Previously on the USS Pandora:

The crew of the Pandora came to the aid of the transiting Deep Space 102, which they found under attack by forces unknown. Though the unknown attackers have fled the area, the fleet of vessels that came to her defense is still in the area and on yellow alert because of it.

Deep Space 102 at this point is a total loss. Starfleet is scrambling resources to replace her with a more heavily armed station because of its position on the very edge of Federation space. Staff on the Pandora is getting back to routine.

Let us see what will happen next.

OPS_Lt_Qui says:
:: enters the Briefing Room, sees the people there and decides to stand. Goes over to Trix ::
OPS_Lt_Qui says:
Trix: Seat taken? :: Points at sill next to her ::
DO_LtJG_Trix says:
OPS: Lieutenant, good to see you.
SC_Capt_Marek says:
::enters the turbolift with the CMO and the MO::
CNS_Ens_CTriel says:
::Enters the room, looks around and wonders where she should sit. Decides to wait and see what seats are left before sitting::
EO_Lt_Jankara says:
::enters the Briefing Room::
XO_Cmdr_Gaeb says:
:: sits in his seat, waiting for Captain Adams to start the meeting ::
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: locates a seat finally ::
OPS_Lt_Qui says:
:: Sits next to Trix :: DO: And you.
CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
::watches as everyone comes in::
MO_Ens_Williams says:
::Stays quiet as she follows everyone::
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
All: Okay, we need to figure all this out, now that we've had a chance to make sure the crew of the Station is secure.... 
XO: Your thoughts?
SC_Capt_Marek says:
::enters the Briefing Room and takes his seat::
MO_Ens_Williams says:
::Follows into the Briefing Room and finds a comfy wall to lean against::
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
::notes the Station Commander's arrival::
SC_Capt_Marek says:
::the usual stiff expression on his face barely hides his concerns::
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: taps on her PADD to record the meeting ::
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
XO: Hold for a minute Commander
SC: Commander, what's the situation with DS-102? Everyone accounted for?
CNS_Ens_CTriel says:
::Moves to stand next to the far wall and listens::
CMO_Lt_Marisol says:
::leaves the lift and walks the short distance to the Briefing Room::
SC_Capt_Marek says:
CO: Indeed, fortunately there were no fatalities among the DS-102 crew. However, the Station is a total loss... except from some supplies, weapons and spare parts stored in the still standing storage bays.
XO_Cmdr_Gaeb says:
CO: ::adds to SC’s comment:: We have reports of casualties but there seem to be no fatalities
SC_Capt_Marek says:
CO: Also, the Main Computer was severely damaged during the attack, and it is impossible to salvage it.
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
XO/SC: Considering life is the more important issue, I suppose that's somewhat good news lining the bad
DO_LtJG_Trix says:
SC: Pardon me, Captain, but what about the Scorpius computer? Or the backups? I know it's not the most important, but that core we recovered on the Scorpius' last mission?
OPS_Lt_Qui says:
:: Smiles to hear there was no loss of life ::
CNS_Ens_CTriel says:
::takes notes as her ears twitch a little, so she will have some information when talking to her patients::
SC_Capt_Marek says:
DO: Let me check on the reports... ::taps on his PADD::
DO_LtJG_Trix says:
SC: Thank you Captain. It's not much, but we might be able to find something useful in there if we can figure it out some.
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
::looks to OPS next:: 
OPS: Notify the various departments to establish a system of recovering what we can from the Station. Provisions are the first priority, then weapons, medical supplies, parts, etc...
OPS_Lt_Qui says:
:: Nods at the CO :: CO: Aye sir
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
DO: Have you been able to diagnose any of the sensor information? This ship is equipped with the finest there is, so if anyone can get anything, we can..... So please, tell me what we have so far?
SC_Capt_Marek says:
DO: The USS Scorpius Computer cores are somewhat retrievable, an estimate of 65%. The alien Database was not damaged and we can recover it. Still we need to find out how can use that information.
XO_Cmdr_Gaeb says:
CO: What would be your priority sir, salvaging the station or pursuing the attackers?
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
XO: for now, we need to have what we need since the Station won't be where we're going.... no point in going if we end up dead in the water. I have confidence we'll pick up their trail soon enough. They'll be there waiting when we get there.
CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
XO/CO: Any information concerning the attackers would be logical. Safer to know what’s ahead. I have a probe prepared to track them.
DO_LtJG_Trix says:
CO: Scans weren't able to penetrate the ships much, something in the ship's shell. I'd bet a bit of time with some of the ship remains and we'd be able to figure it out well enough. Big question is who this was, and for that, I don't have a solid answer.
DO_LtJG_Trix says:
CO: Nothing exactly like it on file, although it's possible we've met the race before in different ship classes.
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
DO: Okay, if we can't penetrate their hulls, that should tell us something about what they're made of and maybe a bit of their capabilities
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
CTO: I need you to focus on their weapons and shielding. What do we know about what they were firing? How were they fending us off?
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: continues to record the meeting ::
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
FCO: Can you see any pattern in how they were maneuvering? And about where they were headed after the fight?
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
CNS: Were you able to gather anything while all this was going on? Any thoughts or readings from the attackers?
CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
CO: All I can discern is that their weapons are plasma-based disruptors and plasma torpedo. Nothing I have ever seen.
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
EO: ::noting neither the CEO nor the CNS was not in the room:: Can you make anything out about their ships or power sources or even their weapons or shielding?
CNS_Ens_CTriel says:
::Looks up from her PADD:: CO: I haven't been able to get too much information from the attacks, but I will go over the ships recordings. Maybe I can pick up some clues from them
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
SCD: Your thoughts as well Commander?
CNS_Ens_CTriel says:
CO: But as soon as I can get any information I will let you know
CNS_Ens_CTriel says:
::slight pause then adds:: CO: Sir
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
CNS: So, you didn't "sense" anything from them?
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
CO: As far as their maneuvering patterns, they seemed focused on taking on the generators and because of their smaller size, seemed to be build more for speed. Their course away has them headed for the Galactic Core as far as I can tell.
EO_Lt_Jankara says:
::makes a few notes from what the others are saying for Silek to read through::
CNS_Ens_CTriel says:
CO: Nothing sensed from them as of yet, sir.
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
FCO: How about the complexity of their maneuvers? Straight forward or complex?
MO_Ens_Williams says:
::Keeps listening quietly::
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
CO: Focused moves I would say Captain,
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
FCO/CTO: See what the two of you can put together on them
SC_Capt_Marek says:
CO/All:: I think this attack was only intended to provoke us and make us pursue them towards their own region, with unknown motives.
CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
::looks to the FCO:: CO: Yes Sir
DO_LtJG_Trix says:
CO/ SC: Sir, I've been thinking about that. What if the Federation wasn't the target?
EO_Lt_Jankara says:
Self: Like leading a mouse to the mousetrap.
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: makes a few side notes for later reference ::
SC_Capt_Marek says:
DO: Please elaborate your last statement
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
DO: Yes, please elaborate…
DO_LtJG_Trix says:
CO/ SC: Three months ago nearly three thousand refugees from the area these attackers came from were delivered by the Scorpius to the station. Apparently the last of their race after a brutal war. What if they were the target? Someone wants to finish the war?
DO_LtJG_Trix says:
CO/ SC: We did what Starfleet does, helped those in desperation. But what if the ch'Tan weren't the victims here?
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
DO: Interesting....... continue to work on that angle for now... pull what you need from those huge sensors up there  ::points into the air towards the Sensor Module::
DO_LtJG_Trix says:
CO: Aye Captain. That and the Communication receivers.
Host SCD_LtCmdr_Walker says:
DO: I read that file. I don't see enough evidence to make guesses either way, but I think there is more here than meets the eye.
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
ALL: A day and a half after we lose a major facility. We were fortunate this time in that we didn't lose anyone. Let’s see if we can come up with more than we have so far....
EO_Lt_Jankara says:
All: With respect, it wouldn't take much to know there was no way that 3,000 refugees were still on the station. Did they try to tap into the station's computers to see where the refugees are?
DO_LtJG_Trix says:
SCD: I'm just looking to make sure we ask the wrong questions, Commander.
