Prelude: Last time on ACTD USS Titan...

A malfunction in the computer core caused the holodeck controls to go offline.  All safeties have been disabled and the computer is not responding to verbal commands.

The Captain is badly wounded in holodeck 1 from wounds sustained by two skillful Klingons.

The XO and FCO are stuck in holodeck 2, wounded in a gun battle with two armed thugs who have an endless amount of ammo and is shooting up a restaurant.

OPS McDuggle along with one engineer are outside the holodecks trying to override the computer lockouts.  CTO Benson is on the Bridge coordinating the rescue efforts.

CMO Madson has been ordered back to the ship to render assistance to the injured crew in the holodecks.

CEO Fletcher is still asleep in his quarters.

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<RESUME TITAN MISSION>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Host CO_Loran says:
::Kneels on the ground, wishing his wounds would stop bleeding as he awaits to be beamed out of the holodeck, his trusty Bat`leth being held up in a defensive posture::

CTO_Benson says:
::Standing at the tactical station on the Bridge trying to figure out what is wrong with the holodeck systems::

XO_Madson says:
::Sitting behind the table trying to think of something to do::

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: Engineering reports that the transporters are not responding.

OPS_McDuggle says:
::Repeats command:: Computer: open holodeck one and end all programs.

FCO_Chottu says:
::Ducked down behind a table searching for a way out and hoping not to get shot again::

CTO_Benson says:
*CO*: Sir, engineering reports the transporters are offline again.  They are trying their best to get them working.

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The computer starts to laugh at McDuggle while the XO and FCO continue to evade bullets.

Host CO_Loran says:
*CTO*: Then get someone to one of the shuttles and use those transporters or have the Bajoran station use their transporters.

XO_Madson says:
::Grabs a chair and starts ripping it apart and hands the FCO a leg:: FCO: Aim for the lights.  They can't hit us if they can't see us.

CTO_Benson says:
*CO*: Aye, Sir, I'll be in contact.

OPS_McDuggle says:
Computer: Run a level-3 diagnostic on the holodeck.

XO_Madson says:
::Takes the bars from the back of the chair and starts tossing them at the lights in the ceiling::

CTO_Benson says:
::Turns and gives the command to a Lieutenant then heads into the turbolift::  Shuttlebay one.

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The CO can hear a rustling sound in the bushes.

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The computer starts laughing on every audio channel.

CTO_Benson says:
::Exits the turbolift and runs to the shuttlebay::

FCO_Chottu says:
::Lets go of his arm and throws the chair leg at the closest light::

CTO_Benson says:
::Hears the computer laughter but ignores it as she enters the shuttlebay::

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The FCO's toss misses wide.

Host CO_Loran says:
::Keys in on his senses with the approaching danger and takes a stern defensive posture up against a tree, using it as support.  Wishes the bandages would stop the bleeding::

OPS_McDuggle says:
::Starts rechecking holodeck control panel:: Computer: Cut power to holodecks.

CTO_Benson says:
::Approaches one of the shuttles then taps her code into the control pad opening the shuttle door and enters::

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: All power all over the ship goes out.

CTO_Benson says:
::Looks out the shuttle door as the lights go out then moves to the main console and activates it::

XO_Madson says:
::Watches the holodeck go dead:: FCO: Well, that was easy enough.

CTO_Benson says:
::Powers up the transporter systems and tries to get a lock on the Captain in holodeck one::

OPS_McDuggle says:
Engineer: I think this is in more than the holodecks.  We need to head for the main computer core.

FCO_Chottu says:
XO: Right, lets try to get out of here.

Host CO_Loran says:
::Sees that the power has gone out and tries to make it to the gateway, finding a wall first and limping along it until he can find the alcove::

OPS_McDuggle says:
::Grabs a light from the tool kit and heads for the computer core::

XO_Madson says:
::Sees the exit and limps to it:: FCO: Over here.  ::Moans in the discomfort of his wound::

FCO_Chottu says:
::Grabs his arm and heads for the door::

CTO_Benson says:
::Obtains a transporter lock on the Captain and beams him directly to Sickbay::

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The CO is beamed to Sickbay.

CTO_Benson says:
::Taps the console to get a lock on the XO and FCO then beams them to Sickbay too::

OPS_McDuggle says:
::Decides to try and manually open doors first::

CTO_Benson says:
*Sickbay*: Benson to Sickbay, confirm transport of three patients.

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The XO and FCO are beamed to Sickbay.

Host CO_Loran says:
::The wall he was once using as support suddenly disappears and he falls across one of the biobeds and onto the floor::  Self: Owwwww.

OPS_McDuggle says:
* Main Engineering*: We need power back up as soon as possible!

XO_Madson says:
::Sees the CO:: CO: Boy, you look worse than us.

FCO_Chottu says:
::Looks around:: Self: Ah, beats walking.

CTO_Benson says:
::Slams her fist on the console realizing the COM system is out.  Deactivates the shuttle systems and exits the shuttle::

XO_Madson says:
::Starts limping around Sickbay looking for a medical kit::

OPS_McDuggle says:
::Taps COM badge again wondering why he is not getting a response from Main Engineering::

CTO_Benson says:
::Trips over something on the deck then turns and re-enters the shuttle. Opens up a locker and extracts a med kit, wrist beacon and tricorder::

Host CO_Loran says:
XO:  Well, that is what happens when you go up against two highly skilled Klingons with Bat`leths and the computer decides to have some fun.

OPS_McDuggle says:
Engineer: Keep trying to get the doors opened.  I’m heading for the computer core.  ::Starts for the computer core again::

CTO_Benson says:
::Straps on the wrist beacon and activates it.  Puts the tricorder in her belt then slings the med kit over her shoulder and closes the locker::

XO_Madson says:
::Finds a tricorder but not much else then stops and rips off the sleeves of his shirt taking the shirt off and wrapping it around the wound tying it down with the sleeves:: CO/FCO:  Well, if things are as bad as they seem then life support is down and I'm going to Engineering to find out what is wrong.  Anyone care to join me?

Host CO_Loran says:
::Gets up onto one of the biobeds with the help of a nurse as another one starts to work on his deep wounds::

CTO_Benson says:
::Exits the shuttle again and rushes to the shuttlebay doors.  Opens up a wall locker and extracts a portable power pack, attaches it onto the door and activates the device to open the door::

OPS_McDuggle says:
::Comes to a Jeffries tube and climbs down to the computer core::

Host CO_Loran says:
XO: See if you can get a status on my ship.

FCO_Chottu says:
::Still holding his arm:: XO: I'll join you, don't feel like sitting around here.

CTO_Benson says:
::Exits the shuttlebay and heads for the main airlock, finding it slightly difficult to breathe::

Host CO_Loran says:
<Nurse> CO:  You are going to have to stay here a while.  You have lost a lot of blood.

Host CO_Loran says:
::Grumbles about Sickbay::

CTO_Benson says:
::Stops at a Jeffries tube hatch, opens it manually and climbs in::

OPS_McDuggle says:
::Arrives at the computer core and finds the problem and tries to reboot the computer from the protected memory ::

CTO_Benson says:
::Begins climbing the ladder to the next level::

XO_Madson says:
::Straps a case of supplies around his shoulder and attaches a power pack to the Sickbay doors and opens it manually.  Stops the door on open and leaves Sickbay:: FCO: This way.

Host CO_Loran says:
::Lays back on the biobed and allows the nurses to finish patching him up::

CTO_Benson says:
::Reaches the next level and opens the hatch then climbs out of the hatch into the corridor and rushes to the airlock::

FCO_Chottu says:
::Follows:: XO: Coming, Sir.

XO_Madson says:
FCO: Lets head to the airlock and find out what is happening from the Starbase’s point of view.

OPS_McDuggle says:
::Not having any luck starts checking closer and finds fried circuits::

CTO_Benson says:
::Stops at the airlock, opens a wall compartment and extracts a portable power pack and attaches it to the airlock door.  Taps the buttons activating the device and opens the door::

FCO_Chottu says:
XO: Just lead the way, Sir.

XO_Madson says:
::Finds the section with the airlock then pops open a door to a Jeffries tube and climbs in:: FCO: Several decks up. Hope you don't mind small quarters.

Host CO_Loran says:
::Feels that he has rested enough and starts to get off the biobed::

CTO_Benson says:
::Enters the airlock and reaches the entrance to the repair facility and taps the console to open the COM::  COM: Repair Facility: This is LtCmdr. Benson aboard the USS Titan.  All power aboard the Titan is offline including life support.  Please tie in your power systems to the Titan.

Host CO_Loran says:
<Nurse> CO: You can't leave yet!  You aren't well enough to move!

OPS_McDuggle says:
::Starts pulling and replacing isolinear chips::

XO_Madson says:
::Moves from deck to deck, starting to notice the cold temperature of space against his skin:: FCO: We're close.  Uh, does it feel cold to you?

Host Colonel_Meech says:
COM: Benson: I'm afraid we can't do that at the moment, Commander.  It would tax our own systems too much.

FCO_Chottu says:
XO: Yeah it is getting cold.

Host CO_Loran says:
Nurse: I'm well enough to know that life support has shut down and that we all need to get off this ship within the next 20 minutes or we will need Morgue instead of a Sickbay.

CTO_Benson says:
COM: Repair Facility: This is an emergency situation.  We have wounded.  Please give us enough power to activate life support and emergency lighting.

XO_Madson says:
::Finding the right deck but feeling short of breath, climbs out of the tube and walks towards the airlock while pulling out a power pack::

Host Colonel_Meech says:
COM: Benson:  Believe me, Commander, ::Sounding typically irritated:: there's nothing I'd rather do.  The best I can do is 40 minutes then I can give you power.

FCO_Chottu says:
::Climbs out of the Jeffries tube and looks at what the XO is doing:: XO: Now what, Sir?

OPS_McDuggle says:
::Works on getting life support back online::

CTO_Benson says:
COM: Repair Facility: With all due respect, Colonel, I have wounded here!  We will all be dead in 40 minutes.  I need that power and I need it now!  ::Slams her fist on the wall of the airlock::

Host CO_Loran says:
::The nurses hear his words and look a little nervous about the possibility of dying while at a repair facility::  Nurses:  You can follow me and I will try to get you out of here in one piece.

Host Colonel_Meech says:
COM: Benson: I thought you Starfleet people knew how to do everything!  Can you rub two sticks together and get warp power back?  We're doing the best we can!  I suggest you get some portable generators and get to work and let me do my job!

XO_Madson says:
::Enters the airlock and sees the CTO up ahead:: CTO: Good to see you.  Do you have them on the COM?  ::Then realizes his shirt is wrapped around his leg and begins to blush::

CTO_Benson says:
::Turns to see the XO standing behind her:: XO: Yes, Sir but they refuse to give us any power.

OPS_McDuggle says:
::Looks around to see if there is an aux generator::

CTO_Benson says:
COM: Repair Facility: Thanks for nothing!  I will be visiting you as soon as this crisis is over, I can guarantee you that!  ::Turns to the XO:: Looks like we're on our own, Sir.  We'll need portable generators, re-breathers, med kits and rations.

XO_Madson says:
CTO: Err...let me see it.  COM: Repair Station: This is XO Commander Scott Madson of the Titan.  I request emergency power for our ship.  Our life support is failing.

OPS_McDuggle says:
::Finds a generator and hooks it in to life support ::

Host Colonel_Meech says:
COM: XO: I don't care if you're the President of the Federation!  I can't get you power for about half an hour yet!

FCO_Chottu says:
::Scratches his head:: XO: Do we even know what caused the computer to erm..fail?  For all we know it was them.

Host CO_Loran says:
::Starts limping out of Sickbay and down the corridor to the closest Jeffries tube then starts to slowly climb up the ladder towards the shuttlebay with the two nurses in tow::

XO_Madson says:
COM: Repair Facility: That's great!  I will hold you personally responsible for any fatalities during this crisis!  Madsen, out.  FCO: I wonder if that is the case?  CTO: Okay, where are the nearest supplies?  

CTO_Benson says:
XO: We can get portable air supplies from the emergency lockers in the corridors then head for engineering to get the portable generators.  Sir, I suggest we get moving.  We don't have much time.  ::Turns and heads back into the ship::

CTO_Benson says:
::Enters the corridor and opens up a wall locker extracting portable breathing devices and passes them to the XO and FCO.  Puts one of them on herself::  XO: These should hold us for a while.

XO_Madson says:
::Follows after the CTO and takes a portable breathing device, but starting to feel very cold as goose bumps becoming visible on all of his skin:: CTO Understood, now for the rest of the crew, we shall see.

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The computer core is partially powered and a small red light turns on indicating that the phasers have been fired.

CTO_Benson says:
FCO: Do you need this?  ::Points to her med kit::

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: There is no indication that life support has been powered.

FCO_Chottu says:
::Looks at his arm:: CTO: Better save it, I'll be okay.

CTO_Benson says:
::Nods:: FCO: Suit yourself.

OPS_McDuggle says:
::Sees readings from computer and wonders how that happened ::

XO_Madson says:
::Glances at the wound on his leg and back at the CTO and FCO:: FCO: Good idea.

CTO_Benson says:
::Pulls the med kit off her shoulder and hands it to the XO:: XO: Here, Sir.

OPS_McDuggle says:
::Tries routing power through another section of the computer::

Host CO__Loran says:
::Finally reaches the next level::  Nurse: Go down this corridor about 10 meters and you will find a wall locker with some re-breathers, get one for each of us and return here quickly.

XO_Madson says:
CTO: I'll save it for someone more needy.  I can still walk.

Host CO__Loran says:
<Nurse> CO: Yes, Sir.  ::Runs down the corridor and to the wall locker.  In a couple of minutes she returns with 3 re-breathers and hands one to the CO and the other nurse::

CTO_Benson says:
XO: We'll need to get to Main Engineering to get the portable generators.

XO_Madson says:
CTO: Then I believe we should be heading there.  FCO: Up for another walk?

Host CO__Loran says:
::Puts the re-breather around his neck as it is not needed just yet and starts climbing up the Jeffries tube to the next level where the main shuttlebay is located::

FCO_Chottu says:
::Looks at the XO’s leg:: XO: I am.  Are you, Sir?

CTO_Benson says:
XO: Aye, Sir.  ::Heads for the Jeffries tube again and opens up the hatch.  Waits for the XO and FCO::

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The computer indicates that the impulse engines are on overload.

XO_Madson says:
FCO/CTO: Boy, you know the least the guy on the station could do is call for emergency help.  FCO: I'll be fine, I hope.  ::Follows after the CTO::

OPS_McDuggle says:
::Seeing what the computer is indicating, reroutes power through another section trying to get life support back up::

CTO_Benson says:
::Waits at the hatch for the limping XO and FCO to climb in.  Shakes her head::

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: The computer indicates that two torpedoes have been armed.

OPS_McDuggle says:
::Tries rerouting power through another section hoping this will do it::

CTO_Benson says:
XO: I'll go first.  ::Enters the Jeffries tube hatch::

Host CO__Loran says:
::Finally gets up to the next level and feels his leg stiffen even more from the climb.  Limps as fast as he can down the corridor towards the shuttlebay::

XO_Madson says:
::Follows after the CTO::

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: Hatches and doors all over the ship begin opening and closing.  The XO gets trapped in the hatch he is climbing through.

CTO_Benson says:
::Begins to climb down the ladder::

Host CDMDave says:
ACTION: Indicator lights on the computer core begin flashing wildly.

XO_Madson says:
FCO/CTO: Aahhh!!!  Cold, cold, cold!

FCO_Chottu says:
::Grabs a hold of the hatch trying to free the XO::
