Please keep hands and arms inside the spacecraft at all times. [18:06] Here is tonight's briefing... [18:06] =Sim Briefing!= Please type "ack" after you've read it... [18:06] Stardate 240103.19: "Turnabout is Fair Play", Part 2, by Jester. [18:06] SUMMARY: Definition of a spacecraft, Earth, circa 1965: Two million parts, all built by the lowest bidder. Definition of a Wraith, circa 2401: pretty much the same. [18:06] After spending several weeks behind Klingon lines, Coronado has finally made her way to the Starfleet side of the line. The Federation- Klingon-Romulan War is still raging over a wide front. We have learned that the Federation is holding the line only in the Triangle, to the "north" of us, and near Starbase 22 and the Gorn border, to our "south." [18:06] Coro is docked in Mobile Repair Facility (MRF) Pearl, undergoing repairs to our secondary hull. The crew has a brief moment to relax and reflect on the happenings of the last six weeks, and to begin to plan our next moves. Word around the ship is that Coro is soon to be sent directly to the worst areas of the front to try our luck with the Romulans... [18:06] No doubt part of the plan are four corvette-size starships called "Wraith Liberators." The Liberators were apparently built to field an experimental computer-based weapon that overrides the command function of enemy starships they are used against. However, the new ships are a little flaky and Coro has the job of sorting out the problems.

[18:15] Q> ::silences the computer and, picking up a PADD, finishes reading the report:: [18:16] * Savant composes the letter suprisingly slowly for a computer, looking more at the bridge around her than the padd [18:16] E>::grins:: would you like to help to sir? [18:16] ::ponders a bit then answers:: Our computer core is pretty sturdy sir, it should be fairly resistant to such technology.

If you'd like to review the flight manners of the Wraiths again, meet me in holodeck 1 at your convenience. [18:16] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:16] Ensign_Noname> +taps+ Commander, I just went off duty and went to go into 7th Heaven but it appears that Commander Dalton has closed it while he's gone. He can't do that can he? [18:16] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:16] H1> ::enters:: Ojh. [18:16] ::looks at Daren and nods before responding to Noname:: +taps+ I'll look into it Ensign, stand by.

[18:17] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:17] * Savant nods gently and murmurs, "he had that authority to close Seventh Heaven, and did so before he left. If you like i can re-open it ^_^" [18:17] +taps+ Bentall to LoraKor [18:17] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:17] ::backs out and walks down the hall:: [18:17] ::looks confused:: Seventh Heaven closed?

Miss Oswald might be a more appropriate choice. The interference has nothing to do with computer programming, but instead with subspace interference. [18:18] =.\ction= iflyby.wav Nearby, a task group is apparently forming up for departure. [18:18] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:18] H1> ::continues the instructive swordplay, the dummy's tactics and manouevers becoming more difficult:: [18:18] FD> ::exits Flight Ops and heads out on the Flight Deck:: [18:18] H2> ::enters and sets up the simulation -- The holodeck grid shimmers into a Wraith cockpit:: [18:18] M> ::reads over the padd, going over duties for the day:: [18:18] ((arrgh, brb)) [18:18] E>:;turns to Farley:: so what you say Farley, shall we reorgainize the engineering teams to replace the poorly manufactured Wraiths? [18:18] ::stops pacing and sits down, waiting for the captain to respond:: [18:19] E> +taps+ Lora Kor... go ahead, Exec.

[18:19] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:19] +taps+ Captain, sorry to bother you with this, but did you give Commander Dalton permission to close the crew's lounge down while he was off the ship? [18:19] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:19] <> [18:19] * Savant looks back down at the padd floating before her, pondering a word apparently [18:19] =.\ction= The Wraith cockpit is a cross between a Defiant bridge and the bridge of a Bird of Prey. There are four major control consoles, two devoted to tactical considerations, one to flying the ship, one to everything else. There is also a Captain's chair, but it looks a little superfluous. [18:19] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:20] ::wonders whawt modifications I could get away with on the sensors as I check th epanels and circuitry:: [18:20] H2> ::becomes hard pressed to continue his swordfight with the dummy as he starts to reach the limit of his own, out of practice, techniques:: [18:20] Q> ::moves to an upright tactical map and notes the task group in the area:: [18:20] TL> ::steps aboard:: Holodeck 1! [18:20] E> +taps+ Not specifically, no, but it sounds like the kind of thing that he'd do. Why? Do we need something out of there? [18:20] E>::picks up at padd:: hmm... actually if we join some of the repair teams...::taps on the padd:: there...

Not particularily, but it is the ships crew lounge and just because he's not here doesn't mean the off duty crew shouldn't be able to use it Captain. I'd like your permission to open it up again. [18:21] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:21] H1>::goes down on one knee as a hard strike puts him there, and looks up as the dummy raises his sword for a final strike:: [18:21] E>::hands the padd to Farley:: organize the these teams together and get them started... [18:21] M> ::taps the control to open the message:: [18:21] E> +taps+ Permission granted, but have someone make sure that he got any personal items out of there first. [18:21] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:22] +taps+ Acknowledged. Bentall out. [18:22] H2> ::takes a seat in the center chair, reading a padd about recent news:: [18:22] E> then join me on the first wraith.. [18:22] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:22] E> ::takes the padd:: Yes, maam [18:22] +taps+ Clayton here. [18:22] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:22] * Savant 's padd dissolves in streamers of light as she bobbed upwards, her program latching onto the incoming communique [18:22] * ENdr_Ungtae is mildly surprised to see the face of a Rihannsu femal wearing the uniform of a Starfleet commander. [18:22] Savant, did Dalton remove all his personnel items? [18:22] ::grins at nobody in particular:: Coronado is not Mr. Dalton's personal storage space, but Dalton sometimes acts as if it is... ::heads for the turbolift:: [18:22] yes, Sir, he did [18:22] H1> ::rolls to the side at the last second as the dummy's sword comes down and buries itself in the ground where he was a split second ago:: [18:22] *> ::exits the TL and heads towards H2. Enters H2 and heads for Clayton:: [18:22] E> ::turns and starts putting teams togeather and assigning them duties:: [18:22] (did he?? O_o) [18:22] E>::goes into her office and looks up who she wants recruit:: [18:22] ::looks to Bentall:: Shall a send a security team to the lounge sir? I could use Security overrides to open it up again [18:23] E>+taps+ Oswald to Savant [18:23] H1> ::brings his own sword down in a hard strike, splitting the dummy's sword in two:: [18:23] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:23] ::nods:: Could you unlock the doors please and reactivate all the lights and replicators? I'll tell Ensign Noname he can go ahead and enjoy. [18:23] i'll do that sir ^_^ [18:23] <> [18:23] ::looks at Daren and grins:: No need Commander but thanks. [18:23] * Savant opens Seventh Heaven with a thought, the lights coming back on and doors opening [18:23] ::nods in reply:: [18:23] H1> ::lets the swing take him around in a full circle, raising the sword as he does so before bringing it down sharply onto the dummy, carving through it from left shoulder to the right waist:: [18:23] E> ::gets all the teams going:: There you go people you know what to do. [18:23] ::hears "Dalton" and "personal items" and immediately grows concerned, turning around:: I certainly hope he didn't leave any surprises. I doubt he did, but one can never be too sure with Mister Dalton. [18:23] +taps+ Bentall to Ensign Noname, the lounge is re-opened. Have fun. [18:23] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:23] E> ::enters turbolift:: Computer, take me to wherever Lieutenant Clayton is. [18:23] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:24] H2> Greets Clayton. [18:24] H2> ::waves at Wayne, waiting for a response from Dejat:: [18:24] M> ::frowns as she listens to the commander's briefing:: [18:24] ::looks at Dejat:: Agreed Fornan. But I doubt it'll be a problem. [18:24] E> ::turns and heads to the office:: Maam teams are starting there duties [18:24] +taps+ Mister Clayton, I have some things I need to tend to. I regret I won't be able to join you just now.

I'm rounding more recruits to work on the first wraith... [18:24] =.\ction= The other task group seems to have formed up as much as it's going to. The ships jump to warp, heading "east."

Tread carefully, Jarod. ::quietly, so only he and Bentall, and probably Savant, can hear:: I know he took special interest in you a while back. He may have left...something. [18:26] H1> ::turns and exits the holodeck, keeping the sword pointed down as he does so:: Computer, save and end program. [18:26] H2> +taps+ All right, commander. Let me know when to expect you later. [18:26] H2> ::looks around the Wraith bridge layout:: [18:26] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:26] ::nods at Dejat:: I've been taking special care with that lately. ::smiles:: [18:26] +taps+ Im trying to find some answers to the questions posed at the last staff meeting, sir [18:26] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:26] M> ::listens intently as the recorded message finishes up:: [18:26] ::smiles knowingly, then turns to Savant:: Savant, a moment? [18:27] H2> Welcome, major, have a seat. ::gestures to the helm:: [18:27] *11> ::stops just outside holodeck 2 and pulls up the log of what program is running and who is running it:: [18:27] * Savant smiles at Dejat [18:27] Sir?

There's a bit more to take note of it when flying a Wraith, as well as the orientation of propulsion mechanisms in relation to how they appear on your readout. [18:28] * Savant 's holographic form drifts over to Dejat pleasantly [18:28] M> ::flusteredly:: I need to speak with you for a few moments when you get a chance. [18:28] * Savant 's voice drifts into engineering, "i'd love to, Ma'am... would you like me to summon the emergency engineering hologram for you?" [18:28] ::quietly, so only Savant can hear--which is pretty damn quiet:: Any progress with our...project concerning Kelaka? Or is everything still deflecting you correctly?

Put it through to my console please. [18:34] * Savant nods once at Dejat, "I can understand, sir" [18:34] =.\ction= As the two new ships come closer to Coro, the Prometheus is revealed as U.S.S. Fearless, the badly damaged Sovereign as U.S.S. Odyssey. [18:34] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:34] E>+taps+ yes... I need help getting Wraith One up to par.. [18:34] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:34] M> ::notices the Captain for the first time:: Uh oh... I'll be right back. [18:34] H2> Well, the Liberator has one main process: To get in close, to get in undetected, and to disable the enemy ship. Although saving the ship for future missions is preferred, getting that close may come with consequences, especially if a diversion doesn't go as planned. [18:35] =Description= Odyssey is in terrible shape, with a large portion of her saucer missing, clearly blown off. She is venting plasma from one nacelle and has a variety of other major damage, including a missing aft shuttlebay door, leaving much of the aft of the ship open to space. [18:35] M> ::unseals the door and rushes over to the captain, looking up to him with pleading eyes:: [18:35] * Savant says "as you like Ensign. Best of luck" to Ungtae [18:35] E> ::enters TL:: Fighter bay [18:35] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:35] ::nods again to Savant and begins turning back to his console, but stops and looks back at her:: I'm glad we have you here, Savant. ::smiles:: I don't know if I ever told you that. [18:35] M> Uh, sorry, sir. I didn't notice you come in. [18:35] H2> Because it's designed to be sneaky, yes, it has a bit of maneuverability, but you can get carried away and collide. Controls can be sensitive at times. [18:35] M> ::crosses his arms and grins:: Uh oh? [18:35] ::enters the bridge and walks up beside the command dias, arms in front of him as he looks at the holotank:: [18:35] * Savant 's smile widens at Dejat's honest comment [18:35] M> And yes, I noticed that. ::chuckles:: Something the matter, Ensign? [18:35] i've always felt proud to serve with you, Sir [18:36] ::looks up at Ironside while waiting for his message:: Greetting Colonel.

[18:36] ::smiles pleasantly and looks at Bentall, nodding in greeting:: Commander. [18:36] M> Well, actually, yes there is, sir. [18:36] Q> ::searches through the intelligence database for anything concerning Romulan computer systems:: [18:36] M> And that is? [18:37] ::smiles, a hint of sheepishness sneaking in:: Thank you. ::notes the Sovereign:: Oh my...that's...rather disheartening. ::notes Ironside:: Not every day you see that happen to one of the most powerful ships in the fleet, eh Colonel? ::doesn't sound jocular, merely honest and a bit down about it:: [18:37] * Savant keeps an 'ear' in on Ungtae's conversation with the captain [18:37] +taps+And you are needing me for that sir? [18:37] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:37] ::looks at the ships:: Have to agree with you there Fornan. [18:37] * Savant nods gently, "it appears to be some form of collomated disruption effect weapon." [18:37] H2> ::nods:: Can she get past Romulan sensors is my main concern. [18:37] M> Well, actually, um, sir, see, there's this admiral... [18:37] ::sighs and nods, his eyes focused on the sight:: I believe it's going to become a more common occurence, unfortunately. [18:38] ::taps a few buttons and forwards the text message to Cdr Bentall:: [18:38] H2> ::smiles grimly:: We'll find out soon.

I don't believe Klingons bother to collimate their disruptor pulses. Romulans occasionally use a beam-form of disruptor, which requires collimation. [18:38] ::looks down as his console beep and has a look at the message:: [18:39] E> ::beams over to Wraith one:: [18:39] M> Rear Admiral Dev Wallace of Starfleet Intelligence. He's been having me do some, er, research, sir. [18:39] ::purses his lips for a moment, then turns to Daren:: Commander, hail the Fearless, lets see if she can point us towards some Romulans. [18:39] EEH> ::sits up in Wraith One suddenly upon hearing the transport beam, banging its head on a beam in the hatch it's buried in:: [18:39] >CLANG< [18:39] <> [18:39] H2> ::frowns:: Thats what I was afraid of. Clayton, can she take a hit? [18:39] ::nods:: Aye sir... ::opens comm channel:: Frequency Open...

Look alive! Crews Jaguar Eagle and Ocelot report to Beta stations, relieve your Alpha teams. [18:40] U.S.S. Fearless, this is the U.S.S. Coronado. Would you mind relaying us your data concerning the damage to the Odessy? We require the location of some Romulan vessels for...tactical purposes. [18:40] << +com+ that>> [18:40] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:40] ::turns to Bentall:: Oh, you don't say? ::smirks a bit, trying to lighten the situation:: [18:40] =Description= The interior of the Wraith is cramped -- they're only 2 decks -- with miniaturized everything, including quarters and twin warp cores modified from Yellowstone class runabouts. [18:40] ::closing the message he looks up at the Fearless in the tank, a look of concentration on his face:: [18:41] H2> ::grin fades and he shrugs:: It isn't designed to be a tank. It's designed to get a job done. Once the job is done, our mission is to get the hell out of the way. [18:41] Adams>Barracks> Chief, are you alright? [18:41] W1> This ship is small [18:41] W1> EEH> uhm.. hi [18:41] M> This research of his might be... dangerous. He wants to develop a more specialized version of the Elnar retrovirus to use against the Klingons and the Romulans in this war. [18:42] W1> ::opens the tool kit and starts working on the ship:: [18:42] M> ::frowns:: I see. Well, route all future requests from the Admiral through me. I have an actual job for you. [18:42] * Savant 's voice trickles into sickbay, "i have full documentation of the ensign's communications with Wallace and Tal if you'd like, sir." [18:42] barracks>I have orders to secure engineering. ::to himself:: I hate those orders. [18:42] ::looks over at Daren:: Are we getting anything, commander? [18:42] M> With Lieutenant Dalton off the ship, Coronado needs an acting Chief Medical Officer. [18:42] W1> EEH> ::flushes, scuffs her foot on the floor and lets out a sigh... then turns about to get back to work [18:42] M> Unless you have any objections, that is you. [18:42] H2> ::smiles grimly:: Thus if we get caught before we activate our weapons, you can pretty much say we're toast. ::Looks at Clayton:: Whats your opinion about the Wraith? [18:42] ::transports to wraith one:: [18:42] W1> ::turns around quickly startled:: Hello you jumped me there for a second [18:42] E>+taps+ Oswald to MaAru [18:43] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:43] Q> +taps+ Go ahead [18:43] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:43] M> ::grins and flushes bright red:: Uh, no. No, uh, sir. Noneatall. [18:43] ::looks up from his station:: They're sending tactical data over now....two major battles taking place currently [18:43] E>+taps+ are busy cadet? [18:43] Barracks>Who's been a bad boy? [18:43] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:43] * Savant flickers delicately as she watches the bridge, looking placated [18:43] ::looks at Daren:: Close by? [18:43] BArracks> Send Them to Engineering. [18:43] *> [18:43] M> ::nods:: In the meantime, that means you're not going to have a lot of time for working on biological weapons. [18:44] ::nods:: Thank Fearless and transfer the data to my station, if you would...::slowly moving over to the mission ops console:: [18:44] TL>medbay. [18:44] M> Feel free to let the Admiral know it was my idea. [18:44] ::nods:: the Yadalla system and Eternity system sir [18:44] M> ::nods furiously:: Aye, sir. [18:44] Q> ::tosses the PADD down rubbing her temples:: +taps+ Not really.... [18:44] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:44] H2> Well, activating our weapons won't prolong our life unless we can take on a smaller ship. This is a last-minute project. Whether it works... we'll have to see. It worked on the Coronado. [18:44] M>::To himself:: Not now! [18:44] M> Um, sir... [18:44] W1>::sighs:Well, what can i help you gentlemen with [18:44] ::nods and looks at Ironside:: You don't think the Admiral has ideas of testing the Wraiths in one of these battles do you? [18:45] E>+taps+ please beam over to Wraith One to help replace bad parts.. [18:45] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:45] M> Just one other thing... [18:45] W1> EEH> ::bangs her head on some strut again on hearing Janeway's voice:: [18:45] >CLANG< [18:45] M>::feels the onset of the "need":: [18:45] W1> ::turns fully to Savant:: So what do we have here to do? [18:45] H2> ::nods:: Fair enough. Alrighty then, whats next on the agenda? ::grins:: [18:45] TL>slips a hypospray into his neck and tucks it back away:: [18:45] ::swings into his seat and brings up the data:: Not particularily, but the data will probably give us a great deal of information about Romulan ship concentrations in those areas, and we can choose a likely area to test our new toys. [18:45] W1> EEH> ::looks up and blinks a few times... the short engineer wasn't Savant at all, just a hologram:: uh, sir? [18:46] M> ::nods at Ungtae and looks over his shoulder at Tlaloco, appraising him:: [18:46] ::nods, stands up and moves closer to Ironside:: Colonel you have a minute? [18:46] M> What about Lieutenants Jones and F'mar? I know they just came aboard, but shouldn't one of them be next in line? I mean, at least by rank... [18:46] Q> ::scowles at the though of enginering work and considers telling oswald what he can do with his enginering kit but decides that a change of scenery might do her good:: +taps+ on my way, sir [18:46] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:46] M> ::tries a:: Good morning, Master Chief. Sleep well? [18:46] ::looking back and forth between the two battles:: Here we go... [18:46] ::looks over at Bentall:: Commander? [18:46] M>::stands at attention:: No sir. [18:47] W1> Oops sorry my mistake. So what do we have on this ship that needs us so bad? [18:47] H2> ::gestures to the console:: Let's try some maneuvering. Settings should be as real as they get... I have ... less than extensive practice, and I'm one of the most experienced with this ship, but let's try some turns in optimal conditions. We'll take out engines a bit later. [18:47] M> ::turns back to Ungtae:: Probably, but both Lieutenants have been offered their own CMO jobs, on other ships in Fifth. F'mar, in particular, is moving to Stirling. [18:47] M> Been drilling, deploying, liasoning near on twenty four hours. [18:47] E>+taps+ good... beam over... I don't want you getting lost on your way there... [18:47] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:47] W1> EEH> uhm.. i, ah, i think we're just... uhm... repairing and maintaining? i wasn't designed for making modifications.. not really, anyawys.... [18:47] M> ::turns back to Tlaloco and grins:: I know the feeling. [18:47] M> ::glances back and Ungtae:: Any other questions, Ensign? [18:47] M> Just needed to get something the doc left for me. [18:47] H2> ::scratches his head:: Banking too fast may cause an intertial dampener failure, so be careful about that. We're trying to fix it. [18:47] Q> +taps+ yes, ma'am [18:47] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:48] M>::hurries to supply:: Where is it? [18:48] ::lowers his voice:: Just thought you'd like to know that i just received a message from an Assistant Security Officer on Starbase Aurora. It seems our friend Captain Swift is up to something with the Orions now. The Fleet Commander who is also Swift has asked this Security Officer to be the go between from ourselves and the Fleet Commander Swift. [18:48] W1> Well that isn't very fair of them to limit you like that is it? [18:48] M> ::shakes her head:: No, Captain. None. ::grins rather childishly:: [18:48] M> ::raises his eyebrows and looks from Ungtae to Tlaloco:: Then I'll leave you to your patient. [18:48] Q> ::taps on a console initating a transport to the wraith:: [18:48] H2> ::nods:: Might as well. ::turns to the console and starts to tap on the console:: Alright lets see what she's got. [18:48] * Savant folds her hands behind her back and listens in on the conversation between ungtae and the captain idly [18:48] M> Good luck in your new job. It's a bit unusual for someone so young to be made a CMO. [18:48] M>::Grabs an empty hypospray dispenser, and palms it:: [18:48] W1> ::materializes and looks around:: [18:48] ::straightens his lip for a brief moment:: I see. Thank you Commander. ::coldly:: [18:49] W1 EEH> uhm.. well, ah, sir, i'm supposed to be a learning program... and i haven't really.. uhh.. been on... very... long [18:49] W1>::laughs::Me, sorry am not used to be startling [18:49] M> Well, I'm needed in... um engineering. [18:49] W1> ::notices the cadet beam into the ship:: Hello cadet [18:49] ::nods:: If you get a chance please share that info with Fornan. I think we may all be to busy to worry about Swift shortly. [18:49] E>+taps+ Oswald to Ironside [18:49] [CoroLCARS SOUND] [18:49] EEH> ::grins and rubs the back of her head:: [18:49] EEH> ::starts at the beam in of the cadet:: [18:49] M> ::continues to grin stupidly as she hurries back to the office and closes the door, not noticing the hypo Tlaloco palmed:: [18:50]
