We just heard news we didn't want to hear.  First Chief told us that the subphonic drives are shot to pieces and with no spare parts, we stuck. Then this afternoon, Captain told us that protocol does not allow a rescue ship to put their own crew in danger. And our life support is failing with about 3 or 4 days before it packs up completely.

 

On the plus side, I rezzed my collection of sub phonic outlet ejectors before we went through the wormhole. So at least I'll die happy with a polishing cloth in my hand.

I always find it odd that, over life support, the last ounce of power would go to the ships logs. Chief explained that its important for the crew that find us to know what happened, in case they also step into danger. Quite a morbid view, but Chief said that we still have enough power in the backup cells to last us a few more days. Enough time for us to fix the subphonic drive. Better get to work then.

Stardate: 203253

We're still drifting. No engines, no weapons, no shields, no navigation. We've managed to get power to some of the minor systems, and life support is working - just.  It looks like we've lost bits off the ship in the shakedown. The Chief on this ship said that a few escape pods were knocked loose, and a few had the assignment of counting what bits we have left. I must say, for the first time, I am pretty scared.

We're... drifting somewhere.. The ships in a bad state and it looks like we went into the wormhole. All the major components are offline and engineering have the priority in fixing the navigation systems so that we can work out where we are. But, looking out the windows, I can't see any stars. Not one.

I am logging this in case this ship gets ripped apart and they send a space buoy out containing our data streams.  It looks like we've been caught up..

We've just received a mission. I started packing up my stuff to transfer back, but we've left already! Something urgent has come up that the captain won't divulge. I am still trying to get used to the new crew and Chief.

Stardate: 203249

OH MY WORD!

 

My quarters are fantastic! They are bigger than mine. Good grief, if I knew I'd have this space I would have bought my collection of sub phonic outlet ejectors. They're currently in teleport stasis because Chief saw how much room they would take but they'd already been passed by GE0. But if I had been given an assignment on the Freedom, I could have rezzed them. I'll see if I can get them across tomorrow. I'm going exploring before my shift starts.

Stardate: 203248

Well just about to go down to teleport over. I'm pretty excited. Can't see what the rooms are like and people are saying that there's so much room over there our entire crew could fit!

 

Just need to transfer my log over there. Can't wait!

Wow. I just got notification from Chief that I'll be going over to the Freedom for a few days in some crew exchange program. Am dead excited, we teleport over tomorrow!  Chief said that they might benefit from my plasma understanding, but to remember that I am just an ensign and whatever they say goes. I think his final words were something like "Don't screw it up". Ah the confidence!

Stardate: 203246

Had some long overdue down time today. Wasted it breaking a sweat in the sports lounge and saw Randall in there so beat him at a few games of Quarimore. He can't seem to take losing well, so he'll be one to avoid in the mess hall, I can eat spaghetti faster than most on this ship.

Stardate: 203245

Well the medical bay move seemed to go ok. Randall's complained to chief that his room is smaller. We measured it and it's actually bigger. He won't have it, so Chief said he'd have to live with it or check himself in to his old room - aka Medical.

Stardate: 203244

 Received a "construction" task today. Chief wanted a few engineers on hand while they modify the medical bays.  We had a few crew move into alternate cabins and their cabins have been "grafted" in as part of the medical section now. Chief wanted to make sure that no important plasma tubes were crushed by the "cowboys" in the structure team - whatever a cowboy is! And now the medical team are using Ozone to kill off Bacteria in the old cabins to make them sanitary. How clever.

Stardate: 203243

It doesn't matter how many times I look at the freedom through the portal.. it's a huge ship. But we're quicker!  Captain's extended holodeck time, so I might go find a quite bar to sit in.

Stardate: 203242

Well I was hoping for a relaxing day today, but looks like Chief had other plans. No time to stop.

Stardate: 203241

Looks like I've got a bit of tidying up to do. System resources are all over the place, because of my.. now what did Chief call it?.. oh yes, my escapade.. so looks like I'm data crunching all afternoon.. joy..

Stardate: 203240

Well I got a ticking off. Something about protocol. Even though I helped out, protocol on a starship is more important. Off the record I got a pat on the back. But off the record doesn't count when you're trying to work toward promotion does it?

Stardate: 203239

Chief wants to see me and I've avoided him so far.  Apparently an "Ensign" shouldn't have that much access to the holodeck processing cells.

Stardate: 203238

We closed the door on the Tolans - quite literally!  Managed to get them all into taking a wrong turn in through the holodeck door and into what they thought was our ship. They had controls working and everything, but couldn't find the exit. The others are free now and Captains number 1 is on the bridge bringing us back to the Tolan planet. We're on red alert now and my programs been shut down with the holodeck doors locked shut. They'll be in for a big surprise when we drop them off!

Stardate: 203237

Ha ha!! It's already working! Ok, to bring you up to speed.. The computer finished processing last night, and basically I've copied the look of the ship into the holodeck..and gradually one by one the Tolans have gotten lost and ended up in the holodeck version of the ship!! I've made it "no way out" so they are trapped!! Just a few more Tolans to go and I'll be able to get our guys free!

Stardate 203236

Its a long process, the computer systems is chugging away at this monumental task. I've had to allocate loads of the systems resources to this job. I hope the Tolans don't notice. I also hope this works. If it does, I might be forgiven for diverting so much to the holodeck. If it doesn't... I'm dead meat.

Stardate: 203235

It's worked, I have transferred a copy of my quarters to the holodeck. Now to put my plan in action. I've safeguarded the system by erecting an image of outer space with an imaginary force-field just inside the door of the holodeck. If anybody opens the door to look inside, it will look like they've opened the door to outer space! Now to get the computer working overtime to complete my plan. First thing first, rez a nutritional unit - I'm famished.. or is that ravenous?
 

Stardate: 203234

I am grinning today.. just had a wicked idea that might actually work. I've just got to get to a holodeck without being seen, which might be hard because no plasma tubes go through them for safety reasons. I'll have to transfer my quarters into the holomem.. but that's not difficult.. the ships computer knows exactly what it looks like.
