Host Karriaunna says:
Synopsis:  It was a simple survey mission of the Atoki Nebula, yet it held the mystery of a cube that triggers some memory within the CSO that he can't seem to grasp.

Now the Pendragon, finds themselves in the delicate position of trying to locate a 'super soldier' that may have been hiding on their ship for the last few months and return him alive if possible to Starfleet Command.

For some unknown reason this soldier took this opportunity to blast his way out of the Pendragon shuttle bay.  Why now?

The XO along with SFI had followed the soldier to a planet within the Nebula. The planet is barren and extremely cold, caught in the grips of an unnatural winter.

Landing they found themselves face to face with a paradox that sends chills down ones spine. – A battered Pendragon incased within a glacier.

The Pendragon, repaired, followed behind and has entered orbit...

CSO_Gunther says:
::coughs politely:: CO: Ummm, captain....

XO_Bafii says:
@ COMM:CO: At least some version of the Pendragon... suggest you have SCI scan for temporal disturbances

CTO_Kyrron says:
CO:  Tactical sensors confirm the Pendragon is on the surface, sir.

PED_Prin says:

SFI_Chamberlain says:
%COMM:CO: With or without the XO. You can come pick him up now if you want.

Host CO_Zax says:
COMM:SFI:Chamberlain, wait until back up reaches you. That's a direct order.

CTO_Kyrron says:
CO:  would you like to see the other ship.  I have the co-ordinates.

SFI_Chamberlain says:
<Agent_Martin>:CO: You called for me, sir?

XO_Bafii says:
@ :: watches the SFI ::

CSO_Gunther says:
::starts a third mental track, studying the extra Pendragon::

ACEO_Scully says:
::in ME, checking out engines::

CTO_Kyrron says:
CO:  There are no life forms on the other Pendragon, Sir.  Nor any evidence that the ships systems are powered.

TO_Isbetterthanone says:
::exits the lift for the bridge, moving swiftly to the tactical stations, stowing the rifles and half of the other phasers under the station, offering the CTO a Type II and a Type Ib as backup for what he knows she usually carries::

Host CO_Zax says:
::turns to Martin::

FCO_Rofax says:

CO: Captain, I just realized what seemed so familiar about that cube.

TO_Isbetterthanone says:
::nods with a small smile then turns to take Tactical II::

Host CO_Zax says:
Martin: Prepare to lead an away team to assist Chamberlain. You have three minutes to suit up and get to the shuttle.

XO_Bafii says:
@ :: seeing the SFI relent :: COMM:CO: Orders Captain?

CTO_Kyrron says:
TO:  We have located another Pendragon on the surface.

Host CO_Zax says:
COMM:XO: Martin will be planetside in five minutes with back up.

CTO_Kyrron says:
TO:  Scan it.  See what you can find.

Host CO_Zax says:
::raises a brow:: CSO: And?

PED_Prin says:
::Wonders where all these cultures came from::

EO_Pettigrove says:
ACEO:  Orders, Sir?

TO_Isbetterthanone says:
::turns looking at the CTO oddly:: CTO: Another Pendragon?  ::starts his own scans of the object on the surface.::

ACEO_Scully says:
EO: Keep the cube under observation, please

Host CO_Zax says:
CTO: Understood. Is she a replica?

CTO_Kyrron says:
::figures that if anyone can find some clues as to what is going on, this over-eager TO can::

CSO_Gunther says:
CO: It's made of an alloy that I was developing as a project at the Academy. I had to give it up because some of the materials I needed were too rare...difficult to find.

EO_Pettigrove says:
ACEO:  Yes Sir.  ::goes over to a console and brings up a visual of the cube::

ACEO_Scully says:
EO: Let me know if you observe any changes at all, please.

CTO_Kyrron says:
CO:  It’s the Pendragon, in all apparent ways.

EO_Pettigrove says:
ACEO:  Aye, Sir.

Host CO_Zax says:
::frowns:: CSO: You made this thing?

