[sTSF_Laura] === /\ === MISSION BRIEFING === /\ ===

[sTSF_Laura] The USS Venture (Galaxy class) has been dispatched from Starbase 157 to investigate recent sighting of "a big white lump of jelly", as one freighter crew described it. There are also reports, as yet unconfirmed, that the mass has attacked at least one ship.

[sTSF_Laura] === /\ === BEGIN SIM === /\ ===

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC> ::In his office reading over security reports::

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> ::floating in the firmament:::

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC>:: on bridge monitoring the ships sjields::

[Joy_12] <OPS> :: Settles in to look for white jelly... ::

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> ::standing on the bridge, looking at a sector map at one of the rear consoles::

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> ::materializes on the bridge:::turns to OPS:: <OPS> Have all department heads report in. Tails, too, if they have them.

[Ens_Quelsar] <HELM>::Imputs course correction and checks ETA::

[Joy_12] <OPS> :: Thought most jelly was grape or strawberry... ::

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> :::turns to OPS, giving her the eye:::

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC><CO> Sir, I suggest we approach this object with caution we do have reports of attacks on ships.

[Joy_12] <OPS> <CSEC, CENG, CMO, CSCI> Please report department status.

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC> ::Tapping his commbadge:: +OPS+ Joy, Security checking in

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> <TAC>::turns towards Flores, nodding:: And according to reports, conventional weaponry doesn't seem to have much of an effect on this... thing.

[sTSF_Shadow] <CMO, CSCI, CENG> Ready and able.

[Joy_12] <OPS> <XO> :: Joy's Innocent Look ª ::

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC><CO> Sir, I will try to perhaps focus more on our shields and defensive tactics.

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC>+ASEC+ Mr. Melendez, please patrol deck 10 and check on our Beta shift please.

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> <TAC> Very good.

[Joy_12] <OPS> <XO> All departments reporting good, sir.

[Cdt.Melendez] <ASEC><CSEC> aye sir

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> ::strokes his chin:::turns back to the task at hand::

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> <OPS> Any sign of the mass on sensors?

[Cdt.Melendez] <ASEC> walks to the turbolift

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC> ::Reading his report on the outbreak between 2 crewmembers in Ten-Forward.

[Joy_12] <OPS> <CO> I have a possible... large life sign in vacuum.... 11 mark 02., half a light year out. Not sure it is our jelly.

 

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> ::checks reports on his console::

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> <OPS> Well, let's have a look. <HELM> Helm, come about to 11 mark 02.

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC> Wow, an argument over...a a table. Very smart.

[Ens_Quelsar] <HELM><CO>Aye sir

[sTSF_Shadow] ROSTER UPDATE - CSCI - CLIFF157

[sTSF_Shadow] ROSTER UPDATE - CSCI - CLIFF157

[Joy_12] <OPS> :: Does as best she can to put it on screen at this range. ::

[Cdt.Melendez] <ASEC> starts to patrols deck 10

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC> ::Chuckles under his breath after reading the report::

[Ens_Quelsar] <HELM>::directs the ship towards what may or may not be the 'jelly'::

[sTSF_Laura] ACTION> The blur that appears on screen does appear to be light-colored and amorphous.

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> ::Looks up to the screen:::

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC><CO> Sir, the um.. blob is in range shall I raise shields.

[Joy_12] <OPS> <Helm> Less formed than the typical GSA.

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> ::squints at the blur::

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> Strange-looking. ::turns to Flores:: Blob. Good description.

[cliff157] <CSCI><XO> what would you want me to do

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> <TAC> Yes, raise shields, please... and let's go to yellow alert.

[Ens_Quelsar] <HELM><OPS>::nodds:: yeah. They weren't kidding when they called it a blob.

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC>:: raises all shields::

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> <CSCI> See if you can get some readings on that blob ::points to the screen:::

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC>:: orders computer to yellow alert::

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC> ::Exits his office and walks down the corridor and walks into the armory checking sidearm and pasher rifle status::

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> <CSCI> And while you're at it, you might want to figure out how we can take care of it before it takes care of us.

[Ens_Sisson] <<phaser*>>

[Joy_12] <OPS> :: Starts polotting its speed and acceleration rates. ::

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> <OPS> anything in history records that compares to this . . . thing?

[cliff157] <CSCI><XO> that Blob looks like it contance some kind of a toxic Gas

[sTSF_Laura] ACTION> The blob does not appear to have any internal structures. It is moving at high sublight speed, method of propusion unknown.

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> <CSCI> Toxic gas? It looks more solid than gas to me.

[Ens_Quelsar] <HELM>::puts a reverse course on standbye, just in case they have to bolt::

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC> ::Takes a padd from a security officer which shows the current stock of phasers and phaser rifles:: Thank you crewman. ::Stares back down at padd and sees a full stock::

[cliff157] <CSCI><XO> i will double check

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> <to anyone> Of course, gas may be its propulsion. ::wry grin::

[Joy_12] <OPS> <XO> There have been any number of Giant Space Amoeba sightings, with wide variety of sizes and colors. No really good matches for this one.

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> ::hears Joy. Nods thoughtfully:::

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC>+ASEC+ Mr. Melendez, Once you finish your patrol, meet me in my office with a report of your "findings"

[Joy_12] <OPS> :: Sets the computer to search through GSA reports, trying to find a match. ::

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> <XO> Could be. ::walking down to the command well::

[Cdt.Melendez] <ASEC><CSEC>aye sir

[Joy_12] <OPS> <XO> Warp capable ones are fairly rare. Torpedoes will usually out range their attacks. This one seems larger than most, though.

[cliff157] <CSCI><XO> that blobs is like a Dead star with little life

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> <OPS> Just how large is it?

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC><OPS>Is there any known way of attacking these amoebas if there is I may be able to get some sort of idea on attacking this thing.

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> <CSCI> How is it like a dead star? It's moving, seems to be alive...

[Joy_12] <OPS> <XO> Thus far, I've only seen it stretch to 7 kilometers. If it formed a sphere, I' d guess 3 klicks.

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> <ALL> All input is welcome, folks.

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> ::frowning:: <OPS, CSCI> Any signs that it's... breathing? eating? Composition change, gas exchange...

[cliff157] <CSCI><XO> Im not quiet sure what it is

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> ::mulls over the size::: <CO> Well, if all else fails, we can have dessert.

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> <ALL> We're going to look fairly silly if this is some sort of free-floating industrial goo....

[Joy_12] <OPS> <TAC> Many of them are just thin giant single celled bio forms. Very fragile. Phasers or torpedoes just blow them apart. Others are plasma entities. They absorb the energy, feed on it, and look for more.

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC>+ASEC+ Melendez, I'm heading up to the bridge, you can set your report on my desk there. ::Walks out of the armory and enters TL:: Computer, Bridge.

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> <XO> I don't know if we stocked enough whipped cream.

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO><CO> Well, Mr. Cliff did mention it didn't seem to be alive.

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC><XO> Sir, Im no scientist but dont many if not most gasses have some way to ignite them.

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> ::waves a hand::: <CO> Referring to the industrial goo, that is.

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> <CSCI> Mr. Cliff, care to elaborate? Evidence of life?

[cliff157] <CSCI><CO> it does suck energy from other ships and Planets

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> ::nods, listening to Cliff:::

[Joy_12] <OPS> :: Wonders, if it really is jelly, whether it might better be absorbed by USS Republic's toast, or the Hood's donuts... ::

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> <CSCI> Ah, yes, the rumored attacks... then your theory is that this is a deliberate behavior?

[cliff157] <CSCI><CO> with us this close we may be the next to go if we don't back of a bit

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC> ::Exits the TL and steps onto the bridge:: Hmm, what a nice blob that is.

[cliff157] <CSCI><CO> yes thats what im saying

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC> ::Stares at the view screen looking at the blob it shows::

[Joy_12] <OPS> <CO> We might send a probe into its area, see if it gets attacked, and the nature of the attack.

[Ens_Quelsar] <HELM>::considers the organism:: <no one particular>It's almost like a giant, space-dwelling jelly-fish.

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> <Helm> Interesting analogy.

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> <OPS> ::nodding:: Make it so.

[cliff157] <CSCI><CO> is there any planet close my that maybe harmed

[Ens_Quelsar] <HELM>::scanns for plannets at CSCI's comment::

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> <CSCI> We are fairly well out, I believe... <HELM> Helm? What's our position?

[Joy_12] <OPS> :: Programs a general purpose impulse probe for a close in pass. Emphisis on life form and plasma readings. Course slowly spirals in, but not intended to touch. ::

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> <TAC> Mr. Flores, coordinate with Science to see what we should do about this thing...

[Cdt.Melendez] <ASEC><CSEC>i am done with my patrol sir

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC> ::Walks over to the railing of the bridge::

[Joy_12] <OPS> <Tac> I've a probe ready to feed into Tube 2.

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC><XO> Aye, Sir

[Ens_Quelsar] <HELM><CO>You're correct sir, there's nothing for at least two light years in any direction.

[cliff157] <CSCI><CO> this blob does move ever meter

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> <HELM> Thank you, Mr. Quelsar

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC> ::Hears the report from Melendez and tapps his commbadge:: Very well, proceed to the armory and inspect the phasers please.

[Joy_12] <OPS> <CO> I'm ready for launch. :: Preps to save and analyze data ::

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> <CSCI> Interesting, Cliff.

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC><CSCI> Have we got any idea on the objects origin.

[Cdt.Melendez] <ASEC><CSEC> aye what about my report sir

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> <CSCI> It's moving a quite a good clip, isn't it? Still no sign of what propulsion it uses?

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC>+ASEC+ Leave it on my desk please, I will read it later

[cliff157] <CSCI><CO> its spaces its self sir

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC><Bridge> So what exactly is this thing?

[Cdt.Melendez] <ASEC><CSEC> aye sir

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> <CSEC> That's what we're attempting to determine, Mr Sisson. ::quick grin:: Any thoughts?

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> <OPS> Make it so.

[cliff157] <CSCI><CO> we need to launch a prob at the blob to get a better reading

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC><CO> Im not a scientist, but is it generating any particles as its moving?

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> <CSCI> ::blinks:: Space itself?

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> ::loves saying that:::

[Joy_12] <OPS> :: Launches the probe ::

[Ens_Quelsar] <HELM>::checks their possition relative to the creature, making sure it's not moving in their direction::

[Joy_12] <OPS> <XO> So made...

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> <CSCI> I do believe we just did... ::glances at OPS for confirmation::

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC><OPS> Please transmit all data from the probe.

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> <CSCI> Probe is away. Coordinate with TAC to see what you come up with.

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC><OPS> To my station.

[Joy_12] <OPS> :: Forwards probe data to Science and Tac ::

[[Cdt_Flores] <TAC>:: recieves data and begins analysis of data::

[Cdt.Melendez] <ASEC>walks to the trubolift and heads to the armory

[cliff157] <CSCI><CO> it looks like from the prob they are looking and scaning the area

[Joy_12] <OPS> <All> I tried not to threaten it with a direct approch. Spiraled in. But if it attacks things, it attacks things.

[sTSF_Laura] ACTION> The blob begins moving toward the probe.

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> ::loves watching the cadets in action:::

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC><XO> Sir, my readings show that there is a large change in temperature within the blob.

[sTSF_Shadow] <Blob> ::Ohhh...they are feeding me:::

[Joy_12] <OPS> :: Plots its rate of speed. Looks for reaction mass being ejected opposite it's acceleraion. ::

[cliff157] <ASCI><CO> is like the tempture of the sun

[sTSF_Shadow] <Blob> :::yummmm:::

[Ens_Quelsar] <HELM>::watches the blob overtake the probe on view screen, hopes it doesn't come after them next::

[cliff157] <CSCI><XO> is this the only Blob

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> <CSCI> I'm so glad.

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC>:: thinks to himself did that blob just say yummy or am I hearing things::

[sTSF_Laura] ACTION> The probe is completely swallowed within the blob.

[sTSF_Shadow] <Blob> ::burrrrrrrp:::

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC><ALL> Did anyone else hear that.

[cliff157] <CSCI><CO> the prob is still working in side that blob

[Ens_Quelsar] <HELM><anyone in general>Maybe now it's not hungry.

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> <TAC> Sounded like...a burp?

[sTSF_Laura] ACTiON> The blob turns towards the Venture.

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC><All> ::Sees the probe being swalled by the blob:: Hmm, think we could try firing a delfector pulse at it? Possibly see how it reacts?

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC><CO> Sir, the blob is approaching us.

[Ens_Quelsar] <HELM><all>I spoke too soon.

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> <XO> Leaving aside the question of how sound can travel in space...

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC>:: raises shields and weapons.

[Joy_12] <OPS> <ASCI> Solar temperatures? This will be one of the hot ones. Phasers might not work so well.

[sTSF_Shadow] <Blob> ::shimmyshimmylookingforfoodyum::::big piece over there:::

[Ens_Quelsar] <HELM><XO>Should I back us away?

[sTSF_Laura] ACTION> The blob glomps over the Venture's shield bubble.

[cliff157] <CSCI><CO> send i torpetoes

[Joy_12] <OPS> <XO> Still haven't seen it go FTL. We could challenge it to a drag race.

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> <Helm> Sounds like a good idea.

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC><CO> Sir, I will fire on your mark but the blob is still approaching us.

[Ens_Quelsar] <HELM>::really does not want to be eaten::

[Ens_Quelsar] <HELM>::putts thrusters in reverse::

[cliff157] <CSCI><CO> i don't think this thing has a name

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> <TAC> Let's hold off on that a minute. <CO> Have we any directives concerning unique species, etc?

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC>:: Fires torpedoes.

[Ens_Quelsar] <HELM><CSCI>Let's call it Munchy then, shall we?

[Joy_12] <OPS> :: blinks ::

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> <TAC> HOLD FIRE

[cliff157] <CSCI>::nods

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> <XO> Aside from the standard protocols... I'd like to avoid killing this thing.

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC>:: manages to hold fire at last second::

[cliff157] <CSCI><CO> the torpeto made it back off a little

[sTSF_Shadow] <Cliff, that would take an action statement from a GM B) >

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC><All> Maybe this blob is searching for energy, and since we seem to be a large energy source, it might be coming for us for that reason.

[Ens_Quelsar] <HELM>::Does her best to keep at least a small distance away from Munchy::

[sTSF_Laura] ACTION> Fragments of the blob break off from the torpedo impact. Some drift into space, others return towards the Venture. A few appear to be sucked into the ramscoops.

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> ::watching the screen, wondering just what the torpedo did:::

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC><CO> Sir, We seem to have hurt this blob.

[cliff157] <CSCI><CO> will the sensor go around the blob to see anything is be hind it

[Joy_12] <OPS> :: possible contacts. ::

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> <TAC> Well, let's not kill it... Can we make it let go -- gently?

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC><XO> I suggest we fire a delfector pulse out at the blob. If it reaches out for it then we can try and find someway to lead it away from us

[Joy_12] <OPS> +CENG+ Possible ingestation of giant space ameba into ram scoups!

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> <OPS> That doesn't sound good.

[sTSF_Laura] <Baby Blobs> ::slurpslurpnewhome!slurp::

[cliff157] <CSCI><XO> we can try something i believe may work

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> <TAC> What's that sound?

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC><CO>Phasers may not have a very harsh effect on the blob and it may back off.

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> <CSCI> What's your thinking, Cliff?

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC><XO> It seems to be originating form the blob.

[cliff157] <CSCI><XO> use our Reflectors area

[sTSF_Laura] <Baby Blobs> ::slurpslurp:: ::newfood!::

[Ens_Quelsar] <Helm><XO>They seem to want food, right? What if we fasioned a meal more appetizing than ourselves?

[sTSF_Laura] <Crewman Redshirt> ::devoured by blobs::

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC><XO> It may be just umm... burping as before.

[Cdt.Melendez] <ASEC>+CSEC+phaser inspections are done sir

[Joy_12] <OPS> :: Runs diagnosics on ram scoups and ship's surface ::

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC><CO> Sir, shall I use phasers

[sTSF_Laura] ACTION> The blobs appear to be on the lower engineering deck.

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> <CSCI,CSEC> DEflectors. Sounds like a winner. Like giving it a little shock?

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC>+ASEC+ Alright

[Joy_12] <OPS> <XO> Possible intruder allert. Something is happening in engineering!

[Ens_Quelsar] <HELM>::torpedo was a BAD idea::

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> <XO> ::nodding:: Sounds like a good idea.

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC>+ <CSEC> Security there is a intruder breach report to engineering.

[cliff157] <CSCI><CO> thats it we need to somehow to make it appitie bad

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC> ::Turns to Flores:: Im on my way. ::Runs to TL:: Compter, Main Engineering

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> ::under his breath:: Finally. <OPS> Signal intruder alert as a precaution.

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> <CSCI> All right, let's get the deflector tuned.

[cliff157] <CSCI><XO> that why i considered the Deflector

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> <CSCI> Excellent idea.

[Joy_12] <OPS> +Public Addres+ Intruder Alert. Intruder Alert. Security to lower engineering!

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC><CO> Sir, I suggest we brake off from this thing by any means and flee to a safe distance.

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC>+ASEC+ Melendez, report to main engineering grab a phaser and tricorder. We have an intruder onboard.

[cliff157] <CSCI>CO> its tuned to the highest frequetce

[Cdt.Melendez] <ASEC>+CSEC+on my way

[Ens_Quelsar] <HELM><XO>Once we've got it to back off, we'll need something to distract it away from us. Maybe a shuttle craft or something, to draw its attention?

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> <TAC> I'm not fond of having it plastered to the shields, either, but we can't go around killing indiscriminately. Work with Cliff on the deflector zap; let's try that first.

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC> ::Wonders if the blob will be immune to phasers::

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> <HELM> ::grin:: You volunteering?

[cliff157] <CSCI><CO> i put a little something in the oray for a posion like

[Ens_Quelsar] <HELM>::thinks about it::<XO>I suppose I am, sir.

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC><CSCI> Please inform me when you have made the proper modifications to the deflector shield.

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC> ::As he exits the TL, he grabs a phaser rifle from a weapons locker and enters main engineering::

[Cdt.Melendez] <ASEC>grabs a phaser and a tricorder and runs to the TL

[sTSF_Shadow] <XO> <HELM> Commendable, Mr. Quelsar. However, let's see if the zapper works.

[Joy_12] <OPS> <XO> You might consider sending it something big and cold... like 1 degree kelvin.

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> <CSCI> ::frowning:: Negative on the poison -- We just want it to let go.

[cliff157] <CSCI><CO> understood

[Ens_Quelsar] <HELM><XO>Aye sir

[cliff157] <CSCI><TAC> Ready when you are

[Ens_Quelsar] <HELM>::Really, really, REALLY hopes it does, for her own sake, if not the ship's::

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC> ::Stares at the large blob in main engineering and steadly awaits his ASEC::

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC><CSCI> Very well, <CO> Captain I will use the deflector shield on your mark.

[Cdt.Melendez] <ASEC> steps off the TL and runs to the outer door of engineering

[sTSF_Laura] <Baby Blob> ::hmm.. glowytowerthingy... yummy?::

[sTSF_Shadow] <oy...the warp core?>

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC>+OPS+ Joy, has his thing gotten into any of the engineering systems yet?

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> <TAC> All right. Cross your fingers, everyone... Mark.

[Joy_12] << Hot. No, baby... Hot. >>

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC>:: Intializes the deflector shield::

[sTSF_Laura] <just a thought, for now...>

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC> Melendez, come on. Where are you?

[Joy_12] <OPS> <CSEC> I am not showing major malfunctions yet.

[Ens_Quelsar] <HELM>::obediently crosses her fingers::

[cliff157] <CSCI><CO> we should back off a little bit just in case

[Cdt.Melendez] <ASEC>walks in thought the doors

[sTSF_Shadow] <AENG> AHHHHhhhhhhhhh....I'm being swollo.....;::blub:::

[sTSF_Laura] ACTION> The blob begins to jiggle as the deflector pulse makes contact

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC><CO> Capatain the deflector shield does not seem to be working.

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC> ::Arms his pasher to Lvl 1 and prepares to fire at the blob::

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC><CO> Correction Sir something seems to be happening.

[Cdt.Melendez] <ASEC> sir i am reporting

[sTSF_Shadow] <Flores, wait for the action statement from the GMs :lol:>

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC><ASEC> Prepare to fire your phaser at lowest setting, on my orders

[cliff157] <CSCI><CO> i had it all sorted out and it just went dead sir

[sTSF_Shadow] <good - don't mind me I'm slow tonight>

[Cdt.Melendez] <ASEC><CSEC>aye sir

[sTSF_Laura] ACTION> The blob jiggles more violently.

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC><ASEC> Short 3 second bursts, fire!

[Joy_12] <OPS> <CSCI> Some degree of vibration is developin.

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC><CO> The blob is moving Sir.

[Ens_Quelsar] <HELM>::looks promising::

[sTSF_Laura] <CO> <TAC> Continue pulse.

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC>:: continues with deflector shield pulse::

[cliff157] <CSCI><OPS> compensating

[Cdt.Melendez] <ASEC><CSEC>aye sir

[sTSF_Shadow] <Blob> :::hehehe::::chucklesnort:::hahahahahaaaaaa::::

[sTSF_Shadow] <Blob> ::giggling uncontrollably:::

[Ens_Quelsar] <HELM>::is it ticklish?::

[sTSF_Laura] <but are we tickling it, or telling it a really good joke?>

[cliff157] <CSCI><TAC> do it now i modified it

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC>:: Initializes a stronger pulse::

[Ens_Quelsar] <or just doing something really amusing>

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC> ::Turns to Melendez:: I'm not sure that worked, set to level 5 and fire on my mark

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC>:: wonders if the deflector is even working::

[cliff157] <CSCI><TAC> it says it on down here

[Cdt.Melendez] <ASEC><CSEC>aye sir

[sTSF_Laura] ACTION> The baby blob in engineering swells and then explodes into fragments, which rain down all over engineering... and then begin consuming things again!

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC> Oh boy...

[cliff157] <CSCI>transfers the deflectors files again to <TAC>

[sTSF_Laura] <<Two minute warning>>

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC><ASEC> Start firing at the little blobs at a high setting, see if you cant disentigrate them

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC><ASEC> Cause it doesnt look like we have much choice

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC><CO> Sir maybe we are hurting the blob unknowingly.

[sTSF_Laura] ACTION> The large blob begins to release the ship

[Cdt.Melendez] <ASEC><CSEC>aye sir

[Ens_Quelsar] <poor little baby blob : (>

[cliff157] <CSCI><CO> try to speak to it

[sTSF_Shadow] <I'm having flashbacks to Ghostbusters.>

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC><CO> Capatain we are starting to be released.

[Ens_Quelsar] <HELM>::stands by to back up to a safe distance::

[Joy_12] < Sorcerer's Aprentice, here. >

[Cdt.Melendez] <ASEC><CSEC>sir that is not working sir

[sTSF_Laura] <We've been slimed!>

[Cdt_Flores] <TAC>:: tries to bring shields back online::

[NDak] << Who you gonna call...>>

[Ens_Sisson] <whats happening with our blobs in ENG?>

[sTSF_Shadow] <Blobs> :::slurping up everything they can find:::

[Ens_Sisson] <CSEC> Keep trying! We need to make sure we take them out!

[cliff157] <CSCI><CO> the blob is shrinking
