Mission 3: The Capture of the U.S.S. Skytoucher

[William Travis]

Travis moves from Blacks shoulder sitting in the chair Taurik had just left.

[Taurik]

"Commander, are you familiar with a certain Loxian names Vakin? He is apparantly attempting to hijack the Skytoucher."
Taurik turns to Black.
"Mr. Black, try connecting to the Skytoucher computer using the remote prefix codes."

(OFF: But make sure it takes a while...)

[Skon]

OFF: I know. I'm not trying to dictate who goes on the mission. We're just trying to work this device into the story, so I thought I'd warn you since Hermes told me about it and it will give the away team an idea of what's going on.

[Taurik]

"Thank you, Orpheus. Our helmsman must still be on Avalon Station. Orpheus, please take control of the navigation systems and disengage from the station. Set a pursuit course for the Skytoucher."

Taurik presses a comm button on his arm console.

=/\= U.S.S. Rivendell to U.S.S. Skytoucher. Mr. Vakin, you will not be allowed to hijack a Federation starship. We have phasers locked on you, and if you do not surrender the vessel in 10 seconds, you will be fired upon. I await your response. =/\=

[Taurik]

Taurik leaves the Tactical console and sits in his chair again.

"Mr. Cloud, begin scanning for any way to detect the whereabouts of the Skytoucher."

[Rasmain]

OFF: you may want to post the shooting actions in the Skytoucher too, so Vakin knows what is happening to the ship.

[belanna]

off: im back i finaly got some time to post again

[Mitch Walker]

"Aye sir."  Mitch gets up and heads for the turbolift.

OFF:  Would I post in here or on the Skytoucher board?

[Morgan Freeman]

[Taurik]

Captain Taurik, accompanied by Lt. Commander Black from the Skytoucher, arrive on the bridge.

=/\= All hands, battlestations. Senior staff, report to the bridge. =/\=

"Mr. Black, please take the Ops console, if you will."

[William Travis]

Travis runs to the bridge.

"Sorry for the delay. Whats the situation?"

=^= U.S.S. Skytoucher to U.S.S. Rivendell =^=
The Loxian Vakin has managed to escape in a shuttle. He's beyond our reach now. But he has not taken his hostage with him, she's in sickbay now. Hold your fire, the Skytoucher is back under our control.
