USS Sharikahr - SD 10504.21
Host Gilles says:
The USS Sharikahr chased Silek's Sharikahr toward Qo'nos.  The Klingons were notified about the vessel and sent three ships to intercept.  After firing on both Shari's, they focus their attack on Silek once the "right" Sharikahr fired on him as well.  Finding tri-cobalt devices by a scan, Silek and his ship were destroyed.  The resulting shockwave destroyed one Klingon ship and damaged the "right" Sharikahr and other Klingon ships in the area.

CO_Capt_Cephas says:
::hovers back onto the bridge... though not blatantly obvious... one can tell she has been crying::
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
::is working on a patient in sickbay::
Duty OPS says:
CO: Ma'am I have just sent a message to the Klingon ships... or what is left of them... and offered assistance.
Duty CTO says:
::scans the other ships for a status report::
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
::sees the Captain enter and moves to settle into her own seat:: CO: Everything okay Captain?
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
::nods to the OPS and then turns towards her XO::
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
XO: I just received word of the passing of a close friend of mine, Commander.
EO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
*XO*: Repairs progressing.  First priority is the shields and the engines.
EO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
::picks up a new relay and replaces the fried one::
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
::has to close her eyes briefly to maintain her wall around her emotions::
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
::moves from patient to patient, weeding out the less needy.::
OPS_Mikey says:
CO: Captain, I have a message from the Klingons.  They report..."We are fine...we don't need no help."
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
CO: I understand Ma'am.  Times like that makes Starfleet life difficult.
Host SO_S`cnr says:
::frowns:: Self: Weird.
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
::nods to the Duty OPS::  OPS: Then prepare the update for Star Fleet and send it off.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
*EO* Understood.  Keep things moving and let us know as repairs are completed.
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
::nods to her XO::
OPS_Mikey says:
CO: Yes Ma'am.  Preparing the message now. ::turns back to compile the data for Starfleet::
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
*EO/CMO*: How are you two holding together down there?
EO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
*XO*: Understood sir.  
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
XO: Have you scanned the area for our missing object?
Host SO_S`cnr says:
::frowns:: Out loud: This is too weird.... XO: Ma'am?
EO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
*CO*: We are getting along quite well ma'am.
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
Duty Nurse: Get out in the hallway and organize the injured, most severe first, minimal last!
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
::hears the SO but leaves it for her XO to deal with::
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
SO: What is it Ensign?
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
::tries to turn but is in too much pain so she stands::
Host SO_S`cnr says:
XO: Ma'am... we have two possibilities... either the sensors need recalibrating... or I am detecting higher levels of neutrinos in the area.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
SO: Can you isolate the area? ::walks slowly toward the science station::
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
::hears the word neutrinos and turns around in her chair::
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
*CO*: I'm a bit too busy to talk right now Captain, I'll be back with you in about 24 hours.
EO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
::runs a scan on the relay and is happy that it is functioning and moves on to he next job::
Host SO_S`cnr says:
XO: Near..........::pauses::  I mean dead center of where the Shari......... I mean the other...  detonated.
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
::frowns not liking the sound of that::
EO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
*Engineering*: Run a diagnostic of the power relays.  I have fixed the last one just now.
Engineering says:
*EO*: Understood Ma'am.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
::her eyes grow wide and she spins around:: CO: Captain, I need to speak with you in private please.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
SO: Continue the scans.  Look for anything.  The neutrinos moving slightly as if they are being emitted from something adrift for starters.
Duty_TO says:
CO: Ma'am the Klingons are sitting there pretty much like we are as far as their damages go.
EO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
Self:  We got the crap kicked out of us and oh what have we got here?
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
::looks at her XO and then nods to the Ready Room::
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
SO: You have the bridge.
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
::hovers into the ready room::
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
::follows the CO and waits for the Ready room door to close::
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
XO: What is it?
Host SO_S`cnr says:
::wants to say "I WHAT?"::   XO: Aye Ma'am.
Host SO_S`cnr says:
::studies the sensor readings::
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
CO: Captain, just because that ship exploded, it doesn't mean the cloak was destroyed.  If they had something on that ship, like a shuttle, and it was phased...::trails off::
EO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
Self: Hm.... ::looks at the chamber hatch::  Out loud: Augusfratt!!!!!!! Bloody thing is cracked.
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
Obscure Crewman: ::yelling:: Get out of my sickbay unless you are on your death bed!
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
CO: I may have failed you in believing this mission was over Ma'am.  We may still have a thief on our hands.
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
::her eyes flash wide:: XO: You are absolutely right.
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
XO: Ok we need to catch him now...
Host SO_S`cnr says:
Self: What the.......  ::makes a detailed scan of the area::
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
CO: We knew the signature of the other ship so we could search.  What's the chances it's showing the same here?
Host SO_S`cnr says:
Computer: How big is the anomaly currently on my sensor?
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
XO: I would say that the chances that our shuttles and smaller crafts might have the same signature with the various::
Host Computer says:
SO: Zero point 5 millimeters and expanding.
Host SO_S`cnr says:
ACTION: The crewman faints in the corridor
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
Nurse: Get him on a biobed!
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
::nods:: CO: That's a start.  I'll work with the SO on scanning for those signatures if those neutrinos emissions move.
Host SO_S`cnr says:
Self: Mertz !   XO: Ma'am... we have a problem.
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
::nods and hears the SO... moves back to the bridge::
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
::grabs the crewman and gets him on the biobed and begins scanning him over::
EO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
::looks again::  Self: Blasted lens has a hair of all things on it.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
::steps back onto the bridge:: SO: What is it?
Host SO_S`cnr says:
*XO*: We have.....  Ummmmmm... a hole  ::shows sensor reading on main viewer::
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
::hears the SO:: XO: They may have been trying to open a door...  SO: Can we close it?
EO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
Self:  Whew!! For a second there it looked as if the bloody thing was cracked.
EO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
*CO/XO*: New ETA on repairs.
Host SO_S`cnr says:
CO: Close it? I have no idea how they opened it!  I mean... I'll get right on it Ma'am
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
*EO*: Go ahead
EO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
*CO/XO*: Power systems looking good so far.  Should have shields shortly.  Propulsion in 45 minutes.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
CO: They may have known they were caught and tried to get home. ::moves to the auxiliary station and begins scanning the area for the signatures matching their shuttles::
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
::injects the crewman with nano-surgeons and begins to guide them to fix the internal bleeding::
Host SO_S`cnr says:
::shivers:: CO: Ma'am.... it's definitely the tri-cobalt devices that were the cause... some kind of pseudo-wormhole is forming....  but the readings are wrong... this is going elsewhere... I think
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
XO: A possibility.... but why send one ship on a suicide mission when they could make a way to send a whole fleet.
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
SO: Are we in danger in our current location from it?
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
CO: Maybe there wasn't a fleet to send.  Perhaps this was all Silek's doing from the start.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
::scans the debris fields for biological material::
EO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
::drops the hyper spanner:: Self: Augusfratt!!
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
XO: What do you mean?
Host SO_S`cnr says:
::shakes head:: CO: Not even close... it's still so small.... maybe 1 millimeter now.... but.... I'm not sure of the expansion rate yet.
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
SO: Keep on it.
EO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
::takes the magnetic seal and pushes it into place and reconnects it to the plasma conduit::
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
CO: Captain, there is no biological matter in the debris field.  No signs that the crew of the alternate Sharikahr died.
EO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
::pulls out her tricorder and runs several scans to make sure there are no leaks and finds none::
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
::continues scanning for signs of a phased ship::
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
OPS: Send a new update to HQ... they will want to know about this.
OPS_Mikey says:
CO: Sending now Ma'am.
OPS_Mikey says:
::sends the new material to Starfleet::
EO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
Self:  Ok scans say no leaks.  ::backs out of the warp injection system and picks up her tools and heads to engineering::
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
XO: Could the biological components been burnt up completely?
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
::completes the surgery and begins to clean up the blood that bled out::
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
SO: Ever get a fix on where the other side of that wormhole might be?
EO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
::walks into engineering and heads for the big board::  All: Ok lets begin to warm up the core but slowly.
Host SO_S`cnr says:
SO: Ummmmm.... best guess..... not in this universe Ma'am.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
CO: For 12 people?  It is possible but I doubt it.
EO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
::watches the plasma flow and the power grids as they slowly build up::
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
SO: Start prepping a probe... if this thing gets big enough I want to send one through it.
EO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
::shakes her head up and down in hopefulness::  Self:  Come on baby come on that is it that is the way.  Yes come on old girl.
Host SO_S`cnr says:
CO: It'll be a bit.... 1.2 millimeters.... this is SLLLLLOW....    but the probe will be ready Ma'am
Duty_Nurse says:
CMO: Doctor the severe have all been treated. I am sending in the mild cases now.
EO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
*CO/XO*: Sirs, power is slowly coming back to shields and engines.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
::rubs her neck and continues to read the scans carefully::
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
::hovers over to the XO::  *EO*: Thank you.
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
XO: This isn't making any sense...
EO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
::continues to watch her board in anticipation of finally getting the power restored quickly::
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
XO: If there is a phased ship out there how are we going to find it?
EO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
Self:  Come on baby. Come on old girl.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
CO: Believe me, I know.  If it's out there, then we need to find how to track that cloak.
EO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
*CO*: Power is almost half way sir.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
CO: Were you given a way to track the actual device?
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
::doesn't see any signs on cloaks in the area::
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
XO: You have seen everything that they gave me.
EO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
::still watching the boards, she is happy with what she sees::
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
Duty Nurse: Take over a moment. I need a minute. ::walks into his office::
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
CO: Then we need to get a hold of someone who can give more information.  I am uncertain who would be in range for a communication.
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
XO: I will see what I can find out. ::start to move off to her ready room::  You have the bridge Commander.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
::feels a wave of dizziness and heads to sit back down at her station:: SO: Check for anything resembling that original Vulcan ship and warp signature.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
CO: Aye Ma'am.
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
::sits down in his chair.:: Self: If that is all for the severe, there must be a lot of deceased.
Host SO_S`cnr says:
::nods:: XO: Aye Ma'am
EO_Lt_Running_Horse says:
*CO*:  Sir power is now at 70%.
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
*CO*: Doctor Cartwright to the Captain.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
Self: Missing...what are we missing?  A ship steals the device and throws us into a time loop.  Then it uses an explosion to push us both into another quantum reality.  Our doubles are waiting and escape with the device back here and warp to Qo'nos.  They destroy the ship with tri-cobalt devices to make us think they are dead.
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
::moves behind her desk and activates her console::  Computer: Give me a list of contact personnel for Star Fleet Intelligence that is with in range of our comms.  Authorization Pi Delta Gamma 236
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
Self: Now, they are who knows where for who knows what reason, in who knows what vessel.  Why?  Why? ::tries to concentrate on the mystery::
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
::presses the button on his console again:: *CO*: Doctor Cartwright to the Captain.
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
*CMO*: Go ahead.
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
*CO*: All of the severely wounded have been treated.  Do we have a total on the deceased?
Host Computer says:
CO: 3 Starfleet Officers records fit the described query. Names now being displayed on console.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
Computer: Analyze the debris field from the alternate Sharikahr.  Assuming it matches our own vessel in every detail except crew, extrapolate what percentage of the vessel or support craft is missing.
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
::picks the most senior of the officers from the list:: *CMO* I have not been informed of the total as of yet.
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
*CO*: Keep me posted. Sickbay out.
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
::orders the computer to open a comm to Captain Mackenzie Plrcm::
Host Computer says:
XO: Analysis complete... no appreciable percentage of vessel is missing
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
::leaves his desk to return to treating wounded::
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
::swears in Klingon::  Computer: Recall scans of the same vessel in the alternate universe.  Was there anything that did not match our own vessel?
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
::rubs her neck::  Self: I've got to stay away from Science consoles. ::groans::
Host Computer says:
XO: Vessel phaser output was 129% , torpedo yield stronger by 180%, warp engine operating at 129% of this vessel specs
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
::as she waits for the comm to connect her eyes wonder over her desk and fall upon her wedding picture.  In the holo-picture standing next to the bride was... Mia Clooney.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
Computer: Okay, let us try this again.  On the other Sharikahr, was there anything that may have been used by her crew of 12 to escape before the tri-cobalt explosion?
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
::wishes the computer had a holographic interface so she could ring it's neck::
Host Computer says:
XO: Insufficient information to answer your query.
