Subject: [Calypso] Catching Up and Arming Up...
MD 5: 0712 hrs
[Onboard USS Calypso-B, the Cave]
[Genim System, Orbiting Genim One]
Georgi was about to start a conversation with "Tusk" when the red
alert claxon sounded. *Saved by the bell!* Guenthar thought to himself.
"Duty calls, Counselor... perhaps another time??" Without even
waiting for an answer, Ensign Tachlan made his way to the Armory, where
his station was. Enroute, he received a beep over his comm badge.
"Yes?!?" Tusk replied irritably.
=^= Tachlan, Freda. Go the the Armory. We need to contain our "dead
friends" we brought over from Starbase 10... before your time...=^=
"Understood," Tusk briskly snapped, "Enroute... Computer, forward all
logs pertaining to the Starbase 10 incident to my station in the
armory..."
=^= Confirmed... all relevant information has been forwarded to
armory station...=^= the pleasant female voice of the computer
responded.
The doors to the Armory swished open as Guenthar ran threw them
directly over to his station. Guenthar released the security protocols
which opened the vault where the Calypso's heavier hand-held weapons
were kept. Immediately, Guenthar read the files at his station to
bring himself up to speed as to why the Calypso had zombies on board in
the first place.
(...called to Starbase 10, near Romulan Neutral Zone... floating
corpses...came to life and attacked personnel...) Tusk read fervently,
feeling the hairs/quills on his arms, legs, and neck stand on end as he
read further. (Romulan Warbird decloaked... left encrypted co-ordinates
to Genim System...lone planet in system possible homeworld of
tribbles...)
*Tribbles?!?* Guenthar thought, *aren't they extinct??* There was a
whole lot of weirdness tied into the last days before he arrived on
board after his trip through the Kaozyra star nursery with his friend,
Skip. He even questioned if the Chief Engineer's woes in the holodeck
would be somehow tied in as well. *Why would Romulans watch an
abandoned station under cloak and then leave an address to where they
were heading?* he thought. *If they even came here... this could all
be a trap, or a carefully constructed Tal Shiar plot,* he deduced,
having WAY too much experience with Romulans in the past.
Guenthar was interrupted by the rush of security personnel pouring
into the armory. He threw weapons to the yellow-shirts as quickly as
they could enter the door and rush to the "Zombie Zone". Freda was the
last one to come through the door. Given her Cheron(?) heritage, he
wasn't sure she'd need a weapon, but threw her one anyway. "Troops
enroute, ma'am," Guenthar reported. "Weapons set to heavy stun... I
figure if you went to all the trouble of bringing them on board, you
want them alive... what's the next move??" he asked the zebra-striped
beauty.
[Tag, Freda!]
Summary:
MD 5: 0715 hrs: Guenthar gets caught up with the situation and "arms
up" Security in the Armory as Freda lays out the battle plan.
