Host Bob_SM says:
=/\==/\==/\=RESUME MISSION=/\==/\==/\=
CO_Eden says:
::Stands in front of her chair on the bridge having just issued orders::
CSO_Taal says:
::after chatting with the Doctor in sickbay, Taal returns to the bridge only to be ordered off it by the captain::
CNS_Bauer says:
::On Bridge awaiting further orders::
FCO_Lewis says:
::Is still trying to get the Geneva around the enemy fire.::
FCO_Lewis says:
::He is at the helm.::
CTO_Usimov says:
::reads her terminal, then looks at others to see if they are starting to leave the bridge::
The_Listener says:
::continues to stand motionless on the bridge taunting Mordiggian:: Mordiggian: I take from you your power and your followers will fall!
CNS_Bauer says:
CO: Captain I have been thinking about our situation and I think I might have a theory as to what is happening here.
Host Bob_SM says:
ACTION: THE LISTENER REMAINS STOICALLY FASCINATED BY THE ONGOING BATTLE
CEO_Stricker says:
::On the bridge on the Geneva::
CNS_Bauer says:
CO: I have a lot of questions for Starfleet and I came up with some of my own answers.
CO_Eden says:
::Looks to each of the staff members on the bridge, then glares at the Listener's ranting::
CSO_Taal says:
::secures station and prepares to exit the bridge::
The_Listener says:
::watches the screen, his eyes glowing bright yellow::
FCO_Lewis says:
CTO: Open a hole in their defenses and I'll try to break through! Assuming you can hit them...
CO_Eden says:
CNS: Answers, Lieutenant?
CNS_Bauer says:
CO: Think about it.  Why would Starfleet Command send us a dangerous person like this guy? ::Eyes the ambassador::
CO_Eden says:
::Eyes the escape pod access nearby::
CTO_Usimov says:
::Glares at the FCO and continues to secure TAC::
The_Listener says:
Mordiggian: They give their lives for my glory not yours. You have failed. The battle is coming to an end and I have survived!
CO_Eden says:
CNS: We have to assume that they knew what they were doing... ::Gives him a look as if to say... 'Not a good time...'::
CSO_Taal says:
CNS: Starfleet has their reasons. Analyzing their reasons now is not productive.
CNS_Bauer says:
CO: To use a Starfleet ship to engage a pre-warp race with impressive but inferior weapons.  What is our beef with the Yringalla?
CSO_Taal says:
CNS: Hmm... There is a certain logic to your argument.
FCO_Lewis says:
::Thinks- Vulcans, and their "Logic".::
CTO_Usimov says:
::glances at each of the officers on the bridge, and continues to check on status of fighters::
CO_Eden says:
::Looks at the CEO so see if he's about ready to proceed::
CEO_Stricker says:
::Walks up to the CO and whispers:: CO: I’m all ready, just tell me when.
CSO_Taal says:
::exits the bridge with a few other bridge officers::
CNS_Bauer says:
CSO/CO: I disagree. I think theorizing is our only way to figure this out and when we do we remain at this guys mercy.  Has it ever occurred to anyone that these two beings the Ambassador and Mordiggian are able to use there abilities to control the minds of a few Starfleet higher ups.  We and the Yringalla are being used as pawns in a play game of power between to very childish aliens.
CTO_Usimov says:
::heads off the bridge along with others::
CO_Eden says:
CNS: For the most part Lieutenant... I agree.  ::Pauses::  But we do what we have to.
CNS_Bauer says:
ALL: Why is he called the "Listener"? He obviously has great telepathic powers and super-strength; it takes that to rip a man apart. I think these two clowns look at us and the Yringalla as pets or insignificant toys to use against each other. Heck, they fight like brothers.
CTO_Usimov says:
::proceeds rather quickly to main engineering::
CNS_Bauer says:
CO: I'm just trying to make sense of all this.
CSO_Taal says:
CNS: Maybe he's a bartender who listens.
CO_Eden says:
CNS: Lieutenant!  ::Looks at him sternly and motions for him to follow everyone leaving::
CSO_Taal says:
CNS: It's possible it could be a nickname given to him by his friends.
FCO_Lewis says:
::Laughs at Taal's comment.::
The_Listener says:
::turns slightly towards the counselor::
CNS_Bauer says:
CSO: Umm. I don’t think so. Would you drink anything "he" made?
CSO_Taal says:
CNS: Depends on what he specializes in.
