Last time on the Seleya:

Two teams went down to the barren planet in shuttles.  There the captain had discovered an artifact left from the Magna Romans letting them know they were at least in an area the Romans had visited. From there they located a deep shaft driven into the planets crust; what once had been used as a means for transportation from what long ago may have been part of a large complex leading down into an area of protection.

Leaving behind three of the scientists and some security officers to discover what they could before the storms returned, the rest of the crew and scientists repelled down the 2 km shaft (a long way to climb back up).  It was obvious that someone had moved much of the debris from the hole to allow them to reach to the bottom; more evidence of someone having been on this world recently.

At the bottom they found two openings leading into opposite directions.  From the suggestion of one of the scientists, they headed down what appeared to be an area used for work that in of itself came to another junction with one leading into a huge cavern from which the walls and ceiling could not be seen.  Shjal noticed markings; a language, similar to that on the equipment that had been taken from the Romans. While the captain was given the impression of being inside the ship, MacArthur had the impression of a vast engineering room.

Maor set flares about the place to give them some light to work with, revealing control panels and equipment and in the center of the area lit up, a vast emptiness where something had once sat, but recently had been removed. Trigger worked on connecting one of the panels to an auxiliary power unit, with some success.  As the lights flashed along the console, he tapped a few of the buttons.  Suddenly a large rumbling reverberated through the area…

Captain's log, stardate 10909.27. We are now underground, investigating what appears to be either a vast space ship or an engineering room. Perhaps its both. Our efforts were successful in awaking one of its mechanisms. I hope it was not the self-destruct.

<<<<<<<<<< Lost Dreams V >>>>>>>>>>

 CO Capt Gomes says:
@::fells the rumbling and looks around:: All: Does anyone know what is causing that?
CEO Lt Trigger says:
@::holds on to the console:: All: I think we woke it up!
XO Lt Stradiot says:
::Sitting on the bridge:: SO: Update on the away team?
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@::Glances around:: CO: I can tell you what it isn't, anything good.
SO Lt Rose says:
XO:  So far so good.  The storm is holding off.
XO Lt Stradiot says:
::Nods:: SO: Good...Keep and eye out on them.
 
ACTION:  As the rumbling grows louder, light begins to filter down into the deep cavern as the huge roof rolls back grindingly along an ancient track.
 
CO Capt Gomes says:
@CIV: Lets not be pessimistic. ::approaches Trigger:: CEO: Do you know what systems you were tapping into?
CEO Lt Trigger says:
@::points to the roof:: CO: The sunroof by the looks of it.
OPS Craig says:
XO:  I have an incoming message from the freighter Begay requesting permission to drop off our new CTO.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ CO, CEO: Maybe we're inside a huge hanger of some sort?
FCO of Begay says:
# *CTO*:  We are almost at your destination.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@::instinctively looks up:: All: So that is how this thing flies
Dean Garret says:
@:: more to himself.::  Well, that explains how they got things in and out of here.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@CIV: Contact the tactical team we left on the surface. Let them know this was our doing and warn them to keep away
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ CEO: Can you determine what fueled this contraption? ::Moves closes to the CEO's console::
CTO Ens Morley says:
# :: Nods in confirmation ::
CEO Lt Trigger says:
CO: I reckon you could get a shuttle through that gap, maybe we should bring them in.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ ::Nods at the CO's request, doing as ordered while keeping an eye on the console::
XO Lt Stradiot says:
OPS: New CTO hmm? Alright, bring him in.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@CEO: To take up samples?
 
Scenery:  As the doors come to a stop, the area below is lit up showing what had once been a ground shipping yard.  In the center, the area is clear, but toward the walls can be seen two vessels collapsed where there had been a cave-in.  Near another wall stood two vessels that were incomplete; one in the early stages and one a more advanced stages

CEO Lt Trigger says:
@CO: That'd be a good start, might help if we need to evac too.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@::looks around:: CEO: Something tells me we wont need evac...but I have to agree it beams going up that work shaft
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ ::Looks back at the newly revealed sight:: Out loud: These look awfully a lot like the ships the Magna Romans used.
FCO of Begay says:
# *CTO*:  Permission granted.  If you will head for the transporter room, we will beam you over.
CO Capt Gomes says:
@CIV: Slight change of plans, can you ask one of the tactical officers to bring the shuttle Avas down here?
CEO Lt Trigger says:
@::nods and attempts to contact the Seleya::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@CIV: Exactly, except they seem to have found the only working ones. That is why this place is so empty
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@CEO/CIV: Now what I would really like is see if any of these vessels has an intact database
OPS Craig says:
 XO:  Incoming call from the surface.
CTO Ens Morley says:
# *FCO of Begay*: Thank you for the smooth ride! Take care now. :: heads to transporter ::
XO Lt Stradiot says:
OPS: On screen
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ ::Turns his attention back to the Captain's direction:: CO: Even a better suggestion, I've received word that your new CTO has landed. Do you wish to send for him with one of the shuttles?
FCO of Begay says:
#  *CTO*:  You're welcome sir.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@CIV: Its a good idea in theory Maor, but in practice do you really want a green Ensign brining a shuttle in the middle of these storms? Lets not chase him away just yet
CTO Ens Morley says:
# :: Enters transporter room and steps onto pad :: @CO: USS Seleya: This is Ens Morley, permission to beam over
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ CO: Indeed. ::Hits his badge and relay's the Captain's orders::
CEO Lt Trigger says:
@COM: Seleya: I don't know if you guys noticed it from up there but we've just opened up what appears to be a hangar door, I need to know if there's any surface activity at all round the doors.
Tveken says:
@ Garret:  It is obvious what this place is for.  The question is how many ships did they build here, did any of them leave and what happened here as well.  Note the cave in at the other end.
XO Lt Stradiot says:
SO: Beam him up.
 
# ACTION:  Ensign Morley is beamed over to the transporter room were one of the security officers awaits him.

XO Lt Stradiot says:
::Looks back to the screen and listens to the CEO:: COM: CEO: Alright, we're looking into it now.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ ::Begins making his way toward the direction of the more complete vessel::
XO Lt Stradiot says:
SO: We picking up any surface activity?
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@::approaches one of the incomplete vessels and looks for a way in::
CTO Ens Morley says:
:: Materializes on USS Seleya ::
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ ::Raises an eyebrow:: CO: Head first and consequences be damned?
 
@ ACTION:  One of the security officers left on the surface quickly enters a shuttle and carefully takes it down into the deep cavern, landing it in the indentation of where a far larger ship once stood.

CEO Lt Trigger says:
@COM: XO: I'll do my best to keep this frequency open, we're going to be sending some samples up in a shuttle.
SO Lt Rose says:
XO:  Nothing that I can see.
Sec Dell says:
CTO:  Welcome aboard.  Shall I show you to your quarters?
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@::finds a way in:: CIV: I thought you were in charge of finding the remains of the builders of these things?
XO Lt Stradiot says:
COM: CEO: We're not picking up any surface activity at the moment. Samples? Alright, we'll be ready to receive them.
CTO Ens Morley says:
Sec Dell: I'm happy to be here, I would like that very much. :: Heads to quarters with Dell ::
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ CO: Curiosity got the best of me, I suppose. ::Follows the CO:: Careful what you touch in here.
CEO Lt Trigger says:
@::nods to the display on the screen and taps at the console to check the signal strength::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@::tries to bring a console to life:: CIV: No Danger, no power. Lets check the next one
CO Capt Gomes says:
@::exits the ship again and turns towards the CEO:: CEO: Did you happen to come across a centralized database?
Sec Dell says:
:: As they enter the lift, she orders it to the new CTO's new quarters::  CTO:  It is good to have you aboard, sir.  I heard there was a bit of trouble getting you here.  :: as the lift stops, she steps off and heads down the hall.::  Once you drop your things off, I will take you to the XO.
CEO Lt Trigger says:
@CO: Not yet... I've got a stable COM link to the ship though, it's on the screen there. ::points to the open channel and tries to access the database::
CO Capt Gomes says:
@CEO: Good work
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@CIV: Do you think we will have better luck in those damaged ships?
Dean Garret says:
@CEO:  I think I have the basic idea of things.
CTO Ens Morley says:
Dell: Trouble? No, I booked passage on a Ferengi transport that decided to take to scenic route to our rendezvous! :: sighs :: Dell: I'll only be a moment :: Enters Quarters ::
CEO Lt Trigger says:
@Garret: It looks to me like they were building a number of these ships when the place caved in, but... ::looks around:: There's only one missing from here, which means there's at least one more facility.
Sec Dell says:
:: smiles and politely waits.::
Dean Garret says:
@ CEO:  The missing one is probably the one the Romans took.  But I think I found their console for power.  My guess is there is another section that has some kind of generator.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@::walks towards the caved-in ships and scans them for integrity::
CTO Ens Morley says:
:: Throws bag onto nearby chair and looks at ceiling :: Self: Here we go... :: Fixes hair and exits quarters ::
CEO Lt Trigger says:
@Garret: Most likely, but my point is, we pulled three of these off Magna Roma, I don't think they replicated the vessels from the one from this hangar... ::thinks for a moment:: Show me this console you found.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@CIV: According to the tricorder this one is pretty safe ... they made these ships to last ::tries to look for a way in::
Sec Dell says:
CTO:  If you will follow me sir... :: heads out and to the lift, waiting for him to enter before ordering it to the bridge.::

@Scenery:  About 3 meters from the floor, there is an opening into one of the damaged vessels.

 CO Capt Gomes says:
@::disappears into the ship::
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ CO: You just hate those damn pesky protocols who get in your way, don't you? ::Follows the CO::
Dean says:
@CEO:  Actually, you pulled one ship and two platforms we called weapons because the Romans used them as such, but seeing this, I have another theory about them.
CTO Ens Morley says:
Dell: Thanks ::Travels in Turbo lift to bridge::
CEO Lt Trigger says:
@Garret: Do tell.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@CIV: You still failed to find me a threat ::looks at the damaged flight controls:: CIV: Lets see if we can get any power from the engine section
Dean Garret says:
@ CEO:  I am thinking of them more along the lines of deflectors.
CEO Lt Trigger says:
@Garret: But that would mean...
Sec Dell says:
:: As the lift stops, she steps off and over to the command chair::  XO:  Sir, Ensign Morley.
CO Capt Gomes says:
@::finds the engineering area of the vessel and starts tweaking with the controls, thinking back into the last time she did any engineering task::
Sec Dell says:
:: with a nod and a smile to the new CTO, she steps away and heads back to her duties.::
XO Lt Stradiot says:
::Turns and looks at the new CTO:: CTO: Welcome aboard, Ensign. Your station, then.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ CO: You're enjoying this far too much, you realize that,  don't you?
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@CIV: and you seem to have a problem with that. Can you make yourself useful and open that panel next to you? I think if you fix the circuit there we can power up the ship, at least enough to access its database
 
@ ACTION:  Power comes to stuttering life aboard the damaged ship.  There are the sounds of popping and sparks indicating damaged circuitry along with the scent.

CTO Ens Morley says:
XO: Yes sir! Happy to be aboard :: Goes to Tactical station :: XO: Where is the captain? I've been looking forward to meeting her
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ CO: Uh, that wasn't me.
CTO Ens Morley says:
:: Logs into station and scans through previous duty logs ::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@::gets up and cleans her hands:: CIV: That is the expression of all my fun
XO Lt Stradiot says:
::Blinks at the CTO's enthusiasm:: CTO: The Captain is on the surface.
CEO Lt Trigger says:
@::looks to the damaged ship as sounds of power filter from it::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@*CEO*: I managed to get power back on this one. Its too damaged to fly but maybe it has a database
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ CO: Any luck? ::Attempts to access one of the consoles::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@CIV: You tell me
Dean Garret says:
@ CEO:  It would mean... what?
CEO Lt Trigger says:
@*CO*: I wish you wouldn't do that Cap'n, you brought me here for a reason remember. ::taps at the console that Garret led him to::
CEO Lt Trigger says:
@Garret: Do you think it's possible to turn a planet into a self propelled vessel?
Dean Garret says:
@ :: Looks around and then back at the engineer::  CEO:  That would be a mighty hard thing to do, breaking a planet away from its gravitational pull.  I don't think that is likely though.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ CO: I can't seem to make any progress with these consoles, I'm having hard enough of time keeping them intact.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@*CEO*: I did and you are doing an excellent job with the hangar central system. I just want to know where these vessels have been to. Have you had any success finding a centralized database. What were these ships used for? Who built them?
CTO Ens Morley says:
XO: The surface sir? The captain? :: Perplexed expression :: XO: The reports I read on the way over are out of date, I shall apprise myself of the situation ::continues reading logs at the station, whilst keeping an eye on incoming tactical reports ::
CO Capt Gomes says:
@::takes a look:: CIV: You can't interface with anything at all?
XO Lt Stradiot says:
::Can't help but chuckle lightly as he turns back to the screen::
Tveken says:
@:: Hearing::  CEO/Garret:  I think this place is exactly what it appears to be.  A populace working on getting off their dying world.
CEO Lt Trigger says:
@Garret: Then what other use could there be for having deflector type emitter platforms on the surface?
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ CO: I can't, I just can't make sense of most of it. Maybe if we linked it to the Seleya's computers.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@::nods:: CIV: Do it. I will see how things are back at the hangar
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ CO: I'll have to work on a buffer system, it'll take me a few minutes. ::Begins to code::
Dean Garret says:
CEO:  If the planet was being bombarded by space debris?  Or maybe it was meant to protect the ships themselves.  After all, we do not know how far their technology was compared to what we know.
CEO Lt Trigger says:
@Tveken: The sheer number of ships would support that theory.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@*CEO*: Maor found some data but he can't decipher it. He may need your com link to send all of this to the Seleya
CEO Lt Trigger says:
@Garret: That makes sense too.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@::leaves the damaged ship and resumes scans with her tricorder, looking for any signs of organic signs::
CEO Lt Trigger says:
@::assigns an engineer to work on getting the facility's main power systems fired up and returns to the console with the open COM link to connect it to the ship the CO is in::
  XO Lt Stradiot says:
CTO: Where do you hail from, then?
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@::finds a faint signal towards the caved in area and carefully approaches it::
Verdj says:
@ :: exits from one of the doorways along the wall::  CEO/Garret:  I think I found your power sorce.
CEO Lt Trigger says:
@::looks over to Verdj and has the other engineer handle the data transfer before approaching him:: Verdj: What did you find?
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@*All*: I found what may be organic remains, but they are under this cave in. Maybe we can beam them out ::scans the area thoroughly::
Verdj says:
@ CEO:  A variety of things, including what might once have been a hydroponics room.  Little left beyond some equipment and dust.
SO Lt Rose says:
 XO:  Sir, it would appear they have found some organic remains.
CTO Ens Morley says:
:: Looks up from console :: XO: Earth sir, Jamaica specifically ::Notices Stradiot's slightly pointed ears:: XO: Like you I'm not entirely human, My mother was Klingon :: furrows brow :: XO: You sir?
CEO Lt Trigger says:
@Verdj: They’d need a hydroponics bay to help with the filtration of air down here but what of this power source?
XO Lt Stradiot says:
::Nods to the SO:: SO: They beaming anything up for analysis?
XO Lt Stradiot says:
CTO: Earth as well; San Francisco actually. Mother was Vulcan, actually.
Verdj says:
@:: guides the two men back through the section he had come from and down a long hall that leads to another section.::  CEO:  That way is the hydroponics,  :: heads the opposite way.::
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ *CO*: I'm going to connect the shuttle's database to the Seleya's main processing core, hopefully it'll provide us enough processing power to translate what I've been able to recover.
CEO Lt Trigger says:
@::follows Verdj down the corridor::
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@*CIV*: Carry on
 
@Scenery:  Verdj leads the group into what appears to be a room where energy was generated and dispersed.
 
CO Capt Gomes says:
@*Tveken*: I found what may well be remains of whoever built this. I think you should be here
Tveken says:
@  *CO*:  Where are you located?  I am on my way.
CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ ::Does so::
CEO Lt Trigger says:
@::enters the room and heads for the least dusty console, applying the emergency power pack to it and tapping a few commands to attempt to activate it::
SO Rose says:
 XO:  Nothing of yet, sir.
XO Lt Stradiot says:
::Nods:: SO: Keep me posted.
 CO Capt Gomes says:
@*Tveken*"I am in the hangar, near the caved in area
 
@ ACTION:  The console the CEO is working on, stutters to life for a moment.

CEO Lt Trigger says:
@::looks over the console for a moment and taps in a few commands::
 
@ACTION:  Surprisingly, after a few minutes, the shuttles computer has an interpretation of the data sent by Maor.

CTO Ens Morley says:
:: Forces a smile as he's never been one for small talk :: XO: This planet... it seems to be a significant find, I wish I got here in time to be part of the away team.
