This is Eginnering.

=A= Skon to Black =A=

Excellent work. Keep me updated as to the status of repairs.

=A= Skon out =A=

Black seals the panel he opened and went to Lupins. He re-connected wireing and activated the console. The lights came on to there full brightness.

=A="Black to bridge, main lighting is online. That should make searches easier"=A=

Will and Zentox approached Marotek.

"Cmdr, could you please allow are guest to use are comm system."

"The better we work the faster you can be there. I'm looking forward to becoming Chief Engineer of the ship. I'm getting to know this old bird."

"What would I do without you, well I can see what you are doing without me. Don't you work on everything, let others work too."

Detrell thinks for a second

"Computer, how long has Miss Morrow been on the Skytoucher." he sais

Computer: "22 hours, 45 minutes and 23 seconds"

Detrell looks at Morrow and then grabbs her arm to help her stand up.

"What did you say about mingling with the crew in the Celtic Corner? Shall we?"

He motions her to follow him.

Several hour later the warp core was lighted. The hum of it was refreshing to Black. Engineering was cleaned from debris.

Black taped his comm badge

=A="Black to Skon, Engines are repaired thought you should know."=A=

Black gets up.

"I'm going to head for the bridge to fix some of the systems up there. You might want to head for the main computer. Its damaged fairly bad"

communications? uh, sure  *he says with a little hesitation* he can use it.

Will jesters toward the comm panel.

"You can call your people through that console Zentox."

Will and Marotek walked away.

"Do you have a problem with this sir?"

OFF: Finally, I think I've got everything right. Sorry for the multiple garbage posts.

*Enters Engineering, a smile spreading across her face as she takes first look at it. Her facade is one of amusement, finding all the repairs, wires everywhere, to be quite hilarious. She retains her professional attitude by only stifling her laugh and biting down a smile.*

"Seems we have our work cut out for us, Mr. Black."

There are Many Things I should Say First:
- Let Me Check Crew Roster
- You Need to be assigned to a ship first
- This is The Wrong Topic

So Go Try And Apply For This Ship Here At The Admiral's Office (Board) and Then Ill Check My Crew Roster.

Black came into engineering and began to work on the impulse drive area. He dusted off a panel and took it apart. Lighting up the rest of the room.

This Ship Is Full, Sorry.

*Hears comm*
"Speak of the devil...."
*Leaves for Bridge*

I´ve received this message from Adm. Vorak, while I as at Avalon Starbase:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Mr/Ms Fredcesa, an engineering Assisant place is available on the USS Skytoucher . You would be given the rank of Lieutenant and report in, in the related topic.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
So, honored, I do accept the rank of Lieutenant and I´ll keep waiting for my Captains´s orders.
I´m a vulcan male, born in a Vulcan colony, B'razi-ll; I post-graduted in telecommunication´s electronic engineering.

"I believe so. With main power back it should be done soon. I'll get on it sir"

Black takes his repair kit and heads for the Launchers

OFF**Now ya tell me skon ....You coulda told me that before i took my lazy butt down to main engineering .....

So when does Lauren get here **

OFF: Good to see you, Black. Just in case you guys haven't been following things on the station, Commander Janeway has informed the Admiral of our repair status:

"sir their weapons arent fully functionel and they can only reach warp 7"

Just in case someone contacts the ship to ask about status, I wanted you all to know this. Of course, repairs could be farther along than she knows. Your call...

*The Chief Engineer finally walks in to main engineering already 3 hours late*

Hello, fredcesa I see that you are my new assistant.

to start, how about a little test.

Our warp engine maximum speed has been reduced to  warp 8.8. Reason unknown. I'd like to see if you can do anything about it.

OFF: Welcome to the Skytoucher I hope this isn't too tough for you? :P

*The klingon took a minute to gather all the info*

Agreed, take who you need to do this inspection

*Enters Engineering*
"Mr. Black, I've been sent to aid you down here, what needs to be done?"

=A= Skon to Black =A=

Excellent, Mr. Black. It seems that repairs are proceeding ahead of schedule. If you can spare a moment, I would like you to join me in sickbay. The Doctor may have found something important.

=A= Skon out =A=

(Edited by Skon at 10:31 pm on July 25, 2004)

OFF Again: Okay, to avoid more confusion and clutter, I just closed a bunch of forums that are no longer in use.

*points in two directions...*

"...and that would be where?"

Welcome to the USS Skytoucher
I am Commander Rasmain, Tactical/Security officer and I see that you are our new Engineering Assistant. Commander Marotek will be pleased to have an assistant .

OFF: If you read the mission we are now undergoing, you can participate at any moment

*Marotek was working at another station across the room*

Yes Lieutenant, what is.. ohh  *notices that Fredcesa had finished the assignment*  Ahh, so what did you discover?

*Looks up from what she was doing, her eyes magnified by the spectacles she was wearing to see the nanocircuits better, giving her a rather nerdy look.*

"That not be required, Admiral. Please, mingle with the crew in the celtic corner; surely you have an old friend who partakes in that crew."

"I'm working on getting impulse back. You can work on stripping the panels and rerouting power to mine so i can get control to it and activate impulse"

OFF2: Balkazar, I think Mr. Black was still on the bridge, but that's okay, when Lauren gets down there, you can join her team.

*Morrow pulls away from Detrell and smiles, waving her hands infront of her.*

"Enjoy yourselves, boys. There's work to be done. I'm not much of the party-goer anyhow. And don't you worry admiral, I promise I'll break to get sleep in a couple of hours."

Will whispers back.

"I understand, but this might be are only solution for are situation."

Will approached Zentox.

"Perhaps we should go back up to the bridge."

=A= Skon to Black =A=

Understood. Keep Mr. Lupin and Mr. Cano updated. I will have to leave to ship soon to conduct Captain Burma's funeral.

=A= Skon out =A=

excellent,

*leans over to whisper to Will*

problem? no, not really, ok maybe a little.

FredCesa, turning to his peers asks aloud:

-Who volunteers to follow me in this inspection?

=A= Bridge to Engineering =A=

Mr. Black, What is the status of your repairs?

=A= Bridge out. =A=

Black enters catching the conversation

"Mind if i join you? I've been on the job near a week no sleep or anything. If shes leaning i'm going to need medical attention"

Black laughed jokingly

Zentax looks at the controls for some moments, to figure out how they work, as they are different from Loxian controls. Then, he pushes some buttons and a few minutes later, the distress call to his people has been sent.

"It's done," he says then, "I hope they will arrive soon."

**walks into main engineering**

I was sent down bye Commander skon.....He mentioned you needed help to repair the comm system?

Awaits orders**

"Well be my guest, but I'll let Hermes keep en eye on you!"

Detrell walks out the hallway and tries to find Mr Black, who seemed to have left already.

=A= Shipwide Communication =A=

We have been hit by another heavy Loxian barrage. All departments report damage.

=A= Bridge out  =A=

*Morrow hands Black a device usually used for minimal repair, in a mocking manner. She smirks slyly before going to the console and checking its condition. Returning to the core chamber shortly after, she removes the panel next to Black's, bends down, and begins to rapidly reconnect singed circuits. She glances in his direction, and smiles as she says, "Coils are ruined, so guess what we get to do..."

*Lupin quickly runs into engineering and finds Black*
"Lt. Black, Commander Skon needs a report on the status of engineering, because of our downed communications I am sent to relay it back to the bridge by hand"

*Detrell walks up to Miss Morrow, who was working on the main computer.*

"Goodday Miss Morrow, how are the repairs going? Maybe I can assist in your struggle "

OFF**Yea welll I never liked reading,,,,Never diod it in school neither

OFF**So when is this girl gonna be down I may as well start and hopefully not electrify myself

ON**Starts to fittle around with teh communications while waiting for Lauren....llalalalallalalaa....

*the computer sends a shock wave threw a few systems in main engineering and disappears* uhhh I dont think that was supposed to happen....*Goes and grabs the manual about fixing the communications*

TRies to fix the communications again....*1 hr later* uhhh.....*contacts skon on the bridge*....I think i may have did something right I think we got partial communications sir *Balkazar out*

OFF**im not a very patient person sometimes

Try The Evolution.

"Well Comms down as you know, and i'me about to loose all viewing for our screens so i need yout help."

The silence was louder than any sound that could be emitted in that room.

Perhaps, aware of the danger, no one repplied to FredCesa; the experienced crew had passed in the past thru several hazardous situations and an observer would realize that those people wished to test FredCesa´s courage, more than to show a bit of fear.

At this point, it is importatnt to remind that humans are not fully aware of a vulcan mind logical decision processing; as vulcans are fully logical beings, feelings like fear, courage, anger and hope are meaningless, since those "emotions" are combinated responses from the human heart ant past memories.

FredCesa was aware of all that; his Space Academy´s exams degrees would show a exceptional, yet logical, discipline in front of a unknown -and-possibly-hazardous situation.

Again, to clarify if he was going to face danger alone or not, he stated:

- Should I take it as a test or a group´s work? I ´won´t wait any longer.

His voice was heard with no shadow of emotion, wish would turn is phrase into an expression : "... any longer!!"

=A= Skon to Black =A=

Excellent work on repairs, Mr. Black, but I must ask you to "shift gears" for just a moment. The Loxians have asked me to preside over a memorial service for Captain Burma, and I need to know the status of the photon torpedo launchers. If we are to conduct the service properly, we should fire an empty shell casing along his shuttle's last known course. Will we be able to do this?

=A= Skon out =A=

*Begins to work with impulse*
"We should at least have 1/4 impulse speed.....about the speed to go like a turtle"
*Laughs*
"You know, I've worked with repairs and all so much since I came on board, I could be an engineer. But i'd rather get this bird back in space and take my place on the bridge for once in a good while"

The young newcomwer, Lt. Fredcesa, following the vulcan tradition, replies with in a-near-zero-degree emotion:
-Absolutely, Sir. First, I´ll try thru the computer a fast check on depletors and the anti-matter conveyor; that will supply me data to analyse whats going on..."
Again, with controlled hurry, FredCesa types several keystrokes on the closest computer terminal available.

"Some security fail-safes are not fully available to me.I guess the computer was not advised of my new rank on this ship...Nevertheless, I´ll warm she!"

The computer start to check the depletors and the anti-matter conveyor,  when, sudenly, a small warm in the display advise catches FredCesa attention.

"Commander"- he says - " I´ve found what´s happening with the engines!"

*Walks to the nearest console*
"What have we got to do yet? I don't know a thing about engineering no matter how much I've been told to work with it. I'd be of more use at ops"

I am willing to work in engineering

OFF: lol...I expected that you would have read the earlier mission posts where Black explicitly said he had come back to the bridge That being said, I believe Commander Lauren to make her way down there pretty soon.

The vulcan, turning its head - just to be polite and to do not express what would be, in human terms, a little awareness - says:
"The computer is showing a warm signalling both unknown conditions"- and adds"...that I wouldn´t say of simple nature, Sir"

"The last Level 5 diagnostic detected a small leak of energy and now... this leak is increasing"

"This leak obviously is slowing us down to this warp level of 8.8"

After, in vulcan terms, would be described as a wise wait, but it took a human blink of eyes FredCesa continued:

"To provide an increase on the warp level, I´ll change the energy path to another circuit and I´ll order the computer to a deeper level diagnostic routine"

Typing on the computer console, FredCesa changed the path of energy and the people present saw the warming being turned-off in the computer display.

"Starting Level 4 diagnostic" - mumbles Fredcesa.

The warm female voice of the computer confirmed the order: "Level 4 Diagnostic ordered. Seeking parameters for warp engines... Found and Started!"

The Level 4 Diagnostic finished and again, that voice was heard thru the room:

"Unknown leak of energy on Sector 23, Deck 30. Sugest inspection"

FredCesa turns again, this time with a full moviment to Cmd Marotek, and asks

"What now, Sir? May I ask for an in-site inspection?"

"Indeed"

Black go's to the Warp Cores main panels. Taking the side off exposing the flickering insides.

=A= Skon to Black =A=

Please have Mr. Lupin return to the bridge immediately.

=A= Skon out =A=

ok
