Waiting for reports during a crisis was the worst.  It seemed like days since he had last heard from engineering. Feeling he could have read the Klingon war histories by now, he looked at the time stamp, 1.5 minutes was the last time he spoke with soemone in engineering..  "Bridge to Engineering, Chief Laurent, are there any failsafes we can safely trigger to shut the engines down and get us to impusle?"

He had several ideas, but depth of his engineering skills consisted of tidbit like dilithium crystals did something with the engines, he knew his idea would probably blow the ship up. As with most departments, he was taught, let the experts do their jobs.

Just as she was stepping into the warp core room, taking in and assessing the situation, she got the message from bridge.

Not yet having fully taken in what had been done, she could already see Blatt had taken control of the warp core room and a small smile formed ever so briefly.

Tapping her ComBadge to reply "we can take manual control of the warp cores controlling hardware to shut it off, switching to auxiliary power. We would need to avoid any significant activity and use of phasers as well since phasers are powered by the warp core."

Taking another, brief, glance around it seemed most the staff were trying to push the sluggish consoles and terminals to do what they wanted it to do. "We should also shut down all none essentially systems and isolate everything essential, this will also likely cause alarms and alerts as cross talk is turned off and the most systems may get a little sluggish"

Her words said she was advising, suggesting, and saying what could be done but her tones and syntax said this is what was going to be done.

As it was the priority issue, as if already expecting bridge to agree with its management, Jessica moved towards the warp core itself. As she moved past Blatt, "excellent work" would be directed his way. Her mind was starting to clear, almost as if soothed and calmed by the whirling sounds and whooshing hums of the machines around her. The tap-taps and bleeps of consoles quickly washing out the flooding sounds of frustrated and panicked flurry of the staff. Her mind almost synchronizing with the technology around her.

Vanna frowns as she tries to adjust settings back to what they should be "Cmdr Geary, I'm experiencing difficulty with long-range sensors and comms are going haywire.  According to these readings we are in a complete void, although that doesn't make much sense."  She glances at Istala for confirmation that her station is also getting these readings.

In reply to Vanna Marie Keyes (msg # 4):

Istala didn't immediately answer as she frowned at her own panel then looked out the view-screen.  "We're drifting off course.  The helm says we're fine, but I can tell..."