CTO_Usimov says:
::looks around to see who else has already gotten off the bridge::
CSO_Taal says:
::turbolift door closes and heads towards engineering::
CO_Eden says:
::Waits as the bridge crew begins to stagger their exits::
CSO_Taal says:
::enters engineering with the other bridge officers::
CNS_Bauer says:
CO: If they can do this why not the power to infiltrate Starfleet command and send us here for this. This isn't what Starfleet does. The Listener told Mordiggian that he had the power now. This battle is not ours we were just tricked into getting in the middle of it. Why. Perhaps with all their power, they have no knowledge of technology and that’s why they needed us.
CSO_Taal says:
::heads for a console and prepares to transfer science command functions::
CTO_Usimov says:
::checks nearest console to be sure that there are no more fighters::
CEO_Stricker says:
::walks over to the CO:: CO: Just tell me when I'll active my LAN.
CNS_Bauer says:
CO: Just doin' my job Ma'am.
FCO_Lewis says:
::Decides to take manual, nothing's working.::
CO_Eden says:
CNS: I understand Lieutenant.  But you will follow the orders I previously gave you.  Now.  ::Sees that the bridge is nearly empty now::
The_Listener says:
::returns to focusing on the screen, his eyes glowing brighter than before::
FCO_Lewis says:
::Switches to manual flight.::
FCO_Lewis says:
Self: I have to jet...
CNS_Bauer says:
CO: I'm going. But at least consider what I've said. ::Exits::
CSO_Taal says:
::looks around engineering and sees only Commander Shras::
FCO_Lewis says:
CO: Sure you don't need any company? ::Sets the ship back on an evasive pattern.::
CSO_Taal says:
::wonders where the other senior staff members are::
CTO_Usimov says:
::sees there are no additional fighters joining the group::
CTO_Usimov says:
::checks shields to see how they are holding out::
CEO_Stricker says:
FCO: I believe you were ordered to go down to Engineering weren’t you?
CO_Eden says:
FCO: No.  You should hurry.
The_Listener says:
::delights in the destruction of another Yringallan ship::
FCO_Lewis says:
CO: Alright, but if you get yourself killed, I get your quarters. ::Smiles and runs to a turbolift, and when it opens, he enters.::
FCO_Lewis says:
TL: Main Engineering, NOW!
CTO_Usimov says:
::sees the shields are holding up, but just barely::
CO_Eden says:
::Glances at the CEO and nods:: Computer: Computer, disable all bridge controls and activate Bridge Module detachment sequence.  Voice authorization Eden-1-Charlie.
CNS_Bauer says:
::Makes way to engineering::
CSO_Taal says:
::watches as bridge functions transfer to the engineering stations::
FCO_Lewis says:
::The turbolift doors open down the hall from Engineering, Lewis makes a dash to it.::
CSO_Taal says:
::watches as the last fighter sputters and explodes::
CNS_Bauer says:
::Enters engineering thinking - "at least Stricter ain’t here".:: All: So who is in charge?
FCO_Lewis says:
::He enters Engineering, looking for where Helm was transferred.:: All: Where's Helm!?
CSO_Taal says:
FCO: That station is Helm Control.
CSO_Taal says:
::points to a station near the warp core::
CSO_Taal says:
CNS: Counselor, we could use you at the Engineering station.
CTO_Usimov says:
::checks to be sure all is in order, and sees that her team has gotten the last fighter::
FCO_Lewis says:
CSO: Thank you. ::Runs to the station, and gets the ship back on manual...::
CEO_Stricker says:
Computer: Activate 2nd module detachment authorization Stricker Echo-3.
FCO_Lewis says:
::Thinks- Oh great, the Core, I'm the first to fry if it blows...::
CNS_Bauer says:
CSO: You got it.
CSO_Taal says:
CTO: Prepare to lock a tractor beam on the bridge.
CTO_Usimov says:
::glances at the FCO as he walks past::
CTO_Usimov says:
CSO: Aye, no problem.
CNS_Bauer says:
::Takes place at an empty station and brings up engineering specs::
CO_Eden says:
Computer: Set timer for 5 minutes.  Mark.
FCO_Lewis says:
CTO: Hey, did ya miss your favorite shipmate?
CSO_Taal says:
ALL: I'm going to beam the escape pod to the Shuttlebay once it clears the bridge.
CTO_Usimov says:
::performs sequence to lock the tractor beam onto the bridge::
CEO_Stricker says:
Computer: Confirm a 5 minutes mark.
CTO_Usimov says:
::rolls eyes as the FCO speaks::
Host Bob_SM says:
ACTION: DUE TO THE INTENSITY OF THE ONGOING BATTLE, THE LISTENER IS ALL BUT OBLIVIOUS TO WHAT IS GOING ON IMMEDIATELY AROUND HIM, AS IF TO SAY, IT WAS ALL TOO IRRELAVENT
CSO_Taal says:
FCO: Once the bridge clears the ship, take us into tractor beam range.
FCO_Lewis says:
CTO: Oh come on! What's with you, I have the job, and I’m flying this thing manually!
FCO_Lewis says:
CSO: I'll see what I can do.
CO_Eden says:
::Keeps her eye on the Listener as she makes her way to the escape pod::  CEO: Let's go.
CTO_Usimov says:
::rolls eyes once again, and continues with duties::
CEO_Stricker says:
::Follows the CO to the escape pod:: CO: I’m right behind you ma'am.
CSO_Taal says:
CNS: I want you to monitor the tractor beam emitters, make sure they don't destabilize. I'm certain the captain would like her bridge back.
CNS_Bauer says:
::Overhears Lewis:: FCO: You know Mr. Lewis, I don't know you well, at all, but why is it every time I see you, you are in some kind of spat with someone?
CNS_Bauer says:
CSO: Aye, Sir.
CTO_Usimov says:
::nods at Zach as he approaches::
CSO_Taal says:
::waits for the bridge to detach::
CTO_Usimov says:
::checks to see if the bridge has detached yet::
CNS_Bauer says:
::Brings up tractor beam specs and monitors the emitting systems.  They appear within normal parameters.
CO_Eden says:
::Steps into the escape pod, the Listener now out of her view, and sits by the controls::
FCO_Lewis says:
CNS: Because, sir.
The_Listener says:
::remains motionless and now silent::
CNS_Bauer says:
CSO: Everything checks so far. I'll let you know if that changes.
FCO_Lewis says:
CTO: I see why you're sore... You're just mad because your boyfriend ditched you and ran off to Command!
CSO_Taal says:
CNS/FCO/CTO: We can discuss this at another time.
CTO_Usimov says:
CSO: I am ready when it detaches.
CSO_Taal says:
CNS: Very well.
FCO_Lewis says:
CSO: Yes, sir. ::Goes back to flying.::
CNS_Bauer says:
FCO: Mr. Lewis...... some compassion, please.
CO_Eden says:
::Shakes her head as she sets the coordinates of the pod to clear the path of the bridge:: CEO: Starfleet's going to have my head for this.
CTO_Usimov says:
::shakes head and ignores FCO::
CEO_Stricker says:
CO: I'm ready to launch ma'am.
CTO_Usimov says:
CSO: I don't want to continue it at all.  This is going absolutely no where.
CEO_Stricker says:
CO: If they give you any hassle, blame me. They've got my name on file.
CO_Eden says:
CEO: Coordinates are set.  Launch the pod.
CNS_Bauer says:
FCO: ....and some silence.  ::looks at Taal, shaking his head::
FCO_Lewis says:
::Thinks: Well, at LEAST I can't be demoted...::
CSO_Taal says:
::shares the Counselors need for silence::
CEO_Stricker says:
::set the coordinates and launches the pod:: CO: This can be our little secret. Engaging... ::Pod launches::
CTO_Usimov says:
::mouths thank you to Zack::
CO_Eden says:
CEO: My orders, my responsibility Commander.  I wouldn't have it any other way.  ::Hears the pod beginning to detach from the bridge::
CSO_Taal says:
::console beeps::
CNS_Bauer says:
::Winks and smiles at Kat::
CSO_Taal says:
::sees the bridge beginning to detach::
CNS_Bauer says:
::Punches the console to regulate an emitter variance::
Host Bob_SM says:
ACTION: THE BRIDGE MODULE DETACHES, WITH THE LISTENER STILL ABOARD IT
CEO_Stricker says:
CO: Oh come on, if it goes to a court martial, which I hope it won’t, I'll take the heat for you. That is what a good officer does for his or her Captain.
CSO_Taal says:
::waits for the pod to clear the bridge before beaming it to the Shuttlebay::
CSO_Taal says:
FCO: Are we in tractor beam range?
FCO_Lewis says:
CSO: Wait for it... Now!
CSO_Taal says:
CTO: Lieutenant?
CO_Eden says:
CEO: What kind of Captain would I be if I let you do that?  ::Watches the bridge begin to detach from the ship::
CTO_Usimov says:
CSO: Got it...ready...
Host Bob_SM says:
ACTION: THE LISTENER, FINALLY REALIZING WHAT HAS HAPPENED, ALSO REALIZED HE IS EXTREMELY VULNERABLE
CEO_Stricker says:
CO: In my professional Engineering opinion, a damn good one ma'am, just like you are.  ::Sees the pod detach::
CSO_Taal says:
*CO*: Captain? Are you on board safely?
The_Listener says:
::feels a slight jarring as the bridge module detaches and breaks his concentration::
CSO_Taal says:
CTO: Do you have a tractor lock?
CTO_Usimov says:
CSO: Yes, sir I do.
The_Listener says:
::moves over to the engineering console and tries to activate it::
CSO_Taal says:
::sees the tractor beam lock onto the bridge::
CSO_Taal says:
FCO: All stop.
CO_Eden says:
::Feels a slight thud as the pod materializes in the Shuttlebay:: *CSO*: Affirmative Lieutenant.  Thanks for the lift.  ::Opens the hatch to the pod::
FCO_Lewis says:
::Taps console.:: CSO: All stop.
CNS_Bauer says:
::Makes new adjustment on tractor beam emitters::
CSO_Taal says:
CNS: Try monitor activities on the bridge. It would be good to know what the Ambassador is doing.
The_Listener says:
:;moves from console to console trying to bring them online::
CEO_Stricker says:
CO: We are here in the shuttle bay. ::Gets out of the pod::
FCO_Lewis says:
CTO: I'm sorry... I wasn't thinking, I'm sorry about what happened on the Cardassians ship, just talk to me.
CNS_Bauer says:
CSO: Gottcha.
CNS_Bauer says:
::Taps at console a bit:: 
CO_Eden says:
::Steps out of the pod:: *CSO*: We're on our way to Engineering.  What's the status on the bridge module?
CTO_Usimov says:
::while watching console sees that the CO's pod has safely landed::
CSO_Taal says:
*CO*: Welcome back, Captain. We're currently at an all stop. We have a tractor beam locked onto the bridge and Mr. Bauer is attempting to monitor the situation aboard the bridge.
CTO_Usimov says:
FCO: Okay, truce, let's just forget it.
FCO_Lewis says:
FCO: Sounds, good. Now how about that date?
CNS_Bauer says:
::Is able to link monitors to the bridge:: CSO: Done Sir. You should be able to get a good look.
CEO_Stricker says:
::Steps out of the pod after the CO and heads into a TL with the CO:: TL: Engineering please!
FCO_Lewis says:
::Smiles::
CTO_Usimov says:
FCO: I would like to be your friend, but that is all I have to offer, now get back to flying this thing and let me get back to work also.
CSO_Taal says:
::walks behind the Counselor and looks over his shoulder at the console::
CSO_Taal says:
CNS: Good job.
CTO_Usimov says:
::steadying the tractor beam to be sure the bridge stays safe::
CSO_Taal says:
::sees the ambassador moving about::
The_Listener says:
::walks slowly over to tactical and notes the panel configuration::
CNS_Bauer says:
CSO: Thanks. Man, that guy has got to be stopped.
CSO_Taal says:
CNS: Any ideas as to what the Ambassador may be up to?
CO_Eden says:
::Steps out of the lift and quickly into Engineering::
CSO_Taal says:
CO: Captain.
CTO_Usimov says:
CSO: The Ambassador is at the TAC console on the bridge, trying to fiddle with it::
CSO_Taal says:
CO: She's all yours.
CEO_Stricker says:
::follows the CO and into Main Engineering::
CTO_Usimov says:
::sees CO and CEO walk into Main Engineering::
CTO_Usimov says:
::breathes a sigh of relief::
FCO_Lewis says:
All: Captain on deck!
CSO_Taal says:
CEO: Sorry about the mess.
CTO_Usimov says:
<Self>: At least the crew is all safe for now.
The_Listener says:
::sees a small relay which has a backup system that still has power::
CNS_Bauer says:
CSO: I still believe we are being used in a fight between two high powered alien mucky-mucks.  The Yringalla to why else would they take on the fleet. Unless they are really stupid.  But that would make Starfleet command stupid too... off the record.
CO_Eden says:
CSO: Thank you Lieutenant.  ::Approaches a console and skims the readouts::
FCO_Lewis says:
::Thinks- Great, now I don't get her quarters...::
CEO_Stricker says:
CSO: As long as my office is how I left it, I'll be fine. I have a few holo-programs in my desk I don't want broken.
CSO_Taal says:
CO: Counselor Bauer was able to get a visual on the bridge.
