<<<Resume Mission>>>
Host CO_Skye says:
CIV/CSO: I want to know the moment you find the Doctor's probe.......
CSO_Lys says:
::going over reports at his station on the bridge::
CMO_Bishop says:
::exits the TL onto the bridge and heads to her station, her eyes intent on the screen as she brings up the schematics on the probe::
Host CO_Skye says:
::Eases herself back into her seat slowly contemplating the situation.::
Host XO_Jokeg says:
::can't for the life of him figure out why the other ships computers are locked out:: Even my tricks are not working!
Host CO_Skye says:
XO: Need a new back of tricks?
CSO_Lys says:
::sees the doctor enter the bridge::  CMO: Jerlia, I'm going to need your help.
Host XO_Jokeg says:
CO: I must....Captain, I need to get over to that survey ship.
Host CO_Skye says:
XO: Probably....but not quite yet.  Can you tell who can get into the computers over there?
CMO_Bishop says:
:;taps at the computer console and begins scanning for anything that has Ultra Low Frequency Waves:: Self: Come on... I know you're hiding there somewhere
Host CO_Skye says:
XO: Who are the computers locked out too.
AFCO_Flight says:
::listens to the Captain closely but doesn't say a word::
Host XO_Jokeg says:
CO: I cannot tell, the command codes have been changed, the maintenance access pathways are blocked. You have to know Federation systems inside and out to know those pathways exist.
CIV_Madison says:
::translates some of the probes specifications into search parameters and tries again::
CMO_Bishop says:
::looks at the CIV:: CIV: Anything yet Ms. Madison?
CSO_Lys says:
::figures Jerlia must really be intent on that missing probe.  Tries to make sense of the information on his own::
CIV_Madison says:
::shakes her head::  CMO: No ma'am, I'm having difficulty locating something that small, and low in power consumption.
CMO_Bishop says:
::is suddenly aware that someone spoke to her:: CSO: Huh? Did you say something Commander?
Host CO_Skye says:
::Leaves her seat and heads to an auxiliary station and tries punching up a scan of the nearest ship for movement.::
CMO_Bishop says:
CIV: Tell me about it...:: looks at her screen:: It's like trying to find a needle in an entire hayfield... let alone the haystack
AFCO_Flight says:
::watches the helm readings closely noting their distance from the planet::
CSO_Lys says:
CMO: Sure did.  We need to figure out what killed all these people.  You are the medical doctor.
Host XO_Jokeg says:
CO: Wait....I'm in.
Host CO_Skye says:
XO: Excellent.  ::Heads over and looks over his shoulder.:: What do you have?
AFCO_Flight says:
CO: Captain, approaching the planet.
Host CO_Skye says:
AFCO: Keep our distance.....I don't want to get too close just yet.
Host XO_Jokeg says:
CO: It's been totally re-written. I don't know this code.
Host CO_Skye says:
XO: Rewritten, how?
AFCO_Flight says:
CO: Aye ma'am, will maintain current position.
CIV_Madison says:
::applies a low-pass filter to the search, hoping to reduce noise from all the high-frequency equipment on the Hayden::
Host XO_Jokeg says:
CO: I don't know. I have never seen this code.
AFCO_Flight says:
::slows the Hayden and holds at a little less than .5 light years from the planet::
CMO_Bishop says:
::sits back and watches while the computer does it's scan of the interior of the ship:: CSO: I'm glad you reminded me of that Commander... ::winks at him as she approaches his station::... what kind of information we have so far?
Host CO_Skye says:
XO: Anyway, to upload our computer system to a removable unit and then re-upload it over there?
Host XO_Jokeg says:
CO: Sir?
Host XO_Jokeg says:
CO: Oh I see, yes it's possible.
Host XO_Jokeg says:
CO: Of course whatever is in that computer could simply re-write what we install.
Host CO_Skye says:
XO: Not if we wipe the computer's clean....
CSO_Lys says:
CMO: Here is a summary of the data scans of the ships and the planet.
CSO_Lys says:
::brings up the information for Jerlia to see::
Host XO_Jokeg says:
::contemplates:: CO: We can go over in EVA suits, in case we cannot restore computer control and we lose all systems.
CMO_Bishop says:
::nods and wrinkles her brow:: CSO: Curious....
Host CO_Skye says:
XO: You could....Think you could do a clean erase of the computers and upload our files?
AFCO_Flight says:
::turns slightly to the left and glances back at the XO and then turns back to her work smiling::
CMO_Bishop says:
CSO: So what's your take on it?
Host XO_Jokeg says:
CO: Aye sir, I think I can manage that.
CIV_Madison says:
::her vision begins to blur as she stares at the search screen, finding nothing::
CSO_Lys says:
::flipping through a few individual records as they talk, cringing from time to time:: CMO: Well, it looks as if there was a war of some type.  These bodies look massacred.
CSO_Lys says:
::brings up an image of a figure so mangled that at first it isn't recognizable as humanoid::
CMO_Bishop says:
::quickly brings her hand to her mouth as if to urge::
CSO_Lys says:
::has to turn away for a moment::
CSO_Lys says:
::changes the image::
CMO_Bishop says:
CSO: Can you get me anything on that figure? Are we close enough to bring it aboard so I can see what happened?
CSO_Lys says:
CMO: We are still 12 hours out Jerlia, it will be a while before we can get better information.
AFCO_Flight says:
CO: Captain, shall I move us in closer then ma'am?
CMO_Bishop says:
::shakes her head:: CSO: Oh... yes of course... sorry... I'm still worried about my microprobe...
CIV_Madison says:
::shakes her head and looks back at the last few seconds worth of scans before continuing::
CSO_Lys says:
::closes the file for a minute::  CMO: Well, let's see what Ms. Madison has found.  ::turns:: CIV: Sarah, any progress?
CMO_Bishop says:
CSO: I can't believe it... I've never seen anything so.... ::shudders::... it's like they're mangled.... torn apart... who would do such a thing?
CSO_Lys says:
::doesn't mention that he has... in his nightmares::
CIV_Madison says:
::starts at the address::  CSO: Oh uh, well no sir.  I can't seem to find it anywhere.  There's too much interference, and too big an area to search.
CSO_Lys says:
::considers for a moment::
Host CO_Skye says:
FCO: Go ahead and take us in at warp 9......slow to warp when we enter the system.
CTO_Lenard says:
:: stops his half-hour-long daydream and begins to press buttons ::
AFCO_Flight says:
::nods to the Captain:: CO: Yes Captain, warp 9. :;taps the warp controls to warp 9::
Host Klordy (Warp.wav)
CMO_Bishop says:
CSO/CIV: Well it doesn't make sense to me why this thing can't be found... I mean it operates on Ultra Low Frequency... can't you set the scanners to find something with that kind of emission?
CSO_Lys says:
CIV: Get tactical to loan you some bodies and start a deck by deck search with tricorders. Use a spiral search pattern out from sickbay.
CIV_Madison says:
CMO: Of course we can ma'am ::sounding a bit indignant::  but we also have to filter out nearly every active bioelectronic and electronic device on the ship.  The low frequency is completely masked by all the high frequency interference.
CSO_Lys says:
::nods::  CMO: Needle in the haystack Jerlia.  Internal sensors really aren't set to find anything that small and the emissions are probably on the micro scale.
CIV_Madison says:
::nods to the CSO::  CSO: Aye sir.  ::gets up and walks over to tactical::
Host CO_Skye says:
CSO: Why don't we evacuate decks 4-6  and turn off all power and life support to those areas......would it be easier to spot that way?
CMO_Bishop says:
::sighs:: CSO/CIV: Well, just do it... one of those things nearly tore apart one of my patients from the inside out.... ::pauses and looks at the CSO as she says those words... looks to the CSO's screen again to what he just showed her::....
CSO_Lys says:
::wonders is Sarah is really ready for bridge duty... he'll have to keep an eye on her::
CIV_Madison says:
::looks the CTO up and down before starting in::  CTO: Um..sir?  We..er that is, Commander Lys and I need..uh want ...request rather, some security personnel to help us with a deck by deck search for the uh...the missing medical probe.
CTO_Lenard says:
CIV : That would be appropriate
CSO_Lys says:
CO: Even then Captain, there is still power running through the decks to reach the decks above.  A manual search is probably our best bet at the moment aside from completely shutting down the ship and using an external scanning source.
AFCO_Flight says:
::drums her fingers on the edge of the console as she watches their course on the instruments::
Host CO_Skye says:
CSO: Very well then.
CIV_Madison says:
::sighs with relief, not aware she was so tense::  CTO: Thank you sir.  ::heads back to the CSO::
CTO_Lenard says:
CSO : Excuse me, sir?
CIV_Madison says:
CSO: We have permission to send some security personnel out with tricorders sir.
CSO_Lys says:
::turns back to Jerlia::  CMO: And perhaps I should get you and I should have a cup of tea?
CSO_Lys says:
::turns around at the CTO and CIV's approach::
CSO_Lys says:
::nods to Sarah then looks at to the CTO::  CTO: Yes?
CIV_Madison says:
::looks with surprise to find the CTO followed her over and begins to get nervous::
CTO_Lenard says:
CSO : I was told you needed protection.
CSO_Lys says:
CTO: Excuse me?
CMO_Bishop says:
::closes her eyes realizing her patience is thinning, she lays a hand on the CSO's arm:: CSO: I'm sorry, Talan... it's just a little nerve wracking to see one of your patients being torn up and not being able to do much about it...
CTO_Lenard says:
CSO : In your search for the renegade probe, sir. Madison informed me you required an escort.
AFCO_Flight says:
::wiggles her feet inside her boots, wishing she could take them off::
CSO_Lys says:
CTO: No Ensign.  ::thinks for a moment and relates their needs in terms the Tactical minded man might better understand::  We need search parties to find the rogue probe.
CIV_Madison says:
::looks shocked and then understands the misunderstanding and turns red::
CTO_Lenard says:
CSO : Oh... I see. I'm sorry it was not explained to me more clearly. :: shoots a glare at Madison ::
Host CO_Skye says:
::Retakes her seat and slaves the auxiliary panel to her chair and watches the new information as it pours in.::
CIV_Madison says:
::turns a brighter shade of red, halfway between embarrassment and anger and sputters::  CSO: Sir I...
CTO_Lenard says:
CSO : You have my department at your disposal.
CSO_Lys says:
CTO: Perhaps, ensign.  Or perhaps the proper questions were not asked.  In any case you now understand.  Cadet Madison will coordinate.  Please give her all the support she needs.  ::nods to Sarah and returns to his station::
Host CO_Skye says:
CMO: Jerlia, take a look at this....::Indicates the information and internal scans coming in.::
CSO_Lys says:
::maybe she just needs some confidence... I know I did when I started::
CIV_Madison says:
::looks helpless as if she's just been assigned to be clerical assistant to an evil Ambassador::
CMO_Bishop says:
::looks up at the CO and heads to sit next to her:: CO: What is it? ::peers down at the arm console::
AFCO_Flight says:
::begins to wiggle in her seat for some unknown reason but trying not to let it interfere with her work::
CSO_Lys says:
::sits down and begins reviewing the scans of the planet again, looking for more pieces to the puzzle::
CTO_Lenard says:
CIV : Have you isolated any particular areas where the probe would be, or shall we be taking a full tour of the ship?
Host CO_Skye says:
CMO: Look at these internal scans....It's like they were in a phaser fight onboard, but only SF personnel are wounded......
CIV_Madison says:
::turns to the CTO and says in a small voice::  CTO: Um...I have the scan parameters here.  ::holds out a PADD::  We don't really know where it would be...it could be anywhere.
CMO_Bishop says:
::wrinkles her brow:: CO: Well that doesn't make sense... what would attack them like that?
CTO_Lenard says:
CIV : What are the probe's dimensions and capabilities?
Host CO_Skye says:
CMO: And not even get wounded.....
AFCO_Flight says:
::her feet suddenly start moving to an unheard beat::
Host CO_Skye says:
FCO: Is something the matter?
CSO_Lys says:
::wonders if the CTO will be too strong of a personality for Sarah to work with... well, it will be an ordeal by fire then.  It will either give her a chance to show she has what it takes or she'll get completely steam rolled::
AFCO_Flight says:
::turns suddenly at the Captain's voice:: CO: Um, no ma'am. Everything is fine.
Host CO_Skye says:
FCO: Glad to hear it.....or more to the point, not to hear it.
CTO_Lenard says:
:: hopes they're not expecting him to locate some kind of nano-probe ::
AFCO_Flight says:
::feels her cheeks flush and is embarrassed now::
Host CO_Skye says:
CMO: What do you make of it, Jerlia?
CIV_Madison says:
::thinks to herself, it's not a weapon!::  CTO: Um well...it's roughly 2 by 2 microns.  And it's uh, capable of repairing cellular structures?
CTO_Lenard says:
:: has his hopes dashed ::
CMO_Bishop says:
::shakes her head:: CO: Well I could guess... but I would like to see them for myself and do the proper analysis
Host CO_Skye says:
CMO: When we're close enough, we'll see what we can do.
CTO_Lenard says:
CIV : So it's settled itself right into an area where the computer cannot locate it, correct?
CSO_Lys says:
:: wonders if he really was prepared for this whole mentoring thing... hopes that he isn't doing the cadet a disservice::
Host CO_Skye says:
CMO: Any observations between now and then would be appreciated.  I'd like to know what we're dealing with before I send people over.
CIV_Madison says:
::nods::  CTO: Which could be anywhere...or inside anything.  But tricorders should have a better chance at locating it, they're more localized.  ::hands the CTO a tricorder::  This one has the modified scan parameters loaded already.
CMO_Bishop says:
CO: I would like to volunteer for the away team, Sam.
CTO_Lenard says:
:: accepts the tricorder :: CIV : Very good.
Host CO_Skye says:
CMO: I never doubted that for a second....... You'll be on it when the time comes.
AFCO_Flight says:
::listens to the bridge conversation not really understanding what is happening but knows that the humor is gone from the crew now::
CIV_Madison says:
::sighs audibly, relieved that things didn't go any worse::
CSO_Lys says:
::starts preparing a report on his scan findings::
CIV_Madison says:
CTO: Oh...and uh, it's self-propelled and self-powered...I forgot to mention that.
CTO_Lenard says:
CIV : The most logical search pattern would be to start in Sickbay and move outward. We'll meet a team there, and each head up a group, then go in opposite directions in a deck-by-deck search.
CMO_Bishop says:
::smiles and nods:: CO: You'd think at a glance that these people were of a kind of species with self healing powers or something... but even if that were true... if they were dead.. they'd show some kind of wounds
CTO_Lenard says:
:: heads for the turbo lift, hitting commbadge in stride ::
CIV_Madison says:
Self: Well ok then, yeah that sounds good...you do that......yeah Sarah you handled that one beautifully, really showed him.  ::sits down with her head in her hands::
Host CO_Skye says:
::Nods:: CMO: There's a mystery.....Let's hope we can solve it.
AFCO_Flight says:
::again her feet begin to move to a silent tune::
CTO_Lenard says:
All: Will the following personnel report to Sickbay immediately... Misters Heidenreich, Dinsmore, Conway, and T'Lor.
CTO_Lenard says:
:: turns around in the turbo lift, notices the current posture of Madison :: Comp : Hold lift...
Host Klordy says:
Action: the Hayden’s power system hiccups again for a second
CTO_Lenard says:
:: steps back and storms over to where Madison is sitting :: CIV : Cadet?
CSO_Lys says:
::looks up as the lights flicker::
Host CO_Skye says:
::Looks around and then back at Lys:: CSO: Lys?
CMO_Bishop says:
::looks around and blinks as the systems hiccup:: CO: I hope that isn't the doing of my little microprobe...
AFCO_Flight says:
:;jumps at the power level fluctuation::
CIV_Madison says:
::looks up quickly and gets a deer-in-headlights look::  CTO: Yes sir?
CTO_Lenard says:
:: shoots a hand to his phaser when the lights go out, but retracts quickly ::
CSO_Lys says:
::looks at the CO with the "what?  I'm not an engineer" look::
CIV_Madison says:
::blinks at the disturbance::
AFCO_Flight says:
::checks her engine status immediately and is relieved that they weren't affected::
CSO_Lys says:
::checks internal scans::
CTO_Lenard says:
CIV : I won't pretend to be the ship's counselor, but you have no reason to be acting in this manner. As they say on your world... "Buck up."
CTO_Lenard says:
:: walks away ::
CSO_Lys says:
::looks back to the CO and shakes his head::
CIV_Madison says:
::opens her mouth and lets it hang there as he walks away...eventually closing it, utterly defeated without ever putting up a defense::
CIV_Madison says:
::sits down heavily in her seat and stares menacingly at the search results::
Host CO_Skye says:
CMO: Let's hope that isn't your probe.....Any way to deactivate that thing from sickbay?
CTO_Lenard says:
<Mr. Dinsmore> *CTO* : Hey Chief... this is Dinsmore.
CSO_Lys says:
::turns around and sees the CTO head off and Sarah slump in her chair... considers and decides on an approach:: CIV: Cadet Madison?  Why are you still here?  I believe I put you in charge of the search teams?
CTO_Lenard says:
*Dinsmore* : Yes?
CMO_Bishop says:
CO: I wish.. I couldn't do it when it nearly killed Lt. Burt....
CTO_Lenard says:
<Dinsmore> *CTO* : I'm not sick, sir. Why am I going to Sickbay?
Host CO_Skye says:
CMO: So there are no safety's built into those things?
CIV_Madison says:
::looks up at Commander Lys looking utterly hopeless::  CSO: Well, yes sir, I know, but well...I told Ens. Lenard what was required, and he...just took off to do it.  I really didn't know what else I could do.
CTO_Lenard says:
:: shakes his head and ignores ::
CMO_Bishop says:
CO: Yes, there are... but the damn little devil wouldn't respond... we tried everything until we finally had to beam it out of him... they probably shouldn't have been activated in the first place, but I needed them for my procedure..... ::sighs and runs her fingers through her hair::
AFCO_Flight says:
::looks at the readings and suddenly sees musical notes on the screen:: Self: What the.......? ::looks around quickly then covers the panel slightly so no one else sees it::
CTO_Lenard says:
:: lets the turbo lift doors close before letting out a shout :: DAMN IT!!!
CSO_Lys says:
::eases his posture a bit and lowers his voice so no one else can hear::  CIV: Sarah, I put you in command... go take command.  I wouldn't have given you the job if I didn't know you could do it.  
Host CO_Skye says:
CMO: You beamed it out of him to where?
CIV_Madison says:
::gulps and looks at him as if asking are you REALLY sure?::  CSO: Ok.  ::meekly::
CSO_Lys says:
::watches the CIV go and wonders if he is doing the right thing::
Host Klordy says:
