Posted by Captain Stovik (Captain) in Main Sim: Bridge Purple Lighting Posted by… suppressed (3) by the Post Ghost! 👻 : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : For the rumble was followed by the ship lurching hard. The ship was flung from its river into normal space. Her lighting blacking out entirely again before the emergency lights flickered back into existence, showing the ready room’s furniture was now either scattered or in pieces. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : A moment later the Ready Room doors swooshed open and a bloodied Captain was standing in the doorway. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “If there are medics still on the bridge, I need medics in here.” He ordered shortly as his gaze swept the bridge to see who was still standing. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Captain Stovik : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : As the ship lurched forward Adria managed to catch her self with the back of the helm chair. A searing pain shot through her left shoulder as the captain voice sounded behind her. She suppressed the pain in her arm, and made her way back over to where the Captain stood. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : She grabbed a med kit that she kept stashed away behind the tactical station and made her way over to the captain. “Let me get you checked out” she said as she pulled a medical scanner from the kit and began scanning the Vulcan. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Lt (J.g.) Givens, sec/intell : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : The Captain’s eyebrow rose but he allowed the scan.”I am not as injured as those inside, they need to be tended too.” The scans would indeed show that the Captain had sustained a cracked rib with the small laceration on the right side of his temple. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Will looked back and cursed himself. He really should have stayed an extra year and finished medical school aswell. He’d been in such a rush to get on a ship that he had no real talents to assist now so he just continued his internal investigation. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : CSO : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : =^=T’Aria to Doctor Kane, what is the status of the injured upon the bridge? Do you require addition medical assistance?=^= The monotonous voice came through, directed at the medical officer, who was last noted to be upon the bridge. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Dr. T’Aria : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : CMO : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Kane, in the Ready Room, tapped his badge =/\= Yeah, Doc. We got multiple injured, a few unconscious. I’m tending to the XO right now in the Ready Room. But after that last stop, we are definately gonna have more people banged up on the bridge. =/\= : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Having found himself sprawled over the flaw after the ship lurched back to normal space, but otherwise uninjured aside from a bruise or two, Bronson rolled to his feet easily and pulled himself to his station. From here, he immediately opened all channels of communication to recieve any incoming signals, from any source that might give them a fix on their location, or identify any nearby ships capable of entering into communications in case of distress. He had little to no medical training himself, but he could man almost any of the Bridge stations in a pinch including Helm. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Lt Dredge : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Comms : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : OOC: Cross posting from the Engineering thread. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : IC: [O] Scott to Bridge we had a massive accident in Engineering. We’re dead in the water and our nacelles are fused Sir. [O] : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Scott, CE : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : There were no incoming signals or traffic to listen to. A dark planet loomed nearby with two tiny moons circling it. Nothing that would be able to give a prelimenary fix on their current location. One single blip on what little long range scanners would show a ship of unknown origin. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : -GM : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Kane, Tac / Med : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Stovik had taken a moment while Givens was scanning him to access the activity and reports on the bridge. Deciding that the woman had had long enough to scan he moved out of the doorway and passed her toward the Command center. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “Report! Science, where are we?” He asked as paused by his command chair but instead of sitting in it he just reached down and toggled the comm open to Engineering. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : [O]Engineering, divert all power to life support, shields and fixing the engines. Anything else can wait. I have some schematics coming down to you.[C] He paused to look around to see who was free on the bridge. His eyes lit on Dredge at Comms. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “Lieutenant Dredge, run this chip down to Engineering. It has the schematics for the new engine that they require. Call in someone to man your station while you are gone.” The Captain said as he held out the chip he had gotten from Loring and fortunately had not lost in the crash. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : He turned to Givens.”Lieutenant Givens, I am assigning you to keeping an eye on our guest. Though he is working with the Admiral he apparently is also working for the Intelligence branch and I do not trust his intentions in regard to this ship. His name is Commander Jonathan Loring.” : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “Lieutenant Stone, where are we and what is around us? Work with Science to get our sensors working so we are not caught unawares.” : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : The Captain then paused to watch as the crew got to work, he still did not attempt to sit in his command chair. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Captain Stovik : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “Aye Captain” Dredge replied. He had just received a personal communication from medical and Ha’ge about Chi’s injuries, and while he wasn’t exactly sure what he could do he intended on finding out. He tapped out a fast and short reply, then moved to collect the data chip. Taking the data chip to main engineering would let him check on Chi as an aside unless something got in his way. Nodding at the Relief Officer who took over his station Bronson moved to the turbolift, pausing slightly as a man stepped out with glasses and a gash to his forhead then passing him with a grunt and allowing the doors to slide closed. Holding up the data chip, he placed it in his tunic pocket. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Loring stepped out onto the bridge, still beingheld by the alien catlike being. The gash above his eyes had reopened and started dripping into his face. “Could someone direct this officer to let me seek medical attention in Sickbay? I can see we have dropped from high speeds.” He looked out the Bridge viewscreen. “I do hope the ship is in one piece.” The gentle smile returning to his face. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : -GM : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : OOC: Wolflike, darling. You could say he’s essentially a Caitian, but Lupine instead of Feline. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : -Miriam : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “Captain, what are we to do with him?” Stone pointed at Loring. “Throw him in the brig for endangering the ship?” she asked. Although she tried to ask as neutral as possible, a bit of scorn was easily detected in her voice. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Lt. Andrea Stone, COS : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Kane came out from the Ready Room where he had tended to the XO. Now that he was stable, Kane walked up to Loring. “Hang on a sec, Mwezi. I can seal that up.” and he reached into his bag, pulling out a small tube. Opening the cap, he grasped the sides of Loring’s head wound and pinched it together. He then squeezed a line of acrid and foul-smelling compound across the cut. Kane knew the sensation would be akin to dropping raw alcohol in the wound, but the substance (his old Paramedic Supervisor called it ‘Crazy Glue’) would seal the wound closed and make sure it didn’t reopen. Would do nothing to prevent scarring, but Kane thought a reminder of the man’s colossal foul-up every time he looked in the mirror was appropriate. As he blew softly on the glue to harden it, he leaned in close to Loring. Speaking not a whisper but not loud enough to distract anyone on the bridge, he said “You know, the Captain told Mwezi not to hurt you. I didn’t get the same direction. If we lose crew because of you, I’m gonna make sure you pay. That scar you’ll be sporting won’t be the only one when I’m done.” and then he leaned back and in a much louder voice said “He doesn’t need Sickbay, Skipper. No concussion, he can deal with what I gave him. I’m sure they are busy down there, anyway.” and he looked at the Captain and cocked his head to the side. His eyes narrowed as he looked at the odd way the Captain was standing and the small trickle of blood on his temple through the wisps of wild hair in front of his face, and he said flatly “You’re hurt Skipper. Take a seat. I’ll patch you up.” and he looked around the room to see if any further injuries required more immediate attention. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Kane, Tac / Med : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “I will see to my own needs once the situation is stabilized. Do what you can here.” Stovik said to Kane. Nothing on his stoic face showed any pain that he was in though he did deign to swipe at the blood that trickled down the side of his face. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : William looked at the Captain “I’m afraid that I don’t know Captain” He tried his best to hide his panic behind the calmly collected persona of a man of Science “There is nothing to pinpoint our location, I’ve got a single planetoid with two moons.” He informed the bridge “I’ve also got some sort of blip aways of, It appears to be a ship but they’re too far off for us to catch a true reading.” He then looked back towards the stranger the Security staff seemed to dislike “Well I could always use a test subject for my experiments since we appear to have been his” It was entirely unclear if he was joking or not. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : CSO : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “Lt. Gray, work on those sensors. I want to know who that ship is and what they are doing at all times.” : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Kane looked at the Chief Scientist and said “I called dibs first.” with a tone that would not be inaccurately described as unsettling. It was, also, entirely unclear if he was joking or not. But for those who had dealt with the tattooed figure, it would almost certainly be assumed to be the latter. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Kane, Tac / Med : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “Neither of you get to have your way with him” she said as she took a step toward Loring and mwezi. “If anyone is to have their way with him it will be me.” : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : The Relief Officer on Comms took position and began to check the systems. “Captain, no comms traffic in this area, its dark sir. No other Federation vessels appear to be within communications range.” : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Lt Dredge : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Comms : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “Understood, keep alert. I would imagine we make a nice target.” Stovik said as he waited for his crew to give him any other reports. He watched them frantically working. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : The blip on the radar slowly started making its way towards the Chernov after a few moments. Given its projected speed from staticky sensor readings show it could arrive within the next 4 hours. Nothing to determine what or who it could be though. The dim lighting of the Bridge seemed to accentuate the desperate atmosphere all to well. The ship was adrift with barely working thrusters and life support. Her blown up nacelle bits came into view as the ship slowly spun around as another minor Klaxon showed partial loss of gravity in some of the lower decks. Sickbay was among the list of affected areas. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Loring narrowed his eyes as his forhead stung him a bit. “I highly suggest you let me loose so I can attempt to help restore systems. It doesnt help to jave the only person aboard who knows the parts not actually help fix the mess, correct?” He knew appealing to the Vulcan Captain’s logic would gain him more trust and freedom of movement at current than his actual backup alternatives. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : -GM : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Mwezi didn’t let go of the man’s wrists. “I do not believe that trusting this man is a good idea,” he said, suppressing a low growl. He wasn’t about to let him mess with the engines any more than he already had. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “Mwezi he may be our only chance of getting home alive. What choice do we have!” She said eyeing Loring with a if looks could kill look” : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “I’m with Howlin’ Mad Mwezi on this one. Last time he was in Engineering… well, look around.” Kane said. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “Lieutenant Givens will be your shadow, Loring. You may assist Engineering under her watchful eye and the Chief Engineer’s. Given’s inform the Chief to watch this man closely.” Stovik then looked around again.”Actually I would like you to have back up as well, Ensign Harper, I am assigning you with Given’s as well.” He said as his eyes lighted on the young Security officer. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : The pain in her shoulder had gotten worse in the last few minutes and with the task of keeping her eye on Loring. the last thing she needed was an injury to get in the way. “Kane when you are finished treating the captain I could use your assistance” : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Lt. (j.g.) Givens, sec/Intel : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Kane nodded and made his way over to her. Running his tricorder over the joint, he said “Dislocated. I can send you to sickbay and they can work their magic, but you’ll be waiting with the amount of injuries they are probably dealing with, or… or I can set it. But it will hurt. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : A Lot.” : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “I don’t have time for sickbay!” She said looking back at Loring. With a deep breath and her voice trembling from the pain already “do it”was all she said. : : : : : OOC: Fixing the split : : : : : IC: : : : : : Kane took her arm by the elbow in one hand and placed the other on the shoulder. Using his tattooed fingers, he felt the joint to determine exactly how the joint had slid out of socket. Once he knew the direction to manipulate the joint, he looked Givens in the eye and said “Deep breathe in, then out. On three.” and he waited as she took a deep breath and began to exhale. “One…” and he pulled and turned her arm swiftly which resulted in a loud ‘CRACK POP’ that was audible across the bridge. : : : : : : : : Loring closed his eyes at the sound of the arm being out back in the socket. : : : : : : : Adria had been expecting the count to be short. Maybe two, but she wasn’t expecting to to happen on one. As the medic ppopped her arm into place there was a low growl that erupted and the only other sound that came from her was the name “Jay” : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Chris came onto the bridge from the ready room looking in shock from the damage that the stop did as well as the whole trip in general. Saying it out loud but to no one in particular. “This is why I said to do a gradual stop and not a sudden stop. Did anyone watch ‘Spaceballs’?” : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : OOC: By the way as long as there are not an huge holes in the ship that aren’t contained, then given the math by the size of the ship, then we have about 2 1/2 years of oxygen on the ship before the CO2 gets to threatening levels. Just adding actual science here. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : OOC: That’s good to know! Is that counting the number of people we have breathing it? : : : : : : : : : : : : OOC: That includes the full crew compliment. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Lt Commander Chris Taggart XO : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “Commander, are you well?” Stovik asked as he saw Taggart come out of the ready room. He was glad to see the man on his feet. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Captain Stovik : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Chris nodded. “Yes sir. A little woosey but getting better by the minute. Give me about 10 minutes and I can help with wounded here. I feel groggy and don’t want to make a bad call that could alter a person’s life.” : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Lt Commander Chris Taggart XO : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Stone was worried about the unknown ship. It could easily be someone hostile, specialy as it’s not hard to see that they are in trouble. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “We still have our shuttles in tact I hope. Maybe they can at least provide a bit of distraction while the Chernov is being repaired.” She suggested. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Lt. Andrea Stone, COS : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : OOC: I tried to find out what type of shuttles we’re even carrying.. i think it’s the F class. Unfortunately for us it has no weapons as far as I know. : : : : : OOC: I couldn’t find anything on them either, where did you find the F class specifications? : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : [O] Engineering to Bridge there’s an encryption on this chip. I need the code to move any further on this chip [O] : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Scott CE : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Stovik looked toward Loring,”We need the code, Commander. If you are thinking of with holding it so you may be allowed to assist, that is illogical, as I have already said you may assist under guard.” : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Mwezi : : : : : : : : : Sec. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Kane, Tac / Med : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Lt. (j.g ) Givens, sec/intel : : : : : : : : : : : : William looked at the Captain “Sir, we’ve lost gravity on parts of the lower decks, including the Medical bay.” He swiped over to the long range sensors “And the Mystery ship is approaching us estimated time for intercept is aproxomately” The a slgiht pause as the calculations finalised “Four hours” The facade of calm collection was starting to slip in the Young department Head. : : : : : : : : : : : : CSO : : : : : : : : : : “Noted, thank you, Lieutenant. Keep an eye on the alien ship and continue scans to ascertain who they are.” Stovik said. : : : : : : : : : : Captain Stovik : : : : : : : : Loring raised an eyebrow at the Captain. “Yet your officer has not released me or my wrists. I learned a long time ago to never give up every advantage when the future is uncertain.” He looked towards his Lupine captor. “So now, are you going to release me? Or do I need to exoercise.my ability to be silent?” : : : : : : : : -GM : : : : : : Once she had settled from having her shoulder popped into place she looked over to Loring and Mwezi. “I take charge of him now” she said as she made her way over to where they stood “and I would suggest you be silent for the time being” : : : : : : Lt. Givens, sec/Intel : : : : OOC: About what kind of shuttles we have… i checked Memory alpha and tried to pinpoint at what age we are at and what shuttles were available then. cca 2260-2270 Class F shuttles were used, it seems http://memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Class_F_shuttlecraft : : As much as I could find, the shuttles don’t have weapons until nearly year 2360 anyways. OOC: Well since this is JJ-verse the shuttles we’ve seen are, according to Mem-ALpha, were the Moore Shuttle-craft, Takayama, military or unknown versions of the Moore. The Moore seemed to be unarmed but according to Memory Alpha the Takayama has a Ventral weapons array. -Hjortur : :
OOC: Hmm, well being that the Chernov is a combat oriented ship I would think we would most likely have at least one or two shuttles with weapons. Btw I am kinda holding off on posting as I will LOA tomorrow until at least Saturday night possibly Sunday. Travis will be looking after you all during the changeover. Krys

