USS GENEVA MISSION TRANSCRIPT – 10505.20

XO_Taal says:
Summary: The USS Geneva is traveling at high warp alongside the Cardassian Keldon known as the Tralor. A Cardassian engineering team is on board the Geneva lending a hand in effecting repairs to the damaged systems suffered from the Orion attack. The Cardassian Gul and his first officer are back aboard the Tralor.
XO_Taal says:
Long range sensors detect the Orion vessels warp trail. Meanwhile, Captain Taal is back on board the Geneva.

CNS_Bauer says:
XO: Anything exciting happening? How long 'til we catch up to the Orion ship?
CO_Shras says:
:: takes a pile of reports and walk to the bridge ::
CMO_Kimura says:
::walks down the corridor towards the turbolift and bumps into a Cardassian:: Cardassian: Oh! Pardon me...
XO_Taal says:
CNS: I do not think so.
XO_Taal says:
OPS: Status?
OPS_L`aiyan says:
CO/XO/CNS: The Orion ship warp trail is on long range sensors
CNS_Bauer says:
XO: I see.
XO_Taal says:
FCO: Lay in a pursuit course, Lieutenant.
CTO_Keach says:
XO: Are you sure we can get repairs finished before we encounter them again sir?
XO_Taal says:
CTO: I cannot be certain. One would hope with the added manpower, we would be able to complete repairs in a timely matter.
CO_Shras says:
XO: Have you seen the latest progress report on the repairs?
CNS_Bauer says:
OPS: Can we estimate time of interception with the Orions?
CTO_Keach says:
::Mutters to self:: I hope so  ::and give an assuring smile::
OPS_L`aiyan says:
::nods:: CNS: About 30 minutes, sir.
XO_Taal says:
CO: No, I cannot say that I have, Captain.
CNS_Bauer says:
OPS: Thirty minutes? Thank you.
CO_Shras says:
XO: I don't know if we can afford to confront the Orion's again in our current state
CEO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
::in engineering working on the fusion generators repairs::
XO_Taal says:
CO: It is your call, sir. You are the Captain for a reason.
FCO_Williams says:
XO: Aye sir
CNS_Bauer says:
CO/XO: Sirs, then, what will be our course of action once we meet up with the Orions?
CMO_Kimura says:
TL: Bridge.
CEO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
::finishes up with that generator and gets out from under it and stands up and begins the process of heating it up to standby readiness::
CTO_Keach says:
::Busy studying the readout of the ship's systems::
XO_Taal says:
CNS: I do not know, Commander.
CO_Shras says:
CNS/XO: Any other Federation ship near us?
CNS_Bauer says:
XO: Perhaps, we should come up with a plan.
FCO_Williams says:
::lays in course and speed to intercept Orion ship::
XO_Taal says:
CNS: What kind of plan do you suggest?
CMO_Kimura says:
::arrives on the Bridge:: CO: Captain, may I speak with you a moment?
CNS_Bauer says:
OPS: Ensign. Any other Federation ships nearby our location?
XO_Taal says:
::spots the Doctor address the Captain::
OPS_L`aiyan says:
::shakes her head:: CNS/CO: No sir, we're in Cardassian territory, it's unlikely any will show up any time soon, sir.
CEO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
*CO*: Sir Fusion reactor number 2 is online and on hot standby.
CNS_Bauer says:
XO: Well, it seems I don't have all the facts of this mission. It would be hard for me to devise a course of action.
CNS_Bauer says:
OPS: As I thought. Thanks.
CO_Shras says:
XO: See this with the Cardassians, we are in their territory after all
CO_Shras says:
CMO: In my ready room doctor
CMO_Kimura says:
CO: Certainly. ::walks to the Ready Room::
XO_Taal says:
CNS: We are all in that position, Commander.
CNS_Bauer says:
XO: Are we?
XO_Taal says:
::looks at the Counselor::
XO_Taal says:
CNS: Certainly.
CEO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
::moves on to the next generator and begins a diagnostic on the next reactor::
CO_Shras says:
:: Precedes the doctor and take his seat behind his desk ::
CO_Shras says:
CMO: What can I do for you doctor?
XO_Taal says:
ACTION: LONG RANGE SENSORS DETECT MULTIPLE WARP TRAILS IN THE AREA.
CNS_Bauer says:
XO: Ok, Commander ::Gives a look that says I trust you::
OPS_L`aiyan says:
::taps at her console, keeping an eye on sensors...:: XO/CNS: Long range sensors are picking up multiple warp trails in this area, sirs.
CMO_Kimura says:
::takes out a bottle from her coat pocket and hands it to the Captain:: CO: Your medicine. In capsule form so you don't have to keep running down to Sickbay every time. Especially with the Cardassians on board. ::smiles::
CNS_Bauer says:
::Stands up:: OPS: Multiple?
XO_Taal says:
::stands up::
OPS_L`aiyan says:
::nods:: CNS: Yes sir.
XO_Taal says:
OPS: Can you identify the ships?
CEO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
Self: This one is not so bad only a few fried relays and burned out power leads.
OPS_L`aiyan says:
::tries to identify the warp signatures:: XO: Attempting to do so now, sir
CNS_Bauer says:
::Moves to the back of bridge and finds Ensign Keach::
CNS_Bauer says:
CTO: Ensign.
CTO_Keach says:
::Looks over at the counselor:: CNS: Sir?
CNS_Bauer says:
::Whispers:: CTO: You do have a couple of your officers still acting as "escort" for our Cardassian friends on board?
CO_Shras says:
CMO: What exactly is this? I don't question your work but I never take any medication without knowing what it is, does
CTO_Keach says:
::Whispers back:: CNS: I believe so
OPS_L`aiyan says:
XO: There's too many to pinpoint any specific warp signatures, sir. They... appear to be heading for an asteroid belt...
XO_Taal says:
OPS: An asteroid belt?
XO_Taal says:
FCO: All stop.
CNS_Bauer says:
CTO: Very good. Just in case, right? Carry on.
XO_Taal says:
OPS: See if the Cardassians found the same multiple trails as us.
OPS_L`aiyan says:
::twitches her tail a little, unsure of what to make of this new event in this mission, but nods to confirm the XO's question:: XO: Yes sir, an asteroid belt.
XO_Taal says:
*CEO*: What is the status of the repairs.
XO_Taal says:
<?>
CTO_Keach says:
::Nods:: CNS: Aye sir
OPS_L`aiyan says:
::sends a message to the Cardassian ship, about the multiple trails::
FCO_Williams says:
XO: Aye, sir. All stop ::sets engines to all stop::
CMO_Kimura says:
CO: Due to your frequent black-outs and fatigue-related injuries, I want you to be alright and in good shape for our guests. It's pretty harmless, actually. Just stimulates your brain a little better and helps you focus. Normally we don't give pills, but like I said before, you don't need to be spending your time in Sickbay.
CNS_Bauer says:
::Returns to his place::
FCO_Williams says:
XO: Panel indicates engines at stop
OPS_L`aiyan says:
XO: The Cardassians have confirmed they've read the same trails, sir, they were about to ask us if we'd seen them themselves...
CEO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
::begins to fix the relays and replaces them and then fixes the power leads::
FCO_Williams says:
XO: Forward movement has stopped, engines on maintain position, sir
XO_Taal says:
OPS: You may send a confirmation, Ensign.
XO_Taal says:
FCO: Hold this position for now.
CO_Shras says:
CMO: Alright then, but send me a note about the known side effects, and I hope this will only be for a short period, I expect to get back as my old self again
OPS_L`aiyan says:
::nods and sends the confirmation, as requested::
FCO_Williams says:
XO: Aye, sir
CEO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
::runs a diagnostic on Reactor 3 and it comes back 100%::
XO_Taal says:
*CO*: Captain to the bridge.
CNS_Bauer says:
::Looks at the long range sensor readings and the multiple warp trail signatures::
CEO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
XO: Fusion reactors 1-3 now online and on hot standby.
CTO_Keach says:
::Slide his fingers over the console and initiates a word format message to his office pertaining to the Cardassians, hoping that one of his officers reads it::
CMO_Kimura says:
CO: You'll only need to take it for a couple of days.
XO_Taal says:
*CEO*: Thank you, Lieutenant.
CMO_Kimura says:
::shrugs:: CO: That's all, then. ::smiles::
CEO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
*XO*: Just doing my job sir.
CO_Shras says:
CMO: You have time to sit and talk about you for a moment?
CEO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
::walks over to the 4th reactor and doesn't see any physical damage so she runs a diagnostic::
CMO_Kimura says:
CO: Oh, sure. I have all the time in the world, actually. ::smiles::
CO_Shras says:
CMO: You want something to drink?
CO_Shras says:
:: get up a walk to the replicator ::
XO_Taal says:
CNS: What do you make of it?
CMO_Kimura says:
CO: Coffee will be fine.
CNS_Bauer says:
XO: Looks like a convoy. Where they are going is unclear but it looks like their all going to the same place.
XO_Taal says:
::wonders where the Captain is::
CEO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
::diagnostic came back showing a small  electrical spike in the turbine::
CEO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
Self: Well I'll be a monkey's uncle. Where did that come from and how did it get way in there????
FCO_Williams says:
::maintaining Geneva's position, monitoring propulsion systems::
CO_Shras says:
CMO: Any preferred kind of coffee?
OPS_L`aiyan says:
::listening to what the XO & CNS are saying:: CNS: It's not a convoy, the decay rates of the different trails suggest they've gone by at different times, sir.
CMO_Kimura says:
CO: Black.
CEO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
Computer: Is there any way that this spike can be repaired here or will the entire reactor be replaced?
CMO_Kimura says:
CO: Selection 1, I think.
XO_Taal says:
OPS: Any ideas where they are converging?
CO_Shras says:
Replicator: Coffee selection one and one Andorian coffee
CEO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
<LARCS> CEO: Reactor can not be fixed onboard. Replacement of entire Generator must be done at space dock.
OPS_L`aiyan says:
::shakes her head:: XO: No sir, I'm not particularly familiar with Cardassian territory, so I couldn't even hazard a guess.
CEO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
Self: That is not what I wanted to hear. Damn the XO is going to go ballistic.
XO_Taal says:
CNS: Any suggestions, Commander?
CO_Shras says:
:: take the cups and give the doctor the selection one, tasting the Andorian coffee in the second cup ::
CEO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
*XO*: Sir, I have a problem with number four fusion reactor. I can not bring it online. There is a power spike in the reactor and it needs to be completely replaced when we get to space dock. For now I have it locked down in SCRAM.
CO_Shras says:
CMO: Tell me doctor, any problems in sickbay lately? :: sitting down ::
CNS_Bauer says:
::Looks over sensor scans again than to Taal:: XO: Seems there is something, somewhere that a whole lot of folk want. Could the reason for this archeological dig with the Cardassians have something to do with the prize everyone seems to be after?
CMO_Kimura says:
::takes the cup:: CO: No... Just getting our evaluations in... That’s what I've been doing these past few days. ::sips her coffee::
XO_Taal says:
*CEO*: Understood. Do what you can for now.
CEO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
*XO*: Understood sir. I will be continuing checking all the fusion reactors.
XO_Taal says:
CNS: Archeological dig?
CEO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
::keys in the codes to keep reactor 4 in SCRAM mode. ::
XO_Taal says:
OPS: Which systems are affected by the shutdown of the reactor?
CNS_Bauer says:
XO: The dig you left with the Admiral for. Did the Admiral tell you what this "dig" was to uncover?
CO_Shras says:
CMO: and you? are you satisfied with your work?
XO_Taal says:
CNS: Ah yes. No, the Admiral did not.
OPS_L`aiyan says:
::checks her console to see which systems have been affected by the reactor going offline::
CEO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
::moves on to reactor 5 and runs a scan to determine if there is any physical damage to it::
CMO_Kimura says:
CO: Truly. ::smiles: I love my work. I just wish that Sickbay had more connections to what's going on with the rest of the ship. ::smiles:: But it is a curse we Medical staff must bear, and I'm okay with it.
XO_Taal says:
ACTION: SENSORS DETECT THE CARDASSIANS LAUNCH A SHUTTLE IN THE DIRECTION OF THE WARP TRAIL CONVERGENCES.
FCO_Williams says:
::notes that reactor 4 indicator has gone to lockdown::
CNS_Bauer says:
XO: Well, suppose this dig was about a valuable find. Suppose it was found just before we got here. Now, everyone is after whoever took it?
CEO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
*OPS*: Sir I have one reactor down but the rest I am checking manually and bringing them online and in hot standby just in case.
XO_Taal says:
CNS: Pure speculation, Counselor. If it were the case, I am certain the Admiral would have contacted us.
CEO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
::the scan reveals nothing so she runs the diagnostic and it finds nothing wrong with #5 so she brings it online and to hot standby::
CO_Shras says:
CMO: Well you know we have an engineering station up here so the CEO can be near us and still keep an eye on the ship, maybe you could use a station here from time to time to spend some more time on the bridge
CNS_Bauer says:
XO: The Orions are here, so are the Ferengi. Add the Cardassians and it’s not exactly the kind of party I'd want to attend. Is there all being here coincidental?
OPS_L`aiyan says:
::blinks a bit:: XO: Um...only the engines and internal sensors, sir. Lieutenant Running Horse just reported only one of the reactors is down now...
OPS_L`aiyan says:
XO: .. and sensors picked up that the Cardassians just launched a shuttle in the direction of the warp trails, sir
XO_Taal says:
CNS: Believe in coincidences, Commander. They happen all the time. Just don't trust them.
CMO_Kimura says:
CO: I'd like to, but I'm afraid I'd get in the way. ::smiles:: Eventually, maybe Starfleet will make a Medical console on the Bridge for us poor doctors! ::laughs and drinks her coffee::
XO_Taal says:
*CO*: Captain, to the bridge. The Cardassians have just launched a shuttle.
CNS_Bauer says:
XO: ...and now according to long range sensors are a whole bunch more party crashers. Seriously? Coincidence.... that doesn’t sound very logical.
CO_Shras says:
*XO*: On my way
XO_Taal says:
FCO: Can you confirm the engines are offline?
CO_Shras says:
CMO: Please follow me doctor
CO_Shras says:
:: walks to the bridge ::
CMO_Kimura says:
CO: Duty calls. ::leaves her coffee on his desk and follows him out::
CO_Shras says:
XO: What is going on?
XO_Taal says:
CNS: It would not be logical to not believe in them, Commander.
XO_Taal says:
CO: Captain, we've detected multiple warp signatures in the area.
CNS_Bauer says:
::Is more confused than ever. He doesn't have all the pieces to this mystery and that frustrates him::
FCO_Williams says:
XO: Aye, sir. Checking now.
CNS_Bauer says:
XO: Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar, Commander?
FCO_Williams says:
XO: Minimal downgrade in performance sir. We can still run if we have to.
XO_Taal says:
CO: The Cardassians have launched a shuttle in the direction of the convergences of the warp trails, and also one of the reactors is offline.
CEO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
*XO*: Sir, reactor 5 is online and hot.
XO_Taal says:
CO: Lieutenant Running Horse could probably explain it better for you. However, we are without propulsion and internal sensors.
CO_Shras says:
XO: Have you spoken with Gul Mileck?
XO_Taal says:
*CEO*: Thank you, Lieutenant.
XO_Taal says:
CO: No, Captain.
CO_Shras says:
OPS: Hail the Cardassians
CMO_Kimura says:
::walks over to the empty Engineering seat and sits down, trying to figure out what is going on::
CNS_Bauer says:
CO/XO: Where are the Gul... and his first officer?
OPS_L`aiyan says:
CO: Yes sir ::hails the Cardassian ship::
Gul_Mileck says:
@COM: Geneva: Mileck here.
CNS_Bauer says:
::Thinks - There probably in that shuttle that was just launched::
CEO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
::moves to the next one and scans it and finds nothing wrong and brings it also to hot standby and continues down the line for all 10 reactors::
CEO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
Self: For the first time in as many weeks they are finally working at full capacity.
CEO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
XO: Sir, I have great news. All reactors except number 4 are online and on hot standby.
XO_Taal says:
*CEO*: Thank you, Lieutenant.
Gul_Mileck says:
@COM: Geneva: Is this some kind of game? I don't have all day.
CO_Shras says:
COM: Mileck: This is Captain Shras
Gul_Mileck says:
@COM: Geneva: CO: Captain, what can I do for you?
CO_Shras says:
COM: Mileck: We are monitoring one of your shuttles leaving for the warp trail we have been following, could you tell us if you have any information on the ship we are pursuing?
FCO_Williams says:
::watching viewscreen::
Gul_Mileck says:
@COM: Geneva: CO: I don't have any information regarding the Orion vessel that attacked us.
Gul_Mileck says:
@COM: Geneva: CO: However, if memory serves me correctly, this used to be Obsidian Order territory until they abandoned it a few years ago.
Gul_Mileck says:
@COM: Geneva: CO: If the Orion Syndicate is here, I'd hate to find out what their intentions are.
