Ens Nicole Weis: Hiay Adam
MajorAZinthys: haven't started yet
LMajAdamDrake: Sweet!
Lt TKirr: Hello, Admiral.
VAdm Blackthorne: Hello everyone. Sorry I'm late, the
time slipped right away from me.
Ens Nicole Weis: Happy Birthday Adam!!
Lt TKirr: Mm.. sounds like something I'd do.
LMajAdamDrake: ::Grins:: Thank you Nikki.
Ens Nicole Weis: youre welcome
Lt TKirr: Birthday? It's your birthday?
Congrats!
EnsAaron Markus: Happy B-day...
CptKetchum: ::wheels in a overly large cake::
VAdm Blackthorne: Happy Birthday.
MajorAZinthys: So what are you now? 6?
CptKetchum: ::With 43 candles::
Ens Nicole Weis: (w) with a chick inside
EnsAaron Markus: ::laughs::
Lt jg D Ellis: Happy Birthday
7:45 PM
LMajAdamDrake: Yes, Zinthys, I'm six. And, yet, I'm
still more mature than you. Imagine that.
LMajAdamDrake: :-p
EnsAaron Markus: Ohhhh!
Ens Nicole Weis: ohh, harsh
MajorAZinthys: Dude, real six year olds are more
mature than you.
LMajAdamDrake: And, still, that puts you where?
EnsAaron Markus: ::smirks::
VAdm Blackthorne: OK, children, calm down.
VAdm Blackthorne: Let's get started.
MajorAZinthys: ::blows into whistle::

VAdm Blackthorne: Alright, so last week we escaped
from the inside of Starbase 16 after cloaked crystal ships had followed us in.
Amythyst Grey has joined this chat.
LMajAdamDrake: {{AMY! ::waves::}}
Ens Nicole Weis: ((hi amy))
Amythyst Grey: >Happy Birthday, Brad!<
EnsAaron Markus: ((Evening Amy))
VAdm Blackthorne: Unfortunately, the Starbase isn't
doing so well, and Atlantis and Discovery have taken fairly heavy damage.
VAdm Blackthorne: Questions?
7:50 PM
LMajAdamDrake: {{Thanks. }}
CptKetchum has left this chat.
VAdm Blackthorne: >> Hi Grey. <<
EnsAaron Markus: ::raises hand::
VAdm Blackthorne: Markus?
EnsAaron Markus: Did we destroy or get rid of the crystal ships?
VAdm Blackthorne: Negative.
EnsAaron Markus: So they're still hanging around...
LMajAdamDrake: ::raises hand::
VAdm Blackthorne: And our latest attempt to talk to
them was oh so close to working....
VAdm Blackthorne: Drake?
EnsAaron Markus: ::nods::
LMajAdamDrake: Can we QUIT takin' heavy damage? My
engineers just can't take all the pressure. They're practically dying down
there. ::grins::
VAdm Blackthorne: ::Zaps him:: No whining.
EnsAaron Markus: ::remembers he WAS here last week, just showed
up late::
Ens Nicole Weis: ::laughs as Adam is
zapped::
Ens Nicole Weis: ::raises hand::
VAdm Blackthorne: Weis?
Ens Nicole Weis: Can you zap Adam again,
please?
Ens Nicole Weis: ::smiles innocently::
LMajAdamDrake: ::jaw drops::
VAdm Blackthorne: ::zaps Weis:: No.

hell is going on! Status reports from all subdivisions, now!
VAdm Blackthorne: +Drake+ Engineering, we need warp
power and we need it soon!

7:55 PM
LMajAdamDrake: ::frowns and curses himself
internally:: +Blackthorne+ We need three hours, sir.
VAdm Blackthorne: +Drake+ We will be dead in three
hours if we don't have warp, Mr. Drake.
EnsAaron Markus: ::doesn't like the sound of that report::
Ens Nicole Weis: ::gets started on yet
another patient
Ens Nicole Weis: ::
Lt jg D Ellis: ::muttering about how rude it was
to add in a new sound just when they had the scree down::
LMajAdamDrake: +Blackthorne+ Mr. Leirone's
rerouting of power to the shields compromised the integrity of the warp
engines. We couldn't generate a stable warp field even if we tried.
WillFMarlowe: Nelson> Over here. ::helps a man with a
broken leg to one biobed, while a woman with a dark goose egg on her forehead
gingerly sits on another::
Ens Nicole Weis: Nelson, how many do you
got?
MajorAZinthys: <<That's right. Blame it on
the guy who's not here>>
WillFMarlowe: ::begins another regeration sequence on a badly
burned arm::

physically possibl.e
VAdm Blackthorne: Markus.
LMajAdamDrake: Axelrod!
EnsAaron Markus: <<Leroine's spirit> ::thwack's
Drake::>>
VAdm Blackthorne: Coordinate with Discovery and
prepare a course away from this area at full impulse.
Ens Nicole Weis: ((LOL))
WillFMarlowe: Nelson> These two, plus a Caitian with a
concussion. We'll probably see more in a bit, Doctor. You'll have plenty to do.
LMajAdamDrake: {{::pulls out his ghostbuster garb
and sucks in Leirone's spirit:: Don't touch me.}}
EnsAaron Markus: ::nods:: aye sir...
VAdm Blackthorne: Toward the nearest Starbase, and by
then, we will have a method to make sure nothing follows us inside.
LtJGAxelrod: ::walks up behind Drake.:: You
hollered?
Lt jg D Ellis: ::tossing her orange pealings down
the hole she made when she spilled the beaker::
Ens Nicole Weis: I know that, but if you
need any help, let me know
Lt TKirr: ::monitors internal damage, along with
the Swiss-cheese Starbase::
Ens Nicole Weis: ::resets a person
shoulder::
VAdm Blackthorne: Zinthys. If we travel close enough
with Discovery, can we extend our shields around each other for extra
protection?
EnsAaron Markus: ::contacts Discovery's helm via text comm. and
relays coordinates and speed::
WillFMarlowe: ::hands off the regenerator tool to Meirill and
moves on to set the newly-arrived broken leg::
MajorAZinthys: Well, yeah, but... both sets of
shields are pretty weak.
VAdm Blackthorne: But both of them together would be
stronger.
MajorAZinthys: Discovery's may as well not even be there.
VAdm Blackthorne: Do what you can with what power you
have.
VAdm Blackthorne: T'Kirr.
Lt TKirr: ::glances up.
MajorAZinthys: Yessir.
Lt jg D Ellis: ::readjusts some of the coding::
This might work as long as they don't pop up with yet another tone
VAdm Blackthorne: I need a way to detect whatever kind
of cloak that is they use.
8:00 PM
MajorAZinthys: ::Coordinates with the Discovery to
share shields::
EnsAaron Markus: ::receives Discovery's acknowledgement::
They're ready sir.
LMajAdamDrake: Axe!?
Lt TKirr: ::nods once:: I will review the sensor
logs and find out what I can.
MajorAZinthys: ::Visibly flinches as he watches the
protection sytematically decrease around the Atlantis::
VAdm Blackthorne: Let's get out of here then. There's
nothing more we can do for Sixteen.
EnsAaron Markus: ::moves closer to Discovery for shield
sharing::
EnsAaron Markus: Aye, sir. ::engages::
Lt TKirr: <<No bumper cars now,
Markus>>
MajorAZinthys: Markus, keep us as close to them as
you can without bumping.
EnsAaron Markus: <<::snaps fingers::>>
VAdm Blackthorne: ::Watches the escape pods streaking
away from SB16:: Even they have warp.
MajorAZinthys: Aye, but they have no weaponry.
EnsAaron Markus: Yes sir. No problem.
Lt TKirr: ::gets to work at her station,
bringing up sensor logs of the ship's decloaking::
LMajAdamDrake: Jeddin prepare to disengage all the
shield generators from their primary systems and prepare to initiate the
backups.
Ens Nicole Weis: :;finishes resetting a
guys arm and moves to a woman with a cut up face::
LMajAdamDrake: Jeddin> ::nods:: Aye, Major.
VAdm Blackthorne: An engine with a seat or two on the
front.
EnsAaron Markus: ::gets a little bit closer::
Lt jg D Ellis: ::starts to once again upload the
new program into the UT::
Lt TKirr: <<Who cares about Engines on a
pod, Zinthys is on a shieldless float with all the weapons he wants>>
LMajAdamDrake: +Axelrod+ Drake to Axelrod.
EnsAaron Markus: *::gets the ship a little closer that is::
<<>>
MajorAZinthys: <<YES!!>>
WillFMarlowe: ::examines a few patients who've been treated
and releases a couple::
Ens Nicole Weis: ::finishes repairing the
skin on the womans face, leaving no scarage::
Lt TKirr: ::studies the sensor logs, and runs a
couple of tests::
VAdm Blackthorne: T'Kirr, specifically I need a way to
be sure they're not limpeting on our hull like they've done twice now.
Lt TKirr: Understood, Admiral.
LMajAdamDrake: P'Tel!
VAdm Blackthorne: If we make it to the nearest
Starbase, they won't even let us in the door after this incident without a way
to be sure.
LMajAdamDrake: P'Tel> Yes, sir?
Lt jg D Ellis: +Bridge+ Not that it'll do any
good but the translation upgrade is done. So now if you want you can warn them
that we're going to kick their as.... I mean defend ourselves
LtJGAxelrod: ::Is standing right behind Drake.::
Yes?
Lt TKirr: ::frowns::
LMajAdamDrake: I need you to get down the
anti-matter storage pods and cycle their activation matrices. With them we have
no power. Run the procedures as fast as humanly possible.
Ens Nicole Weis: ::begins to scan a person
for internal bleeding;:
8:05 PM
LMajAdamDrake: ::scared by Axe's presence:: Hey,
Axe, do you remember your quick warp engine activation protocols from the
academy?
MajorAZinthys: Perhaps another attempt at
communication is in order, then?
EnsAaron Markus: ::smirks::
VAdm Blackthorne: ::watching SB16 get smaller on the
viewer::: And hopefully by the time they finish chewing through that, we'll be
far enough away to be out of notice.
Lt TKirr: ::pauses in her study::
LtJGAxelrod: ::Thinks.:: Yes and no.
MajorAZinthys: Unless they already have.
VAdm Blackthorne: +Ellis+ That's good to know. We will
try to talk to them again soon, but right now we're not drawing attention to
ourselves.
EnsAaron Markus: ::watches his little viewer on his panel to
watch ahead::
LMajAdamDrake: The whole disengage everything and
cold shut down the core, then restart it and reinitialize. Takes about an hour
to do it properly?
Lt TKirr: ::resumes her simulations::
Lt jg D Ellis: +Bridge+ Understood
Ens Nicole Weis: Sir! we have an internal
bleeder here
LtJGAxelrod: Or so.
WillFMarlowe: ::looks up and walks over to Weis:: Where?
LtJGAxelrod: If everything goes well.
WillFMarlowe: ::looks over her shoulder at her tricorder::
LMajAdamDrake: But you remember the procedure?
Lt jg D Ellis: ::switches gears and starts to
play around with the gamma rays and the bits of crystal they have::
Ens Nicole Weis: ::motions to the man
laying on the biobed:: here, i scanned him, it's in his stomach area
Lt TKirr: Admiral, I believe I've found a way to
detect the crystalline cloak.
EnsAaron Markus: ::runs a quick diagnostic to make sure helm is
up to par for the hopeful warp engagment::
WillFMarlowe: May I? ::motions to her tricorder::
Ens Nicole Weis: of course
LtJGAxelrod: Parts of it, I can remember only up to
a certain point.
VAdm Blackthorne: ::turns to T'Kirr:: That was fast.
WillFMarlowe: ::takes the instrument from her and taps at it
a few times::
Ens Nicole Weis: ::stands to the side::
Lt jg D Ellis: So we need to crack'em before we
toast'em.. Lets see what we can do about that
Lt TKirr: I've discovered the cloak eminating a
static field.
EnsAaron Markus: ::looks puzzled::
VAdm Blackthorne: How far away can you detect it?
Lt TKirr: A low percentage is normal on the
surface of a hull, but by monitoring for a slightly elevated level, we can
detect it.
8:10 PM
LMajAdamDrake: OK, what do you remember? I remember
the decoupling of the dilithium matrix and the separation of the power relays
from the EM net. That right?
EnsAaron Markus: ::mumbles to self:: Static....??
Lt TKirr: ::looks at Blackthorne:: This scan
does not work unless it is against the hull.
LtJGAxelrod: Sounds right.
Lt jg D Ellis: ::gets a sudden thought:: I
wonder.. ::starts working on an idea::
Lt TKirr: We would not be able to detect... a
large ship, like the one we fought within the Starbase.
VAdm Blackthorne: Alright, that's a good start.
LMajAdamDrake: OK. Then we disengage all the
couplers to the nacelle's power systems and the navigational deflector.
WillFMarlowe: Oh, I see. ::gives it back to her:: He probably
took a tumble in Engineering when the ship was hit. Stabilize him with a
subdermal regeneration unit and keep him from moving overmuch.
VAdm Blackthorne: That would theoretically stop the
smaller ships from riding in with us, but the larger ship must have followed
very closely behind us. We need a way to stop that, too.
Ens Nicole Weis: yes sir
MajorAZinthys: How do we know there are not some on
the hull now?
LtJGAxelrod: Uh-huh/
Lt TKirr: I will investigate our options.
EnsAaron Markus: ::notices a slight misalignment in the helm
sensors and begins to correct it...only to discover another one::
VAdm Blackthorne: Can you run one of the scans now to
check the hull?
Lt jg D Ellis: +Drake+ Lt. How much do you know
about diamond tipped drill bits?
LMajAdamDrake: Then we shut down the core using the
emergency overload ejection systems. Right?
EnsAaron Markus: ::corrects the first one and starts on the
second when a third appears::
Lt TKirr: I already have. No sign of enemy
vessels.
EnsAaron Markus: Wow...that's odd.
LMajAdamDrake: +Ellis+ Basic Academy information,
Lieutenant, why?
WillFMarlowe: ::offers a slight half-smile:: But you knew
that, didn't you? Don't be afraid to trust your own judgment. God knows I hated it when some pompous Commander at Starfleet
Medical treated me as if I'd never handled a hypospray before.
WillFMarlowe: ::moves away to another patient::
Lt jg D Ellis: +Drake+ Would it be posable to
attach a bit like that to a trop.?
EnsAaron Markus: ::runs a more in depth diagnostic while making
sure that Atlantis and Discovery don't bump::
Ens Nicole Weis: ::smiles at Will's back::
I need to start believein in myself here
LMajAdamDrake: +Ellis+ It's complicated, but I'm
sure we could do something like that.
VAdm Blackthorne: Good. We really can't take another
encounter.
8:15 PM
EnsAaron Markus: ::sees the big problem and works on correcting
it...::
WillFMarlowe: ::nods absently at Weis' comment, absorbed as
he is in the process of treating a turned ankle::
Ens Nicole Weis: ::Moves pateint to a side
bio bed out of the way and begins to stablize him::
Lt jg D Ellis: +Drake+ I think it would help up
get the opening we need to flood them with Lt. TKirr's ga,,a rays
VAdm Blackthorne: Zinthys, how many of the Starbase's
escape pods launched?
LtJGAxelrod: You've lodt me there.
Ens Nicole Weis: ::working slowly as to
not cause any unneeded complications::
ltjghawke has joined this chat.
LMajAdamDrake: +Ellis+ It would take some time, and
that's time I don't have.
Lt TKirr: <<My *what* rays?!>>
EnsAaron Markus: <<::Laughs::>>
MajorAZinthys: ::Checks the console:: 85%
WillFMarlowe: Nelson> ::doles out analgesics with her
hypospray as a final trio of patients wander in::
Lt jg D Ellis: (lol. we ran out of gamma rays
last week I had to use the yellow box brand)
LMajAdamDrake: ::walks away, thinking out loud::
Then we reinitialize the start-up sequences and they reset to default settings
because the core isn't running and the systems are disengaged.
Lt TKirr: ::searches for any detection advantage
by reviewing the sensor logs, but so far finds nothing::
VAdm Blackthorne: Given the population level of the
station, that sounds like that most people were able to get away.
LtJGAxelrod: <<Lost*>>
MajorAZinthys: ::Nods:: It does. Unless everyone
took their own individual pod.
LMajAdamDrake: So then after that we reconnect all
the power to the navigational arrays and the warp nacelles. Reset the EM relay
and the grid then reconnect it all to the core and restart it - all the while
recoupling the dilithium matrix.
Lt jg D Ellis: +Darke+ Understandable.. I'll see
if the Major would have someone look into fitting the weapons.. Thanks
VAdm Blackthorne: So they're basically chewing on an
empty starbase right now.
LMajAdamDrake: +Ellis+ I apologize for that,
Lieutenant.
MajorAZinthys: They can have it.
Lt TKirr: <<Mm.. crunchies.>>
Ens Nicole Weis: ::after stablizing the
man, moves to another pateint::
VAdm Blackthorne: We obviously could not stop them.
LtJGAxelrod: That's a ll a blank.
Lt jg D Ellis: ::works a little more on the
diamond bit tipped trop. idea::
WillFMarlowe: ::discharges a few more patients--mainly
Engineering personnel--when he's sure they can function on duty::
MajorAZinthys: There's that, too.
8:20 PM
VAdm Blackthorne: +Sickbay+ Blackthorne to sickbay.
WillFMarlowe: +Blackthorne+ Marlowe here.
VAdm Blackthorne: +Marlowe+ Casualty report, doc?
LMajAdamDrake: ::taps a PADD and tosses him::
Jefferies tube J Alpha 218. Decouple the dilithium matrix. Hurry.
Ens Nicole Weis: ::starts to look over a
burnt person::
Lt jg D Ellis: +Zinthys+ Major, I'm sending you
an idea that might give our weapons an extra hand ::sends the data::
LMajAdamDrake: Langston! I need you to prepare to
disengage all the power relays to the warp core. Don't ask questions, just do
it. ::tosses another PADD to someone else::
Lt TKirr: ::runs through more logs, cross
referencing::
EnsAaron Markus: ::fixes big problem and realigns helm sensors::
LMajAdamDrake: Hughes! Power down the power to the
nacelles and the navigational array when I give you the word.
MajorAZinthys: +Ellis+ I'll look into it.
LtJGAxelrod: ::Catches the PADD and heads for the
Jeffries tube.::
WillFMarlowe: +Blackthorne+ Little more than a dozen
injuries, only a few serious ones. No fatalities as yet.
Lt jg D Ellis: +Z+ thank you sir.. ::goes back to
tossing stuff down the hole::
LtJGAxelrod: ::reads over the PADD as he walks.::
WillFMarlowe: +Blackthorne+ Are we scheduled for more action
anytime soon?
VAdm Blackthorne: +Marlowe+ I'm quite happy to hear
that, doc.
Lt TKirr: <<Axe, you're supposed to miss
the PADD, let it shatter, step on the shards, and visit Marlowe.. he doesn't have
enough to do>>
VAdm Blackthorne: +MArlowe+ Unfortunately, I can't
really guarantee that we're out of the woods yet.
LMajAdamDrake: Kendrick! Set up for the complete
deactivation of the EM relay network.
Lt TKirr: ::glances up at Zinthys, wondering what
Ellis is up to::
LtJGAxelrod: <<I could accidentally trip and
break it.>>
WillFMarlowe: +Blackthorne+ I see. If there's nothing else,
sir . . .
Lt TKirr: <<There you go. Now you're
thinking>>
VAdm Blackthorne: +Marlowe+ Of course, back to your
patients. Blackthorne out.
VAdm Blackthorne: No letters to write home today.
LMajAdamDrake: +Axelrod+ Begin the procedure when
you're ready. Tell me when you've reached fifty-percent completion.
Ens Nicole Weis: ::looks at will:: did he
say what i think he just said?
Lt TKirr: ::froms several ideas and tests them,
but they fail::
MajorAZinthys: ::looks over Ellis' idea::
WillFMarlowe: And what would that be?
EnsAaron Markus: ::looks confused at the Admiral's comment::
LMajAdamDrake: Standby all Engineers.
Lt jg D Ellis: ::still has no idea where the
whole leads but knows it has to be a mess by now:: I should cover that with a
rug or something
LtJGAxelrod: <<Or I could huck these grenads
down the hall at that group of Ensign, serverely injuring them, and sending
them to Sickbay. I mean...>>
Ens Nicole Weis: that we'll proabably be
getting more pateints
8:25 PM
Lt TKirr: Admiral?
MajorAZinthys: +Ellis+ Lieutenant, are you
proposing we shoot giant diamonds at them?
Lt TKirr: <<asks inquiringly>>
VAdm Blackthorne: Yes, Lt?
Lt TKirr: <<your statement>>
VAdm Blackthorne: We didn't lose anyone today.
LtJGAxelrod: +Drake+ Aye. ::Gets to work on the
procedure.::
VAdm Blackthorne: Therefore there will be no letters
to parents to write.
Lt TKirr: ::shows understanding:: Yes... it is
fortunate.
Lt jg D Ellis: +Z+ No Sir.. I'm proposing we fit
the tips of the torpedos with a diamond cutting bit that will crack their hull
on impact
VAdm Blackthorne: Which is the thing I hate doing the
most.
Lt TKirr: <<...Do torps spin?>>
EnsAaron Markus: ::nods::
EnsAaron Markus: <<No>>
WillFMarlowe: Maybe. ::examines a compound fracture, then
patches up some of the damaged muscle tissue::
VAdm Blackthorne: ::sits down in his chair::
Ens Nicole Weis: ::shakes head and
continues working::
VAdm Blackthorne: ::watching the now-tiny starbase on
the screen::
MajorAZinthys: +Ellis+ So you propose we fit drills
to our exploding torpedoes?
WillFMarlowe: ::looks up:: And by that I mean, of course,
"probably so."
Lt jg D Ellis: (no but if you use the diamond tip
of a bit and just hit it with a hammer to it'll spilt the gem)
Ens Nicole Weis: ::nods:: I figured as
much
WillFMarlowe: ::attaches an osteoregerator unit to the
newly-set bone::
Lt jg D Ellis: +Ellis+ No sir.. Just the bits..
The force of impact will be more then enough to crack the hull giving Lt. TKirr
the opening she needed to gamma ray their insides
VAdm Blackthorne: ::listening to the conversation that
Zinthys is involved in::
LMajAdamDrake: ::taps his foot impatiently::
LtJGAxelrod: ::Follows the steps on the PADD one by
one, carefully.::
Lt TKirr: ::listens as well, thinking about the
success rate::
MajorAZinthys: ::Looks at Kirr:: How big of an
opening would you need?
Lt jg D Ellis: ::is waiting for TKirr to say
it'll never work::
Lt TKirr: No smaller than fourty eight
centimeters.
Lt TKirr: ....Seventeen if we are not in motion.
Ens Nicole Weis: ::repairs damaged cells
of the burnt patient::
WillFMarlowe: ::busies himself with repairs on more of the
surrounding tissue as the little device blips and blinks::
8:30 PM
MajorAZinthys: So if we attatched diamond bits of
that approximate size, would it function for your purposes?
LMajAdamDrake: +Blackthorne+ Engineering to bridge.
VAdm Blackthorne: +Drake+ Blackthorne here.
Lt TKirr: The bit wouldn't have to be that
large.
LMajAdamDrake: +Blackthorne+ We've got a plan set
up, Admiral, it's going to take about an hour but we're going to need to cut
all power to the engines and switch all other systems to auxilliary back-ups.
Lt TKirr: It may work.
WillFMarlowe: Watz> ::shifts uncomfortably as Marlowe
tinkers with his leg:: So how long 'till this heals, Doc?
EnsAaron Markus: ::ponders the possibility of stopping the ship
suddenly, long enough to make the hole needed:: Nah....
Lt TKirr: ::sounds interested::
VAdm Blackthorne: +Drake+ What is the plan?
EnsAaron Markus: ::hears the part about shutting down the
engines, and doesn't like it...::
Lt TKirr: ::runs some calculations on her
terminal::
ltjghawke has left this chat.
LMajAdamDrake: +Blackthorne+ Cold stop of the warp
core. We separate all the the power systems from the main power net and
reinitialize them and then reset the core. Things should resort to their
default settings.
MajorAZinthys: +Ellis+ Let me discuss this with
T'Kirr, and we'll see what we can come up with.
VAdm Blackthorne: +Drake+ And I suppose it's
impossible to leave the impulse engines online?
Lt TKirr: <<Why not just hit the Power
button. =P>>
WillFMarlowe: ::removes the regenerator unit and drops it
into a small tub with several other soiled units:: A few days, assuming you
come in regularly for further regeneration treatments. ::sutures the gash in
the leg caused by the . . .
Lt TKirr: <<hard reset the ship,
woo!>>
Lt jg D Ellis: +Z+ Yes Sir..
EnsAaron Markus: <<::lol@TKirr::>>
WillFMarlowe: . . . broken bone:: Over there, if you please.
Meirill will help you.
LtJGAxelrod: <<You'd think with all the
technology, it would be as simple as that>>
EnsAaron Markus: <<::nods::>>
Ens Nicole Weis: ::rechecks on some of her
patients and sends the healthy enough ones out with orders for them to return
once things calm down::
LMajAdamDrake: +Blackthorne+ They draw from the
core, sir. We could go to thrusters only.
8:35 PM
LtJGAxelrod has left this chat.
EnsAaron Markus: We'd be going verrrry slow.
MajorAZinthys: Thrusters. Yay.
Lt TKirr: ::looks up from her calculations,
having sent them to Zinthys:: The bit would have to be of these proportions.
The trajectory would not matter, but the velocity would have to be...::taps::
VAdm Blackthorne: +Drake+ We would be without impulse
engines, weapons, or shields, for the next hour.
MajorAZinthys: Shoot, we don't even use those
inside starbases.
VAdm Blackthorne: ::half smiles:: Hopefully they still
work.
Lt TKirr: <<We could dodge spacedust,
that's it =P>>
EnsAaron Markus: <<LOL>>
MajorAZinthys: And would an explosion from a
quantum torpedo be sufficient to generate that velocity?
Lt TKirr: ...fourty kilometers per second.
LMajAdamDrake: +Blackthorne+ It's either that or no
warp for three, sir.
Ens Nicole Weis: ::smiles at her next
patient with a big huge massive bump on the head::
VAdm Blackthorne: +Drake+ Get started then.
VAdm Blackthorne: Markus, coordinate with the
Discovery for all-stop.
VAdm Blackthorne: Also, find out when they'll have
warp.
Lt TKirr: ::blinks:: It would need to be
traveling at that velocity *before* it explodes.
Ens Nicole Weis: ::scans first for a
concusion::
LMajAdamDrake: +Blackthorne+ Sir?
EnsAaron Markus: Aye, sir.
MajorAZinthys: I don't like that part of it.
Wouldn't the explosion erase whatever work the diamond bits do?
VAdm Blackthorne: +Drake+ Yes?
Lt TKirr: Not if the torpedo impacted before it
exploded.
Ens Nicole Weis: You have a small
concussion but its nothing to be worried about

Ens Nicole Weis: Ensign> okay ma'am
Lt jg D Ellis: ::places said rug over acid caused
hole::
LMajAdamDrake: +Blackthorne+ Which procedure, sir?

8:40 PM
LMajAdamDrake: +Blackthorne+ Sir, do you want me to
do the cold start or the three hour regular procedure?
VAdm Blackthorne: +Drake+ The cold start.
MajorAZinthys: Do you think it will work,
Lieutenant?
WillFMarlowe: ::moves on to another biobed, where a woman
with a slightly burned hand sits:: This looks like an acid burn. ::scowls and
spritzes it with a disinfectant/analgesic spray::
LMajAdamDrake: +Blackthorne+ Aye, Admiral.
Ens Nicole Weis: Ensign> ::winces and
tries to pull away some::
Lt TKirr: ::furrows her brow slightly:: There
are too many variables... there is a possibility it would work, but I cannot
give a percentage of success.
Lt TKirr: But I believe it is worth a try.
EnsAaron Markus: ::gets a response from Discovery:: Admiral,
we're all set for the all stop, and they'll have warp power about the same time
we will, max....

ensign and keeps poking::

set in the middle of a crisis.
VAdm Blackthorne: ::Sees that the Starbase is but a
tiny dot on the screen:: One more hour.
EnsAaron Markus: Reading all stop on both ships, sir.
MajorAZinthys: +Ellis+ I authorize you outfit six
torpedoes with your diamond bits. We will test them out to see if they work.
VAdm Blackthorne: Markus, what's the nearest starbase?
WillFMarlowe: Woman> One minute I'm cleaning candy off a
desk, and the next I've got the fucking Acid Baths of Asulta raining down on
me.
Lt TKirr: <<LOL, a certain science person
we won't mention, who knocked over beakers and petries>>
