USS Seleya - Stardate 9903.07

Host Cheryl says:
Seleya was investigating the disappearance of the freighter Caravel, in the vicinity of a newly-developed spatial rift.  Seleya passed into the rift, 3000 years into the future, recovered the destroyed remains of the freighter, recovered the Caravel crew from an alien vessel which was most co-operative in assisting Seleya, after a slight altercation

Host Cheryl says:
initially; Seleya has returned to their own time, sealed the rift with the assistance of the alien vessel on the other side.   Caravel crew is aboard, in Sickbay.  It appears they picked up a nasty bug of some sort in their adventure on the other side, however.

CIV_Vn’dor says:
OPS: How are our warning buoys?  They still operational after our return?

CE_Bolitho says:
::arrives in engineering::

SO_D`kar says:
::walks onto bridge and takes Science 2 ::

MO_Biishe says:
::running samples through SF database for a comparison::

CMO-Starr says:
MO: It looks like this is a virus that is attacking the RNA of the cell, take a look and tell me what you think ::moves aside::

OPS_Urk says:
Vn’dor: Looks like they're working fine.

CE_Bolitho says:
::grabs engineering tricorder and heads for the cargo bay::

FCOLorien says:
::eyelids close involuntarily, her body straightens up by sheer reflexes. looks around hoping nobody noticed::

SO_D`kar says:
::continues the analysis of the strand that his counterpart has begun ::

MO_Biishe says:
::takes a look adjusting for her eyes::

XO_Pang says:
::transmits to SFC : SFC Ops:.... we are not able as yet to call things safe ... we have a bad virus aboard ... I trust our personnel on the Poseidon are safe?

CMO-Starr says:
::waits for the MO to take a look, hoping she is wrong::

MO_Biishe says:
CMO:  I agree

OPS_Urk says:
::having slaved TAC console to OPS checks for anomalies::

CMO-Starr says:
MO; God what have we got here?  This is unlike anything I have ever seen before.  Did the database come up with anything?

MO_Biishe says:
::looks at CMO with a frown::

Host Cheryl says:
ACTION:  The Caravel crew are showing signs of illness; fever, sweating, delirium....

CIV_Vn’dor says:
OPS:  Are you performing that internal scan of the ship Cmdr. Pang wanted?  How has it turned out so far?

CE_Bolitho says:
::arrives in cargo bay and begins scanning the remains of the Caravel::

XO_Pang says:
<SF Ops>: Pang ..... I need to check ... be right back  ::shuts down the link::

XO_Pang says:
::bangs fist on table::

CMO-Starr says:
::looks over at a patient and begins to see red lines running through their skin::

MO_Biishe says:
::sighs::  CMO: I am still running it.

OPS_Urk says:
Vn’dor: nothing unusual yet.

CIV_Vn’dor says:
OPS: Acknowledged

FCOLorien says:
::reassured after assessing the bridge crew, returns to do what she was doing before... trying to stay awake::

CMO-Starr says:
MO: Look over there at that patient, it looks like they are starting to bleed out ::points::

SO_D`kar says:
OPS: Could I have access to the historical database ?

XO_Pang says:
*OPS*  They closed the link ,.,, please try to re-establish

CIV_Vn’dor says:
FCO: I want a little more distance between us and the warning buoys... back us off some please.

FCOLorien says:
::looks at CIV sideways:: CIV: Yes.... sir

MO_Biishe says:
::gets up to assist the patient and do another scan::

CE_Bolitho says:
::frowning continues to scan the debris::

CMO-Starr says:
*XO*: Maam, do you have a moment, I need you on a secure comm. channel?

OPS_Urk says:
*XO* aye sir :: works on Comm::

MO_Biishe says:
<computer> MO:  Comparison analysis completed.

XO_Pang says:
*CMO* Go ahead

FCOLorien says:
::does as directed, happy to have somebody help her stay awake::

SO_D`kar says:
::turns back to his analysis ::

MO_Biishe says:
::checks results with a frown::

OPS_Urk says:
COMM:SFC: SFC, this is the Seleya.

