Expansion Fleet - Avalon Archive

"Are we going to use one of those catapolts Kolo told me about be for we left."

Done Sir **She hands him a pad and he looks it over and nods with approval**

(All active posters can go down and we can leave an unknown Ensign in command til  we return (lol)

*Suddenly, the energy cloud senses something is up...*
"Ships will not escape... Need energy from ships... Attack NOW!"
*And the swarm of pure energy suddenly seems to stretch out so wide that it looks like it fills the horizon of the universe, and in an incredible speed, it hurries toward both ships at once... In an instant, it is all around both the U.S.S. Evolution and U.S.S. Tiberon...*
"Need energy... NOW! No more deceiving... Na'jigat Lords of the Universe!"
*And the two ships begin to tremble, their structural integrity starts to fail...*

"Aye sir, warp eight."

I'm right behind ya.

Welcome to DS12.

((Im glad the DS9 is coming to Spike.......its the only place it will be airing in my area))

Lollock sees the energy wave following them on the viewer.

"Oh god, they're chasing us..."

"Yes, Admiral."

The massive and beautiful Avalon Station appears on the viewscreen, along with the planet Rivox, which the station orbits.

"Shall I contact Operations and request docking clearance?"

Computer, increase volume 1 level.

Does anyone mind?

Many hours and a few yawns later...

"Captain, Avalon Station is coming into visual range."

"How long till we reach Delta space and have to drop to warp 2?"

(OFF: Calm down spanky, that rule is for older starships. Picard ordered over warp 5 all the time...)

Karelia walks onto the bridge of the U.S.S. Tiberon and sees Captain Meridian sitting in his chair.

"Hello again, Captain. I assume you have heard of our next destination. The Tiberon is to escort the U.S.S. Evolution and A.S.C. Revox to the Nigillian Temples of Sordinan, where we are all to engage in a ceremony that will 'cleanse' us of our transgressions. Admiral Vorak and I will be joining you on this mission. After the ceremony is complete, the Tiberon is to proceed to Avalon Station where Admiral Vorak will disembark, then we will proceed home. Any questions?"

Ensign, take a security team to verify that that is Vurak.

"I don't believe so sir. Our reserves are only at 47%, but we can make it to DS12 pretty easily."

Yes Lieutenant, go ahead.

"good idea tom...mam/sir....the flare is ready to fire...on your word"

"Lieutenant, set course for DS12 and engage at maximum possible warp!"

"Sir, it is getting bigger and bigger i think we need to stop fireing at it!"

=/\=Bridge to Admiral Vorak, We are within range of station Avalon.=/\=

"A ship is designed for the purpose of comfortable interstellar space travel, Mr. Karelia, and not for bonding."
*Then he turns to Tara Lollock.*
"Please bring the station on the viewscreen."

OFF: there was no need to hail me over intercom, I was on the bridge all this time :P Yes I'm one of those admirals who will be on a ship's bridge at every opportunity :P

"Commander, if I may? I've been thinking back to an early 21st century concept for missile confusion. A fighter would drop a hot-burning flare when being tracked by a heat-sensitive missile. I suggest we do the same, by dropping the auxillary warp core as an energy 'flare'."

"Lieutenant Fred Lazarus reporting Captain, any orders sir? I am Chief of Ops"

understood sir.

Are there any religious or ceramonious customs that the senior staff should be notified of?? Just to make sure that we don't insult them.

''Understood, shall we leave now before I get to comfortable in this chair."

"Let's go."
*Nismos leaves the bridge and heads to the Irish clover*

"Aye Captain, we are now at 1/2 impulse."

The tiny figure of DS12 apears in the distance.

"aye mam....fireing flare..."

*hits button*

*flare fires*

"aye mam....heading down there now"

*the security detail reaches the shuttle bay and finds out that it is indeed Vurak....but the USS Evolution also has Vurak on their ship....*

"mam....it is indeed vurak....should i bring him to the bridge?"

OFF: i dont know if vurak will post here so if he doesnt i will post for him...if you dont mind

=/\=Nelson to Bridge=/\=

"umm...sir...do we have any guests on this ship...because i found Commander Vurak in Shuttle Bay 2...and is in a type 8 shuttle..."

OFF: I didn't see any communication message in the Revox and Evolution forum though :P

"If it is your shift then you will do your job at the time that is assigned to you, not after. Why should someone else be forced to do YOUR job when it is yours to do? Now please take your post and try to be on time from now on."

>-< A.S.C. Revox to U.S.S. Tiberon >-<
Have a blessed journey home, and thank you for coming along. I hope our paths may cross again in the future.
>-< Ardwyad out >-<

"Human sentiment, most intruiging."

Yes, it was nice to see you.

*Ardwyad transmits the transporter coordinates to the U.S.S. Tiberon and U.S.S. Evolution, so the away teams will find themselves at the entrance of the temples.*

OFF: the away team goes to post on the "Alliance HQ" board, forum "Temples of Sordinan" (more below on the board) please. You may have to register your character on that board first.

(Edited by Ardwyad at 5:30 pm on Jan. 19, 2004)

"sir and mam....i wonder why our weapons werent effecting it....oh and i cant beleive that we left our captain and commander...and the rest of the away team over there at the temples...are we going to go back?"

OFF: should we go or wait till the message is through?

Truer words were never spoken.

(The Chief of OPs transfered so i was promoted or so the roster says )

Silok came onto the bridge. he had taken an unnoticed leave to see about a transfer. being back from it he was to remain.

*Enters the bridge*
"Well admiral, are you ready to go home?"

OFF: yes thats the idea. Im just waiting for Karelia to say "energize" lol.

"Mr. Hedford, we have just concluded very important negotiations with a faction called the Delta Alliance. They are an alliance between several species, who have formed some sort of Federation not unlike our U.F.P. The U.S.S. Evolution is following their ship to the borders of their space near the Quantum Singularity Network, where captain Sanchez is needed to visit certain... temples. It is according to the custom of the Nigillian species. We are to accompany the U.S.S. Evolution."

"Aye sir, setting coordinates. Speed, sir?"

"Aye, Commander, Warp 9.965!"

yes Commander, I understand.

"Admirals, Commodore, Captain."

Nerotis took a empty spot on the transporter.

*The Quantum Singularity was restless... as if a force was stirring, abiding its time to strike. And this time was about to come soon...*
Na'jigat stronger... Na'jigat recovering from Gallifreyan assault... Gallifreyans cannot defeat Na'jigat... Na'jigat Lord of the Universe... Preparing to gain more energy... Scanning prey... Three ships... Scanning minds of humanoids... U.S.S. Evolution... U.S.S. Tiberon... A.S.C. Revox... Energy supplies strong... Defenses nihil... Scanning for Gallifreyan dangers... None... Begin procedure..."
*And at the far horizon of the Quantum Singularity Network, a wave of pure energy began to form... energy so strong that no firepower and no shielding could possibly withhold it... The Na'jigat had unleashed its power, a power that had even proven fatal to Borg cubes and Species 8472 ships more than once before... And the Na'jigat energy lifeforms began to hum...*
"Na'jigat... Na'jigat... Na'jigat..."
*At that same moment, some sort of strong energy field suddenly surrounded the Temples on the planet of Sordinan... But the strange thing was, the shield was not being generated by any technology on the planet, it appeared naturally out of nowhere, and was stronger than any form of technology could ever generate... And it blocked everything... transporters, communications, even telepathic communications... Nothing could go in, nothing could come out... And soon, the people who are NOT within this shield, will find themselves wishing they were inside this shield of protection too, for it is the only protection against the Na'jigat...*

*At that moment, the U.S.S. Tiberon turns around and tries to escape by heading back to Deep Space 12.*
"Na'jigat sensing fear... Na'jigat sensing plans to run away... Senses do not come from U.S.S. Evolution... Other ship! Other ship! U.S.S. Tiberon... trying to escape...  Must gain the energy of this ship! Not let it escape! Na'jigat Lords of the Universe... drain energy, destroy ship!"
*And the cloud of energy releases the U.S.S. Evolution all of a sudden, and heads for the U.S.S. Tiberon at full speed. No matter how fast the U.S.S. Tiberon goes, the energy wave matches speed and keeps getting closer...*

OFF: Should I come along?

"mam!....we did it!....the field is not chaseing us any more!"

*The swarm of energy keeps moving closer, and as firepower is hitting, it absorbs the energy and grows even stronger...*
"Na'jigat likes energy... Na'jigat Lords of the Universe becoming stronger... Want more energy... More...*

OFF: as you will discover, no weapons have effect on the Na'jigat whatsoever. If anything, they like to absorb the energy amount that comes free by a phaser burst or torpedo explosion. If you read the USS Evolution forum (Avalon Fleet) you will see what happens to the poor ship :P

The EMH fades into view.

"Please state the nature of the medical emergency.

(OFF: Keep all posts in this topic...)

Lollock sees the Evolution get swollowed by the wave.

"Hail the Evolution! What's going on?"

=/\=I want you and your team to escort our visitor to sickbay, i'll meet you there.=/\=

=/\=Lollock to sickbay, Doctor prepare for myself, a security team and a visitor to join you soon.=/\=

Karelia you have the bridge.

"Thank you Adm. Karelia, and may I say that you made a fine choice for her captain."

"Thank you... and you're welcome..."

Lazarus walked to the bridge, going to the Captain and Commander
"I request a Temp. Feild commision to be an OPs Officer untill the Ticonderoga(sp?) is commisioned, I wish to help and do something, I feel I can untill my duties call as XO"
 

"Warp 4.5 Mr. Karelia"

Lazarus thought for a bit...

"...It would only be torpedos, we could divert power from phasers, and even the warp core, there has to be enough power, even it it would take life support, I can run computer simulations, but we seem to be running out of time!"

*Vorak enters the bridge.*
"It appears that both ships are still in good condition. Status report, please? I would like to know if energy supplies are sufficient for a journey to Avalon Station. I would like to return to my station as soon as possible."

" Lt. Karelia set a course, warp 5."
(OFF: Let's roll)

OFF: I need the ship CO's status report, thank you.)

"Yes, Commander."

Tom presses a few buttons.

"DS12 reports Docking Ramp 3 is cleared for our arrival. Slowing to 1/16th impulse."

The Tiberon shudders slightly.

"We are now docked with DS12. Bringing the warp core and fusion generators offline."

Lieutenant Karelia, please make sure that the Admirals orders are carried out.

*Shortly later, the ship nears the Temples of Sordinan. On the viewscreen, the bright light of the Quantum Singularity Network can be seen, stretching out wider than could possibly be fitted on the viewscreen. In front of it, a planet is located... where the Temples of Sordinan can be found. Not far away from this planet, some sort of station can be seen, but not a normal station. Attached to it is a large device, having the shape of a horizontal half moon, and next to it the same one but mirrorred.... the Null-Space Catapult.*

>-< A.S.C. Revox to U.S.S. Evolution and U.S.S. Tiberon >-<
We are nearing the Temples of Sordinan. Be welcome to the borders of Delta Alliance and Nigillian space. Please drop out of warp and upon arriving at the planet before you, please take a standard orbit. I will send you the coordinates you can transport down to.
>-< Ardwyad out >-<

"Red Alert! Back us off! Tactical, ready phasers!"

(OFF: This is Karelia, I am posting for Cmdr. Lollock until she does, because we need someone in command.)

"Set a course Lt. Karelia, warp 8.Engage."
OFF: Let's roll

=/\=nelson to fed=/\=

"greetings sir....i am a security officer on this bridge"

"Aye, sir, warp five."

Lazarus walked to the Ops Station, and began checking over his consoles.

OFF: Avalon Station (Starfleet HQ board) has a docking forum where you can post your request Whoa good to be home at last lol

"Please do not include in your message, that me and Mr. Hedford are returning to the station as well. I wish to see the condition of my station after a long absence, without their preparation for my return or any warning of my return."

=/\= Captain Meridian here.=/\=

Do as he says.

(((Glad to see someone posting)))

"Do it."

*The turbolift doors slide open and reveal Flag Admiral Vorak. He steps onto the bridge and looks at Fleet Admiral Karelia and captain Nismos.*
"Greetings, captain. I have called Commodore Hedford to come aboard immediately as well. As soon as he has arrived, you may depart."

"Thank you miss Lollock, it will be good spending a night in a comfortable bed again.:"

Hedford follows the Commander into her office

"So Commander, I wasn't totally briefed on our mission. Could you please tell me what our destination is, I don't want to embarrass myself infront of the admirals "

"Take your station, Lieutenant. What's going on with the cloud?"

"reporting as OPs Officer"

"Anything? Did they have an effect?"

*Mutters under his breath*
"Idiot"

"Right, logic dictates a fast action, but not unplanned. I suggest we use a probe. it will use less power from our own systems as probes have power to go into far distances. and wouldn't take up a torpedo that might be needed"

(OFF: Sorry, been very busy lately.)

"Captain, we are within visual range of DS12."

yeah because being klingon might provoke you into a fight?....... *realizes what he said* ohh..... I am sorry commander, I did not mean anything by that. please forgive me, you are a very nice person.

(OFF: Oh, you wanted an actual message, I thought we would just assume it went through...)

=/\= Tiberon to Evolution and Revox. We will be leaving for Avalon Station now. Have a safe journey. Tiberon out. =/\=

OFF: pom pom pom....

"What is the estimated time of arrival at Avalon Station?"

Lazarus's console gives a sound, and he turns to see it.
"Captain, I am reading that the energy cloud is retreating, its cleared all it had...."

"I have not seen Ensign Silok, Commander, should I take the OPs station untill he arrives?"

Will looks at Meridian.

(OFF: Keep in mind that while your title says Commander, you are still technically a Lieutenant until you actually move to the Ticonderoga.)

*Nismos chukles at the situation that Soran just got himself into.*

"Lt. Fred Lazarus Reporting for Cheif of OPs sir"

We'll be alright.  

(sry 4 the delay)

"Excelent. Begin replenishing our power. Well, not too bad of a first misssion as Captain. Any points that I need to work on? Feel free to critisize."

(I can't believe that Fox canceled Enterprise. I almost cried. Oh yea by the way I think we are officially done with this mission so now we don't have to post here any more.)

"Computer, play Jazz selection: Meridian-alpha1.Volume low."

=NOW PLAYING=
(Poker?)

"Aye, Commander."

Lets do warp 5 until were a safe distance from the area then increase to warp 8.

"Yes Admiral, we can set course for Avalon Station any time."

**Lollock chuckles** Lt. Cmdr. just remember who evaluates you each year.

*Just a matter of seconds later, the turbolift doors slide open again and Commodore Hedford walks onto the bridge.*
"Commodore Hedford reporting, admiral. I was just one turbolift behind yours, admiral Vorak."

OFF: yes mam...lol i know...but at the moment i didnt know what it was so...i just said flare...:)...and yes hopefully the even horizon...will do something good...:D

"Forgive me if I'm wrong but I believe that it is illeagel to go faster than warp 5 unless it is an emergency"
(I Got it. lol. Hey if you want to go faster thats fine with me.)

*Commander Soran was in his quarters getting ready for his shift and he realized he was late again, he quickly finished and reported to the bridge*

*walks onto the bridge and then to his post*

Captain, Am I needed on the bridge or will the new ensign in security take over for my failing to show up for work?

REquest permission to dock and initiate docking procedures upon their acceptance.

I dont see any problem with that. What do you think SIR?

=/\= Lieutenant Karelia to Admiral Karelia. Will, what's going on down there? =/\=

"Most certainly, Mr. Hedford."
*Vorak proceeds with the rest of the away team to the transporter room, and shortly later he and Hedford arrive with the rest of the away team and take place among the others on the transporter pad. Then he gazes at admiral Karelia, and waits for him to say the "energize" command, since it is after all his ship.*

(OFF:So wuts next?)

"Lt. Karelia, set coordinets and take us out."

Is there anyone posting????

"aye sir, hailing frequencies open....sir...they arent responding!"

*The away team dematerializes.*

OFF: away team now post in Alliance HQ board, Temples of Sordinan forum.

OFF: LOL omg haha. Anyway, sorry for not being able to post for some days. I'll release your ship for other adventures now and beam back to the station :P

*Vorak and Hedford arrive in the transporter room and take place on the transporter pad.*
"Energize, ensign."
*And the two are beamed over back to Avalon Station.*

"Avalon is quite a ways from here, sir, about 16 hours, but if we increase to warp 8, we can be there in 5."

(OFF: Did no one catch my 'Ludicrous Speed' joke?)

"if its energy this thing needs, why not fire a group of torpedos, it would follow, if we take power from the ship, and make it so there is more in the torpedo fire"

"It would take a #### of a lot of power to make torpedoes more powerful than the ship. If only there were an asteroid around here, we could saturate it with high-energy neutrinos from the deflector..."

"On screen and drop out of warp."

*After consuming the warp core of the Tiberon, the U.S.S. Evolution had done a similar thing, but with inverted energy. This seemed to take the energy cloud longer to consume, but consume it did... The cloud of energy peacefully continues to consume the energy of the warp core, slowly growing stronger bit by bit... but never losing sight of the U.S.S. Evolution and U.S.S. Tiberon, and never stopping to listen to the thoughts and words of the humanoids on these ships, who are desperately planning either a defensive or offensive...*
"Na'jigat Lords of the Universe... Tear all energy from warp core.... Becoming stronger... Humanoids want to offer their defense... Listening to their thoughts... Taurik speaking... Now receiving all their mind pathwaves... Now becoming aware of all their plans... Na'jigat Lords of the Universe... None can escape us... None can deceive us..."

"Welcome aboard, we couls use your help in the current situation, I am Cheif of Ops on the Tiberon"

"Permisson granted, you'll have to report to Mr. Silok to get your shifts scheuled."
*Looks at lollock*
"Do we need to replenish any of our power or supplies before we head back to DS12?"

Karelia gazes around the bridge, just taking in the scene.

"I never took the time to realize just how beautiful the Tiberon is. You have a fine ship here, Captain."

Hedford was talking to one of the other crewmembers as he suddenly noticed that they had arrived. He moved over to Admiral Vorak

"Shall we join them as well Admiral Vorak?"

*Vorak raises an eyebrow.*

*At that moment, the telepathic energy shield that had protected the planet of Sordinan all this time, suddenly disconnects itself and instead, begins to reform into a long arrow beam, pointing at the two ships. At an incredible speed, it hits the Na'jigat energy cloud and pierces it... The blinding light of the arrow beam tears into the wave as if inflicting a wound on the flesh of a humanoid.*
"RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! Na'jigat under attack! GALLIFREYANS HAVE COME! Must attack Gallifreyans instead! No, Gallifreyans too many, Na'jigat too few... RETREAT! RETREAT! NO, NA'JIGAT LORDS OF THE UNIVERSE NEVER RETREAT! RETREAT OR BE WOUNDED AND WEAK WITHOUT ENERGY! LET GO OF PREY, RETURN ANOTHER TIME! RETREAT! RETREAT!"
*And suddenly, the energy cloud releases the shuttle the U.S.S. Evolution had launched, just in time before the shuttle's structural integrity would have failed. Seconds later, the energy cloud also releases the U.S.S. Evolution and U.S.S. Tiberon, and retreats all together. The arrow beam keeps hunting down the energy cloud, and the energy cloud keeps fleeing in terror.*
"MUST RETREAT TO SAFER AREA! RETURN TO QUANTUM SINGULARITY NETWORK! GALLIFREYANS CANNOT CATCH US THERE! RETREAT! RETREAT!"
*And what seemed to be like an eternity for the onlooker, but was in fact only a matter of minutes, the energy swarm heads back for the nearby Quantum Singularity Network, still being chased by the energy arrow, and seconds later, the energy cloud melts into the singularities and seems to vanish all together. Right in front of the singularities, the beam arrow halts, because it is not strong enough to follow in there, and simply dissolves. And all was suddenly quiet again...*

"Na'jigat prepared... seeking energy... energy in abundance... Reading minds of puny humanoids... Not worthy for Na'jigat Lords of the Universe... Distract energy... destroy remnants..."
*And seemingly slow for the onlooker, but incredibly fast in truth, a huge wave of bright energy fills the horizon of the universe, coming toward the ships...  Suddenly it wavers...*
"Na'jigat detecting other energy... Source on planet... Settlement discovered on planet... Reading minds... NOT ABLE TO READ MINDS! Field blocks Na'jigat!!!! Cannot reach minds!!! Reading minds of puny humanoids... humanoids call planet Sordinan! Planet protected... prepare to distract all energy..."
*Suddenly, the wave embraces the entire planet, since the wave of energy is large enough to swallow almost an entire solar system at once...  and the ground on the planet shakes. The planet of Sordinan can no longer be seen within the surrounding waves of energy, but then suddenly the waves turn away...*
"Inverse energy! Cannot withdraw it! Energy takes from us than we from the energy! Na'jigat Lord of the Universe... this is unacceptable! Retaliation strong! Turn to ships at once and destroy!"
*And now the waves of energy went straight to the U.S.S. Evolution and U.S.S. Tiberon, ready to destroy...*

OFF: the A.S.C. Revox has landed on the planet's surface, so it isnt under attack.

"But more power than a starship?"
Lazarus gave a silent sigh, 'Vulcans' he thought 'logic is the dictator'

"In fact, Mr. Karelia, according to the stellar cartography data they have transferred to me, the nearest catapult is at the Temples of Sordinan. There is none closer to bring us there. However, the distance is not very far and within a matter of hours we should be able to reach the location of the Temples of Sordinan at current speed. As for their customs, I believe it is very important NOT to enter the Quantum Singularity Network. They see this area as sacred to their gods, and no mortal may enter it."

Welcome aboard sirs, im executive officer Commander Lollock. Let me go see to your accomidations.
**Lollock steps off the bridge and head towards her office**

"I'd like to thank you Admiral for coming aboard and hope you had a  nice trip."
OFF: Sorry for not posting. Been busy.

*rushes through the ship*

Wait for me! I'm on the away team! Oh sh*t... they left without me. *Goes to his station*

"By all means."

(OFF: Its not actually a flare, its a warp core. BTW, we have to wait for Event Horizon to see if it works.)

"Excelent"

"How about we go to the Irish Clover and celebrate our return home.Drinks are on me."

(Your lucky, I don't have cable or satelite.)

"I am going to forget I heard that, Mr. Hedford..." Will says with a chuckle.

"Oh come now, Admiral, don't tell me you have no sort of bond with the ships under your command..."

=/\=USS Tiberon to Captain Nismos=/\=

"sir, we have detected something strange coming toward the ship"

"Aye, Commander."

*Tom sends a message to the Evolution and Revox.*

"Ready to depart, sir."

Karelia's panel begins to beep loudly.

"Commander, I am picking up something on long-range sensors. Massive amounts of concentrated energy... several light years away... heading this way at incredible speeds."

We need ideas people? How can we save our energy supplies?

 

(Edited by Jack Wepps at 10:52 pm on Feb. 24, 2004)

" Commander Lollock, please form a list of crew members that need to visit the temple, and work out a system of rotation so we can get every one down there in a slightly organized manner. Senor staff first."

(Sparky? How do you get sparky from following the law,or what I ACIDENTLY thought was the law. Whos CAPTAIN Mr."I want to get demoted to CREWMAN" huh?)

"That would make Tiberon less appealing, but we need it to ignore us completely. I suggest we take all power generation systems off-line, essentially drying up the well."

Sir, i dont know what it is!...but it is large!...i think it might be dangerous if the away team stays down in the temples!!....

OFF: I think so, only if you are on the away team.

*After a number of Music selections DS12 appears on sensores*
"Home again home again, jigdy jog. On screen."
OFF Sorry for not posting, been busy.

OFF:Sure.

"Commander, we're losing structural integrity! Helm control is down! Energy stores now at 93 percent and falling!"

"Yes, once we enter Alliance space, warp speeds above warp 2 are not to be used. We will use a subspace catapult to get us near the temples."

OFF: How about I say energize.

OFF: i will be glad to take tactical...and i thought i already did...lol...Soran already told me to take tactical...but anyways

"aye sir phasers ready"

*hits a few buttons*

Hedford runs out of the turbolift and while running he was still getting his clothes on.

"Sorry Admiral, I had some business which needed to be done. It's a real pitty that we have to leave this beautiful Tiberon with it's fine crew and lovely nurses..."

Hedford was looking in one of the consoles, to see if his hair was in the right shape.

"Commander! The energy is coming straight for us!"

"Any Orders Commander?"

(OFF: LOL!)

(OFF: We need something to pass the time until we arrive...)

(OFF: Should we create new characters on Alliance board)

"Aye, Captain. Warp Five."

The Tiberon goes to warp at Ludicrous Speed.

"Energy... Energy... Na'jigat Lords of the Universe... Need energy! U.S.S. Tiberon full of energy... full of... what? Pure energy drifting in space! Na'jigat needs energy!"
*Only moments after the U.S.S. Tiberon has ejected the auxillary warp core, the energy wave loses interest in the ship and heads for the core drifting in space. In a matter of moments, the warp core vanishes inside the energy cloud as it begins to consume the raw energy. And thus, the Na'jigat energy beings grow stronger...*

OFF: there is only a secrity officer on board, Nelson, but he could take over tacitcal until I can return to the ship.

"Most certainly. When we arrive at Avalon Station, the U.S.S. Tiberon can dock to have energy supplies refuelled. But please, do inform the U.S.S. Evolution and A.S.C. Revox of our departure from this area of space, before we go to warp."

Lazarus spoke up,
"Sir, we could try taking all weapons power offline and diverting thier power to Life-Support or ship Energy"

Karelia looks at the Ensign at the transporter console.

"Energize"

(OFF: Sorry for the delay, been busy.)
