XO_Love says:
CO: Sir, ? the news console..?

EnsMadiso says:
*Mav* Sir, impulse, transporter, computer, replicator, and phaser diagnostics are completed

Host COBradley says:
XO: Yes.  We should be able to reconfigure it.

ENG_Mav says:

ENG_Mav says:
*Madison*Very well. Do it.

XO_Love says:
::Accessing recent events in logs..::

TAC_James says:
Madison: I'll acompany you.

Host COBradley says:
ALL: everyone.  I will need you to remember exactly what it was that you were doing at the moment the large vessel appeared.

ENG_Mav says:

ENG_Mav says:
Ens. Paparazzi: Clean up that stain, will you? I know it's not your usual duty, but i'll put in a good word with your superior officer.

EnsMadiso says:
*Starbase*  Starbase, this is U.S.S. Griffon, can you use sensors to tell us what is at 0 degrees mark 0 of us?

Bradley: Sir, I can't see any way we could have known that an alien vessel that was following us was friendly

EnsMadiso says:
James:  Let's go to sensor control, I'll bet we can find what is wrong there.

TAC_James says:
Madison:Ok, let's do it

ENG_Mav says:
:: sits in the big chair again... isn't really ready for command. Nice, but not my style... although it aint to shabby ::

EnsMadiso says:
::goes to sensor control::

Host COBradley says:

Dr_Snow says:
::watching playback::

Host COBradley says:
XO: freeze on the attacking vessel.

FCOWalter says:
::seeing for the first time, since he joined in the middle::

EnsMadiso says:
James:  Ok, Let's start with a surface scan of the sensor refractor.

XO_Love says:
::Freezes frame..::

TAC_James says:
Madison: It seems odd that this gap has occured::

EnsMadiso says:
James:  Well we will be finding a lot of mistakes, as much action as this hip has seen

Host COBradley says:
::peers closely at the readout on the bottom of the screen::

TAC_James says:
Madison: You do that and I'll start a surfacescan on the sensor core

EnsMadiso says:
James:  Well look at that, we have a "smudge" on the sensor refractor.

XO_Love says:
CO: What is it Sir..?

Host COBradley says:
XO: why do we have a blank spot in the lifesign readings?::points::

TAC_James says:
Madison: What type of a smuge is it?

EnsMadiso says:
*Mav*  We have found a discrepancy on the sensor refractor, we are running the auto clean program now.

ENG_Mav says:
*Madison*Good. Continue.

XO_Love says:
::Checks Log ::  CO: Sir, it appears that it has been wiped from the log..

FCOWalter says:
::looks closely, over Love's shoulder::

TAC_Mizzi says:
::on the ship... heading to the bridge::

Host COBradley says:
XO: Do we have any back ups that could compensate for it?

EnsMadiso says:
*Mav*  Sir, the problem has disappeared.

XO_Love says:
CO: Yes we do, but if who ever did this, they might have gotten to it also.

ENG_Mav says:
*Madison*Disappeared? Did you fix it, or did it fix itself?

TAC_Mizzi says:
::in the Observation Lounge...  ::

TAC_James says:
*Mav* We have complete control of the sensors now

EnsMadiso says:
*Mav*  The program fixed it

XO_Love says:
::Checking backup logs..::

TAC_Mizzi says:
::staring out the window, absent-minded::

TAC_James says:
*mav* The auto-clean program worked very well

ENG_Mav says:
*Mizzi, Madison*Good enough for me. Finish up the diagnostics as soon as you can, gentlemen.

TAC_Mizzi says:
::wonders when all this will be ovre with::

FCOWalter says:
::watches as the sensor readouts change:: Sir, What just happened?

TAC_Mizzi says:
::thoughts turn to his wife::

Dr_Snow says:
::begins to pace as mind wanders again::

EnsMadiso says:
*Mav*  The diagnostics should be done in 4 hours.

TACRightm says:
::goes back to the tac councle and checks the progress of the shields diagnostic::

Host COBradley says:
XO: did we get the lifesign readings on the attacking vessel?

XO_Love says:
::Data being accessed, taking it's time..::

ENG_Mav says:
*Madison*4 hours?? God.....

XO_Love says:
CO: it is coming through now..

Host COBradley says:
::turns to Snow only to find her wandering off::

ENG_Mav says:
*Madison*Great. Report to your station if you're done down there.

Host COBradley says:
Snow:  Uh, Doctor?

TACRightm says:
Madison: I wonder how progress is coming with the senior staff, don't you?

ENG_Mav says:
*Rightmire*Same for you.

EnsMadiso says:
::goes to Engineering::

TAC_Mizzi says:
::leaves observation lounge and heads for a comm system::

Dr_Snow says:
::lost in thought:: Huh...Bradley: Sir?

CSO_JD says:
::looks at bridge personnel::

Host COBradley says:
Snow: Doctor, could you please come here and give us your opinion on these life readings?

TACRightm says:
Madison: I can feel quite a bit of emotion coming from them.

TAC_Mizzi says:
::at comm panel...  tries to use his command codes to open a commlink to the Scimitar where his wife is stationed....  codes were rejected::

XO_Love says:
::looks to Snow..::

Dr_Snow says:
Bradley: Yes sir ::walks back over a little embarassed for wandering off::

CSO_JD says:
::thinks about a phaser and then looks at sec guards::

TACRightm says:

XO_Love says:
Snow: Is there a problem..?

Host COBradley says:
Snow: Well?

Dr_Snow says:
::gets a puzzled look on her face:: Bradely: Sir, these lifesigns are alien but do not match those of the ones I treated in sickbay.

Host COBradley says:
::nods KNowingly::

ENG_Mav says:
Rightmire: Good.

TAC_Mizzi says:
::frustrated, Mizzi heads back to the observation lounge to find out what Bradley and Love may have uncovered::

Host COBradley says:
XO: proceed to the point where we first got readings on the huge ship.

Host Mark_AGM says:
<Wallen> *Bradley* Admiral Wallen to Captain Bradley.

Host COBradley says:
*Wallen*: Yes, Admiral.

TACRightm says:
*Mav* I'll finish up with the weaponary sensors and call it a day!

XO_Love says:
::Forwards to initial reading of Mothership..::

Host Mark_AGM says:
<W> *Bradley* Your escort will be arriving shortly to take you back to the Hearing Room.

Host COBradley says:
*Wallen*: Admiral, I respectfully request we reconviene on the Main Holodeck here on Griffon.

ENG_Mav says:
Rightmire: Well, you're shift isn't over for a while....

Host COBradley says:
XO: freeze image.

Host Mark_AGM says:
<W> *Bradley* We'll reconvene on the Starbase's Holodeck.  Wallen out.

FCOWalter says:
::thinks: we're running out of time!::

XO_Love says:
::Freezes Image..::

Dr_Snow says:
::looks at Love::

TAC_Mizzi says:
::ears perk up at the sound of the holodeck....  wonder what Bradley is playing at::

TACRightm says:
*Mav* At least for the Tactical sensors...so I'll help Madison

Host COBradley says:
XO: Compare those lifesigns against that of the attacker.

TACRightm says:
*Mav* With the remaining time

EnsMadiso says:
*Mav*  Sir, the waste disposal diagnostic is done.

ENG_Mav says:
Rightmire: Very well.

Host COBradley says:
XO: Quickly!

XO_Love says:
::Compareing lifesigns..::

TAC_Mizzi says:
Bradley:  They are the same.

Host COBradley says:

Host COBradley says:
XO: save this to a chip and let's transfer to the Starbase holodeck.

TAC_Mizzi says:
::frowns...   ::  Bradley :  But will the Admiral buy it?

Host COBradley says:
Mizzi: He'll have to.

Host Mark_AGM says:
<SOx2>  ::Rings chime again::

@Talbert: Just a second, Sir.  I have a few adjustments to make.

Host Mark_AGM says:
@ <T> Bradley: Very Well...

Host Mark_AGM says:
@ <Wallen> ::Looks perturbed::

@::makes the adjustments::

OPS_Lucas says:
::leaves holodeck::

TAC_Mizzi says:
@::decides that this wouldn't be the best time::

Host COBradley says:
@::the holodeck fills with the view of the Griffon under attack from the alien vessel.  The view is from the outside looking at the two ships::

TACRightm says:
*Mav* the diagnostics on all Tactical systems are done, Do I have permission to help Ens Madison with other systems?

Host Mark_AGM says:
@ <Talbert>  Bradley:  Captain?

ENG_Mav says:
Rightmire: Permission Granted.

TACRightm says:
Madison: Is there anything I can assist you in now that all Tactical are running at full?

Host COBradley says:
@::The view then shifts to the inside of the alien vessel::

EnsMadiso says:
Right:  Yes, you can finish up the warp diagnostic.

Dr_Snow says:

Host COBradley says:
@All: Gentlemen: what you are seeing is a representation by the computer of the aliens that attacked the Griffon.

Host COBradley says:
@::this information is extrapolated from various computer sensor readings and some information given to us by the aliens we recovered.

@ALL: I guess we will have to make do with the bare sensor records::makes a few adjustments::

FCOWalter says:
CO: Sir, may I suggest that we just show them the sensor data?

OPS_Lucas says:
::at OPS:: it appears the holoemitters blew...

Host COBradley says:
@::The view of the two ships comes back, but a view screen appears to the left of them::

TACRightm says:

Host COBradley says:
@:: the screen shows a split window with the life sign data of the two vessels side by side::

FCOWalter says:
@Wonders if the sensor evidence will be enough::

ENG_Mav says:
:: likes commanding the ship, although the urge to know what the devil is going on over on the starbase is eating my mind ::

@ <Gevek> Bradley:  They are the same....

Host Mark_AGM says:
@ <Talbert> ::Turns to Merain::  Merain:  Captain?

Host COBradley says:
@ALL: that is correct.  Although at the time we did not take sensor readings, the records are still present.

Host Mark_AGM says:
@ <Merain> Talbert: The Artemis wasn't in a position to run biologic scans, Sir.

Host COBradley says:
@::waiting for the panel to make a decision, smiling::

TAC_Mizzi says:
@::watches the conversation....  keeping to the rear of the group, being quiet::

FCOWalter says:
@::is confident about the decision::

Host Mark_AGM says:
@ <Wallen> ::Clears Throat::  All:  Well, in light of this evidence, all charges are dropped.  However... Captain Bradley, you are going to be placed under indefinite probation.

ENG_Mav says:
Lucas, Morris: I'm sorry there wasn't much action for you guys, with all this court martialling and starbase stuff... But hang in there. You'll get your share of action, once good ol' Captain Bradley has this seat back.

Host Mark_AGM says:
@ <Wallen>  All: Dismissed before I change my mind.

Host COBradley says:
@Wallen: Indefinite?

FCOWalter says:
