Last time on the Seleya:

War is never clean, no matter how history writes it.  It is always messy.  For those far away it is but a footnote in their recordings, but not for those who were part of it.  It will be decades before Earth returns to the way it was and that is with the combined help of the people.  In many ways it brought humans together.

For some, the war will become a memory in a few years.   And for others, they will never forget at as they grieve for their lost ones.  But what of those that are missing in action?  How does one handle that kind of loss.

The station has been retaken, though the captain has lost her yacht.  The crew were given a few days of R&R before they were called back to help search for some of those missing.

Captain's log, Stardate 11308.04. We are approaching the last known location of the USS Nevsky. I am uncertain as to what we will find but I hope this is a rescue mission and not a retrieval.

<<<<<<<<< Not to be forgotten... >>>>>>>>>>

CO Capt Gomes says:
::In the big chair, looking at the viewscreen::
CTO Cmdr Heller says:
::At his station on the bridge, watching his sensors as they near the system.::
SO Lt Rose says:
::Arriving onto the bridge, she walks over to the captain and hands her a padd with the report on it.::  CO:  Sorry, Captain... it was pretty much as we thought.  Because of the prime directive and the fact it is near Ferengi space, there is little on the world... not even a name.

CO Capt Gomes says:
::Takes the PADD:: SO: Understood. You will get the chance to gather more information now. Specifically, make sure they are still pre-warp. Just because we have a prime directive, it doesn't mean everyone does.
CO Capt Gomes says:
OPS: Any signs of the Nevsky on long range sensors?
OPS LtCmdr Pandora says:
::Sat on the bridge, monitoring the communications in the surrounding space::
CTO Cmdr Heller says:
CO:  I'm picking up warp signatures matching both Federation and Vroa.
OPS LtCmdr Pandora says:
::Looks at the sensor readings before responding:: CO: Negative. No sign of the ship. Communications in the area are quiet.
CO Capt Gomes says:
CTO: Red alert. ::Gets up::
SO Lt Rose says:
::Nods as she heads for her station.::
CO Capt Gomes says:
OPS: Hail the Federation signal that Commander Heller reported.
OPS LtCmdr Pandora says:
::Nods:: CO: Aye captain. ::Drafts a message to be sent to Starfleet command, with the request for instructions on how to proceed::
CTO Cmdr Heller says:
::Nods as he brings the ship to red alert.::  CO:  At red alert.  It looks like the signatures are a few weeks old at this point, around the time of the attack on Earth, not picking up anything newer as of yet.
CO Capt Gomes says:
CTO: That is good to hear. But with the Vroa we cannot be too careful. Keep the red alert until we make sure there are no Vroa vessels in the system.
CTO Cmdr Heller says:
CO:  Understood.
SO Lt Rose says:
::Logged on, she scans the region.::  CO: Nothing specific as of yet.
OPS LtCmdr Pandora says:
CO: Captain, there is something odd about the communications in this sector.. As I said, it's quiet.. But it's actually quieter than I would expect it to be, what with a relatively advanced population nearby.
CO Capt Gomes says:
SO: Look into the communications, or lack of. It may mean something
SO Lt Rose says:
:: nods and uses OPS data and the sensors::
CO Capt Gomes says:
OPS: Is the hailing channel open?
OPS LtCmdr Pandora says:
::Shakes head:: CO: Negative, but we have received a response to the signal I sent... We are to use our own discretion in handling the situation, while being mindful of the prime directive in the presence of an advanced population.
CO Capt Gomes says:
OPS: I believe as long as we don't emit radio waves we should be fine. Unless Lt Rose finds they are more advanced than we suspected.
OPS LtCmdr Pandora says:
::Nods:: CO: I would tend to agree.
SO Lt Rose says:
CO:  Captain, there are the usual signals that tend to roam around, but Commander Pandora is correct, the constant steady stream one would expect from what we have been told is missing.  No obvious reason why other then they are not sending
CTO Cmdr Heller says:
CO:  I'm picking up evidance of a battle, debris, weapons signaters etc.  All dating around the time of the attack on Earth, as we are moving farther in am picking up more and more.
CO Capt Gomes says:
SO: How long till we drop from warp?
SO Lt Rose says:
CO:  The warp signatures are leading inward.
CO Capt Gomes says:
CTO: And still no signs of a functioning vessel?
SO Lt Rose says:
CO:  We are about ten minutes from the inhabited planet...
SO Lt Rose says:
CO:  I am picking up heavy debris around the 5th world.
CTO Cmdr Heller says:
CO:  Nothing I've been able to pick up as of yet.
CO Capt Gomes says:
::nods slowly at Rose:: All: Perhaps there are survivors, on the panet.
SO Lt Rose says:
CO: Sensors are picking up a large mass in a decaying orbit around the planet. :: taps a button to put it up on screen.::
CO Capt Gomes says:
SO: Can you estimate a time for impact on the surface?

ACTION:  On the screen appears the badly damaged remains of the USS Nevsky.

