CNS_T`Salea says:
::Enters their quarters, the scent of unuse permeating the area::

CIV_Essex says:
::leans on the door:: CMO: Yeah ... mine too

Host CO_Senn says:
XO: No, the station is more than capable to take over from the Hudson's CMO, but a call for readiness won't harm. We'll offer aid to the station as well.

CSO_Rya says:
::Watches KTracht, but decides to mind her own business and goes back to work.::

CNS_T`Salea says:
::Seeing that Shsssaa has everything in hand, she wishes her peace, then heads for the bridge::

Host CO_Senn says:
OPS: See if you can get me Captain Oliver Hudson over the comm.

CMO_LtCmdr_Foley says:
::reads and sends out a medical alert message, putting ships medical staff on a heightened state of alert, then looks to Nat:: CIV: One moment dear... sorry.

CTO_Nimitz says:
OPS: Sir, we have our torpedoes bays full don't we? Otherwise, it would be nice to have the full load of them before with go to other quadrant

CIV_Essex says:
::feels David's mind working:: CMO: Andorian river fever... that’s what it looks like

OPS_Lt_Taylor says:
::Hails the Hudson::

SEC_KTracht says:
::sits very still on his station, hoping none of the bridge crew will notice his state::

Host Capt_Hudson says:
@::taps his comm badge:: *CO Senn*: Ye-- ::coughs::, yes Captain? ::coughs::

OPS_Lt_Taylor says:
CTO: We should have a full compliment.

CSO_Rya says:
::Sees Ens. Ling watching KTracht with open curiosity and shakes her head slightly at the woman, indicating she should return to her work.::

Host CO_Senn says:
::what a nasty cough he has:: COM: Hudson: I was worrying over your status, Oliver. By the way, nice seeing you again.

CIV_Essex says:
*XO*: I think I know the illness... I can get a vaccine together if you would like...

CMO_LtCmdr_Foley says:
::grins and looks back to the console nodding:: CIV: Yes, what I was thinking as well. ::turns the monitor so that she can see with her own eyes the data::

CTO_Nimitz says:
OPS: Great, it wouldn't be a nice situation to run out of torpedoes in the middle of the battle, would it?

CNS_T`Salea says:
::Steps of the TL onto the bridge and heads over to the XO::

SEC_KTracht says:
::again, takes his hand to his head, and closes his eyes::

XO_Zaldivar says:
*CIV*: Very good.  Contact the station medical staff.

CNS_T`Salea says:
XO:  Commander, reporting for duty.

CIV_Essex says:
:glances up at David:: CMO: yes... I would like to go home too...

Host CO_Senn says:
::assessing Hudson's state over the viewscreen, wondering if his XO is sporting the same unhealthy cough::

TO_M`Tor says:
:: runs a diagnostic on the TAC scanners ::

XO_Zaldivar says:
CNS: Welcome back Cns.

CNS_T`Salea says:
::Nods::  XO:  Any orders sir?

TO_M`Tor says:
:: looks briefly around the bridge trying to match the crew's face to the BIO's he read ::

Host Capt_Hudson says:
@*Senn* I've been ::cough:: better... my XO isn't feeling much better...

CIV_Essex says:
::goes about calling in the 2 Andorian crewmembers of the Europa to begin the vaccine creation::

CTO_Nimitz says:
::just by chance notices K’Tracht behavior, knowing Klingons don’t show weakness it public this has to be serious::

XO_Zaldivar says:
CNS: We are monitoring the medical situation on the Hudson.  Any input is welcome.

CMO_LtCmdr_Foley says:
::works the computer and contacts the medical staff of the station with the particulars of the disease, then looks up:: CIV: Home? ::still not fully getting it::

Host CO_Senn says:
::nods at T'Salea as she talks to Triton, because Oliver Hudson is a slow typist, and add the cough to that...::

CNS_T`Salea says:
XO: What is wrong with them?

CTO_Nimitz says:
::walks up to him and says in a whisper:: SEC: Are you feeling ok? You don't seem to

OPS_Lt_Taylor says:
XO: Aye, orders out.

XO_Zaldivar says:
CNS: I don't know, Lt. Essex has more data.

