Last time on the Scimitar...
The Scimitar managed to stop the mirror ship attack from being successful, discovering in the process that the mirror Shinra was responsible. Before they could interrogate her, however, she ingested poison and killed herself.

The crew travelled back in time by 10 minutes in order to try and stop her from killing herself and to get some answers.

"Anyone desperate enough for suicide should be desperate enough to go to creative extremes to solve problems." - Richard Bach

CO Capt. Rome says:
::feeling a little warm, he decides now is not the time to sneak off to get his medication...that would have to wait a bit::

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
::rushes into the Brig:: Aloud: Quick! Stop her ingesting the poison!

MO Oran says:
::messing around in Sickbay::

CO Capt. Rome says:
CIV: I should never have gone looking for you, Thalev.

CIV Cmdr. Idrani says:
CO: I know the feeling.

CO Capt. Rome says:
CIV: Let's hope Ren comes up with some useful information from our...guest.

TO Ens. Spencer says:
:: lunges from the side of the XO knocking a small capsule object from Shinra's hand ::

CO Capt. Rome says:
::feels light headed and rests his head in the palm of his hand::

CSO Lt. Powers says:
::in the brig, watching the action::

TO Ens. Spencer says:
:: struggles with mirror Shinra putting her in an arm bar::  

CIV Cmdr. Idrani says:
CO: Sorry, do I nauseate you?

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
TO: Good work. ::strides forward:: Shinra: We have a few questions for you

CIV Cmdr. Idrani says:
::holds up a hand:: CO: Don't answer that.

CO Capt. Rome says:
::manages a grin:: CIV: Blue makes me spacesick.

Mirror Adm. Shinra says:
XO: Hmm.. Aren’t you a handsome piece of meat.

TO Ens. Spencer says:
:: holds the captive against the brig wall nods to the CSO to secure the pill::

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
MShinra: Why did you want to capture our universe's Shinra?

CSO Lt. Powers says:
::picks up the capsule so that Shinra can't have another go at it later::

CO Capt. Rome says:
::slumps down in his seat, his eyes rolling backwards::

Mirror Adm. Shinra says:
::struggles suddenly managing to elbow the TO in the ribs. There is a definite crack::

CIV Cmdr. Idrani says:
CO: Would you like me to take command? ::grins::

CSO Lt. Powers says:
Aloud: I wonder what it tastes like. ::resists the urge to lick it and places it in a safe container instead::

CO Capt. Rome says:
::lies motionless::

TO Ens. Spencer says:
:: feels a sharp pain emanate from his ribs and tries to ignore it pushing up further bringing her arm up towards her neck::

CIV Cmdr. Idrani says:
::shakes the CO:: CO: Oi! No sleeping on the bridge!

CIV Cmdr. Idrani says:
*MO*: Medical Officer to the bridge immediately.

CSO Lt. Powers says:
XO: I would suggest stunning our guest and placing her in restraints to avoid further injuries, sir.

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
CSO: We could try again ::smiles thinly::

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
MShinra: I'll ask  again, why did you want Admiral Shinra?

Mirror Adm. Shinra says:
XO: Well she's so beautiful. A real prize, if I do say so myself though I may be biased!

Mirror Adm. Shinra says:
::perfectly calm despite being held by the TO::

CSO Lt. Powers says:
MShinra: I suggest you answer the question truthfully. This is as nicely as it is likely to be asked.

CIV Cmdr. Idrani says:
::slaps the CO in the face:: CO: Wake up!

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
MShinra: A prize? I don't understand

CSO Lt. Powers says:
::makes sure that the security detail in the brig has the area properly secure while the TO and XO are occupied::

CO Capt. Rome says:
::doesn't respond, but with a small nosebleed::

Mirror Adm. Shinra says:
CSO: You're Starfleet. You have limits. Everyone knows that. Not like us. We had to learn how to survive.

CIV Cmdr. Idrani says:
CO: Damn, I'm not doing CPR! *MO*: Where is my medical team? Medical emergency on the bridge!

MO Oran says:
::arrives on the Bridge::

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
MShinra: And how did you get here? You knew exactly where she was at this exact point in time

CSO Lt. Powers says:
MShinra: You're assuming that reports will be written. Nobody is going to miss an extra copy of the admiral.

Mirror Adm. Shinra says:
XO: Well of course I knew where she was... CSO: Ooh feisty! ::looks genuinely disappointed at the XO:: XO: You have a time device, I have a time device.. work it out!

ACTION: MO is assisting the CO (before he dies...)

CIV Cmdr. Idrani says:
*XO*: Commander, your presence is required on the bridge.

MO Oran says:
::arrives at the CO's side with a tricorder:: CIV: Oh dear... When was the last time he got checked out?!

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
::glances at the CSO, then at MShinra:: MShinra: So you came to this universe, to capture Admiral Shinra, take her back to your universe and...er...use her

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
*CIV*: One minute

CIV Cmdr. Idrani says:
MO: You're the medical officer you tell me. I don't even know what day it is anymore.

MO Oran says:
CIV: He's degenerating again! I'm taking him to Sickbay. 

CIV Cmdr. Idrani says:
MO: Degenerating? What are you talking about? Degenerating into what?

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
CSO: Powers, take it from here... don't get too close, don't get too rough... anything goes horribly wrong, call a time jump

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
*CIV*: What's wrong?

CSO Lt. Powers says:
::quietly:: XO: Sir, I think we're going to have to go back into the fight and destroy the mirror ship and its time device.

CSO Lt. Powers says:
XO: Aye, sir.

MO Oran says:
CIV: His condition is degenerating. ::is annoyed:: *Sickbay*: Prepare to take in Capt. Rome! 

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
::whispers as he walks off:: CSO: Destroying the device is a good possibility, first get more information from her

CIV Cmdr. Idrani says:
*XO*: The Captain has a medical emergency. You are required to command the vessel in his stead. ::Watches the MO work::

ACTION: OPS Zen transports the MO and Rome to Sickbay.

TO Ens. Spencer says:
MShinra:  not all of us are bound by the same moral code... I suggest you tell the XO what he wants

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
::breaks into a run:: Self: By the prophets within us all! *CIV*: On my way

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
::slams into the wall of the turbolift:: Turbolift: Bridge, priority one

Mirror Adm. Shinra says:
TO/CSO: I see. Bad cop, bad cop! It's supposed to be good cop, bad cop. I think you'd better work out your roles. ::chuckles::

CSO Lt. Powers says:
MShinra: The XO was the good cop. You're out of friends now.

Mirror Adm. Shinra says:
CSO: But don't you see? You have all the answers you need if you think about it! It's far more fulfilling to work it out yourself... but then you are relatively new to all this.

CSO Lt. Powers says:
MShinra: But it's much more fun to make you tell me.

TO Ens. Spencer says:
MShinra:  all three of us know there are worse things than death... don't we...

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
::steps out of the turbolift, his 'captain face' on:: All: Report

MO Oran says:
::in Sickbay stabilizing the CO::

CIV Cmdr. Idrani says:
::turns to the XO as he enters and makes a polite head gesture towards the XOs ready room doors requesting a private meeting::

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
::looks at the CIV, then at the bridge:: OPS: Lieutenant Zen ::winces:: You... ::mumbles:: you have the bridge

CO Capt. Rome says:
::mumbles something about smurfs::

CSO Lt. Powers says:
TO: There is this one device I picked up during a visit to  Romulans that works wonders in these situations...

CIV Cmdr. Idrani says:
::respectfully waits for the XO to lead the way::

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
::walks towards the ready room, motioning for Idrani to follow::

Mirror Adm. Shinra says:
CSO/TO: You wouldn't dare.

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
::walks into the room, to his desk and faces Idrani:: CIV: What happened, sir?

CSO Lt. Powers says:
MShinra: I don't see anyone around who would feel like stopping us. I'll just go and fetch it and grab a medic on the way back. We wouldn't want you dying on us too quickly.

CIV Cmdr. Idrani says:
XO: Sir? Come on, Ren! ::pauses:: What do you know about the Captain's degenerative disease?

MO Oran says:
::manages to resuscitate the CO::

TO Ens. Spencer says:
MShinra:  I most definitely would.  You Terrans think because you had a short stint in slavery the universe owes you something.  But it doesn't.  By your standard it's only survival of the fittest... and you just aren't fit right now.  So you better start talking or we'll make you less comfortable and get what we want anyways.

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
::narrows his eyes:: CIV: What degenerative disease?

Mirror Adm. Shinra says:
TO: Are you high!? CSO: You have already killed me once or have you forgotten that?

CO Capt. Rome says:
::not able to focus on his surrounding, only blinking lights and sounds of machinery manage to reach his senses::

CSO Lt. Powers says:
MShinra: Yes, but that was quick and relatively painless. Trust me, a Romulan mind probe is neither of those things.

Mirror Adm. Shinra says:
CSO: It doesn't really matter what you find out. Soon I'll be travelling back and stopping you getting me in the first place. ::spoken with a real confidence::

CIV Cmdr. Idrani says:
::looks at the XO carefully:: XO: So you know nothing either. Seems he's been hiding something from us.

CSO Lt. Powers says:
MShinra: It wouldn't hurt to just tell us your plan then.

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
::folds his arms:: CIV: He is incredibly good at it then... or my CMO abilities are fading with age

Mirror Adm. Shinra says:
CSO: That wouldn't be fun. You're going to have to kill me to get that information.

CIV Cmdr. Idrani says:
XO: As a former medical officer yourself, what possible "degeneration" could he have?

CSO Lt. Powers says:
MShinra: Wouldn't it be more fun to tell me your evil plans in the knowledge that I would not be able to do anything about it?

TO Ens. Spencer says:
ALL: I don't have time for this.  ::Pushes up as on her shoulder as far as it will allow until he hears a pop::

Mirror Adm. Shinra says:
CSO: You're funny. Go on, tell another joke!

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
::thinks:: CIV: He was an engineer, he could have anything... you know how dirty those engine rooms are ::shudders::

Mirror Adm. Shinra says:
::yelps a little then she has a smile:: TO: Yes, that's more like it...

MO Oran says:
CO: It's alright, sir. You're in Sickbay and we're stabilizing you. 

TO Ens. Spencer says:
:: pushes MShinra forward and tosses the CSO his phaser:: Computer:  Activate Force field

TO Ens. Spencer says:
MShinra:  let’s see what you got

Mirror Adm. Shinra says:
TO: That's more like it! ::turns and throws a punch::

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
CIV: He spent a great deal of time in another universe, perhaps something from there? Body undergoes a large amount of stress in another universe I would imagine. Minute differences could be enough to damage the cells of a body

CIV Cmdr. Idrani says:
::nods:: XO: I don't know what you want to do as far as command. Whatever it is, I want to let you know you have my full support.

CSO Lt. Powers says:
*XO*: Sir, playing nice isn't getting us anywhere. I request permission to use some move advanced techniques. I'd have to warn you though, they're not very pleasant and not exactly legal.

TO Ens. Spencer says:
:: Takes the first punch to the face  and shakes it off a little dazed and smiles::

CSO Lt. Powers says:
TO: Don't forget to ask her questions while she kicks your ass.

Mirror Adm. Shinra says:
TO: I'm going to rip your eyes out and shove them up your ass so you can watch me kick the crap out of you.

CO Capt. Rome says:
::feels like he's back in Engineering, all those years ago:: MO: I'm on fire! ::Screams wildly before passing out again::

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
::eyes darken, a chill running up his spine:: *CSO*: Do it

TO Ens. Spencer says:
MShinra:  not bad...   ::widens his stance  evening out his balance, throws his arm out for a wrist lock and backs into her for a hip throw ::

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
CIV: Thalev... ::pauses, regret in his eyes:: I don't like his lying to us... but if... ::shakes his head:: No... he will get better...

CSO Lt. Powers says:
*XO*: Aye sir.  Sec: Keep an eye on those two and make sure she doesn't kill him. I don't want to have to do another time jump.

TO Ens. Spencer says:
MShinra:  what do you have against the federation?  What did they do to you?  We helped liberate you from the cardassians.  I know what that's like.

Mirror Adm. Shinra says:
::allows herself to get thrown, and makes sure her head hits the wall at an awkward angle::

ACTION: Shinra collapses, her neck clearly broken.

