[Chirakis 1]

Chirakis -> =-/\= Aegis Mission Brief 8/28/15=/\=]

Chirakis -> 30 January 2388

Chirakis -> TBS was 12 hours.

Chirakis -> The time is 1000 hours, 10:00 am, Aegis local.

Chirakis -> The remains of Droid 1 and Droid 2 are simmering, but they have stopped transmitting.

Chirakis -> Several ships have left An-Ward, heading toward Breen space.

Chirakis -> Aegis has detected a ship coming from Breen space, headed toward Aegis.

Chirakis -> ::hands the mic to Ramson::

Kallah Ramson -> Any questions?

Kallah Ramson -> Then let's go.

Chirakis -> =/\==/\=BEGIN SIM=/\==/\=

Chirakis -> =/\==/\=BEGIN SIM=/\==/\=

Fletcher Jackson -> ::CnC after coffee break::

Dacia Sandero -> ::in sickbay doing things::

Chirakis -> ::CnC, hovering over Jackson::

mimipavilion -> ::in her office in sickbay::

Fletcher Jackson -> ::gulp::

Lawliet -> ::CnC, at his station::

Jylliene -> ::CnC, ops::

Chirakis -> ::staring at the tactical overlay::

Kallah Ramson -> ::on CnC, watching the long range sensors::

Chirakis -> They seem to be taking their time, Captain.

Alexis McFarland -> ::With Annisha again::

Kallah Ramson -> We caught them with long range scans.

Scott Coleridge -> ::enters the CnC after break and more tests on the droid parts::

Chirakis -> ::turns to acknowledge Coleridge:: Commander. ::nod as she would to a superior officer::

Scott Coleridge -> The droid computer core is quiescent again. I disconnected its external supply, but it has an internal battery we didn't see at first.

Kallah Ramson -> Your opinion on the program it's running?

Tarisa -> ::Enters the Science labs.::

Annisha -> (some issue)

Lawliet -> ::monitors the long range sensors::

Scott Coleridge -> The miners didn't create it, that's for sure.

Tarisa -> ::Goes to a station to check on a couple reports and some data.::

Chirakis -> ::stepping away from the main tactical console, she approaches Lawliet and speaks quietly:: Commander. ::polite nod::

Kallah Ramson -> ACTION> Incoming ship still incoming, but sensors image not clearing up. Presence detected but it's shields seems to be blocking all other scans.

Jylliene -> ::continuing to track the incoming ship's trajectory, as well as expected friendlies::

Lawliet -> ::looks and nods at Chirakis:: Captain. ::looks at his readings:: Odd.

Chirakis -> ::aside:: Explain.

Scott Coleridge -> I have more questions than answers at this point.

Fletcher Jackson -> ::watching them, too, and wondering if he should engage the defense grid::

Kallah Ramson -> What do we need to answer them?

Fletcher Jackson -> ::but they will engage on their own if we have a threat::

Dacia Sandero -> ::gives a hypo to Ensign Martinez to help with his hypertension::

Alexis McFarland -> (Wb!)

Lawliet -> The vessel is still closing, but the sensors are unable to refine data. It appears they have means to block our sensors...to a degree.

Annisha -> (about ready to give up_

Chirakis -> (Never give up! Never surrender!)

Kallah Ramson -> ::listening to Lawliet, but focused on Scott at the moment::

Dacia Sandero -> (Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down....)

mimipavilion -> (Oh burn, Dacia)

Lawliet -> ::checks the vessels speed::

Scott Coleridge -> ::Ramson:: Oh, I don't know. Someone coming forward and explaining why they modified two standard mining droids to search for Horta, allowed them to be sold to someone who probably didn't have Horta, then somehow reactivated them on Aegis when we just happened to have a Horta on board … but not until weeks after the Horta first appeared?

Dacia Sandero -> (Not a Rick Astley fan, I take it)

Chirakis -> Block our sensors. As a vessel did at An-Ward?

mimipavilion -> (Meh)

Lawliet -> Apprently so...

