Mission 11: "Impromptu Heroism"

[Givrillian Sarpedon]

"Sir, perhaps Cadet Beta could go on the away team? He seemed to perform well against our intruders earlier."

[T'lana]

OOC: Oops, my bad. http://www.expansionfleet.com/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'> I can change it if you want, that's what edit is for. What should it be? You never said where we were so I just assumed.

[T'lana]

"Once we receive permission to leave the Rivendell Mr. Beta, the planet in question is approximately 3.26 lightyears from this position, the journey in Quantum Slipstream will take one minute."



OOC: Don't worry Beta, the Kelata is the size and approx. layout of a Federation run-a-bout, of Vulcan design of course so the command consoles are laid out in a semi-circle from the forward windshield. Helm/Ops at the meridian, Tactical at the starboard apex and Communications at the port apex.

"Configure the Warp Nacelles to direct the negative energy to the Main Deflector Dish, we are attempting a sustained warp field pulse."

=A=T'lana Out=A=

T'lana then used the Science Station to reconfigure the Main Deflector Dish to take the negative energy produced by the Warp Core, which is no mean feet given the amount of negative energy required to usually manipulate spacetime.

"The Main Deflector Dish has been reconfigured Captain, just waiting for Engineering to channel(post) the nacelles into the Deflector Dish, then we shall be ready to fire."

THE MATRIX:

SO THE PREVIOUS LORD PRESIDENT, THE DOCTOR HAS GIVEN YOU THE "RADIANT THUNDER". AND YOU HAVE ACCEPTED. GOOD. THEN LET IT BE SO. TAKE THE "RADIANT THUNDER" ACCOMPLISH THAT WHICH NEEDS TO BE DONE. SENTINEL TAURIK, YOU MAKE US PROUD.
IN THIS ENDEAVOR A GALLIFREYAN MUST BE WITH YOU. REASONS OF WHICH WILL BECOME CLEAR OVER TIME. SENTINEL TAURIK MAY CHOOSE THE GALLIFREYAN.
GO NOW MY CHILDREN. BUT REMEMBER. THERE IS A FINE LINE BETWEEN ORDER AND CHAOS. CHOOSE WISELY.
DOES THE HIGH COUNCIL AGREE. END OF LINE


The High Council of Gallifrey and representatives of the Order of Gallifrey agreed to the proposal of The Matrix, with no further discussion.

All members of the High Council teleported away to their respective appointments, or vessels, or whatever else each member wanted.

With T'lana, Taurik and Givrillian, left in an empty chamber. T'lana gathered her wits and walked back to the Kelata.
Taurik and Givrillian were directly behind her as she sat at the Helm, Taurik and Givrillian sat at their respective places.

Apparently they had some preparations to do, the Doctor new, but it took The Matrix to make it clear.

T'lana closed the embarkation ramp and activated the stardrive. The Kelata took off into the sky of the planet Gallifrey, a world of wonders and the impossible.

Once they had reached the stratosphere, a message came from the APCnet saying that a window in the Transduction Barrier had been generated and gave the coordinates.

Once clear, T'lana set course for the Space Station Avalon and engaged the Slipstream.

Moments later the Kelata arrived at the designated coordinates and exited the Slipstream. Placing the {i]Kelata[/i] in a parking orbit of the Maintenance Hatch again, she opened a channel.

=A=Kelata to Morgan Freeman=A=

"We have returned Mr. Freeman, how goes the repairs?"

=A=Kelata Out=A=

[T'lana]

"Once you are in position, come to an all stop Mr. Sarpedon and once the vessel is clear launch another probe." T'lana ordered.

[Taurik]

"We could use you at Tactical, cadet."

(OFF: Just googled the White Star. Very nice.)

[T'lana]

"The internal communications system would be down with every other system, bar the Station's Operating System, which runs on a Sarium Krellide powercell, which would be depleted by now."

T'lana continued.

"The Slipfighter's technology is superior in every way to anything we have, so yes the Slipfighter's sensors are quite efficient, why do you ask?"

[Taurik]

Taurik sat in his command chair, gazing at the oddly-shaped viewscreen, on the alien bridge, giving orders to a skeleton crew made up of both Starfleet and Gallifreyan officers. The impact of his situation, his very being, finally hit him. It seemed like only days ago, he was a young Ensign on the U.S.S. Enterprise, having lunch with his companions Sam Lavelle and Sito Jaxa in Ten Forward, watching them worry over who would get the Ops promotion from Commander Riker. Now, here he was, a Starfleet captain, as well as a member of an alien council, fighting a war not only for the sake of the Federation, but for every being in the galaxy. He didn't even feel Vulcan anymore.
  Techerakh entered the bridge and shook him out of his reverie by placing a hand on his shoulder. "Yes, you've come a long way," came the four-hundred-year-old warrior's voice in his mind. "But your crew follows you with distinction. Even now, they expect leadership, need an example to follow. As did you once."
  Taurik found it difficult to restrain his pride. His master's opinion of him was one of the most important in his eyes. Maintaining his control, he stood. "Helm, set course, coordinates two-one-five by zero-seven-eight. Engage slipstream drive, cruising speed."

[T'lana]

T'lana looked wearily at Dr. O'neil, trying her best in usual Vulcan stubbornness to appear fine.

"I appreciate your...concern Doctor O'neil, but I am sure I am functioning normally."

T'lana slipped off the biobed, picked herself back up and went to the door, her legs wobbling slightly as she went.

Once at the turbolift, she called for a car and when it arrived, made her way to the bridge.

She wondered how they were all going with the Heraani, there were none present on her voyage to Deck One, but that logically didn't mean they were gone completely.

On the bridge, T'lana nearly fainted as she made her way to the Command Chair.

"Reporting for booty...err...duty Captain."

[HK47]

"Your enthusiasm to impress me is not needed.  I am not the one you should be impressing with your very limited knowledge."

[Givrillian Sarpedon]

hmm, OK. But also, there is also the possibility of using the Ship's multi-vector assault mode, which would make it a hell of a lot easier for us to take one a couple of warbirds

[HK47]

"Your statement is true, however, if you check the computer you will see I still hold the rank of ambassador.  You will also see that I have faithfully guarded Captain Sanchez and assisted the Evolution crew in several drastic missions.  Also sense I still hold the rank of ambassador, it gives me certain freedoms that an actual rank doesnt permit, which is why im sooo.... versatile." he said in a computerized voice.

(OFF: ...I thought you already were aboard. If not, feel free to do so.)
