Summary: The crew of the Triton has returned to the ship, although the CIV had to be beamed aboard almost missing the ship's departure.  All repairs are complete and the ship is ready for patrol.  The USS Triton has just departed McKinley.

The crew has enjoyed a long 3 week R & R while the ship received repairs from an explosion suffered during their last mission.  Also with recent events of the ship has been equipped with a new mission specific pod.

The new tactical pod is attached and ready to be put through its paces.  The installation of the new systems went smoothly.  Which was to be expected with the CTO and CEO overseeing the project.  The Triton was fortunate to have such an honorable crew.

The ship is under impulse on a heading for the Romulan boarder with orders to proceed to warp once passing the marker buoys.  Once there the ship will undergo routine tactical and combat practice maneuvers.  A simple shakedown run.  Should be simple….

ACTD is proud to present the USS Triton in "We Do Have Enemies"....Chapter One...."The Shakedown Run".......Stardate 10508.04

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
XO: Aye Lieutenant

CNS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
CTO:  Yes. I have.  I have two children and another on the way.  I need to go have a check-up here in the next day or so.

TO_LTjg_Cerdan says:
::Taps a console to open the hatch and nothing happens.::

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
EO_Lt Johnson:  Son you are in command for now.  You know the drill.

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
XO: Aye ma'am warp 6

TO_LTjg_Cerdan says:
*CTO*: Chief, I'm trying to gain access to the pod, but the hatch on deck 16 wont open.

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
CNS: I look forward to it

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
:: feels the different vibration of the engines going to warp and rejoices:: Self: Adventure finally.

Action: K`Vas rises and enters his ready room.  Getting a cream soda from the replicator, he sits at his desk and begins to straighten out the CNS orders.  Within minutes, he hears the familiar sound of the warp engines powering, in a flash the Triton is at warp.

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
:: feels the ship lurch slightly as it goes to warp :: Self: That seemed a bit jerky.

CNS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
CTO:  Me too.

CIV_LtCmdr_Mrlr says:
::stifles another yawn and checks the sensors again, wondering how the twins were doing back on Earth::

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
::feels the lurch:: Self: That is not supposed to do that.

Action: Reaching for his drink he notices the fluid in the glass in rippling, there was a vibration but from where?  He looks out the window instinctively at the new pod just in time to see a brilliant explosion. The large Klingon dives for the far side of the ready room but is caught mid flight be the impact of the shrapnel.  The force of the explosion vents the observation lounge to space, collapses the CO's private turbolift, one turbolift shaft on the bridge, and causes many power conduits to rupture on the bridge and in the ready room.

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
::hears the OPS and leans over:: OPS: Ensign be careful what you wish for

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
:: feels the ship shudder :: Self: What was that?

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
*TO* :be there in a minute

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
FCO: Come on Lieutenant! This what we all enrolled for.

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
::TL stops on the bridge and tumbles out::  All : What the hell was that?

TO_LTjg_Cerdan says:
::Feels the ship rock and instinctively drops to the floor.::

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
*Bridge*: Something going on up there? I just felt the ship shudder.

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
::quickly goes over his controls::

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
::Tries to interrupt the power surges in the bridge::

CIV_LtCmdr_Mrlr says:
::hangs on to the console as the ship shakes and an explosion is felt.  Ducks as sparks fly everywhere and the power flickers::

CNS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
::drops to the floor, instinctively protects her unborn child::

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
XO: Ma'am we better drop out of warp

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
CTO:  Okay, what was that?  

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
*CO*: Captain, you may want to report to the bridge.

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
::flies to her engineering station::  Computer: Open bridge engineering station Voice ID J'Loni Mo'Bri Randolph Gamma Alpha 90953 Pi

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
*CMO*: There was an explosion Commander.  We're checking on it.

Action: The ship drops out of warp.  Consoles on the bridge explode.  The new OPS finds his hand burned from the explosion.  The CIV is knocked out of her chair hard

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
FCO:  Make it so.

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
*XO*: Do we have injuries?

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
XO: Helm answering all stop ma'am

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
Computer: Voice ID Recognized as J'Loni Mo'Bri Randolph CEO USS Triton.

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
::gets up and goes over to OPS::

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
CTO:  Can you tell where the explosion came from Commander?

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
::hands fly over the console as red lights begin to light up:

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
:: Feels jolts of pains running from his fingers up to his shoulders and realizes his hands are seriously burned by the power surges::

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
::kneels next to him:: OPS: Stay calm ensign

CIV_LtCmdr_Mrlr says:
::hits the deck and hears her ears ring for a moment as she feels the pressure build up and release from a hull rupture::

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
OPS:  Any reports coming in?

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
XO: the stern of the ship

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
:: motions to one of her medics to get a team ready just in case ::

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
XO: The ensign is injured may I have the med kit

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
*Engineering*: I need a report now. Move it.

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
XO; minor reports of injuries coming in

TO_LTjg_Cerdan says:
::Gets to his feet as the alert klaxons sound.:: *CTO*:  What happened? Responding to alert station.

CNS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
::she slowly gets up as she adjust her uniform and rubs her abdomen::

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
::Passes the med-kit to the FCO.::  *CMO*:  Can you spare a doctor on the bridge?

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
XO: Sir something hit us and I am just now getting the reports from engineering.

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
FCO: the reports first please. I can handle the pain.

CIV_LtCmdr_Mrlr says:
::scrambles to her feet and looks at her console:: XO: Ma'am!  It came from the area of the Captain's ready room. ::hurries over to the door and tries to open it::

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
*TO*: An explosion to the stern of the ship.

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
::opens the med kit then place a hand on the OPS shoulder and push him back down::

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
*CEO*:  Keep me informed.  

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
CIV:  Aye.

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
*CO*:  Captain, come in, please.

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
OPS: Take it easy my friend

Information: There is no response from the captain.

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
:: lets the FCO help him and hold out his hand trying not to look::

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
::reaches out with her senses to see if she can feel the captain::

TO_LTjg_Cerdan says:
*CTO*: Can you locate it any closer? I have teams standing by.

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
*XO*: I'll be right there. Can you give me an idea of how many injured we have? :: grabs a med kit and motions to the team to follow her ::

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
::take a dermal regenerator out and runs it over his hands::

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
FCO: Thank you sir.

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
OPS: Anytime... I told to be careful what you wish for

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
::smiles::

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
CTO:  You have the bridge, Commander.  I'm checking on the captain.  ::Heads to the Captain's ready room.::

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
*TO*: help out as much as you can, and use emergency welders where necessary.

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
XO: yes ma’am!

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
FCO: Talk about a fast injury. Ouch!

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
:: enters the turbolift and calls for the bridge ::

CIV_LtCmdr_Mrlr says:
::sees there is no power to the door to the ready room:: XO: Can't get the door open.  Hold on...::checks the panel:: No power.

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
OPS: At least your first mission you didn't have armed guards following you around

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
XO: Wait a minute, internal sensors are coming back up and I have many hull breaches and I am getting some pretty strange readings from the pod.

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
::puts everything back in the kit and closes it:: OPS: Good as new. Now get those reports going

TO_LTjg_Cerdan says:
*CTO*: I can't respond if you don't narrow down the location Sir!

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
::Grabs the door and tries to open it.:  CTO:  Can I get some help opening the door.

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
::stands up and holds a hand out for the ensign

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
XO: I will try to get that door open for you.

CNS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
::she returns to her place on the Bridge::

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
:: runs to the XO and leans into the door with her::

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
::checks his console and tries to see where the ship is damaged::

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
CEO:  Thank you.  ::Tries to pull at the door to open it.::

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
::places the kit back and get back to his console::

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
XO: weapons and shields are down

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
CIV:  Try pulling on your end.  I'll pull here.

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
:: steps onto the bridge with the medical team :: All: Ok, where's the patient?

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
CTO:  Get a team on it right away.

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
::runs a check on navigational systems and engines::

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
XO: I'm coming

CIV_LtCmdr_Mrlr says:
::pulls on the other side of the door from the XO:: XO: All we need to do is break the catch.....::grunts:: I hope...

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
CMO:  The OPS suffered a burn to the hand.  If you could please treat him.

Action : The ready room door begins to move.  It opens to reveal what looks like a war zone

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
::puts more weight and strength into the door:: XO: Get me a phaser and I will burn it open.

TO_LTjg_Cerdan says:
::Gets impatient and taps his badge again.:: Computer: Location of explosion that just occurred.

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
XO: I am fine now, Lieutenant Arca took care of my wounds.

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
::looks in and searches the room for the captains emotional waves::

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
::looks over to the RR door and stare in shock::

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
::stands up and moves toward the door::

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
Self:  Oh my God!  ::Shouts out to the Captain.::  CO: Captain!  Where are you?

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
:: nods :: XO: On it ma'am. :: moves to the operations console :: OPS: Well young man, playing with fire again? :: tries to keep the mood light as she pulls out her tricorder ::

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
All: Nothing solid coming through yet. 

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
CMO:  Doctor, belay that order.  We need you in here.

Information : No response from the captain

CIV_LtCmdr_Mrlr says:
::moves into the room squeezing around the debris and climbing through it:: CO: Captain?  Captain K'Vas!

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
::Looks around the ready room for the captain, wondering where he is.  Overturns debris just lying on the floor.::

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
CEO: give me an update on hull breaches

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
XO: Sir it is a disaster here.    He has to be here.

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
:: looks up :: *XO*: Lieutenant?

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
::blushes at the CMO's comment::

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
CTO: I will just as soon as I can sir.  I am a little busy right now.

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
::starts to move some heavier piece to check under them::

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
*CMO*:  The Captain is going to require immediate medical attention, that is once we find him.

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
:: pats Polo on the back :: OPS: I'll see you later in sickbay.

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
*Lt. Johnson*: What is the status of engineering???

CIV_LtCmdr_Mrlr says:
::squeezes under a large beam and sees the CO's hand under a pile of debris:: XO: Here!!  He's over here...get the doc and hurry.

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
OPS: Is the RR emergency field stable?

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
CMO: yes commander.

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
::still reaches out and does feel some random feelings.::

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
::looks over his shoulder toward the CIV and moves that way::

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
::Responds to the CIV.  Heads over to the Captain laying on the floor bleeding.::  CMO:  Captain needs immediate medical attention.

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
:: heads for the ready room and enters :: XO: Lieutenant, what is it? :: sees the carnage and looks for the Captain ::

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
CMO:  Over here, Commander.

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
:: rushes to his side :: CO: Captain!

EO_Lt_Johnson says:
*CEO*: All emergency bulkheads and force fields are in place and holding.  Warp and Impulse are offline.  ODN Relays are blown out in Jefferies tube b43.  Have Alpha and Beta teams already on it.  Bringing fusion reactors 6 and 9 online for emergency power..

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
::tries to give an order to the damage reports and get an estimate to the damage. Tries to isolate the critical areas of the ship first and then the rest of the non vital areas::

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
XO: He is here but hurt badly?

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
::exits the RR and looks at the CTO::

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
::Removes some debris on top of the Captain.::

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
CTO: Sir I would like to permission to take a shuttle out to see the damage

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
CEO:  Not sure.

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
CMO:  Doctor, please, is he okay?

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
CIV: Can you use the sensors Commander?

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
:: runs her tricorder over the Captain's body :: XO: I need help in here.

CIV_LtCmdr_Mrlr says:
::sees that the doctor is there with others and climbs back over the debris towards the bridge:: OPS: Let me try.

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
XO: Engineering reports All emergency bulkheads and force fields are in place and holding.  Warp and Impulse are offline.  ODN Relays are blown out in Jefferies tube b43.  Have Alpha and Beta teams already on it.  Bringing fusion reactors 6 and 9 online for emergency power..

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
FCO: do it, if you can reach it without being injured.. that’s an order

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
CMO: What do you need.

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
XO: It's not good. I need to get him to sickbay and fast. Are the transporters working?

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
*Sickbay*:  This is Lt. Sommers.  Please send a medical team immediately to the Captain's ready room.

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
CTO: Understood sir and thank you sir

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
CMO:  We should have limited power.  I will check on transporters.

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
CEO:  Lt., do we have transporters?

CIV_LtCmdr_Mrlr says:
CTO: Commander....let me try and get the external sensors up first.  We don't know if the explosion was caused by an enemy ship out there.  The FCO would be a sitting duck in a shuttle.

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
:: nods::

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
*Lt. Johnson*: Priority one is SIF maintain them.

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
*XO*: A team is on the way ma'am.

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
CIV: We need to see if the explosion's source was external Commander, or so I think.

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
Computer: Is main shuttle bay intact?

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
CIV: try and work fast

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
CIV: Don't have faith in my abilities?

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
*OPS*:  I would like you to reroute any power you can spare to the transporters so that we can get the Captain to sickbay.

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
XO: Ma'am, can I get the counselor to give me a hand?

Computer says:
FCO: Negative the main shuttle bay is damaged

CIV_LtCmdr_Mrlr says:
OPS: Try and open a channel to Starfleet and tell them our situation.  We aren't that far from the Sol System.

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
CMO:  Aye, please do.

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
Computer: Have about the auxiliary shuttle bay?

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
XO: Transporters Are ::looks:: Not doing good.  Risky at best.  Don't trust them.

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
FCO: there goes that idea

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
::shuts down any non essential power and reroutes power to the transporters::

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
CMO:  Okay, Doctor, looks like we have to do this the old-fashioned way.  If he's not safe to move, you will need to treat him here.

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
CTO: Well sir we have another shuttle bay.

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
XO: I am getting reports of casualties all over the ships. Ten dead and many injured.

CIV_LtCmdr_Mrlr says:
::chuckles as her paws fly over the console trying to bring up the sensors:: FCO: Your abilities...yes, Lt.  The shield strength of a shuttle up against what could have caused that? :;waves towards the ready room:: No.

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
CEO:  Understood.  Try to get primary systems online ASAP.

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
CMO/XO: Do you need anything more from me?  I need to get to work on the repairs.

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
:: sees the team standing by :: Med: Get the Captain on the gurney and get him to sickbay as soon as you can.

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
CTO: If its damages as well we have a big problem

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
FCO: go ahead

Computer says:
FCO: The shuttle bays suffered sufficient damage that one shuttlecraft is destroyed and one is heavily damaged requiring hours of repair.  No launches are capable at this time.

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
*OPS*:  Have medical dispatch medical teams to those areas.

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
XO: It doesn't look good ma'am. I'm sorry. :: shakes her head ::

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
CEO:  I think we're fine here.  Please let me know if you need anything.

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
Self: Damn I just got those shuttles

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
::looks at her teacher and friend:: CO: Hang in sir fight it and overcome the darkness.

Action: The power has stabilized enough that sensors are rebooting and coming on line.

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
CMO:  Do what you can for him, please.

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
CTO: Sir what about that tactical pod could we get a good luck from there?

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
XO: Understood. Please let me know how he is doing.  He is more than my CO.

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
CIV: good job!

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
CEO:  Aye, Lt.  Will do.  Let's get those systems up and running.  I'd like to know what caused that explosion.

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
*Sickbay*: I need medical teams dispatched to these areas I am typing in now.

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
:: walks towards the door and notices someone under the debris :: XO: We have another victim :: reaches down ::

CIV_LtCmdr_Mrlr says:
All: Finally...I'm getting sensors back up and online.

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
::walks back to her station just in time to see that power has began to flow again for the sensors::

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
CMO:  Who is it?  ::Walks toward her.::

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
CIV: what can you tell me of the damage?

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
::looks over at the CIV and heads over to her::

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
CIV: Can we get an internal sensor scan and check for life signs?

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
CIV: I have power being routed from fusion reactor 8 to your sensors.

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
:: removes a large piece of debris and looks at a young woman's bloody face :: XO: I think it's the Captain's yeoman. Williams is it?

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
All: I think the explosion happened on our stern. This is where the most casualties are.

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
::thinks about the explosion and what might have hit the old lady::

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
::Looks at the body of the young woman laying there.::  CMO:  Is she .. is she alive?

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
CIV/OPS: Is there another ship out there?

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
::provides for rerouting power to the sensors::

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
:: checks the woman's vital signs :: XO: Yes, but barely.

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
*OPS*:  Have you dispatched a message to SF about our condition yet?

CIV_LtCmdr_Mrlr says:
::reads over the sensor data and whistles:: All: Stand by for a report.  The pod is gone....we've got shrapnel creating hull breaches throughout the port side.  Junior officer crew quarters have been breached and are venting into space.

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
OPS: I gave fusion reactor 8 for the sensors.

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
CEO: I am rerouting it now ma'am.

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
CMO:  Tell me what you need.  We need to get her to sickbay.  Is she stable enough to move?

CIV_LtCmdr_Mrlr says:
All: We have a large girder that has pierced the hull through to deck 29...it has destroyed the anti-matter supply manifolds.

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
SELF: there goes a lot of work

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
:: motions to the team to take her to sickbay as well :: XO: She has to be or we'll lose her.

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
::hearing that::  *Engineering*: Emergency for fusion reactors 10 -13 for emergency force fields for port side junior officer crew quarters now.  Venting atmosphere.  Move!!!

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
XO: I'll go with the Captain and Williams.

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
CMO:  Take them to sickbay and keep me updated, please.

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
CEO: How are the emergency force fields holding? Do they need more power?

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
::looks at the stretcher::

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
XO: Of course Lieutenant.

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
::Heads out to the bridge.::  *OPS*:  Send a message to SFC that we are in need of a tow back to McKinley Station.

CIV_LtCmdr_Mrlr says:
FCO: Negative...there are no ships in the immediate area.

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
:: heads across the room to the doorway :: *CNS*: Counselor, this is Dr. Love. Please meet me in sickbay on the double.

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
::moves over to his console after hearing the XO::

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
OPS: Ens. I just have pulled online my fusion reactors 10-13 for port side emergency force fields.  I need you to help me in maintaining the SIF or we will fall apart till I can get some idea of what it was that took off the pod.

CIV_LtCmdr_Mrlr says:
::looks up as the XO enters:: XO: Ma'am…did you hear the preliminary damage report?

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
XO: I got it ma'am

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
*TO* report!

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
CIV:  Aye, we're going to need a tow back to McKinley Station.  Are communications up?

EO_Lt_Johnson says:
 *CEO*: Sir Fusion reactors 10 - 13 now rerouted for emergency fields on port side.

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
COM: McKinley: McKinley Station this is the USS Triton please come in

CIV_LtCmdr_Mrlr says:
XO: Should be....but not very clear.  Enough for Ensign Polo to send an SOS.

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
:: sees Williams begins to flail her arms and stops to restrain her ::

TO_LTjg_Cerdan says:
*CTO*: I appear to be stuck on deck 16. lifts are not responding.

CNS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
*CMO*:  Aye.  ::she makes her way to Sickbay from the Bridge while using extreme caution::

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
::hands flying all over the console. Opens a channel with SFC with one hand and tries to reroute as much power as he can with the other::

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
::Heads over to OPS.::  OPS:  How's the hand?  Let me know when you have open communication with SF.

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
*TO*  do you have your phaser?

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
:; follows the medical team to the aft hatch and scrambles through ::

Host McKinley_OPS says:
@COM:USS Triton: This is station operations

CNS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
::she reaches Sickbay::

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
XO: The hands are fine, for the moment, and the channel is open.

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
::hands are flying over her console trying to make the needed rerouting of power to necessary force fields and IDF fields and SIF fields::

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
*CNS*: Are you in sickbay yet? I need a report on the Captain as soon as possible.

TO_LTjg_Cerdan says:
*CTO*: That’s affirmative , I was afraid to cut open a hatch, Looks like there are some decompressions

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
COM: McKinley OPS:  This is the USS Triton.  We have experienced an explosion and have experienced heavy damage.  We are going to need assistance and a tow back to McKinley Station.  We have casualties.

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
*TO*: how bad?

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
XO: Ma'am permission to go below a search for survivors

CNS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
*CMO*:  Just entering now.

TO_LTjg_Cerdan says:
*CTO*: I am unable to tell from here, Are sensor online?

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
CEO: You should have the power you need Ma'am. Right now.

CIV_LtCmdr_Mrlr says:
::continues to read through the sensor data:: XO: Ma'am....although the data is still sketchy, I can tell you that we weren't attacked.  We weren't struck by weapons fire.  Other than that...we'll have to wait until we get back home to find out the rest.

Host McKinley_OPS says:
@Com: USS Triton: We are dispatching a tug now.  ETA 30 minutes, can you maintain atmosphere till then?

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
FCO:  Aye, have Commander Ray dispatch a team to assist you.

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
CIV:  Thank you, Commander.

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
:: climbs though another hatch :: *CNS*: The Captain should be there shortly. I'm trying to get there myself.

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
CIV: what can you tell me about deck 16?

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
XO: Thank you Lt.

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
CEO:  Lt, how is life support.  Can it sustain us for 30 minutes?

CIV_LtCmdr_Mrlr says:
::checks:: CTO: Emergency force fields are in place on that deck.  Why?

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
::walks over to the CTO:: CTO: Where is the most damage sir?

CNS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
*CMO*:  Understood.  ::she looks around and sees all the injured and she begins to feel a bit queasy::

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
XO: Yes sir guaranteed 30 minutes anything after that is not a promise.

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
*TO*: go ahead and use it on cutting setting

Host McKinley_OPS says:
@Com: Triton: Repeat can you sustain atmosphere till then?

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
*CNS*: Sorry about throwing all this at you so soon Commander, but we need all the help we can get.

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
CIV: the TO is stuck down there

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
::Nods to the CEO.::  COM: McKinley OPS:  Engineering can guarantee life support for 30 minutes.  Please hurry.

Host McKinley_OPS says:
@Com: Triton: Hold on help is coming…McKinley out.

CIV_LtCmdr_Mrlr says:
CTO: I'll see if I can find a safe passage for him to get out. ::checks the sensors::

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
::enters the TL and orders it to the closest place it could take him where the most damage is::

TO_LTjg_Cerdan says:
*CTO*: Stand by, I'll make an attempt.

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
XO: Permission to leave bridge for engineering. I have to see what damage we got first hand.  Got to see for myself.  That shouldn't have happened unless someone did it deliberately.

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
XO: Maybe if we cut power to all non essential areas and we evacuate we may hold a little longer Commander.

CNS_Cmdr_Ashworth says:
::she looks around and feels faint and she faints from all she sees around her::

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
COM: McKinley OPS:  Sommers out.

TO_LTjg_Cerdan says:
::Draws his phaser adjusts settings and fires a fine beam., Hoping that a force field isn't in place.::

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
CEO:  Make it so, Lt.

CMO_Cmdr_Love says:
:: crawls out onto deck five  and runs to sickbay and enters :: All: I need a report folks.

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
<add "them" after "evacuate" in my last line>

XO_Lt_Sommers says:
OPS:  Agreed.

CIV_LtCmdr_Mrlr says:
*TO*: ::checking sensors:: As soon as you cut through that hatch you'll have to take the Jeffries tube to the left of you.  The other brings you near a hull breach.

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
::exits the lift to a corridor mostly destroy and bodies all over::

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
Computer: Close bridge engineering station Voice ID Gamma Alpha 90953 Pi.

Computer says:
 CEO: Bridge engineering station offline.

TO_LTjg_Cerdan says:
*CIV*: Understood, That's a relief,

FCO_LtJG_Arca says:
Computer: Report my position to the CTO and request and team at this location

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
::turns and heads for the working TL and engineering:

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
:: signals crew to abandon all non essential stations and shows them regrouping points::

TO_LTjg_Cerdan says:
::Protects his eyes with one hand as the phaser cuts through.::

CTO_LtCmdr_Ray says:
*FCO*: Granted

CEO_Lt_Randolph says:
XO: I may need to do a visual inspection out side the ship.

OPS_Ens_Polo says:
CIV: I need an internal sensors sweep to see if anybody was left behind. 

TO_LTjg_Cerdan says:
::Stops the phaser and pushes the hatch the rest of the way open.::

Host McKinley_OPS says:
Information: It takes over an hour to return to McKinley due to the Tritons status. The Triton will be towed back to Star base.  The engineering detachment of the space tug will have a preliminary report to give to the Chief engineers of the base.  It will be found that an explosion in one of the plasma conduits set off the torpedo magazines in the pod.
