Deep Space 102 - 10904.17

Federation Lampoon's Galactic Vacation

Double-backs

Host Gerry says:
Previously on DS102:

Last time, several ships arrived and left, some heading towards Federation space, and some for Cardassian space. With the drama surrounding the rescue of the CTO, several things have gone unnoticed and undetected that should not have...

Will they be detected this time? Only time will tell...

We pick up right where we left off.

CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
::Hobbles out of the turbolift headed to Sickbay::
CMO_Cmdr_Turok says:
::Finishing his paperwork on the CTO::
SC_Capt_Marek says:
::sitting at the secondary tactical console in the Bridge::
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
:: sitting in his command chair on the Bridge, ready reports as usual ::
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
::Arrives at the entrance to Sickbay and stops to rest, leaning on the cane::
CEO_Ens_ShinJi says:
::up to his armpits in a plasma injector overhaul::
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
::Takes a deep breath and enters Sickbay, making her way to the closest biobed:: CMO: Doctor?
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::taking a walk around the ship to check on just about everything::
CMO_Cmdr_Turok says:
CTO: Yes. How may I be of service to you today?
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
::Pushes herself up onto the biobed:: CMO: The leg isn't feeling too good, Doc. Can you do anything for it? I don't want to use this damn cane anymore!
CEO_Ens_ShinJi says:
::signals a repair team to overhaul the Bridge turbolift system::
CMO_Cmdr_Turok says:
CTO: Well there is always amputation, how do feel about that? ::Smiling::
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
CMO: I'd laugh if I wasn't in so much pain. Seriously, what can you do? How about an injection?
SC_Capt_Marek says:
CO: Captain, regarding our last talk with the CTO, I would like to advise you to suggest the CTO to increase her regular visits to the Counselor. I noticed she is very nervous, I guess because of her last experience on Wonderspace.
SC_Capt_Marek says:
::continues scrolling the screen while talking to the CO, going through several annoying reports::
CMO_Cmdr_Turok says:
CTO: We could administer a mild analgesic to try and reduce the pain.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
CMO: Good, do it.
CMO_Cmdr_Turok says:
::Goes to his cabinet and removes a hypospray::
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::finds himself approaching Main Shuttle Bay::
CMO_Cmdr_Turok says:
CTO: There we go. ::Injects the CTO:
CEO_Ens_ShinJi says:
::finish's his repairs and signals a crewman to reinstall the injector::
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
CMO: Thanks, Doc. How long before it takes effect?
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
SC: Would you please send a note to the Counselor? She can ask Ryan for a session, a follow-up after the incident. If she refuses tell the Counselor to call me, I'll make it an order
CMO_Cmdr_Turok says:
CTO: You should be able to fell the effects by now, but go lightly on that leg, alright.
SC_Capt_Marek says:
CO: Right away, Sir.
SC_Capt_Marek says:
::types the memo and sends it to the CNS::
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
::Slides off of the biobed and puts some weight on the leg:: CMO: You're right, it does feel a little better. ::Hands the Doc her cane:: CMO: Here, you can recycle this thing! ::Makes her way to the door::
CMO_Cmdr_Turok says:
CTO: Hey!
Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  The private vessel beams various things aboard and breaks orbit after a moment, heading toward Cardassian space at a high rate of speed...
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
CMO: What?
CMO_Cmdr_Turok says:
CTO: You might want to keep this with you; that will run out eventually...
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand says:
::steps off the lift and walks the short distance to sickbay::
SC_Capt_Marek says:
*CNS*: Counselor, please see to find the time for a meeting with Commander Ryan. I've already sent you a memo explaining the situation. To make a long story short, the CO and I consider she is a little altered since her last experience on the planet, and we are concerned about that.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
<TO> ::On the Bridge at tactical:: CO: Sir, sensors have detected a ship breaking orbit and heading towards Cardassian space at high warp.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
::Looks at the cane and shakes her head:: CMO: No, thanks, Doc. I never want to see that thing again! ::Turns and heads out of Sickbay towards the turbolift::
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand says:
*SC*:  Yes, Captain, I'm in sickbay now, I had hoped to catch her here to check on her.
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
TO: Run it's registry number with the database to see if something is wrong with it but you will find that many ships come and go from this place
SC_Capt_Marek says:
*CNS*: Understood, please keep us informed.
CMO_Cmdr_Turok says:
Self: Kids, they will never learn. Why must they always do things the hard way. Oh well.
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::wanders around the Shuttle Bay checking each of the shuttles, including the Griswalds::
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
<TO> CO: Aye, Captain. ::Taps the console to see if the ship's registry number is in the database::
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand says:
::watches the exchange between the CTO and CMO follows the CTO out::  CMO:  I'll go after her, do you want me to take that with me?
SC_Capt_Marek says:
TO: Was that ship scheduled to be here?
CMO_Cmdr_Turok says:
CNS: If you don't mind> ::Hands the cane to the CNS::
CEO_Ens_ShinJi says:
::looks at the warp core and listens for a sec:: Computer: run a diagnostic on the warp reactor.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
<TO> SC: I'll know in a few seconds, Sir. Patching into the Wonderspace flight logs now.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
::Enters the turbolift:: TL: Computer, Bridge.
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand says:
::takes the cane from the Doctor:: CMO:  Not at all...  ::hurries after the CTO::
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand says:
::arrives at the lift in time to hear the CTO call out for the Bridge::  CTO: Hold up, I'll go with you.
CEO_Ens_ShinJi says:
<Computer> CEO: Warp reactor is currently operating within operation specifications.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
::Hears the CNS:: TL: Computer, hold!
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
<TO>CO: The ship is registered to a Than Frelling out of Betazed and it's not listed on the Wonderspace flight logs.
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand says:
::enters the lift:: CTO: Thank you, Commander. How are you holding up?
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
CTO: But it is not reported as stolen or wanted?
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
CNS: Hello, Commander. I'm doing good now. The Doc gave me an injection and my leg feels much better. ::Notices the damn cane in the CNS' hand:: You have a leg problem too?
CEO_Ens_ShinJi says:
::moves to a control console and calls up diagnostics on the warp core::
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::one of the workbee shuttles catches his attention - seems there's a bit of a smudge on the port nacelle::
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand says:
CTO: No, but I did hear the Doctor's recommendation to use this. You'll heal more quickly, you know that don't you?
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
<TO> CO: No, Sir. I'm running a search for Than Ferlling to see what we have on him.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
CNS: I don't have time to be hobbling around on that cane. I have work to get done and I have to get to the Bridge.
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand says:
CTO: And hobbling around without the cane is faster?  
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
TL: Computer, resume.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
CNS: Absolutely.
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand says:
CTO: You realize that not using the cane could lead to further injury?  
CEO_Ens_ShinJi says:
::notices a small power fluctuation in the antimatter injection assembly:: Bridge: Engineering
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
<TO> CO/SC: I have something on Than Frelling, Sirs. He's been dead for 53 years and was original from Alpha Centauri. ::Looks up from the console:: If he's been dead for 53 years and the vessel passed on to someone else, wouldn't they have to reregister it?
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
CNS: Not to worry, Counselor. I'll be careful. ::Exits the turbolift onto the Bridge and heads to tactical::
SC_Capt_Marek says:
CO/TO: I guess that could be interpreted as a little suspicious thing, indeed
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
<TO> CO/SC: Well, sensors did detect traces of a transport from the surface to his vessel just before they broke orbit...
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
TO: They would
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
TO: Location on that transporter activity on the surface?
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
::Steps up to the tactical station and gets a quiet briefing from the TO. Nods and takes over the station::
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand says:
::follows Ryan:: CTO: I'm sure you'll be careful, but crew well-being is my concern... and I have to admit I'm concerned. Maybe we could meet to talk after shift, perhaps in the lounge?
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
::Motions to the TO that she'll take care of it then taps the console bringing up the sensor detail:: CO: The transport was... ::Pauses because she can't believe the coordinates of the transport:: Uhh... the transport originated just outside the mountain range where I was climbing, Sir.
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::decides there's nothing of significance to worry about in the Shuttle Bay so decides proactively to head to Main Engineering::
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
::Nods to the CNS:: CNS: I'll see you in the lounge at 1930.
CMO_Cmdr_Turok says:
::Finishes his report and gets up to leave sickbay::
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
CTO: I taught that sensors could not scan that area?
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::heads to the nearest turbolift::
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand says:
CTO: Agreed ::steps back to let the others concentrate on the situation at had and listens to what is going on::
CEO_Ens_ShinJi says:
::makes some adjustments to the antimatter injector commands and monitors the results::
SC_Capt_Marek says:
::approaches to the Tactical console:: CO/CTO: That is certainly odd.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
CO: They can't but this is just outside the area, Sir. Right on the edge.
