Summary
The Nighthawk and 16 starships prepared to depart to retrieve the President of the Federation.  The Scimitar used it engines to make a rift to the realm that the crew of the Nighthawk can never forget.  They went through with their wings the USS Highlander, USS Raven and USS Delgado.  During the trip there was major disruptions in the rift, it caused the rift to close and collapse.  The Nighthawk was damaged, but not as severely as the Highlander, whom had massive internal damage.  They tried to repair as much as they could but it didn’t matter.  The ship collapsed on itself, and caused a warp core breach.  The crew of the Highlander was transported to the Nighthawk and the rest of the wing.  They resumed course to the intended target.  Will the Nighthawk rescue the President?  Find out next time.

Announcements
Big welcome to Scott aboard the ship!  Welcome aboard!
Big thanks to all the NPCs that helped out today!
Logs, logs, logs!

Time Lapse
Not too sure.

Host CJ-Tala says:
Summary - Starfleet is preparing for war. Peace remains an option, but for now military force seems to be the priority of Starfleet Command. Several weeks ago the President of the United Federation of Planets was abducted by an alien species known as the Nacandarians...
Host CJ-Tala says:
...the circumstances of the abduction are unknown to the crew of the Nighthawk - and most of the crew are even unaware of the President's disappearance. However, despite their lack of knowledge, the crew of the U.S.S. Nighthawk have been assigned to a task force sent to retrieve the President from an alien realm - a realm the crew of the Nighthawk
Host CJ-Tala says:
only just recently returned from. The fleet has amassed, and the Nighthawk has set course for the rendezvous coordinates...full impulse. They will arrive in mere moments...and await the start of their mission...

Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
::Walks out of the Ready Room:: AXO: Ship status?
CMO_Santiago says:
::In sickbay just finishing off a staff meeting.::
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
::checks comm with Nighhawk's wing and Task Force leader, the U.S.S. Scimitar::
H_CO_Daybien says:
@ ::The Akira Class U.S.S. Highlander comes up on the Nighthawk's flank, preparing for departure::
AXO_Lt_Jackson says:
::Looks at the ready room doors:: ACO: We´re nearly there... All departments reporting ready... ::Gets up:: All yours, commander..
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
::ensures all power settings are within norms::
Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
::Walks out to the Command Chair, and peers out the viewscreen:: AXO: Good.  How many ship have reported here?

ACTION - Waltz's board is flooded with status reports from the various ships as the task force makes their way to the edge of Sol Sector and the designated coordinates.

CMO_Santiago says:
<Tessie>  CMO:  I'm heading for Cargo bay 2 to set up the alternate sickbay.. it shouldn't take too long.. We've got it down to a science.  ::Watches as the rest of her team exits sickbay.::
CMO_Santiago says:
Tessie:  Excellent.. I'm going to head up to the bridge for a moment to see what is going on and to bother Varesh... Buzz me if you need me.. ::Waves as Tessie exits sickbay.::

ACTION - Various officers from command, mostly attaches and Intelligence officers make their way through the Nighthawk, assigned temporarily by Admiral Benson during this assignment...

AXO_Lt_Jackson says:
ACO: Including our own contribution, we´re a taskforce of sixteen vessels... ::Walks to his own station:: Preparing vessel for Red Alert..
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
::nods at the Task Force reports all indicating they are ready::
CSO_ENS_G`dar says:
:sits at Science and checks the sensors:
CMO_Santiago says:
::Grabs a padd of her desk and exits her office.. for a moment she watches the bussel of sickbay and Nicholas going over the alien physiology with the new members of the crew and she smiles to herself.. she has a great staff.  Turning on her heal she exits sickbay and heads for the TL.::
Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
::Takes his seat:: AXO: 16 ships... OPS: Signal the Task Force We will be getting under way soon.

ACTION - The two fastest - and apparently most eager - ships, the Nighthawk and the U.S.S. Legacy (a Defiant from the Scimitar's wing) make it to the coordinates.

OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
CO: Aye sir. ::sends signal to Scimitar that the Nighthawk wing is getting under way::
Host CJ-Tala says:
<FCO_Starr> ::She glances at the control console and glances back:: ACO: Arriving at the designated coordinates, Commander.
CMO_Santiago says:
::The TL doors open and she steps in...:: Computer:  Bridge.  ::She leans against the back of the lift and closes her eyes.  She is dreading going back their time in that dimension was not a good one.::
AXO_Lt_Jackson says:
::Sits down behind his console, going through various system reports:: ACO: Tactical systems within set parameters... We´re good to go...
Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
::Takes a padd from a Yeoman::  FCO: Very well.
CMO_Santiago says:
::TL Stops on deck four and an Ens gets one, someone from sciences by the look of him.  Someone she didn't know.  She nods::
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
CO: Sir, Scimitar requests that we hold position.
CMO_Santiago says:
<Ens> CMO:  Ma'am.  ::Nods back at her then faces the TL doors as the TL gets underway again.::

ACTION - The task force comes up alongside the Nighthawk, and a large Galaxy class cruiser, the U.S.S. Vesuvius flies right above the small Sabre.

Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
OPS: Acknowledge the signal.  FCO: Hold position.
Host CJ-Tala says:
<FCO_Starr> ACO: Aye sir, coming to full stop.
CMO_Santiago says:
::Finally the TL gets to the bridge and the doors open and she steps out.::
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
::nods to Captain and acknowledges the Scimitar's order::
Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
::Watches the Huge Galaxy Class zoom by:: Self: I outta...
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::enters the bridge to watch the proceedings::
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
CO: Some discussion between the Dublin and Captain Black about going in weapons hot.
H_CO_Daybien says:
@ ::Notes the Vesuvius showing off::
CMO_Santiago says:
::Stepping out onto the bridge she walks over to Jackson.::  AXO:  Here is the stats for sickbay.. we are ready.. Tessie is setting up Cargo BAy 2 in case and Dr Tran is instructing the new members of the staff regarding the Nacamandarians.
CSO_ENS_G`dar says:
::looks at the sensors and notices how much smaller the Nighthawk is than the Vesuvius::

ACTION - A count-down comes in through the comm systems of the task force, an automated voice from the U.S.S. Scimitar. "5...4...3...2..."

Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
OPS: Very well.  ::Turns to his left:: AXO: Battlestations.
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
CO: Scimitar is opening the rift.
CMO_Santiago says:
::Hears the countdown and looks for V.::
AXO_Lt_Jackson says:
::Turns around to take the padd:: CMO: Thank you doctor.. ::Turns further to face the ACO:: ACO: Well, guess this is it then... The point of no return...

ACTION - As the computerized voice reaches one, a bright flash of white light floods the Nighthawk viewscreen - nearly blinding all aboard. As the light diminishes, a bright purple rift can be seen, swirling and shifting, crackling with white energy...

Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
AXO: Then we are not turning back then.
AXO_Lt_Jackson says:
::Turns around again and goes to Red Alert... Listening to the claxons, he sees the weapons and shields come online one by one:: ACO: All decks report red alert. Crew is moving to battle stations...
H_CO_Daybien says:
@ ::Recalls seeing rifts like these a lot five years ago in the Aquilae Star Cluster. Shudders at the memory. Half expects fighters to come flying out at them::
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
::Blinks at the bright flash on the view screen::
Host CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
::Still at the back of the bridge she covers her eyes for a moment.  Taking a deep breath.:: Self:: Here goes nothing.
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::catches Anita's eye just as they enter the rift and reaches for her hand::

ACTION - As red alert is sounded, various officers throughout the ship go to battle stations...an Intel officer rushes past Varesh and nearly knocks him over.

Host CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
::Takes up positions with V.::  CNS: Here we go again.  I kinda don't want to go back.
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
::Checks that all systems have responded to red alert... fusion generator comes on line::
CSO_ENS_G`dar says:
:gets blinded by the flash::
CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
::catches V as he is almost knocked down.::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::stumbles into Anita, growling at the Intel person::
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
CO: Our turn... orders to go on through.
CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
::Whispers to him.:: CNS:  I'm sure I can scare up a reasons for him to have a full physical.  One of my special ones behind a level 9 forcefield.  ::Grins at him.::
AXO_Lt_Jackson says:
::Turns to his right to face the CSO:: CSO: Hell of a mission you picked to join us, ensign... ::Smiles::
Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
OPS: Signal the task force to follow us in.  FCO: Ahead,  half impulse.
CSO_ENS_G`dar says:
ACO: The sensors are picking up massive gravaton shifts, high levels of radiation. Shields are protecting us
Host CJ-Tala says:
<FCO_Starr> ::She smiles and nods once:: ACO: Engaging impulse engines.
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
CO: Aye sir.  ::sends signal to Task Force that Nighthawk has the lead... and is entering the rift.::
CSO_ENS_G`dar says:
ACO:All other ships are standing by fully powered. The Scimitar is stable

ACTION - The Nighthawk moves towards the crackling mass of energy, the Highlander and other ships following close behind.

CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
::Taps her combadge.:: *Tessie*: We are heading into the rift.  Standby..hopefully it will be a smooth ride.
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::shoots Anita a weak grin:: CMO: I think a psych eval is better...
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
::Monitors power to ensure it stays stable::
CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
<Tessie> *CMO*:  Standing by...
H_CO_Daybien says:
@ ::The Highlander engages impulse and pursues::
CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
::Chuckles:: CNS:  As long as you use electric shock therapy my friend.
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
::really wonders why he was in a hurry to join the Nighthawk just now::
AXO_Lt_Jackson says:
::Does a final check on the tactical systems before grabbing his console, in case they´re in for a bumpy ride::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
CMO: Nah, I just convince them they are insane.
CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
::Grins at V.::
Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
AXO: Status?

ACTION - The first wing of the task force enters the subspace rift. As they do, white and purple lights crackle around them. Systems hold, but the shields begin to take a beating...

ACTION - The deck shakes as inertial dampeners struggle to compensate...

AXO_Lt_Jackson says:
::Releases 1 hand to tap the console:: ACO: Tactical at full efficiency, battle stations are manned... All other stations appear to be nominal...
CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
::Holds onto V as she tries to keep her balance.::
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
::Checks inertial dampeners and SIF::
H_CO_Daybien says:
@ ::They try to compensate for the shield fluctuations::
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
::Winces as the ships begins to shake::
Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
::Hangs onto his chair:: OPS: Transfer power auxilary power to the shields.
AXO_Lt_Jackson says:
::Looks over his shoulder:: ACO: The shields are getting quite some beating.... Still holding...
CSO_ENS_G`dar says:
::continues to monitor sensors. Feels his lunch begining to move with the shakes::
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
::raises eyebrow and diverts auxilary power to shields::  CO: Aye sir.
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
::Notes some power fluctuations and adjusts accordingly::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::frowns, getting a feeling of dread... something REALLY bad going to happen. He looks around for the clicking sound, which disappears just as quickly::
Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
CSO: Time to clear the rift?
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
XO: Getting some power fluctuations... have adjusted... no problems.
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
CMO: Did you hear that?
CSO_ENS_G`dar says:
ACO: Anytime now Sir
AXO_Lt_Jackson says:
::Takes the chance to release his other hand to check on weapon status::
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
::really doesn't like the bucking and shaking the ship is doing::

ACTION - The bridge is flooded with purple light, and shadows dance along the back walls. The console next to Santiago flickers and sparks.

OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
Self: Why didn't I ask for a Galaxy class?
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
::Notes the color change on the bridge and wonders if this is normal?::
CSO_ENS_G`dar says:
ACO: Major radiation spike. The rift is unstable.
CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
CNS:  HEar what?  ::Jumps as the console nearest here sparks.::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::sees the console flicker and pulls Anita out of the way::

ACTION - The ship's rocking levels off...but then without warning the ship lurches to the left as the subspace rift destabilizes.

H_CO_Daybien says:
@ ::Alarms start going off ... shields fail:: What in the ..! ::They try to get them back up as the rift comes apart::
Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
CSO: What!
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
CMO: There was a clicking sound... not that it matters at the moment! ::hears the CSO's report::
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
::Sways with the sudden lurch as the dampeners try to catch up::
CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
CNS:  CLic......  ::Hears the CSO.::
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
::Quickly checks all power relays::
Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
::Looks around:: FCO: Where are we?

ACTION - The Nighthawk lurches to the side once more and suddenly all the purple light vanishes...black returns to the viewscreen of the U.S.S. Nighthawk...and they find themselves once more in open space...

AXO_Lt_Jackson says:
::Is pressed into his seat as the ship lurches to the left.. Quickly brings his hands back to the console:: ACO: Commander, the Highlander is showing signs of power fluctuation.... The spike must have caught them at full blast...
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::watches the viewscreen:: CMO: At least we're in "normal" space again.
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
CO: Our wing is reporting in...
H_CO_Daybien says:
@ ::The Highland attempts to slow to a halt as some of the major systems are destabilized by the subspace shift::
Host CJ-Tala says:
<FCO_Starr> ACO: Checking...she glances towards science for verification:: I...I don't know, sir...
Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
OPS: Get me the Highlander.
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
CO: But that's it... the rest of the Task Force isn't there... or at least not talking.
Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
FCO: Check faster!
Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
OPS: What?

ACTION - The Highlander tears out of the ubstable subspace rift, the Delago and the Raven follow close behind...but no other task force ships check in...

Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
CSO: Verify that the others are not behind?
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
::Resends comm to the Scimiar::
CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
::Shudders:: CMO:  Yeah normal... ::Hears that they may not have the other ships with them.::

ACTION - The Akira class U.S.S. Highlander drifts into the view of the Nighthawk viewscreen - her engines are dark, and the ship seems to be drifting out of control...

CSO_ENS_G`dar says:
::checks the sensors::ACO: Im only picking up three warp signatures. Its our wing. No other ships detected
H_CO_Daybien says:
@ COM: Nighthawk: Nighthawk, this is the Highlander we've had a massive systems failure ... damn Subspace shift burned out our engines ...
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::frowns:: CMO: Lets hope it doesn't take another year for us to get out of this one.
AXO_Lt_Jackson says:
::Looks at the console:: ACO: Confirmed sir! Tactical scanners are showing just 3 other starfleet vessels..
CSO_ENS_G`dar says:
ACO: Commander the rift has just closed
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
CO: Still no comm with the Scimitar.
Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
::Turns to the CMO:: CMO: Doctor, Get down to sickbay and prepare a triage team to beam over to the highlander
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
ACO: Permission to go with the triage team, sir?

OPS: Energize
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
CO: Doing it now. ::Activates transporter::

ACTION - In a shimmer of blue light Varesh, Santiago and their team beam into the Engineering section of the U.S.S. Highlander. Engineering is a mess, filled with shattered consoles and burned out power relays...not to mention the injured. Not many, but not nice either.

CSO_ENS_G`dar says:
OPS: Thanks::Scans for any spacial anomalies::
Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
COM: Highlander: What is your top speed?
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
@::appears in a shimmer of blue:: CMO: Nasty. ::immediately heads for one of the injured and pulls out his tricorder as he kneels next to the man::
CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
@::Materializes on the Highlander engineering section and sees the mess. Jumps into action notices Nicholas has already bent over the first patient.::
H_CO_Daybien says:
@ COM: Nighthawk: Right now we're working on getting full impulse. We're at 1/4th.
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
::sighs in relief that the transporters really did work::
CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
@::Climbs over a beam to one that is pinned beneath and pulls out her tricorder.:: Anyone:  I NEED THIS BEAM MOVED NOW!... ::Opens her med kit.::
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
Self: ::mutters:: Like this was mentioned at the academy.
Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
COM: Highlander: Good.  We have to find a place to get you repaired.
Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
CSO: Any place safe?
AXO_Lt_Jackson says:
::Keeps checking the tactical systems, making sure they´re prepared to respond within moments::

ACTION - The U.S.S. Delago and U.S.S. Raven send comms to the Nighthawk, awaiting orders.

CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
@::hears Anita bellow something, but is too immersend in diagnosing his patient and getting the medication right, he doesn't hear::
CSO_ENS_G`dar says:
ACO: Im not picking up any anomalies ahead but im detecting an Ion storm. we may have to go around it.
CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
@::Sees that everone is stunned and trying to keep the ship in tact.::  *OPS*:  Ens Waltz.. lock onto my location...there is a beam... two feet in front of me... lock onto it and beam it into space please...
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
::Gets final damage reports:: XO: Some blown EPS conduits... nothing major... repairs under way now.
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
XO: Will need some systems checks soon.
CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
@::Pulls out a hypo and places against the chiefs neck...:: Self:  At least it will relieve some of the pain until I see the damage.
AXO_Lt_Jackson says:
::Acknowledges the OPS´ report without looking at him::

ACTION - The hull of the Highlander groans loudly as the ship begins to drift in space.

CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
@::injects the painkiller and grimaces at his tricorder:: CMO: Can we tag them to be beamed over to the Nighthawk?

ACTION - The Hawk can see as the Highlander's impulse engines fire in an attempt to gain atitude control - it appears the attempt is successful...so far...

CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
@CNS:  Yes... straight to Cargo bay 2... Tessie is waiting there... ::Curses::  What is taking Ens Waltz so long... I just want a beam moved.
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
@*OPS*: Target my location and beam the patient at my feet to Cargobay Two... when you beam that support beam out of the way for the doctor.
Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
CSO: What is our location?
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
*CMO*: Can do. :: fine tunes the transporter beam and sends the obstruction into space::

ACTION - As G'dar scans the nearby region, a map of the sector shows up on his display, it appears they have a nearly perfect path between Coobla space, and the territory of the Nacandarians...heading right to their destination - the Coobla outpost.

H_CO_Daybien says:
@ ::The crew are attempting to keep their ship together, the damage from the subspace shearing was worse than they anticipated::
Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
::Pulls out of his chair and walks to his Science officer::

ACTION - The light from the impulse engines fail, and the Highlander begins to spin out of control...

CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
@*OPS*:  Thank you thank you.... ::Begins working fevorishly to stablize him.::  We are going to have a lot of work for you... we need all the injured beamed to Cargo bay 2...
CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
@::Feels the ship starting to spin::  CNS:  Now what?.....
Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
AXO: How do you feel about a little stroll to a Coobla Outpost?
AXO_Lt_Jackson says:
::Looks up:: ACO: Commander.. The Highlander! A big power spike...... Critical power failure...
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
*CMO*: Right... just tell me when.
H_CO_Daybien says:
@ ::An alarm goes off:: Good god.
H_CO_Daybien says:
@ COM: Nighthawk: We might have to evacuate. We're having major power fluctuations in the EPS grids. We could be looking at a core breach.
CSO_ENS_G`dar says:
::Scans the region::ACO: We have a nerly perfect path between Coobla space, and the territory of the Nacandarians.
CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
@::Hears the alarm and pales.::  CNS:  NEW PLAN.... Get everyone out of here!!

ACTION - Sirens begins to go off in the Highlander Engine Room, as the stable and moving engineers begin to frantically work, trying to stabilize the power systems.

OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
::finally gets his act together and beams out the CNS' patient to cargo bay two::
CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
@*OPS*:  STart locking one... wide beam out... grab everyone you can! leave the awayteam til last.
Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:

Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
FCO: When the beam out is complete, Set a course out of here, Maximum Warp!
AXO_Lt_Jackson says:
::Turns back to his console, dropping the shields so they won´t pose a problem for transport:: ACO: Aye sir! *Cargo Bay 2*: Bridge to cargobay two, prepare for incoming casualties!

ACTION - The Counselor and Medical Officer's patients are beamed to the cargo bay, as the three ships in the wing begin to evacuate Highlander personnel.

OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
*Sickbay*: You have patients in cargo bay 2.
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
@CMO: The injured are on their way to the ship. ::watches as the injured disappear::

CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
@CNS:  Aye.. we better check the rest of the ship to make sure everyone is going.

ACTION - Sirens and alarms flash on the Highlander, looks like you're going to be blown to pieces in, oh...five minutes?

H_CO_Daybien says:
@ *ALL* All hands abandon ship. This is not a drill. We have a core breach in progress. All hands abandon ship.
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
@CMO: Like the Captain doesn't know his ship is going to blow?
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
@::hears:: CMO: See... time for us to leave too.
Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
OPS: Is the Doctor aboard yet?
AXO_Lt_Jackson says:
::Shakes head:: ACO: We need to work faster! They may have even less than five minutes left before they´re gone... Their main systems are showing signs of an overload..
CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
@CNS: Let's find a life pod

ACTION - Personnel rush to life pods as others are beamed directly off the ship by the Delago and the Nighthawk...

OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
*CMO*: Time to leave.
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
@CMO: Seems we get the easy ride across.
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
::Beams AT back::
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
CO: Is now sir ::grins::
CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
@::Heads for the life pods.:: *OPS*:  Have the rest bee..... ::materializesx onboard the Nighthawk.::  CNS:  Or we can just beam across.
CSO_ENS_G`dar says:
::Redirects Short range sensors to monitor the core breach::
Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
OPS: Knowing her, she wants to stay there until everyone is off...
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::appears on the Nighthawk:: CMO: Yes. Now, lets get to cargo bay two.

ACTION - A support beam in Engineering collapses, and a loud crack and groan can be heard as the beam tumbles down at the same moment, a shimmering blue light pulls her and Varesh away, giving neither officer time to react.

CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
::Steps off the transporter pad.:: *OPS*:  Thank you Ens.. Your timing was impeccable as always... you'll have a saurian brandy in your quarters tonight.
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
*CMO*: My pleasure ma'am.. ::wonders what Saurian brandy tastes like::
CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
<Warren> *CMO*:  We have an emergency in sickbay doctor... one requiring surgery... the pressure on his brain is too great... I'm locking on to you... ::Feels the transporter take hold again.::
Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
OPS: IS everyone out?
CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
::Waves to Varesh.::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::sees Anita disappears and hotfoots it to CB2 to go help Tessie::
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
CO: All but the Highlander command staff

ACTION - The Highlander begins to shake as the vessel begins to spiral out of control and inertial dampeners throughout the ship fail.

OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
CO: Trying to lock on now.
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
::fingers fly making minute adjustments::
AXO_Lt_Jackson says:
::Takes a deep breath and holds it, looking at the scene on the viewscreen::
H_CO_Daybien says:
@ ::Attempts to get the senior crew beamed to other ships::
CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
::Materializes in sickbay as Warren hands her a padd.  Quickly reading it she heads for the sterialization room where Nurse Rowen begins to get her gowned up..dropping the padd down on the table she sticks her arms into the sterilizer.::
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
::Curses softly and gets a lock::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::enters CB2:: Tessie: I'm here. ::goes to the nearest patient and starts scanning with the tricorder::
CSO_ENS_G`dar says:
ACO: Core breach in 30 seconds
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
CO: Got them ::locks on to Highlander staff and beams them to Nighthawk::
CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
<Tessie> CNS:  You are a sight for sore eyes my love... now get to work.. I'll kiss you later.. ::Goes back to her patient.::
H_CO_Daybien says:
@ ::Gets beamed over to the Nighthawk::
H_CO_Daybien says:
*Nighthawk Bridge* Get your ship out of range, the Highlander's blowin' in 30!
Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
::Stands:: FCO: Engage!  OPS: Tell the Wing to follow!

ACTION - A shimmer of blue light grabs hold of Daybien...as he materializes, he hears the horrified scream of his XO, who was unfortunately in the Engineering section where the gravity field was the highest...

OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
CO: Aye sir... ::Sends message to the wing::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::grins as he works:: Tessie: I'll tell Nicholas you want to kiss me... and you have very pretty eyes. I'll catch up with you when we're done... ::applies the hypospray to the man's neck and starts with the dermal regeneration::
CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
::Once finished she picks up the Padd again and enters the surgical area where the patient has already been prepped.:;  Computer:  Display patient records, last test first please.  ::Watches as the tests come across the screen::

ACTION - Daybien materializes next to a very liquidly XO.

Host CJ-Tala says:
<FCO_Starr> ACO: Aye sir! ::Hits the engage command as the ships jump to warp::
CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
<Tessie> ::Scoffs:: CNS:  He already knows.. Applies a bone regenerator to a man's leg.::
OPS_Ens_Waltz says:
CO: Highlander staff was beamed to cargo bay 2.
H_CO_Daybien says:
::Sees his XO liquified, loses his lunch, breakfast, etc.::
CMO_Cmdr_Santiago says:
::Reading over the results twice and double checking with her scans she takes a deep breath.  She is ready.::  Nurse.:  Laser scalpel.
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::continues the deep tissue regen:: Tessie: Well, at least you have good taste. ::sees the patient smile, and knows he'll be alright::
Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
FCO: Set a course for the target coordinates.  Let's get this done and over with. Maximum Warp.
CSO_ENS_G`dar says:
::is thankfull he didnt become an engineer::
AXO_Lt_Jackson says:
::Turns back to his console and the active scans::
Host ACO_Cmdr_Monroe says:
AXO: You have the Bridge.  I'll be in the Cargobay

ACTION - The U.S.S. Nighthawk jumps to warp, flanked by the Raven and the Delgado. As the Highlander tears itself appart, a large shockwave rips through the ships hull and out into space...the Hawk escapes...barely...
They are lost, in an alien realm they only just recently escaped from. Their doorway home is gone, and their allies out of sight...now what?
