[6:01][DOIC]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*the theme song is replaced by https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzEv-4xcYig
[6:02][DOIC]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*the Manta travels under warp towards its destination, freshly returned from its mission to Y'sila, her crew is at the start of alpha shift and the camera follows first ezri at her post on the bridg
[6:03][DOIC]T'lena@Captain_Rien:Before checkign in on each of the Manta's crew performing their duties before settling in on Marcus in the ready room as he records his log..
[6:03][DOIC]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:“Captain’s log, stardate 100023.87. We made it back to the Citadel without any more incidents that are worth mentioning and dropped off our charges, so we can close that whole chapter. Best of..
[6:04][DOIC]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:luck to the future King of Beryxia… he’s sure as hell going to need it with the shitshow that’s just dropped into his lap. Speaking of shitshows, they took my goddamn helm officer for advanced..
[6:04][DOIC]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:flight training… I knew I shouldn’t have promoted him until after the war’s over. What’s done is done, though, and Lieutenant Zhal will be returning in a matter of weeks, so we’ll just have to do..
[6:04][DOIC]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:our best to make sure there’s still a ship for him to return to then. In the meantime the siege to take Beryxia back from the Imperium is set to begin soon, so I guess command’s decided that now..
[6:05][DOIC]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:would be a good time to squeeze in some exercises before things get complicated again. Our orders are to perform a sublight patrol between two waypoints in an asteroid cluster located in sector 35..
[6:05][DOIC]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:while escorting an objective transport they’ve simply referred to as Saint. It’s an exercise so for all I know so far it’s a giant holographic Saint Bernard transporting a keg around its neck, but..
[6:06][DOIC]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:what’s actually important is that our simulated enemy activity’s going to involve ambush tactics. I know most of the crew’s more than capable, but we do have some untested officers aboard; time to..
[6:06][DOIC]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:see if they have what it takes to serve on the Manta. End log.”
[6:06][DOIC3]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*T'lena moved throug the ship bumping into someone as she wasn't lookign up from her padd
[6:07][DOIC3]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Man] Sorry Commander! *the crewman bore a yellow stripe of the operations division and had dropped his own padd
[6:07][DOIC3]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[T'lena] Don't worry about it, Crewman
[6:08][DOIC4]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He set his PADD down and leaned back in his chair a moment.* =/\= "Bridge, what's our current ETA?
[6:08][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:sits on the bridge at tactical, for the moment just monitering space
[6:08][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*Bore paced back and forth in engineering, keeping track of the new people.
[6:08][DOIC3]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Man] Hobbs Ma'am. Security transfer just came form the citadel um... I'm suppose to have Bridge guard duty but um... I can't get into the bridge yet
[6:09][DOIC3]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[T'lena] Probably didn't update in the system, you aren't a spy are you hobbs
[6:09][DOIC3]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] No ma'am. Just new. I was a part of a merchant ship that got stuck on this side of Artesia. Got sick of sitting on my hands
[6:09][DOIC3]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*t'lena scanned him
[6:10][DOIC3]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[T'lena] Should be in the system now. Oh if your going to go to the bridge could you take this to the Commander
[6:10][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:=^=Bridge here sir.=^
[6:11][DOIC4]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*Blaine looked directly to the camera for a moment.* =/\= "...Did you not hear the question?
[6:11][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Lorna] Hey boss! That flow regulator in tube 3 junction 12 threw its calibaration again
[6:11][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*the little irushey smiled looking up at him
[6:11][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:=^=oh right, ETA...I will check on that sir.=^
[6:11][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Lorna] Probably means the replicators on command quartering are making thing sa bit to hot
[6:12][DOIC4]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He rubbed the bridge of his nose.
[6:12][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--looks at helm-- "Are we there yet?
[6:12][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Wiebe] We are forty five minutes out of system
[6:12][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"thanks.
[6:12][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*Ezri's console was blinking
[6:12][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:=^-We are 45 minutes out sir. I think we are making good time.=^
[6:12][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Yeah. I imagine Blaine's drinking and eating peanut butter again... We'll turn down the juice to them to 45% and send one of the new guys to recalibrate.
[6:13][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Lorna] I can do it I like the tunnels
[6:13][DOIC4]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:=/\= "Thank you Tegan. All clear on sensors?
[6:13][DOIC3]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*t'lena headed to her original locaiton leaving a padd with the crewman
[6:14][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Fair enough. I'll go deal with the power draw.
[6:14][DOIC3]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] Right... uh *he headed to the turbolift* Bridge
[6:14][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*He went to suck down some of the power to the command replicators.
[6:14][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:=^=So far scopes look clear sir, i am monitoring for hidden ships..even cloaked ones.=^
[6:14][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*power draw turned down as expected
[6:15][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Dalby] You know once upon a time they actually had physical knobs for that
[6:15][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:turns around blinking, she sighs turning back to her console, wondering if its her nanites acting up, she does a scan of the bridge to see if anyone is there that should not be, just to be saf
[6:15][DOIC4]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:=/\= "I'd sure hope you were. Thank you, Lieutenant." *He got up from his chair, pacing the room a bit.
[6:15][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*the console in front of sarah showed clear except for the people that were suppose to be there.
[6:16][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*Ezri's console however was beeping now
[6:16][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--Ezri shruggs and turns back to her sensors.-
[6:16][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"What are you beeping about?
[6:16][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--she checks the alert.-
[6:16][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Computer] Anomalous singature detected
[6:17][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Huh. Can't imagine that, really.
[6:17][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"i have a unknown contact on scope.
[6:17][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Hell, even the consoles on 23rd century stuff were half physical. Dials and knobs and switches.
[6:17][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"Where?
[6:18][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"trying to localize it now.
[6:18][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Kinton] yeah, they didn't even label them. Just little different colored knobs
[6:18][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Kinton] Liek on the Nx-0
[6:18][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:goes on a scanning spree of her own, trying to help locate the signature
[6:19][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Baker] =^= Commander, you may want to get to the bridge we have an unknown contact. Ezri what do you make of it
[6:19][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:((Ezri Sarah Rolls
[6:19][DOIC4]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He paused in his pacing, looking up at the ceiling.* "Yep. There it is.
[6:19][DOIC4]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:=/\= "On my way.
[6:19][DOIC4]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*he turned and headed out toward the bridge.
[6:20][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"How'd the hell did anything get done? Also, prep the DCs, we got an unknown contact. With us, 90% of the time that means hostile.
[6:20][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"i am trying to get a read on it. it may be a cloaked vessel. I recommend red alert.
[6:20][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*Blaine stepped onto the bridge.* "What do you have for me?
[6:21][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"I have located it, at 160 mark 34 z, 23 degrees off starboard, its going in and out, its there, then its not
[6:22][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"a heavily dispersed chroniton field that is growing stronger along the vector 160 mark 34. Z declination of 23 degrees off starboard.
[6:22][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Baker] Well that is a double confirmation something is out there
[6:22][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"i am also picking up a surge in tetryon and tachyons.
[6:22][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"As in its cloak is failing it, or it's--- oh, hell. Are we close enough that it'll impact us at all?
[6:23][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*enterign from the other room is a young crewman of african descent he has a padd for marcus
[6:23][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He walked up to the big chair, glancing at the crewman and taking the PADD with a nod.* "Thanks.
[6:23][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"whatever it is the increase intensity indicates it is getting closer, I can't tell if it is on a collision course though.
[6:23][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] *waits for an opening
[6:23][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Helm, alter course to try and evade, let's try not to get caught up in this.
[6:24][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He glanced at Hobbs.* "Something else you needed, Crewman?
[6:24][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[V'tira] Fascinating
[6:25][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:tries to get them more information but then seems to just freese "I am hearing...something
[6:25][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[V'tira] Ezri, can you perform a deeper scan on that sector. For a moment I just detected an attemt for IFF handshake. But the codes were so old they were rejected
[6:25][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Hobs] Doctor T'lena had this for you sir
[6:25][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*hobbs hands marcus the padd
[6:26][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] *waited to be dismissed
[6:26][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*Blaine took it, glancing at its contents and nodded.* "Thank you, Crewman. Dismissed.
[6:26][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:quickly looks up the USS Powel
[6:26][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:((give me a perception check bore)
[6:26][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Now, hearing things in the LMC isn't exactly anything new... is anyone else hearing things?
[6:27][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"And V'Tira, even I know that chronitons usually mean time... shenanigans." *He paused.* "Any ships go missing around these parts since we arrived in the LMC?
[6:28][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[V'tira] Nothing Recent
[6:28][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[V'tira] Nothing Recent
[6:28][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--gives V'Tira a curious stare for moment, as if surprsied to see her before responsding.-
[6:29][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*bore barely catches the glimpse of someone out of the corner of his eye go behidn the warp core
[6:29][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*not one of his
[6:29][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"Sure thing V'Tira.
[6:29][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*Bore blinked and grabbed for one of his heavier tools, heading behind the warp core.
[6:29][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--she begins her scan.-
[6:29][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:((another roll ezri)
[6:29][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He watched the viewscreen contemplatively, letting the nerds work while he considered the possibilities.
[6:30][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"This makes no sense, I am hearing a general distress from the USS Powell, that was lost hromi cluster nearly 200 years ago
[6:30][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"are the handshake codes from that time?
[6:30][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"we are a long way from the Hromi cluster.
[6:30][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*as bore rounds the warp corp he is met with nothing... except soemthign is shining on the floor
[6:30][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Baker] I am not detecting any distress call
[6:30][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Baker] I am not detecting any distress call
[6:31][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*He went to check what the shiny thing was.
[6:31][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*t'lena enters and seems a bit confused
[6:31][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"...What?" *He looked at Sarah in confusion for a moment.* "How are you the only---" *There was another pause.
[6:31][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Okay very funny.
[6:32][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Doc?" *He looked back.
[6:32][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"I just had a call from the bridge. Medical emergency, but when I asked what it was no one responded.
[6:33][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"I don't know, I heard it af if in the back of my mind
[6:33][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"It wasn't from us.
[6:33][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"it was Cathy's voice.
[6:33][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:m
[6:34][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*when bore picks it up its a very old form of wrench liek that carried in starfleet of the early 23rd century
[6:34][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"Doctor, may be good you are here, I am hearing things
[6:34][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He frowned.* "Something's going on, here. Tegan, has the field reached us while we weren't looking?
[6:34][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"What kind of things.
[6:34][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:=^= "Bridge? We got some temporal fuckery afoot.
[6:34][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"What kind of things.
[6:34][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*she walked over to Sarah
[6:34][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:=/\= "Yeah... I'm coming to that same realisation.
[6:34][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"Distress call from a ship lost 200 years ago roughly
[6:35][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:=^= "I found an early 23rd century wrench. This thing hasn't been carried as standard equipment for two centuries. Not to mention, the guy carrying it disappeared.
[6:35][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*t'lena starts scanning her
[6:35][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:=/\= "Yeah, that time would check out." *He nodded to the others.* "Take us to yellow alert.
[6:35][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Well thats odd, your auditory receiver is active.
[6:35][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Baker] Active Yellow alert
[6:35][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:=^= "Ezri, stand by for scans.
[6:35][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:a cloud of chronitons, tetryons, and tachyons doctor. Anyway i think I have something sir, Putting it on screen now.
[6:36][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--she puts the image of her scans on screen.-
[6:36][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He looked at the screen.
[6:36][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Lorna] *just then lorna comes running out of the jeffreys tube* GET DOWN
[6:36][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*Bore grabbed a tricorder and went to give the wrench a scan in case anything gave Ezri a clue.
[6:36][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"The fuck?" *He got down just in case.
[6:36][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*engineering responds by getting down
[6:37][DOIC]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*the Screen showed a starship. The clean slate hull, red nacelles in a ranger class configuration from the early 23rd century, the ship was adrift and seemed surrounded by a dark cloud
[6:38][DOIC]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*as the ship rotated it revealed the name. USS Powell NCC-1631.
[6:38][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"That is the Powell for sure
[6:38][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He frowned.* "Well... how the hell did you end up here?" *he muttered, then looked at Ezri.* "Can you detect any life signs aboard?
[6:39][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:Your receiver has stopped Sarah
[6:39][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"scanning for life signs and power signatures.
[6:39][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"Even the registry matches
[6:39][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*Nothing happens
[6:39][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*Then Something very odd happens
[6:39][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"...Lorna? When is the explosion happening?
[6:39][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"Not hearing anything at the moment, no
[6:39][DOIC]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*the entire ship cycles to impusle reactors
[6:39][DOIC]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*a dimming of the lights followed by their return to strength
[6:40][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*many alarms go off on the consoles
[6:40][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--scans the Powell for life signs and power-
[6:40][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Shit!" *He ran to his central console to take stock of what happened.
[6:40][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He looked up.* =/\= "Engineering? What the hell is going on?
[6:40][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:=^= "That's what I'm trying to figure out!
[6:40][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"i am not detecting any life signs.
[6:41][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"the ship seems to be under power, but I am not detecting a warp reaction...so I can't tell where it is getting power.
[6:42][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:=^= "Uh. We have no warp core. Literally.
[6:42][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Guess that would be a bit much to ask after two hundred years." *He tilted his head then.* "What about that cloud? Could it be obscuring---
[6:42][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:=^= "But... it's right here.
[6:42][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:=/\= "...What?
[6:42][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[V'tira] Marcus I just got timeouts on teh ACCI
[6:42][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:=^= "The warp core and the impulse reactors are in place, but they aren't -reading-.
[6:42][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[V'tira] Marcus I just got timeouts on teh ACCI
[6:42][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"that is possible sir, i am trying to determine the nature and composition of the cloud.
[6:42][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:=^= "It's like they're not even there.
[6:43][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He squinted.* "Helm, it's probably a long shot, but see if you can still move us.
[6:43][DOIC5]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Smythe] =^= boss htis SMythe i'm at impulse reactor one. Reaction is completely cold and core restart didn't work its like.. physics is broken
[6:44][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:=^= "Smythe? I have an idea. Do you think you could remove all components that were not available to us in the early 23rd century?
[6:44][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:=^= "It's a bit of a longshot, but I want you to do it.
[6:44][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"Are we merging with the Powell?
[6:44][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"it could be a ghost ship sir.
[6:45][DOIC5]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Smythe] Sir these impusle reactors have thing sin them from fresh manufacture im not sure I can
[6:45][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:=^= "Alright, don't bother. Let me run a quick experiment.
[6:46][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*Bore grabbed one of the small 24 century gennies they'd use on away missions and tried to turn it on.
[6:46][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Weibe] Setting course
[6:46][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He breathed in deeply through his nose, not saying anything as he watched the Powell on the screen.
[6:46][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:(25* century
[6:46][DOIC]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*the Manta moves under impusle power.
[6:47][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*it won't start
[6:47][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Well what do you know. Can we get out of the field at this rate of speed?
[6:47][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Weibe] We are moving sir but this is drainign reserves fast
[6:47][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*He headed to the replicator, muttering a prayer under his breath that it'd work, and tried making a 23rd century equivalent of the same thing.
[6:47][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"...Shit. Full stop.
[6:48][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:seems to almost turn off as she leans forward over her console, not moving any further, completely catatoni
[6:48][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He glanced at Sarah.* "Ensign?
[6:48][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:does not reply or reac
[6:48][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Doc...
[6:48][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"the field seems to be growing in size sir. it is giant compared to what it was 30 minutes ago. Perhaps it is drawing power from our ship?
[6:49][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"She's still there. but its liek she's dreaming.
[6:49][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[V'tira] ACCI system is offline completely
[6:49][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Well wake her up if you can." *he looked at Ezri then.* "Can we reverse it? There has to be something we can do.
[6:51][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:shakes her head as she blinks and looks around, her eyes fall on T'lena "Captain, the doctor said to shut down everything non esential, quickly!
[6:51][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*Replicator reads insufficiant energy
[6:51][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Fuck.
[6:51][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"I did what?
[6:51][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"I recommend we shut down power and try to escape the field using maneuvering thrusters and the laws of motion.
[6:51][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Well that was going to be my next--- oh, fuck it.
[6:51][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"Captain, please trust me
[6:51][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*When bore turns around he sees the warp core enter a breach then get sucked back into itself
[6:51][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:=^= "I think Ezri's right. Shut off all power for now.
[6:51][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:=^= "HOLY FUCKING SHIT!
[6:51][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:=/\= "Ristovski, shut down everything-- what?
[6:52][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:=^= "Uhrm. We had a warp core breach and then the core reappeared.
[6:53][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:Marcus we might want to listen to me
[6:53][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:=/\= "...Okay. Officially done with this Twilight Zone.
[6:53][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*He went to shut power off.
[6:53][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"I already gave the order!
[6:53][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*Only leaving life support, thrsuters and comms.
[6:53][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"i just picked up a huge burst of antichronitons..
[6:54][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"From where?
[6:54][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*And the rest of the essential stuff.
[6:55][DOIC]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*the ship dims to emergency lighting
[6:55][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"...from inside the engineering section of the powell. Captain, we are trapped inside some sort of anti-time bubble. I suspect the engineering section of the Powell is the source.
[6:55][DOIC]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*only essential systems are powerd... and the sensors
[6:56][DOIC]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*the Powell Looms in the view screen
[6:57][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Okay... so how exactly are we supposed to reverse it from here?
[6:57][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:We might want to put our heads toegether on that one
[6:57][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:Pool table
[6:57][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"...What?
[6:57][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"i don't think we can reverse it from here sir." --she says looking at the Powell on screen.--
[6:57][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] GET DOWN SIR
[6:57][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:briefly closes her eyes and takes a deep breath before opening her eyes again "does that mean a bubble where time does not pass?
[6:57][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*the crewman jumped tackling marcus
[6:58][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"The fu--" *He was taken off-guard and hit the ground.* "Crewman what the hell!
[6:58][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*when he did a beam of energy appeared in the air and hit his chair
[6:58][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*catching it on fire
[6:58][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He blinked as he looked at his burning chair, then back at Hobbs.* "Okay... you get points for that.
[6:59][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*the other security crewmember grabbed the extinguisher
[6:59][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:((investigation round actions go)
[7:00][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Dalby] You may want to get up to the bridge. see if we can't figure out what in the prophet's name is going on
[7:00][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*Blaine got back up to his feet, looking around the bridge with a furrowed brow.* "Where the hell did that come from? More time bullshit?
[7:00][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*Bore went to take pieces of tech that would be similar to 23rd century ones, like a type 1 phaser and a simple multitool, and a modern day phaser and a modern tool.
[7:00][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Just give me a sec.
[7:00][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Dalby] What are you doing
[7:00][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*He aimed both the type 1 phaser and the new one up into the air.* "Listen. I can't help but shake the feeling this is one of those cruel LMC jokes. We were jsut talking about 23rd century tech, and
[7:01][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Looked like a energy discharge.
[7:01][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Now there's a 23rd centurt ship... call me insane, but I think 23rd century tech and derivatives still work.
[7:01][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Plasma... I wonder if that was the medical call I got.
[7:01][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*He tried firing both phasers up into the ceiling.
[7:01][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"I don't think the normal rules of space and time exist here sir. That blast could have been from the past, the future, or from no where at all.
[7:01][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*both fired
[7:01][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"or not.
[7:01][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Well, hold the fort, I'll heaad up there.
[7:01][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"It did." *He went to grab a tricorder from a cabinet and scanned his chair.
[7:03][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--Ezri flips open her tricorder and scan the area looking to see if time is flowing correctly on the bridge.=-
[7:03][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:((rolls for scans)
[7:03][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*He made his way to the lift and took the ladder up.
[7:05][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He squinted at the nerd device and tossed it to Hobbs.* "Well... the fire was real," *he muttered.* "But if that keeps happening, then we don't have the time to sit around waiting for it to..
[7:05][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"i am detecting anti-chronitons and tetryon particles...not sure if that is significant, considering the field we are trapped in.
[7:06][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:happen again.
[7:06][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"I think its safe to assume the doctor that spoke to me was from the future, I was on a table, she said we don't have much time, then gave me the message
[7:06][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"One possible future maybe.
[7:07][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"I suppose in theory your implants could be used to send messages. if someone mad them do so
[7:07][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Our possible future if we don't find a way out of here. I don't suppose the doc offered any hints on how to collapse the field?
[7:07][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Ezri is one of the few people that could do something liek that
[7:07][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:=^= "Hey, Kara? Can you do me a solid? I think I messed up. -Batteries- work. Generating power does not. Anything with fusion shouldn't work. Can you find something powered by some other method and
[7:07][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Give it a test?
[7:08][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Dalby] We'll work on it. I mena i could hook up a bicycle and get someone pedalling
[7:08][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"who would I send a mesasge to?
[7:08][DOIC2]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Dalby] too bad snow is back on the Citadel
[7:08][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"...Us.
[7:08][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"But across time? trough well would that not be trough two of me?
[7:08][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"I don't think there were
[7:08][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"The only other time in history this was done the borg that sent the message was dead.
[7:08][DOIC2]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*He continued climbing towards the bridge.
[7:08][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"In theory.
[7:09][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He rubbed his nose.* "Tegan, see if you can't figure it out, then... we need some more information if we're gonna get free.
[7:09][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"The research was abandoned because one in broke the temporal prime directive and two killing to send a message was a bad idea.
[7:10][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"or using a body that was already deceased.
[7:10][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"Yeah sure I could tune her neural implants to send and receive in the techyon particle range. This would allow communications backward in time.
[7:10][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"But like i said she couldn't exactly be a living Sarah to do that.
[7:10][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"So no chance of asking the future. Fucking hell.
[7:11][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] Didn't Lt. Tegan say the burst came from the other ship
[7:11][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--nods-- "i did.
[7:11][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] Maybe we have to go there sir? Could be something we need to deactivate
[7:11][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*hobbs froze as if he was afraid he spoke out of turn
[7:11][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"i would recommend checking it out sir.
[7:12][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He eyed Hobbs a moment.* "I was trying to avoid that if possible... but I don't see that we have any other choice in the matter.
[7:12][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Baker] Incomming message
[7:12][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"Its a possible future..." she swallows, there is fear in her but also determinatio
[7:12][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Really? Show it.
[7:12][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*Bore walked into the bridge.
[7:13][DOIC]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*a image appeared on screen as bore walked in. the image was of a Starfleet Captain, his gold tunic was damaged. he was japanese, and in his late fifties.
[7:15][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"This is Commander Marcus Blaine of the U.S.S. Manta. To whom am I speaking?
[7:15][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"Doctor hypothetical for this borg body messaging thing, could it work if I was tempoarily gone but then revived after?" she looks up at the screen "Captain Takeshi Tanaka
[7:16][DOIC]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Tanaka] THis is Captian Takeshi Tanaka of the USS Powell. We are lost. Rations, depleting. We had no method to find a way home. My navigator says we are possible in another galaxy. This will be the
[7:16][DOIC]T'lena@Captain_Rien:last broadcast of the USS Powell. We foudn something... I regret... *it starts to break up
[7:16][DOIC]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*then cuts off
[7:17][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[baker] Thats it
[7:17][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*Blaine cleared his throat slightly.* "Found something they shouldn't have been poking at... sounds about right. I don't suppose transporters are currently an option, but shuttles would probably..
[7:17][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Maybe given enough reaserch but right now sarah I think i'd have to kill you to harvest the implants to reconfigure them.
[7:18][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:cause problems, too.
[7:18][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Shuttles got enough batteries for 3 days.
[7:18][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"It's doable.
[7:18][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"We'd just have to stick to maneuvering thrusters.
[7:19][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:**BEEEP BEEEEP BEEEEp from ezri's console
[7:19][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Right. It'll be a long trip, but we're not going anywhere anyway.
[7:19][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"Understood doctor, you have my permission to use my implants for such if case of my death, please talk to me before killling me if it comes to that
[7:19][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He looked at Ezri's console.* "Now what?
[7:19][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--turns and look at her console.-
[7:19][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Ensign, we don't kill crew on this ship... relax.
[7:19][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"another spike in anti-chronitins sir.
[7:20][DOIC]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*for a moment everythgin seems to be in slow backwards motion for the crew then its back to normal
[7:20][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Well let's stop wasting time, then. Tegan, Ristovski, come with me. Ensign Wynn, probably better if we bring you, t---" *He paused at the reversal.* "Oh, that's going to get annoying.
[7:21][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He eyed Hobbs.* "You're pretty quick. You're coming with us, too.
[7:21][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Yeah. Stick to tech that runs on batteries.
[7:21][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"oh boy the bubble has expanded again, it now covers the entire sector.
[7:21][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"Yes sir, are we arming our selves, sir?
[7:21][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:gets up from her chair and looks at Marcu
[7:21][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"For what good it'll do, bring them just in case.
[7:22][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:Gonna have to limit to specialists
[7:22][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:goes and gets a phaser from the bridge lock up, if there is a phaser in there
[7:23][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"there is no way to determine what the conditions will be like over there. the probability storm is likily to be intense.
[7:23][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He nodded.* "Got it. You hold down the fort here, I bet there's gonna be plenty more plasma blasts and they're gonna need you when that happens.
[7:23][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Guess we have to wait and see.
[7:23][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:"Lets hope you don't need me over there
[7:24][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*He started down for the shuttlebay.
[7:24][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Oh, we probably will... but there's only one of you, unfortunately.
[7:24][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--Ezri followed Bore-
[7:24][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He smirked and turned to head for the door.
[7:25][DOIC1]T'lena@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] *follwoed
[7:25][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:follows on the heels of Marcu
[7:26][DOIC]T'lena@Captain_Rien:*as the Manta crew got in the shuttle it faded to commercial
[DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:o
[7:29][DOIC]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*After the commercial we find the crew exiting the shuttle that was docked in the portside parade docking hatch
[7:30][DOIC]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*exiting the shuttle they fidn the quiet darkened halls of the USS Powell. suprising deviod of any signs of the crew. Except their uniforms.
[7:30][DOIC]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*the hall was littered with discard clothing.
[7:31][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*Bore looked disturbed but remained quiet.
[7:31][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] either someone had a hell of a party... or um. Sorry sir.
[7:31][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*Blaine stepped out into the hall, head tilted slightly to the side as he peered at the clothes on the floor.* "The hell happened? Scan for residue... I doubt they just took their clothes off in..
[7:31][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:the hall on their own volition.
[7:32][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He smirked at Hobbs.* "At ease, Crewman.
[7:32][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"i sure hope they are not running around naked. that would be awkward." --she says kneeling by some cloths and scanning-
[7:32][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] These old ships had a lot of people on them right
[7:32][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:has her phaser drawn and walks into the hall, eyes looking around for any sign of hostiles "340, over 18 decks
[7:33][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"We wouldn't be so lucky. They're more than likely dead or..." *He didn't finish that thought, nodding to Hobbs and Sarah.
[7:33][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] Alot of ship to check
[7:33][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"There is... but the disturbance is coming from engineering. So let's work out way there.
[7:33][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--scans the cloths for peiople or energy residue.-
[7:33][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] Um... how do we get there
[7:34][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"Right engineering is where we should start.
[7:34][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Just be careful. We don't know what can turn us into deathless anguished spirits.
[7:34][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Simple, Hobbs. Look for a lift, then take the ladder downwards.
[7:34][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] Oh right
[7:34][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"I don't suppose the future-doc downloaded a map of the ship into your brain, Ensign?" *He looked at Sarah.
[7:34][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Engineering is always further down than the crew deck, usually near the bottom.
[7:35][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"there are traces of bio residue, but little of it left...its like they got vaporized.
[7:35][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Mhm... that was what I was hoping you weren't gonna say, Tegan.
[7:35][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:tries to remember the general layout of the ship from the record
[7:35][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"sorry sir.
[7:35][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*hobbs walks out in front of them
[7:35][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Crewman!
[7:35][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] Sir
[7:36][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Stick with the group, we don't want to see your clothes laying on the ground when we round a corner.
[7:36][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] Right sir. I thought I heard you say to move out
[7:36][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--Ezri was about to make a comment on Hobbs' expendability but she remembered T'Lena admonishing her about filtering what she says andf does not.-
[7:37][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"I don't think I---" *He paused.* "I don't -think- I did, but I remember doing it.
[7:37][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"I didn't hear you say that.
[7:38][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Ezri] She can see them with a tricorder and needs to lead them around them.
[7:38][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Yeah, I hate temporal whatsits. Anyway, let's all head out. We'll find engineering eventually.
[7:38][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"that is odd...I am detecting pockets of anti-time energy..
[7:38][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"Time getting mixed up
[7:38][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*you all just hear ezri's voice
[7:39][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"Double science officer?
[7:40][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*Blaine just stared at Ezri for a long moment.* "...Can you detect the pockets and lead us around them, then?" *he asked slowly.
[7:40][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"i think so sir...follow me.
[7:41][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--Ezri moves out in front of the group scanning as she goes.-
[7:41][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Move out, then. And that time I did say it.
[7:41][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"I will cover the rear
[7:42][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Fine... but stay close.
[7:42][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"Of course sir
[7:42][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"Sir, the only path through the pockets of anti-time lead to the bridge of the ship.
[7:43][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Guess we're going to the bridge then.
[7:43][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--Ezri carefully leads the team through the anti-time pockets to the bridge of the ship-
[7:43][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*as they enter the turbolift shaft they see the 8 deck climb above them
[7:43][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"So, don't mean to sound uneducated... but what's anti-time?
[7:43][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"How can time be anti-anything?
[7:44][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*Blaine looked up the shaft.* "Fuck me.
[7:44][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Don't suppose we can call the lift.
[7:45][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*hobbs pushed the button
[7:45][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:**nothing happened*
[7:45][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Yeah... I had a feeling.
[7:45][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"I don't feel that would be a good idea, sir, in case it decides suddenly that there is no lift or its in a different time
[7:45][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"It could just as easily do that to this entire ship.
[7:46][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Right then... do we have a straight shot up the ladder, Tegan?
[7:46][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"Had honestly not thought of that
[7:46][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"Right sir, it looks like a striaght shot up the ladder.
[7:47][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Right. Then you go---" *He paused, remembering the last time he was on a ladder with ezri.* "I'll go first.
[7:47][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Can't be worse than the coln ladder, at least it doesn't stink like millenia-old shit.
[7:47][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"Sir myself or the Crewmen should go first for security
[7:47][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"in regular time there is a linear flow and all timelines collapse into a single one. In an anti-time situation it is the opposite of that.
[7:48][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He stuck his phaser at his belt.* "Yeah, you probably should," *he agreed before going to step onto the ladder first anyway.
[7:48][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*He nodded to Ezri.
[7:48][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] I'll go
[7:48][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--Ezri goes for the ladeer and starts climbing.-
[7:48][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*Climbs in after Ezri.
[7:49][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*hobs was climbing first
[7:49][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"my duty to mention it" climbs up as the last on
[7:50][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--climbs up after the security guy.-
[7:50][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He headed up the ladder.
[7:50][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*there climb was surprisingly uneventful
[7:51][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*you see the older stafleet vessels had to use their ladders more so they were better made for such things
[7:51][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*Blaine grunted as he got to the top and hit the button to open the door to the bridge.
[7:51][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*the bridge opens and now they see the first signs of skeletal remains in the captains chair
[7:52][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He stepped out onto the bridge cautiously, giving it a visual sweep in case of anything spookier than skeletons.
[7:52][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*other than a layer of dust
[7:52][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*Bore looked over the old tech in appreciation.
[7:52][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*the bridge was dead but for emergency power
[7:52][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:as the last person steps on to the bridge, checking if there is a tabl
[7:52][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"i am going to see if I can acccess the main computer.
[7:53][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*hobbs took position to guard as the worked
[7:53][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*Blaine headed over to the captain's chair, looking over the skeleton there.* "Pardon the intrusion, but I have a feeling you won't mind too much." *He tried looking for anything resembling an..
[7:53][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:((actions)
[7:53][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:old school PADD.
[7:54][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*he finds the old logbook
[7:54][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He picked it up, blowing dust from the screen before trying to power it up.
[7:54][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--Ezri went to the science officer's station and checks it for functionality.-
[7:54][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*Bore instead headed to check the engineering logs themselves.
[7:54][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:looks around trying to find tactica
[7:56][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*it pwoered on
[7:56][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*the science officer console came to life for ezri
[7:56][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*the enginering console also pwoered up
[7:57][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Okay, Captain Tanaka... what in the world did you find?" *He started looking through the log.
[7:57][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*marcus could play the first log on this log book labeled "Unknown galaxy
[7:57][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He hit play.

[8:00][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Better off than ours... they seem to have... plugged... something into teh warp c ore?
[8:00][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Any hint at what that something might've been?
[8:00][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"I am betting a bottle of the good stuff that whatever they plugged in is what is fucking us over.

[8:03][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"Science station is functioning, I am doing an internal scan now.
[8:03][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"RN... I always forget, is it RN-74 or RN-47?
[8:03][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"I think 74, right?
[8:03][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Tanaka] We were abel to adapt the crystal within our warp core but. I fear we may have created a worse scenario
[8:03][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Crystals with souls inside for whatever fuckin' reason.
[8:03][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"74, I think.
[8:04][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:shivers at the though
[8:04][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[tanaka] I lost fifteen crew today before we could shut it down. As as soon as we entered warp.. they lost their minds
[8:04][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He sucked in a breath and muttered a curse.
[8:04][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[tanaka] All of the vulcans on my crew screamed and started attacking.
[8:05][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"that is interesting...
[8:05][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Tanaka] My first officer... his last words were. it is here... and it hunger. Before he died of an aneurism
[8:05][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Good thing we didn't bring V'Tira, then..." *He frowned, listening.
[8:05][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[tanaka] I have ordered the drive shut down.. but engineering is not responding
[8:05][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"According to the ship's sensors there are seven different Manta's out there. I woner which one we came from?
[8:06][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He blinked.
[8:06][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[tanaka] I have lost contact with half of my ship... and whats worse... i think I saw myself
[8:06][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[tanaka] End log
[8:07][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"...Right. That's a problem we'll have to deal with when the more pressing issue is over, Tegan.
[8:07][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Wait. The other Mantas didn't send their own shuttles, did they?
[8:07][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"If they did, I expressly forbid any sexual contact with your alternate selves.
[8:07][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"You're not in charge here, Ristovski...
[8:07][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"But yeah, that should go without saying.
[8:08][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*marcus's combadge goes off
[8:08][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He tapped it.
[8:08][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"probably sir...how many different docking points did we look at before deciding one the one we did?
[8:08][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:'s eyes widen at Marcus, then she lets out a sigh of relie
[8:08][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Voice] =^= I.... Its here.... Waiting...
[8:08][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:=/\= "What's here? Who is this?
[8:09][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*the voice was strained... but marcus could make it out.
[8:09][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Marcus] =^= You....don't fail... this time
[8:09][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*line goes dead
[8:10][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He balked a moment before composing himself, though he did looked visibly disturbed still.* "Well... that... happened.
[8:10][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*everyone then hears a laugh in their minds
[8:10][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*and the ships lights all flicker
[8:10][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"So engineering and get the thing unplugged?
[8:11][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Shit..." *He looked up at the flickering lights, gripping the side of the armrest.* "If we can find a route there.
[8:11][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Ezri?
[8:11][DOIC]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Voice] I hunger..
[8:12][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Though engineering, all things considered, is most likely where it's... oh, that's -really- going to start pissing me off.
[8:12][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"You and half the LMC, get the fuck in line.
[8:12][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He paused suddenly.
[8:13][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] Thats not good
[8:13][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Guys... that black cloud that was around the ship. Anyone else starting to think maybe it was... you know. Like Victoria?
[8:13][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"I thought victoria just killed people, didn't do temporal bullshit?
[8:13][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:Looks at Marcus with a confused expressio
[8:13][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"I was never able to identify or quantify it sir..so its a possibility.
[8:13][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"She ate entire planets worth of people... sounds like someone who'd be hungry.
[8:14][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Fair point. You know, I may have a solution for that, but you ain't gonna like it.
[8:14][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*suddenly everyone saw somehting in the front of the brdige
[8:14][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"What---" *He snapped toward the front of the bridge, phaser raised.
[8:14][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:raises and points her phaser at the something
[8:14][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--Ezri turned toward the front of the bridge.-
[8:14][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*what faced them stood nearly 2 meters tall, had 6 legs and razor sharp claws
[8:15][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*black void skin seemed to ooze and flow
[8:15][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*and it screeched
[8:15][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*Bore raised his phaser too.
[8:15][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:((action)
[8:15][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Ah, fuck." *He fired at it.
[8:15][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--Ezri pointed her tricorder at it and scanned.-
[8:15][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*hobbs fired
[8:15][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He took a step back behind the captain's chair, joining in on the fire.
[8:16][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:hesitates a moment but opens fire as Marcus doe
[8:16][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:((rolls)
[8:18][DOIC]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*as marcus and sarah fired on the creature the shots were accurate and it seemed ti dissapear. Bores shot hit a leg.
[8:18][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:Sir..
[8:18][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] *his voice was labored
[8:18][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"What?" *He kept the phaser raised, but glanced back at Hobbs.
[8:19][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*as marcus looked back at hobbs he'd see hobbs was suspended in the air. The creature they just shot at was behind him and had him lifted through his chest
[8:20][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*a long blade arm through him
[8:20][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:((actions)
[8:21][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"FUCK!" *He roared as he turned on the creature, trying to shoot around Hobbs if possible.
[8:21][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--Ezri turns to the science console and tries to pick up the creature on the ship's internal sensor
[8:21][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*Bore aimed at the console behind Hobbs and fired, hoping the sparks distract the thing from trying its teleportation trick again.
[8:21][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:((rolls)
[8:21][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:tries to shoot the thing without hitting Hobb
[8:23][DOIC]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*Sarah bullses the thing in the head and it writhes in pain dropping hobbs and marcus's shot then obliterates the center mass cavity. Bores Phaser caused the sparks on the console as he intended.
[8:23][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*hobbs collapses to teh ground
[8:24][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Shit. Ezri, any idea what the fuck that was?
[8:24][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*He went to check on Hobbs.
[8:25][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:goes and keeps an eye on the creature's remains, weapon trained on it
[8:25][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*when bore saw waht hobbs looked like there was only one thing that oculd be said
[8:25][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"showdow beasts, servants of the Dark sir. Ship's internal sensors indicate there are two more on the ship.
[8:25][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"He's dead.
[8:27][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*the corpse of the shadowbeast was there
[8:27][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*bleeding black blood onto the deck
[8:27][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*Blaine had been shooting the corpse repeatedly to make sure it was dead, or at least as close to dead as a shadowbeast could get.
[8:27][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*it was very dead
[8:27][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"sensors indicate it is dead sir.
[8:28][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:has her weapon aimed at the copse, in case it moves, but lowers her weapon after Marcus overkills i
[8:28][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*Finally satisfied he sniffed sharply and looked at Bore and Hobbs.* "Fucking hell. Poor guy... it was his first day, too.
[8:28][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"What a fucking "Training exercise.
[8:29][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"We didn't even get to that yet, Ristovski. I reckon we won't now.
[8:29][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"i am picking up another anti-chroniton spike sir.
[8:29][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Of course you are... now find me a path to engineering.
[8:29][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Okay, my idea is a bit of a last resort. But if I can eject the warp core from up here and we use emergency power to shoot it out, the resulting explosion would hopefully take the cloud -and- the
[8:29][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Crystal out.
[8:30][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Of course, that is if we cant'reache ngineering.
[8:30][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Because it would take us out too, y'know.
[8:30][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*you all feel the slow down
[8:30][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Last, last, LAST resort...
[8:30][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"I am interfacing with the ship's sensors...looking for a path.
[8:30][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*the screen flickers on teh view screen
[8:30][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*and hobbs body is gone
[8:30][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"For exaaaaactlyyyyyyyy thaaaaat... oooohhh daaaaaaammmmn it.
[8:31][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*the viewscreen shows the manta explode.
[8:31][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He turned to the screen.* "Fuck!
[8:31][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*but it was also right where it was suppose to be.
[8:31][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"Nooooooo....V'Tira?
[8:32][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Focus, people... it's probably not our Manta." *He looked at the space where Hobbs' body had been with a frown.
[8:32][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Cross that bridge when we get to it.
[8:33][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He nodded back to Bore.
[8:33][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*He went back to the engineering logs, looking on details of the way the crystal was plugged in so he'd know how to plug it out.
[8:33][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"Bore is correct destroying the crystal could work. Destroying the crystal could return everything to the point the time loop started.
[8:33][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"I don't think that was our Manta... I think we moved time, we need to fix this quick
[8:33][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He would try to play the next log while he waited for Ezri to find them a path.
[8:33][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"of course there is a catch...
[8:34][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"What is it?
[8:34][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"anything inside the bubble would cease to exist.
[8:34][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"The bubble is pretty damned big at this point, Tegan.
[8:35][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Tanaka] I have lost the ship... los tmy crew... these things take them. feed on them like Spiders in a web....Only one thing left to do... warn... others... anyone... End log
[8:36][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Things... plural. Today just keeps getting better.
[8:36][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Ezri did say there's 2 more.
[8:37][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He sighed.
[8:38][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"..but, I am showing a corriodr form our location to main engineering...
[8:38][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Fantastic... which way?
[8:39][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--Ezri gets a beep on her tricorder and looke down at it.-
[8:41][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Ezri] And don't tell Admiral Razzor
[8:41][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*it broadcast from the tricorder
[8:41][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*His brows rose slightly.
[8:41][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"Right sir it looks like we have a plan.
[8:42][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"...Care to clue the rest of us in?
[8:43][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"Right we blow the warp core on this ship. To survive it the Manta will have to jump to warp at the same time the this ship goes boom.
[8:43][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Ezri.. so long as that field's active we can't go to warp.
[8:43][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"But you said that would destroy everything in the field-- and yeah, that.
[8:43][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"And it will be active so long as this warp core is on it.
[8:44][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:(Online*
[8:44][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"That is why it has to be at the same time, right?
[8:45][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*He rubbed his forehead.
[8:45][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"We cannot get warp back online, calculate a jump and execute that jump nearly quick enough, ensign.
[8:46][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"Right, When the ship explodes the Manta will be able to go to warp. Anti-temporal mechanics and all, the Manta should be beyond the loop incident."
[8:46][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Engines do not just -immediately- go full power like that after a power down.
[8:47][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"The field is massive at this point, too. Who's to say if it's reached another ship, or a world? We could be dooming them to die in the explosion.
[8:47][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"The first thing we need to do is get to engineering on this ship and meet with ... someone..
[8:48][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*Blaine looked at Ezri flatly.* "Well I've been waiting for you to tell me which way we have to go.
[8:49][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--right, come on we can take this jefferies..it should be a relatively straight shot to engineering deck.
[8:50][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*Bore went to follow the spotty.
[8:50][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He went as well.
[8:50][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--climbs down the ladder.-
[8:50][DOIC]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*after a dip off the bridge and some deft navigations of anti time anomalies they reach the corridor outside main engineering
[8:50][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:brings up the rear agai
[8:51][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*as they enter the corridor a Shadowbeast drops down in front fo them
[8:51][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--pauses outside of main engineering-- "This is it.
[8:51][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"Well crap..
[8:52][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*only to suddenny explode
[8:52][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*suddenly explode
[8:52][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Down!" *He barked as he immediately raised his phaser, pausing in confusion as it exploded.* "Or.. not.
[8:52][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:raises her weapon and blinks as the monster explode
[8:52][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*in a tattered uniform with some sort of super gun Hobbs walks up to them
[8:52][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"What the... Crewman?
[8:53][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] Kinda
[8:53][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"How long you been here?
[8:53][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--You must be the one the other Ezri was sending?
[8:53][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] Thats a long story. Way captain figured it out we are from abotu loop 30. You guys are loop 598.
[8:54][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He blinked.* "Well... five hundred ninety eighth time's the charm, I guess.
[8:54][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] This one we can break the loop. Because we got who we need here
[8:54][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*hobbs entered engineering
[8:55][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Right..." *He walked in after him.
[8:55][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] Alright there is the problem
[8:55][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*as they enter engineering they see an RN-74 Crystal and some sort of alien console rigged into the warp core.
[8:55][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:enters engineering las
[8:56][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] oh good this one has a console intact
[8:56][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Damn." *Bore looked over the console.
[8:56][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"Wow that does not look safe..
[8:56][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] thats rare
[8:56][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Yeah... I can see the issue too," *he muttered.* "Know what to do with it, Crewman?
[8:56][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Unsafe, and definitely not federation tech.
[8:56][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] Not exaclty each iteration is slightly different
[8:56][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Guess that means it's your turn, Ristovski.
[8:57][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] Which why i was just going to shoot the crystal. But you need to take readings from it. Get the resonance frequencies exactly right
[8:57][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*Bore went up to study the console and see what it reads out.
[8:57][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[hobbs] Then Captain.. i mean lt Tegan needs to figure out when the next anti time pulse is
[8:57][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*he looked vaguely disturbed by that.
[8:57][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"right..
[8:57][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] Then you get back to the manta, which is yours out there. still tethereed to you
[8:58][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--she scans the crystal for the energy buildup..
[8:58][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] And once your back on board. we blow the thing. and bore plays the fastest game of warp calcualte ever. Before the anti time implosion happens
[8:59][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"No pressure, all of you..." *he frowned.
[8:59][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] If it works. Your back in your time.. minus one Hobbs
[8:59][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] I switched places with him. And yours died
[8:59][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] So one way ticket for me
[8:59][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*he gave marcus a data crystal
[8:59][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"That's... rough.
[9:00][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He raised a brow.* "So what happens to you? You just go down with the ship?
[9:00][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He took the crystal curiously.
[9:00][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] You ever get back to the mikly make sure my sister gets taht
[9:00][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] Sorta
[9:00][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*He keeps working the console, trying to get the resonance recordings.
[9:00][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] If this works everything goes back to the way ti was before the incident started which was them hooking this thing up
[9:00][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He looked at Hobbs for a moment, then nodded and stuck the crystal in his jacket pocket.* "You can count on it... Calvin, right?
[9:01][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] Ezri thinks theres a chance i will jus tbe on this ship. Trapped 200 years in the past in the LMC
[9:01][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] So who knows... might see ya agian
[9:01][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"If it fails?
[9:01][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"If it fails we're all dead anyway.
[9:01][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] if it fails will be loop 599's problem
[9:01][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"That is salvageable. We once freed a dude stuck from the past on our ship.
[9:01][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"
[9:01][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"So, you know. We'll probably figure out some way to drag you back, if you remain.
[9:02][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"it is impossible to say what is going to happen when the bubble collapses...but you will likily end up where ever the Powell and crew end up..
[9:02][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] Yeah I missed you Bore
[9:03][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"I got the frequency. And thnaks. I think?
[9:04][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--Ezri finishes her scan of the crystal.-
[9:04][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Right... well, don't think of this as being insensitive, but if we've got what we need... we should probably get the hell out of here.
[9:04][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:looks with sadness at Hobbs "Thank you..." she pauses "I think I just told myself we have 8 minutes and a half minutes
[9:05][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"See? Even the alternate Ensign agrees with me.
[9:05][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] You better get going
[9:05][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*he tosses marcs the cannon
[9:05][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"There is no way to determine the exact timeing...but i can guess to within two minutes. 8 and a half minutes lines up with one of my estimates.
[9:05][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] Just in case
[9:05][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Alright. Ezri, lead us back.
[9:06][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"Right sir..
[9:06][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He caught it, sticking his phaser back on his belt.* "Thanks. Good luck, Mister Hobbs... give them hell.
[9:06][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Good luck. And thanks for the save.
[9:06][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"There is n path back to our shuttle, but the Powell's shjuttle bay is down the corridor. we can take one of theirs.
[9:07][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] *hobbs nodded and got to work setting some sort of charges
[9:07][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:finishes this time "Thank you Hobbs
[9:07][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Oh, that's gonna be a fun meeting with the temporal cops... alright, we'll take their shuttle.
[9:08][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:--nods to Hobbs before leading the team toward the shuttle bay.-
[9:08][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Fall out people... let's not waste this chance. Next iteration we may not be as goddamn gorgeous.
[9:09][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Nothing beats the original.. or the 598th, I guess.
[9:09][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"They will likely just take or destroy the shuttle, and threaten us to never talk or even think about these events ever again" brings up the rear as they leav
[9:09][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:((rolls to escape the ship)
[9:10][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*Bore grabs Sarah and pulls her to the side just as the ship in front of her deconstructed a moment.

[9:11][DOIC]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:**as the crew made their way to the shuttle bay an anti time anomaly manifested with bore saving sarah from it and out of the anomaly a shadowbeast lurched foward marcus firing the cannon and
[9:11][DOIC]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:disentigrating it rightly. they made their way to the shuttle which was in working order and were abel to launch it flyign back towards the manta
[9:12][DOIC]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*Once docked there is a montage of bore rushign to engineering and the others getting into position
[9:13][DOIC]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*at zero second just as planned the Powell seems to implode in on itself and the Manta makes the jump to warp leaving everyone in their positions
[9:13][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*On the bridge
[9:13][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[T'lena] Anyone going to tell me what just happened
[9:14][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"I'm not sure. I think. Temporal fuckery?
[9:14][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"Timely Whimey whibbily wobbely stuff doctor.
[9:14][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*Blaine rubbed his forehead a moment.* "I'm still trying to wrap my head around it, but it seems to have started with sticking a glowy alien crystal where it did not belong.
[9:14][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[T'lena] And Hobbs
[9:15][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[T'lena] And why you came back in the wrong shuttle
[9:15][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Hobbs... Is either dead or stuck wherever the Powell went.
[9:15][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He drew in a breath, then shook his head.* "Didn't make it. And... time constraints, let's say.
[9:16][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"You don't think they'll let me repaint it and dedicate it to Hobbs, right?
[9:16][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[T'lena] Fvadt
[9:16][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"It's a good machine.
[9:16][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Ristovski... one thing at a time.
[9:17][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Mark it in the log. Crewman Hobbs was a damned hero to the end." *He eyed his new toy.
[9:17][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[V'tira] I have contact with Command
[9:17][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"wow...according to my readings that entire time loop only lasted 1.21 seconds of linear time."
[9:17][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"...You're shitting me.
[9:18][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"I don't suppose it's appropriate for us to tell them to stick that exercise so far up their ass they can taste it?
[9:18][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"No sir...we loswt almost no time at all.
[9:19][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[T'lena] Well thats odd
[9:19][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"Doctor, I during that got a message from myself, which could mean that it is possible while I am alive
[9:19][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He sighed.* "Alright... guess I should go tell Compton what we've gotten ourselves into.
[9:19][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[T'lena] I can't mark Hobbs as dead. System says he doesn't exist in federation systems
[9:19][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"...What?
[9:19][DOIC]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*somewhere in time
[9:20][DOIC]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] Look I told you where I am from and you gotta get rid of that damn crystal
[9:20][DOIC]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Tanaka] shove the crystal out an airlock
[9:21][DOIC]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[Hobbs] And me
[9:21][DOIC]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[tanaka] Take him to the brig. While I think
[9:21][DOIC]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:{hobbs] Figures..
[9:21][DOIC]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*and the credits roll
[9:21][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"Maybe he got picked up and recruited by the temporal people
[9:21][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"it is possible that i because of Temporal investigations doing. If Hobbs stayed with the Powell and went back to their time..
[9:22][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[T'lena] Maybe
[9:22][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"if that is the case we may never know.
[9:22][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Well, honestly, I prefer to think he made it, got a name change and became highly successful.
[9:23][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:checks her charge statu
[9:23][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He frowned a bit, then reached into his pocket for the data crystal.* "Well, what am I supposed to do with this, then?
[9:23][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[T'lena] Wait
[9:23][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Well, fuck me.
[9:23][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"It's still here?
[9:23][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[t'lena] he said he was member of a merchant ship
[9:23][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[t'lena] I checked starfleet records
[9:24][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[T'lena] yeah here his is. Calvin Hobbs, SS Merriweather
[9:24][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Well good. Does he have a sister in this iteration?
[9:24][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[T'lena] Its docked at the citadel. His sister is Jessica Hobbs. The captain
[9:25][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Guess I have a delivery to make... and some bad news to deliver." *he sighed.
[9:26][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Fuck, man..
[9:26][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:gets a rare smile on her face "I got another message
[9:26][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He tucked the crystal back into his pocket, looking at the others somberly for a moment.
[9:26][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"What is it now?
[9:26][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"calvin's voice, if you got this, it worked
[9:27][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"Just wish I could reply and tell him we are fine thanks to him
[9:27][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"He knows.
[9:28][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"He pulled it off. Hope he enjoys the 23rd century.
[9:28][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"unfortunately communications is only one way in this case...
[9:29][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Now if you'll excuse me... I have to find a reason why we should definitely get a few extra hours before we have to show up to our exercise." *He turned and started off the bridge.
[9:29][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:"gonna come up with a drink and name after him
[9:29][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[T'lena] Marcus
[9:29][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He paused.* "Doc?
[9:29][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[t'lena] Just log out found out we had a small outbreak of Saurian flu
[9:29][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Tell them we got our calibration all out of whack, it was my mistake.
[9:29][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Oh, that works too.
[9:29][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[T'lena] Takes 3 horus to screen and cure the whole crew
[9:30][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[t'lena] Mandatory remedy is 6 hours sleep
[9:30][DOIC1]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"You're the best, doc." *He smirked and went to the ready room to make the report.
[9:31][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"is suarian flue fatal?
[9:31][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[T'lena] Only to Lizards
[9:32][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"what if you only have a little bit of lizard dna?
[9:32][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"...Ezri. Do you have lizard DNA?
[9:32][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"um...no.
[9:33][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[T'lena] Ezri No one has the Sausrian flu
[9:33][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*He narrowed his eyes at the trill.
[9:33][DOIC1]Ezri Tegan@Demoncheru:"oh I get it...
[9:33][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Right... I'll go hand my shift off to Kara and get a drink. Thanks, Doc.
[9:33][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:moves over to Bore "Thank you for saving me back there, that was rather close
[9:34][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:"Sure thing. We were already short one new guy, losing two would look just careless.
[9:35][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[T'lena] Well i have to fake an outbreak
[9:35][DOIC1]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*she headed down to sick bay but decided to stop a tthe ready room first
[9:35][DOIC2]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[t'lena] *chimed it
[9:35][DOIC2]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"...No, we're not really sure how it came aboard, but we did have a few new crewmen board when we stopped by the Citadel... sure the doc'll get it all sort---
[9:35][DOIC1]Sarah Wynn@awendr:nods her Bore, before walking off to recharge and think about what to put in a "hobbs
[9:36][DOIC2]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Ah, I'll have to put you on hold just a moment, Captain Cousins." *He hit a button.* "Come in.
[9:36][DOIC1]Bore Ristovski@bulgariandragon:*Bore returned the nod and headed off to rest.
[9:36][DOIC2]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*t'lena stepped in* "Oh is that Captain Cousins.
[9:37][DOIC2]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Compton was busy tonight. Want to make your report to her now?
[9:37][DOIC2]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:"Sure.
[9:37][DOIC2]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He hit the button again.* "Sorry about that Captain, I was just getting an update from Doctor T'lena.
[9:37][DOIC2]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Cousins] "Right. So... saurian flu, doctor?
[9:38][DOIC2]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[T'lena] Infection vector was likely food brought on board for the non mammals. As you know captain its symptons are mild in mammals so we need a full crew roationa of cycle rest after antivirals
[9:38][DOIC2]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[T'lena] I could probably do half the time if we are needed and we coudl fight right now if we had to but. This plays it safe
[9:39][DOIC2]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:[Cousins] *She frowned slightly, but nodded her head.* "No... play it safe, by all means. I'll see about rescheduling the exercise, we'll meet up again on it when you're certain the danger has..
[9:39][DOIC2]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:passed.
[9:41][DOIC2]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Thank you, Captain... we'll keep you in the loop. Manta out.
[9:42][DOIC2]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:"I have a small confession to make Marcus.
[9:42][DOIC2]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He looked at her.* "What's that?
[9:43][DOIC2]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[T'lena] I knew Hobbs wasn't suppose to be here
[9:44][DOIC2]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[t'lena] And i let him get access anyway
[9:44][DOIC2]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He tilted his head slightly.* "What? How? And... why?
[9:44][DOIC2]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[t'lena] Eirene told me
[9:44][DOIC2]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[T'lena] She just told me to trust Hobbs.
[9:44][DOIC2]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"...When we were on the Citadel picking him up?
[9:45][DOIC2]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[t'lena] yeah appeared to me and said that when transfering the medical supplies
[9:46][DOIC2]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He frowned for a moment, then leaned back in his chair.* "I see." *He paused another moment.* "Well. I trust your judgement... and it paid off. And it's not like Eirene's lead us astray before.
[9:47][DOIC2]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[t'lena] I just didn't want to keep it from you
[9:47][DOIC2]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[T'lena] Now i do have to go fake an outbreak so
[9:47][DOIC2]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:*He nodded.* "Yeah... and I have to get as much sleep as I can cram into... what did we have, twelve hours?
[9:48][DOIC2]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:[t'lena] yes
[9:48][DOIC2]DGM Bragi@Captain_Rien:*she headed out
[9:49][DOIC2]Marcus Blaine@liorexu:"Good..." *He muttered, watching her go as the scene closed.*
