Alice nodded and gave Jon a quick hug.
"Yeah, I wanted to make sure i had the right gear...to over any contingency..." She shook her head. "Got some advice from Decia and Linda..."
"Linda helped me deal with getting the gear and weapons from Palamo..." she gestured to her pack and rifle.
"So I am all set up....ad ready to go" She smiled to Vic and Kessi. "Hey you two..joining us below?"

Jon nods and returns the hug.
"I believe Vic is remaining here...although Kessi...will you be joining us?"

Vic smiled at Alice. "Jon is right. I need to stay here and help with some of the new tech we brought on board. I'm already familiar with most of it. I'm sure Aquarius would do that job if she were here but... for now I'm essentially her stand-in."

"Unless you can make it fly the anchors will have to do. Retractibility and tensile strength are important."
Seb thought for for a moment. "Make sure we can take them off in an emergency. No permanent mounts."

Kessie offered a smile to Alice as she joined them. She then looked to Jon and nodded. "I am planning to go down there with you if they will allow it. I'm not sure I would be so helpful on the ship when they activate that thing.. Plus I want to help you and your brother as best I can Jon."
She then turned to Vic with a more serious expression. "I do need to ask you something though before we leave." she stepped over to Vic and spoke quietly. "Tell me again that I can really trust you? The first time was not convincing.." She stared at Vic intently now as she waited for his response, focused to see if she could get a sense from him.

Jon smiles warmly at her and nods.
"I appreciate your help Counselor...now and before."
As she steps towards Vic he turns to Alice, laying his forehead against hers.
"Are you ready for this?"

The first time was not convincing.." She stared at Vic intently now as she waited for his response, focused to see if she could get a sense from him. Victor turned to Kessi and spoke. "I know. I was under orders to keep my Starfleet Intelligence affiliation secret. It was believed that... after the Project Salvation incident, the presence of a Starfleet Intelligence operative might have... a detrimental effect on morale. In other words, this crew wants nothing to do with anything even remotely related to any Intelligence project. And I understand that. Now that my cover is blown, so to speak, I can assure you... I am here to help." She would sense no deception from him this time.

A rather relieved expression fell across her features and she nodded thankfully to Vic. "Alright, thank you. I suppose I owe you an apology for my erratic behavior in sickbay previously.. I do hope your forgive me. It was a rather tense and confusing situation." She looked around them a moment before nodding back at him. "Not the best time I suppose but I'm glad to have a moment to address it. Now let's get to business hmm?" She looked to Jon and Alice, now wondering how the hell she was going to truly be of any help to them.

Xylvarenn finishes running some insane tests aswell as her long fiddling and writing session with her wrist thingy. eventually after manny ifs, what ifs and deep ponders and fixings she turns to Decia and shows the idea to her. "What do you think? Have I missed something obvious?" Targeted Temporal subspace dispersion beam. (Ship MDD modification, Targeted beam) Man portable temporal subspace scrambler field. (Ground equipment, Reserve. Area burst.)- Effect.
- Scrambles the targeted subspace area trough a time distortion of +/-5 minutes.
- Any particle entering subspace will come out at targeted destination, but not at expected time, each particle is scrambled separately.
- Disables (Safe) transporter locks.
- Purpose.
- Preventing the targeted ESPER from teleportation.
- Preventing emergency extraction transportation of the target.
- Disabling the targets subspace communications.
- Side effects.
- Disabling own subspace that passes nearby the scrambled field.
- Preventing own transporter target locks within 20 meter radius of the beam center, alternatively 300 meters radius from the area scrambler.
- Slight chronoton radiation, MDD beam: Chronoton radiation if within 15m of the target. Target will be chronton polarized.
- Chronoton radiation, Area burst: Chronoton radiation if inside the effected area, Chronoton radiation is generally not dangerous to humanoids. Recommended to not be within the area burst for more then one hour.
- Chronotons has a tendency to make transporter patterns behave strangely. Be sure to take extra preconditions and full locks of targets (No quick lock on). Do not transport anyone with to high chronoton signature.
- Rendering targets (Intended and accidental) vulnerable to exploitation of states inflicted on them.
- If raining, Causes a wider spread of side effects
- If the target area has a high level of gamma radiation, Radiation poisoning will occur quicker as a result of the radioactive atoms will have their half life reduced even further.
- An ESPer with a precognitive ability might have that ability being less reliable, or even reacting to outcomes that was of a different outcome of a timeline.
- Strong Telepathic beings may have a similar effect as specified in IX. But with emotions that where of alternative event horizon outcome.
- Measurement of time in conventional ways might be effected slightly within the targeted area ( About 2 seconds of error within an hours time )
- Risks.
- Failure to remember to use alternate communication systems and relying on subspace causing vital communications to be lost. [Major (In a situation of stress and combat, people tend to do what they are used to, not what they are told to)]
- Stressed use of transporter in emergency situation for evacuation within effected area causing molecular temporal dispersion of transported target. [Major (Stress factor and knowledge of people being lethally wounded can cause things to slip memory for a split second. Can be reduced by installing additional safety protocols.)]
- Own assets chronoton polarized, Needs to be treated on location and not transported back to ship. [Mid (Possible, but not that dangerous in of itself if handled properly)]
- The ESPer tries to teleport regardless of any warnings given by safety equipment, thinking this can be compensated for, Resulting in death by molecylar temporal dispersion [Minor ( I do not think he is that stupid )]
- Failure to operate the tech. leading to various outcomes of various severity [Mid ( Largest risk is with the ground based area burst, as in case of casualties of trained operator, an untrained operator might panic and try to use it. On the ship that event should be less likely, and there are more safeties in place)]
- Third part involvement that has not been informed of the operational orders nor the security regulations of this operation. [Mid (Should be covered at a higher level of operational risk assessment as it is not unique to this)]
- Allies of the ESper tries to transport our assets that has been exposed to chronoton radiation for to long, Causing them to die by temporal dispersion. [Mid ( We should hopefully not have our people effected by this to that degree. There should be appropriate transporter securities to prevent transporter kidnappings in accordance with SOP for this kind of operations)]
- Technical error, Various sorts. [Mid (This is all theoretical prototypes, While I have full faith in the voodoo crew and the science behind this, the risk shall not be ignored)]
- Temporal displacement [Low (unlikely that is happens Even if it happens, as long as the people knows to not do anything stupid and wait for extraction, it should cause no issues, the major risk is if it happens to someone in combat that does not realize what has happen nor can distinguish friend, foe and neutral and continues fighting)]
- Overloading the MDD [Minor (While it is possible, I believe we have enough security systems in place to detect it, and even if it happens our engineers should be able to handle it without to major issues)]
- Allies of the ESPer tries to emergency evacuate it with a transporter. Causing molecular temporal dispersion of the ESPer [Minor (The do not seem that incompetent)]
- ESPer escapes the target lock and can escape. [Low (With the new sensor we got, this nearly requires exterior attacks on the sentinel herself, or that the new sensor stops working and we need to rely on the backup, where our reliability drops significantly)]
- ESPer has allies in space that engages the Sentinel, Preventing or disrupting the lock and the engagement on the ground takes over an hour, alternatively the ground device is not activated, Resulting in the ESPer can teleport and transport (Unless polarized). [Low (With the redundancy of the ground burst there is a backup plan, the probability of a space attack on the sentinel has to be taken a stance to at a higher level operational risk assessment)]
- Use of Anti-chronoton weapons, Causing chronton/anti-chronoton reactions. [Low (Unlikely, if such happens it should be sufficient if the ground commander has a contingency plan for taking said weapons out of actions. Such a weapon is as great danger to us to them, so would only be used in extreme desperation)]
- The ESPer has access to a very advanced temporal transporter, allowing it to be transported out of the field without issues [Very Low ( Temporal transporters is highly prototype in this day and age, the kind that is capable of doing this is not invented yet to my knowledge. However due to the resourcefulness this entity has showed, I decided to mention it)]
- Presence of beings that lives outside of linear time on the targeted area that is injured or killed by chronoton radiation. [Very low (So few of these exists, They are however very sensitive to chronotons.)
- Cascade chronoton chain reaction in contact with a large nuclear explosion causing subspace rifts and temporal displacements [Very low (Has to be written in accordance with the 1% rule due to the severity of it, even if the possibility is highly unlikely that anyone use nuclear weapons or similar devices that causes massive uncontrolled atomic chain reactions by spiting of radioactive atoms. If this happens, The victims are likely dead by the shock wave, heat, blast or radiation poisoning then the subsequent temporal subspace rift.)
- Other notes.
- The ground portable area burst is a reserve device only to be used if the target is suspected of trying to escape before the sentinel can be in position to use the beam, or if the beam fails.
- I have not been able to gain a coherent result on how this would effect a telepath in details, my recommendation is they stay away from engaging in melee combat while the beam is active.
- With the new sensors we gotten, it should be possible to have 99% secure lock (Up from 72%) on the ESPer from that a lock is established, according to tests, the tests where done on a high eighties accurate calculation however. When the ESPer are polarized, the targeting accuracy should be 100% in all but exceptional external circumstances.
- The ground device must be returned to the sentinel after use and be destroyed or dismantled and secured.
- Complexity.
- Medium complexity of the science behind it, I believe it is the same complexity to actually engineer it, I however am not, nor have ever been an engineer. A lot of this has been tested and used separately and for separate purposes, nothing of this has never been tested in some way before, Just probably never like this, or together.

Scrappy smirked at Seb's comment as she worked on her PADD and design for the anchor tethers and anchor clamps. "Gotcha....ya wanna dign in deep and retract when not needed....check.."
She looked back over and then circled the armor and gave an annoyed sigh. "Definitely doable...."
She sneered. "Yeah yeah yeah...they will be ejectable so you dont get tossed around by the big bad...dont worry Seb, you and the Princess will be fine with any of my toys..."
She then couldnt resist, "Flyin' eh?" she looked back over the armor..."Nah...we don't have the time....but i like that the Adagio has done with those drop control boosters....Hmm..."
She sets her jaw some..."Ya know...these things are kinda boss..."

Decia turns and accepts her PADD and begins to read the scrolling text. She seems to be metiulously reading it over and despite not having a science background seems to be comprehending quite a bit of the subject and how it just may relate to her side of the coming battle.
Her emerald green eyes go wide as she comes to the 'Risks' section as she gives a soft silent breath of a whisper...
"O filii carissimi..." She blinks. "This is quite a list of in the field hazzards..."
She continues to read on, nodding to an entry here and there...
"So, aside from the litany of battlefield hazzards it is in a sense a teleport restriction field which also functions as a transporter inhibitor and jams subspace communications...." She nods to this "That is if I am reading it correctly.."
"Which to a degree will also effect any of our forces that may be within the burst radius of the target during its use?" She blinked again. "Sauce for the goose....i suppose..."
Her eyes returned to the hazzards listed.
"My only concern is battle damage to the gear you have here...there is a very good chance this is going to be a very violent encounter given what we saw of his earlier capabilities on Travadi Prime...when he was weaker..." She looks to Therese "Just how much punishment do you think this device can take before its leakage and ill effects ...well effect the grounds forces?"
"And how much might this affect our own Telepaths like say Kessi?"
'Overall I love the purpose of the device and think it will be a great asset....just we need to avoid the wall of risks involved. How much can it take before it breaks do you think?

Alice pressed her forehead to him gently and smiled softly for him. Though her tone gentle it held a determined resolve.
"Yes, I am. We are going to face this Angelboy, no matter what we will see this through...."
"...together."

"I'm sorry for what happened on the bridge...it will be an honor to have you at my side, love."

Seb reads over the list himself after adding "If you think you can add anything useful, now would be the time. Go nuts." to Daniels.
After a moment he looks up. "There is one thing we haven't considered, and which I hope isn't the case. While the Chorus has made no attempt to do so, and possibly can't, we might want to just consider the possibility he can shift objects other than himself. And if he can, then it becomes a death trap, rather than a boon."
He lets a beat pass. "And no, I don't have a suggestion to fix that."

Alice gently returns his kiss and then softly cups his face between her hand and holds his eyes.
"Now listen Jon, This does need to be said...forget about everything else...all of it." Her tone is gentle but firm almost maternal.
"This is going to be very hard to hear, but you need to hear this." She draws a breath before continuing.
"What you face when you try to reach him, may not be Josh, if this happens, you NEED to stay focused and objective and let the ground team do what they need too baby"
She holds his gaze. "If you don't a lot of people could get hurt or killed and if it is not Josh and it gets away..." She lets this dig in deep...
"Now if there is a chance to save Josh I am with you all the way through the fires of hell...but if there is none..I am not going to let that thing hurt you"
"You do understand this..yes?"
