Host COBradley says:
damn..

Host Mark_AGM says:
<Dr. Neidl>  Snow: Ah... Doctor, you've returned.

ENG_Mav says:
@:: has sensors for this area too... nothing much ::

EngMadiso says:
::initiates diagnostic, level 3::

XO_Love says:
*Snow*: Dr. we have a medical emergency on deck four, alpha section,

Host COBradley says:
ALL: stand down.

FCOWalter says:
CO: Aye, sir

Host COBradley says:
XO: keep those sensors peeled.  They could show up anywhere.

TacRightm says:
::Lowers to red alert::

ENG_Mav says:
@Madison: Could you try to get a longer sensor range for this hunk o' junk ship, while I work on defensive systems?

Host Dr_Neidl says:
Snow: I'll take care of that emergency... you take care of our three guests.. ::Gestures to the three unconscious diminutive beings on the biobeds::

Host COBradley says:
XO: did the sensors record how they opened that portal?

EngMadiso says:
@Mav: Sure thing

XO_Love says:
CO: Capt, i am checking the database now...

EngMadiso says:
::goes to work on lateral sensor array::

Host Dr_Neidl says:
::Picks up a Med-Kit and grabs a few nurses and heads to Deck 4::

Dr_Snow says:
Neidl: Ok , go.

ENG_Mav says:
@*Captain Bradley*Sir, we've gotten a little bit of sensors over here, along with some pitiful shields and weapons working. These power generators are working.

Host COBradley says:
*Mav*: Good work.  Can you determine how they open the portals for themselves?

Dr_Snow says:
::moves to first unconscious from lying in biobed::

EngMadiso says:
::is on alien ship::

ENG_Mav says:
@*Bradley*Well... Some kind of Magnetic or Gravitational pulse or something... I'm not sure. I'd have to get on Griffon to investigate.

FCOWalter says:
::has nothing to do now that the battle is over, but glad he didn't get cut in half::

Host COBradley says:
*Mav*: OK> Can the vessel withstand a tractor beam?

XO_Love says:
CO: Sensor logs show that there was an anti-neutrino burst at the moment of the portal opening...

ENG_Mav says:
@*Bradley*I believe so. We should have enough SIF power.

Host COBradley says:
XO: work on trying to recreate it should we need to.

XO_Love says:
CO: Working on it now Sir..

TacRightm says:
Love: Do you require assistance?

FCOWalter says:
::plots course to get within tractor range of the alien ship, anticipating the CO's order::

XO_Love says:
Tac: Not at the moment Ensign, but you will be the first to know..

Dr_Snow says:
::life signs stable on first patient::

Host COBradley says:
*Mav*: Keep working.  We need that thing under it's own power.

ENG_Mav says:
@*CO*Aye, sir.

EngMadiso says:
::works on deflector grid::

Host COBradley says:
FCO: engage tractor and let's head home.  Full impulse.  Engage.

XO_Love says:

Host COBradley says:
FCO: ETA to our space?

ENG_Mav says:
@:: tries to get engines on this ship working, by using a Neutrino-Radon-Texicom pulse over and over, turning all dormant energy into powerful little lightning bolts ::

FCOWalter says:
CO: Passing through now, sir.

Host COBradley says:
XO: any luck in recreating their beam?

Host Dr_Neidl says:
::Alien in Sickbay, his skin starts returning to a deeper shade of green, indicating chloroform in his biochemistry::

TacRightm says:
XO: I am detecting a giant spacial anomaly .75 light years away

Dr_Snow says:

ENG_Mav says:
@:: on the puny sensors, a big BLEEEEEEEEEEEEP is heard ::

Host Dr_Neidl says:
ACTION: The Griffon and Alien vessel are jostled slightly as they pass through the portal back into Federation space.

TacRightm says:
::does a careful job of laying a minefield

Host Dr_Neidl says:
ACTION: Make it back safely.

Host COBradley says:
::raises eyebrows::

ENG_Mav says:
@:: engines.... On-line! ::

FCOWalter says:
::Holds helm for a second:: Sir, were back in Federation space

ENG_Mav says:
@*Captain*Sir, Engines on-line! Only thrusters, but that's something.

EngMadiso says:
@::powers engines, does a runup test::

ENG_Mav says:
@:: listens to the loud humming of the crappy engines.... loud.... sighs and grins ::

TacRightm says:
Capt: we are back in Federation space

Host Dr_Neidl says:
ACTION: The Ships re-emerge in the Nebula

Host COBradley says:
*Mav*: we might need to cut you loose, be ready.

