Mission 2: Possibility of more Romulans

[Jorgen Salen]

"Ambassador, help Agent Guiss to trace the source of that transmission.  How far away is the source, and so forth.  Give me more facts.

"Ensign Movack, I want you to assemble an away team to include yourself and Mr. Guiss.  You are to take as many as 3 other agents or security officers and prepare to beam aboard a Romulan installation as yet to be named.  Tell me when you've selected your team and we'll proceed once we have more information."

[Cymidei Cymeinfoll]

Cymeinfoll and her team waste no time moving to the engineering station on the ship. Pressing some buttons on a controll panel they started doing scans of the systems to find where and what the main systems controlls are.

Moments later, she instructs the engineering team to the appropriate locations to begin in the system take-over and to find out how to run these systems and to reprogram in command codes.

On her communicator she sends a transmittion to inform the Captain of her team's progress.
"Sir. Engineering away team is in the process of the take-over of systems controlls. Sir"

[Lewis Drake]

*Major Drake came aboard the bridge from the turbolift*

Hello, Major Drex, I have volunteered my services to help on the ship. Where do you think I would be of most help? I am skilled at most stations and I have been trained at them all.

[Walter Collians]

Walter stepped onto the bridge and stood next to Drake.

"You called Major."

Drex : "You and Major Drake are going to board Khazara Station, along with some crewmembers from the SIV Dragon. Drake detected weak lifesigns, so you should take along whatever equipment you might need."

"Are they here yet, cause if that's true, we need to get moving as soon as possible."

Drex : "They'll transport over any minute now."

OFF: Sven, are you still around? http://expansionfleet.sparks.priorweb.be/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

[Jonathan Mason]

Yes you are moderator, and as such you have the power to close topics and edit old ones, you can even delete posts if needed.

OFF: Would you consider being the acting captain until the Return of Mr. Drex?
unfortunately I don't have a crew for you yet, but I ask you to be patient.

[Nish Laverz]

Nish relaxed a little said "thank you Sir I will do my best" then turned and walked over to the Science station and started to get on with the job at hand.

[Sven Guiss]

May: Mr.? you should be aware sir, that I am female!, can't you see that ?. *realizes that she is yelling at her superior officer* I apologise sir. Now, about those course analysis. These are not normal Romulans Commander. They are rebels of the Romulan Star Empire and as such they do not conform to the rules and methods that would noramlly follow.

Guiss: *Sitting at the helm monitoring the course set* Commander, I have planned an escape course as a contingency plan. For now, you should know that we have arrived at our destination. I will begin by placing the ship in a standard holding postion sir.

OFF: I was facing writers block the past couple days, sorry.  I wonder where Nish and everyone else are. They were posting fine in the beginning but now they seemed to have disappeared http://expansionfleet.sparks.priorweb.be/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('>

[Movack]

"Commander, I can't get this distress signal any clearer,"
something around the ship is interfering with the signal."

"Awaiting your next order sir"

[Movack]

"Commander, Sir, I believe I indicated that earlier, I suggest we upgrade our security and combat posture"

-A- Ens Movack to Away Team-A-

"I will meet you all on the bridge, from there we will do a deck to deck sweep for any rogue or solo romulans."

-A- End Transmission-A-

-A- Ens Movack to Captain-A-

"Captain, I request, we start scanning the ship for lose romulans, and either beam them to the brig, or send us their coordinates so we can go and capture them."

-A- End Transmission-A-

With my phaser drawn, I make my way to the bridge.  I get to the bridge where I meet the away team.

-A-Ens Movack to Captain-A-

"Captain, Sir engineering is coming online with a few of the systems,  I will commence scans for any other ships, then I am going to engage the cloaking device so that we aren't spotted."

-A- Movack out- End Transmission -A-
-A- Ens Movack to  Engineering -Commander Cymeinfoll-A-

"Sir, I suggest we get the cloaking device up and operational and cloak this ship, before any other ships from the romulan fleet come looking for it."

"Engage Cloaking device, once it is operational"

-A- End Transmission-A-

[Sven Guiss]

by my calculations we shouldn't be near Starphoenix base for another 16 hours.

[Walter Collians]

Drex : "Thank you Sven. Fine Mr Drake, good luck over there."

Walter : "Well you never can be to careful. I'll get my gear from Sickbay."

Walter went to Sickbay, while Lewis continued to the transporter room.

OFF: Oh :biggrin:

[Jorgen Salen]

Captain Drex: "Please have my best wishes and highest regards.  I'll keep the ship ticking over as much as I can."

OFF: General Mason: I understand the good Captain has 'Net issues, so I'll be glad to step in while he's delayed.

[Jorgen Salen]

"Thank you, Mr. Guiss.  Take us in close orbit to the station and have the transporter room stand by to beam the away team aboard asap."

Salen turned quickly to address his new Science officer.  He nodded and said, "Relax Commander, we're not at red alert just yet.  Welcome aboard.  Please take your station and assist the transporter room to cut through the Romulan shielding so we can get a transporter lock on the away team."  Salen sat back in his chair for a moment, then joined Laverz at the science station.  "If you could, Lt. Commander, change your rank avatar to FSS standard, like mine, please."  More loudly, he addressed the bridge and said, "Computer, mark the time in the log: I am now appointing Lt. Cmdr. Laverz to acting first officer."

"Mr. Brodie, raise the shields and take us to yellow alert.  I want everyone on their toes.  The away team has been silent too long- we may need to intervene."

OFF:  Nish: It's good to have another regular poster to make the stories lively.  I look forward to your contributions.  I appointed you to acting XO because, until the captain returns, I'm acting captain.  You outrank everyone else at the moment, and you've been posting well, so I'm going to push you to your limits, if necessary, for the story's sake.  Ok?

*walking down the corridor towards Salen's quarters*
*he rings the chime*
Salen: Come!

Guiss: *walks in along with Tim Tenari, Tom Anderson, Dr. Shelly Cassidy*
Evening sir, are you sure you want to hold these meetings in your quarters *he said as he was smiling*
