Deep Space 102 Mission Transcript

An Easy Assignment?

Prologue: Last time on DS 102...

The crew was preparing themselves to receive the Deja'Wu Delegates. Suddenly, a mysterious power fluctuation was perceived. Then, Relief Operations Officer reported that out of the blue, two Cardassians Galor class warships had cleared the Station’s outer markers.

After they stopped at 30 kilometers from the Station, and having no answer to hailing attempts, shields were raised and one of the two ships opened fire.

What are they up to? Let's see if we find out...

MO_Ens_Maren says:
::saw DS-102 on sensors before hailing, but upon looking back at the readings sees energy discharges, and realizes that two of the ships in orbit are Cardassian::
MO_Ens_Maren says:
@Self: Oh, I guess I should stop hailing then.
MO_Ens_Maren says:
@::shuttle comes to a complete stop, then turns around to return to the edge of sensor range::
FCO_Ens_R`aumo says:
::Continues to check the progress of scattering civilian ships.::
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
Action: An auxiliary console EXPLODES in Main Operations. (Seemly, they forget about a great invention from the past, the fuse). InjurY reportS are coming from all Station Levels.
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
#<ACO>ACTO: Target the closest Cardassian ship and open fire, phasers and torpedoes!
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand says:
::looks up from the console she is using to monitor the progress of her team:: SC:  The civilians are within secure areas.
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
XO: Set a volley of torpedoes to the first Ship. On my mark. Now.
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
CNS: Acknowledged.

Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
Action: The XO managed to get a direct hit on the first Ship, completely disabling her shields
CMO_Cmdr_Turok says:
::Enters sickbay::
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
#<ACO>AFCO: Keep us away from the station but in fire range, let's see if we can get one to follow us out DS-102 area
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
*CMO*: Doctor, be ready. We have report from all the Station.
MO_Ens_Maren says:
@::flying in the opposite direction of the station, but only at full impulse, prepared to return after the battle::
CMO_Cmdr_Turok says:
Medical Staff: We are sure to have some customers I want everyone to be ready. Let's go!
CMO_Cmdr_Turok says:
*SC*: Aye sir. We are ready.
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
XO: Report!
Host XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
SC: The first Cardassian ship has sustained damage from our weapons. Their shields are down and they're moving off.
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
XO: Target their engines. Fire at will.
Host XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
SC: Aye Sir ::firing weapons at designated targets::
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
Action: The second ship received a direct hit from the Scorpius
MO_Ens_Maren says:
@::The Vulcan scientist is looking over Maren's shoulder at the sensor readings, neither one has found any need to make inane conversation about what they can both see clearly::
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand says:
::::tries to reach out and get a sense of what is motivating the Cardassians::
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
#<ACTO>ACO: Captain, our target is badly hit
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
Action: First Cardassian ship is disabled and drifting in space. THERE IS No answer from the Cardassian ships to any attempt of communication.
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
#<ACO>ACTO: Disable it, if they surrender we will offer assistance
CMO_Cmdr_Turok says:
::Begins working on the patients that are beginning to arrive in sickbay::
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
FCO: Hail the Cardassian Ships once again.
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
#<ACTO>ACO: They are not answering our calls
MO_Ens_Maren says:
@::tries to scan the station's damage, in an attempt to see how serious the situation is::
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
XO: Good shooting, Commander.
FCO_Ens_R`aumo says:
SC: Aye, sir. ::Attempts a hail.::
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
#<ACO>ACTO: Are they still firing?
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
Action: No answer....
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
CNS: Can you perceive anything, Counselor?
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand says:
::looks around operations confused:: SC: No, Commander, I'm not sensing anything from there, it's highly unusual. I should be able to get something.
Host XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
SC: Not me Sir, but I'll pass along your compliments to the various weapons crews
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
CO: Well done with that second ship, Captain,
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
All: Station Status report.
CMO_Cmdr_Turok says:
::using the dermal regenerator on an ensign from engineering::
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
CNS: That is really odd. Not logical at all.
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
::raises an eyebrow::
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand says:
::nods slightly in agreement:: SC: Quite.
Host XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
SC: Captain, reports are coming in, there are several decks that have sustained moderate damage, and Structural Integrity Fields are holding steady. Casualty reports are coming in and are being forwarded to Sickbay
MO_Ens_Maren says:
@<Tiesok>Maren: Ensign, something appears to be wrong with those Cardassian vessels.
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
XO: Acknowledged. Stand down Red Alert. Set Yellow Alert. We need to find out what were trying to accomplish by attacking us.
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
CO/XO: A boarding party perhaps?
MO_Ens_Maren says:
@Tiesok: I know that as a physician, I'm supposed to care about everyone, but right now, I'm more concerned with our people.
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand says:
XO: The Counseling staff can be sent to medical to assist if Commander Turok needs extra hands there.
MO_Ens_Maren says:
@<Tiesok>Maren: That's not what I mean. I think there's something wrong with the readings.
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
SC: If I understand correctly we have two ships to board?
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
CO: Well, that's an option.
MO_Ens_Maren says:
@::looks at the readings indicated by the Vulcan scientist:: ::scans the Cardassian ships in more detail::
Host XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::changes defensive setting to Yellow Alert:: CNS: Thanks Counselor.
Host XO_Cmdr_Mitchell (Yellow Alert.wav)
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
Action: That mysterious flickering happens again... and then...
Host XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
SC: May I suggest first hailing them again Sir, and finding out what they're so stirred up about, before we break down there doors?
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
SC: They have not answered hails before but maybe now....
FCO_Ens_R`aumo says:
::Looks up again:: Self: Uh-oh.
MO_Ens_Maren says:
@::Maren gives Tiesok a puzzled look. It's like the Cardassian ships are there, but they aren't there.:: Tiesok: Any idea what this means?
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
Action: The whole Senior Staff (except for the MO, aboard the shuttle), find themselves in Holodeck 2. A door opens, and Admiral Felix Laroux enters the room with a satisfied look on his face.
FCO_Ens_R`aumo says:
::Blinks.::
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
<Adm_ Laroux> All: Well, gentlemen... You did fine, indeed. ::taps on his Padd and hands it to his aid:: Congratulations.
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand says:
::looks down at the sensor readings to see what may have caused the flicker only to see it fade into holodeck pattern::
CNS_LtCmdr_Rand says:
::shakes her head slightly thinking that now it makes sense::
MO_Ens_Maren says:
@::The ships are gone.:: ::Maren attempts to hail the station.:: COM: DS-102: Deep Space 102, this is the Federation shuttlecraft Spencer. Do you read?
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
<Adm_ Laroux> ::to his Aid:: Ahh, please see to inform Flight Control that they can now stop toying with the new MO shuttle sensors. Give her clearance.
FCO_Ens_R`aumo says:
::Chuckles.:: Self: I hope he didn't run into anything...
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
<Adm_ Laroux> CO/SC: Captains, I must inform you that you have pass the first Surprise Drill for Senior Staff. I know you have lot of questions, I will answer all of them.
MO_Ens_Maren says:
@::en route to the specified docking bay::
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
<Adm_ Laroux> ::with an strong French accent:: CO/SC: Funny things we the Training Division come up with these days, ah?
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
ADM: I am mostly interested in how you managed to make this happen, I mean have everyone in the holodeck in the first place
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
Adm: I do not see the logic of this, Admiral.
FCO_Ens_R`aumo says:
::In a bad British accent.:: Self: By George, we've been duped!
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
CO: Oh, that is very interesting. As the Station Commander called everyone for a meeting this afternoon, I found the perfect opportunity to transport you all to the Holodeck. The system is not perfect, yet there is some minor issue with a flickering visual effect that we must work on.
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
ADM: I'm not certain I want you to work on that......
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
CO: Do not worry, Captain. This crew was selected as a Beta Tester for this new type of drill. And I must say it was a total success from my point of view.
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
SC: I am still not convinced. ::glares at the CO::
CO_Capt_Yo`Ghi says:
ADM: The prospect of being taken to another place without my knowledge is still unsettling to say the least
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
Admiral: Can I dismiss my crew, Sir? They need some time to rest, and still we have a big conference details to attend.
Host XO_Cmdr_Mitchell says:
::wonders to himself something about being a guinea pig::
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
Admiral/CO: Then I would like to have a word with you, Admiral. In my office, sir. ::his tone sounds severe, almost angry if he wasn't a Vulcan::
Host SC_Capt_Marek says:
CO/SC: Sure. The drill is over. I am all yours for any questions or remark you may have.
