CEO_Keorn says:
@Capt: If it was carried onboard then it could have bypassed the filters, and if they replicate faster than can be picked up then it would be easy for them to overwhelm the station

CIV_Knote says:
::Still uneasy about leaving an AT behind::

Host Capt_Jarins says:
@ ::nods:: CEO: True... But, Lt... It's DUST. ::emphasizes the last word to show that it's more dirt than anything::

CIV_Knote says:

Host CO_Winters says:
SO: Good, take your station.

CEO_Keorn says:
@::Moves around console and inserts IC chip::  Capt: True but that could be a by product of them or something to that effect.  I just want to know what they are feeding on.

Host CO_Winters says:
Civ: Thank-you, noted. FCO: How long till we enter the nebula.

SO_Weaver says:
CO:  Aye.  ::Sits down at SCI 1::

FCO_Jarek says:

Host Capt_Jarins says:
<Computer> @ ::spits back various error bleeps::

Host CO_Winters says:
*CEO* Our Comms maybe come distorted. We are going to launch a buoy so that if we loose contact your com badges will be able to get in contact with Starfleet Command.

Host CO_Winters says:
Civ: That buoy I mentioned.. Launch one please.

CEO_Keorn says:
@Noone: Damn ::Hits panel in front of himself and is showered with dust::

CSO_Nash says:
@ *CIV*: Did the computer come up with anything from that data I sent?

CEO_Keorn says:
@*CO* Aye sir, I will check in every hour unless there is something of import to report

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: 1 minute 10 seconds from the Nebula sir

CIV_Knote says:
::Prepares a class VI Comm probe::

Host CO_Winters says:
FCO: Hold on the perimeter until we launch the buoy.

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: Aye sir leaving warp

CIV_Knote says:
CO: Class VI probe launched.

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: Holding at outer rim sir

Host CO_Winters says:
FCO: Continue on course.

CEO_Keorn says:
@::looks around trying to find a pattern to the chaos::

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: Aye sir

CSO_Nash says:
@ CEO: I believe that the Universal translator was unable to find any pattern in the data I sent to the Triton

CTO_Yohanson says:
@Capt: how often did you used to clean the station?

Host Capt_Jarins says:
@ ::incredulously:: CTO: The environmental controls self-clean the station, just like any normal starship.

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: Entering the Nebula now sir

CIV_Knote says:
CO: Comm probe is up, running and in orbit near the station.

CTO_Yohanson says:
@Capt: Just making sure.

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: Reading some fluctuations in the ID systems sir, Compensating

CEO_Keorn says:
@::looks at environmental controls trying to track the source of the problems::

Host CO_Winters says:
All: Acknowledged

CIV_Knote says:
::runs a check on all systems::

CSO_Nash says:
@ Capt: You said that the computer will only access anything that is preceded by a "dustmites" Dimensions?

Host Capt_Jarins says:
ACTION: From an undetectable hull micro-fracture in one of the docking clamps on the dock, a stream of dust flies towards the comm probe and envelope it.

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: May I suggest launching some navigational Buoy's just to be on the safe side sir

Host Capt_Jarins says:
@ CSO: More or less, yes. The computer understands in analogous terms to anything and everything dust, by what we've found through trial-and-error.

SO_Weaver says:
CO:  I agree with the FCO, sir.  Sensor resolution is low.

CIV_Knote says:
COM: Station: Comm check.

CEO_Keorn says:
@Capt: Sir do you have any portable generators.  Or any shuttle craft that have not been powered up since this all began?

Host CO_Winters says:
FCO: Do it.

CSO_Nash says:
@ Self: Hmmm Curious

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: Aye sir

CIV_Knote says:
COM: Station: Elocks Station, I repeat comm check.

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: Launching Buoy #1 now

Host Capt_Jarins says:
@ ::listens... "crumb speck"???:: CEO: A single runabout in Bay 29, I believe.

CTO_Yohanson says:
@CSO: What’s so curious?

CEO_Keorn says:
@::Checks CSO's suit's power source for infestation::

SO_Weaver says:
CIV:  Is the Comm buoy operating?

CIV_Knote says:
CO: Captain, no response from the Station.  SO: It was working before we entered the nebula

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: Permission to run a distance check on the Buoy, To find launching distances

Host CO_Winters says:
Civ: Are we still receiving telemetry from the buoy?

CEO_Keorn says:
@Capt: Do you have any work suits with heavy workload arms?

CSO_Nash says:
@ CEO: It is curious how the computer excludes anything not having to do with dust

CIV_Knote says:
CO: Yes, looks fine.

SO_Weaver says:
CO:  LRS is showing a large mass.  Resolution is too low for identification, but it appears to be closing.

Host Capt_Jarins says:
@ ::thinks:: CEO: Maybe a workbee in one of the repair keels. But I'm really not sure.

CIV_Knote says:
CO: Problem must be at the Station end.

CIV_Knote says:
Mutters: Knew we shouldn't have left them there.

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: We are 500,000 Kms inside sir

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: Launching second nav. Buoy now

CEO_Keorn says:
@CSO: what if the "dust" is attracted to the computer systems of the equipment.  The Triton has deflectors to prevent contact, but the buoy doesn't.

CIV_Knote says:
::checks telemetry of comm probe again::

CSO_Nash says:
@ CEO: Then the buoys would probably become useless to them

Host Capt_Jarins says:
ACTION: Triton intercepts a very garbled and half-constructed signal from the comm probe, directed towards the mass on LRS. To the snowy effect of "return us..."

CEO_Keorn says:
@CSO: What do you mean?

CIV_Knote says:
CO/CSO: Something weird here.  Looks like something has "attached" itself to the probe.

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: 750,000 Kms in sir

CIV_Knote says:
CO: Garbled comm....something like "return us".

CSO_Nash says:
@ CEO: I believe that it would attract a mass of dust and begin to send false signals

CIV_Knote says:
ALL: Trying to clean up the comm.

Host CO_Winters says:
Civ: Was it directed at us?

CIV_Knote says:
CO: Was via the comm probe, but I don't think we were meant to hear it.

Host Capt_Jarins says:
ACTION: Station main power suddenly shuts down. Backup systems kick in, but proximity displays show a large "dirtmound" growing in the secondary station computer core (home of environmental controls)

SO_Weaver says:
CIV/CO:  Sir, it was directed somewhere near the mass on the long range sensors.

CIV_Knote says:
CO: I think it was meant for the Pakled vessel.

Host Capt_Jarins says:
@ ::looks around:: Great...

CEO_Keorn says:
@Capt: We need to find some way to divert the production of the dust from the power subsystems

CTO_Yohanson says:
@Self: That can't be good. CEC/CSO/Capt: I think someone doesn't want us here.

Host CO_Winters says:
FCO: Set course back to the station.

FCO_Jarek says:
:: Turns and looks at Mr. Knote and raises eyebrow::

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: Aye sir

CSO_Nash says:
@CEO: Sir I am getting readings of a dust build up in the secondary computer system of this station. It will choke out the life support systems

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: Course laid in sir

CEO_Keorn says:
@CSO: any chance we can manually remove the dust to give us more time?

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: Shall I pick up the Nav. Buoys on the way sir

Host Capt_Jarins says:
ACTION: With even more immediacy, the whole Away Team and Jarins are site-to-site beamed inside the computer core, where the dust mound has collected to form some crude "face"

CSO_Nash says:
@ CEO: With the way it is acting probably not likely

CIV_Knote says:
::Gets a puzzled look:: CSO: Could the Pakled have taken something with them?

CEO_Keorn says:
@::looks around shocked and pulls his Tricorder to scan the mound::

Host CO_Winters says:
FCO: Negative we can get them later.

CIV_Knote says:
SO: Part of something that wants to be rejoined?

CTO_Yohanson says:
@~~~~ DustFace: can you here my thoughts right now? ~~~~

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: Aye sir

CSO_Nash says:
@:: looks up at the core shocked by the appearance of a face::

Host Dust says:
@ ::in clarity, but through the female voice of the computer, with beeps and everything:: Release us...

CEO_Keorn says:
@::Tricorder reads billions of individual "mites" making up a whole::

CTO_Yohanson says:
@Dust: to where?

SO_Weaver says:
CIV:  Anything is possible, I suppose.  From what we have, I'd say that's most likely the case.

FCO_Jarek says:
:: Slumps back in his seat, almost passes out::

CEO_Keorn says:
@ Dust: We will, how were you trapped here?

CIV_Knote says:
SO: What if that dust stuff got separated, part at the station and part with the Pakled?

SO_Weaver says:
FCO:  Sir, everything okay?

Host CO_Winters says:
Civ: Give me the layout of the area.

CSO_Nash says:
@ Dust: How can we when you won't let us have control to do it?

FCO_Jarek says:
:: Shakes off the cob webs::

Host Dust says:
@ All: Release us... now...

CIV_Knote says:
CO: Aye sir. ::Brings up the area map on main view screen::

FCO_Jarek says:
SO: I believe so

CEO_Keorn says:
@ Dust: If you can help us understand how you were trapped we can realize you

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: Sir I just had a very strong sense

CEO_Keorn says:
@CSO: Could the environmental systems be trapping them here?

Host Dust says:
@ ::face just remains motionless... blank::

CIV_Knote says:
SO/CO: Lets recap...this dust stuff could be sentient...

CTO_Yohanson says:
@::freaked at the blank expression of Dust::

SO_Weaver says:
CIV:  Entirely possible, yes.

CIV_Knote says:
ALL: and part of it left with the Pakled and part is back at the Station.

Host Dust says:
@ You... will pay...

CSO_Nash says:
@ CEO: Sir, I may have a suggestion. We could use the dimensions of this mass of dust to see if we can get computer to release them

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: I recommend extreme caution

CIV_Knote says:
ALL: Now it's getting attention the only way it knows how.

CTO_Yohanson says:
@Dust: We want to help though!

Host Dust says:
ACTION: The mass on LRS suddenly clears to detect a half-wrecked Pakled freighter and a mass of the dust, heading towards Triton and the station.

Host CO_Winters says:
FCO: Yes, I don't want this stuff 'infecting' the Triton.

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: I sense Anger

CEO_Keorn says:
@Dust: we will realize you immediately

CEO_Keorn says:
@CSO: Try it

SO_Weaver says:
CIV:  I'd say that's the best theory we're got to this point...  ::looks at the beeping SCI 1 panel::

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: And a lot of it

CIV_Knote says:
::Looks at FCO:: All: Great, now we've ticked it off.

Host CO_Winters says:
Civ: Report

SO_Weaver says:
CO:  A mass of particles and a damages Pakled fighter have appeared on sensors.

Host CO_Winters says:
:: gets up and walks to the tactical station ::

FCO_Jarek says:
CIV: I don't believe it is we that made it angry

Host CO_Winters says:
SO: Excellent.

SO_Weaver says:
CO:  The particles are closing on our current position, as well as the station.

CIV_Knote says:
::Checks scans:: CO: LRS shows a huge "mass" moving our way.

Host CO_Winters says:
:: activates Red Alert ::

CSO_Nash says:
@:: Sends the dimensions of the dustmound along with the command to release environmental controls to keep particulate in the air contained::

Host CO_Winters says:
:: sarcasm ::

CEO_Keorn says:
@*CO* Sir we have a single area of the dust that has collected around the secondary power generators and we are trying to realize it, it has asked to be realized and returned

FCO_Jarek says:
:: Almost blacks out again::

Host CO_Winters says:
SO: Do you think the cloud can communicate?

Host CO_Winters says:
*CO* Can you communicate with it?

Host Dust says:
@ ::face disjoints for a few seconds as the computer processes::

Host CO_Winters says:
FCO: Increase to Warp 9, ETA to station?

FCO_Jarek says:
:: Hesitates:: Then sets warp 9

CEO_Keorn says:
@*CO* It has communicated with us but we seem unable to communicate with it in return

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: Aye sir ETA 5 minutes

CIV_Knote says:
CO: We'll get there just before that dust cloud does.

CEO_Keorn says:
@::checks Tricorder for signs of "release"::

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: Correction 3 minutes sir

Host CO_Winters says:
SO: Will the shields keep the dust away from us?

CSO_Nash says:
@CEO: I believe it might just be working

Host CO_Winters says:
SO: Scrap that can we beam the dust on the station out into space?

SO_Weaver says:
CO:  The deflectors should protect us.

Host Dust says:
@ ::face contorts and distorts into various figures of emotion as the environmental computer seems to trip over itself at various security checkpoints::

CIV_Knote says:
SO: Can we tell if anything is keeping these things separated?

SO_Weaver says:
CO:  It would be difficult to discern the dust from normal matter, but we might be able to get most of the particles off the station.

CSO_Nash says:
@ CEO: What is the deflector status?

CIV_Knote says:
SO: Presumably they'll just join up and go on their merry way.

CTO_Yohanson says:
@~~~~ Dust: Please, if you can understand me, listen. We don't want to hurt you, we want to help you, please, tell us how we can. ~~~~

Host CO_Winters says:
Civ: This transport could be tricky, do you want me to do it?

Host Dust says:
ACTION: A chunk of the cloud following Triton breaks off, conforms into a small mass, and shoots at a rapid speed towards Triton... almost like a torpedo

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: 1 minute 15 seconds from the station sir

SO_Weaver says:
CIV:  We can hope so...

CIV_Knote says:
::Thinks, his readers will never believe we're talking to dust::

CIV_Knote says:
CO: As you wish sir. ::waves at the console::

CEO_Keorn says:
@::moves to console and tries to pull up deflector status:: CSO: operational, but controls are sluggish

FCO_Jarek says:
:: Locks evasive patterns into computer::

Host CO_Winters says:
:: pulls up the transporter controls onto the tactical console ::

CSO_Nash says:
@ CEO: Sir I believe that it might be keeping it trapped here

Host CO_Winters says:

Host CO_Winters says:
Civ: Already are.

FCO_Jarek says:
:: Readies evasive Alpha 21::

Host CO_Winters says:
FCO: Evasive Action

Host Dust says:
ACTION: The environmental controls computer finally gives up fighting itself and shuts down in a hail of sparks. The dustface collapses into an indiscernible cloud in the whole room.

Host CO_Winters says:
All: I am trying to beam the dust. Energizing.

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: Alpha 21 Aye sir

CIV_Knote says:
::Looks down at console and wonders how he missed the flashing red light.::

CTO_Yohanson says:
@::coughs::

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: Their still on us sir

CEO_Keorn says:
@CSO: I'll deactivate it.  ::Shuts down the deflector::

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: Continuing evasive

SO_Weaver says:
CO:  Detecting power fluctuations onboard the station.

CIV_Knote says:
::Wonders if a large dust mop would work?::

CSO_Nash says:
@ :: smells the singed hair on his arms and realizes that he was showered by sparks from the console::

Host Dust says:
ACTION: The cloud is beamed out, but almost beams out the Away Team with it. The combined clouds now break into two, one towards Federation space and the other towards Pakled. The comm buoy, acting as a translator, transmits towards both directions "You shall pay for imprisoning us..."

CIV_Knote says:
SO: How about we negatively charge our hull, thus repelling the dust?

Host CO_Winters says:
*CEO* Are the station systems working again?

CIV_Knote says:
CO: Comm sir...::Plays the incoming comm:: "You shall pay for imprisoning us."

CEO_Keorn says:
@*CO* Sir the dust in the area has been removed, attempting restart of systems

CIV_Knote says:
::Looks up:: ALL: Now that doesn't sound like we made new friends.

CEO_Keorn says:
@::Moves to Engineering console and restarts primary systems::

Host CO_Winters says:
:: rolls eyes :: All: You know, its a really good thing this ship doesn’t go looking for a fight.

SO_Weaver says:
::nods quickly at the CIV::  CIV:  We should try out your idea.

CIV_Knote says:
CO: Station comm is operational again.

Host Dust says:
ACTION: Alongside the transmissions is a crude piggyback data stream being sent towards the nebula

Host CO_Winters says:
*CEO* Prepare to beam back we have a bigger problem

CEO_Keorn says:
@*CO* Station is returned to normal sir, ready for transport

CTO_Yohanson says:
@CEO:  That can't be good.

CIV_Knote says:
::While checking scans notes a data stream::

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: Maybe we could use the deflector array as a collector array.

Host Dust says:
<Jarins> @ ::looks around as things reboot:: CEO: Go... You've got your own ship to deal with.

Host CO_Winters says:
:: drops shields for a second and energizes the transports ::

SO_Weaver says:
CIV:  Are you picking up an extra signal on the comm carrier wave?

CIV_Knote says:
CO: Uh, skipper, there is a data stream being sent back to the nebula.

CIV_Knote says:
SO: yep.

Host CO_Winters says:
Civ: Sending a message to mommy are they I wonder...

FCO_Jarek says:
CIV: The Nebula is home to them

SO_Weaver says:
::traces the stream as far into the nebula as possible::

CIV_Knote says:
CO: Or asking for reinforcements.

FCO_Jarek says:
CIV: At least that is the sense I'm getting

SO_Weaver says:
::glares at the CIV::

CIV_Knote says:
::Looks at SO:: SO: What?

Host CO_Winters says:
:: re-raises shields :: *CEO, CTO, CSO* Report to the bridge.

Host CO_Winters says:

CIV_Knote says:
SO: You think they're happy here?

CEO_Keorn says:
::makes his way to TL:: TL: Bridge

Host CO_Winters says:
Civ: Send a message to the Pakled and the federation warning them of the incoming hostile and _don't_ use the word dust!

SO_Weaver says:
CIV:  I would think not.

CIV_Knote says:
SO: Call's 'em like I sees 'em. ::grins::

CTO_Yohanson says:
*CO* Aye sir. ::heads to turbolift:: Computer: bridge.

CIV_Knote says:
::Sends the message:: CO: Aye sir.

CSO_Nash says:
:: Materializes in the TR hears the orders and proceeds with all due haste to the bridge::

CEO_Keorn says:

SO_Weaver says:
::shakes his head and smiles, turning back to the panel::

Host Dust says:
<Pakled Command> COM: Triton: They are coming... But we have nothing to make things go, or to make things blow.

CEO_Keorn says:
::Moves to seat and brings up station::

CSO_Nash says:

CTO_Yohanson says:
::enters bridge and takes up Tac 1::

Host Dust says:
<Pakled Command> COM: Triton: We've seen them before, but they were not our friends. They did not help us go.

CSO_Nash says:
:: resumes his seat at SCI-1 as he is downloading the data::

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: The cloud seems to have broken off it's pursuit

Host CO_Winters says:
COM: Pakled Command: We are going to try and head them off. We may have found a way to stop them. Triton Out.

SO_Weaver says:
::barely dodges the CSO and scoots over to SCI 2::

Host Dust says:
ACTION: Triton begins reading sector-wide telemetry data from nearby starbases. The clouds are incoming. And now the whole nebula itself is moving.

Host CO_Winters says:
FCO: Set course to the nebula. Maximum warp. Find out what that signal is being sent to.

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: Aye sir

CTO_Yohanson says:
Self: This sucks.

CSO_Nash says:
CO: Sir the whole nebula is moving

Host CO_Winters says:
FCO: Woah, all stop.

Host CO_Winters says:
Civ: Try to hail the nebula.

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: Aye sir all stop

Host Dust says:
ACTION: Very fast moving offshoots of the nebula speed toward and impact on Triton's shields.

Host CO_Winters says:
FCO: Keep us away from the nebula.

CIV_Knote says:
CO: Sir? Hail the nebula?

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: Aye sir

CEO_Keorn says:
::does a double take at CO's order, and then realizes that it may work::

Host CO_Winters says:

Com: Nebula: This is Captain John Winters of the U.S.S. Triton, we mean you no harm. The imprisonment was an accident. Do you understand?

CTO_Yohanson says:
::prepares for impact::

CIV_Knote says:
CO: Sure why not...Self: I'm sure he talks to nebula's all the time.

Host Dust says:
COM: Triton: Your derivatives have desecrated our home ground. You contain us and kill us with invisible fields on your outposts. You will pay for our suffering!

Host Dust says:
ACTION: Triton rocks with the force of a quantum torpedo

CIV_Knote says:
::Eyes open wide:: Self: I'll be horned swaggled...it worked.

SO_Weaver says:
CO:  Are they talking about environmental control systems?

Host CO_Winters says:

CEO_Keorn says:
::fingers fly on boards compensating for power feeds::

Host CO_Winters says:
CEO: Reroute Emergency Power to ID.

CEO_Keorn says:
CO: already done sir

CSO_Nash says:
CO: Sir the very thing that keeps it away from us was keeping it trapped. It had to be introduced to the station from a container taken inside the station

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: ID systems back on line sir

Host CO_Winters says:
CEO: Thought you might have.

Host CO_Winters says:
Comm: Dust: I know what happened. Just stop your attack and we can make sure it doesn't happen again.

CIV_Knote says:
::Looks around:: Self: Ok, everyone's back and now the CO wants to play OPS...guess I'll just watch a bit.

Host Dust says:
COM: Triton: We became attached forcibly to the vehicle of the lesser ones and we were transferred to the prison on your outpost!

CTO_Yohanson says:
::Scans for any weakness in the dust::

SO_Weaver says:
Self:  Lesser ones?

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: It's not us their angry at sir

Host CO_Winters says:
Com: Dust: It was not meant as a prison. Your 'species' was mistaken as plain old dirt by the stations computer systems. As for the Pakled, we have no alliance with them. Had we known they had kidnapped you they would not have been allowed on the station.

Host CO_Winters says:
COM: Dust: We don't know what the Pakled intentions were, they may not have realized you were a life form. We thought you were just a standard nebula.

Host CO_Winters says:
FCO: Back us off high warp.

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: ID systems back off line sir

FCO_Jarek says:
CO: I'll do the best I can sir

Host CO_Winters says:
COM: Dust: Is there some way we can make up for your lose without any further lose of life.

Host Dust says:
ACTION: At the same time, bases within range detect larger, but similar, bursts coming towards them from the respective clouds

FCO_Jarek says:
