Last time on the Scimitar...

The Scimitar was a few hours out of Andor when they were contacted by Khethiwe Amuz, partner of Thalev Idrani. She insisted on talking to the XO, informing them that Thalev had left in a craft to pursue his missing parents.It was revealed that he possessed an ancient Andorian artifact and the Admiral had denied him permission to leave to investigate the disappearance of his parents. Meanwhile, the CO and CEO discussed various issues before returning to the Bridge. The crew beamed Amuz aboard and followed the trail of the craft Idrani had used.

Contacting the ship, when they found it, Idrani gave a cryptic message about something happening 'again'. In a flash his ship disappeared, leaving only a loose hull plate.
<<<<<<<<<<Resume Mission -  Pinnacle – Part 3>>>>>>>>>>

CO Capt. Rome says:
::annoyingly paces the Bridge:: FCO: What's our ETA?

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
::is trying to scan for Idrani's vessel::

CO Capt. Rome says:
XO: What the hell just happened?

CEO Ens. Peake says:
::Looking over the blueprints of Idrani's vessel::

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
CO: It seems that the Commander's vessel disappeared, I'm scaning for subspace disortions now

FCO Ens. Uax says:
CO: 5 minutes.. Lets hope the engines last that long.

CO Capt. Rome says:
FCO: They will.

CO Capt. Rome says:
CEO: Right ?

CO Capt. Rome says:
Self: Right.

CO Capt. Rome says:
::sits down::

CO Capt. Rome says:
XO: Well it can't just disappear!....well it can....happened to me once.....dimensional shift. Not very pleasant.....did you check for that?

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
CO: Yes sir... there is nothing where the ship was, no radiation, no space dust, no solar energy and no post-it notes on the fridge, sir

CEO Ens. Peake says:
::Also trying to preserve the engines while going at such high speeds::

CO Capt. Rome says:
XO: Any signs of radiation besides the normal stuff? You know.....the science stuff.

CO Capt. Rome says:
XO: Chronotons!

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
CO: Scanning for chronotons... ::drums his fingers on the console::

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
CO:Maybe we are scanning in the wrong place?

FCO Ens. Uax says:
How could we be scanning in the wrong place..

CO Capt. Rome says:
XO: Expand the search to a 3 kilometer radius, then another 3. Maximum scans.

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
CEO: Ensign, I need more power and don't give me some lame Scottish accented reply

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
CO/FCO: Well, what if they are not at his point of disappearance... that they are, you know, perhaps on his back course

CO Capt. Rome says:
::stands back up:: FCO: Get a tractor lock on all the wreckage you can find once we drop out of warp.

CEO Ens. Peake says:
XO: Umm... alright? ::No scottish accent:: I'm giving it all I can.

FCO Ens. Uax says:
CO: Understood..

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
CO: Idrani did say that he was going back...

CO Capt. Rome says:
XO: Back to where? You have the records from my dimensional holiday, see if the scans taken from the ship I brought back may correlate with any scans of this area.

ACTION: Scimitar arrives at the coordinates...a little more than 5 minutes that was estimated.

CO Capt. Rome says:
Amuz: Ensign Amuz, do you know anything about this?

Khethiwe Amuz says:
CO: Nothing, Captain

FCO Ens. Uax says:
:: scanning for any signs of anything to get a tractor lock onto :: 

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
CO: Yes, Captain ::goes through the records::

CO Capt. Rome says:
::looks over at her sitting in the counselor's seat:: Amuz: So what CAN you bring to the table? You wanted to assist, said you could help. Help goddamit.

CO Capt. Rome says:
FCO: Scan for cloaked vessels.

FCO Ens. Uax says:
:: notices hull plating and locks onto that :: CO: I've got some hull plating 

FCO Ens. Uax says:
CO: Understood :: scanning for cloaked vessels :: 

CO Capt. Rome says:
FCO: Tractor it into cargobay 2.

Khethiwe Amuz says:
::shoots him a glare:: CO: Captain, I was going to offer my expertise as a CTO, but you didn't trust me enough. So rigt now I am sitting here, looking pretty and waiting for an opportunity to give you an insight further into Commander Idrani's psyche

CO Capt. Rome says:
CEO: Engineer Peake, start running scans on the hull plating as soon as it's onboard.

FCO Ens. Uax says:
CO: Way ahead of you there. Already in the cargobay.. 

CO Capt. Rome says:
Amuz: Then speak, seems I have nothing else to do but wait.

CEO Ens. Peake says:
CO: That's what I was about to say, sir. ::Runs scans on the piece of hull::

CO Capt. Rome says:
::looks at Peake:: CEO: Reroute power to internal sensors, if that's not enough go down there and personally inspect it. I want some answers.

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
All: I am picking up chronotons 20 000 km away, they corelate with Idrani's course. Tere is no ion trail before the chronotons

Cargo Bay Steward says:
*CO*: Sir, that junk you just brought in is dirtying my clean floors!

CO Capt. Rome says:
::nods to Ren:: XO: Take us there.

CO Capt. Rome says:
XO: But keep a safe distance.....

CEO Ens. Peake says:
CO: On it.

CO Capt. Rome says:
::taps his badge:: *Steward*: Who is this? Get off this channel at once.

Khethiwe Amuz says:
CO: What do you want me say? That he dislikes injustice, that he would not put another person in jeopardy. He would not go off on his own without sound reason. That he has no known history of mental instability?

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
::sends the coordinates to the FCO:: CO: Aye, Captain

CO Capt. Rome says:
::laughs:: Amuz: Then you clearly don't know the man.

CO Capt. Rome says:
FCO: Full impulse.

Steward says:
*CO*: Can't we move the hull plate? It's not that big but its so rusty it's getting dirt everywhere.

FCO Ens. Uax says:
CO: Understood. Full impulse.. 

Khethiwe Amuz says:
CO: No, Captain, with all due respect, then you do not know the Thalev I know

CEO Ens. Peake says:
CO: Sir, I'd like to go down to the cargo bay and have a closer look.

CO Capt. Rome says:
*Steward*: I am sending Engineer Peake to take a look...you take your orders from 
him! Rome OUT !

CO Capt. Rome says:
CEO: Go.

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
CEO: Find out why it is rusting...

CO Capt. Rome says:
XO: Make a mention to have that Steward fired.

CO Capt. Rome says:
Amuz: I shared his mind, I know the man.

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
CO: Surely you cannot be serious, Captain

CO Capt. Rome says:
Amuz: He may be honorable, but he is also stupid. He doesn't think things through. Impulsive.

CO Capt. Rome says:
XO: I am, and don't call me Shirley.

CEO Ens. Peake says:
:: Walks to the Turbolift and takes it down to cargobay 2 ::

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
CO: I didn't call you Shirley, sir ::is confused:: This is no time to make jokes

CO Capt. Rome says:
FCO: Keep us at a safe distance from the chronoton signature....

CO Capt. Rome says:
XO: There's always time for jokes, Commander. ::looks dead serious::

FCO Ens. Uax says:
CO: Understood keeping us about 10000 K from it.

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
CO: Understood. ::writes a note for the CO's yeoman to 'fire' the Steward ::

CO Capt. Rome says:
FCO: Launch a probe, mark VI. Full subspace scanning.

FCO Ens. Uax says:
:: taps a few buttons and launches the prob :: Prob away :: 

CO Capt. Rome says:
::taps his badge:: *Engineering*: Engineering, make sure the engines are ready for warp flight again.

ACTION: Probe released.

CEO Ens. Peake says:
:: Reaches the Cargobay and steps out of the turbolift ::

SO Smith says:
CEO: Chief, you've got to see this!

CEO Ens. Peake says:
SO: What is it?

CO Capt. Rome says:
XO: Telemetry from the probe ?

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
CO: Still running the filters through it, standby

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
CO: Definately chronoton particles, half seem to be older than others

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
CO: Perhaps he has done this disappearing act more than once?

SO Smith says:
::gestures to the CEO to follow:: CEO: Well first of all, it's laced with chronoton particles. And this... ::points:: looks like damage but not from any phaser. Some high speed projectile has hit this.

CO Capt. Rome says:
XO: He did say 'again'.

CO Capt. Rome says:
XO: So what....time displacement? The probe should tell us more.

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
CO: Yes... I believe so...

CO Capt. Rome says:
FCO: Keep a close look out for chronoton particles colliding with our deflector, I don't want that stuff near this ship.

CO Capt. Rome says:
::look at his chrono, then taps his badge:: *CEO*: Engineer Peake, report!

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
::notices Amuz looking like she is about to fall asleep:: Amuz: Ensign Amuz, come with me please - I have a cup of coffee with your name on it

CEO Ens. Peake says:
SO: What? Do you have any ideas on what hit it? :: Crouches down to have a look at the hull piece ::

Khethiwe Amuz says:
::looks up and clears her throat:: XO: I am fine,  sir.

SO Smith says:
CEO: As I said, a high speed projectile. Like a bullet maybe

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
::winks:: Amuz: Just trust me ::motions to the door and looks at the CO:: CO: I will be right back, sir

CEO Ens. Peake says:
*CO*: Sir, apart from the choronoton we have damage on it, and it's not from phaser fire. Possibly a projectile, simmilar to bullet damage.

CO Capt. Rome says:
::nods::

Khethiwe Amuz says:
::nods and gets up out of her seat, following the XO::

CO Capt. Rome says:
*CEO*: Bullet? What the hell is he mixed up in....can you gather any more information from the chronoton radiation? Temporal mechanics was never my strong suit.

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
:: exits with Amuz, whispering :: Amuz: I want you to help look at the scans, just for a second opinion. I can get you set up at the secondary science station

ACTION: At the coordinates being investigated, there is a huge surge. A bolt of thunder-like energy flies towards the Scimitar, destroying the probe in it's path. Idrani's ship reappears.

CO Capt. Rome says:
::almost jumps out of his seat::

CO Capt. Rome says:
Self: Blimey.

FCO Ens. Uax says:
:: tips back out of her chair :: ALL: What the... 

CO Capt. Rome says:
::sits back down and opens a comm channel:: COMM: Idrani: Welcome back Smurf. This is Jonathan. Are you in one piece? All antenneas still attached?

CEO Ens. Peake says:
*CO*: Sir, I know this sounds silly but as I was leaving DS9 there was a person talking about "prophets".

CO Capt. Rome says:
FCO: Get a tractor lock on that vessel....then back us away, 5.000 kilometers.

FCO Ens. Uax says:
:: gets back into her chair :: 

ACTION: The bolt hits the Scimitar. All consoles on the bridge blow out, sending crew sprawling across the deck, the FCO included. Everyone touching the deck is subjected to a large electrocution.

ACTION: Power goes down in a lot of ship sections including the Cargo Bay, bridge and the turbolift the XO and Amuz is in.

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
Aloud: Huh? What is going on here? ::glances around as the power fails::

Khethiwe Amuz says:
XO: I'll attempt to find the override ::starts feeling around::

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
*Bridge*: Commander Ro'kar to the Bridge, respond

CO Capt. Rome says:
::stands up, his whole body sore::

CO Capt. Rome says:
::Takes his jacket off and kneels down next to Stephanie and puts it under her head:: FCO: Ensign, do you hear me?

FCO Ens. Uax says:
:: barely conscious she nods softly :: 

CO Capt. Rome says:
*Sickay*: Sickbay, this is the Captain. Medical emergency.

CO Capt. Rome says:
FCO: Lay still, let me get you something for the pain.

CEO Ens. Peake says:
Aloud: What was that?! :: Looks around in the darkness ::

ACTION: Comms are down

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
::mutters:: Amuz: No response. Any luck with the override?

CO Capt. Rome says:
::moves slowly over to the console and pulls open the safety hatch underneat to retrieve a health kit::

CO Capt. Rome says:
All: Everyone alright?

SO Smith says:
CEO: I have no clue but I'm glad that the cargo bay door had closed because it looks like power is down even to the forcefields.

CO Capt. Rome says:
Computer: computer, emergency power to the Bridge!

