CIV_Knote says:
::Move over to Tac 2 and monitors tactical scans::

MO_Brehgorn says:
::exits the TL and walks into SickBay::

CIV_Knote says:
Self: Heh, and I know less about this than I do science.

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: We are 100,000 Kms from the cloud sir

CSO_Nash says:
CO: Sir may I suggest launching a sensor probe into the cloud to get us a closer look at the Camalott?

Host CO_Winters says:
FCO: Hold position.

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: Aye sir

CIV_Knote says:
::Checks how to launch a probe should the CO approve CSO's suggestion::

CEO_Keorn says:
CO: Sir the shuttles have been brought into specs with the readings we took and the defector will be able to produce a minimal pocket of stability while we move

Host Scooter says:
ACTION: Signal contact is reestablished with the freighter Camalott

MO_Brehgorn says:
::putters around SickBay making sure everything is in order::

OPS_Brehgorn says:
CO: We have reestablished the signal with the Camalott, sir.

CSO_Nash says:
CO: Sir?

Host CO_Winters says:
*MO*: Report to my ready room.

CIV_Knote says:
::Tries to obtain a targeting lock on the Camalott per Winters' previous suggestion::

Host CO_Winters says:
OPS: Acknowledged

MO_Brehgorn says:
*CO* aye sir

Host CO_Winters says:
CEO: You have the bridge.

CEO_Keorn says:
CO: Aye Sir

MO_Brehgorn says:
::walks back into the TL::

Host Scooter says:
ACTION: Triton lurches slightly as a gravitational eddy from the cloud catches hold of the ship

Host CO_Winters says:
:: gets up and walks into his ready room ::

MO_Brehgorn says:
TL: Deck 1

CEO_Keorn says:
::Moves around to the second officer's chair::

CIV_Knote says:

OPS_Brehgorn says:
::looks at CSO:: CSO: What was that, sir?

FCO_Jarek says:
:: Readjusts Tritons position::

MO_Brehgorn says:
::knocks on the door::

CSO_Nash says:
CEO: Sir if I may suggest. We could use a sensor probe to get us some better readings of what we are up against

CIV_Knote says:
::Frustrated punches buttons trying to obtain an automatic lock::

Host CO_Winters says:
MO: Enter

MO_Brehgorn says:
::walks into the Ready Room::

MO_Brehgorn says:
MO Tiara Brehgorn reporting sir

CEO_Keorn says:
CSO: Have you gotten one ready, will it operate within the cloud?

Host CO_Winters says:
MO: I see you haven't submitted all the logs from your department.

CIV_Knote says:
::Brings up basic instructions on the tactical console on targeting::

MO_Brehgorn says:
::looks surprised:: I was sure I had sir

CIV_Knote says:
::Quickly scans the data as it streams by::

CEO_Keorn says:
::Looks to the CSO::

OPS_Brehgorn says:
CSO: Any idea on how far in that cloud the Camalott is?

Host Scooter says:
ACTION: Triton starts to become pulled further into the cloud. No damage inflicted, but the ship is beginning to phase at the same rate as the station, and now the same rate as Camalott

FCO_Jarek says:
CEO: This cloud has an interesting effect on our ID systems sir

CIV_Knote says:
Self: Now where are the instructions "targeting for dummies"? ::snickers::

FCO_Jarek says:
CEO: They are beginning to overload

CEO_Keorn says:
FCO: Back us off

CSO_Nash says:
CEO: Sir I believe that now that we have been drawn in it couldn't hurt anything

FCO_Jarek says:
CEO: Aye sir If I can

FCO_Jarek says:
:: Initiates reverse thrusters::

CEO_Keorn says:
*CPO* Reroute power to the trusters

FCO_Jarek says:
CEO: No effect sir

Host CO_Winters says:
MO: Well, you were assigned to the Triton on Stardate 10003.23. And you are missing logs for 10003.23, 10003.30 and 10005.11. Those are three duty logs.

CIV_Knote says:
CSO/OPS: Did we ever determine what the Camalott's cargo was?

FCO_Jarek says:
CEO: We're going in

CEO_Keorn says:
FCO: Move us into the cloud and power up the deflector dish

OPS_Brehgorn says:
CIV: That's a negative ::looks at CSO for affirmation::

FCO_Jarek says:
CEO: Aye sir

CIV_Knote says:
::Frowns and checks shield status::

FCO_Jarek says:
CEO: Suggestion sir

CSO_Nash says:
CIV: I believe it was about 200 humanoids

CEO_Keorn says:
*CO* Sir we are being drawn into the cloud, we are unable to break away. I am moving us into the cloud and using the deflector dish to provide a stable pocket

CIV_Knote says:
CEO: Shields holding sir.

FCO_Jarek says:
CEO: Maybe we should ride it out

OPS_Brehgorn says:
::wonders if humanoids are cargo::

CSO_Nash says:
:: Preps a probe:: CEO: Probe ready for launch sir

FCO_Jarek says:
CEO: The main deflectors may increase the effect

CEO_Keorn says:
FCO: Maintain 1/4 impulse

CIV_Knote says:
CSO: So we can rule out the Camalott causing this cloud?

CEO_Keorn says:
CSO: Launch probe

FCO_Jarek says:
CEO: 1/4 impulse Aye

CEO_Keorn says:
CIV: What were the star charts like for this region before the cloud

CIV_Knote says:
::Looks over to see how the CSO launches the probe::

CIV_Knote says:
CEO: Checking.

Host Scooter says:
ACTION: The probe launches, and offers slight insight into the various temporal frequencies of the phase variations, but is shortly "phased" out of existence

OPS_Brehgorn says:
CEO: If I may bring this to your attention, sir...if we reach the Camalott and there are survivors, our transporters will not be able to function within the anomaly.

CIV_Knote says:
::Brings up the star charts::

FCO_Jarek says:
CEO: Sensors indicate the phasing effect is unilateral among all three elements sir

FCO_Jarek says:
CEO: We may better serve as we are

CEO_Keorn says:
OPS: Check our tractor beam's effectiveness

CIV_Knote says:
CEO: They were normal sir...nothing out of the ordinary.

OPS_Brehgorn says:
::checking tractor beam::

CSO_Nash says:
CEO: Sir I have just gotten some readings from the pod. First there is a large planet drifting in orbit around the Camalott, and second it is not we or the Camalott that are phasing, but space itself as in outside the cloud

Host CO_Winters says:
MO: If those logs are not properly submitted in one week a reprimand will be placed in your permanent record. I will of course make sure that these logs were not overlooked.

CEO_Keorn says:
CSO: What are your suggestions

CEO_Keorn says:
CSO: Are you saying that the Camalott is the gravitational center for the planet?

OPS_Brehgorn says:
CEO: Tractor Beams seem to be operational, sir.

CEO_Keorn says:
OPS: Ok, have targeting scanners ready to tow the ship if possible

CSO_Nash says:
CEO: I recommend that we proceed with caution and get those people and then ascertain what the phasing effect is about

CIV_Knote says:
::Stares open mouthed at CSO.  Where would a planet come from?::

OPS_Brehgorn says:
::prepares tractor beam::

CEO_Keorn says:
CSO: How is your piloting skills?

Host Scooter says:
ACTION: Triton suddenly receives a hail on old-style frequencies

FCO_Jarek says:
CEO: Permission to run a sectional scan of the planet core sir

CSO_Nash says:
CEO: Sir the Camalott is in orbit around the planet

CEO_Keorn says:
FCO: Go ahead

CIV_Knote says:
::Jumps at squawk on communications::

OPS_Brehgorn says:
CEO: Receiving message, sir

CSO_Nash says:
CEO: A little rusty sir

MO_Brehgorn says:
CO: aye sir

CEO_Keorn says:
OPS: Open channel

FCO_Jarek says:
:: Runs detailed scan of the planet core

CEO_Keorn says:
CSO: thank you

OPS_Brehgorn says:
::opens channel:: CEO: Channel open, sir.

Host CO_Winters says:
MO: Dismissed.

Host McCray says:
@ COM: Triton: Unidentified vessel, this is Captain Cailin McCray of the Federation freighter Camalott. Identify yourselves

MO_Brehgorn says:
::walks out of the room hanging her head::

CEO_Keorn says:
COM Camalott: This is Lt Keorn of the star fleet vessel Triton

CEO_Keorn says:
OPS: Id CO McCray

CIV_Knote says:
::Checks the Camalott's transponder ID against Starfleet records::

FCO_Jarek says:
CEO: I have the results of my scan of the planets core sir

Host CO_Winters says:
:: makes note on his PADD and walks onto the bridge ::

CEO_Keorn says:
COM: McCray: We are here to investigate the EM Cloud you are in and to ascertain your condition

CEO_Keorn says:
FCO: Report

CIV_Knote says:
CEO: The transponder ID checks out...It is the Camalott.

OPS_Brehgorn says:
::runs an id check:: CEO: Captain McCray was the skipper of the Camalott, which was presumed lost in space with all of her crew.

FCO_Jarek says:
CEO: The core is highly Magnetized sir

FCO_Jarek says:
CEO: Reason unknown

CEO_Keorn says:
FCO: Understood

CIV_Knote says:
::Scans surrounding space for any other ships::

CSO_Nash says:
CEO: Sir, In addition to the crew of both ships, I am also detecting some 3.5 million pre-warp era inhabitants on the planet below

FCO_Jarek says:
CEO: However the warp cores of both the Triton and Camalott are effecting the matrix

OPS_Brehgorn says:
::looks at CSO in amazement::

Host McCray says:
@ COM: Triton: Excuse my total surprise at you calling yourself Federation, Lieutenant is it? Your ship design is completely different from what we know of.

CEO_Keorn says:
CSO: Any satellites or detection risk?

CIV_Knote says:
CSO: You're just full off surprises aren't you? ::laughs::

Host CO_Winters says:
CEO: Report.

CEO_Keorn says:
COM: McCray: What is the date as you know it?

CSO_Nash says:
CIV: Good sensors

CEO_Keorn says:
CO: Sir we were being pulled into the cloud so I ordered us in at 1/4 impulse

OPS_Brehgorn says:
CO: We've made contact with the Camalott, sir.

CIV_Knote says:
::Nods to CSO and smiles:: Self: So now what do we do with this planet?

CEO_Keorn says:
CO: We are in communication with a CO McCray who is the skipper of the Camalott

Host McCray says:
@ ::without failure:: COM: Triton: Stardate 2105.18 (OOC FYI: That would be like -200 years, to coincide with the 22nd century date of ship)

Host CO_Winters says:
Ops, CEO: Very well.

OPS_Brehgorn says:
::Raises eyebrow in surprise::

CEO_Keorn says:
COM: McCray; Sir here is my Commanding officer, CO Winters

Host CO_Winters says:
Comm: Camalott: Captain the current Stardate is 10005.18

CIV_Knote says:
Self: Humph, 200 years in a plasma cloud?

CEO_Keorn says:
::Looks to Winters to see if he wants Keorn to stay in Second officers chair::

Host CO_Winters says:
CEO: Nods.

Host McCray says:
@ ::inaudible gag:: COM: Triton: How can it be 10005.18?!?!? We've only been here a week! And is this Benjamin or Gordon Winters that I'm speaking to?

CIV_Knote says:
::Loud whisper:: CEO: Is the Camalott aware of that planet and have they made contact with it?

CSO_Nash says:
CO: Sir The sensor pod has also detected 3.5 million pre-warp era inhabitants on the planet which the Camalott is orbiting

MO_Brehgorn says:
::heads back down to sickbay in the TL::

CEO_Keorn says:
::Equally loud whisper:  CIV: Unknown but thank you for the reminder.  ::Smiles::

Host CO_Winters says:
:: shakes head trying to remember where he has heard those names before:: Comm: Camalott: Those names, are the names of my great-great grandfathers

OPS_Brehgorn says:
::looks at CO in disbelief::

Host McCray says:
@ COM: Triton: Who am I speaking to, then??? And what century is this?!?!

Host CO_Winters says:
COM: McCray: I am Captain John Winters, its the 24th century.

OPS_Brehgorn says:
::whispers to CSO:: CSO: I wonder if Captain McCray realizes he's engulfed within an anomaly?

CSO_Nash says:
SO: IF  you would let me fill you in

CSO_Nash says:
OPS: From his first statement I highly doubt it

SO_Weaver says:
::Steps to his panel::  CSO:  By all means, sir.

OPS_Brehgorn says:
::nods in affirmation at the CSO::

Host McCray says:
ACTION: Triton's computer is finally able to down convert its transmission enough to allow visuals

OPS_Brehgorn says:
CO: Sir, we now have visual.

CIV_Knote says:
CSO/OPS: Must be some kind of time dilation for him to think they've only been here a week.

CEO_Keorn says:
::expecting harsh reaction to a Klingon from McCray::

CSO_Nash says:
CO: Sir I am able to get visuals now

MO_Brehgorn says:
::gets to sickbay feeling a little dizzy so she lies down on a biobed::

Host McCray says:
@ COM: Triton: ::sighs:: We have just been here for a week, studying in a duckblind this new civilization. Our shuttle is reported lost, and now you say my ship has been caught for 200 years?

OPS_Brehgorn says:
CIV: Agreed.

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: Holding 100,000 Kms from the center of the cloud sir

OPS_Brehgorn says:
::opens visual::

CIV_Knote says:
::Checks ship's chronometer...looks fine::

Host CO_Winters says:
COM: McCray: This cloud must be slowing down time for you, slowing down time for both of us I would imagine. I suggest we both try to get out of here.

Host McCray says:
@ ::stares at the screen, studying the odd bridge, the odd uniforms... the odd forehead on one person::

CSO_Nash says:
:: in an aside to the SO:: SO: We are currently in the cloud heading for the Camalott, it is orbiting a planet of about 3.5 million pre-warp inhabitants, it is not us that is phasing but space outside the cloud

OPS_Brehgorn says:
CO: Should we be concerned with the millions on the planet's surface?

Host CO_Winters says:
:: sees the Captain and old bridge for the first time ::

MO_Brehgorn says:
::falls asleep crying softly on the biobed::

CEO_Keorn says:
::nods to the CO of the Camalott::

Host CO_Winters says:
Ops: It is probable that they have been here living here since they have existed.

OPS_Brehgorn says:
CO: Understood, sir.

CSO_Nash says:
SO: I know it's a lot to ingest at one time

FCO_Jarek says:
:: Looks up at view screen and notices the Camalott bridge crew::

Host CO_Winters says:
:: gestures to the CEO :: Comm: McCray: This is my second officer, Lt. Keorn.

Host McCray says:
@ ::thinks to himself "what race is that?!?!":: COM: Triton: Captain, I will trust you for this time being... However I still have a crew down on the planet, no matter what time period this is

OPS_Brehgorn says:
::wonders how anyone could have worn such silly uniforms::

CIV_Knote says:
::Tries to access original orders for the Camalott::

SO_Weaver says:
CSO:  That's...an understatement, sir.

OPS_Brehgorn says:
::assists CIV::

Host CO_Winters says:
Com: McCray: We will try to beam them from the surface, although we have been having trouble with our transporters inside the cloud

CSO_Nash says:
CO: Sir, did he say he had crew down there? Self: Thwaps forehead:

OPS_Brehgorn says:
::looks at CO:: CO: Transporters will not function. I recommend an away team.

Host CO_Winters says:
Ops: See if you can pull up the orders, manifest, etc on the Camalott.

OPS_Brehgorn says:
CO: Aye sir.

Host CO_Winters says:
CSO: Yes he did... Is the cloud effecting the Tritons internal systems?

CSO_Nash says:
CO: Sir I suggest that we scan the planet and see if we can get some kind of idea what the inhabitants look like and how they dress

CIV_Knote says:
CO: I can't get the auto targeting to work.

Host McCray says:
ACTION: At regular intervals, Triton begins to shake lightly.

CEO_Keorn says:
CO: Sir the Camalott may have some of that info as well

FCO_Jarek says:
:: Runs a historical check on the Camalott::

Host CO_Winters says:
CSO: If we sent a shuttle into low orbit or even inside the atmosphere, would the transporters work?

OPS_Brehgorn says:
::accesses computer:: CO: It appears that their original orders were scientific in nature...simply to study this planet and its inhabitants.  During their mission, they lost contact and were reported missing...never to be seen until now.

CIV_Knote says:
::Spreads legs a bit to compensate for the shaking::

Host CO_Winters says:
CEO: If they are on some kind of top secret mission they might not reveal everything.

CEO_Keorn says:
CO: True, our other option would be to dock with them and go aboard

OPS_Brehgorn says:
CO: If they were on a top secret mission, there are no records, sir.

CIV_Knote says:
OPS: Any idea where the Camalott was suppose to be?  Obviously that planet wasn't here.

OPS_Brehgorn says:
CO: ...and most such records have been de-classified.

Host CO_Winters says:
Ops: There should be some records on what this ship was carrying at the time.

Host CO_Winters says:
COM: Camalott: How many crew members do you have down there?

CEO_Keorn says:
CSO: Can sensors tell us anything about the cargo of the Camalott?

OPS_Brehgorn says:
CO: Standby, sir.

CIV_Knote says:
::Finishes reading the targeting instructions and tries again::

MO_Brehgorn says:
::wakes suddenly::

OPS_Brehgorn says:
CO,CIV: This planet doesn't exist in our time...something existed here in Camelot's time.

CSO_Nash says:
CO: I believe their standard away team was 8 officers sir

CIV_Knote says:
::Auto targeting fails again::

Host CO_Winters says:
CSO: So far nothing has been standard about this mission.

CSO_Nash says:
:: Uses sensors to scan  the Camalott

CIV_Knote says:
OPS: But their time was "our" time when they started.

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: My historical check on the Camalott was that they we're supposed to be out here extracting mineral deposits. If they did anything else it was on their own sir

Host McCray says:
@ ::loses contact with Triton... systems suddenly start failing slowly for no known reason::

Host CO_Winters says:
:: watches as the screen goes blank ::

Host CO_Winters says:
Ops: Get them back.

OPS_Brehgorn says:
::scratches head as he looks at CIV in confusion::

OPS_Brehgorn says:
::scrambles wildly to get systems back online::

Host CO_Winters says:
Civ: Options: Are the tractor beams working, we need to get both of us outta here.

Host CO_Winters says:
CEO: Engine Status.

OPS_Brehgorn says:
::attempts to reroute power from non-essential systems::

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: Could it be the Captain didn’t expect to encounter a civilization sir

CIV_Knote says:
::Shrugs at CO:: CO: Last I heard tractor beam was working. ::Looks at CEO::

CEO_Keorn says:
CO: Engines will only work at minimal levels when we were being pulled in they were being overloaded while we tried to pull away

CEO_Keorn says:
CO: Tractor beam was reported operational

Host CO_Winters says:
CSO, SO: We need to know what is causing all this. Get to work.

OPS_Brehgorn says:
CO: Tractors not functioning.

Host CO_Winters says:
Civ: Can you extend our shields around their ship?

CIV_Knote says:
::Frowns at OPS::

CIV_Knote says:
CO: Need to be right on top of them Skipper.

CIV_Knote says:
CO: But yes we can.

Host CO_Winters says:
FCO: Get us a close and we can.

OPS_Brehgorn says:
::shrugs shoulders::

Host CO_Winters says:
Civ: Prepare to extend shields.

CEO_Keorn says:
CO: Sir we can doc with the Camalott and evacuate the crew

CIV_Knote says:
::Looks to CEO to confirm::

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: As close to what sir?

CEO_Keorn says:
CIV: Nods

CSO_Nash says:
CO: Sir, I believe I have found the reason. The phasing that is going on is equal to the pulsation of our combined warp fields. It is starting to equal our pulsation rate

CIV_Knote says:
FCO: No more than 800 meters from the Camalott.

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: Aye sir

Host CO_Winters says:
FCO: 800 meters.

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: 15,000 Kms sir and closing

OPS_Brehgorn says:
::Whispers to CSO:: CSO: We should take engines offline briefly and see if the phasing discontinues

CEO_Keorn says:
CSO: What is the source of the pulses

CSO_Nash says:
CEO: It appears to be caused by our warp fields

CIV_Knote says:
::Finger poised, ready to extend shields.::

CIV_Knote says:
::Checks proximity to Camalott::

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: 1,000 meters and closing

CEO_Keorn says:
CO: I cannot say what dangers we face by shutting down our warp core 

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: 800 meters and holding sir

CIV_Knote says:
::Hits button, shields shift::

OPS_Brehgorn says:
CO: I recommend we cut off the Camelot’s engines, sir.

CSO_Nash says:
CO: Sir I believe that the sensor data before was erroneous. The inhabitants appear to be very neanderthal and the planet is about 2 billion \years old. It appears that their evolution has stagnated in proportion with this anomaly

Host CO_Winters says:
:: nods at Ops :: CSO: What will happen if we do cut their engines.

CIV_Knote says:
CO: Shields extended sir. Holding.

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: ID systems dropping sir,70%

Host CO_Winters says:
SO: Status?

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: I'll need more power to hold them steady sir

Host CO_Winters says:
Ops: Send more power to the impulse engines.

CSO_Nash says:
CO: I believe the phasing would be proportional to the Camalott's outputs sir
