USS Republic - April 15 2013

[Capt Rian Kwai 0]

Capt Rian Kwai -> Mission Briefing: Trapped together in a specialized vehicle in what seems to be the middle of the Icelea Grotto, one of Risa’s little known unusual geological wonders, the crew claims to have heard some sort of knocking on the vehicle’s hull. The security team is preparing to investigate.

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> ~~~Begin Sim~~~

Capt Rian Kwai -> ~~~Begin Sim~~~

Jameson Bardolph -> ::waiting for the word to open the door or not::

Jameson Bardolph -> ::one hand on his phaser and steeling himself for a blast of hot air in the face::

Jameson Bardolph -> ::raises phaser as the hatch opens::

STSF_BluRox -> ::stands and turns to watch::

Ayumu Kasuga -> see anything that might be out of the ordinary aside from the unique rock formations?

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> ACTION>THE CREW IS BLASTED WITH VERY HOT AIR AS SOON AS THE DOOR IS OPENED.

 

Christina_Nickles -> :: raises phaser and ready to move out::

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::squints, raises phaser::

Heather Jamieson -> Ohhh!

STSF_BluRox -> ::feels the temperature quickly rising as the hot dusty air blows in

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::steps out the hatch and takes a peak around both sides::

Christina_Nickles -> :: gasps at the excessive heat but moves forward:: This must be what Hell feels like

Jameson Bardolph -> ::groans at the air blast but forces himself to take a few steps forward after Will::

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::yells:: Anyone out here?!

Jameson Bardolph -> ::mumbling a stream of not very nice words::

Heather Jamieson -> :: Thinks it may affect her skin ::

Ayumu Kasuga -> Oh god. We're gonna melt!

August Jax Robinson -> ::Ducks::

Heather Jamieson -> In multiple colors...

August Jax Robinson -> ::Mentally blames Will::

Ayumu Kasuga -> I'm melting! Melting! Oh what a world!

LtCmdrRobinson -> 30 seconds Bardolph, look around and then back in the vehicle!

Capt Rian Kwai -> Smith>::trying to make sure the internal cabin regulators don't overheat::

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::heads out the right side::

Christina_Nickles -> :: moves out behind Will:: Ill go this way and meet you near the front? ::points off to the left::

Jameson Bardolph -> Aye, sir!

LtCmdrRobinson -> Nickles, hold the door.

 

STSF_BluRox -> ACTION:: Rapid rise in temperature makes the mottled spots on the three spotted women seem to brighten in intensity, almost to the point where the bluish green splotches now look like they would glow in the dark sorta of neonish.....

 

Heather Jamieson -> :: Tries to shield Ayumu a bit ::

Jameson Bardolph -> ::starting a mental count in his head as he circles off behind Will, peering around circles off to the left::

Heather Jamieson -> (nice)

Jameson Bardolph -> ::looking of any sign of movement::

Christina_Nickles -> Aye :: remains holding the door partially closed to try to keep the folks inside a bit cooler::

STSF_BluRox -> (I thought so!)

Ayumu Kasuga -> Are we radioactive?

STSF_BluRox -> (then a step to the righhhhhhttt)

Heather Jamieson -> :: pokes Ayumu :: Look...

Christina_Nickles -> ((and I’m outside so I MAY be glowing??)

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::quickly circles the vehicle::

Heather Jamieson -> We appear to be heat reactive and with my skin I'm even more so.

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> ACTION>THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE IS MISSING AS SLICED OFF AT THE BULKHEAD. GONE. ADIOS AMIGOS. PROBABLY EXPLAINS WHY THE COCKPIT CREW DIDN'T ANSWER BLU'S EARLIER DEMANDS FOR ATTENTION

 

Ayumu Kasuga -> Neon!

Jameson Bardolph -> Holy--

Ayumu Kasuga -> Woah!

Jameson Bardolph -> ::breaks off as he reaches the front of the shuttle::

Capt Rian Kwai -> ((Only those who went outside would see that folks. ))

Jameson Bardolph -> ::shakes his head to clear away the sweat beading down from his hair into his eyes::

Christina_Nickles -> ::calls out :: What is it?? Find someone??

Ayumu Kasuga -> Look at our faces.. we're glowing man

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::surveys the damage:: We are in trouble. Back inside, Bardolph!

Heather Jamieson -> Take a picture quick

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::heads back for the hatch with Barcode::

Christina_Nickles -> ::wipes her face with her hand noticing her color change:: dang

Jameson Bardolph -> With pleasure, sir. ::frowns and jogs back to the hatch, feeling his muscles starting to tremble in the heat::

Christina_Nickles -> What is it?

Jameson Bardolph -> Nickles> Whole fore quarter's gone. ::grimly::

Christina_Nickles -> :: opens the door for them as they get to the hatch::

Jameson Bardolph -> LIke someone took an axe to it.

LtCmdrRobinson -> Back in, now! ::to Nickles::

Ayumu Kasuga -> It's an adverse reaction to the heat, I think. But I am not a doctor

Capt Rian Kwai -> Smith>::glancing at his chrono:: They've got 8.4 minutes before they'll overheat out there.

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::gets everyone back in and closes the hatch::

Jameson Bardolph -> ::pushes rapidly past Nickles and into the blissfully cool air of the shuttle::

Christina_Nickles -> :: steps back inside::

Jameson Bardolph -> ::drops to his knees, then to his front, and presses his face against the metal of the floor::

 

STSF_BluRox -> ACTION: Part of the cure had a iodinated mildly radiolabeled isomer that would help grab the pigments, but not be injurious in any way or form...unless of course, it congealed and turned neon...in which case, it could ...just maybe, become almost like a permanent color tattoo....but that is to be seen.....

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> ACTION>TISA IS TAKING A NAP, DOESN'T KNOW ABOUT THE COLOR CHANGE GOING ON WITH THE FORMERLY GREEN GIRLS.

 

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::feels the air cool:: Thanks for closing the door. It was getting stuffy, and we're kind of melting here.

Capt Rian Kwai -> Smith>::adjusts the temperature to compensate for the hot air that explorers let in::

STSF_BluRox -> Report Will....

LtCmdrRobinson -> Well we didnt see anything out there, no people, no creatures...no cockpit to the vehicle anymore...

Christina_Nickles -> I was melting out there::

August Jax Robinson -> you are turning different shades..

Ayumu Kasuga -> ("Injurious" Interesting word :D )

STSF_BluRox -> Wait....What do you mean......no cockpit?

Jameson Bardolph -> Shuttle's nose is missing. ::rolls over so he's looking up at the ceiling, catching his breath::

STSF_BluRox -> Would you mind repeating that part?

Christina_Nickles -> Im glowing or I was out there.

Heather Jamieson -> Yes Jax.. :: quietly as she hears Blu ::

Jameson Bardolph -> Flat chop. ::mimes the clean edge of the missing hull with a sweep of a flat hand::

STSF_BluRox -> ::turns and bangs on the cockpit door again:: How can it be.....missing....

LtCmdrRobinson -> It's just...gone.

Jameson Bardolph -> No idea, ma'am. ::sits up slowly with a groan::

Christina_Nickles -> Is there a way they could have disengaged the two sections? Leaving us here??

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> ACTION>NO ANSWER FROM THE COCKPIT

 

STSF_BluRox -> But......how? And where is the ambassador? Is it meant to be....detachable? Did they go for help?

STSF_BluRox -> You'd have thought that they'd have at least let us know that they were leaving and would be back...

Jameson Bardolph -> Not a pleasant thought.

August Jax Robinson -> where did the drink dude go?

STSF_BluRox -> (unless of course that huge beastie out there that bit it off, didn't get them time to do so)

August Jax Robinson -> he should know!

Ayumu Kasuga -> Unless he also went with the others in the cockpit

STSF_BluRox -> Obviously, he would...cause he was taking drinks to the cockpit....and so he's not here with us

Capt Rian Kwai -> Smith>:;carefree and fancy free, not paying any attention to the conversation going on with the crew - only concerned with cooling himself down with his own paper fan::

LtCmdrRobinson -> I looked more like it was cut off.

Christina_Nickles -> :: sitting in a seat catching her breath after the venture outside::

Heather Jamieson -> :: Listening to all of this ::

Christina_Nickles -> :: wipes face off again::

LtCmdrRobinson -> Smith, how long before we can expect a rescue vehicle down here?

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::Listens as well::

 

STSF_BluRox -> ACTION: Christina looks like she was sitting in the first row of a Blue Man Group or Gallager show, without wearing the plastic bag.....

 

Ayumu Kasuga -> Oh mang

Capt Rian Kwai -> Smith> Hmmm? ::finally figures someone's talking to him, glances at his chrono:: Let's see. Add the one, carry the three.....ah, about 90 minutes, give or take. Why? ::glancing up::

STSF_BluRox -> Oh...wait....there is the dude ::looking towards the back::

Christina_Nickles -> (( ::grins:: good thing I like BLUE huh)))

Capt Rian Kwai -> Smith>::starts fumbling around again in the galley::

Ayumu Kasuga -> Any more drinks in there? :: to Smith::

STSF_BluRox -> Might want to make that something strong..

Jameson Bardolph -> Smith> Any idea where the cockpit went, Smitty?

Heather Jamieson -> :: Feeling sense of dread.. and aquamarine ::

Capt Rian Kwai -> ((Well, we know where Kasuga's priorties are))

STSF_BluRox -> (beer)

August Jax Robinson -> ::Moves next to Will::

Ayumu Kasuga -> (beer and bacon)

STSF_BluRox -> (or bacon)

STSF_BluRox -> (LOL!)

LtCmdrRobinson -> August, we need comms.

Capt Rian Kwai -> Smith>::gives Bardolph a cross eyed look:: It's behind that door up there, mate. You were just up there a half hour agao.

STSF_BluRox -> (round or flat?)

Ayumu Kasuga -> (both)

STSF_BluRox -> (both at once!)

Ayumu Kasuga -> (like a boss!)

August Jax Robinson -> {{a Bacon and bacon sandwich}}

Jameson Bardolph -> Smith> Well, it ain't there now, mate. We were just outside, yeah?

Christina_Nickles -> :: waving her hand in front of her face:: Heather can you toss me a water.

August Jax Robinson -> this deep, we are not going to reach

Capt Rian Kwai -> Smith>Sure it is. Just open the door. ::stirring up some drink mix::

Ayumu Kasuga -> Any more beer?

Jameson Bardolph -> ::gives Smith a narrow look, not sure if he's being made fun of, then goes to the cockpit door and opens it::

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::walks over to Heather and looks through the mini-fridge::

Heather Jamieson -> Ayumu, can you get me anything?

Ayumu Kasuga -> What do you want?

Heather Jamieson -> :: Tosses Christina a water ::

Capt Rian Kwai -> Smith>No, you drank al the beer.

STSF_BluRox -> Wait....

Heather Jamieson -> Something to take off the edge...

Ayumu Kasuga -> Aww. Only Bud Light ::Sad frown::

STSF_BluRox -> we don't know how long we will be stuck down here. Perhaps we should ration out that water,

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> ACTION>ANOTHER BLAST OF HOT DUSTY AIR FILLS THE CABIN

 

LtCmdrRobinson -> Bardolph!

Ayumu Kasuga -> Close the door!

STSF_BluRox -> and make sure we conserve what we have. Hey!

August Jax Robinson -> ack!!

STSF_BluRox -> Who opened..?

Ayumu Kasuga -> I agree, the Admiral has a valid point.

Christina_Nickles -> ::un does the cap and takes a drink of the water::

Jameson Bardolph -> ::slams his shoulder up against the door so it crashes shut::

STSF_BluRox -> ::Looks at Christina for disregarding what I had just said::

Jameson Bardolph -> ::gives Smith a look that could freeze the weather outside::

Heather Jamieson -> Right. And other items in this fridge.

STSF_BluRox -> Seriously?

Capt Rian Kwai -> Smith>There's no cockpit out there. ::amazed::

Jameson Bardolph -> Smith> Masterfully spotted. ::voice dripping with sarcasm::

Ayumu Kasuga -> Which isn't much. Some sandwiches, several ice cream bars and some cheese.

Capt Rian Kwai -> Smith>Where did it go? It was there 10 minutes ago.

Jameson Bardolph -> We were hoping you could tell us.

Ayumu Kasuga -> Aside from the cans of pop still remaining. We can also add that to the ration cont.

STSF_BluRox -> Well, then that's your bottle, don't be asking for more later:: glares at the security officer then turns to Will. She's yours...deal with it

Christina_Nickles -> :: recaps the bottle ::

STSF_BluRox -> Jax....can you help me figure out what we have in the way of supplies here?

Heather Jamieson -> :: Rubs Christina's shoulder :: Sorry

Christina_Nickles -> I just came from out side, ::holds the bottle for whomever to take from her::

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::moves out of the way and back to her seat so Jax can catalouge the supplies::

Heather Jamieson -> (now I'm thirsty)

August Jax Robinson -> I'm on it

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::grabs the bottle, hands it to supply master Jax::

STSF_BluRox -> Unless 'spots' here........

Ayumu Kasuga -> (so am I, now that you mention it!)

STSF_BluRox -> ::looks back at Christina::

Christina_Nickles -> ::looks away and down to the ground::

STSF_BluRox -> Wait...mark that one as hers…it's already been open and .....::has a thing about backwash and shudders::

Jameson Bardolph -> ::moving over to Smith, looks down at him with his arms folded:: If you know anything about this place you haven't told us yet, now would be a good time.

August Jax Robinson -> ::starts opening storage cubbies::

Capt Rian Kwai -> Smith>I know nuthkink!

STSF_BluRox -> Yea....it's been drank from...., now had it been alcohol, it would have sterile itself

August Jax Robinson -> ::Hands tools Jamieson::

Ayumu Kasuga -> (There we go.. )

STSF_BluRox -> ::approves of Jameson's technique::

Capt Rian Kwai -> Smith>Seriously. I know nothing. I've worked for the tour company for six months and nothing like a lost cockpit has ever happened. A broken transport....well.....every now and then. But a lost cockpit? Seriously?

Jameson Bardolph -> OK. Any stories told about this place? Weird occurrences? Gossip?

August Jax Robinson -> Hey Smith, it there a emergency exit or radio?

STSF_BluRox -> ::points behind Jax:: I believe the radio..would have been in the cockpit... and that entire wall, is now the emergency exit

Capt Rian Kwai -> Smith>Um...the communication system is mostly tied into the cockpit. But the transmitter is on the top of the shuttle. Sorry, no emergency exit.....unless you want to be baked.

August Jax Robinson -> ::Searches for breathers::

Heather Jamieson -> :: Takes the tools from Jax :: There's an extinguisher on the far wall. :: points ::

Jameson Bardolph -> ::to Jax:: Transmitter...could we hook a tric up to that?

August Jax Robinson -> only one... wait, on top?

Heather Jamieson -> :: Opens the tools :: A stardard kit.

Jameson Bardolph -> ::making a mental note to give this place a bad TripAdvisor and Yelp rating::

Capt Rian Kwai -> Smith>Yep. On top.

August Jax Robinson -> ::long sigh:: I guess I am going out there

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::doesn’t like that:: How about you tell me how to do it and I go out?

 

Capt Rian Kwai -> ACTION>JAX FINDS PARTS OF AN EMERGENCY ENVIRONMENTAL SUIT - NOT THE FULL SUIT, BUT PARTS THAT MIGHT HELP HER SURVIVE.

 

Christina_Nickles -> :; stands and walks to Will:: I volunteer to climb up on the craft and retrieve it

August Jax Robinson -> ::Give Will the "get real" Look::

LtCmdrRobinson -> I think we are just gonna hook up to it, not retrieve it. ::to Nickles::

STSF_BluRox -> (I read that as an entirely different word than Suit, but still had 3 of the same letters)

August Jax Robinson -> everyone step back, I can go out there and do this

46:49 Capt Rian Kwai -> Smith> This means they're going to open the door again, doesn't it? ::sigh::

46:54 Heather Jamieson -> (as did I blu)

47:04 Ayumu Kasuga -> (heh)

47:12 STSF_BluRox -> (lol)

47:13 Ayumu Kasuga -> At least you don't melt in the heat!

47:32 Jameson Bardolph -> Yep.

47:45 August Jax Robinson -> ::opens another hatch:: well there are parts to a suit

47:46 LtCmdrRobinson -> I need one to, I'll back her up then.

47:47 Christina_Nickles -> ::to Jax and Will:: Sirs your both Department heads.

Jameson Bardolph -> to Will/Blu> Should one of us be out thre to cover her?

Capt Rian Kwai -> Smith>::glancing at his chrono:: Help will be here in 75 minutes. Why do they want to go back outside?

STSF_BluRox -> I doubt that you'll melt either, just that you will...maybe be a little brighter!?

Jameson Bardolph -> to Smith> ::sardonically:: Given how well your prediction about the cockpit being there worked out, I'm not sure I trust your timekeeping.

Ayumu Kasuga -> Hmm. A human glow stick. Interesting.. I'll sure be the life of al rave parties

August Jax Robinson -> ::Pulls wires and cables out of a panel, shoves them in a carrier::

Christina_Nickles -> :: steps back to the door and waits::

August Jax Robinson -> Anyone have a palm light?

Heather Jamieson -> :: Would go herself if it would help everyone and show the Admiral she's not a big screw up ::

August Jax Robinson -> ::opens her tric, grabs a spanner and a few other tools::

Christina_Nickles -> I have a light here sir:: hands it to Jax::

STSF_BluRox -> (Meanwhile, swimming around in the dusty heat outside, is the giant landshark, that has eaten the front half of our ship.....

