El Sal Mission: Rehab Rescue

[Savot]

"Commander, I've notified the guards and have informed them to escort the Fury guards to the transporter room," Ethan said as he finished sending the message. "I have also taken the liberty of beginning extensive scans on the Fury. I don't doubt the Commander's sincerity, but our traitor might have done something to the systems. Our sensors our powerful enough to pick on things that the Fury cannot."

Savot nodded, "Sensible, Mr. Hope, proceed."

Two or three minutes later Ethan spoke up again, "Commander, Transporter room 2 reports Judd's back aboard and the Fury's guards have been beamed up from the shuttle on the planet. Commander Gonto reports he and Lieutenant Roberts have almost got the engines repaired and will bring the shuttle back up once they have", Ethan's face twisted slightly in confusion as he received another report, "Commander... Major Runningwolf has been beamed aboard the Fury with Captain Philips, should I hail them?"

"No, Mr. Hope. The Major is accepting temporary reassignment as payment for intel he was given on this mission. He's free to leave with our blessing. Any anomalous readings from the Fury?", the vulcan asked.

"No sir. All her systems read clear of possible sabotage", the Ops chief replied.

Savot nodded with inward relief, he'd had his fill of espionage for the time being, "Very well, they are clear to depart for the nearest Starbase for debriefing."

He then tapped a control on an arm of the Captain's chair opening a channel to Engineering, =^= Savot to Sandage. My apologies for the brevity of your welcome home; however, if you are in sufficient health to work the internal sensors require repair. An explosion occurred within the medical storage bay and while the majority of the damage was confined via containment field there was a residual power surge that disabled internal sensors. Check for other possible damage. Above all, ensure that sickbay's power systems are stable. The Captain was injured by the aforementioned power surge and is currently in critical condition. We cannot risk an interruption in sickbay's systems."


(Tag Judd, Gonto/Roberts to bring the shuttle back, anyone else)

Travor decided that the shuttles engines, being at just over 50%, were going to be as good as they could get them without the proper tools. He said, "Hold on Lt. this is going to get a little bumpy," as he turned on the engines and started to put the shuttle in a climb. It took a little longer than he had hoped to get the shuttle through the atmosphere. They had been shaken up a little, both of them had gotten a few cuts and numerous bruises, but where otherwise none the worse for wear.

After they got clearence to land in the shuttle bay and landed, they both made their way to sickbay.

[juddsandage]

Judd, having just beamed back aboard the El Sal, stepped off the transporter pad, ignoring thetransporter chief's look of startled concern at Judd's appearance and condition. He knew he'd have to visit sickbay...then his commbadge chirpped. =^= Savot to Sandage.

Judd grumbled, and smacked his commbadge. =/\=Acknowledged, Commander. I'm already headin' for Engineerin'. Sandage out!=/\=

Two minutes later, a seething Judd Sandage, his uniform dirty and torn and looking as if a Klingon had used him for a bat'leth training target, strode into Engineering and began barking orders. "Teams Alpha, Bravo, and Charlie, get yer tools and disperse around the ship. We gotta get the internal sensors back on line, and I mean now! Delta team, get t' work re-routin' auxillary power t' sickbay! Let's go people, I want it done yesterday!" His stride never broke until he reached a storage case, where he grabbed a fresh tool kit. He set to work alongside his people, muttering to himself. "Can't turn m'back fer two damn minutes, and some yayhoo's tryin' t' blow up m' ship..."

A few minutes later, Judd looked up, and noticed that no one else was working next to him. He shrugged, and went on working and muttering.

"Jorden got into shuttlecraft,to take a long trip to USS EL SALVADOR-B she new that journey would be long so she brought Book along read. It was one of sherlock homes mystries.

Jorden always did love a good mystrie on a long journey, I wonder how john is doing? "I heard he has been transfer to the USS EL SALVADOR-B. "I hope we end up working together
we were a good team during are time at the academy.

Jorden desided to get some rest after reading some of sherlock homes she fallen asleep with her the book in hand, jorden always did look as if she was angel as she slept.

"Jorden dream of the time during the academy days an the time she had with her sister gabbriel she an her sister aways getting into some type of trouble. "You could always tell when jorden was up to no good, "she had look that she ate the canary of course she would never amit that she did.


"Jorden awoken she stretch an yawn an rub her eyes relizing now that were near USS EL SALVADOR-B. "Which was enough time to get herself all clean up an ready to dock the shuttle on USS EL SALVADOR-B.

"Jorden fianally ready she watch as the helms went to dock the shuttle on
USS EL SALVADOR B. as shuttle landed jorden grab her gear an exit the shuttle.

"An head off too find her quarters as she was walking down the corridors she came to a stop in front of her quaters. she enter into her quarters <computer light 45% > the computer complied.

'As walk further into her quarters she came to a stop. "An drop her gear onto the bed. "she begain to unpack an get settle into her quarters.

"After she finish unpack, she exit her quarters an walk a little ways to the turbolift she enter the turbolift.<Computer Bridge>

"As turbolift desended an came to a stop she exit the turbolift an report in headed towards the tactical station as order.

During the return to the El Sal, John had sufferd a nasty knock to the head, blood was trickling down his forehead. John and Gonto got up out of thir seats, and made the journey towards sickbay, when they arrived they where greeted by the EMH, John and The comander got thir wounds treated, and then went off up to the bridge.

When John arrived he noticed a new, yet familiar face stood at the Tac/Sec console,they where so familiar that it was bugging John as to who it was, then he realised, "Jorden?" he said smiling, "When did you get transferred here?" he asked

(TAG Jorden & all other bridge personel)

[jorden23]

Jorden was doing rotine senser scan at the Tac/Sec console "Jorden?" he said smiling,


Jorden turn her head to a familer vocie an found her friend smiling at her. "When did you get transferred here?" he asked

"Jorden spoke not to long ago i think might have been a yesturday or something like that. jorden smiled at her friend its good to see you john.

"I am assuming you must be the chief which I am to report to?

'It seems you done rather well for yourself. 'we have alot of catch up to do. "Meet me in the Lounge after your shieft an we will catch up with each other.


( Tag John Roberts)

[Deleted]

"Yeah, ok" John repliled, "But I must inform savot of Wolf position first, speak later" he added.

John then walked over to Savot, "Just to infor you that Wolf has choosen to stay and continue with some black ops work for the time being". John stood waiing for Savot's reply

(Tag savot)

[jorden23]

"Jorden smiled an watch her friend walk over to the commander,Jorden went back working on rotine senser scan at the Tac/Sec console. Even through Jorden hard work her mind was miles away back on uss hepta with her friend john.

Jorden was pleased that she was going to be working with her friend john again after jorden shift was over jorden was relieved by ryan o' neal jorden headed to tenforward.

"Awaiting her friend which she dying to catch up with let him know what she been up too an finding out what her friend has been up to.

[Savot]

John then walked over to Savot, "Just to inform you that Wolf has chosen to stay and continue with some black ops work for the time being", John stood waiting for Savot's reply.

Savot, green blood now dry on his forehead and arm, turned to hear Roberts' report, "Thank you Lieutenant. The Major informed me of his intentions before leaving the ship." As the Fury warped out of the system towards a debriefing at the nearest Starbase, Savot walked toward the turbolift at the rear of the bridge, "I'll be in sickbay, Commander Zimmerman you have the bridge." He entered the lift without waiting for a response and the whoosh of the closing doors took him downward.

**********************************************

By the time Savot got down to sickbay, it was a much calmer scene than the past hour had been. With internal sensors out teams had rushed to search the ship deck by deck to locate anyone wounded in the power surge from the saboteur's bomb explosion. Beyond bruises and minor cuts suffered from the sudden turbulance of the explosion, everyone among the crew was fine save one...

When he saw Captain Irae lying on a biobed unattended while the EMH treated some of the other minor wounds of incoming crew he inwardly feared the worst. The EMH turned to see the vulcan walking toward him and spoke as though reading the First Officer's mind, "The Captain has stabilized and is no longer in any fatal danger. Her neural readings; however, are less comforting."

The holographic doctor walked to Deis' bed as Savot came up on the other side and they both looked at the biobed's overhead readout screen as the Doctor pointed to erratic waves, "Her body is no longer in any physical danger. Truth be told there wasn't much physical damage at all. Unfortunately the neural damage she suffered when the energy flash struck her cerebral cortex could well be equally damning. Her brainwaves were 'scrambled', if you will, and there's no artificial way to try and restore them to normalcy without risking further degradation. The body's natural recuperative ability can potentially restore the pathways' normal state, but there's no way we'll no until she comes to on her own."

Savot faced the Doctor and raised an eyebrow in inquiry, "Could a mind meld aid the restorative process?"

The Doctor's countenance showed he'd considered that possibility as well, only sensible when you know there's a Vulcan aboard the ship, but his lips frowned slightly and he shook his head, "At this stage it might do more harm than good I'm afraid. From my understanding a mind meld's success is dependent upon the probed mind being receptive to and welcoming the mind of the melder. If her neural patterns are too far out of sync she might not remember you and the result would be akin to that of putting two same-polarity magnets together. Likewise attempting a forced meld is not only unethical but could very well cause more harm. I'm sorry Commander, but at this point all anyone can do is wait and hope for the best. She could wake up now or 20 years from now, retaining all or none of her memories, or she might never wake up at all."

[zimmerman]

"Thank you Lieutenant. The Major informed me of his intentions before leaving the ship," said Savot. He didn't sound tired but his choice of words seemed different than what Kevin might have expected... and if Kevin hadn't picked up on his friend's slight verbal shift, the physical wounds were very appearant. "I'll be in sickbay, Commander Zimmerman you have the bridge." He entered the lift without waiting for a response.

Kevin stood up and obediently took the center seat. "Lt. Spiller, run a final scan for our post-assignment report. Ops, make sure everyone's accounted for." He tapped his commbadge. "Bridge to Sandage. Do you have an estimate for how long repairs will take?"

(Sandage)

"Very well. If you require any additional assistance I can find you other personnel. Zimmerman out." Kevin terminated the communication and, with little else to do, began writing his report on Lt. Spiller's performance. He hoped Savot's reference to the Captain's condition was exaggerated, but that was atypical of the Vulcan...

[Ethan Hope]

Ethan quietly worked at his station. He wanted to know what type of mission Major Wolf was actually performing on the Fury, but he knew that there were things that he didn't need to know. The crew was buzzing with activity, but everyone seemed a bit preoccupied. Commander Savot was down in sickbay looking after Captain Irae.

"Commander, all personal is accounted for except Major Wolf," Ethan reported quietly.

Commander Zimmerman acknowledged Ethan's report and went back to waiting. Something that Ethan did as well.

[juddsandage]

Judd, still in his torn uniform, glanced down in annoyance when his commbadge demanded his attention. Damn impatient Vulcan, he thought as he smacked the device. He was mildly surprised when the voice he heard was not, in fact, Savot, but Zimmerman.

=/\=Bridge to Sandage. Do you have an estimate for how long repairs will take?=/\=

Judd rolled his eyes. When would the people on the Bridge learn that these repairs take as long as they take? =/\=Sickbay has primary power just comin' back on. Internal sensors will probably take a little longer; there are an awful lot of burnt-out relays to change out. Call it two to three more hours before the internal sensor net is back to full coverage.=/\=

=/\=Very well. If you require any additional assistance I can find you other personnel. Zimmerman out.=/\=

Judd rolled his eyes again as he tapped in a diagnostic command on a portion of the sensor net. "'Additional assistence' he says. As if I would let a boat-load of untrained yayhoos near my engineering gear!"

John was just checking over a few things before going meeting up with Jorden, alls fine he thought, he then left thebridge and went down to tenforward.

There he met Jorden, They began to chat about the good old days at `the academy, then John asked what she did over the Mining coloneys her parents left her when they died.

(TAG Jorden)

[jorden23]

Jorden smiled seeing that her friend was walking over join her at the table talk about the old days at the academy.


well the Mining coloneys me an my sister gave over to the federation leting them deal with the details.

what about you john what have you been up too?