SO Lt Rose says:
CO:  No life signs....
CO Capt Gomes says:
::Nods slowly to the question she was afraid to ask:: CTO: If there are no signs of an active Vroa vessel in the system, stand down red alert.
SO Lt Rose says:
CO:  It will hit the atmosphere in approximately three weeks.
CO Capt Gomes says:
SO: Estimated damage?
SO Lt Rose says:
CO: I doubt we could repair it.  Hull breaches all over the ship.  No power online.  We would need a team to go over to assess how bad.
CO Capt Gomes says:
::Sad smile on her face as she realizes the mis communication:: SO: Damage to the planet?
SO Lt Rose says:
CO:  Captain... the energy signature one would expect is also missing from this world.  There also seems to be a discrepancy in the population.  It is much less than last recorded or one would expect.
CO Capt Gomes says:
SO: Scan for Vroan life signs.
OPS LtCmdr Pandora says:
::Checks communications again, trying to see about intra-planetary communications::

ACTION: The ship settles into a high orbit around the planet.

CTO Cmdr Heller says:
CO:  Standing down red alert.  ::Looks over the latest scans.::  I’m picking up mostly federation debris, no sign of any Vroan.
SO Lt Rose says:
::Using the new technology they had she scans the area::
CO Capt Gomes says:
CTO: Could they have caused the decrease in population numbers?
OPS LtCmdr Pandora says:
CO: Detecting some intra-planetary communications, but not much.. Not as much as expected. Perhaps whatever happened has caused their communications to be shut down.. Or they utilize land based communication methods, rather than wireless.
SO Lt Rose says:
CO:  Captain, sensors are reading high levels of radiation in the atmosphere. I would place it around forty years ago.
CO Capt Gomes says:
OPS: According to the records they are right at the edge where they might have stopped using radio and turned into digital cable systems. But a lower population makes no sense.
SO Lt Rose says:
CO:  Permission to send down a probe to get below the cloud cover for a better visual.
CO Capt Gomes says:
SO: We will give some locals a glimpse of a UFO. But given the situation ... granted. Deploy it over an uninhabited area for now.
CTO Cmdr Heller says:
CO:  It’s possible they could have but not enough information yet to figure that out.  I am picking up federation signals on the planet, looks like 2 shuttles, located in one of the larger mountain ranges.
SO Lt Rose says:
::Nods and contacts engineering to prepare a Class III probe::
OPS LtCmdr Pandora says:
::Glances at Heller for a moment before checking for any automated distress signals they may be trying to send::
CO Capt Gomes says:
CTO: Prepare a team, take Rose and Pandora. Beam close to those shuttles, but hiden from any life signs.

ACTION:  The probe is soon launched and vanishes below the cloud layers.

Scenery:  On the screen, telemetry shows large cities... devastated by what appears to be war.  The damage appears decades old.  There are signs of small communities.

CO Capt Gomes says:
::Looks at her viewscreen:: All: So it seems they had a world war. For a change this doesn't look like it was the Vroa.
SO Lt Rose says:
::Quietly to no one::  Apparently advanced communication was not the only level they were at.
CTO Cmdr Heller says:
CO:  Understood.  ::Turns his console over to Lt. James then looks at Rose and Pandora.::  OPS/SO:  Let’s get to transporter room one.
CO Capt Gomes says:
CTO: Keep me informed.
OPS LtCmdr Pandora says:
::Turns his console over to Clark before joining Heller and Rose::
SO Lt Rose says:
::Grabs a science kit from the cabinet and heads for the lift.::
SO Lt Rose says:
::Looks at Max::
CTO Cmdr Heller says:
::Enters the lift with the others and orders it to the transporter room.::
SO Lt Rose says:
::As the lift stops and the doors slide open, she waits for Max to exit before following.::
CTO Cmdr Heller says:
::Steps out from the lift heading for the transporter room, stopping by the weapons locker on their way.::
SO Lt Rose says:
::Heading into the transporter room, she gives the tech the coordinates.::
OPS LtCmdr Pandora says:
::Follows Heller and Rose out of the lift and heads towards the transporter room::

CO Capt Gomes says:
::Sits back, with a deep breath::
CTO Cmdr Heller says:
::Opens the locker and considers taking a rifle but decides against it, too conspicuous if they ran into any locals and grabs a pistol, tricorder, and Vroa detecting headset, before heading into the transporter room stepping up onto the padd.::
OPS LtCmdr Pandora says:
::In the transporter room, steps over to the supplies locker to grab a tricorder, hand phaser, binoculars and mountaineering gear, just in case::
CTO Cmdr Heller says:
::Glances at the other two.::  OPS/SO:  Ready?
SO Lt Rose says:
CTO/OPS:  Wait...

ACTION:  A medical doctor rushes into the transporter room with a hypo in hand.

OPS LtCmdr Pandora says:
::Steps onto the pad and nods at the CTO::
SO Lt Rose says:
CTO/OPS:  Radiation poisoning... :Shifts slightly so the doctor can give her the injection.::
CTO Cmdr Heller says:
::Nods and waits for the doctor to give them all injections.::
CTO Cmdr Heller says:
::As everyone gets their shots he looks over at the transport chief.::  TC:  Energize.

ACTION:  As the doctor steps away from the padd, the transporter chief activates the transporter...
