She convinces P'ronflrr'ecx to transfer most of its essence into the statue on the planet below and to let her deal with the HORIZON's officers and crew. The entity accepts the proposal as it falls for Vymora's apparent hunger for power, so similar to its own. Vymora witnesses a huge beam of energy shoot from the HORIZON to the assumed bastion on the planet. ******************* ************************************************* ************************** USS HERMES CO: LtCmdr T'al GM: EJ ************************** *************************************************** ************************** Condor Squadron Commander ************************** Branch Admiral Earle Hayes. ************************** ***************** DS101 CO: Captain Alyza GM: Theresa ***************** No activity to report. ************************ ************************************ USS NIGHTINGALE CO: Captain Pol Canon GM: Marco ************************************** The Firemoth simulation on the holodeck gets slightly out of hand as computer generated Romulans with a mind of their own appear. Lt. Mao'Syllis walks right into a serious fight in The Swamp. While she takes out three of the maddened crew(wo)men Security Chief Park is nowhere to be found. Captains Fisher and Canon exchange a few pleasantries until LT. Hanson gets word of the bar fight. Already outside The Swamp Ben Austin notices the smell of real alcohol on a crewman. He and one of the sober technicians conclude that something most be terribly wrong with the replicators - and the holodecks - and the main computer core.. Security stuns the fighting crewmembers but Ben's initial investigation is cut short when all senior staff is called to the ready room. Dr. Patton diagnosed several crewmen with symptoms of acute alcohol consumption. In the meantime Desmond Park uncovers more trouble, starting with his malfunctioning comm. badge and progressing to several members of engineering who drank coffee from the replicators either delusional or unconscious, the sickbay door jammed shut and the Jefferies tubes to sickbay filled with poisonous gas. Mao'Syllis and Ben Austin end up stuck in a turbolift. In the meantime the holographic Romulans from the Firemoth simulation somehow mange to merge their program with several other simulations - taking the real, living occupants in there hostage. Whatever glitch in the computer is causing this, it begins to affect the holosuites of DS101 as well. Mao'Syllis and Ben Austin climb out of the turbolift only to find themselves in a dark corridor that spells new trouble ahead, especially since their comm. badges are not working either. In the main science office Ben finally discovers that a computer virus has infected both the GALE and DS101. Both officers set off to access a terminal in holodeck 1, hoping they can purge the system from there. Captain Fisher is surprised to find out that information on who called all senior staff to the ready room is not available from the computer. Together with LT Hanson he heads for main engineering through the Jefferies tubes. What they finally find in engineering is inconclusive at best. In main sickbay Dr. Patton experiences a power failure with sickbay being cut off from the main computer afterwards. Austin and Syllis reach holodeck 1 after taking the scenic tour through the tubes. They find that the computer virus is somehow linked to the name Karides. While trying to get access to the simulation they suddenly hear approaching footsteps. When no one shows up they decide to move themselves - right into a GALE security detail led by EEnsign Kortt. They too had tried to deal with the recent crisis. In main engineering LT Hanson and Captain Fisher succeed in disengaging the NIGHTINGALE from DS101 while Fisher fights off Lieutenant DeWinterīs amorous attempts. Afterwards they can watch the containment field of the warp core collapse. They decide to eject the core once they are as far as possible away from DS101. Locked up in the ready room Desmond Park discovers what is most likely the source of the NIGHTINGALE's troubles - an energy virus spreading through the ship. That moment the virus activates the transporter and Park materialises beside Ben Austin, Mao'Syllis and Korttīs group. When they notice that the GALE is adrift they try to contact LT Hanson but communication is erratic. Finally they decide that Park, Austin and Korttīs gang will get into the holodeck while Syllis is underway to main engineering. **************************************** **************************************** **************************************** Respectfully Submitted Don Fleet GM fleetgm-put the at symbol here -yahoogroups -put a dot here - com
