FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
Good evening everyone. I trust everyone had a good weekend. Tonight will be the start of Lt. Argeneau's sim plot. Show her the same respect as you would myself or Cmdr. Queen. The floor is all yours Lt.Cmdr. Argeneau
Ens. T. Queen / Lt. H. Argeneau :
>.> Um so not use to this side of it um everyone read the briefing? any questions?
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
Please keep questions to sim plot. No additional chatter. Thank you.
Ens Juglans Regia :
I read, but no questions yet
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Yes.
Ens. T. Queen / Lt. H. Argeneau :
Um since there are no questions I guess as the captain says lets rock and roll
Computer :
begin sim
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
::Back in her lab, having missed all the excitement with her fight with security. Grumbling over how some people can be so inconsiderate.::
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
::grumbling at his station on the Bridge, his earpiece still in his ear::
Laurel Lance :
::working her way back to engineering, still scanning as she goes:: If someone wants to fill me in.... they will
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
::Takes a look at her workbench and then frowns. The device wasn't active, as it was completely taken apart, but some of the pieces seemed to have a glow to them. She ran a scan over them:: By the Prophets!!! That ape made me miss something. How am I supposed to get answers when I'm always called away from my work. ::Reading the scans taken::
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Smoke> What in the hell was that?? ::moving over to the main Engineering console.::
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
What in Sam Hell is going on?
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
++Bridge, did something happen in the last five minutes that I missed down here?++ ::She asked, curious what she had missed::
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
Keptin, I am not getting any Starfleet signals and ... ::suddenly notices the forward viewport:: Vait! Vhere is ze station?
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
I have no idea. +All+ All departments report.
Ens. T. Queen / Lt. H. Argeneau :
::Thea looked up at Laurel as she joined them.:: Um from what my scans are reading the devices we brought onboard reacted with our engines. but I do not know yet what caused the black hole.
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
Report::bellows to the bridge:::
Ens Juglans Regia :
:: Still helping security for the moment, perhaps adding a checkbox to his career ::
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
What do you mean there's no station.
Laurel Lance :
::enters and moves over to Thea:: DI you guys see that? Lightening and then a ... a... vortex
Lt. Persia Lionmane :
::Flipping threw documents at this point trying to figure out what nikki is talking about yet seeing everything with her own eye's::
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
::pulls up a sensor feed:: He's right, Captain. The station is ... gone!
Ens. T. Queen / Lt. H. Argeneau :
The vortex I believe is called a black hole or something I think. ::Thea said with a slight smirk though was trying to figure out what had happened.:: WE may need to talk to Science to see if they can help.
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Smoke> +Bridge+ We're working on it down here, Commander.
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
(Regia is our helmsman, right? Is he at station on the Bridge? He had been helping Morgensen with some security work.)
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
++Bridge++ I have no idea what is going on. I was dealing with security destroying my labs. What did I miss? ::Asking again::
Laurel Lance :
It's still a vortex. For a second I thought the ship was exploding. I mean.. have you ever heard of lightening in space?
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Smoke> Yes.
Ens. T. Queen / Lt. H. Argeneau :
Plasma storms are not unheard of in space. ::Thea added as well.::
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
::stares at the viewport a minute, then grunts, frowns, and puts his eyes back on his console::
Computer :
several crew members with minor injuries make their way into sickbay. mostly bumps and bruises from those who weren't able to hang on before the bumpy ride through the vortex.
Laurel Lance :
::shrugs:: I've seen plasma storms. But this came out of nowhere and hit us
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
::Decides it doesn't need her attention and turns back to the enigma that was the device. Focusing on the parts that had been glowing but now were dimming back to normal::
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
Targus, there's nothing from any Starfleet vessels? There must have been 3 or 4 at the station, wasn't there?
Ens. T. Queen / Lt. H. Argeneau :
I'm more concerned with how it happened. ::Thea frowned going over the scans.::
Lt. Persia Lionmane :
Man on man are we in trubble if we don't figure this out.
Ens Juglans Regia :
(Sorry, misread the brief)
Lt. Persia Lionmane :
::Scratching her ears while she continues flipping threw all her resorces::
Computer :
no starfleet channels of any kind are found, the only channels coming in are Vulcan as the closest, romulan, klingon, and cardassian as earlier mentioned.
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
+Kai+ Not sure yet. We're trying to get information at the moment.
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
::Keeping her scanner going, looking at it and the device, comparing what her eyes see and what the scanner sees::
Ens Juglans Regia :
:: Enters the bridge ::
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
+kai+ Bring that device to the bridge. Yesterd!
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
++Bridge++ On my way.
Computer :
as Kai scans the devices she'll notice that they reacted with the engines of the ship as well as the plasma storm.
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
No-ting from any Starfleet channels. Vulcan, Romulan, Klingon, Cardassian, yes, but no-ting Starfleet! I am looking, yes?
Ens Juglans Regia :
:: Takes a seat at the helm ::
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Smoke> Why don't you two help me with doing a diagnostic of the engines. We can at least check that.
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
I want all those devices on the bridge. Who has the third one?
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
::Gathers the device and puts it in a carry case and takes it with her, but locking her workroom door behind her, setting the security again::
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
Mr. Regia, could you do me a favor and confirm our location? Where is DS9?
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
(( Science, Engineering, Intelligence. ))
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Engineering has the other.
Computer :
Mr. Regia finds that there is no trace of DS9
Ens Juglans Regia :
I am scanning for Deep Space Nine, but we are where we are supposed to be.
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
::Enters the lift:: Bridge. ::reading the scans again and frowning:: This makes no sense in manner.
Ens. T. Queen / Lt. H. Argeneau :
::Thea gave a nod and starts a diagnostic on the engines.::
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
+Ens. Queen+ Bring the device from DS9 to the bridge.
Ens Juglans Regia :
It is not on short range or long range sensors.
Laurel Lance :
::Nods and moves over to one of the stations to begin diagnostics:: I tell you, that was some weird plasma storm. Sorta of makes me wish I had stayed on Earth
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Smoke> Hopefully it didn't mess up any of our systems, at least, not to bad. ::points over to a secure locker for Thea where the device is::
Lt. Persia Lionmane :
This is weird man.
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
If ve are still at DS9, then ::waves at the viewport:: vhere is ze big station, eh?
Ens. T. Queen / Lt. H. Argeneau :
+Bridge+ On my way captain. ::Thea left Laurel to do the diagnostics while she delivered the device.::
Lt. Persia Lionmane :
::Checking location to see if she can find any answers::
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
::Exits to the bridge and looks around a moment. Her eyes moving to the view screen and then moving to a station and logging in so it's science now, and feeding the data from the device into the station:: Captain, here is the device. ::Holding out the carry case:: But it's in pieces, and has been for hours. However, it seems to have many layers to it's programming, almost like a chameleon changing to suit some purpose I haven't been able to discover yet.
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Was it powered on before whatever just happened happened? ::looking to Kai::
Laurel Lance :
::continues to run diagnotics on the engines:: You know, that vortex, or black hole, formed right next to us. I wonder where it put us?
Ens Juglans Regia :
Our location and time is correct Captain.
Ens. T. Queen / Lt. H. Argeneau :
::Thea exits the lift not long after Kai with the device from Engineering.:: Here's the device from engineering.
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
::stands and walks over to Regia at the helm, places a hand reassuringly on his shoulder:: Okay, Ensign, we believe you. So ... where did the station go, then?
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Smoke> Not sure, Ensign. I'm sure they are trying to figure it out. I mean we can always tap in and see.(edited)
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
::Takes the case from Kai:: yes well apparently even in pieces it's working with the others somehow to wreak havoc.
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
::snatches his earpiece out and flings it into the wall in front of his station:: I have no-ting! No Starfleet comms anyvhere!
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
No, it was not. ::Looking a little insulted, not by the question but by the fact she hasn't been able to solve it yet:: First it was a recording device. Then it was used to seal us in the holosuite. Then it was a self-destruct device to cause damage. Now it's interacting with the engines, somehow. I have never heard of such a device ever created by any known race.
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Alright, alright, calm down Targus. Maybe our comms are down.
Lt. Persia Lionmane :
::Jumps at nikkis actions and sighs in mild frustation but relief:: Nikki....Don't do that.
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
No, Komandur, dat iz ze ting! Ve are getting comms, just ... no Starfleet comms.
It makes no sense!
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
+Lance+ Are ship comms down? ::obviously other than internal::
Lets just wait on Engineering to make sure, Lieutenant.
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
I have ze other device here. It vas off too, and I agree vith Kai, ze program keeps changing itself.
Ens Juglans Regia :
There are no signs it was ever here. No distortions indicating a cloaking field. No ion emissions indicating movement. No warp trail, in case they installed warp coils.
Laurel Lance :
::looks up and replies:: +Queen+ Sir I have just run diagnostics, communications are running within normal parameters
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
::sets the case on her seat and takes the device from Thea and places it in the case with the other.::
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
::moves over to Nikki:: So, we're picking up comms, but no Starfleet ... and DS9 isn't where it should be.
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
::Moves over to scan the com panel and shakes her head:: Whatever is controlling those devices, on or off, has somehow linked to the Roddenberry. I wouldn't be surprised to find the ship is completely out of our control.
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
Targus where is the device you had?
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Alright, so double confirmation for you, Targus. Comms are working fine. So..hmm.
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
::picks up the device from beside his station and carries it to the Captain:: It is right here, Keptin.
Lt. Persia Lionmane :
::Mumbleing under breath:: "This is why I liked the old ship better because new things have new problems"
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
:: looked at Kai:: That is nothing I want to hear.
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
Regia, you said our timestamp checked out? We didn't get some weird time displacement, right?
Laurel Lance :
::Looks a little concerned:: This doesn't sound good. Lt. Smoke, what is going on?
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
::Goes back to her science station on the bridge and calls down to stellar cartography and has a conversation with them:: Captain, I can report that there is no Federation presence in this sector, at all.
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
:::adds the other device with the other two::
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
::looks at Kai:: Dat is vhat I have been saying! No Starfleet anyvhere!
Computer :
With the three devices so close together creating a kind of distortion that causes an outline of DS9 outside the ship, but not registering it on sensors and static from comms messages trying to come through that are starfleet but are not clear in anyway.
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
::puts it back in the case and closes it::
Computer :
as the captain replaces the device the distortion hum starts again and the ghost image returns to the space outside the ship.
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
So we see the ghost of the station and they see the ghost of us, but we can't actually communicate with each other.
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
You look pretty solid to me, Laurel. Do you want to come over here so I can poke you and test it?
Lt. Persia Lionmane :
Let it sit till it hums again captain then pull out a diffrnt one.
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
I have heard stories of the Otherworld ... and how it is possible to pass between the worlds. But ... how could those devices penetrate the Veil like that?
Laurel Lance :
::gives Lionmane a raised eyebrow look:: Well, I do. ::Moves to a station and opens it for engineering:: By the way, engines were offline for some reason, ::Chuckles at the poke comment:: I think I'm good.
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Except we're getting communication signals from others.
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
I don't have the answer to that, Adon.
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
::points at Ollie:: Exactly! Ve are not in some ghost dimension, ve have comm signals.
Lt. Persia Lionmane :
Oh shut it you two I have an experiment to make here.
Laurel Lance :
Have you listened to them? The signals I mean. Not the ghosts.
Lt. Persia Lionmane :
Captain take out a diffrent device from the case and lets see what happens.
Ens Juglans Regia :
:: Looks back at Lance ::
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Try the Vulcan's Targus.
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
I have been listening. They are normal signals. Vulcan scientists commenting on some spacial anomaly, Klingon scouts reporting on ze enemy, Cardassians talking about some new law, Romulan Element rituals ... normal stuff.
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
::takes out a different one:: Same scenario Lt.Lionmane
Lt. Persia Lionmane :
Hmm.
Okay then move that once behind this one. ::As she pointed to wich ones she was talking about::(edited)
Laurel Lance :
::listens and relays what's going on to Engineering so Felicity can hear as well::
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
Spacial anomalies, Klingon enemies, Cardassian laws, Romulan rituals. Could those be connected?
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Send a hail to the nearest Vulcan ship.
Lt. Persia Lionmane :
I suggest not doing that.
If we are in a diffrent time we won't get much help.(edited)
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Smoke> ::was listening and thinking::
Lt. Persia Lionmane :
Sometimes a problem is best delt with alone.(edited)
Laurel Lance :
::Looks at Persia:: And if they can explain what's going on, wouldn't that help us?
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
::looks at Persia:: Not different time ... different worlds. We'd be "ghosts", wouldn't we?
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
::Still working the problem::
Lt. Persia Lionmane :
They won't explain because they won't know what the hell we are talking about.
Computer :
PAUSE
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie :
::Pause::
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
::paused::
Lt. Persia Lionmane :
::PP::
Ens. T. Queen / Lt. H. Argeneau :
::paws:: x2(edited)
Lt JG Laurel Lance :
::PAWZD::
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
::paused::
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
::paws x2::
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
(Dang, that seemed to come up on us quick!)
Lt. Persia Lionmane :
(It's actrually a good thing it did I'm getting sore here)(edited)
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
[There's a man, going round, taking names..]
Lt. Persia Lionmane :
(And kicking ass)
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
Fantastic job Heather and crew!
Ens. T. Queen / Lt. H. Argeneau :
::blushes and hides::
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
Now for next week... There will be NO sim.
HOWEVER, we will continue on the 29th.
Laurel Lance :
::Pouts::
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa :
::whines::
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
::grumbles::
Lt. Persia Lionmane :
::Smiles:: Hopefully I get new cromebook for christmas because well this laptop is ooooof.
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
To many will be absent including Heather and can't run sim without her
Thank you again. Merry Christmas everyone and please stay safe.
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
::raises hand::
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
Heather do you have anything to add?
Ollie?
Ens. T. Queen / Lt. H. Argeneau :
Well @Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke has his hand up lol
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke :
Could do like we usually do, if people can show do impromptu xmas parteh.
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
Yes, I'm open to that.
Laurel Lance :
YES!!! PAR_TAY!!!
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
That is tentative then.
Party on the bridge.
Like it's 1999
Cmdr do you have parting words?
Seems we lost him in an airlock
●● Lt Nikosh Targus :
I didn't do it!
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix :
Okay then.... You know the deal....