CE_Bolitho says:
*Bolitho to Pang*

CMO-Starr says:
*XO*: Kay Lee, I don't know what we have here, but the patients are starting to show signs of cell degradation and are starting to bleed out.  Maam, I can't help them unless we uncover something in the med database.

MO_Biishe says:
CMO:  It looks like there is nothing to compare it with in the SF's current database.

SO_D`kar says:
::thinks high Frequency oscillations ..massive gravitation effects, high gamma radiation ::

XO_Pang says:
*CEO* Urgent?  If not please route to Lt Vn'dor - he has the bridge

Host Cheryl says:
<SFC>  COMM:  Seleya:  Communication received.  Status report?

CMO-Starr says:
*XO*: The MO just confirmed, there is nothing like it in the database.

XO_Pang says:
*CMO* Can I get Science to assist you?

OPS_Urk says:
*XO* We have SFC on Comm again, routing to RR.

SO_D`kar says:
*CMO* Are the patients showing any effects of high gamma radiation exposure ?

Host Cheryl says:
ACTION:  One of the Caravel patients suddenly goes into convulsions.

XO_Pang says:
*OPS* Thankyou

CMO-Starr says:
*XO*: Maam, I don't think science can help on this one.  Ask them to cross reference though, just in case.  I will send the info to their console.

MO_Biishe says:
::starts running tests to discover the exact course of the viral effects::

FCOLorien says:
::wonders why she had to stay through the graveyard shift and now the day shift... while wondering she starts checking her systems, when was the last time she did it?::

CMO-Starr says:
::hears the patient and runs to her side::

CE_Bolitho says:
*Civ * Lt. I'm getting some strange reading down here on the debris of the Caravel, its like the freighters structural integrity was eaten away!

XO_Pang says:
*CMO* will do - by the way Lt. Vn'dor has bridge control just now

MO_Biishe says:
::assists CMO with the patient::

CMO-Starr says:
*XO*: I have an emergency here. Starr out.

CIV_Vn’dor says:
*CEO*: Eaten away by what?

XO_Pang says:
*Vn'dor': the CMO needs some help from science .... can you allocate someone good to assist?

OPS_Urk says:
SO: you got any thing on LRS?

CMO-Starr says:
MO: Sedate her and lets take another sample of her blood and DNA.

CMO-Starr says:
::begins the skin scraping while the MO takes the blood::

CIV_Vn’dor says:
*XO*: Aye ma'am... I think I have someone in mind

CE_Bolitho says:
*Civ* that’s what I'm trying to find out, its like nothing I have ever seen before

Host Cheryl says:
<Caravel CO>  ::grasps at Starr, gasping, and expires::

SO_D`kar says:
Urk: A few freighters going about normal trade routes ,

MO_Biishe says:
::nods and proceeds::

XO_Pang says:
::looks at the SF Lt on screen:: COMM: SFOps ... information or no information on the Poseidon please?

CIV_Vn’dor says:
SO_D'kar:  The CMO needs some assistance from science, would you please assist her anyway she asks?

XO_Pang says:
<COMM>SFOps: Pang:  Classified Sir ... sorry!

CMO-Starr says:
*XO*: Maam, the Captain of the Caravel just expired. Starr out.

OPS_Urk says:
::nods to SO and tracts vessels with targeting scanners for practice::

SO_D`kar says:
Civ: Surely

CIV_Vn’dor says:
*CEO*: Speculations LT?

SO_D`kar says:
*CMO* Doctor , what do you need ?

CMO-Starr says:
MO: Lets compare these with the arrival of the Captain ::covers his body with a sheet::

FCOLorien says:
::turns to look at the CIV, about to ask something... then decides it's better to stay quiet for a while, the man seems busy::

XO_Pang says:
Comm:SFOps: Thank you! ::closes down::

OPS_Urk says:
::makes adjustments to targeting scanners::

MO_Biishe says:
CMO:  shall I proceed with a detailed autopsy of the body?