CIV_Essex says:
::grins and stands:: CMO: later... ::exits and meets the crew... taking blood samples and talking to them about the situation::

CSO_Rya says:
::Begins researching data on the gamma quadrant.::

CNS_T`Salea says:
::acknowledges the captain with a nod::

Host CO_Senn says:
COM: Hudson: I see. I will let you continue with your duties and have that cough looked at... while I contact Command and let them know of the situation. If you need anything, we are at your service.

Host Capt_Hudson says:
ACTION: 60% of the USS Hudson's crew are infected with a severe strain of Norwellian Flu...

XO_Zaldivar says:
OPS: Thank you Mr. Taylor.

SEC_KTracht says:
::turns to the CTO, hiding his drowsiness the best he can:: CTO : I'm fine sir... Just a little sleepy...

CNS_T`Salea says:
XO:  I will contact her then.

CNS_T`Salea says:
::Looks over at K'Tracht::

FCO_Felhaber says:
::calls up his flight plan for their journey through the wormhole.  Is excited to be going through it for the first time::

CSO_Rya says:
Ens Ling: Please begin searching grids 124.2 through 164.3. ::Said very softly::

CTO_Nimitz says:
SEC: Just sleepy?. Have you sleep well last night?

SEC_KTracht says:
::manages a wide Klingon smile::

SEC_KTracht says:
CTO : Uhmm...  Yes, Yes sir...

CNS_T`Salea says:
::Shakes her head slowly::  SEC:  I would recommend less blood wine the night before departure.

SEC_KTracht says:
::looks at the CNS:: CNS: How did you... ::turns to the CTO, and smiles again::

CNS_T`Salea says:
::REB::   SEC:  I believe medical can give you something for that... hangover.

CSO_Rya says:
::Glances at KTracht and tries, unsuccessfully, not to grin at him.::

CMO_LtCmdr_Foley says:
::reads over the data again, finding a few differences and quirks:: ~~~CIV: Nat, it looks like this is Norwellian flu, rather than Andorian River fever... better adjust accordingly~~~ ::reads::

TO_M`Tor says:
:: almost chuckles at the sound of the word bloodwine, then returns his attention to the TAC station ::

SEC_KTracht says:
::tries to maintain his normal posture in front of the CTO, but the CSO and CNS are making it very hard on him to::

Host CO_Senn says:
::takes back her seat and looks sideways at Triton:: XO: I wonder if this means more time under dock.

CIV_Essex says:
~~~CMO: Right... ~~~ ::dismisses the crew members... thanking them for their time... and ponders what to do::

CNS_T`Salea says:
::Heads over to one of the science stations::

CMO_LtCmdr_Foley says:
::looks up again:: ~~~CIV: Okay, the addition of a 5% anaveline solution to the existing vaccine should render it effective against the disease~~~

FCO_Felhaber says:
::swivels around::  XO:  Sir, I've reviewed some of the new shuttles, however, I am waiting on more free time to study them thoroughly.

XO_Zaldivar says:
CO:  I'd think a few days.

CNS_T`Salea says:
*CIV*:  Doctor, anything I can assist you with in the current situation?

Host CO_Senn says:
XO: Me as well. Not that anyone will mind much I suppose...

CIV_Essex says:
~~~CMO: Understood~~~ ::creates the vaccine and sends one test to the station's medical unit for testing::

XO_Zaldivar says:
FCO:  Very good.

SEC_KTracht says:
CTO : Anything else... Sir?

Host CO_Senn says:
OPS: Try to get ahold of somebody on the Station and tell us what stage the flu is in the Hudson patients and what is the recovery time. Send a communiqué to SFC, informing them of the situation.

SEC_KTracht says:
::turns to the CNS and CSO with a "If you open your mouth... " look::

CIV_Essex says:
::modifies the solution according to the blood work coming back from the Hudson crew::

XO_Zaldivar says:
OPS/FCO:  Do not let anyone use the new shuttles until FCO Felhaber has reviewed and cleared each one.

FCO_Felhaber says:
::swivels back to face the helm and continues to review the flight plan through the wormhole::

CSO_Rya says:
::Bites her lower lip to keep from laughing and turns back to her work.::

CTO_Nimitz says:
::looks at the CNS and then at K’Tracht:: SEC: Oh I see. Lt, why don't you go to sickbay to check if they need some help from Tactical? ::trying to give K’Tracht an honorable excuse to go to sickbay::

FCO_Felhaber says:
XO: Understood, sir.

OPS_Lt_Taylor says:
CO: Aye... ::Sends a message to the station and SFC::

SEC_KTracht says:
::nods:: CTO : Yes sir... Thank you...Sir...

CNS_T`Salea says:
::Catches K’Tracht’s look and both eyebrows rise, followed by a twinkle in her eyes::

Host CO_Senn says:
::mutters:: Self: All this will just give me time to lose the latinum I won because I don't think the Ferengi is ever going to pay me...

CMO_LtCmdr_Foley says:
*XO* Foley to Zaldivar. Natalia and I have been able to draw up a regimen for the disease, the data is being forwarded to the station now

SEC_KTracht says:
::makes a quick exit from the bridge::

OPS_Lt_Taylor says:
XO: Aye, sir. Sir, I suggest that we post a security detail at the entrance to the bay.

XO_Zaldivar says:
*CMO*:  What is the recovery time for this flu?

CSO_Rya says:
::Grins at the counselor as she sees K'Tracht's quick exit.::

CMO_LtCmdr_Foley says:
*XO* With proper treatment... Three to five days

SEC_KTracht says:
::as the TL doors close:: TL : Sickbay... ::leans on to one of the sides of the TL, and closes his eyes again::

CNS_T`Salea says:
::Patiently waits for Essex to respond::

XO_Zaldivar says:
CO: There you have it.

Host CO_Senn says:
::smiles at Triton::

CTO_Nimitz says:
::after K’Tracht has left, looks at CNS and CSO and can't help laughing, but only a short laugh:: CNS &CSO: Poor K’Tracht

XO_Zaldivar says:
*CMO*: Thank you Cmdr.  Good work, and thank Essex as well.

CSO_Rya says:
::Smiles at the CTO::

SEC_KTracht says:
::as the TL doors, opens, K'Tracht is a little slow to open his eyes and exit...::

CO: Message packet sent to SFC, sir.

CMO_LtCmdr_Foley says:
::grins:: *XO* You can be sure that I will

TO_M`Tor says:
:: raises his head from the console at the sound of security detail and consults the list of security guards available ::

Host CO_Senn says:
OPS: Thank you Lieutenant.

FCO_Felhaber says:
XO: Sir, I request permission to leave the bridge, so I may begin evaluating the new shuttlecraft.  That is, unless we're leaving.

Host MO_Socratesi says:
@COM: Europa: Dr. Bashir has asked me to inform you that we have the infection under control.

XO_Zaldivar says:
FCO: I don’t think we'll be going anywhere for a while.  Permission granted.

CIV_Essex says:
*CNS*: Yes... I wouldn't mind the aid in sickbay

SEC_KTracht says:
::enters sickbay, somewhat unsteadily, his head-ache getting stronger::

FCO_Felhaber says:
::nods:: XO: Thank you, sir.

CNS_T`Salea says:

FCO_Felhaber says:
::heads to the TL and waits for it to arrive::

CTO_Nimitz says:
TO: Have you had time to become familiar with the Tac/Sec officers? At least the names?

XO_Zaldivar says:
OPS: See to it.

