Main Sim - Bridge: A Mid-afternoon Anomaly.

Barclay’s eyes widened further. “Okaaaay… I don’t want to alarm everyone but there are a lot of life forms up and moving down there…”

At the same time, the ship’s sensors reported multiple transporter signatures targeting the ship and failing to do so.

“What is the status of the shields?” Luka demanded.

Luka

“Our shields are up, but if they are locking transporter beams on us, theirs must be down somewhere.” R’han started scanning. He wasn’t a science officer by trades, but shields being down is something he was very good at determining.

R’han

OOC Just to tie in the timeline and because I didn’t make it clear above, the shields are up but they’re acting as transporter inhibitors to stop the matter phasing that’s been happening shipwide. You’re open to energy attack but not to the dastardly transporters from below that we’re going to steal your people and send them to lock down on the planet below. I love it when a plan comes together.
Because Linds is still down sick I’d consider it a favour if you’d send people down below to help get Orvos and Isabelle out :-) plus you have an Orb to recover… and Barclay wants his ship back!

OOC: So to do anything we have to make them drop their shield… luke

OOC: I believe I can help? ;)

IC: While Aurora did her work, Orvos opened a channel to the Athena. =/\=Athena, the shields are about to come offline. We need landing parties ASAP! Do NOT use transporters. Whatever modifications you made to the shields have helped protect Athena from the compound’s own transporters. There will be 3 points of entry being my current location, and bays at the east and south ends of the compound. Be prepared for a fire fight. A Mr. Pierce Hamilton has awoken what I believe to be soldiers of some sort. Be aware, some of our counterparts are here. I’m leaving the channel open for any communications and questions that need answering.=/\=

Sensors showed four detonations on the surface and then the shields came down at the entry points below that Orvos had indicated. The sensors also showed a secondary effect… a seismic shift far below the base as a tectonic plate started to move…

OOC: Given that we’re a bit scattered with people, I’m going to have James join the away team, and I’ll play an NE as well to cover things.
IC:
Ghubari turned to Luka. “I need you down there now. Grab a team and go,” she said urgently. She wanted to go down herself, and given her background it might even make sense, but there was enough going on up here that she knew this was where she needed to be.

Luka nodded tersely, then headed for the turbolift. As she traveled, she decided who to call. =^=Commander Luka to Ensign Va ser la and NE Vasquez, meet me in the aft shuttlebay. I need you there two minutes ago.=^=

Luka, XO

“They are going to be out numbered down there.”

R’han

Barclay piped up, “I can handle the bridge if you want to go Obi Wan”, then he looked up from scanning the ship’s records, “You could also take your bartender, I’ve found that bartenders are surprisingly helpful in a fight”. Barclay smiled and steepled his fingers, ‘I’d come with, but alas I’m all brains and little brawn,” he looked at R’han, “best to leave me here on the bridge methinks”.

OOC Shameless plug for Marishka there :-) Not very subtle, I’m sleep deprived haha.

“I wouldn’t leave you unsupervised on the ship, you might not know which buttons to push.” Which was a polite rewrite of the actual concern which was he didn’t trust anyone, particularly someone from a mirror universe with his ship.

R’han CTO

Barclay waggled his eyebrows as if to say that he would definitely know which buttons to push.

OOC: Given we’re short on people (James and Meli aren’t able to stay on the ship), I’m going to make an executive decision and have R’han and Marishka join in. Yes, this is going to create drama later, which Ghubari will be well aware of. Stay tuned for that fun, haha!
IC:
Koraia quirked her eyebrows at Barclay and gazed at him intently, which she counted on as being rather uncomfortable after a time. Was it simply coincidence? “Don’t worry, R’han, I’m not going anywhere. I’ll man the conn. You join Luka and don’t be surprised if Marishka joins you. Mr. Barclay here makes a strangely cogent point.”

Barclay looked slightly disappointed, like a young boy who’s favourite toy had been denied him. He managed a slight smile and muttered: “By your command”.

R’han tilted his head in acceptance, “I wouldn’t bother with a stun setting Captain. The greater the consequence the more likely the compliance… particularly when you are dealing with possible sociopaths.” He smiled at Barkley, if he was a toy, he would leave him with a little present.

She rose to her feet and moved to where she could monitor things more closely. Which also allowed her to send Marishka a message letting her know that while it was not ideal for their other mission, her particular skills would be useful on the surface. She already knew their bartender was following everything that was happening, so explanations weren’t really necessary.

They hadn’t really discharged her from sickbay, but there had been nobody around to stop her from leaving. Strangely all nurses and doctors were elsewhere and Laraan had gleaned from passing conversations that the Athena was once again in the thick of it. The energy around her in this mirror universe felt alien to her and also off somehow, in short, there was no way she could rest now or even sleep. So she had slipped out of sickbay, quickly replicated a fresh uniform and was now rejoining the bridge unobstrusively, just as apparently a few others were about to leave? She edged her way to the aux science station at the back, automatically looking for Ghubari, her light grey eyes filled with worry.
