Summary:  The Delphyne continues its patrol to rendezvous with the Klingon science platform as it reaches OMEGA LEONIS, the Del is still 4 days out from arriving as is the platform.
 
Commander B'Rel has briefed the CO, XO, and CIV on the situation concerning the theft of 4 Klingon vessels as well as the involvement of a certain Romulan Senator.
 
The Romulans may not be the only ones interested in the destruction of the platform as well as the Delphyne.  A Klingon empire that has limitless supplies of materials as well as energy would be a welcome ally to the Federation, and a feared enemy of the Romulans, the Founders, the Cardassians, and perhaps even the Others.
 
Meanwhile the XO continues her investigation into her new nocturnal activities.  So far nothing has come to light...well other than most of the XO during a dance. <eg>
 
Star Trek, A Call to Duty, is proud to present the USS Delphyne, Chapter Two -  “Our Enemy has many faces” The enemy lets its presence be known... 10710.03

::looks up:: XO: Commander....feeling better?

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
:: makes minor course adjustments::

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
CO: Okay Ma'am

OPS_Ltjg_Twelk says:
*CEO*: Chief you come up with any way to mask our shields?

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
::doesn’t look up from his console, but simply continues to appear attentive::

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
::nods:: XO: Good.  Can you do the rounds and see how everyone is doing, please. ::indicates the concentrating officers on the bridge::

CMO_Cmdr._Hunter says:
::Looks up from a patient bed to see the ensign hit the floor, walks over to him:: ENS: You alright Ensign? what’s wrong?

CEO_LtJG_Heller says:
::sees some slightly high radiation levels near the nacelles but nothing harmful::

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
::hums waltzing Matilda softly::

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
CO: Aye  ::moves around the bridge, checking in with the others::

CEO_LtJG_Heller says:
*OPS*:  I'll see what I can do.

Ens_SEC_Tackleburry says:
CMO: I don’t feel so well I...:: vomits at the CMO's feet ::

OPS_Ltjg_Twelk says:
*CEO*: Chief I was wondering if it would be possible to create some sort of static field around the ship to hide our shields that way?

CMO_Cmdr._Hunter says:
::steps back out of the way:: motions for 2 of the Techs to assist the ensign to a bio bed::

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
::moves to Bells side:: CTO: Anything on the scans, Ensign?

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
SO: I want you to take these sensor ghosts we keep getting on the sensors and I want you see if you can find something to indicate if it is our escort out there or someone else.

CMO_Cmdr._Hunter says:
Ens: When did this start?

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
XO: Nothing solid ma'am.  Just a sensor ghost.  My guess is that it is our escort.

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
::ears perk up at that comment::

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
::nods as she glances at the board::  CTO: Most likely, but keep an eye on that too.  Just in case.

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
::looks around at the XO::

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
XO: I have been ma'am.  Oh and ma'am, do you have a moment for a personal question?

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
CO: Helm feels great skipper, feel like a few barrel rolls?

SO  says:
CSO: Aye ma'am I will see if there are any distinguishing features to the ghosts
 
XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
::starts to move away, then stops and looks back at Bell:: CTO: Depends on how personal

CEO_LtJG_Heller says:
*OPS*:  Nothing comes to mind that would work the Del's shields.  The type of shields we have make masking the difficult.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
::chuckles:: CIV: if you spill my coffee, you'll be scrubbing the nacelles for a week.

CMO_Cmdr_Hunter says:
::uses a hypo spray to administer an anti-emetic to the Ensign to forestall any more vomiting::

Ens_Sec_Tackleburry says:
CMO: I was on patrol in the lower decks, somebody pushed me to the ground then ran off.  Before I could get up I started feeling really bad and had pain in my back :: vomits again ::

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
::smiles at the skipper::

CMO_Cmdr_Hunter says:
::hands him an emesis basin::

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
::nods to her SO::  SO: Don't forget to check both the upper and lower frequency extremes

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
XO: I was just going to ask if you were current on your hand to hand combat.  I was going to suggest that we have a practice session last night, ma'am.

