Last time on the Seleya:

Arriving in the Caledonians system, the crew is met with the unexpected surprise of many alien ships about it; Five large carriers holding between 3000 - 5000 human life forms and 20 smaller, saber class size vessels, in orbit around it.  Within the saber classes were single fighters of unknown numbers.

The unknown aliens had fired upon the Seleya.  But though the aliens had the advantage in ships and power to do so, they only slowed the Federation ship down.  When the Seleya deployed a plasma stream to temporarily disable the fighters, the aliens ignited the plasma, destroying their own ships before heading out of the Aberdeen system.

Picking up a weak signal from the planet Caledonia, the captain places the ship in orbit to send down a team.   The primary city, Skye, is little more then a hole in the ground.  The surrounding areas are high in radiation.  The next largest settlement, located in the southern hemisphere on the second largest continent, Kintyre, is in tact physically, but there are only week life signs in the surrounding area. One survivor was found in a church, badly damaged by radiation, having set the mayday signal.  He has been taken to try and save him, prognosis is not good.

Further sensors show scattered remnants of the colony hiding mostly in the mountain regions.  Survivors appear to be those that had been away from the main populated areas of the planet.

Two Federation ships are being sent to assist, but they are approximately a week away.  The Seleya is to assess the damage and then decide which situation is of the greater priority.  The captain is displeased with that, hoping for more guidance.  Her decision is to help the Caledonians to the point they can assist themselves and then head after the attackers to the Talk system, where she believes they have done the same or will do so to that colonial system.

While the XO takes a team down to the planet to assess the devastation, the CSec and SO have been looking over the debris from the freighter and finding confirming information to earlier scans.  The debris has a Federation signature, but it is not the same as it is made up of different material.  Some of the pieces found appear more like museum relics. The CSec wonders if they are looking at a rogue lost Earth colony.

XO Stradiot Log, Stardate 10903.01... I have returned to the Seleya and currently waiting for our guest to recover...Perhaps we can get some answers from him. Meanwhile, I need to dispatch more teams to help the people on the planet out of the radiated areas.

<<<<<<<<<< Rendering Rome IV>>>>>>>>>

SO Lt Rose says:
:: Having finished helping to look through the debris and turned over the relevant parts over to engineering, she follows Caelan back to the bridge.::

CSEC LtJG Trigger says:
::steps in to the Turbolift  and holds the door open for Brianna::

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
::on the transporter pad, half in an EVA suit, helmet in her arm:: TC: Prepare to beam me back down. ::puts the helmet on:: *CIV*: Commander, I'm on my way down with new orders from the Captain to assist anyone we can.

XO Lt Stradiot says:
::Steps back onto the bridge and sits in his chair and sighs lightly:: SO: Any information on who the attackers are?

SO Lt Rose says:
:: Steps off onto the bridge::  XO: Just conflicting information at the moment.  It looks almost like the Federation is at fault... if we had not been here to see otherwise that is.

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
TC: Beam me down to the CIV's location. ::takes a breath to prepare herself for the horrible sights of post-nuclear war::

ACTION:  OPS is beamed back down to the planet along with more medics and other personel to assist.

XO Lt Stradiot says:
::Shakes head:: SO: Thanks...Keep trying to find something.

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
@::steps over to the CIV:: CIV: Commander, sensors show some groups just outside the city. Unless you have any objections, I'd like to see if I can get to them.

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ ::Glances left at the sound of the materializing person:: OPS: We've done all we can in here. Lead the way, Ensign. ::Gestures at the direction of the exit::

XO Lt Stradiot says:
CSEC: I'd like you to take a team down to the planet as well. Try and find groups of survivors and get them to areas that aren't irradiated.

CSEC LtJG Trigger says:
::steps off after the SO:: SO: I'm going to have a look at this... ::holds up the communicator:: Maybe it could help us find out who we're dealing with.

CSEC LtJG Trigger says:
XO: Survivors? That's a pretty big area to be looking.

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
@::nods and turns to the east:: CIV: The closest group is about a half-mile from here. Seems to be in a cave of some sort, but I can't be too sure.

SO Lt Rose says:
XO: Sir, according to sensor logs, one of the smaller continents was basically left untouched.  We could locate most of them there... the problem with that, is they will not be able to easily leave.  It is also not the best environment... a bit on the chilly side.

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ OPS: Understood. ::Follows the OPS::

XO Lt Stradiot says:
SO: Are there any relatively safe areas on the main continent?

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
@ ::leads the way, passing by what is left of an old school::

SO Lt Rose says:
XO: Some of the mountain regions... same thing though.  Nice to look at, but not the best for living. :: shrugs::  Then again, these people used to live in such regions.  If we leave enough supplies behind, they should be fine until help arrives.

CSEC LtJG Trigger says:
::slides the communicator into his pocket and scrambles a security team to meet in the transporter room::

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
@ ::walks past a sign which reads 'Megaton - 10 Miles' and 'Vault 92 - 12 Miles'::

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ OPS: Anything to shed some light on what kind of a weapon could have caused this? ::Glances around::

XO Lt Stradiot says:
SO: We should leave some supplies in these regions then. Relocate them there and they'll last the time until the other ships arrive to help.

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
@CIV: Well, atomic weapons seem most likely. Devastating.

SO Lt Rose says:
XO: Operations could create small refugee points with beacon signals sent out... assuming the people will go to them.  I don't know about you, but I would try to stay as far from anything I was not certain about as I could... :: shrugs::  I am not a fan of traps.

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ OPS: Buildings seem too well intact.

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
@CIV: Yes, it is eerie... for naked flesh though...::lets the sentence trail::

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ OPS: Hydrogen bomb? ::Studies a hanging sign::

CSEC LtJG Trigger says:
XO: You still want me to take a team down or investigate these other ships?

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
@::looks at her tricorder:: CIV: Nearly there. Whatever the bomb was, it definitely worked.

XO Lt Stradiot says:
CSEC: Yes, sorry. Keep working with SO on these other ships...We do need information on what we're getting into.

XO Lt Stradiot says:
*OPS*: How are things going down there?

@Scenery: Out of the destructive area, the hillsides are lovely.  Made-up of limestone, the system is riddled with openings.

OPS Craig says:
XO: Sir, incoming message from the Federation.. They have diverted a medical ship, the USS Republic of Dave. Should be here in 2.5 days.

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ OPS: Need to watch for any bombs that didn't go off, last thing we need is to get caught in the middle of another incident. Which reminds me. ::Catches up with the OPS:: Where's our medical escort?

CSEC LtJG Trigger says:
::cancels the security team and pulls the communicator back out placing it on his console::

XO Lt Stradiot says:
::Nods:: OPS Craig: Thank you.

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
@::turns and sees the medical team struggling to keep up and points for the CIV:: CIV: I think the entrance to the cave is just on this hill up ahead.

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
@::walks out of the built up area and onto the hill:: CIV: Yes, over here...

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ ::Nods and activates the flashlight from his wrist beacon:: OPS: Indeed.

XO Lt Stradiot says:
SO: Yes...It's worth setting up for them. As smaller groups of people migrate to safe areas, others will flock there as well.

CSEC LtJG Trigger says:
::tries to interface the console with the Communicator::

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
@::gets to the cave entrance and with her flashlight already activated due to the dust levels outside, steps inside::

SO Lt Rose says:
:: Nods and sends the order to operations to set up various rescue areas with supplies, throughout areas away from the radiation and in areas where the are reading human lifesigns.::

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ OPS: Phasers at ready. ::Motions two of the security guards to take point::

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
@CIV: There is a chamber up ahead, I am reading 39 lifesigns. ::takes phaser out::

CSEC LtJG Trigger says:
::manages to retrieve the communication frequency::

@ Scenery:  Footprints can be seen written across the cave floor.  The smell of earth and fear waft on the air.

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ OPS: Can we expect mutations here, Ensign?

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ ::Readies his own phaser rifle::

XO Lt Stradiot says:
*Sickbay*: How is our guest?

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
@CIV: Well, Sir, we should expect people with horrific injuries but mutations... The radiation probably would mutate any fetuses or future generations with mutations.

CSEC LtJG Trigger says:
OPS Craig: I need you to scan for any communication on this frequency. ::sends the frequency to the OPS console::

MO Love says:
*XO*: He is in bad shape sir.  If you are going to talk with him, you will want to do so soon.  He is stable for the moment.

OPS Craig says:
CSEC: Wilco. Scanning now. ::activates scan::

XO Lt Stradiot says:
*MO*: I'm on my way...::Heads for the TL:: SO: You have the con.