Annisha -> :: With Alexis ::

Tarisa -> ::Studies the data a bit more before getting up, grabbing a PADD. She then heads to the lab housing the droid cores.::

Kallah Ramson -> ::Scott:: Seems someone has more intel on us then we do on them.

Alexis McFarland -> ::Wearing a Pony t-shirt, pink shorts and a pair of flip-flops, follows Annisha along, wherever they are::

Scott Coleridge -> That seems to be the rule more than the exception since we moved into this neighbourhood.

Kallah Ramson -> ::smile:: We

Jylliene -> ::frowns hearing that, but can't disagree::

mimipavilion -> ::sighs:: never ending pile of PADDs

Kallah Ramson -> we're just that popular

Alexis McFarland -> How're you feeling Annisha? Still feeling like yourself?

Chirakis -> ::listening to the conversations and watching the board::

Annisha -> :: Looks at Lexy :: No.. no I don't..

Kallah Ramson -> ::turning to Lawliet:: Any ideas on how to get a better scan on the incoming?

Alexis McFarland -> Oh? You're not gonna punch me in the jaw again are you?

Lawliet -> ::to

Nijil tr'Korjata -> :: Awoke suddenly at his desk in main engineering ::

Lawliet -> ::to Ramson:: I'm uncertain at the moment. I could try a rotating modulation or relector pulse.

Nijil tr'Korjata -> :: "Why did not one wake me?" ::

Kallah Ramson -> ::nods:: See what you can do.

Lawliet -> ::nods and begins working on both options::

Tarisa -> ::Studies the core for a while.::

Chirakis -> ::quietly:: You have another in science who is quite expert, I understand::

Scott Coleridge -> ::Lawliet:: If its shields are reflecting our scans, perhaps we could set up interference pulses between several defense grid platforms and build up a picture that way.

Kallah Ramson -> Ops, begin sending stander greetings and advice the incoming they are entering our flight control space and to prepare for instructions.

Annisha -> No, I would do a roundhouse or a leng.

Fletcher Jackson -> ::getting a knot in his gut::

Alexis McFarland -> What's a 'leng'? Sounds painful.

Fletcher Jackson -> ::stressed out with the waiting, he almost wishes they would attack or something::

Fletcher Jackson -> ::oh. wait. no, he doesn't wish that;:

Lawliet -> ::to Coleridge:: Excellent idea. The reflector pulse would give us an idea of it's image and working the defense grid in that manner would help matters.

Annisha -> A what? I said a trip.. I would sweep your 'uS out from under you.

Kallah Ramson -> ::steps over towards Scott:: Help them with clearing up that sensor image. Who did you have working with you on the core?

Nijil tr'Korjata -> :: How long had he been asleep? ::

Scott Coleridge -> Timir.

Jylliene -> ::sending the greetings and such::

Scott Coleridge -> ::joins Lawliet at science::

Alexis McFarland -> My 'uS? What's an uS? Like a buS? Or a MuS?

Kallah Ramson -> ::nods:: I have an idea.

Jylliene -> No reply yet, Captain. Continuing to transmit.

Kallah Ramson -> ::turns back to her station::

Lawliet -> ((I'm in the CnC))

Annisha -> I said legs. Is the translator not working?

Kallah Ramson -> ::Ops:: Understood.

Annisha -> jIQoS

Kallah Ramson -> ::Chirakis:: Let's warm up interceptors.

Chirakis -> ::nod:: Yes, Captain.

Lawliet -> +Tarisa+ Lawliet to Tarisa.

Chirakis -> (Welcome, Doctor. Incoming in a minute)

Annisha -> I heard that... something is wrong with my UT. :: taps her ear ::

Tarisa -> ::Shuts off her console after a while and exits the lab.::

Chirakis -> ::steps to the security console:: +COM+ Flight OPS, scramble flight one, set to ready five.

Tarisa -> ::Pauses:: +Lawliet+ Yes?

Nijil tr'Korjata -> :: Gets up out of his office chair and exits onto the main engineering floor. The ambient noise level was quite louder. ::

Chirakis -> Flight OPS> +COM+ Scramble Flight One Interceptors, aye.

mimipavilion -> ::leaves her office and heads out into main sickbay. How we doing Dacia.

Lawliet -> +Tarisa+ Can you come up to the CnC please. We need your help with something.

Kallah Ramson -> +Nijil+ SubCommander, I have a project for you.

Tarisa -> +Lawliet+ Understood. ::Heads for the TL.::

Dacia Sandero -> Doing good. Some minor illnesses and accidents, but nothing major.

mimipavilion -> that's good to hear.

Chirakis -> ::turns:: They will scramble to ready five, Captain. On your command.

Alexis McFarland -> No, maybe not. What would you do with me after you tripped my legs from under me? ::follows along with her noisy flip-flops as she walks along::

Fletcher Jackson -> ::now you're talking::

Annisha -> Pin you to the ground I guess. Does not sound like soccer at all.

Lawliet -> ::begins rotating the sensor modulation::

Cdr Wyatt Cayne -> :: Visiting various shops ::

Alexis McFarland -> Sounds like wrestling to me.

Tarisa -> ::Takes the TL up and exits at the CnC. Her eyes are wide as she glances around. It's not often she is up here. Her tail whips about frantically.::

Alexis McFarland -> I'm not a good wrestler.

Chirakis -> (Schawnsee, can you receive PMs?)

Schawnsee -> ((yes))

Lawliet -> ::waves Tarisa over::

Annisha -> I've been taking classes with the Klingon cook that sold me the Targ..

Tarisa -> ::Walks over to Lawliet.:: Yes, Sir?

Alexis McFarland -> Wrestling classes? I guess it wouldn't surprise me if Klingons wrestled.

Scott Coleridge -> ::accesses the defence grid sensor link and instructs grids in proximity to the ship to triangulate and begin directing phase-shifted sensor pulses::

Nijil tr'Korjata -> :: Observing others' work ::

Annisha -> A lot of stabbing, large blades...

mimipavilion -> ::strolls through the sickbay::

Annisha -> Most of what he's doing looks like slow dancing and even slower breathing... :: exhales and inhales ::

Kallah Ramson -> ::repeats com:: +Nijil+Subcommander, respond.

Lawliet -> ::nods to Coleridge:: Please assist Coleridge with the defence grid. We're trying to establish a reflector pulse and I'm exploring other options.

Nijil tr'Korjata -> +Ramson+ My pardon, go ahead.

Alexis McFarland -> Ooh, stabby. Maybe it is a Klingon slow dance, and he's trying to teach you some moves.

Tarisa -> A reflector pulse? ::Looks between Lawliet and Scott.::

Fletcher Jackson -> ::handing the DG over to Coleridge ,keeping his hands off, he shifts to tactical and flight ops::

Annisha -> Not those kind of moves :: giggles :: The kind to defeat your enemy.

Kallah Ramson -> +Nijil+ I need you to isolate a computer core and create a false comm system. I want to test to see where this alien computer core we have will try and contact.

Lawliet -> Yes. He the sensor array needs to be tuned to the necessary frequency to the defence grid.

Alexis McFarland -> That still counts as 'moves'. It wouldn't take much to defeat me, especially in these flip-flops.

Nijil tr'Korjata -> +Ramson+ Sir? You want an isolated core from the rest of the station. I am unaware of a foreign processing system.

Kallah Ramson -> ::clarifying:: I want to test to see where the alien computer core will try to make contact.

Lawliet -> *The sensor array

Annisha -> Oh, I could teach you, or you could come to the restaurant.

Schawnsee -> @::heading back to the Aegis after completing her task::

Tarisa -> ::Nods, stepping over to Scott, looking at what he is doing.:: What are we trying to detect?

Alexis McFarland -> If it doesn't clash with my soccer practise or homework. But, I took karate once when I was a kid, but I was never really good at fighting.

Kallah Ramson -> +Nijil+ Coleridge and Timir have been working on alien core which has already once tried to manipulate local systems.

Scott Coleridge -> ::Tarisa:: We want to get better scans on the approaching alien vessel. ::points at the current readings:: Their shields are scattering our ordinary scans.

Lawliet -> ::tweaks the modulation slightly::

Annisha -> :: Pulls out a weapon :: See, he even carved this for me.

Alexis McFarland -> Oooh, pretty!

Chirakis -> ::checks her console:: Interceptors are standing by, Captain.

Tarisa -> I see. ::Starts entering the sensor frequencies.::

Alexis McFarland -> Very intricate.

Annisha -> I'm not sure I could hurt anyone with this though.

Schawnsee -> @:: approaching Aegis sensor range::

Scott Coleridge -> But the ship passes among the grid platforms, we can use them like a system of satellites around a planet—bounce the same scanning signal off the alien ship at different modulations and from different directions.

Annisha -> :: stabs in the air ::

Scott Coleridge -> Their shields can modulate against a single pulse, but they won't be able to modulate against the combined interference of these pulses.

Alexis McFarland -> Ah, I hope you won't ever have to.

Annisha -> :: give her the weapon :: Come at me... bro...

Fletcher Jackson -> ::accessing the sensor array for a close-in on the vessel, if possible::

Kallah Ramson -> ::ops:: Send instructions for the approaching craft to slow and adjust approach vector to pass our location one light year away.

Alexis McFarland -> ::Looks at the weapon:: Me?

Nijil tr'Korjata -> :: Going to a console and taking a core off the grid ::

Schawnsee -> @Ill be glad to get home.

Jylliene -> ::nods:: Yes ma'am.

Jylliene -> ::sends the instructions::

Nijil tr'Korjata -> +Ramson+ The processing core is set up... Processor Seven Alpha.

Annisha -> I don't see any other friends...

Kallah Ramson -> ACTION: Incoming remaining on current course.

Jylliene -> ::continues monitoring the incoming vector, looking for adjustments, whether or not they reply::

Chirakis -> ::sends instructions for a ready-ten, Peacekeepers::

Alexis McFarland -> ::awkwardly holds the weapon and feebly charges at Annisha:: ::mono-tone:: Grr.

Jylliene -> No adjustment yet, Captain.

Fletcher Jackson -> ::watching incoming::

Kallah Ramson -> ::Chirakis:: Launch interceptors.

Jylliene -> ::has display also showing ETA::

Lawliet -> ::keeps his eyes on the tactical screen and his station::

Annisha -> :: Dodges ::

Chirakis -> ::nod:: +Flight OPS+ Launch Interceptors.

Schawnsee -> @+Ageis+ Schawnsee to Ageis. ;:as also entering Sensor range::

Chirakis -> Action> On the viewscreen, Interceptors shoot out of the bay.

Annisha -> :: Waits until Alexis stabs ahead and proceeds to pull her forward ::

Kallah Ramson -> ACTION: Grid sensors detect Aegis' comm signal reflected off incoming's shields.

Chirakis -> Peacekeepers scrambling, two flights, Captain.

Jylliene -> +Schawnsee+ Aegis here, Schawnsee. Sending an adjusted trajectory for your approach.

Alexis McFarland -> Ahh. ::tries to roundhouse kick at Annisha but her flip-flop flies off::

Schawnsee -> @I hope they are home

Lawliet -> ::keeps making adjustments::

Annisha -> :: laughs at the flip flop flying in the air, but it level her vulnerable and Alexis got a stab in :: Oooh.

Schawnsee -> @Yay They are Home+Ageis+ Affirmative awaiting instructions.

Alexis McFarland -> Yay.

Jylliene -> ::sends instructions::

Kallah Ramson -> +Nijil+ Make sure it looks like our normal comm and computer system. Feed in some actual data.

Annisha -> :: Green blood comes from her shoulder ::

Alexis McFarland -> Uh oh. Sorry Annisha!

Nijil tr'Korjata -> +Ramson+ Right.. doing so now.

Annisha -> Ot

Jylliene -> +Schawnsee+ Be advised, we have a possible hostile approaching. Don't waste any time coming in.

Tarisa -> ::Finishes entering the frequencies, watches the others work.::

Annisha -> It's alright.. it's painful.. I better head to sickbay..