CE_Bolitho says:
*Civ* Its nothing like the weapons we encountered on the other side, so I'm checking all possible aspects. I hope to have more for you when I have completed my scan

XO_Pang says:
::gets up steaming angry and walks over to the replicator:: *CMO* my regrets ....

CMO-Starr says:
*SO*: I need to cross check our medical files with anything in SF database that references bleeding out and cell degradation.

Host Cheryl says:
ACTION:  The covering on the body hides the fact that a small creature exits from the mouth of the corpse, and slithers its way down the side of the biobed

CIV_Vn’dor says:
*CEO*: Acknowledged... I leave you to it then

XO_Pang says:
::gulps down hot tea, burning her mouth:: Ouch!

SO_D`kar says:
*CMO* did you hear my last about high Levels of Gamma Radiation Exposure ?

CMO-Starr says:
MO: No, I don't want it exposed to the air.  Put the body is stasis until we can get to a space dock.  This thing may go air borne.

OPS_Urk says:
::turns off targeting scanners and checks that weapons systems are not hot::

CE_Bolitho says:
*Civ* Aye Sir!

CE_Bolitho says:
::continues to scan::

FCOLorien says:
::decides something must be done in order to keep conscious, her fingers tap her console... a sly grin comes to her lips::

XO_Pang says:
::tries to get hold of her temper ... breathes deeply::

MO_Biishe says:
::nods and places the body in a stasis field::

CIV_Vn’dor says:
FCO:  You look a little tired...

OPS_Urk says:
::checks internal scans and still finds nothing out of the ordinary

XO_Pang says:
::walks towards the door to the bridge .... considers::

OPS_Urk says:
<::.

CIV_Vn’dor says:
FCO: Snap to it miss, we can't afford you falling asleep on us

CMO-Starr says:
*SO*: sorry could you repeat please?

FCOLorien says:
::startled as the ship starts the routine she just programmed:: CIV: Me? No, sir! I always work two shifts in a row

XO_Pang says:
::exits the Ready Room to the bridge: Vn'dor: Report please

SO_D`kar says:
*CMO* I show high levels of Gamma Radiation from the event , that may have cause problems

CMO-Starr says:
MO: Check the next patient and let's see how far their cell destruction has gone.

FCOLorien says:
::looks steadily at the Bajoran, hopes she didn't programmed the rolls to be too fast... steals a glance at the main viewer::

MO_Biishe says:
::checking on each patient and scanning results.  Running a comparison check.::

CMO-Starr says:
*SO*: This is an organic organism of some kind.  I would think that gamma radiation would have killed a biological entity.

CIV_Vn’dor says:
::gets up from chair::  XO:  Ma'am, the CEO seems to think the hull of the Caravel was eaten away by some unknown substance.  He’s continuing his scans

XO_Pang says:
Vn'dor: Thankyou .... any suggestions about that as an engineer yourself? ::resumes the big chair::

SO_D`kar says:
*CMO* there are a few types that seem to thrive on it , and in fact also act as parasites on their hosts

OPS_Urk says:
XO: The internal scans don't show anything unusual.

FCOLorien says:
::returns her attention to the console and the main viewer... the Seleya is rolling over, gracefully and steadily, the whirlpool of stars clearly visible in the screen::

CIV_Vn’dor says:
XO: I'm not sure ma'am, but if you like I could assist Mr Bolitho in the investigation.

CMO-Starr says:
*SO*: Do you have any suggestions as to how, if this is true, to kill such a parasite without killing the host?

MO_Biishe says:
CMO:  what if the radiation altered something already known?

Host Cheryl says:
ACTION:  Suddenly, the stasis fields in the Sickbay fall inoperative

CIV_Vn’dor says:
XO: I've never had any experience with something that could eat away the hull of a ship before

XO_Pang says:
Vn'dor: Please do .... I have a gut feeling there is something weird about the fact that the freighter was destroyed

SO_D`kar says:
*CMO* I would venture that it depends on the entity

MO_Biishe says:
CMO: the stasis field is down?

FCOLorien says:
self: five more to the left... ::programs the console to start rolling to the right::

CMO-Starr says:
MO: Good idea, that might be the case here.
*SO*: did you hear what my MO just said?

MO_Biishe says:
Returns to table and tries to reinitiate it::

XO_Pang says:
OPS:  All ok?  How are internal sensor comparisons going?

CIV_Vn’dor says:
XO: Aye ma'am, I'll take your leave then.   ::waits for a nod::

Host Cheryl says:
ACTION:  Four more Caravel patients go into convulsions...

XO_Pang says:
::nods::

SO_D`kar says:
*CMO* I did

CMO-Starr says:
MO: The stasis field is down? How did that happen?

OPS_Urk says:
XO: no deviations from the norm.

FCOLorien says:
::slows the rolls, levels the Seleya off, starts rolling it to the right and mutters:: there you go girl...

MO_Biishe says:
::looks around helpless and hurries to the nearest patient::

SO_D`kar says:
*XO* we have a possibly dangerous Med emergency down in Sickbay , recommend Red alert

CIV_Vn’dor says:
::turns and heads for the TL::

CMO-Starr says:
::initiates backup::

XO_Pang says:
OPS: You are sure that sensors show no difference in the life on this ship from before we entered the rift?

OPS_Urk says:
::still feels odd being on this shift::

Host Cheryl says:
ACTION:  The critter gets into one of the environmental control panels, enters the ductwork of the ship

MO_Biishe says:
CMO:  they are going critical at an accelerated rate here.

XO_Pang says:
*SO* Acknowledged

CMO-Starr says:
::goes to another patient and watches as they die also, places them in stasis field::

SO_D`kar says:
OPS: Can you ascertain the cause of the failure down there ?

XO_Pang says:
*Engineering/Ops* We need sickbay under maximum isolation .... get to it!

CMO-Starr says:
MO: I know, but we have no power to stop it ::frowns::

OPS_Urk says:
::double checks the readings:: XO: nothing shows different on the scanners ma’am. ::Gulps::

CIV_Vn’dor says:
::arrives in the Cargo Hold::

CIV_Vn’dor says:
CEO:  May I give you an extra hand here Chief?

MO_Biishe says:
::watches the patient dies.  She watches her in confusion for a moment::

XO_Pang says:
*CMO* Is sickbay still isolated Commander?  I am getting some funny readings up here

CE_Bolitho says:
::relays the XO's order through to Engineering, to set up a forcefield around the sickbay::

SO_D`kar says:
::considers::  Computer  Identify all life forms on this vessel , not part of this crew

FCOLorien says:
::imagines the ship to be a giant cocktail... shakes the crew and critters well, and thanks the heavens for the IDF field::

OPS_Urk says:
::tries to reactive stasis fields and bioforce fields around SB::

Host Cheryl says:
ACTION:  Power to sickbay suddenly begins fluctuating

CMO-Starr says:
*XO*: Maam, the stasis field went down for a moment but it has been reinitiated.  The containment field around sickbay should still be intact.

CE_Bolitho says:
Civ: By all means Lt. ::hand him a tricorder::

SO_D`kar says:
<computer> SO : Working

MO_Biishe says:
::looks around at the flickering lights::

XO_Pang says:
FCO: Watch it .... you are getting too close to that buoy .... perhaps you can keep yourself busy with external scans ....

OPS_Urk says:
::notes power fluctuations in sickbay::

CMO-Starr says:
*XO*: Ut oh, the containment field is now wavering, Kay Lee, are you sure nothing else came aboard the Seleya?

CIV_Vn’dor says:
::takes the tricorder and begins scanning the wreckage::

OPS_Urk says:
*EO* What's with the power in SB?

MO_Biishe says:
CEO:  we are having problems here.  We need the this room secured.

Host Cheryl says:
ACTION:  Sickbay suddenly experiences total power outage

XO_Pang says:
*CMO* Is there any chance of anything having got out? Gas? parasite? anything?

