21:00Lt_Banning:::AA::
21:00Dr_Fenway:::AA::
21:01CaptMcCloud:Good evening, Crew. Welcome to another Eagle sim. I hope you are all doing well.
Have you all read the brief and do we have any questions?
21:02Moonshadows:Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrief read, understood, no questions (In a hokey Scots accent))
21:02Dr_Fenway:No questions, Captain.
21:02Lt_Banning:Yes and no, Sir.
21:03Cmdr_Hart:All good to go, Skipper.
21:05CaptMcCloud:Okay. Moon you can be on either ship, the Eagle or the Taurino. What is your choice?
21:06Moonshadows:Taqurino sir! I never ge3t to go ANYWHERE!
21:06Moonshadows:::Tail loops::
21:07CaptMcCloud::: chuckles:: Very good. All Taurino crew use the @. With that said, let's...
=/\= BEGIN SIM =/\=
21:07CaptMcCloud:CO > :: looking at the desolate planet.::
21:08Cmdr_Hart:@ A-XO> :: sitting int he command chair of the Taurino as Jorel is currently off the bridge::
21:08Moonshadows:@TAC>::She is looking through the TAC console logs, grumbling, seems thye ship saw little action...::
21:08Lt_Banning:@ SCI > :: scanning the planetary debris::
21:09Dr_Fenway:@ CMO > :: still on the bridge of the Taurino::
21:10Moonshadows:@TAC>[A-XO] I do not see a battle in my recorders... I detect no ships but Eagle.
21:10Cmdr_Hart:@ A-XO >[ SCI ] So, this is definitely the remains of the 8th planet?
21:11Lt_Banning:@ SCI >[ A-XO ] Aye, Sir. I am detecting residue of the same materials that the Eagle is finding around the 3rd planet.
21:12Cmdr_Hart:@ A_XO >[ SCI ] So... the same object totally destroyed this planet as opposed to simply leaving the other one uninhabitable?
21:13Lt_Banning:@ SCI >[ A_XO ] ::Nods:: A good possibility, but why it would totally destroy one planet and not the other.. :: shrugs:: I'm not certain.
21:14CaptMcCloud:CO >[ SCI2 ] Is there ANYTHING.... maybe on the planet, or in orbit, or in the system that might explain what happened?
21:15Bot:SCI2 >[ CO ] I have not seen anything yet, Sir, but then again I have only been conducting general scans. I can redefine the scan parameters to look for such a device.
21:16CaptMcCloud:CO >[ SCI2 ] ::Nods:: Make it so.
21:16Bot:SCI2 >[ CO ] Aye, Sir. :: turns back and starts entering commands::
21:17Moonshadows:TAC>[A-XO] Iam detecting no power sources or ndications of anything cloaked...
21:17Dr_Fenway:@ CMO >[ NOIP ] This all does seem quite eerie.
21:19Cmdr_Hart:@ A_XO >[ TAC ] ::nods to Moon:: Good to know. :: Looks to Fennway:: [ CMO ] You can say that again, Doc.
21:20!!!=/\=ACTION: @ Barron starts to detect ship debris in the asteroid field. =/\=
21:21Lt_Banning:@ SCI >[ A_XO ] Commander. I am detecting ship debris in the field.
21:21Cmdr_Hart:@ A_XO >[ SCI ] Any idea what type of ship?
21:22Lt_Banning:@ SCI >[ A_XO ] Not yet, Sir. :: still scanning::
21:23Cmdr_Hart:@ A_XO >[ SCI ] Can you launch a probe? Get in closer?
21:24Lt_Banning:@ SCI >[ A_XO ] Aye.... That I can do. :: taps on the console:: Being a science ship, they actually have probes that not only can give us some better readings, but can collect some samples.
21:25Cmdr_Hart:@ AXO >[ SCI ] :: smiles:: Now you're thinking, Troy. Do it.
21:26Dr_Fenway:@ CMO >[ SCI ] Any biological matter in there with it, Troy?
21:27Lt_Banning:@ SCI >[ CMO ] Not sure yet, Doc, but... :: launches the probe:: We'll find out in short order.
21:27Cmdr_Hart:@ AXO >[ SCI ] Can you put the probe's progress on the main viewer?
21:28Lt_Banning:@ SCI > :: taps in some more commands:: [ AXO ] Coming right up.
21:29Moonshadows:@TAC>::Grumbles... Her hackles are up, SOMETHING isn't right...::
21:30!!!=/\=ACTION: @ The image of the probe navigating its way through the field appears on the main viewscreen. The probe come into the main area Banning programmed and the crew can see definite pieces of hull plating floating around. =/\=
21:31Lt_Banning:@ SCI >[ TAC ] I agree, Moon. :: taps on the console:: Sending sensor readings of the hull pieces to your console. Definite battle damage.
21:32Dr_Fenway:@ CMO > :: frowns as he looks at the images:: [ NOIP ] Such a waste.
21:32Moonshadows:@TAC>[SCI] Tactical logs show this ship did not get off much fire...
21:34Lt_Banning:@ SCI >[ TAC ] But it sure seems to have taken some. Of course, if it were in orbit of the planet when it explided.... :: doesn't finish.::
21:35!!!=/\=ACTION: @ Moon's console lights up as the sensor picks up a transmitter in the debris field. =/\=
21:36Moonshadows:@TAC>[XO] Contact! Sensor contact. Transmission, bearing 026 Mk II range.... 450,000 km. Transmission is on .00015mr....
21:37Bot:SCI2 >[ CO ] Captain, I think I have something. On the planet, Sir.
21:38Cmdr_Hart:@ AXO > :: stands:: [ TAC ] That's deep within the field, isn't it?
21:38Lt_Banning:@ SCI >[ AXO ] Commander! I amdetecting life signs at that bearing.
21:39Moonshadows:@TAC.{AXO] In a very cluttered part sir! I can't get a clear reading on it.
21:40Cmdr_Hart:@ AXO >[ SCI ] Life signs? How many?
21:40Lt_Banning:@ SCI >[ AXO ] I believe about 10, Sir.
21:41Dr_Fenway:@ CMO >[ AXO ] We need to find a way into the fleid, Commander.
21:42Cmdr_Hart:@ AXO >[ CMO ] I am aware of that, Doc. [ TAC ] Moon, have engineering prep a shuttle.
21:43Cmdr_Hart:@ AXO > :: contacts Jorel and lets her know::
21:44Bot:@ Jorel-ACO > :: acknowldges the information and agrees that a shuttle should be launched.::
21:44Moonshadows:@TAC>[NOIP] Something wrong... I FEEL it!
21:44Cmdr_Hart:@ AXO >[ TAC/CMO ] Moon, Doc, you're both with me. :: Heads to the lift::
21:45Dr_Fenway:@ CMO > :: Moves to the TL:::
21:46Moonshadows:@TAC>[AXO] Aye sir.... ::Follows CMO]
21:46Lt_Banning:@ SCI > :: gontinues to watch the probe's progress, cataloguing the data.::
21:46CaptMcCloud:CO >[ SCI2 ] What do you have Lieutenant?
21:47Bot:SCI2 >[ CO ] I believe it some sort of ... black box, Sir. There is a homing beacon going off. I had to cut through the interference inf hte atmosphere to start to receive it.
21:48CaptMcCloud:CO >[ SCI2 ] Can we beam it aboard?
21:48Bot:SCI2 >[ CO ] I don't believe so, Sir. Too much interference.
21:49Cmdr_Hart:@ AXO > :: arrives in the shuttle bay, sees a McCall-class shuttle waiting for him::
21:49Cmdr_Hart:@ AXO >[ NOIP ] COuldn't have asked for a better shuttle.
21:49Moonshadows:TAC>::Grumbles again:: [AXO] A runabout is better armed....
21:50Cmdr_Hart:@ AXO >[ TAC ] Yes it is, but Oberth-class ships don't have room for runabouts. We'll do with a McCall. :: Boards the shuttle::
21:52Moonshadows:@TAC>::she baords, goes to her station, powers the console and logs in::
21:52CaptMcCloud:CO >[ AXO ] Have engineering prep the Falcon. We're going to have to go down there.
21:52Bot:Wren- AXO >[ CO ] Aye, Sir. :: taps in the command to the flight deck::
21:53Dr_Fenway:@ CMO > ::Boards as well :: [ AXO ] Your confidence in this class bodes well for the mission, Commander.

MISSION BRIEF
21:00Moonshadows:::AA::
21:00Lt_Banning:::AA::
21:00Dr_Fenway:::AA::
21:01Cmdr_Hart:::AA::
21:01CaptMcCloud:Good evening, Crew. I hope you are all doing well.
21:02Moonshadows:Greetings sir, fellow crewbeings
21:02CaptMcCloud:I did send out a mission brief and sim cancellation notice, last week, but for some reason it didn't make the mail list. I was glad to see it went out this week. Commander Jorel won't be with us this week. She is not feeling well, so the second front mission will go on the back burner. Instead we will focus on Commander Hart and his predicament.
Is everyone pretty well caught up with where they are, and do we have any questions?
21:04Moonshadows:::RH::
21:05Dr_Fenway:Caught up and no questions, Captain.
21:05Lt_Banning:Yes and no, Sir.
21:06Cmdr_Hart:Good to go, Skipper.
21:07CaptMcCloud:Okay.Then we will go with that Dr. Fenway has had time to assess most of the casualties aboard the pod. With that said, let's...
=/\= BEGIN SIM =/\=
21:08Moonshadows:Sir.,..
21:08Moonshadows:@ TAC>::At station, ;scanning, grumping to herself. She's NOT happy, couldn't say why...
21:10Cmdr_Hart:@ CENG > :: in the pod. :: +[ TAC ]+ Moon, we'll be returning to the shuttle momentarily. Pull up our extarnal scans of it and be ready.
21:11Dr_Fenway:@ CMO >[ CENG ] Commander, most of the people have been checked over and stabilized. We do need to get back to the Taurino as quickly as possible though.
21:12Moonshadows:@ TAC>+{CENG}+ Transferring scans... Recorded. At your conveninece Commander
21:13Cmdr_Hart:@ CENG >[ CMO ] I know, Doc. I'm going back to the shuttle to figure out just HOW to do that.
21:14Dr_Fenway:@ CMO >[ CENG ] Very good, Sir. I'll remain back here with the casualties just in case the ride gets rough.
21:14Cmdr_Hart:@ CENG >[ CMO ] Workd for me, Doc. :: heads back to the shuttle::
21:15Lt_Banning:@ SCI > :: still aboard the Taurino, watching the sensors::
21:16Cmdr_Hart:@ CENG> :: climbs the portable ladder into the shuttle:: [ TAC ] Okay, Moon. You have those scans ready?
21:17Moonshadows:@ TAC>::She fine tunes her sensors - unnecessarily - keeping an eye out:: [CENG} QUeued up Commander!
21:17Dr_Fenway:@ CMO > :: goes back to the patients and explains to them what's going to happen::
21:19Cmdr_Hart:@ CENG > :: looks at the scans.:: [ TAC ] Okay. We're going to need to tow this thing out of here. I'm of the mind that this shuttle's tractor beam will be inefficient to do that job. We may need a couple grapple cables.
21:20CaptMcCloud:CO >[ SCI2 ] Ensign, what is the progress of the Falcon?
21:21Moonshadows:@ TAC>[CENG] Grapples.... Interesting. I've not shot projectiles in some time... I suggest we sue cables AD tractors sir...
21:21Bot:SCI2 >[ CO ] They are having a rough go of it, Captain, but are almost on top of the signal.
21:22Cmdr_Hart: @ CENG >[ TAC ] :: smiles:: Well, now is the time to see just how rusty you are, Commander.
21:22CaptMcCloud:CO > :: Nods:: [ SCI2 ] Okay. What about the Taurino shuttle?
21:23Bot:SCI2 >[ CO } They are still stationary with the large life pod, Sir.
21:23Moonshadows:@TAC>::She makes a creaky "Meowish" Noise...:: [CENG} Put us in position, sir, I'll see if we can spear a fish... Blast Pavel Chekov for bringing spears to Sivao... ::Tail loops::
21:24Cmdr_Hart:@ CENG > :: looks over the sensor shots:: [ TAC ] I'm thinking this point here.. :: Points to a spot on the image of the outside of the pod.::...
21:25Cmdr_Hart:@ CENG >[ TAC ] ... And this one here. :: points to a second spot. :: Two grapples plus the tractor beam should do the job.
21:26Moonshadows:@TAC>::Nods:: [CENG} Agreed sir. I would like to report... I've a bad veeling. I do not know why, but my scruff is up.
21:27Cmdr_Hart:@ CENG > :: pats Moon's shoulder:: [ TAC ] Bad feelings keep one vigilant, Moon. Let's be real cautious.
21:28Cmdr_Hart:@ CENG > :: Moves to the hatch, pulls up the portale ladder and reseals the opening::
21:29Cmdr_Hart:@ CENG >+[ CMO ]+ Hart to Doc Fenway. We'll be detaching from the pod and attaching grapples.
21:30Dr_Fenway:@ CMO >+[ CENG ]+ Acknowledged, Commander. The admiistrator is so advised.
21:31Cmdr_Hart:@ CENG > :: takes a seat at the helm console:: [ TAC ] Moon, send a message to Taurino and Eagle. Let them know what we're doing.
21:33Moonshadows:@TAC>::She primes the grapple launchers, starts to sight:: [CENG] Texting Taurino... Copying Eagle sir... Grapples ready when we're in position. ::Tail loops again:: Put its nose up our but - it's the feline way, Commander!

21:34Bot:OPS2 >[ CO ] Captain, we've just received word from Commander Hart's shuttle. They're going to attach two grappes and tow the pod out to the Taurino.
21:34Moonshadows:@TAC>::Waits till they're in position, NOT going to show off...::
21:34Bot:@ OPS3 > :: reports the same aboard the Taurino bridge::
21:35CaptMcCloud:CO >[ OPS2 ] Very good, Lieutenant. Send an acknowledgement back to the shuttle.
21:36Bot:OPS2 >[ CO ] Aye, Sir. :: sends the acknowledgement::
21:36Cmdr_Hart:@ CENG > :: applies thrusters and moves the shuttle into position:: [ TAC ] Fire away, Moon.
21:37Moonshadows:@TAC> FIres portside grapple.... FIres starboard side. Inside the Pod, there are two loud CLANGS.:: {Ceng} Good contact... Firm anchor. Eagle, acknowleges!

21:43Cmdr_Hart:@ CENG >[ TAC ] :: grins:: The journey has only begun, Moon.
21:44Bot:SCI2 > :: Nods and puts the sensor images on the main screen. It shows the progress of the Taurino shuttle::
21:45Cmdr_Hart:@ CENG > :: uses thrusters to adjust their course:: [ TAC ] This is definitely a bit trickier with that pod attached.
21:46Moonshadows:@TAC>::Watches:: {Ceng} Cable strain... ACCEPTIBLE! Grapples holding. Let us not cut dadoes sir...
21:47Lt_Banning:@ SCI > ::winces as the pod narrowly misses scraping an asteroid::
21:48CaptMcCloud:CO > :: also flinches as they pass by the large asteroid:: [ NOIP ] I am not envious of that task.
21:48Moonshadows:@TAC>[SCI] Relax Mr. Banning, it's like comparing sex to jogging... A "miss" is as good as a mile! ::Whiskers spread in grin::
21:48Bot:SCI2 >[ CO ] Nor am I, Captain.
21:49Lt_Banning:(Not sure how you saw me wince, Moon. I'm still aboard the Taurino. :) )
21:50Moonshadows:((Sorry))
21:50Dr_Fenway:(Cats have a very good sense, Troy. Even over that distance. :) )
21:51Moonshadows:((It's the whiskiers... sensor antennae, the ones over the eyes are heat seekiers - that's how we find a warm cushion))
21:51Cmdr_Hart:@ CENG > :: lets out the breath he was holding, as he again adjusts his course:: [ TAC ] That was a little closer than I would have liked, Moon.
21:52Moonshadows:@TAC> [CENG} Blasting asteroids causes shrpanel sir, that pod is neither armored nor has much in the way of deflectors...
21:52Lt_Banning:(Whiskers! I always wanted a set of them.)