Annisha -> :: She feels lightheaded ::

Annisha -> Let's go.. how far?

Alexis McFarland -> Let`s go.. ::runs over to find her flip flop and takes her to sickbay:: A few decks up.

Schawnsee -> @:: changes course as instructed:: +Ageis+ On our Way.

Annisha -> :: leans against Alexis ::

Scott Coleridge -> I don't think they are receiving our communications, Captain.

Alexis McFarland -> ::holds Annisha and takes her towards the sickbay::

Chirakis -> Captain. ::steps closer:: Suggest sending a message in binary.

Nijil tr'Korjata -> +Ramson+ You are good to go.

Alexis McFarland -> I can send a telepathic message to Dacia. Maybe she can come down here.

Kallah Ramson -> ::Scott:: Have they blinded themselves with their own shields?

Cdr Wyatt Cayne -> :: Looks at the comm traffic on his padd ::

Schawnsee -> @ :: moves to coarse indicated :: I hope they remember to open the doors

Annisha -> This must have been what it felt like for you.

Annisha -> :: Continues on their way to sickbay ::

Chirakis -> Shuttle Bay Chief> ::has the doors open, awaiting Schawnsee::

Kallah Ramson -> +Nijil+ Alright. "Leak" a connection to the isolated system to the science lab and see what the alien core does.

Annisha -> They say the path to sickbay is paved in green.

Alexis McFarland -> I never got hurt that much...I sprained my ankle once but that`s about it.

Alexis McFarland -> ::sends the message to Dacia::

Alexis McFarland -> I thought it was paved by tile.

Jylliene -> (We are programmed to receive, Schawnsee)

Nijil tr'Korjata -> +Ramson+ Donig so now. ::

Annisha -> :: After some moments, they enter sickbay ::

Scott Coleridge -> ::Ramson:: It might not be intentional. Maybe they don't realize we communicate this way.

Dacia Sandero -> ::Receives a message from Alexis:: Hm. ::notes the two of them enter:: Got your message, Lexxy. This way... ::gestures to the childrens’ ward::

Scott Coleridge -> Or maybe they don't want communication.

Schawnsee -> @:: getting closer::+Aegis+ Schawnsee to Aegis...We are on final approach if we are clear to land.

Kallah Ramson -> ACTION: Rotating sensor scans showing a solid shield which only phases once every 3 minutes. Briefly an image of the ship under begins to form.

Chirakis -> Interceptors within range.

Annisha -> I'm covered in green...see?

Jylliene -> +Schawnsee+ Come on home.

Nijil tr'Korjata -> :: Gets a message Annisha is bleeding and in sickbay ::

Scott Coleridge -> ::whistles as he sees the incoming data:: That is impressive.

Lawliet -> I have something. ::double checking the sensor logs::

Kallah Ramson -> Core>::begins playing with the new access....though still low power, working through the system rather quickly::

Dacia Sandero -> I See. ::Scans Annisha`s shoulder:: Should be careful when play-fighting but I suppose kids will be kids:: Good news, is that the wound is fairly minor.

Nijil tr'Korjata -> +Jy+ Jy, Annisha is in sickbay again, trying to break my record.

Schawnsee -> @:: guides Nigils craft back into the Landing pad:: HOME at last.

Annisha -> :: Looks at Alexis :: Oh, you are bleeding green too... wait, that's mine.

Chirakis -> Peacemakers are hot.

Dacia Sandero -> ::picks up the dermal regenerator and closes up her wound:: HOld still, please. It won't take long.

mimipavilion -> ::hears Dacia talking to Annisha and Alexis:: Oy vey.

Nijil tr'Korjata -> :: Gets another message the Nei'rrh has returned... time to wash it, polish it, baby it...

Lawliet -> Phase Shielding?

Dacia Sandero -> Annisha had a cut to her shoulder. I think the two of them were play fighting together.

Chirakis -> ::steps back to her console::

Dacia Sandero -> It was a fairly minor cut which I'm just about finished closing up.

Jylliene -> ::considers how well Nijil and Annisha are for each other, given their mirroring of each other's sickbay frequency::

Kallah Ramson -> Have interceptors match incoming's course. Keep hailing them.

Schawnsee -> :: Lands with no problem::

mimipavilion -> Not holding my breath on that one.

Chirakis -> Mr. Jackson ::nods::

Jylliene -> Still hailing, Captain. Still no course adjustment.

Alexis McFarland -> ::Hugging Annisha, sorry she`s hurt her::

Scott Coleridge -> These shields must use … well, terawatts of power.

Nijil tr'Korjata -> :: Steps over to the holo-comm :: Computer, connect me with sickbay...

Kallah Ramson -> Core>::looking around the available data, takes a look at local systems and comm systems::

Nijil tr'Korjata -> :: A hologram version of Nijil appears in sickbay ::

Kallah Ramson -> ::Scott:: Would our weapons even dent them?

Scott Coleridge -> I mean, Aegis might be able to sustain something like this for a few hours. But a starship? Matter-antimatter reactions can’t give it that juice.

Fletcher Jackson -> Yes, ma'am. +Flight OPS+ Interceptors to match incoming unknown's course.

Dacia Sandero -> +Nijil+ Sickbay here. Hey Holographic Nijil, we're just finishing fixing up your daughter.

Nijil tr'Korjata -> Oh, it works.. :: looks around ::

Chirakis -> Flight OPS> +TAC+ Copy.

Scott Coleridge -> ::Ramson:: Maybe. Probably? But if they have the power to generate those shields, what kind of heat are they packing?

Nijil tr'Korjata -> This comm system is still being testing... let me see. :: flicker ::

Lawliet -> ::sets the sensors for a intense burst in one minute::

Tarisa -> What about singularity power?

Alexis McFarland -> Ooh, Emergency Nijil Hologram?

Fletcher Jackson -> ::the holographic display boots up, showing the Interceptors shadowing the incoming::

Jylliene -> Possible they're sinking everything into shields and aren't necessarily very heavily armed. Enough for one good burst to keep up appearances, perhaps.

Chirakis -> (heh)

Lawliet -> ::activates sensor burst::

Nijil tr'Korjata -> :: Smiles :: Right, of a sort.. we have an EME program too.

Scott Coleridge -> ::shakes his head:: A singularity doesn’t generate enough power.

Schawnsee -> +Jylliene+ home safe and sound. Please inform the captain mission completed. Any other orders before returning to medical?

Kallah Ramson -> I think with those shields they could simply fly through the station as a battering ram.

Annisha -> Daddy... :: looking sad ::

Nijil tr'Korjata -> :: Looks at the green knife :: What's this? :: Picks it up ::

Jylliene -> ::to Ramson:: The Nei'rrh is home. Any command for Dr Schawnsee?

Fletcher Jackson -> ::poised to engage the defense grid::

Chirakis -> (last words)

Kallah Ramson -> Core>::picks up sensor data of incoming alien ship:: ::begins sending....HELP HELP HELP INCOMING HOSTILE!::

Scott Coleridge -> Could be a chain of singularities, I suppose, being detonated?

Nijil tr'Korjata -> There are far worse things in life Annisha, but actions have consequences.. See you when I get home.

Dacia Sandero -> I see, and like the EMH Mark I, you chose to use your own image for version 1.0. Well, Annisha had a small cut to her shoulder but the wound wasn't deep. I've closed the wound, but I advise she takes it easy on her shoulder for the next few days.

Jylliene -> Scaring hostiles off before they even engage may be their focus.

Kallah Ramson -> ACTION: Sensor pulse picks up an image of the incoming craft from under the shields.

Scott Coleridge -> Or some kind of zero-point energy effect?

Fletcher Jackson -> Defense grid is engaging.

Lawliet -> I have an image.

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

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

Chirakis -> 8/28/15

Chirakis -> Thank you.

Chirakis -> Captain, TBS?

Kallah Ramson -> For now let's go with 15 minutes.

Chirakis -> 15 minutes it is. Comments for the crew?
