CO Capt. MacAllister says:
::sitting in his chair on the bridge for a change::

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
::on the bridge, in the XO's chair, surprised that the CO is there::

CMO Lt. Powers says:
::in sickbay, perfecting his putting into a cup in the corner::

OPS Lt. Zen says:
::looks up from his console surprised the CO is there::

CTO Lt. Vendal says:
::Standing at his station on the bridge::

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
::looks around at all the surprised looks:: All: What?

OPS Lt. Zen says:
CO/XO: Sirs, I have a message for a Lieutenant Ro'Kar... Did they get the wrong place?

CMO Lt. Powers says:
::grunts in disappointment as the ball rolls inches past the cup::

FCO Lt. Numark says:
:: At flight, checking over the co-ordinates of  our destination ::

CNS Ens. Lennox says:
::sitting on the Bridge reading a PADD quietly::

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
::looks to Ro`Kar:: XO: You expecting a call?

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
::looks at the Captain, then at OPS:: CO: Um, no, Captain. My brother and mother both only communicate in the off hours

OPS Lt. Zen says:
::waits::

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
OPS: Is it verbal or written, Lieutenant?

OPS Lt. Zen says:
XO: Written, Sir.

FCO Lt. Numark says:
CO: Sir, we are approximately 12 minutes away from our destination.

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
CO: Captain, do you mind if I read this message, despite being at a heightened alert status?

OPS Lt. Zen says:
XO: Oh Sorry Lieutenant Romak, it must be a typo. I'll transfer it to your console now.

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
OPS: Thank you, Ensign.

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
XO: Go ahead, it must be important.

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
::nods and begins reading::

CMO Lt. Powers says:
::grunts in disappointment as the ball rolls inches past the cup to join his previous 5 attempts::

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
:: his eyes widen, jaw clenches as he mutters:: Aloud: Kenji what have you done now...

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
FCO: Take us out of warp when we get there. ::turns to the science console and finds it empty:: OPS: Start scanning for the distress call and see if you can get a positional fix on it.

Nurse says:
CMO: Umm... sir... isn't there some work we should be doing?

FCO Lt. Numark says:
CO: Aye Sir.

OPS Lt. Zen says:
CO: Aye Sir!

CTO Lt. Vendal says:
CO: Sir I have an Akira Class vessel trapped in the anomaly on my sensors

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
XO: Everything OK Lieutenant?

CTO Lt. Vendal says:
::Scans vessel for identity::

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
::goes pale and swallows:: CO: Um... ::swallows and sighs:: My brother... He overdosed on sleeping medication and alcohol last night... ::clears his throat::

CNS Ens. Lennox says:
::hears the words "overdose" and "sleeping pills" and looks up from her PADD:: XO: Lieutenant...?

CMO Lt. Powers says:
Nurse: I've given orders to all staff off duty to report to triage areas during red alerts, I've already checked on the supplies here and I've made sure we're all ready for an emergency situation. You could give sickbay a good cleaning but other than that I think we're pretty well prepared.

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
CO: He... ::takes another ragged sigh:: CNS: Yes, Counsellor?

FCO Lt. Numark says:
CO: We're now 3 minutes away from our destination Sir. :: reduces warp speed to warp 5::

CMO Lt. Powers says:
Self: This place is no fun without Dr. Karl.

Scene: New ETA is 4 minutes

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
CTO: That's a sure sign that Starfleet has too many Akiras when they keep finding anomalies to get stuck in... send the coordinates to flight.

CTO Lt. Vendal says:
::Forwards coordinates to FCO::

Nurse Marisa says:
CMO: Yes, Dr. Powers, we've cleaned everything like you said... however, if you'd like I'm sure I can arrange a relaxing sponge bath for you... ::winks at the CMO::

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
FCO: Bring us to a stop at a safe distance from the anomaly.

