Keiko flared, “We did what we had to and I think I need to remind you that there are two universes at stake here! I’m part of Memory Omega, an organization that dates back to Ambassador Spock himself, we are working at the behest of the Bajoran Prophets, Frankly, Commander, where I’m from we outrank you!”

Stone gritted his teeth, “If that is so and I’m not for one second saying it is, why all this underhanded claptrap!”

The two stood staring at each other, emotions and frustrations running high.

Karina frowned. “I know about it being underhanded. And I agree that this just being swept away isn’t a good thing. But can we concentrate on getting my ship back first? Leave the interrogations second?” She paused a moment and stepped back, realizing she had stepped up to the pair instead of remaining silent like she’d promised herself she would. “Please....?” She had her hands balls at her side and her heart was racing. Part was the fact she knew, deep down, she was probably being insubordinate. But the other, the bigger cause, was her worry, concern …. and fear.

Lane had turned to consider Karina as she spoke with a slight incline of his head. He looked back towards the two, mild. “She has a valuable point. What’s done has been done and a resolution can be found later. That is, unless either of you consider the safety of an entire starship to be beneath these current grievances?” His eyebrows raised slightly. “This should also fulfill the requirement of stopping ‘more of the same’ for the meanwhile.”

Stone grunted, “We can agree on that for the meantime, but from here on in we do things above board, agreed?”

Keiko nodded with wary eyes. “We need two more runabouts to triangulate and increase the signal with the one we already… borrowed”.

Letting that one slide Stone turned to those assembled, “You’ve earned the right to see this through, jobs yours if you want it”.

Karina didn’t hesitate. “I can pilot one. I know the area where the anomaly is. I read it on my sensors once or twice but didn’t understand what it was.” She smiled and shrugged at Stone. “I was actually going to ask you about it when we met tomorrow. But now that I know what it is, I shouldn’t have any trouble finding and locking on it once more.”

She glanced at Ky’Larria to see if she would join her or take another of the shuttles. Part of her wanted both. She wanted someone else to volunteer as shuttle or runabout pilot so she could get her ship back. But she also wanted time with the woman to finish the discussion they had begun that morning in the mess.

Keiko smiled slightly at the support.

Lane, too, looked towards Ky’Laria. “Not my area,” he said and gave a small shrug towards West, “Not his.”

The towering figure of Ky’Laria looked, in her fitted black garb, ready for a fight, though her stance gave off a cooler stoicism. Slowly eyeing the gathered group, she eventually exhaled softly and said, “I can undoubtedly pilot one of your runabouts, though Starfleet would consider me untrained to do so.” Her gaze fell on the Commander. “I leave that information in your hands, Commander Stone. Do we break the rules to save the ship?” she asked coolly, a cynical sort of amusement barely showing in her features.

Stone nodded, “Considering all cadets have to have basic training in shuttlecraft operations I’m sure you can handle it. Plus there’s the fact that I’m coming with you. There’s no time to waste from the sounds of things so unless there’s anything else we need to discuss, I’d suggest that we head to the main shuttle dock”.

((going to forward us into shuttles… everyone mention who they are with… Lane and West, feel free to join any of the shuttles if you want))

Karina was hovering at the prescribed coordinates she had been given and was waiting for the others to get into their positions. She wasn’t exactly sure how this worked, but if it brought her space family back, she was willing to give it a try. =^=This is Niles, in position, Sir.=^=

(couple spots with me if anyone wants)

(OOC: I wanted to see how everyone sorted out, just put Lane and West with Karina.)
IC:
Lane and his seeming shadow watched from their space in the shuttle, neither experienced in piloting. The latter more grittingly interested in not revisiting the earlier coffee.

Stone replied from the “Ulysees” where he was accompanying Keiko. =/\= Thank you “Proteus”, we are in position also, “Calypso” are you in position yet?”

Junior Gamemaster Conspiracy Theorist
OOC One of you, feel free to jump in as Calypso’s pilot.

Thollin eased the runabout into the designated coordinates and set the thrusters to station-keeping. He frowned at the readout and nudged the craft a little more to the left. Once their momentum had stopped he tapped the communications panel.
=/\= Calypso is in position. =/\=

–Tholin, Eng.

Keiko’s voice came over the ether =/\= I’m sending you all the specs on how to set your deflectors to emit a neutrino steam, we’re going to send them in a loop from Ulysees to Proteus, Proteus to Calypso and Calypso back to Ulysees. This should create a triangular neutrino flows like water going down the drain. That should be enough to draw the wormhole to this location and overcome whatever is blocking it… I hope. Let me know when you’re ready to send the stream =/\=

Thollin grunted as he read through the specs. She was asking them to emit a high-frequency stream in a narrow bandwidth. While it was within the capabilities of the defector, it was near the upper limit. Deflectors were most accurate in the middle of their operating band, but became less accurate at the upper and lower limits due to increasing frequency distortion. If she’d asked him before they left the starbase he’d have recommended installing better phase discriminators in each runabout. But she hadn’t asked him, so they would have to do their best with what they had onboard. He quickly surveyed the deflector array.

=/\= Make sure you tie in the neutrino band-pass filter and set it to high-gain. That should ensure the emissions remain constant, =/\= he added gruffly.

Lane read quietly over Karina’s shoulder with creased brow. This was a science different than his own, but understandable broadly.