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
CTO: Any remaining traces of what they transported?
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
::Nods to the SC and allows him to read the sensor detail for himself. Thinks: Damn, Vulcans::
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
CO: I'll check, Sir. ::Taps the console::
SC_Capt_Marek says:
::watches at the sensor screen and notices he is invading the CTO's area:: CTO: Sorry, Commander, ole former CTO habits.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
SC: It's okay, Sir. ::Moves back to her former position at the console::
CMO_Cmdr_Turok says:
::Exits sickbay and makes his way to the turbolift::
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
::Sighs as she reads the sensor detail:: CO: There was intermittent interference but it appears to be living organic tissue suggesting it was humanoids of unknown origin. Not enough detail for a specific species determination, Sir.
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
TL: Computer: Main Engineering
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
SC: What do you make of it? I was expecting traces of explosives or weapons, not people.....
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
CTO: Can you detect the ship on long-range sensors?
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
CO/SC: Maybe they were picking up their crew from shore leave and heading back to where ever they came from?
CEO_Ens_ShinJi says:
::reads the results of his changes and doesn't like the outcome::
SC_Capt_Marek says:
CO: Any ship heading to Cardassian space, it something that I’ve learned to fear. However, we have only a few data to establish a logical conclusion right now. The CTO could be right.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
::Taps the console and brings up the long-range sensors:: CO: The ship is on long-range sensors and is headed for the Cardassian border at warp 8. They should cross the border within the hour.
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
SC/CTO: Possible, but the bad registry would warrant an investigation if we can still catch them
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell (TurboLift.wav)
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::arrives near Main Engineering and exits the turbolift::
SC_Capt_Marek says:
CO: Agreed. Let's not waste more time then, before the ship signature decreases more
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
CO/SC: Why would a small ship like this one be heading for Cardassian space?
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::enters Main Engineering and looks around for the CEO::
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand says:
::hopes they were only after their own crew::
CMO_Cmdr_Turok says:
::Enters the turbolift::
SC_Capt_Marek says:
CTO: Maybe because if they are involved in an illegal situation, a small ship can be less suspicious.
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
CTO: They could be doing trading, but a false registry is probably used for smuggling
CEO_Ens_ShinJi says:
::moves to the main Engineering console and notices the XO enter:: XO: Good morning sir.
CMO_Cmdr_Turok says:
TL: Operations
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
CO: Transferring the coordinates to the helm. ::taps the console:: We'll need to put the pedal to the metal, Sir. Warp 9.5 in order to catch them within five minutes of reaching the border.
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::finally sees the CEO and approaches him quickly:: CEO: Chief, everything under control here?
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
CTO: Set course and engage
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
SC: Contact our crew on leave and tell them we will be back in a few hours
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::senses a change in the ship::
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
<Relief FCO> ::Receives the coordinates from the CTO:: CTO: Coordinates received. CO: Coordinates locked in.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
Relief FCO: Engage, warp 9.5, Ensign.
CEO_Ens_ShinJi says:
XO: For the most part sir. The antimatter injector is acting up I'd recommend taking the warp engines off line until I can get it fixed.
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
*XO*: Commander Mitchell, please report to the Bridge
Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  The USS Scorpius gives chase to the pleasure craft...
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
<Relief FCO> ::Aloud:: Breaking orbit and engaging warp engines.
CEO_Ens_ShinJi says:
::notice's the warp engines go to full power::
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::hears the call and immediately starts heading out of Main Engineering:: CEO: Noted Chief, looks like that'll have to hold for now... Keep an eye on it and I'll inform the Captain.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
*CEO*: Commander Ryan to Ensign ShinJi.
CEO_Ens_ShinJi says:
::calls out after the XO:: XO: Aye sir. I'll hold it together.
CMO_Cmdr_Turok says:
::Steps off the turbolift onto Bridge::
CEO_Ens_ShinJi says:
*CTO*: Go ahead Commander
SC_Capt_Marek says:
::stands at attention next to the CTO::
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
*CO*: Aye Captain, on my way... We may have an antimatter injector problem, but the Chief's monitoring it. I'd recommend not pushing it more than you have to.
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::heads to nearest turbolift again::
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
*CEO*: We'll be pushing the warp engines a bit. We need to sustain warp 9.5 for approximately 50 minutes.
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::enters the lift:: TL: Computer: Bridge!!!
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
*XO*: We are pursuing a ship with an irregular registry, are we in danger or can we still pursue?
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell (TurboLift.wav)
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan  (Warp Out.wav)
CEO_Ens_ShinJi says:
*CTO*: We have an issue with the antimatter injector that I'm keeping an eye on but we should be ok for that long. Just no sudden power spikes if you can.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
*CEO*: Put some tape on it, Ensign... do the best you can. Ryan, out.
Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  The USS Scorpius gains on the smaller craft quickly...
CMO_Cmdr_Turok says:
::Looks around the Bridge::
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
CO: The new Chief says we should be okay for the next 50 minutes, Sir.
CEO_Ens_ShinJi says:
*CTO*: Will do sir. I have some bubblegum as well if I need it.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
::Notices the CMO on the Bridge and tries to ignore him::
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::arrives to the Bridge and exits the turbolift::
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
*CEO*: If you think it will help, use it! Ryan, out.
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
CO: Captain.... what's the situation, Sir?
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
XO: Ship beamed people from Wonderland is registered to a man dead for 50 years....
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
CTO: Open hailing frequencies
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::wonders what even caused us to check it out::
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
::Taps the console opening up hailing frequencies:: CO: Hailing frequencies open, Sir.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan  (Comm Channel Opening.wav)
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
::Checks the weapons and shield systems::
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
COM: Pleasure Ship: This is Captain Yo'Ghi of the Federation ship USS Scorpius, stop your engines at once
CMO_Cmdr_Turok says:
::Looks at the CTO::
SC_Capt_Marek says:
::listens the COM::
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::moves over by the Station Commander:: SC: Okay Sir, how'd we get involved in this one?
Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  There is no response to the hail.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
CO: No response, Sir.
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
CTO: Warning shot
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand says:
::walks over to the CMO and returns the cane:: CMO: She's rather determined.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
::Thinks: Alright, now we're talking. Taps the console. Aloud:: Firing warning shot. ::Hits the warning shot button::
SC_Capt_Marek says:
XO: Err... Let's see, the sensor detected that the ship beamed aboard some sort of organic material, probably people, it is registered to a man that has been dead for over 50 years, and it is heading to Cardassian Space. Plenty of reasons to check it out
SC_Capt_Marek says:
XO: Also, it was not listed in Wonderspace flight logs.
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
CTO: Be ready to disable their engines
Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  The smaller craft slows and comes about as it slows from warp and stops.
SC_Capt_Marek says:
::hears the wonderful sound of the phaser fire indicators in the Tactical console::
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
SC: Seriously? Were the sensors set for high alert or something?
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
CO: Ready, Sir. ::Target locks the small ship's engines::
CMO_Cmdr_Turok says:
SC: Pardon me for interrupting sir, but it could be just a SNAFU in the paperwork couldn't it?
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
CO: They're coming about, Sir.
SC_Capt_Marek says:
XO: No, in fact the Tactical Officer discovered it by chance in a normal routine scan.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
<Relief FCO> CO: They've come about and are stopping, Sir.
CMO_Cmdr_Turok says:
SC: You would think someone would have noticed it long before this if they posed a threat.
SC_Capt_Marek says:
CMO: Possible, Commander. But it is fun to check. ::smirks::
XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::thinks to himself, amazing, even when we're not looking for trouble, we manage to find it anyway::
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
COM: PS: Respond on comm channel
Host Gerry says:
ACTION:  There is no response on the comm channel
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
CO: Phasers locked on target, Sir. Standing by.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
CO: No response to your hail, Sir.
SC_Capt_Marek says:
CO: I recommend a tractor beam over the ship
SC_Capt_Marek says:
CO: But keep it at a safe distant
CMO_Cmdr_Turok says:
Self: Comm problems? That ship is pretty old.
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
CTO: What can you say of the ship, how many passengers? Weapons?
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
CO: Scanning, Sir.
CTO_Cmdr_Ryan says:
CO: Scans are picking up weapons but nothing of significance. Picking up 14 life signs, mostly on the Bridge and a concentration of five located in the aft section. They are receiving our comms, but are not responding.
