FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::Holds for his shoulder procceding to TL.::

Nurse_Salia says:
::Looks down from her 2 meters and 100 Kg at the medical reports.::

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::At his console on the bridge, still trying to remember what just happened with Qwee.::

CSO Carika says:
::At science one trying to find any evidence for Qwee's presence on the ship.::

OPS_Ens_Landra says:
::Sits at his console, monitoring system status to make sure Qwee didn't do anything with them.::

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::Enters TL.::  Sickbay!

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::After some time TL's buzzing he exits it and heads to the Sickbay.::

OPS_Ens_Landra says:
::Looks around at Tanner.::  TO:  So, what does the tactical console have to say about your system status?

Host SM_Sergio says:
ACTION:  Warning. 5 minutes to warp core containment breach.

CSO Carika says:
All on the bridge:  We have a problem!

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::Stands in front of Sickbay fearing what will happen if he enters in, then collects all his strength and runs into the Nurse.::  Nurse_Salia:  Could you please fix my arm.  I need to go to Engineering now!

Nurse_Salia says:
::Turns around with an eyebrow raised.::  FCO:  My, my aren't we in a hurry!

Nurse_Salia says:
::Slowly moves to take a look at the FCO's shoulder.::  FCO:  What have you been doing?  This is  a mess!  And you should eat better too.  You look too thin.

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Before he can answer the OPS, he looks at his console by the CSO's message.::

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
Nurse_Salia:  Mess?  Yea, I know.  They ruined my new uniform.  ::He makes a sad face.::

OPS_Ens_Landra says:
::Looks back to his console abruptly.  Had he missed that warning light there?  How could he possibly have missed the warp core breach warning!::  Self:  You idiot!

Nurse_Salia says:
FCO:  Now, now do not worry.  Salia will take care of you.  ::Turns around and returns with a big needle.::

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
Nurse_Salia:  Eat?  What are you talking about?  I eat a lot.  One candy bar every one hour!

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::He notices the big needle and starts to shiver.::

Nurse_Salia says:
::Smiles.::  FCO:  Just kidding.  ::Picks up the dermal regenerator instead and starts working on the FCO's shoulder.::

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Looks up at the OPS.::  OPS:  What's with the warp core?  Can we do something about it?

OPS_Ens_Landra says:
::Checks his console to see what is causing the problem, hoping it's something that isn't too hard to fix.::

Nurse_Salia says:
FCO:  You should eat substantial food!  Meat.  ::Whispers.::  FCO:  And a glass of vodka every now and then.

Nurse_Salia says:
::Regenerates the FCO's skin.::

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
Nurse_Salia:  Meat?  I'll see what I can do with that suggestion, and about vodka.. better is to stay sharp eyed while on duty!  ::Smiles.::

Nurse_Salia says:
::Pats the FCO on the back, with a wee bit too much strength.::

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
OPS:  Mr. Landra? The warp core?

Nurse_Salia says:
FCO:  You are set to go, but return soon for Salia's nutritious supplements!

OPS_Ens_Landra says:
::Sees what the problem is way up there somewhere.  Points.::  CTO:  The injectors have frozen into place.  The reaction is taking place at too fast a pace.  We need to get them moving and closed again.

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
Nurse_Salia:  I'll make sure I do that!  ::Quickly stands up and runs through the doors to Engineering.::

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
OPS:  What can I do to help?  ::Still checking his console while he talks to the OPS.::

Nurse_Salia says:
::Sighs at the moving FCO.::  Self:  So young and always in a hurry.   ::Shakes her head and goes back to her duties, after taking a glass with an oddly transparent fluid in it from a locked medical closet.::

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::As soon the TL again stops buzzing, he exits the TL and runs to Engineering.::  ALL:  Okay what did you mess up this time!  Self:  Where are CEO's when you need them?

EO says:
::Frowns.::  FCO:  What do you want?  We are working on the problem.

OPS_Ens_Landra says:
::Taps his combadge to relay some data to the FCO, who just went down.::  *FCO*:  Landra to Seifer.  The problem with the core is in the injectors.  I need you to free them up again, and close them once they move again.

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::Looks at EO raising the left part of right eyebrow.::  EO:  Yes and why did the ship alert us for 5 minutes til warp core field breach?

EO says:
FCO:  Because they.. ::Points to the unconscious bodies on the floor, surrounded by security officers.:: .did this.  They were here to sabotage us for sure.

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
*OPS*:  Got that Landra.  I'll make sure to fix it now!  ::Mumbles.::  Self:  I'm not EO!

OPS_Ens_Landra says:
::Nods, as he monitors the progress in engineering from his console.::  CTO:  Let's just hope he can fix it.

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::Looks at the EO.::  EO:  Ignore them.  Now show me where are the core injectors.  We need to free them up!

CSO_Carika says:
::At her station trying to figure out a solution with the rest of them.::

EO says:
FCO:  Thank god for that.  But if you want to help.. ::Points to a console.::  I need you to start closing the matter/anti-matter supply valves.  Just in case we do fail to release the injectors.

CSO_Carika says:
OPS/CTO:  And I still find no traces of our officers.

EO says:
FCO:  And you think you can do it?  Free up the injectors, I mean?

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Nods and smiles very faintly at the OPS.::  OPS:  I already am keeping my fingers crossed.

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
EO:  If I can't do it, and if you can't do it, then we will see the explosion from first seats!

OPS_Ens_Landra says:
::Nods, keeping a close eye on his console, hoping for some red lights to get green again.::

EO says:
::Throws his hands in the air.::  FCO:  Fine, try all you like.  I'll handle the supply valves.

Host SM_Sergio says:
ACTION:  There's a power spike from the planet again.

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::Raises the left side of his left eyebrow and looks puzzled at the EO.::  EO:  Move aside!  ::Passes to the injectors with EO's tools examining how to free them.::

CSO_Carika says:
OPS/CTO:  The Nexus phenomenon on the planet seems to be active again.  The energy spike is expanding

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Checks his console too.::  CSO:  I see it.  Will we be affected by it?

Host SM_Sergio says:
::Moves to the console to start regulating the control valves into the warp core injectors.

CSO_Carika says:
CTO:  If we are caught by it, the Artemis will be destroyed and we will be taken inside.

Host SM_Sergio says:
ACTION:  On the Artemis bridge, a signal appears on the SRS screen.

OPS_Ens_Landra says:
::Moves to the helm station just in case they need to back off a bit.::

CSO_Carika says:
::Looks at the blink on her console and frowns.::

Host SM_Sergio says:
ACTION:  Federation Ship, bearing the identififcation marker of the USS Aldura.

CSO_Carika says:
All:  There's something ....

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Looks up at the CSO with a frightened face.::

CSO_Carika says:
OPS/CTO:  The ... Aldura is approaching?

CSO_Carika says:
::Blinks.::

Host SM_Sergio says:
ACTION:  A slightly dimmer version of the nexus event reaches the Artemis.

OPS_Ens_Landra says:
CSO:  Odd... ::Looks at the viewscreen, not seeing that much yet.::

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
CSO:  What is odd, ma'am?

Host SM_Sergio says:
ACTION:  On main Engineering, all the warnings disappear as the Warp core returns to normal operation.

CSO_Carika says:
OPS/CTO:  We were hit by the nexus just as the Aldura appeared on sensors.  I believe both phenomenons are related.

Host SM_Sergio says:
ACTION:  All the bodies of the Aldura crew shimmer out of existence, everywhere on the ship.

Host SM_Sergio says:
ACTION:  All the damage created by them disappears.

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::Looks at his tools, and throws them  at the floor standing up.::  Injectors:  Don't mess with the best!  ::Kicks injectors with his right leg as hard he can.::

EO says:
::Watches the readings return to normal.::  FCO:  What did you do?

OPS_Ens_Landra says:
::Sees the red lights on his own console return to green again, and moves over to it.::  CTO/CSO:  Seems the warpcore returned to normal..

CSO_Carika says:
::Nods punching some buttons.::

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Sees the bodies disappear and scratches his head as he looks back and forth between the OPS and CSO.::  OPS/CSO:  Euh, did you just see that?

Host SM_Sergio says:
ACTION:  A few seconds later, the stars outside the Artemis seem to shift.

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::Turns to the EO.::  EO:  I used...."If something is bugging you...kick it"  technique.  Only best can do that!  ::Smiles.::

Host SM_Sergio says:
ACTION:  The CMO, CSO and CIV shimmer into existence on the bridge, and the looming bulk of a starbase appears on the outside of the Artemis.

EO says:
::Scratches his head, but notices the bodies gone.::  All:  Wait a minute.  Something else is happening here.

Host SM_Sergio says:
ACTION:  Soon after, the stars shift back into focus, but now showing the Artemis on an entirely different location.

OPS_Ens_Landra says:
::Doesn't believe his eyes.::  CSO/CTO:  Did that just happen?  ::Points at the viewscreen.::

CSO_Carika says:
::Tries to make sense of sensor readings.::

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
EO:  Yea, I know.  All are stunned by my work.

CSO_Cmdr Gomes says:
OPS:  Long story.

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Rubs his eyes and looks at the viewscreen again.::  OPS:  Sure did, but..

OPS_Ens_Landra says:
::Looks around, startled at the voice.::  CSO:  Commander?

Host SM_Sergio says:
ACTION:  The looming image of Starbase 185 looms on the Artemi's viewscreen.

CSO_Cmdr_Gomes says:
All:  It's a long story, but suffice it to say the Nexus no longer poses any threat in that location.

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
EO:  Make sure everything stays this way!  Security team will stay to keep you till the situation calms.  I must go now!  ::Heads out and exits Engineering.  After a few steps through the corridor, he enters the TL.::

Host SM_Sergio says:
ACTION:  The CMO collapses to the floor.

CSO_Cmdr_Gomes says:
All:  The Aldura and the Wortinton are safe and so is her crew.  I believe only those of us who were in close proximity to the Nexus will remember it ever existed.

OPS_Ens_Landra says:
::Nods.::  CSO:  All right.  Looks like we're almost home too...

EO says:
::Haumphs.:  Self:  Cocky little fellow, isn't he?

CSO_Cmdr_Gomes says:
All:  It's a loose end ... of time.  OPS:  Beam the CMO and CIV directly to sickbay.

CSO_Cmdr_Gomes says:
OPS:  The nexus is not a healthy thing.  I am not feeling well either.

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
Self:  This buzzing, I must tell the CEO to fix this buzzing in the TL.  ::Exits on bridge.::

OPS_Ens_Landra says:
::Presses a few buttons initiating the transport.::

OPS_Ens_Landra says:
CSO:  Maybe you should let sickbay check you out, commander.

Nurse Salia says:
*OPS*:  Next time warn me before beaming down anyone.  ::Looks at the vodka spilled on the CIV's uniform and mumbles.::

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::Notices CMO and CIV before they are beamed to Sickbay.::

OPS_Ens_Landra says:
::Shakes head.::  *Salia*:  Will do.  ::Closes the line, still shaking his head.  He wasn't having a good day, at all.::

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::Turns to OPS.::  OPS/ALL:  What happened while I was kick boxing injectors?

CSO_Cmdr_Gomes says:
All:  I think we all deserve shore leave.

CSO_Cmdr_Gomes says:
OPS:  Are we docked?

OPS_Ens_Landra says:
::Nods.::  CSO:  Agreed!  I feel like getting a good night's sleep again at last..

Host SM_Sergio says:
ACTION:  Incoming communication from the Starbase.

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Turns around.::  FCO:  Who knows, but at least we're still alive.  ::Smiles faintly.::

OPS_Ens_Landra says:
::Before he can answer to the CSO, he gets a transmission.::  CSO:  Incoming transmissionm, ma'am.  Putting on screen.  ::Taps a few buttons.::

CSO_Cmdr_Gomes says:
::Nods to OPS and looks at the screen.::

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
CTO:  Eh?  Ah whatever, where did that Starbase arise from?

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
FCO:  We were 'hit' by the Nexus and somehow it changed time I believe.

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
CTO:  Okay.  ::Sits for helm as he looks at screen.::

Host SM_Sergio says:
ACTION:  On the viewscreen, an Admiral appears.

CSO_Cmdr_Gomes says:
::Looks at the Admiral.::

Admiral says:
@::Eyes everyone.::  Who's in charge?

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::Thinks.  ME!  ME!  ..err.. not me.::

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Looks at his console to appear busy, when the admiral appears on the viewscreen.::

CSO_Cmdr_Gomes says:
::Clears her throat.::  Admiral:  I am for the moment, Sir.  Captain Correz is in sickbay right now.  I am Commander Alexandra Margarida Gomes, CSO of the Artemis.

OPS_Ens_Landra says:
::Listens to what the Admiral has to say.::

Admiral says:
@::Eyes the Commander, after looking at the general look of surprise from everyone.::  CSO:  Well, i just wanted to let you know that your New commanding officer will be arriving shortly.  Please make arrangements to greet him at the door.

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::Looks at CSO thinking.::  Ah, when will I be able to say that I'm in command of ship!::

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::Rethinks a little.::

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Looks up from his console now.::  Self:  New CO?  Why didn't we hear about that before?

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
Self:  I know!  Tonight in my cabin!  I'll play that I'm Captain!  ::Smiles greatly.::

CSO_Cmdr_Gomes says:
::Blinks.::  Admiral:  Yes, Sir.  I, we just...

CSO_Cmdr_Gomes says:
::Stands at attention.::  Admiral:  Aye, Sir.  I will greet the new CO personally.

Admiral says:
@::Tilts his head slightly.::  CSO:  What's the matter commander?  You had been informed of this before.  You look surprised?

CSO_Cmdr_Gomes says:
Admiral:  We experienced a -... phenomenon in the past few hours.  You will find our reports to be similar to those of the Aldura and the Wortington.

Admiral says:
@::Frowns.::  CSO:  Commander, what do the Aldura and Worting crews have to do with your new commanding officer?

OPS_Ens_Landra says:
::Frowns at this news.::  Self:  I wonder who...

CSO_Cmdr_Gomes says:
Admiral:  Nothing, Sir.  Just wait for our reports.  Is there anything we need to know?

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::Looks at Admiral trying to figure out is he bold.::

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::Looks at the officers on the bridge and whispers.::  ALL:  Hey, we're talking to the chief of our new boss.  Where did you all gone in you minds?

Admiral says:
@::Shakes head.::  CSO:  Not really, but Commander.  I want that report on my desk.  ASAP.

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Smiles at the FCO and places a finger to his mouth, indicating that it would best to be quiet right now.::

CSO_Cmdr_Gomes says:
Admiral:  Yes, Sir.  Artemis out!

CSO_Cmdr_Gomes says:
FCO:  Go greet the new Captain.  Show him around the ship.

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
Self:  Hmm, why does the CTO put his finger on his mouth?  Does he want to say that I should kiss my finger?  ::Confused.::

CSO_Cmdr_Gomes says:
OPS:  You have the bridge

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::Turns to CSO.::

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
CSO:  I?  Well, okay...

Host SM_Sergio says:
ACTION:  The admiral figure disappears from the screen.

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::As the viewscreen goes black he faces the Commander.::  CSO:  Ma'am, what about this new CO?  I wasn't informed about this.

CSO_Cmdr_Gomes says:
::Walks out of the Artemis bridge, glancing back just once.::

OPS_Ens_Landra says:
::Sitting at OPS, he cuts the signal with the starbase and acknowledges the CSO.::

CSO_Cmdr_Gomes says:
CTO:  Just follow orders.  It will all make sense soon.. I hope.  If it doesn't, meet me at the starbase lounge for a drink.  ::Smiles and heads to the TL.::

FCO_Ens_Seifer says:
::Stands up and heads to the docking hatch to greet the new captain.::

CTO_Ens_Tanner says:
::Looks even more confused and focuses his sight on nothing in particular.::  Self:  Drink, lounge.. Oh well.  I guess it'll be okay.
