U.S.S. Vesuvius – August 8, 2000

Kris:
The Vesuvius arrived at Aquaria to find the manned Satellite in orbit destroyed by some energy discharge, could possibly be weapons fire, but unfortunately the energy tags don't suggest weapons fire.

Kris:
With the Satellite destroyed the Vesuvius took its same position and was able to link with the Underwater Station along and Emergency link that was still functioning.

Kris:
The NPC XO, CTO, CEO, FCO, and CMO went down to the planet to investigate.  Their Tricorders didn't function very well, maybe 10-15 meters before the readings became unreadable.

Kris:
No lifesigns were detected and the Station was running on Secondary power, leaving all the corridors dim and quiet.  

Kris:
The Main Hydrogenerator was offline for some reason, the CTO and CEO went to investigate while the XO, FCO, and CMO headed for C&C.

Kris:

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ Doole: Sure.. why not, its not like a big slobbering water beast is going to jump out at us.

CTO_Kelson:

FCO-Lt_Doole:
@XO: I wouldn't guarantee that. ::slowly opens door::

CO_Alar:
::notices the tension between Jalara and MacFarlane, and decides to have a little chat with him.

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ Royce: Try passive scans.. heat might be a better indicator

OPS_Chapponte:
::sitting in his nice comfortable chair, with a lock on the away team.... just in case::

CTO_Kelson (Sound - CommBadge.wav):
::hits commbadge::

CMO-LtRoyce:
@ :: switches tricorder to passive scans for heat ::

CO_Alar:
::leaves the bridge under Lorenzo's command, and heads for the science lab where MacFarlane is hiding out.::

CIV_MacFarlane:

CSO_Lorenzo:
::hopes the away team reports back soon::

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ ::Peers around Doole's large frame::  Doole: See anything?

CNS_Jalara:
::Begins to slowly pace around the bridge::

CEO_Smith:
@::walks into the power room::

CTO_Kelson:
@*Civ*: Anything on the debris yet, Colonel?

OPS_Chapponte:
::wonders what it looks like down there::

FCO-Lt_Doole:
@XO: No, but I haven't actually entered the room yet.

CIV_MacFarlane:
*CTO*:I've pretty much ruled out weapons fire, I'm continuing my analysis

FCO-Lt_Doole:
::enters room::

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ ::Follows Doole and looks around.. hand on the phaser at his hip::

CTO_Kelson:
@*Civ*Thank you...keep me informed.  Out.

CIV_MacFarlane:
::continues his scans but begins getting a nervous feeling in the pit of his stomach::

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ All: See no slobbering beast.. just darkness.

CMO-LtRoyce:
@ :: walks around scanning for life signs ::

FCO-Lt_Doole:
@XO: Nothing yet  on the EMP spectrum of my V.I.S.O.R.

CSO_Lorenzo:
::takes a look at the bridge crew:: OPS: How is that transporter lock of the away team holding up?

CO_Alar:
::arrives at the door of MacFarlane's lab and enters::

CNS_Jalara:
*Sickbay*:  How is our patient doing?

CIV_MacFarlane:
::realizes why he felt nervous::CO:Can I help you ma'am?

CEO_Smith:
@CTO:I'm going to see what is wrong with the hydrogenerator.

CMO-LtRoyce:
*CNS*: <Aola>  still unconscious

CIV_MacFarlane:
::looks stoic and slightly annoyed, as usual::

OPS_Chapponte:
CSO:  Great.  I've had one on ever since they landed.

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ Doole: Keep your eyes... scanners... whatever open, Big Guy.

CNS_Jalara:
*Aola*:  Thank you, Dr.

CTO_Kelson:
@::turns to CEO:CEO: just let me know if you need a hand.

CSO_Lorenzo:
Ops: Let me know if that changes.

CEO_Smith:
@CTO: ok

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ ::Glances out the large glass window into the dark water::

CEO_Smith:
@::walks to hydrogenerator::

CNS_Jalara:
::Decides to go down and check on the El Aurian::  CSO:  I think I'm going to go check on our patient down in sickbay.

OPS_Chapponte:
CSO: Will do.

CTO_Kelson:
@::continues walking perimeter of room::

CO_Alar:
::leans against the wall, very casually:: MacFarlane: I'd like an explanation, actually.

CMO-LtRoyce:
@ XO:  am reading life signs out there, sir...

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ ::Moves to a console and tries to get a response and as he steps down to a lower level steps into about 15 centimeters of water::

CSO_Lorenzo:
CNS: Let me know her progress.

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ All: We got water... and water means leak... and leak in ocean means big trouble.

CNS_Jalara:
::Nods and walks off the bridge::

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ *Alar* Tyfair to Alar.

FCO-Lt_Doole:
::picks up on the lifesigns that CMO has detected::

CIV_MacFarlane:
CO:Is this about Ensign Jalara?  You know as well as I do that I'm under no obligation to speak with a Counselor..

FCO-Lt_Doole:
<@>

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ Royce: In the water?

CO_Alar:
MacFarlane: Be that as it may, you are under an obligation to be civil to my crew.

FCO-Lt_Doole:
::looks at CMO::

CNS_Jalara:
::Enters sickbay and goes over to the patient::

CNS_Jalara:
Aola:  Any change?

CMO-LtRoyce:
@ XO:  the sea creatures indigenous to this world, sir.  I don't know if they are hungry or not

FCO-Lt_Doole:
@XO: shall I check on the CEO and CTO?

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ Royce: Well, we are in here.. they are out there...

CEO_Smith:
::makes a visual diagnostics evaluation::

CIV_MacFarlane:
CO:I wasn't aware that it was necessary for me to offer opinions on matters that I have little data on or that I wasn’t allowed to question a crew member that was staring at me...

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ Doole: Do that... I'm gonna try to boost our link to the ship, it seems they aren't responding.

CSO_Lorenzo:
::tries to have sensors scan the compound::

CMO-LtRoyce:
@ XO:  but there is water in here, sir, hence there is a leak somewhere.  That means somewhere it is unstable.

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ ::Moves to console and hopes there is a little power left in the grid to boost the emergency link::

Kris:
ACTION: A LARGE TOOTHY FISH SLOWLY GLIDES BY THE COMPLEX'S CORRIDOR, VISIBLE TO THE AWAY TEAM MEMBERS.

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ *Alar* Tyfair to Alar, Come in Vesuvius

CTO_Kelson:
::turns to see the creature::

CMO-LtRoyce:
@ :: looks at the large creature, and thinks, amazing ::

CTO_Kelson:
<@>

CEO_Smith:
@ALL: Where did that fish come from?

FCO-Lt_Doole (Sound - CommBadge.wav):
@*Kelson* :Lt. Doole to Lt. Kelson

CTO_Kelson:
@Self: that's not good...

OPS_Chapponte:
::notes that the away team is trying to communicate::

CO_Alar:
::still keeping her expression neutral:: MacFarlane: Look, I don't know how you're used to operating, but you either get your act together and start showing my crew more respect, or you will be gone. And don't think I can't see to that.....

CTO_Kelson:
@*FCO* Kelson here.

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ ::Jumps as he sees Teeth in his peripheral Vision::  Self: Its out there.. you are in here.  Chill.

FCO-Lt_Doole:
@*Kelson*: Have you found the hydrogrenerator yet?

CSO_Lorenzo:
*XO* How does it look down their Commander?

OPS_Chapponte:
::hopes someone will answer it in the absence of the captain::

CTO_Kelson:
@*FCO* Affirmative, Monty...Davis is working on it as we speak.

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ *All AT*  Tyfair to all away teams members.. it seems our link with the ship has been severed, they aren't responding.  Engineering team, get us power to reestablish the comm-system.

FCO-Lt_Doole:
<hydrogenerator>

CSO_Lorenzo:
*XO* We are reading you Commander, what's your position?

CIV_MacFarlane:
CO:I never meant any disrespect... ::sounding a little more annoyed that usual::

FCO-Lt_Doole:
@*Kelson* : Estimated time of repair? I feel it safer if we're all back together ASAP

CO_Alar:
MacFarlane: Whether you meant it or not, that's how it's coming across. I've tried to play buffer between you and my crew, but my patience is not limitless. If I hear of one more confrontation, you are going on report.

CNS_Jalara:
::Continues to watch over the El Aurian::

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ ::Ears perk up at the Comm signal::  *Lorenzo* Thought we lost you... Myself, FCO and CMO are here in C&C trying to do what we can to find out what happened, no sign of any one yet.  The rest of the Away team is trying to repair the hydrogenerator.

CMO-LtRoyce:
@ XO:  nothing...no life signs inside, only out there....  :: looks again to the deep ::

CMO-LtRoyce:
@ :: moves to a console trying to activate medical records ::

CTO_Kelson:
@*FCO*No time table yet.  We'll let the XO know when we're closer to something positive.

CSO_Lorenzo:
*XO* Can you establish that the hydrogenerator is repairable?  Or should I prepare the ship for a possible evacuation?

CMO-LtRoyce:
*CNS* <Aola>:  Counselor, our patient is waking...

FCO-Lt_Doole:
@*Kelson*: Acknowledged. M.J. out

CNS_Jalara:
Aola: Thank you, Doctor.   ::Moves away from the bed a little to give the patient some room to breathe::

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ *Lorenzo* Should be.. they are still looking it over.  I don't know who we'd evacuate.  We seem to be alone here.  The Station is taking on water the longer the generator remains offline.  The Bilge pumps I'm assuming ran out of power a long time ago.

CIV_MacFarlane:
CO:Yes,  Sir.  ::manages to sound even MORE annoyed::

CMO-LtRoyce:
:: Aola begins running scans on the patient in sickbay ::

CO_Alar:
::arches an eyebrow:: MacFarlane: Something you want to say, Colonel?

OPS_Chapponte:
::keeps the lock steady so they won't lose the away team::

FCO-Lt_Doole:
@XO: No Estimated time of repair yet on the generator. Sam will let us know when he has something more definite

CMO-LtRoyce:
CNS <Aola> :  she is disoriented

CTO_Kelson:
@::walks over to where CEO is working::

CNS_Jalara:
::Nods at Aola::  El Aurian:  My name is Counselor Jalara.  You are on board the Federation Starship Vesuvius.

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ Doole:  Who's Sam?  I'm still learning your names remember

CSO_Lorenzo:
::frowns::  *XO* There should be approximately 6,000 inhabitants.  Let me know if anything changes.

CIV_MacFarlane:
::has more than a few things he wants to say but would prefer not to have to talk with the admiral later::CO:Nothing Sir.

FCO-Lt_Doole:
@XO: CTO Lt. Kelson

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ *Lorenzo* I'm aware, but the habitat bubbles are all flooded, and we haven't seen anyone, dead or alive.

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ Doole: Thanks.. I'll get your names down eventually

CEO_Smith:
@CTO: I still can't get a clear signal of its malfunction. ::man we need better tricorders::

CO_Alar:
::knows full well that there's something else on his mind, but as he's decided not to say anything further, she lets it slide:: MacFarlane: I hope we understand each other, then. ::she turns and heads out the door:: As you were, Colonel.

CO_Alar:
::she heads back up to the bridge::

CTO_Kelson:
@::holds tricorder next to machine::

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ ::Realizes the computer isn't doing anything and he's pushing things needlessly::

CNS_Jalara:
*Bridge*:  The patient is awake.

CSO_Lorenzo:
*CO* The away team has reported back to us Ma'am.

CIV_MacFarlane:
::tries to hate that woman but he just can't::

CEO_Smith:
@CTO: Are you getting any thing?

Jazel:
::sitting up and feeling dizzy::

Jazel:
Ooooo

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ CMO&FCO: Okay... C&C is fried.  Another Mystery.  Let's keep going... shall we try the communal area?

CTO_Kelson:
@CEO: Computer is down...we need to bring that up first.

CNS_Jalara:
Jazel: Relax......Do you remember what happened to you?

CMO-LtRoyce:
:: Aola continues to scan the patient ::  please don't rush to sit up...

CIV_MacFarlane:
::continues his scans of the fragment::

CO_Alar:
Lorenzo: What is their status?

CMO-LtRoyce:
@XO:  led the way, sir

CEO_Smith:
@CTO: I agree, no telling how long its been offline.

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ CMO&FCO: But first... ::Goes to a storage locker and removes palm beacons and tosses them to the other two officers::  Its too dark...

CSO_Lorenzo:
CO: They are attempting to repair the hydrogenerator.  They have not found anyone yet, dead or alive.

CTO_Kelson:
@::reinitializes console for hydrogenerator computer.

CMO-LtRoyce:
@:: catches palm beacon and activates it ::

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ ::Clicks on the beacon and exits C&C checking the Station map and heads for the Communal Area on Level 2::

Jazel:
Uh.....no...what happened?

FCO-Lt_Doole:
@XO: Thanks. ::catches palm beacon, turning it on::

CO_Alar:
Lorenzo: Any sign of predators?

FCO-Lt_Doole:
@::follows XO and CMO::

CTO_Kelson:
@::waiting for response::

CMO-LtRoyce:
@ :: follows the XO ::

CEO_Smith:
@::notices nothing happens::

CSO_Lorenzo:
CO: Not yet Ma'am.  Not inside the compound anyway.

Jazel:
OH!  Where are we?  Did you find them?  I was sent to get help.  Where are we?

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ *Lorenzo* Almost forgot.. No slobbering water-beasts.. yet.  Tyfair out.

CTO_Kelson:
@CEO: This machine is dead.  Any ideas?

CSO_Lorenzo:
CO: The compound is taking on water though.

CEO_Smith:
@CTO: I don't think that was the response we wanted.

CMO-LtRoyce:
Aola:  you are on the Federation starship Vesuvius.  Who are we supposed to find?

CTO_Kelson:
@::shakes head in agreement::

CSO_Lorenzo:
CO: No predators Ma'am.

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ ::Is kind of glad that the station has a ramp like corridor system, no climbing through Jeffries tubes to get to lower levels::

CEO_Smith:
@::goes to panel under the console:: CTO: Let's see if I can find out why.

CNS_Jalara has entered the conversation

CEO_Smith:
@::opens panel::

CO_Alar:
Lorenzo: Anything else I need to know?

CMO-LtRoyce:
Jazel:  do you know where you are?  Can you tell me what I just said?

Jazel:
The Aquarian colonists sent me to find help.

CMO-LtRoyce:
Jazel <Aola> :  how long ago did they send you ?

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ Self:  I hate darkness.... ::Shines beacon down corridor as he rounds the spiral nearing the communal area::

CSO_Lorenzo:
CO: The counselor went to check on our patient.  She will report when she learns anything.

CTO_Kelson:
@XO: Sir, this hydrogenerator is dead and I’m CTO, not a conjurer...shall we keep working on it?

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@  ::Finally comes to the Communal area's double doors::

CTO_Kelson:
<*XO*>

CMO-LtRoyce:
@ :: continues to follow the XO, unable to read any lifesigns ::

CNS_Jalara:
::Shakes her head a bit:: Jazel:  I'm sorry, I seemed to have drifted off a little.......

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ CMO&FCO: Any bets on how many slobbering water-beasts are on the other side?

CO_Alar:
Lorenzo: Looks like all we have to do is sit and wait.

CSO_Lorenzo:
CO: Yes Ma'am.

CMO-LtRoyce:
@ XO:  from my reading, there are several...

CSO_Lorenzo:
::keeps her eyes on the sensors, recalibrating for optimal range::

FCO-Lt_Doole:
@XO: Don't open the door

CTO_Kelson:
@::observing CEO's progress while waiting for XO's response::

CEO_Smith:
@CTO: This doesn't look good.

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ Doole: And why not?

CTO_Kelson:
@CEO: I'd have to agree...but I’m no engineer, so I’ll take your word for it.

CEO_Smith:
@CTO: There is no repairing the hydrogenerator.

FCO-Lt_Doole:
@XO: You might not wanna know what's there

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ Doole: And I'm waiting for you to tell me...

CTO_Kelson:
@*XO* Any new orders, sir?  We are spinning our warp engines here...

FCO-Lt_Doole:
@XO: I said,  You might not wanna know what's there

CMO-LtRoyce:
@XO:  reading are unclear, sir...I can't tell you if there are life signs or not

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ Doole: If its the colonists, I'm gonna open the door.

CMO-LtRoyce:
@ XO:  takes a defensive stance

CIV_MacFarlane:
::completes his final scans on the fragment and gets nothing out if it::Self:Piece of junk... ::snatches it off the table and heads back to the cargo bay::

CEO_Smith:
@*XO*: Sir, I'm afraid there is no way to repair the hydrogenerator.

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ CMO&FCO: Caution be damned, we are hear to save 6000 colonists... not stand here arguing about the slobbering water-beasts on the other side of the door.

FCO-Lt_Doole:
@XO: Can the CMO and I check first, before you just go in.

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ ::He smiles and Opens door and small flood rushes past the three away team members and down the sloping corridor.::

CMO-LtRoyce:
@ :: looks at the XO and the FCO wondering who's arguing?::

Jazel:
ACTION: The stench of too many bodies in too small a space wafts out of the open door as well as the raucous cacophony of several thousand colonists.

CMO-LtRoyce:
@XO:  looks like we found some people...

FCO-Lt_Doole:
@::looks at the XOand CMO, wondering who's arguing::

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@  ::Tenses at the smell, but continues into the room::

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ CMO: Check for serious injuries and the like.

CTO_Kelson:
@::starts to pace waiting for new orders::

CMO-LtRoyce:
@ :: already moving through the crowd checking for any injuries ::

CEO_Smith:
@*XO*: What would you like us to do next?

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ ::Yelling, as loudly as possible::  Colonists:  CAN I GET EVERYONE TO QUIET DOWN!?!?!

CO_Alar:
::idly wonders how her cat is doing.....::

CMO-LtRoyce:
@ :: gets dexalin out of the med kit and begins to administer amongst the people ::

CIV_MacFarlane:
::has a brief wave of annoyance and anger and grips the fragment enough to cut his hand open::

FCO-Lt_Doole:
@:: goes to one of the colonist lying on the floor:: CMO: This one's alive,  but lifesigns are not good.

CSO_Lorenzo:
::checks the chronometer to assess how long the away team has been away::

CNS_Jalara:
::Watches Jazel intently::

CMO-LtRoyce:
@XO:  these people are suffering from oxygen deprivation due to life support failure.  I am beginning treatment

Jazel:
Ooooooo

Jazel:
::sitting up again::

CEO_Smith:
@*XO*: Are you there?

CMO-LtRoyce:
@ :: walks amongst the people trying to calm them ::

Jazel:
Did you find them in time?  They were to hide until I could get help.  ::worried::

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@  ::Grimaces at the large crowd::

CNS_Jalara:
Jazel:  Find who?

CTO_Kelson:
@*OPS* I'm having problems getting through to the other half of the away team.  Is there any interference?

CIV_MacFarlane:
::enters the cargobay and slams the fragment down on the ground and leaves feeling more annoyed than ever::

CSO_Lorenzo:
*CNS* Any word on our patient?

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ ::Thinks about firing a phaser to get their attention, but decides against it::

OPS_Chapponte:

Jazel:
Four others were sent out, but I went alone.  I hope they made it alright.

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ ::Slaps his comm-badge and yells into it, hoping someone will here:: *Alar* Tyfair to Alar.

FCO-Lt_Doole (Sound - CommBadge.wav):
@*Kelson*: How's it going with the generator

CMO-LtRoyce:
@ begins to organize the people...children first...women, men... ::

CNS_Jalara:
*CSO*:  She just woke up again.  She seems terrified for some people who need some sort of help.

CSO_Lorenzo:
*XO* We read you commander.

CNS_Jalara:
Jazel:  Do you remember what happened before you left in the shuttle?

CIV_MacFarlane:
::returns to his quarters to see just how badly he cut himself::

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ *Lorenzo* Hi, is the Captain there, please?

CSO_Lorenzo:
CO: Our patient is awake.

CMO-LtRoyce:
@ :: looks at FCO ::  FCO:  do you have any field rations?

CSO_Lorenzo:
*XO* Yes commander.

Jazel:
Jalara:  There was an attack.  ::shuddering::  They were some sort of race of water-people.  They looked like fish, but humanoids.  ::shuddering again::

CSO_Lorenzo:
CO: Its Tyfair Ma'am.

CTO_Kelson:
@*FCO* Tell the XO that we are wasting our time here and we are requesting new orders.

Jazel:
Jalara:  It was awful.

CO_Alar:
*Tyfair* I'm here, Commander. What's going on?

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ *Lorenzo* Can I speak with her please?  ::Rolling eyes::

CSO_Lorenzo:
*XO* Go ahead and try Commander.

CNS_Jalara:
::Sits down on the edge of the bed::  Jazel:  Everything is alright now.  You are safe her on the Vesuvius.

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ *Alar* Captain.. We've found roughly 4000 colonists in the communal area.  Dehydrated, and starving.  We are going to need supplies down here as quickly as we can replicate them.

FCO-Lt_Doole:
@::handing her a pouch:: CMO: Here.

CMO-LtRoyce:
@ :: takes her field rations and distributes them to the children ::

CSO_Lorenzo:
*CNS* What else is she saying?

CMO-LtRoyce:
@ FCO:  thank you, Monty

FCO-Lt_Doole (Sound - CommBadge.wav):
@*Kelson* Acknowledged.

CNS_Jalara:
*CSO*:  There was some sort of attack by a water-based species.

CMO-LtRoyce:
@ :: takes field rations from FCO and continues her work ::

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ *Alar* Also, as much medical staff as can we can down here.  A lot of children are in need of serious attention.

CIV_MacFarlane:
::enters his quarters and sits at his desk, he removes a small med kit from a drawer and begins examining his hand::

CSO_Lorenzo:
CO: Ma'am, I think you should alert the away team to be on the defensive.  The compound was attacked by an unknown species.

CMO-LtRoyce:
@ XO:  Team one is ready to go, sir

CO_Alar:
*Tyfair* I'll get right on it.

FCO-Lt_Doole:
@XO: Kelson says to tell you that he and the CEO are wasting their time with the generator. Requesting new orders

OPS_Chapponte:
*CTO*:  Yes, there is interference.  It's increasing.

CTO_Kelson:
@*OPS* Thank you, ensign.

CNS_Jalara:
Jazel:  Did you attempt to communicate with the attackers??

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ *Alar*  I'll have Kelson meet them at the beam in point.  Tyfair out.

CO_Alar:
*Tyfair* What have you discovered about the station?

Jazel:
::shudder::  Of course we did.  They didn't respond.  They just kept coming and coming.

CMO-LtRoyce:
@ :: continues with her ministrations ::

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ *Alar* Computer and power systems seem fried.  The station is taking on water.

CTO_Kelson:
@::turns to Davis: CEO: Staying here is pointless.  And communications are breaking down.  Let's go find the others.

CO_Alar:
:;sighs as she's cut off:: *Sickbay* Emergency medical teams to transporter room 1.

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ *Kelson* Report back to the beam in site, we are going to be getting some relief down here shortly.

CMO-LtRoyce:
@ XO:  can we beam these people out of here,sir?

CNS_Jalara:
Jazel:  And you were sent to bring help back, right?

CEO_Smith:
@CTO: That’s a good idea. ::follows CTO::

CMO-LtRoyce:
*CO*: Dr. Lau, here, we're ready and on our way.

CSO_Lorenzo:
::runs another sweep of the system for ships::

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ *Smith* Chief.. I want to get some power back into these systems to get the bilge pumps working again.  Do whatever you need to

CTO_Kelson:
@::internal scream finally!::

CTO_Kelson:
@*XO* Aye, sir.

CMO-LtRoyce:
@ XO:  Sir, can we at least get the children out of here?

CTO_Kelson:
@::trots out of power room toward beam in point::

CIV_MacFarlane:

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ Royce:  Can they get to the Transporter Hub?

CMO-LtRoyce:
@ :: groups the women and children together ::

CTO_Kelson:
@::arrives at beam in point::

CMO-LtRoyce:
@ XO:  I believe they can, sir

CSO_Lorenzo:
*CNS* They found the colonists.  They are in bad need of medical attention.

CNS_Jalara:
*CSO*:  Any other readings?

CEO_Smith:
::stops beside the CTO::

OPS_Chapponte:
::still has a strong lock on the away team::

CSO_Lorenzo:
CO: I'm picking up something on sensors, three signatures, I'm trying to detect what they are.

CMO-LtRoyce:
@ :: looks at the women, soothing them with words of encouragement for them and the children::

XO_Cmdr_Tyfair:
@ *Smith* Then hop on a bicycle you rigged to the bilge pumps.. do whatever you need to. Get some micro-generators from the ship.  But we will need power even if its a little.

CTO_Kelson:
@CEO: What can we do to get the power on with no computer to start with? ::shakes head::

FCO-Lt_Doole:
@:: goes to the Wet-Dry Lab next to the Mess Hall::

CSO_Lorenzo:
*CNS* Yes, slight readings.

CO_Alar:
