OPS_Hawkes:
::At OPS on bridge::

CIV_McLeod:
::at the SCI station on the bridge::

FCO_Nichols:
::At station on bridge::

CO_Grant:
::In the Ready ROom::

CNS-Jiosa:
::exits the Turbolift and walks onto the bridge::

CTO_Psion:
::At tactical::

CMO_Lea:
::Spinning slowly in her chair in the main bay of the infirmary::

XO_Lynam:
::On the bridge::

OPS_Hawkes:
::checks comm freq.s for messages comming through the cloud::

CNS-Jiosa:
::takes her seat::

CMO_Lea:
::Finally stands up and walks out of sickbay, entering a turbolift:: TL: Bridge.

CTO_Psion:
::Initiates scans of the vicinity::

ACTDNicke:
ACTION: frequencie modes are interupted slightly as they pass through the cloud

CEOLefler:
::Ponders the last few weeks in the silence of his office. Come to think of it. The last few weeks had been full of silence for him. Twp whole weeks of covering the Gamma shift at ME for one of hif officers who had needed an emergency leave::

ACTDNicke:
ACION:slight modulation is needed to enhance

CIV_McLeod:
::checks scans of the cloud::

OPS_Hawkes:
XO: I've been thinking about this mission. Depending on the size of the cloud, we could place bouys around the cloud and check what happens as they pass through.

OPS_Hawkes:
XO: The cloud is inhibiting comm to some degree. Slight modulation will correct for now. ::adjusts modulation::

CO_Grant:
::Finishes some paperwork and gets up from desk::

XO_Lynam:
OPS: Not a bad idea.  Lets see how big this thing is.

ACTDNicke:
ACTION: sensors show the cloud to  be massive but not dense

XO_Lynam:
CTO: Psion, can you give us an idea of the size of the cloud.

CO_Grant:
::Exits the RR and enters the bridge::

CMO_Lea:
::Enters the bridge, and looks around for a moment, noting Captain Grant's entrance from the ready room::

FCO_Nichols:
XO: Orders sir?

CO_Grant:
::smiles at CMO, then takes his seat::

CNS-Jiosa:
::gives her customary greeting, a nod, to Grant as he exits onto the bridge::

CO_Grant:
XO: Status?

XO_Lynam:
FCO: Slow to impulse.

FCO_Nichols:
XO: Aye sir.

CIV_McLeod:
::Looks up at the Captain's entrance, then goes back to the sensors::

CTO_Psion:
XO: The cloud measure 200 thousand kilometers yet it's density is less than standard nebulae.

FCO_Nichols:
::slows to impulse::

CEOLefler:
::CFan't take much more of this absolute silence and decides to go to the bridge for this shift. Things could get interesting up there.:::

XO_Lynam:
CO: We have arrived at the outer perimeter of the cloud.  We are taking some readings now to determine size and makeup.

CMO_Lea:
::Approaches the Center Seat:: CO: Permission to come aboard and resume duty, sir?

CO_Grant:
XO: good, is sci ready to deploy probes?

XO_Lynam:
FCO: Stop us outside the cloud please.

CO_Grant:
CMo: permision granted

OPS_Hawkes:
::continues monitoring communications. ::

CNS-Jiosa:
CO: ::smiling:: Sure that was a wise choice sir ? :: in jest Refering to CMO::

OPS_Hawkes:
::Sets up a continuous link with Starflleet, and records any fluctuations in frequency over time::

CEOLefler:
::Walks onto bridge, everyone seams busy with taking in the preliminary finding on the cloud::

CIV_McLeod:
::looks up:: CO: We are set with the probes, sir::

CO_Grant:
CNS: Of course I do, I have the utmost confidence in the DOCTOR

FCO_Nichols:
::watches readings as they approach the cloud::

XO_Lynam:
CO: Aye sir.  Standard science probes are loaded and ready.

