Lt Sean Darnell :
Well, we've stopped. Reasons unknown at this time. Still attempting to ascertain
[●] Commodore Mardel Connor :
Do we have shields?
●● Lt. Flower Sheme :
checking now
Lt Sineade Darnell :
::looks over at CJ:: Well... lets see what little hiccup we have now ::smiles and smells her flowers::
[●] Commodore Mardel Connor :
=/\= Engineering, CJ, what's going on down there?
●● Lt. Flower Sheme :
affirmative sir we still have shielkds
○●● Lt Cmdr CJ Langley :
=/= Commodore Mardel Connor Nothing out of the ordinary detected, Commodore. We are running red alert protocols. I'll inform you if anything turns up
[●] Commodore Mardel Connor :
Then raise them, Lieutenant. I don't want to be sitting here with our butt hanging in the wind.
Lt Sean Darnell :
::looking over the reports from the various departments..most of whom are just saying.. we stopped ::
[●] Commodore Mardel Connor :
=/\= Keep me informed, CJ.
●● Lt. Flower Sheme :
:::raises shields::
○●● Lt Cmdr CJ Langley :
=/= Commodore Connor =/= Will do, Commodore
[●] Commodore Mardel Connor :
Full scans, Sheme. I don't want anything getting to us.
Science, I need you to run scans on the particles, see if anything was released that could cripple us.
○●● Lt Cmdr Teaya Starr-House :
::whispers to Mardel:: this is how it's been with some crew.
[●] Commodore Mardel Connor :
Ops, make sure we have enough power for necessary systems.
●● Lt. Flower Sheme :
:scans everywhere::
Lt Sineade Darnell :
::turns to CJ,:: So far I am not seeing any problems ::looks over the anti-matter flow monitors::
[●] Commodore Mardel Connor :
::Looks at Teaya:: What?
● Ensign Oelh Joy Tsuruchi :
Yes ma'am. ::starts to isolate the particles with her scanners::
○●● Lt Cmdr Teaya Starr-House :
Some seem to have lost their resolve.
[●] Commodore Mardel Connor :
I see. Well, let's see if I can light a fire under them.
○●● Lt Cmdr Teaya Starr-House :
I have seen more mistakes with them knowing they would be tested compared to when they were actually under pressure. ::Said quietly::
○●● Lt Cmdr CJ Langley :
=/= Commodore Connor=/= Commdore..... the dilithium chambers have been damaged, and started an matter/anti-matter breach. We are taking steps to contain. I can't tell how, but I suspect sabotage by the timing and the two systems effected. Nothing else is showing any change or damage at this time.
Lt Sean Darnell :
::continues to monitor the ship:: Commodore, still no reason I can determine for our unexpected stop
●● Lt. Flower Sheme :
Nothing around us Sir
Lt Sineade Darnell :
::swears under her breath as she sees the anti-matter levels going crazy:: I'll suit up and work on the matter/anti-matter, Sir
[●] Commodore Mardel Connor :
::Frowns:: =/\= Security, I need all decks searched, we have a possible saboteur on board.
Ops, runs scans, who was in engineering that didn't belong.
○●● Lt Cmdr CJ Langley :
::to Darnell:: Take Batters and Hitters with you..... keep in touch and let me know it goes
Lt Sean Darnell :
I smell a rat with SFI written on it! On it Commodore ::begins running the scans and sees that Flower was there not too long ago and frowns, but keeps running the scans and checking the logs::
Lt Sineade Darnell :
Yessir! Come on lets get this done! ::Hurries off with Batters and Hitters to get the job done as quickly as possible
● Ensign Oelh Joy Tsuruchi :
Ma'am It looks like the area was flooded with anti matter it has collasped the warp bubble.
Lt Sean Darnell :
Commodore, so far only authorized personnel, if you count Lt Sheme.
[●] Commodore Mardel Connor :
::Frowns:: I see. What can we do to counter this, Tsuruchi?
::Scoffs:: I seriously doubt that Lieutenant Sheme knows how to sabotage those systems. So keep your eyes open. There has to be some thing.
●● Lt. Flower Sheme :
And I only went down to look for sinny
● Ensign Oelh Joy Tsuruchi :
::bites her lip:: We could fire the phaser and ignite it but we risk cooking ourself..or ram scoops?
○●● Lt Cmdr CJ Langley :
::bent over a console watching the matter/anti-matter cloud that is forming; knows that Darnell, Hitters and Batters will be able to contain and disperse the reaction::
○●● Lt Cmdr Teaya Starr-House :
Lt. Sheme breathe
●● Lt. Flower Sheme :
::breathes:: right sorry
[●] Commodore Mardel Connor :
::Looks at Tsuruchi:: You are science...I trust you to come up with a solution that won't harm us or space around us. Use your....ingenuity.
Lt Sineade Darnell :
::grabs a suit and her tool belt and crawls into an access tube:: Hitters, watch yourself.. one wrong move and we both evaporate... Batters, keep an eye on those readings and tell me when they level out
[●] Commodore Mardel Connor :
=/\= Nightwing, I have a special job for you.
Lt Sean Darnell :
::looks over at Flower:: I know, and you are sort of authorized to be there.
○●● Lt Cmdr NightWing :
;;makes sure everything is where it needs to be in case there is a large number of casualties come in;;+Mardel+ Yes boss lady what is it?
● Ensign Oelh Joy Tsuruchi :
Actvate the ram scoops we can use the anti matter
Lt Sean Darnell :
::turns back looking over at Joy:: what if they are working on it.. won't that put the work crew in danger?
[●] Commodore Mardel Connor :
=/\= I want you to go over the records of everyone who joined our crew since we left Earth. I want to know all you can tell me. Don't leave a single stone unturned. Understand?
○●● Lt Cmdr NightWing :
+Mardel+ Yes ma'am, I'll do my best including their locations if I need to do so
● Ensign Oelh Joy Tsuruchi :
::Activate ram scoops:: We are sitting ducks
Lt Sineade Darnell :
::sees a lot of discharge and swears under her breath as she begins to shut down overloaded chambers::
○●● Lt Cmdr CJ Langley :
+Sineade Darnell+ The auto containment system is holding the breach. You three need to separate the anti-matter and matter..... that's what out tools are for. Just be careful.
○●● Lt Cmdr NightWing :
;;gets busy going over all the records of the new people and finding their location to put undetectable tracers on them for Security to follow while getting all the records together of their idiosyncracies , interests, strengths and weaknesses into a report for the Commodore;;
Lt Sineade Darnell :
+CJ+ Understood.. and working on it Sir.
HItters take the second section there and shut down the flow, I'll get this section.
○●● Lt Cmdr NightWing :
;;starts sending the records to the Commodore's seat for her to look over as well as her own report on each of them;;
ACTION: Sensors all over the ship start to go down, inside and out. And communications are disrupted so that decks/departments/etc can't speak to each other.
●● Lt. Flower Sheme :
What the claws!!!
Lt Sean Darnell :
::looking over all the scans and logs over the past few hours as to who has been in and out of engineering and then it stops:: Losing Sensors, and Coms Commodore
●● Lt. Flower Sheme :
I concur with Sean.
○●● Lt Cmdr CJ Langley :
::all hell is breaking loose in ME as systems all over the ship are going wonky::
● Ensign Oelh Joy Tsuruchi :
trying to reroute comms through alternate systems
[●] Commodore Mardel Connor :
Then I guess we need to find an alternative, don't we? And we are NOT going to panic or lose our heads during this. Calm, rational, thinking is how we will get through this. So steady on and think up positive ideas of what we CAN do, not what we can't.
Lt Sineade Darnell :
::carefully begins to close of the matter/anti-matter flow slowly so she doesn't accidentally evaporate herself::
Lt Sean Darnell :
Caommodore, we need to position crew at critical areas for communication relays, and assign runners if necessary

FREEZE
●● Lt. Flower Sheme :
I could use my nose to search the decks. But how would I report?
Lt Sean Darnell :
::AA::
○●● Lt Cmdr NightWing :
popsicle
●● Lt. Flower Sheme :
Paws
Lt Sineade Darnell :
::AA::
○●● Lt Cmdr CJ Langley :

[●] Commodore Mardel Connor :
AT EASE
Lt Sineade Darnell :
::AE::
Lt Sean Darnell :
::ae::
●● Lt. Flower Sheme :
At ease::
○●● Lt Cmdr NightWing :
melts;;
○●● Lt Cmdr CJ Langley :
;;at ease::
[●] Commodore Mardel Connor :
Good job tonight everyone. You each have something you need to do before next week. Science needs to figure out how to clear out the antimatter without harming the ship, crew, or space. Ops needs to figure out how to deal with the sensor and coms outtages. Sheme needs to figure out how to keep the ship safe without knowing if the shields are still up or not. Engineering needs to fix....a LOT. Nightwing needs to go over the personnel records, seeing if there are any anomalies. Teaya needs to keep morale high.
Any questions?
○●● Lt Cmdr NightWing :
;;rh;;
[●] Commodore Mardel Connor :
Yes, Nightwing?
●● Lt. Flower Sheme :
No Sir
○●● Lt Cmdr NightWing :
can I put any anomalous crewmen in stasis till we get SFI's @$$ Whupped ?
Lt Sineade Darnell :
So I am just doing what I normally do LOL
[●] Commodore Mardel Connor :
No, Nightwing. I have something else planned for them.
○●● Lt Cmdr NightWing :
ok as you will
[●] Commodore Mardel Connor :
Time between sims will depend on logs done this week. IF you haven't had the chance to do the eval with Starr, do it this week. I am watching and reading.
Be safe, be happy, write logs, and see you next week.
