Summary:  
An attempt has been made on the lives of the command staff of the Delphyne.  Was it some foe 	from the ship's past or are they getting close to solving the riddle of that data crystal?
The computer seems confused. It is saying that the DNA specimens do not match the archives, yet the archives do not match the crew files.  What could be causing this?

Star Trek, A Call To Duty, is proud to present the USS Delphyne, Chapter Eight – “Calm after the Storm”…We have a murderer on board? 10702.26
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Resume>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
::In sickbay waiting for her exam::

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
::At station going over the latest crew replacement list::

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
::Rechecking the crew manifest, again::

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
::On the bridge in his place::

CO_Capt_Mash`ev says:
:: In Sick Bay. ::

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
::In her science lab staring intently at the crystal::  Crystal: What secret do you contain that is so valuable to so many people?

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
OPS: Do we have a list of new crew brought on board?
 
CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
::Antennae wiggle as she stares intently at her board, reading name after name, looking for... ::

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::on the bridge running through the sensor logs about the Warbird::

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
Crystal: And why is unlocking your secret turning out to be a death-defying act.  ::bites the corner of her mouth::

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says: 
OPS: We need to check it against ship census as compared to manifest.  Whoever the killer is they just came on board recently like, from Utopia Planitia.

Action : The crystal begins to glow brightly and emit a high pitched sound.

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::walks over to the Captain and CEO, who are on beds near one another.:: CO/CEO: Well, your burns continue to heal, which is good. Because the chemical you came into contact with was such a severe base, the process is taking longer, even with help of the gel.

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
:: Rechecks sensor logs for any thing that could indicate a transporter beam:: XO: Right here, Sir.  The CTO and myself have been going over it.

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
::Eyes widen and she steps back::  Crystal: What in the universe?

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::looks up and sees the CTO rechecking the manifest again:: CTO: Find anything?

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
CMO: I am trying to think of what caustic chemical would cause such a burn.

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
::mumbles softly to herself, absorbed in her search she doesn't hear Mrlr at first::

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::sighs slightly, then turns and walks nearer the CO, looking down at him.:: CO: Sir, I have reason to believe that this was done deliberately.  ::hears the CEO, and nods, holding up a finger to wait a second::

CO_Capt_Mash`ev says:
CMO: Thank you, Doctor. I trust you're going to get us back to our duties as soon as you can?

CO_Capt_Mash`ev says:
CMO: Deliberately? Do you have proof?  ::looks at CEO, in concern::

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
::quickly double checks the force field that is in place around the crystal::

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
OPS/CTO: Wouldn't there be a video image of the Conference Room, perhaps the fellow who brought the goodies was caught on tape?

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
CO: Sir I agree.

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::nods:: CO: I will sir, but first...::pauses:: It was a chemical commonly used in waste management systems. It is something that should, on normal basis, be nowhere near the kitchen....an extremely strong base.

Action : OPS' panel detects a moderate range sound being emitted from near the Delphyne’s current position. No data just a short sound burst...repeating at random intervals.

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
CO: It has to be a chemical that can last in an oxygen/hydrogen atmosphere for long periods of time.

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
SO Drake: Has anything in the lab changed?  Atmospheric pressure, temperature, anything?

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::looks around for something to throw at the CTO to get her attention but then figures that it isn't very Starfleet-like to do so.  Gets up and wanders over:: CTO: Lt...have you found anything?

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
::hears something, not sure who it is.  Looks up with a confused look on her face:: Out loud: What?

CNS_LtJG_Silelik says:
::enters sickbay still looking over the sensory telemetry from their briefing experience and the comparison page of the necklace radiation signature::

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
::Checks course and ETA for our arrival to meet Commander Modex::

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::looks over at the CEO, then back at the CO, arms crossed:: CO: It is sweet smelling so that the workers who handle it do not go home smelling like chemicals...::frowns slightly at the CEO's comment...she must still be a little ticked:: CEO: Yes, it's chemical structure does of course lead to that conclusion.

SO Drake says:  
CSO: Of course not Commander.

Information: The containment around the crystal holds, but something continues to excite the crystal

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
XO: Here is the video of the conference room Sir. It seems that whoever it was knew enough to keep from being identified by the scanners.

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
::blushes a deep blue::  CIV: Sorry.

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::stifles the urge to bat at the furiously wiggling antennae of the CTO::

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
OPS: Camera shy, huh? That's too bad.

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
::antennae lay almost flat on her head as she blushes::  CIV: Did I miss something?

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::chuckles:: CTO : No worries....  ::sits on the edge of the console next to her::  Have you found anything?

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
XO: Sir I am picking up some kind of short sound bursts.

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
*CTO*: You still have that crystal in the containment field?

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
*XO*:  Commander Tarrez to the Bridge.  Sir, something is going on with the crystal but nothing because of anything we have done.  Anything going on outside that might be affecting this thing?

CO_Capt_Mash`ev says:
CMO / CEO: I see. We should try to match this chemical to what we're carrying on board to see if this was the same as what we normally carry.

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
CO: Well sir that is what I am trying to do now.

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
::Looks at the footage:: 
OPS: And the computer would be of no help in identifying this person, huh?

CNS_LtJG_Silelik says:
::thinks eavesdropping is an essential part of his job and makes certain he excels at it by listening to the CO, CMO, and CEO's conversation::

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
*CEO*: Yeah, I do Bri.

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
OPS: Sound bursts? Like what?

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
*CTO*: Well stay the hell away from it.  Take no chances.

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::raises an eyebrow:: CO: It is. I found it in the manifest of chemicals used on board Starfleet vessels. :;voice is somewhat flat::

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::shrugs:: CO: Only way I knew what it was.

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
CMO: What was the chemical?

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
::Raises an eyebrow and looks at Mrlr:: *CEO*: What have you got on it, Bri?

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
*CSO*: Use extreme safeties, Commander. We've had enough accidents lately. How do you suggest we proceed?

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
XO: Nothing that can be identified, just short random sound bursts.

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
 CIV: I've been looking at this list until I'm cross-eyed.

CO_Capt_Mash`ev says:
CMO: I was hoping it was something brought on board.. it might tell us who we're dealing with?

Information: The scans of the CO and CEO come up as perfect matches to the archive reference samples in the ships database

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
OPS: Keep on it. Let me know if you get more.

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
*CTO*: Based on what happened in the briefing room, I want no one near it.

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
XO: I am trying to pinpoint the source now sir.

CNS_LtJG_Silelik says:
::while overhearing their conversation, he looks at some of the medical tools they have out for regular sterilization::

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
*CEO*: You think they're related somehow?

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::shrugs at the CEO's remarks:: CTO: The CSO, I believe is taking care of the crystal.  Sy can handle it.

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::looks at the CO:: CO: Not sure sir...but whoever did this knew that it would only be a small amount of time before the base started to break down its container...or containers...

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
*CTO * : I am not sure but I don't want to take the chance.

CO_Capt_Mash`ev says:
CMO: Very well, thank you for tracking that down, Doctor.  ::smiles::  How soon before I can... ::looks at the door questioningly::

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::looks thoughtful for a moment:: CO: Which begs the question...how did they subdue its effects ::blinks and shakes head as the CO speaks::

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
*XO*: I need to know what has changed that has sent this crystal into activation again.   It could be a key to controlling it... but if we don't know what it is than we could just as easily blow ourselves up.  Are there any strange energy readings nearby or on the ship?

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
*CEO*: Understood.  You might check in with Commander Tarrez-Hunter about that though.  She's got it now

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::looks at him and blinks:: CO: Um...let me check over you again. ::walks to a console and begins a final scan.::

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
::raises an eyebrow:: Self: Oh no.

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
CIV: Have you come up with anything, Commander?

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
CIV: We have two days before we reach Commander Modex. I'd like to have our murderer caught by then. How realistic are my hopes, Commander? Anything on your investigation?

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::taps a paw at the manifest:: CTO: How many people came on board at our last stop?

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says: 
::motions to a nurse and walks back over...:: CO/CEO: You will have a bit of tenderness in the area you were both burned in for the next few days...just be careful and please don't take a bath in any more chemicals...::was that a joke? hm...::

Action : The CTO's scope shows a momentary shadow...like a cloud. Then returns to normal.

CNS_LtJG_Silelik says:
::figures he's eavesdropped enough and steps forward more so to get involved in the conversation::

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::nods to the nurse to clean up the CEO, as she tends to the CO...cleaning off the gel::

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
XO: Sir it sounds like an old sonar-type tone.

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says: 
OPS: Old sonar? Like who would be using an outdated system?

CO_Capt_Mash`ev says:
CEO: Did you think of something?

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
::taps her board:: CIV: There were.... ::trails off::

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
CMO: When you find the chemical I want to know about it post haste please.

