Sentinel 9/18

[8:32] [DOIC] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: Star Trek Sentinel Theme

[8:33] [DOIC] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: The Credits play over the Sentinel and her escorting the dozen Merchant Vessels as they near the Azure Nebula

[8:34] [DOIC] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: The Camera pans over the crew as they go about their duties with the ship at warp as Joy's voice over log begins

[8:34] [DOIC] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Captain's Log: Stardate 93852.17 We Return to Ardana III. With the Relief Task Force 1137 in tow, we are approaching to the system in order to conduct relieve operations. Seems fairly standard, but>

[8:36] [DOIC] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: >we have a secondary objective. Pirate activity is on the rise, and they are being supplied and coordinated by remnant Tal'Shiar. We are tasks with finding a possible intact missing vessel, thought>?

[8:37] [DOIC] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: lost during the seige. The Protector, a Vigilant-class Escort. Our hope is that it is intact with her crew. We are to secure the system and make contact with the Protector. That isn't the worst of it>

[8:38] [DOIC] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: >, however. There may be enemy forces and insurgents still on the surface. This will be a slog. End Log.

[8:38] [DOIC2] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: -loiters pensively in the readyroom, skimming reports.

[8:38] [DOIC1] Tolar@Starboard_Nacelle: *Tolar emerges onto the bridge for the first time since his recent head injury.*

[8:39] [DOIC1] Tolar@Starboard_Nacelle: *He glances around at his fellow officers, then assumes his post at the security console.*

[8:39] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -smiles and nods to Tolar- Welcome back Lieutenant

[8:39] [DOIC1] Tolar@Starboard_Nacelle: "Thank you, Lieutenant." *He nods.*

[8:39] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Varel kept vigilant at her console, relieved to be back in her element but certainly not showing it on her impassive, sharply-featured face.*

[8:40] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon looks back at Tolar, nodding.* Welcome back.

[8:40] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Commander...we are 20 minutes from the perimeter of the nebula.

[8:40] [DOIC1] T'Sirak M'rara C'son@Cute_Girl: *She does a cursory sweep of her sensors.* Captain, thus far the sensors are clear. Nothing abnormal, or threatening to report as of this current time.

[8:41] [DOIC1] T'Sirak M'rara C'son@Cute_Girl: *She shakes her head.* Er....COmmander.

[8:41] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Thank fer da breakin' newz flash.

[8:41] [DOIC1] T'Sirak M'rara C'son@Cute_Girl: You are quite welcome.

[8:42] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: So Alleycat, any scuttlebutt on vwhy vwe vwere deployed on dis vwot an' stuff not on da offical order docet?

[8:42] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -smiles at that- ACCI Feeds are strong and clear...we should expect some communications interference once we arrive in system. Starfleet still has no idea why communications have been so

[8:42] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: Limited with the Ardani since the end of the war

[8:43] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: -steps out onto the bridge, finally-

[8:43] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] I would say given the Admiral's and our own Experience with the Ardani and the fighting right before the war with the Xaiti was a key to her sending us

[8:43] [DOIC3] Alex@Demoncherub: --Alex considers where the best spot to hang his medical degree would be.--

[8:43] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] She was in command of the Andromache in that fight with us

[8:44] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon nods, looking back at Alice.* Seems so long ago now.

[8:44] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -sighs- Not that I recall much about the battle after the invasion began...its still a blank for me

[8:44] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Vreally Jon..seems liek jesterday ta me...

[8:45] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -smirks- Just under two years ago now

[8:45] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Vwhere does da time go.  Speaking of...vwe got an ETA, Jon?

[8:45] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: So much has happened since then. That was probably some of my best piloting in my career, though. I don't know how we managed so many runs between the Andromache and the planet.

[8:45] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: 20 minutes, m'am.

[8:45] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Everything seems like yesterday to me. You humans have a strange perception of time...

[8:46] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -shakes her head- Still no answer from the system or the Protector...if she is still operating there

[8:46] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: and noi clue on vwot cuasing da comms interferance...

[8:46] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Does it seem localized?

[8:47] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -nods- Yes it does Commander....its not the nebula..it cant be

[8:47] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: I want solutions. For now, however, we need to assess the situation on Ardana III.

[8:47] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] Starfleet has been restoring all deep space subspace relays in the area with the Romulans since the war ended

[8:49] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] I recommend a series of 'booster' probes as we approach the system captain...set up like a small network of relay bouys to boost our signal once in system...

[8:49] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Last time vwere visited dhere it vwas a vwar zone..might be best to go in hot.  Battlestations?

[8:49] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Battlestations. Prepare those probes as well.

[8:49] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon looks over to Alice.* Hansel and Gretel...bread crumbs.

[8:50] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Davidson] The system has been isolated and cut off since the initial surprise attack on Starbase 234 that began the Iconian war

[8:50] [DOIC] Shantal@Arnimane: All over Sentinel general quarters red alert sounds.

[8:50] [DOIC] Shantal@Arnimane: All hands battlestations, this is not a drill.  Battlestations.

[8:50] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -smiles and nods to Jon- The old stand bys are classics for a reason

[8:51] [DOIC3] Kessi Davem@Mouse43dz: *Had made her way to sickbay and paused just as she entered, hearing the red alert. She turned on her heel and headed back down the hall for the bridge.*

[8:52] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: The Xiati nearly wiped the Ardani off their own world...I wonder how their recovery has gone.

[8:52] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] Captain a message from the Palmerton...the lead Merchant ship...they are requesting the usual security detail for protection once the initial aid station is set up on the planet's surface

[8:52] [DOIC] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= All hands set fo Iconian intrustion protocols.

[8:52] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Grant it to them and get them moving.

[8:52] [DOIC1] Tolar@Starboard_Nacelle: *Tolar taps the controls to mobilize the security teams and authorize special equipment.*

[8:52] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Have we had any recent tracking of T'ket's forces in the area since the end of the war?

[8:53] [DOIC3] Alex@Demoncherub: --he looks up from his reading at the sound of the red alert. he gets up and head out into the sickbay.--

[8:53] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Davidson] -to Jon= Last reports from the Connersville the lead ship of the taks force stranded in the Ardani system reported heavy Elachi contact as well

[8:53] [DOIC3] Alex@Demoncherub: Iconians? I thought that war was over?

[8:53] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon shakes his head.* Those people have been through enough already.

[8:54] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -nods- Aye Ma'am..the most recent Joint Starfleet Romulan Republic operation forced them out of the area...but it is possible stragglers remain

[8:54] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [ANbari] -reports all ships high security areas now on lockdown and all seucrity personel are at battlestations-

[8:54] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Hmmm. Keep those contermeatures up then. The Elachi like to use thier master's methods when boarding.

[8:55] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: -looks at Joy-  Capn', on a personal note...iffin vwe can, me might investigate da fate of VWerner while vwe are here.

[8:55] [DOIC3] Kessi Davem@Mouse43dz: *took the turbolift up to the bridge. Kessie stepped out and looked to see what was currently going on.*

[8:55] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -nodnods- He has been MIA on Ardana III since the siege began

[8:55] [DOIC3] Alex@Demoncherub: --he looks around the sick bay at his people.-- Alright lets prepare for triage protocols ,and prepare medical teams for rapid response.

[8:56] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon looks sad.*

[8:56] [DOIC1] Kessi Davem@Mouse43dz: *Hurried over to her seat, giving quick nods of greeting to those she passed.*

[8:56] [DOIC3] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [DeSoto] All triage teams deplying to battlestations...preparing stations on every deck

[8:56] [DOIC3] Alex@Demoncherub: --Alex heads over to sotrage to grab some medical kists and make sure they are properly stocked.--

[8:57] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -smiles and nods to kessi- Hello Counselor

[8:57] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: It's... been long enough that there may be nothing left to find. If we get a chance It's authorized.

[8:57] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Varel's fingers flew over the surface of her console, getting their weapons and shields ready for possible battle.*

[8:58] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -smiles and nods to kessi- Hello Counselor

[8:58] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Lets take care of our primary objectives first then look. I suspect we'll be here awhile.

[8:59] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Odd Job] =^= Main Engineering to Commander Shantal

[9:00] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: -nods and then replaies to Oddjob- =^= Vwot ju got fer me Mr Job?

[9:00] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -to Tolar- Sending you the request for aid station deployment requirements by the relief ships Lieutenant

[9:00] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -to Tolar- Sending you the request for aid station deployment requirements by the relief ships Lieutenant

[9:00] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon nods.* Here's hoping it's not the precusor to another invasion.

[9:00] [DOIC1] Kessi Davem@Mouse43dz: *Smiles in return to Walker as she takes a seat.*

[9:00] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Odd Job] Engineering i at battlestations, all ships systems now rigged for nebula operations, shields modified to repel Elachi transporters

[9:01] [DOIC1] T'Sirak M'rara C'son@Cute_Girl: *She squints as it seems her team was having trouble with readying the probes. She puts in a request for Aellas to assist from his area in readying them.*

[9:01] [DOIC1] Tolar@Starboard_Nacelle: *Tolar takes the information from Alice and arranges for teams alpha and bravo to accompany the aid efforts.*

[9:01] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: In this case, Mr. Cameron, unless T'Ket's heralds show up in force, the most we'll get is Tal'Shiar lead pirates and brigands.

[9:02] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= Vrighteous. Steady as she goes dhen.

[9:02] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: The hope then would be that they're not carrying and salvaged iconian weapons. This is a threat we can face.

[9:02] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon nods.* Aye to that, captain.

[9:03] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Varel would also be scanning the space around them, wanting to be ready if anyone tried to sneak up on the ship.*

[9:03] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: I dunno capn'..last time vwe vwere 'ere none of us expected to in a ful invasion..vrather go in expectin; da vworst.

[9:03] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Odd Job] =^= For the record..Harry says..he has a bad feeling about this one Boss

[9:03] [DOIC1] Kessi Davem@Mouse43dz: *Tilts her head as she continues to stare at Alice, squinting a little to get a better look.*

[9:04] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= Tell ESPN..noted and ta carry on.

[9:04] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Well that's why we're at Battlestations.

[9:04] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Odd Jo] =^= Noted...Engineering out -chucles and signs off-

[9:04] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: But just because we're expecting the worst, that doesn't mean we can't hope for the best.

[9:05] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -blinks and slowly looks up from her console and offers Kessi a small smile- Everythign okay Counselor?

[9:06] [DOIC1] T'Sirak M'rara C'son@Cute_Girl: *Paging Aellas. Paging Aellas.*

[9:06] [DOIC4] Aellas@xemion1111: Looking behind him from the large display he crouched down and began typing on the console facing the monitor to see what he was being paged about.

[9:07] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "Captain, I am picking up what could be either Romulan or Tholian sensor echoes from targeting sweeps.  I am not picking up any ships in the vicinity, however."

[9:07] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: I suppose vwe can hold dat fer VWerner to...ma'am.

[9:07] [DOIC1] Kessi Davem@Mouse43dz: *rubbed a hand over her face and got to her feet. She moved over beside Alice, offering a small smile.* Should be okay.. Are you feeling alright?

[9:08] [DOIC1] T'Sirak M'rara C'son@Cute_Girl: *Wants to ask him for assistance in readying the Probes, working in conjunction with her science team.*

[9:08] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: If he's out there and we are able, we can look.

[9:08] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -smiles some a little nervously- Yes and no...hard to say...this is an odd...place for me to return too

[9:08] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Ju vremember much Alleycat?

[9:09] [DOIC4] Aellas@xemion1111: Replies in kind with an acknowledgement of probe-readying.

[9:09] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -looks to Kessi and SHantal- Eveything right...upt to the initial landings...and the siege at the Federation Embassy...then the fighting as the embassy fell....then on board the Necessity...i

[9:10] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: in their sickbay

[9:10] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon blinks.* On board...what?

[9:10] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] weeks after the siege

[9:10] [DOIC3] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: Hey AJ. What's shaking?

[9:10] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Oh.

[9:10] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -to Jon- The Necessity one of the relief ships after you guys stopped the invasion

[9:11] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Dinna sweat it kiddo...vwe got ju an' did our best ta save vwho vwe could.

[9:11] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Sometimes not vrememberin' ain't a bad thing...

[9:12] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -nods- ....we lost so many that day...thw whole of Delta...more than half of the seucirty force....eveyrone at the Embassy but me

[9:12] [DOIC3] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: *leans on AJ's console, sipping his ovaltine*

[9:12] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: I found you...in a field.

[9:12] [DOIC4] Aellas@xemion1111: Standing and moving to the footspace he hopped down from his perch and began to type. "Computer, load hypothetical Aellas-Alpha."

[9:12] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: You didn't remember anything about how you got there.

[9:12] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -shakes her head- No i was brought aboard with a lot of Ardani soliders from the Capitol city

[9:13] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon frowns and shakes his head.*

[9:13] [DOIC3] Alex@Demoncherub: --looks up, somewhat startled.-- Oh hey Victor, I didn't see you there.

[9:13] [DOIC1] Kessi Davem@Mouse43dz: Ahh, I see.

[9:13] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -is on standby with the Deltas in the Armory-

[9:14] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] All right listen up...thus far confidence is low on hostile conact but for now all war time Iconian protoculs are in place

[9:14] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: ETA?

[9:15] [DOIC4] Aellas@xemion1111: "Computer, bring up the Ardani system on the main display; highlight and overlay the distortion."

[9:15] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -cocks a helmeted head to the side- . . .because we're still fighting them, right? The end of the war was all in my head?

[9:15] [DOIC3] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: How's that work? I'm standing right in front of you, ha ha.

[9:15] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] We still have no contact from the Ardani or the system nor the surviving Starfleet ship...so for now we are on stand by

[9:15] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] This world is still considered under siege by command for now...until their lack of contact is explained

[9:15] [DOIC3] Alex@Demoncherub: --glares at Victor.-- Hey some of us have work to do.

[9:16] [DOIC1] Kessi Davem@Mouse43dz: *remained standing near Alice's station, keeping an eye on her.*

[9:16] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [walker] Its just....unsettling is all

[9:16] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -smirks softly to Kessi- Not th ebest of memories to have

[9:16] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: No, i get why we're at ready, but there are literally thousands of reasons or threats that could cuase something like this. Just think we're jumping the gun pointing a finger at Iconians.

[9:17] [DOIC3] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: Ha ha ha.

[9:17] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [S'ress] -nod to this-

[9:17] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Calculating now, captain. *Jon shakes his head.* I swear on my life...we found you on Ardani III.

[9:17] [DOIC3] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: You want a break? *holds up a deck of playing cards*

[9:17] [DOIC3] Alex@Demoncherub: So what did you need anyway?

[9:17] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] I suspect the captain is merely preparing us for the worse case sceanrio

[9:17] [DOIC3] Alex@Demoncherub: You know we are on alert right?

[9:17] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Endel] yeah...usualyl because that is what happens so we are really good at those

[9:17] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Temple] -groans-

[9:18] [DOIC3] Alex@Demoncherub: I have to make sure sickbay is ready for any possible casualties.

[9:18] [DOIC3] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: As far as I know, blackjack while on alert status is not necessarily prohibited.

[9:18] [DOIC3] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: Hmm.

[9:18] [DOIC3] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: I suppose you have a point. *Sips his Ovaltine*

[9:18] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -smirks= If you did Jon, its not like i could remember that if I was not awake silly

[9:18] [DOIC3] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: You need a nurse? I'm handy with a dermal regenerator.

[9:18] [DOIC3] Alex@Demoncherub: --nods-- Yeah but playing blackjack on duty while ignoring your job..yeha that is actually prohibited.

[9:18] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *She kept up the scans, wanting to know the instant any ships, hostile or otherwise, appeared on her radar.*

[9:19] [DOIC4] Aellas@xemion1111: "Replace non-essential sensors and movement systems with enhanced multi-spectral tachyon-based sensor clusters on the probe-class designated by the CSO console... Now, while you do that I shall begin+

[9:19] [DOIC3] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: *chuckles*

[9:19] [DOIC1] Kessi Davem@Mouse43dz: *Gave a half smile.* I imagine not.

[9:19] [DOIC3] Alex@Demoncherub: --nods-- Sure, we may need all the help we can get.

[9:19] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -snaps her fingers and looks away from her PADD- One more thing...we have a Delta MIA on the surface of Aradana III...we will learn of his situation mission permitting or not...is this clear?

[9:19] [DOIC1] Tolar@Starboard_Nacelle: *Tolar runs a scan with the internal sensors, looking for any anomalous readings.*

[9:20] [DOIC3] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: Between you and me, I once accidentally severed a finger and reattached it myself.

[9:20] [DOIC4] Aellas@xemion1111: adjusting the numbers from the macro-attempt to this more refined one... Too bad probes do not have giant deflector dishes, huh?" The question was rhetorical but he continued to type, bringing up code

[9:20] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: The /Iconians/ are not a worst case scenario, lest you forgot, sir.

[9:20] [DOIC1] Tolar@Starboard_Nacelle: *Finding nothing, he vigilantly watches over the readouts in case anything changes.*

[9:22] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] No and that is understood...S'ress you have been brought up to speed see to it both teams -she looks to seband sress- ae reayd for it ..should it appear on Arana III...i am concerned about

[9:22] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: this local interference

[9:22] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "I am detecting more scan echoes, it would appear that the other ship was conducting their own search."

[9:22] [DOIC3] Alex@Demoncherub: --give Victor a horrified look-- Why man? Why?

[9:22] [DOIC3] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: Well, I couldn't just leave it severed.

[9:23] [DOIC1] Kessi Davem@Mouse43dz: *glanced off to her left for a moment, seeming a little distracted.*

[9:23] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: Not so much thinking locals will pose much of a problem. Likely Winterhagen has been sipping drinks for some time. He's had a long enough vacation, I think.

[9:23] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: Probably won't be too thrilled that Connelly took his spot, either.

[9:23] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Ten minutes to the Ardana system, commander.

[9:23] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: (( sigh

[9:24] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Connelly] -snorts- I know the man...he wil be glad to have a drinkin partner that 'understands'

[9:24] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: (( Did you DC? ))

[9:24] [DOIC3] Alex@Demoncherub: you know you could have gone to sick bay right? Or what were you stranded on an alien world alone?

[9:24] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: Wasn't aware you enjoyed that kind of company, Connelly.

[9:25] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: -grimaces a bit-  Alleycat..see to it Slick it brought up ta speed on da players in dis sector an' past conflict. Maybe many down dhere dinna know da vwar is over..

[9:25] [DOIC3] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: I was embarassed. I shouldn't have run that program without safeties.

[9:25] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Cnnelly] Just cuz we have a beer together Ensign dont mean we are gonna be pickin out curtains together...-points a finger immediately at Carol to silence the man-

[9:25] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Looks at Joy...Susan did order us..so might as vwell make sure he can be juseful if someone needs explainin' peacefully how it is all over and ta make peace..

[9:26] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] Aye Ma'am...-sends Vic down the files on the Ardani and the last know intel on their world and system-

[9:26] [DOIC3] Alex@Demoncherub: Well you are lucky the finger even still functions properly.

[9:26] [DOIC3] Alex@Demoncherub: assuming it still does.

[9:27] [DOIC3] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: Why don't you ask my ex-wife? *hears his PADD beep*

[9:27] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: You were the one with the.. "understanding". If you didn't mean that perhaps you'd like to explain this "understanding"? Otherwise I can have Dupree listen and give you his advice.

[9:27] [DOIC3] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: *scrolls through the data on his PADD* Interesting.

[9:28] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Connelly] -solences the medic with a glare- The knowin from one chief to another about dealing with the lieks of the rest of you

[9:28] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Alleycat..make sure ju keep broadcasting opens hails to the planet an' any detected vwessels...if vwe got an' additional unknown..let's put dhem on our tactical display and vwatched close.

[9:29] [DOIC3] Alex@Demoncherub: --looks confused-- Ask your ex-wife about your finger?

[9:29] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: (( yes

[9:29] [DOIC3] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: *chuckles softly* Nevermind, AJ.

[9:29] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -nods- We should be in scanning range of the system now Commander...so far Varel has no unexpecred guests for us

[9:29] [DOIC3] Alex@Demoncherub: --shrugs--

[9:29] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Get us in contact with Ardana III. Lets see how things are.

[9:29] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: Are you /really/ going to try to preach to me about dealing with this unit, Connelly?

[9:30] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: You people have literally driven me insane at least once in the recent times.

[9:30] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "Indeed, though I will be on alert in case whoever has been searching this sector returns."

[9:31] [DOIC4] Aellas@xemion1111: The blue alien smiles, tapping merrily on his console and rerouting the updated schematics for a newly designed probe that uses tachyon-based sensor systems to cut through the interference.

[9:31] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: If vwe cannoa raise dhe,m, vwe might 'ave ta land...I recommend shuttle.  If comms are buggered..so vwould transport signals.

[9:32] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon nods.* I'd be happy to fly an away team in via shuttle, captain...will be a much more pleasant experience than last time, hopefully.

[9:32] [DOIC3] Alex@Demoncherub: --He begins filling some hyposprays with drugs.--

[9:33] [DOIC3] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: I should get up to date on the mission. I'll check in with you later, AJ.

[9:33] [DOIC3] Alex@Demoncherub: --nods-- Sure thing Action Jackson.

[9:33] [DOIC3] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: *smiles and nods, taking his ovaltine and PADD with him*

[9:33] [DOIC1] T'Sirak M'rara C'son@Cute_Girl: *She begins now scanning the system for any and all information she can uncover.*

[9:34] [DOIC3] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: *Vic heads to a conference room to review the Ardana data*

[9:34] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: -silently watches the screen.-

[9:34] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: I am goin' to let Dealta and engineer prep shuttled fer landin dhen capn....

[9:35] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Proceed.

[9:35] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon mumbles.* Wonder how that Chief on the Andromache is doing...

[9:35] [DOIC1] T'Sirak M'rara C'son@Cute_Girl: Captain, COmmander, It seems that we are picking up a high amount of Starship debris in and around the third planet...And strange interference from that same world's atmosphere.

[9:35] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= Aegis..get jur people suited and vready ta shuttle drop. If vwe cannot raise anyvoen on comms..ju all are goin' in...get vwith engieering fer comm signal booster and vwot over ju need.

[9:36] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "Captain, we are being scanned.  The signature is... Federation."

[9:36] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Vwe in visual vrange?

[9:36] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: I want eyes on it.

[9:36] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon blinks.*

[9:37] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: -looks at Alice- any vrespnse to our open hails?

[9:37] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] Weak incoming hail.....tryign to clear it up to respond

[9:38] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Good. Won't have ot try light-based communication.

[9:38] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: That would be going quite a ways back in time...

[9:39] [DOIC1] T'Sirak M'rara C'son@Cute_Girl: There is currently a Federation Vigilant Escort ship in orbit around Ardana III.

[9:39] [DOIC4] Aellas@xemion1111: The blue alien cracks their knuckles at once more scientifically saving the day, at least, helping save the day. They went to lean back presuming there was a chair there; there wasn't.

[9:39] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] it will get stronger as we near the system....but its audio....-smiles- Ma'am..its the Protector!

[9:39] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] They are signalling us

[9:39] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Well that's one objective down.

[9:39] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Put them on.

[9:41] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] All right listen up...Sebetheran ...gear up Team one for shuttle insertion and head down the hanger bay to await deployment to the surface...Team two is on standby in the hanger bay for

[9:41] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: support drop..lets go peopel gear up and lets get moving -hts her com- =^= Delta Actual acknowledges Bridge,,,,

[9:42] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Audio Signal] -^-....to incoming task force.....is USS Protector......over....ease...respond...this is....respond -heavey static-

[9:43] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] Again the static is localized to the system only

[9:43] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -coughs a little before switching to a private channel- -sbv- Ensign Adryan when we're on duty, sir. Or callsigns.

[9:44] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -sbv- Get your tail in gear one one -warmly-

[9:44] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: We need to get closer.

[9:44] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: Alright, you heard the Lieutenant. Get moving.

[9:45] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Davidson] -smiles- Wow....someone actualyl made it through all of that

[9:46] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: -both teamd scramble and head down tot he hanger bay...there Team two moves to a ready room while team one waits to board a shuttle being modifed by engineers for heavy atmosphere operations-

[9:46] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: 5 minutes out, captain.

[9:46] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -steps over to the boarding ramp of the shuttlecraft- So you flying or am I, sir?

[9:48] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -smirks- I am sure they will send down a pilot Ensign...we just are boarding early

[9:48] [DOIC4] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: -Aellas lands with a THUD-

[9:49] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Keep us on course. Battlestations. Jus tin case they're being used as a trap.

[9:50] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: Pilot? Perfectly capable of flying a shuttle...

[9:50] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] It is not a recorded message...they keep tryng to hail us..its definitely a voice message

[9:50] [DOIC4] Aellas@xemion1111: Continues to look up at the ceiling from where he layed, softly groaning at the pain of his stupidity.

[9:50] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -smiles- I quite certain that you are One one...but I am equally sure we are not the only components of this intended away team

[9:51] [DOIC1] Kessi Davem@Mouse43dz: *Hurried back to her seat, watching the monitor intently.*

[9:51] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Varel., ju gettin; anythin' from dat debris?

[9:52] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "Scanning now..." *she replied, attempting to get a reading.*

[9:52] [DOIC4] Aellas@xemion1111: laid*

[9:52] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Doesn't mean someone couldn't be sitting in wait.

[9:53] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: C'son..ju got anythin' fer us?  Speclation iz fine.

[9:53] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "I am reading both Federation and alien metals.  The debris appears to be mostly made up of destroyed starships."

[9:54] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Vrecent fightin', vwe getting residual energy traces?

[9:54] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: The battle there was long and arduous...no doubt some of it is from the initial invasion at least.

[9:55] [DOIC1] T'Sirak M'rara C'son@Cute_Girl: *She sends a message down to Aellas, wondering what happened with those probes...She then scans for any hidden enemies...Or if the audio signal they picked up was automated, if possible. Or if it were

[9:55] [DOIC1] T'Sirak M'rara C'son@Cute_Girl: --faked.*

[9:57] [DOIC1] T'Sirak M'rara C'son@Cute_Girl: As far as I can tell, Ms. Walker is correct that the message is not automated, and currently I believe it to be authentic as well. I also do not detect any hidden ships in the area. If I were to make-

[9:57] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] That is a lot of debris for it to be just from our battle Jon...most of this has to be from the war that followed

[9:57] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "The debris does not appear to be recent, however I am reading recent weapons signetures in this system.  Federation signatures."

[9:57] [DOIC4] Aellas@xemion1111: Aellas slowly stands and replies in typing. 'Check your messages.' and in them the CSO would find a redesigned probe built to cut through the interference like a knife through butter.

[9:58] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon nods.* That as well.

[9:58] [DOIC1] T'Sirak M'rara C'son@Cute_Girl: --an assumption, it would be that this ship which is trying to hail us may have key information.

[9:58] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: But nothin' juseful as to the system comms interference...thanks.

[9:59] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] There is a lot of heavy localized interference we cant explain

[9:59] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: So you're not able to determine epicenters of these distortions?

[10:00] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] Whatever the soruce is...it has to be /huge/

[10:00] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Mr Demor, make sure ju have a suitable team to escort personel over to the Protector if needed.Dhey never send uz on milkruns...

[10:00] [DOIC1] Tolar@Starboard_Nacelle: "Acknowledged, Commander."

[10:00] [DOIC1] Stingray@Gothicfoxx: *Ready to get her science on.*

[10:01] [DOIC1] Tolar@Starboard_Nacelle: =/\= Demor to Anbari: Have yourself, V'Daris and Vyhr on standby."

[10:01] [DOIC1] T'Sirak M'rara C'son@Cute_Girl: I did state there was something on the planet's atmosphere.

[10:01] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: It it is a source...signal comes in waves..so vwould counter signals...

[10:01] [DOIC4] Aellas@xemion1111: Aellas would also note that his pre-existing plans for tachyonic-based sensors also work via a collected tachyon pulse from the deflector dish; acting as a tachyonic anti-telephone to recieve the +

[10:01] [DOIC4] Aellas@xemion1111: information before one had called out for it.

[10:01] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Abaro] =^= Aye Sir...

[10:02] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: do some math and look over da data vwe arw gettin'..so if there are cosign or tanget signals mixed in da static.

[10:02] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Hmmm.

[10:02] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: I see.

[10:03] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -shakes her head- I know this might seem increible but if T'sirak is right...then the source of interference would be the planet itself

[10:03] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Has to be something artificial on the planet, right?

[10:03] [DOIC1] T'Sirak M'rara C'son@Cute_Girl: *Still wonders why there are no probes being sent out, or worked on. She replies to Aellas: "Get on it." She then works to find out whether it was a Federation vs Federation battle.*

[10:03] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Vwould make sense..vwe have no clue vwot got unleashed dhere..

[10:03] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: It vwas bad newz.

[10:03] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Vwe in visual vrange jet?

[10:04] [DOIC1] T'Sirak M'rara C'son@Cute_Girl: I am not sure that the planet by itself would be nearly this powerful in interference.

[10:04] [DOIC1] T'Sirak M'rara C'son@Cute_Girl: We are approaching the visual range, yes.

[10:04] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] Nothing in the record shows the world ver generated any kind of interfeence

[10:04] [DOIC4] Aellas@xemion1111: The alien raised a brow. "=/\= Aellas to main engineering."

[10:04] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: We have arrived, m'am.

[10:04] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Nothing indated Iconian super vweapons vwere gonna be unleashed dhere either..

[10:04] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Odd Jib] =^= Go ahead Me Aellas

[10:05] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: r*

[10:05] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [walker] -winces at this- Very true

[10:05] [DOIC1] T'Sirak M'rara C'son@Cute_Girl: 32

[10:06] [DOIC1] T'Sirak M'rara C'son@Cute_Girl: ((mt

[10:06] [DOIC4] Aellas@xemion1111: "=/\= So the CSO wanted me to handle this but uh, I need some probes refitted to these specs and then prepped to be launched? Sorry! Don't want to sound bossy."

[10:06] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon looks back.* Standard orbit?

[10:06] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Attempt to contact the Protector again once we've established standard orbit.

[10:07] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Aye captain.

[10:07] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon moves the Sentinel in orbit around the planet.*

[10:07] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Odd Job] =^= No worries Enisgn....what do you need? send us down the secs and we can crank em out for you

[10:07] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: First thing first..estalished contact vwith da Protector, assesse dheir situation and vrender aid if needed.

[10:07] [DOIC1] T'Sirak M'rara C'son@Cute_Girl: Hmm. Captain, COmmander, it seems that Federation weapons were fired onto the planet recently, and at this distance, I can confirm the interference originates from the planet's atmosphere.

[10:08] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Dat bring us close to da planet..and very can deploy Delta to da surface as vwe sort out da Protector..right capn?

[10:08] [DOIC] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: On the screen as the sentinel /approaches/ the planet...the world seems to be no longer the blue gem of a class m world it once was...dark rolling clouds seem to cover the entire globe..the system is

[10:08] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Sounds good.

[10:08] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Sound slike the protector has already been attempting to get rid of the interference.

[10:09] [DOIC] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: filled with spinning and dead hulks of starhips of all classes both federation, romulan, klingon, Xaiti , Elachi and even one or two Iconian cruisers

[10:09] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Aye..bring us up in a synchronized orbit along side da Protector, Jon.

[10:09] [DOIC4] Aellas@xemion1111: They would forward the specs of a custom probe that uses the Class 8 as a basis; it is entirely tetryon based and is missing some of the 'non-essentials' for such a mission. "=/\= Wired through."

[10:09] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: {walker] -winces- Oh god

[10:09] [DOIC1] Stingray@Gothicfoxx: *Blinks at the screen.* Well, thats not good..."

[10:09] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon looks up at the screen and freezes, transfixed by what he is seeing for a moment.*

[10:09] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: That's...not the planet we left...

[10:10] [DOIC] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: As the Sentinel moves into orbit with the erchant vessles the Protector raises up and matches orbit with them. Her hull is dark and carbon scored with dozens of battle wounds

[10:10] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] The Protecor...she is under power it seems

[10:10] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: We are right alongside them, captain.

[10:10] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "It would appear that whatever weapon that was fired on the planet resulted in this change."

[10:10] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: C'son...can vwe get vreadin's from that atmo..I ain;t sendin Delta down iffin dhey canna make it.

[10:11] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: At least determine if they can go in environmental suits.

[10:11] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -slaps her console- and there go our ACCI and SUbspace feeds...we lost them as we etnered orbit

[10:11] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Vwe gettign vreadin's from the Protector..life signs?

[10:11] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Oh boy.

[10:11] [DOIC1] Stingray@Gothicfoxx: *Starts working on clearing the interferance for the systems.*

[10:11] [DOIC1] T'Sirak M'rara C'son@Cute_Girl: I would think it safe to assume the planet's condition is perhaps a cause, or effect of the interference....And on it. *She checks for stability of the surface, safety, and habitability, as well as --

[10:11] [DOIC1] T'Sirak M'rara C'son@Cute_Girl: --what may be possibly causing such a scene.*

[10:12] [DOIC1] Tolar@Starboard_Nacelle: *Tolar runs another sweep on the internal sensors, the drastically changed conditions outside the ship making him want to double check.*

[10:13] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Varel would be constantly checking her own scans, wanting to make sure nothing snuck up on them at this juncture.*

[10:14] [DOIC1] T'Sirak M'rara C'son@Cute_Girl: From what is observable, there is life on the planet's surface...However, the cloud formations are highly charged with Subspace Interfering Particles, which block communications and transporters. I --

[10:14] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: I imagine if dat effectin our comms..it gonna interfer vwith alot of detail scannin'

[10:14] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Unsatisfied with the readings, she checked them again...*

[10:14] [DOIC1] T'Sirak M'rara C'son@Cute_Girl: --would wager it to be from a deliberate and weaponized source.

[10:15] [DOIC1] Tolar@Starboard_Nacelle: *Stoic as always, he's silently, internally grateful that there isn't anything anomalous aboard the ship.*

[10:15] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Vwe need ta get boots on both places...canna vraise da Protector..so capn..one of us should go with a team over there to estalish contact.

[10:15] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Vwe als need to deploy Delta to da surface..iffin dhey cannot contact us back..dhey can investiage and vreport back instead.

[10:15] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -blinks- Captain....um..we are being hailed by the Protecor...its on a focused subsapce beam...short range but intensified

[10:16] [DOIC3] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: *Vic finishes reviewing the Ardana data and any outstanding diplomatic advisories about the system*

[10:16] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Proceed Exec. Also bring it on screen.

[10:16] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Varel nodded silently to herself at the readings.  As it was a lack of a change that she was reading, she decided not to bother the captain with it.*

[10:17] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon looks up intently at the signal.*

[10:18] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [On the Main viewscreen an Chief Petty Officer appears, she is in a torn gritty yet fully equipt tactical uniform, she has a weary but energetic smile- Unidentified task froce can you read us..this is

[10:18] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: Chief Petty Officer Dritza of the USS Protector...please respond

[10:18] [DOIC3] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: *taps on his computer*

[10:19] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: WE hear you Protector. This is captain Joyaus Dalun of the USS Sentinel.

[10:19] [DOIC3] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: *frowns as he notes the interference*

[10:20] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Dritza] -sits back as a muted cheer and some clapping can be heard around her off screen- Captain...we are very glad that you can! Are you are relief? We've been out of touch for some time now

[10:20] [DOIC3] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: *files his open document under his personal files and then goes back to Ardana-related stuff*

[10:21] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: our*

[10:22] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -smiles at the cheers-

[10:22] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: We noticed. And yes. One of our objectives was to determine if you were somehow still alive. Are you the seniormost crew remaining?

[10:23] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: -whispers- capn..dinna sound like they got any officers left aboard over dhere...

[10:23] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] One One..take the shuttle's helm...plot us a course to do a fly over of the Ardani capitol city

[10:24] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Dritza] -smiles- Only two...and we are sort of a collection of surviors from the various ship sent here...we got this oold girl working out of what we had left once we retook orbit away from those

[10:24] [DOIC1] Kessi Davem@Mouse43dz: *Let out a brief chuckle to herself and sighed. She looked up at the monitor and suddenly refocused her attention.*

[10:24] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: Grozzit eating Elachi!...-is beaming- We are soo happy to see you...I take we retook the sector ma'am?

[10:25] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: -in the back console-=^= Aegis..ju may loose comms, if so...ju got two hours to investiage and get back.  Keep jur people safe and dinna make us form lookin' fer ju.

[10:25] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] =^= Understood Commander...we will keep to schedule

[10:26] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -gasps sotly to herself- They...they dont know..

[10:26] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: We'll get you squared away Protector. Don't worry.

[10:26] [DOIC1] Stingray@Gothicfoxx: *Frowns lightly, those poor souls.*

[10:26] [DOIC3] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: *taps his finger on the desk as he watches the video of the Ardana III seige* Hmm. The Xiati.

[10:27] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon looks back at Shantal briefly and then back at his console, shaking his head.*

[10:27] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Dritza] -smiles and nods- The skipper and his Exec are down below at the war council....they will be happy to here we got some relief..how many troops are with you Ma'am?

[10:27] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: hear*

[10:27] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Dritza] I count what...a dozen troop carriers?

[10:28] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Sissia] -takes a deep breath as she is abotu to return home-

[10:29] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= Mister Springfield please report to the bridge.

[10:29] [DOIC3] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: =/\= On my way, Commander.

[10:29] [DOIC3] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: *he shuts his computer and heads for the door*

[10:29] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: War Council?

[10:30] [DOIC1] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: *woosh*

[10:30] [DOIC1] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: *strolls out of the turbolift, PADD in hand*

[10:30] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Dritza] -nods- Yes ma'am...witht he ground forces...the Skipper is meeting with the Allied ground commanders and the core resistence leadership...we got em on the run below Captain...

[10:30] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: -nods toward the screen an in hushes tones-  Vwe made contact vwith da Protector..

[10:31] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] One One..take the shuttle's helm...plot us a course to do a fly over of the Ardani capitol city

[10:31] [DOIC1] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: *hushed* Looks like they've seen better days.

[10:31] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Da menagery of assorted crew dinna know da vwar is over...

[10:31] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Sissia] -takes a deep breath as she is about to return home-

[10:31] [DOIC1] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: *Raises an eyebrow* That's... not what I would expect.

[10:31] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Dritza] We were setting up for a fire mission on the Tanzia forest north of New Secta when we detected you

[10:31] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -laces his fingers together and walks up to the shuttle controls and sits in the seat.- Been awhile.. but you know what they say you don't really forget. It's like beating up a bicycle.

[10:32] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Aye...thier senior officers are in a "vwar council"

[10:32] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Grant] -gulps- Wait..how long has it been since you went...bicycle riding there boss?

[10:32] [DOIC1] Tolar@Starboard_Nacelle: *He has a sneaking suspicion about what's going on at the moment and looks over to T'Sirak, hesitating.*

[10:32] [DOIC1] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: Something is afoot. Any Starfleet officer in this situation would attempt to contact command as soon as possible.

[10:32] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -cracks his fingers- I don't know how to ride a bicycle, Grant.

[10:33] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Vwere gonna need ta help dhen an' find out vwot goin' on..hoepfuly vwithout shots bein' fired.

[10:33] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Grant] well...cand you safely land one?

[10:33] [DOIC1] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: It sounds like a meeting with the... "war council"... is in order.

[10:34] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: -nods and goes quiet as she goes back to listening-

[10:34] [DOIC1] T'Sirak M'rara C'son@Cute_Girl: *Idly wonders if there is some temporal displacement afoot. She does a quick scan to prove, or disprove her notion.*

[10:34] [DOIC1] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: *also watches*

[10:34] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: A bicycle? Pretty sure those don't fly, Grant. -goes through preflight and awaits the check crews okay-

[10:35] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: What forces are you fighting on the ground? To the rest of the galaxy the War is over.

[10:35] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Dritza] -goes to answer her imemdiately and stops....and blinks- ..I am ...sorry Ma'am..what did you say?

[10:35] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: -the bridge of the protector goes silent-

[10:36] [DOIC1] T'Sirak M'rara C'son@Cute_Girl: Hmm. *She sends her findings over to the console Shantal was using, as well as Tolar.*

[10:36] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon spins his chair around.* Commander Arnimane...who is piloting that shuttle for Delta?

[10:37] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: -Ground crew signals he is cleared for launch-

[10:37] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *She raises an eyebrow, trying to determine the emotional state of the crew by their expressions.*

[10:37] [DOIC1] Tolar@Starboard_Nacelle: *Tolar reviews the data.*

[10:37] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: No clue Jon..but it vwil be fine..ju finna have ta fly everythin' vround 'ere.

[10:38] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: =^= One-One to Actual. We're good to go as soon as we're needed. Any last minute passengers?

[10:38] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] Just me...lets go One One

[10:38] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Not suggesting that I do, Commander...but if there are elements on the planet who still think they're at war with the Federation...it is suicide not to send a dedicated pilot.

[10:38] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: The war is over, Chief.

[10:38] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Doesn't have to be me.

[10:39] [DOIC1] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: *frowns*

[10:39] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Dritza] -blinks again pale as if afraid to hope- and....we....won...yes?

[10:39] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: -a few more faces ont he scren behind her all looking as haggard but ready to fight as she was-

[10:39] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Jon..dhey vwill manage..I trust officers to let us know fo special needs...Delta said dhey got dis..so I trust in dat.

[10:39] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -looks behind him and shrugs- That sounds like it'll be more fun than bringing diplomats. Helmets on people.

[10:40] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon shakes his head.* They don't have all the information...*he lets out a deep sigh and turns back to his console.*

[10:40] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: =Delta complies silenty for a change and readies themselves for the flight-

[10:40] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Jon..vwe do vwe ever?

[10:40] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -disengages the landing locks and throttles forward-

[10:40] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: We don't...but this new information is rather important.

[10:41] [DOIC] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: -The shuttle slips free of the Sentinel and darts out into the orbit ovr the scarred world-

[10:41] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon watches the shuttle depart the Sentinel on the navigational sensors and head for the planet with a sick feeling in his stomach.*

[10:41] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: a bit of faith...

[10:42] [DOIC2] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Odd Job] =^= Engineering to Ensign Aellas

[10:42] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: =^= Delta One-One to Sentinel. Atmosphere entry in thirty seconds, two minutes to landing target.

[10:43] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Don't worry. We won.

[10:43] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Varel kept an eye on the shuttle and the surrounding area.*

[10:43] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: =6= Copy dat...try ta stay in touch and vreport vwot ju find.  Dinna make us send Jon after ju.

[10:44] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] We are recieving the com feeds from the Protector to cut through the interfernece cloud to the shuttle

[10:44] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Dritza] -sits back into the command chair and covers her face as the rbdige around her explodes into a thunderous happy cheers and hugs-

[10:44] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: =^= Acknowledged, Sentinel. Bit of a concern, if you send the Helmsman, who's going to crash your ship?

[10:45] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: -some chuckles around th ebridge at that-

[10:45] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= I sure vwell manage somehow...Sentinel out.

[10:45] [DOIC1] Stingray@Gothicfoxx: "That made their day." *smiles lightly.*

[10:45] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: {Walker] -smiles and nods to Val- Nice to be delivering good news for once isnt it?

[10:45] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon twists his face at Seb's remark, then cna't help but smile as the Protector celebrates the end of the war.*

[10:46] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Chief, I suppose we'll need to get on contact with the captain on the surface then. Does anyone aboard the Protector need medical attention or other assistance?

[10:47] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Dritza] Yes...! Yes...well we can try and patch you through Captain..hold on!...Davis! Davis! get a hold of doc! we need her up here on double! ..Fergie...Fergs! patch us through to the skipper!

[10:47] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: I'll take that as a yes.

[10:47] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: -the crew scramble still celebrating some as they carry out her orders

[10:48] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Dritza] Oh sorry Captain! Yes yes ma'am..we surely can I will but you right through to Bulldo...um..the commander imemdiately!

[10:49] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Dritza] -looks over as she recieves a report from her crewman- They are getting him now ma'am..s.tand by

[10:49] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -cracks his jaw as they enter the atmosphere and begin the approach toward their landing site- So.. I probably should have asked before, are they fighting near our landing zone?

[10:50] [DOIC] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: The shuttle enters the wild atmosphere of Ardana III and is in some heavy chop as the urbalnce fromt he cloud hits the shuttle hard

[10:50] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: -whispers- Capn, vwonder vwho dhey are still fightin'?

[10:50] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: That's what i want to know. They didn't answer when I asked before

[10:50] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] =^= Delta Actual to Sentinel...do we have a battle stauts update on our LZ around the Capitol City?

[10:51] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Dritza] -to Joy- We are and have been fighting with holds out Elachi ground forces....the Xaiti...well...we can guess why now..all took their lives months ago

[10:52] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Drita] that cut their force virtually in by two thirds....god its been almost a year now

[10:53] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Grant] -to Seb- do you think you might try to miss at least some of the turbulance Sir?

[10:53] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: More than likely the Elachi and Xiati are acting as allies independently, or under the direction of T'Ket...

[10:53] [DOIC1] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: *raises his eyebrow*

[10:53] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: (( wait. scratch that. I readh it wrong

[10:53] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: {Walker] T'ket Captain?

[10:54] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: -whsipers- Alleycat, can you send them over a list of MIA from this sector and see if they got any matches on thier end?

[10:54] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -nods - I surely can -begins to do so-

[10:54] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon nods to Dritza.* Some of us on board were here in the system trying to finalize the acceptance of the Ardani into the Federation when the initial Xiati invasion occurred.

[10:54] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: More than likely the Elachi independently...

[10:55] [DOIC1] Stingray@Gothicfoxx: *On a lark, starts scanning for Elachi signals in the area. They are crafty aliens after all.*

[10:55] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Davidson] The Xaiti most likely commmited ritual suicide like they dd int he first invasion when they failed their masters

[10:55] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -takes his ahnds off the controls- By all means, Grant, take over.

[10:56] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Grant] -squeals- KEEP YOU HANDS ON THE CONTROLS!

[10:56] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Walker, T'Ket is the name of the Iconian that refused to surrender. She was definitely a Hawk if I recall... But if there are no heralds here, theres no way to know if the Elachi are acting>

[10:56] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: >independently or under the direction of her or her forces.

[10:57] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: She's been quite despite her apparent declaration to continue the war.

[10:57] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -rests his hands on the back of his head, leaning back a little- With such a backseat pilot, why would I need to? You got this.

[10:57] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: *quiet not quite

[10:57] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Dritza] -smiles with some pride - Well i highly doubt they are gettng any orders ..not since we retoo the high ground captain...we cut them all off

[10:58] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Dritza] Since then we've bene hutning out nests and burning them out when we find em

[10:58] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: I'll definitely need to get in on this war council. And report back to command the conditions here.

[10:59] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Dritza] The skipper and XO have been tirelessly working to help the Ardani Provisinal government get back on their feet

[11:00] [DOIC1] T'Sirak M'rara C'son@Cute_Girl: I'm ok, you?

[11:00] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: The issue here is, you mentioned troop transports. We've brought relief supplies, chief. This was a relief mission, not a liberation.

[11:00] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: All we have is our delta teams and security forces.

[11:00] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] =^= Delta Actual this is th Sentinel at this time there seems to be no reported hstile action in nor around your LZ

[11:01] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -sighs and places his hands back on the controls- I hope I made my point clear. Lieutenant, not really feeling too confident about this. Need an enemy strength update. Last thing we need is anti air.

[11:01] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: And the considerable might of the Sentinel, of course, but that's better for demolishing the world rather than liberating it.

[11:01] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] Sentinel reports no known enemy activity at the LZ at this time

[11:01] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Temple] so ...Hot LZ yes?

[11:02] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: -whsipers- Capn'..somethin' dinna add up..the comms issue is local..vwhy dinna dhey leave planet orbit to contact command?

[11:02] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -quietly sighs, with supressed dejection- No. Everything should be smooth. Picnic isn't going to be as fun as advertised.

[11:02] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Chief, what is the status of the Protector. Is she capable of warp travel, or at least long range intra-system travel?

[11:03] [DOIC1] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: *whisper* There must be something else going on here. There's no reason why they would not make every attempt to contact Command.

[11:03] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Dritza] -to Shantal- Each time we tried...we got jumped by Elachi ships and unknown hostile ships we took as Enemy allied forces

[11:05] [DOIC] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: Teh shuttle breaks cloud cover and finds a clas m landcape around the city pockmarked by heavy figthing long since over...limited lighting can be seen below showing some pwer in the suburbs around the

[11:05] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Hmmm. I wonder why they haven't attacked us yet...

[11:05] [DOIC] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: captiol but the city looks dark and show heavy damage fromt he war

[11:05] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: WE've encountered no hostile forces on our way in.

[11:06] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Dritza] Our last engagement was around two weeks ago Captain....since then we dug in and waited for relief while we assited in ground force mop up

[11:06] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -doesn't take more than a second to examine the landscape as he rapidly descends the shuttle toward it's marked field.

[11:06] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -

[11:07] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -runs a scan of the area- I am showing signs we are being scanned locally

[11:07] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Do you have any scans of those vessels?

[11:07] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] Scans are starfleet in nature

[11:07] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Dritza] I can send them over you ma'am -nods-

[11:07] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: -queitly- It seems thier officers are not as enthused 'bout our arrival...

[11:08] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] it is taking them a while to be put through to us

[11:08] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Of course..

[11:08] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: Phones' ringing, Lieutenant.

[11:09] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: alleycat..can you get us a subspace relay link back outside this interference to notfiy command?

[11:09] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -nods to him- Lets hear what they have to say...answer them One One

[11:09] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] No....not until we deplpy those relay probes Commander

[11:09] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: They've probably noticed that we're not loaded for war. Honestly, if there is an Elachi force on the planet that is still plaguing them, they do need to either be reasoned with or defeated.

[11:10] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Perhaps we can make use of the time instead of waiting idle Capn...to break order and deploy the replays to estalbished system communcations.

[11:11] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Protector does no seem..imperaled at the momement.

[11:11] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: I'd rather focus on getting us on the ground.. but if you insist... =^= This is Ensign Adryan of Sentinel Delta Team One.

[11:12] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Protector. Maintain station. Inform your superiors that the Sentinel has arrived and assumed command of operational security in the system.

[11:12] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -smirks and says in a sing song voice- Multi-task One One..Multi-task

[11:12] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Walker, Cameron. Get us started on deploying those probes. Lets get to work.

[11:12] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "Captain, the shuttle has been scanned from somewhere below them."

[11:12] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Aye captain.

[11:12] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Were they able to determine who scanned them?

[11:13] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -nods- Aye Captain

[11:13] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -nods- Aye Captain

[11:13] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: If I multitask any more we're going to be short a Delta because Grants fat ass will have a heart attack.

[11:14] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Voice] =^= -a pause and then- Sentinel Shuttle send IFF codes now prior to attempted landing, over

[11:14] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon begins to plot a course for the Sentinel to be able to deplay the probe.*

[11:14] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] Jon plot me a course for the relay network

[11:14] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: Yes, bury me in protocol.. =^= Stand by for transmission

[11:15] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: On it, Lieutenant.

[11:15] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Varel would attempt to trace the scan back to its source.*

[11:15] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] =^= Sentinel this is Delta Actual..we require IFF codes for the friendlies down here

[11:15] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] =^= Do these people believe we are still on a war footing?

[11:16] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= There seems to be a disconnect..can ju relay da IFF vrequest to da Sentinel itself..if not..

[11:16] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -starts adjusting their heading- I'm going to go into holding for the moment. I thought they were at least aware we were coming.

[11:17] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= If not Sentinel should be known as a friendly by Adaran governemtn due to past actions...

[11:17] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "The scan appears to have come from an Ardani-Starfleet field artillery unit.  It is not far from their landing zone."

[11:17] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: -sighs a bit, looking back at the main viewscreen in case the Protector is still there-

[11:17] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Dritza] =^= Yes....Standy by....the code for the day is Huckleberry 11

[11:18] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -smirks- Well that is charming..we've been targetted by a ground based Phaser battery now

[11:18] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: That's about right.

[11:19] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] =^= Sentinel this is Delta Actual...the locals have locked on to us with a phaser battery

[11:19] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: If they shoot at me, someone loses an eye.

[11:19] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Endel] Well they seem nice and friendly

[11:19] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: -transmitss the IFF code Huckleberry 11-

[11:19] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: ...what the fuck is a Huckleberry? -relays the IFF-

[11:20] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -looks athe code and then shows it to Seb- =^= Acknowledged Sentinel....transmitting now

[11:20] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: (Flip the last two posts)

[11:21] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Voice] ....Acknowledged Shuttle you are showing as friedly you are cleared to land

[11:21] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon looks back to Alice.* Course laid in.

[11:21] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: -the lock on the shuttle disengages-

[11:22] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: -begins deplying the probes as Jon hits each way point-

[11:22] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Protector, we're going to proceed with our temporary comm network. Do you require anything before we move out of range?

[11:22] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: Never mind the non-aggressive holding pattern... Sissia, I'm going to beat your people stupid. -readjusts their course to take them to the LZ)

[11:23] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Sissia] Something is off here boss...feels wrong ya know?

[11:24] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] The Ardani military was only infused with starfleet for a few weeks before the war began..that is why Master Chief Winterhagen was here

[11:24] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: They've had a year to get it right, lieutenant.

[11:25] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Dritza] We are standing by for your return Captain....and ma'am..thak you again for your good news

[11:25] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Alleycat..vonve we are clear of the planet's interferance...estlaished communcation vwith command and send dhem vwot vwe got on dat situation.

[11:25] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: {walker] Yes ma'am!

[11:26] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon begins to manuever the Sentinel on the course to deploy the probes.*

[11:26] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Of course. Sentinel out.

[11:26] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -completels the lineup for their final approach and brings the shuttle down- ...As for wrong.. do we have any reports on fighting anywhere?

[11:26] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: I don't think Admiral Compton is going to like this.

[11:26] [DOIC1] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: This situation is highly suspicious.

[11:27] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Canna blame her..I dinna like it much myself...

[11:27] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon looks back to Kessi.* Did you sense any deception?

[11:27] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Vwe still cclear Varel, C'son..no other contacts in system?

[11:27] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -blinks mildly surprised- We are getting local updates now....looks like the city is largely abandoned....large refugee centers in an round the suburbs....-frowns- No report of enemy contact

[11:28] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *The slightest crinkle in her brow disturbs the impassive expression usually set upon her face.  She ran a few more scans on the Protector, not wanting to bring anything up to the captain until she...

[11:28] [DOIC1] Stingray@Gothicfoxx: *Begins scans, collecting data for the mission.*

[11:28] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: had something solid to mention.*

[11:28] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: ...What kind of war zone doesn't have any war in it...

[11:28] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] Perhaps this sector has been secured?

[11:28] [DOIC1] Kessi Davem@Mouse43dz: *Shook her head.* I didn't sense any deception, but there was a sense of relief.

[11:29] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: -the shuttle is hailed again-

[11:29] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: Maybe. need to see the bigger picture here. They're awfully trigger hap-... =^= Sentinel Shuttle -offcomm- We really need a better name.

[11:29] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -smiles- the shuttles name is Dyson

[11:30] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Grant] it is in block letters on the hull sir

[11:30] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: There's also "lard ass" in block letters on your locker...

[11:31] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: It be best if we can link command in on dis all directly..let them sort it out right at da source.

[11:31] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Officer] =^= This is Lieutenant Dassa...Sentinel shuttle you are to stand by at the LZ ....a represetnative from the war council is in bound to your position

[11:31] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: It sounds like we'll need troops regardless. I have a feeling that these Elachi will be abandoned by their masters.

[11:31] [DOIC1] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: I can see no good reason why the officers on the surface would have stayed out of contact with Command for so long.

[11:31] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] The last of hte relays has been deployed

[11:32] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: =^= Acknowledged, Lieutenant. Maybe he can explain why it was such a fantastic idea to aim a phaser cannon at a Federation shuttle.

[11:32] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Me neither Slick...dat excuse of mystery ships keeping them in orbit seems kinda vweak too...

[11:33] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Hmmm.

[11:33] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] The Ardani system and the Azure nebula have been largely cut off since the end of the war....our resources are stretched a tad thin

[11:33] [DOIC1] Stingray@Gothicfoxx: "Maybe there is something going on they haven't mentioned yet."

[11:33] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: I get that Alleycat, but Slick haz a point..gdu officer keep tryin...

[11:34] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Dassa]=^= To be honest sir..not my call...we were able to tell it was a starfleet signature..but our ojections were overidden by Bulldog

[11:34] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: And dhey said dhere vwe a mix of suriviors..ships sent...

[11:35] [DOIC1] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: Not only is it a matter of regulations, but also of self-preservation. They must have their own reasons for hiding out.

[11:35] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: -an ardani hovercradt slips over and lands near the shuttle on the airstrip....a half a dozen armored starfleet solider disembark and surround one officer who runs to the shuttle

[11:35] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -brings the shuttle into and it lightly sets down- =^= I'd be concerned if I had to take my orders from a canine... Sentinel Shuttle Dyson touchdown. See you soon, Lieutenant.

[11:35] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: -an ardani hovercradt slips over and lands near the shuttle on the airstrip....a half a dozen armored starfleet solider disembark and surround one officer who runs to the shuttle

[11:35] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Let look over any sector orders for vwessleded deployed or ordered to the area short after Sentinel's first...visit 'ere...

[11:36] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -notices the entourage- ooh.. can we do that too?

[11:36] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] TF 48 and Alied TF 78 were trapped and under siege here for the duration of the war

[11:36] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -gets up from his seat and lowers the ramp-

[11:36] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: and all that is left is the Protector?

[11:37] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -chuckles- Have th team secure the laz and lets go meet our VIP One One

[11:37] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: Lz*

[11:37] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] yes ma'am so it would appear

[11:37] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: ...Sure, Sir. -adjusts his autocarbine and steps off down the ramp-

[11:38] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Still seemns off..they vwe all over our shuttle like flies ta shite..but vwe vwere on hold fer da officers to get our greeting..how long?

[11:39] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: -Delta secures the area around the Dyson and waits as the entrourga shows up...the officer runs up to seb and stops looking a litle confused at the pair of delta officers as she looks inside of the

[11:39] [DOIC1] Stingray@Gothicfoxx: *Grunts and starts checking for unusual energy signatures in the area, directing it back towards the planet.*

[11:39] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: shuttle as if waating for someone else-

[11:39] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "Captain... I did not want to bring it up until I had solid proof, but I believe there may be an issue with the repairs undergone by the Protector.  It may be worth looking into more in-depth."

[11:40] [DOIC1] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: If I'm not mistaken, these officers are under our command now. They should be called to account.

[11:40] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: I am guessin' they know da shuttle ain;t form 'round 'ere too...

[11:40] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Explain, Varel.

[11:40] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] Vic is correct we do have operation authroity in system now

[11:40] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Let hear Varel out...

[11:40] [DOIC3] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [DeSoto] -flops into a chair- You know..its the waiting I hate

[11:41] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: Can I.. help you?

[11:41] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "The power configuration that was used in the Protector's repairs are... off.  My scans have been unable to detect the true extent of the issue, but my intuition tells me there is something wrong."

[11:41] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "It may be... illogical, but I believe it may be worth probing deeper."

[11:42] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Officer] -removes her helmet as a long slip of blond harir flows out ot cover her shoulders, Alice looks to Seb and frowns- Where is your Pilot ..Ensign..Adryan isnt it?

[11:42] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: That like take boardin' her...

[11:42] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: and dat ain;t cool vwithout permission...and vwe are on..hold.

[11:42] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -blinks and is so taken aboack she is unable to say anythign immediately-

[11:43] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Vwe coudl strong arm it..but might be better to let command to tell dhem al lfirst hand..since they have been out of touch so long.

[11:43] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: You're looking at him. What's the problem?

[11:43] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: It's possible they've just repaired things incorrectly, perhaps?

[11:43] [DOIC1] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: We would be well within our rights to take command of the Protector. My understanding is that there are no commissioned officers aboard the ship as of right now.

[11:44] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -looks confused- Usually the primary pilot for the Sentinel is Jon....he is all right isnt he? and how in gods name did you fit this aboard the Sentinel?

[11:44] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "That is my thought.  If this is the case, then the Protector may be in danger and we should take precautions to assist."

[11:44] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -gestures to the shuttle-

[11:44] [DOIC1] Stingray@Gothicfoxx: "Hrms." Again, extends a sensor sweep of the ship debris in the area. reaching over to pet the mascot for luck.*

[11:44] [DOIC1] Kessi Davem@Mouse43dz: That would be advisable considering the unstable situation going on there.

[11:44] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: ...-looks to Decia- ...This is /not/ happen is it? Because.. in a really.. REALLY.. weird way.. I want this to be happening.

[11:44] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -Looks over to Seb at this-

[11:45] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -keys her com- =^= Delta Actual to Sentinel...byt he Son please come in

[11:45] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Even as she spoke, Varel would continue to scan the ship for any additional information she could find.*

[11:45] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] He /is/ all right yes?

[11:45] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Legal, sure..but it send a rather awjkward message.  Ju call capn. I more da mindset dat comand can sort it out once we get da link goin'.

[11:46] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: Oh.. yeah. But.. how do I explain this?

[11:46] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: No. Let's find out more information from thier officers below.

[11:47] [DOIC1] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: *scratches his chin and thinks about the situation*

[11:47] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: If anything, I'd think that a commission may be in order for the NCO in command currently with her recent troubles.

[11:47] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -smiles- is he up there -looks skyward- Bulldog said something about the war might be over....but har dto tell with hithese days

[11:47] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *She tilted her head ever so slightly to the side as she read the result of her latest scan.*  "Captain, I have further information.  The impulse engine of the Protector is feeding almost entirely...

[11:48] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -looks over to Top and calls out- Hey Top! How do I explain that there is another Walker already on our ship, and that we know that she's not really -opens eyes and looks back to Walker- and holy shit

[11:48] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= Vwe vread ju Aegis..vwot ju got fer uz?

[11:48] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: there are more of you.

[11:48] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: into their weapons with minimal thrusters.  It may as well be an orbital weapons platform in its present state."

[11:48] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -blinks- what....

[11:48] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Top] Oh nope nononono no sir...I want no part o this one...yar on yar own

[11:48] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -to Decia- There are more of them. Fuck me. I quit. I'm not doing this.

[11:49] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] =^= Sentinel this is Actual..we have made contact with a war council representative...it is Lieutenant Alice Walker....late of the USS Sentinel

[11:50] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -snaps her head up from her console at this-...what

[11:50] [DOIC1] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: *immediately looks over at Walker*

[11:50] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= Vright...of course.

[11:50] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: It's possible that is all it's capable of doing. How does her warp drive and associated systems look?

[11:50] [DOIC1] Stingray@Gothicfoxx: *Blinks.* Glancing over at Walker.*

[11:50] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -looks at Walker- Lieutenant Walker.. do you know me?

[11:50] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] smirks- that is not funny....what the hell is going Adryan

[11:50] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon spins around at his chair, staring at Alice with a blank expression on his face.*

[11:50] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: Oh thank god you do. That makes this less awkward.

[11:51] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *She tried to get a reading on the Protector's warp drive.*

[11:51] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= Aegis..can ju put Alice on vwith us directly please?

[11:51] [DOIC1] Kessi Davem@Mouse43dz: *Looks around the room and finally follows along with giving Alice a look.*

[11:51] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: ..Though not by much... so.. Walker.. do you ever wonder why you're here?

[11:51] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] Yes...you are Erys grouchy security officer

[11:51] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -smirks- are you crazy...is that what your deal is?

[11:52] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] =^= Wait one Commander...-walks over to 'Alice'- Com....Shantal would like to speak wth you

[11:53] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -beams at the name and keys in her com- =^= Rooomie is that you??? You made it out as well???!

[11:53] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: {Walker] -blances almost pale white as she hears her own voice over the coms-

[11:54] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= Hey ho Alleycat...jes I am fine, but I dinna think jur unicorns made it out..so how ju been?

[11:54] [DOIC1] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: *taps on his PADD*

[11:54] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon struggles not to fall over in his chair.*

[11:55] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -to Decia- We never should have come here.

[11:55] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] =^= -laughs0- right! like you woul dlet anything ever happen to them! Its been a nightmare and half...the war has been over down here for months...we got a crusder down here Roomie....and a

[11:55] [DOIC1] Stingray@Gothicfoxx: "Mmm, hm." Starts checking for temporal distorations.*

[11:55] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: lot of hungry and scared people!...I am soo glad to hear your voice honey!

[11:56] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] By the Son

[11:56] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= Vwe are 'ere ta help.  Vwe are setting up a comms link to Starfleet vwrite now and shourt shortly begin vreleif efforts..but Alleycat...Sentinel made it...alot of us did...

[11:57] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= not sure vwot happened down dhere..but seems like time move on..vwith ju all...

[11:57] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] =^= Did the skipper?? we lost a lot of folks getting he rback to you...

[11:57] [DOIC1] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: *A chill goes down Vic's spine*

[11:58] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= She is vwrite 'ere...hold on a sec...let me send you a video and data file...

[11:58] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] =^= Also roomie a heads up...we got an issue down here....as i said we got us a crusdaer on our hands...and its making a mess of things

[11:58] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: -whispers- Alleycat..send jur twin the video and data from Sentinel's last battle over Earth...

[11:58] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [walker] -doesnt respond as she seems frozen as she listens-

[11:59] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= Vwere 'ere ta help...so as ju look dat over..who is dis crusauder..or vwot?

[11:59] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon just stares blankly at Alice, his face devoid of any color.*

[11:59] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: -pulls up the files and sned them herself on the transmittion-

[12:00] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -to Decia- So.. explain to me, because I'm missing something, when exactly did we leave Walker here on Ardana III?

[12:00] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] =^= a Lt COmmander Peter Holland....call sign Bulldog...loo Shannie he did a fantastic jb..relaly held us together...the whole place...but after the Xiati toot hemselves out....its been chaos

[12:00] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: down here

[12:00] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: Unless Winterhagen went through a crazy metomorphasis and decided he REALLY liked how Walker looked... I am very much missing something.

[12:01] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -looks to Seb- I was not a part of the crew for this mission Sebetharen

[12:02] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: -pulls up records on Peter Holland she they talk and she lets twin Alice see the other history sent to her-

[12:02] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: Sort of my point... you're... you're not going to go all blonde on me are you?

[12:02] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] No ...  am not an alice if this is your concern...oh Poor Jonathan

[12:03] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= so how did it all get ta a mess, vwot is happenin' now?

[12:03] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: Poor Jonathan? Some might disagree. more worried about you at this point.

[12:03] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: Decia] Why?

[12:04] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: Because /this/ one hasn't heard any of the stories or bonded with you.

[12:04] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] =^= You want my input and the majority of the Ardan starfleet officers? ...the strain has gogten to him

[12:04] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: -is silent, processing what's going on-

[12:05] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] =^= He did amazing things...so well his ppularity keeps him in command...but things are getting missed down here Roomie

[12:05] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] =^= You see....-a pause.....as Seb and Decia warch Alice studie a data feed she has been sent-

[12:06] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= Vwell, vwe are 'ere now and vwe help get dis sorted out vright...dina forget to look over dat data I sent ju.

[12:06] [DOIC1] Stingray@Gothicfoxx: *Ponders the on going situation, attempts to run a passive scan on the planet's inhabitants, excluding the Delta's they sent down.*

[12:06] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] =^=....Roomie....um...looking over it now...this battle....this battle im looking at....this was the end?

[12:07] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Varel was still trying to determine the Protector's warp drive capabilities.*

[12:08] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= It vwas, jes....look at da date stop...Sentinel fought 'er last dhere..da battle eventuall vwon...annd a peace treaty signed soon after...

[12:08] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= Seems liek time moved forvward except fer ju all...

[12:09] [DOIC1] Stingray@Gothicfoxx: *Quirks her brow and opens the sensors to scanning the cloud cover over the planet. Looking for the source.*

[12:09] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] =^= Roomie these dates...are the same dates the Xiati here took their own lives....we've been fighting ....a side that has surrendered

[12:09] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= aye...though I image dhey are as clueless as ju 'ave been...

[12:10] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] =^= -sighs- We suspected as much....the Eleachi have been on the denfensive ever since

[12:10] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "There have been no repairs done to the Protector's warp drive, Captain.  Their attentions seem to have been diverted entirely toward their weapons."

[12:10] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= But ju thought Sentinel destroyed 'ere..vwhy?

[12:11] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Hmmm.

[12:11] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] =^= I was an Elachi POW Roomie...the Wayneton Strike team freed me as the war broke out after word of the Starbase 234 atack reached us

[12:12] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] I could never get a straight answer on the Sentinel's true fate...the Waynetons records said you got clear

[12:12] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] =^= but suffered losses..and then we got cut off

[12:13] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= Vwe did..and fought da gud fight.

[12:13] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] =^= Roomie....is Jon...?

[12:13] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker\] -scowls at her question and looks to Shannie-

[12:13] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= I am starting to get a pciture of vwot might be goin' on...an' it ain't pretty.

[12:14] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= Vroomie..did ju vwant ta vreaturn with our Delta team to da new Sentinel?

[12:14] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon dryly swallows, searching for the words to say.*

[12:16] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: hasan chop!

[12:16] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: (( I'm here

[12:16] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= Vroomie..did ju vwant ta vreaturn with our Delta team to da new Sentinel?

[12:16] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon dryly swallows, searching for the words to say.*

[12:17] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [walker] =^= give me a moment to let my command know Roomie and ill head right up!

[12:17] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -to Decia- She's kidding right?

[12:17] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= Vrighteous...

[12:18] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= Aegis..vonce dat iz settled..pack up and head back to Setinel.

[12:18] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] =^= Um..Commander this is Deta Actua..ar eyou sure that this is ...well wise

[12:18] [DOIC1] Stingray@Gothicfoxx: *Continues looking into the cloud, cross referencing the tech that could create it. Then she'l move on to the why. The most important question."

[12:18] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon wipes his forehead with his arm.*

[12:18] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -seeths at her console and glares at Shantal-

[12:18] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: -looks at Joy-  It seeming like a bad picture is someone setting dhemselves up in power...

[12:18] [DOIC1] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: *seems very concerned*

[12:19] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *Varel appeared unperturbed.*

[12:19] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] Vic was right then about this Holland...this Bulldog losing the path?

[12:19] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Jusing popuality..rep and fear to do things..Varle vreadin's point dat Protector has been converted to an orbiting vweapon platform..

[12:20] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: That ship is going to need one Big overhaul when this is over.

[12:20] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: and vwe do have vrecent vreadin' of discharges form it aimed planetside...

[12:20] [DOIC1] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: We might be wise to use this opportunity to station some officers aboard the Protector.

[12:21] [DOIC1] Stingray@Gothicfoxx: "Permission to go over to the Protector?"

[12:21] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -sighs and shakes her head- One One get em packed up and back aboard the shutle

[12:21] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Not yet. On either count.

[12:22] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Before we try to completely screw up thier chain of command, lets talk to their command.

[12:22] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: We're not actually doing this...

[12:22] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Alleycat..any luck reachin' command?

[12:22] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -finishes taking to her Exec Dassa on the coms and nods to Seb and Decia- =^= Sqaured it away down here Roomie.see ya shortly!

[12:22] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] We've been ordeed back up One one

[12:23] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= See ju soon!

[12:23] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: ...Fine. Everyone get your asses aboard the shuttle.

[12:23] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Keep her contained for now. This is... Awkward.

[12:23] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -gives Alice a once over then heads into the ship himself-

[12:23] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -nods- Yes...all data sent...should have an answer in just under an hour Commander

[12:23] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Alice on on her vway back vwith our Delta team...

[12:23] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: dis should be interesting...

[12:23] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] she is not me and this is not amusing in the least

[12:24] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: She is a friendly poitn of contact

[12:24] [DOIC1] Stingray@Gothicfoxx: "Aye aye." Keeps the planet for more starfleet tech. Using various styles of sensor methods.*

[12:24] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "Indeed, I fail to see the humour in this situation."

[12:24] [DOIC1] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: *shakes his head* This is horrible.

[12:24] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: and does seem to have prior details of shared past...so..let play it all by ear..

[12:24] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: I don't think it's funny either, don't worry. This is awkward.

[12:25] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: But Shantal, please handle this. She'll listen to you if she is ... "A" Alice Walker.

[12:25] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon stands from his station, turning to Joy. His voice shakes somewhat.* Captain...request permission to greet the team in the shuttle bay upon their return.

[12:25] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Denied. Let's handle this "by ear" as the Exec suggested, but Carefully.

[12:25] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: I don't want to upset her if she's our main friendly contact.

[12:25] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon furrrows his brow and returns to his station.*

[12:25] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: {walker] -glares at Jon-

[12:26] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: I'll see to it...

[12:26] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -sits down in the pilots seat as he gets the shuttle ready for liftoff- Hey.. Lieutenant Walker..

[12:26] [DOIC1] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: *Vic looks awkward as he senses the tension in the room*

[12:26] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -smiles with some excitement- yes ensign?

[12:27] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: See if dis Peter Holland had any close family an' friends...

[12:27] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: You weren't one of the ones who authorized the lock on this shuttle earlier, were you?

[12:27] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [walker] -looks darky- No I was not

[12:27] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: If he lost hiz vway..maybe a vreminder form a caring voice vwell help sort dis out instead of brute force..

[12:27] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] I was the one that cleared your false IFF signals

[12:27] [DOIC1] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: I can look into that if you want, Commander.

[12:27] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -

[12:28] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: {Decia] -turns= False signals?

[12:28] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: Upsetting her was not my goal captain...more learning what she knows and the last thing she remembers when we were here.

[12:28] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -cocks his head slightly and stops his flight checks- What?

[12:28] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: Please..

[12:28] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Waker] You did not give us the correct code of the day

[12:28] [DOIC1] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: *Vic taps on his PADD*

[12:28] [DOIC1] Shantal@Arnimane: -departs the bridge for the main shuttle bay-

[12:28] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -looks to Seb at this-

[12:29] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: ...Lieutenant.. can we get a status on the Protector?

[12:29] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] =^= Shuttle Dyson to Sentinel...

[12:30] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: Crew compliment, schematics, damage assessment.. and if we've sent anyone over there.

[12:30] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -nods to him- My thoughts exactly

[12:30] [DOIC1] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: Hmm. This Peter Holland has a mother and two younger brothers on Earth. *sends the data to Shantal's PADD*

[12:32] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] =^= Sentinel this is Delta Actual ..come in

[12:32] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: {walker] Captain the shuttle is hailing us

[12:32] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Hold of on it for now. Lets let Shantal approach first and she can contact you if needed.

[12:32] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: And answer it.

[12:32] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: *She raised an eyebrow, trying to get a read on what other systems the Protector was engaging.*

[12:32] [DOIC3] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= gud start Slick..let command know that vwe may need to try and patch direct contact to help negotite our situation.

[12:32] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: That isn't going to take long, captain...she hasn't seen me in almost 2 years.

[12:32] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [walker] =^= Go ahead shuttle

[12:33] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -hurriedly starts the shuttles flight systems, bypassing the preflight- We need to go.

[12:33] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] =^= We may have a situation here....can you give us a current update on the Protector...crew siz...schemetics..damage assement and have any away tams gone over as of yet'

[12:34] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -to Seb- take full speed evasives fromt ake off til we reach the Sentinel...treat the protector as hostile for now

[12:34] [DOIC1] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: =/\= Aye, ma'am.

[12:34] [DOIC1] Victor Jackson Springfield@atemporal: *makes the appropriate preparations*

[12:35] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -disengages the landing clamps- I have another idea, Lieutenant..

[12:35] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: {Decia] Hi them?

[12:36] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: Hit*

[12:36] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -slowly sits back into her chair stunend byt he voice she just heard over the coms-

[12:36] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: If necessary... we can continue a normal approach to the Sentinel. Nothing is wrong.. yet. This gives her time to /quietly/ poke around and see if anytings really wrong.

[12:37] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] I agree..stay on course then..Il prepare the team if need be

[12:37] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -softly- There are 18 aboard her....

[12:37] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] and I know every inch of the Protector...i helped them refit her

[12:38] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: Do they have a docking bay?

[12:38] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] Not for a shuttle this size....but the secondary airlock is still functional

[12:40] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: Hmm... if we can get close enough and inside their shield range before they pick it up we can board her. But we'd be going in partially blind at this point. The Sentinel has reported if we have our

[12:40] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: own abaord her.

[12:40] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: *hasn't

[12:41] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] ...they dont have shields Ensign

[12:42] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] we did for a short time...just long enough to retake orbit

[12:42] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -lifts the shuttle off the pad and begins ascending-  Even better. -muttering- Why does anything having to do with Walker always end up a headache for Delta...

[12:42] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] The Protector is basically an orbital battery at this point

[12:42] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: We'll need a go ahead to begin boarding operations..

[12:42] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -blinks- What are you talking about I barely even itneract with the delta teams? Not my job

[12:43] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] =^= Aegis to Shantal

[12:43] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: -scoffs slightly- You.. dear Lieutenant.. have some required reading..

[12:43] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [walker] -looks over at the console- Yeah...so I /heard/

[12:43] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [walker] That was me...wasnt it? that was my voice wasnt it?

[12:44] [DOIC3] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= go ahead Aegis.

[12:44] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: Hope you can shoot better than you can take a punch, Lieutenant... because if we're green lighted we're not dropping you off.

[12:44] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] =^= request permission to deal with an issue prior to landing...we have an asset to achieve this with minimal risk

[12:45] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -smirks to him- Ive gotten a lot better at fighting Mr Adryan...i can get it done

[12:45] [DOIC3] Shantal@Arnimane: =^=Need more to go on..capn' got standin' order ta not get fancy until vwe make actual contant vwith thier command chain...

[12:46] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] =^= Understood...but we can and are in a position to take control of this 'issue' and do so with minimal risk

[12:46] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: Well, that's good to hear Lieutenant. But word of warning.. if you happen to ever threaten /my/ Lieutenant.. I'll snap every limb on your body.

[12:47] [DOIC5] Alton@the5of435: *Alton simply rolls his eyes*

[12:47] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] -blinks- She seems competant and really nice...why on earth would i ever threatened her..I dont even know her

[12:47] [DOIC3] Shantal@Arnimane: =^=Is that jur recommadation Aegis?

[12:47] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: Part of your required reading.

[12:47] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Top] Yep...sooo getting drunk after this one

[12:47] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] =^= Yes it is Shantal.

[12:48] [DOIC3] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= standby then..I'll pass it up ta da capn.

[12:48] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [walker] -sighs and shakes her head- If Shannie trusts your Lieutenant then I do....i will worry about my reading once we get this done..if we do it...

[12:49] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: Given the Lieutenants... explanation of the situation.. it's going to happen.

[12:49] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: Atmosphere break in fifteen.

[12:49] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [walker] -crawls over between the par and uses her PADD- they areint hree sections of six....6 ont he bridge....6 inwhat s left of engineeering and six in their racks here...oficer country

[12:50] [DOIC3] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= Capn, Decia vrecommends secureing the Protctor..and are in a unique position to execute the action now as they seem to be heding back to us..she asking persmission to deviert.

[12:50] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] given we've seen no enemy action in weeks...and bulldogs contrilling nature..a little shock and awe will over whem them

[12:51] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: overwhelm*

[12:51] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: If they're complacent there won't be time for either of those. More likely to be pissing themselves instead.

[12:51] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: =^= What suspicion leads her to believe this is necessary?

[12:51] [DOIC3] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= She did not state..problably concern over the channel being compromised.

[12:51] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] they arent ground troops ..-smirks- that is for sure...but Dritza is good people...just can tsee their boss is off the tracks

[12:52] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: Have you suspected an issue prior to this

[12:52] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [walker] suspected..its what got me gulagged to the Capitol City command

[12:52] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] I called him out on his tactics a few weeks after the Xiait cashed it in

[12:53] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: ..It won't take but a few minutes before we're in position.. if there's something we ought to know, nows the time.

[12:53] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] Dont give them time to think....esepcially if they are struggling with hearing the war is over

[12:54] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: =^= I see. Have her do it, but inform her to make it look like we're there to help.

[12:54] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [walker] their guard is down....plus again...they are all just strung out..tired...use that

[12:54] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: =^= If you believe it is necessary yourself from her testimony. I trust your judgement here.

[12:54] [DOIC3] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= Understood ...I'll pass it along..means our meeting with new Alice vwill be delayed.

[12:55] [DOIC1] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Walker] Captain? showing a lot of heavy com traffic between the Protector and this war council now

[12:55] [DOIC3] Shantal@Arnimane: =^= Aegis, ju got permission to divert. Repeat , permission to divert.  Capn' vwot ju to ensure you extended all the gud vwill and relief ju can.

[12:55] [DOIC1] Varel@liorexus: "Captain," *Varel said suddenly.*  "The Protector's weapons have locked on to the shuttle.  They have not been charged yet however."

[12:56] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] -to Seb- Its a go...we take them

[12:56] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon looks over at Joy.*

[12:56] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] =^= Acknowledge Shantal...call you when its done

[12:56] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: Clear of the Atmosphere... setting course toward the Sentinel with path to Divert and overtake the Protector... hope we can close before they realize what we're doing and arm themselves.

[12:57] [DOIC1] Stingray@Gothicfoxx: *Blinks and starts looking for ways to hack the Protectors systems. "Looks like they are not as friendly as first thought."

[12:57] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: You have to alert them, captain!

[12:58] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: Hail them.

[1:01] [DOIC1] Joyaus Dalun@ThanatosRa: =^= Shuttle, Evasive Maneuvers, the Protector is targetting you.

[1:03] [DOIC1] Jonathan Cameron@ClingingMars: *Jon looks down at his console, extremely worried.*

[1:05] [DOIC5] Sebetharen@Sebetharen: Yeah, that's about right. Everyone, Magboots, helmets and hold the fuck on!

[1:05] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Decia] The shuttle just locked onto us...but have not charged weapons

[1:06] [DOIC5] DGMSoftKitty@Isis.: [Grant] You know...I actually hate everyone of you

[1:06] [DOIC5] Alton@the5of435: *begins cussing under his breath*
