TO_Hawkes:
Mcleod: Wanna scan that shadow in the badlands?

CIV_McLeo:
:: takes a final reading:: CO: Ah, Sir.  The shadow..I can't make anything out other than it's very large, sir.

CNS_Jiosa:
MO: Can you brief me on the situation

OPS_Lynam:
CO: The deflector has been operational for several minutes sir, sorry forgot to tell you that.

XO_Wall:
::sits down on biobed::

TO_Hawkes:
CO: Aye sir, good to go!

ENGMac:
::thinks to self:: those ships better no have one scratch on them

FCO_Nichl:
CO: We need to back out a little sir.  A series of plasma bursts is heading for us.

CO_Grant:
_TAC: target the shadow with photon torpedoes

ENGMac:
<ENG>:I need a crew of 4 down in SB2 with me

CO_Grant:
_FCO: Prepare a course to back us away from the shadow under impulse

CNS_Jiosa:
MO: Sure Doc just tell me what you want

TO_Hawkes:
CO: Aye sir! Tagerting! ::Tagets shadow for Photorps::

MO-Lea:
CNS: If you could over-see Ensign Watson's treatment?::Motions to Ens::

ENGMac:
<ENGMac> aye sir sending a team now

CNS_Jiosa:
MO: Yes Sir ::serious::

XO_Wall:
MO: Whats the Doctor's condition ::waits sitting on biobed::

ENGMac:
<ENG>: thanks much appreciated

CO_Grant:
_CIV_MCLeod: Is that probe ready?

CNS_Jiosa:
::goes over to Ens Watson's biobed::

CIV_McLeo:
CO:I think the probe should be ready, sir.

OPS_Lynam:
:;Beams CTO and CSO to sickbay::

ENGMac:
Computer: run level 1 diagnostics on both the Brege and Europa

TO_Hawkes:
::Beings up Probe configuration on tac console::

CTO_Psion:
*MO*  Doctor, the CSO is in dire need of medical attention.

TO_Hawkes:
::Punches some buttons at TAC::

OPS_Lynam:
*MO*: Doctor, please give us a status report of all injured senior staff as soon as possible.

CIV_McLeo:
TO: Just tell me when you've got the coordinates locked in  ::smiles nervously::

MO-Lea:
::replaces the tricorder and removes a small instruments. Aims it at XO's rib:: XO: He, and several other crew members have become ill-- apparently from either the effects of the plasma, or a reaction to the sipriline.  ::hears CTO. Sets the instrument down:: CNS: Will you please see to the commander?

CO_Grant:
_TAC: fire the probe when ready

TO_Hawkes:
McLeod: Ok, fire the probe when your ready.....and then be sure to patch the data-stream to your console, and to the backup files.

LtJgCray:
::Scans the plasma disturbances::

MO-Lea:
*CTO*: I will be there immediately. Where is he?    *OPS*: Just a moment.    ::runs out the door::

CNS_Jiosa:
MO: Yes ::moves over to the XO::

TO_Hawkes:
CO: Aye sir...firing probe:: Fires probe::

ENGMac:
<team>: I need two on the Brege and the other two on the Europa and check them out and find anything and I mean anything unusal

ACTDNicke:
ACTION: readings from the probe show the  cloud showing  anomolous energy readings and something...........else.........

CO_Grant:
_::observes the probe launched::

ENGMac:
<ENGMac>: aye sir

MO-Lea:
::runs back into sickbay::

CNS_Jiosa:
::gets a tool, that begins to heal the XO ribs with a slight tingling sesation::

OPS_Lynam:
*EO*: In all the excitement you probably forgot to begin modifications to the Platee didn't you?

CIV_McLeo:
::nods and turns to console:: Data link is established, the readings are coming in.

TO_Hawkes:
::Patches probe data to TAC.::

CO_Grant:
_CIV_Mcleo: Do you have any results?

LtJgCray:
CO:  Receiving telemetry from the probe.  There are energy and possibly matter readings.  Perhaps there is an object generating power out there.