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::smiles at Silelik, although very briefly...knowing he heard all of it::

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
CIV: Did you see that?

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::raises an eyebrow:: CEO: If you want the chemical, report to the chemical storage room in waste management, that's where it came from. I don't have it here.

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
*CSO*: Operations has some sonic activity that appears odd.

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
XO: maybe some one with very old equipment sir?

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
CO: I have a funny feeling that we might have a saboteur onboard.  How I don't know but I think so.

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
XO: There's not a lot to go on right now.  We've only had an hour and that really isn't a lot of time to narrow down all of the DNA in the meat locker.  We're checking the manifest right now....::trails off as she looks down at the console::

CO_Capt_Mash`ev says:
CMO: Thank you again, doctor. I'm a bit... concerned about meeting the Romulans.

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
CTO: I'm not sure.  What was that?

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
CO: The first place I am going to start is waste management.

Action : Another sonar tone strikes the Delphyne, this time from more than one direction.

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
CIV: Thank you, I know you are just as anxious to catch the killer.

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
XO: Sir, I picked up something...... looked like a shadow or cloud, then it was gone.

CNS_LtJG_Silelik says:
CO/CEO: Feeling better?

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
Computer: Can you block out the frequency of the recorded sonic activity that is being picked up outside the ship from reaching the crystal?

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
CNS: Yes thank you.

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::finishes cleaning up the CO, and walks over to look at the CEO's burns, then nods:: CEO/CO: Report to me if you feel any greater discomfort from the burns....otherwise, you are both released.

CO_Capt_Mash`ev says:
CEO: Ok, report to CTO Llynisika for 'saboteur duty' then.

CNS_LtJG_Silelik says:
::nods::

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
::Taps a command, reruns the scan::

CO_Capt_Mash`ev says:
 	CNS: Feeling much better, thank you.  :: Stands, pulls on uniform ::

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
CTO: Gone? Like the Warbird or can it be traced?

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
CIV: And we got the standard rotation crew, 50

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
XO: Sir what ever it is I have a feeling that there is more than one of them as it seems we are being hit by this from every direction.

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
*CTO*: I have been assigned to your saboteur duty.

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::works silently at the console::

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
XO: Working on it sir  ::touches another screen searching for the shadow-cloud::

CO_Capt_Mash`ev says:
CMO: Will do, doctor. I plan on staying away from anything not replicated for at least a week.  ::makes a face::

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
*CEO*: I'm on the bridge.  I'll fill you in when you get here.

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
CTO: Let's go to yellow Alert. I don't like all this unidentified activity out there.

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::raises an eyebrow:: CO: Then perhaps you should join forces with our new Ops Officer...::

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
::heads out of sick bay and into the nearest turbolift::  Computer: Bridge and no stops on the way.

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
XO: Aye sir ::taps the button for Yellow Alert::

CO_Capt_Mash`ev says:
CMO: Oh?

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
CTO: I'll see what the science sensors pick up.  They're calibrated a little tighter than the tactical sensors. :;heads over to the science console::

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
 	:: checks the power levels to make sure they are normal::

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::looks up...oh...did she say that out loud? whoops...looks at the CO blankly...expectantly::

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
OPS: Send your findings on this sonic activity to Commander Tarrez-Hunter, see if it helps her with her situation.

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
*CTO*: On my way there now.

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
::nods as Mrlr heads away::

Computer says:
Scone freeeeqeeency is detected. ::CSO console goes black as does the room she is in::

CNS_LtJG_Silelik says:
::remembers one of his very short Caitian patients showing concern about being dinner and momentarily raises an eyebrow::

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
XO: Roger Sir. ::sends his readings to the CSO console::

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
Self: Oh this can't be good....

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
XO: Sir, the first scan is on your screen.  ::Looks again:: I'm enlarging the scan radius in case it moves.

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
Out loud: Evac the labs now!

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::blinks:: CO: Oh sir, I should say, on the matter of the crystal...we have reason to prognosticate that the crystal can mutate DNA.

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
::Looks at his screen::
 
CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
*XO*:Bridge, power outage in science lab one.

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
*CSO*: Is everyone all right?

CO_Capt_Mash`ev says:
CMO: Oh? Well, that's very good! I mean, to learn. Will this affect the crew?

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
OPS: They are reporting a power outage. You may need to send an engineer. Check it out, please, they need their power down there.

Action: The ping occurs again. This time so intense that crew members can here it and OPS console explodes in a shower of sparks.

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
CO: Well, not sure. I wasn't able to finish my work in the holodeck yet...that's where I was when this started. ::pauses:: With your permission, I will return to my simulations there until I am needed...assuming I'm notified of more contaminating agents::

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
*XO*: Unknown, trying to evacuate now. ::starts to feel her way to here the door should be::

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
::Looks around as the OPS's console flashes::

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
:: jumps back as the console explodes::

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
::Antennae lay flat on her head, pained expression on her face:: Out loud: OW!

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::flattens her ears against her head and shakes it to get rid of the ringing:: XO: I'd say that someone wants our attention.

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
:: checks his fur to make sure nothing is burning ::

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
CIV: We need to know who, and now.

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
::Grimaces:: XO: Sorry, sir.  ::looks at the board::

CO_Capt_Mash`ev says:
CMO: Permission granted. Let's hope there are no more medical emergencies. I had hoped to keep your plate clean; I didn't realize how serious the burns were...  ::winces a little as he finishes dressing::

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
XO: The sonics are disrupting the sensors. ::thinks of something::

Information: After the flash, OPS is now clean shaven at least on the left side of his head.

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
CTO: Did the force field drop when the science lab lost power?

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
All: Can we identify the cause of that "ping"?

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
*XO*: Recommend retreating from this area of space... I think the sonic activity is to blame for what is going on down here in the lab.

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
*CSO*: Understood, get your people safe.

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
CIV: I don't think it did, I'll check again, though  ::Shakes head slightly, murmurs an 'Ow'::

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::raises an eyebrow:: CO: Sir, with all due respect, I am mostly relieved that it was not an airborne agent, or something more deadly, because then I would have been working with one hand tied behind my back and blindfolded...so to speak... ::turns around:: If you'll excuse me, I should get back to my research on the crystal's effects. ::walks away::

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
:: notices that the fur is gone on the left side of his head and hopes that it will grow back::

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
All: There's a recommendation for leaving the area. We are on course for Barradas. Any other suggestions?

Action: With the next ping the helm controls begin to fail.  The CIV's console shows the sound is being triangulated at them.

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
::reaches the door and tries to pry it open with the help of some of her science officers::

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
aFCO: What is our current speed?

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
XO: Sir I suggest that if we do we do it quickly.

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
::Antennae seem to get flatter on her head:: CIV: The field stayed up  ::voice is softer as the pings are hurting::

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
aFCO: Take us out of here warp 7.

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
XO: The sound is being triangulated directly at us.  Something is searching for us.  Have we tried hailing whatever is out there?

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
CTO/OPS: Let me know if we are being followed.

CO_Capt_Mash`ev says:
::Exits Sick Bay, the yellow alert finally 'registers'. ::  *XO*: Status?

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
XO: Aye, sir  ::turns her attention to the sensors::

Action : As the CTO looks at her screen, an image of a horrible battle flashes across it then disappears.

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
CIV: I'm almost tempted to have unessential personnel confined to quarters.

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
XO: Sir!  ::taps a command on her board, then hits it::

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
:: moves to a back up console and brings up operations on it::

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
XO: I would.  And evacuate the decks above and below the science lab just in case this thing is after the crystal.  No telling what it could do to that area of the ship.

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
*CO*: Captain we are accelerating speed. We are experiencing sonic activity proven hazardous to the ship's well being. And we have power outages in the science lab.

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
XO: I picked up an image of a battle.  But it disappeared almost as quickly as it came.

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
CTO: Another ghost sighting?

CO_Capt_Mash`ev says:
*XO*: Very good, get us out of here. I'm on my way to the bridge, at last. :: hurries to TL ::

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
XO: Not sure.  ::Looks at him:: It seemed to be very real.

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
CIV: Can you take care of that, Commander.

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
XO: Sir I would suggest going to red alert and trying to see if we can get a target lock on the where the sounds are coming from.

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
OPS: Make it so.

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::nods and turns to OPS:: OPS: Are the personnel still trapped in the science lab?

CNS_LtJG_Silelik says:
::moves towards the CMO:: CMO: Are you okay?

Ted says:
:: the CNS begins to hear voices :: ~~~We must kill him before Kahless or we are...~~~

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
::after a lot of grunting and straining::  Group: This isn't going to work we are going to have to cut ourselves out.

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
:: has the ship go to red alert:: CIV: As far as I know they are. I have sent a crew there to try and get them out but haven't heard from them yet.

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::turns around:: CNS: Yes I'm fine.

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
OPS: Try and transport them out.

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
*CEO*: Ensign, the doors of science lab 1 are jammed and we need to have some one cut us out... either that or a transport out.

CNS_LtJG_Silelik says:
::looks at the CMO... and raises an eyebrow:: CMO: I just... heard something. Question. Did you hear a voice?

CO_Capt_Mash`ev says:
:: Knows his place is on the Bridge though he really wants to check on the Science Labs. ::

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
::Coordinates with aFCO to get us away from here without going too far off course::

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
CTO: Send security teams to the area and evacuate all non-essential personnel from around, above and below the science labs.

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
CIV: I will see if I can. :: tries to transport the people from the lab::

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
*CSO*: I will try a transport out first.

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::frowns:: CNS: No... ::immediately pulls her medical tricorder out of her lab coat and starts to scan the CNS::

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
CIV: Aye, I'm on it

Action: With the next ping the Delphyne goes powerless as if a switch were turned.

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
::hands fly over her console on the bridge trying to get a decent transporter lock on the people::

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
Out loud: Damn it to hell.

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
::Nods at Sid:: TO_Noseitall: You heard, get Sven and you both take a deck.  Report to me when you're done.

CNS_LtJG_Silelik says:
CMO: Their exact words were, "We must kill him before Kahless or we are" at which it stopped. This is not the first time I've heard a voice.

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
:: tries to get the power back on line::

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
::Sitting in the dark on the bridge::

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
OPS: Try the fusion reactors.

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::instinctively grabs hold of Silelik's arm as the lights go out and everything goes silent:: Out loud: Oh for the love of... ::stops and looks up at Silelik, though she can't see him well:: CNS: It isn't the first time? What else have you heard?

CO_Capt_Mash`ev says:
:: Crashes to the ceiling of the TL as the power goes out. ::

TO_Noseitall says:
::Moves in the dark and hits face first the lift doors:: Out loud: Umph!

CNS_LtJG_Silelik says:
CMO: When a Romulan died during the recent attack, I was aiding one. He said, "It was the changed ones."

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
CEO: I am trying everything I can to get power back up.

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
OPS: We need to get power back fast. What happened?

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
All: Well...isn't this special.

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
::hits her COM badge to contact the CTO and gets no activation::

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
*Engineering*: Get your butts moving down there.

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::repeats the words to herself, her hand still clutching Silelik's sleeve::

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
::Can't help but state the obvious::

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
::curses in Romulan under her breath::

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::checks communications:: XO: COM's are down.

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::turns and moves to find PADDs on her desk...ironically, not letting go of Silelik's sleeve...::

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
::slams both fists on the console::

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
XO: Sir that last Ping took out the power we are working on getting it back up.

TO_Noseitall says:
::Stumbles around:: CTO: I'll take the Jefferies tube and get on it

