21:39EnsVarelNerik:@ Helm >[ XO ] ready to go sir.
21:39Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CO ] Captain. I now have a link established with Falcon. I can give a real time feed as they make their way across this work site.
21:39CmdrJorel:@ xo >[ helm ] then lift off
21:39CaptMcCloud:CO >[ SCI ] Put it on the screen.
21:40EnsVarelNerik:@ Helm> :: lifts the falcon off and heads to the planet ::

21:41Lt_Banning:SCI > :: taps his console, sending the feed to the main viewer::
21:41CmdrJorel:@ xo >[ ceng ] Did Banning locate a good place to land?
21:43Cmdr_Hart:@ CENG >[ XO ] :: Looking at the screen:: We do have a clear area to search, but I don't think we xhould be landing unless you want to go out in EV suis.
21:46Moonshadows:@TAC>[XO] Space clear.... Weapon, shields and sensors operating normally.
21:47!!!=/\=ACTION: As Falcon enters the planet's atmosphere, on the gound they see almost nothing by lush purple vegetation. They travel toward the coordinates and suddenly see nothing but sickly brown vegetation, all the way to the work site. =/\=
21:47CmdrJorel:@ xo >[ ceng ] :: mutters:: i hate those things . . . :: loader :: Okay, we'll save those for last effort then. [helm] Set a flight path to scan the area::

21:49Dr_Fenway:CMO >[ NOIP ] Is that brown area... all dead vegetation?
21:49JazzyFarrell:Sec>: semnds her men on Patrol
21:49Lt_Banning:SCI >{ CMO ] I believe so, Doc. That is why I wanted deeper study.
21:50CmdrJorel:@ xo >[ noip ] what caused all this death
21:50Cmdr_Hart:@ CENG >[ XO ] We're still pretty far out from the dig site. You think all this dead stuff is from that?
21:51Moonshadows:@TAC>{NOIP} Poisoning a planet.... ::Growls::
21:52CmdrJorel:@ xo >[ ceng ] Yes, I do. It's too much of a coincidence
21:52!!!=/\=ACTION: The Falcon comes up to the dig site. The vegetation is almost non-existent around the site. There is heavy digging and drilling equipment that has been abandoned there. =/\=
21:53CaptMcCloud:CO > :: winces as he looks at the actual dig site, which is just a total mess of mangled land and abandoned equipment.::
21:54Moonshadows:@TAC>[XO] No sign of weapons or power...
21:54Cmdr_Hart:@ CENG > :: has pretty much the same reaction as he looks at the "mess.":: [ NOIP ] They just took what they wanted regardless what it would do to the planet.
21:56CmdrJorel:@ xo >[ all ] Any sign of recent use?
21:56Bot:Lt. H'Renk> :: frowns, watching the images from the sensors. Checks the actual data. Sends to Banning.:: "What they did is slowly killing the planet."
21:57Cmdr_Hart:@ CENG >[ XO ] :: shakes his head:: Those machines have been inert for quite some time, Commander.
21:57Moonshadows:@TAC>[NOIP] There was an old legend about "Planetaries" - GOds of a planet. I could hope these take revenge...
21:58CmdrJorel:@ xo >[ ceng ] Can you tell who made the equipment?
21:58Lt_Banning:SCI >[ H'Rank ] "That's what I was worried about in my initial readings." :: turns to the command arena:: [ CO ] Captain. Lt. H'Renk confirms my original fears. Whatever they did down there is slowly killing the planet.
22:00Cmdr_Hart:@ CENG >[ XO ] Scans of the equipment shows that the metals of the equipment itself match what we know of Enclavian ships.
22:00CaptMcCloud:CO >[ SCI ] Can anything be done to stop it?
22:01CmdrJorel:@ xo >[ ceng ] can you tell how long it's been abandoned?
22:01Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CO ] I would have to do some more stufy on the actual damage, Sir. The readings from the Falcon will help with that.
22:02Cmdr_Hart:@ CENG >[ XO ] Close to a standard Terran year, Commander.
22:03CaptMcCloud:CO >[ SCI ] Get your teams on it, Mr. banning.
22:03Moonshadows:@TAC>::She is getting madder at the Enclave as she sits::

21:03CaptMcCloud:Good evening, Crew. Good to see you all and I hope you're having a good week.
Have you all read the brief, and do we have any questions?
21:04Dr_Fenway:Read the brief, Captain. No questions.
21:05CmdrJorel:read, no questions
21:05Lt_Banning:Yes and no, Sir.
21:05LtCdrWren:No questions Captain
21:05EnsVarelNerik:No questions sir
21:05Cmdr_Hart:No questions, Skipper.
21:06CaptMcCloud:Okay. Ensign Farrell sent me a note saying she wouldn't make it tonight, and I am not sure where Moonshadows is. I hope she is doing well, though. With that said, let's...
=/\= BEGIN SIM =/\=
21:07CaptMcCloud:CO> :: in the ready room waiting for the science officers to arrive::
21:07Bot:Lt. H'Renk > :: with Banning, ready to go see the captain:: [ SCI ] I"m nervous.

21:12Bot:H'Renk >[ SCI ] ::actually smiles:: I hope not.
21:13Lt_Banning:SCI >[ H'Renk ] Okay. Let's get this over with. :: steps to the ready room door and rings the chime::
21:14CaptMcCloud:CO > :: Looks up from a padd he was reading:: Enter.
21:14Lt_Banning:SCI > :: enters as the doors slied open:: [ CO ] Good afternoon, Captain.
21:15CmdrJorel:xo> :: looks up as H'Renk enters::
21:16Bot:H'Renk> :: enters behind Banning. Her light orange skin, turning just a shade darker as is common when one of her kind is nervous. She stands ram-rod straight, and looks between the captain and XO::
21:17CaptMcCloud:CO >[ SCI/H'Renk ] Good afternon, Mr. Banning and H'Renk. What all do you have for us?
21:18Lt_Banning:SCI > :: Moves tot he conference table and slips a reader into the open slot, activates the holo-display of the table. It shows the planet, and the "Dead Zone"::
21:18Bot:H'Renk > ::taks a seat at the table, she looks at the display::
21:19CaptMcCloud:CO > :: also looks at the display::
21:20Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CO/XO ] You might note, Sirs, that the area we are calling the "Dead Zone" is clearly marked on the planet's surface. You will also not a slightly darker shaded area within the marked out zone.
21:20CmdrJorel:xo> :: looks at the display::
21:20CaptMcCloud:CO > :: Nods as he looks at the display.::
21:23Bot:H'Renk > :: Picks up the narrative as discussed:: The .... darker area depicts the sensor readings from yesterday, when the..ummm... Falcon did its flyover. The lighter shade is how far the zone had expanded in twenty-four hours.
21:25CaptMcCloud:CO > :: raises his brows:: [ SCI/H'Renk ] how far?
21:25CmdrJorel:xo> how long until it covers the planet?
21:26Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CO ] :: exchanges a look with H'Renk:: Approximately 30 kilometers in each direction, Captain.
21:27Bot:H'Renk >[ XO ] Very difficult to say, Commander. It will cover most of this hemisphere within two weeks.
21:28Lt_Banning:SCI >[ XO ] We are still trying to determine what climates will either slow the decay down of help to spread it faster.
21:29CaptMcCloud:CO >[ SCI/H'REnk ] Have you found a cause for this... :: points to the display::
21:31Bot:H'Renk >[ CO } We have beamed up some soil samples, and some of the dead vegetation, Captain and are currently working on it, but we believe it may have to do with a... viscous fluid that the Envlave exert naturally.
21:32CaptMcCloud:CO >[ H'Renk ] A fluid? I didn't know they did such a thing.
21:34Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CO ] Neither did we, captain, until we ran the soil samples near the worksite. The computer immediately matched up a portion of it to a... well... classified file back at Command.
21:35CaptMcCloud:CO > :: Narrows his eyes:: How classified, Lieutenant? :: suddenly wonders if he'll be hauled into Command HQ::
21:36CmdrJorel:xo> classified??
21:37Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CO ] HIGHLY classified, Sir, but when I made the inquiry to Starfleet, I think because we are working on this in the first place, they allowed us access tot he data.
21:39Bot:H'Renk >[ CO/XO ] The date was a direct match for a viscous fluid found in the duct work and on a computer terminal aboard the U.S.S. Sugherland, where two young Enclavians were found.
21:41Lt_Banning:SCI > :: Nods in agreement:: [ CO/XO ] Those two were transferred to a top-secret research center for study along with an adult Enclavian that was found on a remote outpost in Federation space.
21:42CaptMcCloud:CO > :: enchanges a glance with Jorel::
21:43CaptMcCloud:CO >[ SCI/H'Renk ] :: Nods:: And they're keeping as tight a lid as they can on this so as not to start a panic among the Federation worlds.
21:44Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CO ] Aye, Sir.
21:44Bot:H'Renk > :: also nods in agreement::
21:45CmdrJorel:xo >[ all ] so, where does that leave us?
21:46Bot:H'Renk >[ XO ] That leaves us trying to find a neutralizing agent for that fluid of theirs. It iis present in the farthes out vegetation.
21:47Lt_Banning:SCI >[ XO ] We believe it could be the hight nitrogen content of the planet's atmosphere that is reacting with the fluid that was discarded by the Enclavian as they worked.
21:48CaptMcCloud:CO >[ SCI ] Do you think the Enclavians were able to breathe down there?
21:49Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CO ] NO, Sir. There is evidence they used protective coverings for their heads, and MAYBE their bodies.
21:50Bot:H'Renk >[ CO/XO ] But it is clear that whatever protection they did use, still allowed the fluid to escape and come in contact with the planet surface.
21:51CaptMcCloud:CO >[ SCI/H'Renk ] How close are we to a solution?
21:51CmdrJorel:xo >[ scis ] How --
21:52Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CO ] Pretty close, I htink, Sir. :: looks to H'Renk for confirmation::
21:54Bot:H'Renk > :: Nods:: [ CO/XO ] We have seperated the Enclavian DNA from the local vegetation and soil we beamed up. Surprisingly, the plant actually started showing signs of revitalization, once we put it in a contained atmosphere.
21:55Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CO/XO ] But, of course, that kind of seperation on :: points to the display:: This massive area, would almost be impossible.
21:56CaptMcCloud:CO >[ sci ] Almost?
21:57Bot:H'Renk >[ CO ] If we can introduce some kind of agent into the atmosphere that would actually do the sepearation and destroy the Enclavian DNA... :: trails off::
21:58CaptMcCloud:CO > :: Nods thoughtfully and studies the display:: [ SCI/H'Renk ] Get me an answer to that seperation. I'll send your report to Command and see if they want us to even act on it.
21:59Bot:H'Renk > :: almost protests that they MUST act on it, but sits back in her seat::
21:59Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CO ] Aye, Sir.
21:59CaptMcCloud:CO > :: Looks over to Jorel:: XO? Anything to add?
22:01CmdrJorel:xo >[ co ] :: frowns :: Nothing right now Captain.
22:02CaptMcCloud:CO >[ SCI/H'REnk ] Get to it. Dismissed.

21:11CaptMcCloud:Okay then. Has everyone read the brief and do we have any questions?

21:16Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CO ] Mostly, Sir.
21:16CaptMcCloud:CO > :: raises brows:: Mostly?
21:17CmdrJorel:xo> :: looks over at Troy::
21:18Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CO ] We have determined that introduction of Beranium into the planet's atmosphere will not only neutralize the enzyme from the Enclavians, but will actually start a reverse process.
21:19Cmdr_Hart:CENG >[ SCI ] Beranium? How much of it do you need and where will you get it? We can't replicate that much of it.
21:19CaptMcCloud:CO > :: Looks from Banning to Hart and back again::
21:20Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CENG ] Yes, that is the largets problem, but... We have conducted scans of the area. There is an ice-asteroid field about two light years from here, that we can possibly pull the amount of Beranium from.
21:21CaptMcCloud:CO >[ SCI ] Possibly?
21:22Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CO ] Yes, Sir. The sensor net has indicated a large enough quantity in that field, Sir.
21:22Moonshadows:TAC>::Ears go forward, shoot icebergs?::
21:23CaptMcCloud:CO >[ SCI ] So, we.. What? Go out tot he field, tow an asteroid back and let it crash into the planet?
21:23CmdrJorel:xo >[ sci ] is that the only source nearby?
21:24Lt_Banning:SCI > ::Nods to Moon, then looks back at the captain:: [ CO ] We go, tow one back, propel it into the atmosphere, then have Moonshadows blow it to bits, Sir. Small bits. Small bits that can spread out over the entire planet.
21:26Moonshadows:TAC>{CO] I see.... One shot to put the ice into atmospheric insertion profile, then shatter it.
21:26Lt_Banning:SCI >[ XO ] That is the only source with large enough quantities that we can deploy as quickly as possible. I beleve Starfleet would not want us here for a prolonged mining expedition.

21:37EnsVarelNerik:Helm >[ CO ] slowing to 1/2 impulse [sci] Lt, send me coordinates when you find one you like.
21:38Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CO ] Captain, I am sending the coordinates to helm for the one I want.
21:38EnsVarelNerik:Helm >[ Sci/CO ] Coordinates received, setting course.
21:39CaptMcCloud:CO >[ SCI ] That's what I like, decisiveness. [ HELM ] Ensign take us to the asteroid, put us in towing position.
21:40EnsVarelNerik:Helm >[ CO ] Aye sir :: engages new course correction::
21:40Lt_Banning:SCI > :: sends OPS the optimum points to grab onto the berg with so we don't break it apart.
21:40Moonshadows:TAC>::She scans the 'berg, looking for a weak spot::
21:41LtCdrWren:Ops >[ Sci ] take all the fun out of my job :: grins and readies the tractor beams ::
21:41CaptMcCloud:CO >[ CENG ] Rig the ship for towing, Mr. Hart. [ OPS ] Ready the tractor beam for deploying.
21:41Cmdr_Hart:CENG >[ CO ] The ship is ready, Sir.
21:41LtCdrWren:Ops >[ CO ] Tractor beam ready sir
21:41Moonshadows:TAC>::TIes into the computer and starts simulations....
21:41Moonshadows:::
21:42EnsVarelNerik:Helm> :: brings the ship into position ::
21:42EnsVarelNerik:Helm >[ CO ] we are in position Captain.
21:43CaptMcCloud:CO >[ HELM ] Hold us steady. [ OPS ] Deploy the tractor beam.
21:43LtCdrWren:Ops >[ CO ] Deploying tractor beam.
21:44!!!=/\=ACTION: The beam shoots out from the aft section of the ship and latches onto the berg. =/\=
21:44Moonshadows:TAC>::Computer simulations show if she bores a hole 40 meters in at THIS point... Puts a two high yeild warheads down the throat... Sens the simulation to Lt. Banning::

21:46LtCdrWren:Ops >[ CO ] We've got the object secured Captain
21:46CaptMcCloud:CO >[ HELM ] Take us back to the planet, Ensign. Warp seven.
21:47EnsVarelNerik:Helm >[ CO ] Aye sir, course laid in. Engaging at warp 7.
21:47Moonshadows:TAC>[CO] Sir, are we sure there are no people down there? Some of that ice is going to hit the surface - hard...
21:48Cmdr_Hart:CENG > :: silently checks on the attachment points. Nods in approval::
21:49Lt_Banning:SCI >[ TAC ] Moon... I mean, Commander. I'm sending you the simulations we did in the lab. We need almost total destruction of the berg. No ice chunks large enough to survive re-entry.
21:50Lt_Banning:SCI > :: taps his console, sending the data to Moon::
21:51Lt_Banning::: the simulation not only shows the hole that Moon figured out, but also several phaser strikes once the berg splits.::
21:51Moonshadows:TAC>::Sternly:: [SCI] Oh ,we MUST maintain protocol! Or... Must we? ::Tail loops:: I will rapid fire... But I cannot gurantee I can it every one if there are a lot
21:52JazzyFarrell:aC>: pHASERS READY!
21:52Lt_Banning:SCI >[ TAC ] With respect, Sir. If you utilize the pattern in the data file, it should do the trick.
21:53Cmdr_Hart:CENG > :: walks over to Moon's console and looks:: [ TAC ] Can you get that fancy?
21:53Moonshadows:TAC>::Knows it AIN'T GONNA GO ACCORDING TO PLAN, IN A PESSIMISTIC MOMENT::
21:53JazzyFarrell:((I thought I was tac?))
21:53Moonshadows:TAC>{Sci} I will be prepared to improvise, in case!
21:53Moonshadows:TAC>[CENG] I can but try...
21:54CaptMcCloud:CO >[ TAC ] That's all we ask of you, Commander.
21:55!!!=/\=ACTION: The ship approaches the planetary system. =/\=
21:56EnsVarelNerik:Helm >[ CO ] We are approaching our destination Captain.
21:56CaptMcCloud:CO >[ SCI ] Your show, Mr. Banning.
21:57Lt_Banning:SCI > :: eyes widen momentarily:: [ CO } Aye, Sir. [ HELM ] Take us in at three-quarter impulse. On my mark, we release the asteroid and get out of its way so that it is on its own trajectory to the planet.
21:57Moonshadows:TAC>::Stgarts her track, chrages her needle beams::
21:58Lt_Banning:SCI >[ TAC ] Tactical, stand by for my mark as well.
21:58EnsVarelNerik:Helm >[ Sci ] Aye sir :: slows to 3/4 impulse::
