[Chirakis 1]

=/\= Aegis Mission Brief 6/17/16=/\=

11 February 2388

TBS was 12 hours.

The time is 2000 hours (8:00 pm) Aegis Local.

Aegean's powerful sensors are penetrating the station, looking for the An-Ward delegates.

USS Byron has been detected en route to Aegis. She is not in stealth mode.

Nei'rrh has repaired the propulsion system, but not communications.

At sim begin, Nei'rrh is in pursuit of Byron. Byron has a 13 hour head start.

Chirakis -> Any questions?

Jylliene -> One more.

Chirakis -> Please. ::nods to Jyl:::

Jylliene -> The Byron is how far out from Aegis, then? About 12 hours?

Chirakis -> Approximately 36 hours at warp 8. Since we do not know the speed of the Byron, let's use warp 8...

Chirakis -> Which would make it 23 hours away.

Jylliene -> OK.

Kallah Ramson -> ::nods to Chirakis::

Chirakis -> Any more?

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

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

Chirakis -> ::having made her rounds to check with the duty officer in security, she enters the lift::: C&C.

Kallah Ramson -> ::probably conspiring with Jorahl somewhere...that always makes a good excuse for an absence::

Jylliene -> ::in quarters, finishing dinner.::

Chirakis -> ::the lift stops and she exits, pausing for threat assessment:::

mimipavilion -> ::in her quarters, going over messages that she's missed::

Chirakis -> ::she steps down to the main area and nods to the OIC, who gives her the latest update.

Scott Coleridge -> ::has finished up on Aegean and heads for security to confer with Cayne::

Nijil tr'Korjata -> $ :: Hits something in the linkage :: +Tarisa+ Try it now.

Nijil tr'Korjata -> $ :: The linkage started to glow and pulse green as the power flowed from the AQS to the warp coils ::

Chirakis -> ::the OIC hands her a PADD, which she signs after a quick browse through::

Jylliene -> ::glances at Annisha:: You're quiet tonight. (assuming she's here)

Chirakis -> ::Hands it back:: I have the CON.

Annisha -> Our cat friend is gone..

Chirakis -> OIC> Aye, Captain. You have the CON.

Annisha -> Can't get a crisis here to stop her from leaving

Jylliene -> ::chuckles::

Alexis McFarland -> ::in her quarters watching some medieval drama with Dacia::

Jylliene -> Parents and guardians typically feel much more secure having their children at home in these situations.

Scott Coleridge -> ::enters security and looks for Cayne::

Nijil tr'Korjata -> $ +Tarisa+ Do we have warp?... [Tarisa] +Nijil+ It is!

Jylliene -> Though I imagine you'd have happily had a never-ending sleepover with them.

Chirakis -> ::and she begins her usual stride around CnC before logging on to her console to pull up reports:::

Jylliene -> ::smiles::

Nijil tr'Korjata -> $ +Tarisa+ Then get us out of this nebula, then pursue. :: Bonks his head as he leaves the engine room :: Oof!

Annisha -> Well, we gave the new kid a bath.

Chirakis -> ::there is still no sign of Nei'rrh, which is disturbing at a very high level, considering that the previous message has Byron 23 hours from Aegis:::

Jylliene -> ::ponders that::

Alexis McFarland -> I hope Miana's feeling better

Cdr Wyatt Cayne -> :: Looking over the new scans of the station... there are a lot of people on board ::

Chirakis -> ::approaches Ramson's door::: *Chime*

Jylliene -> I... imagine that was useful. She needed one?

mimipavilion -> ::has a lot of junk messages::

Scott Coleridge -> ::approaches Cayne:: Commander.

Chirakis -> ;:paging through the rest of the messages:::

Nijil tr'Korjata -> $ :: Nijil gets up to the bridge where Tarisa is at helm and Lawliet at OPS ::

Kallah Ramson -> ::exits lift onto the CnC::

Nijil tr'Korjata -> $ Tarisa: Five minutes until the nebula perimeter.

Scott Coleridge -> I trust you've reviewed the Aegean scans now.

Chirakis -> ::turns at the sound of the lift:: Captain. ::respectful nod::

Nijil tr'Korjata -> $ Lawliet: Any luck with the communications?

Kallah Ramson -> ::returns the nod::

mimipavilion -> Loxil> Anything from our husband?

Chirakis -> ::on approach:: Disturbing news, Captain.

Scott Coleridge -> Interesting assortment of data, particularly those few hotspots where it looks like we have some people trying to conceal themselves. Nothing obviously related to our targets. What are your thoughts?

Nijil tr'Korjata -> $ Nijil: Na.. and there likely won't be unless we are in very close range.

mimipavilion -> ::looks at Loxil:: nothing

Chirakis -> ::pulls up the tactical display with her remote::

Dacia Sandero -> I'm sure she is. Enough time passed for the medicine to take effect.

Kallah Ramson -> As usual. What do you have?

Chirakis -> Joint Task Force Aegis is tracking Byron :::points to the pinpoint on the screen:::

Cdr Wyatt Cayne -> :: Many of the dots representing people were quite close together, which puzzled Cayne for a moment ::'

Chirakis -> They are 13 hours out of An-Ward at warp 8, traveling toward us without stealth mode...

Chirakis -> There is no sign of Nei'rrh.

mimipavilion -> Loxil> Thought he would have sent something by now.

Chirakis -> The defense grid is on hot standby.

Chirakis -> But I believe this to be beyond curious.

Kallah Ramson -> No message from Nei'rrh?

mimipavilion -> I know. I'm a little worried too.

Chirakis -> No, Captain. None.

Nijil tr'Korjata -> $ Tarisa: I just noticed something. The cloak is on, did we want it on?

Jylliene -> Oh - would you like a cookie? ::gets plate::

Chirakis -> Their last message was that they had found the Byron,.

Chirakis -> Beyond that, nothing.

Annisha -> Would I? :: jumps up and down ::

mimipavilion -> Loxil>::nods::

Kallah Ramson -> Was Byron within range of the task force for a good scan?

Jylliene -> ::grins:: Thought you might. ::offers the plate::

Alexis McFarland -> ::eating some potato chips::

Nijil tr'Korjata -> $ :: Tries to shift power from the cloak... no response ::

Chirakis -> They are sending a ship to intercept, but it is not yet close enough for a good scan.

Nijil tr'Korjata -> $ Elements!

Chirakis -> In the meantime, Missouri is headed toward Aegis.

Nijil tr'Korjata -> $ :: Both Tarisa and Lawliet look at him ::

Scott Coleridge -> ::Cayne:: In your opinion, do you think it's worth sending teams to investigate the areas Aegean flagged?

Nijil tr'Korjata -> $ I know what's going on, in getting the engines working I had to route power through the cloak. The only way to turn of the cloak is to drop out of warp

Kallah Ramson -> Prepare a flight of fighters to intercept.

Chirakis -> Yes, Captain. ::nods to TAC to follow through with the order::

Jylliene -> ::has a cookie herself, with a cup of tea::

Cdr Wyatt Cayne -> :: Turns beet red, figures out what those close dots meant ::

Annisha -> :: Goes over to have a cookie, sits with Jyjy ::

Alexis McFarland -> ::sitting up against Dacia, engrossed in the plot::

Kallah Ramson -> Bring up all access codes for Byron.

Jylliene -> So, tell me about your new friend. You and Lexi got on well with her?

Kallah Ramson -> ::steps over towards Ops::

Nijil tr'Korjata -> $ :: Little Action: The Nei'rrh emerges from the nebula, the red-orange view replaced by what looks like a random starfield ::

Nijil tr'Korjata -> $ Alright :: sits :: Scan for the Byron, plot an intercept course.

Chirakis -> :::working her console::

Chirakis -> Captain, ::as she works:: Byron's access codes are... not available.

Scott Coleridge -> ::coughs:: Commander Cayne?

Nijil tr'Korjata -> $ Tarisa: I have it, traveling on 34 mark 72, warp 8, destination... Aegis :: looks at Nijil ::

Chirakis -> However, USS Warren is the same configuration, though her access codes will also be secure.

Cdr Wyatt Cayne -> I, er Yes Commander?

Nijil tr'Korjata -> $ Plot course to intercept, warp 9.

Scott Coleridge -> The scans, Cayne. From Aegean. Anything useful? Should we send teams to investigate the suspicious areas?

Nijil tr'Korjata -> $ Tarisa: Aye. :: The Nei'rrh halls butt ::

Annisha -> :: Lays against Jyjy ::

Jylliene -> So it sounds like you got along well with your new friend?

Kallah Ramson -> Reason?

Alexis McFarland -> ::hugs her pug::

Cdr Wyatt Cayne -> There are a lot of people on the station.. We are dividing them up my species.

Chirakis -> They are highly classified stealth destroyers, Captain.

Cdr Wyatt Cayne -> :: Pulls up a master display :: Here are the areas we can't scans... mostly around power sources ::

Chirakis -> Perhaps the Missouri?

Cdr Wyatt Cayne -> Here are you and I. :: Waves, and a second later the figure waves in kind ::

Kallah Ramson -> So they left us with no means of retaking them if compromised. Brilliant.

Chirakis -> Indeed.

Cdr Wyatt Cayne -> I am going to send teams to look in these areas.. it means a fair amount of utility access.

Scott Coleridge -> All right.

Kallah Ramson -> Put their trajectories on screen.

Chirakis -> And I must admit, they are even outside my grasp.

Annisha -> :: Eats her cookie while resting against Jyjy ::

Jylliene -> ::snuggles against Annisha:: Hopefully we'll be back to usual in another day or so. ::thinking, "whatever that means for Aegis"::

Chirakis -> Trajectories are onscreen.

Kallah Ramson -> ::considering::

Scott Coleridge -> If you need to use Aegean again, let me know. Otherwise, carry on and keep me and Captain Chirakis apprised.

Alexis McFarland -> ::pets Chester's furry head::

Cdr Wyatt Cayne -> :: Watches a late night game of Dabo, likely under the radar ::

Annisha -> The are snugglers too..

mimipavilion -> ::gets up and heads into the kitchen to get something to eat::

Jylliene -> ::chuckles::

mimipavilion -> Loxil> Can I make you something Mimi?

Kallah Ramson -> Make sure the fighters know where best to hit the Byron to take it out of warp. Until contact is made she is not to enter Aegis local region.

Jylliene -> Expressions of affection.

Chirakis -> Informing the fighters. ::contacts Flight OPS:::

mimipavilion -> ::shakes her head::No thanks Loxil. Go do what you need to do.

Chirakis -> ::notes the trajectory has not changed, nor has the speed:: They cannot possibly endure warp 8 for more than a few more hours, Captain.

mimipavilion -> Loxil>::nods::

Scott Coleridge -> I need to return to the CnC and consult with the Captains about our other crises.

Nijil tr'Korjata -> $ How long Tarisa, until we catch up?

Chirakis -> Even with the most advanced technology, warp 8 for long periods of time is wearing on systems.

Scott Coleridge -> ::shakes his head, adds, more to himself than to Cayne:: Can't be having just one crisis at a time, can we.

Nijil tr'Korjata -> $ Tarisa: At this speed, 20 hours.

Cdr Wyatt Cayne -> There are crises all over Commander.

Annisha -> They are trying to beat me out of sleep.

Cptn d'Ka -> @ ::enters Missouri's bridge:: Commander Lei'ri, report.

Jylliene -> ::grins:: Well, you'll sleep a bit better tonight, then, hopefully.

Scott Coleridge -> ::Cayne:: Good luck.

Nijil tr'Korjata -> $ Great.. time for a sonic shower, if that works. Tarisa, you have the conn. :: turns and goes to the back ::

Scott Coleridge -> ::turns to go::

Cptn d'Ka -> @ ::takes the command chair while Lei'ri vacates::: Lei'ri> Byron is still on course, Captain.

Kallah Ramson -> What advantage is there for the Byron to be returning to us but likely blow up before getting here.

Annisha -> I think MIana tried to clean me once, but I think she was asleep.

Jylliene -> ::chuckles::

mimipavilion -> ::makes a sandwich and starts eating it::

Chirakis -> None, I would think. And what advantage would they have if they approach out of stealth mode unless they are in distress?

Scott Coleridge -> ::enters a TL:: CnC, please.

Jylliene -> It sounds like you've all made the most of your time.

Alexis McFarland -> I wonder what Annisha's watching now. I don't think she's big into historical Earth dramas.

Cptn d'Ka -> @ ::as he ponders, his face turns grim:: It makes no sense, 'Ri.

Annisha -> Oh, I've been practicing like father said.

Jylliene -> Excellent! ::pause:: Practicing what?

Annisha -> :: Gets up to get her tiny guitar ::

Jylliene -> ::somewhat concerned at the possibilities::

Annisha -> :: Comes back with her uuk ::

Jylliene -> ::sees the guitar, relaxes::

Scott Coleridge -> ::enters CnC::

Jylliene -> Ahhh. Wonderful ::smiles::

Chirakis -> ::turns:: Commander.

Kallah Ramson -> ::glances over as Scott enters::

Annisha -> I tried a lot of music, but since this is an Earth instrument Earth songs seem to do well.

Scott Coleridge -> Oh, Captain Ramson. I see you're back.

Jylliene -> ::nods:: Makes sense.

Scott Coleridge -> ::approaches them:: Anything new with the Byron. Or word from the Nei'rrh?

Kallah Ramson -> Neither it seems.

Annisha -> :: Starts playing her chords and singing :: "Well I know, I miss more than hit... "

Jylliene -> ::listens::

Kallah Ramson -> Anything new on your investigations?

Nijil tr'Korjata -> Byron> +Aegis Incoming Comm+

Annisha -> "With a face that was launched to sink..."

Cptn d'Ka -> @ Mr. Tan, secure contact with Captain Mitchell. ::his hand strokes his chin in thought::

Jylliene -> OPS officer> Captain - Incoming from the Byron.

Cptn d'Ka -> @ Tan> Aye, Captain. Initiating contact.

Kallah Ramson -> ::turns sharply:: Let's hear it.

Chirakis -> ::ready to get a fix on the transmission:::

Jylliene -> OPS officer>::opens channel::

Cptn d'Ka -> @ Tan> No response, Captain.

Nijil tr'Korjata -> Byron> Captain Mitchell +Aegis+ This is Captain Mitchell of the USS Byron, are you receiving this?

Cptn d'Ka -> @ ::looks to Lei'ri, his expression grim:: Hail again, Mr. Tan.

Kallah Ramson -> +Byron+ We are receiving.

Cptn d'Ka -> @ Tan> Aye, Captain.

Nijil tr'Korjata -> Byron> +Aegis+ If you are we are having trouble, oh. :: speaks to someone else on the bridge :: Raise the gain on the signal.

Jylliene -> OPS officer> ::glances at Ramson::

Cptn d'Ka -> @ Tan> No response, Captain. No connection at all.

Kallah Ramson -> +Byron+ Byron, confirm you are receiving us.

Nijil tr'Korjata -> Byron> +Aegis+ Sorry for the communication blackout. We have sustained damage in the nebula, unknown ships attacked us. We are just getting back on our feet.

Scott Coleridge -> ::slips into his seat and taps into the systems of the things::

Cptn d'Ka -> @ Commander Lei'ri, flank speed to Aegis.

Kallah Ramson -> +Byron+ Can you identify your attackers?

Nijil tr'Korjata -> Byron> +Aegis+ We hear you. Nice to hear a friendly voice.

mimipavilion -> ::after eating her sandwich, she goes back to her desk::

Cptn d'Ka -> @ Lei'ri> ::nods to Doland:: Flank speed. Direct vector.

Kallah Ramson -> +Byron+ What of the rescue ships we sent to aid you?

Nijil tr'Korjata -> Byron> +Aegis+ Well, small agile craft.. runs rings around us at impulse. Sat there in waiting for us.

Jylliene -> ::listening to Annisha singing and playing, feeling the day's stress fade::

Chirakis -> ::she gets a ping on the TAC console:::

Annisha -> "Hurry back to me, my wild cailín It's been the worst day since yesterday"

Nijil tr'Korjata -> Byron> +Aegis+ Rescue ships? We did not see any, though we did identify debris we believe of Romulan origin, but we could not remain in the nebula.

Chirakis -> ::her jaw sets::

Nijil tr'Korjata -> Byron> +Aegis+ How many ships did you send for us? :: Bridge noise from the Byron could be heard in the background ::

Chirakis -> ::steps to Coleridge, since the captain is busy, and whispers:: Missouri is en route.

Kallah Ramson -> +Byron+ Do you have casualties?

Nijil tr'Korjata -> Byron> +Aegis+ You know, that's the only good thing from this entire patrol. Relatively minor and even one birth.

Cptn d'Ka -> @ ::stands, taking his customary pose when concentrating::

Scott Coleridge -> ::chirakis:: That's a relief. Is it just me or is this captain a little too chipper for someone who has apparently had a close call

Nijil tr'Korjata -> Byron> Add one to the manifest. The ship has sustained damage to nearly every system.

Cptn d'Ka -> @ ::quiet whisper:: There are no lifeforms aboard, 'Ri.

Nijil tr'Korjata -> Byron> +Aegis+ And we are running out of Starfleet Duct Tape.

Cptn d'Ka -> @ Lei'ri> ::studying the captain's expression::

Cptn d'Ka -> @ I know Captain Mitchell. If he is there, he is not detectable. This is beyond strange.

Annisha -> It's a bit of a sad song, but I like it.

Kallah Ramson -> +Byron+ Prepare to alter course. We have a ship in your area who will see to your damages. Meet at the coordinates we are about to send you then prepare for further orders.

Jylliene -> I like it too. And I think the style suits you well.

Kallah Ramson -> ::reaches over and mutes the comm::

Nijil tr'Korjata -> Byron> +Aegis+ Understood.

mimipavilion -> ::sighs, wondering where her husband could be::

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

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

Chirakis -> 6/17/16

Chirakis -> Thank you.

Chirakis -> Well played.

Chirakis -> Captain, TBS?

Kallah Ramson -> Suggestions on tBS?

Chirakis -> Nijil?

Nijil tr'Korjata -> At the point the Missouri gets in visual range of the Byron

Chirakis -> That would be another 10 hours?

Nijil tr'Korjata -> Sounds about right

Kallah Ramson -> Sounds good.

Chirakis -> Questions or comments from anyone?

Kallah Ramson -> None.

Nijil tr'Korjata -> Was fun

Chirakis -> Indeed.

Chirakis -> Very well, crew *dismiss*