OPS Craig says:
CSEC: I'm getting a reply from near what's left of Skye. ::plays it over the comm system::

CSEC LtJG Trigger says:
::listens::

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
@::moves forward, passing a few stalagmites and coming towards a turning that opens into the chamber:: Aloud: Hello? We are from Starfleet and are here to assist. ::calls ahead::

ACTION:  Over the communicator is heard the sound of the wind along with what could be the moans of humanoids.

XO Lt Stradiot says:
::Moves quickly towards sickbay::

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ ::Nods and turns to address one of the MOs:: MO: Contact the Seleya, have her send two Type Eight's shuttles down here to transport the causalities. We don't want to risk their transportation at their current state.

CSEC LtJG Trigger says:
OPS Craig: Scan Skye for life signs.

SO Lt Rose says:
CSec:  What do you think... as often as I have had the bridge lately, do you think they are trying to tell me something?

OPS Craig says:
CSEC: We've been scanning non-stop. There are groups of survivors everywhere. I will pinpoint the source of the message. ::does so::

XO Lt Stradiot says:
::Walks in:: MO Love: He conscious?

CSEC LtJG Trigger says:
SO: I wouldn't be surprised. you're always pretty level headed in a crisis. ::winks::

@ ACTION:  A man in tattered clothes steps out from behind a stalactite with some sort of pipe in his hand to glare at the newcomers.

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ Man: Hold it. ::Takes a cautious step forward:: We mean you no harm. We're here to help.

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
@::stops where she is, and having point, takes the initiative to speak:: Man: We are here to help... ::points to the medics:: These are Doctors. I can see there are some here who really need immediate help... ::gestures to a small child no older than 7 years old with massive bleeding::

MO Love says:
XO: No... but I can make him so.  When I do, sir... you will not have much time.  ::Leads him into one of the small private rooms.::

OPS Craig says:
CSEC: Looks like... there are some lifesigns just outside the city, very few and very weak.

XO Lt Stradiot says:
::Nods:: MO: Understandable. ::Follows MO into a private room::

CSEC LtJG Trigger says:
SO: We just don't have the resources for this kind of operation.

McGregger says:
@ ::stares at the newcomers with red-shot eyes::  OPS:  Aye, we be needin’ the help.  Prove who ye say ye are.

MO Love says:
:: Leaning over the man with a hypo in hand, she injects him with a stimulant and then steps back.  Quietly::  XO:  He should not be in any pain, sir.  :: Steps out of the room.::

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
@McGregger: Seriously? Just accept the help. What do you want me to do? Sing the Federation Anthem? ::steps forward to his left towards someone in the recovery position::

XO Lt Stradiot says:
::Steps forward:: Sean: What happened?

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
@::bends down and pulls one man's kilt up to his knees to see his burns::

McGregger says:
@ OPS: If ye knew what we have been through mon, ye would not need to ask that question.  :: steps aside.::

Sean says:
:: Slowly his eyes open and he blinks them, trying to see.  His voice comes out scratchy, barely heard::  XO:  Who are you?

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
@McGregger: I have seen enough to know that I can never fully understand what you went through, but I do want to help.

XO Lt Stradiot says:
Sean: XO Stradiot from the Seleya. Your on our ship at the moment, and out of that church.

Sean says:
XO: You came... :: shakes his head::  But too late... too late... :: tears roll down his cheek::

CSEC LtJG Trigger says:
SO: You know... if this communicator is connected to one on the ground, maybe it wasn't the attackers who brought it.

SO Lt Rose says:
CSec:  It could also have been left behind by one of the attackers.  For that matter... maybe there might be some of their bodies.  :: frowns::  Then again, if they are human, would we be able to tell them apart?

XO Lt Stradiot says:
Sean: I know. We're doing the best we can to help who is still alive. You can help as well, I just need to know what happened. You had a Transmitter with you...did you hear anything from the attackers?

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
@McGregger: Does this cave link up with the ones on the North side of the Rivet Suburb?

McGregger says:
@ :: Watches as the strangers move about::  OPS/CIV:  What do ye need from me?

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
@::looks to McGregger for an answer::

Sean says:
XO: I saw them... but... it made no sense.  They looked human, just like you and me.  Only I did not recognize their uniform.  They told us we were to surrender.  :: gasps as he finds it hard to breath::

CSEC LtJG Trigger says:
SO: This would be so much easier if we knew where those other ships were heading... we could ask one of them. ::grins::

McGregger says:
@ :: Watches as the strangers move about::  OPS:  There be a whole system of caves.  Most are too small for anything but a child.

Host XO Lt Stradiot says:
Sean: Can you describe the uniform?

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ McGregger: Are there any other survivors beside yourselves that you've heard of?

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
@::helps a medic::

Sean says:
:: Tries to get a breath::  Black... I remember black.

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
@::sees a mother weeping, holding a limp baby and moves over with a medic::

ACTION:  The biosignals on the biobed start to redline.

XO Lt Stradiot says:
::Pulls some Dexalin out of his bag and injects Sean with it::

McGregger says:
@ :: shakes his head::  CIV:  Only what be here about us.

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
@::gently takes the baby, scans it, there is a chance for survival:: MO: Here...

SO Lt Rose says:
CSec:  I have a lock on that signal to beam aboard. :: frowns::  There is no need to beam down into that mess.

XO Lt Stradiot says:
::Injects Hyperzine as well:: Sean: Come on...don't give up that easily...

Sean says:
:: His breath eases a bit::

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ ::Nods:: McGregger: We have shuttles en route to transport your wounded to our ships, I assume you want off this planet as soon as possible?

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
*XO*: Sir, I have a mother and her baby that require immediate medical attention. I'd like to beam those with emergency needs up to Sickbay.

CSEC LtJG Trigger says:
SO: I'd rather not beam down there if I can avoid it... I'll take a look at it in the lab.

McGregger says:
@ :: shakes his head again::  CIV:  This be our home.  We want that back.  But for now... :: Nods to the wounded.::

XO Lt Stradiot says:
*OPS*: Is there any danger of radiation?

XO Lt Stradiot says:
Sean: Just black....that's all you remember?

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
@*XO*: Not in levels that concern us.

Sean says:
XO:  They told us we were to surrender.  The Major laughed in disblief.  They shot him.  Then they started trying to round us up, shooting any runners.

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ McGregger: Understood. ::Moves to the direction of the OPS:: OPS: We have shuttles en route, Ensign. Radiation doesn't bid well to our transport systems. Can they wait for the shuttles?

ACTION:  His voice gets fainter and fainter at the same time the biosignals begin to redline and cease.

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
@CIV: I understand Sir but these two wouldn't survive until then.

XO Lt Stradiot says:
*OPS*: Beam them up then. ::Turns around and pokes his head out of the door:: Medics: I need a medic in here, Stat.

SO Lt Rose says:
CSec:  Make sure you have an EVA on.

CSEC LtJG Trigger says:
SO: Of course petal. ::grins::

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
*XO*: Aye Sir, have them lock onto the tags. Ecchumati out. ::pins tags on the bay, her mother, and one other::

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ OPS: Understood. ::Taps his own badge:: *XO*: Lieutenant, we need an ETA for the shuttles arrival.

CSEC LtJG Trigger says:
::steps into the turbolift::

ACTION:  A medical team arrives within moments, but Sean sighs out his last breath.

MO Love says:
XO: Sorry, sir....

XO Lt Stradiot says:
*CIV*: Your shuttles will be there in about seven minutes.

SO Lt Rose says:
:: Stares down at her board with a grin:: Petal?  I think I have been insulted.

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ Medical staff: Okay, let's get the wounded ready for transport people. ::Moves to assist one of the medics::

@ ACTION: Those tagged by OPS are beamed aboard to medical.

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
@::moves over to McGregger and scans him with a medical tricorder:: McGregger: Were you injured?

XO Lt Stradiot says:
MO Love: No harm done. I was able to keep him alive a little bit longer...but hopefully there are others who can give us information as well. We need these new arrivals to be taken care of now.

@ACTION: Three shuttles arrive near the base of the hill.

CSEC LtJG Trigger says:
::arrives on the right deck and heads straight for the lab::

MO Love says:
XO: We will do our best sir.

OPS Ens Ecchumati says:
@::moves to the right place and does the right thing::

XO Lt Stradiot says:
::Walks out of the room and heads towards the bridge again::

@ ACTION:  Those who can, help with the wounded, leading them outside the cave.  All of them look up as they exit, fear in their eyes, before heading down the hill.