: : IC:

: : Andrea moved to tactical console and checked if anything was working there. Shields, torpedoes,… anything in case the unknown ship turned out to be hostile.

: :

: : Lt. Andrea Stone, COS

:

: The console showed that shields we almost non existant, propulsion at minimum thrust, all weapons offline.

: -GM

Loring eye’d the Captain. “Once your officer releases my hands I will go put the code in myself. Otherwise I can remain her until our new friends show up and we find out if they are truely friendly.”

-GM

Will looked over at the man. A dark shadow formed in the back of his mind, ideas of violence where creeping up. He looked away quickly and stared at the console. Now was not the time to lose control.

CSO

“Lt. Givens, you and Ensign Harper will accompany our guest to Engineering to allow him to assist the CE in repairs. Keep a close eye on him.” Stovik ordered. “Commander, your status?” He asked as he turned to look at Taggert.

Captain Stovik

Chris cracked his neck back and forth and paused a moment before answering. Making sure he could see well and that his dizziness was gone. “I’m a bit sore like everyone else Captain, but I’m good to go.” He was about to say something else but an idea popped into his head. Turning towards the CSO. “Mr. Grey. Does our deflector still work? If so, we may be able to use it to our advantage. Also. Have some of your team run scans of the nearby asteroids, comets and planets for materials that we can mine to aid in our repairs.”

Turning towards the CoS. “Lieutenant Stone. How hard would it be to put guns on the shuttles? Because if we can’t get that working, then we might have to have shuttle door gunners in space suits.”

Turning back towards the Captain. “Captain. I think it would be great to send out some long range probes to gather information, but with that ship coming up, I think that we should wait until it passes or hopefully not hostile, so we don’t provoke them. Oohh! Are they close enough to hail?” His adrenalin was running high. Might be from the his he took and he was now realizing this and he calmly took a couple deep breaths and let them out slowly.

“Sorry about that. I’m ok now. But we should send out a hail on all frequencies declaring that we are just visiting and mean no harm....or something like that.”

OOC: Realized after reading this post again that I hit the submit button to soon and left some of the post out.

Lt Commander Chris Taggart XO

“See to it, Commander. If you do not require medical assistance and can man the bridge, I am going to head to medbay to have my ribs seen too.” Stovik said as he turned back toward Givens, Loring and Harper off to Engineering before making his way to the medbay.
