Host Gilles says:
Negotiations between the Koldaji and the Talarisi have yet to begin and a mystery in the asteroid belt has the crew's attention. 

Host Gilles says:
The crew has a few choices to make...

Host Gilles says:
<<<<<<<<<<<< Resume Mission >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
::Waiting in the Turbo Lift as it heads for the Bridge::

CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: On the bridge, running scans of the 'blind' area of space.::

CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
:: sits calmly in engineering ::

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
::sits at CTO 1::

TO_Ens_Volta says:
::Checks on the security details assigned to the "guests".::

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
::The Turbo Lift stops and the doors open. She steps out and looks around the Bridge:: CSO: Is there anything new to report, Lieutenant? ::She looks towards science as she walks to her area::

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
CO: Captain,  I was thinking that we should take the diplomats off ship on to a shuttle if we plan on going in the asteroid belt for security.

CSO_So`tsoh says:
::Looks up::  CO:  Nothing as of yet ma'am.  All we see are asteroids, but we are reading nothing.

TO_Ens_Volta says:
::Arrives at the guards in front of the Talarisi quarters and chats momentarily about their assignment thus far and observations/recommendations.::

TO_Ens_Volta says:
::Assures that they understand the procedures in place for the transport/transfer of the delegates for the conference.::

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
CTO: That would not be safe, Ensign. It is better to have them here.

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
CSO: We will head towards the blind spot once confirmation is granted by Starfleet. ::She takes a seat and looks towards her arm panels::

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
::turns to the Captain:: CO: There is movement in the asteroid field. I could take a shuttle and look at it closer.

CSO_So`tsoh says:
CO:  Aye captain.

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
CTO: What type of movement, Ensign?

TO_Ens_Volta says:
::Arrives at the Koldaji delegation quarters and speaks with the SF security detail assigned to them.::

CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: Turns back to her station, adding a filter to the incoming telemetry data.::

TO_Ens_Volta says:
::After assuring the security details are "ready" for the transfer/transport heads back to the bridge and gets in the nearest TL.::

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
CO: Mostly, it is just some asteroids. Still unknown maybe more then one.

CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: Slowly rotates the filter::

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
::Tries uses better sensor resolution::

CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
:: sets his feet up on his desk and relaxes ::Self:Finally all paper work so to speak is done. Nothing is behind...repairs are complete

TO_Ens_Volta says:
::While in the slow moving TL.:: *CTO*: Volta to Chief Ivanova.  Detail attaches are ready and prepared for venue change.

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
CTO: It is expected to have asteroids move in an asteroid belt, Ensign. ::She waits for any other reports... wanting to go but not without confirmation::

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
Thank you, Ensign Volta for some very efficient work.

CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: Listening, reviews the data.::  CO:  Captain, it is doubtful it is random.  Even asteroids have an orbit.  The trajectory here appears to be random.

TO_Ens_Volta says:
*CTO*: Aye I am enroute to the bridge.

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
CO: Captain, we could send the Aerowing to check it out. It does have some decent armaments on it in case of trouble.

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
CSO: Can you attain a better scan of the belt and determine what it is or do we need to move closer, Lieutenant?

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
CTO: We are not sending out an Away Team, Ensign. ::She looks towards Science::

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
CSO: Could a network of probes work?

CSO_So`tsoh says:
CO:  Closer may help.  However, I believe it is the minerals within that are causing our current problem with telemetry.  I would like to get my hands on some samples.

TO_Ens_Volta says:
::The TL the TO is in arrives on the bridge and the TO steps out surveying the situation for a few moments in the TL corner.::

CSO_So`tsoh says:
CTO:  At this point of time, no.

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
CSO: Could a tractor beam be of any use?

CSO_So`tsoh says:
CTO:  It is rather hard to tractor something you cannot get a secure lock on.  It is not beyond the realm of the impossible for a general lock if we wish to try for a few samples, but in that case, beaming would be better as we do not have to be so close.

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
CSO: Lieutenant, could you please hail the Sagarica? ::Hoping she does not mind taking over OPS for the moment::

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
CSO: Then maybe we should beam a sample aboard. CO: Captain want me to escort the diplomats to the transporter room?

CSO_So`tsoh says:
CO:  Hailing Sagarica now...  :: Taps a few commands in to the known hailing frequency.::

Host Gilles says:
ACTION: An explosion is detected originating from the USS Sagarica' warp nacelles.

CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
:: takes a sip of his coffee and looks around. Everything is running nice and smoothly ::

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
CTO: Standby, Ensign. ::She looks up:: COM: Sagarica: USS Sagarica this is the USS Hayden. Please come in.

Host Gilles says:
ACTION: The port nacelle on the Sagarica begins to leak plasma violently

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
::gets ready to lock on crew and attempts to beam them aboard;: CO: Attempting to beam crewmembers aboard.

TO_Ens_Volta says:
::Takes Tac 2 and logs in to the tactical sensors of the Sagarica.::

CSO_So`tsoh says:
CO:  Captain, I am picking up an explosion on the Sagarica.

CSO_So`tsoh says:
CO:  It is near the warp nacelles.  They are leaking plasma.

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
CO: I would recommend we beam them out attempting lock on.

CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: Resends the captains comm.::

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
::Her eyes widen a bit:: CSO: Are you able to determine the reason? ::She looks towards the CTO:: CTO: Lock onto the Delegates on the vessel.

TO_Ens_Volta says:
::Attempts to ascertain the reason for the explosion and subsequent plasma leak based on tactical parallels.::

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
::locking on to the delegates of the vessel::

CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: Scanning the area trying to determine the danger of the current situation.::

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
CO: Locking on ma'am.

Host Gilles says:
ACTION: The Sagarica explodes sending debris all over and the shock wave hits the Hayden

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
::hits console::

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
::Holds onto the armrests on her chair:: *ALL*: All hands brace for impact!

Host Gilles says:
ACTION: The Hayden is shaken violently from the shockwave.

TO_Ens_Volta says:
::Braces on the console as the shock waves hit.::

CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: Glance up surprised, turning automatically to the screen that is darkening automatically.::

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
::gets a look and takes a look at damage::

CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
:: sips his coffee walking around looking at the displays and nearly looses his footing and falls to the deck:: *Bridge*:What the heck is happening up there?

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
::Holds onto the arm-consoles on her chair as hard as possible but still manages to get flung from her chair onto the floor::

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
::raises to red alert::

TO_Ens_Volta says:
::Checks her console for ship status.::

CSO_So`tsoh says:
CO:  We have lost the Sagarica.  ::Looks at her captain::  Sorry ma'am.  At the moment, I cannot tell you why.

Host Gilles says:
ACTION: A hull breach on the engineering deck begins to cause depressurization in Main Engineering.

CSO_So`tsoh says:
*CEO*:  We have just lost the Sagarica.

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
CO: Captain hull breach in engineering.

CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
ALL :Evacuate Engineering NOW!!! MOVE!!!

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
::She pushes herself up and looks towards So'tosh:: *CEO*: Chief, what is going on down there? ::She looks a bit annoyed:: CSO: Lieutenant, continue your scans.

TO_Ens_Volta says:
::Sees the forcefields activate on internal sensors.::  CTO: Emergency Forcefields in place and holding.

CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: Hearing the CTO turns and manipulates environmental, adding pressure to engineering.::

CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
*CO*:I'll get back to you captain....Davidson out.

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
::checking weapons::

CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
:: does a quick check of personnel ::

Host Gilles says:
ACTION: One engineer is caught in the forcefield as it comes on. Half of him goes into outer space, the other remains in Engineering.

CSO_So`tsoh says:
*CEO*:  Jay, I have increased pressure, but it will put stress on environmental if held too long..

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
*CEO*: I ordered the report now, Chief, not later. ::She sighs and begins to pace a bit::

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
*CEO*: Jay, do we have liquid hull sealing?

CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
*CO*:We have one dead sir....others are injured....I need a medical team to Engineering.

CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: Reading the area currently stable, readjusts environmental.::

CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
*CSO*:Thank you sin....are you okay?

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
TO: Ensign Vorta, make sure the security around our guests is very tight. ::She looks towards the CTO:: CTO: Have medical teams report to Main Engineering, Ensign.

CSO_So`tsoh says:
*CEO*:  We are fine up here.  ::Quietly so only he can hear::  Best report to the captain, she is worried.

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
CO: Yes sir.

CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
:: walks towards the breech and looks at it and whistles ::

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
*MO*: We need a medical team to engineering.

TO_Ens_Volta says:
CO: Aye Captain. ::Nods to the CO and to the CTO and heads into the TL down to check on the delegates.::

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
<MO_Pearson> *CTO*: Understood sir.

CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
*CSO*:How are you sin?

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
CSO: Lieutenant, do what you have to in order to determine what caused the plasma leak. ::She sighs a bit as she compiles a message to Starfleet Command on her consoles::

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
<MO_Pearson> ::heads toward the turbolift:: Computer: Main engineering.

CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: Tilts her head curiously at Jay's question which she had already answered and turned toward her captain::  CO:  Understood.  I will need to get some samples of the ship as well as rerun through sensor data.

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
<MO_Pearson> ::turbolift arrives at main engineering and goes to engineering:: CEO: Where is the injured crewmember?

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
CSO: Do what you have to, Lieutenant. I will be speaking with our guests. ::She walks towards the Turbo Lift:: *TO*: Ensign, prepare our "guests" for my arrival.

CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
Ens Rock: You know we’re lucky we didn't loose more people.

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
CO: Weapons are fine but warp not possible do to structural damage.

CSO_So`tsoh says:
CO:  Understood.

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
::She enters the Turbo Lift and orders it to the proper deck. She leans against one of the walls, with her eyes closed. Why did this have to happen to her::

TO_Ens_Volta says:
*CO*: Together ma'am or separately?

CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: Scans the debris area, looking for certain pieces of the ship, those that would have been around engineering.::

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
<MO_Pearson> CEO: I would like for you to take me to the injured crewmembers.

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
::She reopens her eyes and taps her badge:: *TO*: Together is fine, Ensign.

CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
*CO*:Captain...I'm sorry. Warp is out of the question...Structural integrity is severely compromised. Impulse is all we got.

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
*CEO*: How long will it take to get warp back online, Chief?

CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
MO: The Injured are right in front of you Pearson. Do your job.

CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: Getting a lock, sends the coordinates to the transporter room.::

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
<MO_Pearson> ::starts working on the most critical::

CSO_So`tsoh says:
*SO Draya*:  I need you to go down to transporter room one and pick up the samples from the Sagarica.

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
CSO: I think we should begin looking at crew records of the Sagarica.

TO_Ens_Volta says:
::Hesitates for a moment.:: *CO*: Aye. ::Gives instructions for the 2 delegations to be escorted to the main conference room for an urgent meeting with the CO immediately and goes there to do quick security check and requests two more details be sent to assist in security there.::

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
::does a background check of personal reports on Sagarica crews.

CSO_So`tsoh says:
CTO:  The crew list should be located within Starfleet data.

CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: Pulls up Hayden sensor logs of the past 15 minutes and runs them through the computer::

TO_Ens_Volta says:
*CTO*: Volta to Ivanova.  The CO has requested that the 2 delegations meet in the main conference room immediately.  Is it possible to have another security detail available for outside duty?

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
CSO: I am also going to look at all security cam data. And security cameras from Sagarica recently.

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
::The Turbo Lift stops and the doors open. She walks towards the proper Quarters::

CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: Suddenly reaches over and stops the screen.  Absentmindedly...::  CTO:  I would double check our own ships.

CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
*CO*:I need to further check it...but I would say at least 8 hours at least. We have a large breech.

TO_Ens_Volta says:
::Satisfied for the moment at the set up of the conference room.::

CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: Hits the rewind button and then reruns it, at a much slower speed.::

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
::decides to look into Ens. Volta's record::

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
CSO: Could a fuselage explosion cause a the problem?

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
::Sighs as she hears the report:: *CEO*: Understood, Chief. Do what you can; I need warp back as soon as possible. I do not want the same thing to happen to us here.

TO_Ens_Volta says:
*CO*: Main Conference room is prepared for delegations.  Our escorts will bring them now.

CSO_So`tsoh says:
*CO*:  I may have your answer, but I still need to examine the samples.  Sensor logs picked up an impulse trail leading away from the Sagarica.  Its heading was toward the asteroid belt.

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
::She pauses and changes direction towards the Main Conference Room:: *TO*: Thank you, Ensign.

CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
*CO*:I can tell you I won't let that happen Captain. I promise you. ::lets a little anger come though his voice ::

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
*CEO*: That we can only hope, Chief. ::She continues to heard for the Conference Room::

CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: Asks Draya for a rush on those samples.::

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
CSO: There was a possible explosive on ship and a impulse trail.

CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
::sits in a heap in his chair::

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
CSO: The nacelle ma'am.

CSO_So`tsoh says:
CTO:  Definite to the later, checking on the former.

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
::She taps her Combadge:: *CSO*: Great work, Lieutenant. How old is this ion trail and can you determine whom it is from?

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
CSO: You can check for a quantum singularity could determine Romulan or exclude them.

TO_Ens_Volta says:
::Sends an order to the two details escorting the delegates that one of each detail member will be stationed outside the conference room and one of each inside on the respective sides.::

CSO_So`tsoh says:
::Glances at Susan and turns back to the comm::  *CO*:  Readings show it left shortly before the explosion... One moment ma'am, I am getting a report from the lab on the ships hull.

CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
*CSO*:Take it slow...with this hole in our belly I wouldn't want to go fast. No faster then 1/2 impulse.

CSO_So`tsoh says:
*CEO*:  I doubt anyone else would.  I'll inform the FCO.

TO_Ens_Volta says:
::Stands at the doorway of the Main conference room awaiting the CO and delegations to arrive.::

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
CSO:  We can use Aerowing.

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
::She reaches the Conference Room:: *CSO*: Understood, Lieutenant. ::She notices the TO and nods::

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
CSO: Might make the search go faster and minimize electronic equipment use and power outage for stealthing it.

TO_Ens_Volta says:
::Steps to the side as the CO enters.:: CO: Captain.  ::Nods.::

CSO_So`tsoh says:
::Passing the information to the FCO, reads through the report.::

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
*CO*: Captain I was wondering if I could stay in the conference room and observe?

CSO_So`tsoh says:
CTO:  You might scan the area of the trail.  However... you need not.  According to this, the signature is federation.

CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
::rubs the back of his neck ::ALL: Priority One is to get that breech sealed....we'll have to sit still while we do it. Get materials ready. *Bridge* Engineering to bridge

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
::She waits outside of the Conference Room:: TO: Ensign, have our delegates wait here until I return. They are not to leave without my order. Understood?

CSO_So`tsoh says:
*CO*:  Captain, I need a private moment.

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
*CO*: Captain there might be a renegade special ops thing going on.

TO_Ens_Volta says:
CO: Yes Captain.  ::A perplexed look on her face as the CO walks away.::

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
::She nods to herself:: *CSO*: Meet me in my Ready Room, Lieutenant. ::She nods to the TO and walks towards the Turbo Lift, ignoring the CTO's theory::

CSO_So`tsoh says:
CTO:  The ships engine was relatively small.  You might run that through the data base and narrow down the type of ship we are looking for.

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
CSO: Understood.

CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
 *Bridge* Engineering to Bridge

Host Pltr says:
::looks around:: All: What is happening? The ship is shaking... What is happening?

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
::running database on smallships:: CSO: Could this be a renegade operation?

TO_Ens_Volta says:
::Sees the first delegation rounding the corridor with there security detail.::

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
::Decides to check impulse trail against delta flyer::

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
::She waits as the Turbo Lift reaches the Bridge. Once it does she exits onto the Bridge:: CSO: Lieutenant. ::She walks towards the Ready Room::

CSO_So`tsoh says:
CTO:  I do not believe so.  But all things are possible at the moment.

CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
*CO*:Captain...Until I can get this breech sealed we have to sit still. I am sending a team out now to start work on it. 

CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: Follows her captain towards the ready room.::

TO_Ens_Volta says:
Pltr: Delegate Pltr, Captain Davis Patterson will brief you on the situation.  Please have a seat. ::Ushers him and his aide inside the conference room with one of the security details remaining at the door and the other remaining near them.::

Host Pltr says:
TO: I don't want to take a seat !  I want to know what is happening!

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
*CEO*: Understood, Chief. ::She enters the Ready Room:: CSO: What do you have, Lieutenant?

CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
::heads for the shuttle bay::

TO_Ens_Volta says:
Pltr: That is why you have been requested to come here to the conference room.

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
*CEO*: Do you know of any type of stealth shuttles with a federation signature like this?

Host Pltr says:
TO: Well explain it.... NOW !

CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
*CTO*:I don't have time to look right now ensign. Send it to my terminal and I will look later. Davidson out ::enters the Bay and gets in a work bee::

CTO_Ens_Ivanova says:
::sends it to his terminal. ::does a check on speed of trail::

TO_Ens_Volta says:
Pltr: Delegate Pltr.  The Captain of this vessel will be here soon to do precisely that.  Now please remain calm and patient.  May I get you anything from the replicator?

CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
@COM: Bridge:This is Work -Bee Alpha requesting permission to launch?

CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
@:: gets a wave of dizziness but shrugs it off::

CSO_So`tsoh says:
CO:  I did not want the delegates to hear.  The signature of the ship was federation.  We are not yet able to confirm the source of the weapon used, but the patterns on the pieces we have strongly suggest some kind of a bomb.

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
::Her eyes widen:: CSO: Federation? Who in the Federation would wish to stop these negotiations?

CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
@::gets clearance and exits the shuttle bay and heads for the location of the breech to begin repairs::

CSO_So`tsoh says:
CO:  I do not know.  But... given we were actually able to pick it up, meaning it was not very subtle, it leads one to think that we are being set up.

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
::Nods:: CSO: That is my thinking as well, Lieutenant. I would like to follow this trail however we do not have proper power. Launch a probe and have the ion trail mapped so we may follow it once repairs are complete.

Host Pltr says:
::ignores the TO and paces::

CSO_So`tsoh says:
CO:  It's trail led towards the asteroid belt.  I will set a probe on it just in case we can pick up more data.

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
CSO: Thank you, Lieutenant.

CSO_So`tsoh says:
::Nods and turns to leave.::

TO_Ens_Volta says:
::Accepts that Pltr is pacing on his side of the room and awaits to other delegation to arrive and the CO to return.::

CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
@*CO*Captain...this breech is going to be pretty simple to repair. 

CO_Capt_Davis-Patterson says:
::She exits onto the Bridge:: *CEO*: Good, Chief. Keep me informed.

Host Pltr says:
ACTION: The CEO sees a sparkle on the starboard warp nacelle of the Hayden.... after a closer sensor reading the CEO detects a bomb.

CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: Returning to her station, has science prepare a probe as engineering is probably busy.::  CTO:  Any luck on matching the vessel?

CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
*CO*:CAPTAIN!!!!
