USS HORIZON
CO: Captain James Burke
GM: Ruud Visser
SitRep by: Suzi Trentin (Thanks, Suzi!)
******************
On the HORIZON, Sam tries to block the increasing harmonics with the same
white noise that is used in the protective headsets, but the harmonics also
affect the hull integrity and keep the crew from lowering their shields.
Epona believes the Telmarc are using some materials in their ships hulls
that dampens the noises, perhaps the same materials the Lúchrupan ship is
made of. But there is no knowing of that without an examination of the
Telmarc ships.
On the planet, Abbel Abalder is kept under close surveillance and on a
transporter lock, while Vymora checks the meeting place for traps and other
surprises. But the meeting with the Gironan First Minister and members of
her cabinet, the Telmarc ambassador, Gironan scientists and others is not
proceeding as expected as Telmarc soldiers take them all hostage after Burke
presents proof that the Telmarc are involved in the situation and only want
to mine the diamonds.
Epona leaves the HORIZON with her fleet of shuttles and runabouts while the
away team is taken hostage and decides to take a look ot the situation on
the planet herself as a jamming field prevents them from communication and
sensor anylysis. She blasts the replicator facilites that house the source
of the jamming fields, crashing her fighter in the second one after ejecting
the life pod from it.
Abbel Abalder is killed while trying to stop the Telmarc ambassador from
changing his plans.
Epona`s life pod lands in the sea, sinking down to a depth of more than 5000
meters, with no power left and no communication.
On the HORIZON, plans are worked out to stop the waves and incapacitate the
Telmarc and their arriving fleet, while a fleet of Gironan vessels departs
from Girona I. The First Minister has had it build, sensing that the Telmarc
would betray them somehow. The fleet is well provided and motivated but
inexperienced.
Vymora and her security detail use a chance to [[überwältigen]] their
captivators and Vymora presses the Telmarc ambassador for vital information,
getting Telmarc military command codes while nearly suffocating him.
Gironans and Federation ships join forces to trick the temarc into getting a
chance to use the codes, hoping to avoid a battle.
All the while Epona waits on the bottom of the sea to be rescued. The noises
are no longer affecting her and she watches organisms proliferate outside
the pod. But her prolonged stay there also frightens her more than she would
ever openly admit.
A SpecOps team under Arkanis leaves the HORIZON to get Epona back, although
none of the crew is fit enough to participate in such an endeavour. Epona is
very glad that Cady is among them.

*****************
Still in battle with the supercarrier the CURIE's shields are at 45% and
Bridge consoles are smoking. CURIE manages to score several hits on the
supercarrier, which absorbs the hits with its massive shields. The CURIE
continues to fire and hitting the supercarrier, seemingly without effect.
Suddenly the supercarrier begins to breakup, as if a threshold of damage had
suddenly been crossed. Large explosions ripped through its hull as the
CURIE backed off to escape the blast zone. Many of the supercarrier's
shuttles were not so lucky and fell victim to the violent explosion.
Brooks quickly scans the debris area looking for survivors. He finds his
lost crewmates aboard a damaged shuttle. They are quickly transported to
CURIE's Sickbay.
The CURIE does not escape unscathed. The hull is breached on three decks.
Those decks are quickly evacuated and repairs are begun. CURIE's warp core
is knocked off-line. Brooks promises it will be back on-line within three
hours (nrpg: which, following Scott's Engineering Rule #1 means about 90
minutes ).
T'al, Teel'a, and other injured are well cared for in Sickbay by Dr
Poynton. T'al muses about the possible alteration of the time line.
A rescued Kwani pilot, Gudi, reveals her conclusion that the supercarrier
was a Kwani ship sent from the future to destroy the Mayarans. Gudi
experiences a psychic connection with Bajj Marrek, one of the supercarrier's
officers. Marrek, now dead, faces the judgment of the Goddess. Repenting
his actions and with his love of Telrah once again filling his heart, Marrek
moves to the next phase of eternity in the arms of his Goddness.
Lt T'al is soon out of Sickbay, vision slightly blurry and antennae aching.
He still has a few more surgical repair to undergo before his is completely
healed and back on full duty status. Teel'a remains in Sickbay in a coma,
but Dr Poynton is upbeat about the chances for full recovery.
The Mayarians and Kwani governments agree to meet to hold diplomatic talks.
Gudi contributes significantly to these talks. Cpt Alyza also offers the
help of a Federation Diplomat. Gudi briefs the Federation Diplomat, Yiostra
Goedoe, about her race's Borg-like group conscience, how she came to
discover that the supercarrier was from the future, that the supercarrier's
mission was a pre-emptive strike to prevent the Mayarians from causing the
Kwani's destruction. Lt Stan the Man remains behind to assist in the
diplomatic meeting. The CURIE will pick him up at a later date.
Debris from the destroyed supercarrier is retrieved by the CURIE for further
study.
T'al makes a brief visit to the Bridge and talks with Cpt Alyza.
With repairs completed the CURIE departs the Mayar System to continue its
mission laying buoys.
Later with the buoys deployed a distress call from a Bolian freighter is
received. The CURIE alters course to investigate.

USS NIGHTINGALE
CO: Captain Pol Canon
GM: Doug
**************************************
The Nightingale reached the coordinates of the apparent warp-core
breach in the Loten system. They beam aboard a possible message buoy.
Ensign Tanari and Pel were left to play with their new toy. Tanari
questioned third party intervention in the technological developments
of the people of the system. She discovers the quintary star system
in the sector, and then worked on sensors to understand better what
happened. Dennis gave his input on the message buoy.
Lt. Hanson and crew soon learn that the buoy contains a bomb set to
go off in a few seconds. Canon calls for Red Alert, and Hanson,
Gabe, and Tanari have engineering cleared in case they are unable to
disarm it.
Ensign Lister informs the `bomb squad' that the red wire was
connected to a proximity sensor and advises against cutting it.
The crew realizes they must isolate the area and put of force fields
to shield the blast. Lt. Gabriel Pelgrims proved once again that he
is indeed a miracle-worker as he disarms the bomb, a bomb Gabe does
not think could be manufactured by the Gethi or Partans.
Ensign Meredith Tanari aided Gabriel in conducting research on the
Loten system after they successfully defused the bomb. Hanson went
to speak with the CO. Captain Canon proceeded to ream out his
officers until he found the underlying cause of the bomb incident.
Lister, Tanari, and Pelgrims explained themselves. As a result,
Canon decided to meet with the two sides in a neutral location - the
USS NIGHTINGALE.
Hanson and the others get ready for the meeting with the dignitaries
and don their dress whites. Ensign Lister, however, had duties to
perform. From his bridge station, he discovered an incoming missile
headed straight for the Gale. He raised the shields and took evasive
maneuvers in response. Hanson orders the next missile debris beamed
into a cargo bay for analysis.
Ensign Lister destroys one of the next incoming nuclear devices and
brings in the remains to a shuttle bay for Gabe to inspect.
Hanson gives over the command chair to Lt. Syllis and joins Captain
Canon and company in the shuttle bay. They soon find that the
missile is not nuclear in nature, but actually contains a dying
Bajoran Federation ambassador. They could not save her, so the Gale
crew gained a murder mystery on their hands. The Nightingale's XO
Dennis Hanson directed officer's Patton, Lister, and Tanari to begin
an investigation.
Hanson, Patton, Tanari, Pelgrims, and Lister meet later at a
busy `Swamp' to discuss their findings. At this time they are also
joined by Peligrims and Marcol Narai at their table. Post mortem
examination by lt. Patton shows that the Ambassadors body is
saturated with a unknown substance which is identified by ensign
Lister as being a Mineral Solvent used in Dilithium mining when
phaser bores are impractical to use.
The discovery of the Mineral Solvent leads to another hint to the
Ambassadors death. But will it be a useful one or is it just a blank?
