Keval was part of the lead of the party entering the mine entrance. He took out his tricorder to scan for power and unusual readings, while comparing the layout to what he learned back on Challenger’s bridge.“Hello,” he called out. “We’re from the Federation starship Challenger. Is anyone here?”
-Lt. Keval Vras, CE
=^= McMorran to Lieutenant Vras. Are you receiving me? =^= If a response was received, she continued. =^= The storms in the area won’t clear for at least twelve hours. Our best hope of maintaining communications, for now, is to strengthen our signals. Cadet Douglas should have everything needed to establish a signal booster and is instructed to do so with the aid of the engineering crew. =^=
(Cadet McMorran - Science, Crosspost)
Keval looked around again, and with no answer to his initial call out, he tapped his communicator to response. =^= Thank you, Challenger. We’ll see what we can do to boost power to communications. It’s pretty desolate down here, so any work is bound to be a source of excitement for all of us. Vras out =^=
Keval started by turning to Cadet Douglas. “Cadet, start work on boosting power to the communications system with our equipment. NE Sulok will give you a hand.”
The Andorian looked over at Cadet Halloway. “Halloway, I want to know what actually happened here that led to the distress call. See if you can access any of the station’s logs.”
As the cadets started their work, Keval went to the station systems terminal to see if he could get a status on the various systems in the facilty.

The team would quickly find that the systems were, as a whole, powered down. Further investigation would reveal that the generators were intact, however… it was just a matter of figuring out how to get the systems back up and running.

OOC: Fixing the split
“We clear?” Douglas asked presumptuously “Can we begin” leaning forward while asking this.

IC:
Scans showed that the station was powered down. A few moments spent following the power lines showed that they all went into door number 2. Once there it would be a trivial matter of starting the systems up in the correct, standard, order to prevent overloading. The panels were even clearly labeled: Habitat, Communications, Mining Operations, Emergency systems.

Keval followed the power lines to Door 2. Walking into the room, he scanned with his tricorder to make sure there was nothing out of ordinary, and then turned to the cadets with him. “Douglas, start up the systems. There doesn’t appear anything non-standard here, so start them up one-at-a-time in the order they are displayed, which is Federation standard.”
“Greiss,” Keval said, turning to the other cadet. “Monitor for power fluctuations with your tricorder. If anything starts to spike, call out and we can stop.”
-Lt. Keval Vras, CE
Griess flipped open his tricorder and began inspecting power flow. “I’m all set up. Just give Douglas the word.”
~ Cadet Winston Griess, Engineer
Douglas walks over to the first system and began to spool up the first system carefully to not damage anything. “Anything?”
(Cadet. Douglas. Science)
Griess stared intently at the fluctuations. “Habitat power systems are going steady.... Nothing irregular on my end, you should be able to proceed as normal.” Or at least he hoped…
~ Cadet Winston Griess, Engineer.
As the cadets continued to power up the systems, Keval pulled out his tricorder again and started scanning the rest of the area. The last thing he wanted was any surprises to come up while they were focused on the immediate problem.
(OOC: We should probably be okay with restoring all the systems in a single post. I’m sure the GM will come up with an appropriate form of punishment if it turns out something went wrong… :P)