MO-Lea:
::For only a moment, closes her eyes and collects her thoughts. Then looks around and runs to the CSO Biobed and begins scans:: *CTO*: What happened?

ENGMac:
*OPS*: both the Platte and Rio Coco recieved their mods along with the Europa a week ago

XO_Wall:
::pain begins to dissappear to his chest::

TO_Hawkes:
::Cross-refences probe data with any know ship signatures...prioity Cardassian::

MO-Lea:
<Nurse>::Stands near the CNS to offer any needed assitance::

CO_Grant:
_cray: Interesting

CNS_Jiosa:
::puts the tool done:: XO: How does it feel?

ENGMac:
::enters Brege::

CTO_Psion:
MO:  A plasma surge hit the shuttle and momentarily incapacitated the inertial dampeners.  We were subsequently injured.

CIV_McLeo:
CO: There are some inconsistencies in the readings..compensating

CO_Grant:
_CIV_MCLeo: direct the probe to circle the shadow and give us the dimensions

OPS_Lynam:
*EO*: No, the modifications for rough flight.  Harnesses etc.

XO_Wall:
CNS: Great as his move around, you'd make a great doctor counsler ::grins::

CIV_McLeo:
CO: yes, sir.  :: programs a flight path for the probe::

XO_Wall:
CNS: thank you

CNS_Jiosa:
XO: Well i did for a short time ::grins back::  anything else hurt feel dizzy, tired etc. ?

CO_Grant:
_*EO*: Search for sensor data and plasma samples from the runabouts Brege and Europa. If find any forward the data to the bridge

MO-Lea:
*OPS*: The CMO is incapacitated,  Commander Wall suffered a few injuries that have now been treated, Mr. Poulos seems to have sustained mulitple injuries and is unconcious, and Psion is also injured.  ::Turns to CTO and begins to scan him with a tricorder:: CTO: You should also take a seat. Like that one. ::Points to another Biobed::

OPS_Lynam:
CO: Well sir, if we're going to mess with this thing then lets saunter over there and look out the window.

ACTDNicke:
ACTION: the probe begins its flight path  around the shadow,  the shadow picks op the energy from the probe and 'swallows" it.  Now awakened..begins to enlarge and move toward the Delphyne as it picks up its energy readings..................

CO_Grant:
_OPS: THat is what we will do in effect

CTO_Psion:
MO:  Aye.  ::Moves over to biobed::

XO_Wall:
CNS: oh I didnt know, no im fine nothing else is wrong

TO_Hawkes:
::Tactical scan of shadow::

CO_Grant:
_fco: Now moves us back 1/2 impulse

CIV_McLeo:
CO: ah, sir.  I've got elevated energy readings from that thing

CO_Grant:
_FCO: engage!

OPS_Lynam:
CO: I have another reccomendation!  :;Watches the shadow come closer::

TO_Hawkes:
::Finger hovers over red-alert button::

CO_Grant:
_TAC: aim the deflector at that shadow!

FCO_Nichl:
CO: Aye Sir.

LtJgCray:
CO:  Trouble!  Probe has been drained of energy and that thing is on an intercept course.

TO_Hawkes:
CO:Aye sir! ::Repositions deflector ::

CIV_McLeo:
CO:  the probe has been destroyed, sir.

OPS_Lynam:
:;Readies ship for red alert::

TO_Hawkes:
CO: Deflector ready sir!

ENGMac:
*OPS* aye didn't know you needed that done, will get on it right away *CO*: aye sir will report anything if found

MO-Lea:
::takes a deep breath, retracts the biobed console above CSO and begins treatment with Delactovine::

CO_Grant:
_*EO*: acknowledged

Ens_Watso:
::Wakes up in biobed::

CNS_Jiosa:
xo: good then i think you can go unless... MO: Any reason i shouldnt let this  guy outta here

CO_Grant:
_TAC: redalert!

XO_Wall:
CNS: ::stands up:: CNS: again thank you.

ACTDNicke:
ACTION: the shadow begins to surround the delphyne

TO_Hawkes:
*SHipwide*:REDALERT!!!!

OPS_Lynam:
:;Punches a button, sending power to red alert modes::

LtJgCray:
CO:  We have been surrounded!