Ted says:
~~~CNS: We must take that one...he could ruin everything :: another voice :: But he is blue...~~~

CNS_LtJG_Silelik says:
CMO: I suppose if one were to make vast jumps between Romulans, Kahless of Klingon, and the concept of change due to the affects of the crystals, it is speculative to say that the Klingons have a strong part to play in our current events.

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
CIV: Of course they are, Murphy's Law.

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
XO: Emergency life support is running but we only have 12 hours.

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
OPS: I know, and thanks for your efforts.

CO_Capt_Mash`ev says:
:: Stands, a little shaky. ::  Computer: ...    :: Tries tapping badge. ::

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
All: All right lab monkeys.... we need to cut our own selves out.  Find something to cut this thing.  I am going to do something to the crystal.

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
CNS: The changed ones....if he is referring to some sort of Romulan/Klingon :;looks at the CNS and nods- though she can't really see him well::

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
CIV: We need some answers folks.

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
::sits angrily fuming about the power::

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
::Sees no point in barking orders, he knows this crew knows what to do::

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
TO_Noseitall: Sid, get some runners so we can have a way to communicate between decks

TO_Noseitall says:
::Voice echoing a bit:: CTO: Aye

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
OPS: Can you get emergency power up at all?

Action : The crystal is now shining bright enough to illuminate the whole room even through the force field.  An image of a ship begins to form and in front of that ship is the Delphyne.

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
CEO: Chief we have any aux. Generators in ME that can be hooked up?

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
Self: Think Sy girl... ::looks at the crystal::  Whoa...

CNS_LtJG_Silelik says:
CMO: I believe someone is either trying to communicate with me or my eavesdropping habits have extended on a telepathic level. I just overheard them referring to stopping the blue one, who I assume to be the Captain.

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
OPS: Yeah if I can get word to my people.

CO_Capt_Mash`ev says:
:: Forces the doors open via manual controls, sees that he's half-way to the next level.. a difficult but not impossible climb out. ::

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::frowns:: CNS: What? Are you sure...do you...do you feel someone behind these words? Or are they empty, as if projected from the crystal? Is it safe to assume they tried to power it up again?

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
CIV: I am doing the best I can for the moment.

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
SO Drake:  How come I have a bad feeling about this? ::points to the images::

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
XO: Sir, we should open the lift doors in case anyone is trapped?
 
CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
CEO: I suggest you take the Jeffries tube express to main engineering.  We need emergency power for communications.

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
CTO: Good idea, I'll help you. ::Goes to the TL doors::

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
::has an idea::  SO Drake:  Quick grab anything that makes a loud clanging sound.  Maybe it will disrupt what the sonic energy did to the crystal.

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
CEO: Then I guess we need to find some way to get to ME so that we can try and get some power.

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
CIV: Mrlr you always know how to make me get dirty.  ::smiles at her::

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says: 
::looks around for pans or anything metal::

Action: The CO dematerializes off the Delphyne.  He finds himself on the other ship that is being shown by the crystal.  On that ship is one of those strange looking Romulans.

CNS_LtJG_Silelik 
     ::looks at the CMO:: CMO: You're right. Nevertheless, our ship is suffering from malfunctions and there 
     is a life threat towards our captain.

CTO_Lt_Llynisika 
     ::Growls at her dark board and makes her way to the lift.  She brushes up against Bauer and is glad  
      that no one can see her blush::

XO_Cmdr_Bauer 
     ::Works on forcing the TL doors open::

CO_Capt_Mash`ev says:
:: Stops in mid-climb, as he realizes he is not on the Delphyne any longer. ::
 
CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::on a whim, turns and grabs the stack of PADDs- five or so -that pertain to the DNA, and puts them on her person...:: CNS: I shouldn't have let him go so soon. ::sighs:: Well, what do you want to do? You're the one hearing the voices...will you be able to find them? Head to the bridge?

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
 ::growls:: CEO: better dirty than suffocating.  We have 11 hours of emergency life support left.  So I'd hurry if I were you.

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
::finds a metal dissecting plate and a metal handled tool::

Romulan says:
@CO: Welcome captain, we couldn’t have you interfering in what we have planned for so long.

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::knows that her staff is sufficient enough without her for the time...even if she technically should stay put...::

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
CTO: Ready? ::Gets into position:: CTO: Go! ::Attempts to pry doors open::

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
Out loud: Umph ::hears the doors gears squeak:: XO: I think it's starting to give.

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
CIV: I know how long we have. Believe me, I know.  ::begins the crawl towards engineering::

CNS_LtJG_Silelik says:
::tests his COM badge and realizes it doesn't work::

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
XO: Sir permission to go to ME with the CEO to see if we can restore some power.

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::sighs:: Self: Great, just great.

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
::Grunts as they both work at the doors::

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
::moves back near the crystal and nods as Drake has something similar::  SO: On three, bang as loud and as close to the crystal as you can all right?

CO_Capt_Mash`ev says:
@ Romulan: Why have you taken me? What is going on?  ::trying to figure out where he really is, stalling for time ::

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
OPS: Granted, and good luck.
 
CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
::counts out loud and when she reaches 3 they both start pounding as loudly as they can next to the crystal.::

Romulan says:
@CO: All in due time captain.  We are on the same side, but we require your special talents.

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
::feels the doors move and she gets a better grip on them::

CNS_LtJG_Silelik says:
CMO: First time experience on the ship with no power, no means of communication, and a threat to the captain's life. What do you suggest doctor? Wanna take a ride with me up the Jeffries Tubing?

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
Self: They think I am stupid and I don't know how long emergency life-support lasts.  Sheesh.  ::continues to crawl until she hits the first junction and turns to the left and manually opens the small door and continues her long journey::

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::sighs:: CNS: I should technically stay here, in case there are medical emergencies...but if you are right, the Captain might need me more at that point...my staff is quite capable. ::realizes she is still holding onto his sleeve, but doesn't let go::

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
:: follows the CEO through the Jefferies tube::

CO_Capt_Mash`ev says:
@ Romulan: My..?  ::eyes the Romulan suspiciously::  I am Captain Tar Rin Mash'ev of the USS Delphyne. To whom am I speaking?

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
OPS: Watch your head here, low bridge.

Action: As the strange ship that has taken the captain cloaks and disappears, one long ping can be heard throughout the ship.  Slowly power begins to flow through the Delphyne’s systems.

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
::ducks her own head as a door is there::

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
:: ducks under the low spot:: CEO: thanks.

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
Self: OK what the hell........

Romulan says:
@CO: I am Commander R'Tak, you might say, your host. :: smiles ::

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::is about to say something when the power slowly comes back on.  Rushes over to the OPS console and sits down:: XO: We are getting communications again.

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
CTO: I'd really like to get the power back. I'd like to secure the ship's controls in case of a hostile take over attempt. We can't let the ship fall into enemy hands.

CNS_LtJG_Silelik says:
::suddenly realizes that she is in fact holding on to his arm, but doesn't comment on it considering their present circumstances::

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
::taps her COM badge:: *XO*: What is going on?

Information: As the other ship moves away the crystal dims and begins to return to normal.

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
OPS: Hold on a sec.  Power systems are coming back.

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
*CEO*: Power is coming back. Tell me when we are good to go again.

CNS_LtJG_Silelik says:
::grabs some portable light sources with independent batteries, hoping they'll work, and moves towards the Jeffries tube junction in sickbay::

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
::Ducks as the ping sounds:: XO: I agree, sir.  And I'd be really glad when that stops.

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
XO: Systems coming on line.  Reports throughout the ship...power is returning to the entire ship.

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
 	*XO*: Understood.

CO_Capt_Mash`ev says:
@ R`Tak: You have taken me and I am your prisoner. You are my warden. :: Looks for a view screen. ::

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::looks at Silelik, realizing he broke away from her, and rushes after him:: CNS: Wait...

<Romulan> 
@~~~CNS: We have him, lets hope he can be of assistance, or else he will have to be disposed of~~~

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
:: sees the power come back up:: CEO: I suggest we find and exit and head for ME.

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
::Goes to console and changes security codes::

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
OPS: Lets get out of this tube here.  ::opens the hatch and climbs out::

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::taps her COM badge and hears the happy chirp:: *CO*: Lincaad to Mash'ev....

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
:: follows the CEO out:: CEO: shall we trust the TL?

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
*CMO*: Dr...we are getting reports of injuries throughout the ship when the power failed.  I'm routing them through to sickbay.

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
CIV: I want to know what caused that power outage.

CNS_LtJG_Silelik says:
::shakes his head at the doctor and backs out of the Jeffries tubing:: CMO: They have him.

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
OPS: Nearest TL is there let’s go.

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
::moves back to her board, calling up the sensors::

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
*CIV*: Understood. Is the Captain with you? We have reason to believe his life is in danger.

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
:: follows the CEO::

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
*All*: All stations report status.

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
::races for the lift and holds the door for OPS::

R'Tak says:
@CO: Warden never...more of a benefactor or employer.  :: points to the view screen :: It seems your ship is coming to life...pity they cannot intervene.

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::would normally chalk the CNS' voices up to insanity or stress or lack of sleep but, with all the strange things going on, it can't be a coincidence...::

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
*CMO*: The Captain?  No...hold on...

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
:: enters the TL right behind the CEO:: TL: ME

CNS_LtJG_Silelik says:
::taps his combadge as well:: *XO*/CMO: Commander, I'm picking up a telepathic communiqué from the source, who I believe to be the cause of our most recent problems. And... I now believe they have abducted our captain.

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
CO*: Captain, this is Commander Mrlr.  ::waits and tries again::

CO_Capt_Mash`ev says:
@ :: Relaxing a bit, since the Delphyne seems to be mostly unharmed. Maybe they just want him after all? A fair exchange for the lives of the crew. ::

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
*CNS*: What?

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
Computer: Locate Captain Mash'ev.

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
CTO: Locate the Captain.

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
XO: Sir, Security is working on clearing the decks above and below the science lab as well as that deck also.

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
::closes eyes and reaches out to see if anyone is missing or.....wait someone is missing and it is a familiar one, but all the emotions are impeding what she is feeling::

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
*XO*: Sir Some one is missing on the ship.

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
::Nods:: XO: Aye sir ::runs an internal scan::

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
CTO: That's fine, but we may have a new priority. Finding the Captain.

CNS_LtJG_Silelik says:
*XO*: Perhaps communications are still suffering malfunctions. I'll try again.

Computer says:
CIV: Captain Mash'ev is no longer on the Delphyne.

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::felt someone brush her mind and frowns, sending an irritated surge in response, but only briefly::

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
XO: Captain Mash'ev is gone. :: arrives in ME with the CEO::

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
::steps out of the lift and slides into ME::

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
*CIV*: Did you find him? ::waits with baited breath::

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
XO: Sir, I'm picking up the Captains DNA.  On a turbolift.

CNS_LtJG_Silelik says:
*XO*: I have been receiving telepathic messages from the individuals I believe are responsible for our loss of power and the abduction of our captain.

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
::points to an ensign:: EO Morison: You there! Get your butt over to the fusion reactors and get them online and fast.

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
XO: His DNA is all I can find on the ship

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
::slides over to the pool table and pulls up the power grids:: OPS: Over here.  You can monitor the power grid from here.

@Action : A very attractive Romulan female (what looks to be their version of a yeoman) walks up and takes the CO's arm.

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
::Looks at the CIV, in disbelief:: CIV: Send a communication to Starfleet Command and report our situation.
 
CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
*CMO*: No Dr...he's not on the ship.

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
CEO: We need to have your people hook up some of the Aux generators just in case this happens again.

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
 	::closes eyes and lowers her head, hands on her hips:: Self: Perfect...just perfect...

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
CIV: We may need reinforcements.

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
OPS: My people are already on it.  Powering up fusion reactors 7 through 13 for allocation to where ever you need it.

R'Tak says:
@CO: Please captain this lovely thing will show you to your quarters.  You must be hungry and could use time to freshen up.

CO_Capt_Mash`ev says:
@ :: Allows himself to be lead.. for now. This isn't the time to be a hero, not while the Delphyne could still be in danger. ::  R`Tak: I'm fine. I just had a shower.. ::grimaces::

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
CEO: For now have them set to stand by as main power is back on line.

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
CTO: At this point I'd like to shoot that crystal out an airlock. It’s caused us nothing but trouble.

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
::sends a priority report to Starfleet headquarters and then adds an encoded message to her people as well:: XO: I suggest we get to our destination as soon as possible.  I have a feeling that Commander Modex might have a few answers for us.

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
Ens. Johnson: Get your teams to the waste management and find out what that caustic chemical was. I want a report yesterday.

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
XO: Sounds good to me  ::after a slight pause adds:: Sir

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
CIV: ...and leave the Captain behind?

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
OPS: Right now sir I have my people doing that.

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
Ens. Thompson: Get those reactors into standby mode once they are ready.

OPS_Ens_Twelk says:
:: Routes more power to the sensor array in hopes that they can find what ever was out there doing this to the ship.::

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
CIV: I don't like that idea. We can't leave him behind.

CTO_Lt_Llynisika says:
XO: Maybe the crystal can help us find the Captain  ::antennae are up straight::

CIV_Cmdr_Mrlr says:
XO: Whatever took out our power took the Captain.  I doubt that they are here any more and finding them is next to impossible.  Modex may be the only one with an answer as to where they went.

CEO_Ens_Bri_Rochelle says:
Self: I know that Crystal has something to do with all of this but what???  And what the blazes happened to the captain??

XO_Cmdr_Bauer says:
::Knows she may be right but, still doesn't like it::

CO_Capt_Mash`ev says:
@ ::  Takes one more look at the diminishing Delphyne as he's lead away, uncertain of what lies ahead. ::

CNS_LtJG_Silelik says:
::looks at Lincaad:: CMO: Fortunately, I'm not schizophrenic.

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
::was pounding away, but slows to a stop as it doesn't seem to work.  Then watches as the little image of the other ship disappears and the crystal starts to dim::

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
::curses to herself again::  Drake: Not a word to anyone... got it!

CMO_Ens_Lincaad says:
::raises an eyebrow:: CNS: You sure? ::smirks slightly, despite the situation::

Information: Within the hour the power systems on the Delphyne have returned to operational and the ship can resume its course.  On board the Romulan ship Mash'ev is being treated like an ambassador. Whatever it is they want, they are treating him very well.
