=^=Captain to the bridge.=^=

=^=I’m on my way,=^= Aaron said standing up and walking out of the Ready Room onto the Bridge.

“Captain we are approaching the Agosoria Nebula,” the helmsmen said as Aaron walked towards the center seat.

“Thank you. Bring us in to 500,000 kilometers as we prepare to launch the probes.”

=^=Lt Commander T’Sai please report to Bridge.=^=

Capt Foley - CO

Lanna felt the ship drop out of warp, her stomach settled into her throat as she realized it was time to get to work. She had been taking a nap as she waited for their arival. Sitting up in bed she grabed her com’s badge and gave it a tap. =^= “On my way Captian” she responded as she stood and walked to the door, it was time to make history.

Within a couple minutes the turbo lift came to a halt on the bridge, “Permission to enter the Bridge Sir?” she called accross to the captain.

OOC: We’ll need someone at Com’s, Tacktical, and Science for this one, thanks for advancing things.

Mr Centauri GM extraordinaire
LT Cmdr Dr Lanna T’Sai

“Granted. We are approaching the nebula Commander. Where did you want the Challenger positioned?”

Capt Foley - CO

Viveca slipped onto the bridge quietly, taking up a position to observe and be present. She nodded to everyone she locked eyes with, but she liked to be present on the bridge where possible for missions because…well, that’s where the action often was.

~Viveca Arlander~

OOC: I’m back on day shift, but I’m going to leave my LOA up just in case because I’m basically working 10 days straight (my days off this past week were to adjust to a night shift schedule lol) and I might be a wee bit tired…thing should hopefully be back to normal by Tuesday/Wednesday. :)

Demil slipped silently off the lift and to the science station. He was juggling a few PADDs, each with updates from one of the several cadet research teams - whoever said multitasking was not technically possible never met him. He tapped out a quick reply to Cadet Zayin’s group, watching the nebula readings out of the corner of his eye the whole time.

Lieutenant Demil Lis
Chief Science Officer

Lanna moved onto the bridge she made a few entrys’s into her PaDD. “Take us to the following co-ordinates” she said sending them to the captain. The position was far enough away from the center and the nursury that the ship would be well out of harms way.

Circling over to Science as the Lieutenant walked in she spoke with vigor. “Ready to have your name in the history Lieutenant Lis?” she asked

Mr Centauri GM extraordinaire
LT Cmdr Dr Lanna T’Sai

“Helm, set course for the following coordinates,” Aaron said as he read off the coordinates from his screen. “Ahead 1/4 impulse when you are ready.”

“Aye Captain,” the helm officer called out as the Challenger started moving ahead slowly.

“Lt Lis. Everything look good on your end?”

Capt Foley - CO

Then Engines moaned softly as the helmsman made the course entry .”One Quarter Impulse, Aye Sir” he responded. All sensor readings were well within safty limits as the challenger move deeper and deeper into the nebula.

Mr Centauri GM extraordinaire

“Yes, sir, all readings are nominal,” Demil reported, straight-backed in his chair.

Lieutenant Demil Lis
Chief Science Officer

“Excellent. Commander, it’s your mission, and I’m just along for the ride. We should be at the coordinates in just a minute.”

Capt Foley - CO

Lanna’s shoulder tensed briefly as a giant smile crossed her face. All her hard work was about to pay off.

As Aaron waited he looked over at Viveca. “How is the crew doing?”

Capt Foley - CO

“I think everyone is excited to see what the mission has in store for us, particularly the cadets, which is expected seeing at it’s often their first adventure into space,” she replied with a smile.

~Viveca Arlander~

Aaron nodded. “I remember that feeling, it is one of those key moments in your life. Sort of like the first time getting to see your home planet from space,” he said reminiscing.

Once the ship settled at the new coordinates Lana put on her official poster and tune, “Science, Launch the probes when ready” he said.

“Launching,” Demil confirmed. “Probes clear.”

Moments later the probes shot off into space toward their designated place in the nebula. With in a minute they were in position. “Deploy the sensors” she commanded.
“Aye, Commander. Mirroring data feed to your station.”
As the sensor net activated data started pouring in, more than could be read by most people but Lanna saw things in the data she had never seen before. “I , this is amazing so much of what’s coming through is new data, it’s going to take use yee…”

Her voice was cut of by a alert at tactical. A transwarp signature was detected.

OOC: I could not remember if there was someone at tactical, feel free to NE it or Jump in if you are security :)

Mr Centauri GM extraordinaire
LT Cmdr Dr Lanna T’Sai

“Report!” Aaron called out as he sat up in his seat.

Capt Foley - CO

Lieutenant Demil Lis
Chief Science Officer

“There’s something warping in, I’m attempting to get a read now Captain!”

-Lieutenant Zunara: Chief of Security-

Sensors are reading with emense graviton and subspace fluctions, gravitometric lensing and polaric subspace field distortions. Tachyon’s are building up at an almost imesurable pace. Signs that a transwarp conduit is opening, but it’s different than any ever produced by the borg and it’s masive. The readings are off the scale and your are having a hard time localizing them.

Mr Centauri GM extraordinaire

“Someone talk to me, what are we seeing out there?!”

Capt Foley - CO

“It appears to be a transwarp conduit of some kind, but the signature I’m reading isn’t Borg, it’s.... I don’t know what it is sir!”

-Lieutenant Zunara: Chief of Security-

The readings were masive and all around them, what ever it was it was very large. A slight cavitation was felt under foot, interial dampiners were reaching safty limits.

Mr Centauri GM extraordinaire

“Red Alert! Shields up!” Aaron called out as he felt the ship start to tremble. “Helm full astern. Get us more space between whatever it is. Commander,” He said turning towards T’Sai. “It’s your nebula. Tell me what you know.”

Capt Foley - CO

The bridge began to glow red as the red alert sounded across the ship, pushing the crew into action.

“This is not, the probes would not” Lanna’s words were cut off.

This ship began to move backwards as helm executed the command, it was slower than normal due to the stress already on the inertial dampeners. Everyone on the ship felt the tug causing them to stabilize themselves.

And then a blue vortex opened, swirling blues and white violently ripped through subspace forming a massive five thousand meter hole in space time, less than two thousand meters in front of the ship. With extreme speed the largest vessel anyone had ever seen shot out of the tunnel with blinding speed.

NE Tompson tried to veer the ship away but it was too late “Sir, it’s right , Brace!!!” was all he could get out of his mouth.

The Aliens vessel dorsal side struck the front of the ship sending everyone not in a chair to the ground, knocking the ship downard with great force. Sparks flew around the bridge as the the vessels collided again and again the power conduits and shields failing, sending the Challenger into a downward spin, as power to the bridge flickered on and off in protest.

With one last strike on the port nacelle, the Challenger and her crew reversed direction violently, sending her into a three axis spin,and the bridge glowed red under auxiliary lighting, the gravity now pulling on them making it hard to move as the ship’s computer tried to restabilize the ship.

LT Cmdr Dr Lanna T’Sai

Viveca held onto the armrests of her chair, barely managing to stay in her seat before the force of gravity actually held her down. She looked around the bridge to see if anyone needed her assistance, either as a counselor or as a medic, given the violent upheaval that just occurred.

~Viveca Arlander~

Viveca’s eyes scaned the dark bridge, the red alart still blairing loudly in her ears. Then she saw her, Lanna layed on the floor her leg twisted unnaturally a small pool of blood was forming under her head and growing larger.

Mr Centauri GM extraordinaire
LT Cmdr Dr Lanna T’Sai

=^=Arlander to Sickbay, medical emergency on the bridge,=^= She tapped her badge, grabbed a med kit from one the stowed locations she’d memorized when she was assigned to the Challenger, and carefully made her way over to Lanna, still feeling the aftereffects of the upset as well as the continued efforts of the ship’s computer to stabilize things. The lighting wasn’t the best, but she could at least start assessing people while medical worked through the ship as she was sure they weren’t the only deck with injuries.

=/\=Aknowleged Arlander. Neddleberg in route. Sickbay out.=/\=

“Is anyone else hurt!?” She called out while she pulled out a tricorder to run over Lanna, focusing first on the source of the blood, if she could slow it or stop it, then she could assess her leg injury.

~Viveca Arlander~

Lanna was breathing but it was shallow and labored, her head was beeding baddly though it was not pulsing just leaking out on the deck.

Mr Centauri GM extraordinaire
LT Cmdr Dr Lanna T’Sai

As the ship slowly started to stabilize again, Aaron pulled himself back up into his seat. His side hurt from where he was thrown into the armrest, but compared to some of the other crew on the bridge, he appeared to get off lucky.

=^=All decks report!=^= he called out tapping the comm panel. =^=Engineering, tell me how bad it is.=^=

He looked around the bridge back towards tactical. “Did someone get the plate of that ship?”

Capt Foley - CO

Demil fought his way back to his feet from the deck next to his console. One arm was bleeding slightly where it had scraped along the wall as the ship was tossed about, but overall the CSO was in much better shape than T’Sai or a few of the other fallen crew.

=/\= “Deck 5 Lab,” reported a cadet’s voice a few moments later, “we probably lost most of the ongoing experiments but no major injuries.” =/\=

Lieutenant Demil Lis
Chief Science Officer

“Shields at 83%, recommend we increase speed if possible.”

-Lieutenant Zunara: Chief of Security-

=/\=Sickbay standing by Captain. We’re looking for a safe place to open triage.=/\= Rox replied over the comms.

Lt. Rox, Chief Medical Officer

=^=Find something quick Lieutenant, your going to need the space unfortunately.=^=

OOC: Information Post with a couple corrections. no stress.

Viveca busied herself with stopping the blood from leaking from Lt. T’Sai, she was limited by the confines of the med kit of course, but she could likely stem the bleeding since the blood wasn’t pulsing out, she leaned in to see if she could identify how deep the wound went, head wounds always bled far worse than other injuries. She kept an eye on her vitals as well, the last thing she needed was a crash here on the bridge floor.

“Captain, if I’m not needed here once medical comes to collect Lt. T’Sai, I can give Doctor Rox another set of hands down there, still a fully qualified and licensed physician afterall.”

~Viveca Arlander~

“Go. They are going to need all the help they can get.”

“Yes sir,” Viveca nodded briefly, turning her attention back to the striken Lt.

It was deep, as she patted the blood away she could see it was deep but the skull seemed to do it’s job, vitals were stressed but stable.

“Well that’s promising,” she spoke quietly as she set to work patching the wound with the med kit equipment, hopefully T’Sai wouldn’t have too much a headache when she woke up. Once she was satisfied with her wound work, she took a look at the leg.

Her leg was twisted in a way that it should not be, the knee was dislocated. tricorder scan would reveal a large crack in her left femur, the break damaged some surounding thigh muscle but had not made it through the skin.

Viveca double checked her scans to make sure the femur hadn’t ruptured any major blood vessels, the Lieutenant was going to need sickbay soon as her med kit could only do so much with an injury like that.

With that another rummble in the ship was felt on the bridge, shields were now droping, they were at 25% and falling rapidly.

Mr Centauri GM extraordinaire

“Helm, any chance on getting us some more space in case something else comes through?”

Capt Foley - CO

The Helmsman was trying everything to get the ship moving that was possible, “Sir all forms of propulsion are offline,” the NE called out.

Shields are at 15% now and failing, Engineering is reporting major power relays down through out the ship, they are rerouting, estimated time till thrusters is 15min, impulse is 2 hours out best guess.

“We are damn near dead in the water out here!” Zunara called out, nerves rising in his voice.

-Lieutenant Zunara: Chief of Security-

“Calm yourself Lieutenant, we aren’t out of this yet,” Aaron said, though he felt anything but calm inside. There were too many questions left about what was going on, and not enough answers.

And with that the ships computer reported the shields at 0% they were now addrift in a slow tumble with not eyes, and no shields. As reality began to sink into the crew, the computer returned some good news. “External Sensors online” the computer called out over the bridge.

Mr Centauri GM extraordinaire

Demil threw the forward sensor view on the viewscreen and a rear view on his own console, overlaying analyses of any radiation or exotic particles detected.

Lieutenant Demil Lis
Chief Science Officer

Viveca kept one ear trained on the officers doing work around her, curious as to what their situation was, but continued to focus on stabilizing Lt. T’Sai.

~Viveca Arlander~

“What do you see out there Mr. Lis. I need to know what we are dealing with.”

Capt Foley - CO
