Mission 11: "Impromptu Heroism"

[Taurik]

Taurik reattached the hilt of his khala to his belt.

"Permission granted, cadet."

[T'lana]

T'lana wobbled over to the Science Station and logged in again, scanning the area.

"Captain, it seems the Warp Field was responsible for the quantum tears into subspace, at current speed we will be at the USS Evolution's position in 22.32 hours. Suggest increasing speed to Warp 9.7 sir, that way the arrival time will be 4.14 hours."


OOC: I put the Evolution at 1 lightyear distant from the USS Rivendell, so at least it wont take too long to get there. http://www.expansionfleet.com/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'>

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

OOC: That better? geesh

[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"

[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?"

[T'lana]

As T'lana was unconscious, her mind hearkened back to the time when she was a slave for the Orion Syndicate, something that occurred more and more lately.

**A young T'lana was just out of the Science Academy and on her first mission to the Alnitak System. In old human terms, Alnitak was in the belt of Orion, a constellation name after a Greek god and was a thought to be an ancient Vulcan colony.
Mintaka being another of the three Orion's Belt stars was known to be the home of a Proto-Vulcan culture as found by the USS Enterprise D.

So they sent their novice scientist, T'lana, to investigate further.

T'lana had already built the "Kelata"  by then and with it's prototype Slipspace Engine was ideal for such a journey.
Although unfinished, namely the Ablative Armor and Cloaking Device, T'lana headed out in the "Kelata" for the Alnitak System.
Unfortunately an Orion Slave Ship was in the Alnitak System and picked up the spacetime rupture as the "Kelata" exited Slipspace.
A successful test of the new Slipspace Engine was dampened by the ensuing battle that left the "Kelata" returning to Vulcan under computer control and T'lana in the hands of the Orion Syndicate.
The time she spent with the Slave traders left her scarred for life, as T'lana endured being tortured and raped repeatedly and that was all before she was taken to the auctioning chamber on Orion Three.

There T'lana suffered more humiliation and was eventually sold to a nasty little Ferengi pervert who designed and sold Holosuite "love" programs.

T'lana was forced to pose in various positions unbecoming of a Vulcan, in various alluring garments and made into the lead Slave Girl of a Holonovel called "Vulcan Love Slave 3".
What made her humiliation worse, was the fact that "Vulcan Love Slave 3" was the most popular in the sordid and insidious series.

T'lana finally got a break, when her Ferengi Master was placed under arrest for using real people as the basis of the Adult Holonovels. But to save themselves from retribution, decided to kill T'lana.

Ferengi complacency on her side, T'lana manged to steal the Marauder that was her prison for months and went out to seek revenge on the Slave Ship, which she destroyed with the Marauder suffering damage as it went.

Eventually returning to Vulcan after being helped by an alien base she stumbled upon, T'lana returned to Vulcan and underwent multiple Kolinahr rites and Fullara to suppress the memories. Returning to her duties she subconsciously blamed the Science Council for her ideal, so she added ablative armor and a cloaking device and joined the V'shar before joining Star Fleet after 5 earth years.**

T'lana awoke on the Kelata with a start, she would have been sweating from the memories if it wasn't for the fact that Vulcans have no sweat glands.

T'lana had fear in her eyes as Givrillian was still standing over her, which subsided as she regained control and shook off the last of the memories.

T'lana wiped the green blood from her nose, that occurred due to several capillaries bursting due to gravitic pressure.

"Thank you Mr. Givrillian, your rescue was quite precipitous."

[T'lana]

"Aye Captain." Stated T'lana.

T'lana piloted the Kelata through the what remained of the space doors of Avalon Space Station and headed towards the Gallifreyan vessel Radiant Thunder.

Remote activating the hangar doors of the Radiant Thunder wasn't easy, but eventually the Kelata's computer and the computer on board the Gallifreyan vessel started talking to each other with a modicum of understanding.
The Kelata was brought into the Radiant Thunder and docked into a birth.

T'lana activated the embarkation ramp and exited the Vulcan Stealth Ship, making her way to engineering using the LCARS designed help stations.
The Radiant Thunder was indeed a marvelous feat of engineering, even what looked like turbolifts were actually entangled teleporters that instead of matter-energy conversion, used a form of 4th dimensional transportation. Not unlike the the Tesseract Field Generators T'lana built inot the Kelata.

Once in engineering, T'lana made her way to the central console that faced the Hyperdimensional Oscillator, a highly advanced form of a Quantum Induction Core and Quantum Slipstream Drive, in one.
The LCARS system made figuring out how to work the engines quite easy. A hum like a soft jet-engine noise, reverberated through the Radiant Thunder as the engines came online.
The display written in Vulcan, or what appeared to be as most of the user interface systems were telepathic, read:

[T'lana]

OOC: FYI, I am posting this here to make sure people don't get upset with what I am posting. The starship representing a Gallifreyan vessel in the databank is a White Star Battle Cruiser from Babylon 5, so I am going by that design when posting for the Radiant Thunder. Except for the FTL and the translocation chambers of course, but a modicum of creative licensing should be allowed for.

[T'lana]

T'lana looked quizzically at Beta...

"Well I shall run a correction algorithm when this is all over then."

T'lana moved from the Science Station to Navigation and began programming the vessel with an attack flight plan, in accordance with the defense installations, planetary bases and Military vessels.

After she had finished, the Navigation system checked the data in relation to stellar cartography and uploaded it to the helm systems, the entire operation took but a nanosecond.

"Captain, I have loaded a flight plan to the helm and I have been studying up on the weapons systems.
The two Neutron Canons neutralize biological components and the crew of any vessel, the 4 Fusion canons work the same way a fusion reactor does by using Deuterium/Triterium as fuel which decays down to a helium isotope, that isotope is ionized by a laser and released as a electromagnetically encapsulated plasma bolt via an electrical discharge."

"The Quantum-Gravitic discharge beam canon is a different matter entirely."

"It utilizes quantum gravity to create quantum singularities along a particle matter stream, disrupting spacetime. The causal effect upon contact with objects of sufficient mass is quite devastating, causing matter to be reduced to it's constituent singular particles."

T'lana moved back to the Science Station and ran further scans on the star system and reading up more on the Radiant Thunder and her systems.

It seems that the Radiant Thunder is quite capable of much more than they thought, mainly in the main engines.
The Hyperdimensional Oscillator (Jump Engine for short), appears to constantly be connected to all dimensions in the universe including quantum realities and is similar to the Tesla effect, just on a more powerful and larger scale.

It's a simple matter of telling the Hyperdimensional Oscillator where to go via the navigation system and it decides the best way and form of travel to get there.

[T'lana]

"Mr. Tragare, chronitons or chronons as they are also known, are particles in direct relation to time.
So although it is true that Romulan cloaking fields and Borg transwarp coils emit chronitons, they are not in direct relation to them. Having said that though I commend you on your vigilance, but bare in mind not all is what it seems."

T'lana thought for a minute, knowing humans quite often need reassurance, she turned back to him and stated.

"Good suggestion though, well done."

[Taurik]

"Very well. Helm, increase speed to warp factor nine-point-seven."

Taurik returned to his seat, wanting to do something to get there faster, but knowing there was little he could do.

[Bran Tragare]

"full spread fore and aft tubes already loaded sir, have target lock and firing"

<tragare watches as the torpedoes speed towards the target just before they hit a bright flash comes fron the targeted ship>

"sir the torpedoes have hit major damage to thier shields down to 5% and thier weapons systems have went off line structural integrety  down to 50 %"

<suddenly a look of horror comes over his face,and he yells>

"sir two of are torepedoes went rogue they are headed back towards us"

<tragare works the controls,and watches as the phasers hit one torpedo but misses the last one>

[Holographic Officer Beta]

=^=Beta to Alexia=^=
"No, we're fine thank you, we were informed that it was you who was in need of assistance. We responded to a distress call sent out by the Evolution. They informed us of your situation.

[T'lana]

As the Rivendell neared the vortex, T'lana noted massive amounts of zero-point energy emanating from it.

"Mr. Sarpedon, bring the vessel within 500 meters and then come to an all stop."

[Taurik]

Taurik stepped over to Morgan, whom he now recognized as the man T'lana was with in the bar. "It has been some time, Mr. Freeman. Are you uninjured?"