[Deleted]

"well yo know, the normal everyday stuff, helping save the universe" John said laughing, "Hows everyone else doing from the academy, do you hear much about them?" he asked.

[jorden23]

Jorden spoke no i have not heard from anyone else not even David Ramsey , Chris Pemberton or Kosh Darmek an kosh i don't know what happend to him.

"What about you any luck are old buddys from the academy ?

'jorden sip her earl grey tea i would what they all been up to?

"Jorden spoke well i know one thing i going to find out an see we can get in touch with any of them. an see what they been up too. hey john i got get going its my shieft.

"when ever my shieft is over an yours do want to go camping an fishing?

"Jorden headed out of tenforward an down the corridors to the turbolift <Computer Bridge>
the turbolift desended an came to a stop she exit the turbolift.

"taking the tactical station she relieve the ensign of his dutys she begain to run rotine scans all seems to be in the normal.

"After she was finish with her dutys for the day she headed to tenforward to look out window of the ship on tenforward.

"Jorden always did love the stars she sip her earl grey tea thought of the old days with her sister."Jorden was star gazing ,"her sister came up to her ask what you looking at? "jorden smiled then spoke the stars." her sister spoke oh you mean those dimonds in the night sky there pretty. "Jorden laugh as she took her sister hand an headed back into the house.

"jorden then headed out of tenforward she walk down the corridors her quaters which she enter <computer lights 45%> 'jorden walk towards the bed took of her shoes an grab a towl for nice hot shower. "she grab up along with that her blue flannel pjs she finish her shower an dawn on he pjs an headed of to bed. <computer lights off>

'she fell into a deep sleep dream of her sister an her star gazing in her sleep she were smile on her face.

[Savot]

As Savot looked once again at the screen display of Captain Irae's vital signs, the EMH walked over to a nearby cart and picked up a dermal regenerator, "Speaking of injuries Commander."

The vulcan followed the Doctor's glance down to the cuts on his right arm, and just above his brow. At this point the wounds had clotted and the blood had dried, but it was still a sight. Nodding his permission for the EMH to proceed he stood still as the Doctor first scanned the injuries just to be on the safe side, then set his medical tricorder down and ran the dermal regenerator slowly over the trio of small gashes he'd suffered from shards of cracked console material when he was flung against the bulkhead by the bomb explosion earlier.

Moments later both the arm and brow wounds were healed to perfection. "You're injuries are fully repaired Commander. However...", the EMH reported panning his eyes along the tattered uniform sleeve and the green blood stains peppering the upper torso of Savot's uniform.

Savot nodded, understanding the Doctor's unspoken comment, "You're quite right Doctor, thank you. Inform me immediately upon any change in the Captain's status." He received the Doctor's acknowledgement as he departed the sickbay heading for his quarters to clean himself up and change. As soon as the sickbay doors whooshed closed he tapped his commbadge, =^= Savot to Sandage. The Captain's condition has stabilized; Sickbay systems can resume their normal priority ranking within the repair schedule. I commend your efficiency, Commander. If you suffered injury aboard the Fury you may proceed to sickbay or end your duty shift at your discretion. Savot out.=^=

*******************************************

A few minutes later the vulcan entered his quarters. He sprinkled some food into his goldfish Alfred's tank almost as an afterthought before disrobing from his ripped and stained uniform discarding it into the ship's recyclers. Savot let the sonic shower remove the caked-on blood from his skin and just refresh his overall appearance of readiness, taking no more than 10 minutes total from entering his room to zipping closed the shirt on his fresh uniform and snapping his rank pips into place at the collar.

For the moment, everything that could be done, had been. The Captain was as stable as she was going to get, the ship was out of any immediate outside danger, and their mission with regard to Captain Philips was complete. Savot brushed his hair into its usual well-kept positioning before leaving his quarters to make his way back to the bridge. His place was there until the Captain awoke, and he wanted to perform a full shakedown test of all of El Salvador's main systems just to be sure no further complications remained from the earlier explosion.