EO: Perhaps they thought it was our only station...if my idea has any merit. So far it's untested at best.
SC_Capt_Marek says:
EO: That is still to be determined. Main Computer is totally destroyed so it will be tricky to determine if that happened
Host SCD_LtCmdr_Walker says:
DO: True, but I think you're on the right track. Let me know if there is anything you need, and I'll sign off on it.
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
CMO/MO: Based on everything we still don't seem to know, see if you two can speculate on the attackers. We know the size of their ships and have seen some of their capabilities. See if that indicates anything. Work with the Counselor to come up with some sort of non-physical ideas.
MO_Ens_Williams says:
::Nods silently::
EO_Lt_Jankara says:
SC: Anyone working around the computer core may have noticed something. Even if they thought it was a glitch, it may answer questions. ::shrugs::
CMO_Lt_Marisol says:
::nods:: CO: Yes, Captain.
CNS_Ens_CTriel says:
::Nods at the CMO and MO::
SC_Capt_Marek says:
EO: ::nods:: Of course... still many inquiries are expecting the personnel once their wound are attended. And I am known for my severity.
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
All: I need all of your reports as soon as you can.... as I said, it's been a day and a half. Have we gotten what we can from the Station? If we haven't, we need that done within 24 hours. We then need to be out of here and on our way.
EO_Lt_Jankara says:
SC: I'd be happy to help shuffle through any reports. With my Operations and Engineering background, I may see something.
SC_Capt_Marek says:
EO: Any help will be very appreciated. Thanks. ::nods::
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
CO: Resume course towards the Galactic Core? Will any of the other Federations ships be coming as well?
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
FCO: Yes, we still need to get to our assigned location. No, we’ll be on our own. Thus the importance of getting our supplies now. 
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
All: Before you all leave here, one thing we have not talked about.... the debris from their ships?
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
All: Have we brought any of it aboard, or analyzed it?
Host SCD_LtCmdr_Walker says:
CO: Yes Sir, we have. I have a science team going over it, and am expecting their analysis in a few hours.
DO_LtJG_Trix says:
SCD/ CO: If I may suggest, Engineering and Tactical may have something to add on the analysis. Different ways of looking at information from different departments.
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
SCD: Excellent, but light a candle under them... We need everything we can get
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
ALL: Everyone. Good work, but we need to do better, so with that, please get to work. And work fast.
Host SCD_LtCmdr_Walker says:
CO: Aye, Sir, I will do that immediately. ::sends text message with PADD to Science team examining wreckage::
CMO_Lt_Marisol says:
::glances from the CNS to the MO:: MO/CNS: Shall we get started ladies?
CMO_Lt_Marisol says:
::nods:: CO: Understood, Captain.
MO_Ens_Williams says:
::Nods and doesn't smile:: CMO/CNS: I'm ready.
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
XO/SC/SCD/DO: Please remain behind for a few minutes
OPS_Lt_Qui says:
:: Slides off the sill and turns to the DO :: DO: See ya around. :: Moves towards the door ::
Host SCD_LtCmdr_Walker says:
::looks around at the XO, SC, and DO:: CO: Aye sir.
DO_LtJG_Trix says:
OPS: Yes, I have a few small requests when we're done here, Lieutenant. Thanks.
EO_Lt_Jankara says:
::transfers her Engineering report to the Ready Room for the CO to read at a later time::
CNS_Ens_CTriel says:
::Nods:: CMO/MO: I'm ready, too ::starts to head out:: CMO: Your office or mine?
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: closes her PADD and stands :: CTO: I'll have to get back to you on the report for the Captain.
EO_Lt_Jankara says:
::heads out::
DO_LtJG_Trix says:
CO: Yes Captain. ::Tries to not feel small with all the pips in the room.::
OPS_Lt_Qui says:
DO: See me on the Bridge. :: Exits the Briefing Room ::
MO_Ens_Williams says:
::Follows the CNS and CMO::
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: turns and heads out of the Briefing Room ::
CTO_Lt_Sergon says:
FCO: After the meeting we can go over our notes.
CMO_Lt_Marisol says:
CNS: I would suggest your office or one of the labs. Sickbay is a little crowded at the moment.
CNS_Ens_CTriel says:
CMO: My office then ::grins::
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: returns to the flight station and confers with Ensign Flight ::
EO_Lt_Jankara says:
::steps into the turbolift and heads back to work::
CNS_Ens_CTriel says:
::Walks with the CMO and MO to the lift::
OPS_Lt_Qui says:
:: Enters the Bridge and relieves Johnson at OPS ::
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
XO/SC/SCD/DO: Gentlemen, I need to fill you in on the subtext of our primary mission
OPS_Lt_Qui says:
:: Begins to compose the message the CO wants sent out ::
CMO_Lt_Marisol says:
MO/CNS: This should be a challenging exercise.
Host SCD_LtCmdr_Walker says:
CO: Sir? ::listens attentively::
EO_Lt_Jankara says:
::leaves the lift and heads into Engineering::
SC_Capt_Marek says:
::puts his PADD down on the table:: CO: I am all ears...
DO_LtJG_Trix says:
CO: Yes sir. And the fact that this Lieutenant is still here among all these pips, I can guess why I think.
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
XO/SC/SCD/DO: We have reports on a new aggressor species identified as the th'Alcair
CNS_Ens_CTriel says:
CMO/MO: It will be interesting to say the least
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
XO/SC/SCD/DO: They are apparently a saurian predatory race and we know little about them
DO_LtJG_Trix says:
::Taps PADD and brings up notes.::
CNS_Ens_CTriel says:
::exits lift and walks with the CMO and MO to her office and indicates the small grouping of chairs by a small coffee table:: CMO/MO: Anything to drink?
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
XO/SC/SCD/DO: They have weapons that are capable of extreme damage in a single shot. Our secondary mission is to find out everything we can about them, determine if they are a threat to the Federation, and if necessary, neutralize the threat.
MO_Ens_Williams says:
::Sits down in one of the chairs and just waves.:: CNS: I'm good thank you,
Host SCD_LtCmdr_Walker says:
CO: If this attack can be connected with them, I would say that puts them in the threat category, sir.
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
XO/SC/SCD/DO: Of course we should try diplomacy first, but if that doesn't work......
EO_Lt_Jankara says:
::writes up a report of the meeting for Silek then gets to work on the Captain's request::
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
SCD: You are exactly correct.
SC_Capt_Marek says:
CO/XO/SCD/DO: Well, after all war is diplomacy carried out by other means...
DO_LtJG_Trix says:
SCD: That is uncertain, Commander. These attackers, they didn't have the same main weapon, and ships were different. But for the record, if an unknown alien saw a Defiant class and a Danube Class in battle, would they recognize common ancestry?
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
SC: Unfortunately, that is also correct
CNS_Ens_CTriel says:
MO: Okay. So.....::sits down:: How to get the information the Captain wants. I've already called up the ship’s recordings of the attack so I guess we can start there
SC_Capt_Marek says:
CO: ::nods::
Host SCD_LtCmdr_Walker says:
DO: That's what I think. We may be looking at different classes of ship with different weaponry and strategy. Bottom line is that we need more Intel, Lieutenant.
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
::points to the Sensor Module:: All: And supposedly, we've the perfect tool for that job.
CNS_Ens_CTriel says:
::grabs a PADD from the table and enters a command:: CMO/MO: Between the three of us we should be able to come up with something
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
All: Gentlemen, we've our work cut out for us... Let's get to it.
DO_LtJG_Trix says:
SCD: Yes Sir. Honestly I would prefer if they were the same attacker. Otherwise we've got two hostiles before we even said hi.
SC_Capt_Marek says:
All: And a enormous work to do if I may add. ::stands up::
Host SCD_LtCmdr_Walker says:
CO: Aye, aye, sir.
DO_LtJG_Trix says:
All: I'll get to work looking for some answers, or at least some better questions, Sirs.
Host SCD_LtCmdr_Walker says:
DO: Yes, not something I'm enthused about either. ::frowns and looks at the table for a moment::
Host CO_Capt_Adams says:
::acknowledges the officers, heads back out to the Bridge, and moves on towards his Ready Room::
Host SCD_LtCmdr_Walker says:
