Host Tim says:
The Dublin having detected a temporal disturbance five light years beyond Lyat IV has moved to 125, 000 km from that anomaly.  The Kantrell have acknowledged the Dublin's message of a delayed visit.

Host Tim says:
<<<Resume Mission: "Another rabbit hole?">>>

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
::at his chair on the bridge, gazing at the view screen, squinting his eyes into the distant void:: CTO: Can we get a better look at the disturbance?

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
::stands, leans against the back of the Captain's chair, casually looking at the view screen, then stands up straight and takes a couple steps next to Kizlev's arm::  CO: Captain?  About your recent order for the inoculations...

CEO_Lt_Cmdr_Delgado says:
::at his station on the bridge reviewing the Norway Class manual, finding nothing about temporal displacement::

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CO: I’ll adjust the resolution, but it has faded significantly. Only traces remain now.

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CNS: Yes, Imzad-- ::stops himself short from using the Betazoid name of romance, remembering where he is:: --um, yes. What of it?

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::adjusts the resolution and refines the scan::

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
Helm: Take us to within maximum safe distance of 85,000 kilometers. Standby full reverse thrusters in case we need them.

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
::lets a bit of a smile creep onto her lips but keeps her tone professional:: CO:  Sir...the radiation medicine should not be used unless necessary.  It only lasts twenty four hours and does have side effects.  If we would have to take it again its effectiveness would be cut in half and it could make us ill in itself.

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
CO:  I do have the inoculations ready and waiting, though.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::runs a full scan of the anomalies trace elements::

CIV_LtJG_Chitwa says:
::sitting on the Bridge, keeping a furry ear on communications

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CO: Skipper, recommend we send a probe into the anomaly to run full set of scans up close and personal like.

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CNS: Ahh...that's what I get for missing medical briefings. I'll send my apologies to the ACMO later. ::looks up at her eyes:: Is your seat too uncomfortable?

CIV_LtJG_Chitwa says:
CO: Kizlev, therrres no communications frrrom the Corrrmanii.

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
CO:  Not at all.  It's just too far away.  And I do prefer to stand if you do not mind?  ::smiles just a bit more for her Andorian:: Now, shall I go speak to Ambassador Nuyev or ask him to join us here?

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
::looks askance at the Caitian Lieutenant as she is so informal with their captain on the bridge but says nothing::

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CIV: None at all. No residual energy waves indicating any communication at all? CNS: Hmm...the Ambassador might be asleep now...wouldn't want to disturb him, unless you are willing to risk it.

CIV_LtJG_Chitwa says:
::shakes her head:: CO: They'rrre not talkerrrs, I guess.

CEO_Lt_Cmdr_Delgado says:
CO: I agree with the CTO, a probe should give us more data and offer us some time to prepare countermeasures.

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CTO: Prepare a class I probe. Launch when ready.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::prepares a class 1 probe and launches into the anomaly::

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CO: Probe away skipper.

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
CO: I was only referring to your orders to speak with him.

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CIV: No, but they are effective killers. Connect to the probe's datas tream uplink, and monitor its progress.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::looks over at the Civ and smiles::

CIV_LtJG_Chitwa says:
CO: I'm on it.

CEO_Lt_Cmdr_Delgado says:
:keeps on browsing the ship's LCARS trying to find something relative to this kind of time travel::

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CNS: Yeah, that was before I started thinking about what might happen to the Federation if we fail, and Earth is indeed lost...

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CO: Skipper the data stream indicates a very high power source was used to create the anomaly. The radiation appears to fade in stages.

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CTO: Radiation...? What sort of radiation? Is it life-threatening?

CIV_LtJG_Chitwa says:
::ears perk at 'radiation' and she looks over at the CTO::

CEO_Lt_Cmdr_Delgado says:
::hears the CTO and speaks out loud:: CTO: And what kind of power source did they use? Can we determine it?

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CEO: Unknown Chief.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CO: Correction the anomaly appears to fade in stages.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CO: The radiation is non lethal at this point in time.

Host Tim says:
ACTION: THE PROBE'S PROXIMITY TO ANOMALY SEEMS TO HAVE REACTIVATED IT.

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
::looks over to Delgado, seeing a copy of an engineer's bible on his lap:: CEO: So, does the manual say anything about the stress this hull can take during time warp?

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CO: Skipper the anomaly has reactivated.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
Self: Interesting

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
CO:  Sir, I do believe it would be a good idea to ask the Ambassador if he knows of any trade agreements between the Kantrell and the Cormanii...or any other entanglements between the two species.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::watches the probe disappear into the anomaly::

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
::watches the reaction to the probe on the view screen:: CTO: So it seems... CIV: Chitwa...do you foresee any danger by getting closer?

CEO_Lt_Cmdr_Delgado says:
CTO: Can you try to see if you can scan the quark residuals that remain after a M/AM reaction?
CO: None sir, I guess we will have to stick our finger in it to see if the water is really cold.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::watches the data stream die::

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CEO/CTO: Probe status?

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CO: Data stream has been terminated at the point of origin

CIV_LtJG_Chitwa says:
CO: I don't think we want to get sucked in.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CEO: I’ll run the scan for you now Chief.

CEO_Lt_Cmdr_Delgado says:
CO/CTO: If the probe is in another time dimension, the data will not flow in into our continuum.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::runs the scan for the Chief::

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
::hears the CTO's report:: CEO: Cold water, eh? What does that disturbance remind you of? Try to think back to a certain enemy we fought at Wolf 359... ::hopes the hint is more than enough::

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CO: Skipper it would appear that before we lost the probe it underwent a temporal shift.

CIV_LtJG_Chitwa says:
::thinks of the Borg and shudders a bit::

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::scans for any signs of the Borg::

CEO_Lt_Cmdr_Delgado says:
CO: I think we can only hope is not the borg and "just" the Cormanii sir. ::grins:: However there is only one way to tell and it is very dangerous. I'd leave a note to Starfleet if we decide to enter the anomaly.

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CNS: Best thing to do right now is focus on what's happening here. I think ambassador's been through quite a bit lately.

CSO_Ltjg_Daniels says:
::Keeping the anomaly on scans.::  CO:  Distance to anomaly, 85,000 km according to scans, Sir.

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
CO:  Yes, Sir.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CO: Scans of the area show no signs of the Borg commander

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CSO: Call me insane, but I think we're about to reduce that number. CNS: Rhianna, I'm not insane, am I? ::grins at her::

CSO_Ltjg_Daniels says:
::Looks at the Captain.::  Self:  He wants to get closer?

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CEO: Chief be ready to shift extra power to the shields and SI field should we need it.

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CTO: No, the Borg are has-beens, lieutenant. I doubt they'd ever be in bed with barbarians like the Cormanii.

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
CO:  Clinical opinion?  ::narrows her eyes and chuckles:: I should tell you in private.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CO: Just covering our bases skipper, better safe than sorry.

CSO_Ltjg_Daniels says:
::Chuckles at the Counselor's response.::

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CSO: Lieutenant there was a temporal shift in the probe just before we lost the data stream you may like to look into it.

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
CO: My advice?  Keep our distance and observe.  I enjoy being in one piece together.

CEO_Lt_Cmdr_Delgado says:
CO: Sir, I am thinking maybe we can use a neutrino field to keep a probe in our time continuum even as it gets closer to the anomaly. Use it as a rope so that we can pull the probe if necessary.

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CNS: So I'm certifiable? Excellent. So that's how I became a starship commander. 'Fascinating', as the Vulcans say. CTO: Keep those bases loaded, then. And yes, I have played baseball in the past, if you are wondering. Helm: Standby to take us in on my mark...

CSO_Ltjg_Daniels says:
CTO:  I'll review the data, Sir.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::smiles at the Skipper ::

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CEO: You want to.... ::his antennae twitch as he tries to think of the proper metaphor:: ...cast a line into the pond, so to speak?

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
ALL: All hands  prepare to enter the anomaly.

Host Tim says:
<Helm> Self: ::mutters:: "Into the valley of death rode the six hundred...". CO: Aye sir... heading is set to the anomaly.

CEO_Lt_Cmdr_Delgado says:
CO: Exactly and fish for data. Better way to check for shark than diving directly sir. It may fail, but the stakes are so high anyway.

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
CO:  Very certifiable...Sir.  ::puts her hands behind her back and rocks onto her tiptoes as she listens to Kizlev and the others::

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
Self: Cannon to the left of them, cannon to the right.....

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CEO: Your prudence is appreciated. I'm not too far gone to disagree with that idea. Let's try it first and gather more data. CTO: Did you get that?

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CO: Aye sir.

CSO_Ltjg_Daniels says:
CTO:  Detecting levels of radiation from the data from the temporal shift in the probe, but it was fading.  Still checking for anything else .. ::Continues to review the data.::

CIV_LtJG_Chitwa says:
::checks subspace traffic::

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::readies another probe and readies::

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
CEO:  I like your metaphor.  It is safer, too.

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CSO/CIV: Ladies, you're on. Once Mr. Delgado gets the probe through, check for signs of 'fish' beyond the threshold.

CEO_Lt_Cmdr_Delgado says:
::starts making modifications to the tractor beam:: CO: I can adapt the frequencies of the tractor beam so that a new probe won't be so easy to snatch. We just need to pull it back once the temporal distorsion becomes too big.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CEO: Ready when you are Chief.

CIV_LtJG_Chitwa says:
::smoothes her skirt and checks the console:: CO: Got it.

CSO_Ltjg_Daniels says:
CO:  And I can amplify sensors to attempt to detect for the temporal distortion before it becomes an issue.

CEO_Lt_Cmdr_Delgado says:
::finishes punching the last data in the console:: CTO: Go for it. I am ready.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::fires the probe:: CO: Probe is away skipper

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
::nods to Gael, and looks at Rhianna:: CNS: It is times like these I wish we completed 'Redwolf' back at the Academy.

CEO_Lt_Cmdr_Delgado says:
::activates tractor beam so that it envelopes the probe and moves with it.:: Self: Darn this is hard, I should learn to fly fish a little better.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::monitors the incoming data stream from the probe::

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
::quickly turns her head at mention of 'Redwolf', surprised he mentioned it and hoping his antipathy towards her adopted father is waning::  CO: That would have been good to finish what you start.

CSO_Ltjg_Daniels says:
::Reviews the scanned data for any signs of the temporal distortion increasing.::

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CSO: If I translated that right, that sounds excellent. How's the probe's trajectory? I don't want to lose another one if we can help it.

Host Tim says:
ACTION: THE ANOMALY GROWS IN SIZE AS THE PROBE APPROACHES.  READINGS ON ANOMALY ARE STRONGER; RADIATION IS VIRTUALLY GONE.

CSO_Ltjg_Daniels says:
CO:  The anomaly is growing as the probe is approaching.  Radiation is just about gone though.

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CNS: The ultimate warp recon craft...at least on paper. This would have been a perfect test scenario, right here.

CSO_Ltjg_Daniels says:
CO:  And the probe is right on course.

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CSO/CEO: Hold the line nice n' steady...

CEO_Lt_Cmdr_Delgado says:
::reinforces the neutrino field on the probe:: ALL: Increasing shielding, hopefully they won't steal the bait this time.

CSO_Ltjg_Daniels says:
::Nods to the CO, and continues to watch the course of the probe.::  CO:  Yes, Sir.

Host Tim says:
ACTION: THE PROBE ENTERS THE TEMPORAL DISPLACEMENT... NEUTRINO FIELD HOLDS.

CIV_LtJG_Chitwa says:
::listens to the comm traffic and hums a tune under her breath::

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
::leans forward at the edge of his chair, anxious to see what happens this time::

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::watches the readouts from the probe::

CSO_Ltjg_Daniels says:
Out loud:  The probe has entered the temporal displacement.  
CEO:  Your neutrino fields are holding.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::grits teeth watching::

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CSO: I hope you're recording...I'd like to know if it's safe to take a dive. The galaxy has been too hot lately...

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
::covers her sensitive pointed ears at the noise coming over the audio::

CIV_LtJG_Chitwa says:
::looks over at the CTO, mentally telling him to relax::

CEO_Lt_Cmdr_Delgado says:
::thinks if it is time to replicate swimming trunks the size of the Dublin::

CSO_Ltjg_Daniels says:
CO:  What?  I'm supposed to be recording this?  ::Pauses.::  Just kidding, Captain.  Of course I am.  ::Grins.::

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::looks over at Chitwa concerned for her::

CIV_LtJG_Chitwa says:
::smiles at the CTO::

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
::his antennae start to react to the pitch of the noise, and he puts his hands over his ears:: CIV: Turn that noise off, or filter it if you can.

CIV_LtJG_Chitwa says:
CO: Oh...sorrry. ::adjusts output::

CSO_Ltjg_Daniels says:
CO:  The probe is not through the hole.  It seems to be held just inside the event horizon.

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CSO: Good enough. Hold it there as long as possible.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::reassured by Chitwa’s smile refocuses on the job at hand::

CSO_Ltjg_Daniels says:
CO:  Yes, Sir.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CSO: Is it possible to get a visual of the other side?

CEO_Lt_Cmdr_Delgado says:
CO: Our shields should hold very easy against simple fission energy Sir.

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CNS: If there's a sunny beach on the other side of this...portal, I promise to do my best to get us there. Our dog needs a walk, after all.

CSO_Ltjg_Daniels says:
CTO:  I can try to enhance the visual feedback.  Attempting ..

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CSO: Thank you Lieutenant.

CEO_Lt_Cmdr_Delgado says:
CO: Sir I think it is time to decide if pulling out or letting it being snatched. The traction is increasing. ::makes some adjustments to the power level::

Host Tim says:
ACTION: THE PULL ON THE DUBLIN VIA THE TRACTOR BEAM FOCUSED ON THE PROBE PULLS THE DUBLIN TOWARD THE ANAMOLY WITH INCREASING SPEED.

CIV_LtJG_Chitwa says:
Self: Uh oh.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CONN: Reverse engines now

Host Tim says:
ACTION: THE ANOMALY OPENING GROWS AND THE DUBLIN IS PULLED THROUGH

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
::starts to wonder about Kizlev's humour considering what happened to earth:: CO: I would rather stay on this side of time...

CSO_Ltjg_Daniels says:
CTO:  I tried, Lieutenant.  I'm not getting a visual from the other side.  Perhaps if we were closer?   
Out Loud:  Whoops!  Did I say that out loud?

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CEO: Fission...if that's technology driven, then... ::looks up, noticing they're moving ahead:: CSO: Cut the line! ::sees their forward velocity is too great to react in time:: CTO: Shields!

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
CSO:  You are kidding?

CEO_Lt_Cmdr_Delgado says:
::thinks about Jonah and the whale while the ship is pulled in::

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::raises shields::

CSO_Ltjg_Daniels says:
CO:  I can cut the line, Sir, but it will do no good.  We've been pulled through.

CEO_Lt_Cmdr_Delgado says:
::reinforces the ISF with all the power remaining::

CSO_Ltjg_Daniels says:
::Severs the line.::

CIV_LtJG_Chitwa says:
::holds onto the console to keep from getting tossed around::

Host Tim says:
ACTION: THE DUBLIN "POPS" THROUGH THE ANOMALY STILL ATTACHED TO THE PROBE VIA THE TRACTOR BEAM.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
ALL: Report.

CEO_Lt_Cmdr_Delgado says:
::thinks he never felt so tripped out since his first year at the Academy when Rico dropped something in his cocktail::

CSO_Ltjg_Daniels says:
ALL:  Well, we're here, wherever here is.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CSO: More like when.

CSO_Ltjg_Daniels says:
::Begins to search for data.::  CTO:  More like .. 10 years in the future, I would say.  And five light years from Lyat IV if I'm reading this correctly.

CSO_Ltjg_Daniels says:
CTO:  And that temporal disturbance is now gone.  We are on the other side.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
:;runs a full set of scans of the area:: CSO: Thank you Lieutenant.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CSO: Any signs of it?

CEO_Lt_Cmdr_Delgado says:
CO/CTO: Ship's fine, a little stressed, but nothing I good massage wouldn't cure. We though we were the fisherman, instead we were the fish.

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CSO: Signs of Starfleet or civilian Federation facilities?

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
::looks intently at the view screen for what whatever scene they have just come into and listens to the reports, feeling terribly uneasy::

CIV_LtJG_Chitwa says:
::wonders how she'd massage the ship::

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CEO: If we ever get out of this and get home i`ll get you that massage cheif

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
::turns to Rhianna:: CNS: Maybe if we're lucky, the Klingons might've joined the Federation by now.

CSO_Ltjg_Daniels says:
::Nods with a sigh.::  CO/CTO:  Unfortunately .. nothing nearby.

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
CSO: Well done Lieutenant..

CTO_Lt_Wolf says:
::smiles at the Captains remark::

CEO_Lt_Cmdr_Delgado says:
::grins:: CTO: We'll get back, if the Cormanii can travel through time, so can we.

CIV_LtJG_Chitwa says:
CO: I'm picking up Kantrell communications only

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CIV: Hail them. We need to get the lay of the land as quick as possible.

CIV_LtJG_Chitwa says:
::nods::

Host CO_Cmdr_Kizlev says:
CNS: It's show time for the Ambassador, I think.

CNS_Lt_Jakiel says:
CO:  It is...about time...Sir.