CMO_Lea:
::Shoots a glance at the counselor briefly::

CEOLefler:
::takes seat at Bridhe Engineering station and transfers controls.::

CTO_Psion:
::Scans for any power signatures::

FCO_Nichols:
::puts in all stop order::

CO_Grant:
CIV: Launch when ready, co-ordinate with CTO

CNS-Jiosa:
CO: So do I sir absolutely the best CMO in the fleet without a doubt ::decides to quit while ahead::

CO_Grant:
::notices CEO on the bridge::

CMO_Lea:
CO: Thank you sir. ::Walks to back of the bridge. Is about to enter the turbolift, but stops and takes a position by an empty station::

XO_Lynam:
CO: Our new operations chief had an idea worth hearing.

CIV_McLeod:
CO: Aye, sir.  CTO: The probes are ready to be given coordinates

XO_Lynam:
::Smiles::

CO_Grant:
XO: Really , what was the idea?

OPS_Hawkes:
::notices an unusally high amount of power usage by bridge consoles::

FCO_Nichols:
::stops the Del outside of the cloud::

CTO_Psion:
::Sends CIV the coordinates of the launch: 180 mark 2::

FCO_Nichols:
CO: We are at all stop sir.

XO_Lynam:
CO: He recommends deploying buoys around the cloud and monitoring the effects of it on signals passed between them.  Thiat is if the cloud is not to large.

CIV_McLeod:
::receives coordinates and begins launching probes::

CO_Grant:
FCO: acknowledged. Prepare an evasive course just in case.

Lt_Cray:
::Enters Medbay::

FCO_Nichols:
::calls up sector plan::

CIV_McLeod:
CO: Probes are away, sir.

Lt_Cray:
::Looks around for a doctor::

CO_Grant:
XO: Interesting idea, a local network for testing purposes. See what is required to do it.

ACTDNicke:
ACTION: probes launch and begin sending back their readings as they pass through the cloud::

CO_Grant:
XO: Might have to use a shuttle to deploy the buoys, that reminds me did ENG finish preparing a shuttle or runabout for this mission?

CTO_Psion:
CIV:  Is there any indication that this cloud could interrupt normal shield output?

XO_Lynam:
OPS: Your buoy idea is a go Hawkes.  Coordinate with Science and see if it is feasible.

CMO_Lea:
<Ra'Chal>::Notices Cray's glance and walks up to him:: Cray: Can I help you?

FCO_Nichols:
::begins to zero in on immediate area::

CMO_Lea:
::Listens to the activity on the bridge::

OPS_Hawkes:
XO: Aye aye sir!

FCO_Nichols:
::looks over her shoulder to see Lefler::

CIV_McLeod:
CTO: I don't believe so.

Lt_Cray:
MO:  Yes.  I seem to have come down with a sort of cold.

XO_Lynam:
CO: The Platte is still modified for use in the Black Nebula.  Should be more than enough for this.

CTO_Psion:
::Begins checking the ionization levels of the cloud::

CMO_Lea:
<Ra'Chal>Cray: A Cold!  How terrible!  Your symptoms?

ACTDNicke:
ACTION: ion levels appear higher than normal

CO_Grant:
XO: Hmmm OK. Mr.Lefler what say you about the Platte? Is she about ready?

OPS_Hawkes:
CTO: That figure you gave on the cloud dimensions, was that 200Kliks diameter?

FCO_Nichols:
::begins inputting evasive plan Nichols-alpha::

Lt_Cray:
Ra'Cahl:  Sneezing, coughing.  Actually, I started coughing some blood up today.

CTO_Psion:
OPS:  Correct.

CO_Grant:
::Waits for CEO's response::

CIV_McLeod:
CTO: ...There is a larger dispersion of ion levels than normal, though

CMO_Lea:
::Patches through her console to sickbay just to keep an eye out::

CTO_Psion:
::Concerned about the ion levels::

OPS_Hawkes:
CTO: Thank you ::begins calculating the optimum triangulation based on coverage, and the number of buoys we have::

CTO_Psion:
CIV:  That may interfere with the targeting scanners.

ACTDNicke:
ACTION: other readings seem a little high also... may indicate why signals were being interupted

CMO_Lea:
<Ra'Chal>Cray: Mmm...Not good, in my professional opinion. ::Picks up a tricorder and begins scaning Lieutenant Cray::  Anything else?

CEOLefler:
CO: Yes sir, Modifications have been completed. She's ready to fly in soup if need be

CO_Grant:
::thinks of chicken soup::

Lt_Cray:
Ra'Chal:  No.  Other than a terribly stuffed nose.

CO_Grant:
CEO: I hope it won't come to that , Mr.Lefler

CIV_McLeod:
CTO: Acknowledged.  There does seem to be a discrepancy in some other readings as well.  I'll attempt to compensate for the ion levels

CEOLefler:
CO: Be prepared

OPS_Hawkes:
CIV: What do you think of this deployment of buoys? ::Diagram shows 8 buoys, six around an x axis, two on either end of the y axis::

CTO_Psion:
CO/XO:  The ionic interference of the cloud may hinder certain functions on the Delphyne, among them targeting scanners.

CMO_Lea:
<Ra'Chal>::Picks up a hypospray, loads a vial into it, calculates a dose, and administers the medication to Cray:: Cray: That was a decongestant...::Reloads the hypo with another vial:: Cray: And this is a anti-histamine. They should last until the symptoms have past, but check in again first thing tomorrow morning.

CO_Grant:
CTO: acknowledged, that sounds like a manual deployment necessary

XO_Lynam:
CTO: Acknowledged.  See if you can compensate for the cloud's properties.

CMO_Lea:
<Ra'Chal>::Administers the anti-histamine to Cray::

CIV_McLeod:
OPS:  That looks good to me.

CO_Grant:
CTO: Will that affect tractor beams?

CMO_Lea:
::Looks down at the controls on her console and notices that she is at an auxiliary tactical station. Quickly takes two steps back from the console::

CO_Grant:
::thinking of retrieving probes , buoys, and shuttles from the "soup"::

OPS_Hawkes:
XO: Here is the diagram we've come up with. It will take 8 buoys. ::Diagram shows 8 buoys, six around an x axis, two on either end o the y axis::

XO_Lynam:
CO: We're going to deploy them around the cloud anyway.  We shouldn't have to fly through it.

CTO_Psion:
CO:  It should not interfere with the actual tractor beam, only with our targeting ability.

CIV_McLeod:
CTO: I'm sending you an alternate setup for the targeting scanners.  It should be able to deal better with the cloud

XO_Lynam:
OPS: ::Examines the buoys' placement.  Looks good.  We'll go with this deployment structure.

CO_Grant:
XO: Ahh but sometimes clouds expand and contract

CO_Grant:
CTO: Thank you for your assessment

CTO_Psion:
CIV:  Acknowledged.

OPS_Hawkes:
XO: Aye sir: Begins arranging for the bouys. 8 with one extra (in case) sent to Shuttlebay 1::

Lt_Cray:
Ra'Chal:  Umm..do I get an anti-viral component.  What about an antibiotic?

CO_Grant:
XO: Select the team for the AT

Lt_Cray:
Ra'Chal:  I hate getting sick....

CMO_Lea:
::Moves to another console, patches through to sickbay, and orders a new inventory to be taken::

XO_Lynam:
CO: Aye sir.

CEOLefler:
SCI: Do you have a read on the composition of the cloud?

CMO_Lea:
<Ri'Chal>Cray: Antibiotics are only for bacterial infections--thus the "-biotic-."  The cold is a virus. You will feel find in a few minutes and the cold will pass in a day or two.

XO_Lynam:
OPS: Wait a minute.  Let me see that diagram again please Mr. Hawkes.

OPS_Hawkes:
XO: Sure ::hands it to him::

XO_Lynam:
::Examines it again, makes a few adjustments.::

FCO_Nichols:
::saves manuever and begins to set Beta::

Lt_Cray:
Ra'Chal:  What!  Did you say I'd pass out in a couple of days?

CO_Grant:
:: Looks over the data, hmmm high ion levels::

CTO_Psion:
::Examines CIV's modifications::

OPS_Hawkes:
::Puts a temp hold on the order for buoys::

XO_Lynam:
OPS: If we move buoys 4 through six into these positions, we can eliminate seven and eight altogether.  What do you think?

CMO_Lea:
<Ri'Chal>Cray: No, I siad you would be completely fine, healed, back to normal, uninfected, and _not sick_,  in a couple days.

Lt_Cray:
::Worries::  Ra'Chal:  Oh.  Maybe you should check my hearing too.

OPS_Hawkes:
XO: Oh, yeah....why didn't I think of that?