CTO Lt. Vendal says:
CO: I cannot get designation of the ship due to interference

FCO Lt. Numark says:
::receives coordinates from the CTO and looks at them as she mutters to herself :: CO: Aye Sir.

ACTION: The ship arrives in the sector, near to the ship and anomaly.

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
CTO: On screen.

CMO Lt. Powers says:
Nurse: Don't tempt me.

CTO Lt. Vendal says:
::Brings up image on screen::

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
::sends the message to his personal console in the quarters to follow up on, closes it and looks back at the bridge, focussing::

CNS Ens. Lennox says:
XO: Would you like to leave the Bridge, sir?

FCO Lt. Numark says:
:: reduces warp to warp two as we enter the sector with the anomaly and the ship:: CO: We're entering the Nuvola Sector.

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
::looks at the CNS:: CNS: No. ::sets his jaw:: He is too far away for me to help him, he is in the best possible care there is and it is his problem. Now we have a mission to do. ::swallows hard::

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
FCO: Drop to Full impulse.

ACTION: As soon as the ship drops from warp, it shakes violently. Most people are thrown about. The FCOs console explodes sending her flying out her seat with burns. The COs chair breaks.

FCO Lt. Numark says:
CO: Aye Sir. :: drops to full impulse::

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
::finds himself on the floor:: All: DAMMIT!

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
::grips the chair, barely staying in his seat::

CSO LtCmdr. York says:
::falls over:: Self: Blimey!

CTO Lt. Vendal says:
::Stands and checks shield status and damage report::

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
All: Everyone OK?

FCO Lt. Numark says:
::lands against the wall looking down at her hands in a daze::

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
XO: Get this chair off me!

CMO Lt. Powers says:
::falls over just as he's about to hit the perfect putt::

CSO LtCmdr. York says:
::looks at the CO and shrugs, then checks his console:. All: Scanning the area!

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
::grabs the chair and pulls it off him::

ACTION: The CMOs golf balls roll around tripping over a few nurses, one bonking the CMO on the nose.

CMO Lt. Powers says:
::rubs his nose and helps a nurse up:: Nurse: I think we should expect some customers.

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
::stands up:: CSO: Report!

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
FCO: Lieutenant? Are you alright?

OPS Lt. Zen says:
*CMO*: Medical emergency on the bridge!

CSO LtCmdr. York says:
::scans the area, trying to allocate the power required from emergency systems:: CO: When I have something to report, aye sir !

CMO Lt. Powers says:
*OPS*: I thought there might be. I'll be right there.

Nurse Marisa says:
CMO: What was that?!

CTO Lt. Vendal says:
::begins a tactical scan of area to find any threats to the ship::

FCO Lt. Numark says:
XO: Aye Sir, just some burns I guess. :: Picks herself up and goes back to her exploded console :: Self: Hmm how to explain this one then... 

ACTION: The anomaly is sucking the ship into it. The other Akira class vessel is getting bigger and bigger on screen as it struggles in the apex.

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
*Engineering*: MacAllister to engineering, what the hell just happened?

CSO LtCmdr. York says:
CO: The readings are off the scale!

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
CSO: Can we do anything to counter the effect?

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
CSO: Expand the scale then!

CSO LtCmdr. York says:
::growls at the CO::

CMO Lt. Powers says:
Nurse: You're in charge here. Call more help in if you need it.::grabs a medkit and runs, stumbling towards the Turbolift::

CSO LtCmdr. York says:
XO: Try firing a particle beam at the event horizon?

CMO Lt. Powers says:
Turbolift: Bridge... quickly.

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
CSO: Worth a shot, what are the risks? :: looks at the CTO:: CTO: Is that possible?

ACTION: Another explosion rocks the ship.

CTO Lt. Vendal says:
XO: I believe a inverse graviton beam may be more effective

CSO LtCmdr. York says:
XO: I've been here a minute sir, I don't know the risks!! Try firing a particle beam to disrupt the gravitational forces!