SO_D`kar says:
<Computer> SO : I am unable to comply at this time

CMO-Starr says:
*XO*: We are having a major power problem in sickbay.

OPS_Urk says:
::reroutes power to SB through alternate conduits::

FCOLorien says:
::looks at XO sideways:: XO: Yes sir ::dutifully::

CE_Bolitho says:
*MO* problems what problems?

XO_Pang says:
*Shipwide* Red Alert:  We have a dangerous situation in sickbay ....

CMO-Starr says:
*XO*: Not that we are aware of Kay Lee, but I would suggest internal scans to be sure.

OPS_Urk says:
XO: something is killing power conduits

MO_Biishe says:
CEO:  How about no lights?

CIV_Vn’dor says:
::looks up at the flashing red lights::  Himself: Great.

OPS_Urk says:
Sounds Red Alert::

XO_Pang says:
*CMO* Ops has been scanning continually ... and has found nothing

CE_Bolitho says:
*OPS* Tell me what’s going on, I'm down in the cargo bay!

FCOLorien says:
::mutters something between her teeth, they are at a perfect distance from the buoys... maybe XO is feeling dizzy::

XO_Pang says:
::wonders what the heck is going on::

SO_D`kar says:
*CMO, XO * I have tried to run internal Ships scans and the computer has said it is not able to comply

CMO-Starr says:
*XO*: Kay Lee, something has to be causing this power problem!

XO_Pang says:
::raises eyebrow at the FCO - her hearing is pretty good::

CMO-Starr says:
::oh great, now something is loose and we can't trace it::

XO_Pang says:
*CMO* Engineering and Ops are working on it ....

Host Cheryl says:
ACTION:  In all the confusion, three more creatures depart their hosts

CE_Bolitho says:
Civ: something tells me I have to go to Engineering, you ok here?

MO_Biishe says:
<computer> emergency back up systems on line please.

FCOLorien says:
::could care less about the murderous glare from the XO::

OPS_Urk says:
*CEO* lost main power to SB I have re-routed power through auxiliary conduits.

CIV_Vn’dor says:
CEO:  Sure thing!!  You go ahead!!

CMO-Starr says:
*XO*: Aye Maam, hope they find whatever it is before we all ...well never mind.

OPS_Urk says:
*CEO*/XO: we have 28% power to SB

CE_Bolitho says:
::heads for engineering at a dead run::

MO_Biishe says:
::looks at CMO in concern::

CMO-Starr says:
MO: How many are left Aurora?

CE_Bolitho says:
*OPS/MO* en route to engineering hang on....

CIV_Vn’dor says:
::continues his scans::

XO_Pang says:
SO: Have you turned up anything which can explain what is going on down there?

OPS_Urk says:
::notes that backup generators came on with red alert::

SO_D`kar says:
XO: I want permission to go below and check the sensor couplings

MO_Biishe says:
CMO:  five

XO_Pang says:
SO: Do it!  I will slave science to my console

CMO-Starr says:
::sees a small woman turning red from the inside out::

SO_D`kar says:
XO: :Nods ::

OPS_Urk says:
XO/SO: bioforce fields are holding but fluctuating

CIV_Vn’dor says:
::notices the hull seems to be eaten by a parasite of some kind::

CE_Bolitho says:
::arrives in engineering, gets status report on power in sickbay::

XO_Pang says:
::crosslinks SCI1 to continue D'kar's research::

SO_D`kar says:
::goes down the hatch next to the fwd viewscreen ::

CMO-Starr says:
MO ::points:: I think she is next, get scanners on her now! and put her in stasis!

MO_Biishe says:
::Nods and proceeds::

FCOLorien says:
::decides it is time to have fun with... what? yawns::

XO_Pang says:
FCO: May I get you something from the replicator?  You look a little tired!

OPS_Urk says:
Vn’dor: what if we run a low level power surge through the EPS and try to shock what ever is in there?

CE_Bolitho says:
::notes auxiliary power on line in sickbay::

FCOLorien says:
::turns to look at XO:: XO: I thought we weren't supposed to eat nor drink in the bridge, madam

CIV_Vn’dor says:
*XO*: Ma'am it seems the hull of the Caravel was eaten by some space born parasite

SO_D`kar says:
::starts checking the connector couplings and notes that some are apart ::

Host Cheryl says:
ACTION:  The three new parasites follow the path of the first one, entering various conduits throughout the ship

XO_Pang says:
FCO: Go get something to wake yourself up ... you need it

CE_Bolitho says:
::runs diagnostic scans on the power circuits surrounding sickbay::

MO_Biishe says:
::keeps close eye on the patient::

XO_Pang says:
*Vn'dor*  Not our bear friends ..... can you get a temporal signature from the damage?

FCOLorien says:
::stands and looks around to see who is going to take FC:: XO: Well... I suppose I could use something.

OPS_Urk says:
::raises eyebrows at conversation between XO and FCO and slightly shakes head::

SO_D`kar says:
::reconnects  the couplings ::*XO* Try  an internal sweep now

CMO-Starr says:
::sees another one turning red and immediately puts that one in stasis with biobed monitoring the vitals::

XO_Pang says:
OPS: Are the forcefields around sickbay intact now?

Host Cheryl says:
ACTION:  For the moment, the remaining patients seem stabilized

FCOLorien says:
::wonders fleetingly about leaving her station during red alert, but decides to take her chance while a young crewman takes the console::

CIV_Vn’dor says:
*XO*: No ma'am, definitely not them unless they have a parasitic weapon of some kind.  I'll run a temporal scan now

MO_Biishe says:
::adds data from scan to computer::

CE_Bolitho says:
*XO/MO*  It seems the power circuits surrounding sickbay were severed, by what I don’t know . I will be taking a team into repair and have a look

MO_Biishe says:
CMO:  they seem to be stabilised for the moment.  But I have not a clue to what permitted this.

FCOLorien says:
::goes out to the nearest replicator in a corridor, looks around and lets herself fall against the wall and stretches....::

XO_Pang says:
*CEO*: Thank you Lt

OPS_Urk says:
::redirects comment to XO and CE:: XO/*CE* I'm going to run a power surge through the EPS, see if we can "shock" whatever it is.

CMO-Starr says:
*CEO*: Understood, just keep my power to sickbay up and running or we may all not live to see tomorrow!

XO_Pang says:
OPS: worth a try certainly

OPS_Urk says:
::initiates a slight power surge, specifically to SB conduits::

CIV_Vn’dor says:
::not surprised by the return on the tricorder::  *XO*:  Affirmative ma'am... the temporal signature is from the future.  I think maybe some space-borne parasite that eats the hull to survive

CE_Bolitho says:
::heads up for deck 12 :: *CMO* will certainly do my best Ma'am

CMO-Starr says:
MO: I don't understand this, this virus or whatever it is, is acting as if it is intelligent!

XO_Pang says:
OPS: Take all non-essential systems to backup .... sickbay has priority, with the engineering/science analysis as our next priority

SO_D`kar says:
*XO* Pang , I have reconnected some couplings for the internal sensors , try them now

MO_Biishe says:
CMO:  something deliberately created in the future for some purpose?

OPS_Urk says:
XO: Done:: terminates all non essential programs::

CE_Bolitho says:
*OPS* Ok got that let me know before we enter the Jefferies tubes

CIV_Vn’dor says:
::scans to see what ingredients are missing from the hull::

CMO-Starr says:
*XO*: I know this sounds strange, but we may have an intelligent critter in the virus we have detected.

FCOLorien says:
::gets a cap of extra strong coffee, extra hot and gulps it down:: auggggg ::fans her tongue::

XO_Pang says:
*Vn'dor*  Liaise with our science officer ... he is elsewhere in the ship ..... we may need his cooking skills to neutralise things

Host Cheryl says:
ACTION:  Several other decks comm in, reporting power fluctuations

CMO-Starr says:
MO: Maybe not created, but evolved?

