Host SM_Pam  (Actd.mid)

Host SM_Pam says:
The Aries has just begun the first of the tests to evaluate the Aries' sensors as well as her other systems in preparation for a report to Starfleet. Unfortunately, the test has not been completed due to some technical difficulties.

Host SM_Pam says:
During the testing, a shuttle carrying the CSO was sent out to locate the correct probe and secure it. As the CSO finally locates the probe, little does she know that the Aries is in serious trouble.

Host SM_Pam says:
Back on the ship, the computer with an attitude, got the better of the Captain, and he ordered it shut down. As the CEO pulled the plug, she left the Triton without the necessary power to maintain vital ships' systems. Unless they can get the computer back up and running, the crew of the Aries will be in dire straights within a matter of hours.

Host SM_Pam says:
There is a way for the crew to survive but can they find the solution in time? Holding their breath is not an option.

Host SM_Pam says:
Can anything else go wrong? Perhaps "today is a good day to die".

CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
@COM: SB16: Base Operations, this is Lieutenant Pierce of the Triton... err... the Aries.  Do you read me?

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO: Cmdr, any suggestions?

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
::She takes a medical Tricorder off of her belt and scans everything trying to estimate how long they will have oxygen for until it is contaminated::

CTO_LtCmdr_Wolfe says:
::exits the turbo lift and enters Main Engineering::

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::also standing, in the dark:: CO: We can always evacuate, if we don't hear anything from Pierce or Starfleet in time.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
TO: Any luck on the Tac console Lt?

Host SM_Pam says:
<SB_OPS>Com: Aries: This is base operations. Go ahead Aries.

CEO_Lt_Shemara says:
::sensed the CTO upon his entrance to ME::

CEO_Lt_Shemara says:
CTO: Cmdr. Sir.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO: I hope it doesn't come to that  ::remembers the orders he has for abandoning the Aries and shudders::

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
::Reads the scans and sighs:: CO/XO: Captain, Commander, according to my scans we have two hours left until our oxygen depletes.

TO_LtJG_Anderson says:
CO: None Captain...were blind ::continues to tap the console for anything::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
TO: Keep at it Brian.  We'll get out of this somehow.

CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
@COM: SB16: The Aries has lost all power to her systems, including life support.  We've been having problems with the computer and I was ordered to take a shuttle into the asteroid belt to secure the probe.

CTO_LtCmdr_Wolfe says:
::smiles and nods:: ~~~CEO: That would be me. Any chance we're capable of... eradicating the computer intelligence without destroying the computer itself?~~~

TO_LtJG_Anderson says:
CO: Aye Sir.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO: Lahn are you near me?

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
~~~CSO: Any luck with the Starbase?~~~

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::leans into Yates' ear, as if to whisper something important, and says:: CMO: Unless it starts getting hot and heavy in here Doctor.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::realizes his dog is now trapped somewhere on the ship. Self: That's all I need!::

Host SM_Pam says:
<SB_OPS>COM: CSO: Lt. can you contact the Aries and inform them we will send assistance but it will be several hours. We only have the shuttles available at the moment.

CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
@~~~CMO: I'm in contact with Starbase 16 now and I just informed them of our situation.  How much time left on the Aries?~~~

CEO_Lt_Shemara says:
~~~CTO: Well sir, I was thinking that we could disconnect the computer relays that the artificial intelligence uses to process information.  If I can do that, I think, and it is only an assumption, I might be able to bring the auxiliaries online and get some power to life support.~~~

TO_LtJG_Anderson says:
::kneels down and looks inside the actual console looking for a loose "wire"::

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
::eyes widen as she hears the XO:: ~~~CSO: About two hours of oxygen left. And that is only an estimate on my part.~~~

CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
@COM: SB16: A few hours is too long!  The Aries only has two hours left!

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
CO: Yes, sir.  ::lets his eyes adjust to the soft glow of Yates' Tricorder::

CTO_LtCmdr_Wolfe says:
::nods:: ~~~CEO: Is there a chance we can... in the meantime... manually activate power without computer regulation and control? Might be dangerous, I'd rather do that than suffocate.~~~

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO: Cmdr, we need to start working on alternate sources of oxygen.  ::whispers:: XO: I need to speak to you privately for a moment.

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
~~~CSO: How long did they say until they could reach us?~~~ CO/XO: Lieutenant Pierce has made contact with the Starbase. ::whispers::

Host SM_Pam says:
<SB_OPS>COM:CSO: We will dispatch a shuttle immediately. Tell the Aries we are on the way. Sorry about the time factor, but perhaps you can do something until then. Good luck, operations out.

CEO_Lt_Shemara says:
~~~CTO: Well I might be able to tap the impulse drive I might be able to get life support online.~~~

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::steps over to the Captain, not losing track of Yates:: CO: Yes, sir?

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
~~~CTO: Khaar do you have any ideas?~~~ ::Looks around feeling the worried emotions around the ship::

CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
@::Sighs and closes the channel::

CTO_LtCmdr_Wolfe says:
~~~CEO: Sounds like an excellent idea. Life support first though. It would... at least give us more time.~~~

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::whispering:: XO: Lahn if we have to abandon ship the four top ranking officers are to begin self-destruct countdown.  Just not sure how we're gonna do it.

CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
@~~~CMO: Starbase 16 can only send us a shuttle and that will take a few hours.  We're going to have to think of something else.~~~

CEO_Lt_Shemara says:
~~~CTO: Agreed. ::begins the process::~~~

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::considers it for a moment:: CO: Perhaps it would be better to have the crew abandon early, and we would stay here until the last possible moment.  If there’s only four of us, the oxygen would last much longer.

CTO_LtCmdr_Wolfe says:
::works with Shemara to get life support online:: ~~~CMO: We're going to manually activate life support to give us more time.~~~

TO_LtJG_Anderson says:
::stands back up realizing he knows nothing about engineering::  CO: Captain permission to take a shuttle out and provide security and tactical support while were in the dark here?

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO: I had considered it. Let's see how things play out.  Thank goodness this isn't as big as the Triton.

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
CO: And we could use EVA suits for the four of us as well.  There's not enough EVA suits for the entire crew, but there is enough pods.

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
~~~CSO: What!!! Several hours!!!!! Tell those no good ingrates that we could be dead when they come!~~~

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO: That's an excellent idea.  For now let's concentrate on getting the oxygen we need to live more than two hours.

CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
@~~~CMO: I told them that and they offer their apologizes.~~~  ::Thought with sarcasm::

CTO_LtCmdr_Wolfe says:
::gets another idea:: ~~~CEO: I'm thinking. There is power going to the computer... even now to keep the artificial computer intelligence online. So... maybe I should go to the computer core and.. reroute power... so it doesn't go to the computer core.~~~

CEO_Lt_Shemara says:
~~~~CTO: This is going to take at least 10 minutes to tap the impulse into the life support systems.~~~~

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
CO: Aye, sir.

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
::looks over at the CO and XO.. she walks over:: CO/XO: Sorry to interrupt sirs but rescue shuttle will not get here for several hours. So if we don't get oxygen fast we will not live... ::voice trails off::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO: There has got to be an emergency start-up procedure somewhere.  Surely Starfleet wouldn't just put this computer in without thinking about the consequences

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CMO: What did you say Lt?

CTO_LtCmdr_Wolfe says:
~~~CEO: Ten minutes seems reasonable.~~~

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
CO: That we pretty much have no one to help us... at least not until the ship is out of oxygen.

CEO_Lt_Shemara says:
~~~CTO: Not a good idea.  The if there is power going into the core, the intelligence is going to be aware of your attempts and electrocutes you.~~~

TO_LtJG_Anderson says:
::stands back up realizing he knows nothing about engineering::  CO: Captain permission to take a shuttle out and provide security and tactical support while were in the dark here?

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
~~~CSO: Well they need to get their act together!~~~

CEO_Lt_Shemara says:
~~~CTO:I can do it from here.~~~

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO/CMO/TO: Oh great.  Why am I not surprised?

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
CO: Because this always happens to us.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
TO: Hang on a second Lt. Let me think here

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
TO: Brian, can you make it to the Shuttlebay and get it ready to leave when I give you the signal?

CTO_LtCmdr_Wolfe says:
~~~CEO: Right you are.~~~

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
::Wonders what the CO has planned up his sleeve::

CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
@~~~CMO: They'll get a piece of our minds when we get back.  There's not much I can do from here... should I continue my attempts with the probe?~~~

TO_LtJG_Anderson says:
::nods his head:: CO: Yes sir.

CEO_Lt_Shemara says:
::continues her work on the core relays and the impulse taps::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
TO: Do it.

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
~~~CSO: I guess so until the Captain tells me to order you to do something different.~~~

TO_LtJG_Anderson says:
::runs towards and enters the turbo lift::  TL: Shuttlebay 1

CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
@~~~CMO: Will do.  Keep me updated.~~~

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
~~~CSO: Of course.~~~

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CMO: Find out from Lt Pierce if she has that probe aboard.

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
~~~CSO: Do you have the probe aboard?~~~ CO: Asking now, sir.

CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
@ ::Zaps the probe, hoping to disable it::

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
CO: Sir could I make a suggestion?

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CMO: You know you can Lt.

TO_LtJG_Anderson says:
Self: Stupid...son of a... ::runs out of the turbo lift and sprints down the J-tubes towards the Shuttlebay::

CTO_LtCmdr_Wolfe says:
::checks on the computer intelligence's progress:: CEO: I wonder what the computer intelligence looks like. Maybe someone should pay a visit to the holodeck. You know... say hi.

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
CO: Why not activate the Computer and then order it to take us back to the Starbase. I know she has not been very obedient but it is better then sitting here without any oxygen.. or.. anything.

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
CO: The shuttlebay doors will not open.  If we blast a hole, we'd have no containments fields to stop from losing all our atmosphere.

CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
@~~~CMO: Preparing to beam it on board.~~~

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO: I had thought of that too, but if we do that, we'll get the crew out in the lifeboats first.

CTO_LtCmdr_Wolfe says:
::snaps his fingers:: Self: Wait a bloody tick.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CMO: I am not ready to try that just yet Lt., but I will keep it in mind.

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
CO: Understood, sir.

CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
@::Activates transporters to beam the probe into the shuttle::

TO_LtJG_Anderson says:
::arrives at the shuttlebay::  Crew: We need to move a Type 9 shuttle into position...then everyone needs to clear out.

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
Self: This is just not a good day.

Host SM_Pam says:
ACTION: The CEO's efforts prove effective sort of, and limited power courses into the life support systems but only at one third normal.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CMO: It's a good suggestion but it's too dangerous right now Ashley.

CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
@~~~CMO: Got it!~~~

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
CO: Why do you think that, sir?

CEO_Lt_Shemara says:
~~~CTO: Sir I got 1/3 power for life support.~~~

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
~~~CSO: Great job!~~~ CO: Lieutenant Pierce has the probe.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CMO: The computer could be even more unstable now

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
CO: That is true.. since it was shut down so abruptly.

CTO_LtCmdr_Wolfe says:
::smiles at the results:: ~~~CEO: Excellent work. I'll be right back... I'm going to pay a visit to... the computer core. I'm going to put on an EVA suit. That should protect me... somewhat from what it might throw at me. I like a blunt... frontal approach.~~~ ::moves to engineering locker to grab and EVA suit::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CMO: Contact Engineering and see how things are going please.

TO_LtJG_Anderson says:
::every crewmember clears the shuttles out of the way and exits the shuttle bay leaving Brian alone::

CEO_Lt_Shemara says:
::still working on the relays for the computer::

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
CO: Aye, sir. ~~~CEO: T'Ponga how are things in Engineering? Anything new to report?~~~

TO_LtJG_Anderson says:
::stepping into his EVA suit he moves over to the large shuttle bay doors:: *CO*: Captain I'm in position to manually open the shuttle bay doors on your command!

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
*TO*: Very good Lt.  I'll let you know soon.

CTO_LtCmdr_Wolfe says:
::starts putting on his EVA suit... smiling at the idea that he might just get a little more than what he's bargained for::

CEO_Lt_Shemara says:
~~~~*CMO*: I have got 1/3 of life support, the CTO is going to go into the core in an EVR suit to protect him from the computer should it decide to attack him.~~~~

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
*TO*: Go ahead and take her out Lt.

CTO_LtCmdr_Wolfe says:
::finishes suiting up... and leaves engineering:: ~~~CEO: I'll be back... hopefully.~~~

CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
@~~~CMO: Any further orders for me?~~~

TO_LtJG_Anderson says:
*CO*: Aye Sir  ::walks over and places two handles on the shuttle bay doors then magnetizes his boots::

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
~~~CEO: Understood.~~~ CO: 1/3 of life support has been restored... and Lieutenant Pierce wants to know what you would like her to do.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CMO: Ask her if she found out what was so special about that probe and report back.

CEO_Lt_Shemara says:
~~~*CTO: Understood Sir. ~~~~

TO_LtJG_Anderson says:
::pulls on one of the handles opening one door and walking towards the end of the shuttlebay::

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
~~~CSO: Have you discovered what was special about the probe?~~~

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
~~~CTO: Be careful Khaar.. If you get hurt I will beat you up later!~~~

CEO_Lt_Shemara says:
~~~~CMO: I will contact her shortly Ashley. How you holding up?~~~~

TO_LtJG_Anderson says:
::after opening the one door, he walks over to the next handle and pushes the other door to the other side of the shuttle bay::

CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
@::Runs a scan on the probe again:: ~~~CMO: Standby.~~~

CTO_LtCmdr_Wolfe says:
~~~CMO: If I get hurt, it'll be pretty hard for you to beat up a dead guy. Ha ha~~~

CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
~~~CMO: Nothing except for the special signal that led us to the probe.~~~

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
~~~CTO: That isn't funny!! Because I would find away!~~~

CTO_LtCmdr_Wolfe says:
::climbing in the Jeffries tubes, he makes it to the computer core deck... ::

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
~~~CEO: Everything is fine.. just peachy.~~~ ::her telepathy sounds irritated while speaking to CEO::

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
~~~CSO: So they made us get it for nothing?~~~

TO_LtJG_Anderson says:
::looks out the doors and sees the blackness of space, walking over to type 9 shuttle he enters and closes the door behind him::

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
CO: The probe has nothing special in it Captain. Only the signal that lead us to it.

CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
@~~~CMO: Probably just part of the mission.~~~

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CMO: Understood Lt.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::taps his Combadge:: *CEO*: Lt. can you hear me?

CEO_Lt_Shemara says:
~~~~CMO: Ashley, You must calm down.  Try to regain your composure.~~~~

TO_LtJG_Anderson says:
::takes off the EVA suit and stuffs it into a closet and sits down in the pilot seat and fires up the shuttle::

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
~~~CSO: Another task that was not needed. How is everything else out there?~~~

CEO_Lt_Shemara ::is surprised as her commbadge chirps:: (Badgetap.wav)

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
~~~CEO: I would but I have a whole ship's health to worry about.~~~

CEO_Lt_Shemara says:
*CO*: Shemara here Captain.

CTO_LtCmdr_Wolfe says:
::walks in front of the computer core entrance:: Self: May the Lord protect you in times of great... ::blinks:: ...I'm not religious. ::stops praying and opens the panel next to the computer core entrance... looking for the manual release handle::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
*CEO*: How are things going down there Lt?

TO_LtJG_Anderson says:
::throws the throttles forward::

CEO_Lt_Shemara says:
*CO*: Sir it is good to hear your voice.

CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
@~~~CMO: It's quiet, and there are lots of floating rocks.~~~

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
::She taps her Combadge:: *Medical Teams*: I want all teams to report to main areas of the ship. I need all crewmembers assessed to see how they are handling the lose of oxygen.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
*CEO*: Yours too Lt. How are you coming on the restart?

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
~~~CSO: It must be fun doing nothing.~~~ ::sounds humorous::

TO_LtJG_Anderson says:
COMM: Triton: Sierra 1 airborne!  Starting standard patrol pattern  ::starts scanning for any ships in the area::

Host SM_Pam says:
ACTION: With the impulse systems linked to life support there is some slight flickering of the bridge lights as they try and come back on.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
::Self: What the?:: XO: Was I seeing things?

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
::Looks up as the lights flicker:: Self: Come on! Please come on!

CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
~~~CMO: I can't imagine that I'm having much more fun then you.  Any luck with the life support?~~~

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
CO: No sir, I believe Shemara is making some progress.

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
~~~CSO: Not really. Some more was added but it still won't help for that long.~~~

CTO_LtCmdr_Wolfe says:
::pulls, then turns the manual release handle to open the computer core door::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO: Good it's a start.  Cmdr, do you have a feeling that maybe we're making this much harder than it needs to be?  I keep thinking we're missing the most obvious answers

TO_LtJG_Anderson says:
::makes a sharp turn, coming over the front of the Triton as the sensors scan the region of space::

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
::Looks over at the CO and XO::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
*TO*: Lt. report please.

TO_LtJG_Anderson says:
@*CO*: I'm beginning my patrol pattern now Captain...the shuttles sensors are scanning for any possible threats right now

CEO_Lt_Shemara says:
*CO*: Well sir I have the impulse taps for life support, Cmdr Wolfe is attempting to take the artificial intelligence offline by entering the core in an EVA suit, and I am still working on the computer relays to see if I can jump start the warp core without the computer interfering.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
*CEO*: Understood Lt.  You may have to switch to making sure we stay alive, but continue with your work for now.

CTO_LtCmdr_Wolfe says:
::enters the computer core room and takes a moment to breathe:: Self: Now... let's see if this computer will get nasty... or be nice.

CEO_Lt_Shemara says:
*CO*: Understood sir. Shemara out.

CEO_Lt_Shemara says:
~~~~CTO: Sir how are you doing?~~~~

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::notices Yates' glance:: CMO: Lieutenant?

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
XO: Yes, Commander?

CTO_LtCmdr_Wolfe says:
~~~CEO: I'm shaking like a guitar string in a rock concert. But... I'm about to attempt to manually cut off power to the computer core.~~~

CTO_LtCmdr_Wolfe says:
::moves as quickly as he can in the suit, to the computer core power distribution panel::

TO_LtJG_Anderson says:
::turns once again to the starboard and has the sensors do another scan::  *Bridge*: Sierra 1 turning to mark zero niner zero

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
*TO*: Keep me informed.  I want you and Lt Pierce to take up stations on either side of us.  If we have to evacuate I want you standing by in case of life pod malfunctions.  Got it?

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::just grins:: CMO: Ah, nothing.

CEO_Lt_Shemara says:
~~~~CTO: Well calm down sir.  You will do fine.  Just let me know what happens.  I am still working on the relays should your idea fail.~~~~

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
XO: There has to be something Commander. ::looks over at him::

CTO_LtCmdr_Wolfe says:
::opens the panel and starts looking at the data chips and internal workings of the panel:: Self: What am I looking for? What am I... oh... that looks sexy... ::realizes what's needed to cut power to the computer core::

TO_LtJG_Anderson says:
@*CO*: Understood sir...

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CMO: Lt. Have your medical teams reached their stations?

CTO_LtCmdr_Wolfe says:
~~~CEO: Thanks for the moral support.~~~

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
CO: They have, sir.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CMO: Good because if things don't start working out soon they may be needed

CTO_LtCmdr_Wolfe says:
::takes out the necessary chips... and tries to arrange them in a more... precise manner::

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
CO: Things better work out, sir or we will have to evacuate. ::sighs::

CEO_Lt_Shemara says:
~~~~CTO: Anytime sir.  We all need a boost every now and then.~~~~

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CMO: Maybe we can give ourselves a little bit of an edge Lt.

TO_LtJG_Anderson says:
@::performs some target practice on the debris field to make sure the tactical systems are up to par::

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
CO: We will see, sir. I do hope you are right.

CSO_Lt_Pierce says:
@::Makes her way out of the asteroid field and stays around the Aries::

Host SM_Pam says:
ACTION: Power to the main core is successfully shut down.

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CMO: What can you give us to slow our breathing down that won't totally incapacitate us?

TO_LtJG_Anderson says:
@::makes a passing run on the debris field with minimal phasers only::

CTO_LtCmdr_Wolfe says:
::blinks:: Self: Uh... might it have worked?

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
CO: I am not sure sir. Even if I did find something though I would not be able to replicate it for the whole crew since they are down.

CEO_Lt_Shemara says:
::stops her work suddenly::  ~~~~CTO: What did you do?  The core shutdown.~~~~

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CMO: I don't want it for the whole crew Lt.  Just keep it in mind for me now

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
CO: For you? Are you planning on doing something, sir?

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CMO: Not yet anyway Lt.  Just keep it ready

CTO_LtCmdr_Wolfe says:
::looks at the computer core... moves towards it:: Self: What a bunch of worry over a... ::stops:: ~~~CEO: I've successfully cut power to the computer core. Yay me!~~~

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
CO: I will have to get to Sickbay to get it. I will have them prepare something.

TO_LtJG_Anderson says:
@::fires the phasers and takes a steep lift straight up into space testing the maneuverability of the craft::  Self: Why did I not stay with being an FCO?

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CMO: Stay here for now.  Just com down to them and have it prepared okay?

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
CO: That is what I was planning on doing, sir. ::smiles::

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
CMO: Good. ::smiles back::

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
::She sends a COM to Sickbay telling them what to do::

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
::sits down and sighs, deciding engineering seems to be getting the upperhand, and the Captain was handling the few command decisions::

CEO_Lt_Shemara says:
::smiles at the CTO's remark::  ~~~~CTO:  Way to go sir.  Now all we need to do is get rid of the artificial intelligence and restart the computer core.~~~~

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO: We've got air but now we've got to make it last...any ideas?

TO_LtJG_Anderson says:
@Self: Ohh right because I get to do this...::fires the phasers again into the debris field:: as a tactical officer

CTO_LtCmdr_Wolfe says:
~~~CEO: I don't know where to start. I'd have to know where the artificial intelligence is stored. I'm going to take a look at the ship's schematics again.~~~

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
CO: Not really, sir, I'm sure engineering will get things under control with the time they bought themselves.

CTO_LtCmdr_Wolfe says:
::reaches into his suit and pulls out a 'cheat sheet', a PADD with the ship's schematics::

TO_LtJG_Anderson says:
@::pulls away from the debris and goes back into his patrol pattern providing fighter protection for the Triton::

CEO_Lt_Shemara says:
~~~~CTO: Understood sir.  Just let me know what you need from here.~~~~

Host CO_Capt_Knight says:
XO: Then let's see if we can figure out a way to tackle the computer

CMO_Lt_Yates says:
::She sits at a vacant console and sighs waiting for something to happen::

Host SM_Pam says:
ACTION: The proximity alarm on the CSO's shuttle goes off.

Host XO_Cmdr_Everitt says:
CO: We can either turn it on again, or wait for a tow.  There's no way we can go to warp without a fully operational computer system.  And we can't rewrite it from scratch.

CTO_LtCmdr_Wolfe says:
~~~CEO: I'd certainly like some herbal tea, mint, with four sugars... and milk.~~~

CEO_Lt_Shemara says:
*CO*: Sir, Cmdr. Wolfe has brought down the computer core.  We are now in the process of attempting to bring it back on line but without the artificial intelligence.  Will advise you when it is done.  Engineering out.