FCO Lt. Numark says:
::Keeps an eye on the ship trying to see if we'll crash into it:: 

CMO Lt. Powers says:
::exits the Turbolift and falls over before looking around and making his way towards the FCO::

SCENE: The ship looms ever closer.

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
::finds himself back on the floor and decides it's probably safer to stay there:: CTO: Damage report!

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
::looks at the CO:: CO: Captain? Which one would you like to do?

ACEO Lt.Cmdr. Strauss says:
*CO*: Captain! Port side warp nacelle is gone!

CTO Lt. Vendal says:
CO: Ship is being pulled into the anomaly, inertial dampeners are off-line, other than that no damage to the ship

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
*ACEO*: What the hell do you mean gone?!?!

FCO Lt. Numark says:
CO: Um Sir.... 

CMO Lt. Powers says:
::pulls out his medical tricorder and scans the FCO before administering treatment for the FCO's burns::

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
CSO/CTO: Do something then?!

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
XO: Try the inverse gravitational pulse.

FCO Lt. Numark says:
CO: CAPTAIN!!! 

CTO Lt. Vendal says:
::Configures the deflector dish to send out inverse graviton pulse to break the pull of the anomaly:: CO/XO: Ready

CMO Lt. Powers says:
FCO: You're lucky. These don't look too bad.

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
CTO: You heard the Captain, do it.

CSO LtCmdr. York says:
::programs the deflector in a mad hurry and activates it:: CO: Done! Activating deflector!

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
FCO: What?!?!

CTO Lt. Vendal says:
::Sees CSO has activated changes and looks up:: Sending

CEO Lt.Cmdr. Strauss says:
*CO*: Gone, no longer here! Trying to contain the damage!!

FCO Lt. Numark says:
:: tries to wave the CMO away as he gives treatment for her burns:: CO: What's the name of this ship we are on?

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
FCO: Did you hit your head or something? We're on the Scimitar.

FCO Lt. Numark says:
CO: So why is it also down there ?

FCO Lt. Numark says:
:: points out of the view screen to the other ship ::

CMO Lt. Powers says:
::tries to ignore the view screen and the FCO's resistance to treatment:: FCO: If you don't let me treat you, you will be scarred.

ACTION: As the FCO points out the confusing news about a second Scimitar, the inverse gravitational pulse helps only to stabilise the rocking, but both ships cross the apex and the anomaly closes behind them. They find themselves flung into 'normal' space...

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
::looks at the FCO in disbelief and then at the view screen:: Self: Great... just great...

CSO LtCmdr. York says:
::takes a deep breath:: All: You're welcome!

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
CTO: Confirm the ship on our screen, Lieutenant

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
::Looks at the screen for a few seconds not sure of what to say, then snapped out of it:: CSO: Scan that vessel... and PLEASE tell me I'm not seeing things.

CNS Ens. Lennox says:
::grips her armrests as she is frozen in fear:: Aloud: Wh-wh-at...

FCO Lt. Numark says:
:: Looks back at the CO then back to the view screen then back to the CMO:: CMO: Sorry but that out there is slightly more important right now.

CSO LtCmdr. York says:
CO: Yes Captain, scanning the vessel

CMO Lt. Powers says:
::Glares at the CSO:: CSO: We're welcome!? Did you not think to scan the anomaly and warn us before we got here?

OPS Lt. Zen says:
CO: Incoming hail from the Scimitar for the Scimitar... I be confused.

CTO Lt. Vendal says:
::Scans the ship for identity::

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
OPS: On screen.

CMO Lt. Powers says:
FCO: You won't even notice I'm here. ::continues to treat the FCO::

CTO Lt. Vendal says:
CO: Verified sir it is the scimitar

CSO LtCmdr. York says:
CMO: There was nothing to see, doc! Now stuff it and go fix a burn or something. ::turns back to his scans::

SCO Capt. Idrani says:
COM: CO: Damn it! You just had to interfere! ::slams his hand down:: Wait... Ethan?

CTO Lt. Vendal says:
::Scans stars comparing to star charts to verify location::

SCENE: The bridge of the 2nd Scimitar looks very damaged.

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
::looks at the man on screen, thinking:: Self: That looks like that...man...Idrani

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
COM: SCO: Thalev? What the hell's going on?

CSO LtCmdr. York says:
Self: What the hell......

SCO Capt. Idrani says:
COM: CO: I don't get it... you're dead!

CNS Ens. Lennox says:
XO: I believe we have just met the previous XO, sir...

FCO Lt. Numark says:
Self: HUH? dead?

CMO Lt. Powers says:
CSO: Next time you have a burn, feel free not to come see me.

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
COM: SCO: And you're on the Tal-War, but I think that there appears to be two USS Scimitars here confirms that not all is as it seems.

SCO Capt. Idrani says:
COM: CO: Indeed! So NOW what do we do?

CSO LtCmdr. York says:
CMO: Stop whining, I'm busy.

CSO LtCmdr. York says:
XO: The other Scimitar has the correct prefix codes and signal carriers, but a few MHz off..like, shifted

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
::blinks as he spots the CTO... it is his brother Kenji... and the OPS officer looks familiar::

CTO Lt. Vendal says:
CO: Sir I have no explanation for this but we are still in the Nuvola Sector

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
COM: SCO: Well I think that... ::sees the SFCO and swallows the lump in his throat before continuing:: I think that we first need to establish whose universe we are in.

SFCO Lt. MacAllister says:
CO: That would be ours, Ethan... my god... you died... I saw it myself... this is weird.

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
CO: Captain, the CTO is my brother.... But he is meant to be assigned to the Morgan Le Fay Station and that Operations officer...

CSO LtCmdr. York says:
CTO: Check for notable battles in surrounding systems, they often leave radiation that will last for decades, might confirm with our records?

SCTO Cmdr. Ro'kar says:
XO: R..r...ren?

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
COM: SCO: I wasn't the only one... I think we need to talk in private, my ready room or yours?

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
SCTO: Kenji. What are you doing on the Scimitar?

CTO Lt. Vendal says:
::Checks local area for signs of battle or other radiations not present in known area::

SCO Capt. Idrani says:
COM: CO: Mine. See you soon. ::closes the comm::

SCTO Cmdr. Ro'kar says:
XO: What does it look like?! Chief Tactical Officer here ever since we lost Morgan Le Fay.

CMO Lt. Powers says:
::walks very close to the CSO and looks over his shoulder at his console:: Self: Hmm... interesting.

ACTION: The comms are closed as Idrani cuts it. All conversations are put on hold.

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
XO: You have the bridge... ::turns to OPS:: Prepare to transport me to the other Scimitar's Captain's ready room.

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
SCTO: I'm... ::curses as the screen cuts off:: CO: Yes, sir

CSO LtCmdr. York says:
CMO: I'm flattered, but as you know I'm taken. Now get out of my way. ::continues scanning the area for the anomaly::

OPS Lt. Zen says:
CO: Surely you can't be serious.

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
OPS: I am serious, and don't call me Shirley!

OPS Lt. Zen  says:
CO: You can't go alone, Sir!

CNS Ens. Lennox says:
::looks at the CMO and CSO about to duke it out right there on the Bridge in the middle of a crisis::

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
OPS: Keep an open transporter lock, I'm going.

CTO Lt. Vendal says:
::Steps over to the CMO:: CMO: I believe that everything has been handled here, perhaps it would be best for you to return to sick bay

CSO LtCmdr. York says:
CO: Oh Captain

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
CSO: What is it?

OPS Lt. Zen says:
CO: I'll inform transporter room 2. ::nods but is unhappy with the decision::

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
CTO: Lieutenant Vendal, please escort the Captain to the ship, and go armed

CSO LtCmdr. York says:
CO: Try not to eat or drink anything while over there, with alternate universes there is always a change of molecules being too much out of sync with each other for our digestive system to handle.

CMO Lt. Powers says:
::looks the CTO over and decides he probably can't take him and the CSO at the same time:: CTO: Perhaps you're right.

CTO Lt. Vendal says:
XO: Aye sir

CSO LtCmdr. York says:
::nods at the CTO thankfully::

CTO Lt. Vendal says:
::Follows the CO to transporter room::

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
CSO: So noted Commander. ::heads for the turbolift::

CMO Lt. Powers says:
XO: If there's no-one else here that needs my help I should return to sickbay, sir.

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
CO: Captain, is it possible to transport some of their crew to this ship?

CSO LtCmdr. York says:
Self: Again, the chances of that are astronomical ::said under his breath while chuckling::

CTO Lt. Vendal says:
::Hands CO a type I phaser to conceal:: CO: sir we have no idea what we may find

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
XO: Not yet... let's see what Idrani has to say for himself.

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
CO: If there is a chance, I would like to speak to my brother... and their Operations officer

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
::takes the phaser:: CTO: Stay alert but try not to draw attention to yourself.

CTO Lt. Vendal says:
CO: Yes sir

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
::rides the turbolift down the decks::

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
CMO: Thank you for your help, Doctor

CNS Ens. Lennox says:
::hears the CSO:: CSO: Sir, is it... REALLY dangerous for Capt. MacAllister to eat or drink while on the other ship?

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
CSO: Lieutenant, I want you to run as many scans as you can about this area of space, launch a probe, anything - we need to get out of here some how... with minimal disruption to this area of space

CSO LtCmdr. York says:
::almost lets out a laugh:: CNS: The differences between our string vibrations are less than half a hertz, I doubt it.....just.....I knew he didn't finish his breakfast and he always gets cranky on an empty stomach. ::chuckles::

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
FCO: Lieutenant Numark, please revise our star charts, see if there are any similarity between our space and this space

CSO LtCmdr. York says:
::clears his throat:: XO: Aye sir, of course. I'm not just sitting pretty.

CMO Lt. Powers says:
::heads to the Turbolift, fuming:: Turbolift: Sickbay

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
::arrives at the transporter room::

CNS Ens. Lennox says:
::rolls her eyes:: CSO: You're excited because you know that the Captain is going to be cranky... brilliant. ::sarcastic::

FCO Lt. Numark says:
XO: Aye Sir. :: finds a console to look over the star charts ::

CSO LtCmdr. York says:
CNS: Brilliant is what I am, thanks. ::turns back to his console to start programming a set of probes::

CSO LtCmdr. York says:
FCO: Flygirl, you might want to finish Vendal's job and use our database and scan for known spatial disturbances due to major fire fights and battles that have left traffic lines changed, they might not coincide with our charts and then we know whose universe we are in

CMO Lt. Powers says:
::exits the Turbolift:: Nurse: If the CSO ever comes in here, you're to give him every painful exam possible. Pass that order on to all the medical staff.

CO Capt. MacAllister says:
::steps on to the pad:: Transporter Chief: Energise.

Nurse Marisa says:
CMO: Aye, sir... but... what has he done to you?

Nurse Marisa says:
CMO: He's a rather nice man... a little nerdy, but all science types are, but... oh, he's kind of cute too...

FCO Lt. Numark says:
CSO: Thanks. :: heads over to tactical and finishes the scans::

CMO Lt. Powers says:
Nurse: When was your last physical?

ACTION: The CO and CTO de-materialises.

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
::sits back in his chair and thinks:: Self: What kind of mess have we got into this time? And why is Kenji here?

CSO LtCmdr. York says:
XO: I have sent out four probes, all gathering stellar radiation, dust particles, warp trails and bloody micro-organisms

Nurse Marisa says:
 ::giggles:: CMO: Me, sir?

XO Lt. Ro'kar says:
::pales as he realizes who the Operations officer:: Aloud: Del-Mar... that bastard
