail the fleet?

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
::Steps off the TL and moves down the corridor to Sick Bay.::  XO/CEO: I'm glad your both alright.

TO_Ens_Koraz says:
::Listens to the chat between the SO and CSO::

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
::grabs a tricorder, and scans the CEO's head in silence::

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
::Suddenly gets a slight chill down his spine....Probably nothing.::

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
::blinks as the lights above him hurt his eyes:: CO: Sir, thank you. We're fine.

SO_LtJG_Sumner says:
CSO: If he gets back in time, yes, but we need to find out their intentions ASAP.

Host SMurf says:
<Fleet> COM: Kraken: We are Vendori. We no longer ally ourselves with the Romulan Star Empire. We claim the planet Jevorim as our own. Any who stand in our way will be destroyed.

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
::turns on hearing the CO enter and can't help but smile, pleased, despite everything to see him again:: CO: Captain. ::nods::

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
SO: I will let him know just the same. We are now in range. ::taps her badge::*CO*: Ix to Aan.

Host SMurf says:
<MO_Jalili> ::grabs the XO by the arm and leads her to the opposite bio-bed:: XO: I said, you too!

SO_LtJG_Sumner says:
::sighs:: CSO: Let him know we have a serious problem.

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
XO/CEO:  Good, because were about to have company.

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
::raises an eyebrow::

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
CO: Ready for duty, sir. ::stands up::

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
*CSO*:  A'an here.

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
::slaps a cortical stimulator on the CEO's forehead before she's dragged away herself:: MO: Fine! ::reluctantly climbs onto the biobed indicated::

Host SMurf says:
<MO_Jalili> ::sighs and face-palms:: Aloud: Silly senior officers. Always the same. XO/CEO: SIT DOWN!

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
*CO*: We are now in communications range of the Romulan fleet. Lt Sumner wants to contact them. He also reports we have a serious problem.

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
::sits back down and shuts up:: MO: Sorry.

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
*SO*:  Report Lieutenant.

SO_LtJG_Sumner says:
COM: Vendori: Vendori Fleet, this is the Federation Starship Kraken. We are here on a relief mission, and we ask that you suspend hostilities.

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
MO_Jalili:  Get them back on their feet asap doctor, were still in a hornet's nest.

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
CO: Who are we expecting? ::coughs::

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
::leans forward on the biobed::

SO_LtJG_Sumner says:
*CO*: Captain, the fleet is a separatist faction, here to claim the planet.

Host SMurf says:
<MO_Jalili> CO: We'll take however long it takes, Captain. You know how it is.

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
MO: If I could just get a hypo of something, I really am needed at my post...please.

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
::gives the CEO a look, to make sure he's behaving::

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
::Sighs and shakes his head.::  *SO*:  Of course....send them we're on a relief and rescue mission.

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
::fights the urge to stick his tongue out at the XO::

SO_LtJG_Sumner says:
*CO*: I did. They don't seem interested in talking.

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
SO: If that warbird decloaks, they will never believe us. We are right in the middle of a local feud.

Host SMurf says:
<MO_Jalili> ::caves in and just gives the CEO and XO a shot to let them go:: XO/CEO: When this is all done, report back here.

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
::senses the CEO's mood and makes a mental note to talk to the CO about him later::

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
::jumps off the biobed grinning:: MO: On my mother's life.

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
*SO*:  Were on our way.

Host SMurf says:
ACTION: The Vendori increase speed and enter the system.

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
XO/CEO:  Let's go

SO_LtJG_Sumner says:
CSO: Doesn't mean we shouldn't tell the truth anyway. The best we can do here is stand-by and try to help pick up the pieces. Do we have a complete ship count for the incoming fleet?

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
SO/TO: They have entered the system.

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
::teams up behind the Captain, keeping his distance from the XO::

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
::climbs off the biobed, feeling at least marginally better, and sharp again::

SO_LtJG_Sumner says:
::stands and looks to the TO:: TO: On your toes, Ensign. This could get hairy.

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
::jogs out of sickbay and to the TL.::  TL: Bridge.

TO_Ens_Koraz says:
CSO: Oh this should be fun then

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
All: There are six vessels total, that we can detect.

TO_Ens_Koraz says:
SO: Fleet have weapons ready shields raised and in attack formation.... do you want me to bring us to red alert

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
::falls into step beside the CO:: CO: What are we facing, Sel'?

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
::steps inside the Turbolift::

SO_LtJG_Sumner says:
TO: Yeah, that's probably a good idea.

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
XO: A separatist fleet claiming the planet as their own.

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
::shakes his head, feeling the shot from the doctor taking effect::

TO_Ens_Koraz says:
::Raises the ships status to Red Alert and suddenly hears the klaxon going and smiles::

Host SMurf says:
ACTION: The Vendori fly in, unleashing an attack wave. Shields were raised just in time, but the ship rocks under the heavy fire. The CEO falls over in the turbolift.

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
*SO*:  Lieutenant, take us to red alert.

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
::falls over, grabbing the XO to keep upright::

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
::holds on to her console:: All: If they can't decide who is in charge, how can even know whether we are truly invited in their space or not?

TO_Ens_Koraz says:
::Checks for damage::

SO_LtJG_Sumner says:
TO/CSO: Oh hell no; let them know they're declaring war on the Federation.

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
::let's go grinning:: XO: Thank you ma'am.

TO_Ens_Koraz says:
SO: You want me to fire back?

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
SO: The channel is open, Lt.

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
::Steps out onto the bridge. :: TO:  Target the lead ship and open fire!  Engines and weapons!

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
::reacts, like a good doctor by holding the CEO up:: CEO: OK... Next time, some warning... ::gives the CO a look::

SO_LtJG_Sumner says:
COM: Vendori: Separatist fleet, you are committing and act of war against a Federation vessel; stand down!

TO_Ens_Koraz says:
SO: Shields down to  30%

SO_LtJG_Sumner says:
::steps away from the CO's chair::

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
::nods and runs over to this station, relieving the engineer there:: CO: Shields holding, weapons hot.

SO_LtJG_Sumner says:
<an>

TO_Ens_Koraz says:
::hears the CO targets the leads ships engines and weapons ad fires::

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
::attempts to reroute power to shields::

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
::wonders if it is an act of war given their are not a recognized form of government and the Kraken is in Romulan space::

Host CO_Cmdr_Aan says:
aFCO: Accelerate to attack speed, defence manoeuvres!  Put some distance between them and us, we need time to recover!

Host SMurf says:
ACTION: The Vendori fleet are fast, and quickly launch another attack. Kraken shields drop to 10% and warp drive goes offline. The Kraken hits two of the attackers, causing damage themselves.

XO_LtCmdr_Suder says:
::steps onto the bridge, and stands... no chair::

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
::is rocked in his seat:: CO: Warp engines off line! Attempting to bring them back online!

CSO_Ens_Ix says:
::does what she can to keep sensors going::

TO_Ens_Koraz says:
CO: Direct hit assessing damage of the other ships::

CEO_Lt_Adalberto says:
::dumps all emergency power to shields:. CO: Emergency power to shields, sir!
