replied quickly. She was already coordinating reports
from Beta Fleet, and added a call to RAdmiral
Garroway.<BR><BR><< Endeavor, Endeavor, this is Meridian, do you
read?<BR><BR>>> Meridian, Endeavor. Go ahead.
<<<BR><BR><< Thank you Endeavor. Capt Finney would like to
speak with RAdmiral Garroway regarding possible boarding procedures
of the remaining Romulan vessel. Would the Admiral have instructions
or give such<BR>permissions? >><BR><BR>>> Negative, Meridian,
no boarding protocols for this mission have been established.
What has Captain Kurisawa said on the matter? <<<BR><BR>Alika
rerouted the comms to a three-way conference with Constitution and
Endeavor, and asked, << Has Constitution prepared any kind
of boarding protocols for the remaining Romulan ship?
>><BR><BR><< Endeavor, Meridian. This is Constitution. We have
sensor damage preventing us full disclosure on the status
of the Romulan ship. We have hull breaches under repair on decks C-D
and a hull fracture in the starboard nacelle. No vital systems
damage, but DC teams and additional help from our Security
personnel are reestablishing atmospheric containment on the saucer
and hull techs are already in EV repairing the nacelle shell. At this
time, we do not feel we can spare crew to mount any kind of personnel
assault force. Capt Kurisawa says 'let them fry or freeze over there,
as long as they aren't shooting at us.'

guess that's a 'no'," Alika said to Capt Finney, with a bit of
uncertainty.<BR><BR>Rog stood by as the conversations were going on. He
nodded and said, "Admiral, wouldn't it be a good idea to at
least try to capture this Rommie? We could learn so much about them,
things that we could use against them in the future."<BR><BR>>> This
is Garroway," came the reply. "Captain Finney, I concur with Captain
Kurisawa. They just hit a self-destruct in front of you,
and the report I read on your waystation showed a love of
booby-traps. /If/ we can get more information on them, we'll get it
some other way. <<<BR><BR>Rog had to admit that the admiral was
right about booby traps being a Rommie modus operandi. He replied, "Yes
sir, very well."<BR><BR>>> And Finney, be advised: my Science
Officer is picking up a lot of ghost signals from our vantage. He
thinks it may be radiation bounce from the nebula off other cloaked
ships. Just because it's visible, doesn't <BR>mean it's the last
one. I'm not sure what their endgame is, but we're not out of the
woods, yet. Send that to all remaining Beta ships.
<<<BR><BR>"Very good sir, will do." Looking at Redlin, he said,
"Alert all Beta Group ships Redlin. There may be more bad guys out
there."</FONT></BLOCKQUOTE>

aye, Capt. Immediately Sir." Alika scrambled and encrypted a separate
individual message and sent them out to over 121 separate, individual
points. Some points were ships, some were empty coordinates in space, but
to Romulan sensors they were indistinguishable from one another. There
could be 3 ships and 118 ghosts, or 121 ships en route to the Ghost
Nebula. </FONT><BR></BLOCKQUOTE></FONT></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE>~~</DIV>
