Host Frank_SM says:
<<<<<<<<<<<Resume Mission>>>>>>>>>>
XO_Odan says:
::still in sickbay reviewing med scan results of Kyrron::
CEO_Vernius says:
::On the bridge reviewing the logs and sensor data from the Pontifex::
CO_Durron says:
::sits slowly in the big chair and looks around the bridge:: ALL: Status report.
CTO_Kyrron says:
::returning to the bridge having successfully sought out some water and a quick bite to eat::
FCO_Kami says:
::At his post, keeping the ship on course.::
CEO_Vernius says:
CO: Sir, perhaps you could try your security clearance on the Pontifex's logs. They're classified beyond my security rating. ::looks perplexed::
XO_Odan says:
Jonas: Kyrron seems in shape to be used in duty if need be, Please archive this report. ::hands it over to the doctor::
CO_Durron says:
CEO: Forward them to my armrest.
CEO_Vernius says:
CO: Aye, sir. ::forwards the Pontifex's logs to the CO::
CTO_Kyrron says:
::enters the bridge::
CO_Durron says:
::brings up the Pontifex's logs and enters his security clearance.::
XO_Odan says:
<Jonas>XO: Aye, Cmdr.
XO_Odan says:
::nods and leaves sickbay::
CO_Durron says:
FCO: What is the ETA to the intercept.
CTO_Kyrron says:
CO:  Permission to take my station Captain?
CEO_Vernius says:
::looks up at the CTO's voice::
CO_Durron says:
CTO: Permission granted Lieutenant, glad to have you.
FCO_Kami says:
::Looks around at a new voice.::
XO_Odan says:
::enters a turbolift:: TL: Bridge!
CTO_Kyrron says:
::nods at the CO and makes her way to the tactical station::
CEO_Vernius says:
::raises an eyebrow at the CTO::
FCO_Kami says:
CO: Uh... About 15 minutes.
XO_Odan says:
::uses the time in the TL to take a few notes about the ship's new guest::
CO_Durron says:
::eyes the FCO:: FCO: Could you be a bit more specific?
CTO_Kyrron says:
::gives the CEO a brief nod then attempts to activate the console::
CEO_Vernius says:
::returns the CTO's nod::
FCO_Kami says:
::Watches the CTO for a moment, then blinks.:: CO: Huh? Oh! Sorry, sir. ETA: Sixteen minutes and twenty-three seconds.
XO_Odan says:
::exits the TL and steps on the bridge::
CEO_Vernius says:
::hears the TL doors open and nods a greeting to the XO::
CTO_Kyrron says:
::looks at the FCO pointedly::
XO_Odan says:
::nods back at the CEO then, looks around to see who else is on duty... notices Kyrron:: CO: Captain? ::approaches the CO::
CO_Durron says:
FCO: Splendid.  ::turns to the XO:: XO: Lieutenant Kyrron will be serving as our Chief Tactical Officer.  Could you make sure that the computer gets acquainted with her well.
CTO_Kyrron says:
::wonders if they all think she's some sort of spy::
XO_Odan says:
::sees that the CO is not joking:: CO: Can I speak to you in your RR, Captain.
CEO_Vernius says:
CTO: Lieutenant, welcome aboard. ::doesn't smile but looks respectful::
CO_Durron says:
XO: This is not something for discussion Commander, we have less than ten minutes until we run into a possibly hostile ship.  You have your orders.
CTO_Kyrron says:
CEO:  Thanks.  What's the situation, tactical-wise?
CTO_Kyrron says:
::registers the "possibly hostile ship remark" and looks at the CEO expectantly::
XO_Odan says:
CO: But sir... ::lowers her voice even though the CTO can hear:: she didn't even meet with the counselor, who knows how she will react with weapons in her hands if she meets those who brought her here...
Host Frank_SM says:
Action: The ship on an intercept course with the Europa slows and begins actively scanning the Federation ship.
