Sir if this fear doesn’t have a structural field we can make one we can use the deflector to shoot a small energy wave that will keep the sphere together and keep it from falling apart“ He said check in his calculations most of the information seems to check out.
Lt. Isaac black (CAO)
Ari pondered for a moment. “Keep that thought in mind, Lieutenant. But right now I’m hesitant to send any energy in that direction till we know what the possible repercussions are. We need to see about getting those folks out swiftly or …” She frowned at the idea of the collapse becoming so dire it drew the whole station in.
“Mr Black… I want you to do a scan of the entire sphere. Find the largest intact section that can sustain atmosphere and see if there is a way to seal it off from the rest of the sphere. Maybe we can’t stop the collapse or the egg cracking. But maybe we ‘can’ keep a section large enough to maintain some kind of ship, of sorts, for the survivors.” Another long shot, but part of a sphere was better than none… right?

CO“So seal off a area and expander our shields to make a life boat right sir” Isaac did as he was told and scanned the structure “ there are a few area that has magnetic locks that will seal the room off sir”

=^=Bonnie this is Tafoya. There are several thousand people on the sphere. THey have multiple ships that can help transport, but we are going to need the Bonnie to make sure everyone gets off.=^= As she listened to the klaxon sounding =^=We are going to have to move quickly. This is a mass evacuation and people are already starting to panic.=^=
MACO
(Quick question is everything feeling you one or one after the other......... If so I might have a solution. The stop the Collapse)
((Anyone with ideas is welcome to pipe up… Ari is out of ideas on how to keep a black hole from collapsing… she’s now thinking evac and possible inner sphere living for the survivors…))=^=Roger, Tafoya… let’s see how many we can get into space as quick as we can. Bonnie is standing by with what transporter capability we can manage. But at this distance and with the interference of the sphere, I’m not sure how much good it will do. All shuttles have been scrambled to help with evac.=^=
“All right folks… this is it… any last ideas?” She had the feeling they were out of ideas at this point. She just hoped they could save enough to save the culture.

((Crossed to MACO))“Sir it may be risky but according to what I am picking up from the scan this systems are failing one after another like a domino I was thinking what if we would remove the next domino to stop them from falling into each other” he said still scanning.
Lt. Isaac black (CTO)
Scans would show that while the sphere shell was cracking per se it was likely to be stable enough to not progress to any critical sense unless they lost another of the gravitic repulsors. That was the good news. The bad news was that even if the shell was not going to crack, a repulsor failure would risk pulling the sphere totally off its moorings and plummet it into the black hole. That was the good news. The bad news was that by all appearances two of the repulsors were showing signs of instability after their auto-arranging.
One of the remaining delegates who did not go down to the surface spoke up. “There are not enough vessels to evacuate everyone. And to go where? But .. maybe, if the other spheres sent help.” He didn’t sound very hopeful. “We don’t … get along.”
- Wookiee
“Wait! What?” Ari glanced up forgetting some of the delegates were still around. “There are other spheres? Why didn’t anyone SAY anything?!” Her ire was evident and she was about to reel when she closed her eyes and took a moment.
After she had calmed down enough to keep her voice barely steady, she glanced at the speaker. “There are other spheres? Where and how do we reach them. Friends or not, you all depend on one another… apparently… so we need to reach out… NOW!”
The remaining delegates looked at each other, slightly confused, but also somewhat sheepish. “Second City is a smaller, distant city sphere. He glanced at one of the others. He represented the ‘free spheres’. They are a broad collection of smaller spheres not unlike Dal’s home sphere. Given that many raid the other .. especially first city we don’t get ..” he was cut off as Ari slapped the console.
- Delegates :)While awaiting the man’s answer, she slammed her hand on the console closest to her. [O] Tafoya… I want to know EVERYTHING the admin knows about the other spheres and I want to know now. Their survival depends on it… and don’t sugar coat it![O] She turned back to await the delegate’s response.

(NOT a happy camper at the moment… lol… and curious why they didn’t show up on previous scans.... ehheehe))Isaac started to scan for everything and anything. Not knowing what’s going to pick up.
Lt. Isaac Black (CAO)
=^=I apologize Captain. I am attempting to get that information for you. Smele has several ships that can help evacuate people. We’re trying to get that going. I will keep you updated. I have made it very clear to the Administrator what needs to happen.=^= Melissa said =^=If you have an idea how to speed things up then I am open. I am working as fast as I can here.=^= Melissa spouted off, aware of the danger and wanting to get off the sphere as much as anyone else.
MACO
The ‘other’ spheres did show up in scans. Like Dal’s very small clan sphere there were others dotted about not unlike widely spaced farm homesteads on the prairie. Nothing at all that would compare with First City. However they might, the closest that the scans might come to for a ‘Second City’ was a small village of clan spheres.
Comms would pick up a low frequency message from First City - a repeating short message not unlike an SOS.
- Wookiee=^=Captain, we’re going to have to do this the hard way. He doesn’t think any of the ships they have will come.=^= She said =^= I will see about getting everyone moving towards a central area. We may need to use the transporters.=^=
MACO
Isaac was looking at his scans “ Sir I would not recommend using the transporter because the center of the complex is right above their black Hole generator and that thing is unstable as it is will be very dangerous if we were treating them with that thing going crazy the way it is” he said as he continued his scans trying to find a solution to this problem.
Lt. Isaac black (CAO)
“Ok, let’s get all transporter rooms on standby. And start prepping for incoming.” She got on the comms and notified medical, security and engineering to standby for the influx of business they were about to do.
Her next call was back to the MACO, [O]All right… well get as many as you can on shuttles and the rest we will start transporting as soon as you are ready.[O]
