XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
::In her office reviewing some of the reports, preparing for disembarking with the Away Team.::
FCO_Mades says:
::on the bridge at the helm::
OPS_Verradi says:
::Sitting at his station, sullenly doing various work-related things::
CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: Eyeing her appearance in the mirror, looks carefully.  There was a touch of the exotic to her nativer heritage, but nothing out of the ordinary.::
CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: Grabs her bag, swinging it over her shoulders, she heads out and to the nearest turbolift.  Steps in..::  Computer, bridge.
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
::Looks at the ship's chronometer and decides to find out the ETA of the CSO.::
FCO_Mades says:
::stifles a yawn as he checks the latest flight systems reports::
SO_Knight says:
::Pops another apple slice in his mouth and puts on his old, ruffled gray fedora::
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
*CSO*: Lt, what is your location?
OPS_Verradi says:
::Mutters various things under his breath about Vulcans.::
CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: Pauses as the lift stops, with a glance around the bridge she enters and heads toward her station.::  *XO*:  I am on the bridge ma'am.
FCO_Mades says:
::looks around the bridge, wondering where the Captain was::
SO_Knight says:
::The turbolift opens up on the Bridge and he strides onto it, tugging at the front of his brim::
FCO_Mades says:
::sees the science department arrive on the bridge and can't help but stare at their "interesting" garb::
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
*CSO*: Come to my office with your report Lt.
CSO_So`tsoh says:
*XO*: On my way...
CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: Altering he direction, heads for the first officers office.::
FCO_Mades says:
::can't help but chuckle a bit as he turns back around::
SO_Knight says:
::Straightens the black leather jacket  and keeps it open, shoing off the gray shirt and bluejeans::
OPS_Verradi says:

CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: Walks into the room and stands before her desk.::
SO_Knight says:
::Takes out his disguised tricorder which resembled an old late19th Century pocketwatch::
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
CSO: Please sit down Lt.
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
::Sits.::
Host Rich says:
Action: A light on OPS console flashes indicating a power drain of some kind on Deck 5 Section 6.
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
CSO: What is your plan of action for Science down on the planet?
OPS_Verradi says:
::Raises his eyebrows:: Self: What's this?! A power drain of some kind on deck 5 section 6?!
OPS_Verradi says:
::Decides it best not to leave the bridge because then just Mades would be there. That punk. So instead he contacts one of his associates:: *Hockenbocker*: Get down to deck 5 section 6. There is a power drain of some kind.
SO_Knight says:
::Stands over the science console and checks the simplified controls to his disguised tricorder for functionality::
CSO_So`tsoh says:
XO:  Research.  Our goal is to discover the exact time we arrive in and extropolate when Bates arrives and try to be there when he does.
OPS_Verradi says:
<Hockenbocker> *OPS*: Y-yes sir. ::Nervously grabs his toolkit and heads down to deck five::
FCO_Mades says:
::stretches at his station, planetary orbit one of the most thrilling of an FCO's duty::
FCO_Mades says:
<duties>
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
CSO: Good Lt. Are you ready to do the brief to the AT and other Senior Officers with me?
CSO_So`tsoh says:
XO:  Yes Commander.
SO_Knight says:
::Pops another apple slice into his mouth and continues to test the tricorder::
FCO_Mades says:
::smells something.. looks around trying to find the source::
OPS_Verradi says:
<Hockenbocker> ::Checks a suspicious-looking panel. It takes him a while to open it, but when he finally does... he screams:: All: AAAHHHH! Spiders!
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
CSO: Very well.  Briefing Room in 5 minutes.
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
*Senior Officers/Away Team Members*:  Report to the Briefing room immediately.
Host Rich says:
Action: Power in the Warp core suddenly drops 10%
FCO_Mades says:
::checks OPS, and not finding the source there, moves on to Engineering.. no.. swivels and looks at Science.::  Self: Ah, the suspect
SO_Knight says:
::Turns to Verradi's direction and walks over to the OPS console, still chewing on crunchy apple::
OPS_Verradi says:
<Hockenbocker> ::Practically faints, but wills himself not to:: *OPS*: Sir--it's sp-sp-sp-spiders! ::Faints now::
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
::Stands up from her Desk takes a few PADDs and exits her office securing it as she leaves.::
CSO_So`tsoh says:
XO:  Yes commander...  ::With a nod, heads for the bridge.::
OPS_Verradi says:
FCO: What are you doing?
FCO_Mades says:
OPS: Just checking to see who's got the apple and isn't sharing.  ::smiles::
OPS_Verradi says:
::Sighs as Hockenbocker says something about spiders:: *Security*: Security to deck 5. And bring some anti-arachnid agent. And a medical team.
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
::Heads for the Briefing Room.::
FCO_Mades says:
::locks down his station and starts to head to the briefing room::
SO_Knight says:
::Looks around for the spiders and overhears the FCO. He holds out his hand and offers him a slice::
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
::Rides a TL up to the Briefing Room and takes her seat with the stack of PADDs in front of her.::
OPS_Verradi says:
SO: Yes, Mr. Knight?
FCO_Mades says:
::grabs a slice:: SO: Thanks man.  ::pops the apple slice into his mouth as he exits the bridge for the briefing room::
CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: As she arrives at the bridge, she pauses briefly, then head toward Othello.::
OPS_Verradi says:
::Stands up and heads to the briefing room::
OPS_Verradi says:
SO: You'd better hurry, then. ::Shakes his head and leaves the bridge::
CSO_So`tsoh says:
SO: Ensign, are you ready?
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
::Nods to each person as they enter the Briefing Room.::'
OPS_Verradi says:
::Appears in the briefing room not long after he leaves the bridge::
FCO_Mades says:
::takes a seat at the table and finishes munching his apple slice and nods to the XO::
CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
::enters the briefing room with a PADD in hand going over the warp core readings::
OPS_Verradi says:
::Takes a seat, nodding to no one::
SO_Knight says:
::Eats another apple slice:: CSO: It's Lt. ma'am.
CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
XO:Commander...I still haven't found out the problem with the core...it dropped suddenly and then steady.
SO_Knight says:
::Sits down and removes his old family heirloom::
FCO_Mades says:
::looks around the room, still curious as to the whereabouts of the good Captain::
CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: Takes a seat next to Mades.::
CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
::sits down beside Othello::SO:Mornin Mate..::sips on his coffee::
SO_Knight says:
::Smiles at his old friend:: CEO: Apple, chum? ::holds out apple slices::
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
All: We will begin this briefing now.
CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
SO:No thanks...don't do breakfast...::turns his attention to the XO::
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
::Waits for everyone to stop what they are doing and concentrate on the conversation.::
Host Rich says:
Action: The warp core power drops another 5%.
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
::Passes the PADDs out to those assembled.::
OPS_Verradi says:
::Is quite focused on the conversation. This is so pointless. They will all fail.::
FCO_Mades says:
::leans back slightly in his chair and swivles to face the XO::
CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
<EO Brody>*CEO*:Sir...we have a problem down here...
CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
XO:Commander...excuse me...::taps his comm badge::*EO*:What is it?
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
All: As was stated in this shifts briefing earlier an Away Team is assembling to go to the planet.  We will depart after this briefing.  I want to go over a few things first however.
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
::Nods to the CEO as he steps to the corner to answer the call.::
SO_Knight says:
::Offers the FCO another slice and munches another::
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
OPS: Lt Verradi, is there a way to send data back to the Hayden from where the Away Team is via signal or a way to keep a communication line open?
FCO_Mades says:
::nabs a slice::
CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
<EO Brody>*CEO*:The core just dropped another 5%...that's a total of 15% in the last 30 minuets...You better get down here.
OPS_Verradi says:
::Stonily:: XO: Not as far as I'm aware. We'll attempt to maintain various types of links, but it's extremely unlikely that any will work.
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
OPS: Lt, continue to investigate any and all avenues.  I am confident you will find something even if it is after the Away Team has departed.
CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
*EO*:On my way...::walks back to the table::XO:Excuse me commander...We have a problem in engineering that needs my attention. Permission to go to engineering.
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
::Turns to the CEO.:: CEO: Report, Ensign.
OPS_Verradi says:
::Gives the barest of nods to prevent the XO from rebuking him or something::
CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
XO:I am not sure why but it seems the core has lost 15% of its power in the last 30 minuets...
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
::Looks solemn for a moment.:: CEO: You may need to shut down the core to diagnose the cause Ensign.  The Hayden is not expected to leave this area via warp anytime soon.  Do what you must Ensign, but keep the Hayden maneuverable and diagnose that ASAP.  Work with OPS and FCO.
CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
XO:Aye ma'am...but we will be on reserve power till i get the core back online.
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
OPS/FCO: Support the CEO in his efforts while the Away Team is on the planet.  The three of you along with the Captain will be maintaining this ship.
OPS_Verradi says:
::Sighs. Disengaging the core will leave the ship susceptible to all sorts of death.::
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
Away Team: If there are no further comments get your gear and meet in the Shuttle Bay 1 in 15 minutes for immediate departure.
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
All: Dismissed. ::Waits for everyone to exit then heads to her quarters for her gear and to change clothing.::
CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
FCO/OPS:Meet you two in engineering
FCO_Mades says:
::shrugs, gets up and heads back to the bridge::
CSO_So`tsoh says:
SO:  Lieutenant, one moment please.
OPS_Verradi says:
::Leaves to go back to the bridge--or is about to:: CEO: I have to monitor the away team and prepare them, Ensign.
CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
::steps into the lift::OPS:And the commander also asked you to help...
SO_Knight says:
::Puts his hat back on and stands:: CSO: Yes?
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
::After changing clothes and taking the gear, heads to the shuttlebay.::
CSO_So`tsoh says:
SO:  What do you remember about the cold war?
OPS_Verradi says:
CEO: And I will, but that doesn't mean I'm supposed to neglect my duties. I'll assist from the bridge, where I can do more good for you as well as everyone.
CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
OPS:What ever...I'll see you in engineering ::lets the lift doors close and tell the TL to go for engineering::
SO_Knight says:
CSO: I've been studyin' th' last 60 yrs. of the 20th. I have some knowledge 'bout  that era. Massive struggle on the two great superpowas the Unites States and the Soviet Union.
FCO_Mades says:
::logs back into his statuon and makes adjustments to thier orbit just to be safe::
OPS_Verradi says:
::Rolls his eyes. That Davidson wants to do things with Sin AND he's a myopic fool. So typical::
OPS_Verradi says:
::Gets back to his station on the bridge and prepares various link-ups with the commbadges of the AT members::
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
::Arrives in the Shuttle Bay, and gets in one of the shuttles and starts the prelaunch sequences while awaiting the others.::
CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
::enters Engineering::Computer:Request Secuirty Access...
FCO_Mades says:
::checks with the shuttlebay to make sure their shuttle was waiting for them::
SO_Knight says:
CSO: A clash o' ideologies an' nationalities. Bore the Cuban Missle Crisis and many other ills.
Host Rich says:
Action: The OPS console is showing power drains all over the ship.
OPS_Verradi says:
::Says various less-than-savory things as he looks at his console:: *CEO*: You haven't shut down the core yet, have you?
CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: Reaching into her bag.::  SO:  Whatever Bates did, the cold war became a real war in the late 1970's.  There was a Nuclear thermal war.  :: Hands him the items.::  These items are the various tools to help us out.  They are disguised and once you inter your codes, should anyone figure it out or try to, it will go dead... a minor explosion.
CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
*OPS*:About to...why....?
Host Rich says:
<Computer> CEO; go ahead.
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
::Tries to develop a hypothesis about the power drains the CEO reported and wonders if they might be linked to the altered timeline.::
CSO_So`tsoh says:
SO:  The damage should be minimal, though painful.  :: Nods toward the door and heads out.::
OPS_Verradi says:
*CEO*: Far too many drops in power. Be careful when you shut down that core.
CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
Computer:Emergency Core shut down...authorization Davidson Alpha 305 Beta...
CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
*OPS*:Understood
Host Rich says:
<Computer> CEO; Roger Core shut down in progress.
SO_Knight says:
::Follows the CSO:: CSO: I have a tricorder disguised as a pocketwatch. ::Pulls it out::
CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
::looks at the core::Core:Come on old girl...behave...
OPS_Verradi says:
::Shakes his head:: *XO*: Commander, we're suffering extensive power drains all over the ship. Nothing is quite working as it should. I advise that you remain on board until this is resolved.
Host Rich says:
Action: the Core shuts down with no problems.
CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: Nods::  SO:  Good.  Mine is jewelry and the other items you have are medical, in case we are separated.  Keep a close eye on our first officer.
FCO_Mades says:
::notes that warp power has gone offline::
CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: A thought comes to mind.:: *CEO*: Jay, check with the planet and see if there is a connection between the two, if it is responsible for the drain.
CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
*Attention All Hands*:Until Further notice we are on back up power only...grey mode stations in effect.
SO_Knight says:
CSO: Jay and I have studied the Cold War in the 'Cademy. Whatever he changed, we'll repair.
CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: Steps into the turbolift.::  Computer, shuttle bay.
CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
*CSO*:I never thought of that...and Sin...one more thing...
SO_Knight says:
CSO: I'll try. I'll keep an eye on 'er at all times.
CSO_So`tsoh says:
SO:  Keep in mind, whatever he did, could be something so very minor.  The trick will be to find what exactly he changed.  And for that, we need to narrow down the time.  I have included the data chip of the changes to lend us a hand.  Again, they are set to self destruct if tampered with... keep them with care.  There is a lot of history we <c>
CSO_So`tsoh says:
<c> are going to need to wade through.
CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: Steps off the turbolift and heads for the shuttle.::
CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
*CSO*:Be careful down there okay...come back in one peice...I still owe you a dinner remember
OPS_Verradi says:
::Continues preparing those link-ups. Not that it will probably matter... ah well.::
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
*OPS*:  Lt, these power drains may have a comparison to this altered time line.  It is imperative that the Away Team depart and find and fix the causes as quickly as possible.  Captain Davis-Patterson can advise further.
CSO_So`tsoh says:
* CEO*:  We have every intention of returning... prepare a celebration.
CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
*CSO*:Already have the holodeck book Sin.
SO_Knight says:
*CEO*: Doan worry, mate. You'll see those pointy ears again.
OPS_Verradi says:
::Sighs:: *XO*: Fair enough. But there's no guarantee that we will be able to beam you back or even maintain power to our communications grid.
SO_Knight says:
::Bags the equipment and takes a seat on the shuttle::
CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: Steps into the shuttle and takes copilots seat.::
CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
*SO*:I'm going to hold you to that Othello...make sure you come back to...okay?
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
*OPS*: Understood Lt.  Keep working to maintain the ship.  *FCO*: Lt, you may need to move the Hayden from this area to protect it.  Coordinate with the OPS and CEO.
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
::Looks to her assembeled Away Team.::
CSO_So`tsoh says:
:: Nods that they are ready.::
XO_LtCmdr_Aria_MD says:
::Does final launch prep and takes the helm and activates it.::
CEO_Ens_Davidson says:
::stairs at the core::Core:Okay...you and I have to talk...a very long talk.
Host Rich says:
Action: The shuttle leaves the Hayden and lands on the planet near the Arch.
