[Tor]

Alarms can be heard blaring from the complex as workers scurry from place to place. In the main building, Torin Savit can be seen giving orders to several people dressed in lab coats. Moments later there is an earthquake and everyone is thrown to the floor. Tor shouts “All personnel to emergency evac locations! Abandon the site!”

Transporters begin beaming personnel to other locations as several crafts lift off and get people clear.

From outside the Domain, anyone who monitors Nexal goings on detects a sharp rise in Tachyons, Gravitons and Chronotons coming from NQS.

As the last of his personnel beam out, Tor staggers to his desk amid the now constant tremors. “T3! Transfer all systems to the Alpha Site, lock down the Domain and then get out of here!” The small, grey droid beeps from his alcove and then is whisked away by a transport beam. Tor glances at the readings on his desk’s screen and mutters to himself, “Oh, this is not going to be good.” Explosions can be heard from outside the main building and the ground heaves, knocking Tor from his feet once more. “Shamus!” he shouts, “Where are…” but is interrupted as the world around him goes white.

All over Proper, there is a flash of light followed by the sound of a large explosion and a hot wind. Anyone looking for the source will see a mushroom cloud charged with purple and blue bolts rising from where NQS Headquarters used to be.

[TheonlyShamus]

In the area around NQS, multiple ships emerge from portals.  Swiftly they land in the area and troops begin to pour out by the hundreds all in Mandalorian armor. They begin to set up perimeters all knowing exactly there task at hand and what needs to be done.  Orders are being shouted by men with orange shoulder guards "Look for survivors, set up the area make sure no one gets in and out with out proper clearance. I want Tents there, there, and there. Remember men this ain't a drill we need to find them and make sure there both ok."  "Sir what were you thinking" One of the men state while looking into the distance.

OCC:  Exactly what tech power signatures can be senses.  Is there Phazon?  Jon Stone question, just didn't switch profiles

[Tor]

OOC: A little bit of everything, even Toon. Mostly Temporal, Quantum and Magical.

Amongst the Mandalorians, a 7 foot tall archway of mud thrusts itself from the ground. Nothing can be seen through the archway...

[sigmacaine]

Next to it, a smaller, less-imposing portal of MUD rises from the ground, and through it step Sigma and the robotic doberman known as Velguader. The portal leads back to the Progenitor stronghold, where a small contingent of Crab clan soldiers are waiting at the ready.

Sigma immediately addresses the nearest Mandalorian officer. "Have your troops move the injured through the portal. Triage is being set up through there." He stops to type out something on his phone, then moves towards the rubble. He, along with some of the Crab, join the Mandalorians to being searching through the rubble for the survivors.

[TheonlyShamus]

At first the troops stood in a defensive stance weary of the invasion about to take place.  As Sigma begins to bark out orders they know he is on the same side as them and they continue on about there mission.  One of the men...the only one with a green shoulder comes walking up.

"Sir! 'the soldier salutes' No survivors have been found as of yet. We were givin instructions that it's ill advised to bring anyone who was expossed to this mess out of the immediate area without a clean bill of health,  unless otherwise stated by our Director. The man named Tor was found in the middle of what is known as proper.  Our director is there currently with him and some one who is named Green Sir!" the soldier then stands there at attention waiting.

[Tor]

As the smoke begins to clear, the border of the Domain is clearly visible. There is an obvious force-field containing the Domain and looking in to the Domain is like looking in to a broken mirror. Flashes of a starship bridge, Tristram and Paragon city as well as other locations can be seen as the shards move through the environment. Readings fluctuate wildly as the Domain tries to fix itself and tear itself apart at the same time.

Two men dressed in business suits, are beamed in to the area. Looking about, the older of the two makes a beeline for Sigma. “Commander Sigma, I am Jonathan Talen, Chief Operating Officer of NQS and this is James Berit, our Chief Engineer. Thank you all for your concern. Most of our people made it clear. We are still counting noses at the Alpha Site, but it looks like everyone made it out. As far as we are aware, only Mister Savit and HK-47, our translation droid, were on campus when the main reactor went critical.”

Surveying the damage, Berit snaps closed his tricorder and shakes his head, looking sad. “It looks like the overload caused the journey halls to rupture. I have no idea how we are going to restore this to working order. We need to talk to Tor and find out what he wants us to do.”

[wcshoe]

Through the larger MUD portal, the small figure of Cutthroat appears, weapon held at the ready. He looks around for Ashleigh Conners...

[Dr. Ashleigh Connors]

A comm signal, on a NEWS bandwidth, makes its way to Cutthroat.  "Hello Cutthroat?  Can you hear me now?"

[TheonlyShamus]

As Cutthroat exits the portal the soldiers in his immediate all snap to attention, salute him, and all stay still.  The one with the green shoulder instantly turns towards him with the salute.

"Sir good to have you, Your orders sir!?" 

[Tor]

Both Talen and Berit look over at the appearance of Cutthroat on the scene. Sadness is immediately replaced by rage on Berit's face as he storms towards the otter. "YOU!" he yells, "This mess is all YOUR fault!". "Chief!" Talen tries to grab the engineer's arm to hold him back. "No, Talen!" Berit says as he pulls his arm away, "That little rat just had to go messing with time and that's what destabilized the core!". "We don't know that for sure." Talen replies putting a hand on Berit's chest and moving in between the Lightfoot and his colleague. "Yeah, well, it's just a bit funny that he starts playing with time and our core breaks down at the same time." Berit glares at Cutthroat over Talen's shoulder. "Chief, you need to calm down. Head back to the Alpha site and show Deal your readings. See what you two can come up with." Glaring at the otter once more, Chief mutters "Yes, sir." And moments later is whisked away in a transporter beam.

Talen turns to Cutthroat and smiles calmingly, "I'm sorry about that, Captain. Sometimes my chief engineer can be a bit irrational. I'm sure this mess has nothing to do with you or your very fine weapon." Talen pulls a small ziplock bag from his pocket that has a red label which reads 'Open in case of otter'. From the bag Talen produces two chocolate chip cookies and offers them to Cutthroat.

[wcshoe]

A comm signal, on a NEWS bandwidth, makes its way to Cutthroat.  "Hello Cutthroat?  Can you hear me now?"

Cutthroat accepts the Com unit, and holds it briefly against a flat blue crystal. One second later, the crystal speaks. "Clone complete." As the words emit from the com unit, they also emerge from the crystal.

As Cutthroat exits the portal the soldiers in his immediate all snap to attention, salute him, and all stay still.  The one with the green shoulder instantly turns towards him with the salute.

"Sir good to have you, Your orders sir!?" 

"Look for survivors and suspects. Detain them, give medical treatment if needed."

Both Talen and Berit look over at the appearance of Cutthroat on the scene. Sadness is immediately replaced by rage on Berit's face as he storms towards the otter. "YOU!" he yells, "This mess is all YOUR fault!". "Chief!" Talen tries to grab the engineer's arm to hold him back. "No, Talen!" Berit says as he pulls his arm away, "That little rat just had to go messing with time and that's what destabilized the core!". "We don't know that for sure." Talen replies putting a hand on Berit's chest and moving in between the Lightfoot and his colleague. "Yeah, well, it's just a bit funny that he starts playing with time and our core breaks down at the same time." Berit glares at Cutthroat over Talen's shoulder. "Chief, you need to calm down. Head back to the Alpha site and show Deal your readings. See what you two can come up with." Glaring at the otter once more, Chief mutters "Yes, sir." And moments later is whisked away in a transporter beam.

Talen turns to Cutthroat and smiles calmingly, "I'm sorry about that, Captain. Sometimes my chief engineer can be a bit irrational. I'm sure this mess has nothing to do with you or your very fine weapon." Talen pulls a small ziplock bag from his pocket that has a red label which reads 'Open in case of otter'. From the bag Talen produces two chocolate chip cookies and offers them to Cutthroat.

Cutthroat glares at the man, trying hard to ignore the cookies. "Did he just call me a rat? A rodent?"  He glances at the cookies, then back at Talen. "And what core was he speaking of? And what were you using it for? The Nexus prohibits time travel, you know. In this case, perhaps fatally so."

He reaches out for the cookies. "And just how long have you had this core? Did you apply for the proper permits and licenses?"

[Tor]

Cutthroat glares at the man, trying hard to ignore the cookies. "Did he just call me a rat? A rodent?"  He glances at the cookies, then back at Talen. "And what core was he speaking of? And what were you using it for? The Nexus prohibits time travel, you know. In this case, perhaps fatally so."

He reaches out for the cookies. "And just how long have you had this core? Did you apply for the proper permits and licenses?"

"Again, Captain, I apologize for my colleagues behavior. It was uncalled for." Talen hands over the cookies, "The core Mr. Berit was speaking of is what powered the journey halls. It allowed NQS to open a journey gate to any point in time or space. It has been in operation without incident for over ten cycles. Until a short time ago, that is. Then it started behaving erratically. We had shut down most of the systems linked to the core, but the journey halls could not be taken off line. When the core blew it must have pumped all the energy through the halls and, well... I'm really not sure what happened after that." Talen looks over his shoulder at the Domain and shakes his head. "That's a really big mess we've got to clean up."