CO_Grant:
_Cray: I see that

ACTDNicke:
ACTION: system power begins to fluctuate

FCO_Nichl:
::sets station to red alert::

MO-Lea:
::Steps to the CTO's position, activates the console:: CNS: He should rest in sickbay and be over-seen for at least 16 hours.

CIV_McLeo:
CO: sir, if what happened to that probe...

ENGMac:
::along with the 4 enineering crew, heading to ME::

ACTDNicke:
ACTION: the delphyne begins losign power

CO_Grant:
_CIV_Mcleod : moniter the sensors

CTO_Psion:
::Notices power fluctuations::

MO-Lea:
::sees XO:: XO: That means we get to enjoy your company that much longer, understood?

TO_Hawkes:
CO:I recomend cutting all power sir!

CO_Grant:
_::hmmm ::

FCO_Nichl:
CO: Sir, permission to try to "punch through" before we loose more power.

OPS_Lynam:
::Shunts power into backup batteries and takes them off line when full::

CNS_Jiosa:
XO: Looks like you will be staying for another spell

CO_Grant:
_OPS: Make changes to conserve power

MO-Lea:
::turns back to CTO:: CTO: You seem to have a fractured arm, and several bruises.

OPS_Lynam:
CO: I'm trying sir.  That thing is like a leach

XO_Wall:
MO: ::hears red alert, begins to head toward exit:: MO: keep me informed of all personel I have to get to the bridge

CO_Grant:
_FCO: set a course to exit the shadow by flying through it under warp

CTO_Psion:
MO:  That is obvious.

CIV_McLeo:
::nods:: CO: power has been drained, We are at 67.4% normal power

TO_Hawkes:
CO: As an option....if needed the crew could get into pressure suits, and we wouldn't need any power for 16 hours....just a thought.

CO_Grant:
_tac: Have any weapons been fired on us

FCO_Nichl:
CO: Aye sir.

FCO_Nichl:
::sets direction and speed::

TO_Hawkes:
CO: Negative....unless you count the power drain.

ENGMac:
::enters ME and heads to CEO station::

LtJgCray:
CO:  Sir, I recommend a discharge of our plasma, since it has not affected the badlands it's a good bet plasma is not it's main diet.

FCO_Nichl:
CO: Ready to punch through on your command sir.

OPS_Lynam:
*MO*: If the shields are dropped, how long til we begin to suffer plasma effects?

MO-Lea:
::Checks on CSO's vitals' display::  CTO: Mr. Poulos has suffered a concuscion and two fractured bones.      XO: Where are you going!?!?

CO_Grant:
_hawkes: acknowledged

ENGMac:
::making sure that the warp core is stable::

XO_Wall:
::exits sickbay runs down corridor toward TL::

CO_Grant:
_::hmm plasma discharge::

XO_Wall:
TL: bridge

CNS_Jiosa:
MO: SHould i chase down the xo? 

OPS_Lynam:
CO: That's not a bad idead sir.  The plasma I mean.

CO_Grant:
_*EO*: prepare to discharge plasma in conjunction with fco

ENGMac:
*CO*

FCO_Nichl:
CO: sir?

CIV_McLeo:
CO: the shadow's energy readings are growing, sir

MO-Lea:
*OPS*: It's difficult to know exactly.  Most of us could probably stand five minutes, eight at most, before we all begin to succum. But those that seem to be especially prone to it would become incapacitaated in three or four minutes..     CNS: Please do. He shouldn't be running around in that condition.

CO_Grant:
_FCO: Prepare to jump to warp 1, as soon as engineers are ready

ENGMac:
<aye sir>

XO_Wall:
*CO* im on my way to the bridge

FCO_Nichl:
CO: Aye sir.

OPS_Lynam:
*MO*: Acknowleged

TO_Hawkes:
CO: Another option; If we can punch through this this OR we power down, we could send one of Mac's shuttles  out there set to over-load on the warp core... and that might lure it away from us.

CO_Grant:
_*XO*: Acknowledged

CNS_Jiosa:
::hads out to nearest sickbay tl notices it left::

Ens_Watso:
::Sits up in the biobed::

OPS_Lynam:
CO: If we drop shields it may save us power.  May not, I don't know.

CO_Grant:
_Hawkes: sounds drastic.

XO_Wall:
::TL comes to a stop door opens, enters onto the bridge::

ENGMac:
*CO*: ready here

MO-Lea:
::returns to CSO Side, begins to repair fractured rib and leg:: Ensign Watson: Glad to see you up and about.

CIV_McLeo:
CO:  if we could fool it into thinking we're powerless, it might move on

CNS_Jiosa:
::takes next turbolift up to bridge::

OPS_Lynam:
CO: I was also considering a decoy idea.  We would have to power down and fire something away from us that generates power.

TO_Hawkes:
CO: just options sir...your the CO...that's why you get all the "lonely at the top" pay.

CO_Grant:
_FCO: Release plasma then punch it . course hyperbolic like this :: hands a pad to fco::

MO-Lea:
::Walks to Ensign. carefully pushes him back to a lying position by the shoulders:: Ensign Watson: Now, lets see you stay put. We understand?

XO_Wall:
CO: whats going on? ::as he sits in his seat::

CO_Grant:
_OPS: Interesting but similar to tac

FCO_Nichl:
:takes padd from CO and sets course accordingly::

CNS_Jiosa:
::exits tl onto bridge:: XO: The doctor told you to stay put for another 16 hours

TO_Hawkes:
*EO*:What's our power status?

CO_Grant:
_XO: well we have been sucked into something

ENGMac:
*TO*: I'm reading it at 45%

CO_Grant:
_fco: ENgage!

ACTDNicke:
ACTION: power continues to drain on the delphyne to dangerous levels

LtJgCray:
::Scans with a tachyon beam::

OPS_Lynam:
CO: I know, but it's a valid idea.  If we don't get loose we won't have to simulate being powered down.

FCO_Nichl:
CO Aye sir.

FCO_Nichl:
::releases plasma and heads out a warp 1::

XO_Wall:
CNS: what when was that said? I am fine

MO-Lea:
::turns to CTO. Notices display flicker:: *OPS*: Are we haaving trouble with power?

CIV_McLeo:
CO: sir, maybe if we sent a probe out there...kind of like throwing bread to the pigeons in the park

OPS_Lynam:
*MO*: You could say that Doc.  Stand by.

CO_Grant:
_CIV_MCLEOD: standby on the probes

ENGMac:
<eng emergency teams> get ready, because your going to be needed today!

CIV_McLeo:
::nods:: CO: yes, sir.

CTO_Psion:
MO:  What is the status of my arm?

CNS_Jiosa:
*MO* wOULd you kindly repeat your last words to the XO

ENGMac:
<ENGMac>: aye sir

CO_Grant:
_fco: are we moving?

ENGMac:
*CO*: all emergency crews ready

CO_Grant:
_*EO*: acknowledged

MO-Lea:
::realizes they are busy:: *OPS*: Alright. Just remember I need power to keep these officer up and running.   ::faces CTO:: CTO:  Another minute or two and you should be fine.   ::resumes using the bone regenerator to set the bone::

CIV_McLeo:
CO:  energy is at critical, sir.  I've got 3 probes ready for launch, sir.

FCO_Nichl:
CO: barely sir.

MO-Lea:
*CNS*: Concerning?

FCO_Nichl:
CO: We should have been clear a long time ago.

XO_Wall:
::looks at his status panel as it recieves status reports::

CO_Grant:
_CIV_MCLEOD: do the sensors registers us as exiting the shadow?

ACTDNicke:
ACTION: the shadow seems to still be with them

CNS_Jiosa:
*mo* : his stay in sickbay

CIV_McLeo:
CO: no sir.  it is moving with us

FCO_Nichl:
CO: Permission to increase speed sir?

CO_Grant:
_CIV_MCLEOD: is the shadow emitting any kind of energy?

MO-Lea:
*CNS*: Ah!   ::looks around::  CNS: Where is he? Why sin't he in sickbay?

OPS_Lynam:
:;Reroutes power from shields to internal systems.  Shields are up at minimum.::

CO_Grant:
_fco: Increase to warp2 engage

CIV_McLeo:
CO: it's energy signature is increasing as we lose energy

ENGMac:
::monitoring warp core::

FCO_Nichl:
CO: Aye sir ::increases to warp 2::

LtJgCray:
CO:  We did have a momentary affect on the entity but only temporarily.  Perhaps is we altered the quantum resonance of the plasma discharge...

MO-Lea:
*XO*: Commander, you must be in sickbay, being carefully monitered.

CNS_Jiosa:
*MO* made a little escape of course i am sure he will be coming back at your word

MO-Lea:
*CNS*: I'm sure..

CIV_McLeo:
CO: The energy signature exceeds the maximum for the Delphyne.  It must have fed on something else...

OPS_Lynam:
CO: I reccomend we shut down all non essential systems and go with the decoy.

ACTDNicke:
ACTION: energy levels continue to drop

CO_Grant:
_CIV_MCLEOD: I need to know if any frequencies are special like resonances

TO_Hawkes:
::Eyes power levels nervously....::

MO-Lea:
::sets the instrument down:: CTO: You will be sore for several days, and restricted to light duty, but other than that, you are fine.

CNS_Jiosa:
XO: Lets not dill dally lets get you to sickbay ::gestures towards door::

CO_Grant:
_fco: cease the warp , reduce to impulse speeds

FCO_Nichl:
CO: If there was a temporary change sir, could we drop to all stop fast and see if it passes us?

XO_Wall:
::looks at the captian, sighs gets up:: CO: yes I'll be in sickbay

CTO_Psion:
MO:  Aye.  I shall now report to duty.

CTO_Psion:
::Leaves the sickbay::

MO-Lea:
CTO: Inform me if you want anything for pain, and check into sickbay within the next 53 hours for a follow up.

CIV_McLeo:
CO: minimal, sir.  Within normal parameters

CO_Grant:
_XO: Very well , check in with us there

FCO_Nichl:
::drops to impulse::

ACTDNicke:
ACTION: shadow stops

CO_Grant:
_fco: full stop

XO_Wall:
::walks toward TL::

OPS_Lynam:
CO: How about a photon torpedo set to explode at a didtance.  It should like that.

MO-Lea:
::watches her words bounce off the door, as it were. Turns to CSO with a sigh::

CNS_Jiosa:
::going to TL:: XO: I wouldnt like it either but doctors orders

TO_Hawkes:
::leans against TAC as inertial dampers are running a little low::

FCO_Nichl:
CO: Aye sir ::goes to full stop::

CTO_Psion:
::Enters turbolift and heads for the bridge::

OPS_Lynam:
FCO: Maneuvering thrusdters only Ensign.  Edge us out of here.

LtJgCray:
CO:  The entity is still on us.

CNS_Jiosa:
::enters TL::

CIV_McLeo:
CO: if we launch the probes in different directions, it might go after one of them

CO_Grant:
_tac: prepare a photon torpedo to explode at launch plus 2 minutes

XO_Wall:
::enters TL:: CNS: I thought I only had a couple of cracked ribs, I was treated im fine?

MO-Lea:
::resumes treating Poulos's injuries::

FCO_Nichl:
::using manuevering thrusters, attempts to get the ship clear of the shadow::

CO_Grant:
_CIV_MCLEOD: i need a resonance frequency find one

TO_Hawkes:
CO: Aye sir! ::Makes changes:: on your command sir ::figner hovers over "fire" button::

CTO_Psion:
::Enters the bridge::

MO-Lea:
<Nurse>::Approaches MO with a question concerning the upcoming phyiscals::

CNS_Jiosa:
XO: Perhaps something to do that you may have been overexposed to the plasma in the shuttle :: shrugs::

CIV_McLeo:
CO: Aye, sir.

CO_Grant:
_PSION: glad to have you back

CNS_Jiosa:
TL: Sickbay

CO_Grant:
_Hawkes: don't fire until we have something useful

CTO_Psion:
CO:  Acknowledged.

CO_Grant:
_*EO*: send the data you have from the runabouts to bridge

MO-Lea:
Nurse:  Now is _not  _the time.  What is the condition of Mr Watson?

TO_Hawkes:
CO: AYE Sir! I'll wait for your command...::Move finger slightly away so as not to accidently fire::

XO_Wall:
CNS: I guess so ::suddenly feels light headed begins to get week in the knees::

CIV_McLeo:
CO: I have three weak resonances, sir.  Energy is stable, but critical.

CO_Grant:
_OPS: are you getting in signals on the comm channels?

CNS_Jiosa:
::supports XO:: XO: Feeling dizzy light headed sluggish?

MO-Lea:
Self: Of all the times...

CO_Grant:
_CIV_MCLEO: do any of them match resonances taken from the data from the runabouts?

OPS_Lynam:
CO: Negative.

XO_Wall:
CNS: ahh! yes it just suddenly hit me?

CO_Grant:
_ops: acknowledge

CO_Grant:
_d

CTO_Psion:
::Moves over to tactical::  TO:  Remain at main tactical, I shall provide any support you may need.

CNS_Jiosa:
*MO*: Perpare for the XO i believe he may have had a reaction to the plasma

CO_Grant:
_TAC: load three torpedoes , one for each resonant freq but don't launch yet

TO_Hawkes:
::Notices CTO:: CTO:Aye sir! Good to have you back!

MO-Lea:
::finishes with CSO's treatment:: Nurse: I want complete silence in here.

CIV_McLeo:
:: nods:: CO: Aye sir, one of these does match

TO_Hawkes:
CO: Aye sir! Three torps.

ENGMac:
*CO*: we need to stop somewhere and get some dilithium crystals, they were badly used by whatever that shadow was

CO_Grant:
_TAC: modifiy them to emit pulses at resonant freq just prior to detonation

TO_Hawkes:
::configures 3 torpedoes::

CO_Grant:
_*EO*: acknowledged

LtJgCray:
::Scans for a central nervous system::

MO-Lea:
*CNS*: Thanks for letting me know.

CNS_Jiosa:
::TL Door open Liz steps out supporting the XO heads to sickbay slowly::

TO_Hawkes:
CO: Aye sir! ::co-ordinates freq.s with Mcleod::

XO_Wall:
::suddenly becomes limp and goes out::

MO-Lea:
::prepares a biobed, sighs as the lights flicker again::

CIV_McLeo:
::coordinates with Hawkes::

CO_Grant:
_CIV_mcleo: any matches yet ?

ENGMac:
*CO*: also after this Red Alert, I'll get back to checking the runabouts

CO_Grant:
_*EO*: acknowleged

CIV_McLeo:
CO: Aye sir.  There was a match, as I said.

CNS_Jiosa:
*MO* get me a gurney for the XO stat he is out for the count

LtJgCray:
::Scans for particle emissions from the cloud::

MO-Lea:
::rushes out the door and down the hall::

CNS_Jiosa:
::lowers XO to the floor::

CO_Grant:
_CIV: You said three matches, are they duplicated in data taken from the runabouts?

MO-Lea:
<Nurse>::Brings the stretcher::

CIV_McLeo:
CO: yes, sir.  One of the matches is duplicated from the data

LtJgCray:
::Scans for subspace fluctuations from the creature::

TO_Hawkes:
CO: 3 eggs ready for delivery sir!

CO_Grant:
_CTO: Are the torpedoes modified yet? Pay particular attention to the freq that matched data from runabouts

MO-Lea:
::Kneels to match CNS and XO's height.  Begins scanning as teh nurse comes up behind and assists CNS in loading Xo onto stretcher::

CNS_Jiosa:
MO: First time i had a man swoon on me :: smiles::

CO_Grant:
_TAC: fire one with the match now

CTO_Psion:
CO:  Aye sir.  Torpedoes have been modified.

OPS_Lynam:
CNS: He seems to have a weakness for Counselors. :;Smiles::

CO_Grant:
_tac: fire!

CIV_McLeo:
CO:  there are small subspace fluctuations, sir.

MO-Lea:
::looks up, unable to repress a small smile:: CNS: Not from what I heard..  ::begins to roll stretcher down the hall::

FCO_Nichl:
CO: Manuevering thrusters are getting us nowhere sir.  This thing is moving with us.

TO_Hawkes:
::Fires one torp::

CNS_Jiosa:
MO: Really you give me too much credit

ACTDNicke:
ACTION: the shadow seems to turn its attention to the torpedoe..surround it quickly::

CO_Grant:
_FCO:set course 1/2 impulse to those fluctuotions

CNS_Jiosa:
::follows the strecher::

LtJgCray:
::Studies the subspace fluctuations::

OPS_Lynam:
::Begins trying to rebuild the power reserves::

CO_Grant:
_FCO: set course for the nearest open space, 1/2 impulse now

FCO_Nichl:
CO: Aye sir. ::sets 1/2 impulse::

MO-Lea:
::enters sickbay:: CNS: I do not think so.. _r_nNurse: Help me move him to the biobed.

XO_Wall:
::lies on strecher out like a light::

CO_Grant:
_:: awaits the torpedo to explode::

ACTDNicke:
ACTION: the delphyne begins moving toward the open space

FCO_Nichl:
CO: Open space in 10 seconds sir.

CIV_McLeo:
::muttering:: that thing is an energy leech...

ACTDNicke:
ACTION: the torpedo explodes

CNS_Jiosa:
::helps get the XO on the biobed::]

OPS_Lynam:
CO: Why don't we feed it a spead of Quantum torpedoes.  See if it likes a terminal case of indigestion.

TO_Hawkes:
CO: Sir, should we launch a warning beacon when we're out of its reach?

CIV_McLeo:
CO: sir, if that things starts coming towards us, the probes might draw it away

CO_Grant:
_FCO: as soon as we have our bearings, head back to where we found the Brege

FCO_Nichl:
CO: Aye sir.

LtJgCray:
::Scans for energy readings emanating from the subspace fluctuations surrounding the entity::

CO_Grant:
_ALL: excellent suggestions

ACTDNicke:
ACTION: the Delphyne slips by the shadow

CO_Grant:
_OPS: PRepare a buoy to be launched when we exit the badlands

MO-Lea:
::Activates biobed display. Staring at the readings:: CNS: He seems to be suffering from the same condition the rest of the 'sea sick' crew is.

CNS_Jiosa:
MO: Besides as i remember more guys were swooning on you

OPS_Lynam:
CO: Aye sir.  :;Prepares standard warning buoy::

FCO_Nichl:
CO: Course for the Brege's last location laid in.

ENGMac:
::very worn out, but feels a job well done by Engineering::

CO_Grant:
_civ_mcleod: Is the shadow pursueing us?

CNS_Jiosa:
MO: Did those injections do anything?

MO-Lea:
::looks at CNS:: CNS:: I think you ought to take a seat on on of those biobeds.

CTO_Psion:
::Keeps the entity on tactical scanners::

ACTDNicke:
ACTION: the delpyne slips past the shadow and moves slowly out of the badlands

CNS_Jiosa:
MO: To help the crews condition

CO_Grant:
_::Notes that the ship passes the old position of the Brege::

CIV_McLeo:
::relieved:: CO: no, sir.  We're clear

CO_Grant:
_Civ: Excellent work Ens

CIV_McLeo:
CO: Thank you, sir

CO_Grant:
_TAC: good shooting

LtJgCray:
CO:  I'm not exactly sure.  But I think I picked up a power signature resembling a Cardassian engine coming from deep within the creature.  If there were any Cardassians lost...there is no hope for them now.

TO_Hawkes:
::Nods at CO...big smile::

MO-Lea:
CNS:   I can not tell at this moment if they helped, of harmed their conidtion. But we are all better than we would have been without them...with, perhaps the exception of Miss Es'Shere.

ENGMac:
::goes around and congratulates the Enginnering staff

CO_Grant:
_Cray: note that in your reports
