"No, Captain.  I will leave it to your Col to debreif you, but I know you know about Omega and once we land or crash on the surface I need your men ready to search out Omega at a moments notice.  Scouting only." Simon asked the good Captain.

Richerd entered the Cargo Bay holding one end of what looked to be a weapon locker, at the other end was a Private, most likely one of the more... "Special" ones with the way he was glaring at Richerd.

He had heard the last part. "Yeah... and I just hope we land her in a way to let this old bird fly again." he didn't like the thought of all of this, they could be losing another star ship... and with some of the ship yards here in idle mothball... he was unsure of how they would get a new Marine ship.

He just hope that they didn't go all the way to crash landing the ship.

He then had the container placed on one of the cargo transporters and stepped away from it. He turned to face the Colonel.

"That was the last supply box for the mortar team... I have all the Pelicans and Pumas prepped for fast take off, and well... Permission to lead part of the mission?"

He was not mentioning the real problem with the private who was standing guard over the weapon supplies on the cargo transporter, ready to be beamed to pattern buffers of the troop drop ships.

He then waited at attention, paying little attention to the Sentient Robot at the moment.

((I would think that if a Marine ship... has shields and needs a Marine attack force off ship... they would have one of those... or two. Just a thought. They would be armed of course.))

Cloud and the others are able to take out a few turrets.

He yells, "Parker, Jonson, Young, take the injured and get them out of here! Miller, Hank, and Stevens with me, cover them."

Parker, Young, and Jonson carry out the wounded, as Cloud, Miller, Hank, and Stevens cover them.

(OFF: Five hundred marines are not going to fit on a New Orleans-class ship, much less twice that, assuming you imagined bringing a full battalion. Five hundred people is nearly the Lothlorien's whole crew. 17th Battalion consists of about 1500 marines, only about 250 of which can be spaceborne at any one time.)

"Thank you, Captain Rajnus. And it's nice to meet you, Mr. Dolan." She said softly, taking his hand in hers and shaking it before seating herself next to the Captain. "I apologize for not introducing myself sooner. I'm Lieutenant Sayuri, Ship's Counselor."

She squinted, looking at the symbol only half puzzled. "Omega. It's part of the ancient greek alphabet, is it not? It's also used in partical physics and mathematics, among other things.." She trailed off, not wanting to say too much more.

Post by: Raszagal on December 20, 2007, 04:22:54 AM
Raszagal peered from a small breach in the outer hull, to see the Heraani ranks be nearly decimated by the deflector pulse. She grabbed the sniper rifle from a nearby weapons rack that had spilled open, and activated the tactical display on her helmet. This display linked directly into the targeting sensors in the rifle, giving her a high-powered digital scope, regardless of whether the rifle was raised to her eye.

She honed in on one particularly ornate set of armor, worn by a Heraan that carried two small plasma rifles.

Szzzoooo.

The shot, audible only to those in or near the firing line, completely drained the Heraani lieutenant's personal body shields, and the small, bright crystal that powered the shields flickered to a dim shadow of it's original color. There was a hole in his armor as well, surrounded by dark purple ichor.

Szzzoooo.

The second shot was aimed right at the alien's cranium, and there was no doubt of the lieutenant's condition when his head vaporized from the intense energy beam.

As the smoldering corpse fell to the ground, the already dazed subordinates around him were nearly in shock as they watched their officers get picked off one by one. Without their officers to lead them, the inferior Heraan tried to take command, but fell into various ambushes and traps much easier, and were severely hindered in their efficiency, without the psionics to lead them.

Post by: Dar'Nas on December 30, 2007, 05:55:43 PM
Dar'Nas grabbed a phaser and set it to its highest setting and started to fire. The Heraani began to recover from the pulse and were starting to fire back. Dar'Nas took cover behind a tree trunk along with two other crew members, the top of the tree had snapped off duing the deflector pulse. The three had taken out a number of Heraani and began to fall back because the tree was weakened from the pulse and the weapons fire and soon it would break through the tree. they were now back in the open and still falling back bacause their phasers were losing power from being on maximum.

<The Heraan ship soon came into low orbit around Dantor near Station Avalon>

"Alright, All Starfleet crew as of now your on Shore leave.  Marines your on shore leave as well so take advantage of it." Rajnus said as he left for the transporter room to be transported to Avalon station.

<Whispering in Richards ear>

"Download what you can.  Then do what you do best on the rest.  Also find out what the others have downloaded and hope its nothing of a security risk to our operations." Rajnus told Richards quietly, then he heard Voyager and quickly left Richards side and hobbled towards Voyager.

"Im doing fine, Lt.  Yes, I was injured for some reason ive healed more rapidly then most but im still sore.  How things going with you?" Simon asked, obviously concerned about his crew.

Tom shrugged. "I was young, and I'm sure even you remember what it was like to be nieve like that, Director." he said, stating Simon's Intelligence Rank. "Still, not only was no harm done, but I highlighted a few areas for improvement in the network security, which I noticed were worked upon, but could use some more effort."

"And it seems that Admiral Yates is a wise man. I wouldn't want me as my enemy, either. Especially when given enough time I can coax whatever piece of information out of a computer system."

(OFF: No god moding, HK...)

The Heraani commander stared vengefully at the upstart Gallifreyan. "I knew it would only be a matter of time before the gods-damned Gallifreyans showed up!"

He then perked up. "Wait, I know you." Despite the fact that the Heraan had no mouths, the proverbial grin on his face was obvious. "Raszagal, the fallen Templar. How quaint. You honestly dare to stand between me and my prey? You could have been a great general of our armadas. Even I would have been proud to serve the one Gallifreyan to revere the Na'jigat as the gods they are. But you let that bumbling fool Techerakh dissuade you, and it has become apparent that you are nothing but a pathetic pawn of their misguided ways. While killing you will be no great achievement, your death will bring me untold pleasure."

The commander then raised his gauntlet blades, and lunged at Raszagal.

"That was it, to tell you I knew who you were and who you were working for which turns out your working for me and Admiral Yates." Simon told Aariya.

"Your right, I am erratic which is why I have never been caught off guard.  If I did the same thing every day in the exact same way and did everything at the exact same time, you realize how many people would have taken their chance and killed me if I was so timely.  But, just to let you know, your father was a double agent working for me.  Your father was a very good man and a very good agent.  I assume thats why my old friend Admiral Yates recruited you into the Intelligence business.  Im sure your aware its not all fun and games either.  Whats said in this room and between fellow Intelligence officers onboard this ship is kept between us.  This is how I know whats going on, on this ship is because of them.  Now, for the shuttle.  It was carrying a very good friend of mine and probly the best agent I know.  If it wasnt for him, I would probly be dead by now on numerous occassions." Simon said truefully.

"I have a different personality when in private then when im out their on that bridge.  When im out their, I have to be erratic and decisive.  When im in here, its another story, understood?" Simon finished.

<Looking over to Dolan, then back at Yates>

"Hes capable, tho not an engineer.  But theirs hope if he can stop thinking like a new recruit and think instead in unorthodox ways to solve problems.  Hes still too green and always falls back on his academy training to solve problems when he should be trying new and inventive ways to solve problems no matter how old or new it is.  But all in all, their is hope." Simon told the Admiral and gave him a quick smirk before Dolan could notice.

Dolan monitored his prototype's condition using his tricorder.  It was holding up very well, considering its prototype status.  He waited uneasily for the Lothlorien to be "decommissioned".  He felt the burden of a memory very similar to this one, but pushed thoughts of that away.  He forced himself to focus and then to try and decode the strange language the Heraan used.

Post by: Voyager on November 19, 2007, 03:00:03 AM
((OOC: Lol, thanks.  This is really what you get when the only Star Trek you knew when you grew up was Voyager :D .  And how about briefing the senior officers too, since Starfleet obviously can't be contacted to eliminate the particle?  That would allow the rest of us lowly officers to get in on the action ;) .  Also, to point out a little conflict...Starfleet banned all research on Omega and it is extremely classified, so it doesn't exactly make sense that Starfleet researchers are making Omega.))

Dolan was relieved when the engines unlocked themselves and wondered why the computer did that in the first place.  He ran a quick diagnostic and found nothing wrong with the computer.  He had two engineering teams sent to each of the computer cores, to see if there was any interference of any sort.  When he tried to access the most recent computer actions, he was surprised to see it locked down and encrypted.  Dolan struggled to remain calm as he started to panic, as nothing during the Academy prepared him for this.  The computer seemed to be following different commands and Dolan couldn't figure out why.  He quickly regained control and forced himself to stay calm.  He decided to contact the bridge to see if any additional information could be provided.

=/\= Dolan to the Bridge, we have warp and impulse engines back online.  I can't seem to find out what caused the shutdown of the engines or the lockout on the bridge.  The computer's recent actions have also mysteriously lock down and have been encrypted to an unknown code.  Do you have any information on what is going on? =/\=

Quinn jogged into the bridge at the crash site, gripping a phaser rifle tightly in his hands. He breathed heavily from the running and only did he calm himself did he notice Rajnus(Captain) on the ground. Aw crap.

He ran over and knelt down beside the man aiding the Captain.

"Yes Sir." Richerd said. he laughed silently at being called a Captain, when he was a major, but the stress of the upcoming event might be making people give mistakes.

He left the Bridge and within a minute he had everything prep and ready to go, at the second that they reach the planets atmosphere, he was planning to lead this himself... he needed to keep an eye on those around him, just in case information leaked out about Omega, and he didn't want that to happen, the closet that he was going to let his men to the particle would be the outer walls of the building. If that close at all.

Soon he smiled. =A= I got everything ready here... do you want a Kitchen sink to come too? I think we have room for that too.=A= He laughed at the joke but the joke had a serious tone to it... that he was ready for a worst case scenario.

Dolan helped carry containers full of everything a person could imagine - people's belongings, PADDs, isolinear chips, spare ship parts, EPS conduits, engineering kits, torpedo casings, phasers, phaser rifles, tricorders of every shape and size, and many other items - to the Heraani ship, where everything was dropped in a cargo bay large enough to hold all of the miscellaneous items considered "salvagable" by the crew and marines.  After several hours work, the salvage was complete and Dolan tapped his combadge.

=/\= Dolan to the Captain and Colonel Balkazar =/\=

The salvage has been completed, we are ready to get everyone in and take off.  The remote warp core overload has been set up.  Awaiting further orders.

The Heraani commander stepped closer and closer, his eyes glowing a vibrant blue. Raszagal tried to pull her khala to her hand, but the commander caught it with his foot, and mockingly used his own weapon to slice the khala in two.

The young Gallifreyan crawled backwards, sure she was about to die, but wracking her brain tremendously for any idea as to how to save herself from this mess. Then, she remembered the Khaydarin crystal inside of her khala. It was the crystal that focused the psionic power of a Gallifreyan to produce the weapon's energy blade.

By this time, she had inched far enough to be within arm's reach of her weapon's remains. She grabbed the severed sword quickly, and immediately channeled her power into the crystal. There was no order to the effort, just pure desperation.

The Heraani commander noticed her reach for the crystal, and immediately swung at her. His blade was met by a field of pure psionic power. Raszagal noticed the effect, and amazingly, intensified her efforts, focusing them, finer, and finer. Each time she pushed a little more, channeled a little deeper, until she was able to hit the commander with such psionic force that his own powers were insufficient to resist. He was knocked backward with such force, that his blades deactivated when he hit the ground.

Raszagal took this opportunity. She immediately pushed off of the ground with all of the force she had, both physical and psionic, until she was able to land a kick on the commander to rival his own.

Post by: Thomas Richards on January 26, 2008, 09:42:54 PM
Tom watched Dolan through the security feed he had routed to his console - through various other consoles to hide his infiltration. He had moved consoles twice since the Director had spoken to him, making it seem as if he was trying to help with the running and maintenance of the ship.

Dolan had somehow found his way to an as-of-yet unexplored storage room. Tom only knew where he was because he had been keeping an electronic eye on the Lieutenant, as per the Captain's instructions. Tom double-checked something at the edge of the screen, while at the same time looking briefly over his shoulder inconspicuously. Good, nobody was looking his way, and noone was even close to him. He wouldn't need to move consoles again yet.

He nodded slightly in satisfaction. The files pertaining to the identification of those objects, and the inventories of all storage rooms on the vessel, were among the files he had managed to safely lock out access to. The information was above his clearance level, but he was tempted to have a look anyway, just out of rebellious curiosity...

No. He was still feeling the brunt of the punishment from his last case of disregarding his clearance level. He had better leave the files be.

"Make sure the recruits have their gear stowed.  Something isnt right." Balkazar told them.

"Yes, after that lil stunt you pulled you gave the engineer's something to do by rebuilding the computer system after you sent a virus to disrupt everything else on the computer, Agent Richards.  But your right, if you were my enemy I would have you shot for what you did.  But its humerous cuz I have a job for you.  When not playing my operations officer you will be assigned to the marines.  I believe they need someone with your computer skills to be part of some special squad that they are putting together thats comprised of both starfleet and marines.  An old earth team that was around in the 19th-20th centuries, called SEAL's.  So when your not playing Agent your with them.  But your first task is to starfleet.  So, here is a list of Agents onboard this vessel, theirs about 20 Agents including Aariya Sayuri the ships shrink.  I want you to keep an eye on Dolan.  He has potential for recruitment but for now I want him watched and I want you to hack into his console and keep an eye on him without him knowing he was hacked into.  Is that understood?, I dont like being caught off guard and you and Aariya are my special Agents in that regard.  Understood?"

"Also, my old friend Richard Brown used to be under my command and hes an Intelligence Agent too." Simon added.

When his shift ended a couple hours later, Dolan walked up to Rajnus and offered him a PADD.

"Well, this is just a prototype, but I'd like you to look at my phaser bank design.  I've really just managed to condense most of the components needed for the phaser bank.  However, instead of using a power cell to be the only thing powering the phasers, I've managed to design a far more compact version of a fusion reactor, allowing fire with more power, though the phasers can be reworked to be hooked up to the main reactor if all else fails.  The phasers also can fire on approaching enemies all on their own, since they are equipped with their own sensors, though their range is more limited than a ship's.  The result is a far more efficient weapon, as it can defend a ship by itself and would not be stopped if main power goes offline."

Post by: Voyager on November 15, 2007, 02:32:17 AM
Dolan relaxed his salute.  He was so relieved, he almost missed seeing an engineer that entered the bridge.  He excused himself from the group and reached the engineer, who handed Dolan a PADD with a status report on the ship.  Dolan thanked the engineer and dismissed him.  After the doors closed, he started looking over the report.  As he read it over, he remembered the nanites Rajinus had injected into the ship's systems and made a note to ask him about them.

He slams into things, and smacking his head a few times before he nears their doorway.

He giggles as he looks in.

"That's gonna sting in the morning" he grunted through gritting teeth, vaguely aware that nobody would have heard him, and the comment was meant mainly to raise his own spirits slightly, as he pulled himself back up to fire again at the Heraan.

"Sir! We need to do something! We can't carry on like this forever!" he yelled at Balkazar.

"That is correct. Also the Omega Directive is the onlyone that may cancel out the Prime Directive. It is that important to destroy the partical."

*...He looks to simon...*

"Dolan is a very cpable but he is still fairly new to this. I think it is far more appropiat for General Powell to lead the team. He is trained to handle the descruction of the partical."

Dolan took the PADD that Powell handed him and hurried down to where the Omega was being stored.  A couple of marines followed beside him.  He quickly read over the instructions on how to destroy the Omega and hoped he understood them well enough.  When he reached the containment field, he was relieved at how few particles there were.  It seemed the scientists had only managed to make several particles before fleeing the facility for whatever reason.  He reread the instructions before starting the procedure to have the molecules destroyed.

Dolan followed the sergeant to the entrance down below.  When he went down, he was surprised at his surroundings.  The corridor were completely white and empty and a faint glow came from the walls.  It was also fairly wide, roughly one and a half times the width of a standard ship's corridors.  A few marines were walking slowly down the corridor with their guns up.  Dolan thought he saw the light bend in some areas and thought he was just tired.  He checked his tricorder and started walking down the corridor, just behind the marines, and followed where his tricorder indicated the Omega was located.

<HK recognized it as a Marine by the way of the Uniform but unknown of the organization.  Then proceeded taking out Heraani as they went till they came close to the Command chamber, outside the armored marines looked around despite the sounds they heard from inside, they looked around guarding the door.  HK motioned his troop to guard the door too, then engaged his own personal cloaking device and entered the command chamber.  As he entered the main chamber he noticed that several Heraani soldiers armed with plasma rifles were closing in around her.  HK silently moved behind 2 of the Soldiers, then stabbed upwards into the Heraani soldiers back's between the chinks in their armor, then raised them both high into the air enjoying the silent screams of pain that were going threw their bodies>  

<As they wreathed back and forth in pain as the life soon exited their bodies.  Once lifeless, HK threw the now dead bodies back at their comrades and watched their eyes as they soon became fearful as their dead comrades landed ontop of them.  Blood from the Heraani soldiers were dripping from HK's face and arms as HK reveled in the 2 deaths and the carnage of battle.  He then looked at the now the other Heraani soldiers as blood rage were in their eyes and it only intensified at the loss of 2 of their comrades and their leader>

Raszagal continued to covertly assassinate the Heraani leadership. Shot after shot, she picked off the most opportune targets. As she honed in to fire the last shot in her current power cell, a large violet hand knocked her across the corridor, and her misfired shot melted a considerable chunk of the ceiling.

A rather large Heraani soldier had backhanded her with all of his might. Despite her psionic power, the large Heraan far outclassed her in physical strength. She struggled to get back up, surely fighting a concussion, and was promptly slammed into the ground as the large hand came down again.

As Raszagal laid beaten on the floor of the ravaged corridor, the Heraan just stood over her, and she could feel his hateful eyes boring into her back. The massive alien reached his three-digit hand and grasped her by the neck, lifting her to eye level.

The brilliant blue eyes of the alien stared straight into her own. "You are pathetic," it spoke directly into her thoughts. "You managed to defeat our commander, which says nothing about you, but volumes about him. I must thank you for proving his incompetence. I hope you've made your peace, Gallifreyan, because your afterlife beckons."

That arrogant statement, combines with the pain of the Heraan's tightening hand around her neck, proved to be her final incentive. She directed all of her rage into a psionic attack, subtle to the outside observer, but torrential in it's true nature. She weaved her way into the weaker mind of the alien, and lashed out in all directions.

The Heraan became aware of this, and unable to defend, squeezed harder, hoping to kill her first. His efforts were in vain, however, as deep purple blood began to make it's way through his violet skin. The brilliant glow of his eyes began to dim, and his grip began to loosen. Suddenly, Raszagal fell from his grip, and crumpled to the ground. The large, armored body of the Heraani soldier followed suit, the weight of his armor causing a slight dent in the wall against which he fell.

"There were only two killed; An Ensign Turner due to a shot straight at his head, and Private Hanson due to a direct blow to his chest. Ten are injured, but only one is life threatening. That would be Lieutenant Davis, she has internal bleeding. The rest are fine;They only have minor bumps and bruises. I suggest we get Ms. Davis to a medical station immediately. The rest, minus Turner and Hanson of course, should be perfectly fine in taking care of themselves. As for Turner and Hanson, we can transport their bodies back, and take care of them accordingly.

Raszagal parked the Puma momentarily, and then keyed a short command into the multi-function display between the two front seats, and it showed a top-down scan of the surrounding area.

< Research Facility, Underground >

Dolan frantically input commands in the console, with somewhat miraculous accuracy, all things considered.  The doors into the room containing the Omega was now visibly melting and collapsing.  Most of the Omega molecules were destroyed fortunately, but at his current rate, Dolan knew in all likeliness all of them would not be destroyed before the doors finally gave way.  The few marines that were not critically injured or tending to the wounded gathered by the doors, preparing to fire once the doors collapsed, in a desperate bid to give Dolan more time.

The doors then exploded and phaser fire went both ways through the molten opening.  Dolan entered commands ever so much faster, desperation giving him a little more speed.  The Heraan charged into the room.  The marines closest to the door were rapidly dispatched.  As the Heraan made rapid progress, Dolan swung his phaser rifle off his back and began firing.  One Heraan fell, but the others came faster than before.

Suddenly, shimmers appeared throughout the room that Dolan was in and reptilian humanoids wearing unusual looking uniforms materialized.  What struck Dolan the most about them was that they faintly resembled Klingons, especially with their cranial ridges.  The new arrivals opened fire on the Heraan, who suddenly seemed to grow fearful and returned fire.  However, the reptilians seemed to have some sort of armor or shielding, as they absorbed the fire with no apparent damage.  They quickly destroyed the Heraani force and several of them left the room.

Dolan was slightly shocked and awed at the same time.  He hoped the reptilians were friendly and that the few who left the room were going after the remaining Heraan.  He then quickly put all other thoughts aside and turned back to the console.  However, he was stopped by one of the reptilians nearby.

"What do you think you are doing?" asked the reptilian in a grand voice that seemed somehow musical also.

"I am going to finish destroying these molecules," answered Dolan, starting to worry that the reptilians might not be completely friendly.

"So are we," replied the reptilian, to Dolan's immense relief.  He continued, "Our most important protocol mandate the destruction of these specific molecules...our methods are also far more effective and safe."

As the reptilian finished his sentence, another reptilian had stepped next to the containment field and held up a strange looking instrument.  He pressed a few buttons and Dolan watched amazed as all of the Omega molecules pulled apart instantaneously and became a number protons, neutrons and electrons.  They then reformed into water molecules.

The reptilian then said, "Our mission is complete.  We must now go."

"But I have so many questions!  Who are you?  Where are you from?  How-"

"Our second most important protocol is to not contact other civilizations that have not yet achieved intergalactic travel on a large scale.  The molecule destruction protocol is the only one that allows for this second one to be breached.  However, the Heraan are we have previously encountered and are hostile to us.  Attacking them first is bending the rules to the limit though.  We will now be leaving."  The reptilian finished his last sentence with a finality that ended the conversation.  All of the reptilians were then covered with the same shimmers that brought them into the facility and they disappeared.

Dolan breathed a sigh of disappointment.  He then gathered his fallen equipment and swung his phaser rifle over his back again.  He helped the marines tend to the wounds and had everyone move out as soon as everyone was ready.  The critically injured were slowly carried to the few Pumas and Pelicans that were still standing.  Everyone was piled in and the vehicles moved rapidly to the location of the Lothlorien crash site.

The marines accompanying Dolan quickly penetrated the research complex's defenses with relative ease...as if they hadn't been check up on in years.  Surprisingly, the facility seemed abandoned.  Dolan quickly looked through the lab's logs to see if he could figure out how to get the Omega out of the facility.  He noticed that the Omega was being created to power the planet's defense systems.  Unfortunately, at this point the planet's defenses were useless as the many Heraani fighters had destroyed a majority of them.

Dolan continued to scan the logs, searching for a way to safely remove it and/or destroy it without killing everyone in the process.  With the ship out of contact, he had practically no way of knowing how to dispose of the particle.

Dolan distantly heard one of the marine officers report that Heraani ground forces were closing in, with fighters supporting them.  Dolan hoped the Heraan wouldn't want to destroy the Omega and would hold off their fire on the complex.  Another officer had a perimeter around the research complex set up, to prepare for the arrival of the Heraani forces.

"What happened to Starfleet?" Raszagal said, laughing. "You people used to have a sense of humor. I guess a lot changes in ninety years."

Raszagal gave herself a slight telekinetic boost to get moving across the engine chamber, and grasped the bulkhead on the other side of the room. "Yeah," she said, looking over the gravitic drive coil, "these are pretty tricky charges. We've basically got a 50/50 decision to make. Hack the computer, or defuse the bomb."

"Lets go, Raszagal." was all HK47 said as he sped up and quickly caught up with Nathan.  He had activated his armblades, they shot out from his elbow's and the top of his hands on both Forearms.  He was now ready for heraan blood.  His scanners picked up over 400 heraan soldiers heading towards the Lothlorien.

"Oh joy the night will be filled with the blood of Heraani life." HK said seeming actually pleased for the taste of battle.

"Lieutenant Colonel, with all due respect to this battalion, twenty men is not enough. I've fought the Heraan in countless engagements, and if there's one thing I've learned from them, it's that you never underestimate them. They have a regiment ten dozen strong coming this way, we need every man here and we need them in prime position."

She stepped a bit closer. "Colonel, I know a fair amount of human history. Do you know of the Battle of Thermopylae? A small Greek contingent stood against the vast Persian armadas for days, thanks to their tactics and determination. This is the same situation, sir. They are attacking us. We have the Lothlorien, which, even in her current condition, still makes a worthy fortress. We need everyone, Navy and Marine, on this ship, phasers drawn."

"Press the attack!" the Heraani field commander screamed at the top of his telepathic "lungs". "The human dogs mush not gain control of the Holy Particle!"

The Heraani commander ignited his energy gauntlets, and found his target, a pair of human snipers behind a concealed embankment. Swiftly, he ran toward them, using his psionic speed to dodge in and amongst the phaser and plasma fire with ease, and leaped upon the two humans, plunging his energy blades into their chests, and watching the life drain from their eyes.

"Yeah, I know.  Wouldnt you be if you were fighting constantly putting up with people who think they know everything and then staying up for several days without sleep?" Balkazar asked his symbiote telepathically.

"Hmmmm, I suppose your right.  Whats your deal with those who arent marines?" the voice asked telepathically.

"Nothing, Well.....Everything I suppose.  I served in starfleet on board the USS Skytoucher before it was destroyed in a battle with the Nij'gat.  I seen how many Starfleet officers treat each other and I dont agree with it.  So I joined the marines and here theirs atleast some degree of respect and if you dont salute many people will hit you.  Well, I cant hit starfleet officers for not saluting.  That is the problem but I cant do much, im just the grunt." Balkazar told his symbiote telepathically.

"I see, well atleast you have me for council I suppose.  However, I think you should atleast give them a chance.  That Voyager is bright enough, dont you think?" the voice asked telepathically.

"Hmmmm, yeah, he is bright enough but with brains comes a great responsibility in using his Intelligence wisely.  If he builds some kind of Dooms day weapon to wipe out the galaxies then I will have to kill him." Balkazar told his symbiote telepathically half joking/half serious.

"Hmmmm, I see your point.  Rest now and I will do the same." the symbiote said before going quiet.

Dolan was prepared to beam off to the planet surface and waited patiently, though admittedly worriedly, since if the ship crashed, even if the Omega was destroyed, the survivors would essentially be stranded, unless the ship could be brought into a workable condition or the fleet sent a starship after them.  He shook that thought off and continued to wait for the beaming.

"Sir. Perimeter secure." reported a Staff Sergeant under John. "Hostiles are neutralised." he said, smirking, slowing down the final word.

"Don't get too cocky, Sergeant. Don't forget we still need to make sure that the Omega Molecule is destroyed and get off this planet." John reprimanded. He reached up with his left hand - his rifle still in his right, scope smashed clean off - and wiped blood from a cut above his eye.

"Yessir. Sorry Sir." the Sergeant said, straightening his pose.

John looked around as he heard the Colonel mention the ship. He looked it over, and it looked almost untouched by the battle that had been raged through the night. "Sir!" he suddenly called out, an idea coming into his head.

"The Heraan. There were commanders in the battle, there must be some with some of their cloaking armour. We might be able to salvage some of the units, fit them to some of our marines."

<Balkazar and his half of the Battalion were seen in the distance as 20 or so Puma's came racing out of the trees and the marines got out and dispersed where they could, Fire teams were divided up and were put into the fortifications that HK47 was so kind as to make earlier.  Then the Pelicans came in with the rest of the marines and gear was being dropped off.  Marines pulled both heavy equipment and light equipment out of the puma's.  Several Marines were assisting the field medics with their gear and helped them into the wreckage of the Lothlorien to set up a medical triage area for the impending battle that will be coming soon.  Then they broke up and started to guard and trap every entrance forcing the Heraan to come only one way.  In a short time the rather deserted crash site was literally turned into a make shift fortress and marines were taking up positions all around making sure the heraan soldiers didnt get threw without being seen or heard>

"Sir, the area is secured the best we can make it." a private said coming up and reported to the Col.

Raszagal noticed the disturbance caused by the blood-soaked droid, and took her opportunity. She let fly a burst of pure psionic energy, something she had been unable to do in far too long. The energy pulse hit one of the Heraan and slammed him to the wall, the bruised body falling to the ground to reveal purple blood on the wall.

The Gallifreyan then jumped toward another of the Heraan, and swiped at him with the energy blade, but the alien caught her arm and resisted. They struggled for a moment, before Raszagal tripped the Heraan with her foot and brought the tip of the blade across the alien's chest, causing a neat but fatal gash in his chest cavity, that glowed with a cauterized edge from the heat of the weapon.

The command chamber now empty, Raszagal deactivated her blade and stepped up to the droid. "You need to control your bloodlust, or you're bound to get us killed! The next time you burst in like that, I'll have you shipped back to Traquel Alpha in parts!"

Dolan had a sudden inspiration as he waited for Balkazar's reply.  He took out a PADD he had on him and began calculating if his phaser bank could be placed in orbit around the Heraani ship, assuming the marines would be able to gain control and it would be able to get off the ground.  He believed that, due to the Heraani vessel's inoperable weapons, it might be possible to substitute them by having one of his prototypes placed in orbit around it.

~Engines could be added later if needed,~ Dolan thought to himself, ~If this works, the Federation would have a blueprint for orbital defenses, and if engines were added, automated defense "droids", for a lack of a better word.~

When his calculations were finished, Dolan realized the ship was too small, and that the prototype would have to be attached to the outer hull of the ship to be of any use as a defensive measure.  However, he kept the idea in mind, as it might allow for orbital defenses for Avalon Station, if they ever got back.

(OFF: I know this is a ways back, but "split chins"? The Heraan only have one chin, and no mouth. Think of the Protoss from StarCraft, that's the look of a Heraani soldier. Also, remember that the proper name for the enemy race is "Heraan", not "Heraani". Only add the "i" when you are describing a specific object of or belonging to the Heraan, such as "the Heraani carrier". Otherwise, the race is called "the Heraan". It's like saying "welcome to the United States of American". Anyway, my rant's done.)

Dolan rolled his eyes at Dar'Nas's apparant feeling of superiority.

~Let the guy have his fun~ thought Dolan.  He added his subroutines before reloading Dar'Nas's translation matrix.  He then ran his deactivation program through the computer, to confirm that it was safe.  Once that was done, he started using the translation matrix and was relieved when it worked.  However, he wasn't especially excited about the sudden rapid explosions throughout the ship.

Dolan coughed as the dust and smoke rose.  Small fires appeared thoughout engineering.  He looked through the ship's logs before yelling out, "It seems the ship shut down all of the systems so it could overload the EPS conduits without us knowing about it!  We managed to get artificial gravity and life support back before they blew though, so we have a little time!"  He suffered another coughing fit before managing to grab a fire extinguisher and putting a few nearby fires out.  Fortunately for the quick reaction of the marines nearby, all the fires were out within a few minutes.

Throwing her hair up as loosely as she could get away with, she had been on her way to the bridge herself when it had been cleared of the lower ranks, including her own. She couldn't help but sigh at this - her rank hardly served her well at such times, and she knew it. ..She'd have to work on that. Instead she made her way down to engineering to see what she could find out about the situation. If anyone else knew, the people there would.

As unfortunate as it was, the chaos made it difficult to find out much of anything. The engines were down, and the bridge was cleared; this was something big. She had her suspicions. This was the one of the things she hated whenever she found herself in a new position; it would take time to build trusts and make friends in high (or low, if the situation so required) places. In fact, she had barely seen the Commanding Officer yet at all. In some cases being invisible is exactly what's required, but this was not one of those times.

After looking over the shoulders of a few engineers, word of a senior staff briefing made its way to her. Smirking at the ways her rank did work in her favour, she headed back towards the bridge at a reasonable pace.

Nodding slightly to the bridge officer with a smile, she confidently walked into the briefing room. "I beg your pardon, Sirs," she said in a hushed voice, "but if there's something going on here.." she paused for a moment, purposely, "I think I should be aware of it. It's impossible for me to do my job blindly. The crew is already nervous, to put it bluntly, and I can't help them if I don't know what we're dealing with. So if you'd be so kind," she smiled, "I'd like to sit in on this one."

Raszagal affixed the Heraani energy bracer to her arm and hoisted her rifle. The team entered the Heraani scoutship and split into two distinct groups. Raszagal kept low, her rifle at the ready, as they made their way through the glossy-walled corridors of the ship. An occasional Heraan happened to stumble across their party, but were quickly silenced.

Raszagal and her team arrived at the command chamber on the ship, and the young Gallifreyan saw a Heraani lieutenant standing at the command platform. Warships of the Heraani armada had no command seats, and very few chairs of any sort. With a silent wave for her men to hold back, Raszagal set her rifle to the deck, retrieved her Khaydarin shard from her pocket, and keyed the door to open. There were various Heraan working at their stations, and Raszagal used the power of the shard to mask her presence, not physically, but in the minds of the aliens.

One Heraan began to walk toward her, and Raszagal froze. The tall alien began to walk past her, and tripped over her foot, stumbling a bit. The Gallifreyan focused as much energy as possible into the shard, hoping to maintain her anonymity. The alien turned, looked directly at her foot...

...and shrugged it off, thinking he must have tripped over a loose bit of plating on the deck. Raszagal breathed a sigh of relief, and inched closer to the lieutenant. She came as close as she could, knowing any closer would alert the officer's psionic senses to her presence. She immediately refocused her energy from stealth to sheer power, and leaped at the Heraan, lighting her bracer in mid-air. The lieutenant turned just in time to see the swirling, green energy blade pierce his chest, and to realize the irony of his death by a Heraani weapon.

At this point, her cover was blown, and she faced several armed aliens, all training their plasma rifles at her head.

It was about the size of two shuttles stacked on one another and as wide as two of next to each other the long way. As they approached he also thought he had just scene a bend in the light of the flash light of the man taking point. It was only for a split second and he thought nothing about it. As they got to the door He searched for a control panel as to open it. He walked from one side to the other and found on the wall a panel. It was glowing red as to indicate it as being sealed. He had one of his technicians come up with all his fancy gear and work on it to open it. The stood there about ten minutes then all of the sudden from behind them a pressance was felt they looked and nothing was there. Powell held up a light down the corridor and the light was bent so bad it look like a spool of thread had got caught in some kind of engine. After that the wrist blades of the Heeran light up in a quick flash and their cloaks dropped and they charged.*

"Alert cover your selves from the rear!"

*Powell shouted to get the attention of the unsuspecting marines and as they turned one by one they took a stance, took aim, and unleashed their deadly precics marine accuracy upon the charging Heeran.*

A passing ensign noticed Dolan's body collapsed on the floor of the cargo bay.  He rushed over and tapped his combadge.

=/\=  Ensign Turner to Avalon Station =/\=

Lieutenant Dolan has been found unconsious on the Swift Retribution.  Lock on to his combadge and transfer him to Sickbay ASAP.

=/\= Ensign Turner out =/\=

Dolan was immediately beamed to Avalon Station's Sickbay.

(OFF: Nice, B. I couldn't help but laugh. By the way, Dolan, nice twist.)

"I can't say that I do. Stand back."

Raszagal activated the Heraani bracer she was wearing, and stabbed the blade into the forcefield. It flickered for a moment, but so did the weapon, and unfortunately, the bracer gave out first, and the field returned to full strength.

"Damn," she cursed, tossing the overloaded weapon to the deck. "Um, you might want to lay down. This could get a little ugly."

As soon as Dolan was on the deck, Raszagal took out her Khaydarin shard and concentrated. She pressed outward with every bit of her ability, and the forcefield dimmed slightly, and flickered again for a moment. She then pulled back, and gave the forcefield one final jolt. Her psionic pressure won out, and the forcefield overloaded and shut down. She ducked out of the way just as the fried emitter fell to the deck.

"I doubt I can do that again," she said, physically drained. "We'll have to get everyone else out the old-fashioned way."

"Remember those escape pods I detected ? that was from the crew, so how would they secure a crash site without personel ?.  My guess is that the Captain ordered all personel except for command staff to remain behind.  Our job was to scout and get to the crash site before the main marine battalion does to ensure its relatively safe.  How strange that a machine would know more about our purpose then the private that OBVIOUSLY out ranks me."

(OFF: Considering the Puma has it's own sensor array and comm system, I'll assume you sent that comm channel to the truck itself. Also, good luck with those Heraan, you might as well be up against a Jedi. Only the strongest Heraan carry energy blades, the average soldier just carries a plasma rifle.)

Raszagal pulled the Puma up to the edge of the hull of the Lothlorien, and listened in to her radio. "We've just arrived at the ship, Colonel. We've detected the Heraani brigade, they're about fifteen minutes out."

The young Gallifreyan climbed out of the Puma, and walked up to the ship. Eerily, she ran her hands over the very edge of the battered hull, before spotting an access panel that had luckily not been buried or destroyed. Raszagal stepped up to the panel, HK47 and the Lieutenant close behind, and she pulled the panel off, taking a step into the ship.

*Richard Walked back torwards the Captian Shakeing his Head at the Young Ensign and Richard Knowing Full Well how much an Starship Can Take*

This is my Idea Sir, becuse Distroying the Ship without Just Cause is Madness. First we Place the Proxmitey Mines  In the Only Entrences to the Ship then we get the Plasma Charges just inside an Airlock connected to an Trip Wire. Which will cause Some Dammage to the Ship but it will Cause Heavy Losses to any Attack.

*Richard Looked around the Bridge looking at the Flickering Stations*

Also, Sir an Idea that has Come to Mind as the Primary Self Destruct War Head is Operational we will have Little Need for the Spare so we use it as an Power Source we could Try to Harnest the Power of the Warhead Using the Poratable Generator as I throrize that we can Power the Sheilds to 50% then with 2% Power we can take what weapon Systems from the Surviving Shuttles and have one Phaser Array at 4% power that not much but still it will be Somthing and I will need the Help the the Ops Officer.

Dolan hoped Raszagal was alright as he moved to one of the consoles.  He suddenly recalled a standard password finder from his Academy days and found it in a PADD he happened to have with him.  He uploaded it to the console but the computer apparantly didn't like his prodding as the voice came back.

=@= Hostile attempts to breach systems detected.  Upgrading Clearance levels to Level 5 and above. =@=

Dolan sighed in aggravation and disguised the program to seem Heraan in origin, so the computer wouldn't reject it so quickly.  When he ran the program through again, the password was found and recorded.  Dolan entered the password and the doors to engineering opened.  Dolan breathed a sigh of relief.

"So Raszagal, what do you think we should do now?" asked Dolan, now confused about what to do.

Richards had kept out of the bulk of the action mostly during the battle on the planet, working on trying to do something with the Lothlorien's systems.

Now that they were on the Heraani ship, however, he had begun work on locking out as many files as he could find on the Heraan database on behalf of Starfleet Intelligence. He was good at his job, very good, and made sure that there was no trace of him accessing the systems. As far as any of the other crew were concerned, the files had been locked by the Heraan. There were a few files, however, that managed to escape this, as the database was too large to lock everything down covertly and quickly.

"Yes, they attach charges to the gravitic drive, which causes an overload that implodes the entire vessel. Basically, we'll all get compacted into a tiny, super-dense ball of matter, before being shattered and spread across the system."

Raszagal kicks off of the wall and over to a console. The console was inactive, and so she took a power cell and computer isolator and attached them to the Heraani console. Once the power cell was activated, the console lit up again. The isolator was then activated, which removed the console from the main computer core, and connected it to the micro-computer inside the device. An LCARS display appeared on the console, and allowed isolated access to the Heraani computer core.

She frowned. "If there's anything I can do to help Captain, Admiral, please let me know. In the meantime, I'll keep an eye on the crew. Surely they've already noticed that something odd is happening, and not knowing would be enough to make anyone a bit edgy, especially when there's an Admiral in our midst."

Relaxing her features now, she turned to Admiral Yates and smiled. "Speaking of which, it's lovely to finally meet you in person, Sir.

She couldn't help but show her surprise. Her eyes widened with it, and her friendly features faded. This is one thing she didn't expect, though.. as she thought about it now, it made perfect sense. A lot of things made perfect sense, in fact. She bit her lower lip slightly, before regaining her composure.

"My father was an agent? I.. I had always suspected, you understand, but no one could ever confirm it for me. It's the nature of the job, I realize.. but even so, I thank you for that."

It took her a moment longer to slip back into her comfort zone. She was hardly used to displaying her emotions so openly in front of someone such as Rajnus. Even with her background in psychology behind her, she couldn't help but feel somewhat annoyed at her lack of self control in that moment. If she had to choose one thing to hate, lack of control would certainly be it.

"Blowing your cover would end very badly for me, Director. Or Captain, I guess I should say. Those self-centered reasons alone would be more than enough to discourage me from doing so. Truly I'd have nothing to gain from it, and naturally, I don't wish to blow my own cover either. I am at your service. If there isn't anything else, Captain, I'm sure you have much to attend to and I've taken up plenty of your time.."

Her relaxed smile returned once more.

((Im going to speed things up since theirs no one except for myself who is directing the fight))

<The Heraan soldiers continued to push forward as their commander and officers started to fall dead.  Balkazar had ordered the marines to push onward slaughtering the Heraan as they went.  They were soon on the outskirts of the heraan landing zone and started to blanket the area with mortar fire.  As the night drew on, the Heraan tried to regroup but werent able too very effectively due to the constant barrage of Mortar fire on their encampment, the constant fire kept up all night with each mortar team being replaced by fresh and rested marines to take their places.  As the day came on the next morning the sun started to rise from behind the mountains that laid on the horizon.  As the light from the sun casted its gaze on the ruined encampment their was lil movement, since the Heraan were either dead or dieing on the battlefield.  The ship that the Heraan came in on was never harmed aside from the mortars that were fired at the entrance of the ship to keep the Heraan away from going for cover.  As well as small craters were everywhere.  If their was anymore movement the snipers hid nearby and would take them out>

"Well, that was interesting." Balkazar said looking down on the encampment.  "We need to take that ship but their may be Heraan inside.  We could send in the armored battle suit marines first.  But with their weapons they would probly do more harm then good." Balkazar added.

Quinn let out a cough and opened his eyes. He luckily was still lying down when the ship hit the ground so he wasn't thrown around as much. He pushed a fallen panal off him and grunted loudly as he tried to get up. Looks like the Admiral did a pretty decent job of patching him up.

He heard the captain and was tempted to reply 'Alive', but instead he reached up and used his console as a support as he got to his feet.

Richerd only nodded his head and had left right as the Admiral was starting to brief the rest of the captains and above, he had already been briefed about it upon reaching Captain in Starfleet before coming back to the Marines.

He entered the mess hall, smiled and launched into a small pep talk.

"ALL hands prepare for battle stations, I have decided to hold a little drill, So, MOVE, MOVE, MOVE.... I want you to act like this is the real thing, so no falling back and clucking like a bunch of hens and chickens... and IF I find you doing that, You will be clean up the Mess Hall for a week with only a Mop and bucket."

The Marines that were under Richerd jumped and followed suite, he knew that Moore most likely would be doing the same at the other Mess hall and sleeping quarters.

Balkazar berrated the Lt.

"Speaking of which, you will leave what was said out of your logs.  Thats an order, and since im the only ranking officer here that isnt unconscious or out of commission you have to follow it.  Understood?" Balkazar glared at them.

"Now onto business, Give me something we can do to get that ship under our control.  That doesnt involve wasting marine life!"

She laughed. "I probably know more than you'd think, but there's always room for more knowledge and advancement. I know that not everything is quite as it seems, Captain. I know that you wouldn't be asking so many questions about my file if you were exactly what you appear to be, and you certainly wouldn't be making allegations surrounding my father's file.

"Very good, Dar'Nas.  I need you to get to work on trying to clear up the Sensor array to pick out specific targets, also I want to know who and what they are on sensors so we dont have friendly fire should a firefight break out." Simon ordered as well.

Aariya was just about to respond when Simon's combadge chimmed. Dolan.

She finished up her apple cider while she waited, taking a few final sips before it was quiet again.

"Thank you, Captain. My eyes and ears are always open. I'll see if I can't track down Mr. Richards and send him in.."

With that, she nodded once more and walked back out onto the bridge. "Mr. Richards?" she said quietly, walking up to the man. "The Captain would like to see you in his Ready Room."

Tom calmly tapped in commands on his console, unfased by the destruction of the ship around him. He made the decision that it was more important that they got as close to the surface as possible before the ship broke up than them surviving any heraani attacks, and so diverted all power from rear shields, the now empty marine deck, and all non-essential or now-unusable systems to the front shields, managing to raise them by 13.43%

"Power conduits are rupturing all throughout the ship. The EMH is offline. Captain; I recommend the order to be given for non-essential crews to abandon ship via the escape pods. The ship is coming apart and we may start losing people soon too."

As he spoke, his console lost all contact with the computer systems in the port nacelle, meaning it had either had it's systems disconnected from the rest of the ship somehow, or the nacelle was gone completely.

Richerd was not pleased they had fallen back two times and where now holed up in the remains of the large sensor dish area of the once proud star ship, all of them were using whatever cover, and it just seemed to him that they were not having any luck at the moment trying to push back, they had lost two men from his brigade and one from the survivors of the starship, other then that they all have been staying low and trying to pick off any of the Heraan that might get too reckless they had already taken down six, mainly with using the weapons on top of the pelicans but right now it was not looking good, the weapon platforms had been knocked out or offline, and some of the tracks had been damaged to prevent movement, so they were trying their hardest to fight at the bow of the ship.

He smiled as one more of the opponiant fell to the ground, making the total seven now, he just hoped that the private he sent through the ship to get supplies from the larger front would get back soon, otherwise the package would not do any good, he just wished he had kept a mortar team with him in the first place.

Dolan scanned the system throughly before saying, "There is an asteroid belt on the outer part of the star system.  We might be able to take refuge behind some of the larger asteroids."

The ship continued to shake violently as the ship came under heavy fire from more Heraani fighters that were being deployed.  At Dolan's last count, there were 15 and the numbers were beginning to increase rapidly.  Another 3 were deployed as Dolan lowered the amount of power going to sensors slightly, so more power could go to weapons.

Dolan was startled at Brown's voice, not noticing him on the Bridge.  He made the suggested adjustments and saw the minefield extended for about a billion kilometers.  He had tactical make the required calculations on how many mines could be destroyed and how many photon torpedoes were needed.  Once ship repairs were complete, the torpedoes were fired and a path was cleared.  The ship moved forward, careful to avoid any other mines.  As they finally pulled clear of the minefield, another shockwave from the Omega molecules hit the ship, almost knocking it back into the minefield.  As they came to approached the system where the Omega molecules were expected to be, the warp field the ship was in destablized and the ship was forced to go on impulse only.

After leaving the briefing. Tom ran the sensor sweep as he had planned, and confirmed the computer's readings as to the location of the Omega Molecule exactly. At least they had put some decent sensor systems in the Lothlorien.

As the ship shook, Tom quietly regained his posture, redirecting power to ensure the efficiency of the ship's systems. Dolan seemed to work efficiently, and saw him order the DC teams to the damaged areas. A competent crew, as well as systems, then.

"Mr. Richards?" Aariya said quietly, walking up to the man. "The Captain would like to see you in his Ready Room."

"Aye." was all Tom said, as he nodded and moved away, allowing the relief officer to take his post.

"Your assistance is required in...well, engineering, I'm guessing this room is."

Raszagal arrived rather quickly and started helping Dolan with translating Heraan.  They began with a type of table of contents, which revealed some interesting information, including a device onboard that could track most of the Heraani capital ships in real time using, from what Dolan could tell, a network of small relays throughout the quadrant.  Unfortunately, it had massive power requirements, which explained why it would be in storage.  Titles mentioning training scenarios, war simulations, battle strategies and plans, and other tactical information was worth notice also.

However, after taking some time with the first translations and with hundreds of files to decode, Dolan soon said to Raszagal, "Perhaps a translating program would be more efficient than manual translation.  Do you have any experience with creating such a program?"

"Well, it's Heraan for one." He said, jokingly. More seriously, he said; "It's database has a huge amount of information. Terrabyte after Terrabyte of the stuff. Some of the crew may have accessed parts of it before I could lock it all. There's information on species in the galaxy older than humans, Sir. My guess is the Heraan have been around a lot longer than I thought, or they have been given some of the knowledge of the Najigat."

"This ship doesn't have any special purpose other than to try and wipe the annoyance called the Federation off the face of the Galaxy. That would lead to suggest that this is the more standard end of their knowledge, and that larger facilities dedicated to information would have more. That's just a guess though."

Dolan glanced questioningly at Sayuri, who seemed to know more than she was letting on, before turning to Rajnus.

"I agree with Lt. Sayuri, it resembles the ancient Greek letter Omega and is used in a variety of ways, though mainly for mathmatical and scientific purposes.  I don't really see how it concerns the ship though."

Post by: Thomas Richards on November 27, 2007, 07:58:51 PM
Tom simply nodded at the Director, as the klaxons began wailing a red alert. As the Captain moved out of his ready room onto the Bridge, Tom silently moved towards the operations console, and began accessing functions. His station was secluded enough so that non of the other bridge officers could see what he was doing without standing next to him.

He began running a few programs he developed in his early years. They were a few of the programs he used whenever he hacked a system, though he never used the same on constantly, else a block would be developed for it. He had about ten different programs that he alternated between with each time he hacked a system, and this time he used his Echo set.

His screen showed the addresses of each of the consoles on the entire ship, and some parameters Tom had built into his program - ways of narrowing his search. He first selected consoles only on the bridge. He then cross-referenced which consoles were designated for each department, and then who was logged onto them, quickly finding the one he wanted. Console #452345-009, User: Dolan, William, Department: Science.

He soon accessed the system without any notifications appearing on any screen, anywhere, and without even any logs in the computer cores. He set his program to copy every shred of data that passed through the Lieutenant's terminal, and display it on a small section in the bottom-left of his own screen, and send copies to three separate storage locations in his quarters, and again to another data store he had hidden in an area of the ship previously. Sure, he might be paranoid, but it might save his life one day.

Double-checking that the computer cores had no evidence of his hack, he began running his scans on the Heraani vessels.

"Operations; ready." he stated, in reply to the Captain's call for reports. He began analysing the readings he was getting from the various vessels, and thought he would comment on Lieutenant Brown's idea.

"We can modulate the phasers to fire two bursts, one timed precisely after the other, and at different power ratings. The first can be programmed to overload their shields, and the second to disable and/or destroy any part of the ship in our line of fire. The ships can either be destroyed, or disabled ready for capture."

He then transferred the calibration data to the Tactical Console, ready for the tactical officer to enter in if the Captain took up on his suggestion. His hack tool confirmed they arrived at the console.

"As for the larger vessel, it seems to have multiple shield generators. If one is overloaded, then it will only leave us a minute gap, and precision manoeuvring would be needed to be able to his a critical point in the vessel through the points where the shields would have a gap. If, however, we overload two generators simultaneously, then a larger gap would be created, and a better shot would be opened."

She knew full well that he was prodding her for a reaction, and she had absolutely no intention of giving him one. "In some ways we're very much a like," she said softly, after a moment "and in others, not so much. We both always knew how to get a job done, and neither of us are very good at playing by the rules.

OOC: Where has everyone gone?

Dolan turned to the wreck of the Lothlorien.

He said to Balkazar, "Pity...it was such a wonderful ship...you know, I overheard some of the crew saying something about a Titan-class ship most likely replacing the Lothlorien as Expansion Fleet's marine transport.  They reasoned that the fleet needs a ship that could carry a couple battlalions of marines without breaking a sweat, unlike the Lothlorien, which, according to its specs, could only carry half a battalion if pushed."

Dolan glanced at Balkazar to gauge his reaction before continuing, "Also overheard something about a refit needed for Avalon Station soon and it being overdue for one.  From what I recall, the station couldn't fire quantum torpedoes and has the old type XII phaser banks, which were made obsolete by the type XIII I heard were recently created by Starfleet."

A marine - Lieutenant Colonel, Dolan believed - approached Dolan and Balkazar and reported, "The Heraan ship - Swift Retribution I believe it is called - has been cleared of Heraan presense and is taking on all marine and Starfleet personnel now.  Everyone still in the Lothlorien is being evacuated, along with everyone else on the planet.  Orders from Admiral Yates, before he fell unconscious again.  Follow me."  He beckoned and Dolan and Balkazar followed him to the Swift Retribution.

As the group headed to the ship, the marine spoke again, "I believe, as part of the Prime Directive, we will have to destroy or take the remains of the Lothlorien with us.  Am I not correct, Colonel?"

Balkazar of this latest development, and only him.  We are going to Red alert.  Your all dismissed.  Aariya I wish to see you in my ready room."

"The rest of the Battalion are close behind." HK said.  "Im going to recon the area and see what we can do about defense meatbags." HK said as he turned and moved out of the ship to look around.

<HK had left the ship and did a quick recon of the area.  He found a few places that could be used for firing teams, but quickly made additional places for cover.  HK blasted several fox holes in strategic places around the ship and started to camoflage them while at the same time allowing the marines to fire out of them with lil difficulties.  Then he blasted several trees down in hopes they slowed down the heraan soldiers>

"Yes Sir." Major Richerd said with a bark like tone of the affirmative. "Private... get the men to the lockers and get their armor on..."

The Private only hesitated for half a second before running out at a jog to the Barracks and to follow through the order.

He then himself went to the lockers and suited up in his own armor... in three minutes the Cargo Bay now had twenty more Marines then it had before.

"Okay, you ten with the Col. The Rest of you... you are with the General... now move and get ready for planet fall when it comes."

He then moved to talk to Balkazar. "So... where am I going to be?" Guard duty or Retrieval?" He had ten of his own trained men waiting at one of the transporter rooms waiting for the beam out.

"Also... how are we going to beam out if we need shields..." The ship shook but Richerd keep his ground "Since we would be dropping shields to beam out."

((Alright, post edited...just one question, how are we expected to survive without something to get rid of the Heraani?  Right now we're pretty much assured to die.  Or is some form of a deus ex machina going to save us all?))

Dolan hoped everyone on this mission would survive, especially with so many Heraani fighters after them.  The marines were only about half an hour from the research complex where Dolan believed the Omega was.  However, the chance of them getting there without major casualties were rapidly decreasing as a dozen more fighters started firing on the marines.  He was unsure how they were going to destroy the Omega at this point since the Lothlorien was now down with the Captain and Admiral out of contact and the General busy trying to keep all of his marines alive.  As the marines closed in on the research facility, Dolan noticed that it seemed to resemble a power plant and wondered if the Omega was being created as a power source for something.

((OOC: Where has everyone gone?  And a note to anyone reading this:  Dolan is in a coma like state and is revisiting artificially surpressed memories.))

Dolan noticed his past self had woken up when the images came back again.  He suddenly realized he was in a UEF outpost on Scorpii 18 and that he was in a briefing room.  He was surprised at this revelation and had no clue where this information came from and considered that it really might be his surpressed memories.  Words began to filter through.

"The Aeon have launched an offensive on the planet.  They have esablished footholds on the southern subcontinent and the island chain near there."  A screen appeared in mid-air in the center of the table with a map indicating where the Aeon were.  "We have requested reinforcements, but it seems the UEF can't spare any people, though they managed to send a company of the Direwolf Regiment, with Colonel Clarke coming personally to help defeat the Aeon.  Major Dolan is head of this company, which is called..."

Dolan heard his voice, though it was much rougher, replied, "We're the Wolverine Company, Brigader Pershing."

The man that was speaking cleared his throat and said with unveiled disdain, "The Wolverine Company then.  Now, to organize the defensive perimeter, we plan on deploying Major Dolan's company along with one of the home platoons a couple dozen kilometers above the Aeon forces on the subcontinent to stop them from gaining more ground.  Colonel Clarke will direct this group from a base nearby.  The other ACUs will-"

Colonel Clarke, a fierce looking woman, spoke up.  "I don't see why I can't be deployed on the field beside Major Dolan.  He and his company may be Symbionts, but their loyaty programming is fully engaged.  In fact, most of the company, including the major, have upgraded forms of the loyalty programming.  Besides, the closest known Cybran base is several jumps away.  They won't have the time to defect even if they could and they wanted to."

The brigader's face remained emotionless as he answered, "I disagree.  As you well know, Dolan's company is highly experimental-"

"And highly successful," injected Clarke calmly.

"-while that might be, I believe they still might be a threat.  Who knows what kind of loopholes they could have found in their programming?  I don't care if they found a way to disguise the Symbiont's implants.  In anything, that makes them exponentially more dangerous.  In any case, you are overruled Colonel.  Unless one the ACUs on the planet is freed up, you will be directing the defense of the southern subcontinent."  With that, the arguement was ended.

The briefing continued, though Dolan noticed a couple of people in Starfleet uniforms on the edge of his vision.  He thought he was seeing things until he saw one of them press a couple of buttons and leave through a holodeck door.  Another man entered to take the place of the one who left.

Raszagal summoned her power, and made a psionic leap from the ledge with her phaser rifle in hand. She fired a volly of blasts at one soldier, cutting down his body shields and riddling him with phased energy bolts. Dropping the rifle before even landing, she drew her khala and ignited it, and proceeded to deflect several plasma bolts before cleanly slicing a pair of soldiers through the torso.

OOC: Where is everyone?

IC:
The marine vehicles arrived rather quickly at the Lothlorien crash site, with surprisingly no Heraan harassment.  Dolan jumped out of the Puma he was in to assess the situation and shielded his eyes from the noon sun to check the Lothlorien's condition.  He was dismayed to see the derelict state the Lothlorien was in.  Large chucks of debris could be seen several kilometers out and the familiar glow of the warp nacelles had dimmed down drastically.  The ship's designation was largely blacked out by fire and phaser scorches, along with much of the outer hull.  The sight briefly brought back memories of a similar incident, but Dolan quickly suppressed those thoughts.  He hoped the ship's memory core could be salvaged and was grateful he always made several copies of his prototype phaser bank design - he had a couple with him now- though it seemed the prototype that he was making in Cargo Bay 1 would most likely be damaged beyond repair.

Due to General Powell's critical condition, Dolan assumed temporary command, due to his knowledge of the situation, thanks to his tricorder.  From his tricorder readings, the Heraan had largely retreated into their ship.  He boarded the Puma and had the vehicles close in by the Lothlorien.  Upon arrival, he had the critically wounded, including General Powell, brought to the makeshift medic tent near the Lothlorien.  After he made sure everyone was taken care of, he began looking for Colonel Balkazar, since he assumed Rajnus and Admiral Yates would be with him.  After searching for about half an hour, he found the colonel on a ridge not too far up the mountain the Lothlorien rested next to, overlooking the battlefield while talking to a woman that Dolan did not recognize, but felt he should respect and perhaps even fear.  There was also a somewhat humanoid machine that seemed intimidating, especially with its blood-splattered chassis and extended blades.

Dolan cautiously approached the group and announced, "General Powell's and my team has returned.  Our mission was successful..."  Dolan hesitanted, before adding, "...with a little outside help.  We lost 5 men, another 3 are currently critically wounded, 4 if you include General Powell.  The other 2 aren't at their best, but they can manage with some medical attention.  So what are our plans to get off this planet?  And where's the Captain and the Admiral?"

Raszagal leaped just in time to intercept the Heraani commander, parrying his blades with her own khala. The force, however, knocked her to the ground, but both herself and Ensign Morganth were alive. She jumped back to her feet in one move, and stared the tall Heraan down, her khala blade burning with psionic energy.

Suddenly, the colonel came barging into the chamber, and everyone turned to look. "We think we've got a way out of this," Raszagal offered. "It's down to either two choices. We either break into the primary security subroutines and delete the self-destruct script without causing further security measure to go off, or we manually defuse the charges that control the self-destruct reaction, and then try to restore systems manually."

Dolan finished reviewing the report on the PADD and rejoined the group.

"Admiral, the ship's status report," said Dolan as he offered Admiral Yates the PADD.

After the Admiral took it, he turned to Simon and asked, "I was just wondering, are the nanites going to stay in the ship's systems permanently or will they be taken out?  I don't think they are any danger, unless  we encounter the Borg, and if the nanites continue to repair any damage the ship might accumulate, repairs might be finished sooner than normal, which would be a great benefit, especially in critical situations."

"Voyager mind explaining why a half battalion of battle hardened and experienced marines went with you to destroy omega per my orders and only 30 returned back!!!" it was obvious that Balkazar was stressed but it didnt help to see only 30 marines returned from destroying Omega.

Dolan almost groaned at the sound of the voice speaking again.

=@= Hostile takeover imminent.  Any surviving crew members abandon ship.  Powering down engines.  Emergency protocol systems shutting down.  Non-vital systems shutting down.  Vital systems shutting down.  Self-destruct will commence in 15 minutes, with a one-hour countdown. =@=

Dolan suddenly floating in mid-air as gravitational plating disengaged.  All of the doors to the corridor opened up again and the forcefields were let down.  He was deeply worried.  Vital systems included life support and from what he gleaned from the ship's specifications, it only circulated enough atmosphere for about 2 hours before reaching critical levels of carbon-dioxide and requiring the reactivation of life support.  He pondered on the situation momentarily before coming up with a solution.

"Raszagal, why don't we shut down whatever mechanism that powers the self-destruct?  We could then wipe the computer of this security program."

Dolan managed to balance himself in the zero-gravity environment.  It was somewhat akward, but it would have to do.

"So do you have any clue how the ship self-destructs?"

((Sorry, I had finals week and well... I had to make sure I was ready for the tests, my apologies))

Richerd was behind the destroyed top curve area of the once full deflector dish, some of the enemy was trying to come in through this section of the ship and so far they had been holding off, however he didn't know if they were going to get reinforcements on either sides.

He had stopped giving orders due to the nature of the fight and so far... they have been able to hold them from gaining any ground. Alas, they have not been able to push forward and they have already suffered three deaths in the front lines, one of them was one of three Marine medics that he was given... he was really worried that they would try and pick them off, so he was trying hard, he was also ignoring a burn on his shoulder but the pain killer he had been given was starting to lose it's effect, or maybe his adrenaline was flushing it out of his system faster, he was not sure but he was not going to lose any ground to the enemy.

Dolan followed the major down the ridge, who then called over several marines.  The major then headed off to carry out Balkazar's orders.  Dolan then lead the marines he had been given to the derelict ship.  They managed to find an entrance into the ship and they got in.  Dolan was distressed at the ship's condition but kept the mission in mind and they found a Jefferies tube to Cargo Bay 1.  After forcing the doors open, the group looked for the containers with the prototype's materials.  After searching for several minutes, they found them.  Dolan was surprised at the prototype's lack of damage, but didn't think too much of it.  Several marines carried the containers between them out the doors and the group made their way to the computer core.

After those doors were forced open, Dolan marvelled at the computer core's durability.  It had suffered very little damage and when Dolan checked, most of the ship's data was salvagable.  Any data that wasn't corrupted was downloaded, regardless of their origin.  The group then made their way to Dolan's quarters, to gather the rest of his materials before leaving the ship.  They cleared an area near the ship before setting to work.  A couple of the marines searched to find if there were any Starfleet personnel that could help and returned with several engineers and science officers.  Dolan gave them his spare plans and everyone got to work.  The prototype's construction went by rather quickly, with the physical component finished by mid-afternoon and most of the basic and some of the advanced programming finished by then too.  Some parts had to be adapted and others salvaged from the ship.  Dolan calculated that at the current rate of development, the prototype would be finished by dusk at the latest.

Dolan's mind continued to drift and more images came through.

"Quantum Gate activating in 5...4...3...2...1..."  Dolan saw a burst of what seemed to be blue electricity consume his body.  As he dematerialized, he distantly heard shouts.

"A Czar crashed into the fusion power plants!  He isn't going to make it through!"

However, he started to rematerialize, but not where he was before.  Through barely-open eyelids, he saw he was lying next to a strange donut-shaped device.

An unfamiliar and confused voice began talking.  "What the- Captain, a critically injured human in an unidentifiable uniform just appeared in front of the Guardian of Forever."  There was a brief pause before the voice continued.  "That's impossible, the last team came back already and everyone was accounted for.  Permission to beam him to Sickbay.  Yes, I know this would disrupt the mission, but we're Section 31, we bend the rules.  Besides, he might have some useful information.  Got it."

There was another pause and some vague commands before the voice continued.  "Transporter room 1, 2 to beam directly to Sickbay."

A blue aura surrounded Dolan's vision again but it was different this time and felt very strange.  He reappeared in a strange looking room that resembled the bunk rooms in the UEF Military Academy, except it was far less spartan and didn't have the bunks doubled up.

Dolan then blacked out once more, feeling as if pain was consuming his entire body.

"Mmph."

John tried to sit up, but was pushed down by one of the medics. His head felt like it had been split in two, and his shoulder felt worse.

"Urgh. What happened?"

~You were shot in the shoulder and hit on the head during the fighting~ said a voice in his head. ~I did my best to heal you, but I am young, and not strong enough to heal a wound of that magnitude. All I could do was save our lives. We were both made unconscious.~

"You were knocked out in the attack, Lieutenant. When I saw you go down, I was sure it was fatal, but somehow you managed to survive." the medic smiled down at him. She was quite attractive, and looked like not an ounce of dirt had touched her compared to the rest of the people in the room they were in.

~Your....pheromones are rising. Watch it..~

John smiled inwardly at his symbiont's joking caution. "Thank you" he said to both of them. "I need to report in to the Colonel. Where can I find him?"

"Colonel Balkazar is sleeping, and I suggest you do the same." she said, pushing him down onto his back again.

Dolan finished downloading the files he wanted and put them in his inner pocket before leaving his console and helping the crew fix up the ship, which was still somewhat damaged from the battle for its control.  He wondered what Starfleet was going to do with this ship.  He was sure that it held a lot of information the Federation could use to fight the Heraan.

~Maybe they could reverse engineer some of these systems.  They do seem more efficient than the Federations.~ Dolan thought for a moment.  He then began helping replace parts of the power grid that was damaged.  During his repair work, he saw Rajnus and Richards by a Heraan console.

"Captain!" Dolan said, surprised.  "I heard you were injured.  So how are you?"

Dolan was losing his patience and was now under the impression Balkazar usually just bullied his plans through.  He replied icily, "Well, you can't have both a plan that doesn't lose lives and takes place immediately.  Rash action causes loss of life.  My plan, though it may take some time, will leave the ship salvagable, if only their weapon array is targetted.  Your battalion's restlessness is a neglegable problem, I'm sure you've dealt with it before, with all of your experience.  Storming the Heraani ship with its weapons still intact is suicide.  Even -"

Dolan was then interrupted by an approaching marine, a major from the look of his pins, who said, "Colonel, the mortar just hit the ship's weapon array.  We going to have to move quickly if we are going to take advantage of this, they have deployed repair teams.  However, the Heraani ship also suffered structural damage, we don't know if the ship is stable enough to take off."

Dolan muttered a few swear words under his breath, now sure that Balkazar was going to storm the Heraani ship without another thought.

OOC: Well, I'm quite sure a couple dozen pages ago, you sent 10 marines to go with the General and 10 with you.  I'm unsure about the battalion part though.

IC:
Dolan replied, "We were ambushed by a number of Heraan with energy blades in tight corridors.  The phaser rifles the marines had didn't stand up too well under that kind of force and didn't slow down those energy blades by much.  The group of marines defending the facility from the outside were cut down by the numerous fighters and many of the Pumas were destroyed trying to take them down.  The rest, who were inside and in the corridors, had a tough time holding them off while the General and I made our way to the Omega containment room.  The General was critically wounded while sealing the doors after they were opened.   I managed to destroy a majority of the molecules before the doors were then breached by the Heraan.  The rest of us were about to be killed by the Heraan before an alien race interfered...they were reptilian and had a similar Omega Directive.  They were also hostile to the Heraan and killed off the ones in the facility and reconfigured the Omega molecules into water before leaving.  Apparently they also had a similar Prime Directive, though covering intergalactic travel instead of warp.  The remaining marines then brought the wounded to the surviving Pumas and we headed here.  And I guess you know everything else from there."

An ensign then approached and said, "The prototype phaser bank has been installed onto the outer hull, it should provide us with some protection."

Dolan nodded to the ensign, took the offered PADD, and then dismissed him before turning back to Balkazar.

Quinn stood behind Dolan, watching as he worked. For the last few hours he hadn't been doing much, mostly just wandering around with the rest of the crew and watching others work. Though originally he was the first one to suggest destroying Lothlorien but it now disturbs him that he had to see so much bloodshed and destruction on his first mission.

Luckily he stuck with Dolan right before the lockdown so he didn't get stuck in a cargo bay with a marine.

Dolan finished repairs to the power grid and started work on repairing the weapons systems.  It was relatively easy, as he had seen a similar configuration some time before he joined Starfleet.  He was glad he had that training to fall back on and remembered why he decided to not to go for engineering.

As of receant times attacks from the Heerani have slowed a bit and there has been a sort of time of peace. It did not last very long though. The Heerani have been raiding colonies and small settlements just outside of federation space. Admiral Yates has receivded a priority message from a planet called Oakly. It was a distress call for federation support. The planet is one of the most heavily developed and populated planets in the delta quadrent controled by the Federation and its a primary target for a Heerani carrier that will be arriving in 7 days.

"Hello my old friend. I hope you got my message?"

Powell: "Of course, I have deployed the battalion and they are awaiting instructionjs on board the Lothlorien."

YAtes: "Good, lets head our way down you and I shall supervise this mission personally."


*...General Powell and Admiral Yates transported to the Lothlorian and made there way to the bridge to meet the captain but he was not presant at the time. yates hit the load speaker and spoke...*

As they exited the ship he got into a crouching position and fired a few blind bursts at a group of Heraani, it didn't matter if he killed any- it was just meant to slow them down. Quinn got to his feet and tried his best to keep up behind Brown, while firing at what ever he can.

Suddenly, the ship violently shuddered.  Dolan managed to keep his footing and saw the fighters and the carrier had started firing torpedoes at the Lothlorien.  One of the fighters then seemed to lose helm control as it crashed into another of the fighters after being hit by a phaser burst from the Lothlorien.

"Captain, the Heraani carrier seems to be preparing to deploy more fighters.  And they have a lot more to deploy...I suggest we hurry."

Raszagal kicked off of the Heraan's armor, flipping in the air and landing perfectly in a battle stance. She saw the damaged bracer on the ground and pulled it to her. Noticing it was still fully functional, she tore the rest of the mounting bracket from it, and held it as a sword. It contained a weaker form of Validium inside it as a focus, and produced a vibrant green blade, swirling with subtle psionic ribbons and weaves.

"Colonel," she called, "thank you for the effort, but this one is beyond you. Concentrate on keeping the others off of us. This one and I have our own fight."

"Well, I'm still tinkering with a holographic prototype, but I don't see why I can't construct one now.  I'll get on it right away.  Thank you for your input."

Dolan left the bridge and headed for Cargo Bay 1.  Once there, he started constructing his prototype, starting with the basics.  He constantly referred back to his plans, which he had adjusted to allow for a small shield generator and for several other adjustments later on.  After about an hour and a half, he had finished with the simpler components of the phaser bank.  Fortunately, the prototype didn't really require any specially designed equipment.  The computer used for interface with the prototype and ran most of the phaser's processes was just a modified desktop monitor.  The other materials -- phaser emitters, isolinear chips, casing -- weren't too difficult to find.  He had to replicate most of the materials for the fusion reactor, the sensors, and the shield generator, since the spare parts on the ship were too large to be used for the phaser bank.  He decided to program the necessary algorithms and subroutines later, as they would be very time-intensive.

After finishing with the replications, Dolan stored everything away and headed back to the bridge, as they had almost arrived at the planet.  However, after a few minutes of watching the ship's sensors, a shockwave hit the ship, knocking everyone on the bridge who wasn't sitting off their feet.  The ship suddenly cut engines and all of the bridge consoles locked themselves down.  A symbol which Dolan recognized as the Greek letter Omega was displayed on the consoles.  He tried to override the lockout but nothing he did worked.  He glanced over at Admiral Yates and Rajnus, both of which had an alarmed look on their faces as several of the bridge officers reported the same problem Dolan had.

"Yes sir, on-screen now," Quinn said as he swept his hands over the console just when the ship came into visual range.

A large yellow carrier sized ship appeared on the large screen. The vessel appears to have three curved spires perpetuating outwards from the front.

"The ship does not appear to have detected us yet, Admiral," He reported, staring up at the large image of the ship.

Raszagal held the accelerator to the floor until, finally, they hit a small bump and she turned the truck hard to the left and let off of the throttle. The Puma left the ground and pivoted just over ninety degrees in midair, colliding with three of the Heraan at neck level before hitting the ground skidding to a halt.

Tom walked back onto the Bridge after his trek to and from the long-range communications and sub-space relay controls. He had various burns and cuts on his arms and face, but looked pleased with himself.

"Captain, Long-range communications are operational, and should cover the majority of the planet, though the further the recipient, the more distorted the audio." Looking up, he saw the sensors on the main view screen and walked over to the operations console.

He rerouted power from a few systems, shut off the power going to the now-destroyed sensor panels and shunted it to the functional ones. The image on-screen distorted, and then showed a slightly larger radius, showing 5 green dots with a reading next to them of 3, though the closest dot showed only two - a total now of 14 friendly life signs. There were also three red dots, moving much faster - Heraani fighters. One was within the previous range of the sensors, while the other two were just out.

As the battered deflector dish began charging in it's damaged state, if began to glow. At first just a subtle light, but it gradually built up to a brilliantly bright blue glow. A slight humming could be heard from anyone close enough to it.

As soon as his sensors showed all the Marines inside, the ones right near the dish among them, Tom's eyes flicked back to the readings on the panel infront of him. "Ten seconds!" he warned, as a few sparks shot out from the dish outside as it strained to hold less power than it would have for normal operating.

When he knew that the deflector had charged as much as it was capable, he ran the commands to run an override in it's systems, putting all of that power into the currently inactive shields at once.

There was sudden silence outside for a split second. Then a thunderous wave of blue energy expanded rapidly out from the ship, pushing everything with it - Heraan soldiers, corpses - both Heraan and Federation - rocks, discarded weapons, wreckage from the ship itself. Each and every one of them was thrown back, with no chance of resisting, until the deflectors burnt out, completely inoperable now. The Heraan, however, were now on the floor - disorientated, and without the charge, momentum and advantage they had only moments ago.

Richerd was already keeping the eye on the incoming ship. He was to help secure the ship once it finished it planet landing. He just hoped he would survive this mission.

He ducked as a Fighter dove in, "I want anti air cover on those fighters... we cannot afford to be pinned down."

As he ordered a few men unpacked a futuristic and portable anti-air support and began to track one of the enemy fighters, they were going to cover the others as they moved to their bases... They fired one shot which clipped the wing of one of fighters causing it to crash into the ground fifty feet from anyone on the ground.

It took the team nearly forty-five minutes to complete all of the preparations. Air was running thin, but luckily for Raszagal, her Gallifreyan genetics ensured that she could survive without oxygen, or any atmosphere for that matter, for hours, even days.

The computer core was very intelligently designed, and gaining access required her to break down the security subroutines one by one, often forcing her to reroute her commands through several ancillary subsystems. Finally, she was able to release the security system's strangle-hold on the gravitic coil.

"Self-destruct is shut down, and the charges are disarmed," she said, drawing her phaser. She fired at each of the explosive nodes, one by one, until they all fell to the deck.

"Permanently."

Dolan was confused about what was going on but left the bridge along with the other bridge officers.  He headed to engineering and, upon arrival, saw many of the engineers there frantically trying to get engines back online.  Dolan looked over several of the consoles and figured out that the computer had shut down the engine.  Dolan tried overriding the shutdown but had no success.  He briefly wondered what would cause the computer to shut the engines down before returning to his attempts to override the shutdown.

Dolan hesistated, unsure if the robot and the woman nearby knew about the Omega Directive, before continuing, "...were diverted from our original course and came here.  It had its own power source and was planned to have its own shielding, automated firing, and several other improvements.  If it survived the crash, I could finish building it and, with some help from any one with programming experience, can finish the phaser bank's programming.  We could then deploy it on the other side of the Heraani ship, provided we can salvage deuterium from the Lothlorien's warp core or any of its fusion reactors to power the phaser bank.  From whereever it is deployed, the phaser bank will begin firing on the ship, where would depend on how it is programmed or if we have time to create a console that allows us to select an area of the ship.  If they have any sense of self-preservation, they will focus their ship's weapons on it and possibly send some soldiers to deal with it.  If we place the phaser bank in a easily defended position, marine casualties should be minimal, depending on if the phaser bank is then focused on the approaching Heraan or maintained on the ship.  While the Heraan are distracted with the phaser bank, a team of marines could storm the ship.  Depending on what condition my phaser design is found in, the parts we can salvage - thank goodness I replicated all of the needed materials before leaving - the amount of personnel able to help, the amount of coding we need, and where we decide to place it, it may take anywhere from several hours to maybe even a week, if we have to do everything from scratch.  However, there is a major flaw with any plan to take the Heraani ship - they might just leave the planet if they come under attack."

Dolan hoped that his rambling was somewhat comprehendable and that the Colonel realized that it depended on a lot of "ifs".

Dolan went to the Heraani ship's bridge, which seemed very foreign to him, after checking everyone was on board.  He braced himself for the takeoff, fairly sure any ship in this condition would most likely have a rough time getting off the surface.

He touched ground with his left knee and right hand and instantaniously he thrusted forward and ran tword the fight. As he approached the strey fire wizzed by his head and he dodge the strey shots with ease. As he got closer Heeran troops turned and fired at him with precision and great accuracy but nate avoided each blast as simply as he had before. As he arrived he had unsheethed two daggers from the sides of his armor and swiftly slayed the Heeran firing squad. With out a moment to loose he moved on and continued his sequance of combat killing a number of Heeran. He stopped and turned to see a gernade land in front of him and before the blast he had lunged backwards and when it detonated he was thrown back by the blast and he rolled on the ground and he rolled back onto his feet while bracing him self by dragging his hand ont he ground. When the dust settled the Heeran that had thrownt he gernadelost his avheived grin when he saw the seven foot tall super soldier charge at him with his blades at his sides. He jumped into the air and in one swift movement the Heeran dropped to the groundwith two daggers in his spine...

The bolt of phased energy reflected off of the commander's golden-hued alien armor, leaving nothing but a small grey scorch. He then used his psionic power to do something otherwise impossible; curve energy away from himself. The phased bolts ended up scattering in multiple directions, most in the general vicinity of the Starfleet troops. He was about to pounce onto the insolent human officer, but was interrupted by Raszagal's foot hitting his armor with heavy force. He was knocked to the ground again, and one of his bracers was broken from his armor.

After the skirmish in the complex was over, Dolan wiped the sweat off his face.  Several of the marines were dead, most from their wounds, which were too extensive to repair.  Dolan himself had a nasty cut on his face when he was forced to go hand-to-hand for a minute.  The marines tended to their wounded as Dolan took his tricorder off his belt and scanned for the location of the Omega.  His scans didn't show any lifesigns besides the marines, the General, and himself, to his relief.  He had several marines accompany him, along with the General, to the location of the Omega.  When they reached the room, Dolan realized the thick metal doors were fused shut, probably from stray fire from the fight earlier.  Dolan took out his phaser and began to cut the doors open.

((I actually have no idea where exactly a counselor is supposed to go durring a red alert. *fails*))

Since she was already on the bridge and had yet to encounter a Heerani vessel up until now, curiosity urged her to remain. Finding an unmanned console near the back of the bridge, she quietly walked over to it and began to tap at the controls. After entering in her clearance, she skimmed over the data that had been gathered herself. This may have seemed a bit suspicious considering her position, and under normal circumstances she would have avoided doing it in such a public way (instead, she would have gained access from her office or quarters. After all, she didn't need to hide who/what she was from the Captain, so this wasn't an issue...) but after being briefed as a member of the senior staff, and being talked to privately in the Captain's ready room, most people would probably shrug it off as something he had asked her to stay involved in, which wasn't entirely inaccurate. He had asked her to keep an eye on things, after all...

That's when the ship shook beneath her, nearly knocking her off her feet. She hunched against the console in front of her, bracing for impact that was surely to come again.

Dolan was probably the only person in the room not completely offended by the droid's behavior, but that would most likely come from his lack of contact with the droid, considering everyone else's unhidden dislike of it.

He distanced himself from the conflict between the droid and the other officers, not wanted to get drawn into the conflict.

Dolan double checked that he restored life support to the entire ship, along with artificial gravity and every other primary system.  He then began to look through the now-translated Heraan database and was very interested in the technology they possessed and species they had "encountered".  Some of the technology reminded him of his life briefly before Starfleet.  He downloaded any information the Heraan had on interdimensional travel and similar items...he always held an interest there ever since he joined Starfleet.

HK said while he kept up passive scans of the area and detailed what appeared to be a head quarters or Landing Zone for enemy troops.

"Their seems to be a Landing Zone of over 200 Heraani soldiers up ahead, displayed in a standard defense parameter.  We should pull back for now.  We dont have nor are ready to take out such a large force as if yet." HK said with amusement and glee as his sensors were superior to those of the Puma.

Dolan was a little startled at how soon they were all transported.  He got on the same vehicle as General Powell.  He felt uncomfortable in the marine armor, but supposed if it helped him survive, he could live with it.  He carried his rifle a little awkwardly as he took out his personal tricorder, which was a standard tricorder but with a few additions Dolan made himself.

"General, several of the fighters are coming after us!"  Several nearby plasma bursts proved Dolan correct and Dolan grimaced as the vehicle shook after almost being hit.

Dolan then glanced at his tricorder again before quietly saying to Powell, "I think the Omega is in a research complex several kilometers ahead of us.  It seems somewhat lightly guarded, so they probably don't know the magnitude or the consequenses of what they are doing.  We might have to seize the Omega by force.  Do you have any idea on how we then destroy the molecule?"

Dolan was startled at the announcement, but got ready nevertheless.  He shut down his holoprogram with his experimental phaser design.  He made a note to include a few more heat sinks or to improve the ones already there to increase phaser firing rates.  He then left the holodeck for the bridge.

On his way to the bridge, he wondered what high priority mission the crew would be going on and hoped that it didn't include combat.  From the schematics of the New Orleans class he had seen, they were multi-purpose vessels that had pods that could be filled with the supplies appropriate for the mission.  However, it wasn't especially suited to be a combat vessel though it would be able to hold out on its own for a while.

Shortly after leaving the holodeck, Dolan arrived at the bridge and approached Admiral Yates and General Powell before saluting.

"Ensign Dolan, Chief Science Officer and temporary Chief Engineer of the USS Lothlorien."

John floored the accelerator on the Elongated Puma APC, speeding towards one of the downed lifepods. Calling back to the marine in the rear turret, he said; "Keep an eye on the sky, Corporal! We're going to pick up as many as these babies can hold and take them back to the Lothlorien! And I don't want any of them harmed by enemy fire, understood?"

"Sir, yes Sir!"

As they reached the first life pod, they found four crewmen - three engineers and a security officer, all holding Type IIs, though the security officer the only one holding it confidently.

Moore  skidded the Puma to a halt, and opened the hatch for them to get in, before moving off with the other two APCs driven by his men.


((Still not entirely certain what equipment the marines would have other than what's loosely mentioned, but I'm assuming we'll have some sort of APC variation of the Puma, as everyone needs a way to get a lot of people around quickly, and aircraft aren't always the best way at doing that.))

"This ship is dead, maybe we could set the warhead and leave the Heerani a little surprise when they come here to find us," He said, knowing that would mean the complete destruction of The Lorthlorien, but she's obviously beyond repair and if it's going to die it might as well take a group of bastards with it.

((OOC: This might seem confusing, but this is suppose to give the impression that Dolan is viewing his memories from his own perspective, so he knows certain things that his past self doesn't.))

Dolan still couldn't move and briefly wondered if he had lapsed into a coma before the images drifted into his mind again.

"I demand to speak with Colonel Clarke!" shouted a voice that Dolan realized was his own.  "You have grossly violated UEF protocols!  No civilian ships are allowed to enter the war zone for any reason!  And why didn't you use a land gate anyway?!  They're much safer."

"What are you talking about?  What is this UEF you're talking about?  What war zone?  And what gate?" A person that was dressed in a Starfleet Medical uniform looked quite paniked and confused.

"Is this someone's sick idea of a joke?!  Are you telling me you don't know what UEF is?!  Are you telling me you don't know about the war that has been going on for the last thousand years across the entire galaxy?!"

The doctor tapped a combadge on his chest and said, "Captain, the passenger we picked up seems a little confused."

Dolan quickly realized he was watching from his own point of view when he noticed the scar on the back of the hand that extended out to punch the doctor.  The collision with the force field around the surgical bay didn't seem to deter himself from trying to attack the doctor.  The strangeness of the situation caused Dolan to quickly deduce he was viewing his own memories, though he couldn't recall these events had ever occurred.

"I think you better come down here, Captain.  Quickly."  The forcefield flashed several more times before the doctor said, "Computer, activate the Emergency Medical Hologram Mark III."

Dolan saw the Mark III EMH activate and say the standard "Please state the nature of the medical emergency."  The doctor then quickly said something to the EMH who replied, "Certainly," before taking a hypospray and walking straight through the forcefield.  The view of the scene backed away quickly but the EMH was quick and managed to inject a sedative the past Dolan, as Dolan nicknamed the view he was occupying.  Before the past Dolan completely blacked out, he heard distantly, "...should try mind probes...link his mind to the holodeck...not making sense...confused..."

Dolan's head was beginning to boggle at what he was seeing.  It didn't make any sense to him.  However, before he could think more, he dropped into unconsciousness, right after he thought ~How do you go unconscious in a coma?~

Suddenly, some of the Heraani soldiers began to fire into a totally different direction, and their plasma fire fell upon open ground. The commander, confused by this, searched outwards with his mind, and found nothing.

"You fools! It is a ruse! Continue firing on the humans!"

The commander searched again, but this time, for the one who dared cause this distraction. He found the culprit, a Betazoid underling. The commander, with rage in his eyes, sprinted at full speed toward this puny telepath, and lunged at him, blades searing, with all of his power.

Raszagal said a silent prayer to Adun while the commander spoke, knowing that he was a much more powerful warrior than she. As soon as she finished, the commander lunged at her, and she instinctively parried and managed to kick off of his body. While she was hoping it would disrupt him, the Heraan was too large and had his feet too well planted for that. Luckily, it allowed her to leap away from him, and to land on a jutted support beam a few meters up.

The Heraani commander growled with displeasure, and even though he had no mouth, the gutteral sounds could be heard well. The fearsome race was crafted by the Na'jigat to inspire horror in their enemies, and they retained the primal growl of an animal, despite their lack of vocals or a stomach.

"I will NOT be made a fool of, whelp!" he screamed into her mind, and lunged into the air at her once more. She deftly blocked, although she could feel the crackle of both her blade and his in her face, the searing energy passing centimeters from it. She flipped over him, planted her feet on his back, and kicked again. This time, the Heraan was in mid-air, and was thrown into the beam, while Raszagal landed in the very spot her enemy was moments ago.

"I disagree," she stated matter-of-factly.

"There's no way I could power the armor for everyone myself. I might be able to engage a suit I was wearing, but not even that is certain. Only someone like Master Legudon or Master Taurik could do that. The active camo devices utilize the wearer's psi-energy to bend light around them, so that light seems to pass through them unaffected, but this doesn't mask their thoughts, which I can detect. If you want, sir, I can rig a sniper rifle to emit a multi-vector laser to spot out the cloaked soldiers and elites, and our riflemen can then fire blind at that point."

Raszagal seemed hesitant to bring up the flaw in her plan, however. "Some of the stronger officers may be able to actually remove themselves from your thoughts, making you completely incapable of acknowledging them. I'd have to, somehow, take those ones myself."

Tom pulled himself up on his console. He had a gash on his head, a nosebleed, and he could feel some blood trickling down his right leg.

The console in front of him was only barely functioning, the controls flickering on and off. "Shields....offline. Life Support out on all decks minus Decks 1, 3 and Deck 5, Section 1. Hull Breaches on all decks. Transporters...have a minute amount of power but are not functional. Weapons systems are either offline or destroyed. The lower three decks and the forward section of the main hull are.......gone, Sir."

"Whats going on?" Balkazar asked in a rough voice.

A tone rang out from Quinn's console,

He ran his fingers quickly across the panal, "Uh, possibility a large vessel,"

Raszagal ducked as a green blade passed right over her head. She countered with a psionic pulse, which knocked the commander off-balance. She took this moment to jump up to a support beam about five meters up. The commander looked up and laughed. "You think that will stop me?"

The commander jumped up after her. This was the opportunity. Raszagal jumped off of the other end, and looked up to see the commander in mid-air, more than a little confused. Raszagal then used the piece of Khaydarin from her khala to augment her power, and let loose a psionic blast as powerful as she could muster. Because the commander had no footing on the ground, he was launched a few dozen or so meters off of the ground.

"No," she said telepathically, as she watched the commander continue to fly upwards helplessly. "I'll leave it to the ground to stop you. It won't be nearly as subtle as I."

A few seconds after Raszagal stepped back into the remains of the Lothlorien, a golden-clad body hit the ground with a sickening crunch.

Dolan was shocked at the lengths the Colonel was willing to go to take control of the Heraani ship.

"Colonel, I highly doubt even Section 31 of Article 14 of the Starfleet Charter allows for the use of flesh-eating pathogens.  And nanites would most likely take too long to develop and deploy, not to mention test."

"So half to support the federation and their crashed ship and the other half to retrieve the partical or particals?.  If the Heerani do land troops they wont know where to find the partical which gives you an edge, but leaving the starfleet to fend for themselves isnt right either.  They dont know how to fight the Heerani like we do." Balkazar said to the General.

"Richerds, you take 20 men and suit up in the armor we brought along.  We will need the use of them.  Then they will break up, 10 with me and 10 with the general to ensure his safety." Balkazar ordered.

Raszagal, fearing she may explode at HK47 again, completely ignored his presence, and walked over to one of the command consoles on the ship. Being the only member of the battalion that could read Heraan, she began working at the controls to isolate the remaining Heraani where they were, to be dealt with later.

She then patched into the comm system and sent out a hail to the rest of the marines. "This is Private Raszagal onboard the Heraani scoutship..." she paused as she accessed the ship's name... "Swift Retribution. We've taken care of the majority of the crew, and have secured the command chamber. I'm activating the engines now, and I will relocate the ship to a more suitable loading point for the Lothlorien crew. Raszagal out."

Once she ensured that HK47 had left the ship (as she had no wish to remain on a ship with him any longer than necessary), she fired up the engines and lifted the ship a few dozen meters over the forest cover. It was a very short trip, as the Heraan had landed close to the crash site, before the scoutship passed over the clearing caused by the crash. Raszagal gently settled the ship down in the Lothlorien's wake, and opened all access hatches for the crew.

Dolan finished repairs in the section of the ship he was in and was heading back to engineering when he noticed a storage room on the ship no one had entered yet.  Deciding to take inventory, he went inside.  He saw a number of spare parts but also saw some strange items, none of which were recognizable to Dolan, except for a couple that were familiar to Dolan.  He continued to take inventory, making very detailed descriptions of the things he couldn't identify.

Post by: Voyager on January 23, 2008, 04:49:04 AM
Dolan decided to try and figure out how to disable the security protocols without taking out the rest of the computer and the ship.  However, he first created a subroutine to be added to the translation matrix to make it harder to detect and to circumvent any security protocols that might arise.  He also added another subroutine that would deactivate or dismantle any security protocols that could not be avoided.

Deciding that was the best he could do for the translation program, he moved on to disabling the security protocols directly.  He decided to base his program on one he had encountered in his earlier years, to save precious time.  He added more aggressive subroutines to help destroy tough security measures and a subroutine to neutralize the ones that couldn't be destroyed until they could be manually.

Dolan found programming in zero-gravity surprisingly mind-focusing.  Of course, the slowly depleting levels of oxygen weren't a great bonus to that.  The lack of energy flowing anywhere thoughout the ship was also disconcerting to Dolan, who was used to the barely noticable hum of the plasma conduits running.  As he finished, he briefly wondered why the Heraan would have a security program that would power down the entire ship before activating the self-destruct.

"Ensign Dar'Nas," called out Dolan, "I have a few additions I'd like to add to your translation matrix.  Also, I'd like to run a program that would get rid of the tougher programs first, just in case there are some backup security measure that speed up the self-destruct or something similar lurking back there."

Once that was ready, he patiently floated in mid-air, waiting for Raszagal to finish deactivating the self-destruct, which ever way she preferred, since Dolan didn't have much experience deactivating explosive charges, so that he and Dar'Nas could run the translation matrix and the anti-security program through the ship's computer core.

"Its very good to see you all again. I am quit sure the maggots will develope quit nicely with such a outstanding staff. Also I would like you all to know that before we depart I will be welcoming back one of our greatest vetrens of the 17th Battalion we almost lost in battle."

*He turns to HK*

"You again?! I thought by now you would have rusted over and have been scrapped off for something actually useful... perhaps a hypospry dispencer."

*Powell smirks*

"Oh and lucky for you. Your Old friend Comm One will also be joining us in this mission."

"You should know that your father did make 1 request of me and Admiral Yates when he found out you were going to be recruited.  Should anything happen to him, we were to watch out for you.  I take my duty in that regard an honor." Simon told Aariya before she left.

"Very good, Now, would you please send Thomas Richards in.  Remember, your my eyes and ears, I dont like false information.  I want you to keep an eye on the crew and the starfleet and marine personel.  That is all." Simon said releasing privacy mode on his office.

"I would say the same thing about how you smell meatbag but I have to put up with it.  My weapons do need to be upgraded I suppose.  But then again I could have just blasted them with my plasma weapons but where would be the blood and gore in that?" HK said with much sarcastic amusement.

"Well, I have plans to create a secondary shield for the ship in case the main one fails, but since that seems a little far away, I would think that a small shield generator could be integrated into the phaser bank, since they are so much more compact.  The shield matrix would probably only be activated if the ship's shields were disabled, to maintain the highest phaser bank output possible.  In addition, the phaser bank can be disconnected from the main control, with authorization from several of the senior staff, since it has a small computer to maintain the sensors and to help acquire the target faster.  It would by default be connected to the ship's computer, but if the ship was under attack by multiple targets in multiple directions, instead of the multi-vector assault mode the Prometheus class has, the ship's phasers would be able to fire on the targets simultaneously if needed.  However, the only disadvantage - though it can be an advantage - to the disconnection is that reconnecting the phaser bank to the main computer is only possible from the phaser bank itself.  This could be made into a time-intensive process, to prevent the enemy from seizing control of the ship's weapons before their own ship is destroyed, as the phasers would continue to fire.  Reprogramming the phaser's computer might also be made into a time-intensive process, to give the crew enough time to stop whoever is trying to sabotage the ship from succeeding."

(OOC: To Admiral Yates: I'll address my promotion in a little bit, I just want to get this self-sufficent phaser bank discussion finished up.  For now, I've changed my avatar, so I won't have to do it in the minutes right before I have to jump on my bus to school.  Then again, you could make your "mistake" again...)

"Helm, set course and engage warp 8." Simon said as he walked down to the command chair, then sat in it feeling good to be back in the chair even if it will be temporary.

"Yes sir, Setting course and engaging warp 8, Aye.  ETA 6 hours." the helmsmen called out.

<Staring threw the bushes and trees that he was using as cover as the marines continued to pelt the area with mortar.  Balkazar noticed a weary Raszagal come threw the trees and approached his position>

"Raszagal, is their someway we could jury rig the units armor to run off your abilities? Im sure our Engineers would love to get their hands on their technology to try and figure something out to assist us.  Not to mention it would keep them busy for awhile.  So, The General wants this ship intact but im afraid he didnt specify the exact condition.  Im assuming he wants it fixable, so we could do enough damage to make it fixable and servicable.  So how do we disrupt their cloaking fields.  Or at the very least turn their cloaking fequencies to a spectrum that our helmets can pick up.  Can this frequency also be salvaged from their armor, Raszagal.  Im sure they would have had some sort of computer in their possession that would reveal this lil tid bit or SOMETHING! to assist us in this problem." Balkazar asked as he felt his symbiote heal his shoulder wound that he had previously received.

((Im going to speed things up a lil bit))

<Once the Heraan ship was fixed to make it Slipstream capable.  With Raszagal at the helm they sped their way threw slipstream towards Avalon station.  Soon they were near Starfleet space in the neutral zone and were a couple minutes from the Starfleet borders>

"Razsagal, send a message to all federation ships and Avalon station and inform them that we will be crossing into Federation space soon with a commendeered Heraan vessel.  Then inform them I need to see Admiral Karellia upon my arrival." Simon ordered Razsagal.

Raszagal tapped a few commands on the alien control console, and the message was sent, already translated into Federation Standard for the benefit of the ops officers there.

"I've given them the signature of our pulse beacon, they'll see us coming."

Raszagal almost replied, but shrugged off the insult. "I'll take the driver's position. HK, you man the turret."

The slender Gallifreyan climbed into the driver's chair of the large truck, while the copper-hued droid hoisted himself onto the bed of the vehicle, and powered up the phaser turret.

"Brace yourselves," she said, and gunned the throttle. The enormous, 34-inch tires dug into the loose dirt, and spit gravel behind the Puma as it raced off toward the forest edge.

Dolan carefully monitored the Heraani ship's movements.  They were indeed powering up weapons, but they were also launching about half a dozen smaller vessels, about the size of a shuttle, who also began powering weapons.

Raszagal stumbled from the wreckage of the Lothlorien, making her way over to the Colonel and Lieutenant Moore.

"The Heraan," Moore said. "There were commanders in the battle, there must be some with some of their cloaking armour. We might be able to salvage some of the units, fit them to some of our marines."

Raszagal poked in. "Lieutenant, if I may? The Heraani active camoflage devices are dependent on their user's psionic powers. To a psionic inert like the marines here, it would be useless, much like the energy blades.

Tom had been working hard on the ship's systems, trying to find something that he could get operating that would help them. Phasers were almost completely out of the question, as they were either all buried, powerless, or just not there, sheared off in their descent and crash landing. They had also been the first thing the Heraan had aimed for in their attack.

"GOT YA!" he yelled, as a small section of his screen started to show some fluctuating power readings.

"Sir!" he cried out to the Admiral. "I can get the deflector working for one short pulse. It'll fry out most of the circuits for the dish, but I can use it like a shock wave, and push the Heraan back. It'll take four minutes to charge the dish sufficiently for the pulse!"

The uncharacteristic outburst shocked him. Normally he was calm and collected, even in battle. He'd have to take some time out as soon as he could and calm his emotions. Though that would probably be quite a while.

=/\="Bridge to all Starfleet and Marine forces outside of the ship. Begin moving back towards the ship immediately. Try and get inside, or as close to the hull as you can. Bridge out."=/\=

He hoped that his trick would cause enough of a lull in the Heraan's offensive to allow the Marines to strike back. He noticed on the sensors though some life signals near the deflector dish. Anyone that close when the pulse went of would likely be killed.

=/\="Major. You'll have to start moving your Marines inside the ship, that close to the deflector dish on the outside of the ship......wouldn't be pleasant."=/\= he  said. He knew there was a large hole in the dish, hopefully they could hold them off from just in there until he could initiate the pulse.

He began the painstaking process of charging the dish, ready for when the Admiral gave his approval, if he was concious enough to do so. He had taken a pretty bad strike to the head.

"I will explain as soon as we have established a ALPHA-TWO LEVEL FOUR security level."

*...He looks around and waits for all the junior staff to leave the bridge. HK included...*

"Computer, recognize Yates 096alpha76beta3939charlie security level five access."

Computer: Confirmed.

"Computer brief me on situation "Omega"."

Computer: The presence of the Ompega partical has been detected approximatly 4 light years from our current location in the current course. Prime Directive order have been overrided and Omege Directive has been established. Destruction of the omege partical must be carried out as a HIGH priority order.

"Computer, were is the partical located?"

Computer: Starfleet Research and development Platform Oakly in orbit of Planet Oakly.

*...Yates put his hand to his brow and sat in the guest officers chair adjacent to the command chair...*

"Computer unlock all systems and disengage Omega lockdown."

Computer: Confirmed.

*...The lights dim back up and the consuls and systems are returned to their previous state. yates stands and looks to the officers on the bridge...*

"As I have expected. Our reseachers on Oakly have created an Omega. Which would explain the Heerani's intrest in the system. We do not have the time to call in omega specialist. The closest one we have here is General Powell. We will use his expertise to eliminate the partical ASAP. We cannot risk the Heeran getting a hold of this. If they suceed then the federation is over as you know it. This is not to leave the bridge or your minds what so ever. If so you will bedischarged and outcast and forgotten. Do I make myself clear?"

"I'm doing well myself, all things considered.  Repairs are almost complete and we're still trying to figure out what some parts of the ship do and how they work," replied Dolan, "So do you have any idea what Starfleet might want to do with the ship?  It seems more advanced than many Federation ships, if more spartan.  Its database might have a lot of useful information too."  Dolan then smiled as he glanced at the engineering kit in his hand.

"Well, I should get back to repairs.  Nice seeing you again Captain."  Dolan turned around but then spun around again to face Simon.  "I almost forgot to tell you.  Some of the files that are restricted in the database seem to be classified for no apparent reason.  Maybe you could have someone look in on that once we're back at Avalon or repairs are finished.  See you later Captain."  Dolan gave a quick smile before turning around and walking down the corridor, his shoes clicking loudly against the metal floor.

((No Ramming because its not part of the storyline.))

"Have all personel except for the staff to abandon ship and have them hook up with the marines." Simon yelled out as another bulkhead fell in front of him.

"Richards, get instructural integrity up to take the full blunt of the damage as we go in.  It should take some pressure off the hull.  Reinforce the shields, Mr Brown." Simon said as he watched the planets surface come even closer as the Lothlorien plunged to the earth.

"Strap in, EVERYONE!!." he yelled out.