SO says:
CSO: Aye, ma'am ::goes about her work::

OPS_Ltjg_Twelk says:
*CEO* : Then what about some radiation maybe a low level leak near the front of the ship  that can drift back over it?

CMO_Cmdr_Hunter says:
ENS:: ::scans his abdomen:: when was the last time you had something to eat?

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
::adjusts the ships speed ever so slightly::

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
CTO: That might be a good idea, Ensign.  Set up a time for some of the tactical and security people to do some extra training.  We won't tell them that I'll be joining them.  ::flexes her fists:: Might be a good thing to let off some steam

Ens_Sec_Tackleburry says:
CMO: At the beginning of my shift.  I felt fine till I was hit, doc can you do something about the pain in my back?

CMO_Cmdr_Hunter says:
ENS:: Lets have you Roll over, Ill get a look at your back?

OPS_Ltjg_Twelk says:
:: sees the alert from the waste management system:: *CEO* chief do you have some one you can send to waste management? I am getting a problem alert on my console.

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
CTO: Is that all, Ensign?

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
XO: I will arrange that for tonight, however I am sure you recall that we had a nice little practice last night.  Took most of the evening, if my memory serves.  ::winks slightly::

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
XO: Yes, ma'am.
 
Info: The ensign’s uniform is shredded in places.  The comm. badge is missing which is to be expected from an attacker, the rest of the shreds look like restraining holds and in his back are to round perforations over 3/8” in diameter each.

CEO_LtJG_Heller says:
*OPS*: I'm sure I can find someone or I can take care of it.  What seems to be the problem?

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
::looks closer at Bell:: CTO: We had practice last night?  ::an eyebrow goes up and her antennae go down flat on her head::

CMO_Cmdr_Hunter says:
Computer:: Location of ensign Tackleburry’s comm. badge?

OPS_Ltjg_Twelk says:
*CEO* Not really sure it only says that there is a problem down there it isn't being specific.

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
SO: You know I sure miss the days when we could actively search for cloak ships.  ::sighs::

CMO_Cmdr_Hunter says:
::scans the perforations and takes a sample of blood for screening::

CEO_LtJG_Heller says:
*OPS*:  I'll head down there and see what is going on.

OPS_Ltjg_Twelk says:
*CEO*: thanks Chief.

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
::clears his throat:: XO: Ma'am, only if you don't want the whole ship to think that you were in an EO's quarters, last night. ma'am.

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
<SO> CSO: When was that ma'am?

CEO_LtJG_Heller says:
::heads out of Engineering headed toward waste management.::

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
::listens in:: OPS: A problem with waste management?

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
SO: The good old days along the Romulan border.

Computer says:
CMO: The comm. badge is in waste management chute.

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
::smirks a bit as she continues to man the sensors::

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
::listens to the bridge chatter taking mental notes::

CEO_LtJG_Heller says:
::enters waste management and begins to sweep the area with his tricorder::

OPS_Ltjg_Twelk says:
CO: Captain 4 minutes till our next schedule contact with our Escort. yes ma'am I am getting a problem alert from there. The CEO is checking it out now.

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
::Clams down:: CTO: I see.  ::::relaxes:: Thanks, but I don't think it would work, Ensign.  Too many people claim to have seen me

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
CTO: Thank you anyway.  ::small smile:: I appreciate it

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
OPS: Thank you.

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
::shrugs:: XO: Very well ma'am.

CMO_Cmdr_Hunter says:
*CTO* Ensign Bell to sickbay immediately

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
::nods and then turns and moves off to the SCI station::

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
CIV: Ensign...prepare to contact B'Rel's ship.

CEO_LtJG_Heller says:
*CO/OPS*:  There seems to be a blockage in chute 4 of waste management, going to see if I can find what it is.

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
CO: Aye Skipper ::readies the subspace link::

CMO_Cmdr_Hunter says:
::scans the Ensign again for the toxins in his system::

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
::antennae go up as she overhears the comm. to Bell::

OPS_Ltjg_Twelk says:
*CEO* Aye chief make sure it is offline before you enter.

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
::nods to the XO as she draws near the console::  XO: Commander.