OPS_Hawkes:
::Changes the order to 7 (#7 is a spare) to be moved to SB1::

XO_Lynam:
CIV: Mr. McCleod, you and I will deploy the buoys.  Please report to shuttle bay 1 and preflight the Platte.  Be sure the buoys are loaded.  I'll join you in a minute.

CIV_McLeod:
::attempts to refine his original targeting modifications to be more accurate::

CEOLefler:
CIV: Do you have the readings on the composition of that cloud?

CMO_Lea:
::Reviews the personnel record of sickbay during her absence::

XO_Lynam:
OPS: Because your heart is not pure and you have too many vices.  ::Smile::

CO_Grant:
XO: Can we set up a relay buoy? That way we could continue to receive telemetry from the network of buoys and the probes while travelling to SB191

CO_Grant:
XO: Good luck, Mr.Lynam

CIV_McLeod:
XO: Aye sir.  CEO: It seems to be a common composition, mostly dust and ionic radiation

XO_Lynam:
CO: If it gets us home any quicker I'll string telegraph wire.

CIV_McLeod:
::explains what he's doing to the new SCI officer and heads to TL::

CMO_Lea:
::Notices a transfer request. Forwards the request to Commander Lynam and continues through the list::

OPS_Hawkes:
XO: The bouys you lay should give us comm with you regardless of what the cloud's interference does. Just be sure to place them so they have unobdstructed line-of-site to the bouys on either side::

CO_Grant:
XO: I let Mr.Hawkes program the relay while you and Mr.hunter-Mcleod play around the cloud.

XO_Lynam:
::Prepares to leave the bridge.::

CEOLefler:
CIV: Thank you mister McLeod. I'll  program the bouys accordingly a while you are on your way

CIV_McLeod:
TL: shuttle bay 1,please

XO_Lynam:
OPS: Roger that.

CIV_McLeod:
::steps off TL and makes his way to the shuttle bay::

XO_Lynam:
CO: Yes sir, we'll try to keep the aerobatics to a minimum.

CO_Grant:
OPS: prepare another buoy to act as a relay, we can deploy it from the delphyne part of the way towards SB191

XO_Lynam:
::Heads to shuttle bay 1::

CTO_Psion:
*Cray*  Please report to science station 1 on the bridge.

CO_Grant:
CTO: have you detected any other ships?

Lt_Cray:
*CTO* Acknowledged.

CIV_McLeod:
::makes sure bouys are onboard and steps inside the Platte::

CTO_Psion:
CO:  Negative.  Scans indicate we are the only vessels in the vicinity.

OPS_Hawkes:
CO: Aye aye sir! ::Places an order for another buoy to be placed on ready-status. Alters the program for comm-relay::

CO_Grant:
CTO: acknowledged

Lt_Cray:
Ra'Chal:  Is it ok to leave?

CO_Grant:
CNS: Have you sensed any intelligence from the cloud?

CMO_Lea:
<Ri'Chal>Clay: More than okay. Go ahead.

XO_Lynam:
::Arrives at SB 1 and walks to the Platte::

CIV_McLeod:
::starts preflight checks and initializes controls::

Lt_Cray:
::Leaves medbay::

XO_Lynam:
::Climbs aboard the Platte and hops into the OPS seat::

CTO_Psion:
::Continues scans for power signatures::

OPS_Hawkes:
::readies Shuttlebay1 for launch.::

CNS-Jiosa:
CO: I have not felt any yet sir

CIV_McLeod:
XO: Welcome aboard, sir.  We're ready to get underway on your command.::

CMO_Lea:
::Looks up to watch as everyone prepares to launch a shuttle::

XO_Lynam:
CIV: Clear us for launch Mr. McLeod, then launch when ready.

CO_Grant:
CNS: Hmmm, just a big cloud of ions and other particles so far then

CNS-Jiosa:
CO: So far, its been incredibly normal, which is abnormal for us ::grins::

CIV_McLeod:
*OPS: This is the Platte, we are departing for the cloud::*  ::makes a final check and directs the ship out of the Delph::

FCO_Nichols:
::finishes and saves Beta maneuver::

CTO_Psion:
FCO:  Will a warp field be stable in the cloud or will we be reduced to dependency on impulse engines?

OPS_Hawkes:
*CIV*: Roger Platte, you are cleared for departure. ::opens SB1 doors:;

CO_Grant:
COMM:PLATTE: Good Luck Mr.Lynam.

XO_Lynam:
@::Loads the deployment program into the Platte's computer and prepares the tractor beam::

Lt_Cray:
::Enters the bridge, feeling better now, an moves to science station 1::

XO_Lynam:
@COMM:Delphyne: Thank you sir.

CIV_McLeod:
::directs the runabout in the direction of the first deployment point::

CO_Grant:
FCO: as soon as the Platte returns to the Delphyne, plot a course to SB191. Co-ordinate with OPS on where slow down to impulse to deploy the relay.

XO_Lynam:
@CIV: Seems like as good a time as any to ask this Lt.  You DO know how to fly one of these right?  ::Grin::

FCO_Nichols:
CO: Aye sir.

CIV_McLeod:
@::chuckles:: XO: good timing, sir.  We should be fine.  Approaching 1st deployment position:

CO_Grant:
FCO: I never did hear from you about your advanced flight training, was the course worth taking?

XO_Lynam:
@::Readies the buoys for deployment::

CIV_McLeod:
@XO: Go ahead and launch the first one, sir.:

Lt_Cray:
CO:  As I'm sure you are aware...transports won't be reliable if we enter the cloud.

FCO_Nichols:
CO: Yes sir.  I'm surprised at how much I learned.  I brought some of the holodeck scenarios with me to help update the other FCO's.

XO_Lynam:
@CIV: Buoy away.

CO_Grant:
Cray: acknowledged, Mr.Lefler will have adjustments ready if needed

CO_Grant:
Iamsue

OPS_Hawkes:
::notices the first buoy come on. ::

XO_Lynam:
@::Monitors shields and power systems for abnormalities.::

CIV_McLeod:
@::pilots the runabout to the next position:: self: easy ride...

OPS_Hawkes:
CO: Buoy one deployed.

CO_Grant:
FCO: very thoughtful of you.

XO_Lynam:
@::Readies the next buoy::

CEOLefler:
:::Nods at mention of "adjustments"::

CTO_Psion:
::Scans::

CIV_McLeod:
@XO: go ahead, sir.

CO_Grant:
OPS: right on schedule.  ::thinks so far no hottub planet for Lynam to " jump " to"::

CMO_Lea:
<Ra'Chal>Computer: Location of doctor Lea?

CEOLefler:
::wonders if anything on this ship is still the way the specs say they are. Maybe I should go through and catalogue everything. But that would take so long...::

XO_Lynam:
@CIV: Buoy away.  Four to go.

OPS_Hawkes:
::brings up the 3d schematic of the bouys, a little blip appears where #1 is, and a dotted line going between it an the Del ::

OPS_Hawkes:
::another blip appears on the schematic::

CIV_McLeod:
@XO:  The next position should be adequate to launch #3 and #4, sir  ::moves the runabout to the position::

CTO_Psion:
CO:  All system check nominal, the Platte is performing well.

CO_Grant:
CTO: very good.

FCO_Nichols:
OPS: Have you chosen a spot for the relay?

XO_Lynam:
@CIV: Acknowledged.  ::Launches the two buoys::

CMO_Lea:
::Walks to a science station and uses the sensor to monitor the lifesigns of McLeod and Lynam::

CO_Grant:
COMM:PLATTE: Mr.Lynam , any sign of anything more dense than the ions and particles within the cloud from your vantage point?

XO_Lynam:
@CIV: Three and four away.  We just might make it home for lunch.

OPS_Hawkes:
::as blips appear, lines also appear showing the direct comm lines between them. Hawkes initiates a program to analyze the signals for both interference and temporal/spacial distortion::

CTO_Psion:
OPS:  How are communications with the Platte?

XO_Lynam:
@COMM:Delphyne: Negative sir.  Sensors show a normal gaseous anomaly.

OPS_Hawkes:
CTO: Appears to be fine. I'll run do a test comm.

OPS_Hawkes:
CTO: On second glance...appears ok

Lt_Cray:
::Scans with lateral sensors::

CO_Grant:
comm:PLATTE:Acknowledged, Mr.Lynam keep up the good work.