TO_Isbetterthanone says:
::looks in mild confusion at what he is seeing in his scans:: Self:  How weird...

Host CO_Zax says:
CTO: What downed her?

XO_Bafii says:
@ ::while waiting for agent Martin, runs some scans of the other Pendragon ::

CTO_Kyrron says:
TO:  Can you tell why that ship went down?

FCO_Rofax says:
::doesn't like the sound of this science project::

PED_Prin says:
::Sees something interesting in one and sets it aside::

SFI_Chamberlain says:
<Agent_Martin>:CO: Aye, sir! ::Looks around the Room:: ALL:FCO, CTO, OPS, you're with me.

CSO_Gunther says:
CO: No, I could never get enough garsenite to find out if it worked. Maybe it's a coincidence, but somebody duplicated my formula precisely.
 
CTO_Kyrron says:
TO:  You are in charge of tactical while I'm gone.  ::gets up with a nod toward Martin::

CSO_Gunther says:
CO: And this planet is loaded with garsenite.

CMO_Daetalus says:
::continues-stocking-emergancy-supplies-in-the-case-of-an-emergancy::

ACEO_Scully says:
EO: Have you seen the other ship?

FCO_Rofax says:
::turns helm over to a redshirt and follows the AT::

OPS_Qon says:
::Secures station and looks quizzically at Martin::

Host CO_Zax says:
COMM:XO: As soon as Martin arrives, send Chamberlain after the fugitive. You are to lead a second team to explore that ship.

TO_Isbetterthanone says:
::shakes himself back to the present::  CTO:  Checking sir. ::taps the console bit and reads the reply:: CTO:  No sir.  The only apparent damage is from her landing.

EO_Pettigrove says:
ACEO:  No I haven't yet.  I believe it's the same as this ship.

SFI_Chamberlain says:
<Agent_Martin>*CMO*: Meet us in Shuttle bay 2

ACEO_Scully says:
::calls up sensor data on the other ship::

CTO_Kyrron says:
TO:  Keep at it.  ::heads toward TL::

XO_Bafii says:
@ COMM:CO: Aye Captain

Host CO_Zax says:
::nods at Gunther::

OPS_Qon says:
::Leaves bridge and heads to quarters for Mek'leth::

TO_Isbetterthanone says:
::looks up and notices that the CTO is leaving, and vaguely remembers her handing tactical to him, logs out of Tac II and into Tac I::

Host CO_Zax says:
CSO: So this was planned? Just exactly what does this compound do?

FCO_Rofax says:
::enters TL and readies to exit to quarters for his "supplies"::

ACEO_Scully says:
EO: Get someone else to watch that cube, and then come over here and let's analyze the other ship for what went wrong, if anything, with her engines.

SFI_Chamberlain says:
<Agent_Martin>:: Goes to the shuttle bay and awaits the team::

CTO_Kyrron says:
FCO:  Here we go again.  ::waits as TL lumbers along::

EO_Pettigrove says:
::gets another Engineer to monitor the cube and goes to join the ACEO::

XO_Bafii says:
@ SFI: Looks like we each have our missions now... good luck with yours Chamberlain

CMO_Daetalus says:

OPS_Qon says:
::Grabbing equipment, then heads to the shuttle bay::

PED_Prin says:
::Looking up:: CMO: Aye, Sir.....

CSO_Gunther says:
::swallows:: CO: It's an ablative armor material. Tougher than anything we know of now. Should hold up exceptionally well to every weapon we've ever seen.

PED_Prin says:
::Sets her things aside and grabs a med-kit and heads out after the CMO::

OPS_Qon says:
::Enters shuttle bay and looks at Martin::

EO_Pettigrove says:
::looks at the scans::  ACEO:  Sir, look at this .... this ship looks old.

CTO_Kyrron says:
::exits TL and heads to shuttle bay::

FCO_Rofax says:
::grabs needed items and heads for SB::

SFI_Chamberlain says:
@XO: Yes therefore, you won't be needing our weapons. ::Grins::

CSO_Gunther says:
CO: We still can't tell what's inside. We're drilling slowly to get a better scan.

ACEO_Scully says:
EO: Notice the decay in the area surrounding that ship.  Bet it's been there -oh - 1000 years. :: looks carefully at data::

Host CO_Zax says:
::looks at him closely:: CSO: So in other words you've created a super suit compound? Something we can't shoot through?

XO_Bafii says:
@ :: smiles :: SFI: No take backs

ACEO_Scully says:
EO: What do you think caused that damage?

Host CO_Zax says:
CSO: See through or destroy?

CTO_Kyrron says:
::arrives in shuttle bay::  Martin:  What equipment do you suggest?

EO_Pettigrove says:
ACEO:  That's what I get ... approximate age 1000 years.

CMO_Daetalus says:
::heads-to-the-TL::TL_:Shuttlebay

EO_Pettigrove says:
ACEO:  Unknown ... I can't get any clear readings from here.

FCO_Rofax says:
::holsters his biomechanical gene disruptor rifle on his pack and his proto-matter fusion disruptor on his side.  double checks inside pouch for his trusty Bolian retractable machete::

Host CO_Zax says:
CSO: Who was privy to your experiment, LT?

CSO_Gunther says:
CO: That is correct, if my formulas were right. I'm sorry captain...I had the understanding that it was securely stored.

TO_Isbetterthanone says:
::looks down and notices that the CTO did not take either of the rifles.  Calls another TO and sends one to her in the shuttle bay::

SFI_Chamberlain says:
<Agent_Martin>:CTO: I suggest winter supplies, Weapons, We'll pick up from the Vera.

EO_Pettigrove says:
ACEO:  But it could have been damaged from the inside ... that would be consistent with the readings I'm getting.

PED_Prin says:
::Stands inside the TL with the CMO, her right arm resting across her abdomen::

Host CO_Zax says:
::shakes her head sadly:: CSO: Obviously not.

ACEO_Scully says:
EO: I can't see anything that may have caused it, but then we can't see much, can we?

CMO_Daetalus says:
::sees-the-PED::_PED:Are-you-alright

TO_Isbetterthanone says:
<TO_Beornottobe> CTO:  ::panting::  Sir.  You might need this.  ::hands her the rifle::

CSO_Gunther says:
CO: My instructors knew some of the details.

XO_Bafii says:
@ :: continues scans on the ice ship while waiting for the others ::

OPS_Qon says:
Martin: Will environment suits be ok?

FCO_Rofax says:
::enters SB and makes way for the shuttle::

EO_Pettigrove says:
::shakes her head:: ACEO:  We need to go down there to get any more information.

CTO_Kyrron says:
OPS:  All set?

ACEO_Scully says:
EO: Wouldn't you like to take a look inside?

EO_Pettigrove says:
::smiles::  ACEO:  Would I ever!!

PED_Prin says:
CMO: Yes, Sir......Just Braxton Hicks.

CTO_Kyrron says:
FCO:  You will be piloting us down, I presume.

OPS_Qon says:
CTO: Yes Commander

Host CO_Zax says:
CSO: Can you disassemble the compound?

CSO_Gunther says:
CO: The ship matches our quantum signature, and there aren't any residual tachyon readings.

CMO_Daetalus says:
::arrives-at-the-shuttlebay-and-gets-off::

SFI_Chamberlain says:
<Martin>:OPS: Winter Suits to keep us warm plus Heat packs.

OPS_Qon says:
Martin: Cold, how cold?

FCO_Rofax says:
CTO: I wouldn't want you running into anything, Cmdr.  ::grins::

XO_Bafii says:
@ COMM:CSO: I'm setting my tricorder to link with your station so we can share information

CSO_Gunther says:
CO: Disassemble? ::shakes head:: Engineering's best drills can only penetrate two millimeters a second, and that's on an extremely focused zone.

Host CO_Zax says:
::nods and sighs:: CSO: Is she us? And if so, how do we stop it?

CTO_Kyrron says:
::chuckles at the FCO::

XO_Bafii says:
@ :: adjusts his tricorder ::

SFI_Chamberlain says:
<Martin>: OPS: Prepare for the worst.

CSO_Gunther says:
COMM: XO: Acknowledged.

CMO_Daetalus says:
::heads-over-to-the-SFI::_SFI::_VVhat-did-you-need

OPS_Qon says:
::Shivers involuntarily at the prospect of cold::

ACEO_Scully says:
*XO* Sir, are you taking any engineers with you?

FCO_Rofax says:
::enters shuttle and begins launch sequence::

EO_Pettigrove says:
::looks frustrated:: ACEO:  I'm not going to get any more information from these scans.  So what do we do?

PED_Prin says:
::Follows the CMO::

CSO_Gunther says:
CO: It looks like she is....but she's very old, with no signs of having been moved through time. ::shakes head:: It doesn't make any sense.

CTO_Kyrron says:
::wonders what the PED is doing here::

OPS_Qon says:
::Enters shuttle::

CTO_Kyrron says:
::waits to find out::

CSO_Gunther says:
CO: It's worth noting that the cube and the ship seem to be approximately the same age.

Host CO_Zax says:
::sighs::

ACEO_Scully says:
EO: I guess we wait for the word of the AT.

SFI_Chamberlain says:
<Martin>:CMO: In case we find bodies, lets move people. ::Gets in the Shuttle:: FCO: Set coordinates for the Vera.

Host CO_Zax says:
CSO: Okay, Lt. It seems like our answers lie within the cube.

XO_Bafii says:
@ COMM: aCEO: I don't believe anyone was assigned - if you can spare one it might be helpful

EO_Pettigrove says:
::sighs ... really wanted to go with the AT and explore that ship::

ACEO_Scully says:
EO: Want to go?

CTO_Kyrron says:
CMO:  The PED is not coming with us.  ::enters the shuttle::

EO_Pettigrove says:
::Grins::  ACEO:  I'm on my way!!!

SFI_Chamberlain says:
<Martin>:COMM:Vera:Chamberlain: Sir, we'll be getting weapons from the armory, sir.

FCO_Rofax says:
Martin: Aye sir.  ::taps panel and awaits clearance from the bridge::

ACEO_Scully says:
@COMM XO: Engineer Pettigrove will be joining you shortly., Sir.

PED_Prin says:
::Steps up:: CTO: I was asked to.....and you can talk directly to me!

CMO_Daetalus says:

XO_Bafii says:
@COMM:aCEO: Thank you Scully

EO_Pettigrove says:
::leaves ME, gets all the gear she needs and just about sprints to the SB::

CTO_Kyrron says:
PED:  That is enough insubordination!

SFI_Chamberlain says:
@COMM:Martin: Alright, How many in your group?

CTO_Kyrron says:
::makes a note to write up a reprimand for the PED::

PED_Prin says:
CMO: Aye, Sir..... ::Crosses her arm tightly over her chest deciding to talk to the CTO later::

Host CO_Zax says:
*CEO*: Any news on the cube?

CMO_Daetalus says:
::looks-at-the-CTO::

FCO_Rofax says:
*AOPS* We are ready to depart.  Permission to leave the SB.  Unless we want another "skylight" in the hull....

ACEO_Scully says:
*CSO* We've dated the other ship at about 1000 years old.  Anything from your end?

OPS_Qon says:
::Sitting on the bench seat of the shuttle::

OPS_Qon says:

CSO_Gunther says:
::nods to the CO and follows::

Host CO_Zax says:

# Team: Suggestions?

::analyzes the shield::

EO_Pettigrove says:
#XO:  Sir, maybe the shuttle's phasers could burn through that much ice in a relatively short time.

SFI_Chamberlain says:
@::Taps his transponder::Martin: Can you hear me?

OPS_Qon says:
