USS Manticore 9.20.2010

[Cmdr JFarrington 0]

=/\= USS MANTICORE BRIEFING #627, STARDATE 51009.20 =/\=

The Manticore has slipped into a parallel universe that is almost identical to our own. Science has verified that this occurred when the ship passed through a dust storm on its way to Maturin Station almost two weeks ago. We are now attempting to find the storm as we will need its unique spatial properties, if we have any hope of returning home.

 

LtCdrFaldek -> ::at Tactical, on the bridge::

Cmdr JFarrington -> ::after six hours she has everything balanced and working like a charm from OPS:::

Keb -> ::arrives on the bridge for a fresh shift at helm::

Mitar Precip -> ::on biobed comatose...but there are some neat pictures of bolian brains around medical::

Asteria Jaxa -> ::is sitting at the science console on the bridge waiting to hear something from science about the dust cloud::

MC_Escher -> ::has real time update of storm tracker running in corner of the main screen on the bridge as he pours through reems of data trying to relocate the dust cloud::

AlexRamirez -> ::Is in engineering, checking the status of all the systems::

Keb -> ::smiles at her husband before taking her seat from Helmguy.::

T'Prise -> :: In the main science lab, still working on configuration changes to the deflector dish and precise quantum calculations. Looks somewhat harried, for a Vulcan. ::

AlexRamirez -> ::Sighs at the sorry state of affairs that all the systems are in::

Eva Jaz -> ::back in SB taking a nap in the doc lounge in the back of main sb on a couch having crashed from caffeine deprivation::

Kansas Kenickie -> ::Enters Security::

Asteria Jaxa -> ::notices the Escher has arrived on the bridge and heads to the TL::

Mitar Precip -> Ensign Spair>::enters engineering with tool kit looking a little dishelved showing he has been busy::

Kansas Kenickie -> ::opens locker::

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> ::sitting in sickbay, head leaned on hand, thoroughly exhausted and staring a little uncomprehendingly at the summary of their work in the holodeck::

AlexRamirez -> Ensign Spair! Good to see you. ::waves over the ensign::

Mitar Precip -> Spair>::to Alex:: Sir..finally finished the interior of deck 14 repairs. WOn't be pretty as new...but spacedock will have her fixed and painted.

Vilanne -> ::sleeping in Mele's office because he's clearly off sleeping (or working) somewhere else::

T'Prise -> :: Opens up a direct link to the bridge station, so she can receive sensor readings on the storm and so Escher is fully updated on her progress. ::

Mitar Precip -> Spair>::walks over to Alex with his toolkit...the Ensign is kinda short for a human male::

Asteria Jaxa -> ::Steps out of the TL and heads for the main science lab::

Kansas Kenickie -> ::Pokes around in her locker::

Mitar Precip -> Spair>Thank you sir....sorry about the uniform...

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> ::taps the console sharply, making a noise of frustration::

AlexRamirez -> Thanks Ensign. I've been going over the systems, specifically the more jury-rigged ones. It's ok, Ensign, mine gets just as scuffed up when I'm doing repairs in the jefferys tubes.

Cmdr JFarrington -> ::spies the direct link opened, takes note:::

MC_Escher -> ::enlarges the science link to monitor power flows and consumption rate as piece by piece of the deflector dish is updated with brand-new emission algorithms::

Vilanne -> ::sharp noises make Vil snore, which half wakes her to turn over, falling off the short cushionbench and onto the floor, making a rather loud groan:: Oooofff!

Mitar Precip -> Spair>Thank you sir...just new to the crew..not familiar with the rules

LtCdrFaldek -> ::is very very thankful that Science is taking over science duties on the bridge::

AlexRamirez -> As long as we keep the ship going, we're good, a bit of dust and such isn't that out of place when we're keepnig this ship together.

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> <m> External stimuli is the obvious answer and yet it shows a distinct internal manifestation...what would be causing a change in synaptic activities with that level of regularity...

Vilanne -> ::wakes on the floor of Mele's nearly dark office, with just a few ambient lights on his desk, and the tiniest lights shining through the closed windows::

Cmdr JFarrington -> ::shifting parameters so science can do its thing, opts to sit back and monitor:::

Keb -> ::reviews Helmguy's history::

Admiral Atragon-9 -> ::enters the Bridge from his Ready Room::

AlexRamirez -> If you want you can go change, because we have some things needing to get overhauled, and quickly. Seems some of the jury-rigging is coming loose, so to speak.

Mitar Precip -> Spair>How are we doing sir? I haven't had a brief in 7 hours...with that problem on deck 14.

LtCdrFaldek -> Admiral on the bridge!

Keb -> ::...just of his course entries, mind::

Keb -> ::jumps up in salute::

Cmdr JFarrington -> ::stand:::

LtCdrFaldek -> ::was already standing::

AlexRamirez -> Ok, Ensign. Here's the situation.

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> ::sighs and squeezes the bridge of her nose tiredly::

Mitar Precip -> ::beep...beep...beep...the biobed goes to a rhythmic hearbeat rhythem::

Eva Jaz -> ::snores::

T'Prise -> :: Continues working at her console, trying to determine exactly how long they will need to create and maintain a stable slipstream tunnel in order to return to their own universe. ::

Eva Jaz -> ::in a cute way ::

Sovak -> ::stands from the CC and moves to XO seat::

Admiral Atragon-9 -> (We don't salute inStarfleet! {says it like Siegfried from Get Smart} )

Asteria Jaxa -> ::Enters the Main science lab and Greets T'Prise and Ian:: Hello

AlexRamirez -> ::Pulls up a repair schedule from a couple days ago, and puts it next to today's repair scans::

Keb -> (Pft, standing up IS a form of salute)

Vilanne -> ::removes hand from head, adjusts uniform while standing up, then goes out of the office::

Ian_Syndrx -> ::in main engineering working on the EPS modifications::

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> ::glances over at Precip's biobed and hauls herself heavily out of her seat to look at his readouts::

Admiral Atragon-9 -> ::sits in the CC and pivots it right at MC:: Mr. Escher, you've had enough play time. Tell me you're ready

Mitar Precip -> Spair>::looks with interest::

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> ::purses lips:: <m> Na better.

T'Prise -> :: Gives Jaxa a vague nod, still firmly entrenched in her work. ::

Cmdr JFarrington -> ::notes the strange silence, which sounds even more silent since the last goround:::

Keb -> ::takes her seat in a form of AntiSalute::

Kansas Kenickie -> ::heads back to quarters::

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> ::moves restlessly around the edge of the bay towards the lounge and pokes her head in:: Jaz> Maenek!

Cmdr JFarrington -> ::joins Keb in sitting:::

LtCdrFaldek -> ::has to stay standing::

Vilanne -> ::body and mind wake up, perky and refreshed:: G'moanin everyone! What's the status?

Eva Jaz -> ::is startled in her sleep and falls off the couch :: Putain..... What?!? ::gets up::

Asteria Jaxa -> ::Moves to her console and begins monitering they systems that are currently being on::

MC_Escher -> ::gives the Admiral an incredulous look:: Play, sir? The preliminary calculations were only recently completed, the deflector dish requires constant backups and syste checks, and we're diverting a huge amount of power where it isn't meant to go

AlexRamirez -> We had repaired the starboard power couplings to the nacelles which were blown out or fused, but it seems some of them have imperfections, and now it looks like we're going to have to replace them, again.

Kansas Kenickie -> ::Enters quarters, sneaks back in::

MC_Escher -> So no, sir, we're not quite ready

Vilanne -> ::minimal whistle:: Hey... where is everyone? ::looks around::

T'Prise -> +Syndrx+ T'Prise to Syndrx

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> Eva> ::not noticing her dishevelment:: Two hours. We do na have time for this; his condition has na improved...

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> ::glances back out into the main bay and nods tiredly at Vil:: Rokhinu...

Ian_Syndrx -> +T'Prise+ Go ahead

Eva Jaz -> Coffee?

Mitar Precip -> Spair>okay..can we replicate parts?

Cmdr JFarrington -> ::wondering just how far away from ready is "not quite":::

Eva Jaz -> :: runs her hand through her hair , heading to the coffee maker ::

Kansas Kenickie -> ::removes boots, crawls back into bed:: Wake up sleepy head

Admiral Atragon-9 -> ::frowns:: well, you better be able to get ready in a hurry

AlexRamirez -> We should have a couple in storage, I think storage bay 4, I was up there replacing cloaking generator emitters and I thought I saw some up there.

LtCdrFaldek -> ::pushes a few buttons on the console::

Eva Jaz -> ::poor herself a cup and drown it in a second :: Jai> You were saying ?!

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> ::dryly:: You know where to find it.

Vilanne -> ::quietly watches the gals go to the coffee maker area:: Well, looks like we all rested well.

AlexRamirez -> Secondly, the jury-rigged phaser banks seem to not be at 100% due to degredation in the relays. We're going to have a definate problem if we need them and they're not at full strength.

T'Prise -> +Syndrx+ I believe I have a achieved a stable scenario for projecting this slipstream tunnel. How soon before the re-rerouted power to the main deflector dish is online?

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> I was saying he has na improved.

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> ::gives Vil a "I hope au are joking" look::

Mitar Precip -> Spair>Speaking of emitters sir....errr....::continues to listen::

Eva Jaz -> ::rubs her eyes and extend her hand to get the PADD with his vitals :: May I?

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> By all means. ::passes the PADD over::

AlexRamirez -> Yes Ensign, you were about to say?

Keb -> ::eyes on her console, wondering whether it'll be a good idea to fly anywhere close to the storm::

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> I have been going over the readings for the last two hours. I can na determine why his synaptic patterns should have altered.

Vilanne -> ::smirks and starts pouring cups of coffee for everyone, passing them out:: Drink up.... it'll be another double, at least I'm sure.

MC_Escher -> ::fighting frayed nerves to keep a civil tongue with the Admiral:: This is obscenely complicated stuff. Even once everything is in place we'll have to run a series of tests in order to make sure this thing doesn't rip the Manticore in half

Ian_Syndrx -> +T'Prise+ Engineering teams are almost done reinforcing the EPS conduit from the engines to the deflector dish, I'll need about ten more minutes to calibrate everything

LtCdrFaldek -> ::eyes shift towards Escher::

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> ::gestures "na" at the coffee::

Cmdr JFarrington -> ::over her shoulder, to Ian:: Looks fixed. ::Points:::

Kansas Kenickie -> ::Whispers in McFly's ear:: Wake up

Eva Jaz -> ::takes a look :: have we figured out thar electrical thing the computer suggested? You're the brain doctor .. is it even possible ?

T'Prise -> +Syndrx+ Understood, please keep me apprised of the situation so we can begin test scenarios once your work is complete.

Admiral Atragon-9 -> If we have that luxury, Lt. Commander

Admiral Atragon-9 -> ::pivots back forward::

Mitar Precip -> Spair>Well sir..I was concerned about the Inertial Dampening Field's emitters. We took one heck of a leap to warp 9 in a hurry leaving the battle. I was wondering about their condition. We don't wamt anyone turning into tomato paste..if we go to warp sir.

Mitar Precip -> Spair>Of course you may of already fixed them sir..Sorry sir.

Asteria Jaxa -> ::Looks up at T'Prise as she answers engineering:: Well at least things seem to be coming together

Ian_Syndrx -> +T'Prise+ I will, Syndrx out.

