"If we can get a transmition out Captain i would suggest contacting Starfleet for assistance."

Travis looked at the sensor readings.

"Keep an eye on they fain signal. If thats not starfleet or a friendly ship we may have double trouble."

A Runnabout approached the Rivendell.


=A="This is Commander William Travis requesting permission to board."=A=

"Permission granted Commander, Ensign Matthews you have tactical."

=A="Bridge to Sickbay, what is Commander Freemans condition. I need him asap so we can regain warp power."=A=

He then turns to Matthews one of the few on the bridge.

"Try to contact Avalon Station, inform them we may need assistance to tow. Inform them we have injured."

Travis stood as the Captain left the bridge.

"Helm, set course for the cloud give me a pulse of full impulse to give us a jump, Then shut all power off Ensign Mattews, we'll get only one chance. Once its off the second its back on we'll meet the fate of the borg."

No Ensign. At the moment we are evaluating damage and repairing. If the weapons are damaged please report to Commander Freeman. I will be going onboard the station, the next ranking officer has the bridge."

Travis walks to the turbolift

He looks at the new officer.

"Welcome to the Rivendell Mr. Matthews, I'm Commander Travis, First Officer. It seems you may face your first challenge soon. Lt. Baklavar, Ensign Matthews, i think you should prepare for battle. Make sure all weapons are in check and post security teams. Work with the phasers to get some shots at the borg if they board." Travis nods at the men to begin working.

Travis nods to the Doctor.

"Helm, set a course for Avalon Station warp 8, Engage"

He turned to Ensign Kassie

"Damage report Ensign"

Travis faced the screen.

=A="This is Commander William Travis, We're doing something right now, i don't know how much help you could give. We will lose communications soon."=A=

Travis exits the Captains Ready Room sitting in the XO chair.

"Captain, i believe we are ready sir, Helm stand by to proceed to the catapolt, hail them."

Travis got up from the CO chair.

"Request permission to dock Ensign Matthews."

=A="Right doctor, when he is ready for duty inform him to see about repairs."=A=

Travis presses a comm button on his chair.

"This is Commander Travis to all stations, we're about to dock at Avalon Station, all crew will be given leave to the recreational facilities."

"I don't know if any of the Rivendells officers are getting off other than the Admiral is assistant and Major Embries"

"I have faith in the crew of this ship and its Captain to insure a repeat does not happen. We are all mindful of the past events but it makes us only more eager to prove theorys wrong"

"Would you like me to have a security detail escourt him to the brig. Or confine him to quarters."

Travis looks scepticly as Q. Unsure how the Admiral would keep him in place.

off: Don't know, i am going to carry one when we get going, heard theres some attacks at Deep Space 20. They've got most of there ships for security.
