Captain's Log - SD 10405.22

Our presence in the Beta Quadrant has gone unnoticed thus far, but I fear that may change rather soon.  A Dominion Cruiser is closing on our position, and although its status is unknown, it is being regarded for its brutally lethal reputation.

CO_Capt_Rofax says:
Time and patience are our greatest allies for the moment.  I only fear one of them will betray us before our time here is complete.

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
@::Makes sure that all his teams are getting under cover as best as possible then heads into the big building::

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:

CO_Capt_Rofax says:
::seated in the center chair, eyes glued to the Tactical Scans::

MO_Ens_Carter says:
::in Sickbay, examining a crewman who has had a tachy heart rate for days:: Crewman: So this has been going on for 2 days?

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
@CSO:  Be careful!

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
CO:  We're at reduced power mode.

FCO_Ens_White says:
@::looking at the vehicle::

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
@::looks over to the LtCmdr:: OPS: Aye, but remember, we supposed to be getting under cover, and this looks like a good place to do it.

MO_Ens_Carter says:
<Crewman>MO: Yeah, no matter what I do it feels like my heart is gonna explode.

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
:: checks status monitor, notes the presence of the Dominion cruiser with surprise ::

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
@::grins:: CSO:  Good point.  ::runs to the building::

CO_Capt_Rofax says:
CNS: Good... any signs of life from the scans of the Dominion vessel?

TO_Ens_Newind says:
@::following the CSO, watching everybody’s backs... and fronts::

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
@::takes another look at the surrounds then steps through the door and looks around inside the building::

MO_Ens_Carter says:
::nods, grabbing a hypospray:: Crewman: I’m gonna give you some lidocaine, should do the trick. ::sets to 5 mikes per kilo and administers the dose::

FCO_Ens_White says:
<FCO_Black>::maintaining a low orbit of the moon trying not to use power if possible::

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
EO: Mr. Daimien... we need to get the shields reconfigured for polaron weapons. Grab an engineering kit and meet me in Shield Control.

Host Cat says:
Action: The cruiser continues to approach the Pendragon's position.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
CO:  I'll see if we're in range yet, Sir.

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
:: exits Main Engineering and heads down the corridor ::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::initiates passive scans of the Cruiser::

MO_Ens_Carter says:
<Crewman> ::nods as he lays back to relax::

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
@CSO:  Anything interesting in here?  ::enters the building behind the CSO::

CO_Capt_Rofax says:
::nods, clearly expressing his concern for extreme caution::

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
@::looks for something to sit on that will be comfortable:: OPS: I’m wondering if there is a chair around here somewhere .::smiles::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
CO:  Captain, its powered up but operating automatically.  There are no life signs.

EO_Daimien says:
:;runs to catch up with the CEO::

MO_Ens_Carter says:
::rechecks his vitals, noticing that the heart rate decreases to below 100:: Crewman: Next time, read the dose on the male enhancement drug before taking it.

FCO_Ens_White says:
@::walks quickly after the team::

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
@CSO:  Well, there is the floor ...

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
:: enters Shield Control, immediately goes to an access panel and opens it ::

CO_Capt_Rofax says:
CNS: I was afraid you would say that.... weapons status?

EO_Daimien says:
CEO: Any idea why we'd be finding a Dominion ship all the way out here?

MO_Ens_Carter says:
<Crewman> ::is clearly embarrassed:: MO: Doc! How did you know!

EO_Daimien says:
::follows into shield control::

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
@::nods:: OPS: But is that going to be nice if we have to sit this out for a couple of hours, or days??

EO_Daimien says:
::opens his kit::

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
@::shrugs:: CSO:  Beats standing up.

Host Cat says:
Action: Ahead of the Away Team are a series of doors, each one exactly the same as the others. Each with a color crystal embedded on the door.

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
EO: None whatsoever. Right now, we have to be prepared for an attack. Give me the isolinear reprogrammer from the kit, then run a diagnostic on the anti-polaron subroutines.

FCO_Ens_White says:
@::enters the building and looks around::

TO_Ens_Newind says:
@::walks to one of the doors, touches it::

MO_Ens_Carter says:
Crewman: That's why I'm the doc...::laughs:: You can go, lemme know if you have any problems.

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
@*TO/FCO*:  Meet us in the big building near the edge of the square.  We may have found something interesting ..

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
CO:  The shields are up and weapons armed, but still no sign of life.

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
@::nods, then points to the doors ahead:: OPS: We could always try those.

EO_Daimien says:
::hand him the isolinear reprogrammer:: CEO:Aye Sir

Host Cat says:
Action: The door remains closed.

FCO_Ens_White says:
@::walks up behind the OPS and coughs quietly::

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
@CSO:  Remember the last time we opened doors ... ::jumps as she hears the FCO behind her::

CO_Capt_Rofax says:
CNS: Noted.   Helm: Hold Position.  ALL: No further scans at this time.....

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
EO: Thanks.   :: disappears into the access hatchway ::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
CO:  Just let it pass, Sir?

EO_Daimien says:
::runs a diagnostic on the anti-polaron subroutines:: CEO: I'll have the results from the diagnostics in a few seconds::works::

FCO_Ens_White says:
<FCO_Black>CO:Yes sir.

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
@::moves to the next door and tries it::

Host Cat says:
Action: There is a large statue of a man holding a sword in one hand, a book in another in the same area as the AT.

CO_Capt_Rofax says:
CNS: I want us to be behind it before we take any further course of action,

Host Cat says:
Action: The door remains closed.

Host Cat says:
Action: It seems to be locked.

FCO_Ens_White says:
<FCO_Black>::continues attempting to hold position as efficiently as possible::

MO_Ens_Carter says:
::goes to his microscope, looking at a blood sample, checks his slide:: Self: Now how did that get there. ::removes the piece of pizza from the slide::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::nods and resumes monitoring the ship’s progress::

TO_Ens_Newind says:
@::notes a strange resemblance of the statue::

FCO_Ens_White says:
@::walks up to one of the doors and kicks the side near the middle::

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
@::looks at the statue wondering what it reminds her of::

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
@OPS: Not really no. My guess is this place was something to do with local government. I don’t suspect too much bad around here, and maybe there will be records of their culture

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
:: muffled :: EO: Good. Once that's done, I need you to check the dekyon emitter arrays. They all need to be phase-matched to within 5 attohertz.

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
@::points to the statue:: CSO:  Maybe justice or law ...

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
CO:  It should be at its nearest point to us in five minutes.

Host Cat says:
Action: White hears a crack as he breaks his big toe.

EO_Daimien says:
CEO: We're green across the board as far as the anti-polaron subroutines are concerned::peers into the hatch::

Host Cat says:
Action: The door remains closed.

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
:: a loud SNAP, as of electrical arcing, is heard ::  Self (shouts): Damn!

FCO_Ens_White says:
@::Swears and looks at the door than looks at his toe and swears again::

TO_Ens_Newind says:
@ALL: Courthouse? PD ?

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
@OPS: That would be an earth interpretation. But I’m guessing that it is something close to that.

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
@::looks at White:: FCO:  Is there a problem Lt?

FCO_Ens_White says:
@Self: stupid.

EO_Daimien says:
CEO: Checking the dekyon emitter array now...looks okay so far

Host Cat says:
Action: Power goes out on decks 7, 12, and 5.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::responds to an alarm on the OPS console::

FCO_Ens_White says:
@::Sits down and takes the weight off his foot::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
CO:  We've lost power on three decks.

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
@FCO: Ensign. Don’t you think it will be more beneficial if we find out how to open the doors with out resorting to force???

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
@CSO:  Scan the locking mechanism, Lt.

TO_Ens_Newind says:
@CSO/OPS: Could it have to do with the crystals ?

CO_Capt_Rofax says:
CNS: Which areas?

FCO_Ens_White says:
@CSO: it was an idea...a bad one at that.

FCO_Ens_White says:
@::Winces::

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
@TO:  It's possible.  Move out, see if any of these doors are unlocked.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
CO:  Decks 5, 7 and 12.  That includes sickbay, Sir.

FCO_Ens_White says:
@OPS: these doors are quite durable.

MO_Ens_Carter says:
::looks up at the lights as they go dark:: Self: Well isn't that just peachy...

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
:: backs out of the access hatch ... the left sleeve of his tunic is scorched up to the elbow :: EO: That was no fun. Do the dekyon emitters all check out?

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
@TO: That’s what I’m thinking, but we're not to do anything that that ship up there could detect. Lets just see if there isn’t something nearby that suggests a way through.

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
@::looks with amused sympathy:: FCO:  So it would seem.

EO_Daimien says:
CEO: I'm calibrating the phase liner relationships of the emitter now. We're within the 5 attohertz you requested

CO_Capt_Rofax says:
CNS: I noticed that....  *CEO* Lt.... we have a situation.  What's causing this power loss?

TO_Ens_Newind says:
@OPS: Aye! ::goes through checking the doors::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::tries to restore emergency power to sickbay::

EO_Daimien says:
::notes the power loss and investigates::

MO_Ens_Carter says:
*Bridge*: Bridge this is Dr. Carter, as much as I love working in the dark....

FCO_Ens_White says:
@CSO: we could beam into the rooms with the shuttle's transporter.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
*MO*:  We're working on it.

EO_Daimien says:
CEO: We've got three decks without power

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
*CO*: Sir, I may have inadvertently tripped the EPS breakers while diverting power to the dekyon emitters. We do have the anti-polaron subroutines for Shield Control online. We'll check the power outage immediately.

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
@FCO:  And at the same time alert the Dominion ship of our presence on this planet ...

FCO_Ens_White says:
@::Shifts his weight and swears then winces::

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
@FCO: Would give us away to the Dominion. So not right now, but maybe when that ship is gone.

Host Cat says:
Action: The Dominion Ship is now in phaser range of the ship.

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
@::looks at the CSO:: CSO:  What about those crystals ... did anyone think to try them?

TO_Ens_Newind says:
@::walks up to a door with a green crystal and touches it::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::tries again to re-route some power to sickbay::

EO_Daimien says:
 CEO: 5...7...and 12. We've lost sickbay in the process. Checking for the source of the loss now

MO_Ens_Carter says:
::sits back while he waits for power::

Host Cat says:
Action: The door slides upwards with a hiss.

CO_Capt_Rofax says:
*CEO* The modifications I can accept for cause.  However, I cannot leave Sickbay without power....

TO_Ens_Newind says:
@::jumps back::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::hears a beep from the tactical consoles::

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
@::looks around the room for any kind of crystals that seem to match with the colours of the ones over the room::

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
*CO*: Yes, sir. We're on it.

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
@OPS: Just looking now.

TO_Ens_Newind says:
@ALL: Hey, check it out.

FCO_Ens_White says:
@::looks around and mutters::Ops:oh...yah.

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
:: turns to a second console and reconfigures it for EPS control ::

CO_Capt_Rofax says:
::sends the order to A_OPS to establish emergency power in Sickbay::

Host Cat says:
Action: The room in front of Newind seems to be a courtroom of some sort....high benches surrounding a central gallery.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::softly::  CO:  Captain... the Dominion ship is in weapons range.

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
@::looks to the TO:: TO: Good work. ::heads over to the door and looks in::

CO_Capt_Rofax says:
CNS: Have their tactical sensors gone active?

MO_Ens_Carter says:
::wonders if he should start a campfire::

FCO_Ens_White says:
@::looks at the TO::TO: Now why couldn't I think of that?

TO_Ens_Newind says:
@Self: Bingo

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
@::looks around:: FCO:  Can you walk?

Host Cat says:
Action: The power returns to the impacted decks.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
CO:  I'd have to scan them again to be sure.  ::looks at the CO for direction::

EO_Daimien says:
::attempts to reconfigure the main power allocation to restore power to sickbay::

FCO_Ens_White says:
@OPS: I'll manage.

Host Cat says:
Action: Decks 2, 3, and 9 lose power.

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
@ALL: Looks like a court room maybe. Lets have a closer look. ::enters room::

TO_Ens_Newind says:
@FCO: Dunno

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
EO: That's done it. Good work, Ensign.  :: looks again :: Frell! What now?

MO_Ens_Carter says:
::sees his nurses sitting, just as calm as they can be::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::looks back to the OPS console as it alarms again::

FCO_Ens_White says:
@::Stands up and puts some weight on his foot::

TO_Ens_Newind says:
@::follows the CSO::

EO_Daimien says:
CEO: We're losing power all over the place...it's cascading

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
CO:  We've lost power on three more decks.

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
@CSO:  Courts have records .... ::assists the FCO to walk towards the room::

CO_Capt_Rofax says:
CNS: It may be the death of us, but please commence.... passive scans only.

EO_Daimien says:
CEO: 2, 3 and 9 are down also

FCO_Ens_White says:
@::Curses and looks at the OPS::

Host Cat says:
Action: The room is large and empty. On the table is a large box and a couple of diskettes.

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
@::tries to look everywhere at once, at the benches, the walls, the ceiling, and everything::

FCO_Ens_White says:
@Ops: It is my fault Ma'am. I'll live.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::initiates passive scans of the Dominion vessel::

TO_Ens_Newind says:
@::moves to the table and picks up a disk::

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
@OPS: True. I wonder if there is a room leading out of her, or maybe a consol to the local computer system.

MO_Ens_Carter says:
::updates the crewman's file that left not long ago::

Host Cat says:
Action: The disk is just that, it appears to be a data disk of some sort.

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
@:: helps the FCO to sit then heads to where the TO is::

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
EO: I see that.   :: taps the console furiously ::   Bring the stochastic predictor module for the EPS routing program online. Maybe we can get ahead of the cascade.

EO_Daimien says:
:: runs a passive trace resonance pulse through the system, looking for the source of the power loss::

FCO_Ens_White says:
@::tries to refuse the Ops' help::

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
@::notices the TO:: TO:What have you got there?? ::walks over to the TO::

EO_Daimien says:
CEO: I'm trying to head it off...::works furiously fast::

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
@::takes one of the disks:: CSO:  These look like old-fashioned data recording devices.  Let's see if we can find something that can read them.

TO_Ens_Newind says:
CSO: Seems to be a disk.

FCO_Ens_White says:
@::lips on his own muttering::OPS: I'm fine, I'm fine.

Host Cat says:
Action: The passive scan pinpoints the problem is in the tachyon emitter relays subhyper terminal.

TO_Ens_Newind says:
@CSO: If we can find a console...

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
@::turns:: FCO:  Sure you are.

EO_Daimien says:
CEO: Prioritizing sickbay in case of battle. I have No clue....wait...its the tachyon emitter causing the problem

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
EO: Ah HA! See that?

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
@::looks at the box beside the disks:: TO: Wonder what this is??

Host Cat says:
Action: There are twenty-five disks in the pile on the table.

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
@::pokes the box::

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
EO: Yup. Take it offline. We'll repair it once we've dealt with the Dominion ship.

FCO_Ens_White says:
@::leans on the table and looks at the debris::

TO_Ens_Newind says:
@::tries to open the box::

Host Cat says:
Action: The box is solid metal. Silver in color. Has no obvious openings.

EO_Daimien says:
CEO: The subhyper  relay terminal is responsible

TO_Ens_Newind says:
@Self: Never mind

CO_Capt_Rofax says:
*CEO* I can live with no power on Decks 2 and 3, but we need to get Deck 7 back.  Status?

EO_Daimien says:
CEO: Want me to climb into the Jeffries tube and have a look?

FCO_Ens_White says:
@::looks at the box for distinctive markings::

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
@ALL: Damn I wish we could do some scanning of this place. But better safe then dead I guess

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
@CSO:  Any guesses?  ::points to the box::

Host Cat says:
Action: Nothing happens when Toms pokes the box.

MO_Ens_Carter says:
Replicator: Coffee...black.

EO_Daimien says:
::takes the emitter off line::

EO_Daimien says:
CEO: Done.

TO_Ens_Newind says:
@::turns the box over::

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
@::looks to see if there is anywhere the disk could go into the box::

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
EO: Good. Power looks like it is stabilizing.

Host Cat says:
Action: The bottom appears the same as the rest.

Host Cat says:
Action: There are no holes in the box.

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
@OPS: I’m guessing it may be the console we're looking for, but it needs to be powered up somehow.

TO_Ens_Newind says:
 @::pushes a disk at the box::

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
*CO*: It's the tachyon emitter relay, Sir. We're taking it offline until it can be repaired.

MO_Ens_Carter says:
::grabs his coffee, taking a sip::

EO_Daimien says:
CEO: I have restored power to sickbay

FCO_Ens_White says:
@::considers kicking the box for the fun of it...maybe break his other toe, balance it off::

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
EO: Excellent.

Host Cat says:
Action: All of the decks come back online.

EO_Daimien says:
CEO: Still working on the ....guess that fixed it. We're green across the board again

Host Cat says:
Action: However, the ship loses its artificial gravity.

FCO_Ens_White says:
@::decides against it::

Host Cat says:
Action: The box remains motionless.

EO_Daimien says:
::floats away, grabbing a handhold:: CEO: Dang it!

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
EO: Very nice work tracing that fault, Ensign. Get back to ME and... :: begins to rise from the floor :: Damn!

MO_Ens_Carter says:
::sees things starting to float:: Oh for gripe sake!!

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::grabs onto the OPS console to try and keep from floating off::

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
*CEO* Shut it down and get a damage assessment.... I want to know if any other systems were affected....  ::feels himself float::  besides the gravity that is.....  ::frowns::

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
@::decides to look around:: CSO/TO:  Look around ... see if there are any other rooms.

EO_Daimien says:
CEO: I get sick in zero G

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
@::looks around for any crystals that appear to be free or just sitting around::

FCO_Ens_White says:
<FCO_Black> Floats away from the helm swinging his arms around wildly::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
CO:  Sir, zero G makes me nauseous.

MO_Ens_Carter says:
::watches his coffee float away::

TO_Ens_Newind says:
@ALL: I'll be back. ::heads out of the room and to another door::

TO_Ens_Newind says:
@::touches the crystal::

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
CNS: Can I get you anything to help?

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
:: flips, shoves off the ceiling, and grabs the console on his way down :: Self: It never rains but it pours...

EO_Daimien says:
:;grabs another hand hold and gets to the consol:: CEO: Looking at the problem now

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
CO:  Gravity restored would be good, Sir.

EO_Daimien says:
::runs another diagnostic::

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
CNS: Novel thought.... anything else Counselor?

FCO_Ens_White says:
@::looks at the box and the diskettes::

MO_Ens_Carter says:
Self: What's next.....a Stigmata!!

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
@::tosses the box to the FCO:: FCO:  See if you can figure out what this is ... ::grins::

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
*CO*: Bridge, we're on the gravity problem. I'm beginning to think we took more damage coming through the wormhole than we suspected.

EO_Daimien says:
:: attempts to restore gravity::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::keeps anchored to the OPS terminal::  CO:  If I could just stop drifting around...

Host Cat says:
Action: Power was restored, you just have no gravity.

MO_Ens_Carter says:
::the nurses laugh:: MO: This is kind of fun...

FCO_Ens_White says:
@::catches the box, his weight coming off his arms and going to his feet::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::tries to read the data from the scans from his awkward position::

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
@OPS: Maybe there is a power relay or a generator somewhere. I reckon that these crystals are a power source, so maybe we can plug one into the box to get it to work

Host Cat says:
Action: The box is very heavy.

FCO_Ens_White says:
@::Swears and looks at the box::

EO_Daimien says:
CEO: There seems to be something in the deck plating causing it

Host Cat says:
Action: It breaks the poor FCO's pinky.

FCO_Ens_White says:
@::Puts the box on the table::

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
*CEO* Let's control the failures systematically... I want gravity back, but do not sacrifice the SIF.  Shutdown the EPS to non-essential areas if necessary....

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
CO:  The Dominion cruiser doesn't appear to have detected us.  And there is 1200 dead crew on board.  ::wonders what killed them::

FCO_Ens_White says:
@::Swears again::

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
EO: Shut down nonessential systems until we get this bug nailed down. I'm thinking we have undetected damage.

EO_Daimien says:
::attempts to restore gravity by shunting auxiliary power to the deck plating::

FCO_Ens_White says:
@::looks at his hand and swears violently::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::suspects it was motion sickness::

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
@::nods:: CSO:  We can try.

MO_Ens_Carter says:
*Bridge*: Are we running some engineering experiments today??

EO_Daimien says:
CEO: Aye Sir, shutting down non-essentials

EO_Daimien says:
::shuts them down::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
*MO*:  We're still working on it.

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
:: runs diagnostic on EPS control systems ::

FCO_Ens_White says:
@Self: how do I explain this to the nurses...

CSO_Lt_Toms says:
@::again tries to find a crystal to plug into the box::

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
CNS: Run a full-scan for signs of battle and hull integrity.  Let's find out how long they have been here.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::tries to recall if there are any antigravity boots stored on the bridge::

TO_Ens_Newind says:
@::touches the crystal again::

Host Cat says:
Action: The EPS system is slightly of kilter.

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
CO:  I'll..... try.... Sir....  ::reaches down and taps a few buttons.

FCO_Ens_White says:
@::pulls out his tricorder with his left hand and tries to scan the box one handed::

EO_Daimien says:
CEO: It's the EPS grid. I'll try and restore it

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
@::looks around the room for any doors that could lead to other rooms::

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
::floats over the RR door and reaches into a cubby retrieving two pair of antigravity boots::

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
EO: Look at this.  :: gestures to screen ::  Purge the EPS control program, and reload it from protected backup.

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
::floats back over::  CNS: Here.... ::hands the CNS a pair::

EO_Daimien says:
::makes an adjustment to the EPS Grid, the purges the control program and reloads it:: CEO: Working on it now

Host Cat says:
Action: The tricorder does not "see" the box.

TO_Ens_Newind says:
@::moves to another door and touches the crystal::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
::squints down at the readout::  CO:  The cruiser is at least ten years old and shows no signs of battle damage.  ::notices some boots go floating by::

Host CO_Capt_Rofax says:
CNS: Good.  ::pauses::  Have you detected anything out of sorts with the vessel?

@::takes a last look at the courthouse, then helps the OPS and FCO::

CNS_Cmdr_Luchena says:
CO:  Other than that the whole crew is dead, no Sir.

CEO_LtJG_Thraxis says:
MO: Yes, sorry about that. I think my little accident started an EPS cascading failure. Those are the very devil to repair.

OPS_LtCmdr_Pettigrove says:
@Self:  I wonder who lived here ...

FCO_Ens_White says:
@::Looks at Jordan, and nodds::Ops: thank you.