T'Prise -> +Escher+ T

T'Prise -> Prise to Escher

Admiral Atragon-9 -> ACTION: THE TACTICAL DISPLAY PINGS WITH THE RESUMPTION OF THE PARTICLE TRAIL FROM THE STORM

AlexRamirez -> That would be an unfortunate circumstance... Computer. <Beep> Run a level 4 diagnostic on the IDF. <Beep>

LtCdrFaldek -> I got the particle trail back...

Sovak -> ::Looks up as he hears the ping::

McFly -> ::kicks his leg like a sleeping dog; flails his arm while talking in his sleep-- no more security reports

Cmdr JFarrington -> ::straightens up, hearing the ping:::

AlexRamirez -> That should tell us if we're going to have a problem.

MC_Escher -> ::gives the Admiral a look and spins back to monitor his display:: +T'Prise+ Escher here, go ahead

Keb -> ::glancing around, also::

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> ::nods slowly:: That is what I mean. The pattern of synaptic firing is altered -- subtly...but enough to cause disruption of functions in a way his race is particularly susceptible to.

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> I have na seen anything like it before.

Admiral Atragon-9 -> Good, Mr. Faldek. Feed the data to Helm and let's get going

AlexRamirez -> But first, we need to get this power distribution problem fixed. Let's get a grav-sled and get it to storage bay 4. I'll meet you up there, alright Ensign?

Mitar Precip -> Spair>Yes sir. I assume the ....power cuplings would take precident over the tactical systems...but arent we at war?

LtCdrFaldek -> Aye. ::transmits coordinates directly to the helm console::

Keb -> ::sets up the course as the data comes in:: Setting a course to follow the trail, Admiral.

Eva Jaz -> ::holds finger up :: Need ... More... Coffee :: resists the urge to drink straight from the pot and downs 2 cups in a row ::

T'Prise -> +Escher+ Commander, our preparations are nearing completion, we should be able to begin test scenarios within the next half hour. As the Manticore has not been retrofitted with increased hull strength to withstand quantum manipulation, I suggest (cont...)

McFly -> ::wakes up seeing KK next to him:: what time is it?

Admiral Atragon-9 -> Go, Keb, go

Cmdr JFarrington -> Ian> Mr. Syndrx, engineering teams have finished reinforcing the EPS conduits to the deflector dish. You are cleared to proceed.

Vilanne -> ::hands Jai's cup to Eva::

Mitar Precip -> Spair>::gets going with AlexRamirez to the grav sled::

Keb -> ::nods:: Tracking the trail at 1/2 impulse, sir.

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> Eva> Remind me when I have the mental capacity to spare that someone needs to address au addiction. ::deadpan::

Sovak -> Full impulse, Commander Mizu.

Eva Jaz -> Sorry I thinkMy own brain stopped functionning here ... Ok so can anything related to the storm maybe cause this synaptic mishaps?

Keb -> ::nods again, moving her fingers over the console:: Accelerating to full impulse.

Ian_Syndrx -> +Jami+ Acknowledged.

T'Prise -> evacuation of all non-essential personal to the center areas of the ship. There will be less of a chance of hull stresses and breaches in those areas.

Eva Jaz -> ::nods:: I'll tell you ...

Kansas Kenickie -> nine hundred

Cmdr JFarrington -> <Thought you were on the bridge, Ian>

Ian_Syndrx -> <nope, engineering>

MC_Escher -> +T'Prise+ Understood. I'll let the Admiral know. Escher out.

McFly -> ::groggy:: dude... five hours is not enough

Sovak -> Decrease speed if the trail fluxuates.

Kansas Kenickie -> we are still cloaked and repairs are being made, nothing has changed since we left

McFly -> figures

Vilanne -> A couple 220's on his ears may cause the same response to a synaptic pattern disruption.

Asteria Jaxa -> ::Notices the change in speed and looks at the storm tracker set up in the lab::

Vilanne -> But there wasn't a report about a power grid explosion...

Kansas Kenickie -> I brought you a Muffin

Cmdr JFarrington -> <mybad, then you would know better than I, Ian>

MC_Escher -> ::Atragon:: Sir, the slipstream drive will be in place within the half hour. I also recommend moving all non-essential personel to the middle of the ship, as that area is the least at risk to quantum tearing and stresses

Kansas Kenickie -> and Coffee

Keb -> Yessir. ::listens at the ship reaches full impulse:: Moving at full impuse now. Trail is still apparent.

Eva Jaz -> ::is more relaxed having ingested the recommended caffeine dose for a 500 lbs man for a week ::

McFly -> that's great but what did you bring for breakfast

Cmdr JFarrington -> ::not sure she likes the sound of that:::

Ian_Syndrx -> ::starts alligning the plasma flow to the deflector dish::

Admiral Atragon-9 -> 1Thank you, Mr. Escher

Kansas Kenickie -> A Muffin and Coffee ::Makes a face::

Mitar Precip -> Spair>::follows AlexRamirez:: Boy when I left Maurtin I couldnt believe this ship's capabalities on my quick brief...she must be indeed a challenge to maintain sir...corrrect?

Admiral Atragon-9 -> Jami, go warm up the Battle Bridge, it's time to go underground

T'Prise -> :: Goes back to her work, and although projecting a calm tone and demeanor, something in her face is revealing the smallest hints of stress. ::

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> ::shakes head slightly: I'm na sureif it was the storm...if so, why would the effect have struck so long after we've been here...na, something about where we are must have caused a gradual shift...

Cmdr JFarrington -> Aye, Admiral.

LtCdrFaldek -> Shall I accompany the Commander, Admiral?

Mitar Precip -> Ensign Crystal>::in holodeck practicing Martial Arts::

McFly -> ::sips the coffee:: I'm already late, I should probably get dressed

Cmdr JFarrington -> ::tappitytap:: Bringing the battle bridge online.

Admiral Atragon-9 -> Mr. Faldek, contact the Security office, have Sec details start moving people away from the fringes

Sovak -> Security, evacuate the outer sections of the ship. Move to designated shelter sections.

AlexRamirez -> Yeah, it's a real pain at times. You can call me Alex, by the way.

Admiral Atragon-9 -> (or what Sovak said - yeah!)

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> Could the impulses themselves have been altered? We know little or nothing about this space...is it possible that...::trails off, thinking::

Cmdr JFarrington -> ::wondering if an all hands is in order:::

LtCdrFaldek -> Yes sir. +Security+ Please report to the outer sections of the ship and move all personnel moved to the interior of the ship.

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> ((is sickbay is in an inner section?))

Mitar Precip -> Spair>Yes sir...I mean Alex..sorry...::follows:: I mean two warp cores...incredible!

Cmdr JFarrington -> <deck 6 is not exactly inner>

Sovak -> 15 minutes, Mr Faldek.

Ian_Syndrx -> ::begins channeling a trickle of quantum energy through the new system and to the delfector, keeping a very careful eye on the flow to prevent any averse quantum effects::

Cmdr JFarrington -> ::shifts::stands and moves to the TL:: Battle bridge.

LtCdrFaldek -> +Security+ 15 minute deadline.

Mitar Precip -> Crystal>::after flooring a holo andorian hears the All Call and leaves the holodeck::

Kansas Kenickie -> ::Looks at Comm Badge:: You get dressed, I will get to work on the outer decks

McFly -> ::having had routed the main securities comm system to his quarters, mcfly hears the faldek:: +faldek+ ::groggy:: acknowledged

AlexRamirez -> You're not kidding, Ensign Spair. That extra power comes at cost, though. We're real tight with keeping this ship in line.

Sovak -> <<And have the Coffe Pot moved to the Battle Bridge>>

McFly -> exactly what I was thinking

Eva Jaz -> ::raises an eyebrow:: Jai > COuld it be this easy ?

Admiral Atragon-9 -> (McF, what is this? Telecommuting?!)

T'Prise -> :: Monitoring the new EPS relays for negative flow, running simulations as fast as she can, checking and rechecking calculations. ::

Cmdr JFarrington -> ::exits the TL on the battle bridge:::

Sovak -> ::rides the TL with the others::

Vilanne -> <<LOL A9 McF>>

Ian_Syndrx -> +T'Prise+ I'm ready here T'Prise. You can begin your tests.

Vilanne -> What Eva, zap him? What are you thinking?

Cmdr JFarrington -> ::moving immediately to the OPS console to log in and power up:::

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> Na, rokhinu.

Keb -> ::flying steadily towards the storm::

Kansas Kenickie -> ::Gets up:: See you later ::winks::

T'Prise -> +Syndrx+ Acknowledged. T'Prise out.

Eva Jaz -> ::brain hyped up on coffee thinking way too fast ::

Cmdr JFarrington -> Operations transferred.

T'Prise -> +Escher+ T'Prise to Escher.

Eva Jaz -> :: speaking a little quickly:: where are those reports from science?

Asteria Jaxa -> ::Continues to moniter the storm::

McFly -> ::guzzles the coffee wincing as it burns his esophogus::

Admiral Atragon-9 -> ::still on the Main Bridge::

MC_Escher -> +T'Prise+ What do you have for me?

Ian_Syndrx -> ::begins reconfiguring a console in engineerng to monitor the new systems::

Kansas Kenickie -> :::Runs down the hall:: Make a hole!

Eva Jaz -> ::looks around , tapitty tap tap ::

Cmdr JFarrington -> ::tappitytaptap:: +A9+ All systems go for battle bridge.

McFly -> ::springs out of bed as fast as a barely awake person can and dresses in record time::

LtCdrFaldek -> ::locks down his Tactical console and sets to transfer to the Battle bridge:: Admiral, permission to head to the battle bridge?

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> ::turns towards Vil:: I believe Maenek Jaz and I are thinking along the same lines...that the electrical impulses in their brains are actually behaving differently as a result of the new...place we now find ourselves in.

T'Prise -> +Escher+ Commander Syndrx has completed rerouting of systems and power, we are ready to begin our tests.

AlexRamirez -> ::Enters Storage Bay 4 and holds the door open for the Ensign::

Mitar Precip -> Spair>You may have to reach for some repairs for me...kinda on the short side..however if you need me to crawl in anywhere I got good marks at the academy for accessing tight spots.

Cmdr JFarrington -> :::Sovak:: Power stable. All systems nominal. Standing by.

Admiral Atragon-9 -> +Jami+ Good to hear, I'll be right th... ACTION: TAC CONSOLE STARTS BEEPING QUICKLY

Eva Jaz -> ::nods semi crazily :: ... and this entire dimension is affecting them!!!

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> Breathe, maenek.

LtCdrFaldek -> ::unlocks the console and checks the beeping::

Sovak -> Acknowledged.

Vilanne -> I think I got that much, but how are you considering to disactivate?

Kansas Kenickie -> ::Helps people move quicker::: lets go people

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> But ie...and if that's the case, I would na call it easy. Because...::to Vil:: I do na know.

Vilanne -> ::eyes open wide at Eva:: Calm down girl.

LtCdrFaldek -> The storm is on sensors now.

Admiral Atragon-9 -> Mr. Faldek?

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> I am na sure we could. We can na change the laws of physics.

Admiral Atragon-9 -> Let's se it - on screen

LtCdrFaldek -> ::places the storm on both screens, bridge and battle bridge::

Mitar Precip -> Crystal>Move along people..move along!

McFly -> ::once the caffine kicks in mcfly uses his patented lightning fast speed to reach the opposite end of ship from where KK is and directs the evacuation::

Cmdr JFarrington -> ::activates the viewscreen:::

Admiral Atragon-9 -> Yup, thar's it alright

AlexRamirez -> ::laughs:: Commendable, Ensign. I think this will work out well, considering I'm a bit bigger, but also taller. Let's get this fixed... oh and hey I was right, ::points in the corner to a stack of power relays and converters:: I'm glad I remembered.

Keb -> ::glancing up at the screen:: Sure looks familiar.

MC_Escher -> +T'Prise+ I'll let you know via the console when the Admiral okays them. How much will be involved in the tests? Will we be creating a quantum slipstream tunnel?

Keb -> ::gives a little sigh;;

Eva Jaz -> ::shakes her head slightly calmer :: We can't deactivate ... we have to get back to our own dimension before their bodies give up

Admiral Atragon-9 -> funny, it seems smaller. Naah, I guess it was always that size

Kansas Kenickie -> ::Double checks to make sure section in clear::

LtCdrFaldek -> I had never seen it before, Admiral.

T'Prise -> +Escher+ It would be advisable to do so and send a probe through to verify readings.

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> ((are we at alert?))

Admiral Atragon-9 -> Alright Beran, let's get to the BB

Mitar Precip -> Spair>glad you did Alex..would of been like crossing a Romulan to get back here.

Admiral Atragon-9 -> Put us at Yellow Alert and lock it up

Keb -> ::slows the ship:: How close do you want us, Admiral?

Cmdr JFarrington -> <And Keb?>

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> ((ah, there we go :P ))

LtCdrFaldek -> Aye sir. ::locks down his console and sets yellow alert, just before::

Vilanne -> ::slightly throws hands up in the air:: And just how do you expect to do that from down here?

Kansas Kenickie -> ::moves to the next section, moves people along::

LtCdrFaldek -> Evacuate the bridge. Lock down your consoles. I'm the last one out.

AlexRamirez -> Heh, you're right about that Ensign. ::smiles::

Admiral Atragon-9 -> +JAMI+ Jami, we are shutting down the Main Bridge. Send out a bulletin to all depts to move to safe inner locations

Admiral Atragon-9 -> Keb, keep us at 2000 KM

Cmdr JFarrington -> +A9+ Acknowledged. All functions transferred to Battle Bridge.

Mitar Precip -> Spair>::looks at lights:: Yellow alert sir...I mean Alex...wonder what's going on? ::ensign curiousity::

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> ::notes the flare of yellow alert:: Oh, fvadt...

AlexRamirez -> ::Notices the yellow alert going off:: Well, Ensign, I think that's our call to go back to Engineering, double time.

Asteria Jaxa -> ::Looks up at the yellow alert and moves to help T'Prise with monitering systems::

Keb -> ::nods at A9, moving Manticore into position:: Transferring helm control to battle bridge now.

MC_Escher -> ::blinks as his console goes dead and then remembers the talk of the BB, turns to A9:: Admiral, we're ready to begin tests on your go-ahead

LtCdrFaldek -> Admiral, ::follows him onto the TL, last one in::

Cmdr JFarrington -> +All Hands+ Yellow alert. All nonessential personnel to inner locations immediately. This is not a drill.

Eva Jaz -> ::notices as well ::

Admiral Atragon-9 -> Alright Keb, let's go

Mitar Precip -> Spair>Yes Alex..got your back...::double times it::

Keb -> ::closes up her console and races ahead of Faldek with a wink at him::

T'Prise -> :: Looks at the storm and begins in our calculations once more. ::

McFly -> ::uses tricorder to check section clarity and for ship updates; notes the main bridge shut down::

Vilanne -> Well, just keep everyone stable, we don't know what's incoming. I will check w/bridge

Sovak -> +COM+ Battle bridge has helm.

AlexRamirez -> ::Hears the commander's voice on the comm:: Well, never mind. Let's go.

Vilanne -> +Bridge+ Sickbay here, will we have incoming?

LtCdrFaldek -> Perhaps we could transfer life support from the evacuated sections to reinforce shields and structural integrity?

Admiral Atragon-9 -> ::stands and looks around the Bridge like Han Solo looking at the Millenium Falcon in Episode 6::

Cmdr JFarrington -> ::takes the helm as well in the absence of Keb:::

AlexRamirez -> ::Double times it to the TL, and waits for the ensign to get in before calling out Engineering, non-stop.

Cmdr JFarrington -> +Vilanne+ Possibly. Prepare for anything.

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> Hta'Dva!...

Cmdr JFarrington -> ::does not say complete anhillation::

Mitar Precip -> Spair>::in TL::

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> ((we can fill that bit in on our own pretty well, i think :P ))

Cmdr JFarrington -> <or however it's spelled>

Sovak -> ::looking at Storm on BB viewer:: Does it look smaller to you, Commander?

Kansas Kenickie -> ::Moves people along:: Get going

AlexRamirez -> ::TL flies down the shaft to main engineering::

McFly -> <<shouldn't it be like picard taking one last look before evacuating the enterprise to live out his days in 21st century earth only to realize he needs to rescure data?>>

Eva Jaz -> ::flls a giant to go mug ... is now prepared for everything :: What now ?

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> ::glances towards Eva:: We need to get them secured.

Keb -> ::grins at A9:: Hey, Admiral, we'll be back soon.

Vilanne -> ::off com:: Great.... everyone, prepare for incoming... get the stables patients into the back areas.

Eva Jaz -> ::nods and heads to the patients ::

Admiral Atragon-9 -> ::he joins Keb in the TL:: Let's go

Cmdr JFarrington -> Seriously, Captain, I did not notice the first time through. It seemed a small dust storm.

Ian_Syndrx -> :: starts running a full diagnostic on his monitoring system::

Cmdr JFarrington -> Nothing to really take note of.

Cmdr JFarrington -> But it *does* look different. Somehow.

Keb -> ::takes Faldek's hand in the TL::

Sovak -> ::nods::INdeed.

AlexRamirez -> ::Exits the TL and enters Main Engineering:: Well, let's get the core locked down in case something happens, Ensign.

Vilanne -> ::to Nurses:: Whatever's not locked down and is not triage equip, move back to storage or the lab. We do not know what's incoming.

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> ::speaks i a low voice to the couple of mobile patients occupying biobeds and directs them to get themselves somewhere more secure::

Admiral Atragon-9 -> ACTION: AWKWARD SILENCE AS KEB AND A9 RIDE THE TL

Kansas Kenickie -> +McFly+ Starboard sections are clear

Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> ((rofl))

AlexRamirez -> ((Hehehehe))

Eva Jaz -> << :P>>

Admiral Atragon-9 -> <<No, Faldek left ahead of us>>

Cmdr JFarrington -> Action> cool lift music plays.

Mitar Precip -> Spair>What is going on...::mutters:: Yes sir!

Keb -> ::stares awkwardly at A9::

MC_Escher -> <<What about me, A9?>>

LtCdrFaldek -> ::exits the TL and enters the BB::

Admiral Atragon-9 -> ::stares at a spot on the TL wall::

Sovak -> <<Sends "I did it my way" by F.S to the lift music>>

MC_Escher -> <<Am I just sitting alone on a dead bridge? =P>>

McFly -> +KK+ right, same here, head to sickbay to make sure they're secure, i'll do the same for engineering

Cmdr JFarrington -> Action> Lift music changes to "For all we know"

Cmdr JFarrington -> ::save science, that is working its tail off:::

Mitar Precip -> Spair>::the green ensign ...despite being in battle is sweating...he wipes his brow and focuses on power relays..:: Aye sir..I mean Alex..Yes.

AlexRamirez -> Oh and it looks like the IDF's good, but thanks for bringing that up eariler.

Cmdr JFarrington -> +Science Minions+ Report secure.

MC_Escher -> ::about to protest her going down there, but then decides to wait to object until closer to the actual event:: +T'Prise+ Acknowledged
