U.S.S. Tal-War's 100th mission, The Perfect Ion Part 2.  Stardate 10403.27.
Host Chris_N says:
SYNOPSIS:  The Tal-War has picked up the automated distress call from the SS. Pride of Elizabeth caught between two converging Ion Storms.
Host Chris_N says:
With responding to distress calls a primary mandate in the Starfleet Charter, the Tal-War has penetrated the first storm and has towed the transport containing 44 personnel destined for Deep Space 21 to the edge of the storm.
Host Chris_N says:
Unfortunately, damages onboard the Akira class vessel are mounting and the second storm closing with an ETA of 3 minutes while the edge of the first storm 5 minutes away, we await to see the final outcome.

OPS_Hunter says:
XO: If we shut down lifesupport we will only have enough air for 30 minutes and we may not be able to restart lifesupport if our reserves drop any lower. I have an alternative plan.
XO_Jameson says:
::Is sitting on the bridge, slightly breathless::
Host CO_Kyrron says:
::in Engineering wondering what to do::
CSO_Shack says:
::Tries to find a way out of the emerging storms with minimum damage with the help of navigational sensors::
OPS_Hunter says:
XO: I can get us the power for the transport beams, shields and population.  We are going to have to shut down completely the following systems: Turbo Lift system, Science Labs, all remaining online replicators and power off all Phaser and launchers. Additional all charging station for Hand weapons and other hand equipment will be cut off.
XO_Jameson says:
OPS: I'm listening
OPS_Hunter says:
XO: Additional we going to have to shutdown life support, gravity and all systems expect transporters in cargo bays 1, 2, 3.  I recommend going to minimal power for visiting officer quarters and vip quarters, no lights, gravity.  Lastly we going to need to shut down all power, including Life support and gravity  to decks 6 thru 13.
CEO_Irvin says:
::madly tapping away on a damage control management console::
OPS_Hunter says:
XO: If we do all that, I be able to bring shields back to full strength.  Have enough power for transporters and propulsion. We will also have enough power for limit tractor beam functions.
CMO_Uax says:
:: works away in sickbay ::
XO_Jameson says:
OPS: But what if we get attacked by the pirates. Have you run this by Tach yet?
TO_MacAllister says:
CSO: Can we get everyone to the emergency shelters before we shut down life support?
OPS_Hunter says:
XO: I doubt pirates are our primary concern right now, at the rate we going we can either breath and not fight, or not breath and fight
Host Chris_N says:
ACTION: The ship rocks sharply from the Ion Storm
CSO_Shack says:
TO: Yes, try to inform them with the help of the internal comm
CMO_Uax says:
:: grabs the console she’s working at and stabilizes herself.
TO_MacAllister says:
CSO: Right!
Host Chris_N says:
ACTION: More injured are ushered into Sickbay
CSO_Shack says:
::Trips a bit::
OPS_Hunter says:
::Holds on to his commandeer station::
XO_Jameson says:
OPS: Organise it and complete your plan.  We need that power to keep us together
CEO_Irvin says:
::notes that inertial dampeners are fluctuating::  *XO* Anya...  Inertial Dampeners are giving way....   There isn't a lot I can do about it, but I thought you'd like to know...  ::still working::
OPS_Hunter says:
XO: Aye
CMO_Uax says:
:: starts putting the injured on biobeds and on stretchers on the floor ::
XO_Jameson says:
CSO: How are the plans for the transporter going?
Host CO_Kyrron says:
CEO:  How much time?
CSO_Shack says:
XO: For the moment, very hard....
CEO_Irvin says:
CO: Till the storms converge?  About 2 and a half minutes......
XO_Jameson says:
*CEO*: Thanks for the heads up.  How much longer do you think we can hold her together?
CMO_Uax says:
:: thinks :: *ALL*: Anyone with any medical training please report to sickbay.
OPS_Hunter says:
TO: Begin evacuating decks 6 -13 and clearing the cargo bays, inform me once all personal are clear of those areas, deck by deck bases
TO_MacAllister says:
*all pilots*: All pilots report to your fighters and switch to independent life support, Right now!
CSO_Shack says:
XO: I cant find a safe way out of here
TO_MacAllister says:
OPS: I'm on it.
XO_Jameson says:
CSO: Not even transporting the storm out of our way as we go through?
OPS_Hunter says:
::Begins shutting down power to weapon systems and shifts the power to shields and transports::
CSO_Shack says:
XO: Unfortunately no, but I’ve detected a weakened area that we can go through
Host CO_Kyrron says:
CEO:  And then what?
CSO_Shack says:
::Sends the data to helms::
TO_MacAllister says:
*All Crew*: All crew evacuate decks 6 through 13 and report to your closest emergency shelters, switch to independent life support and await further orders. THIS IS NOT A DRILL!
OPS_Hunter says:
*All Hands*: Turbo Lifts shutting down in one minute, Repeat all turbo lifts shutting down in 1 minute
CEO_Irvin says:
::pauses, not answering the Captain's last question:: CO: If their little plan is going to work, we need to give them all the help we can....   I'm going to coordinate with Mr. Hunter and assists with the power transfers...   ::points to the power level meters on the main situation display::  I need you to watch and make sure that none of these systems goes red line.
XO_Jameson says:
CSO: As soon as you have the transporter rigged, start moving.
Host Chris_N says:
ACTION: As the power is shifted to the shields the ship begins sustaining less damage
OPS_Hunter says:
::begins shutting down power to unused quarters::
CSO_Shack says:
XO: Aye
Host Chris_N says:
ACTON: Converging 2nd Storm... ETA 45 seconds
Host CO_Kyrron says:

Host CO_Kyrron says:
CEO:  Fortunately, yes.  ::gets to work::
CSO_Shack says:
::Checks the propulsion::
CEO_Irvin says:
::holds on tight::  CO: Then you're an engineer....   
TO_MacAllister says:
::braces against his console::
CSO_Shack says:
XO: All transfer to propulsion completed
CEO_Irvin says:

CEO_Irvin says:
CO: Tria...  How are my EPS taps looking?  
CEO_Irvin says:
CO: Amber or Red?
CSO_Shack says:
::Keeps an eye on the transporters::
Host CO_Kyrron says:
CEO:  Lots of green.
XO_Jameson says:
*CEO*: How are things looking down there?
Host Chris_N says:
<Ens Redshirt> XO: Commander, my navigational sensors has come back online.  It seems the storm has pushed us well into Finotan Space!
Host CO_Kyrron says:
CEO:  With bits of amber
OPS_Hunter says:
::Checks power levels and is please to see the almost empty batteries are beginning to fill up a bit, not a lot, but it was better then the down ward shift they had been going::
CSO_Shack says:
::Scans the area::
TO_MacAllister says:
*pilots*: All pilots, report status.
XO_Jameson says:
RedShirt: Finotan Space?  Maybe it would have been better if we were dead....
CEO_Irvin says:
::initialising transports one by one::  *XO* She's holding together...   I don't know how, but it's holding together.....
CMO_Uax says:
:: pulls the covers over  5 patients :: sighs :: they never had a chance.
OPS_Hunter says:
::Sees an incoming hail and attempts to id it::
XO_Jameson says:
RedShirt: Plot a course back to non-Finotan Space.  Fastest route you can
OPS_Hunter says:
XO: Incoming hail
Host CO_Kyrron says:
CEO:  Turbolifts back up yet?
Host Chris_N says:
<Redshirt> XO: Aye ma'am.
XO_Jameson says:
*CEO/CO*: We are out.  But in Finotan space. We aren't quite in the clear yet
CEO_Irvin says:
::notes that we are out::  *XO* I think that's it.....   Returning to standard flight...  Thank God!
Host CO_Kyrron says:
::tries to check for herself but can't quite navigate the engineering panel::
CMO_Uax says:
*CO* that last impact from the storms.. cost us 5 good crew.
OPS_Hunter says:
::Begins shifts power back to weapon systems::
TO_MacAllister says:
::checks shield status::
Host CO_Kyrron says:
*CMO*:  Any word on the Elizabeth crew?
OPS_Hunter says:
TO: Shifting power back to weapon systems
XO_Jameson says:
*CO*: We have the Elizabeth still in tractor as well
CMO_Uax says:
*CO* I'm just heading to check them now..
Host Chris_N says:
@<Finotan CO> COMM: Tal-War: Well look who broke their little ship.
TO_MacAllister says:
OPS: Thank you.
CEO_Irvin says:
::smiles to the Captain::  Computer: Computer, transfer power from the emergency batteries to the turbolifts and initialise manual override.
CMO_Uax says:
*CO* they're where about?
Host CO_Kyrron says:
*XO*:  I'm on my way to the bridge.  Good work, Commander.
CSO_Shack says:
::Hears the Finotan CO::
TO_MacAllister says:
CSO: Can we get a team over to the Elizabeth to begin repairs?
Host CO_Kyrron says:
CEO:  Thank you Eli.
XO_Jameson says:
COMM: Finotan CO: Thanks for your concern.  As soon as we are able to, we will leave your space.  Please accept our apologies
CEO_Irvin says:
CO: Thank you Tria...  I'm gonna miss working with you.
OPS_Hunter says:
::Restores power to tl system but restricts access to senior staff and security personal::
Host CO_Kyrron says:
::leaves ME::
TO_MacAllister says:
XO: Shields at 23%.
CSO_Shack says:
::Whispers:: TO: Do we have weapons online?
XO_Jameson says:
::Mutes the comm::
Host CO_Kyrron says:
*CMO*:  Still aboard the Elizabeth presumably.
TO_MacAllister says:
CSO: Checking John.
XO_Jameson says:
OPS: Power report
Host Chris_N says:
@<Finotan CO> ::raises an eyebrow::  COMM: XO: Oh, I don't think that will be possible
OPS_Hunter says:
::Sends text message to TO: "Full power to launchers, charging phaser array::
Host CO_Kyrron says:
CEO:  And I you Eli.  But you belong in command.
XO_Jameson says:
TO: Shields and weapons report
CMO_Uax says:
*CO* does she have life support still?
XO_Jameson says:
::Takes off the mute::
TO_MacAllister says:
XO: Shields at 23%, Launchers at full power, Charging Phaser arrays. All fighters report ready.
XO_Jameson says:
COMM: Finotan CO: And how would you suggest this plays out then?
Host CO_Kyrron says:
*CMO*:  I'm assuming if they haven't been evacuated yet, that they still have life support.
OPS_Hunter says:
XO: Restoring power system as fast as possible, shields at full power, launchers at full power, tl are back on line but restricted senior staff and security
CEO_Irvin says:
::walks back to damage control management::  *XO* Confirming shields at 23%, Life support back to 96% of nominal. Main power is still offline.  We are running on Auxiliary only.  I can have Warp drive back in 2 hours.  Main Power in 4. 
CMO_Uax says:
*CO* permission to take a medical team over.
TO_MacAllister says:
XO: I got what appears to be a  battle group of four Finotan cruisers on sensors.
Host Chris_N says:
@<Finotan CO> ::looking smug::  COMM: XO: Well, I would suggest that we assist you by escorting you back to Finota and after a brief stay, return your crew back to that quaint little station of yours.
Host CO_Kyrron says:
*CMO*:  Check with the bridge.  Either arrange an evacuation or beam a team over.
CSO_Shack says:
TO: Well, I think you can send a repair team to the Elizabeth, but it may not be the best time
CMO_Uax says:
*CO* aye ma'am!
TO_MacAllister says:
CSO: I'd have to agree.
CMO_Uax says:
*XO* permission to take a team over to the Elizabeth and start treating her crew
XO_Jameson says:
COMM: Finotan CO: I have a better idea, still keeping with your theory.  You can escort us back to the border, keeping an eye on us as you obviously don't trust us, and then let us go back to 'that quaint little station of ours'
Host CO_Kyrron says:
::waits for a TL::
CEO_Irvin says:
*OPS* What have you guys GOTTA have first?  We can't fix it all in less than 30 minutes Hunter.
CEO_Irvin says:
::looks over to the CO::  CO: Still no turbo lift?
Host Chris_N says:
@<Finotan CO> COMM: XO: The way I see it Commander... you have used a storm to gain entry into our territory undetected.  There will be questions that need to be answered.
XO_Jameson says:
*CMO*: If you feel that the situation on the Tal-War is at an appropriate stage for you to conduct this, go ahead.  Take someone from Science with you, so we can try and find out how they got stuck in the storm in the first place
Host CO_Kyrron says:
::watches the TL door open::  CEO:  Better late than never.  ::steps in::
TO_MacAllister says:
OPS: I gotta have the catapults online quick.
OPS_Hunter says:
*CEO*: We need more power, we facing off with 4 felton cruiser right now, with our current power levels we not going to last long
Host CO_Kyrron says:
::overhears the comm from OPS just as the door closes::
Host CO_Kyrron says:
TL:  Bridge.
OPS_Hunter says:
TO: Sure, I can restore power to decks 6-13, but your lose all your weapons power
CMO_Uax says:
*XO* We've lost 5 crew here but the rest are stable.
XO_Jameson says:
COMM: Finotan CO: Then you can question us here. And then escort us back to the border.  We were on a rescue mission, not covert duty.  They'd hardly use a ship this size to sneak into your space.  Please.
XO_Jameson says:
*CMO* Acknowledged
CMO_Uax says:
*CSO* Think you can spare someone from your department for a little field trip?
CEO_Irvin says:
::swings back around to the warp control console::  *OPS* What would you guess the chances are of keeping this little spitting match under 15 minutes...   If you can do that, I would be reluctantly willing to run up the warp core with no coolant that we are stable again...
TO_MacAllister says:
OPS: No good, I need the weapons in case the finotans try anything, we need to have at least a fighting chance.
CSO_Shack says:
XO: I've detected a phaser shift about 7000 meters behind the Finotan group
CSO_Shack says:
*CMO*: Sure, take Ens Lorene
OPS_Hunter says:
TO: Then your going to have to live with out the phasers
XO_Jameson says:
::mutes the COMM:: CSO: Phaser shift? Meaning?
CSO_Shack says:
XO: Unclear yet, checking
OPS_Hunter says:
*CEO*: IF we do a hit and run tactic it possible, but, we got to protect the Elizabeth so I am not sure that an option...
TO_MacAllister says:
CSO: Fine, just let me keep torpedoes.
Host Chris_N says:
ACTION: On screen the Phase Shift detected by the CSO changes into a "swarm" of 50 ships about half the size of a Defiant.
Host CO_Kyrron says:
::arrives on the bridge and looks at the viewscreen::
XO_Jameson says:
CSO: I think that was your phase shift ::points to the viewscreen::
CSO_Shack says:
XO: I believe that shift, is the pirates
TO_MacAllister says:
:: looks at the screen::
TO_MacAllister says:
Self: What the........
OPS_Hunter says:
TO: Unfortunately you would lose those as well, you can either have fighters and no ships weapons or ship weapons and no fighters
CSO_Shack says:
::Looks at the viewscreen::
Host CO_Kyrron says:
XO:  Do we have the capability to evacuate the Elizabeth?
CEO_Irvin says:
*OPS/XO/CO* We cannot hold of an attack of this magnitude.
TO_MacAllister says:
OPS: how long for fighters?
Host Chris_N says:
ACTION: An insectoid looking creature appears on a split screen with the Finotan CO
XO_Jameson says:
::Looks over at OPS with a raised eyebrow:: OPS: Can we evacuate Liz?
Host CO_Kyrron says:
*CEO*:  Understood.
OPS_Hunter says:
XO/CO: I concur with the CEO our best option is to run
XO_Jameson says:
::Unmutes both comms::
CSO_Shack says:
OPS: And what about the Elizabeth?
OPS_Hunter says:
XO: Yes, we got enough power to do that, luckily there still in our shields coverage so we will not even have to drop shields
OPS_Hunter says:
Shack: We evacuate their crew and run
XO_Jameson says:
CO: Shall I evacuate, and you deal with our...company?
Host Chris_N says:
#<Drevapt CO> COMM: Tal-War/Finotan Battle Group: We are the Drevapt, leave the crippled ship or face the consequences
Host CO_Kyrron says:
::steps forward to the screen::
CEO_Irvin says:
*Bridge* I can run enough power to the Elizabeth now to get everyone off in one felt swoop.
Host CO_Kyrron says:
*Drevapt CO*:  We are evacuating it now.
XO_Jameson says:
*CEO* Do it.  Use your discretion to where you beam them
TO_MacAllister says:
CEO: Can we save the cargo as well?
CMO_Uax says:
*CSO* Thanks!
Host Chris_N says:
#<Drevapt CO> COMM: CO: Take only your pitiful creatures and leave the rest intact
XO_Jameson says:
*CMO* We are beaming the crew of the Elizabeth to the Tal now.  Abort your mission, and prepare for incoming casualties
CSO_Shack says:
*CMO*: I suggest you stay aboard!
Host CO_Kyrron says:
*Dravapt CO*:  We need a few minutes.
CMO_Uax says:
*XO* Understood, we're waiting here in sickbay
CEO_Irvin says:
::runs up power on the warp core::  *Bridge* I'm locking onto the people and the cargo and beaming the whole lot to the Cargo Bay.
OPS_Hunter says:
::checks power levels::
TO_MacAllister says:
XO: It seems the finotans are engaging the drevapt.
CSO_Shack says:
<Delete last>
Host CO_Kyrron says:
TO:  Good luck to them.
CEO_Irvin says:
*Bridge* And I've brought the warp core back on line.  We have minimal coolant capacity.  Just enough to get us out of here... Nothing more.   Inertial Dampeners at 36%
XO_Jameson says:
CO: We could try and leave now.  Irvin was saying something about maybe running warp without the coolant to get us out of here
Host Chris_N says:
ACTION: On screen, the battle wages as the "swarm" concentrates their attack on the first Finotan cruiser disabling it in less than two minutes while they in turn lose about 10 ships
Host CO_Kyrron says:
XO:  Do we have the Elizabeth crew?
XO_Jameson says:
::Hears the CEO:: CO: It's be a rocky ride
XO_Jameson says:
*CEO*: Irvin, do we have the Elizabeth crew?
Host CO_Kyrron says:
OPS:  Prepare to disengage tractor beam.
CEO_Irvin says:

::Sees the CEO enter::
XO_Jameson says:
::Sighs very quietly at making the CO smile, and smiles a little herself at the reaction::
CEO_Irvin says:
::looks to the view screen::  COMM: Krakalovich: No... I don't think you did...  I find it hard to believe that 50+ dead and damage to over 75% of the ship could be funny...   "sir"
Host CO_Kyrron says:
*Krakalovich*:  Humorous?  You?  Certainly not.   The Elizabeth crew is intact  although the Tal-War has suffered casualties.  We should have warp in a few hours and can make it back.
Host Chris_N says:
@<Krakalovich> COMM: CO: Good to hear Captain.  Shall we send you an escort just in case?  CEO: Oh and Commander, good luck to you on the Huron.
CEO_Irvin says:
COMM: Krakalovich: Yeah...  Good luck to you too....  ::rolls eyes::
CSO_Shack says:
::Raises an eye-brow when not hears a sting back from Krak to the CEO::
XO_Jameson says:
::Tries to control her facial expression as she resists the urge to explode with laughter::
Host Chris_N says:
@<Krakalovich> ::ignores the CEO knowing he's leaving the sector::
Host CO_Kyrron says:
*Krakalovich*:  If you have a ship to spare.    We made contact with the pirates.  They were in Finotan space.
TO_MacAllister says:
CEO: How long until we have warp power?
CMO_Uax says:
:: cleans up from the surgery ::
Host Chris_N says:
@<Krakalovich> ::nods::  COMM: CO: Look forward to the report.  The...  ::pauses:: U.S.S. Rhodes should be there within 10 minutes.  They'll assist anyway needed.  Krakalovich out.
CEO_Irvin says:
::moves over to the other chair to the left of the CO and plops down in it:::  TO: Repairs are under way...  We should have minimal sustained warp power in about 45 minutes.
TO_MacAllister says:
CEO: Acknowledged.
OPS_Hunter says:
::checks power levels, and realises that there reserves are still low::
Host CO_Kyrron says:
CEO:  Looks like we won't be able to take you to Risa anytime soon.
OPS_Hunter says:
TO: At current levels, we can restore power to decks 6 -13 15 minutes after we get warp power.  So in about 60 minutes we can begin bring power back to flight operation systems
CEO_Irvin says:
CO: There is a runabout on the Rhodes that will do the job just fine....  Mr. Hunter is going to have his work cut out for him when y'all get back to DS-21.
TO_MacAllister says:
OPS: Right, let me know when it's ready.
CEO_Irvin says:
::looks to OPS::
CEO_Irvin says:
::smiles::
Host Chris_N says:
@<Krakalovich> ::pauses before closing the Comm. ::  COMM: CO: Oh and Captain, until the Stardock is finished out here, we won't be able to install a new TIC.  We do have the spare parts for a Quantum Torpedo Launcher like the Rhodes has.  Unfortunately, this will also require much of the space used by your launch bay.  The final word is yours...
OPS_Hunter says:
CEO: Your leaving already?
Host CO_Kyrron says:
::visions of quantum torpedoes dance in her head::
CEO_Irvin says:
::chucks an isoliner chip to Hunter::  
OPS_Hunter says:
::catches the chip:: CEO: What this for?
CEO_Irvin says:
OPS: That's the keys to the shop.
OPS_Hunter says:
CEO: Ah....::pockets the key::