Jameson Bardolph -> ((lol))

August Jax Robinson -> ::Takes the light:: OK... I think I am ready

Ayumu Kasuga -> Good luck.

Heather Jamieson -> (Bet that landshark spies three bright objects in the ship too ::

Christina_Nickles -> Sir Are you sure you don’t want me to do this for you.

LtCmdrRobinson -> How long is this going to take, August?

Jameson Bardolph -> to Will> I'll keep a comm open, sir. ::taps badge to do so::

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::phaser back out:: If we are not back in 5 minutes, then something ate us.

August Jax Robinson -> ::Checks out the suit pieces:: I hope ten at the most

Capt Rian Kwai -> Smith>::muttering:: My math is fine

LtCmdrRobinson -> How about 5?

August Jax Robinson -> I can try ::pulls goggles on:: this place needs an OSHA visit

STSF_BluRox -> Understood Will, be careful

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::grabs the survival gear:: ready.

Christina_Nickles -> Be careful sirs. ::waiting to open the door for them::

August Jax Robinson -> as ready as I ever will be

Capt Rian Kwai -> Smith>Better minimize your trips back and forth there, folks. Or you'll over head the environmental units.

August Jax Robinson -> ::Takes a few deep breaths:: lets go!

Christina_Nickles -> :: waiting for Will t authorize opening the door::

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::nods:: open it

August Jax Robinson -> ::Pulls sleeve off Smiths shirt::

Christina_Nickles -> :: nods and opens the door::

August Jax Robinson -> thanks ::Covers nose and mouth::

Capt Rian Kwai -> Smith>Hey!

Jameson Bardolph -> ::braces self for the next blast of hot air::

Christina_Nickles -> :: gasps again at the blast of heat in her face::

August Jax Robinson -> ::Climbs out, starts up the crap ladder::

STSF_BluRox -> Ok...let's do this....

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::Nods::

Capt Rian Kwai -> Smith>How will they signal they want to come back in? ::raises a brow:: You all were so paranoid about the knocks against the hull earlier.

STSF_BluRox -> (remember, if they can't get back in....more water for us!!O)

LtCmdrRobinson -> ::has a phaser, can GET BACK IN::

STSF_BluRox -> (Ok...last chance to say it...)

Christina_Nickles -> I’m not moving until they return. If its longer than 5 minutes I’m going out there.

Jameson Bardolph -> We can keep a local comm still, I hope.

Heather Jamieson -> :: Wonders if just Will can come back.. ::

August Jax Robinson -> ::Pulls open the transmitter, start looking over what she is dealing with::

August Jax Robinson -> {{HEY!!}}

Capt Rian Kwai -> ((I see that Heather is more concerned about Will than Jax))

Heather Jamieson -> {{hugs}}

STSF_BluRox -> PAUSE SIM

STSF_BluRox -> PAUSE SIM

August Jax Robinson -> ::Paused::

Christina_Nickles -> ::paused::

Jameson Bardolph -> lol

Heather Jamieson -> :: Paused ::

Capt Rian Kwai -> Muhahahaha

Jameson Bardolph -> ::pawsors::

Ayumu Kasuga -> ::Paused::

Capt Rian Kwai -> So any questions?

STSF_BluRox -> but wait...do you mean to say that Heather's crush on Will is making jax look bad, or.....

Capt Rian Kwai -> Um...

STSF_BluRox -> That Jax doesn't care for Wil, or that

Heather Jamieson -> Oh Heather would never act upon these feelings

LtCmdrRobinson -> :)

August Jax Robinson -> better not....

August Jax Robinson -> ::Kicks Will::

STSF_BluRox -> Jax, you'd best start fighting for your man, before he's stoned

Heather Jamieson -> She'd not want to jeopardize the later training sessions he's supposed to have for her

Capt Rian Kwai -> TMI folks, TMI.

STSF_BluRox -> and....I need to get some rest, I'm sorta sapped. Again, thank you everyone. Your thoughts and words today meant alot.

Heather Jamieson -> :)

August Jax Robinson -> I know he is going no where

Heather Jamieson -> He's trapped? :: ducks ::

STSF_BluRox -> other than outside?

August Jax Robinson -> Beyond

Capt Rian Kwai -> Okay guys, I need to head to bed. So unless there's anything else.

STSF_BluRox -> or nowhere cause we have ...no cockpit?

Heather Jamieson -> Nothing else

STSF_BluRox -> Ok..so ...Crew Dismissed