CEO_LtJG_Heller says:
::heads toward chute 4 and takes the chute offline::

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
::nods:: *CMO* On my way.  *CPO_Fay* Report for bridge duty, post haste.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
*CEO*: Keep us posted, Lt.

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
::notices the XO's pause::

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
::stops at the SCI board:: CSO: Commander.  ::indicates the board:: Anything interesting?

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
Out loud: If it isn't one thing it's another.

TO_CPO_Fay says:
::walks out of the turbolift:: CTO: Yes sir.

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
CO: Now skipper you’d go barmy if it was quiet around here

CMO_Cmdr_Hunter says:
*XO*: Commander, one of the security agents was just attacked, his COM badge is in waste management, If he was attacked i suggest caution there may be another one down there

CEO_LtJG_Heller says:
::brings the chute offline and heads to the access port.::

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
::smiles:: Fay: I'm needed in Sickbay.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
CIV: Sometimes I would like to test that theory, Ensign.

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
::shakes her head::  XO: Nothing new.  The occasional ghost on the sensors.  I have Riley here trying to determine anything that might stick out that we could use to tell us if .... ::hears the CMO over the comm. and stops::

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
CO: I can always change course for Risa

TO_CPO_Fay says:
::takes over the Tac console::

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
*CMO* Understood Doctor.  ::Moves a step closer to the CTO:: CTO: Bell, be careful and be sure you have back up

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
CTO: The CEO is down there.   Contact him and have him wait for a security team.

CEO_LtJG_Heller says:
::opens the hatch and see some blockage near the top::

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
::Moves to the turbolift and orders it to sickbay::  XO: Its sickbay...

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
::listens to the skippers comments::

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
CO: An infiltrator?

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
::pauses the turbolift and looks confused:: CO: Ma'am?

CEO_LtJG_Heller says:
*CO*: Seems to be some sort of blockage in the chute will have to dig at it a bit to get it out.
 
Action : As the CEO clears the debris he finds the blockage in the chute, its a dead body.

CMO_Cmdr_Hunter says:
::sees the results:: *XO* Ugh Commander, the Tox screen comes back to a Red Eye Tarantula, From the south American continent on earth, and judging from the marks on the ensign back, its a big bugger.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
*CEO*: A security officer was attacked down there recently.  Call for a security team before you go any further.

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
*Computer*: Run a level 4 security scan of the whole ship

CMO_Cmdr_Hunter says:
::administers the anti venom to the Ensign, along with some topical analgesic cream to the wounds before beginning dermal regeneration

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
::shrugs and activates the turbolift heading for sickbay::

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
CTO: Head down to waste management and see what is going on there.

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
::As the doors close:: CO: Yes ma'am.

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
::calls up information on that type of spider and ways to exterminate it::

CEO_LtJG_Heller says:
::flinches as he sees the body in the tube.:: *CO*:  There is a body in the chute ma'am.  Seems to be what caused the blockage.

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
::moves back to Tarrez-Hunter:: CSO: I think I get the idea on the sensor ghost.  See if you can ::pauses:: *CMO* Seems that we got a stowaway.  Better inform the CEO and CTO to run checks on the ship.  Just in case we have more of them

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
*CMO* I've been ordered to waste management,  What did you need?

CMO_Cmdr_Hunter says:
*CTO*:: I assume you heard my communication to the XO?

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
*CEO*: We'll have OPS beam it to a containment field in the cargo bay.
 
Action: As the CMO moves his diagnostic equipment towards the bites he can see a thick hair growing around them, it seems to be fading with the anti-venom though

CMO_Cmdr_Hunter says:
Aloud:: what the hell?

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
::alters the destination, and checks his sidearm than waits:: *CMO* Something about a large spider?
 
Action: The Sec guy screams in pain then passes out

CEO_LtJG_Heller says:
*CTO*:  Ensign I'm in waste management and I've found a body in one of the chutes, I think you should come down here.

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
CSO: Guess we'll have some more excitement besides Klingons and Romulans, hmmmm

OPS_Ltjg_Twelk says:
:: starts the Transport of the body:: CO: Working on it now Ma'am.

CMO_Cmdr_Hunter says:
*CTO* Yes! and for some reason I think its been augmented, Do not Under any circumstances let it bite you

CMO_Cmdr_Hunter says:
::plucks a hair from the ensigns back to test it::

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
OPS: Lt, create a level 10 containment field in the cargo bay after you get the body out.

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
XO: Ma'am if we were to get everyone out of the waste chutes we could flood it with a gas to try and kill them off with it.
 
CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
CO: Captain I recommend we lock the ship down and find out whatever this thing is. We should also contact our escorts in case they have one of these things onboard as well
 
Action : The body materializes in the cargo bay in containment.

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
*CEO* I am already on my way. *Security* Send Itai and Adalhard to meet me at waste management, tell them to bring three compression rifles.

OPS_Ltjg_Twelk says:
CO: aye Captain already on it. Shall I contact sick bay as well and inform the CMO?

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
::checks the scans again::

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
::thinks and then nods:: CSO: That might work ::turns slightly:: CO: Ma'

CEO_LtJG_Heller says:
::looks into the chute after the body is beamed out::

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
am.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
CIV: Let's not go to overboard.  After all...we were just in that area.  It could have come from any of our gear.

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
<Edit, put my last two lines together::

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
*CMO* I could have figured it out, sir.

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
CO: Better safe than sorry skipper

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
OPS: Yes, and have the doctor do an autopsy and see if they can determine who it is.

Security says:
*CTO* They are on the way.

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
CO: Commander Tarrez-Hunter has an idea about flooding the waste chutes with gas.  After we get any of our people out first

OPS_Ltjg_Twelk says:
CO: Captain it is time for the incoming hail from our escort. They are de-cloaking now.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
XO/CSO: That sounds like a good idea.  Why don't you two work on it and coordinate with security, engineering and OPS

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
::steps out of the turbolift and looks around hand on his sidearm:: CEO: Where are you.

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
::sees the de-cloaking ship and looks for more ghost while their friend is there::

CMO_Cmdr_Hunter says:
*CTO*: No need for back talk Ensign ::stresses the rank:: Your security officer, has course black hair growing around the wounds, The last thing we need is for you Or anyone else to be turned into one of those things.
 
CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
::establishes the link with the escorts::

CEO_LtJG_Heller says:
::steps out from behind a bulkhead::  CTO:  Back here ensign.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
CIV: Do you have the latest status report for them ready?

OPS_Ltjg_Twelk says:
*CMO*: Doc we have a body in Cargo bay 2 inside a containment field and the CO wants you to do an autopsy on it.

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
CO: Link established skipper. Aye skipper ready to send when your ready

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
::doesn’t respond to the CMO's message, per orders as he moves towards the CEO:: CEO: How many people are normally on this level?

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
CSO: You get the gas ready and I'll get the word out for the crew to stay away from the waste chutes

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
CIV: Send it and forward any report from them to my console here.
 
Action: Commander B`Rels ship decloaks off the port side of the Del

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
::sends the latest status report::

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
*CEO/CTO*: I need all personnel to be moved out of the waste management chutes.  Immediately as we will be flooding the  system with Thuridium gas to try and kill the spider or spiders off.  Please inform me when this is done.

CMO_Cmdr_Hunter says:
*OPS* Keep the cargo bay at a low temperature, as soon as I finish with the security officer I'll head down there,  I assume there’s a containment field set up?

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
::waits for a reply::
 
Action: Incoming text message arrives to OPS from B`Rel

CEO_LtJG_Heller says:
CTO:  Usually not very many.  Usually only for maintenance and repairs usually.

OPS_Ltjg_Twelk says:
*CMO* Aye Doc just inform me when you are headed there

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
CO/XO: We still have a sensor ghost to our aft.

CMO_Cmdr_Hunter says:
*OPS* I will Lieutenant Thank you.

PO_Itai says:
::steps off the turbolift with Crewman Adalhard, carrying three rifles between them:: CTO: Sir.  ::hands over the rifle::

OPS_Ltjg_Twelk says:
CO: captain I have an incoming message from B`Rel transferring it to your console now.
 
CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
CIV: Tell B`Rel about the sensor ghost.

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
::Smiles at Tarrez-Hunter:: CSO: Good work Commander

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
::nods to the skipper and sends the message::

TO_CPO_Fay says:
::notes the ghost's location and signature::

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
SO: Flag that ghost... let it be our reference to compare with.
 
Action : Commander B`Rel answers the Del by cloaking and a one word reply BATTLESTATIONS

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
::looks at the message and sits up:: XO: Take us to red alert...battle stations, everyone!

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
::takes her stations to red alert::  CO: Still use passive scans ma'am?

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
::takes the rifle:: Itai/Adalhard: Stay with me. ::looks up as the alert sirens::  CEO: I guess seal the level and flood it with gas on our way out, sir?

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
XO: Until Ensign Bell reports back, take over tactical.

OPS_Ltjg_Twelk says:
:: starts moving personal from all non-essential areas and reroutes the power from those areas::

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
::Moves to her chair in two steps, hits the comm. link on her chair::   Ship wide: Red alert, All hands to battle stations.  This is NOT a drill.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
CSO: No...once we go to red alert they will see our status.  Let's find them first.

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
SO: Prepare the gas.

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
Self: Damn

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
CO: Aye

TO_CPO_Fay says:
::blinks at the CO, than steps back looking frustrated::

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
CO: Aye.

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
::Repeats the red alert message and then moves to the TAC station::
 
CEO_LtJG_Heller says:
CTO:  I suppose we should.  ::heads toward the door::

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
::prepares to take evasive actions::

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
::fingers move over the board::

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
All: Okay folks...let's go hunting.

CMO_Cmdr_Hunter says:
*CSO/XO* Commanders, I've just scanned the hair that started growing from around the wounds in Ensigns back, they come up with Human and Arachnid DNA, and judging from the degradation of the root and poison, and my anti-venom, the attack took place at 0300 this morning

OPS_Ltjg_Twelk says:
:: sees if he can pick up some comms from the other ship::

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
*CEO/CTO*: Did you hear my comm. to you?
 
Action: There is a brief de-cloaking behind the Del and disruptor fire.  The hull cameras show the outline of  K'Tinga class taking fire then turning, its cloak fully restoring after altering course.  B`Rel’s ship recloaks

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
::watches Dog scurry under the center chair out of the way::

CEO_LtJG_Heller says:
*CSO*: Yes sir we are leaving this area now.

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
::A beep on her board catches her attention:: Out loud: Incoming

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
::throws the Del into a corkscrew away from the attacker::

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
*CEO*: Let me know when you are cleared

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
::moves into the lift last, rifle trained on the corridor:: CEO: I'd say scan the area for life signs.  Make sure no one is left in there.

CMO_Cmdr_Hunter says:
ENS: How do you feel now Ensign?

Ens_Sec_Tackleburry says:
:: is so relieved from not being sick and in pain just fell off in a deep sleep without acknowledging the CMO ::

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
::scans the area of the ship that fired, then moves the scan outward, hoping to find something that will help them fire back::

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
*CMO*: Are you suggesting what I think you are suggesting?

Ens_Sec_Tackleburry says:
CMO: Better but I am really tired and my mouth tastes like metal....yuck

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
XO: It looks like B`Rel found our ghost.  Target the last trajectory that the K'Tinga class was heading for.  let's see if we can help smoke him out.

CEO_LtJG_Heller says:
::reaches the turbolift and holds the door while he scans the area for anymore life signs::  *CSO*:  We are at the lift just making a last scan of the area to make sure everyone is out.

CMO_Cmdr_Hunter says:
*CSO*:: If this thing indeed came from south America, it may be the RSE's {{OOC: Romulan Star Empire’s}} last ditch attempt at wiping us out

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
*CEO*: Understood.

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
::flattens out the Del and swings her around::

OPS_Ltjg_Twelk says:
XO: Maybe we can try a tachyon pulse scan to find it ?

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
::stands in the turbolift::*CMO* What is the name of the officer who was attacked?

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
CIV: Keep us steady ...we want them to uncloak to take a shot.

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
::nods to her SO to prepare::

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
CO: Aye skipper

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
CO: Aye, Captain  ::works out a shooting solution::  Ready Ma'am

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
::lays in a lame duck course::

CMO_Cmdr_Hunter says:
*CTO* Ensign Tackleburry, Just out of curiosity what was his assigned patrol last night around 0300?

