Mission 11: "Impromptu Heroism"

[Taurik]

=^= Sanchez to Rivendell =^=
Taurik, it is good to hear you again, and it's a relief to hear those Heraani are dealt with. But before you occupy yourself with repairs on our ship, are the members of our away teams on the planet in safety?
=^= Sanchez out =^=

"The planet in question is a few light years away," Taurik responded. "We would need to leave you for a time to assist them. Is your ship warp-capable?"

[Givrillian Sarpedon]

<Sarpedon's hands flew over the controls.>

"3-Quarters Impulse engaged Captain! We are approaching the Heraani ship on a standard attack vector. Ready for evasive manoeuvres."

[Kassie]

"Captain, Decks 3 and 4 are loosing atmosphere.  Initiating evacuation protocols."

[Morgan Freeman]

"I give you my word that the craft will not be copied in any way.  I hope we can build a working relationship between our people Sagittarii."  Morgan said politely.

[Taurik]

"Ready weapons and standby."

[Givrillian Sarpedon]

[Holographic Officer Beta]

=^=Away Team to Kelata=^=

"There are Heraani troops surrounding our former position. We are out now, but it might help even the odds later if you could take a few out."

=^=Away Team Out=^=

<As the away team cleared the ambush zone, they began heading towards base camp, as Alexia had called it, firing at the Heraani they could see behind them while on the move.>

[Morgan Freeman]

"Its wonderful, just a little intoxicating.  I do have to warn you, I haven't done this for a very long time."  he says as he caresses her beautiful face.

[Givrillian Sarpedon]

Tapping a few controls, Sarpedon put one last boost through the impulse engines to bring them within 500 metres, then forced the ship to a complete stand-still.

"Done"

[Doctor Who]

After the reply from his fellow Gallifreyan, the Doctor teleported back up to the TARDIS and went to the Central Control.

The Doctor programmed the TARDIS to fly to the USS Rivendell and opened a channel.

@@TARDIS to USS Rivendell@@

"Well captain, if I am  not needed anymore, I will leave you to it. Before I do though, I shall give you a direct means of contacting me. *The blue Comm-crystal materialized onto Taurik's lap* Of course if you wanted a Gallifreyan on your ship, I could be easily persuaded, I'm getting lonely in my  old age."

*The Doctor smiled*

@@TARDIS OUT@@

The Doctor waited for Captain Taurik's reply, but also had the TARDIS spinning up it's Slipspace Engine.

[T'lana]

"Dismissed Mr. Sarpedon."

T'lana hit the ship-wide.

=A=SHIP WIDE=A=

"All hands this is Lieutenant Commander T'lana, shore leave granted, you dismissed with our thanks."

=A=SHIP WIDE=A=

With that said, T'lana left the bridge and walked the umbilical to Avalon.
From there she made her way to find Morgan and see what he was doing.

=A=T'lana to Computer=A=

"Computer, locate Morgan Freeman."

Computer: Morgan Freeman is in Shuttlebay Three.

=A=T'lana out=A=

...So that is where she headed...

[Givrillian Sarpedon]

"Hmm. I never thought of that. Dropping out of warp Captain."

<As he ran his hands over the controls the ship once more slowed down to sub-light speeds.>

[T'lana]

Computer: Warning unknown starship decloaking at grid 0123, 98. Weapons and shields are activated and targeting the Slipfighter.

"Computer, arm antiproton canons, and missiles, prepare for 80 psl multiple attack vessels."

Computer: Warning, at eighty percent - speed of light during battle, the Slipfighter is at risk of total failure.

"I know, follow my orders."

Computer: Acknowledged

T'lana accelerated the Slipfighter to 240,000 km/s, she new that at those velocities the extremely powerful space superiority starfighter could easily outrun the the missiles it fired, so T'lana had to think quick - really quick.

The Heraani Battlecruiser fired at the Slipfighter, at least where it was anyway, as the small 2 person vehicle accelerated just as they fired.

T'lana made a strafing run for the Heraani weapons first, firing two proton/antiproton missiles and a barrage of electromagnetically enveloped antiproton particles from the AP canons.
The missiles hit their mark, but it was the AP Canon blasts that hit their mark. The antiproton bolts interacted with the positive energy of the Heraani shields and they annihilated each other.

The Heraani fired again but they missed, that went on for what seemed a long time as this hit and run is all she could manage in the Slipfighter.

During the battle, the Slipfighter took attack runs at 80 psl but strained when it came to making quick vectoral turns.

Like a wasp against an elephant, the Slipfighter would have been out matched by the Heraani vessel if it wasn't for it's speed.
But this wasp - Slipfighter - was eventually too much for this elephant - Heraani battle cruiser - and the latter suffered from a warp core breach and exploded.

Unfortunately the Slipfighter was caught by the gravimetric shockwave and could no longer handle stress.

Computer: CODE BLACK. Slipstream Core breach in progress. Atmospheric Generator working at 45%. Gravity field Generator 25%. Magneto Plasma Dynamic Drive, offline.
AI Computer Core 90%. Suggest cockpit ejection.

As the Slipfighter spun out of control, T'lana managed to pull the ejection system handle.

=A=T'lana to Morgan=A=

"Morgan...need help...ha' to ejec'. Heraani cruiser destroyed..."

=A=Communications Broken=A=

The cockpit ejected from the main stardrive section of the Slipfighter, which meant weapons too unfortunately and exploded.

Even T'lana's superior physiology could no longer handle to excessive force of gravity. T'lana passed out as the cockpit spun out of control.
If it wasn't for the on board AI though, the cockpit would be exiting the Avalon's star system at 240,000 km/s, instead of it's now 3000 km/s. Due to the AI's quick thinking and manipulation of the remaining Slipfighter's section's GFG at the last moment the Slipstream Core breached.

[T'lana]

=A=Kelata to Away Team=A=

"It seems that the Heraani  have beamed away, I am reading multiple quantum effects. It seems that they transported to the Fortress' perimeter."

=A=Kelata Out=A=

OOC: That better? geesh