CEO_Vernius says:
CTO: No torpedoes have been expended, since our last refit. All weapon systems are powered down. Shields are up, the ship is at Yellow alert. We are on an intercept course with an unknown vessel, ETA 14 minutes minus.
CTO_Kyrron says:
::nods::
CO_Durron says:
::matches the XO's low tone, and adds a bit of steel behind it:: XO: What part of not something for discussion do you have a problem with Commander?
CTO_Kyrron says:
CO:  We're being scanned.
CO_Durron says:
FCO: All stop.
XO_Odan says:
CO: It's your decision sir. I just thought I would voice my opinion. ::turns and walks towards the CTO::
FCO_Kami says:
CO: Aye, sir. All stop. ::Brings the ship to a smooth, but quick halt.::
CO_Durron says:
CEO: Repay the favor, tell me what you can.
XO_Odan says:
CTO: Lt Kyrron. I'm sure you heard my concerns. If at any time you feel that you are not in control of yourself let me know. You have gone through a traumatic event. If you require assistance let me know as well, I'll be there, ::walks to SCI1::
CTO_Kyrron says:
::is too stunned to reply to the XO::
CEO_Vernius says:
CEO: Aye, sir. Maximum scan power. Hopefully they'll get a few FLK's. ::activates sensors::
Host Frank_SM says:
Action: "Sierra Three" hails the Europa.
CEO_Vernius says:
CO: We're being hailed, sir.
CO_Durron says:
FCO: Open a channel, and put it on screen.
CTO_Kyrron says:
::closes her mouth, which had dropped open and refocuses on the console before her::
FCO_Kami says:
CO: Aye, aye, sir. Opening channel. ::Opens the channel and routes it to the main screen.::
XO_Odan says:
::sits at SCI one and checks LRS::
CO_Durron says:
::waits for Sierra Three to start talking::
Host Frank_SM says:
@COM: Europa: Unknown ship, you are trespassing in... ah.. Krellian space.  Drop your shields and prepare to be boarded for inspection.
XO_Odan says:
::knows that others may not have understood why she was brutally honest with the CTO but had to do it, checks scan results::
CO_Durron says:
::folds his arms:: COM: Sierra Three: Unknown Vessel, This is the Starfleet Vessel Europa,  We were not aware that this was Krellian space, and our custom prevents us from lowering shields in this situation.  Would you care to introduce yourself?
CEO_Vernius says:
::whispers:: CO: Sir, their shields are preventing our sensors from scanning their ship.
CO_Durron says:
::nods slightly and resumes looking unhappy::
Host Frank_SM says:
@COM: Europa: CO: You will lower your shields and be boarded.  One way or another.
XO_Odan says:
::checks the archives for any Krellian mentions::
CO_Durron says:
COM: Sierra Three: I have no desire to fight with you, but I don't know you so I can't let you board.  What is your name captain?
XO_Odan says:
CO: Sir, they didn't even sound convincing when they said they were from Krellian space. I'm checking if we have mentions of anything Krellian in our database.
CEO_Vernius says:
::whispers:: CO: Recommend Red Alert, sir.
CEO_Vernius says:
::keeps whispering:: CO: From their ship construction and looks, they appear to be pirates, sir.
XO_Odan says:
CO: Nothing in the database about Krellians, Captain.
CTO_Kyrron says:
::watches the viewscreen, disagreeing with the red alert thing, but understanding no one is likely to respect her opinion since they thinks she's either nuts or a spy::
XO_Odan says:
CTO: Lt, have you ever seen such a ship before? Or heard of Krellians?
FCO_Kami says:
::Watches the viewscreen suspiciously, listening to the chatter around him.::
CEO_Vernius says:
::sees the CTO is looking strange:: CTO: Do you have something to add? I'm more of a strategic specialist, not a tactical one.
CTO_Kyrron says:
XO: Negative Sir.
CO_Durron says:
::shakes his head slowly, than stops and almost smiles:: COM: Sierra Three: I, in fact, must insist that you lower your shields so that we can scan you before you proceed into our space.
CTO_Kyrron says:
CEO:  I think our powering weapons might be construed as hostile and we are not quite at that point yet.
Host Frank_SM says:
Action: The ship fires across the bow of the Europa, and simultaneously cuts the com.
FCO_Kami says:
::Chuckles lightly and whispers.:: Self: Oh, this'll be interesting.
CEO_Vernius says:
::looks thoughtful:: CTO: Agreed... but that may have just changed.
CTO_Kyrron says:
CEO:  I concur.
CO_Durron says:
CTO: Red alert. FCO: Evasive. CEO: Stand by damage control
FCO_Kami says:
::Eyes flare. Engages evasive maneuvers.::
CEO_Vernius says:
CO: Aye, sir.
FCO_Kami says:
CO: Ahead of you, sir.
XO_Odan says:
CTO: Aye. I'll send you a summary of what we have encountered so far so you are up to speed and if something looks familiar let us know as it may help us.
CTO_Kyrron says:
::activates red alert::
CEO_Vernius says:
::nods to the CTO: Glad to have you aboard. Let's do this.
CEO_Vernius says:
CO: Permission to report to Engineering, sir?
CO_Durron says:
CEO: Granted.
CTO_Kyrron says:
::allows a small smile to cross her face as she nods in acknowledgement at the CEO::
CEO_Vernius says:
::nods to the CO and enters the turbolift:: CTO: Try and keep us in one piece, Lieutenant. Computer: Main Engineering, Deck 24.
XO_Odan says:
::sends a summary of the last events and discoveries to the CTO and then focuses back on the action::
CTO_Kyrron says:
::chuckles::
CTO_Kyrron says:
CO:  Weapons charged, Captain.
CO_Durron says:
CTO: Target their warp engines, phasers only, fire on my command.
Host Frank_SM says:
Action: The Vessel moves forward shields up, closing the distance on the Europa.
CTO_Kyrron says:
CO:  Targeting warp engines.  ::does so::
CEO_Vernius says:
::the Turbolift slides to a halt and Alan strides into Main Engineering:: ALL: All damage control teams, stand to.
CO_Durron says:
FCO: Break to course zero three zero mark three three zero, maximum impulse.
CTO_Kyrron says:
CO:  Target locked, although the closer we get the more accurate the shot will be.
FCO_Kami says:
CO: Aye, course zero three zero mark three three zero. Maximum impulse. ::Fingers jump across the console.::
CO_Durron says:
FCO: Add fifteen degree port negative roll.  CTO: Target will be  twelve o'clock high, fire in fifteen seconds.
FCO_Kami says:
CO: Aye, ::Fingers jump again.:: fifteen degree port negative roll.
Host Frank_SM says:
Action: As the Vessel draws closer sensor detect a very powerful tractor beam powering up.
XO_Odan says:
CO: Sir, sensors detect a very powerful tractor beam powering up... that doesn't sound good.
CTO_Kyrron says:
CO  They are powering something up... possibly a tractor beam.:: begins counting down 15 seconds::
CEO_Vernius says:
::brings up a sensor repeater on his console in main engineering::
CTO_Kyrron says:
CO:  Switch target to tractor emitters, Captain?
Host Frank_SM says:
Action: The tractor beam is engaged and it instantly begins to drain heavily on the Europa's shields.
XO_Odan says:
CO: Tractor beam has been engaged sir...
CO_Durron says:
CTO: Put a torpedo spread down the beam.
CEO_Vernius says:
::eyes widen at the shield indicator::
CTO_Kyrron says:
CO:  With pleasure.  ::targets the emitters and sends a torpedo spread into the tractor beam::
CEO_Vernius says:
::reroutes power to reinforce the shields::
CEO_Vernius says:
*CTO*: Rerouting power to shields.
CO_Durron says:
CTO: Fire phasers.
CTO_Kyrron says:
CO:  Torpedoes away.
CTO_Kyrron says:
CO:  Target is still warp engines?
CO_Durron says:
CTO: Aye.
Host Frank_SM says:
Action: The Europa's torpedo finds it's target and the tractor beam is disengaged, but not before severely draining the Europa's shields.
CTO_Kyrron says:
::fires phasers at the ship's warp engines::
XO_Odan says:
CTO: Good firing.  CO: The tractor beam is disengaged.
CEO_Vernius says:
Engineering Team 1: Check the power conduits on Deck 28, section 14, hurry!
Host Frank_SM says:
Action: The ships engines are damaged, but only slightly.  It returns fire.
CTO_Kyrron says:
CO:  Shields are weakened.  *CEO*:  Any more power available for shields?
CEO_Vernius says:
*CTO*: Working on it.... keep your pants on.
CO_Durron says:
FCO: Signal Engineering that we will need warp power presently.  Prepare to go to warp along our previous course.
CTO_Kyrron says:
::watches the incoming fire::
CO_Durron says:
XO: And their warp engines?
FCO_Kami says:
CO: Aye. ::Sends Engineering a message through his console.::
CEO_Vernius says:
::Diverts power from all non-essential systems to shields. Stellar Cartography, holodecks, and replicators all go offline::
XO_Odan says:
::scans Sierra-three::
XO_Odan says:
CO: Their warp engines were damaged, Captain, but are still operational according to scans.
CO_Durron says:
FCO: Maintain course.  CTO: Disable their warp engines, fire at your discression.
CEO_Vernius says:
::Sees the indication about warp engines and mentally pats himself on the back for keeping all warp systems at full power:: Engineering Team 2: Prepare the core for warp speed.
FCO_Kami says:
CO: Aye.
CTO_Kyrron says:
CO:  Aye Captain.  ::targets warp engines and continues firing phaser bursts::
CEO_Vernius says:
*FCO*: You have Warp 8 at anytime, give me 5 minutes if you need higher than that.
Host Frank_SM says:
Action: Sierra Three fires again, this time doing some serious damage to the Europa, Phasers go offline, as do targeting sensors.
FCO_Kami says:
*CEO*: Thank you. CO: Maximum of warp 8. More power in 5 minutes.
CTO_Kyrron says:
::swears loudly in Zaldan::  CO:  Targeting sensors are down.  Phasers as well.  I could manually target and fire torpedoes.
CEO_Vernius says:
::curses under his breath:: Engineering team 3: Get to the phasers on Deck 2, section 4. The power relay is down.
Host Frank_SM says:
Action: With the last volley, however, Sierra three loses warp drive.
CEO_Vernius says:
Engineering Team 4: Tactical sensor unit #1, deck 4 section 18. go!
XO_Odan says:
CO: It seems they have lost warp drive.
CO_Durron says:
::grips his chair:: FCO: Engage previous course, warp seven.  CTO: No.
FCO_Kami says:
CO: Aye. ::Engages course at warp seven.::
CEO_Vernius says:
::attempts to force the backup set of Tactical sensors online. For some reason, the relay failed::
CO_Durron says:
<invert CO and XO on last>
CTO_Kyrron says:
CO:  Aye Captain.  ::is relieved not to have to rely on manual targeting::
CO_Durron says:
XO: Check the starcharts, and see if there is anywhere to hide nearby.
XO_Odan says:
CO: Aye. ::taps on her console to bring up the startcharts::
Host Frank_SM says:
Action: The Europa escapes, but not without taking heavy damage to it's weapons systems. Sierra Three is dead in the water.
CTO_Kyrron says:
::wipes some sweat from her face::
CEO_Vernius says:
*CTO*: Backup tactical sensors should be coming online any minute. The Phasers may take some time, there was serious damage done to the invertor coils on Deck 2.
