Prologue: The Hayden is in route to SB 69. All systems are normal ETA to station 7 hours.
Host AGM_John says:
<<<<<<<<<<Resume mission>>>>>>>>>.
Host Coreena says:
::sitting in Sickbay, quietly reading::
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
:::in quarters, getting ready for duty:::
CTO_Bafii says:
:: in Torpedo control, looking over the latest repairs ::
CMO_McDonough says:
::Walks into sickbay at the start of her duty shift to find nurse abbot and Coreena::
CSO_Spear says:
::reviewing available data on artifacts::
CMO_McDonough says:
<Abbot>
FCO_Michaels says:
::heads onto the Bridge and takes over for the Ensign at the helm, checking the systems over::
CMO_McDonough says:
Coreena; Mornin' Lass.  How are ya this fine mornin'?
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
:::just got out of the sonic shower and is brushing her hair, getting ready to put it up on her head.::
Host XO_Cutter says:
::in the center chair, trying not to look bored::
Coreena says:
::looks up from her book::  CMO:  I am fine... though... I do feel... sleepy.
CMO_McDonough says:
::Picks up the padds on patients who came in during the night.....reading over them::
CTO_Bafii says:
:: happy with the report he received, heads for the TL ::
CSO_Spear says:
XO: I have the remaining artifacts in a level 5 containment field in cargo bay two. Permission to resume examining them?
FCO_Michaels says:
::finishes going over the status and reports to the XO::  XO:  Sir, on course for Starbase 69, ETA 7 hours at current speed.
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
::finishes getting ready and enters her office.  Checks her schedule for the day and her incoming messages.  hmmmm Ens. Davidson has cancelled his appt.  He's not feeling well apparently. ::
CTO_Bafii says:
TL: Bridge
Host XO_Cutter says:
CSO:  Feel free.  However, I ordered a Level 10 containment field.  Correct that, would you?
Host XO_Cutter says:
FCO:  Acknowledged
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
:;gets coffee from the replicator:::
CMO_McDonough says:
Coreena: Well it is good that ye are beginin' ta understand yourself a bit.  Why dunna ye tek a nap, luv?
CSO_Spear says:
::makes the correction:: XO they are now Sir
CTO_Bafii says:
:: arrives on the bridge ::
Host XO_Cutter says:
CSO:  Good.
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
::Since there are no patients for awhile, decides to go to the bridge::
Coreena says:
::looks at the doctor::  CMO:  Because.... well... I don't like to sleep.
CMO_McDonough says:
Coreena: Is there a reason ye dunna, luvy?
CTO_Bafii says:
:: heads over to Tactical ::
CNS_Longly-MacGregor ::exits office and enters TL:: Computer: Bridge please (TurboLift.wav)
CMO_McDonough says:
::Looks at a patient who wasn't seen by any of her doctors yet was given treatment and looks puzzled::
Coreena says:
::looks around the room::  CMO:  I always seem to wake up somewhere different from where I went to sleep.  And people ask me odd questions afterwards that I do not know the answer to.
CSO_Spear says:
CTO: will you keep an eye on SCI while I have another look at those artifacts?
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
::exits TL and enters bridge::
FCO_Michaels says:
::frowns at his console and taps a few commands::  XO: Sir, I've just registered a .01% drop in Warp Power.
Host AGM_John says:
Action: the containment field wavers
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
XO:  Good morning sir
Host XO_Cutter says:
FCO:  Cause?
CTO_Bafii says:
:: glares at Keifer, then smiles ::  CSO: Sure
Host XO_Cutter says:
::smiles::  CNS:  Good morning.
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
CTO/FCO/CSO  Good morning gentlemen
CTO_Bafii says:
:: notices a light on the console ::
CSO_Spear says:
XO: Hold on. The containment field is.............. wavering
FCO_Michaels says:
XO: Unknown sir, I'm trying to isolate the problem now.
CMO_McDonough says:
Coreena: Well. we'll have ta take a look inta that, luv.  ::walks over and leans against a biobed looking at the one chart......thinking::
CTO_Bafii says:
:: nods to the counselor as he investigates ::
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
::hears the CSO::
CTO_Bafii says:
XO: Yes, I am reading that too
CSO_Spear says:
CNS: Morning Ma'am
Host XO_Cutter says:
*EO*  LT, we show a drop in warp power and problems with the containment field.  What's going on?
CSO_Spear says:
::reinforces field::
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
::smiles at the CSO::
FCO_Michaels says:
::pulls up the warp core schematics and engineering displays on his auxiliary console and attempts to isolate the power drain::
CTO_Bafii says:
CSO: It stopped... odd
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
::nods to the FCO and CTO::
Coreena says:
::watches the doctor::  CMO:  Is something wrong?
CMO_McDonough says:
::Gets an odd idea and raises an eyebrow.......:: Coreena: How long hev ye been in here, before Ah came in, luv?
CSO_Spear says:
XO/CTO: I concur
Coreena says:
::shrugs shoulders::  CMO:  Since you left me.
