Juliet wasn’t sure how whole cities could be moved, but she understood severing power. Without thinking, a thought slipped from her lips loud enough for those closest to hear. “If you draw power from your sun and the overdraw possibly harmed it, is there a way to boost that power? Perhaps something on our ship could hitch up the power a notch or two to put things back to right. You all keep speaking of stones thrown in water, now rippling back and forth. How about, instead a stone, we toss an entire bolder? One large shunt of power that ceases the ripples and maybe stabilizes it?”
She wasn’t sure what made her think of it. As she stopped talking a small part of her brain finished the thought. Or it could just blow everything up down the whole line and destroy it all. But if they were considering severing them all, wouldn’t it be the same thing?

OOC: Like most of us are? <G>

The two blanched at the suggestions, each one seemingly fearing that at least one of the three would destroy it all. “This is an anchor city,” Zoon said at last. “This is the other end here. Power cycles to the end and then reflects back. What if it would be possible to do that? The energy would cycle nowhere and the feedback loop would end. That would be like that,” he glanced at Juliet, “big rock. With no end what are the chances of these energy streams fading?”“We would have to try to travel there,” Reauna said in a tone that suggested she was dubious of that.
“I did it. It is possible.”
“I can access the machine, but I do not know how to change it.”
“I may know that, but I cannot do it alone.”
“Our city has not the power to do it,” Reauna said. “To open such a bridge we would need more power .. ” she glanced at Cochrane.
- reauna and ZoonIliana nodded as she pulled up a quick schematic. “If we use a focussed energy beam from the deflector array I think we can provide enough power to reestablish the link with a few tweaks to the system. That said, we would need some further scans to calculate the exact power required, I wouldn’t want to overdo it and leave you in a worse position. “ she added.

Sovrk had set about getting scans of the each of them while he digested the information he had recieved. He had managed to scan one of the two.
“It is likely we may need all the energy we can get… if we had more information on the technology then we could use the data to make simulations. It may not be a bad idea to supply energy with both methods.” Sovrk added as he finished up the first scan.
Cochrane looked at Sovrk. “Get us a detailed scan of the system’s sun. Let’s see if we can use it to supplement the power to the machine.” He looked at Zoon and said “You said something about your link to your sun being unstable. What if we were able to stabilize that link and reset you to your correct temporal position? That would balance out the draw… correct?” He looked at Anders and Sovrk. “That’s what we are talking about, right?”

“Yes Captain.” The Vulcan put away the tricoder and stood. He looked thoughtful. “If we were able to reconnect them as they should be it should help to fix the situation. The other thing I could think of to help do so would be to be to sever the connections and then reestablish them… I will get into contact with the ship.” The man then walked around teying to get a com link estabilshed with the ship.
Lt.J.G Sovrk, CSOOOC: If I remember right, it is hard to make com contact right?
D InmanOOC: Nope, comms work normally. At least for now. glares at Wookie

Sovrk tapped the combadge on his chest. =^=Sovrk to the Bridge=^=
He gave a pause and waited on a response.
=^=Do what you must to obtain a full detail analysis of the sun. Look for the potential energy output we may be able to achieve by using it as a source.=^=
Lt. J.G. Sovrk, CSOThey were taking her seriously!
It had surprised Juliet that her suggestion had merit. To be honest, she thought they would shake their heads at the least, or laugh at the most. Once they started discussing possibilities, she started thinking of ramifications. “Sir,” she turned slightly and lowered her voice to Cochrane. “Should we get more security? If this works I’m sure celebrations will erupt. And if it fails, this could get ugly, very fast.”
Juliet
CoSCochrane shrugged. “Either way, we cannot interfere. All we can do is what we can to keep the issues this conflict has created from spilling out further. The temporal waves have ro be stopped. That is the mission. Other than that? These two cities are on their own. We cannot interfere unless we are in danger.”
Cochrane, CO
“Then I’m heading back to the ship. If things do go sideways and we are needed, don’t want to have to waste time then trying to get things ready. (NE) Lieutenant Players will remain with you in case you need immediate help and I won’t remove anyone else from the surface. Hope for the best, plan for the worst. Isn’t that an Earth saying?” She smiled and nodded to him as she tapped her badge to request beam up.
