[9:52][DOIC]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:** The episode opens on a still shot of the massive, ancient Artesia gateway, suspended in the star-spattered darkness of space. The Pilgrim can be seen passing between Artesia and the camera..
[9:53][DOIC]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:before our view focuses on the ship, following it as it makes its way toward the edge of the system with nacelles gleaming behind it. As it streaks off into warp, T’Pang’s log could be heard as a..
[9:53][DOIC]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:voice over… *
[9:55][DOIC]T'Pang@Demoncheru:Captain's Log, Stardate 98731.76 The Pilgrim is leaving Citadel as part of a task group assembled to investigate myterious signals that could potentially be Tanausan ring gates
[9:57][DOIC]T'Pang@Demoncheru:Specifically our orders are to investigate our assigned systems, determine the origin of the signal and then regroup with the task group for further orders
[9:59][DOIC]T'Pang@Demoncheru:One positive development is that command has reassigned Ain Laudrenate to the Pilgrim as a Tanasauan expert. I can not help but, believe her prescence here will be most beneficial. End Lo
[10:00][DOIC1]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*checked the status of the targetign arrays
[10:00][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*T'Ghor keeps up long range sensors spun up, checking the path to their assigned systems.
[10:00][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Eren] *The trill was practically bouncing in her chair as they warped out of the system.* "Maker, this is exciting!
[10:00][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"...It is?
[10:00][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"it may be far more exciting than any of us wishes for.
[10:01][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Eren] "Of course it is. We're heading to the source of a signal that could be a ring gate to another part of the galaxy... even a connected system.
[10:01][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"if any of those signals proves to be an actual ring gate,
[10:01][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"And it will most likely attempt to kill us with a high probability of success, yes.
[10:02][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Not my type of excitement. Finding a dead civilization and learning they used the bones of their dead as butt plugs from pottery shards is more my speed.
[10:02][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--gives T'Ghor a look-
[10:03][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Eren] "This -could- be from the last war, a part of Tanausan culture that they've forgotten in the last two million years. Or one they're just starting to remember.
[10:03][DOIC1]Aquila@Captain_Rien:I beleive you would have discovered the cause of the civilizations demise with that revelation
[10:03][DOIC1]Valkriss@Isis:-thinks- Locate another ring gate..beam aboard it and blow it up...while being shot a the entire time...-shrugs- Im i
[10:03][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*Is watching his sensors.* "As I said... I prefer my discoveries a bit less kill-y.
[10:04][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ain] "There is nothing in our history, at least nothing in the history I learned, that would suggest they had access to these ring gates. They have to be new.
[10:04][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"if this gate isn't active, it may provide a unique opportunity.
[10:04][DOIC1]Aquila@Captain_Rien:The gates themselves may not be new
[10:04][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"They may very well be an old toy given to the younger sibling.
[10:04][DOIC1]Aquila@Captain_Rien:But tanausan access to them out of necessity
[10:05][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Eren] "Right. They could be the Chosen's, or the Zhyx's, or... some other species we never heard of.
[10:05][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Let's hope the big brother is not around to clobber us.
[10:05][DOIC1]Aquila@Captain_Rien:The weapons on the one we took down were far below standard tanuasan technology
[10:05][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Well we wont know until we investigate.
[10:05][DOIC1]Aquila@Captain_Rien:With the exception fo the large gun emplacement
[10:05][DOIC1]Aquila@Captain_Rien:Which could have been retrofitted
[10:05][DOIC1]Valkriss@Isis:Well i had nothing better planned for this evening captain -smiles to her
[10:06][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"that is good Valkriss, i would hate to make you cancel your plans.
[10:06][DOIC1]Valkriss@Isis:-nods- Most consideraste of you Ma'a
[10:07][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--nods-
[10:07][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Tamin] "Approaching the first signal point now, Captain.
[10:07][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Helm what is our ETA to our first waypoint?
[10:07][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"If you do end up seeing a tanausan, give it a kick in the balls from me, commander.
[10:07][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Eren] "She'll do one better and shoot them in them.
[10:07][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--gives Tamin the look she usually reserves for Valkriss-
[10:09][DOIC1]Aquila@Captain_Rien:Single registtered kirtascaan freighte
[10:09][DOIC1]Aquila@Captain_Rien:Other than that clear scopes
[10:09][DOIC1]Valkriss@Isis:Another 'crusade carrier' perhaps Marcus
[10:10][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Eren can we get a lock on this signal?
[10:10][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Clear on my side still.
[10:10][DOIC1]Aquila@Captain_Rien:Not likely they are respondign to IFF and on their registered flight pat
[10:10][DOIC1]Aquila@Captain_Rien:This would be a stop to allow engines to cool before returning to ftl
[10:10][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Eren] "Signal appears to be originating from a gas giant in the system ahead, ma'am.
[10:10][DOIC1]Valkriss@Isis:-nodnods
[10:11][DOIC1]Aquila@Captain_Rien:Nothing detected could simply mean it is inside the gas giants atmosphere and masked
[10:11][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Helm, lay in a course for that gas giant.
[10:11][DOIC1]Aquila@Captain_Rien:I suggest we approach under yellow alert
[10:11][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Tamin] "Aye, ma'am.
[10:11][DOIC1]Valkriss@Isis:I concu
[10:12][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"That is likily a good idea Miister Aquila.
[10:12][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"take us to yellow alert.
[10:12][DOIC1]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*he pushe dhte yellow alert button
[10:12][DOIC]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:** Across the ship, the lighting shifted to reflect a change to yellow alert. *
[10:13][DOIC3]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:Yellow alert...look alive folks
[10:14][DOIC]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:** The Pilgrim leapt out of warp on the edge of the system, revealing it to have twin suns locked in a gravitational dance at its center. Tamin took them in toward a large, angry red planet with a..
[10:14][DOIC]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:sparse, rocky ring. *
[10:14][DOIC3]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Brandt] "You too, Sulok. No playing dead.
[10:15][DOIC1]Valkriss@Isis:-nods some- Why that is rather angry as it is lovely lookin
[10:15][DOIC3]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Sulok] *He just looked at Brandt with an arched brow.
[10:15][DOIC1]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*continues to monitor his scanners
[10:16][DOIC3]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:Mister Brandt, I am confident that Mister Sulok is not dead
[10:17][DOIC1]Aquila@Captain_Rien:All sto
[10:17][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Helm all stop.
[10:17][DOIC1]Valkriss@Isis:Helm all sto
[10:17][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Tamin] *She hit the button to cause the ship to lurch to a halt.
[10:17][DOIC1]Aquila@Captain_Rien:Captain I am detecting aroudn a half a dozen of the asteroid turrets
[10:18][DOIC1]Aquila@Captain_Rien:In orbit around the planet. They do not appear to be powered up
[10:18][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--gives Valkriss that look-
[10:18][DOIC1]Valkriss@Isis:-looks at T'Pang a little sheepishly
[10:18][DOIC1]Aquila@Captain_Rien:It woudl suggest there is a ring dormant within this planet's atmosphere
[10:18][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Eren] "I agree... if it was active, there'd be a lot more defenses.
[10:18][DOIC1]Aquila@Captain_Rien:Presents an opprutunity
[10:18][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Indeed.
[10:19][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"That is probably a good indication they are hiding something important.
[10:19][DOIC1]Aquila@Captain_Rien:To get intelligence on a dormant ring and determine its actual origin
[10:19][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"And it also deprives them of a nice toy close by.
[10:19][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*He turns his sensors to start watching it too
[10:19][DOIC1]Valkriss@Isis:-frowns
[10:19][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Eren] "I doubt they could get those close to activate it without Artesia obliterating them with her space cannon.
[10:20][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*this close )
[10:20][DOIC1]Valkriss@Isis:Why would trhey not go actrive..surely our approach was detective if they were activ
[10:20][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"it only presents and oppotunity if we can get close enough to study it without activating it.
[10:20][DOIC1]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"The mayflowers cloakign device
[10:20][DOIC1]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"May provide method of ingress
[10:21][DOIC1]Valkriss@Isis:Im game to try Skippe
[10:21][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Eren] "It would beat having to spend the next few hours methodically taking out the asteroid turrets.
[10:21][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"The Mayflower would still have to uncloak to study the object.
[10:21][DOIC1]Valkriss@Isis:That would be fun too Ere
[10:21][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Yeah. Maybe one of our gearheads can hack into the turrets once we're close?
[10:21][DOIC1]Aquila@Captain_Rien:Mayflowers claok si now a standard one captain
[10:21][DOIC1]Aquila@Captain_Rien:They did not reinstall a phase cloak
[10:22][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"well then I guess the Mayflower it is then..
[10:22][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Okay, Eren, now -this- is exciting, I admit...
[10:22][DOIC1]Aquila@Captain_Rien:But i beleive it may be best to get a team on baord a ring station if it is there
[10:22][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*He shuffles around in his seat.
[10:22][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Eren] "Yeah... exciting." *She eyed the Klingon.
[10:22][DOIC1]Valkriss@Isis:Wont be my first trip aboard on
[10:22][DOIC1]Valkriss@Isis:-smirks at Eren- Marcus might disagre
[10:23][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Eren] "We can compare with what we saw on the other one, see how much was Tanausan retrofitting and how much was already there.
[10:23][DOIC1]Valkriss@Isis:I agree...if it was abandoned in the last war...might be very useful intel aboard on them...or on whos tech this truly i
[10:24][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"And we can see if we can find data on any other ones it may be connected to.
[10:24][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Maybe even a map.
[10:24][DOIC1]Valkriss@Isis:-nods to T'Gho
[10:24][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"And also, anything the ccrew may have left behind..." *Shuffles in his seat more
[10:24][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Alright Valkriss put your Mayflower team together.
[10:25][DOIC1]Valkriss@Isis:Vera have Teeth prep the Mayflower..
[10:25][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Gayle] "Aye ma'am.

[10:26][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*Nods to Valkriss.
[10:26][DOIC1]Valkriss@Isis:=^= Valkriss to L

[10:26][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Yes, Commander.

[10:27][DOIC1]Valkriss@Isis:-to Tpang- We will stay in constant contact once we are sure such com will not trip their defenses captai
[10:27][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*marcus grabbed a pdp7
[10:27][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Brak] *He arrived and got on his stepstool.
[10:27][DOIC3]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:Alright, who wants to come along
[10:27][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*and started suiting in the delta armor
[10:28][DOIC3]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Brandt] *He immediately raised his hand.
[10:28][DOIC1]Istrin@the5of43:=^= No, get suited up. You're coming with
[10:28][DOIC1]Valkriss@Isis:any last moment orders Ma'am
[10:28][DOIC3]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:*Li sighs.* Alright...Mister Sulok, you have engineering
[10:28][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*grabbed the helmet and an explosive kit and headed to the mayflower
[10:28][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] =/\= "Well, just keep jiggling and I'll see you there.
[10:28][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Don't do anything stupid.
[10:28][DOIC3]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Sulok] "Yes, sir.
[10:28][DOIC3]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:Come along, Brandt
[10:28][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*Waits for Valkriss in the lift.
[10:28][DOIC1]Valkriss@Isis:-smirks- No promises...see you soon ma'a
[10:29][DOIC3]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*Brandt practically skipped over to get a tool kit.
[10:29][DOIC1]Istrin@the5of43:*he looked back at T'ghor
[10:29][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:Teeth
[10:29][DOIC1]Valkriss@Isis:-enters- Mayflowe
[10:29][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:Any surprises on preflight
[10:29][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*marcus set the helmet down next to the copilots seat
[10:29][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*Walks in, starting to kit up.
[10:30][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Brak how close would you need to be to target the turrets?
[10:30][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Teeth] "LIeutenant." *He gave Aquila a nod.* "Nothing to report... though some idiot was playing Abba on the shuttle radio while working on it.
[10:30][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Teeth] "It's an offense to the ears when it blasts from this thing...
[10:30][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:-suits up in her old armor and secures a pdp7 and her sidearm
[10:30][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Commander, may be a good idea to recommend sealing up before going on station.
[10:30][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"We don't know if there is any life support on it.
[10:30][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:Hazzard team..double up on demo charge
[10:31][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Brak] "We'd have to get in orbit, ma'am.
[10:31][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:Very wel T'Gho

[10:31][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:-makes a face- Abba...good lor
[10:31][DOIC5]Istrin@the5of43:*Istrin got his gear ready and waited for the others
[10:31][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*T'Ghor starts closing up his armour's seals.* "Abba ain't so bad. Me and Blaine would karaoke it.
[10:31][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:Certain songs are not disagreeable
[10:32][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"right, I only ask in the event those turrets go active and pose a threat to the Mayflower and her crew.
[10:32][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:...well i do ..like Super Troope
[10:32][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:-is forced to admit

[10:33][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Tamin] "We'll keep an eye on them and I'll be ready to take us in if they need backup, ma'am.
[10:33][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:That is the aim of pop music
[10:33][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:To be catchy
[10:33][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:-smirks to Marcus0 Insidious..isntit
[10:34][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:Quite. Effective. I still have preference for gaulish music
[10:34][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Brandt] *He jumped into the shuttle cheerily, waving to the others.
[10:34][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:And Led Zepplin
[10:34][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"For now we maintain our distance and play possum.

[10:42][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:Okay people..we are in the pip
[10:43][DOIC]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:** The Mayflower coasted down toward the raging red giant. They pass by a number of asteroids, all which appear quite innocuous at face value. *
[10:44][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*As they start flying, T'Ghor scans, trying to see if the station is powered and if the listening arrays can catch their comms.

[10:46][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"It is possible the station is in a compact state while dormant.

[10:47][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:Cloak likely ineffective soon

[10:48][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Teeth] "If we get deep enough they may not be able to see us." *He nodded to Aquila.
[10:49][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*T'Ghor starts trying to time the power source.
[10:50][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"I have an interval on the power source.
[10:50][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Six seconds powered down, then one second active.
[10:50][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:It does seems as a struggl
[10:52][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Or it is timed, somehow. But I am not certain to what end.
[10:52][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Some strange power conservation method?
[10:52][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:Detecting ancient turrets all powered down and degrade din atmospheric forces
[10:52][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:But they could also be low powered projectile turrets
[10:52][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:Time taking its toll then

[10:53][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"I am trying to see the degradations of the metals.
[10:53][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:Or that we have on record
[10:53][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*He is studying the metals that the turrets and the station are made from, trying to figure out how long have they gone untouched.
[10:53][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:-nds- As we suspected the

[10:56][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"It is quite the sight.
[10:56][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] "Looks like someone shot that to shit a long time ago.
[10:56][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:The fact it is still here...says muc
[10:57][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"Indeed.
[10:57][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Everyone, make sure you have your armours properly sealed up and have your magboots on.
[10:57][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"The station has zero atmosphere.

[10:58][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:Gravity
[10:58][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:What are we looking at where it is in the atmosphere
[10:58][DOIC5]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:*Li doublechecks his boots.
[10:59][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"No real gravity to speak of too. Will definitely need the magboots.
[10:59][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"The life support has been busted to bits long ago.
[10:59][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:How is that possible
[11:00][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:how is it defying the gas giant then
[11:00][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:SHould the station not have a directional gravity based off the axiss tot he gas giant
[11:00][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:-nods
[11:00][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:I suppose that is a mystery
[11:00][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"I said, no real gravity to speak of. As in, nothing that would help us move.
[11:01][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:Not for lon
[11:01][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"It has very very little gravity.
[11:01][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:We will find it out insid
[11:01][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*checked the gods G on them

[11:05][DOIC5]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:*Li gets up.
[11:05][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*With a harsh CLUNK they could feel the Mayflower landing on the marred surface of the station.
[11:06][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*aquila entered the lock
[11:06][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] *She followed right behind him.

[11:07][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*He gives the station a scan from the inside, trying to map it out or find security systems.
[11:07][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:We haven't left the ship t'ghor
[11:07][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:-smirks some at that
[11:07][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"I know. I am just warning.
[11:08][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Can't really determine the presence and status of the security systems from here... Guess we'll check from insied.

[11:09][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*Stands up and goes to the rest of the group.
[11:09][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:Can you get us in
[11:11][DOIC5]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:We'll need to walk along the hull of the station to get inside
[11:11][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"I -hated- the spacewalk in the academy.
[11:12][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:Alright

[11:12][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Or up... or to the left or right... or anywhere.
[11:12][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*He seals up and taps as well.
[11:12][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*Ettore and Brandt sealed up and tapped.

[11:13][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"You sleep with Ilya, you've obviously got more courage than sense.
[11:13][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:-chuckles
[11:13][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*After a few moments the door dinged to show they were safe to exit.
[11:14][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*he hopped out on to the station and secured magboots
[11:14][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:-stepped out and secured by magboots once landed
[11:14][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] *She jumped out after him.
[11:14][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"It would seem that whatever is countering the gas giants gravity extends outside the hull
[11:14][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:-shakes her head still marveling at this
[11:14][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] "Well it's supposed to be a ring gate... right? Or a piece of one, anyway.
[11:15][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*Jumped out after the vanguard.
[11:15][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:(All roll for my amusement.
[11:15][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:Better view this time around eh Ish
[11:16][DOIC5]Istrin@the5of43:Yep.. No one is shooting at us yet
[11:18][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:-looks up and staggers some trying to regain her footing..bowing to her own stupidity of making a rookie mistake- Whoa who
[11:18][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*Reaches out to steady Valkriss.* "Easy there.

[11:19][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"Oh... Careful, try to stick to area's of the hull moslty intact.
[11:20][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"If whatever is counterign gravity is tied to teh metal... a wrogn step could lead to fallign upwards.
[11:20][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Right.

[11:20][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:-nods regains her footing and proceeds on
[11:20][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:-as best she can
[11:20][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*There were many panels missing from the hull below them, and ahead they could see a rather degraded looking hatch.
[11:21][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*Follows after Valkriss, stepping with an ease and grace he doesn't seem to have when on actual land.
[11:21][DOIC5]Istrin@the5of43:*he moved onward carefully
[11:21][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"On me.
[11:21][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*he started to try to lead them through the path available that still had hull platting
[11:22][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:Here s some food for thought...do we even know if this was Apostate or ..even the allies back the
[11:22][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"No way to know yet.
[11:22][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] "What, some neutral party making doorways all over the galaxy?
[11:23][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*He follows after Aquila.* "Neutral party, or the old alliance.
[11:23][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:No....the apostates fought an Alliance back int he last war as wel
[11:23][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"We can't know till we enter and see if we can scrounge -anything- up.
[11:23][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:Just because the Tanausians are Apostates now...doesnt mean this race wa

[11:24][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*Slowly and methodically, they made their way around the ruined panels and to the hatch. The door mechanism did not appear to be attached any longer.
[11:24][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"Highly unlikely she blinked into existance
[11:24][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"In this galaxy? I wouldn't put it past her.
[11:24][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:She looks like a polished ring of marbl
[11:25][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:and no one built Spo
[11:25][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"And a doomsday machines are carved out of neutronium

[11:25][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"Perhaps.

[11:26][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"We have demo charges, no?
[11:26][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:Seeif it has powe
[11:26][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"yes but perhaps li and brandt can get in without an explosion.
[11:26][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:]Why break it if it will ope
[11:26][DOIC5]Istrin@the5of43:You want us to blow it open? *he asked t'ghor again
[11:27][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Brandt] "Let's see if we can get it!" *He looked at Li.
[11:27][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Let's wait for the engineers.

[11:27][DOIC5]Istrin@the5of43:Please.. I don't want to fall upward
[11:28][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:-nope Valk isnt gonna look up at that
[11:30][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Brandt] "Seems like the handle was knocked off a while ago, might prove an issue.
[11:30][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*T'Ghor looks up.* "Wow... that -is- fucky.
[11:30][DOIC5]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:Looks like the material has degraded significantly...likely from being exposed to the atmosphere
[11:31][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Brandt] "How are we going to get it open?" *He looked at Li.
[11:31][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:All right...can you cut it open
[11:32][DOIC5]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:We can try. *Li nods and starts trying to cut through the hatch.
[11:32][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:-moves to a jagged opening near wqhere the station was ripped apart
[11:33][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:-shines herlight within to seeif they can gain entry
[11:33][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*watches over the engineers
[11:33][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*Valkriss shined her light down a short half of a hallway, beyond which was a corroded door.
[11:34][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:I have a possibel entrace..half acorrdor and a sealed doo
[11:34][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:-swings down into the half a hallway to check the door
[11:35][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*The door was solid and stuck closed.
[11:35][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*T'Ghor meanwhile played with his tricorder, trying to figure out the age of the station.
[11:35][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:-scans the other side to check to if thereis pressure beind the door
[11:35][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*Brandt and Li managed to slice through the metal and clear a little doorway for them.
[11:36][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:-begins to cut into the door as well
[11:37][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*Valkriss' door was easily cut into as well, opening up to another hallway.
[11:37][DOIC5]Istrin@the5of43:*Istrin hopped down and waited behind Valkriss
[11:37][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*T'Ghor played around wtih his tricorder some more.* "C'mmander, permission to collect some of the metal you cut off?
[11:38][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"I think I can age it more accurately in the lab.

[11:42][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*aquila looked around
[11:42][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*He does the most obvious thing and looks around for any writings or other symbols on the walls while Aquila and Ettore clear.

[12:15][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"The question becomes which side.
[12:15][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:Indee
[12:15][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Brandt] "I can barely understand any of this... but if I was a betting man I'd say this was one of the station's power centers. The crystal could be one of those... what are they called?

[12:17][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:Ish get as much footage as you can of this roo
[12:17][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"Perhaps the memory backups of whatever was last in the hardware?
[12:17][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"I would like to see... living quarters, or something, if the station has them... or if it -still- has them.

[12:19][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Brandt] "There seems to be a field that's keeping it suspended... it may even be what's causing the gravitational irregularities here.
[12:19][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:Themore we retainmaybe can extrapolate from Eiren
[12:20][DOIC5]Valkriss@Isis:So if we unplug the crystal...we might plunge
[12:20][DOIC5]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"Likely.
[12:20][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Brandt] "It's a real possibility.
[12:20][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Not a fun idea.
