SNIP

Lance lookup to see the CE at a lost. He walked over to his screen and hit it hard it powered up and started to work. “ this old equipment you need to be rough with. Show it who’s boss”

Ensign Lance Von Hellsing (Helm/Wolf)

After a second or two, the console died completely. “Don’t worry about this, ensign, I’ll handle this console, try and see if you can get a status update from the other one, while i fix it.”

He then tapped his badge to reply. =/\=”Hey Kristi, glad to hear from you. Um.... there’s been a clear case of sabotage here. We’re trying to calibrate everything, but the console i’ve been working on died. I don’t know, maybe i misconnected something… there were many severed wires. And me without my tricorder.” =/\=

Lt. Mike Stone, CE

Lance looked at him “you need a tricorder” he went to his bag pulled a tool kit he pulled from the shuttle and a tricorder “I always bring back up” I always bring back up” he said giving the he CE the tool case and tricorder.

Ensign Lance Von Hellsing (Helm/Wolf)

“Yes, well my backup was with me in the pool.” Mike replied. “Thanks.” He said as he accepted the tricorder.

=/\= Stone to O’Larria, good news, I got a spare one from Ensign Hellsing. Mine got damaged when I beamed on the planet.=/\= He’ll tall her more about his advantues in the pool, and why he was wearing a size too small tracksuit.
He scanned the wires he fixed earlier.
=/\= So the power module has power, the reductor seems to be powered also, but the Afocal splitter has some wierd readings. Seems to drop every few seconds then return to nominal values. =/\= He explained to her what he saw.

He looked up from the console to T’pol. “Any idea how long we got, before the storm really hits us?”

Lt. Mike Stone, CE

OOC: Who’s T’Pol? :P
OOC: Eh, i’m bad with names....
Miha

IC: T’Prek quickly brought up an atmospheric scan to check. “The storm will impact us in 3 minutes, 43 seconds. I would suggest that more haste is required…” he added dryly as he peered at the rest of the readouts.

Stone had damaged his equipment?

That statement, in itself, made Kristi curious. But she’d get the story later. Right now the storm was bearing down and they needed help.

=^=Ok, Chief… =^= Kristi sat down at the console and started looking at what info she had. =^= Double check your power module. Make sure the readings are stable there. You could have fluctuation there that’s magnified at the splitter.=^= She moved a bit further up the line. =^=The other option is that your Afocal has a burr short in the split. If everything is good to there, pull the coupling sheath back to see if the insulator has melted at the inversion spot. They may be back feeding against one another. =^=

It was a long shot, but she hoped simply replacing the small shielding sleeve inside the splitter would stabilize the power thru it. She didn’t realize she was biting her lip while waiting for his response.

Kristi
Engineer

The power source was good. Mike checked that before. No power usualy ment a device that required it wouldn’t work, he learned that quick as an ‘engineer’.
Peeling back the insulator however was something he hasn’t done yet, and as he did he regreted it instantly. The thin metal held back more then just an eye sore.

=/\= Oh god does this smell bad. Everything is melted behind the insulation.. I guess we were lucky the console didn’t catch fire or exploded. I’ll attempt to make a bypass and hopefully it’ll work at least through the storm. =/\=

Not to get electrocuted, he deactivated the power module. “Lance, can you hand me the small laser cutter from my toolbox.... at least i hope it’s still working.”

Lt. Mike Stone, CE

Mother Hen

Lance found the needed tool and checked to see if it worked it did. He handed the tool to the engineer pulled a small pad from his bag a few minutes typing away on it then he brought up a schematic for the weather station. “ I just pulled these schematics before I came down I hope they will be useful” he hand the pad to the engineer.

Ensign Lance Von Hellsing (Helm/Wolf)

Kristi laughed. =^=Wow… if it works that good,
keep a piece of that insulation, boss. We can use it on the walls of a certain crewman’s quarters. The one who’s trying to create an additional ‘all hands lounge’ in the Junior Officers’ passageway.=^=

On more than one occasion Stone or another senior officer had been called to clear out the hallway and quarters of a crewman who thought personal gatherings could extend out into the common areas of the ship. It had wakened Kristi just a couple nights ago.

=^=If you can get the power to the array, at least, were can realign it to help break this front about to crash down on you. =^=

She hoped it didn’t get to much worse before they were able to fix things.

Kristi
Engineer

The cutter did it’s job, but now it was time to fill up the gap. The circuit that was behind the insulation wasn’t that important, at least in Mike’s eyes.
He quickly looked through his toolbox, to find something to replace it with. For a second he looked up from it at T’Prek, who was getting impatient.
“We’re getting there.” Mike said simply.