CO Capt. Rome says:
::opens the kit and retrieves a stimulus shot and mixes it with a painkiller, then injects the FCO::

ACTION: Low level lights come on across the ship.

Khethiwe Amuz says:
XO: Yes, sir... hold on....grunts and pulls the lever, opening the doors::

CEO Ens. Peake says:
SO: Great, a nightlite. Aloud: Is anyone hurt?!

CO Capt. Rome says:
FCO: There, just lay still.

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
::holds the doors open:: Amuz: Ladies first

CO Capt. Rome says:
::runs a tricorder over the Ensign::

Khethiwe Amuz says:
::gets out and looks around::

CO Capt. Rome says:
::glances down at his burned hand from his chair console::

SO Smith says:
CEO: I can't contact the bridge which means you are our commaning officer down here until we re-establish contact.

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
Amuz: Looks like we are near Engineering... Let's see if we can find out who is here

CO Capt. Rome says:
FCO: You will live.....is the pain subsiding?

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
::shouts:: Aloud: Hello? Anyone here? Anyone hear me?

FCO Ens. Uax says:
CO: starting to... :: winces :: 

CO Capt. Rome says:
::grabs another vial from the kit and injects himself with a painkiller::

CO Capt. Rome says:
FCO: Good, here. ::hands her the kit:: Keep a hold on this and lay still.

CO Capt. Rome says:
::stands up and moves over to the engineering station, a bit faster now that the pain is subsiding::

CEO Ens. Peake says:
SO: Great... look to see if anyone in injured. I'll try to see if I can restore any more power to the ship.

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
::starts walking along the corridor, calling out::

ACTION: What looks like a transporter beam starts appearing in Engineering.

CO Capt. Rome says:
::sees his crew starting to pick themselves up and nodding to him as they help each other out and try to get their station's online::

SO Smith says:
CEO: No one is hurt except a few bruises from falling in the dark.

CO Capt. Rome says:
Computer: Computer, emergency Alpha-17. Activate local power supplies to Bridge stations.

Khethiwe Amuz says:
::starts looking for her phaser, which isn't there:: XO: Um, Commander?

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
::reaches for his own phaser and draws it:: Amuz: Stay behind me

ACTION: In reply to the COs request a few consoles spark up. One blows out and dies. Available now are OPS console and a science console.

CEO Ens. Peake says:
SO: Good, then you can help me.

CO Capt. Rome says:
::looks at the still dead Engineering console:: Self: Looks like I need to rig this one up 
myself....

CO Capt. Rome says:
OPS: Zen, status report!

Thalev Idrani says:
::appears in Engineering, but looks faint and almost as if he was transparent:: XO/Amuz: Damn it isn't working... it's still not enough! I'm being pulled back again! ::looks desperate::

Khethiwe Amuz says:
Idrani: Thalev!!

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
Idrani: Hold on, we will try lock onto you ::runs up to the nearest console::

OPS Lt. Zen says:
::now purple not blue from the burns:: CO: Systems have gone down across the 
ship... ::winces away a tear::

CO Capt. Rome says:
::kicks open the plating underneath the Engineering console::

SO Smith says:
CEO: Just tell me what you need, Chief.

CO Capt. Rome says:
OPS: Rest of the ship alright? any hull breaches or fires?

XO Cmdr. Ro`kar says:
::tries to get a lock on Idrani's signal, anything to keep him in the Engineering room::

CO Capt. Rome says:
::kneels down and rips out the secondary ODN coupling and power relays::

CO Capt. Rome says:
::sits down on the floor and reaches for the toolkit attached to the station and starts taking the power coupling apart::

CEO Ens. Peake says:
SO: Let's check and see if the power relays are damaged.

Thalev Idrani says:
::reaches out to touch Amuz:: Amuz: Khethiwe... how I miss you. ::his hands cupping her face and his eyes wet:: We have to try again... XO: Next time modulate the shields to 117.7 megajoules... ::turns back to Amuz:: Amuz: You are my strength.

ACTION: Idrani seems to fade more in the same sort of way as he appeared and disappears.
