21:00 | Lt_Banning | ::@@:: |
21:02 | CaptMcCloud | Good evening, Crew. We shall drag our feet, just a little, to give our XO a chance to wake up. :: grins:: |
21:03 | Cdr_Hart | WAKE UP, CmdrDutcher |
21:04 | CaptMcCloud | While we wait, have you all read the brief and do we have any questions? |
21:04 | Cdr_Hart | Brief read, no questions. Still looking for CmdrDutcher |
21:05 | Lt_Andrews | ::chuckles:: Yes and no, Captain. Oh, CmdrDutcher |
21:06 | Lt_Banning | y/n, Sir, and I might as well join the CmdrDutcher party. |
21:06 | *** LtAmeliaMoore joined #usseagle |
21:06 | CmdrDutcher | ::AA:: |
21:07 | CaptMcCloud | I do believe she has woken. |
21:07 | LtAmeliaMoore | ::AA:: |
21:08 | CmdrDutcher | Sorry Yes I have awoken! Brief Read, no questions |
21:09 | CaptMcCloud Alright, Crew! Let's... |

21:09 | CaptMcCloud | CO > ::grabs a quick bite, as it is getting late, ship's time:: |
21:10 | CmdrDutcher | @ XO> ::walks out to bring thier guest back for a little talk:: |
21:10 | Cdr_Hart | CENG > ::beams back to the ship, with all the data from the station:: |
21:11 | Lt_Andrews | @ TAC > ::meets the XO and the Nigalan at the hatch, not hiding his disappointment at the XO:: |
21:12 | Lt_Banning | @ :: sitting at the science console aboard the Falcon.:: |
21:12 | LtAmeliaMoore | @ Nurse > ::almost wants to forget this and go back to the ship:: |
21:13 | Nigalan | @ Nigalan > ::boards the "enemy" ship. Looks around:: |
21:14 | Cdr_Hart | CENG > :: proceeds to the bridge, finds Lt. Noone at OPS, as Hailey has gone off-shift:: |
21:14 | CmdrDutcher | @ XO >[ Nigalan ] Welcome aboard. Please, have a seat. ::waves had towards the seating area:: Let's have a chat. |
21:15 | Lt_Andrews | @ TAC > :: merely nods to the Nigalan, as he will let the XO handle the conversation:: |
21:16 | Nigalan | @ Nigalan > ::cautiously takes one of the indicated seats:: [ XO ] What do you want here? Haven't you people done enough to us? |
21:16 | LtAmeliaMoore | @ NURSE> ::moves away from the seating ares to give them space:: |
21:17 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ CENG ] Welcome back, Tom. :: indicates his sandwhich:: Want to grab a bite before you do anything else? |
21:18 | CmdrDutcher | @ XO >[ Nigalan ] That's where you are incorrect, Sir. WE have done nothing but answer a distress call. Care to elaborate and tell me what happened? |
21:18 | Cdr_Hart | CENG >[ CO ] Excellent idea. :: looks over to science:: Hey, Baker! :: tosses her the tricorder:: |
21:19 | EnsBaker | SCI2 > ::almost misses the device, but manages to catch it before it hits the deck:: [ CENG ] Umm... Thanks, Sir. |
21:20 | LtAmeliaMoore | @ NURSE >[ TAC ] ::whispers:: Someone really did a number on this guy! |
21:21 | Nigalan | @ Nigalan >[ XO ] Like you don't know! Your people entered our space, and demanded we allow you to take over our space station. When we refused, you attacked us with that weird weapon of yours. We never stood a chance. |
21:22 | Cdr_Hart | CENG > ::heads back to the small break area and replicates a sandwhich.:: |
21:23 | Lt_Andrews | @ TAC >[ Nurse ] :: nods:: And they think it was us. I wonder if it has anything to do with the ship debris we came across. |
21:24 | Nigalan | @ Nigalan >[ XO ] Oh,now you're going to play all innocent? You are Starfleet, right? From the Alpha Quadrant? |
21:25 | Lt_Banning | @ SCI > :: listens to the conversation, then turns back to his console, entering in new commands:: |
21:25 | CmdrDutcher | @ XO >[ NIGALAN ] ::frowns slighlty:: I am not sure what weapon you are talking about, Sir. But yes we are Starfleet. But the Starfleet I know would not demand you hand over anything. |
21:25 | EnsBaker | SCI2 > :: starts to download the data from the tricorder:: |
21:26 | Cdr_Hart | CENG >[ CO ] ::comes out, with a sandwhich and a drink:: That was really strange over there, Captain. |
21:27 | Nigalan | @ Nigalan > :: glances around to the others in the shuttle, then back to Dutcher:: [ XO ] How many Federations are there? |
21:27 | LtAmeliaMoore | @ NURSE >[ TAC ] Something is definitely not right. |
21:28 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ CENG ] I can imagine. Nothing like a seemingly dead space station. |
21:29 | CmdrDutcher | @ XO >[ NIGALAN ] As far as I am aware, there is only one in this universe... unless whoever did this was not really from Starfleet |
21:29 | Cdr_Hart | CENG >[ CO ] :: shakes his head:: Not just that, Sir. It was everything, over there. Even the crew were wearing strange uniforms. I don't know if Starfleet approved, or not. |
21:30 | Lt_Andrews | @TAC > :: watching the Nigalan, nods to Amelia:: [ Nurse ] I think you're right. |
21:31 | CmdrDutcher | @ XO >[ SCI ] Banning I want a full scientific scan... I have a theory, but.. I need proof. |
21:32 | Nigalan | @ Nigalan >[ XO ] :: thrusts a hand forward, pointing at Dutcher's combadge:: [ XO ] They were wearing that same insignia on the uniforms. Just a little different from yours, but recognizeable as our attackers. |
21:33 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ CENG ] We are investigating the possibility we are in an alternate universe. The planet and station have a different quantum signature than ours. |
21:33 | LtAmeliaMoore | @ NURSE >[ NIGALAN ] The uniform was different or the badge? ::shakes head:: That can't be right, can it? |
21:34 | CmdrDutcher | @ XO >[ NURSE ] Unfortunately it can, but it poses another problem for us. |
21:35 | Lt_Banning | @ SCI >[ XO ] ::turns toward them:: I have the proof, you need, Sir. I had a hunch, myself, and have just done a deep scan on the land vehicle. They have a different quantum signature than we do, if that holds significance for you. |
21:35 | Nigalan | @ Nigalan > :: looks to Banning and narrows his eyes:: |
21:36 | Cdr_Hart | CENG >[ CO ] :: nods:: That makes sense. Now, when did we make this shift into an alternate universe? |
21:37 | CmdrDutcher | @ XO >[ SCI ] ::nods:: It does, Lieutenant. >[NIGALAN] It would appear that we have somehow crossed into your... how do I say this ... reality from our own. |
21:38 | LtAmeliaMoore | @ NURSE> ::Looks at Banning and then Dutcher totally confused:: |
21:38 | EnsBaker SCI2 >[ CO/CENG ] ::turns from her console:: Captain. I have readings back from the probe. The debris, we came across, is definitely from a different universe than us, but... other space debris, a little further out, matches our quantum signature. |
21:39 | LtAmeliaMoore | @ NURSE >[ NOIP ] Did I miss something important? |
21:40 | Lt_Andrews | @ TAC >[ Nurse ] :: says quietly to her:: A different quantum signature signifies that *someone* isn't in the correct universe. |
21:40 | CmdrDutcher | @ XO >[ BANNING ] Would you care to explain the findings to our guest? |
21:41 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ SCI2 ] So,... Are you saying the planet and space station are from another universe? |
21:42 | EnsBaker | SCI2 >[ CO ] As strange as that sounds, Sir,... Yes. |
21:42 | LtAmeliaMoore | @ NURSE >[ TAC ] ::raises both eyebrows:: But this is a planet so that must mean... either we slipped into their dimension or they somehow got into ours? |
21:43 | Lt_Banning | @ SCI >[ Nigalan ] Basically, Sir, while it may have been Starfleet that attacked you, it was not our Starfleet. We are from a different universe than you. Let me ask you, was Starfleet *ever* in charge of your space station? |
21:46 | Nigalan | @ Nigalan >[ SCI ] ::narrows is eyes:: No! It is *our* space station. Your Starfleet showed up about a month ago. they said they wanted to be friends. We were glad to have them... until they started demanding things from us, and then they were saying they could run our space station, and we could supply minerals and other raw materials from our |
21:47 | Lt_Andrews | @ TAC >[ Nurse ] ::nods in agreement:: I have yet to hear of a whole planet shifting universes. |
21:49 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ NOIP ] I wonder if there is still some kind of opening, that we are getting comms from *our* Space Station Nigala. |
21:50 | Cdr_Hart | CENG >[ CO ] What kind of weapon could have caused a whole planet to shift universes? |
21:50 | CmdrDutcher | @ XO >[ NIGALAN ] And when you refused..they did this to your home? :hakes head:: I can assure you, Sir. The Starfleet I am part of does not have this kind of weapon. |
21:51 | CmdrDutcher | @ XO >[ TAC ] Lt Andrews, please contact the Eagle and inform them of this ... development. |
21:52 | Nigalan | @ Nigalan >[ XO ] ::turns angrily toward Dutcher:: Then what the *&^#$ brought you all the way out here, so far away from your own damn home? |
21:52 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ CENG ] That is what we need to figure out, and... Can we reverse it? |
21:53 | Cdr_Hart | CENG >[ Co ] Any suggestion as to where to start? |
21:55 | CmdrDutcher | @ XO >[ NIGALAN ] My Starfleet are explorers and scientists, not marauders. And we came all the way out here because we heard a distress call. It is part of our standing orders to respond to all distress calls and try to help those in trouble. |
21:55 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ CENG ] :: nods:: We can start with that starship debris, out there. We will need to try and put that together, again, as best we can. See if it holds any answers. |
21:56 | Lt_Andrews | @ TAC >[ Xo ] Sir, if I might, may I make a slight correction? |
21:56 | CmdrDutcher | @ XO >[ ] TAC By all means, Lieutenant. |
21:57 | Cdr_Hart | CENG >[ CO ] :: shakes is head:: Talk about a king-size jig-saw puzzle. |
21:57 | CmdrDutcher | (that was weird) |
21:59 | Lt_Andrews | @ TAC >[ XO ] Thank you, Sir. [ Nigalan ]] Actually, Sir, in our universe, Starfleet *does* run the space station in orbit. We have for a couple decades, and it was a mutual agreement between Starfleet and the Nigalans. We responded out here because Starfleet had not gotten any regular reports from the station and they were not responding to hails. |
22:00 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ CENG ] :: nods:: I guess we better get to work on that. Were you ever any good at them? :: smiles:: |

22:02 | CmdrDutcher | Well, it seems the plot hat definitely taken a strange turn! |
22:02 | CaptMcCloud | We will pick this up in two weeks. I have my CGAux Division meeting, next week. Maybe, if I get my act together and get the log done and the recap posted, we can continue the conversation between the Nigalan and the away team, in a post. Do we have any questions? |
22:03 | Cdr_Hart | None, Skipper. |
22:03 | Lt_Andrews | No, Sir. |
22:03 | CmdrDutcher | No Sir! |
22:03 | Lt_Banning | None, Sir. |
22:03 | LtAmeliaMoore | No, Captain |
22:04 | CaptMcCloud | Well, then, I hope you all have a good two weeks. Stay healthy and safe, and remember to send thoughts/prayers to those in need. |