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
XO: Fire at will...but first send out a short warning volley for B`Rel to get out of the way.
 
Action : The Del shakes violently and the crew is tossed around.  Power levels fluctuate, but systems stay online

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
OPS: Prepare the tachyon burst...if that shadow shows up...blast them.

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
*CMO*: Do you think... ::grabs the console as the ship shakes::

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
CO: Understood.  ::taps the board.  A short volley goes out and then she shoots at her best guess for the other ship::

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
Self: wonderful

OPS_Ltjg_Twelk says:
CO: Aye Captain. :: sets up the tachyon burst:: Ready when you are.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
::barely holds onto her seat:: CIV: Report!  What did we just hit?

CMO_Cmdr_Hunter says:
::damn near topples over, but grabs onto the biobed::

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
::holds the ship steady::
 
Action : The body of the dead crewman is slammed against a bulkhead from the shaking.

TO_CPO_Fay says:
::holds onto a bulkhead watching the XO silently::

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
::grabs the board as the ship shakes::  CO: Shots away, Ma'am.

OPS_Ltjg_Twelk says:
:: reroutes more power to the shields::

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
XO/OPS: Send a tachyon burst on a arc around where the impact was.

CMO_Cmdr_Hunter says:
ENS:; I'm going to keep you here in quarantine till we find out what bit you, If you need anything just give a yell ok? ::sets up a quarantine around the Ensign::

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
::rights herself::  Computer: Scan for life signs and report how many crew are unaccounted for.

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
TO_Fay: Cover TAC 2.  Scan for any gas emissions from the Klingon ships.  Maybe we can get a lead on one of them that way

OPS_Ltjg_Twelk says:
CO: Aye Captain :: sends the Tachyon burst in the arc:: Sending Now.

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
CO: Helm is holding steady skipper

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
::Works the board:: CO: Aye

CEO_LtJG_Heller says:
CTO:  As far as I can tell this area is clear.  Now I've got to get back to engineering.

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
CEO: Agreed.  Seal it, sir.

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
::scans the ships interior for a arachnid/human DNA::

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
XO: Be prepared to identify and fire as soon as the burst hits them.  Just make certain it isn't B`Rel's ship
 
Action: The K`Tinga is exposed by the tachyon emissions as well as damage from impact.  It alters course and flees

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
CO: Aye.  I wouldn't want to have B`Rel come after me for missing and getting her
 
CEO_LtJG_Heller says:
::seals off the deck as the turbolift door closes::  *CSO*:  Waste management is clear and sealed.

TO_CPO_Fay says:
::moves wordlessly to the secondary Tac station and begins looking for unaccountable gas emissions.

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
*CEO*: Thank you.

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
::fires at the K'Tinga::

CEO_LtJG_Heller says:
::exits turbolift at engineering and heads to the main console::

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
::sees the ship:: XO: Let her have it, Commander.  I do not appreciate her putting dents into my ship.  Let's make her pay for that.

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
CO: Will do

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
::still on the lift heading for the bridge *CMO* I will get back to you regarding Tackleburry's patrol.

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
::fires more at the fleeing K'Tinga::

OPS_Ltjg_Twelk says:
:: adds some power to the weapons::

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
::holds the course steady::
 
Action : The volley from the Del never has to reach the K`Tinga, it set off a plasma leak.  The plasma ignited and like a fuse burned to its source.  Nothing could be done the large Klingon ship explodes incinerating the Romulans that stole it

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
Itai/Adalhard: Return to security, inform them that I want all personnel to move in pairs.

CEO_LtJG_Heller says:
::looks over the damage reports coming in:: *CO*:  That volley did some damage to our aft hull, I'm sending repair teams now.

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
CO: The K'Tinga is destroyed, Ma'am

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
XO: Nice shooting boss

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
CO/XO:  Waste system is clear of crew.  Permission to gas the system?

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
XO: Good shooting, Commander.

OPS_Ltjg_Twelk says:
:: starts rerouting power back to their normal areas::

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
CIV/OPS: Well done gentlemen.