After he found a rather large nail, he took a hammer and hammered it for a bit, then inserted it where the circuit used to be.

“Um you may want to stand far away, as I switch this on.”

The station was small though, so if it exploded… it would hurt for sure.

With his eyes shut, Mike flipped the switch that activated the power array. No shower of sparks appeared, so Mike opened his eyes again.
“Ah, it’s working.. sort of.” he said. The console worked, but the display was rather dim. “Ok, i think i can work with this.”

=/\= Stone to Kristi.. I think we’re making progres now. Is there anything Viking can do to speed up the sinchronisation process.. we only have what.. 1 minute? =/\=
He looked at T’Prek again, who probably knew exacly how many seconds, till the storm hit them.

Lt. Mike Stone,CE

T’Prek checked his readings again and nodded. “1 minute 43 seconds Lt, anything we are going to try needs to be done now.” he said dryly.

Mother Hen

Soon a Beep came from the Computer terminal that Lance was working on the computer started to speak =^= main power restored at 75% System syncing with other weather stations at 80% starting system rotation storm dissipating at 50% 45% =^= soon the Weather outside was coming down it was just up for them to keep the system running until the storm was completely gone

Ensign Lance Von Hellsing (Helm/Wolf)

“ well he is cheerful” Luna said as she came back into the station. “ the rain is here on and i didn’t see anything” she said . Water dropped off her wings onto the floor.
Ensign Luna

“We have the system working,” Mike said “so you can hunker down with us until the storm calms down complately.”

He continued to monitor the syncronization and the console he repaired. “With any luck we can all leave in a couple of minutes back to the colony.”

Lt. Mike Stone, CE

Lance pulled a water bag from the shuttle and relaxed as he was drinking the ice cold water it was very refreshing. He held up the bag “you guys want some Fresh water” he called out as he took a set in a chair.

Ensign Lance Von Hellsing (Helm/Wolf)

“I’m covered in fresh water and freezing no thank you” she said glaring at him. Luna did not like the cold.
Ensign Luna

By the time the message reached Kristi and she checked, the storm was more than 50% gone. =^=Stone, you got this. Good job, boss… not bad for twine and panel glue, eh?=^= She laughed and then leaned back and let out a breath she had been holding. She was pretty sure she could have teleported him to the ship if need be. But she couldn’t have done everyone at once. It was the only reason she hadn’t. Rescuing him wouldn’t have done either of them, or the planet, any good.

He may have kissed her and apologized in his office. But on his return, she would do the kissing. And this time there would be no apologies.

Composing herself as she realized where her mind had gone, she tapped the console. =^=Engineering to bridge, I’m sure you can see it. Station operational and weather subsiding.=^= She was pretty sure they had been monitoring. But she knew Mike would have done the same thing and informed them. Her mind’s voice chided her for calling her super by his first name. Yes, she decided, they needed to have a long talk once he got back.

Kristi
Engineer

Mike interupted Kristi’s thoughts by giving her another call. =^= Stone to Kristi, all looks good on our end. Well almost everything. Do you have any idea where Lt. jg.Akaba and our CO are? There’s something urgent matter we need to discuss with them. Of course after we pick up our med team with a wounded crewmember. We’ll also need our second shuttle to get our first one. It’s been trashed. =^=

Normally a shuttle so damaged would simply be replaced by a new one. But by Mike’s experiance their new shuttle would arrive somewhere in the next 2 to 5 years. It was faster to simply fix it, or use it for parts. Or perhaps the colony could spare one, a sort of reward for helping them.

Lt. Mike Stone, CE

Lance looked up ”I was the one Who was flying the shuttle down everything was fine until I passed through the Atmosphere and got hit by a ion bolt. Most of the main systems went off-line I managed to put it down in the marsh on Maneuvering thrusters only. All the medical supplies are still good, spare tricorders, Fresh MRE’s and water. I am sure I can get that shuttle flying in a day or two with the spare parts I brought”

Ensign Lance Von Hellsing (Helm/Wolf)

Kristi stifled a giggle as Hellsing quickly tried to recover. =^=Copy, Chief. I’ll send someone to fetch you. And I’m not sure where Captain is but I’ll send word to him you’re looking. =^=

A sigh of relief left the engineer as she heard they were well. Tapping a request to the native for a rescue crew and second shuttle, she also tapped her command for the Captain. =^=Engineering to Captain, Chief Stone and away team are safe. But he wishes a word with you and requests a shuttle and rescue crew. Coordinates sent to helm.=^=

Kristi
Engineer

Hellsing was setting intill he released he has not eaten in a long time he grabbed his bag and pulled and MRE. “Hey I have some MRE’s if you guys need food” he said holding a few of them.
