A call came from Gould’s combadge to Harn’s =/\=Do you hear that Commander? We’re live. Warp core is up and running. I recommend getting clear of the microwave device’s potential effective radius now that we have engines. I’ll keep working on getting other systems live.=/\= Harn couldn’t see it, but Michael was grinning ear to ear. His team had done it.

-Lt Michael Gould, CE

=^=Thank you Mister Gould,=^= Jason replied gratefully. “Lieutenant Turcio, shields up. Ensign Duffy, take us out, heading thirty two point six, mark four point five. Minimum impulse. Take us within transporter range of the Olinski.”

Jason Harn, XO

The Dragoon moved slowly out and the CIO was able to bring up the crew manifest and ship sensors showed where they were on the planet (or at least their combadges).

GM

Toro nodded “Shields up.. I have the crew manifest and have adjusted the sensors to show where each one is on the Planet…well at least where their comm badges are.” She said as she put it up on the main view screen and split the screen in to two sections.

CIO

“The sensors picked up the crew’s combadges on the surface?” Jason repeated incredulously. “Ensign Duffy full stop.”

“Yes sir,” Ensign Shannon Duffy repeated as her chubby childlike fingers danced across her console. “Full stop.”

“That means we have a chance to rescue them,” Jason declared. “Toro hail the Olinski. I want to run this by the captain before we try anything risky.”

Jason Harn, XO

Toro did as ordered =^=Dragoon to the Olinski.=^= She commed over “Comm channel is open Commander.” She said as she moved her hands across the panel in front of her.

CIO

=^=Dragoon to Olinski,=^=Jason reported. =^=Power has been restored and we’ve raised the shields to protect ourselves from Antioch’s microwave weapon,=^= he added as he realized what a colossal mistake he almost made. It wouldn’t do to raise the shields and move towards the Olinski without establishing communication. Not when the planet below had a MIND CONTROL weapon. Talk about a blunder. =^=Toro reports that our sensors are picking up the combadges of the Dragoon’s officers and crew down on the surface. I’m thinking that if we had some more medical and security personnel beamed over here we could start trying to recover our people. We wouldn’t beam them all up at once of course, we’d beam them up in groups to make it easier to process them.=^=

Jason Harn, XO

=^= Parker to Harn. Lets not beam anyone over yet. Com badges do not equal crew. Just combadges. Lets get a report from the Away Team first and then in small groups as you suggest,=^= Parker replied.

=^= Roger that sir. USS Dragoon standing by. Harn out.=^= He glanced over to the tactical station. “Toro send the coordinates of those combadges down to the away team on the planet. And to the fighters while your at it,” he added in an afterthought. “That should speed up the search and hopefully let us recover the
Dragoon’s crew before the bad guys make their next move.”

OOC: In the Star Trek: The Starfleet Survival Guide by David Mack (published by Pocket Books in 2002) I discovered that tricorders have subspace transceivers, allowing communication AKA file transfers between the starship and an away team. How about that?

Jason Harn, XO finally learning the value of communication

|OOC: Awesome research. So texting is possible.
Sidney

OOC: Is it an improvement from the technology we have today? :)

Kenson

Toro nodded as she sent the known coordinates to the away team and the fighters “Messages are with the various teams.” She said “With the weapon that they have on the surface do you think that the crew of the Dragoon would have taken off their badges and just left them lying around?” She asked knowing full well that this was not something that a crew would not do without something happening.

CIO

“It depends on how familiar our mind controllers are with Starfleet,” Jason shrugged. “Rather than setting the Dragoon for self destruct they just left it floating in a wide orbit of the planet. I’m getting the impression that there’s a supercomputer that’s using the mind control weapon as a security system or something. There’s a good chance that finding the combadges will help us find our people.”

Jason Harn, XO and a glass half full kind of guy