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
::steps off the turbolift, eyes the XO at his station, and Fay at the second station for a moment than starts silently towards an open modular station::

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
CSO: Do it...let's get rid of both pests at the same time.

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
CIV: It would have been better if I could have only wounded it.

OPS_Ltjg_Twelk says:
CO: Just doing our jobs Captain.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
*CEO*: Estimated time of repair?

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
::orders the SO to release the gas and monitors it as it moves through the system::

CEO_LtJG_Heller says:
*CO*:  Won't know for sure till my teams get into place and get a better looks at things.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
XO: We'll catch the next one.

CMO_Cmdr_Hunter says:
::leaves orders for the Ensign to be monitored and checked every 15 minutes and heads to the Cargo bay to begin his autopsy::

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
*CEO*:Can the repairs be done at warp?

OPS_Ltjg_Twelk says:
CO: We have an incoming message from B`Rel.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
OPS: On screen

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
::activates the modular station and sets it to a tactical overview::

OPS_Ltjg_Twelk says:
:: put the com on screen:: CO: On screen Captain.

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
XO: I recommend a detail sweep of the ship's interior for arachnid bio-signs.  It will take some time, but I think necessary.

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
::sees Bell and motions him over:: CTO: We were fired on by the K'Tinga.  We fired back, even though I missed we did manage to ignite its plasma leak.  Ship destroyed.  All hands destroyed

CEO_LtJG_Heller says:
*CO*:  It should not be a problem though we will have to drop to warp 5 or the stress will be too much.
 
XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
CSO: I agree with you.  Go ahead

CMO_Cmdr_Hunter says:
::arrives at the cargo bay sets up his gear and begins his Autopsy::

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
::moves back to the Tac station after deactivating the modular one:: XO: Very good ma'am.

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
*CEO*: Do what you can as quickly as you can.
 
Cmdr_B`Rel says:
COM: Delphyne: CO: Well done captain.  Your crew fights well.  Can you continue at warp to the rendezvous

TO_CPO_Fay says:
::continues looking for unaccountable gas::

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
SO: Start the sweep and go deck by deck. You will find some reads in a few places like the Science Lab 2, but those are logged in the ship's computer as cargo.

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
::drops the speed to warp 5::

SO says:
CSO: Aye ma'am.

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
::nods at Bell, then moves to finish her round::

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
::sits back in her chair and relaxes a bit:: COM: B`Rel, we'll be there.  Although a little slower until we have repairs done.  Nice shot, although I was very glad you didn't miss that close to my hull.

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
CO: Speed is dropped to warp 5 and holding steady skipper

Cmdr_B`Rel says:
COM: Delphyne: CO: Experience has taught me a few things captain.  We will maintain escort position.  Q’apla captain :: cuts comm. ::

CTO_Ens_Bell says:
::eyes Fay for a moment:: TO_Fay: You are relieved, I would like a word when I've finished my duty shift.

CEO_LtJG_Heller says:
*CO*:  I'll get things done as quickly as possible.

OPS_Ltjg_Twelk says:
:: goes back to monitoring systems as well as comms::

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
Out loud: Ah...Klingons...can't live with 'em...can't live without. ::grins::

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
XO: Might I also recommend a manual scan of the waste system once the gas has filled and been purged?

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
::makes her way towards the Conn:: CO: At least she doesn't carry on and on Ma'am

CEO_LtJG_Heller says:
::sends repair crews to the aft hull section then grabs his kit and heads to meet them.::

CSO_Cmdr_Tarrez-Hunter says:
XO: Someone in there with a tricorder

XO_LtCmdr_Llynisika says:
CSO: Do it.  Let me know when you are done then we can get on that, Commander

CO_Capt_K`Beth says:
XO: Now let's get rid of these bugs and we'll be golden. In the meantime...I'm going to get me a fresh cup of coffee.
 
Info: Repairs begin on the Delphyne.  They will be completed before reaching the rendezvous point with the Klingon platform.  The autopsy will be done by then.  Preliminary findings are that the departed crewman has been drained of all his blood.

CIV_Ens_McQueen says:
::lays in the course ::
