CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::sits in the XO chair:: aFCO: Prepare to bring us out of warp when we reach the system

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
<aFCO Pool> CTO: Aye sir

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::polarises the main viewer::

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::gives herself a final check in the mirror before leaving for her shift::

Action: The main viewer now looks like it is blurred.

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::looks at the viewer:: Self: Oh wonderful

Action: A hair falls out of place as the CEO looks at herself.

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::a figure appears behind her and puts his arms around her, kissing her cheek:: <Kevin> Have a good shift. I'll see you on the holodeck for dinner later?

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
<Kevin>::fixes the stray strand of hair::

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
<Ensign Wookie> ::stands beside the CTO and holds a PADD:: CTO: Latest duty rosters sir. Need your approval

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::smiles:: Kevin: Of course. Can I know where it is your taking me?

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::smiles and takes the PADD looking over it. Hands it back:: Ensign Wookie: Done and done. Anything else ensign?

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
<Ensign Wookie> ::stammers:: CTO: Uhm no sir ::hurries off::

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
<Kevin>::grins:: CEO: Holodeck two.. and I'm not telling you anymore than that

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::looks at the blurry main viewer:: All: is someone gonna fix that?

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::glances at her chronometer and gasps a little:: Kevin: Oops! Gotta go! I'm late! ::kisses him quickly:: Bye! ::hurries out the door to the turbolift:: TL: Bridge

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::watches the blank faces around the bridge:: Self: typical

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
*CEO*: Chief get your butt up here the dammn view screen id stuffed

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
*CTO*: I'm on my way... ::silently urges the TL to hurry up::

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
*CEO*: thank you ::closes the COM::

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
Self: what next? Space snails?

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::hurries through the TL doors once it stops and rushes onto the bridge a little flushed:: CTO: Sorry! Sorry! ::feels awful as she has never been late before now::

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
:;smiles:: CEO: Bad moment

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::blinks at looks at the CTO:: CTO: What?

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:
::Sitting in her ready room going over the last of the reports.::

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CEO: You look a bit flustered

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::motions to the stray hair::

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::feels her color rise even more. She tries to hide a smile:: CTO: Oh no...::smoothes her hair a little::.. just um... slept in... ::coughs and heads to the view screen console::

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
:;smiles:: CEO: think you can get the movie channel on that thing?

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:
::Tosses one padd over her shouldn't laughing.:: Self:  What does Command think I care about missing tea cups from Admiral Sheridan's office.

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::smiles. Amazingly easy since she's normally cranky:: CTO: Sure, that and Pay Per View...

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CEO: Excellent. About time i found an engineer with talent

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
CTO: You just didn't look hard enough, Commander

Action: As the screen clears up the Triton drops out of warp just outside the star systemn the missing runabout is suppose to be.

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
CTO: There! That ought to do it! ::brushes her hands together and nods. Heads to her seat::

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
<aFCO> CTO: Dropping out of warp now commander

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::nods at the FCO:: TO: Run a full sensor sweep and look for the shuttle ion trail

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
<TO> CTO: Aye sir

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
*CO*: Captain weve arrived at the co-ordinates and have begun sensor sweeps

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
<TO> CTO: Nothing commander, the trail has dissipated

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::nods at the TO::

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:
*CTO*:  Thank you commander.  I'll be right out.  I take it we do not have a visual?  ::Shoves the rest of the padds aside and gets up heading to the bridge.::

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::smiles:: *CO*: No Ma`am but the Chief got us HBO

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
CTO: Sir, I'm picking up a faint Starfleet beacon

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CEO: See if you can get a lock on it

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::nods:: CTO: Already trying sir...

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
CTO: It's coming from the third planet

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:
::Steps out onto the bridge::  CEO:  It's about time.  I'm getting tired of CSI: Vulcan Science Academy.  It's a very dry show.

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:
::Goes and takes her seat.::

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CEO: excellent work chief. Keep this up and we may have to promote you

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::smirks:: CTO: Again? Why Commander, I'm flattered

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CO: Skipper we have a faint signal from a SF beacon

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:
CTO:  Take us to the coordinates

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CO: Aye skipper ::nods to the aFCO::

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
<aFCO> :: adjusts the Tritons heading towards the coordinates::

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:
CTO:  Is it just a location beacon?

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
<aFCO> CTO: course and speed adjusted commander

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CEO: Chief?

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
CTO: Commander?

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CEO: Is it a distress beacon or a location beacon

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::caught herself daydreaming and checks her sensors:: CTO: Oh! I can't tell... it's too weak

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::nods :: CEO: understood

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CO: Unknown at this time

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:
CTO:  Scout for other ships in the area.

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CO: aye skipper

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::begins scanning for other ships in the area::

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
CTO/CO: There are a lot of satellites orbiting the planet... 214 to be exact. They're old... but they still have power...
CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::looks up from the sensor scan:: CO: No ships in sensor range. Just all those satellites. I wonder if the shuttle went down there

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:
CEO:  Can you get any readings off them?

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::checks:: CO: The beacon... it's coming from one of those planets.

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:
CEO:  Can you scan for the shuttle?

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::nods:: CO: I have scans started already on that, Sir. I'm not getting anything else from the satellites. They're shielded

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:
CEO:  What century would you estimate them to be at?

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
:: looks at the sensor readout::

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
CTO: About 21st century... late

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CO: Lot of radiation in the atmosphere

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CO: It would appear that some of the satellites are moving

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:
CTO:  Evidence of a nuclear war?

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
CTO/CO: Agreed. It could have hampered sensors and systems

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
:: raises an eyebrow:: Self: curious

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:
::thinks a moment::  CTO:  Check the database.  Maybe we had settlers come out here...

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CO: Aye skipper. However those satellites i mentioned have taken a high orbit between us and the planet

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::runs the details through LCARS::

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
All: Interesting... it's like they're forming a defense.

Action: The 24 satellites fire a very high energy beam in unison taking out the shields.

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::swears:: CO: Shields down skipper

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:
aFCO:  Pull back

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
<aFCO> CO: Aye ma`am ::backs the Triton off::

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CEO: route auxiliary power to shields

Action: As the Triton backs off the 24 satellites go back to the normal orbits.

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
CTO: Aye, Sir.

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::routes power to shields::

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:
CTO:  Send out a prob.  It's small and let's see what the satellites do with that.

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CO: Aye skipper :: readies a recon probe::

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CO: LCARS doesn’t show any hits on settlers

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:
CTO:  Acknowledged.

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
CTO/CO: That Shield generator is destroyed

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CEO: Great no shields.

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CO: Class 5 Intel probe ready for launch captain

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:
CTO:  Launch when ready

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::launches the probe:: CO: Probe away

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::taps her badge:: *EO Murray*: Murray! Get a team and get to work on that Shield generator!

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
<Murray>*CEO*: Aye Sir.

Action: The probe is launched and heads to the planet.

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CO: Data link established skipper

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
<Murray>::calls together his team and heads out for assessment and repair::

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::puts the data up on the main viewer::

Action; The probe flies by the satellites and enters the atmosphere, It detects high level of radiation in the upper atmosphere. It see what is left of large cities and ruined county side.  Then the signal is lost as it clears the cloud cover toward the ground.

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::looks up at the image:: CO: Dammn looks like post apocalypse

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::frowns:: All: Kinda like what the Crystalline Entity would do...

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CO: If those radiation levels are correct i doubt if the shuttle crashed there they would survive long out side the shuttle

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::turns in his chair:: CEO: Chief I want you to formulate a plan to disable those satellites. And as a secondary mission i want to capture one only if we can neutralize the threat it poses to the ship

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:
CTO:  Prepare an away team.  Radiation protocols.  Let's see what is going on.

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::nods to the Captain:: TO: Have team 2 stand to. Radiation suites

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
CTO: Aye Sir.

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
<TO> CTO: Aye sir

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CO: Captain suggest we try and put a hole in the defense net. If our wayward shuttle is down there then those satellites must have had something to do with it

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
CTO: You are taking a shuttle, right?

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
CEO: Ayep

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::smiles with relief and nods in acknowledgement::

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::smiles:: CEO: aww you care chief

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::blinks and feels her colour rise again:: CTO: Don't flatter yourself, Commander. I'm merely concerned for my fellow crew.

Host CO_Capt_Adamson says:
CTO:  When you leave...we will fire on the net I suggest you scoot around the other side of the planet.

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::stands and pulls down on his jacket:: CO: Aye skipper. Well i guess i`ll take my leave now.

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::heads for the TL::

CEO_LtJg_Hogan says:
::turns to her console and starts in scanning the satellites::

CTO_Cmdr_McQueen says:
::stands patiently in the TL::