CMO_LtCmdr_Foley says:
~~~CIV: How is the treatment coming?~~~ ::sees K'Tracht enter the sickbay::

CSO_Rya says:
::Is compiling a list of all the known planets in the gamma quadrant::

CNS_T`Salea says:
XO:  Commander, I will be down in sickbay should you need me.

XO_Zaldivar says:
CNS: Very well.

CMO_LtCmdr_Foley says:
::walks out:: SEC: Is something wrong Lieutenant?

OPS_Lt_Taylor says:
XO: Aye, sir. CTO: Can you spare 2 SEC to watch over the new shuttles?

TO_M`Tor says:
CTO: I am reviewing the files at this moment Sir. Did you wish to assign anyone in particular to the detail Sir ?

CNS_T`Salea says:
::With a nod to the CSO, turns to leave::

CIV_Essex says:

CNS_T`Salea says:
::Steps off the TL and heads for sickbay::

Nurse_Krin says:
::blinks at the reading and stares at the Klingon::

CMO_LtCmdr_Foley says:

CTO_Nimitz says:
OPS: Ensign’s M'Tor and Drist will do it

OPS_Lt_Taylor says:
::Puts the Admiral's Face on the View Screen::

CMO_LtCmdr_Foley says:

FCO_Felhaber says:
::takes a tricorder and approaches the port access hatch on the Venture Class scout ship::

TO_M`Tor says:
:: slaves his console to TAC #1 and heads towards the TL ::

CNS_T`Salea says:
::Looks from one to the other waiting to see how she can help::

Host VAdm_Edwards says:
COM: Europa: Captain... I have... I've been in contact with Starfleet Command. They understand the Hudson's position, but they require that you begin this mission on time.

CIV_Essex says:
CNS: it's highly appreciated... but as far as the vaccine... we have one that’s reported to be effective... we just have to get out crew inoculated

Host CO_Senn says:
COM: Edwards: Does that mean the Hudson will rendezvous with us later in the Gamma Quadrant, sir?

CNS_T`Salea says:
::Nods::

CSO_Rya says:
::Reads over the information on the new pod while the computer works on her search.::

Host CO_Senn says:
::doesn't like much the idea of setting on their own... even with the war over there's no knowing what kind of resistance they will find on the other side of the wormhole::

FCO_Felhaber says:
::interfaces the tricorder with the scout ship's diagnostic routines::

Nurse_Krin says:
SEC: drink... it will make the detox work faster

XO_Zaldivar says:
CO: They want to send us in alone?

Nurse_Krin says:
SEC: and I do mean all 3 liters of it

XO_Zaldivar says:
CO: Is he aware that we don't have the battle pod anymore?

CMO_LtCmdr_Foley says:
CNS: Perhaps you should attend to Mr. K'Tracht here... you do have experience with him after all

Host VAdm_Edwards says:
#COM: Europa: Not exactly Captain... you are continue on through the wormhole, with the Hudson. One of the Hudson's shuttles will remain behind to ferry the Captain and XO through the wormhole.

FCO_Felhaber says:
::looks up and sees M'Tor arrive::  Hello, Mr. M'Tor.  ::smiles::

CNS_T`Salea says:
::Looks at the CMO with an expression he can not decipher and with a nod, walks over to K'Tracht::

#COM: Europa: I leave that up to you. Captain Hudson has been informed of Starfleet's choice, and he agrees, albeit not without some argument.

Host CO_Senn says:
::her eyes twinkle at Triton, muttering the words "a newly-commissioned Intrepid class"::

SEC_KTracht says:
CNS : Counselor. Would you tell this...Woman... That Klingons don't drink water... Least of all 3 liters of  it?

Host CO_Senn says:
COM: Edwards: I would have acted no different. We'll request the Starbase’s aid to make sure the Hudson is not undermanned, with your approval.

FCO_Felhaber says:
::hears the tricorder beep as the diagnostic on the Venture class scout ship is complete::

FCO_Felhaber says:
*Ops* I have completed the diagnostic on the Venture class scout ship, and it looks good to go, sir.

::growls softly::

FCO_Felhaber says:
::stands up and looks at M'Tor::  Don't mind me, sir, I'm just running diagnostics on the shuttles.

Nurse_Krin says:
CNS: don't worry... it will wear off in a few hours... after the water flushes the rug out

Host CO_Senn says:
::crosses her arms and looks at Triton again:: XO: We have a lot to do...

CNS_T`Salea says:
::Looks at Krin::

Nurse_Krin says:
::stares at the Klingon::

Host CO_Senn says:
OPS: Thank you Mr. Taylor.

FCO_Felhaber says:

SEC_KTracht says:
::stares back at Krin, with a semi-closed eye::

FCO_Felhaber says:
M'Tor: On the ship, I mean?

TO_M`Tor says:
:: Examines the ship, and compares it to the specs in the tricorder :: FCO: It looks like a fine ship, Have you noticed any irregularities ?

Host CO_Senn says:
XO: You'd better not!
OPS: Contact the starbase, and have them give us the Hudson's manifest. Also, request Colonel Kira to assign Federation personnel to fill the Hudson as well.

CMO_LtCmdr_Foley says:

CIV_Essex says:
~~~XO: sir I can't go... I have new orders... I'm... ::sighs::~~~

CSO_Rya says:
CO: Aye sir. ::tries to remember all the communications protocols:: COMM: DS9: This is the USS Europa requesting permission to depart.

FCO_Felhaber says:
@XO: ::smiles:: aye sir.

CNS_T`Salea says:
::Steps onto the bridge and walks over to the captain::

XO_Zaldivar says:
@CIV: When we exit the wormhole, its up to you to monitor the Dominion.

FCO_Felhaber says:
@::punches the impulse engines so the Hudson would enter the wormhole before the Europa::

Host CO_Senn says:
CSO: Set course for the wormhole.

Host Mikey says:
ACTION: While traveling through the wormhole, verteron variations are detected by both ships.

TO_M`Tor says:
:: continues to inspect the shuttles in the bay ::

FCO_Felhaber says:
@::feels a little down that he was not able to fly the Europa through the wormhole for the first time::

XO_Zaldivar says:
@COMM: Senn:  Where to Captain?

SEC_KTracht says:
::lucky he isn't feeling queasy anymore, or the bridge crew of the Europa would have seen something you don't see very often::

CTO_Nimitz says:
CO: Just in case, that's my motto, you know. ::starts the LRS sweeps::

Host CO_Senn says:
COM: XO: We'll start a regular exploration pattern, Lt. Rya will feed you the coordinates in a minute.

Host Mikey says:
ACTION: Sensor sweeps show that the two ships are approximately 900 light years from where they are supposed to be.

XO_Zaldivar says:
@FCO: Noted.  Fall in behind the Europa.

CMO_LtCmdr_Foley says:
::looks around at the bridge crew::

Host CO_Senn says:
::nods at Rya:: CSO: Please send them the coordinates so we can get started.

@XO: Aye, sir.  ::straightens the Hudson so it falls in behind the Europa::

CIV_Essex says:
@::stares at OPS and looks at the LRS::

CSO_Rya says:
CO: Aye...::sees the data:: Captain, we're 900 light years from where we should have exited the whole.

CTO_Nimitz says:
CO: Sir, we are where we are supposed to be. Apparently the exit of wormhole has moved 900 light years

CNS_T`Salea says:
::Glances over at the CSO and steps over to science to verify::

Host CO_Senn says:
::stands up:: CSO: How could that be?

XO_Zaldivar says:
::feels a sudden surprise and tension from Essex::

OPS_Lt_Taylor says:
@CIV: Problem?

CIV_Essex says:
@OPS: No...

CNS_T`Salea says:
CO:  Captain, location verified.  We are 900.04 years from our destined location.

XO_Zaldivar says:
~~~CIV: Natalia tell me we are not surrounded by Jem'Hadar~~~

Host CO_Senn says:
COM: Zaldivar: The exit point of the wormhole appears to have shifted places... hold on Hudson.

CIV_Essex says:
@~~~XO: No sir we are not~~~

CMO_LtCmdr_Foley says:
::frowns:: CO: It seems that the supposedly stable wormhole has shifted

Host CO_Senn says:
CMO, CNS, CSO, CTO: Theories? Is there a way back through this point...? Can we communicate with the Alpha quadrant?

CTO_Nimitz says:
CSO: Please check whether we are inside Dominion space or not

XO_Zaldivar says:
@FCO: We are holding positions.

FCO_Felhaber says:
@::swivels back:: XO:  We seem to be about 900 light years from where we should be, sir.

CSO_Rya says:
CO: We have very little data on this sector of space.

FCO_Felhaber says:
@XO: Aye, sir.  ::brings Hudson to a stop::

TO_M`Tor says:
:: looks at the new shuttles and wonders how they fly ::

XO_Zaldivar says:
@FCO: Excuse me?

CIV_Essex says:
@XO: we are lost sir... very, very lost

CNS_T`Salea says:
CO: According to sensor logs, there was an increase in verteron.

FCO_Felhaber says:
@XO: ::points to his helm data::

XO_Zaldivar says:
@CIV: What is going on?

CTO_Nimitz says:
CO: Sir, natural wormhole are known to move around their points of entrance and exit, but being this one an artificial one something related to the "Prophets" has to be happening

OPS_Lt_Taylor says:
@XO:XO:: Points to the Command Console Sensor log::

Host CO_Senn says:
::nods at Rya, then more seriously at Nimitz:: All: Then let's get to work... We'll coordinate our findings with what they have in the Hudson.

Host CO_Senn says:
::trying to remember if there's any kind of prophecy that could explain this, but does not think so::

XO_Zaldivar says:
@::brings up helm data on his console, and stares at it disbelievingly::

CIV_Essex says:
@XO: Unknown sir... 

CSO_Rya says:
::Sends out orders to science officers throughout the ship to coordinate with Ens. Ling::