CSO_Spear says:
::wonders if he Really wants to know more about the artifacts::
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
XO:  What's the problem with the containment field?
FCO_Michaels says:
::grumbles about engineers causing more problems than they fix::
EO_Lane says:
*XO*: We're working on it sir
Host XO_Cutter says:
CNS:  Do I look like a warp head?  Beats me.  ::waves his hand around the bridge::  These techno wizs are supposed to tell me.
CMO_McDonough says:
Coreena: Since yesterday. luv? Do ya remember a gentleman about this tall ::Motions to a height:: With brown  hair and blue eyes comin' in here during the night?
Host XO_Cutter says:
*EO*  Understood.  Keep me posted.
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
::laughs out loud::  XO:  Of course Jason
Coreena says:
CMO:  Yes... he was a bit grumpy.
CTO_Bafii says:
CSO: Those artifacts could do anything...  wait
EO_Lane says:
::checks the containment field parameters::
FCO_Michaels says:
XO: You mean..you actually need us?  ::sniffles and grins widely::
CTO_Bafii says:
XO: I'm showing a minor drop in power to both weapons and shields
CMO_McDonough says:
::laughs:: Coreena: Aye luv.  That would be him fer cartain!   Do you know who treated him?  I dunna see a doctors name on the orders.
Host XO_Cutter says:
::concerned now::  CTO/CSO:  Lock this down.  Where's the power going?
Host XO_Cutter says:
FCO:  Don't let it go to your head.  ::grins::
CTO_Bafii says:
:: attempts to isolate the power drain ::
EO_Lane says:
::moves the warp core console to verify her readings::
FCO_Michaels says:
::laughs and turns back to solving the problem at hand::
Coreena says:
CMO:  Treated him?  I don't know.  I did help him though.  I wasn't much and there was no one around.
CSO_Spear says:
CTO/XO: I think I'll confine my research to passive scanning only. I don't want any of those things going off. ::begins trace of power fluctuations::
CTO_Bafii says:
XO: It’s a very small drop, hard to track down
Host XO_Cutter says:
*EO Lane* We show another drop.  Can you track it down?
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
XO:  Suggestion sir, maybe the artifacts themselves are draining the power.  After all we don't know much about them
CSO_Spear says:
CTO: I'm trying to trace it now..............
Host AGM_John says:
Action: the containment field wavers again
CMO_McDonough says:
Coreena: You helped him, luv?  How so? ::setting down the padd leaning her arms on the biobed::
EO_Lane says:
EO_Hills: I think there is some sort of glitch in the containment power conduits.
Host XO_Cutter says:
CTO:  Hmmm.... excuses Bafii?  How bout answers?
Host XO_Cutter says:
CNS:  Could be.
Host XO_Cutter says:
CSO:  Is the CNS correct?  Is this tied to the artifacts?
Coreena says:
::looks at the doctor confused::  CMO:  What do you mean?  I just... helped him.  He left much happier then when he came in.
CTO_Bafii says:
XO: No excuses - just facts...  I'm still working on it
CSO_Spear says:
:;attempts to reinforce confinement field again::
FCO_Michaels says:
::growls at his console::  XO: Sir, the warp power's just dropped another .04%, down .05 now.
CMO_McDonough says:
Coreena: What did ya do fer him, Lass?  What made him happier?
Host XO_Cutter says:
FCO:  Acknowledged
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
XO:  Perhaps a more in depth scan of the artifacts is called for.  Should be something we can find out from incorporating the information with our database.
CTO_Bafii says:
:: traces the power flow through the emitter EPS conduit system ::
EO_Lane says:
::tries to verify the power loss::
Coreena says:
CMO:  I wrote it down on his chart... just like you and the others do.  ::frowns in thought::  Mostly he had a headache and a light stomach ache...
FCO_Michaels says:
::narrows his search for the power drain and continues running scans on the warp core from his console::
Host XO_Cutter says:
CNS:  The only problem is we don't know what triggers those artifacts.  Our tractor beam blew up a ship.
CSO_Spear says:
::overhears:: CNS: I would recommend only passive scanning..........any power source could set them off.
EO_Hills says:
::is rushing into ME, she had overslept::   Lane:  Report!  Sorry I'm late
EO_Lane says:
*EO_Hills*: You are needed here Lt.
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
XO:  Acknowledged.  I did hear that it was caused by the tractor beam.  Perhaps we could isolate the beam property that set it off
EO_Hills says:
Lane:  I'm here
EO_Lane says:
EO_Hills: We seem to have a problem in the power conduits.
CTO_Bafii says:
XO: I can't account for the power drop in the EPS system.  Everything looks normal
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
CSO:  Yes that is probably true.  If you could isolate the factor of the tractor beam that precipitated the explosion it would help
EO_Hills says:
Lane:  What sort of problems?
EO_Lane says:
EO_Hills: We are losing power in all systems.
Host XO_Cutter says:
CTO:  Understood.
Host XO_Cutter says:
FCO:  How long can we maintain warp at the present rate of power loss?
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
CSO:  I do understand that could take some time however
CMO_McDonough says:
::Picks up the chart.  Looks over the tricorder readings and checks the diagnosis and meds.....it's right on.  Well diagnosed and well prescribed.  Walks over to Coreena and kneels down so she's on eye level with her:: Coreena: No one wus here, luv?
EO_Hills says:
Lane:  How fast is the power drain?
FCO_Michaels says:
XO: At this point, we haven't really lost any performance, but if it continues to decrease, we'll have to lower our speed.
CTO_Bafii says:
CSO/XO: If we were sure this was being caused by the artifacts, I may suggest a dampening field.. but that might not be the problem
CSO_Spear says:
::scratches head:: CNS/XO The tractor beam has both gravity and anti-gravity components
Host XO_Cutter says:
FCO:  ETA to SB 69?
EO_Lane says:
EO_Hills: I'll try boosting the levels again. It's a slow but steady drain.
CTO_Bafii says:
CNS/CSO: Yea, but the tractor beam set off one artifact - we have NO idea what will trigger the rest
Coreena says:
CMO:  Nope... a nurse came in, but she did not stay long... she was helping someone... elsewhere.  She did not say much.
CSO_Spear says:
CTO: A dampening field could have the opposite of the desired effect.............
CTO_Bafii says:
CNS/CSO: All we know is that the tractor beam shouldn't set off the rest
FCO_Michaels says:
XO: 6.5 hours to Starbase 69.  I estimate we'll have to come to all stop in about 10 hours if we keep losing power.
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
CTO:  Yes I agree with that but with the data from the explosion perhaps it can be determined if it was gravity or anti-gravity
EO_Lane says:
::moves back the warp console to check the readings::
CTO_Bafii says:
All: Power drain increasing -still no source visible
Host XO_Cutter says:
FCO:  Increase speed to warp 8
CMO_McDonough says:
Coreena:  Ahhh.....how did you learn how to tell what is wrong with a person?  How to diagnose?
FCO_Michaels says:
XO: Better make that under 10 hours...the rate at which we're losing power is increasing as well.
FCO_Michaels says:
XO: Aye sir, increasing to warp 8.  ::engages the course correction::
Host XO_Cutter says:
FCO:  What is our ETA now?
EO_Lane says:
EO_Hills: The power drain is increasing and at a faster rate now.
CSO_Spear says:
CNS/CTO/XO: I've reviewed all available data extensively. Results are still inconclusive.
Coreena says:
::eyes become slightly unfocused for a moment::  CMO:  I don't know... I ... just did.  Did I do wrong?  ::looks worried, not wanting the doctor angry with her::
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
CSO:  Understood
Host AGM_John says:
Action: as the warp speed is increased the power loose jumps dramatically
EO_Hills says:
::is running a diagnostic to see how fast the power drain is occurring::    Lane:  Understood
CTO_Bafii says:
CTO: Whoa... power loses just jumped 
Host XO_Cutter says:
FCO:  All stop
EO_Lane says:
EO_Hill: Shall I contact the bridge ma'am?
CTO_Bafii says:
<CTO == ALL>
FCO_Michaels says:
XO: Aye sir.  All stop.
FCO_Michaels says:
XO: We've got a degradation of 3% in warp core power sir.
Host XO_Cutter says:
CTO:  Power loss rate now?
CMO_McDonough says:
::Puts her hand on Coreena's leg:: No, luvy! Ye didna do anythin' wrong.  It was perfect how you helped him.  Ah'm not angry. ::Smiles:: Ah just dinna know if you should be helpin' paple like that.  Ah'm not sure the XO would like it luv.
EO_Hills says:
::notices the power drain is down by 3%::   Lane:  Please
CSO_Spear says:
XO: I believe the artifacts themselves may be the cause. Permission to examine them more directly?
Host XO_Cutter says:
CSO:  Try this...  put the artifacts into a shuttle.  Remotely pilot the shuttle to the limit of our scanning range.  THEN we'll try scanning them.
CTO_Bafii says:
XO:  Stable - but still at the heightened rate
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
XO:  Excellent suggestion
CTO_Bafii says:
XO: Agreed
CSO_Spear says:
XO: The confinement field is losing power .05 % faster than the rest of ship systems
Coreena says:
CMO:  Why not?  People are not as easy to fix as... objects, but it is not that hard... as long as I don't really think about it that is.  When I do think about it... it kind of... ::tries to find the right words::  ... it kind of... well, it is there, but it is not.  Does that make sense?
CSO_Spear says:
XO: will do
Host XO_Cutter says:
*EO*  Secure power to all secondary systems.  Save all power for primary systems.
EO_Lane says:
::waits for the EO to respond::
Host XO_Cutter says:
CSO:  Kiefer, make it quick
CSO_Spear says:
*Shuttle bay* Prepare for a shuttle on autopilot
CSO_Spear says:
<Shuttle bay> Acknowledged
Host XO_Cutter says:
*EO*  Acknowledge.  Reroute power from secondary systems to primary systems.
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
XO:  They should be physically placed into the shuttle if they have been somehow activated.  You don't know what the transporter waves will do either.
EO_Lane says:
*XO*: Aye sir, reducing power to all non-essential areas.
CSO_Spear says:
::erects level 10 confinement field around shuttle bay::
Host XO_Cutter says:
CNS:  Good point.
CMO_McDonough says:
::Nods slightly:: Coreena: Aye Lass.  Ah believe Ah understand.  It's not that ye arena doin' a good job!  Ye did a wonderful job.  Ah'll tell ya what.  Ye kin watch me treat paple t'day and Ah'll write the XO a note askin' ef ye kin treat paple when bein' supervised.  What do ya think ov that, luv?
Host AGM_John says:
Action: lights dim on the lower decks as power is conserved
Host XO_Cutter says:
CSO:  No transporter beams.  Manually move the artifacts.
CSO_Spear says:
XO: Understood
EO_Lane says:
::re reroutes all power to primary systems::
Coreena says:
CMO:  Does that mean I don't have to read any more of these books?  ::waves her hand at a pile ranging from etiquette to one on practical jokes::
Host XO_Cutter says:
CTO:  When we scan these things, I want full power to the shields.
CSO_Spear says:
::assigns detail to move the artifacts::
FCO_Michaels says:
XO: Shuttle bay reports the Venture is standing by awaiting cargo.
CTO_Bafii says:
XO: Already working on it sir
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
XO:  I agree wholeheartedly with that
CTO_Bafii says:
XO: Also plan on having a torpedo locked on - just in case
Host XO_Cutter says:
FCO:  Acknowledged
EO_Lane says:
*XO*: You have full power for shields and tractor beams if needed, but it won't last long.
FCO_Michaels says:
XO: 8% power drain sir.
Host XO_Cutter says:
CTO:  Alright Bafii, but don't fire until I order it.
EO_Hills says:
Lane:  Report
CMO_McDonough says:
::Laughs:: Coreena: Well.........ye dinna have ta read any of them, luv.  But they will help ye understand us two-legged ones more.  If ye'd prefer, why dunna ye ask me some questions for now and not read the books for a bit?  Why dunna we go into my office?  ::Stands.....stretches her legs a bit::
CTO_Bafii says:
XO:  :: smiles :: Now would I do that sir.
Host XO_Cutter says:
CSO:  Report.  Is the shuttle loaded and ready?
CSO_Spear says:
*<Wright>* Bridge: we have the shuttle ready.
Host XO_Cutter says:
FCO:  Acknowledged
CSO_Spear says:
XO: Ready for launch
EO_Lane says:
EO_Hills: All non-essential systems have been shut down. All remaining power to the primary systems.
Host XO_Cutter says:
CSO:  Good.... Launch shuttle
Host AGM_John says:
Action: as the shuttle powers up its power is drained
CTO_Bafii says:
*EO* Lets reroute power from all non-essential systems to the shields for the duration of the scan
Coreena says:
::jumps down and follows the doctor::  CMO: That is what Bafii said... but ::shrugs::  he did give them to me ::follows her into the office::
CSO_Spear says:
XO: were losing power on the shuttle
EO_Hills says:
Lane:  Good thinking, we need to conserve power somehow
Coreena says:
CMO:  And a lot of them seem really... I don't know.  They don't make any sense.
CSO_Spear says:
XO: We can't launch at this time. It seems to be exerting a dampening field of some kind
CMO_McDonough says:
::Laughs and takes a seat at her desk:: Coreena: Ye kin sit in one of those chairs luv.  How dunna they make sense?  Ask me questions about them?
Host AGM_John says:
Action: one small peanut sized artifact glows red for a moment
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
XO:  I'm beginning to wonder if we are even going to be able to transport the artifacts to the SB or if it's worth the safety of the ship to try.
CTO_Bafii says:
XO: Perhaps we can launch the artifacts off the ship in a probe 
FCO_Michaels says:
XO:  That was a fully powered shuttlecraft sir, enough power to last several days without docking.  I'm reading almost zero power from the Venture's core.
Host XO_Cutter says:
CSO:  Okay, try this.  Let's lock on with the transporter and energize, but keep the artifacts in limbo.
Coreena says:
::sits down, tucking her legs under her::  CMO:  What is this thing called... dating?
EO_Lane says:
*XO*: Suggest creating a vacuum in the cargo bay to get those things out of there.
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
XO:  What an excellent suggestion, neither here nor there.  It might work!
Coreena says:
CMO:  There seems to be many strange... rituals to it.
Host XO_Cutter says:
*EO*  Stand by Lane.
CTO_Bafii says:
XO: That takes a lot of power sir - if the artifacts are feeding off our power grid that will give them a direct connection
EO_Lane says:
*XO*: Standing by sir.
Host XO_Cutter says:
CTO:  Not if they're just disassociated atoms in the pattern buffer.
CSO_Spear says:
XO: If you say so. I'm picked up a blip on my passive scans. The artifacts are increasing their energy output
CMO_McDonough says:
::Laughs:: Coreena: Aye........there are.....both many and strange......Datin' is when a man and a woman are attracted to each other.....they spend time together.
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
:::hears the CTO::
CTO_Bafii says:
XO: If we can get them that far
FCO_Michaels says:
Self: I'm all for tossing the bloomin things out an airlock.
CSO_Spear says:
XO: Shall I go ahead and beam them into oblivion?
Host XO_Cutter says:
CSO:  Lock on with the transporter and energize
CTO_Bafii says:
XO: I'm worried that they will leech onto the transporter containment field - not allowing it to fully form... that will let them siphon energy and us not to initiate transport
Coreena says:
CMO:  How do they become attracted to each other?  And when they are, why do they want to spend time together?  If the attraction goes away, do they go away too?
EO_Lane says:
::works on the power grid::
Host XO_Cutter says:
CSO:  Don't beam them anywhere.  Just keep them in the pattern buffer.
CSO_Spear says:
XO: Aye Sir::gets a lock on the artifacts::
Host XO_Cutter says:
CTO:  ;:shrugs::  You may be right Bafii... we'll know in a minute.
CTO_Bafii says:
:: prepares to closely monitor power loss ::
EO_Hills says:
::has a sudden craving for some gagh, she thinks to herself "not now little ones, Mommy is in a bit of a crisis"::
FCO_Michaels says:
::frowns at the CNS, thinking in her direction, "You'd best have overheard that by sound waves and not a scan of my head"::
CTO_Bafii says:
XO: Aye sir...  remind me not to play poker with you
EO_Lane says:
::overhears the XO on the open channel::
CSO_Spear says:
::beams the artifacts into the pattern buffer, taking time to erect a containment field around it also::
Host AGM_John says:
Action: transporter systems are drained of power
CMO_McDonough says:
Coreena: Nay, lass.  Well...you can become attracted to someone in many different ways.  Maybe you like a look about him or the way he smells or maybe just his personality.  Lots of different reasons.
CTO_Bafii says:
XO: Power loss at 17%
Host XO_Cutter says:
CTO:  Acknowledged.
CTO_Bafii says:
XO: Sir, lets just put the artifacts in a probe housing and get them off the ship
EO_Lane says:
*XO*:Sir the transporters are affected by the artifacts. Do not use them sir.
Host AGM_John says:
Action: peanut glows again
FCO_Michaels says:
XO: If we don't figure out something rather soon, we're not going to be taking these artifacts anywhere.
CSO_Spear says:
XO: Unable to beam them into the pattern buffer Sir
Coreena says:
::frowns, trying to make sense of the words::  CMO:  You mean if I like the smell of a man, I could become attracted to him?  Umm... how does one know the smell?
CSO_Spear says:
XO: and I'm getting that power increase again
Host XO_Cutter says:
CTO:  Make preparations to do so, but I'd like to use that as a last resort.
EO_Hills says:
::sees the power loss at 17%::  EO_Lane:  We need to find some way to stabilize the power drain, any suggestions?
CMO_McDonough says:
Coreena:  Well. luv.....different people like different smells....What even a person likes is what may attract them to someone else.
CTO_Bafii says:
:: has an crewman prepare a probe housing ::  XO: Aye sir, standing by in the shuttle bay
FCO_Michaels says:
XO: Rate of power loss still increasing sir, 20% now.
CTO_Bafii says:
XO: Power loss at 20% - yellow alert sir?
Host XO_Cutter says:
FCO:  Contact Starfleet and inform them of our situation.  Tell them in my opinion, we have to jettison the artifacts.
EO_Lane says:
EO_Hills: Ma'am, we need to get those artifacts off of the ship. Something in their makeup in affecting all systems.
Host XO_Cutter says:
CTO:  Yes
Coreena says:
CMO:  But how does one know?  There are many different smells, and people... well, they sort of look alike, but there are so many of them.  How would you know which one is right?
CTO_Bafii says:
:: sounds yellow alert ::
CTO_Bafii (Yellow Alert.wav)
CTO_Bafii says:
XO: 25%
Host XO_Cutter says:
CTO:  Load the artifacts in the probe, prepare to launch
Coreena says:
::looks up at the alert::  CMO:  Trouble?
FCO_Michaels says:
XO: Aye sir.  ::sends message to starfleet explaining their situation::
Host AGM_John says:
Action: yellow alert sounds rather sickly
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
XO:  Apparently these things have been dormant for sometime.  Perhaps they have a built-in self-destruct if tampered with
CTO_Bafii says:
:: has crewman load the artifacts ::
CSO_Spear says:
Bridge: I'm with Michaels on this one, get rid of them no matter what
EO_Hills says:
Self:  25%  What is causing this power drain ::turns to Lane::  Lane:  Agreed
CMO_McDonough says:
::hears the Klaxons:: Coreena: Aye, luv.......
Host XO_Cutter says:
*EO*  Reroute remaining power to the probe launcher, shields and phasers
CTO_Bafii says:
XO: Shuttle bay reports ready sir... artifacts are in the probe housing.
Host XO_Cutter says:
CTO:  Launch the probe
CSO_Spear says:
::monitors::
CMO_McDonough says:
::Hits her combadge:: *CNS*: What's goin' on up there, ma'am?
Coreena says:
CMO:  You want me to do anything?
CTO_Bafii says:
:: opens the shuttle bay doors and decompresses ::
Coreena says:
:;quietly waits for the doctor::
EO_Lane says:
*XO*: Aye sir. All power to the probe launcher, shields and phasers.
FCO_Michaels says:
XO: Power drain now at 25%.
CMO_McDonough says:
::Stands.:: Coreena: Well, there is nothin' ye kin do at the moment.
Host AGM_John says:
Action: Tactical systems are lost
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
*CMO*  We're having a spot of trouble with the artifacts we picked up.  I think the XO has it under control for the moment
CTO_Bafii says:
XO: My systems are down 
Host XO_Cutter says:
FCO:  Move us away from the probe at best possible speed
EO_Lane says:
::re routes the power to the launching grid::
Coreena says:
::sighs, looking down at her hands::
CMO_McDonough says:
*CNS*: Thank you.....
CSO_Spear says:
XO/CTO: Power to the artifacts is increasing inversely proportional to the rate of power loss to the ships systems
CMO_McDonough says:
::Contemplates for a moment and then looks over to Coreena:: Coreena: What's wrong, luvy?
Host XO_Cutter says:
*EO*  Tactical is down.  Reroute power from tactical to Engines
CTO_Bafii says:
:: moves to mission 1 ::
EO_Lane says:
*XO*: Sir insufficient power available.
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
XO:  Perhaps we should come to an all stop and shut off all power but life support until we can solve this.
FCO_Michaels says:
XO: Sir, I don't register the probe as having been jettisoned.  Power is now down to 32%.
Coreena says:
::shrugs her shoulders despondently::  CMO: I am never needed anymore... I am not really even wanted.  I am just a problem.
CTO_Bafii says:
XO: Shuttle Bay doors didn't open
Host XO_Cutter says:
CTO:  Manually override
CSO_Spear says:
XO: At this point I suggest we manually eject them from the ship
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
XO:  If it's feeding on our power then we won't give it any to feed off of.
CSO_Spear says:
CNS: excellent idea
CTO_Bafii says:
XO: Its no good.  We are going to have to EVA them out of the ship
EO_Lane says:
EO_Hills: We need to get power to the launch doors.
Host XO_Cutter says:
CTO:  Make it happen
CMO_McDonough says:
Coreena; Nay luv.  Ye are a help.  ::Lifts her chin to for Coreena to look her in the eye:: Ye arena a problem......Ye hev helped me more than ye kin understand already.
CTO_Bafii says:
:: heads for the TL :: XO: I'll be in the shuttlebay then sir
FCO_Michaels says:
XO: Power loss now at 40% sir, this is becoming critical.
CTO_Bafii says:
TL: Main Shuttle Bay
Host XO_Cutter says:
FCO:  ::looks at him sarcastically::  You think?
EO_Hills says:
EO_Lane:  have you rerouted all non essential power to the doors?
CSO_Spear says:
XO/CNS/FCO/CTO : I believe the councilor is right. We need to Cut power.
Coreena says:
::gives a sad smile, trying to think of the right thing that Emily Post says everyone should know...::  Thank you.
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
::looks sideways at the XO::
Host XO_Cutter says:
CSO:  We are at all stop now.
CTO_Bafii says:
:: arrives at the shuttle bay and begins suiting up for EVA ::
EO_Lane says:
EO_Hills: I've tried that without much luck ma'am.
Host XO_Cutter says:
*EO*  Secure all power with the exception of life support.
CMO_McDonough says:
::Laughs:: Well, it's true, lass.  Ah wouldna say it otherwise.
CSO_Spear says:
XO: Maybe we could cut everything but life support
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
XO:  Shut off all power except life support until we can get them out of here.
CTO_Bafii says:
:: enters shuttle bay and activates mag boots ::
FCO_Michaels says:
XO: 45% sir.
Host XO_Cutter says:
FCO:  Acknowledged
EO_Lane says:
*XO*: Aye sir. All systems going to shutdown. Life support to minimum.
CTO_Bafii says:
*XO* I am preparing to open the maintenance hatch in Shuttle Bay
EO_Hills says:
Lane:  Great  ::hears the XO::  Do what he says it just may work
Host XO_Cutter says:
*CTO*  Acknowledged
EO_Lane says:
::begins shutting down all ship's systems::
Coreena says:
::tries to hold back a yawn::  CMO:  It is just that I want... ::sighs::  Never mind.  I know I can't have it.
CTO_Bafii says:
:: manually opens maintenance hatch ::
EO_Hills says:
::helps Lane with shutting down all ship's power::
CMO_McDonough says:
Coreena: Well.....ye never know unless ye ask.  What do ye want, luv?
EO_Lane says:
::re checks each system to be sure they are offline::
CSO_Spear says:
:: keeps working in the dim light::
CTO_Bafii says:
:: having opened the hatch the shuttle bay begins to decompress ::
FCO_Michaels says:
XO: Power loss is continuing, but seems to be starting to level off...now 50% of full power.
Coreena says:
CMO:  What I told you before... I want things as they were.   I want to be myself again... I want my form again.
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
XO:  If we reverse the ships polarity I think we could give the artifacts just the opposite of what they are looking for.  Do you concur?
CTO_Bafii says:
:: starts to move the probe of artifacts closer to the hatch ::
Host XO_Cutter says:
FCO:  Let me know if the loss stops
CMO_McDonough says:
::Looks around seeing the lights have dimmed considerably......and wonders exactly what's going on.
Host AGM_John says:
Action: as Bafii touches the artifacts all power is drained from his suit
FCO_Michaels says:
XO: Gladly sir!
EO_Lane says:
EO_Hills: All systems are shut down ma'am, with the exception of life support.
CTO_Bafii says:
::grabs onto hatch and pushes probe out ::
CMO_McDonough says:
Coreena: But ye'd miss so much about bein' a two legged one if he did.
CTO_Bafii says:
*Bridge* EVA suit lost power - trying to get rid of probe 
EO_Hills says:
EO_Lane:  Acknowledged, now let's pray the power drain stabilizes then we can figure out where to go from there
CTO_Bafii says:
:: pushes probe out of hatch and seals hatch ::
FCO_Michaels says:
XO: I read the probe as being outside the vessel sir.
Host XO_Cutter says:
FCO:  Can you get any power to the thrusters?
Coreena says:
::looks down at her foot::  CMO: I do like being able to go anywhere I want to... though the captain said I can't go back on the starbase for awhile ::sighs::
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
XO/CSO:  I believe the database will show that we can reverse the polarity of our ships energy core and it will stop the drain.  It certainly is worth a try.
CTO_Bafii says:
:: repressurizes shuttle bay ::
FCO_Michaels says:
XO: I'll try sir, but we're still losing power.  *Engineering* All available power to thrusters.
CSO_Spear says:
XO/CNS Agreed
Host AGM_John says:
action: Bafii passes out
Host XO_Cutter says:
CNS:  We can try
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
*CMO*  Lt. Bafii may need to be treated for oxygen deprivation
EO_Hills says:
Lane: Get the power to thrusters
CMO_McDonough says:
Coreena: Well ye need ta expect that.
Host XO_Cutter says:
*CMO* Medical emergency in the shuttle bay
CMO_McDonough says:
::stands quickly:: Coreena: Ye may be able ta help me in a moment. luv.
CSO_Spear says:
XO: We've lost contact with our CTO, should I try to beam him back?
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
XO:  We need to get the CTO back on board ship...need to power the transporter before reversal
EO_Hills says:
*FCO*:  Working on it
CMO_McDonough says:
*XO*: Should Ah go to the shuttle bay or will he be transported here?
Coreena says:
CMO:  yea but... ::stands up and follows the doctor out the door::
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
*CMO*  Hold tight to the SB...directly there
Host XO_Cutter says:
*CMO*  Transporters are down.  Go to the shuttle bay
CMO_McDonough says:
::Running around sick bay getting her med kit and making sure she has some tri-ox as well::
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
*CMO*  Sorry
FCO_Michaels says:
*Engineering*: We need it yesterday Lt.
EO_Lane says:
::boosts power to thrusters::
CMO_McDonough says:
*XO*: Aye.......Ah'm on my way........
Host XO_Cutter says:
FCO:  Can you get us moving?
EO_Hills says:
Lane:  Do we have it?
CMO_McDonough says:
Coreena: Stay behiind me, luv, but ye kin come.
CMO_McDonough says:
::Runs to the TL:: TL: Shuttle bay.
Coreena says:
::grins and follows behind the doctor::
FCO_Michaels says:
::registers the increase in power and activates thrusters::  XO: Aye sir, all ahead full.
EO_Lane says:
EO_Hills: I believe we can give it a try ma'am.

EO_Hills says:
*FCO*:   Got it!  Do it!
FCO_Michaels says:
*Eng* One step ahead of ya, you guys really are miracle workers.
Host XO_Cutter says:
FCO:  Move us away from the probe at best possible speed.  Let me know what the power drain does as we move away.
FCO_Michaels says:
XO: Aye sir!
CMO_McDonough says:
::Curses and runs for the nearest ladder::
EO_Lane says:
::tries to maintain thruster power::
EO_Hills says:
*FCO*:   We try  ::smiles::
Coreena says:
::swiftly follows behind::
CMO_McDonough says:
::Slides down the ladder and down until she reached deck 10::
CTO_Bafii says:
:: dreams of crystal clear water surrounding him ::
FCO_Michaels says:
XO: Power drain is decreasing as our distance from the probes increases sir.  Maintaining best possible speed.
CMO_McDonough says:
::runs to the SB opening her med kit on the way::
CTO_Bafii says:
:: tries to surface for air, but the water has become ice ::
FCO_Michaels says:
XO: Power loss appears to be stabilizing....58% and holding sir!
CSO_Spear says:
XO: If we get away from the dang things we might want to try detonating them at some point. Just as a precaution.
Host XO_Cutter says:
FCO:  As soon as you can get impulse, go to full impulse.
Coreena says:
::stops at the doors as they do not open either::
CMO_McDonough says:
::tuggs the shuttle bay door open.....::Coreena: Help me, luv.
Host XO_Cutter says:
CSO:  I agree.... as soon as I have power for a phaser.
CTO_Bafii says:
:: can't surface - pounds on the ice, looking for a way up to the air ::
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
CSO:  I would sure hate to see another ship get stuck out here and not know why.  ::looks wryly at the CSO::
FCO_Michaels says:
XO: Wishful thinking sir, we haven't regained any power yet, just stopped the drain.
CMO_McDonough says:
Coreena: When we get inside, help me get his helmet off quickly.
EO_Lane says:
::notices some residual power in the warp conduits and tries to send it to the impulse engines::
Coreena says:
::looks at the doctor, then goes to one of the panels and pulls it off.  Then begins to manipulate a few things::
EO_Hills says:
Lane:  Boy that was too close for comfort, I am relieved that the drain stabilized
CSO_Spear says:
::nods grimly at the CNS::
CTO_Bafii says:
:: the ice is thick and Bafii can't break it ::
Coreena says:
::As the door opens, she slips through it and heads over to Bafii::
CMO_McDonough says:
::Gets the door open and runs inside to Bafii::
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
XO:  Rather than destroy the artifacts we could establish a warning buoy and retrieve them at another time
Host XO_Cutter says:
FCO:  Power status?
CMO_McDonough says:
::Hands Coreena her tricorder:: Here, luv...you know how to use this.
Coreena says:
::looks at the stuff on him and frowns::  CMO:  What is covering him?
CMO_McDonough says:
::Takes off his helmet and injects him with tri-ox::
Host XO_Cutter says:
CNS:  I'm open to that.  Would you care to push out the beacon by hand?
Coreena says:
::takes the tricorder and runs it unthinkingly over Bafii::
FCO_Michaels says:
XO: Holding at 42% sir.
CMO_McDonough says:
Coreena; It's an enviro-suit, luv.
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
XO:  ::laughs at the XO:: I think not sir, not at this time
CMO_McDonough says:
Bafii: Lt. Wake up.....It's Christine.
Coreena says:
CMO: The clear stuff falling off of him ::monitors his condition::
CTO_Bafii says:
:: starts to sink in the water ::
CMO_McDonough says:
::looks at his O2 levels and injects him with another dose of tri-ox::
Host XO_Cutter says:
CSO:  Prepare a marker buoy and launch as soon as we have enough power.
Coreena says:
::heads over to one of the cabinets, opening it, takes out some blankets, then comes back with them::
CMO_McDonough says:
Bafii: Come one Lt......wake up.......
CTO_Bafii says:
:: hears the ice crack and feels as if being pulled up out of the water ::
CSO_Spear says:
::prepares buoy::
CMO_McDonough says:
::watches for respirations on the tricorder:: Coreena: Thank ye luv....lay those over him.
EO_Lane says:
*FCO*: Check the impulse engines. I believe I can give you enough power to move us away from the probe.
Host XO_Cutter says:
*CMO*  Report.
CMO_McDonough says:
Bafii: Lt?
CTO_Bafii says:
:: wakes and sees Christine and Coreena ::
Coreena says:
::covers the CTO up, trying to get his body temperature back up::
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
XO:  Well another ordinary mission that wasn't.  That's why I always loved Star Fleet.  ::smiles::
CSO_Spear says:
XO: I have it ready for launch as soon as we have enough power
CTO_Bafii says:
:: weakly :: Hi there angels
CMO_McDonough says:
*XO*: He's severely O2 depleted, but he seems to be coming out of it, Sir.
FCO_Michaels says:
XO: Sir we seem to be regaining power slowly.  I've got enough power for impulse now, and you should have the power for a buoy launch.
EO_Hills says:
EO_Lane:  Let's get going on repairs
Coreena says:
::sees his eyes open::  CTO: Hello Baffi.
FCO_Michaels says:
*Engineering* Roger, thanks for the boost.
CMO_McDonough says:
::Beams a large smile:: CTO: Ye gave me a fright, there, luv.
CNS_Longly-MacGregor says:
::hears the report on the CTO and is thankful there is no permanent damage::
Host XO_Cutter says:
FCO:  Acknowledged.   CSO launch the buoy and FCO get us the heck out of here.
CSO_Spear says:
::launches buoy::XO: Done Sir
EO_Lane says:
::takes the power from life support and send it to the launch bay::
FCO_Michaels says:
XO: With pleasure sir!  ::engages for Starbase 69 at full impulse::