CSO Lt. Powers says:
TO: You didn't kill her did you?

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
::folds his arms tighter, lost in thought for a moment:: CIV: He has always been a tough person to crack, never been able to have the same level as familiarity that he seemed to share with MacAllister or... ::looks at him:: Or you...

TO Ens. Spencer says:
:: walks forward to fell for a pulse::

CIV Cmdr. Idrani says:
XO: I've given you advice in the past... do you mind if I do again now?

TO Ens. Spencer says:
CSO:  That's not good

CSO Lt. Powers says:
::grabs a medical tricorder and scans MShinra after lowering the forcefield::

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
CIV: Go for it.

TO Ens. Spencer says:
*XO*  We have a problem

CIV Cmdr. Idrani says:
XO: We can't afford to have false hope. I think a decision has to be made. Either leave him in command or relieve him now until he recovers. ::nods solemnly:: We can't predict the future if we can't even predict the past.

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
*TO*: Go ahead

CSO Lt. Powers says:
TO: Don't forget to mention that it was your idea.

TO Ens. Spencer says:
*XO*  Our prisoner didn't survive our "discussion"

ACTION: The Mirror universe Shinra disappears in a flash, much like she did last time the Scimitar brutally killed her.

CSO Lt. Powers says:
*XO*: Ens. Spencer means that he broke her neck... and the body just disappeared.

ACTION: Rome is put into intensive care and injected to sleep.

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
CIV: One moment.

CIV Cmdr. Idrani says:
::nods respectfully::

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
*CSO/TO*: Report back to the Bridge for a full report back

TO Ens. Spencer says:
*XO* acknowledged on my way sir

TO Ens. Spencer says:
:: picks his phaser off the table and holsters it heading for turbo lift 4 ::

CSO Lt. Powers says:
*XO*: Aye, sir. ::follows the TO::

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
::looks back at Idrani, his jaw set tight:: CIV: This ship cannot be without a Captain. Rome is the captain but he cannot command from a biobed.

CO Capt. Rome says:
::has vivid dreams of plasma burning up his body::

CSO Lt. Powers says:
TO: You should probably head to sickbay and get yourself checked out. It looked like she got in a few hard shots.

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
::swallows:: CIV: I will take the reins until he returns.

TO Ens. Spencer says:
CSO: Shouldn’t we report to the XO first...  :: wincing a little favouring his left side ::

CIV Cmdr. Idrani says:
::nods:: XO: As is your duty, Commander. That would make you acting captain. You are in need of an XO. I believe that Powers would fill that role, Ren.

CSO Lt. Powers says:
TO: If you feel up to it. I can give the report if you need some medical attention. There are some cute nurses on this shift.

ACTION: The CO dreams of a massage on Risa from a certain Lurian "beauty".

CSO Lt. Powers says:
Turbolift: Bridge.

TO Ens. Spencer says:
CSO:  Sounds peachy.  Maybe I can get a hypo with a happy ending

XO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
::nods:: Computer: Computer, log a temporary change of command, stardate 11006.06 Commander Ren Ro'kar assuming command of the Scimitar, authorization Alpha Two Three Gamma Five

CSO Lt. Powers says:
TO: I wouldn't put it quite like that while you are down there. ::exits the turbolift and steps onto the bridge::

CIV Cmdr. Idrani says:
ACO: Okay... Captain. ::gestures that he'll return to the bridge:: I'll continue to help in any way I can, of course.

ACO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
CIV: Appreciate it, si- ::clears his throat:: Thalev

CIV Cmdr. Idrani says:
::nods respectfully and goes back to the bridge::

TO Ens. Spencer says:
Computer:  Sickbay please

CSO Lt. Powers says:
::waits for the XO so that he can report the bad news::

TO Ens. Spencer says:
:: hears the whine of the turbo lift start up, is having a really hard time breathing ::

ACO Cmdr. Ro’kar says:
::enters the bridge again, straightening his jacket:: OPS: Lieutenant Zen, I will take the bridge now, thank you. ::looks at the new arrivals:: Or perhaps not...

CSO Lt. Powers says:
ACO: It wasn't my fault...
