: : : : : : : : : : Burnett tapped his comm badge, a mild smile on his face at the odd, but successful, stabilization procedure.
: : : : : : : : : :
: : : : : : : : : : =/\= Athena, the singularity has been stabilized. I'll need some time to verify that it will stay that way, but everything looks good. =/\=
: : : : : : :
: : : : : : : Wolfe motioned for their open channel to the Warbird to be muted whilst he answered the call, his voice tight =^= Good work, Mr Burnett. Every crewmember aboard that ship is to hold their positions. A Warbird has decloaked and I'm not entirely confident they are peaceful. =^=
: : : : : : : : : :
: : : : : : : : : : He turned to his engineering staff and the frighter crews, "prepare to return to the Athena, gather everything you brought ... I'd rather not have the Romulan empire thinking star fleet had anything to do with this. Also, don't expect to do much of anything for the next few hours since you'll be in medical containment."

: : : : : : : : : : Burnett
: : : : : : : : :
: : : : : : : : : Tresha groaned...medical containment...*wonderful* she thought as she imagined all the things she COULD be doing while she's sitting in quarantine. She started to collect her gear.

: : : : : : : : : Lt. Jg. Rai
: : : : : : : : : Tinkerer
: : : : : : : :
: : : : : : : : "You would think that with all of our advance technology that we could cut down the containment time to a more acceptable time." Rice whined as he secured his gear. "I'm ready to disembark LT."
: : : : : : : :
: : : : : : : : Ensign Rice, Engineer
: : : : : : :
: : : : : : : Wolfe (CO)
: : : : : :
: : : : : : Turning towards Rice as she gathered up her gear
: : : : : :
: : : : : : "They actually have cut down on time, I heard it used to involve days or weeks sometimes, and extreme exposure used to mean permanent health problems if not death."
: : : : : :
: : : : : : Ensign Bi'ran
: : : : :
: : : : : "Well, on second thought, we're going to be here for a bit longer. Apparently a warbird has decloaked and is coming up on the Athena. It wouldn't have announced its presence unless the Romulans felt confident in their tactical strength, my guess is a D'deridix class."
: : : : :
: : : : : Burnett grimaced and shook his head, he knew the specs of the Trafalgar class compared to that of the Type-B warbird, they would be outgunned by quite a bit.
: : : : :
: : : : : "You, come back over here." he said, motioning to the freighter captain that had translated the consoles earlier. "I need you to get me to a diagnostic screen to see what systems are operational now that the singularity is stable."
: : : : :
: : : : : Burnett
: : : :
: : : : "Chief, the Athena may need us to keep to make sure she has a fighting chance if this Romulan ship gets testy." Rice said, "Many of the best engineers are here."
: : : :
: : : : Ensign Jason Rice, Engineer
: : :
: : : Tresha gulped, she didn't like the newest arrival....she looked about nervously. "I don't like the sound of this..." she said uncharacteristicly grave.
: : :
: : : Lt. Jg. Rai
: : : Tinkerer
: :
: : "Unfortunately, the Athena can't beam us aboard without exposing them to an exposed attack. I can only presume the warbird decloaked within weapon's range."
: :
: : Burnett
:
: Tresha sighed, that meant staying aboard this bucket of bolts longer, she was eager to get back to the Athena and her comfort zone somewhere within the propulsion system jeffries tubes. "Are we safe here? I mean, are we exposed to an attack?" she asked aloud as she drifted over to the nearest panel and looked at the Romulan symbols curiously.

: Tinkerer

"That's what I'd like to find out. Without shields, propulsion, or weapons system we'll be easy targets. I'm trying to run a diagnostic to see what's functional."
