CSO_Lorenzo:
@::follows the Captain, keeping her tricorder functioning::

CTO_Kelson:
@::dives and follows Captain::

CO_Alar:
@Lorenzo: What do you make of the materials at the bottom? Can we use them?

FCODoole:
::pulls out tricorder, scanning area::

CEO_Nemo:
$ ::glug, glug::

CSO_Lorenzo:
@CO: Yes Captain. We should be able to fix any fractures in the compound.

MO-LtJGRoyce:
@Doole:  can you detect where the fracture is located?

$MO:Would you like me to scout ahead?

CO_Alar:
@Lorenzo: Gather some of the materials, then. I believe I've located the fracture.

CSO_Lorenzo:
@CO: Aye, Ma'am.

CEO_Nemo:
$ ::sees bubbles escaping and motions the others to follow::

CTO_Kelson:
@::follows Captain to fracture::

MO-LtJGRoyce:
$ MacFarlane:  you and Doole go just ahead of us, but keep in visual sight

CO_Alar:
@Kelson: Go with Lorenzo and see if you can make heads or tails of the tools down there. I'm going to go check out the fracture.

CSO_Lorenzo:
@::heads further down and pockets her attached tricorder.... she then starts to gather the materials they would need to fix a corridor::

CTO_Kelson:
@Captain: Aye, aye.

FCODoole:
$MacFarlane: Let's go.

CSO_Lorenzo:
@::angles up and heads towards the Captain::

CO_Alar:
@Lorenzo: Julia, what have you found?

CSO_Lorenzo:
@CTO: I'll take what I can carry now, so we can begin the repairs.

MO-LtJGRoyce:
$ :: catches up with Doole and MacFarlane, looks at Nemo ::

CO_Alar:
@:;still scanning the fracture::

CTO_Kelson:
@::picks up material to examine::

MO-LtJGRoyce:
$ Doole:  what are your readings?

Training_Tech:
%  ::muttering to self::  Ladies and gentlemen, we're experiencing some turbulence....    ::turning a dial::

CTO_Kelson:
@::nods to CSO:: Okay, Julia.

FCODoole:
$MacFarlane: Please scan that fracture to find out how bad it is, while I get this underwater sealant torch ready, please.

CEO_Nemo:
$ Royce: I brought some of my engineering tools with me. Here, use this to seal the fracture while I prepare the patch>

CSO_Lorenzo:
@CO: I have a bi-polar torch and some metal parts if we need to wedge any cracks in the corridors.

Training_Tech:
ACTION: THE WATER TURBULENCE INCREASES AND LARGE WAVES BUFFET THE CREW ABOUT AS THEY STRUGGLE TO COMPLETE THEIR TASKS.

CTO_Kelson:
@::pushed against the floor by force of waves::

MO-LtJGRoyce:
$ Team 2:  let's make this quick...waters are getting rough down here!

CSO_Lorenzo:
@::uses her legs to keep from being pulled away by the strong currents::

CIV_MacFarlane:
$FCO:We're supposed to be suing the tools we find down on the floor, I'll scan if you go down and collect them, I already have the sealant compound

FCODoole:
$Nemo: I need you with that second torch if we're gonna be able to seal this

CEO_Nemo:
$::struggles against the current::

MO-LtJGRoyce:
$ :: takes the instrument Nemo has given her ::

CO_Alar:

MO-LtJGRoyce:
$ :: continues to watch Team 2, especially Nemo ::

CSO_Lorenzo:
@::takes some of the metal pieces she collected and begins to plug the obvious gashes and larger holes in the corridor walls, then pulls out the bi-polar torch and begins to weld the metal together::

CTO_Kelson:
@::picks up torch and lights for assistance::

CTO_Kelson:
@::still light headed:: Captain: Still a little groggy...

CO_Alar:
@Lorenzo: He's been transported out, to Benning's sickbay, I'd suspect.

FCODoole:
$MO: Sam ok?

CO_Alar:
@Lorenzo: I'm on my way back.

MO-LtJGRoyce:
$ CO:  is Kelson, alright?

CSO_Lorenzo:
@CO: Aye, Ma'am.  I've managed to patch most of the damage.

CIV_MacFarlane:
$::steadies himself against the tube and continues applying compound while Doole torches the crack::

CTO_Kelson:
::materializes in Benning sickbay and collapses::

CO_Alar:
@*Royce* He's been transported out, but he was recovering by the time he was removed.

FCODoole:
$::continuing repairs::Nemo: Sam ok?

MO-LtJGRoyce:

MO-LtJGRoyce:
$ MacFarlane:  what's your status?

CIV_MacFarlane:
$MO:Doing good, another 2 minutes

FCODoole:
$::welds more compound into place::

MO-LtJGRoyce:
$ :: arrives back to Team 2 ::

CEO_Nemo:
$FCO: I guess so. He was transported back.

CSO_Lorenzo:
@::pulls out tricorder making sure their repairs will hold::

FCODoole:
$MO: What happened?

CO_Alar:
@Lorenzo: It looks good.

CSO_Lorenzo:
@CO: It looks stable Captain.  It should hold.

CSO_Lorenzo:
@::nods agreement::

MO-LtJGRoyce:
$ Doole:  don't know...what matters right now is that he is safe, and we need to get this repair done

CSO_Lorenzo:
@CO: Shall we head for the hatch and try to restore the environmental systems?

CIV_MacFarlane:
$MO:another minute, less than a half meter to go:

CO_Alar:
@::runs her hand over the repair:: Lorenzo: Good job, Lieutenant.

FCODoole:
$::more compound::

CO_Alar:
@::nods:: Lorenzo: Let's do it.

MO-LtJGRoyce:
$ Doole:  how is that patch job coming, are we almost ready to test the artificial environment?

CSO_Lorenzo:
@::nods and pockets the torch taking it with her::

FCODoole:
$MO: Done. ::turns off torch:: ::scanning seal::

CO_Alar:
@::closes up her tricorder and stores it, then follows Lorenzo::

CIV_MacFarlane:
$::swims for the hatch and opens it::

CEO_Nemo:
$MO: I think it'll hold. Go ahead and enter and I'll stay behind to ensure that it holds.

MO-LtJGRoyce:
$ Team 2:  lets look around for a hatch to get inside and test this baby

CIV_MacFarlane:
$MO:Already Found it, over this way ::waves::

FCODoole:
$MO: I'll hang back with Nemo.

MO-LtJGRoyce:
$ Team 2:  lets get a move on, guys

CSO_Lorenzo:
@::makes sure her legs are even and braced in case there are any more strong currents of water as she swims to the hatch::

MO-LtJGRoyce:
$ Doole:  I think we should all stay together

CEO_Nemo:
$MO: I'm fine. I think you should lead the team inside.

CTO_Kelson:
::wakes up on bio bed with beautiful nurse hovering over him::

CO_Alar:
@::follows into the hatch:: Lorenzo: I'm assuming we'll need to hold on to something as we evacuate the water::

CSO_Lorenzo:
@::reaches the hatch and pulls out her tricorder, checking the pressure on the other side of the hatch before opening::

MO-LtJGRoyce:
$ Team 2:  we all go together folks, lets move

CIV_MacFarlane:
$::shakes his head and goes inside the tube looking for the environment controls::

FCODoole:
$MO: ok. ::follows Royce::

MO-LtJGRoyce:
$ :: heads towards where MacFarlane is at ::  MacFarlane:  nice job finding the hatch

CEO_Nemo:
$MO: Very well...

CSO_Lorenzo:
@::nods to the Captain:: CO: The pressure will pull everything in Ma'am, we'll need to get a good hold of the handle.

MO-LtJGRoyce:
$ :: looks back to Doole and Nemo ::

CTO_Kelson:
Nurse:  Hello, Lieutenant...my name is Max.

CTO_Kelson:
::Kelson is shocked back to reality::

FCODoole:
$MO: Yes?

MO-LtJGRoyce:
