CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
CO: its diameter is 15 kilometers ma'am
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
*CO*: Captain, I apologize my absence... Something came up. But I'm on my way back.
Host CO_Fowler says:
::Nods at Thorne:: CTO: Good, that's a start
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
CO: Yes ma'am
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
*TO*: Toir, how are things down there?
Host CO_Fowler says:
*XO*: I understand, Jyg.
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
::steps into the TL::  *CO*: Thank you, Captain. Ahkileez out.
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
TL: Bridge.
TO_Lt_Naug says:
*CTO*: Things are ready down here, sir. Teams are prepared for the Captain's orders if she so chooses, sir.
CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::gets up and straightens his uniform, looking out the window at the planet below::
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
*TO*: OK Toir, sit tight for a few more until we know what we're facing
TO_Lt_Naug says:
*CTO* yes sir
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
CO: Alpha and Beta teams ready for duty ma'am
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
::puts on his "game face" and steps out on the bridge::
Host CO_Fowler says:
::Mutters to herself:: Self: Hmmmm, air...breathable, they seem to want us to be at 'home'
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
::walks down to the command area and lowers his voice:: CO: What's going on?
Host CO_Fowler says:
CTO: Good, Cmdr.  We'll try to keep things as close to normal as possible
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
CO: Yes ma'am ::half smiling to himself::
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
CO: You mean as "normal" as it ever gets for us?
Host CO_Fowler says:
::Looks up at Jyg's approach:: XO:  Nothing much has changed, Jyg.  We found out that the Dome is 15 KM in diameter. And it seems to be just made for us to enjoy
Host CO_Fowler says:
::Grins at Thorne:: CTO: Normal is boring, Thorne
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
CO: that's for sure ma'am
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
CO: What do perimeter scans show? We're completely sealed in?
CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::is about to leave his quarters when he remembers something that had totally slipped his mind in the chaos of the past weeks; he walks over to his desk and searches::
Host CO_Fowler says:
XO: It seems that way ::Calls up the scans on the SCI station::  At least we haven't found a crack, yet
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
::checks his perimeter scans when he hears the XO's question:: XO: Sir, we're completely sealed in... no airlocks, vents, ports, or any other openings
TO_Lt_Naug says:
*CTO* I’ve been monitoring the scans. How about cutting a hole with the phasers?
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
::glances at Thorne, then the Captain:: Can we make our own door? ::hints at fire control::
CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::finds the PADD he was looking for, the one containing all the data from Quectza. He looks at it for a few seconds::
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
*TO*: that's a very interesting idea Toir...hang on for a moment
Host CO_Fowler says:
XO: It could be possible, but I want additional scans run on the dome first.  Wouldn't do us any good if we fired and it bounced back at us
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
::nods:: CO: Aye-aye, sir.
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
XO: I don’t know if we're going to be able to cut through but it's worth a try sir...I don't think they'd encase us in anything our weapons could cut through
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
::moves over beside her at the Science station and brings up the finer sensors on the dorsal spine::
Host CO_Fowler says:
XO: We should get an AT ready to go out and take close-up scans
Host CO_Fowler says:
XO/CTO: That way we could get scans to compare with the ships scans
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
*TO*: Toir, we may be going out on AT's soon...Be ready when I give the word to meet them with either Alpha or Beta teams.....
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
CO: I agree ma'am....much better for us to get a "live" look at it sooner or later
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
CO: If you want, I can take out Toir and a team. We can check it out.
Host CO_Fowler says:
::Nods at Thorne::
CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::holds the PADD in his hands and walks over to the replicator, tossing it inside:: Computer... ::he pauses for a second:: Recycle. ::the PADD shimmers and disappears before his eyes::

ACTION: The Lights(Hologram) above the Sharikahr suddenly go out
Host CO_Fowler says:
::Hears a beep at the SCI Computer:: XO: Look at this
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
::sees the viewscreen go dark:: Self: What the...?
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
::sees a flicker in the dome:: CO/XO: Do you see this?  ::begins scanning the dome top immediately::
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
::looks at the console:: CO: What's that?
Host CO_Fowler says:
CTO/XO: Maybe their technology isn't as good as they want us to believe
CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::looks around as everything goes dark, he heads out of his quarters right away::
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
CO: Apparently not.
Host CO_Fowler says:
CTO/XO: Or else they don't want us to leave the ship?
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
::Gets readings of major subspace disturbances all "leaking" into the dome....CO: That is a good guess Captain
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
CTO: Raise shields, but angle them to keep them near the hull. We don't need the shields shorting out on this dome if we project them too far.
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
CO: I hate to say it, but that's not logical. Why build this dome, if they don't want us to go outside?
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
XO: Aye sir  Raising shields  ::angling them to keep them near the hull::
TO_Lt_Naug says:
::going over the scan data as it comes in from Tac::
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
XO: Shields up sir  ::they look ok so far::
Host CO_Fowler says:
XO: Have they acted logical? They have our technology, they have added to it, why keep us here?
CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
*XO* Maylen to Bridge, what's going on? ::making his way to Sickbay::
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
XO: Maybe after 500 years they can't think logically?
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
CTO: Deal with Doctor Maylen please.
Host CO_Fowler says:
CTO/XO: Something doesn't feel right here.  Too many questions and not nearly enough answers
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
CO: They have acted logically, all the way. Machines of their type are incapable of non-linear thought. Our races have shown repeated propensity for innovation. They are capitalizing on that.
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
XO: Aye sir *CMO*: Doctor, we're encountering a problem here with the dome we're encased in....it's not whole or it doesn't appear to be all at once
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
XO: a simple yes/no...no other possibilities if I remember binary correctly
Host CO_Fowler says:
XO: But, they have used our information and advanced it to a point that we may never catch up to it in our lifetimes.
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
CO: Ma'am that may be the key...maybe they've advanced themselves past their point of controlling what they've built?
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
CO: Then we must forget our training. ::shrugs::
CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::arrives in Sickbay and sits at his desk:: *CTO* Understood. I was concerned if there were any emissions or such that might threaten the health of the crew.
Host CO_Fowler says:
XO: And why give us a dome that promises us a paradise, then for it to have either problems or they don't want us to forget we are prisoners
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
*CMO*: at this time Doctor, I don't believe so, but I'll let you know immediately if it appears to
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
CO: The latter is more likely.
Host CO_Fowler says:

CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
*CTO* Thank you, Commander. Maylen out. ::accesses his monitor and takes a look at what's going on::
Host CO_Fowler says:
::Takes a deep breath and slowly releases it::  XO: Either way, I don't like this at all
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
::looks at the darkened viewport:: CO: Nor I. Perhaps we should reopen negotiations. Maybe they will "slip up"?
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
CO/XO: The Prime Directive would seem to have flown out the window in this case am I right?
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
CTO: Yes, the Prime Directive does not apply here.
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
CO/XO: I have an idea...its a little bit weird but it might be worth a try
Host CO_Fowler says:
::Sighing she puts the SCI station on continual scan and ties into her screen in her chair, then she moves to her chair:: XO: Might as well, Commander
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
CO: But before that, maybe we should hear him out... ::looks at Thorne::
Host CO_Fowler says:
::Looks over at Thorne:: CTO: Let's hear it
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
CO/XO: I am not sure this will work....but Emissary said they were keeping us here to come up with new ideas, right?  What if we designed something they haven't seen, but with a design flaw apparent to us that wouldn't be to them and one we could exploit?
Host CO_Fowler says:
::Glances at Jyg:: XO: Thoughts?
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
CO: It's a good idea.. but what would fit that bill? Federation Technology has not mastered Transwarp. Perhaps that?
Host CO_Fowler says:
XO: It could.  ::Rubs her chin:: CTO: What do you think, Thorne?
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
CO/XO: I think that would certainly grab their attention enough to be worth a try.
Host CO_Fowler says:
CTO/XO: Better have a back up idea, just in case.  Maybe something so old and outdated, but that we could put a spin on
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
CO: Yes ma'am.
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
CO: Yes ma'am
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
CTO: Get Doctor Maylen up here, please. We need to brainstorm and he has field experience.
Host CO_Fowler says:
XO/CTO: But be careful using the computers, they might be able to monitor them without us knowing it.
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
XO: Yes sir *CMO*: Dr. Maylen would you report to the bridge please?
CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::gets up, he was listening in after all, and starts out of sickbay:: *CTO* All ready on my way.
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
CO: I suggest we adjourn to the conference room, Captain. We may have to dig through he old data files for restricted technology. ::looks around at the junior crew::
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
CO/XO: I'd like Toir's input on this too... maybe something Klingon would grab their attention
Host CO_Fowler says:
XO: Good idea.  Do it
CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::enters a TL and instructs it to the bridge::
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
CO/XO: and Toir was CEO of the Nighthawk when we first left Spacedock
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
CTO: Please come with me. ::heads toward the conference room on the starboard side::
Host CO_Fowler says:
CTO: I would rather give Toir the Conn, Thorne.  We can fill him in after and then get his input.
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
XO: Aye sir ::follows XO::
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
CO: Yes ma'am
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
*TO*: Toir report to the bridge please
Host CO_Fowler says:
CTO: But we'll let him know what we're planning and he can brainstorm out here
TO_Lt_Naug says:
*CTO* on my way    :: heads for the TL and goes up to the bridge::
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
CO: Aye ma'am I'm sure he will be happy to help ::Smiling::
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
::heads onto the conference room:: Computer: Access Starfleet Engineering records on technology. Status: Canceled.
CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::arrives on the bridge and walks out of the TL::
TO_Lt_Naug says:
::arrives on the bridge and exits TL::
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
XO: We'll need something like Transwarp...something we can build a backdoor into?
CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::walks towards the conference room and runs into Lt. Naug on the way:: TO: Lieutenant.
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
CTO: Something we can build a backdoor in to, or something that ultimately does not work as advertised.
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
::walks around the table and keys the display on the wall to start scrolling the data::
Host CO_Fowler says:
::Motions for Toir to come over to her chair and fills him in on what the plan is.  Also tells him about having SCI on continual scan and it being tied into her chairs screen::
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
XO: and something worthy of their really wanting it
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
::glances at him:: CTO: Phased cloak? They might perfect that for us... ::smiles::
TO_Lt_Naug says:
CMO: excuse me Doc     :: understands everything the captain explains and sits down::
CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::walks into the conference room and sits down::
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
XO: That's an idea ::smiling:: Giving them something we needed worked out ::shaking his head::
Host CO_Fowler says:
TO: You will have the Conn, LT.  But I want you to be thinking of anything that we might be able to use against those computers out there
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
CTO: Worth a shot. ::smiles:: But let's concentrate on non-Federation ideas. What has failed repeatedly? Romulan QS drives?
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
XO: That's a good start sir
TO_Lt_Naug says:
CO: Yes ma'am. I might come up with something. I have something already but I need to think about it
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
CMO: Did the Fermi's engineer have any nifty ideas that did not pan out?
Host CO_Fowler says:
TO: Good, but be careful about the computer use, they may be able to scan us as well
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
XO: Aye sir
TO_Lt_Naug says:
CO: I don't need one ma'am, I have my head for this
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
XO: Sure wish we had a back up to LCARS we could use
Host CO_Fowler says:
::Nods and smiles at Toir, then heads to the Conference Room::
CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::nods:: XO: It was the war, we were looking for anything... ah... yes, once there was something about a subspace fold drive, a way to travel faster at warp without actually doing so.
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
::shrugs:: CTO: It wouldn't matter. They would have found that too.
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
::perks up:: CMO: Was there problems with it?
Host CO_Fowler says:
::Enters the Conference room to find her crew deep in discussion::
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
::glances at the Captain but turns back to the little conference::
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
XO: You're right...::listening to Dr. Maylen:: that sounds even more like something a machine race would be interested in
TO_Lt_Naug says:
::starts to think of a idea::  Self: there must be a way to integrate Klingon technology to Federation in one device, that confuse them
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
CTO: Exactly... maybe we can let their thirst for efficiency be their undoing.
CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
::frowns a little in thought:: XO: As I recall, the premise would be to actually push the whole ship into a 'shallow' subspace layer and allow it to travel there until the drive was disengaged... trouble was... ah... the field generators weren’t
Host CO_Fowler says:
::Sits at head of the table and listens::
CMO_LtCmdr_Maylen says:
<Cont.> The field generators weren't powerful to push a Nebula Class starship into the layer, and the precision needed to get and stay there was extremely precise,
CTO_LtCmdr_Knight says:
CMO: Dr...can you sort of sketch it out without using the computer yet?
TO_Lt_Naug says:
::jumps up::  Outloud: I think I got it!  ::thinking to himself::  Cloaking, that should do it, but in a way for them to go.
Host XO_Cmdr_Ahkileez says:
CTO/CMO: Work on that. Replicate some paper. Keep it out of the LCARS.
Host CO_Fowler says:
CTO/XO/CMO: Get some paper from the replicator
Host CO_Fowler says:
::Glances at Jyg:: XO: Great minds hmmmm?
