“Yeah, I can see both sides of the situation,” Jason sighed. “If they are still under someone’s control, we don’t want to alert them, but if they have free will and believe they are helpless, we don’t want them doing something desperate.” He blinked as he noticed Michael suddenly became alert and gave his console his undivided attention. “Something happening we should know about?” he asked.

“Energy surge underneath a hill. Roughly one kilometre from where our fighters are now. Sir, I have no idea where that energy would’ve come from. Either there’s a generator in that hill or there’s something way deeper down.” He started scanning for any information he could get. “Sir, should we pull our fighters?”

“Negative, that’s not our call,” Jason shook his head. “Unless in your professional opinion something is about to overload and cause a massive explosion,” he added ruefully. “Duffy, connect me to the Olinksi, and the away team. Let them know what we detected and inform them that we’re going to rotate shield frequencies in case they try that microwave mind control weapon again.” He glance at the tactical console. “Toro, rotate shield frequencies. Make sure the shield harmonics can block the frequency of the microwave weapon or we’ll all end up beaming down.”

OOC: Just fyi we cannot do much of anything on the Olinski until Toro makes that call to the Olinski because we don’t know about it. However when we do Captain Parker tends to blow things up and check what it was afterwards.

The energy is channeling towards the destroyed emitters.

“Um… sir. The energy is moving towards the destroyed emitters. I don’t know what’ll happen if it tries to output through those emitters. That’s a lot of energy possibly with no strict control once it reaches the surface. Probably an automated restart. No Engineer in their right mind would do this. It’s too risky.”

-Lt Michael Gould, CE

“We have the Olinski and the away team Commander,” Ensign Shannon Duffy reported.

“Attention Olinski and away team,” Jason announced in his ‘stage voice’. “We’re detecting a massive energy surge coming from a hill approximately one kilometer from where the fighters are now. The energy is channeling to the destroyed emitters and we don’t know what’s going to happen when it gets there. Over.”

Jason Harn, XO

“Commander? Did the fighters get a good look at the emitters before they blew them to hell? Beam emitters don’t have to be large to cover a large area. Think about a ship’s shields. The emitting array is significantly smaller than the area covered. Maybe the emitters were repaired or replaced.”

-Lt Michael Gould, CE

As if reading Gould’s mind, Balfor’s disembodied voice was heard in the bridge.

=^=CAG this is Balfor, we need eyes on… hill to our southwest… observe and report. I don’t want those emitters coming back on line…=^=

=^=Ricochet, this is the Dragoon,=^= Jason added. =^=We need a copy of the visual scans you have the emitters before they were destroyed. Send them at your earliest convenience.=^=

Jason Harn, XO

=/\=Olinski, Dragoon, you’re not going to believe what I have eyes on. Automated repair drones. They seem to be equipped with replicators. New parts are being replicated real fast. Should we take these things out?=/\=

-Lt(j.g.) Ael Khev, Apex

“Oh son of a…” Michael gasped “Commander, we don’t have a choice. They may not just be repair bots. They may be boosting the range to hit the Olinski. We have to at least tell the Olinski to mod the shields.”

-Lt Michael Gould, CE

“Agreed Mister Gould,” Jason nodded, “but I had something a little more proactive in mind.” He hit a button on his chair. =^=Acknowledged Apex. Harn to Olinski, requesting permission to train the Dragoon’s phasers on the emitters. It’s not a permanent fix but it will buy us some time.=^=

Jason Harn, XO, posting far too early

Toro looked at the information “The Olinski needs to move back. We can intercept if we need to.” She said as she moved to train the phasers on the emitters “We may also need to take out those drones. If they are repairing the emitters it may become an issue.” She added.