OPS_Urk says:
::hears SO comments and starts internal scans again::

CE_Bolitho says:
::designates other engineering teams to handle the power fluctuation on the other decks::

OPS_Urk says:
*CE* power surge started

CIV_Vn’dor says:
*XO*: Aye ma'am

XO_Pang says:
*SO* We have a parasitic thing eating at the wreckage of the Caravel .... can you assist Lt. Vn'dor in finding something to neutralise it ... it could be the Seleya next

MO_Biishe says:
CMO:  well many things are continuously evolving, but I would think this is something known in the future.  A pity we could not exchange medical knowledge.

SO_D`kar says:
*XO* Aye , sir

FCOLorien says:
::places the cup back in the replicator for recycling and tries to straighten her crumpled uniform::

CE_Bolitho says:
*OPS* monitoring surge

CMO-Starr says:
MO: They didn't give us a chance to talk, much less get that kind of information ::very perplexed::

SO_D`kar says:
*Vn’dor* I will meet you at the wreckage with a tricorder

XO_Pang says:
::thinks as hard as she can .... has no answers::

CE_Bolitho says:
*OPS* can you see if the power surge found anything?

CIV_Vn’dor says:
*SO*: I've scanned the make up of the hull of the Caravel.  These parasites seem to have a hunger for Titanium... any ideas on how we might be able to fight these things?

CMO-Starr says:
*CEO*: Have you tried gassing the thing?

OPS_Urk says:
*CE* no, what ever it is must have moved off the conduits.

SO_D`kar says:
::leaves the main computer storage ::

MO_Biishe says:
CMO:  You don't suppose this was deliberate do you?

FCOLorien says:
::tugs her jacket... someday she'll make captain and everyone will think that's chic::

Host Cheryl says:
ACTION:  Sensors indicate a weakening of the hull structure Decks 7-8

CMO-Starr says:
MO: Yes I am beginning to believe it is Aurora.  They knew what they did, and I wonder if the rift is truly closed or are they just waiting to come to our side and take over!

CE_Bolitho says:
*CMO* Ma'am my main concern is getting the sickbay up and running?

SO_D`kar says:
*Vn’dor* There were only three parasites know to attack titanium, Ask the XO to let you look at the files

CE_Bolitho says:
::climbs into the jefferies tube and heads for the nearest EPS conduit::

FCOLorien says:
::enters the bridge again, relieves the young crewman and retakes her post, looking as awaken as... somebody who hasn't slept in two days::

MO_Biishe says:
CMO:  I hope this is just paranoid thinking.  However, at the moment I feel helpless until we can get our hands on something more definite.

CIV_Vn’dor says:
::wonders what kind of a SO we have here::

OPS_Urk says:
XO: weakening of hull between decks 7 and 8

SO_D`kar says:
::has fallen as the ladder he was climbing down parted at a rung ::

OPS_Urk says:
*CE* we need to reinforce the SIF

XO_Pang says:
OPS: forcefields in place? what caused that?

CE_Bolitho says:
:diagnosing the EPS conduit with tricorder although its quite clear what happened::

CMO-Starr says:
CMO: My feelings exactly.  My gut tells me to put the rest of these patients in stasis, do you concur?

OPS_Urk says:
*CE*: Hull is weakening between decks 7 and 8

MO_Biishe says:
::nods::

CE_Bolitho says:
*OPS* ok hang on

XO_Pang says:
*Engineering/Science* It appears that we have caught the disease from the Caravel ... we need answers fast ......

CIV_Vn’dor says:
Computer: What known parasites eat Tritanium that could survive hypothetically for another 3000 years?

SO_D`kar says:
::limps down a hall to the TL ::

CMO-Starr says:
MO: Lets do it ::starts at one end while the MO starts at the other::

SO_D`kar says:
*XO* I am on my way to the wreckage now

OPS_Urk says:
::diverts SIF integrity grid::

CE_Bolitho says:
*EO* Chorn reroute all non essential power to the SI

MO_Biishe says:
::looks at the face of each patient as she proceeds and shakes her head in sorrow.::

XO_Pang says:
*SO* Good ...... this now becomes - a little urgent

FCOLorien says:
::projects the trajectory course, makes sure that they are at a safe distance of the buoys, least the CIV or the XO want to complain again::

Host Cheryl says:
<Computer>  Such a projection would be merely an hypothesis.  All three species could have so developed.