CTO_Psion:
OPS:  Acknowledged.

CO_Grant:
OPS: once the network is in place and our relay is deployed. Can you program it to allow routine subspace traffic from say the starbase to use the network to compensate for the cloud's effects?

FCO_Nichols:
::looks over at OPS station to see if relay point is marked::

XO_Lynam:
@CIV: Ready on the next buoy Lt.

CIV_McLeod:
::pilots to the next point:: @XO: go ahead, sir

OPS_Hawkes:
CO: Yes sir. In fact, the combines buoys ought to work as an interferometer array to help with routine comm traffic.

Lt_Cray:
::Scans for spacial anomalies::

OPS_Hawkes:
::the relay point is marked with a big red "y"::

FCO_Nichols:
::doesn't see the relay marked::

XO_Lynam:
@CIV: Five away.  One to go.

FCO_Nichols:
::leans further over::

CO_Grant:
OPS: Make it so and forward the details enroute to Starbase 191 informing them of our progress once the relay is operational of course. We would not want to lay a network egg

OPS_Hawkes:
CO: Aye aye sir.

CIV_McLeod:
::maneuvers to the final point:: @XO: Last stop.  We're in position

CMO_Lea:
::Notes the lifesigns are stable::

CO_Grant:
OPS: Better see what the FCO wants , she seems agitated

XO_Lynam:
@::LAunches the last buoy::

XO_Lynam:
@CIV:Alright....good work./

CO_Grant:
CTO: has the platte launched the last of their buoys yet?

Lt_Cray:
::Scans for energetic anomalies::

FCO_Nichols:
CO: Thank you sir but I found what I needed.

CIV_McLeod:
@XO: heading home COMM:DELPH:This is the Platte.  All buoys are away, we're returning to the ship

XO_Lynam:
@COMM:Delphyne: Captain, the last buoy is deployed and all are working normally.  We're coming home.

FCO_Nichols:
::inputs relay station into flight controls::

CTO_Psion:
CO:  Launch of the last buoy has been confirmed.

Lt_Cray:
::Wonders what's up...nothing bad turning up on sensors::

CO_Grant:
CEO: don't forget to have a team look over the platte for any residue of the cloud, their could be clues to its origin there

CO_Grant:
CTO: acknowledged

CO_Grant:
::Looks up at the monitor to see the runabout returning to the ship::

XO_Lynam:
@::Continues to monitor sensors and ship's systems.::

CMO_Lea:
::Waits, strangely apprehensive, for the return of the runabout::

CIV_McLeod:
@::brings the Platte into shuttle bay 1::

OPS_Hawkes:
:: Completes the message for SB191 explaining their new phone system.::

CO_Grant:
OPs : do we have them aboard yet?

CNS-Jiosa:
::senses Lea's and the crew in general anxieties ::

OPS_Hawkes:
CO: Yes sir. Just docked.

CIV_McLeod:
::sets down the rubabout::

FCO_Nichols:

FCO: engage the course to SB191, warp 4 until the deployment point for the relay.

CIV_McLeod:
XO: Home again, home again, jiggity jig

XO_Lynam:
CIV: Nicely done Lt.

CIV_McLeod:
::nods::  XO: I'm glad everything went well.

Lt_Cray:
::Scans everywhere...and mutters "I know there's danger out there somewhere::

FCO_Nichols:
CO: Aye sir.

FCO_Nichols:
::Engages at Warp 4::

XO_Lynam:
CIV: You and me both.  I hate space clouds.

CO_Grant:
:: feels the ship engage warp , and the cloud begins to shrink in the viewer::

CIV_McLeod:
::grins:: XO: They can be unpredictable.  No space monsters this time, though:

XO_Lynam:
::Looks suspiciously toward the rear door of the Platte for the space monster to emerge following Mcleod;s cue.::

FCO_Nichols:
::sends flight info to OPS:: 

OPS_Hawkes:
FCO: Thank you.

FCO_Nichols:
OPS: Confirm our station stop?

OPS_Hawkes:
FCO: Right about here

CO_Grant:
::Thinks to himself, hmmm now we have a chance for the Delphyne to recoup the ransom on Wall, we can charge SB191 for the relay system::