@::moves to status control, monitors sensors::

FCOWalter says:
::gets some flight moves ready in case they are needed::

Dr_Snow says:
::watching as all three patients start to return to a rich green color::

Host COBradley says:
XO: will that alien ship fit in the shuttle bay?

ENG_Mav says:
@*CO*Aye Aye, Sir. I'll try to get some impulse in time. Just a little rear in the kick.

XO_Love says:
CO: No Sir, the Ship is too Large to fit..

Host COBradley says:
::nods to XO::

Host COBradley says:
XO: what is that large alien ship doing?

Dr_Snow says:
::sees first patient start to stir in bed::

Host Dr_Neidl says:
<Gumby Alien>  ::Stirs more and tries to sit up::

TacRightm says:
Capt: there is an alien ship of the bow of our ship!

Dr_Snow says:
::walks to the side of bed::

XO_Love says:
Capt: Unknown Sir, does not register on sensors..

Host COBradley says:
::nods again to XO::

EngMadiso says:
@::picks up ghost image on sensors::

Host Dr_Neidl says:
<Gumby>  W-where am I?

ENG_Mav says:
@:: has a little impulse power, shield power, weapons power, life support, and Comm ::

EngMadiso says:
@*ENG_Mav*  Sir, I have a blot on the sensors, probably nothing.

XO_Love says:
CO: Sir, i have duplicated the Anti-Neutrino pulse,

TacRightm says:
Xo: should I put the image on screen?

ENG_Mav says:
@:: on alien ship... the weak one ::

Host Mark_AGM says:
<Gumby> W-Where am I?  Who are you?

FCOWalter says:
::wondering what to do now::

ENG_Mav says:
@:: has a tiny bit of impulse power ::

FCOWalter says:

ENG_Mav says:
@:: gets helm control to engineering ::

XO_Love says:
Tac: Status, what’s going on out there..

Host Mark_AGM says:
<Gumy> Snow: Tired.

ENG_Mav says:
@*CO*We're ready to go on our own power if you need to let us go.

FCOWalter says:
CO: Sir, we're at the edge of the nebula, leaving it now

Host COBradley says:
*Mav*: acknowledged.

Host COBradley says:
Bridge: Status report.  All stations.

EngMadiso says:
@::monitors ship status::

ENG_Mav says:
@:: hoping to try piloting a big ship... well, bigger than a shuttle ::

Dr_Snow says:
Gumby: Try to rest now. I will fill you in soon. ::gives alien a warm smile::

Host Mark_AGM says:
<Gumby> ::Gets agitated, his skin gets a purple tinge to it::  Where is my crew?  Are they safe?

Host COBradley says:
::waits for crew to respond.

FCOWalter says:
Helm responding, sir.  Everything seems to be ok here

EngMadiso says:
@::takes the Conn of the alien ship as Mav takes Ops::

Host Mark_AGM says:
ACTION: The Nebula begins to swirl, bursts of light flash from middle of it.

ENG_Mav says:
@:: at Conn of alien ship, noticing Madison is looking a little tired ::

ENG_Mav says:
@:: looks at the image on the ship's viewer...........:: Oh my..........

Dr_Snow says:
::looks to see if the other aliens are coming around::

EngMadiso says:
@::at Ops, keeps fading in and out of sleep::

ENG_Mav says:
@:: scans the nebula ::

TacRightm says:
::at Tac of the Griffon(hopefully)::

ENG_Mav says:
@:: at Conn of alien ship, trying to stabilize it, since the Griffon’s tractor beam is barely holding it ::

Host COBradley says:
XO: what is that flashing in the nebula?

Dr_Snow says:
::sees that they are still asleep but color looks good::

ENG_Mav says:
@*Griffon*Do you see what I see?

Host Mark_AGM says:
ACTION: Nebula begins to swirl more and flashes increase

EngMadiso says:
@::scans sensors, tries to find best way out of the nebula::

Host COBradley says:
TAC: continue laying the mines.

ENG_Mav says:
@Oh crap! :: adds more power to shields and SIF ::

TacRightm says:
Capt.:aye sir

EngMadiso says:
@*ENG_Mav*  I say we get outta here!  If we can.

XO_Love says:
CO: The Flashes Are Anti- Neutrino Bursts..looks as though we have company..

ENG_Mav says:
@Madison: We wait for the orders. We're out of the nebula... We should be safe.

Host COBradley says:
*Mav*: how much maneuverability and speed do you have?

Host Mark_AGM says:
ACTION: Swirling and Flashing increase some more.

TacRightm says:
::uses the ships resources to lay nucleonic mines::

ENG_Mav says:
@*CO*Pretty good for both.

ENG_Mav says:
@*CO*We have the equivalent to 1/3 impulse power.

Host COBradley says:
FCO: disengage tractor beam.

TacRightm says:
Capt: I believe the laying of mines is having some kind of effect on the Nebula

FCOWalter says:
CO: Should I cut tractors?

FCOWalter says:
CO: Disengaging

ENG_Mav says:
@:: sees tractor beam break off, grins and stabilizes the ship ::

Host COBradley says:
*Mav*: head for the nearest Starbase.

ENG_Mav says:
@*CO*Aye, sir.

TacRightm says:
Capt: a dimensional Portal is forming off the port bow

Host COBradley says:
XO: can we counter the portal that is forming?

EngMadiso says:
@::monitors ship's systems::

ENG_Mav says:
@:: decides to name this ship... unofficial, obviously..... the Nautilus... ::

Dr_Snow says:
::sitting at computer studying about the life forms resting in sickbay::

EngMadiso says:
@::decides on the Vico::

XO_Love says:
CO: No Sir, my program can initialize a portal, not stop one..

Host Mark_AGM says:
ACTION: The Nebula is now a furious hurricane with almost constant flashes of light...

Host COBradley says:
XO: reverse it.  We need to close that portal.

XO_Love says:
CO: Aye Sir, but it will take some time..

TacRightm says:
::racks his brain to figure a way to counteract the forming portal::

FCOWalter says:
::mutters under his breath:: We don't have time

Host COBradley says:
TAC: continue with the mines.

XO_Love says:
::Modifying Program ..::

TacRightm says:
::laying mines::

ENG_Mav says:
@::turns the Nautilus and turns on the impulse engines..... VRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOMM! SWIISSSHHHHH! ::

TacRightm says:
Capt:an enormous alien ship is in the nebula!!!

Host Mark_AGM says:
ACTION:  All the mines in the Nebula detonate... simultaneously... obliterating the alien ship.

EngMadiso says:
@Mav:  Sir if the Griffon were to fire a neutrino pulse instead of an antineutrino, wouldn't that close it?

Host COBradley says:
TAC: what's its status?

Host COBradley says:
::sees the explosion::nevermind.

Host Mark_AGM says:
<HUGE ALIEN SHIP> *Griffon*  Greetings... We come in peace... We come from another dimension and we <<CUTOFF AS SHIP IS DESTROYED>>

FCOWalter says:
::ship rocks with the explosion, holds on to helm::

XO_Love says:
CO: Capt, i think i have it, we should run a simm to verify the program..

FCOWalter says:
::chuckles::

ENG_Mav says:
@:: hears the message over long-range Comm and sees.......... :: Oh god.... We're dead.

EngMadiso says:
@::transfers power to shields and life support::

TacRightm says:
::says to himself::oh no

Host Mark_AGM says:
ACTION: USS Artemis comes out of Warp near the Nebula to see the final explosion.

ENG_Mav says:
@Well, my log isn't going to talk about that... I didn't see nothin'.

Host Mark_AGM says:
PRIORITY COMM FROM ARTEMIS

ENG_Mav says:
@:: detects the Artemis :: Oh god........ Oh no....... Oh, man..... :: listens to Griffon COMM :: Oh, geez...

TacRightm says:
::opens responds to Comm::

Host COBradley says:
FCO: full stop.  Signal Maverick to stop too.

EngMadiso says:
@::gives more power to the deflectors::

FCOWalter says:
::stops:: CO: Aye, sir

TacRightm says:
::fells terrible at the loss of so many lives::

ENG_Mav says:
@:: gets an all-stop signal ::

Host COBradley says:
ART: Artemis.  This is Captain Bradley.  How may I help you?

Host Mark_AGM says:
<ARTEMIS> *Griffon* This is Captain Theodore Merain, of the USS Artemis.  Captain Bradley, I am hereby placing you and your crew under arrest for the destruction of an unknown alien vessel without provocation, please drop your shields and be prepared to relinquish command.

ENG_Mav says:
@:: turns off the engines.. shhhhhhhhhhhwooooooooooooohhhh.. ::