SO_D`kar says:
*XO* I know I just fell about 7 feet

CMO-Starr says:
::initiates the stasis fields and hopes some of them survive::

XO_Pang says:
FCO: Are you feeling any better? *SO* Are you hurt?

CE_Bolitho says:
::notes the same comparison between the Caravel debris and the EPS conduits outside sickbay::

FCOLorien says:
XO: Yes, thank you ma'am ::blinks::

CIV_Vn’dor says:
::I hate these things:: Computer: What would be the physical makeup of a creature that devours titanium?

SO_D`kar says:
*Vn’dor* Don’t forget it also had to survive high levels of Gamma Radiation exposure

CMO-Starr says:
*XO*: Maam, we have now placed the rest of the crew of the Caravel in stasis.  We hope this will save their lives until we can find out what is attacking them and the ship.

XO_Pang says:
*CMO* There may be a tie up between your patients and what is damaging our hull .... have you found anything at all to explain the Caravel deaths?

SO_D`kar says:
*XO* I shall Live

CIV_Vn’dor says:
*SO*: It did?  I had no idea that happened.  ::feels out of touch with the rest of the ship::

CE_Bolitho says:
*Civ* Lt. any idea what these critters are made up off?

CMO-Starr says:
*XO*: No Maam, other than whatever has caused this is now immobilised in the stasis fields.

FCOLorien says:
::yawns again, but inwardly... if they are all going to die, couldn't she sleep so as to die rested?::

CE_Bolitho says:
::begins repairing the EPS conduit outside sickbay::

Host Cheryl says:
ACTION:  SO modifications provide no more success in locating the creatures

FCOLorien says:
::stifles a giggle and goes back to work::

XO_Pang says:
*Shipwide*  All hands:  Please be alert .... we believe we may have some sort of parasite aboard - not only in sickbay ..... keep your eyes open

MO_Biishe says:
CMO:  If we are looking at something that is attacking the hull, perhaps we should be looking at something that requires a host?

CIV_Vn’dor says:
*CEO*: None yet, I have the computer working on it.  What do you think could eat titanium and survive high levels of Gamma radiation?  I'm clueless at this point

SO_D`kar says:
::enters area where wreckage is stored ::

FCOLorien says:
::keep your eyes open... easy for the XO to say...::

OPS_Urk says:
::works on TAC readouts with SO's modifications to internal sensors::

CMO-Starr says:
CMO: Agreed, but what would you suggest as a host?  The only new thing aboard that we are aware of is the crew of the Caravel.

SO_D`kar says:
::starts taking sweeps with a tricorder ::

CIV_Vn’dor says:
::hears announcement then starts looking around the floor::

OPS_Urk says:
*SO*: those modification didn't help

CMO-Starr says:
MO; And we have detected nothing in them.

CE_Bolitho says:
*Civ* Hmmmm no idea, when it could be something from our future :: glances nervously around the Jefferies tube for the bugs::

CIV_Vn’dor says:
::grabs a metal bar and holds it in the air::

SO_D`kar says:
*OPS* I am away from the Main Computer storage facility right now

MO_Biishe says:
CMO:  perhaps we are scanning for the wrong thing.  This is after all from the future.

FCOLorien says:
::runs a level 3 diagnostic in her system, whatever is attacking the hull is not affecting her controls... yet at least::

OPS_Urk says:
*SO*: noted, will try something from here.

CMO-Starr says:
MO: Agreed, but how do we scan what our internal sensors haven't picked up?

CE_Bolitho says:
*Civ* its eating titanium right? what id we replicate a large qty of Titanium in the cargo bay and try draw them down there?

CIV_Vn’dor says:
::returns to scan the wreckage::

SO_D`kar says:
*Vn’dor* I am relaying what data I receive to your console
