Space, the final frontier...These are the adventures of the USS Sharikahr in her continuing mission to bring peace where conflicts may arise, to explore new worlds untouched by the eyes of men, and to brave the darkness of the last vast, unknown.
Stranded in an alien universe where they do not belong, their consciences stripped from their body and imprisoned as software in the most advanced computer ever built, the crew of the USS Sharikahr is confronted with life or death decisions.
Will they decide to help Ozymandias by stopping the renegade Cardassians? Will they simply watch the events unfold risking to not go back to the 24th century? Or will they find a third solution that will save the day?
In the meanwhile the Cardassians are getting closer. Their mission is clear:  overcoming the computer's defenses and enslave the 24th century Partholians by controlling the Black Ship in the future.
Alas, temporal displacements are never easy things to deal with, even by the most experienced officers.

CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
::rubs eyes tiredly::
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
CO: It's all quite interesting, Captain.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
XO: I'm hoping that "interesting" will solve our situation this time.  Do you require additional assistance?
TO_Ens_T`Lorn says:
::having just brought the lieutenant up to speed on their current situation, including both the realization that they are not actually physically... here and the resulting logic of her inaction regarding their former helmsman, she sits, watches, and waits... just like everyone else::
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
::Considers getting a Raktajino, but since she really isn't here, and the coffee isn't either, what's the point? So stays at her station::
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
::looks over at T`Lorn, now understanding her reasoning::
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
:: Fumes in sickbay, not wanting to be seen with her eyes still red from crying::
Host Ozymandias says:
COM: CO: Did you take your decision Captain?
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
CO: Well according to what we have been given. Ozymandias is correct. We are not here. As to solving the problem it comes down to what one believes about messing with a timeline.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
COM: Ozymandias: I believe that we have.  What is required to defeat the Cardassians?
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
::looks over sensors::
Host Ozymandias says:
COM: CO: Energy, all we need is for you to reactivate our ship. Give it a chance to fight the Cardassian intrusion.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
::wonders if he really is tired or if it`s all in his head::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Quietly listening as she runs through the acquired data.::
TO_Ens_T`Lorn says:
::unlike her human superior, has already decided tiredness is in the crew's heads, and chooses to ignore it::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
COM: Ozymandias: What type of energy system does your vessel operate on?  Are our systems compatible?
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
::smiles at T`Lorn::
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
CO: I'll go, Captain. Give me a little time to learn their systems and I can get them sorted out. I'll take Lt. Wall with me, we were both Engineers once.
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
:: Wipes her eyes, and fixes her uniform::
Host Ozymandias says:
COM: CO: Unfortunately not, but, once you will enter your ship you will find our ship easy to repair. What you will do in this virtual world, some advanced robots will do in the real world.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
::stands and straightens his jacket:::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
COM: Ozymandias: This energy will transfer as well?  I was to understand this was merely a simulation.  :: Tries to comprehend what Ozymandias is requesting ::  Once we enter our ship?
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
:: Leaves her office.  Quickly making sure there was an MO present, left for the bridge again.::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Quietly sends a comm the CMO::
Host Ozymandias says:
COM: CO: I cannot access the maintenance systems anymore; the computer memory is full of traps left by the Cardassians that do not allow me to move freely in the system.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
Self: Damn Cardie`s
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: quietly:: *CMO*: Doctor, I have some information you would be interested in.
TO_Ens_T`Lorn says:
::taps a control on her console, isolating a specific grid of the display that would almost appear from a tactical perspective to hold the fleet's flagship::
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
XO: The CTO and I both have Engineering and Tactical training, we can go, no need to risk the whole ship.
Host Ozymandias says:
COM: CO: But you can, because you were not considered by the Cardassians. Once you program the computer to repair the ship, the ship will repair itself and I will have the energy to send you home.
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
:: Stops just outside sickbay:: *CSO*: Go ahead... :: speaks low as well::
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
CO: Skipper, I concur with the commander
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
COM: Ozymandias: Then tell us how to reprogram the computer.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
::turns and looks at the CSO::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
*CMO*: I am going to send you some information on a rather... unusual virus, called the Crom Cruach.  Apparently, it is not unlike the black plague.
Host Ozymandias says:
COM: CO: You will have to realign what in this simulation look like bright red EPS conduits. They are in different part of the ship and you will need as many people as you can muster.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
OPS: You think that thing has a reset button?
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
CTO: It's never that easy.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
OPS: Just once I wish it would be
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
OPS: I appreciate your enthusiasm Commander, but we need to find out exactly what must be done first.
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
CTO: What, and spoil the ::makes air quotes:: fun and adventure of this?
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
:: Re-enters sickbay:: *CSO*: Send it on over to sickbay, I’ll take a look ASAP
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
XO/OPS: Commanders.  Begin organizing damage control teams.  CTO: Assign security details to escort.
Host Ozymandias says:
COM: ALL: And you better go there armed, The Cardassians have infected the system with some nasty programs.
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
XO: I wouldn't call it enthusiasm exactly, more like risk management. ::smirks::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Reaches over to send the relevant data.::  *CMO*: I am accessing our files to see if there is anything similar in our data base.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
CO: Aye sir
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
TO: Assign the security details
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
*OPS-wide*: All Operations personnel, draw phasers and toolkits for working on computer and mechanical systems, we have a ship to fix.
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
XO: Yes sir
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
:: Has a seat at her desk:: *CSO*: Looking now, give me a few minutes
Host Ozymandias says:
COM: CO: We have prepared a dock where you can dock your ship in our cargo bay if you want Captain.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
::Would like to frown as her board flashes red.::  *CMO*: I cannot find anything resembling a sentient virus.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
T`Lorn: Well T`Lorn you have Tactical.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
COM: Ozymandias: I would prefer to leave the Sharikahr mobile, in case of danger.  We will utilize our support craft.
TO_Ens_T`Lorn says:
CTO: Aye, lieutenant. ::pulls up a personnel roster, and orders 3 of the standby patrol units to mobilize, drawing equipment for possibly repelling intruders::
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
:: Looks over the data::
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
*Engineering*: I need you to jury rig some scanners to lock in on the readings given by damaged  EPS conduits.
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
CO: None of it is real, Captain, we can walk there and back.
Host Ozymandias says:
COM: CO: As you wish Captain.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
TO: Have them draw Tactical suits.
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
:: Runs the data through the medical database::
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
OPS: Well commander once more unto the breach
TO_Ens_T`Lorn says:
CTO: The order has already been issued, sir. ::raises a curious eyebrow that, were she not Vulcan, would almost say 'What did you expect?'::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
Polo: Activate several shuttles and have them land on the black vessel at the designated coordinates in order to act as end-points for transporter relays.
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
OPS: It may not be "real" but how often has it been proven that given the right set of circumstances your mind can convince you to die.
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
CTO: Indeed, no rest for the wicked or the weary, and they got us on both counts, eh? ::winks::
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
OPS: Don’t they just
Host Ozymandias says:
<Polo> CO: Aye sir, I will have all available pilots send the shuttles at the specific coordinates.
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
XO: I've been through Special Forces and other operative teams I am not at freedom to divulge, Commander, my mind is plenty tough. CTO: Shall we?
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
:: raises an eyebrow at the Operations Manager ::  OPS: As fascinated as I would be to see you demonstrate that, it might be prudent to use our standard systems, in order to not disorient the crew.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: watches her screen as various models appear.:: *CMO*: Its modus operandi is to be able to adapt its RNA to any form of carbon based life... :: lifts a brow::  We do have other types of life in our galaxy.  I am curious about them.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
OPS: After you commander
Host Ozymandias says:
COM: ALL: I am transmitting the coordinates of the relays that need to be repaired to your computer and to all your PADD's.
TO_Ens_T`Lorn says:
::logs out of the secondary station, and moves to the primary as lieutenant Wall makes to leave::
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
CO: Do you want me on one of the shuttle, Captain?
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
::heads for the TL::
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
::Checks the PADD for the coordinates and orientates herself to the black ship and where she needs to go::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
XO: I would like you to organize the teams from on site.
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
*CSO*: It’s interesting alright.  Viruses are not my expertise, but even I know that’s not normal.
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
::Focuses her thoughts on the coordinates and "wills" herself to move there, just like when she returned to the ship from the Away Team mission::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
*CMO*: I have grave doubts, that if the best minds in the federation and other governments failed, that we would succeed... unless this Black Arc has any answers.  According to this, it was built as a reservoir of the galaxies knowledge.
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
XO: Yes sir. Does Ozymandias have a central location I may use?
Host Ozymandias says:
COM: OPS: Commander I am sorry, but it is impossible for me to transport your program there, as I cannot access that part of the ship.
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
COM: Oz: Then take me to the nearest point you can access please. Time is short.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
TL: Shuttle bay!
TO_Ens_T`Lorn says:
::looks up from her console and towards the command center:: XO/CO: Security teams are at standby stations, and awaiting deployment instructions.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
XO: Work efficiently.  Best of luck to you.
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
*CSO*: If we can download this "knowledge" I’m sure we'd be over loaded with information.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
CO: Captain... I am uncertain, but according to this, many collective consciousnesses were transferred to that ships computer... with the sole purpose of going back into time to correct the damage done.
Host Ozymandias says:
COM: All: I will transfer each team to the closest part of the ship I can access.
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
COM: Oz: Very well, I'm ready.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
*CMO*: It is not just information, but conscious beings.
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
CO: I'm ready when he is sir.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
*CMO*: Doctor, I believe I have found your answer... :: sends the information.::
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
COM: Oz: Standing by

ACTION: In a fraction of a second all personnel involved in the repair mission disappears from the Shari and rematerializes in different part of the Black ship.

CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
::checks his position::

@ACTION: The XO finds herself on a empty bridge, modeled exactly like the Sharikahr's bridge.

OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@::Appears and uses a scanner to get familiar with the systems as she moves to the damaged area, keeping an eye open for hazards::
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
:: Sits back in shock::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
CSO: Consciousnesses?  Is this similar to what is occurring now?
TO_Ens_T`Lorn says:
@<Sec_Teams> ::spread out as they materialize, teams taking up a position to guard each individual of the repair team::
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@Self: Sweet ::sits down and call up a ships diagnostic to show her where the damaged "EPS conduits" are.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
*CMO*: According to their plan, as there was nothing left alive, beyond the fringe worlds, the only way to make this work was to go back in time... with the cure in... our genes?
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@CTO: Keep your eyes open buddy. When we get there I'll handle the computer stuff, you tackle the mechanical.

@ACTION: Each team is beamed in different parts of the ships, each team has to walk a while before they can reach their destination.

TO_Ens_T`Lorn says:
@<Sec_Team_1> ::materializes on the bridge-like structure, and immediately fans out to lay out solid cover fire should it be necessary::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Stands and turns around, nodding.::  CO Uncertain.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@OPS: ME is 1.5 klicks dead ahead
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
CO: However, you could as Ozymandias.

@ACTION: A holographic representation of the black ship appears in front of the XO, with dots signaling the teams and the areas that need repair.

CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
*CSO*: That was a good read and a very good theory.  So if they can't send us back, we can't cure it.
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@CTO: Of course it is... good thing we are in shape. Up for a little jog?
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@*OPS/CTO*: Report.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
*CMO*: Did you note how far back they wanted to send us?  :: Looks at the captain::
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@*XO*: We are heading for Main Engineering, but it's about a klick and a half jog, we'll let you know when we arrive.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@*XO*: Boss we are 1.5 klicks from ME
Host Ozymandias says:
@<LtJG_Salar>: *XO*: We see the relay ma'am, we are about to begin the repairs, it looks pretty easy.
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@*Salar*: Proceed with caution, we already know that some little traps have been set.
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@::Starts out at a jog down the corridor::

@ACTION: The corridor in front of the CTO and OPS suddenly becomes pitch black. All lights turn off.

CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::follows OPS::
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@Self: Jolly
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@*OPS/CTO*: Good to know. Be careful.
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@::Skids to a halt, gets out her phaser, starts firing at the black:: CTO: Oz told us black is bad, Cardie’s virus traps, but our weapons are setup with antivirus stuff.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
CO: The temple we were at, was basically a computer containing the consciences of some of the top scientists still alive.
Host Ozymandias says:
@<Salar>:*XO*: Aye ma'am. Salar out.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::looks around carefully::
TO_Ens_T`Lorn says:
@<Sec_Team_2> ::as the lights go out, they draw weapons and move to cover the OPS and CTO's position, popping off a precautionary round or two::
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@Computer: Please show me where the repair teams are in relation to the conduits on the ships schematic.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::raises phaser and fires into the darkness::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
CSO: Interesting.  And this is an extension of that computer?
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@::Continues sweeping the black area methodically with her phaser::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
*CMO*/CO: If I understand this, their plan to modify all life on Partholon succeeded.  The Partholians are the guardians of the place and it is their mission to defend it from outsiders.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::quietly:: OPS: You hear that?
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
CO: Now I understand something.  The Partholians worship those consciousness that were sent back.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
CSO: The spirits?
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@CTO: Yup... keep firing...

@ACTION: OPS Phaser illuminates what seems like a bunch of huge snakes disappearing into a grid in the corridor floor.

CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
:: Feels slightly embarrassed she didn't figure anything out::
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@::Fires at the snakes::
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::continues to fire::
TO_Ens_T`Lorn says:
::continues to keep an eye on the sensory display::
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@Self: What’s next bloody spiders?

@ACTION: The snakes blacken and disappear under the CTO and OPS Fire.

CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Still reading through the information.:: CO: Aye.  And apparently once a year, the consciousnesses are able to use force fields to become real and walk among their creation.
TO_Ens_T`Lorn says:
@<SEC_Team_2> ::fans out a little more, covering the corridor::
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@*XO*: Be advised, and pass it on, if our folks come on black areas, be prepared for big honkin' snakes.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::signals the Sec-Team to cover them::
Host Ozymandias says:
@<Salar>*XO*: Commander, I believe we are not alone, I think I spotted something close by.
TO_Ens_T`Lorn says:
@<SEC_Team_3> *XO*: ::in a near panic:: Hawkins to commander R... ::is cut off by screaming in the background::

@ACTION: The lights in the corridor suddenly are on again.

CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::begins to move slowly forward::
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@CTO: Right, let's leg it, time is short.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::nods::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
:: Pondering ::
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@::Takes off at a trot down the corridor, looking for more black patches::
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::follows OPS::
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@*All teams*: Black areas are the manifestation of computer viruses. If you come to a dark area, stop and listen. Your phasers are loaded with an anti-virus.
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@*XO*: Already briefed my team on that, Boss.
Host Ozymandias says:
@<Salar>*ALL*: Proceeding to investigate and ready to offer fire support to the repair team.
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@*OPS*: way to stay on top of things Commander.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
CO: According to this, O'Sullivan's expidetion made it to where we are now and back.  Unfortunately they were captured by the Cardassians.  According to this, they were destroyed. after gaining knowledge of their discovery.
TO_Ens_T`Lorn says:
@<SEC_Lt_Hawkins> ::franticly backpeddaling:: *AT*: This is lieutenant Hawkins to anyone who can hear me. ::there's a definitely painful scream in the background:: We're pinned down. Need immediate.. oh God no!
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Looks up::  CO: If I am repeating information that might have been given earlier, my pardon.
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@*XO*: We already encountered one patch. We chased them off and are proceeding on mission. No casualties. Will keep you advised. Hembrook out.
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
:: Leaves sick bay and goes towards the bridge::
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::trots forward::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
CSO: Their death is disappointing.  Given the needlessness of it.  Are the Cardassians attempting to gain access to this computer and it's... consciousnesses?
Host Ozymandias says:
@<Salar>: ::screams:: *ALL*: They are everywhere, phasers do not work. We will try to delay them. ::silence follows::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
CO: Yes... however, they have so far not succeeded.
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
CSO: And if they do, then we will end up with this future.

ACTION: On the ship suddenly a series of people with black burns start to appear in sickbay.

CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@OPS: there goes the shooting match

@ACTION: The CTO and OPS reach a huge door, closed. The PADD points that the relay is on the other side.

OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@CTO: That makes our job that much more critical. The sooner we fix the ship, the safer everyone will be. We have to hustle.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::looks for an access panel::
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
*All teams*: We've lost the team in Sector 3. They reported that the phasers didn't work. I don't like sending anyone into danger, but we need someone to cover that area.
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
CO: So it would appear.  They traded one future for another.
TO_Ens_T`Lorn says:
CO: Captain, security team reports they are under heavy... ::pauses, and then slightly quieter:: They no longer respond to attempts to communicate, sir.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::grits his teeth and swears::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
CO: And according to this, we are on a time line... we have until the computers last defense fails.
Host Ozymandias says:
@<Salar>*XO*: Relay repaired, beam the team back!!! Now!!!
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@::Watches the CTO:: CTO: Better let me have a crack at it. I read Spoonhead. ::winks and moves to try and work the panel::
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@Ozymandias: Beam the finished team back to our ship quickly
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@*XO*: I`ll go boss
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
TO: Any way to get the team backup?
Host Ozymandias says:
@XO: I will, two more teams have finished repairs.
CMO_Cmdr_Tiernan says:
:: Exits onto the bridge and heads over to the CO and CSO::
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@::Starts using her PADD and OPS training to run a program to find the door code::
TO_Ens_T`Lorn says:
::gravely:: CO: There is no one left to back up, captain.
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@Ozymandias: How many conduits remain to be repaired.

@ACTION: Dots representing the teams change colors once the teams have finished repairs, other dots representing Cardassian viruses, seem to fill the ship holographic display.

:: nods to the doctor and steps slightly aside so that she can view the screens with data across them.::
Host Ozymandias says:
@XO: 7 but until main engineering is repaired I can't do much.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::turns and nods to OPS. Turns and heads towards sector 3::

@ACTION: The CTO and OPS hear a powerful roar just behind them.

OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@CTO: Watch your back, bro.
TO_Ens_T`Lorn says:
@<SEC_Team_2> ::the team tenses suddenly, instinctively pulling out their weapons and looking back up the corridor::
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@*CO*: Repairs are proceeding. Unfortunately the viruses are fighting us for every inch. We've lost one team and until "Main Engineering" is back online Ozymandias can't do much to help.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::smiles at OPS:: OPS: Always commander
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@::Keeps working on the door code, trying to get in as quickly as possible::
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::heads down the corridor phaser at the ready::
Host CO_Captain_Savar says:
:: Tries to remain positive ::  *XO*: The loss is unfortunate.  Tell the other teams to be cautious.
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@*OPS*: What is your status.
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@*CO*: Already done sir.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@*XO*: Boss I’m on my way to that teams last known position

@ACTION: A huge worm, whose head fills the whole corridor bust through the bulkheads 150 meters behind OPS and the CTO

Host Ozymandias says:
@XO: 4 Conduits left.
TO_Ens_T`Lorn says:
<SEC_Team_2> @::collectively, the team opens fire::
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@*XO*: Just another day at the beach, Boss. I'm trying to crack a door code in Cardie that's holding us up, and there's a monster down the hall that sounds hungry, the usual. How's things with you? ::still working as she chats::
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@*CTO*: Be careful. That team was decimated. I think I little boy would kill me if I got you injured.

@ACTION: The phasers fire has no EFFECT; the worm is now 100 meters distant.

@ACTION: The panel lights signal all green and suddenly the door opens.

OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@CTO: Get our folks in! Move it!
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@*OPS*: Ozymandias has told me he can be of more help once you get ME repaired.
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@*XO*: Don’t worry boss, I don’t plan on getting shot. At least not today anyway
TO_Ens_T`Lorn says:
@<SEC_CPO_Davidson> Team: Weapons fire ineffective! Fall back! ::watches as his team moves to regroup, trying their best to shield their superiors::
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@*XO*: I'll get right on that, Boss...
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::moving cautiously down the corridor::
CSO_LtCmd_So`tsoh says:
:: Comes to the end of the relevant data and looks at the doctor.::
Host Ozymandias says:
@XO: All teams have completed their repairs. Only your Main Engineering team remains.
TO_Ens_T`Lorn says:
<SEC_Team_2> @::a few of the team configure their phasers slightly differently, and continue firing::
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@*CTO*: Considering what I've heard. Shot is the least of your worries
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@::looks at the worm::

@ACTION: The worm is now 25 meters distant and spits a glob of green acid at the SEC team. One of them dissolves.

OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
@::Motions the Security team to get into ME on the double::
CTO_LtJg_Wall says:
@*XO*: Way is blocked boss, I’m heading back to ME
XO_Cmdr_Rodos says:
@*OPS/CO*: All conduits repaired, get ME done and we're home free.
OPS_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
