Capt_DevonCummings Evening everyone.
Matthew Edwards Good evening Captain
Capt_DevonCummings Sorry, was talking with CaptZak about something.
Looks like all we're missing is Seamus?
Questions about the brief?
Matthew Edwards No questions sir
❙❙ Karlie Waters None here
Ens Alexi Michelle no questions here
Capt_DevonCummings We'll start when we reach the graveyard.
LCARS Begin Sim
Capt_DevonCummings ::On the bridge, looking at the viewscreen.::
Ens Alexi Michelle ::standing at tactical scanning the ship graveyard::
Matthew Edwards ::looking at the graveyard on the view screen::
Capt_DevonCummings All scanners active...full sweeps.
Yellow alert, shields up.
Ens Alexi Michelle Scanning, Sir , Yellow alert, Aye:: set condition yellow and raises shields::
Capt_DevonCummings Helm. Ahead slow.
Matthew Edwards Weapons at the ready. Just in case
Ens Alexi Michelle Yes, Sir. ::puts weapons on Hot standby::
Capt_DevonCummings Scan for life signs, and any indication of technology.
❙❙ Karlie Waters ::quietly stands at science, reading instructions from the former science officer::
Matthew Edwards ::walks over to Science:: Anything on your end?
Capt_DevonCummings Action: The ship moves slowly through the beginning of the graveyard.
Ens Alexi Michelle ::scan for indications of tech, letting science scan for life signs::
Capt_DevonCummings ::Looks at the various ships, and their state.::
❙❙ Karlie Waters ::gets startled and growls. Notes the padds, looks at the scans:: I'm not finding anything
Capt_DevonCummings ::Down in engineering, the little droid we picked up at the station, starts to become agitated.::
Ens Alexi Michelle ::studies the scans carefully:: Looks like most of these have been stripped of anything useful.
Matthew Edwards ::sighs and nods:: Keep at it.
Capt_DevonCummings Action: The droid leaves engineering and floats to a TL and heads to the bridge.
Ens Gaavr :: Is somewhere ::
❙❙ Karlie Waters ::gets back to refreshing her memory, feeling like this is familiar to her::
Capt_DevonCummings ::Looks at Comms.::
::Wonders where Gaavr is.::
Ens Gaavr :: Feeling a bit woozy, making his way to the bridge ::
Capt_DevonCummings Action: The droid exits the TL and enters the bridge.
Sgt Major Calder :: Keeping a tab on the droid ::
Ens Alexi Michelle ::Looks over as the droid exits the TL and moves to protect the Captain:: Sir!
Matthew Edwards ::looks at the droid:: Looks who's here.
❙❙ Karlie Waters ::gets startled again:: aggh, why am I sooo jumpy... ::grumbles::
Capt_DevonCummings ::Wonders why it isn't still in engineering.:: Hello, my little friend. Why are you here?
Ens Gaavr :: Enters the bridge ::
Ens Alexi Michelle ::is not happy the droid has shown up on the bridge and it shows in her stance::
Capt_DevonCummings Droid> This...is...a bad....place...captain.
You can speak.
❙❙ Karlie Waters ::runs a diagnostic on the droid with her scans::
Matthew Edwards What is he saying?
Capt_DevonCummings Droid>Connected with....language banks..in computer.
Says this is a bad place.
Ens Alexi Michelle That it doesn't like it here. Which is of little surprise when you look around
❙❙ Karlie Waters ::tries scanning the internal and external with her science scans to see what she could find::
Capt_DevonCummings Action: Sensors pick up life signs from a wreak, ahead to starboard.
Matthew Edwards But apparently, he knows it better. ::looks at the droid:: What else can you tell us, little guy?
❙❙ Karlie Waters The droid seems to be functioning normal... Captain, I've got life signs on the starboard side.
Ens Gaavr :: takes his station ::
Matthew Edwards Life signs?
Ens Alexi Michelle ::looks at Waters and then returns to check her scans as well:: I confirm, to our starboard
Capt_DevonCummings Action: humanoid life signs.
Change course.
Ens Alexi Michelle They appear to be coming from that derelict vessel. ::indicates a badly damaged vessel::
Matthew Edwards Gaavr, try to hail them.
Ens Gaavr Aye, hailing...
Ens Alexi Michelle Captain, I would use caution. this may be a trap.
❙❙ Karlie Waters ::She hands Gaavr a hypo::
Capt_DevonCummings Understood, Ensign.
Action: Ares approaches the ship. No answer to hail.
Ens Alexi Michelle ::concentrates scans on the vessel::
Capt_DevonCummings It took a lot of damage.
Droid> Careful...captain.
::Pats the droid.::
Ens Gaavr No answer on all channels.
Ens Alexi Michelle ::looks at the droid:: Seems he shares my concerns. Interesting.
Ens Gaavr :: takes the hypo :: Yes?
Matthew Edwards ::pats the droid::
Capt_DevonCummings Can we isolate the lifesigns?
Ens Alexi Michelle ::scanning the vessel for damage::
Matthew Edwards ::walks over to Tactical::
❙❙ Karlie Waters ::scans to determine exactly where the life signs are::
Ens Alexi Michelle ::glances at Edwards as he approaches:: I do not believe this ship is as disabled as it looks
::can't pinpoint a reason but it just feels wrong::
Capt_DevonCummings Action: The life signs are isolated behind what appears to be the bridge.
❙❙ Karlie Waters ::She looked up at the Captain:: The life signs appear to be behind, what could be the bridge. I'm not sure any more than that so far.
Capt_DevonCummings You think their trying to lure us in, ensign?
Ens Alexi Michelle Yes, Sir. I do. Like the proverbial fish on the hook
Matthew Edwards It is possible
Capt_DevonCummings Gaavr, try hailing them again, all frequencies.
::Looks at Waters.:: Can you determine how many?
Ens Alexi Michelle ::Keeps looking at her scans as she talks:: While it appears to have sustained damage, I am still unable to find any that would render it inoperable
Ens Gaavr Aye, standard hail again. :: does so ::
Capt_DevonCummings Action: Between 10 to 20 individuals.
❙❙ Karlie Waters :: looks into the scans:: Looks like 10 or 20 or so individuals...
They might not be able to get to the bridge? Like something could have happened?...
Capt_DevonCummings Ensign Michelle, can you determine what weapons they have?
Matthew Edwards Can we beam them up?
Capt_DevonCummings Action: Standard energy weapons.
I don't want to just suddenly beam someone off their ship.
Ens Alexi Michelle Seems to be standard energy weapons, Sir
Capt_DevonCummings ::To Waters.:: Can you find a docking port on that ship?
❙❙ Karlie Waters ::Scans to find where the docking port could be::
Capt_DevonCummings ::To Michelle.:: Are their shields up?
Action: No docking ports are located, and their shields are down.
Ens Alexi Michelle No shields detected, Captain. At the moment at least
❙❙ Karlie Waters ::She shook her head:: No Docking ports either.
Matthew Edwards ::weighs in on options::
Capt_DevonCummings Commander, feel like taking a trip?
Matthew Edwards Yes sir.
Capt_DevonCummings Take Michelle with you and beam over. Try to observe them first, and if you think it's safe, make contact.
❙❙ Karlie Waters May need medical as well, just in case
Matthew Edwards Yes sir. ::nods to Michelle:: I was gonna suggest that. I should bring one doctor with me. Just in case.
Ens Alexi Michelle ::turns over her station to a jr officer:: I suggest until we have established it is safe, we go in with a security team
Capt_DevonCummings Take the doctor along.
Ens Gaavr :: Listening to other traffic, if any ::
Crewman_Delgado ::Junior officer Delgado takes over Tactical::
Capt_DevonCummings Just you, the doctor and the commander, ensign....I don't want you to spook them.
Matthew Edwards Exactly.
❙❙ Karlie Waters ::nods::
Ens Alexi Michelle ::sighs:: Aye , Sir.
Capt_DevonCummings Go. Good luck.
Matthew Edwards ::heads to the turbolift::
Ens Alexi Michelle ::follows the Commander::
Capt_DevonCummings Action: They arrive in the main transporter room. They step up on the flatform.
Matthew Edwards ::he steps on the pad and waits for Michelle and a doctor::
Ens Alexi Michelle ::grabs the standard away gear, tricorder and phaser, then steps onto the Pad::
Capt_DevonCummings Action: The doctor steps up on the platform.
Matthew Edwards Alright. Everyone set?
Ens Alexi Michelle ::nods but keeps the phaser in her hand, just in case::Aye, Sir!
Matthew Edwards ::nods to the transporter chief:: Energize.
Capt_DevonCummings Action: The team materializes behind some crates, but they can see though some gaps, and they see.....
Pause sim.
Ens Gaavr (Zahn?) (think that's her name)
Ens Alexi Michelle ::AA::
❙❙ Karlie Waters ::pause::