The_Listener says:
::raises his hand over it and watches sparks fly::
CNS_Bauer says:
::Answers Taal's question loud enough for Captain to hear as she and Stricker arrive::
CSO_Taal says:
::points to the console::
CNS_Bauer says:
:: Steps aside to give Captain a better view::
CO_Eden says:
::Watches the video link:: CSO: I doubt he could do much... ::Trails off as the picture on the screen shows him doing something to a console::
CSO_Taal says:
CO: Counselor Bauer believes he is attempting to access the tactical station.
The_Listener says:
::does the same thing at each station creating a plume of smoke and sparks that fills the bridge::
CNS_Bauer says:
CSO: Should I try to shut him out?
CEO_Stricker says:
::Sits down at the ENG main console::
CNS_Bauer says:
CO: Guess he isn't having any luck.
CO_Eden says:
CNS: He's fried all of the systems on the bridge.  I don't think you could even if you tried.
CNS_Bauer says:
CO: Then I guess we are ok then.  As long as the bridge is useless to him.
CO_Eden says:
CTO: Lieutenant, send another update to the flagship.  Even if they're not answering us, maybe they can hear us.
CTO_Usimov says:
::watches console to see all consoles on the bridge seeming to fry::
CSO_Taal says:
CTO: Tactical analysis? Could the Ambassador cause any further damage?
CTO_Usimov says:
CO: Aye, sir.
The_Listener says:
::pulls something out of his robe and holds it up::
FCO_Lewis says:
CO: Should I hold this position, ma'am? Or do you want us out of here?
CNS_Bauer says:
::Goes back to maintaining tractor beam integrity.::
CTO_Usimov says:
::taps console and attempts to raise a flagship::
The_Listener says:
Mordiggian: You will not win this battle!
CSO_Taal says:
CO: Captain, perhaps we should destroy the bridge
CNS_Bauer says:
CSO: NOOOO!
FCO_Lewis says:
CO: I agree with Taal.
The_Listener says:
::continues to taunt Mordiggian while holding the object::
CO_Eden says:
CSO: Wait... ::Watches the Listener's actions on the screen::
CSO_Taal says:
CNS: Counselor?
CTO_Usimov says:
Com: USS Vesuvius: Vesuvius: If you are out there we would like to let you know that we have gotten rid of all the fighters that were surrounding us, we still have an Ambassador on board our bridge, but he is virtually harmless at the moment.
CNS_Bauer says:
CSO: My dog is over there.
CSO_Taal says:
CNS: I suggest you beam your dog over.
CSO_Taal says:
::points to the OPS console::
CTO_Usimov says:
CSO: No sir, he can not - there is really no power on the bridge any more - he just seems to be frying anything he touches.
CNS_Bauer says:
CSO: Can I?
CSO_Taal says:
CTO: Very well. Take us to yellow alert.
FCO_Lewis says:
CNS: A dog? let it fry.
CSO_Taal says:
CNS: By all means.
CNS_Bauer says:
::Gives Lewis a cold glare::
CTO_Usimov says:
::puts ship on yellow alert::
FCO_Lewis says:
Self: Kill the damn Listener already.
The_Listener says:
::places the object on the Captain's seat and chants over it::
CNS_Bauer says:
::Uses console to lock onto canine signal and beams Goliath over:: COMPUTER: Energize.
CO_Eden says:
CTO: Lieutenant, Quantum Torpedoes to the bridge.  Fire!
CTO_Usimov  (TORPEDO.wav)
CTO_Usimov says:
CO: Aye sir...
CSO_Taal says:
FCO: Take us to a safe distance.
The_Listener says:
::leans over the object and touches a panel on it creating a cloud of blue smoke::
CNS_Bauer says:
<GOLIATH> :: Appears in Main Engineering, somewhat confused.  Sees CNS and goes to him::
CTO_Usimov says:
::fires on the bridge::
Host Bob_SM says:
ACTION: THE TORPEDO STRIKES ITS TARGET TRUE AND THE MODULE ERUPTS IN A SMALL FIREY EXPLOSION
The_Listener says:
::screams:: Mordiggian!
FCO_Lewis says:
Self: Good it's dead... I hope...
Host Bob_SM says:
ACTION: THERE IS NOTHING KNOWN TO MAN THAT COULD SURVIVE THAT EXPLOSION
CSO_Taal says:
::watches the console go fuzzy::
CTO_Usimov says:
::disengages tractor beam::
CNS_Bauer says:
GOLIATH: Lay down right here out of the way. ::Points to the area between his feet while standing at the console::
CO_Eden says:
::Shuts off the console with the video link::
