[Chirakis 1]

=/\= Aegis Mission Brief 3/10/17=/\=

24 February 2388

 

No TBS. The time is 1310 hours (1:10 pm) Aegis local. The energy-hungry cloud is still spreading toward Aegis. There might be a way to lure the cloud toward the sun. Missouri has rescued the crew of Shray, but the ships are still trapped. Task Force Aegis has modified deflector dishes to plow through the cloud and rescue the Missouri.

Chirakis -> ::CnC, minding the TAC console::

mimipavilion -> ::in medical::

Fletcher Jackson -> ::OPS:::

Dacia Sandero -> ::in sickbay::

Kallah Ramson -> Status?

Lawliet -> ::CnC::

Chirakis -> The cloud is still approaching, Captain. No word from Missouri.

Alexis McFarland -> ::in the foodcourt, finishes her burger and fries and is now drinking her drink::

Tarisa -> ::In the hazard lab, with the specimen. She has a side monitor on with the Missouri rescue mission status on it.::

Tarisa -> Miana> ::Also finishing eating.::

Cptn d'Ka -> # Mr. Tan, life support status?

Kallah Ramson -> Science, are their fleets actions having any effect?

Alexis McFarland -> Ahh, that was yummy.

Cdr Wyatt Cayne -> :: patrolling ::

Lawliet -> Scanning...::scans the area of the task force::...the task force is approaching the cloud now. On screen.

Cptn d'Ka -> # Tan> We have approximately an hour and a half, captain. On the conservative side, we have several beyond that if we count the emergency stores in the bays.

Scott Coleridge -> ::on the CnC, pondering their plans::

Fletcher Jackson -> ::tap..taptap:: Captain, the task force reports that they are having success with the modified deflector dishes. They have to work quickly, and the runabouts are behind them.

Kallah Ramson -> ACTION> minor sensor readings start coming through the cloud.

Fletcher Jackson -> And the cloud is closer to Aegis than we thought. ::Puts it up on screen::

mimipavilion -> ::goes through medical and makes sure that everything is in place::

Fletcher Jackson -> Sensor readings coming through. ::puts them up also:::

Tarisa -> ::Watching the display for the moment.::

Cptn d'Ka -> # Status of the Shray crew?

Cptn d'Ka -> # Sojek> Not good, Captain. Medical is doing all they can, but lack of oxygen has done some damage.

Dacia Sandero -> ::helps organize things in the med lab::

Cptn d'Ka -> # Lei'ri> ::leans close, speaking confidentially:: Captain, is this thing sentient?

Lawliet -> ::monitoring the clouds dispersion caused by the deflectors::

Cptn d'Ka -> # If it is, I am not aware.

Cptn d'Ka -> # :;glances over, speaking quietly:: You know I cannot discuss such things.

Kallah Ramson -> ACTION> Cloud damping field begins to drop dramatically.

Cptn d'Ka -> # Lei'ri> Aye, Captain.

Chirakis -> The dampening field is dropping. Quickly.

Lawliet -> ::scans for the Missouri::

Kallah Ramson -> Can we operate vessels in it?

Chirakis -> I believe that is something we will find out when it happens.

Kallah Ramson -> Science. Answers. Can we send in the runabouts yet?

Cptn d'Ka -> # Tan> Captain. ::turns:: There is a very small signal coming through.

Cptn d'Ka -> # Explain.

Cptn d'Ka -> @ Tan> Almost like Essex's SAR signal, Captain.

Cptn d'Ka -> # Reply with the countersign.

Lawliet -> I'm picking up areas clear of the dampening effect. The runabouts will need to navigate through the openings, but they'll be able to get through.

Kallah Ramson -> Tac, send them in. Get Missouri and Shray out of there.

Cptn d'Ka -> # Tan> Countersign sent.

Chirakis -> Sent, Captain.

Kallah Ramson -> ::Scott:: We get those ships to safety then we can move on to clean up. Any more ideas on that yet?

Lawliet -> ::mapping out the gaps in the cloud for the runabouts::

Scott Coleridge -> We're thinking about sending it into the sun

Chirakis -> ::Scott:: We will be going dark completely?

Tarisa -> ::One of her other running consoles beeps. She turns to it and begins studying the data.::

Scott Coleridge -> I'm hoping we only have to deactivate our matter/antimatter reactors. The fusion reactors can continue to operate, so only non-essential systems will have to go offline.

Chirakis -> When the ships return, should we advise them to do the same, or will it matter?

Chirakis -> ::hoping they return::

Tarisa -> +Scott+ Commander, the results of the simulation are in. It looks promising. I am forwarding the data. ::Sends.::

Scott Coleridge -> They should also shut down their warp cores, yes.

Cdr Wyatt Cayne -> Gila> :: working the shop ::

Scott Coleridge -> ::reviews the incoming data::

Cptn d'Ka -> # Tan> Captain, it is the Essex. Another ping. Definitely SAR.

Cptn d'Ka -> # ::nod:: Reply with countersign.

Kallah Ramson -> What are the estimates on the time we'll need to be powered down?

mimipavilion -> ::is satisfied with how medical is and waits::

Cdr Wyatt Cayne -> :: sends an 'all quiet' message to Chirakis::

Chirakis -> ::hears the ping, looks, acknowledges:::

Kallah Ramson -> ::looks at the status boards::

Lawliet -> ::looks up at the main display::

Cptn d'Ka -> # ::a glance at the bridge crew tells him that they are watching diligently for rescue::

Cptn d'Ka -> # Tan> Captain, sensors are draining quickly.

Cptn d'Ka -> # Which is draining more?

Kallah Ramson -> So? How long will we need to stay powered down?

Cptn d'Ka -> # Tan> The reactors, sir.

Cptn d'Ka -> # ::curious:: Shut them down.

Cptn d'Ka -> # ::Lei'ri begins to protest but he raises his hand to quell it::

Kallah Ramson -> ACTION> Runabouts close on Missouri. The beams are still weakened by the cloud but they begin to tractor the ships away.

Cptn d'Ka -> @ Inform engineering to shut down the matter/antimatter reactors, Mr. Tan.

Lawliet -> Sir, sensors show the runabouts are beginning to tow the Missouri out of the cloud.

Cptn d'Ka -> #Doland> Captain, we're under tow.

Cptn d'Ka -> # By what?

Cptn d'Ka -> # Doland> They look like runabouts.

Cptn d'Ka -> # Comply.

Kallah Ramson -> As soon as we can make contact find out the status of the crews. Get any wounded to our medical ASAP

Scott Coleridge -> We need to stay on fusion reactor power until the cloud has been drawn into the sun

Cptn d'Ka -> # Mr. Tan, squirt a packet without status to the closest one.

Kallah Ramson -> That... that could take a while.

Fletcher Jackson -> Captain, a message from Missouri via several relays through the runabouts.

Fletcher Jackson -> Sending to your console.

Kallah Ramson -> ::looks it over::

Kallah Ramson -> Get Missouri docked and medical crews to the airlock.

Fletcher Jackson -> Aye, Captain.

Fletcher Jackson -> +MED+ OPS to Dr. Pavilion.

Kallah Ramson -> Relay the shutdown orders to all ships in our area. Any ship without the provisions to stay powered down for several days are to dock with Aegis.

mimipavilion -> +Ops+ Pavilion here

Fletcher Jackson -> +MED+ Missouri will be coming into Docking slip 5A-B. Medical crews needed there.

mimipavilion -> +Ops+ Understood.

Fletcher Jackson -> Aye, Captain. Sending message to all ships in the area.

mimipavilion -> Dacia, alpha team; you're with me.

Dacia Sandero -> Got it.

Dacia Sandero -> ::follows along::

mimipavilion -> ::grabs a kit and hustles to Docking slip 5A-B::

Cptn d'Ka -> # ::stands, wishing they had adequate communication to thank the Essex:::

Fletcher Jackson -> Captain, Essex is on approach in advance of Missouri.

Kallah Ramson -> Begin sequential shutdown of our reactors. Low power protocols are in effect.

mimipavilion -> ::arrives at docking slip 5A-B::

Scott Coleridge -> Affirmative. ::contacts department heads to notify them of the situation while Ops handles the switchover::

Fletcher Jackson -> ::tappitytaptaps the information::

Tarisa -> ::Begins putting the hazard lab into lockdown, then exits.::

Cptn d'Ka -> # ::the welcome sight of Aegis appears on their limited screen:: Mr. Doland, cut power to engines. Give the station tenders full control.

Fletcher Jackson -> ::switching everything over:::

Lawliet -> ::sends a signal down to the other science labs to shut down::

Chirakis -> ::notifies security to power down to minimal::

Fletcher Jackson -> Missouri is docked, Captain.

mimipavilion -> ::hears the comm, notifies her staff to get medical to power down to minimal::

Cptn d'Ka -> # ::feeling the slight thump, he gives a sigh of relief:::

Kallah Ramson -> ::begins dictating message to Command letting them know Aegis will be going dark...happy this means they can't grill her for hours on the latest local issues::

Cptn d'Ka -> # Tan> Going to minimal station power.

Lawliet -> ::gets confirmation:: Science is powered down.

Chirakis -> Security is powered down.

mimipavilion -> ::waits for the airlock to open::

Kallah Ramson -> Well everyone, get your camping gear and ghost stories ready. We're going primitive for a bit

Fletcher Jackson -> Medical and engineering report power down.

Chirakis -> =/\==/\=PAUSE SIM=/\==/\=

Chirakis -> =/\==/\=PAUSE SIM=/\==/\=

Chirakis -> 3/10/17

Chirakis -> Thank you.

Chirakis -> Captain, TBS?

Kallah Ramson -> Okay, I'm going to say it will take 5 days for the cloud to move enough away to safely begin powering up. TBS will be 2 days into that.

Chirakis -> So the station will remain in power down.

Kallah Ramson -> Yes.

Chirakis -> Mimi, medical will be the most powered area of the station. You need that for your patients. Not fully powered, but as much as you need. The rest of us will... fumble through.

mimipavilion -> Understood. We will have generators as back up.

Chirakis -> Anyway...

Chirakis -> If nothing else, crew *dismiss*. Be well. Be safe. Don't forget your towel.
